Summary
August 15th, 1997, was the last day that Stuart worked at Uncle Norm’s Organ Emporium, a shop he’d worked at since he was 16. On that day, a Vauxhall Astra was driven through the front window and many of the keyboards were stolen. Stuart lost one of his teeth when the ceiling fell on him, and then he was kidnapped by the robber. To Norm, it made sense to put blame on Stuart for the break-in and theft, as Stuart had been manning the shop by himself when it happened and hadn't been present to defend himself afterwards. Stuart was subsequently fired. August 15th, 1997, was a strong contender for the worst day in Stuart’s life.

Summary
Truthfully, Richie didn't actually have a problem with girls. When he was younger, he used to resent them because he didn't understand their appeal. When he was even younger, most of his friends were girls, but he grew out of that by age six. Chasing after girls always seemed like a major waste of time, and he'd simply thought he was better than other boys for not getting braindead around girls. It was incredibly frustrating, though, watching his friends get distracted by them over and over. He’d only learned to live with it once he figured out that he's the weird one, not them. So he didn't have a problem with girls as a whole. Some of them— a lot of them— were great, actually. Like Bev. He really only had problems with girls for valid reasons or when Eddie liked one of them.
