00:00Previously on Neighbors.
00:02Are you happy at Rebecca Law?
00:04Some professional development would be good.
00:06Whatever your ambitions are, let's chase them together.
00:08Remy gives me the mail and there's a postcard from Dee.
00:11I feel weird.
00:12You and I were never meant to be.
00:14I got your message about the pitch.
00:16Congratulations.
00:17Thank you.
00:18You don't have to be intimidated by me.
00:20I've got your back.
00:21Gatsford mentorship goes to Wendy Rodwell.
00:24It was a diversity PR stunt.
00:26Wendy won that mentorship on her own merit
00:28and for you to say otherwise is racist.
00:58Neighbors become good friends.
01:07Follow my lead.
01:10Hey.
01:12Hi.
01:14I was just telling Mel about this wonderful dinner
01:18that Sadie and I have organised for you
01:20to celebrate your mentorship.
01:22Yes, it sounds like a court.
01:25Oh, yeah, I don't need anything special.
01:28It's not a big deal.
01:30He's just so proud of you going back to uni
01:34and now you are smashing it with this snazzy new mentorship.
01:39Oh, it's really very sweet.
01:42But can we do it another time?
01:51Alrighty, here we are.
01:53Sorry it took us so long to get it ready.
01:55The hotel was fully booked.
01:56I can't complain about that.
01:58Are you sure you don't want us to get the bedroom moved?
02:00Because we can...
02:01It's fine.
02:02It's the desk I really need.
02:03Right.
02:04Yeah.
02:05Any update on when you'll be leaving?
02:07I only ask so we can allocate the room.
02:10I can't imagine I'll be here more than a few weeks.
02:13Well, if you'd rather work from the house that you're renting,
02:15we could totally help with that too.
02:17Relax.
02:18I won't be looking over your shoulder the entire time.
02:21We have other investments I need to check on.
02:23Right, well, if you need anything else, just sing out
02:25and we'll leave you to it.
02:31What? You want to see the back of her just as much as I do?
02:33Actually, we've been kind of getting along lately
02:35and I'd like to keep it that way.
02:37Okay.
02:38Our first step is to shore up our bread and butter.
02:41Standard contracting, conveyancing.
02:44We've already got a solid client base.
02:46Yeah, but I really want to build on those little jobs
02:48so that we can have a steady income stream
02:50which will actually free you up.
02:52Free me up?
02:54Yeah.
02:55So you can take on the jobs that you love.
02:57If you find a case that you're passionate about,
02:59you can do it pro bono.
03:01That's amazing.
03:02Oh, Toadie, that's really impressive, mate.
03:04Happy, smiling people.
03:06That's what I like to see.
03:08I'm just about to get some toasties.
03:10Toadie's shouting.
03:11Oh, don't mind if I do.
03:13Holly's on late shift.
03:14Carl and Susan seem to want to have some alone time.
03:16Okay, TMI.
03:19Actually, I should probably head off.
03:21Okay, go. This has been amazing.
03:23Yeah?
03:24Yeah.
03:25Okay, good.
03:26The toasties are still on me.
03:28Thanks, Toadie.
03:29Thanks.
03:42Did you sneak out again last night?
03:45I don't sneak out.
03:47So when you wait for Carl and Susan to go to bed
03:50and then you leave your room very quietly,
03:52that's called...
03:54It's called not giving your father reasons to worry.
03:58What? My besties are all loved up.
04:00I'm just getting out there and making new friends.
04:05Hello.
04:10Our shift's at night at the moment.
04:12It's all good on her.
04:14Clocking up the overtime.
04:18Has Toadie said anything to you about me?
04:21No.
04:22Um, why?
04:24Well, I told him something the other day
04:27and I didn't think I was being insensitive, but maybe I was.
04:30I told him that I had an epiphany on the road
04:33and that we were never meant to be.
04:35Time on the road made me realise that we rushed into our wedding.
04:39How did Toadie take that?
04:41Well, he didn't say anything, really.
04:43But when I saw him last night,
04:45I swear he was being weird with me.
04:48I don't know.
04:51I think we've seen each other before.
04:53I honestly don't think we've seen each other before.
04:59I honestly don't think we've seen each other before.
05:14Hey, Kara.
05:16I was going to call you.
05:18How are you holding up after yesterday?
05:20Yeah, I'm fine.
05:22Heidi has no filter.
05:24Yeah, or brains.
05:26I'm glad I was here to call out her racist rubbish.
05:29Yeah, well, thank you for doing that.
05:33Oh, no. No, I was just looking out for a mate.
05:36Hey, you know, my next shoot doesn't start for another half an hour.
05:40Do you want to get a coffee and talk about it some more?
05:42Oh, I'd love to, but I've really got to get going to the library.
05:46Maybe later.
05:48OK.
06:04Hello, sexy.
06:06Her name's not sexy.
06:09It's Rihanna.
06:12It's yours.
06:15Sexy.
06:23There he is.
06:25My trusty second in charge.
06:28Heath, meet Krista.
06:29It's great to meet you.
06:31You too.
06:32What part of the States are you from?
06:34Heath works in our L.A. office.
06:36He's just flown in.
06:37Right. Do you know my sister, then?
06:38No, he was strictly West Coast.
06:40I snuck him out of the country before anybody could stop me.
06:43I got him yesterday.
06:45Oh, well, welcome to Lassiter's errands borough.
06:48Can I help with anything?
06:50Holly, this is Heath, Tess's second in charge.
06:53Holly works at reception.
06:55She's here for anything that you might need.
06:57Good to know.
07:00I'll show you to our office.
07:02It was lovely to meet you.
07:03You too.
07:06Holly?
07:11Did you know about him?
07:13No. What happens?
07:16Hey, I'm still waiting on the sign-off paperwork for the experiences tour.
07:19So when that comes through, can you just send it to me?
07:21Sure.
07:22Thanks.
07:26Krista's not like I expected.
07:28Appearances can be deceiving.
07:31You think she's still using?
07:33You think she's still using?
07:35Krista might be clean now, but once a junkie, always a junkie.
07:39I've decided it's better that she sees me as a friend rather than an enemy.
07:44That way, we get what we want.
07:51Good luck with Phil. I will take care of the break walls.
07:54You don't have to take every boring client off my hands.
07:57No, I'm not. I am gagging for the tea on the break wall divorce.
08:00Hello. Special delivery.
08:02Haz was going to bring these over. I said I'd help out.
08:04Okay, I will take that. Thank you.
08:07Do not ever say gagging or tea ever again. Ever.
08:11Okay, bye.
08:13There you go.
08:14Oh, thanks, mate.
08:16Perhaps I was also looking for an excuse to check in on you.
08:20Oh, mate, I'm fine. Yeah, I'm focused on work, which is the best place for me to be.
08:25Melody thinks she's upset you.
08:28Right. Apparently she's come to a realisation about your time together.
08:33I'm happy for her. I'm glad that she's finally at peace with it all.
08:37And I do appreciate the welfare check. I really do.
08:40But I'm looking forward, not back.
08:43Oh, yeah.
08:46Hello.
09:03Hey. I thought you had class this morning.
09:06Yeah, I do. Just, um, wasn't feeling my best, so I thought I'd have a me day instead.
09:15When you got that mentorship, you were next level excited.
09:19You seem really flat. What's going on?
09:23Oh, you know, I just realised that the uni give out a lot of those opportunities.
09:28Not a big deal. Nothing special.
09:33The Gatsford mentorship is sought after. It's a huge deal.
09:38You even said that yourself when you applied for it.
09:42Yeah, well, I was wrong.
09:46When? Hey. Talk to me.
09:55Some girl that I study a few classes with reckons I only got this because I'm...
10:02an Asian. Called me a diversity box tick.
10:09That's ridiculous.
10:11Yeah, well, I did a bit of research this morning and it turns out that Eden Hills is in this racism hot seat
10:16because I'm senior lecturer and I like some bigoted post.
10:22So?
10:24So? It's good PR for the uni to give a hard-to-get mentorship to a non-white person.
10:32When you got that mentorship based on your merit, not heritage.
10:39I really love that you think that.
10:43But I don't.
10:46And that's why I can't celebrate because I just...
10:50I'm sorry, but I don't deserve it.
10:59Hey, did that paperwork come through yet?
11:02No, but I have been going over the mess that is Brett.
11:05Yes?
11:06He took an event booking and didn't black out the dates in the system.
11:10Okay, well, that's not so bad. It's easily rectified.
11:12No, the event is for the same dates as the experiences tour group.
11:15What? Can we fit them both?
11:18No, we don't have the space. Experiences needs a lot of rooms.
11:22Okay, leave it with me. I'll have a play with the calendar and see what I can do.
11:28Don't you think it's weird that Tess didn't mention her to AC before?
11:33I don't know. It makes sense that she's got one.
11:36He was driving a pretty ex-y car.
11:39Yeah, well, he's probably on a decent salary.
11:43You know, I could be useful here.
11:47No, Holly, please, don't get involved.
11:49No, but I can invest...
11:50No, okay, we've got enough on our plates cleaning up after Brett.
11:53All right, leave it.
11:56I'm sending Justin out to Warwie.
11:59You even trust this guy?
12:01He's all brawn, no brain. All he cares about is a paycheck.
12:04You think we'll have problems at the station?
12:06It isn't easy putting people out of work.
12:09I'm going to meet Justin tomorrow and brief him.
12:11I'd like to be part of that.
12:13No need. I'm meeting him in the city.
12:15Best nobody here sees him around.
12:18I'm going to meet Justin tomorrow and brief him.
12:20I'd like to be part of that.
12:22Best nobody here sees him around.
12:26Come in.
12:30Hey, Krista.
12:31Hi.
12:32Sorry to interrupt, but I thought you should know that Brett has struck again.
12:37What's happened?
12:39We've double-booked the Experiences Tour with an accounting conference.
12:42I see. How do you plan to rectify it?
12:45We can't do both.
12:48We've hosted the accounting group before,
12:50but they're nowhere near as big as Experiences.
12:53I'm thinking of cancelling them.
12:55Risky to sever a relationship with an existing client.
13:00What do you think?
13:01I'm not here to tell you how to run the hotel.
13:04You make the call.
13:06Brett.
13:08The accounting conference has to go.
13:14You kind of ran away from me this morning.
13:17I was worried that I upset you when I had a go at Heidi.
13:21No. It's fine.
13:25I wanted to explain that when I have a reaction to someone like that,
13:29it's a knee-jerk for me.
13:31I do it without thinking because I have to.
13:34To protect my family.
13:38Because you're in an interracial relationship.
13:42Interracial? Same sex?
13:45People can be so bigoted, and if you don't call them out on it,
13:48then nothing changes.
13:51I really think that you should consider making a complaint to the uni.
13:57Um, look, I'm very used to being judged for looking Asian,
14:02but sometimes the best course is you have to ignore it.
14:06What if it had been Sadie?
14:08Would you ignore it then?
14:10Well, no, she's my daughter, so of course I'd stand up for her.
14:13Yeah, so you just have to find that same fight for yourself.
14:17You know, you should stand up and let the uni know what was said.
14:23Okay, well, I promise that I will think about it.
14:26Okay.
14:30Sorry, I have to take this. It's work.
14:36Bye.
14:44Hey.
14:46Hey.
14:49Carl spoke to you, didn't he?
14:52That's all good.
14:54I just don't want you taking what I said the wrong way.
14:57I'm not trying to minimise our relationship or...
15:00It's fine, Millie.
15:06Actually, um, for the record, I don't agree.
15:10Okay.
15:12Just because our wedding happened quickly
15:14doesn't mean that things wouldn't have worked out.
15:16Because that's life, right?
15:18That things can happen fast.
15:20And they can be good, long-lasting things.
15:25So let's just put this behind us.
15:43Hey.
15:45Hey, Krista. Nice work before.
15:48I thought your decision-making on the eventing issue was impressive.
15:51Oh, thanks.
15:52I like your confidence.
15:54Well, I wish I had more of it when I spoke to the rep from the accountings conference.
15:58I had to take the news.
16:00Let's just say they won't be coming to Las Vegas again.
16:05Krista Sinclair?
16:08Yes.
16:09Oh, I'm so glad you called.
16:10I'm still waiting on the sign-off papers.
16:15Um, oh, but hang on.
16:17We had a verbal agreement.
16:19You can't just back out.
16:23Well, um, can we at least discuss this?
16:25I don't know. I could make a counter-offer.
16:31Experience has got a more competitive rate at another hotel.
16:35They just pulled the plug.
16:37Can you tell Tess that I lost two massive clients today?
16:41Say something along the lines of, Tess, I lost two massive clients.
16:45Won't be fun, but she has no respect for people who dance around the truth.
16:54It's nice to hear from you.
16:56Well, you are one of my favorite uni friends.
16:58Don't tell Parker.
17:01Hey, I heard about the gas momentum shift.
17:05Yeah, yay me.
17:07Diversity pick.
17:09Whoa, where'd that come from?
17:15Heidi.
17:17Said it straight to my face.
17:18That is not cool.
17:20Or valid.
17:22Did you tell her what to do with her opinion?
17:25Well, she caught me off guard.
17:27But Cara was there and, you know, she heard it and was able to pull her up.
17:31But then I told Andrew and he just thinks the accusations are silly.
17:36Well, but he doesn't get to decide that, you do.
17:40Yeah, well, they're just lucky they don't know what this feels like.
18:02I mean, he's a total player.
18:04I got that right away.
18:05But you know what I like?
18:06He doesn't try to hide it.
18:09Are you listening to me?
18:11I just had a bit of a weird conversation before.
18:14Never mind.
18:17Incoming.
18:20Is this the best place for coffee?
18:23It's all right.
18:24But Harold's is better.
18:26They have a smoother blend.
18:29Oh, um, this is Melanie.
18:31Hi, Melanie.
18:34Well, I'll have to check out Harold's next time.
18:39Yeah.
18:44I told you, total hottie.
18:46Did you say that he works for Tess?
18:48The same Tess that Krista is trying to keep on the right track with?
18:51Yeah.
18:52I don't know.
18:53Did you say that he works for Tess?
18:55The same Tess that Krista is trying to keep on the right track with?
18:59Yeah, so?
19:00So, it puts him out of balance.
19:04The Quill Group snapped up the Experiences Tour.
19:06I have no idea how they found out about it.
19:09How much was the accounting conference worth?
19:11Just shy of 50K.
19:16This is disappointing.
19:18But...
19:20I'm impressed with how you're handling things.
19:23You could have passed the buck.
19:25Instead, you're here owning it.
19:27This says something.
19:31I'll find a way to recoup the loss.
19:34On top of the other losses.
19:36Sure you will.
19:40Hi.
19:41Hi.
19:43Ahem.
19:51Looks like someone's plan paid off.
19:53She's such an easy target.
19:55There's absolutely no way she can find out that you tipped off the other hotel.
19:58They won't say anything.
20:00Krista thinks it's her own fault.
20:03Wow.
20:05I think someone deserves our award.
20:13Why is Kara pushing you to make a complaint?
20:16Oh, it's personal for her.
20:18Whereas Andrew, he's seeing it more logically.
20:20You know, he wants me to just ignore it.
20:22Move on.
20:23Pretty easy to have strong perspectives when you haven't experienced racism before.
20:28We had a fill-in lecturer at my biology tute the other week.
20:31And she told me that my English was very good.
20:36It's the only language I speak.
20:38My mannering sucks.
20:39Yeah.
20:40I get that at work sometimes, too.
20:41Like, I know it's not all intentional, but it makes me feel less than.
20:46You know?
20:47Yeah.
20:48Yeah, I do.
20:49And that is why I feel weird about this mentorship.
20:53Still going to take it?
20:55Well, I don't like that my work's being questioned.
20:57Well, then push it back.
21:02Yeah, I mean, that would be the ultimate statement, wouldn't it?
21:05No, but why should I have to lose out just to prove myself?
21:09Look, don't make any decisions yet.
21:13Focus on you.
21:14Focus on the effort that you put in.
21:17I mean, that in itself is something to be proud of.
21:20Yeah.
21:21Okay.
21:35Hey.
21:51Toad?
21:53You alright?
21:58Fine.
22:00I obviously touched a nerve before.
22:03I'm sorry.
22:04If I implied anything about you and Therese...
22:06My relationship with Therese is completely different to you and me.
22:09I know.
22:11I honestly don't want to cause any trouble for you.
22:13You're not.
22:15You can't.
22:16No one can.
22:18Not you.
22:19Not Sonia.
22:21Dee.
22:23Nobody.
22:34Coming up on Neighbours.
22:35It's impressive how you haven't let your recent setbacks get you down.
22:39You've been having so many good days recently.
22:42I'm scared you're going backwards.
22:44I'm really worried about Holly too.
22:46Then it's settled.
22:47We have to say something.
22:48I can't deny that I'm going through some stuff.
