When he arrives, Kat’s waiting at a table set for a romantic dinner for two; Kim’s giving them a free meal, with Ray cooking, if they spread the word about how great the B&B is. Over dinner Alfie tells Kat the Branning brothers know she pawned her mother’s ring. Denise shows Kim an unfavourable newspaper article about the B&B. Kim hasn’t told Kat everything about her run in with Environmental Health and begs Ray not to tell Alfie and Kat the truth. The meal’s a success - until Alfie spots a mouse. Back at the Vic Alfie thanks Kat, it’s been a perfect night. Kat finds an envelope pinned to the kitchen noticeboard with her mother’s ring inside.
