The Damnation of Harvey McHugh

Whatever Happened To Baby X (1x4)

: 16, 1994

The Minister is angry with Judge Brown because he turned the whole Board of Directors against him, which kept him from becoming president of the Australia Club. He also feels threatened by him because he wants to investigate the lift accident. The Minister is also upset about the fact Australian industries are booming at a record high when he has been trying to clean up the city to stage the first United Nations World Pollution Conference in Australia. This could ruin the Minister internationally and locally if the conference is not a total success. He insists it would take a national strike to halt this boom. Harvey has fallen in love with Mary, a judge's associate. Mary is smart, funny and beautiful, but is not all she seems. Whilst Harvey who has been to work in the family court is looking after a frozen embryo, which is the centre of a custody dispute the power to the building gets cut off. Harvey takes the embryo home, which is a breach of demarcation even though Mary advises him against it. The Minister again plans to use Harvey and the situation, to get the pollution levels down and make him look good over the PM in the press.
