Billy tells the police Andrew mentioned a fight with Heather when they were in the Vic. Shirley concludes she deleted Heather’s voicemail but remembers Heather saying Andrew was at the door. Ben’s horrified when Ian guiltily admits he told the police Ben lied. After a sleepless night, Billy arrives - Heather’s body’s being moved.  As the Mitchells watch Heather’s body being wheeled out, Phil runs around the corner and vomits. Ben follows, telling him it’s over. 
Rose lies that she and Andrew were playing bridge all afternoon. At the police station, Andrew tells DS Crisp he and Heather planned to elope.

Although Andrew insists the wedding money was stolen by a tramp, Crisp accuses Andrew of stealing it and arrests him for Heather’s murder.
