Original subtitles

Oi!

Doing things like this tonight, then?

Er, yeah, yeah, it's rolling on. What sort of car have you got booked, then?

Well, you'll have to wait and see, won't you? It better not be some stupid cab.

Actually, no, it's not.

See you later.

Yeah.

Hope,

what's going on there between you and Sam? Nothing.

Does she still fancy you?

Doesn't look like it, does it?

Do you fancy her now, or...? Stop talking crap, man.

Chill out, it's just a question.

That went well, didn't it?

I mean, if Baldwin is jealous of him, he's not doing anything about it.

Well, it's his loss, and at least he got Paul.

Yeah, I suppose so.

He's all right, really, and I bet he does have a limit of something.

That's a tonne.

I've got some news.

We're moving to Los Angeles.

What? We're moving to Los Angeles.

Me as well?

Yeah, you as well.

When were you planning on telling me this?

Finn. No.

I can't believe you're doing this to me. Grow up. You sound like a five -year

-old. I don't want to move.

When you're chief earner in this family, you can decide where we go.

If it was the other way around, I could understand it. But really, most kids are

jump at the chance.

Then not with you? The family meeting or something?

Still, today we're actually allowed back into the class.

She's stuck with me till we get to school then.

So? What?

The same way we talk like this is. I should sing with her.

This feels a bit odd.

Why? It feels like just any other day.

Yeah, well.

Good, isn't it?

It's exactly what we wanted.

We're not even supposed to see you today, and here we are pitching up for

another bout with Rochdale's finest.

I don't flee. I never had you down traditionally.

Still, just think, tomorrow morning we'll be waking up in our room in our

as husband and wife.

I didn't book the hotel.

Why not?

Well, we've got to be at the airport by six. I just don't think we needed it. I

don't think it was worth it.

It's our wedding night.

I'm sorry.

We've already ditched the reception, even stopped having any guests. I mean,

we downsize any more, it'll hardly be worth it.

Come on, don't be like that.

I've got to dash. I'll see you later.

We're moving to America.

What about us?

So what, you're just going to let this happen?

You're just going to let us be pulled apart like this?

I don't believe this. I don't believe this.

I would do anything for you.

What are you doing here?

Well, brought Dex in to show around. It's just what people do. Yeah, of

How is he?

Yeah, he's brilliant.

He's eating and sleeping and growing.

How are you? I'm good, yeah. You know, busy.

But I think... We might need to talk.

What's that to say?

You've explained your reasons and I understand them.

These things happen.

It's fine.

It's fine.

I'm fine.

I'm sorry. I've really got to get on. I'll see you later, yeah?

Come on in, everyone.

I said you're late.

Oi! I don't care if it is your last day at this school.

You'll still show some basic respect to your teachers, do you hear me?

Oh, yeah, that's right.

Unfortunately, we're going to have to struggle on without Mr Sharkey next

Sadly, he's moving to America.

Where is it again?

LA, is it?

They've got to be some way he can stay.

Look, it's a family matter, you know. They've informed us they're moving

There's nothing that we can do about that.

That's it? I don't understand that thing.

Going is going to be difficult for you, Amy, but from my perspective, there are

some positives.

You lot were always down on him. You two haven't been good for each other. The

closer you got, the more your behaviour deteriorated. That's crap. This latching

on to people is not healthy. You know, it just gets you into trouble.

You don't know what you're talking about.

Don't I?

You're a joke.

The lot of you.

You're supposed to care and you bang on about how much you do, but it's all me,

me, me with you lot.

Amy...

Mason was useless.

It's bad enough her not came in.

Or your parents.

That's what I expect, but... What I don't get is why you're not bothered.

Because I know that running to Mason and kicking off and all that's just not

going to work.

But if you love me, at least you'd try.

Being kept apart from you for a week was bad enough.

I can't live without you.

So? So.

I'm not.

What?

If I can't be with you, then I don't want any part of this.

What? You know what? We've talked about it.

Remember by the canal?

You mean killing yourself?

You can't be serious.

Finn? What should I do?

Let them walk all over me?

Tell me I'm nothing?

You can.

Watch me.

Finn, what about me? Don't I matter?

I'm doing this because of you.

Short everything to you.

Can't bear to live without you.

What am I supposed to do?

I'd be left here without you.

If I don't do this, I'll be left without you.

But I'll be in a hole thousands of miles away.

I can't do it.

That's it then.

Then take me with you.

Sure.

Yes.

I'm sure.

You are amazing.

Too good for this world, Amy.

There's a foot of raw sewage all through the ground floor of the hotel. The

foyer, the ballroom, the kitchens.

Well, we'll have to postpone it then. We can't.

The kids have bought their outfits, they've rented limos.

Why don't we do it here?

No, we can't.

Yes, we can.

It's the sixth form of last day. We'll be letting them down.

Just let me talk to Rachel.

No way.

Officially, she's not in today, so everything goes through me.

But it's easier and fairer for everyone if we just postpone it.

I'll do it. There's too much to organise.

Just give me the okay and I swear to you I'll get it done.

Okay, then.

As of now, you've got nine hours.

Hey, you.

Hello.

Oh, it's good to have you back.

How are you feeling?

Humiliated.

Rachel has been so generous, considering. But anyway, you know, I'm

front line next term with a medical pending.

Great. Two birds with one stone. Right, listen, the prom's on the move. We're

having it in the hall now. I'll explain why later, but I've kind of volunteered

to take it on, so I need your help. Steph, are you insane? If we all pull

together, we can transform that dingy hall into a grotto of Hollywood magic.

Er, not on our own, we can't.

We've got eight and a half hours.

Where's your real answer paper?

Yeah, much more real than that, sir.

Are you telling me that you have spent the last hour doing that?

Hey, don't forget mine.

Chris.

You little toe -wrack.

Say that again.

Throw up hair, you old man.

Okay, cooler. Now.

Get your bags and go. Your parents are going to hear about this. It's not all

they're going to hear about, is it?

Get out!

Are you sure?

Yeah.

Hey.

It's not like I'm going to be needing any of it.

It feels weird, doesn't it?

Yeah, but I think it could win.

Wait for it.

There's something I've got to do. What?

It's nothing. It won't take effect. What are you doing? Trust me.

Right, don't tell anyone.

Room for a little wine.

Oh, he is absolutely gorgeous.

He's just like you and me.

Right little bruiser. Do not give a damn.

I mean, if all the kids start behaving like that, we might as well just pack up

and go home.

What's up?

Oh, Finn Starkey and Amy Potter being cheeky.

Cheeky? You call this cheeky? These are their exam papers.

Blatant, two fingers up defiance, more like. What I say means nothing.

Detention means nothing.

All right, so putting them back in the same cloth was a mistake, wasn't it?

Where are they? At a cooler.

But after what Sharky did to this place, it's probably in ruins by now.

They're not there, mate.

I've just been on duty. There's no sign of them.

Blissfully quiet morning all around.

See? That's what I'm talking about. Barefaced insubordination. Calm down.

Crowley, I'll go and find them.

What are you doing?

You're at your show.

Don't let anyone ever tell you otherwise, yeah?

You've been the best friend I've ever had.

And I'm sorry, okay?

What is up with you? Why are you being like this? Just goodbye.

Where are you going?

I love you. Amy, wait!

Oh, I really thought you got through to me last night.

Yeah, well, that's a deal for you.

Digs his heels in and doesn't let go.

It's all true, then. We are on the promenade. You've got to be kidding me.

Oh, stop moaning, will you? We're going to make it fantastic.

Are you trying to kid?

Look, just wait and see, OK? I want you to go backstage with Miss Campbell.

Whatever she gives you, bring her up. We'll have a look at it. Go on.

Well, thank you.

What is he doing?

He's the only person we know who could help us pull this thing off. I just

thought you might want to see it. I really thought wrong.

Oh, Ollie, you are a lifesaver. I'm glad to help.

Steph?

Oliver?

Right, what do you want?

Everything you've got.

I can't believe she's drafted you into doing this as well.

Well, I don't mind.

You know, Dex isn't happy enough in the crutch.

Oh, great.

She just wrote me dad in.

Brilliant. Look, he's in his element. They both are.

So what's going on with Amy and Phil?

Well, I was hoping I'd find him in here.

Look, I think I'm all right to leave. Do you want me to come and give you out?

Um... Come on, I'm here.

Yeah, come on.

Chris has filled me in.

That's their mobile numbers.

I've sent for someone to get Siobhan as well. Thank you.

So, it's been Sharky's little wedding, isn't it?

Chris, I believe that you, um... You had words with Finn this morning.

Yeah.

Finn, it's Miss Mason. Please contact the school the minute you get this

message. It's very urgent.

OK, let's try Amy, shall we?

Do we even know if they've left the premises?

Well, nobody saw them leave, but they're not here.

God, it's frightening the effect that lad's had on her. Which is why she's not

going to answer now, isn't it?

Amy? Amy, where are you?

It's Carla, miss.

I found it ringing in the bin.

There's a lot of other stuff in here.

There's a textbook, a jotter and another phone.

Why would anyone throw that away?

The book, the schoolwork, I understand all that, but...

There's the phone there.

You know, most kids would rather die than get rid of the phone.

Chris, just come and have a look at this.

Come on.

I mean, what is that about?

You know what, the moment you said yes, I

pictured us being there together all along.

That's good enough to make it.

Well, in that case, Amy Porter.

There's nowhere else on the earth I'd rather be having right now.

Ladies first.

She was just weird.

This morning, it was like she was trying to be me.

Did she seem happy?

Yeah.

Why are we going on holiday?

What? It's different, isn't it?

Did you look better?

I just didn't buy it.

Nine times out of ten she blanks me.

The one day a boyfriend's not that.

No, you're right.

It's like everything out there is irrelevant now.

So did you argue?

No, it was just not like it used to be.

An idiot at school or out there working.

The only thing that matters now is you and me.

And then she turns up like it's an emergency and she's hugging me and

I was her best mate. And she says goodbye.

Everyone out there is just going to carry on as normal, but us two, we're

And was Finn with her?

No. We changed.

It was weird, like... She was happy, but crying.

Chipon, have either of them ever mentioned Mosley Beach to you?

No.

Is that why they've gone?

We don't know that.

Um, thank you.

You're a really great help.

Right. I think we should contact the police.

Why? For two kids scouting?

No, because it doesn't feel right, Chris.

You know, Finn's behaviour, Amy saying goodbye like that. It's just Finn. It's

just another bit of attention seeking from him. Have you ever asked yourself

he behaves like that? Why he's so keen on having conflict with everyone he

into contact with?

I know that you two have got history.

I think at some point you have to rise above the provocation, Chris.

You're right.

Yeah. You're right.

Leave it, Sam.

It's never going to happen.

Just forget him.

And let's just have a top night tonight, yeah?

They're right here.

You'll see.

Well, where did you find it?

I came here when I was a kid.

It's just perfect.

It's so beautiful.

So, Adam, we need to arrive at the town hall no later than half four, and then I

will arrive with the bride at five, okay?

Okay? Yes, yes.

Come on, Chris didn't seem to think it was particularly serious.

Oh, I know that. Chris would think that.

It's okay, it's fine. They can handle it. That's what they're there for.

No, I know, Adam. It's just that I'm the head.

Do you think I don't know that?

When I asked you to marry me, I knew I'd be sharing you with this place.

I didn't realise it'd be such a struggle to get your undivided attention for

what is now our severely constricted wedding day. How is this helping, Adam?

There I go again, making unreasonable demands on you. Obviously, an hour of

undivided attention is just too much to ask. Look, you're right, OK?

I won't mention it again. Why don't we just make this even easier for you? Why

don't you just forget the whole thing? It's clearly just a chore for you,

distracting you from your also precious work. Adam! Can we talk about it,

please?

Adam!

I'm going to go and get ready. I'll see you there.

That's not a problem.

It's just tradition, isn't it?

What I don't get about you is that this feels so good.

Being with you, being here.

Why do we have to lose this?

Hey, do you think I want this to end?

No.

I've never felt a love like yours.

It's okay.

I know.

I'm never going to let you go.

Never.

He's a determined kid. He's fearless as well. And yet, this morning when I had a

go at him, it wasn't a flicker.

I just wish that I knew what he was up to.

You do know, though,

Whatever happens, this isn't your fault, don't you?

Isn't it?

The more I think about it, the more I think it is.

Well, then you've got to do something about that.

For your sake, as much as anyone else's.

You're right.

Finn would have been born in 93, yeah?

Yeah, I think that's right. So he'll, and it's where he's written his name,

must be his birthday.

That's a great thing.

And this in red ink is today's date.

What is that?

Certainly what he wants us to think.

Who are the guys now?

You know, he's probably just trying to scare us.

What about Rachel?

No.

I'll handle it.

That's great, isn't it?

Nice one. All right.

Cheers. Bye -bye now. Bye -bye.

Smart. What?

Well, I reckon I'm in for now. It was Sambuca, you know.

Gary McFarlane has booked a car from the same place as where I booked mine. And

Tanya Bristol was so impressed that she told him he could do anything he wants.

And the limo that I booked is well better.

Yeah, but that's Tanya Bristol.

Exactly. So Sambuca is going to be even more impressed.

She's going to be all over me. Shut up, man!

What's up with you? Don't talk about her like that.

And what do you care? I just do, OK?

What?

About Sambuca? Yeah, and if you've got anything else to say.

Right, mate.

Just chill, yeah?

Ooh, the cup.

Oh,

people, can you...

I haven't heard from Adam yet, have you?

No.

You know what, Phil? I'm not sure he's going to show up. Of course he will.

Do you think he's still angry with me?

No.

But, hey, who am I bringing to the wedding?

My gay ex -girlfriend.

So I'm not entirely sure I'm the right person to be getting relationship advice

from.

I haven't heard anything from the school either about Amy and Phil. I haven't

heard anything.

So? Mr Mead's got it covered. Yes, but it should be me.

Why? He's your deputy. What can you do that he can't? I know that. I do know

that. I'm trying not to think about it, but it's very hard, Phil.

No, it's not.

You've got every other day of your working life to be worried about this

stuff, but today you've just got to trust your colleagues, accept that

not a superwoman and just concentrate on getting married.

Yeah?

So you agree with Adam, then? You think I let my work rule my life?

No.

Well, it is your job, after all, isn't it? And you've got to...

Why are you asking me?

My only job is to get you to the town hall on time.

I just wish you'd ring me and let me know. OK, here we go. Roll reversal.

Confiscating that.

Philip! We'll get it back at the end of the day.

Adam, shouldn't you be at the town hall?

Yeah, but it's not my main priority.

Getting these spoons into this bowl is... Just like Rachel's more concerned

about two truanting kids.

Um...

Yeah,

well, that's Rachel.

Well, surely you must know that.

Compassionate.

Dedicated.

Obviously horrendous qualities in a new bride.

Today's supposed to be the best day of our lives. I'm dead excited. She can't

even be arsed booking the hotel.

For goodness sake.

Look in the fridge.

Go on.

Look in the fridge.

Rachel made that.

Yeah, found her in the kitchen last night.

Apparently that is attempt number nine.

And, well, I'm embarrassed to say she's been trying to get it right ever since

yours got trashed. I mean, I asked, did she want me to help? But, no, she was

determined to do it all by herself.

You've got to trust me, Amy.

I'm going to make sure it's okay.

But what if I get scared, like, at the last minute?

I'll be really gentle.

It's like going to sleep.

You seem so calm about all this.

Because whenever I've been really low, really scared,

thinking about doing this always makes me feel better.

Okay, then.

What?

Let's do it.

Let's do what we came here to do. Nothing else matters now.

Let's do it. No!

What, you're backing out on me?

No, I just need five more minutes.

Why? What's the point? We're here, aren't we? We're ready.

I'm not ready.

I'm not ready to lose you.

You won't, don't you understand? This will bind us together.

Everyone we ever knew will talk about us together, doesn't it?

No, I don't care about it.

I'm only doing this because of you, because I can't face living without you.

I know.

Well, now it feels like I lose you either way.

I know.

That's why I want five more minutes.

Phil, are you ready?

Yeah.

Have a look.

You look beautiful.

Thank you.

Adam's a real lucky guy.

If he turns up, yeah.

Yeah, he will.

He's already there.

You're lying.

No, I'm not.

Phil, I know you. You're lying.

Okay, well, he's virtually there.

Honestly, you can give Ros a ring if you don't believe me.

Maybe I could come to L .A. with you.

So you lied to me, then?

Okay, you lied to me. Oh, Finn!

Stop! Don't leave me! I thought you were someone who never let me down. It seems

I'm wrong.

Don't say that. Don't you dare!

I would go to the ends of the earth for you.

If you're going to do this, I will too, but don't start accusing me of things.

I'm sorry.

I can't go back there, Amy.

I can't.

This is perfect.

Do you want five more minutes to get to us?

Amy, are you okay?

Who did you tell?

No one up there.

So he just turns up and finds us out of the blue? We found your notebook, Finn.

Did he?

Do you know what? I'm glad you're here because you are powerless, mate.

You can do nothing.

Yeah, you should go, Finn.

I'm not going anywhere.

It's okay. You can be a witness. Tell everyone what we did.

Come on, you don't want to do this, either of you. Is that what you think,

it? See what they do, Amy? They tell us what we want so they can control us.

They know nothing.

So control's bad, is it, Finn? Well, in that case, let Amy go. Let her do what

she wants.

See?

Amy's here because she wants to be.

Do we want the same thing? We love each other.

What would you know about us?

I know that asking someone to hurt themselves or worse has got nothing to

with love.

Listen to him, come on. Please, God, you're just making things worse.

Amy, do you know what it'll be like out there?

Choking on freezing cold water, panicking and fighting for breath.

And what if your chicken's out on you? Amy, whatever he's told you, this isn't

the answer. It's not some great statement.

It's just stupid and it's wrong and it's a total waste.

I can't do it.

Kate, of course he's going to come. We just need a few seconds. This is his

wedding.

I can't actually believe this is happening.

OK, I think that we need to go. I'm awfully sorry. I don't actually think

going to turn up. Shall we call it a day?

Sorry.

I, uh... Told you.

Look at you.

Is everything okay?

It is now.

Are you okay?

You ready?

Yeah.

Your parents have been informed.

They're upset.

Not as upset as they're going to be.

That's why you're here, innit? I've seen the photos. You used to come here when

you was a kid.

Used to?

That's a joke.

We came here once.

All them pictures are from the same holiday when I was seven.

That's the first time we all went away together.

First and last.

I pretty much became invisible to them after then. A burden.

That's horrible, feeling like that.

Yeah, good preparation for life, innit?

I've found that people tend to lose interest pretty quickly.

Parents.

Teachers.

Girlfriends. You know what? I used to think you were a right little sod. And

then I met your dad.

Can't be easy for you, that.

What? I don't know the fellow, but I have to say, I wouldn't want him as my

Stop pretending you care. You hate me. You pushed me to the limit. You do the

same to everyone.

No one can ever do enough for you. Everyone disappoints you.

And that's my fault, is it?

You tell me.

Your teachers, your mates, even Amy.

Nothing she did was enough.

She ditched all her mates.

She got into all sorts of trouble, but it's still not enough for you, is it?

So you bring her here.

She said she loved me. She does.

And look what you've given her in return.

Come on.

Don't you reckon this has gone far enough?

This is over.

It's all right.

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's all right.

It's okay.

It's all right.

I

do

solemnly declare that I know not of any lawful impediment why I, Adam Benjamin

Fleet, may not be joined in matrimony to Rachel Mason.

I call upon these persons here present... I call upon these persons

to witness that I do take thee... Rachel Mason, do you take Adam Benjamin Fleet

to be your lawful wedded husband?

Yes.

I do.

I give you this ring.

As a token of our marriage.

And the sharing of our lives together.

I now pronounce you husband...

And wife.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

I've let him down, haven't I?

Betrayed him. No, you haven't, Amy.

But things will change. I know at times like this, it's hard to believe that.

You've just got to.

The police can take you home. I'll go with Finn.

He needs to be with someone he knows right now, even if it is me.

Come on.

You must be worn out.

So go home and get ready. I don't need to. My stuff's in the car.

Well, go and put it on, then. Take a breather. Oliver, we're not ready.

We're nowhere near.

Steph, please.

I've got this, all right?

Right, lads, we've got a lot to do.

Right, pictures!

Oh, not pictures!

Smile now.

Smiley.

Did I really marry you? I think

so, yeah.

I know I don't.

There you are.

Happy now?

Dragging me up from London?

Mr Media halfway across Lancashire? That wasn't a problem. What were you

thinking? Eh?

Oh, you weren't, were you?

You never do.

One day, my boy...

You are going to have to grow up and start to consider those people around

Mr Sharkey, Finn's had a very difficult day. Good.

Maybe he'll have learnt something.

Maybe he'll have learnt a bit of respect.

Hey!

Did you listen to anything that I said to you on the phone?

Do you think he really needs this right now? You've not even asked him if he's

okay.

But you said he was.

He's your son.

Start acting like he's dad.

Finn, are you going to be okay here?

I can take you somewhere else.

No, I'll be fine.

Okay.

I'll see you then.

Hello?

Elliot! Ow!

Typical. Say they're all ready and then they sod off.

Not bad at all.

Thank

you.

Son?

What are you doing here?

Where's Paul?

He's at the school.

Swap with me. What do you mean swap?

You can't do that. I'm just not from town. You can just pass around between

mates.

If you want to go with Paul, I can tell him.

You can swap outside so you can drive up to them. What are you doing with the

swapping? It's not like that. He did it because he's a mate.

Why? Because I told him that I wanted to go with you.

I was stupid and a coward.

But he knew that I wanted to go with you.

And do you?

Yeah.

Come on.

I thought you were ashamed of me.

I was dumb.

But I'm here now.

And I want to do this with you.

Like I said, if you want to go with Paul... I want to shut up.

In the car.

Wow.

Quick, let's have a picture. Go on. Okay.

I'm here with my girl, man.

Everybody's looking.

Yeah, because you look amazing.

Do you want to sing that?

Yeah.

Well done, did I?

I wouldn't have gone if it hadn't been for you.

Yeah, but you were the one that went. You sorted it out.

It should be proud.

I was out of order this morning.

You know, first thing.

Don't worry about it.

I lied, you know.

Nothing's fine about what's happened to us.

I don't know what I'm going to do without you.

Sorry.

Are you arguing as well?

Yep.

There's only so much watching other people snogging a single girl can take.

Yeah. Isn't that... Yeah.

Thanks.

Chris, I'm sorry to hear about you and King.

Yeah.

Just bad luck, really.

Bad timing, I suppose.

Two people who really like each other getting together just that little bit

late. What, so you mean that in time you might...

A top job on pulling this off, by the way.

Without you and Ruby, this would have been a disaster. I'm really impressed.

And I'm really grateful, so thank you.

Yeah. Well, it was mostly down to your dad, to be honest.

I'm sorry you're not having a better night.

Steph.

If there's even the slimmest chance that you and your dad might get back

together, then please don't let anything that I've ever said or done get in the

way of that.

Okay.

Ladies

and

gentlemen... I would like you to please give it up for Waterloo Road's first

prom king and queen, Bolton and Sambuca.

Steph, I was just coming to find you.

Um, Oliver, if you want to run, that's fine.

I don't care about making a fool out of myself. What wants more between friends?

Right, yeah.

But I don't want to be friends.

I want more.

More? More of you.

The full package.

So you're either in or you're out.

A simple no, and I'll...

Cheers. Cheers.

We didn't have to come here, you know. I know, but it means a lot to you after

today. I just wanted to show you that I understand that.

It's one of the things I love about you.

Oh, thank you.

Looks like you made a really, really, really, really good choice of husband.

Yeah.

I am sorry that you feel you've come second to this place.

Yeah, I'm a big boy. I can live with that.

Yeah, but is it a good start to a marriage?

At the moment, you do have to share me with my job.

I mean, that's you. That's who you are. That's not going to change.

You might be surprised.

Look, I'm sure there's something in our vows about not lying. It's only been a

couple of hours.

I've just really been thinking about what you said.

And you were right.

I don't want you to have to share me with anything else at all. I want it to

just the two of us.

So...

I'm going to ditch the third party.

What? This place.

It's been everything to me, and I guess I've convinced myself that it couldn't

function without me, but, you know, I've been proved wrong today.

And I've got you.

You're going to leave?

I am? You're joking. What are you going to do?

What are we going to do, you mean?

I don't know. I thought, you know, why is this going on?

Not come back?

How long?

How long?

A year?

How long till... Well, Mrs. Fleet, I'll follow you to the very ends of the

earth.
