Dean's nose is put out of joint when Nikki moves into the flat and takes over organising Lee's birthday party. Lee has been enjoying 'builder's perks' with posh client Mrs Bryce-D'Souza and is horrified when she appears at the party.

Lee broods over the fact that Dean is now dating Mrs Bryce-D'Souza, thus breaking the unwritten rule. The flat is getting increasingly cramped, forcing Dean to make a rash decision that could split Lee and Nikki apart.

The builders carry out their first ever job for a gay couple. Dean prepares to premiere his poetry at the arts club. Nikki and Mrs Bryce-D'Souza start to develop an unlikely friendship.

Lee loses both financially and emotionally on a night out at the races, Dean meets someone that could change his life and booze and frayed emotions bring an end to a tumultuous day.

When the stags and hens end up a the same nightclub all of the secrets, lies and truths are revealed. Will life ever be the same again, especially for Lee and Dean?
