Chas and Robert try to put a positive spin on Gordon's death but Aaron is having none of it. Finn doubts Emma's story as he looks for a place to rent in Aberdeen, but after seeing the price of rents Pete suggests they bunk in together. Aaron struggles to cope with not knowing what was in the letter and whether Gordon was sorry for what he did or not. Chas tracks Liv down to the village hall, where she's feeling guilty for wishing Gordon dead now that he is. Liv questions if Gordon was killed as pedophiles aren't popular in prison. Chas assures Liv it's okay to feel sad. Vanessa and Rhona discuss Carly's crush on Pierce. Aaron is annoyed to find Robert at the scrapyard. Robert tells him he read the letter. Nicola sets Jai up with Carly, and Rishi encourages him to go for it. Aaron is annoyed Robert kept the contents of the letter from him but Robert cannot believe Aaron cares that Gordon is dead.

When Jai returns, Charity takes great delight in informing her ex-husband that Nicola has paid Carly to talk to him. Ashley and Amelia help prepare the church for Edna's funeral. Jimmy cannot believe Nicola cheated to win the bet. Jai insults Charity as Megan arrives withe Eliza. Chas approaches Cain and asks him if her arranged Gordon's death. Cain insists he didn't' but suggests Robert could, as he has the money and the motive to do so. Rishi catches Jai with a bottle of whiskey. Rishi reassures Jai that he is not undatable, so Jai asks Rishi to find him a wife, like he found Rakesh for Priya. Pete quizzes why Ross is so up for working together, but Ross reminds him that he will be driving a cab, and Pete will be on the switch. Aaron tells Chas and Cain about the letter.
