0:00:58 > 0:01:01Lois, come on.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03It's time to wake up.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05I need to finish my dream.
0:01:05 > 0:01:07It's the same one...
0:01:07 > 0:01:10Don't tell me. Nothing more boring than hearing other people's dreams.
0:01:14 > 0:01:15What do you dream about?
0:01:15 > 0:01:18You, getting up and getting dressed.
0:01:18 > 0:01:19We've got a busy day ahead of us.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Do me a favour, jump out and pop that in the post?
0:01:24 > 0:01:25No.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27Go on! It's on your side.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30No.
0:01:31 > 0:01:32Yes!
0:01:32 > 0:01:34What is that?
0:01:34 > 0:01:36The Hundred Greatest Movies Quiz.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38I've hardly seen any of them.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40Well, I've probably seen loads, but...
0:01:40 > 0:01:41No.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44No.
0:01:44 > 0:01:45Oh, that one looks good.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47Let me have a look.
0:01:47 > 0:01:49Yeah, we've seen that one.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51We've seen that one.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54Well, actually, you fell asleep, but I've seen it.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56Give it back!
0:01:56 > 0:02:00Dirty Harry. You've got to see that again.
0:02:00 > 0:02:03I bet I could get at least 90%.
0:02:03 > 0:02:04Good for you!
0:02:04 > 0:02:06Go on, you read them out and I'll tell you
0:02:06 > 0:02:08whether they made the top 100 or not.
0:02:08 > 0:02:11You know what? I'm going to walk.
0:02:11 > 0:02:12Don't be like that.
0:02:15 > 0:02:17Bye. Bye!
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Oh, Karen, the post!
0:02:19 > 0:02:21HE BANGS ON THE WINDOW Karen!
0:02:24 > 0:02:28I got Maths, English, French and science for starters.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31I can get more later when we've been into the school,
0:02:31 > 0:02:33seen where we need to focus, OK?
0:02:33 > 0:02:36I thought we could do a bit this morning, before we go in.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39Just to get those synapses started. What do you think?
0:02:39 > 0:02:40Lois?
0:02:40 > 0:02:42What? Which do you want to start with?
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Can I go outside? Lois, I am not doing this for me!
0:02:45 > 0:02:47I'm trying to help you catch up.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49Didn't I give you a plate?
0:02:49 > 0:02:50Oh, sorry.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52PHONE RINGS
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Choose one of the text books and make a start.

0:03:16 > 0:03:18Oh! Are you all right?
0:03:18 > 0:03:19What happened?
0:03:19 > 0:03:21Nothing. I just landed funny.
0:03:21 > 0:03:23Not from up there. I was running.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25Is it bad? Have you broken something?
0:03:25 > 0:03:27It'll be fine. I've got to keep going.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29Lois?! What the...?
0:03:30 > 0:03:32You DID jump from up there!
0:03:32 > 0:03:34I've got to go. Give me a hand, please?
0:03:36 > 0:03:39Is something the matter?
0:03:39 > 0:03:41No, it'll be fine. I've got to go!
0:03:41 > 0:03:42What's your name?
0:03:42 > 0:03:44I've got to go.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Lois! What were you thinking?
0:03:46 > 0:03:49Thank you for your help. I can take it from here.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52I'm Karen from the Mill Health Centre,
0:03:52 > 0:03:55if you want a doctor to look at her? Are you hurt? No, I'm fine.
0:03:55 > 0:03:57How do you think it would look if you got hurt?
0:03:57 > 0:03:59You weren't thinking, were you!
0:03:59 > 0:04:00Do you want to come with me?
0:04:00 > 0:04:02She's said she's fine.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04Come on, let's get you indoors.
0:04:12 > 0:04:13Ah, just the man!
0:04:13 > 0:04:16You're on a paperwork day, aren't you?
0:04:16 > 0:04:18Yes, but I've got a lot of other stuff planned.
0:04:18 > 0:04:19It'll have to wait.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22This is all the info for an audit for the usage of the walk-in centre.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Well, not all the info, but close enough.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27I have a vast array of superpowers,
0:04:27 > 0:04:29but I do not count auditing as one of them.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31Yes, but Emma does.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33That's why I need you to get all this over to her
0:04:33 > 0:04:36and get her set up with a laptop so she can access our system remotely.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39Now, that is one of your superpowers, if I'm not mistaken?
0:04:39 > 0:04:41So I don't have any paperwork to do today?
0:04:41 > 0:04:43It won't take you long, if you get cracking.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Captain IT to the rescue!
0:04:45 > 0:04:46Wait!
0:04:46 > 0:04:48What?
0:04:49 > 0:04:50Oh.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58Ah, you must be Dr MacPherson.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Call me Toni.
0:05:01 > 0:05:04And you must be Howard, the practice manager?
0:05:04 > 0:05:06Howard Bellamy, yes. How did you know that?
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Zara's been filling me in on everyone.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10She said you were ex-military.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12Oh. Is it that obvious?
0:05:12 > 0:05:14Just a certain neatness.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Are you a dancer at all?
0:05:18 > 0:05:19No!
0:05:20 > 0:05:23Why, what has Zara been saying? Oh, it was just a wild guess.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Have you ever even tried?
0:05:27 > 0:05:28No, no.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32There's something in your demeanour.
0:05:32 > 0:05:33It's elegant.
0:05:37 > 0:05:38No.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40Um...I, I...
0:05:40 > 0:05:43I'm sorry, I need to make a phone call.
0:05:43 > 0:05:46Ah, Daniel! Would you be able to show Dr MacPherson the ropes?
0:05:46 > 0:05:47Thank you.
0:05:47 > 0:05:51Oh, dear. What have you been doing to Howard?
0:05:51 > 0:05:53I'm not sure.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56We'll get there early, but that won't do us any harm.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58Better to be early...
0:05:58 > 0:06:00Does it hurt, your foot?
0:06:00 > 0:06:02No, just these new trainers.
0:06:02 > 0:06:06I thought you liked them. Don't you like them? Lois?
0:06:06 > 0:06:07Can we go in there a sec?
0:06:07 > 0:06:09We've got an appointment.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12We're early, you said. We can get some more books.
0:06:12 > 0:06:13History. You've not got any history.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15We don't know what's on the curriculum.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17It won't take five minutes.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19We'll go on the way back from school.
0:06:19 > 0:06:23One thing at a time, that's the only way we'll get through this. Focus.
0:06:27 > 0:06:28Good morning.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30What did I tell you?
0:06:30 > 0:06:33What? I don't know.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36You said you'd behave. Didn't we have that discussion?
0:06:36 > 0:06:37I'm looking for a book I used to have.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39It got lost and nowhere online has it.
0:06:39 > 0:06:43But somewhere like this might. It won't take long to look, please?
0:06:43 > 0:06:45Go on, then. Be quick.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53Have you got any history books, appropriate for Year 9?
0:06:53 > 0:06:57History section's cleared already, but I can look out the back for you.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59I didn't think you were really closing down.
0:06:59 > 0:07:02I thought it was something to make people come in.
0:07:02 > 0:07:03If it was, it hasn't worked!
0:07:06 > 0:07:08I saved you some of these.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12I was hoping you'd be coming back in.
0:07:12 > 0:07:13Thank you, Hywel.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16You get through them so fast. Not at the moment.
0:07:17 > 0:07:18Got my hands full.
0:07:19 > 0:07:20I didn't know you had a...
0:07:20 > 0:07:23I assumed...
0:07:24 > 0:07:26You should sell your stock online.
0:07:26 > 0:07:29Lois was just saying, that's where she's been looking for her book.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31Nah, reckon I'd go mad.
0:07:31 > 0:07:35Stuck at home, alone, sticking things in envelopes.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37He's got it! He's got the book.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Ah, yes, that's a very rare one.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41Does it cost a lot? No, just a quid.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44It's only rare because no-one wants it. I want it.
0:07:44 > 0:07:47You can get all these kinds of stories on websites now.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49But it's not the same. You can keep hold of a book.
0:07:49 > 0:07:50Exactly.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53This is what I mean. Someone comes in the shop, out of the blue,
0:07:53 > 0:07:55finds just what they were looking for.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57You can keep reading it over and over again
0:07:57 > 0:08:00because there's no end to the mystery. Have you read it?
0:08:00 > 0:08:02About the shoemaker who vanished?
0:08:02 > 0:08:05It happened nearby, on the old road. From Leamington Spa to Coventry.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08There was another guy, a magician in the States,
0:08:08 > 0:08:10faded away, then came back again.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12That's different.
0:08:12 > 0:08:14I haven't got a quid.
0:08:14 > 0:08:16Is that how you ask for something?
0:08:16 > 0:08:17Can I have it?
0:08:17 > 0:08:19Please?
0:08:19 > 0:08:23I tell you what, you can have it as a reward,
0:08:23 > 0:08:25if you promise to behave at the school.
0:08:25 > 0:08:26I already said I will.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28And you already disobeyed me.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30Now prove that you can be trusted,
0:08:30 > 0:08:33and we'll get it for you on the way back. But...
0:08:33 > 0:08:34We're going to be late. Come on.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38You forgot your...
0:08:38 > 0:08:39DOOR CLOSES
0:08:44 > 0:08:46You're not on your own, are you?
0:08:46 > 0:08:49Chance would be a fine thing, I've got Auntie Barbara staying with me.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51How do you survive with so few sockets?
0:08:51 > 0:08:53I don't even think you've got surge protection.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56I want all the gossip from the Mill. What's going on?
0:08:56 > 0:08:58You broke your ankle. That's it.
0:08:58 > 0:09:02Well, what about the locum who's standing in for me? What's she like?
0:09:02 > 0:09:04I wasn't really paying attention.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07What about Niamh?
0:09:07 > 0:09:08What about her?
0:09:08 > 0:09:10How's she settling in?
0:09:10 > 0:09:13She's a nice girl, don't you think?
0:09:13 > 0:09:15Excellent! You're all hooked up to the Mill.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17You may now call me Genius.
0:09:17 > 0:09:21Genius, you don't have to rush off, do you? Cup of tea, bit of cake?
0:09:21 > 0:09:25Well, it's probably best to make sure the connection's secure.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27Good, then you can pop to the shop and get the tea and cake.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30There's a few other things you can get for me too, while you're there.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36ALARM BLARES I've never been so embarrassed!
0:09:36 > 0:09:37It wasn't my fault.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39It was him. He was going on and on.
0:09:39 > 0:09:43He was telling us about the school. We need that information.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46I needed to get out of there. I couldn't breathe, and my foot was killing.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49Not so much that you couldn't kick a fire exit open!
0:09:49 > 0:09:53There was me thinking you really wanted that book.
0:09:53 > 0:09:54Ow!
0:09:54 > 0:09:56Really?
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Because you said it was fine before.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01It was. But now it really hurts.
0:10:07 > 0:10:09Toni seems nice.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Mmm. He's got a nice suit on.
0:10:12 > 0:10:14Like Zara's, but not as glamorous.
0:10:14 > 0:10:15What?
0:10:15 > 0:10:18Where is Zara? Is she at the nursery?
0:10:19 > 0:10:24Worse. She's picking up a present for some kid's birthday party.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26Last-minute invite.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28Sounds nice.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30It'll be hell.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33Soft play and screaming tots. Our glamorous days are over.
0:10:37 > 0:10:40Is it not killing any more? Why?
0:10:40 > 0:10:42Listen, Lois, this can't continue!
0:10:42 > 0:10:44I'm a straightforward person.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47When I ask a question, I expect an answer,
0:10:47 > 0:10:50not another question or an "I don't know".
0:10:50 > 0:10:52It still hurts, but not as bad.
0:10:52 > 0:10:54Hey, Lois, I thought it was you. How are you doing?
0:10:54 > 0:10:57She says her foot hurts. Right. Come on in.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00It's drop-in today. I'll get somebody to see you.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03I hope we're not wasting your time.
0:11:03 > 0:11:04Not at all.
0:11:10 > 0:11:12Just want to fill that form in?
0:11:12 > 0:11:13Thank you.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18I'm doing this online quiz - hundred greatest movies?
0:11:18 > 0:11:21I only got seven right. Do you want to do it with me?
0:11:21 > 0:11:22I won't have seen any.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25If your foot's hurting, you should stay off it. Come and sit down.
0:11:29 > 0:11:34Nice glasses, Karen. It's a good look on you. Jimmi...
0:11:34 > 0:11:38They're filling in a form, and they won't be two ticks.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40Can I ask you about another patient?
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Yeah.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45(She's come in because she's hurt her foot.
0:11:45 > 0:11:48(But can you take a look at her arm? It's covered in bruises.)
0:11:48 > 0:11:53How am I supposed to look at her arm if she's come in about her foot?
0:11:53 > 0:11:57I don't know. Make something up. Ask for a general check.
0:11:57 > 0:11:59I think there's something wrong
0:11:59 > 0:12:02and I think her mum is keeping her prisoner.
0:12:07 > 0:12:09She jumped off a wall, mucking about.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12Said it didn't hurt at first,
0:12:12 > 0:12:14otherwise I'd have taken her straight to A E.
0:12:15 > 0:12:20Hmm. Yeah, it's pretty swollen. It might be a fracture.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22I can't confirm anything without a bone scan,
0:12:22 > 0:12:25so you might have to go to A E after all. It's not that bad.
0:12:25 > 0:12:30OK, then for now, rest it, keep it elevated, ideally with an ice pack.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32Minimise weight-bearing activities,
0:12:32 > 0:12:34and no high-impact sports till it's better.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37Does that include running? Yes, that includes running.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40If it doesn't improve or it gets any worse, you will need to go to A E.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43Could you pop your jacket off, so I can check your blood pressure?
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Why would you need to do that?
0:12:49 > 0:12:50I can explain.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56Would you like to speak to me on your own, Lois?
0:12:56 > 0:12:59Lois? You know, there's no need...
0:12:59 > 0:13:02Could you wait outside, Ms Hardacre? I'll come and get you.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09DOOR CLOSES
0:13:09 > 0:13:11So you were telling me about Niamh?
0:13:11 > 0:13:13Was I? You said she was fine,
0:13:13 > 0:13:16but haven't you noticed she's been a bit down lately?
0:13:16 > 0:13:18It's nothing to do with me. Al...
0:13:18 > 0:13:20I think we should mind our own business.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23Even if we have people's best interests at heart?
0:13:23 > 0:13:26No-one has my best interests at heart. How can you be so sure?
0:13:26 > 0:13:27I have conclusive proof of it.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29Remember all that stuff with Dr Khella?
0:13:29 > 0:13:33You can't let that cloud the way you relate to people for ever. I'm not.
0:13:33 > 0:13:34I'm over it. Look.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37I popped into the hardware store on the way back from the shops,
0:13:37 > 0:13:40picked you up some surge protectors and extra socket extensions.
0:13:40 > 0:13:44Optimise your outputs, minimise your risks. Won't take me a minute.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54I'm so sorry. Lois has explained.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56Apologies for the misunderstanding.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58What misunderstanding? I know what I saw.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01I knew it was you. You've no idea what you saw.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04Would you like to go through to my room? Please?
0:14:04 > 0:14:06I'll be through in a minute.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08Did you see the bruises?
0:14:08 > 0:14:10Nettie is a foster carer.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13Lois has only been with her a week. The bruises are from before.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15They're the reason Lois was taken off her real mum.
0:14:15 > 0:14:17Part of the reason. She won't go into it
0:14:17 > 0:14:19but I've spoken to the caseworker. Lois has been through hell.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22Nettie - this is her first time foster caring. She's in at the deep end.
0:14:22 > 0:14:26No-one else would take on such a difficult case. Oh.
0:14:26 > 0:14:31Uh... OK. I'll talk to her and explain. Apologise.
0:14:31 > 0:14:33Good. I hope you can.
0:14:33 > 0:14:35Because Nettie is Lois's best chance at a fresh start
0:14:35 > 0:14:37and Lois thinks she's close to quitting.
0:14:37 > 0:14:40This could push her over the edge. She's gone.
0:14:40 > 0:14:43What? She can't have. I just left her there.
0:14:43 > 0:14:44Well, she's not there!
0:14:46 > 0:14:49I'm ever so sorry. I was just trying to help.
0:14:49 > 0:14:53I was trying to help. That's all I'm trying to do.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56She must have gone out the back. She can't have got far on foot.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58Any idea where she might have gone? I don't know.
0:14:58 > 0:14:59I don't know her at all.
0:14:59 > 0:15:03You go back to your place. See if she's gone to collect her things.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05Me and Dr Clay, we'll...
0:15:05 > 0:15:08We'll find her. We will.
0:15:09 > 0:15:10KNOCK AT THE DOOR
0:15:10 > 0:15:11Come in.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14Sorry, me again. Osteopath referrals?
0:15:14 > 0:15:18Dealt with by Howard. Give him the details and he'll sort it.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21Do you think I messed up with him this morning?
0:15:21 > 0:15:23Just, he's been "on the phone" whenever I've knocked.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26Don't worry about it. He's probably just busy.
0:15:26 > 0:15:28I know, I'm being silly.
0:15:28 > 0:15:30It's just after what happened at the old practice,
0:15:30 > 0:15:32it can make you a bit paranoid.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34Yeah. Zara told me that one day
0:15:34 > 0:15:38they just announced that everything was changing. "Go big or go home."
0:15:38 > 0:15:40Yeah. Which is why I wanted to do locum work.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42Come in, see the patients, not get too involved.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45Never quite that simple, though, is it? Hmm.
0:15:46 > 0:15:50It just all seemed to happen at once. The practice falling apart.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52The divorce.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54Suppose I'm not as tough as I thought I was.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57Not if you care about what Howard Bellamy thinks of you, no.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59SHE LAUGHS
0:15:59 > 0:16:03It was a genuine misunderstanding. I should've waited, asked him later.
0:16:03 > 0:16:05I just need a man who can dance.
0:16:05 > 0:16:06What for?
0:16:07 > 0:16:10I've signed up to these ballroom dancing classes.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13Kick-start my life again. I had it all lined up,
0:16:13 > 0:16:16but the guy I was going with suddenly got a new job in Edinburgh.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19He was gay, but it's not a prerequisite.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21Any able-bodied man will do.
0:16:21 > 0:16:22What about me?
0:16:22 > 0:16:24You? Why not?
0:16:24 > 0:16:27I've been looking for a new challenge, get me out of the house.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30Won't Zara mind? Why would she?
0:16:30 > 0:16:33I don't know. Staying at home with Joe...
0:16:33 > 0:16:35It's fine, I'll find someone.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37No, I really want to do it. I'll speak to her.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40And in the meantime, have a chat with Howard.
0:16:40 > 0:16:42Tell him he's off the hook.
0:16:42 > 0:16:43OK.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48Thanks, Daniel. All right.
0:16:51 > 0:16:52Zara'll be cool.
0:16:57 > 0:16:58Lois... Lois!
0:16:58 > 0:17:00Hey! Get back.
0:17:00 > 0:17:02It's all right! I know her. I'll get her.
0:17:06 > 0:17:08'She ran after him as fast as she could.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11'If she could only run fast enough, she might just catch up with him
0:17:11 > 0:17:13'and they could vanish together, for ever.'
0:17:13 > 0:17:15You have to stop. No, let me go!
0:17:15 > 0:17:17Where to? Back home?
0:17:17 > 0:17:19No! Then where?
0:17:19 > 0:17:20Ow!
0:17:23 > 0:17:24You're not going anywhere.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26It doesn't hurt when I'm running.
0:17:30 > 0:17:31You have to stop.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34THEY PANT
0:17:34 > 0:17:37Lois? Lois, are you in here?
0:17:42 > 0:17:46I know this story. It's from round here, isn't it? Leamington.
0:17:48 > 0:17:50Leamington Spa to Coventry.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52He never got there.
0:17:52 > 0:17:54I always thought they made it up.
0:17:54 > 0:17:56The friends did him in.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58No! He vanished.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01It's a mystery.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Is this your favourite book?
0:18:03 > 0:18:06My dad had one just like it. He left it behind.
0:18:07 > 0:18:10Where did he go?
0:18:10 > 0:18:11Mum said she didn't know.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16I think it was a clue. That book.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19The page was folded over.
0:18:19 > 0:18:24He wanted me to follow him to Coventry, but I couldn't. Why not?
0:18:26 > 0:18:29Mum wasn't safe to be left drinking alone.
0:18:29 > 0:18:30And her boyfriends...
0:18:32 > 0:18:33..even worse.
0:18:35 > 0:18:36It was like I couldn't get away.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42Except in your head and with this book?
0:18:44 > 0:18:48I kept it safe, hidden for years.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50Till she found it and tore it up.
0:18:51 > 0:18:54That's when I lost it.
0:18:54 > 0:18:55It's when I escaped.
0:18:55 > 0:18:57Except I haven't, have I?
0:19:01 > 0:19:04Do you really think he's in Coventry?
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Really?
0:19:07 > 0:19:09I don't know.
0:19:09 > 0:19:11He could be anywhere, if he fell through a hole like that man.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13But wherever he went,
0:19:13 > 0:19:16there was no-one stopping him, was there, if he wanted to find you?
0:19:17 > 0:19:20God, I'm sorry. That was horrible.
0:19:20 > 0:19:22It might not be true, he might be ill or d...
0:19:24 > 0:19:26You're not going to find him like this, Lois.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28You're just hurting yourself.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31What do you know? You don't know me. You don't know anything!
0:19:34 > 0:19:37I... I vanished, kind of.
0:19:37 > 0:19:38I fell through a hole.
0:19:40 > 0:19:41I lost my mum.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45I lost everything I thought was real.
0:19:47 > 0:19:53It nearly sent me crazy, but the people who cared for me clung on.
0:19:53 > 0:19:57They showed me what was real and what was just in my head.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00That's all Nettie's trying to do.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03She's not trying to trap you. She's trying to find you.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05Only cos it looks bad.
0:20:05 > 0:20:07She'd love it if I vanished.
0:20:08 > 0:20:09You sure about that?
0:20:13 > 0:20:14Best to be sure,
0:20:14 > 0:20:18if you've had to be good at imagining things.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26See this? Good, solid ground.
0:20:26 > 0:20:28Think you can walk on it?
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Lois, thank God. Are you all right?
0:20:43 > 0:20:45How did you get that?
0:20:45 > 0:20:47Tell me you didn't pinch it. I told you to wait.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53It was only a quid. It's the principle of the thing.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57You've got her back now, that's all that matters. No, I haven't.
0:20:57 > 0:20:59I never had her.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02I don't think I can do this any more.
0:21:04 > 0:21:08I thought I could make someone an OK kind of mum.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Show them what a good home was.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12It's right that you have rules.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16She needs that. But you can't then expect her to be grateful.
0:21:16 > 0:21:20She's going to kick off, run to her room, slam doors. All kids do that.
0:21:20 > 0:21:21Even the nice ones.
0:21:21 > 0:21:25She needs someone who knows what they're doing. I haven't got a clue.
0:21:25 > 0:21:28You're it! She hasn't got anybody else.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30The last thing she needs is to fall down another hole.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32She fell down a hole?
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Not a real one. Like in the book. The man who vanishes.
0:21:34 > 0:21:38Man who vanishes? What's that got to do with anything?
0:21:38 > 0:21:41You haven't got any idea what's going on in her head, have you?
0:21:48 > 0:21:50SHE ZIPS UP THE BAG
0:21:52 > 0:21:53NETTIE KNOCKS
0:21:55 > 0:21:58You didn't try to escape out the window, then?
0:21:58 > 0:22:00My foot hurts too much.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03And I'll be going anyway now, so... Do you really want to go?
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Do you want me to go? Another question.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10What's the answer? Go on.
0:22:10 > 0:22:14You've got all the answers, don't you? The answer is...
0:22:14 > 0:22:17Honestly, Lois, I don't know.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20I don't know if I want you to go or not.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22I don't even know you.
0:22:22 > 0:22:23How do you think I feel?
0:22:25 > 0:22:26Why don't you have a hug?
0:22:27 > 0:22:31Go on. You don't have to know each other to make it feel better.
0:22:38 > 0:22:40Solid ground.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42The job is a good'un!
0:22:42 > 0:22:44Thanks, Al, but you didn't have to do the whole house.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47That's always been my problem. I'm just too good.
0:22:47 > 0:22:49I've saved your universe
0:22:49 > 0:22:52and I've still got time to go back and finish my paperwork.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54I'm sorry if I hit a nerve earlier.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57What? No, I told you, I'm over it.
0:22:57 > 0:22:59I just think you should know
0:22:59 > 0:23:02that the reason Niamh is down is because she really likes you
0:23:02 > 0:23:05and she thinks you don't like her. What are you talking about?
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Come on, I know what you're doing.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10You're just putting up barriers because of what happened with Jas.
0:23:10 > 0:23:12But this is different. She really likes you.
0:23:12 > 0:23:13Will you stop saying that!
0:23:13 > 0:23:16But it's true. Please, just stop it. I know what's going on.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18You've hurt your leg and you're bored,
0:23:18 > 0:23:20you're looking for a bit of gossip
0:23:20 > 0:23:22so you thought, "I know, I'll play a trick on Haskey.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24"He's always good for a laugh." I do not think that.
0:23:24 > 0:23:27I don't care what you think about me, OK?
0:23:27 > 0:23:29I don't care about any of you.
0:23:30 > 0:23:31I'm going.
0:23:35 > 0:23:39Hello! Hi. Erm...
0:23:39 > 0:23:40I brought the police.
0:23:40 > 0:23:44But you don't have to press charges. I've got a pound for Lois's book.
0:23:44 > 0:23:45Thank you.
0:23:45 > 0:23:50And I'll take all of your classic movie DVDs, please?
0:23:54 > 0:23:57There was nothing in your case notes about any of this.
0:23:57 > 0:24:00I never told them. If they'd locked me up in the loony bin,
0:24:00 > 0:24:02I'd never be able to get out and find him.
0:24:02 > 0:24:06We can try to find him, if that's what you want?
0:24:06 > 0:24:07I don't know.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09Maybe he's better off in my head.
0:24:09 > 0:24:13If you get the feeling like you need to run again, will you let me know?
0:24:13 > 0:24:15You said dreams were boring.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Mine are.
0:24:17 > 0:24:20But I've had a boring life, till the last week, at least.
0:24:20 > 0:24:22DOORBELL RINGS
0:24:23 > 0:24:25That's probably the police.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27Or the case worker.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29What are you going to tell them?
0:24:29 > 0:24:31Do you want to stay here or...?
0:24:31 > 0:24:33DOORBELL RINGS AGAIN
0:24:41 > 0:24:45Hope you don't mind. Karen said it'd be OK to bring these over.
0:24:48 > 0:24:50Figured they might as well be going to a good home.
0:24:52 > 0:24:54How come you're not shopping me?
0:24:54 > 0:24:57Well, anyone who loves books enough to nick them
0:24:57 > 0:24:58can't be all bad, I reckon.
0:25:00 > 0:25:01I got some for you, too.
0:25:04 > 0:25:05Oh, thank you.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08And these history books...
0:25:08 > 0:25:09if you still want them?
0:25:10 > 0:25:12Do we still want them, Lois?
0:25:12 > 0:25:13Do you fancy Nettie?
0:25:15 > 0:25:17Eh...
0:25:17 > 0:25:20I'm not her real daughter. I'm just staying here.
0:25:20 > 0:25:21She hasn't got a boyfriend.
0:25:23 > 0:25:24I'll just tidy these away.
0:25:27 > 0:25:28Have you got time for a cup of tea?
0:25:30 > 0:25:31Yes, please.
0:25:31 > 0:25:33I'm glad you're staying.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35You sure?
0:25:41 > 0:25:42Perfect. Naturally.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46I left the wrapping paper in my room. Back in a minute.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49Oh. Just one thing. I was talking to Toni before
0:25:49 > 0:25:52and I'd like to try this dance class she's going to.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56It's ballroom dancing. What do you think? What do I think?
0:25:58 > 0:25:59Rather you than me.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01You don't mind? Why would I?
0:26:01 > 0:26:04It would mean me leaving you at home with Joe.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07No, believe you me. I will be having my own night out.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10And I'll be doing something much more fun than ballroom dancing.
0:26:10 > 0:26:12I'll probably hate it.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15Actually, it'll do you good to lose some weight.
0:26:15 > 0:26:18It'll do Toni some good as well. Great, I'll tell her.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21I'll get the wrapping paper. Meet you at the car.
0:26:21 > 0:26:24And then soft play hell! You really think she doesn't mind?
0:26:24 > 0:26:25What?
0:26:25 > 0:26:27You going dancing with Dr Hot Legs.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29Come on, it's Toni.
0:26:29 > 0:26:30Nothing wrong with Toni, mate.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33Look, Toni is Zara's friend. I'm doing her a favour.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35Zara's not going to mind.
0:26:35 > 0:26:37If you believe that, you'll believe anything.
0:26:57 > 0:26:58Oh!
0:26:58 > 0:27:00THEY LAUGH
0:27:01 > 0:27:03# Doo doo-doo-doo... #
0:27:09 > 0:27:11ELECTRONIC VOICE: Good night!
0:27:12 > 0:27:14No!
0:27:14 > 0:27:17Yes! You can't take them to a restaurant.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19They're human remains!
0:27:19 > 0:27:20No-one will know.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22I thought Mrs Barker was on today.
0:27:22 > 0:27:25She's got some kind of stomach bug. Will I do?
0:27:25 > 0:27:27ELECTRONIC VOICE: Call me!
0:27:27 > 0:27:30Fair enough. Roger that.
0:28:02 > 0:28:04# Be my, be my baby... #
0:28:04 > 0:28:07I just feel like my whole body's been taken over by an alien.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09# ..Say you'll be my darling... #
0:28:09 > 0:28:12She's my age. She's four years younger than you, Mum,
0:28:12 > 0:28:14and she's eight months pregnant.
0:28:14 > 0:28:16Rick? He left.
