All language subtitles for Waterloo Road s08e26

Are you finishing with her?

Yes, I am. Do you know who the biggest
investor in Knox Farms critical is?

Lorraine Donegan.

I'd like to formally offer you the head
of year 12 post.

Here.

I'm with Audrey now.

But she's an old woman!

Why would you choose her over me?

It was ledger on him, that's sorry. Stop
saying sorry!

You're not sorry!

I am! I'm here then.

We've got a bit of business. We're kind
of moguling.

Imogen!

Thank you.

Get in.

Are you here, man?

Got a little job for you later.

Should be too difficult to find a way
in.

You want me to go burgling? Don't worry.

It's just some old biddy who lives
there.

Worst she'll do is she catches you, you
swing her handbag.

We'll work our way up from here.

Something a bit more challenging.

No. No way, I'm not... I thought you
were a bright lad.

You don't get it, do you?

You're mine.

If I tell you to do something, you do
it. I'm not doing that. I'm not going

robbing for you. Why don't you think
about this?

What's the one thing you care about the
most?

Your precious wife.

Now, I could break yous up in a
heartbeat.

Trust me.

I'm a man who gets what he wants.

Morning. Hi, sir.

Let me take a seat over here.

That's for you. Thank you.

And thanks for getting up at stupid o
'clock to come and help me like that.

Don't thank me, it's my pleasure.

I'm just scared I'll get nervous and
mess it up today.

Well, that's exactly how I felt at my
university interview.

It's normal.

Now, despite everything I've told you
about interview technique, I think the

real key to success here is to just be
yourself.

I think I can do that.

Good. And, you know, a few nerves
sometimes can be a good thing.

So, we'll start with a few mock
questions, I think. Here you go.

Grab the pen.

Here, don't you realise what you're
doing?

You're torturing animals. Yes, yes. With
your conscience.

There's blood on your hands.

Why don't you go off to school and learn
a few facts?

Here's a fact.

You work in a concentration camp.

Wrong. We're here to help save lives.
Have you any idea how many diseases

trying to cure in there?

Lies. One day you'll grow up.

What's wrong?

I know her. She's my next door
neighbour.

Jack?

Don't tell me you're involved with this
lot.

Eh, sort of.

What's wrong with you?

What?

It's just that you've been acting quite
weird these last few days.

Fine.

You've not had a fight with Steve -o?

No. Good.

Because we need to keep him sweet.

You don't want to go upsetting him.

Yeah, and you don't want to go sticking
your nose in when it's not wanted. I'm

just saying. Yeah, well, don't.

All right, babes?

Yeah? Not seen you for ages.

You're not playing hard to get, are you?

Just keeping it clean. It's working.

So you coming round to my place tonight?

Maybe. I've got a lot of work to do.

You can find time for me, though.

Real sick.

Come here.

Oh.

Can we help you, pal?

No.

So what are you staring at us for?

I wasn't.

I think his proper heart broke.

It's not my problem.

See ya.

She's mine now.

You got it.

In every way.

Good luck, Liberty.

You've got everything it takes for this,
believe me.

Thank you, sir.

Very best of luck.

What time were you out this morning?

You never switch off.

Well, I have a finance meeting with
Lorraine.

As for Liberty, it goes with the
territory.

It's a privilege, never a chore.

Morning. Not too early, am I? No, no.
Shall we?

See you later.

Morning.

Spreadsheets. Thank you. Morning. Hiya.

So, where do you like to start?

Staffing? There's something I need to
tell you.

That sounds ominous.

I've decided to close the PRU.

Haven't we been through all that before?

I know, but it's a question of tough
choices.

I really wish we can keep it, but the
truth is we just can't afford to. We've

introduced the setting tests in order to
better establish individual pupil

needs. Surely the PRU complements that.

Believe me, Michael.

I wish there were another way.

There is.

There has to be.

Lorraine, the PRU is central to what we
plan to achieve here. It costs too much.

The training courses, the one -on -one
tutoring.

It eats up resources, and unless we look
at that, we could end up with no school

at all.

Our job is to find the most hard
-working and intelligent kids we can and

them into this school.

I want us to move forward together.

I've got a few ideas I'd love to bounce
off you.

Of course, but...

Perhaps not right now.

After we've got through this lot,
there's the setting exams to oversee and

full school day to get through.

How about dinner?

Tonight?

Sounds good.

Yeah?

The setting papers are ready. You want
to double -check them? OK, give me a

OK.

If you could do that, Steve, I'd really
appreciate it. OK?

That's what I said.

Lula, how did it go?

They ignored us.

They told us to go back to school.

They just won't listen.

Are you surprised?

It's hard for them to admit they've
spilled blood for a living.

We need to target Lauren Donegan.

She's the one who's putting money into
that company.

I've been going too far.

What you need to do is think of a way to
make them listen.

Get the class.

Imogen? Or should I call you Mrs
Mulgrew?

That's between us.

What do you want? Do I not get a thank
you?

For keeping it quiet about your secret
wedding.

Thanks for not saying anything.

Can I get this stuff and get back?

Can it back later if you want.

Okay.

We should meet for coffee or something.

I don't think so.

I meant because I don't have it with me.

Well, if you're being like that, like
you're too good to be seen with me,

we'll just leave it.

Okay, I'll meet you.

I'll fix this for coffee.

Okay. Come on.

I'll pick you up here.

Lunchtime.

Short drive to mine and you'll have your
precious piece of paper.

Okay.

What does he want? Don't get mad. I'm
just meeting him later to get our

certificate back. You're going nowhere
with him. For God's sake, Connor, calm

down. Right, we need to get out of here.
Let's just leave today. Go where? We've

been over this before.

What about your dad? No way. You know we
don't get on. It's our only option.

Connor, you're not talking sense. We
can't just up sticks and leave. Imogen,

begging you, please.

Let's just get enough money together, at
least for our train fares.

Deebo is dangerous, believe me.

Is she serious?

I'm having dinner with her tonight to
discuss it. Well, what's the point if

she's decided to close it? The point is
I'm going to go armed with everything I

need to win the PRU argument.

I want you to put together a report
outlining our attainment and performance

how well we've done at Waterloo Road,
specifically with the PRU.

Well, it'd be enough to sway her. She
already knows what we've done.

That's worth a try.

I need the PRU to be at the very centre
of it.

It might also help me combat any other
ideas she tries to throw at me later on.

Get me comparison figures on truancy and
exclusions with other schools in the

area that don't have referral units so
she can see how well we're doing.

Nicky would have all this info, but I'm
guessing you don't want me to go to her.

Just keep it between us for now.

Morning.

Is it?

I am way behind with my Year 13 marking.
I've got two exams to invigilate this

morning. Because free periods don't
happen any more, I don't know when I'm

to get a chance to catch up with it all.

I don't want to whinge, but I was up
past midnight.

Free time of any kind's a thing of the
past.

I've been up marking since half past
five this morning.

I don't know how much longer we can go
on like this.

Look, I'm well aware of all the extra
work everyone's putting in, but we're

grateful for it.

We're all having to go that little bit
further at the moment, but that's the

price we have to pay for the school that
we want.

Can I have a word?

They're grateful.

Look, just to let you know, I gushed
with Michael this morning and his back's

up.

What about?

I'm closing the PRU.

Gosh, your mind's made up on that, is
it?

He was never going to be happy about it.
No.

Annie will be even less happy when I
tell him I've decided to start charging

fees.

How?

I mean, most of my kids won't be able to
afford that, will they? I want to

change that.

Most of the kids taking the setting
exams today could.

Haven't you told him? I'm going to talk
him into it over dinner tonight.

You'll have to see it's the most
sensible way to save the school.

All right.

Thank you.

Look, Tom and I have been taking out the
setting tests for most of the day, so

any problems, staff will report to you.

No problem.

Oh. Christine?

I haven't had your head of year report
for last week yet.

Don't you check your emails first thing?

I haven't had the time this morning.

Well, I realise you're a very busy
woman, but I sent them over last night.

Any questions?

Don't hesitate to ask.

Mum?

You OK, Connor?

I'm a bit worried about Imogen.

She's a bit down after everything that's
gone on, so...

I'd like to take her to the cinema.

I hope you're not asking me for money
after Michael paying off your debt last

week.

But Imogen's more than welcome to come
over and, you know, watch a movie or

something. Please, Mum.

You know I'm sorry. Can you and Mr Burns
get off my case for one night?

Please.

OK.

But I want you home by ten.

I need your advice.

Where would be the best place to order a
wedding cake?

Hang about.

You're telling me you ain't even ordered
it yet.

Oh, no.

With the workload I've got to get
through at the moment, I'm falling way

on all the preparations. You have had
your dress fitted, haven't you? Not as

yet, no.

Ordered flowers?

Isn't that always an invitation?

Listen, why don't you make a list and
give it to me later?

I think I've just become your official
wedding planner.

Are you sure? Thank you so much. Of
course.

You'll never get it all done otherwise.

You, uh, leave it to Sonia.

Are you okay?

Can you help me at lunchtime?

There's something I need to do.

Can you help me? On with your work, dear
Fiona.

Anything?

Come here.

What do you want?

Look, I know that we're over and that
you don't care about

me the way you did, but I do care about
you.

Why can't you just stop hanging around
like some sad case?

I'm not being a sad case. I love you.

Just leave me alone, Kevin.

I'll leave you alone if you tell me that
you're actually happy.

Because I saw how you were with him
today.

And something's not right between you.

I'm trying to help you. I don't need any
help.

I don't believe you.

Tell me what it is.

Leave it, Kevin. Has he done something
to you? Are you stupid or...

I mean... I mean...

We... I led him on.

Right?

Made him think that I wanted to.

So you can't go blaming Steve -O.

He raped you.

Don't say that.

Don't say that word.

He did.

It's all a thought, Mum.

So just leave it.

Leave it or we'll hit you. I don't care.
Kevin, please.

I don't want anything to happen to you.

Don't mess with me. You can't get away
with this.

There's nothing you can do.

You can't tell anyone.

So just drop it.

Because I am.

Christine, thanks for the report.

You look busy.

When aren't we?

Anything I can help with?

I doubt it.

One nil to you.

Is there no -one else from Darley could
ask? He must have a mate that he'd want

to be his best man. Not really, no.

He would have asked himself. He felt
awkward.

Of course.

I'd love to.

Tom, thank you so much. That means a
great deal to us.

Sorry to disturb you.

What is it, Audrey?

Well, you know I'm up to my eyes with
all manner of arrangements for this

wedding. Sonia's very kindly doing the
dress and the clothes.

I haven't asked anyone to be my
bridesmaid.

I wondered if you'd do me the honour.

Well, why wouldn't you want someone in
your own family to be your bridesmaid?

They're not coming.

And why is that?

They don't even know I'm getting
married.

Why haven't you told them, Audrey?

Worried about what they might say?

Worried they might tell you it's
ridiculous? I mean, come on!

You're entitled to your own opinion.

You all are.

I know what you're all thinking.

That I'm preying on a younger man.

Making an old fool of myself.

Audrey, no -one's saying anything.

Maybe not to my faith, Tom.

Well, you're all wrong.

And Dundali and I will take particular
pleasure in proving it.

I sort of thought we could have relied
on support from at least some of you.

We love each other.

Why can't you accept that?

What do you think you're doing in here?

Oh, I was just looking for a bucket and
mop.

I spot something in the English
corridor.

Well, I will do it in a few minutes. Go
on, you can go. Oh, no, it was my fault.

Let me do it.

Liberty gave me 10 and I already had 20.

Are you sure we're doing the right
thing?

There's no other option.

We need to act normal to the end of the
day or they'll figure something is up.

I'll catch up later.

What's wrong?

Right.

Mate, you need to get over her.

Steve, I... Steve, I wiped her.

You should go to the police.

I can't. She doesn't want anyone to
know. The guy's a psycho.

That's why me and Imogen are leaving.

Evo raped at the end of the day. Who
knows what we'll do next?

He's unhinged and you're running away.

What else can I do?

We can deal with him ourselves.

What, like fight him?

No. Well, what then?

I mean take him out.

You're mad.

Yeah, I am.

And you would be too.

There must be someone we can go to about
this. No, are you going to help me or

not? Mr Burnham or my mum are just
someone. Did you hear what I said? We're

dealing with a thug, a criminal.

Kevin, listen to me. No, no, you've got
people sorting your problems for you.

And you're still leaving.

I'll take care of this myself.

Well, we talked to Dynasty.

Get her help.

He's totally broken up. Well, he's not
scared of us. What can we do?

He's made her feel... Like it's her
fault.

And look what he's done to you.

He's turned you into a little coward,
hiding away in corners and snivelling

your hanky.

He enjoys it, Connor.

Making you feel scared. He gets off on
it.

And you said it yourself, he's going to
get away with this again and again.

And I don't know about you, but I
couldn't live with myself knowing that's

to happen.

This is insane.

Forget it. I don't know why.

We...

Remember these exams are setting tests,
they're not entrance examinations.

They're just to help us determine the
most appropriate classes for you to go

into should you choose to come to us.

And there's a place for all of you at
Waterloo Road if you want one.

This is just part of a process that will
allow you to make the most of your time

here.

Can I introduce you to Lorraine Donegan?
She provides the funding for the

school. You've all been highly
recommended to us and I'm sure you're

make a fantastic contribution to our
school.

I think we'd both like to thank you all
very much for being here.

So, just relax and try and do your best.

Okay?

You can start.

Just say that I was to go through with
this stupid idea, which I'm not.

How are you actually going to do it, eh?

How are you actually going to kill him?

Yeah, you didn't like the sound of that,
did you? I'll think of something.

Don't worry. And then what?

You end up in prison.

Well, if we do it properly, we'll make
sure nobody catches us. There is no we.

And how did you properly murder someone
anyway?

We give each other an alibi.

When it happened, I was with you and you
was with me.

We get rid of the body.

We throw him in the river.

Imagine how many people want to see him
dead.

The police won't know who to come
looking for.

Tell me the truth, Connor.

Yes or no?

After everything he's put you through.

Do you really want him on your case
forever?

No. Then you'll never have to look over
your shoulder again. Heavens, you can't.

Hello.

Shouldn't you two be somewhere?

Yeah.

Thank you.

Things without all remedy should be done
without regard.

What done is done.

Ah, decided to join us.

Where did you get to?

Sorry.

Right.

Lady Macbeth.

A nasty manipulator or a loyal wife who
wants what's best for her man?

Tennessee?

Adam Loomis.

Oh, come on. She's got a right gob on
her.

Like somebody else I know.

Imogen. I think she comes across as dead
strong and supportive.

She ends up a nervous wreck, though.
Why?

Guilt. Or maybe a fear of getting
caught?

She didn't murder Duncan, Macbeth did.

But you'd never have done it if she
hadn't goaded him into it.

Exactly. She totally wound him up from
the start.

Told him he wasn't a proper man if he
didn't do it. She was wrong.

Because all she ever wanted was money
and power.

Supposing Duncan had it coming to him,
like he deserved it.

I think you're writing another play
there, Kevin.

Denise? Are you OK?

You don't seem to use yourself.

I'm just tired, miss.

Our buddy was playing his music till,
like, three in the morning.

I'm all with you.

Why don't you tell her?

Like I said... Denise, you need to talk
to someone about what's happened to you.

Leave me.

I think it was the weak men around Lady
Macbeth that led to her downfall.

No, I agree.

Hold on.

You're not bottling it out on me, are
you, mate?

We need to decide how we're going to do
this, and there's got to be a gun.

Don't be stupid.

I've been thinking about it, and it's
the only way.

You can't just put a gun in the
supermarket.

Barry could get us one.

Right, OK.

OK, but let me talk to him. He's not
going to sort a gun for you.

I'll talk to him, OK?

I'll see you later.

See you.

All right.

It's almost lunchtime.

Are you sure I shouldn't just go and
meet Steve -o like he wants?

Of course I'm sure.

I'll sort it. I don't want you going
anywhere near him.

He wants to see me.

Kevin's going to ask you to do something
for him.

And he thinks I'm just going to say yes?

He wants you to get hold of a gun.

No, no, no, no.

This is some kind of wind -up. Look, you
can't help him.

What's he going to do with it?

He's going to kill Steve -O.

You'd better tell me everything.

Right, now, in your group, I would like
you to come up with three examples of

how the history of Ireland influenced
the writing of these stories.

Better late than never, Mr Mulgrew.

Sorry.

He won't do it.

Said no way. Did you tell him that we'd
pay? Yeah. And he's not interested, so

drop it. Give up?

Just like that?

Yeah.

Not only do you show great discourtesy
by arriving late, Connor, but now you

proceed to disrupt the class.

Find another group, please.

Do we have to do it like this?

Can't we just ring on the door later and
talk to her?

Explain our views.

I'm talking to her. Not good. We tried
it this morning.

Is this the health, Jackson?

I think so.

Isn't this just going to make them mad?

Mad? Are you not mad at what knocks from
our city are doing to animals?

This is war.

And in war, you must take action against
your enemies.

So please do this. Come on.

Come on!

What are you doing?

Get out of here.

Come on.

I'm not finished.

We've got gold.

Come on.

Shut up. That doesn't mean anything.
You're supposed to say shame.

Come on.

Hey.

Have you got anything you want to tell
me?

It's just that Connor said Devo did
something to you.

Like what?

Well, he said he, um...

He said he raped you.

What?

That's it.

So it's not true?

No.

I just wanted to hear it from you.

Audrey, I've got everything under
control.

I've ordered your flowers, chosen the
menus, and I've arranged a fitting for

your dress.

Sonia, I can't thank you enough, and I
am so sorry about my outburst in the

darkroom this morning.

Oh, it's just pre -wedding now.

Everyone gets them.

Oh, you, uh, sorted your bridesmaids in
there?

No, not exactly.

I've never been a bridesmaid.

I thought I was quite fancy -dipped
myself.

Well, I wouldn't want you to do it out
of fitting.

You're joking, aren't you? In which
case, I would be delighted and honoured.

Brilliant.

I'm looking

very happy.

She is the dearest, though.

I thought maybe we could have lunch
together.

Who cares what the rest of them think?
We have each other.

And with Tom and Sonia at our side,
we'll have a beautiful day.

Tom and Sonia? They've agreed to be our
best man and bridesmaid, our witnesses.

Oh.

See you later.

Holly and Casey made me run away, but
those people will know. They can't

us.

It felt so good, you know, knowing that
I was actually doing something.

And what exactly did you write?

I was going to write shame, but I
couldn't finish, so it just says shut.

But she's going to get the message.

You think?

I thought you would be pleased.

Pleased? Because you redecorated
someone's garage door and got paint all

your uniform without communicating
anything.

And it's going to be wiped off in no
time anyway.

No impact.

No effect.

I wanted to do something.

You start by thinking and getting a
clear message out there.

So you're going to be Audrey's
bridesmaid.

What are you doing?

Are you trying to destroy the wedding?

No.

I just wanted to be part of your special
day, that's all.

You're not going to tell Audrey about
us?

I don't know.

Sonia, we have spoken about this.

I am marrying Audrey, OK?

Look, besides, it's the only way that I
can stay in the country.

My visa will be expiring soon.

Do you understand?

Marry me instead then. Look, all the
paperwork is complete. If we change it

how is that going to look to the
authorities?

Then I've got no choice, I suppose.

I'm going to have to tell her.

Look, maybe...

Maybe we can still see each other, you
know?

Just from time to time.

I didn't think you wanted me anymore.
Come on, of course I want you.

You're extremely hard to release.

But what about Audrey?

As long as Audrey never finds out, then
you and I, we can still be together.

Get off me, Barry!

What do you want? Speak to me like that
again and I won't get you what you want.

Connor told me you wouldn't get it.

Yeah, well, that's before I spoke to
Misha.

Look, go into the old Madison warehouse
on the river.

There's a lift shaft at the back.

I'll leave it in a box there for you by
the pillar this afternoon.

Oi!

Have you got that?

Yeah.

Right.

This should be everything you need. If I
do say so myself, it's a pretty

persuasive argument.

Thank you so much for this.

Will it be enough to change Lorraine's
mind?

She won't be able to deny evidence
presented to her in black and white.

Is that more hope than expectation?

I'll do everything I can.

I know you will.

Miss? Yes, Lola?

Can I please be excused from the class?
I need to go to the library and do some

research on bacterial infection.

What about this lesson?

I'll copy up the notes later.

Just make sure you do. Thank you, Miss.

Got the completed exam papers.

Thank you, Sonia. Just put them over
there for now, please.

They were a nice crowd of kids.

They seemed to be, yes.

Very polite, mind you.

That's what you'd expect, I suppose.

Hmm? With them all coming from private
schools.

What do you mean? You know, good manners
and that.

No, I mean, how do you know they all
came from private schools?

There was a list.

I'm pretty sure they was all private.

And none of them from round here either.

Can you tell Lorraine I'd like to see
her, please?

Now!

What's so important?

How did we even get to this point?

I need parents who shop around for the
best school for their kids to come to

Or we're not going to be here for very
long. To come to us and pay.

That was one of the great ideas you were
going to bounce off me tonight. We're

to be a fee -paying school. There's no
other way, Michael. Parents who can't

afford to pay also want the best for
their kids. I can't believe I'm telling

that. You've forgotten where you came
from.

I'm talking about the reality.

It's either this or no school at all.
Right, well then, let me ask you this.

How far do you think you would have got
at school in the face of an attitude

like that?

Emotional blackmail doesn't make you
right.

You really are all about the money,
aren't you?

You sound surprised.

Not so much for your reason for closing
down the PRU.

Don't worry, Lorraine, there's plenty of
cash left over now.

The PRU doesn't fit in with your shiny
vision, does it?

These wealthy parents you'll be courting
would run a mile if they thought there

was a referral unit here and they'll
take all their money with them. The PRU

a drain on time, money.

and energy.

Michael, I want us to refocus. From now
on, we measure ourselves on how the kids

who leave us compete in the job market.

On how we can prepare them to make a
difference.

Come on, Liberty Gordon's got an
interview for Edinburgh University

She's had her eyes opened up in terms of
what she can achieve, and the work that

we've done for her here has made a
difference. Liberty isn't most kids. She

That's the whole point! Either you
accept the changes we're trying to make

or you don't!

I would rather there were no school at
all than one that reinforces inequality

and denies a fair and equal chance to
the children and families out there,

Lorraine, that we are trying to serve.

I'd sooner see it closed than let it
damage this community.

In which case, you have a problem.

So what are you going to do?

What can I do?

I'm faced with a woman who's turned her
back on all of her principles.

Answer me.

What are you going to do?

There's only one thing I can do.

Say it then.

Tell me.

I resign.

And I accept your resignation.

He's not serious, is he?

Yeah.

So am I.

Michael can't be our headteacher
anymore.

So I need a new one.

One who shares my vision and wants to
take the school forward.

Me? You up for it?

Lorraine, I'm not ready. So when are you
going to be ready?

Are you ever going to know if you don't
just jump in and do it?

Is she OK?

I'm sorting it.

Turns out Barry can help.

So I'm going to go down to the docks and
Steve -O's going to pay. Kevin, you

can't... Kevin.

Are we heading there, then?

To the station?

I'll meet you there at four.

Why aren't we going together?

I can't. My mum wants to see me and she
gets suspicious if I don't turn up,

so... Okay.

Well, I'll go out the back way so Steve
-O doesn't see me.

Yeah, yeah, of course.

Hey, it's going to be okay.

It'll all be over soon.

Once we're away from here, we won't have
to worry about Steve -O anymore.

Look, if I'm late, don't wait for me.
I'll just catch you up.

Thank you.

I wanted it to work, Michael.

I wanted us to make it all happen.

Together.

I know.

Phil, I don't regret coming up here and
trying.

I have to do what I think is right. Oh,
I wouldn't expect anything less of you.

I just wish there was something I could
say to you that would make you

understand how I feel.

I'm sorry it comes there.

Me too.

Imogen? Are you leaving?

I need you in the corner.

I have to.

You were just going to go when you were
going to tell me.

I wasn't going to tell anyone.

I suppose to be you, mate.

Maybe you should be asking why we're
leaving.

It's because of Theo, your boyfriend.

He wants Connor to burgle houses for him
and who knows what else. He's a head

case. I didn't know. You didn't know
what he was like?

Do me a favour.

You can lie to yourself, but it won't
wash with anyone else. Mina, I didn't

know. You've made your choice, Dynasty.

No one's making you go out with him.

I don't mean what I said. I was just
really... It's not you.

It's Stephen.

Why? What's he done?

Hey,

Mr.

Brown. Liberty, come back, come back.

So, how'd it go?

It was brilliant. I had such a great
day.

Definitely want to go there. Good.
That's great news.

And thank you for everything you've
done.

I wouldn't have even been there if it
weren't for you. No, no. It was a total

pleasure.

Well done, you.

You deserve every success.

Thank you, sir.

Robert, it's Michael Byrne.

Yeah, I did want to talk to you quite
urgently, in fact.

It's about the future of Waterloo Road.

Have you seen Michael?

Actually, he's left.

He's resigned as headteacher of Waterloo
Road.

Why?

There are changes I need to implement
here which he felt he couldn't live

After everything Michael has given this
girl? It was his choice, Christine.

OK, Nicky.

What do you have to say about this?

I've asked Nicky to take over his head
with immediate effect and she said yes.

This is a joke.

You are no headteacher. Except I am,
aren't I?

From this moment and for a long time to
come.

I'm going to make something of this
school, so I suggest you go away and

about how you plan on contributing here.

Then come and tell me about it. I'll be
all ears.

Mrs Mulgrew!

Mrs Mulgrew!

Not now, Imogen. You have to come. It's
dynasty, please.

She's in the toilets.

What happened?

She's a mess.

It's because of Steve -o.

Steve -o? He just keeps on ruining
people's lives.

He's no idea what he's done. No, no,
Michael sorted all of that. Connor

owe him anything anymore. No, it's not
about the money anymore.

He's blackmailing us. How could he be
blackmailing you?

With a marriage certificate.

I know, and I'm sorry.

He's dangerous. I don't know what he's
done to Tennessee, but I've never seen

her like this before. Please.

Whatever it is, I'm going to stay right
here and

you take all the time you need.

It's Steve -O.

Right.

He made me.

Made you what?

Why didn't you say anything?

Because it was all my fault.

No.

No, it wasn't.

I have to go to the police.

Imogen.

We're going to wait until you're ready.

Before we do anything.

I know how much courage it took you just
to tell us.

But then you see, you can't let this
break you.

I was scared that no one would believe
me.

Well, I do.

But you don't listen to me.

Imogen is right.

You have to report him.

What if he just lies and says he's my
boyfriend?

Well, whether he's your boyfriend or
not, he... He assaulted you.

Now, you have the strength to do this. I
know you do.

And I will be with you.

I think you handled it really well.

It's going to take time for them to
accept me.

And... Some of them never will.

Which is their decision.

And their problem.

You're now the headteacher of Waterloo
Road.

And I have absolutely no doubt in my
mind that you are the right person for

job.

Thank you.

I'll admit, um...

A little bit apprehensive.

But... It means everything that you've
put your faith in me.

I won't let you down.

Kevin. Look, don't do it.

Look, if you're not going to help me,
just go.

You could get arrested or killed.

Do you think that's what Dennis do
wants? I mean it, Connor.

Leave me alone.

Because I'm telling you now, it isn't.
So you're not doing this for her.

Go away.

Or I swear, if you try and stop me...
You're what?

Eh? Shoot me as well?

Listen to yourself.

I can't let you do it. What are you
doing? Whatever it takes to make you

Get out of my way. I mean it. So do I.

Look, Kevin.

Not even here.

You're looking for something, lad.

Why don't you tell me about your little
plan?

So you're going to kill me and then
throw away the gun?

That's what I've been told.

What do you mean, that's what you've
been told?

How could you?

After what he did to your sister, you're
going to let him do that?

He was going to do it to him.

Pays to know who your friends are.

Go on, then.

Do it.

Because if you think I'm going to stand
here and beg, you're wrong.

I wouldn't give you the satisfaction.

Do something, then.

You're going to let him shoot him? It's
not my fight, mate.

You raped Dynasty.

That's going to get out. Whether you
shoot me or not, everyone is going to

exactly what you are. Is that right? You
think you can take whatever you want,

but you can never make her like you or
respect you.

Steve -O, Dynasty hates you. Do you
realise that? Kevin! She wants you gone

much as we do.

Nobody would miss you if you
disappeared, Steve -O.

Especially not Dynasty.

Shut up! Her life would be better if she
had never met you! That's not it!

You set me up.

Defend her!

Timothy said you never did anything to
her.

But I know her.

And I know when she's lying.

You didn't think I was going to let you
get away with it?

Eh?

You raped my sister!

You think I was going to let you get
away with that?

I was never here.

This is Drino's place.

On your knees! On your knees!

On your knees!

Look at me!

Are you okay?

What's happening?

That's my son?

Excuse me, madam.

This way, son.

Have you seen the others?

No, not yet.

Have you been released on bail?

What did he say?

That Devo's been on it since he moved
here.

He followed us and pulled a gun.

Good.

I can't believe that whole thing was a
set -up just so Barry could get back at

Devo. I can't believe I thought shooting
him would fix things.

I'm sorry for bringing you into this.

And thank you for trying... trying to
stop me.

It's OK.

I get it's Dennis we need to think about
now.

I don't think she'll want anything to do
with me after what I've done.

I don't even know if I should wait for
her.

No, you should.

I'll leave you guys alone.

Where's she going?

I don't know what you think you were
doing.

But you're an idiot.

I know.

You could have gotten hit.

Never would have forgiven myself.

I'm so sorry.

are against everything we want to go on
waiting. What has happened here? Knocks

from our physicals are criminal.

Change the record, Lula. She'll kick you
out in order. Please profit him from

murder. I'm leaving.

Anton, we're good.

We're going for good.

Oh, lady.

I need to move on.

Please,

what is this? Don't cancel the wedding.

Is this right? What are we going to do?
No, teacher!

We want this girl!

I need to see the head.

You're speaking to her?
