Peter tracks down Simon's teacher and asks for his mobile. After failing to hack the code, he smashes it with a hammer and cuts up the SIM card.

When he accesses his missed messages, he discovers what Peter was trying to hide - a panicky voicemail from the night of Ken's attack, saying he has messed up and has to go away.
