The story involves an Underworld client called Frank in an obvious rewrite to get round Kym Marsh's exit. They're saying that Maria will take the job as Carla's assistant and the new client, Frank clearly fancies her. Carla sends Maria to his house to close a deal (a brand new assistant? Seriously?) and he tells her that if she wants the order she has to "be nice" to him. Apparently we will be left guessing as to what happens but if I know Maria, she'll fight him off and run away.
This is clearly a storyline that should have featured Michelle as she's been Carla's assistant for a few months and at least would have had a little experience with clients and, in fact, just before Michelle goes off our screens (for Kym Marsh's maternity leave), this Frank will be seen giving her the glad eye. Ah well, such things are necessary under the circumstances. You'd never see that happening to Carla. She'd have his rude bits nipped off and served to him on a platter if he tried it with her!
