Episode synopsis
This episode is based very loosely on the story of Cinderella. Paul and Tim are members of the Royal Rhino Misogynists Lodge, and it is time for the annual ball. Richard isn't allowed to attend the ball because he isn't a member of the Lodge, and besides, who else would iron all of Tim and Paul's Rhino clothes and clean the floor? But while poor Richard is locked away in his room, slaving away over a hot iron, his fairy goldfish decides to drop in. This episode features the songs 'Living with Girls' and the 'Rhino Song'.
