Remember me and my mum, Tracy Beaker?

Alfie! Come on!Alfie!

And our dog Alfie?

Well, this is our new home.

Mum was just getting over her break-up with Sean Godfrey.

Then my granny Cam got married to my teacher, Miss Oliver.

But now I call her Granny Mary.

Anyway...

..me and Mum decided it was time for us to make a new start.

We made new friends too.

This is Flo.

Hi, Flo!

And this is Flo's shop - the Dumping Ground.

I know, right?

We couldn't believe it either.

Mum used to live in a place that she called the Dumping Ground.

We decided the name HAD to be a lucky sign.

And it was.

DOOR OPENS

Flo had been ill and she needed an assistant.

All right, Flo?

Mum said that in a month she'd be promoted to shop manager.

It took a week.

You know, you two have made so many improvements around here,

I was thinking - how about a new name?

No!No!

Don't you find it old-fashioned?

It's retro chic. It's our brand.

FLO LAUGHS

Well, you're the manager.

ICE-CREAM VAN CHIMES

Mum?

Oh, go on. I'll treat us all.

Double flake, strawberry sauce and sprinkles on top for me.

Um, Mum, can I get them?

OK. I'll come with you.

Mum, please, I'll be so careful.

Thanks, Flo. OK. But remember, look both ways,

and if you. ..Both ways, stop if see a car,

I know, Mum. I know.

Sometimes I think Mum forgets I'm not a little kid any more.

Thank you. Thank you!

I may not be as loud as Mum,

but that doesn't mean I'm weak.

I'm a Beaker girl. And I don't need anyone to protect me.

SLOW MOTION: Sorry...

What?!

Hey, get back here, thief!

My mum's going to kill you!

Argh!

Oh! Don't rub your eyes.What?

If you have sand in your eyes, don't rub them.

Blink. Here.

It's water. Wash your eyes and give me your glasses. I'll wipe them.

Thank you.

Did you know that boy? No, he just stole my ice cream.

Brazen child.

Yeah, what you said.

I'm Jess, by the way. Patience. But you can call me Paysh.

Paysh.

Yeah. I've seen you around. You live at that shop, don't you?

Yeah, the Dumping Ground. We just moved.

Sweet.

Did you want to go for a walk?

She should have been back by now.

It's hot. There's probably a queue.

Well, if she's in the queue, then she can answer her phone.

I knew I should have gone with her.

I'm sure she's absolutely fine.

Probably just talking to a friend.

Who? She doesn't know anyone round here yet.

That is why I'm worried about her.

Come on.

So it's just you and your mum?

That's your whole family?

Well, there's Granny Cam. And Granny Carly.

And Mary, she's my granny too.

Three grannies?

Oh, well, four, if we count Flo. She owns the Dumping Ground.

Oh, and there's Alfie. Your dog.Yeah.

I love dogs. I've got two at home. And three horses.

Three horses? Are you rich or something?

I wish. Nah, we've just always had horses.

Kind of like a family tradition. Oh, I wish we did.

PHONE RINGS

Is that your phone?

Oh. Yeah.

Oh...

It's OK. It was just an ice cream.

That's not the point. You were mugged!

And you should never have run off after him.You would have done.

That's different.

I make all the stupid mistakes so you don't have to.

Making mistakes is part of growing up.

I never said she could grow up. I never gave you permission.

PHONE VIBRATES

ALFIE WHINES

Hello?

Yeah, you've changed your number.

No, now is not a good time.

To be honest, it'll never be a good time. OK, bye.

Mum? Who was that?

Oh, just one of them scam calls.

So what happened to the mugger? Where did he go?

Don't know. He ran off behind the beach huts.

We looked for him later but he'd gone.

You know, those beach huts are lovely.

Didn't you say you used to have one, Flo? Oh, I still have.

I just haven't been able to go down there for years.

What? You never told us. Where is it?

Erm, third from the right as you're looking at the sea.

The one with the blue stripes.

Oh, we had some fun in there.

Beach parties? Oh, yes.

I was the queen of the beach, in my teeny-weeny bikini.

Flo!

Well, you know what I say? If you've got it, show it off.

Can I see the beach hut?

Please?

I think I could dig out the keys.

Well, why don't you wait until after lunch and I can go with you?

Mum, please. Remember what we talked about?

Fine. Alfie needs a walk. Why don't you take him with you?

Come on, Alfie.

Come on, then. Good boy! Yes.

Halt.

I hope you've got your bags, young lady.

Bags? Yes. If your dog does his business just anywhere,

it ruins the esplanade for everyone else. Do you understand?

It's OK, I know. I've brought bags.

Good. Tidy beach - tidy mind.

Off you go.

It was definitely him.

The ice-cream thief.

I decided to teach him a lesson.

Oi! Give that back!

Give it. ..What are you going to do?

Eurgh!

It's freezing.

How old is it? I don't know.

Where'd you get it? The bins. Eurgh!

Argh!

How dare you? What on earth do you think you're doing?

I'm... I'm so sorry. It was an accident.

Don't lie to me. And I don't know what you're laughing at.

You've got lettuce and tomatoes on your face.

Yes, because of you two messing about.

Don't you touch me. That's assault. For goodness' sake.

Of course I'm not going to touch you, you silly girl.

You are a girl. So?

Whoever you are, I shall be speaking to your parents about this.

Ha! Good luck. I don't have any.

You don't have any? I'll find out who you are.

I know everyone in this town and everyone knows this face.

And you - you're just going to leave that litter there, are you?

Come on. Pick it up.

Don't let me catch you again.

Come on, Alfie.

Third one on the left...

..with blue stripes.

Look, Alfie, this is it.

Everything was old and broken and forgotten.

But so was the Dumping Ground when we moved in.

If Mum can transform a whole shop,

I can transform a beach hut.

Ugh...

Why won't it...? Ugh!

Why won't you move?!

What are you doing?

What's it look like?

I could give you a hand. I'm good, thanks.

Hey, let go! I can do it!

Thanks.

Is this your shed? My beach hut, yeah.

Are you clearing it out?

Yeah. Can I help you?

Why would you do that? Cos I'm nice?

If you're nice then why did you steal my ice cream?

I was hungry. Sorry.

Is that why you have to take food out of bins?

No, I found it on a table outside a caff.

Still, you must have been desperate.

Yeah, but you should have seen your face

when you thought you ate bin burger.

Yeah, hilarious.

Are you OK though? I'm cool.

So, am I helping you or what?

Come on, then.

Nice.

So, do you really have no parents?

Everyone's got parents.

Yeah, but some kids never know their parents.

My mum was brought up in care.

So?

So, were you in care too?

That's what they call it, but they're having a laugh.

Nobody cares.

I was meant to be fostered, but they just threw me out. Again.

So where do you live now?

I've been sleeping in the bus shelters.

Benches. Under the arches.

Wherever, you know?

What's your name? Jordan Whiteley.

I'm Jess.

You should really come and talk to my mum. She'll help.

No. You can't tell anyone where I am.

But my mum's really... I'm serious.

If they catch me, they'll send me to a secure home.

They'll lock me up.

OK. I won't say anything.

Good.

Let's do this.

OK, you grab that stuff and I'll do this over here.

Yeah, sweet. On it.

Wow, it looks better already.

It's cool.

OK, what's next?

You can dance

You can jive

Having the time of your life

Ooh, ooh, ooh

See that girl

Watch the scene

Digging the dancing queen...

You're good!

The winner takes it all!

Are you OK? Just tired.

Is it OK if I stay here for a bit?

I'd have to check with Mum and Flo.

No, you can't tell anyone.

If they catch me, they'll send me to a secure home.

Why would they do that?

It's the care system. You just don't get it.

Actually, I do. I told you, my mum was in care.

So I can stay?

I don't know... Please? Just one night? Please?

All right.

And it's our secret?Yeah.

Swear on your life. No, no, no. Your mum's life.

I'm not doing that.

So you're just going to snitch on me?No. So then swear!

All right, fine, yeah, I swear. On your mum's life.

Whatever. Yeah, on my mum's life.

One night. One.

Thanks, Jess.

You're a queen.

Got any food?

I didn't really trust Jordan,

but she must have been desperate to sleep in the bus shelters

and steal unwanted food.

Oh, you should have said you were hungry.

Oh, I didn't want to bother you.

It is my job to be bothered.

If I'm not feeding you enough, you should just say.

Is the cake for table two?

Yep, just feeding the bottomless pit first.

Mum, can I have a cake?

Er, you can have fruit.

I felt bad stealing from Mum and Flo.

But I found it really hard to say no to Jordan.

I couldn't really imagine what she'd been through.

You got more?

I told you, it was hard enough to get that.

So, what am I meant to do about blankets?

Er... You can use these.

This will do for now.

In the morning, you can get me some more blankets and stuff?

This isn't a hotel. We agreed - one night.

So what am I supposed to do after, then?

That's not my problem.

But if it wasn't my problem, whose problem was it?

I think we've got mice in the kitchen.

Mice?

Mm. Very clean and tidy mice

who took three cakes but left all the rest alone.

I was hungry. I'm a growing girl.

So you keep saying.

Jess, is everything all right? Mm-hm.

You know you can tell me anything, don't you?I know, but...

What?

But I swore on your life.

Nothing.

Love you.

Love you more.

Goodnight.Night.

I couldn't sleep.

I kept thinking about Jordan all alone in the beach hut.

How would it feel to have nobody to look after you?

Mum?

Mum!

Mum?

Mum?

I'm going to get in now.

Mum!

Mum! Mum!

Jess?

Jess? What happened? Did you have a bad dream?Where were you?

I was just in the shop.

On your phone? Erm, yeah.

Who were you speaking to?

Just Cam.

In the middle of the night?

Yeah. What happened? What made you scream like that?

Who were you really speaking to?

I just said. Cam.

What's the matter?Nothing.

Come here.

Mum was lying, I could tell.

She's an even worse liar than me.

Mum, can I go down to the beach? Sure, we'll go together.

We're heading there too. Who's we?

Oh, Peter said he'll help move all that junk you cleared out yesterday.

From the beach hut? Yeah, of course.

Ah, here he is.

Hi, Tracy. Hi.

Peter's going to be my head teacher.

He's also my mum's friend. But right now...

Ah, Jess...

..I had to keep them away from the beach hut.

..I bought you these. Thank you.

You've probably read most of them.

Yeah, she's a very advanced reader. I hope your staff are ready

to deal with an exceptionally gifted child.

Mum! You're so embarrassing.

See you later. Hang on, we're coming with you.

Er...

Race you!

I win! I beat you!

Mum and Peter, I was here first.

OK, you win. There's no need to batter the door down.

So this is all the stuff I cleared out.

OK, we'll sort that out later. Let's look inside first.OK.

Oh... I can't find the key.

I must have left it at the shop.

That's OK, Flo gave me a spare.

Ta-dah!

Let's have a look in here, then.

Let's see what's inside.

Oh! Ah. This is so cute!

It's got so much potential.

Yeah, it looks structurally sound. Just needs a lick of paint.

Er... Actually...

Yeah, but, erm, yesterday I cleaned up a lot of water

and I think there's a hole in the roof.

Really? I can't see anything.

Maybe you should take a look at the outside.

Good idea. Excuse me. Thank you.

Get ready.

Did you say it was this side?

Er, yeah, this side. Right. You can stand on this.

Oh, thanks, Jess.

No problem.

Here we go.

It's me. Go.

Go, go, go!

Right... See anything?

It's definitely not coming in here.

Why did you bring them?Ssh! You need to go.

I can't see anything wrong with the roof.Oh, good.

Go now. OK.

We see these all the time. They do suffer from osmosis.

Oh. That's really interesting. Thank you.

Oh, no leak? Made a mistake. Never mind.

Mum, can I go down to the promenade?

Now? We've only just got here.

I know, but I want to play on the machines.

OK. Only the kids' games. No gambling.

I can't, they won't let us anyway. Good.

Make sure you're home in an hour. Do not be late. We've got plans.

OK. See you later. Bye.Bye.

Why am I still holding this? Oh! Sorry.

You could have warned me.

How? I got you out, didn't I?

Did you bring any food?

No, but I brought money...

How much?

7.80.

Is that all?

We're not rich, you know. These are my life savings.

And you're giving it all to me?

How sweet.

Not exactly.

We have to spend this money sensibly.

OK. How?

Well...

Look for the orange stickers. That means reduced.

OK? Yeah.

What about these? Yeah.

Do you want white or brown bread?

Erm, you pick, it's your money.

SHOP BELL RINGS

Paysh! Jess...

I was just shopping for my mum.

Same.

Don't look now, but that kid who took your ice cream...

Oh, that's Jordan. Turns out she's a girl.

OK.

She's all right really, once you get to know her.

Right. I just need to, erm...

Come on.

I want to wait for Paysh.

Paysh? Patience...

Did I do something wrong?

No. I just really need to get home.

I thought we were friends.

Jess, I can't be. ..But why?

I just can't. My mum would kill me if I got mixed up in all that.

Mixed up in all what? What are you going on about?

She doesn't know, does she? Know what?

It's really hot. Why don't you take off your hoodie?

I don't want to.

See? You little snitch.

You big crank. You what?

You stole all that stuff.

It's not stealing if I'm hungry.

Hey!

Sorry!

I knew it.

It's OK. We lost her.

We got away with it.

What do you mean, we? You've made me into a thief.

Now we'll both go to prison.

Chill, Jess. No-one's getting arrested.

You're just a little kid.

So you used me.

No, I helped you save your money.

Just take that stuff back right now.

No. I need to eat.

That doesn't mean you have to steal. What else do you want me to do?

I'm not going back to care.

You said you know what it's like. My mum does.

And she'd make you take all that stuff back.

If you tell anyone about me, you'll be sorry.

She should be here any minute. Mum... There you are.

I said an hour.

Mum, can I talk to you?

Sure, but not right now...

But why? Hey, Beaker.

Tyrone! Because we've got guests.

Hey, Jess.

Sean Godfrey.

Nice to see you. Nice place you've got here.

I can't believe it. Sean Godfrey in my little shop!

And did you say you and Tracy used to be an item?

Yes, they USED to be.

Why didn't you tell me you were coming?

Well, Tyrone wanted to surprise you.

Surprise! I've missed you, Beaker.

Oh, I missed you too.

In a moment, my best friend and my ex-almost-step-dad

are about to walk out of the door

and discover my worst ever secret.
