00:00 (upbeat music)
00:02 - Come on, come on, pick up, pick up.
00:20 - This is Lisa, I can't take it anymore.
00:28 - There's still no answer.
00:30 You know, I should have gone to the airport, gone off.
00:32 Then why did you stop me?
00:33 - There's nothing we could have done.
00:34 - Sorry, I'm not blaming you.
00:36 I was hours away from that court order.
00:40 - You'll see Peggy again.
00:41 - Lisa won't even answer the phone.
00:43 - Well, if we just calm down and wait,
00:46 then we can ask for video access
00:47 and maybe visits after that.
00:49 - No, I'm not just gonna sit and wait.
00:51 All right, I'm getting my little girl back,
00:54 whatever it takes.
00:55 (door opens)
00:57 - Rocky, you really don't have to do this.
01:05 - Look, I do.
01:06 Today, we should have been setting off on a honeymoon,
01:09 but thanks to me, we are here, tripless and poppers.
01:13 So I've decided I'm mucking in instead of mucking up.
01:16 - You heard about your brother?
01:19 An ex, two and a pretty wedding.
01:22 - Imagine that.
01:23 (phone rings)
01:24 - Having a little gossip, are we?
01:25 - No, Kat, we're just hoping married life's going well
01:27 and that's all, darling.
01:28 - Well, you can tell the room, Emil,
01:29 that it's been a complicated start,
01:32 but it's made us all the more determined to make it work.
01:34 - Yeah, well, good for you, girl.
01:35 Yeah, man, love.
01:37 Oh, that's a wonderful thing to have, you know, man.
01:39 Oh, listen to Mr. Romance here.
01:42 Hey, Kimmy, I think you should get Paddy
01:43 on that video thing of yours.
01:45 - Yeah, that Kimfluencer thing.
01:46 You haven't done it for ages.
01:47 When's he coming back?
01:48 - Oh, coming soon.
01:49 Can I have a coffee, please?
01:50 - Yeah, I used to love all that.
01:51 Seriously, I loved it.
01:52 I was one of your Kimmy Fox cubs,
01:54 just hanging on your pearls of wisdom, darling.
01:56 I reckon your brain is like one big happy, jolly glitter ball.
01:59 Paddy, thanks for breakfast.
02:00 - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - See you later, Emil.
02:02 - You're coming to join, though?
02:03 - Mm-hmm.
02:04 - You know what, I've gotta be,
02:07 sorry, cancel the coffee, yeah?
02:09 I'll see you later.
02:10 - Oh, Rocky, will you calm down?
02:16 The punters won't recognize the place.
02:18 I've said it's forgiven.
02:19 - Forgiven, but never forgotten.
02:21 I still can't look at that Nish with that shuddering.
02:24 - Nish?
02:26 What's he got to do with it?
02:26 - What, honeymoon, huh?
02:29 He won it in that poker game, the steak do.
02:31 Didn't I tell you about it?
02:33 - Suki is going on my honeymoon?
02:37 - Hey.
02:39 (men shouting)
02:42 - Martin, you still want me on the stall later?
02:44 Good man.
02:45 (men shouting)
02:47 - Boys, eh, playing with their balls.
02:51 (men shouting)
02:53 - See, women do this so much better.
02:56 Talking about football, honestly.
02:58 No, Italy-Argentina last night, it was epic.
03:02 You're not joining them, Martin?
03:04 No?
03:06 It's just, Stacy said you're really good at
03:08 heaping up his...
03:11 - Tombo?
03:12 - I was excited!
03:15 - No, I am the one being cheated on here.
03:18 - So, go on, where you taking her on a hot date today?
03:23 - The allotment.
03:24 - Oh, I'll get my wife in a vegetable.
03:28 - No, hold up, it's gonna be a nice picnic.
03:30 Make the place look all lovely,
03:31 and have a place to ourselves.
03:34 - Ooh.
03:34 - Here, can I have a word?
03:37 - Thank goodness for that.
03:38 - Why won't your lawyer mate pick up the phone?
03:42 - Well, maybe because there's been a rude bloke
03:46 on the end of it, leaving obnoxious messages
03:48 all morning.
03:48 - I just want my kid back.
03:50 - Yeah, I know what's happened, okay?
03:53 And I am sorry, really, but you have to calm down.
03:55 - There must be a way of making
03:57 that prohibited steps thing work.
03:59 - But if Peggy's already left the country--
04:00 - Please, just call your friend for me,
04:02 tell him that I'll do anything.
04:04 Please, please.
04:05 (sighs)
04:09 - Such a mug.
04:09 - Come on, let's go and finish up one of the clunkies.
04:13 - No, no, no, no, no, mate,
04:14 listen, I wanna stay away from the bookies,
04:15 I might be lucky enough to be working there soon.
04:16 - Yeah, Timber York, let's go!
04:17 Girls, if you wanna play, we'll play at Timber York.
04:22 - Sharon, yeah, we might have a bit of a problem.
04:31 - Oh, God.
04:36 Ah, cheers, mate, cheers, thank you.
04:40 Eh, here you go.
04:42 - Talked to him, not said a word about it.
04:44 And now she's learning Greek.
04:46 - She's got a chick.
04:48 - Yeah, but, Nish, you want it fair and square?
04:50 - How do you feel?
04:53 - I've been drinking it.
04:54 - No, not that, this, you're flaunting it.
04:56 I should stick that phrase,
04:58 but with a Greek sun, don't shine.
05:01 - All right, Mum, Kalimera is good morning,
05:05 Galispera is good afternoon,
05:08 and Kalamari is--
05:12 - Good evening.
05:14 - No, it's squid.
05:17 - I was trying to make a joke.
05:18 Mum, this trip, it's a good thing.
05:24 Time alone with Dad.
05:25 - Yeah, I'm just worried about this Leeds deal,
05:29 leaving it all with you.
05:31 - I will handle them.
05:33 You just concentrate on you and Dad.
05:36 Now, this trip's cost him a fortune, you heard him,
05:39 and took months to plan.
05:44 I want to prove how much you mean to him.
05:47 - He's plotting some legal battle with Eve.
05:54 - You know, I hate this, talking behind his back.
05:56 - What, we've got much choice.
05:57 - What if I explained everything, say why I helped?
06:00 - Do you want to confess?
06:01 Sharon, he's never gonna see that you's on his side.
06:03 - All these lies, Martin.
06:05 - Yeah, 'cause he's always honest with you.
06:07 Look, everything that you were offering Peggy,
06:09 a stable home, that is what you're risking
06:11 with Albie, by speaking out.
06:13 So why do it?
06:14 Risk your whole relationship, your family.
06:18 - I know.
06:21 - You can't tell him, Sharon, never.
06:23 - Hi. - Hi.
06:33 - Is everything okay?
06:35 - Yeah, I'm just gonna go and check on Denzel.
06:38 First day of summer and he's sitting in his bedroom.
06:41 I think him and Amy had a bus up.
06:43 - Leave him.
06:44 - Teenage boys in their rooms with the door shut.
06:49 I know the rules.
06:50 I knock first.
06:51 - I don't want to talk about Denzel,
06:53 I want to talk about you.
06:54 - I hate dogs, you know.
06:57 I mean, it's an envelope, not an alien invasion.
07:00 It's up to you to attack and save the world.
07:02 Everything all right?
07:06 - No, I was just asking her that.
07:09 - I mean, you looked troubled in the cafe earlier on.
07:11 - Has something happened?
07:12 - It's not people are only saying good things about you.
07:17 They want the Kimfluencer back.
07:20 - Yeah, they're right.
07:21 It's what your followers were saying, I know.
07:23 Come back, Kim, bring back the Kimfluencer.
07:25 - No. - Our guru, our hero.
07:27 She's amazing, she's fabulous.
07:29 - She's gone.
07:30 - Kim.
07:31 - But that's what they're gonna tell me
07:32 at the therapy session, isn't it?
07:34 I'm not amazing, I'm not fabulous.
07:38 I'm mad in the head.
07:39 - All right, mate.
07:50 Okay.
07:52 Yeah, thanks for your time.
07:54 Wait.
07:54 Peggy has to be in the country
08:00 for that prohibitive steps order to work.
08:02 - Listen, there's got to be something.
08:04 Call him back.
08:06 Please, I'm her dad.
08:07 - I know.
08:08 But Lisa's our legal guardian.
08:10 She lives abroad, which means pursuing it
08:12 through the Portuguese courts.
08:13 - Right, okay.
08:14 - Which costs.
08:15 - Yeah, I'll pay.
08:16 - And it could take months, even years.
08:18 And there's no guarantees.
08:20 I mean, probably not, you know,
08:21 with the whole absent father thing.
08:24 He thinks that your best chance is
08:30 to appeal to Lisa, direct.
08:34 - He won't even pick up the phone.
08:37 - You could try and get him back in the country.
08:39 Ask another relative to help.
08:42 - What, Phil?
08:44 - I think he's your only chance.
08:47 - All I'm saying is, is it really any of their business?
08:59 - No.
09:00 So a bloke pulling the wool over his wife's eyes
09:02 is fine, is it?
09:04 - I'll be back to help with the packing, ma'am.
09:06 - All right?
09:06 - Yeah.
09:07 - No, it's not fine.
09:09 I know it's wrong.
09:09 It's lying, and it's wrong, obviously.
09:13 - So we're in agreement?
09:14 - Yeah.
09:15 - No, we'll go and tell her then.
09:16 - Come again?
09:17 - You're the one who created this mess,
09:19 so you can go and sort it out.
09:21 Go on.
09:22 - Sookie, I'm off on a screak island cruise,
09:28 and I've got a bit of background for you,
09:31 because, well.
09:34 - Your husband didn't buy the trip
09:37 to prove how much he loves you.
09:40 He won it in a poker game.
09:42 It's our honeymoon.
09:43 - I think she got the message.
09:54 - Yeah, she's writing off.
09:56 - Oh, very posh.
10:03 - Oh, yeah.
10:04 Yeah, Sharon's, isn't it?
10:05 For occasion, dining only.
10:07 - Oh.
10:08 - Yeah, look.
10:09 Look at that.
10:10 - Oh, chips.
10:11 - Tell me I don't know the way into your heart.
10:13 - Yeah, you do.
10:14 - I do, don't I?
10:15 All right, let's get tucked in, shall we?
10:20 - Oh, this is lovely.
10:21 - In the bubbly.
10:22 What's that, your client?
10:29 Go on, take it.
10:33 - I'm so sorry.
10:33 I completely forgot I was supposed
10:35 to have a video call with him now.
10:36 - Right.
10:37 - Martin, we have talked about this.
10:41 - Yeah, how you want the money.
10:43 - No, I need the money.
10:43 There's a difference, all right?
10:45 There's a baby on the way,
10:46 and no matter how much everyone says they'll help you,
10:48 they never do, do they, really?
10:50 I always end up sorting it out on my own.
10:52 - Yeah, well, you're not on your own, Stace, okay?
10:56 Go on, take it.
10:57 You should take the job.
11:00 - No, I can't anyway,
11:02 'cause I've got no one to have the kids.
11:04 Mum's gone on an emergency cleaning job.
11:06 - All right, well, I'll watch the kids.
11:10 - What, well, no.
11:14 No, I ain't asking you to do that.
11:17 - Well, you can ask me.
11:18 - Well, just pay quick,
11:23 so I can get her something nice later,
11:25 like posh chips, wolferdee's chips.
11:28 - Sounds good.
11:31 All right, well, I'll call you.
11:33 - Yeah, yeah, I'll follow you.
11:34 I'll just tidy all this away, shall I?
11:35 - All right, I'm sorry.
11:36 - Patrick's giving us space.
11:43 Any excuse to be in the boot with her or run.
11:47 - I leave the mad woman to it.
11:48 - No one saying that word?
11:51 - Meeting, headcase session, reprogramming, more like.
11:56 - Help.
11:59 - I just wanna support you getting better.
12:01 When I hear you speak about yourself like this,
12:16 I wish,
12:17 I wish you could see what everyone else sees.
12:23 What?
12:28 People never saw me, yeah?
12:30 That's what this whole thing's about.
12:34 They will see Denise or Clever Libby
12:37 or beautiful Chelsea, never me.
12:40 - I saw you.
12:42 - You saw me after I built all of this.
12:44 The hair, the nails, the sequins, the wall paint.
12:50 And then all of a sudden, oh look, it's Kim.
12:52 We notice her.
12:54 The glitter, the sparkles.
12:58 It's all lies.
13:00 It's all fake news and hold it all in because--
13:05 - It's still you.
13:06 Just the part of you maybe that's the confident you.
13:11 - Well, I don't know where that confident bit of me is
13:13 right now, yeah?
13:15 And the part that's left, don't feel worth looking at.
13:19 If I go online, they've all moved on.
13:25 They're following other people.
13:26 I mean, there's literally nothing to see here.
13:29 - You wanna know what I see when I look at you?
13:33 I see someone brave.
13:37 Strong.
13:40 And so much to offer.
13:44 - Yeah, hours of community service.
13:48 - You're a supernova.
13:50 - Oh, and now you're comparing me to a dying star.
13:53 Okay.
13:54 - Okay, wrong word.
13:55 Wrong comparison.
13:56 What I mean is,
14:04 I know you, Kim.
14:09 Not just the glitter,
14:12 but all of you.
14:16 And you are amazing, Miss Fox.
14:25 And I honestly believe you going to therapy,
14:29 looking after your mental health,
14:31 helping yourself to live with this PTSD,
14:34 it doesn't make you broken or fragile or less.
14:38 It makes you strong.
14:41 More.
14:44 Let's try checking in on your fox cubs.
14:49 Maybe.
14:53 - I'm not sure.
14:54 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
14:56 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
14:57 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
14:58 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
14:59 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
15:00 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
15:01 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
15:02 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
15:03 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
15:03 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
15:04 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
15:05 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
15:06 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
15:07 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
15:08 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
15:09 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
15:09 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
15:10 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
15:11 - I'm sure they're doing fine.
15:12 - Come on guys, get her out, get her out, get her out.
15:14 Move, come on.
15:15 Up, up.
15:16 Watch your guard, keep your guard up.
15:18 Come on, move those feet fast.
15:20 Come on guys, speed.
15:21 - You know, I'm here for Peggy.
15:24 Right, because we never should have let them
15:27 get on that plane, it was a riot.
15:28 - Yeah, and I'm glad it's now, Phil.
15:30 - Yeah.
15:31 - You knew she was going, I got the tickets.
15:33 - But I had a plan to stop her,
15:35 right, so I hid the passports.
15:36 - Genius.
15:37 - Because I had a legal order coming, okay,
15:39 to try and agree access.
15:41 You know, it isn't right that Lisa dictates Peggy's life.
15:44 - For a legally appointed guardian.
15:46 - An addict.
15:47 Yeah, look, I know that you've been, Phil,
15:51 with your struggles, but what if Lisa can't beat things
15:54 like you did?
15:55 Or what happens when she needs money again?
15:57 What happens to my daughter then, eh?
15:59 - What do you want?
16:01 - Help.
16:04 Call her, Lisa, get her to bring Peggy back here
16:07 so the courts can act and use that order,
16:09 but for it to work, Peggy has to be in the country.
16:12 - Or take her away from her mother, you mean?
16:13 Yeah, Louise, yeah, do you remember her?
16:16 - Yeah, who had no idea where she was.
16:17 She was too busy at her spa with Sam.
16:19 No, all I'm saying is, is think about it.
16:23 - The only thing I'm thinking about
16:24 is how hard I should hit you.
16:25 - Oh, Phil.
16:26 - Do you know, after everything,
16:26 after everything you've done, you ask me this,
16:28 you ask me to betray my own daughter.
16:30 - Well, help mine, keep her safe.
16:32 - Listen, the only person who'll keep her safe is Louise.
16:34 You, you're nothing, do you hear me?
16:36 - Love that little girl, Phil, all right?
16:37 - Look at you.
16:39 Look at you, standing there, begging,
16:41 knowing how pathetic it is,
16:42 knowing this was never, ever gonna work.
16:45 You've lost her.
16:46 You've lost her, and you know it.
16:48 And you're never gonna see your daughter again,
16:51 not for the rest of your miserable life.
16:53 - Guard, get your guard up.
17:00 Mark, if they speak fast, they might not speak.
17:02 - It's not blood, Arthur, it's ketchup.
17:05 You do not need to go to A&E.
17:08 - Very vivid imagination, the condiments, that boy.
17:10 - The kids are still eating.
17:11 I was gonna take them for food while Stacey...
17:14 - Works.
17:15 - Yeah. - I won't be long.
17:19 Elaine just wants me to give the gents a quick once-over
17:21 with a wet flannel.
17:23 The toilets, that is, not the customers.
17:25 Some emergency, the details of which
17:27 none of us need to know.
17:29 Are you okay?
17:30 With everything?
17:32 - Yeah, yeah, of course.
17:34 (laughs)
17:36 - You all right, kids?
17:42 - Oh, right, Mummy's gonna go and have a lay down.
17:46 - Mum's got a headache.
17:48 - Oh.
17:49 - Yeah, Daddy's gonna look after you, so be good, okay?
17:51 - Dad?
17:52 - Yeah?
17:53 - Why's Mummy put lipstick on to lie down?
17:56 - Because...
18:01 Mummy likes to look pretty in her dreams.
18:04 - Service with a smile as ever.
18:10 - Mum, have you seen Sharon?
18:12 Her phone switched off.
18:14 I really need her.
18:15 - Why, what's happened?
18:18 - Suki, tell me I'm wrong,
18:29 but look to me like you could've done
18:31 with her listening ear earlier on.
18:32 Look, talk, don't talk, it's up to you,
18:36 but I couldn't just stand by and watch you being lied to.
18:39 Look, I do know how you feel, you know?
18:43 And us women, we should stick together.
18:44 I mean, it's them who's in the wrong,
18:46 the gambling, the lies.
18:48 We're the victims here.
18:49 - Is that how you see yourself, a victim?
18:51 - Yeah, but one who fights back.
18:53 And don't worry, I've let Rocky have it with both barrels.
18:56 Come on, offload.
19:00 Have a drink, rant, do whatever you wanna do.
19:03 - Ranting's not my style.
19:10 But,
19:13 both barrels, I should cut it.
19:17 Now that I would be interested in.
19:28 (upbeat music)
19:31 - Only if you're sure, yeah?
19:35 - Yeah, just a hello, yeah?
19:36 - Yeah. - I can manage that.
19:37 - Yeah? - Yeah.
19:39 No.
19:45 Hello.
19:49 That's all I wanted to say.
19:54 Hi, hi.
19:57 Yeah, I am.
19:58 Oh, they're watching.
20:03 Well, of course you're watching.
20:04 You're my fox cubbies.
20:05 Oh, look at the hearts, hearts.
20:07 Aw.
20:08 Yes, the Foxcatcher is back in the house, live,
20:14 let me tell you, yes.
20:15 So remember to like, share, and adore.
20:19 And also, send me all your hikes, yeah.
20:22 Let me tell you about a wedding I went to last week.
20:25 Name me no names, name me no names.
20:28 Fabulous nails for the bride, courtesy of moi, yes.
20:32 But what happened next, well,
20:34 wasn't sure of wild, let me tell you.
20:37 (laughing)
20:39 Peggy could have been with us now,
20:42 living legally in this country.
20:44 - But I've lost her.
20:45 And Phil's right, it's all my fault.
20:48 - Don't say that. - It's true.
20:49 I'll never forgive myself.
20:52 - Or Sharon.
20:54 - Mum, for once.
20:56 How can you possibly make this about her?
20:58 - She hid the passports.
21:00 So she says.
21:02 - Yeah, she did.
21:04 - And she went behind your back with Phil
21:06 to get the tickets.
21:07 - And she was sorry about that.
21:09 Right, she's been there for me, Mum,
21:10 so stop accusing her, please.
21:11 - Fine, sorry.
21:13 Still, Phil's a bit odd.
21:18 Two passports hidden on a really high shelf just get found.
21:22 - You're saying?
21:23 - Well, was there anyone else in the house
21:24 that could have helped her?
21:26 Could have found out about the plan?
21:28 (TV playing)
21:38 - What's Mummy laughing at?
21:54 - Uh, she must be feeling better.
21:56 - No, you're going to Oscar.
21:57 - No, no, I'll tell you what.
21:59 I'll go to Oscar, yeah?
22:02 You stay here.
22:03 - Have I got time to talk to you?
22:17 No, I'm not up to anything really.
22:20 Just boring.
22:22 You're the highlight of my day.
22:24 Well done.
22:38 I'm always with the wet cloth when I get going.
22:40 Cup of tea?
22:40 - No, I've got to go.
22:42 (upbeat music)
22:48 (phone ringing)
22:51 - Hi.
22:54 - I've been trying to call you.
22:57 - I was charging my phone.
22:59 Why?
23:01 - Him.
23:02 - What?
23:03 - You were there, weren't you?
23:06 At the house when Lisa found the passports,
23:08 you helped her.
23:09 - I don't know what you're saying.
23:10 Come on, let's go home and talk.
23:12 - Yeah.
23:13 Yeah, you're right, it was me.
23:14 - You admit it.
23:15 - Lisa was tearing the house apart.
23:17 She would have found them.
23:18 - You what?
23:18 - Can't you, they were just there on the side.
23:21 So yeah, I handed them over.
23:22 I thought nothing of it.
23:24 How was I supposed to know?
23:25 Wait till I see you yelling at her in the street.
23:27 So I drove off.
23:28 - I lost my daughter because of you.
23:30 - No, that's not my fault.
23:31 - You let her take her, Martin.
23:32 - Let's just go home and talk.
23:34 - You think I really want him there?
23:36 Pack your things and leave the house.
23:37 - No.
23:38 No, we can't do that.
23:39 - Sharon, I can't face him every day
23:40 knowing what he's done.
23:41 I'll kill him.
23:42 - Then you ought to try me.
23:43 - Look, can we just calm down, please?
23:47 - He goes.
23:48 Why don't you tell him?
23:50 You don't have to.
23:58 I'll go.
24:00 No, I'm going.
24:08 - Wait, now, man.
24:13 Are all these messages from real people?
24:15 - My fox cubbies, disciples.
24:17 - Of course they are.
24:18 - Yeah, they love me.
24:20 I knew they would.
24:20 - Glad to see they all came back.
24:24 - Listen, that is so true.
24:26 I am back.
24:27 And that's what I told them when I canceled.
24:29 - Canceled what?
24:31 - The therapy.
24:32 I don't need it now, do I?
24:33 I'm back to the old me.
24:35 Look.
24:36 Okay.
24:37 That one there, right there.
24:38 Read that.
24:39 (sighs)
24:41 (yells)
25:06 (phone rings)
25:08 (phone beeps)
25:17 - Baby, it might not be the--
25:29 - I know, all right.
25:31 I know it ain't our fault.
25:32 It kind of is.
25:34 - The things my people gave up for us.
25:36 - I can't let you take the blame.
25:38 - Well, you can't risk your family.
25:40 Protect Albie.
25:42 - They're making you hopeless.
25:43 - That's right.
25:44 Give me a couple of days, I'll find somewhere.
25:45 - You're my friend, Martin.
25:47 - And as a friend,
25:48 you need to make this relationship work.
25:51 At least one of us can be happy.
25:53 - Meaning?
25:54 Is that what happened?
25:56 - Trust me.
25:57 Truth ain't always the best way.
26:03 - I was just agreeing that I need to take my punishment.
26:07 - Punishment?
26:08 What punishment?
26:09 - Martin says it was him.
26:11 That he helped Lisa with her passports.
26:14 - You?
26:15 - An accident.
26:17 That's right, isn't it, Sharon?
26:19 An accident.
26:22 - Keanu can beg all he likes.
26:26 No access ever.
26:29 It has to be this way.
26:31 I just, I hope you can see that.
26:32 - That Lisa.
26:33 - Sharon, I did want to thank you.
26:35 All those years of us fighting
26:37 and you've come up trumps,
26:39 helping you and Martin,
26:42 getting those passports for me.
26:44 I mean, I could never have done it without you.
