00:00Sam!
00:13Uh, sorry, I'll call a gun.
00:30I'll call a gun.
01:00What are you doing?
01:18Nigel!
01:30I've got to be in the library all day.
01:43Can you spare five minutes?
01:44There's just something I want to talk through with you.
01:46I've got to be in the library forever, if you could.
01:54What are you doing?
01:57I ain't got more than a fiver in there, have you?
01:59Harry, what are you doing?
02:01Darling, this has got to stop.
02:02Look, I know going to Oaky's wake was hard, all right?
02:05But you can't keep going round and round like this.
02:07It'll be the last time, I promise.
02:08Shh, that's what I always say.
02:10How can you do this?
02:11Your dad is...
02:12Look, once he goes to trial, he'll get off.
02:15And then he'll be home.
02:17Just help me out.
02:18Okay?
02:18Or I'll have to tell George about that bun you've got in the oven.
02:23I'll have to tell George about it.
02:53I'll have to tell George about it.
02:57Your mum would be ashamed of me for letting us drift apart like that.
03:06You deserved so much better than me, Claire.
03:16Listen.
03:18Listen.
03:20You are the kindest man that I have ever met.
03:22Do you know that?
03:24When I was a little girl, everyone else just treated me like I was a nuisance, but not you.
03:30No, you've always took the time to talk to me.
03:32And...
03:34Now, um...
03:36I've really got to go.
03:38Okay.
03:38I've got to check my diary, you know, because, you know, I've got social events.
03:50I've got to stay in our mate's house.
03:51I've got to stay in our mate's house.
03:52Yeah.
03:53I've got to call him in touch with me.
03:54Oh.
03:55I've got to stay in our mate's house.
03:56I've got to call him in touch with me.
03:57I've got to call him in touch with me.
03:58I've got to call him in touch with me.
03:59I've got to call him in touch with me.
04:00I've got to call him in touch with me.
04:01I've got to call him in touch with me.
04:05I'm a horse.
04:06You've got to stay in our mate's house.
04:12Why, wouldn't you?
04:14I'd call him in touch with me.
04:19There's such a load to stay tomorrow.
04:22We don't get to school anymore.
04:28So I'll have to.
04:30I'll see you later.
04:35He'll still be feeling guilty.
04:37He didn't do anything wrong.
04:38It was Howie.
04:39It's father and son.
04:43It can be complicated.
04:46Why does it feel like you're not just talking about Howie and Denzel?
04:53Who would have thought, right?
04:55Mr. Perfect, Dr. Truman, has a restraining order against him.
05:00Chelsea would have torn him into shreds if she was here.
05:05That's what she said to Denzel.
05:06He is Patrick's son, Kim.
05:09Until we know the Lord true, he deserves our support.
05:13And Kim, there is no shame in admitting that you miss Howie and...
05:30Lauren!
05:37You're well busted.
05:39Excuse me?
05:40Excuse me.
05:41Yeah, yeah.
05:42Mum dumps both kids on her babysitter and takes her day off work so she could, er, what?
05:47Hang around and do nothing all day?
05:49Well, first of all, Peter is their dad, so he's not exactly babysitting, is he?
05:53Is he?
05:53And second of all, I haven't had a little bit of time on my hand, you know?
05:58Self-care is a thing, even for months.
06:00Mm-hmm.
06:01So you're not sneaking off to buy my birthday present then?
06:05Yeah, right, as if.
06:08A-teeps ain't even really important anymore, you know?
06:11It's not really a big deal.
06:13It's more about 21st, even 16th.
06:15Just keep your nose out of my business, all right?
06:18I told you, you don't want anything, Lauren.
06:21Yeah, yeah.
06:23For real!
06:27Oh, sorry!
06:29Oh, listen, I have to catch up.
06:31It's been years.
06:33Let's do brunch sometime, yeah?
06:34You didn't seem too surprised to see me.
06:37Oh, don't let the pennies show up, that's what we do.
06:40Thing is, I've been having some trouble.
06:42Someone's been making threats, trying to mess with my life.
06:44And then out of the blue, yeah, you are.
06:48I'm like, I'd come all the way from Spain, for you.
06:52So you don't mind if I run and tell Phil I've seen you?
06:57Right, five minutes.
07:00I'm not here.
07:08All right?
07:09All right, mate.
07:10I think I might ask Claire to the filming.
07:17Oh, it's nice of you, by the way.
07:20But then, out of all that money...
07:22Money, what?
07:24What money?
07:25What are we talking about?
07:26From the, um...
07:28I, uh...
07:33I don't know if Claire had what she wanted or what she might be in trouble.
07:40Yeah, it can't have been Claire.
07:41Oh, yeah.
07:42You ain't seen her for years.
07:43This woman.
07:44What does she look like?
07:47Blonde.
07:48Um, middle-aged.
07:49Look, I've got things to do, right?
07:55So if you've got something to say, can you just say it?
07:57Someone's been stalking me.
07:59Well, it ain't me.
08:01You sure?
08:02You got fooled for trying to ruin my life.
08:04Yeah, but...
08:04And I feel bad for the way that I treated you in the past, but it wasn't personal.
08:09Look, I'm here to sort my own life out, right?
08:11Not mess with yours.
08:13You're lying.
08:15You're up to something.
08:17Do you know, it sounds like you can get nothing but hassles to treat them back.
08:21So why are you still here?
08:23I've asked about you a couple of times when Cat and Phil were playing happy families.
08:29I've got the impression that you and her weren't exactly in touch.
08:34I get it, right?
08:35Families, they're not all they're cracked up to be.
08:38Time was Phil would have done anything for me, but...
08:41Now, look, just tell me the truth.
08:45Why are you here?
08:45Why now?
08:46Because you showing up ain't no coincidence.
08:49Not everything is about you, sweetheart.
08:52Me and Ricky, all right?
08:54That's all I care about.
08:58We're not that different.
09:00You and me.
09:01We never were.
09:03Whoever's got it in for you, it ain't me.
09:06I've been knocking your door down.
09:26The boy said a beer.
09:27Whoever's got your knickers in a twist, I ain't got time for it.
09:30Yeah, well, you'd better make time.
09:31Some middle-aged blonde bird, nicked 20 grand out of my safe this morning.
09:35So what, you got some scant going, eh?
09:37You trying to get a teddy off the hook or something?
09:39If all it took was money, don't you think I'd have done it by now?
09:42It wasn't me.
09:43I mean, I can't be the only blonde in your life.
09:45I can't be the only blonde in your life.
10:15Just talk to me.
10:22Hi, you old slapper.
10:26Know your name, then?
10:28It's good to see you found your level, Cap.
10:30Sweeping up other people's faggings.
10:33I own a booster now, so don't bother coming in.
10:36You put a stamp on the place here?
10:38I'm going to the ladies.
10:39Am I going to find it stacked with a pile of leopard print bock roll?
10:42Last time I saw you, you ruined my marriage.
10:45Oh, come on, I did you a favour.
10:48And you know it.
10:49He wants to be married to a kind of bacon for the rest of their life.
10:53Anyway, there's a lot to be said for being single.
10:55It weren't your decision to make, and I ain't single.
10:57I'm married Alfie again.
10:59Well, I'll say one thing for you, Cap.
11:02You do like her Greatest Hits album.
11:03Please don't tell me you're brave enough to miss your whole family again.
11:09Well, Zoe.
11:11I've got a bigger fish to fry.
11:13Making someone off on the run.
11:15It's either one or the other with you.
11:17Oh, it's been lovely chatting, Cap.
11:18It really has.
11:19But I've got to go now.
11:21I've got an airport lounge and complimentary cocktails and my name on them.
11:25All right.
11:29So where'd you get all that then?
11:33Oi!
11:34Oi!
11:37She went that way.
11:39Wrong'un.
11:39Oh, hello, darling.
11:46Listen, I really need to see you, okay?
12:01Okay, come in.
12:09What do you think, George?
12:11Coach, I want to get me checking on you.
12:13We saw the paper.
12:15It's going to be tough on you, we know that.
12:17But it sounds like they're just trying to do the action.
12:22Minium, what are you talking about?
12:24Well, pleading guilty.
12:26What?
12:28No, no, you wouldn't do that.
12:29What are you talking about?
12:30Well, I just read it.
12:31I mean, as soon as you knew.
12:33But I'm sorry, I wouldn't have come round if I looked at my last chance.
12:36What do you mean?
12:39He's thinking, God, there's meant to be a trial.
12:43No!
12:46Listen.
12:47No!

12:58Yep, everyone's excited.

13:03Lee sent me a thumbs up emoji.
13:05That meant a lot.
13:06And Nancy called me big-headed.
13:08Because I name up this after myself twice.
13:11So.

16:46I saw a man get beaten to death once
16:48I was
16:49just a kid but
16:51turned out a man
16:53the victim
16:55well
16:57it was my way with dad

17:02sorry I didn't know
17:06of course
17:10listen
17:14my point is
17:20I grew up with a dad
17:24my name was capable of doing
17:27terrible things
17:28violent things
17:30and when you're their son
17:33it's hard not to think
17:35you're going to do the same
17:36but you have to learn
17:37to separate
17:38yourself
17:39from them
17:40my dad
17:41has done nothing
17:43but look out for me
17:44my whole life
17:45and now he's going to
17:48spend years inside
17:49for something
17:50he didn't even do
17:51but that one
17:53I mean
17:54of course you want to
17:55think the best of him
17:56but
17:56if he's playing in guilt
17:59he's only doing that
17:59because he thinks he has to
18:01to protect me

18:40I panicked
18:42my dad said
18:44that he'd saw it
18:45and I
18:46I let him
18:47there was no evidence
18:49I thought that he'd get off
18:51I watched
18:56what happened to my dad
18:59I was just a kid
19:00I just watched
19:06and even though I didn't know
19:08the whole story
19:08I still felt terrible guilt
19:11that's alright
19:13now you have to make
19:14a decision
19:14do you understand?
