Not seen that before.
So?
So it's nice. It's very cool.
It's a fucking jacket.
All right. Jesus Christ, Aaron.
Do you know what? I'm too tired.
Sorry, Danny.
All right, yeah.
That there, that's Aaron.
And, er, that's Tammy,
and that's Joe.
'Ello.
Er, yeah. And, er,
that's their dad, Paul.
Just their dad.
Beat yer.
Right, so, can I get you a cup
of tea or anything?
I don't know.
All right. It's fine.
Er, Aaron, do you want to
show Danny your room?
Aaron!
Here y'are, tell you what, mate,
I'll show you up. Come on.
- Thanks, Paul.
- All right. No problem.
Right, what's wrong?
Well, nowt. I just didn't know
I'd have to share my room
- with a complete mentalist.
- Christ, what do you expect?
His dad has just
bloody killed himself!
He's going to need
a bit of time, love.
But he'll settle in.
- What, is he staying?
- Look
you two are going to be
as thick as thieves.
I don't need a mate.
- No, please. Please, please.
- It's all right. Hey, hey.
You've just had a bad dream,
all right? You're OK.
- It's fine. OK?
- Fucking hell!
Come on, you two, now, please.
Come on.
Don't be sitting there
all day, all right?
And if Danny comes down,
just be nice to him.
Keep an eye on him, make him
a sandwich or something,
I don't know.
Just call me if you need me.
- All right
- Right, out, now. Come on.
Oh, yes, please! Ohhh!
- I thought you were working.
- I am working.
I'm allowed a break, aren't I?
Here's the kick!
Oh, he just stayed in the back!
Oh!
Hello. How you doing, mate?
Come on, come and sit down, mate.
- Come and watch a bit of telly.
- OK.
What is it?
You never seen Soapbox Race
before? It's brilliant.
Oh, he just kept a hold of it!
It's very bright.
Er, yeah. Yeah, it is bright.
What did you?
Erm, y'know, when you was back
at home, what did you watch?
Films?
All right, go on, then.
Like what? Which ones?
Casablanca.
And His Girl Friday.
And Millions Like Us.
That was our favourite, with
Patricia Roc and Gordon Jackson.
Did they ever drive round
in a big block of cheese or?
- No.
- Ah, well, still good, though, yeah?
Yeah, I'm going to, erm
I think I'd better
just get on with it.
a recipe for disaster
He's nice.
Yeah.
Where's your dad?
Here we go again
What?
Did? Did he die?
- No.
- Oh.
So where'd he go?
He just went, all right?
Right, so that's everything
I need for today.
So, obviously, we'll be
seeing you next Friday.
So that's it, yeah?
Yeah, unless there's
anything else you need.
Oh, no, no. No, that's fine,
yeah. Ten minutes' chat.
No, yeah, we're fine.
We're all sorted now.
- Do you think you should turn that off?
- Sorry.
I am sorry. To be honest, though,
most abuse cases
don't have the support
that Danny has, so
Yeah, no, it's fine, yeah.
See you next week, then.
What does she mean
"abuse"?
Well, it's when
someone doesn't
treat someone very well.
I weren't abused.
Oh, God, no.
No, I know you weren't, love.
Bloody hell.
Come here. You're fine.
It's all right.
- What are you doing?!
- I wasn't going out!
- Don't lie to me.
- I'm not.
- Don't lie to me!
- I'm not!
- Danny, don't lie to me!
- I'm not!
All right.
I'm sorry, mate.
It's just you scared me,
you little nut.
We stay in, where it's safe.
OK?
OK.
- Who are they?
- Just people.
Are they your friends?
Yeah.
They seem nice.
They're cunts.
- What does that mean?
- It means
they're fucking
horrid and ghastly.
Oh.
Is that why you're always
on your own?
It's very boring, in't it?
What is?
Just sitting here
looking at pictures of cunts.
Yeah.
Yeah, it is.
Maybe I could meet
your friends sometime.
Well, you'd have to leave
t'house first, wouldn't yer?
How long's he been like that?
Ages.
Well, at least he's smiling.
Looks like a pervert.
Fancy a beer?
- What about Danny?
- He's fine. Come on.
Your mum'd flip if she knew
I was having a drink in the day.
But this way, I can tell her
we're bonding.
So, what's new?
Pfft Nothing.
Hey, how's that Kelly girl
getting on?
- Why?
- Just wondered.
Haven't seen her around
for a while. Is she all right?
Yeah.
Nice girl, I thought.
Yeah
So? Why don't you
give her a call?
Nah.
It's roast beef, innit?
What?
She's a slag. That's what you call
it when they get fucked so much,
their pussies look like
All right, come on, Aaron, mate,
that's
You don't even talk like that.
Er, actually, I clearly do, mate.
All right?
And actually,
you're not my fucking mate,
so why don't you just fuck off?
You all right, love?
Yeah.
Where's Danny?
Erm He's in t'garden.
What, on his own?
Yeah. He's fine.
Where is he?
Erm
Danny?
Danny!
Fucking hell. Where is he?
- He were just here!
- Oh, Jesus Christ, Aaron!
sake!
Hello.
Danny?
- Oh, Jesus Christ.
- What's he doing in here?!
I don't bloody know! Why wasn't
someone watching him?
We were!
I just had a quick break.
Jesus!
- What you doing?
- I don't know.
I'm so sorry, Siobhan.
I know it's all mad and
new and
Danny, you can't do that.
She was scared.
You really scared her.
Danny?
I want me dad.
Come on, mate.
What was it Jesus said?
Man cannot live
by Jaffa Cakes alone.
Something about Jaffa Cakes.
Usual drill, mate.
Dad, do you have to go out?
Danny, they can't get you
in here.
You know that, don't you?
Yeah, of course.
Good lad.
Dad?
Are you OK?
All fine, mate, don't you worry.
All right, mate,
nearly out of range.
Love you.
Love you.
My mum said
that Sam's mum found you
when she got out of the bath.
Yes.
I'm sorry that I, er,
weren't watching you.
Oh, that's OK.
What were it like out there?
Really strange.
Why?
Didn't see any monsters.
No shit.
You do know there aren't
any monsters really, don't you?
My dad wouldn't lie to me.
Come here.
Sorry I tried to go out.
I won't do it again.
I lost your mum, Danny.
I'm not going to lose you, too.
