Ill Behaviour

Joel's divorce brings him a $2 million settlement and reunites him with his best friends from Sixth Form - New Age Charlie and IT nerd Tess. Charlie in particular is a crutch for Joel and gets him dating again. On his first date he meets the sexy and unpredictable doctor, Nadia.

Joel's plan to persuade Charlie to take chemotherapy has so far failed, so refusing to give up, Joel uses his 'dirty divorce money' to rent a remote country house and buy black market chemotherapy drugs.

After Charlie's attempted escape, Joel and Tess decide they need to keep a closer eye on him. Tess is tracking the story of Charlie's disappearance on the web as the police launch an appeal. The news of his cancer diagnosis has leaked; the most popular theory is suicide. Good news for Joel and Tess, terrible news for his wife Kira and the kids.

Joel continues his visits to Kira, and whilst comforting her he finds himself enjoying taking on Charlie's role in this ready-made family. Meanwhile, back at the house, Nadia is drawn into increasingly frank and intimate chats with Charlie whose 'enlightened spiritual guru' act convinces her to try to clean up.

After Charlie's second escape attempt is thwarted, Joel and Tess decide to secure him behind bars in the cellar of the house. With Nadia gone, Joel is increasingly spiralling out of control, drowning in an unhealthy concoction of drink, drugs and self-pity.

Joel is increasingly spiralling out of control, drowning in an unhealthy concoction of drink, drugs and self-pity. Tess tells Joel to get a grip and focus on what they're there for - to cure Charlie. However, in his hungover state, Joel smashes the final vial of chemo.
