Gill introduces her new sergeant to Will Pemberton, an ambitious detective superintendent on his way to the top. Unbeknownst to her, Rachel and Will have been enjoying a passionate yet discreet affair. The case of the week involves the murder of a woman in a Manchester hotel. With only a necklace and the name Lola to go on, Syndicate 9 try to piece together her last known movements.

Unable to get over being second choice for the sergeant's job, Rachel punishes Janet for not telling her.
