Presumably the two named ones are these two | Spike tells Rita of her plan to rig up an alarm in her cell so she can attract attention if anyone tries to harm her. Tommy takes Merle some food and hears about her on the radio. Lorelei has a quick word with Rita and apologises for messing up her attempt to get Craven. Tommy plays truant from school to spend the day with Merle. Spider fails to persuade Kath to sell booze and drugs and tells her if she won't agree she'll do it on her own. Alice asks Spider to try out the press, but it has been fixed and she can't get the lid up again. Spike fixes the alarm so that Rita can set it off from her cell. Craven produces a crossbow confiscated at Blackmoor: Joan lets him know she is unhappy with his plan to kill Rita with it even when he says he intends to frame someone (anyone) else for it. Marty catches Spike in the boiler room, so she has to explain the purpose of the alarm. Alice tells Rita she can set the alarm by putting something metallic across the taps in her cell. Meg disturbs Craven outside Rita's cell as he is about to use the crossbow. Joan questions Kath about the sabotage campaign and won't settle for her insistence that it is nothing to do with her. Lorelei is ordered by Craven to find out who's behind the sabotage, and Alice tells her about the alarm and other sabotage plans. When forced by Craven she tells him about the stink bombs planned for the workshop but keeps the information about the alarm to herself. Spider brags to Kath that she's getting some booze and pills in through the delivery truck. Tommy brings Merle into the house while his parents are away at work. Craven tells Joan she has decided to use the stink bombs as cover for his attack on Rita. Spike tells Marty her story: she was framed for the murder of her partner in manufacturing amphetamines.
