All language subtitles for Waterloo Road s05e12

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

You said quarter to.

Sorry. What kept you? I went to the
doctor, Steph, as advised, and that was

only appointment I could get. Oh?

Blah, blah, anxiety, blah, blah,
sedatives.

Blah, blah, diazepam.

Well, at least you're doing something
about it. That's good.

Like me, you're prepared.

Yes, I am. I mean, does that look like
somebody who's not in control?

I'm going to throw those in the bin.

Well, that's a bit stupid. The doctor
obviously thinks you need them. All I

is a couple of good nights' sleep.

Now, that is everything we need for a
highly successful trip.

Oh, Rachel will be impressed.

Well, that's the plan.

But, you know, I doubt it, because she
is waiting to see me fail. Oh, God!

Are you sure you're all right, Ruby?
Yes, I'm fine. I am fine.

But I would appreciate it if you didn't
talk about it at all, and so on.

You okay for another hour?

Can't. Got school.

Yeah, I know that.

But I need those barrels of sanitiser
from the barn.

I can't shift them on my own.

If I'm late again, I'll get detention.

Yeah, and we'll get closed down by the
bank unless we start making some money.

So why did you cancel my school trip?

School trips make money. Craig, we've
been through this.

We cancelled it because the farm's not
ready. You said that Ruby understood.

She did.

Just a bit disappointed.

Well, I thought you'd be grateful your
friends aren't coming. You're always

moaning about this place.

Look.

We need to get it back on its feet
first. And we'll get the skills coming

Is this before or after I fail all my
exams?

I'm going in.

Oh, thanks.

Try thinking what Dad would make of that
attitude.

Yeah, I can make it there for five.

Do I need to bring anything with me?

No, er... No, I'm going to be on my own.

All right, thank you.

See you later.

Everything OK?

Yeah, yeah, fine. Just a parent who
wants to come and see me.

Right.

Parent.

Yeah. Why?

If you need to talk, Kim, you know where
I am, yeah?

Right.

Ta -da!

What do you think?

I think it's good.

Yeah, we might need to be a little bit
more enthusiastic than that if we're

going to get Rachel on board. Sorry.

You all right?

No, it's great.

It's great.

Go on then.

I hope I'm not going out on a limb here.

We're not going out. We're just having a
laugh.

It's okay to have a laugh, innit?

Yeah, of course it is, but today we knew
that.

Hey, Finn!

Hey!

What are you guys gossiping about?

Er, the farm trip.

What's that?

Just a little something to liven things
up.

Is that things?

What do you think, Joshes?

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm in.

That is excellent.

The staff behind it? Yeah, I think so.

But the whole point of peer mentoring is
about trust and empowerment, so it's up

to the children now.

Not exactly. We've still got to keep an
eye on things.

Yeah, we will, but we're not going to
mollycoddle them.

You know, the whole point of this is to
allow it to work without our

intervention. Our kids will step up.

Sounds like it's good to go.

Hey, are you going to wish me luck?

Oh, of course.

It's your first day back in the
classroom, isn't it? Yes, good chance to

few teachers' paths.

At a time when the kids get to know them
better.

Mentoring matches Year 12 with Year 8.
Its priority is to offer practical help

for classwork. I think we should all see
the benefits.

Most of them couldn't mentor a geranium.

Oh, Ruby, thank you for the farm visit.
It's all looking like a great start to

our emotional health programme.

What has a trip to the farm got to do
with emotional health?

A healthy dose of country air.

I'm sorry about this.

Guys, I'd just like to remind you all
again that collective responsibility is

the key thing here, with the mentoring
and with the visit, because, as you

we did have a very serious incident last
week involving the abduction of one of

our pupils.

And the more we know about our pupils,
about their concerns and their hopes,

their often troubled backgrounds, the
more likely we are to prevent another

Bianca Vale incident.

If you could just all remember to check
the cover sheet, because we are quite a

few down today.

So, going back into the trenches, eh? I
must say, I'm impressed.

It's not every head who would put
themselves up for a challenge like that.

He doesn't think I'm going to make it
through today.

I thought you'd have sharper instincts
than that, being a betting man. Well,

prove me wrong.

Fancy a small wager on it, say £10.

Nah, that's stealing.

Tell you what, if you double it, I might
be interested.

You're late, Craig.

Sorry, miss. I was helping Mark.

Do you know, we've all got things to do.
We still managed to get here on time.

Go on.

Such a flirt, isn't he?

Was he flirting with you?

What gives you that idea?

Maybe it's just his way. He wouldn't
mean anything by it.

I don't trust him.

My advice, stay away.

You're so fancy, I'm sure he won't copy
you.

Yeah, well.

Maybe it's not your sort. I mean, you
like the quiet type.

What's that supposed to mean?

Well, you like to play it safe.

Me?

I like the bad boys.

Can't help it.

That's the itinerary, Craig. I mean, you
know, it's the same as last year, but

just read through it. Let me know if
you've got any problems.

It's going to be great.

It's the first time Waterloo Roaders
have seen the farm.

Well, it's the first time I've seen it
since... You know, since Mark took over.

Oh, he's doing a great job, your
brother, running the farm. Your dad

ever so proud.

Yeah. Can't wait for you to see what
he's done with the place. I know.

Mrs Fry?

Sorry, do you mind if I just leave this
here for after the break?

What? Well, I'm covering your year
eights after the break.

No, um... Sorry, yes.

Are you?

You going to leave some work out for
them?

Absolutely, yeah.

They've got worksheets to be getting on
with.

Worksheets? No practical stuff. I quite
fancy doing a bit of cooking.

No, no, because they did do that last
lesson.

Oh. And anyway, the theory is very
important.

Oh, of course.

Well, enjoy the farm trip, everyone. I
hope you have a great time.

Ruby, can you just give me a call around
lunchtime? Just let me know

everything's going OK.

Absolutely. Great.

What's so special about this farm, then?

Not much.

We might need someone to make it a bit
more exciting.

There'll be a lot going on.

Anyway, we can sneak off and have a few
swigs.

You'll be fine.

Mrs Pryle, I've a lot to worry about.

Mrs Pryle!

Oh, yeah?

Hiding all your unmarked coursework, are
you? Come on, we're waiting for you.

Dad, I am in big trouble.

I haven't ordered any ingredients for
weeks.

The kids haven't done any cooking and
have not marked their homework.

I just haven't had the energy.

Rachel, she's going to be in here. She's
going to be... Oh, God, she's going to

be snooping around.

No, she isn't. Just lock the door after
you and bring the key. Come on, onto the

outside.

Ray.

Yeah? Can you phone Mark and tell him
that we're on our way, please?

Yeah, right, miss.

Is that him?

Yeah.

Yeah, I know. His dad died last year, so
it's just him and his brother.

Do you want to come in?

Well, let me just cope in with it.
They're like that, though, aren't they?

just throw anything at them, they bounce
right back.

Thank you, driver.

All right,

everybody.

You'll settle down for me.

Now, listen up. You need... To put them
at ease, all right? So find out what

they like, their favourite food or their
favourite TV programme.

Favourite six -former.

No, Philip, this is not a personal
vanity programme.

It'll be a bit like having an older
brother or an older sister.

Just one that doesn't tell you to go
away and stop embarrassing them.

Yeah, don't forget to take notes and
don't forget to fill in your post

-interview forms.

Right, let's go and meet your mentors.

Well, come on, you lot, they won't bite.

Now, if you come across any problems
that you think are too big to solve,

don't try and solve them yourself.

Oh, here we go.

All right.

All right, then. Here we go. You two
know each other, don't you? Now, Roz is

of our best.

I've never done anything like this
before. No, it's fine. Just trust your

instincts. You don't need us. Whatever
you think I need you to do it.

Do you think they've had enough
training?

Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

They'll be fine.

All right, Craig.

Yeah, I know what you need. Hand it
over, Josh.

You are such a bad influence on me.

That's me.

Are you sure?

No, thanks, I'm all right.

Oh, come on, Siobhan, do some of this to
your change.

Just one.

You in, Craig?

Nah, better not.

He can't drink, he's a farm guide.

Do you have a late night with your
quadruple espresso?

Whatever it takes to get me through.

We're here.

Now put your wellies on, everyone.

Wow. It's a dump, mate.

What's happened here?

It wasn't like this last year.

Is this your brother, Craig?

Yeah, that's him.

Hello, Mark. How are you? Ruby?

What are you doing here?

School prep.

I wrote you a letter cancelling the
trip.

I gave it to Craig to give to you.

You didn't give it to her, did you?

Yeah. I left it on your desk.

Didn't get a letter.

You must have known this morning that
Ruby was going ahead with the trip.

I know.

I'm sorry.

I don't understand.

Look, I'm sorry. I'm afraid you'll have
to leave.

It's not a good time, Ruby.

I'm not ready for you. There's no farm
trails, nothing.

What were you playing at?

Look, I know you're always worrying
about money and stuff.

And I thought the trip would help.

They're here now.

Perhaps they should stay.

Come here.

I just thought it would help.

That's what we were talking about this
morning.

You need to cover your ears, aren't you?

Could you queue up outside, please? I'll
call you when I'm ready.

Queuing for classes.

Oh, that stopped.

Circa 82.

Can I help you, Grantley?

You really have been out of the
classroom a long time.

I think you're in for a bit of a shock.

Don't try and spook me.

Teaching's like riding a bike.

Once you know how, you never forget.

That's just it, isn't it?

We're not teaching anymore.

The job's about crowd control.

Keeping yobs in their seats.

Trying to pretend you don't hear them
swearing at you. That is enough!

I am going to enjoy myself, so get lost.
Everything's under control.

Of course it is.

Anyway, any problems, don't hesitate to
sort them out yourself.

Ruby, can we not just go back?

No, because what am I going to tell
Rachel? She's actually going to string

up.

Please, would you help me persuade Mark?

Oh, come on. Thank you.

So, what do you say, Mark, eh?

I'm sure a...

A strong young man like you can cope
with a few 14 -year -olds.

And, of course, you'd have the undying
gratitude of me and Ruth.

And Mark.

Mark, please.

All right, a quick tour and then it's
off.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you so much.

Get some tires, you.

Right, everyone.

Come on.

You're going to love this, miss.

Yeah. You've got to be careful, though.
A couple of the pens are a bit wobbly.

There's an old lecky in the chicken
shed.

Oh. And the barn roof's falling in.
Thank you, Craig. Oh, with the knackered

barn here and the pile of crap there.
Here a poo, there a poo. Listen, it's

fine. It's going to be fine.

Can you not call me rude, please?

You know what even that car is for?

It's just a way for the teachers to get
us to do their jobs for us.

Oi!

Dental, are you wanting a mentor?

Because I've got a great big fat one in
here for you.

You're supposed to be helping us and
listening to our complaints and that.

Have you got to complain about someone
giving you too much homework?

Yeah, lips it does.

In fact, I've got loads of complaints.

Budging stinky breath, frown licking her
fingers and putting it back in the cake

mix without washing it, hate up giving
us colouring in without teaching us

French, Denzel Pat. I've heard enough.

We need to do something about this,
Bolton.

Right, what I want you to do is write
down everything that is bugging you

this place.

Including teachers?

Especially the teachers.

Yeah, get anyone else who's got a
problem to make a complaint to, and

a massive boxing dumper on Miss Mason's
desk. She'll get angry.

Yeah, but like you said, we've been told
to listen to you, so we're just

following orders, really.

In.

Sir, Andrew's making a complaint to his
mentor.

I know he's the way of saying this, sir,
but I've had your breakfast, eh?

Not one more word.

Now get in.

Mentors. God help us all.

They're going to ruin the day, in
effect.

Carla, I need Miss Mason to sign off on
these today.

She's in food tech.

Why, sir?

Because I need her to read them
urgently, all right?

No, I mean, why is Miss Mason in food
tech?

Just take them, girl.

And don't forget to tell her I need them
back today.

Okay, guys, settle down, please.

Right.

Today, doing worksheets.

Again.

Mrs. Pricey did a practical last week,
Denzel. Theories is important.

Yeah.

Can't Mr. Budgin ask me to give you
these?

What are they?

His preliminary form reports and he
wants feedback.

OK, thanks, Carl.

He said as soon as possible.

Thanks, Carl.

Okey -dokey, worksheets. Miss, we
haven't done any cooking for ages.

Really? Mrs. Fry usually demonstrates.

We never get a go.

I see.

OK.

This is going to be a little new to me,
but what do you say to us doing some

cooking today?

Yeah. You like that?

All right.

Farm's a bit different from last year,
eh, miss?

Yeah. Well, there are a few changes.

Changes? Is that what you call them?

Hard times, Ruby.

You don't march at the farm shop.

Later for all the workers.

It's just the two of you?

Yeah. Sooner he finishes school, better.

Through you come.

Come on, hurry up. Okay,

now, just here, Betty.

She's a five -year -old freeship.

Right, now, we obviously use the
machines to milk, but on school trips,

the chance to milk by hand.

Any turkeys?

No.

No?

What about you, Miss Hair Doc?

Me? You're having a laugh. on you.

It's a simple enough technique.

Come on, Miss.

Come on, Miss, do it.

Come on.

You can weigh anything up to 100 stones.

So she steps on your foot.

Crunch. Eye by toe.

How much does the car weigh? Yes, very
funny.

Right.

Wrap your hands around the base there of
the teat.

And just squeeze gently down.

No, no, you've got to squeeze down to
get the milk out. Don't jerk.

Squeeze gently from the base.

How much milk does she give?

She'll milk close to 80 pints a day.

80 pints? I've not had any of that long.
Somebody else have a go.

We used to have twice as many cows.

We can't manage them now.

I don't think everyone needs to know
that, Craig.

Now, can anyone tell me anything about
the pasteurisation process?

There you go. Well done.

Oh, I thank you.

Yeah, no, we're having a great time.
Thank you, yes.

The keys are... Oh, do you know, the
little sods, they're always hiding them.

But listen, don't worry, they can just
get on with the worksheet.

Ruby, it's OK, I'll get a spare set.

OK, mashing.

We'll see you later.

OK, bye -bye.

She's getting the spare keys from the
caretaker for the storeroom.

Great.

Quiet, please.

Now, Emily, could you pop to the
caretaker's formula and say that Miss

says she wants the master's key for the
food tech room?

Thank you. And I'll take that.

Thanks.

I told you.

An empty storeroom is hardly grounds for
dismissal.

Oh, they're gorgeous.

Oh, no, look at their eyes. They creep
me out.

Right, now, these are domestic parkers.

These will be off to the abattoir in
about two months.

What do you mean?

Well, pigs go for slaughter when they're
about six months.

You kill them when they're babies?

We all end up on the slab one way or the
other.

And they're eating pig again?

Well, if you do, just make sure it ain't
one of ours. It's the Welsh guzzy.

What's with the smart aleck comments
you? You trying to embarrass me?

This place is a hole.

They're not blind.

There's no point in saying that it's
not. Yeah, well, if you helped out a bit

more, it might not be.

Stop complaining and showing me up. If
you want to make yourself useful, go and

get those barrels I asked for this
morning.

It's not like you need to be on the car,
is it?

Right then.

Follow me.

You're indeterminate. To make life
difficult for your brother.

What? You're not exactly helping with
your little dicks, are you?

Just saying how it is.

You've seen how bad the police is now.
Do you know what I see? I see a young

working very hard to support his younger
brother, and you should have a bit more

gratitude.

Right.

You need cheering up, mate.

Can I see a drink?

Yeah. Yeah.

Come on, lead the way, then.

Josh, come on.

Wait, what's he on?

Right.

Who wants to learn how to make
flapjacks?

Okay,

kids, you need to start thinking about
getting your mix in the oven.

You've got about two minutes.

Oh, no, Sam, we'll get done. They're
going to kill them, Lauren.

All you have to do is keep watch.

Come on, piggy.

Come on.

Open the gate, Lauren.

Open it. Come on, go. Go, you're free.

I've been seeing things, Sam.

Lauren, I've got to go and hide this
thing.

No!

It's not a game.

lessons.

By the skin of her teeth.

She thinks she can do two jobs at once.

If she can, heads clearly don't have
enough on their plates.

Yo, Den, come here. Come here.

Right.

See this box here?

This is for you to collect everyone's
complaints in.

Everyone writes down a problem on a
piece of paper, then posts it into the

there.

Have you got that?

Are you sure?

Good. I don't come back until it's full,
yeah? Yeah, make sure you get everyone

to really go for it. Humble's told us.

She likes French. It's just that she
does have nine other subjects.

Math, English, science. Okay, okay. Yep,
I get the point, Ros.

Thank you.

Is this a joke?

No, sir.

Um, I just feel that she could really
benefit from some individual tutoring.

After everything that's happened.

Miss McCain.

Hmm? I will give you two seconds to get
out of my...

Down in one, mate.

It's always this place of crap.

There's nothing crap about this, mate.

I'm going to try and live in here, then.

Getting up at five every morning and
having him bosh it around all the time.

You really don't like your brother, do
you?

If he thinks I'm working here for the
rest of my life, I'm going to get

Mate, you don't want to be a farmer.
Don't be simple, lad.

Just tell him.

What's up there?

My daddy said there was a ghost up
there.

I think he just said it so and go up.

Brilliant. Let's have a look.

What are you doing?

Money too tight, money too tight.

Idiot.

It's in his bowels, Craig.

Sanitiser. For the milksheds.

What do you mean?

What's she up for?

Stop me then.

Want a hand?

No, better not. I can do it. Horrible
stuff.

God's sake, stuff it.

No, because you don't fancy him. What a
slipper.

He kissed me.

You're right. Ask him.

She kissed me.

Amy, he's lying.

Come on, let's get down.

No, come on now, girls. It wasn't even a
proper kiss. Wait till I get my jacket

on.

What were you doing?

Was this some sort of swine liberation
front?

It was a very stupid thing to do,
Sambuca. I apologise to Mr Moran at

you got any idea how expensive those
animals are? Have you seen the state of

this farm? You should be getting
reported.

Get her out of my sight right now. Get
her out of my sight right now. Right

please, Steph.

And Quaid, I don't know where Quaid is.
Can you find Quaid, please?

He was his barrel. He's done well,
hasn't he?

It's sticking.

Josh, you OK?

No, I can't see.

Miss, it's Josh. He's had an accident.

Oh, dear God.

Drinking on a school trip.

Sorry, miss.

Get up.

Stand up.

Keep your eye closed.

All right, it still stings.

He could have lost his sight.

You are all so for the high jump when we
get back.

So sorry,

mate.

Didn't mean for that to happen.

I don't get sued for this. Do you know
this is all Rachel needs to get me out?

Here.

Phone her.

And let Tom know.

Oh, God. A nightmare.

How many you got?

It's nearly full.

Who put in here?

I've already spilled them to Rouse. The
teacher's a crap. You've got to complain

about it.

Drop whatever you want. I've put one in
about Pudging's breath.

Hand that over.

This has got to go to Miss Mason.

Now!

You are in big trouble, boy.

Sir, it's not his fault. He was told to
do it.

You come with me, Kelly.

Right, who can repeat that list to me?

I'm sorry to interrupt.

I slipped it. I'm trying to teach you.

I know.

Ruby's on the phone. There's been an
accident.

I'll be back as quickly as I can.

Well, Drinker was involved, yeah.

At the moment, we're just in the middle
of questioning the kids, so... Right.

We'll see you later. Bye -bye.

What did she say?

Fine, it's all fine. Just, um, get right
back.

Did she say anything about what she'll
do?

Well, it's not your fault, Mark.

I'm responsible for the place.

If anything goes wrong, it's down to me.

But I'd better follow you back and
explain what happened.

She's going to throw the book at me.

Come on.

I can't believe we had a fight over a
guy.

Yeah. Now we're all in trouble for it.

It's not that Finn seems to care.

I know.

It's a bit crazy.

I don't trust him.

What? Snogging the face off him, that
your way of checking?

I'm staying away.

I'm in enough trouble.

It's all yours.

Mrs Campbell, would you mind explaining
to me the meaning of this?

I've got absolutely no idea, Mr Budgin.
Well, I will enlighten you, shall I?

I've already been told how to do my job
by that Ros McCain, and now, in here,

thanks to your stupid mentoring scheme,
are hundreds of complaints about members

of staff in this school.

Complaints? Yes.

Insulting, sexually degrading,
outrageous slurs on your colleagues,

libelous. Go on, have a look at your
handiwork.

It was supposed to encourage
responsibility.

Er, what's going on?

Oh, Miss Mason.

Perfect timing.

Perhaps you would like to hear how Miss
Campbell's mentoring scheme has made

every teacher a laughing stock, thanks
to this idiot.

Miss, Bolton and Paul said they were
told to collect stuff about the

Right. They were just trying to be good
mentors.

Go on, you scoot.

I'll come and find you later.

Perhaps if we'd had someone at the helm.

Grant me.

Whether I'm in a classroom or not, I am
still in charge.

Kim, you do need to keep a closer eye on
things. You can't introduce new ideas

into a school and not stay on top of
them. Oh, no, I'm sorry. Is that it?

Yes, it is, Granny. Now, calm down and
shut up.

Denise, can you cover my class, please?
I've got a problem I need to sort out.

You were straight in form, you see.

Ruby, the word be.

What I don't understand is how five
pupils managed to go unnoticed for so

Why didn't Craig come and talk to you
this morning about the trip being

cancelled? I don't know.

What's he like normally? You know.

Tired and distracted lately, but nothing
like this. Rachel, could I speak to

Craig, please?

Because it is out of character. It has
happened on my trip, and I do feel very

responsible.

Yes, all right.

I'm going to speak with your friend, Mr
Moran. There is no way that we are going

to go back on that farm again.

Do you know how lucky you are?

Yeah. Your lives could have been
permanently damaged.

But they weren't.

No, and that's just sheer luck.

Accidents happen, Dad.

Well, they happen a lot more when
alcohol's involved.

What the hell were you playing at,
drinking on a school trip?

I was just having a laugh.

Where did you get the booze from?

Don't know.

Didn't see it past the bottle.

Oh, don't give me that.

Finn Sharkey brought it in, didn't he?

Maybe.

Didn't he?

Yeah, all right, yeah, he did.

But he didn't make me drink it. That was
my decision.

I don't believe you, Josh. What, like he
opened my mouth and shoved it down my

throat? Oh, yeah. Right.

From now on, you stay away from that
lad. No way.

He's trouble.

He's my best mate.

Not anymore, he isn't.

You got that?

Now, come on.

Kim?

Have you been hiding from the angry
teachers?

I've messed up.

No, you were right.

They needed more training.

Hey, look, I was all for it as well.

It was a great idea.

In theory.

I don't know how I'm going to face
everyone.

You know, the things the kids said, they
said some really terrible stuff, and

then I've got Grantley going... Yeah,
well, Grantley's had his rant now.

And we both know that Grantley's
happiest when he's ranting. You should

pleased with yourself. You've given him
a great day.

Come on.

Let's go and get a cuppa.

Where are you going?

Are you out tonight?

No.

I was talking to Amy, actually.

See you tomorrow, Finn. We're washing
our hair.

Amy, I'll wait for you. Eight o 'clock.
You know you'll be there.

But you have to admit, it would have
been better if you'd called Mrs Fry

yourself. Explain why you needed to
cancel. I know that now.

I knew the farm wasn't suitable.

I did try to explain that to Ruby this
morning.

But she persuaded me against my better
judgement to let them stay.

Nonetheless, chemicals left out in an
open barn. You know, it should have been

locked. Oh, there should have been
better supervision.

Two teachers there and no control over
the kids at all.

What's going on?

I chucked the letter away.

I wanted you to come.

See how bad the place is now that Dad's
gone.

You should have spoken to me.

I tried.

Like this morning when I was late
because I was working and you just

was an excuse.

Yeah, well... I didn't realise how tough
things were.

You always seem so happy in school.

I am. I like being here.

But it doesn't mean things are OK at
home, does it?

No.

Look, you can imagine the implications
that this could have for me.

Yes, I can.

I can and I'm sorry, but I am duty
-bound to make a report to Health and

So I could get closed down?

They weren't even meant to be there.

I know. I don't know their procedures.

They may want to make an investigation.
I don't know.

Craig would just cancel the trip like he
was asked. Oh, come on, Mr Moran. I'll

stop it.

He could be in serious trouble because
of what you did.

He could lose the farm, Craig.

But if he lost the farm, it might not be
so bad.

Get that over.

I mean, I'm not even sure if I want to
be with him.

You, you spent the last day in this
place, mate. Out. Now.

From now on, you're going to be alright.
I can see what you're doing.

Every day.

Mark. Get a move on.

Please, Mark. Wait.

We need to talk.

Mike would have been killed, Ruby.

There. Talking over.

Just listen to what he has to say.

Craig. Tell Mark. Look what you told me.

I'm 14.

I shouldn't have to work on the farm if
I don't want to.

I want to go and finish my exam and go
to college.

So did I.

But I didn't have a choice.

It's not Craig's fault. Ruby, have you
got any idea what it's like trying to

keep my head above water?

Eh?

Working every hour just to make sure
that he's looked after. Having no time

myself.

Dad built this business up for the both
of us.

Didn't he?

So that we'd have something. I don't
want it.

Dad knew that.

So why do you keep going on about it?
It's me who kept the farm going.

Me who gave up the chance to go into
university to help him.

He's dead, Mark.

You don't care about a precious farm
anymore.

So why do you?

It's all we've got left of you.

Do you have any idea how much I hate the
place?

It's everywhere.

Something wrong, Kim?

It's my first scan.

And I'm not really looking forward to
it.

Well, I'm sure everything will be okay.

It's not how I imagined it to be.

On my own.

Well, I'll come.

If you want.

I'm a scientist, you know.

I can count if it's got all its fingers
and toes.

These are Craig's grades for last term.

He has excelled in every subject until
recently.

I mean, this is A -star quality.

But it won't be if he keeps hands in his
coursework later.

I didn't know you were so clever.

Well, yeah.

He has his moments.

You should be very proud of him.

I just need you to lift up your top so I
can give you the old jelly belly.

Do you want me to wait outside?

No, no.

No, it's fine.

There you go.

Is everything all right? Is everything
all right?

Everything's fine.

Do you want to know what the sex is? Oh,
yes, please.

Sorry.

Sorry, it's nothing to do with me.

Have you heard him?

It's a boy.

Can I keep him here, Sam? Of course we
can.

Do you want him to end up in a kebab,
Molly?

That's a lamb, you numpty.

Your mum could put him in a few passages
there. Shut up.

No one is going anywhere near him.

I'm going to call him Albert.

I love him.

I actually love him.

But not a word to anyone, because he is
not going back to that farm.

Maybe.

They all got a bit carried away, what
can I say?

I don't know, it was really... I just
wanted to apologise for today, Miss.

The others are having detention tomorrow
afternoon. I do expect to see you

there, Craig, OK?

So not a word, OK?

No!

I don't believe it.

One of our piglets.

Easy, easy. You brought him in on the
coach.

Pick it up.

You got it.

You stole a piglet. I didn't steal it.

Are you going to kill him?

I take it you didn't see that either,
Ruby. I hope she isn't hurt.

She? We need to get her back and check
doorway.

You're not going to kill her, are you?

We need a new brooder, don't we, Mark?

I suppose.

All right, we'll keep her.

You can come and visit.

Thanks.

Come on, you lot, get out of here.
You're in real trouble.

Get down there.

Excuse me.

Thanks, Ruby.

I will do right by Craig.

We'll get the farm back on its feet.

And get this one in school first thing.

See you. See you.

Get you, Ruby the Peacemaker, eh?
Sorting those two out. Can I have a word

Ruby, please, Steph?

Yeah.

Yeah, OK, I'll, um... See you later.

Thanks, Steph.

Oh, Rachel, I am so terribly sorry about
today.

Not just about today, is it, Ruby?

Ah, your storeroom's empty. The kids say
they never did a practical last week.

Oh, that was another class.

But surely you've got lesson plans. You
must know what each of your classes are

doing.

Ruby, are you okay?

No, I'm not. Not really.

Do you want me to set a bit of time
aside to have a chat or something?

Well, maybe.

You know, I've just had a bad couple of
weeks.

Yeah, I do understand.

Teaching's a really demanding
profession, isn't it?

What about us looking at dropping some
of your management responsibilities?

No, I can't.

Well, I can't do that, Rachel. I need
the money.

I know, but I need it to be on the ball,
Ruby.

I can't carry anyone.

Have a think about it. No, I don't need
to.

You know, I know what it's like in this
place. You take a demotion and six

months later you haven't got a job.

I'm trying to help you here, Ruby,
that's all. I'm fine.

I'm fine.

Okay.

All right, well, I'll see you tomorrow
then. Bright and early.

Okay.

Nice shoes, Steph.

I have just spent a day on a farm with
Ruby Fry, so please be gentle with me.

What is wrong with her? She's been in a
free mood all week.

Oh, I don't know. She's just got a few
things to sort out. You know she'll be

fine. Hello.

Hiya. Rachel!

Sorry things didn't go according to
plan, but Ruby, well, she did her best

Josh is fine, so... Yeah, no thanks to
Finch. Yeah, but it wasn't just him,

Chris. Here we are. Oh, Grantley, hang
on. Let me get those.

No, no, Miss Mason.

These are on me.

Please, can someone record this moment
for posterity?

Here you are.

Thank you. It's not every day one gets
to take £20 from the headteacher.

Excuse me?

Well, I said you wouldn't last more than
a day.

What makes you think I won't be teaching
tomorrow?

Because today proved that a headteacher
needs to focus on their job and leave

the teaching to us.

Grantley, despite you sending kids into
me all day and all those reports you

wanted me to look at and all the other
nonsense that you created for me, I was

fine. I know.

Oh, I will be there tomorrow.

Will you?

Cheers, Grantley.

Cheers. Cheers.

Cough up.

Bye!

I knew you'd come.

Yeah, well, I felt sorry for you.

Sorry for me? Yeah.

I saw your little face when we knocked
you back.

I never did that. Yeah, you did. I
never.

I thought you'd have no one to play
with.

You still came, though.

Even though you told Siobhan you
wouldn't.

She's my mate, not my mum.

She's not still mad about us kissing,
then?

You did that for attention.

I never.

Yeah, you did.

I didn't.

I just wanted to be sure.

What do you mean?

Sure it was you that I wanted to go out
with.

If you want to go out with me,
obviously.

What, like proper go out?

It's me and you?

Yeah, of course.

Do you know if I can trust you?

You're the one I really like, Amy.

Do you think there's something going on
between him and Chris?

In his dreams, yeah.

See you tomorrow.

Taxi! Oh, shut up. Just get in and
pretend it's ours.

Prescott Road, please, then.

Somewhere near Moss Bank.

Moss Bank?

Oh.
