All language subtitles for Minder s02e05 Not a Bad Lad, Dad

It'd be so good for you to love you like
you wanted to.

It'd be so good for you to love you like
you wanted to.

Right, so... My pleasure, Terry. You
help me, I help you. That has always

my philosophy in life.

Never let me down. The rest of the
people in this world behave that...

the matter?

You've only given me a bleeding lift.

A favour sowed is a favour reaped,
Terry. Oh, my God, I'm getting up before

start the hymns.

Who's that, then?

How do I know?

See you later.

Up to Winchester. Yeah. And don't forget
that job.

Oh, all right.

Ta -ra. Ta -ra.

Are you Tony McCann, mister?

Yeah, that's right.

Who are you?

Peter Sharp. My mum told me to give you
this.

What is it?

It's a letter.

I can't see that. What's it about?

I don't know. My mum didn't say.

Well, better have a look, then, eh?

Eh?

Where's your mum now?

Don't know.

Where's your dad?

Don't know. My mum said you and your
uncle said it.

Well, better go in then, huh?

Come on in.

Here you go. You can bung your stuff in
there for the time being.

What did you say your name was again?

Peter Frank.

And your mum's Beryl.

Yeah, yeah.

Sort of.

But if you're me Uncle Terry... Listen,
I'm... I'm going to have a cup of tea.

Feel like one?

I don't mind, Dad.

Well, go on, sit down.

Make yourself comfortable.

How did your mum know where I live?

Don't know.

How did you get down here, exactly?

From train from Warrington, me mam
brought me.

But why didn't she wait to say hello?

Don't know, she said she had to go and
see her mate.

Who's that?

Mary, she's an old mate of me mam's, so
me mam says.

I bet you don't know where she lives
either, do you?

Me mam didn't say.

Oh, love.

Not again.

I do, kid.

Come in, love, and tell us all about it.

Are you hungry?

No, it's all right.

Listen, if you're hungry, say so.

Well, I wouldn't mind a butter, please.

Butter?

No, please.

That's all right.

That's a sandwich, isn't it?

Yeah, hold on. I think I've rustled it
up.

That's all I've got at the moment.
That'll do.

How old are you, Pete?

Yeah.

You always lived in Warrington?

Aye, but you must know that, being my
uncle and everything.

Oh, well, yeah, I haven't been in touch
with your mum for a long time. You know,

I thought you might have moved or
something.

No, we've always lived in Warrington.
This is the first time I've been out of

it.

Your, er, your dad, still at home, is
he?

He weren't at home when I left.

So he definitely doesn't know you're
down here?

My mum didn't say.

Go on, go on.

You're not going to stand for that, are
you, Terence? I already have. He's

there, isn't he?

Him a father.

Can you imagine?

Something wrong with that notion, is
there? It's ridiculous.

No, no, no, Terry, I mean you a father.
It's not natural.

Am I some kind of freak or something?

No, no, no, no, but I'm referring to
your erratic lifestyle.

Your total lack of ambition.

Your cavalier attitude and matters
domestic.

It don't exactly make you odds -on
favourite for the fatherhood stakes, do

Look, that kid has not been out of black
pudding land. And correct me if I'm

wrong, you have never been north of
Barnet. There is no way you could have

him. I mean, apart from everything else.

Everything else what?

You tell him, will you? Tell him.

It's some loony bird trying a con.

Am I right or am I wrong?

I had to admit, it smelled a bit tall.
Long lost kid, nine years out your past.

Got to be a bit dodgy, hasn't it? See?
It's not possible.

Listen, when I was spying, I did go into
that manor, right?

And for a couple of days, I had a thing
with a bird up there.

Do you know what her name was?

Beryl?

How long was you up there?

Like I said, a few days.

There you go, then. A bird like that
lets you do the business as soon as you

meet. Next day, someone else. I tell
you, Terry, you're standing with a three

-star trip.

All I'm saying is it's possible, right?

And where's the kid now?

At home watching telly. You know what I
mean?

He's only had the kid a few hours. He's
already leaving it on his own.

You're great, aren't you? I thought it
would help talking to somebody. Of

it would, Terry. Of course it would. And
who better to talk to than your two

close friends, Dave and myself?

Look, take the advice of wiser heads
than yours.

Dump him.

Dump him?

I don't mean dump him in a river, do I?

Send him down to welfare.

They have people who deal with that sort
of thing.

Wet Liberal Brigade. Love it, don't I?

Yeah, how can't she tell us a kid you're
his uncle, but tell you you're really

the kid's old man?

Well, he thinks someone else is his dad,
doesn't he?

I suppose if he liked you as his dad, it
would upset him.

I mean, discover it liked.

Upset any kid, wouldn't it?

Yeah, well, it don't matter who his dad
is.

I'm lumbered with him, right?

No, you're not. Not if you do what I
say.

No, I can't do that.

Why not?

Well, you've got to feel a bit sorry for
him, haven't you?

I told you when she ran, we're not
having that kid here as well. I know,

knows, but you've seen the state she's
in. We've only got one bedroom, for

Christ's sake.

Keep your voice down.

Look, I don't mind her staying for a few
days until she finds a place.

And how the bloody hell is she supposed
to find somewhere to live in this bloody

town in a few days?

Is my dinner ready?

No, it bloody is.

Come on, love.

Let's get this place unpacked.

What do you mean you can't? You've
already left him alone.

So what's a few hours this evening?

Look, I'm not going to get out of that
boozer till after midnight.

Well, you can watch the late -night
movie on TV.

Oh, that's lovely, isn't it? You were
the one who was having a go at me about

leaving him before. No, no, no, I
wasn't. I was simply pointing out to you

unsuitability in the role of Peter
Familius.

Peter what? And look, I promised the man
you'd be there, and you promised me.

Well, to be fair, I mean, I've got my
reputation for reliability to consider.

Oh, I can't just leave him alone in a
strange flat.

Strange? Oh, so it was strange, modest.
Oh, come on, you know what I'm talking

about. And what about the money? You've
got to earn, haven't you? If you are

bent on being a family man, you have got
to provide for your dependents, Terry.

That is a harsh reality. All right.

You can lend us a few, Bob.

I only wish I could, Terry. I only wish
I could.

But I've got a slight cash flow problem
at the moment.

Oh. I tell you what, take him with you.

He's mine.

Yeah, well, I'll have a word with the
governor. He can stick him somewhere

the office.

He'll enjoy all that music and
excitement.

All right, all right. But you'd better
give us a sub. I've got to get some

groceries. Of course, of course, of
course. Would I see you without... There

go.

And now you've got some money, you can
buy me a drink.

You've been all right?

Aye, thanks, Uncle Terry.

Here, I've got some grub for you.

You must be starving.

Don't know frozen, do you?

I like it better warmed up.

I can't stand the pain.

There you go.

Don't got any, Chris?

Hi, Uncle Teddy.

You all right?

Aye, it's a bit noisy though, isn't it?

Yeah.

You have boozers like this up your end,
don't you?

Huh?

Pubs with music and dancing and all
that.

I don't really like pubs.

Your dad goes to pubs. Oh.

Are we going to be here much longer,
Uncle Teddy?

Well, it's like I was trying to explain
to you earlier.

It's this little job you see.

It's what I do.

Well, I see you do. Stand around.

Funny job, isn't it? Yeah.

Well, when you grow up, you'll find out
that some people have to do funny jobs.

I have to do this.

See, I make sure all these people behave
themselves.

Like a policeman?

No.

Well, sort of, in a way, yeah.

Harry!

Listen, I've got to go and mingle for a
bit. Will you be all right?

Gary!

Gary!

Thought for a moment you had your show.

Is that what you're doing here, checking
up on me? No, no.

No, no, I know you wouldn't let me down.

No, I come to get your feet.

Make sure you didn't get striped, you
know.

Oh, yeah, I know.

Is that him?

Yeah, that's him, yeah.

Don't look much like you, do he?

Go on, tell him who I am.

Peter, this is a friend of mine, Arthur.

Hello, Pete.

Hello. Peter.

You look a bright young lad.

Terry's been telling me all about you.
Ain't you, Terry?

Your mother been having a bit of a lark,
has she?

Bit of a girl, your mum.

Your mum?

Your mum.

Oh, your mum.

What's it all about, Peter?

Peter, you stay there for a minute.

A word in your shell, like.

Ooh, very good theme.

Now, listen, just turn it in. Turn what
in?

Oh, come on, Arthur, you know what I'm
talking about.

I was just trying to be nice to the
little lad. Is there something wrong

that? Yeah, just move it out, all right?
No questions. Look, Terry, what has got

into you? You're not seriously
considering keeping hold of the kid, are

Well, until I sort it out, yes. Sort it
out? What, you mean find his mother?

I suppose so.

Terence, Terence, you are a minder, not
a bloody detective.

Look, she's locked the kid at you and
done the offman. She's some kind of

Now, look, just let me ask the lad a few
questions.

Now, remember, I have children of my
own. I know how the young mind works.

thanks a lot, but I'll sort it out my
way. If it's all the same to you, all

right? I'm just trying to help a friend
in need. Is that your attitude? It is.

See you later, all right?

Off a logger, Tommy.

Good day, Captain.

Justice will have been done.

I'm sure he'll be all right.

Yeah, I don't know, this fellow, love. I
mean, people change in nine years.

No, Teddy was a nice lad. I know he'll
understand.

Still an old love.

No, bro, in all of it, did I?

Didn't know what else to do.

You could have brought him here.

Well, at least you can give him a ring.

You've got the number, haven't you?

Oh, yeah.

Well, go on, then.

What if Terry answers?

You don't have to tell him where you are
or anything.

Just ask if Peter's all right and say
you'll see him as soon as you can.

Do you think I should? Yes, I do.

There's no answer. No.

Or perhaps it's taken through the
pictures or something.

Rocking out on super sounds, boys and
girls. So don't get strung over or hung

over. Just hang loose on your... Come
on, Terry, get them out as well after

time, will you? Yeah, I will.

Come on, get them out.

Watch it, stupid.

It were you who bumped into me. Oh, it
were you who bumped into me? You cheeky

little bastard.

Who do you reckon his tailor is?

Sainsbury's, isn't it?

At least I don't wear a herring.

Only girls wear a herring.

Mouthy little bleeder. I'll give you a
slap.

Slap anyone. Try me.

You all right, Peter?

Hi, Uncle Terry.

What's this, Big Uncle Terry coming to
the rescue?

Shut your mouth, Sonny, or I'll squeeze
all your pimples. All right? Now, on

your back, both of you.

Now, listen, I told you. I wonder if
that kid will grow up to be as big a

as his uncle.

Do you think you should have phoned
again?

Yeah, I think I should.

Just to reassure yourself, you know.

Yeah, I will.

About Ronnie Beryl.

What? You don't think he'll find out
where you've come, do you?

Oh, I don't think I could.

He'll never think I've come to London,
anyway.

He's found you before.

Coming in.

Wakey, wakey, come and get it.

Come on, else it'll get cold.

Oh, put a pair of strides on, eh?

Sorry?

Trousers. Yeah, and bun your shirt on
and all. You can wash and change later

you want.

Well, come on, then.

Hi, Uncle Kelly.

Selfishness.

Selfishness and ingratitude.

Oh, lumbered with your lumber, eh?

Terrible thing.

You know what he said when I phoned him?
No, well, I'm sure you're going to tell

me. Hump it yourself.

The exercise will do you good.

Bloody ingrate.

Yeah, well, help is hard to find these
days.

20, 40, 60, 260.

Oh, God.

There you go, Arthur.

Oh, thanks.

Oh, favourstone, Dave, favourstone.

I only wish a certain person would
appreciate that.

You can hardly have a kid tagging along
on your shifting suspect parcels.

Suspect? There's nothing suspect about
this little lot. I told you the geezer

got it in lieu of a bad debt.

I know what you're telling me, Arthur.

And your word is bonded.

Right. Hello?

Hello, Terry.

Is that you?

Yeah, who's that?

It's Beryl.

Peter's mum.

Is he all right?

Oh, yeah.

It's wonderful. Yeah, he's all right.
Listen, we'd better have a chat about

this. Um...

Sorry, Terry, I can't.

It's all right, it's all right.

That was your mum?

Your mum, what did she say?

Not a lot.

Is she coming for me? Did she say Uncle
Terry?

Well, no, not exactly. Not just yet.

She asked after you, you know, to see
how you were and all that.

Aye.

I'll tell you what.

Shall we go out somewhere?

Where? I don't know.

We'll think of something.

Arthur, hang on a minute.

Listen, Arthur, I told you I'm busy
today. So what am I, contagious all of a

sudden? I can't pay a friendly visit?
And I'm not humping any dodgy booze

either. Dodgy booze? You're beginning to
sound like Dave.

No, no, no, that's all done and
delivered.

So what do you want, then? What? I don't
want anything.

Oh, come on. You don't make social
visits. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

told you, I came round for nothing but a
friendly talk.

But since you bring it up... Oh, here we
go. I had a bell from the geezer who

runs the disco boozer you were working
last night. He told me about that little

to -do you had.

And? Very impressed.

Very impressed in... Oh, by the way,
your wages.

Here we are.

Bless that sub.

And he wants to know whether you like to
do it regular.

No way. Unless your manager can't speak,
I said yes. No. It doesn't have to be

on a permanent basis, but I didn't let
him know that.

See, I thought until things pick up,
it'd be bread and butter money. No.

So what do you say? No, N -O. Look,
don't be evasive. I've got to tell the

geezer one way or the other. Look, I
told you when you rang, right?

I'm not leaving him alone anymore.

Not until I sort it out. And I'm
certainly not taking him back to that

not after last night's turnout. You are
being very silly, Terence.

Very silly indeed.

Holding on to him like that.

Look, how do you know you're not letting
yourself in for some sort of abduction

charges? Do leave off. And where are you
going to start looking for this mother

of his?

Phoned up a little while ago.

Maybe she called back. Oh, she rang and
didn't declare where she is. She sounded

a bit upset.

She's upset?

I'm upset about your stupidity.

I mean, it's not as if there's anything
in it for us.

What do you reckon, then?

It's good, isn't it?

Well, been a few people dabbed up in
there.

What's the mean dabbed up?

Well, tabbed up, you know, locked in
prison.

Look, there's Traitor's Gate.

While she was still princess, Queen
Elizabeth I was imprisoned and built out

Queen Mary.

She sat on steps of Traitor's Gate. It
was raining, but she sat on steps and

refused to budge.

Is that a fact?

Aye, there's ravens in town, you know.
Oh, yeah, yeah, lots of them.

They've always been there since Tower
were built over 900 years ago.

There's a legend saying Tower will
crumble if they ever leave, but they've

wing clips and it's unlikely, innit?

Well, absolutely, yeah.

It's great, innit?

Yeah, it's all right, innit?

Listen, if you've never been out of
Warrington, how come you know so much

all this?

My favourite subjects at school, English
history, especially London, is where

most of it were made.

Look! Listen, about your dad.

Might sound silly, but I've never met
him, you see.

I mean, I haven't seen your mum for
years either.

They used to have bear baiting over
there.

Plink Prison were close by, where
bishops of Winchester used to keep their

prisoners. They were burnt down by
rioters 200 years ago.

Pity they can't do the same with ones
within the scraps.

Eh?

Nothing.

Listen, what's your dad's name?

Ronnie.

He all right, is he?

He hits me now.

Does he hit you?

Aye, sometimes.

Is that why you and your mum come down
here?

Cos you're not too about?

You and me mum had a fight night before.

He mustn't take too much nurse above,
love.

He's never really got off the shock of
losing our Billy.

And he just gets upset when kids are
about.

Especially as your Peter would be near
the same age as our Billy would have

been. It's all right, Mary, don't go on
about it.

There's nobody who don't like kids.

Just the opposite.

No, that there's not a lot of room in
the flat.

Yeah. I understand, Mary, aren't you?

Well, you know you're welcome to stay as
long as you like, love.

Do you know if your mum's got enough
readies?

Readies?

Has she got enough money?

Don't think she's marched fares up to
London with you.

Don't you mean down?

No, we always say up.

Up.

Well, it don't really matter, does it?

I suppose not.

You got any other relations in
Warrington?

They're only grand. She died about two
years ago.

You're not really my employer.

What makes you say that?

Well, me mum's never mentioned you until
we was coming up here on train.

Well, no, I mean, I'm not a blood
relation, but your mum and me, we were,

very good friends a long time ago.

That before I was born?

Yeah.

Yeah, that was before you were born.

I think we should go out somewhere this
evening.

Get you out yourself.

Do I have to keep calling you Uncle
Terry, Uncle Terry?

No, just call me Terry.

That's more friendly, isn't it?

Who's Beryl, lover boy?

Who's that?

Well, that's very flattering.

Penny, it's you.

Hello.

No, no, I was expecting someone else.

Yes, I know.

Beryl. Yeah, well, it's not another
bird. Well, of course, it is a bird, but

it's not what you think.

Listen, I'm ringing to say I've got a
few days' leave.

So if you're not otherwise engaged...
Yeah, smashing, yeah.

The only thing is, there's someone else
staying here.

A boy.

Young boy.

Kerry, what are you trying to say?

No, no, leave it out, no.

He's, um... Sort of.

Yeah, look, I'll explain it when you get
it, all right? Well, I've got to go

home and change first.

So, uh, about eight, say? OK, fine.

Hello.

Trouble is, most of the cheaper -priced
ones don't want kids.

They're a bit fit, but they can be
pretty horrible.

Look, don't worry about it. I can maybe
help you out with some money.

Beryl?

What? Oh, I'm sorry.

I was saying, don't worry about the
money.

Me and Mary have got a bit put by.

We'll help.

No. Oh, it's very kind.

I'm very grateful, but you've done
enough of the tears.

Maybe I ought to go back.

And have that bloody swine bash you
about again.

Not very likely, me lass.

Well, I don't know what I'm going to do.

You're staying here till you've sorted
yourself out. That's what you're going

do.

Now, what about Peter?

Do you want to try ringing him again?

No, not tonight.

He'll only upset me again.

He's all right.

Terry, tell him what.

What are you going to do?

Don't know. Not much I can do, is there?

Well, you can hardly keep him with you
now, can you?

No, I suppose not.

Seems like a nice kid.

Yeah, he's all right, Zams.

What if his mother doesn't ring again or
come round?

Oh, I don't know.

You'll have to contact the authorities.

Yeah. No, really.

Yeah, I know, I know.

You think he really is your son?

Well, it's possible, isn't it?

I don't think I'd better stay tonight.

Why not?

Well... No, he's all right. He'd be in
the living room asleep on the sofa.

No, I don't think I'd better.

Oh, come on, Pen.

No.

What about the noise?

Oh, don't make any noise.

No, but I do.

True.

True.

You all right?

Oh, great. Haven't had so much fun since
my last emergency practice.

Well, what?

In case of a crash, you know.

Where did I get her energy?

Oh, it's called youth.

We're going to have to do something, you
know.

Yeah, I suppose so.

Is his home on the phone?

No, no.

Anyway, that'd be nice, wouldn't it?

iPhone up and a geezer who's supposed to
be his father answers.

No. Anyway, I think it's him they're
both running away from.

Oi, hit her!

All right, come on, second half.

I'm in goal.

I'm not playing games, girl. Won't be
fair.

We'll see about that, young man. Come
on.

I think we got company.

Hang on a minute.

You been following me or something?

Not following.

Tracking, Terry.

Tracking. Ah.

So how come you tracked me down here,
then? Well, you weren't at home.

No. And I figured you were a near -skimp
member with half a young lad on your

hands. Where else could you take him?
Well, it wouldn't cost.

Very clever.

Logic and reason have always been my
forte, Terence. Don't worry.

You're what?

What's Penny doing here?

Got a few days' leave.

Oh, she wastes it doing this.

All right, then. What do you want?

I need help shifting a load.

No, no, no, no, no. It's not the booze.

That's done, I told you. No, it's a
costume of water -damaged umbrellas I've

done a trade with.

Water -damaged umbrellas? Well, that's
what it says on the invoice.

Invoice, you?

Imported foreign rubbish.

I got it at the lock -up. Came in last
night. I bet it did, late last night.

look, the point is, it's got to be
delivered to its new owner today.

I've arranged with Des to pick up a
transit at the garage. It'll only take

couple of hours.

I'm busy.

Oh, yeah?

Too busy to pick up 20 sobs for a few
hours' collar?

Yeah, I'm sorry, mate. I promise. All
right, all right, all right.

30. We'll cut into my profit margins,
but I need someone I can trust.

And don't tell me you don't need the
dough.

You, uh, found his mother yet?

No, not yet, no.

Well, you'll have to feed him. All that
costs money, doesn't it?

Just as well Penny is here, because she
can look after him while you do this job

for me.

All right, but they're coming with us.

Oh, no, Terry.

I can't be doing with all that aggro.

Bloody hell.

I didn't know you played.

Back it up to the door, Terry.

All right, come on, come on, come on.

Hold it!

Just a little storing place.

You need to be well stocked up when
you're in the buying and selling game.

Where on earth did it all come from?

Oh, bankrupt stock, mostly.

Seconds, that sort of stuff, you know.

Is that it, then?

Yeah.

Perhaps little Peter can give you a
hand.

What's wrong with you?

Oh, no chance, Kelly, no chance.

I'd done my back humping that last load.

Compound fracture of vertebrae, I
shouldn't wonder.

Oh, shouldn't wonder, yeah.

Come on, Peter.

Arthur?

Oh, you know me, Terry.

Do anything for a few coppers.

Oh, a little bit of schmucker.

Factory reject, mostly, but it moves
well in the street markets.

I have something over here that will
really be of interest to a young lady of

your discerning taste. Peter.

Now, this really is exclusive.

A gift. And please don't thank me.

Oh, I've seen them selling this in
Oxford Street.

Yes, I believe one or two of the better
class stores do carry a few bottles.

No, no, I mean the street traders with
suitcases.

You can tell by the shape of the bottle
it's not the real thing.

Can't you make him see reason?

Reason? About that kid.

It's unnatural.

It's unhealthy, even. Why?

Why? Yes, why is it unnatural?

Yes, well, I mean, the sort of fellow
Terry is, the kind of life he leads.

Well, he seems to be looking after him
pretty well to me.

That is not the point, my dear. And
apart from everything else, I would

it's against the law.

Really?

You don't mean to say you approve?

Well, I don't disapprove.

But I agree he's got to do something
about it.

So you'll have a word with him, eh? I
already have.

But I'll have another try.

Good girl. Good girl.

Those dresses you were looking at,
perhaps we could find one your size.

Terry!

I've

changed

my mind. I don't think this is a good
idea.

Anyway, I'm not too keen on dwelling in
places like this. Oh, come on.

Won't take long.

All

right,

hold on, hold on.

Listen, what do you think, little man?

Well, it's up to you, isn't it?

Well, you do want us to find your mum,
don't you?

Your mum hasn't run away, has she?

Well, no, but... We just want to check
if she's OK.

She sounded a bit upset on the phone,
you know.

Just to be careful.

You won't have to leave me here, will
you?

No, not if I've got anything to do with
it.

Come on.

Don't take long, she said.

Only two bleeding hours.

I've stopped moaning today.

It takes time to check him.

Where's he going?

I don't know.

A couple of days ago, they told a boy
and

his mother leaving the day before
yesterday, carrying suitcases.

Well, we know that.

Well, the only thing I can suggest is
you take him down to the local social

services. They've got a team that'll
deal with him.

We don't want him dealt with. We want to
find his mum.

Very well, sir.

If you'd care to fill out a missing
person form.

Thanks, but no thanks. We'll sort it out
ourselves.

Come on.

Thank you.

Not bleeding out, they were.

Teddy?

My mum's all right, ain't she?

Of course she is. We would have heard
otherwise.

Don't worry, we'll look after you.

Well, I don't know how you put up with
him all these years.

Well, he won't like it at first.

Never are, love.

Trouble is, it's getting worse now.

I mean, it's hardly a night now when he
ain't drunk.

And he has these really, you know,
violent rages.

I thought you were going to do for me. I
don't know. It's a mystery to me.

I suppose I'm at fault, really.

Don't talk bloody ridiculous, woman.

How's it your fault?

My mother showed me this pig and never
entered it.

I mean, it's a mystery to me why so many
intelligent women stay with men who

constantly bash them about again and
again.

It's pure bloody masochism. Well, I'm
partly to blame because of Peter.

But why, woman?

He doesn't know he didn't father Peter.

Oh, no, love.

You haven't told him up yet.

Some folk don't need to, do they?

You mean he just suspects?

Ah, he always does.

I suppose that's why he's like he is.

He must have kept some up.

No, that's because it's instinct.

I mean, Peter's not like him.

I mean, he's just a small lad.

One is a big man, is he? Oh, aye.

You've never met him, have you?

I've got a picture of you. I only keep
it because it's a nice one of Peter.

Here, look.

Hmm. I see what you mean.

There we are, Arthur.

On me.

Eh? Cheer up.

You got him back grafting, ain't you?

Yeah, but for how long, Dave? How long?

Being lumbered with this kid has
softened his brain.

I saw it so far.

Yeah.

Well, I'd better get over there and give
him his wages.

See if there's been any developments in
water -damaged umbrellas.

Right, where the bloody hell is she?

Right, woman, get your bloody bags back.
You're coming back with me.

How did you...? Because you're a bloody
stupid woman. You forgot to take letters

your bloody mate here sent you, didn't
you?

It didn't take that much working out.
Now get them bags and be quick about it.

And where's the lad?

He's not here.

I didn't bloody ask you.

I think you'd better leave before I call
the police.

You can call all the bloody hell you
like, see if I care.

I said, where's the lad?

I said, where's the lad?

What's going on here, then? None of your
bloody business, mate, whoever you are.

This is my husband.

And this is my bloody wife. And this
happens to be my own mate, so you'd

calm down. Well, see, you should bloody
calm down, mate.

Stop it! Stop it! Leave him alone, you
pig, you bastard! You bloody coward!

Where's the lad?

He's... Will you contact him?

He's with his real father.

There you are. And there's plenty more
where that came from.

No, no, no, no. It's all there. It's all
there. A favour sown is a favour

reaped. Don't start all that again.

Hello? Terry?

Beryl? It's Ronnie. He's coming round to
get Peter.

What shall I do? What shall I do? Well,
hold on. Listen.

Listen, just try and calm down, eh?

Nothing's going to happen to Peter.

I'm sorry, Terry. I didn't tell him.

He got your name and dress out of my
handbag and he guessed.

Don't worry about that now. Just get
yourself over here as fast as you can,

right? My friend's husband will bring me
in his car.

Right. Now, don't worry. Whatever
happens, I can handle it, I promise you.

I'll just keep calm. I'll see you later.
Ta -ra.

That was your mum on the phone. She's on
her way over.

So's his dad.

in the someone's car?

Uh, I thought you called Terry LeCairn.

Well, you found him, didn't you? Right.
You bastard!

Thank you.

You haven't changed much.

Hello, Terry.

I'll get you, you bastard!

I think we'd better have a chat.

Well, perhaps we'd go inside.

Go on.

Go on up.

I'll be up in a minute. Go on.

What I don't understand is, why tell me
he's mine if he's not?

I don't know.

I just thought that if... that if you
thought he was yours... Yes.

I'm sorry.

Sorry for causing you all this trouble.

Do you mean that not the really of the
old man?

No, no.

No, another bloke.

Somebody, uh... Uh, you're married, you
see.

Ah.

I thought you'd be relieved.

Well, yeah, I am, of course.

There's a nice little boy in there.

Hi.

What are you going to do now, then?

Well, marry me mate and her husband.
That's him that brought us here.

They said I can stay with them.

And Peter.

Till I get a job, you know, and
somewhere to live.

Listen, if it's difficult, you can
always stay at my place, you know.

I mean, I sleep on a sofa, you know.

Oh, Terry, no, love.

It's lovely of you to offer, but... No.

I think I've caused you enough trouble,
haven't I?

Well, you know what?

My mate Arthur, he's got friends who've
got property.

Flats and that. Maybe he can fix you up.

Oh, it ain't worked out too badly, has
it?

Listen, you get any more aggravation,
you ring me straight away, all right?

Yeah.

Yeah, I will.

And if it's all right, maybe I could...
Well, maybe I could come and see you,

see that you're all right, and maybe
take Peter out, eh?

Oh, why?

Oh, I'd like that.

Peter would have known, I'm sure.

Well, I think I would as well.

If you want to, I'll change the
situation.

Right people, right time, just the wrong
location.

I've got a good idea.

Just you keep me near. I'll be so good
for you. I could be so good for you.

Get to it.
