When Sharon wrecks Tracey's bed, it is the final straw. She promises to get a job and make a contribution - especially with Tracey's baby on the way. A stint in an abattoir ends when she is sacked for stealing meat, but Dorien is looking for a cleaner.

Tracey and Sharon hit on a name for their new cleaning business: 'Maids of Ongar'. After a strenuous day's work though Sharon begins to feel ill.

The girls are short of money, and go to see bank manager Martin Mann. But they suffer a bout of giggles after Tracey calls him 'Mr Mann', and he refuses to lend to the wives of bank robbers - particularly as he was the bank manager Darryl and Chris robbed.

Sharon and Tracey attend a school reunion. Margie is still a bully, and Poxy Loxy is as leery as ever - though he does give Tracey a perfect chance to play a wicked prank. Meanwhile, Dorien meets someone from the past.

Tracey receives an endowment policy for Garth in the post, and finds herself facing a dilemma—should she hand the money over or take Sharon's advice and squander it on herself?
