SHE SIGHS

SHE SNIFFS

Right, are you going to tell him or what?

It's his engagement party.

Well, what if somebody else tells him that you're seeing Mick

and that you're going to his wedding?

You've got to tell him, and soon as.

MUSIC: Downtown by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis

-Oh, Dean, listen...

-In a minute, yeah.

Where's Sharon?

I don't know. Home, I guess.

Right. You should call her.

Oi, where've you been, and where's Ronnie?

Come with me, all right?

-Come on.

-All right.

-Where are you going?

-Work, babes.

Let me guess - don't wait up.

No, no, no, no. You'd better wait up.

All right, so, off we go, then.

I'm not going.

Well, we're not staying here. Everyone's leaving.

Let me show you how the other half lives. Come on.

Are you all right? See you later!

I can explain.

Will, can you go and wash your hands, please?

And, Dad, would you make some toast?

-Mum, are we staying here tonight?

-Will.

-Is it stolen?

-No, it's not like that.

-Did you pay for it?

-Well, no, but...

Well, then, it IS like that. This is Janet's home.

I know, I know. I'm just helping someone out, that's all.

Oh, let me guess - Phil.

-I can't say...

-It's got to be a Mitchell, hasn't it?

It's Ronnie.

I'm going back to Broadstairs.

-You can't, it's too late.

-Well, I can't stay here, Billy.

Look, I know this doesn't look good,

and if I'm honest it probably AIN'T good,

but this is a one-off. It's not how I am now.

And I know they take advantage of me, you're right,

but I love our kids, Hon.

I just want to be a good dad to them,

and I've been doing it, haven't I, with Janet?

All I'm asking is that you just try and look a bit closer, will you?

And you'll see it.

I promise.

Mummy!

Hello, my gorgeous girl. Come here, then.

Mum, are we staying?

I didn't know what to do. She was going mental...

Ronnie, what have you done?

Why is he here?

I heard the noise. I'm just worried about you, Ron.

-Now, what is this? What's happened?

-SHE did.

Well, is there any point in me asking why?

Just know she'll make it right, and if she doesn't, then I will.

I don't need your help, thank you.

Look at the state of you, Ronnie. Look, get off home.

We'll sort it, but you'll pay.

Let me take you home.

What about our engagement party, babe?

I can't go there, Roxy. I can't go back.

Ronnie, this is killing us.

I know we haven't got along in the past but, please,

tonight is Roxy's big night, and I know how much you love her.

What?

I should've told you about me and Shirl.

I'm trying to make an effort with her.

Yeah, you should've.

Are you OK?

I'd like to unpack.

I promise you, she was sound asleep at half-seven, as arranged.

Oh, hello.

Sorry. Les, Honey. Honey, Les.

-Hiya.

-Hello.

-PHONE BEEPS

Stupid thing! I can't figure out how to turn it off.

It's so counter-intrusive. I'm just going to answer it, sorry.

You don't have to do that now, do you? I'll put the kettle on, eh?

I don't know if we're staying yet, Billy.

'You have one new message.'

What?

That'll be my message she's listening to.

Oh, so what?

What? I was lagging when I left it, weren't I?

Either I'm 'fessing up about all of this or it's a...

-What?

-An adult message.

-Eh?

-Oh!

-Billy?

-Oh, I shall be in the bedroom.

-Right.

-Right.

That was Will's agent.

She's not renewing his contract.

No!

-Oh, Hon. I'm so sorry, darling.

-That's it, no more Canada.

No.

So, does that mean you'll be going back to Broadstairs, then?

Or maybe somewhere else?

Mum!

In here.

Oh, I don't know how to tell him, Billy.

It's going to break his heart.

Let's do it together, eh?

Yeah.

There you go.

Here, now's your chance.

Wait a minute.

Oh, hey, man. Are you good?

Yeah, good.

Good, man. Good, good... That's good.

Where's Kim?

Erm, she's gone, I think.

-Fats, can we...?

-Yeah, yeah, course, course.

-Sorry, I've got to do this.

-Yeah, yeah.

-Sorry, I'm just going to... Is this on?

-Yeah.

Hello, oh...

Hi, everyone. Look, I won't take up too much of your time, I promise.

I just wanted to thank you all for coming here

to celebrate with my beautiful fiancee and me.

CHEERING

You like that one, yeah? I mean, have a look at her.

Look at her. Isn't she amazing?

I mean, she's pretty fit an' all, right?

Shut up. Shut up!

She is! Rox, I don't know what I did to deserve you,

but I think we'll all agree that I've had an absolute result.

On a serious note, it does mean a lot for me

and Rox to be surrounded by people that care about us.

Friends, family...

It really might be the only thing that matters at all,

so to have Ronnie here showing her love and support, it's...

it's very special.

Very special, but very surprising,

because half an hour ago she tried to pay me to leave.

LAUGHTER

That's not a joke.

It's true. She offered me money to never see Roxy ever again.

She even recorded me to try and catch me out.

-It's not true.

-It is true, and it happened at the Albert.

When I said no, she smashed the place up.

You should all know that she was also responsible for

having my salon robbed of all its equipment as well, so...

What?

Oh, it's rubbish.

I mean, she set herself a goal, really,

to make me look like the bad person,

ruin my life, and ruin my business,

and in turn ruin Roxy's life as well.

Why don't you shut up?

I'm telling you, shut up!

You know what? You are unbelievable.

Roxy. Roxy!

I'm so sorry, sweetheart.

But, on the plus side,

I get to see a lot more of you, don't I?

We can do stuff together, as a family.

I'll take you over to Upton Park.

I don't like football.

Well, that's all right. Neither do West Ham.

Listen, boy, I've really missed you,

and so has your sister,

so what do you reckon, eh?

Me and you take a stack of your photos,

jump on the bus,

and go and knock on every modelling agent's door in Soho,

and I guarantee you,

we'll have half a dozen of them fighting over you

by the end of the day.

Thanks, Dad.

No need to thank me. I'm taking 10%.

Nah, not really.

Anyway, it's time for bed, you.

Go and get your sister, and we'll all brush our teeth, eh?

I think you've got some jimjams out the back there.

I mean, that's, of course, if you're staying...

Toothbrushes, come on.

-Do as your dad says.

-Go on, quickly.

-PHONE BEEPS

-Oh, shut up!

Sorry to interrupt, I just wondered

if I could just inquire as to the sleeping arrangements for tonight?

Yeah, yeah, Will's in with Janet,

Honey's on the couch, so you're in with me.

On-on-on the spare mattress?

-No, Will's got that.

-Ah.

Oh, don't worry, Les, it'll only be for one night.

It'll be cosy.

No spooning, eh?

Now, do us all a fry-up in the morning, yeah?

CHILDREN GIGGLE Kids, come on!

It's getting late. We need to brush our teeth.

Why would you humiliate me like that?

Why wouldn't you just come to me?

Because everyone needed to know, otherwise she'll just keep on doing it.

She's trying to control you, babe,

and until you stop letting that happen,

you're never going to be happy, and I think you know that.

INTERCOM BUZZES

It's completely up to you.

Whatever you decide to do, I will support you.

INTERCOM BUZZES AGAIN

Yes?

-DOOR SLAMS

-Look at this!

SHE GIGGLES

So, what do you think?

Yeah, yeah, well...

-Mmm.

-It's a bit tacky for my taste.

Well, off you go, then.

I don't want you to be here when my husband comes home,

if you know what I mean.

SHE PURRS

Well, I'll be just across the square then, Kim,

for when it all goes... pineapple-shaped.

Well, thanks for your help and your vote of confidence.

You know what?

This is a happy place,

so why don't we have a little fun...

..before I put you to bed? Huh?

MUSIC: Hey Ya! by OutKast

# One, two, three, uh My baby don't mess around

# Because she loves me so And this I know for sure... #

-Yeah!

-SHE HUMS ALONG

Why, Ron?

Why would you do that?

Because he's no good for you.

I think that's my decision, don't you?

I'm your sister.

It's my job to keep you out of trouble.

It's my job to look after you.

-SHE SIGHS

-To look after me?

Yes!

To look after me, not to control me.

That's exactly what he's doing! He's a maniac.

Yeah, but you're the one who's trashing bars.

You're the one who's ripping off the salon,

and that's my livelihood.

That's the only thing keeping me and Amy going right now,

and for some crazy reason you can't understand that.

And all Dean's doing is he's supporting me.

No, he's turning you against me.

Why can't you see that?

It's not a competition!

Ron...

You're my sister, and I love you.

-I love you too.

-Please let me finish.

I really don't want to choose between you and him, OK?

I really don't,

but if I have to, if you make me...

SHE EXHALES

You're not supposed to touch the Koran unless you've got clean hands.

-Oh!

-Sorry.

Bit of a battle getting Kamil off the laptop and into bed.

No, it's cool. These things are immaculate. I could do surgery.

More a special kind of clean.

Oh, like God clean?

God clean, yeah.

What? Every time you touch it?

We're supposed to, yeah.

If I'm honest, that sounds pretty inconvenient.

It can be a bit of a pain.

I got given that when I started madrasah.

I can give you one, if you want?

How many do you have?

A few. I could give you one with some slightly

more modern translations.

Yeah, I'd really like that.

And then I have to have a bath every time I touch it?

Every single time, yeah.

How come you've marked that page?

That's Surah An-Nisa. It's my favourite surah.

WaAAbudoo Allaha walatushrikoo bihi shay-an wabilwalidayni

ihsananwabithee alqurba walyatama walmasakeeniwaljari thee

alqurba waljarialjunubi wassahibi biljanbi wabniassabeeli.

What does it mean?

"Worship Allah and associate nothing with Him.

"To parents do good, to relatives, orphans, the needy,

"the neighbour who is near of kin, the neighbour who is

"a stranger, to the companion at your side and to the traveller."

That, to me, is what Islam is about. Be kind to people,

family and strangers alike. And love them.

-All unpacked?

-Mm-hm.

How was the wedding fair?

Fine.

Yeah? Get any ideas?

Look, I'm happy for you, Mick, all right? She's your mum.

She should be in your life.

But?

But I don't want everything else that comes with it.

-You know what I mean.

-Course I know...

Excuse me? Can I have a drink, please?

What are you after?

I'd like a vodka.

How about a nice cup of coffee? Why don't you go over there,

relax, sit down...?

No, you're all right, Mick, I'll have a vodka, please.

Let's keep our wits about us, yeah?

Nice calm cup of coffee.

Go over there, I'll bring it to you.

-Late one?

-Yeah.

Got everything you need?

Thanks for the outfit.

You look better in it than I ever did.

Listen...I know how much you enjoyed it over there.

And now what? Back to Broadstairs with two kids.

Two kids, yeah.

Oh, yeah, right, cos Janet will be going with you, won't she?

And that's...that's good.

I just hope that after all of this,

maybe you could get back here now and again.

Or I can come down there.

Yeah, of course.

I just want to be there for them.

These last few years, I've not really been proud of myself.

After you left, I did some stupid things, you know?

Nicking post...

I know, I know, it's all my own fault

and I know I've got form.

And I know I should have been more honest with you back then,

about Jase,

the money.

I just got it all wrong.

All I was trying to do was keep our family together.

My little family.

Anyway, for what it's worth,

I really need you to know that I'm

never going to be that person again.

I just want to work hard and love my kids.

OUR kids.

Because they are...

..they are something else.

They're pretty special, aren't they?

Honey, they're brilliant. You should be well proud.

And you, Billy.

Nah...

You're the one.

Anyway...if you need anything just give me a shout.

-I'm just...through there.

-Yeah, I will, thanks.

Right then...

-Night.

-Goodnight, Billy.

Why are you telling me now?

Because I don't want to lie to you.

Any more. You don't want to lie any more.

No.

I think it's fantastic.

-Really?

-Well, it makes you happy, doesn't it?

Yeah, it does.

Why would I want to stop you being happy?

He's...

He's asked us to go to the wedding. Him and Linda's wedding.

Great. You're his mum. You should be there.

You all right with that, son?

I'm fine. Honestly. Everyone deserves a chance at happiness.

I mean, Roxy and I found it, didn't we, babe?

Yeah.

So why shouldn't you and Mick?

-OK.

-Great!

Is that it? Because my fiancee and I were just about...

Yeah, yeah. We'll leave you to it.

Les, that's my side.

Oh! Understood.

Finally get someone into bed with me and it's my boss.

An undertaker. That feels about right.

Would you prefer it was someone else?

I'd prefer if it was ANYONE else, Les. No offence.

A recipient of a certain voicemail message, perhaps?

If you want to talk...

No... No. Let's just get this over with, yeah?

Very well.

Goodnight, Billy.

Night, Les.

Oh!

Honey wants to take Janet back to Broadstairs.

I see.

She's right. I mean, she's her mum, they should all be there,

you know, together.

-But it leaves you...

-Exactly.

What do you want?

-Don't matter what I want.

-Come on, Billy.

I want my family back here, in this flat with me.

I want it like it was in Canada.

Like it was tonight. And I want Honey lying there instead of you.

No offence.

I don't... I don't want to want that,

because if I do, all that's going to happen is that I'll get stung again.

You should tell Honey how you feel.

No, no, she's not interested.

You might be surprised.

No.

Best for her to go back home. I can visit whenever I can.

Oh, for goodness' sake, Billy! Why do you think I am here?

Because I wasn't honest with Pam.

You should tell Honey how you feel, or you will regret it for ever.

That, I can guarantee.

MUSIC: Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye

DOOR OPENS

Honey...I'm home!

THEY SCREAM

Give it back!

Where's Vincent?

He's at work. What are you doing here?

I live here! What are YOU doing here?

-I live here!

-Vincent never told me that.

He didn't tell me that either.

So we're both going to be...

Well, I hope you can get yourself some decent knickers.

I've got you, Roxy.

And I've got you, Dean.

Dean, you're hurting me. Dean...

-Dean!

-What?

What are you doing? You're going to give me marks, you pillock.

I'm sorry, babe.

-It's all right.

-You OK?

I didn't mean I want to stop.

What's the matter?

Dean, what's the matter?

Honey, I, erm...

I just need to say something, because if I don't say it now

then I'm probably going to lie there all night regretting it.

Probably regretting it for the rest of my life, if I'm honest...

-Billy.

-No, no, don't, please let me finish here,

otherwise I'll lose my bottle.

Billy, I've just listened to your message.

Oh, no.

Look, erm...

I'm sorry, OK?

I was really drunk.

I didn't know what I was saying, so just forget it, OK?

-And I'll go back to bed.

-Billy...

..I loved it.

All right... Is this really happening?

Yeah.

What did I say in that message?

You don't remember?

Not exactly, no.

-Did I?

-Yeah!

And I want you to.

All right, then.

Where are you going?

It doesn't matter.

Is this about your mum? Is this about Mick's wedding, Dean?

I'm sorting it. Stay here.

Dean!

You all right? How's Mum?

Yeah. What you got there?

It's just something Tam lent me.

He's a lovely kid.

Dean, wait a minute.

What?

That's actually quite nice coffee.

Yeah, I roast my own beans.

No, you don't.

I know how you feel. I understand.

You've got to let it go.

Is that what you're doing?

I made a decision that I was going to be there for L,

be a good husband.

I don't have a Linda, do I?

Well, you need to find something else.

We're closed!

-This won't take long. I'm not looking for any trouble.

-Roxy.

I don't want to talk about it, OK?

It doesn't have to be like this.

Dean, let's just leave it, yeah?

What have you done to your wrist?

Nothing.

What's he done to you?

No... No, no, that's not...

You know what, I didn't know you'd be here. I shouldn't have come.

So what are you waiting for? Go on.

I hear you've been taking walks with Mum.

Who's told you that?

She did. I just want to say that it's OK.

You don't have to hide it from me. I think it's terrific.

She should be at your wedding.

-Is that right?

-Yeah. She's going to be at mine.

It's only fair. People deserve to be close to their family.

Isn't that right, Ronnie?

Excuse me.

Just wanted to clear the air, that was it.

GLASS SMASHES

Did I scare you?

No.

Stay away from my sister.

You're obsessed with smashing glasses.

I mean it, Dean.

Ronnie, come on. We're getting married and moving away.

Just accept that.

You really are scared, aren't you? That's why you're running away.

Because that's what little boys do, they run away.

Seriously, I'm not going to warn you again.

If I was you, I'd back down.
