Making Ends Meet is the second episode of The Royle Family.
The Royles are all seated around the table while Jim calls for his dinner and Barbara brings the final plates in. She then starts up a conversation about the bakery and Jim wonders why Barbara is telling him about it. Denise turns around to look at the telly and starts to talk about Family Fortunes.
Denise and Barbara then start talking about her married life and what she will cook except for chips, a possible option being pasta which sparks another My Arse! Denise starts discussing what she would be putting on the wedding list, bringing up the subject of Dave's dad having to pay nothing because he is on a disability allowance which causes a row because Jim has to pay for everything for the wedding.
Jim takes over from Denise on eating the fat off her chop and Barbara asks her what days she would be coming round for her dinner, again sparking outrage in Jim when she confirms about four days a week.
Jim continues to eat the chop until their is nothing left on it and Barbara then collects in the plates and Barbara goes to get the Apple Pie. After bringing in the plates, Antony starts straight away and finishes it within a minute, causing Jim to consider whether he has worms.
Jim then goes and sits down in his chair and is closely followed by the others while Antony collects and washes the plates and is later told to mash the tea while Jim fiddles with his jeans and this causes Denise to remark and he complains about 50p worth of his underpants being stuck up his arse.
Barbara starts talking about the people in the bakery and soon after Denise's attention is soon drawn back to the telly and she has to explain twice because they didn't listen the first time.
