Hardacre’s advertising agency is shaken when one of their latest ads is ridiculed by industry bible Campaign. Copywriter Joe Starling (Mathew Baynton) takes the news especially hard, spiralling into depression.

Amanda (Josie Lawrence) and Hardacre (Nigel Havers) compete to pull Joe out of his funk, and prove to the other that they are the more gifted mentor. Meanwhile Teddy (Rasmus Hardiker) has worries of his own, as he attempts to care for a new pet.
