Although there was nothing further Jack could have done, he is humbled by the fact that he mislead the girl's fiancé and that his mistake could have had more reaching consequences. Lucas, a PSA at the hospital, is discovered having a Grand Mal seizure. Lucas jokingly uses the hoax caller's catch cry when he thanks Cate for helping him. It is only after Cate's memory is jolted that she remembers Lucas was in her training group in the ambo service. Scott, already driven to find the hoaxer, believes that Lucas is the guilty party. Lucas had an accident whilst training and because of a head injury he became epileptic and had to leave the Service. When Scott finds Lucas alone on the roof, within full view of the hoax call outs, he accuses him of being the hoaxer and threatens to report him but has he found the right guy?

With everyone looking scared and watching their backs, it's the patients, the very people the conference is supposed to benefit, that are going to suffer.

The mother, the father, or the 14-year-old stepson? In the meantime, we discover the reason behind Charlotte's tears. She has terminated her relationship with Addy, who doesn't understand why. When Addy presses for an explanation, Charlotte explains that she wants to have a baby. She's 35, and can no longer afford to waste anymore time - her biological clock is ticking. Elsewhere, Frank's bad mood continues to escalate, as does his poor treatment of the staff. He is particularly bloody-minded with Jack, who he believes needs to take his profession more seriously, and banishes the young resident to the Emergency waiting room for the day. Jack is furious.
