Episode 1Tom Jackman's life is in tatters. Recently, he's been playing host to an uninvited guest - a dangerous alter-ego. Desperate to protect his wife and children from his dark side, Tom's been forced to leave his old life behind and strike a deal with his own devil.Tom's hired psychiatric nurse, Katherine Reimer, to oversee 'the change'. Meanwhile, his wife, Claire, brandishes a large envelope full of photographs at him. She's hired a private detective to find out why he left his family and his job six months ago, with no explanation. Tom's secretly puzzled - there must be more photos. He clocks the name of the agency and then has to tear himself away - Hyde's coming, and Hyde must never meet Claire. Later, Tom wakes up in a seedy flat with a prostitute, and no clue where he is. Tom goes to visit the company he jacked in months ago and Peter Symes, his best friend. Tom tells him to advertise his research job as he's never coming back. Despite a scheduled change due to happen, Tom realises he's a short distance from the detective agency and risks dropping in. Miranda Callender runs it and has suddenly come into a lot of money. But why was she paid off, by whom and why did she hold back some of the pictures? The clock's striking seven - the night shift's begun. A mysterious man called Benjamin approaches Hyde, claiming to be his 'owner'.

The next day, Tom catches up with Miranda, determined to find out why's she been bribed and why people in black vans are following him. Suddenly another unscheduled change takes place. Unaware, Miranda mentions Tom's wife and kids to Hyde.

Pretending to be Tom's 'cousin Billy', Hyde befriends Claire and the kids.

The following day, Jackman's horrified to learn that his family's lives are at risk...
