07:36When Nigel gets confused, as he often does,
07:38the best thing is just to play along with it.
07:41Don't try and correct him or anything.
07:42Path of least resistance.
07:43Yeah, I will.
07:44Hi, her.
07:45Hi, her.

09:21You look so beautiful today.
09:24Aw.
09:25I love you, Julie.
09:28Sorry, mate, I don't want to embarrass you.
09:30It's just, um, it's our anniversary.
09:32Well, er, wedding.
09:34No, first date.
09:35No, it's exactly a year since we first met.
09:42Maybe we should do something tonight.
09:44Go out, you know, er, do something special.
09:47It's New Year's Eve, huh?
09:48Maybe, um, a meal?
09:51You know, just the two of us.
09:54That would be lovely.
09:55Oh.
09:58Oh.
09:59I should have known.
10:01Sorry, I just...
10:02Don't have a go here, Lauren, all right?
10:03I only asked him to get you here, cos I knew you wouldn't come for me.
10:06Yeah, two, right.
10:06Can we just not sit down and talk, please, for ten minutes?
10:10Well, when do we get a chance to spend time together, just the three of us?
10:16Ten minutes.
10:16Clock's ticking.
10:22I just want to apologise, that's all.
10:29To both of you, all right?
10:30I've been thinking about my behaviour, all right?
10:32How messed up it is.
10:34How messed up I am.
10:36I'll keep repeating the same toxic patterns I have done for years.
10:39Just self-destructive, innit?
10:43Pointless.
10:46I'm sorry I hurt you, all right?
10:48But I just hurt everyone, don't I?
10:49Cos I've got a problem.
10:52I want to sort it out, all right?
10:57I've been trying to figure out a way to stop, cos I really do want to stop.
11:03I'm determined.
11:03To do what?
11:10It's a private conversation.
11:13You want to know what he's been doing the past couple of days to you?
11:16Elaine, please, do me a favour.
11:17Getting smashed and trying to bed my daughter.
11:20Hands all over her.
11:21You're disgusting.
11:22She feels defiled.
11:24If you don't believe me, ask her.
11:30You know, they weren't even true.
11:32You know, for a second, I...
11:33I actually...
11:34I actually started to believe you.
11:39But when it comes to a quick bunk-up, we are always going to be second best.
11:42No, that's not fair, all right?
11:43You and your brother are the most important thing in the world to me, Lauren.
11:46Yeah, keep telling yourself that.
11:51My kids come first, all right?
11:52Always have, always will.
11:55Do you think Abby or Bradley would agree with that?
11:58I don't.
12:03Oscar, Oscar.
12:04Oscar, Oscar.
12:17Thank you, Chase.
12:19Their family, my buddy.
12:201 seu.
12:21Always have...
12:22You're!
12:23Are you ready?
12:24No.
12:24It'sinerary.
12:25Of course, it's in the future of Weill.
12:26That looks a bit bad.
12:27I just did a few in the future of Weill.
12:29Yeah, it's in the future of Weill.
12:30Is it a bit too mainstreamed?
12:31Which means, there are this 73 around?
12:33A giant wichtige crook on the way?
12:35The camera's in the future of Weill.
12:37I think blue до if we go?
12:38I definitely fez no、 that one, I don't know.
12:41I don't know if that.
12:42The other total is a small city.
12:43neue, a preciso-
12:45It's in the future.
12:45No.
13:10Drinking alone?
13:12Not a good sign.
13:15Do you want to join me?
13:16I don't.
13:17I think that Jack would like that very much to you.
13:20No, I guess not.
13:31Max, got a minute?
13:32No.
13:33Come on, don't be like that.
13:34I'm not your enemy, okay?
13:35I had my cup of tea earlier.
13:37No, that was down to me mum.
13:39I know what it's like to be hated by everyone and feel like you're the outsider.
13:42Not you, Ian, all right?
13:43All right?
13:44No, you're not, all right?
13:45But I understand, all right?
13:46I understand how it feels sometimes to feel like you're alone, but especially this time
13:51of year.
13:52What do you want?
13:53Nothing.
13:54No, go on.
13:55Yeah, I know you.
13:56Just spit it out, will you?
13:57Before I give you a slap.
13:58I've got a proposal.
13:59All right, a business proposal.
14:00Something that's mutually beneficial.
14:01Not insurance.
14:02All right, Max, I've got you a...
14:03Let's call it a little present, yeah?
14:04What's this for?
14:05To help you out.
14:06To help you out.
14:07Help you on your way.
14:08business pros or something that's mutually beneficial.
14:10I'm not into it, mate.
14:11All right, Max, I've got you, uh, let's call it a little present, yeah?
14:31What's this for?
14:33Help you out.
14:35Help your new way.
14:38Look, it seems to me like there's nothing left for you around here anymore.
14:44All right, so why don't you do yourself and everyone else a favour and just disappear?
14:53I'll tell you what, think of that as travel, you all right?
14:58Just help me on your way.
15:01What do you think on that Jeep?
15:04Max, there is nothing left for you here. Don't you see that?
15:09Your kids hate you. Your brother hates you. Nobody, nobody wants you here anymore.
15:16All right, do yourself a favour. Just go.
15:22What did you think you were gonna do? Eh? What, attack him? Kill him? How's that gonna help?
15:37I can't let Ravi strut around like nothing happened.
15:41Why does he get away with it?
15:44Why does he get away with it?
15:46My dad's in prison.
15:47Barney's gone.
15:48He's destroyed our whole family.
15:50I need to do something.
15:51I need to pay him back.
15:53Yeah, but you kill him and then what?
15:55What, everything's sorted?
15:56What, you're happy again, are ya?
15:57I don't know. I don't know.
15:59But if I don't, I know what's gonna happen.
16:02It's gonna keep playing with my head and I'll start using again.
16:05I don't want to, but I'll relapse.
16:07I know I will.
16:08You're okay, you're okay.
16:09I'm telling him, I'm here for you.
16:11No.
16:14I can't let him get away with this.
16:19I can't.
16:20No, no.
16:21No, no.
16:23And neither can I.
16:24What does that mean?
16:25Look, we are gonna do this together, Harry.
16:27Yeah, but we have gotta play this right.
16:30We've gotta take our time.
16:31It has to be planned carefully so that it doesn't come back on us.
16:37I promise you, darling.
16:39Ravi Galati is gonna pay.
16:42Service.
16:43Yeah, I'm coming.
16:44Service.

16:58Yeah.
16:59I'm very excited.
17:01On the AS, yeah?
17:02Aw.
17:03Aw, thanks.
17:06Well then, what are we doing later?
17:08Um...
17:09Well, you know, it's New Year's Eve.
17:11Is it?
17:12Yeah.
17:13Uh, we could go to a party.
17:15Yeah, only if there's dancing.
17:18I'm a really good dancer.
17:20And I love dancing, so...
17:22Let's do it.
17:23I love this one.
17:24Turn it up, Sharon!
17:25Oh!
17:26Oh, here they did you do.
17:27Oh!
17:28Oh!
17:29Oh!
17:30Are you okay?
17:31I
17:53What is this?
17:55Well, I thought we'd have another go at christening DIY
17:58It seemed like a good idea, but it's essentially just a bowl of water and a couple of candles, so it's not quite the same, but
18:05It is so sweet
18:08Louie's actually just gone bed so much to wait till the morning, but I love this idea though. Yeah
18:19I'm so lucky to have a husband like you
18:22You're so kind and considerate
18:25You've just got the biggest heart in the world
18:28I
18:30You just
18:32You deserve the best
18:34Go on
18:36You know that don't you?
18:38Do I?
18:39Yes
18:40You deserve better than him
18:42A dad like him, you know
18:44Well, I got you now
18:46Yeah
18:48You and my boys
18:50I don't need him in my life
18:52I actually just need to get him out of my head
18:54Why don't we go out?
18:56You know
18:58Blow off some steam
19:00See the new year in style
19:02What about our kids?
19:04I
19:06Don't
19:08I've told Gran and she could babysit
19:10Come on, it'll just be you and me
19:12We'll just, we'll put the past behind us
19:14No Max
19:16Just
19:18Just us two
19:20Look into the future
19:22Together
19:24Yeah
19:26Yeah
19:28What are you doing?
19:30I don't know
19:31What's it look like?
19:32This ain't because of the other night
19:34Oh no no, I'm not having you blaming me, alright?
19:36You run out on your kids, that's on you
19:50I ain't blaming you
19:52For the record, alright? I'm sorry about what happened
19:54I was drunk, yeah? I was out of order
19:57Yeah, you were
19:58Neil, I feel bad
20:00You're right to knock me back
20:02You're a lovely, nice person, yeah? But you should just
20:06Stay as far away from me as possible
20:08What do you think?
20:10I paid for the room
20:12Look, you don't have to go right now
20:14Yeah, of course I do
20:16Cause no one wants me here, do they?
20:18Everyone hates my guts
20:20So what's the point in staying?
20:22Yourself?
20:23Nah
20:24Nah, it wouldn't work
20:26I spent years, years trying to change, you know
20:28Something always goes wrong
20:32It's this place, you know
20:34Got too much history here, too many bad memories
20:38I'll stay, I'm just gonna hurt people
20:42It's best for everyone if I just go
20:44Just run away?
