00:40Okay, so that's booked.
00:41Just send me a confirmation email.
00:44Thank you.
00:45Have a nice day.
00:48Friday the 27th.
00:50Friday the 27th, yeah.
00:52Shame we couldn't get a Saturday.
00:54Oh, yeah, but people can turn it into a long weekend,
00:57can't they?
00:58Good thought.
01:00But still, Friday the 27th of September
01:02sounds like a good day to get married.
01:06Hey, your divorce will have gone through by then.
01:08Absolutely.
01:09Are you sure?
01:09I'm so sure.
01:10I'm going to transfer a five grand deposit right now.
01:14You've split the costs, yeah?
01:16Well, I don't want your dad to feel bad.
01:18All he wants is for me to be happy.
01:21Well, all I want is for you to be happy.
01:25Hey, we'd better get started on our vows then.
01:28Vows?
01:29I'm happy with the traditional love
01:31and cherish stuff, aren't you?
01:33Well, yeah, but it's our one chance
01:35to express our feelings in front of our friends and family,
01:38in front of God.
01:39I thought you'd want the traditional things.
01:41In sickness and in health, till death do us part.
01:43You can't get much bigger than that.
01:45I do want tradition.
01:46I just, I want it to be personal too.
01:49You know, I want it to be special.
01:52It will be, I promise.
01:56Right, we better get a wriggle on.
01:57I told Bethany I'd meet her in a cafe later.
01:59Well, I'm not sure about encouraging
02:01her amateur detective thing, Joel.
02:03I want the police to find Lauren too, but I don't know.
02:07Plus, we have got a whole list of jobs to start.
02:09I mean, it's not just the vows.
02:11There are guest lists, menus.
02:12You've got to try on some top hats.
02:15Well, first, I represented Nathan, the man who raped her,
02:17so I feel like I owe her.
02:18And second, me in a top hat.
02:22You're just doing your job.
02:24I love that you care about people.
02:27And if we find her, that absolutely
02:28nails Roy's innocence.
02:30You're a good man.
02:32I try.
02:33And that is exactly why I am marrying you
02:36on Friday the 27th of September.
02:39Why don't you put that in your vows?
02:42Yeah, I'm going to the hospital in a bit to pick him up.
02:45OK.
02:45Well, I can give you a lift if you like.
02:47Oh, thanks, but I'm just going to take the water.
02:49Oh, are you?
02:50Well, park the far side of the car park,
02:52because nobody likes parking near the scapes of Sting, woman.
02:55Oh, thanks for the tip.
02:56You know, I just still can't get my head around how she
02:59could put Roy through this.
03:00I mean, how can she be so selfish?
03:02Don't get me started.
03:05Morning, boss.
03:07Oh, you're early today.
03:08Oh, mum just dropped me off.
03:10Her idea, not mine.
03:11She likes an early start, so much to do.
03:13Missing girls, assaulted local boys.
03:17There you go.
03:18Thanks.
03:19Do you mind if I have some brekkie in here
03:20before I come into work?
03:22Aye, yeah, go on.
03:23Uh, except I have no money.
03:30Nina, tell Roy I'll see him later.
03:33There you go.
03:35So has she said anything to you?
03:37No, she seems to be coping all right, doesn't she?
03:39Although I'm not sure if she needs to be in today.
03:42Well, maybe she just wants to keep busy.
03:43Oh, my ears are burning.
03:47Yeah, because we're talking about you.
03:50No, I just got my head too close to that eye-level grill
03:52and they're really warm.
03:53Well, at least she's not lost her sense of humour.
03:55Mm.
03:56Look, are you sure you want to be in today?
03:58We can manage without you.
03:59What I want is for you both to stop treating me
04:01with kid gloves, OK?
04:02I'm fine.
04:03And working helps take my mind off the other stuff.
04:06OK, well, whatever you want to do, then that's what we'll do.
04:10Thanks.
04:11Well, I'll get back to the kitchen
04:12and you can carry on talking about me behind my back.
04:15At least she seems in good spirits.
04:17Fingers crossed.
04:19Ooh, I'm going to make some phone call.
04:22Hi.
04:23Hi, how are things?
04:24Yeah, OK.
04:25I was just wondering if you'd spoken to Amy.
04:27I sent her some info on the business retreat,
04:29but she's not gotten back to me.
04:31Oh, I think Amy might be cooling.
04:34Really?
04:35Yeah, I...
04:36Well, it's my fault.
04:37I showed her Oliver's AI and I think it might have spooked her.
04:41You made it clear that's only one of our many techniques
04:43and opportunities we can offer.
04:45Well, I didn't really get the chance.
04:46She... She shut me down.
04:49Oh.
04:50I've always admired your tenacity.
04:52Surprised you gave up so easily.
04:54No, I'm not giving up.
04:55I will speak to her, it's just I'm...
04:56just gearing myself up for a final push.
04:59I was so right to put my faith in you.
05:02Well done.
05:04Coffee?
05:05Yeah, please.
05:09Well, I thought your business study degree
05:11would have covered bookkeeping and accountancy.
05:14It does.
05:15It's obviously not prepared me for my mother's unique attitude
05:17towards numbers.
05:18Oh, well, I would offer to help,
05:20but I've never been very good with numbers.
05:22You know, I prefer the more creative side of life.
05:26Numbers are so cold, soulless.
05:29You know, I prefer the soft, the tender, the warm.
05:33Well, how about you take your soft soul over to the shop
05:36whilst I try and make sense of these books?
05:38Good idea.
05:39Let's play to our strengths.
05:41I'm looking for patterns, but I can't see anything.
05:45Hmm, Leicester's a big place when you're looking for one person.
05:49She was using your credit card details.
05:51She must have known one day someone would try and trace her movement.
05:55Well, yeah, but the card's been stopped.
05:57So how has she been living? How has she bought food?
06:09Of course, she might not be in Leicester.
06:12After risking going to see Roy at the hospital,
06:14she might have wanted to get as far away as she could.
06:16Or maybe she's feeling braver.
06:18Maybe she's closer than we think.
06:20Any joy?
06:22Not yet.
06:23Yeah, we'll keep going.
06:25Craig was in earlier.
06:26I pestered him to put a rocket under the police search.
06:28I mean, the more people looking for her, the sooner we'll find her.
06:32And that way, we'll know exactly why she put Roy through this nightmare.
06:40All right, thanks anyway.
06:42Bye.
06:45Oh!
06:46How can he be gone already?
06:48Because it was big enough for a family.
06:50For once, we could afford the rent.
06:52We're not the only people looking for accommodation.
06:54Yeah, but how many other people are about to get kicked out of their own home?
06:57Hey, something will come up.
06:59Will it?
07:01Yeah, I spoke to Billy.
07:03He said that the council will put us on a waiting list
07:05and we'll be entitled to emergency housing in the meantime.
07:07So we're not going to go homeless yet.
07:09I know.
07:10But we've got the kids and the school.
07:13Oh, Paul, we don't need this.
07:17I feel like I've let you down.
07:18Can't even put a roof over our heads.
07:20Hey, no, you and me, we're a team, yeah?
07:24Even if we end up living in a cardboard box outside,
07:26I'd rather be doing it with you.
07:35Have you checked the photo?
07:38No, she's probably using a false name.
07:40Why did you...?
07:43Yes, yeah.
07:44Well, thank you for not doing anything.
07:46I hope you're this helpful when the police contact you.
07:50Quit the neck.
07:52Take it the searching's going well.
07:54Oh, I didn't hear you come in.
07:56Yeah, it's one of my many hidden talents.
07:58I can be stealthy like a ninja when I want to be.
08:01You OK?
08:04I'm just frustrated.
08:07Well, let's hope the police are having more luck, eh?
08:10Anyway, how many people have you told?
08:13Told what?
08:15That we've set a date.
08:16That we've got a venue for the wedding.
08:19Oh, I've not had time.
08:21Well, chop-chop, babe, the clock is ticking.
08:25Is that news?
08:28Work.
08:30I have to go.
08:32Are you sure you're happy?
08:35About setting a date, getting married?
08:37Of course.
08:38I'm sorry.
08:39There's just so much to do, and work, and Lauren.
08:44Look, you worry too much.
08:46Hey, let the police do the job.
08:49You never know, they might have found her already.
08:54Once everything's sorted,
08:57then we can enjoy planning our wedding.
09:01I have to go.
09:02See you later.
09:04I have to go.
09:05See you later.
09:26These are very neat, you know.
09:28Works all she's done all morning.
09:30And she's swinging the lead.
09:31And she doesn't take a blind bit of notice of what I have to say.
09:34Where is she now?
09:35I sent her down to pack in.
09:38Well, she's still trying to get a red van.
09:40What's expected of her, you know, in a workplace.
09:43I thought maybe you could choose a different worker for her to shadow.
09:47But she's learning so much from you, Beth.
09:50Sorry to interrupt, but Betsy has a request.
09:52What request?
09:53I need to leave early for lunch.
09:55We have dinner at one.
09:56That's what I said, but it's an emergency.
09:58What's the emergency?
09:59I spilled some water on my phone and it keeps running out of charge.
10:02I need a new one.
10:03Your phone is not an emergency.
10:05What if I need to phone my mum?
10:07What if I have something really important to talk to her about?
10:11OK, well, you can go half an hour early and come back half an hour early.
10:15OK.
10:16I need a toilet break.
10:21Does that mean I can go for my dinner, is it?
10:23No, it doesn't.
10:25So it's one rule for her and another for the rest of us.
10:28Get over yourself, Beth.
10:29She's work experience.
10:31Cut her some slack, haven't you?
10:37Hey.
10:38You just caught me. I'm actually heading out.
10:40Yeah.
10:41Joel mentioned you've not had much luck tracking down Lauren.
10:44No, but I'm going to head over to Leicester.
10:47I've got a list of soup kitchens and hostels that I want to check out.
10:50I mean, it'll probably be nothing, but I feel like I've got to do something.
10:54Well, that might be where I may be able to help.
10:58I was having a little look at the statements and I just...
11:00I think she might have moved on from Leicester.
11:02Really? How come?
11:04Well, come and have a look.
11:06She made most of her purchases on online shops,
11:10but she also bought some rail tickets from a train app.
11:13And I've checked with the train company.
11:15Most of them are her weird day returns around the Midlands area.
11:18Yeah, I saw those,
11:19but I just assumed that that's where she was picking up the stuff she bought.
11:22Oh, yeah, but look at this.
11:25The last ticket she bought before the card was stopped cost £55.10.
11:30Now, that was an any time single to Warrington.
11:33No return.
11:35I think she might have moved there.
11:37Unless she got the bus back.
11:39There's no sign of a bus ticket.
11:41I mean, why would she do that when she was travelling for free on your card?
11:46I think we should start there.
11:48We?
11:50Well, I'm free all day if you want some help.
11:53Yeah, let's do it.
12:07Thinking about Lauren. Any news?
12:10Not heard anything, but everyone seems to be looking for her.
12:13Everyone?
12:14Yeah, well, Bethany and Joel were in the cafe earlier,
12:17and apparently Bethany thinks that Lauren's been using a credit card and living in Leicester.
12:21Leicester?
12:22Yeah.
12:23What do the police know about this?
12:25Well, I've tributed Craig into making sure the police do everything they can to try and find her.
12:30Sounds quite promising.
12:32Yeah, well, she can't hide away forever.
12:35She may have good reason for hiding.
12:38Has the doctor come to see you yet?
12:41Oh, he's already been.
12:43What did he say?
12:45Oh, well, the usual checks, blood pressure, heart rate, temperature.
12:51All within acceptable limits.
12:54All right, so is he going to discharge you then?
12:57Oh, he also made it clear that I have to continue with the cardiac rehab programme.
13:03He gave me the leaflet.
13:04Leaflet?
13:05Yeah, it's all the relevant information.
13:08Yeah, they like to hand out leaflets.
13:11Just as easily download that information.
13:13Oh, there's some medication.
13:16So can you come home then?
13:18And that, that's the letter of discharge summary sent to the GP.
13:24So can you come home?
13:26I believe so, yes.
13:27Right, well, do you want me to help you get dressed then?
13:30I don't think so.
13:32Right, well, I'll pull the curtain back and I'll let you get yourself sorted out.
13:37Er...
13:39Gentle word of warning.
13:41You do not swim around here calling the shots to me.
13:44Word is, Travis is making a good recovery.
13:46But his mum's still fuming, pestering the police to find the vicious thug who assaulted us.
13:50I feel terrible about what happened.
13:52Yeah, it didn't just happen. You whacked him with a car door.
13:54Oh, now you're exaggerating.
13:56I'm saving your skin.
13:58Buy me a new phone.
14:00You can only push me so far, you know.
14:02No problem, I'll buy you a new phone.
14:04You can only push me so far, you know.
14:06No problem, I've got someone else who'll buy me things.
14:08Really? Another blackmail victim?
14:10Wouldn't you like to know?
14:12Anyway, love to chat, but I'm off for lunch.
14:14I said half an hour.
14:15What's another 20 minutes between friends?
14:17Is she going to dinner?
14:19Oh, Bess, stop it.
14:20I'm sorry, but if she can just swan off whenever she feels like it,
14:23why can't the rest of us?
14:25Because I said so.
14:27She's playing you for a fool.
14:28Seriously?
14:30You seriously think I'd let a teenager walk all over me, hmm?
14:33It's a word, Bess.
14:38Girls have a responsibility.
14:39They put you on a waiting list for temporary accommodation.
14:41And if that doesn't come through in time,
14:43you're entitled to emergency housing.
14:45Yeah, that's what Billy said, isn't it?
14:47Yes, it's true.
14:49I mean, I've been looking at flats and houses every chance I get,
14:52but there's nothing out there we can afford. It's ridiculous.
14:54Sorry to interrupt, but I couldn't help overhearing.
14:57Oh, you mean you was earwigging?
14:59Actually, I might be able to help you.
15:01One of my regular customers came in today
15:03to cancel her newspaper order.
15:07How does that help us?
15:08Because her and her family are having to move
15:11out of their rented accommodation on Balaclava Terrace.
15:14Her husband's got a job in Newcastle.
15:16She's reluctant to move because the rent's so low
15:18and the landlord is apparently a sweetheart.
15:22How many bedrooms?
15:23Three and a box room and a small garden.
15:25That could be perfect.
15:26I could call and find out the name of the landlord, if you like.
15:29Yeah, can you?
15:30Please.
15:31After lunch?
15:32I'll do it now and I'll buy you a pint to go with that.
15:35Er, I'm always happy to help.
15:40I'm just a bit gutted it's not closer.
15:43I don't like being away from my pa.
15:45This don't work out. Something else will turn up.
15:50Did you see her face when you showed her the picture of Lauren?
15:53Yeah, then she said she's not seen her.
15:56She could be trying to protect her.
15:58We need to be careful not to frighten her off, you know.
16:01I do think we're close.
16:02Yeah, me too.
16:03And I think you're right, I think she's around here somewhere.
16:06Excuse me.
16:08Did I hear you mention a woman called Lauren?
16:10Er, yeah.
16:12Yeah, we're her friends.
16:13But we know she's scared but we just want to find her, help her.
16:16I've seen Aria.
16:18Really?
16:20I'm happy she can trust us.
16:22Maybe you can speak to her and tell her that Didi and Bethany
16:24just want to help her.
16:25Yeah, or if you know where she's living.
16:27I'm not sure I should say anything.
16:29Look, if she doesn't want to meet face to face, that's fine,
16:31but maybe you could get her to call us.
16:33We can give you our numbers.
16:35Please, we just want to help.
16:39There's a pub, King's Arms, about a mile from here.
16:42It's closed down and I know a few people are squatting there.
16:45She might be there.
16:47Thank you so much.
16:48You are her friends?
16:49Yeah, yeah, we are.
16:51I hope you are.
16:52Can't be too careful.
16:53Not with a pregnant kid alone on the streets.
16:56Best of luck.
17:09Hi.
17:10Is it a bad time?
17:11No, just going round in circles with these accounts.
17:14I'd blame my mother if she was here, but she's not.
17:16And also Mary's not exactly good with numbers.
17:18Or reality.
17:20Well, I could always take a look if you want.
17:23I don't know.
17:24Listen, I'm sorry about yesterday.
17:28I shouldn't have shown you Oliver's AI.
17:30He was your brother as well as my son.
17:33And to be honest with you,
17:34you're not the only one who thinks it's a bit weird.
17:36You should have seen the looks Toya and Nick gave me.
17:40I didn't mean to suggest that you were weird.
17:43Well, anyway, I just wanted to say,
17:46don't let it put you off the Institute.
17:49They really can help you in so many ways,
17:51all tailored to our own individual needs.
17:54Like some better accountancy skills.
17:56Yeah, exactly.
17:58And I'd be happy to help.
18:02How much would it cost me?
18:04Well, make us a brew and we'll call it quits.
18:07Okay.
18:08Thanks.
18:09But please, do have a think.
18:12Long-term, the Institute really can help you in loads of ways.
18:16I will.
18:17Promise.
18:21Hey, there we go.
18:24Er...
18:25Yeah, is that for table six?
18:26Yeah.
18:27I thought they ordered the whites on sale.
18:29No, it's red.
18:31Sure?
18:32Yes, of course I'm sure.
18:33Because no, no, it was the white.
18:36Hey, it's okay. Look, don't worry.
18:37Easily changed and, er...
18:40There. No woman, no.
18:43You sure you're okay?
18:44Yes.
18:46I'm sorry.
18:48I worry about you.
18:49Well, don't, okay?
18:50Not until we know for sure that there is something to worry about.
18:55Right, look, do you want me to take it over?
18:56It's good. I've got this.
19:00Ah.
19:01Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
19:02It's all right. It's okay. I've got you.
19:05Hmm.
19:09Er, Roy?
19:11What you doing?
19:13Oh, just making one or two adjustments to the staff router.
19:17Right.
19:18And remember what the doctor said to you again?
19:21Well, there is nothing stressful with a little light admin.
19:26And, you know, I'm happy to take my time to recuperate
19:29and ease myself into the more arduous aspects of cafe hospitality.
19:34Yeah, I should think so.
19:36You've only been back five minutes.
19:39Aye, well, the router can wait.
19:43Yeah, well, anyways, let's just go to have you back home.
19:49Do you think it'd be all right to contact Dee Dee
19:52and see if there's been any progress in finding Lauren?
19:56Right, well, one text, no more than two sentences,
19:59and, yes, you may use punctuation, but no emojis.
20:03Thank you very much.
20:10Alan?
20:12Alan, hi.
20:14Is everything all right? Erm...
20:15I don't know, have you got a minute to talk?
20:20I just need some more money. I mean, you can afford it.
20:23What's the big deal?
20:27You think money grows on trees?
20:30Some of us have to work to earn money.
20:33Why is this such a problem for you?
20:35Look at your car, your suit, you can buy a million phones.
20:39And I need a new one.
20:41You know what it's like, people can't live without a phone.
20:46I need to take this.
20:49Keep quiet, yeah?
20:56Hey, I just got your messages, I was about to call you.
20:59I think we might have found her.
21:02Really? That's great.
21:04And you'll never guess what.
21:06Apparently she's pregnant.
21:12Where are you?
21:13Warrington. We're on our way to this run-down pub, The King's Arms.
21:17Apparently she's living in a squat there.
21:20I could be there in half an hour, why don't you wait and we'll check it out together?
21:24I'm not alone, don't worry, Bethany's here.
21:27I still think it'd be safer if you wait till I get there, it could be dangerous.
21:30Maybe you could get a coffee, I won't be long.
21:33No, Joel, I don't want to risk her getting wind and moving on.
21:36All right, speak to you soon, bye.
21:43Can I speak now?
21:45Out. Now.
21:47What?
21:49Get out of the car.
21:52You don't need to be like that, it's only a few quid to you.
21:55Just get out and close the door.
21:57You can't leave me, I don't know where I am.
21:59You drove, how am I going to get home?
22:01Get out!
22:14Is this about Betsy?
22:16Yeah.
22:18Thing is, it's not really working here, working at the factory.
22:22Right, what's she done now?
22:24Look, whatever it is, I'm sure we can sort it out.
22:27No, see, like, I've already cut a load of slack.
22:31And, you know, I don't want to be a burden to her.
22:34I don't want to be a burden to her.
22:36I don't want to be a burden to her.
22:38I don't want to be a burden to her.
22:40I've already cut a load of slack.
22:42And I've given her chance after chance,
22:44despite her not having any real experience.
22:47Yeah, I know, and I'm very grateful.
22:49Yeah.
22:50Well, her way of thanking me is to take liberties and to threaten me.
22:55You see, she's not even there now.
22:57She's not even working.
22:58This is what I came to tell you.
22:59You see, she's...
23:00She's actually...
23:01Sorry, just two secs.
23:05This is her now.
23:07Betsy?
23:08What are you...?
23:11Where are you?
23:14Say that again.
23:17Stay where you are.
23:19What is it?
23:21I think she said Gable Street.
23:22What's she doing there? That's dangerous. Full of scumbags.
23:25I'm going to have to drive over and find her.
23:27OK, do you want me to help?
23:28Two is better than one.
23:30Yeah, thank you.
23:35That was disgusting.
23:36Thank you, sir.
23:37And I'm not paying for it.
23:39If there was something wrong you should have said before you ate it.
23:42You wolfed it down.
23:43I was hungry, and the portion was stingy.
23:45I wouldn't even give it a one-star review.
23:48A zero, if I could.
23:50Is there a problem, Nina?
23:52No, I can manage.
23:54As long as this man pays for his food.
23:56You go upstairs and rest.
23:58It was rank.
24:00I recall you.
24:02You come to ogle at me again.
24:05Whisper about what a weirdo I am.
24:08Hey, is he one of them web-sleuths from before?
24:11You look just as weird as him.
24:14A pair of weirdos.
24:16I bet you're in it together.
24:19Protecting his dirty secrets.
24:22Ah, no, no.
24:23By all means, direct your vitriol at me.
24:26Leave my niece out of this.
24:28By the way, Lauren has been confirmed alive.
24:33Something I'm sure you'll find out.
24:36I also hope that you find the self-awareness that you currently lack
24:42and realize the negative effects of your actions.
24:45Now, go away.
24:59This place sounds whelming.
25:02The garden, although small, has been described as a mini-kew,
25:06which is the Royal Botanic Gardens.
25:08No need to mansplain, Brian.
25:10I know what the kew is.
25:12I've heard Granny Linda banging on about it.
25:14A woman with fine taste?
25:16Well, if this comes off, you can come round.
25:19You can tan yourself in the weather kew whenever you want.
25:22Why, thank you, gentlemen.
25:24It's tragic that good people like you can't find a decent place to live,
25:27so I'm happy to help.
25:29Not all heroes wear keepsie.
25:31You know, I've always felt I'd look great in a cowl.
25:35Oh, is he here?
25:38Ah, no joy.
25:40I didn't even get a chance to see it.
25:42I turned up and there was a massive kew round the corner.
25:44No way.
25:46I stood there for a bit and the kew died down,
25:48but the estate agent came out and just said the house had gone.
25:51So quick.
25:53Thanks for the tip-off, though, Brian.
25:55I'm just sorry I didn't bear fruit.
25:57I'll keep a lookout if I hear of any other places.
26:00Don't panic. We'll find somewhere else.
26:03What if we don't? We're going to get evicted in a month.
26:07Ah, hi, Nina.
26:09How's Roy doing?
26:11He's OK. It's on the men.
26:13I'm still worried about him.
26:15Not sure how much rest he's going to get in here.
26:17Well, maybe he needs to go away for a bit.
26:19When I went on the retreat with the Institute,
26:21they gave me the world of good.
26:23Anyway, give him your best, won't you?
26:25Yeah, yeah, I will.
26:27I got you a coffee. You deserve a much bigger reward.
26:30Oh, skinny milk? Of course.
26:32I just wanted to touch base.
26:34So, has Amy signed up for the retreat?
26:36She most certainly has. Oh, good.
26:38I think she'll get a lot from it.
26:40There's something else I want to talk to you about.
26:42We're thinking of setting up another resource centre in the near future.
26:45The others have done so well financially.
26:48Oh, well, bring it on.
26:50There could be a job for you, if you're interested.
26:54Oh, I can't. I've already got a full-time job.
26:57You could easily fit it around your bistro commitments.
27:01There is another option.
27:03Oh, yeah?
27:05You could be an investor. Help get it off the ground.
27:08What? You mean, like, invest my own money?
27:11Yeah, you'd soon get it back with a hefty profit.
27:14You should see the figures for the others.
27:17You're on a completely different level.
27:20Someone with your talent deserves a share of the profits.
27:23Oh, I'm really flattered, but I'd have to talk to Nick.
27:27But how much money are we talking?
27:2940K.
27:40Someone asking for you.
27:42Who is it?
27:44I don't care. Go and see for yourself.
28:07How are you getting on?
28:15Look, let's not scare her off by knocking again.
28:18He said he's going to get her.
28:20I know, but what is taking them so long?
28:22I don't know.
28:24It's pretty rough, isn't it?
28:26Yeah. So let's tread carefully. She is here.
28:33Hi, Jo. Yeah, I think we found her at this pub.
28:36I'm almost there.
28:38OK, see you when you get here. Bye.
28:41Bethany! Bethany, wait!
28:51Is Lauren here?
28:53Yeah. You've just missed her.
28:56Looks like she's done another runner.
29:11I will scream if you come anywhere near me.
29:14I'm trying to help you. You don't have to hide from me.
29:17Stay away from me. Let's get in the car.
29:19Get off me. I'm just trying to help you. You need me.
29:23No, no.
29:27You're going to have to talk to me at some point about what happened.
29:30You've been giving me the run-around all day.
29:32Now you're doing it to your mam. It's not OK.
29:34Both of you going on and they back off.
29:36That is enough. What the hell were you doing there in the first place?
29:39It's not an area you should be hanging out in.
29:42But what was so important to you that you had to drop everything?
29:45Hmm?
29:51PHONE RINGS
29:53It's Wayne.
29:57Are you kidding?
29:59No, I'm on my way.
30:03This will have to wait till later. I need to get back to work.
30:06Thanks again, Carla. No problem.
30:09Hello. I'm sure it was something important.
30:13Am I really sacked?
30:19Come on, let's talk.
30:22Leave me alone.
30:23How many times do I need to tell you I care about you and the baby?
30:28Keep quiet about everything and I promise I'll make it worth your while.
30:31Hey, you found her.
30:33She hadn't got off. She was hanging around here.
30:35She hadn't got off. She was hanging around here.
30:37Then she fainted.
30:39Are you all right?
30:41Felt rubbish all day.
30:43Dizzy.
30:44But then my legs went from underneath me.
30:47I hope the baby's OK.
30:49So do I.
30:51I wish you would just stop running away like this.
30:56I thought you hated me.
30:59Look, Lauren, we just...
31:02We want to understand what's happened that's made you run away all this time.
31:11I'm scared.
31:17Right, I think we need to get you to an hospital. Come on.
31:21Come on.
31:23Let's get her in a car.
31:31OK.
31:36Betsy, you blackmailing me.
31:39It's got to stop.
31:40Can I plug this in?
31:41Oh, yeah, what's this, a free bit of lecky?
31:43You know, when you've got me over a barrel anyway.
31:45You might need to think carefully before getting rid of me.
31:50You know what?
31:52No, you can't borrow this.
31:54Take your charger and your phone and shove it!
32:01I'm going to go and tell the police.
32:02And I don't care how much trouble I get in.
32:04I'm not being blackmailed by a kid like you.
32:07I was winding you up. I'm not a grass.
32:10The idea you deserve what you did to him.
32:12I saw what you did to your friend, Roy.
32:14You were just playing games with me.
32:16No, I admit it. I went too far with the blackmailing.
32:19Oh, finally, some accountability.
32:22Betsy, what you did was stupid.
32:24I know it was.
32:25I do stupid things when I'm backed into a corner.
32:27Life's been rubbish for me lately.
32:29And this job is the first thing I've had in ages to look forward to.
32:33Let me guess, you've got other priorities.
32:35Not everything revolves around you, you know.
32:39Actually, I do have to deal with something.
32:42But look, Betsy.
32:45I will think about keeping you on.
32:48Yeah, if...
32:50You'd smooth things over with your mum.
32:52Just talk to her.
32:53She was out of her mind with Rory just then.
32:57Go on.
32:59Thanks, Carla.
33:07I really hope we get to the bottom of all this.
33:09We will.
33:11Unless she does another runner.
33:13Yeah, she looked to be in a very good way, did she?
33:18Hi.
33:19Happy to report that Lauren and the baby are fine.
33:23Her fainting isn't uncommon in pregnancy.
33:25Especially for standing, for any length of time.
33:28Right. She was also living in the squat,
33:30so, I mean, she probably hasn't been eating properly.
33:33OK, we'll keep her in overnight and do some scans and observations.
33:36Is she allowed to see visitors?
33:37She's just had an ultrasound.
33:38But I'll let you know when you can go in.
33:43I think I might wait till we can see her.
33:45Yeah, well, does anyone fancy a coffee?
33:47Yeah, please.
33:48I'd better get off, but I'll let Max and Bobby know that she's OK.
33:51I'll see you later.
33:52See you later.
33:53I'm going to give Roy an update and I'll...
33:55Yeah, and I'll get that coffee.
34:01Do you think you should take the day off work?
34:03I've told you, I'm fine, OK? I want to work.
34:05Yeah, but you're not fit to work.
34:07Hi. I've got some really exciting news.
34:12Everything OK?
34:13Oh, he's trying to make me have the day off work.
34:15Your sister almost collapsed at work.
34:17Really?
34:18It's no big deal, OK? He's being overcautious.
34:20Anyway, you said you had some exciting news?
34:22Oh, he can wait.
34:24No, I'm OK. Honestly, what's the news?
34:27Rowan wants me to invest in a new resource centre.
34:30Oh.
34:32What, invest as in coffered money?
34:34It's a really exciting opportunity.
34:36And the centres don't lose money. I'd get a share of the profits.
34:39So I've already rang the bank manager and asked him about remortgaging...
34:42Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
34:44Over my dead body.
34:45You're not doing that without my permission.
34:47No, that's what I want to talk to you about.
34:49No, no, there's other things to worry about.
34:51Your sister almost collapsed at work.
34:53Come on, we should be focusing on her.
34:56Yeah, yeah, I'm sorry. I'm being really selfish. I'm sorry.
34:59Is there anything I can get you, Taya?
35:01Well, I'd feel a lot better if you weren't banging on about the institute all the time.
35:05Yeah.
35:06You know, we shouldn't be thinking about new business, all right?
35:09Yeah, OK.
35:11Well, I'll tell Rowan, then.
35:13What kind of man leaves a vulnerable girl in the middle of nowhere in a dodgy area?
35:17A creep, that's who.
35:26Hey, I need to speak to you about something.
35:29Roy, where are you going?
35:31Warrington Hospital. Dee Dee tells me it'll only take a day.
35:34Only me.
35:35Bye, Carla.
35:37I don't take it you've heard about the institute?
35:39No.
35:40Bye, Carla.
35:42I don't take it you've heard about Lorraine?
35:44I have, yeah.
35:45Yeah, that's where he's going now.
35:46What? No, you've got to stay away from her.
35:48Yeah, she's right. You need to take things slowly.
35:51Anyway, I've spoken to Kathy, and she's invited you to stay in Scarborough.
35:56And, you know, I think it'll be good, a change of scenery.
35:59Gives you a chance to rest.
36:02We've had some happy times here, haven't we?
36:04I don't want to leave.
36:06We'll have happy times wherever we live.
36:09We'll have the kids living somewhere that's not safe.
36:12I mean, our houses get damp and mouldy.
36:14It's like living in Victorian times.
36:18Anyway, I've spoken to Linda, and she said that Joseph can live with her for a bit
36:21in her new place in Manchester.
36:23If need be, he can still go to Orkney.
36:27Gemma, it isn't me picking him over the others.
36:30It just might speed things up if we're looking for a place with one less person.
36:33But he's the only one of the kids that she's interested in.
36:37I don't want to split the family up, even if it's just for a few weeks.
36:41Well, neither do I. But we might have no other option.
36:44We're a family! We stay together.
37:04What are you doing?
37:06Oh, just slaving away, as per.
37:08Oh, you don't strike me as the diligent type.
37:11Oh, it's overtime, babes.
37:14Why'd you try and hide it when I came in?
37:16Well, like a T-shirt, not knickers.
37:19You want to get your eyesight checked. You're seeing things.
37:23Are you making counterfeit gear?
37:27No!
37:29You're defo up to something.
37:37Most people complain about the food in here.
37:40I could see someone's enjoying it.
37:42I'm starving.
37:44Are you eating properly?
37:46Pregnant women need to look after their blood sugar.
37:49Not even skin pregnant women.
37:55Life's not great at the minute.
37:58I keep having to move.
38:01From the minute I found out I was pregnant,
38:04I knew I had to give this baby a life I never had.
38:09Protect him.
38:11Is he having a boy?
38:13I just hope it's a boy.
38:16It'll be easier for him.
38:18I can see how much you love him already.
38:21So, please, don't be too hard on yourself.
38:27I've messed up.
38:29Do you want to talk about it?
38:32Denise?
38:37I can assure you, whatever led you here can be sorted.
38:51Please don't press that.
38:54What the hell are you doing here?
38:58No Beth?
38:59I did text her.
39:00She says she's volunteering in a soup kitchen.
39:03That's not like Beth.
39:04Oh, yeah.
39:05She cares deeply about people who are less fortunate than her.
39:07She says she might climb out Kilimanjaro next year.
39:11Do you mind if I join you?
39:13Of course.
39:14Red wine, is it?
39:15No, no.
39:16I think I might push the boat out and have a dirty martini,
39:20if they've got any olives.
39:21I think Daisy gets them in.
39:23Well, I think I might have.
39:24I think Daisy gets them in.
39:25I think I might have a clean pint of lager.
39:30Welcome to the Institute.
39:32Thank you.
39:33This is why you're having a celebration drink.
39:35You are going to get so much out of this.
39:36It was my mum wanting me to run the shop that really clinched it.
39:39I wanted to do great.
39:40This gives me loads of contacts.
39:42Well, Leanne is going to give you the course details.
39:45I need to run.
39:47Thanks, Rowan.
39:48I just need to have a quick word with him before he goes.
39:51Rowan, I just thought you should know
39:55we won't be able to invest in the new centre.
39:57Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
39:59I'm guessing Nick was opposed.
40:02Yeah, yeah, he was, but I agree with him.
40:05Investing that amount of money, it's got to be a joint decision.
40:08Don't just give up.
40:10Amy took some persuading to get on board.
40:13I don't think he'll change his mind.
40:16Why don't I have a word with him?
40:18I might be able to make him see that it's not just about money.
40:21It's about your happiness.
40:23Well, it's how I feel, genuinely.
40:28Do you think it's possible you've outgrown him?
40:30He obviously feels threatened by your success with us.
40:35I'm sorry. I've overstepped the mark. I apologise.
40:38No, no, he's just protective, that's all, and I quite like that.
40:42I mean, it can be a bit stifling sometimes.
40:45Someone ought to tug his lead, make him see what he has to lose.
40:54Yeah, I've just arrived at the hospital now.
40:58No, I'm going to find a doctor, see if I can interview her.
41:04I know you're still angry with me.
41:06I can see that I will carry the shame of this.
41:10You're trying to wiggle your way out of it, but I don't believe you.
41:15No way. I can't go to prison.
41:21What good would that do for you or our baby?
41:29I know the police are on their way.
41:32When you talk to them...
41:35..I want you to lie.
41:38What, I'm getting some more trouble?
41:40I want you to say it was Nathan Curtis who attacked you.
41:46It was Nathan Curtis?
41:47He's already in prison for breaching his HPSO.
41:49They think he's responsible for your disappearance.
41:52Yeah, but he had nothing to do with it, did he?
41:54Well, neither did Roy Cropper.
41:56But the police still charged him.
42:00So you tell the police you made a huge mistake,
42:03and you've regretted it ever since,
42:05and, crucially, you do not want to take things any further.
42:11You might be able to lie through your teeth.
42:13Lauren, it gives me no pleasure saying this,
42:15but you have got no-one in this world looking out for you,
42:18otherwise you wouldn't be living in a squat,
42:20not knowing when your next meal is.
42:25This isn't good for you or the baby.
42:29I want to help you.
42:34But on your terms, you will be the one calling the shots.
