00:00Hi.
00:23Just in time, where'd you a brew?
00:25Oh, thank you.
00:26Looks like you need it.
00:27So do you.
00:28We've been up since the crack of dawn.
00:29Oh, yeah, mine's jet laggy.
00:30You've been out grafting.
00:32Well, I have no choice with Mackenzie and Robert gone.
00:35Everything's chaos.
00:37Er, any news on Aaron?
00:39Still no change.
00:40I told Chas we'd pop up there and I'd give her a break.
00:42Aye.
00:44Still nothing from Mackenzie?
00:47A bang out of order.
00:49Yeah, and now his phone's switched off.
00:51I mean, he wouldn't just ignore it though, would he?
00:53Aaron's his best mate.
00:55Yeah.
00:56Vic?
00:57What are you doing here?
00:59If it's about your brother's attempted murder charge, we already know.
01:02That's not why I'm here.
01:04But, yeah, he deserves everything he's got.
01:06Yeah, well, if Aaron dies, he'll be going down for murder.
01:08How could you trust him, Vic?
01:10How could I trust him?
01:12I should never have got into business with that monster.
01:15But Robert's gone now.
01:16You're just dealing with me.
01:18Anyway, I couldn't sleep so I started working on some business ideas.
01:21You know, trying to focus on something normal.
01:23So I was working out some costumes on a food truck.
01:26It wouldn't be like Diddy Dino.
01:27It would be more upmarket, sell artisan stuff.
01:30Are you for real?
01:31Pitching up here like nothing's happened?
01:33Like it's business as usual?
01:35Aaron's fighting for his life because of Robert.
01:37Right, Cain.
01:38No, no, I'm not having it and neither should you.
01:39But I'm not responsible for his actions.
01:42So hate him all you want, but don't punish me.
01:45Look, I'm sorry, Vic.
01:48I know this is my farm, but Cain's right.
01:51This is about family and ours.
01:54We can't work together anymore.
01:56You can't just cut me out.
01:58I invested everything I've got into Butler's.
02:00And I'll return it as soon as I sort out all the details.
02:03I'll give back whatever's yours.
02:05So that's it?
02:07It's just over?
02:08I'm sorry, Vic.
02:09This is all Robert's doing.
02:11His actions have left us no choice.
02:22Thank you for yesterday.
02:23You know, letting me offload about Mike.
02:25Yeah, I'm glad you told me.
02:27Keeping a secret all this time.
02:28No wonder you've been acting weird.
02:30Yeah, well it's done now, innit?
02:32I've paid him what he wanted so he can just let us get married in peace.
02:36Is it over?
02:38As long as he's got those recordings on his phone, he's still got power over you.
02:42I'm not going to the place.
02:43I told you that already.
02:44It's your call, bro.
02:45I can't force you.
02:46I just know I don't trust the guy.
02:47Just drop it.
02:48Okay?
02:49Tomorrow I won't need to be perfect.
02:50I can't let cap you down.
02:51Ah!
02:52And how's her blushing bride to be?
02:53Well, Kim and Mum are still ignoring me.
02:54My nails are far too loud.
02:55But apart from that, yeah, great.
02:56Is your niece still a no-show?
02:57Yeah.
02:58Her own daughter's getting married tomorrow and she can't even get in touch.
02:59Should have had decency to call you at least.
03:00Decency?
03:01She hasn't got a shred of this stuff.
03:02You're better off without her love.
03:03We all are.
03:04Anyway, I'm off to Laurel's to rejig the, er, seating plan.
03:18Hope you've given him a list of his best man duties.
03:19Already on it.
03:19Got me suit sorted.
03:20Same supplier has Vinny so, you know, machy-mach.
03:22Right.
03:23Well, I want the last sign off, okay?
03:25Try it on at ours and Vinny will send me a photo.
03:27Yes, boss.
03:29And I've been working on my speech.
03:30I've been working on my speech.
03:31Yes boss, and I've been working on my speech and all. Trying to keep it PG, obviously.
03:36Well, that can't be difficult.
03:38Binny's an angel, aren't you sweetheart?
03:46She can't know, ever.
03:47Promise me, can't it?
03:48Yeah, of course I won't tell her.
03:50And besides, I'm not the one you've got to worry about.
03:52Right, we'll call me later, yeah?
03:55Meet at mine when you're sick.
04:01Running out of time. Running out of time.
04:12To make you not easy.
04:16I always put my head around.
04:19I'm looking for it.
04:21But, but, I've been running out of space.
04:24To make you not easy.
04:28Look, I'm really sorry to bother you. I just wondered if Mac had been in touch about Aaron.
04:45With me? No, why would he?
04:46Because he's not getting back to any of us lot.
04:48Sarah and Moira have tried texting him to tell him about Aaron.
04:51So he's either blocked him or he's switched his phone off.
04:53Right, well, I'm sorry he's blanking you.
04:55But I've got bigger things to think about right now.
04:57Like my whole family imploding.
04:59Robert's in prison, John's in hospital, Harry's asking where they both are.
05:04What am I supposed to tell him?
05:05That one of his uncles tried to murder the other.
05:08And I hate Robert for what he's done to Aaron as much as the rest of you.
05:12But now I'm being punished just for being his sister.
05:16Punished?
05:18Cain and Moira have just kicked me out of the business.
05:20You are kidding.
05:22Robert has destroyed this family.
05:24So all that stuff about us being together and building a future...
05:28It was bad enough after Lee.
05:30But now he's torn us apart again.
05:32How come Mum let me down like this?
05:38She should be all over her daughter's wedding, not ghosting me.
05:41I know, it's appalling behaviour.
05:43Not even calling to explain her reasons.
05:45Like what?
05:46Oh, I'm sorry I can't make it, Gabs.
05:48I'm too self-obsessed.
05:49No, it's standard.
05:50And I messaged Kim while she's been in Dubai.
05:52She's still ignoring me.
05:53Well, she's probably just busy, isn't she?
05:56Walking around in power suits making cutthroat decisions.
05:59You're swindling more of his land.
06:02She's not going to be happy that I've tipped her off.
06:04Just hope she's calmed down by now.
06:05Yeah, but that was weeks ago and you did the right thing.
06:08She can't bear a grudge forever.
06:10So how come she's still giving me this island treatment?
06:12Just stuff her.
06:14And your mum.
06:15Just make sure you get someone decent to walk you down the aisle.
06:17Yeah.
06:18Thanks, Sam.
06:21Big, big.
06:23Tom's up.
06:24I've allowed to wait here.
06:25Can I have my mum in it, please?
06:27Back to your cell and try again later.
06:41I've allowed to wait here.
07:11Zane?
07:17Mike?
07:18Yeah, that's right.
07:22Thanks for coming.
07:24I wasn't sure you'd turn up.
07:26I wasn't sure myself, if I'm honest.
07:28I haven't done this before, you know.
07:31Meeting someone I've only chatted to online.
07:35What you wrote on the form shook a cord.
07:39Reminded me of my own struggles.
07:41Going out with a woman.
07:44Or thinking you might be gay.
07:47I remember how lonely it was.
07:49Couldn't just sit back and let somebody else go through that.
07:52I wanted to help.
07:53I...
07:55I can trust you, right?
07:59Of course.
08:01I know how sensitive this is.
08:05But you're not on your own now.
08:07Did you...
08:12Want to chat more in my car?
08:16Erm...
08:17Yeah.
08:18Hey.
08:27Is it now a good time?
08:30Er...
08:30Yeah.
08:31Of course.
08:32Erm...
08:33Have a seat.
08:34Thanks.
08:34Any...
08:35Update on Aaron?
08:38Still no news?
08:40No.
08:40The doctors are checking on him now, so...
08:42We thought we'd pop in and see how you were getting on.
08:45Well...
08:46I'd sooner be...
08:48Sat with my husband, but...
08:50Every...
08:51Every time I try and see him, the nurses...
08:54Drag me back in here and tell me to rest.
08:56Are you recovering too?
08:57Physically, yeah.
09:00But...
09:00Mentally, I'm still shot.
09:04You know, Aaron is the one fighting for his life...
09:06...but it should be me in a coma, not him.
09:08I am the one responsible.
09:10That's not true, Joe.
09:12You weren't there, Moira.
09:14When Robert charged at me, I froze...
09:16...and Aaron got in the way to protect me.
09:19You're not to blame for this.
09:21Aaron just needs you to be strong for him.
09:23That's what the rest of us are doing.
09:26Apart from Mackenzie.
09:27Everyone's tried to get a hold of him about Aaron, but...
09:31...we've heard nothing back yet.
09:33Unless you know something.
09:35Me?
09:36Well, it's just...
09:38...one minute Mackenzie was off to London...
09:40...and then he left Charity a message saying that he was never come back here again.
09:44It's...
09:44Maybe he spoke to Aaron about it, and then he said something to you?
09:48Aaron didn't mention anything.
09:50Mac's not been in touch either.
09:52Well, I...
09:53I knew it was a long shot, but...
09:55I'm just worried that...
09:57...I had to ask.
09:58Hmm.
09:59Of course.
10:05How's the table plan coming along, love?
10:07Well, I've had to rejig it a bit, but my side's still looking empty.
10:11Well, not for long.
10:13Hi.
10:16Kim!
10:16You're back.
10:18Observant as ever.
10:20Well, I've been trying to contact you about the wedding tomorrow.
10:22Of course.
10:23Your official inauguration into the Dingle clan.
10:26No, we presume that you got the invite, yeah?
10:28I did.
10:30Black coffee, please.
10:32Well, um...
10:33You haven't replied.
10:34I'm just getting a bit worried.
10:35There's a reason for that.
10:36I'm not coming.
10:37I'm not coming.
10:37What means you can't afford them?
11:01Well, I'm getting married soon, and I love her and everything.
11:09I'm just confused.
11:14You told anyone else?
11:16Are you kidding?
11:17You'd ruin my fiancé's life.
11:20I can't tell anyone.
11:21I can't keep pretending, either.
11:25We're here now, so that's progress.
11:29Maybe we could work out together?
11:33You reckon?
11:35Well, it'll take more than one conversation, but...
11:38I'm happy to keep talking.
11:40On the forum?
11:44Face-to-face is better.
11:46As long as it's private.
11:47You can come to mine, if you like.
11:52I've got my own flat.
11:55Okay.
11:56As long as you're happy with that.
12:01I don't really, um...
12:04So I'll contact details?
12:06Yeah, I'll tap mine in for you.
12:08Okay.
12:15Oi!
12:17Oi!
12:23Give me the phone.
12:24Do one.
12:26What is this?
12:27Some kind of cell?
12:28Well, you're messing with me, mate.
12:30What, mate?
12:31The one that you've been blackmailing.
12:32You what?
12:33You shatting rubbish.
12:35You put ten grand in your account.
12:36I know we did.
12:38Well, Vinny...
12:40You're here for that little perv, are you?
12:42Yeah.
12:43Get any of those recordings you made, you muppet.
12:44So that's why you're after my phone, is it?
12:48Idiot.
12:48You think I ain't backed him up?
12:52He's getting married tomorrow.
12:53Leave him in peace.
12:54Well, I would have, if you hadn't tried this.
12:59You just made his life a living hell.
13:01Come on, Kim.
13:11You're not seriously going to miss my wedding day, are you?
13:13Why would I celebrate with someone who betrayed me?
13:17Joe told me everything, Gabby.
13:19Like squealing to Moira.
13:22Ruining our business arrangement.
13:24You were trying to rip her off.
13:26This is business.
13:28I was trying to secure the future for my family.
13:31You and Thomas included.
13:33She still did what she thought was right there.
13:36Throwing me under the bus?
13:38What, to prove your worth is a dingle?
13:40No, it wasn't like that.
13:42You're my family too, Kim.
13:44Of course you are.
13:45She's just stuck in the middle.
13:47You've picked your side.
13:49So good luck to you.
13:50You and I are done.
13:54Oh, no, Gabby.
13:55Gabby, come back.
13:57She's getting married tomorrow.
13:59It's meant to be the happiest day of her life.
14:01And you are ruining it.
14:03She's the one who ruined it.
14:05Running her mouth off to Moira.
14:06Well, at least she showed some honour.
14:07I mean, what you and Jo did was disgraceful, Kim.
14:11I'm not listening to this.
14:13Oh, get over yourself.
14:14You're missing Gabby's wedding because of some stupid grudge.
14:17You're just cutting your nose off to spite your face, that's all.
14:19Oh, it's disgraceful.
14:21Yes!
14:21Laurel?
14:25Are you hurt?
14:26Can I help you?
14:28Oh, I've done something to me ankle.
14:30I'm sorry for getting angry.
14:35I should be apologising for banging on about Mac.
14:39I'm trying to hold it together, but Kane and Moira attacking me over Robert just...
14:44tipped me over the edge.
14:45Listen, you are not to blame for what he did.
14:49They're upset, that's all.
14:51I'm sorry you got it in the neck.
14:53I was still wrong to trust him, though.
14:55I thought he'd learnt something after Lee, but he's come back and done it again, but worse.
15:00I mean, killing him for...
15:04hurting his sister is one thing, but John and Aaron, why?
15:08Out of jealousy?
15:09Because he's not right in the head, that's why.
15:12And I told him he needed help.
15:13I gave him chance after chance.
15:15But he was just too hellbent on wrecking things.
15:20How am I going to explain it to Harry?
15:22He's going to be home from school soon.
15:24Listen, if you need me to stay while you do it, I'll wait.
15:29I appreciate the offer, but I need to do this on my own.
15:38Hello?
15:39Vic, it's me.
15:42I can't believe it's Robert again.
15:44We'll just switch your phone off if he's bothering you.
15:46I'd block him if I could.
15:47Maybe then he'd get the message.
15:48Hang on, hang on, hang on.
16:03Hello, butlers.
16:05Hi, is that you?
16:06Please, please, I'm begging you, don't my mum.
16:08Robert?
16:09I know I shouldn't be calling you, but I'm desperate.
16:13I need to speak to Vic.
16:14Then call her, mate, not us.
16:16No, no, I can have a trade.
16:17She won't pick up.
16:18She thinks I've hurt Aaron.
16:20But she needs to hear the truth.
16:21Please, it might.
16:23I'm begging you.
16:25You've got to help me.
16:29Oh.
16:30Well, I really hope he's not serious.
16:32You know, if he hadn't been tearing chunks out of me,
16:34he might have been more careful.
16:35Can you blame me?
16:36This wedding means everything to Gabby.
16:38She just wants a family there.
16:41The Dingles.
16:42They're the one she chose.
16:43We're her family, too.
16:46And Bernice.
16:48Not that we've heard from her.
16:50What?
16:51Her own mother?
16:52Not a word.
16:55Gabby loves you.
16:57And it would mean the world if you were at the wedding.
17:01Right, well, if you've done tugging at my heartstrings,
17:04how about trying to stand up?
17:07Okay.
17:08Ah!
17:09Oh!
17:10Oh, it really hurts.
17:12Great.
17:13So now I'm driving you to A&E.
17:15Really?
17:16You don't mind?
17:17Well, of course I mind.
17:19Just spare me the emotional blackmail, all right?
17:22Okay.
17:25Come on, then.
17:26Thanks, Kim.
17:28Pleasure.
17:30Don't wait for me.
17:31I'm ready.
17:32You're taking a big risk, aren't you?
17:34I thought you would have been banned from seeing me.
17:36By who?
17:38Cain and your mum.
17:38They kicked me out of the business earlier.
17:41Apparently we're done now, thanks to Robert.
17:43How's any of this your fault?
17:45Look, I'll talk to them, Vic.
17:46I'll tell them they're being unfair.
17:4920 of them.
17:50No, I can't stop, Vic.
17:51Erm, I'm here to pass on a message.
17:53Robert called.
17:54He couldn't get hold of you, so he rang the farm instead.
17:56He wants you to go in and visit him.
17:59I hope you told him where to shove it.
18:01Well?
18:01I've been where he is now.
18:04I'm not saying he doesn't deserve it.
18:05I just know what it feels like to be stuck in there, leading to family.
18:08But Robert doesn't care about family.
18:10Tried to kill his own brother.
18:12But did he, though?
18:13I mean, I thought he had, but hearing how desperate he sounded, I'm not so sure now.
18:18Well, then he's playing you, Matty.
18:20And I can't believe you're falling for it.
18:22What if he's telling the truth, though, Vic?
18:24I know it sounds mad, but if you don't hear what he's got to say to you, how will you ever really know?
18:29Half an hour.
18:31That's all he's asking.
18:32After that, you can walk away for good.
18:43Well, there you are.
18:44I'm ready to call you.
18:45Sorry, but I got delayed.
18:47I was, er, picking up my suit.
18:48Well, I, er, I got you something to say thank you for being my best man.
18:53Cufflinks!
18:54The main...
18:55Oh, and I got Gabby.
18:57This.
18:58Oh, sweet.
18:59She'll love it.
19:00But it's a surprise, I don't say anything, yeah?
19:02Oh, er, Noah, them shots when you get a minute, yeah?
19:04Yeah, on it.
19:06Vinny, this is a disaster.
19:08Everything's going wrong.
19:09Well, what's happened?
19:09Mum's bust her ankles.
19:11She just called us from A&E.
19:12Kim had to drive her there.
19:13They're probably killing each other.
19:15They're putting a boot on it.
19:16Which is going to ruin all the photos.
19:18Oh, did she break it?
19:19It tripped over, chasing after Kim.
19:20Trying to get her to come to the wedding.
19:22Did it work?
19:22No, of course not.
19:24She's disowned me.
19:25So has Mum.
19:26Like the abandoned bride.
19:27Yeah, well, I won't abandon you.
19:29And I don't care who turns up or who turns up in a cast or a boot or whatever.
19:33As long as we're together, that's all that matters.
19:34Shorts for the happy couple.
19:38Ha!
19:38Ha!
19:39Hey!
19:40Come on, grab them.
19:42I'll swap.
19:43Can I get another one for me?
19:44Oh, gosh.
19:45Sorry, I need to go to the toilet.
19:50What?
19:51You're missing out.
19:52You ready?
19:57Well, cheers.
19:58Cheers.
19:59Cheers.
20:01Oh!
20:02Second one.
20:03Yeah.
20:04Oh!
20:04What are you doing here?
20:14Ask your mate.
20:16He's the one you sent through your dirty work.
20:18What, Cammy?
20:19Cammy?
20:20Oh!
20:22So this is your secret little crush, is it?
20:25Told me his name was Zane.
20:26We're trying to help you.
20:28Heh.
20:28Set me up.
20:29Tried to rub me phone.
20:31It were my idea, not his.
20:33I wanted to delete the recordings, man.
20:34Stop him from blackmailing you.
20:35Well, that went well, didn't it?
20:36Just leave him alone, man.
20:38He doesn't deserve this.
20:39He's a good lad.
20:40Please.
20:41Gary's inside.
20:42She might see you.
20:43Yeah.
20:44Bet she'd love to hear the truth about her gay husband to me.
20:46You can't, okay?
20:48I am begging you.
20:49Please.
20:50Don't ruin the wedding.
20:51Oh, Vinnie.
20:53I wouldn't ruin the wedding.
20:56Where's the fun and that?
20:58I'll help you at the reception.
21:00When it's all too late.
21:03Another ten grand by lunchtime tomorrow.
21:05When Gabby finds out everything.
