Episode 5
In Edinburgh, paramedics from the Special Operations and Response Team attend a woman who has sustained an injury near the summit of Arthur's Seat. Although the injury is not serious, transporting the patient from such a difficult location is a challenge, and the team need specialist four-wheel drive equipment to complete the journey and get the patient to hospital.
It's one of the hottest days of the year in Stranraer, and Tanya and Caron are tending to a woman who has collapsed in the street. After conducting a battery of tests, they conclude the patient is probably overwhelmed by the heat - but tests reveal an issue with her heart.
In Melrose, Lee and Nadine are called to sheltered accommodation, where an older man has suffered a nasty fall and is immobile on the floor and in pain. In order to safely move him into the ambulance, the crew must use a specialist air cushion.
In Ayr, Sean and Natalie are called to a hardware store, where a young man has suffered an epileptic fit. Meanwhile, on the Edinburgh nightshift, Kevin and Martin respond to a call relating to a teenager having a stroke. However, when they arrive on the scene, it is clear the information is wrong and that the patient is actually just very drunk.
At the South Queensferry Ambulance Control Centre, call handler Neil supports a caller who is having a heart attack, and his colleague Kareena needs to mobilise resources to attend a patient who is having trouble breathing.

Nine Bodies in a Mexican Morgue
When a small plane traveling from Guatemala carrying a small group of passengers, crew and a pilot crashes in the Mexican jungle, all the bodies are recovered and placed in a morgue. But it turns out that only one of them died in the crash. The other passengers were murdered afterwards, each one in a unique way. But by whom? And why? As the story unfolds in flashback, we meet the survivors as they fight against the heat, a shortage of supplies, the many dangers of the jungle…and each other. The setting becomes increasingly tense and claustrophobic as, one by one, they are dispatched with a series of shocks that bring us ever closer to the truth and – at the very end – a jaw-dropping reveal.
The Cleaning Lady
When whip-smart Cambodian doctor Thony De La Rosa comes to the United States for medical treatment to save her ailing son, she soon discovers her path won't be as straightforward as she had hoped.

Using her cunning and intelligence, Thony forges her own path in the criminal underworld, doing whatever she has to to survive.
Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
