The episode starts in the Call Centre office with Frank and Betty at the beginning of their relationship, and both can’t keep their hands off each other. This annoys Barbara, Frank’s boss, who has a crush on Frank, and she has a pep talk to warn him off girls like Betty.
Later at work Frank is invited to a pregnant woman’s leaving party, but declines the offer as he barely knows her. This is seen as bad office etiquette and Betty becomes annoyed at Frank for being anti-social. Frank then refuses to give money to a girl at work who’s trying to raise money for charity, which again annoys Betty and Barbara as well. When Anton hears about this, he starts to goad Frank, which makes Frank donate £1 to a charity bucket man. Anton follows suit, but accidentally donates £2 instead of £1. He asks for the £1 back but the charity bucket man refuses, which leads to Anton wrestling him to the ground, demanding the money back.
Frank shrugs off Betty’s annoyance and plays football after work with Anton and his friends, an idea of Anton’s in another attempt to woo Nicola. Whilst playing football Frank has a bout of Norovirus, which leads to him being violently sick and then collapsing. At first Anton laughs hysterically before reacting in disbelief and then aggression when people suggest they should take him to the hospital.
In hospital Frank is quickly ushered out by the nurse as Anton accuses Frank of faking the illness and ruining his chances with Nicola. Once it’s revealed that Frank is actually quite ill, Anton runs away and leaves Frank to walk home by himself back to the flat. In the flat Frank wakes up to find Barbara on his bed and she starts talking to him seductively. Betty then visits Frank and acts very sympathetic towards his situation at first. However, this quickly changes as she finds that Frank forgot to add Xs on the end of the text when he was in the ambulance. They both argue and Betty swiftly leaves.
After Betty leaves Anton continually talks about her bisexuality and how she will probably get off with a man or woman at the work party. Frank, beset by jealousy and bed-ridden, decides to go to the woman’s leaving party, despite his obvious ill-health. Anton joins him as well.
At the leaving party Frank and Anton arrive, with Frank clearly unwell. He throws up all over the table and the pregnant woman’s leaving presents before passing out. Anton, Betty and Barbara then argue over who should look after Frank. Eventually Betty takes Frank away, as Anton tries, and fails, to get off with Frank’s female work colleagues.
Anton and Betty then take Frank back home and meet Nicola at the taxi rank, who gets in with them after an unsuccessful date with a random chav. In the taxi, everyone realises they don’t have enough money and Anton jumps out and runs back to the flat. The taxi driver tells them that if they can’t pay then Nicola and Betty have to snog each other to make up for the lack of a fare.
After the snog Nicola looks visibly turned on but Betty just shrugs it off and takes Frank inside. Nicola follows Frank and Betty into the flat and both find Anton panting after running away from the taxi. Nicola then starts kissing Anton and leads him into the bedroom to sex with him to prove that she’s straight after the kiss. Anton is gobsmacked and slightly confused but goes along with it anyway.
