Adam decides a bit of chill time is required to help them make it through their last few days in the city, so books everyone in for a traditional Indian head massage at a local barbers. Adam and twin brother Scott are the first in the chair but it soon transpires it's not the most relaxing experience and Ryan and dad Dougie rapidly run for the exit.

Meanwhile Ryan and Dougie catch up with Dougie's cousin Glen who has flown in from Dubai for an emotional first ever meeting. The chat leads to a shock discovery about Dougie's Grandma that leaves the pair astounded. The lads time in India also coincides with Diwali - the Hindu festival of light.
