After being knocked out, an erratic Paul Hunt believes he has been the victim of a mugging, robbed of £1000, his deposit for a new house.

Paul is now under pressure at his new job as a double glazing salesman for tyrant Big Al, under pressure to care for his devoting father and under pressure to raise the money back, before his pregnant wife finds out.
