"Episode 1" 

After successfully removing John Boy, Nidge is determined not to make the same mistakes as his predecessor, but is blinded to the cracks appearing in his gang. When Aido is mistakenly shot by the CIRA, headed by renowned thug Christopher "Git" Loughman, Nidge plays the diplomat and tries to smooth things over. Darren, however, isn't prepared to let the matter lie and decides to throw a pipe bomb at Git's car. Although Nidge denies all knowledge of the attack, as a way of calming the situation, he persuades Git to join him and the gang for St. Patrick's day celebrations. The evening goes off without a hitch until Tommy catches a drunken Git trying to rape Siobhan, and all hell breaks loose. When Darren is forced to intervene, he decides that the best course of action is silence Git forever.

"Episode 2" Fran assists Nidge with burying Git's body deep underground, but when Git's son Dano becomes suspicious of his father's disappearance, he confronts Nidge, determined to find out the truth. Knowing that Dano will continue to search for answers, Darren and Nidge concoct a plan to make Elmo the scapegoat, but their actions ultimately result in Darren being forced to carry out a hit on Elmo's cousin Gary and his wife. In the romance stakes, Tommy continues his illicit affair with Debbie, Darren finds himself an admirer in Dano's cousin Lizzie, while Nidge finds his attraction to Dano's wife Georgina becoming increasingly uncontrollable. Meanwhile, as Siobhan struggles to come to terms with what happened, Tommy tries to persuade her to keep quiet and to not attend a sexual health clinic.

"Episode 5" Donna is convinced by a friend to rat to the police about the rape of Siobhan again completely defying Siobhann's wish to keep it secret and the police eventually connect the dots and arrest and imprison all people in the gang (including Siobhan) except Darren and Fran for questioning but they all refuse to talk. Meanwhile Dano is told info about this and pieces it together realising that Nidge and the lads were responsible for Git's death and plots to have him clipped against the wishes of the inquisitor.
