VOICEMAIL: Hiya,
it's Debbie Rafferty.

What you ringing me for?
Just drop me a text.

Wherever you are,
you better get here now.

If you've forgotten,
I swear to God, Debs.

Ring me back when you get this.

Just stop with all the drama.

Debs could be on her way to school
for all you know.

Well, you'd think
she'd give drinking a miss

the night before my meeting.
She's out every single night.

It's not every night.
Where's my stuff gone?!

It's not every night.
No, it is.

That's why she said it to me.
She said it to me.

All right. Hey, hey, hey,
look at me. Look at me, please.

Look at me.

Look at me, Auntie Nicky. Eyes, OK?

Right, listen, even if she doesn't
make your meeting... Oh!

..even if she doesn't make your
meeting, I will be there for you.

You're going to get
your diagnosis, OK?

It's gonna be fine, OK? Promise.

All right? Yeah.

Good girl.
I'm fine.

All right.

See ya, kid. See ya.

DOOR SHUTS

Do you have to do that?

What now?
Putting your sister down.

NICKY HUFFS

She's doing her best.
Yeah, right.

DOOR SHUTS

What's all this for?

Breakfast like a king, remember?
Setting you up for the day.

And more to the point, I've no idea
what their lunches are like.

It's gonna be like a mini prison.

It's a PRU, not youth offenders'.

But a "youth conditional caution"
doesn't sound too good, does it?

I know you haven't been given
the best hand in life,

but as long as you can prove you're
trying to rehabilitate yourself,

you're golden. Do you understand?

CAR ENGINE WHINES AND GRINDS

Watch the clutch!

Well, you making that face isn't
filling me with confidence.

Yeah, well, you negotiating
a roundabout

isn't exactly
filling me with confidence.

Right, I've been reading ahead,

and I've got to practise
an emergency stop.

Oh, yeah,
I wouldn't worry about that.

You do one at every set of lights.

SHE HUFFS

ENGINE STARTS AND REVS

You're doing great! Keep at it.

ENGINE CUTS OUT

HE STIFLES A LAUGH
WITH A COUGH

ENGINE REVS LABORIOUSLY

ENGINE TURNS OVER

Shut up. CLUTCH GRINDS

I never said a word.

TYRES SQUEAL

I know she's my mum, but I do wish
that you were sometimes, cos...

at least you act like one. Aw.

She doesn't even know how
to spell ADHD, you know?

Well, she's probably just trying to
get her head around it, in't she?

Yeah, I shouldn't slag her off.

She has been trying
a lot harder recently.

Yeah, I suppose so.

And you have been a lot
calmer in the last few weeks.

Yeah, I know.
She's been dead good with us.

She's been going
out of her way to help.

How do you mean? Just the pills.

What pills?

Diazepam.

What?
Yeah.

Whoa, hang on a...

Diazepam?
Yeah, giving me that too.

No, Kel.
What?

She can't be giving you medication
like that without a prescription.

She's not a doctor. It's illegal.

Illegal?

Well, she's not gonna get in any
trouble, is she? It's not her fault,

it's mine.
No, it's not.

It IS. No, it's not your fault,
at all. None of it.

OK.

If you've got ADHD, then, yeah,
you might need some medication,

but that isn't your mum's
decision to make.

Right, come here. Come on.
I'll see you later at the meeting.

See ya later.
Yeah.

Wait.

You're not gonna tell anyone,
are ya? Promise me.

SCHOOL BELL RINGS

Go on.

Don't be late.

OK.

See ya.

DOOR SHUTS

God's sake.

Morning, Val.

PHONE ALERT CHIMES
Oh!

Morning.

I just wanted to remind
you about the governors' meeting,

period three.

Of course you don't need reminding.

Thank you.
I've got enough problems with LEA.

I've got to make sure
the parents are onside.

PHONE ALERT CHIMES

Make sure you back me
up on the security issue.

Ah, yeah, yeah.

How does Priestley explore the role
of women in An Inspector Calls?

Oi. Let's wag it after this.

Dean.

If you're gonna wag it,
at least learn to whisper.

Don't I normally get
a detention at this point, Miss?

You can have one if you want one.

DEAN GASPS

Dean.

Make sure that you indicate
clearly

how working-class women
are presented as...disposable.

Dean.

I don't need to wag it.

They're letting me out today.

Well, guess what? What?

I'm getting out, an' all.

Well, why didn't you tell me?

I thought you'd be gutted,
being in here without me.

Yeah, you wish.

Dean, come here.

I'm not a disposable woman.

I do my own thing.

Nice.

Thank you.

I think that we needed to show
the governors how our new approach

to community policing's gonna work,

so can you grab us some
statistics together,

show that it can have
a positive impact?

Is that what this consultant
Andrew told you?

He seems to be in touch quite a lot.

Well, that's none of
your business, Lindon.

I know things went south between us,
but I was hoping that

at some point in the future,
maybe we could move past this.

OK, let me just stop you there.

We are not, absolutely not, ever
going there again. All right.

It should never had happened
in the first place, and I can't have

you questioning everybody I talk to
just because I slept with you once.

SHARP CRACK

Verity.

Verity! Sir, my knickers
are proper riding this morning.

Oh, thank you...

Uh, no running in the corridor,
thank you, Miss.

Sorry, Sir.
I just wanted to give Kelly-Jo this.

Oh.

What is it? Well, I knew

you were feeling a bit anxious
about today, so...

Sprout, Spratt.

I see what you've done.

Lovely.

Where's the tenner? It's just
a good luck message, I'm afraid.

I'm just joking. Erm...

Aw.

Yeah, I'm really proud
of you too, Miss.

Not gonna lie to ya, I didn't really
think much of you the first day,

but you've made A LOT of progress.

VOICE MOCK-BREAKING:
I'm so proud of ya.

Thank you!

No, but seriously, thank you.

You've, erm, really helped me.

Don't look at me.

Good luck, OK?

I've got this, Miss!
Yeah, you have.

I've got this!
Whoa, hey, hey, hey.

People, learning, all right?
Sorry. Yes.

She's right, though.

You know, you've been...

You've been proper sick.

No.

Is that not what yous do now? No.

Sir, can I, erm, just message
Samia to tell her

I'll be in maths with her later?

You can message her,
but I don't think

you're gonna be in class that soon,
I'm afraid. Why?

Well, even if we are talking ADHD,

it doesn't mean that we
forget everything that's gone on

and you just waltz out of the BU.

Yeah, well, it should.
No, where you going? Look,

listen, can we just have some calm,
all right, before we go in there?

Yeah. It's like yoga.

Yes, yes.
Namaste!

Very zen, very zen.
See you in there, Sir.

All right, wash your hands
with your... I will!

Look, you're our union rep.

You've got to get these
parents off our backs.

I hear what you're saying,
but at the end of the day,

we should be developing
more positive relationships

with the parents, right?
Look, Kim knows what she's doing.

DISSENTING MURMURS

They're worried about
the governors' meeting?

You can't blame them.

Parent power is enough
to scare off any teacher.

Last thing we need is parents
thinking they can call the shots.

I mean,
it's Kim that calls the shots.

Oh.

You don't think
she did the right thing by Danny?

Sending a kid to a baby prison
when she didn't have to.

Yeah, but Val, modern PRUs,
they're not...

I know the chat. I had to sell it
to Danny this morning.

How's Dwayne doing?

Yeah.

Great.

Hasn't taken a feather out of him.

I know. Wow.

And we're...moving forward
with the adoption process.

That's really great, Joe.

Hey, listen, I better shoot.
I've got to get down for Kelly-Jo.

Oh. Oh. Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding.
Yeah, round one.

Have a good day.

Yeah.

I'll try.

Overall, we have noted that
you have demonstrated

more than six symptoms of
inattentiveness and impulsiveness.

You're also showing
signs of hyperactivity.

And while this isn't an exact
science, these indicators

do suggest Attention Deficit
Hyperactivity Disorder.

I assume we can start working
towards a EHCP?

That's an Education
Health and Care Plan.

It just means that all
the organisations involved

can work together.

I will make sure that the school
can respond to her needs,

but I have to say that Kelly-Jo
has taken significant steps

in managing her own behaviour.

< You can't just go in there.
There's a meeting going on.

I think I can. It's my meeting.

Mum?

Hiya!

Oh, yeah, this is Miss Rafferty.

This is Kelly-Jo's mum.

I see.

Given the circumstances,
maybe we reconvene?

No, no, I'm here now.

So, go on, then,
what's your verdict?

For the sake of brevity,
your daughter has ADHD.

Oh.

Well, that's good, I suppose.

I might get some help now, then,

cos it took you guys for ever
to figure that one out.

Mum.

What?

OK, now might be a good time
to chat about next stages.

Oh, of course.

I've already
sent off a referral for therapy.

And how long's that waiting list?

Cos by the time that comes about,

she'll have left school,
so what good's that?

Well, it would most likely be CBT,

and that's a talking therapy
with actionable exercises.

We can also explore parent training.

Parent training?

I'm not the one who can't sit still!
What do I need parent training for?

Oh, this system's a mess.

You're the only thing that's a mess.
Listen, will you pipe down?

Sat there chatting.
All this time, sat on their arses.

Meanwhile, I've been
living in a frigging nightmare.

At least they're not
drugging her up.

Can I ask what you meant by your
last comment, Miss Walters?

Nothing.

SHE CLEARS HER THROAT

My sister's been...medicating
Kelly-Jo with Diazepam.

SOMEONE CLEARS THEIR THROAT

OK, er...

Right.

Come on through. Thanks for coming.

It's much appreciated.

Did you catch up with Verity?

She went straight to class.
She won't talk to me.

Mrs Massey, hi. Come on in.

Thanks for coming.

How is Miles?

He's doing well.

No thanks to Dwayne Jackson.

Right, shall we begin?

Right, well, it's always nice
to start with some positives.

I've managed to sort some new
computers for the library.

So, all being well, we'll be able
to install those next week.

Oh, that's brilliant.
That's great news.

So, OK, let's get to the point.

Why have the security measures
been removed from the school?

We had an isolated incident
and took appropriate action,

and the pupil
concerned has been removed.

I felt that the time was right
to lift the security measures.

Well, you're talking about it as
if Danny Lewis was the only problem.

Mr King calls it
"an isolated incident".

I'm not so sure. Neither am I.

I mean, it's true, isn't it,
that when you did bag searches

you found a number of knives?

Yes, but knife crime is
a big problem in ALL schools.

I don't care about all schools.
I care about this one.

Personally, I would
like to see the knife arches,

the uniformed officers, and the bag
searches brought back immediately.

Those things were
brought in to keep our kids safe.

I don't understand why they've gone.

Because they were creating
a hostile environment

that was putting
the pupils off learning.

Just to reassure you,

we do have a plain clothes police
officer on site.

Whenever I make a decision,
I take into account the needs

of every individual pupil, as well
as the wider school community.

From the outside looking in,
it's difficult to understand

the reasoning behind
some of these decisions,

but please, be reassured,
none are taken lightly.

I'm not on the outside
looking in, am I?

My understanding is that we are part
of the leadership of the school.

No, see, all I was saying was
that I think that some coppers

lose their authority
when their uniform's gone.

Yeah, well,
we'll see who's got no authority

when I report you for stealing
someone else's mug, "Mum".

HE CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY

Hey. Hey.

Hey, you're a lot niftier
with that thing

than the four-wheeler
I saw you in this morning.

Yeah, it's gonna take me
ages to pass my test.

I'm hopeless.
No, I was only joking.

You weren't that bad. You know what?

You'll probably pass it first time
and when you do, come see me.

I know a few garages. We'll get you
a motor sorted in no time.

Thanks, Donte. That's great.

Well, there's an incentive
to pass if ever there was one.

Oops!

SHE SNORTS DERISIVELY

SHE TITTERS SARCASTICALLY

All right?

Ah.

Um, do you, um, want to...

..catch up later on? Yeah.

Cool.

You can't be in here.
Just wait till we get home.

Home?

Yeah, we'll see.

Do you know, when you were down,
I put a roof over your head,

no questions asked.

But when I'M down,
you just kick me in the balls.

Where's your loyalty?

I wasn't being disloyal.
Quite the opposite.

Dosing Kelly-Jo up on happy pills,
that is not right, Debs.

What was I supposed to do?
Wait!

Till you got an actual diagnosis.

And by the way,
you're not even on Diazepam,

so where are you getting them
pills from?

It doesn't matter.
I did what I did.

Who do you think you are?

Where were you when Kelly-Jo
was little, eh?

I-I don't have time
to mollycoddle my kid.

I don't "mollycoddle" my children.

I CARE about them,
and I always put them first.

You'd still have Preston in nappies
if you could.

Well, better than being neglectful.

Neglectful?

Are you joking?

I didn't even know where you'd gone.

That's what I call neglectful.

You left me to look after our mum.

Is there any wonder that
I've turned out the way I have?

Just stop making excuses, Deborah.

It's always someone else's fault,
someone else to blame.

Blokes, me, your own daughter...

You can't even hold down a job.

Yeah, says you,
with your five-minute salon!

Covid close you down, did it?

No, crap hair closed you down.

Can we just drop this?

The kids are gonna be
here in a minute.

So, if we make our way down
the stairs,

I'll talk you through
our security measures.

How's Danny doing in PRU?

He started today, didn't he?

How do you think? He practically
skipped out the door this morning.

Val, look, I am really sorry.

If he's having a hard time,
you have got to stop blaming me.

You know he stabbed someone.

I did the right thing.

For Danny or for your reputation?

DISTANT CALLS AND SHOUTS

Hey, Samia, are you lost? Hi.

It's just that people that come
here tend to be...

..preoccupied.

Well, actually,
this is a quiet area for reflection

and quiet contemplation.

I used to say that about
the locker room. Shut up.

Unless...

What?

..unless you're here to
reflect about someone in particular?

Are you back with Danny Lewis?

SHE LAUGHS What makes you think that?

I can read you like a book �
one with a lot of pictures.

So, what are you two doing here?

You need to go.

Doesn't look very professional
you being here.

"Professional"? For Christ's sakes,
you're a dinner lady.

It's like you live in a dream world.

You actually think that you're
better than me and Mum.

That is all in your head.

Do you know...

..you were 13 when you went to live
with Dad.

13.

What made you go?

NICKY SOBS

Because I couldn't bear
living at home any longer.

But it was nothing to do with you,
Debs.

Me and Mum just...

We just didn't get on.

You know that.

She was an alky.

She didn't get on with anyone.

And you left me with her.

I was still in primary school,
and you left me.

And I hate you for it.

Because you ruined my life.

And now you're gonna ruin
Kelly-Jo's life, then, yeah?

Ah!

What are you... Get off me!

Oh! Hey, get off her!

Get off me! Ow!

Get off me! Debs, Debs! Get off her,
get off her.

Mum! Get off her, get off her.

Stop it! Everyone's watching ya!

Right, you lot, serve the food.

Green canteen.

Please, make your way to the green
canteen.

And you, and you, my office, now.

Now!

I needed today to go well.

I needed to show concerned parents
that Waterloo Road is a safe

place for their children,

and instead I get you two knocking
seven bells out of each other.

I couldn't care
less about your meeting.

So what happens to our Kelly-Jo now?

Luckily for you, Dr Park says that
the diagnosis still stands,

so Kelly-Jo can progress with her
EHCP.

Thank you.

I know you must've pushed for that.

DEBS LAUGHS

Great... No harm done.

Excuse me!

Do you know what impact today has
had on Kelly-Jo?

That girl has been confused pretty
much her whole life,

and today she was finally going to
be able to make sense of herself

and of the rest of the world,
and instead, you rock up, late,

stinking of booze,
and then she has to witness her mum

and her auntie going at it in front
of the entire school.

She is a child!

And she had to separate the pair of
you.

No harm done? Really?

Fortunately, she didn't get
seriously ill from taking

unprescribed medication,

but Social Services are gonna be
getting involved.

Do you know that?

And they are gonna be asking you why
you thought giving drugs to

Kelly-Jo was the only solution.

Cos no-one was HELPING ME!

You lot shoved her in the BU
and that was that.

You think she was bad at school?

You should've seen her at home.

Kicking and screaming at everybody.

And where were Social Services then?

As far as I am concerned,
both of you failed Kelly-Jo today.

Are you finished?

You can stay to deal with
Social Services,

then you are banned from my school.

Is that clear?

And you, you're lucky you're not
fired.

You have put me
in an impossible position, Nicky.

Verity, please, I just...

I just wanna make sure you're OK.

I've not told anyone,
if that's all you're bothered about.

No, of course not. Right, then.

Well, I'll ring Mum
and tell her, then, shall I?

I'm sorry.

Mum's still not gonna forgive you,
though.

Not for this.

HE GROANS

Came to see if you're OK. Ah.

You know what?
I'm not gonna lie, it really hurts.

Yeah, you should have put
ice on it straight away.

I know. Let me clean you up.

No, it's all right, you don't have
to. No, let me.

There'll be something in there.

A woman's handbag
is like the TARDIS.

Here you are.

Tip your head back. Yeah? Mm.

Ah!

Come on, now, be brave.

Yeah, I'm trying.

I forgot to tell ya, Izzie got
the best mark in the test last week.

Yeah? Yeah.

Yeah, it's cos she's got the best
teacher, that's why.

Oh, here, you've got a...

Hey, you know what?
It feels all right now.

Yeah, cool, erm...

I'll get rid of this.

Yeah, cheers.

See ya later? See ya.

How's Kelly-Jo doing?

She's OK.

Yeah, just, you know,
a lot to deal with.

I assume you'll be starting
an investigation into her mum?

Oh, that's already begun.

But, actually, I'm glad I caught ya.

I wanted to talk to you
about something else.

It's about the boys?

Yeah, their mum's been in touch.

What for?

She's probably just worried after
what she heard

what happened last week.

You need to give that to the boys.

Eh, the good news, she's been clean
and sober now for some time, so...

Right, erm... Can we have a chat?
Er, right...

You just had to, didn't ya?

She's so amazing.

You're such a great mum.

You're so perfect.

What was I supposed to do?

Just shut up, will yous?

Oh, and just like that,
the social worker arrives.

The teachers click their fingers
and you jump too.

Well, where are you when I need ya?

I'm really sorry, Miss Rafferty,

but we need to have a strategy
meeting about Kelly-Jo's welfare.

I'm gonna have to ask you to leave.
No.

No.

That's my daughter.

Just leave, Mum.

I don't want you here right now.

Mr Casey, can you take
Kelly-Jo back to the BU?

No.

Why?

Look, I promise I'll come
and find you later

and I'll let you know what's
happening.

No, it's not fair again.

Hey, Kelly-Jo, come on.

No, it's not even me.

I know, but come on.
Calm down. I'm sorry.

It's gonna be fine. Come with me.

Come on.

No, we need you to
stay as the responsible adult.

No, not her!
I'm her mother, not her.

Come on. It's gonna be fine.

OK.

No.

No, come here.

She's mine.

Just go home, Mum.

I don't wanna be anything like you
when I grow up.

Just go home.

Well, I know we're all a bit shaken,
but shall we make a start?

Kim, I really respect
you as a person.

You know that.

But I am starting to
question your leadership.

I have to say, I agree.

There's obviously
a bit of a problem at the school

when kids can't even play
football matches safely.

I mean, we're all invested in
the school, but if this is going

to work, you may need to accept
the support of your governing body.

I mean, that's our job.

At this moment in time,
I'm not convinced that we should be

investing in the school,
emotionally or financially.

What are you saying?

I'm saying we'd like to be able to
monitor the school more effectively.

We'd like monthly progress meetings

and the power to conduct
no-notice walkabouts.

I don't think the staff will
go for that level of monitoring.

I don't think that unions
will go for it.

No.

Well, unless you accept the extra
level of support that we're

offering, I would have to withdraw
my support for Miss Campbell's leadership.

As would I.

Then it looks like I don't have
much choice, doesn't it?

I wouldn't mind you
chipping in every lunchtime.

Well, well, well, look who it is.

Hey, I don't think the canteen will
be getting

any five-star reviews
on TripAdvisor.

Yeah, I'd probably give the kids
mayo instead of custard, me.

Hey, how are you doing?
Are you all right?

Not really.

Better than your nose.
What's happened to you?

Well, it's the last time I try
and help you out, put it that way.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Look... Come on, you did the right
thing, you know.

You were just looking
out for Kelly-Jo.

The whole thing's such a mess.

This family's been walking
a tightrope for a long time,

and I've just given everybody
the final shove.

I'm not sure there's any coming
back from this one.

Hey, it's just a bad patch.

That's all it is.

Nah, I'm gonna go home
and find all my stuff on the step,

and I probably deserve it.

I mean, nobody needs to hear they're
a terrible mother, do they?

It's not like I'm perfect.

Nah, you're all right.

Hey, look, you'll get home and she
would've bought you some scran

and a bottle of wine and everything
will be forgotten about.

Don't worry.

Can you excuse me for one second?
Yeah. Thank you.

All right, mate?

Yeah. Have you got a meeting?

Yeah, yeah. I've been meaning to
say,

I'm sorry things didn't work
out between you and Samia.

I thought you were OK, you know,

as far as a lad
dating your daughter can be.

Yeah, well, we're still mates.
Sort of.

Have you seen her today?
I just wanted a word.

Yeah, but not recently.

I'll let her know you're
looking for her. OK.

No worries.

ON-HOLD MUSIC

Hey... Who's that?

Housing.

I've been on hold ages.

I'll try 'em later.

Are we gonna have to move
out of Auntie Deb's?

It's a mess.

Social Services are getting
involved now with Kelly-Jo.

And then if they find out that I'm
gonna be homeless, they'll

think we're a dysfunctional family,
and what happens to you guys?

No, Mum, come here...
Mum, don't get upset.

It's gonna be OK. It's fine.

I'm sorry.

I mean, what sane person would wanna
take our Tonya into care, right?

Horrible.

Here, I ruined your lunchtime,
so at least have a decent tea.

Nah, keep it.

We're gonna need all the money
we can get.

It should be me looking after you,
not the other away round.

Well, it's my turn now.

See, now, if that was me,

I'd be at home right now
filling out a compo form.

Yeah, I would do, mate,

but I'm too embarrassed to put down
that I've been hit by a dinner lady.

Lunchtime Organiser.
Oh, yeah, that's right.

Oh, man, Chlo would be laughing her
head off right now.

How are you getting on?

Oh, I'm just getting on, mate.

You know how it is
living by yourself.

Yes, I do.

It's lonely, isn't it?

Yeah.

Just gotta keep busy, haven't ya?
Mm.

And are ya?

Yeah, yeah, I am trying.

You know, the kids help,
but they're at a sleepover tonight.

So, yeah, without them, I just
feel like I've got nothing to do.

Mm.

It's weird how everything just
always revolved around her. Mm.

Yeah, you just take your time,
mate, you know?

And don't go on any dating
apps like I did.

Did ya? Urgh, yeah.

I signed up for a website. Minger.

Don't you mean Tinder?

No.

No, I mean Minger.

Mate, you can't say stuff like that.

Yes, I can.

You weren't there.

DONTE LAUGHS

Well, it'll be
ages before I do any of that.

I'm saying that, though, I was
thinking about inviting someone round.

Nothing like that, you know,
just a bit of company.

But, yeah, I'm glad that I didn't.

You know, we work together.

I just think it would've been
awkward, you know? Mm.

We could always go for a pint after
school if you fancied it?

Or we could invite other
people as well.

Yeah. Yeah, you know what?
I'll take you up on that sometime.

But no, tonight,
I've got a free night,

so I'm just gonna tidy the house.

The joy of being a single dad, eh?

I'll see ya later. See ya.

Kel?

Oh, my God. Just hear me out,
please.

I've just spend the last hour
apologising to Miss Campbell

and your mum and Preston.

Mm-hm.

But I owe you the biggest one.

You asked me not to say anything
about your mum medicating ya,

and I should've listened.

Well, yeah, but you didn't.

So...

I don't know what you want me
to say.

That it's OK. That it doesn't
matter.

Look, she rocked up to your meeting,
late, stinking of booze and fags.

Don't knock my mum like that.
Hang on.

Get off me, now! Stop that!

She then had the cheek to sit there
and slag you off.

You!

I just feel like you could do better
sometimes, that's all.

What, like you?
Little Miss Perfect and all that?

Come on, don't do that.

Don't do what? That's my mum!

And I know that she's not great or
anything like that,

but you keep putting her against me
for no reason.

That is not what I'm doing.
You just grassed her up!

She didn't nick you a bag of crisps,
Kelly-Jo.

She was drugging you.

No, she wasn't.
She was drugging you...

What am I supposed to do with that?

Well, maybe...

..maybe you could've helped out a
bit more.

That's not fair. Well, yeah,
cos she couldn't cope with me.

And then you're there,
swanning off, doing your own thing.

NICKY SCOFFS

Right, just leave me alone.

Wow.

All right, let's not start
a riot on our way to class.

What?

Nothing.

Just, you know,
nice to have you around...

even if you're not in uniform.

Right, come on.

Let's not start
a riot on our way to class.

Oh, look, they listen to me.

That's strange, isn't it?

KNOCK AT DOOR

I finally caught up with Verity.

How is she?

She's angry and upset,
but she has every right to be.

I am so sorry, Lindon.

It's OK.

It's on me now,
but I will have to tell Hannah.

I don't want Verity to have to keep
a secret like this.

No, all that matters is that you
get things sorted,

and I'm sure you will.

Thanks.

Oh, and...

..about earlier...

I should've backed you up
with the governors.

I should've been more professional.

I know.

And I've got the LEA to deal with,
the union,

and now the parent
governors on top of everything else.

And I think it's...

..probably for the best that we just
keep everything business now, OK?

Absolutely.

New start.

Oh, God.

Oh, God, no!

What are you gawping at?

You should be looking for real
criminals.

There's only women
and children in here.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Mum? Mum!

Oh, you happy now?

I never meant for any of this.

What are you doing?
Why are you here?

Looking for drugs, thanks to you.

Grassing on your own flesh
and blood.

Got what you wanted?

Sir!

Er, eh, they're my angina pills.

Oh, my God.

If something happens to me tonight
you've got blood on your hands, I tell ya.

Do you know the whereabouts of Miss
Rafferty?

This is on you.

NICKY SOBS

So, did you miss me?

Maybe.

Oh, come off it, I know you did.
Nah, I didn't.

Well, I've missed you.

All right,
maybe I missed you a little bit.

THEY LAUGH

Sami?

Oh, this better not be Danny.

I'm not one of those dads.

You know the type, the ones that
think they can control their daughters.

But I'm looking at you, and I'm
wondering what is she choosing?

Mr Choudhry, I... She can have her
pick. You know that.

She's smart. She's funny. She's
kind.

And yet, there's you, a lad who
brings a knife to school

and uses it.

I don't get it.

She obviously likes you.

But if you are a decent man,

you will end this
relationship for her sake.

Dad...

Just stop it.

Let's be honest, it's
none of your business what I do.

We'll see about that. Come on.

Sh, sh, sh, sh, sh, listen,
can you hear that?

What?

That's my clutch saying,
"Not again, Amy."

Oh, yeah, yeah. Very funny.

Oh, by the way, I think
you should just go for it.

Look, I am trying to,
but you won't let me drive.

Yeah, I'm not talking about the car.

What are you talking about, then?

Donte.

This again?

Look, right, I don't like him, OK,
so just let it go.

Yeah, stop... I think he likes you
back.

Why do you say that? I'm intuitive.

Sensitive, if you like.

You know?

I have an instinct when it comes to
matters of the heart.

Oh, yeah.

And he told me...pretty much.

Really? He said he likes me? Mm.

And he made a point of telling me
he's all on his own tonight.

What? Hang on.

You think he wants me
to go round there?

Dean.

Kelly-Jo!

Kelly-Jo Rafferty!

What's that?

You think she should forgive her
mother because she loves her?

Yeah, well, you're embarrassing.

So can you just move?

Oh, come on, Dean.

You used to love this
when you were a kid.

I keep it my bag all the time.

I have done for years,
cos it reminds me of you.

And when I'm rummaging in my bag,
and I come across him,

he just makes me smile.

Mum, I'm trying to text.

Look, I'm sorry for making
a show of ya.

Oi...no excuses.

It was my fault. I'm sorry.

End of.

Nicky was really winding me up.

I know she was.

Eh...do you want a chippy tea?

THEY LAUGH

Good, good, good, good, but watch...

OK.

Wait, watch this one.

Ah, right, well, you laugh,
but underestimate me at your peril.

Look, see? Whoa!
Come and get it, then.

Come on, then.

Whoa! Whoa!

You'd better teach your son
some of those skills...

Yeah, my ball.

Come on.

Miss Rafferty?

Look, Miss Rafferty, I'm really
sorry, but you can't be on site.

All right, we're going.

All right, Ronaldo.
Show us what you've got.

All right. Let's go.

Right.

Whoop! All right, listen, �5 if
you get one past me. MOBILE PHONE RINGS

Come on. Let's go.

You can have whatever you want,

as long as you don't mix the curry
and the gravy.

MIKE: I told you not to pull up
outside. I'm going to, cos that's what I do.

Are you gonna get mushy peas?
I'm gonna get loads of mushy peas.

Just don't worry about that.

We just wanna give you
and Kelly-Jo a lift home, OK?

It's OK, we can walk.

Everything OK, Miss Rafferty?

Have you got that teddy? No.

I've not got it.

You must've dropped it.

Just leave it.

No, I don't need a bodyguard.

Deborah...

Deborah, look, just go home.

Yeah, why do you want me to do that?

Just so you can arrest me
in front of my kid again?

No. Let's not discuss it here, OK?

OK, look, just don't make a scene.

Miss Rafferty, don't cause a scene.

Miss Rafferty, don't cause a scene,
yeah?

Mum!

Hey, hey!

OVERLAPPING SHOUTS

Get off! Stop!

Hey, I know, I know, but you need to
calm down and come with me, all right?

We'll go inside and then
we can talk about it.

Breathe, Kelly-Jo.

KNOCK AT DOOR

Hey. Oh, hi.

What, you passed your test already?
That was quick.

Oh, God, definitely not, no.

I just thought we'd get cracking.

What, you wanna buy a car now?

Well, Neil said if you've got a goal
in mind, you should just go for it.

You do know it's not a date,
don't you?

You wish.

I've emailed you some stuff
on our policy on police training...

How's it all going? Mm, yeah, great.

Police initiative, great.

It's just the scrapping
dinner ladies

and the difficult conversations with
staff that I don't like.

I'm sure you've got it all
under control.

You wouldn't be saying that
if you saw me today.

Well, my day consisted of talking
down a teacher after a pupil

tampered with their dating profile.

No way.

To be fair,
the kid knew what they were doing.

Significant reduction in swipe
lefts, apparently.

Do you ever wish that you
hadn't got into this?

Only every day.

I can't seem to please everyone.

You know, if it's not the pupils
that are thinking that I'm making

the wrong choices, then it's the
staff, or it's the governors, and

to be honest, half the time, I don't
even know if I'm getting it right.

Who does?
You seem to be doing a great job.

Really? Today,
one of the pupils overheard me

talking about sleeping
with their dad.

You didn't sleep with a parent?

No. Uh...

I mean, yes,
but he's also my deputy, so...

SARCASTICALLY: Oh, that's much
better.

Don't pretend you haven't done it.

Only with you.

Do you like the look of this one?

Yeah. Yeah?

Yeah, it's very me.

I can see you in something
like that.

It matches your hair and everything.

It does.

Right, OK,
we can have a look at that.

I know working in a school can drive
anyone to the booze,

but this is impressive,
even by my standards.

Oh, no, it's nothing like that.

Well, I was building a bar for Chlo.

Of course.

Hey, look, I've got loads of things
that I need to crack on with,

you know? I've gotta put the optics
in and everything. I can help with that.

You do a bit of DIY yourself, do ya?
Yeah.

No, no, I don't.

But I can help you empty
these bottles.

Shall we start with this one?

Come on, come on.

DONTE WINCES

Shall I make a toast?

To life beyond school.

Hmm?

Whoa.

Are you all right?

Yeah, super-cool Amy.

Eh...

DOOR OPENS Danny?

How was it?

I hated it.

I just wanna go back to
Waterloo Road.

You don't have a choice
about that right now.

Everyone labels me as a criminal.

When they see me in this uniform,
they instantly start judging me.

That's to say they weren't judging
me already.

Listen to me.

I will fight your corner,
but you made a choice, Danny,

and this is where that
choice has led you.

So, for now, you're just gonna
have to suck it up.

I did.
I totally smashed her face in.

THEY LAUGH, MUSIC PLAYS

You did not. You weren't that sort
of girl.

No, I was.

I was cock of the school.

Everyone was scared of me.

MUSIC: Flowers

Oh, my God, I love this song.

Now we're talking. What a tune.

Yeah, oh, what was the...
Oh, God, what was the thing?

That thing? What thing? What is that
thing?

You know, the thing? What is that
what you're doing there?

No, the thing with the arm
and the head thing.

That is not a thing. Are you OK?

I don't know whether I'm OK.

You know what I'm talking about.

No, I have no idea what you're
talking about.

You do, you do.

Show me.

No, no, I can't dance.
I can't, I can't, I can't.

I can't dance. You can, you can, you
can.

OK, I can dance. Are you ready?

Yeah. Yeah!

Yes!

Where are you going?
Where are you pulling to?

Where am I going?

You have to teach me now.

OK, are you ready?

All right, it's cool.

This is serious. Wait, wait, serious
face now.

OK, sorry. After three.

One, two, three.

Oi! Whey! And back again, back
again. Whey!

You know me, I've always been mates
with the people that I've

worked with,
and I find it really hard that

I can't have discussions with
people, like with Val.

You know, I really respect her,
and I want her to understand

the reasons behind some
of the choices that I've made.

But you can't. No. I know.

I know, and...I've just started to
worry that all the staff hate me.

They don't hate you, they just don't
understand what you have to do.

You can't be everyone's friend,

and you can't get into the business
of explaining every single

decision you make,
that just weakens you as a leader.

I know, I know.

It's really hard when you haven't
got someone to off-load to.

There's your deputy... Oh.

I feel so lonely.

Especially since...

I heard about Dexter.

I'm so sorry, Kim.

When it first happened,
I just threw myself into work.

That's how I ended up working
towards a deputyship,

and then suddenly I was
going for a headship without really

thinking about
whether I wanted it or not.

And then...

..none of it, none of it can...

..fill that...Dexter-shaped hole.

How could it?

You're a fantastic teacher, Kim.
Sorry.

And a brilliant head,
as far as I can see.

And those kids are lucky to have
you fighting for them.

I know it's easy to feel isolated,

but I'm here any time you
want to talk.

As a friend.

Hmm. Thank you.

Don't worry, I will sort this.

You know, this is all your fault.

No, that's a foot, Donte!

No, ahh!

Oh, sorry.

No, how is it all my fault?

Cos you're the one who
said you could do

the Running Man on top of the table.

I thought I could.

Looks like we've both
been in the wars today.

Well, I am just happy to
return the favour.

Oh, well, you may rise, sir.

Yeah, Dr Donte says you are A-OK.

KNOCK AT DOOR

Hey.

Erm, look, I'd invite you in,

but I'm just in the middle of
something right now.

I wondered, erm...

God, I can't even
believe I'm here, to be honest.

I didn't know who else to go
to, which, on reflection, sounds

really sad, but I think that's
just my life right now, isn't it?

Oh, you are busy.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry. Wait, a minute,
it's not what it looks like.

No, it doesn't matter if it is.

It's nothing to do with me, is it?

Can we just pretend this never
happened, please?

Nicky?

Amy?

Yeah.

Might not, but she'll lose her job.

How much do you need to

About two grand.
