00:00Wake up little Ella, wake up. I am awake. No, like the song, you know, last night we
00:12fell asleep. Fully clothed. Exactly, yeah. But what we gonna tell? Tell? There's nothing
00:19to tell. Well, except we did kiss. Right. Bit of a shock that. But we should have seen
00:25it coming. Really? Yeah, we're full of the feels from making up. Now we can start over
00:31from scratch. Oh, you wanna start over? Of course. I'll see you later. I'm really glad
00:38we worked things out. Last night was pretty perfect. Pretty perfect. Oh, bacon butty and
00:55some of that coffee that you like. Smells like guilt. It's more like relief that my
01:00wife's home. I did miss you sleeping at the side of me last night. And all the other nights.
01:08Me too. I'm back home. Not back in your bed. We've a way to go yet. I will do everything
01:16in my power to make that happen. Things will be better now. Now we're free of Rose.
01:26Morning. Is Rose Jackson here? No. What's she done now? Left her handbag by the side
01:38of the road. Have you seen her? You gave some pointers to Samson, yeah? Yeah, I'll need
01:45a lot more if he's gonna last inside. No, you're all heart. Morning. Um, Chas, I don't
01:51suppose you've got any spare shifts going? Why are you turning and cutting your hours
01:54out of it? You're not after everything that's happened. I can't stay on there. Well, I would,
01:59but Samson's doing any spare hours that we've got going at the moment. And I can't imagine
02:04you wanna work with her anyway. Well, that's easy fix. Fire Samson the thug. Hire Mattie
02:09as victim. Mum, don't. She has got a point. I don't need you sticking your nose into her.
02:14Mum, it's all right. It's plea hearings Tuesday. Sentencing will probably be a few weeks after
02:19that, and if he gets sent down... When? Not if, Chas. Any of his hours will be yours,
02:24if you still want them. Can do with the next pair of hands at the garage. Oh, yeah. Let
02:31me just dust off my trained mechanic's certificate. Might just be a bit of tidying up, some towing.
02:36Anything else that needs sorting? Thanks, Kate. I really appreciate it, but I know you've
02:40already got Sarah for all that. Mum, got anything going at your place? You hate grafting
02:46at the farm. Loved it as a kid, didn't I? Much prefer working with sheep than people
02:50nowadays. Yeah. Well, it's your job if you want it, son. Whatever you need. Thank you.
02:56Best go and tell Gabby I quit. Mattie, me helping Samson isn't about you. I just don't
03:03want it meeting alive inside. Yeah. Me neither, mate. Wouldn't wish that on anyone. What,
03:08not even Josh? Nah. I don't want him hurt. Just stop before he does it again, or worse.
03:14That's not gonna happen, is it? Nope. Thanks to Samson. I won't apologise for helping my
03:21nephew protect himself. Wasn't always a bad kid. Well, he is now. Or he'd have told the
03:26police about his psychopath. Face it, Cain, he's a nasty piece of work, and you are helping
03:32him. Yes, she lost it after a heavy night in a pub. Well, a few pubs, and not for the
03:39first time. Did she report it? No, she, um, she didn't think police would prioritise it.
03:46I may as well consider it prioritised. Even though it's just a few lipsticks a child's
03:51drawing and an old hospital letter. When are you expecting her home? Oh, er... She's gone
03:57to the hospital. Dawn had to stay overnight again with her son, so, er, well, could be
04:03back any minute. Why don't you leave the bag with us, and we'll make sure she gets it?
04:08Great. Sign here, will ya? Er, do you think you could sign, love? You took the bag, darling.
04:15You need to sign for it. Sure. If Rose is missing anything, tell her she will need to
04:21file a report. Yeah. Thanks, Constable. You've gone above and beyond. I'll see myself out.
04:27Do you care to explain this? Do you? What's with all this posh stuff? Dust in bags. I
04:39just want some proper tea. Is there anything I can help you with? I can think of a few
04:43things. I, er, I only meant the tea. Leave the lad alone, Ruby. She's just my single
04:52So, erm, I've just had an update from the police about a fire. They definitely think
04:58it's most likely to be arson. Any idea who? Yeah, they've got an idea. Who? Me. They've
05:05accused you? Well, they didn't have to, did they? You know they've been sus from the off
05:09because they upped the insurance right before the firm burnt down. Well, that's a coincidence,
05:12that's not evidence. Yeah, but it's still enough for them to fit it on me. Which they
05:15will, unless we can figure out who's actually to blame. Yeah, next Tuesday. Yeah, me too.
05:23Thanks, Bill. Alright, Samson? I hear you're in court next week. What about it? I just
05:30wanted to wish you the best of luck. I got everything crossed for you. Cheers. Is that
05:35Belle you were talking to, by the way, is she alright? Does she need anything? If she
05:37wants you to know, she'll tell you herself. Samson's right. You're siding with him. The
05:45lad facing prison. I'm siding with common sense. Keep giving Belle space, as long as
05:51she needs it. Siding with common sense? That's a first time for you, isn't it? Don't tell
05:56anyone. Oh, they won't believe me anyway. Someone had enough of your lip? Oh, like this?
06:16Looks quite good, doesn't it? Crazy boy's weekend. Could say I got smashed getting smashed.
06:20You should have come. I told you to stay clear. And I did. For a bit, go me. Woo! Anyway,
06:26let's go and get drunk. Do one. Oh, come on. Don't be so boring. You do know I'm facing
06:31prison. I've got my plea here and it's next week. Yeah, I know. Which is why I wanted
06:35to give you a proper knees up. But you are keeping my name out of it, aren't you? Cos
06:39I don't like nasty surprises. There's no point of us both going down. Good. That's great.
06:45That's brilliant. Cos you know what I'm capable of, don't you? Actually, you don't. You've
06:51got no idea what I'm capable of. And that's what's exciting. Good luck, mate.
07:06Hello, Cinders. Mandy, putting you to work again. I like to help out here and there.
07:16Are you an ex-client? She's just ducked out. No, I've come to invite you to dinner. Why?
07:24And what's with the flowers? Well, they're freshly cut from the allotment to mark our
07:29fresh start and, well, a first date. Another one, so it's our second first date. Liam,
07:34what are you doing? I just want to do right by you this time. I want to pull out all the
07:42stops because I owe you that. I know I've said some terrible things in the past, like
07:46you're the last person I'd want, but I want to get past all of that and give you everything.
07:53Even... even me. You can bog off, too. Sorry, did I do something wrong? Other than being
08:04a patronising git. I'm the last person you'd want, but you're willing to get past it because
08:08you owe me. I'm spooning here. No, no, I'm mucking this up. This is supposed to be part
08:13of our starting over, like you said. Starting over. As friends. Friends, but you said last
08:19night was pretty perfect. Perfect closure. A perfect ending. To us. Your drive yesterday,
08:28where did you go? Around. Oh, where exactly? Why? Why won't you say? Cos it was just a
08:36drive, like here and there. Did you see anyone? Did you see Rose? Did you? I was here. Yeah,
08:43when I got home, I know you went out before that. Where? Why are you deflecting, Will?
08:49Why are you? I'm not. Why did you lie to Swirling about Rose losing a bag on a bender? What
08:56was the point? To protect you. From what? From whatever you did. Me? I'm not the one
09:01who went AWOL and returned with near-broken knuckles. Dad? Oh. Hi, I didn't know you
09:12were here. I'm home. For good. Cos Mum's gone. That's not why. Well, you do know she's
09:19gone, right? She left me a voicemail. Something about not being cut out to be a mother. Which
09:24makes no sense. Cos she was great while she was here. She loved being a granny. I thought
09:30she loved being a mum, too. Oh, she didn't go through with it? No, love. She's gone.
09:36Well, why's the bag here? PC Swirling dropped it off earlier. There was some kind of brawl
09:41at a pub near the airport and she left it. Well, is a person there? No. Her passport?
09:48Sorry. Like he said, she's gone. So what have you done now?
10:12You just couldn't help yourself, could you? So what did you do? Pay her off? Kim did nothing.
10:18Oh, come off it, Dad. She has tried everything to see her off. Drugs. Threats. So go on,
10:26how did you finally break her? I did nothing. I swear. On what, Kim? Cos nothing is sacred
10:32to you. Dawn, stop. Kim was nowhere near it was me. Look, Rose left because I found her
10:39trying to break into the safe. I confronted her and she fled. Next thing I know, Swirling's
10:45here with her bag, banging on about cautioning her cos of her brawl. Her room? Cleared out.
10:53So you're saying she planned it. She tried to rob you and she planned to go. Sounds that
10:58way. Well, you drove her to it. You did everything to get rid of her. I mean, you even tried
11:04to spike her and ended up drugging me. No, Dawn. It was Rose who spiked your drink. You're
11:11lying. Why would she do that? Well, when I caught her red-handed, I gave her the chance
11:15to walk away with some cash. But only if she told me the truth. She said that she did it
11:23to try and put a wedge between me and Kim. And she succeeded. No, she cared about us
11:30and the kids. She wanted us in her life. She wouldn't be so cruel. Don't waste another
11:37tear on that woman. I really believed her. You're better off without her. We all are.
11:54How did I get this so wrong again? So we kissed? Goodbye. We kissed goodbye. We did.
12:03We did. And I thought you got the wrong end of the stick. But you didn't. So we're both
12:10on the same page. Great. Why didn't you just set me straight? Because I'd messed you around
12:14so badly. I'd been so cruel. Unforgivably so. So you decided to date me out of guilt?
12:21Not exactly. I told you that I didn't want you to be happy, but I do. So when it seemed
12:28like you wanted me in order to be happy, I thought I'd be a stand-up guy.
12:36You are not the catch you think you are, Dr. Romance. Yes, you have been unforgivably cruel.
12:41But I forgave you, even though I know you'll always be clouded by my past. And you were
12:46gonna lead me on? Again? That's not kindness, it's cowardice. I'm so sorry. You always are.
12:55Just follow your flowers and chuck yourself out. Of course. And Liam, I will get my happy
13:05again. And not because I'm old, or someone takes pity. But because I deserve it.
13:15That'll be £24.60, please, mate. When you're ready.
13:30Hello? Tom? Sorry, mate, what's up? You, er, you gonna pay for this or just keep me hanging?
13:38All right, mate. Peek out at this. Sorry, man, I'm only messing with you. Yeah, today's
13:45definitely the day for it. Tom, there! You fancy a cheeky pint? Er, where? The pub.
13:55Full of Belle's family, no tar. You all right? What, apart from the breakdown of my marriage?
14:00Nicola's left me for good in the past. And I've left her, but we always found a way back
14:06to each other, because on the day that we made our vows, the love was there. Just like
14:13it was for you and Belle. We vowed to be together forever, till death do us part. And you might
14:20still be, but it has to be on her terms and in her time. You need to give her as much
14:26space as she wants. You get that? I do. I know exactly what I need to do.
14:36Shouldn't have. No, you're right. I shouldn't have. You can bin them.
14:48Oh, well, thought you'd be a bit more cheerful. Heard that Ella did the walk of shame from
14:52yours this morning. Oh, she had nothing to be ashamed of. Yeah, just my clumsy way of
14:56asking if you two are back on track. Nope. Nope, not now, and not ever. I'm sorry. Oh,
15:03don't be. Don't be, it's a good thing, because I bungled it so badly that I have no right
15:10and good conscience to anything resembling a relationship ever again.
15:13Hiya. Chas, would I be able to clock off early tonight? More fight club. What was Josh on
15:24about earlier? What, Josh was back again? Right, it was nothing. Didn't look like nothing.
15:29Did he get over? No, he's long gone. What did he want? Is he coming back? No. Well,
15:33how do you know? Oh, come on, Samson, the least you can do is fess up about why he was
15:37here. Right, he was just checking. I was keeping his name out of it still. That's all.
15:42It was no big deal. No big deal? I just threw my job in, mate, because I feel sick every
15:48time I go back in there. I know that if he'd have had the chance, he'd have done worse.
15:53No, all right, you're all clear of him now. He was just here. He seems the type to bear
15:57grudges, come at me when I least expect it. He won't. And you can swear to that, can you?
16:03Even if he doesn't, mate, I'm gonna keep looking over my shoulder now, aren't I? I thought
16:07I was safe in this village, to be me, but thanks to you, he's free to come here whenever
16:11he wants. You're me. Right, he's not my mate. Not anymore. You're still protecting him now,
16:17aren't you? I'm no snitch. And as if you'd be OK me dobbing to the police. Aren't you?
16:23I'm not OK with you letting that scum off scot-free, though. Are you?
16:32You really cleared it out. Forget her. You must have hated me for getting it wrong about
16:39spiking my drink. I was awful. It's done. She's gone. For how long? For good. Hopefully.
16:50All you need to worry about now are those kids of yours. You and me. Well, we've got
16:56time to fix things. Thank you, Kim. Things have worked out well for you. Well, that woman
17:11turned you against me. Now, Dawn, I understand, but you? You know me better. And now you're
17:17accusing me of getting rid of her altogether. Because I do know you, Kim. I know you like
17:24your revenge. Not when I've already won. Rose was gone. And no way do I not forgive
17:31her for spiking that drink. Only one way to make sure that she doesn't have the chance.
17:37I know what you're doing. Making me defend myself so as I don't have time to doubt you.
17:42Well, I do doubt you, Will. You've bruises on your knuckles. How many times? I hit the
17:49kitchen worktop. You have been stacking lie upon lie. Not even bothering to keep them
17:55consistent. Because I was panicking. Obviously. Why? To cover up for you for what you've done.
18:00Deflecting again. Why would I want to hurt Rose? Because something happened between you.
18:06No. Liar. We didn't do anything. But you're willing to believe that I would kill someone
18:11over a secret fling? Yes. Because that would mean the end of us. And you know that.
18:26How about Nate? I mean, if anyone's got a reason to come after me, it's him.
18:30Sure. He's a hater. Got a load of them. A lifetime's worth.
18:35Oh, cheers. What you gonna do? Chase after everyone you've
18:40ever wronged, or he's wronged you. Yeah, if that's what it takes.
18:43Why waste your time? Because I'm on the hook for arson. I could go to prison.
18:48Sorry, what don't you get here? They have to prove it first, and they can't.
18:52Well, you seem pretty certain about that. What, do you know something that I don't?
18:55No. It's just, it's doing my head in, not knowing who came after me. And if they're
19:01coming again? Caleb, this is a blip. A blip? Yeah. Someone lashed out. They are long gone
19:12by now. The police have no idea who they are. None of us do. There's no point trying to
19:18figure it out. Right. So what are we meant to do? We crack on, knowing that we're innocent,
19:23and the police have no way of proving otherwise. So we just crack on? Yeah. It's all we can
19:28do. Drink your wine. We're good. Matthew mentioned that you had his back earlier.
19:50I'll always have your back. Even if we don't agree with how that looks. I'll always do
19:57right by us.
20:26Right. I didn't touch Rose. Do you believe me? I didn't touch Rose. Do you believe me?
20:33Does it matter? All that matters is that Dawn can't find out just how cruel Rose's intentions
20:38were. She already has an inkling. Yeah, but any more details and it'll just open a whole
20:43can of worms. So we keep lying? I am sick of the lies, Will. Do you want this to work
20:51Yes. Right then. I choose to believe that you didn't have anything to do with Rose's
20:56disappearance. Do you believe me? Did you cheat on me with Rose? No. Then I choose to
21:06trust you. But we need to get our story straight. And, Will, don't make me regret it. As you
21:16know, I don't do well with disappointment.
