0:00:55 > 0:00:57'Hi, you've reached Steven Beale.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59'Really sorry I can't get to the phone,
0:00:59 > 0:01:03'but if you leave a message, I'll get back to you as soon as I can.'
0:01:18 > 0:01:20There you are.
0:01:20 > 0:01:24- Been looking for you.- Problem?
0:01:24 > 0:01:27Just had some geezer on the blower from Grafton Hill.
0:01:27 > 0:01:30And apparently they want someone from the Vic to make a speech
0:01:30 > 0:01:35tomorrow, you know, at this Walford In Bloom. Just a few words.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37Declaring it open and...
0:01:38 > 0:01:42I would do it, Fi, it's just, I'll be straight with you -
0:01:42 > 0:01:44my nut's all over the gaff at the moment
0:01:44 > 0:01:46and I'd probably say something stupid and, you know...
0:01:46 > 0:01:49So you want me to do it?
0:01:49 > 0:01:50Well, nothing fazes you, does it?
0:01:50 > 0:01:52Nothing.
0:01:55 > 0:01:57Sweet.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02- I'm meeting James first thing Monday morning.- James?
0:02:02 > 0:02:06Yeah, you met him at that council do I took you to. Doctor from Barts.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09- The ear, nose and throat guy? - Yeah, but they've got a cancer centre there.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11It's one of the best ones in the country.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14He's arranged for me to talk to a specialist. It's a mate of his.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17Look, I know it's a long shot, but it's worth a try, isn't it?
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Don't tell me you haven't been doing any different cos
0:02:19 > 0:02:23when I was looking for his contact details on the computer, I could see all the web pages you've been to.
0:02:23 > 0:02:28- Treatments for this, drugs for that. - Yeah, well, the more we know, the more it might help, eh?
0:02:31 > 0:02:32Abs? You up there?
0:02:32 > 0:02:35'Um, I'm in bed.'
0:02:35 > 0:02:37You all right?
0:02:37 > 0:02:39'Yeah, I'm fine.'
0:02:39 > 0:02:42You were in bed when I came home at lunchtime. You sure?
0:02:42 > 0:02:44'Yeah, I'm fine.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47- GIGGLES - 'Just stop fussing.'
0:02:47 > 0:02:49Nice for some(!)
0:03:00 > 0:03:02It's all right. She's gone.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07- What time is it?- I think we lost track of time a bit.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11What?
0:03:16 > 0:03:17Evening?
0:03:21 > 0:03:24Give us a large white wine, will you?
0:03:24 > 0:03:27- We're doing a waitressing service now, are we?- It's not for a punter.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29Oh.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31For you.
0:03:31 > 0:03:32So?
0:03:32 > 0:03:36Well, you was having a little skive in the Square earlier.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38I'm entitled to the odd break, aren't I?
0:03:38 > 0:03:43- Yeah. Giving it large in here... - And a drink every now and again.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45- So, when did it happen?- What?
0:03:45 > 0:03:48When was the real Fi abducted by aliens?
0:03:59 > 0:04:01Fi?
0:04:05 > 0:04:08- Steven, just calm down.- What if something's happened to Louie?
0:04:08 > 0:04:10Well, she would have said, wouldn't she?
0:04:10 > 0:04:14I should never have put my phone on mute. She must have been trying me all afternoon.
0:04:14 > 0:04:17Well, if it was anything like that, she would have left you a message.
0:04:17 > 0:04:20She wouldn't have just called and said nothing.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22And Lauren would be trying you and all.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25Yeah.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28Yeah, I suppose.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34- Look, I'm sorry. It's just... - No, it's fine.
0:04:35 > 0:04:39With everything that's going on, it's bound to get to you sometimes.
0:04:48 > 0:04:49You really love Louie, don't you?
0:04:52 > 0:04:54He is who all this is for.
0:04:54 > 0:04:56And you and me.
0:04:59 > 0:05:00Of course, you and me.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09Our own proper little family.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17I should probably still get back and see what she wants.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22Oh, don't forget to take your tablets.
0:05:22 > 0:05:23OK.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37DOOR OPENS
0:05:40 > 0:05:42Everything all right?
0:05:42 > 0:05:44Course.
0:05:44 > 0:05:45Nothing fazes me.
0:05:45 > 0:05:48Which is why you're sitting down here, is it?
0:05:48 > 0:05:50I'm just checking the stock.
0:05:50 > 0:05:54Well, I did that this morning. You know, you heard me on the blower.
0:05:56 > 0:06:00If it's none of my business, you just say and I'll...
0:06:00 > 0:06:03It's just a bit of a funny day, that's all.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06Funny?
0:06:06 > 0:06:09Sort of an anniversary, but just ignore me.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12- It's nothing I can't handle. - That's not a good anniversary?
0:06:12 > 0:06:15- Like I said, it's nothing I can't handle, so...- Family?
0:06:16 > 0:06:19You're a right little Sherlock, aren't you?
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Is it your mum? Or your dad? Or...?
0:06:22 > 0:06:25It's not a kid, is it?
0:06:25 > 0:06:28It's my mum.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Weird, ain't it?
0:06:30 > 0:06:33Cos you know today should be like any other day, you know,
0:06:33 > 0:06:35but it's not, is it?
0:06:37 > 0:06:41Doesn't matter if it's one year, two years, 20 years.
0:06:42 > 0:06:43It still hits you hard.
0:06:46 > 0:06:48Yeah.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51So, how long's it been?
0:06:51 > 0:06:53A few years now.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56- She can't have been that old.- No.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59Stan was. He had a good innings, that's what they say, don't they?
0:06:59 > 0:07:04But he never really liked cricket. Had a good few years left in him and all, you know,
0:07:04 > 0:07:07until the cancer really got hold of him.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10Was it the same for your mum? She get ill?
0:07:10 > 0:07:12No.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15Was it an accident?
0:07:17 > 0:07:18She killed herself.
0:07:22 > 0:07:24It's funny, isn't it?
0:07:24 > 0:07:28When somebody has a disease or they have a car crash, then people always
0:07:28 > 0:07:33know what to say, but something like that, they don't have a clue.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43SWITCHES TV OFF How did you get on?
0:07:43 > 0:07:45- What?- The consultant.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Oh, yeah. Fine.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49Fine?
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Well, not fine, but well, you know,
0:07:51 > 0:07:54just keeping on doing more of the same.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57All right, and did you ask him about that treatment? The one in America?
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Yeah, he knows about it, Dad.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02Um, he doesn't think it'll be suitable for me,
0:08:02 > 0:08:05but if there's anything in it, then he's going to follow it up.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08Is everything OK? Only I had all these missed calls from you.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10Yeah, I was just wondering how you were getting on.
0:08:10 > 0:08:15- And your dad has fixed you up to see someone.- Yeah, a doctor.- Dad!
0:08:15 > 0:08:19I'm not interfering, OK? And he's not going to rock the boat with the doctors you're
0:08:19 > 0:08:22already seeing. It's another pair of eyes, OK? It's another opinion.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25- Look, it may not help, but it can't hurt.- No.
0:08:25 > 0:08:26No, I suppose.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30- Have you eaten?- Not yet, no.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32- Shall I fix you a sandwich? - Sure, that'd be great.
0:08:32 > 0:08:35And you'd better get off to the restaurant, love.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38- I don't really feel like it. - Well, we've all got to keep going.
0:08:38 > 0:08:41- I said exactly the same to Lauren not half an hour ago.- Oh?
0:08:41 > 0:08:44Yeah, Whitney wanted to take her out for a drink and she didn't want to do that either.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47So, you, go to work.
0:08:47 > 0:08:49You, go and have a shower, run a bath, relax,
0:08:49 > 0:08:51and I'll get that sandwich.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Yes, dear.
0:08:54 > 0:08:56- See you in a bit.- Bye.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05Ah. Well, well, Sleeping Beauty.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08You don't look all that rested, mind you!
0:09:08 > 0:09:13Why is that, I wonder? It's all falling into place, this is.
0:09:13 > 0:09:17- What are you talking about?- You haven't been out with us for ages.
0:09:17 > 0:09:21- So, come on. Tell me.- Tell you what?
0:09:21 > 0:09:23- His name.- Who?
0:09:23 > 0:09:26The super stud who's kept you locked away in your bedroom all afternoon.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29Come on, Abs! I want details! All of them!
0:09:29 > 0:09:32This body hasn't seen action in so long,
0:09:32 > 0:09:35the next bloke that comes along will have to bring a canary,
0:09:35 > 0:09:37- make sure it's safe!- Donna!
0:09:37 > 0:09:39So?
0:09:39 > 0:09:41No, I'm going out.
0:09:41 > 0:09:45- Are you seeing him again?- Well, I am not going to tell you, so don't ask.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48He's just spent the whole afternoon with you.
0:09:48 > 0:09:49See you later.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51He ain't got a brother by any chance?
0:09:53 > 0:09:55No?
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Lucky cow!
0:10:13 > 0:10:15My son, Lee,
0:10:15 > 0:10:16he had problems.
0:10:16 > 0:10:19Emotional.
0:10:19 > 0:10:20Marital.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25Mental problems, I suppose.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28And him being in the army,
0:10:28 > 0:10:31I can't imagine how hard that was for him.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35And I...I didn't see any of it.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Not when it was happening, anyway.
0:10:43 > 0:10:46Looking back, it could have happened at any time.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48That phone call, that knock on the door.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53Somebody telling me that he'd been found somewhere.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59I'm sorry.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01I'm not saying I know how you feel because I don't.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05And if it helps you being here tonight, then...
0:11:05 > 0:11:09But me and L, we can manage.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14I didn't um...
0:11:14 > 0:11:17I didn't need a phone call or a knock on the door, or anything.
0:11:17 > 0:11:18What do you mean?
0:11:18 > 0:11:21It was just so weird.
0:11:21 > 0:11:25I was walking home that evening that it happened
0:11:25 > 0:11:30and I just had this massive panic attack, total terror.
0:11:30 > 0:11:35I couldn't breathe. I thought it was my heart or something. I didn't...
0:11:37 > 0:11:38I didn't know what to do.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42And then I let myself in.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46And you found her.
0:11:47 > 0:11:50Mick? One of the barrels needs changing.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53Yeah, all right, babe.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01Oh, hiya. Is Steven in?
0:12:01 > 0:12:03I want to talk to him about next week.
0:12:03 > 0:12:06I said I'd have Louie when he went to the hospital.
0:12:06 > 0:12:07But I forgot which day it was.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11Jane?
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Is everything OK?
0:12:16 > 0:12:19I'll answer your question, but first,
0:12:19 > 0:12:20you've got to answer one of mine.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26Why have you taken these from the vet's?
0:12:27 > 0:12:30And why have you given them to Steven?
0:12:33 > 0:12:36What was all that about? The Ice Maiden, hitting the vino.
0:12:36 > 0:12:39Must be all that pollen floating about out there.
0:12:39 > 0:12:42The whole Square will be tripping by the morning.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51You're not making any sense.
0:12:51 > 0:12:56- Why would I be getting pills from the practice to give to Steven? - Well, that's what I'm asking.
0:12:56 > 0:13:00- Why should I?- That's exactly what I've been wondering.
0:13:00 > 0:13:03Can you believe that you are hearing this? Because I can't!
0:13:03 > 0:13:06Just tell her, Abs.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08- What?- She's worked it out already.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12It's obvious. You've been doing some research, yeah?
0:13:12 > 0:13:15That's how you found out what those are.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17Yeah, well, me too.
0:13:17 > 0:13:21I ran out of the ones the consultant gave me. He didn't want to give me any more.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24Said he couldn't up the dose, there could be side-effects.
0:13:24 > 0:13:28They were the only thing that helped.
0:13:28 > 0:13:29When the headaches kicked in,
0:13:29 > 0:13:32they were the only thing that made any difference.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35So, I did some reading up and I found these.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Vets use them to treat some of the tumours in animals.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41OK, you know, they're not exactly the same thing,
0:13:41 > 0:13:43but they're close enough.
0:13:45 > 0:13:50So, I asked... No, I begged Abi to get me some.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52She didn't want to.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54I just kept on at her and on and on.
0:13:57 > 0:14:01- Look, please don't say anything. - LOUIE CRIES ON MONITOR
0:14:01 > 0:14:03This was my idea. No-one else's.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06I don't want Abi getting into trouble.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13Look, I'll stop taking them, OK?
0:14:13 > 0:14:16I'll give back the pills that I've got left.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19- LOUIE CONTINUES CRYING - Abs, could you give me a hand with him?
0:14:27 > 0:14:30You don't mind me doing this now, do you?
0:14:30 > 0:14:32I just want to get my thoughts down while they're fresh.
0:14:33 > 0:14:38Did they mention what they wanted us to say in this speech?
0:14:38 > 0:14:40What, you're doing that now, are you?
0:14:40 > 0:14:43Did they say how long it was meant to be, or who we should thank?
0:14:43 > 0:14:46Cos I suppose there's a lot of people we should be thanking.
0:14:46 > 0:14:48I should have thought about it myself when...
0:14:56 > 0:14:59LOUIE CRIES
0:14:59 > 0:15:01So, what do you think?
0:15:01 > 0:15:03Did she buy it?
0:15:03 > 0:15:05'Abi?'
0:15:05 > 0:15:09'I thought you were actually going to tell her the truth.'
0:15:09 > 0:15:10'Are you mad?'
0:15:10 > 0:15:12'Would it be such a bad idea?'
0:15:12 > 0:15:15OK, it's not how we planned to do it, but it's what we planned to do.
0:15:15 > 0:15:18It would ruin everything.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22It's just that I'm trying to think of the bigger picture here.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25- Me and you.- If that's all you can do, then shut up and let me think.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27OK?
0:15:27 > 0:15:29I mean, this is still what we're planning, isn't it?
0:15:29 > 0:15:33'You marry Lauren, you get custody of Louie,
0:15:33 > 0:15:35'and then you and me move in together?
0:15:35 > 0:15:39'We say that they found some miracle cure or something, or...
0:15:39 > 0:15:42'Or have I got this all wrong?
0:15:42 > 0:15:45'Because if I have, Steven, I don't know why I'm doing all of this.'
0:15:45 > 0:15:47'Course you haven't got it all wrong.'
0:15:47 > 0:15:49Look, if you're having second thoughts, then...
0:15:49 > 0:15:53Did it feel like I was having second thoughts this afternoon?
0:15:53 > 0:15:56'I just...'
0:15:56 > 0:15:59I don't know what I'm saying, OK? I can't think straight.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01I know how I feel though.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04About you.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08So let's just stick to what we said, yeah?
0:16:11 > 0:16:15'Let's go downstairs and smooth everything over with Jane.'
0:16:17 > 0:16:20When I think back, she'd been low for months.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24There'd been problems in the family.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28But I didn't really take much notice.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33When you're 17, you're the centre of your world.
0:16:36 > 0:16:37My brother was even younger.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43And I'd been at a friend's house and he had rugby practice.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47So he'd gone home to get his kit
0:16:47 > 0:16:51and the last thing that he'd said to her was that I'd be back by eight.
0:16:54 > 0:16:56And I'd had that weird moment on the way home,
0:16:58 > 0:17:00but I just never thought.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06And when I let myself in, everything was normal.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09The television was on.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13And there was a casserole in the oven for dinner.
0:17:15 > 0:17:20So I checked it and I filled it up with water.
0:17:20 > 0:17:24And the clock on the cooker said that it was nearly quarter to eight.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30And she hadn't come down, like she normally did when one of us
0:17:30 > 0:17:34came home, so I went upstairs and I could hear water running,
0:17:34 > 0:17:35so I thought she was having a bath.
0:17:37 > 0:17:40And I went and knocked on the door to tell her that I was home.
0:17:40 > 0:17:41And about the panic attack.
0:17:45 > 0:17:50And then I looked down and there was all this water on the floor.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56And I just didn't know how it had got there.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02And then there was more water coming from under the door.
0:18:07 > 0:18:09And I couldn't do it. I couldn't open the door.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11It was like...
0:18:11 > 0:18:16It was like I was frozen because I knew, if I opened the door,
0:18:16 > 0:18:18then my whole life was going to change.
0:18:22 > 0:18:24But then, I did open the door.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29And there she was.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32In the bath.
0:18:33 > 0:18:36And her eyes were open and she was looking at me,
0:18:36 > 0:18:38but of course, she wasn't looking at me.
0:18:39 > 0:18:42And one of her arms was hanging over the bath.
0:18:48 > 0:18:51I didn't... I didn't go near her and I didn't turn off the taps...
0:18:53 > 0:18:57I just turned around and I went to her bedroom
0:18:57 > 0:19:00and I got on the phone and I should have phoned the ambulance,
0:19:00 > 0:19:03but I didn't, I phoned the school.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06And I said that I needed to speak to my brother.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11And when he came on the phone, I just couldn't say the words.
0:19:12 > 0:19:16I just said, "Mum's done something really stupid."
0:19:20 > 0:19:26And then... Then I made arrangements and I called the ambulance.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30And by the time he'd got home, they'd taken her away.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36And the police were there.
0:19:36 > 0:19:38And they cordoned off upstairs.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43In case it was a crime scene or something.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46But it was pretty obvious what had happened.
0:19:48 > 0:19:49And when he came home,
0:19:49 > 0:19:52the first thing he said was that there was something burning
0:19:52 > 0:19:56and, of course, it was the casserole that I'd completely forgotten.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01And I remember looking at him and thinking,
0:20:02 > 0:20:05"Why didn't she do it while he was there?
0:20:07 > 0:20:10"Why did she wait for me?
0:20:10 > 0:20:12"Why did she want me to find her?"
0:20:17 > 0:20:19Because I was the oldest, I suppose.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27Or was it something else?
0:20:30 > 0:20:31Like what?
0:20:31 > 0:20:33I don't know.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39I still don't.
0:20:44 > 0:20:47- Er, listen, Jane, Abi and I have just been talking...- Yeah, I know.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51I heard, loud and clear.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56So, how long has this been going on?
0:20:59 > 0:21:01You and your fiancee's sister?!
0:21:01 > 0:21:03What's it got to do with you?
0:21:03 > 0:21:06Are you serious?!
0:21:06 > 0:21:08Well, this is between me and Steven.
0:21:08 > 0:21:11- It's no-one else's business. - Get out, Abi!
0:21:11 > 0:21:14- What? - I want to talk to Steven alone.
0:21:14 > 0:21:15I'm not going anywhere.
0:21:15 > 0:21:18Just do as she says.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20- What?- Just do it, OK?
0:21:20 > 0:21:24- My place is with you.- Then you are more stupid than you look!
0:21:24 > 0:21:28Look, whatever she's got to say, I want to hear it.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Please.
0:21:30 > 0:21:32You're only going to make things worse.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Please.
0:21:34 > 0:21:35We'll talk later.
0:21:54 > 0:21:55I'm sorry.
0:21:55 > 0:21:57What for?
0:21:57 > 0:22:02- Well, I don't know why I told you all that. I'm not usually...- What?
0:22:02 > 0:22:04Well, that weak, I suppose.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06That's not weak.
0:22:06 > 0:22:09What's weak is bottling things up and not letting them
0:22:09 > 0:22:12out cos you're worried about what other people might think.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15Telling people things, especially things like that,
0:22:16 > 0:22:19it takes guts.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23Never works anyway.
0:22:23 > 0:22:26Keeping things to yourself, always comes out in the end.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29White wine?
0:22:29 > 0:22:31What?
0:22:31 > 0:22:34I'm thinking, a large one?
0:22:34 > 0:22:35Thanks.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41- If you want the truth... - Oh, that'll make a change.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45This is a relief.
0:22:45 > 0:22:47I have hated this.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51Hated lying to you, to Dad, to Lauren.
0:22:51 > 0:22:52So there is no tumour?
0:22:52 > 0:22:54No.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57So, why do this?
0:22:57 > 0:23:03And why now? You've got everything. The woman you love, you've got your family around you,
0:23:03 > 0:23:06- you've got your dad. - Have I?- Well, you're here, aren't you? With us, with Lauren!
0:23:06 > 0:23:10How long do you think I'd be here if anything happened?
0:23:10 > 0:23:12Steven, what are you talking about?
0:23:12 > 0:23:15If Lauren and me split up, who do you think Dad would choose?
0:23:15 > 0:23:19His son, who isn't really his son, or his grandson?
0:23:19 > 0:23:22How is it you put it, Jane? A blood Beale.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29This is your way of making sure you and Lauren don't split?
0:23:29 > 0:23:33- By telling her that you're going to die?- I had to do something.
0:23:33 > 0:23:36She was leaving. She'd found someone else.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38You're saying Lauren's having an affair?!
0:23:38 > 0:23:40No. Not affair.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44- But she was seeing Josh. - Josh was her boss.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46Of course, she was seeing him!
0:23:46 > 0:23:50It was only a matter of time before something happened between them, Jane.
0:23:51 > 0:23:54And Abi? How does she fit into all of this?
0:23:54 > 0:23:57Or have you just been doing with her what you've been doing with the rest of us?
0:23:57 > 0:23:59- Playing stupid games! - This isn't a game.
0:23:59 > 0:24:05No. This... This is going to destroy your dad, you realise that?
0:24:05 > 0:24:07It doesn't need to.
0:24:09 > 0:24:11If you let me, OK, I can put all of this right.
0:24:13 > 0:24:14I can go away, yeah?
0:24:14 > 0:24:17We can tell them there's some treatment that I can try.
0:24:17 > 0:24:21And then I can come back, and we can put this all behind us.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24No more lies.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27And I'll talk to Abi. Yeah? I'll make her see that we were a mistake.
0:24:27 > 0:24:30I know I can smooth it over with her. I know I can.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32OK? Please, Jane.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36I can't lose everything that I've got.
0:24:37 > 0:24:41Just give me a chance, OK? One chance. That is all I am asking.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44DOOR OPENS
0:24:44 > 0:24:47The restaurant was dead. Anyway, I'd much rather be here.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58There you go, my little darling.
0:24:58 > 0:25:00Thank you.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02Don't tell the bird from Grafton Hill.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05She'll probably take it out of my wages.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08I didn't mean thank you for the drink.
0:25:09 > 0:25:10- Mick...- Don't worry.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13I'm not going to say anything.
0:25:13 > 0:25:17Boozers are like confessionals, as far as I'm concerned.
0:25:17 > 0:25:20- What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, yeah?- Yeah.
0:25:20 > 0:25:24Although, I don't see too many neon lights in here, do you?
0:25:24 > 0:25:27Maybe I should return the favour.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Hey.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36That wasn't about me doing you a favour.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41You know, I'm a...one woman man.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45So are most men.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47One at a time, anyway.
0:25:49 > 0:25:54I'm sure that Mr Right, you know, will come along and...
0:25:54 > 0:25:56Well, he certainly hasn't shown up yet.
0:25:59 > 0:26:02Um, Mick... I meant what I said. Thank you.
0:26:22 > 0:26:24Hi, it's me.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26Can we meet?
0:26:26 > 0:26:28I really need to see you.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30Are you OK?
0:26:30 > 0:26:33I'll bring a bottle, yeah? We can demolish it.
0:26:33 > 0:26:36I'll see you at yours in half an hour?
0:26:36 > 0:26:38Let's have some fun.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40Yeah. See you then.
0:26:51 > 0:26:53That was quick.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56Don't tell me loverboy's lost interest.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58He ain't ever going to lose interest.
0:26:58 > 0:27:00Ho-ho! Fighting talk!
0:27:01 > 0:27:03It's just a fact of life.
0:27:27 > 0:27:28Thank you.
0:27:28 > 0:27:31For?
0:27:32 > 0:27:34Not saying anything.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38That's your job.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43I have learnt from bitter experience what lies can do to families.
0:27:45 > 0:27:49Tell your dad and Lauren the truth,
0:27:50 > 0:27:52or I will.
