S18 E21 (24 Jan 04) : Emotional Rescue (Part 1) by Ginnie Hole
Episode Summary
Harry puts Simon and Lara at risk while at an outdoor pursuit centre for management training. Rattled by Lara’s late-night shenanigans with the instructor, Harry stubbornly ignores the marked route and heads off down a darkened tunnel during a cave orienteering exercise. After losing his footing, he slips down the shaft and hurts his leg. In attempt to rescue him, they all end up trapped in freezing, wet conditions and the instructor is badly injured. Anger turns to panic when the hole begins to fill with water. Cramped and cold, they reveal intimacies until Lara decides to venture back into the tunnel. When the only thing left to do is swim underwater to an opening, Simon volunteers to go first and secure the route. He courageously helps Harry, but in a moment of confusion knocks his head against a rock and does not resurface.
Charlie is forced to get an injunction to stop Dan taking Louis out of the country. In a state of frenzy, he rushes out of work, only to discover that they have already left. He finds them at the station and presents Dan with the court order.
Comfort breaks down when a young child dies in front of her, and Fin is furious when he discovers she has been drinking to ease the pain. After last week’s revelation, Jim throws himself into his work and tries unsuccessfully to contact Nikki and Andy.
