0:00:27 > 0:00:31- That's gorgeous, Abi. - Lola helped me choose it.
0:00:31 > 0:00:34Yeah? Who helped you pay for it?
0:00:34 > 0:00:37- Dad. - THEY LAUGH
0:00:37 > 0:00:38You don't think it's too much?
0:00:38 > 0:00:41No, one thing about Branning women, never too much. Never.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44- And Lauren's definitely coming over? - Should be here in a bit.
0:00:44 > 0:00:48- And she's invited everyone? - Everyone.- OK.
0:00:48 > 0:00:52Definitely, except Beyonce, she's off the guest list.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55I thought just close friends and family, really.
0:00:55 > 0:00:59Probably best, isn't it? For Lauren. Still be fun though.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02Go on, go and make yourself look even beautiful,
0:01:02 > 0:01:04and I'll ferret out that sister of yours.
0:01:09 > 0:01:13Lola... Yeah, it's me. It's arrived!
0:01:13 > 0:01:15Oh, good! Can't wait to see it...
0:01:15 > 0:01:17Yeah, I'm with 'em. I'll ask. One sec...
0:01:17 > 0:01:19Abi wants to know if you two are dressing up?
0:01:19 > 0:01:21Oh, yeah, boob tube and stilettos for me.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23I think Jay's going to wear the all-in-one.
0:01:23 > 0:01:25Makes his figure look nice. You know, bum and that?!
0:01:25 > 0:01:28Ignore him, Abi. That's Dex, thinking he's funny...
0:01:28 > 0:01:31Yeah, don't worry, I'll tell him. Laters!
0:01:31 > 0:01:34- No booze, remember! - You serious?- Yes.
0:01:34 > 0:01:36Orders from the birthday girl as well,
0:01:36 > 0:01:38- you two are wearing shirt and shoes.- Sorry?
0:01:38 > 0:01:40As if sitting in Abi's front room, around a bunch of
0:01:40 > 0:01:42geriatric relatives, sober as a judge, ain't bad enough!
0:01:42 > 0:01:45Excuse me, I plan on hitting the town later on
0:01:45 > 0:01:48and if I can't get in cos you two idiots are wearing trainers,
0:01:48 > 0:01:51I ain't going to be happy. OK? Shoes.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54Thank you... Get your stuff. Let's go.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57I don't know who died and made her the Queen of Sheba...
0:01:57 > 0:02:00CHATTERING FADES
0:02:13 > 0:02:16What's this, a new Olympic sport, running away from the husband?
0:02:16 > 0:02:19- I've got to get ready for work. - You seen him?
0:02:19 > 0:02:21- Who?- Prince Charles(!) Who do you think?
0:02:21 > 0:02:23Not since last night. And I told you,
0:02:23 > 0:02:25he's not worth worrying about.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28I might believe you, if you'd been straight with me from the off.
0:02:28 > 0:02:31He hijacked me, I barely had time to process it before I saw you.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33And anyway, he's history now.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35I don't believe this.
0:02:35 > 0:02:37Don't rise.
0:02:37 > 0:02:39What does he want?
0:02:39 > 0:02:40How should I know?
0:02:42 > 0:02:45He's your ex, you must've had some sort of conversation with him.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48You're acting as though I just invited him here.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50Maybe it's you he's after,
0:02:50 > 0:02:53you weren't exactly friendly with his brother.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00Yes, Tan?
0:03:00 > 0:03:02- Looking for Lauren.- Right.
0:03:02 > 0:03:04- Our daughter?- Yeah. Come up.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24- How did last night go? - How should I know?
0:03:24 > 0:03:26Didn't you see her this morning?
0:03:26 > 0:03:28No, cos I left early. I didn't want to wake her up.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31Run a tight ship, I see(!) KNOCKING
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Lauren?
0:03:37 > 0:03:39Did she even sleep here?
0:03:39 > 0:03:42- Yeah, well, I thought she did. - Didn't you hear her come in?
0:03:42 > 0:03:44- No, cos I'm a heavy sleeper. You know that.- What about you?
0:03:44 > 0:03:47- I don't think so.- Peter Beale. So much for just friends!
0:03:47 > 0:03:50Do you think?
0:03:50 > 0:03:52- I'll pop round.- Go easy on him.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54He's a nice lad, isn't he? Might be good for her.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57Tell her to come and help me with the decorations.
0:03:57 > 0:04:02Message for Abs - tell her I'll be there after my shift at 8:00.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04Great. Dust off the red carpet, shall I?
0:04:07 > 0:04:11- Have you checked your bank statement lately?- No, why?
0:04:12 > 0:04:14No reason.
0:04:20 > 0:04:21We'll talk later.
0:04:34 > 0:04:37- Tan!- All right?
0:04:37 > 0:04:40- Good. How you doing?- OK. - What time's it kicking off tonight?
0:04:40 > 0:04:43- About six-ish. - I'll bring a bottle, then.
0:04:43 > 0:04:47Only if it's a bottle of pop. It's officially a booze-free zone.
0:04:47 > 0:04:51- Oh, right. Whose idea was that? - Lauren's.- Very good.- Mm.
0:04:51 > 0:04:54- See you then.- See you later. - Tanya! Tanya!- Joey.
0:04:54 > 0:04:58Will you say happy birthday to Abi for me, yeah?
0:04:58 > 0:05:02- You know you're not invited? - Didn't say I was coming, did I?
0:05:02 > 0:05:05- I don't want any drama. - Fine by me. How is, erm, Lauren?
0:05:05 > 0:05:09- Is she all right? - She's not your concern any more.
0:05:15 > 0:05:20- Where is she, Peter?- Who? - Lauren.- I don't understand.
0:05:20 > 0:05:21Yeah, yeah. Good one.
0:05:21 > 0:05:25- Lauren!- She's not here. - Look, you ain't in trouble.
0:05:25 > 0:05:26I just want to make sure she's OK.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29I'm not lying to you. Last night didn't go so well.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32What do you mean? She weren't drinking, was she?
0:05:32 > 0:05:35Don't give him a hard time. It's not his fault Lauren isn't interested.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40- Right, so where is she? - Well, we all ended up in the R&R
0:05:40 > 0:05:43and then she bailed early, went to go and meet some mates.
0:05:43 > 0:05:47- Which mates? - I don't know. Friends from college.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49Which friends from college? She ain't been in ages.
0:05:49 > 0:05:52She texted me and said she'd got there, so what's the big deal?
0:05:52 > 0:05:54Right, and how come she ain't answering her phone now, then?
0:05:54 > 0:05:56A 19 year old screening her dad's calls?
0:05:56 > 0:06:01As far as mysteries go, that's right up there with Roswell(!)
0:06:08 > 0:06:10That true?
0:06:11 > 0:06:15- What really happened? - I don't know, I wasn't keeping tabs.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18Anyway, she's done this before, she's going to be fine.
0:06:18 > 0:06:21- You don't know that. - She's going to thank me
0:06:21 > 0:06:24that I didn't land her in it with her dad.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26Look, if you're that worried, I'll call her. OK?
0:06:42 > 0:06:43Lauren, it's me.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48Look, everyone's really worried about you,
0:06:48 > 0:06:51so can you just call me when you get this?
0:06:51 > 0:06:54PHONE BEEPS
0:07:08 > 0:07:12Excuse me, can we do something about this rubbish, please?
0:07:12 > 0:07:14The market's open late this week and, weirdly,
0:07:14 > 0:07:16rats aren't a big selling point!
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Busy, then?
0:07:29 > 0:07:31How's that brother of yours?
0:07:31 > 0:07:35- He's well, thanks. And yours? - Yeah, he's good. Fighting fit.
0:07:37 > 0:07:41- Got a lot of family round here? - Yeah. It's my manor, innit?
0:07:41 > 0:07:45Plus your ex-wife, kids. Must get complicated.
0:07:45 > 0:07:49It's funny, innit? Exes don't worry me and Kirsty.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51She's got better at it, then?
0:07:53 > 0:07:56She used to be a terrible liar.
0:07:56 > 0:08:00Anyway, nice speaking to you.
0:08:10 > 0:08:12Cheers.
0:08:12 > 0:08:18- So, um, your ex, what does he want? - How should I know?
0:08:20 > 0:08:24- You all right?- Oh, yeah, totally flippin' marvellous(!)
0:08:24 > 0:08:27You know I'm a love machine, Peroxide!
0:08:27 > 0:08:30I'm a love machine, all right, girl? And I could get used to that.
0:08:30 > 0:08:34- Yeah, well, I hope you're up for round two later!- Oh, yes.
0:08:39 > 0:08:44They should wear a sign - at it like rabbits.
0:08:44 > 0:08:45Sickening, innit?
0:08:45 > 0:08:47You and Max ain't, then?
0:08:47 > 0:08:52Due on. The one thing my body knows how to do like flamin' clockwork.
0:08:57 > 0:09:01- Saw you were empty. - Is it the way I look?
0:09:01 > 0:09:02What?
0:09:02 > 0:09:06My face, is it gullible? Or is it my voice?
0:09:06 > 0:09:09Or is it just my general doormatty sort of attitude?
0:09:09 > 0:09:11You're funny.
0:09:13 > 0:09:14Why did you say you'd met me before?
0:09:14 > 0:09:19- Truth is, that girl with the red hair and the attitude...- Kat?
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Yeah. She frightened the life out of me.
0:09:21 > 0:09:25There she was, yapping in my face, so I did what any bloke would do,
0:09:25 > 0:09:27trapped in a corner, I threw her a bone.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30Plus, Alice, I wanted to meet you.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34You never actually told me how you and my dad became friends.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Mind if I...?
0:09:40 > 0:09:42You're going to laugh at this.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45Your dad gave me a black eye.
0:09:45 > 0:09:47- I said "friends".- I deserved it.
0:09:47 > 0:09:50I was cheating on a game of black jack. He called me up on it.
0:09:50 > 0:09:52After that, we set up a scam together.
0:09:52 > 0:09:54Took 200 quid off one of the screws.
0:09:54 > 0:09:56He didn't have a clue.
0:09:58 > 0:10:02Truth is, behind all the dodgy deals and scams,
0:10:02 > 0:10:04your dad had a heart of gold.
0:10:04 > 0:10:06He used to look out for me.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10There was one guy, scary fella, he had it in for me.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13Must've looked at him funny or something,
0:10:13 > 0:10:15but your dad weren't scared of him.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18He stuck his neck out for me, stopped me from getting a hiding.
0:10:18 > 0:10:22I said after that, to thank him, I'd bring him something
0:10:22 > 0:10:25from the outside world, you know, cigarettes, booze...
0:10:27 > 0:10:29You'll never guess what he asked for!
0:10:29 > 0:10:31- Pickled herring? - THEY LAUGH
0:10:33 > 0:10:35What college mates? She hasn't got any college mates.
0:10:35 > 0:10:37Well, why isn't she answering her phone, then?
0:10:37 > 0:10:40She checks it every five minutes normally, doesn't she?
0:10:40 > 0:10:42I wish you'd rung me, actually, sooner...
0:10:42 > 0:10:46OK. I've got to go, then. All right, bye. Bye.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49- There we are, look.- Where's Lauren?
0:10:49 > 0:10:52She's just running a few last-minute errands.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55- How did it go with Peter? - I don't know.
0:10:55 > 0:10:59You know what your sister's like!
0:10:59 > 0:11:03Yeah, I remember when I was little, wishing she was...different.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06That she'd suddenly wake up one morning and be, like,
0:11:06 > 0:11:10let's talk about animals and dresses and plait each other's hair.
0:11:10 > 0:11:14Me and Rainie never had much in common, actually.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16But I still love her, though.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20I mean, she'll be all right, won't she?
0:11:22 > 0:11:24- Yes, of course she will.- Yeah.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27I've got to nip out, darlin'.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30OK? I won't be long, so...you carry on.
0:11:32 > 0:11:35- I'm jealous. I'd love to have a big family round me.- Yeah, it is nice.
0:11:35 > 0:11:40- Most of the time.- You know your Uncle Max is with an ex of mine?
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Kirsty, really?
0:11:42 > 0:11:45There's no hard feelings. It's just funny,
0:11:45 > 0:11:50Derek said he was a bit of a player. I don't mean anything by that.
0:11:50 > 0:11:51I'm just still a bit protective of her.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54He's got a whole other family, hasn't he?
0:11:54 > 0:11:57And from what I've seen, it ain't all peace and love.
0:11:57 > 0:12:01- Hardly surprising. - Oh, yeah? Why's that?
0:12:01 > 0:12:02Sorry, it's none of my business.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05No, it's fine. It's common knowledge, really.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07Uncle Max and Tanya were going to get married, for the second time,
0:12:07 > 0:12:09and then Kirsty showed up.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11Alice?
0:12:11 > 0:12:15This is my infamous brother, Joey. Joey, this is Carl. He knew Dad.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17Oh, right. Speaks volumes.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20Yeah. I've heard a lot about you.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23- Mm.- Listen, I need to get going. I've been here ages.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26- That's for the tea. - Hey, don't insult me.
0:12:26 > 0:12:30- Thank you. See you soon!- See ya.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38I don't know what your game is, mate,
0:12:38 > 0:12:42but make sure you leave my sister out of it. Do you understand me?
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Your dad was right about you.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47Yeah? Meaning?
0:12:47 > 0:12:51He said you'd be a good-looking lad. He was very proud.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56You remind me of him. Looks aside.
0:12:56 > 0:12:57Hmm!
0:13:10 > 0:13:11What?
0:13:11 > 0:13:17Nothing. I was just wondering how long, you know,
0:13:17 > 0:13:23- it took you to get pregnant? - Oh, I dunno. It just happened.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25So it wasn't planned?
0:13:27 > 0:13:29Typical, innit? It's always the way.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31You don't want to get pregnant,
0:13:31 > 0:13:34all you've got to do is look at a bloke and, hey presto.
0:13:34 > 0:13:38And then you do and it's the right guy, and it's the right time,
0:13:38 > 0:13:42and suddenly, it's like it's going to take a miracle.
0:13:42 > 0:13:47Not that I'm worried. I mean, me and Alfie have barely even started.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52- All right?- Yeah. All right? Just looking for Lauren.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55- She ain't answering her phone. - It's probably on silent.
0:13:55 > 0:13:59Nah, Tanya's right. She's always got it glued to her hand.
0:14:01 > 0:14:02I'll see you later.
0:14:07 > 0:14:11If you're going to have another go, Tanya, I ain't got time.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14- I've got to get ready for work. - No, wait, this is important.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16Earlier, you were asking me about Lauren. Why was that?
0:14:16 > 0:14:18Were you out with her last night?
0:14:18 > 0:14:20Yeah. I might have seen her. Why?
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Well, talk to me... Look, she's not answering her phone,
0:14:23 > 0:14:26I'm starting to get a bit worried here. Did something happen, or...?
0:14:29 > 0:14:31Yeah, she was drinking.
0:14:50 > 0:14:53PHONE RINGS It's not mine, it's not mine.
0:14:54 > 0:14:58- Hello?- Who's that?
0:14:58 > 0:15:00- It's the Assistant Market Inspector. - Who?
0:15:00 > 0:15:02'I just found this phone in a bag'
0:15:02 > 0:15:04outside a club called R&R in Walford.
0:15:04 > 0:15:06Right. Where's Lauren?
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Is that the owner of the phone?
0:15:08 > 0:15:10Yeah, Lauren. Lauren Branning.
0:15:10 > 0:15:12Is that Max?
0:15:13 > 0:15:14Who's that, Tamwar?
0:15:19 > 0:15:22- He was no Bobby Moore, was he? - One word, mate - Hoddle!
0:15:22 > 0:15:25Hoddle! No, this is a house pub. There you go.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29Good timing. What you having?
0:15:29 > 0:15:32A drink. On my own.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34Very sensible. Something tells me that ain't your style.
0:15:34 > 0:15:38Let me guess, V and T?
0:15:39 > 0:15:43- Something tells me you're trouble. - Double? Get the lady a double.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45No, mate, that's not what she said.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48I can speak for myself, thank you, Alfie.
0:15:48 > 0:15:52I'll have a white wine, large.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55And one drink doesn't make us friends.
0:15:57 > 0:15:59Large wine for the lady.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04- You should've been looking out for her!- I thought I was
0:16:04 > 0:16:07making things worse. I can't get involved with her no more, Tanya,
0:16:07 > 0:16:10- you know that.- Max! Max! She was drunk.
0:16:10 > 0:16:11Apparently, she was drinking she's just disappeared...
0:16:11 > 0:16:14- What are you doing with that? - Tamwar found it.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17- Where?- Just outside R&R.
0:16:17 > 0:16:20Look, it's got her phone in it and everything.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23But Lucy said, she said she texted her.
0:16:30 > 0:16:34Whoa, sweetheart, someone pregnant shouldn't be carrying this load.
0:16:34 > 0:16:36- Here, come on.- I'm fine.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38I'm sorry, it's just...
0:16:38 > 0:16:41No, you look great. You don't look like you're pregnant.
0:16:41 > 0:16:43You've got the old abs of steel going on there.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45Let's talk about YOUR anatomy, shall we, Alfie?
0:16:45 > 0:16:48- What are you, six months gone? - Let me tell you something, Kathleen,
0:16:48 > 0:16:50there's a six pack trying to fight its way out here. All right?
0:16:50 > 0:16:52SHE LAUGHS
0:16:52 > 0:16:53All right!
0:16:53 > 0:16:55It's fine. Steak and kidney?
0:16:55 > 0:16:57Oh... I'm... I'm sorry.
0:16:57 > 0:16:58Are you OK?
0:17:00 > 0:17:02Erm... Can I take my break now?
0:17:02 > 0:17:04Yeah, of course you can, sweetheart.
0:17:04 > 0:17:08- KNOCKING - Peter! Lucy!
0:17:09 > 0:17:11- Just go home. - No, I'll help find her.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14I'll just sack off work. Just tell me what to do.
0:17:14 > 0:17:16Do what she said - go home!
0:17:21 > 0:17:25Come on, Lucy, it's only us! Please, we just want to talk to you!
0:17:25 > 0:17:28You shouldn't have lied.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30Well, you could've told him about her drinking.
0:17:30 > 0:17:34KNOCKING CONTINUES
0:17:39 > 0:17:42Look, it is not our fault Lauren's gone off on a bender.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45Text you, did she? Funny that, innit?
0:17:45 > 0:17:47Cos we founds her phone outside R&R.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50You were having a go at Peter and it wasn't his fault.
0:17:50 > 0:17:51What you talking about, ain't his fault?
0:17:51 > 0:17:54He was meant to look after her! What did I tell you
0:17:54 > 0:17:56- about letting her have a drink? - What did you expect?
0:17:56 > 0:17:59- Lauren's out of control, no-one could stop her.- He's right.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02If she wants to act like a slapper, that's her choice, she's not a kid!
0:18:02 > 0:18:03- What are you talking about? She ain't a slapper!- All right.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06Calm down! Listen to me, Lucy.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09My daughter - that's my little girl -
0:18:09 > 0:18:12she doesn't know what she's doing. She's ill. She's vulnerable.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15That's why she needed her friends.
0:18:15 > 0:18:19So what are we saying here, she went off with someone?
0:18:19 > 0:18:21- I don't know.- Lucy, what happened?
0:18:23 > 0:18:26Yes, she met a bloke, but I didn't even see him properly, I swear.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29- Right, that's it. Come on, come on. - What?! What're you doing?
0:18:29 > 0:18:31- Hey, come on.- Get your hands off me!
0:18:31 > 0:18:33We're going to the police station. You can tell them
0:18:33 > 0:18:35- everything you know.- All right.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38I thought Lauren said she was going to be here at six.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41- She did. - Always first at a party, me.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44Mind you, I shan't stop late. I've got to get up early,
0:18:44 > 0:18:48what, with me work, I've got me church warden duties,
0:18:48 > 0:18:52- and the vicar, he relies on me. - DOOR OPENS
0:18:52 > 0:18:53Mum?
0:18:56 > 0:18:59Not really going to make me drink this, are you?
0:19:02 > 0:19:04Wait there, all right? By that motor.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07- Let me get my car keys. - Tan, is Abi at yours?
0:19:08 > 0:19:09Yeah. Yeah, she is.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Go on, go home, no need to worry Abi, is there?
0:19:14 > 0:19:17- No, I want to come.- Babe, there's nothing you can do, is there?
0:19:17 > 0:19:19I've got it under control.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22Max, what if something's happened to her?
0:19:22 > 0:19:25- That man, he could be anyone, couldn't he?- Tan, she'll be fine.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28She'll be fine. Probably on her way back here now.
0:19:28 > 0:19:31I'm just covering all the angles, ain't I?
0:19:31 > 0:19:35If I get any news, I'll call you, OK?
0:19:35 > 0:19:38Trust me. She'll turn up, she'll be hung-over.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42She'll be wondering what all the fuss was about... I promise.
0:19:46 > 0:19:48Take that.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13- All right, babe? Lauren's gone missing.- What?
0:20:13 > 0:20:16She went off with some geezer, left her bag in the street,
0:20:16 > 0:20:21- no-one's heard from her since. Have you seen my car keys?- No.
0:20:21 > 0:20:22I'm so sorry, Max.
0:20:24 > 0:20:28- I've got to go to the police station, report her missing.- Mm-hm.
0:20:31 > 0:20:33You been drinking?
0:20:33 > 0:20:35- What? No...- Come here.
0:20:35 > 0:20:39- HE SNIFFS - Yes, you have. Smells like whisky.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41- It was just a sip. - What're you talking about?
0:20:41 > 0:20:43A sip, babe? You're pregnant!
0:20:43 > 0:20:47- I'm sorry, it was just a moment of madness.- What's the matter with you?
0:20:47 > 0:20:49My daughter's got a drink problem, she's gone missing,
0:20:49 > 0:20:52and you're sitting around here drinking whisky?! You're not giving
0:20:52 > 0:20:55any thought to our baby, are you? It's unbelievable!
0:20:55 > 0:20:57- I'm sorry, Max. - Seriously, Kirsty, what chance is
0:20:57 > 0:20:59that kid going to have?
0:21:05 > 0:21:07LOUD MUSIC AND CHATTER
0:21:09 > 0:21:11- ABI:- Mum, is that you?
0:21:11 > 0:21:13Yes, love!
0:21:14 > 0:21:16Where have you been?
0:21:16 > 0:21:18You look gorgeous!
0:21:18 > 0:21:22- Jay said that he saw Lucy getting into Dad's car.- Yeah?
0:21:22 > 0:21:25Yeah, he needed to go and pick up some paperwork.
0:21:25 > 0:21:29- Lucy wanted a lift or something, so...- Where's Lauren?
0:21:29 > 0:21:31She's on her way. She's on her way. ..Hello, Dot.
0:21:31 > 0:21:32What aren't you telling me?
0:21:32 > 0:21:35KNOCK ON DOOR Nothing.
0:21:38 > 0:21:40- Hello.- You all right?
0:21:40 > 0:21:45Here she is, the birthday girl, looking like a film star, no less.
0:21:45 > 0:21:48Now, I remember when she used to play Pass The Parcel, don't you?
0:21:48 > 0:21:51Go and get Jack a drink, I'll go and get changed.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01What is it? What's happened?
0:22:01 > 0:22:05He was so angry, the way he looked at me...
0:22:05 > 0:22:06Max, you told him?
0:22:06 > 0:22:09No, he caught me drinking. He said the baby don't stand a chance.
0:22:09 > 0:22:14- There is no baby!- I know! I ain't completely losing it.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16Well, I might be, the amount of times I've told you
0:22:16 > 0:22:21to just come clean! Yes, he'll be angry, and you might split up,
0:22:21 > 0:22:25but you stand more chance of making it if you tell him the truth.
0:22:25 > 0:22:29I know... I will. Once I'm pregnant.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33Right. So what're you going to tell him?
0:22:33 > 0:22:38Maybe that... Maybe that I lost it. The first one.
0:22:38 > 0:22:41Maybe I was too cut up about it... I dunno.
0:22:41 > 0:22:44You need to sort this out,
0:22:44 > 0:22:47because you're going to come seriously unstuck!
0:22:59 > 0:23:02- What's wrong?- Nothing.
0:23:02 > 0:23:05You can't fool me, Kirst, I know you inside out.
0:23:06 > 0:23:07Yeah, but not any more.
0:23:07 > 0:23:12- Tanya, isn't it, his ex?- So?
0:23:12 > 0:23:15That's the thing with chemistry, innit? Never goes away, that spark.
0:23:16 > 0:23:18No-one else stands a chance.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21You don't know what you're talking about.
0:23:21 > 0:23:25You're hurting. I can see it in your eyes.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27You're wrong.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30All right. Fair enough.
0:23:33 > 0:23:38Hey, you're enjoying this for now, but I'm a patient man,
0:23:38 > 0:23:43and you will come back to me, eventually. We both know that.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57- She's not coming, is she? - Yes, of course she is.
0:23:57 > 0:24:00- Then why are you acting so weird? - I'm not.- Mum!
0:24:00 > 0:24:04- Abi, she will be here. All right? - Have you spoken to her?
0:24:04 > 0:24:06Shall I get the cake ready? You know, light the candles?
0:24:06 > 0:24:10- Yes, great. Good idea, Dot. - Mum, I asked you a question.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12- Don't tell me, Lauren again? - Not now, Mum.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15Oh, right. Is she drunk? Is she over at Dad's?
0:24:15 > 0:24:18- Has something happened? - Shall we open the presents?
0:24:18 > 0:24:21No, no, no. Why did Dad go off with Lucy? Has something happened?
0:24:21 > 0:24:24- No, nothing has happened. - Is she OK? Mum, where is she?
0:24:24 > 0:24:27I don't know. All right? I don't...
0:24:27 > 0:24:29I don't know where she is.
0:24:29 > 0:24:32What do you mean, you don't know? How...
0:24:32 > 0:24:34DOOR SLAMS
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Oh, Lauren! Oh, thank God!
0:24:36 > 0:24:41I've been worried sick. Oh, thank God!
0:24:41 > 0:24:43Are you all right? Where have you been?
0:24:43 > 0:24:46What's wrong with your eyes?
0:24:46 > 0:24:47Where is she?
0:24:47 > 0:24:51What's happened, Lauren? Lauren...
0:24:51 > 0:24:53Happy Birthday, Abi.
0:24:54 > 0:24:56What's happened, Lauren?
0:24:57 > 0:25:00I haven't got you a present, but I'm going to get you one.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03- She don't look right, man.- Shh! - Why is your skin that colour?
0:25:05 > 0:25:06She needs to see a doctor.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09Mum, call an ambulance, please.
0:25:09 > 0:25:11No, I don't need an ambulance, I need a drink!
0:25:13 > 0:25:16It's all right, Oscar. Just thirsty.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21Excuse me.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24- Where's all the drink gone? - Come and sit down.
0:25:24 > 0:25:27- No, I don't need to sit down! - SHE MOANS IN PAIN
0:25:27 > 0:25:29It's all right. It's all right, darlin'.
0:25:29 > 0:25:31Do you need to be sick? Do you want some water?
0:25:31 > 0:25:34- Sit her down.- Come and sit down. - What's happening to her?
0:25:34 > 0:25:37I don't know... Just take deep breaths.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39Call your dad. Call your dad.
0:25:39 > 0:25:42- Ambulance is on its way. - How long? How long?- How long?
0:25:42 > 0:25:45I don't need an ambulance, I need a drink, Mum!
0:25:45 > 0:25:48- They'll be here as soon as they can. - We can't just wait.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50- We've got to do something! - Lauren, come on.
0:25:50 > 0:25:51We'll take you in the car.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54- Up you get.- I don't think that's a good idea.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56Them paramedics, they know what they're doing.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58Dot, look at her! Look at the state of her!
0:25:58 > 0:26:01- We can't just wait.- Come on. - All right, darlin', I've got you.
0:26:01 > 0:26:03They're only joking. Good boy.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06- Let's go and have a nice biscuit or something.- Dex...

0:26:11 > 0:26:12LAUREN CRIES OUT
0:26:12 > 0:26:14You OK? All right.

0:26:19 > 0:26:22Nice and slow... That's it.
0:26:22 > 0:26:25- Oh! Have you got her? She's going. - I've got her.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28Just sit there. You wait there, I'll get the car.
0:26:37 > 0:26:39What's happened, Tan?
0:26:39 > 0:26:40Is she all right?
0:26:40 > 0:26:42Mum... Mum...
0:26:42 > 0:26:44SHE MOANS
0:26:44 > 0:26:46Mum, I'm scared!
0:26:48 > 0:26:49OK.
