Rescue Special Operations

S02:E09 - Out of the Ashes

During the evacuation of a hotel fire, one of Lara’s patients is someone she recognises – the Emergency Services Minister, Vivien Walker. Vivien asks to be evacuated discreetly, and Lara and Michelle comply. But it soon becomes clear the Minister was there to have an illicit affair with her PA. Michelle agrees to keep this quiet in exchange for a boost in funding, and Vivien agrees. But when another one of the Minister’s employees is found unconscious in suspicious circumstances, Michelle starts to worry about the mess she’s gotten herself into. Michelle and Lara manage to diffuse a volatile situation with Vivien and her PA. And when Vivien comes clean about the whole thing, Michelle deftly ropes her into publicly committing extra funding to RSO. Meanwhile Dean and Annika come to an abrupt end when it becomes clear both Annika and Brett don’t want to break free of their destructive relationship.
