00:22Son, please just talk to the police.
00:26If it was infidential, you wouldn't be in this mess.
00:29You need to tell the truth.
00:31Oh, yeah? Like you do. 100% honest, are you?
00:34I don't want Denzel to get away with this.
00:37Dad...
00:39..he's my best mate.
00:41And you've just shot him to the police.
00:43I don't even know if I can speak to him again.
00:46So what you've done is made this even worse.
00:51Police come away, I ain't saying nothing.
00:55He ain't answering his phone.
00:57It ain't been to school. No-one's seen him on the square.
01:01He's acting so shifty and guilty.
01:04He must be on the menu.
01:06You don't think he has collapsed too, do you?
01:08I don't know. Why should Denz be the lucky one?
01:11Oi! Is that him?
01:13Denz!
01:17Oi! What do you think you're doing?
01:19You can't just come in here!
01:21We've arrested Denzel on suspicion of supplying Class C
01:24controlled substances to a minor
01:26and under section 18 of the Police and Evidence Act 1984,
01:29we have a right to search this property.
01:31No, no, no. Denzel ain't no drug dealer.
01:33Where is he? Is he all right?
01:35He's been taken to the police station.
01:37This must be a joke.
01:39You lot should be ashamed of yourselves.
01:41All this heavy-handedness for a schoolboy.
01:44And when it comes to the big stuff, you lot just drag it out for weeks.
01:47I'm telling you this now, you've got the wrong boy.
01:50Go.
01:57I understand.
02:00I really do.
02:04But you could end up in prison.
02:07I know.
02:09But at least this might reopen the case
02:11and then Myra and her husband finally get their day in court.
02:15Well, he's already locked up.
02:17You could end up sitting in a cell next to him.
02:20I mean, who's that going to help?
02:23Who's that going to help?
02:26Me. Them.
02:28If it's justice, right?
02:30Is it?
02:32I'm not sure that it is.
02:34I mean, it's not going to make them feel any better about what happened.
02:37Nothing changes for Aaron.
02:40Everything changes for you.
02:42And for them,
02:44well, their lives have still been destroyed by a racist thug.
02:47And we need you.
02:50That's the only thing.
02:52All of us.
02:54Me especially.
02:56And I need you to keep me strong.
02:58Selfish.
03:00I know.
03:03But if you do this,
03:06Aaron will have destroyed our family as well as theirs.
03:13You might think you're helping Denzel out.
03:16Relying to the police.
03:18Obstructing their inquiries.
03:21You could end up in as much trouble as him.
03:24So come on.
03:27You tell your Dada Ji.
03:32Tell me how this all started.
03:36All right.
03:38Yeah, I'll tell you the truth.
03:43If you tell everyone that you've been kissing my mum,
03:47OK.
03:48I'll sort it out.
03:53Your mother and I...
03:55I don't actually want to hear it, Dada.
03:58But if you don't get out of my face
04:00and drop all this stuff about coming clean,
04:03I'm going to tell everyone what you did.
04:10You need to get in that room.
04:12You need to get in that room and nip it in the bud right now.
04:15You know what you need to do?
04:16You need to tell them, not my son.
04:18Not today, not today or any other day.
04:20That's what you need to say.
04:21Because trust me, no matter how sorry he is,
04:24if they get half the chance, they're going to throw the book at him.
04:27Oh, dear, what's your name?
04:29What's happening with Denzel?
04:31Is he all right?
04:32Has he seen a doctor?
04:33Yeah, he's been seen by the custody nurse.
04:35Hear what? I've got two words for you, yeah?
04:37Appropriate adult.
04:38I know my rights.
04:39Kid's under 16.
04:40He needs an adult in that room with him right now.
04:43He's requested one.
04:45Right?
04:48How's he doing?
05:00Listen, um, you don't have to keep this up here forever, you know?
05:05I'm sure we can find a nice spot for it somewhere.
05:08And her birthday seems like the right time to move it, don't you think?
05:12You remembered.
05:14See, I didn't know what to say, what to do.
05:17I mean, would you celebrate?
05:19Of course. We'll celebrate it.
05:22And the drinks are on the house, OK?
05:25I see Dad's not wasting any time.
05:29Now, honestly, me and my ex, we can't even be in the same room together,
05:33let alone run a business.
05:35Treated you that bad, did she?
05:37No, the opposite.
05:39I loved her to death.
05:41But she was toxic for me.
05:44I'm telling you, we were just proper rowers that were going for hours.
05:49But what can I say?
05:51I do like a woman with a bit of fire in her, Billy.
05:54Guilty as charged.
05:58It was just like these influencers online.
06:01They did fitness stuff to help with gains and that.
06:05They never said it was illegal or nothing.
06:08So someone on social media told you where to get it?
06:11It was only for personal use, wasn't it, mate?
06:13If you let me ask the questions. Sorry.
06:15And you gave these steroids to the vendor?
06:17Yeah, but I didn't make any profit.
06:19Have you given them to anyone else?
06:21No.
06:22Dins really wants to help with the investigation, don't you, mate?
06:24Yeah, yeah, I do. I can show you the links I used and the DMs I got.
06:28These guys were making out that everyone was using them.
06:30It was totally safe.
06:32I'm not getting some awesome...
06:34Sorry.
06:38I might run into prison.
06:51When the kids are out of here, we should think about the future.
06:55You know, we do have two kids together.
06:58The stronger we are, the safer and happier they'll be.
07:01Yeah?
07:04Any luck getting through to him?
07:06Don't trust police, innit?
07:08I think I need to get back to the restaurant.
07:10OK, look, I won't be long, yeah?
07:13Call me if there's any changes.
07:16Promise?
07:33Hey.
07:36I know I agreed to be patient,
07:39but you should know...
07:41the vendor saw us kissing.
07:45I don't want to lie to the vendor, not when he's in hospital bed.
07:48And...
07:50I don't want to be in control of the moment when Sookie finds out.
07:54No. Look, I just need to focus on my family.
07:59That's what the whole deal was about.
08:02Securing a future for your family.
08:04I think I made a mistake.
08:06I need to focus on being a mum.
08:09A piece of trash like you...
08:13isn't capable of that.
08:16You offered to sleep with your kid's granddad for money.
08:21Tried cheating them out of their inheritance
08:24by seducing a dying old man.
08:27So I'm warning you.
08:29What?
08:31Don't try and blackmail me into bed.
08:34Do you realise how sad and desperate that makes you?
08:38Deal's off. No amount of money's worth it.
08:44As if you were ever going to get it.
08:49You are a pathetic excuse of a man.
08:53And you're going to spend the rest of your days miserable and alone.
08:57And quite frankly, you deserve it.
09:01Thank you.
09:07Made your part in shaping history.
09:09What?
09:11The election. You voted.
09:13Oh. Was that today?
09:15What if you'd been living under a rock?
09:17No, I just had a lot on.
09:19Anyway, it's only one vote. What difference does it make?
09:21What difference does it make? Do you know what?
09:23If everyone thought like that... OK, OK.
09:25I get it. I'll do it.
09:27People like us, we've got to stick together.
09:30People like... I'm not sure we voted for the same people.
09:33Whatever. Just make sure you vote, all right?
09:44He's been released while they talk about a juvenile caution.
09:49If everything works out and the caution's approved,
09:52he won't face any more charges.
09:57Silly boy.
09:59Come here.
10:02Oh.
10:15You all right, love?
10:17Thank you.
10:19Kathy.
10:21You went for Rocky recently. How's he doing?
10:24Oh, well, I had a call a while back.
10:27He puts on a brave face, but, well, let's face it,
10:30prison ain't no picnic, is it?
10:32It's not.
10:34Why do you ask?
10:36I just think about my Aaron sometimes, that's all.
10:39Yeah, well, there's the difference there, Harvey, innit?
10:41You know, Rocky's just a normal bloke who's made some really bad decisions,
10:45but scumbags like Aaron, that's who prison was made for.
10:49Look, I'm sorry.
10:51I know that's not what you want to hear, but...
10:54It's the truth.
10:56You all right?
11:04Hey.
11:06Welcome home, son.
11:08I've heard so far about you, what's your name, what's your...?
11:11Well, they had nothing on him, isn't it?
11:13Look, I'm storming in here like he's Pablo Escobar.
11:15Can we stop?!
11:18You can all celebrate if you want,
11:21and yet I'm glad to hear my son's not a drug dealer.
11:24He's not stupid enough for that.
11:26But he is stupid enough to pump his body full of steroids.
11:30No, I'm not listening to this.
11:32The police took them, I'm not doing it anymore, so it's not a problem.
11:35It is a problem!
11:37We're going to hospital to get you checked out by a doctor.
11:40Cos what you did was reckless and irresponsible.
11:43And you think I'm taking some advice from beta male?
11:46Excuse me?
11:48You ain't never stepped in the gym your whole life,
11:50and now you're trying to tell me?
11:52Show your father some respect.
11:54Respect? Respect?
11:56No, no, I respect real men.
11:58And he is not one of them.
12:00Men like Zak, yeah?
12:02Yeah, yeah, why not? Look out on the square.
12:04Do you see him on the square in a clown outfit?
12:06Enough!
12:08Making a fool of himself!
12:10You're weak, you're lazy, and you're stupid.
12:15Why do you all think I go to the gym?
12:18Hmm? Why?
12:20Cos I don't want to end up like no loser like him.
12:24Go to your room.
12:26There, look at you. Go to your room.
12:30Do you know what the truth is?
12:33I'm embarrassed to have you as a dad.
12:38Denzel!
12:47I hear you, OK?
12:50You're right. Me falling on my sword is not going to help anyone.
12:55But I feel like I need to do something,
12:57and, you know, sacrificing a bit of cash each month to help out,
13:00that seems like a small price to pay.
13:03We can tighten our belts and...
13:05Not the money, Harvey. To hell with the money.
13:08But this Maya is obviously unstable, and I know why,
13:13and I'm not judging her,
13:15but you will always be a reminder of what happened.
13:18You think? Yes.
13:20A permanent link to a horrible chapter in her life.
13:25For her sake and yours,
13:28I think you should cut all ties and walk away.
13:34Just walk away, Harvey.
13:49Hey, Debbie, are you OK?
13:52Sorry. I'm fine.
13:54No, you're not. Come on, let's borrow.
13:56All right, I'll take you home.
13:58See if I can make it.
14:00OK, all right, OK. Look, this way, then.
14:05I'm sorry, son.
14:08It's not how I wanted things to be.
14:12I thought I'd have him visit the hospital a couple of weeks.
14:15I thought I'd have him visit the hospital a couple of weeks.
14:18Stupid old fool.
14:22What are you talking about?
14:24I feel like I've let everyone down, son.
14:28She...
14:30She played me.
14:32She played me.
14:34Who played you?
14:37Priya.
14:39What's she done, Dad?
14:42Dad, what's she...?
14:44Priya and I...
14:48We slept together.
14:59Oh, Howie, Howie.
15:04Beta male.
15:07Listen, don't be letting that get into your head, OK?
15:11It's just the algorithms.
15:13They're bombarded on all of their socials, so...
15:16And listen, he's a kid.
15:18He doesn't even know what it is to be a man.
15:21He's got a pretty long list.
15:23OK, so you're not six foot five and a stack, so what?
15:27It doesn't make you less of a man in my eyes.
15:29And I should know.
15:31I've had my fair share, and let me tell you,
15:33this rock-hard muscle is only skin deep.
15:36Do you have to?
15:38I'm talking about emotional strength.
15:43Psychological strength.
15:45Those are the bits that make you a proper man.
15:57OK, so you can't lift weights, but you know what you can lift?
16:02My soul.
16:05My spirit.
16:08Because you, Howard Danes...
16:13..you're my work.
16:15My absolute work.
16:19Denzel is not in Israel.
16:24What?!
16:39They let you out, then?
16:41I swear, I didn't grasp. I didn't say nothing.
16:44Yeah, it's all right, man. I know it was your dad.
16:52Don't go upsetting him.
17:00Don't be hard on your dad, bro.
17:04Just looking out for you, innit?
17:06I told the police everything.
17:10Don't lie on me.
17:13How are you feeling?
17:16Pretty rough.
17:20Stupid one.
17:23I don't want to lie no more, ever.
17:26I've already apologised to Amy.
17:30She never tried to get it on with me.
17:33I tried to kiss her, which is stupid.
17:38She knocked me back and I guess I was jealous, angry and mad and all.
17:46Yeah, I know I missed it all out.
17:49Mate, I am so sorry.
17:53I just wanted the way it was.
17:56All of us friends, innit?
17:59Yeah.
18:01Yeah.
18:04It's cool, man.
18:08I haven't been the mate, bro.
18:12I drove you to this and I know I did.
18:17So sorry, innit, man?
18:25Dad wants me home.
18:28Just looking out for you, ain't he?
18:36When?
18:38When was this?
18:41She's been working me for weeks, man.
18:45She's been teasing me, tempting me.
18:51Until it finally happened yesterday.
18:54While poor Devinder was collapsing.
18:58The last thing that poor boy saw through the window
19:02was the two of us kissing.
19:09You... You and Priya are as shocked as you are.
19:17It's just...
19:19In that moment...
19:21In that moment...
19:24It just felt like the most natural, beautiful thing in the world.
19:29And then it became clear.
19:31This can happen again, she said.
19:35But I'll need something back in return.
19:38Money.
19:43Oh, she wanted everything.
19:45The businesses, properties all signed over in her name.
19:51And when I resisted,
19:53that's when she threatened to tell everybody what had happened.
19:56Oh, she... She played me, man.
19:59She... She played me like the old fool that I am.
20:05And the only thing that I know for sure
20:07is that woman cannot be trusted.
20:11She doesn't care about you,
20:13the kids, any sort of family.
20:17The only thing that she cares about...
20:20is herself.
20:39Would you like another one?
20:41No. You said you'd get me one drink to worm me around, that was the deal.
20:45But did I succeed?
20:47Well, I'm not as angry as I was, but...
20:50if you ever have another late-night drinking session in my gym,
20:54we'll be having worse.
20:57Promises, promises.
20:59Well, I don't quite understand how you irritated your ex-wife so much.
21:05Good night.
21:16Messing with Phil's ex is not a smart move.
21:20What are you talking about?
21:22It's ancient history, ain't it?
21:24Listen, you're playing with fire.
21:26And I told you to keep him on side.
21:29I am. But you know me, Dad.
21:32I've got a soft spot for bottled blunts.
21:35Yeah, well, don't you go causing us any trouble.
21:38Trouble? Really?
21:41I'm not the one keeping secrets from the family, am I?
21:44And I don't know what it is you're trying to cover up.
21:47But I'll be worried less about me and more about yourself.
21:59Ah, that looks so lovely up there, mate.
22:02Nice, eh?
22:04Let's have another drink for Lola, eh?
22:07Hiya.
22:09Thank you, thank you so much for coming.
22:12Right, you need to stop calling me.
22:14Do you understand?
22:16It's upsetting Abdul.
22:18I understand, I just...
22:20I just need you, and I'm devastated.
22:23I mean, I'm sorry, I am, for everything.
22:26It's OK.
22:31There's stuff that I needed to say to you, but...
22:34You're not your son, I do know that.
22:37Look, it...
22:39This doesn't make up for anything, but...
22:42Take it, and please...
22:45If it pays a bill, it clears up some doubt.
22:50Look, Tegan, it doesn't mean you forgive me.
22:52I don't understand about that.
22:54Think of what you could do with it.
22:58And there'll be more next month.
23:00Every month, until you've got it.
23:02And what's Jean going to make of this?
23:06I'll explain the situation, but...
23:09Yeah, no, she's on board.
23:11I mean, she's totally on board, so...
23:15You'll want to help.
23:23Did you see that cardboard box thingy that they wanted him to wear?
23:26Can't lie, it's so...
23:28Did you see that cardboard box thingy that they wanted him to wear?
23:31Can't lie, it's so embarrassing.
23:33I will never go to a hospital.
23:35Oh, yeah? What if Davinda needs one of your kidneys?
23:38No, cos that's not a thing.
23:40Wait, is that a thing?
23:42Let's hope not.
23:44Breathe. Yeah.
23:46It's going to be all right.
23:52Whose are those?
23:54Look who it is.
23:57The OG gold digger herself.
24:00What do you call me?
24:02Funny. Give us a minute.
24:04I'm not going anywhere.
24:06What is this?
24:08I called you a gold digger.
24:10And that's even about right, doesn't it?
24:13For someone who's so keen to get her hands on my dad's inheritance...
24:18..that she slept with him.
24:20What?
24:22But you did what?
24:26DOOR SLAMS SHUT
24:37Don't want to hear anything.
24:39I'm not weak, you know.
24:41Yeah, well...
24:43I'm not!
24:47I'm not.
24:50If you want to know what a real man is...
24:53..it's me.
24:57I'm it.
25:02If you want to know how strong I am...
25:08..I'll show you.
25:13Come here.
25:16Come here.
25:20Come here.
25:27What are you doing?
25:29I love you.
25:37Do you feel that love?
25:42Do you feel how strong it is?
25:44Yeah.
25:48You're a stupid boy.
25:53But you ain't in this alone.
25:55You understand?
25:58You ain't in this alone.
26:02Will you listen to me, please?
26:04Ravi, it never happened. He's making it all up in his head.
26:07Davinder saw us kissing.
26:09Are you serious? OK.
26:11OK, but it was a stupid kiss.
26:13It didn't lead to anything else.
26:15It led to him running away.
26:17It led to him collapsing on his own in the street.
26:19That ain't my fault. You slept with my dad for money!
26:21I didn't! Why would I lie?
26:23It's all you ever do. I made him an offer.
26:25OK? Yes.
26:27And so what? Is that really so bad?
26:29I've got nothing. I was just trying to secure a future for me and my kids.
26:33No, no, don't bring me into this.
26:35That's my grandad you were messing with, Mum.
26:37I didn't even go through with it. Our son's in hospital.
26:40Nothing happened.
26:42You know, us coming together,
26:44fighting for our child...
26:48..I actually started to feel something for you.
26:53And all the time you were trying to scam a dying man.
26:56No! You used me.
26:58Oh, drop dead! Mum!
27:00Acting all innocent!
27:02You wanted me on your arm to make Sookie jealous.
27:05How could you say that? That's it, I'm done.
27:08You can't kick me out. This is Sookie's house.
27:10Kick you out?
27:12Oh, the bags?
27:15No, no, no, they're not for you.
27:17They're for Avani.
27:20You think I'm going to let my daughter stay in the house with you?
27:23No chance.
27:25You're a terrible mum.
27:28You coming, baby?
27:30She ain't going anywhere.
27:32Well, why don't we ask Avani what she wants?
27:34Great idea. Avani, would you like to come and live with me and your brother?
27:38Or stay with the woman who seduced your dying grandfather
27:41to get her hands on his money?
27:43Good decision.
27:48I'm sorry, I'm just well out of order.
27:51Please don't leave me.
27:53No.
27:55Please.
