00:00Will you marry me?
00:01Yeah.
00:02Prince!
00:04Guess what? We just got engaged.
00:06You've got to get to the hospital.
00:08So we've just given birth.
00:09I am going to be part of Sienna's life, whether you like it or not.
00:13So if you try and stop me, I will take care of you.
00:16One way or another.
00:17You all right? Where's the baby?
00:19The doctor said we need to prepare for the worst.
00:26Wow. Someone went to town on the Potatoes Bravas.
00:28I'll see you tomorrow for Tapas and Tipples.
00:31I'll do some more of these Tati Bravas that you like so much.
00:58MUSIC PLAYS
01:21I can't sing alone
01:23Cos I forgot the song
01:25So how does it go?
01:26Who left the bath running?
01:34This is my punishment for cheating on Hunter.
01:38Her baby might not make it and it's all my fault.
01:45Gracias. Tell your amigos.
01:48MUSIC PLAYS
01:56I know what I saw.
01:58But what if her eating disorder's back?
02:05Why am I the prime suspect and not your father?
02:09Please don't call him that.
02:11We've decided to stick with Jess for now.
02:15Sienna, I'm sorry about Mother leaving the taps on.
02:18That was one of the first times we realised something was wrong.
02:21It's OK. No lasting damage done.
02:23Yeah, I know, but I still think I should take her to the care home
02:27so she can be properly supervised.
02:29You know how much she hates her there.
02:31And besides, I've been thinking about what Lib said and maybe she's right.
02:35Maybe Martha should come and stay with us.
02:38I mean, if she's not well, she should be with her family.
02:41Really?
02:43Yeah.
02:45That's why we can keep an eye on her.
02:47You know the bathroom's flooded?
02:49Yes.
02:51OK, well, can you help me?
02:53Because I've still not heard from Prince
02:55and I want to go to the hospital but his baby's still sick
02:58and I don't want to get in the way.
03:00OK, well, you're his fiancée,
03:02so I'm sure he'll just be happy that you're there for him.
03:05Come on.
03:07Help me with these.
03:10Come on.
03:14You might have won the battle,
03:16but you're not going to win the war.
03:18Sooner or later,
03:20those girls are going to realise that I'm sane
03:23and that you've been lying all along.
03:25OK, who's up for going to get a coffee while we wait for that to dry?
03:29Oh, I'd love that. OK, my treat.
03:31Oh, thanks.
03:33I'll see you later.
03:35Bye.
03:37Bye.
03:40But the fact that he came through the night,
03:43that's a positive, right?
03:45It is.
03:47But at this point,
03:49it's impossible to give any guarantees.
03:53I'm so sorry.
03:55I wish it was better news.
03:57Can we see him?
03:59Of course.
04:01The NICU is only down the corridor.
04:03I can't.
04:05I can't.
04:07I can't.
04:10I'm still tired.
04:12But he's our boy.
04:14So we...
04:16we have to be there for him.
04:18You're the father?
04:20God.
04:24You told me it was some
04:26random guy you met.
04:30I'll, er,
04:32give you a moment.
04:36I don't know.
04:39I'll be with our boy, OK?
04:51I came here
04:53to pray for my great-grandson.
04:57Do I have to pray forgiveness
04:59for his mother, too?
05:06Hola.
05:08I brought you the new menu.
05:10There's going to be lots of tasty treats.
05:14Oh, come on.
05:16It'd be great to see you there.
05:18And put with Prince's baby being in intensive care,
05:20I think it would be great if we could all just
05:22come together, yeah?
05:24I don't think we can make it.
05:26I've got work late.
05:28And you said you were meal-prepping tonight.
05:30I feel so sorry for Prince.
05:32I bet he feels so guilty knowing he's the dad.
05:34At least they've got each other.
05:37It's the birth of a baby, but, of course,
05:39not that they're actually a couple.
05:41I'd go for an hour, couldn't I?
05:43Yeah, great.
05:45Well, we'll see you at Casa later.
05:47Do you mind me?
05:49No.
05:51But remember, you've been struggling lately
05:53and the last thing we need is something setting you off.
05:59Oh, let me guess.
06:01An iced oat milk latte with a caramel shot
06:03and a cinnamon swirl.
06:06Yeah, you know me so well.
06:08Yeah, well, I did know how to put a smile on your face in the morning.
06:10Yeah, just a shame your expertise ends
06:12at caffeine and pastry.
06:14It doesn't.
06:16What's with the family outing, anyway?
06:18Hang on, don't tell me.
06:20You're looking to swindle another landed gentry?
06:22It's just coffee.
06:24By the way, um...
06:26Dilly and Prince got engaged yesterday.
06:28I just thought you should know.
06:30OK.
06:35Besides, if I was planning on revisiting the past,
06:37I'm not sure your sister would be top of my list.
06:39No?
06:41No.
06:43Not even close.
06:45Right, well, uh...
06:47I'll leave you to it. I hear a stagecoach coming, so...
06:49You enjoy the world.
06:57No way am I leaving you alone
06:59with my granddaughter.
07:01She's also my daughter
07:04and I would never hurt her.
07:06Only yesterday you were plotting
07:08on doing away with those sisters.
07:10Word of warning.
07:12I'd forget yesterday ever happened
07:14if I were you.
07:16Or this won't end well for you.
07:18What won't?
07:26How is the wee man?
07:30Macebo thinks that we should bear ourselves.
07:32In case he doesn't make it.
07:34Prince, I'm so sorry.
07:36How's Zoe?
07:40She thinks that this is
07:42her way of being punished.
07:44Well, she's right.
07:46How can you say that?
07:48I told everyone that Dad was just
07:50a one-night stand.
07:52And you were all hoping that this could have been
07:54a way for me to live on.
07:56I mean, how could I do this to my own brother?
07:58That was going to be my question, too.
08:01Pearl, this is not the time.
08:05Did you know
08:07that he is the father?
08:09Yes, and for what it's worth
08:11I think that Prince
08:13is a wonderful young man
08:15and that child
08:17could not ask for a better father.
08:31Why didn't you tell me?
08:35I'm sleeping with
08:37my boyfriend's brother.
08:39He's been praying
08:41for my soul for months.
08:43Grandma,
08:45what if my baby dies?
08:47I don't know.
08:49I don't know.
08:51I don't know.
08:53I don't know.
08:55I don't know.
08:57I don't know.
08:59What if my baby dies?
09:03How am I supposed to get through this?
09:05If that happens
09:07we'll deal with it
09:09as a family.
09:11But right now
09:13your son
09:15needs you.
09:17No, he needs people who know what they're doing.
09:21Sorry, I can come back.
09:23No, stay, please.
09:25I want to go and pray for the baby.
09:29Sweetness.
09:33I love you.
09:35Can I please
09:37think about
09:39what I said?
09:51I thought you'd be
09:53long gone by now.
09:55I just wanted to come see how you were.
09:59To see where we stand.
10:01I can't.
10:03Not now.
10:07But thank you.
10:09But listen,
10:11if Mother moves in, you have to be aware
10:13of how quickly things can go downhill.
10:15And you have to picture how this will end.
10:17Because it will. Maybe sooner than you think.
10:19Okay, but we can cross
10:21that bridge when we get to it.
10:23Martha, you should be at home with us.
10:25Okay, and this calls for a big
10:27family brunch at the dog. I'll book us a table.
10:29And I'll see you both upstairs.
10:31Martha.
10:33Give this to me.
10:37I am not going to let you ruin my relationship with my daughter.
10:39Do you understand?
10:41You need help.
10:43Preferably while locked in a cell
10:45for a very long time.
10:47I will protect my girls
10:49to my dying breath.
10:51Shall we put that to the test?
10:53Hmm?
10:57As a mother,
10:59these are precious bonding moments
11:01for both you and your child.
11:03Yeah.
11:05I will see him.
11:07I'm just... I'm still tired.
11:09Well, get some rest
11:11and I'll check in with you again later.
11:17I thought you'd be on the run by now.
11:19No.
11:21I'm not.
11:23I'm not.
11:25I thought you'd be on the run by now.
11:29Why don't you want to see him?
11:31What?
11:33Your son.
11:35We should brush off Pearl now, Miss Pat.
11:39What, you think I don't care?
11:45I've spent every waking hour
11:49reading all the books,
11:51writing down what to eat
11:53and what to avoid,
11:57doing everything I can
11:59to make sure he'd be OK,
12:01and this still happened.
12:05I've been in love with my son
12:07since the second I heard his heartbeat,
12:13picturing his smile,
12:15wondering what it's out like
12:17when he'd grow up.
12:19Wondering what it's out like
12:21when he'd call me Mum.
12:25I just wanted to hold him.
12:33And now I'm being told
12:35to prepare for the worst.
12:37And I can't.
12:41Because how can anything be worse than this?
12:43All the more reason to go and see him then, now.
12:45Just trust me.
12:47You'll regret it if you don't.
12:49Trust you?
12:55When I was still in denial,
12:57I slept with a girl and got her pregnant.
12:59Told her I didn't want anything to do with her.
13:01That isn't the same.
13:03No.
13:05But...
13:07I did what I did because I was scared.
13:11I was terrified that if my dad
13:13found out I was having a baby,
13:15he might see it as some sign from God
13:17for me to step up as a father.
13:19Oh, Guy, I can't.
13:21I can't.
13:23Sorry. Sorry. Yeah.
13:29Not being part of my child's life
13:31is my biggest regret.
13:35I just don't want you to make the same mistake.
13:43No.
13:55Prince,
13:57will you have your son down as Baby Anderson?
14:01Do you have a name?
14:03Not yet, I guess.
14:05We thought we'd have more time.
14:09Well,
14:11you decide.
14:21I'm sorry I wasn't here earlier.
14:25It's not that I don't care, it's just...
14:27You feel like it was your fault?
14:31Me too.
14:35Really?
14:37Yeah.
14:39The thing is,
14:41I think he can sense
14:43I'm close by.
14:45You know, my dad
14:47was never around growing up.
14:49And that rejection
14:51broke my heart.
14:53I know this.
14:55But my son,
14:57he's never going to know how that feels.
14:59Just tell me he's going to be OK.
15:03What with me and you as a mum and dad,
15:05he's going to fly.
15:09Yeah.
15:13How about the name Theo?
15:15It means God's gift.
15:17Theo?
15:21Yeah.
15:23I like that.
15:25You look shattered.
15:27Why don't you go home?
15:29You're starting to smell a bit ripe.
15:31Really?
15:35OK, maybe I could use a little shower.
15:39Does it really mind you being here all day?
15:41Maybe it should.
15:43Give her a call soon.
15:45But my mind's
15:47just been focused on him,
15:49you know.
15:53Listen, Zoe,
15:55I'm just
15:57going to
15:59say thank you.
16:01The only reason
16:03our baby has a fighting chance
16:05is because of how well you've taken care of him.
16:07And I promise
16:09I'm going to do everything
16:11to protect him too.
16:13Because all I want to do
16:15is make his world
16:17a better, safer place
16:19for him to grow up in.
16:21Because I love him so much.
16:38Um...
16:43Daily, um...
16:45Yeah, let's do that. Better go.
16:51Here you are.
16:53Ooh.
16:55Is that all for me?
16:57One of the perks of knowing the boss.
16:59Yes, ladies.
17:01I didn't order this.
17:03It's all free.
17:05There it is.
17:07Ooh, you want some bag?
17:09We'll show you at home.
17:11Right.
17:13I've been thinking, okay,
17:15maybe we should start
17:17trying for a baby.
17:21Are you joking?
17:23No, no, I'm being deadly serious.
17:25It's perfect.
17:27I mean, me and you trying for a baby,
17:29we could start our own amazing family.
17:31You know, like Zoe and Prince.
17:33Cleo, I love you.
17:35And you love me.
17:37What's stopping us?
17:39You always said you wanted kids.
17:41I know.
17:43I'm just going to go to the loo.
17:45Whoa, whoa.
17:47Cleo, Cleo, Cleo.
17:49Cleo, hey, is she okay?
17:51Hey, watch your head.
17:53Cleo?
17:55John Paul, get a cushion. Cleo?
18:03Kitty?
18:09What are you doing here?
18:13Well, I know I'm going to prison, so
18:15I wrote it all down.
18:17Everything that happened with Declan
18:19and how Bo had nothing to do with it.
18:23But before I give you it,
18:25I need you to promise me something.
18:27Listen, I'm a police officer.
18:29I don't negotiate with criminals.
18:31I helped you when you needed help.
18:33I'm just asking for the same in return.
18:37And if you say no,
18:39I'll disappear.
18:41I've done it before.
18:43Go on.
18:45The girl that I got pregnant
18:47was Lizzie Jen Williams.
18:51And she gave our baby up.
18:55Does her family know?
18:57Go tell his dad now.
18:59Say that it was me
19:01and say that I hate myself for what happened.
19:03Just
19:05let me do that
19:07and you'll know all about
19:09what happened that night.
19:11Deal?
19:25Just so you know,
19:27this is important to you. Gathering changes nothing.
19:29So you're going to eat up
19:31as fast as your dentures will allow,
19:33and then you're going to leave this village for good.
19:35A cider for Jess.
19:39And a small dry sherry for you.
19:43Oh, this is really nice.
19:45Yeah, I just thought after the last few days
19:47and all of the bombshells,
19:49it would be good for us to sit down and debrief.
19:51And, um,
19:53I have something for you.
19:57When I reconnected with Mum
19:59all those years ago, she gave me this bracelet
20:01that she got for me when I was a baby.
20:03If you don't want it,
20:05I wouldn't be offended.
20:07I'll treasure it forever. Thank you.
20:11Jess,
20:13can I ask you a question about our mum?
20:15Uh, yeah.
20:17Of course.
20:19Well, you clearly loved her very much.
20:21I did.
20:23So then why on earth would she choose a man like Patrick
20:25when she had a kind and gentle
20:27soul like you?
20:29After the miscarriage,
20:31I was
20:33completely devastated.
20:35We both were.
20:37And then after that,
20:39although we tried,
20:41it was just never the same between us.
20:45You mustn't blame yourself, darling.
20:47I wasn't.
20:49When tragedies like that occur,
20:51well, you know,
20:53it's a difficult, sustainable relationship
20:55and both parents
20:57grieve for what might have been.
20:59And some men, you see,
21:01might have thought of only for themselves
21:03and bolted.
21:05Or could have lashed out
21:07at somebody who was trying
21:09to help them.
21:11But not my Jeremy.
21:13And when she was at absolute rock bottom
21:15and she really needed help
21:17and she needed him more than ever,
21:19he was there
21:2124-7.
21:23Weren't you?
21:25It must be so hard for you to remember that time.
21:27Oh, you don't know the half
21:29of it, darling.
21:31Does she?
21:33I'm so sorry.
21:35Excuse me for a moment.
21:37Oh no, is that me?
21:43He wears his heart on his sleeve.
21:51Ah!
22:13Ah!
22:21Ah!
22:23Ah!
22:49Paul?
22:51You OK?
22:53No matter how hard I try,
22:55why is it
22:57I only upset those
22:59I love the most?
23:01And yet,
23:03still you're here.
23:05Things would be a lot worse if they thought
23:07they were alone.
23:09And clearly they never are.
23:11You ready?
23:13Come on.
23:21Come on.
