Eggs Tracy Beaker Returns

Why can't we come and live with you?

Harry, I'm not your mum.

Come on, Harry. Sapph's got to

do her paintings for college.

No, it's OK, the paintings can wait.

You should go. Jeff wants to go.

No!

Listen, little man, I'll

always come and visit you,

but you've got to get used to me

not living at

the Dumping Ground anymore.

So take Jeff home, OK?

We'll see each other soon.

Don't worry, I'll look after him.

Come on.

I don't think you should

bring him here any more.

No.

Cos he needs to get used

to life without me.

And you, him.

What are you saying?

Don't let anything hold you back.

Come on, guys.

Bye, Sapph.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye.

You can ask till you're

all blue in the face.

It's not going to happen.

Mike, please, we really need one.

Well, you're just going to have

to try and manage, aren't you?

Yeah, I messaged my mate asking him

if he wanted to hook up online.

He got the message, "Wanna poo?"

It's not funny.

Yes, it is.

It's been like that since

the Burneywood lot got here.

Yeah, Burneywood lot.

There is too much lack of respect

for the things in this house.

I am sick and tired of you

being careless with your stuff.

Games remote - went

through the window, hmm?

Yeah! Oh!

Pool cue - used as a ninja stick.

Not funny.

Brand-new second-hand bike - nicked.

That's my bike! Oi!

Yeah. Do you know what?

It wouldn't be so bad if you would

own up to your mistakes. No!

Until you all show me that you

can take care of your stuff,

no new computer.

Tracy, have you got a mum?

You know I

have. You've met Cam loads of times.

But she's not your real mum.

No, but she's the mum

that's been there for me.

So why did she go to America?

She had to. For work.

And because she wanted to,

but she's back tonight.

For ever?

I'm not sure yet, Harry.

You know, people still love you

even though they're not with you.

Look, Harry, you don't

need to worry cos...

I can be your mum.

When's Rick coming home?

Soon.

Why'd he get chucked

out of his foster home?

It's none of your business.

If Rick wants you to know,

then he'll tell you, yeah?

Now, get hold of that.

That's right, there you go.

Turn around and...

make sure you clean under the bed!

Hey!

Hello.

Have you got a minute?

Uh-huh.

Look, Harry has been fine

every time Sapphire comes.

He's home. Over there it's different

and it's got worse every

time we've taken him.

I think he feels abandoned.

It's like I'm his Cam but

if I was to go to New York,

see where she lived and see

how different her life was,

I think I'd feel really strange,

like I don't belong there and

she doesn't belong with me.

Is that how you feel now

about Cam coming back?

No.

Well, it's natural if you do.

I mean, you've been on your own long

time. The flat feels like your own.

You're not a child now.

I'm not here about me.

I'm talking about Harry.

Look, are you saying we shouldn't

let him go to Sapphire's anymore?

And I don't think she

should come here so often.

He needs to get used to

life without her.

When you lived here,

you know, before Cam,

your mum never visited, did she?

And you used to pine

for her even more.

Yeah, but Sapph's not Harry's

mum. He just sees her that way.

He doesn't even remember

what his real mum looks like.

Sapph's only 16. She's just

starting life on her own.

I think we should

think about her, too.

But taking away the chance to see

the person that means most to him?

We do it all the time. That's

why most of the kids are here.

It's our job to find Harry

a proper mum, not Sapph's.

I'm just trying to do

what's best for both of them.

Hey, we understand that, yeah.

I found a new mum.

Maybe that's what

Harry needs - a new mum.

Oh, look at the state of you,

Harry! You're a disgrace!

What are you?

A disgrace.

Your hair, it's so disgusting.

It could do with a good wash.

Jeff disagrees. Don't you think

Harry would look handsome

with clean, shiny hair, Jeff?

That's because his hair

needs a good wash, too.

So come on, let's get it done.

Everything all right, Harry?

I'm a disgrace.

Here she is.

Our favourite care worker.

Ugh! Cut it out.

What are you after?

Er, no, no, no, no, no! Get back.

Well, don't forget.

Mike?

No.

Hear me out.

If nothing else, they need

a decent computer for homework

when they go back to school.

I know

that, Tracy, but what can I do, hmm?

They wrecked the one they've got.

They're not to be trusted.

I know.

But what if there's a rule,

like no drinks near the computer?

I'm sorry but if they can't

look after what we give them,

how can I justify throwing away

good money on a new computer?

Why not get them doing something

to prove they can be responsible?

Like what?

Like a challenge.

Oh, here we go!

Another Tracy Beaker plan.

Egg-sitting.

What?

Right, here are the rules.

You are in teams of two, which

means each pair has to look after

a raw egg between now and bedtime

without damaging it whatsoever.

Each of you must be

responsible for the egg

and one of you must have it

on your person at all time.

Huh?

Carrying it.

Anyone breaks the egg, no computer.

If anyone doesn't have

their egg, no computer.

Come on, guys.

This is a great chance to show

Mike responsible you can be.

Easy!

Great start, Tyler(!)

You idiot!

We've already lost.

It's OK. We'll start again from now.

Everyone get an egg.

Carmen?

Yep.

Did this egg have a mother once?

Yeah, why?

If it hatched, will

we have to be its mum and dad?

Yeah, I suppose, if it had

no-one else to look after it.

So who's going to be Mummy?

How can I be Mummy when I'm a boy?

OK, I'll be Mummy.

No, you're just going to

break it. I'll be Daddy.

Wait, where are you going?

I think we should give it a name.

Why?

Because it's our baby for the day.

How about...

Eggward.

Eggward?

Yeah, Eggward.

No offence, but I would

rather sit on this egg

and cluck like a chicken

all day, than look after it.

Yeah, me, too!

Oi!

We all want this computer so take

it seriously or there's no point.

Poached or fried, Electra?

Actually,

I was thinking more of an omelette.

Yummy, yummy, yummy.

There you are, Harry. Don't you

look handsome?

Give me the egg.

Careful, it's really delicate.

Don't treat him like a baby, Carms.

You be quiet. Carmen's my mum.

Leave the boxes here. Come in the

office, we'll do the paperwork.

Hey, Slick, guess you couldn't

keep away from me, then.

I tried but they didn't let me.

Good, because you're with me in

Liam's old room.

Where's Liam?

With his brother.

Didn't know Liam had a brother.

Neither did he.

Cool.

Where's your egg?

With its daddy.

Well, go and put this in

Rick's room and play mummy.

What's with the eggs?

Responsibility.

You can partner up with

Carmen and Harry.

I'm worried she's starting

to smother him.

OK.

Gus?

Get out! You're supposed to knock

before going into someone's room.

OK, OK.

Who is it?

Gina.

No it isn't.

Gus, let me in!

Kiss and make up, Daddy!

I'm not working with you.

Tracy says we have to.

I'm Mummy, you're Daddy.

That's the rules.

I'd rather do this on my own.

I find it too hard

being with you all day.

Rules are rules, Gus.

Promise you won't break it?

Promise.

Tyler, get back here!

Tyler, give me it back.

Stop it, Tyler! Stop it, Tyler!

NOOOOOOO!

Ha-ha, your face!

Sorry, mate, I had to do it.

Give me back my egg.

It's not yours. We're a couple.

That's the rules.

Couples can split up.

What is going on?

I want a separation.

And custody of the egg.

On what grounds?

On the grounds that you said

that we had to be responsible

and he's the most irresponsible

person in this house.

Sorry, Gus, no can do.

You both have to be

responsible for that egg

so you'll have to find

a way to work together.

Hello. Er, Tracy said that

you've got to egg-sit with us.

Yeah, what's she on about?

It's kind of like trying to prove

that we can look after stuff

so then Mike'll give

us a new computer.

How's it going, Harry?

Remember me, don't you?

Don't be rude, Harry. Say hello.

He's helping us today.

Jeff doesn't need his help.

Well, I bet Jeff can't do

what I can do with an egg.

Put your arm in.

So, how many kids are

you going to have?

None. Kids only tie you down.

I want to travel.

I want a massive family.

Why?

To be the kind

of mum mine wasn't.

There we are. Perfect!

Comfy, Eggward?

He is just an egg.

He isn't just an egg, Frank.

Today, Eggward is our child.

He may be small, bald and not really

very chatty but, just like us,

he's got substitute

parents for a while.

And it's our job to make sure

he gets everything he needs.

Here we go.

That's good, isn't it, Harry?

It's Carmen.

You've got to take

eggs-tra special care of it.

Don't want to crack her head open.

Eugh!

Ha-ha! Loser!

As well as being suspended, why

are you back here?

Had a fight.

With who?

One of my foster brothers.

Did you win?

See any bruises?

I bet he deserved it.

Oh, he deserved it.

What was it about?

Um, Rick, if there's anything

that you wanted to tell me, like,

you can trust me not

to say anything.

I mean, I won't tell anyone.

Yes, she will.

Carmen can't keep secrets.

Harry, that's not

a very nice thing to say.

You're naughty, do you hear me?

No.

Right, let's see those eggs, then.

Harry, put the egg in the cup.

Very good. Who did that?

Rick. It's supposed to be me.

Ooh! Do I hear wedding bells?

Um, shut up.

Oh. Eggward's been sleeping.

Has he now?

Mm-hm.

Eggward!

Well, I'm waiting.

First of all, can I just say

that me and Johnny here have had

an absolutely smashing time

with Eggy-weggy, haven't we?

Oh, yes.

It's been simply cracking.

Nice one, Johnny. I knew you two

were going to ruin it for all of us.

Yeah, thanks...

Calm down, calm down!

Here he is, all safe and sound.

Toot-toot!

Sit there.

Listen, I don't want you saying any

more bad things to Rick about me.

Do you understand?

Harry, what do you say?

What do you say?

Sorry.

Right, now sit there and you

don't move until I get back.

Yeah?

It's me.

Come in.

I thought I'd come and give you

a hand.

No need. Where's Harry?

Um, waiting for you.

I can do this myself.

Oh, it's no problem.

I said, I can do this myself.

Sorry.

Rick?

What?

What Harry said about me used to

be true, but it's not anymore.

So, if there's anything that

you want to talk to me about,

you can trust me not to blab.

Harry, are you OK?

Where's Carmen?

Helping Rick unpack.

You know, even eggs get heavy after

a while. Do you want me to hold it?

Jeff wants to know

if I've got a real mum.

Yes, Jeff.

Everyone's got a real mum.

Why can't we go and live with her?

When... When you have very little,

your mum couldn't look

after you properly.

sometimes you got hurt.

That's where you live here,

so we can keep you safe.

Can't we even see her?

Maybe when you're older.

Now, I think Jeff needs a drink,

and maybe some of them sweets I

keep hidden for special occasions.

What do you think?

Come on.

They used to con

people out of money.

What, your mum and dad?

That's how they met.

Yeah, but did you know what they

did, before they got arrested?

Sure, I did.

They used me a few times.

Everyone trusts a couple

with a little kid.

I liked it.

New bikes, games consoles.

You name it, I got it.

Wicked!

Not really. Now they're in

prison and I'm stuck in care.

What happened in your foster home?

Their son happened. He heard his

parents talking about me, started

winding me up, telling all the other

foster kids to hide their stuff,

saying lying was in my blood.

I warned him.

But he carried on mouthing

off, so I lost it.

And then they kicked me out. I don't

know why I'm telling you all this.

It's good to talk about stuff.

What are you after, Carmen?

I'm not after anything. I like you.

You don't know me.

Yeah, but that's what friends do.

They get to know each other.

Maybe I don't want to be friends.

Look, you should forget

all about this.

Anyway, you're supposed to be

with Harry.

I don't get it.

I thought you liked me.

I mean, you

drew my picture. It was just a face.

And Harry said it was you, not me.

I win!

Again?

Harry, I told you to stay put.

I brought him in here. Are you OK?

Fine.

I've got to see Mike and Gina

about something Harry said,

so can you keep an eye

on him until I get back?

I'm not stupid.

OK.

I never said you were.

Oh, Harry, don't you ever listen?

You've got chocolate all over you.

Oh, what is wrong with you?

Jeff says you're no fun any more.

Tell Jeff he isn't, either.

Jeff wants Sapphire.

He can't have Sapphire

because she's not here.

Jeff says you're not my mum any

more.

Tell Jeff, thank goodness!

Ohhh!

And now he's asking

about his real mum.

And what did you tell him?

That she couldn't look after him

properly and sometimes he got hurt

but I didn't go into details.

Good.

It's growing pains, Tracy, yeah?

With Sapphire gone, it was

bound to happen sooner or later.

He's wondering who he is

and where he belongs.

Right. Keeping him away from

Sapphire isn't the answer.

We deal with this now.

How?

Well, by talking to him,

as honestly as we can.

Go and see if you can

find him, will you?

She's right.

Get off! I'm practising.

Play a duet?

No, we can't. Move!

Why are you being so annoying?

Because we're meant to be a team.

We'll never be a team!

Stop it, Tyler.

I'm practising.

You're not

playing any of the right notes.

It's just noise!

I'm playing all the right notes,

just not in the right order.

Leave my piano alone.

Why can you never have a laugh, Gus?

It's what makes you feel better.

Cos I don't understand funny.

Tell me you didn't just do that.

Guys, have you seen Harry?

No.

No.

Oh, there you are. Where's Harry?

I don't know.

But I left him with you.

I told you to look after

him. What happened?

Well, he, he can't have gone far.

I'll find him.

Harry?

Harry, are you in here?

Carmen?

What?

I'm sorry if I upset you.

Rick, get over yourself.

It's Harry. I can't find him.

See, Frank, however hard you try to

get money or make a nice home,

you always have to spend

time with your kids.

And take them to

football on Saturdays.

Park on Sundays,

walk the dog, ice cream.

Hey, maybe we can take him fishing.

He might not like fishing.

Well, if he doesn't like fishing,

I'm going to put him in care.

You wouldn't!

Joke!

Well, it's not funny.

OK.

Eggward!

He's dead.

You killed our baby.

It's not. It's just an egg.

Have either of you seen Harry?

No.

Where is he?

How could you let this happen?

Sapph.

No, seriously,

how did this happen?

He'll be fine. You went

walkabout a few times.

That boy is not street-smart.

Anything could happen.

Look, I'm going to go

and look for him.

No, stay at home in case he shows

up. I'll call you with any news, OK?

I've called the police, OK.

Big Issue, madam? No?

Big Issue? Big Issue?

Do you

know where Sapphire lives?

Sapphire? I'm sorry, kid.

I don't know anyone called Sapphire.

Big Issue? Listen, kid,

has nobody ever told you?

You shouldn't talk to strangers.

No? See you.

Big Issue?

Are you lost?

Oh, it's all right, sweetheart.

Where do you live?

Shouldn't talk to strangers.

Well, quite right.

But, seeing as you're lost, it might

be a good idea if you talk to me.

My name's Claire. And this

little fella is called Harry.

That's my name!

Really?

Well, there's a coincidence.

Harry, meet Harry.

Who's this?

This is Jeff. Does Harry have a Jeff?

He has lots of Jeffs,

but none called Jeff.

Where's your mammy?

Don't know. She hurt me.

Sapphire was my mum.

But then she left me.

Then Carmen was my mum but she likes

Rick more than me, so I've run away.

Oh, well, you... you just

stay there, sweetheart.

I'm going to call the police.

I haven't done anything!

I just want to find Sapphire.

No, no, it's not you.

You deserve to be looked after

properly and the police'll help us.

Big Issue, madam?

Yeah? No? Have a nice day.

Excuse me. Sorry, have

you seen a little boy?

He's got blonde hair

and blue eyes and...

Ah, you must be Sapphire.

Yes. Where...have you seen him?

He went in there.

Thank you so much.

Big Issue?

Come over here.

Won't be long now, Harry.

Could you be my mum?

Oh, I can't, sweetheart.

I've got my own little

Harry to look after.

Sapphire!

Harry? Harry!

Harry, no! Wait!

Harry, where have you been?

You, wait there!

Sapphire, is it?

You're not taking him anywhere.

I've called the police. I don't

know what kind of life you lead

but you can't just abandon a child

whenever you feel like it.

What?

Are you OK?

Yeah.

And we were with the police

and everything.

Well, how do you think I felt,

trying to explain I wasn't some

scum who just abandoned her child.

Look, Sapph, we understand

that, yeah.

I mean it, Mike.

I'm going to go home and get my

stuff and I'm moving back in here.

It's obvious no-one here can

look after him properly.

Even if we thought it was a good

idea...

Which we don't.

..you can't.

Why not?

You're 16. You're out of

the system. There is no coming back.

What's all the misery for?

Harry's all right.

Yeah, but we don't have a computer.

Why?

Why do you think?

We all broke our eggs.

Have you told Tracy?

No.

Then there's no problem, is there?

What are you going on about?

Duh!

Oh, you lot are even

dumber than Tracy!

Where do you get eggs from?

Hens.

The shops, thickoes!

We broke ours before lunch so

we went out and bought some.

Well, isn't that cheating?

It's against the rules.

Did Tracy mention

shops in the rules?

No.

So, do you want a new computer

or what?

Ah-ah-ah!

Cash first.

What cash?

A pound each.

Blackmail!

No, that's business, so cough up.

Eggs-cellent!

So, Harry, why did you run away?

Did you miss Sapph?

But I've been gone ages now and

you haven't run away before.

Did someone do something?

I just don't want Carmen

to be my mum anymore.

Babes, Carmen isn't your mum.

So who is?

What's wrong?

Don't talk to me. I'm not worth it.

You're not worth it?

Talk to me.

I've been a bad mum.

When you said you'd be Harry's mum,

you were being kind and caring.

I should've stopped it there.

This was my mistake.

Carmen, you're just a kid.

You can't be anyone's mum.

You don't understand.

No, I do.

All you can be to Harry is

a friend, or like a sister.

I should have told you both that.

That's not it.

I'm just like her.

Who?

My mum.

Rick came back and

Harry got in the way.

I treated him just

like she treated me.

Who we are, how we act,

some of it comes from how

we've been brought up.

Don't blame yourself, Carmen.

So when Sapph told you

she wasn't your mum,

she wasn't rejecting you.

It's just, she can't be your mum.

Neither can Carmen.

Harry, families come in all

different shapes and sizes.

And we all try to be a mum.

Yeah, I mean Mike's

steady and secure.

Gina's warm and strict.

And Tracy's always by your side.

Carmen has a big heart.

But she just got confused for a bit.

And Sapph, well, she loves you.

Do you see what

we're getting at, Harry?

Because if you add

everyone here together,

it's like having

one big gigantic mum.

Some people would say that

makes you a very lucky boy.

Right. Eggs.

Thank you.

So, Tracy, when do we get

our new computer, then?

Well, it all seems perfect.

But, before I handed out the eggs,

I made some small pencil marks

on them so I'd know if

they'd been replaced.

And I take it from the expression

on their faces that

these are not the same eggs.

Mm-hm.

I can't believe you

all broke your eggs.

It's harder than it looks.

Hush!

No excuses. You have yet to prove to

us that you can behave responsibly.

And what's even worse is that

you lied about it. Again.

Therefore, there will

be no new computer.

This is so unfair, Tracy. Come on.

You never said anything about...

Sorry, guys.

There's nothing I can do.

What about our money?

Well, erm, yeah, tough. No refunds.

Well, in that case...

Tracy! Oh, I missed you so much.

I missed you, too.

What would I do without you?

You're my real mum.
