Further details
Thermoman's repeated visits to the health centre to save Janet from a wasp sting or a spider are baffling patients and staff. Piers thinks he's made a new celebrity friend and invites him to be guest of honour at the fund-raising party he has organised to boost his own public image. Janet's parents insist both George and Janet attend the party so that George can personally thank Thermoman for saving Janet from falling into the Grand Canyon. Not easy, given that George is Thermoman. George hatches a cunning plan which involves him meeting Thermoman in the toilets, but the fake rendezvous doesn't quite go as planned.
