All language subtitles for Waterloo Road s08e03

What happened to you? They've got your
love.

I'm trying to help you. I can't do
anything.

And I just wonder why I'm trying.

What's the point? None of you should
tell me why.

How come this happened to me?

Mum!

Mum, what have you done?

No, Mum!

Get back here!

Have what?

Someone home can be done to. All those
ghosts waiting for me. Oh, I don't

believe in ghosts.

Thanks for not reporting this to the
police.

My boss doesn't agree.

Michael Bunn and the police don't mix so
well.

Paddy, what are you doing here?

Climb that mountain. A guide to
overcoming personal adversity.

Oi!

Come back!

Would you mind not screaming like a
banshee first thing in the morning?

sir.

Me?

On second thoughts, don't answer that.
I'm stuck.

What do you mean, you're stuck?

Get budging, will you?

Mr Budging, Tarek's stuck in the
bathroom.

Oh, this is not what I signed up for.

One, two, three.

One, two, three.

Nice one, Starsky.

My pleasure, Tarek. Don't mention it.
The door's going to need a new lock.

I'm sorry.

Do you want assistance?

What do you think? Yeah, well, just...
Come on.

I can't get out of the bath. How am I
going to manage a kayak?

You're going to be late.

I've plenty of time yet.

No, you don't. It goes over 20 minutes.
We've already told you this.

Stop hassling me.

What's this?

There's no milk, by the way. Or cereal.

Well, I must have finished it last
night. I have some toast or something.

You said you'd go shopping.

I will.

Later. Managed to get to the office, all
right.

I am not here to skibby round you.

Do you know what? I can't do this
anymore.

This isn't a life.

What do you mean?

Moving out.

You said you could borrow that?

I didn't think you'd mind.

You know what?

Keep it.

Serious?

I'll take the fighting games too.

I'll come.

I'm all about my kayaking now.

I don't know what to say.

Thanks. You ain't going to beat those
scores anyway.

You've been necking steroids, you.

If I fail this trial, they'll never let
me back in the water.

Appreciate you pulling strings.

Straight A's this time.

Oh, really?

What, like all that studying you were
doing last week? I was acclimatising.

Yeah, it's been a lot better.

Gladdy, welcome.

I hope you'll be very happy here.

Thank you. And, you know, maybe some
time apart will do you and your mum some

good.

Mum's the problem, not me.

Shall I tell you around?

I'll be fine.

Well, now I remember what a confident
young lady she is.

Yeah. It's no wonder she clashed with
her mum. What's her mother saying about

her coming to live with you?

I wouldn't know.

She put the phone down on me.

Mothers and daughters, eh?

What about Jez?

What's he think?

Not much.

I haven't been able to get in touch with
him yet.

Well, I think you're doing the right
thing for now, anyway.

Morning. Morning, Tom.

Microfilm. There's a blast from the
past.

Local history project. The decline of
Greenock's shipping industry.

My great -great -grandfather was in the
Navy, reputed to have served under

Nelson. Moaning about the weevils in the
biscuits, no doubt.

Were it Daniel, you could stand your
spoon up in that.

Morning, Camper.

Did you get my boy's mail?

Yeah, I did. I don't think I can make it
tonight.

Go on. It'll be a right laugh. Five
-star hotel, few local celebs. What's

Charity auction tonight. I need a plus
one.

Never know, might even bag yourself a
footballer. What, another one?

I really don't know. I quite fancy
myself as a wack.

No, but we could bust it. Come on.

A bit light on the old grey matter.

Match made in heaven, if you ask me.

You know what?

I will come.

Right answer.

Morning. Morning.

Mind if I use your office?

Yeah, be my guest. Morning, all. Hey.

Good weekend.

Mine consisted of two water bombs, three
nuisance calls and dog excretia through

the letterbox.

Those ad -block kids are really going to
town on you. The question is, what do

you intend to do about it? Well, this
would all have been resolved if you

barged into my meeting with Findlay last
week.

Now, other news. Cindy's off sick.
Stomach bug. Oh, really?

What about Harriet?

She was due to take him to his coyote
trial this afternoon.

I'll take him. Good man. Last thing
Tarek needs is a good confidence note.

Mr Finlay, do we owe this a pleasure?

35 students filed as requested.

I don't think there was any need to
bring them over here personally. The

government pays seven grand for people.

So that's what?

Nearly 250 grand that he has robbed out
of Mattel. We offered the community an

alternative and they voted with their
feet.

And who can blame them, frankly? You
know, you always wear an old windbag. I

think you'd better leave.

Oh, don't worry.

Michael doesn't need a bodyguard.

He's more than capable of handling
himself.

Ten seconds to get out of here and I'm
calling the police. I'm sure they'll be

delighted to hear from you. Be like old
times, eh?

Tom, would you mind escorting Mr.
Findlay off the premises, please? With

pleasure.

What's all that about?

Who knows?

Well, I think there's about five of
them.

So? So, five of them, five of us.

Rough chill.

You care.

It's all geography.

Did Rhiannon get a good look at them?

And what's it for you?

I used to go to Havelock.

I could put some names to faces.

Should it all happen too fast?

Hello, stranger.

Maddy, you all right?

What are you doing here?

My mum is getting on my nerves.

Lady doesn't call me close.

What, so you decided you'd drop her if
she moved 200 miles up north?

I know what they say. Change is as good
as a rest.

Why are you getting into your own, then?
You obviously did the dirty on him.

Excuse me, Tareks.

Not going to say hello?

Oh, my God, Tariq. It's all right.

No point pretending.

So, um, does everything still work
downstairs?

Maddy, why don't you sit on my lap and
find out?

Say more to it.

Oi, aren't you going to introduce us,
then?

Can't remember his name.

Angus.

Go.

Maddy.

Right, well, you can show me where my
uniform is, then.

For you.

For the cinema ticket?

Didn't miss much.

Paranormal activities were better.

Maybe we could go another time.

Be later then.

Found anywhere yet?

Early days.

There's a homeless hostel down the road
if you're stuck.

Excuse me. Yes, Peter.

Do you have any rooms in the
schoolhouse?

Angus. Could you hand these out for me,
please?

OK.

How about what Maddy said about... You
know, it's just her way.

Are you making excuses for her?

I'm not.

So why say anything?

Feeling sorry for me, is that it?

No.

Well, I don't need your pity, fam. You
get me?

I thought I might...

Tag along to try us this afternoon?

No, thanks.

Well, why not?

We should all come and watch you.

A bit of moral support from your mates
is exactly what you need.

Look, I don't want you chatting Breeze
about climbing up mountains and all that

psycho babble. It'll just put me off my
game.

Tarek, seeing as though you're so
chatty, why don't you start us off?

What does Holden Caulfield's red hat
tell us about him?

He's got about as much dress sense as
you, sir.

You'll hear this.

Sir, there's not enough to go around.

Tarek, why don't you make yourself
useful? Go and get the rest from the

Anybody else?

No, no, no.

Believe it or not, these were the memory
sticks of their day.

Imogen, what did I just say?

Sorry, miss.

Now, these bits of plastic contain
hundreds of local newspaper articles.

OK? Now, all you have to do...

is wind the film across the glass plate,
et voila.

Now, into groups. Find as many articles
as you can from 1985 that illustrate

the impact of the shipyard closures on
the area.

You want to team up?

Come on, you're not with me.

Every little thing I know.

Every little thing I know.

Every little thing I know.

So how come you're Billy Nell, mate?

Thank you, thanks.

Right. I'll join the back of the queue.

Most of them are my old school.

So you're, um...

Beddling in okay?

Fine. Good.

Will you be all right if I nip out
tonight?

Ooh, a hot date.

Miss Donegan has invited me to be her
plus one at a charity do. But I'll cook

you something before I go. Look, I'm
perfectly capable of roasting up a bowl

pasta. You sure?

Trust me.

Good. All right.

Tom seemed pretty adamant that he wanted
to move in. Well, that's Connor for

you. An Oscar winner in the making.

Hostage to the hormones.

I find one tough going.

How do you manage 16?

Ears to listen, arms to hug, and a hide
like a rhino.

Good advice.

I'll leave it with you, then.

Yep.

Ah.

The very man.

Not now.

These attacks on the schoolhouse.

Something needs to be done.

You're making a mountain out of a
molehill. And that's it, is it?

For some total of your advice, suffer in
silence. If you can't put up with a bit

of hijinks, then maybe I should start
looking for someone else who can. Is

clear? Oh, crystal.

Back again, Mr Finlay? You get my
voicemail?

Oh, I haven't had a chance to get back
to you.

Have a look at that.

Paper gold.

It took me ages to find that in the
library.

Attempted murder?

Not what you call a shining example to
the pupils, eh?

You could stick up a few of these around
the school.

Me? Well, save me a job.

Fifth columnist.

Sayonara, Mr Bun.

Ah, if I got caught, he'd sack me. It's
too risky.

What are you, a man or a mouse? Come on!

This is your chance to pull the rug.

I'm sorry.

I won't tell if you do.

I don't know how I'm going to read
Catcher in the Rye by Sly Day. That's

the internet's for.

Or you could come round mine tonight.

Maybe give me a crash course.

We've got free house.

I know.

Hey, you lot.

Maddy's got free house tonight.

He's up for a party.

What? Come on, it'll be fun. I can get
to know your mates. Do you have cable

Of course. It's a crappy match tonight.

I'll see your foot in one then, yeah?

Gunners through and through.

No one's watching football.

Find a pub.

It's changed.

Strip poker's not as much fun when it's
just the girls.

Ah, well, I mean, we could also watch
the highlights, I guess.

I knew it would work.

Who are you?

Who are you at the schoolhouse this
morning?

It wasn't my idea.

Hey, Phoenix, guess what?

What's that?

Oh, my God.

You have it.

Tarrick's gone and wet himself.

The kind of human snail trail.

Oink. Leave it, yeah?

Snail trail, that's a good one.

You might as well call me the urinator.

I'll be cock.

Bet you're glad you didn't sit on his
lap now, eh? Why are you being such a

jerk?

You OK, pal? I'm fine.

Does it matter anymore?

Connor!

Connor, please!

Let's not fight.

You started it, like you always do.

I know what I'm doing.

After everything I've done for you, you
could have been burnt to a crisp if it

wasn't for me.

I'll always be grateful.

You've got a funny way of showing it.

To be honest, I'm still trying to get my
head round it.

I don't know what I'd have done if
anything had happened to you.

Mum, don't.

If I was a wake -up call, I would change
this time, I promise.

Like the last time, and the time before
that.

You know our trouble.

We're too similar.

That's horrid for you, eh?

Building a china shop.

You don't still buy into all that, do
you?

Do you remember when you used to read
out our horoscopes every morning?

That was ages ago. It was like ten or
something.

You're still my little boy.

Mum.

It's just been so stressful lately, you
know, my new job, the fire. We just need

to spend a bit more time together.

I tell you what, this weekend, you and
me... We go walking in the hills, we

could take our catchpads.

Okay. Yeah?

Okay.

Great.

Work, you stupid.

Trudy.

How's Canada?

Hope the hotel's not working you too
hard.

I got the pictures.

You and Finn look happy.

Really happy.

I'm glad.

Really glad.

Thing is, I can't come to see you.

But I couldn't not speak to you.

Make you understand.

Dad doesn't come to the phone.

And Naz, she's too young.

Thing is, I'm moving on myself.

I can't live like this, you get me?

You can rob a man of everything, except
his pride.

Look after Dad and Nath, yeah?

I love you.

Are you going to be long? I've got an
assignment to finish.

Ah, it's all yours.

What can I get you?

Just a joke, please.

You patch things up with your mum?

Sort of, I guess.

I'm glad.

It's probably better you stay living at
home for now.

Have you spoken to her?

After I've spoken to you.

I should have known.

That old cow's got me hook, line and
sinker. That's no way to talk about.

ma 'am.

Why can't you just keep your beak out of
everyone else's business?

You think I'd let you in schoolhouse
with an attitude like that?

Why could I let a stupid old cow like
you anyway?

Pick them up.

Now.

Verbally abusing a member of staff will
not be tolerated. It doesn't matter how

great it is.

Actually, I'm not sure detention's going
to solve Connor's problems.

What? I've chalked up enough years to
know when a child's having difficulties

home.

I'll have a word with Christy.

Are you OK?

Seconds out, round two.

What did you say?

Is it true, sir?

Is this really you?

Where did you get that?

It's on all the Lotus boards. One of my
U12s must have burned it on the

microphone. I am so sorry.

Well, is there a problem here?

You love it more like. That's in the
third time this month.

Well, Tara and me may have a mutual
interest in tutti -frutti ice cream,

true.

Sean? Have you seen this?

No. They're all over the school.

Do you know anything about it?

No, I didn't.

Watch it.

Don't use that.

What's up?

It's Terry giving a write -on to me.

I mean, what have I done now?

I've been getting a little bit my head
off this morning.

What for?

I'm in this PSP.

I mean, this went all night and I
thought I could have it.

What, for keeps?

Yeah. It's worth over a hundred quid.
You know, it's well good.

Hey, guess what?

We've got a spy in the camp.

What are you on about?

Gus Hancock.

He was the guy in the hoodie this
morning.

What, are you sure?

I saw it in his bag break time.

I'm going to deck him the next time I
see him.

What, and get an exclusion?

No, that's it.

After what he said to Tarek?

So, mate, you are.

I've done a sweep of the notice board,
but there's nothing I could find.

How is the moon in the staff room?

Shocked, obviously.

But not half as shocked as me.

Look, Sian... You blatantly lied to me.

You told me you and your dad fell out
over some Christmas argument.

Well, it's not something I wanted to
broadcast.

Why did you do it?

I had my reasons.

Is that all I'm going to get?

Some things are private.

Finlay really did a number on me, didn't
he?

I don't even know it was him.

Well, if it wasn't Finlay, then who?

I don't know.

He seemed to have a habit of making
enemies.

Best to look with a trowel, by the way.

Don't you worry. You'll walk it.

Thanks, sir. Can't wait.

Tony!

Tony.

Tell him what?

He's going about Angus.

No, this is my mate.

Who are you, Tony Soprano?

Look, I don't need you fronting up for
me.

I tread my own path.

But he's at the schoolhouse.

Who cares?

Life's too short.

Excuse me, Terry.

Oh, what?

Come on.

I won't buy it.

I'm sorry for what I did the other week.

I don't believe God is punishing you.

I'm sure it's all part of his plan for
you. Plan?

What plan?

It don't exist.

You don't know what you're saying.

Go bash your Bible somewhere else, yeah?
What room?

Since when did you stop believing in
God? What's the big deal? Changed my

didn't it?

He's probably just nervous for these
trousers this afternoon.

Yeah, well, I don't have to go and cheer
him on. Yeah, we should.

Maybe we could take your mind off of it?
We'll all come and cheer you on. Great

idea. Why don't you just back off, yeah?

Dad, can I have a word?

What about Tariq?

I don't know. He's acting all weird.
It's like he's... He's disconnected from

everyone.

Everything. Doesn't he want to do the
kayaking? No, it's all they ever talked

about. Well, that's called focus.

Knock, knock.

As requested, your computer is now
unlocked.

Jockey, you're a genius.

I gave your registry files a quick
sprinkling while I was at it. You'd be

bringing down a pentagon, Nick.

What's my new password, by the way?

Muppet1. Thanks, mate.

Capital M.

Come on, you'll be late for your next
lesson.

Now, this is serious.

Look, I'm sure Tarek appreciates you
looking out for him, but what?

Well, don't you think we should loosen
the reins a little bit?

Forget about it.

Josh!

Sorry.

Sorry. Wait up.

The trials, they won't come to you.

See you smash it.

Thought you had a big fight to get to.

No, like you said, life's too short.

Is it?

Are you just too scared you're going to
get your arse whooped?

As if.

Prove it.

After all, he did this, mate.

Go and show them have luck, not use
both.

What are you doing?

Nothing, mate.

Heads office, now!

Can I have a word?

Problem?

Pray so.

It's gone.

Oh, yeah?

I caught him pinning this up in the
corridor. It's in Michael's office now.

Where did he get this?

I think he must have found the articles
amongst the microfilm in my local

history class.

Great. Just great.

Christine, I can only imagine, but
bringing up a young man on your own, it

be so hard.

How would you know?

Hancock.

Yeah?

You better be on top of your game, lad.

Phoenix is raging about what you did
this morning.

He's got you in his crosshairs. That
moron. I could take him any day.

It ain't just Phoenix.

They're planning their own little fox
hunt.

Tonight after school.

And if I were you, I'd get some back up.

Let me see. I am mortified. Don't worry.

Take a seat.

Whatever punishment you see fit, I will
back you all the way.

Well, actually, I wanted to talk about
Connor more generally.

It's been brought to my attention
that...

I'm not quite sure how to say this.

I know what you're going to say.

Do you?

Strictly between you and me?

Mm -hm.

Connor is a very troubled child.

It does seem that way, yes.

He doesn't make friends easily, he
isolates himself.

You any idea why that might be?

I think in his own muddled way, he
resents me for divorcing his dad.

How do you mean?

I stabbed him as a role model.

Connor craves attention.

Maybe this is his way of getting yours.

Me? I don't know what to say. I mean, he
really looks up to you.

Right, I see.

It's awkward, I know, but if you could
just single him out for a bit of praise

now and then, I know it would really
help.

Right, well, don't worry. I'll keep an
eye on him.

Thanks.

Don't even think about it.

Phoenix, the hard man.

Shame you couldn't handle me one -on
-one. What are you on about?

You lot.

Plans to hang up on me.

Only I've gone and called a few of my
mates.

Even things up a bit.

What are you talking about?

Don't act like you don't know.

Tarek told me everything.

Four o 'clock.

Behind the old tech lock.

I'll see you there.

I thought Tarek didn't want any trouble.

I'm going to need more people.

I can only apologise again, Michael. I
should have made sure all those

microfiche were tied.

Look, don't worry, Audrey. Not your
fault.

So did you suspend him?

Lunchtime detention.

Seems a little light.

Well, if I don't make a big deal out of
it, then hopefully the kids won't.

Ah, Mr Bird, I was sorry to read about
your father.

I hope he's recovered sufficiently.

Yeah, he's fine, Bradley.

Thanks for the concern.

Why, what's happened?

Well, it appears Michael here is...

Somewhat of a pugilist.

Arrested for attempted murder, if you
don't mind.

A long time ago, one of the kids found
an old newspaper article and put it up

all over the school.

Who? Colonel Grew.

Christine's boy?

No, Audrey caught him red -handed and
then into the notice board.

Well, I hope you won't be too harsh on
him.

It was obviously a prank that misfired
and, well, there are worse things that

you can do.

Oh, it's true.

You did try to kill your dad.

No, that isn't quite what happened. And
for the record, my father refused to

press charges.

The damage is done, though. An indelible
stain on the character.

Big fight!

You!

I played for you. Cooler, no.

What happened to the live cue shot?

What? Arranging that fight? Oh, very
smart.

Don't worry, I'll be there. You know,
just because you're in a wheelchair

doesn't give you the right to act like a
numpty.

Oi, Harley.

Do us a favour.

Make sure Josh gets this after school,
yeah?

Tarek, are you upset?

Yeah.

Harley.

Look after yourself, yeah?

What are you in for?

Food fight, sir.

Food fight?

Take a seat.

I thought you might be hungry, so...
Hold on.

You get into detention to give me these?

A bunch of times they're overrated
anyway.

I thought you weren't interested.

Shh!

You'd be quiet, please.

Be careful.

It's held together by plastic.

I melted a bento.

It's beautiful.

Right, that's it. Come on. Down the
front.

What with you, Grant, he is.

You're rather predictable.

Beg pardon?

You, in the canteen defending Connor
like that, normally you'd string him up

his shoelaces.

Don't know what you mean.

And guess what I found.

Or rather, what I didn't find.

That article didn't come from my local
history class, did it? I hope you're not

insinuating I'm involved.

I'm not insinuating at all.

I'm openly accusing you. I had nothing
to do with it.

Nothing. Maybe I should discuss it with
Michael, see what he has to say.

About what?

Really no one.

Nothing but conjecture and hate.

The ones are clean.

I do hope so, Grantley, because it would
be a terrible shame to have to let you

go.

Especially as you're so near to
retirement.

It was merely a witness.

Who?

Gerard, Emily.

Josh. What?

I came here to give you this.

Is that a tarot chain?

I gave it me to give to Josh.

Thanks for being a good mate.

No way.

Best look after that.

Why is he giving all his stuff away? It
don't make sense.

Oh, my God.

What?

You worry about this all the time, don't
you?

People getting ready, packing their
things up.

What are you talking about?

I saw him before sending an email.

He did look a bit upset.

Sir,

you're good with computers, aren't you?

Why? I need you to hack into Derek's
email account.

I think he's going to harm himself.

Hacking? You can't do that to a private
email account.

Oh, yeah.

And how will that sound at an inquest?

Which terminal was he at?

Well, I wonder what your board of
governors would say.

What are you doing here?

I knew you wouldn't meet me if I phoned,
so I made Granley do it.

Stylist Goon set me up.

Not nice, is it?

The parents have got a right to know.

You're a dangerous man who shouldn't be
allowed anywhere near their kids. I'm

sorry that Havelock has suffered since
we opened our doors, but we both want

same thing. We both care passionately
about education.

Oh, spare me this throwing -bys.

This isn't about them.

This is about you.

You and your over -inflated ego. And I
found the pin. Look, you can spin that

all you like. It was a one -off. Yeah,
that's what your dad said.

Oh, the old shipyard boys still make the
pilgrimage to my local.

What was he said?

Far be it from me to betray a
confidence.

No, there's no currency to be made here.
I quit while you're ahead.

Or what?

You going to dip me up?

Show us your true colours.

This is childish.

Oh, I get it, yeah. Yeah, you're a
lover, not a fighter.

Must take after your mum, then.

Beg your pardon?

Couldn't keep her knickers on, according
to your dad.

Nice try.

What, you think I'm going to walk right
into that one?

Come on.

Show us your true colours.

I'm leaving.

That's used to a tea, isn't it?

Care more about your ploughmans than
your pupils.

Santa Monica!

You mind how you go?

Daniel?

It's not your turn for ages yet.

Well, I'll get used to being in the
water. Get a feel for it.

Could have sworn I've just heard my
phone ring.

I think you left it in the car, did I?

You'll be all right on your own?

Yeah. That'll be two minutes.

I hope you're proud of yourself. I hope
you're not afraid to pop yourself.

Yeah, right.

Why would you talk about that? He's our
mate.

And it's all your fault.

I didn't mean those things.

It was meant to be a laugh.

You know, we'll see who's laughing
later, won't we? Why won't we?

Let's just do an earring now.

Hey.

Come on, you lot.

Lessons. Any words?

Not yet, but you'll be fine. We'll see.

You can't pin this on me.

I don't get it. Daniel says he's seen
the video message that he made for his

sister. He seemed fine to me.

What's he doing out there on his own?

Tarek!

Tarek!

Keep an eye on him. I'll get some help.

God, can we hurry up, please?

Get off me! Get off me!

Get off me! Get off me!

Can you call Janice?

I think we should inform Ed's side.

Sure.

How long have you felt like this?

Have you spoken to anyone about it?

Come on, talk to me, Tarek.

I really want to help you.

Then you should have let me die.

Yeah, so x plus 2 equals 3 plus x, 6
brackets, x plus 2 squared, close

equals 3x plus 6.

This, of course, is an example of an
equation, because the equality only...

Go on, sir.

It'll be about Tariq.

What does it say, sir?

Tarek's OK.

So, if we substitute the X for a 1 on
the left -hand side here,

what does that make it? Any ideas?

You know, talking's usually the first
step towards recovery.

You shrink now?

No.

But I know it works.

Talking ain't gonna make me walk again.

This chair.

Prison with wheels.

A life sentence.

Doesn't have to be that way.

You ain't sat here looking up at the
world.

People talking over you like you're
invisible or something.

It's not your fault.

Then why am I made to feel like it?

I didn't want this.

Maybe Lula's right.

This isn't about fate or karma or any of
that crap. It

was just a dreadful, dreadful accident,
Tarek.

It doesn't change the fact that I'm in
here.

My mates used to give me props.

I was the man.

I had respect.

And now, I pee myself.

But there are people who care about you.

Your friends, they care about you.

They feel sorry for me.

There's a difference.

Why not?

I've had enough of you at Kowindu. Don't
want to get involved.

But you are involved. It's your school
as well. I'm sorry, yeah.

That's it.

Five of you.

It's nice to talk to you as well.

I'll see you, Sean.

So, do you want us to bring anything for
tonight?

I was thinking of postponing it. Oh,
here comes your excuses.

Shut up, you.

All right, come round at eight.

Sean will be long gone by then.

Maddy, can I have a word, please?

It's not always about other people.

None of us are hostages to life.

We can choose the way that we live it.

Like you'd know.

Well, I've had my fair share of ups and
downs. I left home when I was 16.

What happened?

Drifted about.

Got mixed up with the wrong crowd.

Stayed angry with the world.

What changed?

Well, for me, it was picking up a book.

Just made me realise there was a whole
world out there for the taking.

It means nothing if you're on your own.

You're not on your own.

My dad doesn't talk to me.

And Trudy, she's on the other side of
the world.

Where's that leave me?

Not alone.

Do you not see that your friends would
be devastated if you weren't around?

And all of us teachers as well.

So let's get through this thing
together.

Yeah?

But I thought we were mates.

Well, you're under my roof, you're under
my supervision.

Is that clear? What? Is that clear?

Yes. So what about the party? There's no
party.

We can't cancel.

My street cred will be on the floor.

Maddy. Please.

You were the new girl once.

All right, fine.

But I will be upstairs. And if the
school nights have gone by nine... No

Take it or leave it.

You won't tell my mates?

Well, they'll have seen the webcam
message.

They're going to think I'm weak.

No, they won't.

I think we'll be giving this a miss.

No. Bring it on.

Tarek, that's not a good idea.

I don't want to go back.

I want to do the trial.

Will you just give us one minute?

Are you sure about this?

100%. You can't be serious.

Look, it's too soon.

Will he be accompanied this time?

He's in no fit state.

Well, maybe we should let Tarek make
that decision.

I'm okay.

I want to do this.

You haven't got anything to prove to
anyone.

Doing this for me?

Tarek's strong.

He can do this.

We just need to get by this chance.

Well, it's your neck on the line.

What are we waiting for?

How's he doing?

Oh, all things considered, not bad.

How'd you get on with Ed's hike?

She can put him in this afternoon.

Tom, did you have any idea that he felt
that way?

Not a clue.

We really don't know what people are
capable of.

Oh, Sian, you can't back out on me now.
I'm so sorry. I have to babysit a group

of year 13s, so... Well, I'll come if
you like.

You? Why, I'm house -trained and I
haven't had the chance to go out in

Why not?

How's it going?

Lucky to be here. Your job makes it so
understanding.

Don't be too hard on him.

Thanks for the parenting advice, but I
don't need it.

What are you doing tonight?

Well, I don't think I've got anything in
my diary.

Santa's babysitting for us.

Well, only Lorraine's asked me to go to
this charity thing, and I can't exactly

let the boss down, can I?

Yeah, why not?

I'm having CBB's withdrawal symptoms
anyway. Brilliant.

You are an angel.

Ain't wish me luck.

Why? Well, you never know, I might even
bag myself a footballer.

Good news.

Fuck this time. Who's the man? Well
done, dear. Well done, really.

Well done.

Sorry, she's in the attic or something.
Do you realise how much

damage this could do to the school? I
wasn't charged with anything.

That doesn't change the fact. You nearly
killed someone.

And I've changed.

From a broken home to the head of a
thriving independent school. I mean,

that the point?

Isn't that what we should be trying to
teach these kids, that they can change

their lives?

That's a good angle.

We might use that in our press release.

Well, that's not quite what I meant. Any
other bombshells you want to drop while

you're at it?

No. Good.

I'll see if the council has arrived yet.
Cheers.

You all right?

I've had better days.

Yeah. I can't. It was a gig.

Permanent log.

Thanks. It's nearly four o 'clock. The
fight.

Oh, we've got to go. Keep me there.

What time is it?

I think... Should be on the way.

Maybe they've just bottled it.

Don't think so somehow.

We are so going to get our heads kicked
in.

At least we're going to go down
fighting, aren't we?

Boomer, you seen Tarek and Josh?

You would tell me if you knew, though,
right?

Yeah.

Lula?

They would think I told you on purpose.

Told me what?

Come on, then.

You first.

Here you come.

Come on, come on, just come on!

Come on, come on, come on!

Come on, come on, just come on!

No!

Wait! Stop, man!

No! No!

Don't let go!

Don't let go, yeah? Look, it's my fault,
yeah?

It's my fault.

I caused it.

Don't you get it?

I'll set yous up.

Let's just walk away, come on.

I'll give you a hand.

Here, how are you doing? Hold it, hold
it. Get off.

That's enough!

Are you all right?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Answers, now!

Gus worked out he was attacking the fuel
house.

He took a stand.

Violence won't be tolerated.

It stops, now.

Now get home, the lot of you.

Thanks. You're on probation, lad.

Er, what's that?

Don't worry, it's only dirty washing.

Well, I'm not doing it.

Not after your performance today.

And you can forget about Saturday.

Like you'd be able to drag yourself out
of bed in the first place.

You know, I've got everyone nosing into
our business because of you.

Oh, anything to brighten up all these
sadics with your life, I suppose.

Have you looked in the mirror lately?

Oh,

you think you're so smart.

I wonder what Mr Byrne would say if he
knew the truth.

You know, you can try and make me look
bad all you like.

It won't do any good. I poured my heart
out in his office.

What did you say?

I told him that you're a devious,
selfish, little weirdo that can't be

I mean, what is a mother to do?

Mum, I'm sorry.

Mum.

Mum.

You know that it popped your eye over
the IP?

Thanks.

Sian.

Sorry I haven't been open with you. It's
just not something I wanted to shout

about. Because bottling it up is going
to help.

Ask Tarek.

I'm not bottling anything up.

There's no guilt here, certainly no
remorse.

You must feel something.

My father deserved everything he got.

That man beat my mother like clockwork.

Shoes not polished enough.

The belt.

Dinner too hot.

Dinner too cold. The back of his hand.
Do you want me to go on?

Why didn't she leave him?

She didn't want him to start on me.

She always made sure I was in my bed
when he got home from the pub.

Out of sight.

And she waited.

Never put up a fight.

I'd lie there listening to it, and there
was nothing I could do because he was

bigger than me.

And one day I was bigger than him.

My only regret is I never finished the
job.

You don't mean that.

Don't I?

You're talking about murder.

About taking someone's life.

This is that man who's my father.

What I did to him, that doesn't make me
a monster.

I'll have to take your word for that.

You know full well you attacked me in
the pub.

You fell over into a table. Is that what
you told the police when they arrested

you for beating your father to a pulp?
So we lost six pupils, fine.

But if a trickle becomes a flood,
different story.

It's probably just a false alarm.

You obviously don't know this place, do
you?

You're jealous.

Jealous about somebody in my life
compared to your sad, empty existence.

Oh, Imogen, I thought your mum had gone
home.

She has.

Blue, that old hag didn't go to biology
lesson in Phoenix's room.

I haven't. or people will have to go
before you do do something?

You know something? I really should
never have come back here.

Too many ghosts.
