0:00:04 > 0:00:05Many parents raise their kids on a diet of strict discipline.

0:00:05 > 0:00:09It's our responsibility as parents to be in control of the music

0:00:09 > 0:00:13they listen to, the movies they watch and the friends they have.

0:00:13 > 0:00:16Rigid boundaries.

0:00:16 > 0:00:19Am I friends with my children? No.

0:00:19 > 0:00:21I'm not your friend. I'm your parent.

0:00:21 > 0:00:23And immediate consequences.

0:00:23 > 0:00:25My dad is really strict.

0:00:25 > 0:00:28If you break the rules, he can be very scary.

0:00:30 > 0:00:32But can traditional parenting change the lives of

0:00:32 > 0:00:34rebellious British teenagers?

0:00:34 > 0:00:39I was brought here on this earth to party.

0:00:39 > 0:00:42She can be an absolute nightmare. It's awful.

0:00:42 > 0:00:48My lifestyle is playing Xbox, getting hammered and having sex.

0:00:51 > 0:00:56I went to anger management and got kicked out for being angry.

0:00:56 > 0:00:58No-one can tell me what to do.

0:00:58 > 0:01:01Not even the Queen of England can tell ME what to do.

0:01:02 > 0:01:06He's slapped me, poked me, pushed me. He's done it all.

0:01:07 > 0:01:09I am what I am. If you don't like it, jog on.

0:01:10 > 0:01:16To find out, two teens, who'd never met before, will leave their fraught families behind.

0:01:16 > 0:01:18Maybe she'll come back and be nice.

0:01:18 > 0:01:20- Doubt it.- And head off to the far corners of the world

0:01:20 > 0:01:26where they will live according to strict rules imposed by new parents.

0:01:26 > 0:01:30You are not in the UK! You are in Barbados.

0:01:30 > 0:01:33They're the most awful people I've ever met in my whole life.

0:01:33 > 0:01:37If she wants to throw a hissy fit, she can have her hissy fit.

0:01:37 > 0:01:41- I'm going home.- This is our rule.

0:01:41 > 0:01:44If you're going to cop an attitude about it, forget it.

0:01:44 > 0:01:46What are you going to do? That's what I thought.

0:01:46 > 0:01:47I'm not going to stand there and argue with that psychotic bitch.

0:01:47 > 0:01:52- Seriously!- If this is how they are, I'm sorry for Britain.

0:02:01 > 0:02:02Let's get pissed.

0:02:06 > 0:02:1016-year-old Rosie Hynd is an unstoppable party animal.

0:02:10 > 0:02:14What's the point in going out and being sober?

0:02:14 > 0:02:17Like, it would just be just rubbish.

0:02:17 > 0:02:23She does like to rip the backside out of things, you know, if she's drunk,

0:02:23 > 0:02:25she's not a little bit drunk, she's paralytic.

0:02:25 > 0:02:28- One, two, three, go!- Rosie, listen!

0:02:28 > 0:02:34- Be careful. People could put anything in your drinks.- Ready, girls?

0:02:34 > 0:02:37It's like talking to a brick wall.

0:02:37 > 0:02:40Right now is my time to go crazy really.

0:02:40 > 0:02:42No-one's going to stop me from doing it.

0:02:42 > 0:02:47There's no 'what if'. It's a definite 100% no.

0:02:47 > 0:02:51Rosie's volatile temper leaves mum feeling powerless.

0:02:51 > 0:02:54She's either lovely or she's vile.

0:02:54 > 0:02:58- Put that down. - Oh, just don't start, you two.

0:02:58 > 0:03:04- Shut up!- She's called me the C-word a few times, usually a fat C.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07Rosie, calm down I didn't mean to offend you.

0:03:07 > 0:03:09Don't talk to me.

0:03:09 > 0:03:14To avoid confrontation, mum allows Rosie to rule the roost.

0:03:14 > 0:03:19I have learned to back off. That's just really the only way.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21I didn't mean to offend you.

0:03:21 > 0:03:23Stop talking, then.

0:03:23 > 0:03:27It probably is hard to say no to me, that's why I get away with so much.

0:03:27 > 0:03:32She's very headstrong in everything. She is so determined.

0:03:32 > 0:03:37I would say a master manipulator at the tender age of 16.

0:03:37 > 0:03:44Two years ago, things got much worse at home when Rosie's mum and dad suffered marital problems.

0:03:44 > 0:03:47It's made me overcompensate because

0:03:47 > 0:03:51she's my baby and I can't bear her being hurt.

0:03:51 > 0:03:54It's really wounded her inside, though she won't admit it.

0:03:54 > 0:03:56There is a lot of anger inside her.

0:03:56 > 0:03:57She does have a lot of anger.

0:03:57 > 0:04:01Around this time, Rosie stopped going to school.

0:04:01 > 0:04:03Mum didn't feel strong enough to control her.

0:04:03 > 0:04:07Just before my 14th birthday is when I stopped going to school.

0:04:07 > 0:04:13I just decided that I didn't like it, so I wasn't going to go.

0:04:13 > 0:04:17We had to go to court and that didn't even work.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19Wild horses would not have got her there.

0:04:19 > 0:04:22I have tried everything.

0:04:22 > 0:04:24I'm going to climb over the fence in a minute.

0:04:24 > 0:04:27Mum Lynn is scared that Rosie is hell bent

0:04:27 > 0:04:29on throwing her future away.

0:04:29 > 0:04:33It can't go on like this. Otherwise she's going to have huge problems and

0:04:33 > 0:04:36ruin the rest of her life.

0:04:37 > 0:04:39Stop talking to me like I'm a child because I'm not.

0:04:39 > 0:04:42You are MY child, Nicholas!

0:04:42 > 0:04:46- I'm not a child.- I'm 18 years old.

0:04:46 > 0:04:51'Nick Barrientos may be 18, but he acts more like a boy than a man.'

0:04:51 > 0:04:55He's not growing up. He's a spoiled brat.

0:04:55 > 0:04:58I'm not a child. Don't treat me like one.

0:04:58 > 0:05:02You show me every single day you're a five-year-old child.

0:05:02 > 0:05:04I hate being told what to do.

0:05:04 > 0:05:06Not even the Queen of England can tell me what to do.

0:05:06 > 0:05:10Nick left school with eight GCSEs but refuses to continue

0:05:10 > 0:05:13his education or get a job.

0:05:13 > 0:05:17Hard labour is just scary.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19I can't handle a full-time job. Can I have some money?

0:05:19 > 0:05:23- No.- Why? Please.

0:05:23 > 0:05:29He needs hard work and to realise that he's on planet earth.

0:05:29 > 0:05:34- That's it, yeah. - You need to stop being so lazy.

0:05:35 > 0:05:41Nick's hiding a secret from his mum and step dad Christian, smoking marijuana is his favourite pastime.

0:05:41 > 0:05:47Mum does not know that I smoke a lot of drugs. She would go mad.

0:05:47 > 0:05:50Mum is also keeping secrets from Nick. When he was a

0:05:50 > 0:05:53baby, she fled Colombia to escape from gang violence.

0:05:53 > 0:05:59She refuses to discuss her past life in Colombia or who his father is.

0:05:59 > 0:06:03I never spoke to Nicholas about why I'm here

0:06:04 > 0:06:10because is is a very sensitive part of my life

0:06:10 > 0:06:13that hurts me a lot still.

0:06:13 > 0:06:18With mum and Nick both keeping secrets, their relationship is

0:06:18 > 0:06:20at breaking point.

0:06:20 > 0:06:24Talking to you as your mother, Nicholas.

0:06:24 > 0:06:26Whatever, man.

0:06:26 > 0:06:28I don't like being at home period.

0:06:28 > 0:06:31Straight up. I don't like being at home.

0:06:31 > 0:06:33He needs to sort his life out.

0:06:33 > 0:06:38He is lost. He is absolutely lost.

0:06:45 > 0:06:50In a desperate bid to get their teens to grow up and curb their selfishness, both mums have

0:06:50 > 0:06:53agreed to send them to live with new parents under a strict regime.

0:06:55 > 0:06:58- Love you.- Bye.

0:06:58 > 0:07:02- Bye, darling. Safe journey.- Thanks.

0:07:02 > 0:07:06Obviously, I'm really worried about how she's going

0:07:06 > 0:07:08to react and how she's going to be.

0:07:08 > 0:07:13Rosie doesn't do well with actually being told what to do.

0:07:13 > 0:07:15Be a good boy.

0:07:15 > 0:07:18- Look after yourself.- Yeah.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20- Think about your life.- Right.- OK?

0:07:20 > 0:07:22Yeah. See you later.

0:07:22 > 0:07:24- Love you.- Love you too.

0:07:24 > 0:07:26Ciao.

0:07:28 > 0:07:31I do have worries, yes.

0:07:31 > 0:07:36This experience must be make him to grow up a little bit, to be a man.

0:07:37 > 0:07:42- I'm Nick.- I'm Rosie. - How are you?- Good. You?

0:07:42 > 0:07:45- Are you nervous?- I'm anxious.

0:07:45 > 0:07:47I am. I was crying when my mum left.

0:07:47 > 0:07:51- Seriously?- Yeah. I'm quite worried if they don't like me.

0:07:51 > 0:07:54The British teenagers are being sent

0:07:54 > 0:07:59over 4,000 miles away to the island of Puerto Rico in the Caribbean Sea.

0:08:01 > 0:08:04This isn't a seaside holiday.

0:08:04 > 0:08:07They'll be staying with the Hills - a hard-working Christian family

0:08:07 > 0:08:11who live in an isolated rural area.

0:08:11 > 0:08:15Being a parent is not a popularity contest.

0:08:15 > 0:08:16Side to side now, hard.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18Put some back into it.

0:08:18 > 0:08:21We're firm. We have high expectations.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24We want only the best for our children.

0:08:24 > 0:08:28Dad Ed is a lawyer and wife Marta is a stay-at-home mum

0:08:28 > 0:08:32to nine-year-old Jeremy, 18-year-old Stephanie and Ed Junior, who's 17.

0:08:36 > 0:08:39My parents do not tolerate laziness.

0:08:39 > 0:08:42I need you to get the yellow wheel barrow, quickly.

0:08:42 > 0:08:44Ed and Marta are passionate about

0:08:44 > 0:08:47installing strong work ethics in their children.

0:08:47 > 0:08:51If I'm working, if I'm sweating, everyone

0:08:51 > 0:08:53has to work and sweat with me.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56We believe that he who doesn't work doesn't eat.

0:08:56 > 0:08:59Thank you, Father, for this meal...

0:08:59 > 0:09:02We won't allow them to have dinner, for instance,

0:09:02 > 0:09:04if they don't have their chores done.

0:09:04 > 0:09:09As soon as you're done with that, get the mower out.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16Check the oil.

0:09:16 > 0:09:21Ed and Marta Hill have zero tolerance for disobedience.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24When our parents' authority is challenged, they don't like that.

0:09:27 > 0:09:30Rebellion in the heart of a child must be taken out.

0:09:30 > 0:09:32As soon as I see it, as soon as I hear it,

0:09:32 > 0:09:39as soon as I smell it, it will be dealt with swiftly and severely.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43After a 12-hour flight

0:09:43 > 0:09:48the British teenagers arrive in Puerto Rico's capital city San Juan.

0:09:51 > 0:09:56Puerto Rico's tropical climate attracts five million tourists a year.

0:09:56 > 0:09:59Although Spanish is the first language, it is part

0:09:59 > 0:10:01of the United States.

0:10:01 > 0:10:03It is so nice.

0:10:03 > 0:10:06- I want to go on a cruise. - I want to go to the beach.

0:10:06 > 0:10:10I bet you do. Do you reckon the family speaks English?

0:10:10 > 0:10:13I hope they do. Just if they're dickheads!

0:10:13 > 0:10:18If they're dickheads, they don't know what's coming to them.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21The teens will be staying in the north eastern part of the island,

0:10:21 > 0:10:25bordering a 28,000-acre rainforest, the El Yunque.

0:10:25 > 0:10:29Feels like I'm in the jungle.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34Oh, my God, they look uptight. Oh, no!

0:10:34 > 0:10:37They look like the perfect family.

0:10:37 > 0:10:39- You get out first.- Why?

0:10:39 > 0:10:41Cos... You just get out first!

0:10:43 > 0:10:45Hello, welcome. How are you?

0:10:45 > 0:10:47- Nice to meet you.- Nice to see you.

0:10:47 > 0:10:50I'm Rosie. Sorry, I'm really hot.

0:10:50 > 0:10:53- You probably are.- Nice to meet you.

0:10:53 > 0:10:56- Welcome.- Thank you. Hi, I'm Nick.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58This is my wife, Marta.

0:10:58 > 0:11:00Welcome.

0:11:00 > 0:11:02This is the house.

0:11:02 > 0:11:09That's my son, Edward, my daughter, Stephanie, my youngest, Jeremy.

0:11:09 > 0:11:12Hi, I'm Rosie.

0:11:12 > 0:11:14- Is there crocodiles? - No, no crocodiles.

0:11:14 > 0:11:17- This is Puerto Rico.- I don't know.

0:11:17 > 0:11:20This is civilised.

0:11:20 > 0:11:24- You'll be sharing a bedroom with Stephanie.- That's good.- OK?- Uh-huh.

0:11:24 > 0:11:27Really different to how my room is.

0:11:27 > 0:11:30It's nice, yeah.

0:11:30 > 0:11:32I just want a cigarette.

0:11:34 > 0:11:36Nick will be sharing a room with 17-year-old

0:11:36 > 0:11:38Ed Junior and nine-year-old Jeremy.

0:11:38 > 0:11:42These are Edward's. These are Edward's. The rest is mine.

0:11:42 > 0:11:48It's yours. I never ever had Lego.

0:11:48 > 0:11:50You guys are like the perfect kids, literally.

0:11:50 > 0:11:52You read, do stuff creative.

0:11:52 > 0:11:54I would never do none of this.

0:11:56 > 0:11:59Well, I like them. They look like good kids.

0:11:59 > 0:12:03I was expecting a more shocking kind of kid.

0:12:04 > 0:12:08The kind of, I don't want my kids to turn into.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11I don't know, I think they're kind of like plastic.

0:12:11 > 0:12:14Really? I think they seem really nice, like really nice people.

0:12:14 > 0:12:18- I really want a cigarette.- So do I.

0:12:18 > 0:12:23The Hills believe the children need clear and firm boundaries.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25Come quickly!

0:12:25 > 0:12:28Before the teens can settle in,

0:12:28 > 0:12:32Ed and Marta want to establish what those firm boundaries are.

0:12:32 > 0:12:34Welcome to our house.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36Thank you.

0:12:36 > 0:12:41We'll be your parents for approximately six to seven days.

0:12:41 > 0:12:44I hope that you guys know that you guys aren't on holiday.

0:12:44 > 0:12:47This is two acres of land.

0:12:47 > 0:12:49We expect that you guys pitch in.

0:12:49 > 0:12:52We don't tolerate laziness.

0:12:52 > 0:12:56We kind of live by a rule that if a man doesn't work, he doesn't eat.

0:12:56 > 0:13:03So, that's one of the consequences of not helping out.

0:13:03 > 0:13:05Let me expand that a little bit.

0:13:05 > 0:13:09The more you resist, the more we're going to push.

0:13:09 > 0:13:15So, if you want it easy, you better don't resist.

0:13:15 > 0:13:17If you resist, hmm.

0:13:17 > 0:13:19OK?

0:13:19 > 0:13:22We expect obedience and respect.

0:13:22 > 0:13:25I don't enjoy being talked back to.

0:13:25 > 0:13:28I don't enjoy smart-mouthing.

0:13:28 > 0:13:31The idea is that we live civilly together, that we live...

0:13:31 > 0:13:35It's not civil, though, is it?

0:13:35 > 0:13:39- It's like state penitentiary or something.- It's not a jail.

0:13:39 > 0:13:41- It is.- Not at all.

0:13:41 > 0:13:43You take the next one?

0:13:43 > 0:13:46No smoking cigarettes

0:13:46 > 0:13:49or tobacco during your entire stay

0:13:49 > 0:13:53- in Puerto Rico, period. - Because I am a lawyer,

0:13:53 > 0:14:00I'm going to have you guys sign this set of rules as a contract with me.

0:14:00 > 0:14:02All right, guys? There you go.

0:14:02 > 0:14:04Sign your names on the dotted line.

0:14:04 > 0:14:07And we're ready to rumble.

0:14:07 > 0:14:10- I'm not not smoking. - I can't not smoke.

0:14:10 > 0:14:16- I'm addicted. It's as simple as that.- So you guys aren't going

0:14:16 > 0:14:19to sign the contract because of this?

0:14:19 > 0:14:22I can't do it, sorry.

0:14:24 > 0:14:27I don't have to sit at this table any more.

0:14:27 > 0:14:31In the face of immediate defiance, Ed decides to stamp his authority on the teens.

0:14:31 > 0:14:35(CRYING) I'm going to the room.

0:14:35 > 0:14:37Well, before

0:14:37 > 0:14:40you go into your room, I will be going into your room

0:14:40 > 0:14:43and I will be going and taking your cigarettes away.

0:14:43 > 0:14:45- Really?- Yes, really.

0:14:45 > 0:14:48I don't think... I don't think so.

0:14:48 > 0:14:53And I'm also going into Nick's room.

0:14:53 > 0:14:55- I'm going to take the cigarettes. - Go on, do it.

0:14:55 > 0:14:57- I will do it.- Good.

0:15:05 > 0:15:07I need these cigarettes found.

0:15:09 > 0:15:12Ed's determined to show the teens who's boss.

0:15:12 > 0:15:17But the shock of his rules has driven Rosie and Nick to light up.

0:15:17 > 0:15:19That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever

0:15:19 > 0:15:21heard in my life, man. No.

0:15:21 > 0:15:25It just makes it all the better.

0:15:25 > 0:15:27Hate them.

0:15:27 > 0:15:29You have to earn respect. You can't just, like...

0:15:29 > 0:15:32- I don't know who the- BLEEP- he is.

0:15:33 > 0:15:36'What's he going to do, go through all my underwear?'

0:15:37 > 0:15:41My mum and dad would never do that to anyone.

0:15:41 > 0:15:44Saying we've got to help around the house, it's not our house.

0:15:44 > 0:15:49- I can't find Nick's cigarettes. - They must have them with them. - They must have them on their body.

0:15:49 > 0:15:52The teens think they've won a victory.

0:15:52 > 0:15:54But Ed has other ideas.

0:15:54 > 0:15:58- Would you like one?- No.

0:15:58 > 0:16:02- You sure?- You guys have already decided to disrespect me.

0:16:02 > 0:16:06- You guys have already... - Respect has to be earned.

0:16:06 > 0:16:09Can I finish, honey? You already cussed in the house.

0:16:09 > 0:16:13Bleep this, as you're standing in my house

0:16:13 > 0:16:18I would hate for further consequences to occur.

0:16:18 > 0:16:20- So guys need to stop. - You know what...

0:16:20 > 0:16:22I'm reasoning with you guys.

0:16:22 > 0:16:24I'm 18 years old.

0:16:24 > 0:16:27I am legally allowed to smoke this.

0:16:27 > 0:16:29You have respect for me, I will give you respect.

0:16:29 > 0:16:33That's how I work. Simple as.

0:16:33 > 0:16:36All right. Here's this.

0:16:36 > 0:16:40Listen to me. You will not smoke...

0:16:40 > 0:16:43SHE SCOFFS

0:16:44 > 0:16:46..inside of the house.

0:16:46 > 0:16:50- Fair enough. - The no-smoking rule will be bent.

0:16:50 > 0:16:56Every other rule will be respected and tolerated.

0:16:56 > 0:16:59If you agree to that right now, you have to put out

0:16:59 > 0:17:03the cigarette and we have to go back and sign the contract.

0:17:06 > 0:17:11I considered that the smoking was a minor issue in their lives and I had

0:17:11 > 0:17:13bigger battles to fight with them.

0:17:13 > 0:17:16We have an understanding

0:17:16 > 0:17:19and I expect that you guys will do all right.

0:17:22 > 0:17:26OK? Signed, sealed and delivered. The hard part is over.

0:17:26 > 0:17:31Let's get some stuff done so we can have some dinner.

0:17:34 > 0:17:36The Hills work together every day

0:17:36 > 0:17:41as a team and look forward to their evening meal for family discussion.

0:17:41 > 0:17:43Dig in, dig in. Pass it down.

0:17:43 > 0:17:46Pass it all around.

0:17:46 > 0:17:51- So, Nick, do you have hobbies? - I don't do much other than get high.

0:17:51 > 0:17:54- Huh?- I don't do much other than get high.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57- That's all you do? - Yeah, pretty much.- Getting high?

0:17:57 > 0:17:59OK. What do you use to get high?

0:17:59 > 0:18:02Cannabis. I don't smoke anything else.

0:18:02 > 0:18:05- Smoking what?- Cannabis.

0:18:05 > 0:18:07OK, marijuana.

0:18:07 > 0:18:10- Yeah.- I drink quite a lot.

0:18:10 > 0:18:13What do you drink? Beer, wine?

0:18:13 > 0:18:15Vodka.

0:18:15 > 0:18:19- That's hard.- Yeah.

0:18:19 > 0:18:26- Me and one of my old friends that could go through, like, five bottles of wine between us.- You and a friend?

0:18:26 > 0:18:29Five bottles of wine?

0:18:29 > 0:18:31- Yeah.- How do you keep it down?

0:18:31 > 0:18:34We just pass out.

0:18:34 > 0:18:37So, what is school life like?

0:18:37 > 0:18:40- Rubbish.- I done terrible in school. I done really badly.

0:18:40 > 0:18:42I got kicked out of most things.

0:18:42 > 0:18:47I stopped going to school when I was, like, 14 or whatever.

0:18:47 > 0:18:49But are you allowed to stop at 14?

0:18:49 > 0:18:54No, you're not allowed, I just did because I hated it.

0:18:54 > 0:18:59My mum got taken to court because she couldn't make me,

0:18:59 > 0:19:02she couldn't drag me into school.

0:19:03 > 0:19:05Oh, boy.

0:19:05 > 0:19:09Well tomorrow we'll be doing some school.

0:19:09 > 0:19:14We consider that having an education is super important.

0:19:14 > 0:19:19And I quite frankly expect that you guys do well.

0:19:19 > 0:19:21Let's pick up.

0:19:21 > 0:19:25Everybody take your plate and let's go.

0:19:33 > 0:19:35I can't even explain

0:19:35 > 0:19:38how different they are to my parents. Do you like them?

0:19:38 > 0:19:41No, not really.

0:19:41 > 0:19:45My mum is quite strict, but not, like, not to that point.

0:19:45 > 0:19:48- There's no comparison. - It's unreasonable.

0:19:48 > 0:19:50Yeah, right.

0:19:50 > 0:19:52We've got to get up at 5 as well.

0:19:52 > 0:19:56- For school. Yay(!) - Getting up for school.

0:19:56 > 0:19:58I haven't got up for school for so long.

0:19:58 > 0:20:01- Me neither.- It's weird.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12Morning, girls. Up, up, up.

0:20:12 > 0:20:18Today Rosie will attend school for the first time in two years.

0:20:21 > 0:20:23- You want some coffee?- Yeah.

0:20:23 > 0:20:28All right, I'll make you a cup of coffee and get dressed.

0:20:28 > 0:20:31It's going to be your skirt. You're going to be wearing a skirt.

0:20:31 > 0:20:35In Puerto Rico, full school uniform is compulsory.

0:20:35 > 0:20:38- You don't like wearing skirts? - I don't like those skirts, no.

0:20:38 > 0:20:41Nine minutes, let's do this.

0:20:41 > 0:20:46I think it's a load of bullshit. This uniform's not going to last, don't worry.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Five minutes, guys.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54This skirt is ridiculous. I look like a dick.

0:20:56 > 0:20:59Button up. Let's do this. I got to go.

0:20:59 > 0:21:07Puerto Rico has one of the highest college education rates in the whole world, ranking sixth.

0:21:10 > 0:21:12Nick and Rosie will be attending Bonneville,

0:21:12 > 0:21:18a private school with a reputation for high-achieving, disciplined students.

0:21:20 > 0:21:25- You guys will be... Nick!- What?! - The shirt.- I can't tuck it in, man. It looks weird.

0:21:25 > 0:21:29Listen, Nick, you're going to wear the shirt tucked in. Go on, now.

0:21:29 > 0:21:33You're a reflection of me and my household.

0:21:33 > 0:21:37I want you guys to reflect me. Come on. Let's get into school.

0:21:43 > 0:21:49Before they can start class, the teens must meet with headmistress Mrs Ruiz

0:21:49 > 0:21:51to go over the school rules.

0:21:51 > 0:21:55We don't allow any glasses, sunglasses, at any moment.

0:21:57 > 0:22:01So, we can go over some of the basic rules of this school.

0:22:01 > 0:22:06We don't allow hats. You cannot stay with that hat, with the beanie, OK?

0:22:06 > 0:22:10Boys must wear their polos or shirts tucked in with a belt and black shoes.

0:22:10 > 0:22:13Our school has no tolerance of the following - no cigarettes,

0:22:13 > 0:22:17no bullying or fighting, no weapons, knives, guns etc.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19Students will be expelled

0:22:19 > 0:22:21immediately if they are involved in any of the above.

0:22:21 > 0:22:23Students that show lack of respect

0:22:23 > 0:22:26to a teacher or staff member will be sent to the office immediately.

0:22:26 > 0:22:32- Questions?- You will find that they're very responsive.- OK, good.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34Let's move on and let's go this way.

0:22:34 > 0:22:38Rosie and Nick will join the senior pupils for registration with teacher

0:22:38 > 0:22:40Mrs Diaz.

0:22:40 > 0:22:43I think they're going to shine

0:22:43 > 0:22:49because I think that they want to be examples of what a good kid is.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Good morning.

0:22:51 > 0:22:54The new pupils are asked to introduce themselves to

0:22:54 > 0:22:56the rest of the class.

0:22:56 > 0:22:59My name's Rosie and I'm from England.

0:22:59 > 0:23:04I didn't really like school, so I stopped going when I was, like, 14.

0:23:04 > 0:23:07What do you do on your weekends?

0:23:07 > 0:23:08Get wrecked.

0:23:08 > 0:23:12Really, like, yeah, there's quite a lot of parties.

0:23:12 > 0:23:14I drink quite a lot of alcohol.

0:23:14 > 0:23:18I started drinking when I was, like, 13 maybe.

0:23:18 > 0:23:20- How old are you now?- 16.

0:23:20 > 0:23:24Oh, my God, you don't look 16.

0:23:24 > 0:23:27Any other questions?

0:23:27 > 0:23:29Please, feel free. Thank you.

0:23:33 > 0:23:35What's going on, everyone? I'm Nick.

0:23:35 > 0:23:38I'm from London.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40I went to school, didn't like it, got kicked out.

0:23:40 > 0:23:44You say you got kicked out of school, for what reasons?

0:23:44 > 0:23:47Being rude to teachers, fighting, smoking on school premises.

0:23:47 > 0:23:49I think that's it.

0:23:49 > 0:23:52I'm speechless, actually.

0:23:52 > 0:23:58What I do on the weekend, I smoke a lot of drugs and listen to music.

0:23:58 > 0:24:01If I were you, I wouldn't do that, man.

0:24:01 > 0:24:05In your life, you can have so much future without using drugs, man.

0:24:05 > 0:24:09OK, guys. Let's start with the class then.

0:24:09 > 0:24:11Excuse me.

0:24:13 > 0:24:17- Rosie, do you have a copy? - No. What is it?

0:24:17 > 0:24:20It says class rules...

0:24:20 > 0:24:25After registration, the teacher runs through the school rules.

0:24:25 > 0:24:28But Rosie and Nick aren't listening.

0:24:28 > 0:24:30You know that you will not get a late pass.

0:24:30 > 0:24:33So be here on time.

0:24:33 > 0:24:38You remain seated until I say that the class is dismissed.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40It's a two-way street.

0:24:40 > 0:24:43I respect you and you respect me.

0:24:43 > 0:24:46I think Nick and Rosie do have a lot of freedom.

0:24:46 > 0:24:51But I think they use it in wrong ways.

0:24:51 > 0:24:54I think their lack of motivation is really sad.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56If you don't get motivated for

0:24:56 > 0:24:59your education, you're not going to have a good future.

0:25:00 > 0:25:04You really do need to have your shirt tucked in. If not you'll be sent to the office.

0:25:06 > 0:25:13One hour into their school life in Puerto Rico, Rosie and Nick decide to skip class.

0:25:13 > 0:25:17No pupils are allowed to wander the campus during class time

0:25:17 > 0:25:22and headmistress Mrs Ruiz spots the teens flouting the rules.

0:25:22 > 0:25:26- Why are you out of class? - We're going to class in a minute.

0:25:26 > 0:25:29No. You're not supposed to be here now. You need to go to class.

0:25:29 > 0:25:32- I don't know where the class is. - Where's your schedule?- Here.

0:25:35 > 0:25:409:30. You're supposed to go to room 29. Let's go.

0:25:40 > 0:25:43I don't want to be here anyway.

0:25:43 > 0:25:46You go to Math or you go to my office and we'll call your parents.

0:25:46 > 0:25:48- Right, let's go to the office. - Let's go to the office.

0:25:48 > 0:25:53Students in Puerto Rico at your age, they all go to school.

0:25:53 > 0:25:54I don't like school.

0:25:54 > 0:25:57I didn't go to school in England.

0:25:57 > 0:26:01Why am I going to come to school in, like, Puerto Rico?

0:26:01 > 0:26:04I just don't like school, simple as. Plain and simple.

0:26:04 > 0:26:09So, what are your expectations when you grow up, when you're a man?

0:26:09 > 0:26:11I'm not thinking about the future yet.

0:26:11 > 0:26:14You're not thinking about your future? It's coming right away.

0:26:14 > 0:26:17- You just told me you're a man. - Yeah, I know. I am.

0:26:17 > 0:26:20But I don't need to think about it right now, so I'm not going to.

0:26:20 > 0:26:24- Do your parents pay for everything for you?- Pretty much.

0:26:24 > 0:26:26Pretty much.

0:26:26 > 0:26:27You're a lucky guy.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34This is the way Bonneville is run.

0:26:34 > 0:26:39I cannot have a bad example for my younger kids. I'm sorry.

0:26:39 > 0:26:44Ed has been called away from work to collect Nick and Rosie from school.

0:26:48 > 0:26:52Depending on how he acts now, this could be make or break, literally.

0:26:52 > 0:26:59- Seriously, if he's a- BLEEP, - then I'm not going to...

0:26:59 > 0:27:03No way. Not going to do it.

0:27:05 > 0:27:09They don't want to stay in class. I cannot have students outside the classrooms.

0:27:09 > 0:27:11They disobey our rules

0:27:11 > 0:27:13and unfortunately they cannot come back to school.

0:27:13 > 0:27:18If they were to change their attitude would they be allowed to come back?

0:27:18 > 0:27:20No, I'm sorry.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23They told me that they came for a holiday to Puerto Rico.

0:27:23 > 0:27:28- They certainly didn't come for a holiday.- Well...- Thank you.

0:27:30 > 0:27:33The British teens are permanently excluded.

0:27:33 > 0:27:37Their school life in Puerto Rico is over.

0:27:37 > 0:27:39All right, guys, let's go.

0:27:41 > 0:27:43I'm irate.

0:27:43 > 0:27:45I'm very angry.

0:27:45 > 0:27:47They're acting like babies

0:27:47 > 0:27:51and they can't get through a day of school.

0:27:51 > 0:27:53A simple day of school.

0:27:53 > 0:28:00So when Rosie wanders off to swap mobile numbers, it's the final straw.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03Rosie! Rosie, right now!

0:28:04 > 0:28:06Right now! Right now!

0:28:06 > 0:28:08Right now!

0:28:10 > 0:28:14- It's a phone number. It's my property.- Can I talk to you?

0:28:14 > 0:28:16No, no. What you doing, man?

0:28:16 > 0:28:19Leave 'em alone. They ain't got nothing to do with it.

0:28:19 > 0:28:23- No, you don't have to talk to him. - BLEEP.- Don't worry, man.

0:28:23 > 0:28:25Just leave him. He's a bit cranky.

0:28:25 > 0:28:27Did you just say... Did you just say "BLEEP"?

0:28:27 > 0:28:29Yeah, I did. What are you going to do?

0:28:29 > 0:28:31That's what I thought.

0:28:31 > 0:28:34Pissy old man. Being rude.

0:28:35 > 0:28:38You guys have breached every agreement.

0:28:38 > 0:28:41- I don't give two flying- BLEEP.

0:28:41 > 0:28:44Look, I swore - loads. Oh, well. Life goes on.

0:28:44 > 0:28:46It's just a word. Jeez.

0:28:49 > 0:28:52I will not be embarrassed in public.

0:28:52 > 0:28:55There's going to be trouble at home tonight.

0:29:08 > 0:29:12Ed tells Marta about the teens' appalling behaviour at school.

0:29:12 > 0:29:18Not two periods went by that they've already been kicked out of school.

0:29:18 > 0:29:21ALREADY kicked out of school.

0:29:21 > 0:29:24So, I guess that they're not going to have...

0:29:24 > 0:29:26fun at all.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29There's no privileges. It's over. They get nothing.

0:29:29 > 0:29:32I'm sick of this already.

0:29:32 > 0:29:34And Nick dared to talk back to me.

0:29:34 > 0:29:37Nick dared to speak foul language to me.

0:29:37 > 0:29:42They act like just a bunch of spoiled brats. That's what they are.

0:29:44 > 0:29:45Let's put them to work...

0:29:45 > 0:29:49Ed calls them to the table one at a time to hand out their punishment.

0:29:49 > 0:29:53When I went to pick you up, you belched out

0:29:53 > 0:29:54a bunch of cuss words

0:29:54 > 0:29:56to ME.

0:29:56 > 0:30:00But you was being rude to Rosie. I don't care. You was.

0:30:00 > 0:30:03You were shouting at her like she was a seven-year-old girl.

0:30:03 > 0:30:06I'm not going to stand for that. She's my friend. I'm going to look out for her.

0:30:06 > 0:30:09Frankly, you don't need to stick up for her.

0:30:09 > 0:30:12- I have to stick up for her. - At that age you're supposed

0:30:12 > 0:30:15to obey your parents and you're not doing that.

0:30:15 > 0:30:16You're just looking after me.

0:30:16 > 0:30:20- That's it. You're not my parents. - Is that what do you think?

0:30:20 > 0:30:25- Yeah.- Now Nick, you've breached a series of covenants.

0:30:25 > 0:30:30There are going to be consequences to breaching those covenants.

0:30:30 > 0:30:34I'm going to get changed and you're going to help me out in the backyard.

0:30:34 > 0:30:36- Really?- Yes.- I'm not.

0:30:38 > 0:30:41Go to your room and cool off.

0:30:46 > 0:30:50This guy keeps trying to think I'm his son and it's pissing me off.

0:30:50 > 0:30:53I've got my dad and he's the person that's like that to me.

0:30:53 > 0:30:56No-one else can ever take up that position in my life,

0:30:56 > 0:30:58no-one, simple as.

0:30:59 > 0:31:03This is so hard. It's harder than I thought.

0:31:03 > 0:31:06- Want a cup of coffee?- Yes.

0:31:08 > 0:31:09I'm going to need it.

0:31:09 > 0:31:12- You're not going to work?- No.

0:31:12 > 0:31:17- What did they say? - They were just like, "There's going to be consequences." How can he talk

0:31:17 > 0:31:21- to me like that and expect me to abide by his- BLEEP- rules?

0:31:21 > 0:31:24- I've been doing it for 17 years! - I don't know how!

0:31:24 > 0:31:29Come to England and you'll see a whole new different light on things.

0:31:29 > 0:31:31Seriously. Does it not annoy you?

0:31:31 > 0:31:35- No.- It's because he's used to it.

0:31:35 > 0:31:37He doesn't know any other way.

0:31:37 > 0:31:39You have no idea.

0:31:39 > 0:31:41- 'Rosie?'- What?

0:31:41 > 0:31:42Your turn.

0:31:42 > 0:31:47The Hills believe in rewarding good behaviour and punishing bad.

0:31:47 > 0:31:51So Rosie must also be reprimanded for skipping class.

0:31:52 > 0:31:55The consequences are severe.

0:31:55 > 0:31:57You have no privileges, Rosie.

0:31:57 > 0:31:59You're not allowed to use the internet.

0:31:59 > 0:32:02You're not allowed to use the telephone.

0:32:02 > 0:32:04You're not allowed to watch television.

0:32:04 > 0:32:07You will help out and you WILL help out.

0:32:10 > 0:32:12I'm going home.

0:32:16 > 0:32:21I don't want to be with these people. I don't like them.

0:32:21 > 0:32:23They're nothing to me.

0:32:27 > 0:32:31I can see her getting angry as well. It's kind of cool.

0:32:31 > 0:32:35Rosie is intent on leaving, but there is nowhere to go. The Hills'

0:32:35 > 0:32:39nearest neighbour is over a mile away through a tropical rainforest.

0:32:40 > 0:32:43Due to the dangers in Puerto Rico,

0:32:43 > 0:32:46the Hills don't allow their kids out of the grounds unaccompanied.

0:32:46 > 0:32:50- I'm- BLEEP- getting them to open it up, I'm not staying here.

0:32:50 > 0:32:54- How can you actually do this? - I don't know.

0:32:56 > 0:32:58- I'm not staying in this- BLEEP.

0:32:58 > 0:33:03They're the most awful people I've ever met in my whole life, ever.

0:33:03 > 0:33:07Ed's tactic is to ignore Rosie's attempted escape

0:33:07 > 0:33:11and the Hills carry on with household chores.

0:33:11 > 0:33:14Oi, dickhead, open the gate!

0:33:15 > 0:33:17Open the gate!

0:33:19 > 0:33:22Answer me when I'm talking to you! Open the gate.

0:33:22 > 0:33:26I'm going to bash your house until you open the gate.

0:33:26 > 0:33:31'If she wants to get into a bickering match, I'm not going to.'

0:33:31 > 0:33:34If she wants to rid herself of our authority,

0:33:34 > 0:33:36I'm going to allow her to have her tantrum.

0:33:36 > 0:33:39I think she'll do fine after she has a tantrum.

0:33:39 > 0:33:44- The keys to get out of the gate. - All right, honey, go try those keys.

0:33:44 > 0:33:46- What- BLEEP- key is this?

0:33:46 > 0:33:50- I'll- BLEEP- drive one of your - BLEEP- cars.- That's a car key.

0:33:50 > 0:33:52That car isn't here any more.

0:33:54 > 0:33:56Well, you won't mind if I do this, then, will you?

0:34:03 > 0:34:08- No.- Good. Give me the keys to open the gate. I'm not staying here.

0:34:09 > 0:34:10I can't, honey.

0:34:10 > 0:34:13Don't call me honey! All right?

0:34:13 > 0:34:15He's not going to back down.

0:34:15 > 0:34:19So that's why I would probably snigger every now and then

0:34:19 > 0:34:24when they would try to disobey my father. I'm like, "Uh-oh."

0:34:27 > 0:34:31Can you come and open the gate? Please, "Dad".

0:34:34 > 0:34:37- No.- Why not? I will smash your car window!

0:34:37 > 0:34:39Why don't you go lie down for a while?

0:34:39 > 0:34:41I don't want to lie down!

0:34:41 > 0:34:44- I want to get out of this- BLEEP.

0:34:44 > 0:34:45Why?

0:34:47 > 0:34:50- TEARFULLY:- Can you not ignore me?!

0:34:53 > 0:34:55Why won't you open the gate?

0:34:58 > 0:35:01Why won't you open the gate?

0:35:10 > 0:35:13It's been eight hours since the standoff began

0:35:13 > 0:35:16between the British teens and the Hill family.

0:35:16 > 0:35:20It's almost 7pm. We're going to sit down and have dinner.

0:35:20 > 0:35:21If she wants to sleep outside,

0:35:21 > 0:35:26enjoy the company because there's lots of it. Listen to it.

0:35:26 > 0:35:28CROAKING AND CHIRPING

0:35:28 > 0:35:31Father, bless this meal

0:35:31 > 0:35:36and provide for those who do not have and look upon our guests

0:35:36 > 0:35:40and bless them. Look at their attitudes, look at their rebellion.

0:35:40 > 0:35:42I pray in the name of Jesus, amen.

0:35:45 > 0:35:46Dig in.

0:35:46 > 0:35:49- How's that? Is that good?- Yes.

0:35:51 > 0:35:54- We're going to smoke in their car. - SHE GIGGLES

0:35:57 > 0:36:00'She can have a tantrum all week if she'd like.'

0:36:00 > 0:36:02It's up to her.

0:36:02 > 0:36:04'But I'm not budging.

0:36:04 > 0:36:07'I'm not playing games.'

0:36:07 > 0:36:11I've gone as far as I can with her and this is the line. CAR HORN HONKS

0:36:11 > 0:36:14CAR HORN HONKS REPEATEDLY

0:36:33 > 0:36:38Disconnecting the car battery, Ed defeats Rosie yet again.

0:36:38 > 0:36:39Good idea.

0:36:45 > 0:36:49I am not staying here.

0:36:49 > 0:36:52I don't understand why you won't kick me out.

0:36:52 > 0:36:54- I don't want to kick you out.- Why?!

0:36:54 > 0:36:57What do I have to do to be kicked out?

0:37:00 > 0:37:03Should I teach your little boy some really bad swear words,

0:37:03 > 0:37:05would that work?

0:37:07 > 0:37:12Let me tell you this, today you have shown me that in fact,

0:37:12 > 0:37:16you are not 16, you are six years old.

0:37:16 > 0:37:19- Well...- Have your fit and when we're done,

0:37:19 > 0:37:22when you're done then... I'm done with you. I'm done.

0:37:22 > 0:37:25- I'm not fitting. Listen. - I'm done with you.

0:37:25 > 0:37:27How do you expect me to...?

0:37:29 > 0:37:33How do you expect me to talk to you like an adult with respect,

0:37:33 > 0:37:35when you're treating me like I'm...

0:37:35 > 0:37:37SHE GROANS

0:37:44 > 0:37:48It's approaching midnight and Nick is beginning to flag.

0:37:51 > 0:37:54You got to have balls of steel, seriously, it's not easy at all.

0:37:57 > 0:38:01The easiest way is to say sorry and go inside and sleep, have a shower.

0:38:04 > 0:38:06I feel like I've failed.

0:38:06 > 0:38:08You haven't failed.

0:38:08 > 0:38:11You just don't want to sleep out here.

0:38:11 > 0:38:14That's the only reason I'm saying sorry. There's no other reason.

0:38:14 > 0:38:18- I wouldn't say sorry otherwise. - I was out of order.

0:38:18 > 0:38:19I don't think you was.

0:38:19 > 0:38:22I was. I was completely out of order.

0:38:22 > 0:38:26It was disgusting, my behaviour.

0:38:27 > 0:38:28So, just do it.

0:38:33 > 0:38:36Ed's firm stance has finally broken the teens.

0:38:43 > 0:38:46I wanted to apologise for the way that I spoke to you

0:38:46 > 0:38:51and your wife earlier. And I am truly sorry.

0:38:51 > 0:38:53I really regret speaking to you the way I did.

0:38:53 > 0:38:56It was completely uncalled for.

0:38:58 > 0:39:00Are you going to follow the rules?

0:39:00 > 0:39:03For the rest of the time I'm here, I'm going to follow your rules.

0:39:03 > 0:39:09My house, my rules. I'm sorry. That's what I want to hear.

0:39:09 > 0:39:11It's your house,

0:39:11 > 0:39:13they're your rules and I'm sorry.

0:39:13 > 0:39:18I want you to take a shower and I want you to go to bed.

0:39:18 > 0:39:21Right now. Nick stays.

0:39:22 > 0:39:25'I can't believe he's still talking to me, after the way

0:39:25 > 0:39:29'I spoke to him, really. There's no point in kicking off'

0:39:29 > 0:39:32because he's not going to send me home.

0:39:32 > 0:39:37I don't kick off like that at home because I don't need to.

0:39:37 > 0:39:40Because, like, my mum, like....

0:39:43 > 0:39:45..she never treats me like that.

0:39:45 > 0:39:51Look me straight in the eye, like a man, and I want you to tell me...

0:39:52 > 0:39:57..my house, my rules. I'm sorry.

0:39:57 > 0:39:59It's your house, your rules and I'm sorry.

0:39:59 > 0:40:02But there's one thing that I do... I would like to say...

0:40:05 > 0:40:07I don't appreciate you trying to be my dad

0:40:07 > 0:40:12because I've got quite bad father issues and it's not helping me.

0:40:14 > 0:40:18Nick doesn't know his real dad and has never met him.

0:40:18 > 0:40:23When he was little, his mother left his father and fled Colombia in fear of her life.

0:40:23 > 0:40:28I was shot in my back two times and in my arm.

0:40:28 > 0:40:31It was very bad. It was very bad.

0:40:31 > 0:40:35Then I have to leave the country.

0:40:35 > 0:40:36As far as I could.

0:40:36 > 0:40:41The events were so traumatic, Anna doesn't talk about it.

0:40:41 > 0:40:44And Nick suspects his father was involved in the shooting.

0:40:44 > 0:40:50Nicholas didn't know that I was shot until two years ago.

0:40:50 > 0:40:55Because he sees my scars, he came and asked me.

0:40:55 > 0:40:58I have to say, "Yes, I was shot..."

0:40:58 > 0:41:02And he didn't ask anything else.

0:41:03 > 0:41:07His step dad Christian is the only father Nick has ever known.

0:41:07 > 0:41:10I don't mind you being, like, friendly and whatever,

0:41:10 > 0:41:14but I don't want you to try and think you're my dad because

0:41:14 > 0:41:19I've only got one dad and he's... I care for him a lot.

0:41:21 > 0:41:24I am in no way, shape or form

0:41:24 > 0:41:26trying to...

0:41:26 > 0:41:29elbow your stepfather out of the picture...

0:41:30 > 0:41:32..at all.

0:41:32 > 0:41:34But your stepdad and I

0:41:34 > 0:41:36have formed a team.

0:41:37 > 0:41:39Are we good?

0:41:39 > 0:41:41Tomorrow we'll talk about the rest.

0:41:41 > 0:41:43- Go on.- Thanks.

0:41:58 > 0:42:00- Breakfast good?- Delicious.

0:42:00 > 0:42:01Good.

0:42:01 > 0:42:04Ed's back in the driving seat.

0:42:04 > 0:42:09To ensure the teens play by the rules, he decides to put them

0:42:09 > 0:42:12to work around the house under his beady eye.

0:42:12 > 0:42:17Around here, boys work outside and girls work inside.

0:42:17 > 0:42:18- Rosie...- Yeah.

0:42:20 > 0:42:23You can start...over there.

0:42:31 > 0:42:34If my mum told me to do this, I'd tell her to go away.

0:42:34 > 0:42:37Come on, that's a ridiculous amount of grass to cut!

0:42:44 > 0:42:46You missed a spot. Right here.

0:42:50 > 0:42:52Start raking.

0:42:53 > 0:42:55He's doing really well.

0:42:55 > 0:42:57He's taken a crack at it.

0:42:57 > 0:43:01It looks like he's doing just fine.

0:43:05 > 0:43:09To reinforce Nick's new found work ethic, Ed is taking him

0:43:09 > 0:43:14to the Casa de ninos foster home to meet the manager.

0:43:14 > 0:43:17Hi, Nick. Welcome.

0:43:17 > 0:43:21The shirt says Mr Lazy, but on the inside he's a strong and valiant man.

0:43:21 > 0:43:24- I know it. - I'm sure that's true.

0:43:24 > 0:43:30Nick is shown around by Carlos, a volunteer who used to live in the home.

0:43:30 > 0:43:32I got here when I was nine years old.

0:43:32 > 0:43:35I stayed until I was 19.

0:43:36 > 0:43:39It's weird seeing that everyone has to share a room.

0:43:39 > 0:43:43It's very difficult at first when you get here.

0:43:43 > 0:43:45But you get used to it.

0:43:46 > 0:43:51The 50 boys in the foster home must do chores AND go to school.

0:43:55 > 0:43:59- Do you get to do chores in your house?- My room is horrible. I hardly ever clean it.

0:44:01 > 0:44:05I am hardly at home, I don't really have time to clean my room.

0:44:05 > 0:44:07The kids here get to do this every day.

0:44:09 > 0:44:14From Mondays to Fridays, sometimes on Sunday.

0:44:14 > 0:44:17My mum mostly does all the chores.

0:44:17 > 0:44:19Actually, my mum does a lot for me at home.

0:44:19 > 0:44:22It's so good to have family. Someone that cares for you

0:44:22 > 0:44:27and when you have a problem, they're there for you.

0:44:27 > 0:44:31You have your mum. I don't have mine, but I'm grateful for what I have.

0:44:31 > 0:44:35I'm going to take that. I'm going to listen to your advice.

0:44:35 > 0:44:38I'm going to help my mum more when I get home.

0:44:38 > 0:44:42I didn't really... Ididn't do it at all. I'm not going to lie.

0:44:42 > 0:44:45Apart from to help myself, which is kind of selfish.

0:44:47 > 0:44:52None of these kids have anything, literally, they've got nothing.

0:44:52 > 0:44:56Every kid needs like a father figure or mother figure growing up.

0:44:56 > 0:44:59I wish I could talk to my mum.

0:44:59 > 0:45:02I think I'm old enough to know the truth.

0:45:02 > 0:45:06I want to, like, know the full story because

0:45:06 > 0:45:08she always bursts into tears

0:45:08 > 0:45:11whenever she mentions anything like that.

0:45:11 > 0:45:16I don't really know anything about it, or I don't know much about it.

0:45:16 > 0:45:18But I do know that she went through a lot,

0:45:18 > 0:45:20a lot of...

0:45:21 > 0:45:24..hard, like, heartache for me.

0:45:29 > 0:45:31Back home, Marta steps in to help Nick

0:45:31 > 0:45:34with his confused feelings about his parents.

0:45:36 > 0:45:38I would like to know about her past.

0:45:38 > 0:45:41I know some of it, but I don't know the full story.

0:45:41 > 0:45:46I think it was either my dad or someone working for my dad that shot

0:45:46 > 0:45:50my mum. That's only trying to piece together everything that happened.

0:45:50 > 0:45:54I've always thought that my mum got shot because of me.

0:45:54 > 0:45:57I've always thought it was my fault.

0:45:57 > 0:45:58And...

0:46:03 > 0:46:07..I've always thought it was my fault and I guess that's

0:46:07 > 0:46:12probably the root of why I'm so demotivated for everything.

0:46:12 > 0:46:15You should try to communicate

0:46:15 > 0:46:16with your mum.

0:46:17 > 0:46:20Talk to her about your things.

0:46:22 > 0:46:28Nick's been away from home for six days. Now Marta helps him pluck up

0:46:28 > 0:46:30the courage to ask his mother the truth.

0:46:34 > 0:46:36- Hello.- Hello.

0:46:36 > 0:46:40- Hola, mi nino, como esta? - I'm good, how are you?

0:46:40 > 0:46:45- I'm fine, darling, how are you? - Yeah, I'm cool, everything's cool.

0:46:45 > 0:46:46'Anyways, Mum...'

0:46:46 > 0:46:48I just wanted to know if...

0:46:48 > 0:46:53my biological dad shot you and was it my fault.

0:46:53 > 0:46:56No, darling. No. Absolutely not.

0:46:56 > 0:47:01'You have absolutely nothing to do with that.

0:47:02 > 0:47:04'Your biological dad'

0:47:04 > 0:47:08doesn't have anything to do with that, anything at all, darling.

0:47:10 > 0:47:16- OK.- Don't worry. It's something that I need to talk to you about it,

0:47:16 > 0:47:19it's not your fault. It's not your dad's fault.

0:47:19 > 0:47:22It's nobody's fault, OK?

0:47:22 > 0:47:24Absolutely nothing to do with that.

0:47:24 > 0:47:29OK, Mum. Thank you.

0:47:29 > 0:47:31Yeah, we need to talk when I get back.

0:47:31 > 0:47:33Have a heart to heart.

0:47:33 > 0:47:36- Yes, darling. - INDISTINCT COMMENT

0:47:36 > 0:47:40I love you and I miss you so much!

0:47:40 > 0:47:41I love you too, Mum.

0:47:41 > 0:47:43OK. Bye.

0:47:59 > 0:48:01I feel relieved that it weren't my fault.

0:48:01 > 0:48:05I feel relieved I didn't have anything to do with it.

0:48:05 > 0:48:11I choose not to say anything good or bad about his dad.

0:48:11 > 0:48:14Because I didn't have anything good to say,

0:48:14 > 0:48:17I decide not to say anything.

0:48:17 > 0:48:20I think that was my mistake. But I was protecting Nicholas.

0:48:22 > 0:48:25It's probably the main reason I've been angry

0:48:25 > 0:48:29and because I didn't know that much of it.

0:48:29 > 0:48:34Just made assumptions and, you know, it's just the anger kept building up

0:48:34 > 0:48:36and building up over the years.

0:48:43 > 0:48:48The British teens' time in Puerto Rico is nearly over.

0:48:48 > 0:48:52Ed wants Rosie to see how her binge drinking could destroy her life.

0:48:52 > 0:48:57So today he's taking her to a drug rehabilitation centre.

0:48:57 > 0:49:01We're in San Juan.

0:49:02 > 0:49:06This is a pretty bad zone in Puerto Rico.

0:49:06 > 0:49:09Buenos diaz.

0:49:11 > 0:49:12..Rosie.

0:49:12 > 0:49:16Rosie, we're going to introduce you to the other girls,

0:49:16 > 0:49:18so you can meet them and then we'll go to the kitchen.

0:49:18 > 0:49:20- OK.- Follow me.

0:49:26 > 0:49:31- You like washing dishes? - No, not really.

0:49:31 > 0:49:33Why are you here?

0:49:34 > 0:49:36Because I was a drug addict.

0:49:37 > 0:49:39What drugs?

0:49:39 > 0:49:43I started with alcohol when I was 16.

0:49:43 > 0:49:47- Uh-huh.- And then after that,

0:49:47 > 0:49:50I experimented with marijuana.

0:49:50 > 0:49:54Then cocaine, like, around 17.

0:49:54 > 0:49:55Then after that...

0:49:58 > 0:50:01..I ended up doing heroin and coke.

0:50:05 > 0:50:08This is my home right now.

0:50:10 > 0:50:12What time you start drinking, 16...

0:50:12 > 0:50:16- You just started drinking? - No, like...

0:50:17 > 0:50:20I started drinking regularly that was when I was from 16.

0:50:20 > 0:50:25I used to drink occasionally from, like, 14, I suppose.

0:50:25 > 0:50:29I do think I'm different because, like, I know when to stop.

0:50:32 > 0:50:37I don't like carry it on and on. But I suppose everyone says that really.

0:50:37 > 0:50:40I started like that, you know.

0:50:40 > 0:50:42Look where I'm at right now.

0:50:42 > 0:50:45So, you think you can control it.

0:50:45 > 0:50:50You don't see it. We don't see it, you know, until we hit bottom.

0:50:50 > 0:50:52Then it's too late.

0:50:52 > 0:50:54You have to take care of yourself.

0:51:01 > 0:51:04I see Rosie and I see me.

0:51:04 > 0:51:08I don't want her to have been through what I went through.

0:51:08 > 0:51:14I hope she listens really hard, you know,

0:51:14 > 0:51:18and she realises that if she continues drinking like that,

0:51:18 > 0:51:21she can, you know, end up like me or like any of

0:51:21 > 0:51:24the girls here in detox.

0:51:27 > 0:51:31I definitely think I'll be more careful

0:51:31 > 0:51:33and more wary of how much I'm drinking.

0:51:33 > 0:51:37I will be more sensible about my drinking.

0:51:37 > 0:51:39I'm not going to end up like this.

0:51:41 > 0:51:45I think I've done really well today. I'm proud of myself.

0:51:49 > 0:51:50Bye!

0:51:54 > 0:51:57They kept saying thank you to me and things like that.

0:51:57 > 0:52:01- It was really sweet. - CHEERING

0:52:02 > 0:52:05I think they really appreciate the work that I've done here.

0:52:12 > 0:52:18- Father, we thank you for this meal. We thank you for providing this food. We thank you for the day.- Thank you.

0:52:18 > 0:52:22I was pretty amazed about the change in Rosie's attitude.

0:52:22 > 0:52:26I was a little taken by it, because I really was expecting

0:52:26 > 0:52:31a bit more of the foot dragging and a bit more of the fist pounding.

0:52:31 > 0:52:34Have you ever had a ketchup sandwich?

0:52:34 > 0:52:36That's just like him.

0:52:36 > 0:52:41I'm guessing at this point that there has been a breakthrough.

0:52:47 > 0:52:51Nick and Rosie's time in Puerto Rico has come to an end.

0:52:53 > 0:52:55I am more optimistic about my future.

0:52:55 > 0:52:59I think Ed's best quality is...

0:52:59 > 0:53:03he sees the good stuff in everyone and not the bad.

0:53:03 > 0:53:05- Hello. Almost ready?- Yes.

0:53:05 > 0:53:10'Rosie has changed so much in just a few days,'

0:53:10 > 0:53:13just by us...

0:53:13 > 0:53:17not caving in on her demands.

0:53:19 > 0:53:20All right, thank you.

0:53:22 > 0:53:26Coming here has just opened my eyes to not being lazy.

0:53:26 > 0:53:29Helped me realise I need to find a job and prove to myself and

0:53:29 > 0:53:36my family that I'm not completely worthless, and that I can buckle

0:53:36 > 0:53:40down and get to work and not just laze about smoking weed all day.

0:53:43 > 0:53:47I will miss them, but I'm going to remember them

0:53:47 > 0:53:49for a very, very, very long time.

0:53:57 > 0:54:01I really hope this experience has taught Rosie

0:54:01 > 0:54:05just a little bit more about taking responsibility for her own actions.

0:54:05 > 0:54:08Oh, I missed you!

0:54:08 > 0:54:10I missed you, too.

0:54:11 > 0:54:16'I have been too soft on Rosie. She needs some firmer boundaries.'

0:54:16 > 0:54:20And I certainly intend to put those in place now.

0:54:20 > 0:54:23I have come away with some positive things

0:54:23 > 0:54:25like I appreciate home much more.

0:54:25 > 0:54:30I've decided I want to go to college and retake my GCSEs.

0:54:30 > 0:54:32That's more than enough for me.

0:54:32 > 0:54:35That's brilliant. I couldn't ask for anything more.

0:54:35 > 0:54:39I am really sorry if I've worried you and stuff in the past.

0:54:39 > 0:54:41I'm going to try my best not to worry you any more.

0:54:41 > 0:54:43Oh, darling!

0:54:43 > 0:54:47- It's only because I love you so much.- I know.

0:54:51 > 0:54:56I hope Nicholas has learned from this that he can really talk to me.

0:54:56 > 0:54:59Or he realise maybe that we are here

0:54:59 > 0:55:04for him and that we always going to listen what he have to say.

0:55:13 > 0:55:16I've missed you, too!

0:55:16 > 0:55:18How you found it?

0:55:18 > 0:55:20It was hard, but it was fun.

0:55:20 > 0:55:23It made me realise that I wasn't...

0:55:23 > 0:55:26I'm not as lazy as I thought I was.

0:55:26 > 0:55:29In the past,

0:55:29 > 0:55:32I'm not proud to admit it, but...

0:55:32 > 0:55:35I smoked a lot of weed

0:55:35 > 0:55:39and I promise you from this point onwards

0:55:39 > 0:55:42I will make you proud, I promise you that...

0:55:45 > 0:55:47..with all my heart.

0:55:51 > 0:55:52I love you.

0:55:52 > 0:55:53I love you too, Mum.

0:55:53 > 0:55:56I'm so proud, darling.

0:55:58 > 0:56:02Next time on World's Strictest Parents...

0:56:02 > 0:56:04school dropout Scott Collinson...

0:56:04 > 0:56:09- Very good bongs.- ..and party boozer Billie Spencer...- I've had enough.

0:56:09 > 0:56:13- What does that mean, swivel on it? - ..get new parents in Kenya.

0:56:13 > 0:56:16- I'm not wearing uniform. - You are embarrassing me here.

0:56:16 > 0:56:18- I'm not embarrassing you.- You are.

0:56:18 > 0:56:21I'm not getting used to anything and I'm not going near that.
