Reggie hoped riding a cool bike would relieve his anger about British Rail and his non-happening sex life (even now the spousal agendas don't clash, Nicola's period does), and bragged about it in advance, but that proves another painful experience. CEO Chris needs to learn about the company and deliver daunting promises to the board after a year of (mis)management. Reggie coaches him tirelessly, even during the weekend, but is deeply disappointed.
