Extended Summary

Fisher talks to Emma, Ailsa and Alf of Emma’s attack to Vicki. Fisher explained that Emma could be charged for assault. Alf is on Emma’s side. Fisher says he is not taking anyone’s side. Emma says she only got a bit rough with Vicki to get her to tell the truth about Grant. Emma says she won’t touch Vicki again.

Lance talks to Tom. He wonders where Martin is since he moved out a while ago when Maz told him to move out. Tom hasn’t seen him around either.

Mullet comes along and Sally bosses him around as she thinks he will lose interest in her if she does that. He asks her to help him with homework. Sally thinks that might be the only reason why he hangs around her so she gets angry!

Emma, Viv and Steven give Vicki a hard time at school.

Fisher takes over Grant’s class since he is suspended due to Vicki’s accusations.

A few other school students ignore Vicki to make her feel miserable and it works. Vicki gets very fed up with it after a while.

Alf brags to Tom about the big crab he is feeding to increase even more in size. Alf calls the crab “Claws”.

Alf feed his crab again in the cage in the water where he keeps the crab. Mullet is down there fishing. They talk. He gives Mullet advice not to give up on Sally.

Martin is at Lance’s place when Lance walks in and sees him. Lance is very surprised. Martin packs more of his stuff. Lance tells him to stay for a few days at least.

Mullet meets Sally in Diner while she talks to Steven and Viv. Sally is grumpy at him.

In the Diner, Emma is angry with Vicki and throws a full milkshake over her!

Lance tells Marilyn that Martin will stay for a few days. Marilyn is angry and has a go at Martin and Lance.

Sally forgives Mullet after he said that he really likes her and that he is not hanging around her to get help with his homework.

Mullet is out fishing and Sally is watching. Tom is out for a walk.

Due to a misunderstanding over what Martin said earlier (that he won’t be around for long) and a phone call from a doctor for Martin, Lance and Marilyn now get the crazy idea that Martin is dying!
