Don is about to shave his moustache off. "Bit premature isn't it?" says Frankie.
"Job's done. I Thought I'd smarten up a bit then you and me can go out on the town." Frankie's not keen on the idea. She's worried that Don will be recognised. "What they going to say, Frankie? I've just seen Lazarus?"
Frankie refuses to go with him. "I'm not going to risk being slammed up, just so you can get all nostalgic!"
DS Peters and DCI Belmarsh are agreeing that the robbery was an inside job, and that the manger, granaski, was involved. Ray takes a call. Somebody wants to meet him.

It turns out to be Clare. She tells him that she now has a job with Ethox Security. "That's a long way from CIB," Ray remarks.
"You hear about Australia?"
"Don Beech?"
"After that, I fancied a change."
"Well, he's dead now."
"I'd rather have seen him in the dock actually." She wants to swap information. She mentions that she's got to find the documents. She doesn't know what they look like, just what the container looks like. "Anything else to go on?"
"Maybe. Give me one good reason why I should tell you."
"Because I am a really nice person. Didn't we once have a snog?" He laughs. "Anything I find out I'll tell you." He tells her about the possible bomb connection and that there were four people, got away on motorcycles and Granaski is a suspect. She asks for Granaski's address, pointing out that she'll get it anyway. He gives it to her on condition that she shares info too.

Tommy's gone round to see Don and Frankie. She opens another bottle of champagne. He tells them his estimation of the value of the stolen goods: £6.5 million, not including a painting.

Meanwhile, Clare is going through some of her things form her days as a police officer, and listening to the son that she and John last listened together. She takes out her old warrant card.
Rachel answers a call for Tommy from Gerry Spiller, Don's old solicitor. She puts the call through to him downstairs, and then goes over to Stella. "What's going on with Granddad, Mum?"
"It's nothing to do with you, Rachel."

Granaski's being interviewed by DS Peters and DCI Belmarsh. He insists that the robbers were disguised.
"Let's talk about security," says Peters. "The cameras, who switched them off?"
"They did."
"How did they know what to do?"
"I don't know."
"OK, so you went into the room. What happened then?...The person with a gun, were they in front of you? Behind you?"
"I'm sorry..."

Clare's outside Granaski's house in her car. She listens to hers and John's song, until she can't bear it anymore and switches it off. Just then Granaski is dropped off. His son rushes out to greet him and they both go inside.
Clare gets out of the car, and goes to ring the bell. When Granaski opens the door she flashes her old warrant card and he lets her. They both go into the living room.
"Mr Granaski, I'm not from the police, but if I was you I'd listen very carefully because it might just save your thieving arse." Granaski begins to protest, and his son interrupts them to show him a cake. Granaski sends him out. "Now, I work for a very, very rich Arab, and the money you and your friends have stolen is pocket money to him."
Granaski snorts. "What money?"
"But," Clare continues, "He does want some documents that you took from his security box and he will go to any lengths to get them back. Now, at the moment I'm his first line of attack, but if I fail he's going to nasty, and he's going to start really hurting you, your wife, your lovely little boy..." Granaski warns her to stay away from his family. "Easy, it's not me. I'm here to offer you hard cash."
He thinks about this for a second. "No, this is a set-up. You are the police. There's no Arab." Clare points out that this would all be entrapment and that no judge would convict him if she was a police officer collecting evidence this way.
"Shut the door," She tells him. "All I want is the documents, and in return my client is offering you £200,000 in cash...I bet it's more than you got paid for the job." She explains that there will be police surveillance on him and he's to be and arrange whatever he needs to do.
