00:01Please tell me I'm still asleep and this is a rotten, stinking nightmare.

00:05If I find proof that you think you're Banks, I'm not gonna let it go.

00:09I-I-I saw Banks.

00:11Your son Bobby, he escaped from the secure unit last night.

00:15You here, partner?

00:16No.

00:17Thank you for letting me stay here.

00:19I told you, I'd do anything for an old friend.

00:21Take it out on me.

00:30I'll see you next time.

00:32I'll see you next time.

00:33Bye.

01:00Miss?

01:01Uh-uh.

01:02I need to talk to you about Bobby.

01:06Got some breakfast for you, boys.

01:18Dad, um...

01:19I'm sorry.

01:21Get up.

01:22I'm taking you straight to the hospital.

01:24Never listen, never listen to me.

01:26Never listen to me.

01:27Never listen to me.

01:28How many times do I have to tell you I've not heard from Bobby?

01:30I'm just gathering information.

01:31Yes, but you won't give any, will you?

01:33Come on now, you're stressing the lady out.

01:35Look, I just need some answers, that's all.

01:38Okay.

01:39There's been a sign of Bobby in the area.

01:41When?

01:42This morning.

01:43Dog walker thought you saw him by the woods.

01:46Mercedes, he's wanted for murder.

01:48It's not safe.

01:49My son is no threat to me.

01:52That's amazing.

01:53Thank you so much.

01:54Lucas!

01:55Lucas!

01:56I've got us a last minute appointment at the hospital, but we need to go right now.

02:02Hey, guys.

02:03Hey, Steve, I'm moving some stuff back into the dog.

02:05Do you want to give me a hand?

02:06Okay.

02:07I can't.

02:08I can't.

02:09I can't.

02:10I can't.

02:11I can't.

02:12I can't.

02:13I can't.

02:14I can't.

02:15I can't.

02:16I can't.

02:17I can't.

02:18I can't.

02:19I can't.

02:20I can't.

02:21Do you want to give me a hand?

02:22I can't.

02:23I promised Lucas I'd take him into town for some lunch.

02:25Wow.

02:26What happened to you?

02:27You two had another bus stop.

02:28Oh, don't.

02:29I got me foot caught in the sheet and then fell out of bed.

02:32It's no big deal.

02:33Okay.

02:34But you make sure you keep an eye on your dad, all right?

02:36Yeah, I will do.

02:40We need to get our skates on.

02:41Look, Dad.

02:42Please don't tell the doctor.

02:43I'll add it to you.

02:44I don't know what's wrong with me.

02:45And the sooner we get you checked over, the sooner we find out.

02:49Come on.

02:58Hello?

02:59Two patrol cars and air support searching where Bobby was spotted.

03:02And?

03:03There's no sign of him.

03:04He's disappeared.

03:05Look, Donny, you've gotta find him.

03:07We've tried but we think he's moved on.

03:09No, but you need to try harder.

03:11We'll keep in touch.

03:12Donny?

03:15Donny!

03:20You had one job.

03:22And you blew it.

03:24There's police everywhere.

03:26There's even a helicopter out looking for him.

03:28Right.

03:29Don't hurt me, okay?

03:30We just went for a war.

03:31Then where is he?

03:33I'm literally right here.

03:37Okay.

03:42Let's get these beautiful lavender plants tucked into their new home.

03:48I've had a breakthrough on the Banks case.

03:51You know that ballistics report that went missing?

03:54Just been emailed over to me.

03:55Rex admitted it, Donny.

03:56You need to move on.

03:58No, babe, but I've gotta find out if he really did.

04:00This is really serious, Dylan.

04:01I'm scared.

04:02Dylan!

04:03I'll handle it.

04:04Like I said, the CT scans come back all clear.

04:05It's good news.

04:06You haven't listened to a thing I've said.

04:07How can you tell me there's not wrong with him?

04:08He flew into a race last night and sat editing himself.

04:09He's only been acting out ever since he had the surgery.

04:10And I am right here.

04:11Is it the tumour?

04:12Is it some kind of after effect of the operation that's not showing up on the scan?

04:13This isn't my air of expertise, but from what you've told me,

04:30Luke's behaviour is probably an emotional response to trauma.

04:41and emotional response to trauma. Keep an eye on him, and if anything else occurs, bring

04:47him back in. But in the meantime, speaking to a mental health professional would be best.

04:52A shrink. Mental health support can help manage anxiety and depression, yes.

04:56I don't want to manage anything. I want it gone. It weren't there before. It just made

04:59me normal again. Lucas, I understand your frustration.

05:01You don't understand my frustration because you're saying there's nothing wrong with me.

05:03It's all in my head. Hey, we're doing everything we can to help.

05:06Well, he can't help us. How can you?

05:09Lucas.

05:11It'll be good to get out of Stace. I tell you, he's aged about ten years.

05:15Hey, get him booked into Marie's for the glow-up.

05:17Hmm. Don't get me started on this place.

05:20Hey, it's good to see another woman opening up an independent business.

05:23Yeah, but where did she get the money to buy her? That's what I'd like to know.

05:26Well, you are twisted.

05:27Yeah, well, there's only one business opening around here that matters, isn't it?

05:29It's the dog relaunch, and you are going to smash it.

05:31Oh, it's nice to hear the compliments.

05:33I mean it from the bottom of my twisted old heart.

05:36Hey, hey. I'll go.

05:41Hey. Are you alright?

05:43No. No, I'm not.

05:46There's been a sighting of Bobby.

05:49Oh.

05:50Is that it? Oh.

05:51Oh, come on. You can't expect me to sympathise with your son who murdered my sister.

05:54You think I want sympathy off a loser like you?

05:57I don't know, Mercedes. I don't know what it is you do on.

06:00But all I want is to make things work with Diane.

06:02Well, you failed her and your kids.

06:04Do you know what? You are pathetic.

06:06Dylan.

06:07Dylan, stop.

06:08Once my dad finds that ballistic report, he's going to realise that Rex didn't kill Banks,

06:21then he's going to put two and two together and realise it was one of us.

06:24I don't know that.

06:25We need to stop him then.

06:27What are you doing?

06:30I'm texting Frankie. We need to make a plan.

06:32No.

06:35Why? What do you mean? She's been through enough.

06:37We all have. We're not going to jail for this.

06:40We're not going to jail!

06:41I said I've got a plan and I'll stick to it. You have to trust me.

06:44Here, stop. Stop you freaking me out. What? What?

06:49Tell me.

06:52Vicky, you have no idea what I'm dealing with.

06:54What do you mean? We're all dealing with this.

06:57OK, you just, you need to tell me what you're going to do, OK?

07:02I don't know.

07:06I don't know.

07:08Dylan?

07:09Is everything OK?

07:13Right, listen.

07:14Whatever my dad finds in that report, we're going to stick together.

07:18OK?

07:21Don't do anything stupid.

07:24Lucas!

07:25Wait!

07:26What?

07:27Lucas.

07:28You heard what the doctor said. There are treatments and therapies, so you are going to get better.

07:45What are you trying to kid?

07:47I'm 18 years old, I don't even know who I am anymore.

07:51I hit you.

07:53You're my daddy.

07:56You only did that because I told you to do it, didn't I?

07:59None of this is you.

08:01You're just, you're acting out because of everything you've been through.

08:05Look at what Carter did to you.

08:07He tried to brainwash you.

08:08You ended up inside while I was in a coma.

08:10Dylan, he betrayed you with his sister and fathered baby James.

08:13He's just betrayed you again.

08:15Now he's a drug addict.

08:17You know, the one person who helped me come out.

08:19Who I would have trusted with my whole life.

08:22He's hurt me in so many ways, Dad.

08:24You do know that.

08:30You will meet someone else.

08:31I don't even know.

08:33I don't know what's my life line.

08:37I just want to go back to the way things were.

08:40You really love him, don't you?

08:49Hey.

08:51I know you're in a hole right now.

08:53But I am going to do everything I can to make this better.

08:57I'm going to make you better, Lucas.

09:00I promise.

09:04Go on.

09:06Let's get on.

09:16Tony wants me to nip into work.

09:18You go on and I'll catch you up.

09:28Steve, I can't do this anymore.

09:31I need to confess to killing Banks.

09:36Hey, I didn't think you were going to say that.

09:38How about you and Jack?

09:39I thought you two were forever.

09:41So did I.

09:42But our relationship's been getting stale for some time now.

09:44Just like these stale biscuits.

09:48Frankie!

09:49What?

09:52Sorry.

09:54It's just that Jacob's ignoring me because Grandad won't let me go and see him last night.

09:59Men never listen.

10:01Well, Jack doesn't anyway.

10:03You do know he's miserable.

10:05Well, you don't have to move out.

10:08I do.

10:10Because even though you've welcomed me with open arms, I still feel like a guest in your home.

10:17I don't even have any of my family pictures on the walls or records on the shelf.

10:24And I've always got to listen to his Frank Sinatra albums.

10:28Oh, Jack.

10:30He doesn't even know what music I like.

10:32He calls me his other half.

10:35But when we're together it doesn't feel like we're one.

10:38And it breaks my heart.

10:42It's...

10:43It's...

10:44If he doesn't even see me.

10:45Yeah, but surely you've got something worth fighting for.

10:49What if you're just honest with each other?

10:52Well...

10:53You've never been dishonest with me.

10:59Not that I've been dishonest with you, it's just that...

11:02Look...

11:04I have never quit on anything in my life and I'm not going to stop now.

11:11Well, please come home.

11:13And I promise I will work hard every day to make you the centre of my world again.

11:20I'll put your photos out in our home, your trinkets, your music.

11:25Aretha?

11:27Roberta Flack, Bonnie M.

11:30Bill.

11:33I know that was something.

11:36And I want to listen to them all again with you.

11:40Bill, please.

11:42Please, just give me one more chance.

11:49I was upset and angry the police couldn't find Bobby.

12:01I was going to let rip at somebody, that somebody just...

12:04...happened to be...

12:06...you.

12:08I'm sorry, okay?

12:10You said I failed my wife and kids.

12:12Which is rich coming from the Queen of Trainwreck relationships.

12:14I didn't come here to argue.

12:15Oh, yeah?

12:16What did you come here for?

12:18What, to throw yourself at me again?

12:20I am good for some underwhelming sex, thank you.

12:24It's funny, that.

12:25Because you sounded like you had a whale at the time.

12:27Yes, while I was faking.

12:28Well, so was I.

12:29Why are you avoiding me?

12:45What are you doing here?

12:47You said you wanted to hang out.

12:49Yeah, I know, but...

12:50But what?

12:52My dad was right, this is a bad idea.

12:55Wait, wait, wait, Franji, wait.

12:57I'm sorry, I didn't mean to bail on you last night.

12:58I called you a hundred times and I left messages.

13:01I didn't see them.

13:02I can see that you've seen them.

13:04Okay, I was busy.

13:06Besides, you're the one who bailed on me last night.

13:08Yeah, because my grandad and Pearl broke up.

13:10Huh?

13:12My grandad was in a mood and he wouldn't let me come and see you.

13:15Okay.

13:17Old people break up.

13:18Who knew?

13:20Well, she was sick of being taken for granted.

13:22I mean, he doesn't even know what music she's into.

13:24What, his own girlfriend?

13:25Oh, so you know what music I like?

13:27You're my girlfriend now.

13:29No, I...

13:31I just mean if I was.

13:33Erm...

13:36So you don't even know.

13:38Okay.

13:40What about this?

13:42You're an idiot.

13:43I'm joking.

13:44I was joking.

13:45Alright, alright.

13:46What about this?

13:58Donny, you said you were taking the afternoon off.

14:01I know, but this is important.

14:03More important than us spending time together as a family?

14:05It is. It's about the Banks case.

14:06I'll be back as soon as I can.

14:08Donny.

14:09I need everyone to sit down.

14:12I have something to tell you.

14:14Dylan.

14:16No, let me do this.

14:18I've done something.

14:21Something terrible.

14:23Dylan.

14:26You were exploited.

14:28Grace is the one who should feel ashamed, not you.

14:31No, this isn't about Grace.

14:33It's about me.

14:35So?

14:37What have you done?

14:39Hey.

14:40Go on, let's go outside.

14:41Get off me!

14:42Dylan, whatever this is about, you need to tell us right now.

14:44Steve?

14:46I erm...

14:48Dylan.

14:49He's got a drug problem.

14:51He went on a binge again the other night at our house and now Lucas walked in and he was cheating with some girl on the sofa.

14:56All because he was off his face.

15:01Dylan, is this true?

15:03He's admitted that was his rock bottom.

15:06And I've said to him, the only way you're gonna get through this is by talking.

15:09Yeah, talking to your family.

15:11Ignore everything else that I said.

15:14Lucas really needs you.

15:18But I can't do this, you have to.

15:20You have to ask every single person in this room...

15:22...for help.

15:23I'm addicted to drugs.

15:33And I need help.

15:37Dylan, Dylan.

15:39So?

15:40I'm sorry.

15:41I'm so sorry.

15:43It's okay.

15:45Right, I'm gonna get going.

15:49Hey Mercedes.

15:51Diane can't find out about this.

15:53She won't, okay?

15:55We both got what we wanted, nobody died.

15:57Look, I'm not gonna lie.

15:59After the divorce and a few months of madness with Marie, this is...

16:03It's fun.

16:04It's uncomplicated.

16:06But I would give anything to get my life with Diane back.

16:07Okay, well, why don't you do it then?

16:10It's like you said.

16:12I failed the people I love.

16:15I'm terrified I'm gonna mess up again.

16:17Look, for what it's worth, I think you're a good man and you are a great dad.

16:23Some dad.

16:25Row nearly took his own life, Diane turned to drink, I nearly lost her.

16:28You know, sometimes I do imagine we're back together.

16:31All the family round the table, Christmas dinner.

16:33Am I just chasing dreams?

16:37You can always make your dreams reality.

16:40Yeah?

16:41Commit to die.

16:43How can I do that when I'm bed hopping with you?

16:45Right, okay.

16:46This, this is no strings.

16:49Yeah?

16:50Think of it as comfort eating.

16:52Just sweatier and actually burn the calories.

16:54What, and I keep coming back for seconds?

16:58I hope things work out for you, yeah?

17:01You know where I am.

17:04My Mercedes.

17:06Thanks for not judging me.

17:09See ya.

17:15Oh, that's well cute!

17:16Right, let me see you then.

17:18Eh, you've done better.

17:20Grandad and Pearl have got back together.

17:25Oh, really?

17:26Yeah.

17:27That's good.

17:28Do you want to do something later?

17:29Yeah.

17:30If you don't leave me hanging again.

17:32I'll text you.

17:33Okay.

17:39Cheesy selfies?

17:40Really?

17:41I told you to stay inside.

17:42Why?

17:43What, in case Claire gives you another rollicking and you pee your pants?

17:46No.

17:47In case someone sees you?

17:48No one's gonna see me, miss.

17:49Go back inside!

17:50No!

17:51Go back inside!

17:52Go back inside!

17:53Go back inside!

17:54Jacob, Pearl's invited you for tea later.

17:57Aren't you Mercedes' kid?

18:00Jacob, what's going on?

18:08Steve!

18:09Hey!

18:10Why'd you do that?

18:12I was gonna confess.

18:15Do you realise how much I've just sacrificed for you?

18:20I've just given you your life back, Dylan.

18:22And you're not gonna tell anyone about Banks.

18:25And you're not going to prison.

18:29Yeah, and what about Rex?

18:32I thought you still loved him.

18:37I do love him.

18:38I know I was meant to visit him today, but...

18:41I love my son more.

18:44I know.

18:45But...

18:46No buts.

18:47Dylan.

18:48My son needs you to be his lifeline again, so tomorrow you're going straight to NA.

18:52You're gonna get sober, and you are gonna step up and be the partner that Lucas deserves.

18:59Otherwise, you can kiss goodbye to your freedom.

19:18Steve.

19:20I know a cop killer when I see one.

19:23Are you killing Banks?

19:25That was always a bit off for me.

19:29What are you trying to say?

19:31This is a ballistics report from the crime scene at Banks' murder.

19:36It turns out the gun you handed in wasn't the weapon used to kill him.

19:40Confirmed what I've been thinking of all along.

19:42You didn't kill him, did you, Rex?

19:51So why would you confess to a crime we didn't commit?

20:12Have you told...

20:26Whoa.
