- Zoe, a radio fan of his, is delighted to meet blind presenter Jake Osbourne when someone called his show claiming to plan to kill him; Jake clearly doesn't trust the police, so Zoe suggests him to hire her and Dan- after questioning her knowledge of his stories, he agrees. His recent radio shows attacked various companies, notably Benjamin Kasdan's, which according to Jake manipulated his own stock value and stole from his let-down employees, so Zoe pretends to be his interior designer. On the home-front, cousin Cliff is making a video of Zoe's life; Taylor is septic whether one person can take on a big company, let alone by a bake-and-sale as Zoe organizes for the duped employees. Charlotte Timms, the caller, is in hospital- her car was crushed; Zoe is convinced someone doctored it to prevent her alleged proof on tape being aired. In the studio Zoe finds Jake's housekeeper Mrs. Markov knocked unconscious, according to her by two masked men- every tape of the radio studio is wiped. Zoe presses him to do the Osbourne Hour anyhow, with her as improvised guest. Kasdan's official legal charge of liable makes the station take his show off the air. Zoe guesses Charlotte knew she was followed and hid the dictation tape in a Main Street Video store cover- the Russiel Crow movie The Insider she rented, and is with someone else now- the clerk can't tell who but does for §50- 'George Washington, at Mount Vernon', so Dan snatches his note back. Zoe realizes Sprinkles, Jake's unhygienic 'friendly' Jake Russel, didn't bark at the intruder, so it must be someone they knew. Meanwhile Jake finds his young assistant Steve knocked down...

Quentin scores a B-minus with the kids (they never give an A on a first date) after an endless grilling, but Zoe is sold. Leo uses a lame excuse to 'drop by' at Zoe's and gets invited while she makes jambalaya with Quentin; after this scares Quentin, Leo asks Zoe out, but passes out drunk-sick before she can wriggle out of refusing bluntly. Dan is not amused by Gigi's brutality on their search, yet they play strip-poker; Zoe calls him before they show skin, and finally learns they are dealing with the same Quentin, but neither has heard his story yet...

- Hardy is not the man he appears to be. Combining radical instincts, a hatred of hypocrisy, poetic brilliance and a deep sense of the tragic basis of life, Hardy had a quiet external appearance but internally was a man of seething, gloomy darkness. The author of a series of a brilliant novels, many of which have been made into successful feature films -Tess of the D'Urbevilles, Far from the Madding Crowd and Jude the Obscure -Hardy late in life became a great poet. Despite his respectable outward appearance, Hardy's life was more complex than it seemed. He married his first wife Emma Gifford in 1874 and became estranged from her for the last 20 years of their life together. They hardly spoke. Hardy was overcome with grief and sadness following the death of Emma.He had ignored her for half their married life. Hardy's uncomfortable secret was that for the last years of his wife's life he had been deeply in love with a young woman -his secretary. Quite simply and rather suddenly, Hardy's acts of mourning and regret released a greater poet within himself. The work he created made Hardy one of the greatest poets of the 20th century. At the heart of Hardy's writing is the intersection of fate and chance with human tragedy, set in a landscape that Hardy called Wessex -one that has haunted his readers ever since.
