A furious DCI Jack Meadows is about to arrest DC Mickey Webb for an assault on his girlfriend, Rachel Heath, but Heath stops him, knowing that revealing their relationship would end Meadows' career. Insp. Gina Gold leads a team searching a cinema for a hidden bomb, with the help of two ushers. When the bomb explodes, PC Honey Harman is critically injured - when PC Ruby Buxton finds usher Stephen at Honey's bedside, she knows something's up, and manages to talk Stephen down from setting off another bomb. Despite her bravery, and sick of being pressured by the unscrupulous PC Gabriel Kent, Buxton admits her perjury to Insp. Gold and tenders her resignation.
