Jess and Cara are very encouraging - but best friend Jake remains suspicious and follows Ray... with Jess in tow. Ray and Sam meet. Everything is going well.

A flatmate of Ray and Jake. She is a fashion designer for celebrities. She's not gay - but is obsessed with queer culture and sometimes wishes she was. She agrees to follow Jake on a stalking mission of their flatmate Ray, only to have it go embarrassingly wrong... Some experience in fashion or design to give the role authenticity would be great.
