00:00Late for breakfast. Make sure we'll have our heads.
00:06Not if we take a shortcut. Come on.
00:09Wait for me!
00:20Look!
00:22I thought no-one lived in the cottages. There's smoke coming out from the chimney.
00:25It's probably just the children from the village playing around or something.
00:30Hurry, Jo.
00:33Hurry, Jo.
00:35Let's go.
00:36Let's go.
00:37Let's go.
00:38Let's go.
00:39Let's go.
00:40Let's go.
00:42Let's go.
00:43Let's go.
00:44Let's go.
00:45Let's go.
00:46Let's go.
00:47Let's go.
00:48Let's go.
00:49Let's go.
00:50Let's go.
00:51Let's go.
00:52Let's go.
00:53Let's go.
00:54Let's go.
00:55Let's go.
00:56Let's go.
00:57Let's go.
00:58Let's go.
00:59Let's go.
01:00Let's go.
01:01Let's go.
01:02Let's go.
01:03Let's go.
01:04Let's go.
01:05Let's go.
01:06Let's go.
01:07Let's go.
01:08Let's go.
01:09Let's go.
01:10Let's go.
01:11Let's go.
01:12Let's go.
01:13Let's go.
01:15Is..is that the time?
01:19Get up now!
01:21And you, Ms. Headgirl, you were supposed to be monitoring breakfast this morning.
01:25Sorry, I overslept.
01:27At your desk?
01:28A silly girl, stays up to the early hours revising and she keeps me up too.
01:32Goodness knows what time I've finally dozed off.
01:36I have barely slept.
01:38How long has this been going on?
01:39Days.
01:40If you keep this up any longer, I am going to get bags under my...
01:42Shh! Matron, I can explain.
01:44No! You get washed and dressed.
01:47I will be back here shortly.
01:51Thanks for that, Gwen.
01:59Oh.
02:06I think we should go to the cottage. Take a proper look.
02:09Joe, it was just a little smoke.
02:11Well, it could have been the intruder.
02:14Do you think so?
02:16I mean, imagine we would have solved a real mystery.
02:20That would have been brilliant.
02:21I say we should go exploring at break time. Have an adventure.
02:32I'm so sorry I missed my duties.
02:34I'm just so stressed about the higher side.
02:37There's just so much to memorise. I've spent days trying to learn the bones of the leg and foot, and it's just not sticking.
02:44And how can I be a doctor if I can't even learn the basics? It's all just too much.
02:49Enough! I know how to deal with you.
02:51Like this.
02:59They're for you and Sally.
03:01Matron wants me to take you out to get some fresh air and clear that head of yours.
03:06Up till silly o'clock revising.
03:08Hardly getting any sleep.
03:10You'll run yourself into the ground.
03:12No one can be productive if they are overworked.
03:15It's about balance.
03:17Matron's right. You need a break.
03:19Thank you, Matron.
03:22I just...
03:24really need to get back to work.
03:27No. What you need is to forget about it for a couple of hours.
03:31Outside. Now.
03:38Can someone stay back and help me set up for my next lesson?
03:42June?
03:43Yes, Mademoiselle. Happy to help.
03:45And so is Felicity.
03:47Aren't you?
03:48Well, actually, please.
03:52Of course.
03:54Merci beaucoup, les filles.
03:55What about the cottage?
03:57It'll have to wait.
04:02Josephine?
04:04Are you helping too?
04:05Sorry. I have some prep work I need to finish.
04:16Drinking gingerbread during the day feels wrong.
04:18It'll be yet so right.
04:21Thanks for these.
04:22Miss breakfast.
04:23How many moons does Mars have?
04:24Two.
04:25Phobos and Deimos.
04:26Meaning fear and dread.
04:28Precisely how I feel about these exams.
04:29Are those treats in your hands instead of books?
04:32Who are you and what have you done with Daryl Rivers?
04:34Join us.
04:35I wish we could, but we're on our way to the common room to meet the others.
04:38Provision is exhausting.
04:40I've barely covered the English civil wars and I have yet to get started on the American
04:44revolution.
04:46I haven't even started on history.
04:47I've been too fixated on science.
04:49Gosh, it feels like we're absolutely drowning in information, doesn't it?
04:52Come on.
04:53Let's leave them to it.
04:56What are you doing?
04:57How can I relax when everyone else is revising?
05:00Everyone else isn't up half the night and Matrian said you're not to open up another book
05:04until after lunch.
05:05Matrian means well.
05:07But I'll rest once exams are over.
05:27I'll rest once in a while.
05:57Miss Vernon?
06:09I'm really worried about Daryl.
06:11Matrian's plan didn't work.
06:12Oh, great.
06:13Another restless night.
06:15She's getting us off into her real tears.
06:17She's not sleeping or eating properly.
06:19We must find a way to help her relax.
06:22Well, music always helps me unwind.
06:24I say we have a feast.
06:27We deserve one.
06:28Yes, and dancing.
06:30It will loosen us up.
06:31Sounds like we're about to have a party.
06:33Smashing idea.
06:35Do we really have time to party?
06:37I think we'll have trouble convincing Daryl.
06:40Let me deal with her.
06:41Having fun is exactly what she needs to release some tension.
06:43In fact, we all do.
06:46All right.
06:46We're on.
06:47Come in.
07:00Come in.
07:07I can't believe you're staying here.
07:10Well, it's only for a few days until I arrange something more permanent.
07:17Please, sit.
07:21I wasn't expecting any visitors.
07:25Otherwise, I would have spruced it up a bit.
07:29Shouldn't you be at school?
07:41Well, I mean, it seems a bit silly now, but I thought you might have been the intruder.
07:49Intruder?
07:51Someone broke into the building.
07:53Oh, well, how frightful.
07:55Any idea who it was?
07:57No, but when we saw the smoke from the cottage...
08:00We?
08:02Oh, Felicity and June.
08:04And me.
08:05And they...
08:06didn't come with you?
08:09Oh.
08:09Well, actually, Felicity was meant to come with me.
08:18But it doesn't matter.
08:19She doesn't know I'm here.
08:29Well, this is, um, all rather embarrassing.
08:34What must you think of me living like this?
08:37It just doesn't seem right.
08:41Oh, I know, dear.
08:46Miss Grayling made it clear I'm no longer welcome.
08:51Well, you wouldn't want me to get into trouble.
08:55Of course not.
08:56I just wish there was something I could do to help.
08:59Oh.
09:01Well, it's not exactly the Ritz, but at least it's a roof over my head.
09:05Oh, um...
09:08I'm afraid I'm being a terrible host.
09:12I have nothing to offer you apart from some stale bread.
09:18Oh, Miss Vernon, you must be starving.
09:21Oh, no, no, I'll...
09:22I'll get by.
09:27Unless...
09:28Unless what?
09:29Tell me, please.
09:31You could get me some food.
09:36I can try.
09:38Oh...
09:39You are such a darling.
09:43Well, then, off you go.
09:45Head back.
09:47Before the girls become suspicious.
09:49Oh, and, uh, Josephine, promise me, not a word to anyone.
09:59This is our little secret.
10:04I promise.
10:05I promise.
10:05Where's Jo?
10:21We thought she was with you.
10:22She said she had to finish her prep.
10:24Wherever she is, she about to hurry up.
10:27She's getting all the work.
10:31I think I know where she is.
10:33Hello, Jo.
10:33Oh, hello.
10:36What's going on?
10:40You went back to the cottage, didn't you?
10:42What?
10:45Yes.
10:46You shouldn't have gone on your own.
10:47What if it was the intruder?
10:49It was empty.
10:52You were right, June.
10:54The smoke is probably some kids falling around.
10:58See?
10:59Next time, don't keep me in the dark.
11:01Especially you, Felicity.
11:03Here we are.
11:21Tarsals, metatarsals, phalanges.
11:23Guess what?
11:27We're having a party tonight.
11:28We've decided we all deserve a break from studying.
11:30Our last feast before the exams.
11:32That's lovely, but I'm afraid I can't join you.
11:35Come on, Daryl.
11:36Irene just got new records.
11:37And Mary Lou and Bill went to the village to get trees.
11:40I'm sorry, I just need to revise.
11:43Never forgive myself if I failed.
11:45I told you.
11:51Alicia, agree to join us later and you can have it back.
11:54No, give it back to me.
11:57Alicia, I'm being serious.
11:59We're serious about you needing a break.
12:01Stop it, Alicia.
12:02Alicia.
12:03I said stop!
12:06No one will have a party.
12:07That is my order to said, girl.
12:10No, just leave me alone.
12:18I'm sorry.
12:20Daryl's right.
12:21Cancel the party.
12:22I'm going to join her and revise.
12:25Go on, scram.
12:25We need to get to work.
12:26I'll go get my books.
12:27I'll go get my books.
12:27Don't worry.
12:35I have a plan.
12:41Come in.
12:42Oh, there's trouble for little old me.
12:46I brought everything I have.
12:50I knew I could rely on you.
12:53If there's anything else you need, just ask.
13:02If only it were that easy.
13:05What do you mean?
13:06Well, I know I didn't grow up at Mallory Towers like Miss Grayling,
13:11but seeing so many memories of my late father just reminds me that, well, I have nothing.
13:22Not a single photograph, or painting, not even his chess set.
13:32The one we used in the film?
13:36Yes, it was very dear to my father.
13:40Such a treasured memory.
13:42Miss Grayling, let me take it.
13:46That doesn't sound like the Miss Grayling I know.
13:48Sadly, it sounds like the cousin that I do.
13:50Maybe, maybe I just have to accept that I'll never get it back.
13:59Oh, Miss Vernon, please don't cry.
14:03No.
14:05I'll get it for you.
14:07Oh, no, no, no.
14:08I couldn't possibly ask you to do that.
14:11Go behind your headmistress' back.
14:13Absolutely not.
14:13It means so much to you.
14:15Please, let me help.
14:17Oh, well, how?
14:18It's now all locked away in the study.
14:23Oh.
14:26I didn't think of that.
14:29I have an idea.
14:32Which might work.
14:34What is it?
14:39A skeleton key.
14:43Huh?
14:43It's a key that can unlock all types of doors.
14:49Why do you have one?
14:52Uh, well, I needed it to lock the cottage, of course.
14:58One can never be too careful.
15:01Anyway, are you thinking what I'm thinking?
15:07What are you thinking?
15:09That it might work on the cabinet inside Miss Grayling's study?
15:15Well, there's only one way to find out.
15:18You would do that for me?
15:21So, how does it work?
15:25Is it like any other key?
15:27Yes, but you have to do it at night, when everyone's asleep.
15:34Oh, no, I can't.
15:38If you're caught, we'd be in such trouble.
15:41But I won't be caught, and if I am, I'll think of something, I won't mention you.
15:45Oh, you really are the most wonderful little girl.
15:52So kind, caring, and giving.
15:55It's such a shame that your mother can't see for herself.
16:01I know she would have been as proud of you as I am.
16:07I'm just glad I can make you proud.
16:12Oh.
16:14Oh, come on, then.
16:15Okay, where is your patella?
16:38In the leg.
16:40More specific?
16:41Right, bedtime.
16:42Just five more minutes.
16:43Gwen, please.
16:46Another word, and I'll have matron up here.
16:48Let's just go to the common room.
17:13Hmm.
17:41I don't mind revising a loan if you want to sleep.
18:07I'm not leaving you.
18:08Daryl Rivers, as your fellow Sixformers, and most importantly, friends, you demand that
18:19you relax.
18:20Though I do need to catch up on my beauty sleep, I could hardly resist a party.
18:25You planned all of this.
18:27I'm surprised you weren't suspicious when I chose revising over having fun.
18:31Turn the music off, now.
18:38My exams are more important to me than having fun.
18:41So but ours, Daryl.
18:42And you're not the only one who's stressed.
18:44We all are.
18:45Then I won't stop you, but I'm going back to my room.
18:50Don't you get it?
18:52Seeing you so worked up and sleep deprived is upsetting.
18:55We can't relax unless you do.
18:57Remember what Matron told you about Valence?
19:00It's our last turn to make memories together.
19:04Please, Daryl.
19:05For us.
19:07I'm lucky to have you all.
19:11I really am.
19:16But.
19:17But.
19:18But.
19:19But.
19:20I can't party while carrying these books.
19:23I read the music and pass me that ginger beer.
19:29I can't party while carrying these books, but I can't party while carrying these books.
19:44I can't party while carrying these books.
19:50I can't party while carrying these books.
20:09I can't party while carrying these books.
20:19It's a giant world out there.
20:46It's more like it's a giant shell of absurdity, but I'll always snail home, snail home to thee.
21:10It's a crazy world out there of exams and studies, but we won't fail, we won't fail, you'll see.
21:20Our friends partying together, freeze up the mind perfectly, femur, patella, tibia, fibula,
21:28tarsals, metatarsals, phalanges!
21:30Goodness, I've got it!
21:31That's a super mnemonic, sing it again.
21:34Friends partying together, freeze up the mind perfectly, femur, patella, tibia, fibula,
21:41tarsals, metatarsals, phalanges!
21:47To Daryl acing it, and to our final feast at Mallory Towers.
21:54To Daryl!
22:10Woohoo!
22:18Woohoo!
22:29Woohoo!
22:40Josephine Jones. What are you doing out of bed?
22:50I... I just couldn't sleep.
22:53I can see that.
22:54I mean, I've got this really bad headache and I just wanted some fresh air.
23:01No, you'll do no such thing up at this hour. It's no wonder you have a headache.
23:05Back to bed.
23:10Oh, wait, look.
23:12Oh, look, everyone.
23:13Oh, sh...
23:14Oh, thank heavens. I can finally sleep in beats.
23:29Turn off the music.
23:31Okay, let's go.
23:33Good night, Daryl.
23:37Good night, Daryl.
23:39Good night, Daryl.
23:40Good night, Daryl.
23:41Good night, Daryl.
23:45Good night, Daryl.
23:46Good night, Daryl.
23:47Good night, Daryl.
23:51Good night, Daryl.
23:52Good night, Daryl.
23:53Good night, Daryl.
23:54Oh, I was beginning to worry.
24:15I am so sorry, Miss Vernon.
24:19Matron called to me last night.
24:21Oh, Josephine.
24:25I've got it.
24:28Josephine, how can I ever thank you?
24:31You deserve it.
24:36I better get back before Matron's rounds.
24:39Oh, of course.
24:42Will I see you again before you leave?
24:45Oh, better not risk it, dear.
24:48But before I go, if I ever need you, I'll send a signal.
24:56Smoke from the chimney.
24:58And I'll be right here when you do.
25:03Goodbye, Miss Vernon.
25:06Goodbye, sweet girl.
25:08I'll be right here.
