[children screaming
indistinctly in distance]

[keys clacking]

- [exhales deeply]

- So are we still on
for date night on Thursday?

Some mentally hot lasagne
at The Roebuck?

- Yeah.
- Great, sure.

[screaming continues
in distance]

[dramatic music]

Sure.
Yes.

You say sure,
but you don't sound very sure.

You don't think we're making
progress in these sessions?

No... I mean, yes, we are.

Um...

well, I try, you know?

I have a problem,

and we've talked

about "strategies"
to deal with it.

But sometimes, parents get
angry with their kids.

Do you know what I mean?
Like, all parents.

Maybe not as much as me,
but they do.

That is just a fact.

You put "strategies"
in inverted commas.

I did, yes.

I find most of this stuff
belongs in inverted commas,

to be honest.

[dramatic music]

[screaming continues
in distance]

That's just...

[screaming growing closer]

[exhales]

Jesus fucking Christ!

How many times do I have
to tell you to be quiet?

? ?

[inhales]

Hey, can you turn it down
please?

Sure.

[video volume lowers]

Is that okay?

Yeah, thank you.
I'm working, so.

What birthday is this?

- Don't you know?
- Yes.

Seven, I think.

- Eight.
- Ah.

You're got a big one
coming up, eh?

- No, I know, Dad.
- I'm me.

Oh, you were eight.

Lukey, that was a good one.

Well, it was stressful
and horrible,

but in retrospect,
it was good.

I look really happy.

Big one coming up, right?

- Yeah.
- I just said that.

I remember my 13th birthday.

I got a really nice camera,
SLR,

and tickets to see
Echo and the Bunnymen

at Brixton Academy.

- What?
- Oh, my God.

I was at that gig.

- Shit, no.
- Were you?

No, of course I wasn't,
you plum.

- 'Cause I would've been six.
- Oh, fuck off.

[all chuckle]

Such a twat.
Such a twat.

I hate all of you.
[all laugh]

Don't disturb me again.

[volume growing]

You should always remember
your 13th birthday.

Snogged Terry Russell.

- Sheesh.
- Well, sounds memorable.

We need a memorable
present too.

- Yeah.
- Well, I was thinking

what about a camera
like I got?

- No one his age has a camera.
- They just use their phones.

No, I know, but you get
much better photographs

with a proper camera,
don't you?

Or... or how about a guitar?

He had those few lessons.

He didn't get on with it
at all though.

No, but that's because
it was classical guitar,

and the bloke was making him
hold it like a fucking lute.

I'm talking a Strat and an amp.

Yeah, okay, maybe.

He's about to become
a teenager.

That is one of the most
teenage-y things

or was... maybe still is?

He'd really like a new phone.

Another fucking...
I know.

You don't remember
a new phone, do you?

It's just the latest in a long
line of forgettable phones.

If Luke gets a new phone,
can I have his old one?

Okay.

A: How did you get there?

And B: I hope
you weren't earwigging

on those other present ideas.

- No, I only heard the phone.
- Honest.

- And three...
- C.

- What?
- C, not Three.

C: No.

No phones until big school,
Ava, we agreed.

You're too young.

Hey, didn't we agree?

Yeah, we did.

Yeah, and don't say that
everyone else has one

'cause they haven't...
Lily hasn't.

She does now.

Oh, Lily's parents caved?

Fucking cowards.
No, I'm sorry, love.

You can spend the rest
of your life on your phone

when you get to big school.

It would mean you'd always
know where I am.

It would give you
peace of mind.

Believe me,
I won't have peace of mind

until some geezer
in a black dress

is giving me the last rights.

Sorry, Ava.

There is no room
for negotiation

on this one, all right?

Mm-kay.

[energetic percussive music]

? ?

- Can I help you?
- Hey, yeah.

I'm just wanting to browse
some semi-pro rigs really.

Not full-on professional,

but not Fisher Price
idiot machines either.

- Budget?
- Uh, 400.

Right.

- To 800-ish.
- Uh, a grand.

That... that sort of figure.

- Okay.
- Yeah.

So we got some room
to maneuver.

Yeah, it's for my son's
13th birthday.

It's the age I was when I got
my first proper camera.

- Oh, right.
- You're a photographer.

- Yeah.
- Yeah, I am.

Sorry, no I'm not.
No.

These days, it's... it's just...
snaps through the phone.

But I used to be pretty good.

- Yeah?
- Yeah!

I had an eye for composition,
you know?

When I got my first
good camera,

I'd take a bus
over to Richmond Park

and just sit there
for hours on my own

photographing birds,
wildlife...

Clouds.

Got a picture
in an exhibition once.

- Okay.
- Only local.

Thames News filmed it.

It didn't go out

because Prince Harry
had just been born,

and the main news overran.

An d your son's
interested in photography?

- Not explicitly.
- No.

But I do feel it's something
that he could really get into.

He's at that age
where he's into everything

and nothing, you know?

Let's start
with the Nikon D7500.

Yep.

- Um...
- And that's this one?

- That's this one, yeah.
- Yeah.

? ?

- PE tomorrow?
- Potato peeler.

No, Tuesday.

Potato peeler.

Good, because your kit
isn't washed yet.

- Bookbag?
- On the table.

- Got it.
- Found the potato peeler.

- I know you were worried.
- [chuckles]

Right.

What's this note?

- Fuck.
- What?

We owe �55
to After School Club.

No, we don't.

"Ava has been late leaving

every day this term."

These are late fees.

Ava, has Luke been late
picking you up?

Has he?

Sometimes.

M-maybe, I think.

Well, I know he goes

to the park
straight after school

'cause I follow him
on my phone,

but he's under strict
instructions to collect Ava.

Luke!

Up here now.

Have you been
picking Ava up late?

Sometimes, yeah.

- Every bloody day, mate.
- Not just sometimes.

I've got this.

It's gonna cost us �55
in late fees.

That is a lot of money.

Why can't Ava walk home
on her own?

They'd let me.

They say it's fine
'cause I'm ten.

I don't need to be picked up.

- Yeah, it's not that far.
- It is!

And it's through
the Hedgefield Estate.

We want someone with her,
and it's on your way.

I can't even believe
that I am explaining this.

You will do as you're told.

Not asked?

- No, mate.
- Fucking told.

You pick Ava up
on time this week

Monday to Friday,

or you don't get your birthday
present, understood?

Seriously, mate.
Do you understand?

- Yes.
- I do understand.

I'll get there on time.

So what are you doing
in the park anyway?

Just hanging out
with your mates?

- Yeah.
- Doing what?

Mate, doing what?
Talking?

Talking, listening to music.

Not smoking, not drinking,
taking drugs?

- No, just talking.
- YouTube videos.

You know you can bring you
r mates back here if you want.

There's bread and cheese.
You could have toasties.

There's tea.

- Sure, yeah.
- Thanks.

Well, I'm meant
to be cooking.

[intriguing music]

? ?

Christ.

How do they cook that lasagne

fucking hotter
than the hobs of hell?

He's a good boy
fundamentally.

[gate creaks]

Paul: I know he is.

Ally: On time
every day so far.

Paul: Yeah, I've been
following him on my phone.

Little blue Luke.

Ally: It's like
he's being tagged

by the probation service

but in a loving way.

And we've not asked him
to paint the moon.

It is a relatively
simple task but still.

Ally: No,
but it's significant.

He's doing what we asked.

He's accepted he did wrong,

and he's putting it right.

- Yeah.
- Yeah, he is.

Fair play to him.

? ?

[door thuds]

- Hello.
- Hi, Mum.

- Hi.
- Everything all right?

Right as rain.

On their screens.

I don't know why you need me
to babysit these days.

They can look
after themselves now.

Well, when Luke's 13, then we
can think about leaving them.

What are you getting him
for his birthday?

Well, I'm thinking a camera.

- Oh!
- Mm.

Like you had.

He won't want a camera, Paul.

He's never asked for a camera.
He wants a phone.

He's got a fucking phone.

- Right.
- I'm gonna go and find them.

Thanks so much.

He's not you, Paul.

He's his own man.

- I know he's not me.
- I'm not saying he's me.

But if he wants a phone,
let him have his phone.

If there'd have been phones
when you were his age,

you would've been doing that
instead of

photographing wrens.

- It wasn't just wrens, was it?
- Why choose wrens?

I should skedaddle.

Oh.

Would you be able to plumb
our new telly in?

Jim had a go, but all you get
is blue stuff.

You mean porn?

No, just... blue.

I don't know how else
to describe it.

Go on.

- Blue.
- Right.

It's all blue.

It's all blue.

Jim tried to set it up.

Well, you should've
waited for me.

Oh.

We don't want to give in
to technology.

We want to understand it.

We're not dead yet.

Oh, that's open to debate,
isn't it?

- Mm.
- Mm.

- Love ya.
- [chuckles]

So that's Lizzie there.

Green top.
Now she's key.

- We direct everything to her.
- Okay.

I think we're
about 85% there,

so this presentation
should just seal the deal.

Great.

I'm a bit nervous.

Don't be.

Just watch what I do;
Chime in if you want.

You've made real progress
the last few weeks, mate.

Everyone in the office
is very happy with you, Jake.

- Thanks, Paul.
- You're all right.

[exhales]

[suspenseful music]

? ?

Oh, you're joking.

Where the fuck is he going?

Fuck!
Right.

Sorry, Jake.

You are gonna have to wing
this one without me, mate.

- Just me?
- In there?

- Sorry, mate.
- Family emergency.

? ?

Luke, what the hell
are you playing?

Fucking voicemail.

? ?

- Oh, hello.
- Excuse me.

Excuse me.
Are you locking up?

I am locking up, yeah.

Ava Worsley?

Ava left
about 15 minutes ago.

She didn't wanna get
her late mark.

- [stammers]
- Who was she with?

She said her brother
was outside.

But she's allowed
to leave on her own.

- She's ten.
- No, I know how old she is.

All right.

Could you maybe call her phone?

- She hasn't got a phone.
- Really?

- What do you mean, "really?"
- What's that?

- Oh, no... nothing.
- It didn't mean anything.

Well, then don't act
like I'm aggressive.

- Sorry.
- I'm not.

And don't say sorry like
you're placating some nutjob.

Fucking hell.

[sighs]

Hey, hon.
Listen.

Luke has deliberately gone down
to the park with his mates,

so Ava's making
her own way home.

I'm gonna drive the route
that I think she'll take.

See if I can spot her.

Uh, yeah.
I'll see you at home.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

Yeah, no.
I... I don't know.

He's a fucking liability
is what's up with him.

[suspenseful music]

? ?

Ava!

Ava, love.

- Hi.
- Oh, Christ.

- When did you get home?
- About ten minutes ago.

- We've been worried sick.
- We didn't know where you were.

I didn't want to get
another late mark,

so I came home on my own.

I was fine.

Yeah, well Luke
should've met you.

- Don't be angry with Luke.
- I was absolutely fine.

- Ava!
- It's okay.

It's okay.
She walked home.

- By herself?
- Mm-hmm.

- Through that estate?
- Where's Luke?

He's in the park
with his mates.

You know this is a test.
He's testing us.

- It is.
- It is a test.

Yeah, well he's gonna find
out the fucking result.

Ava, was this
a deliberate thing

to scare us
into getting you a phone?

- No.
- Don't lie to me.

I'm not a liar.

I'm not calling you a liar.

I am saying
that you might be lying.

You were angry
about late fees,

so I left on time

so you wouldn't have
to pay a late fee.

Now you're angry about that.

I am not angry.

PAUL: I'm angry.

If you're looking
for someone who's angry,

I'm fucking angry.

So Ally's more in control
of her anger?

Um... mostly, yeah.

But sometimes
I have to be good cop.

Do you ever feel
that out of the two of you,

you are required to carry
the burden of anger...

Can I just say... I'm sorry.

I think anger is healthy.

I... I really do believe that.

Yeah, but what
we're exploring here

and what I believe you explored

with your previous therapist...

Mm.

Is how uncontrolled anger

can interfere
with healthy relationships.

My dad will die of some kind

of burst stomach ulcer
guaranteed, right?

There is no history of that
in my family,

but I'm convinced
that's how he'll go.

Because he controls
his anger?

No, because he suppresses it.

He refuses to show it,
but it's still there.

It's eating away at him

like some fucking stomach

fucking squirrel.

And I am not gonna be
like that.

I've spent a lifetime
trying to not be that.

You never wanted
to be your father?

- No.
- Never.

Jesus, it...
who wants to be their father?

[percussive music]

? ?

[suspenseful music]

? ?

Do you realize
how angry I am?

- You wanted to test us?
- Great.

This is what happens.
No birthday present.

- Okay.
- We mean it, Luke.

- No birthday present.
- All right.

- What?
- You don't care?

- I don't know.
- Well, you will care.

You left your sister
to walk home alone.

Anything could have happened.

- She's fine though.
- She's ten.

That's not your decision
to make.

You deliberately went
and hung out with your mates.

You defied us willfully
and deliberately.

No present, seriously.

Don't really want
a present anyway.

- Well, fine.
- You're not gonna get one.

- Dad, don't.
- Ava.

This isn't about you.

Are we done then?

Oh, man.

Don't you fucking dare
give us that attitude.

"Are we done then?"

Don't you dare talk
to me like that.

Mate, you really need
to just...

No birthday at all.

None.

You won't have a 13th birthday.

Just a normal Saturday.

We are forgetting it.

Screw you, Luke,
and this fucking attitude.

No birthday.

- Okay.
- Go to your room.

Don't have a room.

Well, then go
to your fucking area then.

Just go now!

Ava.

No birthday?

Did you hear
his fucking tone?

- Yeah, I did.
- It was unforgivable.

- But no birthday?
- Yeah, yeah.

And no backing out.
No sneaky quiet birthday.

No Anne Frank birthday
up in the attic.

[breathes deeply]

- Agreed.
- Okay.

Mm-hmm.

I'll do us some pasta.

Jackie: No birthday, Paul?

That doesn't sound right.

I don't wanna swear

or make light
of mental illness, Paul,

but that is fucking mental.

Nope.

We set a boundary,
and Luke crossed it.

Is there a picture yet?

- No.
- Okay.

How about now?

- No.
- It's blue still.

You can't cancel
Luke's birthday, Paul.

Cancelling a child's birthday?

Are you in
a fucking Roald Dahl book?

He pushed us too far, Dad.

Ally and I both agreed on this.

No, you're not.

What do you fucking know,
Uri Geller?

I know you two are
decent people, loving parents.

You got pushed into a corner,

and you couldn't back down.

But now you're both feeling
horrible and weird about it.

Thar she blows!

Euston, we have a picture.

- Oh, God.
- It's Houston, Dad.

Not Euston.

This is a fucking huge
telly by the way.

Well, our eyes are not
what they were.

I mean,
they've always been eyes.

They just don't work
as well as they did.

So we wanted to get
the latest TV.

Embrace technology.

We're not giving in
to old age.

- We're not surrendering.
- Oh, good.

Oh, by the way,

would you two be able to pick
up Ava for the next few days

while we sort something out?

- Yeah, of course.
- Thanks.

- You don't think...
- What?

Don't get cross.

You know I can't
guarantee that.

Well, you don't think
you and Ally are scared

of Ava growing up,

so you're still treating her
like a child?

She is a child.

She's very mature
for her age, Paul.

Very sensible.

So you think she should walk
home from school by herself?

- Yes.
- I do.

And have a phone.

I thought your generation
all thought phones were evil?

Like we said,
we want to embrace technology.

Phones are useful things.

All human knowledge
in your pocket.

And Scrabble.

I do like this.

Yeah.

Every parent wants
their child to stay a child

a little bit longer, Paul.

It's understandable.

I'm just saying.

It's the bigger picture.

No, I know, Dad.

It's our feelings,
her feelings.

- No, man.
- That's why I like this telly.

Much bigger picture.

[indistinct
television dialogue]

[pensive piano music]

? ?

- You all right?
- Fine.

? ?

[sighs]

He looks so...

No, I know.

[dramatic music]

No, Paul, I'm really not
asking you to do that.

Well, maybe not,
but it feels like it, okay?

It feels like
you are telling me

that I need to give up
a whole part of myself...

not just the raging,

but the bigger thing
that the raging comes out of

which is a sense of order
and fairness

and how polite we should be

and the discip...
the self-discipline

that we all need.

Am I making sense?

I think so.

I'm not prepared
to give that up

or to compromise it
'cause I value it.

So I'm saying
this is who I am.

And it is what it is.

And I'm sorry to have
wasted your time.

And the previous
therapist's time.

And the one before that.

Well, I hope it
wasn't all time wasted.

It mainly was,
but thanks anyway.

[pensive piano music]

? ?

- Oh, great.
- A phone.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome, mate.

Happy birthday.

Happy birthday.

- Happy birthday.
- Oh, thanks.

A phone case.
Thanks, Ava.

Yeah, I hoped
you might get a phone.

Should we get a nice
birthday takeaway?

- Ooh, yeah.
- For about 7:00?

Great.

Is it all right if I head down
to the park for a bit

with my mates before we eat?

Sure.

- I'll be back on time.
- Okay.

- Have a good one, mate.
- Thank you.

[door opens]

Oh, man.

Will he remember
this birthday, do you think?

- Yeah.
- Fuck.

You mustn't remember
this birthday, Ava.

All right?
Forget this one, love.

You should pick him up
from the park, Dad.

Have a talk.

I'm worried about him.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

That is a very sensible idea.

Very grown up.

[T chatter, laughter]

[intriguing percussive music]

? ?

Luke!

What are you doing?

I'm just sitting here.

Uh-huh.

- Are you okay?
- Yeah.

Okay, well, peddle back.

I'll take you home
for your dinner.

Jesus Christ, man.

So you've not been hanging out
with your mates?

- I don't have any mates.
- You've got mates.

- Not really, Dad.
- No?

Not even a best mate?

Especially not a best mate.

Okay.

So anyway, you've just been
sitting and staring

every day after school?

[distant siren wailing]

It's the only part of the day

where I can just do nothing.

No one's telling me
what I need to do

or where I need to be.

Just me alone outside.

Does that make sense?

Yeah.

Yeah, yes.

We're similar like that.

It's important to be alone
sometimes.

? ?

[indistinct chatter]

The reason Christ went
into the wilderness

for 40 days and 40 nights

is just so he could get a bit
of fucking peace.

Photography, fishing,
bird watching.

All that, it's just excuses.

Alibis, isn't it?

? ?

Just gives you a reason
to be on your own

and have a big old stare.

It'd be good to be shepherd,
wouldn't it?

Ah, mate, it'd be fucking
brilliant to be a shepherd.

Lighthouse keeper
would be good too.

It's all automated now.

Thanks for my new phone,
Dad.

You're welcome.

I love you, mate.

I love you too.

What should I do
with the old one?

[upbeat music]

Ally: Everything right so far?

I'm still alive, Mum.

Ally: Good.
Keep it that way.

See you later.

- Ava: Love you, Mum.
- Love you.

? ?

[birds chirping]

Did you say
I could return this?
