After getting negative feedback from Jen concerning his Web show on board games, Moss is encouraged by Douglas to wear women's trousers to boost his confidence. Jen and Roy visit the coffee shop, but Roy's presence disracts Jen's barista and she is served bad coffee. Meanwhile, Roy places a complaint on a Post-It note at the counter the small barista is working and leaves with Jen. When she tosses the coffee aside, she splashes it on a homeless woman, while the short-stature barista confronts Roy and is then hit by a van with breasts, a promotion backed by Douglas. A video of Jen and Roy's behaviour soon goes viral and reveals their identity. Jen and Roy turn to Moss, who makes his pepper spray into a useful product, but it backfires during a demonstration. Elsewhere, Douglas participates in The Secret Millionaire and tries to relate with some youths, but goes on the run from the police after serving them alcohol. Before going into hiding in the IT department, he asks Jen, Roy, and Moss to take over the company until the matter "settles down". The end credits sequence shows how Reynholm Industries is revolutionised with the former IT trio in charge. |LineColor = 011A54}}|}
