The trio never fail to cause a nuisance for the poor, unsuspecting staff.

Overview
Norman's overbearing, hypochondriac mother comes to visit and he's initially scared to tell her he is romancing nurse Jenny. Norman's cowardice gives Glover the opportunity to try and make a move but Figgis puts him off with lies, enabling the young couple to eventually stand up to Mrs Binns.
