A gun shop is raided but the guns are junked. It is part of a plot by a man named Duffy, a member of the political terrorist group the Organization to discredit the main body of the group, who have now formed a truce with CI5. He is also out for revenge on Doyle, who killed his brother, and lures him into a trap, as well as planting a bomb in a public car park.

An episode filmed in and around Crouch End, Archway and Muswell Hill, London, as well as a few locations I'm not sure of. I remember the scene of the shooting at the casino being filmed and seeing the car being chased crash into railings as it turned with speed onto the main road. Edited out as it wasn't part of the storyline. Also a shot of the old ABC cinema.
