The band move to London, Mental Notes is re-recorded for the overseas market and the Enz tour the UK just as punk rears its snotty head. An ill-fated promotional tour of the US leads to the departure of key band members. Neil Finn is asked to join.

The band gets fired up after the Luton session and records 'I See Red' with whiz-kid producer David Tickle; they lose the plot by recording the Frenzy album with Jimi Hendrix's tea boy; and get fired up again by losing gear in a fire, one day before their Nambassa Festival performance in NZ.

The band base themselves in Australia again and nearly break up due to bad debts. A successful tour re-balances the books, as does the huge radio hit 'I Got You' and album True Colours. The Enz simultaneously hit the charts in the UK and US and begin recording the follow-up album, Waiata.
Songs in this episode include 'I Got You', 'Poor Boy', 'Hard Act To Follow', 'History Never Repeats' plus ...
The band sell out London's Hammersmith Odeon, sack their drummer and hand the kit to their costume designer. A gun to the head and a chair to the ceiling. Canada loves them, America misses the boat, hotels lock the windows.
