01x02 - Episode 2

Post by bunniefuu »

A body was found.

-sh*t.

-Oh, my God.

It's my son.

We brought him here.

We left him!

Where did you lot

disappear to last night?

You know nothing

nothing!

He's dead because of us!

-[Anna] I know!

-Then take a breath!

[Jack] Oh, well.

I just wanted to introduce you

to your new supervisor.

Covid Mandy?

Have you told anyone

what happened in the car park?

-[Tish] No.

-[Cat] Don't.

It's not too late

to go to the police.

We shoved him in a car boot

then left him

in the middle of nowhere.

[Anna] Max will believe us.

-Looking for a new DS.

-You want me?

Mandy Thomas.

Come with us, please.

Forensics found

a credit card in the woods.

If we hold our nerve

and stick together

this will pass.

[theme music playing]

[theme music ends]

-[creaks]

-[burbles]

[birds chirping]

[gushes]

-[door closes]

-[Max] You're gonna be late.

Come on, I'll give you a lift.

You okay?

Is this about Tamsin?

She'll cool off.

Just give her some space.

And if that doesn't work,

after your birthday

we'll pack our bags

and do a runner.

You and me, somewhere hot.

Leave the kids

to fend for themselves

till they're thirty.

Sound good?

Sounds amazing.

Get a shift on.

[car door shuts]

Babe? Anna?

[car doors shuts]

We're interviewing everyone

to get some background on Jack.

I can't sit in on yours, though.

I've got 200 quid to my name.

I can't afford to pay

some blackmailer!

-[Louie] Me, neither.

-We need

to tell Max what happened.

We can't, we agreed.

So, we change our minds.

A man died, Nancy!

Yeah, because of us!

It's manslaughter.

I'm not going back to prison

for Jack Evans.

I can't hide it from Max.

He can tell something's wrong!

You have to try.

Do you think Mandy

sent that message?

It could be anyone

from the party.

I'll check the staff list,

see if I can match

the phone numbers.

Do you know

what Mandy said to the police?

Max wouldn't tell me.

If she saw us with Jack,

we'd already be arrested.

Not if she wants

money out of us.

[Tish] Morning.

-Hi.

-Hey, Tish.

Gareth says, the police

are interviewing everyone.

[sniffles] I need caffeine.

[Anna chuckles]

What if it's Tish?

-She wouldn't.

-She saw us with Jack.

Yeah, and if it's not Tish,

what's stopping her

from telling the police?

-I'll talk to her.

-No, wait.

-And say what?

-I don’t know, just like,

-sound her out.

-No, no, it's too risky.

[Gareth] Louie?

Police want a chat.

I thought you could go first,

get it out of the way?

Oh, you too, Tish.

Police interview's upstairs.

It's just a formality,

they won't bite.

Tish.

-Yeah?

-Miss Hopkins?

Could you come with us, please?

Louie, you're over there.

Hello, um.

-Louise, is it?

-Louie.

Oh, can you take

a seat for us, Louie.

I'm Detective Superintendent

Holland, I think you know

DS Price?

I understand

you're related to Jack Evans.

Yeah, he's my nephew.

-Was my nephew.

-I'm sorry for your loss.

The circumstances

of Mr. Evans' death

is unexplained at this time,

so we're questioning everyone

to try and establish

what happened.

Yeah.

So, can we start

with the brewery party.

What time did you get here?

[clears throat]

I went home to get changed

and I came back around 7:30.

[Griffiths] During the course

of the evening,

did you speak to Mr. Evans?

Yes, he came over to our table.

-What did you talk about?

-Um

just small talk, really.

Was Jack affected

by alcohol at that time?

Yeah, he was drunk.

Yeah. but not

not falling-down drunk.

-Were you drinking alcohol?

-No.

My father was an alcoholic,

I suppose he put me off.

[chuckles] Ironic that

I ended up working at a brewery.

Do you think Jack was under

the influence of drugs at all?

Um, I wouldn't know.

Lemsip is about

as risqué as I get.

He'd done some coke.

Maybe other stuff as well,

I don’t know.

Did you witness

any drug-taking firsthand?

I know the signs.

Did Mr. Evans have a history

of recreational drug use?

Yeah.

[Holland] Prescription?

I'm not sure.

[Max] What time

did you leave the party?

Dunno.

It was around midnight.

And where was Mr. Evans

at that time?

I wasn't paying attention.

Actually

I think he was inside.

-Maybe at the bar?

-Who was he with?

I don’t know.

Did you see Mr. Evans

talking to anyone when you left?

Nope.

Just drive, Nance.

We got into the car

and I drove everyone home.

"Everyone" being

Anna, Louie and Catrin?

That's right.

Do you remember

the last time

you saw your nephew?

[Max] Louie?

Yeah,

he was standing at the bar.

What do you think happened?

That's what

we're trying to establish.

Was it a heart attack?

I mean,

-you must have some idea?

-Not yet.

But I can assure you

we will get the bottom of it.

[music playing]

[door opens]

[water gushing]

It wasn't me in those woods.

Someone stole my purse.

That's who they

should be looking for.

It's true.

I swear.

Okay.

I've never known anyone

who's died before.

I can't get my head around it.

Few days ago

he was walking around

like everything was normal.

But now he's gone, like

erased.

And I know he was

a tosser but

-that's just brutal.

-Are you all right?

Why don't people like me?

Because you pick fights.

And you're judgmental.

And when you're

serving in the canteen

you're borderline hostile.

My gran says,

life's a competition.

You'll have

a better chance of winning

if you fry the chips properly.

[sighs]

Turns out that Mandy went home

with Martin from packing.

And him with that rash

Do you think there'll be

compensation for the shock?

The brewery has got

a duty of care to its workers.

This is Wales, Gwen,

not Los Angeles.

No offence Gwen,

but can you sashay away please?

[clangs]

Has anyone spoken to Tish?

Gareth said she went home

after the interview.

She wouldn't have said anything.

Then why go home?

It's like she is avoiding us.

Maybe she did send that message.

-No way, it's not like her.

-You've changed your tune.

I checked the staff list and

there's no match

for the phone number.

So, they're using a burner,

that's what I would do.

-It's got to be someone here.

-What are you doing?

-Messaging back.

-Anna, no.

We need to buy time

to figure out who's doing this.

Anna! This is a really bad idea.

[phone chimes]

-Hey.

-Hey.

-Is that your boss?

-Yeah. She's all right.

Wouldn't want to be

in her bad books though.

-Good day?

-Not really.

-Sorry.

-Oh, it's all right.

You're excited

about your work, it's nice.

Was your interview okay?

Yeah.

But one of the girls went home

afterwards, Tish Hopkins.

Was she all right?

We're worried about her.

What kind of worried?

Just that she's all right.

[chuckles]

Well, she wasn't very helpful.

Said she was too drunk

to remember much.

Did anyone see Jack

leave the party?

Babe

you know,

I can't talk about this.

It's me.

[Max] There's promotion boards

at work coming up,

I need to do everything

by the book.

Who am I gonna tell?

I don't want

to jeopardize anything.

Sure.

There's a briefing tonight

so, I won't be back

for a few hours.

I'll drop you home.

Just these, please.

-[scanner beeping]

-[bag rustling]

-[beeps]

-[telephone ringing]

[breathes deeply]

[birds chirping]

[Holland] It's highly likely

that someone was in the woods

with Jack Evans that night.

Either he met them there

or they went together.

So, let's focus on

who that might be.

And while we're waiting

for the postmortem report,

let's get a timeline

of the party.

The brewery CCTV is useless

so, check out social media.

Every Facebook photo,

every Instagram post,

every selfie

from anyone that was there.

Let's get a nice big collage

on that board, please.

Get some closure

for this family. Thank you.

Oh, Griff, keep on

at the forensics for the phone.

-I need the phone.

-Okay.

Max?

How's your wife?

Yeah

she's okay, I guess.

It's been a bit of a shock.

Well. she's a valuable conduit

to the brewery so use her.

See, if you can find out who

Jack might have gone off with.

Mm?

[light thud]

Kids all right?

[Anna] Yeah fine.

Come sit down.

-[clatters]

-[screeches]

What's everyone saying

at work about Jack?

I thought we weren't

talking about this.

I don't know. He was wasted.

Everyone, thinks

it was an overdose or

bad gear.

He wasn't alone that night.

Mandy Thomas

says her purse was stolen

and whoever took it

probably ended up

in the woods with Jack.

-Any idea who that might be?

-No.

Was he close to anyone

in particular?

No. He kept to himself.

We barely saw him.

[Ryan] Dad

you got a card today.

Missed delivery.

Tamsin's grounded,

why didn't she answer the door?

-Revenge?

-It's at number 12.

-Go round and get it.

-Why me?

-Is it Mum's birthday present?

-[Max] Oh, yes!

And I'm eating my tea, so

And no peeking,

or looking

at the return address.

I hope you're not

wrapping it yourself.

What's wrong with my wrapping?

[Ryan] Mum?

[door shuts]

[Max] Arwel.

[Arwel] I, uh

I didn't know where else to go.

They're not telling me anything.

I'm his dad

I have a right to know.

[breathes deeply]

I'm asking you

as a friend

and a father.

I need to understand

what happened to my boy.

We're following leads

to establish why he was there.

That's all I can tell you.

Did they find his phone?

[Max]

No, but we're still looking.

Jack's phone's missing?

Have we got any tissues?

[sniffles]

Thank you.

Maybe he dropped it

in the woods?

Maybe.

Have you got someone

staying with you?

[Arwel] Oh, God no.

Last thing I need

is someone else

sobbing all over the place.

I'm sorry

for barging in like this.

I just needed to feel like

I was doing something.

The lab results

will be back in a few days.

They'll tell us what happened.

But they won't tell us

why.

[reporter]

The death of Jack Evans

has sent shock waves

through the local community.

The last known sighting

of him alive was here

at a party to mark

the brewery's centenary.

Police, now,

want to hear from anyone

who may have seen him

leave as they try to--

-I was watching that.

-I've had it all day.

Well I haven't.

[reporter]

The place is very much

the heart and soul

of the local community

and everyone here has been

shocked by his sudden

I keep imagining how it'd feel

to lose Ryan or Tam

Do you think he suffered?

Sounds like

he was pretty out of it.

No one should have

to die alone like that.

We'll figure out

what happened

don't worry.

-I love you.

-I love you, too.

[phone dings, buzzes]

[clicks]

Who's that?

Anna?

It's just a junk message.

[telephone ringing]

-sh*t, sorry.

-Who's ringing?

-[rings]

-It's Louie.

I better take it.

[Louie] Anna

Anna?

Yeah.

-Did you see the reply?

-Yeah.

-[phone beeping]

-Hang on.

-Cat's calling.

-They replied.

I know, I saw.

Louie's on the line.

-We should ring Nancy.

-Hang on.

Nancy's calling.

-Nancy?

-Did you see the message?

Yeah, we all did.

I think we're going to have

to give them what they want.

-Are you serious?

-And then what?

What if they ask for more?

[Anna]

Blackmailers don't just give up.

I don't have five grand!

-I don't have one grand!

-So, what do we do?

There's nothing we can do

for now, so let's sleep on it

then make a decision

with clear heads.

Sleep? I can't sleep!

And there's something else

Jack's phone's missing.

-Is it in the car?

-No.

-Are you sure?

-Positive.

It must be in the woods.

Oh, God.

This is getting out of control.

-Babe? Everything okay?

-I've got to hang up.

We'll talk tomorrow.

What's going on?

-Louie's not coping.

-You wanna go round there?

No. She's calmed down now.

Come back to bed.

[groans]

[sobs]

[metal clanging]

[Cat] I told you,

I can't afford to pay.

[Louie] I don't see

what else we can do.

What do you think?

[Nancy] I think Louie's right,

we don't have a choice.

Thing is,

all our savings are tied up

in Richard's investments,

I have only got

few hundred in my account.

Do you think I should

ask Arwel for a loan?

Oh, God no.

Well, don't look at me.

We've got savings

It was for a holiday.

-How much do you have?

-I don't know, four grand.

Four and a half.

I could max out

my credit card for the rest.

Oh, God.

I feel terrible about this.

I promise you, I'll pay you back

as soon as I can.

Me too. I'll find

a way to pay my share.

-[telephone ringing]

-[mouse clicks]

Post-mortem results

won't be in until tomorrow,

an issue with the lab.

How cold was it that night?

It couldn't be

hypothermia, could it?

No, he's fully clothed.

Hypothermia victims

tend to strip off.

Their nerves are damaged.

They think they're overheating,

they're actually

freezing to death.

"Paradoxical undressing."

It's a thing.

Science. It's weird.

Oh, and we will need to search

the Evans' house for his phone.

Look into getting consent

from next of kin.

Yes, boss.

My kids used to play

in those woods.

Cross country's

too dangerous at night.

So, if he walked there,

he probably took this road.

There's no camera,

no fixed CCTV.

But there is a pub.

Someone might have

seen him go past.

Seen who he was with.

And he might have even

dropped his phone on the way.

Great, check it out.

Oh, and bring me back

some pork scratchings.

Pork scratchings.

-[grunts]

-[thumps]

-[man] Sorry, love.

-It's fine, just leave it.

-You're meant to be at home.

-Can you leave us alone, please?

-Who are you?

-Harri. From school.

Well, Harri from school,

Tamsin's grounded

so, can you go away, please?

-Mum!

-Go on.

You are so embarrassing!

Why the hell would you do that?

You're meant to be at home,

not out picking up boys!

You know nothing about my life.

-Just get in the car, Tamsin.

-I hate you.

Get in the car!

Hey! I'm not an Uber.

-[engine whirs]

-[screeches]

[pub owner] The camera is

prehistoric but it does the job.

Well, I'm assuming it does.

I've never checked the footage.

-You fancy buying a pub?

-My parents used to own one.

They sold it back in the '90s.

They got out

when the going was good.

[phone ringing, buzzing]

DS Price.

Max, it's kicking off

at Evans’ towers.

-Arwel?

-[Holland] Yep.

I need to deploy

your charm and diplomacy.

-All right?

-Okay.

I'm on it.

Sorry, mate, I'll have

to take your hard drives.

Is this about the Evans boy?

Yeah, do you know him?

No, but I went to school

with Arwel.

He always acted

like the bees knees but

-I saw through him.

-How do you mean?

Caught him crying

in the toilets once.

Properly sobbing because

he didn't want to go home.

He's as messed up

as the rest of us.

Come on, let's get those drives.

[birds chirping]

[engine whirring]

I don't have time

for this sh*t, Tamsin.

-Let me out!

-You stay inside,

by yourself, until I get home.

Is that clear?

-Is that clear?

-Yes!

-[keys jingle]

-[doors unlock]

You never would've

got that promotion,

'cause you're a loser.

[cellphone dings, buzzing]

[engine whirring]

[lock clicks]

Lunch breaks are an hour.

Sorry. Trouble at home.

You know how it is.

[chuckles nervously]

[distant clattering]

Did you get the cash?

I can't stop shaking.

[Louie]

Another message came through.

They want the money left under

Maddox Street bridge, tonight.

I need this to be over.

[exhales]

[Arwel] No, no.

You're not listening.

You're wasting time!

You should be out there

figuring out what happened!

[female detective] That's what

we're trying to do, Mr. Evans.

No! You're pissing about,

winding me up

Get these idiots

off my property!

[door shuts]

Give me five minutes.

Arwel.

-You all right?

-What good will it do,

ransacking his room?

We'll be respectful, I promise.

You might

Those two were ready to clomp in

like something

out of Jurassic Park.

Well, if we can find his phone,

it might tell us

-who he was with, that night.

-His phone's not here!

And why should I help the police

if they won't even

let me bury him!

Well, as soon as

the postmortem’s been done,

and the coroner

gives the all-clear

Blah, blah, blah.

There might be something

in Jack's room that explains

what he was doing

in those woods.

It's an invasion of his privacy!

What if I supervised the search?

Arwel

I want to help Jack,

I want to understand

what happened to him.

Who he might have met.

That room is all

I have left of him.

Can you tell me

anything about his friends?

He didn't have any friends.

Well, he must've had someone.

His mother left him

when he was five years old.

He was never the same.

He withdrew.

We both did.

And where is she now?

Jack's mum?

We never saw her again.

She passed away.

Five years ago. Cancer.

I'm sorry.

I wasn't.

It was just the two of us.

We never let the outside in.

That was our rule.

It was us against the world.

So, why leave him?

Why move to France?

Did you fall out?

Arwel?

[Arwel]

I just want to be left alone.

We will have to search his room.

Mate, I don't want to

have to get a warrant.

Then don't.

Perhaps,

you didn't hear me, officer.

I want you gone.

[engine whirring]

[door unlocks]

[door squeaking]

[engine starts up]

[burbles]

[Nancy] Thanks. Right.

We'll wait and see

who comes to pick it up.

We can't risk anyone seeing us.

Well, we'll move somewhere,

out of sight.

[phone ringing, buzzing]

[continues ringing, beeps]

-Let's just get it over with.

-Yeah.

Are you sure

you don't want me to come?

-I'll be quick.

-"The center bin."

[Nancy] Yeah, I remember.

It's my birthday tomorrow.

I should be home

with my family, but

Not stuck

in a smackhead carpark.

-[chuckles]

-You think I want to be here?

My nephew's lying in a morgue.

We're no better than him now.

No, we're worse.

I should've tried

harder with him.

You always tried.

Why do you think

he turned out like he did?

It's just

Tamsin's gone off the rails.

I mean, she's always

been difficult but

last year ruined us.

I don't know what to do.

Oh, don't ask me

for parenting advice.

Didn't

Didn't you ever want kids?

I'd never bring children

into our family.

-Why?

-We're toxic.

[phone ringing, buzzing]

Hey.

What you doing

around Maddox Street?

[Anna] Getting some air.

What, and some crystal meth?

[chuckles]

Don't worry, I'm fine.

Ryan's looking for you.

Yeah, I'm headed

I'm headed home now.

[Max] Everything okay?

[Anna] Mm-hmm. Yeah.

Pork scratchings.

I'm still working but

I'll be home as soon as I can.

Okay.

[Max] Love you.

Bye.

It's done.

Max knows I'm here.

We have to go.

Well, good.

I don't want to hang about.

Well, don't you want to know

who's behind this?

It's too dangerous.

How long would we wait?

An hour? Five hours?

-Well, as long as it takes.

-[Nancy] Anna, start the car.

Right, I'll wait on my own then.

[Nancy] Oh, Louie,

don't be stupid.

Shut the door,

Louie, get back in the car!

Louie, come on!

[engine starts]

Griff?

Can you get

these hard drives to tech

-so they can log the contents?

-Yeah, no problem.

[engine whirring distantly]

Why didn't you stay?

How are we supposed to know

who's doing this?

[Nancy] I already told you

Max was asking questions!

Where are you?

Just getting some bits

for Anna's birthday.

[Nancy] I'll see you at lunch.

Yeah, see you tomorrow.

[gate creaks]

-[Tish] Hey.

-sh*t.

Are you stalking me?

It's a valid hobby.

Where've you been?

None of your business.

[cellphone ringing, buzzing]

[Cat] What's going on?

Are you okay?

-We had an argument.

-You and your boyfriend?

-No, me and Harry Styles.

-All right, Princess.

Ugh. Don't call me that.

Anyway, he's not my boyfriend,

he's an ex.

Or at least he will be,

he's just taking

some convincing.

-Can't say I blame him.

-Was that an actual compliment?

Was it?

Don't tell anyone,

it'll damage my brand.

Do you drink cider?

[Tish] Can I ask you

something kind of personal?

How did you end up in prison?

You know about that.

Everyone knows. [chuckles]

I got involved

with the wrong people.

But I turned things around.

Arwel gave me a chance

and the brewery's

been good for me.

Anna, Louie, Nance,

they don't care

where I come from or what I did.

They're proper mates, yeah.

Where are your family?

My parents split

when I was four.

Last time I saw my mum,

she was dropping me

at social services.

God, I'm sorry.

It's what it is.

I'm on my own

and that's how I like it.

Do you never hear from them?

Not even on your birthday,

or Christmas?

Didn't celebrate

many birthdays growing up.

I am owed a lot

of birthday cakes. [chuckles]

I didn't tell the police

we were out there

in the carpark.

Why?

He bit you?

He tricked me

to keep me out there.

It could've been worse

if you guys hadn't showed up.

I hated him.

I'm glad he's gone.

Tish, where were you tonight?

-With my ex.

-Where?

-What does it matter?

-I just want to know.

At his place. Over the river.

Why?

I should go.

Do you want your stalker

to walk you home?

No. Thanks for the drink.

'Night.

[toilet flushes]

Sorry, I'm so late.

It's okay.

Happy Birthday.

[sighs]

[gushes]

[birds chirping]

I can't hear anything.

-Just knock.

-Yeah, what if they're shagging?

-That's disgusting.

-What if they are though?

Nothing's gonna happen

with you two standing there.

Come on, come in.

Morning.

-[Ryan] Happy Birthday, Mum.

-Thank you!

That's from both of us.

See. This is how

you wrap a present.

It's a gift voucher

for that new day spa place.

And there's a menu.

Aw, that's lovely, thank you!

They don't do

full face-lifts unfortunately.

Oh, that's a shame, isn't it?

And this is from me.

Have you been taking lessons?

-[Max] Yeah.

-[chuckles]

[sighs]

It's gorgeous!

"To infinity and beyond."

-That's from Toy Story.

-We know.

-It was our first date.

-[Tamsin chuckles]

It was either that

or Trainspotting.

I love it. Thank you.

[Max] And don't forget,

your mum's

not lifting a finger today.

Yeah, yeah.

-[phone buzzing]

-Oh.

It's the station.

Sorry, I've gotta take this.

You look older.

Thanks.

[clattering]

It's for Anna.

Some record she wanted.

Isn't vinyl

very expensive these days?

You should come

-to lunch.

-I've got things to do.

-If it's about your eye--

-Just tell her

Whatever.

[scotch tape rips]

[sobs]

Hi.

Special delivery. [chuckles]

Are these for Anna?

For you.

One for every missed birthday.

Probably.

I had to guess your age.

And next time

you wanted to walk me home,

I, I guess

I'd be fine with that.

Thank you.

I'm off then.

"Yep. Bye, Nancy."

[bell rings]

-[Anna] Hey!

-Happy Birthday!

Come in!

How are you

still getting taller? [chuckles]

-He's a freak.

-I like your jacket.

-Cheers.

-[Max] Hiya.

-Hiya.

-Hello, Cat.

Don't worry,

no interviews today.

[Cat] Thanks.

-Come.

-Let's get at you. [grunts]

Oh, hello.

You all right, sweetheart?

-[Tamsin] Yeah, we missed you.

-[Nancy] Oh, missed you too.

Where's Richard?

Oh, he sends his apologies,

he's not feeling well.

That's all right.

More food for us.

[chuckles]

-Here you go.

-What did you get, Max?

-Um

-Oh, he got me this.

Oh, that's beautiful.

What is it?

-[chuckles] Do it, do it Max.

-Don't be horrible!

-He's got a thing that he does.

-No, please.

[chuckles]

[all] Do it, do it!

-[chuckles]

-Piss off!

Oh, I've wanted this for ages.

-Max might have tipped me off.

-Aw!

She's my queen.

Thank you.

I'll pass it over.

This is from Louie.

[whoops softly]

I'll look at that in a minute.

Oh, my God.

This is gorgeous.

[gasps]

-[all chuckling]

-[indistinct chatter]

It's so nice, thank you!

[chuckles]

-Don't drink it all at once.

-I'm not promising.

Thank you. Thanks.

-To Anna, happy birthday.

-Yes, happy birthday!

Cheers, guys.

[clangs]

[Nancy] I'll just make a start

at getting rid of these.

[plates clattering]

Why didn't you buy screw-tops?

Reckon we can nip upstairs

for five minutes?

Nope. They won't care.

Especially Cat.

I don't think she likes me.

We're supposed

to be entertaining.

This time next year

we'll be on holiday.

I know it seems

like miles away but

-it'll be worth it, I promise.

-[Tamsin] Dad.

-[phone ringing]

-Yeah, I got it.

[phone continues ringing]

[Max]

It's the station again, sorry.

Hello, DS Price.

[Holland] Max, it's me.

Sorry, to hijack your lunch

but there's been a development.

If I hadn't wanted that job

I hadn't been so angry

none of this

would've happened.

That's bollocks.

I wish I was more like you.

You never settle.

You always

pushing yourself,

always moving forward.

[door opens]

I am so sorry,

I gotta head to the station.

There's a briefing.

-What, now?

-I'll be back in a few hours,

I promise.

[door shuts]

When's this going to end?

What are you doing up here?

Just, uh, thinking. [chuckles]

Ryan's got Nancy playing the VR.

The world's

officially gone mental.

[chuckles]

I didn't mean

what I said yesterday.

I know.

You always told me

I could be whoever I wanted.

You can, too.

You're still grounded.

What's this?

My apology to the school,

and Stacey.

I need you to proof-read it.

I'm doing what you wanted,

taking responsibility.

I'm proud of you.

[chuckles]

Anna, you have got

to try this. Come on.

[chuckles]

[Anna] I just want you to know

you're the best friends

I could ever have!

[Nancy] Yeah, don't forget it.

[Anna] Seriously though.

Whatever happens,

I don't want you to worry.

I've got your backs.

What do you mean?

-Have you heard from Max?

-No

Too much wine, that's all.

[chuckles]

Now, go home, I'm knackered.

I'd better check on Arwel.

Tell him we said, hi.

-Happy Birthday.

-[Anna] Bye.

Thanks for a lovely lunch.

[Anna] Shame to miss Richard.

Is everything

all right with you two?

[scoffs] Yeah.

Everything's fine.

-Bye, love.

-[Anna] Bye.
