Fitzwilliam grills Okaro after his comments to the press about decriminalisation of drugs the day before. She demands he make a public apology before taking him to a disciplinary hearing with the commissioner. He threatens to resign after she stops him leaving a meeting, only to discover he was comforting the mother of the boy shot dead the day before, and this move leads Fitzwilliam to defend Okaro's unconventional methods. Buxton and Best attend a fatal overdose, with the victim a possible suspect in a series of thefts investigated by Sharpe, but Buxton is saddened to discover the girl was one of her childhood friends. Taviner and Glaze have a strong GBH charge thrown out of court, and Taviner suspects the judge may have taken a bribe, but Meadows, a friend of the judge in question, immediately dismisses the claim. Kane tries to push Bradford away after their night of passion.
