00:02This trip of Mike's, there's been no end date.
00:05I haven't said anything because I'm afraid of what he might say.
00:08We are damaged.
00:09Still, I shouldn't mean to give up. I'm trying to be happy though.
00:11I have to break up with Mike.
00:13Four-way partnership.
00:14Leo is in back-to-back meetings, so I'll be in charge.
00:16I don't see any genuine signs that you want to make this work.
00:20I mean, one minute you were clashing with Sasha.
00:22I was attracted to him.
00:24Sorry, I heard you lost your wife.
00:26It was a little bit weird being in the house.
00:27Are you okay to get started here?
00:31Neighbours
00:34Everybody needs good neighbours
00:38With a little understanding
00:43You can find the perfect blend
00:49Neighbours
00:51Should be there for one another
00:56That's when good neighbours
00:59Become good friends
01:30Don't you worry, cause it's alright
01:34Don't you worry, child of the night
01:37Cause in the morning come, with the new day of sun
01:41Love will never last in line
01:45We've got a sea of money
01:48Power up
01:53Alright, alright
01:59Mummy, you are absolutely sure about this?
02:03No, I've known it in my heart for a while.
02:09I just haven't been able to say the words out loud.
02:13Not to myself, or to any of you.
02:19How do you think Mike's going to take it?
02:25I honestly don't know.
02:34This is ridiculous.
02:35I'm not avoiding you.
02:36But you have been.
02:38Are we ever going to talk about what I said the other day?
02:41What's the point?
02:43I admitted that I was attracted to Sasha.
02:46Maybe that angered you, maybe you feel vindicated, I don't know.
02:49How do you feel?
02:51We broke up.
02:53You don't have to go over every detail.
02:56I would really like to tell you the whole story.
02:59Because I've thought about it a lot since then.
03:01Look, I appreciate the honesty, but there's nothing more to say.
03:17So apparently most of the residents wrote letters for JJ.
03:20Well, hopefully the education department changed their tune.
03:22Yeah, but don't forget Jane said don't get your hopes up.
03:26Hi, where's the music?
03:27I was promised a rave.
03:30Are you okay?
03:32Yeah, yeah, yeah.
03:34I've just done the first coat of the stains.
03:37I don't know, maybe the fumes have gone in my head.
03:40Are you feeling a bit dizzy?
03:43A little bit.
03:44I might have to kind of skip out on the rest of the day if that's okay.
03:47Yeah, absolutely.
03:49We've got it covered from here.
03:50Before you go, I've got some letters for you.
03:53Oh, your redirection stuff?
03:55Yeah, well, I thought I gave everyone my new address.
03:58Oh, well, I thought you might want your subscription.
04:01That's not mine, it's Nell's.
04:04All right, I'll see you guys later.
04:05Okay.
04:10Well, looks like it's just you and me.
04:13Tempting, but we've got a better offer.
04:18I'm going to see the stick.
04:20Okay.
04:46Forgotten where you live?
04:51Are you all right?
04:55It's from Dee.
04:56It's so weird.
04:57Is it? I thought you stayed in touch.
05:00Yeah, kind of.
05:01You know, Christmas time and Hugo's birthday.
05:07I've been working in the sunroom.
05:09Oh, yes, the great roof collapse.
05:11Therese mentioned that to me.
05:12And Cara had to go into work, so I was left in the old place on my own,
05:16which was a bit strange, but, you know, I was cracking on with it.
05:19And then this song comes on her playlist.
05:22Okay.
05:24It was one of the songs that Sonia and I played on the day that she died.
05:29Well, imagine why that would make you feel emotional.
05:32I had to turn the thing off.
05:34And then Remy gives me the mail and there's a postcard from Dee.
05:40Are you upset?
05:42No.
05:45I don't know.
05:48I feel weird.
05:50I don't understand it.
05:55It's in this huge bar.
05:57Oh, worst cosmetic ever.
05:58Yeah, but the bartender felt so bad for us, worse his heart,
06:01that he put on a Katie Lang song.
06:03Like that makes every lesbian I've ever met.
06:07Well, kind of, actually.
06:11Hey.
06:12Hi.
06:13We're hearing about Pride on Magnetic Island.
06:16Right.
06:17I'm looking for Byron.
06:18He sent me a text.
06:20He should be home soon.
06:27We'll just wait inside then, shall I?
06:33Yeah, so you two are awkward.
06:36Yep, I told you.
06:37Did something else happen?
06:39She confessed something to me the other day,
06:41basically confirmed my suspicions about why we'd broken up.
06:44Did that help you, hearing that?
06:47She wants to tell me the whole story and I just think, why bother?
06:51I mean, you are business partners now.
06:53Yeah, I just want to put it in the too high basket.
07:00It's Leo.
07:01He wants to talk to me about the vineyard.
07:06Since when are they so chummy chummy?
07:08I don't know.
07:09I guess they just hit it off.
07:11I've been back for months and we have never just hit it off.
07:14Are you automatically meant to be friends because you're all queer?
07:17Yes.
07:18Okay.
07:19No, but we are queer neighbours and that is meant to be exciting.
07:22But no, Kiri's been back for five minutes
07:25and they're already exchanging Katie Lang stories.
07:28Why do you think Kara and Remy have never wanted to hang out with me?
07:33Maybe because it's of your terrible social skills.
07:36Excuse me?
07:38Just a thought.
07:40I'm out.
07:41Yeah, I've got to go too.
07:42See you later.
07:44I don't have terrible social skills.
07:46Hey, look, can we talk about Mum?
07:48I'm a great conversationalist.
07:50You're a drama queen.
07:52I challenge people.
07:54I push people's boundaries.
07:56What about Mum?
07:59Mum wants to break up with Mike and we both need to be there for her.
08:06That's huge.
08:08Has she really thought this through?
08:11She says she has and I can't say it's the wrong decision.
08:15They both deserve more than a long-distance relationship.
08:18Yeah.
08:20So you'll put your stuff aside and be there for her?
08:22Of course I will, stupid.
08:27If Mike and Mum are splitting, what does this mean for Sam?
08:36Okay.
08:38Here you go.
08:40So what are you thinking?
08:41You going to talk to Rose?
08:44What would I say?
08:46We are in a good place right now.
08:48We really are.
08:50I don't want to say, hey, I've been having these weird reminders of Dee and Sonia today.
08:56I guess it would depend on the strength of your feelings.
09:02Being back in the house was strange, but, you know, it would be strange for anyone, right?
09:07Perhaps.
09:10Well, hearing this song brought back memories of a very painful day, so I thought of Sonia and you would too.
09:16Do you?
09:17Yeah.
09:18And the postcard, the timing is odd.
09:22That's it.
09:24Dee has moved on with her life.
09:26I'm pretty sure in one of her last letters she said that she had found herself a new partner and I'm happy for her.
09:30I mean, I barely think of her these days.
09:32But you're still spooked.
09:37If any one of these things happened in isolation, I wouldn't think twice about it.
09:41So it's just a strange coincidence that all of these things happened all at once.
09:47That's what's thrown me.
09:49Maybe you should still tell Therese.
09:55Oh, darling, of course I've considered Sam.
09:59Because we really do think of her as a sister.
10:02I think of her as a daughter.
10:05If Mike wants to stay in Europe, what if she wants to go there too?
10:10Well, that will be Sam's decision.
10:15Oh, Sam, that's right. You're on the late shift.
10:18I'm off.
10:19Okay.
10:22Don't forget your keys.
10:24I never do. Bye.
10:26Bye.
10:28I'm assuming this is about the partnership.
10:30Yeah, we need to sort it out.
10:33Sorry, it's so complicated.
10:35How's it all going with Nick?
10:38Um, I'm not going to lie, it's going to be difficult working with her.
10:43I mean, I'll give it everything I've got until it's a definite no.
10:46I'm committed to this trial.
10:48No offence to Nicola, but I can understand why you would find it challenging.
10:53Yeah.
10:54And I've actually got another option on the table.
10:57Really?
10:58Yeah.
10:59Well, I asked around while I was looking for a backup,
11:02and there's a venture capitalist guy.
11:04He's got big money, and he might be interested in a silent partner arrangement.
11:10Okay, what does that mean for Nick and Byron?
11:13I won't need their investment at all.
11:15I mean, at the end of the day, I have to think about what's best for the business.
11:20And you want me to make the decision?
11:24Well, when you came on board, they were out, so...
11:30Look, this is a safe space.
11:32Would you prefer Nick and Byron as partners, or a new investor?
11:37Look, I appreciate you telling me this, but it's not my call.
11:42This is your baby.
11:44You have to do what you think is right.
11:46This is your baby.
11:47You have to do what you think is right.
12:00Dee seems happy.
12:01Yeah, yeah, Dad's in good health.
12:04And she's still going out with her boyfriend.
12:06The Mountie.
12:08Hey, did you reply to her letter, the last one?
12:11No, I don't think I did.
12:13Well, you probably should, for Hugo's sake.
12:16Yeah, yeah, that's always in the back of my mind,
12:18that maybe one day he might want to meet her, or Andrea.
12:22Yeah, well, it's important to keep on good terms, especially with Dee.
12:26So how's the rest of the day?
12:30Um, we repaired the holes in the sunroom floor.
12:34Ooh, look at you, getting your handyman on.
12:37Yeah, and Cara's waiting for material,
12:40so we'll probably tackle the rest when they arrive.
12:43Hey, you know what, I, um, I don't feel like cooking tonight.
12:48Take away it is, then.
12:50Then maybe we can have another early night.
12:53Yeah, sounds good.
12:56You OK?
12:57Yeah.
13:01Oh, the scenery along that Ionian coast,
13:04it doesn't matter how many times I ride down there,
13:06it just takes my breath away.
13:07It's so spectacular, Te Amina.
13:09So how many times have you done Sicily now?
13:12Uh, coming up for six times now,
13:15and we're booked solid for the next few months.
13:18You know, might have to sort of see what happens after that,
13:21which is, which is what I wanted to talk to you about.
13:26Yeah, I wanted to talk to you too.
13:28Obviously, I've been away for a long time.
13:31Uh, it's coming up for a year now,
13:33and, you know, a lot's happened for me, and I'm sure it has for you too.
13:38And I think maybe we should break up.
13:42I'm sorry, what, what?
13:44Sorry, what did you say?
13:47Well, I think I just said what you just said.
13:52So let me get this straight, if this guy's in, we're out.
13:55I wasn't going to put it exactly like that.
13:57But that's what you're saying.
13:59Why?
14:00Yeah, why?
14:01Things are working out between us and Kiri, aren't they?
14:03The function the other day kicked butt.
14:06Are you sure there wasn't any tension between you guys?
14:10Nothing major.
14:12Look, the client loved it.
14:13Everybody had a good time.
14:15Yeah, but this was only ever supposed to be a trial period.
14:19And to be honest, I'm not sure Kiri feels as good as you guys do.
14:23What do you mean?
14:26I think it would be hard for anyone working with their ex.
14:29Hang on, did Kiri ask you to give us the boot?
14:32No.
14:33No, no, she was actually really respectful of you guys.
14:36Yeah, she's leaving the decision up to Leo.
14:38Oh, well that's great to hear that you guys had a meeting behind our back.
14:43I can't believe Kiri is shafting me.
14:45No, you're not listening to me.
14:46She didn't say anything like that.
14:48And look, I'm sorry, but for the sake of the business,
14:51I have to consider the silent investor option.
14:59I don't know, it just sort of crept up on both of us.
15:02I've never even looked at Angela in that way.
15:04You know, she's my boss.
15:05It was the last thing on my mind.
15:07Sometimes these things have a way of surprising us.
15:11Then slowly we sort of realised how much we have in common.
15:16Because I just kept finding excuses to go back to Tamina.
15:20Where she lives is where her family's from.
15:23I'm sorry Jane, is this hard to hear?
15:26I mean, I hate doing this remotely.
15:30No, actually it's not hard to hear.
15:33I'm relieved because I was dreading this conversation,
15:38but it turns out you're feeling the same way.
15:45And just so you know, nothing's happened with Angela, OK?
15:48I wanted to talk to you first.
15:51Mike, you have my blessing.
15:55She sounds like a lovely person.
15:57Yeah, she is. She's great.
15:59Well, in the spirit of transparency,
16:05Vic kissed me before he left.
16:07Entirely one-sided and I'm glad that he's gone,
16:11but it did get me thinking about my life.
16:16I'm sure he's had a bit to say about it.
16:18Yeah, he did.
16:21Quite a lot.
16:23And he was wrong about most of it.
16:25And he was wrong about most of it.
16:28But it did force me to look at my life and what I want from the future.
16:35I guess we've both been doing some soul-searching, eh?
16:39And I lost my engagement ring.
16:43Ah, you didn't happen to throw it in a freezing cold English lake by any chance, did you?
16:49No. No, I just took it off for a minute.
16:56But the fact that it's gone kind of felt like the universe was trying to tell me something.
17:04There is someone else we need to think about.
17:09Sam.
17:11You know, we love having her here.
17:13She's like a second daughter to me.
17:15So you'd be happy for her to stay?
17:17Without question.
17:19I'd love her to stay if that's what she wants.
17:21That's very sweet. Thank you.
17:22I'll chat to her and see what she wants to do.
17:26Jane.
17:30Mike.
17:33You know, finding you again, and the time we did have together,
17:38I wouldn't trade it for the world.
17:41No. Neither would I.
17:44It was very special.
17:47I wanted it to work.
17:48Well, you know, the thing I keep telling myself is, we did work.
17:53We had two amazing years together.
17:57And you taught me to believe in love again.
18:01So maybe we did come back into each other's lives again for a reason.
18:05I know we did.
18:08And whatever happens next, wherever the road takes us,
18:13you will always be in my heart.
18:16You will always be in my heart.
18:19And you'll always be in mine.
18:29This is where playing nice gets you?
18:31Yeah, have you been playing nice with Kiri?
18:33I've been trying.
18:35Look, I don't think it's her fault. It's this new investor.
18:37Just throwing Spanner in the works.
18:41So I guess Leo's made his decision?
18:43Yeah, he has. He's going with the new guy.
18:47Just so you know, I...
18:49Yeah, we know. Leo told us 100%.
18:52You know, we could have made this work.
18:54We could have gotten past our issues and made a really great team.
18:57I was hoping for the...
18:58And if we're putting all our cards on the table,
19:00I think a part of you really wanted that.
19:02Because you wouldn't have come back here
19:03if you didn't want some kind of friendship with me.
19:08What are you guys going to do now?
19:11I don't know.
19:12Maybe I'll go make some new friends on Ramsey Street.
19:14Oh, no, wait. You've taken them too.
19:21Hello, my darling girl. How are you going?
19:23You all right?
19:24I'm sad.
19:26I'm a bit sad too.
19:28I love Jane a lot.
19:30And I know she loves me.
19:32But she also loves you very much.
19:34And if you want to stay living there,
19:37she would be very happy to have you.
19:39Are you in love with Angela?
19:42I... I might be in love with her.
19:45I don't know yet.
19:47We'll see.
19:48Are you going to marry her?
19:51I think it's a bit soon to say
19:53whether I'm going to marry her or not.
19:56You're a funny girl.
19:59Well, you'll just have to come over here one day and meet her.
20:02Or maybe I'll bring her to Australia and she can meet you there.
20:06That sounds good.
20:08I have to go to work.
20:11All right. Well, off you go.
20:13It's good to chat to you and we'll talk soon.
20:15I love you.
20:16I love you, Dad.
20:19See you.
20:21I know you had a big chat with your dad last night.
20:25Well, I just wanted you to hear my side of things too.
20:32I will always love you, Dad.
20:35Sometimes, love just isn't enough.
20:41You seem to be taking this very well.
20:43I'm not surprised.
20:49Well, even though there won't be a wedding,
20:51you are still very much a part of our family
20:54and we'd love it if you were to stay with us.
20:57I want that too.
20:59No matter what happens, Mum, I love you.
21:02Oh, Sammy.
21:05I'm very happy to hear you say that.
21:13You did the brave thing. I'm really proud of you.
21:16Yeah, me too.
21:17Oh, thank you.
21:18I just came to tell you that I put in for leave yesterday.
21:22Of course.
21:24I didn't think the education department would agree,
21:26but apparently I've earned a few brownie points this year
21:30and I feel that the school and Irene are in good hands.
21:33How long were you thinking?
21:35Just a few weeks.
21:37I was worried about leaving Sam, but she has told me to go for it
21:41and so I am.
21:44Where will you go?
21:45Queensland.
21:46Yeah.
21:47I've got to go and stay with Scott and Charlene
21:49and I might go and visit Jo while I'm up there.
21:52You know you're going to be fine, Jane,
21:55and life will go on.
21:58Hmm.
21:59Yeah, it's a shame that it's without Mike,
22:01but that's just the way it has to be.
22:06PHONE RINGS
22:10Yo, Coby.
22:13I'm sorry, he's not here right now.
22:15Can I take a message?
22:20Um, you're the investor.
22:28Actually, you were on my list this morning to call on behalf of Leo.
22:31He's had to cancel your meeting.
22:37I'm so sorry, but circumstances have changed.
22:39He's decided to go with another investor.
22:46Have a nice day, too.
22:50Byron?
22:53What did you just do?
22:58Coming up on Neighbours.
22:59Kiri.
23:00Sasha.
23:01Why do I get the vibe you're trying to get rid of Andrew for the night?
23:04Either you tell him or I will.
