INT. BAYMOORE ARCADE UPSTAIRS FLAT - DAY
Tom and Emma walk into the flat, the curtains are drawn, the room in total darkness. Emma walks across the room and opens the curtains, the room looks shabby and empty.
Emma: A lick of paint and this place will be fab...
Tom: I can't thank you enough babe for this...
Emma: Yeah well it's not like I wanted to go uni and travel the word anyways is it...
Tom: Yeah but I doubt you nan intended you to buy some shabby little flat above a games arcade does she?
Emma: She wanted me to be happy, with the man I love...
Tom holds Emma, and kisses her tenderly.
Tom: I'll pay it back, in monthly installments...
Emma: Don't worry about it...honestly...
Emma begins picking up the rubbish and puts it into a black bin bag.
Emma: Now let's get to work on this place, and then we can show it the boys :D

INT. TORBAY HOSPITAL - NIGHT
Val is outside in the coridoor, looking on as the doctors cover James body. Tears rolls down her face. Claire comes over to her.
Claire: Mom...
Val: Leave me alone...
Claire: Mom, please don't shut me out like this...
Val: He's gone Claire, and he's not coming back...
Claire: I know, and we've got to stick together, now more than ever, it's what dad would have wanted...
Val: How the hell do you know what he'd have wanted!? You weren't married to him for over 20 years!
Claire: It's not my fault he's dead mom, so don't take it out on me okay!?
Val: No, but I know whose fault it is, Craig Harvey's!
Claire: You what!?
Val: One minute he's threating your dad and now this!? It's about time some one showed him that he can't get away with the things he does!
Val storms past Claire, speeding out of the hospital. Claire looks concerned, worried for what her mother will do...
-
NO James can't be dead. Now poor Richard's going to be charge with murder and its all Craig's fault.

EXT. OUTSIDE THE ADOPTION AGENCY- DAY
Patrick and Amy are walking away from the adoption agency. Amy suddenly pulls out an address book from her handbag.
Patrick: What's that?
Amy: Nothing...
Patrick pulls the address book out of Amy's hands and looks at the page that Amy turned too. It has a girl's address written inside.
Patrick: Amy! Where did you get this from?!
Amy: I just got it from the adoption agency that's all...
Patrick: You stole details from the adoption agency!
Amy: Look relax...
Patrick: This is ludicrous! Not to mention illegal...
Amy: Look Patrick, i've come up with this idea, i can't afford to wait around to get a child, so i thought i'd use my initiative and get this address book, and see this woman myself..see if we can come to some kind of arrangement, without getting the agency involved..
Patrick: But you've stolen the details from the agency, maybe this girl doesn't want you dragging up the issue, hence why she went to an agency!
Amy: Look, i just got the address because i want a word with her, nothing else..it's not like i'm gonna force her to agree to anything, if she says no to my offer then fair enough, but there's no harm in trying is there?!
Amy looks at Patrick determined, but Patrick looks on, unsure over Amy's plans.

INT. HARVEY'S MOTORS- DAY
Val storms into Craig's garage, tears are rolling down her eyes. She starts screaming at Craig who is doing paperwork.
Val: You *******! You've killed my husband! :angry:
Craig: You what?!
Val: My James is dead! And it's because of you!
Craig: I swear, i had nothing to do with it, James got killed in a hit and run..
Val: Yeah and you were behind the wheel! You wanted James dead, you had a motive! It was you! You need to be taught a lesson Harvey, you can't go round getting away with everything! :angry:
Craig: I swear to you, i wasn't involved in James's death...i issued him with a few threats, told him to stay away, mind his own bloody business but i didn't murder him!
Val: Oh no...you didn't murder him did you!? You got one of your heavies to do your dirty work! :rolleyes: Your not gonna get away with this Craig! You killed my husband, and i'm gonna prove it!
Craig: You can't pin anything on me because i didn't do it!
Val: You'll get your commeupance Craig...one day..
Val leaves Craig's garage in tears. Craig looks distressed at the suggestion, clearly he wasn't involved. He gets his phone out and dials in a number.
Craig: Yep mate, i need you to do me a favour...check your databse, I've got a registration number that I need you to trace...
INTERCUT:
(FLASHBACK) EXT. BAYMOORE STREETS - NIGHT
Flashback to the time that James is run over. Craig is sitting in his BMW, looking on in the distance to the entrance of the alleyway.
He sees James running out, and within a split second a car speeds by and sends James flying onto the pavement. Craig looks on in shock at the scene infront of him, clearly things haven't gone to plan.
He quickly takes a picture of the Car's registration number before it speeds off. He stares at James body in the distance, and quickly speeds off, to clear the scene. It is clear that Craig had no invovlment in the hit and run...

Patrick and Amy are walking towards Lynne's house.
Amy: This is the one...looks like a really nice area...
The pair head up the garden path.
Patrick: I swear you've lost the plot doing this Amy, you're crazy woman!
Amy: Yeah well thats what 12 years of marraige does to you...
Patrick: I'm gonna make sure this "Lynne" knows that I had no part in this crazy idea...
Amy: You're here with me aint you? That's as good as being involved...
Patrick: Like I had a choice!
Amy knocks on the front door. The pair stand in silence, Amy casts Patrick a disaproving look.
Patrick: What's that for!?
The front door opens and Lynne, a woman in her late teens/early twenties opens the door.
Lynne: Hello? If it's double glazing we had the front and back done the other month...
Amy: Erm we're not here to sell anything, you are Lynne aren't you?
Lynne: (Cautious) Yes, why?
Amy: It's a bit awkward actually...erm...well we saw you're name at the adoption agency and we thought we'd come and speak to you...
Lynne: I don't understand...
Amy: Look do you mind if we come in and explain?
Lynne: (Apprehensive) Ok then, come on in...
Amy: (Enthusiastic) Thank you so much!
Amy and Patrick walk through the door. Patrick casts Lynne an apologitic look as they head into the house...

INT. RED RUM PUBLIC HOUSE - NIGHT
The pub is in a down mood, with the news of James' death. There is slight chatter, but everyone has sad looks on their faces. Claire comes into the pub, a worried look on her face.
Vicky: Claire hun, I'm so sorry to hear about your dad...
Claire: Yeah, look have you seen my mom?
Vicky: Not recently no, is everything okay?
Claire: She's blaming it all on Craig, and she said she was going to have a word...
Vicky: Oh god, do you think she's okay?
Claire: I don't know, that's what I'm worried about...
The pub falls into sudden silence as Val walks into the pub, she has a look of rage on her face, she is shaking with anger.
Claire: Mom, what's up?
Val whipes the running mascara from her eyes, and casts each and every person a look of pure venom.
Val: Craig wasn't responsible...which means someone in here ran my James over! Come on then! Who did it eh!? What pathetic coward ran my James over and then didn't even have the decency to stop and see if he was alright!?
Claire: Mom, don't do this...
Val: No Claire! Someone in here did this! And I want to know who!
Vicky: I think you'd best listen to Claire Val, go home and sleep on it...
Val: Sleep on!? My husband is dead, how can I sleep with that running around in my head!? I swear to god, when I find out who did this to my James, I'm gonna kill ya! D'ya hear me!? I'll bloody kill ya!
Claire grabs hold of Val's arm, but Val shakes her off and storms off by herself, Claire running after her. Muffled conversations begin to take place between people. A close up of Richard who is suddenly looking very guilty, realising he could well have ran James over...
-
Amy's lost the plot. And Craig's in the clear from killing James my eye he is.
