Fooze: Ball or treat?
Come on, Bruv... choose.
- Lydia: That's stupid.
- (whining)
- Yes, Bruv. Master of his own destiny.
- (door opens)
- He is not, though, is he?
- Uh,
- Bruv chose the ball.
- Lydia: Yeah,
from a list of two
options that you gave him.
- (baby babbling)
- Hm.
- Customer: Can I have a coffee?
- No, we're closing.
Customer: Please,
just five minutes.
Um, I should go bounce
'cause there's this
thing I've gotta do.
- See ya tomorrow, Fooze.
- Legendary.
Come on, Bruv.
Cute baby.
- (Bruv barking)
- No, Bruv! Bruv.
(eerie music playing)
Here you go.
It's the end of the
day, so whatever.
Don't go.
I've got to close the kitchen.

Why have I got 17
missed calls from you?
- Did you get my voicemail?
- No one listens to voicemail.
What's going on?
Why is there a baby here?
Right?!
I need coffee.
Don't touch it.
I've had the weirdest
24 hours, Reets.
It's been a madness.
(grinding coffee beans)

(grinding stops)
Skinny or full-fat?
Reets?
(baby babbles)
Reets? Rita!
- I told you not to touch it!
- What...
This was a bad idea.
You know what, Reets?
I've got this. You
should just go home.
Why don't I take
him out for a walk?
You can wash, have a nap.
That's not a good idea.
We'll have a fun time
together, won't we?
Yes! Yes, we will.
Spend some fun time
with Auntie Rita.
It's good to get some
practice in before mine comes.
What?
You can trust me with your baby.
This isn't my baby, Reet.
- (chuckles) Okay.
- No, not okay.
It's not my baby.
Well... it is.
Are you all right?
If you're struggling,
there's no shame
in admitting it.
- We are all here for you.
- Stop, stop, stop, stop.
(slowly): This isn't my baby.
This isn't funny, Tash.
No, I know it's not.
- Do you want me to call anyone?
- No, because I called you.
I just meant, like...
Go on...
Go on, just say it.
I'm not annoyed.
You should call your sister.
Whew. Better out than in.
I think Bobbi would be a
good person to have around.
Cool. I don't.
Okay, we're going for a walk.
You need a shower.
No, Rita. It's not safe.
- Give me the baby.
- Every time I let myself
- get sucked up into your drama.
- Give me the baby.
- Give me the baby.
- You drag me over here in a total state,
- and then don't want my help.
- Rita, give me the baby.
In case you haven't
noticed, I've got a lot...
- Rita, give me the baby.
- On my plate, too.
- Rita, give me...
- You're being mental!
Give me the f*ckin' baby!
I'm sorry, Reets,
about all that.
I don't know why I flipped.
I think it's just, you know?
'Cause I'm fine.
Batshit, but fine.
- Maybe, you sh...
- Sorry.
Says... are you free on Friday
for pizza and Jagermeister?
Oi, get your own best mate.
Listen, I'll call
Bobbi. Promise.
You know what?
I'm just gonna wait
with you till she comes.
Seriously, can
you just f*ck off?
Okay.
Yeah.

- Mags (on phone): Hey.
Mags... stupid question.
I don't have a baby, do I?
- Mags?
- Mags: I thought you were calling to apologize.
- What?
- Mags: About poker night.
- Friday? You were an assh*le?
- Yes! Poker night.
I didn't have a baby
on poker night, did I?
'Cause I don't have
a baby... right?
Mags?
Mags: I honestly don't have
time for your weirdness today.
Look... I'm going
to the park later.
If you're puttin'
him down for a nap,
we could meet up in an hour.
Tash?
Natasha?

Bruv, come here.
Here, Bruv. Get the ball.
Get the ball, Bruv.
Go on... Yeah, good boy.
I'm a friend of Lydia's.
Yeah, they just told
us this morning.
Lydia was a empress.
May she rest in power.
I got promoted, but the
truth is, management sucks.
I just feel like I'm kinda part
of the problem now, you know?
Okay. Just, like, looking
for... her family.
I've got something of hers
that I need to return.
She didn't really
speak to her family.
(door opens) - Yeah, they
were really bad racists.
Natasha: Okay, what
about a partner?
Nah, she was married
to her books.
This is actually urgent.
I'm looking for someone.

Your baby pooped.

The changing room's at the back.
Well, I can't do it. I
haven't even got a nappy.
I've got a spare one.

Hey.
What's the protocol here?
Can I change your nappy?
Okay, I suppose
you'll let me know.

Hey, Bruv, man.
His mother rejected
him as a pup,

You're afraid I'm gonna
leave you, aren't you?
Yeah, Bruv, I'd never do that.
Here... ball. Get the ball.
Yeah, last time I saw Lydia
was, like, a month ago
before that crazy
shit went down.
What crazy shit?
Fooze: A customer choked
to death on a cookie.
Lydia found her.
Totally bleaked her out.
She stopped coming to work,
stopped answering her calls,
cut off all her friends.
Next thing you know, she...
f*ck!
Well... you know.
You still got shit on
