00:25Yes, Harry?

00:26All right. Listen, I know it's, um, I don't know quite about it now, but, um, just wondering if I could bring my car in later.

00:32Yeah. I just got to shift my dad's motor first, but you bring it around this afternoon if you want.

00:36Thank you. I appreciate that. Yeah. Are you applying?

00:39All right.

00:40Oi! Are you studying on a day off?

00:43No, just reading for pleasure.

00:45How are we related?

00:47You'd love this, Tempest.

00:49It's basically like a gangster movie.

00:51Italian geezer gets cast out of the mob, creates this whole revenge plot.

00:56No, no, no. Hear me out. Shakespeare, all right.

00:59It's the 16th century Martin Scorsese.

01:01It'll be five minutes of any longer, Mr. Sharp.

01:04It's not on board. It's all right.

01:11Are you sure?

01:12Yeah.

01:14Dad.

01:18Is it?

01:20You've got to see him, Barney.

01:22It's just tough.

01:24I know.

01:26But I still think...

01:27I know what you think.

01:28Mate, can you turn that down, please?

01:30Come on.

01:32You've just got to get something sorted first.

01:35What are you saying?

01:36To get some money behind us to support us until we get settled.

01:39Me, Whitney, Dolly...

01:41And Barney.

01:44Oh, come on, Zach.

01:46He is going to want to be with his mum and dad.

01:48He doesn't know his mum. He's a murderer.

01:51I'm going to take my car into Harry later.

01:53I knew he's had to get closer to him.

01:54Even if you became his best mate,

01:57it would all change when he found out the truth.

01:59You are about to rip her family apart.

02:02What about Nicola?

02:03What is she going to do to you?

02:04I can't make sure she can't find this.

02:07I just need some cash.

02:12Me?

02:15I'm already in debt to Sharon.

02:17She wouldn't want you doing this either.

02:18Fine.

02:19What are you doing?

02:20If you can't help me, I'll find someone who can.

02:23I've got to do something, haven't I?

02:25Right, just run it through one more time.

02:34Prospero is this all-powerful Duke of Milan.

02:36Yeah.

02:36Right, got it.

02:38So, then he has this magic fairy

02:40that gets to do all his dirty work.

02:41Wait, hang on.

02:42There was no magic fairy in The Godfather.

02:44Fairies aren't real.

02:45Yeah, exactly, coach.

02:46Yeah, all right.

02:47Let me explain to you one more time.

02:48Go on, then.

02:49Well, they live on this island...

02:50Let me guess.

02:52Shakespeare wrote the first gangster movie.

02:55What do you want?

02:57Look, I just came over to see if you fancied a drink later.

03:02Or a bit of food.

03:03You know?

03:04Don't have to get into anything heavy.

03:05No pressure or nothing.

03:07Just a beer.

03:08I think you should.

03:10Come on, his dad.

03:12Got to try and find a way through this.

03:21Sweet.

03:25You all right?

03:30You, uh...

03:31You think you're not doing some mega-magnet line?

03:34Birthday breakfast, is it?

03:37Well, your birthday was yesterday.

03:38I didn't get a cake.

03:40It's not really a birthday, is it, if you don't get a cake?

03:43Well, you didn't want a fuss.

03:44Who's making a fuss?

03:47You're making a fuss.

03:48You said you landed off to cook a meal, wasn't it?

03:51I didn't want a meal.

03:53What are you banging on about?

03:54Well, I don't know.

03:54You just, uh...

03:55You seem upset.

03:57It's not even my birthday, anyway.

03:59It's gone, then.

04:13Why do you need a loan?

04:17What sort of trouble are you in?

04:18It's messy.

04:22I just need to leave you on them for a bit.

04:24Maybe I can help.

04:26Talks me.

04:30I've just got a bit of a situation with, um...

04:34Nicola Mitchell.

04:36Pass me the sugar.

04:47I'll work for him.

04:50Don't take any chances.

04:52Not with her.

04:55What's for your dealer?

04:56And the rest.

04:57All right, we're done.

04:58Do you want her money?

04:59No, nothing like that.

05:01Okay.

05:03Have you had a thing with her?

05:06You are.

05:07All right.

05:09Come on, Zay.

05:10You can trust me.

05:10She wants me out of the picture.

05:15Because, um...

05:17Her boy, Barney, is mine.

05:24Yeah.

05:26And now I know he's my son.

05:27I don't want him to do with that family.

05:29Listen, mate, tell me I'm mad.

05:30I just...

05:31No, no, no, no.

05:32You're right to worry.

05:34She's wrapped up in all sorts of stuff.

05:36She came to me the other week needing her favour.

05:40Asked me to move her body.

05:43Would you go to the police?

05:44Are you mad?

05:45Mate, that's what I need.

05:46Get her out of the picture.

05:46I can talk to Barney, get him away from you.

05:48Well, that's what you want the money for,

05:49to get Barney away from you?

05:50She threatened, Whitney.

05:52I've had to send her into hiding.

05:53Please.

05:53No, mate.

05:54You need to drop it and keep your mouth shut.

05:56Trust me, she's that dangerous,

05:57and you will end up in a body bank.

05:59I'm sorry, I can't help you.

06:05Mate, come back.

06:08I'm sorry.

06:08I'm sorry, I can't help you.

06:39What do you want, Barney?

06:40I don't know.

06:41I just feel bad.

06:42It's been kind of tense between us,

06:44and I'm sorry about that.

06:45I ain't really in the mood of this, you know.

06:47I just want you to say hi.

06:48Yeah, cool.

06:49Is this about you and Joel?

06:51Are you together now?

06:53Sorry, what have you heard?

06:54Just stuff.

06:55Yeah, well, mind your business, okay?

06:57Because you don't know nothing.

06:58Well, wait.

07:05That's a bit harsh, isn't it?

07:07I don't know.

07:08It's probably my fault.

07:09Don't be so tough on yourself.

07:10Come on.

07:11I just wanted to be happy.

07:14Okay, then take my advice.

07:16If you really care about someone,

07:17never give up on them.

07:20Thanks.

07:29You all right?

07:36Yeah, well, she's gone to Stade Linds.

07:38Oh, poor Stace.

07:39Yeah, I think she just wanted to get away to her head, you know.

07:42God bless her and those children.

07:44I just think we all need a little bit of good news, don't we?

07:47I mean, I was thinking about Lauren and what would you mean.

07:49Oh, yes.

07:50All on top of our brother, dear, Leon.

07:51Listen, I don't know about good news,

07:53but I do have some breaking news.

07:54Old Phil Mitchell fancies himself as a master baker.

07:58Alfie!

07:59Hey, Phil, make sure you give it a good stir,

08:00because you really don't want to end up with a soggy bottom.

08:05Okay, that was awkward.

08:07Phil, can I give you this birthday card for Nigel?

08:10It's a bit relieved today.

08:11It was Nigel's birthday.

08:12Oh, why didn't we celebrate?

08:15You said he didn't want the fuss.

08:16Well, he seems to have changed his tune to that some more than he.

08:19Have you got it up with me, because I didn't get him a cake?

08:21Oh.

08:23Oh, so you're going to make him one, then?

08:26What about it?

08:27Well, I didn't see you pop around to Billy's with a birthday cake.

08:30Just saying.

08:32Third of May.

08:34You've had a difficult morning, then.

08:36Yeah, he was shouting at me, I don't know.

08:38It was about a birthday or what it was about.

08:40Well, he was a little shot with me, as well.

08:43I think he was upset above clear.

08:45It was her 40th a few days ago.

08:49I just talked with him.

08:51A few choice words is a lot easier than baking a cake.

08:59Barney.

09:01Wow.

09:01Yeah, please, don't tell anyone.

09:04No, of course not.

09:05Okay.

09:06Just a bit lost with it all.

09:11And if Martin was still here.

09:13I know.

09:14I know.

09:17We talk about her big stuff, then he'd just make a joke.

09:20He couldn't be serious for too long.

09:22Missing, Linda.

09:28Have you called Sharon?

09:30Well, she knows.

09:32Just don't want to worry her while she's away.

09:35Well, look.

09:37Yeah, she's my best mate.

09:39Why don't you try talking to me like you talk to her?

09:42I just feel like I could give Barney a better chance in life.

09:52Teenagers, though.

09:53It's harder than you think.

09:55Did all right with Tommy, didn't I?

09:57Yeah, I suppose.

09:59Not just the fun stuff.

10:00I'm a foster parent.

10:01I've got what it takes.

10:02Do you know what?

10:02I'm ready.

10:03I'm ready to step up and be a proper dad.

10:07Up?

10:08I don't really think Nicola could kill me.

10:15She's that dangerous?

10:16Yes.

10:17Harry was in love with Shireen.

10:20Her own son.

10:21The love of his life.

10:23Nicola killed her.

10:24What?

10:25Yeah.

10:27She admitted it.

10:28She told me.

10:29Okay.

10:30I mean, maybe she did, but it was probably an accident.

10:34Not an accident.

10:34She meant it.

10:35She says she'd do it again.

10:38Well, then, then why would you risk all this?

10:41You know, you've got Dolly as well.

10:43You can't be anything to anyone if you're dead.

10:46I can't sit back and do nothing.

10:49Then, think like a parent.

10:53You know, if you say you're ready to step up,

10:57what's the most responsible, grown-up thing to do

11:00if you think your son is living with a killer?

11:05Go to bleed.

11:08What's that?

11:08Yeah, mate.

11:13I'm sorry, mate, for shutting you down like that.

11:16Yeah.

11:18Now, look, I've made a few phone calls

11:20and I can get you that money.

11:22Oh, it's all right.

11:23He doesn't need it.

11:23He's going to do the right thing.

11:26Women, they blow hot and cold all the time, mate.

11:36So, you don't think I should try and talk to her?

11:40Look, I know you like her,

11:42but if she keeps treating you like this,

11:44there comes a time when you just have to walk away.

11:46You're a good kid, right?

11:50She's the problem.

11:52Not you.

11:53Right.

11:54I'm making bacon sarnie for lunch.

11:57Who wants in?

11:58No, I'm eating Harry.

11:59What?

12:00Oh, I'll come with you.

12:01No.

12:02Well, Chelsea can manage at the bar.

12:03This is huge, Ted.

12:04I know it is,

12:05and that's why you ain't coming.

12:06What's that supposed to mean?

12:07If you're going to argue,

12:08I'm just going to go.

12:09Mate, you don't have to go.

12:10See ya.

12:14What are you kicking off for?

12:15Upsetting him?

12:16Why are you planning to meet up with our son without me?

12:18If you show up, he'll freak out.

12:20You want to mend things?

12:21You go up my pace.

12:23Understood?

12:31I'm telling you,

12:32Nicola Mitchell keeps your room for sure.

12:33And how'd you know this?

12:35She told me,

12:36and then she threatened to do the same to me.

12:39And were there any witnesses in the room

12:40when she said this?

12:42Oh, no.

12:43So it's your word against hers.

12:44She asked someone I know

12:46to move the body for her.

12:48And who was that?

12:50I can't say.

12:52Are they prepared to make a statement about it?

12:53No, but I swear to you,

12:55it happened, all right?

12:56What is your relationship

12:58with this Nicola Mitchell?

13:01I was her personal trainer,

13:03and we had a thing.

13:04An ex-girlfriend, then?

13:05Sort of.

13:06I don't know.

13:06But she didn't want no fella finding out

13:08for all sorts of reasons.

13:08He attacked me and all.

13:09They're dangerous.

13:11And did you report this attack?

13:12I was scared, all right?

13:13She's killed someone.

13:14He's coming up to protect her.

13:15Please, you don't muck about with these people.

13:17You don't believe me, do you?

13:22I can see she's already been brought in

13:25for questioning about this murder.

13:27No charges were brought against her.

13:29There's no new evidence here.

13:31This is all hearsay.

13:34Anything else?

13:37Yeah.

13:38Yeah, she told me how she killed her.

13:44Pushed her.

13:46She hit her skull on a rock,

13:47and she watched her die.

13:48None of that has been released to the public,

13:50but she told me,

13:51there is your proof.

13:52It's, uh...

14:16From your land, eh?

14:17Birthday card.

14:20Did you ask her to write it?

14:22No, of course I didn't.

14:23Were you all right, Nick?

14:25No.

14:28I know that I...

14:30I didn't get you a cake yesterday,

14:33and I'm sorry,

14:33is that what's upsetting you?

14:37Do you wish we'd have done something

14:39to celebrate her?

14:42Was this about Claire?

14:47Felt wrong to celebrate just me.

14:50Because I wasn't there for her,

14:53but then I thought,

14:55I'm missing out.

14:58I don't know how many more birthdays I've got left.

15:02How many where I actually know what's going on.

15:07Let's do something, yeah?

15:11You know,

15:12it's not too late.

15:12Let's...

15:13Whatever you want, yeah?

15:16I'm going to go to the cinema.

15:19All right.

15:20All right, let's do it.

15:23All right.

15:23Oh, every single shift,

15:31I see you charging that thing behind the bar.

15:34Who do you think pays for that electricity, eh?

15:36Sorry.

15:36I should start docking your wages.

15:38Claire.

15:39Don't you start defending her.

15:40You are just as bad.

15:42What?

15:42How'd it go?

16:01Yeah.

16:02I did what I could.

16:03Yeah, well, I'm proud of you.

16:05This is not just about Barney, is it?

16:07A young girl was murdered.

16:09I wouldn't have gone to the police.

16:11I think it's a risk.

16:12Yeah, but you've got to do what you've got to do, I know.

16:14You know, Barney,

16:15she's not been in my life for years.

16:17I won't lose her now.

16:20I'm glad you came.

16:21Look, I ain't talking nothing ever, yeah?

16:23Well, we stick to football and cars, then, eh?

16:25Get your hands off me!

16:27What have you done now?

16:29I ain't done nothing.

16:30This is a witch hunt.

16:36Is this...

16:37Is this still about Benji?

16:39I don't know.

16:40I guess.

16:42Mate, don't...

16:43No, I'm done!

16:47I'm going to talk to him.

16:48No!

16:49I let the police deal with it.

16:50They won't keep her long.

16:51When she gets out, she will come for me,

16:53so I'm going to do this now.

16:55No, no, no, no, no, no.

16:56I can't let him go on his own, can I?

16:58Sharon will never forgive me.

17:03And we should totally start licking her flats, hmm?

17:06Already?

17:07Yeah, I mean, Dad's on board now.

17:09I could...

17:10I could help you fill out applications.

17:12Oh, hello.

17:13Are you excited about Koja getting his own place?

17:16Yeah, that's great.

17:18You all right?

17:19I'm fine.

17:20He's not fine.

17:21No.

17:22Hey, come on, talk to us.

17:24My mum just got arrested.

17:26What?

17:27For what?

17:28I don't know.

17:29Look, can you just go?

17:31I'm going to close up, all right?

17:32No, I really want to be on my own right now.

17:34So if you just go, sorry.

17:35All right.

17:36Cheers.

17:36Call me if you need me, yeah?

17:37Yeah.

17:37Come on, go.

17:38Look, mate, now's not a good time, yeah?

17:59Oh, I'll do your car another time.

18:00I ain't in here about the car, Harry.

18:03Listen.

18:04I know why your mum got arrested.

18:10Shireen.

18:10Your mum killed her.

18:16Wait, what do you know about that?

18:17She told me, mate.

18:19What did you just say?

18:20Just, just listen to him for a second.

18:22She threatened me, warned me to keep my mouth shut,

18:26said that she'd kill me like she killed Shireen.

18:29Mouth shut about what?

18:33Listen, me and her, we had this thing.

18:3816 years ago.

18:4016 years.

18:47Barney's mind.

18:53I wouldn't know how to tell a lie.

18:55I am an open book, mate.

18:57Hmm.

18:58Well, the guys from Dartford Police Station

19:00weren't exactly singing your praises.

19:03Oh, them, yeah.

19:04They've been gunning for me for years.

19:06Hmm.

19:07I think they've got issues with strong women.

19:10You must get a lot of that in this job.

19:12See, you've been in prison as well.

19:14Doesn't exactly scream honesty, does it?

19:17Well, what can I say?

19:19Prison changed me.

19:20And this is the second time your name's come up

19:22in relation to Shireen Bashar's murder.

19:24What can you tell me about the night she disappeared?

19:29You've got my alibi on record.

19:32Do we need to go over it again?

19:33What about the way she was killed?

19:35Have you ever talked to anyone about that?

19:37Yeah, I heard a bloke called Benji

19:41mouthing off about it.

19:43You know Benji.

19:44He's obsessed with me.

19:45And in prison for her murder.

19:48He told me

19:50that he pushed her,

19:53heard her skull crack,

19:55and then watched her bleed out.

19:59You know, he's another one

20:00who struggles with strong women.

20:02And you didn't think to report it?

20:06What, and have him do the same to me?

20:08No chance.

20:10Did you know where Shireen Bashar was buried?

20:13Course not.

20:15Did you ask anyone to help you move her body?

20:18Is this a joke?

20:21No.

20:22I didn't.

20:23Can you think of any reason

20:25why someone would be giving us

20:26all this information about you?

20:29Well,

20:31like I said,

20:32us strong women

20:34just rub people up the wrong way,

20:37don't we?

20:40Your mum's dangerous.

20:42She's been lying to everyone.

20:44If you heard what she said about Shireen,

20:46she weren't sorry for killing her.

20:49Not one bit.

20:51I mean, she was proud of it.

20:52No, no.

20:53It was just to scare you off.

20:55That's all that would have been.

20:56I saw it in her eyes.

20:57She's been threatening the mother of Zach's little girl.

20:59Yeah.

21:00Found out where she lived.

21:01I've had to send them into hiding.

21:05Did you call the police today?

21:08That was you, wasn't it?

21:09Yeah, what if I did?

21:11Do you not want justice for Shireen?

21:13Do you not want the truth, mate?

21:15I'm sorry, but your mum is a killer.

21:17Your dad is lying to protect her,

21:19which is just as bad,

21:20which is just as bad,

21:21just as dangerous.

21:23I think you know deep down, didn't you?

21:25Yeah.

21:29You know.

21:30You know what they're capable of.

21:35Barney,

21:36he ain't safe with them,

21:38and he deserves a better life.

21:42What are you saying?

21:42I want to take him away from here,

21:45all right?

21:45I want to take him away from her,

21:46and I want you to convince him he trusts you.

21:49He will listen to you, mate.

21:51You're going to take him away?

21:52Look, Zach.

21:53Yes, take him away to protect him.

21:54Please, you're his brother.

21:56Do the right thing, Harry.

21:57I need to leave tonight.

22:03And we both know your mum will talk about that police station.

22:06She will come for me.

22:10Talk to Barney.

22:15Please.

22:22I need to think this through.

22:25Tonight, Harry.

22:27I need to think.

22:44You all right?

22:45Yeah.

22:47Yeah, they've still got nothing on me.

22:49How are we going to explain this to Harry?

22:51I could send him off the rails.

22:53Just tell him the truth.

22:55Someone's been stirring things up.

22:57Oh.

22:59Benji again?

23:01Benji?

23:02Someone he's been blabbing to?

23:04I don't know.

23:06I'll tell you one thing.

23:07Whoever it is,

23:09they are going to pay for messing with me.

23:12Come on.

23:16Like, is it funny?

23:17No.

23:18She's honestly so trash.

23:19You would not let her anywhere near your boyfriend.

23:22She's a proper, little tramp.

23:24So embarrassing.

23:26I wouldn't show my face again if I was her.

23:29Waste my girl off the streets.

23:31My girl off the streets.

23:32Are people trolling you about the Joel thing?

23:35You said you knew all about it.

23:43That Sharon had asked you to look up.

23:45Yeah.

23:46I just can't believe he stole Harry.

23:48I did try and stop him.

23:50They tried to warn him.

23:51How dangerous she was.

23:52Grossing on someone like Nicola.

23:55What does he think is going to happen?

23:56What choice did he have?

23:58She confessed to him.

23:59But...

23:59Anything?

24:05No.

24:07Don't hear from Harry tonight.

24:09I'm going to have to go on my own.

24:12Oh, Zach.

24:13The money's on the table.

24:15Yeah.

24:17It's never going to be easy trying to divide a family.

24:20My blood's thicker than water.

24:21That's why it hurts.

24:22Barney is my blood.

24:33Barney?

24:36Barney, are you in, mate?

24:40How are we going to explain this to him?

24:42People would have seen you getting arrested.

24:44No gets about.

24:45And he ain't stupid.

24:47Leave it with me.

24:48Yeah.

24:50Leave it with her.

24:52Because you're a master when it comes to lying, isn't you?

24:54Oh, don't you start.

24:55I've had enough of all that from the old bill.

24:58Who wants a cuppa or a glass or something?

25:01I spoke to Zach.

25:04What do you think he told me?

25:05Mate, come on.

25:06Ask her.

25:07Zach's a troublemaker with a grudge against me.

25:14Hmm.

25:15Is that why you're threatening to kill him?

25:18As if I'd waste my breath on Zach.

25:21I'm going to ask you one more time.

25:24And do not lie to me.

25:28Did you kill Shireen?

25:29No.

25:32Sam, whatever you've heard...

25:33Stop defending her.

25:34No, look, listen to...

25:35She slept with Zach.

25:37What?

25:41Sixteen years ago.

25:45She's playing you for a right mug and has been for years.

25:49Because you ain't Barney's dad.

25:55Zach is.

25:56See you next time.
