Joey, get a move on we're running late.

Right, kids, make sure you pack everything up.

Tiff, your Christmas play's on the stairs, don't forget it.

I don't want you moaning you've left anything behind.

Christian...

you forgot this.

Thanks.

Thought maybe we could do something together later.

You know, catch a film with Yasmin?

If you like.

We're looking for Mr Christian Clarke?

What have you done?

You can't let whoever did this to you get away with it.

They need to be caught.

Look, I'm really sorry, but there's been a mistake, OK?

Nothing happened.

We're sorry for wasting your time.

Why are you covering up for them?

Make a statement, let them catch the scum that hurt you.

I've got nothing to say. So, I won't be going with you.

I'm afraid you have no choice, Mr Clarke.

There's been a very serious accusation against you.

Sorry...what? Against him?

I'm arresting you for assault. You do not have to say anything.

-But it may harm your defence...

-No, no, you've got it wrong!

..when questioned something which you later rely on in court...

He was assaulted! Leave him alone!

-Anything you do say may be given in evidence.

-He...

I suggest you be quiet, sir.

Syed?

I called you, you're making a mistake.

Tell them they've got it wrong, Christian. You were assaulted.

-Tell them!

-What's happened?

-They've just arrested Christian.

-What for?

-Look, can you look after Yasmin?

-No, mate, mate, I've got work.

I can't...

Wait, mate...

Syed...

Excuse me. To the police station, yeah?

-So, what do you think?

-Hmm?

Shall we go?

Go, go where?

Away. For a couple of days.

It's a bit sudden.

Well, I mean, Dennis is on the mend, thought it'd be nice,

you know, the three of us getting away before school kicks off.

What about work?

I've spoken to Joey and he's going to cover for you.

So, you're a free woman.

But I've got a lot to sort out.

Oh, yeah? Like what?

Stuff. Things for Monday, for school.

-Right.

-There's a lot to do.

Right. Well, listen, I'm a bit tied up this morning but text me,

I'll help out, yeah.

We'll meet up, go to the shops later.

I'm not sure what I need yet, Jack.

I'll have a little sniff round, you know,

for a late deal somewhere nice. Then we'll meet up, yeah?

Jack, it's not that I don't want to go...

Hotel, you know, swimming pool for Dennis, spa, room service...

or there's always Walford - you know, kids chucking fireworks about.

It's a tough call, innit? Catch you later, yeah?

OK.

Lauren, you were a mess....

I'm not doing this. Can you just back off, please?

No, I will not back off.

I got drunk, Mum, all right? Big deal.

I thought we'd been through this, eh?

What d'you want to get so wasted for? Is it the girls?

You all been rowing again?

See, I didn't get a word out of you last night.

It's Joey.

Joey?

Yes, yes, you want to know. It's Joey.

I just don't want him living here.

Why not? What's happened? What's he done?

Nothing.

So why don't you want him living with us?

Well, it's Lucy, innit? The way he's treated her...

You told me to make things right but with him here I just...

And everything with Whitney...

It's just making it really awkward between us...

-He's just so...

-He's just what?

You wanted to know why I got so drunk, OK...

I am telling you. It's Joey.

I don't want him living here, all right? I just don't.

You? Why are you here?

Why do you think? They've rounded him up already, have they?

Walford's most wanted.

You?

You think I did this to myself?

You want to get arrested for assault, as well, do you?

No, you're not going to do this. You're twisting it.

Twisting what?

You're not going to get away with this. It was you.

You attacked Christian and you're going to pay for it.

I attacked Christian?

Is that what he told you?

Two adults, one child... And that's all inclusive?

And you've definitely got a swimming pool, yeah?

And we're checking in tonight, yeah?

Excellent. Well, listen, I'll get back to you ASAP on that, yeah?

Thank you.

You going away?

Not that that's any of your business but yeah, that's the plan.

With Sharon?

No, Billy, I was going to ask you if you fancied a break.

Well, what about her work?

Don't worry, Joey's going to cover for her.

How long's she going to be gone for?

What is this, Walford border control?

-What next, "What's in my bag? "Did I pack it myself?"

-He's only asking.

Yeah, well, thanks for the interest, lads, but when what I do

at my weekends becomes your business, then I'll let you know.

Thanks.

I've already told them what happened anyway.

A jealous, possessive lover, lashed out...

No, no, you must have attacked him.

He hasn't told you has he?

And I thought I played games...

He must have read the text, he came instead of you.

Threw a hissy fit so I told him everything.

Yeah, all the gory details.

He didn't tell you, did he?

Hark at you two.

You tell him it's just a kiss, he pretends like nothing happened...

You two have got some serious trust issues going on here.

Please don't do this.

Don't do what? Send a violent man to prison?

I wouldn't worry about it anyway.

I'm sure he'll love it in there,

playing Prisoner Cell Block H with all the big, bad men.

Go on, go on, hit me.

Just make sure you smile for the CCTV while you do it.

Don't play the wounded victim with me, Syed.

You brought this on yourself. Just remember, you came on to me.

Look, I'll do anything you want. Whatever it takes.

Please just tell them you made a mistake, withdraw your statement.

-It's me you want to hurt, it's not Christian.

-Exactly.

Get me my money.

I told you I don't have any.

If you want me to withdraw my statement,

get me my 500 quid, or it's, "Bye-bye, Christian".

Yes, one o'clock at the Vic.

Oh, and tell Jack to be there, as well. No, you do it.

I've got too much to sort out before I go.

I don't care, Max, just make sure the pair of you are both there.

What's this? The new face of the Minute Mart?

What can I get you?

-Ain't got any sleeping pills, have you?

-No.

Tommy giving you gyp?

I've had about a half hour.

He kicks off, so I go in his room, he settles down.

When I go to leave, he kicks off again.

So much for sleep training.

The question is, who's training who?

Yeah, well, if me and Alfie want some private time,

it's got to be done, ain't it?

See you later.

See you later.

Oi!

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

What you doing, you daft mare?

Sausages.

What?

You know when they're pink in the middle, they're like rare steak?

Rare sausage?

Well, they don't make you ill or nothing, do they?

Ooh.

Jack.

-I was hoping I'd see you...

-For what?

You know, I just wanted to say thanks for being so understanding.

I really appreciate it.

Appreciate what?

You being so understanding about Sharon and Phil.

So let me get this straight. He's not getting on with her mates

so you want me to chuck him out?

You didn't see how upset she was.

She'll get over it, it's no big deal.

Look, her and Lucy have been friends for years.

If he's upsetting her by meddling with her friends, I want him gone.

It's what the kids do.

They fall out and the next minute they're all mates again.

Have a word with him, then.

Whatever problem she's got with him, let's nip it in the bud, all right?

I know he's family, but she's our daughter, she comes first.

Yes, boss.

-Hiya.

-You all right?

Where's Yasmin?

Playing in her room. Where's Christian? What the hell's going on?

Is it true? You getting involved with Phil Mitchell?

Jack, I was going to tell you this morning....

Oh, right. So, what, it just slipped your mind, did it?

Well, no, you were so busy talking and then you charged out.

-I didn't have the chance to...

-What's this?

Oh, "Maybe some underwear"? What, you having a laugh?

Look, Phil thought it'd be a good idea

if I left some stuff round his place.

You know, in case they noticed, cover all angles.

Oh right, so it's all part of the master plan, was it?

And going along with all this, whose idea was that? Yours or his?

It's for Lola.

I can't believe you're doing this.

Sorry, did I miss the bit where I had to ask your permission?

Oh, it's nothing about that.

I can't believe you're getting involved. Number one,

it's borderline illegal, it's morally wrong and it's just plain stupid.

Have you finished?

I don't know, Sharon, you tell me.

No, no. This has nothing to do with us.

Syed didn't want to come here. This was my idea.

How can he want more money, he's had everything already.

We need to think of a way of sorting this.

If this geezer doesn't withdraw his statement,

Christian will more than likely go to prison.

Did Christian punch him first?

I don't know.

Cos if he did... Why would he?

Are you still seeing him?

Seeing him?

I never was "seeing" him. I shouldn't have come.

I'm sorry.

No, no, no, you don't have to deal with this on your own.

Does he, Mas?

OK, we don't have any money but we'll... We'll think of something.

-We can stop this.

-How?

I don't know, but there must be something we can do. Mas...

HE SIGHS

..we can't let this geezer destroy this family anymore.

What family?

All right, Ian?

Carol, what can I get you?

No. No, you're all right.

When's Bianca back, then?

Not for a couple of weeks, I'm just sorting out a few things...

Well, thanks to Lucy,

getting her job back here's not going to be one of them.

You spoke to Lucy?

Seems us Jacksons aren't good enough for this place anymore.

She said that?

Well, not in so many words but, you know, it is a bit rich

considering half the reason she's inside is cos you wouldn't help her.

Yeah, I know what happened then and I'm sorry.

Oh, right, well, I suppose that is in the past...

Carol, I can try and have a word with Lucy

but I really can't promise anything.

Oh, well, she was at pains to tell me that she's the boss.

Yeah. Look, I'll see what I can do, OK?

Thanks.

Carol, I really am sorry.

So you've had a rough night, I don't see why you can't do your shift.

Because I'm about to fall asleep.

Maybe we should think about bringing Tommy back in with us?

-No. I'm not giving up.

-Listen, he's out with Jean.

Why don't you go and grab 40 winks?

Or she can get off her backside and do the job she's paid to do.

Uh, health and safety,

if she's tired she can't be operating machinery.

-Exactly.

-What machinery?

Jack, you wouldn't want me to put myself and you at risk, would you?

No, I wouldn't have thought so.

There you go, and he's ex Old Bill so what he says goes.

Whatever.

Can I get the usual please, Alf?

Course you can, mate.

-Thank you.

-Where's Max?

-I don't know.

-I said one o'clock. One o'clock.

OK. Think De Niro, Statham...

Who? Streatham?

Statham. Lock... OK.

Phil Mitchell... OK, you're Phil Mitchell.

Yeah, I'm Phil Mitchell. Amazing.

You know I said this was a good idea...

What is this? A show of force?

Withdraw your statement.

OK.

Really?

No, not really, Gonzo.

I thought you were more intelligent than this, Syed.

You ain't getting another penny.

So let me get this straight.

You two and the speccy nerd are supposed to be scaring me, yeah?

Is that all you've got?

No.

He's got me, as well.

I've cleared the cabinet by the bed,

I thought you could put some things out on the side, easy to see.

I don't know if they wander round, trying to suss the place out,

just want to be belt and braces, you know.

Where's your stuff?

Jack knows.

Well, I didn't expect you to hide it from him.

Obviously I was going to tell him but it seems Lola got there first.

And?

Sorry, Phil.

I can't let this come between me and Jack.

You ain't serious? What's he said?

Nothing.

He's gone off on one, has he? Is that what this is all about?

No. He just doesn't think it's a good idea.

-Oh, right, so he tells you what to do now, yeah?

-No.

Well, maybe I better go and have a word with him then.

I don't need either of you telling me what to do.

Me and you, Phil, we...

Look, I just don't think it's a good idea, OK?

Oh, right, so you don't think it's a good idea that we do

everything we can to help a mum be with her kid?

And you don't think it's a good idea

that I helped you chase that bloke down to get Dennis?

That's not fair, this is not the same.

It's exactly the same, Sharon.

When you saw Dennis disappearing off in that car, you would have done

anything to get him back...

Anything... And that's what I'm doing for Lola.

She's her mum and if I don't help her...

If you walk away, if you pull out, then it's over for Lola and for Lexi.

Don't guilt trip me, Phil.

I'm not guilt-tripping you, Sharon, I'm telling you how it's going to be.

Please, Sharon... Please.

No... I'm sorry.

I'm sorry Phil, I can't do it.

You wouldn't touch me, you haven't got the balls.

You want to put that to the test?

I'll call the police...

Yeah, you do that and while you're on the phone, you can tell them

about the six grand you took from us for an investment that failed.

Well, that wasn't my fault.

Oh really? An investment that completely fails, not a penny back.

not a single penny. That's weird...

Maybe the police would like to know how many other investors

you've fleeced?

Tell me, how long do you get for fraud? One year?

Two years?

You're bluffing.

Try me.

You get them to drop the charges.

Do you understand?

My brother said, do you understand?

Yeah, I understand.

I knew you'd come.

Just like the old days, don't mess with the brothers.

Thank you.

We wouldn't really have hit him, would we?

Here he is, the thinking woman's Gary Lineker.

You all right, ladies? What's this, liquid lunch?

You never saw Max in his shorts when he played football for

-the Queen Vic, did you?

-Oh, I saw him.

It was a sight to behold weren't it, Maxy?

-Yeah.

-Maxy, give us a wave.

Maxy, Maxy...give us a wave! Yeah!

Decided to show up then?

All right, calm down, Miss, dog ate me homework.

So come on then, you've got us here, what's so drastic?

-Right, Derek.

-Here we go.

He's the one that's being pathetic about this best man thing.

He needs to wind his neck in.

Well, can't you involve him somehow? Make him chief usher or something?

No, you've seen what he's been like.

He ain't doing himself any favours, is he?

-He's a lonely, middle-aged man.

-Who's fault is that?

He's spent most of his life behind bars, all right?

He's still hung up on a girl he loved more than 30 years ago,

I mean, he's not as lucky as you two.

I mean, you've got Tanya and the kids.

You're all loved up with Sharon...

So I'm just telling you right, just back off, because enough is enough.

Have you got it? I said have you got it?

-Yeah.

-Yeah, all right.

Dad...

Dad.

I really appreciate you helping me.

I did it for the family.

I'm sorry. I just want you to forgive me.

It's not me who needs your forgiveness, Syed...

..it's your husband.

I'm sorry.

What, sorry for dumping me in it with your family?

Or sorry for not having the guts to tell me to my face?

For the kiss.

Do you regret it?

You were the one that stopped.

Yeah, that's cos you were drunk, Lauren.

And now you're sober.

We can't do this.

No.

No, this stops.

It stops now.

Whisky.

Whisky...and the magic word?

Double.

Derek. Derek, you going to come and join us?

I thought you were desperate to get on your way?

Yeah, well, I've got time for one more drink.

You all right, Del?

I've been thinking about the wedding,

wondered if you want to be head usher?

Usher?

Yeah, you know, make sure everyone's in the right seats and all that.

Do you want me to sell ice-creams during the interval as well, do you?

Usher? I don't think so, thank you.

-Here you go.

-Alfie, let me get that mate...

No, it's all right. I can buy my own drinks, thank you very much.

Derek, he's just being nice.

Oh, yeah?

That's what I thought I saw Sharon doing

when she was walking into Phil Mitchell's earlier.

What did you say?

All cosy on the home front is it, Jack?

Oi, you don't know what's going on with me and Sharon

so don't even go there.

I think you should be telling Phil Mitchell that, not me, mate.

D'you know what...

I give up on the lot of you.

He's the one being a muppet, not us.

This stops.

Now you sort this out by the time I get back with Bianca,

or I'm just going to wash my hands of the lot of you.

They're not charging you?

What did you do to make him change his statement?

Leave it. Wait, I ain't had my choice yet.

-What you talking about?

-You had one!

-It's my choice.

-No... I put the money in.

Ain't you girls got any taste? This is the one you want.

Del! Oi, oi, oi.

Butt out.

Oh look, bless her little cotton socks,

she can hardly keep her eyes open, she's so tired.

MUSIC: "Your Song" by Elton John

Oh, I love this....

What you talking about, you love this?

You're not a fan of Elton John, are you?

This was our track, in the summer,

you was putting this on all the time...

What you talking about? I never put this on.

-Alfie, this is my favourite song.

-Is that right? First I've heard of that.

Know what I'm going to get you for Christmas, don't I?

Greatest hits of Elton John. Yes, mate.

Right, got to make a move. Play nicely.

Ladies.

Maxy, give us a wave. Yeah!

See you later.

Later.

Why didn't you say anything?

These last few days...

If you knew, why didn't you say anything?

It's done, it's over.

So that's it. We carry on?

What do you expect me to say, Sy? You lied to me.

On our wedding day, you stood there and you swore to me that

it was just a kiss...

I tried to tell you.

No, you told me anything I wanted to hear.

Why would you do that to me?

Everything was going wrong...

..and I know what I did was wrong, but....

Really...

I needed to know that I could be me, without you.

I needed to know that there was more to me.

More to me than you.

And is there, Sy?

I don't know.

Maybe it ain't so wrong, all right?

-You're my cousin.

-Yeah.

You tell me, then,

when we kissed, you tell me that it felt wrong, all right?

You tell me that you didn't feel what I felt.

I want to be with you.

All right?

You leaving, then?

No.

No, he's not leaving.

Make your mind up.

Jack.

It's all right, you can put your toys back in your pram,

Sharon's told me that you ain't happy about it.

So it ain't going to happen.

We'll have to sort something else out.

-Doing this...

-It's sorted...

No, listen. Doing this, helping Lola out...

it's fine.

You're OK with it?

If it's what you want, then yeah, course, I'm OK with it.

Thank you.

I'm hardly going to stand in the way of a mum being with her kid, am I?

Right, well, you get the drinks in, I'm off to the ladies.

I'm watching you.

Why, you got something to worry about?

You love me so much that you were just going to ignore it?

I thought our marriage was worth more than some grubby fumble.

Our marriage?

What is that exactly?

Us all loved up, in domestic bliss.

And I still do.

What's so wrong with wanting to spend the rest of your life with someone?

And saying some vows, that guarantees that?

That's us done, that's our future?

There are no guarantees, Sy.

But with love and trust, you...

Love...

and trust?

I lied to you on the same day I made those vows.

Everlasting commitment?

This is the bedrock of our marriage, is it?

I lie, then you lie by not letting me know that you know I lied...

And we go round and round. It's all lies.

It's not all lies.

This Danny guy, he thinks he knows you.

That's how you won't settle, that you want more than Walford,

more than me.

He's not the one that stood with you on Bridge Street,

in the freezing cold, drinking hot chocolate...

I heard you say you loved me for the first time....

Saw that look of love in your eyes...

And every time since then... All that we've had...

He doesn't know you, Sy.

I do.

You want to know why I didn't say anything?

Because in the grand scheme of things, it really doesn't matter to me

as long as I still know that you love me.

I'm sorry. I don't deserve you...

Now, we can move on from this...

..all of this...

You just tell me that he's wrong...

..and that he doesn't know you.

You look at me like you did that first time, and you tell me

that you love me.

That you want...me.

Nowm if you can't, then...

..I'm the one that's wrong...

..and this is over.
