Ben looking for Mel's website
Ben soon discovers that Susan has also seen Mel, causing them to argue and sleep separately. They then have to reassure Michael that they are not going to divorce.
Meanwhile Janey, who had taken an instant liking to Mel, says she will not see him again after he treated her like a child. Nick meets Isabelle, a French swimwear model, on the Internet. Ben bets him £50 she is not who she says she is, and so Nick invites her round. Michael "rebels" by buying himself a rabbit called Hannibal.
Who is Isabelle and is she who she says she is? How long will Hannibal last with the Harpers?
