Mt. Thomas is inundated by a group of footballers, and it isn't long before a gang rape occurs, but what no one expects is for Tom's stepson Daniel to be implicated. Amy, in particular, seems to be particularly emotionally involved with the rape case.

Meanwhile, Ben starts a dangerous spiral as he realises that Susie has truly rejected him, and he convinces himself that he is a failure as a policeman.

While Ben contemplates suicide, he ultimately makes a noble choice by resigning and going to be with his children in Perth.
