02:37yeah that's me right
02:51I said I was gonna treat you well I arrived first so it's on me
03:00okay I thought you said it were getting better it's gonna take a while but it
03:10helps knowing that I've got you by my side you know you are pretty amazing
03:15putting up with all my baggage and the accusations false accusations Tom
03:22why can't people just mind their own business if only you know let's forget
03:26about that let's just focus on us I feel like we need a bit of a reset so
03:32let's start over with me taking you out on a proper date pick you up at lunchtime
03:39say 12 yeah okay great I think something special and then we can go pick up Esther
03:46and spend the afternoon together you don't actually have to sit here waiting
03:53on me well someone needs to be here we agreed remember that was the hospital
04:01that called earlier there's been a cancellation for the op oh wow 114
04:06tomorrow they want me to do a pre-op first thing and I'm pretty much
04:13straightaway assuming I pass wow that's brilliant mom
04:17it's scary too obviously but it's great news
04:21hi for you Mackenzie maybe no more babysitting no for you and it's got me
04:28better than waiting months and surgeon she knows what she's doing
04:32yeah and she knows all the risks and made sure I knew them too well she still
04:38thinks you should have it done though perhaps she doesn't like me as much as I
04:41thought I'm scared Matty I know have you spoken to Cain no there's no point
04:55they just say go ahead the sooner the better he doesn't want to accept that
05:01there could be problems not really mommy he loves you he just wants what's best
05:06for you like me what's with the sudden doubts suppose it was easier when it was
05:12months away it's like when you arrange a night out but when it comes to it you'd
05:18rather stop in and stay on the sofa this isn't a joke mom yeah come walk with me
05:30no please it'll help me explain it's all right for you but you're not next to
05:40the bathroom listening to it drip all night and it won't get any better for
05:44being ignored no no I imagine not now in fact in my experience once one washer
05:48goes yeah I hear you bear I will call a plumber a plumber for a few washes well
05:54obviously unless you want to step in oh no no no slippery slope never get
05:58involved with other people's waterworks yes such wise words yeah now what you
06:03need is an adjustable spanner a screwdriver or maybe an allen key I
06:06could just call Sam I'm sure he wouldn't mind messing with my waterworks I take
06:12his mind off Sampson too ah right enough toot sweet though Liam toot sweet
06:18hey Billy hey hi how's he getting on yeah yeah he's good thanks
06:25oh better than dead it's just just a work thing box size I'm glad I'm a
06:31doctor hey I was actually gonna come and see you you were right about the car
06:40how bad then he gave me 200 most out of pity I reckon yeah sorry I'll keep my
06:48eyes peeled and I know that the budget's not great but as soon as everything's
06:52healed up for you we'll get you some work up at the farm it's not gonna be
06:54enough yeah but it's a start and it's a heck of a lot better than doing
06:58something really really stupid Oh terrific what I have to know you really
07:04don't because whatever they're paying you it's not worth it it's for me not
07:08the money what let's forget about it's nothing I've got a guy I've been on
07:18that was so peaceful here yeah it's beautiful just wish it didn't exist she
07:35was so full of life wasn't she I mean we should be jetting off to Rome or New
07:40York to see her latest exhibition yeah colonizer causing havoc all the award
07:45ceremonies yeah she was so happy she'd gone through all the pain and horror and
07:53she had this whole world of opportunity right in front of her and it was over
07:58gone just like that it's a fragile life is this is different
08:06well it's not though this operation everything can change in a heartbeat and
08:13I can't let my kids be without their mum I'd let Holly down and I don't want to
08:18let the rest of you down either I know what it's like losing your mom even if
08:24she was useless I'll be through enough you're not gonna die more right and you
08:31didn't even let Holly down not even close you weren't there son I know how
08:38much she loved you how much she'd be rooting for you it's not that simple it
08:44is though if Holly was here now mom she she'd want you to do everything you can
08:49to get better you've never stopped on the sofa when a big night outs an officer
08:54don't start now should be getting back just a just a few more minutes
09:03you know I'm a terrible patient right non-stop moaning and full of self-pity
09:25for weeks that's a yes come on as much as you want mom you don't have to knock
09:35that would be a place for you well if I've got to do it although Kim is
09:39trying to I'm not interested in whatever you and Kim are rowing about is she in
09:42no how's the kids I'm not here for a catch-up can you just tell her that I
09:48came round you don't actually want to spend time with her do you you do know
09:51what she did to me this is not some petty falling out it is compared to
09:55whatever's going through no nothing I just I meant his illness nothing new
10:01oh good so long as there's no worse can you ask her to phone me oh fine I'll do
10:08it myself what is it that you need maybe I can help you're my daughter I will
10:13always do whatever I can for you and the kids at least let me help them
10:22things are a bit tight it's just we've got to keep the house warm for Evan it's
10:29just having a knock-on effect on stuff what do you say why do you think I can't
10:35keep pretending it's gonna be okay not with Marlon dropping off casseroles I
10:39won't be complaining about that if she'll get him to drop one off you sorry
10:44but I'll get you the cash what do you need a couple of grand five I'll pay you
10:51back it's for a car I'll sort it I promise thank you
11:00all right we'll have a brew and then we'll check that you've got everything
11:08what time do we need to be the hospital tomorrow not till the morning 7 a.m.
11:13right fine I'll see if Amy can take the day off unless you wanted Kyle and Isaac
11:16to come with us what no I don't even want them known about it
11:21yeah well mom you can't keep it quiet you're gonna be in hospital for what
11:25like a week a few days that can you just slow down
11:33I'm sorry mom but you do need to talk to him after they'll only fuss and worry
11:42and you're doing enough of that for the three of you besides if I tell them
11:47Kyle will be straight on to Cain oh you're not serious well I'm not telling
11:51him over the phone he come racing down here from Aberdeen and he probably put
11:55himself in a ditch while he's at it mom it's not up for discussion Matty right
11:59and what about Mackenzie or is that a stupid question no one needs to know
12:04until it's done look you can drop me at the hospital and be back here in time to
12:08do the breakfast and the PE kits and whatever else is needed I'm not just
12:12dumping you and running well I won't be going at all if you keep being difficult
12:16right okay fine well I'm telling Amy because unlike you and Cain we don't do
12:20secrets all right what secrets are these then
12:40well it's a good job you called they were all but perished I'll sort the
12:46kitchen one out and we'll be done I thought it was just the the bathroom
12:51was the problem yeah but it's right though once one goes
12:54don't tell him that you know when I meant what I said yesterday about you
13:02being a good dad right and I'm sure Samson will soon get into the swing of
13:09things and start opening up to you no offense Doc but do you know about being
13:14inside no well I wish I didn't neither and I could fool myself into thinking
13:20everything's gonna be all right I mean perhaps it will but you're right
13:25you're right it's not exactly my specialist subject do you fancy a cuppa
13:30I actually remember to fill up the kettle before we started no I'm all
13:33right feels like he's building these walls shutting me out well maybe just
13:44learning to cope you don't want to do with me and I don't blame him who'd
13:51want this as a dad oh Sam I'm sorry I've left me wrench upstairs
13:57come on then what I missed I say now mum what's the problem there isn't one
14:03can you just leave me to do things please Matty I just want a bit of
14:07normality why come on you get me worried I hope mum's got she's got a burn on her
14:17arm yeah I just I had another absence seizure yeah well she was cooking yeah
14:22but I'm fine look it's nothing anyway how come you're here when I spoke to you
14:28earlier you were in Aberdeen so I was on my way down I wanted to surprise you
14:32as if I'm not confused enough oh sorry I wasn't thinking anyway dad's
14:39doing a lot better hope the larks this morning driving our
14:43Deb's nuts practically bullied me into coming up oh and you listened that's
14:49good can you go and check on the cars the cars cows you know what I mean just
14:57can you just give us a bit of space stop arguing with me I'm buying you a drink
15:08two pints please beer I'll get these no thanks how's them grandkids of mine
15:13this is a bad idea I'm going on no no it's all right I'm done now anyway you
15:19stay you deserve a break been in the scrap accident at work
15:25well come on I'll bring your pints over
15:31I'm going to Leeds if you like I just feel like it's way more special here
15:35what's the point in showing you off in a place full of strangers
15:38Tom I'm not a prize pony anyway we're in here all time you're right I'm sorry I
15:44just wanted to do something nice for you I caught up thinking that the more time
15:50we spend in here the more normal it'll be for everyone and that way people will
15:54be used to the fact that we're a couple whether they like it or not there you go
15:59lot thank you so when is it a big fight I'm gonna try and talk me out of it
16:08then I wait if I thought you'd listen but if you want me to keep my mouth
16:14shut around on the meeting and what's going on I'm serious Billy like you're
16:18not in the right headspace and it could get way worse so what if it does look at
16:23least I'm actually doing something what does that mean I feel useless I just
16:29want to be a good dad like the best I can be but with Evan being so ill I
16:33can't even help my boy so you're punishing yourself that's not what it is
16:38it's a way for me to escape reality I guess it's the only thing I have control
16:43over surely that would depend on who you were fighting that doesn't matter
16:47because I'm the one who's stepping up getting in the ring and when I'm in
16:53there there's nothing else I can think about this is helping me deal with the
17:00worst thing that's ever happened to me so I'm begging you please just keep this
17:05to yourself sorry the boxes shouldn't have been looking no it's only a
17:22toolbox none of this is your fault you know Samson's is gonna have to find the
17:29best way he can of getting through it as long as you know he is a good lad and
17:33that's down to you I don't know about that well I do right then kitchen tab
17:39yeah and forget the tea I'm buying you a pint since we're finished
17:47thanks Doc but I'm gonna take our bell snaring snaring yeah I was thinking
17:52about it upstairs she's never been before as far as I'm away and since I
17:56can't do out for Samson at least I can help her take her mind off everything I
18:01still owe you a pint though I could see you down the pub later after you're done
18:05snaring you're on you know Cale and Isaac are gonna be so excited to see you
18:17really missed you I've not been gone that long I spoke to him plenty so what's
18:22going on between you and my nothing well we're just we're getting on each
18:27other's nerves you know I mean it's not his fault I don't like someone
18:31hovering over me all the time well you've got no choice not until you have
18:36the operation yeah and about that don't say you've changed your mind again no
18:44it's just a bit overwhelming you know thinking about it then don't not if
18:48you're stressing you out let's cross bridges when we get to him you'll be
18:54okay on your own while I go and have a shower yeah
19:09hey Debbie yeah your dad got back home safely but it's just Debbie what is it
19:17what's wrong he's napping again how was he on his walk slept through that too
19:26but Jenny did say that he'd be tired so let's try not to try not to worry I know
19:33I've been horrible to live with recently yeah well we've both been shat oh right
19:38you're not denying it then I don't have I've not been myself here so well we
19:45should be pulling together not sniping at each other not sleeping in separate
19:50rooms sorry doors open didn't want to disturb sleeping babies or parents I
19:58wish stop looking so worried I thought it all through and and I get it not the
20:15fighting part but feeling powerless but it's exactly how I felt when Ruben was
20:20sick I mean it's not exactly the same obviously so you're not gonna say
20:24anything no thanks but I'm not letting you do this on your own especially not
20:31after last time you need someone looking out for you and for keeping you in shape
