Mobeen receives a surprise visit from the armed police, who arrest his friend Eight on suspicion of supplying drugs to school children in Small Heath - based on the description of an 'Asian male in jogging bottoms'. The real culprit is Shahid, a local dealer who's enlisted his mum's cousin's cousin - 14 year-old Kareema - to move his gear. But Mobeen refuses to snitch. When Kareema asks Mobeen's little sister Aks to help her hide the drugs from the police, she follows her brother's example. When Mobeen finds out, he has no other option than to go looking for Shahid - but will his actions have more drastic consequences?

Staring hate, violence and societal fractures in the face, Mobeen and his crew see the far right in their truest form, at an anti-Islam demonstration. After Aks throws a flask and hits the leader Robbie Tomlinson square in the face, Mobeen takes the blame and is arrested. He's then accidentally placed in the same police van as Robbie. As Mobeen and Robbie go head to head inside the van, outside the van (and much to Aks's dismay) Eight and Nate desperately need to go to the toilet but can't escape the police cordon. Eventually they decide to brave the toilet in the only pub for miles around, which is packed with skinheads from the demonstration.

It's Aks's prom night, but will Mobeen let her go?

With rumours about the debauchery at previous proms and the threat of a stabbing, Mobeen must safeguard her at any cost. Things get complicated when a classmate of Aks's, Ridwan, makes some very unwise decisions that leave Mobeen very concerned. Eight, meanwhile, is in danger of getting in too deep with a local wide boy and he is potentially going to drag everyone down with him. Can Mobeen manage to keep everyone out of trouble?

When Aks breaks her shoulder and heads for hospital with the boys, Accident and Emergency is the state of play. With Mobeen, Eight and Nate looking shifty de facto, the authorities start to get suspicious about how Aks may have sustained her injuries. In the waiting room, we see life in an overstretched A&E, and the gang in a constant battle to prove their innocence, battle prejudice and, of course, keep Pakistani Rain Man (Eight) out of trouble.

Mobeen and Aks must demonstrate their commitment to a good cause to prevent her being excluded from school. This involves attending the funeral of Mobeen’s former teacher - but when drug a deal goes wrong at the church, Mobeen has bigger things to worry about.

With a hit out on Officer Harper, Mobeen steps in to try and save his life and take him out of the firing line. Eight and Nate must stall Harper’s assassin long enough for Mobeen and Harper to escape through the woods.

Mobeen and Nate are just weeks from the end of their sentence, but Mobeen’s work as one of the prison’s 'listeners' gets him into trouble with a terrifying inmate from another wing - a man known simply as Megalodon. Megalodon is determined to get a transfer to Mobeen’s wing so he can confront him about meddling in his business.

Mobeen has landed himself in the prison infirmary, where he also has a mission – to befriend a man known as 'Memory Stick' and convince him to hand over vital information. In the infirmary, he also encounters a doctor, Nida, and there’s an instant spark between her and Mobeen. Nida also suggests she can help Aqsa with a placement for her medical degree, which she is thrilled with. Aqsa also receives some characteristically unhelpful advice from prison chaplain Uncle Shady.

Megalodon is now on Mobeen’s wing, and Mobeen must avoid him at all costs – which means trying not to leave his cell. Harper instantly makes Mobeen leave the cell to go and see Dr Nida. Nida now has Aqsa working alongside her, and has even managed to secure her an international placement in the UAE. But despite avoiding Megalodon, Harper and Mobeen fail to get any more information about Memory Stick.

Megalodon throws the prison into a full-blown riot. Mobeen, Nate and Harper split off into different groups. Mobeen is concerned with Dr Nida’s safety, while also keen to keep Memory Stick on side. Uncle Shady ends up with Memory Stick, with both of them desperately trying to evade Megalodon and a wing full of rioting inmates.
