Elliott and Maddie are suspended for two weeks by the Board but before Elliott leaves he tells Joseph that a deal was done to secure the position of lo-cum consultant for Jac by Lord Byrne in exchange for Lord Byron writing a letter to the board supporting Thandie's accusation. Joseph sets out to prove this and in so doing Jac's ruthless ambition shows itself in Lord Byrne's company. Ric tells Jac that he won't support her application for lo-cum consultant. Jac goes to Lord Byrne and asks him to recommend her for a position at Bath NHS but he tells her he will only recommend her to a hospital which is a huge distance from him. Lord Byrne's heart deteriorates and an embolism is discovered. Connie operates but cannot save Lord Byrne and he dies. Elsewhere, Donna is intrigued by Category A prisoner John Kitto and Abra tells Ric that if he supports his plans for his night surgeries he will take Thandie on as a surgeon on the team.
