As the episode begins, the family gathers for breakfast. Spiros (Alexis Georgoulis) pays them a visit. He tells them about the Ferrari family who has just moved to Corfu. After the intro, he tells Larry (Josh O’Connor) and Leslie (Callum Woodhouse) that the fire brigade needs volunteers. Louisa (Keeley Hawes) doesn’t like the idea, but Larry and Leslie do. Louisa goes spying on the new family. The father, Guido (Luca Calvani), catches her. She learns about their family and is invited over. Leslie and Larry speak with the fire chief (Vasilis Vasilakis).

Then, the family prepares for their date with the Ferraris. Paolo (Sebastiano Kiniger), Clara (Antonia Desplat) and Violetta (Fabienne Piolini-Castle) are very classy. The Durrells are somewhat of a mess. Margo (Daisy Waterstone) is obsessed with Clara’s looks. After the dinner, Louisa insists they’ll need to be perfect when the Ferraris visit their house. Next, Larry and Leslie undergo the physical test. Larry passes, but Leslie fails. The Ferraris visit. Things do not go much better for the Durrells this time around. Guido tells Louisa that he would like her to mentor her daughter. He also wants Leslie to teach Paolo how to sail.
