Can you go and get Brian? You're needed outside.
Now.
Are you the governor? Dominique Darby.
I understand you are Laura's brother.
I was.
Lee.
Lee, I am so sorry for your loss.
Did you even know her? What was it, then? Was it staff cuts or profit margins? Was it just the old case of who gives a fuck about that lot anyway?! Because they are better off dead, most of them, aren't they? You couldn't be further from the truth.
Oh? What's that? "Building Hope, changing lives.
" Lee, what happened to your sister is a terrible thing.
Yeah.
She was vulnerable.
But who was watching her, keeping her safe? You lot had the duty of care for my sister .
.
and you failed her.
You failed her and you let her die.
We did the best that we could, I can assure you of that.
Well, your best just wasn't good enough, was it? Was it?! Have you got a sister or a brother or .
.
anyone? A sister.
I had a sister.
Had? She died.
Oh, right.
I suppose you were responsible for her and all, then, yeah? Come on, now, mate.
That's not going to help.
Lee, I am sorry about Laura .
.
but when an inmate is intent on ending their life, it's not always possible to stop them.
She wasn't intent on taking her life.
She was looking forward to getting out of that place.
She was going to come and work with me.
This place made her worse.
She should never have even been in there! You You killed my sister.
OK, Lee.
You've said your piece.
My piece?! My piece? This isn't I'm going to have to escort you off the premises, sir.
I'm barely on the premises! I'll tell you what, get back in your little boxes, yeah? You've not seen the last of me.
Oi.
Have you two ever broken a sweat in here? Well? It's a gym, not a coffee shop.
Use it properly or get the fuck out.
Say that again.
All right, ladies.
It's been a heavy few days for everyone, yeah? All right, what's the matter with you, then? Nothing.
Just tell me.
She's thinking about saying yeah.
What, to the visitors request? I'm just thinking about it, all right? Well, that's good, then.
Is it? Because I don't want to see her get hurt.
No, of course not.
The girl's mother is a bit heavy, but sometimes you've got to feel the pain to heal the pain.
Ah, right, that's why you haven't let your Jake come and see you since you fucked up your parole.
Hey.
She didn't mean that.
No, I know she didn't.
And she's right.
So are you.
Oi! Sporty Spice.
No druggies in my gym, yeah? Come on.
All right, love, let's get you up.
Come on, girl.
One, two, three, up we go.
Ah, that's rank, girl.
Right, dump her in the shower block, right? Fuck sake.
No, that is completely unsubstantiated.
Where are you getting this from? We have nothing further to say.
Everything all right, Mrs Kovac? Vultures.
Who? The press.
What do you want? Eh? Oh.
Can anyone here sign? Sign what? Sign language, for the deaf girl.
New inmate in McEwan.

Why? I'm leaving in a few days.
Well, the legal system can be slow.
Things can change.
What? What's changed? What you talking about? I'm sorry, Chloe, but your case has been delayed.
What? As I said, the legal system.
Why? I don't get that.
My solicitor says it's next week, I've got a court date.

More for show than anything.
Jesus Christ.
Why don't I know this? Why haven't you asked? KNOCK AT DOOR Chloe Anderson had her baby in the early hours of this morning.
She's in the hospital.

Oh, yeah? LINE RINGS Hello.

Hi.
What's going on? Chloe, as you'll be aware, there is a family board to make a decision on what's best for babies' wellbeing.
No, no, I wasn't aware.
Well, they've had to make a fast track decision this morning.
What does that mean? What's going on? Chloe, you've been assessed as being unsuitable to take care of the baby at this stage.
What? I'm afraid the ruling was for an emergency protection order.
That means that the baby will be going to a foster family.
No! No.
You are not taking her.
No.
We're going to stay in the mother and baby unit.
Governor Darby said.
Ask her.
Can I see paperwork, please? I'm sorry, Chloe, but this decision, it can't be made by a prison governor.
Just call her.
I'm so sorry, Chloe.
No No, you can't take her.
She needs me.
I'm her mother.
We'll let you have another hour with her, to say goodbye, but then we will have to take her.
No.
Chloe I said no! Get out.
Leave us alone.
You said she had another hour, so let her have it.
But we've got room in MBU.

Yeah, of course.
Take a seat.
How's Chloe and the baby? Mother and baby are doing well.
She's called her Laura.
Wow.
Can we see them before they go to the MBU? There's a dozen godparents back there that want to say hello.
They're still at the hospital for now - but I promise I'll let you all know.
Thanks.
Laura.
It's perfect.
That's not what this is about, is it? Go on.
I'm ready to meet her.

TV BLARES What have I told you? Even my bleeding mother doesn't have it this loud! Oh, fuck off.

Shit.
Should I deal with it? No, I'll speak to him.
Can you go and get Brian? You're needed outside.
Now.
Are you the governor? Dominique Darby.
I understand you are Laura's brother.
I was.
Lee.
Lee, I am so sorry for your loss.
Did you even know her? What was it, then? Was it staff cuts or profit margins? Was it just the old case of who gives a fuck about that lot anyway?! Because they are better off dead, most of them, aren't they? You couldn't be further from the truth.
Oh? What's that? "Building Hope, changing lives.
" Lee, what happened to your sister is a terrible thing.
Yeah.
She was vulnerable.
But who was watching her, keeping her safe? You lot had the duty of care for my sister .
.
and you failed her.
You failed her and you let her die.
We did the best that we could, I can assure you of that.
Well, your best just wasn't good enough, was it? Was it?! Have you got a sister or a brother or .
.
anyone? A sister.
I had a sister.
Had? She died.
Oh, right.
I suppose you were responsible for her and all, then, yeah? Come on, now, mate.
That's not going to help.
Lee, I am sorry about Laura .
.
but when an inmate is intent on ending their life, it's not always possible to stop them.
She wasn't intent on taking her life.
She was looking forward to getting out of that place.
She was going to come and work with me.
This place made her worse.
She should never have even been in there! You You killed my sister.
OK, Lee.
You've said your piece.
My piece?! My piece? This isn't I'm going to have to escort you off the premises, sir.
I'm barely on the premises! I'll tell you what, get back in your little boxes, yeah? You've not seen the last of me.
Oi.
Have you two ever broken a sweat in here? Well? It's a gym, not a coffee shop.
Use it properly or get the fuck out.
Say that again.
All right, ladies.
It's been a heavy few days for everyone, yeah? All right, what's the matter with you, then? Nothing.
Just tell me.
She's thinking about saying yeah.
What, to the visitors request? I'm just thinking about it, all right? Well, that's good, then.
Is it? Because I don't want to see her get hurt.
No, of course not.
The girl's mother is a bit heavy, but sometimes you've got to feel the pain to heal the pain.
Ah, right, that's why you haven't let your Jake come and see you since you fucked up your parole.
Hey.
She didn't mean that.
No, I know she didn't.
And she's right.
So are you.
Oi! Sporty Spice.

Why? I'm leaving in a few days.
Well, the legal system can be slow.
Things can change.
What? What's changed? What you talking about? I'm sorry, Chloe, but your case has been delayed.
What? As I said, the legal system.
Why? I don't get that.
My solicitor says it's next week, I've got a court date.
I'm sorry, Chloe.
When, then? How many weeks? It could be months.
No.
Look, your case has become part of a bigger case.
You will receive a letter from your solicitor.
No, you can't do this.
You can't keep us in here.
I know this isn't what you wanted I'm not having my baby in prison.

My name is BLEEP, and this is my crib.

Until then, peace out.
Officer Trent, I'm trusting you to solve this - but be discreet.
It's had 3,896 views.

More for show than anything.
Jesus Christ.
Why don't I know this? Why haven't you asked? KNOCK AT DOOR Chloe Anderson had her baby in the early hours of this morning.
She's in the hospital.
What? So, do we have a short list of suspects? Or maybe that should be a long list.

Oh, yeah? LINE RINGS Hello.
Can I have the number for the hospital? Maternity ward, please.
Excuse me.
Here, that's my baby Zeus.

Oh, I'm sorry, Zeus.
Do you think this is too tight? No, it looks fine.
Not that I'm an authority on the matter - mine shits in the street.
I bet you still love him, anyway.
Yeah, proper soppy around him.

Social services.
Leticia May.
Hi.
What's going on? Chloe, as you'll be aware, there is a family board to make a decision on what's best for babies' wellbeing.
No, no, I wasn't aware.
Well, they've had to make a fast track decision this morning.
What does that mean? What's going on? Chloe, you've been assessed as being unsuitable to take care of the baby at this stage.
What? I'm afraid the ruling was for an emergency protection order.
That means that the baby will be going to a foster family.
No! No.
You are not taking her.
No.
We're going to stay in the mother and baby unit.
Governor Darby said.
Ask her.
Can I see paperwork, please? I'm sorry, Chloe, but this decision, it can't be made by a prison governor.
Just call her.
I'm so sorry, Chloe.
No No, you can't take her.
She needs me.
I'm her mother.
We'll let you have another hour with her, to say goodbye, but then we will have to take her.
No.
Chloe I said no! Get out.
Leave us alone.
You said she had another hour, so let her have it.
But we've got room in MBU.

Yeah, of course.
Take a seat.
How's Chloe and the baby? Mother and baby are doing well.
She's called her Laura.
Wow.
Can we see them before they go to the MBU? There's a dozen godparents back there that want to say hello.
They're still at the hospital for now - but I promise I'll let you all know.
Thanks.
Laura.
It's perfect.
That's not what this is about, is it? Go on.
I'm ready to meet her.
