Mother's Ruin

Ross and Caitlin have been in a relationship for 6 months, with Caitlin all but moving in to Dale View Cottage, but turning up for work one day will prove to be life changing when she's sure of a big surprise, in the form of someone in Ross's distant past

DALE VIEW COTTAGE - MORNING

Caitlin is sitting at the dining room table dressed in her nurse's uniform ready to go to work, she is reading the paper as she eats her breakfast and drinks her coffee, Ross enters from upstairs pulling on his t-shirt

ROSS: Hey, why didn't you wake me, I'll be late for work?

CAITLIN: Cause you looked so gorgeous I just couldn't bring myself to

Ross laughs

ROSS: Well I'm in total agreement there, but you still could've woke me

CAITLIN: Yeah, yeah ok, well I don't think you'll be strung up from the ceiling for being a few minutes late. Come and have breakfast, you're already late, few more minutes won't make any difference

Ross relents and moves towards the dining table, he sits down and pours himself coffee from the percolator

ROSS: You seem calm and relaxed, when do you start, clearly not 9am?

CAITLIN: No, I'm not in till 11am, ha-ha and we have student nurses and agency staff in, so that'll be fun, thought I'd have a leisurely breakfast since Milana's at Aaron's

ROSS: She's nearly always at Aaron's

CAITLIN: Well what can I say? She's clearly more of a Daddy's girl than a Mummy's girl, she seems to want to see more of him than me, I try not to take it personally, anyway, and you weren't complaining last night

Caitlin smiles flirtatiously at Ross

ROSS: No, but I'll complain now you've made me late

Caitlin gets up from her seat, she moves towards Ross, she kisses his neck, taking his hand, pulling him up from the chair, she leads him towards the living room door

CAITLIN: Tell you what, how about I make you even more late?

Caitlin drags Ross by the hand upstairs

ROSS: No, I'll be killed; you have met Cain and Debbie right?

CAITLIN: Shhhhh

Caitlin pulls Ross towards her by his t-shirt and kisses him, wrapping her arms around his neck, he pulls back

ROSS: You're a really bad influence, do you know that?

CAITLIN: Takes one to know one

Caitlin smiles and moves back in to kiss Ross, he pulls away again

ROSS: I can't

Ross heads back downstairs

CAITLIN: Alright, if you're sure

Ross looks back to see Caitlin no longer in her nurses uniform, instead he's confronted by sexy undergarments and an enticing smile, he races back upstairs towards Caitlin

ROSS: You're absolutely right, I've slept in

Caitlin smiles as she pulls Ross's t-shirt over his head, kissing his neck, working her way back up to his lips

CAITLIN: Yeah and I'm pretty sure you'd rather be working under my bonnet, right?

Ross pushes Caitlin backwards towards the bedroom

A while later

Finn enters, he heads upstairs, calling Ross's name, he enters Ross's bedroom.

Ross and Caitlin spring up from the bed, visibly undressed and dishevelled, they stare at Finn, surprised

Finn turns his head, shocked and embarrassed

FINN: OH MY GOD, YOU COULD LEAVE A WARNING SIGN

ROSS: You could've knocked

FINN: I didn't think there was any need, I didn't think you'd be doing, that. I've just seen Debbie, she's wondering why you're not at work, well now I know

CAITLIN: What time is it?

FINN: Ten to eleven

Caitlin stares at Ross, stunned, she smacks his arm

CAITLIN: OH MY GOD ROSS

Ross laughs

ROSS: What? It was your idea to come back to bed, not mine

Caitlin jumps out of the bed, she grapples with her clothes on the floor

CAITLIN: I'm gonna be so late now

Ross casually lies back on the bed

ROSS: Well I'm already late thanks to you, so you know

FINN: I really don't need to see this

Caitlin is putting on her underwear

CAITLIN: I didn't hear you complaining just now

FINN: I'll take it you'll be needing this?

Finn, still with his head turned hands Caitlin her nurse's uniform, she grabs it from him

CAITLIN: Thanks Finn, at least someone is being helpful

ROSS: Think I helped you out enough this morning

Ross clicks his tongue and winks at Caitlin

Caitlin is climbing into her uniform

CAITLIN: Shut up, you perv

Ross laughs

ROSS: Me a perv, who was the one stripping us both and dragging me in here?

CAITLIN: Shut up and get dressed

Caitlin throws Ross's t-shirt and jeans at him

FINN: Debbie wants you to go and pick up some parts or something

CAITLIN: Excellent, you can give me a lift to work and still get to spend time with me – bonus

ROSS: It won't be a bonus, you've worn me out

FINN: SERIOUSLY TMI

Ross sits up in the bed, putting his t-shirt on as Caitlin struggles with her uniform and tights, she sits on the bed

ROSS: Are you sure you wanna put that on?

FINN: YOU'RE LATE

Ross and Caitlin both move off the bed, Ross puts his jeans on and they head towards the door

CAITLIN: Does my hair look alright?

Ross ruffles Caitlin's head as they reach the bottom of the stairs

ROSS: No

Ross laughs as Finn opens the front door

CAITLIN: ROSS

ROSS: What? You look gorgeous, who cares?

Caitlin smiles as she makes sure she's got everything

CAITLIN: Bag, keys, think I've got everything

ROSS: Yeah and me, lets go

They all exit the cottage and head to the garage, Debbie looks bemused when she see's them all

DINGLE AND DINGLE GARAGAE - MORNING

DEBBIE: Oh, nice of you to join us Ross, what time do you call this?

ROSS: 11am?

DEBBIE: Oh, you can tell the time can you? Shame you couldn't tell it 2 hours ago

ROSS: Slept in

DEBBIE: Sexed in more like it. You wanna bonk your girlfriend, do it in your own time, not mine

Caitlin looks embarrassed as James and Chas approach

CAITLIN: Yeah, thanks for that, so are we going or what? I'm late

JAMES: Sounds like you should be spending less time in bed

ROSS: Keys?

Caitlin smiles at James and Chas

Debbie throws the keys to the truck to Ross

CAITLIN: Gotta go, I'm so late

Ross and Caitlin move towards the truck

JAMES: My son's still a bad influence then?

CAITLIN: No, it was me actually

Caitlin laughs, looking back at James and Chas; they smile as Caitlin gets inside the truck

JAMES: Well have a good day

CAITLIN: Thanks, you too

Ross drives away from the garage

ROSS: Would you stop sucking up to my dad please?

Caitlin laughs

CAITLIN: Exchanging the time of day isn't sucking up

ROSS: Yeah, yeah, whatever

Caitlin looks over at Ross

CAITLIN: Still scared I find him insanely attractive are ya? Well he did make you so I could be tempted

ROSS: Grose, you're disgusting

Caitlin laughs loudly

ROSS: No, I just don't know why you bother

CAITLIN: Cause he's a nice guy Ross, I don't have a problem with him and I'm not gonna be rude to him just cause it suits you, sorry

ROSS: He deludes people into thinking he's nice

CAITLIN: Right, well he hasn't done anything to me, so can we just leave this, please?

Ross relents and drops the subject

Caitlin pulls out a mirror and fixes her hair

Ross turns his head from the windscreen to look at Caitlin; he looks at her, amused

ROSS: Need a hand there?

CAITLIN: No I think you've done enough thanks

ROSS: I think you'll find that was you

Ross pulls over

CAITLIN: What are you doing?

ROSS: Well if I'm gonna be accused of things I might as well be doing them

Ross stretches over to Caitlin and starts kissing her neck, she starts laughing

CAITLIN: No, no, no, no, no, don't you dare, I am soooooo late

ROSS: There are plenty of excuses, you could always phone in sick

CAITLIN: No, they'll kill me, now let's go

Caitlin shoves Ross off her

ROSS: Killjoy

CAITLIN: Oh just get me to work and thank you in kind later

ROSS: I'll hold you to that

Ross starts the engine and drives away

Half an hour later

HOTTEN GENERAL HOSPITAL CAR PARK – MORNING

Ross pulls up in the hospital car park; Caitlin grabs her stuff and opens the door

CAITLIN: Right, I'll see you later

ROSS: Eh, excuse me, aren't you forgetting something?

Ross sticks his lips out, Caitlin smiles

CAITLIN: Ross, I'm late, the last thing I need is to get caught kissing in the car park

ROSS: It's alright, we can do detention together, I'll just say you were giving me mouth to mouth and that you're the best nurse I've ever seen

Ross winks, Caitlin leans over and kisses him quickly

CAITLIN: There, now go away please

Caitlin gets out of the truck; she leans down to the window

CAITLIN: Bye

ROSS: See'ya

Caitlin walks through the car park

ROSS: WHOOOOOO, THAT UNIFORM'S SO SEXY, WORK IT BABY

Caitlin stops as people in the car park look round, she looks round at Ross, shaking her head, Ross smiles through the window at her, she continues walking towards the hospital entrance, noticed by a doctor leaving his car

HOTTEN GENERAL HOSPITAL – MORNING

Caitlin rushes through the corridors of the hospital to the changing rooms, she quickly puts her stuff in a locker and goes out sneaking towards the desk station where a group of nurses are congregated, taking instructions

DR. STEVENS: Nice of you to tear yourself away from your boyfriend in the car park and come to work Nurse Kennedy

Caitlin looks embarrassed as everyone looks round at her, she smiles apologetically

Dr. Stevens turns round to continue talking

A Nurse leans over to speak to Caitlin; they begin a whispered conversation over the Dr. talking

AGENCY NURSE: Don't worry, I was a bit late as well, he seems a bit of a grump

Caitlin smiles

CAITLIN: Yeah he is, never usually not

AGENCY NURSE: It'll be fun working here then

CAITLIN: Are you an agency nurse then?

AGENCY NURSE: Yeah, unfortunately, have to take what you can get don't you? I'd prefer a proper full time nursing gig, but there don't seem to be many

CAITLIN: Yeah, well I'm a full time nurse here, so there must be jobs going sometime, you should keep an eye out

AGENCY NURSE: Yeah, I will, thanks. I'm Emma by the way

Emma puts out her hand to shake Caitlin's, Caitlin reciprocates

CAITLIN: I'm Caitlin, nice to meet you

EMMA: Caitlin, that's Irish isn't it?

CAITLIN: Yeah, it is, most of my family names are Irish I think, I think my dad's family has Irish connections

EMMA: You sound Australian

CAITLIN: Yeah I was born there

DR. STEVENS: Right, everyone to work, if there's any danger of anyone doing any that is, perhaps some people would like to start a gossip column

Dr. Stevens stares at Caitlin and Emma, they look awkward

CAITLIN: Yes Dr. Stevens, off to work we go

Caitlin and Emma walk off together

EMMA: With a bottle of rum and a…

CAITLIN: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it

Caitlin and Emma smile at each other

A few hours later

HOTTEN GENERAL HOSPITAL – AFTERNOON

Caitlin is in the staff room making a cup of coffee when Emma enters

EMMA: Hey, crazy shift isn't it?

CAITLIN: Yup, can't wait for it to be over

Caitlin takes a sandwich out of the fridge and sits down at the table with her coffee; Emma is already sitting with a sandwich and a bottle of juice

CAITLIN: Did you want a coffee?

EMMA: No I'm alright ta, got this

Caitlin smiles and opens her sandwich

EMMA: So how long have you worked here then?

CAITLIN: Oh ever since I came back. I used to live here, then my ex moved to France with his boyfriend and we just had a baby, so I moved over there, then I went to visit the family in Oz, then to London for a bit, now here I am

Emma looks confused

EMMA: You lost me ten miles back, ex boyfriend moved to France with his boyfriend

CAITLIN: Oh yeah, my ex, Aaron, he's gay, he was in denial at the time, it's a long story, not sure there's time to tell it now

EMMA: I'll look forward to hearing about it. You had a kid with him, that's pretty massive?

CAITLIN: Yeah, well even gay guys have the right to have kids, it was weird at first, but we share custody and it's all good

EMMA: That's cool, that you can do that, not sure I'd be so understanding

Caitlin bites her sandwich

CAITLIN: Yeah well I wasn't at first trust me, but you work through things. What about you, do you have any kids?

EMMA: I do, but not seen them in years. I made a mistake; my husband didn't take it well and kicked me out

CAITLIN: Wow, that sucks. How many do you have?

EMMA: Three boys, my eldest would be 26 now, my middle one 24 and my youngest 22

CAITLIN: Oh, so all quite close together then.You thought about getting in touch?

EMMA: I kept an eye on them for a while, but I don't know where they are now

CAITLIN: You could do an internet search

EMMA: Yeah I've thought about it. You're so lucky having your kid, how old is she?

CAITLIN: She's 4, Milana Grace, she's a little monkey, I swear she likes my boyfriend more than her dad; they're quite sweet together really

EMMA: Awwwe, that's nice, your boyfriend connects with her, must be a relief

CAITLIN: Yeah, he's quite funny with her, it's cute

EMMA: Often wondered if my husband moved on and my boys got a new mother

Catlin sips her coffee and bites her sandwich

CAITLIN: Well you should track them down and find out

Caitlin's phone beeps, she opens the text message

EMMA: I'm not sure they'd wanna know

CAITLIN: Well you never know till you try. Oh it's the boyfriend, checking he's still on a promise later. We were both late for work cause I dragged him back to bed

EMMA: Oh, bit of morning delight huh?

CAITLIN: We don't get that much time together when Milana's around so I we take advantage as much as possible of her being at her dads, and he's so hot I can't resist

EMMA: Let's have a look then

Caitlin brings up a picture of Ross on her phone and shows Emma

EMMA: Oh yeah, he's fit

Caitlin scrolls her photos; she brings up a photo of Ross and Milana

CAITLIN: That's him with my daughter, cute right?

EMMA: Sweet. What's his name?

Caitlin is distracted looking through her pictures

CAITLIN: He's called Ross

Emma's smile fades as Caitlin shows her a photo of Aaron and Milana

CAITLIN: That's Milana with her dad, Aaron

EMMA: He's cute, too cute to be gay

CAITLIN: Oh I'm over it, Ross is just as cute

EMMA: My son's called Ross

CAITLIN: Oh yeah, common name really. What about your other two?

Caitlin gets up from the table with her sandwich packaging and coffee cup; she walks towards the kitchen counter

EMMA: Pete and Finn, my husband's called James

Caitlin is stunned by what Emma has said, she looks round

CAITLIN: What about the last name? You know I can look them up for you, you never know

EMMA: Barton. I guess the boys could be on that Facebook or Twitter sites

Caitlin tries to hide her shock

CAITLIN: Yeah, well you never know. Anyway, I better get back

Caitlin picks up her phone and rushes towards the door

CAITLIN: See you out there

EMMA: Yup

Caitlin stands outside the staff room door in disbelief as she realises she has just met Ross's estranged mother

A few hours later

HOTTEN GENERAL HOSPITAL ENTRANCE – EVENING

Caitlin is standing outside, distracted as Emma approaches

EMMA: Hey, I hope you don't think this is too weird since we've only just met, but do you fancy going for a drink? You seem really nice and we could continue our chat from lunch

Caitlin looks at Emma, still distracted

CAITLIN: Oh no thanks I've gotta get back, Milana's coming back from Aaron's tonight, well unless I can persuade him to go for an extra night that is, the boyfriend's on a promise remember

EMMA: Oh yeah, Ross

CAITLIN: Yeah, Ross

EMMA: Oh well, maybe another time then yeah?

CAITLIN: Yeah maybe, I better go, I'll miss my bus

EMMA: Boyfriend not picking you up then?

CAITLIN: No, he's still working cause we were late, he should be home by the time I'm back though. I'll see you later

Caitlin rushes off through the car park, disturbed by the days events

DALE VIEW COTTAGE – EVENING

Caitlin enters the cottage, she hears the sound of Milana and looks over at the dining table, Milana is sitting with her back to Caitlin and Ross is facing her, she looks on at them for a few minutes

ROSS: You're a mucky little pup you aren't you?

Milana laughs

MILANA: I love pasgetti hoops

ROSS: Spaghetti hoops silly

Milana laughs

MILANA: No it isn't, I'm not silly, you're silly

ROSS: No more spaghetti hoops for you then

Caitlin approaches the doorway, she stands watching them as she leans against the frame

MILANA: Are you not having any hoops, apart from hula hoops?

ROSS: No I'm waiting for your mum

CAITLIN: Hey, I'm here

MILANA: MUMMMMY, LOOK WHAT ROSS MADE ME

CAITLIN: Yeah, is there any left for me?

Caitlin bends down to Milana, kissing her on the forehead

CAITLIN: Hey sweetie

MILANA: You can have some of mine if you want?

CAITLIN: No it's ok, you eat it all up. Did you have a good time at your dad's?

MILANA: Hmmm, he was a bit grumpy, I'm glad to be back with Ross

Caitlin and Ross both laugh

ROSS: Hey, hi-five kiddo

Milana and Ross hi-five each other

MILANA: Don't tell Daddy though, he'll be cross, he might hurt Ross

CAITLIN: Oh don't worry; Daddy's always cross at Ross

ROSS: Hey, whose side are you on?

CAITLIN: I'm thinking about it

Caitlin smiles as Ross puts on a pretend sad face

MILANA: Is there any pudding for me? Toast and pasgetti isn't very filling

ROSS: Maybe, you can only have some if you say spaghetti though

MILANA: Pasgetti

Ross picks up the tin of spaghetti from the worktop and bends down to Milana

ROSS: No, look, break it down, spag-hetti

MILANA: Spa-ghetti

ROSS: See you can do it

MILANA: I deserve a sticker, but I'll take pudding as a reward instead

Ross and Caitlin laugh, Caitlin strokes the top of Milana's head

CAITLIN: You thinking of going into education you?

ROSS: No, why, do you think I'd be good at it?

CAITLIN: Oh yeah, gold star spelling teacher

Ross puts his hand up to hi-five Milana again, he gets up and goes over to the freezer, Caitlin follows

ROSS: Will ice cream do you madam?

MILANA: Do we have any chocolate puddings?

ROSS: There's chocolate ice cream

MILANA: I'll have that then

Caitlin takes a glass from the drainer and takes a drink from the kitchen tap, she turns to face Ross, he puts the ice cream on the worktop and wraps his arms round Caitlin's waist, he leans down and kisses her neck, she feels awkward

ROSS: How about we put someone to bed early and you can keep that promise from this morning?

Ross leans back down, kissing Caitlin's neck again

CAITLIN: I can't, I've got stuff to do

ROSS: Like what? You did promise

CAITLIN: Like having a shower, eating, putting on a wash and doing some research for work

ROSS: Well there's at least two of these things we can do together

Milana creeps up behind Ross, she pulls on his t-shirt

MILANA: The ice cream will melt

CAITLIN: Exactly, you two have the ice cream; I'll go and get a shower

Caitlin pushes Ross off her and walks out the door and up the stairs, she closes the bedroom door and pulls out the laptop from the bedside table, she opens up a web browser, opens up several tabs, she opens Facebook in one, Twitter in another and Google, she does a search for "Emma Barton" in all of the tabs

Ross comes in and surprises her; she slams the lid of the laptop down

CAITLIN: Hey, I thought you were having ice cream?

ROSS: Oh yeah, what you up to, checking out porn sites? Thought that was my job

CAITLIN: No I'm checking dating sites, there's always hope

ROSS: Oh, charming. I thought you were going for a shower?

Ross wraps his arms around Caitlin's neck from behind

ROSS: Or do you just wanna give me my present now?

CAITLIN: No, and if you're not careful you'll never get another present again, now go downstairs and watch Milana please, she could've destroyed the place in the time you've been up here and guess who'll be cleaning it up?

ROSS: You are so harsh. Right, well, I might just go to the pub then

CAITLIN: Eh, wait till I've had my shower first please

ROSS: Well hurry up then, porn addict

Caitlin hits Ross with a towel she picks up from the bed

ROSS: I could pull my jeans down and you could kiss that better, then we'd be half way there

CAITLIN: Disgusting

Milana opens the bedroom door, Ross and Caitlin both look round, Milana looks worried

ROSS: Uh oh, what have you done?

Milana whispers

MILANA: I wish I was as tall as you. I tried putting more ice cream in my bowl, but it tipped upside down and it's on the floor now

CAITLIN: Oh Milana, I told you not to help yourself to things, you wait for a grown up

MILANA: Ross is a grown up but he left

CAITLIN: Yeah, well as his punishment he can help you clear it up

MILANA: Are you going to stop Ross's pocket money as well as mine too?

ROSS: I don't get pocket money; I just get kisses, etc. etc. Come on, let's go and sort out your mess, at least it wasn't the spaghetti hoops, that'd be more disgusting

Ross and Milana leave the room, but they can still be heard

MILANA: What does etc. etc. mean, what else do you get from mummy?

ROSS: Just cuddles

MILANA: But you said etc. twice, which means it's more than one thing

ROSS: You're a right little chatterbox you aren't you? Come on, clean up your mess

Caitlin opens the laptop and shuts down the search, she grabs a towel and goes into the bathroom

Half an hour later

Caitlin enters from upstairs in a red silk dressing gown, her wet hair flowing around her shoulders

ROSS: About time

CAITLIN: What's for dinner?

ROSS: Pizza, chips, burgers, takeaway, dunno

CAITLIN: Do we ever eat anything healthy in this house?

Caitlin flunks herself on the couch and starts towel drying her hair as Ross plays on his play station and Milana sits at the table drawing

ROSS: Pizza's got healthy stuff on it, not sure that counts though

MILANA: Do you want a hand with your hair mummy?

CAITLIN: Not tonight no, I'm in a hurry

MILANA: I can be quick

ROSS: Hmmm, so can I

Ross looks flirtatiously at Caitlin

CAITLIN: Shut your face, told you, I'm busy

ROSS: Yeah, yeah, busy giving me the brush off by the looks of it, I'll take my hurt and offended body to the pub now then

CAITLIN: Actually, could you put her to bed?

ROSS: What do I get out of it?

CAITLIN: Her sparkling company and my undying gratitude

Caitlin smiles

MILANA: I drew you a picture Ross

ROSS: You already owe me something

CAITLIN: Yeah, so that's two promises I owe you, it'll be worth the wait

Caitlin smiles at Ross

MILANA: What did you promise mummy?

CAITLIN: Never you mind

MILANA: It's not fair, no-one ever tells me anything. Come and see my picture Ross

Ross moves over to the table

ROSS: Who is it?

MILANA: It's you and me and Finn and mummy on a day out at the funfair

ROSS: My head doesn't look like that, it's too oval and big

CAITLIN: She's got you marked then, big headed, ha-ha

MILANA: Where are you going to put it?

ROSS: In the bin

Milana looks upset

ROSS: I can't let anyone see me like that when they come to visit. I might put it in my room

MILANA: We can take it up now then since I'm going to bed, but I'm not having a bath first

Caitlin looks round

CAITLIN: Eh, Milana, you'll do as your told young lady

MILANA: I had one at daddy's, Victoria helped me

CAITLIN: That was this morning. Don't tell lies Milana

MILANA: No, it was just before I came home, I'm not lying, I promise

Ross picks Milana up off the chair

ROSS: Ok then, let's go, the pub'll be closed by the time I get there

MILANA: You have to read me a story

ROSS: It'll be a very quick one

Ross takes Milana over to Caitlin, Milana leans down to kiss Caitlin goodnight

MILANA: Ross's better at the voices than daddy is, daddy doesn't make a lot of effort

CAITLIN: Do you know I'm starting to think you fancy Ross

ROSS: Well you can hardly blame her, I mean look at me

CAITLIN: You selling tickets to this promotional event?

MILANA: Don't be silly mummy, Ross's too old for me, even though I said I'd marry him when I'm older and I don't like kissing

Ross laughs

CAITLIN: How do you know you don't like kissing?

MILANA: A boy at playgroup kissed me in a game, it was slimy and horrible

CAITLIN: Yup, that's men for you, slimy and horrible

MILANA: Ross isn't

Ross laughs again

CAITLIN: Did you pay her for this one woman fan club thing you've got going on?

ROSS: Course, kids are easily bribed, anyway, are we going upstairs now?

MILANA: I suppose so, night mummy

CAITLIN: Night night

Ross and Milana leave the room; Caitlin's smile fades as she thinks about Emma

Half an hour later

THE WOOLPACK – EVENING

Ross is standing at the dart board with Aaron, Adam and Cain when Caitlin enters

ROSS: Hey, you come to give me that present?

CAITLIN: You wish, Milana's left her teddy and a couple of other things here

AARON: Where is Milana?

CAITLIN: I left her tying sheets together at home so she could go abseiling

Aaron and Ross look at each other

CAITLIN: She's with Finn, see when you pack her stuff; do you think you could pack it all instead of leaving half of it here please?

Caitlin goes past and round the bar into the back

AARON: God, what's up her nose?

ROSS: Dunno, she's been a bit weird since she got in from work. Wrong time of the month maybe

Ross shrugs

WOOLPACK LIVING AREA – EVENING

Caitlin comes down from upstairs just as James enters the living room, she enters the living room

JAMES: Hey

CAITLIN: Hey

JAMES: Anything wrong?

CAITLIN: Oh I just came to get Milana's things that were left here

James smiles

CAITLIN: Look, this might seem a bit random but I just wanted to ask, the boys mum, what did she do, for a living I mean?

JAMES: You're right, it is random, what do you want to know for?

CAITLIN: Curious

James frowns at Caitlin

JAMES: A nurse, she was a nurse

CAITLIN: Oh ok, cool, right, well I better get going, I left Milana with Finn, see you later

Caitlin stands outside the living room door, thinking what to do for the best, now she knows Emma is who she thinks she is
