A stranger arrives in Emu Springs. Who is he? Whoever he is, it's clear he's not impressed with the local radio station 3ES where Ryan is in the chair and station manager Helen Virtue is enchanted with the rhythms of the Tango. Julia Rutherford tries to organise a forthcoming ball but her committee members are more interested in the arrogant new arrival. It's Ryan and the ambitious Megan McGregor who finally put a name to the face and a voice to the man. It's Golden Tonsils himself, Tom Dooley.

After Tom narrowly avoids colliding with Dr Eva's rail trolley, he uses the airways to vent his road rage. He challenges her right to use the line and her professional approach as a doctor.
