0:00:24 > 0:00:26Take this, make yourself scarce.

0:00:26 > 0:00:28You'll get the same again in January.

0:00:29 > 0:00:31Just don't show your face over Christmas.

0:00:31 > 0:00:35Everyone on campus already thinks I'm some sort of...skank.

0:00:35 > 0:00:38I'd die if my mum and dad found out.

0:00:38 > 0:00:41I had a neighbour who had a new hip last year,

0:00:41 > 0:00:43and she was back walking again in ten days.

0:00:43 > 0:00:45Really?

0:00:45 > 0:00:47So you could be home for Christmas!

0:00:47 > 0:00:48It's possible.

0:00:48 > 0:00:49Let us help you. Sit down.

0:00:49 > 0:00:50Go to hell.

0:00:50 > 0:00:52Pigs.

0:00:52 > 0:00:53You're all liars!

0:00:54 > 0:00:55Tell me.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58She had a stroke.

0:01:04 > 0:01:05Put it down. Put it down now!

0:01:05 > 0:01:07I've got nothing left!

0:01:07 > 0:01:08I'm warning you.

0:01:08 > 0:01:10Stop telling me what to do!

0:01:10 > 0:01:13SCREAMING

0:01:13 > 0:01:15SHE WAILS

0:01:15 > 0:01:17You can talk to me, you know.

0:01:17 > 0:01:20I know, just...drunks trying to ruin Christmas, you know?

0:01:20 > 0:01:22Oh. Well, we are going to have the best one ever.

0:01:22 > 0:01:24- So don't sweat it.- I won't.

0:01:28 > 0:01:29BELL RINGING

0:01:29 > 0:01:31I'm sorry. I...

0:01:33 > 0:01:34I shouldn't have lost my temper.

0:01:37 > 0:01:40Can we just please put the whole episode behind us?

0:01:42 > 0:01:44Jasmine, can you look at me?

0:01:46 > 0:01:48- Jasmine? - What?

0:01:50 > 0:01:54Fine. I'll pick you up at four. I might be a bit late because I've...

0:01:56 > 0:01:57..got a meeting.

0:01:59 > 0:02:00Hey! Nice Christmas?

0:02:03 > 0:02:04VALERIE HUMMING

0:02:06 > 0:02:07Oh.

0:02:07 > 0:02:09Keep coming.

0:02:09 > 0:02:10Keep coming. You've got plenty of room.

0:02:10 > 0:02:11Keep coming...

0:02:11 > 0:02:12STOP!

0:02:18 > 0:02:20Thanks, Valerie.

0:02:20 > 0:02:21Now, I'm not much of a driver,

0:02:21 > 0:02:23but that looks decidedly dangerous.

0:02:23 > 0:02:26Yeah, I was all right until I went over that hump turning in.

0:02:26 > 0:02:28Mind you, you do pack lightly, considering.

0:02:28 > 0:02:30If it was me, I'd need a man with a van.

0:02:30 > 0:02:31I'm a bit of a hoarder.

0:02:31 > 0:02:34Yeah, well, vans cost money, so I'm doing the rest later.

0:02:34 > 0:02:35Oh! With Tasty Tyler?

0:02:35 > 0:02:37- Not likely.- Oh.

0:02:37 > 0:02:38Yeah, the last thing I need

0:02:38 > 0:02:41is Tyler giving me grief about all the stuff I've got.

0:02:41 > 0:02:44- Oh, live in a rabbit hutch, does he?- Practically.

0:02:44 > 0:02:46Have you thought about getting somewhere bigger?

0:02:46 > 0:02:48- We looked. There was nothing we liked.- Really?

0:02:48 > 0:02:51Well, there was one place, but it was out of our price range.

0:02:51 > 0:02:52Testing times ahead, then?

0:02:53 > 0:02:54Maybe.

0:02:54 > 0:02:56You don't sound very optimistic.

0:02:56 > 0:02:57No, I am.

0:02:57 > 0:02:58Things are great.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00I mean, yeah, he winds me up and everything,

0:03:00 > 0:03:03but he does the washing up without me asking,

0:03:03 > 0:03:05puts the loo seat down when he's done,

0:03:05 > 0:03:08and he gives a foot rub to die for.

0:03:08 > 0:03:09- Can't complain.- Ohh!

0:03:09 > 0:03:11I would love a man that gave a good foot rub.

0:03:12 > 0:03:14Feet are riddled with erogenous zones, aren't they?

0:03:20 > 0:03:22GIRLS GIGGLING

0:03:29 > 0:03:32- WOMAN: - WHY AREN'T YOU IN PE?

0:03:32 > 0:03:33We were just going, miss.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38Jasmine, what happened there?

0:03:40 > 0:03:41Nothing, miss.

0:03:43 > 0:03:45Leelee, go on to class, please.

0:03:45 > 0:03:47Jasmine...

0:03:47 > 0:03:48Jasmine, my office.

0:03:54 > 0:03:59- Ohhh, Mrs Coombes just asked me to look at her dog's dodgy paw.- Ha.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01Isn't it enough I have to look at her manky feet?

0:04:03 > 0:04:04What's wrong with you two?

0:04:06 > 0:04:07Nothing.

0:04:08 > 0:04:10It's just not going to be the same, is it?

0:04:10 > 0:04:12Guys, I'm not moving to another country.

0:04:12 > 0:04:15We are going to be still working in the same building.

0:04:15 > 0:04:17- Hmm.- And I'm seeing you on Friday.

0:04:17 > 0:04:18- Oh, yeah. Games night.- Oh.

0:04:18 > 0:04:20Yeah, that's not going to stop.

0:04:21 > 0:04:23Still going to be different, though.

0:04:23 > 0:04:24Well, look at it this way.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27At least you get all the shelf space in the bathroom, now.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29That's a good point!

0:04:29 > 0:04:30So what do I get?

0:04:31 > 0:04:33Well...

0:04:33 > 0:04:35You won't have to put up with her singing out of tune.

0:04:35 > 0:04:36That is true.

0:04:36 > 0:04:39- What do you mean "out of tune"?! - LAUGHTER

0:04:39 > 0:04:41Oh, I am going to miss you.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43- Group hug? - Go on, then.

0:04:44 > 0:04:47AYESHA CHUCKLES EMMA SIGHS

0:04:48 > 0:04:51Is it just me, or is this just a little bit pathetic?

0:04:51 > 0:04:53THEY LAUGH

0:04:56 > 0:04:57Mm-hm, yeah.

0:04:57 > 0:04:59And how old's the minor?

0:04:59 > 0:05:00OK.

0:05:00 > 0:05:03And who did you say my point of contact was?

0:05:03 > 0:05:05Mrs Noah. Right. Well, I think I've got all I need.

0:05:05 > 0:05:08I'll be... Oh, should be there in about 20 minutes.

0:05:08 > 0:05:09OK, thanks.

0:05:09 > 0:05:11Sarge.

0:05:11 > 0:05:13It's definitely Ferdy Scott on the CCTV.

0:05:13 > 0:05:15Ah, good old Ferdinand.

0:05:15 > 0:05:17Why don't you check out all his usual haunts

0:05:17 > 0:05:18and bring him in as soon as?

0:05:18 > 0:05:20Well, DC Hunter's already on it.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22You said I could go out for an hour.

0:05:22 > 0:05:24Oh, yes, you've got your move, haven't you?

0:05:24 > 0:05:25Right. OK, fair enough.

0:05:25 > 0:05:28Well, if anybody needs me, I'll be at St Olivia's school.

0:05:28 > 0:05:30Child Protection are short-staffed,

0:05:30 > 0:05:33- they've asked me to look into an allegation of assault.- Right.

0:05:33 > 0:05:35- Rather you than me.- Mmm.

0:05:42 > 0:05:46I've just been thinking how much we were like you and Tyler,

0:05:46 > 0:05:48- me and Ashley.- Really?- Mm.

0:05:48 > 0:05:49Chalk and cheese.

0:05:49 > 0:05:51Yeah, well, we're not like chalk and cheese.

0:05:51 > 0:05:54No, we didn't think we were at the beginning.

0:05:54 > 0:05:57Mystery. Now, that is the key to a long-lasting relationship.

0:05:57 > 0:05:58I'll bear that in mind.

0:05:58 > 0:06:01No, seriously, if I hadn't seen Ashley trimming his nose hair

0:06:01 > 0:06:03we might have stood a fighting chance.

0:06:03 > 0:06:04Yeah, but Tyler's a lad. I expect all that.

0:06:04 > 0:06:08Hmm. Yeah, but you never really know a person, do you?

0:06:08 > 0:06:10I mean, you're fine, now, cos you're in the honeymoon period.

0:06:10 > 0:06:12Valerie!

0:06:12 > 0:06:14Oh, ignore me. Sorry.

0:06:14 > 0:06:16SHE LAUGHS THEN SIGHS

0:06:16 > 0:06:19It's just I really thought Ashley and I were soul mates, you see.

0:06:20 > 0:06:22Ah, you never really know, do you?

0:06:28 > 0:06:30We've had our eye on Jasmine for the past year.

0:06:30 > 0:06:32She's changed dramatically.

0:06:32 > 0:06:35She used to be really popular, you know, sweet,

0:06:35 > 0:06:38but now she's aggressive with some of the other children.

0:06:38 > 0:06:41We've suspected there's something going on at home.

0:06:41 > 0:06:43And she's saying that her mother hit her?

0:06:43 > 0:06:45Well, I wouldn't have made the call otherwise.

0:06:45 > 0:06:47No, of course not.

0:06:47 > 0:06:49Are the Wilsons known to social services?

0:06:49 > 0:06:52This is the first time.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55You know, at St Olivia's, we pride ourselves on our pastoral care.

0:06:55 > 0:06:57Sergeant Hollins, I really don't want this child

0:06:57 > 0:06:59- falling between the gaps.- No.

0:07:00 > 0:07:02Neither do I.

0:07:02 > 0:07:06- ANSWER MACHINE BEEPS - Hi Adam. It's only me. Again!

0:07:06 > 0:07:08Erm...

0:07:08 > 0:07:12Just ringing to say if you're hungry there's soup in the fridge.

0:07:13 > 0:07:15OK... Anything you need, just...

0:07:15 > 0:07:18just let me know. Got to go. Er, OK. Bye, bye. Bye, bye.

0:07:19 > 0:07:20Hi, sorry.

0:07:20 > 0:07:23Can I see Dr Clay, please? It's Rosie Griffiths.

0:07:23 > 0:07:25Erm, I'm sorry, Dr Clay's not here,

0:07:25 > 0:07:27but you could see Dr Carter?

0:07:27 > 0:07:29Is that a man or a woman?

0:07:29 > 0:07:31It's a man, but he's very nice.

0:07:31 > 0:07:33If you need to see a woman, you'd have to go over to the Mill.

0:07:33 > 0:07:35It doesn't matter. Dr Carter's fine.

0:07:35 > 0:07:37OK. Rosie Griffiths.

0:07:38 > 0:07:40- Do you want to take a seat, Rosie?- Yeah.

0:07:42 > 0:07:43OK, next please.

0:07:43 > 0:07:45- What's your name?- Chris Smith.

0:07:49 > 0:07:50Jasmine,

0:07:50 > 0:07:53I only want you to tell Beverley and I what you told Mrs Noah.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59Jasmine, would you like something else to drink?

0:07:59 > 0:08:01Some orange juice?

0:08:01 > 0:08:03Can I have some apple juice, please?

0:08:04 > 0:08:05Apple juice. Yeah, great.

0:08:05 > 0:08:07Apple juice, that's a good choice.

0:08:09 > 0:08:11You're not in any trouble, OK?

0:08:11 > 0:08:15We just need to establish exactly what happened.

0:08:16 > 0:08:17Will she get into trouble?

0:08:19 > 0:08:21You know, my main concern is keeping you safe,

0:08:21 > 0:08:23but we can't do that...

0:08:23 > 0:08:24until you tell us what went on.

0:08:26 > 0:08:28The unicorn smashed by accident.

0:08:29 > 0:08:31The unicorn?

0:08:31 > 0:08:32It's a statue.

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Right. OK.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39What happened then?

0:08:39 > 0:08:43And she got all like crazy, like ballistic on me, and...

0:08:43 > 0:08:44hit me.

0:08:45 > 0:08:46When was that?

0:08:46 > 0:08:48Last night.

0:08:49 > 0:08:50Right.

0:08:50 > 0:08:53And whereabouts did she hit you, on your body?

0:08:54 > 0:08:56On my leg.

0:08:56 > 0:08:58I dunno. All over.

0:08:58 > 0:08:59All right.

0:09:01 > 0:09:03Jasmine, does your mum...

0:09:05 > 0:09:06..hit you a lot?

0:09:07 > 0:09:09Yes. But nowhere you can see.

0:09:13 > 0:09:14What can I do for you?

0:09:14 > 0:09:16Erm, I'd like some sleeping pills.

0:09:19 > 0:09:22- I understand you've been seeing Dr Clay.- Mm-hm.

0:09:22 > 0:09:25And he suggested breathing exercises.

0:09:25 > 0:09:27Yeah, they don't work. That's why I'm here.

0:09:27 > 0:09:29OK. Have you considered counselling?

0:09:29 > 0:09:32- No.- It can be very helpful in getting to the root

0:09:32 > 0:09:33of why you're not sleeping.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35I don't see the point in going over things.

0:09:35 > 0:09:37Well, I can't just keep prescribing.

0:09:37 > 0:09:39You have to get to the root of the issue.

0:09:39 > 0:09:41I have got to the root of the issue!

0:09:41 > 0:09:43It's on my mind all the time!

0:09:44 > 0:09:45I'm sorry...

0:09:45 > 0:09:48I just feel like going over and over it makes it worse.

0:09:49 > 0:09:50Please, Dr Carter,

0:09:50 > 0:09:52I just want to forget about it.

0:09:53 > 0:09:54I just want to sleep.

0:09:59 > 0:10:01Where is she? I'd like to see her.

0:10:01 > 0:10:02Mrs Wilson, Jasmine's fine.

0:10:02 > 0:10:03So why won't you let me see her?

0:10:03 > 0:10:05- Please, take a seat. - I don't want to take a seat.

0:10:05 > 0:10:09And I don't want another cup of tea, either. I just...

0:10:09 > 0:10:11I have been called into school by the police

0:10:11 > 0:10:14and no-one will tell me why, so if something's happened...

0:10:14 > 0:10:16You can calm down, because, like I say, Jasmine is fine.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19So what's going on?

0:10:20 > 0:10:22There's been an allegation of an assault.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26- But you just said she was fine. - She is.

0:10:27 > 0:10:28Right, so...

0:10:30 > 0:10:32So has...has she hit someone?

0:10:32 > 0:10:34It's another child? Oh, right, right, OK,

0:10:34 > 0:10:36so she's been fighting, has she?

0:10:36 > 0:10:38Is the other child OK?

0:10:38 > 0:10:41No-one else is involved. Yes, Jasmine has been hit...

0:10:42 > 0:10:44..but she says by you.

0:10:48 > 0:10:50According to your notes, you were sleeping much better

0:10:50 > 0:10:52until an incident with an ex-partner.

0:10:54 > 0:10:56How have you been feeling since then?

0:10:56 > 0:10:58Great. Bright and breezy. Can't you tell?

0:10:58 > 0:11:00Mm-hm.

0:11:00 > 0:11:01Do you have problems concentrating?

0:11:02 > 0:11:04I don't know.

0:11:04 > 0:11:06I haven't been doing much recently.

0:11:06 > 0:11:07Maybe.

0:11:09 > 0:11:10I've been praying a lot.

0:11:10 > 0:11:12Does that help?

0:11:12 > 0:11:13(Yeah.)

0:11:14 > 0:11:15This incident,

0:11:15 > 0:11:18- do you mind telling me a little more about it?- Yes.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23Look, I consented to it.

0:11:23 > 0:11:26It's my fault. It's just something I regret, now. That's all.

0:11:26 > 0:11:28I really think you should let me refer you to student counselling.

0:11:28 > 0:11:31No, I've told you, I don't want to go over it!

0:11:31 > 0:11:34Look, Jimmi said if I didn't get any better he'll give me the pills

0:11:34 > 0:11:36- so I'll just get them from him tomorrow.- Rosie...

0:11:38 > 0:11:40Stop looking at me!

0:11:52 > 0:11:54SHE WEEPS

0:11:56 > 0:12:00Mrs Wilson, you are not under caution, you're not under arrest.

0:12:00 > 0:12:01This is just a simple conversation.

0:12:01 > 0:12:03So, why not just tell me over the phone

0:12:03 > 0:12:05rather than drag me all the way down here?

0:12:05 > 0:12:08Because I wanted to get a proper sense of what's going on.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11Is it just you and Jasmine in the house, or is there anyone else?

0:12:11 > 0:12:14- This is insane. - You may say that.

0:12:14 > 0:12:16But the school and social services clearly think that

0:12:16 > 0:12:18there is reason for concern.

0:12:20 > 0:12:21Yes,

0:12:21 > 0:12:23it's just the two of us.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25It has been for a year.

0:12:26 > 0:12:27Her father walked out.

0:12:27 > 0:12:29Any other influences?

0:12:29 > 0:12:32Any new friends? Anything that has changed in that area?

0:12:32 > 0:12:33Yes.

0:12:33 > 0:12:34Leelee Davies.

0:12:34 > 0:12:37They're always together, she's the one in a foster home.

0:12:38 > 0:12:40It's not that I've got anything against those kind of kids

0:12:40 > 0:12:43but she's the reason why Jasmine is like she is.

0:12:43 > 0:12:44And how's that?

0:12:44 > 0:12:46Argumentative.

0:12:46 > 0:12:47Aggressive.

0:12:47 > 0:12:48Always trying to wind me up.

0:12:48 > 0:12:50And she's even changed at school.

0:12:50 > 0:12:52Mrs Noah will tell you all about that.

0:12:52 > 0:12:54She's constantly sniping, chatting back.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57Anything else?

0:12:58 > 0:12:59Yeah.

0:13:01 > 0:13:02Yeah, she...

0:13:02 > 0:13:04she steals from me.

0:13:04 > 0:13:05Money.

0:13:05 > 0:13:06Things.

0:13:07 > 0:13:09When I try to confront her about it

0:13:09 > 0:13:10she just yells in my face or...

0:13:12 > 0:13:13..or hits me.

0:13:15 > 0:13:18Mrs Wilson, do you want to tell us what happened last night?

0:13:19 > 0:13:23She broke something that meant a lot to me.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25And what was that?

0:13:25 > 0:13:28It was a statue. My mother gave it to me before she died,

0:13:28 > 0:13:29but she knows not to touch it,

0:13:29 > 0:13:33and she went ahead and she smashed it, deliberately.

0:13:33 > 0:13:35Right in front of me. And then...

0:13:35 > 0:13:37then she laughed.

0:13:38 > 0:13:40And...

0:13:40 > 0:13:42I just saw red, and...

0:13:44 > 0:13:46Look, I know I shouldn't have hit her

0:13:46 > 0:13:49but you have no idea what she's like.

0:13:50 > 0:13:53Anyway, we... we talked about it, I apologised,

0:13:53 > 0:13:55I thought we'd put it all behind us.

0:13:56 > 0:13:58You have caused a mark, Mrs Wilson.

0:13:59 > 0:14:00- A mark?- A bruise.

0:14:02 > 0:14:05But... But I just tapped her.

0:14:05 > 0:14:08Sometimes what we think is reasonable force is not to them.

0:14:09 > 0:14:11No... I don't know.

0:14:11 > 0:14:14I'm sorry, but I just... I just tapped her on the arm.

0:14:15 > 0:14:16Only her arm?

0:14:16 > 0:14:18You didn't hit her anywhere else?

0:14:18 > 0:14:19No.

0:14:21 > 0:14:23Why? Is she saying that I did?

0:14:29 > 0:14:30PHONE RINGS

0:14:34 > 0:14:36Hiya.

0:14:36 > 0:14:37Hiya, sexy.

0:14:37 > 0:14:38Need a bit of entertaining

0:14:38 > 0:14:39and you fit the bill.

0:14:39 > 0:14:42Love to, but I'm a bit tied up at the moment, hun.

0:14:42 > 0:14:43Ooh, tell me more!

0:14:43 > 0:14:44It's top secret.

0:14:44 > 0:14:48- PECULIAR ACCENT:- If I tell you, I'm going to have to kill you.

0:14:48 > 0:14:49- Who's that?- Ernst Blofeld!

0:14:49 > 0:14:51Who?

0:14:51 > 0:14:52He's basically...

0:14:52 > 0:14:54You know what? Doesn't matter. I'll call you back.

0:14:56 > 0:14:57Huh.

0:15:01 > 0:15:04You don't think she's lying because she's been caught out?

0:15:04 > 0:15:06Well, I don't know whether she has been caught out.

0:15:06 > 0:15:08She has admitted to hitting Jasmine, sort of,

0:15:08 > 0:15:11but if she didn't make that mark on her leg, then...

0:15:11 > 0:15:13she hasn't really committed a crime.

0:15:13 > 0:15:15- SHE SIGHS - This time.

0:15:15 > 0:15:17I would really like to speak to Jasmine again if that's possible.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19But how do you explain the mark?

0:15:19 > 0:15:21Well, I can't. Yet.

0:15:22 > 0:15:25You know that Paulette Wilson works at the university, don't you?

0:15:25 > 0:15:29I mean, she must be well aware that she could lose her job over this.

0:15:29 > 0:15:31Just so you have a full picture.

0:15:31 > 0:15:32Thank you.

0:15:35 > 0:15:38Leelee Davies, what are you doing in here?

0:15:38 > 0:15:41She just wanted to see if I was all right, Miss.

0:15:41 > 0:15:43Well, Jasmine's fine, Leelee.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47If you keep coming out of class, I'll have to put you in detention.

0:15:57 > 0:15:59It's all there.

0:16:00 > 0:16:01It ain't enough.

0:16:03 > 0:16:05- It's what we agreed.- Is it?

0:16:05 > 0:16:07Well, I've got expenses.

0:16:07 > 0:16:09Cost of living, and all that.

0:16:09 > 0:16:11Not my problem.

0:16:11 > 0:16:14Maybe if I give Eesh a little visit,

0:16:14 > 0:16:15it might be.

0:16:15 > 0:16:16Yeah? Try it.

0:16:16 > 0:16:18But don't think the police won't come down on you

0:16:18 > 0:16:21like a tonne of bricks if I give them the say so.

0:16:21 > 0:16:23After your behaviour at St Phil's over Christmas,

0:16:23 > 0:16:26I'd say there's nothing they want more. Enjoy.

0:16:34 > 0:16:35Hello, sweetheart!

0:16:37 > 0:16:38Are you all right?

0:16:41 > 0:16:42Do you want to come upstairs?

0:16:42 > 0:16:43Come on.

0:16:43 > 0:16:45Come on, and I'll make us a cup of tea.

0:16:48 > 0:16:50It's all right, Jasmine, this won't take long,

0:16:50 > 0:16:52will it, Sergeant Hollins?

0:16:52 > 0:16:53I hope not.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57Jasmine, is there any chance at all that you could have got that bruise

0:16:57 > 0:17:00from somewhere else other than from your mum?

0:17:00 > 0:17:03You know, messing around in the playground, maybe?

0:17:03 > 0:17:04I already said.

0:17:04 > 0:17:07I know, but we need to be really sure.

0:17:07 > 0:17:09I am sure.

0:17:09 > 0:17:13Only...if we think that your mother is a danger to you,

0:17:13 > 0:17:16then you can't stay with her for the foreseeable future.

0:17:16 > 0:17:17Is that what you want?

0:17:19 > 0:17:21You and your mum don't get on, do you?

0:17:22 > 0:17:24Why's that?

0:17:24 > 0:17:25I don't know,

0:17:25 > 0:17:28she's always angry. Shouting and stuff.

0:17:28 > 0:17:32Could that be because she's under pressure at work? And...

0:17:32 > 0:17:34Well, it can't be easy being a single parent

0:17:34 > 0:17:36looking after a teenage daughter.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38She was like that before my dad left.

0:17:38 > 0:17:40Where's he now?

0:17:40 > 0:17:41Edinburgh.

0:17:41 > 0:17:42OK.

0:17:42 > 0:17:43Are you in touch with him?

0:17:45 > 0:17:48I know it can't be easy, watching your parents split up.

0:17:50 > 0:17:52And you're lucky to have a friend like Leelee.

0:17:52 > 0:17:53Well, she gets me.

0:17:53 > 0:17:56Yeah. I'm presuming that she's had a tough time

0:17:56 > 0:17:58with her parents, as well.

0:17:58 > 0:18:00She's in a foster home, isn't she?

0:18:01 > 0:18:03Yeah. But she's happier, now.

0:18:03 > 0:18:06Nobody tells her what she wants or what to say.

0:18:06 > 0:18:08Mm. Well, I'm not sure about that.

0:18:09 > 0:18:11Because foster carers and foster parents,

0:18:11 > 0:18:12they're not pushovers.

0:18:13 > 0:18:17Being in a foster home's better than being with my mum.

0:18:17 > 0:18:19Right, so if we did split you two up...

0:18:20 > 0:18:22..is that where you'd want to go?

0:18:24 > 0:18:26You see, the thing is, Jasmine,

0:18:26 > 0:18:29you wouldn't be put into a home straight away.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32Firstly, we would try and place you with relatives.

0:18:32 > 0:18:35And if that didn't work out, you would have a foster carer.

0:18:35 > 0:18:38We would only put you in a home as a last resort.

0:18:40 > 0:18:41So...

0:18:42 > 0:18:45Jasmine, is there any possibility...

0:18:47 > 0:18:49..that you could you have got that bruise from somewhere else?

0:18:49 > 0:18:51Sergeant Hollins, I don't...

0:18:51 > 0:18:54I don't think any of us would blame you

0:18:54 > 0:18:56if you told Mrs Noah that your mum had hit you

0:18:56 > 0:18:58because you wanted to get away from her.

0:18:58 > 0:19:01I think that if I was arguing with my mum all the time,

0:19:01 > 0:19:04and she wouldn't let me see my best friend, I might have done the same.

0:19:04 > 0:19:07She did hit me.

0:19:07 > 0:19:08I'm not lying.

0:19:08 > 0:19:10Yeah.

0:19:10 > 0:19:12But not on your thigh, right?

0:19:15 > 0:19:17I promise you, you won't be in trouble.

0:19:18 > 0:19:19But tell us what happened.

0:19:23 > 0:19:24We did it.

0:19:26 > 0:19:27Me and Leelee.

0:19:29 > 0:19:30Cos I hate her.

0:19:32 > 0:19:34I hate her.

0:19:36 > 0:19:38She's been there for ages.

0:19:38 > 0:19:40I've tried everything I can think of but she just won't budge.

0:19:40 > 0:19:41Hmm.

0:19:43 > 0:19:44Rosie?

0:19:46 > 0:19:48Can you hear me? Rosie?

0:19:48 > 0:19:50I'm not deaf.

0:19:50 > 0:19:52You don't have to go through this on your own.

0:19:52 > 0:19:54I'm not.

0:19:54 > 0:19:55I've told Jimmi.

0:19:55 > 0:19:57I've told Dr Reid.

0:19:57 > 0:19:59I talk and talk about it all the time.

0:19:59 > 0:20:02If you don't want to talk to a student counsellor,

0:20:02 > 0:20:04you can talk to someone more specialised.

0:20:05 > 0:20:08Specialised in what?

0:20:08 > 0:20:09No-one is. That's the point.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12Doesn't matter. I get it now.

0:20:12 > 0:20:14I've got to sort myself out.

0:20:20 > 0:20:23So that's it, is it?

0:20:23 > 0:20:24Yeah, that's it.

0:20:24 > 0:20:26As I said, Social Services are happy that you pose

0:20:26 > 0:20:29no significant risk to your daughter.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31So what about her risk to me?

0:20:32 > 0:20:34I could've lost my job if she'd kept that up.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38So, we just go home, now, do we?

0:20:38 > 0:20:41And we all just pretend to play happy families, hm?

0:20:41 > 0:20:44- Well, that's up to you, I suppose. - Sorry?

0:20:44 > 0:20:47If you wanted, social services could put you in contact

0:20:47 > 0:20:48with counselling and parenting courses

0:20:48 > 0:20:51- so you can get a different perspective on things.- Excuse me?

0:20:51 > 0:20:53I'm not trying to tell you how to raise your daughter,

0:20:53 > 0:20:56but if you both carry on like this, who knows what might happen?

0:21:01 > 0:21:03She's clearly very traumatised.

0:21:03 > 0:21:05And there isn't anything else we can do?

0:21:05 > 0:21:07Well, not unless she co-operates.

0:21:07 > 0:21:08I might give Jimmi a ring.

0:21:08 > 0:21:10Oh, he's in court all day.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12- Oh, right.- Oh, it's just so sad,

0:21:12 > 0:21:15someone so young has to suffer on their own when they don't have to.

0:21:15 > 0:21:17- Mm.- You try to reach out, but...

0:21:18 > 0:21:20How's young Adam doing?

0:21:20 > 0:21:23Oh, not good. He's not eating.

0:21:23 > 0:21:25I don't think he's sleeping.

0:21:26 > 0:21:27It's like he's gone into himself.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29Any change with his mum?

0:21:29 > 0:21:30No. Nothing.

0:21:30 > 0:21:33I honestly don't know what to do.

0:21:33 > 0:21:36I know that I'm crowding him but I can't help myself.

0:21:36 > 0:21:37Mm.

0:21:37 > 0:21:39As long as he knows you're there for him.

0:21:41 > 0:21:42Yeah, I suppose.

0:21:44 > 0:21:45PHONE BLEEPS

0:21:51 > 0:21:53You went too far.

0:21:54 > 0:21:56If they'd charged me, I could have lost my job.

0:21:56 > 0:21:58- SHE LAUGHS - That's all you care about.

0:21:58 > 0:22:00Your stupid work.

0:22:00 > 0:22:01Well, I don't see you complaining about it

0:22:01 > 0:22:04when you get a new pair of trainers or a new phone.

0:22:05 > 0:22:06SHE SIGHS

0:22:08 > 0:22:11What's happened to us, Jasmine? We used to get on.

0:22:11 > 0:22:13No, we never.

0:22:13 > 0:22:15It's me and dad.

0:22:15 > 0:22:16Me and dad got on.

0:22:16 > 0:22:18Sometimes you joined in.

0:22:18 > 0:22:23So you'd like us to...spend some more time together, is that it?

0:22:23 > 0:22:24No,

0:22:24 > 0:22:26I want it to be how it was.

0:22:26 > 0:22:28Me and dad.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32Well, it can't be like that.

0:22:32 > 0:22:33Because of you.

0:22:42 > 0:22:44He wanted to leave.

0:22:45 > 0:22:47No, he didn't. You made him.

0:22:50 > 0:22:52He knows he can phone you or e-mail you.

0:22:52 > 0:22:54I have never stopped him from doing that.

0:22:56 > 0:22:57And has he?

0:23:00 > 0:23:02That's nothing to do with me, love.

0:23:08 > 0:23:10It wasn't that good when he was around, was it?

0:23:11 > 0:23:13You remember what it was like.

0:23:13 > 0:23:15Me and him always at each other's throats.

0:23:16 > 0:23:18It was like a war zone!

0:23:20 > 0:23:22So what's different?

0:23:27 > 0:23:29Oh, what's this?

0:23:29 > 0:23:32Well, considering I blew you out this afternoon,

0:23:32 > 0:23:33I am now completely at your service.

0:23:33 > 0:23:35Do with me as you wish.

0:23:35 > 0:23:36You wouldn't be able to keep up.

0:23:36 > 0:23:37Try me.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40You do remember the size of my bedsit, don't you?

0:23:40 > 0:23:43Yeah, we're just going to have to think creatively.

0:23:43 > 0:23:45That's it, yeah. Get rid of some of the non-essentials.

0:23:45 > 0:23:47Er, think again, Einstein.

0:23:47 > 0:23:48All right. Well,

0:23:48 > 0:23:50I'm driving.

0:23:50 > 0:23:51And we're taking the scenic route.

0:23:51 > 0:23:53What scenic route?

0:23:53 > 0:23:55You'll just have to get in and find out, won't you?

0:23:55 > 0:23:58You do realise the scenic route definitely involves more than

0:23:58 > 0:23:59just driving past a park?

0:24:02 > 0:24:03- Oh, Jimmi!- Heston, what can I do for you?

0:24:03 > 0:24:06I thought you were in court. I was just going to leave a message.

0:24:06 > 0:24:07Yeah, I've just finished.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09I'll be quick. It's about Rosie Griffiths.

0:24:09 > 0:24:11- Is she OK?- Well...

0:24:11 > 0:24:13I'm concerned. She was quite distressed.

0:24:13 > 0:24:16She wanted me to prescribe sleeping tablets.

0:24:17 > 0:24:19I tried to get her to go to student counselling

0:24:19 > 0:24:22- but I wasn't really getting through to her.- Right.

0:24:22 > 0:24:26She kept mentioning you, and erm...

0:24:26 > 0:24:28Yeah. Yeah, yeah. I'll give her a call tomorrow.

0:24:28 > 0:24:29I think that would be very wise.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31OK. Thanks, bye.

0:24:34 > 0:24:35HE SIGHS

0:24:41 > 0:24:42Why've we come here?

0:24:44 > 0:24:45What's going on?

0:24:47 > 0:24:50I managed to get the rent down by 100 a month.

0:24:50 > 0:24:51You are joking?

0:25:05 > 0:25:07Can we go now?

0:25:08 > 0:25:11I've spoken to Beverley, and she agrees with me.

0:25:12 > 0:25:14We need to spend some time apart.

0:25:15 > 0:25:17So, I've called Auntie Sarah...

0:25:17 > 0:25:18- Aunt Sarah?- Yes.

0:25:19 > 0:25:21And you're going to spend two weeks with her.

0:25:23 > 0:25:25And I'm going to do a parenting course.

0:25:28 > 0:25:29I don't know what else to do!

0:25:31 > 0:25:32I've messed up.

0:25:32 > 0:25:33I know, and...

0:25:33 > 0:25:37You doing all this just so you can go and live in some foster home

0:25:37 > 0:25:38tells me that loud and clear.

0:25:39 > 0:25:43Jasmine, I want to get things back to the way they were because...

0:25:45 > 0:25:48..there used to be a you and me too, once, you know?

0:25:52 > 0:25:53I mean...

0:25:53 > 0:25:57who used to take you to swimming club every Tuesday night?

0:25:58 > 0:26:00We used to laugh and chat over hot chocolates after.

0:26:00 > 0:26:01Surely you remember that?

0:26:04 > 0:26:06And then there was all the shopping,

0:26:06 > 0:26:10and watching High School Musical and Strictly.

0:26:10 > 0:26:11BELL RINGS

0:26:11 > 0:26:12Jasmine, I love you...

0:26:15 > 0:26:16..and I want to make this right.

0:26:22 > 0:26:24Sorry I broke the unicorn.

0:26:30 > 0:26:31SHE GASPS

0:26:34 > 0:26:35When did you do all this?

0:26:37 > 0:26:38What,

0:26:38 > 0:26:40you mean when I'm not playing cops and robbers?

0:26:40 > 0:26:42So come on, then. How'd you get 100 off the rent?

0:26:42 > 0:26:45I just told him what a lovely couple of tenants we'd be.

0:26:45 > 0:26:46Quiet.

0:26:46 > 0:26:47No hassle.

0:26:47 > 0:26:50And that I'd do him for handling stolen goods if he didn't.

0:26:51 > 0:26:53No, seriously. He thinks his property is going to be

0:26:53 > 0:26:55in safe hands renting to a copper and a nurse.
