00:01Say that again?
00:04How have we got money to keep quiet about what really happened to Patrick?
00:09Tell him he's wrong!
00:12Tell him!
00:17How could you?
00:19And how did you find out?
00:21That's not important.
00:24Dad, say something.
00:26I swear, it weren't planned.
00:31I saw an opportunity and I took it. It was wrong.
00:35But we really needed the money.
00:37Oh, so you thought you'd just profit off of Patrick's suffering?
00:40Oh, this is sick.
00:41I weren't the one that hurt him.
00:43Patrick, you're like family to me.
00:47But you robbed my engagement ring. That's true, isn't it?
00:52It was in a parcel.
00:53I knew it would be insured. I just wanted to give you the best.
00:56But it wasn't yours to give.
00:57And look where your line motor's got you now.
01:00This doesn't change how I feel.
01:02This changes everything.
01:06I think you should go now.
01:08You don't understand.
01:09You are a compulsive liar, Howie.
01:12Look how you treated my dad.
01:14You were best man at his wedding.
01:17You stood by my side.
01:19Huh?
01:24And how long did you know this?
01:27I mean, shouldn't you have told Kim on her own instead of making a big revelation?
01:34She had a right to know.
01:36Yeah.
01:39That's important, isn't it, Anthony?
01:42The truth.
01:44If any of us was hiding something...
01:46Yolandi's right.
01:48I should go.
01:52Everyone's had enough hurt.
01:53Oh.
01:54Shit.
01:55Oh.
01:56Oh.
01:57Oh.
01:58Oh.
01:59Oh.
02:00Oh.
02:01Oh.
02:02Oh.
02:03You look good.
02:05Mum.
02:06Mum!
02:07No!
02:12What are you doing, mum?
02:13No!
02:15I'm trying to be a good mum to you!
02:16Mum, noo!
02:18Oh!
02:19Mum? No, what are you doing? Mum, no!
02:24I'm trying to be a good mum to you! Mum, no!
02:32Right. So, you have got Ian and Elaine as husband and wife.
02:40Yeah? Why not?
02:42No, no, no. I think that's perfect. They're made for each other, aren't they?
02:47Yeah, but don't go moving me about, will you?
02:50Because I'm looking forward to my starring role as Santa Claus.
02:58You still haven't got an angry old man?
03:00Hmm. Phil?
03:02That is a genius idea.
03:04Good luck with that.
03:07Maybe you could ask him, Pops.
03:09Eh? Me? No, no, no, no, no, no.
03:11Lex, listen, you've got more chance if you ask him yourself.
03:14But I couldn't handle it if you said no. Please? Please?
03:20Alright, alright. I'll ask him. Don't get your hopes up.
03:27No. I just can't believe it that I got him so wrong.
03:34I feel terrible. I mean, I brought him into your home.
03:37Oh. Don't blame yourself. He pulled the wool over all of our eyes.
03:41Well...
03:42Well, that leaves doing all the truth now.
03:44Exactly.
03:45What kind of man he really is.
03:49Are you for real right now?
03:51Er... Kim?
03:53No, no, Dee. There's things you don't, or none of you know about this guy. Yeah?
03:58Now is not the time.
04:00Oh, really?
04:01Because you've had it in for Howie ever since you got here.
04:04So why shall I cover for you?
04:06Okay, so his wife, Sophie, has a restraining order against him.
04:11That's the real reason why you ain't seen the kids, Pops.
04:14A restraining order?
04:15What did you do?
04:16Is...is that right?
04:18Is that right?
04:22I ASK YOUR QUESTIONS!
04:24Pops, come on!
04:25Pops, come on!
04:26Please, please!
04:27I didn't mean to!
04:28I didn't mean to!
04:29Kim! Kim! Kim!
04:30It's okay.
04:31It's okay. Come on.
04:32Leave him with your handy.
04:33Pops!
04:34We'll go to the salon and we'll have a drink.
04:35Come on!
04:36I didn't mean to!
04:37It's fine, darling. Come on.
04:41Dad, it's not how it sounds.
04:43Just leave.
04:45Leave!
04:46Get up! Leave!
04:51Gee...
04:53Oh, sh...
04:56I mean, I'm not just gonna stand by and watch my son have a fix.
05:00Me and your dad are doing everything to give you a second chance.
05:03Meet us halfway, Harry!
05:05Mum.
05:09Sorry, I should have texted.
05:11No, it's fine.
05:12Kojo wanted to see Harry.
05:14All right, mate.
05:16Are you all right?
05:18You look tired.
05:20Yeah, I'm good.
05:22Erm...
05:24Should we give him some space, eh?
05:26Maybe grab something to eat?
05:28Right.
05:29Keep you company.
05:30You staying?
05:31Okay, Joe.
05:32Where'd you get this?
05:45I bumped into Oki's sister.
05:47It's today.
05:48Yeah.
05:49You ain't got me thinking about that right now, mate.
05:51My therapist said it's okay to sit with difficult feelings.
05:57Will you come with me?
05:59I said to Dad that we'd stay here.
06:01I think I need to do this.
06:04You should come too.
06:10There you go.
06:11Wow.
06:12Takes me ages to get him to sleep.
06:15You're a natural.
06:18Oh, sorry.
06:19I didn't mean to put my foot in it.
06:21No, you didn't.
06:22It's just...
06:24Actually, I've got a kid.
06:27I just...
06:29Don't know where he is.
06:31Well, that must be really hard.
06:33You know?
06:34Not being in touch with him.
06:35Yeah.
06:36You keep it down.
06:37Jimmy's asleep.
06:38You told Anthony about the money.
06:39No, he's gone and told everyone.
06:40Me and Kim.
06:41I don't even know what that means for us.
06:42I didn't say anything.
06:43You've ruined my life.
06:44You and Anthony.
06:45Don't go blaming Anthony.
06:46Sounds like he just told Kim the facts.
06:47Oh, yeah.
06:48Because Anthony can never put a foot wrong, can he?
06:50What's that supposed to mean?
06:51Did he tell you about the restraining order?
06:52What?
06:53The one his wife took out.
06:54She got what?
06:55Wait, okay, look.
06:56Whatever she's got, whoever she is, she never got from me.
06:57You told Anthony, didn't you?
06:58About the money.
06:59Oh, yeah, that was me.
07:00Oh, no, no, no, just leave it.
07:01Let me see.
07:02The truth was always going to come out, Harry.
07:03I don't even know what that means for us.
07:04I don't even know what that means for us.
07:05I don't even know what that means for us.
07:06I didn't say anything.
07:07You've ruined my life.
07:08You and Anthony.
07:09Don't go blaming Anthony.
07:10Sounds like he just told Kim the facts.
07:11Oh, yeah.
07:12Because Anthony can never put a foot wrong, can he?
07:13What's that supposed to mean?
07:14Didn't you?
07:15About the money.
07:16Oh, yeah, that was me.
07:17Oh, no, no.
07:18Just leave it.
07:19Let me see.
07:20The truth was always going to come out, Howie.
07:23It's Kim that you should be talking to.
07:30Was that true?
07:31About Anthony?
07:32Yeah.
07:33His ex-wife took it out.
07:39You're having a laugh, aren't you?
07:40Oh, come on, Phil.
07:41Listen.
07:42I've been down there at Flyers the night before that.
07:44I was operating the camera.
07:45I've done my bit.
07:46It's for Lexi.
07:47It'll break her heart if I have to tell her that you said no.
07:51Well, you play the part, then.
07:52I can't, can I?
07:53I'm already in it.
07:54How do you know what frickin' it is?
07:58I'll let her know that you can't do it.
08:01And Nigel, who said that you were perfect for the part, but...
08:12Nan, what is this?
08:13It's faddy stuff.
08:14Yeah, I know, but why are you getting rid of it?
08:15Because he's gone, Lily.
08:16And, um...
08:17I've got no room for being sentimental, because...
08:18Well, there's no room.
08:19Nan, he's not dead.
08:20I know he's not dead.
08:21But it's not coming back, is it?
08:22Nan, stop!
08:23Nan, stop!
08:24I'm sorry I went to Dr Truman.
08:26But this, Nan...
08:27You, this is not normal.
08:28You need help.
08:29Oh, stop!
08:30Fussing me!
08:31Nan!
08:32Nan, you're not well.
08:33And I...
08:34I can't.
08:35I can't.
08:36I can't.
08:37I can't.
08:38I can't.
08:39I can't.
08:40I can't.
08:41I can't.
08:42I can't.
08:43I can't.
08:44I can't.
08:45I can't.
08:46I can't.
08:47I can't.
08:48I can't.
08:49I can't.
08:50I can't.
08:51I can't.
08:52I can't cope.
08:55I can't look after you and everyone else.
08:59Please.
09:00I'm not on my own.
09:02I just...
09:03I need you.
09:05I need you to be well.
09:08Just please go to the doctor.
09:13For me.
09:16Okay.
09:18I'll go.
09:21Dad.
09:22How could you do that to Patrick?
09:36I had my reasons.
09:40What?
09:41Thought you needed cash?
09:43Was that to pay for my festival?
09:46It weren't your fault.
09:49I don't get it though.
09:51I don't get it.
09:52When you saw how much it messed with Patrick's head, how could you just keep quiet?
09:57I'm sorry.
09:58I made a massive mistake.
09:59Now.
10:00I've lost everything.
10:01I deserve it.
10:02You don't.
10:03You can fix this.
10:04Look, can I?
10:05Kim has already told you.
10:06Look, if you loved Kim, you'd be over there right now begging for her to take you back.
10:12Never let me in.
10:13Anthony's probably guarding the front door.
10:14No, no, no.
10:15He's not even there.
10:16Chelsea said it all kicked off again.
10:17Kim told Patrick something about Anthony's ex.
10:18Is Patrick all right?
10:19Go and find out and talk to Kim.
10:20I know you can fix this, Dad.
10:23Listen, your mum ain't going to like me being here, Barney.
10:24She's out.
10:25Okay.
10:26Is that yours?
10:27Yeah, I just wondered if you're going to be there.
10:30You're not going to be there right now begging for her to take you back.
10:32I'm not going to be there right now begging for her to take you back.
10:33Never let me in.
10:34Anthony's probably guarding the front door.
10:35No, no, no.
10:36He's not even there.
10:37Chelsea said it all kicked off again.
10:38Kim told Patrick something about Anthony's ex.
10:39Patrick's all right.
10:40Go and find out and talk to Kim.
10:41I know you can fix this, Dad.
10:44Listen, your mum ain't going to like me being here, Barney.
10:47She's out.
10:48Okay.
10:49Is that yours?
10:50Yeah, I just wondered what you're going to be here.
10:52I just wondered if you've read them.
10:55You've read all these?
10:57Yeah, I can read, Barney, mate.
11:00I've got most of them already.
11:02What do you think?
11:03Well, I mean, that Gandalf's a bit of a G.
11:05The way he takes on Darth Vader.
11:07What?
11:08That big stick tells him to turn back.
11:10I mean, it's like Jon Snow in The Hobbits.
11:12Oh, mate.
11:15Am I not telling it right?
11:16Have you really read any of our bits?
11:18But my memory's terrible.
11:19Oh, well, you are getting on a bit.
11:21Boy, let's say that.
11:23Come on, sit down.
11:24I'm going to school you on Mordor.
11:27Bye, mate.
11:30I told you already, Kim is not here.
11:34Um, Patrick.
11:36He's having a lie down.
11:37He doesn't need to be disturbed.
11:39You'll end it.
11:42Why did you do it, Oye?
11:46Why did you throw it away for 30 pieces of silver?
11:50I was desperate.
11:51I was desperate.
11:52Yes.
11:53Do you know that there were times after Patrick was assaulted that I thought I would never
11:57get him back?
11:58It wasn't me to hurt him.
11:59You didn't hurt him.
12:00The man that he took for another son betrayed him, Oye.
12:04That is worse than any physical wound.
12:08Can you just tell Kim?
12:15Just say I'll come round.
12:18Oh, this was a bad idea.
12:32No, no.
12:33Yeah, maybe Harry's right.
12:34We're here now.
12:35We're here now.
12:36I think we're coming.
12:46You came.
12:47Why don't you all come inside?
12:50It's not much, but there's a few sandwiches there.
12:52No, no, no.
12:53It's all right.
12:54It's just family, innit?
12:55We don't even know anyone in there.
12:56Fair enough.
12:57It's a bit loud in there anyway.
12:58Why don't we go somewhere quiet we can talk?
13:04About Oki?
13:05I like that.
13:18Thanks for bringing Kojo round.
13:20It'll mean a lot to Harry.
13:21Yeah, yeah.
13:23It was his therapist's ideas.
13:26Look, I'm...
13:29I'm sorry I didn't tell you about Kojo being involved in all the drug stuff.
13:33I thought Harry could handle it.
13:36Keep him safe.
13:37Yeah, well...
13:39We all made mistakes, didn't we?
13:41I said things I really shouldn't have said, so...
13:44I'm sorry too.
13:50You okay?
13:51Yeah.
13:52Yeah.
13:53Yeah, I just...
13:54I ate that bit quick.
13:55Erm...
13:56I've got some shopping to do whilst there with Harry, but, er...
14:00This has been really nice.
14:02Oh!
14:03Nicola!
14:04Have you told him that?
14:06No!
14:07I've got to get out of there before I throw up everywhere.
14:10Do you think Patrick's alright?
14:11He's in shock.
14:12He needs some time to process things.
14:13You know?
14:14We all do.
14:15Thanks.
14:16Have I got a neon sign on my forehead that spells mug?
14:18Because I can't understand why I keep getting this kind of men.
14:19It's not you.
14:20No, I know it's not me.
14:21I know that.
14:22I mean, look at me.
14:23I'm fabulous.
14:24But, Howie?
14:25I didn't have that on the bingo card for 2025, mate.
14:26Criminal master.
14:27I've got some time to process things.
14:28You know?
14:29We all do.
14:30Thanks.
14:31Have I got a neon sign on my forehead that spells mug?
14:34Because I can't understand why I keep getting this kind of men.
14:37It's not you.
14:38No, I know it's not me.
14:40I know that.
14:41Well, look at me.
14:42I'm fabulous.
14:43But, Howie?
14:44I didn't have that on the bingo card for 2025, mate.
14:49Criminal mastermind.
14:50Who'd have thought it?
14:52I didn't think he had that much going on upstairs.
14:55Do you?
14:56Well, he's not...
14:58The sharpest tool in the box now, is he?
15:01He's not stupid.
15:03Okay, he may not have big muscles and wads of cash, but he's got a good heart.
15:09Oh, yeah.
15:10Looks like it from what he's done to Patrick.
15:11Oh, and you've never made mistakes, no?
15:13But...
15:15Kim, it's not the first time he's lied to you, is it?
15:18No.
15:19But...
15:20He's not all bad.
15:22Look, he's a great dad.
15:24And he's kind.
15:26And he's my little teddy bear.
15:29Well...
15:30By the sounds of it, you haven't quite written him off yet.
15:35Because I love him.
15:37He's not perfect, but he's mine.
15:40He's the other half of me.
15:43What I'm gonna do...
15:46Whatever's best for you, Pearl and Micah.
15:50That's all you can do.
15:52What about Pops and Andy?
15:55Him sitting there knowing what he's done to them.
15:58They will support you.
15:59We all will.
16:01So, are you all customers of my brother?
16:03No.
16:04Um, he was more of a mate.
16:05Right.
16:06But you've got some stories about him, then.
16:08Um, why don't you tell us about him?
16:11He was good with me.
16:12My dad didn't stick around and my mum was useless, but...
16:13He was always there.
16:14It sounds like you had it tough.
16:15I guess.
16:16He looked after us, brought in money.
16:17He was just a kid.
16:18Not many ways to make money apart from Will.
16:20Um.
16:21It sounds like you had it tough.
16:22Uh, why don't you tell us about him?
16:24He was good with me.
16:26My dad didn't stick around and my mum was useless, but...
16:31Oh, he was always there.
16:34It sounds like you had it tough.
16:36I guess.
16:37He looked after us, brought in money.
16:39He was just a kid.
16:42Not many ways to make money apart from Will.
16:47You know, I tried to get him out of it when I was older, but it was like he always had to be the big man.
16:55He couldn't accept help.
17:01He was well good at art and music when he was at school.
17:05I used to hope that one day he'd get a chance to do something different, something better.
17:09Deep down, I always knew that call was coming to say that he...
17:14Sorry, I've got to go.
17:15Hurry.
17:26I'm not here for a fight.
17:28I could use a drink as much as you.
17:31I guess we're both outcasts now.
17:34You and me, we are not in the same boat.
17:37Good job.
17:38So I'll throw you overboard.
17:39You're not returned that, then?
17:43I'm gonna.
17:45It was a mistake.
17:47I hope Penny sees it that way, because if she tells her that...
17:50Unlike you, Anthony, I own my mistakes.
17:54That's why you're here, drowning your sorrows.
17:59Patrick's gonna see you for what you are one day.
18:02They all will.
18:03What do you know?
18:04I'm a doctor.
18:08I'm one of the family.
18:12Trusted.
18:14You've lost that.
18:17No.
18:19Ain't done fighting for my family yet.
18:21Go on, sling you up.
18:28Go on, sling you up.
18:30Go on.
18:30Sling you up.
18:32How was that?
18:37Absolutely terrifying.
18:39In a good way.
18:41Right.
18:41So we, uh...
18:43We carrying on, then?
18:45Um...
18:46Yeah.
18:47I'll just see where your next speech is, Lexie.
18:50Listen, um, through.
18:53Thanks for doing this.
18:55Sure, mate.
18:56It's for...
18:57Nigel and Lex, isn't it?
18:58Yeah.
18:58Yeah.
19:01Um...
19:02It appears that's your only line.
19:06My only line?
19:09Oh, it's fuss.
19:11That's my only line.
19:13Well, let him do it.
19:13Let Billy do it.
19:15Pops is the lead.
19:15He's got enough to do.
19:17Lead.
19:18The lead.
19:19Right, fine.
19:20Well, I'm done here, then.
19:22Listen, um, why don't we get a takeaway?
19:25It's on you, is it?
19:26Well, no, I'm a bit short.
19:27So it's on me, then, yeah?
19:30Anything else you want from me?
19:32Like, uh...
19:32A kidney, or something?
19:38I knew it.
19:41Perfect, angry old man.
19:43Genius, Carsten.
19:44Who's Pops?
19:49She's through there.
19:53Pops?
19:54I am so, so sorry.
19:56I shouldn't have told you about Anthony like that.
19:59You were hurting.
20:01I understand.
20:03There's no excuse.
20:04Yeah.
20:06Um, so have you spoken to him about it?
20:08Yeah.
20:09Said I would meet up with him.
20:14I'm really sorry about Hobie.
20:16You deserve a perfect engagement party.
20:20What's the use of an engagement party without a wedding?
20:22Listener, ma'am.
20:23Whatever...
20:24Whatever happens, we're always here for you.
20:27Thanks.
20:29Got it.
20:30Thanks, Pops.
20:33Love you.
20:34You too.
20:37See you.
20:38See you.
20:39See you.
20:46Listen.
20:47Den's not right.
20:48My dad's not a bad man.
20:50He gets it wrong a lot.
20:52Believe me, Kim, I know.
20:54But he always tries to get it right.
20:56It's complicated.
20:59And one thing about my dad?
21:01No matter what anyone has done,
21:05he'll always give them another chance.
21:07He's done that for me.
21:09And you.
21:18How do you remember all this?
21:20When I was your age, the only thing down for me was
21:22footballers and girls' names.
21:26What are you doing here?
21:30Where's your brother, Barn?
21:31Zach came to see me.
21:33I don't know where Harry is, do I?
21:35You should have texted me first.
21:39Yeah.
21:41Listen, Barn, thanks for having me, mate.
21:43Nice one for the book smarts.
21:45Barnie!
21:46Oh, I...
21:50Teenage hormones.
21:52Oh.
21:53Believe it, then, how'd you explain Harry?
21:56Nicola, don't you think you should have said something to George?
21:59You know.
22:00All right, honey?
22:01Hi.
22:02Harry, where you been?
22:03I've been with Coach and Jeannie.
22:04You knew that.
22:06Harry...
22:06All of this has just got to follow me around forever, innit, Mum?
22:09I'm never going to escape it.
22:11You can't think like that, darling.
22:12Listen, I'll go.
22:13No, it's OK.
22:13Stay.
22:15I've got to go lie down anyway.
22:16At least he's talking to me about it now.
22:25It means I'm not going to be able to help him.
22:27You need help, too, though, Nicola.
22:30You've got a baby on the way.
22:34You can't ignore it.
22:35You saw George earlier.
22:37He's got enough on his plate with Kojo.
22:39He doesn't need to find out he might be a dad again.
22:40No, he's going to notice eventually.
22:43Not if there ain't a baby.
22:44Harry?
22:46Oh, so you're thinking...
22:48I don't know, honey.
22:49All I know is that Harry needs me right now.
22:55Listen, Emma.
22:56You don't get a restraining, whatever, not me.
22:59Sophie had a good lawyer.
23:01The sort of lawyer big money can get you.
23:02Yeah, but if you didn't do anything wrong...
23:04Sophie knew what to say.
23:06That it would secure her full access to the children.
23:08Yes, but you could appeal it, surely.
23:10The dads always lose out.
23:11You know that.
23:14Look me straight in the eye...
23:18And swear that you're telling me the whole truth.
23:25I swear...
23:27That...
23:29I can't take another son betraying me, you know.
23:33I know.
23:35I swear.
23:36Okay, let's...
23:44Let's move on from this.
23:48Now, if there's anything...
23:50Sophie...
23:52Want and the children...
23:54No, I'm handling it, but...
23:59It means a lot.
24:00Another?
24:06Yeah, yeah.
24:18I don't know what I want, Howie.
24:22It will...
24:23I do, Sophie.
24:26Hear me out, please.
24:27I love you, Kim.
24:33I know we haven't always had it easy, but...
24:37You make the world seem better.
24:41You have this way of making me see everything a bit...
24:46Brighter.
24:47When I first met you...
24:53If someone had said to me...
24:55Yeah, he's the one.
24:58Not flashy, no fireworks...
25:00But a proper, safe, lifetime kind of love...
25:04I would have said, you need your head examined.
25:07But then...
25:08It happened.
25:09I learned to love you.
25:12To trust you.
25:14To rely on you, no matter what.
25:17I'm still that man.
25:19No, Howie.
25:21You're the man who lied to me at the scrapyard.
25:25He was too scared to tell me the truth about Vincent.
25:29That was you.
25:31And that's still you.
25:33No.
25:33You made me a better man.
25:37But that's what I thought.
25:39And then you do this.
25:40Yeah, but all this, I've done it for you.
25:42For me?
25:43For me?
25:45Oh, how dare you?
25:47How dare you?
25:48Kim, I know the life you wanted.
25:51All the luxuries and that, and I wanted to give it all to you.
25:53So you're saying that all of this is my fault?
25:56Trying to explain.
25:57Well, go on then.
25:57I'm trying to be the man you wanted.
25:59To give you the life you deserve.
26:00No, I deserve a life with you, Howie.
26:02And you've thrown it away.
26:05I can't trust you now.
26:06So if we don't have trust, then what do we have?
26:09What about Denzel and Pearl and Micah?
26:11Our little family.
26:12It's going to break their hearts.
26:14No, use this to me, okay?
26:15This is between me and you.
26:18Okay?
26:21Denzel's place is always here.
26:23If he wants to stay here, he can stay here.
26:28Don't do this, Kim.
26:29I am begging you.
26:37You know what?
26:39It's over.
26:41It's over.
26:42I'm done.
26:44Denzel can bring in your things.
26:45Thanks for today.
27:11I should be getting back.
27:12Why don't you stay at mine tonight?
27:18Oscar and Peter are out anyway.
27:20I can cook.
27:21You can entertain the kids.
27:23Yeah.
27:23Go on then.
27:27So, do you really think this is just Anthony doing all this escape?
27:31I don't know.
27:33His ex has got a restraining order.
27:34But I thought it was Tommy and Gene.
27:38It could be anyone.
27:39He knows.
27:44He knows.
27:45He knows.
27:45He knows.
27:46He knows.
27:47He knows.
27:47He knows.
27:48He knows.
27:49I've already did.
27:50He knows.
27:50He knows.
27:51But then, he knows.
27:53He knows.
27:53Who loves him.
27:54Baby and Jose wants to come out.
27:59Hold Tahit.
28:00He knows.
28:00He knows.
28:01He knows.
28:02So, what if there's other people,
28:03we have to do the karaoke.
