00:12I'm not supposed to move someone having a fit unless they're going to hurt themselves.
00:16I'm here, baby. Okay, I'm here. Ambulance. Yes, my son. You're safe. What am I going to do?
00:24It'll be okay. Really, it will. But I need this job. I haven't got money for a court case,
00:29and what's Billy going to say? And now you've lost your job because of me.
00:33I'm so, so sorry. You're all right. All right?
00:37Nursery all right? Oh, Annie drew you a picture. Oh, did you? Let's have a look.
00:41Oh, wow. Probably a little Frida Kahlo, isn't you? Eh? Thank you.
00:47There you are, Ollie.
00:50This bully again. Had to cut chewing gum out of Dr. Buss' hair and the nurses off.
00:56Well, you know the only thing that's going to cheer us up, don't you? Milkshakes.
01:00Mum's waiting for me. She says we need to clean the lounge, and by a wee she needs me.
01:04Er, no, I'll take the case if you want to. Get them out of your hair.
01:07Well, are you sure? That'd be great. I'm going to...
01:09Yeah, all right. Last one to the calf has got stingy feet.
01:12When you marks get set, go!
01:13See you later. Thanks.
01:21Keep cushioning his head. Has the seizure finished?
01:24How do I tell?
01:26I'm here. I'm here, babe.
01:28Where is your nearest hospital?
01:30Er...
01:31It's Wulford General.
01:32Can you bring him in? It'll be quicker than an ambulance.
01:35Ravi?
01:36Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I'll drive. Yeah.
01:38I'll let them know to expect you.
01:42Ravi?
01:43Ravi?
01:44Yeah?
01:45Why don't you go and get a taxi?
01:48Er, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's a good idea.
01:51Thanks, Linda.
01:52Okay, I'm here.
01:54Who are you?
01:55Well, it's me, baby. It's your mum.
01:58He doesn't know who I am.
01:59What if he's got brain damage?
02:01It's all right. He's just coming out of his seizure. It's normal.
02:03I didn't know you was a doctor.
02:05My eldest daughter's got epilepsy.
02:08Why is this happening?
02:09Try not to worry.
02:11Okay.
02:13Come here.
02:17Oh, there is no way a woman is living here.
02:21Just found something.
02:22What?
02:23What is it?
02:25Er, it's disgusting!
02:28What are you two doing here?
02:36All right?
02:37Feeding time at the zoo?
02:38You all right?
02:39Now, Linda's busy.
02:40Just washing them for a bit.
02:41Here, look.
02:43And he did that at school.
02:45Room for two more?
02:46Yeah, of course.
02:47I'm just going to go wash my hands, actually.
02:49Er, can you order me a coffee?
02:50Er, yeah.
02:58Don't cry, baby.
02:59He's going to cry again.
03:07Annie, I'll go and choose a cake room.
03:09Oh, I'll go and help.
03:10No, no, no.
03:12What are you doing?
03:13I was just messing around.
03:14What are you doing, messing around?
03:15What are you doing?
03:15Were you putting chewing gum in zero at school here?
03:17No.
03:19You listen to me.
03:21All right, if you're bullying him, it's going to stop here.
03:23Do you hear me?
03:24Give me that.
03:27Give me that.
03:30Everything all right?
03:31Yeah, yeah, yeah.
03:33Good.
03:35Get another chair.
03:36We're going to need another one.
03:38Go on.
03:39Have another chair.
03:40Should have guessed, though, he'd be straight on the phone to you.
03:42Why did you let Alfie think you was dead?
03:44All them years, why didn't you let him know that you were safe?
03:49Where do you think you're going?
03:51You let yourselves in.
03:53You can let yourselves out again.
03:54No, wait.
03:56Zoe's charged with murder.
03:58I don't want anything to do with it.
04:01It's Alfie.
04:04He's having a breakdown.
04:06It's his mental health.
04:08He's really struggling.
04:09He hasn't been out of bed for weeks.
04:11No.
04:11You're lying.
04:13Do you think she would lie about something like that?
04:15I hadn't seen Zoe for years.
04:16She turns up on my doorstep.
04:18Next thing I know, she's on a murder charge.
04:20She told me about you because she knew she could use it to manipulate me.
04:23But I'd do anything for Alfie, yeah?
04:26And I'm really scared he's having a breakdown.
04:29But you can help him, please.
04:33Yolandi says she's heading up the hospital now.
04:34So me and Lex are going to meet her up there.
04:36Yeah, we're going to go out tomorrow.
04:38Janet's making him a card.
04:40Do you want to get him a clunkies before we go, Nick?
04:43Are you still worried about Phil?
04:47Look, everyone's looking out for Nigel, you know.
04:49They're all going to visit him.
04:50There'll be queues outside the hospital this way.
04:53You haven't got to worry about your grandad, OK?
04:54He's got plenty as a bolt.
04:57Unless it's something else.
05:00Thanks.
05:02OK, just follow my line.
05:05OK, great. Thank you.
05:06He'll go down, Alf. Thank you.
05:10Right, we're taking him for a CT scan of his head.
05:12We'll know a lot more afterwards.
05:13Could one of us go with him?
05:15He'll be back before you know it.
05:16We'll look after him. I promise.
05:21I can't believe we're back here again.
05:25Give us a season ticket at this rate.
05:33This is probably something to do with his kidneys.
05:36Toxins in his blood.
05:37Messing with his brain or something.
05:41I'll call everyone.
05:42Right, he's going to be OK.
06:01It's a big change.
06:03They're moving away.
06:06Getting gays and now having a baby.
06:11He says I'll be their big sister.
06:14Andy's off to pay for me to come up on the train at half term.
06:18You don't have to go if you don't want to.
06:20I want to, like, just...
06:23If things go back to how they were before.
06:26Mum and Jay and...
06:28You and Dad.
06:32You've had, um...
06:34You've had more to deal with than any of us.
06:36It's OK to be sad.
06:41Jay and your Dad, they'll always be there for you.
06:45Because they love you.
06:47Right.
06:48We all love you.
06:51Now you're going to have a little brother or sister who's going to love you too.
06:55And...
06:56You've got me.
06:58And me.
06:59I ain't going nowhere.
07:00Unluckily for you.
07:04Can we go see Nigel now?
07:06Of course we can.
07:08And them are clunkies.
07:10Ooh.
07:12Come on.
07:16What would you like?
07:19Mum.
07:21Hey.
07:23Is he OK?
07:24This is because he got beaten up, innit?
07:26They must have, like, hurt his brain or something.
07:28Um, look, why don't you two go and grab us some coffee?
07:31You said it was Rank last time and I want to see Nugget.
07:33They've taken him for some tests, so it might be a while.
07:37To be honest, I could murder a Rank latte.
07:40OK, well, if I put some chocolate sprinkles on it, it might taste a bit better.
07:44Come on.
07:48Mr and Mrs Galati.
07:49Is Devinder OK?
07:50What's happened?
07:51He's doing well.
07:52We're still running tests, but his early results suggest he's suffered an epileptic seizure.
07:56Now, we think this could be related to his recent head trauma.
08:01Blabby.
08:02Cheers, mate.
08:02Oh.
08:04All ready for Spencer?
08:06Yeah, yeah, good.
08:07Yeah, I got my visa sorted, so it's all good.
08:08Yeah, listen, I've got a lot of miscourses in me.
08:10I'm sorry about you.
08:11Everything OK?
08:16Can't get out of bed.
08:23Can you sit down?
08:26Ravi?
08:28Ravi!
08:29There's this one they said.
08:31It's, uh, it's karma.
08:33What?
08:34I did this, Priya.
08:36I did this to our son.
08:37Devinder is somewhere in this hospital, having God knows what done to him.
08:41And do you know what he needs from us?
08:42To support him.
08:44To be strong.
08:45OK?
08:45Yeah, this isn't about you, Ravi.
08:47This is about him.
08:48Can you just man up?
08:51Ravi?
08:53Ravi?
08:57You said he was having a breakdown.
08:59Well, Zoe said she was going to leave the country.
09:00I'd do something to get you here.
09:02That's low, that is.
09:02I'll tell you what is low.
09:03Letting him think that you were dead.
09:05And Chrissie framing my daughter for murder.
09:07She wouldn't have.
09:08No, she turned Jasmine against her own mother.
09:10They terrorised Zoe for months.
09:13You're asking me to believe that she'd risk going back inside for another 19 years?
09:17She might be a lot of things, but she ain't stupid.
09:19No, but she wants revenge.
09:20And 19 years is a long time to be sitting in a prison cell
09:23thinking about all the people that put you there.
09:25When Chrissie found out that Zoe was back in Walford,
09:27she went to a teenage girl and dripped poison in her ear, yeah?
09:31Used her to get to Zoe.
09:33That is wrong, and you know it.
09:35My daughter's going to rot in a prison cell for the rest of her life
09:37is something that Chrissie did.
09:40All I want is your help.
09:43This was a bad idea.
09:45I should have left the past where it belongs.
09:47Yeah.
09:47You know when you say past, what?
09:49You mean me?
09:51Because, J, you haven't said a word to me
09:53since you walked through them doors.
09:56Can you leave us?
09:57Yeah.
10:00Alfie.
10:00No, no, no, no.
10:01We need to talk.
10:03You owe me that.
10:04Well, let me remind you again
10:07that these lanterns are a guiding light
10:10bringing weary travellers to our door.
10:13So?
10:14Well, how are they supposed to do that
10:15if they're covered in dust?
10:18Elaine, could you stick another one in there for me, please?
10:21Oh.
10:24She will be wearing these lanterns in a minute.
10:26That'd bring the weary travellers to the door, wouldn't it?
10:32Oh, did you hear about Nugget?
10:34He had a seizure.
10:36Yeah.
10:37I remember when Nancy had her first one.
10:39God, he was so scared.
10:41I hope he's all right.
10:44How was Ollie at the cafe?
10:47Yeah, he's fine.
10:49Why?
10:50He's just been quiet all evening.
10:52I wondered if he'd said anything more
10:54about who was bullying him.
10:56No, no.
10:57No, he was as good as gold.
10:58Had a lovely time.
11:01Now bullies get bored, don't they?
11:04You'll have moved on before you know it.
11:10Right, I'll do that.
11:11Come on.
11:12Oh, Mum, I love my guts for garters.
11:14I don't mind here.
11:15You're knackered, innit?
11:16Yeah.
11:18Right.
11:19Just don't be looking at my skirt.
11:23Start with this one.
11:24Why not?
11:30What happens now, eh, Jake?
11:31What?
11:33What, Danny turns up and we have a beard moon family reunion, yeah?
11:39I haven't heard from him in ages.
11:41All right.
11:43Listen, you might have to just help me out a little bit here, cuz.
11:46You know, I'm a little bit lost.
11:48Don't quite know what to do.
11:49Do you know what I mean?
11:50I don't know whether to give you a hug
11:53or ring your neck.
11:56Where have you been?
11:57Johnny Allen put a price on my head.
11:58Oh, man.
11:59I got away and I ran.
12:01Spain, Greece, Thailand, anywhere I could hide.
12:04But you know Johnny Allen's been long dead now, right?
12:07Didn't matter.
12:08People from that world, I had enemies.
12:10All right.
12:12Not a letter.
12:13Fun call.
12:14I couldn't put you in danger.
12:15It was better if I just vanished.
12:17Better for who?
12:18Of course I thought about getting in touch.
12:20But then more and more time passed and...
12:23It was too late.
12:25Too late for what?
12:27You know I never stopped caring, right?
12:29You know that.
12:30And you know that...
12:31I've made a life here with me, Kat and the boys
12:34and there's always, always been room for you.
12:39God.
12:40As my head's all over the place.
12:41Yeah, we'll join the club.
12:43I get it.
12:44I get...
12:45Well, you did what you did, okay?
12:47Can't say I like it, but...
12:49I can live with it.
12:51But I'd really like it if you could stay tonight.
12:54For me.
12:55Oh.
12:55Well, so you get a chance
12:58to meet the boys and
13:00me and you can have a catch-up.
13:03So Kat can put on the thumbscrews?
13:05No, don't worry about Kat.
13:06I've...
13:07I've handled her for years.
13:11So it's up to you, Jake.
13:12You can either do another runner
13:14or you can stay.
13:17It's your choice.
13:19Your choice.
13:21Listen, whatever you decide,
13:23remember, we're family, yeah?
13:26And I love you.
13:35Shots.
13:36Shots.
13:38Babe.
13:39Can you serve them?
13:40Yep.
13:47I would have thought this would be
13:48the last place you'd want to be.
13:50Why?
13:51Put something in my drink.
13:54It was no good.
13:56Absolutely fine.
13:58Cheer up, darling.
13:59Come sit on my knee.

18:33And she is brilliant
18:34Okay, she's a credit to you
18:35You are more than enough for those kids
18:38Okay?
18:40You know, if Ravi can't step up as a dad
18:43Maybe you need to make a choice
18:45For all of you
18:49Rav
18:53It takes balls to wade into a bunch of fellas like that
18:57They could have had a blade or anything
18:58So I appreciate you
18:59Yeah, don't worry about it
19:02You're one of ours, they're coming

19:11All right, nobody's that stupid
19:13People get scared
19:15Run to the police
19:16Make themselves a deal
19:18We've had nothing, Ravi
19:20No raids
19:21No bothering months
19:22And you know
19:23That it only goes that quiet
19:25When the old bill got an ace up their sleeve
19:28But me and you
19:30We're going to find our little rodent friend
19:31And we're going to deal with him

20:28So I'll sort it
20:31I mean life moves on
20:33You can't live in the park

20:37But I'm going to miss him

20:52On a no fault basis, of course
20:54We love you at the minute, Mark
20:56So if you want your job back
20:57It's yours

21:10Thank you
21:11Oh, and I'll see you tomorrow for my shift
21:13Quite breezy
21:14Um
21:16Sad
21:17We're very happy Honey's coming back to work
21:19We don't think you're quite the right fit going forward
21:23Sorry
21:24Um
21:36Oi
21:37We don't do self-service
21:45Put yourself one
21:49Tar
21:52Got my eyes on you
21:53Very nice
21:55Flattered
21:58You know what?
21:59I've been working behind a bar all my life
22:02I've seen men like you
22:03Come and go
22:04Ten a penny
22:07But if you think I'm going to stand by
22:08And watch you mess up my Linda's life
22:11You've got another thing coming
22:12Well, I'm just trying to be supportive
22:14That's all
22:15She's got me for support
22:16So you
22:18Can just naff off
22:27I can't drive
22:29Look, we're making an urgent referral to an epilepsy specialist
22:32We don't know what's happening yet
22:33But they'll do further tests
22:35So, do I have to stay here then?
22:37Well, because of your recent head injury
22:38We'll keep you in for a couple of days
22:40But you'll be home soon
22:42And the good news is you can finally eat
22:45What do you want, bro?
22:46I'll order you something
22:47My treat
22:47Oh, wow
22:48I'd take her up on that if I were you
22:50Thanks, Doctor
22:55Why does this keep happening?
22:57My kidneys are now this
22:58Just because someone random attacked me
23:01Isn't it fair?
23:02I know, baby
23:03Ecolepsy
23:06Can't do anything
23:07You might not have it, would there
23:09Eh?
23:10Let's just wait and see what the specialist says
23:12Yeah, lots of people have epilepsy
23:14And lead normal lives
23:15Yeah
23:19Dad
23:22Hey
23:24Son
23:26Let's not have a doctor outside
23:28Hey
23:29You should tell me what's going on
23:31Dad, have you been fighting?
23:33Yeah
23:35Yeah, I found the geezer who did this
23:37And I made him play
23:39About time
23:39Are you all right?
23:41Yeah
23:41Who was it?
23:42Just some geezer
23:44Looking for money
23:46Listen
23:49I am never
23:51Gonna let anyone hurt my family again
23:54Do you hear me?
23:56Never
24:03Why is the door on the latch?
24:05Oh, Ross has popped round Ian's for a beer
24:06This is London, Vic
24:08You gotta lock your door at night
24:09Sorry, Dad
24:10I'm being serious
24:11It's literally next door
24:13Chill out
24:14Do you want a glass of wine?
24:16Nah
24:17You got any beers?
24:18Yeah, they're in the fridge
24:21So
24:22Why are you out roaming the streets?
24:26You gambling?
24:28Fighting?
24:29Let me guess
24:30It's a woman
24:33Ugh
24:34Since when did I discuss my sex life with my big sister, eh?
24:39You know, when you look at me like that, you remind me your mum
24:41Oi, yeah
24:44And I'll have you know that I am an enlightened 21st century man, thank you very much
24:49Oh, really?
24:50Yes, I am
24:50Well, can you remember that when you're done chasing half the skirt in Walford?
24:54Because I've actually got Olivia
24:57Sorry, boy
24:58Sorry, boy
25:01What?
25:02Someone's got to keep an eye on you, ain't they?
25:05Are you staying?
25:06Of course I'm staying, you melon
25:08Oh, careful
25:10Oh
25:12Oh
25:13Oh
25:18So you're going to tell me, or should I just guess?
25:21What?
25:23The state of you
25:25You stink of booze
25:26Yeah, I'd be it
25:29Why'd you tell him that you got the guy who hurt him?
25:33Because I'm trying to make our kids feel safe
25:35Safe
25:37They'd be safe
25:38If you were here with us
25:40Instead of being out there on the streets
25:43Do you even know how lucky you are
25:44To still have this family after everything that's happened?
25:48Yeah
25:48I need you
25:49Ravi
25:49They need you
25:51Yeah, yeah, I know, I know, Britta
25:52It's lie after lie with you
25:55I can't take it anymore
25:58You don't even listen to me
26:00You told me you were out of all that stuff, that drugs, the gangs
26:03But you're up to here with it, aren't you?
26:06Did they do this to you?
26:08Oh my God
26:08Why won't you talk to me?
26:10Please, Priya, but don't
26:12You're going to lose us, I swear to you, if you don't tell me the truth
26:16I mean it
26:17I will walk out with them kids, and you will never see us again
26:21This is the last chance
