Polly Page's house is broken into, and she begins to suspect that her night of passion with journalist Frank Fisher may have been a big mistake as he is the main suspect, particularly after an expose on her murder trial appaers in the local paper. Kerry Young and PC Cameron Tait have a huge row at the pub after Smithy tells Tait that Young has slept with him and Nick Klein. As PC Gabriel Kent watches, Young accepts a lift home with Smithy.
