00:19I am now...
00:28Goodness.
00:33Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:38Maybe we should consider getting away before things get too messy.
00:42Yeah, cos last time we ran away from our problems, it ended really well, didn't it?
00:45Look, I'm just saying that the people Mark's involved with,
00:48they wouldn't think twice about setting fire at this gaff.
00:50That is exactly why I can't just leave him without trying to get him out of it.
00:55Please just drop it.
00:58Are you serious about going into work?
01:01DJs and caterers ain't gonna pay for themselves, are they?
01:04No.
01:05You stick in the house today. I'm not having you guarding the gaff again.
01:08If anything happens, you phone me so aware of it.
01:14Morning.
01:15Morning, mate. Thanks very much.
01:19You all right, Vic?
01:20Phil's rung me in at the gym.
01:22Pretty boys I've seen in case you wanted to take him from suit.
01:24Phil, you dropped the act.
01:26You told me that you were gonna find another way to get out of this.
01:31Kill you, Ravi.
01:33What's told me last night?
01:36Mark.
01:38This ain't you.
01:40What if it's between protecting my family or some geezer I barely know?
01:44Oh, you pick me.
01:46Yeah.
01:47What about Ravi's family?
01:50Until I prove you're sort weird, you're in danger.
01:53And I ain't having it.
02:02Ravchot Singalati.
02:03Yeah.
02:04He needs to be seen today, okay?
02:05It's urgent.
02:07Yeah, he's next to me.
02:08He says it's fine.
02:10Oh.
02:10They put me on hold.
02:16It's just me, babe.
02:19Okay.
02:20Um, yeah, yeah.
02:22That's great.
02:22That's great.
02:23Thanks.
02:25What's the point in same-day appointments if the receptionist makes you beg to get one?
02:30Well, we could go another day.
02:32Yeah.
02:32No, no, I've got you an appointment for later.
02:37Look at me.
02:40I know he's quick, but after everything that's happened this week...
02:48I'll go.
02:54Mum, I need a donkey costume for Red Nose Day.
02:56What do you need a donkey costume for for Red Nose Day?
02:58Look, can you get your shoes on, please? We'll leave them in five minutes.
03:00I will. I'll sort it.
03:02Oi!
03:03That's mine!
03:04Oh.
03:05Louis!
03:06Can you stop drawing on everything you see?
03:08This is my work stuff, yeah?
03:09Why, I got you a notepad in the first place!
03:12Sorry!
03:14What if Picasso's mum said that to him and he ended up never paying the 16th chapel?
03:19Since when were you taking backhanders from Elaine?
03:22I thought you was working for Ian.
03:23Well, bisexual, bipartisan, king that buys me.
03:26One advantage of living in the house that time forgot is finding relics everywhere.
03:30Eh?
03:32Don't have way too many pics of Brian looking at Burke and her albums.
03:36Stalker.
03:38Is this depressing vibe cos you still ain't shifted that car?
03:41I wouldn't buy anything from you of this aura you've got, Lauren.
03:45Can you just pack it in, please?
03:46Look, you've got a fit fella.
03:48Sick job.
03:49You're living the dream, Lauren!
03:52What has gotten into you today?
04:11Look...
04:11He's got a tea leaf.
04:12He's more of a giver anyway.
04:13Look, he's got his thing of being silent in the morning unless he's saying his goals out loud.
04:18You should try that with the car.
04:19Say or sell it.
04:20You will.
04:21I can shift a car without some mute hippies techniques, thank you.
04:24Do me a favour, Lauren.
04:27Smile.
04:31Double sausage on white and enough sugary pastries to make Willy Wonka jealous.
04:36Yeah, I'm starved.
04:38I'll charge extra for delivery, by the way.
04:41Um, Al.
04:43Please, we'll pay you later.
04:45He owes me for doing double duty.
04:47Oh.
04:50Julie and Yolanda want to know if we want to get food with them a bit after we've seen Nigel.
04:54Yeah, I thought you'd be too ill for that.
04:56Bill.
04:58Can I have a word?
04:59Well, can it wait?
05:02It's a tell them I'm outside, yeah. I'll be in with you in a minute, yeah?
05:07Let me guess. It's about Mark.
05:10This gang have said that if he don't find the rat, kill them today, they're gonna come after me next.
05:15Listen, he doesn't know what he's got himself into, but if he actually doesn't...
05:20I don't want to beg you for help again, but he needs to get out of this mess.
05:26Please.
05:27So, I've got Lexi to think about it, yeah?
05:29What happens if I get involved, yeah?
05:31If I get involved, then it all goes wrong.
05:32Well, what happens to Mark if you don't?
05:38Well, I'll finish here with Lex.
05:40And then I'll talk tomorrow, all right?
05:42But listen, if you don't listen, I'll try again.
05:59Sorry about the wait, Mr Galati.
06:07Who can I help today?
06:12It's just Ravi.
06:15My name.
06:17Ravi.
06:23Tell her.
06:31I bet.
06:33I bet I've been stressed for a few weeks.
06:40It ain't a big deal.
06:44He's been hurting himself.
06:46I need to hear this from Ravi.
06:50Is that how you got the facial bruising too?
07:01Look, he ain't been right for months.
07:03Okay?
07:04Shutting himself away.
07:06Getting into fights.
07:09We ain't having sex.
07:11Brilliant.
07:12Look, she needs to know, okay?
07:13You're not okay.
07:14None of this is okay.
07:17I'd like to ask you a few questions about what your partner said.
07:23Is that all right?
07:30Have you seen these?
07:31My dad won't stop banging on them.
07:33Fair play.
07:34A link could have put a lot worse on them.
07:36It's your idea, is it?
07:38Is this, Beely, what you want?
07:39Ten points for the pun.
07:41Well, you're lucky my dad ain't around this morning,
07:43because you reckon you'll be done for libel.
07:44Only if it isn't true.
07:46All's fair in love and war and local politics.
07:49Ronnie.
07:50I won't.
07:51I won't.
07:53I didn't ask for a smear campaign.
07:56I just wanted, in tone, fresh ideas.
07:59So you bring your best to our meeting this afternoon, yeah?
08:01Absolutely.
08:02I've been thinking about it all night, Elaine.
08:04Thinking, thinking, thinking all my brain.
08:07Ready to go.
08:08Good.
08:09I'm expecting great things.
08:11Sure.
08:12Yeah.
08:14Hi.
08:15Nice touch with the posters.
08:19All right then, Gilson, it sounds for fresh fruit and bread.
08:22Bannerball, come on, get all your berries, your bananas,
08:24and your broccoli from the freshest store out here.
08:27Come on, you beautiful people.
08:28Find them the Beels best bananas.
08:30Any mental illness in your family history?
08:34I don't know.
08:39And do you know which feelings drive you to self-harm?
08:48Ravi, do you have thoughts of ending your life?
09:02Okay.
09:04Thank you for sharing.
09:06I'm gonna refer you to the mental health team.
09:09At the minute, the waiting list is around eight weeks.
09:13Eight weeks?
09:15But there are other things you can do when you feel overwhelmed.
09:21Meditation, exercise.
09:22Are you joking?
09:23Look at the state of him.
09:25If you need it, the Walford crisis team can help in the MEDSA.
09:29I can give you some pamphlets.
09:31Oh, eight weeks wait for those and all.
09:32Look, I'm not joking.
09:34I bend over backwards to get you an appointment,
09:35and she's just doing labour breaths and cardio.
09:38It can help for some.
09:40I think you'd benefit from something for the anxiety
09:43and the lack of sleep you mentioned.
09:47I'll have that prescription sent over to the pharmacy on Turpin Road.
09:52Erm, could you actually send it to the one on the high street, please?
09:57I have got a few things I need to pick up.
10:05You seem like you have a strong support system around you.
10:27Your sister's been on my case.
10:31Have you spoken to anyone yet?
10:34About Ravi.
10:36Not you and all, Phil.
10:38Ravi chose to be a grass.
10:40He deserves everything he gets.
10:42When you think this won't be the only thing that you think about one day.
10:47Hey?
10:47When you're alone, blaming your old man,
10:49blaming anyone for the mess you made of everything.
10:54Tougher blokes and you and tougher bokes.
10:56And Ravi have been broken by this life.
10:58And this...
11:00This ain't you.
11:02You put the bullet in Ravi now.
11:06It's only an hour of time before someone does that thing.
11:09Or...
11:09Or you do it to yourself.
11:12Now you want my help getting out of this.
11:16You say something now.
11:18Cos I won't be offering again.
11:23Yeah.
11:26All right.
11:28I'll make some calls.
11:34It's not me, innit?
11:35Runs like a dream.
11:38Good luck, Laurie.
11:40Yeah, there's a couple.
11:41They're gonna come back later.
11:42They're just gonna think on it for a bit.
11:44That was true.
11:45The oldest one in the book, that is.
11:47Obviously, I ain't interested.
11:50Maybe it's your face that scared them off.
11:52What's that supposed to mean?
11:53Well, it wouldn't kill you, would it?
11:54Crack a smile.
11:56Look like Eeyore.
11:58And you're the face of eternal happiness, are ya?
12:00Listen, Lauren, right?
12:01I've had plenty of satisfied customers coming out of that office over the years.
12:05Shift it, yeah?
12:06Today.
12:07It's costing me money.
12:08Rust in there.
12:09Yep, it'll be gone.
12:12That doctor weren't bad in the end.
12:14After all that come-by-ass stuff.
12:17I'm sorry for waiting in earlier.
12:21Um, I'm gonna lie down.
12:24Okay?
12:24Okay.
12:25Yeah.
12:33Hey, how you been?
12:35Doctors.
12:37Well, is he all right?
12:38He just wants everything to get back to normal.
12:40Yeah.
12:46Shhh.
12:47Come here.
12:50All right, I'll see you in a bit, yeah?
12:52Yeah.
12:56Are you okay, Mum?
12:58Yeah.
13:00Yeah, I'm okay.
13:01Bye.
13:15Hey, Dad.
13:23Dad?
13:28Dad?
13:31Dad?
13:38Um...
13:42I'll, um...
13:44I'll see you later, yeah?
13:47Dad?
13:51Dad?
13:55Dad?
13:55Dad?
13:57Dad?
13:57Dad.
14:00Dad?
14:07Well, you got yourself in all right, miss, didn't you?
14:12What did you speak to? Is it sorted?
14:22Phil, is it sorted?
14:28You're not as different from the old man as you like to think you are.
14:31You know, getting yourself in trouble and putting other people in the firing line.
14:35I spoke with you, Gatha, and it's sort of like it's over.
14:41When you've been around as long as I have, you get to know where the bodies are buried.
14:45Well, you can call in a few favours.
14:47Cheers, Phil.
14:49You can start taking this place seriously and I'll...
14:52You can manage it until Shara gets back.
14:54Yeah, anything.
14:55Well, I'll cover for you this afternoon.
14:57You need to concentrate on raising some cash.
14:59You're going to need it.
15:01A few words from me only go so far.
15:04He wants 100 grand.
15:14Yeah, she's a beauty, ma'am.
15:19You okay?
15:20Yeah.
15:21Uh, Phil hasn't meant to see Nigel this week.
15:26Well, give him time.
15:30He's Nigel's best friend.
15:31He'll be there.
15:35Oh, customers?
15:37Don't worry, it's fine with him.
15:38They ain't gonna buy nothing.
15:39They're doing mate, all right?
15:40All right, ladies?
15:42Well, you know, Nigel will be chewing your ear off about this.
15:45Oh.
15:46How is he?
15:47Uh, yeah.
15:48It's good.
15:49Thanks.
15:49I went to see him earlier, the whole...
15:53Everyone's visiting him and putting their weight.
15:55Well, most people.
15:58I'll tell you what, next time we get a classic car in, I'll take you both for a spin.
16:01I'll do the driving this time now.
16:03All right.
16:04I think we could squeeze in a little sparkling water.
16:08Or something stronger.
16:10Don't you want to make your way home?
16:12Are there enough of me already today?
16:14Oh, no, no, no.
16:15Patrick's been playing dominoes with Holly for days.
16:17He won't miss me for hours.
16:18Come on.
16:24All right?
16:26You interested?
16:28Couldn't comment.
16:30You're a kept woman, ain't you?
16:32And nobody keeps me, thank you.
16:34It's Pee, your boy, know that.
16:37You raid the piggy bank to buy this place or what?
16:40Uh, worse.
16:43Made a deal with the devil.
16:47It's a nice car, though.
16:48Yeah.
16:50What's the horsepower on it?
16:51110.
16:52It's a bit low by today's standards, but it's not bad for a classic car.
16:57And also, you won't even notice, will you, when you've got the top down, the sun shining.
17:02There ain't nothing I don't know about this car.
17:05And if you buy it off me, then we'll get my dad off our backside.
17:11It's a nice motor.
17:13Let's see if a bike is as good as a bike, eh?
17:16You've got time for me to take for a test drive.
17:18Yeah?
17:18Definitely.
17:19Let me get my stuff.
17:20You ain't gonna come.
17:21I'm only going round the block.
17:23Scout's honour.
17:24Come on.
17:24Come on.
17:24It's the first thing you learn.
17:26You don't let go of the keys.
17:27All right.
17:28Well, in that case, give me 30 minutes, I'll grab my licence and come back.
17:32Of course.
17:34Ha!
17:35Oh, it's easy work, Dad.
17:40What do you have for?
17:41Phil, have you spoken to him yet?
17:43Call me.
17:45Dick.
17:47I'm getting out.
17:48I don't know what you said to Phil, but he sorted it.
17:52No-one's come in for you.
17:57Phil called in a favour.
17:59I just need some money to pay off the boss.
18:02I just need some money to pay off the boss.
18:02How much?
18:03Oh, only a couple grand.
18:05Oh, look, if I had anything that weren't tied up in the wedding...
18:07I'm not asking, okay?
18:09I'm gonna sort this myself.
18:10And after all this, I'm gonna go straight.
18:13You know, just start helping running the gym more and now.
18:18What about Ravi?
18:20He is the luckiest man alive.
18:30Ian's all about global reach.
18:33He came up with that.
18:35Global.
18:35Doesn't he get bored naming things after himself?
18:38I mean, beal this, beal that.
18:39You know what I call him?
18:41A bealend.
18:44He should be buried.
18:47Politically.
18:48Not literally, obviously.
18:50I just wanna know who he's meeting with and what's his next move.
18:54I need a scoop, darling.
18:56Yes.
18:57Oh, scoop.
18:57Ah!
18:59Doors on a latch, but then again, brothels always accept walk-ins, don't they?
19:03Do you know what?
19:03This really is too good to be true.
19:05I wish I had a journalist with me.
19:06I mean, past it to pensioner preys on vulnerable staffer from opposition.
19:10Oh, that's a bit of a mouthful of a headline, isn't it?
19:13I think you need an editor.
19:14Oh, well.
19:15Tacky posters.
19:17Plying my staff with alcohol.
19:19I mean, I'm not ashamed of my past and you spelt counsellor wrong.
19:22Oh.
19:23Who said I wrote it?
19:26Oh, you double-dipper.
19:29That's biphobic.
19:30And I wasn't even gonna tell her anything about your campaign.
19:32Then why am I wasting my best vodka and a salary?
19:35Oh, you're paying him?
19:37Oh, more for you.
19:38I mean, I was just doing it as a favour for Lauren.
19:40You're sacked.
19:40Yeah.
19:41Technically, can you be sacked from a voluntary position?
19:43Er, yeah.
19:44I'm no-one's meal ticket, darling.
19:47You're fired.
19:48I can do this on my own.
19:49Oh, really?
19:51Good luck.
19:54Oscar, darling.
19:56Get out.
20:02It's smoother than I thought.
20:04You call that a smooth drive?
20:06Leave off.
20:07We don't drive manual in America.
20:11It's a nice motor, though, isn't it?
20:13Mm-hmm.
20:15That's what the bloke said earlier as well.
20:17We did sink in.
20:20Look, I could knock off three percent, maybe even five at a push.
20:23I can't afford this car, Lauren.
20:25I'm completely skint.
20:28Right.
20:28No.
20:30So driving badly round the back ends of Orford is how you get your kicks, is it?
20:34One of many?
20:35Yeah.
20:38Look, I'm sorry, okay?
20:41I just know what it's like to have family on your back.
20:45So, I'm missing dinner for a deep and meaningful.
20:50Could buy you a sandwich.
20:52I can't afford that, if it's on offer.
20:56Go on, then.
20:58Give you a chance to check the crack on the back bumper.
21:01What crack?
21:02There ain't no crack.
21:03Reckon that'll take off more than that five percent, you're afraid.
21:10Crack.
21:20Oh!
21:21Oii!
21:21Oh!
21:21Get off me!
21:23Jesus!
21:23Get off me!
21:24I'm not here!
21:48Lauren!
21:51Are you alright?
21:56You alright? You okay? You okay? I'm here. I'm here. It's okay.
22:06Ooh!
22:10It's a wine in the afternoon and I'm cream-crackered.
22:15Lexi, you alright?
22:16Yeah, yeah, she's gone with Cam to see his brother, his wife.
22:19Oh, well, it might, er, free up a bit of time for you, eh?
22:26What do you mean?
22:27Everything that's been going on, er, Nigel's taken a, a bit of a back seat, hasn't he?
22:35Well, we could go together over the weekend.
22:37Listen, you stop going all about me going to see Nigel, yeah?
22:46You know, it's not my favourite place, either.
22:53But it's really important that he keeps to, er, a routine, you know?
22:59He sees his best mate again.
23:03He...
23:05You can't...
23:06Keep avoiding him.
23:11He needs you, Phil.
23:26Lauren, stay still.
23:27It looks worse than it feels.
23:29Stop fussing.
23:30Oh, Lauren.
23:32What happened?
23:33Just some thug lifted the car.
23:36Where were you?
23:38Lauren hadn't eaten, so I went to get her a sandwich.
23:40You called the police?
23:42Yes.
23:42Yes.
23:43Yes, they're on their way.
23:44I'm fine, by the way.
23:44Thank you for asking.
23:45Two days.
23:45Two days have been in business.
23:47Already had the car nicked.
23:49Well, at least they can't do much without the paperwork.
23:51Yeah, I...
23:53I took them with me.
23:54Lauren.
23:55I thought it was a done deal!
23:56Can you not just be grateful that she's all right?
23:57Yeah, of course I am.
23:58It says it's a 20 grand motor.
24:01You know, we're not always in here having nagey-bargy.
24:04Sometimes we do it in the pub.
24:05You should join us sometime.
24:07What's good?
24:08Well, you got what you wanted, Dad.
24:11The car's gone by the end of the day, so there you go.
24:13You win.
24:13It was a nice car, alright?
24:14It's bound to get attention.
24:17You just got unlucky, Lauren.
24:18That's all.
24:19Hopefully I'll, um, have more luck on my next test drive.
24:23I'm glad you're okay, Lauren.
24:26Thanks very much.
24:26Yeah, no worries.
24:27Thanks for stepping in.
24:29I'll get her back in one piece.
24:31It's for the cab.
24:32Cheers.
24:33See you later.
24:34See you later.
24:38Lauren, I just want the insurance out of you.
24:44Ravi?
24:46Ravi!
24:59Where have you been?
25:00I've been calling you.
25:01I went to the gym looking for you.
25:03You've been gone forever.
25:05I fancied a walk.
25:10Where are the kids?
25:12Look out, mate.
25:14I thought...
25:16I was worried.
25:18Yeah, I just wanted to...
25:20clear my head for a bit, you know?
25:24Priya, I don't want you to worry.
25:26At least I'm on my own.
25:28Yeah, yeah, I know everyone.
25:31Look, are you sure you can wait eight weeks for this referral?
25:35We can try and find the money to go private.
25:37No, no, no, no.
25:39Hey, let me try with the meds, yeah?
25:43Look.
25:44It really means a lot, you know?
25:47You're trying.
25:50I'll run you a bath, yeah?
25:55I love you.
25:57I love you.
25:59I love you.
26:29What, mate?
26:31I sorted them over, yeah?
26:33What the hell were you playing at?
26:36You weren't supposed to touch her.
26:37She got Larry.
26:39She's a live wire.
26:40When can you shift this motor, anyway?
26:42Tomorrow.
26:42My man on the other side moves quick.
26:45I'll take my cutting cash when it's there.
26:47You better hope she don't remember what you look like,
26:48or you ain't getting a call.
26:51Get out of my face now.
