00:00Wake up little Ella, wake up. I am awake. No, like the song. Last night we fell asleep.
00:13Fully clothed. Exactly. But what we gonna tell? Tell? There's nothing to tell. Well
00:20except we did kiss. Right. Bit of a shock that. But we should have seen it coming. Really?
00:27Yeah. We're full of the feels from making up. Now we can start over from scratch. Oh,
00:33you wanna start over? Course. I'll see you later. I'm really glad we worked things out.
00:40Last night was pretty perfect. Pretty perfect. Oh, bacon butty and some of that coffee that
00:56you like. Smells like guilt. It's more like relief that my wife's home. I did miss you
01:02sleeping at the side of me last night. And all the other nights. Me too. I'm back home.
01:12Not back in your bed. We've a way to go yet. I will do everything in my power to make that
01:17happen. Things will be better now. Now we're free of Rose. Morning. Is Rose Jackson here?
01:34No. What's she done now? Left her handbag by the side of the road. Have you seen her?
01:41You gave some pointers to Samson, yeah? Yeah, I'll need a lot more if he's gonna last inside.
01:47No, you're all heart. Morning. Um, Chas, I don't suppose you've got any spare shifts going?
01:53Why aren't you cutting your hours, are they? Not after everything that's happened. I can't
01:57stay on there. Well, I would, but Samson's doing any spare hours that we've got going
02:02at the moment. And I can't imagine you wanna work with her anyway. Well, that's easy fix.
02:07Fire Samson the thug. Hire Mattie as victim. Mum, don't. She has got a point. I don't need
02:12you sticking your nose in it. Mum, it's all right. His plea hearing's Tuesday. Sentencing
02:17will probably be a few weeks after that, and if he gets sent down... When? Not if, Chas.
02:22Any of his hours will be yours, if you still want them.
02:28Could do with the next pair of hands at the garage. Oh, yeah. Let me just dust off my
02:32trained mechanic's certificate. Might just be a bit of tidying up, some towing,
02:36anything else that needs sorting. Thanks, Kate. I really appreciate it, but I know you've already
02:40got Sarah for all that. Mum, got anything going at your place? You hate Grafton's the farm.
02:46Loved it as a kid, didn't I? Much prefer working with sheep than people nowadays.
02:50Yeah. Well, it's your job if you want it, son. Whatever you need.
02:54Thank you. Best go and tell Gabby I quit. Mattie, me helping Samson isn't about you.
03:02I just don't want him eating alive inside. Yeah. Me neither, mate. Wouldn't wish that on anyone.
03:08Not even Josh? Nah. I don't want him hurt. Just stop before he does it again or worse.
03:14That's not gonna happen, is it? Nope. Thanks to Samson.
03:20I won't apologise for helping my nephew protect himself.
03:23I wasn't always a bad kid. Well, he is now. Or he just told the police about his psychopath.
03:28Face it, Cain, he's a nasty piece of work, and you are helping him.
03:32Yes, she lost it after a heavy night in a pub. Well, a few pubs, and not for the first time.
03:38Did she report it? No, she didn't think police would prioritise it.
03:45Well, may as well consider it prioritised. Even though it's just a few lipsticks,
03:49a child's drawing and an old hospital letter. When are you expecting her home?
03:53Oh, she's gone to the hospital. Dawn had to stay overnight again with her son, so
04:00could be back any minute. Why don't you leave the bag with us and we'll make sure she gets it?
04:05Great. Sign here, will you? Do you think you could sign, love?
04:10You took the bag, darling. You need to sign for it.
04:14Sure. If Rose is missing anything, tell her she'll need to file a report.
04:19Yeah. Thanks, Constable. You've gone above and beyond.
04:23I'll see myself out.
04:30Do you care to explain this? Do you?
04:35What's with all this posh stuff? Dust and bags. I just want some proper tea.
04:41Is there anything I can help you with? I can think of a few things.
04:45I only meant the tea. Leave the lad alone, Ruby.
04:48She's just my single mate. So, I've just had an update from the police about a fire.
04:57They definitely think it's most likely to be arson.
05:00Any idea who? Yeah, they've got an idea.
05:03Who? Me.
05:05They've accused you? Well, they didn't have to, did they?
05:08You know they've been sus from the off because they got the insurance right before the firm
05:10burnt down. Well, that's coincidence. It's not evidence.
05:13Yeah, but it's still enough for them to fit it on me, which they will,
05:16unless we can figure out who's actually to blame.
05:19Yeah, next Tuesday. Yeah, me too.
05:23Thanks, Bell. All right, Sampson?
05:25I hear you're in court next week. What about it?
05:28I just wanted to wish you the best of luck. I got everything crossed for you.
05:32Cheers. Is that Belle you were talking to, by the way?
05:34Is she all right? Does she need anything? If she wants you to know, she'll tell you herself.
05:41Sampson's right. You're siding with him, the lad facing prison?
05:45I'm siding with common sense. Keep giving Belle space, as long as she needs it.
05:51Siding with common sense? That's a first time for you, isn't it?
05:55Don't tell anyone. Oh, they won't believe me anyway.
06:13Someone had enough of your lip? I like this. Looks quite good, doesn't it?
06:17Crazy boys weekend. Could say I got smashed getting smashed.
06:20You should have come. I told you to stay clear.
06:22And I did, for a bit. Go me. Woo! Anyway, let's go get drunk.
06:27Do one. Oh, come on. Don't be so boring.
06:30You do know I'm facing prison? I've got my plea here and it's next week.
06:33Yeah, I know. Which is why I wanted to give you a proper knees up.
06:36But you are keeping my name out of it, aren't you? Because I don't like nasty surprises.
06:41There's no point. It's both going down.
06:44Good. That's great. That's brilliant. Because you know what I'm capable of, don't you?
06:49Actually, you don't. You've got no idea what I'm capable of.
06:53And that's what's exciting. Good luck, mate.
07:09Hello, Cinders.
07:13Mandy, putting you to work again? I like to help out here and there.
07:16You're an ex-client. She's just ducked out.
07:18No, I've come to invite you to dinner.
07:23Why? And what's with the flowers?
07:25Well, they're freshly cut from the allotment to mark our fresh start.
07:30And, well, a first date. Another one, so it's our second first date.
07:36Liam, what are you doing?
07:37I just want to do right by you this time.
07:40I want to pull out all the stops because I owe you that.
07:44I know I've said some terrible things in the past, like you're the last person I'd want,
07:47but I want to get past all of that and give you everything.
07:53Even... even me.
08:00You can bog off, too.
08:01Sorry, did I do something wrong?
08:03Other than being a patronising git.
08:05I'm the last person you'd want, but you're willing to get past it because you owe me.
08:09I'm spooning here.
08:11I'm mucking this up. This is supposed to be part of our starting over, like you said.
08:15Starting over as friends.
08:17Friends, but you said last night was pretty perfect.
08:21Perfect closure. A perfect ending to us.
08:27Your drive yesterday, where did you go?
08:30Around.
08:31Oh, where exactly?
08:32Why?
08:34Why won't you say?
08:35Because it was just a drive, like here and there.
08:37Did you see anyone? Did you see Rose?
08:40Did you?
08:41I was here.
08:42Yeah, when I got home. I know you went out before that. Where?
08:47Why are you deflecting, Will?
08:49Why are you?
08:50I'm not. Why did you lie to Swirling about Rose losing a bag on a bender? What was the point?
08:57To protect you.
08:58From what?
08:59From whatever you did.
09:00Me? I'm not the one who went AWOL and returned with near-broken knuckles.
09:05Dad?
09:09Oh.
09:11Hi. I didn't know you were here.
09:13I'm home. For good.
09:16Because Mum's gone?
09:17That's not why.
09:18Well, you do know she's gone, right?
09:20She left me a voicemail. Something about not being cut out to be a mother.
09:24Which makes no sense, because she was great while she was here. She loved being a granny.
09:29I thought she loved being a mum, too.
09:32Oh, she didn't go through with it?
09:34No, love. She's gone.
09:37Well, why's the bag here?
09:38PC Swirling dropped it off earlier. There was some kind of brawl at a pub near the airport.
09:42And she left it.
09:44Well, is a purse in there?
09:46No.
09:46Her passport?
09:48Sorry.
09:49Like he said. She's gone.
09:53So what have you done now?
10:08You just couldn't help yourself, could you?
10:11So what did you do? Pay her off?
10:13Kim did nothing.
10:14Oh, come off it, Dad.
10:16She has tried everything to see her off.
10:19Drugs.
10:20Threats.
10:22So go on. How did you finally break her?
10:24I did nothing. I swear.
10:26On what, Kim? Because nothing is sacred to you.
10:28Don't stop. Kim was nowhere near. It was me.
10:31Look, Rose left because...
10:33I don't know.
10:34I don't know.
10:35I don't know.
10:36Look, Rose left because...
10:38I found her trying to break into the safe.
10:41I confronted her and she fled.
10:43Next thing I know, Swirling's here with her bag,
10:46banging on about cautioning her because of her brawl.
10:49Her room?
10:51Cleared out.
10:53So you're saying she planned it.
10:55She tried to rob you and she planned to go.
10:58Sounds that way.
10:59Well, you drove her to it.
11:01You did everything to get rid of her.
11:03I mean, you even tried to spike her and ended up drugging me.
11:06No, don't...
11:08It was Rose who spiked your drink.
11:11You're lying. Why would she do that?
11:12Well, when I caught her red-handed,
11:14I gave her the chance to walk away with some cash,
11:17but only if she told me the truth.
11:21She said that she did it
11:23to try and put a wedge between me and Kim.
11:26And she succeeded.
11:27No, she cared about us
11:30and the kids. She wanted us in her life.
11:34She wouldn't be so cruel.
11:36Don't waste another tear on that woman.
11:41I really believed her.
11:42You're better off without her.
11:44We all are.
11:54How did I get this so wrong again?
11:58So we kissed?
11:59Goodbye.
12:00We kissed goodbye.
12:02We did.
12:03We did.
12:03And I thought you got the wrong end of the stick.
12:08But you didn't.
12:09So we're both on the same page.
12:10Great.
12:12Why didn't you just set me straight?
12:13Because I'd messed you around so badly.
12:15I'd been so cruel, unforgivably so.
12:18So you decided to date me out of guilt?
12:20No.
12:21Not exactly.
12:24I told you that I didn't want you to be happy,
12:27but I do.
12:27So when it seemed like you wanted me in order to be happy,
12:31I thought I'd be a stand-up guy.
12:35You are not the catch you think you are, Dr. Romance.
12:38Yes, you have been unforgivably cruel.
12:41But I forgave you, even though I know you'll always be clouded by my past.
12:45And you were gonna lead me on?
12:47Again?
12:48That's not kindness.
12:49It's cowardice.
12:52I'm so sorry.
12:53You always are.
12:54Just follow your flowers and chuck yourself out.
12:59Of course.
13:02And Liam, I will get my happy again.
13:07And not because I'm old or someone takes pity,
13:10but because I deserve it.
13:21That'll be 24.60, please, mate.
13:27When you're ready.
13:29Hello, Tom.
13:32Sorry, mate, what's up?
13:35You, uh, you gonna pay for this or just keep me hanging?
13:39All right, mate.
13:40Peak hour, this.
13:43Sorry, man, I'm really messing me up.
13:44Yeah, today's definitely the day for it.
13:47Tom there!
13:48You fancy a cheeky pie?
13:50Uh, where?
13:52The pub.
13:54What, full of Belle's family?
13:55No, Tom.
13:56You all right?
13:57What, apart from the breakdown of my marriage?
14:00Nicola's left me for good in the past, and I've left her,
14:04but we always found a way back to each other,
14:06because on the day that we made our vows,
14:10the love was there, just like it was for you and Belle.
14:15We vowed to be together forever, till death do us part.
14:19And you might still be,
14:21but it has to be on her terms and in her time.
14:24You need to give her as much space as she wants.
14:28You get that?
14:30I do.
14:31I know exactly what I need to do.
14:43Shouldn't have.
14:45No, you're right.
14:45I shouldn't have.
14:46You can bin them.
14:48Oh, well, I thought you'd be a bit more cheerful.
14:50Heard that Ella did the walk of shame from yours this morning.
14:52Oh, she had nothing to be ashamed of.
14:55Yeah, just my clumsy way of asking if you two are back on track.
14:58Nope, nope, not now, and not ever.
15:02I'm sorry.
15:03Oh, don't be.
15:04Don't be, it's a good thing,
15:05because I bungled it so badly that I have no right in good conscience
15:10to anything resembling a relationship ever again.
15:18Hiya.
15:19Chas, would I be able to clock off early tonight?
15:21More fight club.
15:23What was Josh on about earlier?
15:25What, Josh was back again?
15:27It was nothing.
15:28Didn't look like nothing.
15:29Did he get over?
15:30No, he's long gone.
15:31What did he want, is he coming back?
15:33No.
15:33Well, how do you know?
15:35Oh, come on, Samson, the least you can do is fess up about why he was here.
15:38Right, he was just checking.
15:40I was keeping his name out of it still.
15:42That's all, it was no big deal.
15:43No big deal?
15:46I just threw him a job here, mate,
15:47because I feel sick every time I go back in there.
15:51I know that if he'd have had the chance, he'd have done worse.
15:53No, all right, you're all clear of him now.
15:55He was just here.
15:56He seems the type to bear grudges, come at me when I least expect it.
15:59He won't.
16:00And you can swear to that, can you?
16:03Even if he doesn't, mate, I'm gonna keep looking over my shoulder now, aren't I?
16:06I thought I was safe in this village to be me, but thanks to you,
16:09he's just free to come here whenever he wants.
16:12You're me.
16:13Right, he's not my mate.
16:15Not anymore.
16:16You're still protecting him, though, aren't you?
16:18I'm no snitch.
16:19And as if you'd be okay me dobbing to the police.
16:22You.
16:22I'm not okay with you letting that scum off scot-free, though.
16:26Are you?
16:32She really cleared it out.
16:34Forget her.
16:36You must have hated me for getting it wrong about spiking my drink.
16:41I was awful.
16:43It's done.
16:44She's gone.
16:46For how long?
16:47For good.
16:49Hopefully.
16:50All you need to worry about now are those kids of yours.
16:53You and me.
16:54Well, we've got time to fix things.
16:58Thank you, Kim.
17:07Things have worked out well for you.
17:09Well, that woman turned you against me.
17:12Now, Dawn, I understand, but you?
17:15You know me better.
17:16And now you're accusing me of getting rid of her altogether.
17:20Because I do know you, Kim.
17:22I know you like your revenge.
17:24Not when I've already won.
17:26Rose was gone.
17:28And no way Dawn will forgive her for spiking that drink.
17:31Only one way to make sure that she doesn't have the chance.
17:36I know what you're doing.
17:38Making me defend myself so as I don't have time to doubt you.
17:41Well, I do doubt you, Will.
17:44You've bruises on your knuckles.
17:46How many times?
17:48I hit the kitchen worktop.
17:50You have been stacking lie upon lie.
17:53Not even bothering to keep them consistent.
17:55Because I was panicking.
17:56Obviously. Why?
17:58To cover up for you for what you've done.
18:00Deflecting again.
18:01Why would I want to hurt Rose?
18:03Because something happened between you.
18:06No.
18:06Liar.
18:07We didn't do anything.
18:08But you're willing to believe that I would kill someone over a secret fling?
18:14Yes.
18:15Because that would mean the end of us.
18:19And you know that.
18:26How about night?
18:28I mean, if anyone's got a reason to come after me, it's him.
18:30Sure.
18:31He's a hater.
18:33Got a load of them.
18:34A lifetime's worth.
18:35Oh, cheers.
18:38What are you gonna do?
18:39Chase after everyone you've ever wronged or has wronged you?
18:42Yeah, if that's what it takes.
18:43Why waste your time?
18:45Because I'm on the hook for arson.
18:47I could go to prison.
18:48Sorry, what don't you get here?
18:50They have to prove it first and they can't.
18:52Well, you seem pretty certain about that.
18:54What, do you know something that I don't?
18:56No.
18:57It's just, it's doing my head in not knowing who came after me.
19:01And if they're coming again.
19:04Caleb.
19:08This is a blip.
19:09A blip?
19:10Yeah.
19:11Someone lashed out.
19:12They are long gone by now.
19:14The police have no idea who they are.
19:15None of us do.
19:17There's no point trying to figure it out.
19:19Right.
19:19So what are we meant to do?
19:21We crack on.
19:22Knowing that we're innocent and the police have no way of proving otherwise.
19:26So we just crack on?
19:27Yeah.
19:28It's all we can do.
19:30Drink your wine.
19:41We're good.
19:46Yeah.
19:48Matthew mentioned that you had his back earlier.
19:51I'll always have your back.
19:54Even if we don't agree with how that looks.
19:57I'll always do right by us.
20:17Right.
20:27I didn't touch Rose.
20:29Do you believe me?
20:31I didn't touch Rose.
20:32Do you believe me?
20:33Does it matter?
20:34All that matters is that Dawn can't find out just how cruel Rose's intentions were.
20:39She already has an inkling.
20:40Yeah, but any more details and it'll just open a whole can of worms.
20:44So we keep lying?
20:46I am sick of the lies, Will.
20:49Do you want this to work between us?
20:52Yes.
20:53Right then.
20:54I choose to believe that you didn't have anything to do with Rose's disappearance.
20:58Do you believe me?
21:01Did you cheat on me with Rose?
21:03No.
21:06Then I choose to trust you.
21:08But we need to get our story straight.
21:11And, Will, don't make me regret it.
21:16As you know, I don't do well with disappointment.
