00:30["Pomp and Circumstance"]
00:40Okay, so that's booked.
00:41You'll send me a confirmation email.
00:44Thank you.
00:45Have a nice day.
00:48Friday the 27th?
00:50Friday the 27th, yeah.
00:52Shame we couldn't get Saturday.
00:55Yeah, but people can turn it into
00:57a long weekend, can't they?
00:58Good thought.
00:59But still, Friday the 27th of September sounds like a good day to get married.
01:04Hey, your divorce will have gone through by then.
01:07Absolutely. Are you sure?
01:09I'm so sure I'm going to transfer the five grand deposit right now.
01:13You'll split the costs, yeah?
01:15Well, I don't want your dad to feel bad.
01:17All he wants is for me to be happy.
01:19Well, all I want is for you to be happy.
01:24Hey, we'd better get started on our vows, then.
01:27Vows? I'm happy with traditional love and cherish stuff, aren't you?
01:32Well, yeah, but it's our one chance to express our feelings
01:35in front of our friends and family, in front of God.
01:38I thought you'd want the traditional things.
01:40In sickness and in health, till death do us part.
01:42You can't get much bigger than that.
01:44I do want tradition. I just... I want it to be personal, too.
01:48You know, I want it to be special.
01:51It will be, I promise.
01:54Right, we'd better get a wriggle on.
01:56I told Bethany I'm meeting her in a cafe later.
01:58I'm not sure about encouraging her amateur detective thing, Joel.
02:02I want the police to find Lauren, too, but... I don't know.
02:06Plus, we have got a whole list of jobs to start.
02:08I mean, it's not just the vows, there are guest lists, menus,
02:11you've got to try on some top hats.
02:13Right, well, first, I represented Nathan, the man who raped her,
02:16so I feel like I owe her.
02:18And second, me, in a top hat.
02:20You're just doing your job.
02:22I love that you care about people.
02:25And if we find her, that absolutely nails Roy's innocence.
02:28You're a good man.
02:30I try.
02:32And that is exactly why I am marrying you on Friday 27th September.
02:37Why don't you put that in your vows?
02:40Yeah, I'm going to the hospital in a bit to pick him up.
02:43OK, well, I can give you a lift if you like.
02:45Oh, thanks, but I'm just going to take the bus.
02:47Oh, are you?
02:49Well, park the far side of the car park,
02:51cos nobody likes parking near the scapes of Sting, woman.
02:53Oh, thanks for the tip.
02:55You know, I just still can't get my head around
02:57how she could put Roy through this.
02:59I mean, how can she be so selfish?
03:01Don't get me started.
03:03Morning, boss.
03:05Oh, you're early today.
03:07Oh, Mum just dropped me off. Her idea, not mine.
03:10She likes an early start, so much to do,
03:12missing girls, assaulted local boys.
03:15There you go. Thanks.
03:18Do you mind if I have some brekkie in here before I come into work?
03:21Yeah, go on.
03:23Except I have no money.
03:29Nina, tell Roy I'll see him later.
03:32There you go.
03:34So, has she said anything to you?
03:36No, she seems to be coping all right, doesn't she?
03:38Although I'm not sure if she needs to be in today.
03:41Well, maybe she just wants to keep busy.
03:44Oh, my ears are burning.
03:46Yeah, cos we're talking about you.
03:48No, I just got my head too close to that eye-level grill,
03:50and they're really warm.
03:52At least she's not lost her sense of humour.
03:54Look, are you sure you want to be in today?
03:56We can manage without you.
03:58What I want is for you both to stop treating me with kid gloves, OK?
04:01I'm fine, and working helps take my mind off the other stuff.
04:04OK, well, whatever you want to do, then that's what we'll do.
04:08Thanks. Well, I'll get back to the kitchen
04:10and you can carry on talking about me behind my back.
04:13At least she seems in good spirits.
04:15Fingers crossed.
04:17I'm going to make some phone call.
04:20Hi. Hi, how are things?
04:22Yeah, OK.
04:24I was just wondering if you'd spoken to Amy.
04:26I sent her some info on the business retreat,
04:28but she's not gotten back to me.
04:30Oh, I think Amy might be cooling.
04:32Really? Yeah.
04:34I... Well, it's my fault.
04:36I showed her Oliver's AI and I think it might have spooked her.
04:39You made it clear that's only one of our many techniques and opportunities we can offer.
04:43Well, I didn't really get the chance.
04:45She... She shut me down.
04:47Oh. I've always admired your tenacity.
04:50Surprised you gave up so easily.
04:52No, I've not given up. I will speak to her.
04:54It's just I'm just gearing myself up for a final push.
04:57I was so right to put my faith in you.
05:00Well done.
05:02Coffee? Yeah, please.
05:04Well, I thought your business study degree
05:07would have covered bookkeeping and accountancy.
05:10It does, but it's obviously not prepared me
05:12for my mother's unique attitude towards numbers.
05:14Oh, well, I would offer to help,
05:16but I've never been very good with numbers.
05:18You know, I prefer the more creative side of life.
05:21Numbers are so cold, soulless.
05:24You know, I prefer the soft, the tender, the warm.
05:28Well, how about you take your soft side
05:31over to the shop whilst I try and make sense of these books?
05:34Good idea. Let's play to our strengths.
05:37Now, I'm looking for patterns, but I can't see anything.
05:41Hmm. Leicester's a big place when you're looking for one person.
05:45She was using your credit card details.
05:47She must have known one day
05:49someone would try and trace her movements.
05:51Well, yeah, but the card's been stopped.
05:53So how has she been living? How has she bought food?
05:56PHONE RINGS
05:59Of course, she might not be in Leicester.
06:03After risking going to see Roy at the hospital,
06:05she might have wanted to get as far away as she could.
06:08Or maybe she's feeling braver.
06:10Maybe she's closer than we think.
06:12Any joy?
06:14Not yet. Yeah, we'll keep going.
06:16Craig was in earlier.
06:18I pestered him to put a rocket under the police search.
06:20He said he'd be back in an hour.
06:22I don't think he's back yet.
06:24We'll keep going. Craig was in earlier.
06:26I pestered him to put a rocket under the police search.
06:28I mean, the more people are looking for her,
06:30the sooner we'll find her.
06:32And that way, we'll know exactly why she put Roy through this nightmare.
06:38SIGHS
06:40All right, thanks anyway.
06:42Bye.
06:44SIGHS
06:46How can he be gone already?
06:48Because it was big enough for a family.
06:50For once, we could afford the rent.
06:52We're looking for accommodation.
06:54Yeah, but how many other people are about to get kicked out of their own home?
06:57Hey, something will come up.
06:59Will it?
07:01I spoke to Billy.
07:03He said that the council will put us on a waiting list
07:05and we'll be entitled to emergency housing in the meantime.
07:07So we're not going to go homeless yet.
07:09I know.
07:11But we've got the kids and the school.
07:13Apple. We don't need this.
07:17I feel like I've let you down.
07:19Can't even put a roof over our heads.
07:21We're a team, yeah?
07:23Even if we end up living in a cardboard box outside,
07:25I'd rather be doing it with you.
07:34Have you checked the photo?
07:37Look, she's probably using a false name.
07:39Why did you...?
07:42Yes. Yeah.
07:44Well, thank you for not doing anything.
07:46I hope you're this helpful when the police contact you.
07:49Flippin' heck.
07:51I take it the search ain't going well.
07:53Oh, I didn't hear you come in.
07:55Yeah, it's one of my many hidden talents.
07:57I can be stealthy like a ninja when I want to be.
07:59Are you OK?
08:02I'm just frustrated.
08:05Well, let's hope the police are having more luck, eh?
08:09Anyway, how many people have you told?
08:12Told what?
08:14That we've set a date.
08:16That we've set a date?
08:18That we've got a venue for the wedding?
08:20Oh, I've not had time.
08:22Well, chop, chop, babe. Clock is ticking.
08:25Is that news?
08:29Work.
08:31I have to go.
08:33Are you sure you're happy?
08:35About setting a date, getting married?
08:40Of course. I'm sorry.
08:42There's just so much to do, and work, and Lauren.
08:46Fuck you, worry too much.
08:48How you let the police do the job?
08:51You never know, they might have found her already.
08:56Once everything's sorted,
08:59then we can enjoy planning our wedding.
09:03I have to go.
09:05See you later.
09:12Bye.
09:26These are very neat, you know.
09:28Well, it's all she's done all morning.
09:30And she's swinging the lead.
09:32And she doesn't take a blind bit of notice of what I have to say.
09:35Where is she now?
09:37I sent her down to pack her things.
09:39I'm trying to get a red band, what's expected of you,
09:41you know, in a workplace.
09:43Hmm, I thought maybe you could choose a different worker for us to shadow.
09:47But she's learning so much from you, Beth.
09:50Sorry to interrupt, but Bexie has a request.
09:53What request? I need to leave early for lunch.
09:55We have dinner at one.
09:56That's what I said, but it's an emergency.
09:58What's the emergency?
10:00I spilt some water on my phone and it keeps running out of charge.
10:02I need a new one.
10:04Your phone is not an emergency.
10:06What if I need to phone my mum?
10:08It's really important to talk to her about.
10:12OK, well, you can go half an hour early and come back half an hour early.
10:15OK.
10:17I need a toilet break.
10:22Does that mean I can go for my dinner as well?
10:24No, it doesn't.
10:25So it's one rule for her and another for the rest of us.
10:28Get over yourself, Beth.
10:30She's work experience.
10:32Cut her some slack, don't you work?
10:35Hey, you just caught me. I'm actually heading out.
10:38Yeah, Joel mentioned you've not had much luck tracking down Lauren.
10:42No, but I'm going to head over to Leicester.
10:45I've got a list of soup kitchens and hostels that I want to check out.
10:48I mean, it'll probably be nothing, but I feel like I've got to do something.
10:52Well, that might be where I may be able to help.
10:55I was having a little look at the statements and I just...
10:58I think she might have moved on from Leicester.
11:00Really? How come?
11:02Well, come and have a look.
11:04She made most of her purchases on online shops,
11:08but she also bought some rail tickets from a train app.
11:11And I've checked with the train company.
11:13Most of them are a weird day of returns around the Midlands area.
11:16Yeah, I saw those, but I just assumed
11:18that that's where she was picking up the stuff she bought.
11:20Well, yeah, but look at this.
11:23The last ticket she bought before the card was stopped cost £55.10.
11:29Now, that was an any time single to Warrington.
11:32No return.
11:34I think she might have moved there.
11:36Unless she got the bus back.
11:38There's no sign of a bus ticket.
11:40I mean, why would she do that when she was travelling for free on your card?
11:44I think we should start there.
11:46We?
11:48Well, I'm free all day if you want some help.
11:51Yeah, let's do it.
11:59I'm thinking about Lauren.
12:01Any news?
12:03Not heard anything, but everyone seems to be looking for her.
12:06Everyone?
12:08Yeah, well, Bethany and Joel were in the cafe earlier,
12:11and apparently Bethany thinks that Lauren's been using a credit card
12:14and living in Leicester.
12:15Leicester? Yeah.
12:17What do the police know about this?
12:19Well, I've tributed Craig into making sure the police do everything they can
12:22to make sure they don't find her.
12:24Sounds quite promising.
12:26Yeah, well, she can't hide away forever.
12:29She may have good reason for hiding.
12:33Has the doctor come to see you yet?
12:36Oh, he's already been.
12:38What did he say?
12:40Oh, well, the usual checks, blood pressure, heart rate, temperature,
12:45all within acceptable limits.
12:48Oh.
12:51All within acceptable limits.
12:54All right, so is he going to discharge you, then?
12:56Oh, he also made it clear that I have to continue
12:59with the cardiac rehab programme.
13:02He gave me the leaflet.
13:04Leaflet?
13:05It's all the relevant information.
13:07Yeah.
13:08They like to hand out leaflets.
13:10Just as easily download that information.
13:13Oh, there's some medication.
13:16So can you go home, then?
13:18And that, that's the letter,
13:20discharge summary,
13:22sent to the GP.
13:24So can you come home?
13:26I believe so, yes.
13:27Right, well, do you want me to help you get dressed, then?
13:30I don't think so.
13:32Right, well, I'll pull the curtain back
13:34and I'll let you get yourself sorted out.
13:39Erm...
13:41Gentle word of warning.
13:43You do not swim around here calling the shots to me.
13:46Word is, Travis is making a good recovery.
13:48But his mum's still fuming, pestering the police
13:50to find the vicious thug who assaulted her son.
13:52I feel terrible about what happened.
13:54It didn't just happen. You whacked him with a car door.
13:56Oh, now you're exaggerating.
13:58I'm saving your skin.
14:00Buy me a new phone.
14:02You can only push me so far, you know.
14:04No problem, I've got someone else who'll buy me things.
14:07Really? Another blackmail victim?
14:09Wouldn't you like to know?
14:10Anyway, love to chat, but I'm off for lunch.
14:12I said half an hour.
14:13What's another 20 minutes between friends?
14:15Is she going to dinner?
14:17Oh, Beth, stop it.
14:18I'm sorry, but if she can just swan off whenever she feels like it,
14:21why can't the rest of us?
14:23Because I said so.
14:25She's playing you for a fool.
14:26Seriously?
14:27You seriously think I'd let a teenager walk all over me, hmm?
14:31Get back to work, Beth.
14:36Girls love responsibility.
14:38They'll put you on a waiting list for temporary accommodation.
14:40And if that doesn't come through in time,
14:42you're entitled to emergency housing.
14:44Yeah, that's what Billy said, isn't it?
14:46Yes, it's true.
14:48I mean, I've been looking at flats and houses every chance I get,
14:51but there's nothing out there we can afford. It's ridiculous.
14:54Sorry to interrupt, but I couldn't help overhearing.
14:57Oh, you mean you was here, Wiggin?
14:59Actually, I might be able to help you.
15:01One of my regular customers came in today to cancel her newspaper order.
15:06How does that help us?
15:08Because her and her family are having to move out of their rented
15:11accommodation on Balaclava Terrace.
15:13Her husband's got a job in Newcastle.
15:15She's reluctant to move because the rent's so low
15:18and the landlord is apparently a sweetheart.
15:21How many bedrooms?
15:23Er, three and a box room and a small garden.
15:25That could be perfect.
15:26I could call and find out the name of the landlord, if you like.
15:28Yeah, can you?
15:29Oh, please.
15:30After lunch?
15:31I'll do it now and I'll buy you a pint to go with that.
15:34Er, always happy to help.
15:37I'm just a bit gutted it's not closer.
15:39I don't like being away from my phone.
15:42It just don't work out. Something else will turn up.
15:47Did you see her face when you showed her the picture of Lauren?
15:50Yeah. Then she said she's not seen her.
15:53She could be trying to protect her.
15:55We need to be careful not to frighten her off, you know.
15:58I do think we're close.
15:59Yeah, me too.
16:00And I think you're right, I think she's around here somewhere.
16:03Excuse me.
16:04Did I hear you mention a woman called Lauren?
16:06Er, yeah.
16:08Yeah, we're her friends.
16:09But we know she's scared but we just want to find her, help her.
16:12I've seen her ear.
16:14Really?
16:16I can't believe she can trust us.
16:18Maybe you can speak to her and tell her that Didi and Bethany just want to help her.
16:21Yeah, or if you know where she's living.
16:23I'm not sure I should say anything.
16:25Look, if she doesn't want to meet face to face, that's fine.
16:28But maybe you could get her to come and see you.
16:30If she doesn't want to meet face to face, that's fine.
16:32But maybe you could get her to call us, we can give you our numbers.
16:35Look, please.
16:36We just want to help.
16:39There's a pub, King's Arms, about a mile from here.
16:42It's closed down and I know a few people are squatting there.
16:45She might be there.
16:47Thank you so much.
16:48You are her friends?
16:49Yeah, yeah we are.
16:51I hope you are.
16:52Can't be too careful.
16:53Not with a pregnant kid, alone on the streets.
16:56Best of luck.
17:01Shit.
17:09Hi.
17:10Is it a bad time?
17:11No, just going around in circles with these accounts.
17:14I'd blame my mother if she was here, but she's not.
17:16And also Mary's not exactly good with numbers.
17:18Or reality.
17:19Well, I could always take a look if you want.
17:22I don't know.
17:24Listen.
17:26I'm sorry about yesterday.
17:28I shouldn't have shown you Oliver's AI.
17:30He was your brother as well as my son.
17:33And to be honest with you, you're not the only one who thinks it's a bit weird.
17:36You should have seen the looks Tyra and Nick gave me.
17:39I didn't mean to suggest that you were weird.
17:43Well, anyway.
17:44I just wanted to say, don't let it put you off the Institute.
17:48They really can help you in so many ways.
17:51All tailored to our own individual needs.
17:54Like some better accountancy skills.
17:56Yeah, exactly.
17:58And I'd be happy to help.
18:02How much would it cost me?
18:04Well, make us a brew and we'll call it quits.
18:07Okay.
18:08Thanks.
18:09But please, do have a think.
18:12Long term, the Institute really can help you in loads of ways.
18:16I will.
18:17Promise.
18:21Hey, there we go.
18:24Er, yeah, is that for table six?
18:26Yeah.
18:27I thought they ordered the whites on sale.
18:29No, it's red.
18:30You sure?
18:31Yes, of course I'm sure.
18:33Because no, no, it was the white.
18:35Hey, it's okay.
18:36Look, don't worry.
18:37Easily changed and, er...
18:40No woman, no.
18:43Sure you're okay?
18:44Yes.
18:46I'm sorry.
18:48I worry about you.
18:49Well, don't.
18:50Okay?
18:51Not until we know for sure that there is something to worry about.
18:55Right, look, do you want me to take it over?
18:56It's good.
18:57I've got this.
19:00Ah.
19:01Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
19:02It's all right, it's okay.
19:03I've got you.
19:05Hmm.
19:09Er, Roy?
19:11What you doing?
19:12Oh, just making one or two adjustments to the staff order.
19:17Right.
19:18And remind me what the doctor said to you again?
19:20Well, there is nothing stressful with a little light admin.
19:25And, you know, I'm happy to take my time to recuperate
19:29and ease myself into the more arduous aspects of cafe hospitality.
19:34Yeah, I should think so.
19:36You've only been back five minutes.
19:38Aye, well, the roads can wait.
19:43Yeah, well, anyways, let's just go to have you back home.
19:47Do you think it'd be all right to contact Dee Dee?
19:50See if there's been any progress in finding Lauren.
19:54Right, well, one text, no more than two sentences,
19:57and, yes, you may use punctuation, but no emojis.
20:00Thank you very much.
20:09Alan?
20:11Oh, hi.
20:12Is everything all right?
20:13Hi. Is everything all right?
20:15Erm...
20:16Aja, have you got a minute to talk?
20:21I just need some more money. I mean, you can afford it.
20:24What's the big deal?
20:28You think money grows on trees?
20:31Some of us have to work to earn money.
20:34Why is this such a problem for you?
20:36Look at your car, your suit.
20:38You buy a million phones.
20:40And I need a new one.
20:42You know what it's like. People can't live without a phone.
20:47I need to take this.
20:49Keep quiet, yeah?
20:56Hey, I just got your messages. I was about to call you.
20:59I think we might have found her.
21:02Really?
21:03That's great.
21:05You never guess what.
21:06Apparently she's pregnant.
21:12Where are you?
21:13Warrington.
21:14We're on our way to this run-down pub, The King's Arms.
21:17Apparently she's living in a squat there.
21:20I could be there in half an hour.
21:22Why don't you wait and we'll check it out together?
21:24I'm not alone. Don't worry. Bethany's here.
21:26I still think it'd be safer if you wait till I get there.
21:29It could be dangerous.
21:30Maybe you could get a coffee. I won't be long.
21:33No, Joel, I don't want to risk her getting wind and moving on.
21:36All right, speak to you soon. Bye.
21:43Can I speak now?
21:45Out. Now.
21:47What?
21:49Get out of the car.
21:52You don't need to be like that. It's only a few quid to you.
21:55Just get out and close the door.
21:57You can't leave me. I don't know where I am.
21:59You drove. How am I going to get home?
22:01Get out!
22:13Is this about Betsy?
22:15Yeah.
22:17Thing is, it's not really working here, working at the factory.
22:21Right. What's she done now?
22:23Look, whatever it is, I'm sure we can sort it out.
22:26No. See, like, I've already cut a load of slack.
22:30I've got a job.
22:31I've got a job.
22:32I've got a job.
22:33I've got a job.
22:34I've got a job.
22:35I've got a job.
22:36I've got a job.
22:37I've got a job.
22:38I've got a job.
22:39I've got a job.
22:40I've already cut a load of slack,
22:42and I've given her chance after chance,
22:44despite her not having any real experience.
22:47Yeah, I know, and I'm very grateful.
22:49Yeah.
22:50Well, her way of thanking me is to take liberties and to threaten me.
22:55You see, she's not even there now. She's not even working.
22:58This is what I came to tell you.
23:00She's actually...
23:01Sorry, just two secs.
23:04This is her now.
23:07Betsy?
23:08What are you...?
23:11Where are you?
23:14Say that again.
23:17Stay where you are.
23:19What is it?
23:21I think she said Gable Street.
23:22What's she doing there? That's dangerous. Full of scumbags.
23:25I'm going to have to drive over and find her.
23:27OK, do you want me to help?
23:29Erm, one?
23:30Er, yeah, thank you.
23:35That was disgusting.
23:37Thank you, sir.
23:38And I'm not paying for it.
23:40If there was something wrong, you should have said before you ate it.
23:42You wolfed it down.
23:43I was hungry, and the portion was stingy.
23:46I wouldn't even give it a one-star review.
23:49A zero, if I could.
23:51Is there a problem, Nina?
23:53No, I can manage.
23:55As long as this man pays for his food.
23:57You go upstairs and rest.
23:59It was rank.
24:01I recall you.
24:04You come to Ogle at me again.
24:07Whisper about what a weirdo I am.
24:10Eh? Is he one of them web-sleuths from before?
24:13You look just as weird as him.
24:16A pair of weirdos.
24:19I bet you're in it together.
24:22Protecting his dirty secrets.
24:24Ah, no, no.
24:25By all means, direct your vitriol at me.
24:28Leave my niece out of this.
24:30Oh, but by the way,
24:32Lauren has been confirmed alive.
24:36Something I'm sure you'll find out.
24:39And I also hope that you find the self-awareness that you currently lack
24:45and realise the negative effects of your actions.
24:48Now...
24:51Go away.
24:53CLASSICAL MUSIC PLAYS
24:59This place sounds whelming.
25:02The garden, although small, has been described as a mini-kew,
25:06which is the Royal Botanic Gardens.
25:08No need to mansplain, Brian.
25:10I know what the kew is.
25:12Other granny'll end up banging on about it.
25:14A woman with fine taste?
25:16Well, if this comes off, you can come round,
25:19you can tan yourself in the weather kew whenever you want.
25:22Why, thank you, Gemma.
25:24It's tragic that good people like you can't find a decent place to live,
25:27so I'm happy to help.
25:29Not all heroes wear keepsie.
25:31You know, I've always felt I'd look great in a cowl.
25:35Oh, is he?
25:39Oh, no joy.
25:41I didn't even get a chance to see it.
25:43I turned up and there's a massive kew round the corner.
25:45No way.
25:46I stood there for a bit and the kew died down,
25:49but the estate agent came out and just said the house had gone.
25:52So quick.
25:54Thanks for the tip-off, though, Brian.
25:56I'm just sorry I didn't bear fruit.
25:58I'll keep a lookout if I hear of any other places.
26:01Don't panic, we'll find somewhere else.
26:03What if we don't? We're going to get evicted in a month.
26:08Oh, hi, Nina.
26:10How's Roy doing?
26:11He's OK. It's on the men, but I'm still worried about him.
26:15Not sure how much rest he's going to get in here.
26:17Well, maybe he needs to go away for a bit.
26:19When I went on the retreat with the Institute,
26:21it did me the world of good.
26:22Anyway, give him your best, won't you?
26:24Yeah, yeah, I will.
26:26I got you a coffee. You deserve a much bigger reward.
26:29Oh, skinny milk?
26:30Of course. I just wanted a touch base.
26:33So, has Amy signed up for the retreat?
26:35She most certainly has.
26:36Oh, good. I think she'll get a lot from it.
26:39There's something else I want to talk to you about.
26:41We're thinking of setting up another resource centre in the near future.
26:44The others have done so well financially.
26:47Oh, well, bring it on.
26:49There might be a job for you, if you're interested.
26:53Oh, I can't. I've already got a full-time job.
26:56You could easily fit it around your Bistro commitments.
27:00There is another option.
27:02Oh, yeah?
27:03You could be an investor. Help get it off the ground.
27:07What? You mean, like, invest my own money?
27:10Yeah, you'd soon get it back with a hefty profit.
27:13You should see the figures for the others.
27:15It would put you on a completely different level.
27:19Someone with your talent deserves a share of the profits.
27:22Oh, I'm really flattered, but I'd have to talk to Nick.
27:26But how much money are we talking?
27:2840K.
27:39Someone asking for you.
27:41Who is it?
27:42Who is it?
27:43I don't know. I don't care. Go and see for yourself.
28:07Hi, Dave.
28:13Look, let's not scare her off by knocking again.
28:16He said he's going to get her.
28:18I know, but what is taking them so long?
28:20I don't know.
28:21It's pretty rough, isn't it?
28:23Yeah.
28:24So let's tread carefully. She is here.
28:31Hi, Joel.
28:32Yeah, I think we found her at this pub.
28:35I'm almost there.
28:36OK, see you when you get there. Bye.
28:38Bethany! Bethany, wait!
28:48Is Lauren here?
28:50Yeah. You've just missed her.
28:53Looks like she's done another runner.
28:56I will scream if you come anywhere near me.
28:59I'm trying to help you. You don't have to hide from me.
29:01Stay away from me.
29:03Let's get in the car.
29:04Can't we have girls, mate?
29:05I'm just trying to help you. You need me.
29:08No, I'm not.
29:09I'm not.
29:10I'm not.
29:11I'm not.
29:12I'm not.
29:13I'm not.
29:14I'm not.
29:15I'm not.
29:16I'm not.
29:17I'm not.
29:18I'm not.
29:19I'm not.
29:20I'm not.
29:21I'm not.
29:22I'm not.
29:23I'm not.
29:24No, no.
29:28You're going to have to talk to me at some point about what happened.
29:31You've been giving me the runaround all day.
29:33Now you're doing it to your mum. It's not OK.
29:35Both of you going on and me back off.
29:36That is enough.
29:38What the hell were you doing there in the first place?
29:40It's not an area you should be hanging out in.
29:43But what was so important to you that you had to drop everything?
29:46Hm?
29:52PHONE RINGS
29:54Dwayne.
29:58Are you kidding?
30:01No, I'm on my way.
30:04This will have to wait till later. I need to get back to work.
30:07Thanks again, Carla.
30:08No problem.
30:12Hello.
30:13I'm sure it was something important.
30:15Am I really sacked?
30:18Come on, let's talk.
30:21Leave me alone.
30:22How many times do I need to tell you I care about you and the baby?
30:27Keep quiet about everything and I promise I'll make it worth your while.
30:30Hey, you found her.
30:32She hadn't gotten far.
30:33She was hanging around here, then she fainted.
30:36Are you all right?
30:38Fell over the shoulder.
30:40Dizzy.
30:41But then my legs went from underneath me.
30:43Dizzy.
30:44But then my legs went from underneath me.
30:47I hope the baby's OK.
30:49So do I.
30:52I wish you would just stop running away like this.
30:56I thought you hated me.
30:59Look, Lauren, we just...
31:02We want to understand what's happened that's made you run away all this time.
31:11I'm scared.
31:14I'm scared.
31:18I think we need to get you to a hospital. Come on.
31:23Let's get her in the car.
31:37Patsy, you!
31:38Blackmailing me.
31:39It's got to stop.
31:40Can I plug this in?
31:41Oh, yeah. What's this, a free bit of lecky?
31:43You know, when you've got me over a barrel, anyway.
31:45You might need to think carefully before getting rid of me.
31:50You know what?
31:52No, you can't borrow this.
31:54Take your charger and your phone and shove it!
32:01I'm going to go and tell the police.
32:02And I don't care how much trouble I get in.
32:04I'm not being blackmailed by a kid like you.
32:07I was winding you up. I'm not a grass.
32:09The idea you deserve what you did to him.
32:12I saw what you did to your friend, Roy.
32:14You were just playing games with me.
32:15No, I admit it. I went too far with the blackmailing.
32:18Oh, finally. Some accountability.
32:22Patsy, what you did was stupid.
32:24I know it was.
32:25I do stupid things when I'm back into a corner.
32:27Life's been rubbish for me lately.
32:29And this job is the first thing I've had in ages to look forward to.
32:33Let me guess, you've got other priorities.
32:35Not everything revolves around you, you know.
32:39Actually, I do have to deal with something.
32:42But look, Betsy.
32:45I will think about keeping you on.
32:48Yeah, if...
32:50You'd smooth things over with your mum and just talk to her.
32:53She was out of her mind with Rory just then.
32:58Go on.
33:00Thanks, Carla.
33:09I really hope we get to the bottom of all this.
33:11We will.
33:13Unless she doesn't know the run at all.
33:15Yeah, she looked to be in a very good way, did she?
33:19Hi.
33:21Happy to report that Lauren and the baby are fine.
33:24Her fainting isn't uncommon in pregnancy.
33:26Especially for standing, for any length of time.
33:30Right. She was also living in the squat,
33:32so, I mean, she probably hasn't been eating properly.
33:34OK, we'll keep her in overnight and do some scans and observations.
33:37Is she allowed to see visitors?
33:38She's just had an ultrasound, but I'll let you know when you can go in.
33:41So...
33:43I think I might wait till we can see her.
33:46Yeah, well, does anyone fancy a coffee?
33:48Yeah, please.
33:49I'd better get off, but I'll let Max and Bobby know that she's OK.
33:52I'll see you later.
33:53See you later.
33:54I'm going to give Rory an update and I'll...
33:56Yeah, and I'll get that coffee.
34:02Do you think she'd take the day off work?
34:04I've told you, I'm fine, OK?
34:06I want to work.
34:07Yeah, but you're not fit to work.
34:08Hi.
34:09I've got some really exciting news.
34:13Everything OK?
34:14Oh, he's trying to make me have the day off work.
34:17Your sister almost collapsed at work.
34:19Really?
34:20It's no big deal, OK?
34:21He's being over-cautious.
34:22Anyway, you said you had some exciting news?
34:25Oh, it can wait.
34:27No, I'm OK, honestly.
34:28What's the news?
34:30Rowan wants me to invest in a new resource centre.
34:33Oh.
34:34Oh.
34:35What, invest as in coffer money?
34:37It's a really exciting opportunity.
34:39And the centres don't lose money.
34:41I'd get a share of the profits.
34:43So I've already rang the bank manager and asked him about remortgaging...
34:46Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
34:47Over my dead body.
34:48You're not doing that without my permission.
34:50No, that's what I want to talk to you about.
34:52No, no, there's other things to worry about.
34:53Your sister almost collapsed at work.
34:55Come on, we should be focusing on her.
34:59Yeah, yeah, I'm sorry.
35:00I'm being really selfish.
35:01I'm sorry.
35:02Is there anything I can get you, Taya?
35:04Well, I'd feel a lot better
35:05if you weren't banging on about the institute all the time.
35:08Yeah.
35:09You know, we shouldn't be thinking about new business, all right?
35:12Yeah, OK.
35:13Well, I'll tell Rowan, then.
35:17What kind of man leaves a vulnerable girl in the middle of nowhere?
35:20Dodgy area.
35:21A creep.
35:22That's her.
35:24Hey, I need to speak to you about something.
35:27Roy?
35:28Where are you going?
35:29Warrington Hospital.
35:30Dee Dee tells me that Lorna's there.
35:32Morning, mate.
35:33Hi, Carla.
35:35I don't think you've heard about Lorna.
35:37I have, yeah.
35:38Yeah, that's where he's going now.
35:39What?
35:40No, you've got to stay away from her.
35:42Yeah, she's right.
35:43You need to take things slowly.
35:44Anyway, I've spoken to Cassie.
35:46She's fine.
35:47She's fine.
35:48She's fine.
35:49She's fine.
35:50She's fine.
35:51She's fine.
35:52I've spoken to Cathy.
35:53And she's invited you to stay in Scarborough.
35:55And, you know, I think it'll be good.
35:57A change of scenery.
35:58Gives you a chance to rest.
36:02We'll have some happy times here, won't we?
36:04I don't want to leave.
36:06We'll have happy times wherever we live.
36:09We can't have the kids living somewhere that's not safe.
36:12Our houses get damp and mouldy.
36:14It's like living in Victorian times.
36:18Anyway, I've spoken to Linda.
36:19She said that Joseph can live with her for a bit in her new place in Manchester.
36:23If need be, he can still go to Orkney.
36:27Gemma, it isn't me picking him over the others.
36:30It just might speed things up if we're looking for a place with one less person.
36:33But he's the only one of the kids that she's interested in.
36:38I don't want to split the family up, even if it's just for a few weeks.
36:41Well, neither do I.
36:42But we might have no other option.
36:45We're a family.
36:46We stay together.
36:49I'm off.
37:05What you doing?
37:07Oh, just slaving away, as per.
37:09Oh, you don't strike me as the diligent type.
37:12Oh, it's over time, babes.
37:15Why'd you try and hide it when I came in?
37:17Well, like a T-shirt, not knickers.
37:19You want to get your eyesight checked. You're seeing things.
37:23Are you making counterfeit gear?
37:27No!
37:30You're defo up to something.
37:38Most people complain about the food in here.
37:40Good to see someone's enjoying it.
37:43I'm starving.
37:45You eating properly?
37:47Don't women need to look after their blood sugar?
37:50What, even skimp pregnant women?
37:56Life's not great at the minute.
37:58I keep having to move.
38:03From the minute I found out I was pregnant,
38:07I knew I had to give this baby a life I never had.
38:12Protect him.
38:13Is he having a boy?
38:15I just hope it's a boy.
38:18It'll be easier for him.
38:20I can see how much you love him already.
38:23So, please, don't be too hard on yourself.
38:28Messed up.
38:30Do you want to talk about it?
38:34Denise?
38:39I can assure you, whatever led you here can be sorted.
38:48Please, don't press that.
38:51What the hell are you doing here?
38:55No Beth?
38:56I did text her.
38:57She says she's volunteering in a soup kitchen.
39:00That's not like Beth.
39:01Oh, yeah.
39:02She cares deeply about people who are less fortunate than her.
39:04She says she might climb out Kilimanjaro next year.
39:08Do you mind if I join you?
39:09Course.
39:10We've got a lot of work to do.
39:11I'll see you later.
39:12Bye.
39:14Do you mind if I join you?
39:16Course.
39:17Red wine, is it?
39:18No, no.
39:19I think I might push the boat out and have a dirty martini, if they've got any olives.
39:24I think Daisy gets them in.
39:26I think I might have a clean pint of lager.
39:31Welcome to the Institute.
39:32Thank you.
39:33Ah, this is why you're having a celebration drink.
39:35You are going to get so much out of this.
39:37It was my mum wanting me to run the shop that really clinched it.
39:39I wanted to do great.
39:40This gives me loads of contacts.
39:44Well, Leanne is going to give you the course details.
39:46I need to run.
39:48Thanks, Rowan.
39:49Bye.
39:50I just need to have a quick word with him before he goes.
39:52Er, Rowan.
39:55I just thought you should know we won't be able to invest in the new centre.
39:58Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
40:00I'm guessing Nick was opposed.
40:03Yeah, yeah, he was, but I agree with him.
40:06Investing that amount of money, it's got to be a joint decision.
40:09Don't just give up.
40:11Amy took some persuading to get on board.
40:13I don't think he'll change his mind.
40:16Why don't I have a word with him?
40:18I might be able to make him see that it's not just about money.
40:21It's about your happiness.
40:23Well, it's how I feel, genuinely.
40:28Do you think it's possible you've outgrown him?
40:30He obviously feels threatened by your success with us.
40:35I'm sorry. I've overstepped the mark. I apologise.
40:38No, no, he's just protective, that's all.
40:40And I quite like that.
40:42I mean, it can be a bit stifling sometimes.
40:44Someone ought to tug his lead.
40:46Make him see what he has to lose.
40:54Yeah.
40:55I've just arrived at the hospital now.
40:58No, I'm going to find a doctor.
41:00See if I can interview her.
41:03I know you're still angry with me.
41:05I can see that I will carry the shame of this.
41:10You're trying to wiggle your way out of it.
41:12But I don't believe you.
41:14No way.
41:15I can't go to prison.
41:20What good would that do for you or our baby?
41:28I know the police are on their way.
41:31When you talk to them...
41:34..I want you to lie.
41:36What, I'm getting some more trouble?
41:38I want you to say it was Nathan Curtis who attacked you.
41:44Who's Nathan Curtis?
41:45He's already in prison for breaching his HPSO.
41:47They think he's responsible for your disappearance.
41:50Yeah, but he hadn't had to do with it, did he?
41:52Well, neither did Roy Cropper.
41:54But the police still charged him.
41:57So you tell the police you made a huge mistake
42:01and you've regretted it ever since,
42:03and crucially, you do not want to take things any further.
42:08You might be able to lie through your teeth.
42:10Lauren, it gives me no pleasure saying this,
42:12but you have got no-one in this world looking out for you,
42:15otherwise you wouldn't be living in a squat
42:17not knowing when your next meal is.
42:22This isn't good for you or the baby.
42:26I want to help you.
42:29I want to help you.
42:34But on your terms, you will be the one calling the shots.
42:42All you need to do is tell the police you started chatting on Ovid.
42:47He was one of your subscribers.
42:49You started meeting up and then things got messy.
42:53Lauren, you can still hate me,
42:56but why not do it from a nice flap paid for by me?
43:03Some way you and the baby will be safe.
43:10Oh, hi. Hi.
43:12I'm looking for Lauren Bolton.
43:14She's in there.
43:15Is she still in there?
43:19OK, right.
43:21My name's Detective Sergeant Lisa Swain.
43:23I'm from Weatherfield Police Station.
43:26Am I OK to come in?
43:27Yeah, it's fine.
43:29Great, thank you.
43:41Hi, Lauren.
43:45I'm Detective Sergeant Lisa Swain.
43:48I'm hoping to finally get some answers about what happened to you.
44:02The practice interview gets underway,
44:04but Douglas seems to be out of his depth
44:06and a confrontation with his daughter unnerves more home troops.
44:09Douglas is cancelled, continues tomorrow here at nine.
44:12Next, it's who wants to be a millionaire,
44:14Next, it's who wants to be a millionaire,
