Heath and Suzi are called out to attend an MVA in which a husband and wife have been injured. They quickly establish that this is not a marriage made in heaven and are forced to separate the pair. Once the warring couple are in All Saints, both in the Resus Bay separated only by a curtain, the wife continues to plead to see her husband while the husband continues angrily to refuse to have anything more to do with his wife. Steve who is treating the wife, Corinne, becomes increasingly concerned that her distress at not being allowed to see her husband is exacerbating her medical condition. He asks Jack to arrange a brief meeting but Jack refuses, citing both medical and ethical reasons. His patient, Richard, has issued strict instructions and Jack's hands are tied.

Finally Corinne takes matters into her own hands and the resulting tragic outcome brings Steve and Jack to blows.

Angus, just twenty years old and with a burning ambition to become an international soccer player, is admitted with what appear to be mild, flu-like symptoms. He's due to appear before a selection panel, and wants a medical certificate to clear him to sit out the first couple of days so he doesn't jeopardise this last opportunity to make it to the top. Bart feels duty bound to make Angus well but despite treatment, Angus's condition deteriorates rapidly. It soon becomes clear that whatever he has, could have been picked up during a recent sporting tour of South East Asia. Charlotte assists Bart by researching disease outbreaks in the countries to which Angus has been, but both are frustrated when all of her research, and all of Bart's tests, come up negative. Angus is getting sicker by the moment and there seems to be nothing they can do about it. It takes Frank's experience to finally recognise the disease for what it is with the final diagnosis stunning them all.

Charlotte finds herself in an awkward predicament when she confronts Rhiannon about her growing attraction towards Bart.
