DHRUV: I know that Kishan Law will be safe with both of you

at the helm. I didn't even know what he wanted.

Taking over from Dad has been my dream.

So him putting someone else there,

regardless of who that is, is heartbreaking.

My client leaving the family home is just not possible.

Well, he should have thought about that before

he cheated on me, then filed for bloody divorce!

Nobody will love Charvi and Danny

more than you and Michael. They need you both.

I'm sorry. All right?

I shouldn't have done the video on your client.

I don't want any of this.

Just you go back to your world and I'll go back to mine.

I'm sorry I gave you the impression

that I have feelings for you, because I don't.

You don't feel anything when we're like this?

Maybe it's time that you need to think about

a different type of future.

You will do well to remember you're an employee. Just an employee.

Good to see you. And you.

You know, I would hate to have to do anything

to destabilise your set-up here.

Why is my dad giving Zoya Bassu 200 grand?

Is he seeing her?

DOOR OPENS, FOOTSTEPS

Hi there. This is Aria Kishan.

I'm running a background check on Zoya Bassu.

I understand she was a recent employee of yours.

I'm not looking for confidential information,

I just...

No, no, I understand.

Yeah, I get it.

Aria!

There's not much in there other than

old legal papers and Post-it notes, love.

What are you looking for?

Do you know when he's due in?

Um, not till later on this morning.

He's got that hearing with Kav.

What hearing?

Oh, I'm sure he'll tell you about it when he gets here.

Hmm.

Well, I don't know about that.

He seems to be keeping a lot to himself these days.

Look, I know he's been a bit prickly lately,

but to be fair, it's not been an easy few months, has it?

Has he been having meetings with Zoya Bassu?

Mm, not that I'm aware of. Why d'you ask?

They just seem to know each other better than I thought.

Mm.

Yeah, I-I don't know, love.

I think maybe you'd better ask him that yourself.

OK?

DOOR OPENS AND CLOSES

Hi. It's me again. Where the hell are you?

You might be family,

but Dad's patience is wearing thin, Uncle Rhik.

Please just call me back when you get this,

you grumpy old git.

Managed to locate your client, Mr Kishan?

Mr Dasani sends his profuse apologies.

Unfortunately, he was taken ill early this morning.

But that doesn't change the facts of the case.

Miss Lester effectively washed her hands

of Bickerton Lane Farm

when her late husband left her for my client.

Irrelevant. John and Maggie were still married

at the time of his passing.

Mr Kishan is unsurprisingly exaggerating

his brother-in-law's claim on the farm,

when in fact it belongs to my...

Agricultural land may be passed to a spouse

or family member by verbal agreement.

Such an agreement did exist

between Mr Lester and Mr Dasani,

who furthermore maintains

that a will to that effect also exists.

Which he has yet to produce.

I would ask you to please consider a stay on eviction,

at least until my client has recovered his health.

Given the lack of a will, Mr Kishan,

I see no reason to continue blocking Ms Lester's

inheritance of the property.

Sir, I would ask you... I'll allow 24 hours

for you to persuade your client

to vacate peacefully, Mr Kishan. Otherwise,

Ms Lester's free to have the possession order enforced.

I can head there straight away.

Don't you think you've done more than enough?

Dad, I told him to be here at 8:30.

Well, you should have gone to pick him up yourself.

A sudden illness?

You really think any of us actually believe that bollocks?

Without Rhik, that farm would have turned to wilderness.

Expecting him to walk away with nothing?

That's much less than he deserves.

And what about what I deserve

after everything that I've been through?

It's not Rhik's fault that John chose him over you.

Oh...

..you...

If I was your client, or your relative,

what would you have me do then?

Walk away from what was rightfully mine?

I don't know how you can live with yourself.

Dad!

Come on. That was a little bit harsh, no?

Harsh? Yes, harsh.

How are you ever going to win if you're not prepared to fight?

Based on the length of the marriage and my childcare responsibilities,

I'm not going to accept anything less than a 70/30 split

in my favour. Zoya and Michael will argue

that your needs could reasonably be met by 50/50.

Absolutely not.

I've argued 80/20 before in that Newman case

in 2016. And we can remind them that

Michael had his opportunity for an easy divorce,

but he turned it down. Yeah.

I'm not convinced that's going to make much of a difference.

It's going to come down to what both parties need to move forward.

And his finances are not in great shape, as we know.

If you hadn't stopped working when you did...

Er, I had to. Danny needed me.

No, my point is that we can say you sacrificed your career

in favour of family life.

First, when Charvi was born,

you cut your hours and gave up your plan to pass the bar.

Then Danny was born, you left work altogether...

OK, yeah. We can argue that the settlement

needs to reflect my contributions to the marriage.

Exactly. We're still going to need

some pretty exceptional circumstances

for a judge to make that award.

My instinct?

Go softly. Oh, Neal...

Don't piss him off. Focus on the house first,

and then we can hash out the rest later.

He doesn't deserve anyone to go softly on him

after what he's done.

And respectfully, that is why I'm representing Maya.

This isn't something the two of you can see impartially.

FOOTSTEPS

Dad wants to talk to us.

OK, let's review this later.

Are you all right? We haven't got anywhere.

Um, Kav? Mm?

Uh, why was Ashok there last night?

There something going on with you two?

No.

Not any more.

OK. Um, so it's your Uncle Rhik.

I've been helping him with

the probate issue to do with the farm.

There was a court hearing this morning.

In fact, Kav can send you the transcript.

Hold on.

The two of you have been representing Uncle Rhik

in court and haven't said one word of it to any of us?

You had enough going on. I didn't want to concern you.

But things have now escalated. He didn't show up this morning,

and he's now not returning any of our calls.

And it appears that he's allowed

the farm to fall into total disarray.

But he loves that place.

What about that nurse? Is she not still going round?

I spoke to her this morning.

Said he dismissed her a few months ago

and insisted he was fine on his own.

I should have gone up there and spoken to him.

He would have listened to me.

Which is exactly what I want you to do now.

Go there and try and persuade him to see sense.

He's got 24 hours before he's forcibly removed.

Well, she can't go now.

We've got the meeting with Zoya.

I'm sure Neal's got everything in hand, haven't you?

Yeah. Yeah, of course.

Look...

You both know that your mother wouldn't want

anything to happen to Uncle Rhik.

OK.

Aria.

Take Luke with you.

SHE SCOFFS

That won't be necessary.

A more objective viewpoint may help Rhik see sense.

You'll need this.

I'll drive.

You really don't need to come.

Your dad told me you'd say that.

Well, I'm taking my car. Great.

Gives me time to read the file en route.

Look, if you were offended by what I said last night,

I was just trying to be honest.

You could have just told me

that my dad was gifting Zoya 200 grand.

Yeah, I'm not going to discuss confidential material with you.

He's my dad.

He has a right to privacy

in his professional and personal dealings.

So it is personal, then?

Is he having an affair with her?

I don't go around asking my boss who he's sleeping with.

And...even if he was, if it makes him happy,

wouldn't you want that for him?

Just get in the car.

What is going on with your uncle?

Four missed court dates? Yep.

When was the last time you were down here?

About a year ago.

So your mum and Rhik were close.

When he left his wife for John,

most of the family cut him off, but my mum didn't.

She supported him.

So she approved of his decision?

Well, he had an arranged marriage when he was 21.

Uh-huh.

She was happy that he...

..took the chance at love when he got it.

Is that what you would have done?

We weren't talking about me. No, I know,

I'm just curious. It's a pointless question.

Why is it pointless? Because it's hypothetical.

OK, so hypothetically, then.

Don't you have reading to do?

It's just like any other assessment meeting, Maya.

Yeah, except it's my husband on the opposing side.

Point taken.

Zoya, Michael, thanks for coming in today.

Er, no. No, not at all.

Always nice to be thrown into a den of venomous solicitors.

To keep it brief, we'd like to make it clear

that any settlement will require the house to go to Maya

in its entirety. It's far too early in the process

for us to be conceding the marital home.

Why? He's only going to have the kids part-time.

He's never home before 9pm. Well, you're back at work now.

You don't think you're gonna have long days?

We are open to discussing, of course,

but we would have to factor in

the settlement of the liabilities alongside.

No judge will hold Maya accountable

for Michael's gambling debts.

No, but there are considerable repayments

on loans taken out for

the refurbishment of the kitchen, school fees...

You took out loans?

Where do you think it all came from, Maya?

We haven't had the documentary evidence,

and until we do, these will be disregarded.

Maya is over-housed in the FMH.

I think the best and fairest way

to meet the needs of both parties

would be to sell the family home.

Michael.

Unless there are other avenues to explore.

I am aware that Maya

has significant family resources she can rely upon.

You broke up this marriage.

You cannot expect my family to pay off your debts.

Hang on a minute. You enjoyed our lifestyle too, right?

And maybe if your dad hadn't been so keen

on us keeping up appearances,

I could have stayed on as a full-time barrister

and not taken such a pay cut.

But no, no, no, the idea of a judge in the family

was just too alluring.

I suggest we reconvene tomorrow when I have a clearer picture.

Neal. Neal, wait.

Listen, I, uh...

I just wanted to say,

I didn't mean for any of this to happen.

Don't, Michael, OK? Just don't.

You're a fully grown man who's fucked up enormously.

And now? You expect your wife and children to pay for it?

Why don't you come back to me when you've been married

into this family for over a decade?

There are certain expectations to be met.

Unreasonable.

All we're asking for is a little compassion

and understanding. Just a little time to...

Yes. Yes, please call me back.

GROANS

KNOCKS

You OK?

Ah! Zoya.

Good. Um... I wanted to

get in contact. Would you join me for lunch today?

1pm, Chez Louise?

Um...yeah, fine. OK.

See you there. See you.

I didn't realise you had time in your schedule for a lunch date.

Um, Linda. Um...

I've been meaning to say

that I was out of line at the awards ceremony.

You know, it's not my kind of place. I'm...

I'm not comfortable with those...

But maybe I was a little... It's "sorry".

The word that you're desperately searching for.

Yes. I'm sorry, Linda.

You know, I know that you've had a really rough time lately,

and God knows I have been as supportive as I can be.

Oh, you have.

But not even my own father has spoken to me like that.

And if you ever do it again, I'll be handing in my notice.

I understand.

Good.

I'll make you that lunch date.

Thank you. You're welcome.

WINCES

Uncle Rhik?

Maybe try calling him again? Yeah.

LINE RINGS

PHONE RINGING INSIDE

His phone's on the table.

Well, he might still be inside, no?

He's always out on the land.

Uncle Rhik?

Er, what exactly is the plan here?

He has diabetes, and he doesn't look after himself.

He might have collapsed. It's freezing.

Well, hold on. How big is this place?

You can stay here if you like.

Uncle Rhik?

Thank you for coming.

Um...

We didn't finish our conversation last night.

I felt it was pretty complete.

Look, we both know

that you can't go on representing Michael.

It would just be easier if you went back to London.

Easier for who?

Look, the money - that's all I can do right now.

You're joking, right?

200K?

That's loose change for someone like you.

I'm about to retire. Congratulations.

Do you know how difficult it was to raise that money?

Come on, Mr Dhruv Kishan here.

I'm sure you can find a way.

A man of your resources?

Why are you doing this to me?

I have kept every promise.

So you keep saying.

But for once,

this is not about you.

My marriage fell apart.

Yes. I was sorry to hear that.

Look, this is not easy for me, OK?

Believe me.

And I would not be coming to you for help

if I didn't really need it.

So please, take the money and go and live your life.

No.

I want what I am owed.

And if you have trouble remembering...

..maybe this will help.

Enjoy your lunch.

Michael's trying to argue that they sell the family home.

No.

No, he would not do that to Maya and the kids.

He has some debts that he has to reconcile.

Do me a favour, mate. Go through his recent investment disclosure

and highlight anything of interest.

Yeah? I don't get it.

Michael may have fucked up, but he's still Michael.

Surely he can be reasoned with. Why didn't they try mediation?

It just isn't effective when there's a lack of good faith.

That's when it's most beneficial.

If we could get them both in a neutral environment

and really have them listen to each other,

it could make a difference.

They don't need to tear each other apart.

You know, the Northern Law School offers a pretty good

master's in mediation and dispute resolution.

Thanks, Neal, but it's not exactly like uni

was a walk in the park for me.

It's different when you're invested.

You've said yourself you don't enjoy litigation

or the more hostile parts of negotiation.

Maybe this is a way for you to find your place in law.

One second.

I really don't want pizza for dinner again.

I want chana.

I think your dad might struggle with chana, love,

but you could maybe try pesto pasta?

Hey, guys.

Well, come on then, where are my hugs? Come on.

Oh, I missed you, mate.

You hungry?

What's for dinner?

Uh...

Chilli. Yum!

Wash your hands, please. Bye.

WATER RUNS

Is it from a jar? Oh, yeah. Yeah.

I'm just gonna pick up some stuff.

Er, yeah. Sure. Go on. Grab what you need.

Er, yeah, I will.

It is still my house.

For now.

Uncle Rhik!

Aria, he's not out here. Uncle Rhik!

Please, will you take my scarf?

No.

You can borrow my scarf and still be a strong,

independent woman, I promise.

I should have come here earlier to check on him.

What if something's happened?

Don't even think that way, OK? He's probably...

No trespassers!

You've got ten seconds to get off my land.

Uncle Rhik! It's me.

Aria? Is that you?

ARIA LAUGHS

What the hell are you doing in my barn?

Looking for you!

Oh...

Aria Kishan. Please leave a message.

Aria, have you found him yet?

Tell him it's bloody important.

And call me back, for God's sake!

GRUNTS

PANTS AND GROANS

Linda!

Linda!

Oh, my God. Are you OK?

It's my chest. I can't breathe.

Dhruv, I'm here. I'm gonna call an ambulance.

Come on.

The doctor said that if you didn't keep on top of

your insulin, that you could lose your sight.

I'm managing fine.

You're not, though, are you?

I can see. It's just...

It's just like the lights have all dimmed.

It's not as bad as it looks.

It's only gonna get worse.

This must be John.

Yeah.

In Devon. We used to go every year.

Lunatic actually put cream before jam on the scone.

Be warned. That's his home brew.

I presume you've come down here to break the bad news.

The court sided with Maggie.

They want you out tomorrow morning.

Your dad said he would sort it.

You didn't attend a single hearing.

John left his share to me.

In a will that we can't find.

The solicitor sent it back to John after the close-down,

but he never told me where he put it.

But it's definitely here somewhere.

OK.

OK!

Um...

Well, I'll stay and search.

Why don't you take my car

and I can get a cab to pick me up in the morning?

Well, I could stay and help.

I don't need help.

No, not you - Uncle Rhik.

Rhik, would you like me to stay and give you a hand?

Yeah, I would. Thanks. Yeah.

I'll stick tea on.

OK.

Found it.

Kidding.

DOOR CLOSES

You fixed the light.

Huh? The light in the bathroom.

I was on at you for months.

Oh.

More time now, I guess.

You, er, you hungry?

Made plenty.

Er, no.

I've got a petition to do for the morning.

Oh, OK.

You, uh... You look good.

I mean, you always look good, but...I don't know.

Being back at work suits you.

I didn't realise how much I missed it.

Maybe you should have never given it up.

No, I just mean...

Maybe you would have been happier, that's all.

I wasn't the unhappy one.

No.

Yeah.

Michael...

Er, thanks. Yeah.

OK.

SIGHS

PHONE CHIMES

No, no, weapons down. I'm off duty.

As am I. Just coming for a refill.

OK. Well, in that case, what can I get you?

Er, same again? Yeah. Me, too, please. Thank you. No problem.

Where is your fiancee this evening?

She is trying to track down an elusive client.

Left me to my own devices. Oh!

Good. Thank you.

Thank you. You can save me

from a scintillating conversation about

whether the new version of the 11B form is better than the old one.

Eric. Yeah.

Zero game. Zero.

Oh, thank you. Cheers, mate. Thank you.

Pool?

Mm. Er...yeah, sure.

Why not? All right.

Better be quick. Incoming!

Bye.

You didn't have to wait.

Oh, don't be silly. Of course I did.

So, have they given you the all-clear, then?

SIGHS

I thought I was dying.

I know. I know.

Who starts having panic attacks in their 60s?

Do you know what? Lots of people.

Yeah? Yeah.

Supposing it happens again?

Sit down. Go on, sit down.

Right.

Gary used to do so many things that drove me mad.

He'd leave cold cups of coffee in random places.

He'd never ask for directions, no matter how lost we were.

And he drank my rose when all his beer had gone,

even though he didn't even bloody like the stuff!

And then...

..about a year after he passed...

..I was stood in Lidl and I realised

that I'd put a six-pack of his Manchester Union in my basket.

And I, um...

..I just burst into tears.

And the young 'un behind the till,

she didn't know where to look.

Anyway.

My point is...

..grief, anxiety, stress...

..you either have to face it or it will find its own way out.

Right. Come on, then, let's get you home.

I don't want the kids to worry.

Oh, don't worry, my lips are sealed.

I honestly don't know what I'd do without you.

Bloody hell.

What drugs did they give you?

I like this fella.

He's able to keep you in your place.

I don't know what you're on about.

Mm. I'm not that blind.

You know I'm getting married. Yeah, of course.

Dhruv must be chuffed.

Two pillars of Manchester's Asian community coming together.

He'd be happy whoever I chose.

Well... Just...

When you push two things together for long enough,

they stick, don't they?

Just don't settle.

Nothing but heartbreak that way lies.

Don't have any doubts about what might have been.

OK. There's not much more

in there except old books and about 30 VHS tape recordings

of Goodness Gracious Me.

Still cracks me up.

OK, let's focus, guys. We've still got a lot to get through.

She wasn't always like this.

She used to be fun.

Naughtiest kid I ever knew.

Oh, yeah? Mm.

Oh, my God.

I found it.

I found it!

This means you can stay.

ARIA LAUGHS

Thank you.

To finding lost things.

Ah! That'll be the generator.

We'll let it cool down, and I'll reset it in the morning.

Er, I could put the fire on in the guest room.

OK. Be careful. I can manage.

Did he say "room"?

Mm.

OK.

I'll sleep on the floor. It's fine.

I'll try and resist you.

Look what I stole.

Is that a good idea?

Oh, look who's no fun now.

I just want to keep a clear head.

So, er, your uncle and John, they had a good thing, huh?

Mm. Yeah, he was very lucky to meet him.

How did your parents meet?

Um, my dad worked at a corner shop at uni,

and my mum went in to buy some eggs,

and they ended up having a huge fight about Maggie Thatcher.

Oh, really? Yeah.

She said that he was the most obnoxious, arrogant man

that she'd ever met.

And then she went in the next day and gave him her number.

Mm, Dhruv.

Mm. How about yours?

Uh...yeah.

My dad came to the UK on holiday when he was 22,

and he saw my mum in a pub, and at the end of the night...

...he asked her to marry him.

The same night? Yeah.

What did she say?

She said, "Come back tomorrow and ask me when you're sober."

And he did.

She said yes.

Wow.

Are they still together?

Mm-hm.

And yet you have no faith in marriage?

No. I have faith in two people

that commit to each other because they want to.

I don't think you need marriage for that.

What about when we first met?

What were your first impressions?

You know...

..I just can't remember.

Blimey, look at you.

Wasted in law.

You know, when my dad passed, my uncle, he had no clue how to

talk to me, so dragged me out to pool halls instead.

But I've always been hopeless.

Yeah. I...

I lost my dad young also. So...

I'm sorry.

But I guess that's one thing you'll gain in marriage, though, right?

Dhruv as a father figure.

Yeah. Yeah. I mean, he's a brilliant man.

It can be a lot sometimes, working with the family.

24/7 Kishan in surround sound.

Mm.

I worked with my ex-husband in his family's firm.

It went down in flames, but, er...

Wasn't all bad, though.

I got a beautiful daughter from it.

She's gorgeous. Yeah.

She's in London with her father.

Must be hard, being away from her.

Yeah, you've...

You have no idea.

SHE CLEARS HER THROAT

Do you think if the two of you hadn't worked together,

that maybe things would have played out differently?

I don't know. Perhaps.

Listen, I... I'm sure you will be

a far more supportive husband than mine ever was.

Yeah.

Er, Zoya, I'm sorry. Can I take a raincheck on the game?

There's just something I need to do.

Oh, yeah. Sure. No problem.

I think you would have beaten me anyway. Yeah. That's true.

Oh, um, by the way, we're having a joint hen-stag do -

they call it a fox party - tomorrow night.

You should come, if you don't have any other plans.

That's very kind. Um...

..I'll try to pop in.

Great.

Ashok?

What are you doing here?

I'm on a date.

Didn't think he was your type.

What, you think I only go for insecure, neurotic legal boys?

Just an observation.

Well, this was fun. I won't keep you.

No, hang on a minute.

For the record,

I do have my shit together.

Good to know.

Why don't you believe me?

Why does it matter to you whether I do or don't?

You've made it clear how you feel about me.

I'm just returning the compliment.

Just because you think you're the guru on self-realisation

doesn't mean you can go around schooling other people.

No, no, Kav! It's because I actually like you,

and I thought you could do with hearing

something told to you straight for once.

Dealing with my family wasn't easy, you know.

They didn't talk to me for three years.

But fuck it. At least they know who I am now.

And, yeah, I don't think you have your shit together,

because you're still hiding, mate.

I'm not hiding.

I'm just selective about who I let in.

Yeah, sure. Because it's easier to be alone

than risk being hurt, right? No, I'd rather be alone

than operate my love life with a one in, one out policy.

Night, Kav.

Safe home, yeah?

Luke?

I don't believe you.

About what?

That you don't remember.

When we first met?

You know.

I don't know what I'm doing.

Sorry. I think I should, um... Mm-hm.

HE SIGHS

Yeah. Yeah.

DOOR CLOSES

KNOCKING

Neal. Come in.

Everything OK?

I just wondered if we could have a chat.

Uh, now's not a good time... I think we might have made a mistake.

Ever since your announcement at the chunni,

things just haven't been the same with Aria.

And I know you said she just needs time,

but I don't think that's gonna make much of a difference.

Look, I said something like this might happen

way back when we first discussed this.

Yeah, yeah, I know. But she would be devastated

if she knew I'd been lying to her all this time.

I can't risk losing her over this.

OK. Just... Neal.

You know I've always thought of you as a son.

Yeah, yeah, I know.

Well, there...

There might be things coming down the line

and I need to know that you will be standing by Aria

if they should materialise.

Can you at least tell me what they are?

I...

I will, but I just can't right now.

Goodnight.

RHIK SHOUTS: Just get off my land.

It's not your land.

The bailiffs are gonna be here in ten minutes.

Do you really want to be seen brandishing a weapon?

Let's just calm down. The absolute state of this place!

What have you been doing? We have new information, Maggie.

MAGGIE SIGHS

Not this bloody imaginary will business again.

We found it.

You really expect me to believe that

after all the shit your dad talked in court?

Maggie.

We did find it.

Why don't we all go inside and you can see it for yourself?

Thank you.

Yeah. Um...

About last night. No.

It's fine. Don't... Don't worry about it.

Aria Kishan. Please leave a message.

Hey, Aria. Just, uh, give me a call back when you can, OK?

Morning. How was the handover?

All OK?

Er, yeah, fine.

Um...

I heard you and Dad talking last night.

Maya... You said you were

as shocked as us when he announced that you and Aria

were gonna take over the firm together.

You've been keeping this from her for months. Maya, listen.

OK? Your dad came to me after your mum died.

He was worried the pressure would be too much for Aria.

So why didn't he talk to her about it, then?

He thought she wouldn't accept the offer, or the help.

If it's any consolation, I didn't feel good about any of it.

You need to talk to her.

I need you to take a look at this.

Yeah. What is it, Kav? It's the trust fund

Mum set up for Danny and Charvi's education.

Did you move the money? No. Why?

It's been drained.

Surely he wouldn't have.

I'm gonna kill him.

Maya... Maya, wait. No.

So I take it your sight

is the reason the place is falling apart?

And why you haven't read any of the letters from the bank.

What about them?

I found out this morning.

The loan John took out against the farm?

There hasn't been a repayment in months.

Once I get this place up and running,

once I get it back up on its feet...

We are out of time.

Our only chance of walking away with anything

is to sell, quickly, before they repossess.

Repossession isn't always immediate. Yeah, you might qualify for

debt respite, considering your sight loss.

Even then, we can't make the repayments.

My business has collapsed,

and the farm clearly isn't profitable.

You bought this place with John.

You know what it meant to him.

You know...

...when he left me for you...

..I didn't just lose a husband.

I lost my best friend.

And in time, I realised that's all we'd been for years.

Friends.

I was just too scared to admit that to either of us.

But he was brave to do what he did,

and I loved him right to the end.

So it breaks my heart to see this place go.

OK, look, I know how hard this must be.

And John... John would not want you to be holding on

to something that isn't working any more.

Maybe it's time to let go.

Hiya, John.

Michael! The kids' trust fund?

That was their education, their future. How could you?

Can we not do this now, please?

What did you do? Gamble it on a horse? Poker? No.

That was my mum's money, and you had no right.

Let me explain, please. I just...

I'm going to crucify you for this.

It's a new low, even for you.

Look, the place isn't gonna sell overnight.

You still have time, and you always have a home with us.

Are you sure you two won't stay another night?

I've... Got work.

Yeah. So...

Take care of yourself, Rhik.

Oh! Really lovely to meet you.

It's a pleasure. Yeah.

And I have my hen do tonight.

Sort of.

Thank you, love.

Don't make the same mistake I did.

I mean it.

CAR UNLOCKS

Er, have you spoken to Neal?

No. I was gonna catch up with him at the party. Why?

Michael has drained the kids' account.

No. Maya.

Yeah. I know it's an addiction, but...

You're allowed to be angry. Yeah. I am really fucking angry.

What's going on here? We're being angry.

Huh. Cool. Taxi's on the way.

I'm not dressed yet.

Don't worry. We need to set up anyway. Just take your time.

Do not, under any circumstances, take your time.

HINDU POP MUSIC

You made it!

Look at your hair!

CHEERING

This is amazing, Kav!

Yeah? Yeah.

You thought I was gonna get you a stripper, didn't you?

Yeah. Where are they? The night's still young, baby girl.

Mwah. I'm gonna get you a drink, all right?

You doing OK? Uh...

I really don't want to talk about it.

We're not talking about it.

I really need to have fun tonight.

What the fuck is this? It's a fox party!

And... Really?

Oh, oh!

It's huge. I feel like J-Lo.

How do you actually make that look chic?

That is not fair. Hello, foxy.

How are you feeling? I'm gonna get shots.

Wow, you're already drunk. No! No, no, no, I'm not.

I'm not. But I will be.

THEY LAUGH

When I commit to something, I'm all in.

I missed you last night.

Mm. Sorry I had to stay over.

I just had the images in my head of you

sitting round a fire, bored out of your mind.

Pretty dull. Pretty dull.

Shots! Shots! Shots! Shots!

Everyone grab one, everyone grab one!

To the happy couple!

CHEERING

CHARVI: Grandad? Are you OK?

Oh, yes, beti, yeah. I was just...

Just thinking of your nani.

I thought it would get easier every time

I came into this room, but it still makes me so sad.

Yes.

You know, you were her favourite.

It's true!

She was so proud of you.

I just don't want to let her down.

No, no, it's not possible.

When your nani loved someone, she loved them unconditionally,

despite their flaws.

I should know - I have plenty of them.

That's true. Oi! Cheeky.

You know what she would like?

If we tried every day to be the best versions of ourselves.

Deal? Deal.

DANCE MUSIC THUMPS

Hey. Can I have a quick word?

Come on, let's have a quick word here.

Love you! I love you, too, mate.

Don't take her away!

Boring! Boring!

I am, you know.

Devoted to you.

Yes, you have made that pretty clear.

Which is why I want to tell you something.

I haven't been honest with you.

Your dad, he...

He told me he wanted me to run the firm with you months ago.

But you said... I know. I know, I know.

And I never, I never wanted

to blindside you, Aria. It's just...

It's just your mum had died,

and we were just trying to find the right time.

And I just want to support you, Aria. I just want to support you.

I don't know when we started lying to each other.

No.

No, Aria, just...

Hey, Mr Sharma!

Dance floor now! Come on!

MUFFLED MUSIC

Hi.

I hope it's not weird that I'm here.

Neal invited me.

You look stunning, by the way.

Are you and my dad having an affair?

What?

Uh, OK, I-I-I don't know what you have heard, but...

Are you crazy? OK. Because, honestly,

honestly, please. I can't take any more lies from anyone.

So if you have just a shred of respect

for me, just tell me the truth.

We're not having an affair.

Then what is it between you two?

He's, um...

He's...

..my father.

I...

I was going to tell you, I...

Not... Not tonight, I...

But I was. Aria...

Ar...

MUSIC: Hurricane by Jasmine Jethwa

Hey.

Hey.

Er, is everything OK?

I've been unfair on you.

But in my defence...

..I wasn't expecting any of this.

I'm sick of not knowing who I can trust.

You know you asked me if I

feel anything when I'm with you?

Yeah.

Yeah. You didn't answer.
