It is no surprise that this episode has the highest rating from all three series; it has all the qualities which make the series so special but delivers them better than most.
The story is brilliantly conceived and the performances quite outstanding. The daring rescue of Monique moments before Kessler arrives is breathtaking in it's suspense and drama but also succeeds in being believable and credible. Lives are at risk as Lifeline has to make a dramatic plan achieve what seems impossible. The finale of the badly injured Monique singing at the Candide to eliminate any lingering suspicion is also brilliantly conceived and executed.
The secondary storyline of Kessler meeting Madelaine for the first time is an important moment in the development of the series and equally well delivered.
