Their secluded holiday was all Angelo needed to recover from the Hugo ordeal, while companion Charlie remains subject to nightmares. All their stressing about his promotion likely to mean a geographic transfer proves void, but they get another surprise: he's promoted sergeant, now above her. Alf is so disgusted by the Australia Day eve riot that he resigns from the surf-club and ceases running the bait-shop. Aden gets to run it, worthy of a celebration overshadowing Nicole's gloom at her failed exams.
