A burglar trying to enter a wine store in "mission impossible" manner slips, and is left dangling in mid-air for the rest of the night. Hallam, Recall and Bayleaf engineer a prank on Colin writing a fake memo with juicy contents he is to copy for the area command headquarters. Over-zealous Colin hands the memo to the brigade mailman who takes it away before Hallam can stop him. He and Bayleaf bicker about the prank gone wrong, blaming each other, until Nick almost catches them out. The private eye tells Bayleaf and Claire that he has found Melanie. Sicknote comes home to find Cynthia with Jean, "making friends" - when they get a minute on their own, he tells her to leave him alone. Kate tells Ian that she has decided not to keep the baby in order to continue her career at the fire brigade. ACO Bulstrode sees Nick about the odd memo, but while he can take a joke and laugh about the prank, Nick is furious. Colin hears from another fireman who brings fresh oxygen bottle that he has been on the butt end of the watch's practical jokes once more and is upset. Kevin goes on his survival training. He is pleased to see Marion coming to visit him at the hotel, but she has only come to tell him it's over. Having lost Vaseline years ago, she couldn't bear the thought of losing another firefighting boyfriend, so she quits. A huge gas-filled pig explodes in a nightclub, causing a big fire and panic among the young clubbers. As the crowd tries to get out of the burning building, Kate is knocked to the ground and trampled on. Back at the fire station she realizes that she has lost the baby.
