00:00Where are you, Ruby? We can't sort this out if you won't even speak to me. Call me back
00:18when you get this, please. All right? Here. It's all ready to sign.
00:29You don't hang about, do you? Well, can you afford to keep losing money?
00:39I'll need to read it first. Well, it's everything we agreed.
00:42I still want to go over the small print. Oh, why not just get it over and done with?
00:46This is a good deal for both of us. I'm handing over all my shares.
00:51You're also clearing your debts and setting yourself up for the future.
00:54Look, your business is failing, Jimmy. I'm doing you a big favour here.
00:59You're also taking advantage of my misfortune. Still, I suppose that's the way my family
01:04built up the business back in the day. All's fair, as they say.
01:08Look, I'm late for a delivery. I'll be back at lunchtime, we'll sign everything
01:12over and you can transfer the funds. Right.
01:15I thought you'd be happier. You're getting everything you want.
01:20Quite everything. So you're still helping yourself to my food?
01:38You begrudge me a slice of toast? Anyone with an ounce of self-respect would
01:42have moved out by now. Yeah, well, I'm going nowhere until I get
01:46what is rightfully mine. Do what you like, but I haven't got time
01:49for your petty games today. Dawn and Billy have invited me for a family
01:54trip out in their new car. You know, giving them handouts doesn't make
02:00you family. You really do think that money can buy you
02:03love, don't you? You're living proof that's not true.
02:07That'll be them now. I'd invite you along, but they don't want
02:12to see you any more than I do. You're not eating that?
02:20Probably not, no. Oh, not like you to leave sausages on your
02:24plate. What's that supposed to mean?
02:26Just making an observation. What, are you trying to food shame me or something?
02:30No, I wasn't, really. Sorry. No, no, I'm sorry, I'm just... I'm not myself
02:35today. Why not?
02:36Because I'm annoyed with people asking me stupid questions!
02:38I'd back off while he still can. Just two coffees to go, please, Rodders.
02:42Vinnie, come and join us. Oh, no, I can't. Sam's waiting, Ben. We're
02:46just fetching some parcels Debbie sent down from Scotland. You know, Zach's stuff.
02:50Oh, he'll be sorely missed. I heard the burial was eventful. Somebody carted off by the police?
02:57Yeah, Tina. Born to herself. Oh, sounds like my kind of woman.
03:02You never have been choosy. Choosy's overrated.
03:06Has she always been such a car crash? I... I don't really know her.
03:11Well, you must if you've kept in touch all these years. So what's she like? You never
03:14spoke about her. Well, there's no need to tell. She's in trouble.
03:16That's all you need to know. Right, I need to get to the salon.
03:19Oh, before you go, Gabby's invited round tomorrow to Home Farm for some cocktails.
03:22Very fancy. I'm sorry, I don't have time for that.
03:25Well, I told her you'd come now. Untell her, then!
03:30What's up with her? Is it Gabby? Why would you say that?
03:33Well, she thinks Mum doesn't like her and I've said she's been stupid, but maybe she's right.
03:40Hey, alright? Not bad for seeing you.
03:43You've heard, then? How could you blackmail a dying woman?
03:47I'm not proud of what I did. Who would be?
03:49Look, Ruby didn't come home last night. I don't suppose you know where she is, do you?
03:52Not a clue. Then why have you poured two mugs of tea?
03:55Well, come on, Chas. I just want to talk to her and explain myself.
04:00Why should I ever believe another word you say to me?
04:02Look, erm, I didn't know that Helen was gonna die so soon.
04:06I heard she was on her deathbed, mate.
04:07Will you just put out so I can talk to Ruby?
04:09Don't get strappy with me!
04:11Sorry. Well, just hear me out.
04:14Let me explain what happened and then, if you still want nothing to do with me, that's fair enough.
04:18You've got five minutes.
04:26Didn't travel light, did it?
04:29These are all Dad's things. Debbie sent them.
04:31Oh, she left some flowers and all. I found them up downstairs.
04:33Oh, that were nice of her.
04:35Not as nice as bothering to come to Dad's funeral.
04:38We all cope in our own way, love.
04:40Mate, you're perfect, Sam.
04:42What have I done?
04:43You didn't tell me that Dad knew about Tom.
04:45I don't get why you didn't just speak to me about it.
04:48Dad only kept quiet cos Cain told him how well you were handling it.
04:51He was just trying to look out for you, love. Maybe.
04:54Well, it'll take a while to sort all this out.
04:57We don't have to do it today if you don't feel up to it.
04:59No, I want to.
05:01Right, I'll bung those in a vase.
05:03Strange, that.
05:05What?
05:06Well, there's no note.
05:08Debbie would have written one, surely.
05:10Who are they from, then?
05:11I don't know.
05:12They're from Tom and I don't want them in the house.
05:14Let's not jump to any conclusions.
05:16Tom's been keeping his distance. Maybe he's got the message.
05:18He's been biding his time more like the roses.
05:20He would always buy me roses and I kept telling him I didn't like them but he'd buy me them anyway.
05:24This is him messing with my head yet again.
05:26Belle!
05:29Ruby, I promise you, the only reason I took Helen's money was for us.
05:35It was for our future.
05:38I mean, let's have it right, it's not like she ever supported you financially when she was alive.
05:43You still lied to me.
05:45You said she called me those names. How do you think that made me feel?
05:48I'm sorry.
05:50I should never, ever have done that. I went too far.
05:54But that money, that was the least that you deserved.
05:57And yeah, maybe I could have worsed her but when did she ever give you anything out of the goodness of her heart?
06:03It was true, innit?
06:06She really cared about you. She'd have shown it years ago.
06:11Me and you.
06:13We're a real family.
06:15I thought we were.
06:17Everything I ever do, the car I have franchised, the new depot, it's all to give you the life you deserved.
06:25And now, thanks to your mum, I can actually do that.
06:28I've got the money to buy out Jimmy.
06:31And I'm telling you, as soon as Jimmy signs it over, we'll be richer than we ever imagined.
06:37How do I know I can trust you?
06:41I let you down in the past.
06:44Recently more than ever but that will never happen again, I promise.
06:50And I know that we fall out from time to time.
06:53Understatement.
06:55But we always get back together, don't we?
06:57Because me and you belong to each other.
07:01You know, I don't think your mum and dad ever wanted you to be happy, so the way that I see it, this is payback.
07:10It's payback for when they tried to pay me off.
07:13What? When did they do that?
07:16When we were younger, we first got together.
07:19Your dad, he gave me a big fat envelope full of money, told me to do one.
07:26I refused.
07:28And he doubled the offer.
07:29Why have you never told me this?
07:30Because it doesn't matter.
07:32As soon as he did that, my mind was made up, I wanted to get you as far away from that toxic pair as possible.
07:39Weren't you tempted to take the cash?
07:42I love you.
07:44You can't put a price on that.
07:48You should have taken it anyway, just to spite them.
07:51Yeah, I should have done.
07:54I suppose that's why I wasn't going to miss out this time.
07:58Especially at seeing us now with Helen's payout.
08:03We're in a position to rebuild our own family.
08:08You always win me round.
08:10Because you mean the world to me, you always will.
08:14I'm hoping you feel the same.
08:18You know I do.
08:21But that doesn't mean I should just forgive you just like that.
08:24I know, and I know it's going to take time.
08:29But I'm ready to do whatever it takes to get the trust back.
08:33If you'll let me.
08:38Help!
08:40What do you reckon?
08:42Paul seems a bit bored to me.
08:45I thought Caleb might be trying to pull a fast one, but I guess he doesn't need to, he's got me over a barrel.
08:54I'm surprised you can afford to eat in here.
08:56It's Jimmy's treat.
08:58Typical Will, always looking for a freebie.
09:03Oh, I'll take two of those gums and three cupcakes, please.
09:06You're hungry.
09:07They're for Dawn, Billy and the kids.
09:09Spent the morning hunting for conkers. Built up quite an appetite.
09:14Good trip out, was it?
09:16All the better for not having you in the car with us.
09:19How are Lucas and Clemmie?
09:21Thriving.
09:23Tell them I miss them.
09:25Well, they definitely don't miss you.
09:36She really doesn't like you, does she?
09:43Is there absolutely no chance of you two making peace?
09:46Sometimes you just have to admit defeat.
09:51Talking of which...
09:53On the bright side, it solves all your money worries.
09:56Yeah.
09:58I just won't have a haulage company anymore.
10:01Maybe it's best for everyone.
10:04It saves me from bankruptcy, but it's a big price to pay.
10:20Are you for real?
10:23Belle.
10:25Hi.
10:28I'm so sorry to hear about your dad.
10:30I don't need anything from you, especially not these.
10:34You think I sent them?
10:35Who else sends me roses?
10:38Are you practically admitting it?
10:40Come on, Belle. Losing the plot over a bunch of flowers?
10:43Just admit you sent me them.
10:45Look, I'm sure Zak's death has knocked you for six,
10:48but that's no excuse to start accusing me of things that you have no proof of.
10:54You need to pull yourself back together.
10:56Do you want to end up back in the secure unit?
10:59What?
11:01You are a seriously troubled young woman,
11:05and honestly, I feel sorry for you.
11:08I'm not letting you do this. I'm not letting you wind me up.
11:10You just need to stay away from me.
11:12Belle, aren't you the one that just hunted me down?
11:17That's a direct infringement on your bail conditions.
11:22You want my advice?
11:24Scurry on home while you can.
11:54Here.
12:12A little something to seal the deal.
12:14Fancy.
12:15I like to look after my mates.
12:16Don't you just?
12:18Was it signed?
12:19I've got one better than that.
12:25What's this?
12:26It's your contract.
12:28Is this a wind-up?
12:30When you agreed to buy me out,
12:32you failed to mention a five-year deal you'd set up with a new depot.
12:37I don't know what you're on about.
12:38Don't try and deny it.
12:40I won't be taken for a mug.
12:42That deal saves me from bankruptcy
12:45and sets this company back on its feet again,
12:47thanks, but no thanks.
12:49I can easily cancel it.
12:51No, you can't.
12:53It's signed, sealed and delivered.
12:55All right.
12:57Who have you been talking to?
12:59Somebody who's as sick of your self-serving plans as I am.
13:04Come on, mate, it's still a good deal.
13:06Forget it.
13:07Deal's off.
13:10Thanks for this.
13:18Oh, sorry.
13:20Hiya.
13:21Did you fancy lunch?
13:22I'm too busy.
13:23All right.
13:24Like you're too busy for Gabby's cocktail party tomorrow.
13:26You have never knowingly turned down a pina colada, ever.
13:28I can go to my family's pub for that.
13:30I don't need to go to Kim Tate's.
13:31You're gonna go and see Gabby, not Kim.
13:33Vinnie's really upset, you know.
13:35Thinks you don't like his girlfriend.
13:37That's utter nonsense, right?
13:39I like Gabby.
13:41She's a millionaire.
13:42Who doesn't want a millionaire in the family?
13:43So why are you in such a strop today, then?
13:45Is it something I've done?
13:47Of course not.
13:51Something's bothering you.
13:54I just...
13:56I can't bear the thought of losing Vin.
13:58Why would you?
13:59Because I'm not his real mum, am I?
14:01And hey,
14:03Vinnie adores you.
14:05You're the only mum he's ever known.
14:07You've been amazing.
14:08And he'd be the first to say it.
14:09Well, maybe if that Gabby
14:11is never gonna take your place in his heart,
14:13you should be happy for him.
14:15I am.
14:17Truly.
14:19It's not that.
14:21What is it, then?
14:22It's nothing. I'm...
14:24I'm being silly.
14:26Well, don't.
14:28He loves you to bits.
14:30And he always will.
14:32Come here.
14:35Come here.
14:45Cheers for that, Ruby.
14:47What?
14:49Jimmy's backed out of the deal.
14:51Why?
14:52You tell me.
14:54What, you think I had something to do with it?
14:56But who else knew what I was planning?
14:58You know what, Caleb, think what you like.
15:00Oi, so you're denying it?
15:02I've been here making us lunch.
15:04Did Jimmy or anyone else come to that?
15:06Then who told him?
15:07How would I know?
15:09Well, it's Will, then.
15:11It's gotta be.
15:13I should never have trusted him.
15:15What do you know about trust?
15:17All right, look, come here.
15:19No.
15:20I wish I had told Jimmy now.
15:22So much for making things up to me.
15:24Don't be like this.
15:25You talk about wanting to rebuild trust.
15:27And now, before we've even had lunch,
15:29you're having a go at me for something I would never dream of doing.
15:32All right?
15:33I don't want you to be sorry.
15:34I just want you to get out.
15:45Did your dad ever wash his clothes?
15:47Not him personally, no.
15:49Here, have a whiff of that.
15:53Smells all right to me.
15:57Hiya, love.
15:58You've been gone a while.
15:59Are you checking up on me?
16:01Lydia's just been caring.
16:04Why are you wearing that?
16:06What, does it suit me?
16:07No.
16:08No, it's dad's.
16:10Take it off now!
16:13What?
16:14You seem troubled, love.
16:15Yeah, I am.
16:16Because Tom's just denied that he sent the flowers.
16:19You did go and see him.
16:20Weren't you supposed to be keeping your distance?
16:22Why are you having a go at me?
16:23It was him, I could see it in his eyes.
16:25No one's having a go at you, love.
16:27He's the one in the wrong.
16:28We know, and he's gonna get what's coming.
16:30Is he?
16:31Because right now I feel like he's just laughing in my face.
16:34It'll be all right.
16:35No, it won't.
16:37I just wish dad was here.
16:40We all wish that.
16:41But we're all here for you, love.
16:43We're gonna look after you.
16:44Why?
16:45Because I'm some weirdo that needs looking after.
16:48That's not what we meant.
16:49I don't need anyone.
16:51I only need my dad, and he's not here.
16:53Hey, come here.
16:54No, leave me alone.
16:56Belle!
16:57Don't.
16:59Leave her.
17:00I can't leave it like this.
17:01She's grieving.
17:02We all are.
17:04Just give her some space.
17:05She'll calm down.
17:06What if she doesn't, though?
17:08What if something else goes wrong for her?
17:10Well, let's pray it doesn't.
17:14Paddy says you want to see me.
17:16Oh.
17:18I owe you an apology.
17:20I might have been a bit...
17:21Ew.
17:22...this morning.
17:23Rude, I'd call it.
17:24I've just had a lot on my mind, and...
17:25You don't have to like Gabby.
17:26It's not a problem.
17:27Look, I do like her.
17:28That's not what she reckons.
17:30I don't know where she's got that from.
17:31Yes, you do, Mum.
17:32Right, yes, right.
17:33She's a bit...
17:34...high and mighty, you know.
17:35She gets that from her mum, but come on.
17:37I mean, I'm hardly perfect, am I?
17:39Can't argue with that.
17:40Look, I am really chuffed that the pair of you are together.
17:43Mum!
17:44And if the offer still stands...
17:47...I'd like to come for cocktails tomorrow.
17:49Oh.
17:50Great.
17:51I can't promise I won't embarrass you.
17:52Not you there, then.
17:53What's that supposed to mean?
17:54It's a joke.
17:55Mums are meant to embarrass us.
17:56That's why we love them.
17:58And I love you too, sweetheart.
18:01And what's brought all this on?
18:02No, I...
18:04I'm just so lucky...
18:06...to call you my son.
18:07And whatever happens, right...
18:09...nothing changes that.
18:10Why, what's gonna happen?
18:11Nothing, it's just a turn of phrase.
18:13You're a bit of a weird sometimes, you know that?
18:16Right, well, I'll, er...
18:17...I'll let Gabby know the good news.
18:26Mmm.
18:28Cracking steak, girl.
18:29Make sure you give Marlon my compliments.
18:31His head's big enough.
18:36What's he so pleased about?
18:38How would I know?
18:40Well, I thought you went in with Polly.
18:41You saw it wrong.
18:45Go on, then.
18:47Spill the beans.
18:49What?
18:50Well, Chas has been proper sounding off about you.
18:52Well, Chas has been proper sounding off about you.
18:54What's she say again?
18:55Morally bankrupt...
18:57...devious...
18:58...and self-obsessed.
19:00I'm paraphrasing, but you get the gist.
19:02So what have you done this time?
19:04Why is that any of your business?
19:06Well, I'm a barmaid.
19:07Everything's my business.
19:10Same again?
19:11No.
19:13You've got some nerve, haven't ya?
19:14Showing your face.
19:15Has he? Why?
19:16Just a pint, please, love.
19:19Make that two.
19:23Urgh.
19:24Right, I've just gotta go and change a barrel.
19:26I'll be right back.
19:27Fine by me.
19:28No rush.
19:29How could you stitch me up like that
19:31after I gave you all that money for a decent divorce lawyer?
19:33He was no good.
19:34Kim's still hell-bent on kicking me out of the house.
19:37I should've never come to you for help.
19:38Yeah, but you did.
19:39And now you've betrayed me.
19:41I couldn't do it to Jimmy.
19:42He's a mate.
19:43Oh, you reckon, do ya?
19:44You've got to know where your loyalty's at.
19:47What was loyalty to you, now?
19:49Your missus has kicked you to the curb, and guess what?
19:52You've just kissed goodbye to your job.
19:53Well, at least my conscience is clear.
19:55Oh, nice one.
19:56You keep telling yourself that when you're dossing in the shop doorway.
20:06I've, er, ordered you another, but...
20:08girl's just changing barrel.
20:10I'm not stopping.
20:11Don't be like this, Jimmy.
20:13You were prepared to sell me down the river.
20:16I could've lost my hoardage company because of you.
20:18But when push came to shove, I didn't, did I?
20:20Yeah.
20:21I suppose I should thank you for that.
20:23No sweat.
20:24That's what friends are for.
20:26Friends?
20:27You and me?
20:29That ship has sailed.
20:31Jimmy!
20:35Two pints, was it?
20:37Just one, please.
20:44What am I supposed to do, Dad?
20:47I can't take much more of this.
20:49Tom won't leave me alone.
20:52I never know what he's going to do next.
20:57Hi.
20:58Can you put me through to DS Foy?
21:01This is Tom King.
21:02He knows me.
21:04I'd like to report a bail infringement.
