00:00Oh, lately it means everything.
00:01I can't do this.
00:02When your mates from forensics get to work on that,
00:05they'll realise that Mercedes shot Tony Hutchinson.
00:08Seems to be settling in really well.
00:10Little James has been through a lot.
00:12I want you to come with me, because I love you.
00:15Maybe this will be the answer to all my problems.
00:17Who are you talking to?
00:18I wasn't talking to anybody.
00:30I want you to come with me.
01:00You really need to talk about this.
01:16I am sorting it.
01:19You owe me, son.
01:20I'm gone.
01:25I'm gone.
01:29Was that your dears?
01:35Well?
01:36Oh, yeah, I'm great.
01:37Thanks for asking.
01:38I've been chatting to a girl who I reckon might be pretty into me,
01:41and I think I might be.
01:42Right.
01:46Straight to business, then.
01:47So, the dress you salvaged isn't exactly the smoking gun you're after.
01:52No gunshot residue, no leverage.
01:54Assuming that's what you wanted it to be.
01:56Are you sure?
01:57The sciences, yeah.
01:58And forensics weren't exactly onto a winner.
02:00Were they the charred bit of fabric and a hunch from a scorned lover, though, were they?
02:04Scorned lover might be pushing it.
02:06Still, I'd rather be that than whatever this is.
02:09I'll keep hold of the dress anyway.
02:11Our little secret.
02:13Warren really got to you, didn't he?
02:15But is shunting his baby mum around the picture about you having him?
02:19Or hurting him?
02:20Maybe both.
02:22Maybe neither.
02:23Maybe.
02:25Go fix your old man a coffee before he wakes up.
02:28He's up and out already.
02:29Doing a job for me.
02:31But that's our little secret.
02:33Froggy said you were going to let the mixed situation lie.
02:37You better had.
02:39Anyway, I've got an interview to get ready for.
02:42Oh, and Sully.
02:46No one gets to me.
02:48I get to people.
02:50Remember that.
02:53I just know, Sienna, how much I pumped, when I last did it.
02:56It's a lot to remember.
02:57Sorry, I don't have it all figured out.
02:58OK, but last night, I was just talking to myself, thinking out loud.
03:01I can't stop worrying about him.
03:03It's a lot.
03:04Yeah, it is a lot.
03:06But it's our lot.
03:08And the baby's going to be home soon.
03:09So if you don't want to talk to me, then maybe you could talk to somebody else.
03:12Yeah, I am going to go talk to somebody else.
03:14On my own.
03:20Where's she going?
03:21I don't know.
03:22I think there's something wrong with her.
03:32Right, just watch the walk straight across it, of course.
03:37Hang on a minute.
03:38All right.
03:40Who is he?
03:41Where does he live?
03:41And when can I kill him?
03:43Murder jokes.
03:44Bit too soon, Dad.
03:45Right, well, we've been through this dance with Jacob, so sit down.
03:47Won't take long.
03:48What?
03:50Age.
03:52Older than you would like.
03:55OK, we'll circle back to that.
03:57Job.
03:58Pop.
03:59Really?
04:00Yeah.
04:01Local?
04:02He is now.
04:03Dodger?
04:04No, Dad!
04:05All right, is it serious?
04:07Not yet.
04:07Oh, have you, you know?
04:09Stop.
04:09Name?
04:11Sully.
04:13Froggy's son?
04:14Yeah.
04:14No.
04:15I wasn't asking.
04:16What, I'm still telling you.
04:17Dad.
04:18He's nice.
04:19He's mature.
04:20He's gracious, whatever he is, okay?
04:22You're not going within a mile of him again, all right?
04:24Really?
04:25Well, what about me?
04:26Nancy!
04:27Supposed to be picking you up.
04:28Oh, yeah, you sounded so stressed on the phone trying to make this place presentable,
04:32so here I am.
04:34So, shall we take this interrogation on the road?
04:36Let's go.
04:39I really struggled when the twins were born.
04:42And when Lib had faith, she had postpartum psychosis, and I'm just really worried that
04:48Cleo is suffering way more than any of us realise.
04:51You think I'm overreacting?
04:54I think that not long ago we both had an opportunity to follow our instinct, and we didn't.
05:00So if we have a little voice now telling us that something's really wrong, I think we
05:04should do something.
05:05I promised myself I'd steer clear of this wound once I got out.
05:09But, boy, he's setting it, despite my advice to the contrary.
05:15Nothing leads back to me or Sally.
05:19Mercedes.
05:22Oh, Mercedes, why do you keep running away from me?
05:26Look, what I saw in your eyes yesterday, I recognised it.
05:32It was guilt.
05:34Because I feel guilty, too.
05:36For fearing that the man I love may never truly come back to me.
05:41And I think yesterday you got scared that Tony may never come back, too.
05:46So just tell me the truth.
05:49Mercedes, are you in love with him?
05:52Miss Bar.
05:53Sorry to jump on you like this.
05:56Er, look, it's James.
05:59Look, I really miss him, so if I could just have five minutes with him so I could tell him
06:03that, just so he can hear me voice.
06:04He was placed in our care for a reason, Stee.
06:08And it's only temporary.
06:09I'm just following the rules.
06:12If I don't, James might end up with neither of us.
06:15I'm already asking for five minutes.
06:17You can even sit there while I see him.
06:19I can see you're hurting, but we have to write this out and follow the proper channels.
06:24I've already put in a good word for you because I know...
06:27You don't know anything!
06:29With your perfect family and your fancy job, you've got no idea.
06:31Oh, I have every, every idea.
06:36Hello, brave little man.
06:38I'm trying so hard to be your mummy.
06:42They're all against me, you know.
06:43Sienna, her family, even some of these nurses and doctors in here.
06:52They don't think I can do it.
06:54They don't think I'm capable.
06:56It's my first time.
06:57I thought I'd be really good at it.
07:02My perfect family's been ravaged by secrets and lies.
07:06And there's nothing fancy about watching people suffer, believe me.
07:10I can't sleep.
07:12I can't stay awake either.
07:14I can't even feed you.
07:18I've got to give you a name.
07:21It's just something.
07:26It's just all been so loud and dark in my head.
07:30I am not the problem here.
07:36I never have been.
07:39Now Dodger's offered to open a door into the peace.
07:43And the quiet.
07:45He's asking me to walk through it.
07:48So will you tell me what to do?
07:50I thought it would be enough to love you.
07:58But is it?
08:02He tell me what to do.
08:07He doesn't deserve any of this.
08:10He doesn't.
08:11He really doesn't.
08:12I'm better off without you, mummy.
08:15What?
08:17I'm better off with them.
08:19That beautiful, innocent little boy.
08:21He doesn't know where I've gone.
08:23And I'm lost without him.
08:25No.
08:26You're right.
08:27I failed Lucas.
08:30And now I've failed James as well.
08:32I've failed him.
08:35You failed me.
08:45Oh, yeah.
08:50Listen, you've been amazing these past few weeks.
09:06Oh, you've been a really good mate.
09:08Come on.
09:08You've been my only mate.
09:10And I'm sorry about the misunderstanding.
09:13Stop getting soppy on the air.
09:15See you in a bit.
09:16Hey, Miss Bear.
09:25You okay?
09:27Um, isn't that the wife of the guy that got shot and had a stroke?
09:30Yeah.
09:31Diane.
09:32Yeah.
09:34We're not the only family around here adjusting to a new situation.
09:37And the rest.
09:39Just bumped into Mercedes on the way in.
09:41It looked like she'd been with Diane, but wasn't she?
09:44I'm not really one to gossip.
09:47Oh.
09:48But, um, well, Tony's best friend was arrested for the shooting.
09:53And his alleged motive was that Tony had a fling with his wife, Nancy.
09:58Darren's been released, but no bridges have been built since.
10:03And even though Mercedes was carrying Tony's child, her and Diane have become thick as thieves.
10:12Not that I've given it much thought.
10:14Of course not.
10:15All rather juicy, isn't it?
10:18I'm going to introduce myself to Diane.
10:19She'll be seeing much more of me if I nail this interview.
10:25Diane.
10:27Gemma, isn't he?
10:28Donnie's daughter.
10:29Mix.
10:30Yeah.
10:30Have you got a second to speak in private?
10:32It's about your husband.
10:34I'm sure she's here.
10:41Cleo.
10:42Look, no pressure at all.
10:44Sienna's part of our family now.
10:46And she's really worried about you.
10:48And we all love you so much.
10:50And Cleo, you are doing my Eddie.
10:54Sienna's part of our family now.
10:56If you ever need to talk about anything.
10:59Eddie's nothing wrong with admitting when you're struggling.
11:02I mean, a new kid.
11:03That changes your whole life.
11:04Who cares about you or your baby?
11:06Well, I'll hear for you.
11:08Yeah.
11:08And if you don't think that we're equipped, that there are people...
11:13Stop following us.
11:14Right?
11:15Go talk to somebody else.
11:17Yeah, absolutely.
11:17If you need any help, if you've got questions.
11:20It's a baby, Cleo.
11:22How can you not cope with that?
11:23Do you know what?
11:24We don't even love your...
11:25You're like a broken record, Cleo.
11:28Give it to me.
11:28I can do it.
11:29We are in pieces of life now, Cleo.
11:31I want you to come to me because I love you.
11:34I love you.
11:35I'm not questioning anything anymore.
11:40I know what this is.
11:41And I know exactly what I need to do.
11:44Just stay away from me!
11:46Babe.
11:51I'm sorry I took so long.
11:52My answer's yes.
11:54Yes, my answer's yes.
11:56Cleo.
11:57What are you doing?
12:02I'm leaving you.
12:04I'm sick of you judging me and thinking I can't do it.
12:06What?
12:07And I'm leaving the baby as well.
12:08I'm going to go somewhere where I'm going to be happy with somebody who actually understands me.
12:12No, wait.
12:13And what you said was true.
12:14I have failed him.
12:16So just please try and not fail him like I have.
12:19Cleo, stop.
12:19Wait.
12:20Failed who?
12:21The baby!
12:23So you can have him while I'm gone, see him?
12:25Which I know that's all you really wanted deep down.
12:28I'm going to go be free.
12:29I'm going to go meet him in the folly and we're going really far away.
12:34I'm leaving you for Dodger.
12:36Should we go home?
12:46It felt like an exhibit in a museum.
12:48Everyone was staring at me.
12:51Not enough.
12:52Okay, everyone.
12:54I know that you all think my husband shot Tony and he might have wanted to, but he's not capable of something so terrible, so he didn't.
13:01So if you've got anything you'd like to say, say it now or you can all stop staring at the man I love and go back to your drinks.
13:09Yeah?
13:10No?
13:12Cheers.
13:15Sorry, babe.
13:18It's possibly the cringiest thing you've ever done.
13:20It just makes me love you a little bit more.
13:24I know.
13:28You couldn't stay away from her, could you?
13:31You know, honestly, Mark, I thought that you were above stealing your own sister's girlfriend.
13:34And you might not mind destroying my happiness, but letting Cleo leave her baby, how could you?
13:40I've got a lot to apologise for, Sienna, and I know I've been distracted.
13:46I've been going through some stuff, all right?
13:49I know that you've been getting inside her head.
13:51I know that you're going to meet her at the folly.
13:52But do you know that you have been taking advantage of a woman, a new mother, who is in the grips of a mental health crisis?
13:58She's not well, Mark.
14:02Are you going to say something?
14:02Maybe we should just take a leaf out of her book and just bury whatever is between us.
14:08Whatever.
14:09Works for me.
14:12Drinks are definitely on you.
14:15Congratulations, my girl.
14:17Yeah.
14:18Congratulations on the new gig.
14:20Go on.
14:22No.
14:23Don't make me do another spin.
14:25All right.
14:25Go on.
14:28Hey.
14:29So, um...
14:30You and my daughter, yeah?
14:34Um, just inviting you around tomorrow for some food, if you want, you know?
14:40Get to know you a bit.
14:41For Frankie, of course.
14:43Yeah?
14:50Cleo.
14:51Oh, I knew you'd come.
14:54Oh.
14:56I don't know what I'm doing now.
14:59What?
15:00Come on, don't you come on?
15:03Don't you dare back out now.
15:05I'm leaving my son for you.
15:08What do you need to prove?
15:10You need to prove how serious I am about you, about us.
15:12Hey.
15:13Cleo.
15:15It's okay.
15:15You can have me.
15:16Or wherever.
15:17And it's...
15:18Hang up.
15:18Hang up.
15:19It's not me.
15:27You don't want me?
15:31Is it the baby?
15:33My body's changed.
15:34No.
15:36No, no.
15:36I do want you.
15:38I did want you.
15:39I wanted someone like you for the longest time.
15:46My sister, she's...
15:48She's...
15:50Dreamed of what she found with you her entire life.
15:54Cleo, right now, I think you're lost.
16:12And I am too.
16:17But Sienna, she's the one who can lead you out of this.
16:20So I need to step aside so that she can guide you home.
16:26Even if that means that I stay lost.
16:30Even if that means that I stay sad.
16:32It's just...
16:34It's just...
16:35It's just a while.
16:37But the baby monitor.
16:40Don't you?
16:41We've been talking.
16:42Do you remember?
16:44On your police radio.
16:46And we were...
16:47We...
16:49We...
16:51We...
16:53We were going to escape.
16:56Oh, Cleo.
16:57Whatever, whoever you heard.
16:59It wasn't me.
17:03You love Sienna.
17:05Remember?
17:08Cleo.
17:09Cleo.
17:17I need you to trust me.
17:21Okay?
17:21I only want what's best for you.
17:23I love you.
17:26We love you.
17:29But we think that you need some help.
17:31So please...
17:32Please will you come with us and let us get it for you?
17:35It's okay.
17:55It's gonna be okay.
18:02Bad time.
18:02Don't even go there.
18:05Try me.
18:06I'm a doctor.
18:07My cousin.
18:07She's just had a baby and she's having some machines and I'm staying away because I'm
18:11a selfish cow.
18:12I know about what happened, Mercedes.
18:15The baby.
18:16Let people talk.
18:18And from what I've seen, you are far from selfish.
18:20Or a cow.
18:23To be honest, I wish I had a bit more of you about me.
18:26You all right?
18:29Yeah.
18:29The prescription.
18:32Just to take the edge off.
18:38All good?
18:39Yeah.
18:41They're all good.
18:46Promise you, Cleo, we are gonna get through this.
18:49I love you.
18:50I love our baby.
18:52And I have got you.
18:53Okay.
18:57Thank you for meeting us.
18:58Of course.
19:00Cleo.
19:01You know, from everything I've seen or been told, I believe you're experiencing postpartum
19:09psychosis.
19:10Hello, mate.
19:11Didn't think we'd forgotten your regular bulletin, did you?
19:14Oh, you did?
19:16Well, let me remind you.
19:17You're the weak, pathetic runt who we can't trust to have our backs.
19:21Because you can't even protect yourself.
19:23And I bet you squealed like a pig.
19:25We have specialists, doctors and nurses on the mental health unit who can confirm this.
19:34And they can offer you support.
19:36You just need to come with me.
19:38Oh, no.
19:39No, don't let them do this to me.
19:41I love you.
19:42And you told me you love me.
19:43I know you still do.
19:45You're just scared of her.
19:46Okay, Cleo, Cleo, Cleo, please.
19:49Cleo.
19:49Is that right?
19:51Come here.
19:52It's okay.
19:57Come with me.
19:58You won't be on your own.
20:00You can sit down.
20:01Have a little chat.
