Original subtitles

Are you ready for this?

Well, ready as I'll ever be.

You'll be fine! I'm with you.

Thelma and Louise.

Bonnie and Clyde.

Come on.

[ Camera shutter clicking ]

NASREEN: That one. That one there.

Just a little more to the left.

Don't think that's it, but thanks for your help.

Whew.

-All good. -Let's get out of here.

Freeze!

Stop there.

Book 'em, Doris!

-No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. -It's alright, it's alright.

-NASREEN: Oh! -GRANNY: Don't move!

[ Up-tempo music plays ]

Right, what -- what happens now?

-Chill out, will ya? -Chill out?

How do you expect me to chill out, Sam?

We've been arrested.

I still can't believe I let you talk me into this!

Why? Why?

It didn't take much persuading, as I remember.

Calm down, will ya?

It was your first time.

Just say you're really sorry and you'll never do it again.

-Ohh. -Keep the crying up.

That's good. You'll be totally fine.

[ Door opens ]

Why do you want this job?

What stupid question is that?

Kaneez, it's a standard interview question.

Oh, okay, okay.

I want the job, yes.

Why?

Because I'm bloody here, innit?

Huh? That's a standard bloody answer.

Look at us. What are we holding?

Okay, okay. Ah, you know, I just --

I'm a very, very good -- a good communicator.

Yeah, I talk to students.

And what do you talk to them about?

Oh, you know, "You want chips or jacket potato?

Get your hands off counter.

I'll give you bloody tappur," you know.

What other attributes do you have, Mrs. Paracha?

Oh, you know, I got a -- got a lot --

I got a lot of --

I got a lot of passion, hmm?

You know, like the Nigella on the TV.

-Hm? -Can you elaborate?

Oh, yeah.

N-No, in -- in what way are you passionate?

Oh, yeah, I'm -- I'm very --

I'm -- I just, uh -- I just --

I really love --

You know what I love? I love when I'm kneading --

when I'm kneading the dough, you know, to make the chapati.

Oh, you know.

I just love the feeling of the flour, the water, the atta.

It make me very, very passionate.

You know, I just love it, enah.

What on earth are you talking about?

I'm being bloody passionate like the Nigella!

[ Laughter ]

This is a stupid idea.

[ Muffled shouting ]

Oh, wow!

[ Cheering ]

It's our Sam. It's Sammy!

They don't look too bothered.

'Course not. I just popped me cherry.

[ Seat belt clicks ]

[ Cheering ]

NADINE: Yes!

That's my girl! Chip off the old block!

[ Cheering continues ]

Sorry I got nabbed.

Sorry? I'm proud of you, darling, eh?

Let's face it.

You were handicapped with Tonto in there.

-Oh. [ Laughs ] -REECE: Come on!

I don't want to have to come out here.

Yeah, don't give me advice about my family, alright?

See ya.

No, it's alright.

Go on, keep walking.

OFFICER: Just listen to what I'm saying.

Bloody shoplifting?!

I didn't bring you up to do this stealing!

Oh, I don't want to talk about it.

You're talking about it, because the whole street

see you come home in a bloody police car!

You bring shame on me and on yourself!

What is your problem, Mum?

It's just a caution. They didn't charge me.

KANEEZ: Oh, you're so proud of that?

Why don't you send me postcard from jail next time?

Oh, my God, calm down!

I'm not having no criminal living under my roof!

From now on, things are going to change.

You go to work, you come straight home,

and you go nowhere else.

Oh, no, tell you what, Mum, 'cause you can't ground me

because I am not 12!

Yes, I can.

It's my house, my rules.

Well, what you gonna do, Mum?

Are you gonna throw me out?

Are you?

Say it! Go on, say it!

-Nas, that's enough. -No, no, no, no!

-I wanna hear her say it! -RASHID: I said enough!

Stay out of my way.

All of you!

[ Door slams ]

[ Indistinct conversations ]

Good morning, everyone.

I am Miss Oakes.

I shall be standing in for Miss Carter

while she is off on maternity leave.

First off, A levels.

[ All groaning ]

Save your groans for when those results come through

and you have failed to attain

the grades needed for university!

Save your groans for when you find yourself

working at the Chirpy Chirpy Cheap Cheap Chicken Shack

and you realize you are allergic to deep-fat frying,

as your fingers start to blister and bleed pus.

Any questions?

When you say --

Good.

Now...

I am not going to spin you the old "Don't fail yourselves,

your parents, or the school" speech.

I don't care about any of that.

I just want you to remember not to fail me.

Success, nothing less.

-[ Indistinct conversations ] -SAM: Hey!

Did you know he was dumping me from the team?!

-MARTIN: Alright, calm down. -I am calm!

Yeah, I was thinking more lullaby calm.

And, uh, I didn't say dumped.

I said suspended from being captain.

MARTIN: Should we talk about this outside?

Did you not have the guts to tell me to my face?

Should we talk about this outside, please?

Come on.

In light of your arrest,

it was only right to take away your captaincy.

It wasn't even in school!

[ Sighs ] I don't care where you were, Sam.

Being a captain means taking on responsibility.

Yeah, something she seems to have forgotten about.

Yes, thank you, Mr. Nawaz.

I'm just stating hard facts.

It's about setting an example, okay?

Can you go away, please? Please? And stop filming!

Go away and stop filming!

Thank you.

You're meant to set an example, right.

So do you think getting arrested

and ending up in the back of a police car

is the kind of role model I want for my school?

Just convince me

that you can take a more responsible attitude,

and then you can go back to being team captain.

That'll happen.

Not with this kind of attitude, it won't.

Please. Mr. -- Mr. Nawaz, please.

You were made captain because we believed in you.

You are everything this school needs in a leader.

-Believe me. -Yeah, right.

Sam! Sam, come --

You're wasting your time with her.

The only qualification she's after

is a Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves

and a great big swastika dangling from it.

Kids are not born racist, Sadiq. They're made.

Yeah, I know.

There's a production line at the Murgatroyd house.

Right, well, that's where I'll start, then.

SADIQ: Good luck.

[ Horn honks ]

[ Engine shuts off ]

SAM: What you doing here?

MARTIN: I was hoping to carry on our conversation.

SAM: I think you said everything you needed to say.

Yeah, but I didn't ask you why.

Why what?

Well, why the shoplifting?

-'Cause I felt like it. -Yeah, but why now?

Did you feel you had to?

Was somebody putting pressure on you to do it?

Is that an Adolf Hitler gnome?

You know, you can get arrested for curb crawling.

And it'll be more than a caution you get.

Oi, leave my daughter alone, or I'll call the police.

Yeah, we've been here before, haven't we?

NADINE: Do one.

Look, if Sam attends school on a regular basis

and keeps putting the work in,

she could be captain again in no time at all.

And she is more than capable of getting some A levels.

Alright, isn't that's what we all want?

Nice car.

New, is it?

She's working with me.

Is that what you want, is it?

I think I know what is best for my kid, so butt out!

Oh, wow, some parental responsibility at last!

We both know what you think is right

because it ended up in a police caution, didn't it?

Look, I want to help my mum out, too.

Can't I do both?

School has to be the priority, Sam.

It has to be.

Right, I think we've had enough lectures!

MARTIN: Fine.

What do you think you're playing at, eh?

Standing there listening to him talk down his nose at us?

Look, I'm sorry, Mum.

I didn't know he was gonna come looking for me.

I've had enough of that one.

Some people just don't know when to give up.

[ Indistinct conversations, knock on door ]

SUE: Oh, Miss Carter, what can I do for you?

I was just looking for the short list

for the student support officer's job.

Oh.

Um...

Ah.

Ta-da!

Oh, there's only four candidates.

I know.

Uh, if you notice,

I've highlighted the ones I wouldn't bother with.

Right, which -- which just leaves the one name

circled with golden stars.

Janet Crabbe. She comes very highly recommended.

She's done mainly admin work to date,

but she did run her own kennels and cattery for a time.

Okay.

I see you -- you've left Kaneez's name off there.

I thought that was a joke.

Am I laughing?

She wears a tabard, for heaven's sake.

[ Scoffs ]

We mustn't be prejudiced towards tabard wearers, now, must we?

BOY: Oh, look at that. It's disgusting.

What is that?

Come and have a look.

[ Indistinct talking ]

Miss, I thought you put jam in recipe?

[ Laughter ]

SALEEM: That is not jam, bro.

That's a serious sani malfunction, that, miss.

Oh, come on! That's disgusting.

Who was sat in there? Who were sat in that chair?

SUE: Don't be ridiculous.

Have you not seen a bit of menstrual blood before?

-[ Sobbing ] -SUE: Stop the dramatics.

It's a perfectly natural process.

Get a mop and clean it up.

-Me? -[ Laughter ]

NADINE: Right, it's that one.

In and out in minutes. That's all it takes.

What if they've got an alarm? Or a guard dog?

REECE: They don't!

We checked it out.

You bottling it?

No.

Well, if you're not up for it, then --

I am! I've just never done anything like this before.

This is major league now, yeah?

Reece'll be with you.

Do what he says.

And I'll be waiting outside.

Okay?

-Alright, you got this. -REECE: Come on.

Get that.

Get the charger.

Reece?

Go and have look upstairs.

Hurry up!

Go on.

[ Step creaks ]

[ Door creaks ]

-Are you the tooth fairy? -[ Gasps ]

Shh! Be quiet!

MARTIN: Isla?

CHARLIE: Dad!

-You got his keys? -Go! Yes. Go!

MARTIN: Isla?

Where you going?

CHARLIE: Dad!

MARTIN: What do you think you're doing?

Charlie get back to your room.

-Gaynor, ring the police! -[ Engine revs ]

Oi!

NADINE: Leave her! Let's go!

REECE: We can't leave without her!

-Drive! -We can't leave her!

Drive! Just drive!

Drive now! Drive!

-REECE: Get in. -Go.

Surprise, surprise.

Yes!

Yes! Whoo! What a rush!

Yes!

Why didn't you tell me it was his house?

He could have seen me!

Yeah, but he didn't, though, did he?

That's not the point!

Well, what is the point, Sam, eh?

Who cares whether you knew or not?

I do!

You should have cared about getting the job done properly,

and you wouldn't have even known it were him.

What?

You sounded like a baby elephant up them stairs.

No wonder he heard you.

Christ, I could hear you from outside!

Look, it's all about stealth, yeah?

You better get yourself some if you wanna survive in this game.

That is twice you've been caught now.

[ Scoffs ] I'm beginning to wonder

whether you've got what it takes.

This is where we have our fine-dining experience.

I suggest you bring a packed lunch. [ Chuckles ]

[ Indistinct conversations ]

And do they all speak English?

Oh.

Kaneez, this is Janet Crabbe.

She's going up for the same job as you.

Oh, really?

I'm just giving her a tour so she'll know her way around.

Okay.

Nice jumper.

Meow!

SUE: [ Laughs ] She's dead funny.

Yeah, you'll want to keep that sense of humor in this place,

I'm telling you.

No competition. It'll be a shoo-in.

Sorry.

I was out of order, bro.

Look, I've got a big gob.

I don't think before I speak.

I don't even think.

I didn't have any tampons.

Too much information.

We ran out, alright?

We can't afford 'em. We get 'em from food bank.

Can I just stop you?

You know, people are eating and all that.

No.

You should know what you thought were dead funny.

-It wasn't. -RUKHSANA: Look, I'm sorry.

I'm dead sorry, alright?

No.

No, it's not alright.

[ Exhales sharply ]

[ Indistinct conversations ]

CLINT: Sir's had his house robbed.

They cleared it right out.

HAYLEY: First they torch his car.

Now they rob his house and take his new one.

TAHIRA: Skanks.

Gotta be someone from here.

CLINT: Yeah, they even took the lamb out of the fridge and all.

What did you have for dinner last night?

Shut it!

Ooh, touchy.

MARTIN: Right, class, thank you for your patience.

CHLOE: Sorry about your house getting robbed, sir.

MARTIN: Thank you, Chloe.

ZAIN: Did you get a punch in, sir?

MARTIN: Oh, I didn't dare, Zain.

-Do you know why? -ZAIN: Why?

Because they were ninja warriors

highly trained in the martial arts

of scaring little girls half to death.

And I'm sure they're feeling very pleased

and proud of themselves today.

Another job well done.

Hooray!

But thank you all for your concern.

Now, shall we do some, uh, what's the word, learning?

-Yes, let's do some learning. -[ Students groaning ]

Yes, come on.

[ School bell rings ]

[ Indistinct conversations ]

-GIRL: Thanks, sir. -MARTIN: You're alright.

-Thanks, sir. -You're welcome.

-Bye, sir. -Oh, Sam.

Sam, could I have a chat, please?

See you next time.

Mind how you go.

-ZAIN: Cheers, sir. -MARTIN: Well done today, Zain.

-Well done. -ZAIN: Thanks.

Take care.

[ Door closes ]

Sorry about yesterday.

W--

My chat with -- with your mum.

Right.

I always manage to rub her up the wrong way, don't I?

Yeah, you do.

Why's that, do you think?

Maybe 'cause you look like a prison officer

and the fact you locked her in a storeroom.

Too much? Yeah, too much.

Well, while we're on the subject, I was wondering --

and this might sound...

You know, um...

Well, you've got cousins, right, and they know people.

And your mum probably knows even more people.

And I was just wondering

if you heard of anyone selling any dodgy gear.

-You could -- -You looking for a grass, sir?

No, that's not what I'm saying,

although technically you do have a point.

You think we're to blame

for everything 'round here, don't you?

You think we're dirt!

-I'm not saying that. -Yes, you are!

Everything my mum said about you is true.

You can stuff your class.

MARTIN: Sam.

Right, so I wanted you to come up with 10 facts,

including diagrams, yes?

Now, Mr. Haider, Mr. Wilson,

would you both please stand up?

Come on, stand up.

And open your workbooks. Come on.

And read after I count to three in unison, please.

Yeah, about that, sir. Um, didn't get 'round to it.

Really, Mr. Wilson.

I think you do yourself a disservice, my boy.

Oh, yes.

Turn to your last page, please.

Go on.

What is that?

-Oh. [ Chuckles ] -Ah!

Yeah, uh, yeah, I did it.

Oh, yes, you did. Well done.

Okay, now, after three, please.

Ready?

One, two, three, and...

BOTH: "Gonorrhea is a sexually transmitted disease

commonly known as 'the clap.'"

Beautiful. Continue, please.

BOTH: "Many people who have contracted gonorrhea

-present no symptoms at all." -Yes.

BOTH: "But when they do present,

symptoms may include a white-, yellow-, beige-,

or green-colored discharge from the penis, vagina, or anus."

RASHID: Yes.

Wasn't that lovely?

Now, apart from the fact

that you don't get discharge from the anus --

not that I'm speaking from personal experience --

can anybody point out what else is wrong?

Can you catch it from monkeys?

-[ Laughter ] -[ School bell rings ]

Cory, Naveed, remain behind, please.

-[ Indistinct conversations ] -Alright, thank you, sir.

An explanation, gentlemen, if you please?

Well, Cory?

Well -- Right, the thing is, sir, I --

It were me.

I copied Cory's work.

I'm sorry. I had a comedy gig.

I didn't get time to do mine.

Did it not occur to you that Mr. Hyatt

was gonna read both sets of homework?

RASHID: Go.

Your sheer incompetence insults me.

Go on!

[ Footsteps depart ]

[ Indistinct conversations ]

-What were that about? -Sorry.

Just trying to help.

I've done your English, as well.

I hope you done better than the biology.

Sexually transmitted diseases?

A-level syllabus.

And, uh, they'd believe that coming from you.

-[ Laughs ] -What's that suppose to mean?

Mate, you don't even shower.

Yeah. And what, they love it?

[ Door closes ]

Nas.

Nas.

Listen, I'm sorry about the other day.

You've got every reason to be mad at me.

I shouldn't have let you do it. You mean more to me than that.

I know that. You know that.

Do I?

Nas, I need to talk to you.

I don't know what I'm doing anymore.

I'm gettin' way in over my head here.

-What do you mean? -Well, we --

What you on about?

We --

We did Mr. Evershed's house.

You did what?!

I didn't know it was his house.

Is that supposed to make it any better?!

You shouldn't have been in anyone's house, Sam!

How could you do that?

-Well? -I d-- I don't know.

I think I did it for me mum.

[ Laughs ] You think?

You -- You "think"?

Cor, you are being ridiculous.

I should have known that your mum was at the bottom of this.

When are you going to get it into your head, Sam?

Oh, just shut up and listen to me, will you?!

You asked me why, and I'm telling you!

You should have seen her,

dead chuffed with me when I said I'd do it,

like she were proud of me.

We were like, you know...

you and your mum.

And then I was in the house.

I heard his voice. It was too late!

It was like she was testing me.

What?!

Testing what?

Loyalty.

[ Scoffs ]

Oh, my God.

Do you see how messed up that is?

No, Nas, you don't understand.

Do you hear yourself?

What is there to understand, Sam?

Tell me. Tell me.

Because she is evil.

Stop it! Don't say that about her.

You -- It's not that simple. You're not listening to me.

You're seriously sticking up for her

after everything she's done to you?

She's still my mum.

I don't believe this.

It's bad enough that she is --

she's encouraging you to break the law,

but this is -- this is a new level, Sam.

This is not how a mother behaves.

Maybe not yours.

But it's how mine does, and it's the only one I've got.

I don't know who you are anymore.

-Nas. -No, don't.

Don't?

What do you mean "don't"?

You knew who I was when you started seeing me,

knew what I did.

Didn't hear anyone saying "don't" then.

Go on, walk away! It's what you always do!

I don't need you!

I know who I am! I know what I am!

-[ Knocking ] -Can I come in?

Free country, innit?

Ah, someone's been a busy girl.

Thought I'd practice my stealth.

Oh, nice to see you've found it.

Like I said, you're a chip off the old block, aren't you, eh?

Look, I'm sorry about the other night.

I knew if I told you it were gonna be his house,

-you wouldn't have gone in. -Too right I wouldn't.

Well, you might not think it, but I do care about you.

I'm not a kid anymore, Mum.

NADINE: I know that.

But sometimes, you've got to put your personal feelings aside,

and if that means doing something we don't like,

it's tough.

We just do it.

We can't let outsiders come between us.

Yeah?

Loyalty, trust.

That is the glue that keeps us together.

-Alright? -Yeah.

Ah.

Come here.

Come here.

Get up!

[ Chuckles ]

Thanks, Mum.

Don't forget to hand any credit cards over to our Reece.

Thanks.

[ Sobbing ]

It's okay. It's okay.

Shh.

I don't -- I don't know who I am anymore, Mum.

And all this -- all this stuff with Sam.

I thought -- I thought we were on the same page,

that w-- that we wanted the same things, but --

I don't even know what she means to me anymore.

I know.

I just need Missy back.

I wish I could take this pain away from you.

I can't.

But, you know, your life not over.

And anything can happen for you.

You want to know what my advice is, huh?

As Student Support Officer Paracha?

I do. I do.

Come back to school.

Oh.

[ Knock on door ]

You alright, love?

Mrs. Gartside?

Yeah.

Mrs. Gartside, Spud's mum?

Yeah.

For Spud.

* I'm gonna take it all off of you anyway *

* Can we procrastinate? *

* Can we strip away the pressure? *

* Let's get naked and escape under the sheets **

TOGETHER: * Piña colada, piña colada, piña colada *

You glad you made up with your mum?

-Family, aren't we? -REECE: Yeah.

Still, that's a bit of a crappy thing to do, innit?

What?

REECE: In your teacher's house.

Her trying to drive off.

* Piña colada, yeah *

ADAM: Come on, Reece, give us a song.

-I've been up already. -Come on, man.

[ Laughs ]

Kyan, you get up.

What you saying?

She was screaming at me to go,

even before your teacher came out.

"Drive! Drive! Go!"

Going mental, she were, honest.

[ Laughing ] Oh, God.

[ Muffled sound ]

[ Laughing ]

[ Distorted talking ]

I know what you did.

Did you hear me?

I know what you wanted to do to me at Mr. Evershed's.

TOGETHER: * Piña colada, piña colada, yeah *

* Piña colada, piña colada, piña colada, yeah *

* Piña colada, piña colada, piña colada, yeah *

* Come and take my piña colada, piña colada, yeah *

* Piña colada, piña colada, piña colada, yeah *

* Piña colada, piña colada, piña colada, yeah *

[ Engine shuts off ]

[ Footsteps approach ]

GAYNOR: Sam, isn't it?

MARTIN: Who is it?

Sam?

What you doing here?

It doesn't matter. I shouldn't have come.

Well, you're here now.

You may as well come inside and talk.

[ Stammers ]

MARTIN: Come on. Come inside.

Come on. It's freezing.

[ Sighs ]

What's going on, Sam? Is it your mum?

It was you in my house, wasn't it?

Wasn't it?

Do you have any idea what it feels like

to be scared in your own home?

Do you know what it feels like

to wake up and find a stranger in your house

where your children are sleeping?

Do you know what that feels like, Sam?

[ Sobbing ]

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I'm not blaming you. It's not your fault.

I-It's just --

It's unfair what your mother is doing to you.

Come here.

Come here.

Listen to me.

You have got nothing to be scared of, alright?

I'm just so relieved you've finally told me

what's been going on.

I'm sorry.

I know you are.

It's okay. You --

It's not your fault.

Listen to me. It's not your fault.

Alright?

Are you gonna go to the police?

I am not gonna do anything that makes you unhappy.

Alright?

But if you feel it's right --

No, I don't know if I know what's right anymore.

Yes, you do.

You do. Look at me. You do.

Because you wouldn't be here if you didn't.

Yeah.

It's down to me, isn't it?

Yeah.

It's down to me.

You ready?

Never mind me. Are you?

Yeah, I'm ready.

Okay, right, shall we have a little practice?

So, Mrs. Paracha, what can you bring to the table?

Commitment, compassion, and encouragement.

-And? -[ Knock on door ]

And a bloody tappur on the head if you don't listen to me.

Oh.

It's for you.

Sam.

Missed you.

I-I want us to get back together.

Look, you were right about my mum.

I'm sorry for getting you in trouble with the police.

I'd take it all back in a heartbeat if I could.

I love you, Nas.

Say something.

Anything.

I have got so much going 'round in my head at the minute, Sam.

I can't deal with you and all this and --

I'm going back to school. [ Sniffles ]

I wanna get my life back on track.

I can't do this anymore. I can't.

What about us?

So that's it, then?

Sorry, Sam.

[ Door opens ]

[ Sobbing ]

MARTIN: Mercutio, who is Romeo's friend and killed by Tybalt.

-Thanks. -For what?

Not many Asians come knocking on our door.

Do you not eat takeaway, bro?

MARTIN: We also have...

Wanna come over for your tea tonight?

MARTIN: ...banishes Romeo...

-Tea? -Yeah.

Why would I wanna do that?

MARTIN: Paris, Juliet's fiancé, killed by Romeo, to...

Uh, what you having?

Fish fingers and beans.

Well, I don't normally have it, but, yeah, sounds great.

What, are you -- are you sure?

Yeah, 'course.

Great. Well, I'll let Mum know.

Benvolio, who is Romeo's peaceful friend.

[ Cellphone vibrates ]

You shouldn't be on your phone, sir.

Sorry.

I'm not allowed on my phone,

so why should you be allowed on your phone?

BOY: What is he doing?

He doesn't let us go on ours.

So what is it, do you think,

that you'll be able to bring to this job?

Uh, well...

MANDY: Passion and commitment,

an understanding as to how this school really functions.

I mean, I'd have thought that your position in the canteen

has provided the perfect platform to observe the school

from all angles, its strengths and its foibles.

Um, yeah, yeah.

And what do you think would make a good student support officer?

What would make a good --

MANDY: Patience and understanding,

which I think you have in spades, Kaneez.

And tolerance.

I mean, you're streetwise.

You've got eyes in the back of your head.

Half the teachers wouldn't dare cross you, let alone the kids.

I mean, I include myself in that.

And finally, in your own words,

could you tell us which British qualifications you hold?

MANDY: Oh, enough of that.

There's plenty of time for all that.

SUE: I don't know if there is, Miss Carter.

Well, there's a lot you don't know, Mrs. Carp, isn't there?

And what's that supposed to mean?

-MANDY: Well, what it means -- -Stop, please, both of you.

You're behaving like the kids.

Miss Carter, thank you for the help,

but I-I can speak for myself.

And you, Mrs. Carp,

you should keep your bloody opinions to yourself.

You have no right to treat me the way you do this week.

You're meant to be fair, not taking sides.

The kids expect it. I expect it.

And I have to tell you, you've failed.

Huh? You think you know this job?

Well, everybody thinking they know this job.

What is this? It's all bloody nonsense.

Yeah, everyone talking about compassion

or, uh, understanding kid, listening to kid.

All the time I've been here,

I see next to bloody nothing of this.

The teacher have no time, and the people like you, Mrs. Carp,

well, they think they're too bloody good for it.

There are kids here being left behind, just forgotten.

And this job is a 24/7.

It's not a half past 3:00, let's go home.

No, because these kid,

they're taking their problem home with them.

And they need to feel

like we are going home with them, as well.

You know, they should never feel alone.

It's that bloody simple.

When can you start?

-RUKHSANA: Thank you. -Come on, Spud.

You sure you don't want some more?

-Yeah, I'm sure. -Okay, then.

Do you eat trifle, Ruky?

Uh, no, thanks.

I'll have some.

Did you tell her to say that?

-What? -RUKHSANA: Ruky.

No, why?

Only certain people call me that.

Should I tell her not to?

No, No. It's nice. I like it.

Can I call you it, then?

Sure.

Great. You can, uh -- You can call me Spud.

I do, bro.

How do you think Martin's coping with me?

Oh, he's fine. Yeah. He understands.

Does he?

I wouldn't.

Oh, there's Cory. Cory?

Hiya.

SIAN: Hi. Here for a takeaway?

-Yeah. -ZAIN SR.: Cory!

Oh, I think your food's ready.

Hurry up and get changed. They need help in the kitchen.

I work here.

As a waiter.

Most nights, actually.

Well, that's not gonna get you through your exams, is it?

How on earth do you get your homework done?

You don't, do you?

Partner in crime does it for you.

What's that?

CORY: I need the extra money.

Our kid's in college, and Dad's out of work.

I'll tell you what.

Why don't you come and see me on Monday?

We'll see if we can organize some extra study time

for you during the day.

Get your homework done then.

Yeah, sound that, miss.

I actually thought you were pretty tough,

but you're alright.

Great, well, that's that sorted.

Hop to it. Make mine spicy.

Aw.

Well done, Miss Oakes.

Where have you been?

Worried, were you?

I were, actually.

You took off like a bat out of hell.

Right state you were in with your wild accusations.

-Oh, just shut it. -You what?

Just shut it! You heard me.

I said shut it!

-Watch your mouth. -I know you.

This won't work on me anymore.

'Cause I don't owe you anything. Do you hear me?

See, doing it again.

I know what you wanted to do to me at Mr. Evershed's.

I know!

And you have no idea how I feel, do you?

What do you know, huh?

You don't know anything.

SAM: Why Mr. Evershed's?

[ Sighs ] Because he's a stuck-up, pompous prat

who didn't learn his lesson the first time.

What's going on?

No one tells me what is best for my kid

and treats me like dog turd

he's just picked up on the bottom of his shoe.

His daughter was there!

And so were mine when he humiliated me!

Will you pack it in?!

You're jealous of him?

[ Exhales sharply ] Don't be so bloody stupid.

SAM: Wow.

Is that what all this has been about?

Because he cares?

I'm your mum.

I look after you, not him.

Me getting arrested.

Was that all part of being a mother?

Just so he'd see me robbing him.

You were willing to do that to me just to spite him?

He were trying to turn you against us, against me!

-[ Door closes ] -Do you not see?

Trying to come between us.

He would have you in care before you knew it, hm?

-And then what would you do? -Not six months in juvie.

I j-- I just --

What? Come on, what?

He made me feel like a bad --

And I'm not.

I'm not.

And it were true what I said

about all I ever did inside were think about you.

So much has happened to you, and I weren't there.

And then when I got out...

...what did I know about you, mm?

I didn't even know my own kid anymore.

And he...

he could see what you were capable of.

[ Sobbing ]

I'm so, so sorry.

Look at me.

I would do -- I would do --

I would do anything for you.

Anything.

Anything?

Mm-hmm.

You'd better go.

You better go.

-Go now. -[ Doorbell ringing ]

-[ Pounding on door ] -Go.

OFFICER: Police. Open up.

MR. MURGATROYD: Oi, what are you doing?

You can't just walk into my house.

What have you done?

OFFICER: Please step aside.

Nadine Murgatroyd,

I'm arresting you on suspicion of burglary,

handling stolen goods, and theft of a motor vehicle.

You do not have to say anything, but it may harm your defense

if you do not mention, when questioned,

something which you later rely on in court.

I'm sorry.

Hey, hey.

Anything.

[ Mr. Murgatroyd shouting indistinctly ]

-No. -[ Engine starts ]

[ Up-tempo music plays ]
