00:30And Mama's got her keys and her wallet and her phone and oh a bit of lipstick for a bit of
00:51let's scare away the nasty chain cafe owner and save the oyster. Amber, I need to talk to you.
00:57You don't need to worry. It's a peaceful protest. I'll be safe. And yes, I can guarantee that because I'm one of the organisers.
01:05No, it's about Teddy. Oh, I've got you covered there. What's that? I've written down everything you need to know.
01:12It looks like a lot, but it's actually not that much. Amber. I mean, you do need to pick up nappies, sterilise the bottles and there's a wee stain on his onesie.
01:19If you could get that out, that'd be great. Can't. You'll be fine. I've got a really good feeling about today.
01:23Oh, I really think today's going to change everything. We're going to wipe that smug smile off Richard's face.
01:30Right, I'd better go. Me and Alice are going to do some flowering before it all kicks off.
01:34I can't watch Teddy.
01:36But you have to.
01:37Amber, I'm really sorry, but Bob's phoned in sick.
01:40He's properly caught up about finding Kim's video.
01:44But we've had this planned for ages.
01:45I know I'm letting you down, but...
01:47But the garage is stowed out of bookings. There's nothing I can do.
01:52There you go, wee man. An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
01:55I don't want it.
01:57Well, you can't have any sweeties if you're no feeling well.
01:59Only me!
02:01Dan, did you bring any biscuits?
02:03Oh, you've got a tummy bug.
02:05With these to you?
02:06Yeah.
02:07At least eat your apples first.
02:10Ma, I'm trying to get him to eat something that's done for a packet.
02:14It's just a wee treat.
02:15There's some bits in there for you, I know.
02:17Here's a swung by the garage.
02:19Angus says you're half sick.
02:21They're looking a wee bit poorly while they're at enough.
02:25So, is Beth doing me something?
02:27Well, he is. I'm fine. I just need a bit of space, so...
02:30So...
02:31You're no flu sick?
02:34Do you think it might be the stress of Chris's rampage, you know, catching up with you?
02:39Ma, I know why you're here.
02:42I'm just checking in on my sick veins.
02:45I've no watched Kim's video.
02:47How no?
02:48Yes, I've got nae intention of watching it, ever.
02:52Alright, so you can go.
02:54Fine.
02:55Gran, do you want to watch a Christmas movie?
02:59Gran's got places she needs to be, wee man.
03:01Where else would I rather be than here?
03:03Yeah, can we watch it, madam?
03:05Aye, of course, darling.
03:06You go and choose something.
03:07Hey, I've got to go.
03:20There's customers queuing at the door already.
03:22Oh, your mum and dad are like headless chickens these days.
03:25Are you heading out?
03:27Have you forgotten about the protest?
03:30Amber, you cannae take Teddy to a protest.
03:33Why not?
03:35Because he's a baby.
03:35Well, what else am I supposed to do?
03:39You're literally leaving me in the lurch again.
03:42Remember how you told me you wouldn't let me down?
03:43This isn't my fault.
03:45Bob's sick.
03:46Well, am I supposed to just drop everything?
03:48I can't just not go.
03:49I'm one of the organisers.
03:51But what if it gets rowdy?
03:53It won't.
03:55Peaceful protests go sideways all the time, Amber.
03:58What it takes is for one person to kick off.
04:01Imagine somebody threw tear gas
04:02and you've got Teddy right there in the middle of it.
04:04Tear gas?
04:05It's a community protest.
04:06You're being ridiculous.
04:07It doesn't matter how small the danger is.
04:09You cannae put Teddy at risk like that.
04:11The whole protest could fall apart if I'm not there.
04:13I mean, who's supposed to run it?
04:16Alice.
04:17Oh, come on.
04:17Alice is hardly going to rally up a crowd, is she?
04:19She's not really a leader.
04:21Well, she'll just need to be.
04:23Angus, this really matters to me.
04:26What, do you just expect me to abandon everyone?
04:29For Teddy, eh, yeah.
04:32I can't believe you're guilty to me
04:34when it's you who bailed on him.
04:39Oh, God.
04:43Oh, shh, shh, shh.
04:46For Teddy's safety, fine.
04:49I've got to go.
04:55Promise me you'll stay at home.
04:57I'll stay at home.
05:00Hello?
05:01I'm on my way.
05:02I know, I'm sorry.
05:03Did I miss a memo or something?
05:21No, no.
05:22I suppose it's just between me and Alex.
05:26Going away outside?
05:28Well, if it's a business meeting, I should be part of it.
05:30I'll know any matter.
05:30What's that supposed to mean?
05:36You'll need to tell him eventually.
05:38Tell me what?
05:42Well, you'll be signing the jail births out of the family
05:45and Alex is going to take a run in this place on his end.
05:48You've got to be joking.
05:49Do you see me laughing?
05:53Just need to thrash out a couple of details
05:55and the new business plan will be finalised.
05:57I see that.
06:00Alex just keeps proving that he's the right man for the job.
06:02No, you cannae make decisions like that without me.
06:04I should have a say.
06:06Decision's been made.
06:07I've given everything to this place.
06:09Aye.
06:10But now it's time for you to step aside.
06:13Close the door on your way, isn't it?
06:15There's a good wee boy.
06:16Where were we?
06:30Would you take a flyer, please?
06:32We're trying to save the oyster.
06:34The trick is not to ask if they want one.
06:38Help save the oyster.
06:40There's a link to the petition right there.
06:42I'm rubbish at this bit.
06:44Why isn't Amber here yet?
06:45But you didn't see her text.
06:50Oh.
06:52How are we going to do this without her?
06:54If we don't make enough noise today,
06:56then the whole thing's over.
06:58Karen, I can't let everybody down.
06:59Aye.
07:00Small but mighty.
07:01We've got this right.
07:04Drew.
07:05Could you take over flyering for a bit?
07:07Yeah, sure thing.
07:09Dean.
07:10Could you take some photos for the socials?
07:12I can try.
07:14Excellent.
07:15Delegation.
07:16Right.
07:17Now we need to get a wee bit more creative.
07:20Maggie.
07:21Would you join us?
07:22We could really use some community support.
07:24I would do, Karen,
07:25but Eddie's not even starting his Christmas shopping yet.
07:28There's plenty of time for that.
07:30Plenty of time.
07:30Exactly.
07:32But we need to save the oyster now.
07:34I mean, we've got to look out for our local businesses.
07:36All of them.
07:37It's all right.
07:37I used to love a protest back in the day.
07:40We used to cause carnage.
07:42I say we, I mean me.
07:44Maggie, Maggie, Maggie.
07:45Out, out, out.
07:46You sound like just the man for the job.
07:49Think you could get us a chant going?
07:51Christmas shopping can wait till tomorrow, can't he?
07:53Hey, what about this?
07:55Save the oyster!
07:55Save the oyster!
07:56Save the oyster!
07:57Save the oyster!
07:58Save the oyster!
08:00Save the oyster!
08:00Save the oyster!
08:02See, I mean, we might not have as many folk as we wanted,
08:06but we can still make an impact.
08:09Sorry about this, folks.
08:10Just ignore them.
08:11We need full measurements of the interiors.
08:13No, they're not going anywhere.
08:15Everyone link arms!
08:18Enough is enough.
08:19We need access to the site.
08:21Yeah, we're simply exercising our democratic rights.
08:24If you lot don't pack up and remove right away,
08:27we're going to call the police.
08:29Go ahead.
08:29But I think you'll find it's legal to protest in Scotland.
08:34You're just blocking these poor contractors from doing their job.
08:38That's a public disturbance.
08:39Not yet, but it will be.
08:42Save the oyster!
08:44Save the oyster!
08:45Save the oyster!
08:47Save the oyster!
08:48Save the...
08:49You're going to regret doing that.
08:59Can we talk?
09:10Alone?
09:11The deal's done.
09:12I just need you to sign.
09:13I am not signing over my business.
09:17Come on, Tyler.
09:18Don't make this more difficult than it needs to be.
09:20I've worked myself out of the bone keeping this place going.
09:22Aye.
09:23But Alex is the one that's turned there for a hand around.
09:25He's only been in charge for a few months.
09:27It's not hard, really.
09:29The jail parts was doing fine.
09:31Fine?
09:33See, that's your problem, Tyler.
09:35You think fine is good enough.
09:38And you thought Alex's ideas every step are away,
09:41and every single one of them's been a winner.
09:42Well, let me talk about my ideas!
09:44Enough talking!
09:45Sign the paperwork!
09:52Here.
09:59No.
10:04No, I'm not saying anything without reading it first.
10:15Please, don't I.
10:33I cannae face it.
10:34Bubba, you have to.
10:48I was ticking along fine before I found a USB.
10:52Why does it have to change everything?
10:54Because you're phoning in sick.
10:56You cannae deny it's strategy.
10:58Matt, I'm just about able to look at photos I came with at Breckendon.
11:05I cannae handle a video.
11:07I cannae even watch the ones on my phone.
11:09Hearing a voice, it kills me.
11:13Aye, but ignore it's not going to make it go away.
11:16If you feel rotten now, you're going to feel just as rotten tomorrow.
11:20It's the shock, that's all.
11:22No.
11:23No, this is going to keep hanging out of you, on and on, until you watch that video.
11:28It's my decision.
11:30Aye.
11:32But what about Kim?
11:35I feel for you, Bubba, I really do, but...
11:38But that video...
11:39Was Kim's last ever message to you?
11:41It's your decision, aye, but...
11:46Don't you at least...
11:47What to Kim to...
11:49Let her see her piece?
11:52What if I cannae handle it?
11:56I don't want Mackenzie to see me.
11:59I'll watch him.
12:01Look at you a wee bit of space.
12:03He needs his hat to be strong.
12:06Then be strong enough to hear what Kim has to say.
12:11She loved you, Bubba.
12:14Please.
12:17Let her tell you that one last time.
12:28Right, Daddy's little spy.
12:30The people united will never be defeated!
12:48The people united will never be defeated!
12:51Off the top of you!
12:53You know, you can't do this!
12:55I've got rights!
12:57Amber, thank goodness you're here.
12:58What's happened?
13:00Why has Karen been taken away?
13:01It was all Richard.
13:02They totally exaggerated everything.
13:04Okay, start from the beginning.
13:07Richard was trying to push past the picket line.
13:09Karen didn't even touch him, I swear.
13:11She lifted her hand.
13:12But Dave won the police and said it was us all.
13:14He can't do that.
13:16But he did.
13:17And now they're shutting down the protest.
13:19What on earth do you think you're doing?
13:21Amber, he's not worth it.
13:22How low can you stoop to sit there and spout your lies?
13:25They've denied me access to my own site.
13:28I'm the innocent victim.
13:31Amber, the police want to talk to you as one of the organisers.
13:36Ooh.
13:37Not very responsible organising.
13:42It's a very pathetic resorting to violence, do you think?
13:45This was a peaceful protest and you know it.
13:48Assaulting an upstanding member of the community.
13:51That's what you call peaceful.
13:52Assault?
13:54I'll show you what assault really looks like.
14:07You'll pay for this.
14:08I have to talk to you as much as possible.
14:11I'll show you what assault really looks like.
14:27Oh my God.
14:28Thanks.
14:28I'm a good person.
14:34Hi, Bob.
14:44If you're watching this, then, um, I'm not here anymore.
14:50Right now, I'm still waiting on a heart.
14:53So, I've been thinking about what'll happen if I'm not here.
14:57And there's a few things I want you to do for me.
15:00Call them my last wishes.
15:03I don't want you to be sad.
15:05I want you to remember all that we had and how much I loved you.
15:09Enjoy your life.
15:11And all that's still ahead of you.
15:13Please, Bob, for me.
15:16Go and see the places in the world that you're always talking about,
15:19but too busy with the garage to visit.
15:22See them, and I'll be right there with you.
15:25I'll always be with you.
15:27Looking over you and the kids.
15:30Casey's gonna grow up to be a kind, amazing young man.
15:33And the reason I know that is because he has the best dad in the world to show him how.
15:39And I want you to find love again.
15:42A true love, like we had.
15:44Not straight away.
15:46You can miss me a wee bit.
15:47But you will need to move on.
15:51Make someone else as happy as you made me.
15:53You've still got a life.
15:55And I don't want you not to live it just because I'm not with you.
15:57I'll always be with you.
16:00In your heart.
16:02I've loved every minute of us being together.
16:06Couldn't have wished for a better partner.
16:09And I hope our life together goes on for years, and I can delete this.
16:14But if not, and you're watching,
16:17then please promise me you'll respect my wishes.
16:20Please, Bob, see it for me in a minute.
16:34I love you, Bob.
16:35Love you, Kim.
17:05Sorry, Talyn.
17:14I didn't mean to...
17:16You were listening?
17:21I had to ask you to move on.
17:24It was beautiful.
17:27Aye.
17:29Beautiful.
17:32She didn't mean it.
17:34Those are the worst wishes.
17:37It doesn't mean they're true.
17:41I need some air.
17:43Baba.
17:53Up the toffees.
17:54Up the toffees.
17:56See you again, mate?
17:58Aye.
18:00Eddie.
18:01Erm, I'll see you upstairs.
18:06I need to talk to you about my dad.
18:07You got something there, have you lad?
18:09Eddie, you know I didn't mean what I said at the jail boards.
18:12Oh, you would never hurt my mum, of course I do.
18:14I was just lashing out, you know that?
18:16Yeah, well, you picked the wrong punch bag.
18:18Told you and I'm done.
18:19Eddie, please, I need your help.
18:20And I need you to hear me when I say
18:22I don't want to be involved in any more Fruke's dramas.
18:25Have you got that?
18:31That one's on me.
18:37Appreciate it.
18:39Looks like you might need a lawyer.
18:43It was only that simple.
18:44Look, I'm not really Mr. Legal Guy,
18:46but I'm a pretty good listener.
18:48You wouldn't understand.
18:50I might.
18:56Alright.
19:01The nasty sign away my business.
19:05Hmm.
19:06For a good deal?
19:08Pretty much got me backed into a corner.
19:10It's your business, right?
19:12So who's holding the cards?
19:15It's a bit of a family situation.
19:21I was running this venture with my cousin once.
19:25And it was all fair and even to begin with
19:27until he started demanding more.
19:30More money.
19:31More holidays.
19:32More respect.
19:35And I kept giving in to him, right?
19:37Because he's my cousin.
19:39Blood.
19:40But there's no end to more.
19:45So what did you do?
19:47Well, I got a new partner and sold the business out from under him.
19:50It's brutal.
19:52See, the thing is,
19:54he was so busy with his demands
19:57that he took his eye off the ball.
20:00But if you're paying attention,
20:02there's always a way of getting the upper hand.
20:04Nah.
20:08I don't think that's true, mate.
20:10If they're looking in one direction,
20:12you come at them from the other side.
20:17Business is business, bud.
20:19You just gotta fight dirty sometimes.
20:21Mackenzie all right?
20:22Aye.
20:23Finishing that film in his room.
20:25Just he's feeling loads better.
20:27I shouldn't have run off like that and left jail.
20:31No.
20:33I'd be not without an explanation.
20:35I went to Kim's bench.
20:37I just...
20:52Needed a minute to think.
20:54Are you gonna tell me why you think she's not being truthful?
20:57Nah.
20:59It's her last wishes.
21:01She's not gonna sit there and say,
21:03don't move on.
21:04You're the love of my life,
21:05so don't find another one.
21:07See, if that was true,
21:08I don't think she'd have said it at all.
21:09She's saying what she thinks I want to hear.
21:12I think you're underestimating her.
21:14When did she think I'd find that video, eh?
21:17Six months?
21:18A year?
21:19Two?
21:20She couldn't have known.
21:21What's that got to do waiting?
21:22Because it's far too early for me
21:24to be thinking about moving on.
21:27But, but,
21:28you meeting somebody else
21:29doesn't mean
21:30you're forgetting about Kim.
21:33She'll always be part of your life,
21:35but she doesn't have to be the only part.
21:40There's not a rule book for the kind of things.
21:42It's just...
21:44you move forward
21:46when you're ready.
21:50That's not what you said before.
21:52What do you mean?
21:54Ma, I know what you really think.
21:56I heard what you said to Kelly Marie.
21:58I don't know what you're talking about.
21:59At the one-stop shop,
22:00the pair of you were gabbing up the back
22:01and you said,
22:02I'm no ready to move on.
22:04So you can't exactly claim
22:05that you think any different now, can you?
22:14Oh.
22:16Eh, hello?
22:17You cannae just barge into people's living rooms?
22:20Maggie left a key for cleaning tomorrow.
22:21She just told me to grab it.
22:23Oh, hello, Caitlin. How are you?
22:24Oh, I'm fine, Dean. Thanks very much.
22:26Sorry.
22:28Did you hear about the protest?
22:29Drew'd said it all kicked off.
22:30Aye, er, I was there.
22:32Oh, at least he tried, eh?
22:34I'm that proud of Drew
22:35going back to the community
22:36with all this Santa dash stuff and all that.
22:38He's probably turned his life around, ain't he?
22:40What's up with you?
22:41Nothing.
22:42Well, try telling that dear face.
22:43Right, you sit down.
22:45Come on.
22:46and all that. He's probably turned his life around, hasn't he?
22:50What's up with you?
22:52Nothing.
22:54Well, try telling that to your face.
22:57Right, you sit down.
23:00Come on.
23:06What's wrong?
23:08It's just that...
23:10Drew's got his life sorted.
23:13And I feel...
23:15totally lost.
23:17It's no competition.
23:19I just...
23:22I really want to do something good with my life.
23:26Do you not think you've been a wee bit too serious here?
23:29This is my future we're talking about.
23:31Aye, but you're 19.
23:33You know what I was doing when I was 19?
23:35Well, I'd tell you, but I cannae remember.
23:38Too many tequila shots.
23:41Oh, Dean, you'll figure out what you want to do soon.
23:45And how you see when you figure it out?
23:47What you come back and tell me?
23:48Because I'm in my 40s and I still don't have a clue.
23:53Thanks, Caitlin.
23:57Baba, please let me explain.
24:00There's nae point. I heard every word.
24:02See, I thought Kelly Marie was forcing you to move on before you were ready.
24:07I was just trying to buy you a wee bit of space.
24:10But you don't think I'm ready?
24:12I think only you know that.
24:17Don't take what I say to heart, please.
24:19Bit late for that.
24:25I met somebody.
24:28Somebody that...
24:30I actually really liked.
24:34It felt like we had a proper wee connection.
24:37But then I heard what you said and...
24:40Oh, Baba, I'm so sorry.
24:42You're my big gub.
24:44See, I thought I was helping you.
24:47Doesnae matter now anyway.
24:48I've probably missed a chance.
24:51And if you havenae...
24:54Baba, you know better than anybody that life is too short.
24:57If you've got a chance of happiness...
25:02You take it.
25:06And if you're not gonna listen to me...
25:10Listen to Kim.
25:21Is he okay?
25:22He's fine.
25:26Do you have any idea how terrified I was when I saw the police?
25:30I thought something terrible had happened.
25:32I'm sorry.
25:34What were you thinking?
25:35I wasn't.
25:37Look, I know it's stupid, but thankfully I've only been given a fight.
25:40And an assault charge.
25:41Yeah, that too.
25:43Turns out your mama's a bit of a rebel.
25:46You promised me you wouldn't take Teddy to the protest.
25:49I didn't.
25:50Not really.
25:51I just saw what was happening and popped over.
25:53That's still going.
25:55You lied to me.
25:57Angus.
25:58Look, it's fine, okay?
26:00I'm okay.
26:01Teddy's okay.
26:02None of this is okay.
26:03You put Teddy in danger.
26:05I don't even want to talk about right now.
26:07Angus, come on.
26:08Don't.
26:10I'm here to take you home and that's it.
26:11Let's go.
26:18Hello, it's me.
26:34Listen, I'm going to need to call in that favour that's owed.
26:37I'm going to need another buy.
26:40I'll talk to you after.
26:48The Santa Dash fundraiser is a go!
26:49I can't believe you managed to pull all this off.
26:50Many mocktails.
26:51The Santa Dash fundraiser is a go!
27:14I can't believe you managed to pull all this off
27:16Merry mocktails, so you can join in, have a wee bit of fun
27:19I'm not interested in the cocktails
27:21When I met you earlier on, I was kinda on my way to ask Alice
27:26Oh Bob, this is amazing
27:27I don't even know if she'll say hi
27:29Of course you will, you're a wee hunk
27:31Dad can't cut you out like that
27:33I just don't think there's anything you or me can do to stop them
27:35Just you leave it with me
27:49I was just a kid
27:51Just a kid
27:53Just a kid
27:55I lived for a cold
27:57I used the same thing
27:59I didn't know if she was a ghost
28:01You made me feel like you were ready
28:03I'm not interested in her
28:05Then I thought that she'll know if she got you
28:07I think she's weak
28:08I saw that she got me
28:09But she was so honest
28:10I thought that she was amazing
