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