Bernie faces an ethical dilemma when her wayward son arrives at the hospital.

Bernie faces an ethical dilemma when her wayward son arrives at the hospital. Sacha and Essie struggle to put the events of the pharmacy siege behind them.

Bernie's son Cameron comes crashing into the hospital, forcing Bernie to face some home truths about her poor parenting. When Cameron then asks Bernie to lie for him about a serious car accident, she finds it harder than ever to refuse him. 

Sacha and Essie disagree over a patient, but it soon becomes clear the tension is not just professional but personal too. With the return of pharmacist Mel serving as a reminder of Ivor's death several weeks ago, will the strain on their relationship prove too much?

Morven arrives at Holby on her day off, keen to avoid another day alone grieving in her flat. When she's thrown together with Jasmine, who happens to be in need of somewhere to live, Morven questions whether she could share a flat with someone apparently so different to her.
