What's happening,
cornflake head?

'Ey, we need to be
mates again, you know.

I've had to turn to
drugs to cope without ya.

Not funny.

I can't believe you got
me up early for this.

Oh, just a little bit
dirty. Oh, just...

Just a little bit more there.

Argh!

I can't.

One more, come on push.

Look, look at him.
He's a baby boy.

Congratulations.

A son. A son!

HE LAUGHS

Fancy some FIFA
after school later?

I just need to hide a few things
first so you can't steal them.

I'm joking.

Can you bring one of your
controllers, too, though?

I've lost one of mine.

THEY LAUGH

HE SPEAKS ARABIC

Didn't you pay for
his lunches last week?

Oh, he's still having problems

getting the right ID
for a bank account.

I don't wanna scare you, girl,

but you read about things
like this all the time.

Foreign men scamming
women for money.

What are you on about, girl?

Like me nan, who met that Adama
fella from Gambia on Facebook.

He moved here, they got married,

and then he divorced her so he
could take half of her life savings.

I mean, no offence to ya nan, girl,
but she was like 74, and he was 25.

It was pretty obvious
he wasn't with her

for her saggy tits
and pancake arse.

May she rest in peace.

Are you sure you can trust him?

He lied to you about
speaking English.

Oh, my God, girl,
are you jealous?

No, you were the one saying

it's weird you haven't
been to his house yet.

Yeah, well, yesterday, he
had me waiting on the corner,

and I could definitely just about
work out which house was his.

So there.

Wait on the corner?

Well, you're one to talk,
chasin' after that posh bell end.

I mean, it's getting a bit
embarrasin', to be honest.

He's not interested
in girls like you,

but he doesn't wanna tell you

because he doesn't
wanna look like a snob.

Oh, don't worry girl. I'm going.

You see, I've actually got
a meetin' with Netflix.

Yeah, they wanna do a documentary
on Ziad, The Libyan Swindler,

about how he manipulated a
stupid, naive girl from Liverpool,

for a fiver.

Oh, Nice 'n' Spicy
just edge it for me.

Aww, lad, if you're a Rib 'n'
Saucy type of guy, it's OK.

They're both two
absolute heavyweights.

My mum's just emailed me.

Oh, no. Have you lost the plot

cos I haven't been
around to keep you sane?

Before she died, she must
have scheduled emails for me.

What does it say?

"Hiya, son. Cancer must have
got me by now. Or did it?"

"Maybe I faked my death"

"and now live off-the-grid in
Alaska with an impressive beard."

She had a weird sense of humour.

"I know your dad's birthday
was always a tough day for us."

"So I wanna remind you of
the poem we wrote for him."

"The image is fading
of what it was like"

"when you would hold
me incredibly tight."

"But I'll give never forget
the feeling you gave"

"the feeling that
everything was all right."

"I'll keep going like
you're by my side.

"So, when I see you again,
and you ask me how it went,"

"I'll tell you it was fun, and
I achieved everything I dreamt."

"Love you, my son. Hope
those words are coming true."

Thanks for taking over.

But did you have to do it
with a mouth full of Nik Naks?

THEY LAUGH

Do you know where
your dad lives?

Do you wanna meet him?

No, I'm not arsed. I
did as a kid, though.

You can still make some
memories with your dad.

I'd do anything to make
some more with mine

even for one day,
one hour, one minute.

I wonder what your da's
favourite Nik Naks were.

I have a fading memory of
him eating Rib 'n' Saucy.

THEY LAUGH

Come 'ead, lad.

Where the fuck's all
this coming from, Reece?

Do you think I've
done a bad job?

It's just I was
speaking to Christopher,

and he wrote this poem to
his dad, before he died,

and... just gets ya
thinking, doesn't it?

So what? We can write a poem
to your dad if you want.

Er... 'I know this poem's
come out of the blue,

'but we've never needed
ya, so fuck you.'

See? Easy.

Ever since you were born, all I've
done is try and make you happy.

And now I feel like you're
tellin' me I haven't done enough.

No, Mum, that's not true at
all. You have been enough.

I am happy. I am.

Sorry, Mum. I didn't
mean to upset ya.

Are you sure you're
ready for this, Reece?

Yeah, Mum.

Suppose I've always
just pushed it away.

But it's always been
in the back of me head.

OK.

Well, I'm not ready.

But if you are, then I
suppose I need to be.

Your dad's name's Darren.

Disneyland Darren.

I know. Look, his mate said it was
cos he was always goin' on about

this trip he took to Disneyland.

Even when we were having
sex, he kept going on about

how it reminded him of
going down Splash Mountain.

I know. I know.

It was a one night stand, son.

After I found out I was
pregnant, I tried to find him.

I swear, I did, but...
he's not from round here.

He's from Manchester.
I'm sorry! I know!

I know! Oh, I tried
me best to find him.

No, son.

Once I realised I
couldn't find him,

I knew I had to
just focus on you.

And the day you were
born... I promised ya

that I'd be twice the
mum that you deserved,

to make up for the fact
that ye never had your dad.

And ye have been, Mum.

Come here. Come on.

I love you, too.

Ooh, I love you so much.
Me little gobshite.

Hiya, what are you up to?

Oh, I'm working on a
history project with Ruby.

Hey, did you hear about me dad's
acca comin' in at the weekend?

He won 2,000 quid.
It's crazy, eh?

Why'd you pick Ruby
to be your partner?

She sits by me in the class.

You wha'?

You haven't given him your
bank details, have ye?

Oh, I'm sure she'll use
the winnings to buy you

lunches and the PS5 you want.

Oh, and your dad defo could have
won more. He cashed out, the pussy.

He choked. PSG were
obvs gonna score.

Come on, Mia.

Nice one for findin' him, lad,
the Disneyland discussion forums.

You're a genius. This is it?

Well, let's not judge
him on where he lives.

He could still be a
really respectable guy.

Which one of you is Reece?

HE SOBS UNCONTROLLABLY

You're home.

Hey, do you know
what's strange, son?

I've been havin' a lot of
thoughts about your mum recently.

So, it's like a higher power's
trying to tell me summat.

A lot of those thoughts was
reaching into the wank bank.

But still... I know it
don't look like much, son.

But I've not been able to
work because of me disability.

I have a severely stubbed toe,

and the pain... radiates
through me legs.

But don't worry because I've got
big, big money coming my way.

Oh, yeah.

I'm always applying to
Pointless, Millionaire.

It's only a matter of
time before I win big.

I made it onto The
Chase once, son.

Well, I took the lower offer,
and I still got knocked out,

but I was very unlucky
with the questions.

Currently doing another application
for Pointless now, as we speak.

Oh, my God!

We should do one together
as a father-and-son team!

I'm all right, to be honest.

Fuckin' hell, me own
son fuckin' hates me.

Hey, he doesn't hate you.

He just needs a bit of
time to get to know you.

Oh, yeah... time.

And time's what we have
got, son. Nothing but time.

And I'm gonna spend
every single day

making up for the
time that we've lost.

Every... single... day.

Just you... and me... together.

I'm gonna get off. It-It
was nice to meet you.

Oh, really? Hey, do you
wanna go go-karting tomorrow?

I can take you swimming.
Wait, that's it? You're going?

See the state of him?
16 years for him?

I'd rather not know where I
came from, if I came from that.

I need the toilet before we go.

Oh, hurry up, before he asks
me to play catch or something.

Hey, son, do you know
how to ride a bike?

Because I could teach you.

I'll wait outside, lad.

THEY LAUGH Hey.

Do you wanna come to me mum's
birthday meal tomorrow night?

She really wants to meet you,

and we've got an extra
seat at the table.

Er... s-sure.

Last night, I was
looking online,

and I found a local support group
for family members of MS sufferers.

There's one tomorrow
night, actually.

What an incredibly thoughtful
gesture, Christopher.

It's great that me mental well-being
is clearly your top priority.

Great, so you meet my parents,

and then after, I'll go
your house and meet yours.

Erm, sure.

Friday night at Ziad's house.
No waiting on the corner.

I know it sounds daunting,

but I could come with
you, if that's OK?

Thanks, Christopher. I'd love to
go there tomorrow... together.

So, actually, er, Mia-Louise, I
finally opened the bank account.

So I have the money that
I owe you for the lunches.

Ziad, you don't have to
give me the money back,

but what a wonderful sign
of trust that you have done.

CLASS LAUGHS AND JEERS

I've got a surprise for you.

The fringe on it.

I've got one for you an' all.

JEERING LAUGHTER

For when I win it
big on me quiz shows.

Sir, have you met Reece's da?

Step away from the kids... now.

Don't worry about it. So,
wha'? It changes nothing.

Hm... Nothing. Chin up, lad.

THEY LAUGH

Nah, I can't do it.
That's your dad in there.

Your life is ruined.

I'm questioning
your whole identity.

Reece, Disneyland
Darren's not your dad.

If only, lad.

No, when we were there,

I went to bathroom so I
could get a hair sample.

I ordered a DNA test, and
I just got the results.

He's not your dad.

You did that for me,
lad? Nice one. But, erm

how did you get me
hair sample, though?

My bin still had
your pubes in it

from when you thought it was funny
to keep leaving them on my pillow.

THEY LAUGH

I can't believe it, son.

I was convinced he
was your dad cos...

Cos what, mum?

Cos... when I slept
with someone else

the next weekend,
we used protection.

Don't look at me like that!

Me nan had just died.

I was bladdered for three months,
out looking for distractions.

Which is why I admire you so much,
just processing all the emotions.

So, who is he, then?

And please don't say
Universal Studios Steve.

I didn't get his real name.

He went by Mr 997. I met
him in the Farmer's Arms.

Afterwards, I moved away.

I didn't get his phone number,
and... I never saw him again.

I'm sorry, son.

Fucking hell... Fucking hell.

Even DNA fucking hates me.

I'm absolutely devastated, son.

Brought this with me so
we could build it today.

Never gonna get the
chance now, am I?

You know, I bet your dad's
that bean head fella,

the lucky bastard.

Mr 997? Well

the next weekend, I went
back to your mum's house

with some flowers cos.

I was smitten, lads.

Anyway, I rang the doorbell,
and there was no answer.

So then I look through the
window, and that's when I see

this hook-nosed fella
with a massive bean head,

shaggin' your mum on the couch.

It was gutting! You know,
I saw him years later.

I was in Liverpool, and I
saw his face on a poster.

He was giving a talk
on one of his books.

I tell you what, lads, you
never forget a cum face.

Do you remember the
name of the book?

Nah, I was smashed off my tits.

But I think it was
something weird

about looking through
doors or windows

because I remember thinking...

"Has he written a book
all these years later"

"about me seeing his cum face?"

Mr 997!

Oh, my God. Look at this place.

I just wanna say thanks
for all your help.

And you know you said
about going down to Surrey

to see your dad's grave?

I'll come with ya.

We'll make a day out of
it, pull some posh birds.

Yeah, let's do it.

PHONE DINGS

Whoa, look at the
size of this place!

You're me dad.

Look at his awards.

That was my first-ever
published book.

It's a research study into NDEs.

Near death experiences?
Common, aren't they?

Like, 20% of people who come
close to death have them.

That's exactly right, and people
don't realise how common they are.

And please, help yourself
to Caramel Hobnobs,

my favourite biscuit to dunk.

The... The caramel
acts as a strengthener

so it doesn't break, ensuring a

sufficiently saturated biscuit.

Oh, my God, it's extraordinary.

It's extraordinary.

So... how's your mother?

Is she still debating?

What do you mean, debating?

She was captain of the opposing
debate team. That's how we met.

Camilla's arguments to why
water-heavy agricultural systems

should be illegal
really... blew me away.

Camilla? No!

We're talking about
Jodie. Don't you remember?

You were shagging
Jodie from behind.

And I was in the window
when I saw you cum.

What is it about us and
windows, eh? We're at it again.

So you're not Camilla's boy?

Hey, did you and Jodie
ever do that position

where she put her
legs like that...?

All right.

You're sick. Get out!

So you didn't sleep
with Jodie 17 years ago?

You met her at the
Farmer's Arms pub?

No, I don't know any Jodie. Get
out before I call the police.

Come on. Get out. Move!

Your angry face looks like
your cum face, to be honest.

The three of ya,
get off my property!

Get out!

I've been following you, son.

It's my duty to
look out for you.

Guardian... protector... father.

HE EXHALES SHAKILY

Sorry, it's still
really tough to hear.

And that's obviously
not the fella, is it?

Do you know, for a second, I
thought I'd found the reason

why I've always felt like
the black sheep of me family.

I finally felt a sense of

belonging.

But it wasn't real.

Just don't embarrass me, OK?

When do I ever
embarrass you, love, eh?

Wait, habibti, please,
please, please.

I'm not cheating on you, OK?
She's from another Libyan family,

and my mum and uncle
wanted me to meet her.

But why? You're
going out with me.

They're scared I'm gonna lose my
culture and forget my heritage.

That's why you didn't want me
coming round to your house,

they don't want
you to be with me?

I don't know what
I'm supposed to do.

Just... Just talk to them.

Just tell them how
you feel about me.

I've tried. I have tried.

Do you like this girl?

How could I like her,
when I'm in love with you?

But they're my family.

And they sacrificed so
much for me to be here.

I'm... I'm sorry.

I... I can't.

Are you sure this is the place?

I know it was 17 years ago,

but maybe someone at The
Farmer's Arms will recognise her.

What are yous doing here?

Christopher text us, telling us
to come to The Farmer's Arms,

to ask around about Mr 997.

But as soon as we got
here, some bloke accused me

of being Trevor that
broke up his marriage.

Dead weird.

This other fella,
he's made me buy meat.

Oh, lad, that stinks.

They're not approaching
normal people here.

He was in the cubicle next to
me and slid it under the door.

Look, you either find
him or you don't.

But we'll always
have each other, OK?

Now, I know you didn't like it when
Disneyland Darren serenaded you,

so I'm not gonna
do that. I just...

I want you to know
you're so special, Reece.

You followed us here?

You are my dad, I knew
it. But why did you lie?

I've got no idea what
you're chatting, lad,

but if yous keep staring, the
biggest one's getting chinned.

You with me? Eh? 'Ey,
Martin didn't have a tattoo.

Ah, yous think I'm Martin.
No, no, I'm Alan, his twin.

But they call me Mr 997
cos I got the highest score

on the boxing machine
in this place.

20 years, and the record
still stands. Oosh!

BEEPING FANFARE

These new iBoxer machines
don't count, lad. Proper jarg.

Scoring 1,000 on them is
like scoring 600 in my day.

The game's gone, lad.
Do you remember a Jodie?

You met her at this
pub, like, 17 years ago?

Jodie... Jodie...

Bloody hell, yeah.

Jodie! Fuck, that's a blast
from the past, that, lad.

This is Reece,
Jodie's son. Right.

We thought Martin was his
dad, but... you're his dad.

Are you having me on, fella?

You're my boy?

Let's get a look
at you, then, 'ey!

'Ey! Hey, you know

You've got them

Let's test your jaw out,
