Cass reacts angrily to a casual remark by Bobbie, which isn't even directed at her. Reb tells Phyllis she expects her to get the drugs back from Judy and Myra. Pixie diverts Phyllis and Alice with a phony story about a diamond, and she overhears (as intended) Myra plotting to flush the dope down the toilet: Phyllis reports the news back to Reb. Reb runs to the shower block, and finds that Myra actually intends to force the dope down her throat. Reb freaks out and Alice and Phyllis have to keep her out of the officers' way. Reb is locked in for the night with Bobbie, and starts to rave. Ann plucks up courage to tell Jonathan about her mastectomy, and he tells her it doesn't matter to him. Rick has to rescue Bobbie from Reb's violent "trip". Ann has to leave Jonathan in bed, when Joan calls her back to Wentworth to see Reb: Reb is taken to hospital. Phyllis and Meg both have a complete change of personality. Ann informs Colleen that the hospital have ruled out cocaine as the drug Reb took and have pumped her stomach to do further tests. Erica arrives to negotiate over the strike . Jonathan changes Phyllis back to her old self. Hannah Geldschmidt, an East German illegal immigrant, is inducted on a charge of attacking a man . Erica agrees to the women's terms as stated by Judy and Myra, but cannot accept the claim for a 50% wage increase. Hannah reacts badly to the sight of the shower, but is reassured when Joan switches it on: Joan notices she has a number tattooed on her arm , and Hannah tells her the man she attacked was a Nazi. Erica concedes to Ann privately that the Department is prepared to increase the women's wages by 30% and if they accept that she feels the Department will accept their other demands. Pixie goes to Bobbie's cell to collect something from her locker, and while she is bent over Cass attempts to strangle her with a kettle flex, believing her to be Bobbie .
