FOOTSTEPS APPROACHING

Amba... don't forget your PE kit - it's in the kitchen on the island,

I'm going to the car.

Amba!

What do you want?

I just wondered how your dad was doing today?

Well, he's putting on a brave face,

but he's still pretty cut up about it.

Maybe I can take you both for breakfast, you know,

once you've dropped Amba off?

Al, I don't want you in my life - breakfast or any other meal.

If I can't give Kim that missing money back soon...

she'll have me arrested.

Then I really will be out your life, forever.

All this is down to you, no-one else. I know.

And I don't blame you for setting me up.

Do you know, I honestly thought what we had was real.

It is...

Was. Please, spare me the self pity.

Look, I-I know I've ruined your life,

but I can't believe you wanna see me locked up.

Of course I don't. But there's nothing I can do about it now.

Amba!

JAI: Hey! FRONT DOOR SHUTS

That's all the kids dropped off.

And I phoned Kim, told her I'm not coming in to work today.

Thank you.

What have you been up to?

Go back to bed? Or out for a walk?

Well, I haven't been to the shop to buy a bottle of vodka

if that's what you're asking. You can smell this if you want.

I'm just worried about you.

And I'm trying to be supportive.

You know, I'm your bloke, not your sponsor,

and if you want to get yourself a drink, well...

you'll find a way, won't you? I just feel ashamed, Jai,

that I didn't have the courage to tell you I wasn't coping.

I thought counselling'd help,

not send you running for a bottle of vodka.

Well, it's not your fault.

I just didn't realise how hard this was gonna be.

I mean, it's... it's hard enough making the decision

and having to go through with it,

but then you have to actually live with it... afterwards.

I will always feel so guilty.

Knowing how you feel about it now...

would you have wanted us to make a different decision?

No, I wouldn't.

Neither would I.

Hi, can I treat you two to a coffee?

I'll treat you cos we're celebrating.

Ethan's just got some good news.

I wasn't going to be so tactless, Dad,

seeing as Harriet's thinking about quitting her own job. But...

I got the solicitor's role I applied for.

Wow, congratulations!

Well, I've got some news as well.

I've decided not to leave the church.

And that's all down to you two.

I'm so grateful for all your support and advice.

You'd really be such a loss to the church.

Ha. Well, I think we'll agree to differ on that one.

Good. Well, you'd better deliver,

cos my patience is wearing very thin.

Oh, Lady Tate, never a pleasure.

I was gonna buy you flowers.

Well, a wreath, but that still counts, right?

Enjoy your Scottish breakfast. Oh...

I love the smell of racism in the morning (!)

It's a gift, for Jamie.

Oh, he's not allowed to come out and play yet, is he?

Ah, Moira, he naively thinks I won't have him arrested.

Well, you'd have done it already, wouldn't you?

Oh, there's still time. And if you're locked up,

you won't be able to bother me or my son.

Don't get too used to having him around.

Just can't help yourself, can you?

And stay away from Jamie, and stop pushing her buttons

because Kim is holding all the cards here.

Ah, don't worry, she won't be

after I finish my search and destroy mission

at Chez Tate in a bit.

I'm gonna find that CCTV footage and destroy it.

Aye, well, you need to be careful. Ah, don't you worry, I will be.

Priya...

Priya?

What I said about Kim earlier, it wasn't a dig.

I'm not judging you for what you did to me.

I was hurt...

..and angry.

And I didn't want you to just turn on the charm

and lie your way out of it. So you helped Debbie set me up?

It's OK.

I don't blame you for a second. No?

I've destroyed your entire life.

You've lost everything, you could go to prison.

OK, so, look, it just... it got out of hand.

You just lashed out, OK?

Look, I made a good person commit fraud.

And we both know that's not who you are.

Yeah, well, obviously. I don't feel good about it!

I must've been crazy... crazy to throw away what we had.

You know I love you, Priya.

It's always been you.

I would really love to believe that.

But you're a liar. No, no, I never lied about THAT.

Meet me for lunch... at The Hide.

If, for no other reason,

than just to get some proper, proper closure.

I'll give you an hour.

DOOR SHUTS

Hey, Kim... it's me.

Yeah, I got your message.

It's all in hand.

You'll get your money.

If all goes according to plan...

..you'll have it by this afternoon.

What are YOU up to?

No good. HE CHUCKLES

Kidding on.

Er, I've got a job to do up at the big house,

and, er, Jamie forgot to give me his spare key.

You don't work for the Tates any more. Oh, OK, busted.

Maybe you could let me in with your key.

I left my beanie up there. Why don't you ask Jamie to get it for you?

Well, my mum gave it to me, so it's got sentimental value.

And I'll be in and out in no time,

and you and me are practically family anyway, so...

If Kim found out, she'd sack me on the spot.

Well, she'll never know. Come on.

Don't be tight, Mrs Jobsworth.

You are Moira's brother, so, er...

..let's just pretend we never had this conversation.

I know nothing.

Come on.

Afternoon, Mrs Tate, I've left the receipt

for the curtain hooks in an envelope on your desk.

Thanks, Lydia. Go and have a cup of tea on the house.

So why has Jai not come in again? Gone part-time or something?

Family problem.

Annoying, cos he was gonna soften up a contact of his - Greg.

Ah. A wealthy investor I was hoping to reel in.

Well, I mean, I could call Greg, take him out for dinner?

I appreciate the offer,

but I don't think you're quite ready to net the big fish yet.

I know the business inside and out... No.

I don't need you losing me a potential investment.

Are you sure you're OK closing the cafe?

This is more important than our punters' caffeine withdrawals.

And it won't take long.

If you're worried, I could tell her.

No offence, Nico, but I don't want this escalating into a row.

All right, fine, just don't bottle out of it.

Sit.

We got the teas in. Ha.

Er, you remember my wife, Nicola? Of course. Hi.

I should've bought those.

Oh, it's OK, we own the cafe now.

Part-own it. I'm still in haulage, and Nicola's a local councillor.

Wow. That must be quite a juggle with all those kids.

Well, when you've run a family alongside your business

for as long as we have, it's easy.

Of course. Look, erm, I didn't mean anything by that,

I'm just, er... I'm just nervous.

Have you made a decision about allowing me to see Carl?

Me turning up out of the blue must have been a shock,

but I'm in a much better place now.

Jimmy knows that I'm single again and I feel ready

to make space in my life for him now.

He's not a yoga practice.

He's still very young, he won't understand,

and there's no rush, is there?

I've already missed so much.

I was shocked when I saw how big he'd got.

When did you see Carl?!

At the school gates, the other day.

You've been stalking our son? That is SO creepy.

It wasn't like that. I just...

I just watched you picking him up,

but I was careful to keep my distance.

I wasn't doing any harm. Then why didn't you tell us?

Because you knew it was bang out of order!

It makes me wonder what else you're capable of.

There's no way we can trust you anywhere near Carl now.

I was just curious, and he didn't even see me.

No. Nicola's right.

Who's to say you won't lure him away for a burger next time?

To New York! I'm not gonna kidnap him.

How do we know that? I might have handled this badly,

but there's no need to overreact.

The answer's no.

You're not seeing Carl, and that's final.

I don't wanna cause any trouble, so...

..I'll just have to accept that.

I'm sorry.

Well, I was feeling sorry for her before, but not any more.

She's a flake.

Mark my words, Jimmy... she'll only change her mind again.

And we can't put Carl through that.

Ooh, you look glamorous. Is that a new outfit?

This? Erm, oh, no, no, it's years old.

I spilt some coffee, so I went home for a quick change.

Is that one of those mindfulness ones?

I don't know about that, but me and Sam love doing these.

Hey, Kim won't mind if I take it home.

What are you pilfering now?

Mm, don't forget the crayons.

More grand larceny.

Oh, relax. Al must think I'm an idiot,

if he expects me to believe that you set him up.

I mean, you haven't got it in you to be a criminal mastermind.

Or have you?

Of course not. Ha, I know, it's almost funny.

Besides, your lying, thieving ex rang me this morning,

practically admitted he did it.

Told me that if all goes to plan,

he'll be able to give me my money back today. Mm!

Hey.

I was afraid you may have changed your mind.

Have you ordered yet?

Actually, erm...

I thought we could go somewhere more private.

We need to be able to talk more freely.

So, shall we go back to my place?

I am so sorry.

No, wait, let me say this.

I can't imagine how shocked and hurt you must have been

when you found out.

I get why you felt the need to punish me.

Well, believe me...

that kind of deception doesn't come easily.

It's been killing me, in fact. I can see that.

And I know Debbie put you up to it.

You know, she's jealous, spiteful.

She knows you're the love of my life and that she was just a fling.

You know Debbie came on to me. You could've said no.

Why didn't you? Were you flattered?

This is all about your vanity, admit it.

I'd have ended it with Debbie a long ago,

but I had to keep the plates spinning,

so that you wouldn't find out. I was trying to spare you that hurt.

Well, you should've taken your chances and come clean.

Cos all I'm hearing here are excuses,

and a pathetic attempt at self-preservation.

So just get out. No, no, wait, wait, wait, OK?

I'm a flawed man, OK?

I admit it.

I am a liar and a cheat.

And a complete coward.

Wow, at last.

I'm starting to hear something I can believe.

Yeah, but you make me want to change.

You know, to be a better person.

And I know I-I need to look deep inside

because with your help, I can be a better man.

Look, I CAN make you happy.

And I wanna believe that so much.

And I haven't stopped loving you.

You CAN believe in me again.

I told you, I can make this right for all of us.

We can have our happy ever after.

That's all I've ever wanted.

But I don't know how we're gonna get out of this mess...

..but I'm listening.

So, obviously, you know what we've been going through lately,

but there is something else.

You're not ill, are you? No.

I started drinking again.

What? It was just a relapse, and I've stopped.

Well, good, but...

I thought you were over that, like, yonks ago.

We're all a work in progress, Gabby. Yeah, no, of course, it's just...

Well, I was stood there telling you how proud I was of you

and you never said a word.

When you started telling me everything I'd coped with,

I just felt ashamed that I was letting you all down, I'm sorry.

The important thing is that, well, you're getting help now

and you can start to work through your steps again.

Yeah, we're all here for you. Me, Jai and the boys.

That means the world.

And also, me and Jai have been talking about

him and Archie moving in. Oh, no, not more smelly boys?

Well, if you girls weren't hogging the bathroom all the time!

Well, you'd know because you practically live here anyway, so...

No, but I think it's a great idea, honestly.

Well, that means the world. I just need to run it past the kids.

Run what past us? Oh... Er....

So, me and your mum have been talking again

about me and Archie moving in here, permanently.

I mean, I know Archie'll be up for it, but,

well, it's a family decision, so...

I mean, and obviously I'm not trying to replace your dad or anything.

It's OK, I know you're not. I think it'd be sick.

That's good, right? JAI CHUCKLES

Off he goes... Yeah, you two should have done this ages ago,

but, erm, it's gonna get a bit crowded -

bathroom wars aside -

so maybe I'll just move back into Gran's?

No, you don't need to do that! Please, don't.

We'll make it work. No, it's fine.

I mean, I quite fancy my own space anyway.

But I'll be round, all the time. Well, only if you're sure?

Brilliant! Well, I'll tell Archie after school today,

and then we can have a family night together, to celebrate.

Maybe we can start again, you know, somewhere new.

Away from Debbie and these... these bad memories.

Just you, me and Amba.

What about Ellis? You came back for him, didn't you?

Of course he can come with us.

But those are just details we can iron out later, right?

We both know you didn't give that cash to Leyla.

And I can see you wanna fix this as much as I do.

Look, hey, there's only one thing standing in our way

and that's that missing money.

SHE EXHALES

I'm so stupid.

I've ruined everything.

No, no, you haven't, and look, it's-it's easily fixed.

Look, Kim just wants her money back.

Well, I can get the cash... today.

But will she let you just get away with it?

What if I, er, told her the truth?

That I was a woman scorned - I mean, she'll understand that.

Revenge is her second name, after all.

Yeah, I mean, she'll-she'll let you off the hook.

If you're sure?

Yeah.

I mean, I set you up, it's the least I can do.

But you, erm... you will come with me, though?

Yeah, of course, of course.

We'll get the money first? No, no, let's, erm...

let's go there first... before I change my mind.

I'll let her know that she can have the money back today.

All right, mate?

You look like you could do with some cheering up.

Thanks, but, er... gonna head home in a bit, so...

Well, let me guess...

..your mum...

..what's she done now? Nothing.

I wanted to meet with a local business angel and, er...

..she thinks I'll mess it up.

Why? You practically ran this place while she was away.

Yeah, I know. But there's no point arguing with her.

Look, mate, I'm not trying to tell you what to do here,

but your mum drastically underestimates you.

Yeah, she really does.

Maybe I should meet with him anyway and bag that investment myself.

Well, I would love to see the look on her face

when you walk back in here with a big fat cheque.

Yeah...

Me too.

So I guess, er...

thank you, coach, for the half-time talk.

Always a pleasure, Mr Tate.

I've rescheduled an important meeting

so this better be good.

And why are YOU here? Moral support?

Have you got my money?

There won't be any retaliations or consequences

once you get the money back, will there?

Al's in no position to dictate terms,

but I need to hear his confession before I decide that.

I gave you this great opportunity. So, why?

It's OK, Priya, you can tell her.

Tell her what? Well, that you committed the fraud

and tricked me into withdrawing the cash.

Look, Kim, she's-she's sorry, she just wants to put things right.

PRIYA SCOFFS

Why are you saying that?

You ran up debts, you were desperate.

OK, just tell the truth for once.

Kim, OK, look, he asked me to come with him,

to persuade you not to involve the police.

I felt sorry for him and now he's just trying to frame me, again!

She is lying. No...

Why are you doing this to me?

OK, Kim, he is the one who is lying, I promise you.

I'm not. It's the truth, honestly. You set me up.

I can't believe this.

Isn't it enough that you betrayed me with Debbie?

Al, please, OK? I could go to prison, I could lose Amba.

I didn't do anything. She's putting this on, I swear.

Look, she promised me that she'd confess.

This is just more of her sick payback.

Look, Kim, you know he is the one who is lying, not me.

She might've been born yesterday, but I wasn't.

This is low. Even for you, Al. You can't play a player.

My patience has now officially run out.

I want my money, or YOU will be going to prison.

See yourselves out.

What was that?

You seriously underestimated me, didn't you?

The fraud wasn't Debbie's idea... it was mine.

I got your passwords, I made the bank transfers,

I even persuaded you to put your grubby little fingerprints

all over the money to leave a paper trail.

You had your revenge. Why do this to me?!

All the love-bombing, the sincere apologies,

the empty promises...

More lies just to get me to hand over that money.

It doesn't have to be like this. Oh, but it does.

So, save your lies and your begging for Kim,

cos you are never gonna see a penny of that money.
