00:30I didn't expect to see you this morning.
00:37I thought you'd be busy sweating out Nate's memorial.
00:40Yeah, I just wanted to, er, check in on our Sarah.
00:44Yeah, she's still in bed resting.
00:46Finally taking the doctor's orders.
00:49What were you thinking yesterday?
00:52You know this isn't the answer.
00:53Oh, don't start, Cain.
00:55You saw how upset Sarah was when we told her that the surrogacy wouldn't touch her.
00:59What are you doing?
01:00You've been up all night looking at the same thing.
01:06Because of what happened with you and Mackenzie, you're more likely to lose a baby.
01:11Admittedly, it's not that simple.
01:12Well, at your age, the chances of perpetual birth, miscarriage, stillbirth...
01:16Yeah, all right!
01:17Well, what's Mackenzie said about it?
01:20You haven't told him, have you?
01:22I haven't had a chance to yet, okay?
01:23He was out at the crack of dawn this morning.
01:25He's got to go and cover for Moira.
01:26Or is it because you know this whole thing's insane?
01:29And now we're going to have to break Sarah's heart all over again?
01:31Well, we wouldn't have had to if you'd not mentioned surrogacy in the first place.
01:34I've heard your voice and I just wanted to say that I'm sorry I'm not feeling up for today.
01:42It's fine.
01:43You need to rest.
01:45I hope it goes all right.
01:46Yeah, so do I.
01:49Go on, you get going.
01:50I'll see you over at the pub in a minute.
01:51Right, you.
01:57Put your feet up.
01:57I'll put the kettle on.
01:59I, um, I heard what you were talking about.
02:02Have you changed your mind about being my surrogate?
02:04Well, how did that go?
02:15I told her all the risks that you'd looked up, but I don't think any of it went in.
02:20Well, I'll try talking to her again in a couple of days.
02:23But let's concentrate and say goodbye to Nate now, yeah?
02:27All right.
02:28I just wondered if you wanted a hand set it up.
02:30If you don't mind.
02:31Well, I'm actually thinking about it, it's not going to take two of us to set up, is it?
02:35Why don't you go and talk to Tracey?
02:37About what?
02:39Nothing.
02:40If there's anyone that's going to be able to talk around to letting us go to the funeral tomorrow, it's him.
02:44She likes him.
02:47Couldn't make things any worse.
02:50Do what you like.
02:51I need to go.
02:54I think that was it, yeah?
02:55Just do what you can.
02:56We're not expecting miracles, but we do appreciate you trying.
03:01We're not expecting you to be home.
03:12Well, we had a meeting arranged about the solar investment.
03:16Oh, it must have slipped my mind.
03:19Can we rearrange?
03:20Not on my account, surely.
03:23Well, Kim usually likes to have her business affairs in private.
03:27It can wait, can't it?
03:29I mean, the offer's not going to disappear in the time it takes to eat lunch.
03:33And Eddie's offered to cook again.
03:36Oh.
03:37Well, breakfast yesterday, lunch today.
03:40How nice of you.
03:40They do say the key to a woman's heart is through her stomach.
03:44Indeed.
03:48Aaron asked me to have a word about letting Cain and the family come to the funeral.
03:52Are you being serious?
03:54How many more people am I going to have to say this to?
03:57There's not a chance in hell.
03:58That monster killed Nate.
04:00Tracy, none of us know what happened.
04:02We might never even...
04:02Okay, okay, I'm sorry, alright, but...
04:07I had to ask.
04:11Look, I know this is probably weird for you, because the Dingles are your family now, but...
04:17You were a good friend tonight, and you have been for me, so...
04:23I don't mind you coming tomorrow.
04:30Oh, hey.
04:31Didn't expect to see you here.
04:32Hey, I was, er...
04:33I was just going.
04:37Look after her, yeah.
04:42You okay?
04:44Trace, has something happened?
04:46Oh, just the Dingles trying to force their way back in tomorrow.
04:50It's not John's fault, he's just stuck in the middle.
04:53Right, er, this came for you.
04:56I ran into the posty.
04:59Look, don't let them get to you.
05:01You've got more than enough to be worrying about right now.
05:11Everything all right?
05:13Er, yeah.
05:15It's a life insurance policy.
05:18Nate must have taken it out.
05:19I've been looking up, you know, and most agencies, they wouldn't even consider taking on someone your age.
05:27They even call it advanced maternal age.
05:29Gosh, a lot of words for someone past my best.
05:31Hang on, does that mean to say you've been looking online?
05:34Were you thinking of saying yes?
05:37Well, yeah, maybe.
05:38But I mean, there's just so many complications that come with it.
05:42No, forget that.
05:43Sarah, gun to your head.
05:45Would you want me to try?
05:47Well, I mean, all my other options are just running out one after another.
05:51And with you, I'd get to be part of the whole pregnancy, wouldn't I?
05:54And when the time comes and the baby arrives, I'd know you'd never change your mind about handing them over.
06:00I'd better go.
06:01I don't want to be late.
06:02I need to get to the pub.
06:03We can talk about this later if you want.
06:05About what you want to do.
06:06Right, look, Grant.
06:07I don't want you doing anything that you're not comfortable with.
06:09So can we stop talking about this like it's my decision because it's not?
06:12It's yours.
06:13It's yours.
06:14I'll see you later.
06:15See ya.
06:16You ready?
06:17I think most people are here now.
06:18Yeah.
06:19I always knew it was never going to be easy.
06:36But I'll help you get through it.
06:39Same as you did for me.
06:42Thanks, Ben.
06:46Hey, Lydia.
06:47How's your mind?
06:48Oh, a bit brighter.
06:49Thanks for asking.
06:50Any luck?
06:51Oh, sorry.
06:55Thanks for coming.
07:00I know I would have meant a lot to him.
07:03We won't be anywhere else, will we?
07:08Where's Sammy?
07:09He'll be here in a sec.
07:10And next mates.
07:11They should be here.
07:12I don't think all of them could get a couple of days off work so they're waiting for the
07:15funeral.
07:16Sorry.
07:17Running a bit behind.
07:18Looks good though, right?
07:19Yeah, I guess.
07:20I've got it.
07:21Got it.
07:22Got what?
07:23The drum.
07:24Why have you got that?
07:25It's tradition, innit?
07:26The procession.
07:27Yeah, but we haven't even got his body here so we can't do any of that stuff.
07:40But what should we do then, Cain?
07:42You just tell us.
07:43You're saying it like I should have a clue.
07:45We should be sending my son off here and all we've got are some photos and microwave
07:51food.
07:52I made them.
07:53Fresh.
07:54I'm really sorry, Cain.
07:55I just feel like this is all my fault.
07:57And if I hadn't made it worse for Tracey then maybe she would have changed her mind and
08:01let you go tomorrow.
08:02No.
08:03It's not your fault.
08:04It's hers.
08:10I've got to say this is an excellent choice.
08:13It pairs perfectly.
08:15Honestly, Eddie, where did you learn to cook like this?
08:18Kim?
08:21You ready?
08:22Excuse me, we were just in the middle of a conversation.
08:25Do we really have to do this now?
08:27Er, well I'm afraid it can't really wait.
08:30There's lots of other investors circling, so.
08:33Alright, hand it over.
08:37Solar, wasn't it?
08:40Big money in that.
08:45You know what?
08:46On second read this is all sounding rather dry.
08:51Er, well it's, erm, it's an investment.
08:53So the fun usually, you know, comes after.
08:56You know that?
08:57I do.
08:58But there's a personal project of mine that I've recently kicked into gear that I think we should be focusing on.
09:06Hear the man out, Kim.
09:07Sounds like he's put a lot of work into it.
09:09Er, not to be rude, Eddie, but, erm, this isn't any of your business.
09:15Look, er, Kim.
09:16This conversation's over, Jo.
09:19If you don't mind, we were just about to have dessert.
09:23All clear.
09:28All clear.
09:39Gosh, you weren't joking when you said I hadn't missed much.
09:42It's what we meant to do, just sit here.
09:43Ah, what else can we do?
09:44I was hoping today was gonna help.
09:47I think we all were.
09:48Can you have a word?
09:50Yeah.
09:51Look, erm, I know I wasn't exactly Nate's favourite person, but I think he deserves better than this.
10:03Yeah.
10:04Obviously.
10:06Right, I might not technically be a dingle, but I understand what all your traditions mean to you.
10:10I saw what you did for your dad.
10:12Now, it must be hard, not being able to do the same thing for your son.
10:16Can't imagine it.
10:18But there is still one tradition left, isn't there?
10:22I mean, we're having a bar.
10:24So what do you say?
10:26We don't need him to be here to raise a toast to him, do we?
10:33Go on, then.
10:35Chas.
10:36Line him up, will ya?
10:37Yeah, I'm on it.
10:38Well, love, get your playlist on.
10:41Just, er, take it easy, yeah?
10:42It's gonna be a long day.
10:44Do you remember that time when Nate and Faith robbed that house?
10:47What?
10:48It's not how it sounds.
10:49No.
10:50She'd left some pictures of me and Cain inside.
10:51I'll never understand why she didn't just ask for him back.
10:54You should have seen Nate's face when he thought she was gonna get nicked.
10:58It's not like it would have been for the first time.
11:01It's in any sense, then?
11:03You really wanna do this now?
11:04Just take your drink, please.
11:06So, sometimes, on a Friday, we used to bunk off early from farm.
11:11Excuse me?
11:13Sorry.
11:15Go on.
11:16We go fishing up the river.
11:18And I'm kidding you not, this one time, Nate caught a fish that were literally like...
11:23Oh!
11:26Oh, Cain, I'm sorry.
11:31Careful, Sam.
11:33Might be your funeral next.
11:37Mate!
11:41Having a good knees up, are we?
11:44And here's me thinking it would be a sombre affair.
11:46Seeing as we're burying my son tomorrow.
12:06Cara, I didn't know Cain invited you.
12:08He didn't.
12:10I'm here for the funeral.
12:13What is all this?
12:15It's a memorial.
12:17Because we've been banned from going tomorrow.
12:19Son.
12:24You've been banned from your own son's funeral.
12:29How much you had to drink?
12:30He's not even had his pint yet.
12:31Don't give me that.
12:34He reeks of the stuff.
12:36Do you know who you remind me of?
12:39Shadrach.
12:41And he wasn't shy with his fists either, was he?
12:44That's right.
12:46I know exactly what you did to Nate the last time anyone saw him.
12:50The police told me.
12:52Cain feels awful about that, Cara.
12:54Don't you start!
12:56Because I know exactly why he did it!
12:59Moira was sick, it wasn't...
13:00What?
13:02Like the first time?
13:04How many excuses can a woman use for dropping her knickers?
13:07Yeah, alright. Take it easy. Yeah.
13:09Who even are you?
13:11I'm Cain's brother, Caleb.
13:16That's right, you're the one that broke up my son's marriage.
13:19Is that right?
13:25You are exactly what everyone warned me you were.
13:28A violent thug.
13:30And I just wish that Nate had never found you!
13:34I wish he'd never come in.
13:36Yeah, well that makes two of us.
13:38You got my message then?
13:53I told you not to do that.
13:56If someone had seen...
13:57It's only a smart boy like you hasn't got his phone on lockdown.
14:01I tried.
14:02You saw me.
14:04Kim is no fool.
14:06If you hadn't got in the way...
14:07Shame I couldn't trust you.
14:09Why can't you just take the money you already have and quit while you're ahead?
14:13If she finds out what you're up to...
14:15We?
14:17Fine.
14:18What we're up to, then she will never let you get away with it.
14:21You're getting an easy escape here.
14:23You might have a point.
14:26I looked into her and there are some stories.
14:31Are you seriously afraid of this woman?
14:34Course not.
14:36Okay, fine.
14:38Look, today might not have gone to plan but there's always options.
14:43Like what?
14:48What is this?
14:49Enough to take down a bull.
14:51But please do be careful with the dosage.
14:55You want me to drug her?
14:57It worked on you, didn't it?
14:59Just make her a mobile and then do whatever it is you need to do until she's ready to transfer the cash.
15:06I can't.
15:08She will kill me.
15:09Perhaps.
15:11Or perhaps you'll do the same as me and Sean here and be out of the country before she even comes round.
15:20Please don't make me bring up that pretty little thing you called a girlfriend again.
15:24And all those kids.
15:26Do you think this looks okay?
15:29It looks lovely.
15:33Shouldn't be having to do this.
15:36Dress a four-year-old for a dad's funeral.
15:39She shouldn't be having to do it.
15:44Do you think I'm doing the right thing, taking her?
15:49I don't think there is a right or wrong here.
15:53It's whatever you think's best.
15:56I'll get it.
15:57I'll get it.
16:03Hi.
16:04It is alright if you come in.
16:09Cara.
16:11I didn't know you were coming today.
16:13I'll give you some privacy.
16:15I suppose we've got a lot to talk about.
16:21It just didn't feel right doing it on the phone.
16:24Cara.
16:26I'm so sorry.
16:29I swear I did not hurt Nate.
16:36Okay?
16:37I wouldn't.
16:38I could never.
16:39I don't know why everyone thinks it's me, but...
16:41Come here.
16:43I never said you did.
16:44But the police think I did it and no one will believe me.
16:48I do, sweetheart.
16:50I know I didn't approve of how things ended with you two, but not for a second.
16:54Did I ever think that you would hurt him like that?
17:04Hey, you're back early. How was it?
17:07It could not have gone worse.
17:10Nate's mum rocked up.
17:12Is Grumpy okay?
17:13Not really, no.
17:14It just gets you down, doesn't it?
17:15Life.
17:17One misery after another.
17:19Nothing you can do to stop it.
17:23But then that did get me thinking.
17:26If there's an opportunity for me to...
17:29bring a ray of sunshine into the world, then...
17:32it's an opportunity I can't really pass by.
17:35Are you serious?
17:36You wanna do it?
17:39I mean, we're gonna have to see how it goes.
17:40The clinics might say no.
17:43Or a better candidate might come along, but...
17:45I don't know, why don't I just go and get one of those...
17:48uterus, M.O.T. things, or whatever they call them.
17:51And we could take it from there.
17:53Thank you, Gran.
17:55Oh.
17:57Do you just think?
17:59Might be great, Granny, soon.
18:03It's nice to see you again.
18:05I just wish it was under different circumstances.
18:07Who, likewise?
18:10Have you got somewhere to stop tonight?
18:12You're more than welcome to stay here.
18:14Oh, thanks.
18:15I was looking at the B&B next to the pub, but...
18:17I don't wanna run into Kane again.
18:20You've already seen him?
18:22I'll get it.
18:23They're over there right now having a right, old jolly.
18:26I don't blame you for him banning him for coming tomorrow.
18:28I'm not sure she'll wanna see...
18:29I just want a quick word.
18:32I don't know what to do.
18:34I just wanna speak to Carrie.
18:38Look, I know we don't know each other proper, but...
18:43Well, will you just spit it out, Sam?
18:46It were my fault Kane stunk a booze.
18:48I spilled a pint on him.
18:50I don't care.
18:54We just wanted to remember, Nate.
18:56It's horrible, all this.
18:58We're just trying to focus on the good bits.
19:00We miss him.
19:02Look, Sam, I know you love your brother, but...
19:04at best he's the man that beat up my son and drove him into the arms of a killer.
19:08And the worst.
19:10He did it himself.
19:12Give up with that, will you?
19:14Look, I know Kane's got a temper, but he loves his family.
19:17He always does right by him.
19:20I mean, he helped you, didn't he? With money.
19:23Oh, don't throw that back in my face.
19:25Why not?
19:26Kane looked out for you, and he probably still would.
19:29Well, I'm not gonna need him any more.
19:31What's that mean?
19:34Nate took out a life insurance policy in case the worst happened,
19:38because that's what a good dad does.
19:40Can you just go now, please?
19:42We're grieving here. We don't need this.
19:43Cara doesn't know what she's talking about.
19:54And you're nothing like Shadrach.
19:56Well, you pretty much just said the same yourself.
19:58What?
20:00What about you having a drink?
20:02I just didn't want you getting drunk like the other week.
20:05I mean, anything could have happened if it wasn't for John.
20:09Listen, Kane, you and Nate, yeah?
20:11You had a fight, but it's nothing like how our dad used to be.
20:15And you must know that none of us believe you've had anything to do with his death.
20:18I mean, that's ridiculous.
20:20Hey, Sam, can you give us a minute?
20:23No, I just need to tell Kane something.
20:25What?
20:26She's getting a payout.
20:28For Nate.
20:30What, life insurance?
20:31Yeah.
20:32Has she mentioned this?
20:34No, not to any of us.
20:36Well, she's been hard up for ages, hasn't she?
20:38I mean, might have given her a reason.
20:41What, for killing him?
20:43Kane, hang on a minute.
20:47Look, thanks for what you said to her earlier, about trusting her.
20:51It's tearing her apart, people thinking the absolute worst.
20:54Hey, watch it.
20:58Oh, God.
21:00I'm sorry, John.
21:01Hey, what's up with him? Is he all right?
21:03Where is she? Is she in there?
21:05Oh, Kane, she doesn't want to talk to you.
21:08Tracy!
21:10Tracy!
21:11Whatever this is, just leave it.
21:12You've done enough damage.
21:14What's going on?
21:16When were you going to tell me about the life insurance?
21:18Erm, I wasn't, cos it's none of your business.
21:21Well, it is, if it's the reason you killed my son.
21:22We're not talking millions here. It's only a few grand and it's for Frankie.
21:26Oh, don't bother trying to explain it.
21:28It's got nothing to do with you, so keep out of it.
21:30Yeah, you've been saying that a lot lately, haven't you?
21:32Just come back, this isn't a good idea.
21:34Just leave the poor girl alone. None of us want you there tomorrow.
21:37Well, I'm coming to the funeral. We all are.
21:39Whether you look like it or not.
21:40Tomorrow afternoon over on ITV4, join Gary Imlach as we catch up with the riders at Stage 12.
