[TRAFFIC ROARING]
[TENSE MUSIC]
[TIRES SQUEALING] [HORNS BLARING]
[TASHA] We're sold a lie from birth.
- [TIRES SQUEALING]
- [TENSE MUSIC]
The idea that there are
good people and bad people.
[HORNS BLARING]
But there aren't.
We all have the best of intentions.
[TIRES SQUEAL]
[METAL SCREECHING]
[TIRES SQUEALING]
[HORN BLARING]
[BYSTANDER] We need some help!
[TASHA] Love can
justify almost anything.
[SIREN WAILING]
If you believe in it hard enough.
[EXPLOSION BOOMS]
It can make us all do terrible things.
[MELANCHOLY MUSIC]
[PHONE RINGING]
Hey you.
Jack?
Yeah, coming.
No, of course. Of course.
[MELANCHOLY MUSIC]
No, I understand.
No, she'll be fine.
She'll be fine.
It'll be fine.
I'll make it fine.
Just leave it up to me.
[MELANCHOLY MUSIC]
Yeah, no. I'll tell her myself.
No, I think I'll wait and
tell her in the morning.
Because tonight's our
wedding anniversary, Jen.
No, not ours. Mine and Tasha's.
[TASHA LAUGHS]
All right. Yeah.
You know?
No, I appreciate the call.
All right. Okay.
I'm going now. Bye bye.
- You don't wanna know.
- I do. Tell me.
Look at this.
What have I done to deserve this?
Emily's asleep.
One story. Milk. Conked out.
So what was she saying?
[MELANCHOLY MUSIC]
She called about my sister.
- Hayley?
- Mm-hm.
A heads up.
Wine first, I think.
Oh, a heads up Tonight.
She knows exactly when
we got married, Jack.
Trust me.
So what was she saying about Hayley?
Well, apparently she wants
us to be Ethan's godparents.
Oh, wow. That's so nice.
No, sorry.
Me and Jen she wants me and
Jen to be Ethan's godparents.
- Hence the heads up.
- Oh yeah.
Wait, your sister wants
you and your ex-wife
to be her only child's godparents?
And I'm
You're Auntie Tash.
They definitely want you there.
It's just Jen and Hayley have
been best friends for 20 years.
All right.
Okay. Okay.
[MELANCHOLY MUSIC]
I know it's not the most
glamorous wedding anniversary gift
and I know you hate receiving handouts.
It's always in the back of your head.
Now it's gone.
[TASHA] The rest of my student loan.
[MELANCHOLY MUSIC]
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
[TENSE MUSIC]
[TENSE MUSIC]
Fuck!
Fucking idiots.
Thanks for all your fucking
help, mate Nice one.
[BABY CRYING]
I said you needed a criminal
lawyer, not a media one.
Why didn't you hammer home
the mitigating circumstances.
That's all you needed to Oh.
Didn't do mitigating because
they didn't play well.
How would bringing
that up have helped us?
I don't know. You're the
one arguing the case, not me.
Now I can't even drive
my wife and child home.
So thank you.
Look what you've done to my baby, prick.
[BABY CRYING]
- Look.
- Well, I gotta dash, mate.
We'll talk later, yeah?
Still on for climbing Friday?
Yeah, of course.
[BABY CRYING]
Lola?
Yeah. Could you get someone from
the office to pick me up please?
- Let's go!
- Yeah, anybody who's free.
Yes, they banned me for three years.
[BABY COOS, LOLA HUMMS]
Ssh!
[JACK] Tasha? Jen's here.
Oh God.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
[TASHA] Look! Look!
It'd Daddy's ex-wife Again.
[LOCK CHIRPS]
[GENTLE MUSIC]
Who's afraid of the big, bad wolf?
The big bad
[GENTLE MUSIC]
- [JACK] Hey.
- [JEN] You smell fabulous.
[JEN] Wait, did I buy you that?
[JACK] Probably.
[JEN] I brought your favorite.
Oh, I haven't had this in ages.
This is fancy. Thank you.
- Thank you so much.
- I knew you'd love it.
- You love your reds.
- Hi. How's it going?
Hi. How are you?
[JEN] Oh, you poor thing.
A three-year driving ban?
God, that's outrageous.
And Tasha can't drive either, can she?
Oh, I can drive.
I just, I don't have a license.
Wait, Jack, how are you
gonna get to the christening?
We'll just get the train.
The train on a Sunday?
Jack hates the train.
Plus the station is
nowhere near the church.
Well, I guess we'll have
to rethink going then.
Or Jack, maybe you can go and I'll
just stay behind here with Emily.
No, no. Then Jack's mum
and dad will miss out.
God, they'll be heartbroken
if they don't get a squeeze.
Listen, why don't I just drive us all?
I mean, I've certainly got the space.
Problem solved.
[TRAFFIC WHOOSHING]
[JEN] You know the church we're
going to is where I was christened?
- [JACK] Seriously?
- [JEN] Yeah.
[JACK] Do you think
they still remember you?
It was such a long time ago.
Hey, we're practically the same age.
Oh, this is gonna be so fun.
And I have the perfect playlist.
Oh God. Brace yourselves.
You remember this song, right?
- Oh shit!
- Yes!
Do you remember when we were
in that beach bar in Mykonos?
- This is all they played.
- Yes.
[JACK] They only had
one CD, I'm sure of it.
[JEN] Of course I remember.
And the waitress who
kept dropping our drinks.
[JACK] Oh yeah!
And you wondered why I didn't tip her.
Oh, she was so sweet.
Absolutely ruined your
shirt though. Remember?
Listen, you know how my
dad loves a little dance.
- Yes.
- He will probably wanna
[BRIGHT MUSIC AND VOICES MUMBLING]
[UPBEAT MUSIC]
[PHONE RINGING]
Hello?
[SAM] Any news?
Sam, the interview was last week.
They're not gonna give me a
full-time position that quickly.
Why?
'Cause it is a proper
job with proper grownups
and proper grownup money.
Okay.
I mean, I'm no employment guru,
but I'd say probably don't
tell people at the coffee shop
you think it's a fake job?
Or you'll end up like
me, gaming in your boxers.
Yeah. You're living your
best life though, right?
Continue. See you tonight.
Yes. Okay. Yeah.
All right, later.
[TRAFFIC WHOOSHING]
[TIRES SQUEAL]
[BODY THUDS]
[EARS RING]
[JACK] You okay?
Can you hear me?
Can you hear me?
Call an ambulance.
Oh, no, I'm okay. I'm fine.
[TASHA PANTS]
- Actually, I've gotta get to work.
- No, no.
I don't think you should move.
You might have a back injury.
No, I'm pretty sure I don't.
I'm so sorry. I didn't see.
You popped out nowhere and
Yeah. All right. All right.
If you can move, we should
probably get you off the road.
- Yep.
- Come on.
Here, let me help. Let me help you up.
Thank you.
You all right? Can you walk?
Yeah.
Can you walk?
- Do you want an arm?
- No.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
Fuck's sake.
[SIGHS]
- Here.
- Thanks.
You don't have the time, do you?
10:17.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
- Why? Work?
- Yeah.
Well, I can call them
and explain everything.
Okay. Yeah, actually that'd
be really good, thank you.
- Okay.
- Fuck
Sorry. Do you mind just
Oh, yeah. Okay.
Ah, fuck!
Ah.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
Do I have to get this checked out or
No, it just needs cleaning, that's all.
Listen, I live 15 minutes that way.
So if you like, I'm happy to
I'll get you fixed up.
I'll put that in the boot.
I'll get that fixed up.
I'll throw in a cup of tea
and a taxi home if you like.
- Okay. Okay. Yeah.
- Sure?
Thank you. Yeah.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
[CAR WHOOSHING]
[KEYS JINGLING]
kay. Come on in.
I think I've got a
first-aid kit somewhere.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
Not bad.
Thank you. Here. I'll
leave this here for you.
- Tea?
- Yeah, please.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
[TAP WHOOSHES]
You all right there?
Here.
All right?
Milk?
Yes, please.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
That's the fridge.
[TASHA LAUGHS]
Sorry.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
[TASHA LAUGHS]
So listen. I'm happy to pay
for your bike to get repaired.
Or if you prefer, I
can just give you cash.
You could get a new one.
Is 400 quid
I dunno how much they cost.
What about my smashed phone?
Cost like a grand.
Did it?
No, not really.
It's refurbished.
800 will cover everything.
That'll do.
Here.
No, come on.
We start with this.
Here we go.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
It's gonna sting.
Doesn't sting?
[TASHA LAUGHS]
Is that your wife?
Yep. That's Jen.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
She's very young.
We both were.
Here, swap.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
[TRAFFIC WHOOSHING]
[STEAM HISSING]
[TASHA] Hello?
[JACK] How are the war wounds?
Hey.
Yeah, they're healing up nicely. Thanks.
Good, good.
Listen, I've got a meeting in town,
but I should be done by about 6:00.
So if you're free, we could
get an early dinner maybe.
As a thank you. or a sorry.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
I've gotta check on that arm, haven't I?
Okay.
This is just a sorry, right?
Of course.
[GENTLE MUSIC AND PEOPLE CHATTERING]
[JACK] So graphic design I
know what it is, but what is it?
It's an umbrella term, really.
But personally I'm into
pictographs or pictograms.
And so now pretend that
I have absolutely no idea
what you're talking about.
They're images that we all agree on.
Like road signs or
labels or warnings.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
Their meaning has to be crystal clear,
unambiguous, purely functional.
And, right. And you like that?
What? Functionality?
Lack of ambiguity.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
Yeah. I do.
[PATRONS CHATTERING]
Noted.
[WAITRESS] Here we are.
And yours. Enjoy.
You can ask about her. It's fine.
[TENSE MUSIC]
What does she do?
Interior design.
It's like hotels and restaurants.
Couple of bars.
She loves it.
She's very good, she's
pretty sought after.
Well, that explains why
your house is so beautiful.
[JACK SCOFFS]
No kids?
No, no. No kids.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
Okay. There was a bit
of a problem there.
And IVF didn't, wasn't working, so
She can't.
- Oh, she can't.
- No.
I'm sorry. Is this too much?
No, no, no, no. Of course not.
I just, I don't really wanna
bombard you with all of this stuff.
It's not your problem,
it's, my marriage is
We've been together a really long
time and we've been through a lot.
And I wanted to make her happy.
I tried to make her happy, but
life doesn't always work
out that way, you know?
You can't force someone to be
happy if fundamentally they're
[JACK SIGHS]
It's okay for you to
want to be happy, Jack.
[TRAFFIC WHOOSHING]
Jen's agreed to a trial separation.
It's nothing big now,
it's just separate rooms.
So we can think about
what we actually want.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
[TASHA] And you can see other people?
If that's what I want.
Is it something you might want?
[GENTLE MUSIC]
Is it something you want?
[JACK AND TASHA PANTING]
[JACK AND TASHA PANTING]
[TASHA] That was three months ago.
I'm sorry I didn't tell you.
And you did the test yesterday?
It estimates about seven weeks.
I did the entire pack.
Well, that's two months ago.
So when we
- You and him
- It's not yours, Sam.
- Please don't do this right now.
- Okay.
So what are you gonna do about it?
[TASHA SCOFFS]
I'm pregnant with a married man's child.
What do you think I'm gonna do?
[GENTLE MUSIC]
Have you told him yet?
[TASHA SIGHS]
[JACK] Are you certain?
Yes, but it's fine.
I've already called a clinic.
Obviously I'm getting rid of it.
Tasha, come here, come here.
Okay. Talk to me properly.
Really properly.
It's fine.
I'll be fine.
- It takes less than an hour.
- Shut up now.
Shut up.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
This is amazing.
This is perfect.
This is so amazing.
It's perfect. [JACK LAUGHS]
Really?
Yes, of course
[GENTLE MUSIC]
[JACK AND TASHA LAUGHING]
I mean, what the fuck?
[BABY CRYING]
[PRIEST SPEAKING IN LATIN]
[PRIEST CONTINUES IN LATIN]
[BABY CRYING]

[PEOPLE LAUGHING AND CHATTING]
[PEOPLE CHATTING]

[BABY CRYING AND CHATTER]
Oh my goodness. I think you
should take him upstairs.
[BABY CRYING]
[PEOPLE CHATTERING]
- Hey.
- Oh, hi.
- Thank you.
- Oh, that one's for me, actually.
You can have mine. There you go.
Oh, sorry. I didn't realize.
- Anyone else? Top ups?
- [JEN] Oh, yes, please.
Me, Jackie.
Thank you.
- There you go.
- Oh, I'm drinking like a fish.
Guys. Picture please.
Come here.
Ready?
- Perfectly timed.
- Huh?
Oh
h, darling. Oh, it's okay.
It's me.
[EERIE MUSIC AND DISTANT BABY CRIES]
Gorgeous.
Gorgeous.
- [JEN] Oh, let me have a look.
- I knew you'd wanna have a look.
See?
- Oh, look at her!
- Love these, by the way.
Thank you.
I know. I know.
[BRIGHT MUSIC]
[GUESTS CHATTERING]
Are you having an okay time?
I'm having a great time.
Jen's wandering around
like she's still your wife.
Hayley's been ignoring
me since I got here.
Oh, and your parents
haven't even said hello yet.
It's not deliberate.
There are hello.
very spooky old people
they've not seen for years.
Pretty sure they all
think I'm the nanny.
They don't.
You know she did this
deliberately, don't you?
The godparent thing.
She's trying to make a
point. I'm not welcome.
She is not trying to make a point.
Look, come on, you know they've
been best friends since preschool.
- So
- Not that long then.
How much of this have you had?
Not enough, clearly.
If you're gonna have a domestic,
do it somewhere private, please?
We're not having a
domestic, you witty old cow.
[BRIGHT MUSIC]
Oh, here we go.
[GUESTS CHATTERING]
He's fine.
I think it's just difficult having
You know?
Having both me and Jen here.
Well, it's just a party, Natasha.
Jen seems okay with things.
If anything, she should
be the one with the issue.
I know.
But maybe for the next big family thing,
it's better if only one of us comes.
It's just a little bit
Yeah.
Yeah. Maybe next time it would
be better if you didn't come.
[GUESTS CHATTERING]
Oh fuck off.
Classy.
You know, we all know
what you did to get here.
To get that ring. That house.
Jack and Jen tried
for years to have kids.
He couldn't.
His chances were incredibly low.
And then you, conveniently,
show up pregnant.
You might have got
everything you wanted,
but you don't get to choose my friends.
[BRIGHT MUSIC AND GUESTS CHATTERING]
- Everything all right?
- Yeah. Fine.
Okay. What happened?
This needs to stop.
No more Jen coming to the house.
It's weird for me and for Emily.
- Okay.
- Okay?
- Okay.
- Okay?
Of course. I'll speak
to her in the morning.
But I'll let them have today.
[BRIGHT MUSIC AND GUESTS CHATTERING]
[JACK SIGHS]
Should we get pissed?
- Mm-hm.
- Mm-hm.
[TENSE MUSIC]
Hayley said something today.
[JACK] Oh God.
Whatever it was, it was probably
just Hayley being Hayley.
You'll learn to ignore it.
I do.
About you and Jen.
She said it was you not Jen
who had fertility problems.
[TENSE MUSIC]
You said it was Jen when
you were trying for kids.
Okay.
[TENSE MUSIC]
Well, yeah, she's right.
Plenty of swimmers. Just
not the best athletes.
So hard, but not impossible.
We could have kept going,
but she wanted to stop.
So we stopped.
[TENSE MUSIC]
Why didn't you tell me?
Why do you think?
You're a lot younger than I am.
And I'm a big, stupid bloke.
I quite liked you.
[TASHA LAUGHS]
I quite liked you too.
Yeah, I know.
[TENSE MUSIC]

[KEYS LIGHTLY TAPPING]

Hey, do you know where
I can find pumpkin seeds?
Yeah. Come. I show you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Hey.
Oh, hey.
Natasha.
You shop here?
Yeah. It's the closest
one to the house so
- Ae you local?
- Ish.
Bit of a creature of habit.
It's a bit of a drive,
but I do like it here.
Speaking of which,
thank you very much for
driving us to the christening.
Hello, beautiful.
Are you helping Mummy? Yeah.
Oh, those things are great, aren't they?
I've got friends that swear by them.
Who has the time to make
things fresh anymore?
Oh, I think
- Oh.
- Do you still want them?
Yes, I do.
It's all right. I'll watch her.
Hello, darling. Yeah.
What's in my basket?
Sorry.
- [CHECKOUTS BEEPING]

Thanks.

[TENSE MUSIC]
Hey, hey!
Have you seen a woman?
Brunette but older.
And I left my baby with her.
- You left your baby?
- No. No, she has my baby.
She's taking care of my baby. I
Natasha.
- verything okay?
- Hey. Hey.
[NATASHA PANTING]
Oh gosh.
I just went to get some
bread from another aisle.
I didn't mean to
Okay. You know what, we'll just
call this a misunderstanding.
But Jen, in future, when you are
looking after other people's kids,
you don't just play it by ear.
Right, I'll certainly bear that in mind.
Hey.
Hey.
Oh yeah.
[JACK] What else have we got? A frog.
Daddy loves frogs. Daddy loves frogs.
Look at the time.
[TENSE MUSIC]
You keep reading.
Baby.
[TENSE MUSIC]
[DISTANT TALKING]
Don't worry. Don't worry.
Come on, come on through.
She's through here. Tasha,
you've got a visitor.
Surprise!
Oh my God.
[TASHA LAUGHS]
- Jack, Sam. Sam, Jack.
- Yes.
- Yeah. Yeah. We met at the door.
- Yeah. Good to meet you.
- Jack.
- Finally.
Yeah, you too.
Just like sealed.
And throwing krill.
You that's what you
That? Throwing krill
- That's nothing to do with me.
- Instead of having
- That's nothing to do with me.
- It's nice to meet you.
Right. I'm gonna go
and grab a quick sauna
- and leave you two to just catch up.
- Yeah, yeah.
Listen, don't let me get
in the way. Seriously.
Thank you for your hospitality.
No, no, no. It's no worries.
There's wine in the fridge if you want.
[TENSE MUSIC]
Did he say say sauna?
[TASHA LAUGHS]
- I wanted to surprise you.
- Oh, right.
Well, I'm here now.
You said you were lonely.
If I'd asked you, you
would've put me off.
Sam, he's not an idiot.
He knows you don't like him.
You didn't come to the wedding.
Wait, what?
He's not an idiot?
Stop it.
Oh, come on. He doesn't care.
I'm here now. Can't hate him that much.
Yeah, but you could have texted.
It's the middle of the night.
A bloke coming to see me.
Okay. It's not the
middle of the night, Mum.
You need to get out more.
And plus, have you seen
his face? That beard?
He doesn't care about the competition.
Hey, at least your ex-husband
isn't showing up. Right?
- All right. That's it.
- Too far? Was that too far?
- You're out. You're out.
- Okay. I'll go.
I'll go.
Seriously though, what's
it like being rich?
- [GENTLE MUSIC]
- I'm not rich.
Sure. Okay, Drake.
Do you wanna show me the
rest of the house or
Where's your priceless
collection of Birkin bags?
- Upstairs.
- Don't joke.
- You being serious?
- Yeah. I'm dead serious.
They're so expensive.
Still doesn't like me, does he?
Sam?
[JACK LAUGHS]
At least he's honest.
How'd things go with him.
Are you patching things up?
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Kind of.
You know, it's really
nice to see an old face.
The NCT girls are great, but
you know, they're mum friends.
And he doesn't hate you.
He's just protective,
like an older brother.
Or a judgmental aunt.
Yeah. I see it. I see it.
[TENSE MUSIC]
Listen, I know it's not ideal,
but they need me to go
to New York next week.
Just Thursday to Sunday.
So I was thinking I could
get you and Emily a ticket
if you don't want to
stay here on your own.
I mean, obviously I'll be
busy but we'll have the nights
and you two can explore
the city in the day.
I don't know that it's a good idea
taking her on a
long-haul flight just yet.
Because I wanna get her
into a proper routine
in case we start nursery soon.
Wow. Yeah, no, you're right.
Don't wanna throw her off her sleep.
Oh, you don't mind me
going though, do you?
Uh-uh.
Listen, I spoke to Jen
after the christening
and I explained everything.
And she won't be coming around anymore.
[TENSE MUSIC]
Thanks for this, Sam. I appreciate it.
- It's all right.
- Oh.
Oh. Oh.
Oh, she wants her rabbit.
Damn. Rabbit is upstairs.
- I will just
- No, no, no.
I'll get her. Him. Where is he?
- In her room.
- In her room. Right. Cool.
- Got it.
- Yeah.
[TENSE MUSIC]
[[SAM PANTS]
Oh.
[TENSE MUSIC]
Sorry. Right under the bed.
[TASHA] Always under the bed.
[KEYPAD BEEPS]
[BABY PANTING]
You got your rabbit now. Are you happy?
Watch this.
[BUTTON BEEPS]
[GATE BUZZING]
Oh, mate. What are you?
Some mastermind villain?
Wish I had a garage.
[GENTLE MUSIC]
[SAM] What, so he goes away a lot, yeah?
Does that bother you?
Yeah, obviously.
I miss him.
It was much worse straight
after she was born.
Yeah.
What does he actually do?
- He's a media executive.
- No. Yeah. I know that.
You told me that.
What does he actually do?
Ah, very funny.
Not sure I was trying to be.
Do you guys ever talk
about what you wanna do?
You know, jobs? Applying for things?
- Not yet.
- Why?
Why? Does he not know
it's important to you?
No, Sam, it's not him. It's me.
I just
I don't know.
I don't want to leave here just yet.
It doesn't feel right.
All right. Fair enough.

Valpolicella Classico, '97.
There are a few bottles

Wedding wine.
Our wedding.
It's aged remarkably well.
- All things considered.
- Jen.
How the hell did you even get in here?
You used to be my friend ♪
I used to live here.
Don't move.

You're always running late ♪
So why ♪

You know, you can't just come in here.
This is crazy behavior.
I could call the police.
I'm sure you could.
Jack told me to keep keys.
You know, case of emergency.
Right.
And what is your emergency?
You're good.
You know, he's not even here.
Yes. I know. New York.
I just spoke to him.
I couldn't find some
documents in my flat.
So I assumed that they must be here.
And ta-da, here they are
Jack told me to let myself
in if you weren't home.
I've had a real morning
of it with my accountant.
Lovely HMRC are saying
that I owe thousands in tax,
which I obviously don't have so
Jen.
You could have called. I
thought we'd been burgled.
I didn't know you had
a friend with a car.
I heard you outside.
It's funny, Jack didn't mention him.
If I'd known you had male company,
I'd have got him to help me in the loft.
He's an old friend.
Not that it's any of your business.
I want for nothing more ♪
Jen, I need you to go. Now, please.
Than you to fall apart ♪
Oh, fine.
And mend my broken heart ♪
So why ♪
Word to the wise though,
if there is something going
on with him, be careful.
Jack'll find out and
you know his temper.
Excuse me?
Oh, I'm sure it's completely harmless
with you and your friend.
If you don't go right
now, I'm gonna call Jack
and tell him exactly what you're doing.
But will it catch your eye ♪
Relax. I'm leaving.
To see me walk away ♪
It's a shame Sam's gone.
Could've given me a ride home.
He's pretty easy on the
eyes. I wouldn't be surprised.
- How do you know Sam's name?
- What?
Jack must have brought him
up after the christening.
You know when we had that talk.
One about giving you space?
I'm assuming that was your idea.
He wasn't around then.
[TENSE MUSIC]
- What?
- Sam wasn't around
when Jack spoke to you
after the christening.
Have you two been speaking since then?
No.
No.
Perhaps I bumped into him outside or
Are you following me?
In the supermarket, you
just happened to be there?
Excuse me?
[TENSE MUSIC]
I think I'm gonna leave.
I think you should, and I'm
gonna need those keys back now.
[TENSE MUSIC]
Fine. Here.
You need to stop all of this, Jen.
Seriously. You need to leave us alone.
Oh, you have no idea
what you're talking about.
You know, when you talk to Jack,
tell him I can't do this anymore.
[TENSE MUSIC]
It's all gone on for too long.
What has?
All of this.
[TENSE MUSIC]
[JACK] She said what?
Why didn't you call me
as soon as it happened?
Sh!
Because you were working
and I was dealing with it.
I changed the locks,
the alarm, everything.
What did she mean?
I don't know.
I haven't seen her since the
christening, you know that.
But she said you'd just spoken.
You told her to come by the
house and get her things.
Well, yeah, I spoke to
her briefly on the phone.
And yes, I told her to come over.
She said it was urgent.
I expected her to knock on the door,
like a normal fucking human being.
But she said that you gave
her a key for emergencies.
Something about money
problems or unpaid tax.
She told you about that.
Wow. Right.
Well, yeah, she's really worried,
this tax thing's gonna hit her hard.
[TASHA LAUGHS]
I don't care, Jack.
She was in my house, drunk.
She showed up at our
supermarket the other week.
She lives fucking miles away.
Now she's saying that she knows
Sam or at least recognizes him.
So either she's hanging around
here, staking the place out,
or you're lying to me
about talking to her.
I'm sorry?
Well, tell me I'm imagining things.
[TENSE MUSIC]
Have you spoken to her or been
to see her since your chat?
No.
And no.
Now listen, I don't know
what she's playing at,
but whatever it is,
it has to stop. Okay?
But if she says she knows Sam,
that's nothing to do with me.
You're gonna have to talk to him.
Fuck!
[TENSE MUSIC]
Right. I'm gonna talk to her again.
And I'm gonna be clearer.
Because maybe the way we've been
the way I've been has given
her the wrong impression.
But if she's come around
expecting anything,
it just has to stop.
It has to.
And if it doesn't, then
we'll have to address it more seriously.
[TENSE MUSIC]
Call the police?
If you don't feel safe.

[CAR WHOOSHING]

- [JACK] Is that my car?
- Yeah.
All right. 30 seconds.

Okay. Okay. Okay.

- You've got my number.
- I do. I'll call.
So, I mean, any problem, big or small.
Thank you for coming
at such late notice.
Oh. No worries.
[BABY CRIES]
I've got her. You go be with your mom.
I hope she feels better soon.
Yeah.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
Bye.
