'Grantchester' Season 5, Episode 5 Recap: Father Figures

Grantchester opens with the weekly eucharist, Will and Leonard presiding. But somewhere in dark alleys, there's a man on the run, begging someone to take his money. As Vic and Marie round up his gang after church, Mrs. Butler thanks them (and Will) for taking care of her son.

As Marie quietly thanks Will for being a friend to Vic, down at the station, the beaten gentleman in question, Walter Burrows (Rupert Holliday-Evans), has come to report his mugging. However, he refuses to give any details, suggesting he's only doing it to appease the wife sitting next to him.

Ellie: Will Davenport, will you marry me?
Will: ...No.
Ellie: See? Now we're even.
