00:36Hey. How's it going?
00:40I've had better nights.
00:43Do you want me to stay?
00:45It's OK. You've done enough.
00:48Go home. Get some sleep.
00:50Well, I'm just next door if you need me, OK?
00:54Thanks, Verona.
00:56Tom.
00:59I just wanted to check and see if there was any update on Piper.
01:02She's not looking good.
01:04What?
01:05Oh, no.
01:07I am so sorry. This is all my fault.
01:10What do you mean?
01:11Well, Piper was with Chip and Monty while we were all at the pub
01:14having a drink for Sam's birthday.
01:16Yeah. Belle told me last night.
01:18She must have got out when I dashed up to get the cake.
01:21Are you sure there's nothing that can be done?
01:24I wish there was.
01:26We were working on her all night.
01:28What can I say to Belle?
01:30She ain't gonna deal with this one.
01:32Anyway, I'd best get up there
01:35and tell her this is all my fault.
01:37No.
01:38I'll speak with her.
01:40It'd be better coming from me.
01:42Thanks, love.
01:49Sarah! Get a shift on!
01:51I would if I knew where we were going.
01:53Well, you've been saying you don't feel like part of the family,
01:55so I thought I'd give you a taste of what it feels like to be a proper dingle.
01:58How?
01:59All you need to know is it ticks every box, yeah?
02:02Danger, excitement, thrills, spills.
02:04Oh, can you just tell me?
02:05No. No, I can't. You'll find out soon enough. Come on.
02:10I don't understand.
02:12You said that you could save her.
02:14I said I would do my best.
02:16Verona was with me all night. We...
02:18We tried everything.
02:20No, there has to be something else that you can do.
02:22She's been through enough, Belle.
02:24We have to think about what's best for her.
02:27You don't want her to suffer.
02:29Do you?
02:31No.
02:33If there was anything else I could do...
02:35Can I see her?
02:37Yeah.
02:39Of course you can.
02:45Piper.
02:47It's OK.
02:50She's not in any pain.
02:53Do you think she can hear me?
02:55Yeah, she can.
02:57Piper.
02:59Hi.
03:01Hi, it's Mummy.
03:03I'm glad we've both got some...
03:05time with her.
03:07You've been the bestest friend
03:10I could ever wish for, and I will miss you so much.
03:14Piper.
03:17Are you OK?
03:21I can't do this.
03:23It's OK. I'm here with you.
03:25No.
03:27I can't have this as my last memory of her.
03:31I'll make it peaceful for her.
03:33I can't.
03:35Piper.
03:37Daddy's going to look after you now.
03:40But I love you so much.
03:44And I am never, ever going to forget you.
03:48So you sleep tight,
03:50my precious girl.
04:03You know, I don't think these figures are right.
04:05We're actually in profit for the first time in months.
04:08Well, that's good.
04:10Everything's coming up roses.
04:13What do you mean by that?
04:15I just noticed that Vinnie's been spending a lot of time at our house.
04:18You know, two nights in a row.
04:20You don't mind, do you?
04:22Of course I don't. He's a lovely lad.
04:24I'm just so pleased you found happiness.
04:27Spot the deliberate mistake.
04:30You're going to have to give me more than that, Jay.
04:33They are both covered in lipstick.
04:36Stick it in the dishwasher, then.
04:38That's a waste of a cycle. More money down the drain.
04:41Well, maybe that's because we're a man down.
04:43Oh, please. Let's not blame falling standards on Matty leaving.
04:47I'm not. I'm blaming it on you not replacing him
04:50because you blew the budget on re-employing Victoria,
04:52who you sacked in the first place, covering your own tracks.
04:54Are you done yet?
04:56No, no, no. I could go on and on and on, but it would be really boring.
04:59How about you be a good girl and clean the glasses like I asked?
05:02And when you've done that, can you go and check on the ladies' toilets, please?
05:05Apparently there was an incident in trap three last night.
05:08What is your problem?
05:10I'm just doing my job.
05:12Really? Cos to me it sounds like you're bullying a member of staff.
05:14Bullying? Are you having a laugh?
05:16I was giving her a heart attack. Not enough for you, Jay.
05:18Oh, you're still trying to pin that on me.
05:20Yeah, cos you're the cause of most of the stress in my life.
05:22Just leave it, all right? I'm not having him speak to you like that.
05:24Of course. Because it's all me, isn't it?
05:27Because, God forbid, the idea that Laurel would ever do anything wrong.
05:31All right, shush.
05:33If you've got any grievances,
05:35why don't you save them for our mediation session on Wednesday, yes?
05:37Because we've only got an hour.
05:39Or I could just start making your life hell here.
05:41Don't worry about it.
05:43Cos you won't have to put up with me for much longer.
05:45If only that were true.
05:47Oh, but it is true. Cos I'm getting out.
05:49I'm selling my shares to the highest bidder.
05:55She's, um...
06:00She's gone.
06:03SHE SNIFFLES
06:06I'm sorry.
06:08I was trying to be strong for you.
06:11It's... It's horrible, isn't it?
06:15I know I could be straight with her, but...
06:18I loved her.
06:21She brought us both so much happiness.
06:25Yeah, she did.
06:27I'm just glad she got that time with you.
06:30Time where she was loved.
06:32Part of her family.
06:34You were the best, Mummy.
06:38I'm gonna miss her so much.
06:45She didn't...
06:47suffer.
06:49I made sure of that.
06:56I, um...
07:00I don't think I could face the rest of the day at work, so...
07:04Do you mind if I walk back, will you?
07:07I'd like that.
07:15Wow.
07:18Enjoy that, babe.
07:20Yeah, that was so fun.
07:22Well, you never got taken out to make a car on your 18th, did you?
07:25Like most of us did.
07:27You know, it feels to be a dingle.
07:29When that police car pulled us over, I thought we were gonna be arrested.
07:32Oh, no.
07:34Do you know what, though? I've got myself out of worse situations.
07:37I wonder why he didn't show up as stolen.
07:40Yeah, I know.
07:42Maybe it just hasn't been reported yet.
07:45So what do we do now, torch it?
07:47What? No!
07:49No, no, no, this was a one-off.
07:51Oh, no, come on, I wanna do more mad dingle stuff.
07:54Oh, do you? What do you think Grumpy'd have to say if he knew?
07:57Well, he doesn't have to find out.
07:59No, babe.
08:00Once only opportunity to steal a car and joyride it through the back streets of Hotton.
08:05Like the generations of dingle women that went before you.
08:09You see?
08:10You are a dingle.
08:16She's not gonna do any work today at all.
08:18Well, she owns a place, so she can do what she likes.
08:21Part owns it, and spends most of her days flirting with customers.
08:24Well, he seems to be liking it. I mean, he does flirt with everyone.
08:28I don't care. It is not workplace appropriate.
08:31Well, you're not gonna have to worry about that soon,
08:33because you're gonna be selling your stolen shares.
08:35Stolen?
08:37Oh, have you forgotten? You blackmailed Amit for them.
08:39Amit stole my dad's inheritance.
08:42Oh, sorry, are you trying to rewrite history?
08:45Or have you developed a guilty conscience after all these years?
08:48You know what, Laurel? You don't get to slag off my decisions anymore.
08:51Well, I'm not criticising this one, because I think it's gonna be a great move for both of us.
08:55Is, um, Gabby around?
08:58Er, yeah, she'll be a sec.
09:00If she can drag herself away.
09:02Who's that she's talking to?
09:03Oh, just one of the customers, love.
09:05Oh, Laurel, grab us a beer, will you?
09:07Just lost a bet to Handsome Chris.
09:09Who?
09:10Handsome Chris.
09:11That he couldn't row across the lake with one oar.
09:13Anyway, what can I get you?
09:14Well, I was gonna see if you had time for a coffee,
09:16but, you know, if you're too busy handing free drinks out to Handsome Chris...
09:20Oh, my God, are you jealous?
09:22No.
09:23Yes, you are.
09:24What do you expect?
09:25Mate, I'm not interested in divvies like him.
09:28I'm interested in cute little nerds like you.
09:30You sure about that?
09:31Yes, otherwise I wouldn't let you stay last night.
09:34Yeah, about that, um, I know it wasn't exactly...
09:38I just, I find it weird, you know, when Laurel and everyone's in the house, it's...
09:42Vinnie, it's fine.
09:43Gabrielle?
09:44Where's my beer?
09:46I've been summoned.
09:47Look, grab yourself a coffee, all right?
09:49I won't be a sec.
09:57I still can't believe it.
10:00Me neither.
10:02You'd think I'd be used to it, the amount of devastated dog owners I've had to deal with.
10:07I guess it hits harder when it's your own pet.
10:09Yeah, of course it does.
10:12You've both got a tricky few weeks coming up,
10:16so if you need someone there while you get your head around everything...
10:19No, I'll be fine.
10:22Will you, though?
10:23I mean, you have to be aware of how this might affect you.
10:27Affect me?
10:28Your mental health.
10:30I've got that all under control.
10:32Have you?
10:33Yes.
10:35Belle, we both know how difficult you find it to deal with loss.
10:40You have to be mindful of your own state of mind.
10:43You shouldn't be on your own.
10:45If you need someone with you in the house...
10:48Oh, my God.
10:50It was you.
10:53Er, what?
10:54It was you, wasn't it?
10:56You've killed her.
10:57You've run her over.
11:11I mean, where is this even coming from?
11:13I know it was you.
11:15You've used her against me before, that time she got ill when I was in the unit.
11:18What are you talking about?
11:19Well, she made a miraculous recovery the minute I got back.
11:21It all makes sense now.
11:22Belle, this is all in your head.
11:24No, it isn't. You killed her.
11:26How could you? What has she ever done to you?
11:28Is everything OK?
11:29No.
11:30You left your hoodie.
11:31Tom! Tom did it.
11:33He killed Piper.
11:34What?
11:35It's fine. I'm dealing with it.
11:37He let her out and then he ran her over deliberately.
11:39She was being looked after at Sam and Lydia's
11:41and then I found her at the side of the road.
11:43He's done this to me before. He uses her against me.
11:45Belle, I loved her just as much as you did.
11:48No, you didn't.
11:49You locked her up outside.
11:51She's just upset.
11:52Belle, love, it was a random accident.
11:54Tom's upset. You're just the same as you are.
11:56He never left her side last night.
11:58He's planned the whole thing.
11:59Come on, let's get you inside.
12:01No, don't touch me!
12:03I will never forgive you for this.
12:05Never.
12:08Do you want me to get someone?
12:10She just needs to calm down.
12:23Are you sure we should be leaving this out here?
12:25I thought you were in the shower.
12:26What if Grumpy sees it?
12:28Yeah, you're right.
12:30Let's get back inside and talk about it.
12:31You all right, ladies?
12:32Come on.
12:33How'd you get on?
12:34Yeah, burned some rubber.
12:35Not now, really.
12:36She's got some power, don't she?
12:37When you let the old frotter out.
12:39What?
12:40The car.
12:41How would you know?
12:42Just ignore him.
12:43It's just a car banner, isn't it?
12:44Well, because I've been having it.
12:45I said not now, Vinnie.
12:47You can't have it stolen.
12:48Come on, let's get you back inside.
12:49It's not stolen.
12:50It's my friend Joey's.
12:51What?
12:52Flipping heck, Vinnie!
12:54Do you not have an off switch?
12:56So you didn't steal the car?
12:57Why would you need to steal it when your gran's got keys?
12:59Do you know what? I knew it.
13:00I knew something wasn't right when that copper stopped us.
13:02The police stopped you?
13:03And that's why you had my own lookout, isn't it?
13:05When you broke in and stole the keys.
13:06Broke in? What are you talking about?
13:08Flipping heck, Vinnie, will you just shut up?
13:11Okay, fine. Do you know what? I did it to make you happy.
13:14To make you feel part of the family, feel like you belong.
13:17Did you not listen to a word that I said yesterday?
13:19Yes!
13:20You told me you wanted some excitement.
13:22No, I said I don't want to be treated like a kid.
13:24I'm 19 years old, gran.
13:26And look, I know I've got this horrible illness hanging over me,
13:28but right now, I feel okay.
13:30And I just want to enjoy my time as a normal 19-year-old while I still can.
13:35I'm okay. I'm sorry, I just...
13:37Don't worry.
13:38Yeah, well, you don't need to.
13:39Look, yeah, I might have this mad dingo side,
13:41but I'm not gonna be out stealing cars every night.
13:43I've got my subs inside to keep me grounded.
13:45I am tearing up here.
13:49Here.
13:52Why don't you take Gabby out for a drive?
13:54That'll get her motor running.
13:55And what's that supposed to mean?
13:57Well, you know, just that...
13:59Well, she might be hard to please
14:01with someone with such little experience as herself.
14:04Well, she's been round the block a lot, hasn't she?
14:06And Vinnie...
14:07I haven't got a clue what he's doing.
14:09Well, I never actually...
14:10It's fine. I know exactly what you meant.
14:16Hey.
14:19You could probably do with something a bit stronger, but...
14:22I will do for now.
14:25Listen, Tom, if you want me to deal with the body...
14:28No. I'll sort it. She was my dog.
14:34Thank you for sticking around last night.
14:36It meant a lot.
14:38Sorry. I'm still trying to get my head around it.
14:40I don't want you thinking badly of Belle.
14:42If you like, I could talk to her.
14:44It won't make a difference.
14:45Just please don't hold it against her.
14:47Oh, I won't. I won't.
14:48But it is a lot, you know?
14:51And I can see how much pressure you must have been under when you were together.
14:55One minute she was OK, and the next she just flips,
14:57and then there's no talking to her.
14:59That must have been really hard for you to deal with.
15:02But it doesn't matter how many times she shouts and screams,
15:05says crazy things and attacks me. I still love her.
15:08Oh, Tom. Poor thing.
15:12But she doesn't want me in her life, so...
15:16I have to accept that.
15:19But you don't need to worry about me.
15:21I'll have a chat with Lydia, get her to tell Belle what's happened.
15:24I don't want this affecting our reputation.
15:26Yeah, that's probably a good idea.
15:27Look, don't even think about coming back in this afternoon, OK?
15:30Just take some time to gather yourself
15:32and allow yourself to feel sad about Piper.
15:35I know how much you love that dog.
15:38Thank you, Rhona.
15:40It's good to have someone like you in my corner.
15:46Taking another break already, I see?
15:48Just what I'm entitled to.
15:50Well, our side's looking a bit scruffy when you can finally be bothered.
15:53Oh, give it a rest, Jay.
15:54You know, Gabby might be happy to pay you for doing nothing.
15:58I'm not.
16:01See, Jay's keeping up the charm offensive.
16:03I can't wait till he goes.
16:05Yeah.
16:07Although that'll bring a whole new set of problems.
16:09Hmm?
16:11I've just got off the phone to Kim in Dubai.
16:14She's not interested in buying your shares.
16:16Oh, come!
16:17She says I'm more than capable of finding my own solution.
16:22Hang on, can you not buy back the shares yourself
16:25with the money that Amit paid you?
16:27No, I put all of that away in Thomas' trust fund.
16:29Can't touch it, it's locked away.
16:30What does that mean, then?
16:32Jay holds all the cards.
16:34He can sell them to whoever he likes.
16:39What happened?
16:40Belle, I am so sorry.
16:42I thought she'd be OK with Chip and Monty.
16:45Did Tom not explain?
16:46Just please tell me what's happened.
16:48I know I should have told you myself, but...
16:50Was he here?
16:55No.
16:56Belle!
16:58I'm sure he wasn't here, he wasn't at the house.
17:00The lock on the door's broken.
17:01It mustn't have shut when I came back to get Sam's cake.
17:04Chip and Monty noticed it in the yard.
17:06Belle, it's OK.
17:07No, stay away from me!
17:09I think she's having some kind of relapse.
17:11Have you taken your medication?
17:13It was him.
17:14He let her out and then he killed her.
17:16No, sweetheart, it was me.
17:18I was here on my own, I left the door open.
17:21Tom was nowhere to be seen.
17:23Belle, do you really think so little of me
17:25that you'd accuse me of something like that?
17:28All right, come on, I know this is all getting a bit too much.
17:31I'll look after her.
17:32I know it was him.
17:33Let's get you home.
17:38Isn't it time to switch off, love?
17:40Yeah, I'm just trying to work out how much disposable income I've got,
17:43which is not a lot.
17:45Oh, this is so frustrating.
17:46You know, I finally turned the business around
17:48and Jay just wants to sell to the highest bidder.
17:50Or whoever's going to make the biggest mess of things.
17:53Oh, you don't think he'll do that, do you?
17:55I wouldn't put anything past him.
17:58You know, and it should have never sold to Amit.
18:00Such a mistake.
18:01Well, at least you got rid of Jay.
18:02Yeah, and what if he just sells to someone, you know, like Caleb,
18:05who just wants to take over everything?
18:07There is another solution.
18:09What?
18:10I buy the shares.
18:12You?
18:13I know you've helped me buy this place,
18:15but I could call the bank manager and see if I can remortgage.
18:19You know, it's a possibility, isn't it?
18:21I know the business is inside out, and, um...
18:24Well, I mean, that's, of course, if you'd want me to, you know...
18:27Laurel, oh, my God, there is absolutely no-one else
18:30I'd rather go into business with.
18:32I'm 100% in favour of you buying Jay's shares.
18:34OK?
18:36Leave it with me.
18:42Before you kick off, I just came by to give you this.
18:45I thought you might want to keep it.
18:48Is that it?
18:52I'm just trying to keep things amicable between us, Belle.
18:55She was my dog too, you know.
18:58How can you even say that?
19:00Look, I don't know what happened to Piper,
19:02but it had nothing to do with me.
19:05Just go.
19:11What did I do that was so wrong, Belle?
19:14I can't even discuss it.
19:17All I ever did was take care of you.
19:19You can try and twist everything I say, Tom,
19:22but it's not going to work anymore.
19:24It's all in your head. No, it's not.
19:27Because I can see you...
19:30..for what you are.
19:33And I can see what you've done to me.
19:36You are nothing but a sick, manipulative bully,
19:41and I can't be anywhere near you.
19:43Do you understand?
19:45I can't even stand in this room with you
19:47cos you are making my skin crawl.
19:50So get out of my house.
19:52Have you even got an ounce of gratitude,
19:54you ungrateful, self-obsessed bitch?
19:58All I ever did was love you,
20:00and this is how you're going to repay me?
20:03You didn't love me.
20:05You wanted to control me.
20:07Look around you. Who do you think shelled out for all this?
20:10Constantly showered you in presents,
20:12and all you did was whine about that stupid dog.
20:17When...you couldn't even care for her
20:20until it suited you. Don't you dare!
20:24She meant more to me than you ever have.
20:27Oh, why are you doing this to me?
20:30I don't love you.
20:34I did.
20:37But you have killed any feelings I ever had for you.
20:43You're going to regret this.
20:45Do you know that?
20:46I'm not.
20:49Because I am done with this.
20:52And I am done with you.
20:55You want out of our marriage?
20:58Bring it on.
21:01Let's see how that works out for you.
21:04Hmm?
21:12Shh.
