PC Sheelagh Murphy turns to her Catholic faith for guidance after her son Conor's announcement that he is gay, but the Church is not very helpful to her.

PC Lance Powell tries to work out who sent him the text message about the bomb, and realises only three people had his new number: his family, his boyfriend... and Conor Murphy. Powell tells PC Sheelagh Murphy about his suspicions, and she is disgusted that he could think her son could be capable of the bombing.
