In episode 5 of "Trollied" season 1, titled “Episode 5,” the supermarket staff faces a potential disaster when the store’s shutters get jammed while they’re halfway through a restock. Elsewhere, Checkout 3's promotion causes problems for the assistant manager, who is making inventory calculations, and personal emotions start to get in the way of some of the relationships within the staff.

Store manager Gavin steps up to try and solve the stuck shutter issue. With customers still inside the store, he is under a lot of pressure to act quickly before the situation gets any worse. However, Gavin soon realizes that fixing the malfunction is not as easy it seems since the problem is deeper than he initially anticipated.

Meanwhile, the Checkout 3 promotion becomes a bit of a catastrophe. Sue, the promotions assistant, is putting on a friendly face for the sake of the promotion but is secretly struggling with the situation. Katie’s competitiveness is also on full display as she tries her best to outsmart her coworkers in securing the sale. But things spiral out of control when the group loses track of the inventory, causing a significant problem to the store.

Gavin orders the front shutter to be opened up for a short period, which allows a small group of customers to leave the store as he and manager Ian work on trying to fix the problem. The pair's tactics fail, so they have to bring in extra help from the maintenance team. The maintenance team soon discovers that the problem is complicated, and there is no quick fix. Hence they prepare to work all night to fix it, which means putting back the store restocking for that day.

On the other hand, tension among some staff members continues to rise. Colin and Lisa's initially close relationship starts to hit the rocks, and Lisa starts to feel under-valued. This puts their working relationship in jeopardy, and their colleagues begin to speculate on a potential conflict among the duo.

However, as the team head back home, Sue and Katie, who went for drinks to relieve the long day stress, are attacked by a group of men, and the situation becomes dangerous. Ray is present and tries to help to defend them, and all end up getting arrested. So, the episode ends with the team in a police cell, pondering over what their fate might be.
