Eddie takes a crate of bananas that belong to Bill. While he is eating a banana, a giant tarantula comes out of the crate. It is a clockwork spider, but Eddie tells everyone he is dying from a bite. They all know better.

Eddie's birthday has arrived, but he's rather put out to find that Harold (Macmillan, naturally) hasn't sent him a card. Not until Bill turns up, that is.

Upon hearing of rumours that the establishment is haunted, Eddie takes up Bill's bet that he cannot spend a night alone at the club.

Eddie is jealous of the attention Bill is getting from Joan, and turns his eyes to Sandra from the barber shop. She just flirts with him to get him to do the stock taking. Bill shows up, and then the wives, ending the fling before it starts.

Bill gives Barbie tickets to go to Trinidad. Eddie uses the envelope to write a note, then throws it in the bin. He spends his morning going through the tip trying to find it. Meanwhile, the garbage man found them earlier, returned them, and Barbie has already gone. When Joan thinks Bill will wander, she makes him stay with them.

It's time for the club's annual holiday, and much to Eddie's objection, the boys and their families head off to Majorca. As usual, little goes in Eddie's favour, and he's soon behind bars - through no fault of his own!
