00:01The power work!
00:02What are you doing?
00:03Stop it!
00:05I know!
00:06Just seeing you viciously attack Roe with my own two eyes.
00:10What's this happening to us? When is this crap going to end?
00:13I was wrong.
00:16Are you still planning to run away tomorrow?
00:18Yes.
00:19I'm coming with you.
00:30I'm coming with you.
00:48I, erm, I forgot to say I'm off so I'm working over the weekend, er, be a pal and come help
01:14me with it.
01:15Hey.
01:16I did the terrible day we had yesterday and I thought his favourite brekkie would cheer him
01:32up.
01:33Well I hope so, cos I don't know if he can cope with much more.
01:36And to be honest I don't know if I can.
01:38He's gonna be okay isn't he?
01:40Hey.
01:41Is he with me by his side?
01:42Of course he is.
01:43Come on.

02:06Hey, kids.
02:10Hey, your dad made us a special breakie.
02:12Yep. Pancakes with banana and chocolate sauce.
02:15Oh, nice one.
02:16How are you, mate?
02:18I'm good.
02:19Come on. What have I told you about filtering your feelings?
02:22Dad's right.
02:23What Olu did yesterday was horrendous.
02:24You can't just pretend it didn't happen.
02:26I'm not.
02:27Well, just to be on the safe side,
02:29your mum and I, we've arranged for you to speak with a counsellor.
02:32No, I don't need to speak to a counsellor.
02:33You need a little bit of support.
02:35I've got some.
02:36Listen, I've been going to the thing for a while now.
02:38In fact, I'm going there now.
02:42And what about your breakfast?
02:44I had some cereal. I just had the pancakes for lunch.
02:47Right. I'll put it in the fridge then.
02:49So, er, why did you come in?
03:09It's nothing.
03:10I was just in hospital and got my feelings, that's all.
03:13In hospital, what happened?
03:16Look, if you come cos you feel guilty, you can save it, you know?
03:18Er, why would I feel guilty?
03:21Cos you can't just dose them and they come round whenever you feel like it.
03:26Lucas, what happened?
03:27Nothing.
03:28Well, it's clearly something.
03:30It's a...
03:31Just tell me, please.
03:35I've got brain tumour.
03:36Nina?
03:45Ro?
03:47Oh, come here.
03:47I feel like we know each other inside out already.
03:51It's hard to see in the flash.
03:53Sorry, that sounds weird.
03:55I just mean, I can't believe this is really happening.
03:57Things have been bad for so long.
03:59Ro, can we just...
04:00Anyways, I've been looking up post-times to Chester cos we can get a train from there.
04:03And then while we're in London, there's a few pastels that are pretty cheap.
04:05We can stay there for a few nights and, you know, get our plans together.
04:11Where are your bags?
04:13What I've been trying to say is...
04:15I can't come with you.
04:21Let's have a little bit more vanilla.
04:26Tony.
04:26Um, I'm sorry to bother you, but Arlo has got something he'd like to say.
04:32Well, now's not a good time. I'm prepping for lunch.
04:34Can you just hear him out, OK?
04:36He's retracted his statement to the police.
04:39We've just come from the station.
04:41Tony, I'm really sorry.
04:43I know I shouldn't have lied about what you did.
04:47Well, thank you for finally admitting it.
04:49I will forever regret hitting you.
04:52But your actions have seriously affected my life.
04:55I'm sorry.
04:57Well, I'm not the only one that needs to hear it, though, am I?
05:00I mean, you bullied my son for months.
05:02He made his life a misery.
05:05Sorry, Marie.
05:06I'm not the only one he needs to apologise to.
05:11It was your idea.
05:12I know.
05:13I'm sorry.
05:14I need to get away from here.
05:15Look, it doesn't have to be today.
05:17Yes, it does.
05:18Everyone's going to be better off than I'll mean their lives.
05:20I spoke with Matt last night and they reminded me that I didn't need to run away from my problems.
05:25That if I do, then I'm just going to run into more.
05:28Yeah, you told me about this group before.
05:29You know, my dad made me go to one of those last year.
05:31All they do is talk about how great it is to be trans.
05:35They don't talk about bullying.
05:37They don't talk about fearing for your life.
05:40It's just full of kids who haven't experienced the real world.
05:42This group isn't like that.
05:43Matt's cool.
05:44They're trans themselves too and they really understand young trans people.
05:48Like, nothing is going to change overnight.
05:51I'm your friend, bro.
05:52I'm not going anywhere.
05:53We were supposed to run away together.
05:55I can't do it on my own.
05:57And now I'm trapped here.
05:59You know, I saw Dad and Marie hugging yesterday.
06:04If they get back together, then I'm stuck with Elmo.
06:07You need a community around you.
06:10That's what I thought you were.
06:11Bro!
06:20Bro?
06:22What's wrong?
06:23Nothing.
06:24Has Harlow done something again?
06:25It's not about Harlow.
06:27So what's this about?
06:28It's nothing.
06:28You just leave me alone.
06:29No.
06:29Not until you tell me what the matter is.
06:31Look, I'm just sick of everything always going wrong in my life.
06:35Every time I've tried to figure things out and get a plan together, it just blows up in my face.
06:39I know you've had a really tough time lately, but I'll always be here for you.
06:44You won't always, though, will you?
06:45What?
06:46No, you'll just slip me down like everyone else does.
06:48You'll be no alone.
06:49Yes, you will.
06:50All I've ever done is try to be my true self and live my life to its fullest.
06:54I don't understand why everyone has such a problem with that.
06:56I don't know.
06:58Look, whatever's upset you, the two of us, you can work this out together.
07:02No, we can't.
07:06It's too late.
07:08What does that mean?
07:12It means I want...
07:13It means I want other noise to stop.
07:22Ro?
07:24Ro!
07:24Are you sure you don't fancy coming to a business group of things?
07:30Well, I'd love to, but I need to get back to the restaurant.
07:32You think Ro's going to be okay with you turning up unannounced?
07:34Well, if he's not okay with it, all the others aren't.
07:36I'll just wait so tight.
07:37But I'm really interested in meeting other people like him.
07:40And I want our son to know that, unlike Arlo, and all the other bigots in this world,
07:44his mum and dad support him 100%.
07:46Yeah.
07:46Don't you want to tell me how selfish I'm being like getting a surgery?
08:02I don't think I'm in a position to lecture anyone on their decisions.
08:05If you're sure it's what you want, then...
08:08Then I'm with you.
08:09Look, I know you're scared.
08:12Okay, so here's my promise to you.
08:14I'm going to keep away from Rex,
08:15and I'm going to stay off Spice.
08:19Okay, I love you.
08:21And I want to be here for you.
08:24So to start, I've booked us a holiday.
08:26Really? Where to? Blackpool again?
08:29No.
08:30Okay, what's one part of the world you've always wanted to see?
08:32I've always wanted to see the pyramids.
08:33You know, I thought they were cool.
08:34You know, with the mummies and stuff.
08:37Exactly.
08:38I have booked us a holiday to Egypt.
08:41Yeah, right. Give up.
08:43Seriously?
08:44Right, me and Frankie made enough money,
08:45nightclub repping,
08:46and I figured it would be easier to stay away from temptation
08:48if I'm far from here.
08:52Okay, we leave tomorrow.
08:54All three of us.
08:55Could we leave that soon?
08:58Yeah, we can.
08:59All right, we will.
09:02I promise you,
09:03I'm going to keep off drugs.
09:04I'm going to make all your dreams come true.
09:07I'm going to make all your dreams come true.
09:09I'm going to make all your dreams come true.
09:10I'm going to make all your dreams come true.
09:11I'm going to make all your dreams come true.
09:18Bye.
09:18Bye.
09:19Bye.
09:20Bye.
09:21I'm,
09:21I'm, I'm, I'm so sorry for just
09:24barging him but I was,
09:26I was hoping to find me son in here,
09:27Ro.
09:28He's trans.
09:29Wait.
09:30You're Ro's mum?
09:32Yeah.
09:33Why, do you know him?
09:35Kind of. We've chatted online.
09:38He's been going through a lot, and so have I, so...
09:41We've helped each other out.
09:42And here's me, telling him off for being on his phone so much.
09:46Why don't you sit in for a bit and see what we're all about?
09:51Well, yeah, I mean, yeah, I'd like that. Thanks.
09:55OK. Hey, everyone.
10:01Good-bye.
10:29Hi, Nina.
10:30All I want to be doing is watching make-up tutorials
10:33and figuring out which member of new genes I have a crush on.
10:38But instead, I'm fighting.
10:44Fighting to be who I am.
10:47Fighting people that want to speak for me.
10:52There's these boys at school.
10:53They found out about me, and it's been really scary.
11:03They've been saying that I shouldn't be here.
11:06And, honestly, I've thought about it.
11:12And how do you feel now?
11:16Determined.
11:18I'm going to go to school with my head held high,
11:20and I'm just really thankful for the help I've got from this group.
11:24Yeah.
11:24Just like you've helped Ro.
11:28You know what?
11:28Just hearing you speak.
11:31And the fact that you are getting on with your life despite everything.
11:36I was really lucky to have a friend like you.
11:38Excuse me.
11:45Thank you, me.
11:45Hello?
11:46Mrs Hutchinson, it's Kathleen Angel.
11:49Hi, I'm Rubina.
11:50I'm really worried Ro might be going to do you something stupid.
11:59Nothing is going to change overnight.
12:02Everyone's going to be better off the other than me alive.
12:04Just remember, no-one cares about you,
12:06and no-one will ever want to be near you.
12:09Ro stabbed my son.
12:11He deserves to be punished.
12:12Is your mum all right?
12:13I don't know what she's told you,
12:15but she tried to top herself last night.
12:17And who can blame her?
12:18Having a freak of a daughter like you.
12:19No.
12:22Make it stop.
12:25Make it stop, make it up.
12:26Stop.
12:28Did you make a resolution?
12:29No.
12:30No, please.
12:30I've got one for you.
12:33Kill yourself.
12:35Just remember, no-one cares about you.
12:49Bro, you need to ring me back as soon as you get that message
12:58and let us know that you're okay.
12:59Bro, what's wrong?
13:00We need to go and find Ro.
13:01What?
13:02Just come on.
13:03Hello, you're through to the Lilac Lime project.
13:16What would you like to talk about today?
13:17You okay?
13:24Okay.
13:26Good.
13:28Because I want to have a little chat with you
13:30and I want you to be completely honest with me, all right?
13:34Okay.
13:35Where did you learn it?
13:40This hatred for trans people?
13:46Arlo, talk to me.
13:49Was it...
13:50Was it social media?
13:52Was it school?
13:54No.
13:55Where, then?
13:56Nowhere.
13:57I need to understand where this hateful behaviour came from.
14:00I don't hate trans people.
14:02Then why did you make Ro's life an utter misery?
14:08Arlo, I'm just trying to understand.
14:14All right, I'll tell you then.
14:17It's because Ro had everything and I had nothing.
14:20What are you talking about?
14:22The only time when I was ever really happy
14:25is when I was living with Dad in Ireland
14:27and away from you.
14:32And then I was brought here.
14:36And I found out that the only reason I was with him
14:39was because Abe was paying him.
14:42He didn't really want me.
14:45I saw how much attention Ro was getting
14:47and how much his mum and dad really loved him.
14:51I was jealous.
14:54He had everything that I wanted.
14:57His parents supported him to be whoever he wanted to be.
15:01So I lashed out.
15:03And I hate myself for it.
15:07Mum, I really do.
15:08Just to let you know, there's no rush.
15:16I'm happy to sit here with you until you're ready to speak.
15:21Would you like to tell me your name?
15:24Do I have to?
15:25No.
15:26Anything you say here is up to you
15:28and totally confidential.
15:30You could even make up a name if you prefer.
15:32So what's prompted you to call us today?
15:39Are you safe right now?
15:45I don't know.
15:46I'm sorry to hear that.
15:49What's making you feel unsafe?
15:55Are you calling with thoughts of suicide?
15:57I've been getting bullied.
16:11Like, really badly bullied for a long time now.
16:17It started at school
16:18and now it's happening at home
16:21and I can't escape it.
16:24I just wanted to stop.
16:30Is there anyone you can talk to about this bullying?
16:33I'm trans, but that's not it.
16:35I mean, I mean, that's not why I want to...
16:38I think that's why I get bullied.
16:41People don't understand about us.
16:43They're told that trans people are some sort of threat,
16:45but really we're just trying to live our lives.
16:50Yesterday's something really bad happened.
16:52Mike, any sign?
16:54It just keeps going to voicemail
16:55when I've called the kids
16:57so they don't look on phone-up.
16:58Marie, have you seen Ro anywhere?
17:00No, sorry.
17:01Everything all right?
17:08Tony?
17:09What's that?
17:11I bought this in Wales for Ro.
17:13Then why have you got it?
17:15I think it might be his way of saying goodbye.
17:17Oh, no.
17:21Please, please.
17:22Please.
17:24Yeah, I want to report my son missing.
17:26We think he might be in danger.
17:29From himself.
17:32My mum has a problem with drinking.
17:35And I'm worried that as long as I'm around,
17:39she's never going to stop.
17:41She almost died because of it.
17:44Why do you feel that you're to blame?
17:46Because of your gender identity?
17:48No, my parents are fine with that.
17:51Oh, that's good to hear.
17:53Can you tell me a little bit more about what they're like?
17:55Well, my dad thinks he's hilarious all the time.
18:01Me and my siblings make fun of him quite a lot,
18:03but to be honest, he's actually really funny.
18:06He always stands up for me.
18:09And my mum,
18:10she's been through a lot,
18:13but she's so strong.
18:14It doesn't sound like they'd want you to be gone.
18:20Sounds like they love you.
18:24Yeah, they do.
18:29Tony, I don't think I can deal with this.
18:31Like, where is he?
18:32No, we need to think straight.
18:33If I'd been through the hell that Road had,
18:35I'd want to go somewhere familiar,
18:36somewhere that I felt safe.
18:37He's kind of over there.
18:42For the rest of our lives
18:46If these wings could fly
19:03Well, what did you do?
19:09Nothing.
19:11Are you sure?
19:12You haven't hurt yourself for anything.
19:15I...
19:15I don't know about it.
19:18But then I spoke to a person on the phone
19:19and they helped me.
19:22Listen, I know this feeling will pass
19:25and I don't want to do it.
19:28I was wrong about everything.
19:30I need you both.
19:31I want to be here.
19:33I want to be here.
19:34I want to be here.
20:03I want to be here.
20:04You don't know that I guess.
20:05I want to be here.
20:05I want to be here.
20:06You
