The Magoons have been invited to a relative's engagement party, where Nitin's Dad has high hopes of setting Nitin up with Priya, a young girl from Suffolk. On their way to the function the Magoons are instructed to pick up the entertainer – Selina the Snake Woman who Nitin’s Dad has hired to entertain the guests. Things take a bizarre turn when Selina turns out to have dated Nitin for six weeks, and claims to have once been engaged to Paul. With the distinct whiff of a bunny boiler about her, Selina tries to win back the terrified Paul. Meanwhile Nitin can’t believe Paul could be more desirable than him and in turn pursues Selina... landing him in a very slippery situation.
