Title

The title is a reference to the phrase between a rock and a hard place and the wealthy Dublin suburb Foxrock.

Plot

After falling victim to a tiger kidnapping, Ross and his family must save Foxrock from being replaced with "Sandyford East".

Publicity stunt

A red sports car with cast members was parked outside the Department of the Taoiseach as a publicity stunt.^[2] The car blocked an entrance, blocking a car with Taoiseach Brian Cowen from leaving, which led to an official shouting at the occupants of the car to move.^[2]
