Episode summary[]

Sales figures are down and Mr Rumbold decides to hold a class in salesmanship after hours. The staff are not happy with staying at work in their own time, especially Mr Lucas, who has asked Miss Brahms to come to the pictures with him.

Mr Rumbold can't quite seem to make his point, and when Young Mr Grace pops in Mr Lucas shows him a remarkable example of salesmanship, proving to his superiors that he might not be such a hopeless salesman after all.
