All language subtitles for Waterloo Road s07e24

I think

it's

got one of those talking book apps.

I reckon you could listen to one of
those books from book club in about a

even if you can't read it.

Is this going to be all right?

There must be. Nearly £500 missing from
this envelope was the rest of my money.

But, sir, how do you expect us to get
this money back?

The same way I did, young man.

By working for it.

Then why are you still smoking this
crap?

Tell me!

We're going to exclude you for a week.
Make no mistake, if you betray my trust

again, you are out for good.

Do I sense a little romance in the air?

I'm a married man, Daniel. Stand aside,
please. I am going to see my wife.

Judging by what I've just seen and what
the kids think of you, I really believe

that there's a role for you here.

Do you want me as head of English?

Well, I don't need a bodyguard.

Welcome to Waterloo Road.

Do the cold reactionary overrule the
heart?

Tear up the talk of a brand new start.

Then look back.

You don't know how it happened, don't
know how it all began.

All you know is it was never part of the
plan.

I came as fast as I could.

Everything still okay?

What are you doing?

Come on, we're already late. Five
minutes.

Don't forget your PE kit. I won't.

Look, you can't go to school like that,
mate. Tuck your shirt in.

Don't you care what you look like?

Just because he doesn't spend an hour
posing in front of a mirror, unlike some

other people I could mention.

What's wrong with looking after
yourself?

More like loving yourself.

Sometimes I find it hard to believe you
two are related.

Me too.

Dad, can I borrow my chaser?

No. Your daughter can, however.

Well, Zach, in the car in five minutes.

It's amazing.

You haven't read it properly.

Some bits are really crap.

Shut up. It's mint.

You think the kid's going to win, but
then he doesn't.

I think you should show it to Mr.
Wallaby. No way. Do you think I can

reading it properly?

Give you some more constructive
feedback.

Yeah, OK.

Label.

Thought you were going to walk with us
today.

You had the better of me.

You wish.

Hey, cheer up, shrimp.

You're OK?

Yeah, I'm fine.

She's responding really well to the
antibiotics.

And we're confident that the infection's
cleared up and she's stable.

Hello, Martha.

Your daddy.

He could have so much fun, you and me.

They're talking me into this. It's the
best feeling ever.

I just repeat.

I'll be back at lunch, yeah?

I printed off our announcements for
assembly this morning.

So, anything in red is your line.
Anything you say, what?

Get a room.

What's the wonder, Pete? You stoned
again?

No, no, we're out of sweat now.

Oh, well done, mate. Come on, mate.

Don't we go outside?

No, it'll just be a test.

Well, it might not be.

Here's one for you, Mr Mathematic. Two
across, the universal answer.

Forty -two.

Hear anything?

No, we just have a couple before we go
out.

It's not a test.

What? Ain't somebody smoking in the
toilet?

Two sugars, please.

It's not a test.

Come on, do you want to go to bed?

Point me.

Point me, what are you doing?

Kyle, Tarek, grow up. Come on, shift
yourselves.

I'm sorry to interrupt your breakfast,
but there is a fire and I... I'm going.

What, do you need me to get this to turn
out?

Move! What's wrong with you lot? Come
on, get out!

It exploded.

It wasn't my fault. Okay, well, just try
and calm down.

You try calming down. You're not the one
that nearly got killed.

I don't think it would have killed you.

I would like to see how far Mr Byrne
would get. With an oven that doesn't get

past gas mark six, a set of cookie
knives that are older than me granny and

exploding grill.

What are you laughing at?

Silence.

Quiet, please.

Shut up!

Thank you.

Have any of you got any idea how long it
took you to vacate the building?

38 seconds.

Anyone else?

Five minutes.

Nowhere even close.

It took you 12 and a half minutes, and
that is not good enough. It was no

at the other assembly points.

You're lucky it wasn't a serious fire,
and if it had been, some of you would

have been killed.

You need to get that time down to three
minutes.

I've assigned two student fire wardens
for each year group.

to try and sort this mess out.

The following students step forward.
Year 12, Katie Pitkin, David Jones.

Year 13, Kyle Stack.

Seeing as you're so keen to get the time
down.

And Josh Stevenson.

Miss Boston is coordinating. I'll leave
you in her capable hands. The rest of

you inside quietly, please.

Get to your first lesson.

Has the time off done Josh any good?

Yeah, he's pleased to be back.

I thought we'd give him some
responsibility.

Maybe it'll help him focus.

Thank you.

Right, come on, lads, hurry up. Let the
fire alarm set us back.

I forgot my boots.

I reminded you about that earlier.

Try seven, yeah?

Just remember what I told you.

Hang back.

Forget about the Gloriantni strikers.

Defenders, they're the real heroes.

I get it.

I'm rubbish. Keep out of the way.

That's not what I'm saying, OK?

The defence is the heart of the team.

Right?

That's it.

What the kids make

That's

it

He's running, that's it. Go on, go,
move.

To me?

To me?

What was that?

I love it. I'm trying.

It's got the sweetest pass ever.

I'm sorry, okay?

I know,

I'm sorry.

What? Enough.

Stick to what you've got at,
Shakespeare.

OK,

don't tell anyone about the test later.

Just make sure you get everyone out in
under three minutes, OK?

Familiarise yourself with all the fire
exits and the various assembly points.

Josh, what do you do if you find a
locked A10?

You point him to the fire and watch him
burn.

Have you ever considered stand -up,
Carl? Cos that was really funny.

All right, where's the fire assembly
point for years 11 and 12?

Can't remember, sorry.

It's good to see you've been paying
attention. It's the playground.

Okay, that's it. Go on. Go back to your
classes.

Okay.

I'm supposed to remember all of these.

You are joking.

Yeah, obviously.

I can't believe we lost that match.
Don't blame me. You're the one who

to Zach.

What's your problem?

Just the shame you didn't inherit any
sporting talent off your dad.

Yeah, he's amazing. I'm crap. I get it.
I can't believe you're even related.

Are you saying he's not really my dad?

She doesn't really mean it.

Maybe she's right.

Maybe he isn't.

Car park, break time and don't even
think about being late.

What, sir?

It's not for discussion. You should have
thought about it before you nicked my

money.

Mr Budgeon, can I have a word?

I've had a phone call from Candora
Cosmetics.

What are you going to make us do?

Wait and see, but I think I'm going to
enjoy this.

What?

Why are you being so off with this?

Look, I'm busy. Can it wait?

If you want it to.

No skin off my nose.

But it was just amazing.

Just a holder for the first time. See a
little face.

Oh, I'm dead chuffed for you.

Listen, I've got a new camera. I could
take some photos of you and her if you

want. Yeah, yeah. After lunch, I've got
her introduced to Uncle Chalk, haven't

I?

Thanks for coming in at such short
notice.

Not a problem. Later.

Janice, can I leave Mr O 'Leary with
you? He's come in to fix the kitchen

this morning's mishap.

Yeah, of course.

I'm Janice.

Craig.

Is that my tea?

Oh, yeah.

Excuse me, fingers. And it looks like
it's been a bolt a bit, but that was our

delight, that.

Well,

he doesn't know how lucky he is.

I'd pay good money to have my tea made
by someone like you.

I love me.

Gladly.

Lauren, plagiarist extraordinaire,
Andrews.

Not too disappointing.

Use spell check.

Oi!

An improvement.

Structurally abysmal.

Adequate? Oh, dear.

Oh, dear.

I don't even have words for what you've
got, Stevenson. A blindfolded

chimp could have done better.

That big F on the front, it's for fail.

I don't get it. Why would I get an F?

I can't help you with the grill, but the
fire damage is no biggie by the looks

of it. Should be done and dusted by mid
-afternoon.

Right. I thought you'd be first.

You are an angel. Thank you.

So, how long have you been doing this?
Well,

I don't normally, to be honest.

See, it's my company, so I usually run
the business side of things.

Me too.

Plan is to roll out a few more, a few
different places, you know.

Create a little empire.

Don't suppose Mr Byrne mentioned out
about a new grill, did he?

Oh, sorry.

Hey, he's got a business to run. Give
him a break.

Hmm.

Never trust a man who winks all the
time.

One more chance for the secret
playwright to come forward.

Catch you again. It's confiscated. OK?

Someone wrote it.

I'm pretty sure it was one of you lot
because I found it on top of your

homework.

Look, it's an amazing play.

Whoever wrote it should be really proud.

Thanks a lot.

You loved it. What's your problem?

What's yours?

You have been acting weird all day,
haven't you? Forget it. You wouldn't

understand anyway.

Now...

It's time to go.

Is that it?

Another word?

I don't like the term servants.

No. I prefer to think of you more as
skivvies.

And skivvies you will remain until you
have paid back every penny.

Like I said before, we didn't know it
was your money.

Now, I don't normally drive my little
rust bucket in, but today, as luck would

have it, I did.

Inside and out, and be careful with the
right wiper blade.

It's held on with gaffer tape.

It's going to take hundreds of cars to
pay you back, sir.

You can't do this to us.

Phone.

Now, remind me, the police, all the
nines?

All right, sir.

We get the picture.

Can't wait for book club in English,
sir. What?

The movie with Casterbridge wasn't as
bad as I thought it'd be.

Oh, pleased to hear it.

But this week's book is Mary Shelley's
Frankenstein.

She changed it.

You should have checked the notice
board.

Never mind. We've still plenty of time.

Don't know what you're smiling at.

Given the speed you read.

You've written plays before?

I've done some short stories. And I've
got another idea for a play, but it's

probably a bit rubbish.

Hey, don't be so hard on yourself.

Come on, you've got real talent.

You think?

Right, if you don't believe me, what
about we do a read -through of it in

Club at lunchtime? Everyone will think
I'm a loser.

It's only Drama Club. They won't give
you a hard time. I don't want my dad

finding out.

Why? He won't get it.

He doesn't get anything.

Well, I used to think that about my dad,
but... It's different.

In what way?

It's like we don't connect.

Mate, of course you're connected. He's
your dad.

It's like Martha and I. She's my flesh
and blood.

But what if you found out she wasn't
really yours?

You know, biologically.

Would it make a difference?

Well, yeah, I guess it would.

Why?

I don't think he's my real dad.

We're nothing alike.

He's never interested in stuff that I
do. He prefers my sister. And I'm the

one in my family with ginger hair.

If you're worried about it, you should
talk to him. No way.

What else are you going to do? Go and
see a thigh and start doing DNA tests?

Just speak to him.

I bet you it's all in your head.

So, what about the read -through?

Um, yeah, okay.

I suppose I don't mind. Yeah?

Fantastic.

Check out Mr. Budgin's banging tunes.

We've got Barry Manilow, Elaine Page,

Babs Driver.

Oh, wait for it, wait for it. It's only
a bit of Westlife.

Westlife. No way, man.

Yes, sir.

Oh, men.

What are you doing?

Perfect job, innit?

It doesn't matter.

Is it? Got time to clean one more?

Of course, sir.

Whose idea was this?

Mr. Budgin's.

Where are the proceeds going?

I'm not sure, you know. I think it's
Children's Office, innit?

Oh, right.

Keep up the good work.

OK, OK.

100.

Why did he give you all that?

I'm doing a paternity test.

I don't think Dad's my real dad.

You what?

We're too different to be related.

Just because you're not that alike?

We're nothing alike.

He's sporty, confident, and he hasn't
got ginger hair.

You're crazy.

How are you going to do a DNA test
without someone knowing?

Pluck a hair from the back of his head
when he's not looking.

You do know this is a waste of time and
money, don't you?

Fine.

Do you want me to go with you?

No, I'll be okay.

I'll be okay. Stop stressing about it,
mate.

You are okay sorting the prefect's
roller?

Yeah.

Where's your brother gone?

He's not answering his mobile.

Maybe he's come to his senses and
realised that he doesn't want to hang

you. You mean the same way him and your
sister don't want to hang out with you?

What? Yeah.

That's why I'm leaving together earlier.

No.

What's up?

I've got to go.

Where are you going?

Catch up.

Scout.

What? Your face.

You're not exactly Brad Pitt, are you?
No, it's all blotchy. And red.

What? Your face.

Oh, my God.

It's blotchy face cream.

The flowers,

the what?

Yeah, Mum loved them. She loved custard
too, but we ain't putting that on her

grave.

It doesn't seem that long, does it?

It's nearly time.

No, no, no. Don't all call out at once.
I can hardly hear myself think.

Come on.

What are the themes running through the
rainbow?

Look at me.

Where did you get that?

Your boot.

It's leaving again.

What is this stuff?

It's burning my skin off.

What are you going to do about it?

I thought we agreed, no tuna in the
office.

Oh, er, yeah, I've no choice.

I need to go shopping.

You all right?

What? What's that smell?

The flouting of the rules is what it is.

Hello, hello. Ah, just the man. Your son
has written a very impressive piece of

drama. I thought we could do a re -throw
of it in Drama Club, yeah?

Zach! Sounds good to me.

Yeah, come and have a listen.

I've got hockey practice.

More important than hearing the first
ever performance of your son's work.

Talk about getting your priorities
right.

Yeah, come on, come cover.

I'd love to come.

Yeah, I'll pop in for a bit.

Great. Didn't realise he was into all
that arty -farty stuff.

Excuse me.

Sorry.

Is that... Yes, it's tuna. Yes, it's...

What do you mean, liquidation?

No, I know what liquidation means.

I want to know how long I've been
selling goods for a dodgy company that

longer exists.

I don't care who I sue, but I'm suing.

I demand to speak to a man in... Well,
what's his number?

On the cot, the Delpro.

What, hello?

Hello? Sounds like it's your problem to
start now. Oh, say, Doctor, what do you

want me to do?

Compensation. All right.

I'll just have to tell Mr Byrne and see
what he thinks of his moonlighting

staff. No.

Looks like we won't have to have any
more cars to wash.

Right. I want five themes written down
by the time I get back.

And aura cosmetics have gone under.

Disappeared. Pull.

You're joking.

Ah, you already knew.

I tried to tell you earlier.

I'm just as angry as you are. Oh, I
doubt that.

It was a scam.

Untested knock -offs from China.

There's nothing we can do.

I assure you there is plenty I can and
will do.

The police are trying to track down
anyone who was involved. We have to lie

not go shouting his mouth off about it.

Police?

What happened?

I'm sorry, I didn't think there would
be... No!

You didn't think?

Oh, no, I don't know how I've got
involved in this.

What have I got to show for it?

I look at dodgy cosmetics, I can't
shift, and I've got a pupil with a red

face threatening to sue me.

Oh, well, thank you very much, Ms Croft.
It's been a pleasure doing business

with you.

Well, at least now it's all over. We
don't have to spend any more time

Every cloud.

You pompous old git.

I'm so sorry. Here, I know you've got
other things on your mind.

A loser called Finn.

No, it's not Finn. It's all he said,
girls, you is. Oh, whatever.

No -one said anything at all this
morning.

Of course we didn't, cos we didn't want
to upset Dad. Oh, shut up, both of you.

Just shut up.

Nice one, Trudy.

Now look what you've done.

Oh, no, I skived.

How are you?

Anniversaries are never easy.

And who told you?

I make it my business to know about
these things.

Are you bearing up? Fine.

What's wrong?

I've messed up.

It's the anniversary of my mum's death
today.

I forgot.

They hate me.

I know, of course they don't.

Well, if Naz had completely shut me
out... Yeah, I expect it from Tarek, but

from her.

Because you won't talk to me. It's all
right, go on.

I don't get it.

Why keep it a secret? I could have
helped you.

Believe it or not, you probably did me a
favour.

What are you talking about?

I'm going travelling.

But thank you.

For what?

For making me leave.

Brilliant!

Well done,

Jack.

You know what I mean? Waterloo Road's
very own Pinter.

Oh, your mum loves reading, so you must
get it from her side.

Yeah, that's what I thought.

Look, Jack, seriously, I'm really proud
of you, mate. I wish I could write

something that could.

Go.

Well, you've obviously got somewhere
more important to be.

Hockey practice, mate. Sorry.

Well, I expected the work to be done by
now. It's not fair on Maggie. She needs

to be using this whole area.

You have no idea how hard it's been for
me without that grill. I've had to

completely change my menu.

And he is as good as useless.

He spends more time on that phone than
he does fixing this mess.

Look, I admit I have been inundated with
work calls all day, but I am 110 % on

it now, I promise.

Is everything OK?

No. I'm sorry, I'm going to have to find
someone more reliable.

Yeah, but we can't find no -one till
tomorrow, so you might as well let me

a bit longer.

Yeah, you won't regret it.

3 .30.

This is mental.

I'm so behind because of all this.

And then, what's going on? I did try.

I'm not back on the drugs again, if
that's what you think.

Is everyone trying to make me pay
because of what happened? Is that why I

marked harder?

What? Being given all this stuff to do,
all the firewood and stuff, I don't know

where all the exits are.

Will you... Do you know how to help
yourself?

Stop moaning.

You want people to treat you normally,
then start behaving normally.

Josh.

Josh!

Smile! Hey!

Oh, got some cracking shots of you,
mate. Oh, thanks.

Oh, she's a corker, that's for sure.

Give that to Mummy.

There we go.

I'm so grateful to you, aren't we?

You've been amazing through all this.

What's wrong?

have a word?

I'll get some coffees.

Another doctor's going to be looking
after Martha.

Why?

Because it's not appropriate anymore.

Because Alex and me are in a
relationship.

I didn't plan for anything to happen.

It just did.

With him?

But I thought... Right.

OK, well... Just got to get my head
round it, that's all.

Matt.

There's something else.

Alex has been offered this post as a
consultant and it's the perfect career

and he can't afford not to take it,
but... we may have to move to Bristol.

You've known him five minutes.

I'm sorry.

I'm not just the mate who provided the
sperm, Rosie.

I'm Martha's dad.

You can't just take her away from me and
start playing happy families with

someone else. You're always going to be
Martha's dad. That's never going to

change. I understand why you're so
angry. This is a private conversation.

But if you care about her, you'll at
least hear her out.

I am reporting you.

I'll get you struck off.

You see how far you get to Bristol then,
shall we?

You're taking advantage of her.

She's vulnerable. Her hormones are all
over the place. She has no idea what

she's doing. I know how I must look, but
it's not like that.

Matt.

Matt.

Look, neither of us expected this.

It just happened.

It's a shame you didn't meet Dr Perfect
earlier, isn't it? Then none of this

would be happening. He could have given
you your baby. I'm so, so sorry. You do

what you like with him, but don't
involve Martha.

You want to move to Bristol? Fine.

I'm keeping my daughter.

was a bit harsh, wasn't it?

Tom, it was generous.

It should have been ungraded.

Why couldn't it have been that bad?

Just go easy on him for a bit, will you?

I can get you a copy if you want.

How

did

Josh seem to you earlier?

Why? No reason.

No, go on, say it.

It came to be out of it.

I just... I wondered if perhaps he'd not
managed to kick it.

I appreciate you trying to help, but
he's my son, and he's fine. He's learned

his lesson. He just needs to be left
alone, all right?

You all right? Yeah, fine.

I was thinking, does Mum have ginger
genes?

I was just wondering why Zach's got red
hair.

Why are you asking me that?

Oh, I've been doing genetics and
biology.

What's going on, Maddie?

Promise you won't kick off.

Promise.

OK.

Zach's doing a DNA test.

He doesn't think you're his real dad.

Do what?

But you can't tell him. He'll kill me.

Why? Well, it's not that big a deal,
right?

I can't believe this.

Where is he?

He wouldn't let me go with him.

Oh, you promised.

I'm sorry, Madeline, but you can't
expect me to ignore this.

What?

Hi, it's Zach. Sorry I can't take your
call right now.

The electrons in the metal ions are
excited to higher energy levels by the

The colour can be used to identify the
elements. So, what metal produces this

colour?

Josh? Which metallic element might this
be?

Trudy?

Sodium. Very good. And how do we refer
to the specific wavelengths of light

produced? Mate, I would have got that.

Kyle Stack would have got that.

Finn? The atomic emission spectrum.

Very good.

So, number two.

What are you doing?

But if you'd been listening, you'd know.
You've got to set the fire alarm off.

Calm down, you big girl. No, put it out.

Moving on.

All right.

She's my daughter, so how can we stop
this?

Ridiculous.

Thanks for nothing.

I'm not going to let him get away with
this.

What are you doing?

I'm going to ring the hospital.

Let them know what Dr Stoneman's been up
to.

Don't do anything when you feel like
this. Why not?

I will get him sacked.

Look, if Rosie loves him, getting him
sacked won't change things.

It'll just make her hate you.

Sorry, are you defending them?

Of course I'm not defending... Just get
out, all right?

I need some space.

Go!

You waiting for a bus here?

What's with all the clock watching?
There's nothing.

Right, OK, everyone, Josh hits the fire,
we can also do as he says.

Come on then, Josh, what are we doing?

Right, we've been together, mate.

There's a fire exit right up there.

Weird.

Josh, what's going on, mate?

What are you doing?

It's okay. I mean, it's okay.

Make your way to the appropriate
assembly points, please. Quick as you

Come on, Finn.

What?

They're not living.

Hang on one second.

What? You don't keep moving.

Criminal.

No, no, I didn't realise.

I'll go to my person for the test.

Sure, great. Well, I'll look forward to
seeing you later then.

Lewis, hurry up.

Come on, keep moving.

Looking good.

What have you done to yourself?

It's not mine.

Well, whose is it?

It's Josh's. What?

He started freaking out, sir. Hitting a
fire alarm when it was already going

off. I wanted to go after him, but...
Oh, man.

Josh?

Josh?

It must be this way.

Josh!

Josh, are you okay?

What are you doing here?

It won't stop.

Can you get the first aid kit?

You're fine.

Why is it all going wrong, Dad?

What? I don't know. Everything.

Today.

Come on, mate. Let's get you sorted.

You'll be okay.

Okay, well done, everyone. You managed
to knock ten minutes off the previous

time.

I did it in two and a half minutes, and
that's a record, I think.

Unfortunately, this won't mean an
earlier finish. I need you all back in

classes as soon as possible. Thank you.

Brantley.

How much did you raise at the car wash?

Scout said it was for the children's
hospital, right?

Did she?

Yeah.

That's right.

Raise much?

Nah.

I can have Janice put it in the safe for
you.

Looks like a lot to me.

Jack, I've been looking for you.

I had a call from a clinic.

There I go.

Something about DNA tests?

What's going on?

There's no way we're related.

Everybody thinks so.

What do you mean, everyone?

Harley, Naz, Maddy.

Maddy? I was talking to Mr. Wilding.

And he said he'd feel different if
Martha wasn't where he is.

So I thought that was maybe why... Mr
Wilding.

Do you know that what you did was
illegal?

I had to cover for you and say that you
had my permission.

Do you realise how much trouble you
could get in?

What even possessed you?

Why didn't you just come to me first?

Those tests cost money.

Where did you get the money from?

I sold my laptop.

I don't believe this, mate.

Everything all right?

Enjoy Medellin, dear.

Come to have another go?

I'm sorry.

Zach has got another DNA test done
because of you.

You know what, you've been a dad for all
of five minutes and now you reckon you

know it all?

No.

But I know I'll never take my child for
granted.

Oh, right. What's that supposed to mean?

He's an amazing kid and you have no
idea.

He has absolutely no self -confidence
because of you. He feels completely

alienated. All I'm trying to do is help
him, to encourage him. Yet the whole

time he's worried about what you think.

What was it you called it earlier?

Arty -farty. Brilliant.

He's no wonder he questions whether
you're his dad.

I would.

What? You can't blame me for being
annoyed.

What are we going to like?

Zach!

You knew it was a test. You didn't need
to panic.

Why did you do it?

Yeah, it's not too bad.

You OK?

What happened?

He just flipped on some glass in his
rush to get out quickly.

I think I was a little too severe at the
fire warden training.

He's fine.

He's doing really well.

Yeah, just a bit shaken, aren't you,
Josh?

Well done on the evacuation.

Whatever your methods, they obviously
worked.

And you take it easy, okay?

Thank you.

I did it for Josh.

Okay?

Got a second?

You need to get him to a GP as soon as
possible.

But it's just a bit wobbly.

Do you not think you need to talk to
someone?

Think about what he's done, OK?

It's not normal behaviour.

Just take him to a GP and see what they
say.

Why don't you just stick to basic first
aid and leave the psychology to the

people that know what they're talking
about?

I was just about to call you.

Alex feels terrible.

Alex feels terrible.

He didn't want to make things worse
today.

Matt, I know this sounds really awful
now, but in a way, I thought you'd be a

bit relieved.

That you were taking my daughter to the
other side of the country?

Why is that?

Remember how hard it was for me to talk
you into all this? Even when I was

pregnant, I knew you were worried.

It's different now.

Martha's here.

I love her.

I've cuddled her.

And I want to be able to cuddle her
every day.

Not just once a month or whatever it
will be.

And that's why Alex made me come. He
wants you to know he's going to do

everything he can now to get work as
close to Rochdale as possible.

He doesn't want to take Martha away from
you.

Neither do I.

I

don't

want you to be lonely.

If you want me to call it off with him,
I will.

You're my friend and I made a commitment
to you first.

I'm not going to ruin your chance at
happiness, darling.

So, what is the main theme, Zack?

I haven't read it.

The theme.

Maybe it would be quicker to ask if
anyone has actually read it.

Really?

I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Well... I think it's loneliness what
makes a monster do what he does,

when he realises even Frankenstein hates
him.

Hmm.

An example?

Or have you just swallowed a section of
the book notes?

Erm, well, that bit where he says
something about everyone thinking he was

horrible, especially the bloke who made
him.

That's when I started feeling really
sorry for him.

Mm -hm.

I know the section.

Page... Page 83.

Go on, then.

Read it aloud.

All men hate the...

Wretched. How,

then, must I...

How have you managed to read a whole
book in a day when you can barely manage

two sentences?

I listen to an audio book.

I'm the only one who made an effort, and
still you're giving me a hard time.

Oh, sit down, Harley.

You know, you have an impressive grasp
of the narrative.

With a little help with the reading, you
could get a lot out of Book Club.

Really?

You're going to help me?

I suppose I could give you some extra
tuition.

That would be great.

Nice. You all right?

Not you as well. I'm fine.

Trudy feels really bad.

She should.

Just imagine how you'd feel if you'd
forgotten.

I know how you feel, you know.

Your mum died too, did she?

Her girlfriend did.

I forgot.

It's not the same, though.

No, you're right.

But I do know what it feels like to want
to share stuff with someone who's not

there anymore.

Goodbye.

Shh,

quick, quick, she's coming.

Ta -da!

A, uh, small something to say sorry for
being under your feet all day.

Mr Byrne agreed to this?

Uh, no.

It's a present from me to you.

What's the catch?

A mate of mine owed me a favour.

Honest.

What the hell? I love it.

Hey, what's up?

I'm out.

It's just one of them days.

Thanks.

Well, I don't know about you, but I
ain't half way to the first.

Oh, well, I'd love to go for a drink,
but I can't. I've got to...

Well, I didn't mean that.

Oh, sorry.

It was nice meeting you.

Yeah.

All right? Yeah.

Look, Jeff, I was trying to help Zach as
a teacher. I didn't mean to criticise

what you do.

It was a bit late for that. The damage
has been done.

I'm sorry.

It's a DNA test.

It's hardly the end of the world, is it?

Well, we'll have to wait and see.

You're not sure that he's yours?

I don't know.

We separated for a month or two just
before she got pregnant and I was away a

lot. I mean, I had the odd niggle,
but... All my grandad had red hair

I managed to reassure myself with that.

That's what happens now.

I'm going to go and meet Jack and then
we're going to wait for the call.

That'll pull out.

Say that you don't give her permission.

How's that going to make Jack feel?

It's just going to make him more
suspicious.

No, I'm just going to have to go through
with it and know that I'm worrying

about nothing.

Right. Whatever happens, whatever the
results,

you can't erase 14 years just like that.

What if he's not mine?

Who knows what he'll do?

I just wish I had more time to put
things straight.

I'd better go and find out.

I don't understand.

I thought I'd start feeling more normal
after I quit.

You really haven't been smoking?

Josh!

How's the hand, mate?

Nothing too serious. Just enough to get
him out of washing up for a while.

Sorry, Finn, we're in a bit of a rush,
mate.

Yeah, no worry.

I don't get it, Doug.

Well, we should go to the doctors.

Why? Find out why you're feeling like
this, why you feel so anxious.

I don't get what I've done wrong.

Well, just get it checked out. Yeah.

Don't worry, I paid over the odds for
it.

It's not going to give you any trouble.

Mum's told you?

Yeah.

But under duress.

She's very loyal, that sister of yours,
you know.

Thanks.

How else are you going to write your
school winning script, eh?

Listen, if you want me to read stuff
that you write, I'd love to. You don't

to. I want to.

And I'm glad that we're different.

I don't want you to change.

So I want you to know that whatever the
results are, I love you for who you

are.

I mean, we're the A -team, you and me,
right?

Hello?

Yeah, yeah, I'm Jeremy Diamond.

OK. Go for it.

Yeah. Thanks.

Yeah, thanks very much.

Bye.

Are you pleased?

What do you think?

Oh, just perfect.

I'll be glad when today's over, too.

I shouldn't have shouted at you earlier.
It wasn't your fault.

Is that an apology?

I'm gutted, too.

We went in to make money and we came out
in debt.

We had some fun, I suppose.

I suppose.

For takings from the car washing.

I explained it all to Mr. Byrne, that
you needed the money for Fleur.

Big subsidy, after all.

Was everything okay?

Oh, not really.

Fleur's not well. They called the
doctor.

Pneumonia.

I'm so sorry.

If there's anything I can do... Would
you stop to think?

Careful.

What's the matter with you?

Craig, I've been playing with him all
day. I asked him to go for a drink and

blew me right out.

Oh, I'm sorry, Jenny.

Please. He won.

That young man asked me to give you
this.

Thank you.

What for?

For hiring the man of my dreams.

Good night, all.

But the fire alarm was going off, so why
did you smash the glass?

Josh.

You seem a bit on edge.

Is everything OK?

What do you mean?

Good, I'd mentioned you hadn't been
quite yourself.

I just feel like everything's a lot
harder.

Like it's a lot more difficult.

Why do you think that is?

What? How long have you been feeling
like this?

I don't want you to worry, but I'm going
to refer you to a psychiatrist.

Just so you can speak to someone about
any problems.

You'll receive a letter soon with an
appointment.

And please, try not to worry.

Okay?

Let me just stand way outside for a
minute.

Could I have a quick word?

I know you're not a psychiatrist.

I just want to know what you're
thinking.

I can tell you're thinking something.

I'm very reticent to see anything.

I just want to prepare myself. I promise
I won't hold you to anything that stays

within these four walls.

Please.

Well, I'm no expert, but I'd say he's
displaying symptoms of a psychotic

breakdown.

What does that mean?

It could be a one -off.

If it were to keep happening, it could
mean it's schizophrenia.

But please don't worry till you see
someone who knows what they're talking

about.

Thank you for your time.

No problem.

Come on, let's get you home.

She doesn't recognise me.

She looks straight through me most of
the time. He's a bright kid, and it's

fair for him to be kept in the dark
about this.

Go on, be with your wife.

He's tendering his resignation.

Oh, Josh! I think we've lost Granley.
What about the paper?

The ones you've got to be finished by?
Three o 'clock this afternoon.

You can give your article to Zach to
start formatting, please.

There is no article.

This is a disaster.
