Carol is worried that she will be accused of indiscretions with Mr Fletcher and so she makes a play for Rex to cover her tracks. Rex thinks she is serious and the rumours reach Susan - she disguises herself in order to visit the office to try and catch her husband at it. Unfortunately for all, so does Jim - Carol's boyfriend!
