---------------------------------------------------
Colin tests the reflectors on the tunic tops in the yard! Bayleaf informs him that they run out quite quickly!
Hallam takes part in a BA training drill at the training centre. Hallam refuses to talk to Duffy, like Sandra won't talk to him! During the drill, Hallam is exhausted and runs out of air and has to quickly be taken to the medical room.
Tony attends the launch party at Jenny's shop. Jenny asks him out for a meal and to go to the cinema that evening, but Tony can't because he is working.
Colin is restless when the Watch have a quiet shift and is continually told to go to bed, but he won't.
The Watch get called to a flat fire, after some drug dealers break into a flat of a rival dealer. The rival dealer runs off and the men threaten to throw his wife over the balcony.
After the flames are tackled, the flat owner won't come down, then as he does, he kicks a police officer in the face, before running off. Colin runs after him and Bayleaf follows, trying to stop him. It results in Colin being kicked in the face, then jumped at knife point. As Bayleaf approaches, the man slashes his face, before running off. Bayleaf then has a go at Colin, telling him to never go off alone. That is what happened to Ethnic and he was killed.
Colin attempts to apologise to the Watch and Tate pulls him aside, telling him that it is his final warning. If he pulls a stunt like that again, he is out.
Clare continues to pressure Bayleaf into putting in a transfer to Croydon. She tries to justify the choice, telling him he will be under far less pressure and she won't worry about him as much.
As Hallam joins the lads at the training college for a drink on the final night, Duffy smudges lipstick on Hallam's y-fronts, then puts them back in his suitcase!
Tony goes to visit Jenny, where she reveals that her business is not doing very well. She plans to advertise door-to-door by leaflets and takes Tony along with her.
Sandra find the Y-fronts and isn't happy! She makes Hallam sleep in the spare bedroom and tells him that he can do his own washing!
Sicknote tells that Watch about hearing from Jean, through Sandra, about Hallam's Y-fronts! The Watch later question him about it, but he denies it!
Bayleaf moans about the state of the cupboards in the mess and goes to complain about it to Tate! Bayleaf points out that his standards must have slipped and starts comparing Blackwall to Croydon. Bayleaf then tells Tate that he wants to transfer to Croydon, but Tate's not having it and he tells Bayleaf to give it some serious consideration. He then tells him that he has no Form 10's and that there are none in the area. They have all been taken in and are being recycled into recycled Form 10's!
The Watch sing a chorus of 'Lipstick on my Y-Fronts!' each time Hallam is nearby. Malcolm reveals the reason to Tate and Hallam insists it's not true, claiming that Duffy interfered with his underwear!
Technique puts a washing machine into his car for Marion and as she comments about his bad back, he reveals that he doesn't really have a bad back, he is just off work to train for his body building competitions. He then tells Marion that he can't put in the washing machine for her that day because he has a modelling job up West. As they get into the car, Technique is caught on tape by the Brigade's Secret Squirrels!
Bayleaf talks to Jaffa about Technique, revealing that he might talk to Technique about some cash in hand work.
The next shift, as Hallam walks into work, the Watch and everyone else in the area all sing 'Y-Front Man!'!
In the dorm, Kevin is clearly jealous of how close Marion and Technique are, as Hallam finally gives in, making up a story about a red-head to shut them all up!
The Watch are called to a shout where a train has de-railed, which was caused by a sleeper being thrown onto the line. The number of casualties are huge. A woman called Sally approaches Tate looking for her sister Ginny.
Ginny is found and is in a bad way. Her legs were trapped and were bleeding heavily, but she couldn't feel a thing. Colin is upset as the woman begins to deteriorate and as George reveals that the doctors are amputating her legs, Colin bursts into tears and is comforted by Bayleaf.
Kevin is trying to fix the TV in the mess...
