00:00Come on. It's really not that bad.
00:29Don't touch me.
00:34I know it looks big and scary at first, but I'm sure you'll love it here.
00:41Jackie? Jackie!
00:53Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:55See? It's not that bad.
00:58This is the last time I didn't get down on his homework! Watch it!
01:02Oh, sorry.
01:04Get off! That's mine!
01:06You must be Jackie Hopper. Hello, I'm Shelley. Thanks, Elaine.
01:11This way.
01:13Could you keep an eye on her for me, please?
01:17The new kid?
01:19Sure, if you make it worth my while.
01:22What do you want?
01:23A big bar of chocolate.
01:26Okay, but only if Jackie's still here tomorrow.
01:30Piece of cake.
01:34Welcome to the home time for God. Come far?
01:38Elaine brought her in the pay-me-bill. Let me guess, did she say, I know it looks big and scary at first?
01:46Been here like this before?
01:51Just going to stand there, then?
01:55You do speak English.
01:59You could take your jacket off if you want.
02:01No, thanks. I'm not staying.
02:05Sorry, it's just...
02:07No, I guess you're right. Better get her fostered right off.
02:11What? I'm not getting fostered.
02:16What's in the tin?
02:18Some crisp fibers.
02:19Some crisps.
02:20Leave it. She doesn't have to tell.
02:22Leave it. She doesn't have to tell.
02:24It's okay. We all knew once.
02:26Let me explain. We're all friends here, and friends share.
02:32Oi, give it back!
02:33Give it back to her, Michael.
02:35Give it back!
02:38Michael!
02:41Is this your idea of a welcome?
02:44In my office, now.
02:46We'll see if I can't find something for you to do.
02:52She's looking after.
02:57So, what's in there? The crown jewels?
03:02Anyway, this is the swamp. Or bathroom, as some people like to call it.
03:05You put your wash bag here, and your toothbrush here, and...
03:12Sorry, I'm not boring you, am I?
03:14It's just, there's no point in staying.
03:17In case you change your mind, I'll show you outside.
03:23Where is she? Did you see her? Where'd she go?
03:25Who?
03:26Jackie, the new girl.
03:27She went that way.
03:29Trust me, if she says she's not staying, believe her.
03:36What's she playing at?
03:38Doesn't like it here, I guess.
03:40But where's she trying to get to?
03:43You always dreamed up some crazy escape, thinking your mum was coming.
04:13You're not meant to put stuff on the table.
04:15Let me move it for you.
04:16She doesn't need you to tear the walls, now, does she?
04:19Probably nothing, can it, but rubbish.
04:20Right, so why do you care, nosy?
04:22She might show Crash.
04:24Crash is her friend. Sticks up for her.
04:26Michael?
04:27What?
04:29I'm just saying, it'd be nice for him to have a friend.
04:31What's wrong with that?
04:32Leave it.
04:33Probably quite lonely, being Crash.
04:35No visitors, no mates.
04:37No chance leaving here, ever.
04:40Easy, easy.
04:42Breathe.
04:44Put the plate down.
04:51Not another word from you for the rest of this meal.
04:55Right, so, now you know why we call him Crash?
04:59Well, I think that's horrible.
05:01I think you're all horrible.
05:04Tracy, that's not yours.
05:22Bet you think I'm a piece as well.
05:24No.
05:26Well, that's a first.
05:28Actually, you're the only one around here that makes any sense so far.
05:31It's the others I don't get.
05:33They're OK.
05:35No-one exactly planned on getting dumped here.
05:38Why don't you just leave?
05:40What, and miss my night to pit the bedtime story?
06:29MUSIC PLAYS
06:41Jackie?
06:43Well, at least you're not a burglar.
06:45I was just getting a glass of water.
06:49Mm-hm.
06:53With your rucksack and trainers?
06:56I can't keep you here. This isn't secure accommodation.
07:00But I'd really like you to stay.
07:03So, are we clear?
07:05Yeah.
07:07No more testing the limits?
07:09No.
07:11Good.
07:13I was a bit iffy at first, but I think I like it here.
07:16Can I have my glass of water now?
07:18Sure.
07:26MUSIC PLAYS
07:49I've told her.
07:51Yeah, I know, you're not staying. Come on.
07:57Now, I don't want to tell you how to do your job.
07:59Good.
08:01But you're doing this all wrong.
08:03So why don't you let me have a word with her?
08:08You think you know it all, don't you?
08:10It was just friendly advice.
08:12Keep it!
08:14Look, I'm just trying to help.
08:16Well, then leave me alone. I don't need friends,
08:18especially not a creep like you.
08:20Ah!
08:22All figured out.
08:24Ah!
08:26All figured out, eh?
08:28How do you do that?
08:30What now?
08:32I have an idea.
08:36Three, four...
08:40Come on, Duke, what's all this about?
08:42You lot don't get enough exercise.
08:44Ha, look at Tug.
08:46It's for the new kid, isn't it?
08:48We just want to make her feel included. It's Tracy's idea.
08:50Ready?
08:52Come on, put some in.
08:54One, two...
08:56Nice one, Tracy.
08:58How many minutes have you got until leader session?
09:00No-one can resist being the boss.
09:02Come on, you lot.
09:04One, two, three...
09:06WHISTLE BLOWS
09:08GO, GO, GO!
09:10GO, GO, GO!
09:12GO, GO, GO!
09:14GO, GO, GO!
09:16GO, GO, GO!
09:18GO, GO, GO!

09:36GO, GO, GO!
09:38GO, GO, GO!
09:40Thank you, Jackie.
09:42I really enjoyed that.
09:44Well, it's not finished yet.
09:46It's time for the Crush Crunchy Race now.
09:48Oh, I'm so tired.
09:50Tell you what, you can sit this one out.
09:52Oh, sorry, Jackie.
10:00Makes it look so easy, doesn't she?
10:02Idiots! She's off again!
10:04Quick, get after her!
10:08At least I get to see what's in her tin.
10:10I need to have her backpack.
10:14Hey! That's mine!
10:16No, it's not. But this is.
10:18Hey!
10:26What kept you?
10:28Might have known it'd be you.
10:30No one's taking me back this time.
10:32I'm not going to try. I just thought you might like this.
10:38I haven't looked in it, honest.
10:40And by the way,
10:42I am not a creep.
10:46Oh.
10:52My grandpa gave it to me.
10:54He got it during the Commonwealth Games after the war.
10:56He won the marathon.
10:58Then they put him in a home.
11:00There's nothing wrong with him.
11:02He's just old.
11:04No one's listening to us.
11:16So he used to look after you?
11:18Oh, now you're trying to run back to him.
11:20Why didn't you tell anyone?
11:22No one asked.
11:24Well, you're doing it all wrong.
11:26What? I told you I don't need any help!
11:28Fine.
11:30Make it easy for them, then.
11:32Run away and they'll keep on bringing you back.
11:34I'm not staying here.
11:36I'm going back.
11:38I'm going back.
11:40I'm going back.
11:42I'm going back.
11:44I'm going back.
11:46I'm not staying.
11:48I didn't say you have to.
11:50But you have to pick the right moment.
11:52Why not stay around a day or two?
11:54Surprise them when they least expect it.
12:06Yes.
12:14Oh!
12:16That is so disgusting.
12:20Better luck next time, Bozo.
12:24Hey, you!
12:26Don't move a muscle.
12:32No, no, no, no, no.
12:34After the sixth billionth time, no!
12:40Will you please come back here
12:42and discuss this with me rationally
12:44like a sensible human being?
12:46Tracy!
12:48I'm only supposed to be living here temporarily!
12:50You've got to get out
12:52and start meeting some new families.
12:54And what if I don't want to?
12:56What if I like things just as they are?
12:58We all have to move on.
13:00Okay, so why don't you bog off to Australia?
13:12Look!
13:14I've made a list of potential parents
13:16and chosen the couple that I think
13:18are the most compatible with your needs.
13:20Fuck you, Chosen!
13:22You! It's my lifelong happiness!
13:24Now the parents of a mad woman
13:26who eats lentil sandwiches
13:28and wears old men's sandals!
13:32Tracy?
13:36Tracy!
13:38Tracy!
13:40Tracy!
13:42Mr. and Mrs. D'Ebelard
13:44are very nice.
13:46They're responsible and conscientious
13:48and very well-meaning.
13:50They're both social workers!
13:52Look, Elaine, if you really cared about me
13:54you'd let me choose who I was supposed to go live with.
13:56All right.
13:58But no! You're not a real professional, are you?
14:00You're a skanky windbucket with a face
14:02like a shriveled-up baked bean!
14:04Tracy! I said all right!
14:10What?
14:12You choose who you like best and I'll fix up a meeting.
14:14Really?
14:16You mean it?
14:18Well, it's not quite the official approach,
14:20but everyone on the list is fully vetted,
14:22so I can't see any harm in it.
14:24There you go. It's down to you now.
14:26OK.
14:28I might not have time today.
14:30Well, Louise is visiting
14:32and I haven't seen her in ages, so...
14:34Are you making excuses now?
14:36Of course not.
14:38This lot will be fighting over me.
14:40Roll up, roll up!
14:42Bargain of the century!
14:44Who will foster this lovely little girl,
14:46this wonderful child,
14:48this marvellous little gem?
14:56Can't wait to show Justine
14:58about all the places we've been.
15:00Sharing a room with Annie. My hamsters.
15:02Lou, maybe you shouldn't boast too much about things.
15:04Why not?
15:06It might upset your friends. They still live here, remember?
15:08Oh, I guess that was out.
15:10Louise!
15:12Hello, Louise.
15:14Hello.
15:16This is Maurice. I'm Shelley.
15:18Oh, you've got CDs. Great.
15:20Can't wait to listen to them.
15:22I got this new nail kit. You can do my nails and I can do your nails.
15:24And maybe we can go out some if we, like, have to go soon.
15:26But you just got here.
15:28Besides, how do they ever come round?
15:30It's difficult.
15:32I like to stay. It's just...
15:34What?
15:36Well, I'm not allowed.
15:38I have to go to the boring old part of my foster family.
15:48Jackie, this is Louise.
15:50She used to live here, but she's been fostered now.
15:52Lucky you.
15:54Not really.
15:56Fostering's pretty hard going sometimes.
15:58Yeah. It's horrible living somewhere you hate.
16:00Mm, it's horrible.
16:02You can always come back here.
16:04You can have my room any time.
16:06I'm not staying long in this dump.
16:08Ow, ow, ow, ow!
16:10Ow, ow, ow, ow! You're lucky, Louise.
16:12You've got Mum and Dad to look after you.
16:14Oh.
16:16They never make a fuss of me, darling.
16:18Why?
16:20Because they've got four other children, so they're really busy.
16:22I thought you said they were going to take you to the park.
16:26Yeah, but I might rather stay here.
16:28You should have rang me if you weren't happy.
16:30Uh, they didn't let me use the phone.
16:32You're joking.
16:34They're not allowed to do that.
16:36Well, they do.
16:38Oh, and they're really, really horrible.
16:40You lot are much better off back here in the dumping ground.
16:42Louise, time to go.
16:48Bye, then.
16:52Have fun.
16:58Sorry, couple number one.
17:00Thank you, and good night.
17:04What are you doing?
17:06Sorting out my new foster parents.
17:08Is Louise here yet?
17:10She's already been and gone.
17:12What? Fans are telling me.
17:14Louise is really miserable.
17:16Justine's going to go and tell Elaine and try to get her back.
17:18You coming to help?
17:20You've got to help Louise.
17:22She hates the Morrisons.
17:24Yeah, she did look really, um, nervous.
17:26Well, Mrs. Morris was just telling me how well she's settling in.
17:28Don't say you've fallen for that one too, Shelley.
17:30What are you talking about, Tracy?
17:32It is so obvious an amoeba could even work it out.
17:34A what?
17:36The Morrisons are only pretending to be nice and normal
17:38in front of unsuspecting and stupid adults
17:40such as social workers and care home employees.
17:42But really, they're hiding a horrible and unspeakable truth.
17:56Tracy,
17:58you're just projecting
18:00all your own bad feelings about fostering
18:02onto Louise's situation.
18:04No, I'm not.
18:06Well, have you chosen your family
18:08from the list I gave you?
18:10I really need to get on and sort out a meeting.
18:12Well, actually, Elaine, I have decided.
18:14Oh. Good.
18:16Yes.
18:18After carefully weighing up the pros and cons of each family
18:20and finding out what a wonderful time
18:22Louise is having,
18:24I've decided that fostering is the worst idea since homework.
18:26So I won't be meeting
18:28any of your sad losers.
18:30And I'm going home soon,
18:32so you better not even think about putting me up for fostering.
18:34And if you two aren't going to do anything about Louise,
18:36then we certainly will.
18:38So there!
18:40Girls.
18:46She's refusing to even consider
18:48fostering now, Duke.
18:50I don't know what's going to happen
18:52to Tracey. Really, I don't.
18:54She'll be OK, Elaine. She's a natural-born survivor.
18:56She's got more bounce in her than a kangaroo
18:58on a pogo stick.
19:00For our next dedication, we have Tracey on the line.
19:02Hi. I'd like a request for my friend Louise.
19:04She's been forced to live with these really horrible foster parents
19:06and they're so nasty to her.
19:08I'll handle this, Duke.
19:10Tracey?
19:12Tracey, what are you doing?
19:14They should be locked up.
19:16Right now!
19:18Bug off, Elaine!
19:20I'm sorry, the child's got challenging behavioural difficulties.
19:26You can't stop us, Elaine.
19:28We'll show you.
19:30We're all going to go on a massive hunger strike
19:32until you agree to free Louise.
19:34Thank you. Goodbye.
19:36Thank you, Tracey.
19:38Well, this one's for Louise, then.
19:50Uh-huh.
19:54What's up? No one hungry today?
19:56We're all on hunger strike.
19:58Yeah!
20:00Everyone except him.
20:02Nobody eats until Louise is free.
20:04Yeah!
20:06Shame. I thought you might not fancy fish fingers
20:08so I cooked up a few treats.
20:10Chocolate cake!
20:12Pizza!
20:14Wait! What about a hunger strike?
20:16Think of Louise!
20:18Come on, you lot!
20:20This is our one chance to change the course of someone's life.
20:22Our one chance to save a miserable victim
20:24from the horrors of fostering.
20:26So who's with me?
20:28Tracey, life's hard.
20:30And then it's over.
20:34Well, I'm never giving in.
20:42Mmm.
20:44You sure about that?
20:46Detective?
20:48Justine.
20:50I can hold out just as long as Chief Speaker.
20:52Oh, I'm stuffed.
20:54You need a good run around the park.
20:56Yeah.
20:58Duke, can we go to Pond Park this afternoon?
21:00OK.
21:02Great.
21:04Justine!
21:08Jackie! Jackie!
21:10Here.
21:12Now, you're going to promise
21:14I'm not promising anything.
21:16Elaine, if you could just keep an eye on Jackie, just in case.
21:18Duke, can we get some ice cream, please?
21:20No ice cream, no.
21:22Come on, Duke!
21:24Let's go for a brisk walk around the park.
21:26Come on!
21:28Justine, I'm not talking to you.
21:30Three pieces of cake can be shoved down your fat gob.
21:32Tracey, wake up and smell the milkshake.
21:34Louise is in the park with the manky Morrises.
21:36All we've got to do is find out where and rescue her.
21:38Look at this.
21:40Beautiful.
21:42Absolutely gorgeous.
21:44I can't stop running.
21:46I can't stop.
21:48I can't go away.
21:50I have to get Louise.
21:52Yes, I know.
21:54Justine, come on.
21:56Come on.
21:58I can't stop.
22:00What?
22:02I can't win a bike.
22:04I can't win a bike.
22:06Right then.
22:08We'll take this one, please.
22:12Hey, Duke.
22:14When do we get to go on the bikes?
22:16Hey! Come back here, you two!
22:18I'm sorry, Duke.
22:20I can't hear you.
22:22Tracey, you guys are not funny.
22:24Come back here!
22:26Bike!
22:28Watch out, Tracey! Here come the penal police!
22:34Go, Duke!
22:36Go!
22:38Come on!
22:46Sorry about this.
22:48Sorry.
22:50Just shut up and keep looking for Louise, okay?
22:52There's eyes on the bike!
22:54Which way?
22:56This way!
22:58Where is she?
23:00Where is she?
23:02That's it! Stop! Stop! Stop!
23:04What?
23:06Come on, let's get her!
23:08Turn around! Quick! Come on!
23:10Turn around!
23:12We'll find us! He's mad!
23:14Oh, come on!
23:16Faster!
23:18Go!
23:20Come on!
23:26Go!
23:28Go!
23:30Go!
23:40What are you doing here?
23:42We've come to save you from the horrible Morrises!
23:44Quick, get in!
23:46Stop right there, you two!
23:48We're trying to help Louise!
23:50She hates living with them.
23:52How would you like being kept a prisoner?
23:54Treated worse than a slave!
23:56Louise?
24:00The Morrises aren't horrible at all.
24:02They're the best thing that's ever, ever happened to me.
24:04In my whole life.
24:06I just didn't want to hurt your feelings this morning.
24:08I didn't want you all to think I was showing off or boasting.
24:10Do you realise
24:12we've been on a hunger strike for you?
24:14I'm sorry.
24:16Louise, you made me think you were in trouble.
24:18I'm so sorry.
24:20Come on, let's go.
24:22I hate you, Louise.
24:24Can't we make up?
24:26Please?
24:32Louise, these are Undertakers.
24:34And that was a lollipop.
24:36Tracy?
24:38Tracy,
24:40I want to have a serious talk with you.
24:42You need to work
24:44on your fostering fears.
24:46Now, I'm prepared to offer you a weekly therapy session.
24:48No thanks, Elaine.
24:50Tracy, you have to face
24:52your fears and...
24:54This one.
24:56Sorry?
24:58Well, they don't believe in giving children sweets.
25:00And they don't have a garden.
25:02And she's got a moustache.
25:04Justine, Louise and Jackie have been helping me
25:06make my final decision.
25:08This is the lucky family I'm prepared to meet
25:10with a view to fostering me.
25:12You'll give fostering a try?
25:14Well, it worked for Louise, didn't it?
25:16Yes, yes it did.
25:18So, if you'd stop faffing about
25:20and book up a meeting,
25:22we might be able to get something sorted.
25:24Well, go on.
25:26Chop, chop.
25:48I'm sorry.
25:50I'm sorry.
25:52I'm sorry.
