Pregnant Billie is in labour but she and VJ are stranded when the car breaks down en route to the hospital! Their mobiles don't work and, worse still, a bushfire has been started by the serial arsonist who's at large in the Bay…

Having had a row with VJ about the baby, stressed-out Billie has gone into labour and needs to get to hospital ASAP. But as VJ is driving his girlfriend to the maternity ward the car breaks down! When they fail to get a signal on their mobiles, the situation looks bleak for the couple as the Bay's serial arsonist has started a bushfire which is sweeping through the outback…

Can VJ get Billie to safety? Will she have the baby? And will other locals such as Evie, Hunter and Marilyn survive the fiery ordeal?
