Having popped into Susan's flat and discovered Sally nude in the kitchen and in need of some reassurance as to her attractiveness, things suddenly get very awkward for Steve. Meanwhile, Susan's on a drive to pick new furniture for her and Steve's flat.

Susan's latest project is to choose some furniture for the flat that she and Steve will share together. Against the backdrop of selecting fabrics, the truth slowly emerges about a deep mystery: why Steve and Sally have suddenly started acting so strangely.

Steve went to Susan's flat unannounced and saw Sally emerging from the shower. That was a forgivable accident - but why did Sally then remove the towel and ask Steve whether he found her attractive? Her excuse takes everyone by surprise: she needed reassurance because she'd just been to bed with Patrick. And for the first time ever, Junior Patrick had failed to jump to attention.
