    • Storyline 1: The Streets start cleaning up


    The streets are reeling from the main stash being hit. “Any body who could hurt you could be put into play”. They write a list of people and start ticking them off.. including Wallace


    Storyline 2: The politics people get scared


    Political candidates start handing back campaign financing as they are scared that it would lead to allegations of corruption. 


    Storyline 3: The police are aware of the clean up 


    They try their best to protect people once they realise that the streets are trying to clean up. They cannot protect Wallace. As the wire is down they look to bug Orlandos.
