We're not girls.
It's not a sleep-over.
You're just staying.
And I'll be sleeping over at yours? So, it's a sleep-over.
I never know if you're being serious.

You cook? Yeah.
It's Mum's new thing.
You? Cook? Oh, my baby boy's a demon in the kitchen.
Mum Oh, Clydie's all embarrassed.
Mum! Mum! Mum! Stop it.
Right, boys.
Food! Chinese or pizza? What's wrong with my cooking, exactly? Nothing, I just fancied a takeaway.
Just don't tell your mum.
She goes away for the week and then suddenly you're in charge.
Chinese? You know I don't like it.
Oh, please, let's have Chinese.
We'll have Chinese.

You, erm, going to order that pizza, then? Pass me a menu.
DOORBELL RINGS I'll get it.
Jacob! What are you doing here? Show me your hand.
It's happening, isn't it? STATIC CRACKLES Right, you.
Tell me what's going on.
You picked it up at school.
I saw you.
And you've used it.
It's fading.
Yeah.
Does that when you stop using it.
I'm talking about this like it's normal.
At first, I was just having fun.
You know, I just wanted people to like me.
That's not bad, is it? Jacob, I need to know where you found it.
Back of the school yard.
Where they're putting the pipes in.
It was lying there in the mud.
And it looked really, really nice, so I picked it up.
And then used it on people? It was an accident.
At first.
The more you use it, it's like it talks to you.
It's like, glowing on the pendant, then in your hand and then I think it's evil.
I know someone who can get rid of it.
What are you gonna do? It's gonna be OK.
Yeah, right(!) Mr Smith, I need you.
Ahem Hello? Mr Smith, I need you.

'Night, Mrs Langer! It's Carla, Luke.
'Night, Carla! Night, Carla! Watch it! Clyde? Yeah.
Did you do those? What? The pictures.
Me? No! Well, yeah, all right, but don't tell anyone.
Why not? Mrs Taylor said I had a "natural talent", or something.
So, she's got me doing extra work.
Yeah, it's pretty cool, I guess.
Wish I could draw.
Yeah? Well, maybe I'll teach you, my son.
Thanks, Dad! Oh, sorry.
What? I was trying be funny.

Oh, right.
Don't start.
I never said anything.
It's up to you who you're friends with.
Just be careful with him.
Some people are trouble.
Oof! Nice place.
You've come up in the world, Carla.
What do you want, Dad? I had some business over here.
Thought I'd visit.
That's all right, isn't it? It's been five years.
I live in Germany.
I can't just pop round for tea.
Actually, I could kill for a decent cuppa.
You all right, mate? I'm Paul.
I'm Luke, Clyde's friend.
What the hell are you doing here? Don't you care about Clyde at all? Yeah.
That's why I'm back.
Because you care about me? You know, when you left, at first I pretended it hadn't happened.
That you'd just gone on holiday.
And then I realised, no, you'd gone.
Do you know what I did? I blamed Mum.
I figured she must have done something bad to drive you away.
I messed about at school.
Got into trouble.
I got expelled.
Yeah, all right, I'm sorry, mate.
You're "sorry"? Dad, one minute you were there and the next, I had no dad.
Look, I'm putting me hands up.
I've not been the best father in the world.
But that's why I'm here.
What do you want? To spend some time with ya.
I just want us to get to know each other.
You're still my son.
No.
What? You can't.
He's my kid and I won't have you messing him up.
He's 16, Carla.
He's not a kid.
Dad's right.
I'm not a kid.
I didn't mean it like that, but Clyde, if you wanna see him, then I won't stop you.
It's your choice.
I do.
I wanna talk to him.
Are you sure? Yeah.
Cool! How do you fancy a day out then? Will you be OK here? I don't think I'll be long.
Yeah.
I'll get dressed.
Can you, eh, wait outside, please? I don't want you upsetting Mum.
I'll be here for you.
Afterwards.
Oh, and, by the way, Dad I'm not 16.
I'm 15.
SINISTER WHISPERING STATIC CRACKLES Dad? Yes, love? Have you ever had something, I dunno, bother you? You could be more specific.
There's this report I'm doing for the school newspaper.
And I wanted Sarah Jane's help, but she's away.
Hmm.
So I was wondering - do I wait for her or try and work it out myself? It's you we're talking about.
Of course you'll try and work it out.
Yeah, you're right.
See you later! Where are you going? Oh, I said I'd water Sarah Jane's plants.
See ya! MOBILE RINGS Hi, Rani! You and Clyde meet me at the school now.
Clyde's gone.
Gone? He's gone out with his dad.
His dad? OK, we haven't got time for this now.
I want you in the school field in ten minutes, right? All right.
Remember that park I used to take you to, back in Hounslow.
You used to go on the swings.
Begging for me to push you higher and higher.
Remember? No.
So, do you fancy an ice-cream, or something? What am I saying? You're too old for that.
Oh, I dunno.
What DO you like? Why did you leave us? Sometimes, a bloke and his missus stop getting on.
Me and your mum Well, that's what happened.
I mean, it wasn't your fault.
I never thought it was and don't try that.
You ran off with Auntie Mel.
Yeah.
Yeah, I know.
I didn't do it right.
I messed up.
"Messed up"(!) You ran off to Germany - with Mum's sister.
You left us.

I never forgot you, though.
You going out? Yeah, I'm going to meet Rani.
Ah, she's a lovely girl.
Wanna take sandwiches? I've got ham in the fridge.
No, I'm OK, thanks.
I'm sure Clyde's going to be fine.
You think? Your dad's not around either, is he? No, it's complicated.
It usually is.
Just promise me something.

Something alien.
I wonder how Clyde's doing? He'll be fine, Luke.
He can look after himself, you know.
It's Clyde.

Hope there's nothing else down here.
It would be OK if Mr Smith was working.
Maybe he'll work for me.

Who do you think you are? You take your dad and suddenly my dad's doing what your dad tells him.

It's dangerous.
