Angelo is distraught after his thwarted attempt to bring the developers down quickly ended in tragedy for Nobby and death threats to Angelo. Jack gets suspicious when he finds out that Angelo’s cousin bailed Nobby out. Angelo is forced to partly confess to Jack and then to Charlie.
Belle arrives at Angelo’s house to find him with gun in hand, freaking out that Tim has sent someone to kill him. Sure enough a hitman does arrive, lines Angelo and Belle up and is just taking aim when Jack turns up in the nick of time. Jack gates the jump on the hitman and with Angelo soon bring him under control. Back at the station Charlie finds a link between Tim, Nobby and the hitman – it’s enough to freeze development at the site and seize the computers.
Despite this victory, Angelo isn’t relieved – Tim has done a runner and who knows what could still be in store for him. When Jack confronts him about the only piece of the puzzle that doesn’t fit – the clear soil samples that Angelo was responsible for submitting and could easily have swapped – Angelo does his best to convince him he isn’t working for the other side. But Jack will be watching Angelo and we are left to wonder if he has bitten off a lot more than he can chew.
