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. Who can blame Ben for falling in love? The best thing is - she loves
him back. She offers him the unlikely prospect of happiness. Will he take it?
