Lily adopts a new look and personality to fit in at Burke Hill University, but it gets awkward when she can’t maintain the lie with her new flatmates Frankie, Seb, and Samson.
Desperate to be popular, Lily plans a 90s night with the help of Frankie – but things go from disastrous to catastrophic to worse-than-a-calamity quite quickly!
Lily spends the day in character as a Russian aristocrat, Seb tries to live on £5, Frankie is determined to wear too-small boots, Jeff breaks Samson’s invention and Josh gets mad.
Who ends up in hot sauce? Is it Josh and his quest for global domination? Lily’s inability to keep a secret? Seb’s disastrous efforts to impress Frankie? Or Jeff’s online dating?
Inspired by hit daytime tv shows, Lily plays cupid for Samson and Ulrika, Seb helps Jeff surprise Meg with an office makeover and Frankie creates an art therapy trail.
Lily is desperate to attend an audition even though she doesn’t have an agent or know what the role is for, and Frankie is keen to prove herself as an artist and businesswoman.
How’s this for awkward? Josh stuns Lily by declaring they fancy one another, Frankie has to dump six dates including Seb, and Samson and Jeff are banned from attending the Ball.
