Me and My Girl

Leaving on a Jet Plane (2x5)

:

Simon has been offerd a high-paid job in California. Derek hears of this through his friend Fergus who offers to take Simon's place in the business when he leaves. Derek - furious with Simon for not telling him about California - agrees. Simon is also angry when he sees Fergus measuring his space in the office and realises that Derek wants to get rid of him. Because of this, Simon accepts the job.Samantha wants to go to California but does not want to leave Maddie, the housekeeper, unemployed. She has an idea that Maddie will be Derek's housekeeper and his wife Muriel can work with Derek in the office. Derek is horrified at the thought of working all day every day with his wife and begs Simon to stay. Simon - delighted that Derek is begging him to stay - agrees and foregoes the job in America. Fergus then arrives with a huge, antique desk, which he installs in Simon's office.
