Pete proposes to Dolores

Wayne asks Pete to stay away from Lucy. However, Pete defends himself against Lucy's allegations, claiming that this is her manipulative agenda at work. Later, Dolores is pleasantly surprised when she finds that Pete has organised a day out for the two of them. Pete feels reassured by Dolores's warmth towards him, and makes a call to a jewellery shop in town about rings.

Soon afterwards, Lucy comes home pretending to have a headache. Dolores steps out to get painkillers for her, and Lucy takes the opportunity to threaten Pete that if he turns Dolores against her, he'll regret it. When Dolores returns, Lucy pretends to feel faint and Dolores decides she must stay home to look after Lucy. Lucy then continues her campaign to make Wayne think Pete is a work-shy gold-digger. However, Pete finds his mettle and proposes to Dolores on bended knee. Dolores accepts and rejoices.

Meanwhile, when Rachel meets Graham, she is cool to him but she still doesn't know that he slept with Charlotte. Soon afterwards, Charlotte tells Rachel that she went home with a guy last night and that she saw Graham chatting up some other girl. Later, Charlotte gets pressure from Graham not to reveal what happened. Graham doesn't exactly let Charlotte down easily when he tells her they're finished, and he'd rather Rachel didn't find out.

Elsewhere, Decco attempts to drum up business for Chariot, while Sash and Neil have taken their relationship to the next level, but can straight-laced Sash handle Neil's party lifestyle.
