As an anniversary treat, Gena has booked a private performance by Dolichovsky, Malcolm's favourite actor - Lloyd is entrusted with preparing the apple for the snail's arrival, but Dolichovsky proves to be far more demanding than expected.

After his inattention causes a mid-flight collision with Polly, Lloyd must attend a 'flight awareness' course run by Molly - if he refuses, he risks being grounded and will therefore have to walk everywhere!

Having written a book on the subject, Gena agrees to train Lloyd in how to survive outdoors, but Lloyd is disappointed to discover that all the training is to take place indoors.
