00:00♪ Closer each day, home in the way ♪
00:09Newman, what did you do to get stuck here with us then?
00:11It's a long story.
00:13I think we just missed them.
00:14Didn't waste much time replacing old Franco, did they?
00:17What do we do now?
00:18We welcome him to town.
00:22How do you know Rory Templeton?
00:24He's dating my sister.
00:25You said anything about dropping her.
00:28We have a unique opportunity to get some dirt on the new cop.
00:31I need you to end things with him.
00:32Since when do you care who I'm dating?
00:34Since you started dating a gang member.
00:36Just let me explain.
00:37Give me one good reason why I shouldn't dump you right now.
00:39Bronte is a scammer.
00:41I was closest to her.
00:43She was living under my roof, for God's sake.
00:45I'm a fool.
00:46We all fell for Bronte's act.
00:48Your sister didn't.
00:49Xander?
00:50Yeah?
00:51How long are you gonna stonewall him for?
00:53I'm gonna stonewall him until I can trust him again.
00:55Why all of a sudden is it on me to make him feel better?
00:57Do you think I should reply to this or am I just gonna keep ignoring him?
01:00You should trust your own gut.
01:01Mine hasn't done me any favours lately.
01:19I gotta hand it to you, Palmer.
01:21Palmer, if it wasn't for your quick thinking,
01:23those con artists would probably still be out there ruining people's lives.
01:26Thanks, Al.
01:27I like to think I'm cool in a crisis.
01:29Oh, Xander.
01:30Mate, how's Dana?
01:32Ah, she's happy to be home, I think.
01:34Yeah, actually it was young Xander here who galloped off into the bush to rescue her.
01:38Pretty gutsy effort from both of you.
01:40Oh, I don't know about that.
01:45Hey.
01:46Thanks so much for your messages.
01:47It's good to see you.
01:48Hold that thought.
01:49I don't owe you anything.
01:50You said that I owe you a conversation? I don't.
01:52No, I didn't mean it like that.
01:53That's how it sounded.
01:54And you are the one that owes me massively.
01:56I know.
01:57Can we talk about that?
01:58No, we can't.
01:59Because I don't actually have anything to say.
02:01But Dana, we need to sort this out.
02:02No, I need space.
02:03I need you to not be in it.
02:04Dana, that's not...
02:05Whoa, whoa, whoa. Take a breath.
02:07Give it time.
02:12Your brother's looking at this through a cop's eyes.
02:14But if there wasn't any problem, if he weren't in any trouble,
02:16why would the cops be looking at you at all?
02:19Fair point.
02:20I mean, what, you're just squeaky clean?
02:22Like you're mules on wheels? Come on.
02:23I'm not saying the boys are angels.
02:25The cops have been in our faces for years.
02:27Oh, and what? That's unfair?
02:30You haven't committed a crime.
02:32Made mistakes?
02:34Who hasn't?
02:35I'm gonna need details, Rory.
02:38I've never done time, if that's what you're asking.
02:45No arrests.
02:46No arrests.
02:48No charges.
02:52If you want me to trust you, I need you to be honest with me.
02:56Yeah.
02:58I've got some misdemeanors.
03:01Okay.
03:03Don't let my past mess up what we have.
03:07It's one heck of a past.
03:09I know it is.
03:11But hey, I haven't even had a parking ticket in ages.
03:15Ask your brother.
03:22Alright, Felicity.
03:23Want the truth?
03:25Yeah, I do.
03:28The boys are the reason I'm still here.
03:33Hey, what would you do if your sister was dating a river boy?
03:36My sister's too smart for that.
03:41Hey.
03:42Hey, do you know your car's been graffitied?
03:45Yeah, it was a welcome present from the locals.
03:47Got a good detailer on speed dial, don't worry.
03:49Eden, this is Joanna.
03:50Joanna, Eden.
03:51Nice to meet you.
03:52You too.
03:53What are you doing here?
03:54If I don't need an excuse to see you,
03:56then maybe I wanted to find out what this place is really like.
04:01What's with the roof?
04:02Please tell me that they are in the middle of renovations.
04:05We have spoken about this, yeah.
04:06Everything's fine.
04:07Yeah, except the river boy's always watching the station
04:09and now you have a sign saying cop's girlfriend flashing over your head.
04:13Thanks, Joanna.
04:15I'll give you the tour.
04:17Sure.
04:23I'm starting to wonder if we were ever actually right for each other.
04:28What exactly did Xander say to you?
04:30It's not what he said, it's his attitude.
04:32Yeah, but he's trying to do the right thing, isn't he?
04:35Are you on his side?
04:36Did I say that?
04:39I'm going to go for a walk.
04:40Day, now.
04:42Oh, just the woman I was hoping to see.
04:45Why? Are you also a part of the Xander fan club?
04:48I came to check up on you. You were upset earlier.
04:50Yeah, can you blame me?
04:51No, I can't. I was there that day. I saw what you went through.
04:54I also saw how worried Xander was.
04:57Not saying he's perfect in all of this.
04:59He's made mistakes and he's admitted it.
05:02I mean, so he should.
05:03Love, don't be angry with Xander.
05:05If anyone's to blame here...
05:06No, Irene, you don't have anything to apologise about.
05:09None of us were perfect in this situation, Dana.
05:12But why is he the only one you're still angry at?
05:18You know what? I'm going to get out of here.
05:24I didn't mean to pour fuel on the fire.
05:26Don't worry, love. It's not your fault.
05:31I just feel terrible for those two.
05:33They've been ripped apart by this whole stupid situation.
05:40Oh, Leah. You got a minute?
05:42Yeah, what's up?
05:43Uh, Irene. How's she doing?
05:46Yeah, not great.
05:47She's still blaming herself for what happened with Dana and Bonty.
05:50That's ridiculous. She's not the one ripping people off.
05:53I know, but she still blames herself for it.
05:55Not that anyone else is blaming her.
05:57Hmm. Well, keep an eye on her, eh?
06:00I will.
06:03OK, so I went and had a talk to Dana.
06:06OK, so I went and had a talk to Dana.
06:08Why?
06:09Well, I wanted to see if I could fix things between you two.
06:12Well?
06:13I reckon you should try giving her a call.
06:15I have tried. I mean, you were there. You saw how that went down.
06:18Now's not the time to back off, mate.
06:20Now's the time to let her know how much you care.
06:22Come on.
06:27You said that the boys saved you.
06:29What did you mean?
06:32You know I was in foster care.
06:34We talked about this.
06:38Dad drank too much.
06:40He used his fists.
06:42I tried to stop him, protect Mum and my little brothers.
06:46A social worker pulled me out of there.
06:49I got shunted between foster homes.
06:53Nothing lasted, so I ran.
06:56How old were you?
06:58Fifteen.
06:59How'd you survive?
07:01Dropped out of school.
07:03Broke into cars.
07:05Shot lifted to eat.
07:09That's when the boys found me.
07:12They made me feel like, for the first time, I had a choice
07:17about what my life was going to look like.
07:22I get the thing with your brother.
07:24He's protective.
07:26I respect that.
07:27Don't let him know.
07:31Okay.
07:33That's where we're at.
07:41Tell your brother he's got nothing to worry about.
07:46Neither do you.
08:01Wow, I read that guy totally wrong.
08:04Does Felicity know?
08:05She needed to.
08:07Is she going to end it?
08:09I don't know.
08:10I hope so.
08:16Hey Eden, nice wheels.
08:18I'll see you tonight.
08:20I'm out of here.
08:21Yeah, I did try to warn you.
08:23I know.
08:25Look, it's going to take a little bit of getting used to, but I'll be fine.
08:28See you.
08:38What are you doing here, Rory?
08:39Why don't you try getting your facts straight before you start throwing accusations around?
08:43You know nothing about me.
08:45You know nothing about the boys.
08:47Well, I know my sister's not going to hang out with somebody like you.
08:53We'll see about that.
08:55We'll see about that.
09:00Flick, give me a call back as soon as you get this, yeah?
09:05Nice of your girlfriend to visit.
09:06Yeah, but not smiling.
09:08Understatement of the year.
09:09I wouldn't mind keeping this place and my private life separate.
09:11Not ideal that your sister's fallen for a ripper boy then.
09:14What do you say, fallen?
09:15I understand the temptation, I suppose.
09:17Well, that makes one of us.
09:18So, how long's it been going on for?
09:21No, not long.
09:22I'm hoping her sister will flee.
09:23Yeah, well, hopefully she sees some sense.
09:26She will.
09:34Hey.
09:36Hey.
09:37I just came from Mangrove River. I heard about Rory.
09:40Your head must be spinning.
09:42Yeah, it is.
09:44Are you going to answer that?
09:45No, it's just Cash again. I don't know what to say to him.
09:48He's worried about you. Just tell him it's sorted.
09:51Except it isn't.
09:53What are you talking about?
09:57Well...
10:00On the one hand, Cash has never asked me to stop seeing someone.
10:04But on the other hand, Rory has been nothing but open and honest about his past.
10:09And the gang thing that...
10:11Yeah, I asked him about it and he told me straight up.
10:13The ripper boy's a family.
10:15You cannot seriously be thinking about continuing this relationship.
10:19Cash thinks that Rory and Dingo graffitied his car.
10:23Why would they do that?
10:24Intimidation tactic?
10:26That's not setting off any alarm bells for you.
10:29I mean, this is a guy who's treated me with nothing but respect.
10:32You encouraged me to call.
10:34Cash was shaking his head a couple of days ago.
10:37Babe, that was before we knew that he was in a gang.
10:40We were operating on a very different set of facts.
10:44Surely this has got to change things for you.
10:50Ooh, you look energised.
10:52Oh, my head always feels a million times clearer after a gym class.
10:56I feel like Harper.
10:58If I could do a workout and forget my problems, I definitely would.
11:01I just happen to want to go home and eat a ton of ice cream and forget the world exists.
11:05I'll give you a reading.
11:06Oh, maybe next time.
11:08Of course.
11:10I'm probably going to go home.
11:11Alright, bye-bye, darling.
11:14Bye, darling.
11:15Bye.
11:16I thought you were done for the day.
11:17Ah, you know me, I can't stay away from the joint.
11:20Really? Because I was going to suggest taking you off the roster for a couple of weeks.
11:24No, don't do that.
11:25You've earned your right.
11:26I said no.
11:28Work is exactly what I need right now.
11:31I was just trying to help.
11:33Love, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to bite your head off.
11:38I know it sounds tragic, but the only distraction I've got at the moment is this.
11:48So, how are things with you and Dana?
11:53Ah, it's not great.
11:55I'm actually pretty worried about her, about us.
11:58I feel like I've stuffed this relationship when we haven't even started.
12:02Don't give up.
12:03It can be challenging, but if it's important, you put in the effort.
12:06Yeah, but if it's not right, it's not right.
12:09It's not right.
12:10It's not right.
12:11It's not right.
12:12It's not right.
12:13It's not right.
12:14But if it's not right, it's not right.
12:20Hey, you're in one piece.
12:22Yeah, let's call it a win, eh?
12:23Has she said anything about Rory?
12:25Ah, a whole lot, actually.
12:27You should come talk to her.
12:31Hey, Xander, can you take me through next week's roster?
12:34Wait, didn't I send it to you?
12:35You, me, now, rosters, please.
12:38Okay.
12:39Come here.
12:43Hey.
12:44Hey.
12:45How was your first day?
12:46It was eye-opening.
12:48Yes, it was mine.
12:49I had a long chat with Rory.
12:51Yeah.
12:52Did you end up with him?
12:53He's not as bad as you think.
12:54Oh, come on, Fleek.
12:56He told me everything.
12:57Did he?
12:58The fact that he's a river boy means nothing.
12:59To you, it's a gang.
13:00To him, it's family.
13:01Are you serious?
13:02They support each other.
13:03You have no idea what you're getting yourself into right now.
13:05I don't have any proof that he's been involved in anything
13:07except a few misdemeanours.
13:09Look, I heard you before, and I thank you for your concern,
13:12but this is my life, and I really like him.
13:15So, you better get used to him being around.
13:24Hello.
13:26Good news?
13:28The money that we donated to Bronte
13:30has been returned to our account.
13:32Oh, that's a relief.
13:33I'm just glad that she can't do this to anyone else.
13:35Well, Bronte's gonna get what's coming to her.
13:37It's called karma.
13:39And it's the law.
13:42I just can't stop thinking about what might have happened to Dana
13:45if you and Xander hadn't have found her.
13:47Avery, can you stop blaming yourself?
13:49Darling, this has nothing to do with you.
13:51It is all on Bronte.
13:53Yeah, what she did was despicable.
13:54All you did was give a young woman the benefit of the doubt.
13:57Will you stop letting me off the hook?
14:00No-one else is to blame.
14:04I'm coming fast
14:09Out of the ash
14:12You won't see me, I'm the hunter
14:14Good. Still here.
14:15Oh, and you're back.
14:16Show me where you keep the case files, please.
14:18I want to pull everything we've got on the Riverboys.
14:20You got a truck?
14:21Look, Felicity didn't listen to me, okay?
14:23She thinks that they're some kind of happy family,
14:25so I need the files to prove they're dangerous,
14:27including the Franklin murder, please.
14:29Uh, why?
14:30Because you said he was investigating Riverboy activity.
14:32Yeah, I did say that,
14:33but you don't want to get involved with Rory Templeton.
14:35Look, was he mentioned in the files?
14:37Was he interviewed?
14:39Look, Joe, my sister was involved with this guy.
14:42Do you think he's got anything to do with this murder?
14:48Rory runs the boys.
14:50He's their leader, so, yeah,
14:52I'd say he's in it up to his eyeballs.
15:03Are you listening to me?
15:05No.
15:06All I am saying is maybe just put things with Rory on ice,
15:09at least until you've had a chance to think through what Kasia said.
15:13Can you get that?
15:15Fine.
15:22Hello again.
15:23Rory.
15:25Next time you head to my hood, let me know.
15:28I'll show you around.
15:29I'll pass.
15:33You look amazing.
15:36You don't look too bad yourself.
15:43Okay.
15:44Uh, excuse us just for one second, please.
15:52What are you doing?
15:53What does it look like? We're going out.
15:54Please don't do this.
15:55Kasia's worried about you.
15:56I am worried about you.
15:58You don't need to be.
15:59You don't know him like I do.
16:00You barely know him.
16:01Flick.
16:04Ready?
16:05Let's do it.
16:06Lizzie, just wait, please.
16:07Bye.
16:16Wow.
16:18Are they all from Xander?
16:20Yep.
16:21I don't know when he's gonna get it through his head
16:23that I don't actually want to talk to him.
16:26Love, he made a mistake.
16:28A big one.
16:29But he's a good person.
16:31And you two are brilliant together.
16:35You've both suffered so much because of what Bronte did.
16:39Don't let her ruin your relationship as well.
16:43Plus it would mean a lot to me if you gave him a second chance.
16:52I'll get it.
16:54Coming.
16:56Hey.
16:57Hey.
16:58What are you two doing here?
17:00Cooking you to dinner.
17:02Oh, look, I appreciate it, but I'm not in the mood.
17:06Ah, we are not taking no for an answer and we got all dressed up.
17:09As my shout.
17:10What? Really?
17:11Oh, come on, you two.
17:12I do shout occasionally.
17:14You don't?
17:15All right.
17:16Give me a couple of minutes and I'll freshen up.
17:19Maybe you could come too.
17:21Depends.
17:23Depends?
17:24Are you going to go to salt?
17:25That's the plan.
17:27Come on.
17:28If he's working, he'll be behind the bar at a distance.
17:43Go on.
17:45Give him a chance.
17:47All right, but I'm only doing this for you.
17:50Hey.
17:51I'm really glad to see you.
17:53Yeah, well, Irene basically forced me.
17:56Well, then I owe her one.
17:59Let's talk on the balcony.
18:01Okay.
18:07Drinks?
18:08Ah, yes.
18:09I will have a glass of red wine.
18:11John, what will you have?
18:13Whiskey, thanks.
18:14Neat.
18:20And for you?
18:31Just a lemonade.
18:33Thank you very much.
18:44You look beautiful.
18:46I doubt it.
18:47You want five minutes to get ready.
18:50Look, I know I messed up.
18:54Yeah, we can agree on that.
18:59I'm sorry that I didn't believe you.
19:01And I hate that I got you in danger.
19:05And I promise it will never happen again.
19:10But you're talking like there is going to be a next time.
19:13Isn't there?
19:16What, you don't think we can get past this?
19:20I don't know.
19:22I don't know how many different ways that I can apologize.
19:25I just...
19:26But if we're going to have a relationship, I need you to meet me halfway.
19:32I see a future with us.
19:33Don't...
19:34Don't you?
19:36I don't know.
19:40Are we over?
19:41Is that what you're saying?
19:46Shit.
20:16Fuck.
20:47I am a second away from falling off the wagon.
20:52I am really hoping that you can talk me out of it.
21:02I thought you might have worked things out at Salk last night.
21:04Not even close.
21:05At least she didn't dump you then and there.
21:07Yeah, but if she said we're done, then at least I'd know what I'm dealing with.
21:10Every time I try and talk to her, she just pushes me away.
21:12You know what that's like.
21:13Every time I try and talk to her, she just pushes me away.
21:15You know what that's like.
21:16Actions speak louder than words.
21:18You are so, so important to me.
21:21You're important to me too.
21:23What are you doing?
21:25I just...
21:26You thought that we would kiss and make up?
21:28Zayna.
21:29You asked me if I see a future for us.
21:31I don't think I do.
