You make me feel how I used to feel.
I'm justso angry.
I've been seeing things.
You know who they are, don't you?
The Moirai.
They're your connection
..to all the mysteries of your
future.
It's, like, how do you let
yourself trust someone?
How do you know?
It's scary,
but I think you do know.
If you wanted your first
time to be on this holiday,
tonight would be a good
time to do it.
WHISPERS: I'll take care
of your dad for you.
I want to be happy and I don't want
to be married to you.
You can't just do that to Dan.
You need to stop!
Take a minute and think about what
you're doing.

CHILDREN CHATTER LOUDLY
GIRL SHRIEKS
Oh, God! No. Too loud.
Take it outside, please.
Come on.
I don't feel well.
There's no water in any of my cells.
When I first woke up, I felt
all right, but now I feel rough.
Hmm, false dawn.
Oh, God, total false dawn.
Now I don't have a nanny.
I'm not giving her a reference.
She'll never work with kids again.
I don't think she'll mind that,
do you?
Are either of you online?
What are you trying to do?
Online banking.
Why are you online banking now?
Do you know how to
..retrieve a fund once you've
done a transfer?
I don't think you can.
Have you been scammed?
I don't think so.
DOOR OPENS
Looks like I missed quite
a party! Did you all
Did you all misbehave?
Well, you had fun, didn't you?
Four times as much fun

Eurgh!
SHE GIGGLES
How are you, Dan?
Er, yeah. Well, I didn't, erm

Oh, you probably don't want to have
this conversation
in front of everyone.
What conversation?
About you and Zoe.
She said you guys have broken up.
SOLOMON: There are no boats.
How can there be no boats?
I don't know.
There just aren't.
What about the recall?
Oh, they've decided to

once we've done it.
I can do the bin?
Oh, yes!
Thank you so much.

What?
Disgrace.
Oh, sorry. Did I put the bottles
in the wrong bin?
I saw them.
On the chapel this morning.
What are you talking about?
I saw them together on the altar!
Sorry youyou saw people doing

That's Yeah, that's not nice.
Who was it?
You people have no shame.
One of us?!
Yes. No.
May the Lord forgive her.
Who?! This is not for me to say.
No, no, I think there's been
a misunderstanding.
No! No! No! I saw her,
she was with that boy, Jon!
I saw him! You mean
Avery'sfriend?
Are you implying that
my daughter
Because that's just not on!
There was a party, at another house,
loads of people.
It really, really could have
been anyone.
THEY LAUGH
What? No, it wasn't me!
Oh, come on! In a chapel?
I was with Yiannis,
it did not get physical.
I wouldn't do that with Avery's
boyfriend! That's sick!
She's obviously made a mistake.
DOOR CLOSES
HE SNIGGERS
So annoying.
What was that? I mean, who does
she think she is, coming in here,
trying to shame us.
She's the cleaner!
Are you upset?
I'm getting changed.
So, do you think, they're still
going to see you for the part?
I'm not sure.
What did you say to her last night?
I just
To really value herself,
not to rush anything.
But when she's ready,
to make sure she feels empowered.
So you encouraged her?
You said she was at home.
I THINK she was home.
I didn't actually go into her room.
Lisa's going to kill me for this.
We don't actually know it was Avery.
Hey, and if it was, she is 16.
I was having sex at 16.
I'm not sure I want
her following your lead.
Hey. You coming?
I'm sure it's the last thing
you want to do today.
Oh, well
No, I'd like to.
I like archaeology.
Right.
Yeah.
I'm just really tired.
Oh.
Dad?
Give me a minute, OK?
Go and put your sandals on.
What time did you get in?
I can't remember.
Not too late though.
Before me, I think?
Sure, yeah, maybe. Dad?
I mean, you Listen, you do
whatever you want to.

Really? Mm.
Oh! Great. Yeah.
Erm
Any problems, just call me? Yeah.
HE HUFFS
OK? Ready? Ready for an
adventure? OK. No.

That's for the middle seat.
No, it's this one. That one.
UmOK. Move your legs
Just move.
Er, right. OK?
Zoe, last night
..did you tell everyone
that we're breaking up?
Did you?
Yes.
Why, why would you do that?
We, we haven't even had a chance
to talk about it. Excuse me.
Oh, you're coming with us?
Oh, it's hot in here!
Can we drop Will off at the harbour
en route?
Sure.
Hey, guys.
Who wants to go on a fun detour?
CHILDREN: Me!
I don't understand what happened. I
thought we were having a good time.
It was great.
Yeah, I really enjoyed it.
Thank you.
So, why are you doing this?
I'm not. Well, you are. You said you
didn't want to do this any more.
I think
..sometimes it's like
maybe something
just isn't quite right,
you know?
WILL SCOFFS
Sorry. No. That's
..OK.
Thanks for being Yeah.
Don't.
Was there anything else you need?
Thanks.
Thank you.
Sorry about your audition.
Thanks.
What was I thinking?
They look like they're on
a school trip.
He looks older
when he's not with them.
Forget about him.
Kids that age are all
about themselves.
Keep them closed. Keep them closed.
Eyes closed.
Where are we?
OK. Open!
What's this?
This is my house!
How do you mean?
It's my house. You're buying it?
Uh, well, I came to view it last
night with Yiannis,
that waiter guy. Yeah.
You know when they say you
just know?
Yeah. I just knew.
It was pretty dark inside
and I was quite drunk.
But I could feel there was something
special about this house.
Such beautiful proportions!
Look at the old purple stone
and all the authentic details.
You can really feel how grand
it used to be.
Yeah.
Yeah. Like, yeah.
Like, a long time ago, but
Is this all yours?
Just the purple bit, I think.
Oh. I'm never going to get
on the property ladder in London,
especially now that
I've lost my job,
and I have, well,
HAD all these savings.
So this is a holiday house?
Yeah.
Kind of like a holiday house,
I guess?
Yeah.
COCKEREL CROWS
Very loud cockerel next door.
I quite like him. Hmm.
Just make sure you do your research
before you commit to anything.
Yeah, get three quotes from three
different builders to make
sure you know how much this is going
to cost to renovate. Cost.
Yeah. Obviously, I'm going to get
three quotes.
Look, you just don't want to get
a week in
and find out that there's no, like,
plumbing. Plumbing, exactly.
Yeah.
There's definitely plumbing.
COCKEREL CROWS
Let's go to the temple.
Yeah. Woo! Let's go!
Guys, come on.
Put that down now!
What's he doing?
Come on!
HORN HONKS
Oh, God!
Hello.
Hey. Hi.
Erm, the road up there is not
good for your car.
We're trying to get up to
the temple.
Oh, you want to go to the temple?
There's a better way.
The sat-nav say it's
just up here.
Your car will get damaged.
We, we don't have to go.
We're literally five minutes away.
Please, it's really not safe.
You shouldn't damage your hire car.
That girl will charge you.
Fine.
I'll help you back up.
Oh, my

More left.
Don't be shy! Come on.
Turn harder, harder, harder
OK. All right. I'm turning.
Yeah, that's it. Take it easy.
Jesus! It's all right.
Yeah, go back.
It's all right, it's all right,
he's just trying to help.
Turn harder, turn harder.
Now you have space.
Come on, more.
Go, go, yeah.
Argh! Oh, my God!
Fuck.
Where is he?!
He's there. Oh, my God.
No, no, no, no, no, no.

Yeah, it was an accident. Exactly.
Oh, careful. Oh

You all right? Yeah, yeah.
I'm all right.
Well done. Yeah, OK.

ZOE GASPS
Oh, my God! Oh, God! Oh, shit.
What? What have we done? Shit! Huh?
Shit. You
Oh. Oh!
Oh, whoa, whoa.
Jacob!
What are you doing?!
I was going to get help! Mate.
We need to get him to a hospital!
No, no, no hospital.
I need to go to work.
Your head looks quite
Yeah, looks quite bad, actually.
Listen, listen, it's really
it's really busy at the taverna,
there's a lot of things going on.
I could lose my job.
I need to go to work.
Is there a hospital on the island?
I don't know. Erm
I mean, he says he's all right.
Whoa.
Ah
Yeah. No, we should get that
checked out.
Yeah, I think probably.
Do you want to come and just
sit down here? Yeah?
Shit! Do you want some water?
I'm good.
OK, I'm just going to
Uh I'm just going to
bandage your head.
OK? Hmm.
Right. Let's get this
Did you make this happen?
Huh? Because if you wanted to see me
again, you could have just asked.
You know?
Oh, God, sorry! Sorry, sorry!
It's OK.
I'm OK. I'm OK. I'm OK. Let me just
tuck this Zoe.
Yeah, just Can we Yeah.
Argh Oh, I'm sorry.
OK, look at me.
Yeah.
Zoe, can I
Yeah? The nearest hospital's
on the mainland,
but there's no fucking boat, so
Oh, my God.
There's a medical centre
about half an hour away.
Oh, great. I reckon we just take
him, right?
I mean, he's clearly in shock.
Yeah. Yeah.
OK. Do you think you can get up?
Yeah. Yeah?
You're taking me to work?
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let's get you in.
I'm thirsty. Look, I know
you're thirsty, but Mummy's
got the bag, darling, OK?
And she'll be here any minute.
Wait, I can't see a temple anywhere.
Is this definitely the right place?
I think so.
I'm thinking
I should go look for them.
Well, look where? Well, there might
be another car park,
or I'll just drive
until I get more signal.
Er, you couldn't grab them a drink,
if you see somewhere? Yeah, sure.
I want to go home.
We're going to wait here for Mummy.
It's too hot!
Let's all go.
No, look, I'll take them.
You guys stay in case
the others appear.
Who wants to go
get ice cream with Auntie Nat?
Me. Me! Come on, then.
In you hop, guys. Buckle up, please.
Sol, what's going on?
Sol?
Sol?
I can't breathe. What?
I can't breathe!
What's going on? I can't
I can't feel my
I can't feel anything.
What do you mean?
I can't feel anything! It's OK.
Sol, I think you're having
a panic attack. OK.
In for four, out for eight.
That's it. I can't I can't
Yes, you can. Yes, you can.
Look at me.
That's good. That's good.
Oh, hey. Hey, no, stay with me.
Yeah, stay with me, don't
Can you open your eyes?
Yeah? Yeah
Yeah?
What team do you support?
HE MUMBLES
They sound great.
I don't know loads about football.
Hmm?
Yeah, great.
Just keep your eyes open.
Is he going to die?
No. How do you know?
Because that is not how
this ends. What?
You're doing really well.
Just keep breathing. Yeah?
OK. That's really good. OK.
OK. OK.
All right. All right. All you need
to do is get back in to the car
and then we just need to take him
to a doctor.
That's all you have to do.
I'll drive, OK?
Yeah? Yeah.
They'll be here soon.
Once Solomon's finished
punishing me.
He didn't get that part.
I thought they were going to see him
when we're back?
Yeah, that's what he says, but
Well, I mean, he takes it out on me
when he's feeling rejected.
I didn't know that.
He's an actor,
we put on a good show.
You know what that's like.
Yeah.
Yeah, well, if it's any consolation,
I'm being punished, too.
Zoe is being
Because of what happened with us?
Apparently.
Surely you guys are even
now, though.
What do you mean?
Erm
Er, last night, ermZoe and I
It was a game.
Spin the bottle type thing.
Yeah, we kissed.
Wow. That's, erm Yeah.
It was an in-the-moment
kind of thing. Quite intense.
But, ultimately,
it doesn't mean anything.
Just maybe that's useful for you to
even things out a little bit.
Am I supposed to saythank you?
No.
Do tell me what I'm supposed to
say to that.
I didn't mean to upset you.
No. Well, in the broader scheme
of things,
it hasn't upset methat,
that much.
Oh, my God. It's all so fucked up.
Yeah, I get that.
I mean, you probably know
more about our break-up than
I do about our break-up,
so tell me more.
No. I don't think I know
more than you.
No? I mean, for what it's worth
..I don't think she means it. Hmm,
it's not worth much. Sorry.
SHE LAUGHS
Fair.
Yeah.
She's just Acting like a child?
Yeah.
Look, what happened between
us was
..wrong.
And look, fair enough,
hate me for a bit,
but, like, we're married,
you know? We've got kids.
I think she means it.
Oh
What a shit holiday.
THEY LAUGH
HE YELLS
I might go up there.
Up See what I can see.
Yeah, I should
ErmI should
wait for the others.
OK. Just don't go without me.
No.
Jess?
So, you went back to the house?
Yeah, it's so
..full of character.
You're happy?
Ermyeah.
Then, I am happy too.
And I am happy for you
to meet my mother.
HE SPEAKS GREEK
So nice to meet you.
I love the house.
I just have a few tiny things.
Please.
Is there any running water at all?
There was water.
Not now?
And does the fridge or the oven
or anything work?
You can call someone
and try to fix it.
But it will cost you.
Right.
Look, it's a very old house, Nat.
No, I get it.
Look, I don't want to make
a big deal out of this.
But when you sold me the house,
I kind of thought it would have
things like taps and a toilet.
You saw the house last night.
Yeah, it was quite dark.
Yes, but you insisted
to make the payment.
Yeah, but someone should have
taken my phone.
You know, like car keys.
Don't drink and bank, Nat.
You think I'm taking advantage?
I didn't sign anything, so
We shook hands.
Did we? We had an agreement.
A gentleman's agreement.
It's not really a thing,
though, is it?
SHE SPEAKS GREEK
What's she saying?
She is saying that, er
..my father died in that house.
Oh, I'm sorry.
SHE SPEAKS GREEK
She says that, erm
..the house is full of
Memories.
Spirits.
Spirits. Like ghosts?
And she knows that they
will welcome you.
SHE SCOFFS
Look, Natalie,
it's a good life here.
And you will live long,
like my mother.
Come, let's have some ouzo now
and celebrate.
I want to say something,
erm, but I don't want you
to take it the wrong way.
OK.
Like, I love Zoe a lot.
But
..I don't think she knows
how good she's got it.
Solomongoes away on jobs
for weeks on end and leaves me
with some nanny.
Or no nanny, as it turns out.
Erm
Hmm.
And when he is actually there,
he wishes he was away working.
I know everything's been
really hard for you.
But at least you're trying.
To be honest, I think
that makes you a really good dad.
And if Zoe wants to leave you,
then I think she's a fool.
Thank you.
Oh, hey, Jess.
Come here.
THEY LAUGH
Sorry. That's OK.
HE EXHALES
SHE SNIFFLES
I'm glad you're here. Hey.
SHE LAUGHS
I want you to kiss me again.
Y-Y-You kissed me.
No, no, I don't think I did.
Yeah, you kissed me and
..and then you told everyone.
Do you Do you actually like me,
oror do you just hate Zoe?
I can'tI can't believe
I'm asking myself that question.
HE SIGHS
I'm going to head back.
Sowhat are we going to say?
The truth.
There was an accident.
Yeah.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah.
Where are we?
We've stopped by the doctors, mate.
They're just going to take
a quick look at your head.
No, no, no, no, no.
No, no doctors.
No, no, no.
You said you'd take me to work.
Yeah. What was your name again?
Jon.
Jon. Yeah. OK, Jon, listen,
I don't want to scare you
JON MOANS
..but it looks very,
very serious, OK?
Like, the back of your head
might be really cracked.
No. No, no doctor.
I-I really think you
No, you take me to work, right now.
I'm serious, Zoe.
WHISPERS: Just wait here.
SHE SIGHS
WHISPERS: Where's he from?
What?
Well, is he Greek, or
I don't
Why would I know?
Erwell, I think
he might be here illegally.
Like a refugee?
That would explain
why he doesn't want to be seen.
That doesn't matter, does it?
Cos they still would
need to treat him, right?
They can see him now.
Jacob thinks he might be here
illegally.
Oh.
So
..he's not going to want
any authorities involved.
Don't sound too relieved.
I'm sorry?
Never mind if he bleeds to death,
so long as there's no officials
involved. Guys! Are you serious?!
Yeah, I'm sorry, if it does
get official, I will NOT be lying
for you. Oh, so you'll tell them
about how you tried to do
a hit-and-run, will you?
Ugh! I was going to get help!
Yeah.
And then I realised I couldn't,
you know, I couldn't do it on foot.
Yeah.
Where is he?
Well, we can't just let him go.
Can we?
Jon.
Jon!
You promised you'd take me to work.
I know, I'm sorry. I'm late now,
I could lose my job.
We were worried.
No, don't be worried for me, OK?
I don't need your
fucking worry, OK?!
I'm sorry. Argh! Whoa.
Are you OK? Do you want to sit down?
HE GROANS
Whoa
HE MOANS
HE GROANS
I'm fine.
HE SIGHS
It's true he's a film star?
Solomon?
He's an actor.
Hmm.
His daughter, she's
..she's a nice girl.
But, I mean, she'sshe's
too young.
And I told her,
but she won't stop
texting, calling, everything.
Really? Yeah, all the time.
I feel bad for her.
But, I mean
..she's not my type.
THEY LAUGH
Jon, last night was
I think so too. Oh.
HE CHUCKLES
Good. Good.
But do you think we could
..keep it between us?
I justI just
thought we would be together.
Erm
It's a joke.
Oh, my God!
Chill. It's OK.
I understand.
I know what happens on vacation
stays on vacation, right?
I know the rules.
You have many secrets, Zoe?
What? No.
I think you do.
Cheers.
Ready?
Going to take a bit of this off.
JON WINCES
Oh
I don't know what happened.
WellI do.
I just lost it.
Neither of us were
our best selves today.
Maybe we don't need to
tell the others.
And I was up so early
this morning, and
..everything with this job.
That woman accusing Avery of
I shouldn't have let it
get to me but
No, I get it.
It was actually really
inappropriate of her to do that.
She shouldn't have
shamed her like that.
You talk to Avery about it?
It's quite hard
..talking about things like that,
isn't it?
But, you know, who else could it be?
Do you want to loosen it? Mm-hm.
I think I might walk back.
Really? It's quite a way.
I could do with the air.
Zoe
..yesterday, when I heard about
you and Dan,
it wasn't great of me to be so
..angry about it.
Don't worry.
Because it's not about me,
is it? It's about you.
And I haven't even asked you
how you are.
This is me asking, by the way.
THEY LAUGH
I'm so many things. I'm
I'm scared, I suppose.
For all of us.
The kids, more than anything.
Are you sure it's what you want?
It's quite hard to know
what you want, isn't it?
Yeah.
Sometimes.
It all gets so confused with what
you're supposed to want.
And some things you want
but can't necessarily have.
What do you do about that?
I guess it's about
how you feel, really.
Whatever you do is a risk, isn't it?
Yes.
Do you believe some things
are meant to be?
I think I hit him on purpose.
What? That kid this morning.
I wanted to kill him.
Like, I actually thought,
"I wish you'd just fucking die!"
Oh, because of
Yeah, because
More so that he was with her when I
should have been taking care of her.
I forgot to check that she was
in last night.
I was so preoccupied with
Oh, and I don't mean that I hit him
on purpose, or consciously.
I swear to God, I didn't see him.
I just
But on some level
Sol.
You wouldn't.
