Doctor Ethan Hardy hopes his secret torment will finally be over when the results of the inquest into Scott Ellisson’s death are finally made public in this week’s Casualty.

Guilty Ethan wrestles with his conscience when the inquest rules an accidental death following Scott’s fall from the ED balcony. When exhausted Ethan falls asleep at work, he’s taunted by Scott (Will Austin making a special guest reappearance) in his dreams! Later, after Ethan fails to make a critical diagnosis, as a patient’s life hangs in the balance, irate clinical lead Connie Beauchamp (Amanda Mealing) takes over his case and gives him a stern talking to! Feeling he’s a danger, Ethan writes a letter of resignation to Connie confessing he killed Scott!

While Connie’s in her office reading Ethan’s confession, worn out Ethan is on the hospital roof contemplating that he’s a killer… Will he do something drastic?
