Yes.

I was never with you when I was with her.

Oh, well, that's fine then.

You knew. Didn't you? Lou...

I'm on your side. How long? How long did you know, Mum?

This ain't her fault. And you didn't think to tell me?

Did Mel know?

I just didn't want you to get hurt. Oh, well, that went well.

I thought if Phil finds out...

Well, he's not going to touch me, is he, Mum? I've done nothing wrong!

But if he comes after Keanu... Get out of my face, Mum! Go!

I want to talk to my fiance.

Alone.

DOOR CLOSES I swear...

..it all started before... Stop.

Did you make her lie?

You let other people say that my mum - my vulnerable mum -

was crazy? I'm so sorry. She wasn't meant to find out.

So... So hang on.

So Sharon's been pregnant since before we got together?

What is she, an elephant?

Earlier this year.

One night. You'd finished with me...

Didn't waste much time. I thought you aborted our baby, Lou!

Yeah, and I thought that you were with me cos my dad was paying you!

And Sharon was just there?

It wasn't like that.

SHE CRIES

What do you even see in her?

What do you see in her that you don't see in me?

I know she hasn't got scars... No, no, no. You are beautiful.

So, what is it? Old dog, old tricks, yeah?

I was wanting to tell you. I kept trying to tell you.

And what? The words had too many syllables?! Getting with Sharon -

back with Sharon - it is the biggest mistake of my life.

If I can change what I have done, I would, but I can't.

I will never hurt you again.

She just needed changing.

I am so, so sorry.

TEARFULLY: I know.

You and me and Peggy...

..that's all that matters.

I love you, Lou. You're the only one I want.

Well, if that was true, you'd have told me.

I wanted to.

Even once we had Peggy...

It's not that simple, though, is it? Your mum is right.

If your dad finds out, he will kill me.

Whatever I've done...

..I'm Peggy's dad.

We can run away.

Where he can't find us.

Start again.

I want to be your husband.

When you told me you was keeping our baby,

I promised I would always be there for you and I will.

For as long as I can.

Nothing else matters to me, only you and Peggy.

I took a bullet for you and I would do that again.

Let's do it.

Let's go.

Anything we've forgotten,

your mum can send on to us once we're all settled.

I'm going to make it up to you, every bit,

but now your dad's got the scent... Go and get Peggy.

This is not the Christmas that I planned.

You're the father of my child.

I'm not having anything happen to you.

We need to leave.

We'll just go in and get Mitch's keys.

No, your mum'll make us sit down and...

What?

It's your dad.

He's coming.

He knows. Go out the back. I'm not leaving without you.

You know what he's like. Get back from the window.

Looks like he's just going for that drink.

If he knows, he'll be watching your mum's.

Right, so we just get a car from the Arches.

You ready?

Try the van.

PHONE CHIMES

I'm ringing a taxi.

You beauty.

Going to be OK with the seat belt?

You having...second thoughts?

Not at all.

I told you, Louise. I am so sorry.

You were right.

My dad will kill you.

Never, ever take a Mitchell for a fool.
