You got to go straight through it.

On the other side.

Done the unpacking.

One of us needs to pop to the shop.

Back to the domestic grind with a bang?

Yeah, something like that.

You know, just thinking about last night... Not right now.

Sorry, I'm just tired from travelling.

I saw you were back.

Good trip?

Yes. Thanks for keeping an eye.

Yeah, well, no unwelcome visitors and nothing to report.

Well, apart from this.

Your picture's in the paper.

Is that what you were worried about?

I know it's none of my business, Mia, but is someone looking?

I think.

Right.

Sorry to interrupt your work.

Please, interrupt away. I'm being defeated by spreadsheets. Then, sorry to

to your work.

Ouch. I managed to get some financial docs from the Foundation's lawyers.

Take a look at this.

Those staffing costs.

They aren't normal, are they?

And have a look at the small print.

Part of the Foundation is being administered by a holding company

Hari. Well, that doesn't sound right.

Why would he have done it?

I mean, no idea.

God, these are dull.

Jacob's feed is so boomer. Can't take a photo to save his life.

No way.

Come here.

Is that Mia?

It's not.

It is?

No.

Is it really?

Morning. Morning.

You all looking up?

Your husband's holiday pics.

God, you must be bored.

We were just saying... This woman behind you looks just like Mia.

That's her, right?

Well, obviously it's not.

Right, see you in theatre.

See their reaction?

So if that was Mia, what was she doing in Antwerp?

You can

be honest with

me.

My family can't accept it.

You don't blame me for wanting to die, Mr Pandian.

Hi.

Hi.

Hello, Mr Pandian. Nice to see you.

I need you in theatre, Miss Eldergaard.

Sure.

Hi. Hey. How you doing? Good.

How's Luther?

Young and full of energy, lust for life, busting my balls.

Not in a good way? No, not in a good way.

But you wanted to see me? I did. Could you close the door, please, and have a

seat?

So, um, we've begun an investigation into the death of Mr Green, who, as you

know, died on 28th in cardiac ICU.

Right. And we need to establish a timeline for that day. So I was rather

that, um, that you might be able to, uh... You want a bit of help on the down

life. Exactly.

I just think if I start throwing my weight around, people can get nervous,

can start covering their tracks, and... Well, we just, you know, we want to get

to the truth, so... Yeah, just leave it with me. Really? Yeah.

That'd be great, thank you.

All right, I'll catch you in a bit.

Oh, how was your romantic weekend away?

To the trick.

Oh, yeah.

And a valve tester, please.

And a 2 -0 ethobon future.

Call the retractor so I can

see annulus of tricuspid.

I need suction in the right atrium so I can see the leak.

Maybe we should use the bullet sucker, Charlotte.

Could you please address me by my title in theatre, nurse?

Sorry, Miss Roberts.

Hey.

Sorry I should never have been so familiar in there.

There's so many people gossiping about it as it is.

And what were you doing in Mr Pandian's wardroom?

He isn't a surgical case.

I know Leo's important to you, and I wanted to make sure his father was

the right care. My friendships have no bearing on your nursing decisions.

And stay out of my way. Can we avoid each other at work?

I've devoted him to keep it apart if at all possible.

That's what you think, Spare? Yeah, I do.

For everyone's sake.

Well, perhaps they can stay away from me.

How are you this morning, Dr Robert?

All the better for seeing you, Amber.

I, er... I wonder if you could help me out on the slide.

Just cos it's you.

I could see the ward rota for cardiac ICU, Monday 28th October.

Sure.

Hello, Leeds Royal Hospital.

I can't tell you that information over the phone, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, but I can't help you.

Hello?

Hello?

Who's that?

Someone who keeps ringing for Mia.

You're Jim.

Wouldn't it be nice for us to have a chat?

Waking Dad in the hospital.

Yeah.

No doubt you've invited me round to offer the hand of...

Fraternal friendship?

Just getting my head into the Foundation, how it all works.

It's all Dad wants, really, isn't it?

Just for us to get along for five minutes.

Who are Gramelon Holdings?

It's not a charitable organisation.

OK, it's, um, a smart financial way to separate different parts of the

Foundation's work. By setting up a holding company with you as sole

Dad asked me to run the foundation, yeah, in the best way I see fit.

Does that include threatening to pull funding from the new wing?

I wasn't being threatening. We're just reassessing our priorities, and that

might mean making some difficult decisions.

This project is Dad's dying wish.

It's his legacy.

Yes, but it has to make financial sense, Leo. And right now, it doesn't. I'm

just trying to join the dots, but it's not easy.

Then join the dots.

You can't do this to him.

You've been absent from Dad's life for most of the last two decades, yes?

And every time you returned, you expected this.

Heroes welcome.

And he gave you one, didn't he?

Every time, even though you didn't deserve it.

I put in the hard yards, mate, so you don't get to tell me how to do this job.

You weren't here to do it. I'm here now. Yeah?

Too late.

You'll get your inheritance, okay?

And then you can fuck off back around the world like everyone knows you will.

What?

What?

You can go and bleep to Dad if you like, and then you'll upset him for nothing.

Oh, you know what? Better still, piss off out of our lives like you always do,

and let the grown -ups run things, yeah?

Hi,

Dr Roberts.

Hi. See you later.

Yeah.

Um, Charlotte's being pretty cold to me.

I guess she's just struggling with it all.

Yeah, so am I.

So what do we do?

Have you had something like this happen before?

Do you think I go around Europe having threesomes? I mean, I don't know, but

you've probably got more experience than we do.

Look, in an ideal situation, what do you want to happen next?

Well, I want what Charlotte wants, but we don't know what that is right now,

so... What about me?

What about you?

I mean, we've had our moments.

I mean, there's nothing between us.

Sorry, so... What was I just a way to get to her?

Oh, my God, wounded male pride.

Fuck you. Fuck you.

She's my wife.

Yeah.

And I wonder what your wife would make of your drug use at work.

So you're threatening me now?

I'm protecting myself.

That sounds like the same thing.

Maybe it is.

Good to hear.

He's a good lad at heart, isn't he?

Yeah. Yeah.

It was 100 % Mia. It's so weird. She's literally standing behind them in the

photo. And from what I just saw...

There's definitely something going on between her and Jacob.

Hey.

Jen. Hey.

How are you doing? I haven't seen you in ages.

Well, let's see.

I humiliated myself in front of the whole hospital and me best mate barely

checked on me since.

I'm really sorry.

You know we were away.

I expected a bit more than a text.

I said I'm sorry.

What, is it up with you?

Something is.

I have to go.

I'm sorry, okay? Let's have a drink soon.

I heard Mr Arnold took a turn for the worse.

Uh, yeah.

I'm afraid he's passed away.

How are we doing today, Mr. Ashley?

That is Mr.

Arnold.

Mr. Ashley's over there.

You could have only the patient. You need to get a grip. I'm trying.

Are they doing an autopsy?

There was no reason to do so. He was high risk.

It never gets any easier, does it? You're in a very pleasant moment.

I think some people might find that quite an unusual reality.

Colleen! are often affected by the effect no matter how they behave.

I did my job properly. I have clear conscience.

Do you have a second, Doctor?

If you head in this way.

We had a patient die on Monday, Mr Arnold.

He was pretty high risk. There's no talk of a post -mortem. So what's the

problem? Well, you were in the ward last week when Mia Eldergaard nearly gave a

morphine dose to the wrong patient.

Yeah, you intervened, I recall.

Well, that patient was Mr Arnold.

Oh. I just... Did you find Mia's behaviour odd that day?

I... I don't... I don't remember, honestly. In what way?

Well, like, perhaps she'd taken something.

I... I mean, I'm sure she was just overworked and a bit stressed.

Honestly, I didn't notice anything.

Yeah, OK, yeah, you're probably right.

There's just something about that girl, though, isn't there?

Well, I'll let you get to it, Doctor. Have a good day.

Come on, then.

At the end of the corridor, just flirting with each other.

Him and me? His wife gave her a right dressing down in theatre.

I think we can all guess why that is.

Have a good evening, Doctor.

Don't encourage him.

Nurses should stick together.

I wasn't the one that slagged that patient off after he died.

That's not what happened, Jaden.

It bloody is.

Ask Matron what she thinks of her behaviour.

Do you want a coffee, babe?

No, I'm good, thanks, Ivo.

You know, it's registered.

I feel like I've really seen you since I've been back.

I don't know if you fancy a drink sometime?

Yeah, sure.

Actually, my neighbourhood's having a thing for bonfire night tomorrow, and

Jacob's on a late, unfortunately.

He wouldn't mind?

God, no.

Yeah, that'd be great.

I'll see you then.

OK.

How'd that go?

Yeah.

Hey, David.

Hey. Wow.

How about we go out on the town?

I would love to. I really would. I am nowhere near

done.

I'm so sorry.

I just came in especially to see you. I know, and that was incredibly sweet of

you. But if you had just run, I...

I was told not to waste your time.

Nice outfit, Alyssa. You look gorgeous.

Oh, come on. You do, babe. You look amazing.

It's just that I'm... You can... Another time?

It's always another time. Darling, what do you want me to tell you? I'm really

sorry that I have a really stressful job with stupidly long hours.

Forget it.

I'm going to hang out with some friends. You know, people my age who still know

how to have fun. Alyssa, come on.

I told you I'd come and visit sometime.

No. Thank you.

This is some silly gossip it'll blow over.

You don't have to put on a brave face for me.

What am I supposed to do, just sit here and talk?

Um, there is one thing that I've heard that I wanted to ask.

Yes? Did you go to Antwerp?

Okay, you know what?

I don't need to know.

It's your life.

But you do need to play the game, Mia.

Which means you can't just say anything that comes into your head, and you've

got to be nice to a man. Oh, come on. She's had it in for me since day one.

loves it.

Well, you do make it easy for her.

You're a charming girl, Mia.

You've got to charm the socks off them.

All right.

I'll try.

Good. Challenge accepted.

There's a bonfire down the street. Do you want to come?

Please. On your own, Alan?

Gloria.

I hope they're not having any of these blasted fireworks.

Well, it is bonfire night, isn't it?

Quite likely.

Do you know how upset Mr.

Snuffles gets?

I can hardly imagine.

That's Rob who organised it. Why don't you talk to him about it?

Well, my sister met her husband online, which she never tired of telling me.

I've been so disappointed.

I'm not an old woman. I don't want to meet a pensioner. There are good ones

there.

Let me write the profile for you and I'll tell you the gorgeous queen that

are. I might just let you do that.

Yeah, you should.

Who's that?

That's my friend Alan.

Was he single?

Yeah, he is. He's been on his own since his wife left, but, um...

Why did she leave?

It's complicated.

Is he a murderer?

Or a bank robber? No, none of that.

Well, then introduce me.

All right.

Hey, Alan.

Hi, Mia.

This is my work friend Yvonne. She's a nurse, too.

Nice to meet you, Yvonne. Nice to meet you, Ellen.

Yvonne was saying she's been trying online dating but finds it very

disappointing.

Well, now I know you saved me the bother.

You'd better meet someone the old -fashioned way in real life, wouldn't

Yeah. Can I, um... Can I get either of you anything?

I'm good.

I wouldn't mind having another soup.

Be right back.

Nice neighborhood you live in.

It's your idea of hell, isn't it?

Didn't say that.

Didn't have to.

That's that, you know.

What?

You're cutting sarcasm.

Well, you need cutting down.

Or you did back in the day.

Perhaps you're a more humble foal these days.

Come on, Lottie.

You certainly cut me down to size.

So, how was your romantic weekend?

Why, what have you heard?

Just making conversation.

Yeah, it was... interesting.

Everyone looks lovely in the firelight, Liam.

What time do you finish today?

After your bedtime.

Leeds Royal Hospital. Amber speaking.

Uh, Mia's not here right now. Do you want to leave a message?

As I've told you before, we cannot give out personal information.

Please, can you stop calling?

He's rung before.

We have a stab injury in left chest. Patient's tachycardic and hypertensive.

It's probably a cardiac injury.

Okay.

Hope Jacob doesn't mind me being here.

Well, he's not here, so it's not my problem, is it?

Cheers.

So... How is it really, being back?

Really? Yeah.

I tried to get involved in my family's foundation because I thought it might

impress you.

What?

Yeah.

What an idiot.

And then I got dangled up and found out something that might break my dad's

heart. So, Jesus.

Sounds grim.

Why did you think it would impress me?

I don't know.

I've always cared far too much what you thought of me.

I put on a front and shook hands with a lot of very dull people.

So I hope it was worth it.

I've been doing that for the past 20 years.

What are you doing at the front?

You're a brilliant heart surgeon. What you do is real. No, but being Dr

Charlotte Roberts, all the rest of it, internal politics, tedious

sexism, expectations as to how I behave, all of that.

It takes such emotional energy.

I think I'm just realising it.

It kind of caught me having a bit of a midlife crisis, I think. I'm a bit of a

fucking mess right now.

Aren't we all?

Well, I didn't think so until recently.

What changed?

It's kind of hard to explain.

My finger is on the right ventricular stab. Give 3 -O -proline with Pledgic.

Quickly.

Suction. The heart's empty. He's lost a lot of blood. We need six units O

negative. We have two units here now. We need six. I know that. Four are on the

way.

I heard your wife had a right go at your favourite nurse the other day.

Here you go.

Blood is here.

Did I touch a nerve?

No.

Fucking beat him like that again in theatre.

I'll smack your teeth in.

It's a joke.

What the hell is wrong with you, you nut?

And

then

out of the blue, there you are.

Reminding me of a simpler life.

When we were young and carefree.

Come on, Monty. We were.

Big old mess, too.

I'm sorry.

You don't have to say it. Yes, I do.

I'm sorry.

I took a sensible option.

And I've always wondered if it was the right one. Or whether we should have

together.

Please don't do this to me.

I've still got the ticket.

I can't imagine how hard it must have been to get on the plane without me.

You have heard things.

Is Jacob having an affair?

I'm sorry.

Very personal question, but... You deserve to be with someone who's good

for you. It's not that.

There is someone else that we've... Both.

With Mia in Antwerp.

And I think it's screwed everything up.

I swear, nothing like this has ever happened before. I've never even been

attracted to a woman before, let alone kissed one.

I think she's quite into me, and I also think that she's crazy.

Wow.

I thought I was supposed to be the wild one.

I know.

Or has it screwed things up? I don't know.

It's on me, Jacob. It's not enough.

I need more than that.

Why? Why do I suddenly feel like this? Maybe you were bored and

you needed to shake things up and that's what this has done and now you're

confused.

Yeah.

No. So?

Friends?

Friends.

Oh, shit, that's him.

Do you want me to let myself out the back?

Yeah, I'm sorry. Yeah.

How was the bonfire?

Yeah, it was fun. How was work?

Don't ask.

Edgar?

Just briefly.

Mia?

If you must know, it was Leo I invited him to the fireworks.

Was Mia there?

Why are you suddenly being weird about Mia?

I'm not. I'm just asking.

I thought you were very much in favour of me being part of our lives.

Is that what you want?

No, I think it was a fucking stupid thing to do and I massively regret it.

Or is it that you just want it all to yourself? Is that the end game?

I don't think it's me she's interested in.

I thought you were on shift today.

I swapped with someone.

You're not avoiding coming into work, are you?

No. Is this some salad?

Peas and bread?

Simple review, is that okay?

Oh, thank you. That's very kind of you.

Excuse me.

Hi. Come in.

Hello, Yvonne.

I didn't know you were going to be here.

Sorry, I forgot to mention.

I guess I've got to pop out for ten minutes, but why don't you just check in

I'll be right back.

I didn't know either.

I think this is what you call a stitch -up.

Well, it would be a shame to let good food go to waste.

We didn't talk much at the bonfire.

What is it that you do?

I'm a bookkeeper.

Hmm.

Pretty dull, really.

Any hobbies?

A bit of gardening, that sort of thing.

Mm -hm.

I'm not very exciting, I'm afraid, sorry.

I'll be the judge of that.

Mia said that you've got quite a complicated past.

But you seem like such a gentle man.

I can't imagine.

How did you get into nursing?

Is your secret that bad?

Look, I don't know what you want me to say. I didn't... This wasn't my idea.

I think I should go.

No, no, please stay.

You've not even touched your salad.

I don't like salads.

I don't actually believe anyone likes salad. Do you like salad?

I do.

Well, then, it's just doom from the start.

Hey, guys.

Look who I found. Henry. I think I got a little bit lost.

Hello. Henry, is it? Please sit down.

Hmm. Are you feeling any dizziness, Henry?

Never felt better.

Stop fussing.

Mia? Hi.

I just found Henry wandering on the street. He's absolutely fine. God.

Oh, Christ.

I'm just about to go into another op.

Let me see if I can cancel it. No, no, no. Don't worry. He's fine. I'm here

Alan and Yvonne, and we can look after him.

We can take him back.

Tell Alan that's really kind.

Okay, so I'll just text you when we get him to the care home.

Thanks, Nia.

My pleasure.

Patient's ready, Miss Roberts.

Oh, Jacob, Jacob. I just wanted to ask... I wanted to ask you how the

investigation thing was going.

Er, well, yeah, I don't mean to alarm you, but I might have found something.

Something or someone?

Look, I've got a cross -reference to a few rotors, but I'll get back to you.

Okay. Okay, great.

But sooner rather than later, yeah?

Yeah.

Thanks.

Still here?

Long day.

Yeah. Tell me about it.

Look, I'm afraid I need a new staffing rota.

Ward 5, Monday the 4th?

Thanks.

Who is it that keeps ringing for me?

Some guy from Norway.

He's such a dick.

He won't give up.

Give me his number.

Let me deal with it.

I shouldn't.

I'll handle it.

Hi.

I wanted to thank you for everything that you did for my dad today.

Nothing.

No, the care home said that you were so kind to him.

Yeah, he's a really lovely man.

He was fine, just a bit confused.

I feel so guilty about it all.

Mum only died a year ago, and now I'm losing Dad as well, so...

I know that feeling.

I love both my parents.

I'm so sorry to hear that.

It's alright.

Would you like to come in?

Hi, my name's Dr.

Jacob Roberts.

I believe you've been calling for Mia Eldegard?

Why? What's she done?

I should also apologize for how I talked to you in the theater.

I guess they're all gossiping about us, huh?

They know that you're in Antwerp.

Which is why I need to keep my distance.

Sorry.

Okay.

So, what about us? What do you mean, us?

What happened doesn't mean what you think it means. I told you, I am a

old married surgeon. I don't believe you. What do you want from me?

I don't know what you want.

I don't know why you feel the need to do this.

Sorry,

I just feel like you're playing games and I'm done with it.

I can't just blow up my life.

But you want me.

You want me.

Go do it.
