Party Tricks

State Premier Kate Ballard is startled when the Opposition reveals its new election candidate David McLeod; but what the public doesn't know is that Kate and David share a secret past.

Terror-stricken of the consequences of their secret leaking to the public, Kate smoothly enlists the help of her trusted speechwriter Ollie to organise a covert meeting with David.

David's teenage daughter steps into the spotlight while caught in a scandal, triggering a media storm that may have destroyed David's campaign.

David McLeod and Kate Ballard hit the campaign trail in Victoria; Kate tries to improve her public image but Tom's actions could derail her entire campaign.

Kate now has to come clean to her husband Geoff about her secret past with David; this will either jeopardise her marriage or ruin her chances of an election victory.

The combination of his campaign and the revelations about his past appear to have taken their toll on David, while on the other side of town, Kate's team make their final preparations for the election.
