0:00:06 > 0:00:08# I can make my world come true
0:00:08 > 0:00:11# All my dreams will see me through
0:00:11 > 0:00:13# Doesn't matter what may come my way
0:00:13 > 0:00:17# But even now, I will win some day. #
0:00:20 > 0:00:24Are you sure this is supposed to be fun?
0:00:24 > 0:00:30- This is what families do.- Why can't we order a pizza like normal people?
0:00:30 > 0:00:32Because normal people are boring.
0:00:35 > 0:00:40- You did that on purpose! - If only I could be so accurate!
0:00:40 > 0:00:43Let's scrape it off.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45- DOORBELL RINGS - Ooh! Visitors!
0:00:45 > 0:00:47Cam!
0:00:47 > 0:00:52- Hi, Cam!- Hello.- Don't worry, I'm not checking up on you or...
0:01:12 > 0:01:15It's tomato sauce, Elaine.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18Oh... Of course.
0:01:18 > 0:01:19I knew that.
0:01:21 > 0:01:26- Was that in the letter your mum sent?- It's her engagement ring.
0:01:26 > 0:01:31- She doesn't want it any more. It reminds her of my Dad.- Um, it's...
0:01:31 > 0:01:33a nice big stone.
0:01:33 > 0:01:39- Diamond?- Glass. Cheap, nasty and tasteless. My dad all over.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44Let me get this straight.
0:01:44 > 0:01:51You want me to spend the day with social workers and weirdo care kids?
0:01:51 > 0:01:56It's a party organised by Kidz In Kare at the Saracen Hotel.
0:01:56 > 0:02:01It's very posh, they do delightful cakes. And all you have to do is...
0:02:01 > 0:02:05What? You mean there's a catch?!
0:02:05 > 0:02:10All you have to do is mention how pleased you are
0:02:10 > 0:02:14that I got you both in a successful fostering situation.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27# So, so, so scandalous. #
0:02:40 > 0:02:43# Scandalous So, so, so scandalous. #
0:02:43 > 0:02:47Sorry, Elaine, but today is Saturday.
0:02:47 > 0:02:53- I don't need to listen to people like you on a Saturday.- But I...
0:02:53 > 0:03:00I thought you might like these. This reception is being sponsored by a firm who makes training shoes.
0:03:00 > 0:03:06- Bribery?- It's not bribery, it's a free gift! You don't have to come.
0:03:06 > 0:03:11It's just that...I always thought of you as special.
0:03:21 > 0:03:25- It's working, then.- What? - Elaine's bribe, sorry, "gift".
0:03:25 > 0:03:30I'd rather eat a dog bogie sandwich than go to Elaine's...
0:03:30 > 0:03:34- SHE SNIFFS - Is something burning?
0:03:34 > 0:03:37The pizza!
0:03:37 > 0:03:44- What will we do for lunch?- What do you mean "we"?- Where are you going?
0:03:44 > 0:03:49I'm having my lunch at a posh hotel. They do delightful cakes.
0:03:50 > 0:03:55Far be it for me to state the obvious, but...
0:03:55 > 0:03:58won't that make your finger swell?
0:03:59 > 0:04:04- What are you up to?- Chantal's got this ring stuck on her finger.
0:04:04 > 0:04:09- That's Crash's mum's ring! - No, it's mine!- Liar, it's mine!
0:04:09 > 0:04:14Oi! If my sister says it's hers, it's hers.
0:04:14 > 0:04:20- Even though I haven't seen it before. - Woah! People, people, people...
0:04:20 > 0:04:25I'm sure we can sort this out in a calm and rational manner.
0:04:28 > 0:04:34Welcome to the Laurence Plakova Show! Protector of the peace!
0:04:34 > 0:04:36Soother of sorrows!
0:04:36 > 0:04:40Now, please welcome your host,
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Laurence Plakova!
0:04:53 > 0:04:57He accuses her of trespassing and theft. She says that's crazy talk.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59Who's right? You decide!
0:04:59 > 0:05:03- Go Lawrence! Go Lawrence! Go, go, go, Lawrence!- This is stupid.
0:05:03 > 0:05:09- Chantal, so, you say this ring is yours?- Yeah. Finder's keepers.
0:05:09 > 0:05:14- Not when you find things in other people's rooms!- Details, details.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17- Boo!- Boo!- Boo!
0:05:22 > 0:05:27Guys, guys, you must try to understand one another.
0:05:27 > 0:05:31This meaningless aggression is not healthy.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48Isn't shop a little too stylish for you, Beaker?
0:05:50 > 0:05:55Well, well, well, Justine Littlewood.
0:06:06 > 0:06:12Is that make-up or are you on your way to a clowns' convention?
0:06:12 > 0:06:17I hear the Dumping Ground got rid of you. I wish I was at the party.
0:06:17 > 0:06:24You were! Haven't you heard about the Justine Littlewood dartboard? It comes out on special occasions.
0:06:24 > 0:06:31- It's been great catching up, but some of us have more important things to do.- Yes, some of us do.
0:06:34 > 0:06:40Crash's door was open, I may've seen the ring out of the corner of my eye.
0:06:40 > 0:06:46I might have wandered in and... accidentally tried it on?
0:06:46 > 0:06:49- Boo!- Boo!
0:06:49 > 0:06:51I don't have many nice things.
0:06:58 > 0:07:03- Duke?!- Tracy! Elaine's suckered you into this one, has she?
0:07:03 > 0:07:07- No-one suckers the Beaker into anything.- Whatever you say.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Nice trainers.
0:07:10 > 0:07:14- Duke?! Beaker?!- Justine! This is like a school reunion.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16I may cry!
0:07:16 > 0:07:21But Elaine personally invited me to this reception...
0:07:21 > 0:07:26..where Kidz In Kare magazine are doing a big photo shoot on
0:07:26 > 0:07:31- "Your favourite social worker"? - But I don't have...- BOTH: Elaine!
0:07:31 > 0:07:37In a magazine? What happened to all those laws about taste and decency?
0:07:53 > 0:07:57There's at least six of Elaine's other kids there.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00- But Elaine said I was...- Special?
0:08:00 > 0:08:07- And you believed her? You must be even dumber than...- Than you? That's a frightening thought!
0:08:19 > 0:08:21Mmm, delightful.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23'Elaine with an I.'
0:08:23 > 0:08:29The surname's spelt... Oh, of course you know that, how silly of me.
0:08:29 > 0:08:35- I'm honoured to be here.- Elaine. You said I was the only one here.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38Justine, Tracy, lovely to see you.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41My other success stories are over there.
0:08:41 > 0:08:46- But Elaine, you said that...- Tracy, dear, can't you see we're talking?
0:08:46 > 0:08:51He's writing an article about me! So leave us!
0:08:51 > 0:08:56There's a good girl? Of course, it's all about the children.
0:08:56 > 0:09:02I mean, their welfare is central to every single decision I make.
0:09:02 > 0:09:06- It wasn't me!- I'm sorry, I thought I saw you talking to Elaine Boyack.
0:09:06 > 0:09:12- Is she your social worker?- Well... - I write for Kidz In Kare magazine.
0:09:12 > 0:09:17I wondered if you could talk to me about your relationship with her.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20You can't mess with other people's property!
0:09:20 > 0:09:25- You can have your ring back when I can get it off, OK?- I don't want it!
0:09:25 > 0:09:32I mean... I do. It just... It just brings back bad memories.
0:09:32 > 0:09:37- You can throw it in the bin for all I care!- Crash?
0:09:37 > 0:09:40Does this mean I can keep it?
0:09:44 > 0:09:49And then there were those stupid activity days she made us do.
0:09:49 > 0:09:54One of my strengths has always been organising activity days.
0:09:55 > 0:10:03Do you remember when she drove us 20 miles so we could sit in a field and think about nothingness?
0:10:03 > 0:10:08Teaching meditation, encouraging the children to be one with nature.
0:10:18 > 0:10:22We had to go to the toilet in a hedge, with nettles!
0:10:22 > 0:10:25First aid and alternative therapies.
0:10:25 > 0:10:32No, no, the worst one was spongy hammers so the kids could work out their aggression on one another.
0:10:32 > 0:10:36And then she wondered why they went after her.
0:10:36 > 0:10:41Conflict resolution! We're a team. All good teams work well together!
0:10:41 > 0:10:46Let's show everyone what a great team we are!
0:10:46 > 0:10:52I have letters from children who've appreciated how I've helped them...
0:10:52 > 0:10:58They'd have given you a doggie-bag, if you'd asked.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01You could say I'm the cream of the crop!
0:11:01 > 0:11:07- You can quote me on that if you like. - Quote you?- Yes, in your article.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09I don't know anything about any article.
0:11:09 > 0:11:14I just heard there were some delightful free cakes in here.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19I hoped to enjoy them in peace and quiet.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24LAUGHTER
0:11:27 > 0:11:30I have nothing else worth stealing.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32We got it off.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34Soap.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38- It hurt, actually.- Good.
0:11:38 > 0:11:42Listen, I didn't mean to upset you.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45We've all got bad memories, haven't we?
0:11:53 > 0:11:57But, uh, of course, on the whole,
0:11:57 > 0:12:05Elaine's a highly effective and professional...social worker.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07Wouldn't you say so, ladies?
0:12:07 > 0:12:13- Anyway, best be off home. Bye, girls.- See you, Duke.- Bye!
0:12:13 > 0:12:17He's got great stories, hasn't he?
0:12:17 > 0:12:22- And so much experience as well.- He's much more interesting than Elaine.
0:12:22 > 0:12:28- I wonder if anyone's ever written an article about him?- I wonder!
0:12:28 > 0:12:31- Bye, girls!- Bye!- Bye.
0:12:31 > 0:12:36I see leaving the Dumping Ground hasn't made you any less evil.
0:12:36 > 0:12:41- I'm not evil, Justine. I'm misunderstood.- Mind you...
0:12:41 > 0:12:47the thing about the DG is...there was always something happening.
0:12:47 > 0:12:52I love living with Dad and Carrie and the baby, but sometimes...
0:12:52 > 0:12:56it can just get the teensiest bit...
0:12:56 > 0:12:58- Boring?- Mm.
0:13:01 > 0:13:07- That was the journalist from the magazine, wasn't it?- I don't know.
0:13:07 > 0:13:15- I know you've been saying mean things about me. She'll be back. The story is right here!- Sure is!
0:13:22 > 0:13:25Delightful!
0:13:25 > 0:13:27# I can make my world come true
0:13:27 > 0:13:29# All my dreams will see me through
0:13:29 > 0:13:31# And the flack won't get me down
0:13:31 > 0:13:34# My dreams will turn things all around
0:13:34 > 0:13:37# With a smile upon my face
0:13:37 > 0:13:38# I can see a better place
0:13:38 > 0:13:41# Doesn't matter what may come my way
0:13:41 > 0:13:44# But even now, I will win some day. #
