00:00I'm sorry, love, but I can't pretend this whole journey's been easy.
00:03I just wanted today to be an escape.
00:06Why so desperate to hang out with Lexi now?
00:08Because of you!
00:09What?
00:10I would never.
00:11So what? You're gonna watch it every minute of the day?
00:14What's that?
00:14That money came in last night.
00:16And Freddy Roscoe can hardly be calling the shots from his hospital bed, can he?
00:19Freddy is not blue.
00:21Good looks obviously run in the family.
00:22He fancies me.
00:23Someone is messing with us!
00:25Blue?
00:27They all think that I'm the one that would be a danger to Lexi,
00:30but it's not me they need to be scared of.
00:33Freddy?
00:36Freddy, are you awake? Can you hear me?
00:56Uh, uh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, uh, Miami.
01:26Uh, uh.
01:27I only came for two days of playin',
01:29but every time I come I always wind up stayin'.
01:31This the type of town I could spend a few days in.
01:33Oh, wow.
01:34You look terrible.
01:35What is wrong?
01:37Thanks.
01:38Good morning to you and all.
01:41Miss Burr!
01:43Uh, did Freddy wake up again?
01:44Did he say anything?
01:45I'm sorry, Frankie.
01:46You'll have to wait until visiting hours.
01:49I'm going to Miami.
01:51Welcome to Miami.
01:53Water so clear you can see to the bottom,
01:55but a thousand dollar car's everybody got up.
01:57Ain't no surprise in the ghetto.
01:59Been in the hangover?
02:01I think me and you need to talk about it last night, don't you?
02:04It's a hard-on night on the beach till the break of dawn.
02:06Welcome to Miami.
02:08Party in the city when the heat is on.
02:11I went to see the music, which was me and Rune,
02:13and she was like, he blames me when I try to growl or not.
02:16And why are you outside the hospital?
02:18Um, Darren asked me to check on Freddy.
02:21Oh, she's so fair.
02:22I bet he'd look sexy even in a coma.
02:24Seriously, Vicky?
02:25All right, well, we're headed to the park.
02:27No first day of actual summer and all.
02:29Do you want to come?
02:30I can't.
02:31I promised Darren.
02:33Are you sure you're OK?
02:35Yeah.
02:36Yeah, it's just busier hours.
02:38Well, Lexi's living with us now, so she needs looking after.
02:42Is JJ getting better?
02:44I think so.
02:45You're not going to spend your entire summer
02:47in the hospital minding kids, are you?
02:48I don't have a choice.
02:50Some of us can't just sunbathe and go up at boys all day.
02:54People are actually relying on me.
02:56OK, OK.
02:58We'll see you later then, yeah?
03:00I'm sure Freddy will wake up soon.
03:02Yeah.
03:04All right, come on.
03:05See you later.
03:06Bye.
03:07Bye.
03:16It wasn't my wife I saw in here last night.
03:19Look, I just had a bit too much to drink.
03:21OK, and I've apologised to Rowan.
03:23He doesn't seem that bothered, so...
03:25I'm worried about you.
03:26I've noticed it for a while now.
03:28You seem anxious,
03:29and I know that controlling things is part of your anxiety.
03:32Tony, this has got nothing to do with my OCD.
03:34Ah, morning, campers!
03:35What a beautiful day!
03:37Oh, thanks for coming in.
03:38You know, with the sun cracking the flags
03:40and Scott gone, we're just a little bit short-staffed.
03:42Oh, it gets me out the house.
03:43Anyway, what were chatting about?
03:45Look, Suzanne, can you just go and check the toilets for us, please?
03:48Oh.
03:50Come here.
03:54Listen, if you're self-medicating with alcohol...
03:57Tony, it was my birthday.
03:59I had a glass of wine or two, so what?
04:01It's like you don't know when to stop.
04:03I know. What do you drink?
04:05Hey, what, your Chateau Nerve and your whiskey
04:08and all the pints that your mates buy for you when they come in here?
04:11Yeah, I drink with friends, not alone,
04:12and I don't do it to get through the day.
04:14You hypocrite!
04:15Come on, you make it look like I put out my cornflakes every morning.
04:18I'm not saying that you're an alcoholic.
04:20I've got four kids.
04:21We've got four kids.
04:22Do you know, every minute of the day,
04:24I'm worrying, right, if I'm doing my best,
04:27is Ro happy, can I make his life any easier,
04:30how are Aunt and Dee Dee coping with everything?
04:32Well, you're not alone.
04:33Well, it feels it.
04:35And so what?
04:36Hey, so what if I have a drink at the end of a long day?
04:40I'm such a derby.
04:42Do you know what? I need one to put up with you.
04:47Babe, they seem a little warm.
04:49Are you sure the feed is OK?
04:50They are not warm and they are feeding absolutely fine.
04:53Look, are you OK? I'm worried about you.
04:56You're not sleeping, you're not eating.
04:58I am fine.
04:59Look, I've just been thinking about Cass and McQueen.
05:04When are you thinking about opening it?
05:06You know it's not that easy when the family find out about you.
05:10So just tell them.
05:12Look, I am always going to regret what happened to Hunter
05:15for the rest of my life.
05:17But Cass and McQueen, it's not just for the twins.
05:20It's for the whole family.
05:22The McQueens come as a package and I'm invested in all of them.
05:26Just don't be expecting them to crack out the egg butters, yeah?
05:30Cass and McQueen could be a little goldmine.
05:34Look, just tell them and we'll deal with it together.
05:38I need to get back.
05:40But you're OK, yes?
05:42Yeah, I'm fine.
05:43All right. See you in a bit.
05:46Come on, girls. Let's go.
05:50See you, girls.
06:16HE SIGHS
06:20I totally showed myself again, didn't I?
06:24Do you really mean that?
06:26That the only way to cope with me is by having a drink?
06:29No.
06:30Course not.
06:33I just feel persecuted.
06:36Every day I wake up,
06:37wondering what the world's going to throw at me next.
06:40What other problems our kids will face that I can't handle?
06:43Look, Ro's going through a difficult time right now.
06:46But when he gets what he needs,
06:48when he's more comfortable in his own skin,
06:51all this stress will be worth it.
06:53And how long will that take?
06:55You know, it's going to be two years
06:57before he can even see someone from gender services.
06:59He's just being left to deal with all of this by himself
07:02and we're being left. We're just being abandoned.
07:04Well, we're getting him counselling.
07:07And at least he's in the system now. He's seeing the GP.
07:10He's happy, he's coping, he's not suffering.
07:12He's got to ask his family to look after him.
07:14Tony, you make it sound so easy.
07:18But what happens when the ball does finally start rolling?
07:22Is that why you've been drinking?
07:24Block it all out?
07:27I'm just sick of people thinking they know what's best for us.
07:30Who?
07:31Everyone.
07:32Doctors.
07:34Social media. Neighbours chipping in with the bad advice they get.
07:37Social media. Neighbours chipping in with the bad advice they get.
07:40They're not actually living on our shoes.
07:43What can I do, Diane?
07:45I mean, how can I make things better?
07:47I'll get up with Eva in the morning so you can have a lay-in.
07:50I'll do the kids' homework with them.
07:52Or why don't you go to the salon and pamper yourself?
07:55Glass of wine in one hand.
07:59The next time you feel like reaching for a glass of wine,
08:01why don't you reach for me instead?
08:03I might be all you need.
08:05Oh, maybe you're right.
08:07Maybe I just need to take a bit of time out for myself.
08:11I used to love swimming.
08:13Maybe start going to the baths again.
08:15Less desperate?
08:16Yeah.
08:17Don't need a drink, I just...
08:19just need to be thankful for what I've got.
08:27I'm afraid Freddy didn't say a word.
08:30And he didn't wake up again.
08:32Yeah, but his eyes were open when I was talking to him.
08:35It's not uncommon for people in an induced coma
08:38to open their eyes.
08:40So he didn't hear anything that I was saying?
08:42Well, it's hard to tell what people can and can't hear.
08:48Freddy's very sedated,
08:50but as soon as he shows signs of improvement,
08:53we'll bring him out of the coma,
08:55and you can ask him yourself.
08:58PHONE RINGS
09:00I'm going to stay for Lexi, if I have to.
09:04Oi!
09:05Do you want to get your hands off my husband?
09:07Husband?
09:09Oh, yeah, Grace.
09:10Yeah, more to the point, who are you?
09:12I'm Freddy's niece.
09:15Oh, Frankie.
09:17Sorry, it's just there are a few people
09:19who aren't very fond of him at the moment.
09:22Neither doctor said she were talking to him when his eyes were open.
09:25Don't know what he said, but I gave him a jolt.
09:28Yeah, it was weird.
09:30We were just talking about, well, nothing, really.
09:34Well, I reckon he heard you.
09:38Which gives me hope that he's going to wake up properly.
09:41Yeah.
09:43Yeah, he really needs to wake up.
09:48Hey, come here.
09:51BEEPING
09:54Thank God you were passing by.
09:56Look, I could have died.
09:58The whole barbecue just burst into flames.
10:00It's nothing to do with this lighter fluid, I suppose.
10:03I couldn't decide between chipolatas or spicy dropbursts,
10:07so I got both.
10:10Theresa?
10:11What are you doing?
10:13I said I was going to do the barbecue.
10:16Your girlfriend had a bit of an accident.
10:19How many times have I got to tell you?
10:21You don't put lighter fluid on a barbecue, you silly sausage.
10:25For the record, she's not my girlfriend.
10:28She's my cousin, in case you were interested.
10:32Good to know.
10:33I like the sound of your spicy bratwurst.
10:35Tom might be back later for a nibble.
10:38See you around.
10:41Theresa?
10:43Did you almost set yourself on fire to win a bet?
10:46If you hadn't muscled your way in, I'd have...
10:48You just stop. I need to say something important.
10:52Look, you know I want my girls to have the best of everything.
10:56And that means a solid start in life.
10:59So I've been keeping something from you
11:01and it's time that I tell you the truth.
11:03I opened your delivery.
11:05Cass and McQueen, is that with the bar in the cellar?
11:08Oh, no.
11:10There you all are. What's happening, fam?
11:12What have I missed?
11:14How is Alicante? How's Nana?
11:16She's sound. She sends her love.
11:18Nice to see you home, mate.
11:24Sutter was a brick.
11:26It's creepy, though.
11:28Let him try this on me.
11:31Any leads?
11:33You shouldn't be drinking.
11:35Still could be Freddy.
11:36I've already told you that Freddy is not blue.
11:39You're being paranoid.
11:40So who is it, then?
11:42Whoever this is, is trying to mess with my head.
11:45Breaking into my flat.
11:47Swapping round the pictures.
11:49We're not going to open today.
11:51You can leave.
11:53I want you to come to Tuscany with me next week.
11:55You can bring Mercedes if you want.
11:57I'm going nowhere.
11:59I'm staying right here.
12:00I'm ready for him.
12:03Who's there?
12:05Warren.
12:07There's no-one else here.
12:13Warren.
12:15What's happening to you?
12:32Is anyone going to say anything?
12:35And this is all yours?
12:37Ours.
12:39Ours.
12:41This is Casa McQueen.
12:43How can you afford a cafe?
12:45Well, it came up for sale.
12:47I had a moment of madness, applied for a loan, and I got it.
12:50This is going to make us so much money, guys.
12:53Our very own tapas cafe.
12:56We're going to sell them little green peppers for the lot.
12:58And those cheesy triangle thingies.
13:00Manchego, yeah.
13:01And those chips with everything.
13:02This is going to be like we're living in Alicante every single day.
13:06And you are going to be head waitress.
13:08I'm going to flirt with all punters.
13:09Sally's going to do the books.
13:11And out here, there's going to be parasols and sexy waiters.
13:14Well, Prince is top off.
13:16Oh, Nana's going to love this.
13:18She's been making sangria's in Spain.
13:19I can't believe we've got our own tapas thingy.
13:21Get me in.
13:31You kept this quiet?
13:33I wanted to surprise you all.
13:35Lift your spirits up a bit.
13:38Look like it worked for Prince, even if it is just for a day.
13:41Sure it'll bring the family together?
13:44It will.
13:45You know, this is me mapping out a future for our kids, for all of us.
13:51So come on, crack a smile, be happy.
13:57Long live Casa McQueen.
14:00That's it.
14:02Hey.
14:05Seriously, you've got the latest Combat Raiders Annihilation arm?
14:08Yeah, he bought it for me.
14:09I've asked my dad loads for that game, but he said it's too graphic.
14:13Bet he'd buy it for Ro though.
14:14What do you mean?
14:16She's getting all the attention, isn't she?
14:17He? And there was no need for what you said yesterday.
14:20All that stuff about him being a girl.
14:22What? She told you?
14:23I was only messing. Ro needs to get a sense of humour.
14:27Well, I am right. Your mum and dad are obsessed with her.
14:31They've basically forgotten you exist.
14:33Look, are you coming to play the game or what?
14:35Because I can always ask Abe if he wants to.
14:37I'm coming.
14:38Oh, Frankie was back at the hospital bright and early this morning.
14:43She must think a lot of her Uncle Freddy.
14:45Yeah.
14:46Do you know, I've no idea what's going on with my kids half the time.
14:49Oh, join the club.
14:51Listen, has Johnny really accused you of having a drinking problem?
14:55Well, I have. I have been a bit reliant, haven't I?
14:57You run a pub. I've been there. The odd tipple at the end of the day.
15:00Nothing wrong with that, as long as it's only one or two.
15:03Yeah. Yeah, that's all it is, mostly.
15:06People are so judgmental.
15:08Do you know, they've got me pegged as being a bad mum.
15:10Mine turned out fine.
15:12Yeah, it's OK to enjoy your little drink, isn't it?
15:14You know, when I enjoy it, it relaxes me.
15:16Of course it is. You're an adult.
15:18And you've got a lot going on, what with Ro wanting to be...
15:21Be a boy.
15:22Be a boy.
15:23Line field, isn't it?
15:24But you are a great mum, and you work hard.
15:27Nobody should begrudge you having the odd glass of wine.
15:30Yeah, you're right.
15:31But I promised Tony that I'd try.
15:33And do you know what? I just want to prove to myself that I can.
15:36I can have an alcohol-free day.
15:43Are you feeling any better?
15:45Yeah. I just can't believe I bawled my eyes out.
15:48Hey, there's no shame in that.
15:50I promise I won't tell us all.
15:52I mean, I don't know what I'm going to do if Freddie doesn't wake up.
15:55Yeah. I just feel bad for Lexie.
15:58I mean, she really needs a dad.
16:00Could she stay with you for a bit?
16:03I really wish she could, but there's no room at Cindy's.
16:06I can't even have my own son with me. Curtis is still in care.
16:09I am desperate for him to come home,
16:11but sometimes we've got to do what's right
16:13and not what's best for ourselves.
16:15Yeah, I know.
16:17You remind me a bit of me.
16:19You're a tough little cookie.
16:21Freddie is lucky to have you looking out for him.
16:25Here. Thanks for taking that to Lexie.
16:27Yeah, no problem.
16:33Any news on Blue?
16:35In case you haven't noticed, my husband is in a coma,
16:37so I'm a little bit preoccupied.
16:39Look, Warren is spiralling out of control.
16:41He's extremely volatile, which makes him dangerous.
16:44I don't care.
16:46He should, because he still thinks it could be Freddie.
16:49And if that stays in his mind, festering,
16:51then nothing and no-one will stop him.
16:54We have to find out who Blue Reddy is.
17:12Get me by the menu.
17:17Looks good in there.
17:19Want to christen the voyage with me?
17:21I'm in recovery.
17:23Zero per cent.
17:25Yeah, go on, then.
17:27Do you really think I can make her go this place?
17:29I think you can do anything you put your mind to.
17:32Look, I'm proud of you, you know.
17:34You've given the family a job,
17:37an income, security.
17:39You've done it all by yourself.
17:42Oh, no.
17:44What's up?
17:45What does manana mean?
17:47Er, tomorrow. Why?
17:49I've just posted this to about 10 million followers.
17:52I thought it meant welcome, sexy men.
17:54Theresa, have you just told the whole world that we open tomorrow?
17:57What are we supposed to do? Cos we're clearly not ready.
18:00Oh, this is nice, isn't it?
18:02Bit of family time.
18:04I don't need to have my tea at Arlo's.
18:06Why does Dee Dee get to miss us and I can't?
18:08Cos she is at a karate lesson.
18:10Hey, listen, you two.
18:12I'm so sorry about yesterday.
18:14Like, I am mortified that I ruined the party
18:17and I didn't mean to embarrass you both.
18:20And the present that you got me was really thoughtful.
18:23And I'm really trying to change.
18:25Come on, kids, give your mum a break.
18:29It was sort of funny seeing everyone's faces when you wrapped up drunk.
18:34Anyway, to make up for it,
18:36we have got you this.
18:39Cool.
18:40Well, your old one's as flat as a pancake.
18:42And I've been thinking, now you're on the courts,
18:44maybe you need a little nickname. How about The Hutch?
18:46Oh, what?
18:47So you won't get me a video game, but you'll get Ro a basketball.
18:50That's exercise. It's a hobby.
18:52And don't worry, I'm sure Ro will let you have a little bounce.
18:54Come on, you. You can help me load the dishwasher.
18:57Listen, I went for a swim earlier
19:00and I found this on the news report.
19:03It's an online forum.
19:04I might not have all the answers,
19:06It's an online forum.
19:07I might not have all the answers that you need,
19:09but you could make some new friends.
19:12Might help you feel like you're not on your own.
19:16Thanks, Mum.
19:17So after we clean up, how about I help you set up your account?
19:23Got your favourite? Ham, pineapple?
19:25Anchovies.
19:27I might need cheering up.
19:28Amazing.
19:29I'm starving.
19:30So how's Freddy?
19:32Erm, still asleep.
19:35Look, I was a right cow earlier, I'm sorry.
19:38Oh, it's forgotten.
19:39Your family's more chaotic than mine is at the minute anyways.
19:42We can't be grimmer all the time.
19:43Plus it's summer.
19:44We need to be partying hard before you ditch us for dance school.
19:48Erm, yeah.
19:49I actually might not go.
19:51What?
19:52Why?
19:53Because what if Freddy doesn't wake up from the coma?
19:56Then someone's got to look after Lexi.
19:58Yeah, but there's like loads of people at the house.
20:00Like your mum, JJ.
20:02Right.
20:03And Lexi needs me.
20:04I can't let her down.
20:05I have to stay here and make sure she's okay.
20:09God, either I think.
20:13Anyway, erm...
20:16Hey.
20:17There's a programme about Roman sewers on at ten o'clock,
20:20so I'm thinking a nice bath and then under the duvet on the couch.
