As Jas takes his father's place at Thatch's side, the law closes in on the gang and the police are tipped off about a dog fight. During the fight, police manage to break up Thatch's gang and make arrests. Scarlet's friends support her and with their help she improves. However, the day to day pain of living with her illness makes her life unbearable.
