Original subtitles

Full well you attacked me in the pub. You fell over into a table. That's what

you told the police when they arrested you for beating your father to a pulp.

I'm a friend of Michael's. I didn't think he even knew where I live.

He doesn't know I'm here.

I'm begging for it.

Well, I'll let Lorenzo have me to go to this charity thing again. I can't dick

with a little boss downtown.

You're jealous.

I don't need his help.

Oi, aren't you going to introduce us then?

Angus.

Go.

This doesn't need to be a war.

Don't you think it's time we work together?

Joint drama productions, debating competitions, sports, you name it.

Weirdest dream about Simon Cowell last night.

It was more like a nightmare.

Don't know what people see in him.

You all set to do me proud today.

It's only an inter -school race. I'm not bothered.

Yeah, right.

I'm sure you have a lot, but couldn't care less if Waterloo would beat you.

I must make this all its liberty.

I don't know what to do.

I don't think it'd be so bad.

I need to speak to you. Call me.

Good morning.

Morning.

Priceless. Oh, come on, you're oddly his number one fan, are you?

I just hope that pupil manages to stay anonymous.

Wouldn't want to be in their shoes if Gerard finds them out.

So he'd encourage some of his pupils not to come to school so he doesn't have to

exclude them, which would skew his figures.

Yeah, and that bit about him getting them to drop subjects, they're likely to

fail?

Well, I knew he was cutting back on academic subjects, but I had no idea it

this serious. No Spanish, religious studies, politics.

The man's an idiot.

He's been riding the lazy train far too long. It's about time he was outed.

Good to see you're getting behind me into the school bridge building.

Bridge building?

Thought it was a quiz and array.

Very funny.

Look, I'm serious.

We have to be seen to be getting along with him, no matter how difficult

Findlay's making it. It's not just about us, it's also about this community.

Community?

He's failing, we're not. End of.

We have to try and persuade Havelock.

And especially persuade Findlay that Waterloo Road is not a threat. We're

neighbouring school. Run by a capable head.

Maybe we should rethink today, all right?

Mix up the teams a bit, make it less them and us. Last thing he needs after

is an embarrassing defeat.

Rubbish. Want them to think we're scared?

Tanya?

Yes?

OK, well, you make up the hours when you get back in, all right?

Looks like you might have to hand over Denise for the day.

Might I?

Yeah, I need her to book flights and a hotel for my business trip tomorrow.

You were the one who said I should be here to cheer on our team today.

Well, out of one frying pan and into another, that's all I'm saying. Can't be

easy being Janice.

OK, Miss Donegan?

Yeah, that's not a problem.

Love to.

All right, see you soon.

Huh? Morning.

Your carriage awaits.

Oh, two secs. I just need to get Cheryl ready.

Oh, see. Hello, darling.

Have you been feeding her pizza again?

What? What? I'll give cereal for tea. What does it matter what order it goes

Oh, typical.

I'm a hootie spot just when I don't need it.

I'll, er, I'll go and get the engine running.

Baby girl, your mum is going to work for a very important lady today.

Oh.

You've inherited my game.

I shall commit with that.

Are you here for a competition?

Do you think you just tell me?

That's you.

You're welcome.

I can't believe I picked the cross country team. Good deal.

Says the hetero didn't get picked for either team.

Really? Oh, shut up, right. It's my good luck charm.

Is she actually going to wear it then? Yeah, I always wear it when I run.

You heard from her, didn't you?

What? Where is she?

Shut up, Brianna. You know where she is. The whole school's heard about it.

Yeah, well, obviously I didn't.

She's in prison.

No way.

I knew you were a skank, but seriously.

Scout, she wasn't joking, right?

Really, that's how marriage was true.

I didn't actually believe anyone could be that stupid.

Miss McFarlane?

Liberty?

I got your message. What happened? Is it your mum?

Yeah, that's when I gave it to her.

That was you?

That's not your smartest move. What? You said I should do something about that.

I didn't mean talk to the press. You're not supposed to sit back and do nothing.

First he stopped me from setting history, now he's dropped politics.

I need humanity to get into uni.

But apparently running's all I'm good for.

I doubt whistleblowing is going to get him to change his mind.

I hope for your sake he doesn't find out it was you. He can find out. I don't

know what he'll do to me.

You have to get me a place here. You have to ask them for me.

Please. I'll do my best.

I'll bet you're really enjoying this, eh?

What does she want?

Nothing. Look at this.

Liables, all of it.

Vicious lies.

Whoever concocted this nonsense must really have it in for me.

You know what they say about today's news?

Tomorrow's chip paper.

This could ruin me.

Ruin Havelock.

Connor, where the hell were you this morning?

Stop ignoring my calls.

I don't know what you're playing at, but it better stop.

That bad already?

Oh, your cardigans.

I can't even dress myself.

I just wondered what time the departmental meeting was this afternoon.

Are you OK?

Yeah, fine.

Just all over the place this morning.

It's... it's Connor.

What's he doing?

Well, I haven't seen him all morning. I've no idea where he is. He's not

bothering to answer my calls.

Yeah.

So, um, the meeting?

Um... Well, I've got 4 .30 in my head for some reason, but I didn't write it

down. Yeah, that's it. 4 .30.

I'll... I'll see you later.

Morning. Morning, Martin.

OK.

Now, despite the bad press Havelock have received today, we have decided to go

ahead with the inter -school competition.

But can we please make sure that all copies of this newspaper are binned?

Findlay and his team arrive.

He's already here, and I wouldn't go near him with a barge pole if I were

Gerard and stress are not a good mix.

I'm not surprised he's stressed. We've seen a kick and he got in there. Well,

I'll be amazed if he's got enough pupils left to put together a decent team.

Well, we are going to try and talk to Findlay about mixing up the teams. I

it's more important that we're seen to be cooperating with neighbouring

Tom, over to you.

So, uh, the quiz will start at nine o 'clock.

Our team will be made up of pupils who deserve the most encouragement after all

their hard work so far this term.

But remember, it's only the pupils that have written the questions that are

allowed into the audience.

For everyone else, it's a normal day, OK?

Whatever normal is.

The race will start at 12 .30 at the front gate.

Now, I know that's in the middle of our lunch break, but please, the more

support, the better.

Thank you.

Guess who's quiz master?

Yours truly.

Really? University of Manchester.

Team captain, 1974.

Of course, he was Bamber back then.

Made it to the quarterfinals.

Pipped at the post by Queen's College Cambridge.

Christine, is everything all right? Tom said that Connor was acting up again.

He's not been drinking, has he?

No, no.

I'm sure everything's fine.

Thanks for your concern, Lauren.

Michael, could I have a quick word?

Sure.

I just think Liberty would be a great addition to the school role.

And she's really suffering, for want of a better word, under Gerard's tenure.

Well, I know you've got issues with him, but I don't expect you to hear them in

public. And I certainly don't expect you to use pupils as ammunition.

Oh, no, Michael, please. I'm just saying she'd be an asset to the school.

She's head girl.

Definitely not, then. What's so special about her?

She's an amazing athlete, national level, and she's also very bright.

No, but she just hasn't had the encouragement she needs and deserves.

Havelock is failing her.

National -level athlete.

Might prove handy on the press front. No, no, no, we're not enrolling pupils

just for the free press.

Why not?

What? No, we're not getting into this thing of nicking Havelock's pupils,

particularly a talented head girl.

Spoil sport.

Good morning.

Not really, no.

I can imagine.

You're suspiciously quiet.

Sorry? Is that an apology?

What am I meant to have done?

Could we just get this... Put some of my pupils up to the newspaper expose,

perhaps? I don't think so.

Why are you so set on sabotaging my school?

Gerard, I think you need to gather yourself.

Don't.

Don't pretend to be my friend.

I'm not pretending.

You always hated the way I was so much quicker up the ladder than you.

You think I envy you?

Not that this isn't entertaining, but... You think you can come here with your

cash and your lipstick and buy success?

Yeah. I've also employed a head that can actually do his job without cutting

corners and get results.

So you're cutting corners?

No.

No, I've never done that.

I'm only guilty of trying to protect my school.

Oh, you think you know it all, don't you?

You've been at the game five minutes and suddenly you're an expert.

I'm just glad I'm behind a school that doesn't let its kids down.

Didn't you see the paper last week?

When was the last time on your pupils' front page for winning a national level

800 metre race?

Liberty, was it?

This isn't helping anyone.

Yeah, that incredible pupil of yours is actually trying to find a place here.

So perhaps you have let her down after all.

What? Yeah, that's right.

She wants a place at Waterloo Road and who can blame her?

If that article's anything to go by.

Look, can we all just try calming down, OK? Today was supposed to be about

cooperation. Gerard, I've had an idea to mix up the teams. Take the heat off

things a bit. Don't take off the kid gloves.

We're here to compete.

May the best team win.

So are you on the quick team?

I'd rather be once for my brain over my brawn any day.

Sorry, were you picked for the cross -country team?

Nothing wrong with me being fifth.

No argument for me, though.

Liberty.

Hi, Gus.

You here for the competition?

Sounds like I'll have had luck just in time.

Finlay's such a loser.

So who do you reckon squealed to the papers?

How should I know?

Hello again.

Don't look so worried, just because you're on the losing team.

Who said I was worried?

Fighting talk.

I like it.

I can't believe you got me up at half five this morning.

Worth it, though.

It was beautiful.

I used to love the woods when I was a kid.

Definitely beats my usual morning routine.

Let's just say it's not my mum's finest hour of the day.

So how about we grab some food after school?

I suppose my arm could be twisted.

Come on, Dad, you're in a good mood, cos funnily enough, your mother isn't.

What? She's worried sick about you.

What's it to you?

I know it's tricky.

for someone of your age, but why don't you try thinking about someone else for

change?

Not like you to be late.

Sorry.

Where were you?

I had some stuff to do.

So you have a good reason for missing a staff briefing, then?

Uh -huh.

Are you okay?

If you must know, I was visiting your father.

He's been discharged from hospital.

Ah, wonderful.

He'd like to see you. No, you'd like me to see him.

So just quit it with the Intervention Act, OK?

I feel responsible.

I involved him. If I hadn't, he might not have gotten ill.

Well, then you shouldn't have got him involved.

He defended you.

So he openly admits to beating my mother, and that's OK? Clean slate?

No, but it's the start.

Yeah, well, some relationships are beyond fixing.

Well, I guess I'm lucky you didn't feel that way about you and I.

Serious?

What's up?

Scott's mum's been given an early release.

She's coming to meet her after school.

Are you going to go see her?

I know what my mum did wrong.

What an understatement.

I can't just ignore her, can I?

Yeah, you can.

I do kind of know what it's like.

Yeah, right.

You only get one family, don't you?

Wish I'd been picked for one of the teams.

Talk about an easy day.

Instead, you're stuck with a reject like me for the day, eh?

I reckon I could cope with that.

If I could just peel you apart for a second.

What do you want?

We're worth it.

Oh.

Would it be nice to let me know?

You didn't wake me, no breakfast, my schedule, you did nothing.

You're a big doll now. I thought you would have managed it without me for a

change.

Testing, testing.

Hello,

Liberty.

Or should I say...

Judith, I know what you've done.

Yeah? Well, you deserve it. I should have went to the press ages ago.

What? Everything OK?

Why would you say those things?

Because they're true.

You're backstabbing me. Now, listen, let's not do this.

No wonder you've gone crawly to this, Lord. I'd rather go anywhere than your

excuse for a school.

After everything I've done for you.

All the fundraising for your athletics.

This isn't the time or the place. You're deluded.

You know that. You think you're so much better than you actually are. Enough, Mr

Finlay. You are not academic.

Fact.

You picked the wrong person to cross.

Are you still missing a team member?

Liberty has kindly agreed to step in.

Right, OK. Well, best of luck.

Audrey, could I have a word?

I thought you wanted to win.

I do.

So I suggest you keep your mouth shut and let the others answer the questions.

You owe me.

Miss Donegan's office.

What do you mean, a fever? Is she OK?

No, of course not.

I'll get her picked up as soon as, OK?

Thanks.

So, can anyone tell me what this is?

Anyone?

What is it?

This is a Venn diagram.

Venn, favourite maths teacher.

What are you doing?

The child needs picking up his ball. What's up?

Well, nothing too serious, just a slight temperature.

I'm surprised that the child mind is trying to palm her off so quickly, if

honest. I can't.

Oh, it's my one -off chance to show the room what I'm capable of. She's too

young for you, sir.

Please, just until lunchtime, and then I'll pick her up and take her to the

docs.

You are the best, best ever. I will make you. I'll thank you at dinner tonight.

I promise.

I'll shut the door now.

Looks like you're in there, sir.

Yes, sure.

Venn diagrams.

What do we know about them?

Yes.

Harley.

Yeah, well, good morning.

And welcome to the first part of the inter -school competition.

I am your quiz master, Mr Budgin.

Jeremy Paxman's got nothing on me. Watch it.

You all know the rules. Fingers on the buzzers. First round is history.

Ta -da!

Now, listen.

Uncle Dandan's going to teach some smelly kids now. Ooh!

Listen, you can go home soon, can't you?

Yes, and in a couple of hours you can have some more of this lovely strawberry

medicine. Yes, Benny.

Was that for me?

What was that?

Don't you worry about that. That's just a stupid fairy bell. That's that.

Yes.

Shh.

Anyway, you know the rules. You're supposed to wait outside.

Keep the noise down, please.

His name was Adolf

Hitler Havelock.

Who was the Italian dictator during the Second World War?

Waterloo Road, Hancock.

Mussolini? Correct.

Who was known as the Maid of Orleans?

Come on, come on.

Waterloo Road, Fleming.

Joan of Arc.

Correct.

What nationality was Christopher Columbus?

Havelock High, Gordon.

American. Wrong. Lose a point.

Waterloo Road.

CB. Italian.

Correct.

Who brought Jay after?

Havelock High. Gordon.

Lee Harvey Oswald. Correct.

Sorry, I don't feel well.

Is she OK?

OK, thanks, Gloria. I'll be there as soon as I can.

So, if Rachel measured 156 centimetres on her 15th birthday, and she was 8 %

taller than she was the year before, how much... Yes,

darling, we had Uncle Dan Dan say it.

But you...

Would you want a drink or a snack or something?

Uncle Dandan, I'm starving. Can I have a snack?

What's she doing in here, anyway?

I told you, I'm doing a favour for a friend. And I expect you all to keep it

yourselves, OK?

Sir, why is her make -up on the toy?

She's covering spots.

It's not chicken pox, is it? I haven't had that.

What's wrong with her?

I don't believe it. You put make -up on her.

What is it?

Is it infectious?

Shut up. You're making me itch.

What is the capital of Colombia?

Waterloo Road, Fleming.

Columbia City.

Wrong. Loser point. Columbia cities in northeast Indiana.

Have a look.

Barnes.

Bogota. Correct.

On what side of the road do people drive in Japan?

Have a look. High. Collins.

Right.

Wrong. Loser point.

Waterloo.

Hancock.

Left. Genius.

And at the end of that round, we'll communicate.

Have a lock. Trail on nine.

The next round is music.

Mum!

What happened?

A small tumble, that's all.

It's not what Gloria said.

Oh, Gloria's an infernal busybody.

Where is she, anyway?

I told her to go back next door.

Have you called the doctor?

I'm fine.

Seriously, forget about me.

How's your day going?

Okay.

I've got a question right on the quiz today.

Who shot JFK? I didn't know you were on the quiz team.

That's super idyllic.

Do you want a couple of these?

I've already taken them.

This would be a pack missing. Can you have a look for them?

No.

Something up?

Listen, Mum.

You know all the hype about my running?

Doesn't it be such a big deal, does it?

It's a huge deal.

You are an amazingly talented athlete. I'm so proud of you.

So get out there and show them what you're made of.

There's ginger nuts on your way out.

Right, let's see my schedule for tomorrow.

Nearly there.

Well, I think I've found a suitable hotel.

Oh, good.

What time's my flight?

I'm just about to get on the plane.

You are joking, right?

Oh, last minute. I mean, it's so difficult.

Hurry up, then.

Oh, Janice, answer the phone.

Look, we need to talk now.

Just call me.

What are you doing?

Wipe that mess off your faces.

Sir, I think it's catching me to lie down.

No -one is going anywhere.

We shouldn't be exposed to an infectious drug. It's against health and safety.

That's right.

Everyone grab your stuff and get out before it's too late.

Sit down.

All of you.

I said sit down.

I'm not feeling at all well, Connor. I need you to take me home.

You look fine.

I'm not well, Connor.

Well, go to the doctor then.

See? What did I tell you?

There's nothing wrong with you.

It's a bit harsh, wasn't it?

No.

She just wanted a bit of TLC.

She's not ill.

No way would you tell me if she really was. She wouldn't want me nagging about

her going to the doc.

She's got her attention seeking. You don't know what she's like.

Have a look.

25.

Waterloo Road.

44.

And the final one.

Mr Budgeon, seeing as we're almost out of time and it's clear we now have a

winner, maybe we could draw things to a close now.

You don't need a charity.

It's not charity. I just want to make sure we finish on time.

We're a team member down.

Surely it's null and void.

We were winning long before that girl left.

Well, that's it, then. The winners, by an impressive margin of 19 points,

are Waterloo Road.

Why did you wake up? It's my mum.

Is she OK?

Did you say about me getting a place here?

I'm working on it. You work harder.

Look, why don't you get out there and show them what you're made of?

Run your best race, then.

I'll have to, won't I?

I'll run it to the starting point, please. The race will begin in five

What are they?

Nothing. None of your business.

Must be dodgy, then.

Come and stop someone else.

What are they?

Nothing.

That desperate to win, are you?

Steroids, is it?

Pathetic. Pathetic?

Look at yourself.

Can I have a word?

Yeah, make it quick.

I caught Liberty taking drugs.

She didn't even deny it.

She's cheating.

I think she's on some performance enhancers or something.

You go with me.

What the hell do you think you're playing at?

What? I can't be seen to condone drugs that be cuttings for me.

What did he do?

Just need something to get me through this race.

What do you mean, get you through?

Just painkillers. You want me to win, don't you?

Go on, scout.

All right, both teams ready?

Take your marks.

I'm OK.

What happened? Are you OK? Look, I'm fine, Connor. Stop fussing. You fell. We

need to get you to the doctors.

Right, back off. Leave it. I'm dealing with it.

Look,

I've just twisted my ankle, OK? I'm fine. You're not fine.

Did you black out?

I don't remember. OK, let's give her some room.

Sorry,

I promise I will leave you next time.

I've got it.

I'm not leaving her.

Your mind was on other things, but you're here now.

I'm ready to let go that I

hear your voice and centuries of misery can't stop me. I know

the night is young, but tomorrow we might not be.

All I ask is that you lie to me Tell me they can't stop me

I'd make no mistakes.

I'd write all the songs. I'd meet all the good.

It was beautiful now. It was miserable then. I'd tell them how this all turned

out in me. I could step back in time. I'd make no mistakes.

I'd write all the songs. I'd meet all the good. It was beautiful now.

No. Oh, typical.

Just want to do something right for once.

Do you know how hard it is to set up a conference call in America?

And who knew that New York is five hours behind time anyway?

Brilliant. Isn't he great?

What a star.

Fantastic.

Well,

apparently Mr Chalk's got some spotty toddler hidden away in his classroom.

Well, I can go and find Mr Chalk, if you like.

No, no, no need. It's fine.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, it's fine, it's fine.

In your face.

Told you Havelock would pummel you.

Give her some space.

What's happened?

I don't know.

The rest of you to the hall now, please.

Are you okay?

I said no.

I'm fine, I'm fine.

Aren't you going to say anything?

She's taking drugs.

And he knew.

What's she taking?

Just painkillers.

Don't try and take her away from us. She's fine.

No, I'm not.

I mean it.

Did you see her face when she was running? She was, like, possessed or

something. Leave it out, man.

Cutting blood out there. Who cares?

Good. Obviously.

Nice one, Scout.

Me and Phoenix are thinking cinema and chips later. Do you fancy it?

My mum.

Oh, yeah, of course.

Are you actually going to meet her, then?

Are you going to get her anything, like a getting out present?

Yeah, yeah, I suppose I should.

Audrey, can I leave you to deal with it?

So,

you were prepared to turn a blind eye just to make sure you won?

What were you thinking of, Jared?

She wanted to run.

She said they were just painkillers, not illegal last time I looked.

So you knew she was in pain and you still made her run? It's not my fault

lied to me. I'm not a psychic.

Besides, shouldn't we be thinking about liberty here, not shouting the odds? How

dare you accuse me of... We need to get her to hospital.

If she's not going to tell us exactly what she's taken, then we'll... I've got

rheumatoid arthritis.

That's why I took the pill. I've got arthritis.

You're happy now?

Hey. How'd the race go?

What's wrong?

Just an annoying friend.

Oh.

I don't know why I bother with him.

Him being... No -one to love him.

Yeah, it looks like it.

Come on, then. What did he do?

Well, you try and be nice, but they look right through you.

Well, maybe you keep trying. Sometimes perseverance pays off.

You're a bloke, so... Loving?

Dick.

You know what?

We should have a girly night sometime this week.

What do you think?

How long have you known?

A while.

I always knew it was going to happen. It's hereditary.

I wish you'd told me this morning. I would never have pushed you into

How does your mum feel about it, knowing you've got it too? She must be worried.

She would be if I told her.

Which is why I haven't. And you can't either.

Have you seen Denise anywhere?

No. What's up?

She put concealer on her spot -ridden daughter's face and dropped her off at

childminder's. Tell me you're kidding.

They're mugging her. You have to look after her in a class full of kids.

And why couldn't Denise look after her? Because she's far too busy and important

today. If Michael finds out you had a kid in class, he will go berserk.

This is too much, Daniel. You need to draw a line.

I should have drawn a line ages ago.

I worry about poor Cheryl, I really do. Well, you need to talk to Denise.

Don't worry, sweetheart. Uncle Dan will be there in a minute.

Glad to hear it, Uncle Dan.

I can explain, Mr Burnham.

I called your mum and she's just arrived.

You didn't tell her, did you?

No, but I think it's about time you did.

It's not good for you to be bottling things up when she needs to know.

Are you OK?

I'll leave you two to talk.

Why haven't you been taken to hospital?

I refused to go.

What? I've got what you've got.

You haven't been taking my pills, have you?

Oh, why would you do that?

Those meds are dangerous and you took them just because you thought you had

arthritis? No, I know I'm right. The pain in my knee's been there for ages

it's not going away.

It doesn't look swollen to me.

It doesn't sound like arthritis to me and I would know.

Sorry, Mum.

I've really messed up.

I've messed up everything.

I went to the press about Havelock.

I thought I could force change because I need options.

If I can't run, I won't be able to get into uni.

I want you to go to uni.

Athletics or no athletics?

I want a place here, but that'll never happen now.

What have I done?

I can't believe Mr Bernal.

Yeah, me neither.

What are you going to do?

I don't think so. This is your problem.

I mean, what kind of mother does make one a child to cover up spots?

But I can explain.

Yeah, bad ones.

I know I don't look good, but I'm not a bad mum.

I'm trying my best.

Just go through it for me. I'm begging you. Just this one last time.

Please. It's really ridiculous.

Did you not think for yourself when he asked you?

You know you need qualifications to look after a baby, don't you?

Well?

Sorry, Mr Byrne.

Well, sorry doesn't really cut it, does it?

This is a classroom, not a creche.

Added to which, this child could be sick. God knows with what.

I mean, it could be contagious.

Yes, thank you. Mr Chalk no longer requires your services. Off you go.

What about you, Janice?

You shed any light on the situation, seeing as it's your daughter?

I got a call from the childminder to come pick her up.

Daniel, what were you thinking?

I don't know.

You're here to teach, not to babysit.

Look, don't be too hard on him. He was only doing me a favour.

Yeah, and displaying very bad judgement into the bargain.

I know, and I'm sorry we both are.

Please don't punish him for being nice.

That's so.

Can I take it to the doctors?

We had an appointment. It's in 40 minutes.

That's so, Mummy.

Is that OK?

What do you mean, is that OK? Of course it's OK. You're her mother. She's sick.

Off you go.

I'll tell Lorraine.

Tell her I'm sorry it'll never happen again. Just go.

Shame on you.

I don't have to listen to any more of your crazy accusations.

What has got into you? Me.

When I left Havelock, I said things I shouldn't have said, but I knew you

about the pupils.

Now... Now what?

Stuff the kids.

As long as you come out on top.

I beg your pardon?

You have made Liberty Gordon think she has nothing to offer except her running.

You have crushed that girl's self -esteem.

Is that so?

Yes, it is. And that's why she took those pills. So she could compete in

of crippling pain.

Yeah, yeah, that's right. That's all my fault, isn't it? You have acted

despicably. You're trying to settle some old score because I didn't want you

teaching at my school. Well, I'm warning you.

Stay out of my face or I will make your life a living hell.

What are you playing at?

Sorry. You and McFall.

Whose idea was it? Yours or hers?

Idea about what?

Oh, don't play dumb.

I know she put you up to it. The article.

She didn't. I'm sorry.

Oh, sorry doesn't cut it.

Because now everybody's blaming me.

I didn't know you that right. She never told me.

And that lot, they were laughing at me already, looking down their noses and

this. Now you go and jump ship.

I thought you didn't want me to have one. I don't!

I don't ever want to set eyes on you again! Oh, no.

No, I don't think so.

You're not getting away with it that easy.

Why does Mr Finch allow his children to witness the trial of Tom Robinson?

Oh, come on, you should know this.

Is she OK?

Something to share?

Anybody?

So that they could see that truth knows no colour. Now, while his approach was

out there, his motives were highly ethical.

I can't believe I've been witch -hunted like this.

I haven't done anything wrong.

I don't deserve this.

I've done nothing wrong.

I'm a good person.

Please, let me go.

You have to tell them.

You have to call the paper and tell them you were wrong.

Gerard didn't play where he was going.

Threatening and stormed off. He'd lost it. Completely lost it.

If he has touched so much of the hair in her head... Pull him down!

Whoa, whoa, okay. Take it easy.

I want it out.

I know you're all in on it.

No, we're not in on anything. I just want to make sure the liberty... I won't

let you bring me down.

I didn't know she was ill. I didn't make her take those drugs.

You can't pin it on me.

Gerard, we're not trying to pin anything on you. She never told me.

I'm not a mind reader. No one is blaming you. Shut up. Shut up!

You're the worst of them all.

You're under such a lot of stress.

You're a good man.

A good teacher.

I was.

I was a good teacher.

But when you've got league tables and inspectors and all the rest of the...

Stupid bureaucracy that exists now. I know.

I know. I feel for you.

Believe me, there are some days when I don't know how we do it.

After all these years of hard work, I just wanted to get a retirement.

I deserve a good pension.

And if this damn place hadn't come along, I would have made it. I would

there.

I can't do it anymore.

I've tried.

I've tried so hard.

Remember your essays, first thing Monday.

A thousand words, minimum.

We smoke.

I still think you're crazy.

It's not going to work, is it?

No.

I love how you've really given it your best, though.

It's too hard. I can't keep everyone happy.

You're giving up just like that?

I thought we actually had something pretty good. No, we do. It's just... Too

much effort.

I'm trying to help you.

If you want things to change, you have to make them change.

I guess running away is the easiest option.

Just didn't think that'd be the one you'd take.

OK, thank you very much.

There's a cab outside waiting for you.

Take care, Gerard.

Give Liberty a play for you.

She deserves it.

We'd be delighted to accommodate you here at Waterloo Road.

If you're still interested.

Good. I feel awful.

Can we just go home?

No. We're getting you to a hospital and we're going to get you tested.

The sooner we get the ball rolling, the sooner... Maybe I don't want to know.

Or do you?

You'd rather stay in the dark.

They say I've got a fright. If they do, we'll deal with it.

Right then.

Let's go.

See you tomorrow.

Um, wait a minute.

Can you get me out of the car?

We came looking for you earlier.

I'm sorry.

I'm not normally a snitch, OK?

It's just, you know, you were a cow and... Believe it or not, I'm not

like that.

For the record, I'm not a druggie.

It's going to be OK.

Yeah. And thanks.

So, are you coming, then?

I'm all right. Mum will be here in a minute.

OK.

So, you realised I was right about Liberty?

Well, Gerard asked me to enrol her.

He must have really given up.

Couldn't do what you do in a million years.

No, you're not.

That's why I've booked you a doctor's appointment.

It's tonight.

You can barely walk on it. I'm not taking no for an answer.

What?

Really?

And while we're there, we can see what it makes as you're blacking out like

as well.

See?

Not that I just have an old mare after all.

You know, we could forget the doctors and go grab a bite to eat.

What are you

doing?

I know it's been a weird day, but I think we're going to be okay.

Yeah?

What's changed?

You all right?

Maybe we could go and get some food tomorrow night?

Let's order that Chinese now, eh?

No, thank you.

I'm sorry that I got you into trouble, Mr Burke. I don't care about that.

I care about Cheryl.

Of course, so do I.

Really?

I'm sorry, but what are you trying to say?

I don't want to say it.

You're going to have to step up.

OK? Right, yeah. You put her in the same clothes four days in a row. What's

that? You gave her cold pizza for breakfast more often than I care to

Lost her in the park when you're on your mobile.

Getting me to babysit every other night so you can go out. What is that?

There's plenty more.

Why are you being so mean?

Because I've sat back long enough and I can't do it anymore.

I care about that little girl.

Yeah, and I love her to pieces, what you're trying to say.

I'm saying... I don't know.

Look.

I'm sorry that I put you in a bad position today.

Well, I was only trying to prove myself to Miss Donegan.

I swear on my life it'll never happen again.

It's okay.

Come on. It's all right.

Please. Please, Dave.

I'm sorry, babe. I can't.

Just thought, you know, after... We had fun, right?

Yeah, we did.

You can't just, you know, and then leave.

I'm not saying we can't do it again.

Just gotta be somewhere.

Hi, Sian.

I was wondering when you were coming home.

I thought maybe we could do that.

Girlie night tonight?

Call me back, okay?

You cow.

What? Sending those texts.

Don't know what you're talking about.

You sick?

Pretending to be my mum? Why would you even do that?

It was just a laugh.

I didn't think you'd go all intense about it. I didn't even think you'd fall

it.

Well, I wouldn't want them to go away, thank.

Just wait till everyone finds out what a sick... Firstly, do you really want

people knowing what an idiot you are?

And secondly, I'll deny it all because you've got no proof.

The text?

Binned the phone.

Well, it's been a fun day, hasn't it?

See you, Lisa.

Hey.

On your own, then?

I did try.

Well, I would have thought you could convince anybody to do anything.

One smile would do it for me.

Would you like me to help you unpack your things?

No.

But a young thing like you shouldn't have to deal with an old man's undies.

I'm sure if you just give Michael a little bit more time... That's the one

I don't have.

What do you mean?

I'm so sorry.

Do you want to make a dying man happy?

I... Oh, don't worry. It's nothing saucy.

I want to see Michael before I die.

I'm sure he will come when he knows how serious your situation is. But I want to

make peace.

I don't want his pity.

But... Bring him here.

Promise you won't tell him I'm dying.

The child went home alone.

Oh, no.

This has gone out all wrong, eh?

Have you not dropped her in it, have you? No. The last thing Janice needed

social sniffing around.

You can take a stupid job and you can shove it.

Janice? Miss Mulgrew, you have to face fact.

Drinking is making you extremely sick. Do you know what? You're just like the

rest of them. You think I'm something, but we can't do that. I'm your girl. I

want to be in your life. Can't you see?

You are so, so selfish.

Get off me. What is it with my mum? She's a total nutjob, just like you.

I couldn't let him go. It wasn't his fault.

Do you have any idea how serious this is, Janice?

It won't happen again.
