PI Sally Johnson questions new PC Yvonne Hemingway about Danny Glaze and Des Taviner, but as she is new, she doesn't know them. Danny Glaze is long gone, as DCI Meadows discovers when he receives Glaze's warrant card in the post. Hemingway and Klein find a teenage girl being harrassed, and when a cyclist is hit by a stolen car during a chase with police, the prime suspect is one of the girl gang - Beth Tyler - the reluctant witness in a rape case several months previously. PC Des Taviner is devestated when he fails to revive a baby who appears to have died of SIDS, and Sgt. Sheelagh Murphy admits she is pregnant with his baby. DC Rob Thatcher notches up his first conquest at Sun Hill - PC Cathy Bradford, who is shocked when Polly Page's boyfriend Max proposes to her.

Murphy finds herself caught in the middle of a personal dilemma when she is asked to investigate a possible cot death. Taviner decides to put his priorities in order and to focus on Murphy and their baby. Hemmingway and Young have a falling out over different ways to approach a case. Thatcher continues to try and woo the entire female Sun Hill workforce, and sets his eyes upon new station reception officer Marilyn Chambers. He bets Klein he can get her into bed on the first date, but he soon finds himself in close competition with none other than Hollis. Taviner becomes determined to cover his tracks for the sake of his baby when Johnson continues to pressurise him over the Jeff Simpson case.
