When Liam disappears, Chas becomes the center of her grief.

She doesn’t understand what happened, only the empty house, the half-finished cup of coffee, and the short letter lying on the table.

In the dim light, Chas reads the scribbled lines over and over again – each sentence like a knife cutting into her heart.

In the next episode, the audience sees Chas searching for every trace of Liam: the doctor’s stethoscope, the prescription, the jacket he left behind.

She tries to hold back her tears, but her voice trembles as she tells Cain: “He would never do that without a reason.” Cain just looks at her, sighs softly: “Maybe he wants to suffer alone.”

Chas rushes outside, running along the dirt road leading out of the village, calling Liam’s name in the heavy rain. The scene slows down: raindrops mix with tears, her feet slip but she still struggles to stand up. Chas screams, “Don’t make me find you like this!” — and the sound fades into the night.

The episode uses silence to tell the story. There’s no background music, just heavy breathing and the sound of rain. When Chas returns home, she sees the ring Liam left in the cupboard and collapses to the floor. No one says anything, but the viewer understands: it’s the moment she completely breaks down.

In the final scene, Chas sits in the Woolpack pub, staring out the door, hoping he’ll come back. A customer walks in, and she’s startled — but it’s just a stranger. Her eyes go dark. The viewer feels it clearly: the loss isn’t just a man, it’s a belief in love.
