TVTranscript
00:00Having the same dream, I'm on a ship, my real mum and Cam are with me, but a huge wave is coming towards us, so I grab the anchor and throw it over the side to keep us all safe, but it doesn't work, her mum and Cam just disappear and I'm all alone, and the wave keeps coming and...
00:30So, that's the toy cupboard sorted, the laundry's clean, and now you can see bits of the actual living room floor.
00:42Above and beyond the car.
00:44Tidy house, tidy mines.
00:46Are you feeling all right? Why don't you go home?
00:51Um, oh, I'll just do the kitchen first.
00:53So, she's been in New York how long now?
00:56Three weeks, one more to go.
00:57Oh, wow, a whole month with the flat to yourself.
01:00It's been great, honestly, Saf, you're going to love living on your own, having such a good time.
01:05Really?
01:06Yeah, parties every night.
01:09And why are you here, Tracy?
01:11Hmm?
01:11Why are you here cleaning at eight o'clock at night if you're having such a good time, I mean?
01:16Oh, no reason, I just wanted to get it done.
01:20Right.
01:20You're right, something's definitely up with a beaker.
01:33Make yourself at home?
01:35I always do.
01:36What are you doing?
01:37Nothing.
01:38How come one person have so much glitz?
01:41Well, it makes me happy.
01:43Why? It's just stuff.
01:44Well, no, each one has a memory.
01:47What?
01:49Um, that one I think I bought when Meaty and Lily and Tracy went into town.
01:54Big deal.
01:54And then when Tracy made tea laugh, a whole load of milkshake just shot out her note.
01:59Okay, um, this?
02:01That was a sorry from my mum one night when she didn't come home.
02:05Oh.
02:05What about this one?
02:09Um, nothing really.
02:11I just like it.
02:12Mike.
02:13Yes?
02:14Saf agrees that something's not right about Tracy.
02:17Really?
02:18Because let's face it, Tracy isn't exactly shy about telling everybody when there's something
02:22she's not happy about.
02:23I know, I know, but that's what's odd.
02:25I mean, she's staying late, everything's getting cleaned.
02:29Well, don't knock it.
02:30At least this place will be tidy.
02:32But maybe there's something that she doesn't want us to know about.
02:36Hello, Amtree House.
02:39Lily's social worker.
02:42You can borrow it if you like.
02:44No, it's too pretty for me.
02:45What do you mean, too pretty?
02:47You are pretty.
02:48No, I'm not.
02:49I'm ugly.
02:50Rubbish.
02:51Now, you can borrow it tomorrow and then it'll have a memory.
02:53What memory?
02:55Um, the day I realised that me and Electra could be friends.
02:58Hang on a sec while I puke everywhere.
03:00Fine then, give it back.
03:01I don't even care.
03:01No.
03:02Sorry, it's just...
03:04I've never had anything nice before, so...
03:06Honestly, Electra, you're just so...
03:10So what?
03:12Just so.
03:12Oh, look, Electra's your boyfriend.
03:19Uh-huh.
03:21You have such a big room.
03:23Don't you think it's a bit too big, though?
03:25Okay, how can a room be too big?
03:27I don't really like sleeping in here on my own.
03:30I can move in.
03:31Okay, I was joking.
03:33Why would I want to live with a squirt?
03:35Electra.
03:36Thanks.
03:37How's meeting?
03:39Come on.
03:40This isn't gonna take long.
03:42Tracy, what are you doing here?
03:44It's ten past eight.
03:45Why is it with everyone?
03:46Going in a minute.
03:47Right, Lily's social worker's called up, yeah?
03:50Is she all right?
03:50Mm-hmm, just let me finish.
03:52She's gonna be coming here for respite care,
03:54maybe three, four times a month.
03:56What's respite care?
03:57Oh, it's like when a parent or carer has, like, a break away from the person they look after.
04:02So has her dad been drinking again?
04:04No, no, it's just that dad needs to have a bit of time on his own,
04:08and Lily needs to see her friends, yeah?
04:10Well, wouldn't she go back to Tracy's?
04:13She can't walk hands away.
04:14So, she's coming here.
04:17Lily's coming back!
04:19Oh!
04:20Oh!
04:22Hi from over here.
04:24Well, hello over there.
04:26Hi from over here in New York.
04:28Well, hello over there.
04:29How are you?
04:31Oh, missing you, of course, but good.
04:33Hey, I've got some great news.
04:35Oh, me too.
04:37Well, you first.
04:38No, no, you go first.
04:39No, no, no, go on, you go.
04:40OK, well, Lily's having respite care.
04:42It's gonna be a regular thing, which means she can come back to us.
04:45How brilliant is that?
04:47That's great, Tracy.
04:49So, what was your news?
04:51Oh, it's nothing, honestly.
04:52So, how's the flat?
04:54Still a tip, I bet.
04:56Well, I'm trying my best camp, but some eight's just left.
04:59Show me.
05:00No, there's pizza boxes everywhere.
05:03Oh, Tracy Beaker, you're impossible.
05:06Thanks, guys.
05:07I can do the rest from here.
05:09I swear, I shouldn't be shifting beds.
05:11I'm no removal man.
05:12Oh, really?
05:13You smell like one.
05:14Oh, is that right?
05:15Lucky I didn't move in, then.
05:21You didn't really want to move in, did you?
05:23No.
05:25Electra, could I have my necklace back, please?
05:30But you said I could wear it today.
05:32Um, because I was kind of planning to give it to Lily as a welcome home present.
05:38Oh.
05:39Oh, no, that's great.
05:40Give Lily the present that you were going to give to me first.
05:43Wasn't a present more of a borrow?
05:48Yeah?
05:49The day I realised Electra and me could be friends.
05:53You know what?
05:53I don't want your stinking necklace.
05:55Why would I even want a stupid piece of plastic all for your friend?
05:59I'm sorry, Electra.
06:00You can take it out.
06:01Oops, I slipped.
06:02Good morning.
06:06Look, Tracey, you're four hours early for your shift.
06:10Oh, well, it's nice to feel wanted.
06:12No, really?
06:13Why are you here?
06:14Mike said he wanted the files reorganised.
06:16Yeah, but they've needed to do them for years.
06:18Why now?
06:18Tidy filing cabinets, tidy minds.
06:20Right, OK, well, you can do them when you come back.
06:23Now, go home and come back later.
06:25Overtime.
06:26Um, Mike said it would be cool for me to get some extra cash.
06:29Tracey, are you all right?
06:31Absolutely fine.
06:32You're ready for now, I'm here.
06:33Lily!
06:33T!
06:34T!
06:35Hey, baby!
06:36T!
06:37Hey, everyone.
06:38Oh, here we go.
06:42Hey, Carmen.
06:44I made you this card and, like, everyone signed it.
06:48So crazy.
06:50Wow, I love it.
06:54I love it, come on.
06:56All right.
06:58It's good, really good.
06:59It's just, with work, meetings and looking after me, I think he needs a little bit of
07:04a break.
07:05Well, we're always glad to have you here, Lil.
07:07Aw, I really miss you.
07:09Me too.
07:10So, you've had the flat to yourself then?
07:12Yeah, it's been brilliant parties every night.
07:15Cam's back in a week.
07:16Told her you'll be moving back into the flat.
07:18Oh, right.
07:20Obviously, because Cam's your foster parent, I can't have you in the flat now with me on
07:24my own.
07:25But when she's back, yeah, you do want to come back with us, don't you?
07:30Yeah, sure.
07:31I mean, of course I do.
07:33Cool.
07:36Electra?
07:38Would you take this up to Carmen's room for me?
07:42Please.
07:44And, er, you can help her make the bed too, yeah?
07:53There's a disgusting smell in this, friend.
07:56Can't you smell it?
07:57Oh, Tracy, look, when you start a job, you must finish it.
08:08I mean, look at the mess, I can't move.
08:11Sorry, I got distracted by Lily, but I'm on it.
08:14Could you just, just put it all back?
08:16Yeah, Mike did say he wanted it done.
08:18Did he?
08:19Yeah.
08:20So Mike said he wanted you to earn overtime?
08:23Uh-huh.
08:24Well, maybe you should tell Mike how much, because he doesn't know.
08:27Maybe he doesn't remember that conversation.
08:30Tracy, what's wrong?
08:31Nothing.
08:32Is Cam all right?
08:33Cam's fine.
08:35So why are you doing all this extra work?
08:37Tidy office, tidy...
08:37Please!
08:39Don't.
08:42Just clear it up, will you?
08:47You all settled then, Lily?
08:49That is such a nice necklace, by the way.
08:52Thanks.
08:54Are you sure you want to sleep in this room?
08:55It's just there's been a really funny smell coming from here recently.
09:01Just thought I'd let you know.
09:05What was that about?
09:06She's just being hurt.
09:09Can I ask you something?
09:11Yeah, sure.
09:11Tracey's sorting it so that I can have my respite care at hers, and not here.
09:21Well, I suppose they are your foster family.
09:25It's not that I don't like it, Tracey, it's just that I think I'd rather be here.
09:29Well, then you need to tell her.
09:32Look, look, look, no, I'm just saying, my idea of a party and your idea of a party are doing completely different things.
09:38What's going on, guys?
09:39Oh, we're showing out who does what for your party.
09:42My party?
09:43Lily's having a party.
09:45I'm joking.
09:46So, welcome back, then.
09:49Yeah, it's a bit much.
09:50Don't mind Moody over there.
09:52Oh, Sam.
09:52Why don't you make the ice cream and jelly?
09:56We can all sit around, eat fairy cakes and play pass the parcel.
10:00Does that sound fun?
10:03I'll sort the music if you like.
10:04Yeah, great.
10:06All we need now are decorations.
10:07We've got no money.
10:09And?
10:09We just have to make them.
10:11How about paper chains?
10:12Geoff doesn't know what a paper chain is.
10:14I've got a book.
10:15It's called How to Make Everything.
10:16It tells you how to make everything.
10:22I don't know.
10:24It's quite nice.
10:25Mm.
10:25Sport top.
10:27Hello, girls.
10:28Looking lovely.
10:29Oh, hi.
10:31Um, I'm going to go and borrow a hairband from tea.
10:34Why don't you help choose what top?
10:38Well, this top would go lovely, but it's...
10:41Tracey, we need to talk about where I stay when I'm not at Dad's.
10:47Yeah.
10:48I've been thinking about that, too.
10:49You need to spend more time with kids your own age,
10:54so why don't you think about having your respite care
10:57here at the Damping Ground instead of with me and Cam?
11:00Really?
11:01Yeah, it's not because me and Cam don't love you to bits.
11:04We'd love to have you back, but it's your respite care.
11:08You need to really think about what you want from it.
11:15Thanks, Tracey.
11:16My pleasure.
11:17Yeah.
11:19It's spying on Lily.
11:23None of your business.
11:24Oh, this just proves that you can't be trusted.
11:26I mean, first you give the necklace to me,
11:28then you give it to Lily.
11:29Who's next?
11:30Look, I'm really sorry about what you...
11:31Oh, oh, oh.
11:35That's what stinks.
11:37And your rank.
11:38So, Toby, each chain link must be precisely 15 centimetres by 4 centimetres.
11:48Check.
11:49Harry, you're gluing the links together.
11:52Check.
11:53One dab for one link.
11:55Be careful.
11:56I know.
11:56I am doing the most important and difficult job.
12:03Looping the links together.
12:05One miscellaneous link and it all falls apart.
12:08Can we just get going?
12:09Okay.
12:10Begin.
12:11Begin.
12:11Please, go ahead.
12:16No comment.
12:30Don't sit there.
12:31What are you that doing?
12:35I read that the world's longest paper chain is 32.7 metres long.
12:40That's things we can break it.
12:41I have.
12:43Me too.
12:45Okay, but there's a system.
12:47Well, that's a surprise.
13:00Hello?
13:01Hello?
13:02You there?
13:04Hey, Tracy.
13:05Um, look, I'm at work.
13:06Can we talk later?
13:07I'm a bit slowed under here.
13:09Oh, sure.
13:10Um, sorry, no, this won't take long.
13:12Um, it's about Lily.
13:14She's going to have a respite care at the jumping ground, so...
13:17Well, that's it, really.
13:20Oh, right.
13:21Um, is she happy with that?
13:23Yeah, it's what she wanted.
13:25Oh, great.
13:27Okay.
13:28Oh, great.
13:30Cam?
13:30Um, oh, sorry.
13:33Look, this kind of changes things.
13:35What is it?
13:36Um, well, I've been offered a six-month contract here at the magazine.
13:40Um, obviously, if Lily was coming back, I wouldn't take it.
13:45But now?
13:45Wow, that's incredibly flattering.
13:49That's great.
13:50Was that your news yesterday?
13:51Yeah.
13:52Well, what do you think?
13:53And this will give you the real independence you've been waiting for.
13:56Right.
13:56Uh, but if you need me back, I won't take it.
13:59I'm growing up now, Mum.
14:01Cam?
14:02This is an opportunity of a lifetime.
14:04You have to take it.
14:06Oh, I'm so excited.
14:07I can't tell you.
14:09Sorry, I've got to go.
14:10Can we talk later, yeah?
14:11Love you.
14:12Love you, too.
14:13Oh, and Tracey, you're looking tired.
14:15Enough of the parties, yeah?
14:17Get some early nights, okay?
14:18Okay.
14:19Okay, bye!
14:20Bye.
14:33Hi, Steph.
14:35Hi.
14:35How are you doing?
14:37You're calling me.
14:39Yeah, I'm calling you.
14:41How are you?
14:42Oh, I'm on tour with the band.
14:44Yeah, I heard.
14:45Congratulations.
14:47What are you up to?
14:49Working, as usual.
14:52I've got the flat to myself for six months.
14:55Cam's in New York.
14:56Well, big deal.
14:59Yeah, parties every night.
15:02Nice.
15:03I miss you.
15:06Seth?
15:07Trace, this is tough.
15:09I've met this girl on tour.
15:12What was that, Mike?
15:15Yeah, yeah, I'm just coming.
15:16Sorry, Seth.
15:17It's Mike.
15:18I've got to go.
15:19Tracey, listen.
15:25Come on, pull it out.
15:28Don't break it.
15:29Pull it out.
15:31Pull it straight to him.
15:32Gus, it's droopy over here.
15:34Pull it straight to Sapphire.
15:36I am.
15:37Pull it straight to Sapphire.
15:38Gus, I swear if you shout at me one more time, I will thread this chain to your ears.
15:42If we don't pull it straight, we won't be able to measure it.
15:45We're doing our best.
15:47Everyone spread out and pull, yeah?
15:49Don't break it.
15:50Pull it out.
15:51I don't even think about it.
15:53We've worked on this for hours.
15:55You lot are so pathetic.
15:58Okay then, get measuring.
16:04Where have they gone?
16:06I beg your pardon?
16:07I had the files in separate piles.
16:10Alphabetically ordered and by year.
16:12Current here, those who have gone under 16 here, and those who are over that age over there.
16:17I, uh, I put them back.
16:19Keep going.
16:20It's a five metre measure.
16:22When you get down there, put a mark on the chain so we can measure it from there again.
16:27Make sure you're careful with that, Toad, because it'll whiz back and take his fingers off.
16:32Tracey.
16:32I had a system.
16:34I said leave it.
16:35Fine.
16:36Organise your own office.
16:41Tracey, no!
16:55That flippin' hurt.
16:59It's not funny.
17:00What are you doing?
17:13I was the one person in this house who was prepared to be your friend.
17:17Alexa, you don't have to be like this.
17:19Yeah, and who's sorting out, because you're not getting very far, but you've grabbed me the credit to what I've got.
17:30Right, can you please just all get out of here?
17:32What?
17:33And take this with you.
17:34Wait, you don't have to get busted.
17:35I mean it.
17:36Just go to the living room.
17:37That's where Lily's party is.
17:38You might as well make it in there.
17:40It's all your fault.
17:51It's all your fault.
17:51It was not.
17:52It's all your fault.
17:53No, it wasn't.
17:55It's Tracey.
17:56You've got to take a twist.
17:57Don't release me.
17:58It's fine.
17:59Have you had a row?
18:04Said something to upset her?
18:06Look, why don't you just try sorting that up to yourselves?
18:08Talk to a lecturer.
18:10I heard my name.
18:11Hey, Carmen.
18:12Look, is there something going on between you two?
18:14Um, nothing much.
18:15Uh, we had a row earlier about a necklace, but, um, I'm willing to make it up if you are, Carmen.
18:20There, see?
18:21Now we're clear the air.
18:25If there is one thing I hate more than a telltale, it's a telltale that stinks.
18:29Look, after every meter, we've got a match.
18:37We can measure it in.
18:37Fine, take it.
18:39No, look, whoa, look at all this.
18:42Look, look, look, I swear to you, she's going to be back.
18:47Look, you need someone to help me.
18:50You help me, you help me, you help me, please.
18:54Tracey, come in.
18:55Tracey, come in.
18:55Tracey, come in.
18:57Tracey, come in.
18:58Tracey, come in.
18:58Tracey, come in.
18:59Tracey, come in.
19:00Tracey, come in.
19:01What on earth is going on in here, please?
19:02I can't.
19:03I can't breathe.
19:04Somebody to...
19:05This has got to be the worst party ever.
19:18We haven't even had it yet.
19:20I don't really feel like a party now.
19:21I don't really feel like a party now.
19:23I don't really feel like a party now.
19:24I don't know.
19:25I don't know.
19:26I don't know.
19:27I don't know.
19:28I don't know.
19:29I don't know.
19:30I don't know.
19:31I don't know.
19:32I don't know.
19:33I don't know.
19:34I don't know.
19:35I don't know.
19:36Is Geoff all right?
19:37I'm scared.
19:38I'm sure Tracey will be fine.
19:43Look what I've got.
19:47What?
19:48It's an invisible cloak of bravery.
19:52And when Geoff wears it, he feels brave and nothing scares him at all.
19:56How does Geoff feel now?
19:59Geoff feels brave now.
20:00Good.
20:04Cup of tea, lovely.
20:05I'm so sorry.
20:07I don't know what's wrong with me.
20:10You've had a panic attack.
20:12You'll be okay in a few minutes.
20:14Just try and calm yourself.
20:17A panic attack.
20:20Tracey, is everything all right?
20:25I don't know.
20:28I'm fine.
20:30Things are just piling up, I guess.
20:34I'm staying in New York.
20:37Really?
20:39For six months.
20:41I've never seen her so excited.
20:44How do you feel about Lily coming back here?
20:49She's better off here than with me and Cam.
20:52I asked you how you felt about her.
20:54Doesn't matter how I feel.
20:57It's about the kids.
20:59They come first.
21:00Isn't that what you're always telling me?
21:10When people we love do things we don't expect.
21:12Things we rather they didn't do.
21:15That can make us upset.
21:17Angry.
21:18I'm not angry.
21:19No, no.
21:20I know.
21:21I know.
21:22But I can remember a young Tracy Beaker who, when she would get upset with people, would
21:29get very, very angry.
21:31Now, this grown up Tracy Beaker may not get so angry.
21:36Thank goodness for that, eh?
21:40But perhaps she still hasn't quite learned how to express it when she is upset.
21:47Talking, you mean?
21:50When someone loves you.
21:52Or really loves you.
21:54You can tell them that you're upset with them, you know.
21:58They will go away.
22:09Is growing up always this hard?
22:11Only when you care about things so much.
22:17You're like...
22:2032 metres.
22:2333 metres exactly!
22:25It's a new world record!
22:28Woo!
22:32Sorry, Carmen.
22:36Elektra?
22:40What's going on?
22:42Elektra's messing about in her room again.
22:44Okay. Elektra, I've had enough.
22:47Enough of your cruel remarks and horrible looks.
22:50Enough of you hurting me and making me feel bad.
22:53Just because you don't like yourself, don't take it out on other people.
22:56And you won't bully me again.
22:59Understand?
23:01Understand?
23:14Sorry if me not moving back into the flat made you unhappy.
23:27Don't be silly.
23:29I was one that suggested it, remember?
23:34I don't like seeing you upset, Tracy.
23:40You were always the one that I didn't have to take care of.
23:45The one that took care of me.
23:48Like a big sister.
23:56Your life's changing, Lily.
23:59So is mine.
24:01If you ever need to see me, you'll just call, okay?
24:06Now, why aren't you at your own party?
24:09Come to get you.
24:10I think I'll pass.
24:11You don't want me hanging around like a wet blanket.
24:15Please come.
24:16Just for a bit.
24:17For me.
24:20Here, go.
24:21Why on earth would you want to throw me a party?
24:31You needed one more than me.
24:33You're feeling out of sorts.
24:36Certainly was.
24:40It's a horrible picture, but you know, we're all in it.
24:45Thank you so much.
24:48Let's get this party static.
24:50You okay?
24:51I'm fine.
24:52Look, I'm alright now.
24:53Go back to your party.
24:54You've got to stop doing this.
24:55Upsetting people.
24:56And running away from the consequences.
24:57What about the people who upset me?
24:58What happens to them?
24:59Did you tell them they upset you?
25:01Or did you just hide it away?
25:02No.
25:04No, no.
25:08You okay?
25:09I'm fine.
25:11No.
25:12I'm alright now.
25:13Go back to your party.
25:15You've got to stop doing this.
25:17Upsetting people.
25:19And running away from the consequences.
25:21What about the people who upset me?
25:22What happens to them?
25:24Did you tell them they upset you?
25:25or did you just hide it away?
25:35Please come.
25:51I'm sorry.
25:52I know it was just a boring...
25:55It just...
25:56It really hurt me when you took the necklace off me
25:58and you gave it to Lily.
26:05I'm sorry, too.
26:06I mean, it was really mean of me to give it to Lily.
26:09I really am sorry.
26:11Stop the music!
26:15You idiot!
26:16What?
26:19The longest paper chain was 327.1 metres long.
26:25What?
26:26Look!
26:2732.7...
26:29327!
26:31OK.
26:32I mean...
26:33I'm not good at...
26:36Decimal points.
26:41Decimal point!
26:42Decimal point!
26:44Decimal point!
26:45That's funny!
26:46No!
26:47No!
26:48No!
26:49No!
26:50No!
26:58Hello, Tracy Beaker.
26:59Yeah.
27:00There!
27:01Hi!
27:02Hi!
27:03Hiya, Tose.
27:04How you doing, eh?
27:05Looking good.
27:06Didn't know you were coming!
27:07How could I not come to a party in honour of Tracy Beaker, eh?
27:11How you doing, mate? Looking good.
27:13Didn't know you were coming.
27:15How could I not come to a party in honour of Tracey Beaker, eh?
27:21In this house, everyone is linked by troubles
27:23that sometimes make you feel like you don't belong.
27:27But we can get over those troubles
27:28because this is our home.
27:31A place of friendship and trust.
27:34One weak link can upset or break the chain.
27:37But not for long, because none of us will let it.
27:41A place of friendship and trust.
