Night Beat

Synopsis

Cryer is taken hostage at gunpoint by an aggrieved husband who has decided to take drastic action over a custody case. After accidentally firing the gun at his ex-wife, Cryer is then forced to make a difficult decision – save the victim and allow the man to commit suicide or risk the woman's life to prevent him from doing so. Meanwhile, with the canteen staff off for the night, Hollis takes his task of cooking meals for the prisoners a little too far.
