Greg helps two holidaymakers, but his good deed lands him in trouble with the law.

Ruby faces difficult questions when her actions have devastating consequences. Bobby ends up as a reluctant patient at Good Karma and decides to take matters into his own hands, much to Frankie"s dismay. Lydia hides how impressed she is with Samir but rewards his efforts with a job offer. Greg discovers that getting arrested has alerted immigration to the fact that he doesn"t have a visa.

The happy news that Karishma is awake is offset by her loneliness. Realizing she needs more than medicine to fix her, Samir arranges a little magic. Niki volunteers to help Frankie find her missing son, and when they do, Niki discovers that empathy may be the best medicine, although Frankie"s cancer worries require urgent tests. Meanwhile, Lydia learns there"s only one answer to Greg"s visa issue.

A tragic case leads Samir and Mari to grow closer still. Tensions run high when Lydia treats best friends with different faiths.

Lydia is forced to confront her past and question her future.
