Caralyn arrives home with a kitten, but his presence causes a little upset between the flatmates. Even more upset, however, is Charlie; his ex-wife has been gloating about her good fortune and wonderful relationship.

Ruth has married and moved out; new flatmate Frankie's aspirations of supermodel status lead her to consider breast reduction surgery. Meanwhile, Nick - whose yacht-invading antics once lead Leigh to a police cell - has turned up again and is after her attention.

Caralyn is distraught to find that she has - literally - killed a man with sex. Charlie's paranoid as the man was only his age, and Frankie's attitude to Leigh and Nick's relationship is less than positive.
