The 'Grantchester' Season 7 Finale Calls a Surprise Snap Wedding

The Grantchester finale does not open with a 1950s-era hit; instead, Will talks Baker through the stained glass images in the church. For once, I feel bad for Baker, despite his inherent creepiness, as Will's just narcissistically reflecting on what a screw-up he is. He heads off to see Bonnie, where he does his Will thing, assuming he knows how she feels and telling her what that is, in case she wasn't following his predetermined emotional journey map. Bonnie tells him she and Ernie are heading back home since there's nothing for her here anyway. Will completely misses this is where he's supposed to say "there could be," and rides off to apologize to Wallace.

Larson: That suits your narrative vicar; repentence, redemption. But let's be honest, who changes, really?

Wallace is not impressed and does an admirable of not telling Will to screw off, but Will's guilt-assuaging behaviors will have to wait, as will his prayers for Mrs. C, which she loudly ignores. A body's been found, and unfortunately, it's another vagrant. It's got all the same hallmarks of the previous murders, but it can't be a copycat, as Geordie never revealed those details to the press, which means Robin had an accomplice — or was never guilty in the first place. Geordie and Will pay a visit to talk to Robin, but he's committed suicide. Though Dr. Flemming (Robert Timothy Maskell) says he was responding to meds, the orderly, Kenneth (Callum Sheridan-Lee), admits he told Robin about the new murder that morning, which set him off muttering.
