00:30Craving sorted. My kid wants blueberries. It gets blueberries. Oh, don't tell me you've gone off them already. Do you know what, babe? I'm just not feeling very hungry. Are you alright? Yeah. I think I'm just a bit tired, you know. Well, have you checked your blood pressure today? Sarah, I'm fine. I'm really sorry.
00:59I've got to go. What? Oh, pub emergency. Chas needs me over there pronto. Well, hang on, wait. Look, I could not help opening it, but it's the appointment for our 12-week scan. Oh, babe, that's amazing. But I've really got to go. No, go, go. I just wanted to cheer you up before your day goes to hell. Good luck. With what? The pub crisis. Oh, yeah, fine. Yeah, it'll get sorted. See ya.
01:29Birthday, Carl. New phone? Yeah, birthday present. I could do with a hand here. Thanks, Carl. Grab a bag. Any bag. See? He's lost to us. Genius idea buying him a new phone. It was your idea? Well, that ear piercing wasn't. And you can talk to the head teacher when she drags us into her office over it. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. What's happening?
01:50Jimmy flooded our house, falling asleep whilst running a midnight bath. Yeah, what are these bags? Well, we're going to need to stay here for a bit while ours dries out and they fix the electrics.
02:00I'm sorry. There's no room at the inn. But it's my inn. Which is fully booked for weeks. Yay, got us. Right, but there's room for your granddaughter.
02:10April's staying in Cathy's room. Just cancel a couple of bookings. No. We're going to want all the spare cash we can get to fix the repairs. We need a plan B.
02:19Oh, hi, Nicola. You all right? What's happened?
02:26Should we... Is it... Sorry. Go ahead.
02:29No, it's just stupid small talk.
02:32There's no talk. You're not too small or stupid for these little ears.
02:37Is it better then?
02:40Between us?
02:41No. The breakfast. Is it better than the hide?
02:46Didn't know if we needed to up our menu game.
02:49Come on, then. You owe me the truth.
02:54I didn't mean...
02:55Okay, no, no.
02:59Here's the truth.
03:00The food here, it's, erm...
03:02It's worth the money.
03:05What? The hide isn't.
03:06It's outrageous.
03:08It's the part where I storm out.
03:10Only, I actually do need to go, because I've got work, so...
03:14See you later.
03:16See you later.
03:16See you later.
03:17I want to offer myself up.
03:27Sorry?
03:29As a safe space, if you ever wanted to chat.
03:32Do you...
03:33Sorry, does everyone know?
03:35Oh, no, no, just me.
03:38Nicola's been on the phone non-stop to Gabby and Laurel, so...
03:41It was hard not to get the gist of it.
03:43Your court case.
03:45Your confusion.
03:47Her cheating.
03:49Well, that's not mortifying at all, is it?
03:51Well, erm, my lips are safely sealed.
03:53I'm here, if you ever need, like, a friendly safe ear.
03:58You know, of someone who's been through, well, not similar, but similar adjacent stuff.
04:04Right.
04:05Okay, well, I've got a, er, scrap delivery.
04:11But, I mean, I could come back about lunchtime.
04:15Me and my friendly ears will still be here.
04:19Hello.
04:20See you.
04:23Oh, she lives.
04:31I've left you a million messages.
04:33When do you get here?
04:36Ah.
04:37Well, this can't be good.
04:39You helping out.
04:40You usually leave all the menial tasks to your minions.
04:43Well, there's been an emergency.
04:44What? Where?
04:45Here.
04:46Obviously there hasn't, but that's what I told Sarah in case she asks, okay?
04:50I said you needed help over here, so...
04:52Right, so I'm your excuse to avoid her.
04:56I take it that your confession didn't go down too well?
04:59Didn't go down at all, Kay.
05:00I didn't get a chance.
05:04It just wasn't the right moment to tell them.
05:06And there never will be, Charity.
05:08We've been through this.
05:10Burying your head won't make it go away.
05:12No.
05:14But a termination will.
05:17I'm going to end the pregnancy, and I've got an appointment in a few hours.
05:20Please, will you come with me?
05:30She's been a dream.
05:32She's been helping turn the rooms.
05:35Do you think we're monsters for letting her leave?
05:37I think it's probably one of the hardest things you've ever had to do.
05:41Thanks again for taking her in.
05:43Makes it so much easier knowing she's with you.
05:44It's bonus quality time with my favourite granddaughter.
05:48Win-win.
05:49Hi.
05:50Jim Judy Dent, she's sparkling.
05:53Morning, love.
05:54Is it Leo?
05:56Is it Leo what?
05:57What?
05:58Is he okay if something else happens?
05:59Is that why you're here?
06:01No, no, no.
06:01I came to see how you are.
06:03Oh.
06:04Settling in okay?
06:06Leo's good.
06:07He's recovering well.
06:08He misses you.
06:09We all do.
06:10Come and visit him, if you like.
06:12I don't think me coming to Gleason anytime soon is a good idea.
06:16I'm...
06:16I'm gonna go and get sighted on Jane MacDonald.
06:19Well, don't let him overwork you.
06:26It's only been a day.
06:28Already feels like everything's changed.
06:30And it'll change back again.
06:32But for now, she's safe.
06:34She's close.
06:36And I've scored myself some exceptional free labour.
06:38Hmm.
06:41Chas, this is such a mess.
06:46And if there's no baby, then we can all just go back to living our lives.
06:50Oh yeah, because it's that easy, isn't it?
06:51Especially for Sarah.
06:53Did I say this was easy?
06:54Any of it?
06:55Chas, I have lost control, okay?
06:58And I'm hurtling towards the cliff edge right now.
07:00And no matter which way I turn, I'm gonna crash anyway.
07:02Well, you could try pumping your brakes and face whatever you're speeding from.
07:05No, I can't.
07:06You are turning an already awful lie into a bigger one.
07:12Well, thanks for having my back.
07:13I do.
07:15Which is why I'm giving you the blunt truth.
07:17Charity, you are spiralling.
07:19Just, just take a minute and think.
07:21I don't have a minute, Chas.
07:23So this is happening and...
07:27Do you know what?
07:27I was wrong coming here thinking you'd support me through this.
07:30Well, I'm not gonna blindly cheer you on over a snap decision about something so huge.
07:36You can forget coming with me.
07:38I don't want you anywhere near me.
07:39You're off the hook.
07:40Oh, charity!
07:41Charity!
07:45Clean bill of health.
07:47You've bred some quality lunch this year, Moira.
07:49Oh, well, that is music to my ears.
07:53Hey, um, you didn't need to come here today.
07:57And I didn't mean to keep you from Leo.
07:59My mum is spoiling him rotten.
08:00Anyway, I would only upset him with all my fussing, so...
08:04How did he even get hold of the pills?
08:06I mean, were they in the playground or the bus or...
08:09Sorry, just tell me to keep my nose out of your business.
08:14No, no, no, it's not that, Moira.
08:15I just don't want to offload on you, not about this.
08:17You went through much worse with Holly.
08:19No, no, you're my mate.
08:20You can tell me.
08:24Oh, uh, bad time.
08:26Oh, sorry, Suey.
08:27No, it's fine.
08:28It's fine.
08:28It's not like it's a secret, is it?
08:31Um, my stepdaughter brought the pills home.
08:36They were April's.
08:37Ecstasy.
08:39I heard.
08:41Rather, I overheard.
08:43Bob and Marlon were in the cafe yesterday.
08:46They were a bit worked up about it all.
08:49Well, then you probably also heard that my son found the pills and thought they were sweet.
08:53Is he all right?
08:55It was terrifying.
08:56I bet.
08:57Yeah.
08:58He's shaken up, but, you know, safely back at home now.
09:01Unlike my daughter, stepdaughter.
09:03She's, um...
09:04She's moved out for a bit.
09:08That must be tough for all of you.
09:10So, where's she gone?
09:11Oh, just a bobs.
09:12She offered to go, spur of the moment.
09:14I don't think she thought we'd say yes, but I did.
09:17I was angry.
09:19Scared about Ivy and Leo being near April.
09:21I don't trust her after something like this, and I needed space.
09:25Oh, did I go too far?
09:27Oh, I love her to bits, but I don't recognise her since she came back home.
09:34She's not the same since living on the streets, and you must have been unbearable, and then losing the baby.
09:40Oh, God.
09:41God.
09:42She's going to think that we've abandoned her, isn't she?
09:45Should I have told her to stay?
09:46Hon, you are not the first parent to wrestle with this.
09:50It's not easy for any of us.
09:56There we go.
09:57Sorry.
09:59So, you stood up in court.
10:00That must have been awful.
10:02I mean, doing it in front of Gabby, that was the most terrifying bit.
10:05You made the world a bit safer.
10:07But I mainly testified, stopping from targeting me.
10:11Yeah, and risked your marriage in the process of it.
10:14How was that, by the way?
10:16Because earlier on, I'm not going to lie, it was painful to watch, but...
10:20You know, you seemed on the same page-ish.
10:23We've both made mistakes.
10:25And we both want it to work, so...
10:26We'll do the work.
10:29And, um, what about those feelings you tried to explore with Mike before he turned to a wrecking ball?
10:34What happened to them?
10:35I...
10:36Well, I mean, you know, they're still there.
10:41And I still have questions.
10:50My lad was a bit of a wild card in his day.
11:17Every time he messed up, which was a lot, I would beg him to come home.
11:23That's exactly what I want to do.
11:24Now I've slept on it, every part of me is screaming to bring her back home.
11:28Yeah, I mean, if it were Holly, I'd be dragging her back home just so I could keep an eye on her.
11:34You both strike me as brilliant mums, truly.
11:38But for my lad, it just made things worse.
11:42I realised far too late.
11:44I was just enabling him.
11:47It's so tricky to get the balance right.
11:49And for you, it's not just April you have to worry about.
11:53It's your younger ones too.
11:55Yeah.
11:55Leo could have died.
11:56April wouldn't be so careless again, though, would she?
12:00I don't know.
12:02I just want her close, so I can keep her safe.
12:05Yes, you should.
12:06But for now, she is safe.
12:09She's down the road.
12:11She's with family.
12:13I'm not sure forcing things would help anyone.
12:18Maybe you just need to give her some space for now.
12:21For her sake, as much as yours.
12:23Oh, you're home.
12:29Crisis averted.
12:30What?
12:31At the pub.
12:33Oh, yeah.
12:33All sorted.
12:35What have you got there?
12:37Oh, just a little memory box.
12:40For the baby.
12:41Oh, yeah.
12:42No, I know that.
12:43I'm thinking nothing to put in it yet.
12:45Oh, strongly disagree.
12:48We've got the baby scan.
12:50Oh, of course.
12:51And the 12-week appointment scan for next month.
12:56And what's that left in there?
12:59Just this little letter that me and Jacob wrote for the baby.
13:03Saying how we can't wait to meet them and that our hearts couldn't be fuller.
13:06Except they will be once you finally arrive.
13:10Oh, you think it's enough, don't you?
13:12But do you know what?
13:12I don't care.
13:13Because my child will know that they are loved
13:15and they'll never doubt that they're the centre of our universe.
13:18Look, why don't you try writing your own?
13:20And I won't be looking over your shoulder either
13:23because I'm due back at the garage.
13:24You know, just give it a go, see what comes out.
13:26You might surprise yourself.
13:28See you later.
13:29Cappy's my world.
13:41I love her a bit and I fancy her.
13:44I loved Liv to bits and I fancied her.
13:48You do know you can fancy other people when you're in a relationship.
13:52Can you?
13:52I don't make the rules, but for me, it's what you do with it that matters.
13:57Yeah, but I can't do anything with it.
13:58I don't want to.
14:00I think.
14:02I suppose if I don't try, I won't know, will I?
14:07And does it matter, you know, if you're with your forever person?
14:10I think only you can answer that.
14:15Gabby said that if I'd have told her before we got married that she'd have given me room to explore things.
14:22And now?
14:23I'm non-starter.
14:26Is that what you want?
14:27I want Gabby.
14:29I can't risk the marriage again.
14:31I won't do it.
14:32So, have you got any insights or answers?
14:38No answers.
14:40I'm not sure if this is an insight, but, you know, right now, to you, I feel like it's all about Gabby.
14:45Which it is.
14:46Yeah, and that's great that you know that.
14:48That's your one certainty, but at some point that might change and you need to be honest with yourself about that.
14:56Vinny, these feelings are meant to be fun, positive, exciting for you.
15:00I'm sorry that hasn't been your experience and, you know, you got shafted by a guy who used him against you.
15:08I should take that.
15:13Come here.
15:14I'm here for you.
15:16See you.
15:21Oh.
15:25Angel's shifting Dotty's things in with you so she and I can both sit in that room.
15:31Er, why are you making up the sofa?
15:32Well, it's that other floor frame.
15:34Oi, birthday boy, get off your phone and go and help your brother unpack in Arthur's room.
15:39He's been texting Clemmie.
15:41Oh, young love.
15:42His first girlfriend.
15:44Should we invite her over for tea?
15:45No, no, please, no.
15:48Look, there's a lot of people in a little house and I don't know how I'm going to make it work for all of you.
15:54All?
15:55You mean Dad?
15:56Oh, it's Rodney as well, isn't there?
15:58No, no, no, no.
15:58He's gone to stay with a mate in Great Yarmouth.
16:01See, not so many after all.
16:03Are you going to be all right on this sofa?
16:05It's not very comfy, Jimmy.
16:06He'll take what he's given and be grateful since he's the one who made us all homeless.
16:10I did not!
16:11Oh, well, at least I won't have to listen to him pretending to be a tractor in my ear for a few weeks.
16:17Weeks?
16:18Yeah, listen, thanks so much for putting us up.
16:20You're a lifesaver.
16:21Gaby, wait.
16:26I'm just on my break.
16:27I'll get something for our tea.
16:29Gaby, please.
16:29Just stop.
16:30Stop, please.
16:32Right?
16:33It was only a chat with Lewis.
16:34That's it.
16:35Nothing more.
16:35I didn't say there was.
16:37Well, you thought it.
16:38That's why you stormed out.
16:40Sorry.
16:41Look, I swear.
16:42It was a chat and a hug.
16:44You can trust me.
16:46Yeah, and I do trust you.
16:47Really, I do.
16:48It's just, I just got in my head for a minute.
16:52I know all about that.
16:54But I don't want you thinking the worst every time I'm talking to a guy.
16:57Yeah, neither do I.
16:59I mean, who am I to say anything anyway?
17:00I'm the one that cheated.
17:02It just took me by surprise, that's all.
17:05Right, well, there's going to be knocks along the way, ain't there?
17:07But we're still good if we keep talking, right?
17:11Right.
17:18Hey, you?
17:22You okay?
17:25Oh, you love, come here.
17:31I didn't go.
17:34Yeah, barely got ten yards down the road before turning back.
17:40Can't do it, Chas.
17:42And you don't have to.
17:43I'm just so glad you've taken a step back, giving yourself a chance to think.
17:50You know, Sarah's life is so full of hope and joy and love for this baby.
17:59This is the only opportunity she's going to get, to have a kid like this.
18:03And let's face it, her life's going to be shorter than most,
18:06and she's already been through so much pain, and it's just so unfair.
18:10I know she has.
18:14And I know it's not going to be easy.
18:18But this still means that you're going to have to face the truth.
18:22I can come with you, you know, when you tell them.
18:27Tell them what?
18:30Everything.
18:31I presume you're going back to the original plan and coming clean.
18:34No, Chas.
18:36No way, I can't do that.
18:38Careful, Cinderella.
18:40You've got me out of a job.
18:44He's been hovering there like that since I came out.
18:47He's probably hoping that you'll call him over for a chat.
18:52Right, you're off the clock.
18:54So, are you free to go and join them?
18:55You feel like it?
18:56Nice little palace you've got yourself here.
19:10Er, it's not mine.
19:11It's my granddad's.
19:12Ah.
19:13His casa, su casa.
19:16I owe you an apology.
19:17I should never have laid a hand on you, and I'm sorry.
19:23Truly.
19:25You should be very proud of yourself.
19:27Moving out, standing on your own two feet.
19:30Especially given...
19:32Well, I, er...
19:35I had the chance to get to know your step-mom today.
19:39What, Rana?
19:40You smart to her?
19:41A lot.
19:42What did she say?
19:45She's just worried about you.
19:47Really?
19:48She said that?
19:49Yes.
19:52What else did she say?
19:56That you're different.
19:59Okay, and?
20:00And troubled.
20:02She doesn't know you.
20:05Ever since you came home, back from the streets...
20:07You're a stranger to her.
20:12Don't take it to heart, April.
20:14She'll come around.
20:16In time.
20:18Not like I can blame her, is it?
20:20Right.
20:34Okay, so your answer is just to keep lying.
20:39Yeah.
20:41Yeah, so you just sit there in your little web of lies...
20:43...until it all comes crumbling down, like it always does.
20:46Why would it?
20:47You and me are the only ones who know the whole truth.
20:51Are you truly okay with all this?
20:53No.
20:54Chas.
20:55Not even close.
20:57If I had another answer...
21:00You do!
21:00No, I don't, Chas.
21:02Telling the truth is not the answer.
21:05Telling the truth loses me Mac.
21:07It loses me Sarah, for good.
21:08Do you honestly believe they're better off knowing this?
21:12Look at Mac.
21:13He's been through so much already.
21:15He's putting on a brave face.
21:17He can't handle the stress.
21:18And then there's Sarah.
21:19This is her only chance to have her own baby.
21:22It's not hers.
21:24But she doesn't need to ever know that.
21:26Yeah, but Ross will, won't he?
21:27You said yourself he won't rest until he sees the results.
21:30You can't control him.
21:32No, I know.
21:34So how do you think you're going to keep this from Mac and Sarah?
21:36Look, I know I don't have all the answers right now, okay?
21:43But there has to be a solution.
21:44I have to find a way.
21:55Okay.
