Season 2
Episodes
Super-visor
Tania's having a bad day. Darrel's living in the office, Gloria's winding her up, Asif's running away to Wales, Shelley's flat-hunting and Kenny's kissing strange girls and drawing pictures. The post room is in chaos and it's Tania's first appraisal as supervisor. Asif is so stressed that he enlists evil Charlie's help in convincing his family that he is a top lawyer. They want him to sue the optician who sold faulty glasses to his Auntie Reena.
Can Tania pull it all together, pass her appraisal and get back on board the Kenny boat before it sails for good?
Monkey Love
Darrel's in love. The only problem is that it's with Mike's daughter, who is hell-bent on causing as much trouble at work as possible so she can go skiing with her mates. Kenny and Tania are in love too, and trying to find five minutes away from Asif to enjoy a spot of heavy petting. With Gloria off sick, Shelley is her unlikely replacement and organises a presentation for Mike to remember.
Smoke and Mirrors
Shelley wakes up in the office with the hangover from hell, annoys the other monkeys all day and smells terrible. Kenny and Tania's sex life is under scrutiny when Tania lets slip to Gloria that they didn't spend the previous night together and rumours fly through the office. Darrel's counter-espionage only makes things worse and his relationship advice for Asif, who has a crush on the office flower girl, isn't working. And there's a limo in Mike's personal parking space, so he's going up the wall.
Dream a Little Dream
Kenny is back from a week on tour with the band for which he does photos and flyers. Tania has missed him, but Asif has missed him more. Tania has planned a motivational exercise involving hats and five-yearlife plans which puts the fear into Kenny. Is this it? Work, marriage, kids then death?
Tania wants everyone to think about their dreams for the future, but Shelley can only think about her recurring nightmare featuring household chores. Darrel's life plan involves replacing Tania as postroom supervisor. And why is Darrel too embarrassed to share the contents of his dream?
Who's the Daddy
Darrel's estranged dad Pat turns up doing odd jobs at Fox Cranford. Pat soon spots an opportunity to find a new home at Darrel and Shelley's flat having been kicked out by his ex. Shelley sees Pat for the unreliable self-obsessed idiot that he is and verges on the point of violence. It's a big day for Asif - if he passes his driving test he's been promised a new set of wheels by his dad. And Kenny is stressed because everyone thinks he's boring now he's settled with Tania and sets out to prove them wrong.
Big Trouble in Little Cranford
It's Fox Cranford's 30-year anniversary, but the celebration is a damp squib involving Gloria's homemade cake. Kenny is panic stricken when he mistakenly thinks that Tania is pregnant, Mike is on the verge ofmeltdown, the firm is going under and the icy silent partner Miss Fox is on the prowl - busting balls and sorting out the firm's inefficiencies.
Tania and Shelley decide to hold a proper party to cheer Mike up. Kenny is in charge of the food and drink and with Darrel and Asif's help it quickly goes pear-shaped. Will Mike top himself? Is Shelley pregnant? Or is it Tania?

Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
