Can I get you anything?
How is she?
I don't know if it's shock, or grief, or both.
But the poor kid -
she's not said a single word,
she's not moved since the police brought her home.
What could she say?
How do you put that into words?
I just can't believe that he's gone.
Hey.
You got my message?Yeah.
Is Whitney inside?
I'm not sure she's up to seeing anyone at the minute.
Do the police know what happened?
Only what I told you.
He got hit by a train.
How?
I've got no idea, man.
Well, we're all going to find out sooner or later.
See you in a bit, yeah?
What are you looking at?
Hm?
Oh, our takings.
15% down month on month.
We need more feet coming through that door.
Just not them feet. Morning, Kim.
If you've come to dump another lot of them Foxcatcher flyers on us...
No, no, that's not why I'm here.
What, is it? Is it Patrick? Is he OK?
No, he's fine.
I, erm,
I bumped into Keegan.
He was upset, and he said, um...
He said Kush is dead.
Is this some kind of wind-up?
Cos I don't see how it could be funny.
It was last night. It was some kind of accident,
and I couldn't push him to say any more, I couldn't.
Is this for real?
What, he's...
..he's dead, like...
..like, actually...
..dead?
Yeah, that's exactly what I'm trying to tell you,
I've checked the tracking code, it just says, "in transit".
I don't know what that's supposed to mean.Linda, stop hassling me!
Have you escaped? Mick's been worried sick.
I will talk to Mick in my own good time.
All you need to worry about is Kush Kazemi's a backstabbing toerag,
and, after I've had a coffee, I'm going to go round there
and rip his flaming face off!
Wow, OK, seems reasonable.
Maybe you could take Ollie to school for me so I can talk to Shirley.
No, I can't today.
You're on holiday. Ain't like you've got anything else to do.
Save your breath, Linda. We are not having a "little chat".
I'm going to have a coffee, a fag and some kip!
Is that before or after you've torn Kush's face off?
There's no need to worry about me.
There's poor Whitney, and Carmel...
Oh, God, Carmel.
I have to ring her.
Just give yourself some time first to come to terms with it, all right?
I know you loved him once.
Just 35 years old.
Almost the same age as Paul.
Still hurts.
Always.
I'm sorry about Kush.
DOORBELL RINGS Oh, that must...be the nurse.
I didn't know that you still agreed to do the trial.
Oh, I haven't.
This is to decide.
Maybe we should reschedule,
you know, with Mum at work and everything.
No, no, no, I am not postponing anything.
Thanks.
Having a relaxing morning? You might want to clear up after yourself.
All right, give me a chance. You're not a teenager any more...
Yes, I'm aware of that, thank you.
Why are you being so chippy?
If I am being a bit "chippy", maybe it's cos I think you could
have helped me out with your brother this morning.
I've got to be here. I'm waiting for a parcel.
I've got to sign for it.
What is it?
None of your beeswax.
OK, all right, maybe I overreacted.
But it's just not about helping me.
It's about Ollie -
with his autism, I get a bit over sensitive when people back away...
What? I'm not backing away.
Why would I do that?
If anyone knows how it feels to be different, it's me.
You managing your epilepsy all right? Yes.
When was your last seizure? Ages ago.
Look, just cos I brought it up,
we don't have to have a whole conversation about it, OK?
Good.
That's good.
Did you get my text?
Think that's why they let us go.
Well, what did they say when they released you?
"Released pending further investigation."
What's there to investigate?
They had the word of one man.
A dead man.
What? He was a grass.
Whatever he was, whatever he did, he didn't deserve that.
What are you looking at me like that for? Oh, I don't know, Ben.
Just all seems a bit of a coincidence after yesterday,
don't it? We had nothing to do with this.
I believe you.
Good.
Callum.
You heard?
Yeah.
Have you seen Whitney?
It just don't make sense,
him falling under a train that time of night?
The platform would have been empty.
Hard to see this as some sort of accident.
You don't reckon he jumped, do you?
GRAY EXHALES
I don't know.
I just worry that what happened in court
might have just tipped him over the edge.
I don't know how I'd live with it.
If that is what happened, then it has nothing to do with you.
Yeah, but it has everything to do with Ben.
I can see why this might weigh heavy on you.
Your colleagues might have a good idea about it.
Why don't you ask around, put your mind at rest?
Yeah.
Yeah, I'll do that.
Oh... I'm sorry.It's all right, don't worry, don't worry,
don't worry. This vein doesn't seem to want to play ball,
and I'm having trouble finding another.
Is that because the colour of his skin?
No.
When you're taking blood from older patients,
it just takes a little longer finding a viable vein.
So maybe older patients shouldn't be doing this then.
I mean, have you even explained the risks?
You know he's had at least two strokes, right...?
That's the reason why I'm doing it.
There are always risks with new drugs,
but we think it could be as good or better than the old one.
But you're not sure.
Come on, man, if they were sure,
then there'd be no need for the trial!
Tell me straight....
You think I'd make a good candidate?
Yes. Absolutely.
Right, that's decided, then.
Great.
Let me get some paperwork for you to fill in.
Listen, man...
..the risks...
..are small,
but if it helps people like me down the line, then...
..it's worth taking.
This is something I want to do.
You understand?
I don't like it.
But it's your life.
You'll do what you want.
HE EXHALES
Oh... It's you.
Why are you so surprised? I told you I lived round here.
That's true...
I thought you'd want to steer well clear of the dog thief.
OK, so I know I jumped to conclusions.
That's why I'm here.
To see you.
Well, why did you act so surprised?
That seemed less embarrassing. DOG YAPS
Anyways, I wanted to find a way to say sorry for being such a cow,
so, if you want him, Ziggy's all yours for the day.
What, really?
Sorry, I thought maybe you and Bailey would've been missing him.
Yeah, yeah, course we have... So take him!
Go to the park, boy, have fun.
Ziggy, you be a good boy for Bernie.
Bernie, you be a good girl for Ziggy.
I'll text you and maybe we can meet up later, yeah?
We lost one of our regulars last night.
Most of you knew Kush.
Anyone that didn't, let me tell you something now,
he was one of the kindest geezers to ever set foot in this boozer.
This was his tankard.
It will always have a place behind this bar.
This one's on the house, Kush.
We'll miss you, mate.
To Kush.
One of life's true gents.
ALL: To Kush.
Seriously?
I'm sorry the bloke's dead...
..but I can't drink to a grass.
Dad, are you OK with that?
I'm not going to tell you what to think, mother.
We're trying to mourn a friend here,
so, please, can you take your thoughts somewhere else?
Might go and see Martin later.
I can't believe I'm never going to see them two
having a pint together again.
Sounds like he had a lot to live for.
What's that supposed to mean?
I don't know...
He wouldn't have jumped? What... Is that what people are saying?
Oh, no, it's just gossip.
No-one knows what happened, everyone's just talking pony.
There's cameras everywhere now, so whatever did happen...
..it won't stay a mystery for long.
Who that's for, mate? Don't worry, it's for me
Callum?
I'm popping over to Whitney's later if you want me to take something.
You know, flowers, or whatever.
Oh, mate, thanks, but I'll wait till tomorrow. See her myself.
Yeah.
You seem more relaxed now, anyway.
Yeah, well... I asked about at work.
They don't think that Kush jumped.
Whitney said that they were heading to the airport,
leaving for good. Did you know?
Off to start a new life together, apparently.
I mean, she said they were happy, excited...
Do they know what happened? Hm, not really.
It was one of them last trains of the night, you know,
so it was quiet. And Whit told the SIO that
there was no-one there before she left.
Scoured the whole area looking for evidence. There was nothing.
The CCTV was busted, vandalised for some technical thing, apparently.
Oh, I did take a look at the press release
and they're calling it an accident.
Sorry, it's, uh...
Just thinking about Whitney. Everything she's gone through.
Yeah, yeah.
You're one of the few people who can probably understand.
I know you two must've got close, what with the kids and everything...
I'm just really glad she's got you in her corner.
Someone who gets it, you know?
Who cares.
Yeah.
See you, mate.

Can you get him to sit?
Banjo, sit.
Good boy!He won't do that for me.
You can get him to do anything, really. He's a smart dog.
Yeah, but I'm quite a stupid human.
Fancy a coffee?
Oh, I don't know.
We should really get back. Bailey's got homework.
I did it all at school.
You two should definitely go and get a coffee.
I'll probably take Banjo for a little walk.
Come on, Banjo.
Looks like Ziggy ain't the only clever one.
SOFTLY: What?
She was leaving us alone?
Oh, I...don't know why she would do that.
Cos maybe she could see I was looking to ask you out.
No, Kevin, I'm not saying it's a bad photograph, no.
It's just that some of the ladies have reported a...
..resemblance to Jamie Theakston?
Hello? Hello...? Kevin?
SHE SCOFFS
He hung up!
You look how I feel.
Something on your mind?
I don't know, just this trial Patrick's doing.
Volunteering himself like some sort of lab rat.
HE CLICKS HIS TONGUE
And then there's Paul.
Why don't people want to talk about Paul, Kim?
I'm just... Um...
See, you're doing it now -
you're reacting exactly how everyone else does.
Why don't people want to talk about him?
Well, I dunno how much I can tell you.
I mean, if no-one's said anything to you...
Well, did he die of, like, cancer or something?
He was murdered.
SHE SOBS DOOR SHUTS
KEYS CLINK
Kids OK?
I just, uh... SHE CLEARS HER THROAT
..need a little bit of time to myself.
Should've called me sooner. I would've come straight over.
Yeah... I know you would.
But, you know, it's your first day back at the station and...
Anyway, I wanted to work.
HE SIGHS Look, I'm so sorry, Dee. I just...
I mean, it's unbelievable.
Yeah.
Oh, I, uh... I phoned Carmel.
What, you had to tell her?
No, no... Sh...
Someone called, like the British consulate...
..I think.
She just... She cried and cried.
I didn't know what to say.
And then, when I put the phone down...
SHE SIGHS
..I looked at this sofa.
Carmel and Kim, they were sat here when I told them
all about this new fella that I was seeing and how I felt about him...
And Carmel was like, "Oh, that's lovely!"
And then, they was asking me, "Who is he? Where did you meet him?"
Then I...I walked over to Kush...
..and I sat down beside him...
SHE SOBS
..and...
SHE SNIFFLES
..and he held my hand, and the way he looked at me...
SHE SOBS
He was so full of love...
..you know?
Had a lot of love to give, that man. I know.
And he'd only just found the right person to give it to.
Whitney? There's someone here to see you.
I won't stay long.
Hey.
The kids, um...
..made you some cards.
They wanted you to know that they're thinking about you.
And so am I.
Whitney, I'm...
..so sorry about Kush.
QUIETLY: Don't you dare...
..even say his name.
Whitney, he's just passing on his condolences.No.
I don't want nothing from him.
If it weren't for him, Kush would still be here.
HE SCOFFS
We wouldn't have even had to run if it weren't for the Mitchells,
but you...
You got into bed with them...
..and you took their dirty money,
so as far as I'm concerned, you're as guilty as they are.
Whitney...Get out. I think you should go...
Sonia, I mean it, get him out of here.
I do not want to see your face again. Whitney, please...
You killed him!
Get out!
GET OUT!
You killed him!
