00:00Am I old for what?

00:16Nothing, nothing.

00:18Sorry, I thought I must be confused.

00:21Are you pregnant?

00:23Don't look at her. I'm asking the question, are you pregnant?

00:28Yeah.

00:30What is this?

00:35Did you get pregnant deliberately?

00:37No, no.

00:38It wasn't like that.

00:39Look, how could you even think that?

00:41I'm sorry. I'm sorry that I'm confused. Do you want to explain?

00:46Last week...

00:46I told her that I was pregnant.

00:48Right, and then what?

00:49I wanted to have an abortion, but then I spoke with Grandma

00:53and she made me realise that there's another way.

00:55She made you realise?

00:56I didn't make her realise anything.

00:57I just gave her another option, an option where everybody gets what they need.

01:02She's 15.

01:0516.

01:08This...

01:08This is madness.

01:10You said that she'll come round.

01:11Oh, she said that, did she?

01:12All right, Avani, can you just give us some space here, please?

01:14Look, come on.

01:15No, look, it's OK. Everything's going to be OK, all right?

01:17I promise you. Just... You don't worry. Go on.

01:19What?

01:26Are you for real?

01:27Look, it isn't what it looks like, all right?

01:29I... I didn't plan this, I promise you.

01:32So you decided...

01:33to adopt your dead husband's grandkids' baby...

01:38without consulting me?

01:40Eve, please, just sit down and let me explain.

01:43Explain?

01:45Manipulating me and steer me in the right direction,

01:47make me come to the conclusion you want me to come to...

01:48I know it's a shock and I know it seems mad.

01:50I know it does, but...

01:51I'm sorry, there is no explaining this away, all right?

01:54It's not OK.

01:57This is...

01:58It's...

01:59It's borderline abuse, is what it is!

02:02What?

02:05I have been treading so carefully,

02:08so gently,

02:10being considerate of everyone's feelings,

02:11and it has been very lonely,

02:13carrying this responsibility.

02:15Do you know what would have made it less lonely?

02:16Speaking to your wife!

02:20I finally suddenly decided that she wants to have a baby to give to us,

02:23like, hey, presto, it magically happened.

02:25Don't take that tone with me, Eve.

02:27All right?

02:28I made her see that there was another option,

02:30that having a baby could make everybody happier.

02:32Everybody.

02:33Yes, everybody.

02:34You said it yourself.

02:35You... you agreed.

02:36You would want a family with her.

02:37Yeah, I did.

02:38I did, didn't I?

02:39Amazing work, Sookie.

02:41Take her to bed, flatter her,

02:43make her believe that the reason she didn't want kids

02:45is because of her internalised homophobia.

02:47Tell her she's going to be an amazing mum.

02:49Hit her from every angle.

02:51Yeah, well played.

02:53Do you know what?

02:54I'm finding your sarcasm a little bit difficult to handle, Eve.

02:57This is exactly the tactic that Nish would use.

02:59How about straight-up anger?

03:01Because it was you!

03:02All right.

03:02You wanted this, not me!

03:04You!

03:05All right, this is scaring me!

03:11Tittle, babe.

03:13Tittle.

03:21Pachi!

03:23Boss, don't do that to me now, ma.

03:25Everything okay?

03:27Yeah, very okay.

03:28Is there a better smell in the world

03:32than the fragrance of freshly won

03:35wank looks?

03:37Hey, well, keep it to yourself.

03:38I just don't know until I need to know.

03:41Time to celebrate.

03:43You'll see, I'm on.

03:44So, you're the man of blame.

03:47Sorry?

03:48This festival?

03:49Celebrate the kids' exams?

03:51Yeah, I'm trying to pull these too expensive cards, all right?

03:54But Amy reckons that Denzel's got the go at it from you.

03:57What festival?

03:57Oh, don't tell me she's fibbing.

04:02It's her first time hearing of it, Jack.

04:04All right, I'm sorry.

04:06I have words.

04:11Denzel!

04:12What's this about me paying for some festival?

04:14You know, my hours have been cut, mate.

04:16I know.

04:17And I'm not going into debt

04:18so you can have some wild teen weekend

04:20while the rest of us live on pizza.

04:21Chill, all right?

04:23I deliberately didn't come to you.

04:24I knew you'd be like this.

04:26You're the last person I expect

04:27to make it rain right now.

04:28Kim, you're going to pay, aren't you?

04:30Yeah, no worries.

04:31Sal's lit.

04:31Yeah.

04:32You can't do that.

04:33Why not, Dad?

04:34Because if you're actually successful,

04:36you have savings.

04:39Denzel!

04:41Harry, you didn't mean that.

04:43Make it rain.

04:43Kids.

04:44You should have discussed it with me first.

04:48It's okay.

04:49I mean, you can pay me back when you get more work.

04:51Harry's fine.

04:52I've got it covered.

04:54I'm going for a job now, as it goes.

04:56Oh, really?

04:57I did think you look a bit sharp.

04:58Yeah.

04:59So what's the key?

05:00Bouncer.

05:01Harry's bar.

05:02Bouncer!

05:04Sorry, that didn't mean to come out so high-pitched.

05:06Bouncer!

05:07Yes, I love that for you.

05:09Really?

05:10Yeah!

05:11Yeah, I can see you find out the riffraffs,

05:13you know, coming home all riffed up.

05:15Do you know what I mean?

05:16Yeah, yeah.

05:17Now listen, you go get them tiger, yeah?

05:20Go on.

05:21Yeah!

05:26Bouncer.

05:26I'm going to call Lovani back in,

05:43tell her it's not going to happen.

05:44It's not fair enough to keep messing her about.

05:48I'm thinking about our own future and not ours.

05:53Suki!

05:53I don't know why I thought you'd understand.

06:23I don't know.

26:23Thank you,
