00:03 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:31 Oh, not again.
00:33 Hey, it's OK.
00:34 I'll have this.
00:35 I'll put you some more in now.
00:37 What were you listening to?
00:38 I could hear it upstairs.
00:40 Just one of Mum's favorites.
00:42 Doesn't matter, it's a blast from the past.
00:45 Actually, I thought it was really nice.
00:47 I've converted to them.
00:49 Music's like time travel.
00:51 It's amazing.
00:52 It can take you anywhere.
00:54 Did your mum have any favorites?
00:56 Maybe I'll just get some from the cafe.
00:58 Right, I better move, especially since you're
01:00 taking up the kitchen.
01:01 I do live here too.
01:03 I'm going to finish getting ready.
01:05 I thought maybe we could have breakfast together.
01:08 Oh, I didn't realize we were celebrating something.
01:11 Dog needs feeding, so our breakfast were her.
01:13 He's simmering all the time.
01:21 I can feel it.
01:22 And you know those disappointed eyes?
01:26 Sometimes I just want to kick him in the shins.
01:28 Well, it'll be a right pain all around if you split up.
01:31 Cheers for that.
01:32 So do you want to cancel Tom's work review then?
01:35 No, but I am treading it.
01:37 I don't blame you.
01:38 Now he's seen you blowing your stack with Marlon at his house.
01:42 Though the food was nice that night.
01:44 Has he mentioned it since?
01:44 The food?
01:45 No.
01:46 But I tell you what, he is always watching.
01:50 Ness, I'm dead nervous.
01:51 Please will you just do the review with me?
01:53 But you say I'm dead tactless.
01:54 You are, but that's one of your better qualities.
01:56 So when I'm floundering about, I can just chuck you at him.
01:59 Please.
02:00 I'm already freaking out about seeing this therapist.
02:03 I don't think Tom likes me.
02:04 I'm happy to go and off you myself.
02:05 All right then.
02:06 Yes.
02:07 Should we do it in here though?
02:08 Because it's just a little bit more relaxed.
02:10 Yeah, and you won't have to bump into your husband.
02:11 Shut up.
02:12 Although that is true.
02:15 This therapist has got her work cut out, hasn't she?
02:18 I'm getting sick of this.
02:21 She ran into the street again, and I had to catch
02:23 her with everyone looking.
02:25 OK, well next time, just hold her back with your foot.
02:27 A vet kicking a dog.
02:29 Great.
02:30 I didn't say kick her.
02:31 Did I?
02:32 I said just hold her back.
02:33 I've had hundreds of dogs.
02:34 I know what I'm talking about.
02:35 I'm not getting into this when you've made me late for work.
02:38 All right, cheer up.
02:39 And I got my performance review today
02:40 with those hormonal twerps.
02:42 Don't laugh at me.
02:44 Tom, can I not find you funny anymore?
02:49 You're not supporting me, Belle, at all.
02:51 I'm working all I can because we're
02:53 supposed to be saving money and trying for a baby,
02:55 and you just swan about here.
02:57 I've taken today off for a reason.
03:00 All right for some.
03:01 I got a parcel coming at 1.
03:03 You'll need to wait for it.
03:04 Well, I was going to go out.
03:05 You know what? Forget it.
03:06 Just forget it.
03:07 Everything is such a trial with you.
03:09 I was going to suggest going out for food later, but why bother?
03:12 OK, I'll stay in.
03:14 Tom, I just said I'll stay in.
03:16 Can we go for dinner or not?
03:23 Hi.
03:24 You feeling better this morning?
03:26 Good one?
03:29 Fabulous.
03:30 The nearest I got to nature, the last place I lived
03:32 was dog poo bags in half-dead bushes.
03:33 [LAUGHS]
03:36 You look nice.
03:37 Ta.
03:38 I've never had a competition winner for a boyfriend.
03:42 Well, second, more of a loser, really,
03:44 the more you think about it.
03:45 I mean, there were only two entrants.
03:47 Oh, don't sulk.
03:48 There's always next year.
03:50 So, um, I saw you leaving in your car yesterday.
03:56 And?
03:57 Well, I--
03:58 I know it's silly.
03:59 It's just because you said you were ill.
04:02 Am I missing something?
04:04 Because if you're regretting me moving in--
04:05 No, not at all.
04:07 Has Mandy said something?
04:08 Only I was a bit short with her the other day.
04:11 What about?
04:12 She was just poking a bit.
04:15 Did she manage to prise anything out of you?
04:17 Like what?
04:19 Nothing.
04:21 I am so sorry.
04:22 It really is none of my business if you just want to go
04:24 out in your car, obviously.
04:26 Cheers.
04:27 Thanks for that.
04:29 You, uh, going anywhere nice?
04:32 Just out.
04:33 Kim found minty.
04:45 There's the pick.
04:47 I wish they'd headlined it, "Little Kim
04:49 Peep Has Found Her Sheep."
04:51 Because Kim would have so hated that.
04:53 Look at little Kyle and Isaac.
04:55 Aw.
04:56 I used to love the fit when I was little.
04:59 I hope Tom's being extra kind to you today.
05:02 Because it's your mum's anniversary.
05:05 I don't think he knows.
05:07 And I don't want to guilt trip him.
05:09 It's a sad day.
05:11 You're going to need extra cuddles.
05:13 Well, he's lost his arm, mum.
05:14 I don't want it to be a competition.
05:15 Who can cry the most?
05:17 Is that bad taste?
05:19 No, of course not.
05:21 Look, me and Sam, we're going to head out
05:24 to Lisa's favorite picnic spot.
05:26 And we want you to come.
05:30 I've got to wait in for a parcel.
05:32 A parcel?
05:34 Since when does a parcel trump a picnic?
05:36 I know it's daft, but Tom's been really stressed at work.
05:39 And we've been bickering this morning, so--
05:42 Bickering about what?
05:44 About staying in for a parcel.
05:46 Well, why don't you just stick a note on the door?
05:48 I know it's silly to you.
05:51 No.
05:52 Push my mouth.
05:53 Fair enough.
05:54 I'm sorry I shouldn't snap.
05:56 Belle, I get on my own nerves sometimes.
06:00 So when's it due, this parcel?
06:03 1.
06:04 Right, well, why don't we hang back a bit?
06:07 And if you've not come up to us by 1.30,
06:10 we'll know you've had a better offer.
06:11 Fat chance.
06:13 You never know.
06:14 All right, ta-ra, love.
06:16 Bye.
06:16 Much nicer in here than in the surgery, don't you think?
06:26 Unless we have a slanging match.
06:28 Oh, well, that's not going to happen, is it?
06:29 Because he is the golden boy that won us
06:31 the backseat Bernie contract.
06:32 Yeah, Bernie can't stand me in here.
06:34 God knows why.
06:35 No, Paddy.
06:36 Which we get.
06:37 [LAUGHTER]
06:40 Sorry, sorry.
06:41 You know what we're like.
06:42 Yeah.
06:44 So on the whole, we're really pleased
06:48 with how things are going.
06:49 OK, sounds good.
06:50 Yeah, clients really like you.
06:52 And the feedback's been very positive.
06:54 I have to say, I was thrilled when I
06:56 got the contract from Bernie.
06:58 And I think it's given the business a really big boost.
07:01 All right, big Ed.
07:03 And I've got lots of ideas for changes
07:05 I think we should be making.
07:06 I mean, come on.
07:09 We don't want to get stale.
07:10 No, we don't.
07:11 So I was thinking maybe we could stay open later.
07:15 And of course, I'm more than happy to do more shifts.
07:19 As you know, Belle and I are hoping to start a family.
07:23 And as you know, we all adore Belle.
07:25 And that's all great.
07:26 But can we just double back to the performance review?
07:30 Oh, sorry.
07:31 I thought we'd done it.
07:32 Oh, no.
07:33 Not entirely.
07:34 And the positive stuff is all really great.
07:37 But there are a few areas of improvement
07:41 that I think we could be thinking about.
07:44 OK, OK.
07:47 When you say we--
07:48 We mean you.
07:50 Uh-huh.
07:51 [BIRDS CHIRPING]
07:54 Right then, Piper.
08:09 We tried, didn't we?
08:11 Shall we go on a picnic?
08:12 Shall we go on a picnic?
08:13 Come on.
08:14 Come on, girl.
08:15 [DOOR OPENS]
08:18 Quick, Caleb.
08:20 Hospital.
08:20 Now.
08:21 Hey.
08:22 They've just called me.
08:23 They're going to wake Nicky up.
08:24 Come on, run.
08:25 We've got to get there when he wakes up.
08:28 Hang on, wait.
08:29 Wait, shall I put the freezer stuff away first?
08:32 What?
08:34 OK, stop.
08:35 Hang on.
08:36 Um-- I don't know if I want to go.
08:43 What if he's not right?
08:44 What if he's got brain damage?
08:45 [BREATHING HEAVILY]
08:48 We need to be there.
08:54 Come on.
08:55 [MUSIC PLAYING]
09:01 Lads, we made it.
09:12 Is there room for two little ones?
09:14 We picked up some scran.
09:15 [DOG BARKING]
09:18 Sammy?
09:19 [BIRDS CHIRPING]
09:23 [SIGHS]
09:26 [BIRDS CHIRPING]
09:30 [SOBS]
09:41 [SOBS]
09:53 [SOBS]
09:57 [BEEPING]
10:10 Thanks.
10:20 He's my favorite person, other than my colorist
10:24 on a bad hair day.
10:25 Just rest, don't try and speak.
10:37 Is Sonny OK?
10:38 Typical.
10:44 We make all the effort, and he gets all the attention.
10:48 Yeah, do you know I got at least three speeding
10:50 tickets getting here.
10:51 That's probably a ban.
10:53 You can talk him out of anything?
10:56 Yes, he can.
10:57 Yes, he can.
11:02 It's really you.
11:03 You're all right.
11:05 And Sonny is completely fine.
11:07 He'll be here soon.
11:09 You were worried about him.
11:10 That's why you got in the car.
11:12 He's OK, though.
11:13 I promise.
11:16 I thought I could hear you crying in my sleep.
11:19 Well, he's been on a lot of medication.
11:23 He was crying.
11:26 We all have been.
11:28 And Ethan, he was with me.
11:32 Is he OK?
11:33 He's fine, too.
11:37 There's barely a scratch on him.
11:39 Here he is, our hero.
11:42 I bet you say that to all the heroes you meet.
11:44 We're really pleased with him.
11:46 Now, lots of rest for the moment, Nicky.
11:48 No more marathons for a couple of weeks,
11:49 and you should be fine.
11:51 That's us getting our marching orders.
11:53 Thanks for everything.
11:54 Tell that doctor if he cracked his smile every now and again.
12:01 His patients might want to wake up a bit quicker.
12:03 You're outrageous.
12:04 I know.
12:07 Welcome back, baby.
12:09 I love you, son.
12:11 We'll check in on you later.
12:12 Really must have been touch and go.
12:15 If you're getting the big feelings out.
12:19 We just love you.
12:20 [MUSIC PLAYING]
12:24 [BEEPING]
12:27 Thing is, we're all on a learning curve.
12:53 But misdiagnosing a dog with cancer
12:56 is a steeper learning curve than most.
13:00 I thought we dealt with this weeks ago.
13:01 Which makes me feel dead shirty and all.
13:04 Or my Camilla, cross-shirty.
13:06 Don't we all at times?
13:07 Criticism is vital for learning.
13:10 It is, yes.
13:12 I accept that.
13:14 This has been so useful.
13:17 But I have to say, I am really sorry if I've
13:19 been adding extra pressure, because I know that you're
13:21 already struggling at home.
13:24 Well, I mean, I'm not proud of losing my temper
13:26 a couple of weeks ago.
13:27 But that was in a social situation.
13:29 Well, it's not just that.
13:30 Given how thin the walls are at the surgery,
13:35 I hear everything.
13:38 And I got the impression you were a bit embarrassed,
13:42 hence as to why you brought Vanessa along today.
13:44 Which is fine.
13:45 But come on.
13:49 Two employers in a public space when
13:51 it should have really been one in a professional environment.
13:56 Look, I'm glad that you and Marlon are getting counseling.
14:00 I think it's actually really, really brave.
14:04 Right, I promised I'd ring Bell.
14:07 I don't want to upset her.
14:08 We're going to go for a late lunch.
14:09 Bring her here?
14:11 Don't think I haven't seen that quiche.
14:13 I'll tell Brenda.
14:14 [LAUGHS]
14:17 It's actually the anniversary of Lisa's death.
14:20 So I thought I'd spoil her a bit.
14:23 With you and Marlon being family,
14:24 I thought you might remember.
14:25 But it's OK.
14:27 Keep an eye on Bell for me, would you?
14:33 I know how much she likes you.
14:35 Thanks, Tom.
14:38 Well, it's not like you've got a whole lot else going on,
14:40 is it?
14:41 [LAUGHS]
14:43 OK.
14:44 [FOOTSTEPS]
14:48 Do I feel guilty or angry?
14:53 What just happened?
14:55 Hi, it's Bell.
14:56 Who even leaves messages anymore?
14:59 I do, Bell.
15:00 I leave messages.
15:01 You just don't respond to them.
15:04 Right, I'm trying to be nice here.
15:06 I'll be at the Hyde in half an hour for food, like we agreed.
15:11 If you're there, you're there.
15:12 And if you're not--
15:13 [SIGHS]
15:16 [FOOTSTEPS]
15:19 Cheers.
15:25 [FOOTSTEPS]
15:28 [KNOCKING]
15:31 Here's trouble.
15:32 [CHUCKLES]
15:35 [FOOTSTEPS]
15:38 [BELLS RINGING]
15:41 Every time I wake up, there's a different face.
15:52 Some are welcome, the others are better.
15:59 Dad said that you barely had a scratch.
16:06 [SIGHS]
16:09 He got that wrong, didn't he?
16:10 Um, no, this wasn't from--
16:15 no, I--
16:20 [SIGHS]
16:22 God, we were so lucky.
16:26 And Dad said that, Sunni, you were lucky.
16:35 He's OK?
16:37 Yeah.
16:39 Yeah, look, there's a--
16:40 there's, um, something I need to tell you.
16:47 Don't get all serious on me.
16:49 I'm exhausted.
16:50 Just be a good mate and read the sports page.
17:04 Then we'll talk here.
17:07 Yeah.
17:09 I don't know.
17:10 This is you with all the girls at the cigarette
17:18 factory you worked at?
17:19 Oh, yes.
17:24 I loved working there.
17:27 She was funny.
17:30 She wasn't.
17:32 She was a proper trollop.
17:34 [LAUGHS]
17:38 Happy days.
17:39 Do we look at this every time?
17:47 We do.
17:48 We love it.
17:49 Remember when cigarettes used to be fun?
18:00 You're terrible, you are.
18:01 How long have you been coming here?
18:07 A while.
18:09 Some people get no one.
18:12 Well, you've always got me.
18:15 I'm so lucky.
18:21 No, I am.
18:23 No, I am.
18:25 [LAUGHS]
18:29 Well, what's this, then?
18:34 Should we be having a look?
18:37 Anything you like.
18:40 Have we looked at this before?
18:43 Who cares?
18:45 It's our thing.
18:47 We love it.
18:58 [PHONE RINGS]
19:01 I do, Belle.
19:07 I leave messages.
19:08 You just don't respond to them.
19:11 OK, Piper, shall we get you home?
19:14 Let's get you home.
19:15 Good girl.
19:16 Come on.
19:16 [MUSIC PLAYING]
19:25 [MUSIC PLAYING]
19:28 I've made her something proper.
19:36 Mickey's on the mend.
19:39 We're OK.
19:40 So I need to sit down and eat this with me.
19:42 Out of interest, when Mickey mentioned Ethan,
19:54 did you grip my hand?
19:56 Or did you grip mine?
19:58 I think you gripped first, and I responded to show support.
20:01 Because you're lovely like that.
20:03 Thank you.
20:04 So is that one of the fleet cars we're in today?
20:12 Yeah, it was.
20:14 Because weirdly, my car went missing yesterday.
20:17 And I found it hiding in the lockup with a nice dent in it.
20:21 It's not weird if it needed to be hidden.
20:24 Yeah, almost as if somebody had used it in a hit
20:28 and run or something, and that somebody wasn't me.
20:33 Must be me, then.
20:36 Slap the handcuffs on.
20:37 I won't struggle.
20:40 Don't worry, I went slowly, barely clipped him.
20:44 And if Ethan saw you?
20:46 Oh, he knows it was me.
20:47 He was put yesterday.
20:51 What if he tells the police?
20:52 He won't.
20:53 We're square, apparently.
20:55 I think he felt he deserved it.
20:57 Some people have a conscience, and it turns
21:02 out Ethan is one of them.
21:04 Oh, five years without Lisa.
21:14 It's going to be a difficult day for her.
21:17 Oh, kitchen closes in half an hour.
21:20 So Nicky's come round.
21:22 Sunday's going to go soon later.
21:24 Oh, that's great news.
21:27 I'm going to give Bell a few minutes,
21:28 but let's hope I don't get stood up,
21:30 because I do not want to starve.
21:32 How is she?
21:33 Oh, wasn't the fight great?
21:35 How it in you don't know it?
21:38 Have you had Ethan in here today?
21:40 No, not today.
21:41 I think he's keeping his head low.
21:44 Sorry, that sounded insensitive, didn't it?
21:46 I'll just have some coffees when you're ready, please.
21:48 Mm-hmm.
21:49 You did what you had to do?
21:55 I think I just put my foot in it.
21:58 It's not really for me to say, but I
22:01 wouldn't mention anything about Lisa's anniversary to Bell.
22:05 Oh, yeah, of course.
22:06 She's struggling.
22:08 She'll be fine.
22:09 Hey, sorry, sorry.
22:10 Ah.
22:11 You're here now?
22:12 Yeah, I had to take Piper home.
22:13 Yeah, I thought that you were at home earlier.
22:16 Yeah, did we arrange a time?
22:17 Because I couldn't remember.
22:19 You can't even blame your menopause.
22:20 [LAUGHTER]
22:23 Um, share a pizza?
22:25 Well, we had pizza last night.
22:27 Yeah, but who doesn't love pizza?
22:29 Love the special.
22:30 Kitchen's closing soon.
22:31 Oh, is it?
22:32 No rush.
22:33 Oh, that's not what you said earlier.
22:34 Pizza's perfect.
22:35 Thanks, Laurel.
22:36 Can I get a lemonade, too?
22:39 Is that OK with you?
22:41 You might have whatever you fancy.
22:44 Hey, I, um, I left a few messages for you earlier.
22:49 Where have you been?
22:50 Well, I walked the dog, and then I just nipped home for a bit.
22:53 Not home.
22:54 Home, home.
22:55 Wish him well.
22:56 Sorry, that's a boss habit.
23:00 Look, there's no reason that you should remember this,
23:02 but today's a hard day for me.
23:05 So I got taken to the cafe by my bosses that think I'm all right,
23:09 but they absolutely adore you.
23:12 No way, where's that come from?
23:14 Tell me more.
23:15 Can you ring Sonny?
23:21 See what time he's coming in, please?
23:23 I'm his favorite person right now.
23:34 I left you after the crash.
23:40 I mean, I got you out, but then I--
23:42 I hid and ran.
23:47 Why?
23:50 Because A, I'm a coward.
23:52 Don't start with one of your big lists.
23:56 And B, you weren't the only one that was over the limit.
24:03 [SIGHS]
24:07 We were both scared for Sonny, so--
24:10 I mean, I shouldn't have offered to drive, but I did.
24:12 And then we crashed, and I was terrified
24:15 I was going to lose my job, so I--
24:16 I hid when Moira came.
24:21 But I knew she was going to call an ambulance.
24:26 Well, you didn't.
24:29 And--
24:30 [POLICE SIREN]
24:33 I've told the police everything.
24:39 Oh, my dad actually turned me in, and he was right to.
24:45 I'll take what's coming to me.
24:46 Mr. Anderson?
24:51 Uh, no, I'm not trying to influence anything.
24:55 He knows what I've done.
24:57 Piece of hairs, Nicky.
24:59 I meant to take your statement about the crush.
25:00 [BEEPING]
25:04 I thought you were a mate.
25:05 Aperitif?
25:24 I've already got a full set.
25:25 [LAUGHS]
25:27 [LAUGHS]
25:31 Were we once very sad about something?
25:37 We were, yeah.
25:40 But we got through it, didn't we?
25:43 We did, yes.
25:44 Hm.
25:47 Doctor?
25:48 Hm?
25:49 Um, it's Mr. Ryan, room four.
25:51 We think it might be shingles.
25:53 Right, yes.
25:54 Let's have a look, shall we?
25:56 Um, sorry, do you happen to know the woman visiting in there?
26:00 Um, I'm sorry.
26:01 I only started here this morning.
26:03 Not on speed with people yet.
26:06 Mr. Ryan?
26:08 Yeah.
26:10 What are you like?
26:11 Hm?
26:14 Want to know what I saw online?
26:15 Used baby gates, but for dogs.
26:17 We should get one for Piper, for the front door.
26:19 I mean, she can't jump over that, can she?
26:21 Look at that.
26:24 Don't be mad at me.
26:25 I asked for one thing.
26:27 You couldn't even wait.
26:28 They would have left it on the step.
26:29 What, where anyone could nick it?
26:30 Tom.
26:31 For God's sake.
26:33 You said wait till 1 o'clock, and I did.
26:35 I actually waited till 13 minutes passed.
26:37 You can be pin sharp on time when it suits you,
26:39 but you never bother to remember my arrangements.
26:42 Thanks.
26:43 Means a lot.
26:45 Well, go on, then.
26:46 I'll catch you up.
26:48 What, unless you're offering to pay?
26:50 Or not.
26:52 [SIGHS]
26:53 Oh.
26:54 Is she OK?
26:58 Did you say it's been five years since Lisa's death?
27:01 Yeah, I think so.
27:03 Well, I hope I'm not that affected by my mom's death.
27:06 Poor Belle.
27:09 Right.
27:10 I better go.
27:12 Tread on more eggshells.
27:20 Any other issues, give me a call.
27:21 Will do.
27:23 Thanks.
27:24 Like I wouldn't know you're here.
27:32 Like I can't read the guest book.
27:34 Why are you upset?
27:36 Why are you following me?
27:38 Liam, Mandy, the questions.
27:41 Are you all in on it?
27:43 In on what?
27:44 No, I'm not in on anything.
27:46 Ella, please, wait.
27:49 Look, I had to get a cab here.
27:51 Could you give me a lift home?
27:51 I don't know what I'm going to do with you.
27:59 Why are you even with me?
28:00 Why?
28:01 I don't make you happy.
28:02 I'm not happy.
28:03 I never know what you want from me, Tom.
28:04 I mean, the dog's not even happy.
28:06 Belle, please don't be like this.
28:07 Look, I shouldn't have got angry about the past.
28:08 No, you shouldn't.
28:10 Will only be an hour.
28:12 Plenty of escape already.
28:15 Hey, you off then?
28:16 Yeah, Paddy's covering.
28:17 Tom shouldn't be too long.
28:18 He'll probably change the locks on us.
28:20 Employer review went a bit awry.
28:23 It was all soft top at first, and then dead ash, and then--
28:27 What?
28:28 There's Belle giving him what for?
28:30 Serves him right.
28:31 Today's my mum's anniversary, and I spent the whole thing
28:33 worrying about how you feel.
28:34 That's your problem, not mine.
28:36 Did you even know?
28:39 How could I not?
28:40 Your face, your body language, that pathetic music
28:43 you had on in the morning, and the entire world
28:45 banging on about it all day long.
28:47 [SIGHS]
28:49 So you've not said a word.
28:50 When you know what I've been going through, but instead,
28:52 you've got wound up over some stupid parcel.
28:55 Maybe you should--
28:56 Look, Rona, they're adults, and we've got to be somewhere.
28:58 I'll check in on her later.
29:00 It was supposed to be a surprise gift for you,
29:03 to try and help you move along today
29:04 to make it easier for you.
29:07 I thought you weren't--
29:09 What, aware of your dead mother?
29:15 I couldn't be more aware if you dug her up and plonked her
29:19 outside the park, where she was probably her happiest.
29:24 What did you just say?
29:27 Don't you dare talk!
29:29 Don't you dare walk away from me!
29:30 [GRUNTS]
29:31 You hurt my--
29:32 My belt!
29:33 Why would you even do it?
29:34 I don't know why you did that, Dom!
29:36 [STAMMERS]
29:37 Hey, hey, hey, hey!
29:38 [GROANS]
29:39 [PANTING]
29:43 [MUSIC PLAYING]
29:46 It's my fault, Lisa.
29:54 It's all my fault. I'm so sorry.
29:56 Did you see what I did?
29:57 You'll be fine.
29:57 It's OK.
29:58 What's all this?
29:59 You've had a row.
30:01 I just wanted to come on the picnic.
30:02 Oh, don't worry about all that now, love.
30:04 Come on, let's get you inside.
30:05 What about Tom?
30:06 You both just need a little minute.
30:08 [PANTING]
30:12 Well, what about?
30:13 We should go into the pub until things have settled down.
30:17 I need to be with Belle.
30:18 Yeah, sorry, we need to be somewhere.
30:20 Well, this is far more important.
30:23 Is it?
30:25 I don't want to cause any more trouble.
30:26 Right, come on, Paddy can hold the fort a bit longer.
30:29 No buts.
30:31 You can even be bothered.
30:33 In your own time.
30:34 Try straightening your face before we get there.
30:35 [FOOTSTEPS]
30:38 Right, sit down, I'll get you a drink.
30:45 I need to see Belle.
30:46 Let her just calm down first.
30:48 Sit down.
30:49 [FOOTSTEPS]
30:50 What's happening?
30:53 Nothing, nothing.
30:56 Belle's just attacked Tom.
30:58 Um, two coffees, please.
30:59 [FOOTSTEPS]
31:01 All right.
31:03 [FOOTSTEPS]
31:06 Is this, uh, what you came to see me about the other day?
31:12 It turned violent.
31:13 [SIGHS]
31:16 I've done my best, but I'm her husband.
31:19 Why can't I make her happy?
31:20 [FOOTSTEPS]
31:23 I need to see him.
31:29 Yeah, you will.
31:30 Not till you're feeling better.
31:32 I knew you were sad earlier.
31:34 I should never have left you.
31:35 I missed the picnic.
31:37 It doesn't matter.
31:38 It rained, didn't it, Rod?
31:40 We bickered.
31:41 You didn't miss much.
31:43 I'm just feeling guilty all the time.
31:46 What about?
31:48 I missed the parcel, missed the picnics, everything.
31:53 Sweetheart, did you assault Tom?
31:59 Not, like, punch or kick, but I'm on into him.
32:04 I don't know.
32:06 Everything is going wrong.
32:07 [SOBS]
32:10 Well, this isn't awkward at all.
32:19 I've not known you so quiet.
32:23 Not a single word?
32:27 No.
32:28 OK, well, uh, thanks for the lift.
32:34 Mum, please.
32:37 Promise me you won't tell them about her.
32:40 Ella, there's no conspiracy, I promise.
32:43 Check the diary.
32:47 Mr. Ryan, room floor, possible shingles.
32:49 Did you go and see her yesterday?
32:54 Because Liam said that--
32:55 Mum, please don't start.
32:57 Don't ask me.
32:58 Dementia is so common.
33:03 And the nurse who showed me in, she
33:04 said she'd love to have you as a daughter.
33:06 I'll go if you keep on.
33:08 I will.
33:09 I'll leave.
33:10 I don't give a stuff about the job.
33:12 I'll sleep in my car again.
33:15 I don't want to, but I will.
33:16 She is the most important thing.
33:24 The most.
33:27 And whatever time I've got left with her,
33:29 it's time I never thought I'd get that I don't deserve.
33:35 I have to cherish each bit.
33:37 It's between me and her.
33:40 It's deep, and it's private.
33:43 And I'm all she's got.
33:44 OK, I won't say anything.
33:51 She's lucky to have you.
33:52 [SOBBING]
33:55 I'm so sorry.
34:13 Not to worry.
34:14 You're here now.
34:16 We got a bit caught up.
34:17 Well, one of us did.
34:19 She's your family.
34:20 Well, time and tide, folks.
34:22 So you're Marlon, and you're Rona.
34:25 Nice to meet you both.
34:26 My name's Carol.
34:27 Carol singing.
34:27 [LAUGHING]
34:29 Are you kidding me?
34:30 OK, I knew your name because I read your email properly.
34:34 Rona's been a bit less engaged with this process.
34:40 Well, do you want to tell me what brings you here today?
34:49 I really need to head back.
34:52 She's hard work, and she's like this.
34:53 Why didn't you say what's been happening?
34:56 Who does?
34:57 Do you talk about everything that's going
34:59 wrong in your relationship?
35:00 Me and Rona are always talking.
35:01 Usually just slagging the other half off.
35:03 That's what we all tend to do.
35:07 What we don't talk about is ourselves as failures.
35:17 I am a failure.
35:18 I'm weak because I can't help her.
35:23 Look, what you saw today, that isn't typical,
35:34 the physical bit.
35:36 I mean, I felt it going that way,
35:38 but that is the first time she has ever--
35:42 I suppose I should just say it as is.
35:45 She attacked me.
35:51 I'm going on.
35:57 I've said it till I'm blue in the face.
36:04 I am not proud of what I did in court.
36:06 I've said it.
36:07 You just talked it through with me.
36:08 Look, I don't know.
36:11 Maybe there was a small part of me
36:13 that wanted gas out of the picture after everything
36:15 you'd done to us.
36:16 No, and that's understandable.
36:17 It is.
36:18 Every child deserves as uncomplicated
36:21 a start as they can get.
36:22 And Ivy's does sound very complicated so far.
36:25 Thank you.
36:26 Rona, I'm not here to back up your decision.
36:28 Good job, because eight years is a long time in prison.
36:32 And I'd think very oddly about you if you did.
36:34 Don't speak to her like that.
36:36 So you're here because you're finding it difficult
36:38 to communicate with each other.
36:40 We nearly didn't make it, Carol, because this one
36:41 was all for getting involved in other people's
36:43 business in the street.
36:44 It was more than that, and you know it.
36:45 Yes, yes, it was more than that.
36:48 And I'm worried about Belle, too.
36:49 But we needed to be here, and you wanted to be there.
36:53 I'm here, Carol, because I need to figure out
36:56 or for Rona to tell me if I'm surplus to requirements.
37:00 Decisions get made without me.
37:02 You're in everybody's business but mine.
37:03 And I just need you to decide if we're
37:06 a proper partnership or not.
37:08 And does it always have to be Rona's decision?
37:10 Pardon?
37:14 Don't worry, she's OK.
37:24 Only, uh, she's not making a lot of sense.
37:28 She's upstairs and a lot calmer now.
37:31 I thought you were going to say she left me.
37:32 We've offered for her to come up to us for a bit.
37:38 Just till she feels better.
37:40 I hope you don't mind.
37:42 Only, can I come, too?
37:45 Maybe she'd be less angry at me if there
37:47 were other people around.
37:49 You knew, Lewis.
37:50 It's hard at the start.
37:52 No, not like this.
37:54 Not like Belle is.
37:55 This isn't teething trouble.
37:56 Something's proper got to her.
37:59 It's being reminded of her mother.
38:03 Me of all people can relate to that.
38:06 And that package you want dorsal, it--
38:09 Yeah, yeah, it's caused more problems
38:13 than it's solved so far.
38:14 It was for Belle.
38:22 A reminder of Lisa.
38:23 But I got that spectacularly wrong, didn't I?
38:29 No.
38:31 Give it to me.
38:33 I think it's a lovely gesture.
38:35 I'll take it up to her.
38:36 Got to be mad at her, didn't it?
38:43 Did she say anything about leaving at all?
38:51 I'll say this about our Belle.
38:54 She's no quitter.
38:55 She'll see it all through and back again.
39:00 [SIGHS]
39:03 I know I can be gung ho.
39:08 Kidnapping Ivy.
39:09 But with most things, I do decide.
39:10 But that's what you say you want.
39:12 Like, what film do you want to watch?
39:14 What takeaway should we get?
39:15 Stuff about the kids, you always look to me.
39:18 I'm just easy going.
39:19 Or you take no responsibility for anything
39:21 and then blame me when stuff does go wrong.
39:23 Must be great to be you, St. Marlon of the village.
39:28 Hardly.
39:31 I sometimes think you deliberately
39:33 had that stroke to make yourself more popular.
39:35 What?
39:36 Ha.
39:37 Very ha.
39:38 I'm very adult in front of a professional.
39:39 Stick it in my book of bad marks.
39:41 Oh.
39:41 Sorry, it appears to be full.
39:43 Six months ago, he would have laughed at that joke.
39:49 In fact, six months ago, he would
39:50 have made that joke himself.
39:52 OK, so we're nearly at the end of the session.
39:55 Great, pay top dollar to feel worse.
39:57 So I'll sum up for now, and then maybe
39:59 we can discuss the pricing structure if you like, Marlon.
40:04 No thanks, Carol.
40:05 It's more of a joke.
40:06 Like hell it was, tightwad.
40:08 Rona acted on a huge decision she'd
40:10 made without telling you, and that was deeply upsetting.
40:14 That's the gist of it, yeah.
40:16 So my question to you has to be,
40:18 can you see a time when you've let
40:20 your anger go and forgiven her?
40:22 [SIGHS]
40:24 I really do want that, but--
40:29 Right, well, that's it for today.
40:34 Sit with thoughts of what we've discussed,
40:36 and consider your goals for future sessions.
40:38 It needed to come from me.
40:48 We're going into the hospital.
40:50 You're going to get yourself in more trouble.
40:52 I'm already in all the trouble there is.
40:55 How did Nicky react?
40:56 No anger, just--
41:02 just a massive disappointment, which is probably worse.
41:04 [KNOCKING]
41:08 I'll go.
41:10 [FOOTSTEPS]
41:12 [SIGHS]
41:15 Ethan Anderson.
41:25 Oh, god.
41:27 Sir, he'll be OK.
41:30 Mr. Anderson, given the evidence,
41:31 the CPS have decided you'll be formally
41:33 charged with dangerous driving and leaving
41:35 the scene of an accident.
41:36 So I'll need you to come with me.
41:38 [FOOTSTEPS]
41:41 I'm not really sure what happened out there,
42:06 to be honest, but this is really lovely, Tom.
42:10 It was me.
42:11 But I'm fine.
42:13 I can't really remember what I said,
42:14 because it was in the moment.
42:17 I was horrible, I think.
42:19 I just keep getting really confused.
42:22 Like I can't read you, but maybe I just can't read anyone.
42:27 Do you want me to call?
42:28 God, no.
42:31 It's just my wrist from the fall.
42:33 You didn't fall.
42:34 I postured you.
42:35 Yeah, well, I probably had it coming.
42:37 Never say that, Tom.
42:39 No one deserves that.
42:41 Yeah, but I'm not easy.
42:42 And she puts up with so much.
42:45 You know, me and Piper will be fine if you
42:47 want to go home for a bit.
42:49 That's like giving up.
42:51 Told you.
42:52 I know.
42:53 She's amazing.
42:56 So I've started the process of getting help with Liam.
43:00 I think you should do the same.
43:03 Will you do that?
43:05 Do it for yourself if you're not going to do it for me.
43:09 Will you please get help too, Bill?
43:14 [panting]
43:17 [music playing]
43:20 (upbeat music)
