However, Cass doesn't really need help: she turns the fight round and singlehandedly overpowers Phyllis, Mary, Francis and Joan. She even punches Joan in the stomach and has her on the floor kicking her. Minnie stops the fight and warns Joan not to mention Cass if she feels she needs to report the incident... otherwise she'll tell Ann exactly what she saw. Alice tells Wally to complain to the Department if he doesn't like the way she runs the halfway house: he replies that he already has done. Joan keeps quiet about Cass and Minnie cleans Cass up so no-one will be able to tell she'd been in a fight. Cass tells Minnie she doesn't want to be top dog as people are trying to push her into it. Minnie tells her not to worry, as she'll look after the top dog problem. Judy squashes Minnie's suggestion that she should become top dog: Judy suggests that Minnie and Cass should team up and be top dog jointly. Ann arranges it so Lizzie can visit her family. Alice overhears Wally talking to the women at Driscoll about their grievances against her, though not the bit where he argues that they should do whatever Alice tells them. Paul tells Ann he's rented a shop for his photographic business. Meg goes to a restaurant with Marty, and is confronted in the powder room by Randi, who takes the opportunity to threaten Meg that she'll get back at her for ruining her cosy little setup. Jody asks for Alice's help over her husband, but Alice is unsympathetic to her and slaps Jody when she gets hysterical. Minnie is visited by her lawyer Terry, who is a graduate of her gang: he tells her the gang is carrying on just the same in her absence. Alice tells Wally she was a battered wife herself and lost patience with Jody: she promises to try to be more sympathetic. Joan accuses Sonia of underpaying her share and tells her that in future she wants to get all the takings and she'll give Sonia back her cut. Scott talks to Petra about her appeal. Sonia asks Bobbie to tape her conversations with Joan and pays her with grog. Lizzie arrives back at Wentworth after visiting her new family, with a new hairdo ){kind=small} courtesy of her granddaughter: she decides she doesn't fit in and won't visit again. Minnie catches Bobbie puking up and takes the rest of the booze to the rec room and dumps it in Sonia's lap. With backing from Cass, she forces Sonia to drink it all herself ){kind=small} .
