Wildfire
As they fly a cargo run to a remote community, Bobby tries to engage Krista in a discussion about their relationship. But the conversation is interrupted when they spot a terrified family fleeing a raging forest fire below. Their rescue attempt goes awry when the winds shift and the wildfire wipes out their plane. And when the flames trap Bobby, they need help from Arctic Air water bombers and helicopters to get him out. Meanwhile, Loreen drags Mel back to work for the first time since the crash. He's healthy, but he's been stalling. And in the frenzy of the fire rescue, Loreen is surprised when Mel doesn't jump into a plane to help - making her wonder if the accident has spooked him from the cockpit for good.

Before long, the police have their suspect in custody - the leader of the protest movement: Bobby's sister, Deanna. Bobby tries to prove her innocence but Deanna refuses to talk. To make matters worse, Bobby discovers that Deanna's daughter Hailey is having an affair with the man he suspects is the real bomber. It all comes to a head when Bobby learns there is one more bomb and it's hidden on an Arctic Air plane, piloted by Krista.

Bobby is picking up the hunters that Nelson was supposed to be guiding, but when he and Caitlin arrive, Nelson is nowhere to be found. A search ensues and they find Nelson, shot and barely conscious. Turns out, the hunters weren't there to hunt caribou after all. Now Bobby, Caitlin and Nelson are on the run and have to get back to the plane before the hunters get to them.

Mel has sent Blake to bring them back to Yellowknife immediately. But bad weather forces a rough landing at an abandoned Dew Line Station and Bobby suffers a head injury. Now the three members of this awkward love triangle are stuck together until the storm passes. The situation only gets worse when the three pilots realize there are three other people, seemingly also stranded at the Dew Line. But their stories just don't add up and Bobby, Blake and Krista realize that the three strangers have their own deadly conflicts that might mean no one leaves the Dew Line Station alive. In Yellowknife, Kirby attempts to salvage what's left of his shaky marriage and Dev and Astrid go house hunting for Dev.
