The game was finally up for silk-stealing Rob - though it remains difficult to care anything about the world's most boring rogue.
Carla gave her brother his marching orders from his share in the knicker-factory, although he pleaded, unconvincingly, that she owed him for all his hard work: "I bust a gut for Underworld."
There was an attempt to justify Rob's bad behaviour and to finally give him a personality as he recalled his unhappy childhood and that Carla was always his parents' favourite, but it was all too little, too late.
And I' m afraid the actor who plays him remains wooden and unconvincing. Doesn't help that he is paired with the equally unconvincing pantomine villainess Tracy.
Meanwhile Sally was hoping to show she is not "beige" in character (you're not actually, love, that's Stella) and show off her "dynamic, mysterious and witty" side to her forthcoming internet blind date.
Sounds like an opportunity for some nice comedic scenes, bring it on!
And the ever nice. long suffering Tommy Duckworth redeclared his love for Tina and she for him, following the birth of her premature surrogate child in what was quite a touching, heartfelt, gentle scene - aah.
Can anyone remember why Tina needed the money - it never seems to be mentioned at all nowadays. Something to do with paying off Tommy's debts, but whether they were to Tyrone or to drug smugglers, or Terry Duckworth, I can't really recall.
Like I said, it all seems to be forgotten.
Anyway, nice she's back together with Tommy.
Izzy said she would "forgive but never forget" Gary's amorous moves on Tina.
And Karl became uncomfortable as Dev declared he wanted answers from the police and believed Sunita to be guiltless.
The truth will out, Karl.
