0:00:21 > 0:00:23He's taken Stuart's passport.

0:00:23 > 0:00:26Right. That changes things. We'll give their descriptions

0:00:26 > 0:00:28to the police at the airport, bus and train stations.

0:00:28 > 0:00:30It'll be OK, wee man. All right? Don't cry.

0:00:30 > 0:00:32Daddy's going to look after you.

0:00:32 > 0:00:36A local man's abducted a child and I'm sat around having cosy dinners.

0:00:36 > 0:00:37Will, please don't...

0:00:39 > 0:00:42You were going to take my child away from me.

0:00:42 > 0:00:43I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

0:00:43 > 0:00:45Sorry?! How could you do this to me?

0:00:45 > 0:00:47How could you do it to Stuart?

0:00:54 > 0:00:58# You're a law unto yourself

0:01:00 > 0:01:03# And we don't suffer dreamers

0:01:03 > 0:01:07# But neither should you walk

0:01:07 > 0:01:10# The earth alone

0:01:13 > 0:01:16# So with finger rolls

0:01:16 > 0:01:19# And folding chairs

0:01:20 > 0:01:22# And a volley of streamers. #

0:01:58 > 0:02:00"Happy anniversary, Stella."

0:02:03 > 0:02:05What? Is that you away, aye?

0:02:09 > 0:02:10Need to go to my work.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14Happy Valentine's Day, by the way.

0:02:14 > 0:02:16Stella, don't start.

0:02:16 > 0:02:20Well, I was expecting something a bit more special than a manky kitchen when I got up.

0:02:20 > 0:02:22I'm not doing this now.

0:02:22 > 0:02:25It's our anniversary. That's important. Is it not?

0:02:27 > 0:02:29I just wanted it to be special.

0:02:30 > 0:02:33Well, it's not. Is it? How can it be?

0:02:33 > 0:02:36You know what's going on. You know how I'm feeling.

0:02:39 > 0:02:42Why don't I make us something for dinner tonight?

0:02:42 > 0:02:46No pressure. I'm not expecting hearts and flowers or anything.

0:02:46 > 0:02:47Just a night in with my husband.

0:02:49 > 0:02:53Nah. I don't think it's a really good idea. Sorry.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00I really have to go.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03I love you.

0:03:08 > 0:03:09I know you do.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31Hiya. You all right?

0:03:31 > 0:03:33Fine. Aye. You?

0:03:33 > 0:03:36You sure? You look a wee bit out of it.

0:03:37 > 0:03:39No, I'm fine. Honestly.

0:03:39 > 0:03:42- We're pals, aren't we? - Uh-huh. What else would we be?

0:03:42 > 0:03:45Nothing. It's just...if something's...

0:03:45 > 0:03:48If something's bothering you then you'd tell me, wouldn't you?

0:03:51 > 0:03:53I had a pure weird dream last night.

0:03:53 > 0:03:54What was it about?

0:03:56 > 0:03:59- Nothing.- Go on. Tell me. I'm good with dreams.

0:03:59 > 0:04:01Could tell you what it means.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03You are a pure woman.

0:04:03 > 0:04:06I'm a pure woman?! Right you are.

0:04:11 > 0:04:13- A pure woman?! - HE LAUGHS

0:04:22 > 0:04:23You look a mess.

0:04:25 > 0:04:27It was all I could find.

0:04:27 > 0:04:29You need to smarten up a bit. Both of yous.

0:04:29 > 0:04:31What's up with us?

0:04:31 > 0:04:33What's right with yous?

0:04:33 > 0:04:35I'm no running a low-rent boozer here, you know?

0:04:35 > 0:04:38- It's just one of those days. All right?- No, it's not all right.

0:04:38 > 0:04:41There's uniforms to pick up down at the cash and carry.

0:04:41 > 0:04:42You go down and get them.

0:04:42 > 0:04:45See if you can make the rest of that...fit.

0:04:52 > 0:04:54You all right? It's just his way.

0:04:54 > 0:04:55I know.

0:04:55 > 0:04:59- The thing is, Stella... - I'm just tired, all right? That's it.

0:04:59 > 0:05:03Just want to make sure you're taking care of yourself.

0:05:03 > 0:05:05Has Bubba said anything?

0:05:06 > 0:05:08Well, I don't suppose he's noticed.

0:05:16 > 0:05:19MUSIC: "Bom Bom" by Sam and The Womp

0:05:21 > 0:05:24MUSIC DROWNS OUT SPEECH

0:05:41 > 0:05:43How much time did you waste on her?

0:05:43 > 0:05:45We all make mistakes.

0:05:55 > 0:05:57Would you cut that out?

0:05:59 > 0:06:01- By the time we left...- Sshhhh.

0:06:01 > 0:06:03Nicole?

0:06:03 > 0:06:05Yes?

0:06:06 > 0:06:07Morning.

0:06:07 > 0:06:09Have you been out all night?

0:06:09 > 0:06:12Uh-huh. We're going to bed now though for a few hours.

0:06:12 > 0:06:14Absolutely knackered. Come on.

0:06:14 > 0:06:17Wait. This is completely unacceptable.

0:06:19 > 0:06:23- Upstairs. First on the left. Make yourself at home.- OK.

0:06:28 > 0:06:31Go on then. Get it off your chest.

0:06:31 > 0:06:34You cannot stay out all night. You just can't.

0:06:34 > 0:06:35You didn't even notice.

0:06:35 > 0:06:38- I was respecting your privacy, Nicole.- Whatever.

0:06:38 > 0:06:40And who is that...man? Hmmm?

0:06:40 > 0:06:43- And what's he doing in my house? - He's a DJ.

0:06:43 > 0:06:47What's his name and why on earth would you bring him back here?

0:06:47 > 0:06:48His name's Deckz.

0:06:48 > 0:06:52- HE SNIGGERS - You can laugh. Who trips over a football?

0:06:55 > 0:06:58Why do you think I brought him back here?

0:06:59 > 0:07:00Look...

0:07:00 > 0:07:03Nicole, I'm not happy about this.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06- You go and ask him to leave or I'll...- Or you'll what?

0:07:09 > 0:07:10Nicole!

0:07:15 > 0:07:16Nicole!

0:07:27 > 0:07:29- All right?- All right?

0:07:33 > 0:07:35What was all that about?

0:07:35 > 0:07:37You're going to have to talk to him sometime.

0:07:37 > 0:07:41- You think I don't know that? - What's wrong with now?

0:07:47 > 0:07:49You going to see Stuart?

0:07:49 > 0:07:51I am, yeah.

0:07:51 > 0:07:54- That's nice. Have fun.- We'll try.

0:07:55 > 0:07:56See you later.

0:08:05 > 0:08:07So what do you think he's going to have us in then?

0:08:07 > 0:08:09How should I know?

0:08:09 > 0:08:11As long as he's not got me in drag, I'm not bothered.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13He'll probably have you in nothing but a wee bow tie.

0:08:13 > 0:08:16And all the old dears will be getting a wee cheap thrill off you.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18What d'you mean, a wee thrill?

0:08:18 > 0:08:21I'll have you know, I've stopped hearts with this chest.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24Oh, aye. Save it for all the single ladies then, eh?

0:08:24 > 0:08:25Aye. Well, chance'd be a fine thing.

0:08:25 > 0:08:29You've got to take your chances, son. You need to get out more.

0:08:29 > 0:08:31Get out this place and start having some fun.

0:08:31 > 0:08:34- Isn't that right, Stella? - What's that?

0:08:34 > 0:08:36Stevie. Should be out on the pull, not pulling pints in here.

0:08:36 > 0:08:38I'm fine as I am.

0:08:38 > 0:08:41Here. Have you not got any single pals we could set him up

0:08:41 > 0:08:43- on a wee blind date with? - Aye, I suppose.

0:08:43 > 0:08:47- See, there you go.- I said I'm fine.

0:08:47 > 0:08:50What's the matter with your coupon? And don't say nothing.

0:08:50 > 0:08:54Och. Lenny gave us a roasting for not being glamorous enough. Eejit.

0:08:54 > 0:08:57Seriously? Is that what's bothering you?

0:08:57 > 0:08:59Well, he basically told me I'm a dog.

0:08:59 > 0:09:04He's full of mince. You're one of the prettiest lassies I know.

0:09:04 > 0:09:06- Shut up.- What?

0:09:06 > 0:09:09You're all right. You're certainly not a dog.

0:09:10 > 0:09:11Good to know.

0:09:11 > 0:09:15No, it's more than that because when you say to a lassie,

0:09:15 > 0:09:18"You're not a dog" you're just being nice.

0:09:18 > 0:09:21- But you're properly... - Properly what?

0:09:21 > 0:09:25Well, you're nice looking. I'm not saying I fancy you or nothing.

0:09:25 > 0:09:26It's just a fact.

0:09:32 > 0:09:33Thanks.

0:09:34 > 0:09:37That's the nicest thing anybody's said to me in ages.

0:09:40 > 0:09:42I'm going to go out. Are you wanting anything?

0:09:42 > 0:09:45Stevie! Are you going give us a hand with this?

0:09:46 > 0:09:48See you in a bit.

0:09:48 > 0:09:49- Stevie!- Coming!

0:09:56 > 0:09:58Will I see you again?

0:09:58 > 0:10:02I've got tickets for this new night at Buzz, if you fancy it?

0:10:02 > 0:10:05- Oh, right. When?- Tonight. You free?

0:10:05 > 0:10:08- Dunno, maybe.- You don't need to put yourself out, all right?

0:10:08 > 0:10:10- I can always ask somebody else. - No, I'm free.

0:10:10 > 0:10:14- Good. I'll pick you up later. Sevenish?- Sounds good.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16I had a good night last night.

0:10:22 > 0:10:25- I don't need to be anywhere just now if you fancy...- No, I need to go.

0:10:25 > 0:10:27Later.

0:10:27 > 0:10:30- OK.- Bye.- Bye.

0:10:35 > 0:10:36- Morning.- Hi.

0:10:41 > 0:10:42Did you see that?

0:10:42 > 0:10:46Was like a bad flashback. Could have been me 15 year ago.

0:10:46 > 0:10:48Glad you find it so funny.

0:10:48 > 0:10:50That's your niece, your flesh and blood,

0:10:50 > 0:10:54- hanging off the doorstep like some....- It's just a bit of fun.

0:10:54 > 0:10:58Yeah, for him maybe. Did you always call after?

0:10:58 > 0:11:01All right. Fine. Now I want to knock him about a bit.

0:11:01 > 0:11:02Happy?

0:11:02 > 0:11:04Someone needs to speak to her.

0:11:06 > 0:11:08You're joking, right?

0:11:09 > 0:11:12No way. There is no way I'm talking to my niece about her sex life.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14You do it.

0:11:14 > 0:11:17I tried. Didn't go so well.

0:11:17 > 0:11:21What? And you think Nicole's going to be any more interested in what I've got to say?

0:11:21 > 0:11:24With my track record? Maybe she's just after a bit of fun too, Leyla.

0:11:24 > 0:11:27That sort of fun she can do without.

0:11:27 > 0:11:31Look, starting a new relationship's one thing, but with a total stranger?

0:11:33 > 0:11:35Do you remember Cammy? Cos I do.

0:11:36 > 0:11:39All right. All right. I'll have a word.

0:11:39 > 0:11:40Thank you.

0:11:40 > 0:11:43But don't be expecting miracles. She's a kid, Leyla.

0:11:43 > 0:11:45It's what they do.

0:11:45 > 0:11:46Just try your best. Please.

0:11:56 > 0:11:59- Eileen said I could take him out. - Aye. With me.

0:11:59 > 0:12:02- That wasn't the deal.- Well, it's the only deal I'm happy with.

0:12:02 > 0:12:03Take it or leave it.

0:12:03 > 0:12:06Come on, Malcolm. You weren't thinking of taking him far were you?

0:12:06 > 0:12:08Just the park. Maybe the Oyster for lunch.

0:12:08 > 0:12:10There you go. It's not as if it's the other end of the country.

0:12:10 > 0:12:14No offence, son, but since when did you become a member of this family?

0:12:14 > 0:12:16Eileen might be willing to give you the benefit of the doubt,

0:12:16 > 0:12:19but for once, I think she's being too soft.

0:12:19 > 0:12:21Malcolm, this is between me and her.

0:12:21 > 0:12:24You tried to take the wee one away from us. All of us.

0:12:24 > 0:12:28- Who says that you won't try to do it again?- Me! I'd never try anything like that again.

0:12:28 > 0:12:30I don't trust you. Can't afford to.

0:12:30 > 0:12:32And I'm not budging on this one.

0:12:32 > 0:12:34Stuart stays with me.

0:12:35 > 0:12:38I'll go and see if Liz has got the wee one ready.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44Look, it'll take time, mate. Just give them some time, eh?

0:13:03 > 0:13:06Whatever you have to say to me, it can wait until I get home. OK?

0:13:06 > 0:13:08I need an appointment.

0:13:10 > 0:13:11An appointment?

0:13:11 > 0:13:12Uh-huh.

0:13:12 > 0:13:15This is a doctor's surgery, is it not?

0:13:15 > 0:13:18- Don't get smart with me, Nic. - Don't try and fob me off then.

0:13:18 > 0:13:20I can't just fit you in at a moment's notice.

0:13:20 > 0:13:22We have a system.

0:13:22 > 0:13:25Well, stuff your system. I need the morning-after pill.

0:13:25 > 0:13:27Now.

0:13:27 > 0:13:30Is there a problem, Mrs Brodie?

0:13:30 > 0:13:31She won't make me an appointment.

0:13:31 > 0:13:33Nicole! That's not true.

0:13:33 > 0:13:36- Come with me.- Doctor Stubbs...

0:13:36 > 0:13:39It's fine. I can spare five minutes.

0:13:39 > 0:13:41- Thank you.- It's not for your benefit, Nicole.

0:13:41 > 0:13:44I'd simply prefer not to expose my other patients

0:13:44 > 0:13:47to any more of your histrionics. On you go.

0:13:49 > 0:13:51SHE MOUTHS

0:13:55 > 0:13:58If you vomit within three hours of taking the pill

0:13:58 > 0:14:02it will not work. You will need to take another one. Is that clear?

0:14:02 > 0:14:03Yep.

0:14:04 > 0:14:07- Thanks.- Just doing my job.

0:14:09 > 0:14:10Why did you come here?

0:14:12 > 0:14:15Could've done all this online. Picked up the pill from a chemist.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18Why here where everyone knows you?

0:14:19 > 0:14:21- I didn't think.- Rubbish.

0:14:21 > 0:14:24That performance in reception, trying to shame Leyla,

0:14:24 > 0:14:26advertising your behaviour.

0:14:26 > 0:14:30Not that there's anything wrong with it per se.

0:14:30 > 0:14:32I remember being your age.

0:14:32 > 0:14:36I took some very silly risks with a number of unsuitable boys.

0:14:36 > 0:14:39But I did it quietly. Under the radar.

0:14:39 > 0:14:43For my own enjoyment. This...

0:14:43 > 0:14:45This is for someone else's benefit.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50I think you want someone to challenge you. Maybe even stop you.

0:14:50 > 0:14:53You don't know what you're talking about.

0:14:53 > 0:14:54I came here because it was easy.

0:14:54 > 0:14:58- No-one's going to stop me having fun.- As long as it is fun.

0:14:59 > 0:15:01Please make it safe as well.

0:15:15 > 0:15:17Alrighty.

0:15:22 > 0:15:26- Oh. Sorry. - It's all right. No harm done.

0:15:26 > 0:15:31- What was all that about? - Nothing. It's nothing.

0:15:31 > 0:15:34Right, come on you. You're gonnae have lunch with me.

0:15:39 > 0:15:43- D'you hear she brought a guy back at eight o'clock this morning?- No!

0:15:43 > 0:15:47Aye, trust her to get a lumber on Valentine's.

0:15:47 > 0:15:52Poor Stevie man. He's pure not ready for anything like that.

0:15:52 > 0:15:59God, I am. You're so lucky. Pure sucks being single. Especially today.

0:16:01 > 0:16:03Aye well, it's not much better being married.

0:16:03 > 0:16:07- You and Bob must have plans, eh?- No.

0:16:07 > 0:16:12I said I was going to cook him a special anniversary dinner. But he told me not to bother.

0:16:12 > 0:16:14Seriously?

0:16:14 > 0:16:19But he loves you. You do know that, right?

0:16:19 > 0:16:22Aye well, he doesn't seem to notice me any more.

0:16:22 > 0:16:27Maybe your ma's right. I've let myself go and then he's gone off me.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30You let yourself go? My Ma said that?

0:16:30 > 0:16:31She wasn't meaning it out of badness.

0:16:31 > 0:16:36Lenny was on my case about not looking glam enough for his boozer.

0:16:36 > 0:16:38Think she was just trying to be helpful.

0:16:38 > 0:16:42D'you know what? I got a load of new cosmetics.

0:16:42 > 0:16:44Free samples. I need a guinea pig.

0:16:46 > 0:16:47I don't know.

0:16:47 > 0:16:52You sit there for a couple of minutes. What would you like?

0:16:52 > 0:16:55You can have anything you like. But it's my treat, OK?

0:16:55 > 0:16:57- What about you, Malcolm? - I'll pay my own way, thanks.

0:17:00 > 0:17:03Malcolm, any chance you could let me sit next to Stuart?

0:17:03 > 0:17:06We're fine as we are. Aren't we, son?

0:17:12 > 0:17:13So you lot having fun today?

0:17:13 > 0:17:17Yes. We were playing on the swings earlier, weren't we wee, man?

0:17:17 > 0:17:20And we found a big massive snail. Which was nice.

0:17:22 > 0:17:25Dad, were you not seeing the doctor this morning?

0:17:25 > 0:17:27- I cancelled.- What for?

0:17:27 > 0:17:29Somebody had to keep an eye on this one.

0:17:29 > 0:17:32- Really?- Aye, really.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34Dad, that appointment...

0:17:34 > 0:17:37They fitted me in again tomorrow so stop your fussing.

0:17:40 > 0:17:42Right, do we know what we want here?

0:17:42 > 0:17:45Give us a minute, eh? What would you like son?

0:17:45 > 0:17:48Look. Ice cream.

0:17:48 > 0:17:51CHILD BABBLES

0:18:01 > 0:18:03You look different.

0:18:07 > 0:18:11- Hiya.- Can I have a bottle of lager, please?

0:18:15 > 0:18:16Here you are.

0:18:18 > 0:18:20You want to pay for that or wear it home?

0:18:25 > 0:18:28See what happens when you make a wee bit of effort?

0:18:28 > 0:18:30That wasn't what you were saying this morning.

0:18:30 > 0:18:34Aw, darlin, sorry, I just thought you looked a wee bit tired.

0:18:34 > 0:18:35Bubba's a lucky man.

0:18:37 > 0:18:38Can we get these out?

0:18:40 > 0:18:41No bother.

0:18:41 > 0:18:43Don't you think she looks nice?

0:18:43 > 0:18:46Grand. Aye. You look lovely.

0:18:47 > 0:18:48You all right?

0:18:48 > 0:18:50Uh-huh.

0:18:52 > 0:18:54I'm fine. All right?

0:18:54 > 0:18:56Right. Youse two ready?

0:18:56 > 0:18:59- I can manage on my own, you know. - It'll be quicker with both of you..

0:18:59 > 0:19:04- If Stevie doesn't want me to go... - Does it look like I care what he wants? C'mon get.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21- Hi?- All right.

0:19:28 > 0:19:30- Is it Nicole?- What?

0:19:30 > 0:19:32Is that why you've been so crabbit all day?

0:19:32 > 0:19:33I've not crabbit.

0:19:33 > 0:19:36Kelly-Marie said she's gone wi' some new guy.

0:19:36 > 0:19:37So?

0:19:37 > 0:19:40Well, it's hard, isn't it? Getting over someone you loved.

0:19:40 > 0:19:42I'm over her.

0:19:42 > 0:19:43All right.

0:19:43 > 0:19:45Just wish everybody else would see that.

0:20:04 > 0:20:05Cheers.

0:20:08 > 0:20:10All right?

0:20:10 > 0:20:11Yeah. Thanks. You?

0:20:11 > 0:20:15Great. Good to see you.

0:20:15 > 0:20:18You too. We should go for a beer sometime.

0:20:18 > 0:20:20Aye, maybe aye.

0:20:20 > 0:20:22Malcolm.

0:20:22 > 0:20:25Nice to see all the family together.

0:20:25 > 0:20:27Raymond getting the chance to see Stuart.

0:20:29 > 0:20:30I'm only doing this for the boy.

0:20:30 > 0:20:33You ask me, he doesn't deserve any of it.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38Aye. Well. I'd best be off. See you.

0:20:39 > 0:20:41I need some air.

0:20:44 > 0:20:46- Raymond? - Just...give me a minute.

0:20:53 > 0:20:56Do you want to tell me what's going on here?

0:20:56 > 0:21:03- Somebody's been telling tales. - Gina respects my decision. Be nice if you did too.

0:21:03 > 0:21:07What if I happen to think it's a very bad decision?

0:21:07 > 0:21:12Raymond is Stuart's father. He deserves to be in his life. End of.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15You don't know what you're talking about.

0:21:15 > 0:21:18I know that he tried to do a terrible thing. But he couldn't go through with it. Not in the end.

0:21:18 > 0:21:20Because basically he's a good man.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23Good men don't do what he did.

0:21:23 > 0:21:30Dad, maybe things wouldn't have got so bad if I'd not been so stubborn.

0:21:30 > 0:21:31So determined to punish him.

0:21:31 > 0:21:33But none of this is your fault.

0:21:33 > 0:21:35Yes, it is. Some of it.

0:21:37 > 0:21:40Stuart's his son too and I tried to take him away from him.

0:21:40 > 0:21:44Not to the other side of the world but...bad enough.

0:21:44 > 0:21:45Well, he's a lot to make up for.

0:21:45 > 0:21:47Yes. But isn't that what he's trying to do?

0:21:47 > 0:21:50Make amends. Face up to all the people he's hurt.

0:21:52 > 0:21:55I think he deserves a bit of credit for that. Don't you?

0:22:11 > 0:22:14You all right?

0:22:14 > 0:22:16Old yin still giving you a hard time?

0:22:16 > 0:22:17And then some.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19C'mon, man, don't let him get you down.

0:22:19 > 0:22:24Easier said than done. He's been at me all day.

0:22:24 > 0:22:26And I've tried so hard.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30You just need to keep trying. He'll come round. Eventually.

0:22:32 > 0:22:33I hope so.

0:22:35 > 0:22:37Oh, God. I've really messed up.

0:22:40 > 0:22:44You know something? I used to be one of the good guys.

0:22:45 > 0:22:47People liked me. Respected me.

0:22:49 > 0:22:53Now all anyone's going to remember is all the stuff I'm ashamed of

0:22:53 > 0:22:56You were up against it, Raymond.

0:22:56 > 0:22:58You did what you thought you had to do.

0:22:58 > 0:23:02We've all done that. Meet me later for a pint, eh?

0:23:04 > 0:23:06Not sure that's such a good idea.

0:23:06 > 0:23:09Och, come on, man. Hiding away never fixed anything.

0:23:11 > 0:23:14You need to get yourself out there. Show people you're sorry.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18I just don't know if I'm ready to go back there.

0:23:18 > 0:23:20All the stuff that happened in that place.

0:23:20 > 0:23:22That's what brought me to this.

0:23:22 > 0:23:24Cannae avoid it for ever.

0:23:24 > 0:23:27I know. But...

0:23:30 > 0:23:32Look, eight o'clock. See you there, yeah?

0:23:33 > 0:23:36- Maybe.- Good man.

0:23:36 > 0:23:39- Now get back in there and spend some time with your son.- See you.

0:23:59 > 0:24:01MUSIC STOPS

0:24:01 > 0:24:02What d'you do that for?

0:24:02 > 0:24:05Thought maybe we could talk for a bit instead.

0:24:05 > 0:24:08Aye, well, I like a bit of music when I'm driving.

0:24:08 > 0:24:10MUSIC PLAYS

0:24:22 > 0:24:24How are we? All right?

0:24:24 > 0:24:25Yeah, I'm great.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31So I seen you with that new fella of yours.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34- Yeah?- So do you like him?

0:24:34 > 0:24:37He's all right. I've only just met him.

0:24:38 > 0:24:41And you're being careful, right?

0:24:41 > 0:24:44Uncle Gabriel. Please.

0:24:44 > 0:24:47I was his age once. I know what guys like him are after.

0:24:47 > 0:24:50You don't have to do this. I'm not stupid.

0:24:50 > 0:24:51I know. But just hear me out.

0:24:53 > 0:24:57You don't know where he's been, or who else he's went with.

0:24:57 > 0:24:59It might seem like a mad riot just now

0:24:59 > 0:25:03but the last thing you need is to catch something nasty,

0:25:03 > 0:25:05or to get your wee heart broken, just for a giggle.

0:25:05 > 0:25:07OK. I'll be careful, I promise. Scout's honour.

0:25:07 > 0:25:10You could do miles better.

0:25:11 > 0:25:14This is all very sweet, but I can look after myself.

0:25:14 > 0:25:17Leyla thinks you're going to make some massive mistake

0:25:17 > 0:25:18- and ruin your whole life.- Leyla?

0:25:18 > 0:25:21- Well, she's worried, Nicole. - Yeah? You can tell her to shove it.

0:25:21 > 0:25:24She just doesn't want to see you getting hurt.

0:25:24 > 0:25:27Doesn't want me showing her up, more like. Making her life difficult.

0:25:27 > 0:25:29That's not fair.

0:25:29 > 0:25:31This is my life, OK? And I'll do what I want with it.

0:25:31 > 0:25:34You can show yourself out.

0:25:53 > 0:25:54Sake!

0:25:58 > 0:26:02- Everything all right? - We've got a flat tyre.

0:26:02 > 0:26:04Right, you can fix it but, can't you?

0:26:04 > 0:26:05Aye.

0:26:07 > 0:26:09- Do you want a hand?- No. I'm fine.

0:26:11 > 0:26:13It'll be quicker if I we just do it together.

0:26:13 > 0:26:17Look, I said I've got it, all right? Just...stay in there.

0:26:21 > 0:26:25It was good to see you today, wee man. You be good?

0:26:25 > 0:26:29And I'll see you again soon, OK? Do I get a wee hug?

0:26:30 > 0:26:34You need to go, wee man. I'll see you soon. Bye-bye.

0:26:34 > 0:26:38- Bye-bye.- Bye-bye, darling!- OK! - I'll see you soon.

0:26:38 > 0:26:42I'll make you some juice. Maybe a wee biscuit.

0:26:42 > 0:26:45In our kitchen.

0:26:48 > 0:26:52Thanks for today, Malcolm. Means a lot.

0:26:52 > 0:26:57- I'm thinking maybe, maybe next time...- Next time what?

0:26:59 > 0:27:01Maybe I was wrong today.

0:27:03 > 0:27:06You were only doing what you thought was right.

0:27:06 > 0:27:09That depends what's right? Wee Stuart obviously adores you.

0:27:09 > 0:27:11I can't stand in the way of that. Can I?

0:27:11 > 0:27:12It's up to you, Malcolm.

0:27:12 > 0:27:15I'm just grateful for any time I get to spend with him.

0:27:15 > 0:27:17Aside from my girls,

0:27:17 > 0:27:20he's the only family I've still got left around here.

0:27:21 > 0:27:27Ruth, Joanne, both gone. Taken their weans with them.

0:27:27 > 0:27:29Kirsty and Brian...well...

0:27:30 > 0:27:32If you'd taken him away...

0:27:32 > 0:27:35I might never have seen him again, you know that, don't you?

0:27:35 > 0:27:37It's not something I'll get over in a hurry.

0:27:38 > 0:27:42Still, it's taken a lot of guts for you to stick around after

0:27:42 > 0:27:44everything that's happened.

0:27:45 > 0:27:49Eileen's right, credit where credit's due.

0:27:49 > 0:27:51Everything I do is for Stuart.

0:27:51 > 0:27:55I won't come with you next time you take the wee man out.

0:27:55 > 0:27:57Thanks, Malcolm. That means a lot.

0:27:57 > 0:27:59Don't make me regret it now.

0:28:00 > 0:28:01I won't.

0:28:10 > 0:28:14- This is taking ages. Let me help you.- I'm fine.

0:28:16 > 0:28:18See?

0:28:18 > 0:28:21This whole "me man, me fix stuff" thing is kind of flattering

0:28:21 > 0:28:23but I have dealt with a flat tyre you know.

0:28:23 > 0:28:25I can manage myself.

0:28:25 > 0:28:26Just get the wheel off, eh?

0:28:27 > 0:28:31What is wrong with you lot, man? Bunch of stroppy wee boys.

0:28:32 > 0:28:35How am I supposed to fix stuff if you won't tell me what's wrong?

0:28:35 > 0:28:39- I don't need you to fix anything.- I don't need you being nasty to me.

0:28:39 > 0:28:41- I'm not being nasty.- Naw.

0:28:41 > 0:28:45That's right, you just cannae stand to be anywhere near me, can you?

0:28:45 > 0:28:48I've had a bad enough day without you falling out with me an' all.

0:28:48 > 0:28:50All right, you've had a bad day.

0:28:51 > 0:28:53Lenny and that eejit in the bar.

0:28:53 > 0:28:55Look you just seem a bit down. And that bothers me.

0:28:55 > 0:28:59- That's all.- So you thought you'd be weird and that'd make it all better?

0:28:59 > 0:29:01I didn't know what to do.

0:29:01 > 0:29:04It's not as if I can exactly set about Lenny, is it?

0:29:04 > 0:29:09You're a pure daftie. Just make a stupid joke, be a pal.

0:29:09 > 0:29:11Never been that hard for you before.

0:29:11 > 0:29:12No. It's no'.

0:29:14 > 0:29:15Come on then.

0:29:22 > 0:29:25Nicole's right, Leyla. It's her life.

0:29:25 > 0:29:28Yeah, and I don't want to watch her throwing it away like this.

0:29:28 > 0:29:31Look, she's experimenting. You know trying stuff out.

0:29:31 > 0:29:33That's what kids do.

0:29:33 > 0:29:34It's what we all did.

0:29:34 > 0:29:37As long as she's safe and someone's keeping an eye on her

0:29:37 > 0:29:39I can't see it doing her any real harm.

0:29:39 > 0:29:41I don't know.

0:29:41 > 0:29:43She's not completely stupid.

0:29:43 > 0:29:47Maybe you should let her negotiate this one herself.

0:29:47 > 0:29:51She's right. Short of locking her up, I don't think there's much more you can do.

0:29:51 > 0:29:52Don't think I'm not tempted.

0:29:54 > 0:29:56Maybe I should try talking to her again tonight.

0:29:56 > 0:29:58Really laying down the law.

0:29:58 > 0:30:00You're going to push her further away.

0:30:00 > 0:30:03I can't just stand by and do nothing.

0:30:03 > 0:30:05Well, you have to.

0:30:05 > 0:30:08Tell you what, why don't you come to the pub with me after work.

0:30:08 > 0:30:11Take a bit of time out for yourself.

0:30:11 > 0:30:12I should be at home.

0:30:12 > 0:30:16For what exactly? To give her another lecture? Have another row?

0:30:16 > 0:30:21Maybe a bit of space will do you both the world of good.

0:30:21 > 0:30:22What do you say?

0:30:25 > 0:30:26I'll think about it, OK?

0:30:33 > 0:30:34You're wearing it.

0:30:34 > 0:30:36You cannae make me.

0:30:36 > 0:30:38How can I not wear that one?

0:30:38 > 0:30:40That one's Scarlett's.

0:30:40 > 0:30:42That's not fair. Why me?

0:30:42 > 0:30:43It's only a T-shirt.

0:30:43 > 0:30:47But it's pure tight. And...low cut.

0:30:47 > 0:30:50I'm gonnae spend all day getting pure perved over.

0:30:50 > 0:30:52You work for me. Right? So you wear the T-shirt.

0:30:52 > 0:30:55Or you don't work for me. OK?

0:31:03 > 0:31:05You still here?

0:31:15 > 0:31:19- You all right? - Not really, no.

0:31:19 > 0:31:21- Come on. It's not that bad. - It's a pure state.

0:31:23 > 0:31:27All I can see is another good reason to show up for work every day.

0:31:27 > 0:31:32Ha-ha(!) I'm going to look pure stupid Stevie.

0:31:32 > 0:31:35All the other creeps are going to use it as an excuse to try and cop a feel.

0:31:35 > 0:31:39Good job I'll be there to watch out for you then.

0:31:39 > 0:31:42People already make assumptions about you working in a bar.

0:31:42 > 0:31:43Think you've no brains,

0:31:43 > 0:31:46and you're up for a bit of fun and banter and that.

0:31:47 > 0:31:49This is just going to make it worse.

0:31:50 > 0:31:53Look, Stella, there's more to you than the job you do.

0:31:53 > 0:31:56If nobody else can see that they're probably just drunk.

0:31:56 > 0:32:00- You're so nice. - It's no more than you deserve.

0:32:00 > 0:32:02Come on. Don't be like that.

0:32:06 > 0:32:09Hey. Come here, pal.

0:32:18 > 0:32:21Hey. You should go home.

0:32:21 > 0:32:25MUSIC: "Open Arms" by Elbow

0:34:16 > 0:34:18Hiya.

0:34:20 > 0:34:23What did you do this for?

0:34:25 > 0:34:26It's just a bit of dinner.

0:34:28 > 0:34:29I want you to be happy.

0:34:33 > 0:34:37You cannae make me happy. Nobody can make me happy.

0:34:38 > 0:34:41I know everything seems a wee bit hopeless the now

0:34:41 > 0:34:44but what we've got is worth saving.

0:34:44 > 0:34:48Is it? I don't know any more.

0:34:52 > 0:34:53You should leave.

0:34:55 > 0:34:57Don't be stupid. I'm not going anywhere.

0:34:57 > 0:35:01You're 19 and lumbered with a guy who cannae feel anything.

0:35:01 > 0:35:04Is that what you want for the rest of your life?

0:35:04 > 0:35:08It's not always gonnae be like this. It didn't used to be.

0:35:08 > 0:35:10We were happy. We can be happy again.

0:35:10 > 0:35:14No! This isn't just going to just go away.

0:35:14 > 0:35:16It's not like I'm feeling a wee bit down.

0:35:16 > 0:35:18Or I've had a bad day. And all this...

0:35:19 > 0:35:24You said you would try. We can't just give up.

0:35:24 > 0:35:27I cannae deal with this.

0:35:27 > 0:35:30With you wanting something that I cannae give you.

0:35:30 > 0:35:34Stella, I'm broken, and there's nothing you can do to fix me.

0:35:36 > 0:35:39- Will you just let me try, please? - You're not listening!

0:35:39 > 0:35:40PLATES BREAK

0:35:43 > 0:35:45The guy you married isn't here any more, all right?

0:36:22 > 0:36:25Hey. You all right?

0:36:25 > 0:36:27Aye, course I am.

0:36:27 > 0:36:29No, you're not. What's going on?

0:36:33 > 0:36:36It's my first wedding anniversary today.

0:36:36 > 0:36:38I know. Congratulations.

0:36:41 > 0:36:44Aye, well, Bob doesn't think it's worth celebrating.

0:36:50 > 0:36:55- What am I going to do?- I've not got a clue. I've never been married.

0:36:55 > 0:37:00Aye but he thinks he's the only one suffering and it's pure killing me.

0:37:00 > 0:37:03- Then leave. - That's what he said.

0:37:04 > 0:37:07Maybe he's right.

0:37:07 > 0:37:11Am I the only one that thinks this marriage is worth fighting for?

0:37:11 > 0:37:15I don't know. But I do know that life is really short.

0:37:15 > 0:37:18And you only get one shot at it.

0:37:20 > 0:37:22I cannae leave him. Everybody'd pure hate me.

0:37:22 > 0:37:24Not everybody.

0:37:24 > 0:37:30Scarlett, Jimmy, Kelly-Marie. Molly, Bob.

0:37:30 > 0:37:32- The closest thing I've ever had to a family.- So why you talking to me

0:37:32 > 0:37:35when you should be over there talking to them?

0:37:35 > 0:37:39He doesn't want anybody to know.

0:37:39 > 0:37:41Well, that's fair enough.

0:37:43 > 0:37:46Look, I don't believe that everybody deserves to be happy.

0:37:46 > 0:37:49But I do believe that there should be more highs than lows.

0:37:49 > 0:37:51And everybody deserves wee moments of happiness.

0:37:51 > 0:37:56And if you're not getting that from wee Bob then maybe it's time

0:37:56 > 0:37:59to look somewhere else.

0:37:59 > 0:38:01I'm really sorry but I need to go.

0:38:01 > 0:38:04You sure you're going to be OK?

0:38:04 > 0:38:05Aye.

0:38:05 > 0:38:09Bottom line is this - you shouldn't be standing here talking to me

0:38:09 > 0:38:13in the freezing cold on your first wedding anniversary.

0:38:13 > 0:38:16There's got to be something better than that, right?

0:38:31 > 0:38:34- Thanks.- What, you serious. 23?

0:38:34 > 0:38:36I swear. I told my mum he was 19.

0:38:36 > 0:38:39She still thought three years was too big an age gap.

0:38:39 > 0:38:40That he'd lead me astray.

0:38:40 > 0:38:41And did he?

0:38:43 > 0:38:46You're not that different to Nicole, after all.

0:38:46 > 0:38:48Maybe that's what I'm afraid of.

0:38:48 > 0:38:50I had five girlfriends once.

0:38:50 > 0:38:53At the same time?

0:38:53 > 0:38:55- Yeah. - What age were you? Six?

0:38:55 > 0:38:59No, it was at university.

0:38:59 > 0:39:03There was Sandra, Janey, Sheila, Patricia and Victoria.

0:39:04 > 0:39:06I just called them all "babe" to save confusion.

0:39:06 > 0:39:08You did not!

0:39:08 > 0:39:09I did. It was fantastic.

0:39:10 > 0:39:12You dark horse.

0:39:12 > 0:39:15I wouldn't do it now obviously. I couldn't anyway.

0:39:15 > 0:39:16It was exhausting.

0:39:16 > 0:39:20I bet it was. So what happened when they all found out?

0:39:20 > 0:39:22They all stayed in the same halls,

0:39:22 > 0:39:24which, in hindsight, was maybe a bit stupid of me.

0:39:26 > 0:39:29Anyway, Sandra caught me with Janey and went ballistic.

0:39:29 > 0:39:32And then before I knew it the others piled in, my clothes went out

0:39:32 > 0:39:35the window and I was chased across the car park in the buff.

0:39:35 > 0:39:36How embarrassing.

0:39:38 > 0:39:41Mind you, I was never short of a girlfriend after that.

0:39:42 > 0:39:43Why?

0:39:45 > 0:39:48Well, I'm not sure the ladies need to know that, Murray.

0:39:48 > 0:39:49What?

0:39:56 > 0:39:58Good grief.

0:39:58 > 0:40:01We'll sit through here.

0:40:11 > 0:40:13Leave it.

0:40:13 > 0:40:14I can't let her go out like that.

0:40:14 > 0:40:17She's just trying to get a rise out of you. Ignore it.

0:40:17 > 0:40:18She'll be fine.

0:41:08 > 0:41:10I'll get the drinks.

0:41:12 > 0:41:13I've left my wallet in the flat.

0:41:13 > 0:41:15Can you tap me a tenner?

0:41:16 > 0:41:18I'll pay you back.

0:41:18 > 0:41:19It's cool. It's just a tenner.

0:41:34 > 0:41:35There's a machine in the toilets.

0:41:37 > 0:41:39As you left the free ones in my office

0:41:39 > 0:41:41I wanted to be sure you were covered.

0:41:41 > 0:41:42So to speak.

0:41:46 > 0:41:50A bit of fun is all very well, but you have to be careful.

0:41:50 > 0:41:53You know what? I'm sick of people sticking their nose in my business.

0:41:53 > 0:41:56Stop parading it around in front of us all then.

0:41:57 > 0:42:01Silly cow won't serve us. Something about you being underage.

0:42:03 > 0:42:05We should never have come here.

0:42:15 > 0:42:17Leyla. Wait.

0:42:19 > 0:42:21Nic.

0:42:22 > 0:42:27- Nicole, where are you going? - I don't know. And I don't care.

0:42:27 > 0:42:30- Anywhere's better than this place. - Just... Please be careful.

0:42:30 > 0:42:32- I'll do what I want. - When are you gonnae be home?

0:42:32 > 0:42:35Depends how much fun we're having.

0:42:40 > 0:42:43Cheers.

0:42:46 > 0:42:47Is Stevie about?

0:42:47 > 0:42:48Can you see him?

0:42:48 > 0:42:49How long will he be?

0:42:49 > 0:42:52Said he's gonnae be about ten minutes...

0:42:52 > 0:42:55You should've seen Nicole over that guy earlier?

0:42:55 > 0:42:56She was all over him like a rash.

0:42:56 > 0:42:58Gie'd me the boak.

0:42:58 > 0:43:00Glad Stevie wasn't here to see it.

0:43:03 > 0:43:07So should you not be home recreating your wedding night?

0:43:07 > 0:43:08Probably.

0:43:08 > 0:43:11So? What you doing here?

0:43:11 > 0:43:13D'you have a row?

0:43:13 > 0:43:15Something like that, aye.

0:43:15 > 0:43:19So should you not be back home trying to sort it all out?

0:43:19 > 0:43:21It's not really any of your business, is it?

0:43:21 > 0:43:24We're family, Stella. Course it's my business.

0:43:25 > 0:43:26What did you do anyway?

0:43:26 > 0:43:29- Nothing.- Can I have a bottle of beer?

0:43:31 > 0:43:34Don't go anywhere. I'm not finished with you yet.

0:43:39 > 0:43:46- I can't believe you're alone on Valentine's Day.- Aye, well. Believe it.- Can I get you a drink?

0:44:33 > 0:44:35We're just going for a drink, aye?

0:44:42 > 0:44:45- All right? - Fine. Yeah.

0:44:47 > 0:44:48Thought you were home with Bob.

0:44:48 > 0:44:50Aye, well, there was a change of plan.

0:44:54 > 0:44:56Where you headed?

0:44:56 > 0:44:57Nowhere.

0:44:57 > 0:45:01She's coming for a drink with me. Why? What's it to you?

0:45:04 > 0:45:06Actually, I've changed my mind.

0:45:06 > 0:45:11- Sorry.- You can't do that.- Ho, are you deaf? Bolt!

0:45:20 > 0:45:21What was all that about?

0:45:22 > 0:45:25I've just had a really bad day, all right?

0:45:25 > 0:45:30- Thought you weren't into Nicole any more.- I'm not.

0:45:30 > 0:45:33Scarlett said you couldn't handle seeing her with that new guy

0:45:33 > 0:45:35she was with. So you buggered off.

0:45:35 > 0:45:39I was giving Lenny the day's takings.

0:45:39 > 0:45:41I couldn't care less what Nicole does.

0:45:41 > 0:45:42Or who she does it with.

0:45:45 > 0:45:48So what happened to the big anniversary dinner?

0:45:50 > 0:45:54Bob threw it back in my face. Pretty much literally.

0:45:55 > 0:45:59So you thought you'd go for a drink with desperado there?

0:45:59 > 0:46:01I came to see you. But you weren't here.

0:46:01 > 0:46:03- So... - You came to see me?

0:46:06 > 0:46:07What for?

0:46:10 > 0:46:16I don't know. I just I needed out of the flat.

0:46:16 > 0:46:18I thought maybe you could cheer me up... I don't know. I just...

0:46:18 > 0:46:20It's all right, you all right?

0:46:25 > 0:46:30Is it all right if I just go upstairs? Sort myself out.

0:46:30 > 0:46:31Sure.

0:48:11 > 0:48:13Raymondo. C'mon, over here.

0:48:16 > 0:48:19Here. You have my seat. I'll get you a drink.

0:48:19 > 0:48:20I'll give you a hand.

0:48:21 > 0:48:23Sit down.

0:48:25 > 0:48:29- What are you playing at? - Just leave it, Miriam.

0:48:29 > 0:48:32No. I won't. What's the matter?

0:48:34 > 0:48:36I don't know what to say to him. It feels awkward.

0:48:38 > 0:48:41Just hand him a pint and ask how it's going.

0:48:44 > 0:48:47All you need to do is say you're sorry.

0:48:48 > 0:48:49And then what?

0:48:49 > 0:48:51I don't know.

0:48:51 > 0:48:54But I'm sure you'll think of something.

0:49:02 > 0:49:05There you go.

0:49:05 > 0:49:06Murray?

0:49:16 > 0:49:17Thanks.

0:49:23 > 0:49:25- Look. I'm... - So. How's it...

0:49:27 > 0:49:30You were saying?

0:49:31 > 0:49:38I've done a few things recently I'm not very proud of.

0:49:38 > 0:49:40Made a few mistakes.

0:49:42 > 0:49:45Now I know I've still got a lot of making up to do

0:49:45 > 0:49:51but it'd mean a lot to me to know we were still pals.

0:49:54 > 0:49:55Course we're pals.

0:50:39 > 0:50:41Any chance of getting served here?

0:50:41 > 0:50:43Your man's only got one set of hands.

0:50:44 > 0:50:46Aye, all right. I'm coming.

0:52:08 > 0:52:11I was about to send out a search party.

0:52:11 > 0:52:14Sorry. I was with Lenny.

0:52:14 > 0:52:16You know what he's like when he gets started.

0:52:16 > 0:52:19No harm done. Seen who just walked in?

0:52:22 > 0:52:24Go and speak to him.

0:52:25 > 0:52:28- I've tried. - Start with sorry. It worked on me.

0:52:36 > 0:52:37Stevie.

0:52:42 > 0:52:43I'm sorry, pal.

0:52:44 > 0:52:49That's all I can say, I'm sorry for all of it.

0:52:49 > 0:52:51That it?

0:52:54 > 0:52:57You scared the hell out of me. All of us.

0:53:00 > 0:53:03I know. You've every right to be angry.

0:53:03 > 0:53:05Cheers for that. That's big of you.

0:53:07 > 0:53:12Stevie. I'm sorry for all of it.

0:53:15 > 0:53:17I'm sorry for Kennedy.

0:53:17 > 0:53:21I'm sorry for all the stupid, selfish things I've done.

0:53:26 > 0:53:31You're like family to me and I don't want to change that.

0:53:38 > 0:53:41You need to know that I am done making mistakes.

0:53:41 > 0:53:46And I am done hurting people that I really care about.

0:53:46 > 0:53:49It's time to turn over a new leaf. Make a fresh start.

0:53:50 > 0:53:53And this time, I'm going to get it right.

0:54:01 > 0:54:02Stevie?

0:54:05 > 0:54:06Raymond. Wait.

0:54:09 > 0:54:13Aye, you made a mistake. A lot of mistakes.

0:54:13 > 0:54:20But that's just life, isn't it? Nothing that cannae be fixed.

0:54:20 > 0:54:23No real harm done, eh?

0:54:23 > 0:54:26- Really?- Aye. Come here.

0:54:31 > 0:54:34- Raymond, I'll be back in a minute, right?- Sure.

0:56:29 > 0:56:31Conor! You're not staying here.

0:56:37 > 0:56:41I think about it all the time, Leyla.

0:56:41 > 0:56:44Poor Nicole, not getting everything her own way. Better run off.
