When a smooth-talking businessman makes an offer for the business, Desmond considers selling up and retiring in luxury to Guyana.

The plans of Michael, Desmond's eldest son, for expanding the business don't go down too well, as Desmond begins to feel somewhat redundant.

Shirley is feeling overworked and overweight, but her lively big sister Susu is coming all the way from Jamaica to see her and Desmond hopes that this might cheer her up.

There's disappointment at Desmond's barber shop when Porkpie can't bring himself to join in the birthday celebrations for Shirley.

Gloria is excited by the prospect of her date with an up-and-coming politician, but Desmond and Shirley get some sad news about their old friend Sweetsticks.
