[ Girl ] The Lord is my light
and my salvation;
whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the strength
of my life;
of whom shall I be afraid?
When the wicked,
even mine enemies and my foes,
came upon me
to eat up my flesh,
they stumbled and fell.
Where have you been?
I went to the shop.
Huh?
You've been away for hours.
Where have you been?
Just went to the shop.
I got distracted.
Look, Lucy--
I'm sorry.
I've been waiting for you,
baby, you know.
I've been waiting for you
for two hours now, you know.
Where have you been?
The shop's round the corner.
Where have you been?
I'm sorry, but I just went to
the shop, and I--
Stop saying you're sorry.
Stop saying you're sorry.
Just be honest with me.
Where have you been?
I just got distracted.
Where's my cigarettes?
Couldn't find the money.
What?
I was walking there,
and then I got to the shop
and it's--
I couldn't find
the money in my--
Where's the money?
Lucy, I gave you the money.
I gave you five pounds.
Where's the money?
I'm sorry, but I just--
Stop--
Stop f***ing saying "sorry."
Where is the money?
I don't know.
You've either got the cigarettes
or you've got the money, Lucy.
Where is it?
I've not got it.
[ Sighs ]
What are you doing to me?
I didn't mean to--
What are you doing this
to me for?
I didn't mean to--
Just be f***ing honest
with me!
Did you spend the money?
No, I didn't.
You spent the money,
didn't you?
I didn't!
You been away with your pals
and you spent the money.
I've been sitting here waiting.
[ Whimpering ]
I didn't. I promise.
You did! You did!
You don't just f***ing
lose money like that.
That's all we had.
That's all we had.
What am I gonna do?
What am I to do with you now?
You're gonna make me angry.
You've got one last chance.
Where's the money?
Where's the f***ing money?
[ Whimpering, Sniffling ]
I don't know.
Don't lie to me, Lucy.
Last time. Where's the money?
I'm sorry,
but I don't know!
I don't want to
do this to you.
I don't want to do this to you.
Tell me where
the f***ing money is!
[ Whimpering ]
What did you do with the money?
Where did you put it?
Did you smoke the cigarettes?
Are you smoking the cigarettes?
No!
What am I supposed to do?
[ Lucy Whimpering ]
[ Father ]
Shut up!
[ Belt Hitting Lucy ]
[ Father Whimpering ]
You gotta learn.
[ Teacher ] Okay, year six.
Thank you very much.
That's great.
If you'd like to come to the end
of your writing now,
we're going to finish
your family biographies
tomorrow.
I can't wait to read them.
So close your books,
get your P.E. kits and get
dressed as quickly as possible.
We're going for P.E.
in the hall.
[ Children Chattering,
Complaining ]
Quietly, thank you!
Lucy, do you want to go
and get your P.E. bag?
I forgot to bring my P.E. kit.
You forgot to bring
your P.E. kit?
last week as well, Lucy.
Why did you forget?
I just left it at home.
You just left it at home.
I need you to bring
your P.E. bag in,
'cause I need you to do P.E.
Okay, so next week
will you bring it in for me?
Put your book back in your tray.
You're going to have to
sit out this one.
Sit at the side of the hall
with Miss Jones.
[ Chattering, Shouting ]
[ Teacher ]
Okay, now once you've got that,
I want you to pick
of your body to walk around.
But I want you
to do it together. Some of you
Okay, work together.
Choose another
three parts of the body.
Try and pick three parts
that you haven't used already.
Uh, you shouldn't be
sitting around talking.
I want to see you
moving around the room.
[ Teacher, Children ]
Bless us, O God,
as we sit together.
Bless the food
that we eat today.
Bless the hands
that make the food.
Bless us, O God. Amen.
In the name of the Father
and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
[ Loud Chattering ]
[ Chattering Fades ]
Come and sit down, Lucy.
You all right?
Do you want to tell Mrs. Dales
what you said to me?
I want to phone
my social worker, please.
[ Door Opens ]
Would you like to come through?
We're just in here.
Thanks.
[ Woman ]
Are you okay?
Yeah.
We don't think it's a good idea
that you should go home
to your daddy's at the moment.
Can I go and see my mummy?
That's not a good idea either.
So what I'm going to do
is take you to
a children's home today...
until we can find you
a foster home.
Okay?
What about my other
foster parents and family
and that?
That's not an option
at the moment, I'm afraid.
Hello? Who is it?
Can I speak to
a member of staff, please?
No.
Can you go and get me
a member of staff, please?
[ Boy ]
No.
[ Man ]
Connor! Excuse me. Hiya.
Jackie Taylor, social worker.
You should have got my call,
yeah?
I did. Hi. It's Johann.
Nice to meet you.
How you doing? Come in, Lucy.
Sorry about the wait.
I was in the other room.
Just go on straight through.
The office
is straight that way.
[ Man ]
Please keep your eye
on the bowl, will you?
Don't get it all over
your trackie either.
I'll let you in.
[ Knocking ]
I've got Jackie and Lucy
with me here.
[ Greetings, Exclamations ]
This is Jackie.
Come on in, love.
Let me shut the door.
Get a bit of privacy.
[ Jackie ]
Who's the manager?
Ben is,
but I'm taking care of things.
[ Jackie ] And you're--
Karl. So have you got
some stuff for us, or--
- Lucy, get a seat.
- Yeah, come and sit
over here, Lucy.
[ Jackie ]
I'll drop them off
for you later.
I've got a few details
that you'll need as regards
to medication and stuff...
I've not actually
managed to pick up yet.
[ Overlapping Conversations,
Indistinct ]
[ Woman ]
I can't make heads or tails
of what you've written.
[ Overlapping Conversations
Continue, Indistinct ]
[ Karl ] All right then,
we'll definitely have
something worked out for today.
[ Knocking ]
[ Man ]
Out!
Connor, out. Out, out, out.
We'll talk later.
Lucy, I'm gonna go now.
I'll see you later.
Shall I introduce you
to everybody? I'm Vicky.
Marie.
That's Johann. Karl.
Hi, Lucy! You all right, duck?
[ Chuckles ]
That's Darren there.
You all right there?
Ladene.
Hiya.
Otis? Connor? Oh, look at that.
They were so busy
busting into the room,
now they don't give a--
Oi. Otis.
Connor. Say hello to Lucy.
I don't want to speak
to someone I don't know.
Move out my face. Bye!
[ Ben ] Nice.
Ben's in charge,
We're having sausages.
You like them?
This is the kitchen.
You're not allowed
of the adults is in here, okay?
Let me take you through.
I'll show you your room
in a minute.
That's the storeroom.
We've got the washing machine
down there.
Have you got-- Oh, you haven't
got a bag, have you?
