Developers of a new seal oil based nutraceutical come to the Doyles after developing suspicions that their production line may have been contaminated. The Newfoundland Seal Oil Co. Ltd. suspect that their competitors in the cod liver oil industry may want to put the kibosh on the development of a new competitor product. The company is particularly worried about the issue because they are only a few days away big pharmacy chain pitch - and they need to be able to show the store owners that they can supply them with the required volume of product.
Jake and Mal decide the best approach would be to send Tinny and Des undercover as factory workers. Almost as soon as they arrive Tinny and Des learn that the company has more problems than just it's competitors, but they also have a hostile union that seems to be willing to go to any end to negotiate a better contract for its workers.
Only tried and true detective work will help the Doyles figure out if the culprits are the competitors or the union. Or is it someone else?
Not surprisingly, the culprit turns out to be the person you least suspected - the factory owner's wife.

This one actually sounds plausible. It needs some time-travel.
Stop saucing.
