Wade learns from Brick how to indulge steady girls on going out and yet make the best of it for men. When George's parents pay him a surprise visit, father Harold Tucker is willing to accept he's with Tansy now, but mother wants his future restored in the big city, so she tricks him and Zoe, on a double date on his house-boat with Wade, which ends in multiple wreckage. Annabeth is instantly charmed by the British accent of newcomer Oliver Kent, who actually suffers from bizarre 'linguistic' syndrome but soon finds being cured worse sufferance.
