01:01PIANO PLAYS
01:02So what's happening with the old exams?
01:03Oh, don't ask.
01:05I never got my exams.
01:07If not carefully, they don't like me.
01:09Bald.
01:10He-he-he.
01:12Oh.
01:13Signal failure.
01:14There's loads of trains delayed.
01:16Oh, you're joking.
01:17Mm.
01:18What was yours, a 1735 to Glasgow?
01:20Yeah, I'll get the next one.
01:22Well, you'd better check them out of here, no?
01:23I don't know.
01:29Mine's running.
01:30Is it?
01:32Well, it might be cancelled when we get there.
01:34Yeah, I'll definitely come in with you like your dad said.
01:37Mate, you don't need to see me on the train, honestly.
01:39It's ridiculous.
01:39Well, I promised him.
01:40And if it's cancelled, we can try again in the morning.
01:43Should I turn around?
01:44No.
01:45I mean, look, right, if the train's cancelled,
01:48I can just wait in the waiting room for the next one.
01:50Not all night, you can't.
01:52Well, you did.
01:53Well, I didn't have anywhere else to go.
01:54Right, look, mate, can you just take me to the station, like we said,
01:57and otherwise I'll just, I'll get another cab.
01:59OK.
02:00Customer's always right.
02:12Stop glaring at them.
02:13Why should I?
02:14Because they could arrest you.
02:16What for?
02:17Lovely.
02:18You just kicked off at two coppers.
02:19Because I've got them banged to rights.
02:22All of this could have been avoided.
02:25He should be walking the streets still now.
02:28And abusing you.
02:31Well, I'm sorry, look, but that's the love and chose of it.
02:34Yes, he could still be walking the streets,
02:36and he could be still sleeping in your bed,
02:37and he could still be raising his hand to you whenever he fancied it.
02:41Hey, be careful.
02:43They're talking about you.
02:44Oh, what are they saying?
02:48He was intimidating a police officer.
02:51Two police officers, actually.
02:52Well, he wasn't scared, I'll give you that.
02:56Maybe it was guilt.
02:58Maybe what he meant was, if you hadn't have let him out,
03:00then I wouldn't have had to kill him.
03:01That's one interpretation.
03:08Okay, okay, just call me when he gets there, yeah?
03:13Oh, that woman.
03:14What did she say?
03:16What do you think she said?
03:17That I should have brought him.
03:21What?
03:22What?
03:22That face.
03:23I said nothing.
03:25You didn't have to.
03:26Except that maybe she had a point.
03:28I know she had a point.
03:30She still knows how to push your buttons.
03:33Well, it wouldn't have killed me, would it?
03:36No, you're not going to believe it.
03:39Will's train's been cancelled.
03:43Signal failure.
03:45Cancelled.
03:46Cancelled.
03:47Delayed.
03:48Cancelled.
03:50All right.
03:52I'll phone him and tell him to come home.
03:53I'm trying him now, he's not picking up.
04:21What the hell are you doing here?
04:23I hope you washed your hands.
04:25Get out!
04:27The door was open.
04:29No.
04:30No, it wasn't.
04:32Where did you get that?
04:33What?
04:34The key.
04:35Oh, I found it outside, on the pavement.
04:38That's my dad's spare.
04:39Well, he must have dropped it.
04:41So you thought you'd just let yourself into my flat?
04:43I tried the doorbell first.
04:45No, you didn't.
04:46Look, I was just coming to return it.
04:47You're a liar!
04:48Give it to me.
04:49I'll tell them you're here.
04:51What?
04:54Well, you're supposed to be on holiday, aren't you?
04:56And you've got everyone running around looking after your son.
04:59Including an 80-odd-year-old man.
05:00Seriously, get out!
05:03I haven't got anywhere else to go.
05:06You thought you'd stay here whilst I was away?
05:11Unbelievable.
05:13Like Goldilocks.
05:16I'd have been a good little girl.
05:18You're insane.
05:20Are you, er...
05:21Are you drinking this?
05:27Canceled?
05:27Signal failure.
05:28Well, is he coming home?
05:30Not responding to any of our messages.
05:32Meanwhile, she's still got the ump.
05:35Well, I'm not surprised.
05:36Who's Ben, not me?
05:37You've got to trust people.
05:39Darling, I'm just chatting with Auntie Leanne.
05:41Right, so if you've ruled out Sean and Will, who do you think stole it then?
05:45I mean, you should have seen Will emptying his bag out this morning to prove he hadn't done it.
05:50Oh, Lee, I felt so tight.
05:52I mean, like you needed to be accused of that today.
05:53I can solve you, Mr. Raff.
05:55I should have just told Kit and Lisa when they were here.
05:57What are you saying, darling?
05:59Will took the money from the safe.
06:00No, Will didn't take anything.
06:02Hang on a minute.
06:03Susie, did you actually see him take it?
06:05With my own two eyes, I was standing at the door.
06:09Are you sure?
06:10Yeah, he didn't see me.
06:12Darling, why didn't you say something earlier?
06:14Indeed.
06:15What's she doing here?
06:16Come on, upstairs, Susie and the Banshees.
06:18Hold your horses a minute.
06:20What?
06:21She's saying that she saw Will steal that money.
06:31I'm not joking.
06:32I can't go back to Shona's.
06:34I don't care where you go.
06:37Will you just give me five minutes?
06:39Tell you what, I'll give you one minute starting from now.
06:41And you're lucky that I haven't rang the police.
06:42Hello, breaking and entering.
06:44Well, it wasn't breaking and entering, was it?
06:46It was just entering.
06:47Yeah, because you stole the key.
06:48Found the key.
06:49Wow, you really do have an answer for everything, don't you?
06:52No.
06:54Not everything.
06:57Where's home?
07:01There isn't one.
07:04I was a professional nanny.
07:06A live-in nanny.
07:08And I was good at it.
07:10No, I still am good at it.
07:12But, well, I'm between jobs right now.
07:16So why can't you go back to your sisters?
07:22There's a bit of an unresolved issue.
07:24Shona didn't know the half of it.
07:26Oh, the Queen of Tees.
07:30Okay.
07:32Okay, all right, but you've got to promise not to blab.
07:35I'm a vault.
07:40Well, things are a bit complicated between me and David.
07:47Complicated how?
07:51Well, it's Dad again.
07:52Can you please ring me?
07:54Still not answering?
07:56I think it's the first time you took me to the station.
07:59Well, we'll never catch up with him.
08:00There's roadworks everywhere.
08:01There's temporary lights.
08:02It's rush hour.
08:03I'll ring Tim.
08:04No, no, text him.
08:06I don't want Will caught in the known.
08:08Why, you reckon he's going to go and meet Megan?
08:10Tell him to bring Will straight back.
08:12Tell him not to let him out of the cab.
08:14Assuming he hasn't already.
08:18Right, Sam.
08:19Try not to panic, because it's good that we know now.
08:22And if he's still in the cab, then we're all right, aren't we?
08:24Yeah, and what if Tim doesn't get the message?
08:26Well, he will when he gets to the station.
08:28He never had any intention of getting that train, did he?
08:31Well, Tim could take him all the way to Scotland.
08:33No, no, I need him back here.
08:36Unless he's dropped him already.
08:40Maybe he's already with her.
08:41Well, look, try not to catastrophize.
08:44Oh, Steve.
08:46Maybe we're already too late.
08:50Maybe I've already lost my son.
09:07Do you think they'll be able to fix it?
09:09Your dad's going to go spare.
09:10How much did that cost?
09:12Loads.
09:15This mad Will didn't catch you.
09:16I thought he was supposed to be a dead fast runner.
09:20Oh, no.
09:21How did that happen?
09:34Who's that?
09:36What?
09:37Someone keeps texting you.
09:38Oh, it's just another alert.
09:41It says the bypass is closed near the cathedral.
09:43That's where everybody's going, this way.
09:45How long did that take?
09:47Well, you've not got a train to catch.
09:49What's the rush?
09:50Get a tram.
09:51Well, they're in a stop round here.
09:54Don't worry, I know a shortcut.
09:58So it's been a tough old business for you, hasn't it,
10:00with these accusations?
10:02I never made them.
10:04I know you didn't.
10:06But we've got to believe the victim.
10:07That's what they say these days, isn't it?
10:09I'm not a victim.
10:11That's what I mean.
10:13People are saying you are,
10:14so they've got to believe you when you say that you're not.
10:16Exactly.
10:21Did all the kids at school think it was true?
10:23They still do.
10:24But they thought you were their dogs, didn't they?
10:26Their lads, especially.
10:28Yeah.
10:31I had a fling with an older girl once.
10:33About a woman.
10:35What, in Scotland?
10:36What?
10:36No, it was years before then.
10:38I was still at school.
10:41Yeah, high-fives in the corridor and all that.
10:43I was the man.
10:45Even the teachers had heard about it.
10:48None of this safeguarding nonsense.
10:51I remember Mr Gulbraith, the physics teacher,
10:53calling the register,
10:54and when he got to my name,
10:55he said,
10:56Stud,
10:57instead of Tim.
10:59What'd you do?
11:00Well, everybody cheered,
11:01so I stood up and took a bow,
11:02like the idiot that I was.
11:04Oh, come on.
11:06Yeah, Sally,
11:07thinks it must have messed me up,
11:09but it didn't.
11:10Dying down it most of my life.
11:12I would have lost my virginity.
11:14But I was below the age of consent.
11:18Is that what they call it?
11:21She wasn't my teacher or anything.
11:22She just
11:24worked in the local corner shop.
11:27And I was willing.
11:28Who was I?
11:29Like a rat up a drainpipe.
11:31Yeah, I can imagine.
11:33But technically,
11:34it was rape.
11:37According to Sally and Steve,
11:39and the law.
11:41Yeah, but
11:42if you were into it, though,
11:44then...
11:44Well, she took advantage of me.
11:46Whether I knew it or not.
11:48Whether I enjoyed it or not.
11:50And I did enjoy it.
11:51What lad wouldn't?
11:53That's what I'm trying to say.
11:54It was like
11:55all my sexual fantasies come true.
11:57Yeah, I bet.
11:59So you had a crush on this
12:01teacher Megan, did you?
12:04Yeah.
12:06You're lucky she never responded.
12:10You might think it sounds like
12:11fun sex with an older woman.
12:13All that attention.
12:14Somebody like her
12:15finding you
12:16attractive.
12:18Fancying you.
12:20But it's a good job
12:21she didn't believe me.
12:22I mean, not that she would have done.
12:24No offence.
12:24Well,
12:25she did.
12:27Did what?
12:29You know.
12:31Fancy me.
12:32Well, she told you that.
12:33Well, yeah,
12:34she responded.
12:35What, you mean something happened?
12:37Well,
12:38you know,
12:38just a bit.
12:39Well,
12:40in other words,
12:40a lot.
12:42We were in love.
12:45You are, or?
12:46Both of us.
12:49Right.
12:51All right,
12:52look, mate,
12:52if you tell anyone,
12:53yeah,
12:53I'll just deny it.
12:54I won't tell anyone.
13:02So,
13:03what happened with you
13:04and that woman, then?
13:06What,
13:06me and Trisha?
13:08Oh,
13:08it ran its course.
13:10She broke me heart.
13:12I had to pretend
13:13that I could handle it,
13:14but I was just a little kid like you.
13:15Not a little kid.
13:16You wear a uniform to school.
13:20Megan's a full-grown woman
13:22with a job and a car
13:23and a bank account.
13:24I bet you'll not be the first.
13:27No.
13:28She told you that.
13:32We're going to have a baby.
13:35Yours?
13:35Of course.
13:37Not Daniel Osborne's?
13:41No.
13:42Not normal, though,
13:43is it, Will?
13:45Sleeping with him
13:45because she can't be seen
13:46in public with the one
13:47that she really loves.
13:50All those techs,
13:52they know about the money,
13:53don't they?
13:54You're taking me back.
13:57I'll take you wherever you want.
14:03Where are you meeting at?
14:05Airport.
14:09You sure you want this?
14:12I'm sure.
14:15Okay.
14:18Yeah, man,
14:18there was just a few
14:20bunk-ups in the box room
14:21whilst the mum and stepdad
14:22were out.
14:24But it wasn't a proper
14:25relationship,
14:26not like yours.
14:27Like I say,
14:28she was an adult.
14:30I was still wearing
14:31pyjamas and
14:32trick-or-treating
14:33and that,
14:33playing football
14:34on the common after school.
14:36She was going to nightclubs
14:37and getting her hair done.
14:39Probably had other lads
14:40like me on the go.
14:42It was wrong.
14:43Megan hasn't taken
14:43advantage of me, though, right?
14:45It's not like those blokes
14:46you see on the news.
14:49See, if I drop you
14:49at the airport,
14:50we'll say that you did
14:51a runner at some traffic lights,
14:52eh?
14:53Because you'd had her
14:54kill me if he knew.
14:56Deal.
14:57And wherever you end up,
14:58you'd better lie low,
14:59both of you.
15:01Because they will come
15:01looking for her
15:03and they will find her.
15:06So you'd better make sure
15:07you're both in if it keeps.
15:08We are.
15:11We're forever.
15:16Finally.
15:17Airport here we come, then.
15:26Chased him?
15:26Oh, threatening all sorts,
15:28apparently.
15:28You dropped the telescope
15:29in the panic shower.
15:32Oh, Sam,
15:33you've only had that
15:34two minutes.
15:35I'm sorry.
15:36Have you spoken to Eva?
15:38No.
15:39It was Will
15:39who stole the money
15:40from the safe.
15:41They reckon he's gone off
15:41to meet Megan.
15:42But his train was cancelled,
15:43so now they're hoping
15:44Tim's going to bring him back.
15:45Honestly,
15:45it's all going on today.
15:47When do you think
15:48they might let you back?
15:51I don't know.
15:53Suspended,
15:53pending an inquiry.
15:56Maybe she genuinely liked you.
16:02Well, if she did,
16:05I was duped.
16:09Cook all did.
16:12And by a 16-year-old boy,
16:15like...
16:17Can you imagine
16:18what that feels like?
16:22Oh, but of course
16:23I can't say anything.
16:24Of course.
16:26I mean,
16:27he's going to have
16:27any pity for me.
16:30Will Driscoll
16:31is the victim here.
16:33If only he could see it.
16:36Would you testify in court?
16:39Gladly.
16:43Bit embarrassing, though, eh?
16:47Humiliating,
16:48but needs must.
16:49Well,
16:50I hope they get her.
16:52What do you think
16:54Shona would say
16:55if she knew about you
16:58and David?
17:00There is no me
17:01and David.
17:02Look,
17:03he came on to me once
17:05when he was drunk
17:05and I knocked him back.
17:07And we just told Shona
17:08it was all a big misunderstanding.
17:10We actually told her
17:12that he thought
17:13I was her.
17:14Do you believe that?
17:16I guess.
17:17It's difficult.
17:19Why is it?
17:26You like him?
17:28No.
17:29Yes, you do.
17:30No, I don't.
17:31It'll blow up in your face.
17:33Everything blows up
17:34in my face.
17:36Mine too.
17:39Well,
17:41for what it's worth,
17:41I'm sorry
17:43for letting myself in.
17:45I was desperate.
17:47I'll give you
17:47the benefit of the doubt.
17:50I, uh,
17:51I best get going.
17:53Where?
17:55Well,
17:55I've got 137 quid
17:57in my bank account
17:57so
17:58I guess I can, uh,
18:01put myself up
18:01in a cheap hotel
18:02for a couple of nights
18:03or a hostel.
18:11I was
18:12gonna do
18:13spag bol
18:15but there's no parmesan.
18:19I could
18:20nip out
18:21and get a sum.
18:25Stay for tea?
18:27Or
18:28stay the night.
18:29Save me some money.
18:32Don't worry,
18:32I'm not looking
18:33to get into anything
18:34bedroom-y.
18:34I promise.
18:36Yeah, me neither.
18:39I'm a share of that
18:40for the time being.
18:40Thank you very much.
18:44I suppose
18:44I wouldn't
18:47mind
18:48your company.
19:00Where are we?
19:01You don't have to.
19:03What, you drove around
19:04in a circle?
19:05Don't let her do it
19:06against somebody else, eh?
19:07You tricked me!
19:14I'll honour the agreement.
19:17Still take you to the airport,
19:18just say the word.
19:21But I want you to be sure.
19:24Did she tell you
19:25to steal from the safe?
19:26No.
19:27But what else
19:27was I gonna do?
19:28Sell them the comics?
19:29Where's the money?
19:31I gave it to her.
19:32Who's got your boarding pass?
19:34She has.
19:36How's your French?
19:36Look, why are you saying this?
19:38Because she might get bored
19:39and move on.
19:40If they haven't tracked her
19:41down by then.
19:43Who knows?
19:44You might end up
19:45living happily ever after
19:46in a chateau.
