00:00You probably want to pull the whole thing off. I feel exactly the same.
00:04Is that a hint? Is that what you want?
00:07No. Are you telling me that's what I should do?
00:14What is it you're looking for?
00:16Paracetamol.
00:18I usually keep a stash at work, so...
00:21Yeah, so do I. Sarah must have robbed them.
00:24Is there any chance you could give me a lift?
00:26No. Let's see if I could get the tram.
00:29Fine.
00:36Alright.
00:37Alright, I'll level with you.
00:39If you weren't in the picture and she hadn't have died, then...
00:41Then, yeah, we probably would still be together.
00:43But you are in the picture, front and centre, Carla.
00:46And she did die.
00:50Alright, she didn't die, but for the purposes of the argument...
00:53Lisa, you kissed!
00:55That's the thing that I can't get past!
01:01It really wasn't like that.
01:03But she'll persuade you in the end.
01:05I'm not available.
01:07Oh, God, everybody's available, Lisa.
01:09There might be an emotional price, but everybody's available.
01:15If you didn't love me, then you'd walk away.
01:17Finally!
01:18The table of mine is here!
01:21Ryan.
01:24Well, there's the hero's welcome.
01:26What have I missed?
01:33How many of those you had today?
01:35What? Why?
01:36You've had enough, alright?
01:39You need to slow it right down.
01:41Oh, actually, yeah.
01:42I've been splitting a bit.
01:44Yeah, I'm not surprised.
01:46Take a leaf out of my book.
01:47Peppermint tea.
01:48That is the strongest thing I had to drink out of it.
01:50I know.
01:52Ryan, please tell me I've got nothing to worry about.
01:54That she loves me and she's not gonna run off with some gumless skanky thing.
01:57I've been hiding behind the tree in Alicante for the last four years.
01:59Will you stop it?
02:01Go on.
02:02It'd be really nice to see everyone out there, wouldn't it?
02:05Yeah.
02:09Nice to look all at him and Uncle Paul.
02:11Oh, Ryan.
02:12Look forward, darling, never back.
02:14Nostalgia.
02:16It's a racket.
02:18I'm here.
02:23Betsy, not him?
02:24No.
02:25Lisa?
02:26Just you and me.
02:27Am I about to get waxed?
02:28Play your cards, right?
02:30Okay.
02:31Let's hear it.
02:33Okay.
02:35Look, Becky, I know your daughter's here, okay?
02:39And I know that you want your old life back.
02:43But see, the thing is, your old life, that doesn't exist anymore.
02:49Okay?
02:51Me and Lisa, look, we jointly owned this house.
02:56That's just paperwork.
02:57Well, it counts for something.
02:58A bit like your old death certificate.
03:00They misidentified the buddy.
03:03But he did the job.
03:05You know, because...
03:07As far as the law of the land goes, you're not married anymore.
03:11You are officially underground.
03:13Probably where you belong.
03:14She kissed me.
03:15You kissed her!
03:16What, is this a playground?
03:17I saw it in her eyes.
03:18She still loves me.
03:19You know, whatever I put them through, whatever it says on that paperwork.
03:20The eyes always tell the truth.
03:22Becky, you don't stand a chance.
03:23Go back to your husband.
03:24Isn't one of them still alive?
03:25I see the gloves are off now.
03:26Yeah.
03:27I saw Lisa this morning coming out of the corner shop.
03:28She was wearing a top I once bought her.
03:29Oh my gosh, you're spying on us now.
03:30It all came rushing back to her yesterday.
03:31I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I think you're probably sensing it anyway.
03:32You're probably sensing it anyway.
03:33I saw it in her eyes.
03:34I saw it in her eyes.
03:35I saw it in her eyes.
03:36She still loves me.
03:37Whatever I put them through, whatever it says on that paperwork.
03:38The eyes always tell the truth.
03:39Becky, you don't stand a chance.
03:40Go back to your husband.
03:41Isn't one of them still alive?
03:42I see, the gloves are off now.
03:43Yeah.
03:44I saw Lisa this morning coming out of the corner shop.
03:46She was wearing a top I once bought her.
03:47Oh my gosh, you're spying on us now.
03:49It all came rushing back to her yesterday.
03:51I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I think you're probably sensing it anyway.
03:55You know what?
03:56Becky, you look better in a mask.
03:58It was liberating.
03:59For Lisa too.
04:01We bought some in Venice on our honeymoon.
04:04It probably reminded her of that.
04:06It's quite sexy, being incognito.
04:09You had a problem with alcohol too, I hear.
04:13I beg your pardon?
04:14As well as blokes.
04:15When you were leaving.
04:17All right.
04:18I'll see myself out.
04:19No bother.
04:20Yeah.
04:21Well, she was goading you.
04:26She likes to be in control, but now she isn't any more.
04:31And she's jealous on top of everything else.
04:33She bought you that top.
04:35And she bought me these earrings.
04:37And she might have even bought the socks I'm wearing as a birthday present.
04:40But the point is, Carla, I was married to her for years.
04:43Has she booked a flight yet?
04:44I don't know.
04:45You're the one that spoke to my mask.
04:46She needs to go.
04:47And she will.
04:48I don't think she's got any intention of it.
04:51Well, she's going to have to stay in Betis' life, isn't she?
04:53But all this interference, it won't last.
04:55She's come back from the dead to reclaim you, Lisa.
04:56It's like living in a blooming thriller video.
04:57I promise you she'll be gone.
04:58Well, then you need to tell her that.
04:59Okay?
05:00Once and for all.
05:01Don't push me away, I'm begging you.
05:02It's been hell.
05:03You were the light at the end of the tunnel.
05:08We can make it work.
05:09It's too late.
05:10I don't like her.
05:11She's all wrong for you.
05:12I don't trust her at all.
05:13It's done, so stop trying.
05:14Say it.
05:15If she wasn't around.
05:16You don't have to say it.
05:17It's enough for me just to know.
05:18Have you booked a flight yet?
05:19Yeah, I'll go back to Spain.
05:20Don't panic.
05:21I'll go back to Spain.
05:22Don't panic.
05:23I'm begging you.
05:24I'm begging you.
05:25It's been hell.
05:26You were the light at the end of the tunnel.
05:27We can make it work.
05:28It's too late.
05:29I don't like her.
05:30She's all wrong for you.
05:31I don't trust her at all.
05:32It's done, so stop trying.
05:33Say it.
05:34If she wasn't around.
05:36You don't have to say it.
05:38It's enough for me just to know.
05:41Have you booked a flight yet?
05:43Yeah, I'll go back to Spain.
05:44Don't panic.
05:47Good.
05:49But I presume Betsy told you.
05:53She's coming with me.
06:04Brexit doesn't matter for me.
06:05Well, you have a false identity, but it would matter for her.
06:08Well, there's ways around everything.
06:09You do know you'd have to come back after 90 days, don't you?
06:12We'd apply for a visa.
06:13On what grounds?
06:14I'd get a waitressing job.
06:16Well, you struggled to even boil the kettle, Betsy.
06:18I'd make sure she was safe if she stayed longer.
06:21And you really think that this is the best way forward for an 18-year-old kid who has a whole future ahead of her, hmm? Dodging the system in Spain?
06:28It might be exciting.
06:29It might be exciting.
06:30Being detained by passport control.
06:31Yeah.
06:32Yeah, that's loads of fun.
06:33Maybe this is what she's so keen to get away from, being patronised and condescended to.
06:38Well, take her.
06:39Be my guest.
06:40See how you get on together.
06:41I wish you both the very best of luck.
06:43I hate it when you get like this.
06:45I always used to hate it.
06:47Get like what?
06:48Rational.
06:49Unlike you, I still live in the real world.
06:52And I'm not invisible and nor is she.
06:55We can't all have government-sponsored false identities and lavish villas.
06:59Look, you wouldn't need one.
07:00We'd have mine.
07:01It's not that lavish.
07:02Look, if you don't want her to stay with me forever, let her come for 90 days.
07:07Well, nothing's stopping her.
07:09Knock yourselves out.
07:10We should let Mum absorb this properly.
07:12Mm-hm.
07:13With a calm head.
07:15See you, too.
07:18Love you.
07:19You, too.
07:20We could all go.
07:24Carla, too.
07:26Yeah, yeah.
07:27Great idea.
07:28And then after the 90 days is up, we could live under the radar.
07:32Hide in a cave, maybe.
07:34Give up our jobs, our home, our cars.
07:39Yeah, she was right.
07:40You are a nightmare when you get like this.
07:43You would have to trade everything for the life that she's promising, you know.
07:46With a fake identity.
07:48You would be as good as on the run.
07:49I'd get a visa.
07:50They don't just hand them out like confetti.
07:53No, I'm sorry, Betsy.
07:55We can't all move to Spain.
07:57Life just doesn't work like that, and Brexit most certainly doesn't.
08:00Not to mention your mum's quote-unquote situation.
08:03This whole thing, it's just a pipe dream.
08:08Why do people say quote-unquote?
08:10Darling, I don't mean to upset you, you know.
08:13If those things weren't in the way, would you come with us?
08:27And live as one big happy family?
08:31Carla too?
08:33No.
08:35No, Betsy.
08:38I'm afraid that wouldn't be for me.
08:42She stormed off up the stairs.
08:46I like the bit about the cave.
08:48It's true though, isn't it?
08:50Three mums in the cave with an 18-year-old waitress all on the run in Spain.
08:54Not a bad premise for a sitcom, that.
08:56Kind of like a woke twist on the Flintstones.
08:58Uh-oh.
09:02Auntie Collar isn't laughing.
09:04They got Becky a villa.
09:06I mean, what's to say?
09:07They're not going to get Betsy a visa.
09:08None of this is laughable, is it?
09:10No, I'm all for having an adventure, you know.
09:12Living abroad and travelling, but preferably with mates her own age.
09:15Yeah, well, it will be an adventure.
09:17Especially compared to rainy old Weatherfield.
09:19Maybe I should live with Becky.
09:21I loved it when I was out there, mate.
09:23And my Spanish isn't that bad.
09:24Oh, great.
09:25I'll just be left on my own.
09:26You really think I go?
09:27I don't know.
09:29What, on transfers with the Spanish police force?
09:32Not sure I'd get by on dos cervezas por favor.
09:35You'd pick it up.
09:37Plus there's Interpol.
09:38Anyway, it doesn't really rain that much in Manchester.
