A band called 'The Hothouse Flowers' is due to appear at a local charity gig, and their manager proves to be an old friend of Tinker's. Before going away with Victoria on a little trip, Lovejoy gets Jane to agree to take in the Flowers. But then the organizer of the gig runs off with the money and one of the band decides to sell his valuable antique harp to make good some of the shortfall, but before Lovejoy can arrrange the sale, the harp also disappears.

- Lovejoy: (to camera) I am taking a couple of days off. Why the early start? Well, imagine the lip I get from the rest of the firm. Friends do that to you after a while, they crowd you with guilt. Take Tinker and Eric, please. I mean, age notwithstanding, those fellas are like the sons I never had. Eh! I'll dream about that now.
  EDIT SHARE
- Lovejoy: (to camera) Mended, painted and repainted, it's by Lawrence Burke, from the Paris collection, 1898. Trouble is, the family who owns it had a very low flash point. Last Friday, the wife brings down this vase on the husband's head, crunch. Mind you, this is not the first time this has been used as a club. Anyway, I had to finish it.
  EDIT SHARE
- Lovejoy: (to camera) Well, I've sailed close to the wind a few times in my life, never for real, adrift in the North Sea. If I wasn't afraid, I showed her who's boss. Don't worry, I think she knows.
  EDIT SHARE
- Lovejoy: (to camera) Women may let you down, antiques never. (puts vase down) There. All ready to clobber somebody else. By rights, I shouldn't let them have it back, should I? The Philistines have no eye for lasting beauty, they prefer a lovers' tiff, smashing up the odd bit of hard work and falling back into each other's arms.
  EDIT SHARE
- Lovejoy: (to camera) Yesterday, I'd never been on a boat. Today, I want to live on one for the rest of my life, with her.
