- Janet is in a race against time to bring betting syndicate mastermind Darren Faulkes to justice.
- Janet and the NCC know that Darren Faulkes is the head of the betting syndicate, because they've tracked his criminal earnings to a Swiss bank. But they can't charge him until he accesses the money. They believe Darren intends to use this money for the next betting plunge, but when his attempt to corrupt a young tennis player fails, it's an ethically conflicted Richard who is forced to ensure the betting scam goes ahead. Trying to repair her relationship with Pearl, Janet encourages her to apply for assistance through a sporting program for disadvantaged youth, but warns Pearl that she must decide whether or not to take responsibility for her own future. Meanwhile, Zoe DiCosta's refusal to see a doctor has Janet suspecting her fast deteriorating condition is due to performance enhancing drug use. This leaves Zoe with a choice - confirm the drug rumours with life-saving heart surgery, or take her secret to a far-too-early grave. When Faulkes' henchman Wes Foster is charged with the murder of Flynn Pearce, Darren instructs Richard to represent him. Richard is further conflicted by yielding to Janet's demand to advise Wes to cooperate with the NCC. Janet finally gets the evidence she needs to prove how Darren is laundering his money, but now Darren has discovered that Richard is an NCC plant, forcing Janet to act fast to save him. And just as Janet is about to deliver the final nail in Darren's coffin, Owen Mitchell stymies proceedings by revealing Darren is a pawn in a much bigger operation. Will Janet reluctantly relinquish her victory for a longer-term gain?
