S01E02: Playing a GooglyAn unemployed Dave struggles to regain his manhood and position in the family, landing himself in hospital.
When life keeps bowling Dave a series of problematic googlies, the question becomes: how will he play them?
An overprotective Dave breaks a promise to his daughter and is brutally attacked.
Rachel struggles with the aftermath of leaving her abusive boyfriend Daniel — and her own secret turmoil.
Narrated by Dave, this episode focuses on Dave dealing with the reality of sudden employment and a house that has been unexpectedly inundated with family members — each bringing with them a dark secret. He processes it all through a cricketing metaphor — that of the googly — that devious curve-ball that life can throw at you, catching you off-guard.
