Macaulay is out. Furious at discovering the scale of the money being made behind his back, he walks away from the operation. For 18 months, he’s been running the lab, cooking up thousands of vials a week. He thought he and his dad were equal partners. Turns out he was just on a wage.\n\nThis final episode picks up with Macaulay in exile: angry and betrayed. He sends his dad a message: he’s not coming back unless he gets four times the pay. And, surprisingly, Andrew folds. He knows he can’t run this without his son. The business might be illegal, but it runs on trust. And right now, that trust is paper-thin.\n\nMacaulay comes back, this time with more money and more control. But just as they settle back into business, the police investigation takes a leap forward. The arrest of the distributor has led them to the dog groomers: a business being used to receive industrial quantities of steroid equipment.\n\nOne shipment of 20,000 empty vials is addressed to a man called Zsolt Kosma. The name looks fake, but analysts uncover bank records tied to it, with over £235k moving through in a single year. The identity turns out to be stolen - from a real Hungarian bodybuilder who has no idea his name is being used to launder steroid money in north Wales.\n\nThe deeper the analysts dig, the closer they get to the core of the operation. Telecoms data reveals a common thread: Andrew Dodd’s number is all over the network. It’s a breakthrough. As the police start closing in, paranoia begins to take hold.\n\nMacaulay, wired on steroids, becomes convinced they’re being watched. He thinks the neighbours are undercover officers. He can’t sleep. He’s convinced someone’s moved into the house opposite to spy on them. Whether it’s true or not almost doesn’t matter - he’s losing his grip.\n\nWe hear from steroid users who can’t stop, even after their health collapses. The drugs are physically addictive - mentally even more so. Lose the steroids, lose your body and ultimately your identity as a big man. Macaulay doesn’t know how to stop.\n\nMacaulay and Andrew’s fractious relationship continues to cause problems, and once the police knock on the door, there’s one last betrayal. Will they ever recover from this?
