Description There's nothing like being audited to remind you that everything comes at a cost. Ben O'Sullivan (Russell Dykstra) is having a bad day at the family-run clothing factory. He's back from a business trip to find his brother drunk, his father ripping off suits, his mother dying (again) and his wife off for an erotic massage.

Then Zoe Sparkes (Pia Miranda) arrives. Zoe is an auditor from the Tax Office. She?s a single woman who can do the maths. Within 24 hours she has taken over Ben's office. She has taken stock. And she has taken off her clothes.
