David hires Donna, his lodger and the daughter of his best friend. While showing her round the office he discovers a doctored pornographic image of himself. Gareth, due to his covert operations skills, is told to catch the culprit.
Jennifer Taylor Clark visits from Head Office and wants to know what cutbacks David has made.
David, displaying a genius crucial in a managerial role, invents a warehouse employee called Julie Anderton that he has fired. Jennifer is impressed until a tour of the warehouse makes it clear that Julie鈥檚 existence was entirely fabricated.
Meanwhile Gareth鈥檚 investigations have revealed that the pornographic image was made on Tim鈥檚 computer.
In a show of authority for Jennifer鈥檚 benefit, and a last ditch effort to claw back his reputation, David reprimands Tim in front of the whole office.
So far so good. That is until he is told that the image is actually the work of his good friend Sales Rep. Chris Finch.
