[teacher] Okay, so today,

we're going to be talking about
your career paths.

It's a very important year for you

'cause you're gonna be taking
your options this year.

Alright, so has anybody thought about
what they might want to do in the future?

-Agnes?
-I wanna be a journalist.

Journalist, fantastic. Well done.

Anybody else? Got any ideas?

-Natasha?
-I wanna be a relationship therapist.

-A relationship therapist?
-[girls shout]

-[Natasha] Shut up!
-[girls laugh]

[teacher] Rocks, Sumaya, listen.

[indistinct chatter]

Kadijah, tell me, what do you want to do?

I wanna be a lawyer.

-A lawyer?
-Yeah.

And you know you need to have
very high levels to be a lawyer?

She does have high levels though.

-Well...
-Rocks--

-What you trying to say?
-Your levels aren't as high

as they might need to be
if you want to be a lawyer.

It's always a good idea
to have a backup plan.

-A plan B.
-You don't need no backup.

[indistinct chatter]

Rocks, what's P Diddy, 50 Cent?
What's that about?

I wanna be like P Diddy and 50 Cent.

Yeah, I wanna make a mil before I'm 30.

You've got to think about, specifically
what type of career?

-The entertainment industry.
-A business.

Business. Now you're getting there.

-What type of business?
-Make-up.

Make-up? Like Rihanna?

-[girls chatter]
-I got you guys.

And look how much followers she has
as well.

[teacher] Oh, wow.
Are these all your clients, Rocks?

[Kadijah] She gets paid
to do their make-up.

-[teacher] I'm impressed.
-[R&B music plays]

[Sumaya] Hey, £2 if you
want Rocks to do your brows.

Girl, you're gonna have to pay.

-Wait, wait, wait...
-50p?

Baby girl, you can't move.

[girls chatter]

Oh, she got Hubba Bubba still.

-[shouting]
-Hubba Bubba!

Put your pesky hands back, fam,
and pay the money if you want it!

Hey, Sasha, what's your body count?

[girls shout]

[chattering]

She was doing...

[laughter]

[teacher] Girls, come on now. Quickly.

You can do it, man, come on.

What is this?

You know it doesn't actually
take your virginity, right?

-It actually does.
-No, it doesn't 'cause it's not that long.

-It actually does.
-The thing's not that long.

Pull the white string.

Now take out that plastic white part.

There, you see?
That's gonna take your virginity, yeah?

-Trust me, yeah.
-Just put it in!

Okay, then move, move.

[children chatter]

[boy]
I think maybe there's eight dinosaurs.

Eight?

-Yeah.
-How many?

Sorry.

Can you count to ten?

No, I can count even more than that.

A hundred.

-One hundred?
-Yeah.

[Rocks] Count to 100 then.

One, two...

I'll do the rest tomorrow.

Tomorrow? Okay, cool.

Guess what? It's my birthday coming up.

[Rocks] Mummy will get you
something special.

And, um, I'm buying my own thing.

-You're buying your own thing?
-Yeah.

Well...

I cannot trust Mummy.

[muttering]

Emmanuel.

Yes?

And make sure you change
before Mum comes back.

[Emmanuel hums]

[cartoons play on TV]

[cartoons chatter on TV]

[Rocks] Eman, come, let's go.

[Emmanuel] But I don't wanna go.

Okay, but I'm not asking you,
I'm telling you.

Can you come with me, please?

Sorry, but no.

If anyone knocks on the door,
what do you do?

If anyone knocks on the door,
don't answer it.

[Rocks] Thank you.

I know you need to clear your head,
but call me.

[distant siren wails]

[Emmanuel] I wanted to sleep in your bed.

But you have your own bed.

Okay, if you're gonna sleep here,

Kadijah. Thank you, Sabina.

This is Roshe, she's come from Nottingham.

She's gonna be joining your form class.

I'd like you all to be supportive

If anybody wants to volunteer

[R&B music fades]

[indistinct chatter]

Ugh, don't get that,
don't get that, don't get that.

-Why?
-Don't get that.

-You're an old woman.
-How am I an old woman?

Only old people eat that.

What, so your mum's actually gone? Again?

It's not a big deal.

So who's gonna be with you guys? Your nan?

My mum's gonna come back.

I'm only taking care of Emmanuel
for a couple days.

Is your nan gonna come?

She's in Lagos.

[Emmanuel] ...every time.

But listen, you can hear Somalia
through it. Can you hear?

You have to put the pointed part...
Ha, I tricked you.

[giggling]

How's your mum doing?

Yeah, she's fine.

I'm good, how are you?

[Grandma speaking in Yoruba]

Emmanuel's fine.

[Grandma speaking in Yoruba]

Are you still ill, Grandma?

[Grandma speaking in Yoruba]

[Rocks chuckles]

Um, Grandma...

I was just wondering, um,
have you heard from Mum?

[Grandma speaking in Yoruba]

She's just busy.

[Grandma speaking in Yoruba]

But she can.

I don't understand
what you're trying to say.

[Grandma in English] Not every woman
is cut out for motherhood.

Well, I think Mum's doing a great job,
to be honest.

Alright, Grandma, I need to go.
The money on the card's nearly finished.

[Grandma] Okay, dear, well,
tell your mother to call me.

[Rocks] Yeah, I will, I will.

For all she knows,
I'm lying in the gutter.

-Alright. Bye, Grandma, bye.
-[Grandma speaking in Yoruba]

[Emmanuel]
But Mama, I want to do it tonight.

I'm sad. Go and brush it.

-And by the way, I'm dead.
-[mouths]

Now, go and brush it now!

I said now.

[muttering]

[children chattering]

[knocks]

[door opens]

Rocks, why is your house such a mess?

It's not.

What are you, a vampire?

Cut it. [chuckles]

-Cut it, it's too early.
-Cut it.

[chuckling]

Bruv, look how dark it is in here, Rocks!

So, why you not dressed?

-I've gotta look after Emmanuel.
-We can bring him, I'll look after him.

-He's not coming.
-Why not?

-Because he's not coming.
-Why not?

Because I'm not.

Mashallah.

Mashallah, lead the way. [chuckles]

You're such an idiot.
I went mosque with this.

Air Forces is a perfect touch.

Shut up, man. Go get changed.

-Cool, cool, cool, bruv.
-Get Emmanuel ready.

[sighs]

[Sumaya] What you doing? You're so weird.

-Come on, man.
-[Kadijah] Not gonna lie

-my back is burning, man.
-Hey, Emmanuel!

Look at him!

[indistinct chatter]

-It fizzes.
-Watch when it pops in your mouth.

Look at his reaction.

-Is it gonna hurt?
-No.

[laughter]

I don't like it! Ah!

[Kadijah] Swallow it so it finishes.

Finish it, swallow it.

Yeah, there, it's gone. Okay?

[indistinct chatter]

[Sumaya rolls her tongue]

Welcome to the future.

Rocks, can you do my eyebrows?

Or like, or just do my make-up?

Sorry, Agnes. I don't really have stuff
for your colour,

'cause I never get white clients.

[Kadijah] I was on the bus,
yeah, and some guy was

bare looking at me, like...

I was fixing my scarf
and some guy was looking at me

like he was gonna say something...

[chatter fades]

[laughter]

[toy instrument plays]

Sis, the TV's not working.

-Let me see.
-Come and see.

Try turning it on with the remote.

[Emmanuel] I did it, it's not working.

Damn.

Everything is not working in this home.

-Ugh...
-[Emmanuel chatters]

Yeah, the electricity's finished.

[Emmanuel] Aww...

Have you seen the brown envelope I had?

[Emmanuel] Er, no.

I can't even remember taking it out.

There's nothing under here.

Only breadcrumbs.

It's just... it's just me and you.

-Hyah! Hyah!
-[toy buzzes]

Turn on! Turn on, turn on!

How to get rich...

Maybe I could do a charity run?

A sponsored walk?

Oh, just shut up and look for the money.

-No.
-Just look for it.

[Emmanuel] No. Never.

[Rocks] Playing with your stupid toys.

Hmm.

Matchamai, Matchamai.

Matchamai.

[somber music playing]

[phone dials]

[voicemail] Hi, it's Funke.

I'm not here right now
so if you'd like to leave a message...

[indistinct chatter]

Okay, welcome back, everybody.
I hope you enjoyed...

-[indistinct chatter]
-Quieten down, please.

We'll just check that you're on the ball.

We'll do the easy one
where I write the equation out for you.

Does anybody want to impress me?

-We'll skip all...
-[phone buzzes]

Okay, somebody's phone. So, I can hear it.

Hello, who's this?

-[woman] Hello?
-Is that you, Shola?

-Hello?
-[teacher] Hello?

-[Agnes] No, she isn't, sir.
-Who's this?

-Agnes, I'm not talking to you.
-Wait, I can't hear you.

Shola, could you get off
your phone please?

-[woman] Is that Mrs. Omotoso?
-Is this about my mum?

Excuse me. Excuse me,
could you get off your phone please?

Look, sorry, I can't hear you.
Can you speak louder please?

You are stopping the whole
learning process.

-This is a top set maths class.
-I'd like to ask you some questions.

-You're disturbing the lesson.
-What questions?

If you don't give me your phone
I'm gonna have to put you in isolation.

Your phone number's been chosen
to be included in a study.

I asked her three times.
I'm gonna have to send you out.

-I thought--
-I turned it off, man.

-It's off.
-I don't care. You're going.

Miss Judge? Yeah, could you come
and get Shola, please?

It's not that deep, sir.

It's nothing to do with you, Agnes.

If you wanna join her in isolation

-I suggest...
-Where's the C1, C2, C3, C4?

[overlapping chatter]

You want me to take
that prefect badge off you?

-No, I haven't done anything--
-You're prefect.

You're just on your period, sir.
That's why you're angry.

D'you know what, that's offensive

-whether you're talking to anybody.
-How is that offensive?

The fact that you're talking
to a male teacher...

[snickers]

-Let me see yours.
-It's not that bad.

[indistinct chatter]

Remember the girl from Nottingham?

The new girl? She speaks bare weird.

-You know she says "bum" for nice.
-She says "bruh."

-[Yawa] She says bum?
-Like bum, for nice.

[Yawa] I heard she got kicked out
of her last school.

So, why didn't you reply
to my text on Sunday?

I had a mad headache.

What's happening with the wedding?

Nothing much.
Just bare people in the house.

[Rocks] See? Sumaya said it's perfect.

That's why she's the malawah.

-Queen.
-Fam, didn't even knock!

-No respect.
-Roshe, you're late.

-My bad.
-[girl] Add some milk.

Right. Come on, put this on,
and join a group.

Come on.

You have to sieve it.

-Hi.
-Hi.

Let me, let me...

So, can you make malawah?

I don't know what that is.

Wrong answer.

[indistinct chatter]

-[girls laugh]
-[Mia] She's so stupid...

[Rocks] Hey, Roshe.

Is your name Rosh, Roshi?

-Um, yeah, Roshe.
-Roshe, Roshe.

Yeah, in that cupboard there,
there should be chocolate.

Just help me make chocolate sauce.

-You need help.
-Why would I need her help?

-[Kadijah] She's annoying.
-[Yawa] Why is she even here?

-D'you know what I mean?
-[Roshe] Whoops.

[all] Oh!

-Miss, she done that on purpose!
-Who you think you talking to?

Stop! What are you doing? Sit down!

Stop! Roshe.

Whoa, whoa!

[teacher] What's going on?

[clamouring]

Girls!

Sit down! Shola, put it down.

Roshe, over here. Roshe. Shola!

-Waste girl!
-Shola! Sit down.

-Come on.
-Miss, she did that on purpose!

-Stupid bitch!
-[teacher] What is going on?

[clamouring]

[girls scream]

[teacher] Oh, my God.

-[laughter]
-[teacher] For goodness sake.

[yelling]

[girls scream]

[teacher] Roshe!

[man] Keep your voices down, please
and clean yourself up

then I want you all outside my office.

[indistinct chatter]

Um, can I borrow your lip-gloss?

-Yeah, go on.
-Thanks.

Who done your nails?

Oh, um, my...

Mm, my step-mum owns a salon.

-So like, yeah.
-Where is it?

-Dalston.
-Dalston?

-Mm-hmm. Um...
-That's quite close.

-You do make-up, don't you?
-Mm-hmm.

-How did you know?
-Um, I seen it on Insta.

[girls chatter]

Bruv, what you doing?

So why do you have a frog?

'Cause I'm looking after it.

Does everyone get to take the frog?

Of course everyone does

'cause otherwise
it wouldn't be a class pet.

It'd be more like a pet.

-Just a pet.
-What's the frog's name?

Tiny. 'Cause he's a tiny little frog.

That's why the class named him Tiny.

Are those people outside our door?

Yeah.

Someone was looking for you.

-Come on, let's go upstairs.
-Wait, come.

Wait, what? We're supposed to go upstairs.

Just come, come with me.
Come, come, come with me.

-Come on!
-[Emmanuel mutters]

-Just wait here.

I'm gonna get my phone for you
so you can play.

[distant voices]

[indistinct chatter]

...if something does happen
then there'll be a problem.

You did the right thing by calling us.

Yeah, definitely, if you're worried.

[woman] I know the mum.
She gets very down sometimes.

I mean, don't get me wrong
she's a lovely mum when she's on form

but I haven't seen her for a little while

and I am getting a bit worried
for the kids.

[man] If Mum doesn't come then maybe
we're gonna have to follow up.

[Emmanuel] Ribbit.

Ribbit.

Ribbit.

Ribbit.

[man]
...wait till they get back from school.

[woman]
You've been here before, haven't you?

[man] Yeah, I've, er...

Come on, Emmanuel, let's go.

Why?

'Cause we got--
I got a surprise for you, come.

What is it? Is Mummy here?

I have a surprise for you, come.

Is Mummy here?

No, we're going to have a sleepover.

I-- Okay, but I want my pillow.

-I'll get it for you after.
-I want my pillow now and I want Mummy.

I will get it for you after
when we have food.

-Can you come with me, please?
-But I want Mummy. Why are we running?

What's wrong?

-[indistinct chatter]
-[dog barks]

-Hello.
-Er, you alright?

-You alright, Emmanuel?
-Yeah, I'm good. You alright, Zain?

-Yeah, yeah.

Hey, Rocks, you alright?

-Yeah, you alright, Sumaya?
-What's going on?

Could me and Emmanuel stay here
just for the night?

-Why, what's up?
-I'll tell you inside.

Emmanuel, I'll tell you inside.

-Hello, Auntie.
-Hi, Shola.

[speaks in Somali]

[mutters] Just come in, come in.

[Sumaya's mum] Hello.

[Rocks] Your house looks sick like this,

-[Sumaya] Come, get dessert.
-[Rocks] Dessert, oh.

Emmanuel, d'you want cake, yeah?

-It's just a frog, it's just a frog.
-[Rocks] Put the frog under the table.

Are you gonna try our things?

She doesn't want it.
Alie, stop forcing the kid

-d'you know what I mean?
-I bet she'll have the cake.

-She loves a bit of cake.
-I just want cake, innit.

[woman] Sumaya, go get him it, please.

No, you get it. I'm not getting it.

-Why?
-I don't get stuff for people.

That's long.

Rocks, yeah, the only reason
why she's moving like this

is because I'm going uni
and our brother's gonna get married.

-She's gonna be left all alone.
-As if I care about you guys.

[woman] She says,
when she was crying in my bed.

Anyway! Anyway, who's gonna be doing
all the stuff in the house...

[indistinct chatter]

[woman] I don't know who your bridesmaids
are gonna be to be honest.

There's nothing to hate on.

[man] What do you mean there's nothing
to hate on? Are you sure?

[indistinct chatter continues]

[woman] Sumaya, chop-chop, man!

[Rocks laughs]

[speaking in Somali]

[speaking in Somali]

[in English] Okay, goodnight.

-Goodnight, Auntie.
-I'm very tired.

What did your mum say?

She said it's cool, don't worry.
You can stay.

-Yeah.
-See yous in the morning. Bye.

-See ya.
-[Rocks] See ya tomorrow.

You're lucky your sister backs you,
you know.

Yeah, I know.

But she's leaving to Leicester soon.
Gonna miss her.

It's not really a big deal.
Just Leicester.

It kinda is because I've been living
with her for like most of my life.

-So, it's a bit...
-It's like two trains to Leicester.

And so's my brother.
He's leaving as well. It's bare.

He's only going Tottenham.

Listen, Rocks. Um...

I think you should tell someone
about your mum.

I don't think so.

It's just you and Emmanuel in the house,
it's not safe.

I've been doing just fine.

[exhales] Bruv.

I don't need you.

[stammers]
Not like that, like I just don't...

I don't need you to worry for me.

I don't need it.

-I'm just here for toni--
-Go then.

-I said I'm here for tonight.
-Then why you here?

-Go. Leave Emmanuel then, go.
-Are you listening?

Bruv, I think that durag
is doing something to your ears.

Are you even listening to what I'm saying?

I said I'm here for tonight and when--

-Then go, you don't need me.
-Tomorrow morning,

-I'll be--
-Okay, leave Emmanuel and go.

'Cause you've been doing this
for the whole time, Rocks.

I'm always here for you,
you always have barriers up

like, what's the problem?
Talk to me. I don't get it.

Like, you wouldn't understand.

Which is why I'm trying to understand
and help you.

Bruv, you, you have everything.

You have your mum, your dad,
your nice house. Like...

That's got nothing to do
with the situation.

It has everything to do with it.
You don't understand--

-I'm trying to help you.
-Let me speak!

Is it not my situation? Can I speak?

-Let me guess, I live a perfect life!
-You live a perfect life.

You have a mum, your dad,
brothers and sisters.

-You don't know what hurt is.
-I tried bringing you into my life.

Shut up and let me speak!

You live a perfect life but you're here

"Oh, Leicester. Tottenham."
Who gives a fuck?

Don't swear in my house.

We'll see when you have no one left.
We'll see.

Bruv, I have no-one. So you think you...

leaving me is gonna affect me
in any kind of way? It doesn't.

So don't feel
like you have any gain to my life.

Don't feel like you...
don't feel like you do nothin'.

'Cause you do nothing.

I've lost everyone. I have no mum.

-I have no dad...
-Listen!

...so you leaving me
doesn't mean anything.

-So, shut up!
-Then why are you in my house?

Wow.

So cool.

Have a good day at school, Emmanuel.

[Rocks] Shit.

Emmanuel, come on, let's go.

You know that we've been looking
at Pablo Picasso.

We know that we've been looking at Cubism.

I want you to think about
how he recreates the portraits

and replaces the facial features
in his portraits.

While you're working today,
I want you to talk to each other

about what is it that people do
to make judgements about you.

What is it people see
when they look at you?

Oh, wow. Why have you done it
in a box like that?

[Agnes] I feel like you guys
have an identity, right.

Like, if we talk about like
culture and stuff, because...

I feel like being English is just boring.

'Cause we're living in this country
and we know about that

if you went to Bangladesh
they would think, "Wow!

She's English." Like...

Like, "What type of tea
does she drink and stuff like..."

You know what I mean?

[Yawa] Sabina, didn't you find out
about your grandparents?

Yeah, yeah. In, um, Auschwitz.

Wait, so your great grand--
your grandparents

-were in Auschwitz?
-Yeah, yeah.

My great grandad survived the war.

-We went to see...
-No way!

They had their own little,
like, block for like, gypsies.

-How were they in Auschwitz then?
-[chattering]

We don't have to be Jewish
to not be classified

as bad to Hitler, Agnes.

He wasn't what Hitler thought
was perfect.

-Yeah.
-That guy needs to fix up.

Well, that's why he's dead.

I don't think I wanna do singing no more.

Like, I found my...
I found my real passion.

-[Agnes] Which is?
-[girl 1] What is it?

Guys, are you seeing this work of art?

-[Agnes] You're taking the piss!
-I'm gonna be the new Picasso, like.

Are you... are y'all seeing this?

Okay, so I'm walking up
to the school gates

just minding my own business.

-And then guess who I see.
-[Yawa] Who? Who?

[Agnes] Ferrero Roshe.

-New girl walks away with Rocks.
-[Sabina] Was she in uniform?

-I mean, were they both in uniform?
-[Kadijah] Ferrero Roshe.

-No, I don't think so.
-Why's she bunking with her?

Sumaya, do you know?

[Kadijah] This girl making
too much trouble, guys.

[engine revving]

[faint pop music plays]

[Roshe] Hi!

-[woman] No school?
-[Roshe] Erm, no, it's an inset day.

What's that?

[Roshe]
It's, um, a teacher training day.

Okay.
And who's this handsome chap?

His name's Emmanuel.

-[Rocks] My little brother.
-Ah.

[speaking in Polish]

[in English] Hey.

Go to the chair.

Come sit down.

How are you?
-[Roshe] Anna?

[Emmanuel]
Oh, there's water.

-[Anna] Yeah?
-This is Rocks, um...

Hello.

-[Roshe] She does make-up.
-What kind of make-up do you do?

Anything, like, a wedding,
prom, birthdays.

That's good.

Maybe she can teach you something.

Yeah, could I do it in the shop?

Well...

I don't know. Sometimes
customers ask--

I could start today, like right now.

Oh.

-You are keen.
-[laughter]

[Anna]
Leave your phone number.

I'll give you a ring
if we need anybody.

-Oh.
-[Anna] Okay?

You need to press that button again.

[Roshe] I've got a motive,
if you wanna go.

-What motive?
-You gotta leave Emmanuel here.

-Would your mum allow it?
-Yeah, watch this.

Anna...

Me and Rocks want to go to the library

but leave Emmanuel here?

[speaks Polish]

-[assistant] It's fine with me.
-[Anna] Well, you lucky.

Okay, don't be long.

-I left my number here.
-[Anna] Alright then.

Are you okay?

-Yeah.
-[Rocks] What is this rubbish?

-Nail polish.
-Wow.

Yo, yo, do I hear that?
Do... Do I hear...

No kids, yeah, is that it?

No children.

-Aw!

[Roshe singing]
♪ Come to the ends, yeah ♪

[Roshe]
Why you called Rocks, then?

[Rocks] When me and Sumaya were younger,

girls were picking on her,
so then I backed Sumaya.

They started calling me Rocks
'cause I was moving ruckus.

-[Roshe laughs]
-[Rocks] So where we going?

[Roshe] Er, we're gonna go meet
my cousin Mo and his friend.

-Who's his friend?
-Um, his name's Mohammed.

-Is Mohammed your boyfriend?
-What? Ew, no.

[laughter]

-So do you chill with Mo a lot?
-[Roshe] Yeah, I do.

He acts like he's from East
but he's from Wolverhampton.

Where's Wolverhampton?

He is a bit, d'you know
what I mean, like...

-You know when they've got that...
-[laughter]

[Roshe] So, how come you needed
a job in the salon?

Just to make some extra money,
you know.

[Roshe] Make shmoney.

[laughter]

Yeah, just to make some
extra money, innit, so...

[Roshe] D'you want me to tell you
a little secret?

D'you know how I sometimes
work in the salon?

When the customers are paying,
I take pictures of their credit cards,

their debit cards, the receipts

and I just hand it
over to Mo and Mohammed.

So you basically do fraud?

You wanna see the money I made
off the last one?

This is a receipt worth £2.

[Rocks] That's your business,
don't tell me. I didn't hear.

I don't wanna know.

-Is that them now?

They take their time, bro.

you stole money?

You better watch your mouth!

-Who's an animal?
-You're--

-I'll show you what animal is.
-You know what I mean.

-Get out. Get out. Get out.
-Tell me what you mean.

-Tell me what you mean!
-This is exactly what I mean.

-What?
-Only thing you people know!

[Rocks]
You look half-Black yourself, bruv!

-I know my place in society! Get out.
-You're both Indian!

Get out. I'm not Indian!

-Where you from?
-He's Indian.

You don't even know where I come from.

-You're both Black!
-[yelling]

He is seeing you as an example.
He's gonna grow.

He's gonna be just like you.

Shut the hell up. My brother's
gonna be a king, you dickhead!

-Back off.
-Get out.

Your children, your children
will work for my brother!

-So shut the hell up.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Rocks] Your grandchildren
will polish my brother's shoes!

-Oh, my God.
-You're a thief.

-Okay.
-I'm gonna call the police.

-Right now.
-113, City Vale Hotel.

-You're a thief!
-Hands out?

-Why are your hands out?
-You're an animal.

[man]
Um, I, um...

I called the police.
There's a woman here, she's disturbing.

-Look at this mess you made.
-All my stuff is broken.

Forget this, bruv.

Oh, my... [sighs]

[sighs]

Let's go.

[siren wailing]

[Emmanuel]
Where are we going?

[Rocks]
I'm trying to figure something out.

[Emmanuel] Can't we go to one
of your friend's houses?

-[distant siren wails]
-[indistinct street chatter]

"Don't trust this girl,
she stole from me..."

What?

[sighs] Oh, fuck.

[Emmanuel]
Are Agnes' parents asleep yet?

[Rocks] Yes, they are,
so when you get there

you have to be quiet, okay?

I thought Agnes
wasn't your real friend?

[Rocks] What you talking about?
I've known her since primary school.

Don't say
that when we get there.

[Emmanuel] Don't bug Agnes
and mind that slug.

[Rocks] Shh, we have to be quiet.

Mind that slug!

-You alright?
-Yeah, I'm good.

Be quiet though,
cause my mum's right down there.

Come on then.

[sighs]

D'you wanna talk?

Dunno what to say.

We already know what happened.

How d'you know?

[Agnes] Um, from... from Roshe.

But looks like she's not even
gonna come back

to our school
so just, just forget her.

You just...

can't keep, like,
going on by yourself.

I didn't even...
I didn't even do anything.

I'm not like them other kids
that swear to their mum.

I didn't do nothing to her.

You know...

there's gotta be a way to, like...
sort all this.

Sort all this out.

[sniffles]

What am I gonna do
about Emmanuel?

[grunts]

[Rocks] I remember staying here time ago.

D'you think she's ever gonna come back?

I don't know.

-[distant voices]
-[birds chirping]

[footsteps approach]

[woman]
Come on, you come with me.

[Rocks]
Yo, what are you doing? Hello?

Excuse me.

-Hi, I'm from Social Services--
-[Rocks] Excuse me, Sir.

-Where's Emmanuel?
-Sorry, is it Rocks?

-He's gonna be safe.
-Can you stop walking?

-Rocks--
-Why are you still walking?

-Emmanuel.
-Whoa, whoa. Wait.

What are you doing?
I didn't ask for this, Agnes.

Emmanuel?

-[woman] Listen...
-No!

[woman]
Hang on a minute, Rocks.

[Agnes] Leave her alone!

[Rocks] Can you get him
out the car please?

[woman] It's alright.
If you don't come with us

I'm gonna have to let
Emmanuel go by himself.

[Rocks] We're not going with you.
Let him out the car!

-No, we're not gonna go with you.
-We'll put him somewhere safe.

What are you doing? No!

You gonna believe him over your sister?

Rocks, come with us, we can see
if we can keep you together.

If you behave like this, we can't.
Come on.

[Rocks]
Emmanuel, open the door!

I was just asking for advice
cause I wanted to help you guys.

[Rocks] Emmanuel, open the door.

Emmanuel, open... [sobs]

Why are you doing this to me?
Emmanuel, open the door!

[crying]

Rocks, listen,
you need to stop now. Okay?

[sobs] I'm sorry!

[woman]
Come in the car with us.

Listen, come in the car with us
or we gotta go without you.

[sobs]

Stop, it's time to get in the car.

Okay.

-[Agnes' mum] This is her bag.
-Can I have his bag, please?

Give me that, give me the pink one.

Agnes...
Look, you see, here's your things.

-[Agnes] Rocks, I'm sorry.
-Give me my shoes.

[Agnes]
Rocks, please, I'm really sorry.

Can you put the window up?

[Agnes]
I just wanted to help you guys.

Rocks, please. Rocks!

Put the window up, please.

[engine starts]

Rocks.

Mummy, Mummy!

No! Please!

[sobs]

I want Mummy.

-Mummy!
-You're alright.

Mummy! [bawling]

Mummy! Mummy! [sobs]

[Emmanuel] You're gonna fall!
We're gonna fall! Pew! Mayday!

Mayday, mayday!
Guardians of the Galaxy!

Save yourselves! No!

Here she is.

[Rocks] Emmanuel.

Let go.

Come.

-[Emmanuel] Let go.
-[Rocks] Are you okay?

-Yeah.
-Yeah?

Um, you're gonna have
to go with these two people.

-Okay?
-Why? Aren't you coming?

No, I'm not coming.

Me, you and Mummy...

are gonna be together soon.

But you can't tell anyone.
Pinky promise.

Nobody.

-I won't.
-You have something there.

-Where?
-There. There!

[social worker]
Hey! Emmanuel...

[woman] Look, I'm sorry that
we haven't got any local foster carers

that can look after both of you.

But there's a nice foster family
in Hastings

that are gonna take
really good care of him

and you'll be staying
with a local foster carer.

Come on.

-[Rocks] My mum's coming back.
-[social worker] Yeah, maybe. Maybe.

But we'll go with this for now.

[social worker knocks on door]

[knocking]

I'll arrange a visit but in the meantime

if she wants, she can write a letter

for me to pass on to him.

I've managed to give Rocks a few bits

but I think you might need
to all pop down to the shop

and get some more things.

[foster mother] Where is her mother?

[social worker] We don't know.

We suspect she's had difficulty

managing her medication
and mental health.

Rocks has been looking after herself,
looking after Emmanuel.

Yeah?

Are you hungry?

No, I'm fine.

You like curry goat?

I don't really eat Jamaican food.

Really? You do spicy food?

Um, a little bit.

I cook good.
You don't have to worry about that.

Thank you.

If you fancy anything

let me know and I'll heat
some up for you, alright?

Thank you.

That's my pleasure.

I'll... I'll leave you to settle.

-Yeah.
-If you want anything, I'm...

just in the other room, alright?

Okay.

Okay.

[indistinct chatter]

-Of course you didn't know.
-When do you know? When?

When?

No, I swear it was...
It's next week, man.

[sighs]

That bit!

And he got so excited
because he thought...

[indistinct chatter]

[Kadijah] Hubble bubble,
toil and trouble...

Cauldron bubble...

[Yawa]
Oh, so you're the witches now?

[chatter stops]

Hey, Rocks. Come sit here.

She only sit...

Sit down, man. Don't be shy.

Want some cake?

Yeah.

Ay, Rocks, man, where you been?

-Chilling.
-Ghosting.

-She's been ghosting.
-Ghosting on us like Casper!

-They're so lame.
-Casper the ghost!

[Sumaya] So, where's Emmanuel?

He's in Hastings.

[Yawa]
Hastings? Where's Hastings?

1066, Battle of Hastings?

You're so wet, Kadijah.

[Kadijah]
Fam, that's the only Hastings I know.

D'you know any other Hasting?

-"Hasting"?
-"Hasting"?

-"Hasting"!
-[laughter]

Basically, it's his birthday tomorrow
and I'm not trying to miss it, so...

I'm trying to go to Hastings.

-Well, we're coming with you then.
-[Kadijah] Yeah.

You guys don't need to come
with me, it's cool.

What you mean
we don't have to come with you?

-We're gonna come.
-I'm going tomorrow.

[Kadijah] Yah... Guys, it's £29 off-peak
for one person.

-Twenty-nine?
-Rah, like, in total?

-Per person!
-Are you mad?

Nah, for real. That's bare P.

Bruv, I have zero P to my name.

Let's add our money together
and buy one ticket.

[Rocks]
I don't wanna take you guys' money.

[Yawa] No, but it's calm.
We're doing this together.

What d'you want, Agnes?

I know what she wants,
she wants to go tell them

people more stuff about you.

[laughter]

I just came to help.

[Sumaya]
Okay, d'you have money?

I have 20.

[Yawa]
Man, let me check that, man.

-[Rocks] Check what?
-If this is real.

Once a snake, always a snake.

Yeah, I see the Queen.
The Queen's shining.

-[giggles]
-It's her debt.

I've got £5.
It was for the shop, but here.

-[Rocks] Thanks, man.
-I have like £1.50.

I was gonna get like,
chicken and chips but...

-Kadijah, you got me, right?
-Yeah, it's calm.

[Rocks] Are you sure?

Yeah, they were going for shin pads,
anyway, I don't care.

-[Rocks] Oh, thank you.
-Thirty-five, 36...

Oi, man, we're gonna need
money for food as well.

Yeah, we have £40.

[Sumaya] We got this, man.

-Eh...
-So we're all cool, right?

Are we?

Yeah.

[indistinct chatter]

[Sumaya] Yeah, yeah,
look, look, look, it's there!

-And they said your name.
-It said that, man!

Guys, does it say what platform?

Yeah, it says it.

It said the platform
but I didn't catch it.

Erm...

Oh, on the other side?

-Yeah, yeah, yeah.
-Come on then.

-Okay, let's go check.
-Go that way.

Guys, guys, guys, let's get cookies.

No, no. I knew you were gonna say that.

-Yawa!
-Man, let's get cookies!

Look, it says "I love you," please!

-Yawa, we're on a budget!
-We have £10!

Uh-huh, with the £1.50 you donated!

Yes, we know, Kadijah.

So many people around,
what if they see us, like, going in?

Don't be thinking about
stuff like that, man!

Okay, you lot are panicking.
Just wait.

-Guys, wait up.
-Me and Sumaya will go through first.

Then we'll give you guys the ticket

-and then you guys go one by one.
-And then you go in pairs.

-Okay, Okay, Okay.

And stop panicking.

-You're sweating as well.
-No, I'm not.

[crosstalk]

[Rocks] Go for it, go for it.
Do it in twos.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Go, go, go, go.
