The funds from the Entertainments Committee seem to have disappeared and so a new means of raising cash is required. What about a beauty contest to find the prettiest nurse? Dick fixes it that Nurse Reynolds will win it and then return the winnings to him for the fund but Duncan suspects that this is another of Dick's dishonest scams and talks the nurse out of it. With no 'plant' to win the money, there is only one solution - Duncan must drag up as the prettiest nurse, attracting the attention of Sir Edmund Steele from Highcross at the same time.
