Another day in A&E and things are hotting up between Lara and Patrick - even the bump Lara gives Patrick's car can't dent his feelings for her. Things are going less well for poor Dillon who's trying to disengage himself from Gemma, without much success. Charlie's pulled a few strings to get her a hostel place but she's reluctant to leave him. Dillon, however, is only too eager to see Gemma move on. It's Tony's first day as the department's EDA and the staff play a little practical joke on him with bedpans! He slips back into his old security role when a patient gives Lara a vicious slap. Tony is all for calling back-up but Lara restrains him. She guesses, correctly, that the patient is a manic depressive and that they just need to calm the situation. On seeing Lara's shiner, Patrick comments that this is becoming a habit with her! Dillon drops Gemma off at the hostel on his way to work. She's clearly upset to be leaving him and cryptically says that everything has to come to an end.

Patrick then crashes into some bushes, to avoid the man. He is ok and gets out of his car, to go and see if the kids in the mini bus are ok. The man is still on the road collecting his papers, causing a lorry to hit the mini bus, which pushes it down into a ditch, trapping the occupants. Meanwhile, there is now a big pile up on the road, one of the vehicles being a petrol tanker, which has sprung a leak.

When questioned later she declares that she prefers the land of the living and that's the way Patrick would have wanted it. And it's all change in the department too. Unbeknown to Lara, Patrick's temporary replacement - Dr Simon Kaminski - has arrived. He's already made his mark on the department - by being sick outside A&E! When Lara goes for a lie down mid-shift she's surprised to find a strange man already in there. Luckily Max gets back just in time from the funeral to explain to security exactly who Simon is.

In the previous episode Niki and Josh have had an argument and Josh has told her that she does not use her initiative so Niki is very angry with Josh. The episode starts with Niki and Fin sitting in the ambulance with Niki doing an impression of Josh. Although Fin laughs at it, he tells her that she has gone far enough and to stop. Niki says Josh is a prat but Fin disagrees and explains that all Josh wants is the best for her and to use her initiative. A call comes through for Comfort and Josh who are in another ambulance, telling them that they have to go to Bull Green where there is an injured man and police will also be on their way. Comfort asks why there are police attending if there is just an injured man. The reply over the radio says that the caller hung up before they could get any more information. However Niki, who is trying to prove to Josh that he is wrong and that she does use her initiative, says that she and Fin are closer to Bull Green and should therefore go there ins
