00:03MUSIC
00:26OK.
00:28Can I get you coffee or something?
00:30No, Tara, I've got to go. Bye.
00:34I saw Becky.
00:42And?
00:44She's going to drag me down with her.
00:45She's not. Nobody would believe you were involved.
00:48That's what I said, but honestly...
00:50I think she'll do it. I think she'll lie.
00:53She'll say that I knew where the money came from
00:55and that I knew that we couldn't afford the kind of holidays that we had
00:58and even the mortgage.
00:59And in case you were wondering, I didn't.
01:01I wasn't.
01:02Surely she wouldn't do that to Betsy.
01:04I mean, if you go down, then what then?
01:06Who knows what goes on inside a warped little mind, eh?
01:09But she's already lost us, hasn't she?
01:11And I guess she doesn't want us to...
01:14to have a happy ever after.
01:15Yeah.
01:16Especially me.
01:17OK, I've got to go.
01:19Look, Carla...
01:27If she does what she says, if I'm arrested,
01:31would you make sure that Betsy's OK?
01:33I mean, I'm sorry to put that on you, but...
01:37I've got no-one else to ask.
01:41That I trust.
01:43Yeah?
01:45Of course.
01:58If I had another sibling, God forbid, but, you know,
02:02you'd have heard about it.
02:03I'd have told you.
02:04I'd have mentioned it.
02:05Half sibling.
02:07Well, same thing.
02:08You know what I mean.
02:08Right, well, we can't all be like your family can.
02:10We're living in each other's pockets every day.
02:15Oh, I'm sorry.
02:16I'm sorry.
02:17I'm just...
02:18I'm tired.
02:21But...
02:21I left home.
02:23Life happened.
02:25Well, then, maybe it's fate.
02:27The universe throwing you both back together again.
02:31You don't believe a word that you just said, do you?
02:33Well, no, I don't, no.
02:34But, I mean, you've got to admit, it is weird, innit?
02:36Mm.
02:40Speak at now.
02:41Hi.
02:42I hope you don't mind.
02:43No.
02:44No, we don't.
02:44Come in.
02:47Thought you might like some decent food.
02:49Don't worry, it's not something I made.
02:55Ooh!
02:55Hob nobs.
02:56Nice.
02:57So, how's the baby?
02:59Oh, you know, yeah.
03:01Getting there, aren't we?
03:03Look, Jodie, like I said before, I just...
03:05I really can't do us right now.
03:09No, no, I get it.
03:11Why don't you give me your number?
03:13And, erm, when everything just settles down...
03:17Yeah, if you want to put it in there.
03:21I just...
03:25I can't help thinking there's a reason I found you again.
03:28Like, I don't know.
03:29Like, the universe bringing us together all summer.
03:33When I saw you in the hospital and the nurse said
03:35you'd been in that crash and all, it was...
03:37I don't know.
03:38Hang on.
03:38You...
03:39You were in the crash as well?
03:43That's a coincidence, right?
03:49Yeah, well...
03:50You've got my number now.
03:51Yeah.
04:03Cheers, Sean.
04:04How are you, Kate?
04:06So the hearing's today, then?
04:07Yeah.
04:08That's good, though.
04:09Cos then you and your mum, you know, Lisa, you're not the bent mum,
04:13you'll be able to get on with your lives.
04:15How are her?
04:16Carla and Lisa.
04:17Well, let's stay positive, eh?
04:20Mrs Conner, you're back?
04:22Aye, I am. Aye.
04:23Oh, we've gained a new employee.
04:25Oh, no, I'm just going.
04:26OK.
04:26Erm, Kirk, don't forget Liam will have the tickets, yeah?
04:29Thanks for taking me.
04:29No problems. Up the county.
04:32You OK?
04:34Yeah. Yeah.
04:35Well, speed, Liz. Yeah.
04:38You all right? Can I just, erm...
04:40Oh, yeah.
04:41Come on, troops.
04:48Are you here?
04:50Yeah.
04:52How's your mum?
04:53I don't know, er, she left before I was up this morning, so...
04:58Why?
04:58Oh, no, no reason, I just, erm...
05:02I saw her earlier, she was just a little bit worried about the hearing, so...
05:05Yeah, she's not the only one.
05:08Listen, erm, I didn't get much sleep last night, do you mind if I...
05:12No.
05:13Of course.
05:14I will make up the time.
05:16OK.
05:22Come on, Rhys, spit it out.
05:24OK.
05:25Short version.
05:26Yes.
05:27Carl's been creaming money off the business account.
05:30Oh!
05:31Don't be daft.
05:32I've seen the invoices, all right?
05:34He's been ordering in cheap goods, but the budget stayed the same.
05:36So, I mean, it's pretty obvious to me...
05:39Cavalry's here.
05:40How are we doing, team?
05:42Oh, I'm just telling Debbie about a few discrepancies I found in the budget.
05:46You know, just some invoices that don't quite tally.
05:49Well, you should have come to me with it and not bother my sister.
05:53I can show you, if you like.
05:56Oh, no, hang on, no, I know what he's talking about.
05:59It's...
06:00The thing is, with everything that's been going on, I just...
06:02I haven't had time to do the paperwork.
06:04Update the budget.
06:06Sorry, mate.
06:08Listen, mate.
06:09We'll sort this out later, yeah?
06:12I promise you.
06:12We just haven't got time for it right now.
06:14What?
06:15No problem.
06:17Come and help me move these chairs.
06:21Have you had your hand in till again?
06:24No!
06:25Deb, you're my big sis.
06:27Why would I risk losing the most important person in my life?
06:32Okay.
06:33Come on.
06:45Oi!
06:49You better have a good reason for not being in school.
06:51Well, for one, there's still a time.
06:53And the reason I pay for your school dinner is so you don't come home bothering me.
06:55I just wanted out.
06:57Can you believe that idiot, Daniel Osborne, giving me detention?
06:59What for?
07:00That's the thing, nothing.
07:01He just picks on me.
07:03Seriously?
07:03What for?
07:04Right, well, the group of us were talking at the back of the class,
07:06and he only picks on me.
07:09You really didn't have to do this, you know?
07:11Are you kidding me?
07:12I saw the way he wrapped that shoulder bag for Judas leaving present.
07:15I'll go and ask him, shall I?
07:16Well, he's not going to admit it, is he?
07:18Seriously, son, if you really think there's a problem...
07:19Would you just drop it, would you?
07:21Right.
07:44You all right?
07:45Yeah.
07:46What's happened?
07:48Right, just breathe, slowly.
07:55OK.
07:56Can you stand?
07:57Do you want...
07:58Just come with me.
07:59OK.
08:00That's it.
08:02All right.
08:03Just lean on me.
08:19It's so good to see you.
08:22How are you?
08:26I've got my plate hearing in a bit.
08:31Please don't look at me like that.
08:33Why are you playing the victim?
08:35All I ever wanted was a better life for us.
08:38For all of us.
08:39Yeah, come on.
08:40Mason died because of you.
08:43Because he was trying to find out who killed you.
08:47I loved him and he died.
08:48I had nothing to do with that.
08:49You're not the victim.
08:50He is.
08:52I am.
08:55Carla sussed you out.
08:57To she had to go.
09:00You actually kidnapped a person who does that.
09:02And now you want to punish my mum.
09:04Yeah, I'm your mum too.
09:05Oh.
09:07No, you're not.
09:09You're nothing to me.
09:11Don't say that.
09:12And you lie.
09:14About my mum being as corrupt as you and why.
09:17Just because you can't stand the thought of her being with Carla.
09:19Right.
09:20So that's why you're here.
09:21What about me?
09:25You get a put away.
09:26Out of spite.
09:27And not even think about what it would do to me.
09:29But then again, you never have.
09:31Do you think I planned everything that happened?
09:34I was an idiot, yeah.
09:36But I never meant for things to turn out the way they did, I swear.
09:38I just...
09:39I'm not a stupid little kid that you can manipulate.
09:42Not anymore.
09:44Because I had to grow up.
09:46Because when you realise you're so unlovable
09:48that your own parent could just walk away,
09:51took money to walk away...
09:52Not true.
09:53I wish you'd just...
09:55I'm done.
09:58I am done.
10:01And do you know what I wish?
10:05I wish you had died.
10:08Just like Mason did.
10:28I wish you had died.
10:30All right, too.
10:31Come in.
10:31Mm.
10:35What are you feeling?
10:38Like an idiot.
10:41I've just said what the thing happened.
10:44It was likely a panic attack.
10:46Mm.
10:49I've been thinking of...
10:51hanging up my hairdressing scissors
10:52and getting myself a pair of them scrubs on my hair that much.
10:55Is that what you do?
10:57Hairdressing?
10:58Yeah.
10:59Don't judge me.
11:00Oh, no, I was, erm...
11:02I was more thinking cheap haircuts, to be honest.
11:07Was it because of that accident?
11:09Your attack?
11:12Um...
11:13Yeah, maybe.
11:14I still think that's my mind to know.
11:18You and Shona, both involved in the same crash.
11:21I mean...
11:22Listen, I, erm...
11:24Thanks for...
11:25You know, but...
11:26If you...
11:27If you need to be getting back to Shona, I, erm...
11:31Yeah, I understand.
11:32I...
11:33I just, I don't really like talking about it.
11:35Oh!
11:36Yeah, yeah, yeah.
11:37No, of course.
11:38Sorry.
11:42Erm...
11:42Do you want me to ring someone for you?
11:44Get you picked up?
11:44Oh, honestly, it's fine.
11:46Well, what will you do?
11:47Well, I'll check in with the local shelter.
11:49I'll see if they've got a space for tonight.
11:52If they have, I'll get a cab.
11:55What if they haven't?
11:57Try something else.
11:58Worst comes to worst, I'll just get them to take pity on me here again.
12:00Well, I mean, that might work for tonight.
12:02What about tomorrow?
12:07No.
12:09Can't be doing that.
12:12I mean, we've got a spare room at heart.
12:14I mean, it's my son's, but he's not there.
12:17He's away.
12:18That's...
12:19That's really nice of you, but...
12:21No, it's just until, you know, you find somewhere else.
12:23Don't you think you should, erm...
12:25Check with Shona first?
12:28No.
12:28No.
12:29No.
12:30I mean, she's got enough home with Harper, hasn't she?
12:33So...
12:33It'll be fine.
12:34I'll tell her tomorrow.
12:36Right?
12:37Er...
12:38I mean, if you're sure...
12:39Yeah.
12:40I'd be really grateful.
12:43It's what family's for, innit?
12:50Thanks for doing this.
12:52It's probably the last thing you wanted to do after a full day at school.
12:55My pleasure.
12:58Hey, I'm having a nightmare at the minute with Will.
13:02I don't know whether it's the school in general, or me in particular, that he hates, but...
13:07Mmm.
13:08I suspect he's just feeling a bit insecure.
13:12Adjusting to a new school, it's...
13:13Him and some of the other lads were messing about the other day.
13:16So I gave him detention.
13:19Him, not them.
13:20Well, he was the ringleader.
13:23He's probably just trying to fit in.
13:26Can't be easy.
13:27No.
13:29Yeah, you're right.
13:31Of course I am.
13:36Don't suppose you fancy coming to Bertie's birthday party, do you?
13:41No.
13:41What am I saying?
13:42It's a family tea for a kid's birthday.
13:45And it's my family, so...
13:46No, just forget that I said anything.
13:48I was wondering how many hints a girl would have to drop.
13:51That cake looks delicious.
13:53I love pasta parcel, me.
13:55I've always wanted to whack a piñata.
14:00So, do I need an official invite, or...?
14:03No.
14:05You're good.
14:08You need to get her on her own.
14:11Don't know.
14:11She's got enough going on with this play ring coming up, it's...
14:14Oh, don't stop her, Mike, eh?
14:17Ah, I should go.
14:18Look.
14:19This hearing, please tell me you're not going to cover for him.
14:23You can't, for pity's sake.
14:25He's got you lying, he's ripping you off.
14:28Look, I know you want revenge on Carl because of...
14:30Look, it's not about revenge.
14:32No?
14:32It's getting you to open your eyes and see him for what he is.
14:35A liar, a thief, and probably worse besides.
14:40The fella's a sociopath, and if you think you're...
14:42Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!
14:47You can try and turn me against him all you like,
14:50but don't force me to choose between you and him.
14:53Because you won't like the outcome.
15:13Yeah? Seems fine.
15:14It's the last room on the left as you go up.
15:17There's bathrooms and everything up there,
15:19but there's, erm, tea and coffee just here,
15:22you know, if you want to help yourself.
15:24Yeah. Oh, thanks.
15:25Yeah.
15:26Er, I'm going to get off back to the hospital now
15:28and just check on Sharon.
15:29Right, OK, OK.
15:30But I'll be back later.
15:31OK, thanks.
15:32See ya.
15:33Yeah.
15:34Yeah.
16:02You all right?
16:04Yeah.
16:33No.
16:34Not really.
16:34Mm.
16:36Do you want to come back to mine?
16:39I mean, it's probably a mess.
16:40I don't have to put Bertie to bed.
16:42Wow, this is getting better by the second, isn't it?
16:44How about we have a bowl of red and leftover chicken nuggets?
16:56Mmm.
16:57I'm not big on nuggets.
16:58Homemade.
16:59Is Jamie over?
17:00Oh, I do love Jamie.
17:01Bless him.
17:03Tell you what.
17:04Why don't you go and sort Bertie out
17:07and I'll go to the shop and get us a bottle of wine, eh?
17:10Sounds good.
17:12White with nuggets, yeah?
17:13Oh, yeah.
17:14Of course.
17:15We're not savages, are we?
17:25Hello?
17:29I thought I told you not to call me again.
17:32Of course I meant it.
17:35Please, will you just let it go?
17:38No, no, no, no, no.
17:39That wouldn't be a good idea for either of us.
17:44Please.
17:44You just leave me alone, okay?
17:54Oh, God.
17:55Staying me from your ward ceremonies.
17:57All that back snapping through gritted teeth.
17:59I know you want to see me, Mum,
18:01but can I just say something about the case?
18:04The thing is, I'm afraid Becky's going to lie at the hearing
18:07and try to frame me.
18:08But I swear to you,
18:09everything I said in my statement is the truth.
18:11I love my job.
18:14And I can't lose it.
18:16So I thought if you could just...
18:17Let me just stop you there.
18:20I thought maybe you'd heard.
18:22The hearing's over.
18:24She got 12 years.
18:26And as far as I know, your name wasn't mentioned.
18:29Which, I guess, is the good news.
18:33And the not-so-good news,
18:36you're being placed on restricted duties
18:37while there's an internal investigation.
18:40Oh.
18:41We both know that could have been a lot worse.
18:44Listen.
18:44From what I hear, you're a good cop.
18:47Keep your head down,
18:48and soon you'll be able to put this whole chapter behind you.
18:51In the meantime,
18:53at least you know Becky's out of your life.
18:57Mum?
19:18The man's out.
19:22Phil! Phil! Phil! Phil! Phil! Phil! Phil! Phil!
19:35Hey.
19:39Hey. Are you OK?
19:41Yeah. Erm... I went to see her. At the prison.
19:46What? Hang on, when?
19:48No, I wanted to stop her saying bad things about you at the hearing.
19:51How did you even know about... No, but I think I made it worse.
19:54I told her I wished she was dead.
19:59And I meant it.
20:03It's over.
20:08It's over.
20:09She's got 12 years.
20:11Till we don't ever have to see her again.
20:17And she didn't say anything about you?
20:19Me?
20:20No.
20:21So thank you.
20:25Oh. Sorry, I just came to check on Betsy.
20:29Yeah, of course.
20:38How are you?
20:41She got 12 years.
20:43No.
20:44Keeps on me.
20:47I think we're gonna have a takeaway.
20:50Right?
20:51Mm-hmm.
20:56And he could stay.
21:03I can't.
21:04Got a bad luck work to do.
21:07You know, catch up.
21:08I will be at work tomorrow, though, if you feel like coming in.
21:18Of you, kiddo.
21:30Hey.
21:31Right, come on.
21:32would you? We're going to be okay, kiddo. Oh, we're going to be okay.
22:16Oh, we're going to be okay.
