Life has not been a social whirl for Rodney. His friend Mickey Pearce had moved in on his latest girlfriend, Monica of the Fat Thighs. But for Del Boy, he finds another quick way to make some money when he spies a faulty Mark II Cortina that's being used as a part-exchange for a Vanden Plas in Boycie's used car lot. Del sells the Cortina to an Australian man for £199. Also, the Trotters get to house Boycie's E type Jaguar, a gift for his bit on the side, for a week in their garage. That night, Rodney decides to go out for a night on the town, with Del tagging along.
