00:13Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:31Peter!
00:40You all right, Priya? Lauren's not in there, is she?
00:42She's not picking up.
00:43No, she ain't in here. The door's still locked.
00:51What happened? Did you turn it off?
00:54Yeah, Peter, that's exactly what I did.
00:55I thought I'd come down in the middle of the night
00:57and I'd ruin all our food that we cannot afford.
01:00All right, well, maybe we can stick this in Gren's freezer
01:02before it goes off.
01:04Whoever that is, can you tell them to do one, please?
01:07Come in.
01:11All right, where's Lauren?
01:12In the kitchen.
01:14Louie, come on, mate. Lauren, you've got a problem.
01:16Yes, I know.
01:17Nah, that's the least of it.
01:19Police have just called.
01:21Some geezer walking his dog this morning in Essex
01:23found four burnt-out motors on a bit of waste ground.
01:26Four motors?
01:27Yeah. If you check the VIN numbers,
01:28trace them back to us.
01:30Well, you.
01:31None of our stock was touched.
01:33Police reckon it's kids joy-riding arson.
01:35Oh, I don't believe this.
01:36Yeah, well, neither do I.
01:37Cos kids go for hot hatches, don't they?
01:39Not mid-life crisis motors.
01:41And four motors getting burnt.
01:43It's like a message, isn't it?
01:45What do you mean by that?
01:46Listen, I'm gonna ask you again, yeah?
01:47Them motors were kosher, weren't they?
01:49Yeah, of course they were.
01:50Them just ripped someone off who's looking for a bit of payback.
01:53No.
01:54What, you sure?
01:55Yes.
01:56To be saying, what, it's just bad luck, Lauren?
01:59Yes, Dad.
02:02Yeah, well, it seems to be following you around this morning, doesn't it?
02:04I don't know.
02:05Oh, wait.
02:10That's a fool.
02:11There's no one here.
02:13No, wait.
02:14Yeah, there's no one here.
02:16All right.
02:17No.
02:18No.
02:18No.
02:19No.
02:20No.
02:21No, no, no...
02:22No.
02:23No.
02:52Anything from Noren?
02:55Won't be long, though.
02:57Not if the look on Max's face just now was anything to go by.
03:00What's this? Second thoughts?
03:03No. No, of course not.
03:05Good. Good, cos Russell's only given you to the end of the week, remember?
03:08Yeah, and you don't want him calling on Vicky again.
03:10I know. I know.
03:14Mrs Lauren's a mate, Sam.
03:17And this bet was her chance to prove herself, wasn't it?
03:19Well, she ain't lost it yet, has she?
03:22You know what they say. One door closes and another one opens.
03:26So, get hold of that mate of yours, Sonny,
03:28and tell him that you're back in the market for those motors of his.
03:32And what if she still don't go for it?
03:34Well, then both doors close and she gets nothing.
03:39She's on her way over.
03:41Yeah.
03:42Yolanda keep asking me what I'm going to be doing in this man cave at all.
03:46Naughty.
03:47Hey.
03:48Hey.
03:49Patrick stemming us with coffee and cakes.
03:51Oh, that's nice of him.
03:52Not you. It's for me and this guy.
03:55It's a thank you for the allotments in the shed.
03:58Don't miss out. Come on.
04:03Yeah.
04:04It is, isn't it?
04:05It is what?
04:07Top.
04:09I can look, Conor.
04:10I can look.
04:11Oh, that's just looking, is it?
04:12Of course.
04:12Shut up.
04:13What?
04:14Talk to you later.
04:16Seriously, I'm getting in a special rum and then a new set of dominoes.
04:22I can't wait.
04:24So it's just you, me, and Oscar then?
04:28Uh, coffee, please.
04:30No rush.
04:31Sure.
04:33Yeah.
04:33All right.
04:33Time to go. Time to go. Come on.
04:35Let's go.
04:36All right.
04:44He'll come round.
04:45Sure.
04:47So you still don't want to tell him you helped out with the shed?
04:50No, I told you.
04:51I didn't do it for any thanks.
04:52Yeah.
04:53Anyway, I got my treat.
04:55Watching you get sweaty lifting those bags of soil.
04:58Well, if we can't go shed, but you fancy a rerun, we could have a trip out somewhere.
05:04Talk to Lauren for a motor.
05:06Why don't we go to the seaside?
05:08Oh, I just want to get sweaty on some beach, yeah.
05:11Oh, did somebody say beach?
05:13Uh, actually, mate, three may be a bit of a crowded area.
05:16No, look here, come. Please, all three of us.
05:20Yes.
05:20Yes.
05:25Yeah, they took all four of them.
05:27They didn't just take them, they talked to them and all.
05:29I don't believe this.
05:31Did you tell any of your low-life mates about this?
05:33No, of course not.
05:35Well, what about the archers, then?
05:37Was there anyone, like, sniffing about, paying a little bit of too much attention to them?
05:40No.
05:40Oh.
05:41This doesn't make any sense, does it?
05:44No.
05:46No, it don't.
05:49Unless...
05:49Me?
05:52Lauren, why would I torch motors that were gonna make me some serious cash, eh?
05:54No?
05:55Maybe because them dodgy motors that you wanted me to sell, they would make a lot more, wouldn't they?
06:00So come on, tell me, where were you?
06:02I can't believe that.
06:02Where were you last night?
06:04He was with me.
06:08All right, well, where were the both of you, then?
06:12What's that?
06:13It's a boozer in Hackney.
06:15Me, Mark, Phil, Grant, we ended up meeting some of Nigel's old mates.
06:19Turned into quite a sesh, actually.
06:22Lauren, if it were me, I think I'd be looking a little bit closer to home.
06:28What's that supposed to mean?
06:30Oh, this time yesterday, your old man was looking at giving up half the business, wasn't he?
06:35No.
06:36No.
06:36Now he gets to keep the lot, cashing on the insurance, and, um...
06:41Well, it wouldn't be the first time he's pulled a stunt like this, would it?
06:45No, no way.
06:47And all it would take is a box of matches.
06:56Strong coffee, please.
07:00So it's, uh...
07:03All a bit of a mess, isn't it?
07:05Yeah.
07:07Priya sorting the insurance out.
07:09So that's your idea of sorting it, is it?
07:11Filling out a claim form?
07:12No. Well, I asked Lauren if anyone's got a grudge against her.
07:14Oh, don't tell me.
07:16Lauren said,
07:17No, Daddy.
07:19If you ask me, Max, it's your own fault for making this stupid bet in the first place.
07:23Well, I was just giving her a chance to prove herself, that's all.
07:26And now you've got four motors up in that big scrapyard in the sky.
07:33Still.
07:35She's not gonna win the bet now, is she?
07:36No.
07:37It's off.
07:39I mean, cars get nicked all the time, don't they?
07:42It happens. It's bad luck.
07:44Lauren's already proved herself as far as I'm concerned.
07:46Cheers.
07:48I want her to do this.
07:50I want her to do this.
07:50I always have done.
07:51I don't want some chancer to snatch it away from her.
07:55And remind me, Cindy, what has any of this actually got to do with you?
08:01Remind me who has just moved in with you?
08:04Set up home with you?
08:07So let me get this straight, Max.
08:09You are gonna give away half your business to a kid who hasn't actually lifted a single finger to earn
08:16it.
08:20Yeah.
08:21Yeah.
08:23I'll be there in five minutes.
08:25Oh, the milk's leaked all over the fridge.
08:29That's him, will you?
08:31Yeah, I know he's an important supply. Just stall him.
08:34How can I help, love?
08:35Oh, can you just hold her?
08:36I'm gonna have to clean the fridge and then pump a whole new lot.
08:39Okay.
08:39I can hold him for you.
08:41I ain't got no meat in the go-to.
08:44Bottles to sort.
08:46Yeah, I'll just take her with me.
08:48Oh, how's that gonna go down?
08:50Meeting a big shot with a baby screaming the place down?
08:52She'll probably be a seat by the time we get there, won't you go?
08:56Come on.
08:56Here we go.
08:57There.
08:58That's good.
09:04Look, this...
09:05This ain't gonna take me long, you know?
09:08Well, you can take as long as you want.
09:11But...
09:12It's better I'll take it with me.
09:22Oh, my... wow.
09:24Wow.
09:27I thought you were clearing up.
09:29I felt my back the other night.
09:33By moving a mop?
09:35No, not for moving a mop.
09:36For moving the freezer, trying to get behind it.
09:38Oh.
09:38That's fine.
09:39Do you know what?
09:40I'll just do it myself.
09:41I'll do it myself.
09:42Right.
09:47All right, Lauren.
09:48Just seeing Jack.
09:49Just sorting out a crime number for the insurance.
09:52Wouldn't expect a payout any time soon, you know what they're like.
09:55Just wanna make sure none of us are involved.
09:57Well, I wasn't.
09:58Uh, I need a favour.
10:00No, not now.
10:01Wait, me, Josh and Jasmine are having a run out to the beach.
10:03Not now, Oscar, not now.
10:04What...
10:05Move, come on.
10:05What's he do?
10:09In there.
10:13How about this one?
10:15No, I'll take this one.
10:16Of course.
10:17It's cute, isn't it?
10:18Yeah, very nice.
10:25Would you like to pay cash or card?
10:28Card?
10:35Sam.
10:36That was really risky earlier, you know.
10:39Showing Lauren photos from the other week.
10:41Well, what if she asks Phil and Grant about them?
10:43Well, they won't have a clue what she's talking about.
10:46Won't stop them backing me up, though, will it?
10:51Look, you just gotta let her go round the square.
10:54Okay?
10:54Lashing out at everyone and anyone.
10:56And when she's done all that, what's she gonna be left with?
10:59One option.
11:00And only one.
11:03If it was anyone else...
11:05Well, it isn't.
11:05Right?
11:07So forget Lauren's feelings.
11:09This is your life we're talking about.
11:11This is the way out.
11:13And trust me, you really don't wanna mess with Russell.
11:17The way out of what?
11:26What are you doing?
11:28Um...
11:28Saving your boy's skin.
11:32What is this?
11:33Some sort of a joke?
11:34I've got to ask, Dad.
11:36What do you mean, ask?
11:37You're more or less accusing me, Lauren.
11:39You have been getting more and more worried.
11:41Yeah, the closer I get to winning this bit, maybe I rattled you.
11:44Oh, do me a favour, Lauren.
11:46Everybody knows that you would do anything to get what you want.
11:52Right, fair enough.
11:53What?
11:55Is that you admitting it?
11:55No, no, no.
11:56Maybe some of that does make sense, yeah?
11:58Apart from one small, tiny little detail.
12:03That's our partnership agreement.
12:05It's all ready.
12:06To go to my brief.
12:08To be signed.
12:10I was always gonna give you half the business, Lauren.
12:12Why?
12:13Why would you do that?
12:14Well, because apart from one little bit of bad luck,
12:16you've done everything I hoped you would anymore,
12:18and this is the thanks I get.
12:20Yeah, great.
12:21Yeah, I'm trying to help you.
12:23Giving you the biggest leg up you've ever had in your life.
12:25Probably ever will have.
12:26What's that supposed to mean?
12:27Oh, come on, Lauren.
12:28You ain't exactly made a success of much up to now, have you?
12:31You know, maybe Cindy's right.
12:32I'm giving you all of this.
12:33You ain't really earned it,
12:34and there I am just getting slagged off.
12:36So what?
12:36Am I some sort of charity case?
12:38Some stupid little kid that can't win a bet,
12:41so you just throw her a bone?
12:42Bone?
12:43It's quite a big bone, Lauren.
12:45I have been doing all of this to prove myself to you.
12:48Yeah, yeah, yeah.
12:48Of course you have.
12:48Look how that's working out for you.
12:50Do you know what?
12:51I'm still gonna prove it.
12:53I'm gonna win this fair and square.
12:54The bet is still on.
13:01Those classic cars were meant to bring in money.
13:04Money Mark really needs right now.
13:06And you setting the whole lot up in smoke?
13:09Them motors were never gonna raise the kind of money that he needs.
13:12Well, better than the big fat nothing he's looking at now.
13:14Look, it was a bargaining chip, okay, to make Laurency sense.
13:17You really think the old Bill aren't gonna take a serious look at this?
13:20So on top of everything else,
13:22he could be looking at a stretch inside.
13:24Yeah, and as would I.
13:26Which is why I made sure it could never be traced back to us.
13:29And I don't want you mentioning this to Phil, okay?
13:31Not this week.
13:32Not when he's got Nigel's funeral on his plate.
13:36Look, Mark's got one way out of this,
13:38and that's all he's ever had since you got involved
13:40and made things ten times worse.
13:41I told you I will get Mark his money.
13:44Okay.
13:45How much have you raised, Grant?
13:48Yeah, I thought so.
13:50A big fat nothing.
13:55We used to play this game all the time this week.
13:57Usually I slaughter you two.
13:58It's called BP, all right?
14:00Ball pots.
14:01You get the football, that's the B.
14:02We've got to get it into the pot.
14:03The P.
14:04Yes.
14:04Just a pretty face, Oscar.
14:08So it's like basketball only with a pot instead of a net.
14:12It's nothing like basketball.
14:13You throw the ball, and if it hits the other player
14:15before hitting the ground...
14:16One point to me!
14:17Me more like.
14:18So it's dodgeball.
14:19Yeah, but you can kick it.
14:20So it's football.
14:20And if I get it in the bucket...
14:22If I do, Mark.
14:23No, I get an extra point.
14:25So, it's basketball two.
14:27Only the fastest on the ground,
14:29and it's not a basket, it's...
14:32It's a bucket.
14:33It's a bit complicated, ain't it?
14:34And about the net.
14:35There ain't a net.
14:36The person comes over to your side,
14:37it's two extra points.
14:38And a penalty.
14:39Yeah, but the park wasn't the best place to play this.
14:41We really needed a big, wide beach event.
14:44In other words, she's bottling it.
14:47You know what?
14:47Do you know what?
14:48Game on.
14:48Oh.
14:49You can be the rat.
14:50I don't understand the rules.
14:52You warmed up, yeah?
14:53Yeah.
14:57Let's go!
14:58Right.
14:59Get ready to lose this game.
15:00Oh!
15:01Let's go.
15:03Well...
15:09It's back to my dad.
15:11What Sam said, it...
15:13It weren't him.
15:15Well, because he said so, Lauren.
15:17No.
15:18Because he offered me half the business anyway.
15:21What happened was just bad luck, he reckon.
15:26Well, I'm pleased for you.
15:28You deserve it.
15:30No, I don't.
15:32That's why I said no.
15:34I want to earn this.
15:36I need to earn it.
15:37I don't...
15:37I don't want it just handed to me.
15:41So now what, then?
15:47Problem?
15:49No, it's just, um...
15:57Bad news travels fast then, eh?
16:00Your mate with the dodgy motors, he's heard you down on your luck.
16:04I'm gonna have to make this up somehow, ain't I?
16:07But whatever I do, I will do it...
16:09well away from the car lot, okay?
16:13I've got no choice, Lauren.
16:16I need money too.
16:30So, Nicola's kicked you out then, or what?
16:35Well, you were sitting here over an hour ago.
16:37Or you're still sitting here now?
16:40We're taking a time out.
16:41After a meeting.
16:44It's time out from him.
16:48Look.
16:51Mum has filled me in.
16:56You want to do right by him, even if he ain't done right by you.
17:02Look where that has got you.
17:03Look where that has got you.
17:04You're sitting on a bench, when you look ten seconds away.
17:07Yeah, why?
17:09It's a bit harder than I thought we'd be.
17:11It was always gonna be.
17:12And it has happened so quick.
17:14Yeah, but Nicky was right. What she said was, wait.
17:17If we were gonna make it happen, we had to be quick.
17:21So this wasn't your idea at all?
17:26Anyway, Nigel's filled me this week, so...
17:29Exactly!
17:30You don't need this on top.
17:34Dad, I'm really worried about you.
17:49Has he croaked yet?
17:53Right, I'm gonna just leave this here, then.
17:57And what is it?
17:58It's a little outfit for Ivy.
18:00I was gonna bring it round and see what she looks like in it.
18:02But I absolutely will not set foot in there while he's around.
18:06I am just trying to support George here, all right?
18:09That is all.
18:10What? By watching him make one of the biggest mistakes of his life?
18:14That's good of you.
18:18I mean...
18:18I trust I don't know why you say that to her.
18:21Believe me, darling.
18:22I could say a lot worse.
18:36That was you.
18:37What are you doing?
18:40You're on my side.
18:42What?
18:42You are on my side.
18:43No.
18:43Your foot was on my side.
18:44No, it wasn't!
18:45Brad!
18:47I quit.
18:48You can't.
18:50That's two points to me and a penalty.
18:53Now you're on my side.
18:54Well, yeah, because you were on my side first.
18:55Josh, give me the ball.
18:56No, no, no, no.
18:57Give me the ball, man.
18:58Come and get it.
19:00Oh.
19:01Oh!
19:01So you're on his side now?
19:03What?
19:04Oh, no, it's cool.
19:05I'm just gonna have to take you both down.
19:06Well, you're mad.
19:07Nah, come on.
19:08I'm a pair of you.
19:09No.
19:09I'm here.
19:10Leave me alone.
19:11I'm there.
19:11Jasmine, I told you.
19:14Come on.
19:14Come on.
19:17Come on.
19:18Come on.
19:33Come on.
19:37She still ain't going for it.
19:39She will.
19:40I told you, if she wants to win the bet.
19:42She don't need to win no bet, Sam.
19:45Max has given her half the business anyway.
19:48What?
19:50Why?
19:52Too sorry for her, I suppose.
19:54She said she's not gonna take it, but...
19:57maybe after a couple days.
20:06It's Russell.
20:08I need to go and see him and just tell him straight that I can't do this and I need
20:11more time.
20:12Well, you might as well paint a big bullseye on your back.
20:14Well, it's better than painting it on Vicks, innit?
20:16Because if I don't do something, he's gonna go after her.
20:20Mark, Mark, just slow down, okay?
20:23Don't do anything rash.
20:29So much for being a criminal mastermind, eh?
20:33Yeah, well...
20:34At least it didn't double what he has to pay.
20:43Give me some good news.
20:47What?
20:48We're having a laugh, aren't they?
20:51No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
20:53I'll take it.
20:54But I need it by tomorrow.
20:56Well?
20:57Who went?
20:59I told you you didn't understand the rules.
21:01What's that?
21:02Oh!
21:03Simple question, then.
21:06Him or me?
21:07Who'd you like more?
21:08Mm-hmm.
21:13Jasmine!
21:15It's just because she's your girlfriend.
21:16That's not proper winning.
21:18Who cares?
21:19I still get my price.
21:20Ice cream with extra chocolate sauce.
21:21Mm-mm.
21:22That's it?
21:23She's done all this for a small Cornetto?
21:25Yeah.
21:25I mean, actually, it's fish and chips now.
21:28She'll be on a pier, but there's a good chip here in the Albert Square, so...
21:31Oh, you...
21:32You played this after I left?
21:34Mm-hmm.
21:36I just...
21:36I thought it was our game.
21:38Like, me and you...
21:39You played it with Sandra, too, yeah?
21:42It's just a game.
21:43It doesn't mean nothing.
21:45You know the world didn't stop turning just because, you know, you...
21:51Yeah.
21:52Yeah, you're right.
21:53Um, sorry.
21:53Ignore me.
21:54I'm just...
21:54I'm just being stupid.
21:55No, I didn't mean it like that.
21:55I'd better get back, actually.
21:57Sorry.
21:57No, stop. Jasmine.
21:58Jasmine.
21:58It's cool.
21:59It's cool.
21:59I'm good. It's cool.
22:00All right.
22:12We really can't catch a break in a minute, can we?
22:16What's this?
22:17That is the form that I filled in for the DWP for Jimmy.
22:22Oh, the carer's allowance.
22:23Yeah.
22:23Lauren, I did everything that they asked me to do.
22:25I put the stool down as my first job, and I put the PTE down as my second job.
22:29And I...
22:29Which I might not even be able to do PTE after.
22:32What's the problem, Peter?
22:35They've told me that what I'm earning right now is putting me over the threshold.
22:39Which is...
22:39Which is a joke, because it's peanuts.
22:41It's nothing.
22:43Stopping the allowance.
22:46Oh, and the nurse we called about Jimmy's place as well.
22:49They didn't say it in as many words, but basically if we can't afford it, there's...
22:53There's plenty of parents that can.
22:55Plenty of parents that can, yeah.
22:58Look, we can't ask my dad for help. He's already up against any, but...
23:03Could we ask Max?
23:04No.
23:05Lauren, this is for Jimmy.
23:06He did always say that he would help us out with fees, didn't he?
23:10And only until we can catch up.
23:11I'm gonna win my bet.
23:13When I do, I'll be partner.
23:15So...
23:17We won't have to ask my dad for nothing.
23:19I'm just gonna finish up for some paperwork.
23:24The funny thing was, it was literally the first place we went to...
23:27He's got the balls visiting from the other places, but we just kept...
23:42Well, Dad's blanking my calls now.
23:45Well, this can't go on for much longer, can it?
23:47That man is, like, seriously ill.
23:49It's not even like he's faking it.
23:50Oh, I wouldn't put it past him, though.
23:53You know, of course he ain't.
23:55But you didn't see my dad earlier on.
23:58I mean, what's he gonna be like in another week?
24:00Or month?
24:02He thinks that this is just gonna solve everything, but it's...
24:05It's opening up old wounds.
24:06Yeah, but you can't kick him out.
24:08Yeah. You can't kick him out.
24:11But one phone call.
24:14I mean, that's all it's gonna take.
24:16One call to the prison.
24:18Let them know what's really going on.
24:21He ain't allowed to live with my dad.
24:23He'll be back in the nick in no time.
24:28Yeah, but Georgie's got Nigel's funeral day after tomorrow.
24:31Okay, we all do.
24:32Do you really wanna open up a can of worms, like, right now?
24:37No.
24:41But once the funeral's out of the way...
24:52I'm an idiot.
24:54No, you won't.
24:56She knows what she's doing.
24:58It's the same as me.
25:00She's trying to be all cool and calm about things.
25:03Even yesterday, at the allotment, she's not cool and calm, not deep down.
25:09And me saying something like that, it's like...
25:11Yeah, but you didn't know.
25:13I did.
25:14It's the same for me.
25:15My mum...
25:17She was trying to help.
25:18Like, trying to take my mind off things after Jasmine left and then...
25:23Yeah, Jasmine is right.
25:24That game is ours and no one else ever really gets hit.
25:30Why are things always so complicated?
25:34Hey.
25:35Hey.
25:45Maybe I'd better go.
25:47Yeah.
25:49Maybe that's best.
25:53Don't wanna make things even more complicated, do we?
25:59Definitely not.
26:06There it is.
26:11Sorry.
26:24Can I join you?
26:31Hey.
26:40My mum sent me, uh, all my favourite steaks-side goodies.
26:51No, we can still do this, Mark.
26:54Can we?
26:57We're a team.
26:59We're a good team.
27:02So that mate of yours, his cars...
27:05Alright, I, uh...
27:07Is it still an offer?
27:11You say you could have one by tomorrow?
27:17But I don't think that this is, uh...
27:20No.
27:21No buts.
27:24Not anymore.
27:26Just call him.
27:33You sure about this?
27:35We're not beaten yet, Mark.
27:38Call him now.
27:39We'll be there, but...
27:42Yeah.
27:45Nope.
