Have you signed it yet? Not yet.
Kate! Of course, you know Nathan.

Nathan's told me so much about you.

The principle at the heart of any
decent family lawyer is

the quest for the "good" divorce.

He wasn't supposed to
fall for someone else.

SHE SOBS

Sure you're not free later?

I need to know I can trust you.

Leni, always.

I'm leaving you.

I can't tell her.
I just can't do it.

A baby...

I'm sorry. You're going
to make the best dad, Jimbo.

I'm so sorry, Rose. It's James.

It's OK, Hannah. I'm here.

I'm not going anywhere.

THUNDER RUMBLES

Right,
let's get all this inside.

INDISTINCT CONVERSATION OUTSIDE

Thanks.

Yeah, sorry, can you grab that?

Tilly, can you get off
the trampoline?

Goodbye. Oh, bye. Thank you.

DOORBELL RINGS

Laters.

Buddy, er, listen,
I was saying to Tilly -

Friday, we could get some takeaway.

Disappearing again, Dad?

PHONE CHIMES

Have they gone?

Yeah, the last ones are
just leaving now.

And James's parents?

Did you tell them I was sorry?

Yeah.

And he said that, erm...

DOOR CLOSES

..she'll call you tomorrow and to
say it was a beautiful funeral.

You should eat something.

SHE GROANS
Why do people always say that?

Well, there's clean clothes
and your post.

Argh, I just...
I think I need you to go.

Please.

OK.

Thank you so much for coming.

Well, thank you for the flowers.

You know your way back, don't you?

Yeah, I've got it.

Are you going already?

I've got a position statement
to finalise for court tomorrow.

Mind if Cora and I catch a lift?
Sure.

I've just put the rubbish out,

and if you're off,
can I share a ride?

Really? Yes, I, erm...

I thought I'd go back to mine.

Oh.

It's good to have you back
for a while, favourite son-in-law.

Oh, thanks, Ruth.

Liv, see you tomorrow? OK, Dad.

Ronnie and Nathan are showing Liv
around our old alma mater.

Oh! Knew we'd get her there
eventually.

Whatever.

See you, Nate.

"Nate"?

Mm. Man-child's coming along?
Oh, happy day!

Right, come on, you.

So, erm, are you going straight to
Kate's book launch tomorrow?

Melanie's hosting.

I presume that's why
we got the invite.

Ah, right. NHD in force.

Well, I wouldn't want to miss
kid shrink's big night.

I like what you did there.

I... We couldn't have got through
this last week without you.

Why are we doing this?

No, no. No, really.

Hannah, we've been over this.

Have we? Have we actually
talked, just you and me?

Without, you know,
a child, or my mother,

or a phone buzzing?

James is dead.

Doesn't that tell you
something? Doesn't...

Doesn't it show you
we only have this one life?

And...

..I'm sure Kate's...

..a perfectly nice person.

But, honestly, how long has it been?

A few weeks? Months, at best?

We have...

..20 years of chaos
and brilliant mess.

I just... I want you to see...

Kate's pregnant.

What?

How many weeks?

Um, ten, 11.

It's early. I... I don't know.

I'm still trying to get
my head around it.

You didn't use contraception?

Well, I didn't have to
think about it with you.

Not since you...

I mean...

Stop, please.

So, is she going to keep it?

Wow.

Whoa.

SHE INHALES SHARPLY

Yeah.

You know...

Oh, Hannah, I... I'm going to...

I'll ring you.

Good morning. Morning.

How did it go?

Beautiful.

Sad.

His father spoke about
the Boy Scout years.

His mother was very quiet.

Does it help he saved a life?

Zander!

What? He donated his heart.

I can only apologise.

I'm simply saying
it's an act of generosity

that I don't think I've got in me.

No, I think Zander's right.

I think it's marvellous,
and I, for one, am very proud.

OK. Yeah?

Yeah. OK.

Will we see you tonight?

Book launch invite. Damn!

Is that tonight? Mm.

I can't. You're falling like flies.

It'd be good to show
your faces. Do the rounds.

Honestly, I can't face it.

No "can't". You shall and you will.

We show Melanie Aickman
that we are unafraid,

unabashed and unfazed,

because that is exactly what this
whole Kate/Nathan relationship is -

a phase. I'd argue it's a little
more than a phase.

Well, then someone
must bring him to his senses.

And now that we have shared
my personal life

with the entire office,
will you please excuse me?

There's no way
I'll get a sitter this late.

I can do it.

I can pick up Cora, feed her,
put her down tonight. Really?

Don't look at me.

Two prenups and the Devereux
relocation statement to do.

Believe me, it's for the best.

So, not planning on children, then?

HE SNORTS

You'd make such a good dad.

Don't encourage him, please.
It's never going to happen.

SHE SIGHS

So, finally,
you're taking my advice.

Mm-hm.

Are you moving?
But your flat is so bijou.

Thanks, but we can't swing a cat,

let alone accommodate
the truckload of plastic crap

that Cora's accumulating. "We"?

Well, I suppose you are a "we" now.

I've a buddy in real estate.

He's working on a project
near the Crossrail.

I could check it out.

You'd be buying off plan.
Off plan's fine.

Real estate?

That's so American, Tyler.

Oh, the sisters have arrived.

She knows. Paranoid.

She knows.

How was your journey?

Thank you. It was fine.

Our nine o'clock is here.

Right.

Yeah. I can't see it.

There.

Oh, yeah, you're right.
He does have my big feet.

LAUGHTER

Obviously, this is
an informal agreement

confirming that this conception was
via artificial insemination,

and, as such, there are no legal
rights or parental responsibilities

for you, Gus, as a known donor
to a married couple.

Bella and Sian
are the legal parents,

rather than yourself.

It's crazy seeing it in print.

If this had been a natural
conception rather than

an artificial insemination,

then your legal position
would be different.

You could be the legal father.

But this way...
Well, you're a free man.

But he still gets to keep
my big feet.

LAUGHTER

Hey, don't do yourself down, man.

It takes a lot of practice
to get it in that cup.

Uh, for the record, I was
a couple of margaritas down.

Gus and I were on a trip
to Bali for a shoot and...

Ping! She starts ovulating,
slap-bang mid-weekend.

Fashion Week in Paris, and there's
no way I could be there,

so I left it up to these guys.

We got lucky.

So lucky.

And I guess Tequila is
no name for a child.

LAUGHTER

That's yours.

Can we please pop the champagne now?

Ooh, right!

Sorry. Sorry.

Cortado, already ordered.

I missed you last night.

Mm.

It went on much longer
than I expected.

Then I had to help out
clearing up and, erm...

What? James has only just died.

Yes, but just don't let grief
be a means to avoid this.

This?

I'm still getting my head
around this.

Well, at some point,
you need to integrate this,

you know, us into your...
your life, our life.

Hmm.

And now I sound like
one of my reports. Sorry.

I told Hannah.

I didn't think
we were telling people yet.

She has a radar, always has.

I've never been able to get
the big stuff past her.

How'd she take it?

Well, she didn't shout.

Scary, but you told her.
Doesn't that tell you something?

That I'm a blabbermouth?

Perhaps that you want her
to be part of our reality now?

Can you see it's great?

I'm getting there.

Good. Mm.

Because half of your family
are invited tonight.

Nathan, I need you by my side.

PHONE CHIMES

Ah, sh... Sorry.

Shit. I've got to go, sorry.

Go. Yeah.

I'll see you tonight. Yeah.

Go.

Oh, cheers!

Cheers.
Congratulations again. Thank you.

Yeah, thank you.
You've been amazing.

They're going to make
great parents.

Yeah.

Have you known each other long?

Bella and me?

Yeah, we've known each other
since we were five.

She always says she was the one
who got me into fashion,

but it was actually
the other way around. Huh.

Did her first catwalk
in my back garden.

I've been following her ever since.

You're good to go, man.

Oh, Bella's just gathering
her things.

Everything takes her time right now.

You know you'll
always be part of my family...

Well, yeah, that's...

Just, er... Just phone.

Um, thanks, Hannah.

I want photos as soon as he arrives.

Thank you.

What was all that about?

Bali, margaritas?

That child was naturally conceived.

And?

It's a grenade waiting to go off.

Gus could be left with no parental
rights if he changes his mind

and wants to be recognised
as the legal parent.

So you're assuming
that they've slept together?

No, no. But if they did,
don't we have a duty of care?

Bella is our client.
We have a duty to protect her.

Legally, we have a duty to the child
to know who his parent is

if he was naturally conceived.

As long as the child is loved,

does it matter
who the actual parent is,

or how or why they did the deed?

Rex hasn't seen Cora
since she was born.

Yeah, how's that
working out for you?

What? Who rattled your cage?

There's a child involved now,

but screw what happens
to everyone else?

Does no-one care
about the truth any more?

Erm, Rose Cutler,
to see, uh, Liza.

Just take a seat, please.

Rose?

I could've dropped the items round.

Oh, no, I wanted
to pick them up myself.

Here's James's phone.
How are you doing?

OK. Do you want a few minutes?

Erm, yeah.

OK.

MACHINES BEEP

PHONE CHIMES

Hi, Hannah.

I'm seeing JJ Johnson this morning,

Felix's lawyer.

Any response?

They're looking
to defend the petition

and will not accept your grounds
of unreasonable behaviour.

You said keep my reason simple,

something that wouldn't
raise the guard.

SHE SIGHS

We knew they wouldn't make it
easy for us, Leni,

but they know
you're hiding something.

JJ Johnson's a sniper,

but, you know,
he's a...reasonable man.

How's the transplant patient?

He's good.

He?

He's a he?

How's Rose?

As well as can be expected.

Allison, the transplant coordinator,
will be happy to speak to her

if she wants to talk
with the recipient's family.

It's an opportunity to connect,
if both parties are willing.

Uh, I think
it's a little early for...

When she's ready.

It can help sometimes.

I'll be in touch.

JJ Johnson's in the diary
for today.

You advised your brother-in-law
to get good representation.

Clearly listened.

It's going to be fine.

They told the boys yesterday.

How did they take it?

Well, judging from the amount
of whisky Felix and I drank after,

not well. It just
doesn't make sense.

Felix is worried
about Leni's state of mind.

So am I.

Her state of mind is fine.

Her reasons are not.

So clearly,
there's something missing.

At least for Leni.

Something Felix did not provide.

Is there someone else?

What? Nine times out of ten,
there's someone else involved.

She's your sister.

We've never been the kind who talk.

So, please, probe a little further.

Get Felix off my back,

because I don't think my liver
can survive another night.

Incidentally, the meeting
with Nathan at Melanie's

is first thing tomorrow.

I know you've been very distracted
over the last couple of weeks,

but as you ripped up
your divorce agreement,

I'm not sure of our game plan here.

Me neither.

Oh, great. Well,
it's all a little hypothetical,

but I suspect they want to make
some adjustments to the agreement.

Just remember, Melanie is a master
at racking up the hours.

Pfff...

JJ. Hannah!

I haven't seen you since...

Erm, Buffer and Buffer.

Brutal.

Well, you came back once or twice
for a couple more rounds, right?

Oh! Yeah.

So, Samuelson and Hale,

we are, as you know, going to
defend Leni's divorce petition.

Mm-hm. And you don't need me
to tell you the reasons stated

for unreasonable behaviour are weak.

The respondent belittles
the petitioner's role

as an equal contributor
to the household

and, with childcare
responsibilities,

this has caused the petitioner
to feel unsupported.

Now, my client insists that he has
been strongly supportive

of his wife, but has been
concerned of late

that his wife seems tired and
might have been overdoing it.

My client has been clear
that she feels he has been

disengaging from family life for
quite some time.

And based on these,
my client is refusing

to accept his wife's petition
for divorce on the grounds

of unreasonable behaviour.

Felix will defend his position.

You won't succeed.

I would be doing my client
a disservice if I didn't affirm

just how saddened and surprised
he is by his wife's actions.

Mm-hm.

My client is quite determined.

Well, if this is genuinely
her position,

then Mr Samuelson would appreciate
both his wife and children

being supported and advised by a
mutually appointed psychologist

to best manage
the impact on their sons.

There is a risk here that this thing
could completely blow up,

and Miss Hale would be
best served complying,

at least as an acknowledgement
of Felix's concern and despair.

We both know the value of family
therapists and psychologists

in these situations.

Right.

I'll get back to you on that.

Great seeing you again, Hannah.

I'll give you a quick tour

and then you can grab lunch
before the lecture.

So why else did you want
to come today?

Have you got something to tell me?

You're seeing someone, aren't you?

Actually, I am.

Does this someone have a name?

Kate. Kate.

Do you... Do you regret
screwing it up with Mum?

OK. It's natural to want to take
sides, but it's complicated, Livvy.

Doesn't seem that complicated to me.

You walked out.

Well, you might want to talk
to your mum about that.

So it's serious, then, is it?
With Kate?

In a way, yes. In a way?

And how old is Kate?

Is she younger? Hmm?
Younger than Mum?

Come on, Livvy. Yeah. Please.

I'm quite capable of handling
a grilling from my daughter.

Thank you. Years of practice.
39, 40-ish.

39, 40-ish? Very specific.
A real grown-up.

It's typical and, quite frankly,
pathetic the way men can do that,

just meet a younger woman.

And yet if Mum was to do that,

if Mum was to go
and start pulling a bloke

a decade younger than her...

Then I'm sure we'd all
be really impressed?

It was a joke.

Your mum's
a really attractive woman.

You know, she's quite capable of...

She could easily pull...
Not younger than... Not...

I mean, she...

Someone who most people
would consider attractive.

You're such an arse.

Oh, Livvy...

No, it's Liv!

It's not Livvy or Liveroo
or Livvy Boo or Liverpool

or Liver Cakes, none of which

you've actually called me since
I was like six. It is just Liv!

I'm nearly 19
and I'm getting married.

And if you want to start
lecturing me,

then maybe you should look
at yourself, Dad,

cos we're doing fine.

It's you that's fucking up
this family.

Sorry, Nate.

It's Nathan, not Nate.

It's Nathan!

He thinks I've gone mad?

No, no, they're simply...

They're raising concerns
and they're...

They're struggling
to understand your decision.

Your boys are naturally upset.

They could use this as further
evidence that both you and the boys

need to be psychologically assessed.

Anyone coming in and probing
into your personal life may

uncover things you don't wish
raised that could be used

if there were subsequent
court proceedings.

I know you feel you can't share
this with Felix,

but have you ever considered

he might just be the right
person to support you?

You love your husband, Leni,
I know you do...

Hannah... Your diagnosis is going to
be increasingly difficult to hide.

I'm going to die, Hannah.

And I won't let Felix see that.

There is no cure
for motor neurone disease.

Leni...

You've taken your wedding ring off.

I have.

And you're still wearing yours.

Mm.

Let a psychologist assess me.

What's the worst that could happen?

It's not going to change my mind.

Hi, James. Are you
still coming over today?

I've got to leave soon.

All right, James? I was
expecting you about an hour ago.

Can you give me a call, let me know
if you're still on the way?

Thank you.

Where are you?
I need you. Hurry up.

I, erm...

I... I-I-I can't tell her,
I just can't do it.

I mean, a baby...

I barely survived my last three.

I'm just not ready
to be a father again.

How do you tell the person
you love most in the world

you've screwed up?

Gus is in reception to pick up
something. Right. Yes.

SHE CLEARS THROAT

Hypothetically...

..if you had a client
withholding medical information

intrinsic to a divorce...

..what would you advise?

SHE EXHALES DEEPLY

Uh... Well, professionally,
we keep quiet.

Personally, if it intrinsically
changes the landscape

of two people's divorce,
then fuck it.

Or to coin a little-known phrase
someone recently said to me...

Does no-one care
about the truth any more?

Atticus Finch, eat your heart out.

SHE CHUCKLES

Come on, fish face, we're going out.

Kid shrink's book launch, hosted by
the delightful Melanie.

Oh, Nina... Come on.

Tyler's baby-sitting, so I've
got a free pass tonight.

Coat on.

Walk in, head held high.

SHE GROANS

And hosted by Melanie.

Come on.

This is why you need to get out.

Nina, the bag? Shit!

Sorry. Sorry. Gus.

How old?

Five... Five, nearly six months.

So cute. Congratulations.

Thank you.

I'll catch you up. Yeah.

Thanks. Don't tell the feminazis.

They'll never let me baby-sit again.

Oh, have you...have you got
a minute?

Yeah.

Just...

So, I'm going to be
straight with you.

I have done this kind
of agreement before, but this one?

Something... Something about
this one...

Something is not right.

And...lies are always found out.

I do not represent you,
but I have a duty of care to Bella.

So I find myself
in a difficult situation.

It was one night.

And I promised Bella.

She loves Sian.

Then that deserves
some kind of honesty, doesn't it?

And I can't advise my client
to sign something

I know not to be true.

So, be honest now.

I'm heading out.

I noticed you had a call
booked in with Dewhite's.

Yes, I've been helping Christie
with a US client.

He's well?

Oh, ho-ho!

Midtown corner office
and some of the best ski runs

in under three hours.

He went to you rather than me?

Zander, he resigned before
you pressed him to leave.

Plus, I have extensive experience
in financial irregularities

with high-income clients.

You're working on
financial irregularities?

A bungled trail of missteps
from New York to London,

possibly enough to warrant sending
someone over from Dewhite's here.

BABY FUSSES

How did you know, Ruth...

..that you wanted children?

I didn't. It was the '70s.

You didn't think about
the ifs and buts and whys.

Don't work too late. Night.

Are you sure this is all right?

Huh? Yeah, we're going to be fine.

Absolutely fine.

Did you mean that?

About me making a good dad?

Earlier. Yeah.

CORA FUSSES

Sh, sh...

I'll get that bottle. Sorry. Yeah.

Hey, hey, let's go, let's go.
Thank you.

Rose! How many kinds of
idiot are you?

Well, when you put it
like that... A baby?

A baby...
Please, don't play that.

I barely survived my last three.

I'm just not ready
to be a father again.

If I told you that it wasn't
planned,

would that sound any better?

No.

I mean, I'm right to presume
it's not with my sister.

It's not. And she knows? She knows.

Zero empathy? Rock bottom.

And James knew? The guy who had
no chance of conceiving

a child of his own,
and you told him that?

That, Nathan, that is zero empathy.

I'm so angry with you right now.

Well, if it's any consolation,

you're in a pretty
nonexclusive club.

Vinnie hates me.
Liv and Till are close behind.

Hannah is so angry
and disappointed in me.

Are you going to cry?

Do you want to go
and get pissed, then?

Kate's book thing... Yeah.

Cos I'm not going for the book.

And this doesn't mean
you're forgiven.

OK. I know.

INDISTINCT CHATTER

Wave and smile.

I need a drink. Hmm.

Hey.

Hannah, can I have a word?

Sorry, Ronnie, can we do it later?

I'm just going to...

What's so important?

Erm... Nothing that can't wait.

Brilliant. I think Ronnie's
prepping to dump my mother.

Really? Yep.

But I'm getting good with surprises.

Learning to set my face.

How was the grand tour?

Oh, Liv was on cracking form.

Do you know she's questioning
her decision on law?

Dropping out with a dropout?

Yeah, you're going to have
to get over that.

Get over my 18-year... Sorry,
soon-to-be-19-year-old, brilliant,

poised-to-be-top-legal-student,
daughter saddling up with

an overcaffeinated, underpaid,
oversexed entrepreneur,

aka drug dealer?

You know he wants to get
a work placement

at a coffee roaster's,
aka import coffee,

aka cocaine?

Xenophobic and wrong.

He has nice hair.

Oh, yeah, doesn't he? Lovely hair.

You told her about Kate?

Was that all you told her about?

Well, this is very nice.

How was Law College?

Nathan's suspicious
because Gael has nice hair.

HE GROANS
Just ensure she signs

a watertight prenup
and hope it'll be fine.

No-one ends up
with their teen romance.

Bar you two.

You need to talk to Liv alone.
Divide and conquer.

Failing that, have him taken out.

What are you talking about, huh?

They're working out
how to take people out.

Easy. Just cycle left across
a T-junction without looking.

Ta-da! Fucking hell.
GLASS CLINKS

Not to overstate it,
but our author

will be reading an extract
in the next five minutes.

So please grab a glass
and your copies while you can.

I'll be giving one out
with every decree nisi...

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE
So you...

Hannah, have another drink.

Mm-hm.

"Divorce is a grief all of its own.

"The unravelling of a marriage
like a death,

"but one without a corpse

"and yet still
with all the grief,

"all the sadness..."
There is death.

"..that sadly the law and this
industry..." There is death.

"..so often capitalise on."

"But what I am certain of
is that, out of this,

"if we can redirect
the narrative of divorce,

"then out of this mournful reckoning
comes the possibility of the new,

"perhaps even of the blended,

"of light on the horizon."

Thank you.

Wow. Double wow.

Bravo!

So, how do we...
HANNAH GRUNTS

For that, we need
to go back in time.

When I first studied psychology,

a professor said to me...

CONTINUES TALKING INDISTINCTLY

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

We used to spend hours
in libraries like this

when the children were little. Hmm.

Vinnie was always nicking stuff.

It's good to start 'em young.

It's so weird to think I'm never
going to do any of that.

Rose... No, don't. Don't say it.

Don't say there's going to be
someone else, another life.

I don't want to hear there's going
to be another life.

I, erm...

The last thing I said to him was
that I didn't want to adopt.

It was the last thing he heard.
He never heard I wanted...

I wanted to adopt with him.

I spoke to Leni today. Don't.

She said... I don't want to know.

It hurts too much.

I get it.

I do, I really do. Yeah.

James was just the best.

I know how hard it is.

I do.

I do.

There are days
when I look at Nathan,

and I can't believe it's happening.

Are you seriously equating
your divorce to my grief?

You... You...

You didn't lose Nathan.

You discarded him,
you cheated on him,

and then when he does
the same to you,

you act like you're the one
that's being wronged.

Rose... No.

I'm just not ready
to be a father again.

How do you tell the person
you love most in the world

you've screwed up?

He screwed up. You screwed up.

That's the only thing
that's the same.

You have a choice, Hannah.

James is gone. Nathan is still here.

Whatever happens next,
you have a choice.

So, stop.
Stop blaming everyone else.

Do something about it. Ro...

Rose... Rose!

So when they forwarded me
the premise of a TV show,

I mean, the clue's
in the title, right?

Make It Or Break It.

And I thought, "Ghastly!
Imagine me on television!"

And then I thought, "You know,
that's our raison d'etre."

Hannah!

You have met Kate, haven't you?

Twice now.

I've just been telling Ruth
what a nightmare it's been

pulling my new show together.

Huge pressure.

Well, it's a 9pm slot,

but I hope you'll all tune in.

We can't wait, can we, Hannah?

Yep. Great.

You two, tomorrow, meeting at nine -
let's wrap this whole thing up.

Yeah. Yes?

Then everyone's lives
can move on, right?

Oh, excuse me.
How nice to see you!

Absolutely...

Have you had a nice evening?

Not particularly.

Love the book, though,
what I've read of it.

It was, erm...

My apologies.

I'm always so impressed
by those who write.

Thank you.

Particularly those
who have so little...

..direct experience
with the blended family.

Kate's meticulous with her research.

Yes, of course.

Fully throwing yourself
into the practical now,

what with a baby on the way.

Crap. Yes, they are with child.

Isn't life amazing?

Out of the ashes,
a Phoenix may rise.

I'm going to go and get us
a car, Hannah.

Yeah, agreed.

Darling, let's move, shall we?

I think that might be a good idea.

Piss off.

Yes, I think we might just
take a couple of photographs.

I'll see you in... Ten minutes.

She seems...very nice.

Isn't she?

She's very pleasant.
It's actually quite a relief.

It's just going to take a little
time to get used to it.

Hi, Kate. JJ Johnson...

Understood.

I don't expect you to be supportive.

The taxi's here.

Fine. We'll be fine, Nathan.

Hannah, um,
I was just talking...

Sorry, Ruth.

I was just talking to Kate and
saying that it might be a thought

to get her on board
the Felix and Leni case.

Obviously, it's a joint decision.

It's brilliant.
Yeah, that's a brilliant idea.

Yeah, OK.

SHE SNIFFLES

Hannah...

SHE SOBS

You know what's...

What's most embarrassing?

I actually thought that you
wanted to get back together.

Do you really want this?

I heard the message, Nathan,
that you've screwed up.

I mean, does she know that?

Because y-y-you need
to tell her that.

Do you really want
to go through with this?

Yes.

Hannah, taxi.

SHE SOBS

Hey, git face,
it's me. Where are you?

Erm, look, I'm sorry.

OK? I...

I do want them.

Big, chubby, beautiful,
funny kids...

..millions of them.

Oh, you're going to make
the best dad, Jimbo.

DOOR OPENS

RUTH SIGHS

And the driver
and the cameras...

Danny's been zero for four.

Hey. Hey. You OK? Yeah.

Erm, he ordered takeout. OK.

There's still some left if you...
No, I'm OK, thank you.

I'm going to check on Cora. OK.

TV CONTINUES IN BACKGROUND

She's fast asleep.

Child whisperer.

You know, she's going to need
her own room.

Particularly if I'm going
to move my stuff in.

TV CLICKS OFF

Where's everyone?

Amateur.

Complete amateur.

How do you do this
and function the following day?

Mm! And they're your own.

Tell me that I'm wrong,

but kids are a constant headache,

a weight around the neck.

Do you count the days
until you're free again?

Yeah, lazy weekends in bed and
no-one to worry about but yourself.

Freedom.

I faintly remember those days.

And that's what they do to you.

They make you forget
why you didn't want them. Mm.

If I love him...

..I need to give them to him, right?

Kids.

How can I deny him children?

Mm. Mm. Hmm, hmm.

That was my thinking. Goodnight.

What was that all about? Nothing.

See you tomorrow.
See you tomorrow.

DOOR CLOSES

Well, I'm relieved, in a way.

It's out there now.

A little earlier
than maybe we wanted.

At least you can both start
talking about it now,

working it
into your divorce decisions...

SHE SIGHS

I know you're scared, but we're
going to get through this.

We're going to work this out
and we're going to make this right.

Yeah.

It's going to be OK.

Everyone's scared of turning
the page on a new life,

but you can do this.

You'll do this.

Hannah's opened the door, in a way,

for you to start looking at ways
to integrate the family now,

and the kids can get to know me.

No more secrets.

Hmm. God, I love you.

Rose?

Hi. Hi.

Erm...

Shall I? Yeah. Thanks.

It was a beautiful funeral.

Yeah. Oh, his mum told me to say
you spoke really beautifully.

Ah.

His parents, actually,
insisted on the burial.

I would have had him cremated.

I think that's what
he would have preferred.

I mean, we didn't talk about it.

Thought we had more time, I suppose.

Last mistake. Yeah.

Uh, yeah, I'm not....
I'm not going to stay long.

I don't really know
what I'm doing here.

I've got his bike, erm, which...

It just felt wrong
to leave it unclaimed.

It's all part of how he was going to
hawk his wares around.

Of course. Brain on a Bike.

Yeah.

Nicely ironic, in retrospect.

They couldn't do much
with his brain.

His heart, however, saved a life.

I think I'm supposed
to get solace from that.

Yeah, I saw you, erm...

You have jumble sales.

Third Friday of every month.
Yeah, cool.

Cos there's so much
of his stuff, you know, that he's...

So much shit that...

I... Do you know what? I think
I'm going to go now, erm...

Sorry.

Rose.

The wedding was even more beautiful.

We had...

Oh, we had an amazing wedding here.

You did. Yeah.

The best day of our lives.

There's a reason we have those,
isn't there, the best days?

Like the tent pegs to hold on to
when the rest just blows away.

Yes.

Rose...

Please, don't say that this is
part of God's grand plan,

because it sucks.

It sucks.

If it's any kind of plan...

Yep. I'd have to second you on that.

Because...because he's gone.

He's gone.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry, Rose.

CHILDREN LAUGH

We're being watched
by the breakfast helpers.

Ah!

LAUGHTER

Be prepared.

Melanie's going to come in hard.

First, you ripped up the agreement,
and now there's a baby...

But we can still regain control.

Hi. Morning.

Hi, I'm here to see Melanie.

Can I take your name, please?
Nathan Stern. Lovely.

If you just take a seat over there.

Now, as we seem never to have
received the signed papers,

and as Nathan's circumstances
have obviously changed,

we now feel that the agreements
aren't entirely fair.

We'd like to make some amends,

starting with the financial
agreement.

Here you are.

Thank you.

SHE CLEARS THROAT

SHE LAUGHS
Oh, God...

You want me to sell the house?

We had reached
an agreement that any sale

would occur after
the children had left home.

Yes, and we've changed
our minds because

the circumstances have now changed.

I also consider that our
negotiations

were still on
a "without prejudice" basis.

We can always ask the court
to rule on that.

Ha! Calm down.

I'm sure we can reach a compromise.

We can agree that the
parenting plan has some flex,

namely that my client wishes to
spend one night a week

in the family home.

Nesting.

Bravo.

I'm sure I don't need
to explain the concept,

which is proving quite popular.

Now, the day is yet to be decided
where a parent can alternate,

but preferably to coincide when your
client is working late,

which I understand is frequently,

so as not to disturb
the children's routine

any more than they have been.

The kids are just getting used
to us being apart.

The kids are going to be fine.

Is that the title
of Kate's next book?

Look, I'd like more than
a couple of hours a week

with Tilly and Vin
in somewhere other than

whatever chicken shop we can find.

Oh, you think
that's why your son is hostile?

Because the chicken place
isn't to his taste or style?

Nothing to do with the fact
that his father has just

absented himself from family life
without any real attempt

to try and work things out?

Look, you can play with
the narrative...

Narrative? N-No...

SHE LAUGHS

Oh, that's brilliant.

Yeah, I can't do this.

Yes, that's OK.
I think we've all said enough.

We are going to need some time to
discuss these new requirements.

But clearly, the amicable divorce is
out of the window.

There's no need to defend
or underline the finer points.

Neither can it be an excuse
to take the gloves off

and turn this into
the street fight we all know,

Melanie, you are capable of.

Coming from you, Zander,
I take that as a compliment.

You know what I find
most extraordinary, Nathan,

is that you've even read any book

other than Charlie
And The Chocolate Factory

and the entire canon
of John Grisham.

You want to see me
play with the narrative,

you selfish, self-involved,
heartless prick?!

What, because I want
to spend time with my kids

in a place they can call home?

Well, they have a home!

That I don't get
to live in any more!

So I will be visiting the house
that I also own and pay for.

I will have one night a week,

without you, in the company of my
kids, with my new girlfriend,

who is keen to be part
of their lives.

Because it is my life now, Hannah,

and you no longer have a say
over what I do,

including who I sleep with and who
I choose to build a life with

and have a fucking kid with!

I don't know who you are any more.

Sorry. No, that's all right.

OK, back to work, people.

OK, can we all
just calm down, please?

It was just one night.

It wasn't even a whole night.
I don't believe this.

Please, Sian, please just...
Just listen to me.

Do you feel better now?
Do you think I didn't know?

Did you really think
I needed to hear that?

Thanks. Thanks a lot.

Why the hell did you have
to say anything?

Great lawyer.

The truth is better than a lie?

Gus, I am... I am so sorry.
Yeah, I don't want to hear it.
