We're sold a lie from birth.
The idea that there are good people and bad people.
But there aren't.
We all have the best of intentions.
We need some help!
Love can justify almost anything.
If you believe in it hard enough.
It can make us all do terrible things.
Hey you.
Jack?
Yeah, coming.
No, of course. Of course.
No, I understand.
No, she'll be fine.
She'll be fine.
It'll be fine.
I'll make it fine.
Just leave it up to me.
Yeah, no. I'll tell her myself.
No, I think I'll wait and tell her in the morning.
Because tonight's our wedding anniversary, Jen.
No, not ours. Mine and Tasha's.
All right. Yeah.
You know?
No, I appreciate the call.
All right. Okay.
I'm going now. Bye bye.
-You don't wanna know. -I do. Tell me.
Look at this.
What have I done to deserve this?
Emily's asleep.
One story. Milk. Conked out.
So what was she saying?
She called about my sister.
-Hayley? -Mm-hm.
A heads up.
Wine first, I think.
Oh, a heads up... Tonight.
She knows exactly when we got married, Jack.
Trust me.
So what was she saying about Hayley?
Well, apparently she wants us to be Ethan's godparents.
Oh, wow. That's so nice.
No, sorry.
Me and Jen -she wants me and Jen to be Ethan's godparents.
-Hence the heads up. -Oh yeah.
Wait, your sister wants you and your ex-wife
to be her only child's godparents?
And I'm...
You're Auntie Tash.
They definitely want you there.
It's just Jen and Hayley have been best friends for 20 years.
All right.
Okay. Okay.
I know it's not the most glamorous wedding anniversary gift
and I know you hate receiving handouts.
It's always in the back of your head.
Now it's gone.
The rest of my student loan.
-Thank you. -You're welcome.
-Fuck!
Fucking idiots.
Thanks for all your fucking help.. Nice one.
I said you needed a criminal lawyer, not a media one.
Why didn't you hammer home the mitigating circumstances.
That's all you needed to... Oh.
Didn't do mitigating because they didn't play well.
How would bringing that up have helped us?
I don't know. You're the one arguing the case, not me.
Now I can't even drive my wife and child home.
So thank you.
Look what you've done to my baby, prick.
-Look. -Well, I gotta dash, mate.
We'll talk later, yeah? Still on for climbing Friday?
-Yeah, of course.
Lola?
Yeah. Could you get someone from the office to pick me up please?
-Let's go! -Yeah, anybody who's free.
Yes, they banned me for three years.
Ssh!
Tasha? Jen's here.
Oh God.
Look! Look!
It'd Daddy's ex-wife... Again.
Who's afraid of the big, bad wolf?
The big bad...
-Hey. -You smell fabulous.
Wait, did I buy you that?
Probably.
I brought your favorite.
Oh, I haven't had this in ages.
This is fancy. Thank you.
-Thank you so much. -I knew you'd love it.
You love your reds.
Hi. How's it going?
Hi. How are you?
Oh, you poor thing.
A three-year driving ban?
God, that's outrageous.
And Tasha can't drive either, can she?
Oh, I can drive.
I just, I don't have a license.
Wait, Jack, how are you gonna get to the christening?
-We'll just get the train.
The train on a Sunday?
Jack hates the train.
Plus the station is nowhere near the church.
Well, I guess we'll have to rethink going then.
Or Jack, maybe you can go and I'll just stay behind here with Emily.
No, no.
Then Jack's mum and dad will miss out.
God, they'll be heartbroken if they don't get a squeeze.
Listen, why don't I just drive us all?
I mean, I've certainly got the space.
Problem solved.
You know the church we're going to is where I was christened?
-Seriously? -Yeah.
Do you think they still remember you?
It was such a long time ago.
Hey, we're practically the same age.
Oh, this is gonna be so fun.
And I have the perfect playlist.
Oh God. Brace yourselves.
You remember this song, right?
-Oh shit! -Yes!
-Do you remember when we were in that beach bar in Mykonos?
-This is all they played. -Yes.
They only had one CD, I'm sure of it.
Of course I remember.
And the waitress who kept dropping our drinks.
Oh yeah!
And you wondered why I didn't tip her.
Oh, she was so sweet.
Absolutely ruined your shirt though. Remember?
Listen, you know how my dad loves a little dance.
-Yes. -He will probably wanna...
Hello?
Any news?
Sam, the interview was last week.
They're not gonna give me a full-time position that quickly.
Why?
'Cause it is a proper job with proper grownups
and proper grownup money.
-Okay.
I mean, I'm no employment guru,
but I'd say probably don't tell people at the coffee shop
you think it's a fake job?
Or you'll end up like me, gaming in your boxers.
Yeah. You're living your best life though, right?
Continue. See you tonight.
Yes. Okay. Yeah.
All right, later.
You okay?
Can you hear me?
Call an ambulance.
Oh, no, I'm okay. I'm fine.
-Actually, I've gotta get to work. -No, no.
I don't think you should move. You might have a back injury.
No, I'm pretty sure I don't.
I'm so sorry. I didn't see.
You popped out nowhere and...
Yeah. Alright. Alright.
If you can move, we should probably get you off the road.
-Yep. -Come on.
Here, let me help. Let me help you up.
Thank you.
You all right? Can you walk?
Yeah.
Can you walk?
-Do you want an arm? -No.
Fuck's sake.
-Here. -Thanks.
You don't have the time, do you?
10:17.
-Why? Work? -Yeah.
Well, I can call them and explain everything.
Okay. Yeah, actually that'd be really good, thank you.
-Okay. -Fuck...
Sorry. Do you mind just...
Oh, yeah. Okay.
Ah, fuck!
Ah.
Do I have to get this checked out or...
-No, it just needs cleaning, that's all.
Listen, I live 15 minutes that way.
So if you like, I'm happy to...
I'll get you fixed up. I'll put that in the boot.
I'll get that fixed up.
I'll throw in a cup of tea and a taxi home if you like.
-Okay. Okay. Yeah. -Sure?
-Thank you. Yeah.
kay. Come on in.
I think I've got a first-aid kit...
somewhere.
Not bad.
Thank you.
Here. I'll leave this here for you.
-Tea? -Yeah, please.
You all right there?
Here.
All right?
Milk?
Yes, please.
That's the fridge.
Sorry.
So listen. I'm happy to pay for your bike to get repaired.
Or if you prefer, I can just give you cash.
You could get a new one.
Is 400 quid...
I dunno how much they cost.
What about my smashed phone?
Cost like a grand.
Did it?
No, not really.
It's refurbished.
800 will cover everything.
That'll do.
Here.
No, come on.
We start with this.
Here we go.
It's gonna sting.
Doesn't sting?
Is that your wife?
Yep. That's Jen.
She's very young.
We both were.
Here, swap.
Hello?
How are the war wounds?
Hey.
Yeah, they're healing up nicely. Thanks.
Good, good.
Listen, I've got a meeting in town, but I should be done by about 6:00.
So if you're free, we could get an early dinner maybe.
As a thank you. Or a sorry.
I've gotta check on that arm, haven't I?
Okay.
This is just a sorry, right?
Of course.
So graphic design... I know what it is, but what is it?
It's an umbrella term, really.
But personally I'm into pictographs or pictograms.
And so now pretend that I have absolutely no idea
what you're talking about.
They're images that we all agree on.
Like road signs or... labels or... warnings.
Their meaning has to be crystal clear,
unambiguous, purely functional.
And, right. And you like that?
What? Functionality?
Lack of ambiguity.
Yeah. I do.
Noted.
Here we are.
And yours. Enjoy.
You can ask about her. It's fine.
What does she do?
Interior design.
It's like hotels and restaurants.
Couple of bars.
She loves it.
She's very good, she's pretty sought after.
Well, that explains why your house is so beautiful.
No kids?
No, no. No kids.
Okay. There was a bit of a problem there.
And IVF didn't, wasn't working, so...
She can't.
-Oh, she can't. -No.
I'm sorry. Is this too much?
No, no, no, no. Of course not.
I just, I don't really wanna bombard you with all of this stuff.
It's not your problem, it's, my marriage is...
We've been together a really long time and we've been through a lot.
And I wanted to make her happy.
I tried to make her happy, but...
life doesn't always work out that way, you know?
You can't force someone to be happy if fundamentally they're...
It's okay for you to want to be happy, Jack.
Jen's agreed to a trial separation.
It's nothing big now, it's just separate rooms.
So we can think about what we actually want.
And you can see other people?
If that's what I want.
Is it something you might want?
Is it something you want?
That was three months ago.
I'm sorry I didn't tell you.
And you did the test yesterday?
It estimates about seven weeks.
I did the entire pack.
Well, that's two months ago.
So when we...
-You and him... -It's not yours, Sam.
-Please don't do this right now. -Okay.
So what are you gonna do about it?
I'm pregnant with a married man's child.
What do you think I'm gonna do?
-Have you told him yet?
Are you certain?
Yes, but it's fine.
I've already called a clinic.
Obviously I'm getting rid of it.
Tasha, come here, come here.
Okay. Talk to me properly.
Really properly.
It's fine.
I'll be fine.
-It takes less than an hour. -Shut up now.
Shut up.
This is amazing.
This is perfect.
This is so amazing.
It's perfect.
Really?
Yes, of course...
I mean, what the fuck?
May the Almighty God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Who hath regenerated thee by water and the Holy Spirit.
And now, I baptize you in the name of the Father + and of the Son,
+ and of the Holy + Spirit.
-Amen. -Amen.
Peace be with you.
-Dad. Cin cin. -Thank you.
Oh my goodness. I think you should take him upstairs.
-Hey. -Oh, hi.
-Thank you. -Oh, that one's for me, actually.
You can have mine. There you go.
Oh, sorry. I didn't realize.
-Anyone else? Top ups? -Oh, yes, please.
Me, Jackie.
Thank you.
-There you go. -Oh, I'm drinking like a fish.
Guys. Picture please.
Come here.
Ready?
-Perfectly timed. -Huh?
Oh...
h, darling. Oh, it's okay.
It's me.
Gorgeous.
-Oh, let me have a look. -I knew you'd wanna have a look.
See?
-Oh, look at her! -Love these, by the way.
Thank you.
I know. I know.
Are you having an... okay time?
I'm having a great time.
Jen's wandering around like she's still your wife.
Hayley's been ignoring me since I got here.
Oh, and your parents haven't even said hello yet.
It's not deliberate.
There are... hello.
...very spooky old people they've not seen for years.
Pretty sure they all think I'm the nanny.
They don't.
You know she did this deliberately, don't you?
The godparent thing.
She's trying to make a point. I'm not welcome.
She is not trying to make a point.
Look, come on, you know they've been best friends since preschool.
-So... -Not that long then.
How much of this have you had?
Not enough, clearly.
If you're gonna have a domestic, do it somewhere private, please?
We're not having a domestic, you witty old cow.
Oh, here we go.
He's fine.
I think it's just difficult having...
You know?
Having both me and Jen here.
Well, it's just a party, Natasha.
Jen seems okay with things.
If anything, she should be the one with the issue.
-I know.
But maybe for the next big family thing,
it's better if only one of us comes.
It's just a little bit...
Yeah.
Yeah. Maybe next time it would be better if you didn't come.
Oh fuck off.
Classy.
You know, we all know what you did to get here.
To get that ring. That house.
Jack and Jen tried for years to have kids.
He couldn't.
His chances were incredibly low.
And then you, conveniently, show up pregnant.
You might have got everything you wanted,
but you don't get to choose my friends.
-Everything all right? -Yeah. Fine.
Okay. What happened?
This needs to stop.
No more Jen coming to the house.
It's weird for me and for Emily.
-Okay. -Okay?
Of course. I'll speak to her in the morning.
But I'll let them have today.
Should we get pissed?
-Mm-hm. -Mm-hm.
Hayley said something today.
Oh God.
Whatever it was, it was probably just Hayley being Hayley.
You'll learn to ignore it.
I do.
About you and Jen.
She said it was you not Jen who had fertility problems.
You said it was Jen when you were trying for kids.
Okay.
Well, yeah, she's right.
Plenty of swimmers. Just not the best athletes.
So hard, but not impossible.
We could have kept going, but she wanted to stop.
So we stopped.
Why didn't you tell me?
Why do you think?
You're a lot younger than I am.
And I'm a big, stupid bloke.
I quite liked you.
I quite liked you too.
Yeah, I know.
Hey, do you know where I can find pumpkin seeds?
Yeah. Come. I show you.
Thank you.
Hey.
Oh, hey.
Natasha.
You shop here?
Yeah. It's the closest one to the house so...
-Ae you local? -Ish.
Bit of a creature of habit.
It's a bit of a drive, but I do like it here.
Speaking of which,
thank you very much for driving us to the christening.
Hello, beautiful.
Are you helping Mummy? Yeah.
Oh, those things are great, aren't they?
I've got friends that swear by them.
Who has the time to make things fresh anymore?
Oh, I think...
-Oh. -Do you still want them?
Yes, I do.
It's all right. I'll watch her.
Hello, darling. Yeah.
What's in my basket?
Sorry.
Here.
-Thank you. -You're welcome.
-Thanks.
Hey, hey!
Have you seen a woman? Brunette but older.
And I left my baby with her.
-You left your baby? -No. No, she has my baby.
She's taking care of my baby. I...
-Natasha.
-verything okay? -Hey. Hey.
Oh gosh.
I just went to get some bread from another aisle.
I didn't mean to...
Okay. You know what, we'll just call this a misunderstanding.
But Jen, in future, when you are looking after other people's kids,
you don't just play it by ear.
Right, I'll certainly bear that in mind.
Hey.
Oh yeah.
What else have we got? A frog.
Daddy loves frogs. Daddy loves frogs.
Look at the time.
You keep reading.
Baby.
Don't worry. Don't worry. Come on, come on through.
She's through here. Tasha, you've got a visitor.
Surprise!
Oh my God.
-Jack, Sam. Sam, Jack. -Yes.
-Yeah. Yeah. We met at the door. -Yeah. Good to meet you.
-Jack. -Finally.
Yeah, you too.
Just like sealed.
And throwing krill.
You that's what you... That? Throwing krill...
-That's nothing to do with me. -Instead of having...
-That's nothing to do with me. -It's nice to meet you.
Right. I'm gonna go and grab a quick sauna
-and leave you two to just catch up. -Yeah, yeah.
Listen, don't let me get in the way. Seriously.
Thank you for your hospitality.
No, no, no. It's no worries.
There's wine in the fridge if you want.
Did he say say sauna?
-I wanted to surprise you. -Oh, right.
Well, I'm here now.
You said you were lonely.
If I'd asked you, you would've put me off.
Sam, he's not an idiot.
He knows you don't like him.
You didn't come to the wedding.
Wait, what?
He's not an idiot?
Stop it.
Oh, come on. He doesn't care.
I'm here now. Can't hate him that much.
Yeah, but you could have texted.
It's the middle of the night. A bloke coming to see me.
Okay. It's not the middle of the night, Mum.
You need to get out more.
And plus, have you seen his face? That beard?
He doesn't care about the competition.
Hey, at least your ex-husband isn't showing up. Right?
-All right. That's it. -Too far? Was that too far?
-You're out. You're out. -Okay. I'll go.
I'll go.
Seriously though, what's it like being rich?
I'm not rich.
Sure. Okay, Drake.
Do you wanna show me the rest of the house or...
Where's your priceless collection of Birkin bags?
-Upstairs. -Don't joke.
-You being serious? -Yeah. I'm dead serious.
They're so expensive.
Still doesn't like me, does he?
Sam?
At least he's honest.
How'd things go with him.
Are you patching things up?
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Kind of.
You know, it's really nice to see an old face.
The NCT girls are great, but you know, they're mum friends.
And he doesn't hate you.
He's just protective, like an older brother.
Or a judgmental aunt.
Yeah. I see it. I see it.
Listen, I know it's not ideal,
but they need me to go to New York next week.
Just Thursday to Sunday.
So I was thinking I could get you and Emily a ticket
if you don't want to stay here on your own.
I mean, obviously I'll be busy but we'll have the nights
and you two can explore the city in the day.
-I don't know that it's a good idea
taking her on a long-haul flight just yet.
Because I wanna get her into a proper routine
in case we start nursery soon.
Wow. Yeah, no, you're right.
Don't wanna throw her off her sleep.
Oh, you don't mind me going though, do you?
Uh-uh.
Listen, I spoke to Jen after the christening
and I explained everything.
And she won't be coming around anymore.
Thanks for this, Sam. I appreciate it.
-It's all right. -Oh.
Oh. Oh.
Oh, she wants her rabbit.
Damn. Rabbit is upstairs.
-I will just... -No, no, no.
I'll get her. Him. Where is he?
-In her room. -In her room. Right. Cool.
-Got it. -Yeah.
Oh.
Sorry. Right under the bed.
Always under the bed.
You got your rabbit now. Are you happy?
Watch this.
Oh, mate. What are you?
Some mastermind villain?
Wish I had a garage.
What, so he goes away a lot, yeah?
Does that bother you?
Yeah, obviously.
I miss him.
It was much worse straight after she was born.
Yeah.
What does he actually do?
-He's a media executive. -No. Yeah. I know that.
You told me that.
What does he actually do?
Ah, very funny.
Not sure I was trying to be.
Do you guys ever talk about what you wanna do?
You know, jobs? Applying for things?
-Not yet. -Why?
Why? Does he not know it's important to you?
No, Sam, it's not him. It's me.
I just...
I don't know.
I don't want to leave here just yet.
It doesn't feel right.
All right. Fair enough.
Jack?

And what is your emergency?
You're good.
You know, he's not even here.
Yes. I know. New York.
I just spoke to him.
I couldn't find some documents in my flat.
So I assumed that they must be here.
And ta-da, here they are
Jack told me to let myself in if you weren't home.
I've had a real morning of it with my accountant.
Lovely HMRC are saying that I owe thousands in tax,
which I obviously don't have so...
Jen.
You could have called. I thought we'd been burgled.
I didn't know you had a friend with a car.
I heard you outside.
It's funny, Jack didn't mention him.

It's a shame Sam's gone.
Could've given me a ride home.
He's pretty easy on the eyes. I wouldn't be surprised.
-How do you know Sam's name? -What?
Jack must have brought him up after the christening.
You know when we had that talk.
One about giving you space? I'm assuming that was your idea.
He wasn't around then.
-What? -Sam wasn't around
when Jack spoke to you after the christening.
Have you two been speaking since then?
-No.
No.
Perhaps I bumped into him outside or...
Are you following me?
In the supermarket, you just happened to be there?
Excuse me?
I think I'm gonna leave.
I think you should, and I'm gonna need those keys back now.
Fine. Here.
You need to stop all of this, Jen.
Seriously. You need to leave us alone.
Oh, you have no idea what you're talking about.
You know, when you talk to Jack, tell him I can't do this anymore.
It's all gone on for too long.
What has?
All of this.
She said what?
Why didn't you call me as soon as it happened?
-Sh!
Because you were working and I was dealing with it.
I changed the locks, the alarm, everything.
What did she mean?
I don't know.
I haven't seen her since the christening, you know that.
But she said you'd just spoken.
You told her to come by the house and get her things.
Well, yeah, I spoke to her briefly on the phone.
And yes, I told her to come over.
She said it was urgent.
I expected her to knock on the door,
like a normal fucking human being.
But she said that you gave her a key for emergencies.
Something about money problems or unpaid tax.
She told you about that.
Wow. Right.
Well, yeah, she's really worried, this tax thing's gonna hit her hard.
I don't care, Jack.
She was in my house, drunk.
She showed up at our supermarket the other week.
She lives fucking miles away.
Now she's saying that she knows Sam or at least recognizes him.
So either she's hanging around here, staking the place out,
or you're lying to me about talking to her.
I'm sorry?
Well, tell me I'm imagining things.
Have you spoken to her or been to see her since your chat?
No.
And no.
Now listen, I don't know what she's playing at,
but whatever it is, it has to stop. Okay?
But if she says she knows Sam, that's nothing to do with me.
You're gonna have to talk to him.
Fuck!
Right. I'm gonna talk to her again.
And I'm gonna be clearer.
Because maybe the way we've been...
the way I've been has given her the wrong impression.
But if she's come around expecting anything,
it just has to stop.
It has to.
And if it doesn't, then...
we'll have to address it more seriously.
Call the police?
If you don't feel safe.
[tap runs
-Is that my car? -Yeah.
-All right. 30 seconds.
Okay. Okay. Okay.
Let's do this.
It's gonna be a bit of a late one today.
Probably 10:00 or 11:00, something like that.
Okay. See you then.
Papa!Papa!
I'm trying to think. Is there anything else?
We've covered everything. Yeah.
-You've got my number. -I do. I'll call.
-So, I mean, any problem, big or small.
Thank you for coming at such late notice.
Oh. No worries.
I've got her. You go be with your mom.
I hope she feels better soon.
Yeah.
-Thank you. -You're welcome.
Bye.
Maybe just stop here.
-All right, love. -Thanks.
Thanks.
...the time we were in Venice.
If that's food, I'm gonna plate up and then...
