When a new flatmate moves in he sparks a chain of events that disrupts the already delicate balance of the house. Ruth returns from holiday in Thailand to find the temperature’s hotter at home. There's an intruder in the kitchen – Daniel's dodgy mate, Levi. Isobel's competitive streak clouds her judgement. Neru faces a hefty problem on the job, and Daniel deals with an important anniversary by hitting the town with Levi – bad idea. Fuelled by drugs he hurtles towards a risky sexual encounter.

Quotes

• Ruth: No nicking someone else's food from the fridge, but the beer is everyone's. Do your own dishes. No Prince music. Watching All Blacks tests is compulsory. No wine in a box. Loo paper doesn't grow on trees. No pets, no smoking, and no Tom Hanks movies except for Big and Splash.
