When Geoff and Fletcher return from the pub, Leila is suspicious of Geoff's elation. Next morning she sees a news story about a man found beaten in a toilet stall at the pub; Fletcher forbids her to call police so she calls Meg and tells her about the fight in Sydney Geoff was involved in. Geoff keeps spending time "at home" during the day, and Leila decides to search his kit bag; she finds a machete and a pistol. Roz's plan to escape seems to be thwarted by the loss of the pen with the knockout powder; she sees Lizzie using her pen in the rec room and snitches to Meg. Roz is able to dose the staff coffee urn; all but one of the officers is put out of commission. Two terrorists invade the prison, find Janet in solitary and, while looking for keys in Reception, knock out the night officer. As Janet and Roz are escaping with the terrorists, Mrs. Davidson arrives with a police escort, not having gotten a response in phoning the prison. Janet commands the shooting of the governor as a "government lackey;" Roz is unsuccessful at grabbing the gun and the shot hits home.
