Hey.

Hi, sir.

Get out, Mr. S. It's not like Harry and Meghan are coming. Just a load of dull

business people.

Today is about showcasing the school to the local community.

Begging for money, more like.

And as class president, I'm expecting you to be our ambassador.

It's too late to resign.

So, when the guests come, big smile, okay?

Why do I feel like I'm the one on show today?

Because these kids are an extension.

Yeah.

Age before beauty?

No, just before the brain. I know, I insist.

This is a new initiative that we're doing.

Can't I just have one morning where you two aren't behaving like silly beggars?

Inside the pariah.

The purpose of today, Mr Stewart... Oh, it's Mr Stewart now, is it?

..is to convince the wider community that the next generation of business

entrepreneurs are right here in this school.

Those two are not it.

Just a man.

One moment, please.

That's all right. Come on. With our guests who are in the school today,

is there something we could do with Darcy and Caleb?

You know, get them occupied or even out on a flight?

Just until they can be trusted to act appropriately.

I could think of something.

So, about the PE budget... Perfect. They're all yours.

What is that?

One of my poems.

Really, Leila? You're seriously planning on selling your merchandise to the

guests? A, B, C.

Always be closing.

Golden rule of a female boss player.

Can I show some of the guests around the school when they arrive?

I think you're best here, displaying your...

..flare for poetry.

I'm a people person.

I can tell.

I think she'd be perfect.

OK, Leila, but just remember, sometimes with new people, less is more.

Is there somewhere I can go and freshen up?

Yeah, of course.

New people, new customers.

Young love, eh?

Surely you have rules about that.

Holding hands.

That boy's an accident waiting to happen.

Billy.

No.

He's a good kid.

If your definition of good is really, really bad.

Billy.

You ready to wow everyone with your catering skill?

Just a couple of nibbles.

He's being modest.

Anyone can knock a nibble together.

Mum.

Shouldn't we be in the kitchen, Jeff?

Faith's right.

Summer, would you mind showing your mum to the staff toilets, please?

She hates you.

Tell me about it. Can you blame her? Did you say something?

Ignore her.

Summer might be a loser, but even she can do better than Compton Smith wanted.

One day someone's going to shut you up for good.

Did Summer say something? Or was that a dog barking?

If there's one person I never waste my energy on, it's her.

She really ain't worth it.

But to me, it's room for after school today.

Rehearsals, how cool is that?

OK, year 10.

Success is where preparation and opportunity meet.

For the future scientists preparing to impress our guests, final tweaks and

tidy your workstation.

Let's make sure we uphold the reputation of our scientific community.

It would be terribly embarrassing if you failed to make any meaningful

connection due to a lack of chemistry.

Layla's ordered some merchandise for the band.

Amazing. But how can we have our own brand without a name?

A name?

Ruby and Rani.

Or Rani and Ruby.

The two R's.

R and R?

Or just a pound.

Like... Will this be on display today?

No.

Probably for the best.

So

this

is where you're hiding.

Hiding? I'm getting really tired of repeating myself.

You need to stay away from Summer.

Come on, Miss B.

Look, I really care about her.

If you just give me a chance, please. A chance?

Talking my daughter into staying overnight at your house.

Stolen golf boogies and court cases.

I know it looks bad, but honestly, if you got to know me... I know exactly who

you are.

And from round the way, too, you know.

I grew up around plenty Billy Hopkins, and right now they're all either in

prison, just got out, or on their way there.

That ain't me.

You were in Prue, Billy.

You're up before a magistrate's and you're barely 16.

Well, I'm not a bad person.

I'm sure you mean well.

And I believe you, that you care about Summer.

But feelings, sometimes it's just not enough.

Life is tough, Billy. And the last thing I want from my little girl is a tough

life. And if you really cared about her, you'd see that.

Of course I do, but... And what about the life that Summer deserves?

Security and a nice home.

And not worrying about paying the bills or a husband in prison or police at the

door.

She deserves a great life.

The best.

You think you can give her that, do you?

Be honest, Billy.

I... I don't know.

Do the right thing.

What do you mean?

Walk away.

You know when I say clean up after practice?

And no one ever does.

No way. I want this place as clean as a whistle by the time I'm back.

You best crack on, Darcy.

No, mate, this is all you.

I'm not asking you to be best, mate.

The least you can do is get along.

No chance.

You two were like Roy Keane and Gary Neville.

Poetry and motion on the pitch, but Roy couldn't stand Gary off it.

When you cross that white line...

You've got to find a way to change that hate into love for the game. No chance,

sir. Yeah, no Roy Keane.

Remember the Cov City scout?

He's coming here next week.

A nice one, sir. But if you boys can't get this job done,

you're benched. No way, sir.

This is your shot.

Don't blow it.

Same goes for you, Caleb.

So good at this. Look, you know I'm grateful for you dicking by me, even

the court case.

That went from zero to 100.

I, uh, I saw your mum earlier.

Seriously?

This woman, what is her problem?

Cooking, chef.

I'll leave you to it, chef.

You're not going to say anything?

Trust me, I will be saying plenty.

Summer, please.

It will make things worse.

Leave your mum to me.

She'll be having me round for Sunday dinner in no time.

We usually go to a car free.

I can do that.

Meet me after school.

I've got a surprise for you.

To say thanks.

Properly.

What's life like? It's a football.

Oh, it's cool.

If you like getting kicked in the head all day long. Do you ever stop talking?

I mean, seriously, it's like this constant bullying sound in my ear.

How rude.

Shall I deal with him?

Yes, please, for out of the football.

You know, Stuart's probably planned all this so that he can keep us away from

his precious business guests.

Look, I don't care what Mr Stuart's planning.

Just as long as Mr Edwards starts with the next game.

You need professional help, mate.

What are you doing?

Scouts come and see me too.

Edward's only told you that because he felt bad for you.

There's only one star pilot scout coming to see you.

We're the best family.

Honestly, making the right business connections today, it could be a game

changer for our students.

Did you go to Polly's house?

Yes, but the curtains were drawn, no car on the drive.

It's been in the doorbell for ages.

Did someone answer?

No. But the neighbour did see me, and she reckons Polly and her mum were there

one day and gone the next.

Like they disappeared in the night?

We've got to do some more digging.

I know you're all busy people, so firstly, thank you so much for taking

to come and visit us.

As you can see, our students are deeply passionate about learning.

We have all sorts of projects on display, like this amazing piece.

How's it going?

How's what going?

I'm going to go get some, like, nibbles. Wait for me. I love nibbles.

If you were to criticise my outfit, slash hair, slash boyfriend, save your

breath. What's he said?

Nothing. Why?

No reason.

It's nice to see these kids focused on what they want to do.

It's got me thinking.

I always love to hear what you're thinking.

You should be concentrating on your nursing degree, not a part -time job.

I've got to pay for it somehow.

But you'll be knackered and skint all the time, even though you'll be working

hard. What else am I supposed to do?

Well, I could help you out.

Pay for your degree so you don't have to work.

Really?

Can you afford that?

Yeah.

But if I do this, I need you to take your GCSE seriously.

Yeah, I already do.

Keep your head down.

Focus on your studies.

Revision.

Important things.

No distractions.

Oh, I see.

Now it makes sense, no distractions.

You mean Billy.

Well, there have been a lot of Billy -related distractions recently.

You don't really care about my career.

You're just trying to control my life as usual. That boy's not good enough for

you. He's a ticking time bomb.

And when he blows, you'll see I was right. It's my decision to make. And I

need your fake support. I work two jobs if I had to.

You need to keep things moving while I show the guests around.

I was about to go get some food. The price list.

No discount.

What if someone sees me?

Sell enough and I might even break your office on the profit.

Deal?

Deal. Gotta go.

Grab a round, please.

I need to show you a really important landmark.

So this is my locker, where I can spy, start, lay, and save my new beauty

Feel free to test them out, spray, and moisturise away.

I'll meet you all back in the library.

So I said, why do you always wear sunglasses in class?

And he said, because they're bright.

Hate to break up the party, but I'm taking some merch pics for socials and I

need Mateo to model them.

What merch?

I ordered some T -shirts for Ronnie's band.

I need to collect them from the admin office.

Why are the school organising merch for Ronnie's band?

The school thinks it's a science club T -shirt, but, spoiler alert, there is no

science club.

I added my own logo instead.

Aren't you supposed to be showing people around the school?

Where are they?

At least up at the library first, then the admin office.

I'd watch out for that one.

She's my friend.

Friend, enemy, the thin line.

Especially when it comes to boys.

Remember to use a pocket cutter.

Whoa, easy on the feeling, mate.

Moi?

Yeah, it's all right. For someone who can't tie their own shoelace.

I know my quiche is perfect, but, Billy, you shouldn't have.

Get out of here.

Come on, let me see.

We are infinite.

You know that means longer than forever, right?

My dad's girlfriend, Bev, has been giving me a bit of advice.

It's no diamond ring, but it'll do.

I thought you'd say it was silly.

Why?

Because I don't have feelings.

No, no, I didn't say that.

I didn't think you'd be into this sort of stuff.

Well, I'm into all sorts, which you'd know about if you bothered to ask.

OK, I deserve that.

I want to get it right.

Like, I'm already thinking I'm weak, I think.

Well, you want to impress Summer, or you want to impress her mum?

Well... Summer.

So give her the bracelet.

Look, everyone reckons parents know best.

Well, trust me, they don't.

Someone's going to love the bracelet.

All that matters.

A name is a big decision.

It should represent who you are.

Then we need to pick the right one.

And once we pick it, we can't, like, change it, ever.

It's just not the dumb thing in the music biz.

When you hear it... You'll know.

Merch reveal after school.

Daisy, what happened to ABC?

Where are the customers?

Wait here, I'll show you how it's done.

Hello?

Yes, this is she.

What?

Look, I'll finish up before my break.

How's the next batch coming along?

All ready to go in. You see?

No matter what other people may say, believe in yourself.

Other people?

Like Summer's mum?

I think she'd be happier if Summer brought home a serial killer.

Look, she'll come round.

Have you seen her?

I just thought, maybe if she tries... Summer's my copier.

What?

That's going to have to be some good quiche or not, Billy.

Come on.

I was only joking.

Look, she's a reasonable woman.

Look, I'm going to make sure she gets one.

How have you given up already?

Because I don't see what the problem is.

This is tidy to me.

That's because your head is as messy as this changing room.

Mate, why does nothing wind you up?

Because life's too short.

Why sweat the small stuff?

That's easy for you to say.

Sorry, I didn't quite catch that.

All I can hear is the tiny little violin that follows you round everywhere you

go. You don't know what it might be, mate.

What?

Popular, not bad looking, best footballer in school?

Yeah, it really sucks to be you, Darcy.

Have you ever wanted something so bad it's all you can think about?

There's poor Mefgal, Cal.

No, football's all I got.

I can't mess this up.

Frodo, what do you say?

Shall we help him out?

been blown away today by the work on display.

I think these students deserve a round of applause.

Most of you know me from my show on Coventry FM, Ask Hazel, Monday to

till 1, which means that you know how much I believe in this community and the

next generation.

That's why today is so important.

It's a chance to connect.

with the brightest, most disciplined students, and I... Oi!

Billy, please stop!

Billy!

You happy?

What are you doing? She did this.

What are you talking about?

You turned the heat off.

You just wanted to see him burn.

I know you think I'm a waste man, but I'm not. You'll see.

Yeah.

We already see, Billy.

I'm really sorry about that. Are you okay?

Sorry about that, everyone.

Please.

I'm impressed.

Go on.

Get out of the way.

You're a starter.

Next week.

Yeah?

Thank you, sir.

Do you, um... Do you really think I can make it?

Of course you can.

But your nose opinion really counts.

Yours.

You believe in yourself.

The sky's the limit, darling.

Millions of miles away Different worlds have lit the

fire But I can feel the change New song?

I like it. Um, it's not finished yet.

You need the hits.

If we record a song.

We'll need studio time.

Do you know any studios?

And who's going to pay for it?

Well, I'm busy with social, so I don't know all about that.

But I do know about this.

I've already got you your own branded t -shirt.

Boo. Science Club?

Interesting name for a band.

Oh, um, I must have forgot to change the logo.

I still get the cute one though, right?

We can work this out. You guys like science.

Anyways, I've got good news and great news.

The good news? That video you're singing is only going to one country's FM

search for a superstar competition.

What?

I didn't even know you'd entered it.

I'm pretty sure I told you. But if I didn't, you're welcome.

And what's the great news?

I'm using the £250 prize money to reinvest in Leila's flavours.

As you won, you're entering the Battle of the Bands competition.

You get to perform live on stage.

Oh, it's the MasterChef.

All hail the MasterChef.

We're not worthy.

What happened to you guys?

The beef is squashed.

Look, I'm sorry for acting like an idiot.

Glad to have the old Darcy back.

And I owe you this for staying out like a sport brat.

Listen, I'll catch you guys later, yeah?

I shouldn't have left it like that.

No.

But overall, they were impressed with the day. We've secured some good

partnerships.

I was so angry when I saw that burnt quiche.

You know, I just, I forgot to count.

There's no way that someone's mum dislikes you that much.

Someone definitely turned it up on purpose.

I don't know if it was an accident or sabotage.

But I do know this.

When you try and do something good in this world, there will always be people

who want to see you fail.

And you'll question whether you're good enough or if you deserve the success or

whether what you're doing is even making a difference.

But you have to remember your why.

Why you're doing what you're doing.

Or it won't be the haters that will bring you down.

It will be you.

And you've come a very long way, Billy. And I know you're going to be a success.

Yeah.

Cheers, sir.

Still got detention tomorrow.

Yes, sir. Science Club is a vibe. The name has a backstory. It's genius.

What's with the new look?

Just keeping it fresh.

No biggie.

You seem different.

Well, thanks for you lot.

People at Brooklyn treat me differently.

Who's going to make me a crazy -eyed little bro?

See? You've got to trust me, Ronnie.

Science Club, it's the one.

Treat me different how?

I'm kind of a big deal.

All right, Callum, version 2 .0.

What? Science Club?

The name of our band.

And we've just signed up for performing at the Battle of the Bands competition.

You'll be cool.

Just practice, find a studio, record a hit song, and keep up the buzz on the

street. Seems like you need to get yourself a manager.

Bye. See you.

We're never going to be ready.

There's just too much to do.

All you need is someone with good organisational skills, good with

understands technology.

Me? You.

Why not? Me.

Summer!

I'm sorry, Summer. I shouldn't have spoken to your mum like that.

I think we should take a break.

What? Because of what I said?

I'd apologise to her. No, it's not just that.

What is it, then?

The court case? No.

We've got exams coming up. I need to focus and so do you. We're so young.

We've got our whole lives ahead of us.

Is that you or your mum talking?

I just think a break is best.

How long?

What, a week? A month?

Wait, look, I got you something.

It's over, Billy.

I just can't.

Sorry.

Who knew turning up the heat on your prison food would cause so much drama?

Oh, well.

My bad.

It's all over.

Is that... No way.

Someone's been thieving.

Breathe into this. Remember everything we've done in training.

We ride, when the early bird fallin' We ride, when we get up in our feelings Do

what the phoenix do, so of course We ride, when we gotta get to clap We ride,

when we fuck under the ash We ride, all my friends gonna see this through Cause

we just do what the phoenix do We ride
