00:00Hey Piper, you having a good walk? Got some good snips. No more escaping, eh, up?
00:21She's not had a chance.
00:23What, you miss Lydia making croissants for breakfast? Those tin ones always blow my mind.
00:28Is that what you want to talk about? Piper's walking like you've had food breakfast?
00:33No. Look, I feel terrible. I was overthinking and I guess reading too much into things. I shouldn't have said it, and I'm sorry.
00:46Me too. I was just really embarrassed. I feel like everyone's judging me.
00:52You've done nothing wrong.
00:53What, lying about having a miscarriage?
00:55And that's no one's business, Belle. Look, I'm still worried about you, the way he's been treating you.
01:00This isn't all on him. We both say stuff that we didn't mean. We get angry. But it's done now, isn't it?
01:08And Tom's not in a great place, so I just don't want to stir things up. But thank you for looking out for me.
01:14Friends?
01:15Course we are. Come here. Just leave me to deal with Tom, though, yeah?
01:21Yeah.
01:26DARE I ASK?
01:35It's just arrived. A little treat for the kids. If we're not allowed to take them to the seaside, then we'll bring the seaside to them.
01:43It's a candy floss machine.
01:45What's wrong with that?
01:47We can make them more mocktails, pretend we're living it up on the Costa Blanca.
01:52It's a nice idea, but Billy and Dawn have got a whole Hollywood day planned. Save that for another time.
01:58How come you're in a mood?
02:00I'm not. I just don't want any more problems.
02:02Nothing to do with you and Kim? I don't want to pry, I don't want to get involved, but I can see how stressed it's making you.
02:10I just don't get it, what it is she's doing. Hold up at the B&B like some kind of martyr. It's not how she operates.
02:18You make it sound like some sort of game.
02:20I'm not sure what it is. Maybe I just need a break from here. You fancy a walk?
02:26Will it stop you stressing about Kim?
02:28Probably not, but we can give it a go. Once we've hidden this, obviously.
02:37We were going to come and see you later. We heard what happened in the pub.
02:44I don't mean making a fool of myself, telling everyone our business.
02:46That's not what anyone's saying, not as far as I can make out. I wish you'd told me and Jimmy about the abortion.
02:53I didn't know myself, not until we went away.
02:56Is that why you came home early?
03:00She left me.
03:06I still can't believe it. I mean, how could she end things like that? Our marriage? Our baby?
03:12I just wanted to be her dad. And now her and Vinnie.
03:16Vinnie? What about her and Vinnie?
03:18I don't know. Maybe I'm seeing things that aren't there.
03:20But she only married you two minutes ago. I always knew you were too good for her.
03:23But I still love her. Maybe I've got it wrong. Maybe we've still got a chance.
03:27Oh, love.
03:30You must think I'm pathetic.
03:32Of course not.
03:35I guess I'm just... I'm just lonely. Rattling round that house with too much time, I think.
03:41Hey, you know you're always welcome here.
03:44Thank you, but you don't need me moping about.
03:46Tom, you're family. You don't have to do this by yourself. We want to help.
03:51Are you sure? I mean, I did think about asking, only I'm worried it'd be too cheeky.
03:57But I swear it wouldn't be for long. Only a few weeks, if that. And, you know, I'd pay my way, help with the kids.
04:04Oh, that's not...
04:08Not a problem. No problem at all.
04:11Though it can get a bit crowded. And noisy. Queuing for the bathroom, that kind of thing.
04:18Sounds perfect.
04:20Thank you, Nicola.
04:22You don't think that Uncle Jimmy wouldn't mind, do you?
04:25What do you think?
04:28You know, I was thinking, I might ask Belle if she wants to move back in a while.
04:34You know, give us both the chance to have a proper reset, see how we really feel.
04:37Well, is that a good idea? What if it doesn't work out?
04:41Well, then I guess I'll have to walk away. But at least I would have done everything I can.
04:48Look, Tom, I'm really sorry, but I need to get to the cafe. I promised Brenda I'd cover for a bit.
04:54Eric's got an appointment with his Parkinson's nurse.
04:59Are you going to be OK?
05:04Yeah.
05:18Decaf. Not that it's any of your business.
05:22Um, I made an appointment for the scan.
05:26I managed to pull a few strings at the hospital.
05:29And were meant to be impressed.
05:31Still waiting to hear back from the other clinic about the paternity test.
05:34I'm not sure I even want any of this.
05:37I'm not going to force you, obviously, but it would be good to get some answers.
05:42Except I don't need any. Because I know the baby's real and it's yours.
05:47OK, for me, then.
05:50I appreciate the fact...
05:52No, Brenda was in the flat. I said I'd step in until you got here.
05:55Thought you said you didn't want to wait for me.
05:57I'm not. I'm working for Brenda.
05:59What's that all about?
06:01Oh, Nicola, I don't know.
06:03It's half the job, keeping up with the local news.
06:05I promise it's safe.
06:07I wouldn't ask you to do something that wasn't.
06:11Great. I'll pick you up tomorrow lunchtime.
06:14Tomorrow?
06:16The sooner we know, the sooner we can both move on with our lives. Please.
06:20OK, fine. If I'll shut you up.
06:30BIRDS CHIRP
06:50Nice car.
06:52Goes with a nice gaff.
06:56Let's skip the small talk.
06:59Fine by me. What you having?
07:02A name.
07:04I want to know who put you up to all this.
07:07The thing is, I'm a man of my word.
07:10How does two grand sound?
07:12Sounds like you're clueless, darling.
07:16I was paid to do the deal and keep quiet.
07:19It was a lot more than that.
07:22Ten.
07:24And I know it wasn't Rose.
07:29Like I said, man of my word.
07:47She lied about the miscarriage.
07:49He's in a right state.
07:51Poor Tom.
07:53Do you really think her and Vinnie are having an affair?
07:56Who knows?
07:58Might explain the abortion.
08:00He can stop at ours, but he'll need to find somewhere else before Angel's released.
08:04Oh, hey, this must be really exciting.
08:07I'm relieved.
08:09She's been head down, staying out of trouble, or they'd still be months to wait.
08:12It's going to be great. I tell you what, I don't know how you've coped.
08:15It's only been a couple of days without Archie in that house,
08:18and it's just felt so, so empty.
08:21You can have Tom, if you like.
08:24How are things with you and Jay?
08:26Did Wish's memorial go OK?
08:28Do you know what? It was actually really moving.
08:32And then I went and ruined it
08:34and told Jay that I'd got a solicitor for our divorce.
08:37Ouch.
08:38I know, there's never a good time, is there?
08:40But at least it'll help him come to terms with things, I think.
08:46Shouldn't you be at work by now?
08:48No, I'm on reduced hours. Gabby knows all about it.
08:52How's Archie?
08:54Same as the last time you asked.
08:56Which is fine, by the way, in case you do actually care.
08:59Just want to keep stable.
09:01I'm not the one who got the solicitors involved.
09:04On our anniversary.
09:06A year to the day that my dad died.
09:16Sorry.
09:18Back to Liam.
09:19Oh, no, you don't already know.
09:21It's just his flaming paternity test.
09:23He's acting like it's the most normal thing in the world.
09:26Yeah, but if it shuts him up a bit...
09:28That's what I thought, but it doesn't mean I'm happy about it.
09:32Hey, I don't suppose you're free to come along instead?
09:35Tomorrow dinner time?
09:37I've got a full head tent and blow away booked in.
09:40There must be someone else here.
09:42Yeah, sure.
09:46Yeah, I mean, between you and me,
09:48I'm not devastated what with Bill's problems,
09:50but he is.
09:52So I want something special enough to show we care
09:54without making it feel like a celebration.
09:56I've honestly no idea.
09:58I mean, I always go straight to cake.
10:00Although you are in luck,
10:02cos Caleb fancies himself as a bit of a foodie,
10:04and he is an expert in messy break-ups.
10:08You what?
10:10Tom and Bill split.
10:12I'm trying to cheer him up.
10:14It's nice of Kate to let me know.
10:16Thought you'd been off somewhere on a fancy holiday.
10:18I'm still at the end of a phone, aren't I?
10:20Someone sounded a bit jealous there.
10:22Of you and Ruby?
10:24Where'd you go? Anywhere nice?
10:26Yeah, it was lovely. Bali.
10:28Beautiful hotel right on the beach.
10:30Thanks.
10:32Hey, Tom will be fine.
10:34Pizza and a bucket of wine will help.
10:36Hey.
10:38Just heard about you and Tom.
10:40How you doing?
10:42I don't want to talk about it.
10:48Depends what you and Vinnie have been getting up to.
10:52Just these, please.
10:543.98, please.
10:56Oh.
10:58Sorry, I think it's declined.
11:00No, it can't be.
11:04Try putting your card in, if you want.
11:06Actually, it's the wrong card.
11:08I'll come back later.
11:14Hiya, love.
11:16Hey, what's the matter?
11:18Nothing, just wrong bank card.
11:20That's not worth getting in a state about.
11:22No, I know, I'm being stupid.
11:24Belle?
11:28Is she okay?
11:30I wish I knew.
11:32I hate seeing her so upset.
11:34Yeah, you and me both.
11:36I best go after her.
11:38Well, I can go.
11:40If she tells me to back off, then I'll back off.
11:42But it's been a really tough time.
11:44Well, I want to be a part of that.
11:48Okay, love.
12:06I know things aren't easy for you, Tom,
12:08but you can't keep taking time off without any warning.
12:10Call me back when you get this.
12:12Oh.
12:14Good job we don't do vet of the week.
12:18Can you pull up this week's appointments?
12:20I'm going to have to re-jig things.
12:22Yeah, sure.
12:24I'll be with you in a sec.
12:32Hey.
12:34You okay?
12:36I just need a bit of air.
12:38The joys of early pregnancy, eh?
12:40Don't worry about that.
12:42I hate to mess you about, but I've got a scan tomorrow.
12:44I'm sorry for the short notice.
12:46Oh, that's great. You must be dead excited.
12:48Yeah, it's just with Tom not turning up.
12:50It's not the same thing.
12:54Just a bit of cramp.
12:56Yeah, maybe, but you'd better get it checked out.
12:58I don't want to cause any bother.
13:00Well, it's only over the road.
13:02I'm sure I can cope on my own for a bit.
13:06On second thoughts,
13:10I'm coming with you.
13:12No arguments.
13:18Belle, can we talk?
13:20Belle!
13:22I can't even feed Piper now. Is that what you want?
13:24Of course not.
13:26Look, just tell me what's happened.
13:28There was no money in the joint account.
13:30I didn't think we'd still be using it.
13:32If you need money...
13:34No.
13:36No, she can share a few with Chip and Monty.
13:38I can't take anything from you.
13:40All right, well, if you're sure, but we still need to talk.
13:44Look,
13:46I'm moving in with Jimmy and Nicola.
13:48I think it'd be safer than being on my own.
13:50OK, yeah.
13:52It's a good idea.
13:54It means our place will be sat empty,
13:56which seems a shame.
13:58It's better than you hurting yourself.
14:00Or worse.
14:04Look, I would love it
14:06if you didn't move in there.
14:08Rent's already been paid, six months in advance.
14:10No, we're good where we are.
14:12You and Piper would have your own space again,
14:14and you'd still be close to your family.
14:16A chance for you both
14:18to...
14:20get back onto your paws.
14:26Why don't I buy you a coffee while you think about it?
14:32I think she's just a bit overwhelmed
14:34with the maternity test and the scan, you know.
14:36She asked me if I'd go with her.
14:38And are you?
14:40I would if I could, but...
14:42She certainly knows how to get everyone's attention, doesn't she?
14:44Think she got pregnant to annoy you?
14:46I've no idea, Mandy, because I've no idea if it's mine.
14:48She's not going to lie about something like that, is she?
14:50She has done nothing else since she turned up.
14:52Liam, I know you're in your head, right,
14:54and I get it, I really do, right,
14:56but just think about what it's like for her.
14:58Oh.
15:02See, all I want is a bit of certainty.
15:06Oh, thank God.
15:08Why, it's a surgery show.
15:10Well, it's lunchtime, so...
15:12Are you OK? What's happened?
15:14Is it the baby? Do you need to go to hospital?
15:16No, it's no, just a bit of cramp.
15:18OK, well, then you really should go to hospital.
15:20I said no.
15:22OK, look, when did it start?
15:24I don't know, about an hour ago, but it's really not that bad.
15:26Well, I'll take it from here.
15:28Right, well, let me know how you're doing, and do not worry about work.
15:44Do you want a hot front shop?
15:46Why, what's Lydia said?
15:48I haven't seen her.
15:50OK, sorry.
15:52Just...
15:54I didn't understand earlier, but we're fine.
15:56You should go.
15:58Vinnie...
16:00Well, I ain't much of a friend if I don't make sure you're OK.
16:02I already told you I'm fine.
16:04It's just...
16:06Tom was watching us earlier, and it creeped me out.
16:08What are you on about?
16:10We weren't even doing anything.
16:12No, I know, it's just... it's weird, innit?
16:14Are you being paranoid?
16:16He's actually trying to make things better for me right now.
16:18You're not getting back with him, are you?
16:20No.
16:22I'll send it to you later, OK?
16:28Oh.
16:30You're not joining us?
16:34He is definitely into you.
16:36He's just a mate.
16:38Am I allowed to ask?
16:40Of course.
16:42Sorry, it was just a stupid joke.
16:46So, about the house...
16:48I'm not sure.
16:50We'd need a lot of ground rules.
16:52Have as many as you like.
16:54So, is that a yes?
16:58How you doing?
17:00Bob's coffee hasn't improved.
17:02Well, there's a decent cup for you down at Home Farm.
17:04I'll stick to the wine.
17:08Well, they seem to be getting on better.
17:10Amazing what a conversation can do.
17:12Very subtle.
17:14I thought you were going to sort this out.
17:16Can't you at least try and talk to Will?
17:18Seems daft you've been down here.
17:20Yeah, well...
17:22It shouldn't be for much longer.
17:24I had a very interesting meeting earlier.
17:26Seems someone has paid a lot of money to screw me over.
17:30Why would someone want to do that?
17:32The real question is who.
17:36I can only come up with one answer.
17:38Caleb?
17:40He's rich enough.
17:42Obsessed enough.
17:44Obsessed?
17:46Yeah, with getting revenge.
17:48But I've got a big surprise planned for him.
17:58So, have you got any bleeding or spotting?
18:00And the pain?
18:02Standard issue.
18:04Period.
18:06Between one and ten?
18:08Four.
18:10Sometimes five.
18:12But it's stopped now anyway.
18:14I mean, cramps are fairly common,
18:16so it's nothing to worry about.
18:18But, er...
18:20I'm happy to drive you to Horton General
18:22if you want to be certain.
18:24I'm just going to go and have a rest for a while.
18:26In the salon?
18:28It's not actually in the salon.
18:30Yeah, I know, but, er...
18:32I mean, you can't be sleeping properly.
18:34Better than in my car.
18:36Ex-car.
18:38Anyway, I'm not going to start complaining.
18:40It's really good of Mandy to let me stay there.
18:42It's just how she is, isn't it?
18:44Still, it's not ideal,
18:46and there's probably lots of chemicals floating about.
18:50None that I've noticed.
18:52Even so...
18:54I'm going to call Bob.
18:56Pay for a room for you.
18:58You really don't have to do that.
19:00I know, but it's for the best.
19:02We can't take any chances.
19:06I can't, as a doctor.
19:08I think we'll both be able to just breathe a lot easier
19:10after this go.
19:16Er, front and back,
19:18and spares.
19:20Do you always like this?
19:24I just want to make sure they're 100%,
19:26and this one isn't.
19:28It seemed OK to me.
19:30Well, can we just get another one cut?
19:32Yeah. Thanks.
19:34You'll have to pick it up from the shop tomorrow.
19:36Oh, no problem.
19:38I'll see you then.
19:46Well, he seemed friendly.
19:48At least he could get it done so quick.
19:52And you don't mind?
19:54The locks?
19:56Of course not.
19:58Whatever makes you feel safe.
20:00This is your home.
20:02Yours and Piper's.
20:05Well, erm...
20:08I'll see you then.
20:22Hang on, hang on.
20:24Sorry, mate.
20:26She wants to keep hold of that key after all.
20:28But we will still have a
20:30decent spare cut.
20:32Either works or it doesn't.
20:34Look, erm...
20:36She gets a bit bad with her nerves.
20:38You know,
20:40twitchy about keys floating around,
20:42everything has to be accounted for.
20:48Obviously, I...
20:52will pay for it.
21:02Yeah.
