Cut Off - Part 2 Doctors

What's happened to our generator?

Not working. We've got no computers, phones.

-You're in my room.

-We were inspecting it.

They think it's cable theft from a substation.

-How did you do this?

-Friction, from my pockets.

I'm terrified that he might not be the one.

Especially after seeing you, after all these feelings coming back.

Everything I've got, I've had to take! And I'm not stopping now.

GAS HISSES

It's a wet dream for Health and Safety, innit?

-Can we talk about this?

-We did. It didn't get us anywhere.

And what's this going to achieve?

We'll all go together.

What about your children?

If you love them, you will let me take them to Brazil.

-It doesn't mean that you cannot see them.

-How am I going to do that?

When you get out...

Ah, see? You never said that before I came back with these.

But what if it's not just them I love?

I told you, it's over.

-Because of a drug dealer?

-Because you hit him.

-Because I got caught, you mean?

-No. Because you did it.

Because of this, and this, and this.

-But it was good?

-Yeah.

-We had everything.

-For a little while.

So maybe...

What if it's not just them I love?

I met somebody else.

This might not be the time.

-In Brazil?

-It doesn't matter.

Like an old boyfriend?

So what am I supposed to do?

Hang around and watch another bloke...

-with my wife, my kids?!

-They will always be your kids.

They're not going anywhere.

-So who's going to look after them? Your mother?!

-Shut up.

-He doesn't like me to talk about his mother.

-I said, shut up.

-She treats you worse than her dog.

-Maria, I swear...

Que menino da mama!

Mami's boy!

So do it if you're going to do it.

Patterson, no! Stop.

-He's not going to do it!

-Paterson...

-Your mami couldn't care less about you.

-I said, shut your mouth!

No! You shut up!

No, both of you shut up!

Do you think there could be some truth in what Maria says?

Do you think your mother could be the cause of your rage?

I'd love to, but I can't just leave.

Yeah.

-Are you following me?

-No.

Cos one word from me, right, and he'll rip your knackers off.

-Tell you what, I'll come back later.

-DOG SNARLS

I'm on my way.

OK, let's try this again.

What happened?

You don't tell us, we can't help.

So you keep saying.

How long were you in contact with the power source?

No comment.

Well, were you thrown?

I wasn't expecting it, if that's what you mean.

I mean, did you hit your head?

I don't remember.

-Don't remember or you're not telling me?

-What's the difference?

If you don't remember, you could be concussed.

If I'm not telling you, that copper will knock me out.

-That's not going to happen.

-Too right.

You're not going to let me treat you, we'll just sit here

until the ambulance comes.

OK.

I know you're busy but we've got no other way of getting in there.

OK, thank you. I'll see you in a bit.

-Busy dealing with sick people?

-He might be sick...

The ambulance won't take him if he doesn't want to go, anyway.

He'll go.

-We don't know that he had anything to do with it.

-Until you let me see him.

Oh, em... Oh, I didn't, I didn't know...

I thought you had gone. Em...

This is my husband, he's popped in to check on the generator.

Would you mind having another look at the generator, darling?

-Is there anybody in the nurses' room?

-Nurse Clegg.

-But she's with a patient, she shouldn't be too long.

-That's fine.

-Will you put that out?

-He's here then.

-Who?

My son.

No-one's got a mother like mine.

Well...

maybe we can work through those feelings.

Does it come from your mother beating you?

SHE GASPS

News flash! It comes from your mother beating you.

PHONE RINGS

If I don't answer that,

they're going to find out why.

Then answer it.

Hello?

She's who you should be burning, not me.

It's your mother. She's here.

-Won't this just make things worse?

-Of course.

-She's coming in and that's that.

-DOOR KNOCKS

What are you doing?

HE LOCKS DOOR

-I suppose a fag's out of the question.

-Be quiet.

-You're never going to do it.

That's where you're wrong, cos this way I know

you won't end up with the kids.

So it had nothing to do with me being afraid of the dark at all?

Well, I think that's the symptom.

But I also think you've got a problem with commitment.

What's funny?

You thinking I was a virgin.

Well, I thought that was what you were trying to tell me.

No...

Let's just say I've got a vivid sexual history.

I love men.

In lots of ways, I think I'm like one.

SHE SIGHS

What happens? Do you just stop finding other people attractive?

Stop noticing his smell...

his strength...

the thought of what's underneath?

The animal...

taking you back to his lair,

no pleasantries,

no niceties,

just...

no more Mr Nice Guy.

All we need now are a few cave paintings on the walls.

Do you think you can help me?

Doctor?

Yes. I think I can.

What are you going to do for work?

-How are you going to look after your family?

-I'm not going.

What?

She's going without me, taking the kids.

You're just going to let her?

-How will he stop me in prison?

-You're going to sit back

and watch your kids get taken away?

-Let's not start with the worst case scenario.

-What am I supposed to do?

You're supposed to fight!

Get stuck in and not let go.

He's not a dog.

If he was, you'd have him put down.

You're the reason he turned out this way.

He was fighting before I ever took the belt to him.

-Where was your father through all this?

-Jail.

I'd like Paterson to answer.

Jail.

Just like I'm going to be.

LIGHTER FLICKS

There are other ways of breaking the cycle.

Just because that's how you grew up...

-His siblings are all right.

-You're joking.

They're worse than he is.

-Shut up!

-No, you shut up!

-No, you shut up.

HE SCREAMS

-What was that?

-Er, it was the therapist I mentioned.

Sort of anger management. Can get a bit noisy.

So can I.

Brilliant. Erm, we'll use Dr Carmichael's room. It's quieter.

That's good, let the rage escape.

No. It's not working any more.

You said things were getting better.

That's before all this.

It's a harder situation, but the same rules apply.

-I can't do this any more.

-"Easy, big man!"

What?

Isn't that what Remy said?

-ROS SCOFFS

-Big man!

Him?

What are you doing?

Remy, yeah, it's me.

I'm at The Mill with Dr Cassidy and Maria, can you get here?

Paterson...

Yeah, that's brilliant, mate. Quick as you can.

-I didn't mean for him to come here.

-Why not?

I need someone on my side.

-Peter Rainham.

-Anna Finlay.

-From the PCT.

-Right.

-Inspection.

-Carte blanche.

Just wandering around consulting rooms?

Did you need it?

Yes.

Well, if it's urgent...

It is, rather.

Well, I suppose we could go and see if the nurses' room was free.

Good idea.

We'll get out of your way.

-It's very dark in here.

-Yeah.

-Are you going to sit down?

-Um, no, no.

Dr Granger...

-Can I ask you a question?

-Anything you like.

Do you sleep all right on your own?

-I don't like it very much.

-Why?

I panic.

OK, so, er, you're...

..you're afraid of the dark when you sleep with Harry,

and also when you're alone.

Sometimes I sleep under the bed.

-Sleep under the bed?

-Yeah.

So what happens now?

What happens now is that...

is that you face your fears and your weaknesses.

-Wh...what?

-I'm going to leave you alone.

-Um, Dr Granger, please.

-Don't worry, it's, er...

you're just afraid of the dark, that's all.

The rest is, is...

is last minute nerves. It's this or nothing.

OK.

Freya, hi.

HE FLICKS LIGHTER

Yes, send him through.

Lock it.

-DOOR LOCKS

-What's this?

I needed someone to talk to.

Someone who's not involved.

This is my mum.

Maria's taking the kids away.

-And what's this going to achieve?

-Stopping her, I hope.

-Making me feel better.

-It won't.

Not in the long run.

How does it make it any better for your children?

-How does it make it better for them than it was for you?

-Excuse me, but I am not...

Please. Don't say anything.

-That's right.

-Either of you.

Paterson...

Big man?

No, you're right.

Well done, Paterson. Well done.

-Are Mum and Dad still in with Elaine?

-Yep.

And some bloke called Remy Fry...

Really?

So what we going to do, big man?

-How are we going to sort this out?

-How can we sort it out?

-She's going to Brazil.

-That might be a good thing.

How?!

-A fresh start.

-But I'm not going, am I?

Is that what she said?

-DOOR KNOCKS

-Who's there?

I don't know.

Well, get rid of them.

-Hi.

-Cherry.

-Is everything OK?

-Er, fine, yes. Impromptu therapy session.

Oh. Freya says that, erm, she says that Remy Fry is in there with you.

That's right.

OK. Can you just tell him that, if he wants,

I can do his injections over lunch.

The sooner the better, cos we can't keep them cold.

Fine, yeah. Thanks very much, I'll pass that on.

-OK.

-OK.

What injections?

What injections is she talking about?

You going somewhere?

Got a job.

-Doing what?

-On a rig.

-Where?

Answer me.

-Brazil?

-Paterson...

I should kill you.

You could.

-We could fight right here.

-I know who my money would be on.

-But what's the point?

-The point?!

-We've spoke about this.

The things you can't control,

you just let go.

You said it yourself, it's over. You're just together for the kids.

-Yeah, but not for you to take her away.

-She wants to go!

I want to go with her.

-So that's where you've been?

-You knew I was with someone.

But him?!

-You!

-No-one planned this, big man.

-You're not even sorry.

It's like we've always said, situations change.

And if you can't adapt, that's when the anger kicks in.

The helplessness.

So you fall back on what you know.

Violence.

If that's the way you want to go...

But this still doesn't mean I don't love you.

Fifteen months!

You're like my brother.

Closer.

-So how could you do this to me?

-I couldn't have.

Except...

-We want you to come.

-When you get out of jail.

-I'll get you a job.

He's run off with your wife and kids, but don't worry, there's still a nice earner in it for you.

-How long are you going to go to prison for?

-I don't know.

-Six months.

-A year, max. Less than we did.

-But you won't be there this time.

-I'll be in Brazil.

-Waiting for you.

-When you get out, you can go.

-To watch her with another man?

I don't think Maria's the problem.

I think the relationship Paterson has with you

is at the heart of his problems.

So what's it going to be, big man? Letherbridge with your mother?

Or Brazil with your kids?

Go, both of you. Take the children and leave.

Don't mention this to anyone.

You two. You stay here, with me.

I can wait all day, no skin off my nose.

-DOOR KNOCKS

-Come in.

How are we getting on?

You asked for these.

WHISPERS: Call me if you need anything.

Right, then. Your notes...

-I think maybe I'll call your mum.

-Could do.

Or your dad...

I think I'll call your dad.

No.

Talk to Rob. You know, tell him the truth, you'll be OK. OK?

You're not going to go anywhere?

Good lad.

Richard, Jenny. Vamos.

-I can do injections now, if you want.

-Not right now, thanks.

Jason's got something to say to you.

Is that wise?

If he was going to do it, he'd have done it by now.

Never should have had him.

I never should have had you.

You were the reason your dad left.

Should have got a dog, instead.

Would have if it was up to me.

-What, he wanted me and you didn't?

-Well, he said he did.

He said a lot of things.

You blame Paterson for your husband leaving you?

You hate me cos Dad left?

-Well, what am I supposed to say?

-I was three years old.

And you're still feeling sorry for yourself.

Do you really think it's helpful to be this angry? This harsh?

It's the truth.

What about you, Paterson?

How does it make you feel when your mother speaks like this?

-And he's supposed to be a hard man!

-DOG BARKS

Duke's doing something harder in the bushes!

Would you like to give me the lighter?

Paterson?

I'll take your mother out, then come back and talk to you.

Mrs Harris?

All right, I'll just get rid of this.

Go on.

Do us all a favour.

Oh, they said he wouldn't leave.

Maybe he hasn't. He would've had to walk right by us.

No, he would just go right out the back here.

SHE SIGHS

DOG SNARLS

Oh, have you seen anyone come in or out?

Erm, can I just clear something up?

You can't smoke anywhere inside this building.

Is that right?

Hello?

Jason?

-What have we got?

-Betadine, Co-codamol...

-and more morphine.

-SHE LAUGHS

I'll just have a look.

Someone's coming.

-Peter Rainham.

-Anna Finlay.

-From the, er, PCT.

We should be going.

Er, just a second.

LOUD SCREAM

SHE SOBS

That's it. OK.

This is, er...

..er, this is not how it looks.

Told you it weren't that bad.

You said you would stay and talk to Robert.

-Just something in the fuse box.

-Good with fuse boxes, are you?

-Yeah.

-So how come you burned your hands on one?

You took that cable, didn't you?

-Rob!

-Karen, have you seen...

Duke's gone!

So has Paterson.

-Yep, computers and phones up and running.

-Good.

-Julia?

I believe this is a patient of yours.

-Oh, I'm sorry.

-Don't worry, I'm fine.

OK. PHONE RINGS

Excuse me, sorry. Hi.

Yeah, grey suit, white shirt.

White fitted boxers you bought me.

They just ran off when they heard the woman scream.

She didn't need to be in a wheelchair at all?

-They must've been here all day.

-Just wandering around?

They seemed really flustered.

-DOOR KNOCKS

-Come in.

-Mrs Tembe, you're back.

-Oh, yes. It has been busy at the campus all day.

How's it been here?

-It's been fine.

-Yeah, yeah, we got through.

Oh, good.

I just wanted to let you know that the people from the PCT

have just arrived.

A Mr Peter Rainham and Ms Anna Finlay.

Held up, due to the power cuts.

Is that a problem?

-No.

-Because, as Infections, Control and Health and Safety Coordinator...

Yeah, you know, I think this is probably a job for the Practice Manager, though.

Very well.

What are you going to do?

For starters, I'm going to ask to see their ID.

I'm going to sue you for loss of my dog.

-Where's Duke?

-What happened to your hand?

-Where is he, what have you done with him?

-He's gone.

-Gone?

It was for the best.

You...

Just go.

What are you looking at?!

Excuse me, is that your truck outside?

-Yeah.

-Did anyone try and sell you some copper wire this morning?

-Yeah.

-And can you see that person here?

My dad will kill me.

Yeah, that's him.

Sorry, son.

Thank you. Come on.

-If you ever need anyone to do your wiring...

-Goodbye, Jason.

You better come through.

-Where have you been?

-I went for a coffee, what happened?

So, er, let me show you around The Mill.

You asked me what got me angry.

Cruelty, injustice,

taking your frustrations out on something weaker than you.

I took him to the RSPCA.

Told them he'd been used in fights.

They said they would give him to someone who would look after him.

That's what you meant by his being gone?

And he still bit you?

He never liked me.

You weren't going to burn the place down, were you?

No.

As far as I'm concerned, this is a family therapy session.

-You need to keep getting help.

-I know.

-Wherever you are.

Thanks.

Sorry about your beanbag.

Hi, everyone. You remember Mandy?

-She is going to be the latest addition to our nursing staff.

-Hiya.

We must stop meeting like this. People will talk.

I think we're above all that, don't you?

You put personal information about me on a public blog.

That is completely out of order.

-Have you got a girl in here?

-No, I'm busy.

Jack, what's going on?
