Natasha,
I didn't rat you out because I don't think any kid
deserves to be separated from their mother,
Stay, Stay a little bit longer,
It's Jack, OK?

He talks about, "It's time to go and see Emily now,"
You said you were cutting him out of your life,
I think I might know where he is,

Jack! Nobody wants this, OK?
I've got nothing, Jen,
I can only imagine how Tasha feels,
I can't even find her to apologise,
Jack,,,
Jack! HE GRUNTS

Jack? Fuck! Jack!
He's coming for me,

You've got a talent,

The reality's different,
If it comes down to you or him,
can you look him in the eyes and pull the trigger?
Because that's what it takes,
Time for some holiday, Mr Warrington?
Business,
TASHA: 'I didn't start this,'
But if he comes for my daughter,
I will be the one to finish it,
Do you think you can do five?
One, two, three, ooh,
Four, five,
Have you got it?
I'm gonna go to the garden with Maria, OK?
So can you do five more while I'm out?
I think I wanna take her to the doctor,
She's feeling really hot, - We can do that,
She likes it here, doesn't she?
- She's a woman of taste, - Ah!

It's good to have some life in the house,

It's not the life I thought I'd give her,
I know,
I'm not really the mum I hoped I'd be,
What was your mother like?
Wonderful, CHUCKLES
Sick, She got sick,
Erm, so I grew up fast,
You lost her young,
I'm sorry, That leaves a mark,
There was no-one else to take care of her,
so it was just the two of us, and we loved it, really,
It was hard,
Then she was gone,
And then you needed someone to take care of you,
Yep, Maybe that's why I fell for it,,, with him,
Listen, Tasha, you need to think about what comes next,
I know, I know we can't stay here,
No, that's not what I'm saying,
This place is big, It's safe,
Half the time, I'm not even here,
Sorry, what are you saying?
A-Are you saying that we can live here?
If you wanted,
What about your family?
They have their own lives,
I don't worry a lot about what happens in mine,
Ah, I don't believe that,
You've got that kids' room with all the toys,
I thought you, erm,,,
No,
I can't ask you to do that,
You didn't,
You don't know me, I could be a serial killer,
I know by now I can trust my instinct,
Think about it,
Let's take Lucy to the doctor,
Oh,,, is that safe?
Even if your ex isn't out there,
the police are still looking for you,
Maria, I don't have a choice,
So let me take her,
Nobody is looking for a nice old lady

Can I trust you?

Good luck finding your wife,
I didn't say she was my wife,
The photo, it's a wedding, no?
I hope you find her,
OK, She's playing, Are you sure it was him?
Positive, He has a wedding photograph of you,
- And he didn't recognise her? - No,
How can he not know his own daughter?
He said you lost a child, Is that true?
- No, - What aren't you telling me?
TASHA BREATHES HEAVILY
- I can't tell you, - You've got to,
I'm in this now, He's seen me,
TASHA EXHALES
He thinks Lucy's dead,
What?
There was an accident,
I had to make everyone believe that she died,
It was the only way that I could keep her safe,
He twists things, Maria,
He knows how to make it seem
like I'm the one who's a danger to her,
That's what I'm running from,
I am a criminal,
But if I go to prison,
there's no way I can keep her safe from him,

Hello, Lucy,
I used to know you when you were a little baby,
Now you're all grown up,
Why don't you go play outside with Maria?
Thank you,
Thank you for the heads-up,
Did you tell anyone that you emailed me?
JEN CHUCKLES SARCASTICALLY Who could I tell?
Besides, I don't want anyone to know any more than you do,
I couldn't just transfer it,
I didn't want anything to,,, - Implicate you,
Connect me, Tasha,
I'm taking a chance just being here,
I know,
Thank you, - 3,000,
It's the best I could do to start, and, erm, this,
It's a Cypriot number,
Thank you,
Should be enough for you and Emily to get set up someplace,
Lucy,
Yes, Lucy, Sorry,
MARIA: Oh! JEN: It suits her,
It's my mum's name,

I can't imagine how hard it's been,
But, Tasha, you've got to keep moving,
All right? If Jack finds you,,,
Why do you suddenly care?
Tasha, you asked for my help,
This is it,
I know you feel safe right now,
but how long will that last?
Jack won't stop until,,,

Jack threatened to kill himself in front of me,
OK, well,,, why didn't he do it?
What is it?
I told him you were in Cyprus,
- Jen! - I had to stop him,
All right, with Jack, I can't trust myself,
You know, he knows me, He's in my head,
And I know you think I don't know what he's doing,
that he's manipulating me,
but that doesn't mean that I can't,,,
Just take the money and go while you still can,
I know Jack did some terrible things,
some unforgivable things,
But what about what we did to him?
We made him think that he's responsible
for killing his own child,
Jen, we didn't have a choice,
Do you think he'll see it like that?
If he finds you, WHEN he finds you,
which he will, if you don't run,
I don't have that option,
Then you're on your own,
No,
No, you don't get to run,
not after you've told him where I am,
Tasha, get out of my way,
Give me his number, I'm gonna reach out to him,
Did you not listen to anything I just said?
Yes, I did, and you're right,
He's not gonna stop until he finds me,
So I'm gonna find him first, - And do what?
And make him believe it's over,
You may know, Jack, but I know him, too,
What he wants is to win,
So I'm going to tell him what he wants to hear,
And if he wants you dead?
Well, it's not much of a life for us,,,
or you,
It's the only way to end it,

You know the type?
There are many types of snake, but they are all snakes,
Where's Mummy?
Mummy's gone out, but she'll be back soon,

Oh, God, Put the hand away, Jack,
HE CHUCKLES SOFTLY
Come in,
You're safe, Tasha,

She wasn't,

Are you planning on hurting me?
That's the last thing I want,
Well, you never know with you,
- Look,,, - Don't touch me,
All right, OK, OK,
Why are you here?
All right, I'll get to the point,
Er,,,
I have done so much wrong,,,
and I've hurt a lot of people, and I want to make it right,
I wanna fix things,
Oh, really?
You always used to talk about a place in the sun,
somewhere to run away as a family,
Well, that was before I knew you planned to trade me in
for your ex-wife,
Yeah, and I live with that,
Come on, let me show you around,

Yes, Emily is the princess in the book,

Do you want to read it? - Yes,
"Once upon a time, there was a beautiful princess,
"and she had a beautiful dress and beautiful hair
"and a beautiful smile,"
OK,
OK, Let's talk, - No, I don't wanna talk,

I hate you,
So you're gonna shoot me?
- Don't move! - All right, OK,
I told you not to move,
- Right, we're calm, - I'm not calm,
I'm fucking furious
for all the shit you made me think was normal,
SHE PANTS
You must think I'm so dumb,
No, I don't, I know you're not,
Will you let me explain?
I brought you here because I want this to be yours,
Johnny has contacts in Cyprus, They can fast track it,
It's all above board, - What are you talking about?
I know it's dramatic, but,,,
,,,I need to do this,
I owe you a fresh start, and the first step is a home,
Well, the last time you threw money at me, Jack,
you ran me off the road,
So forgive me if I don't trust you,
And I know this doesn't change that,
You're fucking demented,
I know how you're living, Tasha,,,
,,,and you deserve better,
SHE EXHALES
What would I owe you?
- Nothing, - Nothing?
Nothing, I told you, you deserve better,
You deserve a fresh start,
And if I make it happen for you, then maybe,,,
- Maybe what? - No,
Then maybe I'll deserve a fresh start, too,,,
,,,with Jen,
Oh, still about her, isn't it?
SHE SIGHS
I love her, SHE BREATHES HEAVILY
Look, why don't we sit down and talk?
No, you're getting on just fine standing up,
All right, then tell me what you want, Tasha,
If it's not the villa, then that's fine,
But you have to help me make things right
because this is all I've been thinking about
for the last three years, OK?
You've got the power,
So you decide,
We can either sit down
and we can reach an arrangement together,
or you can do something that means you will struggle
for the rest of your life,
Hating me isn't gonna fix anything,
JEN: She's napping,
What is it?
MARIA EXHALES It's nothing,
No, What's wrong?
MARIA EXHALES
Can you tell me why?
Why what?
Why you chose me,
Er,,, HE CHUCKLES AWKWARDLY
You were young,
And you're beautiful, and you're smart,
And you don't believe me, do you?
I wish you could see yourself that way,
In another life, you'd be everything I wanted,
Why wasn't I?
What was wrong with me? - Nothing,
Believe me, if I could go back, I would,
Because you ruined my life, Jack,
I didn't mean to,
SHE BREATHES HEAVILY
When we first met,,,
,,,could you tell that I would,,, fall for it?
Maybe,
Maybe?
Yeah,
I underestimated you,
I had no idea how much it would affect you,
having Emily,
No, don't,
She was my daughter, too,
She was ours,
And the grief is ours,
And there's nothing we can do to each other
that will take that away,
It hurts,
HE BREATHES SHAKILY
And every time I close my eyes, I see her,
HE EXHALES DEEPLY
Now, if you don't want the villa, that's OK,
It's a stupid fucking gesture,
but you have to choose something, OK?
You have to tell me what you want, anything,
I'll make it happen,
What do you want, Tasha?
SHE EXHALES
I chose you cos we had a connection,
No, that's not true cos you faked it all,
Not all of it,
Not the connection,
I'm offering you your old life back,
Now, if you walk away with nothing,
could you live with that?
I lived with so much worse,
Let me take care of you,
That's why you chose me, isn't it?
Jack, don't,
- It's OK, It's OK, - No,
- It's OK, - Don't,
- Why would she take a gun? - For protection,
She's afraid of him, - She should be,
What happens to her daughter? Did she even think about that?
I can't be here,
Tasha,
Tasha, are you OK?
Whatever you're planning on doing,,,
Tasha, Answer me, JACK: 'Hi, Jen,'
Where's Tasha?
Come inside,
You followed me, Jen,
I didn't know what you'd do after,,,
,,,you lied to me,
As bad as each other there,
Where's Tasha? You didn't hurt her, did you?
Jen,,,
Really? That's what you think of me?
Still?
Tasha,
Tasha and I have been talking,
Which is something we should have done a long time ago,
But we've come to terms,
Come to terms?
Yeah, we're getting divorced,
Took a bit of persuading, didn't it? But,,, makes sense,
- I don't understand, - It's OK, Come on, Here,
- Is it true? - Mm-hm,
- I thought,,, - You thought what?
That I was here for revenge,
I think we're all a bit past that, don't you?
How long has this been a thing?
Who would have thunk it after all these years?
How long?
Since the accident,
I helped Tasha get away, make a fresh start,
Why did you do that?
You didn't owe her anything,
After everything that happened, it felt like I did,
I'm so sorry, That's on me,
You should never have been put in that position,
How much longer, Jack?
Any minute now,

Of course it's Connor, but it's me, This is my life,
