Original subtitles

- There's a riot on the roof of the school! - What?

Maggie, I'm afraid I'm going to have to suspend you

until Christine's return.

- You sound like you're going to propose or something.

This was nice while it lasted,

but I'm way out of your league.

- Tell me mum that her daughter wants to be a copper.

- The police?! After all they've done to this family?

What's our Barry going to think?

Just keep your eye on this big job you've got brewing,

and when you've made your millions, you can have any girl you like.

- MUSIC: "Stand On The Horizon" by Franz Ferdinand

Well, do I look the part?

Look at me, I'm shaking.

I mean, I've done tonnes of work, it's just my stomach's going nuts.

I'm getting interviewed by the police. What if I mess up?

- You'll be ace.

- I'm going to do my best for you. I really want this.

I'll let you get on.

Bye.

- I was away for one week...

- I know, I know, but...

- ..during which time you had a rooftop protest,

pupils walking out en masse!

- Things did get a little out of hand,

but it'll be forgotten in a couple of days.

- No, it won't. The local authority is furious.

- That bunch of pencil pushers.

They should be delighted I managed to deflect

the spotlight away from their incompetence. - George!

- Look, I'm sorry, Christine.

I did my best under very trying circumstances.

- It was an emotional day and one of our students was deported,

which, frankly, couldn't have been handled worse.

I left you in charge to encourage you to take some responsibility,

but you showed no leadership skills whatsoever.

- MOBILE RINGS

- You can't even take this seriously.

- I am waiting for word from the estate agent about my recently

deceased mother's house.

- Oh, give me a break, George.

Simon will be taking over your SMT duties from now on. - Right.

What? Simon? - I think I'm better off with just one deputy for now.

- Well, you seem to have made up your mind. - No, you did that for me.

Don't let me keep you, I'm sure you've got work to do.

I know I have.

- I thought we were friends.

- Oh, yeah, just walk past them, George(!)

Darren Hughes and Lenny Brown. Do up that tie.

What are the rules about walking in the corridors?

- No noise and no pushing, miss.

- And which part of that don't you understand?

- Sorry, miss. - Get to registration.

- Have I shown you that one?

- You're sick, Darren, man.

- I know!

I can't believe you're letting her go to this stupid police interview.

- Trust me. It'll never happen.

Just let her get it out of her system. - It's a joke.

- Oh, hi, love.

You look...nice.

How's Kevin?

- Fine, yeah. - Getting over a clot on the brain, but, you know,

at least he supports me.

- You are completely selfish, you know that?

- Don't start.

- They won't take you anyway, Mum's right. - I never said that.

- Yeah, you did. You know, other mums, they'd be thrilled.

You know how hard it is to get an interview?

- I just don't want you getting your hopes up, that's all.

- And what about Dad? - The same dad that walked out on us?

- Erm, he got banged up. He never walked out.

- Going in the bank with a sawn off shotgun and balaclava,

I'd say that's walking out on us.

- Right, that's enough! I'll be glad when you're both gone. - Both of us?

- You go to police college, Barry down south. - Down south where?

- Back home.

The big job's finally coming off.

Proper money, not the pennies you'll earn. - Ah!

This you acting the big man because Gabriella Wark dumped you?

- You shouldn't be worrying about that jumped up little madam.

She's not worth it. - As if.

I don't give a stuff what she thinks.

- Give us a call when you get to Liverpool.

- Are you not going to say good luck? - Oh, sorry. Good luck.

Let me know everything's all right. - Will do.

- Take a seat.

- Before we start, I just want to say sorry for what I did,

and nothing, nothing you say will make me feel any worse.

- A rooftop protest? Maggie, what possessed you?

- Lula's like one of me own, I couldn't let her down.

Don't tell me you wouldn't have fought tooth and nail

for your Connor if he was in trouble.

- Lula was a pupil, you were her teacher.

We have to follow procedure, Maggie. You got too close.

Simon was right to suspend you.

- I know, and I will prove you can trust us.

Just give us another chance, Christine.

- I have to make a formal report to the county

and this will go on your file. - Please, Christine.

- I want to see you first thing Monday morning,

and we can review the situation.

I'll enrol you on some training courses,

and hopefully we can go from there.

- Thank you so much. I won't let you down.

- You'd better not.

And, Maggie, I would fight tooth and nail for Connor.

But there are ways and means.

- How are you this morning, Harley?

I'm sure we'll hear from Lula soon. - Yes, miss.

- What you doing?

- Didn't do anything. - I saw you. Give it here.

- Come on, then. Try harder! - I'm going to kill you.

- What on earth is going on here?

- It's him, miss. He tried to take a picture up my skirt.

- No, I didn't. - Yeah, you did! Look on his phone.

- Whatever! - Darren Hughes, come back here.

- Er, where do you think you're going? - Get his phone, please, Mrs Budgen.

- No! It's my private property.

- Hand it over, or I take it off you. Now.

Come with me.

- Are you all right, Rhiannon? Come on, everybody back.

- Oink, oink.

- Don't start.

- My little sister, a copper.

Probably should have put money on it, really,

would have made myself a fortune. - How long are you going away for?

- Long enough for the money to roll in.

- Is that all you're taking?

- Keep your busy nose out.

- You are pathetic.

- You're not really going to this interview?

- Well, I'm not going to stay here and hang out with you, am I?

- Are the goods here?

You make sure you ring me the minute that boat docks.

We don't want any cargo going walkabout, do we?

- So, how is the Barry household this morning?

- Actually, I could do with getting out tonight, fancy a drink?

- Yes, I could be tempted. - Great.

I'll see you at lunch.

I'll keep back some chicken curry for you.

- I won't actually be at lunch.

I need to butter up the head mistress.

- She hauled you in for last week? It wasn't even your fault.

You weren't the one on the roof.

- Yeah, well, I know that and you know that.

I just need the opportunity to ram that point home

to our benevolent leader, so I've booked lunch out.

- You never take me out for lunch. - You're a dinner lady. How can I?

Anyway, she hasn't said yes yet, though I have a feeling she might.

- Why, where you taking her?

- The Ashmont, I thought. - The what?!

How many times have I asked you to take me there?

- I going to have to pull out all the stops, aren't I?

She's furious with me. - Yeah? Well, she's not the only one.

- Taking a photo of Rhiannon Salt?

Have you learned nothing from last time?

You're either unbelievably stupid, or - are you listening to me?

- Yes, miss. - Sit down.

- I thought you were suspended.

- Technically, yes, but...

Well. Look at this.

- How many times, Darren? Hey? How often do you need to be told?

It's demeaning, you cannot do this. It's degrading and it's illegal.

How did you get this footage?

I said how did you get it?

- KNOCKING

Oh, you knocked! You must be feeling guilty.

- Look, it was on my watch, and I let things slip.

I take full responsibility.

- And you really think a pot plant's going to cut it?

- It is a peace lily.

I have no excuses, Christine, but I am really sorry.

- And I am really busy.

- The quality of mercy is not strain'd...

..It dropeth as...

- Don't quote Shakespeare at me, it won't work.

- Let me take you out for lunch then. - Don't you have a class to teach?

- I'm on a free.

Let me apologise properly over two delectable courses?

All right, three?

- Never mind your stomach. You need to think about your role here.

You need to prove you are dedicated to this school.

- I am, but we all need to eat.

- KNOCKING

- Christine, sorry, Miss Boston needs you in the cooler.

- Come on, Christine. Please?

- I just don't have time for this.

- Try working in pairs. Really think about the imagery Burns uses.

- TEXT ALERT

I think we're in a pair? Unless you're too busy texting?

I wouldn't want to stop you.

- You know the rules about mobiles in class, Imogen.

- Sorry, sir, I just wanted to wish Dynasty good luck for her interview.

- Mobile away, please.

(But wish her good luck from me first.)

- MUSIC: "Confidence" by The Dodos

- Dynasty Barry?

- Yeah.

- How did you get into the girls' changing rooms to film this?

Have you sent them on? Have you put these online?

Do you have anything to say?

Darren, have you any idea of the hurt this will cause?

- It's just a few pictures.

- There's dozens of them, Darren.

- These images are poison, and what you've done is...

it's just so disrespectful.

What's your mother going to say when she finds out about this?

- That's the last thing she's going to care about. - Oh, really?

Get Darren Hughes's mother on the phone.

I want her in my office this afternoon.

And dig out Darren's file.

Oh, and sort out some cover for Nikki in the cooler

and tell her to meet me in the lecture theatre. - Yeah, course.

- Also, I help out with breakfast club in school.

- And would you say you were a confident person?

- Yeah, I would.

- And what stops you being over-confident?

- I wouldn't say I was cocky or nothing.

Well, you've got to listen to other people, haven't you? - Absolutely.

So, when we're listening to other people,

why do you think the police force places so much importance

on diversity and community awareness?

- You can't serve your public if you don't know who they are.

- How do you handle diversity?

How would you deal with someone, say, of a different religion,

or sexual orientation?

- My sister, she almost had a sex change, that didn't throw me.

- But how would that affect you as a police officer?

- Well...it's like in school - people have got different needs

and you've got to be aware of that.

It's the same with the police.

You've got to learn about different cultures and different views.

Only then you can help the community effectively.

- And when did you last demonstrate a high level of leadership skills?

- In school we did a resilience camp.

It was in the woods,

and we had to split off into groups to make it back to base camp.

I helped my team make it back.

I rallied people up, even when they'd had enough.

- And did you all get back safely? - Yeah. We made it back first.

My team won. - Good.

- This morning, we confiscated a mobile phone from another pupil.

His phone had indecent images on it.

I'm afraid all of you have been identified in those images.

- (I know who it is.)

- Some of you probably know who this person is - I would

appreciate your discretion in keeping his identity confidential.

- He took pictures of us and we don't even know it? How many?

- A lot.

- He's violated our rights. What are you going to do about it?

- I will be contacting your parents and guardians, the police,

if necessary. We will stamp it out.

Even if it means a complete ban on mobile phones in school. - No way.

I'm not giving up my phone cos some sicko wants to take photos.

- Any steps we need to take will only have your welfare at heart.

- Our zero tolerance policy on sexual harassment

and pornography in this school will be reinforced.

I promise you, it stops now.

The boy concerned will be severely dealt with.

In the meantime, Miss Boston and I will be on hand if any of you

need to talk in confidence, and pastoral care will be fully staffed.

Any questions?

- All right, go for your break.

As Mrs Mulgrew said, we're here if you need to talk.

- If I find out who it is, he's dead.

- They won't tell us.

- Yeah? Try Darren Hughes.

- My sister's a really good boxer,

but we couldn't afford to get her the proper training.

- So how did you raise the money?

- I organised a clean up of the school.

A lot of kids volunteered and we raised tonnes of sponsorship money.

- And a clean school into the bargain. - Yeah.

- Good. Where do you see yourself in five years' time, Dynasty?

- Well, I see myself rising through the ranks.

I'm good at working with people. I'm a hard worker and I learn fast.

I really want this. I know I can do it.

- One last question.

What would you do if you had to arrest someone you knew -

say, a friend or someone close? What about a family member?

- Well, if they broke the law, I'd treat them the same as anyone else.

Just cos I knew them, doesn't mean I'd let them get away with it.

- Are you sure you'd be able to actually arrest

a member of your own family?

It wouldn't be an easy thing to do. - I'd do it.

If it's wrong, it's wrong. No question about it.

- Thank you, Miss Barry.

That's the end of our questions. Do you have anything to ask us?

- Yeah. When will I know?

- Successful candidates will be informed in a few weeks' time. - OK.

Thanks. - I'll show you out.

- Thanks again. - Our pleasure.

Some of the questions were tricky in there, especially

the one about your family, but you handled it very well.

- Do you think? Thanks.

- You're a good liar.

Just like your father.

- I'll be sending out a letter to all pupils

and parents detailing the measures we'll take in response.

I'd like both of you to work with Simon to head up

a pastoral care plan to roll out to form tutors and the schoolhouse.

- Of course.

- From now on, anyone found with offensive material will

be referred to the police.

- Well, I think Darren should be referred to the police right now.

- I'm not sure that's the right way forward.

The family are already known to social care.

Getting the police involved could be a disaster.

- Maggie, you were there this morning. Anything you'd like to add?

- Well, Darren's not a bad kid, is he, really?

I mean, he's daft, and he's made a huge mistake.

But if we get the police involved,

it's only going to make things worse. - Oh, please(!)

- I'll be talking to Darren's mum today,

hopefully we can avoid the police for now.

Be in no doubt, Nikki, if I have to contact them I will.

- Sorry, Christine, I can't get hold of Mrs Hughes

on any of her contact numbers,

and we haven't got a record of a work number.

- Plan A's going well. - Then we go to Plan B.

- All right?

- How'd it go, then?

- Bad.

- They give you a hard time?

They're pigs. What'd you expect?

You OK?

- Suppose so.

- Are you sure you want to go back to school?

Take the day off and chill a bit.

- No, I don't want to. If I stay off, I'll think about it more.

- OK, well, you want a lift in, then?

- Is that your van? - Yeah.

Go and get changed and I'll take you. Go on.

Listen, this police stuff? Forget it, sis.

It's not for people like us. You don't need them, anyway.

- We're having trouble getting hold of your mum, Darren.

Any idea where she might be?

- No. Don't know.

- She's not answering her phone and we've left lots of messages.

- I don't know where she is.

- You're going to have to tell me sometime.

What about her work? Does she have a job?

Shall I take that as a no?

OK, Darren, come with me.

- What? Where to?

- Your house. We're going to speak to your mum in person.

- But you can't go to my house.

- And why's that?

- We've just moved in.

- What's your new address?

- I don't know. - No problem. You can show me.

I'm sure you know where you live. - Oh, no, miss. Please. You can't!

- Darren, is there something you need to tell me?

- My mum's really ill.

- How ill?

- She's...dying. She doesn't like visitors.

- Why didn't you tell me this before?

When was she diagnosed?

- I can't remember. Miss, please, I need to ring her

to warn her you're coming.

She'll just get a shock and it'll make things worse.

Can I have my phone, please?

- Darren, I am very sorry to hear your mother is ill.

But I still need to speak to her.

- Rhiannon!

- What? He is one.

Every girl in this school's got a right to know it's him.

- Ah, Mrs Mulgrew. Shall we meet at the restaurant,

or would you like me to chauffeur you...

- What is going on?

- Mmmm. Very subtle(!) - Hope you're chucking him out, miss.

- And stay out, perv. Out, out, out!

ALL: Out! Out! Out! Out!

- Enough! Enough.

Don't just stand there, George, deal with this.

This situation isn't going to get any better, Darren.

It's your choice.

Are you going to help me sort this or not?

Good. Come on.

- So what's Golding trying to say in Lord Of The Flies?

What about the setting?

- Well, they've crash landed on a coral island,

and it's supposed to be this big beautiful place,

but it turns out it's not. - Because? - Because of boys.

- What's he saying about the human condition?

- There's a darker side to us all.

- Especially boys who take pictures, right, Lenny? - I didn't take any.

- He was your mate, you knew what he was getting up to.

- He showed me.

- That makes you a perv as well. - I told him it was wrong.

- Just leave him alone, will you?

- Whooo! Sticking up for a sicko, are we?

- All right, all right, enough.

- Perv, perv, perv, perv.

- He just said he had nothing to do with it!

- I said enough!

- It's horrible though, miss.

Knowing he's been watching us the whole time.

Makes me feel dirty.

- I know. And he won't get away with it.

- What about us?

We're getting the blame for something we didn't even do.

- We're not all saddos. - Bet you all looked at the pictures though.

- Why would I want to look at pictures of you?

- All right, I'm sure that you didn't.

But some of you need to change your attitudes and fast.

The girls in this school are your classmates. They are not objects.

- Tell them, miss.

- And you girls need to trust that we will sort this.

- So. Nouns. Masculine or feminine?

The age-old problem.

Good of you to join us, girls.

Finished cleaning up after your direct action?

Gabriella, if you could hand those out?

You cannot simply guess whether something is masculine or feminine.

There are no short cuts. So you have to basically just learn them.

- Ooh, nice little pile, sir.

Mummy and Daddy are looking for a pied-a-terre in London.

- Yes, not sure how that slipped in there.

- He's still not getting away with this.

- I really think the school needs to deal with this now.

- Sorry, ladies, are we boring you?

- We want to know what the school's going to do about Darren Hughes.

- Well, it is very upsetting,

but this is French, not pastoral care.

- Sir, it's completely freaking us out. It's minging.

I feel like I'm being stalked.

- Oh, please. What do you expect from the boys in this dump?

Though I'm surprised he took a picture of either of you two.

That was a joke.

- Yes, thank you, we are trying to rectify the situation.

- How would you like it if he took a picture of you?

- He'd have to be fairly desperate.

I abhor sneaky individuals with hidden cameras

as much as anyone else.

But we cannot fight the battle of the sexes here.

- But we need to... - Unless it's in noun form.

Which is what this test is all about.

- A test? How tedious.

- Come on.

- I am gutted. I really wanted to make something of myself.

- Don't worry. In a few months, I'll be proper minted.

I'll see you right.

- Is that what the van's for? What's going on?

- Oi, never you mind what, it's going to set me up big time.

- Urgh, what does she want?

- Wow, Barry, nice wheels. Are they all yours?

- It's for work, actually.

- So this "big new job" - a white van man, how thrilling(!)

- I'll be driving my own Porsche when I get back.

- Not unless you steal it first.

- Take no notice of her.

MOBILE RINGS

- All right.

What, it's in now? Already?

Two o'clock?

OK, I'll see you at the docks then. Warehouse 47. Sound.

- The docks? What you going there for? Barry? - I'll be in touch, OK?

- You still here?

- Thought I could get ahead on my lesson prep.

Prove to Christine that I'm serious about making it up to you all.

- You having lunch?

- I thought I'd better keep a low profile.

- Don't be daft. According to Lenny Brown, you're a legend. Come on.

- Hi, love. How did you get on?

- It was a car crash.

As soon as they knew my name was Barry, that was it.

- They can't do that. Sue them. Get compo.

- Like I'm going to do that. Bet you're happy now, aren't you?

- That's not true, love.

- Let's be honest, you never wanted me to join, did you?

- I just didn't want you to be disappointed, that's all.

It was never the right job for you, anyway.

- How'd you mean?

- Face it, love. You're more holiday rep than plod.

Why not get yourself a little job in Ibiza? - Are you kidding me?

- Or an air stewardess? You could bag yourself a pilot.

- Mum! I'm with Kevin.

- I know. I know. It's just, you're such a beautiful girl.

You don't need the police.

Something better will come along. Something more suited to you.

- See you later. - See you later.

- Just in time. A portion of your finest chicken curry, please.

- We're all out.

Try the Ashmont.

- DOG BARKS

SIREN WAILS

- OK, Darren, which one is it?

- Miss, miss? My mum kind of works from home, right.

She hates being disturbed.

- I'm sure she won't mind, under the circumstances.

- WOMAN: - All right, all right, someone's keen...

What you doin' here? I thought you were a...

Who are you? - My name is Christine Mulgrew.

I'm the Head of Waterloo Road. Maybe we could come in?

- Um...

What's she doing here? You brought the school round?

- Aw, I tried to stop her!

- Well, you can't stay, because I'm busy. What's he done?

- Your son has been caught with indecent images on his phone.

Photos and videos of girls at school,

taken without their knowledge or consent.

This isn't the first time we've seen inappropriate behaviour from Darren.

- OK, well, can we just speed this up a bit?

I've got someone coming in a minute.

- They'll have to wait, Mrs Hughes, because I'm not going anywhere until we've sorted this out.

- Kevin's going to be so disappointed in me.

- I'm sure he won't be. It's not your fault.

- Dynasty? How did it go?

- They treated her really badly. - What?

- I don't want to talk about it. - Hey, hey!

I think you should tell me exactly what happened.

These people - that is so narrow-minded and stupid.

- I'm the stupid one,

thinking I could get in in the first place.

- We are going to fight this. You cannot let them drag you down. I'll give you a character reference.

- I don't want to. - You're one of the brightest pupils in this school.

You're motivated, hard working - what else do they want,

for goodness' sake? - She was right about me.

She might have been a horrible witch, but she was right.

I've got no place in the police.

- No, no, you listen, you can't let people judge you on your family.

You're not responsible for your dad or Barry, you're different to them.

You've got principles, for a start.

- Have I?

- Yeah, you have.

What makes you different is that you want to do the right thing -

and not just for yourself, but for others.

That's who you are, that's what's in your DNA.

You can't just ignore that.

- DOOR OPENS

- What is it?

- Peace offering. Frothy coffee just the way you like it.

- Thank you.

- I hate us falling out like this.

And I'm sorry, I was out of order about your lunch with Christine.

- It never happened, anyway. I'm still in her bad books.

- As long as I'm not in yours.

- Not here.

- Come on, babe, I can't bear this. You going to forgive me or not?

So, you going to take me out tonight?

- Well, I guess I could phone the Ashmont. I feel a bit foolish having cancelled them once already.

- I don't need any of those fancy places.

As long as I've got you, I'm happy.

- OK. See you later, then.

- Oh, what's this?

- Nothing. Just my mum's old house.

- Poor you, having to deal with everything.

It must be so stressful for you.

- Yeah. - A nice relaxing drink'll help.

- Yeah, I'm sure it will.

- Look, I understand it's difficult bringing up a child on your own,

especially a boy.

- We're doing fine.

- I've had my fair amount of trouble with my own son, Connor.

But we got through it, and now...now he's doing great.

- So?

- Mrs Hughes, we have a problem here.

- I'll talk to him tonight, OK?

You've got to go, cos I've got work to do.

- Darren? Will you show your teacher out?

Can I ask who sleeps here? - Why are you asking?

- Why are you being so cagey? - Because it's none of your business.

- I do.

I sleep on the sofa - it's comfy and there I don't have to see the blokes.

- What blokes?

Mrs Hughes?

- KNOCK ON DOOR

- That your work at the door, is it?

You conduct your business in front of your son?

- Who do you think you are?

Why don't you just go back to your cosy little house

and your cosy little son?

- Because Darren has real problems and I think he needs help.

- No, he doesn't.

- My mum's right.

Miss, you can't come in here and tell us what to do.

- Darren. Please, I'm trying to help you.

- No, you're not!

KNOCK ON DOOR

Looking at my mum like she's dirt,

you're no better yourself.

Connor couldn't get away from you fast enough.

Just get out, will you? I didn't want you here in the first place.

- You heard what he said. Get lost!

- KNOCK ON DOOR

BABY CRIES

THUMPING MUSIC UPSTAIRS

- Today, we're going to look at one of the most controversial

figures in the French Revolution.

Marie Antoinette.

- Please, nobody mention the word cake.

- Good point.

There are two ways of seeing this woman,

either as somebody spoiled, cut off from ordinary life.

Or, as a victim of her class and gender.

A victim of history.

That was very good homework, by the way.

You should join your work group.

- I'm fine on my own.

- Where's Dynasty?

- Marie Antoinette was cultured.

She was beautiful, so people were jealous of her.

- No wonder. She had everything, they had nowt.

- Like she had any choice.

She was pushed into marriage, forced to live somewhere new,

and then blamed for everything that went wrong.

- She weren't exactly innocent. - She was a scapegoat.

She lost two of her children.

Nobody cared about her feelings.

Just because you're privileged doesn't mean life's easy,

and it doesn't mean you're always to blame.

BELL RINGS

- Right, we will pick up on that next

lesson.

I had no idea you were so passionate about Marie Antoinette.

- I just like winding people up. - Really? Is that what it was about?

If you want to talk to me, my door's always open.

- I don't think so.

- The offer's there if ever you want it.

- Miss, I think you're needed in the library.

- Put that down at once!

- It's not fair, Miss.

We've not heard anything.

It's been a week and she hasn't e-mailed, called, nothing.

- I know, but that's not a reason to take your frustrations

out on the library.

Oh, Harley, we have to be patient.

We will hear from Lula again, but when Lula is ready.

For now, we wait.

- Wait?! So we do nothing?

This school sucks.

Mrs Budgen, she did something and she got suspended.

It's just not fair.

- Will you please calm down, Harley?

- No.

- Look, I have told you, I don't have his file on hand

and I don't have the name of his social worker,

but I have just been round there.

Darren Hughes needs serious help. I'm worried for his safety. Can...?

Thank you.

- SHE SIGHS

PHONE RINGS

'Hey, Mum. I can't talk right now.

'I'll give you a call you another time.'

- OK. No problem.

- PHONE BEEPS

- Yeah.

Everything's running smooth.

Cargo's loaded.

Yeah, I'm just about to get some now.

All right.

All right.

Well, you know me... I'm all heart.

- METAL CLANGS

Get out!

Go on, move it!

Get out! Get out!

Just get out! Get out!

THEY SPEAK UKRAINIAN

- Where we go to?

- I don't know. Where's he taking you?

- Liverpool. We work in hotel.

- No. Look, whatever he's promised you, it won't happen.

Come on, you need to get out.

You need to get out of the van. He's going to be back in a minute. Get out!

ALL TALK OVER EACH OTHER

- Er...

I'm going to ask you something a bit strange.

I'm going to ask you to get me one drink

and you are not allowed to serve me anything more, no matter what I say.

In fact, if I keep asking you, I want you to throw me out.

Have you got that?

Good.

Large vodka. No ice.

- You can't do this. Where you taking them? This is so messed up.

- It's not your problem.

- Some are our age, younger even.

- They asked to be here. Nobody made them.

What are you even doing here? You need to go.

Just go. - You could help them escape.

- This isn't a game.

I've have a job to do and I'm going to do it right.

You know if I don't...

then I'll be hunted. - The police, they'll protect you.

- Wake up! Do you really think that they are going to watch my back?

- Barry, please, don't turn out like our dad.

- Well, I won't, because I won't get caught.

- But you don't know that. - Look, this is my chance, OK?

My chance to be someone.

- You don't need to prove yourself to us.

You don't need to prove yourself to anyone.

Please, Barry, don't go through with it. - Dynasty...

I love you, but just don't test me.

- I'm begging you.

- Just move! - It's not right!

Hi, police, please.

Dynasty Barry.

- They said you wanted to see me. - Yes.

- I'm sorry, miss, about before. It's just...

- It's just totally understandable.

Now, what do you think?

We are going to scan some study material and e-mail it to Lula,

and when I say "we" I mean "you", because the school scanner

and I are not particularly au fait.

- What's the point, miss?

Lula isn't picking up any of my e-mails.

- Here was I thinking you wanted to do something.

And you will see Lula again, I'm sure of that.

Probably when she becomes President.

- I really appreciate you doing these letters.

- It's taken me all afternoon to print them out. - Thank you.

Still no word from Christine? - Should have been back by now.

- All right, Dynasty? - No.

But I will be.

I did it.

I shopped Barry to the police.

I need to tell my mum.

- Do you think I should go after her?

- No, no, I think she'll be all right.

I'll see you tomorrow, all right? I've got a phone call to make.

- All right.

- About before, I'm sorry I was a bit off with you. - Not at all.

- You said your door was always open.

- Whatever it is, it's always better to talk about it.

- Well, I'm not here to talk, actually.

I'm here to give you this. - And what is this?

- Open it.

It's to thank you for offering to help - I really do appreciate it.

If you don't like it I can change it.

- It's beautiful, but you don't have to give this to me.

I'm always happy to listen, you know that.

- Are you heading off? I'll walk out with you.

All right, Gabriella? Haven't you got a home to go to?

- Please, I really want you to keep it.

- OK.

Thank you. - See you tomorrow, Ms McFall.

- Everything all right?

- She's just given me this.

I think we should keep a really close eye on that one.

- What's happened?

- Mum...

..it's Barry. - What?

- I tried, but he wouldn't listen. - What are you talking about?

- They're going to arrest him.

I called the police.

- You did what?

- He's smuggling people into the country.

- Oh, don't be daft. - I saw them in the back of his van!

He's trying to take them to Liverpool, women, girls,

some as young as Kacey. - No, he wouldn't.

He does stupid things, but...

If that's what he's doing then someone is making him.

- Just listen to yourself. Excuses. Open your eyes.

- He'll go to prison for that.

- Well, if he does, it's his own fault.

I can't pretend like nothing's happening - I won't.

- No, love, you're right.

If that's what he's doing, then he's on his own.

- You mean it?

- Ah, Cinders, your carriage awaits.

- Hey, Dynasty.

I've just spoken to the police.

- They caught Barry?

- No, actually it was their HR department.

I put your case to them and they're taking it very seriously.

The interviews are taking place all week and they said they can fit

you in for another go, if that's what you want.

- Yeah, it's what I want.

- I swear I didn't know anything about it. - No, course not.

- I'd have done the same as our Dynasty, but...

..he's still my son.

- Let me take you home. - No.

I don't want to be on my own.

Will you take me for that drink?

- You sure?

- Yeah, just give us a few minutes to sort my face out

and I'll meet you out the front. - OK.

- PHONE RINGS

- Oh, Barry, pick up.

Dynasty's grassed you up.

- INAUDIBLE

- And you know what?

I don't blame her.

You run with the dogs, Barry, you're going to get bit.

I love you so much...

- INAUDIBLE

- ..but there's nothing I can do for you now.

- I dread to think of the calls we'll get once parents have

read their "obscene images" letters.

- Yeah, can't say I'm looking forward to it much myself.

- I reckon we've got the weekend to come up with a whole

programme for PSHE lessons.

- Well, count me in.

It's not like I've got anything better to do this weekend.

- Still no word from Vix?

- Nope.

Evidently my letter-writing skills leave a lot to be desired.

- Look, it'll take time, but I'm sure she'll come round.

- Have you heard anything from Christine?

- No, she never came back. - Isn't that odd?

- I'm guessing things went badly with Darren's mum

and she's gone straight to Child Services.

She'll be up to her neck in paperwork, most likely.

- INAUDIBLE

# I'm wasted, losing time

# I'm a foolish, fragile spine

# I want all that is not mine

# I want him but we're not right

# In the darkness I will meet my creators... #

She's not unwell, is she? - Uh, no, she's fine, just otherwise engaged.

- I got on an earlier flight, thought I'd surprise you.

- Babe!

- Look, Christine, I hope you take this in the spirit which it's

intended, but...

you need to go home.

- Kevin pees in a bag now, I can smell it from here.

- You're sick, do you know that?

- Thank you for your loyalty, Simon.

- Christine? - No, I'm going to leave you two

to your mutual-appreciation society.

Some of us have a school to run.
