Oh, yes.

You sure you're good to look after him again?

Yep, I've got the whole day off.

Kamil and Chacha, say "Chacha".

Chacha.

We're going to spend some quality time together,

before the flight tomorrow, innit?

OK, I'll leave you both to it then.

OK, no rush. Say, "No rush." No rush.

You might want to pop in on Carol before your round. Carol?

Well, in case you'd forgotten, there's a cuckoo in the nest.

Bye. Bye!

So does Mum know Granddad's here? Your mum's got enough to contend with.

You seriously expect me and him to keep this a secret, don't you?

Bianca would be on the first train home. Is that's what you want? So why did he get beat up?

Never you mind. I bet he deserved it. DOORBELL RINGING

Just eat your breakfast, the pair of you.

I thought you were at work? Yeah, I thought I'd walk the kids to school.

No, no, no, Liam can do that. Tiff! Morgan! Come on, you're going to be late.

It's really not a problem. I thought you'd want to spend some time with Kamil.

I do, but he's not going home till tomorrow. I can see you've got your hands full.

I can manage it. You've got to walk the kids to school, Liam. Come on. What? No way!

No, I never asked for this to happen. Why are you letting him stay?

Well, it's just for a few more days.

I thought it was only for the night?

The man can barely walk.

I mean, I can hardly throw him out on the street, can I?

I mean, what would Bianca say?

You lost something, Mrs Branning? Yes, my church keys.

Well, I mean, I ain't lost them. They're here somewhere.

I just CAN'T remember where I put them.

You are going to wear yourself out with all this fund-raising.

Yes, well, people don't realise what the duties of a Church Warden are.

I mean, it's defeated better people than me.

Ah. What was that? What?

No, I've got to get to the launderette.

And it would be a small help if you could clear up after yourself.

Hi. Hey.

I just left you a message.

Oh, yeah, I was just about to call you. Yeah.

I think I might have left my wristwatch...at yours, last night.

Oh, right. Maybe, like, under a pillow, or something.

OK, I'll keep an eye out.

Erm, I need to get Scarlett to nursery.

OK, well, yeah, I've got to crack on as well, so... OK.

Catch up later. Yeah. OK. OK.

Should be in hospital. Yeah, well, try telling David that.

The man's been beaten up.

I am perfectly capable of looking after him myself.

Why do you bother? He never had time for us.

Yeah, that's not really helping, Whitney. Fine. I'll leave you to it.

If you've got a problem with David being here...

No, I haven't got a problem. It's your call.

OK, well, as soon as he can manage it, he'll be out that door.

Right.

See you. Bye.

Hey, Mrs B! I'm loving your swagger today.

Yes, well, I ain't got time to stop and chat.

Oh, that church roof is certainly keeping you busy, eh?

What are you implying?

Nothing, I was just, you know, I was just saying that you must be close to that magic target.

Yes, well I ain't got all the figures,

not off the top of me head but...

Well, if you'll excuse me, I've got to open up the launderette.

OK, Mrs B.

Oh! So...you and Alice, huh?

What about us? Well, it was looking pretty promising

when we left you in the Vic?

And judging by that smile on your face?

We went back to hers.

FATS SHREIKS AND GIGGLES

You done the naughty!

You the man. That's my boy, right there. That's my BOY!

So, tell me, was it worth the wait?

Huh? HUH? Come on, talk to me.

Bruv, don't... Ah! You!

I'm not really sure we did connect. It was all just a bit...

What, predictable?

Maybe I'm just expecting too much.

Well, I suppose you have only got Michael to compare him to.

Exactly.

And I imagine Michael was a little less...conventional.

I like Tamwar, I do, and he's sweet and he's caring...

But the earth never moved.

Mm-mm. I dunno, maybe we're just not compatible?

See you later. See you.

You're awake then? Yeah, I heard the kids.

I thought you'd forgotten me. I've been busy.

Here you are. Stick those up there, will ya?

I put your shirt in to soak. You got blood on the collar.

Ta.

I must look like a right sight, don't I?

I'm going to pop over the cafe and pick up my wages.

Is there anything I can get you?

Not unless you're paying.

How are you feeling?

I've been worse. Right, well, you know what, you should really see a doctor.

They'd only ask questions.

Well, let me just phone up the surgery and get you checked over. No!

I don't want the police getting involved.

Yeah, well, I wonder why? Was that your friend at the door?

Yeah, yeah, he often pops over first thing.

Bet he's pleased I'm still here.

Yeah, well, I told him you weren't staying long.

Well, it's a chance for me to get to know the family better, innit? Family?

You've seen Bianca once in 16 years. You're a stranger to those kids.

Well...we've all got some catching up to do then, ain't we?

Well, don't you dare go making promises you can't keep. You'll only disappoint them.

Nice to know you've got such faith in me, Carol(!)

I might be letting you stay but that doesn't mean I've forgiven you.

OK, so I messed up.

You turned up on my doorstep with another man's wife!

I wanted to see Bianca. Oh, save it, David. I wanted to see you!

You were going to buy our daughter off with stolen cash!

You let a gang of thugs into my house!

I meant what I said, Carol...

I still love you.

You just can't help yourself, can you?

Trouble follows you wherever you go.

Once upon a time that was just what you liked about me.

Yeah, well...maybe I've grown up.

There you go, all right? Your boy is going to love them.

Cheers, darling. You take care. All right. Ta-ta.

Fats. Yes, baby? Yes, baby? Have you spoken to Tamwar?

Oh, man, I have not seen him so happy.

That is...not good.

Hey, listen, it took them a while to do the deed, yeah?

But now he has there's not going to be no stopping him.

I wouldn't be so sure about that. What you talking about, baby?

Alice mentioned there might be some issues.

Issues?!

In the bedroom department.

Wait, are you saying that the lady didn't have a good time?

She's convinced it's never going to work.

Wow, this is seriously going to crush him.

You know, Scorpio - Aquarius.

I mean, it was always fraught with potential pitfalls.

Well, maybe I should say something to him, you know? Like what?

"I hear you are a flop in bed?"

Somebody's got to burst his love bubble. Yeah, OK.

I think that should be Alice.

I've got to go. I'll see you in a bit, yeah. OK.

You all right, Dot? Why shouldn't I be?

I was only asking.

Yes well, I've got to get back. I'm snowed under today.

Rushed off me feet. Well, I've told you about doing too much.

Well, certain people take advantage of my good nature.

We talking about the church?

"The road to Hell is paved with good intentions."

You try to do a good deed and people don't see it that way.

Sorry, sorry, you've lost me, Dot.

It's Sharon. She asked me to babysit...

and I was ever so tired, you know,

what with the carry on at St Cuthbert's.

Right, so you've fallen out with Sharon? Why?

Well, I shouldn't have shouted at Dennis.

I mean, he used to be such a nice little boy

and suddenly he's become quite a handful.

I'm sure if you just said sorry...

She won't even give me the time of day.

Right, I'll talk to her.

No, I'd rather you didn't interfere.

Anyway, I've got to get back. I've got to compose me letter.

You know, inform the Parish Council of me decision.

What decision?

Well, I'm going to tender my resignation...as a Church Warden.

Nobody wants you to resign, Dot.

Yes, well, I thought you'd be pleased.

I just thought you should slow down a bit.

Yes, well, I shall tell the vicar personally.

That's if he ever deigns to answer my phone calls.

How much is this? Two pounds, please.

Hi. Hi.

Do you fancy a drink after work or something?

Depends on what time I finish.

OK, right. Erm...shall we play it by ear, yeah?

Yeah. OK.

So, how's things with you and Alice?

Yeah, I get the feeling she's avoiding me.

Oh, OK, erm...

OK, you know, how were...

Is everything working, bro?

Did you actually just ask me that? No, no...

YES, everything's working fine.

Maybe she's playing hard to get, you know?

Bit late for that.

Yeah, well, you know, women, they like an air of mystery.

Now that you've sampled the goods, you know...

and passed the gravy, you know... What? You think she's getting second thoughts?

Alice? You and...

No, mate, she is crazy about you.

FATS SIGHS

Hey. You've left him on his own in the house?

Well, he's hardly going to rob the place, is he?

I wouldn't put it past him.

Do you want to come round for some lunch?

Er...

..might be a bit crowded?

David's laid up in bed.

I really should check on Kamil. Do you know what, it was a just a...

But, you know what, an hour wouldn't hurt.

OK. Yeah? I'll see you later then.

Hey. You all right? Yeah. Busy.

OK. You?

Yeah, good. All good.

Good. Good.

That's great. Cheers, Marie. Day off?

Well, I wouldn't go as far as that. Never stops, does it?

I've just come to get my wages. I'll catch you later.

I spoke to Dot earlier. Oh, yeah?

Yeah. She said that you had words.

Well, she's only got herself to blame. She seemed very upset.

Well, so was Denny, when Dot shouted at him.

I'm not saying that she's in the right... Good, cos you weren't there so...

Look, Dot's not getting any younger.

Maybe Dennis is just a bit too much for her.

So now it's my fault, is it?

You know that she's resigning as Church Warden?

No, she never mentioned it.

Well, bearing in mind you're not speaking to her.

I was supposed to be helping with the fund-raising.

Well, you know, she could do with a bit of support right now.

Well, she knows where I am if she wants to apologise. See you later.

See you.

Yeah? Have that. DOOR OPENING

Yeah! Then we can play hide and seek, innit?

Yeah!

Having fun? Huh?

Yeah, Masood is round at Carol's. Lunch. Spraying his turf.

You two losers are so loved up.

There's too much testosterone in this house!

Yeah, we should be happy you're still single then. Happily single.

Then why are you going on dating sites?

That doesn't necessarily mean I want a relationship.

It's too much like hard work. Yeah, I'm surprised you can remember.

Hey, I'm just taking time out.

Giving you two dweebs a chance at the dating game.

If you want my advice, the voice of experience...

That's not going to happen. Is that my lunch?

Yeah, I thought he might be hungry.

Where does that leave me then? McKlunkys?

Bye. Say "bye". Bye.

I hope you're hungry. I'm starving.

'There you go. Oh, thanks.'

Ah, this is nice!

It's only a sandwich.

Yeah, well, it's the thought that counts.

Listen to that.

(Silence.)

No-one to bother us!

Yeah, you're forgetting the invalid upstairs.

Just forget he's there. Yeah, I'm trying, believe me.

I don't want him coming between us.

He won't.

CROCKERY SMASHING What's that?

What are you playing at?

I was trying to move the tray. All right, well just leave it... Ah!

What did I say? I'll go and get the first aid kit.

OK, little fella, time to hit the swings...

..one time round the park...

..maybe an ice cream, for old time's sake...

hide and seek? Now you want to play.

Kamil?

I'm coming to get you... Boo!

Kamil?

Kamil?

Kamil?

Oh. Breathe.

Breathe. This...isn't happening.

You should have called me. I didn't want to bother you.

You're such hard work, do you know that?

Ow! Oh, don't be such a baby.

It stings! All right, well, keep still.

He cut himself.

Stupid. It's all right. We were just having lunch.

I do seem to keep ruining your intimate moments, don't I?

You'll live. Right old mess.

Well, at least you've got Carol to run round after you.

Don't worry, as soon as I'm mended, I'll be out of your hair.

Let's hope you get well soon.

I'll be down in a minute.

Masood.

Mm.

Don't get too comfortable.

KAMIL?

Yo. What's going on, bruv?

Kamil. Have you seen him?

No. Not since this morning.

I left him for like five minutes, the door was open...

You are not telling me...? I've lost him. Oh, my... Kamil? Kamil?

Leave that, I'll do it. Sorry about lunch.

He really picks his moments, doesn't he?

Yeah, well, at least he's on the mend.

He's playing you, Carol.

What, you think I'm too stupid to see that?

Maybe you're just used to him taking advantage.

Are you saying you don't trust me? It's HIM I don't trust.

Did you pop round this morning to help out or were you checking up?

Can you tell me there's nothing between you? It's finished.

All right? Whatever we had is history.

I'm not about to share you.

In a few more days he'll be gone.

Why would Kamil run away? I don't know! I thought he liked me.

What did you say to him? We were talking about him flying home,

we were going to go to the park, I went upstairs...

You know what, it's time to phone Masood, bruv. Yeah.

No. Kamil's gone missing! How can I tell Masood?

He can't have gone far. WHERE is he then?

I don't know. Maybe somebody else has found him?

Hey, Whit! Whit, sweetheart, You haven't found Kamil, have you?

Found...? Have you lost him? Yes. No! Sort of. Calm down.

I'm CALM, OK?

When was the last time you saw him? At home. In the house.

Wait, you have checked the house, innit?

Seriously?

There we go. Lovely. I'll see you in a couple of weeks, yeah? Bye.

So I'm seeing Tam later in the Vic, for a drink.

I'm sure he knows something's up. Why? You been avoiding him?

I really don't want to hurt him.

Alice, this morning Fats was telling me how happy Tam was.

Oh, really?

It wouldn't surprise me if Tam's told half the Square already.

It's never going to work. You haven't given it a chance, yet.

We've haven't got anything in common. Er, yes, you have.

You both like Westerns...

you both like processed cheese...

and also chatting away for hours about absolutely nothing.

Oh, I don't know what to do.

Just don't be hasty, OK? You don't want to regret anything.

Well, it would really make me happy if you were there later, in the Vic. Me?

Yeah, I could just do with some moral support. Please.

Do you just want to go over.

If it's an apology you're after...

you've wasted your journey.

Maybe I overreacted.

Anything? No, he's not out the back. No sign of him upstairs.

I'm calling the police. OK, wait, wait, wait, all right?

Let's just chill out and think this through carefully.

I can't even look after a three-year-old child!

Look, think, is there anywhere that he might be?

Don't you think I would have looked?

OK. Panic over.

Ohh!

Why did you hide from me?

I don't want to go home. You don't want to go home. Why not?

I want to stay with Chacha.

You want to stay with Chacha?

Chacha's going to miss you too.

I'm sorry, Sharon, I shouldn't have shouted.

Shouldn't have lost me temper.

"Refrain from anger, turn away from wrath!" That's Psalm 37, verse eight.

Well, you can get a bit protective when it comes to your kids.

I know it's hard for you, bringing up a child on your own.

I mean, look at me, my Nick.

Denny can get a bit boisterous, I suppose.

Well, that's one way of putting it.

Look, why don't we put this behind us, yeah?

Oh, I'd really like to.

You know, it's not good to dwell on things...

Well, you know me, Sharon, I ain't one to bear a grudge.

Dot, Carol told me you were resigning.

I thought you liked being Church Warden?

Tell you the truth...it's nearly been the death of me.

Why didn't you call me, if you needed some help?

Look, just sleep on it, eh, Dot?

That's the trouble, I ain't been sleeping.

You make a better job of running things than anyone I know.

Look, we can work through this list together, can't we?

That's very kind of you, Sharon...

but I've already come to my decision.

I mean, the people of Walford, they ain't well disposed to charity.

Too busy with their own concerns, I suppose.

What about a garage sale? I ain't got a garage.

No, jumble, bric-a-brac - we could get the whole Square involved.

Make a day of it. The Church reaching out to the community.

Well, we'll have to start delegating and maybe Denny can help?

Give you both a chance to be friends again. Oh, I say.

You might even bag a bargain, eh?

Well, I shall have to inform the vicar first, of course. PHONE RINGING

Dorothy Branning.

Talk of the devil!

Vicar, I was hoping you would call.

Yes, yes, I did leave an urgent message.

Well, I wanted to discuss the new fundraising idea.

I thought I could share it at tomorrow night's meeting.

Ah, Tam the man! Wagwan, fam?

Alice asked here for a drink. Apparently, she wants to talk.

OK...all right.

She hasn't even mentioned last night yet.

All right, boys? Darling. Hey, babe.

Shall I get us a drink, yeah? Yeah.

You all right? Hey.

Can I have a coke and a beer please.

Yes. Ta.

What are you going to do?

I think I'm just going to tell him it's not working out.

You're going to break his little heart.

I know, but at least I'm being honest.

Are you? Really?

Look, Tamwar isn't Michael, OK?

And you're never going to be with Michael. You don't know that.

And if you keep putting Michael on this ridiculous pedestal,

Tamwar doesn't stand a chance.

Really?

No-one is ever going to stand a chance, OK?

And you are never going to be happy.

Trust me, Alice, I think you could do a lot worse.

What about the...you know.

Well, maybe you just need to work on it?

You know what they say, practice makes perfect.

You don't think...

..the scars, they were bound to put her off.

What? Alice? No, no, no!

You push that idea way out your head.

Why is there suddenly a problem? Maybe... There you go, darling.

Sorry. Girl talk.

Tam, Kat and Michael are actually out tonight.

So, I don't know, maybe we could skip these and go back to mine?

Yeah, I can do that. Yeah.

See you later. Bye.

Babe, what just happened?

She just changed her mind. You know, woman's prerogative.

Granddad! Granddad! Hey!

We made you a Get Well card. I want to show him!

Careful! Careful, careful, I'm fragile!

All right? How was school? Same as usual.

Is that supposed to be me?

All beaten up.

Are those men going to come back?

No, darling, no.

Not with Nana Carol to beat them up, eh? Eh?

Right, kids, tea's on the table.

Thank you.

Can we come and see you later? Course you can - if you behave yourself.

Ta-ta.

She's got you well trained.

Oh, you know Carol.

Yeah. Better than anyone.

Bothers you, doesn't it? Me being around.

Your reputation precedes you.

I let her down, yes.

We both know she deserves better. Yeah, that's where I come in.

Well, I'm pleased she's found someone so reliable.

If you think I'm going to let you hurt her again... I mean it.

It's nice to see you're making a go of things.

As soon as you can walk, you're out that door.

That's up to her.

Why don't you just do the decent thing, for once in your life?

I'll try not to ruin the party.

Good. There's just one little problem...

..she does have a habit of falling in love with me.
