00:02Darren! Darren, Morgan's gone!
00:03Call the police. Stay quiet and me and Dad will start looking out.
00:07And when I get out of here, I'm gonna be the best dad any kid has ever had.
00:13My life's nothing without my children.
00:15£10,000 for her return. 24 hours. No police. Oh, you'll regret it.
00:21Bet you're happy to see your brother again, aren't ya?
00:55I need you.
00:58$1,000, $1,000, $1,000, that's what I need.
01:01Well, I need a dollar, $1,000, $1,000, that's what I need.
01:07Said I need a dollar, $1,000, $1,000.
01:09They want the money by ten.
01:10We need to tell the police.
01:13Would you share your dollar with me?
01:17Bad times are coming.
01:18Mister, I need your help.
01:21Well, let me tell you something, all that bitters ain't gold.
01:27It's been a long, old trouble, long, old trouble.
01:30Guess who's 60 days sober?
01:32And I'm looking for somebody, come and help me carry this load.
01:36Legend, congratulations.
01:42We don't have time for this.
01:44They said no police.
01:45I'm not putting Morgan's safety at risk.
01:47Nancy, believe me.
01:48In cases like this, you trust the police, not the kidnapper.
01:51What if Dad's right, eh?
01:53What if we're just giving away our savings for nothing?
01:55I mean, we might not even have any money to pay the mortgage.
01:58The mortgage?
02:00Who cares about the mortgage?
02:01I need my daughter back.
02:03But I need my daughter back too, obviously.
02:04I have no idea if this is going to work, but we have to try.
02:08We have to go.
02:09We don't have time.
02:11Right, just sort all this out, yeah?
02:14Frankie, hide the money.
02:21Hey.
02:24The appeal.
02:26That's now.
02:27Yeah.
02:31So your pregnancy test came in positive?
02:34Yeah.
02:35But I read online that cancer can mess with the results,
02:38like make out you're pregnant when you're not.
02:40Is that true?
02:42That's extremely rare, particularly with bowel cancer,
02:45and you're in remission.
02:47OK, but there is a small chance that it could be wrong.
02:50You'd need to do an ultrasound to be certain you're pregnant.
02:53Right, can we do one then?
02:55I really shouldn't, not unless there's cause for concern.
02:58Please, Miss Bear.
02:59I'm asking as a mate.
03:04My shift hasn't officially started, so I could give you no...
03:07Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.
03:14What if you are pregnant?
03:18I'm not keeping this baby.
03:26Have a party, you know.
03:27You've done the 60 days, now you can do 600.
03:30Half of that's done.
03:31Every day is still a challenge, mate.
03:34Yeah, no, it's just been nice.
03:36He's strong enough at the minute, so he's choosing to be clean.
03:39But listen, the second that you're not feeling strong enough,
03:42you know you can come to us, don't you?
03:44Yeah.
03:47See, can I shout you for dinner or something?
03:50Just for helping me get here.
03:51You know, as my sponsor.
03:54Dylan, do you remember those inappropriate feelings that we spoke about?
03:58Yeah, they're gone.
04:00OK, I just wanted to say thank you.
04:02I thought you could do a cheering-up with Sienna missing, but...
04:05Lucas, you need to take the day off.
04:07You two need to spend some time together.
04:09Go and celebrate.
04:11Take a train to the beach.
04:12Will you not need me here?
04:13We haven't got any bookings, have we?
04:15But be careful.
04:17I know that threat from Clyde's people is probably just hot air, but still.
04:20Well, she's only angry at Rex for testifying.
04:22And you're not with him any more, so I'm sure I'll be fine.
04:24Go on.
04:42Hey, so it turns out I'm free for a couple of hours.
04:46And it looks like I'm going to have my flat all to ourselves.
04:58I hope so, yeah.
05:01Even though I loved our little holiday, you should be getting back to Mum and Dad really soon.
05:06But there's just something I need to get sorted first.
05:09Alright?
05:16So if you took Morgan, or you know who has, please call the anonymous tip line.
05:24This might be our only chance to get her back.
05:29Look, was that okay?
05:31Look, I just want to make sure I'm getting all the details right, you know?
05:35I just can't bear to think of her out there somewhere without us.
05:40Why don't you tell her about Morgan, Cass?
05:42Yeah, of course.
05:46Morgan is the most beautiful little soul.
05:51She loves fancy dress.
05:54Fairy tales.
05:58And feeding the ducks by the river with Dad.
06:02Please.
06:05I can't lose my little girl.
06:09That's great, guys.
06:11So, Nance, you want to try one with the two of you?
06:15Nonny, erm...
06:16Nancy's really not up to this.
06:19Er, get that version out, please.
06:21Will you have to?
06:24I have an appointment.
06:25Now?
06:26What's the appointment for?
06:28I don't think that's any of your business.
06:31What's in the bag, Nance?
06:33You know, how dare you?
06:34Just come into my house and start acting like you own the place.
06:38Especially when you stink of booze.
06:39Now, get out of my way, Donny.
06:40Look, Nance.
06:40Donny, let me go.
06:41Donny, I'm leaving this house!
06:43Nance, Nance!
06:43Don, I'm leaving this house!
06:44It's Nance's money.
06:45Darren!
06:46What? She needs to know!
06:47Why?
06:47So you've been in contact with someone claiming to be Morgan's kidnapper?
06:51Yes.
06:51And now I'm going to take this money to them.
06:53So get out of my way!
06:55I can't do that, Nancy.
06:57This could bring me my daughter back!
06:59So please, Donny, make a decision!
07:01You know, we would never advise cooperating with a ransom.
07:05But if you insist on putting your life in danger,
07:08then me and my team are going with you.
07:12So if you took Morgan,
07:14well, you know who has...
07:16Right!
07:18I'm back.
07:22Terrible news about Morgan.
07:24It's every parent's worst nightmare.
07:26Yeah.
07:26Yeah.
07:29I'm so sorry about Bobby.
07:33This might feel a little cold.
07:35It's okay.
07:47Okay.
07:49I can confirm the test you took was accurate.
07:54You are pregnant.
07:56Are you sure?
07:58Like, is there a heartbeat?
07:59It's not always detectable at this early stage, but yes, there is.
08:06Can you show me?
08:09Are you sure?
08:14Ready?
08:25Can I hear it?
08:27A heartbeat.
08:30A heartbeat.
08:50Lucas?
08:51Why's the hutch closed?
08:53Er...
08:53Well, it was quiet so my dad gave me the day off.
08:56I thought he was still working though.
08:57Do you know what?
08:57I haven't got time for this.
08:59Hey, I'm running round trying to sort this fundraising event out for Tony tomorrow.
09:02Does he need money before he's in prison?
09:04He needs a good lawyer so his kids can get the dad back.
09:07Hey, you better make sure it's all hands on deck in there tomorrow.
09:09I don't know.
09:11What's all that about?
09:13Still wanna go to the beach?
09:14It's up to you.
09:15It's your milestone.
09:17Are you okay?
09:18Wondering why your dad closed the restaurant?
09:22Look at dinner and I saw how you were looking at my dad.
09:25And how you asked him out for dinner.
09:28I know what it's all about.
09:32He knows what you're dinner with and I don't.
09:35And as much as I wanna talk about your addiction, I...
09:38I can't.
09:39It just...
09:39It makes me think about the girl that you hooked up with and how...
09:42Well, you wanted to be with someone else other than me.
09:46We don't have to talk.
09:49Why don't we sack off the beach?
09:51And just spend the day at home.
09:53Me and you.
09:54Sounds messed up.
09:55Okay.
09:56Well, I'm just gonna sign off for delivery at the kiosk.
09:59Why don't you go and get us some snacks and stuff and I'll meet you at home.
10:04Hey.
10:07I know I messed up.
10:08Okay, now I've got my head screwed on.
10:11Lucas, I only want you.
10:23Oh.
10:25A hoodie.
10:27Interesting choice for you.
10:30Well, didn't want anyone recognising me, did I?
10:34Well...
10:36I'm the only scally round here.
10:39So get your own luck.
10:40Oh, yeah?
10:41And what are you gonna do about it, lad?
10:47Hang on.
10:48You are fit and all, but what is that smell?
10:53Erm...
10:54It's homemade lasagna.
10:56I'm cooking.
10:58Wait, have we got time for all of this?
11:00Yep.
11:01Now Leela's got baby James.
11:03Lucas is out with Dylan.
11:05All day.
11:05And I meant what I said.
11:08I wanna make it up to ya.
11:09Yeah.
11:14And talking of the food.
11:17It still needs 20 more minutes in the oven.
11:19Fancy a starter.
11:22And what'd you prefer if I kept the hoodie on?
11:27I prefer you...
11:28to stop talking.
11:36You're still together?
11:57Drop confirmed.
11:58Maintain vigil on the bin.
12:11Listen, I know you didn't want it to play out like this.
12:13But Donny's team are trained for it, okay?
12:15If the kidnapper comes for the money, they're gonna get them.
12:18I sent it.
12:20Can't wait to see who this lowlife is.
12:31Hey.
12:32Hi, sorry, I've not had a chance to talk.
12:34I was just wondering what the latest is.
12:36The kidnapper asked for a ransom.
12:38Dad and Nancy just went to drop it off.
12:41Have they told the police yet?
12:42Yeah, officers are watching it right now.
12:44Hopefully this creep is stupid enough to fall through.
12:49I've gotta go.
12:49Wait.
12:51Charlie, are you not gonna come back?
12:54Charlie?
13:05You said Dad's going home.
13:08I know.
13:10I'd take you back to run with Dad now if I could, but...
13:13it's not up to me.
13:16I don't get it.
13:17Do you want Claire's people to come after us?
13:18We've been careful.
13:19Well, I caught you, didn't I?
13:21So you've not been careful enough.
13:23I should probably go.
13:34Don't look at me like that.
13:37Rex deserves to rebuild his life.
13:41You don't know how supportive he's been while I've been worrying about Sienna.
13:45Right, I don't have time for this.
13:47Okay, Lucas is on his way here.
13:49I'll go meet him in the park, something is dead.
13:51Why are you meeting him?
13:53Are you gonna tell him?
13:55No.
13:56Lucas cannot know about Rex.
13:58Listen to me, you are not the only one who struggled lately.
14:00If he finds out about this, he would not cope.
14:04Is it Donny?
14:06What's he said?
14:08I said no police.
14:10Well, that's not possible.
14:12How has he found out?
14:13We called Donny, find out what happened.
14:16We've got the police on our side now.
14:18Don't!
14:18Don't what?
14:19Donny, leave it.
14:20Donny needs to know what's going on.
14:22Oh, what, the man that just messed all this up?
14:24Like I said he was going to.
14:26Why couldn't you give me the one thing I'd ask for, Darren?
14:29We didn't have a choice, did we?
14:30He was on to us.
14:31You don't get it, do you?
14:33They're gonna think that they can't get money from us now.
14:36And if they can't get money from us, then what good is Morgan to them?
14:42Why would you say such a thing?
14:44If you had kept your mouth shut, I might have been able to get there
14:47and Morgan might be home already.
14:49We don't know that.
14:50No, Darren, we don't know that.
14:52And we never will because of you.
14:53Oh, because of me?
14:54Yes!
14:55You know what, because of me, we've done an appeal.
14:57Now people are out searching for her and we might find her.
15:00You don't know that.
15:01You know, you are so controlling, aren't you?
15:03You won't let anyone else help you.
15:05Well, I'm Morgan's dad, don't forget that.
15:07Well, maybe Morgan's dad has just blown any chance of ever getting her back alive.
15:15Darren.
15:17Darren.
15:24You fancy going to the B&B again for another night?
15:26We can have pizza again for tea.
15:39I'm not resting until I found Morgan, OK?
15:41We've got to keep searching.
15:42Anne, you need to eat.
15:44You need to keep your strength up for Morgan and not hungry, all right?
15:47Oh, come on, Darren.
15:49You're not taking to heart what Nancy said to you.
15:51She was scared.
15:52You were her first target and she took it out on you.
15:54Now, come on!
15:55Hey.
15:56You had any leads from your press thing?
15:58Eh, no, not that food.
16:00Oh.
16:00Nobody told us that kids were going to literally break our hearts, did they?
16:04Can I say just give me two menus, please?
16:06Darren, you need to eat!
16:07We kind of do.
16:08Two menus, please.
16:09Two beers, one for yourself.
16:11Because you've not had it easy lately, either.
16:13Oh, I'm going to give it to Miss Jack.
16:15I'm starting a health kick today.
16:21Hey.
16:21You are a good parent to Morgan, you know.
16:25Thanks.
16:36Come on.
16:37Shh!
16:41Well, now, you can finally get your big surprise.
16:44OK, I'm just going to go.
16:45Oh, I'm going to go.
16:46Yes, I'm going.
16:50Not good.
17:03Handy.
17:06Handy.
17:07Hey, this is a good 나타� someone whoilipp 맛있어요.
17:08hecho?
17:13No matter how close, it's empty.
17:14It's not a great place that could propute them.
17:15Hey, don't you believe that it is me?
18:03I'm sorry, I know it's late.
18:05If you're here to give me excuses about your teen's ineptitude, save your breath.
18:10No excuses. I'm just sorry that it didn't go our way.
18:15Here's the money back.
18:19Our forensic results are in too.
18:23We checked the trace of the blood that we found here against your DNA samples and there.
18:28It was Morgan's blood.
18:31What are they doing to my baby?
18:35The analysis showed that Morgan's blood type is A, but yours is O and Darren's is B.
18:48Is Darren Morgan's father?
18:51Well, a child abduction is often carried out by a known person.
18:54So if Morgan's biological father's out then...
18:57No, no, that's not possible.
18:59How can you be so sure?
19:02Look, Nance, I would do my very best to keep it private.
19:06Trust me, I get that some things need to stay buried.
19:12For everyone's sake.
19:14I always knew there was a chance that Darren wasn't Morgan's father.
19:21But the man who must be, he couldn't have taken Morgan.
19:25He doesn't even know that he's her dad.
19:29Who is it, Nance?
19:42It's Tony Hutchinson.
20:05She loves fancy dress, fairy tales, and feeding the ducks by the river with dad.
20:16Please.
20:18I can't lose my little girl.
20:21We're out of Washington, Carla. I'm going to go home.
20:35Right, I'll see you at the fundraiser.
20:41Dylan.
20:44Do you want to tell me why you kissed me last night?
20:53Do you want to raise a safe, my dad?
20:55Tony's a good man.
20:57I'll be there.
21:08I haven't finished fixing it yet.
21:14You've got it all wrong.
21:17OK, you were flat out when we got back last night. You must have dreamt it.
21:20Nope.
21:21I didn't dream it.
21:23I know exactly what happened.
21:27I thought we'd put this to bed.
21:31I can kind of understand that sometimes people fancy someone that's older.
21:36This isn't some schoolboy crush.
21:38Then what is it, Dylan?
21:40Because, as far as I'm aware, you're supposed to be in love with Lucas.
21:44I am in love with Lucas.
21:47But you get me.
21:51Yesterday when I got my 60-day chip, you were so proud of me.
21:54Dylan, stop.
21:55Lucas doesn't get it.
21:57Doesn't get how hard it is to just stop using.
22:00OK, but you...
22:01I just said stop it, Dylan!
22:03What is it, Rex?
22:03Rex, you know he's no good for you.
22:08OK, you can't trust him but me and you.
22:10There is no me and you.
22:12And there never will be.
22:13So whatever sick fantasy you've got going on, it ends now.
22:18He's supposed to be me son's world.
22:21And he should be a priority, so if he's not, then...
22:23But you tell him that I kissed you.
22:25Or that you're back with Rex.
22:27Yeah, yeah, maybe I'll get in there first.
22:29I'm sure he'd love that.
22:31Wow.
22:33Fuck, Neil.
22:37Get out.
22:38Because the last bit of respect he had for you has gone down the toilet.
22:41You're on your own.
22:47Donnie, I need to talk to you about Morgan.
22:50We're doing everything we can, Nance.
22:51If you just let us handle the ransom by ourselves,
22:54Morgan might be home by now.
22:56Instead, she's God knows where with God knows who.
22:59I can't lose my little girl.
23:02And after what I told you yesterday, I...
23:04I don't know what to do.
23:07You know, secrets will come back no matter how deep we try to bury them.
23:11Maybe it's best that Darren hears from you that Tony's Morgan's dead.
23:36Hey!
23:39Morning, sleepyhead.
23:40Help! Somebody help me!
23:42You're wasting your breath.
23:43I made sure this place is completely soundproof!
23:47Hungry?
23:49You don't feel very well.
23:51Oh.
23:53OK. Well, eat. Don't eat. It's up to you.
24:21Oh, Jez?
24:23Um, any update on CNN?
24:26Nothing.
24:28It doesn't make any sense, does it?
24:30Sports are clear as well. She's in bits.
24:32But I told her, no news is good news.
24:35Look, I'm sorry, but I really should be getting to the fundraiser.
24:38It should be her best, mate.
24:39And I know it shouldn't work, but it does.
24:42Because, yes, she gives off those princess fights,
24:43but deep down,
24:45I just refuse to believe that she's gone.
24:49It's been days.
24:50I know none of us want to believe it,
24:52but the reality is she couldn't have survived in that water.
24:56The police, they never found her,
24:58so she must be out there somewhere.
24:59My daughter's dead.
25:00See?
25:02It pains me to say it, but...
25:05we all need to face the fact that...
25:08none of us are going to see her again.
25:22want to try some bake-off-level cakes?
25:24They're all homemade.
25:25How about a wash and wax for your four-wheel friend?
25:27Tony would have served half his sentence by the time I get my drink.
25:31Hey, we're just trying to scrape some cash together
25:33to hire Tony and Topple, are you?
25:35Um, yeah, it seems to love you.
25:36I was supposed to be meeting him here.
25:37No, I haven't, sorry, love.
25:38Hey, are you here to me?
25:41Hey!
25:42What can I do to help?
25:44Oh, I don't think we've been introduced.
25:46Froggy Black.
25:47Jeremy Black, nice to meet you.
25:48Hi.
25:49Oh, Jez, you didn't have to come.
25:50Not with everything that's going on with Sienna.
25:53Well, I wanted to help.
25:55We must remain strong.
25:58Listen, Diane, I was thinking you could auction my gardening services,
26:02if you want.
26:03That'd be great.
26:03I mean, we all know that Tony just made a terrible mistake,
26:06but he's a good man.
26:07A good man?
26:09Yeah, he killed my son
26:11and left him a dying middle at road.
26:14You see, Jez, come on, we're sorry for...
26:16Except you're not, I, Diane.
26:18Cos you wouldn't be doing all this,
26:20eating, drinking, stuffing your faces
26:22while my son's dead.
26:23Look, it was an accident, OK?
26:25Tony had no idea he'd even hit Bobby.
26:27He's not a murderer.
26:28No.
26:30But he lied, didn't he?
26:31Yeah, if he...
26:32Why didn't he just admit to it straight away?
26:34Go to police.
26:37I want yous to enjoy your party.
26:40I want to choke.
26:55Dylan?
27:00I'm sorry.
27:04Come here.
27:06Come on.
27:11It's OK.
27:17Sadie's...
27:19Look...
27:19Are you OK?
27:20No.
27:21No, I'm not.
27:22I'm sorry.
27:23What are you sorry for?
27:25It was Tony who killed my son
27:27and now your mother is doing a fundraiser
27:29so he can slime his way out of getting punished.
27:31You lied because of me.
27:38I contemplated taking my own life
27:40not long ago
27:42and ever since then
27:42my parents have been tipped on around
27:44not wanting to worry or upset me
27:45just in case.
27:47I...
27:49Look, it's my fault he didn't own up to what happened.
27:51No.
27:52So if you want to blame anyone
27:53then you should be blaming me.
27:53Listen, you are not to blame, OK?
27:57I'm so sorry about everything he took from you.
28:00But he's a good dad.
28:10Don't go mad.
28:11Please.
28:12Frankie!
28:13Is that Morgan?
28:15Morgan!
28:17Morgan!
28:19Hi.
28:19Are you OK?
28:21I have missed you so, so, so much.
28:23Are you all right?
28:24Yeah?
28:25Of course she is.
28:27OK, I'm going to be right back.
28:29I just need to speak to Charlie.
28:35You have had her all of this time!
28:37Why?
28:38I was desperate.
28:39Do you know that Nancy and Dad
28:40are this close
28:41to thinking that the little girl
28:42wasn't coming home?
28:44Look, I know you hate me right now
28:46but I need your help, Frankie.
28:48I need that ten grand
28:49or I'm dead.
28:52I know.
28:53I am so sorry.
28:54I'll give you a discount
28:55next time you visit.
29:00You should have left me where I was.
29:05You know, every day
29:06has been a struggle
29:07to stay off drugs.
29:10And I finally thought
29:11I was getting somewhere
29:12but this is what I do.
29:13I'm...
29:14I'm weak.
29:15No, you're not.
29:16You're in recovery
29:17which takes strength
29:19and courage.
29:21And I shouldn't have lost it
29:22at you this morning.
29:24So I'm sorry.
29:24You can't tell anyone
29:26I've relapsed.
29:31It's Lucas.
29:32I can't talk to him like this.
29:35Steve, you can't know
29:36I've relapsed.
29:52You know, I don't deserve him.
29:54I should just end things with him
29:56let him move on.
29:57No.
29:58You can't do that.
30:00Come on, you can't.
30:01You're the only one
30:01that keeps him stable.
30:02Please, Dylan.
30:03Listen.
30:04I know that bad things
30:05have happened to you.
30:07But you can't let those things
30:08define you.
30:10That
30:10kind,
30:11handsome,
30:12cocky lad
30:12is still in here.
30:13You can't give up on him.
30:16I haven't.
30:21You always know what to say.
30:24Tell me what I should do.
30:29I can't.
30:33Yes.
30:37You can.
30:44Daddy, you in there?
30:46No.
30:48No.
30:51No.
30:52No.
30:56Come on.
30:58I'm taking you straight to her knee.
31:03Darren?
31:07Nothing.
31:15I think she's gone.
31:20I would say that.
31:22Hey, I don't ever say that,
31:24all right?
31:27Darren, I have to tell you,
31:29when the police were here
31:30and they were sweeping the house
31:31for DNA,
31:34I didn't know.
31:36Didn't know what?
31:37I'm so sorry.
31:40Who's that?
31:41Morgan!
31:44Oh, my God!
31:46Where was she?
31:47Oh, my God.
31:48Who had her?
31:49Who had her?
31:52It was me.
31:55I kidnapped Morgan.
32:02We have to stop meeting like this.
32:05People will talk.
32:11Number one rule.
32:12When the missus calls,
32:14you answer.
32:16But let's face it.
32:18You broke that a long time ago.
32:20Didn't you?
32:22Decent bird, that miss bar.
32:24Don't you mention her name.
32:25You did more than that to me.
32:34I need to know.
32:37You've planned and unblurred my life.
32:40Ruined everything that built up these past 20 years.
32:44That depends.
32:47On what?
32:49Make new friends.
32:51Keep the old.
32:52One is silver.
32:54The other gold.
32:56See you around.
32:59Detective.
33:08Nice to see, D-Valley's finest.
33:09Hard at work.
33:10Drop dead, Claire.
33:12Better not get too close to a naked flame.
33:14He's in this whole place up in smoke.
33:17Your granddad been shooting us, Malthus.
33:19I won't let you or anybody else
33:22talk to my life, you understand?
33:24Let go.
33:25Let go.
33:38Why are you on?
33:40I've just come back to get me medication.
33:42I forgot it this morning.
33:44Yeah.
33:45Talk about the hutch earlier.
33:47Oh, yeah?
33:49I know, Dad.
33:54Lucas.
33:56I don't know what you think you're sold.
33:58No, it's pretty clear to me.
33:59Dillard.
33:59No, just stop lying to me!
34:07You seem Mexican, aren't you?
34:08I don't know what you think you're supposed to be.
34:10No, I'm sorry.
34:14No, I'm sorry.
34:15I don't know.
34:16I'm sorry.
34:20No, I'm sorry.
34:43You and Rex. You thought people were after us, but you kept seeing him.
34:47I have tried to stay away from him, Lucas. But I can't.
34:51Well, we kept it a secret so no one would find out. I wouldn't have let that gang get
34:54anywhere near you. Wouldn't you have? What would you have done about it, Dad?
34:59What would you have done? No one was ever even after us.
35:06What? It was me. You staged the break-in. It was you that left that wreath. Lucas.
35:17I thought our entire family was at risk. And you still hooked up with him. Instead of protecting
35:22me, instead of protecting our family. I'm going to need you to calm down.
35:34Lucas. Come on. We're not doing this again. No! Close the door! No! Dad! Get off me! Get off me!
35:48Get off me, Lucas! I said stop! Get off me!
36:08I know that I haven't always done things right. I just need you to know that I really tried.
36:15I didn't try. I did try.
36:19Yeah!
36:34Lucas.
36:54No! Lucas!
36:57No!
37:00No!
37:02No!
37:04Get off!
37:04Ah!
37:05Lucas!
37:05No!
37:06No!
37:07I wish you were dead.
37:09No!
37:09And I wish you'd never been born!
37:29Don't do anything stupid, no more now, okay?
37:35No, no more!
37:41Cielo, you alive?
37:43What?
37:45No.
37:49No, quickies, come here!
37:51No, no, no, Steve!
37:54No, Steve, Steve, you can't be in here.
38:05Dan!
38:07We need to hide from Lucas!
38:08Get down!
38:09Steve!
38:10Steve!
38:10Steve!
38:11Steve!
38:11Dad, come back!
38:13Shh, shh, shh, shh!
38:18Oh, where are you?
38:24I thought that you...
38:27What's happened to you?
38:28Steve, Steve, we can't be here.
38:30We can't be leaving.
38:31Steve, we can't be leaving.
38:33Come on!
38:34Come on!
38:40Hmm.
38:44I see we've got company.
38:48How nice.
39:06Nothing here to say just a kid out me Trying to cut some tea, Trying to figure it out
39:14Nothing better to do when I'm stuck on you
39:17I'm still, I'm here trying to figure it out
39:23Getting hard to sleep, blood is in my dreams
39:26Something's killing me, trying to figure it out
39:32Nothing better to do when I'm stuck on you
39:35I'm still in here trying to figure it out
39:47Quite the unexpected reunion, isn't it?
39:53Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, I missed you
39:55I missed you so, so much, let me look at you
40:00I don't believe this
40:03This whole time we've been going out of our minds
40:05And it was you
40:07Did you feel safe? Where have you been sleeping?
40:10Do you really think I wouldn't have looked after her while she was with me?
40:13You didn't know what to think, Charlie
40:15You know, that's what happens when you do something as stupid as this
40:19I know
40:19And I'm sorry
40:21You're sorry, are you?
40:22The parents of missing schoolgirl Morgan Osborne
40:25Do you know what, Morgan?
40:27Let's go
40:29And get your fresh open
40:30Have you got anything you want to say to Charlie?
40:32Nope, nothing
40:34Huh, cos I do
40:37Cos I do
40:41What do you need £10,000 for, eh?
40:43I mean, that was the money you demanded for our daughter, right?
40:46I was in debt
40:48Have you any idea
40:51What it feels like to think you might never see your kid again?
40:55In fact, you do, you know
40:56I know you do
40:58You saw my face that day
41:00And you tried to commit
41:01Mike, I get it
41:01You don't get it, though, do you?
41:03That's what we've been feeling every single minute of every day because of you
41:07Darren
41:08I've just spoken to the police
41:10I've told them that Charlie brought Morgan home
41:12They want us to go down there and explain the situation
41:15I was desperate
41:17You must know that I wouldn't have hurt Morgan
41:20I do
41:23Let's just hope the police see it that way, too, eh?
41:29Steve
41:31Steve, Steve
41:31Wait
41:33I don't understand
41:35I'm supposed to be one of your best mates
41:37And you've just had me think that you're dead
41:38Steve, please, we have to leave, we have to go
41:39No, it's not just about me
41:41It's Dodger as well
41:42He's going out of his mind
41:44Cleo, too
41:45And Sophie and Sebastian
41:47And I know for a fact she would never leave those kids unless she was in trouble
41:53Are you gonna say anything?
41:54Well, I think it's best coming from Sienna
41:57Steve, please, please, we have to go
41:58What, if you're in trouble, just tell me!
42:00I can help you!
42:02We both can!
42:03Can't we?
42:04Absolutely
42:07Steve, if you wanna help, you have to leave right now
42:17Please, he doesn't know anything
42:19Just go
42:20Just go!
42:25No
42:27I'm not going anywhere
42:29Until you tell me what's going on here
42:57All that time you spent pursuing Alistair
42:59Why?
43:00Was it ever really to take down his operation?
43:02Or were you just jealous?
43:03Don't flatter yourself
43:05You were never the prize
43:08You're just a woman who helped him exploit young people
43:11Still are
43:11Well, if this is my punishment, then quite frankly I think the police need a better deterrent
43:16This was a mistake
43:18You were much more attractive when you weren't tormented in guilt
43:23You don't know me
43:28I know you better than I did an hour ago
43:31And I know that now, you're thinking, what are you gonna tell Misbah?
43:36And now you're thinking, what am I gonna tell Misbah?
43:43Well, Claire, don't make any waste of me that it already is
43:46Oh, come on
43:48You can beg better than that
43:53Relax
43:55Any more fun with you would just be greedy
44:00Do you send him my love, though?
44:17I ended up buying some stuff on a payment plan
44:20Nothing big, but they just make it proper easy
44:24And then I ended up getting myself into a bit of a hole
44:29So I got into crypto investing
44:31And then it went south and the hole just got bigger and bigger
44:36So the money I've been sending you, the money you said you needed for food
44:41You've been spending it on computer money
44:43No, Grandad, it's like gambling
44:46So instead of being at a roulette table, watching the wheel go round
44:51You watch these lines go up and down
44:54Darren, if this is an addiction
44:56You of all people should empathise with that
44:58Why don't you just talk to me, then?
45:02And if this is an addiction, I can give you all the help you need to recover
45:06But part of recovery is accountability
45:08Isn't that right, Dad?
45:09Darren, I'm just as angry as you are
45:11But Morgan's safe
45:13And despite his best efforts, Charlie's got a future
45:16We need to talk to Nancy before we endanger that
45:18Yeah, I mean, he'd have to drop out of trade school for a start
45:23I got kicked out
45:24Oh
45:26I had low attendance
45:28Look
45:29I just ended up smoking a lot and my course leader said that
45:34You know what, I don't care how high you were
45:36What your course leader said, or even your payday parasites
45:39There's no excuse
45:40No one forced you to kidnap Morgan, did they?
45:47You know what you don't get enough of in them pills?
45:49It's iron
45:50And to me that's like the most important part of the multivitamin
45:53And it's not even in most of them
45:54And you need that free energy
45:56Especially if you're hitting the gym or whatever
45:58Magnesium's good and zinc
46:02Are they vitamins?
46:04Do you know it's a good job you're good looking
46:06I mean you've not stopped talking about supplements
46:08Since we left the restaurant
46:09Sorry
46:11Talk too much when I'm nervous
46:13Don't be nervous
46:14I'm sure you go on loads of dates
46:16Yeah, sure but
46:20Never with someone so
46:23Together
46:24Thanks again for agreeing to today
46:26Yeah, I was gonna ask sooner but
46:29One sec
46:31Guys
46:33FYI, seeing yous together normally is
46:35Way less weird than whatever that was
46:38Saz
46:39Listen, we were gonna tell you that we're
46:41Dating
46:42I know, it's fine
46:44Bit weird but it's fine
46:45Yeah, I'm on my way
46:47Yeah, I'm really excited
46:49I'll see you soon
46:51Sounds like we're not the only ones on a date
46:54Do you know what it's been like?
46:56Watching your family traipsing about the village
46:58Mourning you
46:58I know, I know
47:00How can I face them now knowing that I've seen you?
47:02I know, Steve
47:03If there was any other way
47:04Since you're sticking around
47:05Do you want some tea?
47:06Oh, something stalker if you like
47:07I don't want a drink
47:09And I don't know how you could be so calm either
47:11Cause once the police find out
47:12You're gonna be in trouble and all
47:13Really?
47:15Sienna
47:16I'm your mate
47:17Please
47:19Just let me help you
47:20I am trying to help you
47:21Stop talking about the police
47:22Stop talking about everything
47:23And just
47:24Go
47:28Okay
47:31I've got stuff to do anyway
47:40There's no
47:49No
47:50No
48:05No
48:06No
48:07No
48:07What's happened?
48:08I, um, we had an argument, I saw.
48:12OK.
48:13What about?
48:15Well, him and Rex part together.
48:18Dylan!
48:20Congratulations.
48:21I heard you had 60 days clean yesterday.
48:28Yeah, it's really not a big deal.
48:30Oh, well, that's just not true, is it?
48:32We're all proud of you.
48:34I thought you and Donny were supposed to be having dinner.
48:37Oh, um, I think he had to pop back into work.
48:41But that means I can cook for you instead.
48:44Oh, OK, is that supposed to be a threat?
48:46Oh, er, I promise I will follow the recipe.
48:50Well, my esteemed company, you will have.
48:53OK?
48:55Lucas, you hungry?
48:56What?
48:57Er, yeah.
48:58Yeah, yeah, yeah, that'd be great, yeah.
49:02Just give me one second.
49:12Go on, er.
49:13He's alive!
49:17Boy's got nine lives.
49:19Like his grubby little cat.
49:21But he said he's my friend.
49:22Well, your friend wouldn't be here if he hadn't tried to escape.
49:27But that won't happen again.
49:29No, you stay away from him!
49:31Sienna.
49:32Look, you have my word.
49:34I'm not gonna hurt Steve.
49:35I don't believe you.
49:38Irrelevant.
49:47So let me understand this correctly, Charlie.
49:50You took Morgan because you thought...
49:51That Darren and Nancy was on holiday.
49:55Darren and I had a conversation, but...
49:58Well, I was drunk.
50:00But I could have sworn that he asked me to mind Morgan for a bit.
50:03When exactly was this conversation?
50:05It must have been a couple of days before she went missing.
50:09So nobody contacted you, let you know what's happening?
50:11No.
50:13I've not long changed my number, so they must have panicked and misses my old one.
50:17You didn't contact me either, so...
50:18Well, we thought Nancy was...
50:25Sorry.
50:27Erm...
50:27The ransom demand.
50:29Erm...
50:30I just thought that that must be some hoax from someone who saw the story on the news.
50:35You must get that a lot.
50:36Yeah.
50:37Some people get off on them, unfortunately.
50:43Look, if you're busy, I can get out your hair.
50:45I'm embarrassed enough as it is, and Darren and Nancy are fuming with me, obviously.
50:49Well, you did put them through a lot, accidents are no accidents.
50:53But I've got other things to deal with, so we'll leave it here for now.
50:56And look, again, I'm so sorry for the confusion.
51:00A lot of resources were wasted on the stage, Charlie.
51:04So we'll be around with some further questions, okay?
51:07One of my officers will show you what.
51:17No, it's fine. Erm...
51:19I can hear she's really busy, it's just...
51:22It's been a while and...
51:23I thought it might have been nice.
51:26Yeah.
51:28Yeah, can you, erm, just get her to call me?
51:29Whenever she's free?
51:32Yes, and, listen, I've really got to go.
51:34Alright, bye.
51:39Pez, you alright?
51:40Yeah, I'm fine.
51:42What's up?
51:44Nothing, I'm just, I'm leaving.
51:45Have you been stood up?
51:50Listen, we heard you on the phone earlier.
51:54Look, whoever stood you up, right?
51:55Whoever you were supposed to be meeting, they should be ashamed, not you.
51:57Haven't been stood up, Mum.
52:00Just cos you're living your teenage dream doesn't mean we all are.
52:03What's that supposed to mean?
52:04It means maybe I have slightly higher priorities
52:07than skipping round the village with some jacked midlife crisis, Mum.
52:11Right, Pez.
52:13You are not my midlife crisis.
52:15All I heard was jacked.
52:17Thought she was alright with us going out.
52:19Yeah, well, maybe it's not about us.
52:27The Wanderer returns!
52:28Nice of you to pop in.
52:31Unfortunately, I've only made enough for four,
52:34and Vicky's just called to say she's on her way home, so...
52:37Sorry, babe, I got dragged back into work.
52:40You said you had some time beforehand, you said you'd make time.
52:43I know, I know, something else came up and I just...
52:45You've been dreaming.
52:46Didn't I just say I've been in work?
52:48Don't talk to me like that in my own home, Donny.
52:53I always thought it was our home.
52:56It hasn't felt like it recently.
53:03After you kept your many problems from me, we said,
53:06no more secrets.
53:08And there aren't any.
53:09I promise.
53:13Listen, er...
53:14I'll go and jump in the shower.
53:16Come and join you for dinner.
53:20whether I've got a plate or not.
53:29I am sorry.
53:38Hey.
53:39Hey.
53:41Where's...
53:42Your midlife crisis.
53:44He's at the gym.
53:46I'm really sorry for saying that, Mum.
53:49It's fine.
53:50Come sit down.
53:51Tell them what's going on.
53:56It's not you having the crisis, Mum.
53:58It's me.
54:00Why?
54:03I wasn't on a date.
54:04I was trying to talk to Steph.
54:07And then her friends came in and her face just...
54:09...lit up.
54:11You know, she was just...
54:13...mainly talking to them.
54:15And every so often, she'd remember I was there.
54:18Pay a bit of attention.
54:21Just feel like a TV show she's lost interest in.
54:23Yeah, well, Pez, that's tweens for you.
54:26You know, you were...
54:27No, we're very different.
54:28I grew up with two mums.
54:31She barely even has one.
54:33Listen.
54:34You have got all the time
54:36to be twice the mum I ever was to you.
54:39PHONE RINGS
54:42PHONE RINGS
54:45Hello?
54:49Yeah?
54:51Kate.
54:52It's Longmare.
54:53Tom wants to see you tomorrow.
54:55What, now he's ready to see me?
54:57But if you're serious about wanting your family to work...
55:00...then seeing him would be a good start.
55:11What have I told you about not picking up when I call you?
55:17I've...
55:17I've been at the police station.
55:21They found me with Morgan.
55:24Have you said my name so much as once?
55:26I didn't.
55:27They don't know you knew.
55:28And Darren and Nancy don't either.
55:30Well, let's hope it stays that way.
55:32They'll forgive you.
55:35They're soft like that.
55:37In the meantime...
55:39...I've got another way for you to clear off your debt.
55:43Where does Darren keep this CCTV for the garage?
55:46I don't know.
55:48Please don't involve him in this.
55:50All I want from Darren is today's footage.
55:54The garage was unlocked earlier, so clearly security isn't a primary concern.
55:58Now off you go.
55:59Be a good boy.
56:11Hmm, damn.
56:15There.
56:30Ah...
56:36Steve, Steve, please, Steve, can you hear me?
56:46Steve.
56:47Are you okay?
56:48What happened?
56:50Yes.
56:50Come on.
56:54I'm so sorry.
56:58Listen to me.
57:00Just as a serial killer.
57:03What?
57:05He killed Dilly and then his son Bobby.
57:08Help!
57:09Somebody help us!
57:10We can get your hopes up.
57:12Something of a disco up there.
57:14No, this isn't happening.
57:15I know.
57:16Crazy, isn't it?
57:17I mean, who would have thought Patrick was the lesser of two evils?
57:22Just let me go.
57:24I'm not going to say anything.
57:26They always say that at the end.
57:27Please.
57:29I've got kids.
57:31I've heard that one before too.
57:32No!
57:33You promised!
57:33You promised that you wouldn't have hurt him!
57:35And I told you the truth.
57:37I'm not going to kill Steve.
57:40You are.
57:47There.
58:03You are.
58:06There.
58:07You'll find a person who is a war.
58:07There.
58:07You are.
58:07I've got kids.
58:08You are.
58:08You are.
58:11There.
