Rachel goes to New York to visit Jenny, so Adam holds a poker night with his friends. The gambling bug bites, and he spends the night at a casino with Ramona. Pete buys himself an MG to distract himself from Jo and Suggs. Jo later splits up with Suggs. David buys Karen a racehorse for her birthday without realising how expensive it is to keep. He hopes to recover some costs when it gets good odds at Chester, but it ends up going lame. At the races, Karen and Mark kiss. After "borrowing" Pete's car, Adam spends the night with a woman, who humiliates him at the races when he pretends to not know her.
