0:11:04 > 0:11:07I just think you need to talk to him. Just sort it out.

0:13:03 > 0:13:06and you back off my girlfriend.

0:32:18 > 0:32:19I DID finish it with him!
0:32:19 > 0:32:23Kat, I heard it, OK?
0:32:23 > 0:32:25He played it to me here and I heard everything.
0:32:26 > 0:32:30You in the middle of the night...
0:32:30 > 0:32:33sneaking out of our bed, you couldn't stop thinking about him...
0:32:33 > 0:32:34No, that was before...
0:32:37 > 0:32:38He said...
0:32:39 > 0:32:42What? What did he say, Kat?
0:32:43 > 0:32:45He lied to me.
0:32:55 > 0:32:57Bedroom.
0:32:59 > 0:33:01Didn't take you long, did it?
0:33:03 > 0:33:05But then you always were a fast mover.
0:33:09 > 0:33:10Get up.
0:33:10 > 0:33:14Why? I'm tired. I've had a long trip. All on my own.
0:33:14 > 0:33:17Christmas Day in the dark.
0:33:17 > 0:33:18I feel like a lie-down.
0:33:18 > 0:33:19DOOR CLOSING
0:33:25 > 0:33:26Care to join me?
0:33:29 > 0:33:31I told you to get up. Get up! Up!
0:33:31 > 0:33:35Look at you! Caught out in front of your whole family.
0:33:35 > 0:33:37How embarrassing! How very awkward.
0:33:39 > 0:33:40How did you find me?
0:33:40 > 0:33:43Your brother. Your lovely brother.
0:33:43 > 0:33:46He finally came through after all this time.
0:33:46 > 0:33:50After 13 months, he finally told me where you were.
0:33:50 > 0:33:51You've got to go, Kirsty.
0:33:52 > 0:33:55You've got to go, all right?
0:33:55 > 0:33:57- Here's some more money. Go on. - I don't want your money!
0:33:57 > 0:33:59I want an explanation.
0:33:59 > 0:34:03I want you to tell me, face to face, look me in the eye,
0:34:03 > 0:34:05and tell me why you let me down.
0:34:05 > 0:34:08Why did you do that to me, when we were in love? We were married!
0:34:08 > 0:34:11- Look. I'm sorry.- Sorry?!
0:34:11 > 0:34:13And is there more? Or is that it?
0:34:13 > 0:34:14Just sorry?
0:34:17 > 0:34:19All I got was a phone call.
0:34:19 > 0:34:22Just one phone call.
0:34:22 > 0:34:25One minute we're in love, married,
0:34:25 > 0:34:27shipping up to Manchester, start a new life,
0:34:27 > 0:34:30and the next thing I know, we're done.
0:34:34 > 0:34:36Babe, it was complicated.
0:34:36 > 0:34:40Well, tell me. Or am I too thick to understand?
0:34:41 > 0:34:44Jack called me. Told me to come back here. He was worried.
0:34:44 > 0:34:46Worried?
0:34:46 > 0:34:51Yeah, cos Tanya... Tanya had cancer. Cervical cancer.
0:34:51 > 0:34:54She'd lied to me. She'd sent me away. She was here,
0:34:54 > 0:34:57she was in a state, refusing treatment. I didn't know what to do!
0:34:57 > 0:34:59So you set Derek onto me. Trying to scare me off.
0:34:59 > 0:35:01What are you talking about? I didn't set him on to you.
0:35:01 > 0:35:04Babe, he said he'd talk to you, said he'd deal with it.
0:35:04 > 0:35:06By paying me off? That the way you deal with it?
0:35:06 > 0:35:10A bit of money in an envelope shoved through the door?
0:35:10 > 0:35:11That the way you finish it with me, is it?
0:35:11 > 0:35:13I needed to get hold of the divorce papers.
0:35:13 > 0:35:16It was Derek - he said I should give him money.
0:35:16 > 0:35:17He said it was the best thing to do.
0:35:17 > 0:35:19And you listened to him?
0:35:20 > 0:35:23I was stuck, all right? I didn't know what else to do.
0:35:23 > 0:35:27Ring the doorbell. Look me in the eye. TALK to me.
0:35:27 > 0:35:30I couldn't do that. I couldn't do that, all right? I'm sorry.
0:35:30 > 0:35:31I couldn't risk it.
0:35:34 > 0:35:35Risk what?
0:35:37 > 0:35:40Still being in love with me?
0:35:40 > 0:35:41That it?
0:35:44 > 0:35:45Still wanting me?
0:35:47 > 0:35:48Is that it?
0:35:54 > 0:35:56Yeah.
0:35:56 > 0:35:58You know, I loved you SO much.
0:35:59 > 0:36:00HE SIGHS
0:36:00 > 0:36:02For so long.
0:36:02 > 0:36:03But...
0:36:06 > 0:36:08..I can't deal with this, you know?
0:36:08 > 0:36:09Derek...
0:36:11 > 0:36:13..Harry.
0:36:14 > 0:36:16You know, I thought...
0:36:17 > 0:36:19..I could help you.
0:36:19 > 0:36:20I honestly thought
0:36:20 > 0:36:22I could help you, but I can't.
0:36:22 > 0:36:24But I love you.
0:36:28 > 0:36:30It's too late.
0:36:33 > 0:36:35I've moved on.
0:36:38 > 0:36:40I'm going to go and get Tommy.
0:36:40 > 0:36:43No, don't wake him. Um...
0:36:43 > 0:36:46Let him sleep. I don't want to ruin his Christmas Day.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49- When he wakes up, he's going to want to see you.- He's got you.
0:36:50 > 0:36:52Um... Give him a kiss from me.
0:36:54 > 0:36:56I'll get him in the morning.

0:37:58 > 0:38:00Just get rid of everyone. Tell everyone to leave.
0:38:02 > 0:38:03And then what?
0:38:07 > 0:38:09- I love Tanya.- You love me too. - I don't.
0:38:09 > 0:38:11Yes. Don't pretend.
0:38:14 > 0:38:16You can touch me if you want.
0:38:17 > 0:38:18You can.
0:38:19 > 0:38:20Just hold my hand.
0:38:24 > 0:38:25There.
0:38:26 > 0:38:28It's just a hand.
0:38:30 > 0:38:31Babe, no.
0:38:32 > 0:38:35What's wrong with you? What are you afraid of?
0:38:35 > 0:38:39Kirsty, I can't do this, all right? I'm not like that any more.
0:38:39 > 0:38:41I've got kids. I'm a dad. I've got a life here.
0:38:41 > 0:38:43I just can't do this.
0:38:43 > 0:38:44Kiss me. Just kiss me.
0:38:44 > 0:38:46Once. Just once.
0:38:46 > 0:38:48- Kiss me once and you'll know. - Kirsty, please, no.
0:38:53 > 0:38:56Babe, will you just, please... Just go, will you?
0:38:56 > 0:38:57No!
0:38:58 > 0:39:01- I'm your wife and you're my husband. That's it.- You ain't.
0:39:01 > 0:39:02You took that money. It's sorted.
0:39:02 > 0:39:04You think you can just pay me off and that's it?
0:39:04 > 0:39:08- You ain't complained before. Couple of days ago, Derek gave you another two grand.- No, he didn't.
0:39:08 > 0:39:12- He gave me nothing. If he had, I'd have thrown it in his face. - He told me you'd accepted it.
0:39:12 > 0:39:15- He said you'd signed the papers and it was sorted.- And you believed him?
0:39:15 > 0:39:17- DOWNSTAIRS:- Bye...
0:39:17 > 0:39:21You think a bit of cash would make up for what I'd lost? You. The baby.
0:39:21 > 0:39:24I was pregnant, and you couldn't be bothered to speak to me...
0:39:24 > 0:39:26Woah, what are you talking about?
0:39:26 > 0:39:28I was pregnant with your baby.
0:39:28 > 0:39:30Don't pretend you don't know. Derek told you.
0:39:32 > 0:39:34Didn't he?
0:39:35 > 0:39:36Nah.
0:39:36 > 0:39:39No, he didn't.
0:39:39 > 0:39:43- Call me later, right? Anything you want. Just call.- Yeah, will do.
0:39:46 > 0:39:50Tan, er... Well, thanks for having us.
0:39:50 > 0:39:52- Cheers.- See you later.
0:39:54 > 0:39:56Well, go on, then. You too.

0:40:10 > 0:40:12Derek said you weren't interested.
0:40:12 > 0:40:15I begged him. "Just get Max to call me," I said.
0:40:15 > 0:40:18"Get him to call me." I didn't know what to do.
0:40:18 > 0:40:22I didn't know if there was any hope, if you wanted the baby.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24Wanted...
0:40:24 > 0:40:26the two of us to have a baby together.
0:40:26 > 0:40:28I was just holding on.

0:41:46 > 0:41:47Well, there's nothing going on.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53I've sent everyone home.
0:41:53 > 0:41:56- Babe, why? You didn't have to do that.- Really?
0:41:56 > 0:42:00Oh. Why, what's she going to do? Come down and put on a cabaret?
0:42:02 > 0:42:04Derek's been filling me in.
0:42:04 > 0:42:07It's exotic dancing. That's your line, is it?
0:42:07 > 0:42:09Used to be. I'm retired.
0:42:09 > 0:42:11Oh, right. What do you do now?
0:42:11 > 0:42:14Just take your clothes off, steal other people's husbands?
0:42:14 > 0:42:17I do not take my clothes off.
0:42:17 > 0:42:18I work in a bar.
0:42:18 > 0:42:23It's temporary. And actually, YOU are trying to steal MY husband.
0:42:26 > 0:42:30This ring. He put it on my finger. In a registry office.
0:42:30 > 0:42:32And these...
0:42:35 > 0:42:38Divorce papers. Not signed.
0:42:40 > 0:42:42So this might be your house...

0:43:00 > 0:43:02No.
0:43:02 > 0:43:03I ain't backing off.
0:43:03 > 0:43:06Now I know Derek's been lying to you, it all makes sense.
0:43:06 > 0:43:09- I just need to talk to her, all right? Please.- About what?
0:43:09 > 0:43:12I just want to, all right? Go downstairs. Get a drink.
0:43:12 > 0:43:15Or don't - just open the front door, go through it.
0:43:18 > 0:43:20I'll be downstairs.
0:43:20 > 0:43:21Waiting.

0:43:48 > 0:43:51Tell me.
0:43:51 > 0:43:54Tell me. Tell me it ain't true.
0:43:54 > 0:43:57Cos I've still got this tiny, tiny little bit of hope.
0:43:57 > 0:43:59HE EXHALES
0:43:59 > 0:44:01It is, babe. It's true.
0:44:03 > 0:44:04Oh...

0:44:08 > 0:44:10How has this happened, huh?
0:44:10 > 0:44:12How am I...
0:44:12 > 0:44:15How am I standing here, like this?
0:44:15 > 0:44:18Like an idiot, in this dress, at Christmas?
0:44:18 > 0:44:21How has that happened? How have you let that happen?!
0:44:21 > 0:44:24Cos it was over, Tan. I thought it was all sorted.
0:44:24 > 0:44:26All sorted? Over? I didn't even know she existed!
0:44:29 > 0:44:32- Babe, please come and sit down. - No. No, I just want to hear it.
0:44:32 > 0:44:35Straight, right? And then I'm just going to go downstairs,
0:44:35 > 0:44:36look after the kids...
0:44:36 > 0:44:39I've got to try and salvage something out of this...
0:44:39 > 0:44:41horror show.
0:44:41 > 0:44:42This mess you've created.
0:44:42 > 0:44:45Well, you sent me away, didn't you?
0:44:46 > 0:44:48Tan, you sent me away.
0:44:48 > 0:44:51- No, don't you even begin... Don't... - You did, babe. You lied to me.
0:44:51 > 0:44:53You lied to me about your illness.
0:44:53 > 0:44:58You did. You told me you didn't want me. You told me you didn't love me.
0:44:58 > 0:45:03All right, you lied because you were scared. I understand all that, but you did, babe. You told me to go.
0:45:03 > 0:45:06That's all ancient history, isn't it? She's here. She's here now, in our house.
0:45:06 > 0:45:08That's why she's here, Tan.
0:45:08 > 0:45:11I thought we were dead. I thought we were gone. I had nothing, babe.
0:45:11 > 0:45:15When Derek scooped me up I was down, I was the lowest I've ever been.
0:45:15 > 0:45:17I was drinking, I was in a mess.
0:45:19 > 0:45:21That's when I met her. She was in a mess and all.
0:45:21 > 0:45:23We just sort of found each other.
0:45:23 > 0:45:27Comforted each other. It just sort of went on from there.
0:45:27 > 0:45:29Went on...went on to what? What, the altar?
0:45:29 > 0:45:32Well, she wanted proof, didn't she? She wanted a sign.
0:45:32 > 0:45:35I thought maybe if I took the plunge... Cos I was, I was involved with her.
0:45:35 > 0:45:37How involved?
0:45:39 > 0:45:41Well, enough to get married.
0:45:44 > 0:45:46- You were in love with her? - Oh, love? I don't know, babe.
0:45:48 > 0:45:50All right, yeah, I thought I was.
0:45:50 > 0:45:52And now?
0:45:52 > 0:45:55Course I don't love her now. How could I love her now?
0:45:57 > 0:45:59I love you, don't I? I want to be with you.
0:46:03 > 0:46:05Why didn't you tell me?
0:46:05 > 0:46:08Why didn't you tell me all this when you came back?
0:46:08 > 0:46:11Babe, how could I? You were sick. You were refusing your treatment.
0:46:11 > 0:46:13You know, that had to come first, babe.
0:46:13 > 0:46:15I had to put you first, didn't I? Your health.
0:46:15 > 0:46:18What about after the treatment when I was in the all-clear?
0:46:18 > 0:46:22We were still taking things slow, trying to get everything back on track.
0:46:22 > 0:46:25I had one chance, one chance to tell you - that day when I came back.
0:46:27 > 0:46:29Once that was gone, I couldn't. How could I?
0:46:29 > 0:46:32How could you think you could marry me without telling me?! Are you stupid?
0:46:32 > 0:46:36I told you, I thought it was sorted, all right? I sent her divorce papers and some money!
0:46:38 > 0:46:40Have you seen her? Have you been seeing her?
0:46:40 > 0:46:44No. I ain't seen her. I ain't seen her since the day I got back.
0:46:44 > 0:46:47I swear to you. I've spoken to her once.
0:46:47 > 0:46:49That week after I came back, I phoned her,
0:46:49 > 0:46:52I said my plans had changed, I was back at home. And that's it.
0:46:52 > 0:46:53After that, nothing.
0:46:54 > 0:46:56But you gave her money?
0:46:56 > 0:46:59- Yeah, I put it through the door with the papers. - But she didn't give 'em back?
0:46:59 > 0:47:02No, not at first.
0:47:02 > 0:47:04Derek dealt with her.
0:47:04 > 0:47:06It's Derek, he was meant to be sorting this all out.
0:47:06 > 0:47:08In fact, he told me he had sorted it out!
0:47:08 > 0:47:10He told me he had the papers!
0:47:11 > 0:47:13(Derek?)
0:47:13 > 0:47:16Derek knew? Of course. And he's...
0:47:16 > 0:47:18SHE EXHALES
0:47:18 > 0:47:20So he's been laughing at me all this time?
0:47:20 > 0:47:23All the little snide comments! He knew! He knew and I didn't.
0:47:23 > 0:47:27Yeah, well, he's the reason she's here, in our house. It's cos of him.
0:47:29 > 0:47:31He's done this to us, babe, to pay us back, to make me suffer.
0:47:31 > 0:47:34Well, I tell you, he ain't going to get away with this.
0:47:34 > 0:47:36But you are, are you?
0:47:36 > 0:47:40You're going to get away with it all scot-free, aren't you? All this.
0:47:42 > 0:47:43Babe, I told you.
0:47:44 > 0:47:48If you hadn't lied to me about your illness, none of this would have happened.
0:47:48 > 0:47:51You must see that, Tanya. You've got to understand that.
0:47:51 > 0:47:52No.
0:47:53 > 0:47:54No, I don't.
0:47:56 > 0:47:58You remember the day I got back?
0:48:00 > 0:48:03That first day. Don't you remember? Me and you in this room.
0:48:03 > 0:48:05Lying here in the darkness.
0:48:08 > 0:48:10Just after you told me about your dad.
0:48:12 > 0:48:14Do you remember how vulnerable you were?
0:48:15 > 0:48:18I loved you...I loved you so much.
0:48:20 > 0:48:21And I thought you didn't want me,
0:48:21 > 0:48:26and then all of a sudden I found out you did, that you loved me and you wanted me and...
0:48:26 > 0:48:29Then all of this - her - all of it,
0:48:29 > 0:48:32just didn't seem to matter any more.
0:48:34 > 0:48:36I just wanted to come home.
0:48:38 > 0:48:40To you. To my wife.
0:48:43 > 0:48:47You ain't ever, ever, stopped being my wife, Tanya. Not in any way.
0:48:47 > 0:48:49That's what you said, isn't it?
0:48:49 > 0:48:52That's what you said on there, lying there.
0:48:52 > 0:48:53And I meant it.
0:48:55 > 0:48:57I meant it from the bottom of my heart.
0:49:00 > 0:49:03Then you got the ring out, didn't you? Your wedding ring,
0:49:03 > 0:49:05you got it out of your pocket. Remember?
0:49:07 > 0:49:09You said you'd always felt married to me inside.
0:49:11 > 0:49:12I did.
0:49:15 > 0:49:16I have.
0:49:20 > 0:49:22I do.
0:49:34 > 0:49:35Why was it in your pocket?
0:49:40 > 0:49:41What?
0:49:44 > 0:49:47The ring. The wedding ring. Why was it in your pocket?
0:49:51 > 0:49:54Oh, you know, because I'd always just kept it. Sentimental.
0:49:54 > 0:49:56What's it matter?
0:49:57 > 0:49:59What's it matter, babe? I told you.
0:50:03 > 0:50:05Oh.
0:50:11 > 0:50:13Wasn't cos you'd just taken it off?
0:50:13 > 0:50:17Just taken it off outside in the car. That wasn't it? No?
0:50:17 > 0:50:18No.
0:50:20 > 0:50:24- It was, wasn't it? - Babe, what's it matter? Everything I've said to you has been true.
0:50:24 > 0:50:27Yeah? Except for that? Yeah? Everything...
0:50:27 > 0:50:30What, and everything since? Yes, and today, of course.
0:50:30 > 0:50:32And this dress? This dress?
0:50:32 > 0:50:35- And this stupid thing and all this... - Don't do that, please.
0:50:35 > 0:50:37What are you doing? Don't do that, please.
0:50:37 > 0:50:39DOORBELL RINGS
0:50:43 > 0:50:45Get Derek out of here, please.
0:50:48 > 0:50:51Where have you been? I was just leaving you a message.
0:50:54 > 0:50:55Where's Tommy?
0:51:05 > 0:51:06What are you doing, Kat?
0:51:06 > 0:51:08Where are the messages?
0:51:11 > 0:51:14Where are my messages?
0:51:14 > 0:51:16I deleted them.
0:51:16 > 0:51:18FOOTSTEPS ON STAIRS
0:51:18 > 0:51:22- Babe, I've already told you, ain't I?- I just want to hear it from her.
0:51:22 > 0:51:25- Where is she?- In there.
0:51:25 > 0:51:27Thanks.
0:51:27 > 0:51:30Babe, just listen to me, will you? Tan!
0:51:33 > 0:51:36No, no, I want you gone. Out.
0:51:36 > 0:51:38Just me and her. I want to know the truth. Just get out.
0:51:48 > 0:51:50Have you been seeing him?
0:51:51 > 0:51:53Have you been seeing him all this time?
0:51:53 > 0:51:55You want the truth?
0:51:55 > 0:51:57You really want the truth?
0:51:58 > 0:51:59Yeah.
0:52:02 > 0:52:05I ain't seen him for a year. Over a year.
0:52:08 > 0:52:09And bang -
0:52:09 > 0:52:13through that door tonight, minute I saw him...
0:52:15 > 0:52:16..it was back.
0:52:16 > 0:52:18Our special thing.
0:52:21 > 0:52:25How could you do this? How could do this to us, Dad?
0:52:25 > 0:52:28Babe, this ain't how it seems, all right? I promise you.
0:52:28 > 0:52:30She's here in our house on Christmas Day!
0:52:30 > 0:52:34- It's not my fault, is it?- No? Well, whose fault is it, then, Dad?
0:52:34 > 0:52:36- You've ruined my life!- No.
0:52:36 > 0:52:39No, you ruined your life and now you're trying to blame me.
0:52:39 > 0:52:43Look, first thing in the morning you'll see.
0:52:43 > 0:52:47We'll get on that plane and we'll leave all this grief behind us, yeah?
0:52:47 > 0:52:52Are you mad? Have you not listened to anything that I've been saying?
0:52:52 > 0:52:54I heard.
0:52:54 > 0:52:56Get your coat on.
0:52:56 > 0:52:58I ain't going anywhere!
0:52:58 > 0:53:00- Get your coat on.- No.
0:53:00 > 0:53:04And you can't make me. You can't make me do anything.
0:53:04 > 0:53:07You'll be surprised how persuasive I can be.
0:53:07 > 0:53:11Now, come on, put your coat on. There's a good girl.
0:53:11 > 0:53:12That's it, that's the way.
0:53:12 > 0:53:14No!
0:53:14 > 0:53:16Put your coat on!
0:53:18 > 0:53:20Oh, well, if it isn't Mr Bigamist?
0:53:20 > 0:53:22Why don't you leave Kat alone?
0:53:22 > 0:53:24Why? What are you going to do? You going to make me?
0:53:24 > 0:53:28- What, you and Tweedledee here? - Yeah. Yeah, maybe I am.
0:53:28 > 0:53:32- You haven't got the nerve. - Why's that, Del? Why? Cos you're a big man, are you?
0:53:32 > 0:53:36What, bullying women, threatening little girls, threatening my daughter, terrorising my wife?
0:53:36 > 0:53:39Which one? Hmm? I wouldn't bring Tanya into this.
0:53:39 > 0:53:41She's not too fond of you at the moment.
0:53:41 > 0:53:44That's cos of you, Del, ain't it, eh?
0:53:44 > 0:53:46It's cos you lied to me. You lied to me, Derek.
0:53:46 > 0:53:48You lied to me about the money.
0:53:48 > 0:53:50You lied to me about the papers.
0:53:52 > 0:53:55And then you lied to me about the baby. The baby.
0:53:55 > 0:53:57How could you do that to me?
0:53:57 > 0:54:00I was protecting you. I told you she was no good.
0:54:00 > 0:54:02She had an abortion. She had an abortion cos of you.
0:54:02 > 0:54:04You should thank me, shouldn't you?
0:54:04 > 0:54:06You've got three already. What do you want a fourth for?
0:54:06 > 0:54:08I'm going to kill you, Derek, you know that?
0:54:08 > 0:54:11- You're going to kill me?! - I'm going to kill you!
0:54:11 > 0:54:15You little runt! You wouldn't know where to start! You're a runt.
0:54:15 > 0:54:18You're the runt of the litter. You always have been and you always will be.
0:54:18 > 0:54:23Me and my father, we used to laugh at you, pushing you around.
0:54:23 > 0:54:25Do you remember the coffin, Maxie boy?
0:54:25 > 0:54:28Do you remember the night in the coffin? Dad's friend, the undertaker?
0:54:28 > 0:54:32I did that to you! Me!
0:54:32 > 0:54:35To show you who's boss.
0:54:35 > 0:54:36Like I'm showing you now.
0:54:38 > 0:54:41You crossed me once too often.
0:54:41 > 0:54:44You and that snobby, stuck-up wife of yours.
0:54:44 > 0:54:46Looking down her nose at me.
0:54:46 > 0:54:51And you. You and that pill-popping girlfriend treating me like dirt.
0:54:51 > 0:54:53I'm ashamed of you.
0:54:53 > 0:54:55I'm ashamed of the both of you.
0:54:55 > 0:54:59No man, no man treats me like that.
0:54:59 > 0:55:01I am Derek Branning ...
0:55:02 > 0:55:06..and I am the head of this family!
0:55:06 > 0:55:10All I wanted from you two was a bit of love, a bit of respect.
0:55:10 > 0:55:13Well, you've done it now. You've started it now.
0:55:13 > 0:55:15I'm finished with the pair of you.
0:55:15 > 0:55:16Done!
0:55:18 > 0:55:20I've got my own family now.
0:55:20 > 0:55:23I've got my Alice, I've got my Kat,
0:55:23 > 0:55:26I've got little Tommy.
0:55:26 > 0:55:29Now I'm going to go back to my house
0:55:29 > 0:55:32and I'm going to finish my Christmas...
0:55:32 > 0:55:34in peace and quiet!
0:55:34 > 0:55:35Kat, we're going.
0:55:35 > 0:55:38No. No, I don't want...
0:55:38 > 0:55:42- Get off me! Get off me! - Get him out of here!- Joey!
0:55:42 > 0:55:46- I'm going to have you.- Get him out of here!- I'm going to have you, Max!
0:55:46 > 0:55:48Get out. Get out! Get out of my house!
0:55:48 > 0:55:51Stay here. Keep the girls indoors.
0:55:51 > 0:55:54Get out! Get out!
0:55:59 > 0:56:02You get back. You get back!
0:56:02 > 0:56:04You lay your hands on me?
0:56:04 > 0:56:06I'm your brother!
0:56:06 > 0:56:08Not any more, you ain't.
0:56:08 > 0:56:13You're going to regret this, you. All of you. You wait and see.
0:56:13 > 0:56:16You don't know what I'm going to do to you!
