00:00Well?
00:18No, I've tried calling John and Aaron. Nothing.
00:20I said to be off-grid.
00:22No-one actually means that.
00:23Who puts a dead body in a lake?
00:24It's even more stupid than digging a hole in the woods.
00:26John refused to give us a location because you said it was too much of a risk.
00:29What a joke.
00:30I'll try speaking to Victoria, see if she knows where they've gone.
00:32What good will that do now?
00:34Well, he can tell us if it's Anthony or not.
00:35Of course it's Anthony! A random body turns up. Who else is it going to be?
00:38All right, Ruby, just...
00:39At least Steph's not back till tomorrow. That's the only positive in this entire disaster.
00:43You're next of kin. You need to keep it together.
00:45What?
00:45What's the police ID, the body? They'll be straight round here to tell you it's him.
00:49Oh, my God.
00:50It's all right. You thought he was alive and you're shocked.
00:52I can't.
00:53Right, if she's acting like this, we're done for.
00:59Is this all you?
01:07All me. Getting pretty nippy in these wheels.
01:11Freezer.
01:12Delivery from town.
01:14Wow!
01:14Yeah, but we had some celebrating to do.
01:19Er, sorry. Door was open. It's fine. We're just having breakfast. Help yourself if you're hungry.
01:25No, thanks. I just came to ask if home farms were open for business. I've had an inquiry about a wedding.
01:31Yeah, it definitely is.
01:32I'll let them know.
01:34Cool.
01:34How is business? Must be hard by yourself.
01:38Well, given the fact that my colleagues and very good friends died in a pointless accident, you're sharp, yeah.
01:44And I've just had to go to Scotland, so I'm behind on everything and it's beyond stressful.
01:48That's not good for you, though, Belle.
01:50Yeah, I know. As my family keep telling me.
01:53Anyway, I'll hold you up and I'll let you know about the booking.
01:55She's struggling. We should protect our interest.
02:04What do you mean?
02:05The revenue on this place.
02:08We're still take of Al's number one venue, right?
02:11Let's cut out the middlemen. Sell ourselves direct.
02:14Oh, way to make ourselves popular, part two.
02:17There's no room for emotion in business.
02:19Which is why you've got loads of money and no mates to spend it on.
02:23Harsh.
02:24Anyway, I've got a better idea.
02:34Are you all right doing that?
02:37Perfectly, thank you.
02:39I reckon it's a two-person job.
02:42I'm more than capable.
02:44Why are you patronising me?
02:46Listen, if I was turning 80 next week,
02:49I'd be sat in the salon drinking some fizz with a blue rinse on my hair.
02:55Oh, right. Well, not my colour.
02:58All I'm saying is, it's OK to slow down.
03:02And I'd be saying that even if you didn't have Parkinson's.
03:05Although, you do seem a little creakier lately.
03:10I'm just double-checking. You haven't been taking your meds.
03:13Yes, I've been taking my medication at the appointed hour,
03:17as I do every day without your monitoring.
03:21OK.
03:23Haven't you got a stop-take to do?
03:28I'm going.
03:30All right.
03:30I'm watching you.
03:34Just reminding you.
03:36You can trust me.
03:38I think I've proved that by now.
03:57Vic!
03:58Vic!
03:59Hey, have you heard anything from John yet?
04:02Oh, they've got off-grid.
04:03Where?
04:04In a cave, on an iceberg?
04:05I mean, what's that even mean?
04:06But why are you so bothered?
04:07Can't we just leave them in peace?
04:09I'm just doing the concerned mum thing, you know,
04:12just making sure that they got to wherever.
04:14Well, I assume so.
04:16I haven't even thought about getting in touch with them.
04:17I've been trying to request a prison visit online.
04:21Oh, right.
04:21So you're in contact with Robert, then?
04:23That's the idea.
04:24And he's going to stay away from Aaron?
04:26I don't know.
04:27He's not told me anything over the past six years,
04:28so I doubt he's going to start now.
04:30But he's my brother.
04:33Yeah.
04:34Anyway, if I hear from the happy couple,
04:36you'll be the first to know.
04:38Hey!
04:41He's still busy with the crime scene.
04:43Forensics are I'm keeping the site secure.
04:46Look, I know you can't tell me anything,
04:47but everyone's shocked.
04:49You know, thinking we could have stopped it, you know?
04:52How's that, then?
04:53Well, if someone's taken their own life.
04:56I'm only presuming, you know.
04:59Oh, gosh.
05:00You mean...
05:01I mean it's unlikely to impossible,
05:03but I can't give you the facts,
05:04even if I had them.
05:06They've been underwater a few months.
05:08You didn't hear that from me?
05:10It's a tragedy.
05:11That's what it is.
05:12If you hear about the booking,
05:26I'm not...
05:27Because I've not even emailed them yet,
05:28and they had other options,
05:29so it could be enough.
05:30It's fine, it doesn't matter.
05:31It's not important.
05:32What?
05:33I mean, it is important,
05:35but what I'm going to suggest
05:37is going to make all of this so much easier.
05:40All of what?
05:40Using Home Farm.
05:42Look, you're stressing out
05:43about running a business on your own,
05:45so why don't I become your new business partner?
05:50You?
05:51Yeah.
05:52Look, I've got loads of experience
05:54working with Kim,
05:55managing clients and suppliers,
05:57and a budget that is way bigger than yours.
05:59I've only just got this business.
06:01Do you really think I'm going to let Home Farm do a takeover?
06:03Not Home Farm.
06:04Me.
06:05And I never said anything about a takeover.
06:07After Joe's part in the limo crash,
06:09are you out of your mind?
06:10This has nothing to do with Joe.
06:12I'm not going to do that
06:13to Layla and Susie's memory.
06:15Look, Belle,
06:16I'm just asking for me.
06:18It's...
06:18There's no angle on this, okay?
06:22I don't want to rely on Kim for a job,
06:24and I don't want people thinking
06:25I'm having handouts
06:26from my rich boyfriend.
06:27Oh, so you're not getting money from Joe, then?
06:40Who are you getting the money from?
06:41Are you getting in on your talent alone?
06:43No, of course not.
06:44I'm sorry, Dawn, but...
06:46Look,
06:47I'm passionate.
06:48I'm hardworking.
06:50I learn super fast.
06:51I'm good with people.
06:52Why would you turn that down?
06:54Because of my personal life choices.
06:56What happened to female solidarity?
07:00No money from Joe, ever.
07:02I'd want that I'm right in.
07:04And I need to be able to trust you.
07:06And I don't know if I can.
07:07Hey.
07:13Vic knows nothing.
07:15But I bumped into swirling,
07:17and the body's not recent.
07:19He said that?
07:20Yeah.
07:21I assumed that somebody had thrown themselves in,
07:23and he said it was unlikely to impossible.
07:26Whatever that means.
07:27Well, you put a body in the water,
07:28you need to wet down.
07:30So the police know it's a murder?
07:33So it's Anthony.
07:34So that's it, then.
07:36You didn't kill him?
07:37Accessory.
07:37They'll find my DNA.
07:39Yeah.
07:39And Aaron's, and John's, and Caleb's.
07:41And his injuries from the beating.
07:43Hang on.
07:43His body was in the water for months.
07:45There won't be much of him left.
07:46Certainly not from any of us.
07:47There could be.
07:48Forensic evidence on the fabrics and the fibres.
07:50I've been searching on the internet.
07:54It's a murder.
07:55The police have kept Anthony's missing person case open.
07:59They'll go back and investigate everything.
08:00But they still need evidence.
08:02So let's just wait.
08:04They'll come for me.
08:04You know they will.
08:06It's better this way.
08:10Ruby, no.
08:12I'm going to confess.
08:13It's the only way to end this.
08:14Is this your private wagging off school spot, or can anyone join?
08:25You can join.
08:27And I'm not wagging off.
08:28I was going to say.
08:30You're making it a bit obvious.
08:35I had an exam.
08:37Right.
08:37Yeah.
08:38Of course you did.
08:39And how did it go?
08:42Oh, shut up, Ross.
08:44And tell her about your GCSEs.
08:46What did I get again?
08:47Um, I've got art and religious studies.
08:52And look at me now.
08:55I haven't seen you for a while.
08:57Busy boy.
08:59I heard about your brother showing up.
09:02Oh God, you haven't fallen out with him already, have you?
09:04Er, what do you mean, already?
09:07So you have.
09:09Anyway, what are you swatting up on?
09:11If it's one of my specialist subjects, I am here to help.
09:14Er, science.
09:16Okay.
09:17Er, what is this in chemistry chat?
09:24H2O.
09:26Oh, the girl's a genius.
09:29If you actually want to help, then you can use my revision guide.
09:40That leg is cursed, I swear.
09:45Why?
09:46They've found a body.
09:47It's all over the news.
09:49What?
09:50And what's happened here?
09:51Oh, just a load of tints.
09:55Don't fuss.
09:56I knew moving those boxes would be too much for you.
09:59No, it's not too much.
10:02The packing was abysmal.
10:03The bottom fell out of the box.
10:07So, why are you sitting there, then?
10:09Have you hurt yourself?
10:10No.
10:12I was, er, er, busy emailing the, er, the suppliers to complain.
10:17And now I've got to clear up the mess that they've created.
10:20So, anyway, you shut off.
10:24What?
10:25Well, it's, er, your afternoon off, I believe.
10:29Er, not for another hour?
10:31Yeah, well, I'm, er, letting you go an hour early.
10:35Oh, you're definitely not yourself, then.
10:37Are you sure I can't just help you clear up?
10:39No, it's not necessary.
10:40Why do you have to challenge every word that I utter?
10:44I was going to do it before, when we thought Steph might spill to her therapist.
10:51Right, just calm down, OK?
10:54It's like Cain said, the first thing that'll happen is the police will come round and notify.
10:58And then what?
10:58They'll start with immediate family and work their way out.
11:01The scrapyard, the garage.
11:02We'll handle it.
11:03We'll speak to the others.
11:04Or I confess.
11:06You'll get a life sentence.
11:07Do you know what that means?
11:08I will tell them what my dad did to me.
11:11I'll say he attacked me to stop me going to the police, and I killed him in self-defence.
11:14That's still manslaughter.
11:15And then I put his body in the water.
11:16No, right, listen to me.
11:19You are not being punished for what he did to you.
11:21Where's the justice in that?
11:23We don't have another option.
11:25There's always options.
11:28If we're not here, the police can't do anything.
11:31Where would we go?
11:32We can't go to Nicky's.
11:33We're not dragging him into this.
11:35We're going on the run.
11:38Go on the run to Ireland.
11:56That's not an actual suggestion.
11:58If he keeps you out of prison.
12:00What about Steph?
12:02Well, I can't see her coping with police questioning.
12:05It's a whole different ballgame to a therapy session.
12:08She'll have to come with us.
12:10No.
12:11This is insane.
12:12Why would you ruin your lives as well?
12:13I will hand myself into the police.
12:15I will go to prison if I have to.
12:16I am stronger than you think.
12:18Well, I'm not.
12:19Okay?
12:20My life is worth nothing if you're not in it.
12:23So that's not an option.
12:25Caleb.
12:25Whatever happens, we are in it together.
12:28Right.
12:29You said that I saved you.
12:32Well, I will keep on saving you until the day that I die.
12:37I can't let you go.
12:39So we're not leaving this room.
12:41So we've made a plan.
12:45It's not my decision.
12:47But if this was me and Moira, I'd be saying the same.
12:50Go to Ireland as actual fugitives for the rest of our lives.
12:54Okay, wait, wait, wait.
12:56The forensics don't actually have any evidence yet, do they?
13:00But even if they did, right?
13:01He's your dad.
13:03You're bound to have physical contact.
13:04Right.
13:05So who killed him then?
13:07Who put him in the lake?
13:08It comes back to us every single time.
13:11Cain's already been questioned.
13:12He'd be the first one going down.
13:14Which is why I'm keeping you all out of it.
13:16You will keep us out of it if you do it my way.
13:19Look, I hate to rush you, but if we are doing this,
13:21we need all the time we can get.
13:26Jess?
13:27I don't want you to go either.
13:30But if it's that or prison visiting for the next 20 years,
13:36it looks like I'm going to have a choice.
13:44Hiya.
13:46What's going on?
13:47One moment.
13:49Why are you limping?
13:50Uh, I'm not.
13:51Oh, right.
13:52You're just practicing your long John Silver.
13:55Where's the auditions?
13:55I'll go.
13:58Just had a little accident, that's all.
14:00Oh.
14:01Is that according to you or the doctor?
14:03No, I didn't go to the doctor.
14:05Of course you didn't.
14:05Well, in that case, you need to rest.
14:07Put that up and get some frozen peas on it.
14:09Yes, I realise what's to be done.
14:10Right.
14:12You promise?
14:13Yeah.
14:14Yeah.
14:14I just said so, didn't I?
14:17Right.
14:17Well, I'll be collecting you from work as well.
14:19No arguments.
14:20I'll come and pick you up on me, mate, at the depot, OK?
14:22Oh.
14:23Right.
14:24Well, I'll left you, insist.
14:26Yeah.
14:26Where's Tracey?
14:28Why are you on your own?
14:29Er, afternoon off.
14:31Well, then you need more help.
14:33You nearly ate me, man.
14:34Excuse me?
14:36What does that mean?
14:38I still have all my mental faculties about me.
14:40Right, well, you're not going to be able to log stock around with them, are you?
14:44Unless, unless you can move objects with your mind.
14:49Don't be so facetious.
14:51Oh, well, don't be silly, Divian.
14:53Just admit that you're slowing down.
14:54How dare you speak to me like that?
14:59I don't want a lift from you or anything else.
15:02Eric.
15:03No.
15:04You either speak to me with respect or you will start looking around for another home.
15:14Back to homeostasis.
15:16I don't even know what that is.
15:19Homeostasis.
15:19Where have you gone?
15:20Ross, don't bother.
15:22I've missed too much school, all right?
15:23I don't understand any of it.
15:24You've got this.
15:26You're dead brainy, kiddo.
15:27You can catch up if you put your mind to it.
15:30You want me to turn it into a rap song so it's easier to remember?
15:32A rap?
15:34Can I put that on TikTok?
15:35Mm-hmm.
15:35See?
15:36That is how much I would sacrifice my image for you.
15:39What image?
15:43Look, I know you've had a really tough year, but this is your chance to turn things around.
15:49By stuffing my brain with pointless facts that I'm never going to have any use for.
15:53No.
15:54No.
15:54Listen.
15:54Listen.
15:54When you've lived on the streets, all that matters is food and warmth and it just, I just, it just feels, I don't know.
16:05But you're doing it.
16:06You're sitting your exams and that is amazing.
16:09Yeah, only because nobody's asked me what I want.
16:16Aaron, it's me.
16:18Again.
16:19Look, there's been a development.
16:21Can you call me back, please?
16:24It's urgent.
16:27Right, so this, erm, mystic blog, can I trust him?
16:32Wouldn't send you otherwise.
16:34What about money?
16:36You're going to need cash so you don't leave a trail, but I can sort you out with that.
16:40Passports?
16:41Already on it.
16:42And I can fix you up with some false number plates.
16:45It's lucky you've done this before, isn't it?
16:47You wouldn't believe how many times.
16:49Right, I suppose, er, I suppose we should get packing.
16:57Ruby.
17:00Steph's still at her friend.
17:02Shall I go and get her?
17:03No, she's due back tomorrow.
17:05Let's get sorted here first.
17:08I'm just constantly in awe of how much you're prepared to sacrifice for me.
17:14It's not a sacrifice.
17:17Not as long as you're with me.
17:19And then there's the Rose Arch, which is screaming, bridal photo shoot.
17:26What Rose Arch?
17:27See, unless you've stomped the grounds trying to get a baby to sleep, you miss all these gems.
17:31Right, Steph, I'll want to the website.
17:33I didn't know Belle was staying for the evening.
17:35Ah, yeah.
17:37Allow me to introduce my new business partner.
17:41I managed to convince Belle that we'd make a great team.
17:43Oh.
17:44And what about your job here?
17:47Well, that's one you created for me.
17:49It's not quite the same.
17:51Okay, but...
17:52All you need to do is say congratulations.
17:55Congratulations.
17:57Belle, can I get you a drink?
17:59No, thanks.
18:00This is work, not sir, Sean.
18:02Start tomorrow?
18:04Amazing.
18:04Hmm.
18:11Sorry that my reaction was a little bit underwhelming.
18:14Just a bit surprised.
18:16Why?
18:17Well, you're taking on more stress.
18:19I thought you were fine as you were.
18:21Do I say this to you about your business deals?
18:25So, this arrangement with Belle.
18:28You're going to need a significant stake to get leverage.
18:33I can help with that.
18:35You mean you give me money?
18:37It could be a loan.
18:39I'm interested in your future venture.
18:42Where else are you going to get it?
18:44I don't know yet.
18:45You're not going to be silly, are you?
18:46You're not going to turn this into a thing.
18:48Belle doesn't want your money.
18:50She doesn't need to know.
18:54Cash.
18:55Not a phone.
18:56Cars are the guys.
18:57I'll text you on the passport already.
18:59Hey.
18:59Hey.
19:01You have your bath?
19:03Hey.
19:04You should have chucked us out before now.
19:06You've got a big day tomorrow.
19:09Okay, then.
