S27·E93 Episode 2397 (Tue 4th Aug 1998)

Kathy is displaying all the business acumen of a seasoned tycoon. She's made an offer to buy out Eric but he's insisted on an independent valuer - who he's given a back-hander to - in return for placing a higher price on the business. But Kathy has double-guessed Eric and arranged for another firm of chartered surveyors to attend at the same time. Eric's man takes fright and leaves. With the licensing committee due to sit, Eric reveals to Marlon his final plan to hang onto his business. He's going to blame everything on Dee's departure and Marlon's shoddy running of his affairs while he was recovering! Chris and Zoe rumble that all is not well with Lady Tara.
