Tom Latimer is newly divorced and just settling into his new bachelor flat, when his father announces his intention to separate from his mother and asks to move in with him for a while.
Tom has a date with Toby's receptionist Madeleine. He has asked her to the flat for an evening he knows his father will be spending away from home. But with both of them expecting Toby to come home any minute, the date doesn't go quite as expected.
