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.
