Jamie and Carl break down Renford Rejects’ Series 1, Episode 10, "Just the Ticket." When Jason brags about having a spare ticket to the massive Manchester United vs. Liverpool match, the Rejects go into overdrive trying to win his favour. Meanwhile, Eddie takes on a directorial role, helping Stewart and Robin prepare for their school production of Romeo and Juliet—with predictably chaotic results.
