Rescue Special Operations

Swinging by her office early one morning, Michelle interrupts an intruder photocopying Rescue documents. In the ensuing foot chase, the intruder is sideswiped by a car. Dean tries to takes charge of the rescue. But Lara blames Dean for Cam’s tragic injury last week and flat out refuses to follow his orders. When an argument between the two leads to the injured intruder escaping, Michelle and Vince question Dean’s ability to lead the team. Feeling under attack, Dean angrily steps down as unit leader. Acting unit leader Jordan quickly overplays his hand, crashing the Rescue truck on a “perv run” with Chase and Heidi. Vince is furious, and Jordan worries that his first day as unit leader will be his last. Meanwhile, Lara divides her time between Rescue and Cam’s ICU ward. She struggles to accept that Cam may never walk again, desperately wanting to believe that he can be cured, that things will return to the way they were. Cam, however, has come to accept the awful truth. If he’s ever going to come to terms with his injuries, he needs to break with the past. And that includes Lara. Back at the station, Michelle starts to believe that Lifeblood are behind the break-in. And when the injured intruder is discovered hiding out not far from the initial MVA, it seems Hayden’s role in the break-in will be exposed. A nerve-wracking subterranean rescue throws up some unpleasant home truths for Michelle when it’s revealed that the intruder is working for her husband Ian Johnson, not Hayden. In a humiliating, public confrontation, a jealous Johnson admits to having Michelle surveilled- he’s convinced she’s having an affair with Hayden. There’s a scuffle, but Johnson is restrained by Vince and sent packing. The shaken team returns to the station-house where Michelle contemplates an uncertain future and Dean has one last shot at reconciling with Lara...
