Episode 8 • Jul 25, 2009
Episode #1.8
Ellie and her friends tell Gil the whole story and are taken into custody. Two London detectives arrive, looking for them, but a village delegation, led by Ina and Dean - still in love with Shoo,even though she is not pregnant -impressed by the women's influence, persuade Gil to deny all knowledge of them, after which he resigns. Euan moves into the hotel and digs up Billy's corpse from under the floor-boards,taking it to a shed, unaware that Anne Marie is watching. The shock sends her into early labour and Ellie delivers her baby. Whilst Anne Marie is in hospital and everyone else at Ina's divorce party Ellie finds the corpse. Euan tells her that he killed Katie, with whom he was having an affair. Billy blundered onto the scene and fought with Ronan. Ronan only stunned Billy but Euan finished him off, leading Ronan to think he was the killer, so that Euan had a hold over the boy. Euan is about to kill Ellie but is knocked out by Roy, who has negotiated a release to help the police find the missing money. Roy claims that he wants reconciliation but Ellie notices his gun,is wary and drugs his drink. Hannah sees them and calls the other women. They jump Roy and his gun goes off, killing him. This time round the girls are very good at putting a corpse into the loch. Euan is arrested on Anne Marie's evidence. She and Gil agree to make a go of things, as he is the father of her baby, and they will run the hotel together. The villagers comfort a tearful Dean, who has lost his Shoo as she,Sadie, Ellie, Josie and Hannah escape to the Cayman Islands where they unlock Roy's hidden millions. A closing caption tells us that they are still on the run but that the millions, and a tan, help them cope.
