The final episode of Spin Doctors jumps in at the deep end. It's day three of a Te Ao Māori immersion course, and Giles Peter's public relations team aren't fully on board with the mahi (work). Then kuia Queenie (Whale Rider's Mabel Wharekura-Burt) arrives, inspiring Ron to embrace his whakapapa while advising Giles about getting the 'best' out of the Māori-Pakeha relationship. Meanwhile two team members sneak off for a clandestine meeting with Tranz Rail, and Liz (Elizabeth Hawthorne) contemplates running away with her horsey Hawkes Bay fiancé (Ian Harcourt). Emily Barclay (pre In My Father's Den) plays Giles' daughter.
