That's the impression I got, too.

EastEnders star Cheryl Fergison has revealed that her character Heather Trott "couldn't be happier" when Andrew Cotton proposes to her in an upcoming episode.
Andrew, played by Ricky Grover, starts to behave strangely later this month - but Heather is later thrilled to discover that it's because he has been secretly looking at engagement rings.
Fergison told All About Soap: "He tells Heather he has to go and fix Dot's leaky tap, but she discovers he's lying. Her mind goes into overdrive and she's convinced he must be involved in dodgy dealings. She's been let down so many times before, and her initial reaction is to fly off the handle."
"In the end, he proposes with a plastic washer from Dot's tap," she continued. "Heather's thrilled, though, and couldn't be happier - the ring could have been from a lucky-dip bag and she'd have still said yes. She can't believe her luck."
Fergison added that the couple are likely to have a budget wedding if their big day goes ahead.
"It will all be done on a shoestring, but they'll want it to look like the whole William-and-Kate affair," she said. "As for her dress, I'm sure with Mrs Branning and Mrs Cotton interfering, it could be anything from a lacy number to a meringue.
"Whatever they pick, it won't be very Heather-ish and it'll be completely out of her hands. She won't mind - as long as the family pull together to make it a special day, she'll be happy."
TROUBLED Ben Mitchell turns cold-blooded killer as he murders Heather Trott in a shock new EastEnders plot.
Viewers will see the teen leave hapless Hev's flat with his hands dripping in blood.
But no one spots Ben, and later his dad Phil tries to destroy the evidence.
The killing, after a row between Heather and Ben, spawns a new storyline between Phil and girlfriend Shirley. Devastated by the loss of her pal, she suspects his involvement.
Hev's bloody exit was filmed by actress Cheryl Fergison on Tuesday and characters in the frame for her killing will also include Darren Miller and Ian Beale.
Cheryl was devastated to be told her contract was not being renewed.
She then hoped for a heart-warming exit storyline — with an A-list cameo from her character's idol George Michael.
An EastEnders source said: "Heather's exit stuns the Square. Everyone is looking over their shoulder wondering who is responsible."
A show spokesman added: "Heather's life will go through various twists and turns over the next couple of months which will place numerous people in the frame."
Heather will be stunned when Andrew Cotton proposes to her — he also becomes a suspect.
Heather, who will be remembered for her headbands and love of cheese and karaoke, has a son George who was fathered by a then teenage Darren.
Cheryl's exit was cemented when bosses fell out with her over a newspaper story detailing her relationship with Moroccan toyboy lover Yassine Al-Jermini, 25.
They have since married and he has moved to Britain to live with her and her 12-year-old son Alex.
Ben Mitchell turns cold-blooded killer as he murders Heather Trott in a shock new EastEnders plot.
As there are already discussions on how and who murders her in the Heather Trotts Off thread, this does not come as as shock
Does this mean:
a) Ben is leaving?
b) The soap police display their usual incompetence and are unable to track down the murderer?
c) Tracyluv's lawyer defends Ben and gets him off?
Answers on a postcard please....
