Smoking Demons

As PC Nick Klein recovers from his forced heroin overdose at the hands of Dennis Weaver's henchmen, Sgt. Dale Smith and PC Kerry Young try to prove Nick's innocence beyond doubt as his condition and his previous history with drugs make his testimony unreliable. Nick confronts DS Phil Hunter and accuses him of telling Weaver that he had been a drug addict. Polly Page's house is broken into, and she begins to suspect that her night of passion with journalist Frank Fisher may have been a big mistake as he is the main suspect, particularly after an expose on her murder trial appaers in the local paper. Kerry Young and PC Cameron Tait have a huge row at the pub after Smithy tells Tait that Young has slept with him and Nick Klein. As PC Gabriel Kent watches, Young accepts a lift home with Smithy.
