Joe is in a good mood as it is completion day on 3 Demdyke Row. It is Rachel's last day of school and she tries to persuade Annie to let her borrow her car. Annie tells her that she has to get good grades in her exams first. Zoe is preparing for her graduation, but there is no sign of Frank. Dolly is busy clearing up at Home Farm after Frank's drunken evening with his friends. Kim phones to see where Frank is and Dolly presumes that he has already set off. She then receives a call from a friend of Frank's, Terry Prince telling her to come and collect Frank from his hotel - he is hungover and realises that he has missed Zoe's graduation. Joe's solicitor phones and tells him that he has got squatters in 3 Demdyke Row and that this will hold up the sale. Dolly covers for Frank by telling Kim that his car has broken down somewhere on the borders. Joe storms round to 3 Demdyke Row and tells Archie to clear out.
