When it emerged that Corey had laced chocolates for Irene with deadly poison, the hunt was on to not only catch him but to get to Irene before it was too late. Jack arrived just in the nick of time and saved Irene from possible tragedy, but Corey was still on the loose with Martha. Corey knew Jack was getting suss, but had to pretend to be normal around girlfriend Martha, so decided to take her on a picnic in the middle of the bush. He wasn't able to keep up the act for long, however, as Martha discovered mercury in his bag whilst looking for a wine bottle. She was able to phone Jack briefly but was grabbed by Corey. With the sound of sirens in the distance, Martha knew help was on the way but a struggle ensued and she was almost caught on some barbed wire. She was able to use this to her advantage, however, and trapped Corey until Jack came to the rescue. When they returned to where Corey was, they discovered he'd escaped and was on the loose again. He then grabbed Martha and put her in a headlock before threatening to harm her if Jack didn't put his gun down. Following his demands, Jack threw the gun as far as could, giving Martha an opportunity to escape from Corey's clutches. Jack was then able to handcuff Corey and take him down the station.

Embarrisingly for a cop, Sergeant McGrath had to ask him to go out.

Martha was with him at the time and didn't feel comfortable staying, so they went home. But, even though he'd promised not to, Jack couldn't resist going to the shed again later. It turned out to be a bad decision, however, with Jack being knocked unconscious - by Peter!

It was only when Tracey Thomson and other police arrived that Jack was safe and reunited with Martha, who had been busy wedding-planning all day.

Jack is outside the bank when the message about a robbery comes through
When Jack and his partner on duty George Watson received a radio call detailing a robbery, they were suprised to find themselves just over the road from the place in question. Or at least Jack was suprised.

George then turned the gun on Jack and shot him in the chest, leaving him in a coma for days.
Jack arrests Roman

Even though the van wasn't his, Jack still took matters into his own hands and even charged Roman with assaulting a police officer when he grabbed his hand.
