You're still going to be excluded for a week though, Darcy. So how come you

haven't invited us back to yours yet? You just tried to blackmail a

That means you are now in detention forever.

Let me show you how to do it properly so you don't break your leg.

He's lying about that useless thing. I wonder what that's all about. I don't

know. So I'm going to find out.

That's what you're wearing for coach day? World what? And that's a shirt, not

dress. Well, Mum would have said I look amazing.

Remember that Halloween she painted white bones on our black PJs to make us

like skeletons? And you loved yours so much you wore them to bed for, like, two

years. As if.

Just a year.

So, I can keep it on?

You see these footprints all over my back?

We've walked all over. That's me.

Culture Day.

You don't know it will come one direction.

Irish and unlike Harry's dial, underrated.

Oh, very nice.

I thought you might keep a low profile on your return to

work, but no.

Why would I?

Nothing to hide.

Good job in that skirt.

Isn't your mum from the Caribbean?

My nan's actually a court Hawaiian, so I brought some of my people through to

share. If you do realise Hawaiian pizza isn't actually from Hawaii, this will

make some effort.

Well, then I can save for you.

If you must know, my costume's on its way.

H Division was the police force responsible for Whitechapel.

Sorry I'm late, sir.

It's fine, Raleigh. Take your seat.

So, H Division had four... Good outfit.

Going to the show tonight?

Um, yeah.

Nice.

Is your dad calling?

You really have no idea how creepy you are, do you?

You look amazing, by the way.

Did you bring mine?

It's whatever.

It's fine.

It's not you don't have anything to wear now. Seriously?

No big deal.

You know what?

I'm going to call my dad at breaking game to bring him.

Abba! See?

Didn't they have serum back then?

Aren't we going to wait for Darcy?

Oh, that's right.

He's not been in all week.

Probably at the reptile enclosure with all the other snakes.

You ever considered a career in waste management?

Cos you specialise in rubbish.

Oh, way up! OK, open your books to chapter 15, please.

You're Jordan from boxing.

He's been texting me.

You both look nice.

Thanks. What's so funny on your phone?

Summer was showing me a boxing video.

So, um, how's your mum?

Busy smooching our heads. Shut up, you.

Summer.

Which is good. Is that her sending all the messages?

It's not your business anymore, Billy.

Phones away, please.

Being a parent is a huge responsibility.

These circulators replicate real -life crying, eating...

And sleep schedule.

So you lucky lot get the chance to see what it's really like to look after a

baby. This is so exciting. I love babies.

I hate them.

Loud, greedy, lazy.

You know, you've just described yourself less.

The happier they'll be.

I want to be just like my mum.

She was the best mum ever.

Here we go, girl.

Mummy one, mummy two.

Mateo from the Himalayas.

Long commute this morning?

Oh, you know, those mountain rangers.

Your outfit's fire, Becky.

Well, we're all out of dolls, so you can join Leila and Rihanna. All three of

us? Well, families come in all shapes and sizes, Leila.

You can't trust him, Rih. We still don't know who Yusuf is yet. Who cares?

Then look.

Give it a name yet?

Well, if you haven't, what about MJ?

Mateo Junior?

MJ? Yeah, great.

Are those Hawaiian pizzas?

It's my favourite.

Do you want one?

Really? Well, if he's going to be the father of our MJ, then he needs to be

pet.

Ronnie, I had this dream last night. This little bee kept buzzing in my ear.

Then there was another one buzzing in my other ear.

Two Bs?

Then it hit me.

Two Bs?

There were two Bs in Battle of the Bands.

Ah, we're looking for you two.

I watched your video, Coventry FM one. Congratulations.

The thing is, the band that was supposed to be playing tonight have pulled out.

Normally we could rely on Polly doing a clarinet solo for that sort of thing.

But now, we've got the next best thing.

You guys.

You want us to perform tonight?

You've got all lunchtime and then after school to rehearse. Yeah, you'll be

fine. Great.

Thanks, girl.

There are only two lasting requests we can hope to give our children.

One is rude.

The other is wing.

Faith, what do you think Gautier meant in this quote?

Something profound about world culture, David.

But what specifically?

Ruth, tell you who you are, I guess.

Um, we give children wings because who doesn't want a box of six wings and

chips?

I don't think Goethe meant those sorts of wings, Faith.

And if I catch you using your phone again, I'll confiscate it, understand?

OK,

that's it.

Detention.

And I'll let Mr Kasari know you'll be helping him out with the catering at the

show tonight.

What have you done to baby DJ?

Baby MJ, Leila.

I don't know.

I think you might need to snap a change in. Can you do it? Are you nuts? I did

the last one.

Where's Mateo?

I don't know. I think he went to the loo ages ago.

Funny how he disappears at napping time. He ain't getting away with this free.

No way. Baby MJ deserves more than a deadbeat dad.

She arrived.

Told you so.

Absolute waste.

My dad left my mum to go chirp to a woman.

That is not happening to me.

Your child needs you, Mateo.

We're just comparing parenting tips and that.

Parenting? You've not lifted a single finger since we got baby MJ and now

off chatting to other girls.

I want my pizza back.

I don't have it on me right now. Well, I hope you choke on it then. You what?

Listen, we've had him all morning.

Now it's your time. And his bum needs changing.

Time you live up to your parental responsibilities.

Where are you girls going to be?

Lunch. I left some Marmite crisps in the boiler room, and now they're gone.

Just keep them missing from there.

Focus on the bigger picture, OK?

I'm super excited for Science Club's first gig tonight.

As headliners.

They're in all the bands playing this evening, Khaled.

Even better.

Means the spotlight's purely on you two. I couldn't think of a better practice

run for Battle of the Bands in a few weeks.

Are you ready to play, then, or what?

Hello? This is all wrong.

Hey, been messaging you.

Where have you been?

Do you mind?

We're in the middle of a very critical rehearsal.

Oh, God, Faith, the costume.

I forgot again. I was literally phoning my dad when Mrs Stewart interrupted me.

Save your excuses, Ronnie.

Come on, Faith, I didn't forget on purpose.

Look, I get it.

Your band's way more important. I'm just really nervous.

Last time I performed was for the school musical and it didn't happen.

I can't go through that again. Forget the flipping clothes.

I'm out.

They're definitely talking about a boy.

You OK, hon?

Ah, if it isn't Phoenix Rise's first official school farmer.

This is for you, Cassidy.

Top grade manure.

Got to keep that soil fertile.

Can't I just do ordinary detention?

I want you to pick some produce for the catering team to use later.

Produce? It's just rabbit food to me.

Billy can help you.

He knows celery from, uh, Celeriac.

Nice lunch.

Where's baby MJ?

MJ? Our baby.

Me and Leila gave him to you before lunch.

Oh, yeah. Oh, I love that guy.

I think I gave him to Leila, yeah, just before class.

Why are you still doing catering anyway?

Didn't your punishment finish, like, weeks ago?

Not that I'm paying attention or anything.

I like cooking now, innit?

And I'm good at it.

Guess you've got loads of free time now. Someone's pired you off.

What's funny?

I just got a flashback of when Darcy dumped you at your party. After you

flounced in on that horse.

Boy, Summer was talking about Daisy earlier.

I heard he's some henchboxer who's been to the Olympics.

Jealous?

You can't wind me up because I don't care what you think.

Like it didn't wind you up when I burnt your quiches?

That's right, it was me.

Me and Summer split up because of that? No, you and Summer split up because of

you being a psycho and yelling at her mum in front of the whole school.

Own it, Billy.

You are literally the worst person I've ever known.

You know what?

I'm happy for someone meeting someone new.

I hope it works out for them.

Please,

go straight through.

Welcome to World Culture Day.

Hello, Leila.

Or should I say, aloha?

Oh, you're welcome.

You made it.

B. Mr K.

How are you?

Another day closer to retirement.

You're looking very professional.

What did you expect?

Begging in the gutter?

Lake, what on earth are you wearing?

I'm getting in touch with our roots.

Excuse me?

Nan's a quarter Hawaii.

No, she's not. She's a quarter Guyanese.

So why does she have ten pineapples for everything then?

She looks like a pineapple.

Whatever. I need to go find Ray. He's not replying to my texts and he's got

baby.

You alright?

Looking good.

What are you doing here?

I came to see my brother. You didn't get to?

Excuse me one sec.

This

door's

been left unlocked again.

now.

Easy. What did the tray do for you?

Is everything all right?

I'd just rather be doing anything than be in this stinking kitchen.

Fucking fuzz, babe.

So how's the accountancy course? As if.

Performing art.

Darling, what are you doing with your time that's so important?

Retake, which is boring.

And working part -time at the apartment store.

It's kind of fun, actually, you know, staff this time.

Well, you look good enough to eat.

Suits me, right?

Uh -oh.

Someone's jealous.

Why would she bring him here?

See, they look good together.

God, that keeps Magnum from being someone nice around to dinner.

Maybe someone's the one.

You're done.

It's my brother, Jordan.

What?

Would you guys calm down?

You're making me nervous. Right, can I have some space, please?

Surgery to perform.

Yes, this is what I'm talking about.

This, babe, is what we call fashion forward.

We're setting trends here tonight.

You don't think people... You either want my expertise or you don't. I'm not

going to stand around here and be insulted.

Oh, they want it, OK? And they're very grateful for this vibe.

Let's get you zipped in, then.

Thank you for coming to help us celebrate World Culture Day.

Going by all the effort you've made, seeing just how much pride you clearly

have for where you've come from, well, it's a thing of beauty.

An old mentor of mine once said to me, people without knowledge of their past

history or culture is like a tree without roots.

Now, can I ask you all to put your hands together?

For the first live performance from Phoenix Rise's very own... Science Club!

That's my craftsmanship.

It's going for a K -pop vibe.

Cultural appropriation on World Culture Day.

Nice.

This is our first song.

It's not plugged in.

You know who that is, don't you?

Your boxer.

What are you talking about, Billy?

It's Nathan Keyes, brother.

Yeah,

so what?

I'm a free agent.

Does he look hench to you?

Get over it already, Billy.

Call yourself a mate?

Move.

Go on, do one.

Faith. Faith.

Faith.

Whoa,

what are you doing? Get off me.

You're going to mess up Rani's big moment.

She deserves it.

How can anyone have beef with Rani?

You showed her what you know then, doesn't it?

She hurt me.

Hurt you how?

What, are you in love with her or something? No.

It's all these stupid costumes.

I hate it.

Well, so do I.

You don't see me trying to burn the place down. It's all right for you.

You know where you come from.

Who you look like.

And you don't.

You can take all your family photos and your stupid trips to the seaside. You

can shop it where the... All right, all right, it's all right.

I get it.

No.

You don't. What, you think I don't have mates that have been adopted?

So, let's take a deep breath and just heal for a second, yeah?

Why would you put Baby MJ on top of the bin?

You know how much this means to me.

I didn't leave the baby on top of the bin.

Yeah, you did.

Mateo said that he gave Baby MJ to you and then I find him laying face down.

On top of the bed. So you're going to believe that liar over me, your best

friend? He's from London, like my dad. I can't believe a word he says.

Oh.

Why are you letting some boy get in between you two?

You two are best friends.

Sisters.

You need to find that waste man and tell him what's what.

Thanks for coming everyone.

We've been Science Club.

You can follow us on our socials at

Rome wasn't built in a day. The music, the outfits, the

vibe, it's not us, it's not me.

So if you felt this way, why did you go ahead with it?

Somewhere along the line we got a bit lost.

Then maybe it's time you found yourself again.

How?

By remembering.

Who Rani is.

So, have you ever, like, met him?

Your birth parents, I mean.

Don't even know if they're still together.

But I've never tried to find out.

Well, do you want to?

I think about it all the time.

So what's stopping you?

I don't know where to start.

OK, how about I do you a deal, yeah?

You stop with all the crazy stuff, and I'll help you out.

How?

Um, I don't know. Like, social services, those ancestry websites.

We'll figure it out.

Oh, is that him?

Uh, don't go anywhere.

I can't believe you put a track on Mateo's phone, though.

That's genius.

It says he's down here.

Uh, where do you think you two are going?

Hold on. Is that smoke?

No!

Potatoes! Rick!

Don't find me for sure! No!

Please!

Quick, hurry up!

I'm scared, Billy!

You changed the combination!

Leo, hit the fire alarm!

Where is it?

I can't find it!

Help!

Come on.

Come on.

Mateo, can you hear me?

Someone's coming to help you.

Keep walking. Come on, that's all right. It's all right.

It's all going to be okay. Emergency services are on their way. Is anyone

in there? No.

Okay, come on, come on.

Hey.

You all right?

Fine. I didn't start every fire on Coventry.

These are for you.

They're called plates, yeah.

They're rocky biscuits.

I brought them to say I'm sorry I am.

I forgot about you earlier.

We'll have to get you over for a dinner one evening.

Get out, Rani's dance mat.

You don't.

I've been known to... What is it they say?

Bust a few moves.

I am so sorry about my dad.

Don't be.

How is he, sir?

Yeah, he's going to be fine.

They just need to keep him in for observation.

He did well today, Billy. But you shouldn't have put yourself in danger

that.

Why was he in the boiler room?

I've been letting him sleep in there.

He's been living in a B &B miles away from home. I've been sorting him out

clothes and stuff.

I was so mean to him earlier.

The last thing I said to him was, I hope he chokes on that pizza.

He's going to be all right.

Well, at least he managed to keep the baby alive.

Bill!

Don't even talk to me.

Did you just say Mr Stewart's going to propose?

We can't just sneak out of school.

Who's going to stop us?

It's like the end of an era. We've made a pact. If I'd stopped doing crazy

stuff, then you'd help your other birth mum.

First rule of boxing. Know your opponent.

We cop in the morning.

We ride. When the early bird fall in. Yeah, we ride. When we get up in our

feelings, do what the phoenix do. So of course we ride. When we gotta get to

class. 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.
