00:20Alright?
00:22You wet the bed?
00:24It's very funny, in case you forgot, Cat.
00:26I'm in a pub, and I want to make this place look spectacular for the party.
00:30And also, I've got a load of decorations I need to hang.
00:33I would help you, but...
00:34Yeah, but, um...
00:35Hold on, what's that?
00:36Ooh, is that a...
00:37I'm getting a hint of vodka with a little hint of regret.
00:42I don't regret anything.
00:45Cat, you ain't fooling anybody, darling.
00:47I don't...
00:48I know you don't want Zoe to go, right?
00:50I don't recognise my own daughter, alright?
00:53How could she use Sharon's dead son to...
00:56To con money out of her?
00:58I'm sorry I did that.
01:01But someone tried to scare me last night.
01:03You smashed that photo yourself in the fake blood.
01:05That was a real touch.
01:07Why would I do that?
01:08To manipulate me.
01:10Cos I told you to leave.
01:11Well, it ain't gonna wash.
01:12Sling your hook.
01:14Don't worry, Kathleen.
01:15I'll be gone by the end of the day.
01:16Good!
01:17Ladies, can we just please dial it down?
01:19I mean, the sun's not even up yet.
01:21Now, listen, if we can just sit...
01:24Okay.
01:25Alright, it's only a power cut.
01:27Check it out, then.
01:29Yeah, alright.
01:30I will.
01:31It'll be a big deal.
01:41Oh, no!
01:43Charlie should be off the bottle by now, but Stacy wants Lily to make her own decision,
01:50so how can I be a good man?
01:52Charlie's gonna end up with sticky-out tea.
01:54These windows are filthy.
01:56See, I wasn't a very good mum to Sean and Stacy when they were toddlers, so...
02:01Yeah, you see, this is my chance to step up.
02:04Nan, the milk's exploding in the microwave and I'm late for school!
02:08Right, Leon, I'll sort it.
02:10Nan, please, take it easy.
02:12Alright, what else do you need?
02:14Just Stacy back home where she belongs, but that's not gonna happen.
02:17I'll help you all.
02:21I hate Sally.
02:23Hey, thanks for this one.
02:25An omelette will settle your nerves, Mum.
02:29I'm not nervous.
02:30Why would I be nervous?
02:31This meeting was my idea.
02:37Um, Priya's offered to help us go over the adoption interview.
02:42Priya.
02:48Hello.
02:49Hi.
02:50We're from Walford Social Services.
02:52My name is Felicia...
02:55Forcatcher.
02:56Now you can just call me Fleek.
02:58Give me strength.
03:00And I am her trusted assistant.
03:04Flora.
03:06Before we grant you custody of a child,
03:09I see here that you have had four of your own children,
03:14one grandchild and two step-grandchildren.
03:18Would you consider that you've made a success of motherhood?
03:23What's that supposed to mean?
03:24Well, it means that out of all of those children...
03:29Which one's your favourite?
03:30Here you go, Mum.
03:31Oh, go on.
03:32Put Vin out of misery and just tell him it's him.
03:34You can lie.
03:35Couldn't possibly choose between any of my children.
03:38Kira.
03:39I'm sorry, are we really doing this?
03:40Do you know what?
03:41This is ridiculous.
03:42This isn't a joke.
03:48Right?
03:58I'm sorry, love.
03:59I stupidly thought it might help.
04:00What it has helped with is realising that this process is doomed.
04:06You know...
04:09It's a reasonable human response to feel nervous when something matters to you so much, so...
04:14I know you... reasonable.
04:20That's how I know this is far from doomed.
04:23Just don't want to let you down.
04:27You won't.
04:28You know, it's been spraying water all night and it's knocked the lecky out.
04:35Ross, I thought you were supposed to fix it, mate.
04:36Yeah, I said today, didn't I?
04:39But, er...
04:40Have a look at that.
04:41It's gonna need more than a patch job, mate.
04:42Oh, it's...
04:44It's soaked all the Halloween costumes and the decorations and how many parties ruined.
04:48Well, I'm sorry for you, Ross.
04:49Yeah, all right.
04:50But, you know, on the other hand, you've never really avoided the old place burning down.
04:54All right.
04:55This is because of the poxy cat, innit?
04:56Well, how much is this gonna cost me?
04:57Let me have a plop of Butcher's, but I need to clear a bit of space.
05:00Yeah, yeah, yeah.
05:01It's just that when we moved in, we dumped everything, so I just need to sort through it all.
05:05Hang on. What's that?
05:07Slater's Halloween?
05:081888.
05:10I bet that's a laugh.
05:12Look at that.
05:15Wow.
05:16I wonder what their barnage looked like back then.
05:18That was funny.
05:21I wanna get hold of a video player.
05:24Oh, Elaine, I feel I have a sisterly duty to warn you after my baby brother.
05:36What?
05:37Well, there's tarts.
05:39Yeah, and then there's massive tarts.
05:41Then there's my dad.
05:42And then right on the top of the list, there's him, my baby brother.
05:45Rude.
05:47Lauren, darling, I doubt that Oscar will be interested in the woman in her mid-forties.
05:51Oh, I don't know about that, Lainey.
05:54Love a classy bird name.
05:56It's Miss Peacock to you.
05:57Mm-hmm.
05:58And yes, thank you, I may be a classy bird, but I'm also all woman.
06:02Well, I bet you are.
06:04Okay, just stop.
06:06I'll stick with you two.
06:08Wow.
06:09What have you been looking at?
06:10Told me to snoop.
06:12I'm trying to trace Jasmine.
06:14Loves me with that name, but no sign of her.
06:16Weird.
06:17The way she's hanging around Cindy, I smell her hidden agenda.
06:20Of course, it could be Cindy's pound shot perfume.
06:23Do you not think maybe you're just jumping to conclusions here?
06:26Darling, that is my favourite exercise.
06:30No, I don't get it.
06:31Why would Jasmine be going after Cindy?
06:33I mean, Cindy's skin.
06:35The only thing that she actually owns is like a drawer of crotchless Andes.
06:43Yeah, okay, okay.
06:44But then why doesn't I trace her Jasmine online?
06:47Nice to be trusted.
06:49Jasmine.
06:51Ow.
06:52Look, the baby.
06:54Oh.
06:58You're meant to be a budget hotel.
07:00I can't afford that.
07:05I'm sure Sharon would have given you the money.
07:07If you hadn't robbed her blind.
07:09I said I was sorry.
07:10What else am I supposed to do?
07:12I have to find my son.
07:13So you manipulate her grief for her dead child?
07:16Like that's your only option?
07:17Well, what can I do now?
07:19How about you leave Warford?
07:21Sorry, but why is this any of your business?
07:24Sharon's my sister.
07:26And have you forgotten the bit where you Sam and Chrissie buried our dad in the pub cellar?
07:32It was you, wasn't it?
07:33You broke into my home and smashed that photo.
07:35What?
07:36What you want about?
07:37I didn't kill Den.
07:38But God would have forgiven me if I had.
07:40You stupid face!
07:41Zoe, let's get out of here.
07:43I am not being driven out of my own home because of what happened to that old man.
07:46Leave me alone.
07:48Let's sit in the square.
08:03Okay.
08:05I'm worried about you.
08:08Now you were saying someone broke in.
08:11Why would they do that?
08:13Anthony was horrible.
08:14They smashed a photo of a cat and they stained it with fake blood and left it on my bed almost like a warning.
08:20Uh, it is Halloween.
08:23Not you at all.
08:24This was not Bert and Ernie having a joke.
08:26It's okay.
08:27I believe you.
08:28I'm just trying to find a rational explanation.
08:31I'm a doctor.
08:32It's what I do.
08:33Why would someone do that to me?
08:36It's weird and horrible.
08:38Why don't you come and stay with us?
08:42If you're more comfortable with Dagiolende and Kim's brood, no one will get past that long.
08:49I mean, is that okay?
08:51Just for a short while and until I can work out what to do because me moving back with Cat was a bad idea.
08:57You can stay for as long as you want.
09:01Let's get you inside.
09:09Safe and sound.
09:11Hm.
09:15So, you're looking for your son?
09:18Yeah.
09:22Zoe, um, I have to ask.
09:25You ain't the father of my son, haven't you?
09:29I've been on the pill back then and the dates were years apart.
09:33Okay.
09:35But thanks for making your intentions clear.
09:37Before you move me from the sofa into your bed.
09:40I wouldn't dare.
09:42I can take care of myself, thanks.
09:44You said black no sugar, didn't you, Robin?
10:00Sorry, would you prefer Mr. Dawson?
10:02Oh, no, Robin's fine.
10:03Yeah.
10:04Please relax.
10:05This is just an informal chat to kick off proceedings, I promise.
10:08See, I told you there was no need for nerves.
10:12Would you like a burpee, Robin?
10:14Oh, yeah.
10:15It's, uh, homemade.
10:16Oh, no time.
10:17I gotta get my beach bob back ready for Christmas in Grand Can.
10:22Or maybe just one.
10:27Oh.
10:28Oh, they're delicious.
10:30So, um, how long have you been in the area?
10:33Would you say you're settled?
10:34Yes.
10:35Yeah.
10:36Our, um, home, our roots, our business empire, it's all here in Wilford.
10:42Empire?
10:43Goodness.
10:44I know, right?
10:45She thinks she's in Star Wars.
10:48Portfolio, then.
10:49Portfolio?
10:50Property management, GP practice, rentals.
10:53Bups.
10:55Excuse me?
10:56Sorry, I work, um, for my mate's sandwich business.
10:58Oh, I see.
10:59Except I'm on my own now, because she did a run into Brazil, but...
11:01Pardon?
11:02She's on a pilgrimage.
11:03Yeah.
11:04Stacey's gone to pray at the feet of Christ the Redeemer.
11:07You see, Eve is very supportive of religious observances.
11:12My children and I are Sikh.
11:14And we'd be very open to adopting children from...
11:18diverse backgrounds.
11:19Yeah.
11:20Wonderful.
11:21So, how would your working patterns adapt around a child?
11:24Well, we're autonomous with our schedules.
11:26You know, what with having a big family around.
11:29It's one of the benefits of having a business portfolio.
11:31Portfolio.
11:33Tick.
11:34Yeah.
11:36Oh.
11:37Aren't you good?
11:38Filling in your questionnaires already.
11:41Oh, now, Eve, I'd like to talk about your criminal record.
11:50What's it all about, Alfie?
11:51Fred, where are you?
11:52Come on.
11:53I love you.
11:54He's here.
11:55Good lad.
11:56So, this is team building, all right?
11:58Before we get run ragged tonight, I've sorted out a nice bit of fish and chips for lunch,
12:03which I like to call a funch.
12:04Yeah.
12:05And here, Nan, we got your favourite scampi.
12:07Yeah.
12:08Won't taste that old socks any more either, because Ian finally changed the oil.
12:11There you go.
12:12See, everyone's a winner.
12:13And there's no ulterior motive.
12:14Jean, why would you say something like that?
12:16That hurts me.
12:17I got your message, Alfie.
12:19What's so important?
12:20Oh.
12:21Oh.
12:22I don't need this.
12:23I'm not breathing the same air as her.
12:24Oh, Jean, please, darling.
12:26Please.
12:27Just sit down.
12:30Please.
12:34Guys, come on.
12:35We're supposed to be a family.
12:36What sort of example are we setting to the kids, eh?
12:39Kids?
12:40He's 21 with a foot fetish fan account.
12:44Kat, listen.
12:45Zoe, I know by you coming back you've made your mum happy, and don't you deny it either,
12:50all right?
12:51Jean, I know that Zoe's sorry for what happened between her and Stacey, all right?
12:56I'll say it till I'm blue in the face.
12:58I'm sorry.
13:00Look, why don't I make a cup of tea for everyone?
13:03Because fish and chips need a cup of tea.
13:05Yeah, good girl.
13:06Well done, Zoe.
13:07You see?
13:08One big happy family.
13:09Don't push it.
13:10Don't push it.
13:13We saw online that it wasn't insurmountable, so we're relieved to have it confirmed.
13:18Yeah, thank you.
13:19Well, it goes in your favour that you were open and honest from the start.
13:23But if you go ahead, and I do hope you do, you need a reference from someone who knew
13:28you before your criminal record.
13:30A sibling or a parent is best.
13:32Yeah.
13:33Of course, it makes sense.
13:35Well, that just leaves me with one question.
13:38Would you like to submit your registration of interest?
13:41Yes.
13:42Yes.
13:43Yes.
13:44Yes.
13:45I'm delighted for you both.
13:48Now, there's a long road ahead, and I'm sure you've got a lot to talk about, so I will
13:52leave you to it.
13:53Right, I'll see you out.
13:54I must give you the recipe for that next time.
13:56It's really nice to meet you, Robin.
13:57I'll be in touch with the next step.
13:58Lovely.
14:00Bye.
14:01Bye-bye.
14:02Wow.
14:03That was brilliant.
14:08What?
14:09I'm gonna have to get a reference from my mum.
14:22Since we've lost the Halloween decorations, I am gonna put on a spooky cinema night, downstairs
14:34and, you know, I'm gonna put a horror film on the big telly, and charge extortionate
14:41prices for our cocktails with a captive audience.
14:44You know, it's a genius, isn't it?
14:47I was...
14:48Yeah.
14:55Nan, you going anywhere nice this year?
14:57No, Freddie.
15:02My holiday plans, hopes and dreams have been somewhat derailed since my daughter was run
15:06out of town, and I was left to bring up my broken-hearted teenage granddaughter and
15:10her child all on my own.
15:12How many times?
15:13I've said I'm sorry.
15:16Look, I am gutted about Stacey.
15:19But I am in hell right now.
15:22Someone threatened me yesterday, and I am really scared.
15:25Aw.
15:26Well, you reap what you sow.
15:28Don't talk to her like that, Jay.
15:30So you do believe me?
15:33I don't know.
15:34But you're my daughter.
15:36And no one talks to you like filth except me.
15:40So are you sure you didn't smash your bikes and cut your finger?
15:44I'm sure.
15:45I ain't imagining this.
15:46This is cruel and nasty.
15:49Why would anyone do this to me?
15:52So are you, Sid?
15:53You ain't gotta be scared anymore, right?
15:55No one's gonna hurt you if you stay with us.
15:57Don't move out.
15:58Thanks.
15:59I didn't really wanna leave anyway.
16:00It's sickening.
16:01That's what it is.
16:02I am sickened.
16:03She sells you a whole sob story and you swallow every lie.
16:05Did you not hear what I just said?
16:06Yes, I did.
16:07Now you listen to me.
16:08Your daughter's barely been back five minutes, and she has caused more harm to this family
16:09than I thought possible.
16:11Stacey's gone.
16:12Separated from her own family.
16:13She's gone.
16:14She's gone.
16:15Separated from her own family.
16:16She's gone.
16:17She's gone.
16:18She's gone.
16:19She's gone.
16:20She's gone.
16:21She's gone.
16:22She's gone.
16:23She's gone.
16:24She's gone.
16:25She's gone.
16:26She's gone.
16:27She's gone.
16:28She's gone.
16:30She's gone.
16:31She's gone.
16:32Separated from her eldest and her granddaughter.
16:33Forever, as far as we know.
16:35Stop exaggerating, Jane.
16:36It's not forever.
16:37You don't know that.
16:38So no.
16:40No, no, no.
16:41I cannot forgive.
16:44Right.
16:45Okay.
16:46Then you'd better leave.
16:47Yeah.
16:48Jane, she doesn't…
16:49It's okay.
16:50I'm going anyway.
16:51You protect your family, Kat.
16:52That's your prerogative.
16:53Excuse me while I protect mine.
16:55Nan, wait.
17:00I know how much it hurts when people write you off before they give you a chance.
17:28But you did it anyway.
17:31Sorry.
17:34You know, if you'd have just asked why I don't have an online footprint, I'd have told you about my mum and dad's strict parental controls.
17:42How they blocked my access to social media. I wasn't at a smartphone until I turned 18.
17:49My God, that's awful. Sorry, what happened?
17:53I don't know. Maybe they were just looking out for me.
17:59I generally don't think of that.
18:03Yeah, well, their worries must have rubbed off because I still hate using socials.
18:09You know, in case some weirdo tries to track my movements online.
18:13Oh. But what about Cindy?
18:19Elaine says you ask a lot of questions.
18:22Cindy's been nice to me.
18:25And I don't know, I like the way she rocks a pencil skirt when I'm in her age.
18:29Yeah? Fancy the older ladies, do ya?
18:33Mmm. You're so basic.
18:36Mmm.
18:37You're just a typical, teenage sex maniac, aren't you?
18:49You're too easy.
18:51Ow.
19:01Trust me, Fischl.
19:04Does that mean I'm forgiven?
19:10Yeah. Yeah, right.
19:12One condition, then.
19:14Can I borrow your house keys? I'm desperate for a wee.
19:19Ta, alright, I'll be back.
19:21Ugh.
19:26Oscar and Jasmine sit here in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G.
19:30How much of that did you hear?
19:32Oh, enough to know that you are such a little cute pie.
19:35You can mock me.
19:39I don't care.
19:51Right in here we go.
19:52I don't care, whoever.
19:53Oh, enough to know that.
19:54I don't care.
19:55I don't care.
20:08All right.
20:09All right, ladies and gentlemen, welcome each and every one of you to the official Queen Victoria Spooky Cinema Club!
20:18Yeah, look, we've got Creepy Cops and Alf, Alf. I want to have a long, slow, comfortable scream.
20:26There you go.
20:27I was wondering when that sentence was going to end.
20:29Yeah, didn't we all? The whole pub breathed a sigh of relief.
20:31Hang on, who have you come as it?
20:33I'll give you a clue. Scary lesbian.
20:35Suit me.
20:36Hey!
20:37And I may be raided their wardrobe.
20:39Uh, well, I can get this one. It's the greasy hair, the cheap suit, sleazy swagger.
20:45Nish.
20:46Wow.
20:47No, these are my own clothes, Ian. Thanks.
20:50Let's get a drink.
20:52So I'm encouraging.
21:04Nan, I'll take you on if you want.
21:06No.
21:07I've already lost my family because of Zoe. I'm not losing my friends as well.
21:13Kat.
21:14I'm really sorry to ruin your evening, but I'm worried about Zoe.
21:17Yes, so am I.
21:18She's upstairs hiding from these torch-wielding villagers.
21:22Listen, I know my daughter better than anyone. Just leave her alone and she'll be fine.
21:25Ross Marshall, rare and specialist and video expert at your service.
21:33Well done. Where'd you get it?
21:34Uh, the tip.
21:35The tip.
21:36Oh.
21:37And Zoe, are you gonna look forward to seeing themselves in...
21:39Hey, jeez, check the colour.
21:41Okay.
21:42Right, everybody, if I can have your attention now, please. Thank you.
21:46Here we go.
21:47Oh.
21:49What's that?
21:51Sorry, it's too itchy.
21:52Put it back on, you're gonna scare the kids.
21:54Okay, right.
21:55Hey, listen up, everybody.
21:56Are we ready for the things that go bump in the night?
21:59Yeah!
22:00Are you ready to be scared?
22:02Yes!
22:03Okay, there.
22:04Get ready or I'll catch in the lights off, darling.
22:06Here we go.
22:07Right, let's see what we've got there.
22:10Oh, I don't know what you're ready!
22:18Ah!
22:19I'm looking for that.
22:22We'll make the most of it.
22:23It's nice.
22:25There won't be any us time when we get our child.
22:28Hmm.
22:30Our child.
22:32Hmm.
22:33It's got a ring to it.
22:34It does.
22:37What are we gonna do about getting my mum's reference?
22:40She didn't even come to the wedding.
22:43Yeah, I know.
22:44She was okay when we went to stay with her last year.
22:47You see, that's just it.
22:50She is an unpredictable narcissist,
22:52so she's like that, erm, whack-a-mole.
22:56Because you can prepare for her to pop up like that,
22:58and she just pops up like that.
23:01Listen.
23:02I know you had a horrendous time growing up.
23:07Mm-hm.
23:08Okay?
23:09Yeah.
23:10And I don't condone the monstrous ways she treated you
23:12after your sister died.
23:13Oh.
23:14But...
23:17We...
23:18don't want her in our lives.
23:19Mm-hm.
23:21We don't want her to be the doting grandmother,
23:23but what we do want...
23:25is that reference.
23:27And we are more than capable of wheedling the father.
23:30Interesting.
23:33We will get that reference.
23:36And we will get our child.
23:38Yeah?
23:39Mm-hm.
23:40So...
23:43Why don't you sit back...
23:46and enjoy...
23:49what's left of our precious us time?
23:55Hey!
23:56See, I told you, Mr Dick, didn't I?
23:58Right.
24:02That's right.
24:03The knife's back on.
24:04Lovely.
24:06So...
24:07Oh, hello.
24:08You think it suits me?
24:09Well, I couldn't hide away forever.
24:10Yeah, it's good to see you again, Zoe.
24:11Let me give you an hand.
24:12Yeah, good girl. Lovely.
24:19Vicky, listen.
24:21I'm sorry what Zoe did to Sharon.
24:23I don't want there to be any...
24:24bad feelings between our families.
24:26Drinks on the ass, yeah?
24:29Thanks, Cap.
24:30Now, you'll get no beef from me.
24:31Not me.
24:36Thought you said no beef.
24:39Have a good night.
24:43What?
24:44I don't think I've ever seen this.
24:45I know, honestly.
24:46I found it at the barrel store.
24:47I just thought maybe a bit later we can watch it
24:49and you and Zoe do a bit of bonding.
24:50No.
24:51What?
24:52In case my mum and dad's on it,
24:53it might freak her out.
24:54Are you ready?
24:55Yeah, sorry, I didn't...
24:56I didn't think.
24:57That's right.
25:00Well, that horror movie
25:01had hardly any blood or guts in it.
25:03Well, we could watch Hostel 2 back at yours.
25:05He's a wimp.
25:07He nearly fainted cutting his toenails too short.
25:09Yeah, but don't.
25:10That's right.
25:11All true, all true.
25:12But you could stay over and protect me from the boogeyman.
25:15I know.
25:16Brave soldier.
25:18Actually, I was gonna ask if I could stay for a while.
25:20Just while I'm sorting out my new place.
25:22Definitely.
25:23Please, Peter.
25:25Oh, yeah, I suppose.
25:26Me and Lauren, we're on our honeymoon next week.
25:28So I suppose you could use our bed for a couple of days, but...
25:31Um, I thought you guys had a spare room, actually.
25:34Then I could just stay for a little bit longer.
25:36That's my mum's room.
25:37Yeah, but Cindy ain't back for ages, and she won't know if you don't tell...
25:42I will pay rent, bills.
25:44I'll even help with shopping.
25:48Um, yeah, okay.
25:50Yeah.
25:51As long as it's right with Lauren, that's fine.
25:53But just don't touch anything on my mum's face, yeah?
25:55Nothing.
25:56My husband, Pete.
25:57Oscar, what are you...
26:00Yeah!
26:04Seriously, I promise Cindy won't even know I've been there.
26:06Oh, look, Kat.
26:07It's you and me, isn't it?
26:08Where'd you get that?
26:09Alfie found it.
26:10I wasn't sure you'd want to watch it, to be honest.
26:11Oh, wow.
26:12I look hot.
26:13Oh, that way.
26:15Uncle Larry.
26:16Get it off.
26:17Get it off.
26:18I told you not to put it on.
26:19Oh, stop.
26:20I didn't put it on, I swear.
26:21Well, then who did?
26:22Was it you getting back at me?
26:23Or you telling me because I've got a rapist for a dad?
26:24Oh, of course not.
26:25Zoe, shut up.
26:26No, I won't.
26:27Not until they own up.
26:28Who did it?
26:29Well, get out then, all of you.
26:30Well, no, no, no.
26:31Yes.
26:32Listen, listen, listen, everybody please, just stay where you are, all right?
26:49No, I won't.
26:50No, I won't.
26:51Not until they own up.
26:52Who did it?
26:57Well, no, no, no, no.
26:58Yes.
26:59Listen, everybody, please, just stay where you are, all right?
27:02No, thanks, Alfie.
27:03I'm done.
27:05I've had enough of this horror show.
27:07Get out!
27:12She was looking at me.
27:15I told you, someone is out to get me.
27:29This is what I was trying to tell you.
27:33She is not the Zoe that I remember.
27:35She's just having a tough time since she'd been back.
27:37No, Kat.
27:39Paranoia, wild accusations, heightened behavior.
27:43These are the warning signs of a psychotic break.
27:59I told you, someone is out to get me.
