Simon still insists to Helena that Brenda is just an ex and a fashion journalist, but shares a hotel room with the old bag in boxer shorts, claiming his engagement to Helena is to get her vote for the CEO post. Sara is caught trying to spy in Alexander's PC, gets invited to go out by ex-con Koen when he hears her tell to Arne she likes runner Thomas, who is hitting with the new supplies clerk, then gets dumped by Britt with the hurried representatives from the Dutch firm Van Veen, who are not amused Simon is absent at the agreed time; her clumsiness amuses them enough to wait, yet Simon is all but grateful. Alexander conspires with Brit, to make sure Simon's presentation to the board will be embarrassing.
