- Your father is a lunatic.
- My dad

did this?
- What that man did to Tom,

it was so awful, Jonah.
- Come here. You're all right.

- Yeah.
- Do you not get it,

Dylan? It's over.

- It doesn't work like that, babes.
- Get off me.

- You'd better go.

No, Jonah, go.

- DOOR OPENS

Reminders of home.

- Ah. You must be Mr Wisniewski.
- But you're not Mrs Fisher, no?

- No, not quite. I'm Chris Mead, the
Deputy Head.

You'll meet the real boss tomorrow.

So I just thought I'd pop in,

and talk you through some of your
duties.

- I'm a caretaker.

- Site manager.
- Fancy name but the same job, no?

- Yeah, more or less.

- Don't worry, I'm all set.

I even have my first repair. An oven
to fix.

- Right, well, I'll let you get on
with it then.

Sorry, I almost forgot,

welcome to Waterloo Road.

- LAUGHTER FROM OUTSIDE

MURMURED CONVERSATION

Oh, look, here he comes.

What took you?
- I'm ready, all right?

- Nothing like trying to impress the
teachers, eh?

- You got a dead body in your bag
there, son?

- It's coursework. We've got an
English deadline today, haven't we?

Physics and Spanish...
- Spare us details.
- Don't know why he bothers.

- I'm getting myself an education.

- Get yourself a dodgy back more like,
the weight of that bag.

- Is that about the job, Dad?
- No, it's a benefit interview again.

- Trying to take your money, Dave?

- I've got to go down and prove I
deserve the pittance they give me.

- Dress up as an asylum seeker.
They'll throw money at you.

- Go on, get out of it, the pair of
you.

- Hey, listen, Dad, I can have a word
about the job with Mr Mead if you
want.

- Nah, he'll just say I haven't got
it.

- What makes you so sure of that?

- Experience, son.

- See you in a bit, Dave.

- Leave 'em.

- How long have you been down here?

- I can't sleep.

- You want some breakfast?

How about you get dressed? Give us a
lift to school?

- I don't much feel much like driving.

- Come on, Dad. It'd do you good.

You haven't been out the house in a
week.

Everyone's asking of you.

Why don't you go and see 'em?
- I'm not in the mood, son.

- I'm trying my best here, Dad.

- The Misanthrope?

- Another play, since you enjoyed our
last excursion to the theatre.

- Oh, is this a musical?
- You what?

- You know, singing, music? Dance?

- Le Misanthrope is a biting satire on
17th-century French aristocracy.

- That's a no, then?

- Looks like you needed that.

- Oh, could use another cup.

- I take it he's on the mend, then.
- You what?

- Tom. Must have his strength back if
he's keeping you awake at night?

- Oh, no, no, no. He's not. We're not.
- Is he still under the weather?

Somewhere nice?
- What?

- Wherever it was you drifted off to.

- Sorry, I don't know where my head
is. Oh, Jonah, is there something you
needed?

- No. Just want to say morning.
- Well, now you've said what you
needed to say

you can make your way to class.

- I think we should do something, the
three of us.

- You can come round to mine.

- Let's go out. Have a bit of fun.

- How come you're the party animal all
of a sudden?

- All right, I've been a bit of a moan
lately, which is why tonight's my
treat.

- Well, if you're paying I'm in.
- Yeah, baby! Jess?

- I suppose. But I get to decide where
we're going.

Standard.

- Surprise test, is it? No wonder the
kids love you(!)

- Yeah, well, I need 50 running off by
lunchtime.
- OK.

- Oh, Chris, aw, how is Tom?

Any idea when he's back?

- No, he still needs more time.

- Oh. But it's been a week now.

- The man was beaten up, Grantly.

- And he has my sympathy, but I have
to cover his classes.

- It's not just you - we're all
covering his classes.

- Yeah, well, covering's all very well
but I'm left doing his worksheets.

- I'm sure that Tom appreciates your
support.

Martin, what can I do for you?
- Just wondered if I could have a
word?

- If it's about your coursework, I've
marked it. Very impressive.
- It's about my dad.

He went for the site manager's job.

I wondered if you heard...
- According to the agency, interviews
were last week.

- He never heard anything.
- We sent letters out.

- Can he still get an interview?
- You'll have to ask the agency.

- Actually, Martin...

The job's already gone.

New site manager started today, I'm
sorry.

- Well, what's the verdict?

- Your oven is broken.

- And what exactly is the matter with
it?

- You have problem with thermostat.

- That's impossible. I've calibrated
it myself.

- Well, you made a mistake.

- I beg your pardon?

- OK, your oven is not hot enough.

I work with this at home.

- I think you'll find my ovens are a
little more sophisticated

than the ones they have in Poland.
- Right.

What makes you think I'm Polish?

- You have an Eastern European accent,
so I just assumed...

- There are 20 countries in Eastern
Europe. Not just Poland.

I'm joking! Of course I'm Polish.

But you shouldn't jump to conclusions.

- OK. Can you fix that quickly,
please? Because I have a class coming
in.

- Are you going to use the oven?

- That's the idea.
- Well, you need another idea.

Either that or a new oven.

- Everyone inside.

Quickly, please.
- Josh, I'm sorry

it happened but ignoring me isn't
helping.

- I'm not ignoring you.
- You've hardly spoke to me.
- Been busy with my dad.

It's not been easy.

- It's been a nightmare at my place.
- Has your dad ran out teachers to
beat up?

- Right, Josh and Nate, come on!

Right, change of plan, gentlemen. If
you just give me a minute.

So start setting up, please.

- Be careful with tools.
- Sorry, mate, didn't understand a
word of that.

- LAUGHTER

I said, be careful with tools.
- Nah, still nothing.

Is it English?

- Why don't you boys get on with your
cooking classes, huh?

- Is he trying to be funny?

- You're stealing jobs from people who
live here, you know that?

- I didn't steal this job. And I live
ten minutes from school.

- Yeah, but for how long?

As soon as you make enough, you'll be
off home, won't you?

- Mind your own business, OK?

- Blokes who live here can't afford to
feed their families

cos your lot are undercutting
everybody.
- Who are these blokes?

- My dad for one. Yeah, you nicked his
job.
- Yeah, give it back.

- I'm sick of your mob coming round
here and

you're nicking all the work.

- I don't like being called thief.
- You don't like it, you can go!

- Excuse me! What is going on here?

- Stole his dad's job.

- I warning you. I'm not a thief!

- That is enough. I think you should
leave, Mr Wisniewski.
- What?

why should I go?
- Because I'm telling

you to. Thank you very much.

- It were a right mess so I
reorganised it, it's much simpler.

- Great.

- Oh, what are you doing out of class?

- Ronan's showing me the new filing
system he came up with last night.

He's put it all in alphabetical order.
- Well, he never asked me.

- You went home early. Hairdressers,

remember? I didn't think you'd mind.

Oh, and I sorted out Mr Budgen's
photocopying as well, Janeece.

- Oh, oh...

- I want to make a complaint!

- Ah, is there a problem?

- Yes! Discrimination.

That's the problem.

- So what's the plan, then?

- What do you mean?
- Can't let the Pole get away with
that.

We need to do something.

- I just did. Sorry, did you not hear
me?
- That were just words.

- Done the trick, though, didn't it?
He got kicked out the class.

- Big deal. He's still got your dad's
job.

- Yeah, I know.
- Listen, your dad's a top bloke.

He's got loads of respect around the
estate.

We just need to stand up for him.

- All right, how do you reckon we do
that?
- Don't know.

But I'm not letting Dave down.

- Not letting Dave down?

Have you heard yourself? He's not even
your dad.

And if anyone's standing up for him,

it's me. All right?

- Look what I picked up in the office.
Grantly's surprise test.

- For year nines. It's no use to us.
- Be handy for the year nines. Make

a bit of cash selling the answers.

- Cutting it a bit fine, aren't we?
- Sorry, Jonah,

I wasn't aware that my timekeeping was
any of your business.

- I was just making a joke, miss.

- Yes, well, now you can just sit
down.

- Did you know that Martin Dowling was
a racist? He hates the Poles.

- That's enough.

- It kicked off. He told the new
caretaker to go back to his own
country.

- Martin had no right to say that.

- He's got the right to free speech.
- Not free speech if you're attacking
a minority.

- Expressing an opinion isn't the same
as attacking someone.

- In my experience, Jonah, it often
is, and I'd rather not be talking
about this now.

- Well, why not?
- Yeah, miss, why not?

- Because it's not relevant.
- It's pretty relevant to me.
- Right. OK.

If you want to talk about this then we
will all talk about it...

but in Spanish.

- SHE SPEAKS IN SPANISH

Ruby, can we have a chat?

- Yeah, I was going to come and find
you, actually. I had a few problems
with our site...

- Er...Mr Wisniewski says that Martin
Dowling was out of order this morning.

- He wasn't the only one. Mr
Wisniewski should learn to rein in his
temper.
- The boy started it.

- Doesn't mean you can threaten him.
- He insulted me!

- OK.
- I hardly think so.
- Let's just try and stay calm.

- I am calm, unlike some of us.
- Lukas says that Martin told him to
go back home,

that he's stealing British jobs.
- His father has lost out on that job
-

understandably he's upset.
- That's no excuse.

You should've told Martin that.

- I agree with him.
- Sorry, what are you saying?

- I think that Mr Wisniewski IS
stealing jobs from British workers.

- WISNIEWSKI SNORTS

- Unbelievable.

- Ruby, can we talk?

- You sympathise with right-wing
views?

- Course not. But I don't see the
point of censoring them.

- We can't let them run around making
hate speeches.
- Look,

hate cannot drive out hate.

Only love can do that.
- That's a little bit naive of you,
Jonah.

- Martin Luther King didn't think so.
- You give these people a platform,

you give them profile.

- So we just ignore them, then?

- Yeah, so what's wrong with that?

- If you ignore people they only get
louder.

- So that's what this is all about.

You're upset because you think I'm
ignoring you.

- I don't think...

I know you've been ignoring me. All
week.

- Jonah, please...

- Why are you doing this, Cesca?

- Because what happened last week was
a mistake...

..and it can't happen again.

- Well, it didn't feel like a mistake
to me.

You've got to start being honest about
us.

- Jonah...

You have to understand - there is no
us.

- Something is happening between you
and me, Cesca.

How long are you going to pretend that
it isn't?

Just give me a shout when you're
ready, yeah?

It was going fine then she just backed
off.

- Sounds like she's playing you, mate.

- She's not like that.

I think she's just scared of how she
feels about us.
- Mate, you

are starting to sound like a girl.

- You're meant to be giving advice,
not slagging me off.
- It'd help if I knew who she is.

- Heard you've got Budgen's test.
- Cost you a fiver.

- I've only got three quid.
- Better start studying then.

Look, stop over-thinking it. Bottom
line - do you like her?

- Have you listened to a word I've
said? Course I like her.
- Well, find out how she feels.

- Just ask her?
- Ah, I'm bored with this. Oh, here
comes trouble.

- Oi, where's that master document?

- What you talking about?
- The photocopying.

There's only 50.
- That's what it said on the Post-it.
- I should have 51. Where's the master
document?

- One got jammed. I had to bin it.
Sorry.

- You're up to something. I know it.

- Pity you're not smart enough to
prove it.

- Don't you think we're blowing it out
of proportion?
- Which part?

Martin making racist remarks or you
condoning them?

- But Martin only expressed an
opinion.
- Ruby,

can't you see that holding these kind
of views could be seen as racist?

- No, no! That's slander.

I resent being called a racist.

- You might want to drop the whole
"British jobs for British workers".

- I think employing migrant workers
over local people is unfair.

- You see, saying things like that in
school can have serious consequences.

- Right, OK. We're not exactly on the
verge of a race riot, but OK.

- You know what, Ruby? We're done.

You'll apologise to Mr Wisniewski.

- Because I have an opinion?

- Yeah, one based on ignorance.

- Do you know that my John lost his
building firm last summer?

It was 20 years hard work down the
drain like that. And you know why,
Chris?

Because he employed local tradesmen
and he paid them decent wages.

In the end, he couldn't compete with
migrant workers undercutting him.

We lost the lot.

So unlike you, I know what I'm talking
about.

- Sir, you better get downstairs.

- Everyone, let's keep the noise down,
please.

What's going on?
- You see?

- Don't look at me. I didn't do it.

- You two.

My office now.

- David...

David.

Um... Find Jonah Kirby for me and tell
him to come and see me.

- OK, miss.
- Thanks.

Don't know why we're in here. It
weren't even us, sir.

- You two were the ones having a go at
Mr Wisniewski this morning.

- Doesn't mean we tagged his office.
- Martin, have you got anything to say
about this morning?

- Well, we had words, sir.

- Pretty harsh words. You accused him
of stealing your dad's job.

- Yeah, but I just don't think it's
fair, miss.

- Is that why you painted the slogan
on his window?

- Kyle just told you - that weren't
us.

- I'm going to be keeping an eye on
you two. Off you go.

Hey! And stay away from Mr Wisniewski.

- So what are you going to do?

- Let's get Martin's dad in.

- Thanks for coming.

You were right, I have been avoiding
you, and that's not been fair.

I just wanted to explain...
- You don't need to explain anything.

- No, Jonah, please, just let me
finish.

It was stupid of me to ask you to the
house like that.

It gave the wrong impression.
- So why did you?

- Jonah, please don't make this any
more difficult than it already is.

- When we kissed, it felt right.

Look, I know what the risks are for
you

and I know how scary it must be,

but if you want it enough, then we'll
find a way to make it work.

- The thing is...

what happened to Tom...

Mr Clarkson...

it's brought us closer together, and I
want to make a go of it.

- So you're in a relationship after
one date? I don't believe that.

- Well, I'm sorry, Jonah, but...

you're just going to have to trust me
on this. It's for the best.

- Eventful morning?

- It'll all blow over.

- I wouldn't bet on it. The entire
school's talking about this.

- Yeah, well, they'll be talking about
something else tomorrow.

- Ah, I take it you heard about Ruby's
performance this morning?

- Yep. Spent all of second period
discussing it. Nice work, Ruby(!)

- For goodness sake,

you know, all I did was deal with the
situation in my class.

It was a very volatile incident.

- It's not how you dealt with the
incident, Ruby.

- What is it about?
- You think Mr Wisniewski shouldn't
work here because he's Polish.

- Not cos he's Polish, because he's
not British.

- Oh, dear God, Ruby.
- Well, excuse me for being patriotic.
- No, there's a fine line.

And you should be careful what you say
around these kids.

- As a teacher, I would expect a
little bit of support from my
colleagues.

- Sorry, but I don't stand by any
racists.

- Don't be ridiculous, Cesca.
- Oh, really?

Well, maybe I should go back to where
I came from then!

- Is that what you think about me?

- Your views are a tad extreme.

- I see.
- Ruby...

- So what you're saying is you've got
no proof that my son did this?
- It's not just the graffiti.

I'm afraid Martin has expressed some
extreme opinions today.

- Yeah, well, he's a smart lad. He
knows his own mind.

- Oh, so presumably you don't share
his views on immigration?

- We're not talking about me, are we?

- All right, maybe Martin...

You can tell us how you came to hold
these views.

- How do you mean, sir?
- Have you been reading books about it
lately? Websites?

Have you been talking with your mates?

- Maybe he just sees things for how
they really are.

- And how are they exactly?
- It's getting to the stage where it's
not even our country any more.

The foreigners are getting all the
breaks.
- Is that what happened, Martin?

You just woke up and saw things how
they really were?

- Well... My dad's lived in this area
for years,

he's got all the qualifications but he
didn't get an interview.

- OK. I have to warn you that the
school doesn't tolerate

anyone airing the kind of views you
did today...

MR DOWLING SCOFFS

..and if Martin continues to voice
them, we will take action.
- Is that it, then?

- Yes.

Janeece?

- Yeah?
- Can you get the recruitment

agency on the phone for me, please?

- Yeah, of course.

- Shouldn't be allowed in a school.

- Yeah. Total fascist.
- Excuse me?

Who did this?

I mean it! Who is responsible for
this?

Finn? Do you know who did this?

Finn!

- What have you got there?

- Oh, nothing.
- That doesn't look like nothing.
There's a fortune.

Where did you get it from?
- Doesn't matter.

- What do you mean it doesn't matter?

- It's just some money I managed to
save, all right? It's no big deal.

I was thinking maybe I could get you a
birthday present.

- My birthday was ages ago.

- Yeah, I know, but I wasn't about,
was I?

I was thinking maybe we could go into
town.

- OK, well...could we get something
for tonight with it?

- Ooh, yes, I might get myself
something as well!

- It's all right for him. There's no
Poles undercutting teachers.

- Sorry about the job, Dad.
- It's not your fault.

I appreciate you two standing up for
me as well.
- It were Martin's idea.
- Yeah?

Didn't think you had in you. Maybe
you're more like your old man than you
thought!

If you feel strongly about something
you've got to take action, right? Mind
you,

words on a wall only get you so far.

Might have to up your game, make sure
they really get the message.

- Up our game, how?
- Oh, you're a clever lad. I'm sure
you'll think of something.

Proud of you, son.

- So what you going to do now?

- I think we should see how good
Wisniewski is at his job, don't you?

Land of the free!

If we keep this up,

he'll be handing in his resignation.

- You never know - they might just
sack him.

Hope he brought his screwdriver.

Have you got a problem?

- No. No problem.

- It's a right mess this place, innit?
- Yeah. Suppose.

- Shouldn't be allowed. Someone's not
doing their job properly.

- Reckon someone should complain about
it. To Mead.

- Go and tell him that the boys'
toilets is a disgrace. The whole
school's a mess.

- Yeah, I can do that if you want.

- What are you waiting for? Go on.

Ah, it's just some of the kids messing
about, trying to upset you.

- Yes, well, they succeeded.

Who's to say that that wasn't a
teacher?

- I can't see any of the staff pulling
a stunt like this.

- They're busy driving me out the
staffroom.
- Come on, that's over the top,

you were hardly driven out. It's just
that race is...

well, a very sensitive area.

- I made one innocent remark and I'm
treated like the school pariah.

- Mmm. Are you sure it was so
innocent?

- Do you know, I don't know now. But
you're going to call me racist,
though.

- No, I don't think you're racist,
Ruby. Just...

HE CLEARS THROAT Well, a little right
wing sometimes.

- Well, look at you, Mahatma Gandhi(!)

Not exactly famous for your tolerance
and understanding, you know, Grantly.

- Ah, it's true, I hate everyone, but
I hate them all equally.

- Why should I censor my own personal
opinion?

- Look, much as I hate to admit it,
Adanna is right.

Kids are like sponges, they take
everything in,

which is why we have to watch our
mouths.

- You know that I haven't got anything
against Mr Wisniewski. I mean, it's
not personal.

- I know that.
- I'd be mortified if the kids thought
it was.

I mean, I know I make out I don't care
what they think, but I do.

I do.

- Well, if that is the case, you might
want to consider an apology.

Oh, come on, Ruby. Saying sorry -

it's what the British do best.

- It's not just here. They've been
messing up the whole school.
- I appreciate that.

- What? You appreciate it? Well, maybe
you should do

something about it.
- I will.

But for now I'm afraid you're just
going to have to try and rise above
this.

- Are you saying it's my fault?
- Of course not.

You're being targeted but...
- I just have to take it, yeah?

- I'm sorry. I know that it's hard,
but the school needs you to deal with
this.

They won't get away with it, I
promise.

- Coping all right there, mate?

- Was you?
- Don't know what you're on about.

- I mean, if you don't like it, you
can always quit.

- It's a good thing your father didn't
get the job.

- You what?
- Give him time to teach you respect.

- You don't even know my dad.

- You learn a lot about a man from his
son.

Maybe you get your anger from him.

And your cowardice too.

- You want to watch your mouth.

- Got the money now, have you?

- Yeah.
- That's a fiver. Cheers.
- Cheers.

- Nice doing business with you.

- Hand it over.

- Any chance I can get a look at the
answers?

- No chance whatsoever.

- MURMURED CONVERSATION

- Not smart enough, am I?

- If you're seeing Clarkson, how come
no-one in school knows?
- What are you doing?

- There's 600 kids in this school and
they're trained to spot a teacher
romance a mile off.

- I thought we wouldn't talk about
this.
- We're not. We're talking

about you and Tom Clarkson.

- I'd rather we didn't.
- Why? Because your fibbing?

- Jonah, if you keep this up I'm going
to send you to the cooler.
- Why?

Because you're not going out with
Clarkson?
- Josh!

How's your dad?

- He's not great, miss.

- Well, I was thinking of coming up to
visit after school.

Cheer him up a bit.

- OK, sounds great.

- Well, I'll see you soon.

- I don't know about this. We're going
to get caught.

- He wants to get personal - fine.

- Martin?

MOBILE RINGS

Wiktor?

Must be his boyfriend.
- Mr Wisniewski, I... Good God.

You two stay exactly where you are...
Hey! Hey!

What on earth do you think you've been
doing?

- Standing up for people like my dad.

I thought you'd understand.
- Unbelievable.

- You were the one backing me this
morning!

I thought you'd signed up for this and
all.

- I don't know what it is you think I
believe in, Martin,

but it's not this.

- Dad says that if you believe in
something, you stand up for it,

take action.

- Your dad's a moron.
- My dad's not a moron.

- Well, he is if he's encouraging you
to damage school property!

- He's not a moron. You need to take
that back.

Take that back!

- Right, you are in enough trouble as
it is, OK?

- Sir, you don't reckon this test

of yours might be a little easy?

- I'm sure they'll find it
challenging.

- Yeah, well, I heard some of them
speaking before

and they reckon it's going to be a
doddle.

- Is that a fact?
- So I found one of your old ones in
the office.

A year ten test.

So I photocopied 50 just on the off
chance you might need 'em.

- Let's have some fun!

It's not your colour.
- What you on about? That's perfect
for me,

that.
- This is more you.

- Do you reckon?

- Yeah, the colour's great and you've
definitely got the figure for it.

- Well, I've not got the money for it
right now.

- If you like it, I'll get it for you.

- I could try it on.

- Yeah, yeah, let's try it on, come
on.

- What can I say, Ruby?

Well done.
- Yes, thank you.

I'm well aware of my part in this.

- Your part? Being modest there, Ruby.
You pretty much caused this.

- No, this isn't Ruby's fault. This is
Martin's doing.

- What the hell is this?
- Mr Wisniewski, I owe you an apology.

- I'm going to deal with this right
now.

- Just... I'm really so very sorry.

- Jess...

- Do you want to hurry up?

- Oh, it looks lovely.
- I need a smaller size, Bex.

- We haven't got time.

- Oh, my God, it'll take two minutes.
It's like shopping with Mum.

- I reckon she's an eight.

Come on, I'm not going to bite you.

I really don't have time for this.

Have you quite finished?

- I told you to stay away from me.

- I have been doing. It's a
coincidence.

I happened to be passing, saw you...

- Right, and when you went to see my
mum in her office, you were just
passing then, were you?

- I wanted to meet the family.

- You've no right doing this to me!

We're finished, do you not get it?

- Bit of retail therapy, was it? My
money paying for it, yeah?

- I never asked for your money.

- But you took it. You know you've
earned it.

- Just have it back. Go on, please,
have it.

- Problem is if I take that you're
going to think we're all square.

There's nowhere to go.

- Last chance - just take the money.

- You always did love the cash, Bex.

What did you do that for?
- I don't

need your money and I don't need you.

- You didn't need to throw it off

the building! There's nearly a grand
there!
- Just go back to London.

- I'm not giving up on you, Bex.

- I didn't know. It must have been a
last-minute change.

You! You got Budgen to swap tests.

- OK, so I kind of did.

- You know what? I'll give you this
one. Little victory for you.

- Oh, thanks, that's sweet of you,
Ronan.

- When I'm a high flyer and you're
here, it'll comfort you.
- Erm...what's to say

I'm not going to have the same career
as you?

- You've got no education, Janeece.
This is it for you.

BOTH SHOUT AT ONCE

- Where is the phone?

- All right, calm down.
- Where is the phone?!

- Mr Wisniewski, let him go!

My office now.

You too, Martin.

The fact is you manhandled a pupil.

- Because he stole my phone.

All day they've been attacking me.

- And we'll be suspending him. But now
I also have to suspend you.

- What?

- I'm sorry, but I've got no choice.

- But you are giving him what he
wants.

He's sitting out there, happy.

- MOBILE RINGING

Mr Wisniewski...

Mr Wisniewski!

RINGING CONTINUES

- Where is it?

Where's the phone?

Hello, Viktor?

- HE SPEAKS IN POLISH

SHOUTS JOYFULLY IN POLISH

- Viktor, my son.

He had an exam in Poland today.

A very hard exam.

- Did he do well?
- Well, he says no,

but I know he did. He's a smart boy.

- Um... Do we have to go ahead with
the suspension,

Chris, given the circumstances?

- I was wrong to push him.

But, actually, one day here is enough
for me.

- Well, if you present your case
then...
- No. I quit.

Thank you, thank you for opportunity,

but I think it's better for me to

have a fresh start somewhere else.

- Where the hell did you get off to?

Are we going to get this dress or not?

- I ain't got any money.

- Er...yeah you have. You've got an
big fat envelope of it, in fact.
- I threw it away.

- What? you threw your savings away?

- They weren't my savings, Jess.

- Yeah. I kind of guessed that.

So where did you get it from then?

- I can't tell you.
- Well, it must be something bad,
then, Bex.

Were you on the game?

- BEX SCOFFS

Look, I did some things that I'm not
proud of.

I just...I don't want to say any more
than that.

- I'm your sister.
- Yeah, and when I'm ready to talk.

you will be the first person I turn
to.

JESS SIGHS

- All right. Well, come on, then,
let's go find a bank.

We're going out tonight, aren't we?

You've got no money, so I'm paying.
- Can you afford it?

- Yeah. Got my savings, haven't I?

- I don't understand, Martin.

I'm not saying you're the perfect
pupil but you're smart.

You've got a future. Shoo-in for
university if you work hard.

- Dad says university's overrated.

- And what do you think?

- Dunno. Probably just stay around
here, I'll get a job when I leave
school.

- Right, so you'll just throw away
your education?

- My dad never had one and he'd have
been fine if he'd got this job,
wouldn't he?

- Because your dad didn't get the job,
that makes it OK for you and Kyle to
harass Mr Wisniewski.

- I didn't say nothing about Kyle.

- We know Kyle was involved. We're not
stupid.

OK, one week suspension for you,

starting from now.

You go and you apologise to Mr
Wisniewski and then you go home.

So was it worth it?

- How do you mean?
- You got rid of Mr Wisniewski,

you must be happy with the result?
- I'm just sticking up for my dad,
sir.

- Well, all the trouble you've caused
today,

I'm sure your dad would be very proud.

I can't believe she thinks like that.

Then again, Ruby never was the most
tolerant.

- Worst thing is she actually believes
she's right.

- Well, she's the only one.

- Must be hard, I suppose - when you
think something's right and everyone
says it's wrong.

- Not really. I usually bug everyone
until they see it my way.

- What if you know something's wrong
but you just can't help yourself?

- Just so that I know - we're not
talking about Ruby now, are we?

Hmm? There's nothing wrong in it, you
know, Cesca.

We can't help who we fall for.

If you and Tom like each other then go
for it.

I know you two had a bit of a shock
the other night, but

you should just trust your instincts.

- And what if your instincts are
wrong?
- What, with Tom?

- Yeah.
- Isn't it better just to take a risk,

see what happens? This might be the
best thing for you.

I mean, look at me. I just ended up
with guys that I thought other people
would approve of,

and where did that leave me?

Three ex-husbands and a whole heap of
regret.

CESCA SIGHS

- Your dad's going to be fine, he's
solid.

- Not at the minute, he isn't.

Just sits around in the dark and
doesn't say a word.

- Yeah, I wish my dad did that.
- Nate!

- Sorry.

It's just that he keeps going on

at me like he hates me.

- He doesn't hate you.
- He does. It's Aaron he was close to.

That's what it's all been about -

me not being Aaron.

- You can't change that.

- I know, but...

If I'm not like him, what if I turn
out like my dad?

That's what I'm worried about. What if
I end up doing something like he did?

- You are nothing like your dad, Nate.

- How do you know that?

- Well, for one, you can't fight.

And for another,

I wouldn't be with you if you were.

We're all right, you know.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Now I've really got to go.

- Miss...

I'm sorry about earlier.

- It's not me you should be
apologising to.

- I'm just on my way to see him now.

- Good.

- Things just got out of hand.

- Well, yeah, it's been a hard lesson
for both of us, but...

they say those are the most effective.

It's...you know... It's all behind us
now, so...

Anyway, it's over.

- It's not over. My dad's here.

- Go get Mr Mead.

- Right, son, you show me where he is,
yeah?

- Mr Wisniewski...

You need to stay here.

- What? Why?

- Just...trust me, you need to stay
here.

- Mrs Fry, I don't know what's
happening.

I'm not attracted to you.

CRASHING

- Oh, my God!
- This is safety glass! Idiot.

- Let's see how tough you are!
- You

want trouble?
- Come on, get out here!

- No, Mr Wisniewski! Just think about
your job!
- The job you stole.

- I didn't steal it! Don't call me a
thief, OK?!
- That is enough!

Hey! That is enough. Please! Back off!

- He attacked my son.
- Let's not pretend that this is about
Martin.

You have come in here to throw your
weight around. You're meant to be
setting an example.

- I am. I'm showing my kid how to
stand up against his lot.

- You are showing him how to be a
bully like you are, that's all.
- Yeah, maybe that's how you see it.

- You've got him going round the
school causing havoc because you
didn't get a job!

- Would you blame me? I've lived two
miles away for years

and they hand it over to someone

who arrived a week ago.

I didn't even get an interview.
- That's not true, though, is it, Mr
Dowling?

I called the recruitment agency to
find out why they didn't give you an
interview.

Apparently, they offered you one, but
you didn't turn up.

- Dad? Is that true?

Dad?

- No, no, really, Janeece, why bother?

- Well, because education's important
and I want a career.

- Look, re-sitting an A level is a lot
of hassle. Extra work.

- That's why you're going to help me.
After school, two nights a week.

- I'm a very busy man, Janeece.

- Well, I'll pay you.
- Start Tuesday.

- You had no right to invite her.
- I didn't. She invited herself.

- You should've said that I was busy.

- But you're not, you're just sitting
round in your pyjamas.

Come on, she said she wanted to cheer
you up.

- She actually said that?
- Yes. Now give us a hand.

- Josh, no. I'm not up for this, I'm
going to call her and cancel.

- No, you're not. I'm not sitting in
again with you depressed.

- Josh...
- No, I mean it, Dad.

You do this, get a shower and get a
grip. Go.

- You know, about this morning, with
Martin...

I'm sorry.

- You made up for it out there.

- It's...um...been very nice to meet
you.

- Lukas. Nice meeting you.
- Yes.

- Just give us a sec, eh?

Don't look at me like that, son.

It would have been a total waste of
time.
- You don't know that.

- Come on. Immigrants get all the
jobs.
- Maybe because they turn up to
interviews!

You've made me feel like a total div.

I've put my future on the line, I've
made that guy's life a total misery -

I did all that for you.
- I never asked you to.
- Yes, you did.

You made it very clear.

And all the time you didn't even want
the job.

- Maybe I just didn't want this job.

- What?
- I was a welder, son, you know?

Proper profession. Proper skills.

- So?
- So? So now I'm supposed to stoop to
the level of a caretaker?

- It's better than being on the dole,
hanging around the house.

- Yeah, it would suit you, eh?

Having your old man in here, clearing
up after you.

You're the smart man, eh?

The brainbox. The kid with the bright
future.
- Yeah.

And you're supposed to be happy about
that, Dad.

Is that not what you want for me?

No, it's not, is it?

You want me to be more like Kyle.

A total screw up.
- Don't be daft. Why would I want
that?

- I don't know. Maybe if I mess my
life up, you won't feel so bad about
the state of yours.

- Sorry.

- It's all right.

Looks better than it did.

- No, I'm gawping at you, talk about
being insensitive.

Look, I'm so sorry I haven't been in
touch.

- I don't blame you.

It had me pretty shook up as well.

- Are you staying for dinner, miss?
- Well, that would be nice.

- You could cook something, Dad.
- We haven't got anything in.

We haven't been to shops, see.

- OK, well, here's a thought. Why
don't we all go out for a drink?

- I don't really feel much like
drinking.
- Go on, Dad.

- I'm not planning a session!
- I really don't think it's a good
idea...

- It's just the one drink and then
we'll grab a takeaway on the way

back.
- No, really.

- I think this could be good for you,
it'll cheer you up.
- No, it won't! I don't want to go
out! All right?

I'm sorry.

- I know. And it's going to be fine,
OK?

- Look, there's some pizza in the
freezer.

Is pizza OK, miss?
- Pizza's great.

As long as it's all right with your
dad.

- Yeah. Why not?

I'm sorry.

- It's all right.

- I am looking forward to giving Karen
her school back tomorrow.

- Yeah, I'm not sure how you're going
to be able to explain all this away.

- I was planning on leaving most of
that to you, actually.

- Great(!) Can't wait.

- Pint of lager and a white wine,
please.

- So you finally saw the light?

- My comments were misjudged.

- Well, as promised, a pair of
tickets.

- Grantly, I just couldn't handle The
Misanthrope tonight, I'm sorry.

- Ah, these are for another
performance.

- Oh, Oklahoma! Oh, I love this!

- Don't get too excited. It's an
amateur production.

- Do you know, I could've handled the
rest of them but...

I'd just hate it if you were
disappointed in me.

I've got two tickets. Are you going to
come?

- Er...well, I thought you'd ask John.

- Oh, no, he's been loads of times.

# Chicks and ducks and geese better
hurry

# When I take you out in my surrey

# With the fringe on top! # Come on,
we're going to be late.

- I'm sorry I didn't visit sooner.

- It's OK.

You're here now. It's fine.

To tell you the truth, I was bricking
it, seeing you again.

I didn't exactly cover myself in
glory, did I,

on our first date?

- You don't need to apologise.

- I'll tell you what - why don't you
come over tomorrow night?

I'm sure I can rustle up something a
little bit more exotic than a pizza.

- I'm so sorry, Tom. I'm...I'm a bit
busy.

I've sort of made some arrangements.

- It was just a thought. No pressure.

- Tom...I like you,

but you're going through a lot right
now,

and there's some things that I need to
sort out...

..so let's just...
- Take it easy?

Yeah. Sure. You're right.

- I better go.

I'll see you back at school?

Soon, I hope.

OK.

- Before you say anything, just hear
me out.

I had no right to talk to you like
that.

I was out of order.

- No, you weren't. You were right.

- Look, if you want to forget all
about us,

that's OK.

It's just...

- Just what?

- I can't stop thinking about you.

Well, I'll see you tomorrow.

- Wait.

- Vicki's going to here in about 15
minutes.
- Yeah?

- You know, footballers and that come
here all the time.

Pretty big names.
- Yeah. Great.

- Bex, you should be flattered.

- I just wish they'd stop staring.

- Well, you're the one who wanted to
come here.

- No, honestly, it's fine.

To the Fisher sisters!

- If you're not going to have a good
time, let's go home.

- No. Don't be daft.
- Honestly, it's fine.

I appreciate everything that you're
doing.

- Doing what?
- Well, coming here with me when you
clearly hate it.

Honestly, it's fine, go, Vicki will be
here soon.
- Are you sure?

I just think I need to spend some time
on my own.

- Well, go on, then, get lost.

- Thank you.

MOBILE BEEPS

- You on your own too?

Can I get you a drink?

- OK.

- Didn't think I'd be doing this when
I woke up this morning.

- You're not regretting it, are you?
- No.

What about you?
- I don't think I'll be regretting
this.

- SHE LAUGHS

- So what am I looking at? A five?
Six?

- Oh, Jonah, please!

- What less than a five?

- I'd say you were about a nine.

- A nine? Serious?

All right, not bad for a first timer.

I'm sorry. I thought you knew.

Cesca?
- This was your first time?

- Well, does it matter?

- This was your time, Jonah?

- Yeah, and I'm glad it was with you.

No regrets?

- No, no regrets.

Karen knows.
- It doesn't mention us.
- It doesn't have to!

- Yeah? Come on!

- You threw a child to the ground.

- It's the only language that Kyle
understands!

- We are here on official union
business to get an explanation for
this.

We will need a written apology by the
end of the day.

Do you ever think about anyone else
but yourself?
- I don't know, do you?

All I've got is a mum that shouts,
issues orders

and I've got a dad that I'm not even
allowed to see!
