| Tyler finds his load too heavy . . . |
Tyler comes out of the shop, and finds his two bags rather heavy,
 |
| . . . and is assisted by Cadno and Eifion |
so Cadno and Eifion assist him across the road; “We couldn’t believe it when Eifion was questioned,” she says,
 |
| "Let's hope they find the person responsible" |
“Let’s hope they find out the person responsible soon.”
 |
| DS Davies visits Cysgod y Glyn |
Ffion is surprised to see DS Davies, with another officer, at Cysgod y Glyn; the DS asks if Gethin is there.
 |
| "I told you – I was in the Red Lion!" |
She once more asks him where he was at the time Tyler was attacked, and he again replies that he was in the Red Lion.
“We’ve been through the CCTV there, and there’s no sign of you,” she tells him, and he says there must be some mistake.
 |
| "Why are you telling lies?" |
“Why are you telling lies?” the DS goes on, “You say that you’re in one place – we can prove you’re not – that’s a lie! I don’t have time for this – if you refuse to tell me, you’ll have to come to the station.”
 |
| "He couldn't have done it!" |
Ffion is becoming concerned, as Gethin is informed,
 |
| "Gethin Thomas, I am arresting you" |
“Gethin Thomas, I am arresting you on suspicion of attacking and causing grievous bodily harm to Tyler Davies-White.” He continues to insist that it is a mistake.
 |
| "Dani should have been here half an hour ago!" |
At the Deri, Garry is in a furious mood; “Dani was supposed to bring Carol here half an hour ago! If she’s messing around . . .”
 |
| "Babies can take ages" |
Sheryl points out that leaving the house with a small baby can take ages.
 |
| Then he is being badgered by the brewery |
Then he receives a phone call from the brewery, which does nothing to improve his humour.
 |
| "Hywel, Geth has been arrested!" |
Ffion comes in to speak to Hywel about Gethin being arrested; “They are questioning his alibi – saying he was not in the Red Lion. Gethin wouldn’t tell lies!”
 |
| Sheryl finds this news offputting |
Tyler comes across and Sheryl is wearing a guilty look as Ffion insists that it must simply be a misunderstanding.
 |
| "I could strangle whoever it was!" |
Mark tells his mother that he could strangle whoever it was who put up that fake profile of Non. The account has now been closed down, and Kath has tried to speak to her about it, but Non refuses to go to the police, as she does not wish to make an issue of it.
 |
| "She only got more stubborn" |
She tells him, “The more I tried, the more stubborn she got – I don’t want to upset her more than she is already. We should just let the dust settle.”
This angers Mark; “We just give up while some nutter has been posing as her? I thought you, of all people, could knock some sense into her. You’re not half the woman I thought you were.”
 |
| "You're not half the man I thought you were!" |
She replies, “Do you know what? You’re not half the man I thought you were either! Maybe I’m not supposed to say anything, and it’s none of my business, but I can’t hide the fact that I feel let down.
 |
| "I know you agreed to the abortion" |
“I know you agreed to the abortion.”
 |
| "What abortion?" |
He demands what she is talking about; “Debbie told me that you knew!” He puts his coat back on and leaves the house.
 |
| "You should go back to school" |
Hywel advises Ffion to go back to school, and predicts that Gethin will be back by teatime. Ffion tries to persuade herself that they will arrest the right person before long, and leaves.
 |
| "The police wouldn't arrest him without good reason" |
Tyler points out that she is hardly likely to believe her partner did it. “The police wouldn’t arrest him without good reason.”
 |
| Eifion arrives and is told the news |
Eifion comes in with the vegetables, and is told that Gethin has been arrested;
 |
| "It's bound to be a mistake!" |
Sheryl says that it is bound to be a mistake. “How do you know?” Tyler demands,
 |
| "Were you with him at the time?" |
“Were you with him at the time? How can you be so sure was not him?” He goes back home,
 |
| Eifion is carrying a weight of guilt |
and this time, Eifion is the one looking guilty.
 |
| Garry plays with one of Carol's toys . . . |
Garry sits in the flat, idly playing with one of Carol’s toys, which plays nursery rhymes,
 |
| . . . and sings along with it |
which he starts singing along with, until he stops himself.
 |
| "Garry Monk, what are you doing?" |
“Garry Monk – what are you doing?” he mutters.
 |
| "Tell me this isn't true! |
Kath and Mark go to see Debbie, who is having a break in the café flat; “Tell me this isn’t true,” says Mark,
 |
| "Don't you deny it!" |
and his mother warns her not to deny it.
“It’s true you had the abortion because it was not Mark’s baby!” she goes on, but Debbie insists that of course it was Mark’s baby. She declares that she would never be unfaithful to him, but Kath points out that she said Mark knew about it.
 |
| "I didn't want you to find out" |
“It was your baby, and I’m sorry I didn’t tell you – I didn’t want you to find out.” Kath tells Mark that he might have gone to his grave not knowing, and demands how Debbie can live with herself.
 |
| "Mam, will you leave us alone – now?" |
Mark asks his mother to leave, as he needs to talk to Debbie in private; he becomes increasingly insistent, and she finally takes the hint.
 |
| "Mark, I'm so sorry" |
Debbie repeats that she is so sorry,
 |
| Mark is extremely hurt . . . |
but he does not know what is worse; “The fact that you got rid of the baby, or that you were expecting someone else’s baby.” Again she swears that he was the father,
 |
| . . . but he says he believes her |
and he reluctantly says he believes her.
 |
| Garry is initially in an angry mood . . . |
Garry arrives at number 7, demanding why Dani has not brought Carol over,
 |
| . . . but soon simmers down when the doctor explains |
but he calms down somewhat when he sees the doctor bringing her downstairs, and Dani explains that she was having trouble breathing.
 |
| "It's only natural for Dani to panic" |
Elgan explains that it is a fever, and it is only natural for Dani to panic. He writes a prescription for the baby, and advises plenty of fluids, little and often.
 |
| Garry is now much more amenable . . . |
Garry’s anger has by now evaporated,
 |
| . . . and will go to collect the prescription |
and he says he will fetch the prescription straightaway.
 |
| "I've always loved you, Mark" |
“You know that I love you, I’ve always loved you,” begins Debbie, “But when I fell pregnant, we had only just got back together. I was 45, Mark, with three grown-up children, and a grandson.
 |
| Mark listens quietly |
“We were on top of each other in the house, I had a café to run – but the all-important matter was that Courtney had just died. What really mattered was to be there for Ricky.
 |
| "Can you imagine me telling Ricky that?" |
“Can you imagine me telling him that I was pregnant – when he had just lost a baby – and his girlfriend?”
 |
| "So you did it for Ricky" |
“So that’s why you did it – for Ricky?” Mark demands, and she replies that it was for all of them, as she could not have handled a baby in the middle of all that.
 |
| "We could have handled it together" |
Mark insists that they could have handled it together.
“No, Mark – if I told you I was pregnant, you would have put pressure on me to keep it – we would have quarrelled, when we needed to pull together.
 |
| "It was easier to go on my own" |
“In the end, it was easier to go to the clinic on my own – because I really didn’t want this to come between us.”
|
| "You didn't give a damn about what I wanted!" |
“What about me?” he pleads, “You didn’t give a damn about what I wanted.
 |
| "I didn't hurt Tyler!" |
In the interview room, Gethin insists that he did not hurt Tyler. “Can you tell me where you were in reality?” the DS asks, and he says that it is awkward.
 |
| "You mustn't tell anyone!" |
He does not want her to tell anyone,
 |
| "You're in no position to give orders" |
but she informs him, “You’re in no position to give orders.”
Only then does Gethin finally admit, “I was in the back room of the salon with Sheryl – not having a treatment!”
 |
| "Oh – we're getting to the truth at last!" |
DS Davies is glad to have reached the truth at last. “We have been seeing each other for a couple of months, and Sheryl will confirm it,” he says,
 |
| "But don't question her" |
“But don’t question her – I’ve told you the truth now!”
 |
| "I need it to be confirmed by Miss Hughes" |
The officer reminds him that he has said that before, and she will not believe anything until it is confirmed by Miss Hughes.
She confesses that she should have told him, and is sorry for going behind his back, but pleads that she was trying to do the right thing.
 |
| "Yes – the right thing for you!" |
“The right thing for you!” he snarls, but she assures him that there is nothing he could have said or done which would have persuaded her to have the baby.
 |
| "It's my body, Mark!" |
“It’s my body – and I have the right to decide what happens to it!” she emphasises, but he points out that it does not make it right, and he walks out of the flat.
 |
| Dani receives another silent call |
Dani answers the phone, but there is no-one there; “I can’t believe how many of those I get,” Garry moans, “Sometimes they phone me up, asking if I want help to pay for my funeral –
 |
| "I tell them I'm an undertaker!" |
“I tell them I’m an undertaker and hang up the phone!”
 |
| "It's nice that we can talk" |
Dani says that it is nice they can talk, which makes a difference, but is reluctant to allow Carol to go to the Deri; “She’s ill – she needs her mother.”
 |
| Garry hands Carol back |
Garry acquiesces without argument and goes back to Deri.
 |
| DS Davies questions Sheryl |
In the salon, DS Davies tells Sheryl that they have arrested Gethin Thomas; “But he insists it was not him, because he was here with you.
 |
| "Is it true you're having an affair?" |
“He says you’re having an affair – is that true?”
 |
| "No, it is not!" |
Sheryl denies this, which the DS finds strange. “Look, I know this is difficult, but if you don’t confirm Mr Thomas’s story, then he is in serious trouble – so please be honest.”
 |
| Sheryl tries to usher the DS out of the salon |
Sheryl sees Hywel approaching, and cannot get rid of the DS quickly enough, insisting that Gethin was not at the salon.
 |
| "What did she want, then?" |
Sheryl tells Hywel a story about the police wanting to know if she was in the salon on the night Tyler was attacked,
 |
| "She's asking at all the businesses in the street" |
and will probably ask everyone with businesses in the street. Hywel feels sorry for Gethin, as he is still incarcerated.
 |
| Ffion has some questions to ask |
Ffion has encountered the DS in the street,
 |
| "He would never attack Tyler!" |
and demands what she has not brought Gethin home; “He would never attack Tyler!”
 |
| "His story does not add up" |
DS Davies replies that his story does not add up, but cannot elaborate any further.
Ffion hurries back home,
 |
| "It looks as if Gethin is going to be charged" |
and Cadno tells Tyler that Eifion told her about the arrest; “But now it looks as if Gethin is going to be charged.” Tyler assumes that, in that case, it must have been him.
 |
| Mark has been drowning his sorrows . . . |
Mark is sitting morosely in the Deri,
 |
| . . . and when Debbie appears . . . |
when Debbie finds him there, but he is quite clear he does not have anything to say to her,
 |
| . . . he does not want to speak to her |
and moves to another part of the pub, leaving her very tearful.
 |
| "Geth is going to be charged" |
At Penrhewl, Eifion is making dinner for the boys when Cadno arrives home; “You won’t believe the latest from the village – it seems that Geth is going to be charged.”
 |
| This is getting out of hand |
Eifion looks very concerned, thinking that he would have been released by now. “To think Gethin could do such thing!” she says incredulously, “Ffion was in tears –
 |
| "He could get years for this!" |
“he could get years for this!”
 |
| The bowl slips from Eifion's trembling fingers |
In his nervous state, Eifion drops a bowl of food on the floor, and looks desperately anxious.
