00:00Got some plans for your engagement entertainment?
00:02Instead of Jack doing his Sinatra show and boring everyone,
00:05I could do some of yours and Steve's favourite tracks.
00:11Get in!
00:12Sully's got my Vicky.
00:14Dodger says there's a threat outside and we need to stay away from the windows.
00:17Another instruction.
00:18Which is?
00:20No.
00:21Tell Sully he'll do exactly what he wants.
00:23They've gone!
00:25Sully bought the stage fighters we sent him.
00:27So he thinks the smithy's dead.
00:28They're the super one's answers, but once he knows what we've been through, he's going to back us.
00:32I'm sorry, I really am.
00:33But you're on your own.
00:35I want to be the father that you deserve.
00:37How would you feel if I came to live with you in Switzerland?
01:25Dear everyone, I wanted to leave a quick note to say goodbye.
01:28And thank you for everything. I'm sorry. I just know that I couldn't say my farewells in person not without
01:33turning into an emotional wreck
01:36Yeah, I'm
01:37I'm leaving Hollyoaks
01:39Guys we need to go and find John Paul. He says he's leaving Hollyoaks
01:47I do love the old place, but now I need to fall in love with somewhere new
01:52I've also dated every gay man within a 30 mile radius, so
01:56Switzerland it is
01:58I'm gonna write a new chapter of my life
02:00With the most important man in the world to me
02:05Matthew darling, we need it fixing before the party. Don't know what you think I'm doing
02:17It's just like I said last night and this morning and 30 seconds ago my partner the mother of my
02:23daughter
02:23Her life was in danger, and that is the only reason I let Smithy escape
02:27Yes, and not because you and him and Sully are all working together. No I
02:32Was the one that sent Sully down and if I was working with Smithy why'd I have spent after yesterday
02:36trying to bring him in?
02:37If you weren't working with him why'd you walk him out the station before we could use him to nail
02:42Sully for corruption?
02:43To save multiple lives
02:46Sully orchestrated this entire thing from inside you shouldn't be questioning me you should be searching his prison cell prison
02:52cell?
02:54Because of your antics you're now under investigation for corruption
02:58Which means that all your recent cases are being reviewed by professional standards and if that wasn't bad enough
03:06Sully's witnesses have flipped so that means that the charges against him are gonna get dropped and his law is
03:11pushing to get him released
03:14Today, I just have to arrest him again. The man's a criminal. He's dangerous and I have to how?
03:20As of right now, you're not even a police officer
03:23You're suspended
03:29Dodger says there's a threat outside, and we need to stay away from the windows
03:34Sit down, they're gonna get you
03:35We all have families that we might never speak to again
03:40Life only gives you so many chances
03:43I have got one beautiful boy left on this earth, and he's taking steroids
03:48Promise me that you will never take any of that stuff again
03:52I'll go and get started on decorations at the hutch. Meet you there. Oh, and this is my engagement party.
03:57I should be sorting that
03:59Rubbish. I want to help. We've had our share of tough times recently, but this shindig today
04:05Let's just say you've made an old bloke very happy. Leave it out. It's true
04:11Sully my own son ashamed this family with his
04:15Sickness
04:16But you'd never do that because you're a gentleman and I love you for it
04:25Oh
04:27Thanks so much
04:32Is that an engagement gift?
04:35Err, guess not. Excuse me. No one with that name works here. Look at you still in your overalls
04:41My manly man. Yeah, well, that's what today's about, innit?
04:45I'm your man
04:46Yeah, it's all happening today. We've got our party and guess what?
04:49John Paul's leaving the country. But for good. Yeah, are you alright with that? I think so. I mean, yeah,
04:56I miss him, but
04:57Look, it's now time to say goodbye to my past and hello my future
05:04Yes, indeed
05:05Hello
05:34Well
05:36Without getting suspended
05:37Suspended?
05:38Yeah, it's procedure the super aster
05:41I just hope for better from him
05:43Well, it's not your boss's job to make you happy. That's mine
05:47And seems like you've got some time off. Maybe I should make it a full-time decision
05:52See, thank you
05:53After everything I've been through the state of me
05:55Nice women are running wild
05:57Not in these heels
05:59Oh
06:05Jim, you heard anything from your dad?
06:07No, and his phone's going straight through his voicemail
06:09Yeah, I know
06:10What could really do with him backing up my statement from yesterday?
06:13Well, where else could he be? I've looked everywhere for him
06:15I don't know
06:16And to be honest
06:18After the way he was the last time I saw him
06:20I'd be surprised if he wants anyone to know
06:21Why not?
06:22Vicky was scared to death yesterday
06:24And she's still shaking up
06:25And what? He just scarpers instead of being with his family
06:29Has he always been like this?
06:30Or is this since...
06:32Griff and Sully?
06:34Why are you asking me?
06:35It's just some stuff that Froggy said
06:37And I can't help but think the way he's acting
06:39It all comes down to that night in Liverpool
06:41I know you were...
06:43I just...
06:44I know it was traumatic
06:49You're asking the wrong person
06:50I can't help you
06:59You're at mum?
07:00Yeah
07:00I just can't decide to just dress away for this party, Lisa
07:04Can I go with none of them?
07:06Er, what's wrong with them?
07:07What's right with them?
07:08Oh, excuse me
07:09I've worn these for more special occasions than you've had prawn linguine dinners
07:13Yeah, exactly
07:14You need to go into town and get yourself some new ones
07:16Oh
07:17Look, I recycle these
07:18What, all of them?
07:19Yeah
07:20And any other ancient dresses you've got
07:22Ancient?
07:23Don't you mean vintage?
07:24Like, will you make sure they go to a good home?
07:26Yeah, how old are you?
07:27Hey, where are you?
07:28Listen
07:29It's Steve's party later, isn't it?
07:31Have you seen our John Paul?
07:33Oh, no way
07:34Because he's moving to the other side of Europe
07:36He's not even said a proper bye-bye to his mum
07:39Don't even know when I'm going to see him again
07:50Do you still have the keys to that fancy pad in Liverpool?
07:53Where I took Warren to be fleeced
07:54Most people say hello first
07:56Do you?
07:57Why are you asking?
07:58I might need to pop by
07:59What, a trip down memory lane?
08:01Froggy, do you have the keys or not?
08:03Lock box out front, the code's 2829
08:07The place is empty, what are you looking for?
08:10Answers
08:15Rex?
08:16Give me a favour
08:18It's anything to do with oil pumps
08:20And no, I never want to see another one of them ever again
08:23No, it's about my mum's dresses
08:26She's getting rid of some old ones
08:27And I was going to take them to Sweat Thunberg on the market
08:30But they're closed today
08:31So can you keep an eye on them until tomorrow for me?
08:34You live literally just there
08:35I'm going that way
08:41Fine
08:46But you owe me one
08:48Right
09:08Are they glad rags for tonight, are they big boy?
09:10No
09:11Fine
09:11Alright, any asking?
09:13Like I need a fuse for this little fella
09:14Got loads in there, haven't you?
09:16Yeah, probably
09:18Probably
09:19Ah, well, I'll probably go and have a look for one myself, shall I?
09:22I mean, don't help me or anything
09:23It's not like I gave you a chance in life when everyone else gave up on you, is it?
09:26No, no, no, don't you worry about it
09:28Cheers for nothing, yeah?
09:35Since when have you done yoga?
09:37Erm, I don't, but I like laying on my back, so
09:41You don't have to share everything with me, babe
09:43Look, come on, what was this cryptic message about?
09:46Because I am a busy lady, don't you know?
09:47Oh yeah, I bet your schedule's packed, innit?
09:50It actually is
09:50I'm out of here tomorrow, so the running rings round me while I'm still under the roof
09:56Oh, I actually feel good
09:58Better, ready to go
10:00I can tell, back to your best
10:02Toot, toot
10:07I need to tell you something
10:09Erm, I had a bit of a day, yesterday
10:13The sort of day that makes you reassess everything
10:17Hey, there he is, the sneaky sausage
10:21Yes, why didn't you tell us he was here?
10:23What is going on?
10:24He's moving to Switzerland, Perez
10:26I cannot believe that you thought that writing a letter
10:30To your mother was a good enough goodbye
10:32Instead of a proper face to face
10:35Sorry
10:38Come here
10:39Love you
10:42I love you too
10:46Do you know what mate, I am so grateful
10:48All the things that you've done for me
10:50Not just that mess with Smithy
10:52You had more than my cousin, you and my brother
10:54A proper role model
10:56The way that you're reconnecting with Matthew
10:58Being a proper dad to him
11:00Just wish I could do the same
11:03You will
11:04You're a good man, come here
11:05Come on

11:42Look, I haven't got long, my taxi's going to be due in a minute
11:45But

14:02Go on
14:04What?
14:09Vodkiss
14:10Come on, kids
14:19I'm so sorry, son
14:21What are you sorry for?
14:25Because when you were first born
14:28It was as bright as a button
14:32And you deserved the world and I couldn't give it to you
14:36You gave me the best thing that any parent can give a child
14:41You made me feel loved
14:45Yes, you're so loved
14:48And you still are
14:50You're so precious
14:52And I'm so proud of the man you are today
14:57Everything you've had to overcome
15:05There are some things in life you never imagine you'll have to face

15:18Get up
15:18No, no, no, no, get up
15:19No, no, no, no!
15:20Big man with the gun, not here?
15:27But you
15:29What are you?
15:30I'm calling the shots here. Get down.
15:33You've had to deal with the toughest stuff this world can throw at a person.
15:45I'm scared.
15:46What are you scared of?
15:48It's Matthew.
15:50What if I let him down? What if I fail him?
15:55You won't fail him.
15:58You are turning your world upside down to be the best parent.
16:06You do anything you can for that boy.
16:09I'll do my best.
16:12You'll do better.
16:14You're the finest man in the entire world, John Paul McQueen.
16:21The best I've ever met and ever will.
16:30I love you.
16:31I love you, son.
16:36You take care.
16:39I need to catch mercy.
16:42I love you.
16:45Hey, buddy.
16:48Yeah, yeah, my taxi's outside.
16:50And I, um, I'll be with you tonight.
16:54I love you.
17:02Cheers, Dad. You've been a great help. I'll just carry everything.
17:06Darren, I'm the talent kid, not the roadie.
17:09And I'm not a roadie, though, am I?
17:10Hey, I'm now part of the band.
17:11Whoa.
17:13Band?
17:14No.
17:15You said to me, leave it with me.
17:17I'll talk him out of singing.
17:18And now what? You're the support act?
17:19You would.
17:21Did you really say that, Darren?
17:23No.
17:23I never said that.
17:25As such.
17:26That I spoke to Rex, right?
17:28I gave him the idea.
17:28He said you'd love it.
17:29Rex?
17:30Yeah.
17:30Seriously?
17:31Yeah?
17:32Speaking of, where is he?
17:53Sonny?
17:58They let you out?
18:00No thanks to you.
18:02Now it's time to pay back.
18:23Hey, love.
18:25Just that brownie, please, Prince.
18:26All couldn't resist.
18:27Don't visit you as well.
18:29Prince, behave.
18:32Right, Jess, it looks nice.
18:33Aw, thanks, man.
18:34Those are media, I think, you know.
18:35It's all over here for Prince McQueen.
18:37Yeah, that's me, that.
18:38Castle emergency, run out of eggs.
18:40Oh.
18:45Nice one, mate.
19:02How many times you're going nowhere?
19:05I can't take this.
19:06I'm not a well man.
19:06I'm sure you should have thought about that before you stabbed me in the back.
19:10You two are fathers.
19:12I suppose to protect their sons, no matter what.
19:15No, the things you've done.
19:17You put me inside as a cop.
19:19As a cop!
19:20Do you have any idea what that means?
19:23Of course you did.
19:24But you did it anyway.
19:25Sally, please let go of my heart, forgive us.
19:29It will.
19:34When I kill you.
19:38Sally, please, no.
19:39Sally.
19:40Sally, please, no!
19:54Sally, please, no!
