00:00So, I've written a few lines and I thought I could

00:29add them to the eulogy. The eulogy's done. I can't be tinkering around with it now.

00:35Charles? No, I'm sorry, but I've agonised over every word. This is my one chance to

00:39celebrate Ethan's life. My one chance to tell him how much he means to me. If I were to

00:46do it, son, it needs to be pure. It's okay. I understand.

01:05Charles is just on a call, but he won't be long. Oh, sorry. Can I get you a drink? I'm

01:11good, thanks. People have been so kind. Cards and flowers. There's folks coming round to

01:19check on him. Does your heart good? Oh, Ruby, that reminds me. We've still got your casserole

01:25dish. Keep it. It's fine. I'm sorry, Charles. I know this is the worst time, but... Has something

01:35happened? Who was on the phone? The coroner's office. Have they established the cause of

01:43death? They said it was an aneurysm. That it could have happened any time. No. I picked

02:02it up. Aneurysms can be hereditary. It's rare, but... This is family stuff. I should

02:11leave you in peace. I'm so sorry. I've been saving this. It's not quite the occasion I

02:32had in mind, but it's a must. Right now I'd drink terps if it would steady me. Oh, sweetheart.

02:42I'm glad you're here. I was going to call you. What for? Oh, to invite me for cocktails.

02:49What? And I was stupid enough to think that you had a conscience. Hey, your mum's just

02:54found out. Ethan's death had nothing to do with her. Yeah, right. It's true. It was some

02:58kind of aneurysm. Are you serious? Yeah, I swear. It's the coroner's words, not mine.

03:05Well, that was lucky. It's terrifying. I was literally one second away from telling Charles

03:13everything. I'd have gone to prison, Nicky, for up to ten years, but I'd have done that

03:20for you. Look at me. I'm shaking. Is it any wonder I'd need a drink? So this is a celebration?

03:24No, it's hardly a celebration. Yeah, actually. Why not? If that's what you want to call it.

03:28Well, why stop there? I'll tell you what. I'll let you know when he's been buried and

03:31then you can crack open the champagne. Oh, drop the attitude, will you? You seriously

03:34need to get off your high horse. If I want to toast your mum's freedom... Toast my mum's

03:37freedom? Do you know how warped that is? He didn't mean it. What, like you didn't mean

03:42to plough your car into Ethan? If I had a penny for every time you... Just what is your

03:47problem? You two. Like it's always been. You're so sick and twisted and you can't even see

03:53it. OK, hands up. All right. I admit we have made some mistakes. Mistakes. But we will

03:58do better. No, you won't. You'll do exactly what you've always done. I so wanted to trust

04:05you. For once, I believed you'd do the right thing. Nicky, I was going to, but now there's

04:10no need. And there he is. He always gets in your ear. But do you know what? I am done.

04:14You say what you want because I'm the Antichrist, me. This was nothing to do with your dad.

04:18This is always to do with him. You're just so thick, you can't even see it. Hey, that

04:23is your mum. You show some respect. She's weak. Weak and pathetic. Just like I was when

04:30you were pimping me out. Hey, you better wash your mouth. Kent, don't. Oh, what? Are you

04:34going to beat me up? No. You're acting like a brat. Oh, I need putting in my place, do

04:37I? Well, that'll be a first. What do you mean? Don't you push me. Caleb, no. I have to slap

04:42you down. What have you done? Yeah, that's right. Run to him, why don't you? I am so

04:49done with you. And that goes for you and all. How do you say goodbye to your son? That's

05:13what I've been asking myself. And the truth is, I can't. I can't do it. Maybe one of us

05:31can. But in these, the darkest of times, I turn to the words of Job, chapter 14. If

05:48someone dies, will they live again? All the days of my hard service, I will wait for my

05:56renewal to come. And so I will wait. I will not say goodbye. Because this, this is not

06:05the end. Until then, Ethan will live in me with every breath I take and every word I

06:14say. I will not let my son become a memory. I love you, son. A man that is born of a woman

06:36have but a short time to live. It is full of misery. You missed the entire service. I know,

06:43I'm so sorry. What happened? You never even answered my messages. I'll explain later. Guys,

06:47can we just... As if we're a shadow that never continueth in one stay. Oh, holy and merciful

06:55saviour. Thou most worthy judge eternal. Suffer us not at our last hour. For any pains of death

07:08to fall from thee. For as much as it has pleased almighty God to take out the world,

07:19the soul of Ethan Henderson, we therefore commit...

07:36We therefore commit his body to the ground. Earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

08:06You don't do table service. You have to go into order. I'm waiting for someone else. Okay.

08:22How's things with you and Will? Yeah, all in hand.

08:28Caught him looking at me the way he used to. He needs to do more than look.

08:36Hey, love. What are you doing? I booked you. I'm Mrs. Smith.

08:52I want to spend some time with you, make the most of every second. I know how lucky I am

08:55to still have you. Have you heard yourself? I thought we could go to Hotton, get some lunch,

09:00just the two of us. We used to do that all the time. I'm not driving you. I'm already big tipper.

09:07I could play this game all day. If you want to go to Hotton, you can drive yourself.

09:16Please, Nicky.

09:24He's wound up tight. They all are these days. Dead serious, like the world's about to end.

09:31Which maybe it is. Can you not talk to me? There's no one about. So go on, then.

09:37What have you done? Be like that, then.

09:51Hey. Seeing as you're not working tonight, what do you want to do?

09:55You want to drink a whole bottle of tequila? You got any better ideas?

10:02Hey, I'm sorry that I was late for the funeral.

10:06Hey, I wasn't expecting you to be there. After what Ethan did to you, I'm surprised you're

10:12talking to me. I don't blame you or Ethan anymore. It doesn't feel right to be angry.

10:19I wish I felt the same. But anger's all I've got. It was an aneurysm. That's what killed him.

10:31Oh, right. I've got some photos of him from my birthday. I could send them to you,

10:39if you'd like. I'd like that. Thanks.

10:44No worries.

10:51Life's precious, sir. Make the most of every moment.

11:02Now, I'm going to have to be very careful about which photos to send.

11:05We did a lot of shots that night. Your mum can party.

11:09Oh, don't. You know, I never thought I'd agree with a vicar,

11:14but he's right. We should be living our best lives.

11:17What have you got in mind?

11:19I haven't thought it through yet.

11:21What about Vegas? We talked about that before and there's nothing to stop us.

11:26A week in Vegas does sound fun.

11:28No, I'm thinking longer than that. Why are we stuck here when we could be travelling the world?

11:34Oh, because I like it here. And besides, I've got Jay.

11:38I mean, yes, he is incredibly annoying, but he is my brother.

11:42So wherever Jay goes, you go.

11:44Right, OK. What's going on with you?

11:46It's just, I'm finally starting to see things clearly.

11:54There's nothing keeping us here.

12:04I'm going to have to be very careful about which photos to send.

12:06I'm going to have to be very careful about which photos to send.

12:08I'm going to have to be very careful about which photos to send.

12:10I'm going to have to be very careful about which photos to send.

12:12I'm going to have to be very careful about which photos to send.

12:14I'm going to have to be very careful about which photos to send.

12:16I'm going to have to be very careful about which photos to send.

12:18I'm going to have to be very careful about which photos to send.

12:20I'm going to have to be very careful about which photos to send.

12:22I'm going to have to be very careful about which photos to send.

12:24I'm going to have to be very careful about which photos to send.

12:26I'm going to have to be very careful about which photos to send.

12:28I'm going to have to be very careful about which photos to send.
