Come on, it's not that bad, is it?
OK, that will protect you, all right?
0K, you go and play.

Yas, you awake?
You know your shower's either cold or bloody freezing, don't you?
It's a Scandi lifestyle thing.
Aha, yeah, except without a sauna and a fjord,
it's just a broken shower.
Any other complaints?
Yeah, your couch is like sleeping on a speed bump.
I'm glad you stayed over, reminds me why I live alone.
Sure you don't want to run through this one last time?
No, I should have left already.
Thank you.
Why am I so nervous?
Your pitch is great, they'll love you.
But if you feel it slipping away, just get down on your knees and beg.
That's how I was going to start.
Call me when it's done.
Maybe.
Lock the door when you leave.
We're small but ambitious
and we would really love the opportunity
to be able to work with you.
I think what we can offer is a very personal service,
but with all the professional benefits.
Hello?
Hello, it's Layla, your account supervisor.
Is now a good time for a quick word on your overdraft?
Nope.
What we really think...
Yeah, I think what we will be able to do is work with you
and give you a very personal service
but with all the benefits of a big private company...
Where to?
To the school, please.
Hello, this is Ben, leave a message.
Jodie, what are you doing here?
- Is he here? - He's working.
It's really not a good time.
Jodie! Jodie?
Perhaps I can give him a message,
get him to call you, Jodie, the light is on.
Really not a good time.
Oh, what's the point of even having a light if...
Hi.
I only need him for a minute.
You should probably call ahead first,
Kate doesn't really do spontaneous.
I'm actually on a bit of a deadline, so...
Ben.
What? What is it?
I don't know how to...
Hey.
You're going to think I'm mad.
I've just seen him.
What?
Our son.
You've seen Tom?
I don't understand.
On his way to school, like any other child,
I can't make any more sense of it than you, but it was him.
I got on his bus, he was nearer to me than you are now.
Jodie...
If you'd seen him, Ben.
He has the same hair,
he moves the same,
he's...
He's exactly how I've imagined him every day since his...
He's gone, Jodie.
He has the scar.
Right here.
Lots of kids have scars.
Same face...
...same eyes...
- ...everything. - Shit.
It can't be him.
I followed him all the way to the school gates,
so that I wouldn't lose him. It's...
- ...it's Tom. - He died, Jodie.
You don't know that.
They never found him.
What happened that day...
...there's nothing we can do to change it,
you have to find a way to let him go.
I know.
I know this... this makes no sense,
and I've no idea how, or...
...or where he's been but...
...it's Tom.
Everything all right?
What does she want from you?
She thinks she saw Torn.
Christ.
You know she's playing you so she can keep on coming here
whenever she wants.
She never got over it.
Who has?
When are you going to stop indulging her?
For her sake, not ours.
Come on, darling.
Hello?
Excuse me.
Miss.
Can I help?
My son, he was abducted nine years ago.
I know where he is.
Coroner's report.
No proof of life found throughout,
no suggestion of third party involvement.
Concluded that he's suffered a tragic accident and drowned.
I'm sorry.
They dredged the lake, he wasn't there.
He wasn't found.
In almost ten years, nothing.
Until now.
You think I wouldn't recognise my own son?
It's all in there,
the couple who never came forward,
the witnesses who saw them.
He has a scar, he fell off a swing,
and he needed stitches below his left eye.
He still has it to this day.
I can't imagine what you've been through.
I don't need you to,
I just want you to get him back.
Well, leave it with us.
So, you're going to go now?
I've told you where he is.
We'll look into it.
If we find anything at all,
we'll get a warrant, we'll be in touch...
You have one new message.
Jodie, what the hell?
They've cancelled.
I tried re-scheduling but they're not interested.
Fuck's sake, Jodie, where are you?
You have one old message.
Hi, Jodie, it's your dad.
Can you please call me? I hope you're getting my messages,
I need to talk to you,
please pick up, Jodie.
Message deleted.
Jump in.
_
Hi, could you put me through to the music department, please?
Great.
Hey. you OK?
- Yeah. - I think Yasmin is going to try and kill you.
The chainsaw is not for the garden.
If you see me running, just, er, try and slow her down, will you?
I'm staying out of it, but it was good knowing you.
If you're looking for a job, you're out of luck.
Company's going bust.
Look, my car broke down and my phone died.
It was just the perfect storm, basically.
And you couldn't find a cab
to take you to the pitch that might have saved us?
- I'll call them, I'll explain. - I already tried.
- They interrupted my lie to say they'd gone with another bid. - Shit!
Yas, I'm sorry.
We had this one, Jodie, it was ours.
How many more chances do you think we'll get?
- Miss Walsh? - Yes.
Mr McKenzie, deputy head.
Um, you're here for the position of music tutor.
That's right.
This way.
Thank you.
So quite a successful, musician I see.
- In my day for a while. - Then a sizeable gap.
- I took a career break. - Why was that?
Just felt I needed a... a change of direction.
Music college?
Yeah.
We've been let down by our peripatetics in the past.
Yeah, they get jobs touring and suchlike, leave us in the lurch.
Guitarists are the worst... no offence.
I'm only interested in teaching.
And yet you've no actual teaching experience of any kind.
The odd private lesson here and there.
You know, I think music, being a musician, is, um...
...is something every child should experience.
Every child should have the opportunity to discover
a talent or even just an escape.
Absolutely.
You'll need an up to date DBS certificate,
to show there's nothing in your past to prevent you working with children,
would that be an issue?
I'm so sorry.
Look, I'm going to have to take this, er, but I think we're good.
Hello?
Right. We'll be in touch.
Is that it?
We'll let you know.
Any experience with children at all, Miss Walsh?
I have a son.
Ben?
Sorry, I can come back?
No, don't be ridiculous.
No Kate?
She waiting in the car?
I can't stay long.
She doesn't know?
I'm on the weekly food shop.
God help you if she finds out!
Does she punish you?
The police came to our house.
About Tom?
About you, actually.
Your hair's different.
Reliving my youth.
What did he say they were doing?
Apart from wasting their time.
Come on, Ben. There must be a part of you that
wonders if I'm right, that we've found Tom.
When they came to that door, I was relieved.
News can put an end to this,
but instead you're digging it all back up again.
Do you remember when we first brought him back here?
I took him upstairs and I put him in his cot
and I promised I'd keep him safe.
I saw him everywhere too, in the early days.
But there comes a point, if you keep hoping, it drives you mad.
It's him, Ben, I know it.
S0 what?
He's been living here, kept against his will, all these years,
and yet every day he gets on a bus to school.
Children come back.
It happens.
Come with me, see for yourself.
Jodie,
please, don't involve me in this.
How can I not involve you? You're his dad.
Listen, I...
I don't expect you to understand.
And try not to hate me,
but I've kind of made peace with it.
I don't think I could go through it again.
I should go.
Oh, Jason's been trying to reach you.
He wants me to change my mind about the funeral.
It would mean a lot to your mum.
I know things haven't always been easy with you two.
_
Miss Walsh?
I'm... I'm sorry, but...
...strictly speaking, you shouldn't really be on school property
until your DBS certificate comes through.
Yeah, no, I was just putting up a few flyers.
Yeah, well, I'm afraid I'm going to
have to ask you to leave, you know,
until the paperwork comes through.
Miss Walsh, if you don't mind.
Yeah. Yeah, of course.
Yas?
Back to the checkouts for me, then.
It's not the first time we've been up against it.
Yeah, but back then we had nothing to lose.
And we turned up for life-saving pitches.
Hard times.
Guess what?
My dad died.
Shit, Jodie, that's fucked up!
When?
About a week ago.
Why didn't you say?
Just wanted to make sure he wasn't coming back.
That's sad.
Not really.
You're a terrible person, you know, but I do love you.
Hello, ladies.
We have another problem.
You know I said Ade's work permit looks dodgy?
Might have to let him go.
What? Oh, come on! We're already short-handed,
and he's the best we've had!
We have to cover our backs.
It'll be better coming from you.
Come on!
Hey, Ade, can I have a word?
No, thanks.
Are you sure?
Yeah, you're good.
Yas and I both think you're great you know that.
I like working for you.
Your work papers... there's something wrong with them.
They're fake, aren't they?
I had to get work.
My real papers will come very soon.
OK. I'll cover for you.
Just need to know where you got them.
I can't say.
It's OK, it won't come back on you.
You need papers?
For me, it was the only way... for survival.
Me too.
They can do it.
You will bring the money tomorrow.
Thanks.
Our secret, yeah?
Our secret.
Come in.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
I'm sorry, I'm running really late, but...
Oh.
Miss Walsh?
Tom?
Oh, er, it's... It's Daniel, Miss.
Daniel?
Daniel...?
Tanner.
Hey. Hey, everybody, just come on in and get yourself a seat
or an instrument and just make yourself comfortable.
OK.
Well, hello, my name's Jodie.
So how long have you been playing?
I don't know, really.
Two years, three, maybe.
Who taught you?
YouTube, mostly.
Does that sound bad?
I learnt how to bake on YouTube, and that turned out all right.
The skydiving tutorial, not so much.
Have you thought about having proper lessons?
I don't think my dad would go for it, really.
What about your mum?
It's just me and my dad.
OK, well, if you ever think about it...
What's going on?
We've just finished a lesson.
You weren't supposed to teach unsupervised until your paperwork arrived.
Well, apart from the drummer spontaneously combusting,
I think we managed OK.
And Mr McKenzie has my DBS certificate.
Run along, Daniel.
Thanks, Jodie.
- See you next time. - See you.
We don't use first names here.
I'll try and remember.
_
The Lord is my shepherd.
I shall not want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures.
He leads me beside quiet waters.
He refreshes my soul.
He guides me along the right paths for his name's sake.
Even though I walked the darkest valley,
I will fear no evil, for you are with me.
Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil.
My cup runneth over.
And surely your goodness and love will follow me
all the clays of my life.
I was playing golf with him just... just last week.
Did he cheat?
Only when you took your eyes off him.
You all right?
She's fine.
I'm sorry for your loss.
You're sorry for my loss?
- Is that it? - Goodbye, Mother.
Jason, this is one day that isn't all about her!
Jodie?
Jodie, wait!
You not coming back to the house?
You said she wanted me here.
Job done.
She is grateful.
Mm, she looked thrilled to see me.
Well, I am.
Oh, hello!
Kate senses a windfall.
Look, there's something I need to tell you... about Dad.
Surprise me.
He drowned.
Officially, he had a heart attack in the bath, but...
Officially?
The toxicology report showed that his blood
was full of alcohol and anti-depressants.
He tried to call me before he died.
He left some messages on my phone.
Really?
What did he say?
Don't know, I deleted them.
You know, it really broke his heart
when you just turned your back on him.
- I turned my back on everything. - No, Jodie...
No, we were all at the lake that day and yet he always blamed me,
so, you know what? Fuck him.
- Hello, Mr McKenzie. - Hello.
Miss Walsh?
Mark Tanner, Daniel's father.
Have you been teaching here long?
Er, sorry?
I thought we'd met.
No.
I'm new, I take music workshops.
Well, Daniel's mentioned you,
and he doesn't usually talk about his teachers.
Made me curious to see you for myself.
He's a promising musician.
Well, he doesn't get that from me.
With the right help, I think he could go as far as he wants to.
Could he?
I could teach him if you like, after school?
I don't think that's a good idea.
Music sucks up enough of his time already.
I really think he could benefit.
He's got after-school clubs, football.
I could come to the home, if that would help?
No.
I... I appreciate your interest, but we're fine as we are.
It was nice to meet you.
Hey. I met your dad at parents' evening.
You told him about the...?
I told him I thought you needed some proper lessons.
He didn't seem interested.
Yeah, no kidding.
I think, perhaps, if you just talk to him, show him how keen you are.
Where do I know you from?
You're going to be late for class.
OK.
Just ask him about extra lessons.
You ask him!
- Miss Walsh? - Mr Tanner.
Is everything all right? I thought we discussed...
Can I come in?
