It's pretty obvious who took the money from the Rover's safe as a) Will is surprisingly chill about going to live in Scotland and b) Sean wouldn't take the money: he needs the job, not for the minimum wage, but for the chance to show off his superlative shackets to all and sundry. In the olden days, we'd have had a whole episode on whether the Rovers should move to card only. Sean tries to flounce out but doesn't get as far as the front door. Did anyone notice that the Rovers is now selling chicken shawarma tacos!? A far cry from hot pot.
Anyhoo, Will is still planning to leave with Megan; what Megan is planning is anyone's guess. He goes to the station in a cab driven by Tim and I guess we'll find out how to gives Mr Metcalfe the slip in Tuesday's ep.
"I've got nothing on you in knocking off sisters," David points out to Nick who is querying his tale of accidentally getting into bed with Jodie. Her attempt to steal David from Shona is not going well since he wants her out of the house. Jodie, instead of getting a room in a student house or whatever, decides to move into Ken's in a Parasite sort of way whilst he's at a meditation class. Don't, like, four other people live there too? She's presumably after the spare keys to Daniel's flat, so it looks like both of them are in for a bit of a surprise.
In the meantime, Sam, having been unable to persuade the reluctant Hope to go watch a meteor shower with him, grabs his telescope and goes off in the daylight (?) to the Red Rec, only interrupted by Evil Will (a.k.a Sam's imagination) and he runs away, smashing his 'scope.
