Alison and Mike are forced to cosy up to Barclay if their plan to sell some land to the golf consortium is going to work. Elsewhere, Alison is involved in a silent negotiation of her own – she has designs on Lady Button's bedroom but can't quite muster the courage to ask her outright if she would consider relocating. The ghosts become fixated on solving the mystery of Kitty's death.

Robin has an epiphany that has a far-reaching impact on the rest of the ghosts, who each struggle to believe his prediction. Alison suggests a spontaneous night out with Mike, just like the old days! They try to get the old gang together but with such short notice, only Obi and his new girlfriend Brenda are free. Despite Alison's efforts to plan the best night ever, the evening doesn't quite meet her expectations, and the couple are left pondering how much their lives are changing.
