Mick finds himself in the spotlight, and Azra proves to be correct.
Akram鈥檚 enthusiasm for helping with the fete begins to backfire. Azra has little sympathy for his pressed schedule, and when he asks her to cover a meeting for him while he handles a plumbing emergency, she鈥檚 unimpressed. Grudgingly she capitulates and attends the meeting, and despite her insistence she鈥檚 there merely as a scribe, Lynda ropes her into contributing suggestions for a big idea. When Azra floats the idea of a traditional fete, Lynda seizes on it. Akram arrives just in time to be handed a growing list of tasks鈥攊ncluding gauging public opinion and securing sponsorship.
Tracy鈥檚 astounded to hear Neil鈥檚 invited Martyn Gibson to her birthday party, declaring it would be a disaster. Jazzer assures her Martyn declined, but reluctantly admits he himself left the door open in case Martyn found himself free. Tracy now doesn鈥檛 know where things stand. She鈥檒l have to tidy the house, and they鈥檒l need to spill into the garden for more room. When Jazzer protests the garden鈥檚 a tip, Tracy instructs him to do some weeding. She鈥檚 initially impressed with his idea for live music, until she realises he means Dross. For Tracy this is a step too far.
Kenton considers security options at the Bull. When his first choice of staffing is unavailable, Mick volunteers his services. He can start tonight. However his over-zealous approach almost scares Jazzer away, and Kenton suggests being unobtrusive and mingling with customers might be more effective than frisking them. Mick just needs to watch and listen.
