Casualty (1986) s28e13 Episode Script

Badge of Honour

This is me you're talking to, has something happened? Sam was telling me about your rough patch.
What have you told Iain? Nothing.
You scrub up really well, you're going to knock 'em dead.
What are you doing? What does it look like I'm doing? The girl that got away.
Control from Sierra Eight-Five.
On scene now.
Over.
I bet somebody just left their keys in the door.
They're all curtain-twitchers round here.
Suits me.
I could use an easy morning.
Have you been burning the candle at both ends again? At least I've got a life.
When we going to see you out of uniform, eh? All right.
How about tonight? You and me.
PC Drummond! Are you asking me out? Just a drink, don't get too excited.
Careful, I might hold you to that.
Ladies first? Ever the gent.
I'll take the back.
Hello? Police.
Anybody here? RADIO OPERATOR (UNINTELLIGIBLE) HE SHOUTS Freddie? When did you get out? Give me a break here.
C'mon, Jack.
Are you being serious? Police! I'm on probation! I'll go back inside! Please! HE GROANS What happened? I'm fine.
Stay here, I've got him.
Em, no.
Leave it! HE YELLS IN PAIN HE YELLS Emma? Emma, can you hear me? Don't move, just, don't move.
Sierra Eight-Five to control.
I need an ambulance right now.
Officer down.
I repeat, officer down.
SIREN Hello? Is it them? What they saying? Sorry, sorry, can you say that again, please? Right.
Will do.
Thank you.
Ta very much.
They've offered me the job.
That's brilliant news, mate! I'm really chuffed for you.
When do you start? They're going to send an email to sort out all the admin.
They're going to let me drive an ambulance! I didn't know we were that desperate.
Behave, you! I said I'd go, didn't I? I don't need you holding my hand.
I got you this interview at the job centre and I'm going to make damn sure you get there.
On time.
How am I going to get there? What's that thing called, seats loads of people, massive wheels? Oh, yeah, the bus.
Yeah, but I want change! What? What do we have? This is Graeme Harford, 14.
He's had a run-in with an errant firework.
He's got some minor burns to his hands and face.
We've treated him with water gel pads and he's had five milligrams of morphine.
GCS 15, pulse 80, sats 98%.
What is it about this time of year? There's fireworks going off morning, noon and night.
We've got two ambulances in for repair, I'm having to split crews just to cope with the extra action.
Cubicle 1, when you're quite finished.
Yes, m'lady.
You two.
I want a full set of obs while I complete my assessment.
Er, we're on the middle-shift.
We've just walked through the door.
So you do work here? Fast as you can.
Who does she think she is? MOBILE BEEPS 'Holby Control to 3006' Do you want to put that away? I'm pairing you with our Norman while I pick up the slack.
He'll meet you outside.
Norman? C'mon, Dix Just bite your tongue and let him play Yoda.
I'll see you this afternoon.
Dr Chao? Can I have a word? How many conversations have we had about your attitude towards the nursing staff? Here was me thinking this was a hospital, not a social club.
Let's use today to silence your critics, shall we? Let them see you can be a team player.
Impress me, I know you can.
And, like they say, if a job needs doing Hello, I'm Iain, I'm a trainee paramedic.
This is? Emma.
Emma Pitney.
Rightho.
Let me take a look.
Hello.
My name's Norman.
Can you hear me? Loud and clear.
Keep the head nice and steady.
What's the story? We got a call about an insecure door.
I took the front, we thought the place was empty.
Try to keep still for me, will ya, Emma, please? Looks like a blunt force injury to the chest.
Suspect blindsided me.
Emma took off after him and by the time I caught up Airway's clear.
Respiratory rate 20.
Can you tell me what happened? He grabbed hold of that spade there.
Lucky swing.
Landed on my back in this heap.
Don't move, I'll be back as fast as I can.
He's ready to be discharged.
If you want to waste any more time on him, you're on your own.
The remarkable Dr Chao making friends as always.
Well, she's clearing out patients in record time.
Whatever happened to the old-fashioned idea of quality of care? Stage two of my mentor's master plan.
Really? Martin Ashford, moulding the bright young things of emergency medicine in his own image.
Who'd ever have thought? When did we become the old men? You speak for yourself.
BABY SCREAMS HE KNOCKS THE DOOR BABY COUGHS AND CRIES Ssshhh.
Try to breathe normally through the mask.
Look, is she going to be all right? Hang tight, we're about five minutes away.
Hear that? You'll be back up and dancing in no time.
Move it, will you? Clue's in the siren! Didn't think I'd let you wriggle out of that drink that fast, did you? Took you long enough to ask.
While we're still young, if you'd be so kind? SIREN BABY CRIES Ssshhh.
It's OK.
Look, I'll be two seconds, OK? Just two seconds.
Here.
Deano'll stay with you.
It's OK.
I'll be right back.
This is Emma Pitney, 28 years of age.
Took a heavy blow to the chest from a large spade.
GCS 14, sats 98% despite being on high flow 02.
Pulse 90, BP 120 systolic.
She's had ten of morphine and 500 of saline.
Is this the pre-alert? Maybe I could assist? I think we've got this one covered but you're welcome to observe.
Just observe? Well, it's either that or cubicles.
Stick or twist? OK, let's get her over.
On my count.
One, two, three Hello, my name's Sam, I'm one of the doctor's here.
Airway clear and there's obvious bruising to the chest.
She's breathing shallow, she's in a lot of pain.
BP not yet rising.
Pulse 100.
Let's get her another ten of morphine.
Rita, let's get another line in and take a venous blood gas.
Yep.
Airway restricted throughout.
Right, we'll need a CT chest and abdomen.
I'll call the radiologist.
Let's give these guys room to work.
No, Jack I'm right here.
I'm not going anywhere.
Hey, stop! Where are you going! THEY STRUGGLE OI! Stop! Stop him! HE GRUNTS AND GROANS HE GASPS OK, back down.
One, two, three.
What's the verdict? There's no sign of any further injuries so we'll send you for your scan and see where you're at.
Jack I'm still here.
IC1 male.
About five-ten.
Early 20s, brown hair Forget about him.
He's long gone.
No, his ankle.
Twisted it when he got away Can this wait? Looked quite bad.
Get it on the radio.
Just lie still.
I'll handle it.
So much for an easy morning.
She will be all right, won't she? Yeah, listen, I've seen Dr Nicholls patch up lads, who've had both legs blown off by an IED.
Trust me, she couldn't be in better hands.
Jamie? Yep.
This is Jack Drummond.
He's got a bit of a cut on his head there.
Could you look after him? Not a problem.
Cheers, mate.
Listen.
Thank you.
For what you did out there.
Both of you.
Come, my young apprentice.
Duty calls.
Oi! Oi, come here! Don't make me get security! Come Ow! I've heard of 'em running rings around you but that's ridiculous.
It is so not funny.
Why don't you take a break? Celebrate the good news? I see your marathon training paid off well then.
Oh, really, and how's yours going, for the fun run you're supposed to be doing? You're going to have more than a couple of coked-up kids to deal with when you're out there in the big bad world.
Sure you can cope with that? Oi! Come back! All right, mate, my name's Iain.
This ray of sunshine's Norman.
We're paramedics.
I've got to get back I can take that for you.
No! She needs it! And who might "she" be? Kaci, my daughter, look, she's sick.
Look, it's only a few quid I can pay for it.
Been on the rob all morning, have you? What you doing?! Steady.
Let's concentrate on this knee first, shall we? Sorry Does it hurt anywhere else? No! My daughter, she's burnin' up, you've got to get to her.
All right, mate.
Give us the address and we'll call it in.
No! She's in the car.
I thought I was only going to be a few seconds.
You've got to be kidding.
Green Golf, just parked up there.
B reg.
Please.
I've got it.
It's not too late to pull out, is it? I mean, er they haven't even sent the confirmation letter yet.
Or I haven't even handed in my notice here.
You got the job? Congratulations! Yeah, well, don't go popping any champagne corks just yet.
Oh.
So, is there going to be a porter's job going or not? I don't know.
Remains to be seen.
You got someone in mind, have you? What have we got? This is Callum Bradey, aged 20.
Fell from a reasonable height, but his landing was broken by debris.
Not KO'd.
He's got a shard of wood embedded above the back of his right knee.
GCS 15, pulse 83, sats 96%.
Good distal perfusion.
We've started him on entonox.
OK, thanks, we'll take it from here.
Hi, I'm Dr Chao, what's your name? Can you give us a minute, please? Can you follow my finger.
What's she doing? Ash, do you want to tell her, or shall I? OK, Lily.
Just slow it down for a moment.
Where's my baby? I have to see her! You're not going anywhere.
All right, we'll find her, don't worry.
Can we get some help over here? Tom! Yep, coming! What's happened? We're not sure.
She was left unattended in a car for 20 to 30 minutes, but apparently she was already sick.
She's burning up.
Temp's 39 with a marked inspiratory stridor and drooling.
Pulse 140.
Sats 90% on oxygen.
Resps were 60 but now falling.
Let's get ready to intubate.
I need to get in there! Ash, we need you.
Right.
Ah, OK, Lily, this is your chance to shine.
Don't forget teamwork.
Not a problem.
I've got it covered.
Start with the x-rays.
I'll be back in a bit.
Soonest will be best.
Need a hand? I haven't got much of a view.
The epiglottis is huge.
PICU are on their way.
What are you thinking? It looks like classic epiglottitis but she should be covered for HiB, though.
All right.
Yeah, I got it.
Can I have the tube? And bag.
OK.
Placement's good.
Let's connect to the ventilator and tie off the tube.
And can we get a chest X-ray, please, Robyn? How's she doing? The scan showed up a bicortical fracture of the sternum but nothing more serious than that.
We are going to keep her in under observation but we should be able to send her home tomorrow.
Can I leave this with you? If anything changes, give me a shout.
Will do.
Where's Jack? I left him with a nurse in cubicles, he'll be along pretty soon.
They seem pretty close.
You should have seen them in the back of the ambulance.
You know what it's like when you're on the front line with someone.
Yeah.
I remember.
What's up with you today? You seem like you're only half here.
I'm fine.
I just had a bit of bad news this morning, that's all.
It's nothing, really Norman says if you don't hurry up he'll defibrillate your danglies.
I might've spiced that up a little bit.
I'll tell you later.
OK.
These mostly look superficial.
You got lucky.
Yeah.
Lucky.
Sorry, Jamie.
I've got these two visitors here who insisted on seeing your patient.
Yeah, that's fine, I'm almost done.
PC Drummond? I'm DCI Morton, this is DS Roche.
Now I understand you and your partner came under attack earlier? I wouldn't say "attack" exactly.
There was a struggle.
Suspect resisted arrest, fled on foot.
Emma, PC Pitney, came off worst.
How is she? I was just about to check.
Hold on, I won't be a minute.
Well, maybe you could give me a description while the nurse finishes? I didn't see.
He jumped me from behind and bolted.
You must've caught a glimpse to know it was a "he"? IC1 male, I think.
He was er average.
That's about all I can tell you.
I'm sure your partner will be able to tell us more.
It's probably better if I go in first, if it's OK with you? See if she's OK raking over it all.
Sure.
SIREN Ah! Everything all right here? Perfect.
I can't see any fractures from the fall, so my main concern is this foreign body.
I need to see my girl.
The doctors are working on her, Callum.
The second we have any news, I'll let you know, all right? What I'd like to know is, why you were trying to shoplift medicine instead of bringing her into the hospital? I didn't know she was sick.
I was going to take her down the coast, show her the sea.
Maybe build a few sand castles, just me and her.
But then she just got worse.
Does Kaci's mum know that she's here? She doesn't treat her right.
I mean, you should have seen her this morning when I It was all planned and that but I'll put in a call in to social services, let them clear this up.
No, you can't.
Please! Can you just keep an eye on his pain relief but don't do anything else without Ash.
Understood? Yes.
How you feeling? Like someone used my chest for batting practice.
DCI Morton's taking over.
There's going to be an investigation.
Well, did you give her my description? The doctor says not to be worrying about anything to do with work.
Just concentrate on getting back on your feet.
We're still on for tonight, remember? As far as I'm concerned, I'm still on duty.
How about you? HE GASPS Hold up! Easy.
That looks painful.
Listen, I'm late for an appointment.
I just have to get off, I'll be all right.
How did you do this? Oh, I went for a run, tripped over me own feet.
Embarrassing or what? This looks like a nasty sprain at best, more likely a fracture.
It's not so bad.
I'll be fine.
I'd say hospital's the best place for you.
Can you get the chair please, Iain? Er, no, er, honestly Look, mate, it's your prerogative but we do tend to let the police know if people refuse in suspicious circumstances.
You wouldn't want to waste their time an' all, would you? Course not.
Whatever you think's best.
There's that Dunkirk spirit.
Oh, my jacket I've got it.
X-rays show the foreign bodies to be fairly deeply embedded but I'm confident we can handle it.
Let's not dive in at the deep end.
The proximity of the popliteal is a concern and we could do with more detailed imaging.
Let's get a surgical review just to be on the safe side.
Seriously? F2s rush in where surgeons fear to tread.
Get hold of the Orthopaedic Reg and wait for their decision.
I'm sure you can do that while I go and talk to the baby's mother? Do me a favour will you? Anything.
Crack a smile.
I'm serious! You get even uglier when you're moody.
Carry on like that and you can forget about our date.
Oh, so it IS a date now, is it? We've been dancing around this for too long.
OK, I have.
Because of the job, working together and that.
I know.
Em you and me Emma? Emma? Emma? What's happening?! She's tachycardic and barely responsive.
Looks like she's in VT.
We've lost the pulse.
Let's start CPR and get the defib.
And let's get Zoe in here! Shannon? Yeah, erm, it's my daughter, Kaci? I got a call from the social worker.
Yes.
I know.
This was brought in with her.
Please tell me she's OK.
She's stable.
She's on a ventilator at the moment to help her breathing.
Oh, my God! I've got to see her! Not Not just yet, I'm afraid.
We should be able to get in to see her in a few moments' time.
They said Callum had her, he must've snatched her! What's he done? He says there was an arrangement.
Yeah, he's done this before.
He thinks he can just turn up and have her whenever.
Then I get this call out of nowhere saying they're in hospital! You mean you hadn't noticed she was missing? I overslept.
I've been working nights.
You know, I'm trying to bring up a kid single-handed and he just swoops in and takes her and she's OK, try not to panic.
I'll go and ask when we can get in to see her, OK? Yeah.
What happened? VT arrest.
Must be a cardiac contusion.
She was fine just now! That's two minutes.
Let's get a milligram of adrenaline in.
Her dad's on his way over.
He's a senior police officer and I don't want to give him bad news.
Still in VT.
Adrenaline going in.
OK, charging.
Done.
Everyone clear.
You should wait outside.
I'm not leaving her.
Shocking How's she doing? Temperature's improving, so we're just waiting on PICU for a bed now.
All the symptoms suggest haemophilus influenza B which I don't understand.
Surely she would have been vaccinated? Yeah, exactly.
Mother's here.
She's anxious to see her daughter.
Erm.
Let's wait for a few minutes, and I think we need to talk to our young mum and dad.
OK.
So, how did you do this jogging in the park? Ran into Mo Farah.
Had to keep up, didn't I? Right, I'll have to send you to X-ray, cos it could be fractured.
How long is that going to take? Depends how busy they are.
Listen, I left my jacket in the ambulance before, someone said they'd gone to get it but they've not come back.
It'll probably be in the ambulance station.
Don't go anywhere.
Is that supposed to be funny? Guess not.
What's wrong with her? That's what we're trying to determine.
Ash, I have requested a surgical review as per your instructions but AAU's backlogged.
So no change there.
So, I thought you and I could make a start on Can we? One thing at a time.
Why don't you help us get to the bottom of THIS first? Right, can we just establish some background here? Now I take it you're not together? We never were.
Are we hell.
One night's about all we lasted.
Proper romantic.
Couldn't get away fast enough when I told him I was pregnant.
That ain't true! So, who does Kaci normally live with? Me.
And she ain't going nowhere.
You said I could see her! If you paid the maintenance you'd been promising.
And guess what? I'm trying my best here.
You were so out of it, anything could've happened! All right, enough, this isn't getting us anywhere, is it? Your social worker's coming in this afternoon.
Let's see what he has to say.
You can forget about seeing her again after this! Your name ain't even on the birth certificate.
Far as I'm concerned, you're just some random.
Still in refractory VT.
OK, how are we doing? 39 minutes.
Shocks every two and a total of ten milligrams of adrenaline and 300 of amiodarone.
You have to keep trying! OK, complete this cycle and we'll do a pulse check.
No, nothing.
I think it would be kinder to let her go now.
Are we agreed? No! There's always a chance! After everything you've done, you can't just give up! Please! I understand this must be difficult.
What do you think you're doing?! One last try.
I can do this.
Stop! Iain, stop it.
Iain.
Iain! Get out of here now.
Time of death, 12:13.
No, she can't be.
She I'm sorry.
Somebody better tell Dixie to have a word with him otherwise I'm I'll talk to him.
Listen, they did everything they could.
I saw how close you two were.
She wasspecial.
Always there to get my back, day in, day out.
I trusted her with my life.
Have you ever had someone like that? Yeah.
I have.
And I know what it's like to lose them.
It's my fault.
I was in there first.
If I'd stopped him when I had the chance, then none of this would've happened.
Look, I probably shouldn't be telling you this but What? I brought in a patient earlier.
He had a bad ankle injury, wasn't too keen on coming to hospital.
Seemed to me like he matched your partner's description.
He's here? Now? Ah, er, Dixie.
Have you got a sec? For you, Mac, I could even spare a minute.
You know about this ECA training.
Um how full-on is it? What's the matter, I thought you were well up for it? Oh, no, no You'll be fine.
Don't worry, it's not the Krypton Factor! I was just wondering if you could give me a quick crash-course later? Put me through my paces, let me know what I'm in for? '3006 to control.
' Tell you what, come to the ambulance station at the end of the shift and we'll see what we can do, all right? Thank you.
Where's Iain? Ready when you are, Kathleen.
Wait till I get my hands on him! I'll find Jamie, get the OK for you to talk to him, just stay here.
Jack? What you doing here? She's dead.
Do you realise that? My partner is dead.
What? No, she can't be.
You're a murderer, Freddie.
No, I didn't mean to hurt anybody, I just had to get away.
What would Dad think of you now, eh? It never bothered neither of you before.
You said if I pleaded guilty, I'd be out in six months.
It's been a year! And where were you, eh? Right, that's it.
I can't cover for you any more.
Please, wait, wait.
Look, I didn't mean for any of this to happen.
But you can't say anything.
You won't say anything.
Not if you want to hold on to your career.
Sorry.
Can I just finish up here? You can do all the police stuff later.
The medics gave me the news.
I'm really sorry.
How are you holding up? How do you think? Sorry, ma'am.
I think you should call it a day.
We can talk later.
Yeah.
I don't think I can be here any more.
I'm sorry.
Erm, don't be.
Go home.
We'll be in touch.
What did she say? Is that your man? Oh, yeah.
Where would he go? He was making a fuss about his jacket earlier.
Could he have stashed something in there he's stolen? Evidence, you mean? Where would it be? There was a slight delay in getting a place on the paediatric intensive care unit but she'll be on the way any second now.
She's so tiny We've diagnosed her with epiglottitis, which is usually caused by a bacterial infection.
Has she had all her vaccinations? Yeah.
Course.
It's important we have all the facts.
Why is everyone blaming me? I'm not taking sides.
We just trying to do what's best for your daughter.
I'm sure that's what you want.
HE SHOUTS I need some help here! Today would be nice! I can't stay here! I've got to find Kaci! We're still waiting for a surgeon to come down and make a decision on your leg.
Well, how long's it going to be? Listen, I'll chase them up provided you stay still.
Go.
Or maybe I can find a woodchipper you'd like to feed your leg into? Since you seem determined to exacerbate your injuries.
Just fix it so I can be with my girl.
That's all I need.
I'd like nothing better but it's been made abundantly clear that a surgeon needs to decide whether it's necessary to take you into theatre.
Can't you just do it now? You're a doctor, aren't you? How hard can it be? Listen.
My kid could be dying a few metres away.
If you don't take this out, right here, right now, I'll do it for you.
I'll drag myself over there even if it kills me.
Do ya get it? I suppose Under the circumstances And you know what they say, if a job needs doing It's over, Freddie.
You don't have to do this.
We can both get off.
I can't.
Not after what you've done.
Are you going to put your own brother in handcuffs? You're not going to stop me.
You care too much about your precious career.
What's going on here? Are you just going to let him go? Freddie Drummond.
I am arresting you for the murder of Emma Pitney.
You do not have to say anything.
Get back! Ahh!! HE SCREAMS I can't feel nothing.
That's the local anaesthetic.
You're sure you know what you're doing? For the last time, yes.
It's too tight.
I need to extend the wound.
Get me a scalpel.
Maybe Ash should be here? You're not assisting Dr Ashford, you're assisting me.
I thought you were supposed to be supervised on things like this.
I spoke to him and it's fine.
Besides, I'm in the middle of this now.
So, unless you want to explain to the charge nurse why you abandoned a patient mid-procedure, I need you to fetch that scalpel.
Please? The brachial artery's been cut.
We need to get him back to the ED fast.
I need a response kit.
There'll be one in the ambulance.
What are you waiting for? Come on! Oi, Jack! There's a bleed! I'll call Ash.
There's no time.
I'll have to clip it.
Quickly.
Hold on.
That's a venous bleed, you haven't hit an artery.
OK.
We can handle that.
Good work.
What have you done? Nothing.
You're fine.
I just need to irrigate the wound and suture.
Just get on with it.
Fine.
I need a litre of saline.
Nurse Collier? Are you still with us? Yes.
Hang tight, Freddie, I'm not letting you get off that easy.
Hello! Anyone seen Dix? Mac, Mac, I need you.
What, me? I need you to get me a response kit in an ambulance that's roadworthy.
Keys will be in the ignition.
All right, Freddie, stay with me.
Coming! Nice one, Mac.
OK, stay with me.
Brilliant.
Right, I need a combat tourniquet.
Which? That one there.
There! That's it, cheers.
Right, Mac, what you're going to do, is I need to get a trolley and we'll lift him into the ambulance and then I want you to stay in the back with him and keep this tight.
Shouldn't you, er? No, no, I've got to drive.
It's not far round to the ED.
Hey, Mac, you can do this, yeah? Right, OK.
Right.
HE SCREAMS Right.
The good news is that we've managed to stabilise your daughter.
Thank God.
She's started off on some antibiotics and moved her up to intensive care.
What's the bad news? Well, we've checked her records and it seems she missed two crucial vaccinations.
Which means she was vulnerable to infection because she wasn't properly immunised.
Ah, without these she'd have been susceptible to diphtheria, meningitis, amongst others.
You dopey cow! What's wrong with you? It's not my fault! How could you forget these things?! All right, finger-pointing isn't going to help.
I've had to work a job I don't even get paid for so they don't take away the child support.
Don't see you supporting us.
I've been trying but you won't let me near her! We don't need fluffy toys and fairy tales! We need to pay the bills! Plenty of people get by without messing up.
You're not fit to be a mother! That baby might be dead if it weren't for me.
Now can I see her? First things first, let's get this piece of furniture out of your knee.
It's all right.
It's all done.
May I? Did a surgeon come down and do this? No, the other doctor.
Young lady.
This is Freddie Drummond, 23.
Got a stab wound to the brachial from a Stanley knife.
Lost a lot of blood.
What happened? Incident at the ambulance station.
Couldn't give him any meds en route, rolling call.
It's lucky Big Mac here was on hand to help us out.
Good one.
I think we've got it from here.
Right.
Sounds like you're a hero! Did I just hear that right? My name's Sam, one of the doctors here.
Can you hear me? Where's Jack? Keep your eye on this one.
He's a murder suspect.
OK, Sam, what have we got? We've got an incision to the brachial artery.
Right, OK, once we've got the lines in, can we cross match six units and, Robyn, contact the vascular surgeon, please? C-A-T, just like the old days.
Good work, Corporal.
Don't think we need you in resus! Right, can we get some fluids in while we're waiting for the bloods? The social worker's here and he's asking for you.
What's the point? Callum should just have her.
He's right.
I ain't fit to be her mother.
There's all sorts of different families and we all just muddle through whatever way we can.
Don't get me wrong, I love her.
I love her more than any of you lot would give us credit for.
But seeing her like that knowing it's because of me Wait, just come back inside.
Yes, you made a mistake but the important thing is you're prepared to do something about it.
There was gallons of blood but Iain said if I hadn't been there, the bloke might not have made it.
What were you doing over there in the first place? Ah, well, Dixie was going to give me the inside track on my ECA training but after today maybe I don't need it.
I'm just going to, um What was all that back there? I'm sorry, I just couldn't handle it.
You've been covering for your brother? No.
It was a split second decision.
I couldn't have known You're not fit to wear that uniform.
Right, your DCI's still in there.
You tell her the truth or I'll do it for you.
I mean it.
Can I at least see Freddie first? All right.
I'm sorry that I dragged you into all of this.
I'm sorry for everything.
There you are.
I've been hearing all sorts.
Are you OK? I screwed up big time, Dix.
You're telling me! You don't ever wander off on your own and miss a shout.
And Norman's bending my ear and Zoe's on the warpath about you messing about in resus I'm sorry.
It won't happen again.
Right.
I don't know what's going on but you can always talk to me.
You know that, don't you? Yeah.
Yeah, I know.
OK, get the ambulance cleaned up and then get yourself home.
Straighten your head out.
I'm going to send you up to the vascular surgeons.
Once they're happy, the police would like to talk to you.
Emma she meant something to me and I stood in this room and I watched her die today.
And here you are all set to make a full recovery.
How is that fair? I'll leave you out of it, right? Say you never knew Nah.
It's too late.
For both of us.
Jack! I thought I sent you home.
I know.
Rumours are flying all over.
Have you got a suspect in there? Yeah.
Freddie.
Freddie Drummond.
I hope you've got an ironclad explanation for all this.
Right, well, it's obvious neither of you are going to make the first move, so I'll do it for you.
Don't you think it's time you stopped worrying about who got the last word and thought about your daughter? I don't want to fight no more.
It's not good for her.
I know.
I'm going to put your name on the birth certificate.
I'll sign a form or whatever.
You'll always be her dad.
From now on, things're going to be different.
I'm going to provide for her.
You'll see.
What is this dorky thing anyway? Deano the dinosaur.
Do you want to go in and see her? Yeah.
We never did finish our conversation.
Iain, come on! Zoe was furious at you today in resus.
What's got into you? And please don't say nothing.
You remember Kenny Archer? Back in Helmand? The one with the ears? Oh, yeah, called him Nellie.
Yeah, Nellie.
Trust him with your life.
Top soldier.
Iainhas something happened? This morning, I received this It's from Kenny.
You know exactly what I'm talking about! Callum Bradey's leg! I'm glad you noticed.
Pretty good job, wouldn't you say? That is not the I gave you instructions to wait for the surgical team's decision! Excuse me, can we take this into the office? What if something had gone wrong? What if you'd nicked the popliteal artery? Nothing went wrong! There was a little venous bleeding but I handled it.
Half a centimetre to the left, he could have bled out in cubicles! You do realise that, don't you? I wouldn't have let that happen.
I handled it, saving the NHS time, money and resources.
And it's about time people realised exactly what I'm capable of.
And now we know, don't we? Sorry, can we all calm down a bit? You asked me to impress you.
And you saw him, he is fine.
The ends do not justify the means, Lily! It's about time someone took her down a peg.
I really wish I'd taken a video.
Good news! You got a job? Aha! No.
Better than that.
My horse came in! 7/1, boom! Max! I gave you that money for the bus, not so you could gamble it away.
I know, I know, but think of it this way - I won! Drinks are on me, yeah? That's not the point.
It's time you were earning like the rest of us.
They're advertising for a porter here next week.
Big Mac's job.
I want your CV top of the pile.
No excuses.
So that'll be me pushing old ladies' beds up and down all day? Surely you jest.
He's alive, he's living back home in Birmingham and he wants to see you.
Isn't that good news? I never did tell you what happened to the rest of the lads, did I? We were training up some Afghan civilians.
Helping them set up their own security force.
Hearts and mind and all that.
I mentored this kid, Naveed.
18, 19.
He was a real natural.
Quick learner, eager to please.
Everybody loved Naveed.
Then one day he walked into the camp with 13 sticks of PE4 strapped to his chest.
Took out the whole unit.
Apart from me and Kenny.
We walked away, never saw it coming.
I was the one that trained him.
How can I face Kenny after that? You left, he didn't, right? He kept on fighting, he moved on.
And that's what you need to do, Iain.
You owe it to him, you owe it to all the guys.
Would you? Would you come with me? I don't know I didn't really know him.
I was on my way out by then.
Please.
It might be awkward.
Please.
If it's what you want.
We can go together.
Thanks.
I mean it.
What are friends for? It is an honour, I shan't let you down.
Easily said, Constable.
Harder to prove.
This sideshow is now shut down.
On the grounds of a murder and abduction.
Your friend has designs on a change of location.
Police - get back!
