But she rejects the chance to come clean

61 CONT:
(3) 61JOHN:
She’s lying.
BETH:
John, please
JOHN:
-my daughter’s on the other side
involved with drugs. Drugs.
Look me in the eye and tell me you
had nothing to do with that She
can’t.
JOHN (CONT'D)
Look me in the eye.
TANYA:
My girl isn’t a liar!
JOHN:
And mine isn’t a drug smuggler
TRACY:
(loses it now)
I don’t know nothing, right. I
didn’t carry no gear, I was nothing
to do with it
And she storms out the door, almost taking out Kathy who
can’t get out of the way in time.
Kathy’s dog starts barking. Then runs off...
Everyone is stunned.
JANICE:
(getting upset, crumples)
Why would she do this? Why would
she be so bloody stupid?
She is bereft. TANYA unsure what to think.
BETH:
She’ll be alright, I’m sure there’s
some plausible explanation.
No one believes this. Tanya goes. Mike exhales.
62 INT. JS MOTORS - LADIES TOILET - DAY 15 - 11.50 62
Tracy by the sinks, just needing space, away from everyone.
But TANYA enters. Hold their look -
TANYA:
‘Jimmy’?

62 CONT:
62TRACY:
I did the dirty on her, okay.
Once. But he was Viv’s fella.
Tanya not sure whether to believe this.
TANYA:
I’m on your side, yeh. But you have
to promise me you ain’t lying.
TRACY:
I’m not.
Tanya holds her look, long enough to know that her mother
63 EXT. JS MOTORS - SERVICE AREA - DAY 15 - 12.15 63
Kathy’s dog has jumped up at Fat Jason and is trying to hump
him, much to the amusement of Ziggy, Rick and Jez, who are
jeering and yelling - ‘You’ve pulled’, etc. Kathy is trying
to get a lead back on it, as Fat Jason wriggles and writhes.
Marty joins in the laughter, and we see that he is starting
to be slightly integrated again.
ZIGGY:
(offers the packet)
Bourbon?
But this becomes background as
Mike walks Janice and John back to their car. As John climbs
in, Janice holds back, wants a private word.
JANICE:
Please don’t tell anyone, not yet.
The embassy say the press won’t
find out until she’s formally
charged... we’re hoping it won’t
come to that...
Mike nods, of course.
JANICE (CONT'D)
I just want her home.
This is hard for her, and will break her. And we should feel
that this is every parent’s worst nightmare.
64 INT. JS MOTORS - MIKE’S OFFICE - DAY 15 - 12.20 64
Mike strides back in, through Kathy’s office - as she opens
her mouth to talk...

You tell no one. No one.
(heads for his office,
then doubles back -)
And if that bleedin’ dog’s here
tomorrow I’ll give it something to
be depressed about

66 INT. TRACY’S HOUSE - TRACY’S BEDROOM - DAY 15 - 20.05 66
However, in Tracy’s bedroom, Tanya and Robbie are doing a
vigorous search of the room for anything incriminating.
TANYA:
What about the drawers?
She points to the DRAWERS where the money is stashed.
ROBBIE:
It’s just underwear and that.
Not satisfied with that, Tanya crosses and hastily pulls out
one of the drawers, starts rifling through.
ROBBIE (CONT'D)
Careful, she’ll know
She slides the drawer back in and pulls another one out, as
she does so, there’s a noise as SOMETHING HEAVY DROPS.
ROBBIE (CONT'D)
What’s that?
Robbie shoves her out of the way to investigate the back of
the drawers - tension, tension - but before he can get to the
package, they hear the sound of THE LAVATORY FLUSHING.
TANYA:
Sh*t, she’s coming out. Quick.
They slam the drawers back in and do a hasty tidy, then
launch themselves out of the room just as Tracy exits the
bathroom. Tracy registers their odd expressions.
TANYA (CONT'D)
Good bath?
TRACY:
Yeh.
She heads towards her room. As she goes in, she can
instantly tell they have been in there.
Panic as she realises what they could find.

67 EXT. ESTATE - DAY 16 - 07.20 67
Tracy walking through the estate with the BAG OF MONEY. We
focus on the bag, then on Tracy, what is she going to do?
68 EXT. PARADE OF SHOPS - DAY 16 - 07.30 68
She reaches a parade of shops. She is walking walking
walking with that bag of money. Where is she going? What is
her plan? To the side of the shops are two HUGE CLOTHES BANK
DONATION CONTAINERS. Tracy approaches one of them with the
bag. She contemplates what she is about to do. She pulls
down the level and slots the bag of cash into the dipped
metal flap. One push and the money will drop inside the
container, gone forever. One push, one push... that’s all.
We hold on Tracy’s face. She lets go. Clang. It slams
closed. That’s it - thousands of pounds - gone.
Hold on her face. Eyes closed. What has she done? She
opens her eyes and we hold on her face, her expression slowly
changing, almost a wry laugh...
We then see what she is looking at -
The leather handle of the bag has trapped as it closed, the
bag hasn’t fallen. On Tracy - re-evaluating.
Hold, hold, hold. She can’t do it.
She grabs the handle, pulls the flap open and scoops out the
69 INT. JS MOTORS - STAFF ROOM - DAY 16 - 08.00 69
WORK LOCKER opened. Tracy scans around to make sure no one
is looking then stashes the BAG OF MONEY deep inside.
70 INT. JS MOTORS - RECEPTION/SHOWROOM - DAY 16 - 15.30 70
Tracy leads a young family to the reception area like at the
top of the episode. But unlike the top, her entire demeanor
is different -
TRACY:
Take a seat, there’s teas, coffee,
juice for the kids - our sales
advisor will be with you soon
She then heads back to reception as Marty arrives to grab the
documentation, he blows a kiss to Amelie
MARTY:
Can we keep her permanently - she’s
miles cuter than Viv -
Amelie laughs. Tracy doesn’t.

(sotto, of the family)
What are the kids’ names?
TRACY:
Piss and Off.
MARTY:
Unusual names.
ANGLE - Beth watching this from her office, worried about
Tracy, knowing what she does.
But her eyes are then drawn to Marianne leaving her office.
But this time she doubles back and grabs something -
Her phone.
She glances in Beth’s direction, as if to say, I’ll not be
leaving that there again...
71 INT. TRACY’S HOUSE - TRACY’S BEDROOM - NIGHT 16 - 03.45 71
Darkness of the early hours. This is when the fear comes.
Tracy lying in her bed, can’t sleep. She tosses and turns
but the release of sleep simply won’t arrive.
We go HEIGHTENED now...
Really close in on her face. Bizarre angles. Almost like we
can capture her thoughts, her pain, her anxiety...
