All language subtitles for Waterloo Road s08e25.eng

Oi!

Steve -o.

Barry Barry said we had some business to
take care of. I'd like to be a donor

for Granby.

What are you doing? It's amazing.

I don't know if I am doing it.

No, I've got the ball.

Are you going to kiss me or what?

You stay away from my girl.

Or will you marry me?

We are here today.

to witness and celebrate the marriage of
Conor Mulgrew and Imogen Stewart.

That's evil, it's bad news.

What? Nothing.

You better tell me. It's nothing.

It's just that I can't believe you're
here.

Me neither.

Sauce. I need the milk.

Hiya, babes. What are you doing here?
Get out.

All right.

Calm down.

I mean it, Steve -O.

Kevin!

Tell Mum I'm going.

Don't you want to wish her luck?

Is he all right?

Seems even more distant than usual.

No, he's fine.

Just doesn't do mornings.

And that, he gets from me.

Here. Oh, thank you.

You look great.

Head of your material?

Oh, absolutely.

No, I think this promotion will do you
no end of good.

Get your career right back on track.

They did the small matter of three other
candidates.

Yes, but they don't have the reference
that I gave you.

Anyone would think you were desperate to
get rid of me, Michael.

Oh, come on, you didn't actually think
that, did you?

I just want you to be challenged.

Anywhere but Waterloo Road.

Go on, admit it. You don't want me
standing over your shoulder,

every minute of the day, do you?

Right.

As usual.

This is a great opportunity.

Tell me.

What did that reference say again?

Oh.

It said that you were perfect.

Yeah. Here you go.

Two sugars.

So, how did you get in?

Dead easy.

You might want to review your security
arrangements.

Could have been anyone.

So what's this little runt got that I
haven't?

Evil dishes in our flat.

We need to get to school.

Have you got any bacon?

You've done well for yourself, pal.

Not many lads your age could pull a bird
-like dinner today.

I don't know how you got in here, but if
you don't leave now, I'm calling the

police. Kevin!

Go on.

Make me.

Steve -o?

Please?

All right.

I know what I'm not wanted.

I'll get that bacon butter some other
time, yeah?

I'll be around here quite a lot.

Dead easy if I make a pop in.

Yeah, cool.

I'll be seeing you later, mate.

Don't be late for school. You'll end up
in detention.

We're changing the locks.

Today.

Why isn't it us again, sir? Oi, watch
it.

All right, Lula, just passing through.

Yes. Fancy a bite and butter?

I'm a vegetarian.

Maggie, how is he? Better now I've given
him his morning wash.

He don't know where a bed bath is in
that place.

Any sign of improvement?

I swear, I thought something, a little
flicker, when I told him what you were

doing for him.

Talking of which, any news?

No, not yet. No.

Why don't you sit down? I'll make you a
cup of tea.

What's the beer for?

Morning. Hello there.

Did you get the bus?

No, I walked. It's only three miles.
Well, I can't tell you how thrilled we

to have you here.

It's not often schools attract people
with your academic background.

Oh, I'm glad to be here. Uni lecturing's
lost its buzz.

I think we can promise you plenty of
that.

Oh, and it's Esther. I don't use the
doctor much. Esther, two colleagues, and

Miss Bearcloth. I just think we should
enjoy our engagement in private

for a while.

You are worried about what people will
say, aren't you?

Yes, I am a wee bit.

Well, don't be.

When they see that we are happy
together, these people will soon forget

their preconceptions.

You're right, I know.

It's not just that. I mean, I'm fighting
to catch up with this new timetable

and... You need something to take your
mind off of all of this pressure.

How about you?

Me and the Glasgow Philharmonic.
Tonight.

Well, that would be wonderful.

Look, see there, you can't smile.

I'll see you later.

Audrey, your bag.

Thank you.

Honestly, I can't tell you.

The Philharmonic in full flow is a
wonder to behold.

Dolly will never see anything like it.
It'll be a real treat for him. Well,

don't forget the customary doner kebab
after.

Oh, Tom.

Everyone, can I just introduce our new
acting head of science, Esther

Fairclough. Hi. Hi. Good to be here.

Esther's coming to us from higher
education. I think she was a bit fed up

lazy undergraduates, so she'll be here
with us, instilling a little bit of

academic rigour. I'm just here to do my
best for the school.

Yeah, well, you were.

Might want to watch it, cos some of this
lot bite.

Only joking.

I'm Sonia.

Michael's PA.

Nicky. If they do bite, just bite them
back.

I'll bear that in mind.

Morning. Esther, this is Lorraine
Donegan.

Ah, very pleased to meet you.

And you, Esther.

You got a sec?

I think Sonia can show you the ropes, if
that's all right.

Sonia, would you mind?

Here he is, my mate Connor.

Oi!

Mopey.

Not so fast.

The interest on that loan's going
through the roof.

If I don't get paid, something else is
going to get torched.

Why didn't you just sell the truck?

You'd have got the money for it. Too
much hassle.

Your house keys, please.

No, I've already sold everything to pay
you.

I'll check that myself.

Your room only, I promise.

Good boy.

This cost -cutting plan should get us
through the next academic year.

The reality, I'm afraid, is that Esther
is a luxury we just can't afford.

Michael, we can't take on any more
permanent staff.

We promised our parents a high staff -to
-pupil ratio.

Read through it carefully and we'll
discuss it when I get back.

I've got a meeting that I have to be at
in London this afternoon. I'm sorry, but

I think this is more important.

I won't lose any more teachers,
Lorraine.

Staff salaries are 90 % of our budget.

That has to change.

So let's negotiate.

Fine.

Do whatever it takes, but that number
has to come down.

Oh, and what are the chances of
Christine being appointed today?

Very good, I think.

Excellent. That's one job we won't have
to replace.

Would you like to take a seat, please?
Thank you.

We are.

We are many.

Hi, everyone.

I'm Yvonne Hegarty, the headteacher.
First of all, welcome to Half Lock.

We'll get the tour of our excellent
facility started in just a second. I'm

you're very much looking forward to
that. But before we do, could Mrs.

make herself known to me, please?

That's me. Oh, can I have a quick word
through here?

Is there a problem?

No, no.

There's a slight problem with your
application form. You've ticked the box

regarding a criminal record.

Yes.

It's not actually a criminal record as
such, but... Yes, I did. Well, it is or

it isn't. Either way, I need to know.

But I thought the disclosure came at the
end of the interview process.

The disclosure is at the discretion of
the headteacher. My school, my rules.

Well, it was a domestic situation
involving my son.

I was fined for failing to reveal
information to the police.

Withholding evidence?

My son was under a lot of pressure at
school and our home situation was...

you, Christine. The governors and I will
take it into consideration post

-interview, shall we?

The reason I came to teach in a school
is simple.

This is where I get to fire your
imaginations.

Miss, that's cruel.

You shouldn't be allowed to bring that
into school. This animal died of natural

causes. It wasn't killed or experimented
on.

That's what they always say. Lula, I
wouldn't have brought it in if it had.

Scientists need to be able to study the
anatomy of animals to understand them.

Yeah, we can't help them if we don't
know what's wrong with them.

Exactly. And it actually brings us
closer to them.

Not that we're not already.

Everyone in this room shares an ancestor
with a fish.

What was it, miss?

It's a dolphin's brain.

And like us, it's an animal capable of
great empathy, even love.

I care about animals.

Deeply. You're still wearing cow on your
feet, miss.

Actually, no.

These are vegan, but 100 % synthetic
material.

The poem is really fast -paced, which
tells us she's excited about the idea of

poison in her victim.

She's totally ruthless and dead jealous.

And she calls herself a minion, which
could mean she's a lady -in -waiting or

servant.

Excellent, Imogen.

OK, er... Connor!

You got anything else to add?

What?

Well, you've turned up, I suppose.

Unlike some.

Timothy, where's Kevin today?

He was coming in sick, but there was a
flood in the flat, so he had to wait for

the plumber.

The plumber?

Yes, sir. When it gets difficult, you
tell him I want to see him, OK?

Quietly, please.

We'll discuss the themes of the poem
next time.

Great listening.

You work well, Lula.

I was the same when I was at school.
Always arguing with the teachers.

She's always banging on about the
animals.

She's nuts about them.

Nuts? Are you going to let them get away
with that?

Yeah, but she is, Miss.

On online forums, speaking to everyone
until like three in the morning every

night. Well, that's a bit excessive,
Lola.

If you want to study science, you need
your sleep.

Miss, just because he doesn't care about
anything except sports and computer

games. Well, maybe you should educate
him. Oh, that's what I want to do, miss.

But not just for him. I want to do it
for everybody.

Good.

Better get your next class.

All right, thank you, miss.

Bye.

Well, that's what you get for doing the
deity on him.

I never did the deity on him. He went to
prison, remember?

Will you help us get him to the house?

Me?

What about Kevin?

Barry's.

Steve, I will kill him.

You're scared of him.

I am too.

You're the only one that can help us.

I'll talk to him. But you know what he's
like.

Thanks. You're the best.

All right, mate.

Are you going to be anywhere near the
school today?

Why,

what's the problem?

Yeah,

no worries, mate.

Just got a bit of business with Connor
Mulgrew.

I'll be there shortly.

You're a rainbow. I told you.

Told me what?

There's more than a little bit of me in
you.

I hate to be no mother.

I hate to be no mother. There's your
change, your change.

I quit that, love. Thanks very much.

Everything in that box is a fiver, babe.

A fiver? I don't pay 25 pence for that
old thing.

Put it back, then.

It's all you want, Les. Just let me
know.

You've cleared me out.

That's not mine. You said you don't take
my stuff. That belongs to Mr. Burns.

So get him to pay your debt, then.

Go on, get lost.

Do you want?

Now.

All right, Barry.

All right.

Taking a bit of a risk, bringing your
knock -off gear down here, mate.

It's not knock -off.

It belongs to him.

Plus, I get a chance to see your sister.

Yeah.

Rodden says you scared the pants off
little Kev this morning.

Damn right I did.

I ain't finished with him yet.

Not by a long shot.

You don't want to end up back and sad.

I didn't see her chuck him in a week or
two. And then she'll come crawling back

to you. I don't mind doing time for you,
Sister Barry.

I love her.

Simple as that.

What do you want, lads?

A hammer, please.

It's a shame you're not a member of an
animal rights group. They can give you

much support.

But look, that's your decision. Maybe
you don't want to get involved to that

level. Yes, I do.

I've always wanted to join a group.

I even wanted to start a group here, but
I didn't think anyone would be

interested. Well, that's because you
haven't captured their interest.

If I told you there was a concentration
camp less than a mile from this school,

what would you say?

A concentration camp?

Yes.

Knox Pharmaceuticals. A research
facility where they torture rabbits and

pursuit of profits.

Oh, that's horrible.

And it's happening every day, right on
our doorstep.

And for what? So some multinational can
keep its shareholders happy? We can't

let this happen.

I wish it wasn't happening, but what can
we do? We can show people. People don't

want to see the message. They're only
interested in the end product.

Human interest always seems to take
precedence. But not if they know the

Well, raising awareness is no bad thing.
That's certainly true.

Yeah, so let me show them then.

I don't know.

I'm overstepping the mark. People need
to know what's going on in that place.

What are you suggesting?

I don't know, but I need to do
something.

What's your name?

Connor.

Connor!

What's wrong?

Nothing. It doesn't look like nothing.

Connor, I can see from your face there's
something wrong.

Is it to do with your mother?

Let's go somewhere and talk.

Look, I want money for a car.

A pick -up. I got trashed and I wasn't
insured and now I owe loads of money and

I... Hang on, slow down, all right?

You bought a pick -up?

Yeah, but the main thing, it was a write
-off and then I wasn't insured and now

I owe loads of money and I can't... How
much do you owe?

£2 ,000 to a bloke called Steve -O. £2
,000?

Yeah, something like that.

Well, I think we need to have a word
with Steve -O, don't you?

He's outside.

No.

Is Mr. Byrne in?

No.

Actually, I needed to speak to you, too.

There ain't really nothing to talk
about, is there?

I believe there is.

Could we?

Listen, we had a little fling, but
that's it, yeah?

I mean, it was fun when it lasted, but
it was hardly going to be the love

of the century.

I mean, I had an itch and you scratched
it, yeah?

I wanted you to hear it from me first.

When I first came here, it was you who
welcomed me.

You're beautiful.

And that's because you have a kind
heart.

And one day you are going to make
someone very happy.

But you see, I have found my happiness
with Audrey.

Which is why...

asked her to marry me.

Thanks for telling me.

Darling,

I'm pleased for you.

Thank you.

It means a lot.

Selling stuff that doesn't belong to you
is theft.

I didn't know it was yours.

He gave it to me.

Sorry.

How did he get into all this?

Steve -O.

The name Steve -O. And I was helping a
mate.

Isn't that right, Connor?

Well, it certainly seems that way.

Connor, can you go and get the rest of
her belongings and take them to my

office, please?

What do you think the police would make
of your little arrangement with Connor?

Just doing a bit of business.

Right. Well, you're dealing with me now.

Steve -o.

And I'm a different prospect altogether.

How much do you make out there?

About two -fifty.

You had some pretty nice stuff.

So, 250 off two grand, eh?

1750, eh?

Connor's debt paid in full.

I'm assuming you know how to write your
own name.

I can't take that.

I don't have a bank.

Well, get one. Unless you want the
police poking their noses into your

affairs.

There's a time limit on it. You've got
two seconds to take it or leave it.

I don't want to see you anywhere near
the school again, do you understand me?

No problem, boss.

Kevin, you'll get me into bother.

You've not been feeding yourself in that
flat.

Tom, er, my fault. The poor lad hasn't
had anything to eat.

I said it was a mistake, you moving out,
and this proves it. But you can't lie

in bed all morning and come in when you
feel like it.

Wasn't it skiving, sir, from this? Yeah,
you had a flood.

I had a problem, and I had to sort it.
Well, that's what we're here for.

You can't help me.

I wish you could, sir, but you can't.

I'll catch up on the schoolwork.

I'll do detentions or whatever.

Thanks, Mrs B.

Nice kid.

Yeah. With more responsibilities than
most 17 -year -olds.

Are you OK?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Listen... Tom, I'm fine. I'm busy. And
when I'm busy, I'm not thinking, and

is a good thing.

Hello?

OK.

Mrs Mulgrew, we'll hear your
presentation first.

Actually, I don't have one.

I mean, I don't need a computer or a
whiteboard. It's just me.

Oh, a chalk and talk candidate.

Don't see many of those nowadays.

No, no, I'm very capable of using
technology.

In fact, it's a vital part of my
lessons.

I just didn't want to hide behind any
gimmicks.

What you see is what you get.

I'd like to start by saying that nothing
a school does is more important than

delivering quality teaching in every
classroom.

As head of year, it would be my job to
secure that.

And I'm not talking about just good
teaching.

I'm talking about outstanding teaching.
Teaching that inspires children.

And it all starts with a love of
language.

I see myself as a defender of the faith.

English is under assault from incomplete
sentences, dropped participles and the

omnipresent misuse of the word like.

Yeah, they leave them in cages.

Millions of them. Cats, rabbits, even
monkeys.

Oh, that's sick.

How is that allowed in this country?
That's because animals don't have rights

this country.

Don't they sit on them to find cures for
diseases and stuff?

No. They test on them because it's
cheaper, and that way they can make more

money. Plenty of discussion going on
over there. I hope it's on task.

Actually, miss, we're talking about
animal rights and how some people think

okay to experiment on animals.

Ah, well, that's hardly relevant to
today's lesson now, is it? You know,

a laboratory a mile from here, and
that's where the torture... A topic for

another time.

So you don't care about tortured
animals? I do, as it happens.

But it has absolutely nothing to do with
our history class. Now, will you please

get back to your work?

Yes.

Yeah, pretend it doesn't happen. That's
everyone's reaction.

Well, not anymore.

I'm going to make sure everyone is aware
of what's going on in there.

Lula.

Describe a lesson that didn't go so well
for you. Did you blame the class or did

you look at your own planning and
delivery?

Well, I always look at my own input
first if a lesson doesn't go to plan,

students have their own responsibilities
and I make that very clear to them. Oh,

so it can be their fault as well?

If my lessons are exciting and
interesting and they choose to disrupt

yes.

Responsibility for that lies with them.

Sonia. I thought you might be peckish.

Oh, thank you.

Oh, you and Audrey.

Yes, we are very happy.

Bit of a shock.

You know, after everything.

Life moves on, Sonia.

For you and her, maybe, yeah.

What about me?

I'm just left.

No, please.

Come on.

Please. Look at me. Don't cry, okay?

Look at me.

You'll always be a special friend to me.

I don't want to be your friend.

What are you doing?

I have feelings for you and Dolly.

And I think you still have feelings for
me, too.

Don't, Sonia.

I told you, what happened between us is
over.

It's finished.

I'm with Audrey now.

But she's an old woman!

Why would you choose her over me?

Can you leave now, please? Just tell me.

I have to know.

I said leave. I don't want to talk to
you.

Yeah.

Well, you're going to have to.

And you're going to have to see me every
day.

He's heading all over the place.

What with the flat, his relationship
with Dennis there. I think things are

getting a bit much for him.

Well, I trust your judgement, Tom. I
think you're right. He's better off in

schoolhouse where we can keep an eye on
him.

Everything all right with Connor?

Oh, he's gotten into something way over
his head.

And if I'm totally honest...

I'm completely out of my comfort zone.

Listen, I've got seven teenagers to deal
with at the moment. You've got the one.

I'm sure you'll manage.

Thanks, Dom.

Donna?

Did you bring up the rest of your stuff?

There was nothing left, really.

Well, that's hardly surprising.

Now, look, I made a decision and paid
off the rest of that debt you owe.

Well, thanks.

Thank you so much. Well, you'll have to
pay me back, but you won't be seeing any

more of that, Steve. You have no idea
what this means.

Sorry.

I'll pay you back, I promise. There is
one condition. We have to talk to your

mother about it, all right? I don't want
any secrets from her.

We'll talk about it later.

Mr. Byrne, can I have a word, please?

Yeah, of course.

In private?

No more Sivo.

It's over, Imogen. Michael paid him off.

No way.

In full.

Obviously, I'm going to have to pay him
back, and Mum's going to find out, but

it's over.

What happened?

I just blurted it out, and then I
actually gave him a hug, Mr. Byrne. Do

believe that? Well, I'll have one as
well.

Look, seriously, no one has ever done
anything that nice for me before.

You coming, Imogen?

I said I'd have lunch with them. No, go
on. I'll catch you later.

It's really over?

I can't believe it.

I like them too. Yeah.

Right then, well, I'd better get off.
I'll see you later. See you later.

Take her to Kate for the new locks.
Okay, take them.

Take them.

Well, now, calm down.

What are we going to do?

If you get out, we'll have to go.

I want to work with me sister, mate.

I'll catch you.

Look, Steve -O's not going to back off.

And the only thing you can do is dump
Kevin.

And dump him quick.

When everyone knows that this is going
on just down the road, it's going to be

riot. That won't be a bad thing.

Here you go.

I'm fine, thanks.

Look, just try to remain calm and tell
me exactly when the assault happened.

Well, I wouldn't say it's an actual
assault.

Okay, what would you call it?

Well, it was... Grab me and try to kiss
me. Well, that's an assault. It's a very

serious matter. Mr. Byrne, I don't know.

What I'm saying is, maybe I'm making it
sound worse than it

is.

It was more of a bumping together type
thing.

Sonia, what exactly happened?

Well, I was in the cupboard.

Mm -hm.

And I turned round and I...

Face is kind of touched.

I've got a fright.

But did Indali sexually assault you? No.

I mean, I don't think so.

Listen, I'd like to withdraw my
complaint. I'll take it back, yeah? What

complaint? You haven't even told me what
you're supposed to have done.

Let's leave it at that, yeah?

Mind if I join you?

Of course.

How's it been going this morning?

Oh, great.

The kids are amazing.

Do you know, I knew when I first saw
you, you were a natural.

The students have such warmth here,
don't they? And when that's

they really respond.

Hey.

What did Barry want?

Not him.

Was it about Steve, though?

No, it was me mum.

She's been missing me and she wants me
home.

Are you going to go?

I don't know. I might.

Mr Clarkson's been in my case as well.

I think he wants me to move back to the
schoolhouse.

Maybe I should until all this blows
over.

What, are you scared or something?

Scared? No.

No. Well, that's what it sounds like.
You running back to the house for the

first time in trouble. I didn't say I
was going. Look, Kevin, maybe we should.

You know, I'm used to more macho blokes,
do you know what I mean?

What did Barry say to you? I just told
you.

Look, Kevin, you're a wimp.

No offence, but it's the truth.

What's going on, Dennis?

Are you finishing with me?

Yeah, I am.

Sorry.

I need a boyfriend that, you know, can
take care of himself as well as me.

I'll play myself tonight.

Kevin. Come here, Trouble.

That's easy.

He's a lucky lad, that Connor.

How long have you two been together?

What are you doing here? Did you take
his name?

Congratulations, by the way. Where did
you get that?

So he lives with his mum?

And Mum's boyfriend, the headmaster.

So where do you live? It's none of your
business.

Don't get strapped with me, love.

I can get photocopies of this sent out,
no problem.

All right.

All right, I'm sorry.

I live with my mum.

Look, please don't say anything.

Oh, she doesn't know you got married,
does she?

Don't worry.

Your secret's safe with me.

Just tell Connor I need to speak to him
when he finishes school.

I'll be down at the lock -up.

Smile!

Why stay?

Are you done?

What's wrong?

I finished with Kevin.

Oh, then why?

I had no choice.

Steve -O was going to put him in the
hospital.

What if I told you about him? He's a
complete scumbag. I don't need any

I'm really sorry.

You're not going to tell anyone, are
you?

Of course not.

What are you going to do now?

I don't know.

I haven't got my head around it yet.

You're not going back to him, are you?

As if.

He's a miserable lad.

ever met in my entire life.

I swear I've lived through diva, you
know.

It's not that bad.

I'll be alright.

I'll see you later.

She hates you, Connor.

And if she finds out we're married,
she'd do everything she could to stop us

seeing each other. But can't we just
move away?

Where?

With no money?

We don't know anyone.

I'm scared, Connor.

The guy is a total thug.

Would you just say what you want,
please?

Otherwise our life won't be worth
living.

Oh, Pete and Dolly.

Hey, Mr. Ben.

Listen, word to the wise, but maybe give
Sonia Donegan a wide berth.

Excuse me?

Could be a bit complicated, but I think
she has a little crush on you.

Just be careful.

Okay. Thank you for informing me.

It's just shock tactics.

Get over it. How'd you get over that?

That's the thing. That's what that is.
All right, the bell has gone.

Excuse me. Away from the wall. Will this
get to class?

Move away.

On you go.

Do we know who did this?

Yes. My money's on Lula to CB.

What is Knox Pharmaceuticals, anyway?

That's not far from here. Looks like we
have a young animal rights activist on

our hands.

Thanks for waiting, everyone.

We'd like to speak to Mrs. Mulgrew.

So what's so important?

I finished with Kevin.

Seriously? It's like having a little dog
following me round all the time.

What did he say about that?

Nothing.

Tired for a bit.

Look, I just want to thank Paddy for
blowing it out like that.

I can't care I was too happy about being
dumped for a little girl.

Oh, behave.

It was only doing it to make you
jealous.

Well, it worked.

What does this mean, we're back
together?

I'm here, aren't I?

I was thinking that...

Maybe we could head back to Liverpool.

Are you keen to finish school, though?

After I'm done, you should go first and
start that flat you were talking about.

Sounds good.

Maybe we could talk about it later.

Let's talk about it now.

I've got to get back to class.

OK.

Go tell him he's sick.

We'll go and get his stuff.

Go and find somewhere nice and then we
can talk about it all night.

Yeah.

Come on then, jump in.

School is no place to be airing your
political views in this manner.

All right, I admire your passion, but
this isn't the way to get your point

across.

Reasoned argument.

Debate.

That's how we reach understanding on
contentious issues like this one. That's

your opinion, Lula, and you're entitled
to it, but not everyone will agree with

you.

Now, you will each write a letter of
apology, and if I see any more of these

posters anywhere on school premises,
you'll face exclusion.

I got it.

I'm not apologising.

Luna, Mr Byrne put you in here not
because of what you believe, but because

what you did.

That's what the letter's about.

It's just a few posters, sir.

Shut up, will you? Just write it. You're
all right.

If I get excluded, I've got nowhere to
live.

OK, I'll write it, but I'm not
apologising for my belief.

For what it's worth, mate, I think
you're way better off without her.

She's a great -looking girl, don't get
me wrong, but she's not exactly in

your... What I mean is, intellectually,
you

and her are from South.

Do you know what I mean?

You telling me what you're talking
about?

She's broader than anyone I know. I
don't think she's thicker or anything.

go up, Jack?

She saw through me quick enough.

Jack? Robert?

No.

What do you mean?

Well, she didn't want to go out with me,
did she?

And why do you think that is?

Because I'm too clever?

Because my jokes are too funny? No, she
don't know because I'm a spineless

little coward and she didn't want that.

Kevin!

And you know what? I don't blame her.

When you've quite finished.

Like I say, you took my advice on the
lot.

I'll pack my stuff.

Come here, you.

Let's have a little play.

I thought you wanted to go somewhere.

No rush, is there?

We've got all the time we need.

You should get going.

I'm going to see what there is to drink.
You put some music on.

Just do it, will you?

Where's the glasses?

Far cupboard.

Where are you going, babe?

Nowhere. Just locking the door.

I thought you'd be happy for me. I am.
Of course I am.

I'm happy for you, but I can't say I'm
happy for the school.

This morning you said I needed to spread
my wings, challenge myself.

Well, that was before today.

Well, what happened today?

Let's just say I've had my own
challenges.

Isn't that just the way you like it?

You know the financial restrictions
Lorraine's putting us under, and what

Grantley's illness, I'm already an
experienced teacher down. Michael, I

accepted the post that... Well, then,
I'd like to formally offer you the head

Year 12 post.

Here.

Where's that come from?

I thought it was in your best interest
to leave, really, I did.

But I was wrong.

I know it's a mess, and I'm sorry, but I
need you here.

Are you saying you want me here because
of us?

Yes.

Of course that's what I'm saying.

Does this mean you'll take the job?

Absolutely.

We'll make a fantastic team.

I knew you'd come back to me.

What made you change your mind?

I told you I'd got bored.

Why have you been ignoring me all this
time?

Hiding from me. I haven't. I saw you
this morning.

Avoiding me at the school.

What's the matter?

Maybe I got it wrong.

No, thanks.

Yeah.

Anyway, none of that matters now, does
it?

Come and sit down.

Cheers.

Just like old times, innit?

Yeah. Drink up.

I love this song. It's all sex there.

Audrey, I need to talk to you. Yes, of
course.

I want us to announce our engagement,
formally.

Darling, I am just getting used to the
idea of us being a couple. In your

okay? Do you think it's right that we
are together?

Yes, of course. Then what's stopping us?

Look, I love you, okay? I just want
everyone else to know that.

Okay, that's good.

Later, yes?

Yes. Okay.

In the staff room?

Yes. Okay, see you later.

Come on.

Mr Clarkson, I saw what happened. Don't
worry. We've nipped it in the bud.

I told you not to put those images up,
Lula.

I feel a bit responsible. We had a
discussion about it in class this

I'm all right with passion, Lula, but
what you did was wrong. Hey!

Well done.

I live near that Knox factory. I don't
know the tortured animals. Yes, all

right, thank you. Off you go.

You see, everyone agrees.

I've had enough of this. Let's go.

Mr. Clarkson, perhaps when we see Mr.
Byrne you can get him to send Lola to my

lab. I'd like to show her the other side
of the argument.

Great.

Come

on,

let's go to the bedroom.

I'm not in the mood.

I'll get you in the mood.

What are you doing?

Sorry, this was a mistake. I shouldn't
have come here.

You invited me back.

I know, but... But? I know, but... Do
you know we're cut together?

Look, if I've let you on, I'm dead
sorry. I knew you was playing me.

Do I look like I was born yesterday?

How are you going to make it up to me?
Steve -o, I'm dead sorry. Stop saying

sorry!

You're not sorry!

I am!

Maybe.

I'm sorry.

Listen, I'm sorry for shouting at you.

I'm sorry. I just get stressed out.

Right,

Harley and Casey, these are good. You
can go back to class.

Lula's convinced she's got nothing to
apologise for.

Fortunately, Miss Fairclough's going to
speak to her.

Good. As a scientist, perhaps she can
persuade you to look at all the evidence

before you reach a conclusion. Go and
see her, please.

What a day.

Well, some good news.

Kevin Shaw's moving back to the
schoolhouse.

Good.

Excellent work, Tom.

I'll tell you first.

I'm going to appoint Christine as head
of year 12.

Opinions?

Be honest.

Well, she doesn't strike me as the
pastoral sort. I take it she didn't get

Havelock job. No, no, actually she did,
but between you and I, Lorraine's

planning further staff cuts. Christine
wouldn't have been replaced.

Well, it'll do a good job.

Give you more chance to see each other.

I'm not doing it for that, believe me.

Bye, babe.

Come in, Lilla.

Could you close the door, please?

I'm sorry if it seemed like I wasn't
supporting you, Lola. I have to be a

teacher first. I can't get involved with
things that draw attention to me.

You're like my little secret weapon. My
eyes and my ears.

And we're going to need them.

Do you know who the biggest investor in
Knox Pharmaceuticals is?

The person most responsible for the
torture and suffering in that hellhole.

Lorraine Donegan.

Thoroughly well -deserved.

Thanks, Audrey. That means a lot.

OK, that's it, folks.

Actually, no, Michael, I haven't...
Well, we have an announcement to make.

I know when Ndali first arrived at
Waterloo Road, there were a few

raised eyebrows at our close friendship.

Well... I'm delighted to announce we're
engaged to be married.

Congratulations.

Congratulations, Audrey.

Thank you.

And Ali.

Congratulations. Thank you, sir.

Not for you, then, eh?

No. The old saying, marry in haste,
repent at leisure.

Well, I think that maxim applies to a
younger generation than mine.

Tom, I've just heard from the hospital.
I think that Grantley's coming round.

Maggie, that's brilliant.

Did you hear that, everyone?

Grantley's coming round. That's the best
news ever. Oh, that's brilliant.

Well,

you know what they say. Good news comes
in dreams.

I think we need to talk about Connor.

Thank you. Could I have a minute? Thank
you.

You see, I haven't met

your little wife's mum.

But I don't think she'd like it if this
dropped through the letterbox.

Look, you've got your money, so why are
you still hassling me? I still haven't

forgiven you for letting old Bernie boy
know about our little arrangement.

That was our secret, Connor.

So what do you want from me now? I don't
know yet.

I need time to think about it.

Then you'll give me that back, yeah?

Yeah.

No problem.

Go on, then.

Off you pop.

I'll give you a lift with your stuff if
you like.

No, thanks, sir.

I'll go by later.

Okay.

Well, I'm here if you need to talk.

Maggie?

How is he?

Well, seems it was just a reflexive
muscle thingy.

He isn't coming out of it.

Oh, I'm sorry.

But he's going to be all right, you
know. I mean, he's still fighting.

I wish I could believe that, Tom.

Truth is, I don't think he's going to
make it.

Maggie, I've had some good meetings.

But I found out earlier you said I'd
make an ideal donor.

I'll never, ever be able to thank you
enough for this.

It'll be the first thing I tell Brantley
when he wakes up. Yeah, exactly. Look,

and we'll both be there for three weeks.
So come on, chin up. Let's be positive,

eh?

You're right.

You're absolutely right.

I'm going to get the kids' tea started.

I know.

In every way.

Stop Animal Crossing!

You have it on your head!

Stop Animal Crossing!

We're to be a fee -paying school.
There's no other way, Michael.

I've never been a bridesmaid. I would be
delighted and honoured. What are you

doing? Are you trying to destroy the
wedding?

You are, aren't you?

Don't say that, Williams.

We can deal with him ourselves.

What, like fight him?

No. Well, what then?

You can take him out.

Kevin is going to ask you to do
something for him.

We want you to get hold of a gun.
