Something I wanted to give you.
I do not need Alison to sign a piece of paper.
I got nothing to say to you. Well, I got things to say to you.
What's going on? We can't find Sean.
I don't actually know that Sean's... gone.
Not for sure.
What the chances of finding a body?
HANNAH: If Dad gets involved, it won't end well.
We both know what a temper he's got.
The morning Sean disappeared... where'd you get to?
Morning.
Hi. Sorry - did I miss a message
that you were coming round or something?
I don't need an invitation.
I... I was just thinking -
we should hire our own private company to keep searching.
The police have given up and I've done some investigating...
Is two weeks enough?
Erm... What, for a search?
The title deeds to this place are owned by Dad's company.
If Dad is not able to perform his duties -
and, obviously, he can't -
then I'm sole director.
This is all mine now.
Gravy train has come off the rails.
Sorry.
SHE STUTTERS
Are you kicking us out?
I can maybe stretch it to three weeks.
That's... If you're nice.
That's not fair. Oh!
Exactly how Mum felt when you broke up our family.
I'll take these with me now.
Don't you even care about finding him?
Is this all about money and possessions for you?
Oh, cos you had no idea of his net worth
when you moved in for the kill.
Hey.
I would start looking for something now, if I was you.
Real estate market's pretty tight.
What was that about?
It's like he's taking the bins out.
And you know what? I don't even care about the big, fancy house.
I really don't. But that doesn't mean
Ethan can just kick us out of there.
Does your mum know where you'll go?
No. She's not had any time to think about it.
Yeah, well, he's out of order for sure.
But you're better off out of there. It's one thing after another
with this guy. You think he's done his worst and then... Then what?
He's... He's a snake.
Why, what else has he done?
Nothing. He loves to give us a hard time.
I've told you that. Well, I don't care how much money this kid's got.
Doesn't get to throw his weight around. Not with my family.
What are we gonna do if he boots us?
ALISON SCOFFS
$800 for THIS.
Ugh, if those carpets could talk!
Yeah, they'd be screaming, "Run! Run for your life."
DAN CHUCKLES SOFTLY
Don't worry. Something's gonna turn up.
I'd live in a tent if it meant I could have Sean back.
Sorry.
For what?
Dumping all this on you.
I mean, you're never gonna keep popping around with your...
SHE SIGHS Not a fan of doughnuts?
SHE SOBS
Are they from the little van on the beach?
That's the one.
Sean used to, er, bring them back after he'd had a surf.
Not every day. Just, like...
Just for a treat.
It comes in waves, doesn't it?
You go for a few minutes or hours without thinking about it, then...
The slightest thing can just...
I'll be fine. I'll be fine. And I will, er...
I'll go back the Maya therapy.
You know, I'll call my old boss, see if I can get some work.
You need to give yourself some time.
I haven't got time. I just... I can't...
I can't do that to Hannah.
She went through enough when I split up from her dad.
Or...
..you could stand up to Ethan.
The one thing I know about people like that -
he's not gonna expect it.
No, I can't... I can't fight him.
What would Sean think of his behaviour?
He'd be horrified. Mm.
So don't let him walk all over you.
At the very least, I think you need to get some proper advice,
for you...
..and for Hannah.
Alison. Hey, Philip.
Thanks so much for see...
Are you OK?
SHE EXHALES
Sorry, yeah. Erm...
Yes, I'm trying to be.
Been a bit of a morning.
Come through. Thank you.
I know this is putting you in a tough spot.
And I... I don't care about the money.
I never have.
I just need to know my options.
I can't tell you what's in the will.
Not until seven years have passed
or Sean's declared legally dead.
Yeah, those are words I just...
I never want to hear them. No.
In the meantime, Ethan does have control of the company.
But you can apply to the courts to stay in the house
on the basis of being Sean's wife.
OK.
It COULD go your way.
I just need a bit more time
so I can get myself a job, I can support Hannah.
You know, I was at Sean constantly to sort this details out.
He, erm, called me from the beach that morning.
I wonder if this is what he wanted to talk about.
The... The morning he went missing?
I didn't listen to the message right away. I...
..didn't even connect it to that day until much later.
So...what did the message say?
He just wanted me to call him back.
I informed the police so they could add it to the timeline.
Right. Yeah.
It could have been about anything,
but I know he wouldn't want you to be in this situation.
Look, I know this is the last thing you want to think about, but...
..we need to make a decision now.
Vegan, cruelty-free,
100% zero waste.
Forget the range. It's a waste of time.
A waste of time? Yeah.
I've got Dad's investments to manage now.
I thought they managed themselves.
Well, I'm shaking things up.
So let's cut our losses
and find something else for you to do.
What?
You still be on the payroll.
FOOTSTEPS APPROACH Mate...
..you're on private property.
You're gonna stop messing my daughter and her a mum around, OK?
Get off me! You need to back off!
Take the stupid house back. Oh-ho!
But if you harm them in any way...
Oh, she's sent you around to play bodyguard, has she?
He's broken into my property and he's threatening my son.
Yeah, tell 'em it's Alison's hubby, version one - before she upgraded.
You've been warned. Yes, that's the address.
Er, as quick as you can. Thank you.
Are you OK? Yeah. He's all talk.
Well, we still need to report it.
I'll make sure he's gone.
That family - talk about scum!
You're throwing Alison out of the house?
Yeah, I gave her notice. She's just lost her husband.
Yeah, AKA her payday.
Maybe, um...
Maybe you could style the house, get it ready for resale.
I know you're going through hell
and I can't begin to understand how that feels...
Yeah, you're right. You can't just boot her out.
You know what? Instead of worrying about Alison,
how about you feel a little bit more grateful
for what I have done for you?
MUSIC: Two Strong Hearts by Ainslie Wills

DOORBELL RINGS
Oh.
Hey, Jesse. Hey. Come in.
Did Ethan send you?
We broke up.
Oh.
It was always gonna happen.
Only so long you can put up with the constant put-downs, right?
I'm sorry.
I thought you guys were happy together.
Just goes to show, doesn't it?
Appearances can be deceptive.
That's kind of why I'm here.
I've been telling myself that I shouldn't get involved,
but...I think it's too serious not to.
It's about the morning that Sean went missing.
DAN: Boyfriend didn't hold back, did he?
ALISON: No! Jesse said he didn't want to have it on his conscience.
Why would Ethan lie about seeing Sean the morning he went missing?
It's not a good look, is it?
No, it's not.
Because Ethan is very possibly the last person to see Sean.
And when you put that together with
the phone call Sean made to his lawyer, it's...
Do we know if that happened before or after he saw Sean?
We don't know anything,
because Ethan has been keeping all of this to himself.
Philip said - he said he'd been on and on at Sean to tie up loose ends.
What if Ethan knew that?
I don't want to get carried away, but...
..Sean hasn't been found yet. And...
..this raises a lot of questions for me.
ETHAN CLEARS THROAT
Er, this is about Alison's ex, isn't it?
Have you caught up with him yet?
No. There's something else we want to have a chat about.
Have they found my father's body?
Ethan, we have reason to believe that you were on the beach
with your father the morning he disappeared.
Who told you that?
Were you there, Ethan?
Jesse, wasn't it?
Hm?
We've just broken up. He's trying to get back at me.
Ethan, if you've forgotten to tell us something,
I wouldn't make it worse by lying about it now.
Did you see your father on the beach that day, Ethan?
All right. Yeah.
Yeah, I went to see Dad.
And it slipped your mind until now, did it?
My father's dead.
I'm sorry if I'm not acting like myself.
We don't know that he's dead for sure.
Do we?
What are you accusing me of?
We simply want to know why you didn't tell us this sooner.
In the search for a missing person,
every piece of information is crucial.
Yeah, OK, fine. I knew it'd look bad for me.
Why would it? Come on. Really?
Things between you and your father have been a bit rocky lately? Yes.
Yeah, they have. And when I went and saw Dad,
we had an argument. Maybe that's why I didn't say anything.
Maybe I don't want people to know that that was my last conversation
that I ever had with Dad.
What was the fight about?
It was just family stuff. It's...
Did your father make any phone calls in your presence? No.
No.
Look, I didn't kill my father, if that's what you're suggesting.
Whatever's happened to him,
it has nothing to do with me.
DAN: I'm sure someone can give us an update soon.
Jesse ran straight to you, didn't you?
Why didn't you tell us you'd seen Sean that morning?
What happens with me and my dad is between us.
Don't you want the police to find him?
We have lost valuable time because you weren't honest. No, don't...
No, I don't understand.
If you care about him as much as you say you do, I don't understand.
I don't understand why you would lie. Don't you dare
try and pin this on me! Mate, mate.
Don't... Don't make this worse for yourself.
Who the hell are you, anyway?
You already found your next meal ticket, have you?
It's not a good idea to lose your cool in a place like this.
Whatever this tag-team act that you and your ex have got going on,
you're not gonna stitch me up.
I thought you were going home.
Ethan's confirmed he saw his father on the beach,
but he says when he left, Sean was still alive.
How do we know he's not lying? We don't.
But without any evidence of foul play -
and we don't have that -
it's still an open investigation.
If any new evidence comes to light, we'll pursue it.
And what about my ex-husband?
Is it true there was some kind of fight at Ethan's?
I'd have a word with him if I were you.
A temper like that - it's not gonna do him any favours.
Can I get you anything?
You've done enough. You should go home.
Cup of tea? Then I'll go.
What's wrong?
It's just nausea. I...
I've had it a few times lately.
I actually thought I might've been pregnant,
but I think it's just stress.
I'm sorry.
So am I.
Is that terrible?
A part of me was hoping that I was having a baby.
I know it would be awful timing. It's just that...
..we wanted a baby so much.
I thought if I was,
it'd be like having... a piece of Sean.
That's understandable.
Yeah.
I mean, it's still possible.
We've got some embryos on ice in the clinic.
You must think I'm crazy,
especially as I'm about to be made homeless.
Well, I don't think THAT. But...
..I do think that if you're considering having Sean's baby,
that's all the more reason to fight for this place.
Any family you have, they're just as entitled as Ethan.
I can't think about it all right now.
Do you think Ethan's hiding something else?
Could it all be more than just a terrible accident?
Mum...
..do you think Sean was murdered?
Did you tell them I saw you down at the beach that morning?
Don't worry - you won't get roped into it.
I'm not worried about getting roped into it.
You said they mentioned a phone call.
I didn't say anything about Philip.
But if they figure out why your father called him... How?
They won't hear from Jesse - I never told him about it.
I'm thinking of calling Philip myself,
see what he made of it. No, just...
Just leave it.
I thought you and Jesse were good together.
He's been really supportive these last few weeks.
Forget him.
He's just another person who let us down.
SHE KNOCKS
You still awake?
Yeah.
I'm not tired.
I hope all that talk about Sean didn't upset you.
Do you really think someone killed him?
I think, erm...
I think there's a lot of unanswered questions,
and I've felt that all along.
And I think that...
..the more time that passes,
just the longer this goes on...
Do you think Ethan's capable of that?
PHONE VIBRATES
It's your dad.
He wants to make time to talk about you.
I suppose I should talk to him, too.
Hey. Hey.
All right? Yeah. You?
Yep. Hannah told me about Ethan evicting you.
Made my blood boil.
Right. Is that why you were over there yesterday?
Well, she's my daughter.
Now, if that little shit's giving either of you a hard time...
You could've been arrested, Michael.
I got the feeling there was something else
Hannah wasn't telling me.
Am I right?
Has Ethan done other stuff, too?
We can handle him.
So you need somewhere to live?
Potentially, yeah.
I've got plenty of room here
if you need somewhere to tide you over.
And I've made up the spare room.
Oh-ho!
Wow!
I can actually see the floor.
Yeah, I got rid of some stuff. Put the rest in storage.
Look, you don't have to give me an answer right now
but the offer's there.
Michael!
I'm... I'm really glad that you're getting your life back together.
Honestly, I am. Thank you.
But you know this doesn't change anything between us, yeah?
We split up for a reason.
No, I-I know that.
But as long as you know how sorry I am for the way that I behaved.
I'm hoping to stay in the house for a bit longer anyway.
Is that really the best place for you, so far away from town?
Yeah. Yeah. It's where I need to be right now.
Are you sure there's nothing else I need to know about Hannah?
Didn't you say you were worried about her school, too?
Like you said, she's got a good head on her shoulders.
Thought you'd gone cold on me.
SHE PANTS
You OK?
Yeah.
THEY GIGGLE
Wait. I've got it.
Do you have a condom?
Stay right there.
Um...
S-So, the police are starting to ask questions about Sean.
Maybe he didn't just drown.
If they ask, I'm gonna have to say I was going to meet you.
Wh... Why?
Well, because I was.
And they're gonna wanna know why you didn't show up.
I'm just giving you the heads up.
Just...don't say anything.
Be easy.
Fuck this!
HE SIGHS
Where were you that morning? Why won't you tell me?
Logan.
Logan, come on.
I didn't come here for any interrogation, OK?
You've got nothing to hide? That's why you can't get out fast enough?
Just back off.
Here you go.
I bought it with my own two hands. HE CHUCKLES SOFTLY
Mm, exactly what I felt like tonight.
Thank you. No, thank YOU, for this.
Do you think your ex has finally got the message?
Oh, God, I hope so.
But then he's put half his stuff in storage just to impress me,
so I don't think he's gonna give up that easily.
Sounds like things got messy between you two.
Our divorce?
Yeah, I suppose...it wasn't easy.
But then, they never are, are they?
We did have some good years.
But then we had some really difficult ones too.
Sean was your second chance?
Yeah.
I never imagined I'd...
I'd be so happy.
Despite Ethan's disapproval.
You know what? You're right.
I-I don't know if I will try for another baby, but...
..I can't just let him kick me out, can I?
I'm glad to see you standing up for yourself.
D'you know, he messaged me earlier
with a three-week reminder.
SHE SCOFFS
Not going...
..anywhere.
PHONE WHOOSHES Sent.
I like this side of you.
Yeah? Yeah. Yeah, so do I.
Yeah.
Did you and Naomi want kids?
We did. We did.
Erm...
But we kept saying next year, and then, um...
..well, Naomi got sick and, er...
..well, next year never came.
There's a lesson in there somewhere, isn't there?
Cheers...
..to appreciating every moment. Cheers.
Where you off to?
Er, Melody asked if I could stay the night.
It's totally legit. You can call her mum to check.
Yeah, well, don't worry, I will.
And if it checks out, I will drop you round there.

You don't look like you got much.
SHE SCOFFS About an hour.
But...it would have been less if you hadn't have stayed, so...
Hope the police follow it up.
That is, if you're sure it was him who did it.
I am, but I would have expected an update by now.
DOOR CLOSES FOOTSTEPS APPROACH
Hey. Morning.
Morning.
Um...what happened to the front door?
Oh.
Call it an eviction notice.
I can't let this go, can I?
And why the hell would I do something like that?
Because you would've got my text last night.
I don't need to scare you out - the courts will do that for me.
Mate, give it up.
You again.
Was this going on before Dad died?
Oh, stop it. No, you don't get to turn this back on me.
We know what you're playing at and so do the police.
They're gonna be keeping a very close eye on you.
Good. They can watch as I legally take possession of the property.
What's going on here?
I'm all out of husbands.
You'll have to find a new one somewhere else.
SHE SCOFFS
Maybe you already have.
You know what, Rachel? You carry on.
You take whatever cheap shots you like at me, cos I'm done.
I'm done with tiptoeing round your feelings.
Your marriage was over long before I turned up.
And, Ethan, I'm sorry.
I am sorry that you couldn't accept that your dad had moved on,
but what a waste of time that must feel like now.
Babe, I'm just gonna help myself to some water - my head is just...
Oh, it's killing me.
Did, er, one of you guys bring the eggs Benny?
This is my alibi for last night.
I hate to tell you...
..but there's someone else who has it in for you.
Get out.
Of course I didn't do it.
Well, I hate asking,
but I've seen you smash things before.
Why would I wanna scare your mum?
To freak her out so she moves in here?
Dad, I know you offered it and she turned you down.
A decision that I respected.
Well, you haven't always been good at taking no for an answer.
Is that what you think of me? No.
Am I gonna get a visit from your mum too?
No, she's convinced it was Ethan. Well, she's right.
You know what? I should go round and knock his head off. No, no.
Dad, Dad, Dad, no. I shouldn't have said anything. I'm sorry. Please...
I just... I-I don't know what to think.
Well, he could've picked up that kid
AFTER he smashed the window. Yeah, exactly.
Let's, um... Let's focus on the here and now.
I'm gonna organise a glazier to come round and, um, fix the window.
No, no. I hate putting you out. It's fine.
That's OK. I want to help.
No, it's... It's, erm...
It's just, it's hard enough being in this house without Sean,
you know? And I'm...
I'm just trying to keep it together for Hannah. But I just...
Cos I'm worried about Hannah, actually,
because I feel like I'm... I'm actually just being half a mum
at the moment, you know, and it's all actually getting a bit
too much right now. I know.
I know.
I can sleep on the couch again tonight,
if it gives you peace of mind.
You should go. You should go home.
Er... Well, I'm gonna organise the repair first.
It's fine, honestly.
Thank you. Yeah, thanks.
OK. Well, you know where to find me.

DOOR OPENS
Sorry I took so long.
Think everyone had the same idea today.
There you go.
HE SIGHS
It's not what you think.
Where did you get it? What have you done?
Look, your mum gave me that watch when your grandad died.
I know. It meant the world to me.
But, of course, she wanted to give it to Sean.
Out with the old, in with the new.
I'm sure it wasn't like that.
He didn't even know your grandad.
Never even met him. Why did he have to have the stupid watch?
I don't know. Because you weren't her husband any more?
Do you know how it felt
when she came round here that day, asking for it back?
I gave her a necklace like this one.
Never asked her to return it.
Mum gave Sean that watch for his birthday,
and that was, like, two nights before he went missing.
How did you get it?
Dad?
I found it on the beach.
He left it on his towel when he went for a surf.
You stole it?
It was a spontaneous thing. I wasn't even thinking.
Wait, so, when exactly was this?
The morning that Sean disappeared.
Look, I know how bad it looks.
That's why I never said anything to the police.
So... S-So you...
You were on the beach and Sean was there too?
No, he was in the water.
He was surfing.
Look, whatever happened to him, it happened after I was there,
I swear to you. Well, was anyone else there at time?
No-one.
Ethan wasn't there, if that's what you're asking.
Why were YOU there?
You don't even like the beach.
I didn't sleep too well.
I thought a walk might sort me out. A walk?
Right by our house?
I sometimes go down there, OK?
It helps me feel close to you.
Nothing more, nothing less.

I... I did knock. Are you OK?
I'm sorry. Um, I was...
I was just having a moment.
I always used to say to Naomi, "Why do you need so many coats?
"Why not just one or two?"
How is that even a question?
That's exactly what my wife would've said.
SHE TUTS GENTLY
You've kept everything.
Can't bring myself to give them away.
Yeah.
I just got myself in a tizz because, erm...
..I realised that the watch that I gave Sean is missing, so...
..means he was wearing it when he went surfing.
I'm so sorry.
Look, erm...
..I made things really awkward between us earlier - sorry.
It's just all of a sudden it struck me that I'm...
..standing there in this house that I created with Sean and I'm...
..hugging another man, and... it just...
It just... Suddenly, it just felt very... Weird.
Yeah, weird.
I know it was platonic and everything. It...
It's OK. Yeah?
Good. Great.
I was hoping you'd say that.
Listen, Alison.
I'm here for you if you need me.
And if you don't...
..that's OK too.
Thank you.
Are you gonna tell your mum about the watch?
It'll only upset her and I feel like she's got enough on her mind.
I'll think of a way to get it back to her.
It's not right that I keep it, I know.
Have you heard any more from the police?
About their so-called open investigation? No.
Not a word.
Maybe Ethan smashed the window, maybe he didn't.
But I just... I don't think he would hurt his dad.
So, you gonna let it go?
Suppose you don't really have a choice, right?
I just... I can't shake this feeling that something isn't right.
You know, I've got to keep at 'em, you know?
I need to make sure the police get some answers.
Neighbour's still hanging around, I see.
Yeah. I should go.
Hi. I didn't know you'd gone out.
Yeah, I just had to talk to Dad about a couple of things.
Have we met before?
Sorry. Dan, this is Michael, Hannah's dad.
Dan lives next door. Ah!
You probably met at the memorial.
Ah, that must be it. Yeah, that's it.
Yeah, anyway, I better go. Late for work.

It's pretty intense out there.
Oh, sorry. Did I scare you?
I thought you'd gone to bed. No.
If someone hurt Sean
and it wasn't Ethan,
who could it be?
I've been asking myself the same question.
Well, do you think it was random or someone we know?
I don't know, sweetheart.
I don't.
But I am gonna make sure that the police keep looking into it.
I have to do that.
I have to do that for Sean.
DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS
I know where I've seen you before -
the night Sean went missing. Is this true?
Logan, I need to talk to you NOW.
We just need to think of another story - that's all.
Maybe just...give us some space?
Michael? How could it be him?
DAN: Love - it's a powerful emotion.
It can make people do unpredictable things.
HANNAH: I didn't say anything before. I didn't want to believe it.
