The Northern Lights Festival is in full swing, leaving Arctic Air short-staffed and Loreen scrambling to recruit any employee sober enough to work, and dumb enough to answer his phone. A few hours away in the remote community of Sibbeston Lake, Mel's romantic rendezvous with Rita is cut short when her son, Brandon, overdoses on tainted drugs. Worried that the drugs entered the community via Arctic Air, Bobby interrogates an employee and confirms his worst fear - his airline is being used to smuggle drugs. Meanwhile, bad weather makes it impossible for Krista and Blake to medevac Brandon to Yellowknife. Mel puts his own life on the line in a heroic attempt to save Rita's son.
