Sam Mountjoy has unwittingly gained a new 'lodger' and he needs help. Unfortunately, the kind of 'help' he is looking for comes in at a cool £25,000 and it's up to Sam to find it. Meanwhile, Reen's already difficult marriage takes a turn for the worse with some very unexpected consequences for everyone involved.

Sam, who is suffering from anxiety, insomnia and nightmares, gets a phone call from his lawyer while Rajiv has probelms at home.

The Story picks up from where we last left it. The company is flourishing, but Sam is having nightmares about his old friend and business partner Dexter, who was last seen jumping off Blackfriars Bridge. His love life is still non-existent too.

Tina learns about Helen and moves out. Reen tells Sam she and her husband are trying to save their relationship. Sam gets caught in an explosion when Barry's mechanic brothers-in-law dump petrol down the toilet. Reen overhears Sam confessing his feelings for her. Phil is arrested and learns that he has been delivering drugs for Mr. Eugene. He agrees to wear a wire but Mr. Eugene reveals that he is untouchable because of the high-powered men who were at his party.

A new communications system causes problems at Cresta Cabs when Sam and Reen accidentally broadcast a private conversation to all cabs. Sam's partner Dexter returns from abroad after a breakdown caused by his unfaithful wife Tina.

Cresta Cabs is short of drivers, but Dexter has not returned to work yet. He wrongly suspects Tina of being unfaithful again and gets Cambridge to destroy an expensive painting he bought her, not realising that Cambridge is in someone else's house.

Sam makes the arrangements for Dexter's funeral, but things do not go as planned. Henry drives a pregnant woman to the hospital and is mistaken for the baby's father.

Baz finally connects with one of his dates, but he learns that Andre is the father of her son. Rajiv is mugged in his minicab and is afraid to return to work. Sam asks for Rajiv's help with the company accounts and learns that Dexter embezzled large amounts of money.
