After the events of the previous episodes, Sharon is complaining about Dorien being her new manager. After everyone leaves, Marcie reveals to Tracey that her libido (which Tracey thinks refers to an Italian brand) has faded. Tracey concludes that it's because they don't have any space, so she decides to give Poppy the box room, much to Sharon's annoyance.
Tracey and Sharon end up on the couch and a pump up bed downstairs respectively. On the bright side, the sex lives of Garth and Marcie have picked up. When Travis and his friends come in, Sharon tries going up into the attic to sleep, but finds something which could change everything - £49,500 of cash in a bin bag.
The family considers what to do with the money, not being sure exactly where the money came from. Tracey leaves it for now whilst she considers what to do with it. Meanwhile, Sharon takes some of the money and takes it with her to her job. However, she claims to have swapped it with the money in the till. Dorien reveals that the founder (a man named Barry Quid) wants her to take on an upmarket branch elsewhere. However, Garth reveals that the money wasn't Darryl's - he was stashing it for these two brothers. Sharon thinks she's in trouble - until Dorien reveals that they don't have any real cameras - just dummy ones. Luckily for Sharon and Tracey, Poppy doesn't like sleeping on her own, so they get the box room back.
