00:01Cindy, do not flip out all this.
00:03There's kids here, yeah? What are you doing here?
00:05I'm here for Lauren and Jimmy, huh?
00:07No, you're not. You are not here for us, Dad.
00:09You are here to make this day all about you, just like you did at our wedding day.
00:12Cindy, can I just have a word with you?
00:14What are you doing? You're gonna make it worse.
00:16I ain't gonna make it worse.
00:18Look, I know this is difficult, all right?
00:20I know there's probably loads you want to say,
00:22but can we just start off by saying hello to each other?
00:25It's nice to meet you, Cindy, all right? In the flesh.
00:27If you don't leave, I will crack your head open like a bald egg!
00:31Max, no-one wants you here.
00:33It's not going too well, Dad.
00:35Why am I not allowed to be a part of it?
00:37It's my family, do you know what I mean? I've been missed out on so much over the years.
00:40I always forced that, then.
00:41Yeah, partly mine, all right, I take responsibility for that,
00:43but sometimes I miss that because people I trusted kept things from me,
00:47and sometimes I miss that because I was banged up in jail for something I've never done.
00:51So what, you're a good guy now, are you?
00:54Like Jesus or Santa Claus?
00:58Cindy, all right, whatever's between us ain't important, yeah?
01:00We're here for our kids and our grandkids.
01:02So can we please just, you know what I mean?
01:05Can we just bite down on it?
01:08I seem to remember you saying something like that before.
01:11You guys are looking at each other really intensely.
01:18Is there something you want to tell us?
01:21Can someone just please get rid of him? I'm shaking here.
01:25Yeah, well, I ain't leaving Cindy, all right?
01:27Ian, the killer of our side is just standing there.
01:30I never killed Stephen, all right? That was just an accident.
01:32He was my first home. The old thing is all messed up.
01:34If it wasn't for you, I'd be here today.
01:36Can you just stop saying that? Can we just talk in private?
01:38You know, I am actually sick and tired of getting the finger pointed at me.
01:49Especially by hypocrites.
01:51Look at her, standing there like the Virgin Mary.
01:53You're lashing out Cindy, all right? For one reason.
01:56One reason only, yeah? Christmas.
01:59Well, but perhaps we should, um, we should get on, eh?
02:02Heavenly Father...
02:03Oh, God...
02:05Christmas for...
02:06What do you mean, Christmas?
02:10Uh...
02:11Yeah, I think Santa might have put some ginger nuts in Cindy's stocking.
02:16No, you didn't.
02:19We...
02:20You two slept together.
02:22I'll give her.
02:27Richie said it's caught within the next few days for a bowel hearing.
02:29But she didn't do it.
02:30What about head wounds?
02:31It's not enough.
02:32Obviously thinks she's lying.
02:34Trying to stick the next one on someone else.
02:36Because it was someone else!
02:37We know that.
02:38But she's not mentioning Chrissie, which makes her look more and more guilty.
02:43So what do we do now?
02:45Well, it's Chrissie, innit?
02:46If we can't find her and get her to confess, then Zoe's had it.
02:49She needs us, Jasmine.
02:52She needs to be with all of us.
02:56Please, if there's anything you know that can help us find Chrissie...
02:59It will happen to protecting me.
03:00We will.
03:01Don't you want to use me to freeze up?
03:03No, no, no, no, Jasmine, listen.
03:05All this has got out of hand drive, but my head is in a mess.
03:07Just...
03:08Just come home with me.
03:09We'll sit down and we'll sort everything out.
03:10Home!
03:11That is not home!
03:12Nowhere is home!
03:13Do you think if I'd have known I'd have had anything to do with him?
03:20He is the one in the wrong.
03:22He knew exactly who I was.
03:24No, I didn't.
03:25Yes, you did.
03:26He just didn't say your name acting like it was some kind of game.
03:29I sound like you, yeah.
03:30What are you talking about?
03:31I didn't have a clue who she was.
03:32We were in the outfit.
03:33My name is above the door!
03:35What do you think?
03:36I look at the door and every booze I'll go into.
03:38You're just a barmaid, Cindy.
03:40Why are you just a lonely barmaid who wanted a bit of Christmas TLC?
03:43Us?
03:44I ain't being funny.
03:45You pretty much jumped on me.
03:46Shut your mouth.
03:48I have had it with you, turning every special day into a nightmare.
03:53You're a mess.
03:54When are you going to get it in your head that no one here wants you?
03:57Peter!
03:58Stop being your ass!
04:00You're a very good ass!
04:01Yeah.
04:07Yeah, all right, all right.
04:10Look at that little rat grope there.
04:13Sucker punching me.
04:14Typical Bill move, that is.
04:15Just calm down, will ya?
04:22You know, we've been through hell for the last God knows how long.
04:25And today was meant to be a day where we could just try and be a proper, normal family.
04:29But no, we've got to put up with this.
04:31A slanging match.
04:32A punch up.
04:33Your disgusting sex life.
04:34No, I just wanted to share a memory of you all, yeah?
04:36Is that too much to ask?
04:38Yeah, we've done that, all right.
04:43Oi.
04:44You gave yourself.
04:47Right, Louie.
04:49Me and your dad only mucking about, innit?
04:51Just go.
04:52Go away!
04:54Hey!
05:15Oh, I missed you, man.
05:17Aw, I miss you too.
05:20Are you feeling better?
05:22Erm...
05:24Yeah, physically, I guess.
05:28You seeing that Ravi's back?
05:30Yes.
05:32Well, did it make your blood boil, mate?
05:34How he's got the front to walk around like nothing happened?
05:37Harry, holding a grudge won't help.
05:40Forget about Ravi.
05:42Focus on the good people.
05:43Well, apart from you, mate, all the good people are gone.
05:46You know, Dad, Barney, G.
05:49Barney's still around.
05:50Yeah, but he don't want anything to do with us anymore.
05:52You know?
05:53I just wish I could go back in time.
05:56Get everyone back in the house and have it like it was.
05:59I know Teddy isn't able to come back.
06:02But what about Barney?
06:03I don't know, he's been with Zac for so long now.
06:09Tell you what, though, seeing his soppy face over breakfast
06:11would really help me right now.
06:14Come on, eat up.
06:15Come on.
06:38Move!
06:39Move!
07:06Reckon you should have been christened today, biggest baby in town.
07:08baby in town.
07:10Get out of yourself, Oscar.
07:30You're back early. How'd it go?
07:32Oh, let's just say the vicar is now questioning his faith.
07:38Go to the Beatles.
07:48Beg Laurence to forgive you.
07:50Start now, she might forgive you sometime in the century.
07:57That's it.
07:58Keep making those healthy life choices.
08:05All my favourite people today.
08:07Oscar, wait.
08:08I'm not having a great afternoon, to be honest, Jazz.
08:10The last thing I need is more mind games off you.
08:12I know. Just please stop.
08:15I want to tell you something.
08:19I want to tell you the truth.
08:21About me.
08:22It's a process, though.
08:24Listen, Rich is working on it.
08:26You'll be out soon, I promise you.
08:29What have you got there?
08:31Condolence messages from the pub.
08:35What are you doing with them?
08:37Reading them.
08:39Seeing who's said something nice and who hasn't.
08:41Don't worry.
08:42I'll take them back.
08:44Jasmine?
08:45Yeah, she's, um, gone out for a walk with Jean.
08:49Getting on like house on fire.
08:52All right, yeah, I'll speak to you soon.
08:54Listen, stay calm.
08:55We love you.
08:56Hey.
08:57I've just seen, er, Jasmine with Oscar.
09:01She hasn't legged it.
09:02Thank God for that.
09:03Listen, you spoke to Sharon about you know who.
09:06Are you 100% sure that Zoe didn't do it?
09:10Because the alarm system didn't go off.
09:12I know.
09:13She didn't get a power cut, remember?
09:14Oh, dear.
09:15And also, you know, I've explained to you about the head wounds overnight.
09:18Hmm.
09:20I'm just going through it in my own mind.
09:23Because it's horrible to think that a floor that I clean regularly is soaked in a man's blood.
09:29Ah, don't worry. I'm on it.
09:41I know she's been through a lot, but I ain't having that.
09:44I mean, I get her point.
09:45You know, how do we know for sure it won't zone?
09:47Listen here, you!
09:50Zoe's gone through hell looking for her kids, and the minute Jasmine turns up, she's taken away.
09:54Do you know what that feels like?
09:55Because I do.
09:57God knows we've come through for you.
09:58Why don't you try doing the same for someone else for a change, eh?
10:06I was in the hospital because of you.
10:08And her.
10:10The place was burning. Zoe was inside.
10:12You locked the door on her, Jasmine.
10:14I don't remember doing it.
10:15Oh, come on, stop.
10:16No, seriously.
10:17I was disassociated.
10:18I do not remember, okay?
10:19I'm sorry.
10:20I'm so sorry.
10:25So, Cindy was your way in with the Slayers.
10:29What about me?
10:30Was I a way into, you know, hook up the hottest guy in town for a cover?
10:34No, no.
10:35Oscar, I came so close to telling you.
10:37You are the one thing that has felt real and right in all of this.
10:43Oscar, I mean that.
10:44I really mean that.
10:51Is that everything?
10:52What?
10:53Would you want more?
10:54No.
10:55No.
10:56Not really.
10:59That's it.
11:02I was messed up, okay?
11:04I was just reacting.
11:05And I know, I know that is no excuse.
11:07The things that I did, they were awful.
11:08And I am never going to forgive myself for that.
11:18Brain.
11:19It's going to take a minute for me to get my head around this jazz.
11:24I understand.
11:25I mean, I've had everyone, including you.
11:32I can't even ask for anything.
11:35Have you been to see Patrick?
11:36He's not going to want to see me.
11:39You're his granddaughter.
11:41Yeah, he's just lost everything.
11:44Knowing you exist might help.
11:49Same again, please.
11:52I'm Max, by the way.
11:55Nicola Mitchell.
11:58All the world needs another Mitchell.
12:01Where did you come in a pecking order?
12:04Do you see any pecks on me?
12:06I'm Queen of the Coop, darling.
12:09Salute.
12:11Simple life.
12:13Oh, my life is far from simple.
12:16Yeah.
12:19You know, everyone likes to think they're complex, but they ain't.
12:23I worked out at a young age that people were just animals.
12:27Base.
12:31I can see in the people's shadows.
12:34Yeah, I know what they really want.
12:37Any happier?
12:39Sitting here, drinking on your tod?
12:40I'm not on my own, am I?
12:43Because you're here.
12:46Alright.
12:48What do you see in my shadows, Max?
12:57I see an abyss.
12:59I see chaos.
13:04Danger.
13:09Carnage.
13:12What about the bad stuff?
13:13Here you are.
13:25I heard you wreck the christening.
13:27We told you that, golden boy.
13:29Beat up Peter, you slagged off Cindy.
13:32And your own daughter.
13:34Yeah, yeah.
13:35Sounds like you got the old story.
13:37Well, which part isn't true?
13:39My part, Linda.
13:41Me, the way I feel.
13:45It's like my family, you know.
13:46People are supposed to love me the most.
13:49They've come for me the whole time.
13:51Oh, so you're blameless then?
13:53No, I ain't saying that.
13:55They just twist things up and make me the bad guy.
13:58I got lost AJ.
14:02Overnight.
14:03That's why she's with Tanya now.
14:06She's wandered off.
14:08She's stuck in a shed.
14:09Screaming her name.
14:12Like the worst ten hours of my life.
14:14I thought she was dead.
14:16That's awful.
14:17Yeah, thank you, it was.
14:21How did it happen?
14:24Silly.
14:27Neighbour needed a hand.
14:28AJ was asleep.
14:29I left her tablet on live, you know.
14:31Just to keep an eye on her.
14:33Must have looked away for like two minutes.
14:35I got back, she was gone.
14:38This neighbour.
14:41Was it a woman?
14:46Yeah, you're just like the rest of them.
14:48Assuming the worst.
14:51Yeah, it was a woman.
14:54So what?
14:55This happens to other people, Linda.
14:56They get sympathy.
14:57It happens to me.
14:58I just get snide comments.
14:59I'm trying to help you.
15:00Yeah, yeah.
