Donna brings Alf his tea in bed and flatters him about his maturity. Len does some plumbing work at the Rovers which prevents Stan from getting a clean bucket of water. He's depressed to hear the price of beer is going up. Alf enjoys a slap-up breakfast made by Donna. She tells him she can't take his money for the hairdressing business but is going to go to a moneylender instead. He insists she takes it from him or he'll be offended. Emily looks after the corner shop whilst Blanche goes to Majorca for a holiday. Ken tells her that he's not going to be volunteering from now onwards, looking after his own needs instead. Hilda upsets Emily when she complains about rising prices in the shop and hints that they don't pay their window-cleaning bills promptly. Mavis has a week off and agrees to help out in the shop for some holiday money, earning her what The Kabin pays her plus £2. Alf fusses round Donna.
