Want this, baby?

I'll have mine.

Look, I'm being serious, Ruth.

Me and Maria have been talking about me maybe moving into her place.

Um, I was thinking about putting Vicky in Betsy's room.

Fine. Absolutely.

You make yourself at home. You're just gonna let them keep having a go at you?

Yeah. Until they get bored.

You? I'm on my little piggy, aren't you?

You're not supposed to call me that anymore.

But it suits your piggy.

Yeah, I've tried that, Charlie. It's still not working.

Can somebody turn this music down, please?

There's no stereo left.

Don't look at me.

Mum, where's my little shirt?

Well, can't you just come over and fix it?

What? I'm trying to get your dad to come and fix the washing machine.

He's obviously got better things to do.

Um, I can't wear that.

Look, you can borrow mine.

Thanks, Vicky.

You, again?

Nope. Liar.

You're a liar.

What are you on about?

I know where you're going, Freddie.

It's a need to sleep over, isn't it?

Nope. Finn Sharkey. To have sex.

What? You're a little grashy. All right, you two, that's enough.

What do we say about your behaviour?

I'm not a slapper, you know.

Don't say that.

Well, you were about to.

I was about to say you were grounded.

That was so mean.

Who cares what you think? You don't even belong here.

I'm 15.

I still live in my house. Dad wouldn't allow me. Dad isn't here, is he? No, I

don't blame him.

Come on, Vicky.

Hi, Ruth.

What am I going to do with that girl?

She's your father's daughter, all right. It's just women's stuff. You're the

only normal one in the family.

At least I can rely on you.

School uniforms are social levellers, so that poorer students and those of

different religious and cultural backgrounds are not marked out. They

discourage bullying.

And?

We're already ten seconds over.

Why does that matter?

Because it's got to be a minute. That's the point.

Sophie McMuller won't be over.

Who? Inter -school debating champion for the past four years.

Until today.

Surely not.

This is a serious competition.

It's Ruth's chance to show what a gifted student she is. You mean it's your

chance to prove how much of a gifted teacher you are. God, the two go hand in

hand. She takes half the water.

Whatever.

Laters. That's not a word.

Bye, Ruth.

Have you fun hanging out full time?

Maybe after school.

Hey, Ruth.

Why, do you know? All right.

See you later, Mum.

Bye, love.

So...

Have you calmed down yet?

I'm perfectly calm, thank you.

Good.

Because Maria's coming in for the debate.

She tried to get out of it, but the head insisted.

Sorry.

What?

I'm waiting for the explosion.

I don't have a problem with your girlfriend being here in a professional

capacity. We're at school now. We're not arguing about the washing machine.

Thanks.

But you can tell the kids.

Good.

What about Poppy? I thought we agreed at Cheryl and called if it's a buy.

Hey, did we?

You said it could have anything to do with what it is.

Well, listen, we've got a few more weeks to think about it yet, haven't we?

Are you all right? Yeah, that room will take that.

And that'll go in the arm.

Hey.

I'll see you later.

Yeah, can't wait for Friday.

Uh, Friday's off.

What? Mum found out.

You're joking, aren't you? She's grounded me. I've changed my bed sheets

everything.

She's rubbish, man.

I'll think of something, okay?

Kiki told her.

What? I don't know, spiteful or what.

Jeff said she could kill her.

Ooh, Jessica.

Looks like you're taking year 11 swimming. Keep it down, would you?

Late night, was it?

Yeah, something like that.

How are you?

Fine, thanks.

How's Claire?

Dressed at least when I left.

This is for you. All you've got to do is pop it in the oven.

Thank you, but I don't need babysitting.

Oh, don't be so prickly. I'm trying to help.

Morning, everyone.

Just to remind you all of today's debating competition against Glossop

please hand these out into your classes.

It's a wonderful platform for gifted students and will improve our reputation

with high -achieving schools.

Not just to show off your daughter, then.

Thanks for coming, kids.

What's this about? I don't want to be late for registration.

Right, well, er...

Maria, my... Put it on the side. ...partner, is an English teacher at

and she's coming in today for the debating competition.

Are you kidding?

What about Mum? Well, Mum understands that it's just professional and it's got

nothing to do with me and her.

Yeah, right.

Oh, come on, Jess.

Be a grown -up about this. Let's keep our private lives private, yeah?

Is that it?

Are you OK with this?

Who's?

I knew I could count on you.

Oh, and keep an eye on your sister for me.

I think we should be doing a lot more inter -school competitions like this.

I mean, I could take charge of them, make it my speciality.

Let's just concentrate on today, please.

We've got to make a good impression.

Of course, why wouldn't we?

It'll be just like Stritler.

Me.

Ready, steady, cook.

You've forgotten the pupils.

Yeah, I... I wanted to get here early enough, just in case. I've told her, and

she's fine.

Really?

Anyway, I think she needs to get used to seeing us together.

I know, I know, but this is hardly how I'd planned it.

Charlie, what about your kids? They understand that you're here to teach,

it's purely professional.

Right, well, then, we should move from where it is.

She's not an old girl.

Well, can't we keep the lights?

It's a bit much, that's all.

Well, what am I going to do now?

I mean, my schedule says that I'm decorating for an hour.

Oi, oi, no, you can't come in here.

There's an event and I'm sorry.

I'm from Glossop Hill. I'm here for the debating competition.

Oh, really?

Can you not wait half an hour?

It's all right, Janice.

Karen Fisher, headteacher. Marie Lucas, deputy head.

I thought I would get here early so that we would have a chance to meet.

How thoughtful.

This is Marcus Kirby, our geography teacher, responsible for the debate

Nice to meet you.

Well, as you're here so early, why don't I take you on a tour of the school?

I'm very proud of what I've, well, what we've achieved here.

No doubt.

I've heard lots of good things.

Hey, how's it going?

Yeah, good, thanks.

I've still got my trousers on.

It's not my first period.

True. You all right, Harry?

Hi.

See you.

Stand up, please, so I can get respect.

Hello.

OK, I hope you all show some support for Ruth this afternoon in the debating

competition. It's so late.

I'll come.

Really? Yeah.

In your seat, please.

You have fun to hang out sometime?

Yeah.

That'd be nice.

And these are our language rooms.

They tell me Waterloo Road is going to be a tough job, but I have to say, apart

from a few bad elements, the kids have been great. Although it's my mission to

stamp out the more disruptive ones as I learn.

Presumably offering a supportive ear for the troubled student, though, not just

throwing them out.

Absolutely, Maria.

Do it.

Maria! Jessica.

Am I missing something?

No. No.

Janice, I've just got your text. Is everything all right?

My ankles are all swollen.

Oh. I couldn't give them a rub, could you?

My heels are chaffing.

I can't go into a room full of VIPs barefoot, can I?

I can't wait to drop this bra.

Come if I fit again.

Right, how are they?

I just can't wait to see the baby for the first time.

I don't know. Look at their little face.

Yeah, and then chuck me out.

Well, it's okay.

No, I love living with you. It's just... Just what?

Oh, I'm sorry.

Cheese and onion.

You can't get me another packet, can you?

Denise. It's the baby that wants him.

All right, don't bite.

I promise.

Go on. I need to practice, don't you?

OK. I'll see you later.

I'll be in the front row.

What do you reckon?

Well, I won't tell your girlfriend.

Don't, son.

Sure. Come sit down, mate.

Move over, Josh.

A school uniform's a good thing because it creates a sense of camaraderie.

They're social levelers.

Fine, don't talk to me then. But now that Sam's gone, ask yourself who your

mates are, yeah?

Oh my God, it's her, look!

Who?

That Sophie something, you know the one who gets all my books?

She's well up herself.

Even a little gang of girly mates.

Oh, can't.

Too right.

Sophie McMullen?

She's my rival. In this debate? No way.

Yeah, but I'm easily better.

Well, but I'll wipe that smirk off her face, then. And we'll be there to see

Really?

Come on.

Let's go and say hello to the competition. Oi, dingbat!

Denzel, how do you fancy making some cash?

Me? Yeah.

So what's your type, then, Hasbond?

Um, you know, the, uh, the usual.

Look at this one, looks like your sister.

I'm only joking, mate. Come on.

Are you boys laughing at... Oh, does one eat the bottom white?

Oh, piggy.

Or should I say skiddy?

Very funny, lads.

You like it, do you?

I'm not scared of you.

Hush your talking.

I've got a big mouth here, you know. Might try keeping it quiet.

Waterloo Road.

We are so excited about having you here this afternoon.

Now, if you'd just like to make your way through to the canteen and leave your

bags and coats and then we can go through to the hall.

This is my daughter Ruth, our secret weapon. This is our shining star,

Pleased to meet you.

You're supposed to be good.

She's better than good. Yeah, she's unbeatable.

No one's unbeatable.

Uh, Ruth is.

You're the one.

You're not even pretty.

Jess.

Don't you dare embarrass me. What, do you want to just act like everything's

right? No, it's not the time.

Why don't you just leave it? Look, it's okay.

How is it okay?

You're shagging my dad.

Go.

Okay.

Karen, I'm so sorry.

Well, you can't blame her for being angry. No, I don't.

I understand how difficult this must be for all of you. Really?

I have two kids.

And when my husband and I got divorced... Charlie and I are not

I just... I just mean I understand your kids are messed up about it.

Don't you dare tell me that my kids are messed up.

My kids are fine.

Thank you very much.

So, basically, what Shakespeare's saying is that if it's true love, as in a

marriage of true minds, then nothing can alter it. Not time, tempest, nothing.

That's a nice sentiment, JK, but as we all know, poetry isn't real life.

That was actually rather good, despite the cynicism. Oh, while I

remember, I am obliged to hand these out.

Debate. And argument is an important part of learning to use the English

language.

Although you all seem to have the argument part mastered.

You OK?

Yeah, sorry, you just ignored me.

So, will you come watch Ruth and me after?

Did I tell you if I don't?

Yeah, but would you do me a favour?

Of course.

Would you come with me this Friday?

Tell Mum that I'm studying with you.

Why?

Well, because me and Finn were supposed to have a night in together, but Mum

found out and went ape.

But if she thinks I'm with you, then she won't think anything funny's going on.

Right. So you do it?

I don't like lying.

For me?

Don't think so, Jess.

Sorry.

Jessica Fisher, turn round and zip it.

OK, today we're going to be making chocolate fool, which is one of my

Right, so I know it's not the healthiest of desserts, but, you know, every now

and again you've got to treat yourselves.

OK.

Can you break your chocolate up into your bowl, please?

And do it quietly.

You've just got two minutes to leave the room, OK?

Thank you very much. Carry on. Very quick.

Hey, Harry.

I just want to say that... What Finn did at break?

I thought it was a bit harsh and I just want you to know it weren't my idea.

So if you ever need a chat... I'm all right, Dad.

What are you doing, Josh?

What are you talking to him for?

Give him a break, Finn.

Why should I?

He's done nothing to you.

Come on. No.

You know what?

You're just as much of a loser as him.

Whatever.

Help yourselves to lunch, everyone.

Can you not just give me a minute?

I said... Ow!

Thank God.

You've been at the quiche.

The room you just left, I'm going to have to ditch it.

And your place it was.

Was that the one that you made?

Sorry, that's taken.

Well, you're going to have to pop to the shop and get me another.

I'm not going to pop to the shops, Janice. I've got lessons to teach.

Well, I need it. I mean, what are they going to think of me? Do you know what?

don't care. Oh, charming.

You may be carrying our baby, but I'm not your slave. Oh, I see. So if it's

the baby, fine. If it's for me, forget it.

Yes. Oh, good, good, good.

You can shut it in all.

You might as well have it now.

I knew it. I shouldn't be here. That's not the point, dare she.

The poor kid, she must... I don't mean Jess, I mean Karen.

Oh, no.

It wasn't her fault.

How dare she have a go at you?

Charlie, she was just being protective and I would be exactly the same.

Hang on, I'll speak to her.

I should never have mentioned your kids.

I'm not having her treat you like that.

Charlie, please don't make an issue of this.

Quit on me.

Current favourite of the three to two. Not worth a bet under a five. Have you

got any money?

Oh, you'd better win.

What happens if I don't? Half the school leaves his money.

Yeah, stick a tenner on the curvy girl.

Right you are, Governor.

Right, come on, champ.

Bike her out.

What do you mean?

You know, like boxers do.

Put the woolies up her. Go on.

So, I hope you're ready for a fight.

Come on, then.

The only word you have to remember today is loser.

Dad, I'm not sure about this.

Ruth, there's nothing to worry about.

I remember my first debating competition. I was nervous as hell, but

up there, I knew I could do it. As I know you can.

This is yours.

Right. Thank you.

Now, where were we?

Right.

Where is it?

Come on.

Where is it?

Harry took it. What?

I can't lie for you, mate.

Did you take that from the hall?

Did you?

Well, you're a greedy little pig.

I spent hours... Right.

Come on. You come in with me.

Come on.

He's supposed to accept Maria when you won't. I'm trying, Charlie, but I'm not

going to put my arms around her and give her a big hug. Don't be so facetious.

Hey.

Look, I'm sorry about all of this.

Don't you apologise.

You're the one who said you could keep this professional. And you should not

have brought our personal life into this school. You said it was OK.

What else could I say?

Patricia, please.

Your son's been helping himself to food which isn't his. Food is taken from the

buffet in there.

Harry? Leave this to me, Charlie. I am the head.

I'll see you in there.

I spent two hours making a quiche and I could have been sitting in there with my

feet up.

I'm sorry, Ruby.

I'll take it from here.

For goodness sake, Harry.

I gave you your lunch.

You're my passion. I give you enough food.

Mum, it's Mrs Fisher in school.

What are you saying? Well, the lad's obviously hungry.

I don't have time for this. I thought I could rely on you. You can.

Well, obviously not.

I've no option but to give you a week's detention.

Mum! I don't want to hear another word from you today.

Now, can we get back to this competition?

Be a little bit professional.

I'll be back in time for your bit.

Scoot off, pig -face.

She's got all the support she needs.

You don't have to come.

I want to.

Such a lame -o.

I know.

Stop dawdling, please.

Come on, Harry.

I love swimming.

Don't you, Skiddy?

Miss, I don't feel well. Me neither, so tap.

Please, Miss, I've been sick all night. And I'm supposed to take your word for

this. Finn, I tried to get one of my mates to cover, but no joy.

What? I tried.

Look, well, maybe it's not such a bad thing. I mean, it's not all about sex,

it? Fine, whatever.

Jess, I really need a favour, please.

Curl up and dye, yeah?

You've ruined a beautiful thing, skinny.

And I'm even a pig.

You mustn't be too hard on Harry.

Don't tell me how to be a parent.

You, of all people.

I'm just saying.

Well, don't.

One, two, one, two, one, two.

Right, can I have your attention, please? Good afternoon, ladies and

boys and girls.

Welcome to today's debating competition.

Each candidate will be arguing for or against the motion school uniform should

be scrapped, condensing their argument into a one -minute speech. Can I have

first contestant, please?

Round of applause, come on.

Come on.

I'm not going to win. Two pound on you, please.

Another bet on Ross Jr. at 22.

I don't understand.

Who do I want to win?

We don't get the monkeys.

Sophie, Ruth, whoever.

As long as I don't win, then we're in the money.

Nice, yeah.

Jane, do you want a hand with those?

No, am I right?

What about that poor baby, you squashy?

That? Oh, it's fine.

Look, it's absolutely fine.

You're as stubborn as Chloe was.

You'll be asking for help soon enough when it's crying all night.

I'll have to worry about that, will I? Thank God.

Yeah.

Genius.

What is it? I've lost my trunk. We're just going to have to borrow some.

Of who?

Well, we keep some spare ones here.

Well, off you go then. I want you in that pool with everyone else.

Where were we?

Whee!

Nice drunk!

One turn round, skinny. Let's see that little ass.

You've got plenty of chlorine in there, mate.

I'm getting a bit scared, if you know what I mean. Get in the water now,

It's whiter now.

Go on, skinny.

Let's see you skin.

Chris Dutton, out! Out! You get out!

She's all now in her trousers.

I said shut it!

I'm sorry.

School uniforms are an outmoded and pointless British tradition.

There is no proven link between school uniforms and improved behaviour.

Bullying is just as rife in uniform schools as ever.

rid of these gang colours.

Isn't school about learning to express yourself as an individual?

Finding your own voice rather than following the herd.

Why pretend we're all the same when we're not?

Instead we should be celebrating these differences.

To conclude, school uniforms stop us from being who we really are.

I'll check him over to be sure.

What happened here?

Well, come on, I want answers now.

Right, all of you, get changed. Now.

They're calling Mrs Fisher.

OK, next up for Waterloo Road, we have Nicola Harrison arguing against the

motion.

I just got a message from Karen.

She's very...

I suppose you should go and find out.

I've checked him over and he's fine.

OK, he doesn't need to go to hospital.

What happened?

Nothing. He was being bullied.

No, I wasn't. I spoke with the other pupils, Harry.

It seems that Finn and Josh were the ringleaders, but everyone else got

involved. It's been going on for some time, apparently.

Harry? It's no big deal.

Why did you go under the water? What were you trying to do? Nothing. I just

wanted the noise to stop.

How long has the bullying been going on? It's fine. I can handle it. Just go

easy on him, will you?

Oh, it's a bit late for you to turn up being the concerned father.

What? Just leave this to me.

Hang on.

He's my son. And he's mine, too. And you haven't exactly been there for him,

have you? That is not fair.

Stop it!

Just leave us alone, Dad.

You heard him.

You know I'm here for you, don't you?

I want the names of everyone who's been bullying you. And if you don't want to

tell me, you write them down.

And we're not going away from here until you do.

Right. If we could have our next competitor, Ronan Burnie, to the stage.

Just one second.

This is what I think about school uniform.

Why'd you so worry about the future?

But then I threw my caution to the wind Nothing left for me

to do but dance

You're just making a valid debate and point through the medium of interpretive

dancing. I have a good mind to disqualify you. Oh, no, sir. Well, at

could make up with this idiot.

Josh.

Finn.

Just about everybody else.

And your sister. You asked for the names.

Why didn't you tell me about this? What's the point? You can't suspend the

school. We'll bet on it.

Time, time, time.

Thank you, thank you.

Thank you, yes.

Come on, come on, come on.

Is everything okay?

I can't believe that woman. She's turning my own kids against me.

Well, I'm sure that isn't true. It's hardly my fault. I haven't seen her.

the one that's kept me away.

Before we hear from our very own...

Right,

I've informed Mr Clarkson about what has gone on.

Harry, I'd like you to tell Finn and Josh about how you felt at the swimming

pool today.

Come on.

This is your chance to make them listen.

You know, you're such a lame -o.

And I hate that you make me feel so bad. And you, you just walk around sucking

up to him. No, I don't.

Let him finish.

I think you're both just sad.

Can I speak now?

Yeah.

You could tell us why you and Josh feel the need to be so cruel to Harry.

How about because he's a pathetic loser with a big mouth? That's enough.

No wonder he's always stuffing it with sweets. I said, that's enough. But it's

true. He eats so much, he makes himself sick.

I've seen you.

Harry?

It's true.

Do you make yourself sick?

Look at me.

Do you make yourself sick?

How often?

Four or five times a day.

Why didn't you tell me?

Because you rely on me.

Can I stay, though? Yeah.

I'm not going anywhere.

What?

I just spoke to Sarah in the toilet.

Apparently, Finn has been really nasty to Harry at swimming. Nearly drowned.

What? What is it?

Nothing for you to worry about.

It's all right. I'll go with her. No, it's family business.

And that's another thing.

She's fine on discipline at school, but at home... Can we stop talking about

this, please? The thing about Karen is she just never listens to anyone.

Do you ever shut up about your wife?

You two, more than anyone, know what it's like to feel sad and

vulnerable and different from other people.

And don't think I don't know whose idea this was.

When are you going to stop bullying people that don't conform to your idea

what's normal?

You're going to end up very lonely one day.

Can I go now?

You'll both be suspended for a week.

Mr Fish has put you on report. That's an official strike.

Whatever. Get out.

You really think his friendship's worth it?

Sorry.

I'll make up to Harry. I promise.

I'm sorry, I'm just so wound up.

You're always wound up about her.

And I can't deal with it anymore.

What do you mean?

It's not working.

It's not.

Well, because I'm so angry with Karen.

No, because she's always here. It's like there are three of us in this

relationship. No, no, that's not true.

Then why do I feel like a spare bed you come to every time you need a break?

You move in with me, then you go back and you come to me again.

And I do.

And I can't share you anymore. Listen to me.

I love you.

And I want to be with you.

How can I be sure of that?

I'll tell her.

I'll tell her I want a divorce.

It's time for our very own champion.

Rutger!

School is a place for learning, not a fashion show, where students needn't be

ridiculed for not having the designer labels.

School uniforms.

Well, get on with it.

School uniforms.

School uniforms.

Uniforms are the same.

Yeah, a lot of rubbish.

And he's stronger to roll.

You're doing great.

I like it.

It's nice.

Just concentrate on your breathing.

I never learnt this to you for breathing.

I did, I did. Come on.

Get in.

Wake up.

You went too far.

Oh, don't be soft.

Hey, baby.

I've been looking for you.

That's my brother.

You ate your brother. It's my brother.

You know, he only went out with you for a dare.

Steve, the rumours were true. Right, cooler.

Now, please.

I can't say I didn't enjoy that.

Can you tell me why you do it?

Because... I don't know.

I get stressed and then...

I feel like I have to eat.

It's okay.

I can't stop myself.

And then I feel full and disgusting.

So I make myself sick.

I feel better.

You've all voted to ban school uniform, unsurprisingly.

But who was the most persuasive speaker?

Votes for Ruth Kirby.

Votes for Sophie McMullen.

And votes for Ronan Burley.

Right. Well, it looks like you're the winner.

Yeah, but you said I was disqualified. I said you might be.

I don't deserve it. Here.

Karen, we need to talk.

What's happened?

Is Harry OK?

Charlie...

We've been such terrible parents.

Harry's bulimic.

What? He's been so miserable.

And we haven't even noticed.

I've been so caught up in you and us and... I've been so angry all the time.

It's okay, shh.

Look, we'll be there from now on, all right?

I'll come home.

Look at the damage we've done to our kids.

You don't love me anymore.

I'm sorry. Don't be.

We've had 20 really good years.

I'll always be there for them. You know that, don't you? I know that.

I know.

The first thing in the morning.

I'll call the solicitor.

First thing in the morning, I'll call the solicitor.

Shall I come round and fix that washing machine?

No.

I'll get in a really fit plumber.

Hey. What's the matter?

Messed up?

Barely let my dad down.

He was relying on me.

Everyone was.

I know that feeling.

I heard about Finn.

I'm sorry.

And I'm sorry about earlier too.

I don't really think you're lying.

You're the only one.

My dad's going to kill me. Remember what you said to me?

That if you stand up for yourself...

You get respect.

I'd better go.

My mum's waiting.

It's OK.

You don't have to hang around anymore.

I understand.

Hey, maybe you've got to drive. OK?

All right.

Just everything's such a mess.

Mum, Dad, Harry.

I've been such a cow.

No, I'd say more like a panda.

God, I'm sorry. It's just that my head is all over the shop at the moment. I

don't know what I want. I don't even want anyone.

I'm not in a hurry.

You're pretty cool, you know that?

Yeah.

So go on then, I've got my first one coming.

I want you guys!

Here's your little girl.

Is that wrong?

There you go.

It's very important that mother bonds with baby.

I don't need to.

I just need to go to my locker to get some more cash. I'll be back in a tick.

What's your name, Denzel? I'm about to teach you one of the third principles in

business. In case of your losses, bail out.

Like I said, Luther.

Pick a better mascot next time.

I'm not a mascot.

Please be my friend.

As if.

Yeah, right.

Loser with no mates.

Even worse.

I'd rather be a loser with no mates than a seven -six -year -old cow who has to

put people down she's threatened by.

Go, Ruth.

Now you find your voice.

Why didn't you find it during the debate?

Do you want to know why I died?

Because of you, that's why.

I'm fed up of always being on show, making you look good. Maybe I'm not as

clever as you, but I'm my own person, and from now on, that's who I want to

Not Marcus Kirby's genius daughter. Just me.

Plain old Ruth.

But, um, Ruth, you can hang out with us if you like.

I'd rather hang around with Harry Fisher.

Laters. That's not the word.

It's my word.

What? Er, nothing, just a little room with apples.

You deserve it.

What?

Josh!

Josh, look, I might have took the Harry thing a bit far, but it's just Fisher,

man. He won an only chance, gone.

There are more girls, you know.

I suppose.

Do they want... I think it's time you gave your father a break and Maria a

chance.

Hiya.

Listen, how do you both fancy coming over for tea at the weekend?

If that's okay.

I can do with the rest.

Kids?

Hurry.

Give them time.

See you soon.

Bye.

Right, you two.

Family time.

What's that?

You'll see.

Here she is, our poppy.

She's gone. Yeah.

Oh, I don't know what to do with her.

I think she's hungry.

Do you think she wants Janice? Where is she?

She's gone to the toilet.

We can do this.

Yes, we can.

My little girl.

Listen,

Mum.

I want to apologise about how... I've handled your dad leaving.

I didn't take into account how upset you've been.

I'm sorry about that.

But things are going to be different from now on.

Why? Because it's time we behaved like a family.

OK.

So it's more talking, more meals together.

Not every night, though, right?

I don't need babysitting. Oh, it's not babysitting.

You also owe your brother a bit of TLC.

I've said I'm sorry and I'll try and be here when I can, but I'm not going to

give up my life, Mum.

Don't be selfish, Jess.

Can we not argue again?

Please.

Hiya.

I'll tell you what, I won't go out again.

Where have I heard that before? Oh, so now you're calling me a liar?

No, I'm not.

Harry, will you set a place up for Bex, please?

Excuse me. Hurry.

Go away.

Hurry. Go away.

Think you can fix this like everything else? You can't.

But we can talk about it. What's the point? You never listen.

I'm listening now.

You think we can be all happy families? It's rubbish.

I'm sorry your dad left.

You see? You're still not listening now.

This isn't about dad leaving.

We've never been a family since... Say it. Since Bex left.

None of us matter.

She's like this ghost that's always here. And I hate it.

But I can't say anything. So I do this because it's better than crying.

Oh, love.

You have to clear up.

I don't mind.

You just stop.

Look, I'm sorry.

It's not your fault.

Mum just needs to let go of Bex, that's all.

Yeah, but I'm not really helping her, am I?

I'll just go.

I don't want you to.

I know.

But I think I need to.

Where will you go?

I'll go to my mum's.

She's always honoured me about moving in anyway, so... I thought you don't like

your mum.

Yeah, well, she's all right these days.

Are you sure?

Yeah, totally.

I'm going to get my stuff.

I love you.

Love you too.

She was so... Much better than me, I know.

No. Messed up.

A high achiever.

Yeah. When she was 12, maybe, but that's not the Bex that left us.

She was taken from us.

We don't know that.

She was trouble, Mum.

She was never here.

She was always bunking off school. She stole money from you. You know that.

Well, just her face.

She'd have grown out of it. Well, she didn't.

She disappeared She's gone She's

not coming back

I'm sorry, you two.

We're closing all of this. Time to go home.

Why don't you say it louder so the whole school can hear you? No, Papa.

It's only Janice here.

Janice, are you OK with this?

I'll tell Mrs Fisher about you and Jeff.

No. No, no. You've got to stop this now, Vicky.

Someone was down here.

I heard noises.

They were after my things, my nice things.

Let me remind you of something.

Sweetheart, you live in this dump just the same as me.

Fuck!

Nobody stabs me if I can get away with it. Right!

You're finished, Knicks!
