Boon Season 4, Episode 11: Don't Buy from Me, Argentina
Helen is hosting a party for Argentinian polo players at Woodcote Park. She falls for Raoul Gomez, a suave Argentinian. Aiden Curtis, the husband of one of the English guests, asks Ken to watch his wife Merrily (!) who is ""terribly easily influenced"", meaning that he knows every man in the room fancies her and that he thinks she is having an affair.

Merrily's horse, Deauville Dancer, is infertile but Rennet has signed a certificate stating that it is in perfect health.
