00:47Well, Eddie.
00:48You might have called me when I was awake,
00:50instead of leaving me a poxy message.
00:52Of course, I was hoping it was going to be one of these late-night things
00:54that's what you wake up and think better of.
00:56Well, it's not.
00:57I am resigning, and today is my last day.
00:59Rachel, we've just spent seven days putting this school back together.
01:03The counsellor you've got in, she's been great.
01:05That's why now is the right time.
01:08If I had cut and run, I would have failed the kids,
01:10but I did what I had to, and now I take the next step.
01:14Which is?
01:14I admit that I got it wrong.
01:16I take responsibility for Maxine's death.
01:32Hey!
01:33I'm not the only early bird.
01:37I wanted to speak to you last night, Miss.
01:40Do you not remember?
01:41I asked if he was going to be there.
01:42He said, yeah.
01:43Well, that was before I remembered I had this lot waiting for me.
01:46Bugs don't mark themselves, Janice.
01:49All I wanted to do was talk about, you know.
01:53Well, that's why Miss Mason brought the counsellor in.
01:56It's not the same.
01:57Me and you was both there with Max when...
02:02I can't pretend we were...
02:03I'm not.
02:04I just don't see how talking about it can change anything.
02:07If you want my advice, Janice, get on with it.
02:10Just like I am.
02:34Good morning, Mr. Butt-Gin.
02:36Who's it?
02:37I see your usual smiley self again today.
02:40If I'd known it was compulsory,
02:42I'd have worn clown make-up and brought me squirty flout.
02:45You know, I wish I'd met you when I was doing my dissertation.
02:49Oh, yeah? Why's that?
02:50Well, most people hear what I do try and come across all normal.
02:54Not you.
02:56Could get a whole textbook out of you.
03:00Flown-in trick cyclist.
03:03She's a counsellor, Grantley.
03:04There is a difference.
03:11I can't believe you preferred that to us.
03:13Have you seen the way she goes round, like she's some sort of babe?
03:17Except, we know she's alright, dog.
03:21So, why don't we check out that new pub, eh?
03:23Well, yeah, me with the juice, why everyone else gets trashed.
03:25Oh, come on, babe.
03:26I just want to see that smile back on your face.
03:32Hello, you.
03:33So, how did it go with Miss Haydock?
03:36Yeah, it went great.
03:37We really talked about everything.
03:39She said we can go back whenever.
03:41Good.
03:42Good.
03:49Good.
04:01Good time, lads.
04:02Come on.
04:04What's so funny, you lot?
04:06What are you giggling at?
04:06Have a look.
04:10Who did that?
04:12Who did that?
04:13I will find out.
04:15Go on.
04:16Get a move on.
04:19Cracking the whip?
04:20Uh-huh.
04:21Keeping on top of things, yeah?
04:22Now, I thought you might want to be the first to know my news.
04:25My decree absolute came through.
04:26Really, Melissa?
04:27That's brilliant.
04:29Well, that means there's nothing in your way.
04:30You and Eddie can go and get married.
04:31Well, no rush.
04:32One step at a time, eh?
04:42Are you joking?
04:44Kids, anyone says nothing?
04:46What are they doing here?
04:47Paul, this has got nothing to do with you.
04:49If you could just get on, please.
04:51Rose, hi.
04:52Can we take this upstairs?
04:54We'll be in two rooms.
04:55Yeah.
05:12We've got to get this sorted, yeah?
05:15Bolton.
05:23Is that the best you can do?
05:25Next week, I want you hitting your opponent, not tickling him.
05:30OK, mate.
05:30Are you going to tell me what's going on?
05:32What?
05:32Next week, you step into the ring, and when you focus, this week, it's like you're not even there.
05:37I'm here, right?
05:37I'm training.
05:40All right, OK, go on.
05:42Have you away.
05:49Paul, did you want anything?
05:52Not sure.
05:57Oh, hey, don't you think you might have thrown a sickie?
06:00I can smell the fumes ten feet away.
06:03I had a drink last night, so...
06:05Yeah, and the night before.
06:07Hand a sniff the first thing to give you the push to come into this hell hole.
06:11Do you know something, Grantley?
06:12Until I have a nose like yours, I think twice about giving lectures.
06:15Good morning, everyone.
06:17Just a couple of notices.
06:20Firstly, today is Charlotte's last day.
06:22Oh.
06:23Whoopie-doo.
06:24I'd like to say thanks from all of us for the work you've done with the kids,
06:26because we've really noticed a turnaround.
06:29It's not all my doing.
06:30They're a strong unit.
06:32You don't always find that in schools.
06:34And secondly, I have called a governor's meeting,
06:37because I want to put on record all your achievements in,
06:40well, you know, helping to bring the school back together.
06:44So well done, everybody.
06:45We don't need a meeting.
06:46Just give us a bonus.
06:48Well, I'll catch up with you later.
06:51So, no big announcements.
06:53Does this mean you're having a change of heart?
06:55It's due process, Eddie.
06:56I'll talk with the staff when I've spoken with the governors.
06:59Unless they say no.
07:01Well, I'll convince them otherwise.
07:04Anyway, right now, we've got the Kellys waiting.
07:05Rose has brought Marley and Sam in.
07:08And have you found another one of these things?
07:10No.
07:12What's not?
07:12Can you please find out who's been doing it?
07:14Not much of anything important to do, is it?
07:19Are you OK?
07:21I've got Grantley playing the old woman.
07:22I don't need you at all.
07:24Hey.
07:26Sir, a lot of whispering going on.
07:29Yeah.
07:30If I tell you, it goes no further, OK?
07:32What?
07:33It's your sister.
07:34She's going.
07:38Close going to take a while, Dante.
07:40She has lost a close mate.
07:43Do you want me to talk to her?
07:44No.
07:45I mean, thanks, but it's just...
07:48You want to be the one to help her.
07:52You really love her.
07:53Of course.
07:55Then you could make sure that she knows that.
07:58I mean, Chloe feels like her world's turned upside down right now.
08:02Knowing you're always there for her, whatever the problem,
08:05that would help a lot.
08:07Yeah.
08:08I'm going to miss.
08:09It's OK.
08:13Hi.
08:14I heard it going well with Janice last night.
08:17So it was you who cooked that up, was it?
08:19Well, I don't know what you expected,
08:21but I'll tell you what I told her.
08:23To stop moping and get over it.
08:25Excuse me.
08:31I told Marley this was a bad idea.
08:33Rose, you must have been aware
08:34that some people would be unhappy to see you.
08:36You can imagine what the kids at this school have been through,
08:39bringing Sam and Marley back.
08:41Might not be the wisest choice.
08:43They want us to kill Maxine, though, are they?
08:44You think that matters to them?
08:46It's probably them that put our windows in, Sam.
08:48No, no, you're right.
08:50Thinking we could come back, us, Dad.
08:52So we're just going to go to another school now
08:53and get bullied there, yeah?
08:55Did I just forget you're all right, Sam?
08:56I was wrong, I'm sorry.
08:58No, no, wait, just wait.
09:02Yes, it would be simpler if you went to another school.
09:05It would.
09:06But like Sam says, there's no guarantee that it'd be better.
09:09People do read their papers, you know, Mum.
09:11Just there's no guarantee coming back here would work.
09:14Look, all I can promise you is
09:15if Sam and Marley want to return,
09:17we will do our utmost to make sure
09:18they feel every bit as welcome as any other pupil.
09:20Like the head says, we'll do our best.
09:23If it's what you really want.
09:28Yeah.
09:29Good.
09:30So let's sort out some catching up with school work, shall we?
09:32Just wait a minute.
09:37So how are you going to do that?
09:39Support them when you're not even here.
09:41It's the right thing, isn't it?
09:42So what, if you just make everything neat and tidy and then go?
09:46Something like that, yes.
09:51Miss, what's French for concerned?
09:54Sousier.
09:55You should know that, Alicia.
09:58Sous-
09:59What?
09:59Sorry, how many S's are there?
10:02Sousier.
10:03Danielle, one S.
10:04Careful, Miss, she's spitting.
10:07I don't spit, Alicia.
10:09Oh, that was nasty.
10:11Oh, I see.
10:13Some little joke, is it,
10:14on account of me having had too many cherries last night?
10:17Some little joke.
10:19Well, count your blessings, madam.
10:21I could have gone overboard on the garlic, as well.
10:23I want hemp on your cheeses.
10:28I think Bolton's bitten me to it.
10:31You've got a face like sour milk.
10:35Bad as that, is it?
10:36You think it's right, do you?
10:38Making jokes after what happened.
10:45Back to work.
10:54I did ask Eddie not to tell anyone.
10:56And I'm your sister, so why?
10:58And not the rubbish you tell everyone else, either.
11:01Not the truth.
11:03I'm tired.
11:04Oh, Rach, you know, that kind of goes with the job.
11:06No, I mean, I am really tired.
11:09Of worrying and...
11:12going over every decision
11:13and wondering, have I got it right?
11:16You know, you're exactly the same when you were a kid.
11:18Everything just so.
11:19But why dwell on all the things that could go wrong?
11:22Why not focus on the positive things?
11:25Because that's just not how I see it, Mel.
11:27What I see is my mistake in keeping Earl here.
11:33I just don't trust my own judgment anymore.
11:36I don't.
11:38That's why I've got to go.
11:46And when you've done that,
11:47we'll do washing up, drying,
11:49and don't forget the lasagna.
11:54Hiya.
11:55That actually looked cool.
11:57Are you joking?
11:58I mean, have you seen how busy we are?
12:00No, I just don't.
12:03How have you been?
12:05So you couldn't pick up the telephone and give us a ring?
12:08Hmm?
12:09Come here.
12:12No.
12:15Why don't I just tell him?
12:16What's going to happen?
12:17Oh, yeah, tell Miss Mason.
12:18He knew Earl had gone from day one.
12:20Why not?
12:21If you don't, I will.
12:22He's doing nothing.
12:24I really want everyone to know
12:25we've got to stop telling him, didn't he?
12:27Are you proud of that?
12:27Because I ain't.
12:29Of course not.
12:30Chill out.
12:32If it was us, Maxine wouldn't be dead.
12:34I want Janine to call it down.
12:40Mr Evans.
12:41Rachel.
12:42Hi, Adam.
12:43Hi.
12:44Can you tell me what this meeting's about?
12:46Yes, absolutely.
12:46Follow me.
12:53I've been looking for you.
12:55I spoke to Miss Haydock.
12:58Why lie?
12:59She told me to just get on with it.
13:01That's what I want, Miss.
13:03I'm going to go back to Harold Ross.
13:04You can't do that by shutting off.
13:07I'm sure you know what you're doing.
13:08Just do your part, Dad.
13:09Hey, and don't forget, you said your sub was 20 quid.
13:11No, it was 15.
13:13And that's if you wash the limo inside and out at weekend.
13:15Oh, come on, man.
13:16There's no arming round up, though, is there?
13:18You're lucky I'm up to my eyes in Buckingham's here.
13:20Ah, you're a legend, Dad.
13:21Top man.
13:22Oi, don't forget, yeah?
13:23Do exactly like I said.
13:25I know.
13:26Top man, see you in a bit.
13:29Yeah, smile.
13:30I was going to need your help later.
13:32Hey, come on, mate.
13:33Lighten up, yeah?
13:34You weren't the only one that done when I'm back, you know?
13:37The Kellys.
13:38I thought you knew.
13:42What's going on?
13:43I've got these school dinners to get on with.
13:44Well, hopefully, we're doing the right thing.
13:50Can we get on?
13:52There's no agenda.
13:53I assume because you want to discuss recent events.
13:55No, in part, yeah.
13:57Obviously, the LEA will compile its own report, but it won't hurt to show that we're ahead
14:02of the game.
14:03I'm thinking sweeping changes.
14:04Fresh look at everything.
14:06Then again, change for change's sake never solves anything.
14:08The important thing now is to trust the people here to put Waterloo Road right.
14:12Meaning what?
14:12Everything's fine?
14:13The school's running well?
14:14Let's simply close our eyes?
14:16No.
14:17No, Leon, you're right.
14:18Something did go wrong.
14:20And if we're to learn from that, we have to accept it.
14:22Just as I have to accept my responsibility.
14:25It wasn't a failing by my staff.
14:27It was my decision to persevere with Earl.
14:30I thought I could make a difference.
14:33And whether that was arrogance or naivety, it was wrong.
14:37Hold on, Rachel.
14:38And because of that, I'd like you to accept my resignation.
14:43With immediate effect.
14:49Dissonant, meaning unusual in combination.
14:51Anyone got an example?
14:52From the passage that we just read.
14:54Paul?
14:57Paul?
15:01Paul!
15:02Where did you think you're going?
15:04Sit, get...
15:04Come in!
15:04Oi!
15:06I've worked with a number of heads, and Rachel's the best by a country mile.
15:10My advice, take that letter and bin it.
15:12Eddie...
15:13This school is better on all counts because of her.
15:16If this school works, it's because of Rachel Mason.
15:19No one else.
15:21Oi!
15:21No!
15:22No!
15:23No!
15:23Stop!
15:25No!
15:26What's going on, Paul, get out of the way?
15:28Oh, Dad!
15:28Stop that up!
15:29Now!
15:29Here!
15:30What do you think you're doing?
15:32Ah!
15:33Have you learned nothing?
15:35You are dead, man!
15:35We want you and your family out of here!
15:37Hold on.
15:38This is stupid.
15:38How's this going to keep things quiet?
15:40He woke up, and that is enough from you!
15:42That was for hell, man.
15:43That's what I should have done from day one!
15:44I said that is enough!
15:45You know he was just as bad as him.
15:47No, me.
15:47Where are me that started this?
15:48I don't care who started it.
15:49Just calm down, all right?
15:51Right.
15:51Do you want to tell me what's going on here?
15:52And what should you have done to world day one, Bolton?
15:54Hey?
15:54What?
15:57Get to your lessons now.
15:58Go on.
15:59Go!
16:01Someone please tell me what started this!
16:06Don't tell Miss Mason now!
16:09Right, you're going to keep it to yourselves.
16:11Fine.
16:11You get to the cooler.
16:12Go on.
16:15Davina, can you make sure he gets there?
16:17Yeah.
16:18Paul, I'll speak to you later.
16:19Go on.
16:20I'll take care of him.
16:21I'll call the school doctor.
16:22No, it's fine.
16:23I don't need a doctor.
16:23We'll be the judge of that, thank you.
16:25Well, let's get you sorted.
16:30Right, shall we get inside?
16:31I'm really sorry about this.
16:33I really, I apologise for that.
16:35No, no, it's me that should be apologising.
16:38Miss Mason, this school needs strong leadership,
16:41something I know you can offer.
16:43I don't want you to go.
16:45I think you're being rash.
16:47We can't have any doubts coming from the top.
16:49Take until close of play.
16:51If you're still determined, then it's best it's done as quickly and effectively as possible.
17:00Joyce, a copy to every member of staff, please.
17:07You're sending the staff letters when he's giving you another six hours to make up your mind.
17:11It's already made up.
17:12You're wasting your breath.
17:12I'm leaving teaching, Eddie.
17:13Hang on, leaving teaching?
17:14Yes, a fresh start.
17:15Why not?
17:16Because it's your life.
17:17Not anymore.
17:18But I'm recommending you for the job.
17:20Me?
17:20Yeah, I'm a married man.
17:21You'll be favoured by the board.
17:22Excuse me, I need to see Molly.
17:26Look, someone was going to have a pop.
17:28Maybe I got off light.
17:30Molly?
17:30It's no joking matter.
17:32Well, what would you have me do?
17:33Cry?
17:34I'm just saying, if Bolton belting me means things getting back to normal quicker,
17:38then, you know, I can live with that.
17:39No, you said your family didn't do normal.
17:42Well, maybe things are going to change.
17:44And maybe, well, getting banged up is the best thing that could have happened.
17:48You're glad?
17:49No, he's my brother.
17:49I just...
17:50If it means the rest of us getting a chance, then why not?
17:56I look worse than it is, miss.
17:57Well, that doesn't matter.
17:58The point is, I don't condone violence.
18:00So get cleaned up and get into my office.
18:02Let's put an end to this now.
18:04Right, I want top dollar, yeah?
18:06Don't want those skanky leftovers.
18:11Donny Charles.
18:13Yeah, thanks for getting back to his boss.
18:15Here's the thing, I'm in a bit of a position to put a lot of business your way.
18:20So, let's talk about a free sample.
18:23Yeah?
18:25Right.
18:26I'll tell you what, mate, I'll get back to you on that one.
18:28Don't take my van.
18:30It was here.
18:31Yeah, I know baby's asked who was on the phone to the police.
18:34You think it's stolen?
18:35It's bright purple with my name on it.
18:37Who the hell would want to nick that?
18:38Kids?
18:39Oh, we were fed up of joyriding and want to do a bit of styling and some crimping as well.
18:43Yeah, I totally agree with you, babe.
18:44It's a mystery.
18:46Well, maybe they should check out the old people's home.
18:48You know, look out for anyone with a suspicious perm.
18:58You thought they wouldn't notice a pack of hyenas, that lot.
19:01Now, they see a weakness, they go for it.
19:03It's the same as those pictures of Jasmine.
19:05The kids didn't mind, Grantley.
19:07They were having a right laugh.
19:08Oh, and that's what you want, is it?
19:10To be a figure of fun?
19:12Yeah, well, we get that without giving them ammunition.
19:14Why are you going on about it?
19:16It's no big deal.
19:18All it is, is that the house is too quiet without Maxine to boss around.
19:24What else am I going to do?
19:25I don't believe it.
19:27Have you guys read this?
19:28More rah-rah from Miss Mason.
19:32Er, hardly rah-rah, Grantley.
19:35She's quit.
19:36What?
19:37That must be someone playing a joke.
19:39Well, some of our kids have got a sixth sense of humour, Matt, but none of them can spell quite
19:42as well.
19:43Well, someone has to talk her out of it.
19:46Look, I'll talk to her, but what do I say?
19:49Well, what do you think?
19:50You know, what we all think.
19:52I hope that doesn't include me.
19:53Well, the king is dead.
19:56Long live the king.
19:57Whoever's sat in that chair, they'll lack the same.
19:59That's crap.
20:00And you know it.
20:01Yeah, come off it, Grantley.
20:02She's pulled you out the fire enough.
20:04Yeah.
20:05Not just you.
20:06For God's sake.
20:07Will you get over it?
20:09You'll be wanting to give her a sainthood next.
20:12Well, I, for one, am glad she's going.
20:13Rachel really put the skill on the map?
20:15Yes, as somewhere that accepts all the dregs, maybe.
20:19It's a shame she didn't do it before.
20:21Maxine might still be alive.
20:27I won't pretend I don't know what this is about, but I need the fact.
20:30So, um, Marley, did you do anything to provoke Bolton?
20:34Oh, he gets beaten up and it's his fault of this.
20:37Our breathing, that was enough.
20:39Miss Mason asked you a question, Marley.
20:42No, I did nothing.
20:44Is that right, Bolton?
20:46You're in trouble, lad.
20:47Don't make it worse.
20:48What's the point?
20:49You all saw what I did.
20:51He's a skank.
20:52Hola, Bolton.
20:54Okay, Marley.
20:56It's obvious you're not to blame.
20:57You can go.
21:00Rose, I'll speak with you later, okay?
21:09Okay, Bolton.
21:10Now, what did Paul mean by keeping it quiet?
21:14Nothing.
21:14I'm not stupid.
21:16Is there unfinished business there?
21:18Earl's out of reach, so you have a go at his brother?
21:20Or maybe attacking Marley was just for starters.
21:22I mean, well, you've been going on about no-one wanting this family here.
21:26Maybe you're driving them out to impress your mates.
21:29Don't need to impress anyone.
21:30Really?
21:31Fine.
21:32You wait outside, please.
21:38Look, let me talk to him and I'll get truth.
21:41We can't let something like this nigh.
21:43It's up to us to find out what's going on.
21:45What does that mean?
21:46What's going to happen to him?
21:47I'll try talking with him, but to be honest, there's really not a lot I can do about it now.
21:52And you're still set on going?
21:54So there'll be a new headmaster and new punishments.
21:58I'll leave a detailed report, you know, describing how I deal with it.
22:02Oh, that's going to do a lot of good.
22:04Look, please.
22:06Miss Meerson, Bolton listens to you.
22:11Please.
22:30Hey.
22:32Hey.
22:33Hey.
22:38What do you want, Matt?
22:41I'm worried about you.
22:44Worried about the booze or the foul temper?
22:47All of it.
22:49Steph, this isn't you.
22:51So you've come here to tell me how the real Steph would behave, have you?
22:55No, of course not.
22:56Only I'm not cut out for widow's weeds, Matt.
22:59How am I supposed to behave?
23:01How am I supposed to be to make everyone else happy?
23:05Eh?
23:07Well, come on, if you're such an expert.
23:10I just want you to know...
23:14You know where I am.
23:17OK?
23:18Yeah.
23:27So you don't think this school's already had its fill of violence, then, Bolton?
23:31Sit!
23:34Not a word.
23:35Thank you, Tom.
23:42I've been sort of co-opted.
23:44Tom, really, there's no point.
23:45There is no-one in that staff room that wants you to go.
23:48Well, I don't want you to go.
23:50Change frightens people.
23:52You know, two weeks with a new head, we'll all move on.
23:54We don't need a new head.
23:56It isn't just the kids that have benefited, it's all us lot as well.
23:59It's because you're good teachers and you don't need me for that.
24:01It should be me that goes, not you.
24:03I mean, no-one's saying it, but I'm head of pastoral care.
24:05If anyone loused up with Earl Kelly, it was me.
24:07Sorry, Tom, I'm not backing down on this.
24:09Yes?
24:09Yeah, just wait a minute, Janice.
24:11Thank you, I really appreciate it.
24:14I'm going to take a minute, Janice.
24:16Is Bolton okay?
24:18No, he's not.
24:19He's in big trouble.
24:20It's not all his fault.
24:22He's been like...
24:23Like what?
24:25Off.
24:26Max was my mate, but...
24:29He's took it harder.
24:32I don't know why.
24:34Okay.
24:39Miss Mason's put a lot of work in with you.
24:41And what?
24:42I never asked her to.
24:43Oh, so that makes it all right then, does it?
24:45To chuck it all back at her?
24:46Just get out of my face, man.
24:48You know what, Bolton?
24:48It's that kind of attitude that makes me wonder why we bother.
24:51It's no wonder Miss Mason wants to leave, if this is how you repay her.
24:58Are you busy?
25:00Oh, I think this is Rachel's way of making sure I don't talk any sense into her.
25:04She's got me hunting for whoever's behind this.
25:07Yeah.
25:08Oh.
25:09Oh, that's nice.
25:11Oh, yeah.
25:13Oh, well, I get this every day after a stressful day at work.
25:17Being the head honcho.
25:21Rachel wants me to go for the headship.
25:23Are you going to?
25:24I prefer her to stay, but...
25:26Looks like I won't get that choice.
25:29Still, got a wedding to look forward to, eh?
25:34You do still want to get married?
25:36Of course I do.
25:37It's just, you know, Rachel's my sister, and...
25:39Seems unfair that we're making all these plans and she's going to be left with nothing, that's all.
25:43Do you want to delay things?
25:46If you do, just say, Mel.
25:47Well, I want to do this, but you need to want it, too.
25:53Ignore me.
25:54I'm just being silly.
26:11I'm just being silly.
26:17I don't suppose you could throw in a couple of them follow-ups, could you?
26:20What's this in there, though?
26:21Ah, nah, nah, I'll be telling, wouldn't it, miss?
26:23We're ready for this afternoon, yeah?
26:26Do you believe it?
26:27Me taking orders from a 17-year-old.
26:31You know what our Bolton said?
26:33You know, I don't believe that, don't you?
26:35Yeah.
26:36Anyway, you know, you and I have got more to worry about than that.
26:40Mason's only gone quit.
26:42She can do.
26:43She looks sick as a pig about it, but Evans has given it to end at day, and then it's
26:47accepted.
26:48You know what that means, don't you?
26:49People are going to blame us.
26:52And they'd be right.
26:54That's to know, innit?
27:00Right, listen to me.
27:01A's on that side, B's on this half.
27:03Come on, quick as you like.
27:06Hey, what's she want?
27:08Bolton's got something playing on his mind.
27:11Janice doesn't even know what it is.
27:12Yeah, I know.
27:13He's been off his training all week.
27:14Really?
27:15All week.
27:16Alicia, did I say collect the oranges or take all day?
27:19Come on, come on, let's go.
27:22Hey, wait until you hear this.
27:24You see, Paul knows more than he's telling us as well.
27:27Hmm.
27:28You offering me on?
27:29No, straight up.
27:31Are you two helping out or having a gossip with each other?
27:34And you won't be so lippy once your best mate's been chucked out.
27:37What are you on about?
27:38He doesn't know.
27:39I know Bolton hit Marley, if that's what you mean.
27:42Which means he's for it.
27:43Especially now Mason's resigned.
27:45Yeah, it's true.
27:46I heard.
27:47Bet you anything she had no choice, neither.
27:49It was either that or get booted.
27:50Well, someone was going to have to cop for it, for what happened with it.
27:53Why not shut it here?
27:54You don't know nothing, the pair of you.
27:56Got him.
27:57Do you fancy Mason or something?
28:00He's gone all red.
28:02Dream about her, do you?
28:04Oh, Rachel.
28:06Oh.
28:09What's going on?
28:11Erm, nothing, sir.
28:12Paul was just saying who his first pics would be.
28:14Oh, shut it.
28:15In a line.
28:16Oh, Paul, Miss Mason wants a word.
28:17Woo!
28:22Alright.
28:23Yes.
28:26Cheers.
28:27See you later.
28:28See you later.
28:29See you later.
28:30See you later.
28:33See you later.
28:52No.
29:03Babe, look.
29:04Look, the thing is, I just brought in a bit of stuff, you know, because...
29:07Just give it to you.
29:12So, do you think she guessed anything?
29:14Oh, no, of course not.
29:16Defo.
29:29So, do you want to tell me what that was about earlier?
29:31Hmm?
29:32Don't know what you mean, miss.
29:33You know, you'd be a lot more convincing if you could look me in the eye.
29:36Bolton had a reason for hitting Marley, I know that.
29:39And there's something he doesn't want you to tell me about, so what is it, Paul?
29:41No, miss.
29:42And you still haven't told me what you meant by keeping it quiet?
29:45What was that?
29:46In case I didn't make myself clear, Bolton is in big trouble.
29:49So what do I not know?
29:50I don't know.
29:53If you want to know, ask him.
29:55That's Bolton.
30:02Good timing.
30:03I could kill a cuppa.
30:08I, um, I just wondered what you thought would be achieved by me talking to Janice.
30:14For her?
30:16A chance to draw a line?
30:18Closure.
30:19It's a bit hackneyed, I know.
30:21But it seems to work.
30:22And talking would make everything all right, would it?
30:24You don't make something like this right.
30:27All any of us can do is find a way to live with it.
30:30Same way as Janice is.
30:31She shared the last moments of her mate's life.
30:34She needs to make sense of that.
30:36So why does that have to include me?
30:39Doesn't.
30:40Not if you're set against.
30:41Good.
30:42Because I am.
30:44Though it wouldn't be all one-way traffic.
30:46Do I look like I'd be sitting around hanging my emotions out to dry?
30:51Probably not.
30:52I imagine you're a very resourceful woman.
30:55Strong.
30:56But you'd have to be.
30:58It's not so many who go back to living in a house with so many memories.
31:02Knowing it's where Max died.
31:04I manage.
31:05I don't doubt.
31:07Which is why I sought your help.
31:09My help?
31:10The truth is, Janice has me beat.
31:13I mean, I know there's something that she's still fighting.
31:17It's as if she feels guilty for what happened.
31:19Guilty?
31:20What for?
31:21That's what I hoped you might find out.
31:31Stupid cut and paste pictures.
31:34What is this?
31:35You two put in a bid in to go back to reception?
31:38Sorry, sir.
31:38Sorry doesn't even start to make up for what you did.
31:42So?
31:43I'm waiting.
31:45I'm glad it's you, sir.
31:46Huh?
31:48Makes sense, Dylan.
31:50Because no one else would get it, sir.
31:53How I tried to keep it all in.
31:56This is about what happened?
31:59Lisa's been making out like she could cope.
32:01We both have.
32:03You're saying you're not?
32:07Why didn't you just say?
32:10Trying to put on a daft act is silly.
32:15Right, here's what we're going to do.
32:17You're excused from classes.
32:19I want you to go and talk to the counsellor, yeah?
32:22Go on.
32:28Thanks, sir.
32:41So this is it?
32:43Your whole teaching career in a plastic box?
32:46Don't start, Eddie.
32:48I just thought there might still be a way of talking you around.
32:50Well, there's not.
32:52Well, if you're hell-bent on going, I suppose I'd be daft not to put in for it.
32:56Have you changed your mind?
32:59It'd be weird to see my name up there instead of yours.
33:01Well, I'm glad.
33:02I'm just thinking of the kids.
33:04They've had enough upheaval.
33:08So, what do you want to do?
33:10What do you mean?
33:11When are you planning on telling them?
33:13Oh, I hadn't thought.
33:14Rachel, the kids deserve a bit more than just a letter O.
33:19Oh, unless you were planning on just sloping up.
33:23Only I thought Waterloo Road still meant something to you.
33:27You know it does.
33:30I just felt sure I was leaving with a cleaner slate.
33:32Well, if you're talking about our phantom poster sticker-upper, that's dealt with.
33:35I'm not.
33:36I'm talking about Bolton.
33:38Of all the kids, I thought that he was the one that I made a difference to.
33:44And even Paul, I don't get that.
33:46Bolton's little sidekick.
33:47Well, his best mate is in big trouble, and he's not doing anything to help him.
33:51All I get is this wall of silence.
33:53From both of them.
33:54Well, that's their lookout.
33:56Yeah, but what if Candice was right?
33:57What if the LEA do bring in a temporary head with a mandate to come down hard?
34:01It's out of your problem.
34:02You'll be gone.
34:04Yeah, but I can't leave it like that.
34:08Till I leave here, this is still my responsibility.
34:15I think it's cute.
34:18But why a piddle?
34:20Yeah, Eddie's dealing with it.
34:21I really don't know why you're getting so angry.
34:24You would do it, will you?
34:25No, I'd want something a little bit more masculine.
34:27Maybe a German shepherd or a boxer.
34:32What the hell was he playing at?
34:34Come off it, Chloe.
34:35How many blokes do you know make sense?
34:37Bringing my dress into school, waving it around.
34:39That's weird even by Donnie's standards.
34:41Probably just him being daft.
34:43Meaning what?
34:44How should I know?
34:45Straight A's, and you're still a pretty crap liar.
34:48Are you going to tell me what's going on, or what?
34:51Fine, I'll just test Donnie.
34:52No, you can't.
34:54It'll spoil it.
34:57It started with what happened.
34:59Maxine.
35:00Only, I suppose, I just want to be loved.
35:06Well, we all want that.
35:08Go on.
35:09For who I am, I mean.
35:11I keep thinking that my friends think that I'm getting good marks because of my looks.
35:18And how does this make you misbehave?
35:20It's so they see that I'm not cleverer than them.
35:23Or if I am.
35:24It doesn't really matter.
35:26I'm just the same as them.
35:28It's a cry for help, miss.
35:31Sorry, I'm not sure I'm getting this.
35:34Are you saying the cause of your misbehaviour is Maxine, or because you want to be accepted?
35:40Both, miss.
35:41Hmm.
35:43We were wondering if it's, like, survivor's guilt.
35:48Hmm.
35:48What have I done to deserve all this?
35:52Clever, good looking.
35:53Hmm.
35:54Yes, I can see how it might do.
36:01What are you doing?
36:02Oh, sorry.
36:03Just notes.
36:04For your case study.
36:06Case?
36:12Firstly, what I'm about to tell you is nothing to be scared about.
36:16But what you're describing are elements of borderline sociopathic behaviour.
36:22An inability to fit in.
36:23All I said was that I want to be loved.
36:25Which may require some special care.
36:29Hold on.
36:30We're not special needs.
36:33Either that, or you're two very vain, self-centred girls
36:37who have chosen to milk an awful situation for all it's worth.
36:40But I can't believe that.
36:47Uh, no, wait.
36:49We're sorry, miss.
36:50Mm-hmm.
36:54So what are you going to do?
36:56Depends.
36:57Maybe I don't want to marry someone that parades around in my clothes.
37:00Maybe instead of saying, I will, I'll say, I won't.
37:03You can't, you're already married.
37:05Anyway, what if Dante does like wearing dresses?
37:08It's quite a turn, aren't it?
37:10Yes, babes.
37:12Come on, I've got a surprise for you.
37:14What?
37:14I found a perfect pair of tights to set off your legs.
37:18Well, come with me and you'll see.
37:20We're about to do our nails.
37:22You can join us if you want.
37:24Babes, please.
37:25No.
37:26I'm going to have to blindfold you.
37:29Yes.
37:33I thought we should have another talk, Paul.
37:36Without any distractions.
37:38I want to know what you meant when you said you'd already tried.
37:43Was that about what Bolton has planned for the Kellys?
37:46What?
37:47No.
37:48That's what it seems like.
37:50It seems to me like Bolton's seen Earl get locked up
37:54and fancies being top man again.
37:56No, miss.
37:57Honest.
37:58Why else would he attack mine?
38:00If it wasn't to intimidate him,
38:02Bolton's back to being a thug.
38:03Is that right?
38:04Look, you've got this wrong.
38:05Then put me right.
38:08Paul, I don't know if you realise,
38:10but whatever Bolton has in mind,
38:12you're as culpable as he is.
38:13Me?
38:13Yes, you.
38:14If you know what it is, of course.
38:16And if you think you could just let it all blow up
38:18and then pretend that you could do nothing about it,
38:20you are kidding yourself.
38:24Oh, Paul.
38:26Come on.
38:27This school's been through enough.
38:29Do you really think that we need to see Bolton go the same way as Earl?
38:32He's not.
38:33Then tell me.
38:35I tried before, didn't I?
38:38Explain what you mean.
38:41Do not.
38:42On the first day of term.
38:44It was me.
38:47You wrote that note about there being a gun in the school.
38:52How did you know that?
38:54You sure as it threatened us and told us not to say anything.
38:58Wait a minute.
39:01So Denzel shows you a gun?
39:03You must have known the danger in that to everyone.
39:06But you don't say anything.
39:07You leave a note that could have been dismissed as a hoax.
39:09No, miss.
39:11It wasn't him.
39:13It wasn't Denzel who had the gun.
39:16It was Earl.
39:21How could he do that?
39:23I don't know, Rose.
39:24To his own brother.
39:26And what does that say about me?
39:30That I brought him up to do something like that?
39:35No, they should just lock me away as well.
39:38It's the best place for me.
39:40One away from me.
39:41Other kids where I can't hurt them anymore.
39:43No, you've got that wrong.
39:45All your children need you.
39:47Late for that.
39:48It's not all so bad, Rose.
39:49Denzel is innocent.
39:51We have got a chance of getting him out.
39:58Go on, keep going.
39:59Keep going, babe.
40:00I'm going!
40:02Are you ready?
40:04Yeah.
40:06One, two, three.
40:11Wow, someone nicked it and did all this.
40:13No, I did.
40:14Well, right with me dad and me nan.
40:16What, are they going on on a day with it or something?
40:18No, it's for us.
40:20It's all about blessing it.
40:25You already knew?
40:26Yeah, but it's still lovely, though.
40:30Whoa.
40:31I always want to be with you.
40:34And I want you to know that you can rely on me no matter what I promise.
40:39I just want to let you know.
40:43Only our way.
40:49I never thought I'd be coming to see a counsellor hardboot like me.
41:00Why not kick off, Janice?
41:03What was it you wanted to say to Steph?
41:06Come on.
41:07Cat got your tongue.
41:12In which case, why don't I set the ball rolling?
41:17I just wanted to know if she was angry, if she was still angry with me.
41:23Why angry?
41:26We had a fight and I was too busy to listen to her.
41:34And I just wonder what would have happened if I had.
41:39And then we didn't have time to make it up, so she probably ate on me.
41:44No, miss.
41:46You weren't like that at all.
41:48Well, you would say that.
41:50But it's true.
41:52She were cooking.
41:55She said what a right mare she'd been to.
41:58She wanted to make it up.
42:01By making tea.
42:04She said you've always got something special when you've been down.
42:08She said that.
42:12She said lots.
42:15That she couldn't have asked for a better mum.
42:19I can't believe I missed it.
42:21What, like the rest of us did?
42:22Yes, but it's my job.
42:23Well, thank God you're still doing it then.
42:30Right, I've spoken with the LEA legal officer.
42:33Now, the first thing you do need to do is swear an affidavit.
42:37You write down what happened and sign it with a lawyer present.
42:41Now, you're going to be admitting to withholding the full story.
42:44I'm going to leave it to the lawyer to explain what that might mean for you.
42:47Yeah?
42:48Bolton?
42:50No.
42:51What?
42:52I ain't doing that.
42:53You know what, Bolton?
42:54I can kind of understand why you wouldn't want it coming out before, but now...
42:58I'm not doing it.
42:59Denzel Kelly's being held in a young offenders institute.
43:02He has been charged with something he didn't do.
43:04and his best chance of getting out of there.
43:06And like I said,
43:08I never saw no gun,
43:10so I ain't signing nothing.
43:19The only one Max should be angry with is me.
43:22Oh, don't be stupid.
43:24Why is that?
43:25Why do you think?
43:27I left her in there with him.
43:29Even though she told me to go, I didn't have to.
43:32You left Maxine and Earl when she warned you to, but went back.
43:37It's too late.
43:38Earl had already lost it.
43:41If I hadn't heard of God.
43:42If you hadn't?
43:44What?
43:45Then maybe you wouldn't have killed her.
43:48Listen, Janice.
43:50We both knew Max.
43:52And we both loved her.
43:54But we also knew that
43:56that she was her own person.
43:59You were no more to blame than anybody else.
44:02If anything, that you were the one that tried to save her.
44:06You even put yourself at risk.
44:09So it should be me
44:11thanking you for being with her.
44:15She would have been so scared, but she had you.
44:21What do you mean you won't say?
44:23You're flaming well, well.
44:24Candice, that won't work
44:25unless Bolton decides to help with his own accord.
44:27Anything he says is useless.
44:28So if you want, my Denzel stays locked up.
44:31He's your mate.
44:32Make him see.
44:34Rose, we can only go with what we've got.
44:36Oh, Paul, I've spoken with your guardian
44:38and she says it's fine for me to take you to see Denzel's lawyer.
44:40Yeah, and you can take that great lump with you as well.
44:43Let him see what a coward he is.
44:44I'm not.
44:45He used to be so proud of you.
44:48Yeah, then at least the lawyer can see we're trying.
44:50Er, Rose, I'll let you know what happens.
44:53No, I need a lift.
44:54I need to see Denzel.
44:56Right.
44:58Well, is Denzel coming home or not, then?
45:02Just got a hope, yeah?
45:03Mate, come here.
45:05Mate, you best get back.
45:07Go on.
45:14I almost don't want to get me hopes up.
45:18Worst thing is, I knew.
45:19How do you mean?
45:20In my gut.
45:21That first day, I asked Den what Earl was up to.
45:26But I was thinking about something else.
45:27I was at a medium sea.
45:28Thinking about what?
45:38Call me.
45:52Come on.
45:54Come on.
45:55Say it.
45:57Hey.
45:59Hey.
46:00morning.
46:01California.
46:07Let me come on.
46:10Oh, it's okay. Mommy's here. Hey, brave man, remember? And it's not going to be for much
46:22longer, Den. There's some nice people trying to get you out. You wait and see, baby. I
46:27swear it's true. Miss Mason from the school. She'll get you home, Den. And things will
46:35be better, then. I promise. Boys, this is Miss Broward. She's Denzel's solicitor. Which
46:50one's Paul? Thanks for coming in. There are a couple of things I need to warn you about.
46:59First, when you sign your affidavit, you will be admitting withholding evidence. Second,
47:05you will be expected to explain what you say in front of a court. Unless they're
47:11persuaded that you were intimidated by Earl, you could face charges yourself. Still
47:17willing to proceed? Perhaps you could have a word. Yes, of course.
47:33What is it with you, Bolton? Hmm? Haven't you got enough people putting themselves on the line
47:38here? You and I made a deal. Do you remember? I remember. You do your best, and I support
47:46you. So why are you throwing that back in my face? And how could I have got you so wrong?
47:52What I saw in you was someone who was worth going out on a limb for, not someone who would
47:57leave an 11-year-old child scared and in a place he shouldn't be. If I knew how little
48:02you cared about anyone else, I'm not sure that I would have backed you. Your mum, Denzel,
48:08Paul, Paul, me, how many more people are you going to let down here, Bolton? What about
48:11yourself? Tell her. Tell me what? Bolton! She's going to find out that we kept quiet and
48:21now Maxine's dead. Clarkson says you're leaving. Is that because of this? What Earl did? Partly.
48:32It's not your fault. But then show me that I can be right about something. I'm sure I was
48:40right to believe in you. One condition. If I speak, then you stay. What? Well, it weren't
48:47your fault. I never fessed up because I was scared. It was because I was scared of what
48:52Bill would do to me. So, if I speak, then you stay. Deal?
49:04Well, we're out the other side with Janice anyway, and Steph. What did you tell them?
49:10Oh, it doesn't work that way. It's what they told themselves. When something random happens,
49:16it's easy to feel like you've lost control, that events are running you, not the other way.
49:20Tell me about it. With Rachel going, on top of which, I've got a wedding to plan.
49:25Oh, I thought planning a wedding would be fun. Well, if I could figure out, you know,
49:29whether to crack on or hold me horses, maybe. Well, there you go, then. You're letting
49:34it all run you. What you need is to grab control back. How do you do that?
49:38Are you serious? I don't know. All right. Work out what it is you want and go for it.
49:43Make people dance to your tune. Talking of which, I'm supposed to be at a wedding.
49:47I'll take a break. Hiya. Candice. What are you doing this afternoon?
49:55I'm waiting for our ball, and why? How about me and you stop Rachel Mason from having it
49:59all her own way for once?
50:02All right, stop that. All right.
50:07I don't care if he's in back. Get him out.
50:10Oh, Eddie Lawson, deputy at Waterloo Road. Yeah, hello, Debs. It's a bit madhead.
50:19Red air?
50:35Read it back. Anything you want to change, sing.
50:41I promise to love you, try to make things right for you, and to look after you, and
50:48to be there for you whenever you need me. My name is Bolton Smiley. On the first day
50:52of term, I was witness to a pupil at Waterloo Road carrying a gun. I promise to always try
50:56and make you happy, to be a good mother to our child.
51:00Earl wonders if we said anything, we were dead. And I promise I'll always love you.
51:05I'm ashamed I never said nothing. I want Mrs. Kelly to know we're never meant
51:08it to get this bad. I'm sorry for what I did. Signed, Bolton Henry Smiley.
51:21You do realise how proud I am of you two, don't you? Do you want to tell him?
51:31Good news, man. They reckon Denzel will get let out, you know, a lot of sight and things.
51:36And about hitting you up. Oh, mate, forget it. I barely felt it.
51:43Hey, Dante, Chloe, how did it go? Yeah, it went really well, miss.
51:45Yeah, brilliant. Thanks.
51:47Go and join them. You deserve it.
51:52I think you deserve a drink as well.
51:54Eddie, there's something I should tell you.
51:56And there's something I should tell you, too.
51:59Better still, I'll let him do it.
52:03Hey, Leon. Shall we go to your office?
52:05Why not?
52:11Right. It's the great wedding. Sort of.
52:14But we need to speak.
52:15What? While Dante's laid on his free nosh?
52:17Please, Denise, it's pretty serious.
52:21You're dumping me a summer?
52:24OK.
52:25Mrs. Smiley and Eddie were most effective.
52:27If the messages on my phone are anything to go by.
52:30I've spoken to every governor and they all want you to stay.
52:32Rachel, I said earlier that this school needs leadership.
52:35The only doubt was whether you still felt able to offer that.
52:39You've demonstrated you can.
52:42We want you to stay.
52:44So, what's it to be?
52:47I'm really sorry.
52:49You've gone to so much work.
52:51I've already made my mind up.
52:53In fact, Bolton made it up for me.
52:57I'm not going.
52:59I want to stay.
53:03If you knew about her, why not stay?
53:05I thought everyone would kick up.
53:08I was worried what you'd think.
53:10I'd think.
53:12I didn't want everyone thinking I was a coward.
53:15At least of all you.
53:18I didn't tell no one because I was all scared of him.
53:25So, like, if that's it between us then...
53:27I want you.
53:28I think there's no one.
53:30Even if it was.
53:32I've got to move on.
53:39I heard it was good news.
53:41There's another glass there if you want one.
53:42Oh, no thanks.
53:43I've got the bike.
53:44I just wanted to say bye and you know where I am.
53:47Thank you, Charlotte.
53:47Thanks for everything.
53:48No problem.
53:49Right, finish this then.
53:51Back to work.
53:52Why am I not surprised?
53:54Or...
53:54If anyone thought keeping me here was the easy option,
53:57they thought wrong because this school does need to change
53:59and I'm going to see that it happens.
54:00You won't find me arguing.
54:02Right.
54:03I've got to print something off.
54:04Oh?
54:04Something Charlotte said about making decisions for myself.
54:08Right.
54:08Night-night, then.
54:12Hiya.
54:12I thought you weren't coming.
54:14I just wanted to get something printed off.
54:16Now, you're good at this sort of thing.
54:18What's 22 degrees Celsius in old money?
54:21What?
54:22Fahrenheit.
54:22What does 22 come out as?
54:24Er, what are you on about?
54:25Average daytime temperature in Barbados this time of year.
54:27Why would I want to know that?
54:28Yes.
54:29So, you know what to pack.
54:32They've just bought us a holiday.
54:35Yeah.
54:35What?
54:36We leave the day we break up.
54:38Two weeks all in.
54:39White sand.
54:40Blue sea.
54:43Mm.
54:44I don't know what the best bit is.
54:46There's an all.
54:47They do weddings.
54:48What?
54:48You mean...
54:49What, what, this on?
54:50I just thought...
54:53If we keep worrying about what the other one wants,
54:54we'll never make a decision, so...
54:56I made one.
54:57In just over a week's time, we'll be lawfully wed.
55:06I just can't say there's a few of us over the road, if you fancy.
55:09Oh, Tom, thank you, but it's been a long day, hasn't it?
55:11Well, the offer's there.
55:12Er, well, and there's this.
55:16You would have got it sooner, but I'm strictly a one-finger person when it comes to typing.
55:20Oh, Tom.
55:21Resigning as head of pastoral care, you're really honest, you don't need to.
55:24Look, all I'm doing is jumping before I'm pushed.
55:26And whilst I'm grateful if you're just about to try and talk me out of it,
55:29we both know it's for the best.
55:31Yeah, thank you.
55:32Well, if you change your mind about coming for a drink.
55:40Can we do something?
55:42We can do whatever you want, babe.
55:45I want to move out the flat.
55:47It was really, really fun when it started, but it's just not all done.
55:51Yeah, yeah, a little bit.
55:56I've got an idea.
55:57I've lost count of these two.
55:59I think they're serial wedding fiends.
56:01Everybody get a balloon.
56:03Hey, what's going on?
56:04Just do it.
56:05This is for Maxine.
56:10I just wanted to do something for Maxine.
56:13To say goodbye.
56:15Don't know what to say.
56:17Best say nothing.
56:18Max used to puke when the all got supper.
56:21Right, has everyone got one?
56:22Yeah.
56:24Ready?
56:25Three.
56:27Two.
56:28One.
56:34Love you, Max.
56:52It horrible.
57:07One.
57:09Two.
57:09Two.
57:10Two.
57:11Two.
57:11Two.
57:12One.
57:14Two.
57:17Two.
57:20One.
