00:18THE END
00:19Is this how you get out soon and I'm not here?
00:22You'd be surprised.
00:23You decided to tell me this the day before our wedding.
00:25Or, what you've seen is me in a happy place.
00:29Can't think why.
00:30Right, well, I've got some more cards here from some relatives that are too tired to make the trip or to buy as a gift.
00:35And I've had a feel of him. Can't feel any cash in there.
00:38But, our Debbie did send this before she swung off to Australia.
00:42Just can't really work out who it's for.
00:44My guess will be you because I think it'll go perfectly with your dress.
00:47Hey, watch it, you.
00:48Oh, you'll be wearing this dinner.
00:49Oh my God, I sound like a fish wife already.
00:51Well, that is it. The wedding's off.
00:53Well, don't tell our bell that.
00:54She's bombed it back from Shetland to make sure everything's ready for tomorrow.
00:59What do you mean Shetland? Since when did she go there?
01:03I don't know. No one knew, apparently, apart from Kate and Moira.
01:06She went to a surprise night, but it was a wasted trip anyway because we weren't even there.
01:10Okay, and was that it? Or did she try and follow him on to God knows where?
01:14Well, I didn't ask. Why was the problem?
01:17Nothing. Nothing. It's just...
01:21I'm not being difficult or anything, but it would have been good to have had bell with us yesterday when we checked the village hall.
01:27That's all not off on some wild goose chase.
01:29Yeah, and she did say sorry for that, John.
01:31She just said she needs to speak to Kane and then we're a priority.
01:33I'll tell you what, no tantrums needed with this, is there, princess?
01:37Do you not think it's weird that Nate didn't even turn up in Shetland?
01:40Yeah, but you said he'd text them about having another job.
01:43Yeah, even that seems off. Why would he suddenly just change his mind?
01:46Maybe he's decided to make a fresh start without me in his life. I mean, can you blame him?
01:51I know you fell out, but do you really think he'd do that to Frankie?
01:54Yeah, I know that. But he's not exactly had a great role model in his life, has he?
01:59Don't say that. If anything, what you did was because of me.
02:03Look, you were ill.
02:04No, I'm not just talking about my tumour, but...
02:07You wouldn't have been so angry if there wasn't already a scab to pick at with me and Nate.
02:11And that got the same for Debbie, does it?
02:13Whichever way you look at it, two of my kids don't want to be anywhere near me.
02:19Where are you going, Kane?
02:20I need to get my head straight.
02:23Sorry, I should have just kept my mouth shut.
02:26No, you're worried. It's understandable.
02:29But Kane's also dealing with Debbie's big news, so just give him time.
02:39Oh, I hope that's you trying your mum again.
02:41If you do finally get through, please tell her from me there's a few things I'd like to get off my chest.
02:45Oh, because that'll really help.
02:47Well, what am I meant to do?
02:49I didn't get a chance to say goodbye to her either, you know.
02:52You know, Aberdeen, Australia, married, single, what difference does it make?
02:55Well, she kind of should have told us that she was doing something life-changing, but oh no.
03:00There she goes, being all spontaneous, not caring the world.
03:04Sorry. I'm sorry. I don't mean to go off on one, but I keep flitting between feeling really upset and flaming furious.
03:12I mean, what about your condition? What if you got ill?
03:16Well, I've coped so far, haven't I?
03:19Look, I need to go to work. I'm sorry, darling, but if I see Kane, we'll have a chat.
03:22Maybe we could do, like, a video call with our Debs. I'm sure she'd love to show you a swimming pool.
03:26Oh, what's the point? What difference would it make?
03:30Look, why don't I ring Chas, see if she'll do my shift, and then you're not on your own?
03:33Look, I can look after myself. That's one thing Mum taught me, if nothing else.
03:38Fine. Well, we can pick this up when I get back, yeah?
03:42See ya.
03:43Ah, I thought I heard the car. You excited for half-term? Freedom.
03:53Where's Lucas?
03:54Football practice. Very excited about the boots.
03:56Glad to hear it.
03:58Hey, I, erm, I'm sorry that I had to take the scooters back.
04:03She's alright, aren't you?
04:06We're gonna rehearse Clemmie's lines for the school play.
04:09Ooh, exciting.
04:10Well, let me know if you need any extras.
04:13What do you think?
04:14Thought it was just gonna be us two.
04:17Well, let me know if you change your mind, okay?
04:22Sorry.
04:23Yeah, I get it.
04:25She didn't say no, so that's an improvement.
04:28Shame, though.
04:29Would've been nice to spend some time with you.
04:31If you can bear it.
04:33Is this you fishing for attention?
04:35Yeah, maybe.
04:36Maybe.
04:39Missed talking to you, though.
04:41Not just like this, like, in passing, but...
04:44We really get each other, don't we?
04:48Well, I'll have to give it to you. You don't give up.
04:51Where you're concerned? No.
04:53Until you tell me to get lost, that is.
04:54Maybe I can find time for a coffee.
04:59After this.
05:01If you can wait that long.
05:05Okay.
05:09You know, Cain, I mean, first are Debs, and now this about Nate.
05:12I'm not surprised he's gone down the dock and brooding mode.
05:15Hey.
05:16What was that about Nate?
05:17Did you, um, did you find him in Shetland?
05:19No, he never turned up for his job, apparently.
05:21Seriously?
05:22Yeah, he'd text him, like, a week later, saying,
05:24I've got something else, and that was it.
05:26Well, you didn't say where.
05:27That's why I'm worried something's happened to him.
05:29I can't even find him. It just flatlines.
05:31I can't even leave a message.
05:33Well, I didn't do that last month when I tried him.
05:35Well, maybe he's changed his number,
05:36cos he doesn't want to be found.
05:38He did pick his stuff up.
05:40Says something, right?
05:41Yeah, but you didn't say I should tell Tracy.
05:43She deserves to nap.
05:45Well, before you do that, um,
05:48any chance we could talk about the wedding
05:50you're meant to be organising?
05:52Oh, careful.
05:54John's just about to go all grooms ill, aren't you?
05:57Well, it is tomorrow,
05:59and you have been kind of AWOL on us.
06:01Just be good if you could cast your eye over the new venue.
06:04Don't want any last-minute surprises.
06:11He's here. How are we looking?
06:12It's four plants.
06:13It's going to be very hard to mess this up.
06:16Well, you need to get him to do more of this.
06:17Sadly, they're going to cover the cost of...
06:18I know what I've got to do.
06:20I don't need you pecking me head.
06:23Say, what are we looking at?
06:24Lewis!
06:26Whoa! You're like a little ninja sneaking up on us there.
06:29What, so that wasn't you outside keeping watch?
06:30No, keeping watch?
06:32No, no, I was outside breathing.
06:34It's very fresh.
06:35Ignore this idiot.
06:36He was just leaving.
06:37Am I?
06:40Oh, yeah, yeah.
06:41Yeah, of course.
06:42I will leave you two botanists to it.
06:44Happy growing.
06:46I was, er, just thinking.
06:48As this space is so big,
06:50maybe I could add a few extra, but...
06:52You do know the substrate is all wrong?
06:55Is that a trick question?
06:57Erm, no.
06:58No.
06:59It was a rhetorical question.
07:00The answer was implied.
07:02You've added something.
07:03What?
07:04Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
07:05The compost.
07:06Mike said they would make any veg grow twice as large in half the time.
07:09This isn't a vegetable, you dope.
07:11It's an annual herb.
07:13You just called me a dope.
07:15Was that a pun?
07:16You've got to replant them now.
07:17Alright, alright.
07:18It's not going to take that long.
07:19It's four plants.
07:21And I was just thinking,
07:22why don't we add a few extra plants to make it more worthwhile?
07:24I thought you said this was a personal use.
07:26No, no, no, it is.
07:28But I was just talking to a friend and he was really struggling.
07:31He said it looked like he was struggling.
07:33No, not him.
07:34Believe it or not, I do have more than one friend.
07:36Matt could do with a chill pill, but no, this is for Ryan.
07:39He's got cerebral palsy.
07:41Okay, well, I'll see what I can do.
07:44Works for me.
07:45Here.
07:46You, er, keeping busy?
07:55That is how a job usually works.
07:58Especially when Eric's your boss.
08:00What are you doing here anyway?
08:02Shouldn't you be getting all excited for the big wedding tomorrow?
08:05Yep, yep.
08:06Just on the way to meet Belle.
08:08Now she's back from Scotland.
08:10She went to find Nate.
08:16And?
08:17And he wasn't there.
08:19Never turned up, got another job apparently.
08:21No one knows where.
08:23What?
08:24So that means he lied to me when he texted me that he was there?
08:29Wow.
08:31He really wanted to disappear.
08:33No, I'm sorry to open up old wounds.
08:35Just, er...
08:36Well, I get the sense Belle thinks something might have happened to him.
08:39Maybe, he's just not that nice guy everyone thought he was.
08:42I thought we'd better warn you, that's all.
08:44Belle says she's gonna speak to you, so...
08:46I just wish people had let me and Frankie move on with our lives.
08:49Well, if you ask me, you're better off without him.
08:52Frankie's lucky to wham you.
08:55Let's hope that's enough.
08:57Of course it is.
09:00Hey, you know, um...
09:02Growing up, I, er...
09:04I had a stepdad for a while, but it never bothered me that my real dad abandoned us.
09:08Mum made sure of that.
09:11Now, you are an amazing mum.
09:14And you'll do the same for Frankie.
09:21Are you sure I can't grab your tea or anything?
09:23Oh, no, no, I'm fine, Tara.
09:25I, erm...
09:26I saw Charity earlier.
09:28She filled me in on your mum.
09:31So...
09:32I was just passing and I thought I'd...
09:34check in.
09:35I mean, not that I'm reporting back or anything.
09:37I mean, she didn't specifically ask me to call round.
09:40I was just passing and...
09:41Yeah, look, you don't have to explain yourself.
09:42I know I can trust you.
09:43Phew!
09:44Tied myself up in knots there.
09:45Can't have been easy finding out about your mum's life-changing news, though.
09:50Married and Australia.
09:53Mind blown or what?
09:54Yeah, I think Grant expects me to kick off about it.
09:56But, you know, at the end of the day, I'm not a kid anymore.
09:58I've got my own life, my own problems.
10:00Anything I can do to help with those?
10:03I mean, I'm on call, but, well, until this rings, I'm all yours.
10:07Hey, you sure you're okay?
10:11Yeah, I'm fine.
10:12I'm just sick of waiting for stuff to happen.
10:14I mean, why does everything have to take so long?
10:16You mean the IVF?
10:19Maybe if you spoke to Charity sooner rather than later...
10:23Look, she'll only try and stop me from going through with it.
10:25Oh, she might surprise you.
10:27Perfect timing.
10:30Oh, sorry, I, erm, I do need to take this.
10:36Er, but, look, I meant what I said.
10:39When you're ready, I am here.
10:41Come in.
10:54Well, someone's in a bad mood.
10:57Please tell me it's not the wedding.
10:59No, I had a daft idea that maybe Nate had just blocked the family,
11:04so I thought if I'd call him off the landline...
11:07And?
11:08No, it's still dead. It just doesn't make sense.
11:11What, that you'd want to leave the village and start a new life as far away from Kane as possible?
11:15All that's changed now.
11:17Kane left him a message about Moira's tumour ages ago.
11:20And he obviously still doesn't want to be found.
11:23Look, he went to Shetland.
11:26He wasn't there.
11:27Cleared his stuff.
11:28Nobody has a forwarding number or address.
11:30There...
11:31There is nothing more you can do.
11:33Maybe there's nothing I can do, but...
11:36The police can.
11:38If our partner is a missing person.
11:40I can't let you do that.
11:43I can't let you do that.
11:44All I'm saying is, if you're gonna go to the police about Nate, then you should talk to Tracy first.
12:09It's her and Frankie's lives that will be disrupted by any investigation.
12:13Seriously?
12:16The police?
12:18Why would you call them?
12:19Because if I report him as a missing person, then they might investigate. They could find him.
12:24Oh, great. And then what? Drag him back to where he doesn't want to be?
12:27Well, at least we'd know he's okay.
12:28He's had his things collected. What does that tell you?
12:31Do you have any idea how hard it's been for me, keeping Frankie feeling loved and special ever since he just upped and left us?
12:37Well, this is my point. I just don't believe he'd do that.
12:39Well, he did. Okay? And that's on him. And now you want to phone the police and dredge everything back up.
12:44No, I don't.
12:45Well, then please don't. I'm begging you. Leave Nate wherever he is and let me and Frankie try to move on without him.
12:53Because... Because I can't face losing him all over again.
12:58Hey, hey. It's okay. I'm sure it won't come to that.
13:04Of course. Yeah, it's not going to come to that. I'm sorry. It was a stupid idea.
13:08Can we please don't do that?
13:19Do what?
13:21Make it that obvious that you're avoiding me. I was only going to say hi.
13:24Hi? I wasn't avoiding you. But Cain's kind of in my ear and I've just got a million things to do, so...
13:31Yeah, you can do that. It's a family thing. Sorry.
13:37For what?
13:39Well, I just thought, erm... Do you know what? Forget I said anything.
13:43Sarah. Maybe, erm, another time. Yeah?
13:48Yeah. Just text me when you're less busy.
13:51Hey. How you doing?
13:55Why? What's Grant told you?
13:57No, nothing. Just being friendly. Maybe checking up a little bit, you know, after Debs and that.
14:03Oh, it's fine. Mum is welcome to her perfect new life.
14:06Yeah, some people might call that avoiding the issue.
14:10Well, they'd be wrong, so...
14:11If you say so. But just so you know, I've got my eye on you anyway.
14:17Well, haven't you got a wedding to be thinking about?
14:19Oh, you're good! Even so.
14:22Huh? Huh? See you tomorrow.
14:36Got us some fries while we're at it.
14:38Why?
14:39Because I'm hungry and I'm allowed to treat my kid brother, aren't I?
14:42And what if I don't like fries?
14:44Do you like fries?
14:46Yeah, but the point is, you didn't ask first. I might not be hungry.
14:49Then I'll just have two portions. As far as I could get them to take out.
14:52Oh, my days. We stopped going on about the fries.
14:55Now, he messaged to say that you had something for me. I'm guessing it's what we spoke about on the bonus.
15:00What you said about Ryan made me think?
15:02Look, I'm just trying to help a mate manage his pain.
15:05Put four pants. That's good stuff, all right?
15:08Call it a sample. Plenty more where that came from.
15:11Did you make all of these?
15:14How many plants have you got?
15:17Enough. I grow them on rotation, so there's always a harvest.
15:20See, that's the kind of thing I could be doing if I had more plants.
15:23Well, work with what you got first. You don't want to run before you can walk.
15:26Where are you going?
15:29Oh, just seeing a friend. Enjoy the double fries.
15:40So, where are the plants you promised?
15:43There are none. He showed up with gummies instead.
15:47Right, so what are we going to do?
15:49Well, if you won't give us any more plants, we'll just have to take them. Won't we?
15:56Okay, I can make this thing work myself, okay? I don't need you pushing me around.
16:00Maybe. I just enjoy the power.
16:02See, there you go again. What am I supposed to do?
16:04Ah, signals like that.
16:06I think you're just looking for them, okay? I am just having a laugh with a friend.
16:11Is that where we are now? Friends. No benefits.
16:15Oh my God, did you actually just say that?
16:17I just want to see where I stand, metaphorically speaking.
16:22You've already said that you still love me.
16:24You don't give up, do you?
16:26Absolutely not.
16:27Well, stop throwing your money around. You can't buy my affection.
16:31I wouldn't dare.
16:37Yeah, look, I know it was only yesterday. I've just been going out of my mind, Wayne, that's all.
16:42Now I get it, you'll be in touch.
16:45Thanks.
16:50Hey!
16:51So, I thought you might like to know Grump is in the pub.
16:54And Chas?
16:56Nothing major.
16:57Just, er, let's call it a bit of pre-wedding excitement.
17:00Yeah, I'm not really in the mood.
17:02Oh, come on, baby, it'll cheer you up.
17:04And don't pretend you're not fed up about your mum, because I know you are, I am too.
17:08But hey, we can have a little whinge about how she's dropped us both in it.
17:12What do you mean?
17:14Well, you know, your mum doing what she does, leaving me to pick up the pieces kind of thing.
17:18Oh, right, and I'm the pieces, am I?
17:20No, it's a figure of speech.
17:23Well, now, let's face it, I have kind of been more of a mother to you than she has, whether I liked it or not.
17:27Oh, because this is all about you, is it?
17:30No, I just mean that we're making the best of a bad situation.
17:34Oh, and I'm the bad situation. You know, it's really good to know where I stand.
17:37Sarah, you're twisting my words.
17:39Look, take it out on your mum, all right? Not me.
17:41There's no point. You know what? I really don't need this right now.
17:43And you think I do?
17:45You're not the only one whose life this affects.
17:47Fine, have it your way.
17:49Do you know what? From now on, I will cope on my own. I don't need you or anyone else.
17:52No, Sarah, please wait.
17:54Come back!
18:01How about a holiday?
18:02Nothing planned. Cabin in the woods for all I care.
18:05As long as it's just us.
18:11Hello?
18:36Is this social services?
18:40My name's Clemmie Reid.
18:47I need your help.
18:51I'm scared of my mum's new boyfriend.
18:56Hey!
18:59No pressure, but do you think you could lose the face until after the wedding?
19:04It's just that I want it to be a really special day for Aaron.
19:07Yeah. I know. Me too.
19:10I mean, me and him have had our wilderness years, haven't we?
19:13I mean, he went off to Italy for yonks, then when he came back he hated me for what had happened with Al, and then he blamed me for Liv's death.
19:20I mean, it's full set, really.
19:23I hope that's not you practising your wedding speech.
19:26No, this is me telling you not to be so hard on yourself.
19:29There's still a chance that Nate could come good.
19:32And well, Debbie, she's got a whole new continent to annoy, hasn't she?
19:36So, not all bad, right?
19:38Marlon has smashed the food for tomorrow.
19:41Good. I hope he has. He's been stressing enough.
19:43Oh, it's going to be amazing. You've done us proud.
19:45Well, thank you. That is my job. And thanks for helping me get my priorities in line.
19:50Yeah. Sorry about that. I could see you getting in your head about Nate.
19:54No, you were right. I wasn't thinking straight.
19:57Look, we might not like him, but he's a grown man. He can make his own decisions.
20:00We've all done our fair share of running away. He'll be back when he's ready.
20:05I'll drink to that.
20:07Well, you could, couldn't you? But maybe not, cos, well, tomorrow's a big day and you need a clear head.
20:12Oh, hang on. Mother-in-law has spoken.
20:15And she's right. You know, marrying Aaron, being a part of this family,
20:21I can't tell you what that means to me. It's all I want.
20:23There's definitely something wrong with him. It'll wear off.
20:28Please don't try and put him off.
20:30It's going to take a lot more than that, believe me. See you all tomorrow.
20:34Well, you better, or we'll come and find you.
20:36Come eat hot food.
20:38Hey, I've been calling you.
20:42I'm sorry, my phone's been on silent. Why, what's up?
20:45I've just had the water company on the phone.
20:48Don't tell me they've found more contamination.
20:50No, not yet. But they said they're going to drive to the lake tomorrow to make sure.
20:55What? But why?
20:57All I know is that it's going to cost us thousands of pounds and they expect me to pay the bill.
21:01We could lose everything, Cain.
21:03Yeah, we don't know that yet. Let's just wait and see what they find.
