The Circuit

Ellis is reluctant to talk about how the meeting with his Aboriginal family went. Tragic news rocks everyone on the team, with Bella Noble taking it particularly hard.

Sam Wallan takes the first steps in putting his family back together. Ellis deepens his relationship with Noble, who persuades him to give his new family another try.

With the inquest into Clarry Long’s death approaching, magistrate Peter Lockhart first has to deal with the fallout from the gang violence and a major riot.

While Lockhart battles an inquiry into his personal conduct, the new magistrate’s “tough love” approach creates tension on the team and alienates the local elders.

Lockhart’s standing is under threat because of his help for the disgraced Harry Pope. Wallan tries to make restitution for his past. Ellis and Noble reach a crossroads.

Ellis finishes his journey “home,” walking the land of his ancestors with his uncle and the elders. Wallan restores his family. Lockhart finds a way to make a difference.
