All Saints

A heat wave tears through Sydney and the staff and patients of All Saints are feeling it. Jodi continually bugs maintenance to have their air conditioner fixed. Terri nurses a burns victim who has chosen to not have treatment. Ben and his new ambulance partner Scott Zinenko are stuck in their ambulance after being surrounded by fire.

The new NUM, Kate Larsen arrives with her no-nonsense persona and has to try and talk a patient out of committing suicide. Bron nurses a bipolar patient who fakes taking his medication and has explosive outbursts. Luke attends a lunch with a group of former prisoners and is forced to perform surgery on a gunshot victim.

Connor nurses two brothers who are arguing over an incident that has put them both in hospital. Sarah Adams is readmitted to the ward, but on her way home, Ben and Scott are forced to deliver her baby in the back of the ambulance. Jared deals with a difficult group of patients and when a patient takes pills that weren't meant for them.

Mitch diagnoses a gifted ballerina with scoliosis. She must make a choice between her career and her health, without disappointing her proud mother. Connor surprises Jodi with flowers and finds her reaction not at all what he expected.

Bron's bookie gives her an ultimatum - $13,000 or 5 vials of pethidine. Mitch and Kate allow the court case, in which Sarah sues her old boss and company for compensation, to take place in the ward and she's awarded $1.6m. Kylie and Luke doctor a patient who Bron accuses of being a drug addict. Scott forgets to eat breakfast and has a day of back-to-back call outs. Kate resorts to alcohol.

Kylie admits a homeless drunk who has a knack for singing. Mitch and Connor try to comfort a suspected rape victim who refuses to let them contact the police, but after she kisses Connor, Von is forced to take over care. After trying terribly hard to organise lunch together, Jodi tells Connor that she's pregnant and that she's having an abortion.

Mitch is rushed off his feet and is forced to miss Lucy's three-month check-up when Jonathan Healey is admitted to the ward. Connor clashes with Dr Sam Mukherjee over his treatment of a patient and then learns Jodi had the abortion and is leaving. Ben and Scott are called out to a man who got hypnotised and won't snap out of it. Kate begins to resort to drinking on the job.

Scott and Ben are called out to a suicide to discover the victim has been dead for weeks. Bron nurses a patient who has bladder issues, but Luke learns that she has ambiguous genitalia. Jared begins to annoy the rest of the Ward staff as he rambles on about nursing legalities.

What ought to be a routine day on Ward 17 is at odds with itself from the very start of the day shift. Kate Larsen is late arriving and, much to his amazement, appoints Connor her second in command for the day. Some time later, though, she seems to have forgotten, and takes Connor to task for presuming to make decisions without consulting her.

Arriving at the scene of a domestic violence call-out, Scott and Ben discover a teenage girl, Emily, has been stabbed in the neck by (it appears) her boyfriend Jake.

In Kate's absence, Connor does a double shift as NUM, running the ward overnight with Bron and Jared. Night duty's a breeze and Connor and Bron play the fool as Jared tries to cram in some extra study.

Terri returns to ward 17 and is amused to find Mitch's new boss is his former intern Malcolm Pussle, who once had a huge crush on her.

Ben and Scott are called to attend the attempted suicide of a late teenage/early twenties kid whose angry father (summoned to the scene by a neighbour) seems dead-set on having nothing further to do with his son's self-serving antics.

Ben and Bron have spent their first night together, but can Ben put the past behind him? A couple are distraught when the father accidentally knocks down and kills their two-year-old baby. Von and Kylie nurse a man who likes to be treated as a baby.

Ben and Bron question their new relationship while grappling with fears and unresolved emotions. Bron helps a grieving father unlock his catatonia after a tragic accident, and Ben says his final goodbyes to Stephanie. Meanwhile, Mitch clashes with Malcolm over a patient's care but finds common ground, leading Malcolm to ask Terri out.

Mitch diagnoses gangrene in an independent homeless lady. When she rejects medical attention, Mitch finds it hard to respect her decision. Bron nurses a young backpacker who has lived with epilepsy for most of his life. After a failed lunch date, Ben finally catches up with Bron. Jared arrives at work to find the medical fund-raising calendar has gone on sale.

Ben and Scott arrive at a low security prison to find a siege in progress with a guard, a nurse and another inmate held hostage in the prison clinic. A post-op patient lands Connor in trouble with Luke. Terri reveals to Von that she is worried Dr Pussle will want to progress the relationship faster than she can handle.

Ben and Scott are caught in the middle of a siege when they are called out to a prison. Meanwhile, Luke is angry at what he perceives as a lack of patient care on Connor's part; and Terri confides in Von about her fears for her new relationship.

Father Francis Tyler is admitted in an emaciated state. MITCH diagnoses Beri-beri but suspects the Father to be alcoholic and suffering from the more serious condition of Wernicke's Encephalopathy.

When Von's young buddy, Zac, doesn't show up for their "cigarette" break, she is immediately alarmed. She goes to the paediatrics ward to visit him and finds him in poor spirits.

Ben and Scott are attending to an car accident involving a single male. The sole witness is sure he saw a female in the car, but the driver, Robert, is adamant he was alone. In hospital, it's revealed Robert is a well known bookie.

Mitch is shattered when he learns that Rose is pregnant. It is no accident. She chose to let this happen without discussing it with him.
