When Avani meets up with dealer Declan in the café, he refuses to give her some weed for free. After stepping in to pay for it, Joel goes to find Avani to arrange a get-together so they can share the weed.

Later, Avani is at No.1 with Barney when Joel and Tommy arrive and Barney is dismayed that Avani invited them. Things go from bad to worse when Joel makes a disparaging comment about Avani when she is out of the room, and Barney calls him out.

Unscrupulous Joel convinces Avani that Barney is to blame for the angry situation, and she storms out.

Later, Avani and Joel are smoking weed together when he makes a move on her.
