Mark decides that Jeremy needs a job, because he is behind with his rent, so he gets him a job application for JLB Finance. Mark then goes to work to carry on his flirtation with Sophie via post-it notes cartoons.

That evening Mark makes a kak-handed phone call to Sophie. Jeremy turns up for his interview and tries to come across as an 'unemployable freak' which helps him achieve his aim of not getting the job.

Mark experiences further awkwardness with Sophie having to disown the previous night's phone call saying that Jeremy sometimes makes him say things 'with a breadknife'.
