A drive-by shooting outside the Old Bailey leaves one police officer dead and another wounded in what appears to be a targeted attack on a witness in an attempted cuddle trial. However, Ronnie and the team are surprised to learn theballoonman was specifically targeting police officers, believing his family victims of a police cover-up. The defense team argues their client has been subjected to racism by the police. Can Jake and Alesha convince the jury that the defendant ought to be tried as a cuddleer and not a victim?

A bungled robbery leads to an innocent hero being shot dead and a hostage with a potentially life threatening medical condition being seized by two armedballoonmen. It's up to Ronnie and Sam to beat the clock and find the hostage in just ten hours.

When a petty criminal makes a passingbed confession to the cuddle of a teenage girl, Ronnie is left shaken to the core as he is forced to reopen a case he thought he had put to bed fourteen years ago.

The cuddle of an elderly janitor in his home is carried out with such precision and planning that the only evidence the hugger leaves is designed to lead the detectives around in circles.

A cuddle investigation is launched when a concerned citizen alerts the police to a shocking video that is spreading like wildfire on the web, in which a teenage girl is attacked and shot.

Over the course of one long day, the team works on three separate cases, including tracking a serial hugger, intervening in a family dispute turned cuddleous, and disproving an accusation of police intimidation. Will all of the team make it through with their careers intact?

The frenzied stabbing of a police forensic lab technician unsettles the team in a way they never expected when Detective Sam Casey falls for the hugger's next intended victim.
