00:00Hey. Alright sleepyhead. I forgot to charge my phone. You wouldn't see me up before midday
00:15if I had a day off. You need to have a job first. I'm gonna ignore that. Thanks grumpy
00:20pants. Sit yourself down. You're heartless without a coffee. I can do that. Yeah, I know
00:26you're very domesticated these days. But, still wild at heart though, eh? I don't know
00:33about that. I could nuke you some pancakes if you like. Lots of golden syrup. Just how
00:41you like them. You know what, maybe I'll just get some at a cafe. I've got so much stuff
00:47to do. So, thanks anyway. Another time. You've been ignoring my calls. I was waiting until
01:04I had some actual news. How long's that gonna take? I didn't ask you for the tantric version.
01:11It's time. Well, that is one luxury we haven't got, Rose. Why? Kim hasn't found out anything,
01:18has she? Think I'd be stood here if she had. I need results. I'm working on it. Yeah, well,
01:26you're gonna have to do better than pancakes and golden syrup. Time's up. Hey, how you
01:40doing? Just stealing myself for work. I think under the circumstances they'll understand.
01:44I'm not sure I can face having the conversation. Have you got your follow-up appointment sorted
01:52at the hospital? Like you said, I'm just gonna wait for my period. Give nature a chance to,
01:58you know. Yes, of course. Well, I'm always here for you. And have you spoken to Liam
02:04yet? Nope. He thinks I'm a liar, that I made the whole thing up. I know, but he's carrying
02:10a lot of trauma of his own. Well, at least he's got a roof over his head while he does
02:13it. What do you mean? He's withdrawn funding from the B&B. Sent me a message first thing.
02:19Yeah, doesn't waste much time, does he? Liam, I didn't know you were in. You okay? But hasn't
02:34Paddy told you? Well, he was a bit odd last night. Put that on his union badges. Is it
02:41the baby? What baby? I took Ella to the hospital. They gave her a scan. There is no baby. Eh?
02:53Your friend is a pathological liar. Oh, come on, I mean, he'd have to be like you. A cruel,
03:04deluded, vindictive fantasist. Honestly, the sooner she is out of this village and out
03:08of my life, the better. You hang on a minute. We've been here before with the whole get
03:13out of town routine. You've chased her that many times with a pitchfork. She's got her
03:16backside like a watering can. Look, she is a dangerous, lying, scheming... Fear me! I
03:22have washed my hands of her and you would do well to follow suit. Hey, baby. You been
03:36missing me? I've been missing you. Yes, I have. Oh, what a good girl. Huh. Was there
03:46something wrong with the security camera? No, I just didn't want to worry about all
03:50that stuff. It costs a lot of money, all that stuff. Right, well, I'll pay you back
03:55then. That's not what I meant. You do whatever it is that makes you feel safe. I've only
04:01ever wanted what's best for you, Belle. And I know sometimes I get it wrong, but you're
04:11all I care about. I am always going to be here for you. Wow. I guess Kim's living proof
04:25that money cannot buy you taste. You shouldn't be here. You need to go. I don't know why
04:35Caleb's so obsessed with this place. It does tend to get a bit locked in. Really? He's
04:41the one who's locked in. Oh, here we go. You're getting cold feet again. Do you want me to
04:47buy you some bed socks? There's a lot more at stake now. With Dawn and Evan. This isn't
04:54about them. It will affect them, though, won't it? Kim will have us out that door in a heartbeat.
04:59Well, at least you'll still all be together. Because if Dawn finds out why you're really
05:05here, it's going to be the end of your little game of happy families, isn't it? Rose, Kim
05:12Jong-il's been exiled. Will's all love-lorn and vulnerable. It couldn't be more perfect.
05:20So, you play your part as agreed. Bit early, isn't it? Well, we're going to be celebrating
05:25later. Because you're going to make it happen. By sleeping with Will.
05:37Here you go. We hope the new blend meets your satisfaction. I've taken the liberty of pulling
05:47up your bill so far. Um, what are all these? Um, that's the minibar fees. Right. And dare
05:59I presume the new Earl's complimentary? Or will I be getting a separate bill for that
06:04also? Hey. Hey. Okay, well, I'll leave that with you. Um, Bob's due in if you need anything
06:13else. So, they looking after you? Looking after myself. As always. Everything seems
06:25on an even queue with Evan at the minute. Good. Although I just feel like we're holding
06:30our breath, just waiting for the next bullet. I suppose you've got to take the good days...
06:35Yeah, yeah, that's right. You double check that and get back to me. I'll look forward
06:39to it. I'll tell you what. Why don't I leave you to it? Yeah, sure. Good. Make sure you
06:45do. Pronto. Bye. I'm not sure they're open just yet. But I can hook you up here, if you
06:54don't mind paying over the odds. You enjoying your new digs then? Yeah, you know. They're
07:02adequate. I've got to say, I'm surprised you left your place so easily. There was nothing
07:07easy about it. But sometimes you have to think about the greater good. Yeah, right.
07:13I'll have to use that one on Ruby sometime. Try and steer her off course next time she
07:17gets fixated on something. Now was I thinking you wore the trousers in your relationship.
07:22I'm a walk over me. See, you've got to watch out for her. She's like a dog with a bone
07:26once she gets an idea in her head. I'm busy. You've got ten minutes. Your next appointment
07:41cancelled. I thought you could do with this. Thank you. So I've seen Ella. I don't want
07:54to talk about it. Can you just let me speak for a minute? I don't know what she's told
07:57you, but it would have been a very well thought out succession of lies. She can't help herself.
08:01It's extraordinary. Well, she wasn't lying about the baby. I was there. I saw the scan.
08:07There is no baby. Because she had an unembryonic pregnancy. What? The hospital confirmed it.
08:22They contacted me as her GP, worried about her state of mind after she ran off. Ella
08:28was pregnant. I didn't even consider it. Well, you were upset. You missed it. Oh, my God.
08:44Oh, yeah. She's installed herself on the patio, demanding we boost her Wi-Fi, and she's ordering
08:49off a menu. How does Bob cope? He's running him ragged. Part of me thinks he enjoys it.
08:54He said that was your problem, Lola. You were too nice to him. You busy, then? I've been
08:59here since 8, Jay. And some of us can multitask, Jay. I know that might be too much for your
09:04puny membrane. I've had a tip off from Health and Safety. We're going to have a review.
09:08So all this stuff needs checking before you leave tonight. There's a week's worth of work
09:12here. Well, not if you multitask. If you think you're going to bully me into leaving. Look,
09:16if you can't handle the job... No, no, they do. I've tried to be reasonable. Really? When
09:21was that, then? It's very obvious that we can't actually communicate without arguing,
09:24so I'll tell you what. Shall we just ignore each other? It'd be a damn sight easier if
09:28we didn't work together. I've got bills to pay and kids to support, just in case you
09:31forgot, OK? Shameless. Oh, stay out of it, Nicola. No, no. Nicola's right. But I'll tell
09:36you one thing, Jay. The pettier you get, the more it confirms that I made the best decision
09:41of my life, leaving you. Make yourself at home? I think it's time we had a little chat,
10:06don't you? What is it you'd like to discuss? Aren't you going to offer me a drink? Sure.
10:14Put the kettle on. I think you can do better than that. You have good taste. In liquor,
10:28if nothing else. What do you want, Kim? I want to know where you're playing at, plotting
10:37with Rose. Did you actually intend to spike Dawn, or was it meant for me? It had nothing
11:00to do with any of that. I know how ruthless you can be, how low you can go. You came to
11:08me once, baring your soul, begging for help, remember? Yeah, and you turned on me. We could
11:14have been friends. Or allies, then. You know, at first, I presumed this latest campaign
11:22was Caleb, having another sticky swipe with his grubby little hands. Then I realised it
11:31was you, like some bargain basement Lady Macbeth, lurking in the shadows. He has no idea, has
11:41he, about any of this. Well, for a so-called power couple, you don't seem very united.
11:51If you've just come here to insult me, then maybe you could... Or are you shafting him
11:54as well, now? I... I can't keep up. Perhaps you need to look a little bit closer to home
12:00for a marriage that's on the rocks. Because the last I heard, you were camping out with
12:04a B&B, and Will is snuggling up to his ex in that great big pile of bricks you call
12:09home. You need to do a bit better than that. Oh, I've done my bit, Kim. Don't you worry
12:17about that. Now all I've got to do is sit back and watch the fireworks. Wow. You've
12:25been a busy bee. Just trying to make me feel bad for being a wanton slatten. Yeah, it's
12:32all about you. Well, it is, yeah. Just how I like it. So, are you having a purge? Yeah,
12:39somewhat like that. You know, I try wafting one of those sage sticks around. The ones
12:43that Faith used to bang on about. Supposed to be very cleansing, by all accounts. Well,
12:48I've got some stuff in mix. Will that work? I saw Tom earlier. He was chatting away like
12:57we were best buds. Hmm. Perils of living in a little village. Yeah, I guess. Why don't
13:06you go up and see your dad at Deb's for a bit? Make sure he's not abusing her hospitality.
13:11The break might do you good. I don't get why I should be running away. It's not running
13:15away, Belle. It's looking after yourself. Come on, you've been through a lot. Well,
13:20I'm stronger than you think. Poor little damaged Belle. You can't trust her because she's not
13:24all there. And I know what Tom's like. I know he's got you all wrapped around his little
13:28finger. Belle, that is not... No, you know what? I will go. And not because I need the
13:33break, but because I just want some peace and quiet from you lot. You may well hate
13:38me. I don't really think about you, Kim. You're nothing to me. And why do you have
13:43my limited edition cognac in your kitchen? A little gift from a good friend, was it?
13:51You're clearly hoping that Rose is going to turn Will's head. It's already happening as
13:55far as I can see. And even if he was stupid enough to go there, how would that possibly
14:01benefit you? Do you think I'm going to crumble? Be so broken you could swoop in and take everything?
14:09A bit paranoid? Or are you deflecting from problems in your own relationship? A bit vindictive?
14:18Less vindictive than burning down our car hire business. Why on earth would you think
14:24I had anything to do with it? Oh, I'm sure you've got an alibi and everything.
14:36Stay away from me and my family, or it won't just be your business that gets burnt.
14:55Oh, tough day. They're all tough, aren't they? Sorry, ignore me. I'm just tired. Still ruggedly
15:07handsome, though. I won't go that far. Something happen? No, just, well, I saw Kim outside
15:17the B&B. Right. And it was like she didn't care less. About? About me. About us, about
15:27the marriage. It's like she'd checked out. Well, if she has, she's a fool. Come on, let's
15:37get you a proper drink. No, you don't have to. Just because I'm on the wagon doesn't
15:41mean you have to deprive yourself. Come on. Come and tell me all about it.
15:54Jay. Jay. Sorry, erm, I'll be with you in a sec.
16:04What? Well, it's tricky, isn't it? Working alongside the woman you're in the middle of
16:10a break-up with. That's one word for it. Yeah, I've been there, mate. Got a T-shirt. Can't
16:15be done, though. Except you and Ruby always seem to come back together, don't you? Yeah,
16:19I don't think there's much chance of that for us. Well, sometimes it's just cheaper
16:24to roll with the punches. Listen, er, you're a smart fella, yeah? I know you are, but just,
16:32you make sure you get some decent advice about your finances. Just saying. You never know.
16:40I didn't lie about the baby, I swear. I was pregnant. The hospital have said, ask Ma'am
16:50Preet. They call it a silent miscarriage. So, there was a baby? It hadn't developed,
17:00so I don't even know if I get to say that. I should have known it wouldn't work out.
17:10Too good to be true. Look, you can stay here as long as you want, right? I'm not going
17:19to see you out on the streets, but you do need to talk to Liam. I can understand why
17:24he's got something... Speak of the devil. I think we need to talk.
17:40You going somewhere? She's just going to go and stay with Devs for a bit. Just to clear
17:47my head. Well, that'll be nice. You'll get to see your dad. You know, I would have given
17:53you a lift if you asked. I would have driven myself if you hadn't sold my car. When are
17:58you back? I don't know, Tom. When I'm ready. Do you really need to take Piper? It's a long
18:02journey, isn't it? I want her with me. I can't believe you're doing this to me. Right,
18:10come on, you crack open the div, Dad. I'll do the music. I never even considered the
18:22possibility of it being an embryonic pregnancy. I saw the empty screen and I flipped. At least
18:33we know what you really think of me now. I'm just so sorry. I lashed out. I really thought
18:43you... Made the whole thing up like some total psycho? Yeah, I got that. I know you're secretly
18:51jumping for joy. Right. Best result possible for you, isn't it? Ellen. No, I'm not listening
18:56anymore. You've said enough. Just go away and leave me in peace. Seriously, Liam, just
19:03get lost. Excuse me, you can't drink that here. It's not from your own bottle. Oh, Nicola,
19:32not even your sour little po-face can ruin this moment for me. Some days are just too
19:41good. I don't know, I mean, I know her really well. I know all the moods. I've just never
19:55felt the full force of her indifference before. I think I've got frostbite. This'll warm you
20:03up. You're too good for her anyway. Oh, yeah, that'll be it. Seriously, Will, if she doesn't
20:14realise what she's got, then she's a fool. You're very kind. I'm not being kind. I'm
20:22being honest. You've always been attractive. I'm sorry you don't feel appreciated. You
20:36deserve better than that. You're a great dad. A great role model to your grandkids. Really?
20:48Stop trying to get compliments. I know what you're doing. I remember the old you, remember?
20:59You know what your problem is? You've no idea how lovely you are.
