Desperate for money, Gareth has taken up Lilly's offer to do jobs for her and Dot to get ready for the party. He repairs their oven and helps move furniture for them. He does a morning's work. He wants paying for his efforts. He makes a few hints that he will pay a few debts then move on, hoping for money from Dot and Lilly. They give him a bag of fruit, cake, beer and sandwiches. Gareth panics, as he knows this is all he is getting from them. Dot offers him £10. Gareth feels insulted, as he owes £1000 to 2 people, and throws the bag of goodies on the floor. Dot orders him to leave, and Gareth storms out. Later on, Mick complains about the noise during the party, as he needs his sleep.
