Of course, it was Sonia who took Dot’s money to help Martin out of a bad situation. However, Martin covered for Sonia and took the flack, explaining to her he didn’t want to lose his best friend. He said this was the least he could do for his ex-wife. The end result was Dot asking Martin to leave, while telling him she didn’t want to get the police involved.

However, as Martin headed out to the allotment shed, Sonia’s conscience got the better of her. She decided to head over to Dot’s house to confess everything. When she got there, there was no sign of Dot. All she found was a note addressed to her, along with a recorded message. In the message, Dot exlained she was going to Ireland to be with Charlie for the birth of his baby.
