Either he marries Madge Cartwright, the heiress to a soap dynasty and a potentially wealthy woman, or he will have to go and work in the family's rubber factory. Teddy, who prefers servant girls to his own class, would rather be dating Madge's maid Rose than Madge herself but George calls his bluff and sends him to the factory. Alf, meanwhile, has found a load of money under Lady Lavender's bed and aims to get his hands on it. - Money Talks
