The Special Operations Response Team, or SORT, are busy with two calls to young patients. Michal has severed his finger, but the crew are hopeful it can be repaired with an operation. While at an outdoor inflatable assault course, the challenge is to help a child with a broken arm get from the bouncy surface where she fell, safely into an ambulance without falling over. We are with paramedics Kim and Scott from Dalkeith as they revive a man who has collapsed on the street after a night out involving ketamine and alcohol, and they help a 92-year-old get ready for hospital. Meanwhile, an ambulance dispatcher at one of the service's call centres struggles to balance limited resources against a huge increase in calls.

Two patients experience excruciating pain following accidents the previous day. One is an injured biker who was touring the North Coast 500 with friends, and the other is a 71-year-old woman who had been playing with her grandchildren on a trampoline. In Dalkeith, a crew attend an emergency involving a woman with symptoms that indicate a possible stroke, sepsis, or both. These are life-threatening illnesses, and getting her the right treatment is time-critical. Meanwhile, paramedics from Banff rush 25 miles to the home of a woman who lost consciousness whilst on the phone for an ambulance. At the ambulance control centre, we learn what it feels like to help callers deliver life-saving CPR as they wait for paramedics to arrive.
