Catherine wants to go on a hotel inspectors' course but Leonard won't recommend her. He thinks she's ""getting ideas above her station"". Leonard gets a letter from Canada.

Leonard has been invited to give a talk on ""The Motorist And The Law"" to the Women's Institute. He expects the AA men to attend, but they all claim to have ""prior engagements"". Most of the AA men are doing a bit of ""moonlighting"" to earn extra cash. Harry, for example, is running a fresh fish delivery service and Mr Bannerman is selling his wife's homemade preserves. Harry is delivering a box of live crabs to Joyce's cafe when he almost bumps into Leonard. He hides the box in Leonard's van. The crabs escape into the van and Harry has a job to recover them.

It's the time of the Cuban Missile Crisis and everyone is worrying about the possibility of nuclear war. Harry is planning a weekend away with Catherine. He's worried that any 'hostilities' will interfere with his plans. Leonard gives the AA men a talk on surviving a nuclear attack. He suggests that each of the men should protect himself by turning up his collar and putting a brown paper bag over his head. Leonard misunderstands a phone call and becomes convinced that a nuclear war has started. He tells Harry to take Catherine down into the cellar while he goes to get Joyce. She's preparing a meal when Leonard bursts in and carries her off to the old air-raid shelter in the garden. The house blows up because Joyce had not had chance to light the gas in the oven. Leonard spends the night with Joyce, while Harry and Catherine sleep together in the cellar. Next morning, Joyce is angry with Leonard when she discovers that there has not, in fact, been a nuclear attack.
