Plot
James finds Adam has slept in the hay barn overnight. News of Donna's death reaches the Hotten Courier. Marlon wants to find out from the police why Donna was operating alone. Adam's unnerved when Cain tells him the police have him on CCTV with Aaron but refuses to say anything. Cain and Moira drag him round to speak to Aaron. Zak and Chas lie to Paddy as he asks if they have any news on Aaron being back in the country. Ross drops the money from the job off outside Tall Trees Cottage and tries to slip away but April catches him and questions him on where Donna is. Adam finally admits to Moira and Cain about the job with Donna and Ross and how he was supposed to be a lookout. Ross tells April that she can't tell anyone that he left the money as she takes the bag back inside. Marlon and Laurel are shocked as they discover April with a bag crammed with money. April admits that a friend of Donna's from the garage gave it to her. Marlon and Laurel believe she is meaning Cain. Debbie discovers from Cain that Aaron's back. Bob continues to struggle to deal with Donna's death and avoids seeing April. Ross discovers Adam's hiding at Butler's Farm and leaves to confront him. Jimmy warns Charity about Megan wanting him to spy on her. Charity is furious. Ross bursts into Butler's Farm and confronts Adam, spilling the details on the job that went wrong and resulted in Donna's death to Moira and Cain in the process. Marlon arrives in the middle of the argument and works out Ross was responsible for leaving the money. Aaron gives James a piece of his mind when Chas introduces him to him. He tells James that Ross roped Adam into the robbery and he's taking him back to France with him. Charity plots her revenge on Megan. Ross taunts Marlon with the news that Donna was bent and helping him carry out robberies. He adds that he was there when she died and that they were more than just partners in crime and were planning to run away together with April. Brenda tries to get Bob to lean on her for support through his grieving. Marlon struggles to digest the news that Donna was corrupt and a liar and threatens to call the police. Ross tells him to go ahead, stating if he goes down he'll take Adam with him.
