Grant's all on his own in the studio and there's no sign of Steve. While he's waiting, he's checking out his new "mood machine," a device that detects the ambience of its environment & plays music suitable to the moment.

Finding no solace in this, he checks the headlines:

• The latest rumour shoots down the idea that Qantas & Malaysian Airlines are teaming up to set up a joint venture premium class airline
• The ACCC says AirAsiaX breached consumer law by not disclosing the full price of international flights from Australia in their advertising
• Those cracks in the A380 wings are being caused due to the use of the wrong type of alloy during their manufacture (ooops!)
• Army Blackhawks return to the air after the problems they'd been experiencing were due to a batch of faulty bolts

With Steve still not in the studio, Grant tries the "mood machine" for a bit more then decides to make some phone calls to get help from the rest of the PCDU team.
