Season 7

Episode 25

Looking into your eyes I know I'm right
If there's anything worth my love it's worth a fight
We only get one chance
But nothing ties our hands
You're what I want
Listen to me
Nothing I want
Is out of my reach

(I'm Free)
Heaven helps the man who fights his fear
Love's the only thing that keeps me here
(I'm Free)You're the reason that I'm hanging on
My heart's staying where my heart belongs
(I'm Free)

Running away will never make you free
And nothing we sign is any kind of guarantee
But I wanna hold you now
And I won't hold you down

I'm shaking the past
Making my breaks
Taking control
If that's what it takes

(I'm Free)
Heaven helps the man who fights his fear
Love's the only thing that keeps me here
(I'm Free)You're the reason that I'm hanging on
My heart's staying where my heart belongs
(I'm Free)

I wanna hold you now
I wont hold u down
You're what I want
Listen to me
Nothing I want
Is out of my reach

(I'm Free)
Heaven helps the man who fights his fear
Love's the only thing that keeps me here
You're the reason that I'm hanging on
My heart's staying where my heart belongs
(I'm Free)

Scene 1

[Camera slowly fades in from opening credits and pans around Apollo’s bedroom, clothes have been thrown around the room and two sleeping bodies are intertwined on the bed with a sheet covering parts of their bodies.]

(Camera zooms in on Dreamer as she opens her eyes, she slowly looks around her too scared to move, her mouth slowly opens wider as she looks under the sheet to find herself completely naked)

(Dreamer slowly pushes herself up, she turns her attention to Apollo who is still fast asleep)

Dreamer: Oh shit!

[Camera zooms in on Dreamers face before cutting to the next scene]

Scene 2

[The camera fades in from black to show KC walking down the corridor to the airport entrance. The camera pans around to show Tally standing in the entrance way as KC stops in his pace. KC's eyes narrow as he starts to run, straight in the direction of Tally. As he gets nearer to her, she looks nervous and looks around, wondering which way to turn.]

Tally (nervously): KC?

(KC growls, the camera pans back to show KC running at Tally, his arms outstretched. As he is yards from her, Bray moves in from the side and pushes Tally to one side. Tally falls down and KC grabs hold of Bray, falling to the ground.)

KC (yells): BRAY! Get out of my way!

(Bray shakes his head)

Bray: No way! You were going to kill her!
KC: She's with the Chosen!
Bray: Let her speak KC... before you pass judgement!
KC: Whatever!

[KC pushes himself up off Bray, storms past a fallen Tally and out of the airport, slamming the doors shut as he does. Bray looks at Tally and shakes his head as he lays back down on the floor and the camera fades to black.]

Scene 3

[Camera fades in from black to show Phoenix and Gel lying in bed, Phoenix has one arm round Gel’s neck and their hands are intertwined. Gel is unable to shift the smile that is on her lips]

Gel: (whispers) What are you thinking?
Phoenix: (grins) That I cant believe I let you propose to me before I got the chance to propose!
Gel: (smiles) that’s so sweet Phoenix!

(Phoenix smiles down at Gel before moving in for a kiss, while Gel lifts the covers over their heads while they laugh)

OS Voice: OH MY GOD!

(Both Gel and Phoenix reappear from under the covers, camera pans around to show Apollo standing in the doorway)

Phoenix: Apollo!
Apollo: Just carry on and pretend I was never here!
Phoenix: GET OUT!

[Apollo slowly backs out of the room before turning and running, camera cuts back to Phoenix and Gel to show that the moment has passed! Camera cuts to the next scene]

Scene 4

[The camera cuts in to the meeting room, the majority of the Mallrats are gathered, including Amber and Lex as Bray stands up in the room and looks around.]

Bray: Look, we've come here... because one of our own, Tally, has returned from the Chosen to share her story!
KC: TRAITOR!
Bray: Shut it KC!
Lex: Yeh!
Bray: We are here to hear her story. We know from experience with the Chosen that they can brainwash people, and it seems the evil tribe are no different than they have been in the past. I for one want to hear what she has to say!
Dreamer: Yeah. Let her speak!

(Tally looks at Bray and nods before she stands up as he takes a seat)

Tally: I don't expect any of you to believe me. I don't expect any of you want me to be here. I know that the Chosen are evil. But they are different this time. They are really evil. They made my brother so crazy, so crazed that he blew himself up in their name. Can you imagine what an enemy they are? If you say no to them... they kill you. They make you kill.
Bray (nods): Go on!
Tally: They made me kill my friend. It was her or me, I had to throw her off a building or I would have been next. (starts to cry) Don't you realise. Don't you know!

(Alice gets up and walks over to Tally)

Tally: They're evil... so, so evil!

[Tally breaks down into full sobs as she falls into Alice's arms and the camera pans around the room, coming to rest on KC's narrowed glare before fading to black.]

Scene 5

[Camera fades in from black to show May and Enola walking hand in hand along one of the runways, as they walk May rests her head on Enola’s shoulder and holds her onto her arm tighter and cant fight back a smile]

May: I cant remember the last time I was this happy
Enola: (smiles) I can, three hours ago when you told me the same thing!
May: (Sheepish smile) OK I get the picture, I’m just so…
Enola: …happy?

(The couple stop in their tracks and share a tender kiss)

Enola: and just so you know, I’ve never been this happy in years either

(they lean against each other and head back towards the airport)

May: And just so you know, I never what this to end!

[The couple keep hold of each others hands as they head indoors. Camera cuts to the next scene]

Scene 6

[The camera cuts in from the previous scene to show the Mallrats gathered in the meeting room from the previous scenes. The camera pans around to show Dreamer sitting at one end of the room and the pans around to the doorway. The doorway opens with a bang and slams against the wall, the Mallrats jump and look at the doorway. Ebony stands in the door frame.]

(Ebony looks around at the Mallrats, seeing Dreamer she nods and walks over to her friend. She reaches Dreamer and whispers something in her ear, quietly so no one else in the room can hear.)

Dreamer (nods): Okay.

[Ebony nods back at Dreamer and then leaves the room, the camera fading to black on Dreamer's face before fading to black.]

Axel; He’s busy!
Darryl: sure!

(Axel rolls his eyes and turns to leave)

Axel: I don’t understand what’s going on with your Darryl but since you’ve been with Jared you’ve been…well a jerk!
Darryl: Well maybe you shouldn’t of broken up with me!
Axel: Grow up!

[Axel leaves the bar and slams the door behind him, camera cuts to Darryl who throws his cloth onto the bar before sitting on the stall and covering his face with his hands. Camera cuts to the stairway to show Jared sitting on the steps resting his head against the wall and letting out a sigh. Camera fades to black]

Scene 8

[The camera cuts in from the previous scene to show Ellie and Alice sitting in the cafe, Ellie is sipping from a cup of water and Alice a cup of coffee. The camera pans around to show both of their faces.]

Alice: This is nice.
Ellie: What is?
Alice: Us... being back on par.
Ellie (nods): Yeah. With everything going on... we need each other more than ever!
Alice: Mmm...

(Ellie frowns and looks up at Alice)

Ellie: Something on your mind?
Alice (nods): Yeah... I want to tell you something. I have been for a while and I'm not sure you're really going to like it!
Ellie: Well, tell me...

(Alice takes a couple of deep breaths)

Alice: I... um, I've being having an affair!
Ellie: An affair, with someone married you mean?
Alice (nods): Yeah...
Ellie: Not Jack?!
Alice (shakes her head): God no!
Ellie: So who?

(Alice mumbles something)

Ellie: Huh?
Alice: I said Ryan.
Ellie: Ryan! (shrieks) Oh my god Alice... are you insane!
Alice: Maybe!
Ellie: I can't believe you. Sleeping with a married man! It's disgusting!
Alice (angry): Yeah... I know!
Ellie: Marriage is sacred Alice!

(Alice sighs and puts her head in her hands)

Ellie: Look at me Alice!

(Alice looks up at her sister)

Ellie: You disgust me!

[Ellie raises her hand and slaps her sister before storming out of the cafe. Alice starts to cry as the camera fades to black.]

Scene 9

[Camera fades in from black to show Sammy and Xavier in a near by park. Xavier is sat in a swing and Sammy is pushing him making the small child cry out with laughter, in the distance we can see Lottie setting up a picnic for the three of them]

(Sammy looks over his shoulder and gives Lottie a small smile, he is unable to turn away from her as she starts to run a brush through her hair. Camera cuts to Xavier who is unimpressed being ignored)

Xavier: da…daddy?

(Sammy snaps his head round unsure of what he has just heard)

Sammy: Xavier…did you just call me daddy?
Xavier: (Smiles) Daddy…dada!

(Sammy scoops Xavier up in to his arms and holds him against his chest)

Sammy: You clever little boy!

[Camera zooms in on Sammy’s face to show that he has tears in his eyes. Camera fades to black]

Scene 10

[The camera fades in from black to show the outside of the airport. In one of the airfields on a grassy patch of land there are a group of people gathered. Trudy and May approach the group and watch.]

(Similar to the scene from Series 3 with Ebony fighting Bray, Ebony stands in the middle of a circle.)

Ebony: The time for action is here. No more waiting.

[The camera pans back around to show Trudy and May raising eyebrows as they look at each other. Ebony picks up a staff and pokes the opponent as they begin to fight, the camera panning out to show the group before fading to black.]

Scene 11

[The camera fades in, Slade is walking fast along the corridor, the camera following him as he catches up with Bray.]

Slade (breathlessly): Oh Bray... I was hoping to catch you.

(Bray stops in his stride and looks to Slade)

Bray: Oh yeah? Whys that?
Slade: I wanted to talk to you about Trudy. I know she looks up to you like a big brother and that you have a past. But I wanted to ask you a question.
Bray (raises an eyebrow): You're not gonna propose to her are you?

(Slade shakes his head dramatically)

Slade: Nothing like that. I want to ask her to move in with me.
Bray: Yeah... that's fast.
Slade: Not really, we've been together for a while.
Bray: You have? Really?
Slade: Yeah... Trudy just wanted to keep it to yourselves. But anyway, that's not why I'm here... I don't want to discuss my relationship with Trudy. That's none of your business.
Bray: Uh-huh.
Slade: I just wanted to let you know that I do have feelings for her, that I love her and that I only want the best for her and Brady and that's why I'm going to ask her to move in.

(Bray glares at Slade and then shrugs)

Bray: Trudy's a grown woman. I can't stop you asking her. But all I would say is that, you harm a hair on her head or my niece and I'll kill you.

(Slade laughs)

Slade: Yeah, I can half believe you would. But from what I hear, you have more problems to deal with than me.
Bray: Hey... don't cross the line.
Slade: Whatever!

[Bray glares at Slade as Slade walks away down the corridor, the camera then fading to the next scene.]

Scene 12

[Tally is standing in the meeting room again. As she glances around we see that some of the Mallrats are interested what she has to say. Some of them do not seem to believe her.]

Tally: The Chosen are powerful. There is more than just the Guardian. Sure he's still around, nutty as ever. Even more so. But there's another leader. He's called Caleb.
Trudy (gasps): Caleb!

(The Mallrats frown and then raise eyebrows when it sinks in. Caleb of the Chosen was the Caleb that had been staying with the Mallrats several months ago)

Tally: You know him?
Bray: Let's just say he was a guest.
Tally: Well he knows things. I think he's the brain behind the Chosen.
Lex: What are they planning?
Tally: I don't know. They don't tell us much. All I know, is something is happening. Something soon!

[The camera pans to Tally and then fades to black.]

Scene 13

[The camera cuts in from the previous scene to show Enola walking down the corridor, Bray jnr holding her hand as she does.]

Enola: We're going to see your mum!

(Bray jnr cheers. Enola laughs as she knocks on Amber's bedroom door and waits for an acknowledgement as she opens the door. Bray jnr runs in and over to Amber)

Amber (smiling): Bray!
Bray jnr: Mummy!

(Amber laughs and Bray jnr climbs up onto the bed as he gives her a big hug and plants a kiss on her mouth)

Amber: Thank you Enola.
Enola (nods): No problem. I had some spare time on my hands.
Amber (raises an eyebrow): Not looking after Rain?

(Enola looks uncomfortable and can't look into Amber's eyes)

Amber: Sorry. I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable. I head that Calli left, and Bray's told me all about Rain. I just wondered how things were going.
Enola: Um, yeah okay.

(Amber nods and glances at Enola before turning her attention back to Bray jnr)

Amber: Have you done mummy a picture?
Bray jnr (nods): Yep!

[Camera pans back to Bray jnr and Amber, as Amber gazes at Enola and then back to her son before the picture fades to black.]

Scene 14

[Camera fades in from black to show Dreamer walking down an empty corridor as she turns round the corner she bumps into Apollo who is blocking her path]

Dreamer: (rolls her eyes) Apollo…let me past
Apollo: Not until we talk
Dreamer: We have nothing to talk about!

(Apollo looks hurt when Dreamer says this)

Apollo: What do you mean? Come on Dreamer last night was amazing!
Dreamer: (Shakes her head) No it wasn’t! I was drunk, it was a mistake
Apollo: Don’t say that
Dreamer: (Getting angry) Just drop it Apollo…unless you want me to tell everyone else what you did to me
Apollo: (Confused) What?
Dreamer: That you got me drunk just so that I would sleep with you, you took advantage of me last night Apollo

(Apollo is shocked by what Dreamer has just said and lets his guard down and Dreamer pushes past him)

[Apollo rests his head against the wall before the scene fades to black]

Scene 15

[Camera fades in from black to show May walking down the corridor she hears the sound of someone crying from behind a closes door. May steps closer and slowly pushes the door open, she is shocked to find Lex sat on the edge of the bed where Tai-San gave birth, he is holding on to Theo and crying to himself.]

(May walks into the room and sits next to Lex, he turns to her and she wraps an arm around him letting him cry against her shoulder)

[Camera pans out before fading to black]

Scene 16

[The camera fades in from the previous scene to show Amber in her bed, yelling out of the open doorway.]

Amber (shouts): Hello! Is anyone there? Hello?

(The camera pans around to show Trudy standing in the doorway)

Trudy: I was just coming Amber. What is it?
Amber: I need to get up. I need to get out of here.
Trudy: But you can't Amber. Your legs!
Amber (shakes her head): No. Out of this room now. This tribe is falling apart. We need to have a Council of War.
Trudy: What? Amber you can't lead something like that!

(Amber narrows her eyes at Trudy)

Amber: The Chosen are here again! You know what they did last time they were here. What happened to you... and to
Brady. Do you want that again?

(Trudy shakes her head)

Trudy: No. Of course not!
Amber: Then get me out of this damn bed so I can sort out this tribe once and for all. Before the whole tribe goes down the pan!

[Trudy nods weakly as she wheels Amber's wheelchair over to the bed and the camera pans to Amber's determined face before fading to black.]

Scene 17

[Camera fades in from black to show Apollo lying on his bed lost in his own thoughts. Phoenix appears from the doorway and knocks on the frame]

Phoenix: This my friend is called knocking…maybe you should give it a try once in awhile!
Apollo: Hmm…ok!
Phoenix: (raises an eyebrow) You ok bro?
Apollo: Yea I’m just dandy!

(Phoenix lets out a sigh and walks over to his brother)

Phoenix: Bro if something is wrong…and I know there is….but when you want to talk about it…I am here for you!
Apollo: (Smiles) Thanks bro!
Phoenix: Any time!

[Phoenix and Apollo high five each other before Phoenix taps his brother on the shoulder and walks out. Camera cuts to the following scene]

Scene 18

[Camera cuts back to show Lex and May sat on the bed while Theo sleeps in his cot, the two old friends are in a deep conversation]

May: of course she will be proud of you Lex, you are doing so well with bringing up Theo!
Lex: I try to do my best…I really do, but maybe it’s not good enough for him…he deserves better!

(Camera cuts to Theo who is sleeping peacefully before cutting back to Lex)

May: Don’t be so hard on yourself Lex…every boy needs their dad…and you’re a better dad then any of us had!
Lex: (Smiles) Thanks may
May: What are friends for

(May leans over and pulls Lex into a hug, as they start to pull away Lex tries to kiss her but May quickly pushes him away)

May: NO Lex!
Lex: I thought!
May: (shakes her head) I meant what I said we are just friends…Lex lets just pretend it never happened!
Lex: (Smiles) Deal!

[May and Lex share another hug just as Theo starts to cry, this time Lex pulls away and turns his attention to his son before the screen fades to black]

Scene 19

[The camera fades in, Ellie is sitting in her room staring at the wall as she frowns. Jack standing in the doorway smiles softly at Ellie, shuffling his feet until she notices him and smiles.]

Ellie: Oh, hey Jack.
Jack: Hows things?
Ellie: Pretty crappy!
Jack (frowns): I take it things didn't go well with Alice?

(Ellie shakes her head and sighs)

Ellie: We had a big argument... (starts to well up) ...and I said some horrible things to her!

(Jack moves over to the bed and hugs Ellie)

Jack: I'm sure she knew you didn't mean it!
Ellie (sobbing): But Jack... I shouldn't have said them!

(Ellie breaks down into full on sobs as she collapses against Jack)

Jack: Oh, come on sweetie... it can't be that bad!
Ellie: It is Jack... it is!
Jack: What is it? It's not just Alice is it?

(Ellie shakes her head and sobs into Jack's shoulder)

Ellie: I'm so sorry!
Jack: For what?
Ellie: I should have told you!
Jack: Told me what!

(Ellie sobs even harder and then pulls away to look up at Jack)

Ellie: I lost it...
Jack: What?
Ellie: Our baby Jack... I lost it!

(Ellie cries again, her body shakes as she sobs against Jack's shoulder. Jack looks bewildered and shocked and strokes Ellie's hair)

Jack: Sssh, it's okay... it's okay!

[Ellie continues to sobs as Jack strokes her hair, he rocks the pair of them gently and the sobs slowly subside. As he continues to stroke her hair he stops, some of the blonde strands in his hands as he frowns worriedly and the camera fades on his look.]

Scene 20

[The camera fades in. Trudy is outside at the airport pegging sheets onto the makeshift washing line. The camera pans around to show Bray approaching from the other side of the line as he stops.]

Trudy: Bray... what do you want?
Bray: To apologise.
Trudy: What could you possibly have to apologise for?
Bray: I've been an idiot Trudy. I didn't mean to mess things up with me and Amber, I didn't mean to cheat with Danni and I didn't mean to be mean to you. I've just taken my anger out on you.

(Trudy raises an eyebrow)

Trudy: Apology accepted.
Bray: I...

(Trudy sighs and puts her hands on her hips)

Trudy: What?
Bray: I wanted to talk to you.
Trudy: Bray, I don't really want to be involved with what's going on with you.
Bray: But...
Trudy: What! It's none of my business.
Bray: Well, I wanted to let you know that it is. It affects Brady.
Trudy: Huh?!
Bray: Rain... she's my daughter. She's Brady's cousin.

(Trudy nods)

Bray: You knew?
Trudy: I had heard a rumour.
Bray: Oh.
Trudy: How's it going with Rain?
Bray: Yeah. It's going. I got her and Bray jnr to meet the other day.
Trudy: You did?
Bray: Yeah.
Trudy: Did you tell Amber?

(Bray looks away)

Trudy: You didn't, did you?
Bray (shakes his head): No!
Trudy: God Bray! You're such an asshole!
Bray: Hey!
Trudy: You know... I thought your apology was for real. It's just a pile of shit. Just like you, you're full of it!

[Trudy glares at Bray and shakes her head in disgust before storming off, the camera panning to show Bray's face before fading to black.]

Scene 21

[Camera fades in, Tally is sitting in one of the spare rooms at the airport. Alice knocks on the door and Tally looks up.]

Alice: Can I come in?
Tally (nods): Sure.
Alice: Thanks.

(Alice walks in and sits down on the bed next to Tally)

Alice: It's been a while hasn't it.
Tally (nods): Yes Alice. It's at least three years since...
Alice: ...since Ned?
Tally (nods): All that time... and I've nothing to show for it... nothing! I've made a mess of everything. Of my whole life.

(Alice puts an arm around Tally)

Alice: You can't be so hard on yourself kid. You know that when Ned died, I fell apart, he was my life and I wasn't there for you. I don't suppose that helped and then the whole invasion, everything was a mess again.
Tally (nods): I know. When me and Andy went to the airfield all those years ago, we were captured along with KC. We got separated pretty quickly, and our group was captured by a Chosen group. Things went from bad to worse then. Andy became a fanatic and well... he killed himself Alice. He became a suicide bomber! My twin... how could he!
Alice: I don't know sweetie....
Tally: Oh Alice!

(Tally sobs and rests her head against Alice as she puts her head in her hands)

Alice: Come on Tally.

[Alice comforts Tally as the camera fades in on Tally's face before fading to black.]

Scene 22

[The camera cuts in from the previous scene to show Ellie standing in her room, she lifts the headscarf that she is wearing over her head and gently parts her hair to show her scalp. We can see that some of Ellie's hair is missing. She picks up a comb and runs it gently through her hair, tears at the corner of her eyes as she does.]

Ellie (weeping): Why?

[Ellie moves the comb from her head and we see that there is some more hair in the comb. She breaks down into sobs and places the headscarf back on before running to the bed and crawling under the bed, the camera panning to her sobbing face before fading to black.]

Scene 23

[Camera fades in from black to show Sammy and Lottie packing away their picnic while Xavier sleeps in his pushchair. With everything packed away they head back to the airport with Sammy pushing Xavier and Lottie holding onto his arm]

Lottie: it’s been nice today…even with everything with the chosen we can still enjoy days out!
Sammy: (nods) we’re not going to let the Chosen ruin our lives…not this time!
Lottie: I know that and I’m not scared and do you know why…it’s cause I have you by my side!
Sammy: (Smiles) Forever

(Sammy leans down and the couple share a kiss. The sound of screaming in the distance causes them to break apart)

Lottie: (Laughs) All the same I would rather be at the airport
Sammy: Got ya!

[The couple quickly move through the streets back towards their home, camera fades to black]

Scene 24

[Camera fades in from black to show that most of the Mallrats have gathered in the canteen, the room falls silence as Bray stands up]

Bray: (Speaks up) As you are all aware the Chosen are back and no matter how much we try and bury our heads in the sand they aren’t going to disappear and so my friends I have to ask you once again who is prepared to fight for this city and our future as if what Tally has told us is true, then the Chosen have one main goal at the moment and that is to see all Mallrats are dead!

(No one dares to speak as Bray looks around the room)

Bray: So raise your hands if you are prepared to fight back against the chosen?

(In unison everyone raises their hand and Bray feels a sense of pride and cant hide his smile)

Bray: Good…now we wont be going in blind as a old friend as decided to spy for us!

(Everyone turns to face Tally who has just walked into the canteen)

Tally: Not to much pressure then!

[The Mallrats break out in cheers as the thought of defeating the chosen feels their minds. Camera fades to black]

Tally: (Clears her throat) KC…I know you hate me right now and I don’t blame you, I hate myself more then anyone else could know…but I just wanted you to know that Patsy is ok…she’s still alive…I’ve seen her

(Kc doesn’t respond)

Tally: If you wanted me to pass on a message to her I could!

(KC slowly turns to face her)

KC: Would you do that for me?
Tally: (Nods) Of course
KC: (Smiles for the first time in ages) Thank you!

[Camera pans out as Tally takes a seat next to KC, as he tells her the message. Camera slowly fades to black]
