Further details
Joe keeps receiving misdirected post from the fetish shop across the road. But Mimi, his ex, has time on her hands and when she visits Joe she cannot keep her prying fingers from that intriguing package...
Meanwhile Lucy has a plan to steal a chicken. Her new hero is Mark Zuckerberg who says that eating meat is not immoral if you capture your own dinner. Lucy always figured there must be an ethical way of eating that did not involve putting Quorn in her mouth. All she needs to do is convince her brother Tom that they are on a mission to say the chicken from the cruelty of the battery farm...
