00:00Oh, hiya. My tablet's still missing, so I thought I might have missed it yesterday when
00:17I checked down the back, but...what? What is it? You're acting all shifty. Is there
00:36something you're not telling me? I can do without this today, Jimmy. I'm supposed to
00:40be at work. No, I'll sort it. What's that? Karl's got the dentist in Horton. Jimmy was
00:49meant to take him, but he's having to cover a driving job. Well, I can take him. I've
00:54got nothing else on. You can't be driving with your back injury. The doctors didn't
01:00tell me not to. Are you sure? He'll need dropping at school after, and he gets a bit nervous
01:07in the dentist chair. Well, I'm a vet. I'm used to putting patients at ease. Furry ones.
01:14Anyway... Isaac, Mattie and Kale are in the car, so if you think you're skiving off again,
01:22you can forget it.
01:23Hey, everything OK?
01:24Yeah, apparently he's got a stomach bug, but funny how he managed to wolf down a bacon
01:31sandwich this morning.
01:32Trying it on, is he? Johnny did the exact same thing the other morning. Honestly, if
01:37I'd a pound...
01:38Well, the truth is, I think he's worried about his mammy. He thinks I'm going to keel over
01:44the minute I'm left alone.
01:46Do you want me to have a word? Or I could just get that blood sample from Isaac's U.
01:51Check there's no chemicals left in her system.
01:53Oh, Ness, I hope not.
01:55Moira, how are you today?
01:57Obviously in need of a babysitter. Did Mackenzie send you?
02:00Don't be ridiculous. This is a social call. We managed lunch the other day without killing
02:03each other, so I thought I'd drag her out for some more fun. I thought we'd do wholesome
02:07today, go for a nice country stroll.
02:09Enjoy. I'll call you later with those results.
02:13All right, cheers, Ness.
02:15Laurel, Arthur, how are you today?
02:18I'm still a bit traumatised from walking in on you two.
02:20Yeah, just ignore him. I was going to come and help you with Harvest Festival later.
02:24Oh, there's a pile of donations to sort through. Yeah, Eric's shown his unusual generosity.
02:31These are sold by date, but still usable, apparently.
02:34Well, I'll see you down there.
02:38You OK with us two? You know, I mean, I know it's a bit quick after Jay, but it's not serious.
02:43I don't care who you see.
02:45Well, thanks for not saying anything, cos I don't think Jay would be able to handle it right now.
02:49Stop stressing. If you fancy him, just do what you want.
02:53So, these murder mystery things,
02:56basically they're just a bunch of people getting dressed up and solving crimes.
03:00In a nutshell, I suppose.
03:03The best part is getting under the skin of the characters you're assigned,
03:07just doing the research, bringing them to life.
03:09If I'd have known you were this passionate about it,
03:11I'd have let you tell me more yesterday.
03:13Oh, no, that's OK. It's not for everyone.
03:15Coffee, please. Take away.
03:17I'm surprised you were in here at all.
03:19My nephew being the devil incarnate.
03:21I can always take my custom elsewhere.
03:24Fine. One coffee coming up.
03:26Maybe I'll come with you next time.
03:28See what all the fuss is about.
03:32What do you reckon, Chas?
03:34Couples having a shared hobby?
03:36Er...
03:38I don't know.
03:40What do you reckon, Chas?
03:42Couples having a shared hobby?
03:44Er, it depends what it is.
03:46Murder mystery events. Liam went to one yesterday.
03:48Should have seen him all dressed up. Looked well fit.
03:50Did he now?
03:52Called it, apparently. The butler did it.
03:54Oh, well done, you.
03:56Hope you enjoyed yourself.
03:58I did. I did, yes.
04:00Thank you very much.
04:02Listen, why don't I take you out for lunch?
04:04Make up for missing Bon and Emilian.
04:06There's a lovely pub in Demdike. There's a terrific lunch.
04:09Oh, I can't today. I've got the opticians.
04:11What about later, after work?
04:13Course, yeah. Whatever works for you.
04:21Alright.
04:25You look, er...
04:27Wet.
04:28Just giving her a wash.
04:30I'll have one of my own soon, hopefully.
04:32Oh, but check this one out.
04:34It's got a projector screen, surround sound.
04:36It's like a cinema on wheels.
04:38It's my cousin's van.
04:40You want to live in it, you need a cooker and a sink.
04:42Still drooling over camper vans?
04:44Well, Don's the expert.
04:46I'm asking for his advice.
04:48Give us a sec.
04:52Advice, yeah? Is that what you're calling it now?
04:54You shouldn't even be here.
04:56I wanted to see what a desperate saddler looked like.
04:58I'm not desperate.
05:00He's into me, too.
05:02As if.
05:04No, John won't look twice at someone your age.
05:06I'm in, alright? So, do one.
05:12Can you show us the inside?
05:14You know, so I get an idea of the layout.
05:16Go on, then.
05:18If you must.
05:25One minute, you're dumping manure in my driveway
05:27and now here we are, bezzy mates.
05:29Yeah, well, let's not go too far.
05:31But that's probably down to you
05:33for being so forgiving.
05:35Well, I got a brain tumour.
05:37Just needs some perspective.
05:39Maybe for you, but...
05:43I don't know what's what anymore.
05:45Especially after yesterday.
05:49What happened?
05:51Mac hinted at something, but he didn't say what.
05:53Yeah, cos I asked him not to.
05:55Case Cain finds out.
05:57Sounds serious.
05:59I took the Land Rover out
06:01and I was trying to find Belle.
06:03But you're not supposed to drive.
06:05Yeah, but I had something really important
06:07that I needed to tell her.
06:09I tried calling her, she didn't pick up,
06:11so I got behind the wheel instead.
06:13And then I got lost
06:15and ended up having a massive seizure.
06:17Oh, that's awful.
06:19Yeah.
06:21But I was just a mile up the road, Ruby.
06:23And I've driven it a million times
06:25and I had no idea where I was.
06:28You know, if...
06:30Mackenzie hadn't found me...
06:32I mean, thank God he did, but if he hadn't,
06:34I'd dread to think.
06:36You must have been terrified.
06:38Yeah, well, I've scared everyone else.
06:40Mackenzie, the kids.
06:42And the worst thing is, I can't even remember
06:44what I had to tell Belle.
06:46You know, I just...
06:48I hate being like this, you know?
06:50It's like...
06:52Life, it used to be so easy.
06:54Now everything's just out of control.
06:58SIGHS
07:00Maybe Cale should come back.
07:02I can be with you.
07:04No. No.
07:06He needs to be with Zak.
07:08And please don't tell him.
07:10Or Caleb and Chas.
07:12As soon as he finds this out,
07:14he'll drive straight home.
07:16OK.
07:18That's what you want.
07:20Yeah.
07:25It will get better, you know.
07:27After the surgery.
07:29I know that.
07:32I just can't help thinking that...
07:37What if it kills me?
07:39It's a possibility.
07:43I just can't bear the thought of my boys losing their mum.
07:47SIGHS
07:51Hey, I'm sorry.
07:55It's not you.
07:57It's not...
07:59It's not just you and me.
08:06It's my mother's cremation today.
08:10No service, no mourners.
08:15They'll be disposing of her body all right about now.
08:20Oh.
08:23Did you not want to be there?
08:25No. God, no.
08:29She disowned me when I needed her most.
08:33I never gave up for it.
08:37I just...
08:41Well, it feels a bit final and...
08:45..strange.
08:47Yeah. Sorry. No.
08:49Don't be daft. Come here.
08:52Well, we like it.
09:06Why are we stopping?
09:10SIGHS
09:13Listen, er, we didn't...
09:16..finish our little chat about my tablet going missing.
09:19Do you know where it is? No.
09:22I think you do.
09:26I'll make it clearer for you, shall I?
09:28Did you, or did you not, steal my tablet?
09:35Answer me!
09:37I took it to play games and that's all.
09:39Where is it now, in your school bag?
09:41Er, Isaac Scottie took it off me in the cafe yesterday.
09:44What the hell did you let him do that for?
09:51I need that tablet, all right?
09:53My whole life is on it.
09:57Listen, Carl, I'm...
09:59..I'm sorry if I scared you, all right?
10:02But you did the right thing,
10:04telling me about Isaac. I appreciate it.
10:07Let's get you to school. We'll talk about this later.
10:12CAR ENGINE ROARS
10:18Where have you been?
10:20You know where. We're joining this van.
10:22What, for all this time?
10:24Doing what, exactly?
10:26Nothing new to know about.
10:28Were you and him...
10:30..having sex?
10:32Arthur, that's well bad.
10:34I'll see you home before a bit now.
10:36What? No, of course I'm not.
10:39Look, John's too old for you, that's all it is.
10:41I can't believe you went and had sex with him in his van.
10:44So, what did he just say?
10:46What the hell is going on?
10:48Nothing. Just leave it, will you?
10:50Have you and John slept together?
10:53Well, if you're not denying it, I take that as a yes.
10:56Right.
10:57Where are you going?
10:59To get my hands on him.
11:09MUSIC FADES
11:14You didn't tell Ella where you were.
11:17Yeah, I just thought it would be simpler that way.
11:20Lying's never simple.
11:22And I really don't appreciate having to cover for you.
11:24I am sorry.
11:26I thought I was covering for you.
11:28How?
11:29Well, just having a scare like that,
11:31I thought you'd want to keep it a secret
11:33and stop other people from panicking too.
11:35Well, I suppose when you put it like that.
11:37Just don't do it again.
11:39Ah, there you are.
11:41What the hell do you think you're doing sleeping with my son?
11:44Arthur?
11:46What are you talking about?
11:48I've just heard him and April discussing it.
11:50In your van, apparently.
11:53That is not what happened.
11:55He asked to see the layout.
11:57I showed him and then he left.
11:59No, I've seen the men that you've entertained when you first came here.
12:02The whole village did.
12:03So, what's my son?
12:06Shut up, will you?
12:07How dare you hit on somebody as young and impressionable as him?
12:11Nothing happened.
12:12I was trying to be nice.
12:13Whatever he's told you, he's making it up.
12:20We haven't been close for years.
12:22Not since I fell pregnant.
12:25Yeah, I heard that your parents hated Caleb.
12:28With our passion.
12:30He was never good enough for their little girl.
12:34So, that was it.
12:36He kicked me out and I never saw them again.
12:40I know how it feels.
12:42I didn't know that my own mother had died until after it happened.
12:46I'd have given anything to see her one last time.
12:49Yeah.
12:52I didn't know, either, until it was too late.
12:56She reached out to me.
12:58Asked to see me before she died.
13:00Oh?
13:02Do you know why?
13:04I'd like to think it was because she wanted to apologise,
13:07but I will never know.
13:09PHONE RINGS
13:13Oh, it's Caleb.
13:15He's probably wondering where I am.
13:17Well, you need to spend time with him.
13:20Not today.
13:22Can't bear him fussing around me.
13:24Yeah.
13:25Cain's the same.
13:27Only cos they care.
13:28Yeah, I know that.
13:30Some things we have to deal with on our own.
13:35Good riddance to her.
13:37She was dead to me, anyway.
13:42Is this really the place to be discussing this?
13:44No, I'm not leaving it.
13:46Tell everyone here nothing happened between us.
13:49Just give them a chance, all right?
13:50We just want to know the truth, love.
13:52Well, it's no-one's business who I see.
13:53It is if you go around accusing people.
13:55I'm seeing someone my own age.
13:57I'm not into lads like you. You're still a kid.
13:59I'm not a kid.
14:00Stop making out that I'm a liar.
14:01You're lying right now.
14:03You're barely 17.
14:04I was old enough when he packed me off to Australia.
14:06On my own.
14:07That is completely different.
14:08This is about your well-being.
14:10And you're not mature enough to be having sex with men like this.
14:13They might take advantage.
14:14I'm not mature enough.
14:16What about you and Charles?
14:17Sneaking around like teenagers.
14:19Making out with each other.
14:20Charles?
14:22Seriously?
14:23You and the vicar?
14:25Can we not discuss this here, please?
14:28Why not? Half the village knows now.
14:31I'm not letting this drop.
14:33If Arthur meant what he said,
14:35nor am I.
14:37So when exactly did all this start, then?
14:48Maths?
14:49Ugh.
14:50Do you need a hand?
14:52It's pretty easy.
14:55I'm sorry I got angry in the car earlier.
14:57It's just...
14:59with you stealing my tablet,
15:01that's a problem.
15:02For both of us.
15:04I only borrowed it.
15:06That's not what the police are going to think.
15:09You could end up in jail.
15:11Like Angelica.
15:12Just think how upset your mum and dad would be.
15:15You're not going to tell them, are you?
15:20I should.
15:22If their son's a thief,
15:24they need to know about it.
15:26Please, don't.
15:30Okay.
15:32If that's what you want,
15:34I'll keep your little secret.
15:37Hi.
15:39Home already?
15:43How was the dentist?
15:45Fine.
15:46Perfect patient. No decay.
15:48Brushing was good.
15:49Deserves a treat, I reckon.
15:51How about I buy you a milkshake?
15:53Go on, then.
15:55Tea won't be long,
15:56so no swiping cakes when your grandad's not looking.
15:58Karl?
15:59He wouldn't steal a thing.
16:01Look, I didn't want you to find out this way.
16:03I had asked Arthur not to say anything.
16:06Oh, he's awful for making a show of me.
16:08Can you go upstairs, please? I'll speak to you in a sec.
16:11Look, I'm glad he outed you and Charles.
16:14At least now I know what a pair of devious snakes you are.
16:17I was trying to protect you. I didn't want to upset you.
16:19Oh, you would say that.
16:21Look, I know you've had a really tough time recently
16:23with my heart attack, with Sonny leaving,
16:25but I just thought if you found out, it might tip you over the edge.
16:28Yeah, well, I would sooner know the truth than be made a fool of.
16:32Does Manpreet know?
16:34Er, not all of it.
16:35She found us together a few days ago,
16:37but I just thought it was a one-off.
16:39And you still didn't have the decency to tell me?
16:41Look, I can't get into this now. I want to talk to Arthur, OK?
16:44It was a bit late for proper parenting, isn't it?
16:46I tried to warn you what he was up to with that other lad,
16:49and now look at the mess he's in.
16:51You know, if you'll sleep with any mug that'll have you,
16:53what chance has he got?
16:59Thanks for today.
17:01Making me cry on your shoulder.
17:03Well, it'll be me crying on yours next with the way things are going.
17:07Well, you know where I am.
17:09Any time.
17:10I mean that.
17:12You too.
17:16Your mum's death might hit you harder than you think.
17:19Thanks.
17:21I doubt I'll be shedding any more tears.
17:25Right, I should go.
17:27I'm meeting Mackenzie at the garage.
17:29He picked Isaac up from school.
17:31Are you sure I can't tempt you to dessert?
17:33Er, no, let's not overdo it.
17:35Next you'll be braiding my hair or let me read your secret diary.
17:39Now, that you do not want to see.
17:40Yes, I do.
17:42SHE LAUGHS
17:44See you now, yeah?
17:46Cheers.
17:48Moira, you're on my list of people to call.
17:51Blood test results came back all clear.
17:53Oh, yes, thank God for that.
17:56How was your girly fun with Ruby?
17:58Mm, it was great.
18:00Weirdly.
18:02Now it's Mackenzie's turn to babysit.
18:04She's too scared that I won't find my way home.
18:06He has to drive us.
18:08Things can't be that bad.
18:10Mm, can they?
18:13Look, don't repeat this to anyone,
18:15because I do not want Cain finding out.
18:17Of course, you know you can trust me.
18:19I went out driving yesterday and I sort of lost my way.
18:24Ended up in the middle of the woods having a malassezure.
18:27Oh, Moira. I know.
18:29I can't even trust myself to pick my own son up from school.
18:32I've got to get my wee brother to do it.
18:34Have you told the hospital?
18:35No, I've got a scan tomorrow.
18:38I'm just terrified they're going to tell me it's got bigger.
18:41Cain's away. Who's going with you?
18:43Well, no-one yet.
18:44I'd go on my own if I could, but I'm just not safe, am I?
18:47Well, I could come.
18:49I've got the day off work.
18:51Really?
18:52Oh, it's sooner that than ask Mackenzie or Mattie.
18:55I'd just like to process things on my own first.
18:58And I'm scared they'll go straight to Cain.
19:01I won't interfere.
19:02I will be there to support you, whatever the outcome.
19:05Thanks, Ness.
19:12I'm off to see Aaron. Thank you for the drink.
19:15Well, you're more than welcome.
19:16Not like you needed it, getting ambushed like that.
19:19Yeah, not exactly what you want bandied about in front of your boss.
19:22Or the mum of the fella you're seeing.
19:24I just don't want any comebacks at the surgery.
19:27Well, I'll try not to worry. I'm sure it'll go over.
19:30Let's hope so.
19:35Right, where were we?
19:36Right, well, I've got the difference between Hercule and Sean.
19:40Hercule and Sherlock.
19:42But there's still not a patch on Miss Marple.
19:45What gives her the edge?
19:47Well, she's a woman, isn't she?
19:49We're just born with that sixth sense that you men can only dream about.
19:53We are like MI5 on oestrogen.
19:55If someone's up to something or trying to hide anything, we just know.
20:00Hey.
20:01Ella, hi. How's things?
20:03I'm not blind, I know that much.
20:06The optician thinks I've just got digital eye strain.
20:09I need the monitor moving and an anti-glare cover over the screen.
20:12Right, well, I'm sure the vets can sort all that out.
20:15I'm glad it's nothing more serious.
20:16I know, right?
20:17So, what have you been up to?
20:19Oh, nothing much. Just boring Chas with idle chit-chats.
20:26Can I get you anything? Do you want a drink or a meal?
20:29I thought we were eating in Dendite later.
20:31Yes, of course. Don't want to ruin our appetites.
20:35Oh, well, I'll have a drink. Gin and tea, please.
20:37And another zero.
20:39Shall we? I'll take him off your hands, Chas.
20:42He can bore me with his chit-chat instead.
20:49So, how's your tummy now?
20:51Better than this morning.
20:52Oh, that's funny, that.
20:56What are you going to do?
20:58About what?
20:59Getting your tablet back off Isaac.
21:02I'm sure I'll think of something.
21:05You said you need it. I can ask him now.
21:07Don't say anything.
21:10I will deal with Isaac when I decide.
