0:00:25 > 0:00:29- It wasn't fair! - I can't find my book!
0:00:29 > 0:00:31Harry promised that I could have a go and then he let Jack.
0:00:31 > 0:00:33For today's lecture, the blue one?
0:00:33 > 0:00:35- Dad, listen!- I saw it earlier.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37Oh! Did you talk to the halfwits next door?
0:00:39 > 0:00:41- What?- The neighbours, about blocking the drive.
0:00:41 > 0:00:43I haven't had time.
0:00:43 > 0:00:45What, I have to do everything?!
0:00:45 > 0:00:48Look at that! I mean, are you stupid?!
0:00:52 > 0:00:54- What?! - Do you have to be so horrible?
0:00:58 > 0:01:01- Hey, everyone.- Morning! - What she said.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03Can I have a go?
0:01:03 > 0:01:06Some patient left it. Haven't the foggiest idea what it is.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08- A block of wood?- No! It's a puzzle.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11I had one just like it when I was a kid.
0:01:11 > 0:01:13You take it all apart and then...
0:01:13 > 0:01:15No, no, no, no, no. Let the maestro have a go.
0:01:15 > 0:01:16Huh! The maestro?
0:01:16 > 0:01:19- It all comes down to Aristotle. - Really?
0:01:19 > 0:01:22His famous theory that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24Almost makes it worth getting up in the morning(!)
0:01:24 > 0:01:26Which means that...
0:01:26 > 0:01:29Right, we're going to abandon Aristotle,
0:01:29 > 0:01:31he didn't know what he was talking about.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33But Gestalt and the idea that the whole has a reality of its own,
0:01:33 > 0:01:37independent of its parts, which would mean that...
0:01:40 > 0:01:41It's impossible!
0:01:41 > 0:01:45Wow! Is the great Al Haskey admitting defeat?
0:01:50 > 0:01:52Oh, just move it, would you?
0:01:54 > 0:01:57Oi, moron, don't walk away!
0:01:57 > 0:01:59What...?!

0:02:48 > 0:02:50Isn't she a beauty?!
0:02:50 > 0:02:55Yes. Maybe in her prime, but she looks a little neglected now.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Is that you telling me off?
0:02:57 > 0:03:01I don't understand why you would leave it like this!
0:03:01 > 0:03:03Never seemed to find the time.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06Anyway, I'm sure, with a bit of TLC, we'll get her started again.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08It is going to need a little more than TLC.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11Perhaps even mouth-to-mouth.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33- KNOCK AT DOOR - Oh! You heard what I said, get out!
0:03:33 > 0:03:35Is that how you speak to all your students?
0:03:35 > 0:03:37Sorry. Morning from hell.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Right, then, lunch.
0:03:39 > 0:03:42- Yeah? - You look like you need a break.
0:03:42 > 0:03:45Oh, what, and all this magically does itself while I'm away?
0:03:45 > 0:03:48I haven't got time for tea, let alone lunch!
0:03:49 > 0:03:51OK, then.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53Look, do you think I want to be here, slaving away,
0:03:53 > 0:03:55while you and Ethan are swanning around out there?
0:03:55 > 0:03:57Is that how you see us?
0:03:57 > 0:03:59You make us sound like a burden!
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Is your life really that terrible?
0:04:01 > 0:04:03Obviously, no, not all of the time.
0:04:03 > 0:04:05Well, why can't you just appreciate what you have?!

0:04:20 > 0:04:22Hello, pal, how you doing?
0:04:22 > 0:04:26'Oh, yeah, yeah, everything's peachy. Really great(!)'
0:04:26 > 0:04:28Any change?
0:04:28 > 0:04:30It's been weeks, Daniel.
0:04:30 > 0:04:32- No reaction, nothing.- Yeah.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35'Bit harsh. I can describe every blotch,
0:04:35 > 0:04:37'every contour of this ceiling.'
0:04:37 > 0:04:41- Well, he's had a very serious brain haemorrhage.- I know.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43I just hoped, when they brought him out of the coma,
0:04:43 > 0:04:45there'd be something, some improvement.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48'I've been working on my inner self.
0:04:48 > 0:04:49'Progressing in leaps and bounds.'
0:04:49 > 0:04:52- What did the consultant say? - She's coming to see him soon.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54She talked about doing some tests.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56OK.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59I don't care what anyone says.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03He's still in there. I know he is!
0:05:05 > 0:05:09Right, I'm ready to work on the carburettor. Spanner?
0:05:09 > 0:05:11Spanner.
0:05:14 > 0:05:15Right.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22- SHE STRAINS - Ah, there we go!
0:05:22 > 0:05:24Nice and clear of any water.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Patient's looking dandy.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28Very funny.
0:05:28 > 0:05:33Well, at least we know there is no problem with the fuel system.
0:05:33 > 0:05:36Which leaves what, mechanical or electrical?
0:05:36 > 0:05:39I think we should look at the sparkplug.
0:05:40 > 0:05:41Plug wrench?
0:05:49 > 0:05:51JJ, when was the last time you cleaned these?
0:05:53 > 0:05:54Ah!
0:05:58 > 0:06:03You know, you can tell a lot about how an engine is running
0:06:03 > 0:06:05just by looking at these.
0:06:05 > 0:06:07What's the diagnosis?
0:06:08 > 0:06:10It is filthy.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14I love it when you talk dirty.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19You have one sparkplug, all you have to do is clean it!
0:06:23 > 0:06:26Oh! I keep hoping it's all been some horrible dream.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28'I can hear you, you know!'
0:06:28 > 0:06:31- The last few weeks have been really tough on you.- And Ethan.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35'I'm going to cut in here. Any idea what this feels like?!'
0:06:35 > 0:06:39He keeps asking all these questions about when his daddy's going to wake up.
0:06:39 > 0:06:40What have you said to him?
0:06:40 > 0:06:45Well, I've tried to explain as best I can, but he's so confused!
0:06:45 > 0:06:48He's even started wetting the bed.
0:06:48 > 0:06:49'Why didn't you tell me?'
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Well, if there's anything I can do...
0:06:51 > 0:06:53We could have him over for a couple of nights.
0:06:53 > 0:06:57Joe would be made up. I think he's adopted Ethan as his big brother.
0:06:59 > 0:07:00It's great they get on so well,
0:07:00 > 0:07:04but I can barely convince Ethan to go to school in the morning.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07The moment he's home, he wants to be here.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Yeah, of course. He's done some lovely drawings for his dad.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13- Yeah.- 'They're one of the few things keeping me going.'
0:07:13 > 0:07:16Ethan's convinced his father's going to be OK.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18Of course, I'm more realistic,
0:07:18 > 0:07:21you know, that Neil will still be the same old grump.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23'OK, I can be a bit of a pain.'
0:07:23 > 0:07:25Tell me I'm not crazy, believing he's going to get better.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27(Come here.)
0:07:27 > 0:07:29'Oi! Less of the touchy-feely stuff, Daniel!
0:07:29 > 0:07:32- 'I thought you were on my side!' - (All right.)
0:07:37 > 0:07:39- How is it? - It's a little high, actually.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43Classic middle-aged man.
0:07:43 > 0:07:44Stressed to the max and lucky
0:07:44 > 0:07:47if I reach retirement before the heart attack.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49Wow, that's a bleak view!
0:07:49 > 0:07:52Happened to my last head of department.
0:07:52 > 0:07:56There's another two lecturers on long-term sick leave.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58So make some changes.
0:07:58 > 0:08:02- What, buy a Harley and head down Route 66?- Yeah!
0:08:02 > 0:08:04Nothing as drastic as that,
0:08:04 > 0:08:06but you can't keep putting yourself under so much pressure.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09Working all hours and not getting enough sleep.
0:08:10 > 0:08:15I could do a bunk to Japan, take that research fellowship.
0:08:15 > 0:08:17What, you've been offered one?
0:08:17 > 0:08:20Yeah, a couple of weeks ago. A big genetics institute.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23- Wow!- Could be just what the doctor ordered. Huh!
0:08:23 > 0:08:26If the diet doesn't improve my health, there's always hara-kiri!
0:08:26 > 0:08:29Um...what does Lara think?
0:08:30 > 0:08:32I haven't told her.
0:08:34 > 0:08:35How come?
0:08:37 > 0:08:42Ethan's settled at school, Lara does her art in her spare time.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45Can't really see it's part of the game plan.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48- And you're OK with that?- Yeah.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50Just...occasionally wonder...
0:08:52 > 0:08:54..how my life got so small.
0:08:57 > 0:09:00- KNOCK AT DOOR - Come in.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06Right, they've been moved. Can I have a painkiller, please?
0:09:06 > 0:09:08Sure. What's the problem?
0:09:08 > 0:09:10I've got a headache.
0:09:10 > 0:09:12- It's weird.- How come?
0:09:12 > 0:09:14Well, I never get them.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17I'm part of this rare subset of humanity that always avoids them.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20- Right. - Mm. It's genetic mutation, really.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24One day, a death ray will hit the planet and only the Haskeys will survive.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Hopefully, a few select others.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28That's terrifying.
0:09:28 > 0:09:31Seriously, though, if it's your first time, it could mean something.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34- What do you reckon caused it? - I don't know.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37Pub, was it?
0:09:37 > 0:09:40I'm not the first man who discovered that grief is best served with ale.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43- Sorry, Al.- Don't be.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46I had a great night, courtesy of my old man.

0:09:58 > 0:10:00You got some news?

0:10:29 > 0:10:314:00?
0:10:31 > 0:10:35I've got a mound of marking to do before then. I'm not making any promises.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40Oh!
0:10:41 > 0:10:43Argh!
0:10:50 > 0:10:52It's a lot to take in.
0:10:54 > 0:10:57The consultant said she'd be back around 5:00.
0:10:58 > 0:11:00Can you stay with me until then?
0:11:00 > 0:11:03Please, Daniel, I don't think I can do this on my own.
0:11:03 > 0:11:04Sure.
0:11:07 > 0:11:09The tests she talked about...
0:11:09 > 0:11:10'Went straight over my head.'
0:11:10 > 0:11:16Basically, she'll be checking to see how Neil's brain responds,
0:11:16 > 0:11:17using various stimuli.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22And if he doesn't respond how he should?
0:11:22 > 0:11:23Well, let's take each step at a time.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26'What does that mean? What aren't you telling us?'
0:11:26 > 0:11:27I need to know.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Neil suffered a pretty devastating brain bleed.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34What happens if he fails these tests?
0:11:34 > 0:11:37Well, they'll do them more than once, so if he passes...
0:11:37 > 0:11:39What happens?
0:11:40 > 0:11:44OK. If Neil doesn't respond at all,
0:11:44 > 0:11:46then it might be time to consider
0:11:46 > 0:11:49whether to switch off his life-support.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52'Wait! Whoa! No-one said anything about...'
0:11:52 > 0:11:55You can't let them do that. You can't!
0:11:55 > 0:12:00Any decision will be made jointly between you and your consultant.
0:12:00 > 0:12:01'And me?! Do I get any say?!
0:12:01 > 0:12:03This is my life we're talking about!'
0:12:03 > 0:12:05I will not give up on him.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11Not unless I'm 100% sure.
0:12:11 > 0:12:15'Honey, please! You've got to fight!
0:12:15 > 0:12:17'You've got to fight for me!'
0:12:19 > 0:12:22Oooh! Al! Al! Have you got a minute?
0:12:22 > 0:12:25- What is it? - It's about one of my patients.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28All right, 56 seconds left.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30OK, well, I was thinking fibromyalgia.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33I mean, I've already ruled out rheumatoid arthritis and SLE, so...
0:12:33 > 0:12:35What are you asking me?
0:12:35 > 0:12:39Well, if I'm on the right lines, before I suggest medication, a referral, or...
0:12:39 > 0:12:44Right. You're the GP, sit at your desk and make a decision. OK?
0:12:44 > 0:12:46Well, yeah, it's...
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Oh!
0:12:53 > 0:12:56I keep thinking about his father, what Neil said.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58'No! Forget about that!'
0:12:58 > 0:13:00How do you mean?
0:13:00 > 0:13:03Well, Neil watched his father die of Alzheimer's.
0:13:03 > 0:13:04He thought it was ghastly.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08He made me promise never to let him get that bad.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11'Look, I-I didn't have a clue back then!'
0:13:11 > 0:13:15Even if he passes these tests, am I right to leave him like this?
0:13:17 > 0:13:18What if he's suffering?
0:13:18 > 0:13:21'What happened to not giving up?! Lara!'
0:13:21 > 0:13:24- At the end of the day, it's what's best for Neil.- Oh, I know.
0:13:26 > 0:13:28But I can't let him go. Not after...
0:13:30 > 0:13:33We had an argument the day of his accident.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35None of this is your fault.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38'He's right. I was acting like an idiot.'
0:13:38 > 0:13:42I can't bear the thought of that being the last thing he remembers.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44'Me, neither.'
0:13:46 > 0:13:49So, you travelled across Europe on this bike?
0:13:49 > 0:13:51Yeah. I went everywhere.
0:13:51 > 0:13:53Paris, Berlin.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56Vienna, Prague - that was my favourite.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59You know, I have always wanted to go to Prague.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02I've heard it is a very magical city.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04With beer at 50 pence a pint, you bet!
0:14:04 > 0:14:06They were great times.
0:14:06 > 0:14:08You know that age when you're in your twenties,
0:14:08 > 0:14:09you think you can do anything?
0:14:09 > 0:14:13Hm. Yes, well, I was working in a hospital in Gaborone.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15This bolt is very tight.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18You've never just pointed to a place on a map, decided to go?
0:14:18 > 0:14:22Well, I, er...I came here.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24- Luckily for me.- Hm.
0:14:24 > 0:14:26Oh, no! Where is that spring gone?
0:14:30 > 0:14:32Come on, Mummy.
0:14:32 > 0:14:35- Can we stop a minute? - I want to see Daddy!
0:14:35 > 0:14:37I know, but there's something I need to tell you first.
0:14:40 > 0:14:44There's some doctors, you see, coming to check on Daddy soon.
0:14:44 > 0:14:45To make him better?
0:14:45 > 0:14:49They're going to do some tests to see how poorly he really is.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52So they can give him some medicine?
0:14:58 > 0:15:01There's something wrong with Daddy's brain, Ethan.
0:15:02 > 0:15:03Do you know what that means?
0:15:03 > 0:15:06- Is that why he can't talk to me? - Yes.
0:15:08 > 0:15:10It's why he can't do a lot of things.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12- Like give me a big hug?- Yes.
0:15:15 > 0:15:18The doctors aren't sure if they can fix...
0:15:18 > 0:15:21All right, as long as they make him better.
0:15:27 > 0:15:29Come on.
0:15:36 > 0:15:37What do I tell Lara?
0:15:40 > 0:15:43A few weeks ago, I might have been able to do something, but now?
0:15:43 > 0:15:46'A few weeks back, I had everything.'
0:15:46 > 0:15:49You see, the thing is, er...
0:15:49 > 0:15:51I lost this guy, um...
0:15:51 > 0:15:54that I was sure I could help.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57- 'Tough break.'- Anyway, um...
0:16:00 > 0:16:05Zara and I have always been able to talk, but after losing John...
0:16:05 > 0:16:07'Do something.
0:16:07 > 0:16:08'While you still can.'
0:16:10 > 0:16:14Here's me, moaning about my life...and there you are.
0:16:18 > 0:16:19Come on, mate.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22Come on, you've got to give me some sort of sign. Something.
0:16:22 > 0:16:28'Right now, I'd give anything just to put things right.
0:16:28 > 0:16:33'Like that day, if only I'd gone to lunch, made time for her.'
0:16:33 > 0:16:36MUSIC: There's A Kind Of Hush by Herman's Hermits
0:16:41 > 0:16:43This was a great idea.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45We should do this more often. Every day, even.
0:16:45 > 0:16:48- Like that's going to happen. - No, I mean it.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51The only important things are you and Ethan.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53Everything else can go hang.
0:16:53 > 0:16:56You sure that wine hasn't gone to your head?
0:16:56 > 0:16:59Like the day we met?
0:16:59 > 0:17:00I came to your exhibition.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03Mm. Dragged by a pal and somewhat inebriated.
0:17:03 > 0:17:05You asked me what I thought of your painting.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08- You said it had good perspective. - Well, I was nervous.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12- Of all the things guaranteed to upset an artist. - It wasn't the drink.
0:17:12 > 0:17:16I was looking at the most beautiful woman I'd ever seen
0:17:16 > 0:17:23and trying to think of something even half-intelligent.
0:17:25 > 0:17:29Well, somehow, it did the trick.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32I'm here, aren't I?
0:17:38 > 0:17:40Lara?
0:17:43 > 0:17:45Lara!
0:17:49 > 0:17:51- MACHINES BEEP - Daddy?
0:17:51 > 0:17:52'Is that you?!'
0:17:52 > 0:17:54Speak to me, Daddy!
0:17:54 > 0:17:57'Oh! Hey, buddy!'
0:17:57 > 0:17:59It's OK, it's OK.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02You know, Daddy loves you very much.
0:18:02 > 0:18:04SHE SIGHS
0:18:07 > 0:18:08- Look!- What?
0:18:08 > 0:18:10His eye, there's a tear!
0:18:10 > 0:18:12- 'She can see me!'- Oh!
0:18:12 > 0:18:15See Daddy's eye, Ethan? This is what we've been waiting for!
0:18:17 > 0:18:18Lara, it could just be a reaction.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21'Oh, be really careful now, Daniel. Think about what you're saying!'
0:18:21 > 0:18:25The eye drops, it's quite common for people who can't blink.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28I'm sorry.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31'No! Please, no! Why would you do that?!
0:18:31 > 0:18:33'Why would you do that to me?!'
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Right. Well, you keep doing what you're doing
0:18:38 > 0:18:41and I'll see you again in about six months, yeah?
0:18:41 > 0:18:44- Six months.- OK.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46HE GROANS
0:18:53 > 0:18:55HE SIGHS
0:18:57 > 0:19:02So, how about it - you and me, motorbike odyssey?
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Do you think the slide is sticking?
0:19:04 > 0:19:06I checked it earlier.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09Ah, right. Well, I will just check it myself, just to make sure.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12- You need a hand? - No. No, I'll be fine.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17Oh!
0:19:17 > 0:19:19You are allowed to curse, you know.
0:19:19 > 0:19:21Some of us have a little more self-restraint!
0:19:21 > 0:19:24- Can I take a look?- Oh!
0:19:24 > 0:19:28Oooh! I think the patient needs a kiss of...
0:19:28 > 0:19:29Oh! Excuse me?!
0:19:29 > 0:19:31Sorry, I just thought you...
0:19:31 > 0:19:34- No, you...you...you did not think. - It was just a kiss!
0:19:34 > 0:19:36Well, you are moving too fast.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39I am... Look, I am not ready for this kind of relationship.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41- My mistake.- I'm...
0:19:48 > 0:19:50- Al? - HE GROANS
0:19:50 > 0:19:53If a correlation exists between conscious experience
0:19:53 > 0:19:55and cerebral activity,
0:19:55 > 0:19:59there must be a purely psychological explanation for this pain.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02- What?- Gestalt.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06I thought that he might be able to explain why I feel like my head's in a vice.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09- You look like hell.- Thank you(!)
0:20:09 > 0:20:12No, I mean it. How much did you drink last night?
0:20:12 > 0:20:15I think I might be experiencing my first migraine.
0:20:16 > 0:20:18I guess that's possible at your age.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21Do you want me to speak to one of the doctors, ask them to check you over?
0:20:21 > 0:20:23No. Don't start fussing, woman.
0:20:24 > 0:20:27I'm sorry.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30The headache is messing with the circuitry of my manners.
0:20:30 > 0:20:32- Right.- Mm.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34What I need to do is go home and lie down.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37- If you're sure? - Yeah. Doctor's orders.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40Oh! Could you pass on...?
0:20:40 > 0:20:43Oof! I don't think I should be driving like this, either.
0:20:43 > 0:20:44Could you call me a cab, please?
0:20:45 > 0:20:48HE SIGHS
0:20:50 > 0:20:52- SHE SIGHS - They're late.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Yeah.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57Maybe you were right, it was nothing.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00'Don't say that! Don't listen to him!'
0:21:00 > 0:21:03Maybe the consultant's about to tell me he's gone.
0:21:03 > 0:21:07But even if it was just one tiny moment of the old Neil,
0:21:07 > 0:21:09- that's something, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:21:11 > 0:21:14When I think of all the stupid things that used to drive me crazy.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16The way he used to stomp off to work every morning,
0:21:16 > 0:21:19swearing at the neighbour for blocking the drive.
0:21:19 > 0:21:22- What, every morning? - I think they secretly enjoyed it.
0:21:24 > 0:21:27Since Neil's been in hospital, the drive's been clear.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29'Seriously?'
0:21:29 > 0:21:31Even his terrible jokes.
0:21:31 > 0:21:32'Do you remember that one...?'
0:21:32 > 0:21:35- This one, oh, it's so awful, you have to laugh.- Go on.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38- What did the right eye say to the left eye?- I don't know.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40Between you and me, something smells.
0:21:40 > 0:21:42- Oh, dear.- See what I mean?
0:21:47 > 0:21:49- Daniel?- He blinked.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51No, it's like you said.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53'No, no! For once, go with the guy!'
0:21:53 > 0:21:54This was a definite movement.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00- His eye! - I'll, er...I'll fetch a consultant.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05I knew you hadn't left me!
0:22:05 > 0:22:09'Oh! If there is someone up there, then I thank you!
0:22:09 > 0:22:13'Thank you, from the bottom of my heart!'
0:22:15 > 0:22:16- Bye, then.- You're leaving?
0:22:16 > 0:22:19I was never down for surgery, I was just catching up with some paperwork, so...
0:22:19 > 0:22:21Sorry, I really need you here.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23- Excuse me? - Well, Al's had to go home.
0:22:23 > 0:22:25Blinding headache, apparently.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27Between you and me, I don't think he's coping.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29Anyway, we need to cover his patients.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32And I wouldn't ask if we weren't desperate.
0:22:32 > 0:22:33Story of my life, that.
0:22:33 > 0:22:35- Sorry?- Never mind.
0:22:35 > 0:22:36Is everything OK?
0:22:36 > 0:22:39Yeah, yeah. So, er...what have you got for me, then?
0:22:43 > 0:22:45- Daniel?- Let's try something. You hold that, Ethan.
0:22:45 > 0:22:49If we start with the vowels, then the most popular letters.
0:22:49 > 0:22:53All right. Neil, what we're going to do is when we get to a letter
0:22:53 > 0:22:56that you need to spell out a word, you blink, OK?
0:22:56 > 0:22:58'OK! I get it! Come on!
0:22:58 > 0:23:01'Any idea how long I've been waiting to say my piece?!'
0:23:01 > 0:23:03We'll start with the vowels and the most popular letters.
0:23:03 > 0:23:06So...A, E, I...
0:23:06 > 0:23:09I.
0:23:09 > 0:23:11A, E, I, O...
0:23:11 > 0:23:14'Oh. This could go so wrong.'
0:23:14 > 0:23:16..B, C, D...
0:23:16 > 0:23:18- D.- D.
0:23:18 > 0:23:22OK. A, E, I, O.
0:23:22 > 0:23:24OK, O.
0:23:24 > 0:23:25I-D-O.
0:23:27 > 0:23:28I do.
0:23:28 > 0:23:32I don't understand. What's that, something to do with your marriage?
0:23:32 > 0:23:33Wait, um...
0:23:34 > 0:23:37The day he got sick, I saw Neil at the university.
0:23:37 > 0:23:41He was really stressed out and complaining about everything.
0:23:41 > 0:23:45I asked him why he couldn't just appreciate what he has.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48I think this might be his answer.
0:23:48 > 0:23:52'Yes! Because I do want my life!
0:23:52 > 0:23:54'You and Ethan most of all,
0:23:54 > 0:23:57'but the other stuff, too!
0:23:57 > 0:24:00'The people, the things that infuriate me, I-I don't care.
0:24:00 > 0:24:04'Right now, I'll take it all! Do you hear me? I do!'
0:24:12 > 0:24:14There.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Look, what I said before...
0:24:17 > 0:24:20No, no. I prefer a person to be straight with me.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24It's just that I am uncomfortable with...
0:24:24 > 0:24:28Enjoying yourself, being spontaneous?
0:24:30 > 0:24:33You know, that really saddens me.
0:24:33 > 0:24:37Yes, well, that is just who I am.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40Don't you ever feel trapped by all this respectability?
0:24:43 > 0:24:46When you have been a certain way for a long time, it is...
0:24:48 > 0:24:49..it is difficult to change.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54But I never meant to upset you.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57Your friendship means a great deal to me.
0:25:01 > 0:25:03Ditto.
0:25:03 > 0:25:07You know, for all your faults, you're an amazing woman.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12Well, you are not so bad yourself.
0:25:14 > 0:25:15So, shall we give it a go?
0:25:35 > 0:25:38- Oh!- Before you say anything, I checked that slider.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40I trust you.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51ENGINE PURRS
0:25:52 > 0:25:54- Yes! - THEY LAUGH
0:26:17 > 0:26:19ROCK MUSIC
0:26:37 > 0:26:40- Ah! Someone did the puzzle.- Only me.
0:26:40 > 0:26:42- I'm a lot smarter than I look. - Show me.
0:26:42 > 0:26:45Oh, no, I couldn't. No, no, no. Trade secrets.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48Come on, I want to wind up Al and Sid.
0:26:48 > 0:26:52Oh, OK! OK, a little boy came and did it earlier.
0:26:52 > 0:26:53I've been fiddling with it all day
0:26:53 > 0:26:56and he swans in and does it in under 30 seconds!
0:26:56 > 0:26:59Oooh! Have you phoned Al back to find out how he is?
0:26:59 > 0:27:01I tried, but he wasn't answering.
0:27:01 > 0:27:03Well, I think you should keep trying.
0:27:03 > 0:27:06- It's probably just a migraine. - You can never be too careful.
0:27:06 > 0:27:09How many times have people thought it was just a simple headache?
0:27:09 > 0:27:11And nine times out of ten, it usually is.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13Yeah, well, it's the other times you have to worry about.
0:27:13 > 0:27:16Brain tumours, haemorrhages.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18Now you're just being melodramatic.
0:27:18 > 0:27:20That's probably what Al's mother said to his dad.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22What?
0:27:22 > 0:27:23He died of a stroke, didn't he?
0:27:24 > 0:27:27- You don't think...?- No, I don't.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30- Right.- Absolutely not.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39I'd like you to arrange a meeting with the partners.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41- That sounds serious.- It is.
0:27:41 > 0:27:44- They prey on desperate people like you.- Desperate?
0:27:44 > 0:27:47All they do is find someone who's willing to get pregnant
0:27:47 > 0:27:49and give you the baby.
0:27:49 > 0:27:52- You can't be a surrogate.- Why not?
0:27:52 > 0:27:53Give me one last chance.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58- To do what? - Fair enough. I had to ask.
