00:30Right, well, thanks for that.
00:37You couldn't even say goodbye.
00:38Can I just speak to you?
00:39Hey, baby, call me back.
00:40Does he not deserve better?
00:42I'm done trying, okay?
00:43Call me back.
01:00Sneaking out behind my back again.
01:06No, John, I wasn't.
01:07I wasn't.
01:08I just...
01:09I need to go to the hospital.
01:10I still don't feel right.
01:11Of course you don't feel right.
01:13You've had a seizure.
01:15You're not fully recovered yet.
01:18Now let's get you inside and back upstairs, hey?
01:20Just when I thought my day couldn't get any better.
01:30Charity disappears, you appear.
01:36Chas, I need to speak to my brother.
01:38So?
01:38I've been calling him, but he's not picking up.
01:41Vic told me that they're moving into the house that John lived in as a kid.
01:44I don't know where that is.
01:45I don't have the address.
01:47But even if I did, you wouldn't be getting it.
01:52Move on, Robert.
01:54He has.
01:56And jealousy.
01:58It'll eat you alive.
01:59I don't want another drink.
02:15I'm not thirsty.
02:17It's not about what you want.
02:19It's about what you need.
02:21Come on.
02:21Drink up.
02:22Good boy.
02:49I'm going to make you better.
02:51Even if it kills me.
02:59I'm going to leave you to sleep this off.
03:02Okay?
03:03I've just got a little errand to run.
03:05Where?
03:06Never you mind.
03:09I'll be back before you know it.
03:10No.
03:21You all right there, Pollard?
03:39Just there.
03:40Want a drink on your own?
03:41One of the most underrated pleasures ever.
03:47You're not going to try and ruin it for me, are you?
03:49No, I was actually, I was hoping you might be able to help me with something.
03:52Vic mentioned you may have kept in contact with John's mum.
03:55The odd Christmas card.
03:58That sort of thing.
03:58Well, so you'll still have an address then?
04:05I wish it didn't have to be this way.
04:08After what happened yesterday.
04:13You've left me no choice.
04:14That was a close call.
04:24Aaron.
04:25Is Aaron all right?
04:27Right now, this isn't about him.
04:31You know, this might sound crazy, but in a strange way, I should be thanking you.
04:37If it wasn't for you, I'd never have found out what happened between Aaron and Robert.
04:45And getting it out in the open, it has made us even stronger.
04:51We're in a really good place right now.
04:54Well, let's show you in a really good place.
04:55Why can't you just let me go?
04:58I would love that.
05:02I swear, John, just let me go.
05:06And I promise I will disappear.
05:10I won't say anything to anyone.
05:12You'll just disappear.
05:13I don't want to die.
05:14I don't want you to die either.
05:16If you're not going to kill me, what are you doing?
05:20Why are you keeping me locked up in here?
05:22You can't keep me locked up here forever.
05:24You're right.
05:26I can't.
05:34Sometimes.
05:36Decisions are taken out of our hands.
05:41John, whatever happened in the past, Nate and Aidan, they were accidents.
06:05If you made a mistake, you don't need to make another one.
06:07I didn't want you to suffer.
06:09This was never about that.
06:11John, just put the syringe down.
06:13You don't need it.
06:14I don't.
06:15But you might.
06:17If you want to stop the suffering, you now have a choice.
06:19To inject yourself, that there'll be no pain.
06:22You'll just feel drowsy and drift off into a deep sleep.
06:25I won't wake up from it.
06:27This will be the last time you see me.
06:28I won't be coming back here again.
06:29No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
06:30Please, you can't do that.
06:31I didn't want this.
06:33I swear, if there'd been any other way.
06:35John, you can't just leave me in here to die.
06:37I'm sorry.
06:38I am so sorry.
06:39John, no.
06:41John.
06:42John.
06:43John.
06:44John, no.
06:46John.
06:47What are you doing here?
07:02I just wanted to see how Hansel and Gretel were getting on in a cottage in the woods.
07:05You're not welcome here.
07:06I'm not here for you.
07:07I'm here for Aaron.
07:08Me and Aaron, we were happy.
07:10Before I came back into his life, you know it and I know it.
07:14I was never out.
07:15You really think him sleeping with you changed anything?
07:18No, what I think is you like to make things go away.
07:23Did you make Matt go away?
07:26He's disappeared, just like Nate, except Nate's dead.
07:30Did you kill them both?
07:35Unlike you, Robert, I haven't killed anyone.
07:40You need help.
07:41Real help.
07:42But what I need is to see Aaron, make sure he's safe.
07:45What, so you can sleep with him again?
07:46No, so I could get him a million miles away from you.
07:48Aaron is going nowhere.
07:50He is happy here with me.
07:51And you, you are going to spend the rest of what is left of your pathetic, lonely life
07:57knowing that you lost.
08:01The best brother one, Robert.

10:14Mackenzie!
10:16What have you done to him?
10:26What have you done to him?
10:39Aaron?
10:40Mackenzie?
10:42What have you done to him? Where is he?
10:47You've got his phone.
10:50Because I found him.
10:52You're lying to me.
10:53No.
10:54I heard him.
10:56I heard him. He was shouting my name.
11:00He was here.
11:02He was. He was here.
11:03He was somewhere.
11:06And there was a door.
11:08There was a metal door.
11:09And it was in the ground.
11:10How many times, Aaron, you were hearing things.
11:13You're seeing things that aren't really there.
11:15Your brain is playing tricks on you.
11:16You're playing tricks on me.
11:19You're playing tricks on me with all these drugs that you've been giving me.
11:24I was just trying to help you.
11:27Hey.
11:28You still want to go to the hospital?
11:30Hmm?
11:31Hmm?
11:33Fine.
11:35Fine.
11:36We can go right now.
11:37Don't touch me.
11:39Don't you.
11:41Don't touch me.
11:45I just want to know what you've done to him.
11:50Please.
11:53Please just tell me what you've done to him.
12:00It was an accident.
12:01Oh, my God.
12:02I was just trying to help him.
12:04I know it doesn't make sense, Aaron.
12:05But that is just the medication.
12:09You are not thinking straight.
12:12I'm thinking straight.
12:13I'm thinking straight for the first...
12:16For the first time in a long time.
12:20I'm thinking perfectly straight.
12:24And I just want to know what you've done to him.
12:26Please.
12:27Just tell me what have you...
12:30What have you done to him?
12:35He's alive.
12:48He's alive.
13:04I've been looking after him.
13:06He was in a bad way.
13:12I didn't want him to die.
13:15I'm telling you the truth.
13:18It was all for you, Aaron.
13:23I didn't want to fall in love with you.
13:26But I did.
13:30And then...
13:32I didn't know how to stop.
13:34I didn't want to stop.
13:39But then things happened.
13:44What things?
13:45I couldn't control it. I couldn't control myself.
13:48I just needed people to know that I am a good person.
13:54But what do you mean?
13:57Love.
14:00John.
14:00Aaron.
14:01You are my husband.
14:03I know things have gotten a bit crazy, but we can work it out.
14:13I know we can.
14:17Yeah.
14:18You're right.
14:20You're right.
14:23We can work it out.
14:26We can work it out.
14:27But you have to trust me.
14:36Because what...
14:37Whatever you've done...
14:40We can deal with it.
14:42I get it.
14:56Okay?
14:58Sometimes we...
14:59We have to do what we have to do to protect what means the most to us.
15:01I mean...
15:02My whole life I've smashed things up because I've been angry at the world.
15:06We can get past this.
15:07I know we can.
15:08We can.
15:08We can.
15:10Now, Anthony...
15:11You thought your life was over, but I...
15:13I fixed that, didn't I?
15:15I can fix this too.
15:17Yeah.
15:17We've both got our demons.
15:19But I can't help you if you're still holding things back from me.
15:26I've...
15:26I've wanted to tell you for so long, but I'm...
15:30I was just frightened I'd scare you off.
15:34Hey.
15:35Hey.
15:37You can never scare me off.
15:39What do you need to tell me?
15:43What have you done, John?
15:46There's so many bad things.
15:49Too many.
15:53So then talk to me, and we can get past it.
16:10Just...
16:10Just saying it out loud.
16:16It was me.
16:25I did it.
16:27I killed Nate.
16:31It was an accident.
16:33I swear, things just get...
16:35Things just went wrong.
16:38I have only ever wanted to help people.
16:42Make them realise how much they needed me.
16:44But when my mum died, I couldn't help her.
16:47I couldn't save her.
16:48What people?
16:51Jacob.
16:53When he had his allergic reaction.
16:54And all the things Ella was blamed for, it wasn't Ella.
17:03My mum.
17:05You took my mum.
17:07I didn't want to hurt anyone.
17:08I was just trying to...
17:10You were just trying to play the hero.
17:11I...
17:12I know how it sounds, but...
17:16You understand, don't you?
17:18What we do for love.
17:21I mean...
17:22You put Jackson out of his misery.
17:25Just tell me where Mackenzie is.
17:28Near the cottage in the woods.
17:30There's an old...
17:31old war bunker.
17:32I used to play in it when I was a kid.
17:34Playing heroes.
17:35And this...
17:37This bunker...
17:40had a metal door.
17:42I didn't imagine it, did I?
17:44I did see it.
17:47Okay.
17:48You need to show me where it is.
17:50I'm so sorry, Aaron.
17:51I am so...
17:52sorry.
17:53If you are sorry...
17:55you know what you have to do.
18:01You have to call the police.
18:03And tell them what you've done.
18:05It's the only way to put things right.
18:09Aaron!
18:12I am so stupid.
18:13What?
18:14You tricked me.
18:15You brought him here.
18:16No.
18:16Didn't you?
18:16You're in this together.
18:17Nobody's playing tricks on you.
18:18Get that idea out of your head.
18:19So why is he here then?
18:20I don't know why he's here,
18:21but you have to know.
18:22He means nothing to me.
18:23You need to know that.
18:24He means nothing to me anymore, okay?
18:25Well, you slept with him,
18:26and now here he is.
18:27Yeah, well, I made a mistake.
18:28I told you I made a mistake,
18:29and we both made them.
18:30But right now, it isn't about him.
18:32It's about you.
18:33And what you've done to Mackenzie,
18:34and...
18:34Mackenzie!
18:35Well, you've just...
18:35You have done something to him, then.
18:37What have you done to him?
18:38John, it doesn't have to end like this.
18:39It won't just go away.
18:42It was only ever meant to be me and you.
18:44Yeah, me and you against the world,
18:45and it still can be.
18:46Listen.
18:47Listen, listen.
18:48Look at me.
18:48Just look at me.
18:50If you still want a future with me,
18:52if you love me the way you say you do,
18:55then you need to put things right.
18:57You need to call the police
18:58and tell them about all the things you've done
19:00to Nate,
19:02to my mum,
19:02and everything else.
19:06John, please.
19:14I'm only doing this for you, Aaron.
19:18For us.
19:18Help!
19:39I need the police right now.
19:40What are you doing?
19:41I'm at Langston Gorge,
19:42near Kellogg Forest.
19:43My husband's ex has just turned up.
19:45He's threatening to kill us.
19:46What?
19:46Please.
19:47You need to come right now.
19:48I'm really scared.
19:55You really think
19:56I don't know what you're doing?
20:01You're insane!
20:02John, you have to call them back.
20:04You want me to throw myself under the bus
20:05just so you two can carry on where you left off?
20:08No, no.
20:08It wasn't like that.
20:09It wasn't like that.
20:09It's...
20:10Look, John,
20:11it really doesn't have to end like this.
20:13I can still help you if you let me.
20:14Please.
20:16I'm so sorry, Aaron.
20:20I'm so sorry.
20:22But I just saw him.
20:24Yeah, I know.
20:25I know.
20:26But if...
20:27John, please,
20:27you can't go back on...
20:29on it now.
20:30When the police do turn over,
20:31you just...
20:32You just tell them what you told me.
20:36You just tell them the truth,
20:37John, please.
20:38I've already told you, Aaron.
20:45I just loved you too much.
20:49I know.
20:52It's going to be okay.
20:54Aaron!
20:55Will you just shut up?
20:57But if you can't be mine,
20:58I'm sorry.
21:00You can't be anyone's.
21:02It's going to be okay.
