0:00:27 > 0:00:28Ronnie.
0:00:30 > 0:00:31Are you all right?
0:00:33 > 0:00:35Yeah, I'm fine. I'm fine. Go on, go back inside.
0:00:35 > 0:00:37Alfie should never have said that.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39No, I should never have come back here.
0:00:39 > 0:00:40Probably not.
0:00:41 > 0:00:45But then, when did we ever make life easy for ourselves?
0:00:45 > 0:00:46Listen, do you want some money?
0:00:46 > 0:00:48- I haven't got much, but I can... - No, no.
0:00:50 > 0:00:51It took guts, Ronnie.
0:00:52 > 0:00:53Coming back here.
0:00:55 > 0:00:56Thank you.
0:01:14 > 0:01:15SHE SNIFFS
0:01:23 > 0:01:26You had no right to put me on the spot like that.
0:01:27 > 0:01:29I tried, Rox. I really did.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33She's my sister. All right? How am I supposed to choose between you?
0:01:37 > 0:01:39- Still here? - It looks like it, don't it?
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Did you know your ex is best mates with Ian Beale?
0:01:41 > 0:01:44- Ian Beale? - Thick as thieves, ain't ya?
0:01:44 > 0:01:46Who'd have thought it, eh?
0:01:46 > 0:01:50- What's she talking about? - A bit of business with the restaurant, that's all.
0:01:50 > 0:01:51Was that really your missus, then?
0:01:54 > 0:01:56I'm going to go and get some air.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01Nah, nah, hold on - are you telling me she stole their baby, bruv,
0:02:01 > 0:02:02you taking the mick?
0:02:02 > 0:02:05- I swear to you.- She better not come near Lexi, I'll tell you that.
0:02:05 > 0:02:06Having a good old gossip, are you?
0:02:06 > 0:02:08Whatever she did, she paid her dues.
0:02:08 > 0:02:09No, Pops. She's a freak.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12She ain't a freak. She's your family.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14- Where are you going now? - I'm going to bring her home.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Poor Alfie.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21It's not Alfie I'm worried about.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23Ronnie should never have come back here.
0:02:23 > 0:02:24Oh, not you an' all, Jean?
0:02:26 > 0:02:28She ripped this family apart.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31And she's paid the price a hundred times over, poor cow.
0:02:32 > 0:02:33< Shirley Carter?
0:02:35 > 0:02:37- Taxi to Stansted. - I'll be right out.
0:02:38 > 0:02:41Right. This is it, then?
0:02:42 > 0:02:45- What are these? - Jimmy got me those.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47Awww.
0:02:51 > 0:02:54All right, Jean, you're going to crack a rib.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58I'm going to miss you, Shirley Carter.
0:03:02 > 0:03:03Aren't you going to say goodbye?
0:03:05 > 0:03:07- Nah, they're all right.- Bye.
0:03:14 > 0:03:19- What you got there? - Gran sent me some money.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21- Cindy's got a secret stash. - No, I haven't!
0:03:21 > 0:03:24- Go on, lend me 20 quid. - I'm broke.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27I mean, I will be for the next year now.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30Don't worry. This is the last of it now. See ya.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35Why's she walking around with a big, ugly lamp?
0:03:35 > 0:03:36She's moving in, you numpty.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38Yeah, so be prepared for some changes.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42- What kind of changes? - What is it they say?
0:03:43 > 0:03:45"Last in, first out"?
0:03:45 > 0:03:48- Come on, Luc.- If I were you, I'd be on my best behaviour.
0:03:53 > 0:03:54- Off somewhere nice? - Greece.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09I always fancied Spain myself. They speak better English.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22I need you to do a detour.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38Ronnie.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42Alfie was out of order.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44What are you doing here, Jack?
0:04:44 > 0:04:46I still care about you, don't I?
0:04:46 > 0:04:47SHE SCOFFS
0:04:47 > 0:04:50Really? By slamming a door in my face?
0:04:50 > 0:04:53You don't exactly make it easy on yourself, do you?
0:04:53 > 0:04:56Coming back here. Stirring things up.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59- I feel for you, Ron. I really do. - Everything all right?
0:05:02 > 0:05:05Just do yourself a favour. Just go, yeah?
0:05:12 > 0:05:15Listen, I was thinking of popping up the hospital to see Phil.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Fancy coming with?
0:05:17 > 0:05:20- I think I should go, Billy. - I know he'd really love to see you.
0:05:22 > 0:05:26Come on, Ron. It's times like this we need to stick together, don't we?
0:05:33 > 0:05:36- She's all right, I mean for a mad woman, you know. Decent.- Yeah.
0:05:37 > 0:05:41- What do you want?- You've got three vehicles coming in later.
0:05:41 > 0:05:42Same deal as before.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44- We said before... - I don't care what we said.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46How about that?
0:05:50 > 0:05:52DEXTER SIGHS
0:05:58 > 0:06:00- How do I look?- Great.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08What are you going to say to Dad? About the money, I mean.
0:06:08 > 0:06:09There's no point worrying him, is there?
0:06:11 > 0:06:14Your dad's innocent. Any jury's going to see that.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Just trust me.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20He'll be home with the family in a few weeks.
0:06:20 > 0:06:21I guarantee it.
0:06:34 > 0:06:35It's all go in there.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Denise is deciding who sleeps where.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42So where will I go?
0:06:43 > 0:06:46Well, you can keep bunking with me for the time being.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49But you did buy an open return, didn't you?
0:06:49 > 0:06:53Yeah, so Phil's put me in charge while he's recuperating. 'Lo!
0:06:53 > 0:06:55Right chip off the old block, she is.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57Well, go on then, say hello.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00- All right?- Hi.
0:07:00 > 0:07:04I said I'd run Ronnie up to the hospital. Where's Lex?
0:07:04 > 0:07:06With the childminder, I'm going to get her now.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08- All right, we'll come with you. - No. You can't!
0:07:08 > 0:07:09What do you mean, "can't"?
0:07:09 > 0:07:12They don't like strangers going to pick her up, you know that, Pops.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Ronnie's not a stranger. She's family.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18- I should get going.- No. - Yeah, see you later.
0:07:22 > 0:07:23Ronnie...
0:07:35 > 0:07:37Got any spare grapes going?
0:07:42 > 0:07:43How are you feeling?
0:07:44 > 0:07:48Like I've just gone through the windscreen of a motor.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51What are you doing here, Shirl?
0:07:51 > 0:07:52Carl White.
0:07:53 > 0:07:56- What about him?- He's trouble, Phil.
0:07:56 > 0:07:58- I can handle him.- And Ian.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01The pair of them - they're up to something.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04- Ian owed him money.- So?
0:08:04 > 0:08:05So Carl had him over a barrel.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08- So he's blackmailing him? - If you can call it that.
0:08:10 > 0:08:14You know he's trying to muscle in on the Arches, don't you?
0:08:15 > 0:08:18- I'll talk to him. - So that's it, is it?
0:08:20 > 0:08:22You're going to stand back and let him make a mug out of you?
0:08:22 > 0:08:26There's not a lot I can do when I'm stuck in here, is there?
0:08:26 > 0:08:28Then I'll sort it.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30Just be careful, Shirley, yeah?
0:08:30 > 0:08:33- I can handle myself. - What about your flight?
0:08:35 > 0:08:36I should still make it.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41There's nothing keeping me here, is there?
0:08:45 > 0:08:46HE SIGHS
0:08:49 > 0:08:51Shirl...
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Just take care of yourself, yeah?
0:09:03 > 0:09:05I need you to take me back to Albert Square.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07- Have you seen the time? - Look, just do it.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18- McKlunky's, then?- I've got a money off coupon somewhere.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20< Yoo-hoo. It's only me.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23KIM LAUGHS LOUDLY
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Am I missing something?
0:09:25 > 0:09:30Oh, Pops was just telling me a joke about a nun on a bicycle.
0:09:31 > 0:09:35Honestly, we have been having such a laugh, ain't we?
0:09:37 > 0:09:39I hope you don't mind me just dropping in like this.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41Come on, man, this is still your home, you know.
0:09:41 > 0:09:45It's just that we've had a change of plan for dinner tonight.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48Ian wants to do a sort of special meal over at the restaurant.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Kind of welcome me into the family.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52Pulling out all the stops, ain't he?
0:09:52 > 0:09:55A free meal at his own gaff. Nice.
0:09:55 > 0:09:59- Take it you won't be coming, then? - Who, me?- You'll be far too busy in here, won't you?
0:09:59 > 0:10:03- What is it, three courses? - Four...if you're lucky.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05You know, I've always favoured the fine dining myself.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08I mean, some people make do with McKlunky's...
0:10:08 > 0:10:11but I'm more of the foie gras kind of girl.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13- Foie gras? - Yeah. It's like spam, innit?
0:10:13 > 0:10:14Just not as chewy.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22Hey. I did mention it was a family dinner, didn't I?
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Jack. Jack, Jack, have you seen her?
0:10:39 > 0:10:40HE SIGHS
0:10:40 > 0:10:41Yeah. About an hour ago.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44- Where was she going?- She was going to the Tube.- OK, I've got to find her.
0:10:44 > 0:10:47- What, and risk another blow-up with Alfie?- I am not going to let her go
0:10:47 > 0:10:50- without saying goodbye. - It's too late, ain't it?
0:10:50 > 0:10:52Rox, I've been thinking - maybe, if you fancy it,
0:10:52 > 0:10:55we could go up west tonight, make a night of it, yeah?
0:10:55 > 0:10:58I just fancy an early night. I'm tired.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02You had no right making her choose.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04- Spare me the lecture, Jack. - She's her sister.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06From what I hear, you haven't been too welcoming yourself.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09- That's different, innit? - Why is it different?
0:11:09 > 0:11:10As far as I'm concerned,
0:11:10 > 0:11:13we're both carrying the scars of that woman, all right?
0:11:13 > 0:11:18Hey. All right, madam? What are you doing out here on your lonesome?
0:11:21 > 0:11:24Shirley will probably be at the airport by now.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27- Perusing the duty-free.- Ha-ha!
0:11:28 > 0:11:31Liking the old sunnies. Look at them!
0:11:31 > 0:11:33Shirley left them behind.
0:11:34 > 0:11:39So...this is me, then - back to where I started.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41A spinster with no friends.
0:11:41 > 0:11:45- What you talking about, "no friends"? You've got lots of friends, Jean.- Name one.
0:11:46 > 0:11:50Me. Ian...Mo?
0:11:50 > 0:11:52Mo's family. She doesn't count.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55What are you going on about, being a spinster?
0:11:55 > 0:11:56Ollie's gone.
0:11:57 > 0:12:00- Go find him, then. - It's not as simple as that.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02Course it is. Take a leaf out of Shirley's book.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05You know, life's all about taking chances.
0:12:05 > 0:12:08Well, it's probably too late.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11There's only one way to find out, isn't there?
0:12:17 > 0:12:19I see Shirley's gone.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22Oh, I'm missing the smell of fags and stale beer already.
0:12:22 > 0:12:23You two been mates long?
0:12:23 > 0:12:27I wouldn't exactly say mates. We've knocked about now and again.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31- Bit of a meddler, ain't she? - The woman's a rottweiler.
0:12:31 > 0:12:34She gets the bit between her teeth and that's it -
0:12:34 > 0:12:36- she ain't letting go.- Yeah?
0:12:36 > 0:12:38Good riddance, I say.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40I wouldn't get too comfy.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43I give her two weeks before she's back here making mischief.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47I mean, everybody knows she's only doing it to get Phil back.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49- Those two were never serious, were they?- Oh!
0:12:49 > 0:12:52They're like the Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor of Walford.
0:12:52 > 0:12:54- PATRICK:- They can't live with each other,
0:12:54 > 0:12:56they can't live without each other.
0:12:59 > 0:13:00Just wait here.
0:13:02 > 0:13:05There's someone here to see you.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09I was hoping that you might have a forwarding address for Ollie?
0:13:09 > 0:13:12I think it's somewhere in Brighton. I can't remember.
0:13:12 > 0:13:18Oh, really? Well, I was only asking on the off-chance.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21He left some cherry belle seeds at mine...
0:13:21 > 0:13:28Radishes. I just wanted to return them. That's all. Brighton, eh?
0:13:28 > 0:13:30Makes a nice change from London.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32He hasn't gone yet, you know.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35There's his retirement party at the Rose and Crown tomorrow.
0:13:35 > 0:13:36You should go and see him.
0:13:36 > 0:13:39- Oh, I couldn't possibly... - Maybe Carl can go with you.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42He'd like nothing more than to be in a room full of coppers.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44- Nah, you're all right. - I don't know him that well
0:13:44 > 0:13:48but one thing I do know is that he is very, very fond of you.
0:13:48 > 0:13:51Hmm. (Thanks.)
0:14:10 > 0:14:12- You all right? - Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.
0:14:15 > 0:14:16Don't I even get a kiss?
0:14:24 > 0:14:25Don't get too carried away, will you?
0:14:32 > 0:14:35So where's your missus gone, then?
0:14:35 > 0:14:37She's my ex-missus.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39I can't believe you let somebody like that just walk out.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41Joey. Why don't you go home, eh?
0:14:41 > 0:14:42Still got another hour yet.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44Yeah, well, anything for a bit of peace, eh?
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Go on.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50- I'll see you a bit later on, then. - Yeah, see you later.
0:14:56 > 0:14:58HE SIGHS
0:15:05 > 0:15:08I'll just go, shall I? I'm not going to sit around and be ignored.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11- Sit down, Kirsty, please. - Oh, finally, he speaks.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22Listen, babe, there's something I've got to tell you.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25- Go on.- It's just not fair of me, you know. To keep you stringing along.
0:15:25 > 0:15:26What are you talking about?
0:15:28 > 0:15:31It's just...Ian, you know, he was right. I did cut the brakes.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36- I don't believe you.- Believe what you want, that's the truth.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42- So Ian saw you cut the brakes?- Yes.
0:15:44 > 0:15:46Why are you just telling me this now?
0:15:48 > 0:15:50Cos I don't want to keep looking in your face
0:15:50 > 0:15:53and lying to you, Kirsty, all right? That's why.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55It's this place. It's got to you.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58You need to see a doctor. You're not thinking straight.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01It ain't this place. All I'm doing, Kirsty, is telling you the truth.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03No, you're not.
0:16:03 > 0:16:04HE SIGHS
0:16:10 > 0:16:12- So, why now? - Babe, please. I just told you.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14Cos I don't want to keep lying to you.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19It's still your word against his. If you just stick to your original story,
0:16:19 > 0:16:21there's a chance you're still going to get off.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23Yeah, and that's exactly what I intend to do.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26If you're intending to plead not guilty, what is the problem?
0:16:30 > 0:16:35Just me and you, us... it's not working, all right?
0:16:37 > 0:16:39What's this got to do with us, eh?
0:16:39 > 0:16:42- I'm talking to you, Max! - Cheers. I'm done.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45- Max, I'm talking to you! - Kirsty, we're over. All right?
0:16:55 > 0:17:00Coo-ee! Look at us, eh? One big family coming together.
0:17:02 > 0:17:06- Kill me now.- Think of us as the Middletons. I'm Pippa.
0:17:06 > 0:17:07LAUGHTER
0:17:07 > 0:17:09We're just pleased you could all make it.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11Please, take a seat and I'll get us some drinks.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14Yeah, man, thanks for inviting us.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17From now on, your home is our home. Yeah?
0:17:17 > 0:17:19Isn't that supposed to be the other way round?
0:17:19 > 0:17:20Not in Kim's case.
0:17:20 > 0:17:24- So where's little Robbie?- It's Bobby. And he's at a friend's house.
0:17:24 > 0:17:28Well, on behalf of the family, I'd like to welcome you all.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31- That is very kind of you. - Ain't she adorable?
0:17:31 > 0:17:34- Isn't she just? - Right, come on. I'm starving.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36Hey. Steady, you, no funny business.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38We're practically brother and sister.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40Ian, thank you so much for doing all of this.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43No, thank you for agreeing to move in with me.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45Eh, any chance of some grub down this end?
0:17:45 > 0:17:47That's what I like to hear. A woman who likes her food.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50I thought we'd celebrate the coming together of two families,
0:17:50 > 0:17:53so I thought we'd make the effort and try and embrace your culture.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Culture?
0:17:55 > 0:18:00So I have done, especially, rice and peas...
0:18:00 > 0:18:01curried goat.
0:18:03 > 0:18:04Is he taking the...
0:18:04 > 0:18:07That's a really nice gesture, Ian. Thank you so much.
0:18:07 > 0:18:11- Curried goat? - Baby steps, darlin'. Baby steps.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13There you go, Patrick. Just for you.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16Yeah, man. I could get used to this, you know.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19Not interrupting anything, am I?
0:18:19 > 0:18:23- Now, there's a sight for sore eyes. - What are you doing back here?
0:18:23 > 0:18:25I need to talk to Ian.
0:18:25 > 0:18:29- What about?- It's all right, love. It'll just take a minute.
0:18:29 > 0:18:30Peter, could you serve for me?
0:18:37 > 0:18:40- How much did you owe him?- Owe who?
0:18:43 > 0:18:44- Who told you?- It doesn't matter.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48That's in the past, Shirl. That debt's been paid off.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50Paid off? How?
0:18:50 > 0:18:54Come on, Ian. The restaurant's doing good, but it ain't doing that good.
0:18:55 > 0:18:59It's funny, innit? That you owe Carl money, and yet Max is banged up.
0:18:59 > 0:19:03Ian? Your food's getting cold.
0:19:03 > 0:19:05Yeah, I'll just be a minute, love.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12What about Phil? He's just collateral damage, is that it?
0:19:13 > 0:19:16Carl wanted to stitch Max up and you lied for him.
0:19:16 > 0:19:18- Shirley, will you leave it?- I can't!
0:19:18 > 0:19:21- Look, it's not your problem. - But it is now.- Shirley, please...
0:19:24 > 0:19:26- I thought you'd gone! - I am trying, believe me.
0:19:26 > 0:19:28You've left Jimmy's sunglasses at the Vic.
0:19:28 > 0:19:29I've kept them in a special place for you.
0:19:29 > 0:19:34- So promise me you'll come and pick them up before you go?- As soon as I've sorted this mess out.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36Oi! The meter's still running here!
0:19:41 > 0:19:42HE GROANS
0:19:51 > 0:19:52Shouldn't you be resting?
0:20:02 > 0:20:03Carl?
0:20:36 > 0:20:37So, how have you been?
0:20:39 > 0:20:41I've had better weeks. What about you?
0:20:43 > 0:20:47I can't imagine them getting the bunting out, I suppose.
0:20:47 > 0:20:48I should never have come back here.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50Where else were you going to go, eh?
0:20:52 > 0:20:54I, er...
0:20:54 > 0:20:56I suppose I could use another pair of hands
0:20:56 > 0:20:58- at the club if you've got the time. - You mean my club?
0:21:01 > 0:21:02Why? What's happened?
0:21:04 > 0:21:06- Just forget it.- Phil...
0:21:09 > 0:21:11He's called Carl White.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15- What - is he trouble?- And some. Yeah.
0:21:15 > 0:21:16Why don't you sort it out?
0:21:16 > 0:21:18I will do, as soon as I get out of here.
0:21:18 > 0:21:21But Shirley reckons he's trying to muscle in on the businesses.
0:21:21 > 0:21:23It's just for a couple of weeks, that's all.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27- Phil, I can't.- Why not?
0:21:29 > 0:21:33I just... I can't face everyone around here.
0:21:33 > 0:21:35They're never going to forget what happened.
0:21:35 > 0:21:37Well, you know what I think?
0:21:37 > 0:21:39You've done your time. So stop apologising.
0:21:49 > 0:21:53Mate, you haven't seen a woman, have you? Late forties.
0:21:53 > 0:21:55Can you be a bit more specific?
0:21:55 > 0:21:58Looks a bit like that Zelda from Terrahawks.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03- Any of you seen Carl? - What are you still doing here?
0:22:03 > 0:22:07If you see him, you tell him I'm looking for him, all right?
0:22:07 > 0:22:08- Shirl...- Leave it, yeah?
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Leave what?
0:22:12 > 0:22:13Will someone tell me what's going on?
0:22:19 > 0:22:21Mmm!
0:22:21 > 0:22:23Seeing as we're almost sisters...
0:22:23 > 0:22:26I think me and you should go out on the pull one night.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29- I'm sorry, how old are you? - How old do I look?
0:22:29 > 0:22:31- About 40. - DENISE SNORTS
0:22:31 > 0:22:34- 44?- I think you two need to go to the opticians.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36I'd say more like 35.
0:22:36 > 0:22:40Give or take a few years. Thank you, Cindy.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43I think me and you are going to get on just fine.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46OK. I think, er, this calls for a toast, don't you?
0:22:48 > 0:22:49Ian?
0:22:52 > 0:22:54- What was that?- A toast?
0:22:56 > 0:22:58- I just need to pop out again. - Pop out where?
0:22:58 > 0:23:01- I'll only be a couple of minutes.- Oh!
0:23:01 > 0:23:04- Is everything all right? - Yeah. You know what Ian's like.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06He's always on the go, ain't he?
0:23:07 > 0:23:11Lucy, you know, I think you should go easy on this one, you know.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13- Of course.- For a few weeks.
0:23:13 > 0:23:17And then we're really going to start giving her a hard time.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19I have got something for you, actually.
0:23:20 > 0:23:22A little housewarming present.
0:23:23 > 0:23:26- It didn't cost much, but... - Darling, you didn't have to do that.
0:23:26 > 0:23:27I wanted to.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29DENISE GASPS
0:23:29 > 0:23:33- That looks expensive. - I thought you were broke?
0:23:33 > 0:23:36It is BEAUTIFUL, thank you.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39- So where did you get the money from, Cindy?- Yeah, Cindy?
0:23:42 > 0:23:45Liam lent me the money, didn't he? Can you just stop going on about it?
0:23:45 > 0:23:47Hey, how about that toast?
0:23:48 > 0:23:51- To the Beale-Foxes. - To the Foxy Beales.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53To a new chapter.
0:23:54 > 0:23:56ALL: Cheers.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00- It's Shirley. She knows. - She's got no proof.
0:24:00 > 0:24:03Well, that's not going to stop her! What if she goes to the police
0:24:03 > 0:24:05and tells them I provided a false statement?
0:24:05 > 0:24:08- Don't get ahead of yourself. - You don't know what she's like.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10- She's halfway to Greece by now. - No, she's not. She's out there.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13She's trying to piece it all together.
0:24:14 > 0:24:16Then I'm going to sort her.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27- Oh, how did it go?- Fine.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30- And Dad?- Yeah. Better than ever.
0:24:40 > 0:24:42We're closed.
0:24:42 > 0:24:43I'm not here for a car.
0:24:45 > 0:24:46I thought you'd gone.
0:24:46 > 0:24:49That would have made it easier for you, wouldn't it? Hmm?
0:24:49 > 0:24:51If there's one thing you were always good at,
0:24:51 > 0:24:53it was burying your head in the sand.
0:24:53 > 0:24:57Close your eyes long enough and the problem just disappears.
0:24:57 > 0:24:58Well, not this problem.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02Just for the record, Jack, I don't need your pity.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07In fact, I don't need anything from you.
0:25:26 > 0:25:27Hey.
0:25:28 > 0:25:32Rox, remember you've got me, Amy and Tommy.
0:25:33 > 0:25:35And we ain't going anywhere.
0:25:43 > 0:25:46- Excuse me, are you free? - I am now.
0:26:20 > 0:26:21Stop the car!
0:26:24 > 0:26:26What is it with the women round here?
0:26:26 > 0:26:28Do you want this cab or not?
0:26:29 > 0:26:30Not today.
0:26:52 > 0:26:54Expecting someone else?
0:26:54 > 0:26:57I sent the boys packing, along with your dodgy motors.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00I thought you and I have got a few things that we need to discuss.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04So...where shall we start?
0:27:05 > 0:27:10How you tried to kill Phil? Or the fact that you set up Max Branning?
0:27:11 > 0:27:13I warned you, didn't I, Shirley?
0:27:13 > 0:27:18Huh? About messing with my business. And what do you go and do?
0:27:19 > 0:27:20Go and shoot your mouth off.
0:27:22 > 0:27:26You disappointed me. I thought you were smarter than that.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28- It'll just take one phone call.- Nah.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31It ain't going to come to that.
0:27:31 > 0:27:32You know, when I was inside,
0:27:32 > 0:27:34they taught us how to work through our problems.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37You know, write to someone, tell someone, work it through.
0:27:39 > 0:27:42I'm going to show you how I deal with my problems.
0:27:49 > 0:27:52# ..Just trust in the good times
0:27:52 > 0:27:54# No matter how long it takes
0:27:54 > 0:27:57# How many heartaches
0:27:57 > 0:27:58# Must I stand
0:27:58 > 0:28:01# Before I find the love
0:28:01 > 0:28:04# To let me live again?
0:28:04 > 0:28:06# Right now the only thing
0:28:06 > 0:28:09# That keeps me hanging on
0:28:09 > 0:28:10# Are these precious... #
0:28:10 > 0:28:12SONG CONTINUES ON RADIO
0:28:21 > 0:28:24Right, come on. Do not even think about sitting there all day.
0:28:24 > 0:28:26I've made a list of people that we need to ring.
0:28:26 > 0:28:28I've got newspapers, journalists...
0:28:28 > 0:28:32Do you really think anyone's going to want to know?
0:28:32 > 0:28:34Dad has gone to prison and he's done nothing wrong.
0:28:34 > 0:28:38People want to know and it's up to us to tell them.
0:28:38 > 0:28:40How old are you, Abi? I mean, all this, it's kids' stuff.
0:28:40 > 0:28:43- Pie in the sky.- Excuse me for actually doing something practical
0:28:43 > 0:28:46to try and help my dad, which is more than you two are doing.
0:28:47 > 0:28:48You're right.
0:28:50 > 0:28:54I'm sorry, I just think all this is getting on top of me.
0:28:56 > 0:28:57Oi.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01You've been in a foul mood since you got back from seeing Dad yesterday.
0:29:01 > 0:29:03Has something happened?
0:29:03 > 0:29:06Yeah, well, I'm a mardy cow. It's my personality, get used to it.
0:29:06 > 0:29:09OK. Right, maybe I'll go and see Dad, then.
0:29:09 > 0:29:11He can tell me what's going on.
0:29:17 > 0:29:19Not in front of Abi.
0:29:21 > 0:29:24I ain't being funny, but your underwear drawer
0:29:24 > 0:29:27- could do with a bit of reorganising. - Don't give me nightmares.
0:29:27 > 0:29:29PHIL GROANS
0:29:29 > 0:29:30Phil?
0:29:31 > 0:29:32It's all right, it's nothing.
0:29:32 > 0:29:35You went through a windscreen, all right? It ain't nothing.
0:29:35 > 0:29:37You do realise you're going to need a bit of help?
0:29:37 > 0:29:40- Just for a little bit, anyway. - Yeah, I was...
0:29:40 > 0:29:44- I was going to talk to you about that, as it goes.- Right, yeah.
0:29:44 > 0:29:47I've asked Ronnie to stick around for a couple of weeks.
0:29:47 > 0:29:50Take care of the businesses, just till I'm back on my feet.
0:29:50 > 0:29:53- What?! Are you joking?- No, it's all right.- It ain't all right!
0:29:53 > 0:29:56You seriously telling me you're going to put your faith
0:29:56 > 0:29:58in some nutcase who goes nicking other people's kids over Pops?
0:29:58 > 0:30:02- Ronnie is family, and I trust her. - What, and you don't trust him?- Lola!
0:30:02 > 0:30:03Billy's got enough on his plate, ain't he?
0:30:03 > 0:30:05Helping you take care of Lexi.
0:30:05 > 0:30:08That's more important than the club or the Arches or anything else
0:30:08 > 0:30:11- as far as I'm concerned.- Oh, yeah sure, whatever, Phil... No, Pops!
0:30:26 > 0:30:30Do you feel like telling me what you're doing in Phil's club?
0:30:30 > 0:30:32I saw some old delivery guy struggling with that.
0:30:32 > 0:30:34I thought I'd be a good Samaritan.
0:30:34 > 0:30:36A good Samaritan?
0:30:37 > 0:30:40Oh, let me guess - you must be Carl?
0:30:41 > 0:30:44I've got a reputation already.
0:30:44 > 0:30:45And you are?
0:30:45 > 0:30:47Oh, I'm Ronnie. I'm Phil's cousin.
0:30:49 > 0:30:51You're a lucky man, aren't you, Carl?
0:30:51 > 0:30:54Walking away from that crash with only a few scratches.
0:30:54 > 0:30:55Yeah, I got lucky.
0:30:55 > 0:30:58I always get lucky.
0:30:58 > 0:31:00When I went down for five and a half years,
0:31:00 > 0:31:02even my mum said it should have been ten.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04I can see the family resemblance.
0:31:05 > 0:31:08Phil can be just as stony-faced when he wants to be.
0:31:08 > 0:31:10I think it's time you were leaving, don't you?
0:31:10 > 0:31:12I bet the girls inside loved you when they saw you, eh?
0:31:12 > 0:31:14Considering what you did.
0:31:16 > 0:31:20Yeah, see, I'm not the only one with a reputation, Ronnie.
0:31:20 > 0:31:23You can tell Phil that he's got nothing to worry about
0:31:23 > 0:31:26while he's in hospital, recovering.
0:31:26 > 0:31:28I can look after all his operations
0:31:28 > 0:31:30while he's out of commission.
0:31:40 > 0:31:41SHE SIGHS
0:31:46 > 0:31:49Am I glad to see you! Here.
0:31:49 > 0:31:53- What are you doing?- I'm not working through my lunch break.
0:31:53 > 0:31:54Oh, no, come on, Kat!
0:31:57 > 0:32:00All right? What's this, then?
0:32:00 > 0:32:03It's for my dad's campaign. I found this charity
0:32:03 > 0:32:05that specialises in, like, miscarriages of justice.
0:32:05 > 0:32:07Abi? You know where I've just been?
0:32:07 > 0:32:10I've just been to hospital to visit Lexi's granddad.
0:32:10 > 0:32:14What happened to Phil had nothing to do with my dad. He's innocent.
0:32:14 > 0:32:16Babe, you could be a bit more sensitive.
0:32:16 > 0:32:20- Whose side are you on?- I ain't on any side - trying not to be, anyway.
0:32:20 > 0:32:23- Yeah, well, you could try a bit harder.- All right, that's enough.
0:32:23 > 0:32:25Come on, Abi, let's go.
0:32:34 > 0:32:38MUSIC: "Thriller" by Michael Jackson
0:32:38 > 0:32:42< Hello? Kim? Kim!
0:32:47 > 0:32:50THEY SCREAM
0:32:50 > 0:32:53What are you doing?! Are you trying to give me a heart attack?
0:32:53 > 0:32:55- I nearly dropped my lunch! - Sorry. Is Shirley here?
0:32:55 > 0:32:58No. She's long gone.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01And you know, she didn't pay her bill before she left, cheeky mare.
0:33:01 > 0:33:04She couldn't have done, because she hasn't collected these yet.
0:33:05 > 0:33:09They're from little Jimmy. She wouldn't have gone without them.
0:33:09 > 0:33:12Listen, I went up to her room - the bed has been stripped,
0:33:12 > 0:33:15all her stuff has gone. Trust me, she ain't coming back.
0:33:15 > 0:33:17Oh, my heart!
0:33:30 > 0:33:31Jay?
0:33:31 > 0:33:32Ronnie, I thought you'd gone?
0:33:32 > 0:33:35Phil wants the books for the Vic and the Arches
0:33:35 > 0:33:38so his accountant can do the VAT. Shall I come by and get them later?
0:33:38 > 0:33:39I'll drop them off later.
0:33:39 > 0:33:42I think the best thing you can do is leave me to get on with things.
0:33:44 > 0:33:47Phil got you running round like a right little lapdog already, has he?
0:33:47 > 0:33:49You want to watch yourself, girly.
0:33:50 > 0:33:54I hoped I'd seen the last of you. Fervently prayed, actually.
0:33:54 > 0:33:57Phil asked me to keep an eye on things for him.
0:33:57 > 0:34:01How heart-warming. The injured lion extends his sore paw to the convict.
0:34:01 > 0:34:03What a ghastly world we live in.
0:34:05 > 0:34:07It's good to have you back.
0:34:14 > 0:34:18I know I'm being silly. Shirley said goodbye to everyone.
0:34:18 > 0:34:21I just didn't think she'd go without these.
0:34:23 > 0:34:27I wasn't ready to actually think of her as gone yet.
0:34:29 > 0:34:31Look, I know you're going to miss her. But you've still got me.
0:34:33 > 0:34:35- Why don't we go for a drink later? - Oh, yeah.
0:34:35 > 0:34:38Oh, no - Ollie's got a retirement do this evening.
0:34:38 > 0:34:40I'm going to bob along, sort of a last-ditch attempt kind of thing.
0:34:40 > 0:34:44- I thought that was over with? - Oh, yeah, it was, it is, but...
0:34:44 > 0:34:46No buts, Jean.
0:34:46 > 0:34:48That bloke is not good enough for you.
0:34:48 > 0:34:52After the way he reacted when he found out about your illness?
0:34:52 > 0:34:55Look, if you go back there, he'll just do it to you again.
0:34:55 > 0:34:56Is that what you want?
0:34:58 > 0:35:00I'll get Alice to look after Tommy
0:35:00 > 0:35:03and we can have a real good catch-up, yeah?
0:35:03 > 0:35:04And you just forget about him.
0:35:14 > 0:35:17When Kirsty went to see Dad yesterday...
0:35:19 > 0:35:20..he said he was guilty.
0:35:23 > 0:35:24He confessed to her.
0:35:28 > 0:35:31What, and you believe him?
0:35:31 > 0:35:32I don't know.
0:35:33 > 0:35:35I don't know what to think.
0:35:37 > 0:35:40All I know is that sometimes things do get out of control, don't they?
0:35:40 > 0:35:42- Things just happen... - Right, right, come on,
0:35:42 > 0:35:45we will go and visit him and then you can look him in the eye
0:35:45 > 0:35:48and you will see that there is no way that he could have done this.
0:35:59 > 0:36:01All right?
0:36:01 > 0:36:04Yeah, what, you interested in buying a motor, are you?
0:36:04 > 0:36:06I'm checking in on your new career.
0:36:06 > 0:36:09It was always inevitable, you becoming a used car salesman.
0:36:09 > 0:36:12You've got all the attributes - the unctuous charm, the nylon suits...
0:36:12 > 0:36:14What is it, Michael? Because, you know, I'm busy at the minute.
0:36:14 > 0:36:17I'm just checking in on my oldest...
0:36:17 > 0:36:18oldest friend.
0:36:18 > 0:36:20- How are you doing?- Fine.
0:36:20 > 0:36:23- Well, apart from Max being banged up.- Yeah, I heard.
0:36:25 > 0:36:28- Nothing else?- If you're talking about Ronnie, don't.
0:36:28 > 0:36:31All right? It's over between me and her. Has been for ages.
0:36:31 > 0:36:36- Easy to say.- Easy to do. Cos she's not in Walford, is she?
0:36:36 > 0:36:39If she was, I still wouldn't have anything to do with her.
0:36:40 > 0:36:42Very conclusive.
0:36:43 > 0:36:44Well done, you.
0:36:50 > 0:36:54Not only is he a talented mechanic, but he cleans up after himself.
0:36:54 > 0:36:56- Phil's a lucky man. - What do you want, Carl?
0:36:56 > 0:36:58You ain't got no business with me or the Arches any more.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00Yeah, not since Shirley stuck her oar in.
0:37:00 > 0:37:02But you know what -
0:37:02 > 0:37:04Shirley's gone now.
0:37:04 > 0:37:06And it's about time you started doing what you're told.
0:37:06 > 0:37:10I've got a friend dropping off a vehicle. You know the drill.
0:37:15 > 0:37:16You missed a bit.
0:37:31 > 0:37:33What are you both doing here?
0:37:33 > 0:37:36Kirsty told me what you said to her yesterday.
0:37:36 > 0:37:38Yeah, so will you tell her? Tell her how stupid this is.
0:37:38 > 0:37:39Abs, please.
0:37:43 > 0:37:45Look, please tell her this isn't true. Please.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47I don't understand what you're doing here.
0:37:47 > 0:37:51- I didn't want you both to come here. Do you understand me?- OK.
0:37:51 > 0:37:55- Come on, then, Abs, let's go. - No. No. He has to say it.
0:37:55 > 0:37:58- I will not believe it until you say it.- Abi, don't do this.- Say it!
0:38:09 > 0:38:10I did it, Abs.
0:38:13 > 0:38:15Everything they're saying I did. It's all true.
0:38:23 > 0:38:26- Go after her, Lauren. Please.- Dad... - Just go after her, will you?
0:38:27 > 0:38:29- You're lying... - Can you just get out of here?
0:38:41 > 0:38:43I dunno what you're on about.
0:38:43 > 0:38:46Why are you lying to my face, Jay? I know.
0:38:46 > 0:38:49Look, the minute Carl's mate drops that car off,
0:38:49 > 0:38:50I want you to phone me.
0:38:50 > 0:38:53Do you understand?
0:38:53 > 0:38:55He is the main reason that Phil wants me here.
0:38:55 > 0:38:57He knows he's trying to take over everything.
0:38:57 > 0:39:01I didn't realise he wanted this place as well. What's he up to?
0:39:02 > 0:39:04The cars come in and he wants them fixing up.
0:39:04 > 0:39:07Don't know where he gets them from, so don't ask me.
0:39:07 > 0:39:09He don't really like doing paperwork.
0:39:09 > 0:39:12Right. So why don't you let me handle Carl from now on?
0:39:12 > 0:39:14Are you mad? Carl ain't the type of person to be handled.
0:39:14 > 0:39:18- And certainly not by you. - Why don't you let me decide that?
0:39:18 > 0:39:20And remember which side you're on.
0:39:32 > 0:39:33Ronnie!
0:39:38 > 0:39:40Jean, come on, sweetheart, you got to get a move on
0:39:40 > 0:39:44if you want to get to the ball before you turn into a pumpkin, eh?
0:39:44 > 0:39:48I've decided against going to the party. It was a silly idea.
0:39:48 > 0:39:52Oh, you think believing in love is silly, do you?
0:39:52 > 0:39:55No. Just that...
0:39:55 > 0:39:59Kat's right - if I go back for more, I'll only end up getting hurt again.
0:39:59 > 0:40:01Kat's the one putting you off, is she?
0:40:01 > 0:40:04You're looking at a bloke here who's made a fool of himself over love
0:40:04 > 0:40:06more times than I care to remember.
0:40:06 > 0:40:09Trust me, sweetheart, if you want to be with this bloke, OK...
0:40:09 > 0:40:11then you've got to take a risk.
0:40:11 > 0:40:12On Friday the 13th?
0:40:12 > 0:40:15You don't think that's tempting fate a bit too much?
0:40:15 > 0:40:16This is what I'm prepared to do -
0:40:16 > 0:40:18I will walk under every ladder in Walford,
0:40:18 > 0:40:19kiss every black cat there is,
0:40:19 > 0:40:22just so we get rid of every ounce of bad luck. Deal?
0:40:24 > 0:40:26I'll go for it. I'm really going to go for it!
0:40:26 > 0:40:30- Yeah, yeah, yeah? Deal!- Deal!
0:40:30 > 0:40:31- Don't forget your tea.- Oh, yeah.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36Here, did you know that your friend Shirley
0:40:36 > 0:40:38left the country without paying her rent?
0:40:38 > 0:40:42Shirley Carter? Citizen of the year? My, my, you do surprise me.
0:40:42 > 0:40:45She don't pay her debts, yet Jean reckons she wouldn't leave
0:40:45 > 0:40:48- without her grandson's sunglasses. - You think something might be wrong?
0:40:48 > 0:40:51No, of course not. Although I did think Shirl might have knocked
0:40:51 > 0:40:54on the door last night to say goodbye before she went.
0:40:57 > 0:40:58Oh, there you are.
0:41:00 > 0:41:03You know that car your mate dropped off earlier to the Arches?
0:41:04 > 0:41:06It's not there any more.
0:41:06 > 0:41:09A garage standing forlorn without a car.
0:41:10 > 0:41:14- A bit like a mother without a baby, ain't it?- It's in a lock-up.
0:41:14 > 0:41:18If you ever use the Arches again for your own personal interest,
0:41:18 > 0:41:21I'll make sure the police find that lock-up.
0:41:21 > 0:41:23There won't be any traces back to me or Phil.
0:41:23 > 0:41:25But I can't guarantee the same for you.
0:41:25 > 0:41:27That's the good thing about the East End -
0:41:27 > 0:41:29places like the Arches are ten-a-penny.
0:41:29 > 0:41:32And here was me thinking today was going to be boring.
0:41:32 > 0:41:34You've just given me something to do.
0:41:34 > 0:41:36Thanks, Ronnie.
0:41:40 > 0:41:42SHE SIGHS
0:41:44 > 0:41:46Do you know what, Abi? I think he's lying.
0:41:46 > 0:41:49You were right - Dad could not do something like that.
0:41:50 > 0:41:51Now who's delusional?
0:41:53 > 0:41:55Face it, Dad is guilty
0:41:55 > 0:41:58and he's going to prison for a really long time.
0:41:59 > 0:42:01I know how you're feeling.
0:42:02 > 0:42:04But we've got each other, haven't we?
0:42:06 > 0:42:07I know that I ain't been much of a sister,
0:42:07 > 0:42:10but things are going to be different now.
0:42:10 > 0:42:14Why? Because Lauren's stopped drinking? What, Lauren's changed?
0:42:14 > 0:42:17- Lauren, Lauren, Lauren.- Well, I'm trying to make it up to you, Abi!
0:42:25 > 0:42:28You know what, I don't even want to be part of this family any more.
0:42:35 > 0:42:37FOOTSTEPS APPROACH
0:42:37 > 0:42:39Sorry, we're not open.
0:42:41 > 0:42:42Ronnie Mitchell.
0:42:44 > 0:42:48- I thought it was you.- So I don't have to introduce myself, then?
0:42:48 > 0:42:52- I was a Mitchell once. But then you knew that.- Yeah. I did.
0:42:52 > 0:42:55I bet Peggy's told you a few stories about me over the years.
0:42:55 > 0:42:57Probably feels like you know me by now.
0:42:58 > 0:43:01It certainly feels like I know you.
0:43:01 > 0:43:03Because of Jack?
0:43:03 > 0:43:05I'm the idiot he was supposed to marry.
0:43:05 > 0:43:07The one he chucked at the altar cos he couldn't get over you.
0:43:07 > 0:43:11I'm sorry about that. But that was Jack's choice, not mine.
0:43:11 > 0:43:14Poor Ronnie. Always the injured party.
0:43:14 > 0:43:16Yeah, you're right, I have heard about you, Sharon.
0:43:16 > 0:43:19I heard you've wrecked a few marriages in your time as well,
0:43:19 > 0:43:22so don't expect me to get out the violins for you any time soon.
0:43:22 > 0:43:24- I think you'd better leave. - I can't do that.
0:43:24 > 0:43:27You see, Phil's asked me to look after the place while he's laid up.
0:43:27 > 0:43:30So I guess that means you and me are going to be working together.
0:43:33 > 0:43:37Sorry, ladies, didn't mean to interrupt.
0:43:37 > 0:43:38Well, if you'll excuse me,
0:43:38 > 0:43:41I'd rather clear out the storeroom than chat here with you two.
0:43:51 > 0:43:52In the office.
0:44:06 > 0:44:07I thought you were going.
0:44:07 > 0:44:10Yeah, I am. This is just temporary.
0:44:10 > 0:44:13Look, I'm sorry about yesterday. All right?
0:44:13 > 0:44:16I wasn't offering pity, I just wanted to check you were all right.
0:44:16 > 0:44:18Why?
0:44:18 > 0:44:21You couldn't care less about me. At least Michael was honest in saying
0:44:21 > 0:44:23that he hoped he'd never see me again.
0:44:23 > 0:44:26Come on, you're really going to compare me to Michael?
0:44:27 > 0:44:31Ronnie, we were married, all right? We had a son.
0:44:34 > 0:44:38Do you know what, you need to stay away from me.
0:44:38 > 0:44:39I think that's best for everyone.
0:44:41 > 0:44:45- Yeah. I guess you're right. - So stay away from me until I'm gone.
0:44:46 > 0:44:48Sounds like a plan.
0:44:48 > 0:44:51We shouldn't even look in each other's direction.
0:44:53 > 0:44:55Yeah, you're right.
0:44:55 > 0:44:56Yeah, I am.
0:45:01 > 0:45:03Goodbye, Ronnie.
0:45:13 > 0:45:15SHE SIGHS
0:45:15 > 0:45:17PHONE RINGS
0:45:19 > 0:45:20Hello?
0:45:21 > 0:45:24No, Phil. I haven't been to the Vic yet.
0:45:25 > 0:45:28No, don't ask Billy to do it, OK? I will do it.
0:45:29 > 0:45:31Yeah, I'm heading there right now.
0:45:43 > 0:45:45What have you done to Shirley?
0:45:45 > 0:45:48That's a bit confrontational. How do you know I've done anything to her?
0:45:48 > 0:45:50Please tell me that she's all right.
0:45:50 > 0:45:53Let's just say our little problem's sorted, shall we?
0:45:53 > 0:45:55You didn't.
0:46:13 > 0:46:15What happened?
0:46:16 > 0:46:17We saw Dad.
0:46:44 > 0:46:46Alfie, have you seen Jean?
0:46:46 > 0:46:49I'm supposed to be meeting her for a drink.
0:46:49 > 0:46:51No. No, no, I haven't. Sorry.
0:46:57 > 0:47:00- What's that for?- Just a wish that true love finds its way.
0:47:03 > 0:47:04Ronnie?
0:47:05 > 0:47:06I thought you'd gone.
0:47:06 > 0:47:08I've got to sort out a few things first.
0:47:10 > 0:47:11Phil wants to check the books,
0:47:11 > 0:47:13so he's asked me to come in and get them for him.
0:47:13 > 0:47:16I've already flung you out once this week. Have I got to do it again?
0:47:16 > 0:47:18Turn around and start walking.
0:47:18 > 0:47:20Bring the books to Phil's as soon as you can.
0:47:23 > 0:47:25You know where I am if you need me.
0:47:30 > 0:47:33You knew, didn't you? When you came sniffing round the car lot.
0:47:33 > 0:47:35- Knew what?- About Ronnie.
0:47:37 > 0:47:40- You knew she was back, you were just checking to see if I did.- Rumbled.
0:47:42 > 0:47:46You've got the cheek to call me your oldest, bestest mate?
0:47:46 > 0:47:49I am your oldest, bestest mate. I was doing you a favour.
0:47:49 > 0:47:51- Oh, really?- Don't be so ungrateful.
0:47:51 > 0:47:53I was protecting you from the woman who ruined your life.
0:47:53 > 0:47:56You should have married - what's her name? - Sharon.
0:47:57 > 0:47:59Or the other one. The other sister.
0:47:59 > 0:48:02Not Ronnie, Jack. Not you.
0:48:04 > 0:48:06I'm one of them, Jack. I'm one of the difficult ones.
0:48:06 > 0:48:11I know. You choose one of us, and you'll never be happy.
0:48:11 > 0:48:14- I just need to leave her behind, that's all.- Precisely. That's right.
0:48:14 > 0:48:15Then why can't I?
0:48:17 > 0:48:19MUSIC: "Hotel California" by The Eagles
0:48:31 > 0:48:32- Lucky git.- Sorry?
0:48:32 > 0:48:3530 years, we've worked together.
0:48:35 > 0:48:38Now he's getting out and I've still got to go to work on Monday morning.
0:48:38 > 0:48:41Life just ain't fair sometimes, is it? Another drink?
0:48:52 > 0:48:54Where do you think you're going?
0:48:56 > 0:48:58Just tell Phil I'm sorry.
0:48:59 > 0:49:02He trusted you,
0:49:02 > 0:49:05he put his faith in you, and this is how you're going to thank him?
0:49:05 > 0:49:07I can't do this!
0:49:07 > 0:49:09I can't be here, Billy, it's too much for me!
0:49:09 > 0:49:13I'd have given my right arm if he'd asked me to do all of that.
0:49:13 > 0:49:15But he didn't.
0:49:15 > 0:49:16He chose you.
0:49:16 > 0:49:19And now you're just going to throw it back in his face?
0:49:19 > 0:49:21I'm never going to be allowed to forget what I did!
0:49:21 > 0:49:24Do you think you're the only person that's ever done something
0:49:24 > 0:49:26- that they're ashamed of? - No, no, of course not...
0:49:26 > 0:49:30There's been plenty of times when I've wanted to run away and hide.
0:49:30 > 0:49:33But I haven't. Because I'm a Mitchell.
0:49:33 > 0:49:36And that still stands for something round here.
0:49:36 > 0:49:37And if Phil could see you now...
0:49:39 > 0:49:40..he'd be ashamed.
0:49:41 > 0:49:45So...you go...if you're going!
0:49:53 > 0:49:56Then they kicked me back to uniform.
0:49:56 > 0:49:58Course, it was all a misunderstanding,
0:49:58 > 0:49:59but mud sticks, don't it?
0:50:03 > 0:50:06Ollie was the only one who stuck by me.
0:50:06 > 0:50:08He was a good copper.
0:50:08 > 0:50:10Course, we all know why he's really retiring.
0:50:12 > 0:50:15- Do we?- It's enough to shake anybody up, ain't it?
0:50:15 > 0:50:17You think you're walking into a bog-standard domestic,
0:50:17 > 0:50:21you get there and find one kid dead on the floor and the other one...
0:50:23 > 0:50:25He does his best for them, but it's too late.
0:50:26 > 0:50:29Their mum was a nutter, she just went off on one.
0:50:31 > 0:50:32Sad, innit?
0:50:37 > 0:50:38Excuse me.
0:50:52 > 0:50:53Hey. You all right?
0:50:53 > 0:50:56Yeah. yeah, I just came up for a breather, that's all.
0:50:58 > 0:51:02I know that can't have been easy for you down there.
0:51:02 > 0:51:05- You know, seeing her again. - It's fine. It's fine,
0:51:05 > 0:51:07I was just surprised, that's all.
0:51:07 > 0:51:08No regrets.
0:51:30 > 0:51:34Jean! Where have you been? I've been waiting in there for ages.
0:51:34 > 0:51:35Sorry, I...
0:51:35 > 0:51:38You've been to that retirement party, ain't you?
0:51:38 > 0:51:41Can we not talk about it, Kat? Please?
0:51:42 > 0:51:44Course, whatever.
0:51:44 > 0:51:45Jean.
0:51:48 > 0:51:50Come on, let's go and have a drink.
0:51:56 > 0:51:59Right, I'm not going to tell you again - I've had complaints.
0:51:59 > 0:52:02Now, keep your hands to yourself. Cut out the swearing, or you're out.
0:52:02 > 0:52:04Who's complaining?
0:52:04 > 0:52:06Whoever it is, get them a bottle or something. Put it on my tab.
0:52:06 > 0:52:09Are you planning on paying your tab this time?
0:52:11 > 0:52:13I know I've got a face that women like to nag at.
0:52:13 > 0:52:16But can you not do it in front of my friends, please?
0:52:16 > 0:52:18Is everything OK, Sharon?
0:52:18 > 0:52:20Oh, here we are. You're there every time I turn.
0:52:20 > 0:52:21I'm fine. I can handle things.
0:52:21 > 0:52:24- Yeah, well, there's people waiting at the bar.- Excuse me?
0:52:24 > 0:52:26She said there's people waiting at the bar.
0:52:26 > 0:52:28It's a polite way of saying, "Do one, Sharon."
0:52:28 > 0:52:29You're welcome to each other.
0:52:31 > 0:52:33I can tell security ain't her thing.
0:52:33 > 0:52:34I could sort it out for you if you like?
0:52:34 > 0:52:36You know you're not doing this, don't you, Carl?
0:52:36 > 0:52:39You're not muscling in on this place and the Arches. Phil won't allow it.
0:52:39 > 0:52:42I've enjoyed today, sparring with you.
0:52:42 > 0:52:43But I'm here to tell you
0:52:43 > 0:52:46the Mitchells ain't any big news round here any more.
0:52:46 > 0:52:50I'm not scared of you. There's a load of people that want me out of Walford, and I'm still here.
0:52:50 > 0:52:52- Do you want to know why?- Do tell me.
0:52:52 > 0:52:53Because I'm a Mitchell.
0:52:53 > 0:52:55Now, why don't you get out of my club
0:52:55 > 0:52:58before I make a cheeky phone call and have you thrown you out?
0:52:59 > 0:53:02I like your style.
0:53:02 > 0:53:04Game on, then, Ronnie.
0:53:04 > 0:53:05Let's go.
0:53:10 > 0:53:12SHE SIGHS
0:53:26 > 0:53:28Feel better?
0:53:29 > 0:53:33Jean, listen to me, all right? You are not alone.
0:53:33 > 0:53:37Look at me - I haven't got a bloke. But I've got you. And Bianca.
0:53:37 > 0:53:39You've got loads of mates that really care about you.
0:53:39 > 0:53:41So just focus on that, yeah?
0:53:41 > 0:53:45Yeah. I'll be fine, Kat. You don't need to worry about me.
0:53:45 > 0:53:47Just popping to the loo, all right?
0:54:05 > 0:54:08Shirley, it's me.
0:54:09 > 0:54:11You probably won't get this for a while...
0:54:12 > 0:54:16I just wanted to say - be happy.
0:54:18 > 0:54:19I miss you.
0:54:39 > 0:54:41Look if you're still planning on leaving...
0:54:43 > 0:54:45..I'm going to need to know where you're going.
0:54:47 > 0:54:48Why?
0:54:52 > 0:54:54Because I've spent every day of the last three years
0:54:54 > 0:54:55trying to forget you.
0:54:58 > 0:54:59You know, thinking we were rotten.
0:55:02 > 0:55:03But we ain't.
0:55:07 > 0:55:09We lost our little boy.
0:55:10 > 0:55:11It broke us.
0:55:12 > 0:55:14But that don't have to be the end, Ron.
0:55:17 > 0:55:19Come on, we're better than that.
0:55:22 > 0:55:25I'm not going to let you push me away this time.
