Harry organises a charity ball with a dodgy character who runs off with all the money, leaving Harry to face an investigative journalist's cameras; he is forced into promising to replace the enire sum.

Rocky helps uncover the real leak, and Boon re-establishes relations with Margaret.

In the end, Boon does so well at both cases that she asks him to be her partner.
