Mark is 'mugged' by some teenagers on the way home, which immediately distracts him from everything else, including Sophie. Jeremy, ready to break up with his girlfriend, is kept interested by the promise of living out sexual fantasies. Meanwhile, the love of Jeremy's life is in town, but not single.
There's something about Merry . . . 'Canadian Merry' as they call her. After she gives away her pub and makes a pass at Mark, they suspect that she has gone 'mental'. Both Jeremy and Super Hans want the pub and don't really care about her, whereas Mark is concerned and calls the authorities. Sophie and Mark are finally a couple, but there may still be some problems with the fledgling relationship.
When Jeremy finds out Mark is going to be away on a business trip to Frankfurt, he plans a 'shroom party'. When Mark turns up at home again, only an hour after leaving, Jeremy is in panic mode, and tries anything possible to keep the party on by dealing with Mark.
Mark's sister, Sarah, is in a state after she breaks up with her husband. Jeremy sees a golden opportunity to capitalize on a woman on the rebound, but Mark is livid about the idea. Meanwhile, Mark and Big Suze start spending some time together, and Jeremy returns the animosity to Mark.
Mark is caught between a rock and a hard place when Alan asks him to talk to Sophie about her increasingly lax behaviour at work. Thing is, she wants to pop 'round his place then call in sick the next day. Jeremy, meanwhile, is called for jury duty, but secretly commits contempt of court by meeting the defendant.
Mark has saved up coupons for a cheap four star hotel room, and he wants to take Sophie there for a magical weekend in which he will propose. He has so many coupons, in fact, that Jeremy is able to get a room as well; but unable to convince Big Suze to accompany him, he invites Super Hans, who has just decided to give up all drugs and alcohol cold turkey. Problems start for Mark when he has no 'perfect moment' to propose; and similarly, Jeremy is in trouble when Big Suze has a change of heart.
