The Hunter brothers are paired together to investigate the stabbing of a Syrian national. Suspicion immediately falls on GP Fiona Blakeston, although she claims that she does not know who the man is. The brothers are convinced that there is more to the case than meets the eye and soon discover a link to a major scale antique-smuggling operation. Steve subsequently confronts Phil over their relationship, and the conversation leads him to put in for a transfer. Meanwhile, Smithy returns to work, only to find himself and Hardy investigating his former cellmate Morris Leatherhead, after a laptop goes missing from his workplace. Convinced that a fellow employee has stolen the laptop to fund maternity wear, Ackland and Hollis operate a stop and search - but Bryant's failure to write up her CRIS report leaves the team in deep water.
