Broke, hungry and having been given his marching orders by lazy carer Ruth, Tim heads out to do some grocery shopping. But after a showdown with the world's most overcautious lollipop lady, Tim finds himself lost in an unknown part of town. Stumbling across a food stall giving out free hot meals Tim thinks he's hit the absolute jackpot. That is until he reaches the front of the queue and realises that the food is actually meant for the queue of refugees he suddenly realises he's walked past. Faced with this moral dilemma, Tim as ever takes the path of least resistance and with scruffy look and dark beard does his best to go under the radar - until he's spotted by enthusiastic charity worker Benedict. Intrigued by this severely disabled refugees' story, Tim finds himself embroiled in a lie that snowballs out of control, beginning with Tim claiming to be Syrian ex-skateboard champion 'Mohammed Ali' and ending with him fronting a new charity campaign video.

Not only might Tim be British but it looks like he's also loaded! However after meeting doddery old Great Uncle Thomas, Tim is faced with the awkward truth that not only did Tim's grandfather renounce his British citizenship, but that he did so in order to join the Nazi party. And not only that but old Unckie Tom is actually broke. With all avenues exhausted the gang say their fond farewells at the airport.

Having narrowly escaped deportation to the USA, Tim has found himself a loophole and landed a place on a postgraduate course in London. Not that he has any real intention of going, or learning anything, but a student visa means that he can stay in Britain, where he intends to wreak more havoc alongside the world's laziest carer Ruth and mild-mannered friend Idris. Having failed to find anywhere suitable to live, Idris encourages Tim to attend college to apply for assisted disability housing. There, Tim bumps into liberal activist student Bobbiey, who is desperate to be Tim's friend and add another 'minority' member to her gang. But while Tim gets sidetracked winding Bobbiey up, he neglects to sign up for any accessible housing, meaning that he and Ruth will be staying with a deflated Idris on a more permanent basis.
