The setting provides a coastal backdrop, and the episode moves at a relaxed pace as they engage with their finds. During his walk, Henry Cole comes across an unusual three‑wheeled motorbike. The bike’s distinctive design catches his eye, prompting him to investigate further. Meanwhile, Simon O’Brien discovers an old projector screen and immediately envisions turning it into a work of art. He observes its features as part of his assessment and wonders about its origins.
