Rita looks over a Cortina which Mr Heslop is selling. Fred tests all the pies on sale at the Rovers. Rita thinks £1,900 is too much for the Cortina. Mr Heslop tells her that he needs the money for his wife's operation. Fred orders pies from Coward's. Betty warns him that they're third-rate pies. He needs to use cheaper pies as he wants to include mushy peas and gravy. Brian sees Heslop trying to sell Rita the car and recognises him as a crooked dealer.
