Back home, a maudlin Ian starts drinking a bottle of single malt, telling Masood without Jane he’s nothing. Masood phones Kathy but by the time she arrives Ian’s gone, leaving a smashed framed photo of himself and Jane behind. Concerned, Kathy and Masood rush outside only to see Ian driving away...
