I'm gonna have a baby.

I'm not gonna steam in,
I'm not gonna take over.

I know I've been guilty
of that in the past.

I want you to be free
to handle this how you want to.

This is Paul, Rebecca's dad.

They're divorced,
in case you were wondering.

I wasn't, but thank you for clarity.

- What's this?
- A questionnaire.

Where to go on a date,
if you wanted to.

Do you know how much it's worth now?

Over a million.

I've had an offer to sell the brewery.

You don't want to be
without these, would you?

When he's in Manchester,
his music reminds him of home.

But when he's here, he doesn't wear 'em,

because home
doesn't feel like home anymore.

- After I walk, I go to school.
- Not today.

- It's half term, remember?
- Half term.

Mm, you're going camping
with your dad in two sleeps' time.

- But not today.
- No. Today's a Manchester day.

We'll do something good, I promise.

I just need to talk to Rebecca, yeah?

Hi. It's me. I was just calling to see
if you got the books I sent yesterday?

Yeah, I got them,
and the ones before that.

Well, I put Post-it Notes
in the stuff I thought was useful.

This is you letting me do it
my own way, is it?

Sorry, Mum. I've got to go.

Fine.

Hmm.

Come on.

All right, Mark. Is my dad here?

Be careful.

Dad!

I've got some news. Good news.

And I want you to be the first to know.

Will this take long?
'Cause if it rains again on that trunk,

I'll be bucking it for days.

I've always wanted to do this.

What?

I've had an offer. For the brewery.

From a company based in London.
That's the opening bid.

We're having, uh, exploratory talks.

Now I know why you wanted me
to put that chain saw down.

I know, I can't believe it either.

And there's a job for me
in London if I accept.

Not that anything's been decided, but,

if I do sell,
I'll see you and Alison right.

I just wanted to talk to you first.

What do you want me to say?

How about, "Well done?"

How about, "It's not yours to sell?"

Is that it?

Dad! Dad!

Take that visor off, would you?

It's like trying to negotiate
with Darth Vader.

There's nothing to negotiate.
'Cause you're not doing it.

You gave it to me. I made good on it.

If you wanted to control
what I did, it wasn't a gift.

So, if I gave you your dead mother's
wedding ring, would you sell that too?

I haven't decided to sell yet!

I told you, we're in exploratory talks!

You keep saying that like it means
something "Exploratory talks,"

"Artisan bread," "Rustic furniture."

Do you know what? It's not the visor.
You are Darth Vader.

You begged me to take that place on!

Because I thought
you understood it like I did!

I spent my life building up that brewery.

- I never sold out.
- No, you didn't.

Remind me when it was you were made
a seven-figure offer for the brewery.

Nobody ever made me an offer
because they knew what I'd say!

Oh, well, we'll have to take your word

for your imaginary response
to this imaginary offer.

Success doesn't suit you, you know?

No! My success doesn't suit you!

That's what this is really about!

You know, if you ever want
to swap children for a while,

I'm open to offers for
a stroppy 11-year-old.

I've raised a daughter already, thank you.

And she's dropped out of Uni
to have a baby.

And she keeps hanging up on me. So,
you might want to think about that offer.

Stop doing that. You're a brilliant mum.

You still haven't filled
in my dating questionnaire.

Yeah.

I've just been busy.

How about we all go out somewhere,
you, me, and Joe?

Lyme Park? Peak District? Arndale Centre?

Not a date, just two mates.

Yeah, that sounds nice.

Tomorrow?

I'm seeing Paul later. Let me just talk
to him and see what he thinks.

Oh, no, he can't come.
I haven't got room in the van.

It's just if you're gonna be spending time
with Joe, I think it's important I ask.

I was joking.

I know what you meant.

I knew you were joking.

I'm a tough crowd.

So, I was thinking, uh,
that corner for the dining tent

and that will still leave room
for the emergency gazebo next to it.

Where would we be
without an emergency gazebo?

Nobody wants damp children on the loose.

Thought we're gonna let the kids
dig a hole and let nature take its course.

Well yeah, but my son and nature
are not the best of friends, sadly.

- That's why I set up the group.
- I'm only messing.

Hopefully it won't get too Glastonbury
after one night's camping.

Well, you found a brilliant spot here.

- Joe's going to absolutely love it.
- Aww, good.

Can't be easy only having him at weekends.

Oh.

It works, you know?

Well, here's to the awesome outdoors

Indeed.

- That's the name of our group.
- Right.

As we get back in touch with the rough
and tumble of the natural world.

I've got the vegetarian options covered

and I'm bringing a sneaky Prosecco.

Oh. Joe's more of a Guinness man,
if I'm being honest.

Hold that thought, Sarah.

Ah, shit. Got to dash.

It all looks great, Sarah.

Sorry. Sorry I'm late.
I forgot we were doing this.

I was in a field
with a chemical toilet and--

It's fine. Come in.

Printed agenda, eh? All right.

I thought if we're gonna do this
once a fortnight…

But it helps me, at least,
to have it written down.

Yeah, no. Good idea.

Um, I sent Rebecca
some of my old pregnancy books.

- Do you know if she started reading them?
- Maybe.

She hasn't played the DVD yet,
or filled out the birth plan.

She doesn't answer when I ask her.
So I just thought you might know. Um…

I've got an essay deadline,
so I was wondering

if you would be able to have Joe
for an extra night next month.

- I've put the date down.
- Yep. Yeah, yeah. Thanks.

Um… how has he seemed to you
the last few weeks?

Better. Yeah.

Think he's looking forward to the camping.

Yeah, I'm sure he is. Yeah.

There's something else.

The bloke that came to Dad's with me,
that gave me a lift. Ben.

Yeah. Yeah. I remember Ben.

Yeah, he is asking if me and Joe
would like to go out for the day.

Do you think he's all right?

What are you asking me for?

'Cause it involves Joe,
so it involves you.

It's not like he's gonna move in, is it?

No. I don't want to bring someone
into Joe's life

without asking you first,
and I would want the same from you.

He seems like a nice bloke.

Thanks for, uh, letting me know.

All right, Chief!

Hey! Ooh!

What are you reading?

"Sometimes when a man and woman
like each other,

they might kiss because they both
want to and it feels nice."

Picnic tomorrow.

- Picnic tomorrow.
- Mm.

Ben's coming, too. Is that okay?

- Will he like it?
- I think so.

Who wouldn't like a picnic
with us two?

Does Ben like food?

Oh, I see.

There'll be enough food.
Don't worry about that.

Ralph's still out with Katie,
so we're going to have to be quick,

but that doesn't seem to worry you.

I can't concentrate.

At the risk of prompting
one of your terrible jokes,

you might want to come at this
from a different angle.

- Like what?
- Like admitting you're wrong for a start,

and the brewery is Eddie's to sell.

- Hang on a minute--
- And actually listening to him.

You need to go to him and listen.

Ralph. Here you go.
You forgot your sandwiches.

No, I didn't.

- He, uh, forgot his sandwiches.
- No, I didn't.

You talk. I'll listen.

Hey, uh, it's still chucking it down.

Uh, you haven't called back or texted,
so I'm assuming it's off,

but, uh, just give me a ring when you can.
All right, bye.

Oh, you got ready. That's good.

Um…

Right.

See these awards?
I didn't give them to myself.

This brewery won them,
and they got us in the supermarkets.

They do mean something.

I'll get the Brasso
and give them a polish if you like.

- I thought you were here to listen.
- Sorry.

Right. Go on.

I've built the brand,
and now it's worth a few bob.

So if I do sell, I won't be wrecking
place or shitting on the community.

I'll be securing its future.

And that includes Ralph, does it?

You get some London spiv in here,
and he'll be first out the door.

I'm way ahead of you.

The first thing I did was make sure
Ralph's protected

for as long as he wants the job.

So you sold him?
With the fixtures and fittings?

I thought slavery had been abolished.

I've done what needed doing
to give this place a future.

And the people I'm selling to
are proper brewers,

they're not some bunch of city bankers
with a craft-beer fetish.

They're still from London.
I saw a pug in a waistcoat in London,

and that didn't impress me either.

- This is you listening, is it?
- Yes!

- And I still think you're wrong!
- You didn't listen. You heard me out.

That's not the same thing.

- Ralph?
- Is this about my wedding? Best man?

No. No, son. We're not arguing about
who's gonna be your best man.

No. No pressure at all
for you to decide, really.

Whoever you choose, fine by me.

Me too. Me too.

Although, just to be clear,
if it was me, it'd be an honor.

It would be an honor for me too.

I will let you know.

Do you know what, Dad?
You've done me a favor.

All I wanted to do
was talk it through with you,

but you've made my mind up for me.

I'm selling.

I'm moving to London. Thank you.

Oh, God!

I thought we could still have
the picnic at least.

Well, I know just the place.

Oh, Ben.

Ah.

I call it Ancoats Aquarium.

- It's great.
- Yeah.

Where's Joe?

Oh, he went back to his room.

He's a… He's a bit disappointed.

He doesn't respond well to cajoling.

Like his mum.

Why are you smiling?

I thought you'd fallen at the first fence.

You've forgotten
I've lived here for 20 years.

I know the Mancunian law of picnics.

Not just that.

Have you got any colored paper?

Uh, there's probably
some in the craft box.

Craft box. Of course.

I knew you'd have a craft box.

Fuck off.

This kind of picnic.

I brought a coffee in a flask.

Make it an authentic
picnic experience.

Is yours done yet?

Mine is.

Mine is.

Thank you.

That was top picnic work,
by the way.

I put a marshmallow on a stick.
It's pretty basic stuff.

Yeah, but you don't try too hard.

You don't get in his face
every time he doesn't respond.

Probably more to do with laziness
than insight.

- It works, whatever the reason.
- Good.

So, you think there's any chance
of a second date?

We haven't been on a first date yet.

- I hate that word, "Date." Ugh.
- Oh, I see.

So this is like a pre-qualification round,
like the Europa League.

Uh…

Joe's with his dad tomorrow.

So if you're free, you could meet me
at the swings after your tea.

It would be good to do something,
the two of us.

You're going straight away?
You're joking, aren't you?

If I hang around, it would just be
more of the same arguments with Dad.

It'll get poisonous.
This way, it's a clean break.

- Makes sense.
- The sale hasn't gone through.

I don't need to be here
to sort the sale of the brewery.

I got a job waiting for me in London,
Emily's already down there with her mum.

You know what it's like to miss your kid.

What you thinking?

I should have married you
when I had the chance.

You know this doesn't get you
out of camping tomorrow night, don't you?

- I feared as much.
- Oh, come on. It will be a laugh.

A last hoorah. Beers, campfire,
and if you're really lucky,

I'll wear my special shorts.

Oh.

His Spider-Man pants are missing.

Have you checked with Eddie?

Might account for his latest career move.

- Do you think he'll really go?
- I think he really needs to go.

Right.

Better get going.

The delights of a night under canvas
and all of that.

Bye.

Okay, so, Ramesh,
you're going to be mallet holder

for Bill and Ramesh. And, Tia,

you're going to be mallet
holder for Tia, Willow, and Alfie.

Looks great, doesn't it, Joe?

This looks great, doesn't it, Joe?

- Hiya.
- Hi, Paul. Hi, Joe.

So you're in with your chums,
Bill and Ramesh.

So over you go.

Oh, Bill, stand back
when Ramesh is swinging.

- We don't want accidents.
- The arc of my swing

makes a collision with Bill unlikely,
Mrs. Bill's Mum.

Oh, famous last words.

- Oh, hi, Eddie.
- Hiya.

I told him he won't regret it.

I'm already regretting these shorts,
got chafing issues.

Oh, do you want to borrow
some of Bill's Sudocrem?

I'll take my chances, thanks.

Thanks for coming to muck in,

although the muck
is very much metaphorical.

My favorite kind.

I do have
biodegradable wet wipes, just in case.

Right. Where's my tent?

- I'll start pitching.
- Oh, already pitched.

We only have three decent tents
since the Adventure Day incident.

So, I was thinking
you could share with your dad.

My dad? My dad's coming?

- Yeah. Paul didn't tell you?
- No! Paul didn't!

Yeah, uh, sorry.
He's, um, covering Health and Safety.

Not my health and safety.

I told you where I'd be
for emergency purposes only.

This is an emergency.
We need snacks for cinema.

I bought you snacks to take to the cinema.

Nobody takes
their own snacks to the cinema.

- Are you wearing makeup?
- Are you?

- Hi, Alison!
- Hi, Molly. Nice jacket.

- Thanks.
- Have a nice time, yeah?

And straight back to Julie's after.
I don't want you hanging around town.

Julie's dad is picking us up.
You know, like a responsible parent.

Yeah.

I was just, um…

Paying off your daughter. Yeah, I saw.

Gracias, lads.

Don't worry about fire safety, Sarah.

- Soy un bombero.
- Well, lovely.

Oh, Bill, watch the damp
off those twigs, love.

We don't want a night on the inhaler.

If a ten-year-old's tent's
anything like I remember,

I'm sure we'd all appreciate an inhaler.

Do you have any allergies, Eddie?

Uh, only one, and it turns out
I've had it since childhood.

Well done, lads. Good joint effort.

Bit of community spirit
can get anything done, eh?

You're gonna set light to it in a minute,
but, hey.

Right. Big game of football
when it clears up, eh, Maurice?

Eddie, you can be in goal.

Goalkeeper. Good position.

More of an individual
than a member of a team.

- Dad, for God's sake!
- What?

Have you done this thing
before Mr. Joe's Granddad?

Take more than a drop of rain to come
between me and fire, Ramesh.

I invented fire.

Well, I don't think
fire was ever invented,

but it's going to be an impressive
display, for a man of your age.

Just imagine, Ramesh, if the man
who invented fire had a son,

and he decided to share the fire
with his son,

but his son just poured a bucket
of water over it and walked away.

Is this a parable?

- Dad!
- What?

Or what if the father gave his son
one of these sticks of fire.

Well, instead of making the fire stronger

the son just chucked the stick
on the floor and trod on it?

What would you make of that, Ramesh, eh?

What would you think of a son like that?

- Okay. Time for a sing-song, surely.
- Yeah.

Eddie, can you make sure
the Linda McCartney's

stay on the veggie side of the grill.

Oh, I don't know that one. How does it go?

Come on. Joe, come on.

That's it. Good lad.

Do you know what? The one fantasy
that kept me going through childhood

was that I'd been switched at birth,
and you weren't my real dad.

Mine too!

Right, we'll try that again
after we've eaten.

Come on, girls.

- Nice job.
- You're a good goalkeeper.

Aww. Thanks, Alfie.

- Cheeseburger, Joe?
- Have you all got one?

That one is yours there, love.

Oh, right, as long as you know this counts
as your white-bread day, Bill, okay?

Giving him a taste of freedom
as he gets older.

I know that feeling.

How much do we owe you for the burger?

Organic ketchup, Maurice? Guacamole?

In keeping with your continental phrasing.

Help yourselves. You, too, Darren.

This looks good, Sarah.

- Yeah.
- Looks good, doesn't it, Alfie?

- Lovely. Thank you.
- Thank you.

Do you like David de Gea?

Taught him all he knows, mate.

That's the sort of joke my dad would make.

Well, they give you a joke book
at dad school, you see.

Has Joe ever been to Old Trafford?

Um, no. Not yet. No.

Not a big fan of football, are you Joe?
Prefers music and that, see?

Don't you, Joe?

- I've done this before.
- Have you?

Had your tea around a campfire?
I can't remember that.

I've done this before with Ben.

Oh, right. Have you?

Oh, that sounds great. That's great.

I just always feel guilty,
because I am guilty.

And then there's Paul,
who is trying not to feel guilty,

so he's just desperately hoping
that I'm gonna do or say something

that makes him feel vindicated
for leaving in the first place.

Right.

It's like when we broke up.

I found us somewhere to live.

I kept Joe settled at school.
I started a degree.

And Paul-- Paul's had two years, right?
All he's done is move in with my dad.

And Eddie, who's also living with my dad.

- Which one's Eddie again?
- He wants to be judged.

I think he wants to be judged,
because then that way,

it lets him off the hook because
it's me that's made him feel bad.

And I can't say any of this to Paul
because if I did,

then he would get upset
and that would be bad for Joe.

And that's pretty much all I've got
in the flirting locker.

How are you enjoying it so far?

Overwhelmed, to be honest.

I think this is the most
romantic night of my life.

I wouldn't want you missing your pudding
'cause you were too embarrassed

to join in with the other campers.

- There you go.
- Thank you.

Has that man gone yet?

Yeah.

Sorry I didn't warn you
about Maurice being here.

I just thought…

- What?
- Well…

We'd have a sing-along
and bury the hatchet?

Well, it's never too late.

Bet Sarah knows the chords
to "Wonderwall."

I just thought we'd have a laugh
and a drink.

I feel like I did when I was 12.

He always makes me feel like this.

Alfie's a nice kid, isn't he?

Well, they're all nice kids.

I was just kicking a ball around
with him, that's all.

I'm just saying he's a nice kid.

Joe said something earlier.

Something about…

Something that he'd done with Ben.

And I know that the grown-up thing
is to think that it's good

that he has someone in his life
who's nice to him,

but I'm already thinking how long
till he starts calling him Dad.

- That'll never happen.
- Well, why not? Rebecca calls me Dad.

You are her dad,
and her real dad's a wanker.

It's never gonna be like that for Joe.

Nah, is this how it happens? Is this how
he starts slipping away from me?

He loves you, idiot.

Anyone can see that.

He needs you.

Oh, I don't know.

Right.

I think you're mad to go
to London, mate, I really do.

I know.

If I volunteer to take your place
in Maurice's tent,

- will you think again?
- Of course.

Yeah, I was afraid you'd say that.

You got any earplugs and a nose peg?

Oh, listen.

I'm really sorry
if I've heightened family tensions.

I've got chamomile tea bags.

I-- I think it's brightening up.

Oh.

I know I'm fussy. I know I'm ridiculous.

Pot of herbal tea's hardly gonna build
a bridge across a family rift, is it?

No, I'm laughing because you're always
trying to make things better.

You're always trying to be positive.
And that's no bad thing.

Okay. Well.

Thank you. Thank you.

When you said we could get something
to eat, I didn't think you meant, like…

Yeah.

Fruit and chocolate's
just exactly what I wanted.

- You all right with this?
- Yeah, of course.

What could be nicer?

I've never really done
this sort of thing before.

Ever.

Really?

Yeah.

Maybe, like, 25 years ago
at Keswick Youth Club.

I don't think that counts.

I only found out I was on a date
when he gave me a love bite.

- Well, what about Paul?
- No.

We'd known each other ages.

I already had Rebecca by then, so…

We just kind of fell into it.

What about you?

No, I've never been on a date with Paul.

Although, I feel like
I might have done after tonight.

All right.

Mm.

Tell Paul I miss him.

- All right. It's just Joe checking in.
- Aww.

He's camping with his dad,
and his granddad and his uncle.

Not that he's from
an overprotective family or anything.

Any news?

- Yeah. A picture of a burger.
- Mm-hmm.

And a photo of a tent peg.

That looks like a top night!

Yeah.

- You jealous?
- No.

I'm having a good time.

What?

I'm having a good time, too.

- You sound surprised.
- I am.

I'm surprised by all of this,
to be honest.

If my daughter comes out the cinema,
I will have to let go of your hand.

Understood.

Did you want to come in
for a tea or a coffee?

That would be nice.

That wasn't a euphemism for sex,
by the way.

Okay.

I'd still like a coffee.

Not that I'm ruling sex out
at some time in the future.

Great. I'll bear that in mind.

With you… I mean.

Even better.

- Alison?
- Yeah?

I'm just as nervous as you.

- I doubt that.
- I like you a lot,

and I don't want to mess it up.

Not this early, at any rate.

I mean…

Hi, Mum. Sorry if you're busy.

I just wondered if we could talk.

Yes. Yeah. Sure.

Yeah.

- Night, Rebecca.
- Night, Ben.

I can feel the world turning.

I think that's highly unlikely.

I know what he means, though.

There's something about
lying down on the ground.

I know what he means, too,
but he's not right.

Well, two people can feel
two different ways about something.

It doesn't mean
that only one of them is right.

It's science, Mr. Joe's Uncle.
It's objectively true.

I think you're both experiencing
a praxic hallucination.

Just call me Eddie.

What do you think, Joe? What can you feel?

I can feel sleep.

And so say all of us.

G'night, John Boy.

If I'd known you were coming,
I'd've bought have bought some

Elderflower juice.
I've probably got some Ribena somewhere.

Mum, water's fine. I didn't come
for Elderflower juice…

I guessed that.

…or to interrupt your love life
for that matter.

Look, the evening was over.

It wasn't going anywhere else.

- Believe me.
- Okay. Enough.

Why did you send me the books?

I know they're a bit out of date,
but they helped me.

It's at least a bit less scattergun
than the Internet.

I don't mean why'd you think
they'd be useful?

Why did you send them when you told me
you were gonna keep your distance?

Sorry.

I'm sorry. I couldn't resist.
Was it too much?

I'll back off. I'll back off.

- Why?
- Why…

Why what?

I explained that I didn't want to be
my usual controlling self.

To help you or to help me?

You. I'm doing it for you.
You know that.

I don't buy that, you see, mum.

I've been thinking about it a lot,
and I don't buy it for a minute.

Rebecca, I love you. I'd love…

I'd love to be more involved,
if that's what you want. I just…

I'm just not sure that it is.

I think you're keeping your distance
because you don't approve.

- Because you think I'm making a mistake.
- It isn't that.

- It really isn't that
- But I'm right, aren't I?

You do think it's a mistake for me
to have a baby this early.

Without a partner to help, yes, I do.

Thank you.

Because I know it will be difficult.
Because I did it myself.

- With me.
- Yeah, with you.

- Who you regret.
- No! Never!

No. I don't want you to ever think that!

- I'm not doing this because you did it.
- I know.

You can't blame me for wondering
why you are doing it.

Or for thinking it might be
because of what happened with me and Paul.

Oh, right. I'm having a baby because
I'm upset you and dad got divorced!

No. Not as cut-and-dried as that.
Because of Joe.

I'm having a baby because of Joe?
This gets better and better!

You have an autistic brother,
your family's all broken.

Isn't it possible that on some level

you're trying to create
a new family for him?

What? 'Cause I'll end up looking
after Joe one day,

so I might as well bang out
a couple of babies

so I've got something to do
in the quiet times?

You know I don't mean it like that.
Come on!

Just tell me you're ashamed of me.

I could never be ashamed of you!
Come on.

Look, I do think
you're making your life harder

right, by having a baby at your age
on your own.

But if you think for one second
that means I don't support--

Look, I would never, ever abandon you.

Right. Well, that's very generous of you.

Oh, come on.

I'll sleep in Joe's room.

Becks…

- Hey.
- Morning.

I'm gonna throw caution to the wind.

Can you spare me a drop of your coffee?

- Oh, right. Yeah, of course.
- Thank you.

Live a little.

- There you are.
- Thank you.

I hope you don't mind me saying,
but I was watching you and Joe just now.

It was lovely.

Hmm.

Why?

I was doing my yoga.

Oh, no. I me…

No, I mean…
Why did you think it was lovely?

Um, because you just look right together,

and you both had your feet
in the same water.

Thanks.

And I wouldn't ever do anything like that.

I don't really do spontaneity.

Yeah, it's overrated, Sarah.

What with Bill's eczema,
and me being a bit of a fuss-womble.

It takes a bit of practice.
That's all. Go on. Have a go.

Yeah, I will. Later on.
When I'm on me own.

Well, that won't be very spontaneous now,
would it?

Now, go on. Say the first thing
that comes into your head.

- Um…
- Go.

Really?

Um… Okay. I will have a go. Um…

- Go on.
- How about, um…

- I can't!
- 'Course you can!

Go on! 'Course you can!

How about, would you like to meet up
sometime for a drink or for a walk?

There you are. See?

Would you?

- Would you like to meet up sometime?
- Oh, right!

Do you think… No, no.
Well, what can I say? Of course.

Yes! 'Course.

That's… That's it. Right.
Now, we're gonna make this

into the tightest sausage roll
you've ever seen.

All right. Like this.

That's it.

♪ I was young and I had a mouth on me ♪

Right.
Nobody leaves this campsite

until you two find the last tent peg.
Spread out.

♪ They said there's someone
That I should see ♪

♪ A world of shelves opened up for me ♪

♪ A kite dragged along a lowly breeze ♪

♪ We were young and I had a mouth… ♪

Ah. There he is.

I'll, uh, be on my way later,
so I've come to say goodbye.

- Right.
- And give you these.

Thanks!

You have one. I have one.

And then we can toast each other.

It's a great idea. That's great.

Um… just for the record,

not that I really care,

but was I ever in the running
for best man?

No.

Oh.

- So, is it Maurice?
- No.

Even better.

Thought I'd find you here.

Well, need to take it in
while I still can.

I'm sure they'll let you come
and have a look around.

For a small fee.

Just out of interest…

what kind of son did you want?

- You don't get to choose.
- Yeah.

But if you could choose,

'cause I know I can't give you
what you want.

I can never be that son.

Maybe what you mean is,
I can never be the dad you want.

I just look around at everything
I've achieved here,

and I look at how hard I worked,

and not even a pat on the back.

Christ's sake, not this again.
I've explained.

No. You haven't.

Not really.

I mean, it just feels like you're always
looking for reasons to disapprove.

You don't want to praise me, so…

you look for reasons to bury me instead.

I don't know how you've done it.

What?

This.

Built it up.

I don't know how you've done it,
and that bothers me.

I don't get it.

- You don't get it or me?
- Both.

I remember when you were a kid,
I could help you in maths

until you were ten-year-old,
and then you lost me.

I couldn't help you.

You were a bright kid,
and I was proud of you,

but you weren't interested
in the things I was,

and I wasn't interested
in the things you were,

and that's natural.

You grew up, and we were different.

So why did you get me back here?
Doing this?

Because I thought it'd bring us
closer together, and it did for a bit.

You shouldn't have given it to me
if you didn't want me to change it.

No. Fair enough.

It's not easy being your son, you know.

I'm sorry your mum died.

So am I.

She could give you what I can't.

As far as she was concerned,
everything either of her children did

was absolutely wonderful.

Yeah.

- And I'm not built like that.
- You don't say.

But we were a good team.

You know, she told you you were brilliant.
And I kept your feet on the ground,

made sure you didn't get
too big-headed.

- Yes. You were good at that.
- Oh, for Christ's sake, Eddie!

I'm sorry you don't think
I'm proud of you, because I am.

What you've done is brilliant,
but I just don't want you to sell it.

You've said that
several times, several ways.

I don't want you to sell it
'cause I don't want you to go.

I like having you here.

All right?

Why couldn't you have said that?

'Cause I don't want
to hold you back either.

Right.

Well, I see.

You won't.

You haven't.

Thanks, mate.

Listen. We can FaceTime
when I'm in my new house.

Thank you.

Thanks for the lift.

Rebecca? I'll give you a call.

- Yeah.
- Come here.

Becks.

You said you wanted to know what
I really thought, and I told you.

Do you know what you really think?

- Socks.
- Socks.

- Pants.
- Pants.

Lucky key to nowhere.

Lucky key to nowhere.

Watch that doesn't work.

Watch that doesn't work.

- It's only London. I'm not dying.
- I know.

I liked having you here.

- Even when you weren't?
- Yeah.

Especially when I wasn't.
Keeping an eye on dad.

Think he'll be all right?

I've spent a lifetime wondering
if he'll be all right.

It's about time he learned
to stand on his own two feet.

Do you ever see
everybody moving away from here

and leaving you behind and think…

"Could it be me?"

Fuck off.

Come and visit me in London.

Not for a while, but, you know,
once I've forgotten what you're like.

I know you find it hard
to say that you love me.

You've been a mate.

You want me to go over and put them
shelves together in Joe's new room?

Yeah, if you're not too busy.

Probably a two-man job, you know.
I'll come with you.

Huh.

What is it?

Come here.

Can't you settle?

It isn't late, is it?

Well, it is.

It isn't far.

- Hey.
- Hey.

He wouldn't rest.
He wanted to see you.

So…

Well, you know how it is. Here we are.

Right. Right,
was he upset about something?

No. He thought you were.

Oh, thanks. I needed this.

- How was baby class?
- I don't know, it was full of couples.

Has it occurred to you
that you might need your mum?

That way, Joe, with everybody else.
With everybody else.

- Hey, Joe, it's okay.
- Why do you have to be different?

I don't wanna know anything
because something might be wrong.

And if I say that
I don't want a baby like Joe,

then I'm saying that
I don't want Joe as a brother.

- Are you coming to bed?
- Yeah, I'll be up in a minute.

- Sure. In a minute.
- Ben.

- I'm glad your mum's found someone.
- Doesn't it make you sad to say that?

I'm sorry. I'll always be sorry.
