Ray's got a foolproof plan to raise his own profile and raise a shedload of cash for charity - unfortunately, he hadn't counted on Mary. Meanwhile, Sandy's been approached to become a model.

Further details

Ray's excited about his latest money making scheme, a guess the balls competition, but he's determined nobody is going to get the correct guess.

Meanwhile, Sandy thinks she's the next big thing when a shopping precinct photographer convinces she has "it"; though Ray has his doubts about the photographer's credibility.
