Proceedings begin with Darryl in Exmouth, on his way to assist fellow officers who've been called in to deal with a young man who's threatened his family with a knife. The person concerned has holed up in a friend's house, and all descend, not entirely sure what they will find. Matters are quite tense, and the suspect appears to have scarpered according to the gentleman they speak to when they arrive. Matters soon deteriorate as the suspect's attempt at subterfuge falls to bits under questioning, and he attempts to leave as soon as it becomes clear that he's not got away with his pretence – a move which leads to a bit of a ruck in the back yard.
