When David calls into the cafe he's shocked to hear Shona didn't show up for work. It's his turn to panic as he realises this could be serious.

He rushes to the police station and tells Kit that first the dog was run over and now Shona's gone missing and he thinks Harvey Gaskell is behind it all.

Later, David tells the family that he's going to move out, as he thinks he's the one Harvey really wants.

But he admits to Nick that unless he can come up with the money to repay Harvey, the whole family is in danger.

Is he right?
