Rescue Special Operations

S03:É14 - S03:E14 - Chemical Brothers

When a light plane strays into city airspace and can’t be contacted, Rescue are dispatched to trail it in the event of an emergency… This quickly eventuates when the plane goes down and ploughs into a customs yard and promptly explodes, triggering a full-blown rescue effort. Dean meanwhile, should be enjoying his RDO with Zoe, but he’s surprised when the wayward Gallagher brother, Lachie, appears, the day before he ships out for his next tour of Afghanistan. Called into the fray, Dean arrives with Lachie, whom is only too happy to put his military skills to good use. Things then take a strange turn as Lara and Jordan cross with the site manager, Adam, and rather than helping, he disappears. And it’s stranger still as Vince reports that there’s no body in the burned-out plane. Apparently, no-one was flying it. As a worker collapses under the influence of a toxin it’s revealed that Adam has been stockpiling chemicals. And when Heidi and Vince find drums of paint thinner, it looks like they’ve found the poison. However, when Adam suffers an agonising death and other workers go down, the team realise they’re looking for something much more sinister. Something that can only have been on the plane. Suddenly the race is on to find the missing pilot. They must discover what he was carrying if they’re going to help the stricken workers. Meanwhile, Dean and Chase are surprised as Lachie announces that he’s getting married. Immediately suspicious, Dean probes and Lachie finally cracks to reveal that he’s been discharged from the army. Is he getting married on the rebound? Out on the flight-path, Heidi and Jordan find the missing pilot and learn the accident was the result of a disgruntled farmer trying to retake control of his life by knocking out the competition. That takes a back seat, however, as Jordan is overcome with a delayed reaction to chemical poisoning. Rescuing him, Heidi then wills him back to life… But were her tears a response to the toxic fumes, or something else? At the registry office, Dean’s words seem to get through to Lachie as he gracefully bows out of his impromptu wedding, but Dean is stirred into action on his own relationship front, only to make an unexpected discovery…
