01:02So, I heard you had a little spat with Jacob and made up.
01:08Chas might have filled me in.
01:10Cos she heard from Liam.
01:11She's only concerned.
01:12Right, well, she doesn't need to be.
01:13We've talked about it and he knows he was being an idiot.
01:16Oh, that was a bit harsh.
01:18Misguided, maybe?
01:19Well, no, I appreciate he was trying to put me first, but I would never expect him to turn down an opportunity like shadowing Liam at the dementia clinic. It's great for his career.
01:27Yeah, I know.
01:28And don't get me wrong, it is gonna be tricky trying to balance his studies with everything else, but we'll figure it out.
01:35But, I don't know, I just forget how grown up you are.
01:40You ready?
01:41Yeah.
01:42Oh, cool talk.
01:43What's the occasion?
01:44Oh, he's off to the hop with Johnny for a boys' day, aren't you?
01:47Yeah.
01:48Tell him what you're doing.
01:49Mountain biking and climbing.
01:50So he gets a nice day out and I get a guilt-free nap. Win-win.
01:54I can take him up if you like.
01:55Oh, would you?
01:56Yeah, we can grab a bacon butty on the way, you'll need the energy.
01:59Will Matt be back for my football game tomorrow?
02:02Er, I reckon so.
02:05When has he ever let you down?
02:07Right, come on you, let's get going if we're gonna have time to grab our butty.
02:10Have fun.
02:11Oh!
02:12Here, coat.
02:13Thanks.
02:20It's me again.
02:21Look, I've tried calling you, I've texted you and I'm getting nothing.
02:27I get why you're ignoring me but even Mattie said that you didn't show up for your shift.
02:31You were supposed to be back yesterday.
02:34Anyway, Moses really wants you at his game.
02:38Please, Mac, don't punish him because of me.
02:50I just want to be back.
02:51Oh, look, I've tried this.
02:52I got a goodяться today.
02:53I got a good start of the game now.
02:54And I'm so sorry.
02:55I didn't know about how he would do it.
02:56I don't know before.
02:57I got a good start of school.
02:58I've tried and it was too loud.
02:59It was a good start of the game.
03:00He's a sick one of me.
03:01It was a weirdo-
03:14I got a good start of with the game.
03:17Mac, it's me. Again. I've tried, called.
03:36Terrorising a kid? It's a special kind of evil, that one.
03:49I reckon Dylan's ears must be burning somewhere.
03:52Lola needs to watch out for the little thug.
03:54After everything April's been through, keeping that kind of company is a slippery slope.
03:59Oh, I'm sure he's got it under control.
04:01Can I have a hot chocolate to go when you're ready, please? Heavy on the chocolate.
04:05Yep.
04:06Oh.
04:06How's Cal holding up?
04:08Yeah.
04:09He's putting on a brave front for me and Isaac.
04:11We're just gonna have to take it one day at a time.
04:14Or until Cain gets home from Australia and gets his hands on Dylan.
04:17He was being for blood when I told him.
04:19Oh, great. I'm sure that'll be very interesting then.
04:21And how about you? How are you doing?
04:23Oh, you know, aside from the morning sickness and the fact my husband's given me the silent treatment
04:28and has ended our marriage by text, yeah, I'm peachy.
04:30You still haven't heard from him?
04:31Well, I've tried calling him and sent messages and left voice notes
04:35and I know he's definitely switched his phone back on because I can see he's got them.
04:38He's just left me on read.
04:39I wish I could do that to Jimmy sometimes.
04:42Goodness knows I could use a break from him.
04:43Oh, I think there might be some of those tiny little marshmallows you like.
04:50In the back, I'll just get them.
04:52You heard from him?
04:54No, even when I told him that I was gonna have to split his shifts between Ross and the others.
04:59Please tell me you are joking.
05:01What? The work still has to be done.
05:03I can't afford to be waiting around for Mackenzie to decide if he wants to come home or not.
05:07Oh, that's great for you, Moira.
05:08Now he's got even less reason to come rushing back.
05:11Meanwhile, I'm left with a child who's wondering where his so-called stepdad is right now.
05:15So thanks very much.
05:20I'll get this.
05:24Is that your van parked at the side of the road?
05:27Yeah, why? We're blocking you or something.
05:28No, not at all.
05:30Madge.
05:31I'm your neighbour.
05:32That way.
05:33Er, Aaron.
05:34I knew an Aaron once.
05:37He was a lovely guy.
05:38So helpful, so polite.
05:43Well, it's lovely to see the place being occupied again.
05:45I thought I'd come over and say hello.
05:48Are you buying the place?
05:50Er, no, my husband's spoken to the owner about it, but I'm just renting it for now.
05:54The owner?
05:56Are you sure about that?
05:58Yeah.
05:58Why?
06:00She died over a year ago.
06:02Granted, I didn't go to the funeral, but I know people who did.
06:06Sorry, she?
06:10Anyway, welcome to the neighbourhood.
06:12It's been lovely meeting you.
06:13Do come over for a cup of tea, won't you?
06:16You and your husband.
06:17She's still doing it.
06:29We should go somewhere else.
06:30No, just ignore her.
06:32I tried calling you last night anyway, and it just kept going to voicemail.
06:36Er, yeah, Ria's got a thing about phones on her job.
06:39You were on her job and you didn't tell me?
06:41Yeah, but last minute, just an overnight pickup in Birmingham, right?
06:46Where you needed someone you can trust them.
06:48You know, the money weren't bad.
06:49Right, well, where did you sleep?
06:50Was it at least somewhere?
06:51Everything all right?
06:53Yeah, we're fine, thanks.
06:55How are your parents?
06:56What?
06:57They're so proud of you, you know.
06:59We're all proud of our kids, but you, you've always had a good head on your shoulders.
07:03I just know that you won't do anything to disappoint them.
07:05Thanks.
07:08It's none of my business, I know, but your dad would be disappointed with your present choice of company.
07:13Yeah.
07:15Yeah, you're right.
07:17Er, it is none of your business, but seeing as you're so curious,
07:20Dad knows about Dylan and he doesn't have a problem with himself.
07:23Oh.
07:24Well, good luck to you then.
07:26You're gonna need it.
07:32Reckon she's gonna tell Chas we're together?
07:34No, Chas doesn't dictate who I hang out with, anyway, about his job.
07:40Listen, it's sweet that you're worried about me,
07:42but you know that this is the only way to get the money I need to get my own place.
07:46Yeah.
07:47Well, you wouldn't have to if it wasn't for Paddy kicking you out.
07:51It's all gonna be fine, all right?
07:52Promise.
08:01Heyo.
08:01I'm making me a bonfire.
08:05Just say the word.
08:06What do you want, Ross?
08:08Permission to hang around with Moses.
08:10And I promise to be on my best behaviour and I won't mention the paternity test.
08:14You just did that now, didn't you?
08:16I just want to spend some time with my lad.
08:18Set a good example for our impressionable boy.
08:21Fine, whatever.
08:22Was there anything else?
08:26Well, never even want to push me luck.
08:29Tell Moses I'll swim by later, yeah?
08:30Yeah.
08:32Listen, Ross.
08:34You better show up.
08:36You're his dad, so...
08:37don't disappoint him.
08:38John, where are you?
08:47He's...
08:48He's called me back when you get this.
08:51Robert said you were in.
09:16Thought I'd just stop by and say a quick hello.
09:19Well, I was just about to pop the kettle on.
09:21Join me.
09:22I don't want to take up any of your time.
09:24You probably have better things to do.
09:26Celia, if this partnership is going to work,
09:29then we need to put everything behind us.
09:31All that stuff with Joe and Kim.
09:33It's in the past now.
09:35Then tea sounds lovely.
09:37How are the guys getting along?
09:51Surprisingly well.
09:57Let me make myself useful.
09:58Where do you keep your vases?
09:59Oh, no, no, no, no.
10:00These are for Holly.
10:02Um, my daughter.
10:05She passed on a few years ago.
10:08Um, I'm sorry.
10:09I had no idea.
10:10No, no, no.
10:11It's fine.
10:12Um, she was a brilliant girl.
10:15She was so beautiful and smart.
10:19How did she, if you don't mind me asking?
10:24Um, it was drugs.
10:27I tried to help her get off the damn stuff.
10:31And she did it.
10:32She was, she was clean for a while.
10:34And then it all went wrong again and she had an overdose.
10:40And I was the one who found her.
10:43Oh, Moira.
10:44You know, um, I haven't been able to get her off my mind in the last couple of days.
10:49You know, I was finding out who Dylan really was and knowing why he broke in looking for drugs.
10:59I'm so sorry.
11:00I didn't mean to pry.
11:01There was a time I couldn't imagine life beyond losing Holly.
11:06But my other kids, Cain, they gave me purpose.
11:12And my life now is all about protecting them and giving them a legacy that they can be proud of.
11:18I am so sorry.
11:19I jeopardised that.
11:21I promise you, Moira, I will do everything I can to help you.
11:31I love you.
11:56Oh!
11:56you've been lying to me again

12:52yeah why have you not said anything till now
12:55because I couldn't
12:57if I told you
13:02I would have had to explain why I've never mentioned it before
13:06and why I don't like coming back here
13:10my mum died in this house
13:21I didn't know how coming back would affect me and I didn't want you to be worried
13:29I tried everything
13:32couldn't save her from the cancer or
13:35even ease her suffering
13:37why should I take her last breath
13:42it wasn't your fault
13:47I swear
13:48I wasn't trying to keep you in the dark
