Time runs out for Stephen?
When Audrey attempts to talk to Elaine about her alleged depression, Elaine instead confesses that she thinks Stephen doesn't love her. Meanwhile, Stephen scribbles out a note in Elaine's handwriting and stashes it away. He's later left panicking when Elaine suggests that they call the wedding off, but he manages to convince her that they should take a trip to the Peak District.

As they prepare to leave for the Peak District, Elaine spies a family photo and realises that the woman on the Zoom call with Stephen was in fact his ex-wife and not a business contact as he claimed. Elaine rushes to Tim and tells him that she thinks Stephen has been lying to her all this time. They're both horrified when Tim goes through Stephen's belongings and finds the forged life insurance documents.
