00:00MUSIC
00:15You alright mate?
00:28Tell me you didn't go home!
00:30Are you paying? They've had my wallet in there.
00:35Yeah, I tried.
00:37Sorry Dad.
00:38You can't keep showing your face round there kid. Keep telling you that.
00:42Here, take a look at that.
00:46Go on, go and get yourself fresher love. Go on, I'll sort this.
00:52Everything alright?
00:53Yeah, you know how it goes. Young lads, scrapping over a bit of skirt.
00:58Alright, I'll manage.
01:00Anyway, you've got your own problems to be worried about.
01:04Beardy bloke, looks like he wants to keep you in his loft, turn you into soup.
01:08Rhys.
01:09I thought you could trust him. He won't make that same mistake again.
01:13Nor will anyone else.
01:14If we don't get that money back today, then Rhys is a dead man.
01:28Morning.
01:30Oh, you're up. I was wondering you might show your face.
01:33Oh, I was going to get milk. Hang on, let me get you some money.
01:36No, you're fine.
01:37You can buy my baby sister milk and bread, right?
01:40And a chocolate.
01:49Right, I'm off. I'll see you later.
01:53Where are you going?
01:54I've got a meeting in town.
01:55OK.
01:57You up too much tonight?
01:59Why, are you angling for me to cook?
02:01No, I'm just wondering if you need me to disappear, in case your new girlfriend comes over again.
02:05No, it's just me. So, we'll get a takeaway or something, if you like.
02:09Yeah.
02:10Alright.
02:11Hands off my cereal.
02:13Alright.
02:22Decaf cappuccino to go, please, darling.
02:24Yeah, oh, I saved you some of them Belgian buns, did you like?
02:27Well, er, actually, Bernie, can I just have a hot water? I'm trying to save up.
02:32Oh, I get you. Felix wanted to take me to Brighton for my birthday, but, you know, Brighton's a B&B, and not that I was feeling...
02:38Twelve o'clock, Rhys. And I ain't mugging about.
02:42Er, there you go. On the house.
02:54See ya.
02:58Wakey, wakey, old man! Rise and shine!
03:25Poor Ben. And how was Lexi?
03:28Well, she was putting on a brave face for him, you know, telling him all about the American sweets we picked up at the airport.
03:34Ian decided to stay another week, you know, to try and sort things out.
03:38I told Cindy. Do you know, I could swear she was thrilled not to have him home.
03:42Oh, lovely. Is that my decaf cappuccino?
03:44Actually, I'm so sorry. It's just hot water.
03:47You went to the caf for hot water?
03:50I was thinking we could go out today, maybe get a train somewhere, make a day event.
03:53I'm working later, darling. Besides, you know, we've got to save where we can.
03:58We've got a wedding to pay for.
04:00You're not, are you?
04:02We're engaged.
04:03Oh, Sonny, congratulations. I'm so happy for you.
04:07About time and all. And what with the baby and everything.
04:10I wish everyone would take it as well as you.
04:13Debbie's parents turned up again last week, shouting the odds about Debbie's life insurance.
04:19I mean, they barely even visited her in the last few years.
04:21As if he ain't suffering enough.
04:24Well, the woman's been in a coma for years. I mean, he's allowed to move on.
04:28I think they saw the ring.
04:30Not like it's hers, is it?
04:35Rhys.
04:38Rhys!
04:43Black coffee, please, Brownie.
04:45Yeah, of course. I'll bring it over.
04:51So, he back at the flat?
04:53No. He's gone into town for a meeting.
04:56What meeting?
04:57I don't know.
04:59Look, I really don't feel right spying on him.
05:02He's been buying me pastries and stuff.
05:04Oh, a couple of croissants and you're swapping sides already?
05:06So what if he's got a new woman?
05:10That was me 25 years ago, Gina.
05:13You should have seen him lose it the other day.
05:15He needs to focus on his family, not some side piece.
05:17Otherwise, he's going to be the man in 2050,
05:20wondering why he doesn't see his boy anymore.
05:28Just try to get a look at his phone.
05:31See if this woman's serious.
05:33All right. Fine.
05:37You have got to go and see your recovery coordinator and talk through rehab.
05:41And he'll be fine with me.
05:42I should be there.
05:43Listen, darling, like the dentist said, it's just a routine procedure.
05:46Go and see if the little lady's ready, yeah?
05:50Apparently, it was his grand dream.
05:52Not Debbie's, even though she wore it.
05:55Evelyn almost backed out of taking this down when you was away.
05:58What?
05:59Dean offered her a deal.
06:00Oh.
06:01She's got a meeting about her rehab today.
06:03We don't need her talking to anyone else.
06:05Well, she's more likely to let something slip if she's blind drunk.
06:08As soon as she gets help about it.
06:10Don't stop on my account.
06:11Look, we all just want you to get better, Linda.
06:15Hey, sweetheart.
06:16You're going to be good for Grandma,
06:18and I'll be back soon with lots and lots of cuddles.
06:23Uh, just give us a minute, Sharon, all right?
06:27Phil?
06:30Can I have a word?
06:31Kath, whatever it is, I ain't got time, all right?
06:34It's about Ben.
06:35It was just a can of chocolate.
06:36No need to buy me lunch.
06:37Yeah, but Mum would do herself a face, wouldn't she?
06:41Have you, uh, have you got a pic from Debbie's birthday party?
06:43I just can't get a look at your face.
06:45No.
06:51Oh.
06:52Oh, did he get any cake in his mouth, or what?
06:55I'll send them over to you.
06:56Yeah, yeah, yeah.
06:57And I might get the pie, too.
06:58I'll be back in a second, yeah?
06:59Mm-hmm.
07:00Yeah, yeah, yeah.
07:01Yeah, yeah, yeah.
07:02Yeah, yeah, yeah.
07:03I might get the pie, too.
07:04I'll be back in a second, yeah?
07:05Mm-hmm.
07:17What can I get you?
07:19That's Julian's phone, isn't it?
07:21Uh, look, Dad wanted me to find out who his new fancy woman is.
07:26Oh, so George is getting you to do his desk work, is he?
07:28No, he just, he doesn't want to ruin his life.
07:31No, like he did.
07:32I see.
07:34You sure?
07:35I mean, Mum, please don't say anything.
07:38No, just grab your wine.
07:41Coming up.
07:48What are you talking about? I spoke to him a few days ago.
07:50Yeah, well, he's putting on a brave face, isn't he?
07:52He did it for Lexi and all.
07:55You should see him, though, Phil.
07:57He's lost weight again.
07:58He's not sleeping, I know he's not.
08:00And this appeal of his, he's barely getting off the ground.
08:03So what about his brief?
08:05Useless, apparently.
08:07Ian stayed out there to try and find him someone else.
08:10Listen, I'll call the prison, all right?
08:13He won't want to talk to you.
08:15Why?
08:16Well, he don't want anyone to know.
08:17I mean, he's got Lexi to think of, Callum.
08:20And he probably thinks you'd fly off the handle and make everything worse.
08:23Just don't let him know that I've said anything.
08:25Go, go, go.
08:26Phil, we need to talk about...
08:27Go, go, go.
08:28Go, go, go.
08:30What's happened with Phil's boy?
08:32Sorry, but what's it got to do with you?
08:34Oh, just asking, that's all.
08:36Because if he is bound for blood,
08:38then he'll be your friendly neighbourhood account
08:40and he's going to get it on your neck.
08:42Rhys?
08:50Look, I am sorry, you know.
08:51I explained to Cathy that it was your grandmother's ring.
08:54It's not that.
08:55Well, what is it then?
08:57Look, I just think...
09:00I mean, this should be the happiest time of our lives.
09:02We got engaged.
09:03We're having a baby.
09:04People are always going to talk.
09:06But maybe if we got away, you know, just for a few days.
09:08A week maybe, or even two.
09:10A month might be closer to anyone in the world.
09:12Listen, I've told you.
09:13If we run away, it makes us look guilty.
09:15Just keep...
09:17You're still grieving, Rhys.
09:20Listen, we could still go and grab lunch, you know, in town somewhere.
09:23If we go right now...
09:24What has gotten into you?
09:27Open the door!
09:29I don't know.
09:30Rhys!
09:33There's no investment.
09:36And I said I'd pay him back.
09:38Today.
09:39Rhys!
09:40Open the door!
09:45Oh, what time do you call this?
09:48You're resting, right?
09:49Oh, look, I can't stay in this house a second longer.
09:51I'm absolutely sweltering.
09:53I've had to give my hand to Lily for Charlie.
09:56It's the first sunny day we've had.
09:58And that's not going to help.
10:00Well, there's nothing on the television,
10:02just back-to-back holiday programmes.
10:04Flipping Greek islands and infinity pools
10:06and sipping pina coladas on the beach.
10:09Do you think that we might possibly get away sometime this year?
10:13Well, I've got enough sunshine here, haven't we?
10:15A bacon butty on a stinky market
10:18breathing in the smoggy fumes from the tube.
10:21The last holiday I had was imbalanceable with little Mo,
10:24and we could barely afford a bag of chips between us.
10:27Right, are we going then, or what?
10:29We could maybe stop off at the travel agents
10:31and pick up a few brochures and...
10:33No, no, no, no. You need to rest your back,
10:35and I've got a shift on the switch I have to cover.
10:38Oh.
10:39But later, for sure, all right?
10:41And, hey, if we're going to book a holiday,
10:43I need all the dough I can get, don't I?
10:45I won't get up to you.
10:47I promise. Tonight.
10:49Oh.
10:51Go on.
10:56Riggs, open the door, now!
10:58Open the door!
11:00Riggs!
11:01I've told you I want my money! Do you hear me?
11:03Phil, mate, he's going to the wave.
11:05There you are, you little rat!
11:06Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
11:07How can he have a conversation
11:08if you're banging the door down like the bleeding Gestapo?
11:11Sonia, stay out of this.
11:12No, no, she's right. Maybe we should...
11:13Yeah, you can shut up and all!
11:14Lay one finger on him, and I'm calling the police.
11:16Yeah, you can tell him about your favourite boyfriend, won't you?
11:18No-one is calling the police,
11:19and no-one is putting anyone else in hospital.
11:21You promised Jamie you'd look after me. You swore that to him.
11:24Look, you two just go, OK? I'll deal with this.
11:27Sharon, he's nicked our money!
11:28It's my mess!
11:29And as I said, I will deal with it.
11:31Now go, please, Phil.
11:33Come on, Mum.
11:41Think you'd better put the kettle on, don't you?
11:49Look, just so you know, it was Gina's idea to go to the pie shop.
11:53You know she's spying on you, don't you, George?
11:56You what?
11:57He wants to know how serious you are about this new woman,
12:00and if it's going to stop you from getting back together with Monique.
12:05Right, well, um, I'll sort it.
12:07No, how? It's going to be a mess.
12:09I'll sort it.
12:10I'll sort it.
12:11I'll sort it.
12:12I'll sort it.
12:13I'll sort it.
12:14I'll sort it.
12:15I'll sort it.
12:16I'll sort it.
12:17No, how?
12:18It's going to be even harder for us to sneak around
12:20if you've got someone spying on you in your own home.
12:22Yeah, well, I can't turf her out after she's barely unpacked her bags.
12:25I said I'll sort it.
12:27Right.
12:28Well, if you're not man enough to find us an alternative,
12:30I'll just have to do it myself.
12:32Won't I?
12:37When Keone stole from the business, you came straight to me.
12:41Yet here we are, barely a year later,
12:43and you're doing the exact same thing yourself.
12:46Now, I defended you when Phil wasn't sure about this investment.
12:51Teddy might be talking him down,
12:54but I think you'd be safe in police custody.
12:56He was desperate, Sharon.
12:59The Sonia I knew would never have turned a blind eye to theft.
13:04Look, we lost the baby we thought we were having.
13:07He just wanted to get that back, for me.
13:10We've got an early scan tomorrow,
13:12just to check everything's OK.
13:14We'll pay you back.
13:16I promise.
13:17Rhys just lost his wife.
13:20If it wasn't for me, he'd be falling into the ground.
13:22Look, what Sonia means is, um,
13:24Debbie had a life insurance policy.
13:27We're just waiting for them to dot the I's and cross the T's,
13:30and the money'll be yours.
13:31I promise.
13:35The money comes to us as soon as the policy comes in.
13:39Now, I'm doing this for you and your baby.
13:42Not for him.
13:47SHE SIGHS
13:53Life insurance.
13:54We don't...
13:56Brenda and you might get it stopped.
13:58It'll come through.
14:00All right?
14:06So you're going to go to America, then?
14:08I can't, can I? I've got a criminal record.
14:11Anyway, he, er...
14:13He don't want to see me.
14:16Well, I think my boys,
14:17they'll always need their dad to keep them out of trouble.
14:20Yeah, well, your boys don't need to sign a visiting order, do they?
14:23Fair enough.
14:26Look, you don't need all this hag with Rhys.
14:30So what? Just let him get away with it?
14:32He's hardly Ronnie Cray, is he?
14:34And he ain't worth your time right now.
14:36Why don't you let me handle it?
14:38Silly old cardigan, man.
14:40He just needs a firm hand.
14:42I don't know.
14:43You want me to stay out of it, sweet,
14:45I'll stay out of it.
14:46But in my eyes, we're family.
14:48And I'm just trying to keep me cousin out of the shovel.
14:54You just focus on that boy of yours.
14:59Just give me my money back, yeah?
15:03Hello?
15:04Yeah, I need to speak to somebody about, er...
15:06Ben Mitchell.
15:15Hey.
15:16Hey.
15:17Sorry I'm late, but someone just went away from me.
15:19Well, I was thinking I was going to have to order a pie soon.
15:21He's been giving me dirty looks.
15:23Oh, right, well...
15:25He's new, but...
15:26If you're hungry, I could, er...
15:28I was joking, Harvey.
15:30Oh, yeah.
15:32Um, yeah.
15:33Here's my, er...
15:34My tickets for last night.
15:36Extra shift.
15:37Thanks.
15:39We've already spent everything we've got this month on, er, bills, so...
15:42This'll be really useful for getting a bit of shopping in, at least.
15:45Well, I'm sorry it ain't much.
15:46I'm taking all the extra work I can, but I'll get more.
15:50This is more than enough.
15:52Listen, um...
15:53I should go, cos I've got to cover a switch shift.
15:56Listen, Harvey, if...
15:57If this is all too much, then...
15:59No, no.
16:00No, I'll be in touch as soon as I can.
16:02All right?
16:13Honestly.
16:14You go away for five minutes.
16:16Apparently, Phil's got some kind of beef with Rhys,
16:19Peter's left the pie shop and Bobby's now a manager.
16:21Well, someone had to take charge.
16:23Why are you swanned off?
16:24I was visiting my son in prison, Cindy.
16:26I'd need Disney then.
16:29Oh, by the way.
16:31Peter text.
16:32Lauren's made a big sale at the car lot.
16:34Oh?
16:35What's she want?
16:36A medal?
16:37Actually, we're thinking of inviting you all over for dinner.
16:40And I think he'd really like it if you were there.
16:42Peter wants you and Lauren to patch things up.
16:44Oh, I don't know.
16:46I think I've got another migraine coming on.
16:48Do you know what?
16:49I would give anything to have a drink with my son right now.
16:52OK, I'll try.
16:54I'll see how I feel.
16:57OK, I'll try.
16:58I'll see how I feel.
17:14You have been so brave.
17:18You have.
17:20Mummy is so proud of you.
17:22OK?
17:24I made you this, but maybe you can have some later.
17:27Tell you what, I'll go and fetch Teddy.
17:30All right?
17:31Yeah.
17:32OK.
17:38Did everything go...
17:39Absolutely fine, just in and out.
17:44Everything go all right with your recovery coordinator?
17:49And you're all right to start with your private rehab, yeah?
17:52Yeah, yeah, he's happy.
17:54But, Mummy, are you sure you can afford this?
17:58I mean, it's not exactly spare change.
18:00You're my girl.
18:03I almost lost you last week.
18:05I can't tell you how scared I was.
18:07Nothing matters more than you getting better.
18:14Only two weeks till I take the stand.
18:17Don't feel like a long time.
18:18You'll get through it.
18:20It'll be worth it.
18:22Come on.
18:30Can you wait a couple more minutes, please?
18:32OK.
18:49I see you're sulking.
18:51Right.
18:52If you want to act like a child, I should treat you like a child.
18:55No more playdates.
18:57Hotel is off.
19:04I'm really sorry, but I won't be needing you anymore.
19:07Thanks.
19:21Harry.
19:22You look a bit better than you did this morning.
19:25Yeah, I feel a bit better, too.
19:27Well, that'll teach you to hang about with the wrong crowd, won't it?
19:30Can we get you a drink?
19:32Go on, then. Have a white wine.
19:34Paige, you all right?
19:40So, how's he really doing?
19:44He's a bit shook up, but he's all right.
19:48And Phil?
19:49We're a camp and we live to fight another day.
19:53Look, I'm going to give Phil the cash myself.
19:58And I'm going to deal with Rhys.
20:00Why would you do that?
20:02Well, because I'm going in all raging bull.
20:04I ain't going to get anyone's money back, is it?
20:06And Phil's happy about that?
20:08He's got a lot on his plate.
20:11Well, thank you.
20:13Supposedly, Rhys has got a big payout coming in.
20:16But what?
20:18I just need someone to keep him in line.
20:20Cheers.
20:22Thanks.
20:25Cheers, George.
20:26Cheers, Matt.
20:27Nice one.
20:28To my little wheeler-dealer and her first big sale.
20:32Yeah.
20:33Matt, first of many shows.
20:35Are you really going to be rolling in it once I start that new job, Julian?
20:38Yeah, well, let's hope so, eh?
20:40To Lauren.
20:41To Lauren.
20:42Well done, Lauren.
20:43To Lauren.
20:44Oh, Gran said you had a migraine, no?
20:47Oh, yeah, it's got now.
20:49Oh, that was lucky.
20:50Well done. Keep it up.
20:52Well, cheers.
20:53I mean, it might just be a beginner's luck, but I'll take it.
20:56Cindy, is that a good idea?
20:59Just because of how many migraines you've been having.
21:01Just leave it, Bob.
21:05Bad heads up.
21:08Mystery solved, eh?
21:10Are you separated, darling? Come on.
21:13What can I get you both?
21:14Whisky.
21:15Yeah, please.
21:16Two whiskies, please.
21:17Two whiskies, please.
21:19Two whiskies, please.
21:26Two whiskies, please.
21:57Bruce.
21:59You alone?
22:01Yes, my son has just hopped out.
22:03She needed some air.
22:05Listen, you can relax.
22:07Phil won't be coming back.
22:11Because I'm going to take on the debt.
22:14Now, any chance of a cup of tea?
22:17Hey.
22:18Hey.
22:19Let me get that.
22:20Let me get those.
22:21Oh.
22:22What are you playing at? You're meant to be resting.
22:24Oh, I just got a few bits in for dinner.
22:26Stacey's gone into the attic to get the fairy lights down
22:28and is stringing them round the garden,
22:30and we're creating our own little Greek taverna.
22:33What?
22:34Oh, the airport one.
22:36We're short, so I said I'd pick it up after I was done with the phones.
22:40Oh, I see.
22:42We're short, so I said I'd pick it up after I was done with the phones.
22:46But I'm just trying to keep the business going.
22:48I'll make it up to you, Jean, I swear.
22:50I've got these.
22:52Come on, don't be daft.
22:53I've got them.
23:03Listen, Maxine.
23:06I just want you to apologise.
23:09Me and Junior arguing the other day while you were in the next room.
23:15Bad manners. Won't happen again.
23:18OK, thanks.
23:20Cool.
23:29I'm too old for games.
23:32Oh, you mean Maxine?
23:34Look, I'm sorry I missed your text about the hotel, but this is important.
23:38I found Dad and Jane off the scent.
23:42If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were jealous.
23:50Here you are.
23:52What's gone off with Phil?
23:54Oh, nothing, just a few cross wires.
23:58You know what he's like.
23:59Pig-headed.
24:01It's been a bit of a day.
24:04Listen, I am going to see if Elaine wants to host a little do with me tomorrow.
24:09An engagement party.
24:10I think we could all do with a little bit of happiness right now.
24:13But what will people think?
24:15Since when do we care what people think?
24:18Oh, go on then, thank you.
24:20Oh, you. You start me off.
24:23You keep your chin up, yeah?
24:25I'm going to go and talk to Elaine.
24:29It's not too late to get out of this.
24:31You've got that baby to think about now.
24:33What is that supposed to mean?
24:35It means I've tied myself to a lot of bad men, Sonia.
24:38Rhys isn't a bad man, and you know that.
24:40Can you honestly tell me you've never had a single doubt?
24:43Yes, I can.
24:44I love Rhys, and I trust him with my life.
24:47Okay?
25:01Well, you can pay me back in instalments,
25:04or when your big payout comes in.
25:07And if your big payout don't happen to come in,
25:09then, well, times are tough.
25:11You've got a little kid on the way,
25:13so I'm sure we can sort something out for you.
25:16But why would you help me?
25:18Well, I like you, Rhys.
25:21And Sonia.
25:23Both good people.
25:25Plus, I've got me fingers in a few pies,
25:27and it wouldn't be a bad thing to have a bit of accounting on my side.
25:32So I'll be working for you?
25:34No, you're getting it.
25:35Look, me and my lads, we've had a spot of trouble lately,
25:38and let's just say it wouldn't do us any harm to start afresh.
25:44But if you'd rather deal with Phil instead,
25:47that's totally up to you.
25:49Otherwise, I'll call you, and you answer.
25:55What do you say?
25:57We got a deal?
