D.S. Roach is going before the Inspectors Promotion Board, but the members made up their mind before the interview that he wouldn't be promoted. D.C. Carver is moaning to D.I. Burnside about going out in the evening. They are doing an obbo on a lorry with P.C.s Able and Turnham inside. D.C. Dashwood loses the lorry and the radio link doesn't seem to be working.

The driver was listening to the police communications all the time.
