In this part, I put the story pieces together, highlighting the intersection between individual tragedies — and raising big questions about the characters’ futures.

Abi walks out of her marriage, Carl stands on the sidelines, Aadi confesses her secret, Glenda fights to keep the shop — but have they ever seen each other in the dark?

Kevin, suspecting Carl of having an affair with Abi, may go to the Rovers to see Carl — and accidentally catch Glenda signing the transfer papers.

Abi, going to the Rovers to forget her sadness, picks up the new owner’s paper.

Aadi, in a state of panic, runs into the Rovers to find a hiding place — meets Glenda in the middle of a deserted, dimly lit shop.

Imagined scene: Abi — walks into the shop — sees Carl talking to Glenda at the bar, their eyes flicker — Abi is silent. Carl looks at her, turns away. Glenda looked up, saw Abi — her heart beating fast — “What are you doing here?” Abi choked: “I… just want some peace.” Aadi appeared behind Abi — walking slowly, his eyes mischievous. The atmosphere was still.

In another scene, Dev went to Rovers to talk to Glenda about Aadi — he overheard Glenda talking about the restaurant transfer — he thought: “Is Glenda using money to cover up my family’s secret?” Abi, Carl, Aadi, Glenda — four people who once thought they had separate stories, were now drawn into a tense game.
