Lee is insufferably smug when he wins a thousand pounds in a writing competition. But when a journalist turns up, she is expecting to meet a disabled author.

Over-excited by the appearance of a lesbian couple in their building, Lee and Tim ask them over for dinner, little realising that their adolescent attempt to get their jollies will backfire when Lucy discovers a side to herself that she never knew existed.

Lee and Tim organise a birthday party for Lucy, but when she arrives arm-in-arm with another man, Lee makes it his mission to somehow get rid of him without a fuss.

Lucy brands Lee and Tim cowards when they refuse to go upstairs and confront a new neighbour about the noise, causing both men to take drastic action.

Lucy has to make an important speech at a recruitment conference, and has nobody to help her write it. Sensing an opportunity to impress her, Lee offers his services.

Lee is horrified when he hears that Lucy is considering marriage to Pavlov, a mechanic from the old Eastern bloc, just so that he can stay in the country.

Lee's father turns up unannounced. This is the man who walked out of the family home when Lee was four and never paid his maintenance.
