The DI was already feeling the heat after being ordered to lose a member of his team by the obnoxious Mr Smith from administrative planning, due to "unavoidable budget cuts", and he certainly didn't need his mother-in-law – now set to be "overseeing his activities" – making matters even more complicated.
Yet, in a glorious twist of fate, Anne's intrusion into Humphrey's work turned out to be exactly what he needed.
"Something didn't ring true to me," she said during an emergency meeting she convened with her son-in-law, Mr Smith and the powers that be.
Her suspicions deepened during a golfing day attended by Mr Smith, where she clocked him being overly friendly with a DI from another station – the only officer of that rank invited – prompting her to do some sleuthing of her own.
By contrast, council records showed that the other station had received an increase by the exact same amount that Shipton Abbott was being asked to lose.
After reading a number of flirty messages between Mr Smith and his mistress, Anne wasn't in any doubt that his financial decision-making was being driven by something else entirely, before securing the piste de resistance: a photo of Mr Smith snogging his fancy woman during a surveillance operation with Martha and Kelby.
He promptly scurried from the room, his career (and most likely his marriage) in tatters, as Humphrey was reinstated in his rightful place after the station's budget was restored.
Now, onto the next big dilemma: who's going to save Humphrey when Anne comes for his job?
