Masters and Hunter investigate the stabbing of a member of the Skens, but when evidence suggests that Hardy's cousin Dominic may be involved, he is forced to bend the rules to help his wayward relative. When it transpires that Dominic owes the victim money, Hardy begins to doubt whether or not he is playing on the right side of the fence. Meanwhile, Noble and Fletcher tail a van reported stolen earlier that morning, but during the pursuit, a young boy is knocked off his bike, and later dies of his injuries in hospital. When they uncover the identity of the driver, they discover a link to Heaton's arch enemy, Ray Moore – and when the driver later disappears, Meadows suspects foul play.
