He didn't think this one through, along with all of the other absurd attempts to create an alibi. By this time, he supposedly knew Karen was missing, she didn't attend her workplace, both cars were at home, and he "went Uber driving". So according to his version of events, his car was behind Karen's when she had walked out 'through the garage' in winter with no socks or shoes on to 'clear her head', he swapped them around so he could take her car to get quotes at 2 garages to fix the fuel gauge and/or fill it with petrol which he decided later that he hadn't actually done. He subsequently remembered he actually took her car for a drive to fix the fuel gauge, missed a few turn offs as would be expected

(sounds like Pinocchio's driving record), and low and behold, wait for it, drum roll please, it was fixed, all by itself

It seems luck was on his side. But suddenly his phone either went flat or he turned it off so he couldn't share this great news with Karen. Funnily enough, Karen's phone appeared to be also in the car. So it seems Karen, a self-employed business woman, expected at work in several hrs, after a 'fight with her husband about finances', had walked out through the garage in winter with no socks or shoes on to 'clear her head' without her mobile phone. So he drove home, didn't miss any turn offs, and organised a replacement staff at Bella Bleu in place of Karen. Then he swapped the cars around and went to do some Ubering, and even though his phone was now back on, he couldn't get the app to work. Luckily for him, Karen had bleached the ensuite shower and left her rings behind before she left which he felt was a priority and important to advise the Police straight up.
