0:00:02 > 0:00:07# I can make my world come true All my dreams will see me through
0:00:07 > 0:00:11- # It doesn't matter What may come my way...- No! No!
0:00:11 > 0:00:16# Believe it now I will win some day. #
0:00:22 > 0:00:27- Tracy, a word, please. - As long as it's not "sorry".
0:00:27 > 0:00:32- I know I'm back late. Chew? - Tracy, it's not about being late.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34Justine waited ages for her dad.
0:00:34 > 0:00:41So I rang him and he said he left a message to cancel with a young girl.
0:00:43 > 0:00:50- Sorry. I forgot. I'm really sorry, Jenny.- Tell Justine. She's in there giving her dad a hard time.
0:00:54 > 0:00:59You DIDN'T leave a message! I would have got it otherwise!
0:01:00 > 0:01:04Who did you leave it with? AHEM!
0:01:06 > 0:01:08Dad, I'll call you back.
0:01:10 > 0:01:17- You took the message, didn't you? - I really, really, totally forgot.
0:01:23 > 0:01:27Aaaahhhh!
0:01:29 > 0:01:31I'm sorry!
0:01:36 > 0:01:40- It's OK. Forget it.- So...we're OK?
0:01:40 > 0:01:48- No, Tracy. We were never OK.- I know. But this message thing is finished?
0:01:48 > 0:01:54PHONE RINGS Hello? ..Dad! Sorry about that.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57Yeah, it was just a mistake.
0:02:01 > 0:02:06- Ee-ya! Who's the man? - Exhibition tickets!
0:02:06 > 0:02:11- They're sold out!- I swopped them with a friend for my rollerblades.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15- They were MY rollerblades! - Don't worry.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18They're for tomorrow. Starts at 4.30.
0:02:18 > 0:02:22I gave up on the idea when I thought they'd sold out.
0:02:22 > 0:02:27- I'm doing a karate skills course instead.- When?- Tomorrow. All day.
0:02:27 > 0:02:33- Cancel it.- What - after nagging Jenny for two weeks to let me go?
0:02:33 > 0:02:38But where there's a Zac, there's always a way.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Shh!
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Quiet!
0:02:44 > 0:02:48What is there? Carrots and mixed veg.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51Yeah, they're good. Brilliant.
0:02:53 > 0:02:56Can opener!
0:03:03 > 0:03:04Let's go!
0:03:05 > 0:03:12- Where's Zac?- He felt a bit dodgy but he said he'd be down in a minute.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16I don't believe it! Tracy! Look!
0:03:23 > 0:03:26What's the matter with you? Seen a ghost?
0:03:26 > 0:03:31My mum's coming to visit me! She's coming today at three o'clock!
0:03:31 > 0:03:34Jenny! Mike! Guess what?
0:03:34 > 0:03:38My mum's coming! She's coming today!
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Gangway! Zac's just been sick.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43Let's have a chat in my office.
0:03:45 > 0:03:48OK, Zac. Relax. Calm down.
0:03:48 > 0:03:52- What is it with the diced carrots? - Must have been something he ate.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55Thanks(!)
0:03:55 > 0:03:58I just want to see the postcard.
0:03:58 > 0:04:03You'd better do a good tea. She'll be used to something really fancy.
0:04:03 > 0:04:08Tracy, are you SURE it's from your mum?
0:04:11 > 0:04:16I'm sure. You're only being mean because she'll take me away,
0:04:16 > 0:04:19and you couldn't bear to see me leave.
0:04:19 > 0:04:24But you can cry all you like. She'll take me away.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27And she'll look after me.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39Sorry, Zac, but it looks as if we'll have to cancel your karate.
0:04:39 > 0:04:42Karate! I must go! Jenny'll be angry!
0:04:42 > 0:04:47Let me worry about Jenny. Get some rest. OK?
0:04:51 > 0:04:54Suckers! Yes!
0:04:55 > 0:04:59The exhibition starts at 4.30.
0:04:59 > 0:05:03- Just stage a miraculous recovery by three.- It's in the bag!
0:05:03 > 0:05:05What's with you, Beaker?
0:05:05 > 0:05:08These are classy chocolates!
0:05:08 > 0:05:14My mum brought me crateloads to make up for missing sports day AGAIN.
0:05:14 > 0:05:20When MY mum arrives, she'll bring enough chocolate to fill my room.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23Your mum's coming? Today?
0:05:32 > 0:05:35Um...Tracy...
0:05:36 > 0:05:40This card is 100% hocus-bogus.
0:05:40 > 0:05:45- The writing's good but the postmark's been drawn in in pencil.- It's OK.
0:05:45 > 0:05:50I know. I just wanted it to be true for a little bit longer.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58Someone's set me up!
0:05:58 > 0:06:02No-one messes with my mate Beaker! Come on!
0:06:30 > 0:06:35Either we're getting slower or they're getting quicker.
0:06:35 > 0:06:39We should have sussed this out! Action stations.
0:06:41 > 0:06:44Sit down, Justine! You're making me jumpy!
0:06:44 > 0:06:48She's excited about Tracy's mum. She's a movie star.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51Wonder if she's been to the Oscars?
0:06:51 > 0:06:56Course not! She's not a movie star! It's all a lie, like this visit!
0:06:56 > 0:07:01I bet my necklace against anything you've got that she's not coming.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Where's Tracy? Who cares?
0:07:04 > 0:07:07Justine, close the door, please.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12I need to speak to all of you.
0:07:12 > 0:07:20I want to check that this postcard isn't one of you playing a cruel joke.
0:07:20 > 0:07:24- That's sick! Who would do that? - I don't know.
0:07:24 > 0:07:30If anybody knows anything, my door's always open for a private chat.
0:07:41 > 0:07:46Where are they? It's one o'clock! We've got to go by three!
0:07:46 > 0:07:48I'm starving!
0:07:48 > 0:07:50KNOCK ON DOOR
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Hi, guys.
0:07:56 > 0:07:59Oh, Zac! You look dreadful!
0:07:59 > 0:08:02- Do I?- I'm going now!
0:08:02 > 0:08:07You'd better stay here. You might have caught the bug.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10- We thought you might be hungry. - What's for lunch?
0:08:10 > 0:08:16Roast beef, Yorkshire puddings, carrots, peas, gravy, and potatoes.
0:08:16 > 0:08:21- Creamed, of course. - Mm! Of course!
0:08:21 > 0:08:27But we thought YOU could have some fresh water and some crackers.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30Creamed, of course!
0:08:32 > 0:08:36KNOCK ON DOOR Come in if you're ugly!
0:08:36 > 0:08:39What's going on, Justine?
0:08:39 > 0:08:44You love that necklace. You'd only put it on the line if you were sure.
0:08:44 > 0:08:49- Meaning?- I think you put that card for Tracy in the post.
0:08:49 > 0:08:53- I've had enough of this. - Going to call Jenny? Go on, then!
0:08:53 > 0:08:57Or I'll go. Her door is always open, remember?
0:08:57 > 0:09:03OK. Don't tell Jenny. You don't want everyone to call you a snitch-witch!
0:09:03 > 0:09:09No. But you got me into something worse. Sort this out, or I will!
0:09:35 > 0:09:41Er, Tracy...we all believe your mum's coming but if she doesn't...
0:09:41 > 0:09:47She'll be here. She'll probably bring treats for everyone.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50She IS coming. And she's fantastically generous.
0:10:15 > 0:10:21- It's three o'clock! Where did you put those tickets?- I don't know!
0:10:21 > 0:10:24PHONE RINGS
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Hello?
0:10:30 > 0:10:32Who is it?
0:10:32 > 0:10:36Tracy, it's your mum!
0:10:38 > 0:10:42I'm Tracy's friend, Peter. ..Really?
0:10:45 > 0:10:47Hello? ..Hello, MUM.
0:10:48 > 0:10:53Hello, darling! All your little friends behaving themselves?
0:10:53 > 0:10:56They're excited about meeting you.
0:10:56 > 0:11:00Oh, but how disappointing! I'm stuck in Paris!
0:11:00 > 0:11:03Stuck in Paris? Oh, no!
0:11:03 > 0:11:08Then I'm afraid I have to fly to Hollywood immediately!
0:11:08 > 0:11:13- Are you making a new film?- It's called Beaker Gets Her Own Back,
0:11:13 > 0:11:16with Justine Littlewood as the villain.
0:11:16 > 0:11:20Must dash. The surprise is on the way. See you soon!
0:11:20 > 0:11:23Bye, Mum. Love you!
0:11:29 > 0:11:33- You feeling better, Zac? - No. Terrible!
0:11:33 > 0:11:36- Perhaps you could face this. - Definitely.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39Gentlemen.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41Let's talk vomit!
0:12:09 > 0:12:16"To Tracy. A little something for you and your friends. Love, Mum."
0:12:16 > 0:12:20What are you waiting for? The French chocolates are on me.
0:12:21 > 0:12:24Oh, hi. How are you feeling, Zac?
0:12:24 > 0:12:28Much, much better, thanks. Sorry about the karate.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31That's OK. I'm sorry you couldn't go.
0:12:31 > 0:12:36Seeing as you recovered so well, perhaps you can find a use for these.
0:12:37 > 0:12:43I'll give you a lift in the minibus. We might have time for a burger.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47JENNY: What's going on? MIKE: Tell you later.
0:12:47 > 0:12:52- You won't believe it. - You will not believe it.
0:12:55 > 0:13:01- These are for you. - What did you do - poison 'em?
0:13:01 > 0:13:06- Why give them to me?- Cos I forgot to tell you about your dad.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09Anyway, they're not from me. They're from my mum.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19We're quits.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28Mm!
