00:00Two doctors perform the tests, and they have to agree to the same result before a diagnosis
00:13of brain death can be made.
00:14Checking the pupils for response to light stimulus.
00:17No response.
00:19Second assessment confirms no brain activity.
00:23She's never waking up, Dash.
00:25I'm not turning the machines off.
00:26It's not happening.
00:27Prove them wrong for me.
00:29She can't leave me.
00:30Please wake up.
00:33I thought I was doing okay.
00:35She's gone.
00:36Yeah, it's all finally good between us.
00:38Now she's gone.
00:39Did Bree talk to you about brief counselling?
00:41No, no, I can't get into that.
00:43I've got a period to think about.
00:44So Felicity's his ex?
00:46I know they'd been through a lot.
00:48I think she was the love of his life.
00:50Dana, I really need you right now.
00:54What are you doing here?
00:58You should be at the hospital with her.
01:00You need to go and say goodbye.
01:11Hi.
01:12Hey, you okay?
01:13Hey, sorry.
01:14I'm sorry.
01:15It's just a mess.
01:16I'm sorry about your plans.
01:17No, no, no.
01:18We were just hanging out.
01:19Listen, I might leave you two, but if I see Tan, I'll...
01:22Dana, you told him!
01:24No, it came out.
01:25I'm so sorry.
01:26He's not going to tell Tan.
01:27Yeah, you can trust me.
01:28It's fine.
01:29Or my sister, not so much.
01:30I might leave you two out.
01:32I'm so sorry.
01:33I really am.
01:34It's okay.
01:35I should have known that you were going to tell him everything.
01:38I have the ultrasound today.
01:39What?
01:40I was okay to do it on my own, but now I just don't want to do it on my own.
01:45It's not the plan, remember?
01:47I'm your support girl, so you've got to let me support you.
01:52Yeah, thank you.
01:55If I wasn't so excited, I'd be a bit offended you didn't ask me before.
01:59Are you sure you don't want Tan to go?
02:02Because you're going to see your baby for the first time.
02:04It's really special.
02:07He's going through a lot.
02:09It just doesn't feel right.
02:12Okay.
02:15Come on.
02:17Let's go meet my baby.
02:22Yes.
02:36It's okay, isn't it?
02:37Yeah, yeah.
02:44Come say goodbye.
02:46She's going to pull through.
02:47They cashed her.
02:49And the doctors said that it's just not possible.
02:52Don't worry, sister.
03:01First time I saw her, she was dancing on a bar, the nightclub.
03:09She wasn't like anyone I'd ever met.
03:12I don't think a day went by I didn't see her dancing with someone, you know?
03:16Too loved her.
03:18Couldn't keep her still.
03:22That's how I want to remember her.
03:28Not like this.
03:29Me too.
03:30Stop talking about her like she's not here.
03:37I'm sorry.
03:38I'm here.
03:42How long do you plan on sitting here, Cash?
03:45Until she opens her eyes.
03:48It's not going to happen, mate.
03:51She just needs more time.
03:56Listen.
03:59I know you...
04:02I get that you don't want to let it go.
04:04But keeping her here like this, it's...
04:08It's not what she'd want.
04:18I'm not ready.
04:21I know.
04:22I know.
04:25But it's time.
04:34It's time.
04:42This hardly feels real.
04:44Yeah, but it is real.
04:46How did I end up here?
04:48Oh, do you need me to explain?
04:49Um, so it's when a boy meets a girl.
04:52I meant I never planned for this.
04:55I know.
04:56It's very unlike you.
04:58I have no idea what to expect.
04:59I mean, what if there's something wrong with the baby?
05:01What then?
05:03We are going to slow down that runaway mind of yours.
05:07And we're just going to enjoy this moment.
05:10Okay?
05:11Because your baby is going to be so beautiful.
05:14Well, I mean, it's probably going to be a little blob on the screen.
05:16But you are going to love it anyway.
05:20Harper Matheson?
05:21Yeah, that's me.
05:23And you're the other mum?
05:24Oh, no.
05:25I am the cool aunt.
05:27The dad couldn't be here, so I'm going to get first peek.
05:30I'll give you plenty of photos to show him.
05:33Alrighty, I'll set up and we'll take a look at your baby.
05:36Yeah.
05:45It's time to make some decisions.
05:49She's still warm.
05:50That's because of the machines, Cash.
05:53The machines are circulating blood through her body and keeping her heart beating.
05:57But that's all that's going on here.
06:00I'm sorry.
06:01It's okay.
06:03It's okay.
06:06It just shouldn't end like this.
06:11She had so much left to do.
06:15Hello.
06:16Tom.
06:17Hi.
06:18Tom, this is Tane and Eden.
06:21And this is Cash, Felicity's brother.
06:23Hi.
06:25Guys, I called Tom here today because I need to talk to you about something.
06:29Did any of you ever have a discussion with Felicity about organ donation?
06:36No.
06:37No, I never did.
06:39We never discussed it either.
06:41What do you think?
06:42Well, I'm not her next of kin anymore.
06:44Well, I don't know.
06:47I don't know.
06:49That's okay.
06:50It's absolutely your decision.
06:52But please know that Felicity could help save lives and improve the lives of others.
06:59Some people find it comforting to know that their loved one is going to help save lives.
07:14If I consent it.
07:18How's it work?
07:23I see it.
07:24Oh, wow.
07:26Did you see the heart beating?
07:27Yeah, it's nice and strong.
07:30Just the way we like it.
07:32Look at that.
07:34It was just like you.
07:36No, I mean it.
07:37Like a little blob.
07:39It's incredible.
07:41Okay.
07:42Sit tight while I take some measurements.
07:47Harper.
07:49You're going to be a mum.
07:52I really am.
07:53I really am.
07:57It's just like any other operation.
08:00Felicity will be treated with the same dignity and respect as any other patient.
08:06And after the operation?
08:08Can we see her?
08:09Yeah.
08:10Of course you can.
08:11How do you decide where she goes?
08:14There's a long waiting list of people.
08:16Some people have been on it for years.
08:19It's rare to find a suitable donor, but Felicity could be one.
08:27What do you think?
08:29When I think about her heart beating in someone else.
08:35Someone who can dance in love.
08:40Someone who can maybe torment their big brother.
08:45That sounds pretty good to me.
08:47If we could like that.
08:48Yeah.
08:50So...
08:52I don't get my system and somebody else gets to have theirs.
08:55Seven people could, Cash.
08:58That's how many people she could save.
09:04Okay.
09:07Do it.
09:09I still can't believe there's a tiny little human growing inside me.
09:13Things just got very real.
09:16So, what is the plan going to be with Tana?
09:20Oh, I have six whole months to tell him.
09:23I mean, sure.
09:24But what are you going to do when you start showing?
09:26Because that's going to happen sooner rather than later.
09:28And I think your personal trainer might know something's going on in there.
09:31I'll just wear really baggy t-shirts.
09:33Oh, you're a genius.
09:36He's going to know.
09:37He's going to ask who the father is.
09:39Well, that's just rude because it's my business.
09:41Hey, sorry.
09:42Come on.
09:43I'm being serious.
09:44I'm being serious.
09:45Dana, I get it.
09:46Okay, but can you just let me enjoy this for a minute?
09:51Yes.
09:53That's Aunty Dana to you.
09:54Thank you very much.
09:58I think I can see a family resemblance.
10:01I think it's a boy or a girl.
10:02Well, can you even tell yet?
10:04No.
10:08The transplant team is almost ready.
10:10Once you've signed this, we can get things underway.
10:14I'm sorry.
10:29It won't be long now.
10:44Only know you love her when you let her go
10:51And you let her go
10:56Staring at the bottom of your glass
10:58Hoping one day you'll make the dream last
11:02The dreams come slow and they go so fast
11:10You see her when you close your eyes
11:13Maybe one day you'll understand why
11:16Everything you touch surely dies
11:23But you only need the light when it's burning low
11:27Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
11:31Only know you love her when you let her go
11:34I didn't think that we would be doing this until we were gray and old.
11:39But man, we had fun.
11:43I love you.
11:45And I'll miss you.
11:48And remember that you would have been the best sister-in-law.
12:07You changed my life for the better.
12:11I'll never forget you.
12:13Cause you loved her too much
12:15And you dived too deep
12:20I did not.
12:21I could not.
12:29I don't really know what to say.
12:32Yes, you do.
12:37It's like there's so much that I still want to say to you.
12:43So I'm just gonna say I love you
12:47And goodbye.
13:13How beautiful it was when everyone lined up.
13:16Leslie would have loved that.
13:17Could we not?
13:19Sorry.
13:23Maybe we should go for a walk, get some fresh air. We've been in the room for days.
13:27I'm not going anywhere until I get Flick back.
13:29Guys, you're both wrecked. Maybe a break's a good idea.
13:31Okay, how about you two go for a walk?
13:39Hello. Can we think about it?
13:41We'll have her back with you shortly.
13:52I might go get a drink.
14:04I can't believe Cash is still standing.
14:05I don't know about him, but he hasn't touched her.
14:08He can't go on like this.
14:10How are you holding up?
14:12He needs to eat something.
14:14Oh, Cash, how are you doing?
14:18I can't believe she's gone, Rick.
14:22She was supposed to be my moon of honor.
14:26My moon of honor.
14:31I'm never gonna see her again.
14:34I know.
14:36I'm gonna start a diary.
14:38Oh yeah, we'll see how long that lasts.
14:41I'm gonna write down everything.
14:43I never want to forget how today felt.
14:49What?
14:52Nothing.
14:53I think a diary is going to be very useful when you're up all night with a sleepless baby.
14:57I don't know what you're talking about. My baby will be perfect.
15:00My baby can be perfect.
15:02I don't know what you're talking about. My baby will be perfect.
15:05My baby is perfect.
15:06Ask this man.
15:07How was the ultrasound?
15:12Look at that.
15:13Baby's healthy, hitting all the milestones.
15:16Yes, bit of an overachiever, like its mum.
15:19You can already see the report card.
15:21Such a joy to teach.
15:23Well, it's good to have something to look forward to.
15:27You want to order some food?
15:29Hold that thought.
15:30No, why?
15:31Bathroom.
15:32They make you drink so much water before those things.
15:36She seems to be embracing this.
15:38Yeah.
15:39It's a bit of a shame she can't share it with Tana though.
15:41Like, I know today wouldn't be the right day.
15:43No, definitely not.
15:45What does that mean?
15:48Cash.
15:49Cash has finally agreed for Felicity's life support to be turned off.
16:00Hello?
16:30I'll leave you to it.
16:44I can go too, if you want some time alone with her.
16:49Actually, yeah, if you don't mind.
16:54I'm sorry.
16:55I'm sorry.
16:56I'm sorry.
16:57I'm sorry.
16:58I'm sorry.
16:59I'm sorry.
17:30Come on.
17:38You're back with mom and dad now.
17:42Just like you always wanted.
18:00Yeah.
18:13Sleep well, little sister.
18:30Why don't I get you something to eat?
18:34Until there's something in the fridge that I can knock off.
18:44Please, babe.
18:47You gotta eat something.
19:00I love you.

21:06Music
21:09She's so worried about Tāna
21:11Yeah, it's a bit more complicated now, right?
21:13What?
21:14It's weird that I know about the pregnancy before Tāna
21:16It's her choice, the other day I can't make her tell him
21:18It's not the right time
21:19But what if it is the right time?
21:21I want him to want to be a part of this, not out of some sense of obligation
21:25because I told him at the worst possible moment
21:27You said that he is going to be thrilled about this baby
21:29It's not the baby that I'm worried about
21:31Okay
21:32I know that you have some feelings for him
21:34No!
21:36I'm in love with him
