00:00Were you about to do something stupid?
00:04Kitty, it's quite simple.
00:08Either disappear, without a trace, or I will end you.
01:00I'm sorry.
01:19Hey, here she is. I made you some breakfast. You sleep well?
01:30Hi.
01:40Will you just stop following me around?
01:43I've had enough of you lingering in my living room like a bad smell all night.
01:47I'm sorry. I'm just worried about your...
02:00I'm sorry.
02:13Your dad's not happy with you.
02:19Maybe something. I've made you my famous poached eggs. Break my heart if you don't touch it.
02:25What heart?
02:27What?
02:30I need to get to work.
02:32Does it hurt? Hey, Cleo, come in. Come in.
02:35Stay away from me!
02:38Look, Cleo, yesterday things got out of hand.
02:42Why don't you take the day off work, and I will as well, and...
02:46You know, I could spoil you.
02:48You've already spoiled everything.
02:49Don't say that.
02:51I still love you.
02:53No.
02:54See, you use that word, but you don't really know what it means.
02:57Do you do this to people that you love?
03:03I need to go to work.
03:04No, Cleo, don't leave. Don't leave!
03:06Please!
03:08Look, if I don't go to work, then people will ask questions, won't they?
03:21Today's just a bit last minute for a prison visit, OK?
03:24We've got a first day back at work tomorrow. We have to be sorted for it.
03:26Yeah, and listen, Warren needs to understand that he's not the big man about town anymore.
03:30He can't just click his fingers and everyone come running.
03:32Well, when we get Norma's post-mortem results back,
03:34it'll prove that he's innocent and he'll be back in the village.
03:37Oh, I can't wait.
03:39Look, Joel, you haven't been to see him once.
03:43Look, if you change your mind, I know he'd really appreciate it.
03:47So would I.
03:49Right.
03:51Listen, don't feel bad.
03:53Right, we need to be ready for work tomorrow.
03:55And they're going to give us a couple of tests, make sure we are ready.
03:58Drug tests, medical tests, things like that.
04:00Yeah.
04:09Do you know what? I, erm...
04:11I might be sleeping a little bit under the weather.
04:13Maybe there's a way we could postpone it.
04:15What, you don't feel ready to go back?
04:17What, you don't feel ready to go back?
04:19No, of course I am.
04:23Right.
04:24At least just show up for the medical, yeah?
04:26And the drug tests, they're quite strict about it.
04:35Is he?
04:36What's with the bags?
04:39I'm leaving.
04:41Today.
04:42You're leaving?
04:43Right, well, when will you be back?
04:45Yeah, what about Beau?
04:47I'm so sorry, Tony, he deserves so much more than he got.
04:49Hang on a minute, you'll have to wait for R.O.
04:51He's going to be absolutely devastated.
04:53Yeah.
04:54I can't.
04:55I'm sorry.
04:58Thank you for everything.
04:59Vicky?
05:02What?
05:04You're not so worried about James, are you?
05:06What about James?
05:08Nothing, love.
05:11I haven't actually told Leah about finding the pills.
05:13I didn't want to worry her.
05:14I just...
05:15You know, when you whisper, it only makes me want to listen more.
05:18Aren't you meddling off in my business?
05:20After yesterday?
05:24Listen, can you do me a favour?
05:26Can you go and check on James for me tonight, please?
05:29Steve, listen, if you are genuinely that worried about him,
05:31you need to get him professional help.
05:33You know, sending people around to pressure him
05:35when he's asked you to leave him alone
05:36doesn't sound like the best idea to me.
05:38Yeah, that's really good advice.
05:40I know.
05:45Hi, good morning.
05:46Can I come in?
05:47I've, er...
05:48Well, I've brought you some of these...
05:50Yeah, I've brought you these.
05:52The cornerstone of any nutritious breakfast.
05:56I did send you a message saying I was working from home.
05:58Yeah, I know.
05:59I just...
06:00I just wanted to make sure that you'd eaten.
06:03I'll have a coffee if you make him one.
06:04Thanks.
06:05Milk and sugar?
06:06Mm-hm.
06:16I know what this is.
06:18Steve's sent you round
06:19to do some sort of ridiculous wellness check, hasn't he?
06:24He said that he'd seen you earlier buying loads of bottles.
06:28Have you been drinking in the morning?
06:30No more than usual.
06:33He also said that he'd found you over some pills.
06:37He found me with some very basic, store-bought painkillers.
06:42And he thought,
06:43what's better for a man with a headache
06:45than a morning visit from Maxine Miniver?
06:47Wow, rude!
06:49You know what's rude?
06:50It's Steve spreading false rumours
06:52that I'm having a breakdown because he cheated on me.
06:55In fact...
06:59James!
07:08You all right, Cleo?
07:10Yeah.
07:11Long day.
07:12How's the baby doing?
07:16There's still no news.
07:17No news is good news sometimes.
07:19I mean, every day gives them a better chance, right?
07:23You've been in there all night. You look exhausted.
07:26The most important days is when the baby's just been born.
07:31That's when they form their bond.
07:34And I don't want him to miss out
07:36just because he might not make it, you know?
07:40You know?
07:41Always knew you'd be an amazing dad.
07:43Cleo, I've been trying to call you.
07:46Are you on your lunch? Can we get some food?
07:49I'm just catching up with Prince.
07:52You all right? I should go and get my head down.
07:54And I still haven't spoken to Dilly.
07:56Go on.
07:57I need to say bye to Theo before I get off.
08:10James?
08:11Oh, what is it?
08:13Surprised to see me alive?
08:16Camp entrance.
08:18OK.
08:21What were you thinking, sending Maxine round?
08:24I don't need a babysitter.
08:25Well, you made it very clear you didn't want to see me, all right?
08:28And I'm worried about you.
08:29Yet I find you with a load of pills.
08:31James, it's hard enough being a part of him
08:33without worrying that you've done something stupid to yourself
08:35or you've hurt yourself.
08:36Is that what you're talking about, of Leela?
08:38Your father rather indulgently believes
08:40that his dalliance with the local lowlife
08:42will be the death of me.
08:45I've got news for you.
08:47I've survived bigger disappointments than you, Stephen.
09:00Thanks for seeing me, Cleo.
09:04When you were a child,
09:07when you left early, I was worried
09:09that you were going to make a decision in the heat of the moment.
09:14Cleo, I'm so sorry.
09:20Yeah.
09:21I've, um...
09:23I've got anger issues.
09:25I always have done.
09:27And I'll do better, all right?
09:29If you give me another chance, I'll do better
09:32and I'll make sure that you'll get the life that you deserve.
09:35You showed me what life with you would be like last night.
09:38What me walking round on eggshells all the time
09:41and just waiting for you to go off like a volcano.
09:43I don't want that, eh?
09:45Yeah.
09:46Yeah, I know. I know.
09:50It's because of the way that I grew up, I...
09:52I wouldn't wish that on anyone.
09:54I had a really messed-up childhood as well, you know?
09:56But I don't use that as an excuse to hurt people, do I?
09:59Katie was right.
10:00People like you, you just...
10:02You don't deal with your problems.
10:04You just make them everybody else's.
10:06I will. I will deal with mine.
10:08OK? I'll go back to anger management. I will.
10:12I was just about to message.
10:14Sally's getting a takeaway in tonight.
10:16I wondered if you guys wanted to join us.
10:18Uh, no, not tonight.
10:20I think she just wanted the whole family together.
10:22But no pressure, obviously.
10:23Another time?
10:25Sorry, this is her now.
10:27John Port, wait.
10:28Where are you going? Where are you going?
10:30What are you going to tell him?
10:31Nothing, all right? I'll see you later, OK?
10:34Look, Abe, you said you had a class anyway.
10:36I'll cancel it, OK?
10:38I can fix this.
10:40Yeah, you will, you will.
10:41You just need to work on yourself, OK?
10:43I will, all right?
10:45For you, Cleo. Yeah?
10:47And for the baby.
10:49If...
10:50If that's what you still want.
10:53Yeah.
10:55Yeah?
10:56Yeah.
10:57I love you so much.
10:59All right? You won't regret this.
11:00I love you too.
11:03OK.
11:07I need your help.
11:20All right?
11:23You look nice.
11:26Nice of you to finally visit.
11:29With the chance to see that friendly face, who could say no?
11:31You don't look too great yourself.
11:37You didn't do it, did you?
11:40I'm going to pretend you didn't ask me that.
11:42I'm being set up.
11:45But it ain't going to work.
11:46We're visiting you in prison, Warren.
11:48I'd say it's work to treat so far.
11:50The post-mortem will clear me.
11:52And then I'm going to find out who's behind this,
11:54and I'm going to deal with them.
11:56And I'm going to deal with them.
11:57What then?
11:58You get banged up for murdering them instead?
12:00It must be really comforting for you as a family.
12:02I'm not going to sit here and be patronised
12:04by someone who looks like they've walked off the set of trainspotting.
12:07I told you to pack that stuff in.
12:10You might be able to fool Leela, but you don't fool me.
12:12I'm not here to fool anybody, Dad.
12:14All right? I came here to visit you
12:15because Mercedes says that's what you wanted.
12:17If it's not,
12:19I've got a million other things I could be doing.
12:21Fine.
12:22I'll drop it.
12:23Anyway, get some snacks in while you're up there on your IRS.
12:30Warren.
12:32Look,
12:33he's banning off me being stuck in here away from my kids.
12:37Without panicking that, I'm going to wake up one morning
12:39to find out that my son's overdosed.
12:42Look, I can't keep him away from the smack stuck in here.
12:45That's why I need you to help me do it.
12:47I'm not busy enough looking after your little kids.
12:49You want me to look after your big and an all?
12:51We're the only ones that know that he's using.
12:54I've already lost one child.
12:57I can't lose another one. It'll kill me.
13:01Please.
13:13Are you seriously going to leave without saying goodbye?
13:16Came to my senses, didn't I?
13:18You in trouble, Kate?
13:19No, more than usual.
13:21It's just cleaner like this.
13:23I don't want anyone else getting into trouble because of me.
13:28If Bo does decide to let you see him again,
13:34just tell him that I...
13:36He knows.
13:37Well, hey, go on then, young man.
13:40Help me with these bags.
13:52I don't know what I'm going to do without you.
13:56What if...
13:57What if my brother forgets who I am?
13:59And then you're not there to tell them?
14:00Then you'll tell them.
14:03Because you know exactly who you are, right?
14:06Yeah.
14:07And what's your name?
14:10Roan.
14:11And you know you better than anyone.
14:16Yeah, thank you.
14:18Yeah, thank you.
14:20Trying to have a heartfelt moment over here.
14:23I'm going to miss you, kid.
14:30Good to see you.
14:33Yeah.
14:48Goodbye.
14:51Cleo, do you want me to pack some kitchen stuff?
14:53No, John Paul, I just need the essentials.
14:55I need to get out of here before A gets back.
14:59Are you sure that all this is just because of him and Theresa?
15:02Yeah.
15:03I just couldn't handle it.
15:05I'm just going to do another sweep of the bedroom, OK?
15:14You must be the next sorry float on Steve's intervention parade.
15:18Yeah, no, but nice to see you too.
15:32Is that my cashmere jumper?
15:34Yeah, it is.
15:35Obviously I have enough money to get another one,
15:37so I just nicked it indefinitely.
15:39Then Dad said he saw you surrounded by a load of pills.
15:42Oh, for the last time, there...
15:43You know, I just kept thinking, what if you had gone through with it?
15:46What if I thought the reason you'd done it is cos I'd stolen this?
15:49Or just... Take it.
15:51I can't have that on my conscience.
15:54It's very good of you.
15:57As per usual, your father is overreacting.
16:01If you could perhaps remind him that my welfare is no longer his concern.
16:05Yeah, he's not the only one who's concerned.
16:10Oh.
16:13Right.
16:16Leah, I'm fine.
16:20All right, I'm not fine,
16:22but I'm not going anywhere for the foreseeable future.
16:24They were just headache pills.
16:28Take it.
16:33Do you not love my dad any more?
16:37You know, I used to think you were the smartest man I ever met,
16:40but if you're willing to throw away what you do have, then maybe not.
16:47DOOR SLAMS SHUT
16:52Cleo, are you staying forever?
16:55Well, I'm sworn off men, so, yeah.
16:58Probably be here till the end of time.
17:00Great news on both counts.
17:02Well, I'm delighted that you're back living with John Paul and me.
17:05No disrespect to those not present, but we are the smart queens.
17:10Oh!
17:11And I think it's healthy for the children,
17:13for us all to be living in the house.
17:15It's a bit harsh on the rest.
17:17It's harsh on us.
17:18I've always wanted to go on Family Fortunes,
17:20but I can't, cos we'd get destroyed.
17:23Bobby's smart.
17:24And a murderer, so, obviously...
17:27KNOCK AT DOOR
17:28Finn!
17:29Takeaway's here.
17:30Right, girls, would you go and wash your hands, please?
17:33John Paul, get the plates sorted while I speak to the man.
17:36Thank you very much.
17:46KNOCK AT DOOR
17:52What's that video?
17:54Nothing.
17:56Everything all right, love?
17:58Yeah, yeah, erm...
18:00I've gone and forgotten something really important back at the flat,
18:04so I'm just going to go pick it up.
18:06Want me to come with you?
18:07No, no, no, it's fine.
18:09Save you some food?
18:11Yeah.
18:16Thanks for agreeing to come and see your dad today.
18:19I know he wouldn't have made it, but I think he's pretty lonely in there.
18:22Yeah, Dad's been lonely his whole life for money.
18:24Is that Warren?
18:26Any update?
18:28I heard he killed his mum.
18:29Well, he didn't. He got framed for it.
18:32And he'd do something like that?
18:34He'll be out in a week, anyway, so...
18:37I'll stick the champagne on, lads.
18:39Yeah.
18:40Hey, Mers,
18:43I didn't just turn up today for my dad, all right?
18:45No.
18:46Well, you said I'd be doing you a favour for Cain,
18:48and the truth is, I need one.
18:50Oh, what have I got wrong in my head?
18:52A favour for foxes? No, thanks. Ask Leela.
18:54Leela can't find out about it, right?
18:56I start work tomorrow, I'm going to be drug tested.
18:58Obviously, I'm...
18:59I'm going to fail.
19:01So, I need you to help me cheat it.
19:08All right.
19:10Is that James's jumper?
19:12Did you knit that when we left?
19:14Well, of course not. How dare you?
19:16I just saw him earlier. He practically thrusted it upon me.
19:19You saw James?
19:21Mm-hm.
19:23How was he?
19:25Right, Dad,
19:27I genuinely do think he just had a headache, OK?
19:33Oh. Mm-hm.
19:35Right. Yeah.
19:39But it's not my fault, OK? I panicked.
19:42You know what it's like when things don't go his way?
19:44He self-destructs, he...
19:47He needs me to look after him.
19:49No, I think you both just need each other.
19:54He still loves Gina.
19:56I mean, he told me.
19:58Really?
19:59Yeah, basically.
20:01This is the end for you two. I can tell.
20:03I don't know.
20:06Sometimes love isn't enough.
20:08Right, trust me, James will be back here before you know it.
20:11He'll come round going all,
20:13''Well, I didn't mean for it to get this far,''
20:15and, ''Come on, let's work on it.''
20:18Well, I really hope you're right.
20:20I bet you this is him now.
20:22Q-Rap's free, you're free,
20:24and now you've run into each other's arms,
20:26it's dead, dead cringey.
20:31Might want to re-check your script, know it all.
20:34Hey.
20:38I'm here on behalf of James.
20:40I told you.
20:43He's asked me to deliver these to you.
20:47It's tea.
20:49They're divorce papers.
21:00You made me believe that we were going to try for a baby,
21:03and then you just leave without a word.
21:06Hey, but where did that video come from?
21:08What video?
21:10Oh, you mean this video.
21:14Turn it off.
21:15Yeah, I put a camera in our bedroom for security purposes.
21:18Turn it off!
21:20What, just before the good bit?
21:23Where are you?
21:24You recorded me with him.
21:27You look like you were enjoying it. Were you enjoying it?
21:30I don't know what you think this means.
21:33If you think it's going to keep us together...
21:35Now, if I saw that on the internet,
21:37I would say that you look like you're enjoying it.
21:40Yeah, if I saw that on the internet,
21:42then I would think you were the type of girl that did it all the time.
21:45But it's not on the internet, is it?
21:49Is it?
21:51No.
21:53No!
21:55Do you really think that I would leak a video of you, my girlfriend,
21:59on the internet, like that, for the whole world to see?
22:04Yep.
22:05That's my word to you, Cleo.
22:13No-one will ever see that video as long as we're together.
22:20Now, go and get your stuff and come back home.
22:23Come back home.
22:53Come back home.
23:11Make sure you get some sleep before work tomorrow.
23:13You'll need it.
23:23You'll need it.
