00:00Previously on Neighbours.
00:02A job offer from McGovern and Armstrong.
00:04Toadie has been so good to me.
00:06He can't expect you to work for him forever.
00:09I don't want to leave.
00:10That look that you and Nick gave each other.
00:12It was a good day, that's all.
00:13I'll think of ways to recoup the losses.
00:15Nick and Kerry are working on a pitch for the vineyard.
00:17We could use Lassiter's as accommodation for the guests.
00:20You're the investor.
00:21He's had to cancel your meeting.
00:22What did you just do?
00:23Are we talking about the trial partnership?
00:25The answer's yes.
00:26You lied to Breen and we've both been keeping it from you.
00:31Neighbours
00:34Everybody needs good neighbours
00:38With a little understanding
00:43You can find the perfect blend
00:49Neighbours
00:52Should be there for one another
00:56That's when good neighbours
00:59Become good friends
01:15Oi, there you go, top shelf.
01:17You have to say please and be nice to me on my first official day.
01:21Hey, do you remember when Mum got us that toy kitchen
01:24where we used to pretend to be restaurant owners?
01:26Yeah, you used to boss me around back then too.
01:28Yeah, that's because someone had to be the waiter
01:30and I'm better up front of house.
01:31You were ten.
01:33But can you believe that we're partners in a real restaurant?
01:36Yes, yes.
01:37It is still sinking in.
01:40Hey, I was thinking about more potential ways
01:44of getting people through the doors here.
01:45Yeah, what were you thinking?
01:47Get this, like regular theme nights.
01:49Oh, I like that.
01:51Like dinner and trivia.
01:52Or like one of those murder mystery parties
01:55but we could do it through the vines.
01:57And I could do the...
01:58No, you can't do any bad Sherlock Holmes impersonations.
02:01That's not quite elementary, my dear Nicolette.
02:07I know what heaven would bring.
02:09Are you going to admit it or keep lying?
02:10Look, I know what I did was bad
02:12but you said it yourself, it's worked out for the best, right?
02:14That's irrelevant, it's about trust.
02:16Give me one good reason why I should go into business with you.
02:24Hey.
02:25Hey.
02:26What can I get you?
02:27Ah, just a green tea today.
02:29Jasmine, if you've got it.
02:31Sure, coming right up.
02:35So how are you travelling with Logan gone?
02:37Seems like the dust settled.
02:39I'm fine.
02:40I'm great, actually.
02:42Keeping busy seems to be doing the trick.
02:45Bad news?
02:46No, I was just planning my day.
02:50I thought you might have missed out on the tour contract.
02:52No, we're still waiting to hear.
02:54Well, let me know when you do.
02:57Is there an update on when I get my office?
02:59Yes, we've got guests checking out this morning.
03:01Great.
03:02I need to print out some documents, where can I do that?
03:05We've got a printer at reception, feel free to use that.
03:16Is that who I think it is?
03:19Oh.
03:23I know it was a stupid thing to do and I regretted it right away.
03:25You still went behind my back.
03:27Because I wanted this partnership so badly.
03:29Hey, we can still make this work.
03:31We were just about to sign the papers, right?
03:33Sorry, when exactly did you find out?
03:35Only after the fact.
03:37That's true, okay, Nick had nothing to do with it.
03:39The only person at fault here is me.
03:41Then you're the one I can't work with.
03:42Did Krista even tell you that I tried to undo it?
03:45I mean, Leo, please, surely that counts for something.
03:47If you cross me once, you can cross me again.
03:49Get your things and go, we're done.
04:10We are going to be so very late.
04:12If only we could pull rank on our bosses.
04:14Oh.
04:18Okay, I can't leave Susan alone.
04:21Fair enough.
04:22Yeah, probably shouldn't leave Mac either.
04:24Right.
04:27What was the attitude Haz was giving you last night?
04:30Do you think he was giving me attitude?
04:32Yeah, a little bit.
04:33Well, he's got a point.
04:36The office hasn't been my priority.
04:38Yeah, I'm sure Mac loves her autonomy.
04:41Yeah, I think so.
04:42I hope so.
04:45Got them.
04:48What is it?
04:53Oh.
04:58Come on, ditch the boyfriends.
05:00Show some love to a single girl and come out tonight.
05:02Haven't you gone out like every night this week already?
05:05No, I didn't go out last night.
05:08Or Monday.
05:10Wait, was that Tuesday?
05:11Okay, who have you been going out with?
05:13You know, the girls from housekeeping and the guys from security.
05:17Oh, yeah.
05:18Yeah, and this cute guy that I saw coming out of Greasemonkey.
05:23Okay, maybe, have you been hitting it a bit too hard?
05:27I'm having fun.
05:28I know, but it wasn't that long ago you were in hospital.
05:32Yeah, and the whole Bowman thing made me realise that I need to be living my life to the fullest.
05:38Is that what you're doing?
05:40If it is, it's cool. We're just asking, alright?
05:43Is that a yes or a no for tonight?
05:46Can I go to work?
05:47Yeah.
05:48I have to go to work.
05:50Class.
05:53Um, is everything alright?
05:57Well, that's my question to you.
05:59I got a message from McGovern and Armstrong.
06:01It was a reference check.
06:10Morning.
06:11Morning.
06:18Is there something you need?
06:23It's just, you should probably know that Byron's got a new girlfriend.
06:28How's that any of my concern?
06:30Well, in case Reece is planning on flying back any time soon, he might need a heads up.
06:36Like, has Reece seen anyone new?
06:37Holly.
06:38Well, I'm on both of their sides.
06:39I mean, me and Reece were kind of friends by the time she left.
06:41We had this whole connection over Crystal.
06:43I don't have time for gossip.
06:45Nor should you.
06:53Um, Tess.
06:58Give me that.
07:01I was just checking that it's...
07:03If you see anything with my name on it, consider it confidential.
07:09Please, let me know when a room is available.
07:19The point is, I don't really know why they called you.
07:22Well, I'm glad they did.
07:24Toadie, I told them no.
07:25They probably just didn't pass it on to their HR.
07:28I mean, there's some part of you that actually wants to take that job though, isn't there?
07:32Oh.
07:33Is this why Haz was prickly with me last night?
07:36Does he want you to take the job?
07:38He wants me to be happy.
07:41I was really flattered by their offer.
07:43I mean, it's a dream job.
07:45But, Toadie, you've been so good to me.
07:47I can't leave you.
07:50Are you happy at Rebecca Moore?
07:52Are you happy at Rebecca Moore?
07:59Um, after being in court this week...
08:03No.
08:04We rarely get those kinds of cases.
08:06And that is totally fine.
08:08You don't need to chase them.
08:09You've earned the right to take it easy.
08:11Take it easy?
08:14No.
08:15No, no, I didn't mean...
08:17I mean, it's your firm.
08:19It's your firm.
08:20And you should do what you want to do.
08:24Yeah.
08:26Nah.
08:28I'm really sorry.
08:30You're right.
08:31I have been taking it easy.
08:33And that's not fair on you at all.
08:37Some professional development would be good.
08:42Well, if that's what you want...
08:45Then that is what you'll get.
08:47If you want to stay.
08:49I do.
08:51Good.
08:54Whatever your ambitions are,
08:56let's chase them together.
08:59It's going to be good for me too.
09:01Yes.
09:03Thank you.
09:07I am going to see you in the office.
09:09Okay, see you there.
09:12So I'm guessing you talked about the job offer?
09:15Yeah, we talked it over.
09:16It's going to be good.
09:22Must be Groundhog Day.
09:24How many times has this partnership gone pear-shaped?
09:29Hey, Leo said you were on your way back.
09:32You promised you wouldn't say anything.
09:34We were up until midnight last night working on that presentation
09:37and we even cut you in on it.
09:39Yeah, I know.
09:40Look, I'm sorry.
09:41I just...
09:42I couldn't lie to Leo.
09:46Kerry.
09:50Aaron.
09:51Yeah, I know. I get it.
09:54You've still got your job at the hotel.
09:55If you want it.
10:05So she just gets to drop a bomb and then swan on out like nothing's happened?
10:10Benick, just stop.
10:11Please.
10:13This one's all on me.
10:15Leo knows you had nothing to do with it.
10:18Hey, no.
10:20Byron, we're a package deal.
10:23Physically and financially.
10:25Besides, did you see Kerry's face?
10:28I think I've lost any chance of making things right with her.
10:35She was being so secretive.
10:38Look, are you sure you weren't just being nosy?
10:40No, she totally snapped at me.
10:42Holly, that's why we have to stay out of her way.
10:45Krista, aren't you a little bit curious about what she was printing?
10:48No, look, she's obviously here to check in on us.
10:50Okay, we can't give her any reason to think that there's a problem.
10:54Okay.
10:55I'm just trying to get the tea.
10:57No, I need you to focus.
10:58Okay, and stop partying.
11:00Well, now you sound like Mackenzie.
11:02It's affecting your work.
11:04Look, I know that we're friends, but you need to rein it in.
11:13Larry.
11:14Hey.
11:21Look, I'm really sorry I stuffed things up.
11:25Look, maybe the partnership's just not meant to be.
11:28There's no reason for Leo to give Nick the boot.
11:30She should still be able to invest her share.
11:33And please, don't get mad at her.
11:35She's worried this might set you guys back.
11:37I don't want it to.
11:39Hey, can I ask you something?
11:42What do you want from her?
11:46You know, it's just that you guys are getting along so well.
11:50Yeah, it's been really great.
11:54She'd get back together with you in a heartbeat.
11:58That's if you feel the same.
12:02You know, if there's one good thing that can come out of this partnership trial,
12:05it might be worth exploring.
12:18Hey.
12:19Hey.
12:24Are we okay?
12:26You rushed off when I told you about Byron earlier.
12:31Yeah, we're okay.
12:33Yeah, we're okay.
12:36Even though it took me so long to tell you?
12:38Yeah, I don't want to be mad at you.
12:41Are you just saying that because I've been so wobbly lately?
12:44I'm saying it because I love you.
12:46And I know Byron would have pressured you to get quiet like that.
12:53What are you going to do about the vineyard?
12:56Korea and Nicolae seem to be getting on alright, and we're all on the same wavelength.
13:01So...
13:02Yeah, it seemed that way after the pitch.
13:08We got the deal.
13:10The vineyard and the hotel.
13:12Yay.
13:14Thank you for letting me be a part of that.
13:16Yeah.
13:20Do you think you could see a way to giving Byron a second chance?
13:25If he's prepared to shaft me like he did, how can I possibly do that?
13:30I don't know.
13:36Tess?
13:38You're thinking, do I know her?
13:41You do, but from a very long time ago.
13:44Melanie.
13:46We only met the once.
13:48Krista's mum was moving out of Conrad's house in London.
13:51I remember.
13:52You flew over to make sure she didn't steal the artwork and I made you a cup of tea.
13:56A lot's happened since then.
13:57Just know that you don't need to worry about Krista.
14:00She's doing a fantastic job at the hotel.
14:03That's quite the endorsement.
14:05Didn't she extort money off of you?
14:08Yeah, well, let's say I've seen her at her worst, she's seen me at mine.
14:13Contrary to what Krista might think, I'm here to check on the hotel, not her.
14:17I know that my word probably doesn't mean a thing, but she's changed.
14:22I just wanted you to know.
14:28Holly just contacted me for an answer.
14:31I had the same issue.
14:33She asked you out too.
14:35Well, you can use me as an excuse.
14:37Believe me, I am.
14:39You worried about her?
14:41I don't know. I mean, she says that she's fine, but I don't think I could bounce back that quickly if I'd just been kidnapped.
14:50I got your message about the pitch. Congratulations.
14:53Thank you.
14:54I feel like I can breathe again.
14:55Breathe, and then we'll celebrate.
14:58Your father and I would have a steak dinner whenever we landed a big contract.
15:04Maybe we could keep that tradition alive.
15:08Yeah, I'd like that.
15:10May I sit?
15:11Yeah.
15:18Krista, I can see how hard you've worked to turn your life around.
15:23Your father would be proud.
15:26Did he ever say nice things about me, or was it all bad?
15:32He spent a lot of time worrying about you.
15:36But he loved you.
15:39Conrad had pictures of all his children on his desk.
15:43Yours was the closest to him.
15:48That's nice to know.
15:50That's nice to know.
15:54What about Reese? What does she say about me?
15:59Reese is focused on the business. She just wants you to succeed.
16:05I want you to succeed too.
16:07I promise you that I'm committed to the hotel, and my recovery.
16:12You don't have to be intimidated by me. As long as you hit your targets, I've got your back.
16:20Hello stranger.
16:21Hello yourself.
16:23Is it me, or have we not seen each other for a few weeks?
16:27Yeah, for two people who used to bump into each other awkwardly all the time.
16:31Yeah, that's quite a record.
16:33What can I get you?
16:35I'm thinking something to go with my mood.
16:38I'm feeling motivated and energetic.
16:41Yeah, that's good.
16:43I've got you covered.
16:44I'm thinking something to go with my mood. I'm feeling motivated and energised.
16:49Oh, I know just the thing.
16:54So what has got you motivated and energised?
16:58Well, I've realised that I've been drifting.
17:01Professionally, that is. And now that I'm back, I'm going to turn it around.
17:06I came home from my road trip feeling the same way. Professionally and personally, in my case.
17:14Alright, how's it working out for you?
17:16Well, apart from a brief detour with an unsavoury character named Logan.
17:20Yeah, I heard about that.
17:22I am back on track. And I just love that there's no awkwardness between us anymore.
17:29Yeah, same here.
17:30I also realised something else while I was away. While I was parked up on the Grampians one day.
17:35Yeah, what's that?
17:38You and I were never meant to be.
17:44Okay, I got it.
17:46I got it. Can you take her out for me?
17:49Lucky, Miss Sparkles floats.
17:53Hi. What are you guys doing here?
17:56Hi. What are you guys doing here?
18:00Isla changed her mind about the beach, so we decided to go to Dada's favourite pool, didn't we?
18:05I'm sorry if we surprised you. Byron said no one would be home.
18:08Oh, no. It's all good.
18:10Hey, there are some gonads on the table. Miss Sparkles wants an arm to swim through.
18:14You're lucky.
18:20Thanks for being so nice.
18:22No, she's cute.
18:24I meant me.
18:26You must think I'm just as bad as Byron.
18:29I know you had nothing to do with it. He told me.
18:32We just really want the partnership to happen.
18:39Really enjoyed these last few days with you.
18:43Yeah, me too.
18:49If that's how you feel, do you think that you could give us another chance?
18:57It hit me one day like a bolt from the blue.
19:01You don't have to tell me this.
19:03I want to. Maybe it's the last step in me truly moving on.
19:10As long as it's alright with you.
19:13Yeah.
19:16We rushed into our marriage.
19:19Did we?
19:20You think about it. From the moment we got engaged to the balloon exploding in the street, what was it, a month? Tops.
19:26Well, I mean, that was more to do with Callum's availability.
19:30Plus, I was feeling super insecure about your friendship with Amy.
19:35But it all happened super fast.
19:39We were happy.
19:41Weren't we?
19:44Absolutely.
19:45And it was the Krista and Eden stuff that made me run away.
19:50What I'm saying is that we're different people at different stages of our lives.
19:56And if it hadn't have been that, it would have been something else eventually.
20:02Really?
20:05I hope I'm not upsetting you by saying this.
20:08I really love that you and I are friends now.
20:11But maybe that's all we were ever supposed to be in the long run.
20:17Yeah. No, you're not upsetting me. I love that we're friends now.
20:22Yeah. No, you're not upsetting me. I love that we're friends now.
20:40Hello. Sorry to keep you waiting. What can I get for you?
20:43Thank you.
20:53This was the hardest part about breaking up.
20:55It wasn't just leaving you, it was leaving your family.
21:00And Isla.
21:02She's pretty addictive, isn't she?
21:08Is there anyone else up north?
21:10A few one-night stands. Nothing serious.
21:14What about you?
21:16Yeah. Yeah, I went on a few dates.
21:18I always started something with Hazard's sister.
21:21Oh.
21:24But most of the dates I went on, I'd always find some fault or excuse to not go back.
21:31I think the main fault was that they weren't you.
21:41What's happening?
22:03Coming up on Neighbours.
22:05We're going for drinks after class today. You guys should join.
22:08I'm game if you are.
22:10Alright, why are you both acting so weird?
22:13So you guys should get back together.
22:14Nick and I need to figure this out by ourselves.
22:17What are you thinking?
