00:00Got to wait for the results, Anna, and hopefully we'll have alterated his cancer.
00:04There's been a change of plans. My dad's going to...
00:06Yeah, he might be yours, but he's also mine too.
00:08If Lucas ever finds out what we did, he'll never forgive you.
00:11JJ, you have to go to court tomorrow and plead guilty.
00:14Frankie won't stop until she gets justice.
00:17Frankie, come on, home time!
00:30MUSIC CONTINUES
00:52Right, Frankie?
00:54Got to go soon, come on.
00:57Hey, Kate.
01:05Where is she?
01:10What are you doing? The trial's today.
01:20Oh, Prince!
01:22What are you doing defrosting your scrammed-up radiator again?
01:25The microwave's broke. What's a guy to do?
01:27Prioritise your son and your fiancé instead of your flabby arms.
01:30Flabby? Nah, these bad boys are swole.
01:33Prince, swole. Go on.
01:36How are you feeling about your chemo results today?
01:40It's what it is, isn't it?
01:42You know I'd come with you, right? I've got loads on at work.
01:46I'm a grown woman. Don't need you to hold me hand.
01:48Or maybe you could give me a call from the hospital, eh?
01:52I will give you a call.
01:53OK, good. Oh, er, Misbah made you that CD.
01:56Oh, old school.
01:58Yeah, it's from Donny.
01:59Supposed to help you through today, you know, positive thinking and all that jazz.
02:03Well, I'm already feeling positive enough.
02:05Call you in a bit, yeah?
02:07Good luck.
02:09Yeah, well, I thought she was at Vicky's watching a movie too.
02:11She obviously lied.
02:13Of course I'm going to get her to the trial.
02:17All right, Nancy, I'm going to go, all right? See you there.
02:20Love you. Bye.
02:22Frankie, where have you been all night?
02:25And why was an eye invited?
02:28I ended up crashing a freshers' party.
02:31And then it was two-for-one on drinks at the loft.
02:36Look, Frankie, you're 16, OK?
02:38You're due in court in less than an hour.
02:39And the last thing she needs is to start panicking about this trial.
02:44I know you're angry with me meeting JJ,
02:46but I think, finally, I got through to him yesterday.
02:51So we might plead guilty and there'll be no trial?
02:53Look, we don't know how this is going to go, OK?
02:56But let's just stay positive and we'll see what happens.
02:59We're all rooting for you, kid.
03:06Look, I tried to call you.
03:07You broke our pact.
03:08What, because I don't want my baby being raised by a stranger?
03:11This isn't Oliver Twist, Lia.
03:13All right, there's plenty of good people out there willing to raise a child.
03:16Look, you and me, we were one drunken mistake, OK?
03:19And the baby wasn't planned.
03:20But my dad can raise him better than I ever could.
03:23Look, I'm not happy about giving up my baby, either.
03:27It was different when I thought I didn't have to see him every day.
03:29Dylan, no-one's stopping you from being a dad.
03:31Yeah, Lucas would be real happy with that, wouldn't he?
03:34Safe flight, then.
03:36Hey, what are you looking so miserable for?
03:39This time tomorrow, you're going to be summing it up in California.
03:42You ready to go and say goodbye to your dad?
03:44Uh, no, not yet.
03:45There's something I've got to do first.
03:51How are you feeling, son?
03:52Did you get some sleep?
03:54I've been thinking about what you said all last night.
03:57If I did plead guilty, wouldn't that make my sentence lighter?
04:00It's not about getting off the hook.
04:02It's about the truth.
04:04What's it like?
04:06Prison?
04:08Whatever happens, you'll be in a Young Offenders Institute,
04:12and I'll come and visit, make sure you're OK.
04:14But when I'm 18, I'd move to an adult prison,
04:16where they'd make life hell for a sex offender.
04:18I know it's scary, son, but you have to be brave.
04:21Like I've told you, the sooner you're honest, the sooner this will be over.
04:25It's how you keep saying, but it's not you who's on trial.
04:30Come on.
04:35JJ, come on.
04:44Darren, come on, we're going to be late.
04:46Yes.
04:48Someone want to say good luck to Frankie?
04:54Leah, I thought you'd gone to uni?
04:56I am going.
04:57Look, I am so sorry for showing up like this.
04:59I wasn't sure if you'd want me here, so I messaged Darren.
05:01He said to be here for 10 sharp.
05:03Benji, what?
05:04Of course I want to see you.
05:06Even if I am a bit sick that you're off to your dream uni,
05:09and I'm stuck here like some sad sack.
05:11Your dreams are going to come true too.
05:13What, working in Price Lies?
05:15Frankie, you are the bravest person I have ever met.
05:18Once you get this trial done, there is literally nothing you can't do.
05:23I think you are not sad.
05:25You're a hero.
05:27Come and see me in California when this is over.
05:30Yeah, you're right.
05:32Right, Frankie, go now, you know?
05:34Okay.
05:35Thank you, Leah, for everything.
05:39Good luck.
05:45Recycling school dinners to grow flora.
05:50Jez Blake, I bow to your genius.
05:53You know what?
05:54I didn't feel too clever this morning when I woke up to find you'd licked it.
05:58Sorry, my bad.
06:00I nipped home.
06:01Mercedes gets her results today.
06:04I think she's more worried than she's letting on.
06:06And in true Mercedes fashion, she's trying to be strong for the family.
06:11Well, if everything goes well, I will be down at the Allotment.
06:14In case you fancy joining me for a bit of mulching.
06:19Or not.
06:20I'm sorry.
06:23You know, whenever anything has gone wrong in my life,
06:28which has been many, many times, she's always been there for me.
06:31You know, supporting me, giving me strength.
06:35I know that she's a nightmare.
06:37Giving me strength.
06:39I know that she's a nightmare.
06:41And I know that she's the most selfish McQueen.
06:42But the truth is, the truth is, she means so much to us.
06:49She's so important to this family.
06:52She's living in a world and it's on fire.
06:56Filled with catastrophe.
06:58But she knows she can fly away.
07:01Wow, is that Buddhism?
07:04Alicia Keys, another lioness.
07:08Sorry.
07:10This is her now.
07:14Hi.
07:15It's good timing.
07:16Just on a break at work.
07:17Yeah, so you can fit me in then.
07:19Sweetheart, you are my guardian angel.
07:23And I never told you how much you mean to me.
07:25Are you back on AO?
07:26Just take the compliment.
07:28Well, I'm about to go in, okay, so.
07:30Put me on speakerphone, yeah?
07:32I love you.
07:33Love you too.
07:38Hi.
07:41I got your CD.
07:43You're welcome.
07:44I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet.
07:46But honestly, I feel so strong.
07:48Like, I've got loads of energy.
07:50I'm running around house like Wonder Woman.
07:52I just really feel like it's working.
07:55Anyway, results.
07:58So, unfortunately, the last course of chemo
08:02hasn't shrunk the secondary tumour on your liver
08:05as we'd expected.
08:07So, I'm not sure if I can do it.
08:09I'm not sure if I can do it.
08:10I'm not sure if I can do it.
08:11Okay, um.
08:14What's next?
08:16There are potentially other treatment options.
08:18One particular type of chemotherapy
08:20is producing some encouraging results
08:23with this kind of tumour.
08:24Okay, let's do it.
08:25Like, when? This week? Today?
08:29Well, there's a UK shortage right now.
08:31But I'll do everything in my power to source it.
08:35So, I don't want you giving up hope.
08:38You have to stay positive.
08:49If I don't get this drug,
08:53how long have I got?
08:54I don't think that...
08:55Vesper, please be straight with me.
08:58Well, every patient is different.
09:01Glass half full.
09:03How long?
09:10Possibly a year.
09:17Half empty.
09:25You have to get me that drug.
09:33JJ, you can't be late for this.
09:36Sorry.
09:37I'm just feeling a bit...
09:39Are you okay? Have you taken something?
09:42JJ!
09:43JJ!
09:43Help!
09:45Help!
09:46Help! Someone call an ambulance!
10:02Look at you two.
10:05Just perfect together.
10:07I'm so glad you've stopped all this
10:09revenge talk
10:11about Rex.
10:13Because that little baby there,
10:15it's all that matters, isn't it?
10:17Yeah.
10:20You and the boy with no name are getting on, then?
10:26It's amazing.
10:29Bit stinky.
10:30Wonder where he gets that from?
10:33Yeah.
10:35So is this it, then?
10:38Are you really going to leave us?
10:42I mean, I was really excited about it before,
10:45but now that it's here...
10:48So we'll stay, then?
10:50Go on, we'll get us a takeaway
10:52and we can watch the latest Spider-Man movie, can't we?
10:56That's way more fun than a long-haul flight to the States, isn't it?
11:03Yeah.
11:05I remember when you was a baby.
11:08You were tiny, perfect.
11:12Me and your mum were worried
11:14that we couldn't provide for you
11:17or raise you.
11:22But look at you.
11:24Despite what life has thrown at you,
11:27you are ready to take on the world.
11:30It's just a degree, Dad.
11:31From San Diego, studying law.
11:34Legal studies.
11:36But you'll be a top lawyer one day.
11:40My little Leah Lyon.
11:43First one in our family to go to uni.
11:46And I'm so proud of you.
11:48I wonder what James would say.
11:51Probably something snooty about Americans not being able to spell.
11:56100%.
11:58I think I want to call him James.
12:02You know, that way he'll be with us every day.
12:07Oh, Leah.
12:10That is so sweet.
12:14See?
12:16Yeah.
12:18Yeah.
12:19I would really like that.
12:23Yeah, I would too.
12:27You both take care of each other, yeah?
12:28Yeah.
12:30Oh.
12:31Come here.
12:36Remember, you can come back and visit whenever you want.
12:43Come on, babe.
12:44It's time to go.
12:52Have fun.
12:53No more one-night stands.
12:56I love you, Dad.
12:59I love you more.
13:11Why is nobody telling us what's happening?
13:13The paramedics said one of us can go with them.
13:16Well, I'm not leaving Frankie.
13:17Darren, at least come to the hospital.
13:22I don't know, I just-
13:23It's okay.
13:24We can go.
13:25Go.
13:27What did JJ say, anything?
13:29Before he collapsed?
13:30Oh, he's petrified.
13:31Talking about going to prison.
13:32At one point, I thought he was going to do a runner.
13:34Maybe the pressure got too much?
13:36Yeah, collapsed just as he's about to face the music.
13:38Darren, I saw him up close.
13:40He looks really strange, like he's on something.
13:44What are you thinking, Frankie?
13:45That he's not sick, he's acting, same as always.
13:50So much for getting him to tell the truth, Jack.
13:56I'll go with him.
13:58That jealous old bagging the chippy cuts my portions every time.
14:01Right, I'll watch him jealous off.
14:03No.
14:04Kids, chippy!
14:05What, save some for Mercedes?
14:06I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
14:08You can't say that.
14:12Misbah.
14:13I called into the hospital pharmacy after you left,
14:16and I rang round all the hospitals in the area.
14:20And?
14:22And I was told you were sick.
14:25I can't get hold of the chemo drug we'd ideally like to give you.
14:31I will keep trying, but it's not looking like we'll be able to source it.
14:37I'm so sorry.
14:39There is an alternative one we can try.
14:56Yeah.
15:01You're all here.
15:04But Frankie, this wasn't how it was meant to go.
15:11I was going to go into that courtroom and say-
15:14Stop lying.
15:16I'm not.
15:17Jack thought he got through to you.
15:19That you were finally going to admit it.
15:22But he doesn't know you like I do.
15:24And the only person that you care about is yourself.
15:27Frankie.
15:28Do you have any idea how hard it was for me to go to court today?
15:32To prepare myself to relive all the disgusting things you did to me?
15:37You have ruined my life and my family!
15:41Frankie, please.
15:42No!
15:42And instead of facing up to it,
15:44you try to wriggle out of it when I have to deal with this every single day!
15:48That is enough!
15:50Please.
15:52Sorry.
15:54Go on.
15:56We ran some tests when you were brought in.
15:59And we have some news about what caused your collapse.
16:04Go on.
16:08I'll tell him.
16:12JJ.
16:15I'm really sorry.
16:19You've got to keep me.
16:23I love you.
17:23I love you.
17:54So...
18:14Mercedes, it's the Fredster and Grace in the house!
18:18The Fredster.
18:20Don't you misbehave if we'd send you some well wishes and put down some tracks?
18:24Put down some tracks? You are not Mark Bronson!
18:26Would you quit interrupting me?
18:28Listen, what I'm actually trying to say is that we've made you a playlist.
18:31The second track's mine.
18:32I'll make you want to get on your feet and have a bounce.
18:34Pound your head off the wall.
18:36Pack it in!
18:38Listen, you're a proper trooper, Mercy.
18:39And we're all dead proud of you.
18:40So you just keep shining bright every single day.
18:42Because whether you like it or not, you are our queen.
18:45And you always will be.
18:47We love you, babe.
18:48Got cheese on her.
18:50Don't you wish your girlfriend was hot like me?
18:54Don't you wish your girlfriend was a freak like me?
18:59I'm drinking rum and Red Bull.
19:03And you see, you let me have it full.
19:05You want me to get awful, like you want to dance, I'll get ground full.
19:09And I'm rum and Red Bull.
19:13And you see, you let me have it full.
19:15You want me to get awful, like you want to dance, I'll get ground full.
19:19Start the day with a flask.
19:21Spend me spice in a glass.
19:22If you like, you'll find me lost.
19:24I'm the only liquor for me and my own boss.
19:27Drink the junk that me endorse.
19:29After the flask, then we move to the pot.
19:31Tell the bartender the bill restart.
19:34What kind of rub me use?
19:35Wash off me heart.
19:36If you hide and drink, then you must get caught.
19:38I'm drinking rum and Red Bull.
19:41And you see, you let me have it full.
19:44You want me to get awful, like you want to dance, I'll get ground full.
19:48And I'm rum and Red Bull.
19:51And you see, you let me have it full.
19:53You want me to get awful, like you want to dance, I'll get ground full.
