00:00What's he doing here?
00:13Ask your dad.
00:14I'm asking you.
00:15I didn't have any choice, alright? He'd had a skinful.
00:20So you invite them over for a sleepover?
00:22He was drunk. And he was upset. I didn't know what else to do.
00:25Have you gone absolutely mental?
00:26Morning.
00:27Is it?
00:28Yes, it is.
00:29I've just come and got the last of my stuff.
00:41Freshly laundered and neatly folded.
00:43Thanks.
00:44Maybe we could go and get a coffee?
00:49I'm busy. I've stuck the kettle on here. I've no time.
00:52Oh, Nicky, please. There's some things I really want to talk to you about.
00:54It wouldn't hurt to spare a few minutes for your mum.
00:57If there's one thing I've learned, it's to make time for family.
01:02The opportunity might not always be there.
01:06Yeah, I, um...
01:09I suppose I could spare a few minutes.
01:11Proper action, man. You, eh?
01:13Shouldn't you be doing a few of those?
01:17And get yourself some guns?
01:19It's strange, wasn't you?
01:22Always scurrying around, hoping nobody notices you.
01:25Staff always in and out of here.
01:28Something weird about you.
01:31And you're not wrecking action, man, eh?
01:33Bit sus, this one.
01:39Well, the conversation's riveting in here, eh?
01:41Did you want something?
01:42Yeah, just chatting.
01:44Yeah.
01:46Well, I don't think anyone's interested.
01:48Not me, anyway.
01:50Is that a lie?
01:53Off you pop, then.
01:55What's the story with him, anyway?
01:57I won't tell you again.
02:11They've confirmed she had a heart attack.
02:13Poor Laurel.
02:14She had an angioplasty to widen the artery.
02:16Went well, apparently.
02:17Good to hear. You been to visit?
02:19I've got nobody to cover here,
02:20but I'm gonna go down as soon as we close up.
02:23Give her all love, won't you?
02:25You take it for granted, your health,
02:26and then something like this comes out of the blue.
02:28No, no, the most.
02:30We're not getting any younger, that's for sure.
02:32Speak for yourself.
02:33No, I mean, it just...
02:35It just makes you think, that's all.
02:41Look, it wasn't my idea to bring Charles back to ours.
02:46Nobody said it was.
02:47Nicky, please, can we not just try and put all this behind us?
02:51Just like that?
02:53You could have killed Ethan.
02:54I didn't, though.
02:55He died of natural causes.
02:57So that makes it OK.
03:01I was angry.
03:03But only because of how much I love you.
03:06And because of how close I nearly came to losing you
03:08because of Ethan.
03:11It was stupid, I know.
03:12And no, that doesn't make it OK.
03:15But our family shouldn't be torn apart
03:17because of something I did.
03:18Because I love you so much.
03:20Nicky, please come home.
03:23I'm happy where I am.
03:26I'm enjoying spending more time with Sonny.
03:29Andy needs me there at the minute while Laura's in hospital.
03:34Well, it doesn't have to be right away.
03:37And I promise I won't intervene
03:39if you want to knock your dad into shape again.
03:41I might even weigh him myself.
03:44How about you and Sonny come round for dinner sometime
03:46as a starting point?
03:48Maybe.
03:49In fact, why don't we ask him to join us now?
03:51We could take his mind off it.
03:53You know how much he loves me.
03:55If you say so.
03:56Give him a call.
03:59Last time I woke up on someone's sofa,
04:01I was barely out of my teens.
04:04A bit too old for this.
04:06The worst place he's got to wake up in.
04:08Not sure he's become any of a vicar, though.
04:11Like you channelling your mum now.
04:13Hold on, Woody.
04:15Seeker's safe with me.
04:17Thanks.
04:19And thanks for last night.
04:22For everything, really.
04:25Your kindness has helped a lot.
04:27And Ruby's.
04:29I'm just glad that we've been able to move on
04:32after Ethan and Nicky's crash.
04:34Yeah, me too.
04:36Oh.
04:37I'm sorry.
04:38No, it's fine.
04:39No, it really isn't.
04:40Relax, mate.
04:41That rug's on its way out anyway.
04:43Let me clean it.
04:44No, don't worry about it.
04:45I insist.
05:05Don't mean to be rude, mate,
05:07but I've got to shoot off soon.
05:08I've got a meeting in Hotton.
05:10Ruby needs a car later,
05:11so I'm off to book a taxi.
05:13I'll give you a lift.
05:14No, no, it's fine.
05:15I can sort myself out.
05:16You don't need to do that.
05:17It's the least I could do.
05:19Well,
05:20I'm not sure you're in a fit state to drive, are you?
05:22I've been asleep for hours.
05:24And, er,
05:25how are you for last night?
05:27And this?
05:28I said don't worry about that.
05:29Seriously?
05:32Let me repay the favour.
05:37So what happened between you two?
05:39Before she fell?
05:42Nothing.
05:44Well, something was up yesterday.
05:46I could tell.
05:49We argued, all right?
05:50It was nothing.
05:51Just a little disagreement.
05:55Oh.
05:56There she is.
05:59Hey.
06:00How are you feeling?
06:01OK.
06:04I'm just a bit sore.
06:06Yeah, you need to rest up.
06:08Best excuse ever to be waiting on hand and foot, right?
06:11And I'm more than happy to oblige.
06:13Where are the kids?
06:14Sonny got them off to school.
06:16Oh.
06:17He messaged earlier.
06:18Everyone's fine.
06:19Look, you need to just think about yourself.
06:21Nicola's been texting me non-stop.
06:23The whole village is asking after you.
06:26That's lovely.
06:28No, you need to take it easy, Laurel.
06:32Yeah, I will.
06:33And I'll be at your beck and call.
06:35Anything you need,
06:38I'm there.
06:39And I mean anything.
06:41I'm going to get you better.
06:43And get you home.
06:49Where have you been?
06:50I've been worried sick.
06:51Had your phone stopped working?
06:53Oh, I'm sorry.
06:54I should have let you know I wasn't coming home.
06:56Is everything all right?
06:57Yeah, absolutely fine.
06:58Just something's come up.
07:00Something more important than a parishioner collapsing in your church yesterday?
07:03You should be at the hospital visiting.
07:05You're right.
07:06I've just got to deal with this first.
07:07What?
07:08I won't be long!
07:13Look at this.
07:14My two favourite boys.
07:17I'm hoping you might help me persuade this one to be a little less grumpy with me.
07:20I'll do my best.
07:23Are you okay?
07:24I know you've got a lot going on.
07:26Yeah, I just feel like I should be doing more
07:28than sitting around drinking coffee.
07:30Well, unless you've become a cardiac consultant overnight,
07:32it sounds like you're doing everything you can.
07:34I quite like the idea of you in surgical scrubs.
07:38I'm sure Jay appreciates everything you're doing for him.
07:41I was just saying, before you arrived, to Nicky,
07:43how nothing should come before family.
07:47I won't argue with that.
07:49This just feels like a chance to show Jay
07:51how much it means to me that we're brothers.
07:54I really want to be there for him.
07:55I'm sure he knows that already.
07:58Now,
07:59how about you both come in?
08:01Now,
08:03how about you both come round for dinner tonight?
08:05I might have the kids.
08:06Bring them.
08:07And Jay, if he's back from the hospital, the more the merrier.
08:11Please, Nicky.
08:13He'll be there.
08:20This song came out
08:22after Ethan was born.
08:25I see.
08:27Are we taking a shortcut coming this way?
08:31I just need a minute.
08:47Are you alright?
08:48A bit overwhelmed.
08:50You mean the song?
08:52Listen, I can make my own way into Horton.
08:55Give you a bit of space, you know.
08:57I'd prefer if you stayed.
08:59Yeah, of course.
09:01It's no problem.
09:03I'm sorry, Caleb.
09:06I shouldn't be putting all this on you, man.
09:15There you go.
09:19It's not the end of the world, you know.
09:22That's easy for you to say.
09:23You're not the beauticians that have completed what?
09:25There are two. Two appointments of the entire day.
09:27I've had to send Amelia home.
09:29I can't cope with the endless small talk.
09:32Things will pick up. They always do.
09:34I'm glad you're so confident.
09:35I'm always confident in you.
09:38Right, why don't I cheer you up by taking you to the cafe for something to eat later?
09:42I suppose.
09:43You can have whatever you want.
09:44Just don't say I'm not good to you.
09:47You're always good to me.
09:49I know I'm the luckiest woman alive.
09:52Maybe we can do a little bit of wedding planning.
09:56There's no rush for that, is there?
09:58Is there not?
09:59We haven't even set a date.
10:00Well, exactly, we can do that.
10:01Okay.
10:03You don't seem very excited.
10:04Of course I'm excited.
10:05But?
10:06But there's no buts, Paddy.
10:07Alright, then.
10:08Well, let's meet later and do a little bit of wedding planning, then.
10:14He was such a good boy.
10:17I know he wasn't perfect with that stuff with Nicky.
10:19No.
10:21That's all in the past now.
10:22But he had morals and principles.
10:25Even when he was a kid.
10:26I was so proud when he got accepted into law school.
10:28Yeah.
10:30Yeah, I bet you were.
10:32And now he's gone.
10:35And I just keep trying to make sense of it.
10:37Even though I can't.
10:38I think you need to focus on the good memories.
10:43Easy as that.
10:44No.
10:45No, of course not.
10:48I reckon it'll get easier given time.
10:51I'm not so sure about that.
10:52I just can't believe
10:54that they dropped Pete and ran an investigation like that.
10:57Have you spoken to Claude yet about any of this?
11:00My mum's great.
11:04But it feels easier talking to you.
11:07She's grieving herself.
11:09But it feels easier talking to you.
11:12She's grieving herself.
11:38I'm sorry.
11:40Can we not do this now?
11:41Because I'm just trying to get my head around the fact
11:43that I nearly died yesterday.
11:47It's my fault.
11:49That's all I wanted to say.
11:53I blame myself
11:54for getting you all wound up like that.
11:56I'm sorry.
11:58I'm sorry.
12:00I'm sorry.
12:02I'm sorry.
12:04I'm sorry.
12:06I'm sorry.
12:08I'm sorry.
12:10I really am sorry.
12:12I'll make it up to you.
12:13I promise.
12:15Are you going to make it up to Sonny?
12:21You haven't told him, have you?
12:25I haven't had a chance.
12:27Haven't had the chance
12:28or haven't got the courage?
12:30When was I supposed to tell him
12:31with all this going on?
12:33You had lots of opportunities before.
12:35I'll tell him.
12:36I promise.
12:38Well, you said that yesterday
12:39and I'm starting to think that
12:42you know, your promises
12:43just don't really mean anything, do they?
12:46I'll do it, I swear.
12:47When?
12:49As soon as I get a chance.
12:51Today.
12:53Stop wasting time.
12:56Find Sonny J
12:57and tell him the truth.
13:06If you could, Brenda
13:07I really need to get down to the hospital.
13:09Try and be back a bit sooner, please.
13:11Thanks.
13:17What's the matter?
13:18Sorry?
13:20Nothing.
13:21You just seem to be a bit
13:22evasive about
13:23setting a date for the wedding.
13:25I wasn't being evasive.
13:27No.
13:29You were hardly enthusiastic either,
13:30though, were you?
13:31You just took me by surprise.
13:32That's all.
13:33Right.
13:34But we do have to set a date
13:36for the wedding.
13:37Yes, I know.
13:38We're not in any bad for us, though, are we?
13:40No.
13:41Well, no.
13:43Andie
13:46you do still want to get married, don't you?
13:48Are you crazy?
13:49Of course I do.
13:50I want nothing more
13:51in the whole wide world
13:52but I just want to enjoy
13:53being engaged for a bit, you know?
13:56Be present.
13:57Stay in the moment.
14:00Oh, look at you two lovebirds
14:02sneaking out for a romantic rendezvous.
14:05Join us if you want.
14:06What? Oh, no, no.
14:07I wouldn't dream of interrupting.
14:08Actually, I've just come for some
14:09take-outs.
14:10Me and Ron are going for a walk.
14:11You know,
14:12make the most of being child-free.
14:14Going for a walk?
14:15Hardly making the most
14:16of being child-free.
14:17Each to their own.
14:18To their house.
14:20She's right, though,
14:21wouldn't she?
14:22Should you not be both
14:23letting your hair down
14:24being butt-loose and fancy-free?
14:26Why don't we do something together?
14:27Something couple-y.
14:29Sounds
14:30sounds a bit wrong, that.
14:32I just mean
14:33play some games.
14:34Have a few drinks.
14:35It'd be great.
14:36It's been ages since
14:37we've done something together.
14:38Yeah, because it ended
14:39really well last time,
14:40didn't it?
14:41What?
14:42Oh,
14:43you mean the dinner party
14:44of doom.
14:45Well, then,
14:46let's rectify that.
14:47Come round two hours later.
14:48About six-ish.
14:49Yeah, alright.
14:50Why not?
14:51Yeah, thanks.
14:58Listen,
14:59now, yeah,
15:00I really need to start
15:01getting back.
15:02I think you need to speak
15:03to someone.
15:04Like a professional,
15:05maybe.
15:06Talk all this stuff
15:07through properly.
15:08The only person
15:09I really need to talk to
15:10right now is you.
15:15I need to know
15:16what happened the day
15:17Ethan got knocked down.
15:18Er,
15:19well,
15:20I'm not following you.
15:21You know what
15:22I'm talking about.
15:24Look,
15:25you're upset.
15:26Yeah, and you're grieving.
15:27And you had quite
15:28a bit to drink last night.
15:29Don't patronise me, man.
15:30Nobody's
15:31patronising anybody.
15:34I'm going.
15:36You're not going nowhere.
15:37I'm not doing you any favours,
15:38humouring this behaviour.
15:39You need to get some
15:40proper help.
15:41Whoa!
15:43Listen,
15:44Charles,
15:45you've just lost
15:46your son.
15:47I'd be all over
15:48the place as well feeling
15:49exactly the same as you are.
15:50I'm not messing around.
15:51Just take it easy,
15:52alright?
15:54An invoice
15:55from the garage.
15:57I found it
15:58in your kitchen.
16:00Dated the day
16:01after Ethan
16:02was run over.
16:09Where have you been?
16:12Nowhere.
16:13You see,
16:14the answer to that
16:15should have been
16:16none of your business.
16:19Where have you been, then?
16:20None of your business.
16:22That's better.
16:24Just say it like
16:25you mean it next time.
16:28So,
16:29some kind of medication?
16:32That's a real
16:33question, by the way.
16:37Look, you don't have to
16:38answer that if you
16:39don't want to.
16:40But a little bit of
16:41advice.
16:43That lad
16:44earlier,
16:45he was right.
16:46People keep
16:47asking questions
16:48if you're disappearing
16:49with the staff
16:50all the time.
16:51Now,
16:52you can tell them to
16:53butt out if you want,
16:54but if you're on
16:55methadone or
16:56something,
16:57it'd be easier
16:58if you just come out
16:59with it.
17:02It's not that simple.
17:03Yeah, well,
17:04that's up to you.
17:06I'm only trying
17:07to help you.
17:19Oh, Sonny.
17:20Hey.
17:21Thought I'd squeeze
17:22a quick visit in
17:23before I pick
17:24the kids up from school.
17:25Oh, that's really
17:26thoughtful of you.
17:27Thank you so much
17:28for helping out.
17:29Oh, of course.
17:30We're family.
17:31Times like this,
17:32everyone's got to
17:33pull together.
17:34I'm guessing
17:35you haven't spoken to Jay.
17:36About what?
17:39Is everything OK?
17:42So it turns out
17:43that a leper doesn't
17:44really ever change
17:45his spots.
17:47I was going to tell him.
17:48No, you weren't.
17:49Tell me what?
17:50I'm sorry,
17:51Sonny.
17:52About what?
17:53Tell him.
17:54Tell him now.
17:55Oh, you are so
17:56spineless and weak
17:57that I'll do it.
18:01I'm really sorry, Sonny,
18:02to have to tell you this,
18:03but I've only just
18:04found this out
18:05myself recently,
18:06but
18:08turns out
18:10Jay lied.
18:14Your dad did kill Rishi.
18:18I'm sorry,
18:19I tried to...
18:20No.
18:21And then Jay
18:22used the information
18:23to blackmail him
18:25into leaving
18:26and then he made him
18:27sign over
18:28all of his shares
18:29in hot.
18:31People are going to
18:32start asking questions
18:34about why the guards
18:35come round all the time.
18:37They already are.
18:44Look,
18:47what is it
18:48you're hiding, anyway?
18:50Nothing.
18:53Suit yourself.
18:55Anyway,
18:56I already told you.
18:59None of your business.
19:06You're all right, you.
19:10I'm not trying to be difficult,
19:11it's just
19:13it's a bit personal.
19:15Listen,
19:17whatever it is
19:18will most likely
19:19come out anyway
19:21or people will come up
19:22with their own ideas
19:23and that could be worse.
19:28I cannot trust you.
19:32You, erm,
19:33you swear
19:34you won't tell anyone?
19:37Well, that depends
19:38what it is.
19:39But I ain't about
19:40to go round
19:41gossiping with that life,
19:42that's what you're asking.
19:45The thing is, erm,
19:50before I say this,
19:51erm,
19:52just,
19:53just know that I am
19:55a normal guy like you,
19:56yeah?
19:59But, erm,
20:02the medication
20:03that I take
20:05is, er,
20:06testosterone.
20:09I'm transgender.
20:22Wasn't you that
20:23knocked Ethan down?
20:24No.
20:25Then why did your car need
20:26body repairs the day after?
20:27I don't know what
20:28you think this is!
20:29You're lying!
20:30That's what it is!
20:32You're protecting
20:33someone else.
20:35You have no idea
20:36what this is like for me,
20:37do you?
20:38You're right,
20:39I don't.
20:40I just want the truth.
20:41None of this
20:42is helping anyone
20:43and none of this
20:44is gonna bring Ethan back.
20:45It's not about
20:46bringing him back,
20:47can't you see that?
20:48It's about knowing
20:49that I've done
20:50everything possible
20:51I can't move on
20:52until I know exactly
20:53what happened.
20:54This isn't a coincidence.
20:55The coroner said
20:56that the accident
20:57had nothing to do
20:58with Ethan's death anyway.
20:59He died of natural causes.
21:00I don't care
21:01what the coroner said!
21:04I know
21:06you were involved
21:07in the hit and run.
21:10So tell me
21:11what you know, Caleb.
21:14Or I'm going
21:15straight to the police.
21:19OK, you're right.
21:21It was me.
21:22I was the one
21:23who ran Ethan over.
21:38I'm sorry.
21:42I really am.
21:44Sorry?
21:47Is that the best you got?
21:48There's nothing
21:49that I can say or do
21:50that will change anything.
21:52I know that.
21:54You've been lying
21:55to me this whole time.
21:57Your wife
21:59brought us food
22:00and sympathy
22:01when Ethan died.
22:03And all this time
22:04she knew
22:05you were responsible.
22:06No, Ruby knows
22:07nothing about this.
22:08That was genuine sympathy.
22:10I slept under your roof
22:11last night, man.
22:13What else was I supposed
22:14to do?
22:15You was in a state.
22:16I couldn't kick you
22:17out on the street,
22:18could I?
22:20So you played
22:21the good Samaritan instead?
22:26I don't know
22:27what else to say.
22:31You can tell me
22:33exactly what happened.
22:39I was angry.
22:42Ethan had put Nicky
22:43in hospital.
22:45We didn't know
22:46if he was going to live or die.
22:48So I wanted to hurt him.
22:49So you hit him
22:52and you drove away.
22:54I wasn't thinking
22:55straight, was I?
22:57Just the same
22:58as you're not thinking
22:59straight now.
23:02You didn't care
23:03you mean.
23:05You didn't even
23:06get out of the car.
23:08The human being
23:09just lying there
23:11and you drove off.
23:14He could have
23:15been dead.
23:16Well, at least
23:17I wasn't blind drunk, eh?
23:18This isn't about
23:19Ethan.
23:21It's about you.
23:22In fact,
23:24save your breath.
23:26You can tell it
23:27to the police.
23:28Oh, no.
23:29No, I won't
23:30be saying anything
23:31to the police.
23:33What?
23:34Ethan's gone
23:36and it wasn't the
23:37accident that killed him.
23:38Everyone knows that.
23:40He's gone
23:41and nothing's
23:42bringing him back.
23:43Besides,
23:44I've got an alibi
23:45for that morning
23:47and it's a watertight one.
23:49You're going to lie
23:50to the police
23:52after you've
23:53just admitted it to me?
23:54I'd be angry as well
23:55if I was you.
23:56Trust me,
23:58this is more than anger.
23:59If the police
24:00come knocking at my door
24:01I would be denied
24:02that this conversation
24:03ever happened.
24:04The difference is
24:05I've got the evidence.
24:06Ethan didn't
24:07report it.
24:08He didn't even
24:09go to the hospital
24:10and my car
24:11being repaired
24:12it doesn't mean anything.
24:13You'd be wasting your time.
24:19Let me make this
24:20up to you,
24:21please.
24:24You and my dad
24:26you're the same.
24:29You poison
24:30everything you go near.
24:31Even Laurel
24:32is suffering now
24:33because of you.
24:34Sonny, listen.
24:35I'm done listening.
24:36Look, all of this
24:37with Laurel
24:38has made me realise
24:39how stupid I've been.
24:41Oh,
24:43OK?
24:44It's made me realise
24:45how much I need to change
24:46not with her
24:47with you
24:48with everything.
24:51I actually thought
24:52I had a brother
24:54a real family
24:55and a place to call home.
24:58You've been lying
24:59and cheating me
25:00for months
25:01meanwhile
25:02I've been running around
25:03looking after your kids
25:04and worrying about
25:05your sick wife
25:06who, by the way
25:07deserves so much
25:08better than you.
25:09I will never
25:11ever
25:12lie to you
25:13again.
25:14OK?
25:15What I did
25:16was out of order
25:17OK?
25:18But we are brothers
25:19and I want to make it right.
25:23We can find a way
25:24through this.
25:27No, we can't.
25:29I hope you enjoy
25:30your shares.
25:32I'm done with you.
25:36This isn't you, Charles.
25:37It's people like you
25:38who can do
25:39whatever you want
25:40ruin people's lives
25:41if you're lying
25:42and you're cheating
25:43and you think you can get away
25:44with the consequences.
25:45Just calm down, will you?
25:46You sat there and lied to me!
25:47How was I supposed to tell you?
25:49How many people
25:50have you had?
25:51Right, listen to me, Charles.
25:52Ethan dying
25:53had nothing to do
25:54with that car accident.
25:56It was
25:57it was an act of God
25:58you should know that
25:59better than anyone.
26:00Don't even think about
26:01bringing God into this.
26:02It's the truth
26:03you need to think about it.
26:04If this was one
26:05of your parishioners
26:06what would you be telling
26:07them right now?
26:08You'd be telling them
26:09that they need
26:10they need to accept it
26:12they need to accept it
26:13and try and move on.
26:15Come on.
26:16You know that you would.
26:27You know, sometimes
26:28things happen
26:29and it doesn't make any sense
26:32whether it's
26:34God or
26:35fate or karma
26:36whatever it is.
26:38Come on, Charles.
26:40Ethan wouldn't want you
26:41eating yourself up like this.
26:42Don't even say his name.
26:44His name's too good
26:45to come out of your mouth.
26:49He was my son.
26:50I'm so sorry
26:54but he's gone.
26:59Here.
27:01Have it.
27:06In the future
27:07you stay away from me
27:08and my family
27:09do you understand me?
27:13Maybe one day
27:14you'll find out
27:15what it's like to lose a child.
27:26You know
27:29it's mad to think
27:30that you used to be a woman.
27:32Well, I was
27:33I was always a man really
27:35deep down.
27:37And this test
27:39and this testosterone
27:40you need to take it every day.
27:43Yeah.
27:46It's just a gel
27:47there's no
27:48injections
27:49tablets
27:50or anything.
27:52Wow.
27:54And that's
27:55all you need?
27:57Yeah
27:58pretty much.
27:59So
28:01did you always think
28:02you were a man?
28:03I always knew
28:04yeah
28:05from
28:06when I was a kid.
28:07Sorry
28:08I wasn't trying to be smart.
28:10No, you're fine.
28:13It's not ideal though is it?
28:15Really being in a place like this
28:16I mean
28:17wouldn't you better be in a
28:18woman's prison?
28:19Would have been easier
28:20wouldn't it?
28:22To be honest
28:23I think this is the
28:24only time
28:25I don't want to be a man
28:28but I am one so
28:30where else am I going to go?
28:33Yeah well
28:34I reckon there's a few in here
28:35that had
28:36used that against you
28:37one way or another.
28:38Not you though.
28:40Listen mate
28:42I've been in these places
28:43enough times
28:45and the policy's the same
28:48mind my own business
28:50and get it done.
28:52Whatever people do
28:53say
28:54or are
28:55has nothing to do with me
28:57unless they make it
28:58something to do with me.
29:01You're right to be cagey though
29:04but
29:05as far as I'm concerned
29:07none of my business.
29:10Thanks.
29:12You just mind how you go though
29:14cos there's plenty of others
29:15that will take a different
29:16point of view.
29:18Is Laura okay?
29:19She's fine
29:20well apart from being
29:21married to one of the lowest
29:22most toxic human beings
29:23that ever walked this planet.
29:25My so called brother
29:26what's he done?
29:27Taken me for a complete
29:28nut and mug
29:29that's what.
29:31Darren I sat in that
29:32cafe earlier
29:33agreeing with your mum
29:34about how important
29:35family is
29:36when he's been lying
29:37and cheating me
29:38for months.
29:39Wait you're going to have
29:40to slow down
29:41what's happened?
29:47My dad killed
29:48Uncle Rish
29:49and Jay found out
29:51and instead of
29:52telling me
29:53or going to the police
29:55he blackmailed dad
29:56into handing over
29:57his shares in Hop
29:59before forcing him
30:00to leave.
30:02What?
30:03He didn't even come clean
30:04Laurel
30:05told me
30:08he's a snake
30:09and I never want
30:10to see him again.
30:13In fact
30:15I can't stay here
30:16for another minute
30:17I'm packing my things
30:18and I'm leaving.
30:19But where?
30:20I don't know
30:21I just need to get
30:22as far away
30:23from this place
30:24as possible.
30:27Will you
30:28come with me?
30:30Look Nikki
30:31It's just
30:32Look I know
30:34it's a spring on you
30:35it's just
30:36you were the one
30:37that's been wanting
30:38to leave for ages.
30:39I know that
30:40So what's changed?
30:41It's me mum
30:42she's really trying
30:43and I
30:44I can't just leave.
30:48The wanderer returns.
30:51It does indeed.
30:54Did you go and
30:55visit Laurel?
30:56Not yet
30:59I'll go tomorrow.
31:01Don't worry
31:02I'll stop asking
31:03That would be nice.
31:07You must be tired
31:08after all your drinking
31:09and gallivanting
31:10these past couple of days.
31:11A bit
31:14And hungry too?
31:16I could eat.
31:19How about
31:20I go and make you something?
31:23That would be lovely
31:24thanks.
31:25All of this
31:26will get easier
31:28maybe not completely
31:29better
31:30and maybe not
31:31any time soon
31:33but it will get easier
31:35you know that
31:36don't you?
31:38We'll get through
31:39this together.

32:33for the car

32:36that it was the day
32:37after Ethan got knocked over
32:38and he's put two and two together
32:40And?

34:17without worrying
34:18Yeah definitely

34:25I should have noticed

34:55the doctors have said

34:59this as a warning
35:00and slow down a bit
35:02If it happens again
35:04She's got us
35:05and we'll get her
35:06through this

37:46I'm not sure I want to now.
37:47Oh, come on, Rona.
37:48I didn't mean anything by it. Come on. Have a French martini.
37:52Are you sure about leaving?
38:06Absolutely. One hundred percent. I just...
38:10I don't want to feel like I'm dragging you away from your mum.
38:13No, you're right. We need to do this.
38:16I just want to speak to Charles before we go.
38:19I'll grab some snacks for the journey.
38:40Can I come in?
38:43It's OK with you, although either you didn't.
38:47I just wanted to talk.
38:49Before I go.
38:51You're leaving?
38:53Yeah.
38:56For good?
38:58That's the plan.
38:59To go where?
39:01I'm not sure yet.
39:03Travelling somewhere.
39:05Anywhere.
39:08I just wanted to say that I'm sorry.
39:11About everything.
39:13Did you know all along?
39:15About your dad?
39:21It's probably a wise move that you leave.
39:25I'd do the same thing if I was in your position.
39:30I am really sorry.
39:33About Ethan.
39:35And everything.
39:37You're his friend.
39:39I know how much he cared about you.
39:43I hope you can find some kind of happiness.
39:47I do too.
39:50Good luck.
39:57No wonder he had a heart attack.
40:00I think I just need a whole lifestyle change.
40:03A good start with a husband transplant.
40:07I just keep thinking about the kids.
40:09You've got to do what's right for yourself too, Laurel.
40:12I know, I know.
40:13But it's a big decision, isn't it?
40:17Why don't I give you two a little bit of space?
40:19No!
40:20No, I want you to stay.
40:22I want you to hear what I've got to say.
40:25Talk in front of Nicola.
40:30I...
40:33I tried to talk to Sonny.
40:36He wouldn't listen.
40:37Are you surprised by that?
40:39Laurel, I...
40:40Do you know what?
40:41Leave it. I'm not interested.
40:43I made a mistake.
40:44One in a very long line.
40:47I just want to put all of this behind us.
40:51Alright? Focus on helping you get through this.
40:55I will do whatever it takes to make it up to you.
40:58I've heard it a million times before.
41:00I mean it this time.
41:02We're done.
41:03No, no, no, Laurel.
41:06Look, one more chance.
41:09That's all I'm asking for.
41:12Not for me, for the kids.
41:16Laurel, please.
41:17No, no.
41:18I'm sorry, there's not anything you can say or do
41:21that's going to make me change my mind.
41:23I don't want to be with you anymore.
41:25You and me, it's over.
41:34You going somewhere?
41:36I was going to call you from the car.
41:39Just thought it'd be easier.
41:41You were going to call me from the car about what?
41:46We're leaving.
41:49I'm sorry, Mum.
41:50It's not been an easy decision, but we're going.
41:53Go where?
41:54I'm not sure yet.
41:56Travelling somewhere.
41:57Seriously?
41:59You can't just leave.
42:00We need a fresh start.
42:02Both of us.
42:04Away from here and away from me dad especially.
42:07Oh, Nicky, no.
42:09They're leaving.
42:11What?
42:13Where are you going?
42:14None of your business.
42:15Nicky.
42:16What?
42:17I'm not interested in anything he has to say.
42:19Can we just at least talk about this?
42:20We've talked enough.
42:23I'm sorry, Mum.
42:28You take care, alright?
42:34Both of you.
42:36You better take care of him.
42:38I will.
42:39I promise.
42:42I love you.
42:46Nicky, please don't do this.
42:49Look, we can sort it out.
42:53I promise.
