00:08I can't believe you had a hand in the hijack.
00:10Hold down, Lauren.
00:13You weren't meant to get hurt, okay?
00:16Besides, you're going to collect more from the insurance than the market was worth anyway.
00:18What about the BMW?
00:20Is that stolen as well?
00:22You sold me a stolen car!
00:26Not here, come on.
00:27No, I ain't going anywhere, are you?
00:29It's all right, inside, now.
00:33Please.
00:40Look, I'm sorry, but it's true what your mum says.
00:43We are all right, can't you, aren't we?
00:45Yeah, okay, so your dad's dad, Patrick, he's like the closest thing we have to a father, so...
00:52Grandad too?
00:53I know, I'm sorry. Look, I didn't want you to find out like this.
00:56We just want you to know that, you know, you have a family.
00:59I've already got my family.
01:01I know, I came here just to find out about Jasmine.
01:04Yeah.
01:05I met them.
01:06I know, I just, I wasn't expecting mystery relatives on top of everything else.
01:10Since you're here already, how about we have a drink?
01:14Might find the answers you're looking for.
01:15Oh, and by the way, the outfit is on point.
01:20However, I could give you a few style hacks, you know, but you are already a head turner by my
01:27standards.
01:28At least you've got good taste.
01:29Yes, I do.
01:34Yeah, fine, one drink.
01:35Yeah, well, come on, Ben.
01:37No, no, no, not going there, not after just being accused of dealing drugs.
01:40Oh, no, actually, I'm not having that.
01:42Okay.
01:43I don't know if she's getting to see it, she can see it to my face.
01:45Yeah, that's why I had some wine as well.
01:47Come on.
01:47All right.
01:57Have you forgotten that my Uncle Jack is a detective?
02:00I could get you arrested, like today.
02:02Well, then you'd have to explain the text on my phone.
02:05You asking me for more cars.
02:09You wouldn't do that to me.
02:10I don't want to, Lauren.
02:12You're my cousin's missus, but I've got a business to run.
02:16And I want you to be my partner.
02:18I bring you more cars.
02:19You ask me no questions and just sell them.
02:22I'm not getting my hands dirty selling stolen cars for you.
02:25Calm down, will you?
02:26I'm the one nicking them.
02:28You've just got to put them on the lot and shift them.
02:31Well, what about the police?
02:33Because they're already asking questions about stolen cars.
02:35They're not going to suspect a tired-looking mum, are they?
02:39And if they do, you flash them the invoices
02:42and it looks like I've stitched you up.
02:46It is proper money, Lauren.
02:50You know it's my dad's name on the car lot papers, yeah?
02:53So if we get caught, then he is going down with us.
02:56We're not getting caught.
02:57I don't make stupid mistakes.
03:07Peter?
03:09Oh, she's there now.
03:11All right.
03:12Yeah.
03:13Bye.
03:15I've got a guy.
03:16Is everything okay?
03:17Yeah, we're just meeting this lady about a nursery
03:19that we really need Jimmy to go to.
03:21And how are you going to pay for that?
03:23Look, why don't you give me a proper answer later tonight, yeah?
03:28And I hope this nursery is a good fit for your boy.
03:44Yeah.
03:46Yeah.
03:48No, it's fine.
03:50All right.
03:51But I'm not.
03:53You all right?
03:54Is that honey?
03:56It's nothing.
03:58I was just hoping I could talk to her about this trip at the college.
04:02I was thinking maybe she could ask Dad to put a bit towards it,
04:05but she's got to make dinner for Aunt Caroline.
04:08Sweet hot.
04:09You know what your mum's like.
04:10Always looking out for everyone.
04:12Look, these should cheer you up.
04:15Star perks.
04:17Mad.
04:21Tell you what, why don't we do something together?
04:24The gaming aquarium's at Container Junction, yeah?
04:27Wouldn't your shift have just started?
04:29Well, it's only the induction.
04:31I'll be done in a minute.
04:33Unless you're too cool to be seen with me, that is.
04:40Okay.
04:41Well, great.
04:42I'll finish up and then we'll go, yeah?
04:49And a hairdresser too.
04:51Good cheer.
04:52I mean, I've always wanted to be an astronaut,
04:54but I'm still waiting for the call from NASA.
04:57Apparently, being sick of a blow-dry doesn't quite cut it.
05:01No.
05:02No.
05:03Okay.
05:03I see what you're doing there.
05:04It's money.
05:05It's money.
05:06But you might want to rein it in really around me.
05:09Oh, God.
05:10Catch your breath for a little bit.
05:11I'm sure.
05:12Hey, I mean, if it helps, pretend I didn't notice.
05:15Yeah, okay, we'll do that.
05:16Okay.
05:20So, um, Jasmine, I'd like to go and see her.
05:26I just need to know what really happened.
05:29She hung up on me last time I called.
05:32The article said she claimed self-defense.
05:35What was just a claim, innit?
05:38Did Anthony know that she was his daughter when he did that?
05:42To be honest with you, it's kind of tough for us to talk about Jasmine.
05:53But we could introduce you to Zoe, your mum.
05:57She just lives across the square.
05:59And she might give you more detail.
06:03It's just, I've been in her shoes.
06:06I gave my boy up.
06:09And getting him back weren't easy.
06:12And I really think that she'd like to meet you.
06:14Listen, listen.
06:15Thank you so much for this.
06:16And this.
06:18The ambience is lovely, but the Zoe thing is a bit much.
06:20I'm done.
06:21Sorry.
06:22Yeah.
06:22Yes.
06:23Well, thanks for everything.
06:25It's been, um, it's been quite a day.
06:27I mean, in a good way.
06:29You know, but it's a trek home and we don't want to push it with the trains.
06:32Oh, can you please take my number, Mum?
06:35Oh, please.
06:37Oh, yeah, here.
06:38Look, um, just be gentle because the screen's a bit dodgy.
06:42Oh, OK.
06:42Sorry.
06:44Um, yes, yeah.
06:49Bye.
06:56The Zoe thing was a really lovely touch, you know.
06:59It wasn't over the top at all.
07:01It was...
07:02It was perfect.
07:03Oh, well, that's a bit rich.
07:06Just try out here.
07:08And now we've lost him.
07:10Bravo.
07:13There's just one explanation for it.
07:15It's Penny.
07:16Oh, you don't know that for sure.
07:18Eve, she's been in his ear dripping poison
07:20and now he's hiding things from his own mum.
07:24So, Kate, don't do anything, OK?
07:26Not now.
07:27I'm not going on her account.
07:28Right.
07:29I'm going to go to the loo and when I come back,
07:31we are going, OK?
07:33Well, you already owe me a hundred,
07:35so let's just...
07:36Just make a little list.
07:37And you go, I owe you, and I go, I owe you.
07:39But I don't want it to be any bigger than it is.
07:40Don't worry about it.
07:41I'm going to do it.
07:41OK.
07:42Evening, Penny.
07:43Gina.
07:44Hiya.
07:44Hi, Suki.
07:45Looking well.
07:47And spending a lot of time with my son lately, I hear.
07:50Young man, business of his own.
07:52Nice home.
07:54Money coming in.
07:55What's not to like, eh?
07:59How long did you think you could keep this pregnancy a secret for?
08:03Till Vinnie started shelling out for your pram,
08:05your cot,
08:06your fancy baby clothes for your little investment?
08:09Suki, if you're done accusing me of cold-digging,
08:11I'd like to enjoy my evening.
08:25You should see him with his toys.
08:26He knows where everything is.
08:27Oh, just like this one.
08:28Can you tell when you're stealing biscuits as well?
08:30Because that seems to be his speciality at a minute, doesn't it?
08:32Oh, Arlo picks up everything.
08:35The nursery's helped loads.
08:37First week, he kept reaching out for me every minute.
08:40But now, he'll hear a sound game
08:42and he just launches himself in like he owns the place.
08:45Oi, everyone, I'm here.
08:48See, that's what Jimmy needs.
08:50I just keep thinking, as he grows
08:52and he spends more time away from us,
08:54it's his safety, you know?
08:56People just leaving things about and that.
08:59I mean, he can't see us.
09:02He won't be able to see the nursery staff.
09:04What if he gets scared?
09:06He was born blind, yeah?
09:09And this is his normal.
09:11Like Arlo.
09:12I mean, it doesn't mean it's easy,
09:13but Arlo's not walking around thinking,
09:15I'm afraid.
09:17That's us.
09:18That makes sense, doesn't it?
09:21Did you know you always wanted to go to the specialist space?
09:24Well, we looked at some mainstream nurseries too.
09:26They were lovely,
09:27but we visited this nursery
09:30and as soon as Arlo heard the worker
09:32narrating the room softly,
09:34he just huddled towards her voice.
09:36That's when I knew he was going to be OK there.
09:39That is so sweet.
09:41I bet it cost a lot, though.
09:43We got lucky.
09:45DLA, decent wages and a bit of savings.
09:47We get by.
09:48My mum helps out too,
09:50but we are counting down
09:52until he's in full-time proper school.
09:55Well, then you don't have to pay at all.
09:56Exactly.
09:57And listen, there's no right answer.
10:01Mainstream, specialist.
10:03You do whatever feels right for Jimmy and your family.
10:07That's true.
10:08But it's bedtime for this little man.
10:11If you've got any other questions,
10:12just give me a shout, all right?
10:14Thank you so much for stopping by so late.
10:21We've got to find a way.
10:23Mm-hm.
10:27I want to see the state of the gaff.
10:29I mean, she's like a one-woman army.
10:32It's sparkling.
10:34It's gleaming, and there's fresh flowers everywhere.
10:36Right.
10:37So she's proper moved in there.
10:38No, she's just opening up while Annie's away.
10:40You know what I mean?
10:42Yeah.
10:43That's her.
10:45Bringing the kids back from the gaming grounds.
10:47She made herself right at home, didn't she?
10:49Yeah.
10:50She's turning any harm, is it?
10:51No, no, I didn't say she is.
10:52You know, maybe she's just grateful for you
10:55when Honey helped with her out, aren't I?
10:57Thanks.
10:59But, uh...
11:00Hopefully she don't get so comfy
11:01you need a crowbar to shift her later.
11:04You know what I mean?
11:06Anyway, thanks for the pint, Bill.
11:07It's good to have you back, mate.
11:08Hey, hey, hey, hey.
11:09Cheers.
11:10Good to be back.
11:12Oh, it was so much fun.
11:15Especially lovely having the company of you two.
11:17It's all right.
11:18You can take that whenever you want.
11:20Especially if you're paying.
11:21Oh, charming.
11:22One little treat and now I'm your personal bank, am I?
11:24We're ain't greedy.
11:26Only for milkshake games and popcorn.
11:28Ooh, popcorn.
11:29Now there's a little wolf.
11:31What about sweet, salty,
11:33or the work's sweet and salty?
11:35If it makes you happy.
11:36Come on, let's go.
11:39But what else could I have done?
11:41Oh, I don't know.
11:42Maybe not going so strong.
11:44I mean, the man came for a drink
11:45and you gave him warfare's edition of
11:47This Is Your Life.
11:48Says the one who made Sandra tell him who he were.
11:50Oh, I'm sorry I didn't let his mum lie to him.
11:52Because some of us have got some morals.
11:54You know what I mean?
11:55Oh.
11:59But you know what?
12:00Sandra would be all right.
12:01Once she's had a kip and a cup of tea,
12:03she'll realise that you weren't trying to, you know,
12:06start any drama by telling him about Zoe.
12:08I hope so.
12:09Because I could do it with that myself.
12:11What a day.
12:13Mate.
12:14I'm brilliant.
12:15And don't say nothing about Josh.
12:17Just act normal.
12:18What?
12:19Do you know what normal is?
12:20Don't do a normal.
12:21Hey, hi.
12:22Look who it is, eh?
12:25How can you land it out on the town?
12:27Yeah.
12:29It's just us doing us living our best life.
12:32Yeah, innit?
12:32Let's get a refill.
12:35That's parched.
12:37All right, um.
12:39Which one are you going to tell me what's going on?
12:42Nothing's going on.
12:44No, nothing's going on.
12:45It's just, you know, two ladies with two coffees.
12:48And one coffee, because, you know, I've finished mine.
12:50That was Denise.
12:51Hmm?
12:53Oh.
12:54Forget it.
12:55Listen, Oman.
12:56I know when Ollie are carrying something, he don't know.
12:59Come on, talk to me.
13:04Patrick, we, um...
13:08We met someone today.
13:11Josh.
13:14Anthony's son.
13:22So there I am, like, trying to be civil,
13:24and she's basically calling me a chancer.
13:26Vinny's going to have to handle her, because...
13:31Go on, then.
13:32What's on your mind?
13:34No, nothing.
13:38All right.
13:41Let's just say, er, you were offered a little bit of side work.
13:45No quick cash, nothing violent, no-one would get hurt.
13:48On a scale of dodgy to doing time, how bad are we talking?
13:52It's definitely bending a few rules.
13:55But I'd be able to get the cash together for Jimmy's nursery.
13:58What's the gig?
13:59Well, I don't even know if I'm going to do it yet.
14:01I'm just...
14:01I'm just thinking out loud.
14:04Okay, fine.
14:08Thirsty?
14:11Yeah, water, please.
14:13And, um, yeah.
14:15If it meant putting food on the table,
14:17or a roof over my kid's head,
14:19I'd do it.
14:36This will keep you going for about a week.
14:39It's like rocket fuel.
14:40You are a diamond, Vic.
14:44I've been working myself stupid.
14:46But I do have a couple of new streams of income on the horizon.
14:51As long as it's all above board, yeah?
14:53Of course.
14:54You know I'm done with that lot.
14:56I've got something lined up,
14:57and if it lands,
14:59I can start paying back what I owe.
15:01And then clean slate.
15:03Well, good.
15:05Because I like this version of you better.
15:08I do need to get some sleep, though.
15:10Those bags are bad.
15:12Thank you for that.
15:13And I will, after my meeting.
15:15What, you got a meeting tonight?
15:18Some of the best deals are struck by moonlight.
15:20Sounds like a vampire boxing tournament.
15:23Knock them dead, then.
15:25Or a lie.
15:27Why are you so weird?
15:30See you later.
15:31Thanks for the coffee.
15:32Thanks for the coffee.
15:38Patrick, you all right?
15:41Sorry I made him run off.
15:43I didn't mean to.
15:44What, um...
15:46What was the boy like?
15:49Like, um...
15:50Anthony at all?
15:54He's a sharp dresser.
15:56He got that from you, obviously.
16:00Well, it must have been hard on him.
16:02True.
16:04It's the last link I had with Antonian.
16:08And now he ran off.
16:11In time.
16:13He may come back.
16:16Time, Yolandi.
16:19It's not what it used to be.
16:22Maybe it's for the better.
16:24He has his own life.
16:30Hello?
16:32Sandra?
16:36And they've got all of this sensory stuff,
16:38like, er, toys made from natural materials,
16:40like wood and cloth and all of that.
16:42And it's meant to be really good for blind kids.
16:44What's this?
16:46Oh, just another pitch for family support,
16:48like when you want to throw in for the car lot.
16:50Right, anyway,
16:52the doorways and the staircases,
16:53they're lined with this texture
16:55that Jimmy will enjoy trailing
16:56when he's learning to walk as well.
16:57Okay, well,
16:58what's wrong with a regular nursery?
17:00They don't have to staff all the money
17:02to give him exactly what he needs.
17:04It's designed specifically for kids like Jimmy,
17:06and it's the best one we've found so far.
17:09Yeah, but have you seen the fees?
17:10I mean, no,
17:11it's daylight robbery.
17:12I mean,
17:13it's just a nursery.
17:14A specialist one.
17:15Still criminal.
17:16Er, look,
17:17from my point of view,
17:18buying the car lot
17:18has probably put me in a bit of a tight spot,
17:20so,
17:22erm,
17:22I'll definitely contribute.
17:23I don't know if it'll be every month,
17:24but, erm,
17:26look,
17:26I'll do what I can.
17:27Yeah, look,
17:27I'm the same.
17:28I'll contribute.
17:29Yeah.
17:29Things are a bit tight at the minute,
17:30what with Penny expecting in long day,
17:32so,
17:33if I can.
17:35Yeah,
17:36and it's not cheap
17:36running all businesses
17:38and the home,
17:39but, erm,
17:40yeah,
17:41I'll throw in a few quid.
17:43I mean,
17:43every little bit of help.
17:45Yeah,
17:45and Lauren's made a sale
17:46at the car lot today,
17:47and I'm sure there'll be plenty more to come.
17:49It's going to help,
17:50isn't it?
17:51Yeah.
17:51Thanks.
17:52Oh,
17:53we'll try out this.
17:54Here's to her,
17:55here's to Jimmy.
17:56Actually,
17:56no.
17:58Here's to you two.
17:59Like,
17:59doing what good parents do,
18:01tightening your belts,
18:02counting the pennies,
18:03and,
18:05that's the job,
18:06isn't it?
18:06Just crack on.
18:09Cheers.
18:10Well done.
18:23Oh,
18:23you all right, Dad?
18:24Yeah.
18:25Yeah.
18:27Thanks for taking them out,
18:28but I owe you one for that.
18:29Oh,
18:30nonsense.
18:31There's the least I can do.
18:33You've got to try something less, Dad.
18:36sweet and salty.
18:37It's how honey likes it.
18:41Yeah,
18:42I'll,
18:43I'll try to show me a bit.
18:46Ooh.
18:52Hey,
18:53come in.
18:54Come in.
18:54Bye.
18:55Thanks for having us.
18:56Yeah.
18:56We didn't think you'd fancy
18:58seeing us after all that.
19:00Oh,
19:00no,
19:01I'm sorry.
19:01Look,

19:04It was just a lot for Josh to take in earlier.
19:07Well,

19:08really.
19:09And we were chatting on the way home,
19:11and,
19:12well,
19:12we both thought we're never going to sleep unless,
19:15you know,
19:16it's been a decade since you last seen her.
19:19Well.

19:46No fuss.
19:46Water will do,
19:47you know.
19:47You can't be here for a banquet.
19:49Well,
19:49a few cups of tea.
19:50I mean,
19:50it's hardly a banquet.
19:52I'm just sure we had some.
19:53Josh,
19:53did you finish all those herbal ones?
19:55I mean,
19:55usually we've got a lot more in,
19:57you know,
19:57what's everything going on with your gran.
19:58Honestly,
19:59honestly,
19:59I'd rather water anyway.
20:01Any caffeine this late?
20:03Just be up all night.
20:06Yeah,
20:07the windows are all jammed,
20:08so it gets a bit tropical in here.
20:10Oh,
20:10okay.
20:10Yeah,
20:10the landlord,
20:11you've just been messing us around,
20:13you know.
20:14But soon,
20:14it's not going to be our problem.
20:17Because we are moving to Southend,
20:20just to be nearer my mum.
20:22Yay.
20:23Oh,
20:24yeah,
20:24he's thrilled about it,
20:25honestly.
20:25Yeah.
20:26Love stopping my entire life for fresh sea air in a new town where I've got no mates.
20:30So,
20:31wait,
20:32you're moving?
20:35Like,
20:35properly?
20:37Yeah.
20:42Louie's out for the count.
20:44Jimmy.
20:46Jimmy's testing me.
20:49He's a proper big boy,
20:50isn't he?
20:52I can't believe he's already grown past this.
20:54I feel like every time I blink,
20:55he's having a growth spurt.
20:57Shame our bank balance ain't doing the same.
21:01Listen,
21:01I've just got a phone to my dad,
21:02and he's...
21:03Has he changed his mind?
21:04He doesn't want to help us?
21:05Oh,
21:06proper rare sunshine,
21:07you,
21:07ain't you?
21:08No.
21:09No,
21:10I told him I'm going to put the word out in the chippy,
21:12and everywhere,
21:12really,
21:12but I'm going to...
21:14I'm going to jump back into personal training,
21:16evening sessions,
21:17couple nights a week.
21:20Where are you going to see the kids?
21:22Or sleep?
21:24Or breathe,
21:25Peter?
21:25Don't say that.
21:26I'll do anything for Jimmy and Louie.
21:27And you.
21:29In my family,
21:30I'll do whatever it takes.
21:31I've got to.
21:32No.
21:33I want to.
21:36You're the best man I know.
21:38Do you know that?
21:38I do,
21:39yeah.
21:39Well,
21:40I'll remind you that next time I leave my socks on the floor,
21:42though,
21:42yeah?
21:46Got to go.
21:47I've got to go.
21:47Oh,
21:48come on.
21:49Look,
21:49I need to get some nappies for Jimmy,
21:51but I'll be back.
21:52I'll be back soon,
21:53I promise.
21:55Okay.
21:56I'll go jet to see if Jimmy's given up yet.
21:58Yeah,
21:59you do that.
22:15Hi,
22:15Mum.
22:16Vinnie.
22:18How's Eve?
22:21Jack Browning told me news I should have gotten from my own son.
22:24And Penny's confirmed it.
22:29I tried to tell you earlier,
22:30but you wouldn't let me get a word in.
22:32This baby.
22:34Was it planned?
22:36No.
22:37It wasn't.
22:38But we're stepping up to it.
22:39Oh,
22:39Vinnie,
22:40Vinnie,
22:40how can you be so foolish?
22:41Come on.
22:42Look,
22:42you know,
22:42I know what happens when people rush these things.
22:44One bad decision leads to another,
22:46and before you know it,
22:47you've got social services at your door,
22:49and another kid in the system.
22:51Please stop talking to me like I'm a child.
22:53Vinnie,
22:53you are my child.
22:55All right?
22:56And I'm only trying to protect you.
22:58No,
22:59you're trying to control me.
23:01You did it with Ash,
23:02Jacks,
23:03everyone,
23:03even Avani.
23:04You take over everything
23:07until no one,
23:08no one can breathe.
23:10Just be happy for me,
23:12Mum.
23:15Why is that so hard?
23:26And Patrick was over the moon to know you exist.
23:30You should have seen his face.
23:32Yeah.
23:32Yeah.
23:34And, um,
23:35about Zoe.
23:36Sorry.
23:37Can we not?
23:38It's...
23:38I'm not being funny.
23:39I'm sure she's lovely,
23:41but...
23:43To be honest,
23:44one intense mum is enough.
23:45And I'm not holding brief for her,
23:48I promise.
23:49I mean, like I say,
23:50I've been in her shoes,
23:51you know?
23:51You said...
23:53But it's Jasmine I'd like to hear about.
23:55I mean,
23:56she's my twin,
23:58and it's been...
24:01Last time we saw each other,
24:04we were eight.
24:06Eight.
24:07So, please,
24:08whatever you can tell me
24:10to help me know her,
24:11and understand everything
24:13that happened
24:13with
24:14our dad.
24:18OK.
24:21Fine, we'll, you know,
24:23ask away.
24:24We'll do our best.
24:26Yeah.
24:28Do you know what?
24:29You can have the last teabag.
24:30Oh!
24:31Oh, I win the teabag.
24:33Thanks, Mum.
24:46Here she is.
24:47Never met a tough nut I couldn't crack.
24:50She'll bottle it and sell it.
24:51You done congratulating yourself?
24:53Or do you want a mirror to kiss and all?
24:55Thanks.
24:56Welcome, partner.
24:57Parker.
24:59You wish.
25:02Did you forget about a text?
25:04Someone asking for more cars?
25:06Oh, shut up.
25:08Do you know what?
25:09Just, just...
25:10frame the text and stick it on you all.
25:12Whatever.
25:13Whatever.
25:13I've got a husband
25:14that would break his own back
25:16for me and my boys.
25:18I'm not going to ruin that
25:19just for you
25:19and some dodgy deals.
25:21What, Lauren?
25:22You're going to gross me up.
25:23You're going to go run into Uncle Jack.
25:26I do not want to be dragged down with you.
25:29The car's been found.
25:31So, as far as I'm concerned,
25:33it's the end of that.
25:35From now on,
25:36just stay away from me
25:36and my family.
25:37You're going to change your mind.
25:39I wouldn't bet a tenner on that
25:40if I were you.
25:41And when you do,
25:43you know where to find me.
