Plot

Chief Inspector Sam Song (Sonija Kwok), Sergeant Yiu Lai Fa (Charmaine Sheh), and Bowie Tong (Shirley Yeung) are members of the Counter-Terrorist Unit (CTU). Together, they collaborate to solve cases against domestic and international terrorists. Major cases include:

• Lee Chin Jun (Ram Tseung) is a small cafe employee, who Bowie befriends, but resorts to anthrax when his world is turned upside down. Days after his wife joins him in Hong Kong, she is raped by Jun's boss and subsequently hit by a car. After his wife's death, he falls into a state of depression and, finding a tube of anthrax in his son's backpack placed their by the initial anthrax culprit, decides to use the anthrax to get revenge on his boss and the gangster responsible for his wife's death. Soon, even his son is taken away from him by social services because he had started physically abusing his son. On the day of their hearing, Jun takes his own son by force and Bowie is ordered by Sam to neutralize him on the street.
• Lee Tin Wah (Stephen Au) isn't a terrorist but he crosses paths with CTU due to his role as a private bodyguard-for-hire. His low opinions of cops causes a rift between him and CTU, especially Fa, who was tasked to protect the same policitian as he was hired to protect. Despite differing personalities and methods, they're able to work together and keep the politician safe.
• Lin Hok Man (Shek Sau) is a businessman by day and illegal fire arms trader by night. Previously, Sam had sent an undercover cop to investigate Lin Hok Man, leading to the cop's death. Though this upsets Sam greatly, her superiors order her to send in another undercover cop to finish the job and she reluctantly chooses Fa. Initially, they think Fa has successfully become Lin Hok Man's girlfriend but, being a careful man, he figures out her identity and sends his bodyguard to kill Fa while he destroys all evidence of his shady deals. Lin Hok Man is arrested, tried, and sentenced to prison for breaking maritime and business law, knowing that will grant him a lighter verdict. However, after serving out his sentence, Lin Hok Man returns with a vengeance. He even hires Lee Tin Wah to be his new bodyguard and successfully bribes one of CTU's own to help him with his plan for revenge.

Despite the unending day-to-day at CTU, Sam, Fa, and Bowie find themselves caught up in love quarrels, love triangles, situationships, etc. However, in the end, their friendship withstands all trials and the three women continue to live their lives independent of any men.
