Series 2, Episode 4 - Leaving on a Jet Plane

As performance-shy cocktail pianist Nigel Penny tries to pluck up what little courage he has to tell Rachel how he feels, events overtake him. Marco's dodgy meat-dealing on the dark web has gone awry and Stan suspiciously steps in to help by suggesting an elaborate ruse.
