She falls further into her depression when she learns she has missed Kirsten's funeral and takes her anger out on Ryan when he continues to misbehave at school.

Whilst being murdered, Lewis fights back, stabbing Tommy in the abdomen. Tommy assumes a disguise to remain unseen from the public in Hebden Bridge.

Events spin rapidly out of control when it is revealed that DCI Reed had knowledge of the robbery, and allowed it to go ahead in exchange for a portion of the profits. Reed kills his criminal contact to cover his trail, and then the kidnapper himself. He flees, finally killing Zoe in an attempt to draw Luther out, framing Luther for the crime.
