That was the word he used to describe your wife.

A fleur-de-lis stands for virtue.

He gave this to her, didn't he?

They were close.

Closer than you could stand.

GEORDIE: Eddie knew there were no death threats.

Not real ones.

So he gave the post to your wife.

ALPHY: You thought Eddie was alone, and so... (button clicks) (bomb explodes) ...you flipped the switch.

GEORDIE: You didn't half embrace your mistake.

A dead wife.

Far more poignant than a security guard.

Now he shuts up.

No matter.

We have all the evidence we need.

You know, I feel sorry for you.

They took a heathen and gave him a Bible.

I was born here, Mr. Church.

Shunted from one place.

Forced into another.

Never quite fitting in.

You must be so confused.

I know exactly who I am.

Yes, but you'll never be one of us, boy.

Congratulations, Larry.

It was nothing, really.

Had a train set when I was a kid.

Had the little hat and everything.

My husband is an absolute hero.

I could kiss you.

I could kiss you myself.

But don't worry, I won't.

As you were.

I'm waiting to be reacquainted with my poetry.

(inhales deeply) (sighs) It's good, you know.

It's derivative.

No, I was moved by it.

"Once whole, now broken, I know not who I am."

I'm just working a few things out.

Aren't we all?

It's odd.

I'm not white enough for uni or my mother.

My father, I mean, I never met him, but, but I imagine I'd be too white for him, so...

I never met my parents.

Don't you think, sometimes, perhaps all the answers are there?

With them?

We are all made in God's image.

We are all so beautiful.

And yet we are all so different.

Well, isn't that wonderful?

We should embrace our differences.

Celebrate them.

For we are all God's children, every single one of us.

I'm sorry.

About your mother.

At least I know where I stand now.

Sorry, Daniel, do you mind if I ask you something?

Of course not.

Do you regret it?

Seeing her again?

I met her on my own terms.

That's all I could've asked for, really.

For her to see me, as I am.

I can't regret that.

We've had the first month's takings from CeCe's, and we're rich!

We're not rich.

Well, not now, anyway.

Could've paid the electric bill, but... (murmurs) Jack first.

Ah.

It's an antiquity.

Oh, that's, that's quite something.

MRS. CHAPMAN: I don't want to tell you how much it cost.

But it was five whole pounds.

What do you think they're doing, Mrs. C?

Well, they're wrestling, aren't they?

Don't think they're wrestling.

(stifling laugh) (giggles) Well, they're definitely grappling.

They're grappling, certainly.

MRS. CHAPMAN: Look at that chap's face.

He's having such a lovely time.

(others stifling laughs) DAVID: What's funny about wrestling?

Behave, you lot.

GEORDIE: I didn't say anything.

MRS. CHAPMAN: Daniel.

For when you have us round for tea.

Thank you.

Very much.

Pleasure.

It's a beautiful letter.

She wrote it a long time ago.

That's not the kind of love that goes away.

That's the kind that grows and grows till your heart's fit to burst.

Well, she left a baby and, um... (voice trembling): Well, she loved him.

But what?

But what if she doesn't love me?
