"Safe Harbours"
Synopsis:
Sabrina Sohal is a star rookie police officer who must grapple with the limits of the justice system as she fights to exonerate her falsely accused politician father, and serve her diverse hometown alongside a veteran training officer who sees her potential but doesn’t always agree with her forward-thinking methods. This is the story of a young woman caught between her allegiance to her flag, to her badge, and to her family. It is about identity and belonging, policing and politics, and finding truth within the heart of a flawed justice system.
Episode Synopsis:
A motel theft brings Sabrina and Vince into a deeper network of human trafficking... with suspicion landing on Jenab, the motel handler for the temporary foreign workers. After Jenab disables their patrol car and goes on the run, the rookie and TO race to find her, eventually arresting her on her way to the airport where they learn she's not everything she seemed. These new discoveries send them on the trail of a labour trafficking kingpin preparing to go underground while holding terrified, exploited women hostage. Meanwhile, as Ishaan and Kyle prepare to undertake a dangerous mission to discover who framed Ajeet, a sudden act of violence against the Sohal home has them thinking twice about the potential consequences of investigating white supremacists.
