00:00Were you about to do something stupid?
00:04Kitty, it's quite simple.
00:08Either disappear, without a trace,
00:13or I will end you.
01:01I'm sorry.
01:19Hey, here she is. I made you some breakfast. You sleep well?
01:31My heart is like an open highway.
01:35My break is set up, dead in my way.
01:40Will you just stop following me around?
01:44I've had enough of you lingering in my living room like a bad smell all night.
01:48I'm sorry. I'm just worried about you.
01:52I ain't gonna live forever.
01:55I just wanna live the life I am.
02:03My heart is like an open highway.
02:07My break is set up, dead in my way.
02:11I just wanna live the life I am.
02:14Your dad's not happy with you.
02:16It's my life.
02:19Maybe something.
02:21I've made you my famous poached eggs.
02:23You'll break my heart if you don't touch it.
02:26What heart?
02:28What?
02:30I need to get to work.
02:32Does it hurt?
02:33Hey, Cleo, come in. Come in.
02:35Stay away from me!
02:39Look, Cleo, yesterday things got out of hand.
02:42Why don't you take the day off work, and I will as well, and, you know, I can spoil you.
02:48You've already spoiled everything.
02:50Don't say that.
02:51I still love you.
02:53No.
02:54See, you use that word, but you don't really know what it means.
02:57Do you do this to people that you love?
03:03I need to go to work.
03:04No, Cleo, don't leave me. Don't leave!
03:06Please!
03:08Look, if I don't go to work, then people will ask questions, won't they?
03:21Today's just a bit last minute for a prison visit, okay?
03:24We've got our first day back at work tomorrow. We have to be sorted for it.
03:26Yeah, and listen, Warren needs to understand that he's not the big man about town anymore.
03:30He can't just click his fingers and everyone come running.
03:32Well, when we get Norma's post-mortem results back, it'll prove that he's innocent and he'll be back in the village.
03:37Oh, I can't wait.
03:39Look, Joel, you haven't been to see him once.
03:43Look, if you change your mind, I know he'd really appreciate it.
03:47So would I.
03:49Right.
03:53Listen, don't feel bad.
03:55Right, we need to be ready for work tomorrow.
03:58And they're gonna give us a couple of tests, make sure we are ready.
04:01Drug tests, medical tests, things like that.
04:03Yeah.
04:12Do you know what? I, um...
04:14I might sleep in a little bit under the weather. Maybe there's a way we could postpone it.
04:17What, you don't feel ready to go back?
04:19No, of course I am.
04:23Right. At least just show up for the medical, yeah?
04:26And the drug tests, they're quite strict about it.
04:35Is he?
04:36What's with the bags?
04:39I'm leaving.
04:41Today.
04:42You're leaving?
04:44Right, well, when will you be back?
04:45Yeah, what about Beau?
04:47I'm so sorry, Tony. He deserves so much more than he got.
04:50Hang on a minute, you'll have to wait for R.O. He's gonna be absolutely devastated.
04:53Yeah. I can't.
04:55I'm sorry.
04:58Thank you for everything.
04:59Vicky!
05:02What?
05:05You're not still worried about James, are you?
05:07What about James?
05:08Nothing, love.
05:11I haven't actually told Leah about finding the pills.
05:13I didn't want to worry her. I just...
05:15You know, when you whisper, it only makes me want to listen more.
05:18And you meddled enough in my business after yesterday.
05:24Listen, can you do me a favour?
05:26Can you go and check on James for me tonight, please?
05:29State, listen, if you are genuinely that worried about him, you need to get him professional help.
05:33Look, sending people around to pressure him when he's asked you to leave him alone doesn't sound like the best idea to me.
05:38Yeah, that's really good advice.
05:40I know.
05:44Hi, good morning. Can I come in?
05:46I've, er, well, I've brought you some of these, er, two...
05:49Yeah, I've brought you these.
05:51The cornerstone of any nutritious breakfast.
05:55Er, I did send you a message saying I was working from home.
05:58Yeah, I know, I just...
05:59I just wanted to make sure that you'd eaten.
06:02I'll have a coffee if you make him one. Thanks.
06:05Milk and sugar?
06:06Mm-hm.
06:14I know what this is.
06:16Steve's sent you round to do some sort of ridiculous wellness check, hasn't he?
06:23He said that he'd seen you earlier buying loads of bottles.
06:27Have you been drinking in the morning?
06:29No more than usual.
06:32He also said that he'd found you over some pills.
06:36He found me with some very basic, store-bought painkillers.
06:41Store-bought painkillers.
06:43And he thought, what's better for a man with a headache
06:46than a morning visit from Maxine Miniver?
06:48Wow, rude!
06:50You know what's rude?
06:52It's Steve spreading false rumours that I'm having a breakdown
06:55because he cheated on me. In fact...
07:00James!
07:03SHE SIGHS
07:08You all right, Cleo?
07:10Ah, yeah. It's a long day.
07:13How's the baby doing?
07:17There's still no news.
07:19No news is good news sometimes.
07:21I mean, every day gives them a better chance, right?
07:24You've been in there all night. You look exhausted.
07:27The most important days is when the baby's just been born.
07:32That's when they form their bonds.
07:35And I don't want him to miss out,
07:37just because he might not make it, you know?
07:41Always knew you'd be an amazing dad.
07:43Cleo, I've... I've been trying to call you.
07:46Are you on your lunch? Can we get some food?
07:49I'm just catching up with Prince.
07:51Nah. You all right? I should go and get my head down.
07:54And I still haven't spoken to Dilly.
07:56Go on.
07:57I need to say bye to Theo before I get off.
08:14James?
08:15Oh, what is it?
08:16Surprised to see me alive?
08:19Camp entrance.
08:21OK.
08:22What were you thinking, sending Maxine round?
08:25I don't need a babysitter.
08:27Well, you made it very clear you didn't want to see me,
08:29and I'm worried about you.
08:30Yet I find you with a load of pills.
08:32James, it's hard enough being a part of him
08:34without worrying that you've done something stupid to yourself
08:36or you've hurt yourself.
08:37Is that what you're talking about, of Leela?
08:39Your father rather indulgently believes
08:41that his dalliance with the local lowlife will be the death of me.
08:46I've got news for you.
08:48I've survived bigger disasters.
08:51I've survived bigger disappointments than you, Stephen.
09:04Thanks for seeing me, Cleo.
09:08When you left earlier,
09:09I was worried that you were going to make a decision in the heat of the moment.
09:14Cleo, I'm so sorry.
09:17Yeah.
09:19I've, um...
09:21I've got anger issues.
09:23I always have done.
09:25And I'll do better, all right?
09:27If you give me another chance, I'll do better
09:30and I'll make sure that you'll get the life that you deserve.
09:33You showed me what life with you would be like last night.
09:36What me walking round on eggshells all the time
09:39and just waiting for you to go off like a volcano.
09:42I don't want that, eh?
09:44Yeah. Yeah, I know. I know.
09:48It's because of the way that I grew up.
09:50I wouldn't wish that on anyone.
09:52I had a really messed-up childhood as well, you know?
09:55I don't use that as an excuse to hurt people, do I?
09:57Kitty was right.
09:59People like you, you just...
10:01You don't deal with your problems.
10:03You just make them everybody else's.
10:05I will. I will deal with mine, OK?
10:07I'll go back to anger management. I will.
10:09I was just about to message.
10:12I was just about to message.
10:14Sally's getting a take-away in tonight.
10:16I wondered if you guys wanted to join us.
10:18Er, no, not tonight.
10:20I think she just wanted the whole family together.
10:22But no pressure, obviously.
10:24Another time?
10:26Sorry, this is her now.
10:28John Port, wait. Where are you going?
10:30What are you going to tell him?
10:32Nothing, all right? I'll see you later, OK?
10:34Look, Abe, you said you had a class anyway.
10:36I'll cancel it, OK?
10:38I can fix this.
10:40Yeah, you will, you will.
10:42You just need to work on yourself, OK?
10:44I will, all right? For you, Cleo, yeah?
10:46And for the baby.
10:48If...
10:50If that's what you still want.
10:52Yeah.
10:54Yeah?
10:56Yeah.
10:58I love you so much, all right?
11:00You won't regret this.
11:02I love you too.
11:04OK.
11:06I need your help.
11:20All right?
11:22You look nice.
11:26Nice of you to finally visit.
11:28With a chance to see that friendly face,
11:30who could say no?
11:32You don't look too great yourself.
11:37You didn't do it, did you?
11:40I'm going to pretend you didn't ask me that.
11:42I'm being set up.
11:44But it ain't going to work.
11:46We're visiting you in prison, Warren.
11:48I'd say it's work to treat so far.
11:50The post-mortem will clear me.
11:52And then I'm going to find out who's behind this,
11:54and I'm going to deal with them.
11:56What then? You get banged up for murdering them instead?
11:58It must be really comforting for you as a family.
12:00I'm not going to sit here and be patronised
12:02by someone who looks like they've walked off the set.
12:04I told you to pack that stuff in.
12:06You might be able to fool Leela, but you don't fool me.
12:08I'm not here to fool anybody, Dad, all right?
12:10I came here to visit you,
12:12cos Mercedes says that's what you wanted.
12:14If it's not,
12:16I've got a million other things I could be doing.
12:18Fine.
12:20I'll drop it.
12:22Get some snacks in while you're up there on your high horse.
12:28Warren.
12:30Look.
12:32Look.
12:34He's banning off me being stuck in here
12:36away from my kids.
12:38Without panicking that, I'm going to wake up one morning
12:40to find out that my son's overdosed.
12:42Look, I can't keep him away
12:44from the smack stuck in here.
12:46That's why I need you to help me do it.
12:48I'm not busy enough looking after your little kids.
12:50You want me to look after your big and an all?
12:52We're the only ones that know that he's using.
12:54I've already lost one child.
12:56I can't lose another one.
12:58It'll kill me.
13:00Please.
13:12Are you seriously going to leave
13:14without saying goodbye?
13:16Came to my senses, didn't I?
13:18You in trouble, Kate?
13:20No, more than usual.
13:22It's just cleaner like this.
13:24I don't want anyone else getting into trouble because of me.
13:26If
13:28Bo does decide
13:30to let you see him again,
13:32would you
13:34just tell him that I'm...
13:36He knows.
13:38Well, hey, go on then, young man.
13:40Help me with these bags.
13:48Excuse me.
13:50Excuse me.
13:54I don't know what I'm going to do without you.
13:58What if...
14:00What if my mum forgets who I am
14:02and then you're not there to tell them?
14:04Then you'll tell them.
14:06Because you know exactly who you are, right?
14:08Yeah.
14:10I'm what you need.
14:12Who?
14:14And you know you better than anyone.
14:16Yeah.
14:18Er, yeah.
14:22Trying to have a heartfelt moment over here.
14:24Don't miss your kid.
14:30Go to his house.
14:34Yeah.
14:46I'm way too good at goodbye.
14:50Cleo, do you want me to pack some kitchen stuff?
14:52Oh, John Paul, I just need the essentials.
14:54I need to get out of here before Abe gets back.
14:58Are you sure that
15:00all this is just because of him and Theresa?
15:02Yeah. I just couldn't handle it.
15:04I'm just going to do another sweep of the bedroom, okay?
15:12Oh.
15:14You must be the next sorry float
15:16on Ste's intervention parade.
15:18Yeah, no, but nice to see you too.
15:32Is that my cashmere jumper?
15:34Yeah, it is.
15:36Obviously I didn't have enough money to get another one,
15:38so I just nicked it indefinitely.
15:40Then Dad said he saw you surrounded by a load of pills.
15:42Oh, for the last time...
15:44You know, I just kept thinking, what if you had gone through with it?
15:46What if I thought the reason you'd done it
15:48is because I'd stolen this?
15:50So just take it.
15:52I can't have that on my conscience.
15:54That's very good of you.
15:58As per usual, your father is overreacting.
16:02If you could perhaps remind him
16:04that my welfare is no longer his concern.
16:06He's not the only one who's concerned.
16:08Oh.
16:12Right.
16:14Lia, I'm fine.
16:18All right, I'm not fine,
16:20but I'm not going anywhere for the foreseeable future.
16:22They were just headache pills.
16:26Take it.
16:30Do you not love my dad any more?
16:34You know, I used to think you were the smartest man in the world.
16:36You know, I used to think you were the smartest man
16:38I ever met, but...
16:40If you're willing to throw away what you do have,
16:42then maybe not.
16:52Cleo?
16:54Are you staying forever?
16:56Well, I'm sworn off men, so...
16:58Yeah, probably be here till the end of time.
17:00Great news on both counts.
17:02Well, I'm delighted that you're back living with John Paul and me.
17:04No disrespect to those not present,
17:06but we are the smart queens.
17:08Oh!
17:10And I think it's healthy for the children
17:12for us all to be living in the house.
17:14It's a bit harsh on the rest.
17:16It's harsh on us.
17:18I've always wanted to go on family fortunes,
17:20but I can't, cos we'd get destroyed.
17:22Bobby's smart.
17:24Murderer, so, obviously.
17:26KNOCK AT DOOR
17:28Takeaway's here.
17:30Right, girls, would you go and wash your hands, please?
17:32John Paul, get the plates sorted
17:34while I speak to the man.
17:36Thank you very much.
17:52What's that video?
17:54Nothing.
17:56Everything all right, love?
17:58Yeah, yeah.
18:00I've...
18:02gone and forgotten something really important back at the flat,
18:04so I'm just gonna go pick it up.
18:06Want me to come with you?
18:08No, no, no, it's fine.
18:10Save you some food.
18:12Yeah.
18:18Thanks for agreeing to come and see your dad today.
18:20I know he wouldn't have admitted, but I think it's pretty lonely in there.
18:22Yeah, Dad's been lonely his whole life already.
18:24Is that Warren?
18:26Any update?
18:28I heard he killed his mum.
18:30Well, he didn't. He got framed for it.
18:32And he'd do something like that?
18:34He'll be out in a week, anyway, so...
18:38I'll stick the champagne on this.
18:40Hey, Merce.
18:42I didn't just turn up today
18:44for my dad, all right?
18:46No?
18:48You said I'd be doing you a favour for Cainman.
18:50Truth is, I need one.
18:52Oh, what have I got wrought in my head?
18:54Favour for foxes? No, thanks. Ask Leela.
18:56I've got tomorrow. I'm going to be drug tested.
18:58Obviously, I'm...
19:00I'm going to fail.
19:02So, I need you to help me cheat it.
19:08All right.
19:12Is that James's jumper?
19:14Did you nip that when we left?
19:16Of course not. How dare you?
19:18I just saw him earlier. He practically thrusted it up on me.
19:20You saw James?
19:22Mm-hm.
19:24How was he?
19:26Right, Dad.
19:28I genuinely do think
19:30he just had a headache.
19:32OK?
19:34Oh. Mm-hm.
19:36Right. Yeah.
19:38Well, it's not my fault, OK?
19:40I panicked.
19:42You know what it's like when things don't go his way?
19:44He self-destructs.
19:46He needs me
19:48to look after him.
19:50No, I think you both just need each other.
19:54He still loves you, you know.
19:56I mean, he told me.
19:58Really?
20:00Yeah, basically. This isn't the end for you two.
20:02I can tell.
20:04I don't know.
20:06Sometimes love isn't enough.
20:08Right, trust me. James will be back here
20:10before you know it.
20:12He'll come round, going all,
20:14well, I didn't mean for it to get this far,
20:16and come on, let's work on it.
20:18Well, I really hope you're right.
20:20I bet you this is him now.
20:22No, no, no.
20:24Q-Rap's free, you're free, you're not, you've run into each other's arms,
20:26it's dead, dead cringey.
20:28I...
20:30Might want to re-check your script,
20:32know it all.
20:34Hey.
20:38I'm here on behalf of James.
20:40What? Told you.
20:44He's asked me to deliver these to you.
20:46It's tea.
20:48They're divorce papers.
20:52Right.
21:00You made me believe that we were going to try for a baby,
21:02and then you just leave
21:04without a word.
21:06Babe, where did that video come from?
21:08What video?
21:10Oh, you mean this video.
21:14Turn it off.
21:16Yeah, I put a camera in her bedroom, for security purposes.
21:18Turn it off!
21:20What, just for the good bit?
21:24He recorded me with him.
21:28You look like you were enjoying it. Were you enjoying it?
21:30I don't know what you think this means.
21:34If you think it's going to keep us together.
21:36Now, if I saw that on the internet,
21:38I would say that you look like you were enjoying it.
21:40Yeah, if I saw that on the internet,
21:42then I would think you were the type of girl that did it all the time.
21:46But it's not on the internet, is it?
21:48Is it?
21:50No.
21:52No!
21:54Do you really think
21:56that I would leak a video of you,
21:58my girlfriend, on the internet,
22:00like that, for the whole world to see?
22:04Yep.
22:06That's my word to you, Cleo.
22:14No one
22:16will ever see that video,
22:18as long as we're together.
22:20Now, go and get your stuff,
22:22and come back home.
22:46Yeah.
23:10Make sure you get some sleep before work tomorrow.
23:12Not like you need it.
23:16Yeah.
