In this episode.....
Reggie asks C.J. for a start-up loan to establish his shop Grot.
C.J. thinks it's hush money to keep quiet about his having Elizabeth back to his house, and lends it to him.
Grot sells highly unusual and often impractical things but people buy them, either because they are unique,such as square hula hoops,which in fact become a school craze, or as presents for relatives they dislike, like Tom's sprout wine.
Grot becomes a huge success and Reggie soon has the money to repay the loan.
However,when he returns to Sunshine Desserts to see C.J, he finds things have changed.
Joan is now married to his former colleague Tony, and the firm is on the verge of collapse.
Wonderful comedy and the start of the "Grot" storyline, which is highly inventive and amusing.

Upscaled resolution to 720p.
