Rhys tells Suzanne he's got a surprise planned, a romantic dinner for her and Neville. Suzanne's reluctant, but doesn't want to disappoint Rhys. However, Neville's still demanding about his bad back, and Suzanne feels jealous, knowing Darren's with Cindy. The night is a disaster. Also; Cindy's determined to increase profits before Tony returns home. Meanwhile, Ste tells Elliot his education isn't worth anything in the real world.
