There's an outbreak of broken hearts in Pearl Bay - on both sides of the bench.

Bob Jelly's community bank goes belly upwards and Bob faces the same fate.

While the town wallows in grief, Bob tries to think up a name for the new pool. Angus has lost his sandbar, Max has lost Elena, Carmen has lost her child and Bucket has lost his dog - Alfonso Domenico Jones, the towns main grief. As they learn to deal with what they're facing, the citizens of Pearl Bay clash on right and wrong.

The town is being terrorised by monster crabs, let loose in suspicious circumstances.

Bob Jelly sells out one of Pearl Bay's most revered traditions to a commercial sponsor and an old girlfriend of Angus's drives into town.

An ominous dream of Kevin's looks like coming true when a mysterious woman arrives in Pearl Bay; Meredith's phenomenal memory fails her; and the locals hide a guilty secret from the past.

A fire-twirler named Felix, and unliked by Laura, is the object of Miranda's affection. Kevin and Phrani try to increase their love life and Laura and Max have dinner - which results in the discovery of how much they have grown to love each other. Heather and Bob have Harold and Meredith over, but are still keeping the news from the town. The male community all express their thoughts of women, while Sergeant Grey wonders about the destruction of the 150 year old community hall. The suspect is Felix but the real vandals however are Rupert and Trevor. As passions ignite and fade, the town will never be the same again

It's vocational guidance time for the younger citizens of Pearl Bay. Bob wants Craig to follow his footsteps into the glorious career that is real estate.

Harold's estranged wife comes up in court over custody of a cat her and her neighbour share.The ownership of the cat has to be temporarily moved for the case but as people shift the cat, it ends with allergic Max. VERY pregnant Trudi is living with Jack, which means Laura won't allow the kids over there, causing more arguments between the Gibsons. Ultimately, Laura does not resolve her differences, but a very drunk and tired Max falls asleep on Laura's bed.

Speculation about Phrani occurs, when her old ""friend"" arrives in town and stories fly everywhere. Love between Max and Laura and Angus and Karen (along with Phrani and Kevin) are the main factors of the episode while the town learn that they have to live their own lives and not be worried about other people's opinions

Conflicts are overflowing in the town. The courthouse is being closed, Meredith doesn't know what to do, everyone wants to know about Laura and Max and the list goes on. Without warning, the town knows everything. In a revelating meeting, the town's secrets are all brought out. Heather and Meredith tell all and Trudi reveals her baby isn't Jack's. Meredith begins a seige at the courthouse, where the town's residents inside say a gunwomen is holding them hostage. Laura stays in her office thinking it is real while Karen, Angus, Max and a small group of our favourite's sit in the courtroom enjoying a sing-a-long. When the demands are met, the only problem is to get away with it. Karen decides to leave Pearl Bay and travel, much to Angus' dismay. Phrani and Kevin become closer and Bob and Bucket blow up the bridge. The town waits for the aftermath, not sure what it will mean
