00:00No, so he is serious about calling off the wedding?
00:03Yep.
00:04Well, I mean, I'm sure once he's had time to process it, he will cool down.
00:08Look, I get that he's upset. I should have told him about Alec.
00:13But calling everything off, don't you think that's a little extreme,
00:16considering how hard he's fought for us in the past?
00:19I chased Vanessa like a puppy dog.
00:21You know, I've given her everything I possibly can,
00:23and now she drops this on me only because she had to.
00:26She was fairly young.
00:29OK, if it wasn't such a big deal, why keep it from me?
00:32Maybe if her family didn't know, she felt like she couldn't bring it up.
00:36We've already made a trip to the altar. It must have been on her mind then.
00:39Is this what it's about? I mean, did he mention anything else?
00:42Oh, son, it's obvious why.
00:45He's looking for an excuse to end things so that he can go and be with Steph.
00:49No.
00:50It's not that crazy. I know how much he used to care about her.
00:53I mean, you know he was willing to run away with her.
00:56When she was telling the story, she said a really weird thing.
00:59She said that this Alec guy was the reason
01:02that she was able to go through a sham wedding with me.
01:05Meaning?
01:06The way she said it, the look on her face.
01:09It was like she loved him so much and was so hurt that it ended
01:12that she was able to go on autopilot with me.
01:14A lot has happened since then.
01:16He says they're just mates, but she's always around him, always near him.
01:20Maybe she's brought up old feelings in him.
01:24Tell me I'm wrong.
01:25Well, you know, you know I wasn't easy about her coming back.
01:29Yeah.
01:30And now?
01:31Yeah, well, now I just, I do.
01:32I find it strange that all this has happened now that she's back in town.
01:34Because?
01:35She's trying to win him back.
01:36No, no, we're reading too much into it, Vanessa.
01:39We got together through a circumstance of friendship,
01:42not a burning desire like with this Alec bloke.
01:44Sometimes the strongest relationships can start off as friends at first.
01:47I mean, what about you and Steph?
01:49This has got nothing to do with Steph.
01:51No, what I'm saying is that you were friends before you got together.
01:54So how is this any different?
01:55Well, I don't know what else to do.
01:57I've told him how much I love him, but if I'm competing with somebody else...
01:59No, look, listen, no.
02:00Look, one thing I do know is that Lucas loves you and Patrick very, very much.
02:03And you just, you do, you need to trust him.
02:05Come on, even though he just called off the wedding.
02:06He...
02:07Just give him time.
02:08He will come to his senses and he will see what a mistake this is.
02:14I feel so terrible about what happened.
02:16Please know that the entire incident will be wiped from your record
02:19and you'll receive back pay for the time you had off.
02:22I'm just glad that it's all over and that I can come back to work.
02:28So what's going to happen to Tina?
02:30The appropriate authorities are dealing with her.
02:33But she's not the reason I asked you here.
02:36Are you still interested in applying to do that emergency course?
02:39Well, yeah, I...
02:41I mean, I was, but it seems like a long shot, especially now.
02:45I'm sure we can clear all this.
02:47You show a lot of potential.
02:48I'd be happy to put in a good word for you.
02:50Are you serious?
02:51After what you've had to put up with, it's the least we could do.
02:54It'd be a fantastic opportunity.
02:56You could work overseas.
02:58Yeah, I've always dreamt about that.
03:00Well, here's your big chance.
03:03You don't know how much this means to me.
03:05Thank you so, so much, Carol.
03:12Yeah, well, it's always been a long-term goal of mine.
03:15And with this qualification, I'd be able to.
03:18How long would you go for?
03:20I'm not sure.
03:21Right.
03:22Oh, anyway, it's all a big if, but since Carol Crane made the offer,
03:27why not start the process?
03:29Yeah, why not?
03:31It's not for ages away, so it's best to just live in the moment, right?
03:35Sure.
03:38You jumped out of the spa pretty quick before.
03:41Uh, yeah, yeah, I'm sorry.
03:43I had a few urgent things to take care of.
03:46Everything's OK?
03:47Yeah, of course.
03:49I'm just checking, because if it isn't, you should tell me.
03:53No, it is.
03:56So, if you got accepted, when would all this happen exactly?
03:59Oh, not for ages.
04:01Well, a year, at least, which would give us plenty of time to plan.
04:04But, you know, with this course, I'd be able to travel almost anywhere,
04:07so it would be a huge adventure.
04:20Steph.
04:22Sonia.
04:23That's not your bike, is it?
04:25No, it's Lucas's. He's just letting me borrow it.
04:30Look, I, um, I'm just going to say it.
04:33You're overstepping the line, Steph.
04:35Um, OK.
04:38Besides borrowing a friend's bike, what have I done that's so horribly wrong?
04:41Look, I'm talking about Lucas and Vanessa's relationship.
04:43I haven't done anything.
04:44Are you sure? Because since you've been back, it feels like nothing's changed.
04:47Look, Lucas has moved on. He's engaged to Vanessa.
04:49They have a child together,
04:50and I think that you need to try harder to respect the boundaries.
04:52If Lucas and Vanessa are having problems, it's got nothing to do with me.
04:55And, frankly, after everything we've been through,
04:59it's a real shame you and I can't manage to be friends.
05:03Steph, are you OK?
05:05Sonia just attacked me.
05:07Sonia?
05:08She just ripped into me.
05:09OK, OK, calm down. Tell me what happened.
05:12I was getting on your bike, and she just, suddenly,
05:15she was just up in my face just ranting at me.
05:17About what?
05:18She's saying that I'm trying to get back together with Lucas.
05:20What are you talking about?
05:21I don't know.
05:22I'm talking about a bike.
05:23A bike.
05:24Is it?
05:25It's a bike.
05:26It's a bike.
05:27Oh.
05:28I'm sorry.
05:29I don't know.
05:30Ranting about what saying that I'm trying to cause trouble between you and Vanessa. You don't believe that do you know?
05:36No, I mean, I didn't even know you guys were having trouble until Sonia told me
05:41She said that yeah, she said that you guys were unhappy or something. I don't know
05:46Is everything okay? No, it's not actually
05:49Doesn't look like the wedding is gonna go ahead. Oh Lucas. I'm so sorry. I had no idea
05:54Yeah, I've called it off you you called it off
05:58It's a long story
06:02Well, I guess I'll get the blame for that do that it's got nothing to do with you tell Sonia that
06:08What happens between me and Vanessa is our own business. No one else's. I'll make sure Sonia knows that next time I see her
06:14I just feel so awkward seeing her again
06:17She can't believe she said those things
06:28I
06:40Think you don't
06:43I'm taking patty and we're gonna go and say a month. Yeah, I saw them downstairs
06:48Vanessa you don't want to marry me. What do you want me to do stick around and suck it up?
06:53No
06:58You know, maybe you're right maybe we do need some time apart
07:10Yep thought you'd say that
07:24Come in
07:27Hi, hey Steph, no, she hasn't come back yet. Oh, you okay?
07:35Couldn't believe it when you texted. I'm so sorry. It's not your fault. I just I was worried about you
07:42I thought you could do with some company
07:44And maybe one or two of these
07:46Mm-hmm
07:51Have you eaten yeah, oh good. So I'm gonna cook for you. How does steak sound?
07:57pepper sauce
07:59Wouldn't have it any other way. Oh
08:07Thanks, I'm really glad you contacted me me too
08:13Like old times
08:16I
08:24Had an amazing day. Good night. Good night
08:46You
09:17You
09:37Thank you so much for helping me with this yeah, no worries when it's big guns Mason when you need him
09:42Um
09:43He's actually he's at his house
09:46Bailey and Matt have their hearing this morning. Oh
09:49Sorry, has he got a court date for himself yet? Yep next week. I'm just trying not to think about it. How's Kyle?
09:56Yeah, things have gotten a bit more complicated. I sent off my application for the emergency nursing course. Oh
10:03What's that mean? Ah?
10:05Well, if I'm successful
10:08Eventually, I'll be traveling the world working
10:11You do realize that Kyle doesn't really have the best history with long-distance relationships. Yeah, I know
10:18So what did you tell him? Well, he doesn't actually know yet. I told him that I wasn't gonna apply
10:25Really? Yeah, it's not a big deal. No, Georgia. It is a big deal. You're lying to your boyfriend
10:30Well, he's just gonna find someone better than me at some point
10:32Anyway, look we've talked about this Kyle wants to be with you
10:36I'm sick of hearing you say that Kyle's gonna run off with someone else. He's the most loyal guy
10:41I know and secondly you have to tell him about that application
10:44Come here. We'll just live in the moment
10:47You and Kyle are the real deal and when you are the real deal you think about the future
10:52Imagine how he's gonna feel if you get in and then he realizes you've been lying to him this whole time. I
10:59Think I need the toilet again you went twice before we left home. It's just nerves you think
11:04Right, are we all ready? We're just waiting on AJ
11:09Look, you know, we don't all need to be there. I want to be there. I appreciate it
11:13I but given you got your own court case coming up and knowing what Hayes is like
11:16It might be counterproductive if you're in the room be great if you could wait with your mom, though
11:21Hey holding up. I'll be stoked if I just stayed conscious
11:26You guys it's all gonna be okay and what if it's not it will be
11:31AJ's confident, right? Yeah, absolutely
11:35Let me take another look at that I mom you guys
11:40You know, I just got a call from Superintendent Hayes. He wants to meet with you first
11:45Right, oh you guys should probably wait here. I'll give you a buzz when it's time to come to the station
11:49We thought we just wait in the waiting area. Hey J. That's right. There's no telling how long this might take
11:56Hey, um, good luck
12:00I
12:31You
12:34Dad still got his job and Bailey's been let off with a warning. Oh, that's fantastic
12:38You must be so relieved. Yeah, I reckon. Hey, dude, and hopefully it's a good omen for next week. Yeah, hopefully
12:45Hello, yes speaking
12:49Yeah, I just give me a sec I tell me to die off
12:53So
12:55Who wants to watch a DVD new girl in the house gets to pick cool sounds good actually, you know
13:00Well, I think I have a Ryan Gosling film somewhere
13:03The next big hurdle, of course is Mason. Yeah, just got to concentrate on getting in the lightest possible sentence
13:08Oh lucky. We've got our illustrious lawyer on the job, right? I J
13:12Yeah. Yeah, I'll touch to that
13:17Yeah, this like stare thing going down it's like some sort of Vulcan mind meld
13:22Do you have the green skin and pointy ears as well? I'm serious
13:25It was like he's could totally tell if I was bullying him or not. It's all over now and that's what counts
13:31Not for you. Will you guys stop? We're meant to be celebrating. Let's celebrate. Yeah, it's just not that easy
13:37Don't worry about me. I'll be fine
13:39Besides I think I might even be starting to win Paul over
13:44Hey Ronnie, yeah. Yeah. I'm a free man
13:51You're not really fine are you
13:53Juvie was bad enough
13:55They locked me away this time. It's for real. They're not gonna lock you away. I've got form
13:59Yeah, but you didn't actually commit the robbery still looking like a 20-year sentence
14:03They're not gonna go easy on me like they did with Bailey
14:08I'm scared. I don't know if I can hack it
14:14You
14:18Hands down best beer I've ever had so when do I get something you can't
14:23They only do a couple of hundred cases a year subscribers only really I
14:28May know someone who knows
14:31Okay, what's it gonna cost me?
14:33I'm sure we can work something out
14:36You already oh, yeah, I'm gonna go to me to spark you about this place. This has been nice
14:42Miss hanging out. Yeah, did I catch it?
14:52Vanessa call me last night. She was pretty upset
14:55She's not the only one
14:57Why don't you just drive down to Rosebud and patch things up with her?
15:00I'm not gonna happen after everything that you guys have been through a couple if you just given up on her like that
15:05I'm not the one who's given up
15:07Okay, all right, I'm just gonna try and find the right words for this for what
15:11Okay for the timing of all this Steph comes back, and you have problems with it. Okay, Steph is not the problem
15:16Okay, you just being so dogmatic about this, and I'm I
15:21Would hate to think that Steph is using this to her is being a mate, which is what I need right now
15:26Why are you sure that she says it that way?
15:29Unlike Vanessa Steph hasn't lied to me. I know where I stand with her
15:35She's not the problem
15:38Hey
15:40You should have told me you're going for a run. I would have come with you. Oh, I'll text you next time
15:45So I haven't seen you around much lately yeah, sorry I've been really busy with Tafe
15:52So have you seen much of that old guy that you went on a date with Shane or whatever his name is
15:58Seamus
15:59He's not old. He's in his 20s
16:02No, I haven't
16:04But we have arranged to meet up for lunch today. Hence the run
16:07Are you sure that's a good idea? Well, he's hot
16:11And I do have the day off today. I
16:13Just thought you said you were taking a break from guys for a while. Well, it has been a while
16:18Did I mention he was hot you don't think it's a bit full-on. Do you just met the guy?
16:23We're having lunch at Charlie's. I'm not marrying him even if it was possible in this country
16:29Trust me you not say no to a guy this cute
16:33See you later
16:37Hey
16:40Hey, hey, I I just can't shake the feeling that Steph is manipulating Lucas. Well, I'm really good. Thanks
16:47Look to be fair. I don't think it's Steph's fault that Vanessa lied about her past
16:50Yeah, I know, but she's using it to her advantage. I mean someone needs to be getting into Lucas's ear
16:54Okay, now you're taking it too far. I agree that they're spending a lot of time together
16:57Okay, please please. I know I know that you were friends
16:59But you need to get over this intense loyalty that you feel to order and just open up your eyes
17:03Hey, I care about everyone. Thank you. Look. I just think the reason why Steph is latching on to Lucas
17:08It's so that she doesn't have to deal with this. It's the documents from Steph and Max's custody hearing and
17:13Well, Max applied for custody to take Charlie to Fiji
17:17Before Steph got parole
17:18I think the only reason why the judge agreed to it is because Steph was facing another four and a half years at that
17:23Time now that she's out. She's got a good chance of getting access or something in my opinion
17:27Yes, but I think the Steph is just too scared to even hope for that
17:30The first relationship the Steph needs to be fixing is the one with her son
17:35When I went shopping all I wanted to do is buy some decent shirts, but seriously is anybody making anything good these days
17:40Well, I like to think so. Oh
17:43No, no, no, not you. I mean you look great. It's just um
17:47Look, I'm sorry. I'm really nervous
17:50Keep talking and my brain is telling me to shut up, but I just can't relax. I'm nervous, too
17:56Can we start again? Yeah, sure
18:01So
18:03What have you been up to since I saw you last I took my car for a drive along the Great Ocean Road
18:08You guys you did a great job on it
18:10Yes, that's a great drive. Yeah. Yeah, maybe we could hit out there one day. Hey guys
18:16Hi, why aren't you at school? Oh, I had a free I could not stop thinking about wedges and sour cream
18:31I'm gonna make
18:33Hey
18:35I'm sorry. This is kind of awkward, but I need to know when Vanessa's coming back. Well, you've got a number give her a call
18:40Yeah, I've tried keep getting message bank. Oh
18:43Is it important?
18:45Yeah. Yeah, I need to get away for a few days. I'm just wondering if she'll be back to work at the store
18:51Where are you going?
18:53Um
18:55Vintage bike festival. Oh, yeah, where is it this year up in the ranges? I'm gonna camp out for a few days see the Eclipse
19:03Now it's a weekend bikes music swag under the stars
19:07You should come
19:09No, I can't. Yeah, you can take your bike. I'll hire one
19:13Yeah, come on. You'd love it. You can't honestly tell me you wouldn't want to be out in the road right now
19:18I
19:20Think about it you should be good for you. I'm gonna get back to it
19:30He didn't even finish his meal what was that about he had to go back to work. Yeah, right
19:36Some of us don't have the whole day off
19:39still rude
19:40Says the girl who crushes our date and then doesn't get the million hints to leave us alone
19:45Thanks
19:48I was only checking him out because I was worried about you
19:51He's an accountant not a serial killer. I could find you a much better guy
19:56Why don't you come over to my house tonight? We'll watch a movie talk about what kind of guy you are and I'll give you advice
20:03Shameless he said he was gonna call and while he's calling. Yeah. Well, don't answer. You don't want to seem too desperate
20:11Hello
20:13Hey
20:16Yeah, I'd love to
20:19That sounds great
20:22Okay, cool, well, I will see you then I buy
20:30He wants to meet up again take me out on a proper date
20:34Anywhere special Charlie's boring and then dinner in town and to check out some new little club
20:40What sort of guy pours it on that quickly that's a little bit suspicious if you ask me, okay, what is going on here?
20:46I'm just being a concerned friend. No, there's something more than that, isn't it?
20:50I just know what it's like to be used by a guy who just tells you everything that you want to hear
20:56Care about you too much. I
20:59Love you for saying that you are an awesome friend
21:04So movie night, um, no, I think he's worth the risk better get home get ready. Yeah
21:17Hey
21:18Jelly burgers and those beers. I was telling you about
21:21genius
21:23Wait till you taste the sauce nice and hot. Hmm too hot for you. You think I can't handle it
21:29Well, you know man gives up his bike general softness follows I
21:34Thought you girls like the sensitive types
21:37But marry a wimp and spend the rest of your life lusting after tradies. No, not this girl
21:44So is that a yes to the sauce bring it on
21:48Crack those beers anything is possible
21:53Wait till you taste it. It's gold. No, I'll leave it
21:56I
21:58Can't Vanessa
22:01Hey, how are you?
22:07Well, I figured you could have called me
22:10Why should I apologize I haven't done anything wrong
22:17Well, maybe you just can't accept the fact that you've completely overreacted
22:26So you didn't hear that
22:29Do you want to be alone? I can go now fine
22:33Well, maybe you should go down there. That's what Vanessa wants. What about what I want?
22:42You're right that is one hell of a beer. Mm-hmm. Let's crank things up a bit
22:56You
23:02Wow twice in one day, what are the chances?
23:05What do you want?
23:07Chris told me about your date. Well, it was nice to meet you before but we'd rather not have you along on this one. I
23:14Probably shouldn't be telling you this but I feel like you should know
23:18Chris had a really messy breakup a little while ago. Really not my business, but he likes you
23:24So, please just don't hurt him, okay
23:27Look, it's cute that you're concerned, but don't worry me and Chris. It's nothing serious. It's not I don't do serious
23:34I'm just out for some fun. No one's gonna get their heart broken. Oh
23:40And threes a crowd so if you're not here by the time I get back, that'd be great
23:53You
24:16Hey
24:17Hey, you won't believe this
24:20What's wrong Seamus cancelled our date
24:23Did he say why no, maybe he's just not that serious. I'm gonna find out. Oh, don't give him the satisfaction. I
24:32Mean if this is the way that he's gonna treat you then why bother responding?
24:37Yeah, you're right
24:38It's bad enough being rejected
24:41Forget about him. He's so not worth it. I told you can't trust accountants. Yeah, I know I just
24:49Felt like we had this connection. Oh, hey, come on. I mean there are plenty of better people out there for you
24:58And in the meantime, you've got me
25:01Come on
25:06No, I didn't stand you up Seamus I thought you cancelled
25:10Well
25:13I'm really sorry. I don't know what happened
25:16Well, maybe we can catch up later, okay, how about tomorrow night
25:24Everything all right, I got a text from Seamus bailing on our date earlier and he reckons he didn't send it
25:29I thought your lunch went really well. Well, it did I mean apart from amber crashing it
25:34But he asked me out afterwards so that couldn't put him off
25:39Either way, I guess I'm better off without him
25:46So who's up for a movie tonight
25:49Maybe some other time
25:51Are you sure? There's a new Mexican place. We could check it out afterwards. I'm not really in the mood right now
25:58Should have known it was too good to be true
26:01Drove a good car. It was smart funny hot. He wasn't that hot
26:08Okay, he was kind of hot but on the inside he was cold see that's the message
26:15Why would he deny sending it?
26:17Maybe he's just a player
26:20See normally I can pick those guys
26:24Chris you're not gonna want to hear this but yeah, well, whatever it is
26:29Can't make things much worse
26:32Thanks, but I'm a really good company for anyone right now
26:46I
26:47Loot I
26:49How's the family?
26:51Holding up all things considered
26:53Have you noticed young amber spending a lot of time at our house with Chris?
26:59Yeah, they seem to be good mates. Oh very good mate. Some would say almost like a couple
27:05Except for one very important thing. They're hardly on
27:09The same team
27:11Yes, but how much experience does amber have with Chris's team exactly?
27:15I mean, there can't be too many out and proud in Mount Isa can there although you never know with those money
27:21I wouldn't have a clue Sheila. Why do you ask?
27:23Well, do you think it's possible that she might want Chris to join her team and why would she want that?
27:29He is happy with his team
27:32Because some people bet for both teams, you know kick with both feet
27:37Do you think she wants Chris to visit her team shit? What the heck are you getting at?
27:41I think she's falling for him. Oh, why would she do that? Well, she's a teenage girl and he's a sweet good-looking boy
27:48I mean, she wouldn't be the first one to fall into that trap. She's quite vulnerable
27:52No, I know that you mentioned that she does talk about him a lot. Well, I think it's time you had a word with her
27:57Why me?
27:59You're her grandfather and you're harder to ignore and God knows
28:02I'm sure that you've made just as many stupid mistakes in the name of love. I don't like meddling
28:09Maybe it'll all blow over and maybe she'll end up heartbroken
28:17I
28:22Know you said you wanted to be alone, but you didn't listen to me on my birthday
28:26So I'm not gonna listen to you about this
28:29It's not fattening if you're upset
28:31So eat up
28:34Didn't have to do this
28:37No, actually I did
28:40Look, I'm sorry about being in a bad mood earlier. No, it's okay. I understand seriously
28:45You're the last person I should be taking it out on
28:47I'm the one that should be apologizing actually before you're right about Seamus. No, I wasn't I
28:55Sabotaged your date. I
28:57Sent the text from Seamus's phone
29:01Why I saw him that afternoon and he said he didn't want anything serious with you
29:07So what he was clearly gonna break your heart
29:11So I took his phone when he wasn't watching. I
29:15Sent you the text and then I deleted it who does that kind of thing a
29:19friend
29:22Although you could say this kind of pushes me into crazy territory you could say that I was just trying to look out for you
29:32Think you should leave. I know it was wrong, but I did it for the right reasons
29:52Oh
29:55Oh
29:56Hey, how are rehearsals? Uh, yeah, great. And how was your interview? I think that I've done enough to get in
30:03Wow, so when are you gonna break the news to Kyle? Oh, I don't have any news yet
30:07Like I said, I'll tell him when I have to
30:10You know, it sounds like you're trying to protect yourself
30:13You'd know
30:15What? Oh Mason could be going to jail and you're acting like nothing's wrong. Like it's all gonna be okay
30:21That's not true, that's okay I get it if you keep your distance don't get too invested you don't get hurt
30:30I'm doing the same thing with Kyle
30:32Enjoying the moment while it lasts
30:35Just like you
30:38Yeah
30:52AJ
30:54Hey, let's give a favor, please as a friend. Yeah, of course
30:58Mason's case. I need to know what his chances are. He's my boyfriend and I have no idea what's going on. Okay, but
31:06Don't you and Mason talk about it? Not really
31:10Well when we do
31:12Sometimes he seems totally fine with it and other times he acts like he's convinced he's going to jail
31:17Look I'm not asking you to breach your confidentiality. I just want a more objective opinion
31:22All right, listen, he's pleading guilty and that usually wins favor with a judge
31:27He didn't steal anything. So that'll be taken into account as well. Okay?
31:32Well, could that be enough to keep him out of jail?
31:34Okay, it's it's like a lottery, you know, it really is
31:37I mean, it depends on the judge or what mood they're in what sentences they've given for similar charges
31:41Tell me the truth AJ I need to hear it
31:44Okay
31:47It's armed robbery
31:49And he's already got a record. Yeah
31:51I mean, I know he had his reasons and all that but at the end of the day, it's a very serious crime. I
31:57don't want to say it but
32:00You could say time
32:03Sorry
32:05I
32:10Can't say I'm surprised I didn't warn you after the pool party doesn't mean she has a crush on me
32:15She just thinks he's bad for me
32:18I'm not saying that what she did is okay. You're fooling yourself
32:21This is just like Rock Hudson and Doris Day Peter Allen and Liza Minnelli Phil and Judy
32:26For the last two a couple I met in Frankston. Look love is blind and amber is Ray Charles. It is ridiculous
32:34Then how come she wants to spend every waking moment with you or do everything she possibly can to keep you away from anyone else
32:41Well, she has to know it's never gonna happen realistically
32:44Reality doesn't get much of a look in when a person is falling for someone
32:48People pay more attention to their hearts than to their heads and you've got to remember. She's a teenage girl
32:54Okay, if it is true and I'm not saying it is
32:57What do I do put some distance between you for a while? She's become one of my closest friends
33:03Probably my best friend the more time you spend together the harder it will be
33:17I see what well done mate. Well done and hope it works. Well, yeah only a few days till the Eclipse work to be done
33:25Say amber come and sit down for a minute. I should really go do my one take one
33:33I wanted to talk to you about Chris
33:37Now I know the two of you become good friends lately, but I just wanted to make sure there's nothing more to it
33:45Of course not. No, I'm glad because um
33:49Not because things like that can hurt
33:53You know
33:55There were some wonderful things about growing up in Australia when I was a kid
34:00But other parts weren't so great
34:03especially if you were a bit
34:05different
34:08There was this bloke that lived in our Street piano teacher he was different I
34:15Say everybody knew that he was gay, but people didn't speak about that sort of thing in those days
34:20Anyway, I guess he got tired of being different and he married a woman from the area a nice girl nice girl
34:29They try to make it work
34:32But they couldn't
34:35What's your point Gramps sweetheart you can't fight nature when it comes to love
34:42Anyone who tells you different is either a fool or a politician
34:48Chris doesn't have to hide who he is anymore. I'm not trying to convert him if that's what you mean. I'm glad
34:57You're both two wonderful young people
34:59And your hearts are too precious to be wasted on someone who cannot love you the way that you love them
35:09Gramps Chris, and I had just friends. There's nothing to worry about I better go do my homework
35:30Georgia
35:37Hello, I'm sorry she can't come to the phone. Can I take a message?
35:44I'll let her know
35:51Sorry about that hmm
35:54I
35:55Said I was sorry
35:56About what Oh for taking so long. I didn't think that you'd be here on time to be honest
36:02You got a phone call while you're in the bathroom. Let me guess telemarketers the admissions board
36:08about your post-grad course
36:11So you did apply for it even though you told me that you weren't going to I
36:16Might not get in it's ages away
36:19But I don't get why you'd say one thing and then go and do the opposite
36:22I know you don't want to go overseas so why discuss it if you're accepted it affects both of us
36:26It's at least a year away Kyle
36:29Look, I didn't see the point in raising something that was gonna be irrelevant either way. How does that work?
36:36Can we just forget it and focus on the here and now and what about later you'll be fine I
36:44Don't understand what you're doing. I don't want to be the one who ends up with nothing
36:47Why would you because that's the way it goes
36:50You know what let's just save us both a lot of time and we'll end it now
36:57You're breaking up with me
37:00Yeah
37:04You should go
37:15I
37:18Thought we're going really well and then she got it into her head that we would have broken up
37:22Anyway, it's like she quit her job before she got fired
37:26You do realize why she feels like that, right? No, I thought I was pulling out all the stops for her
37:33It's because of the whole Scotty thing. She's still messed up by how that ended. Yeah, I'm not exactly Scotty. No, I know that
37:42It's just
37:43I think she's struggling to trust someone else when she doesn't even trust herself anymore
37:49What do I do
37:51Look, I don't know. I think what she really needs is closure from Scotty. They're not communicating at the moment
38:01Look you two will work things out. Just don't give up on her. Okay?
38:13You
38:23Hello
38:28Look I'm sorry, but I meant what I said last night, but that's not why I'm here
38:32Okay, but if you want some kind of explanation, I just I can't think I'm the one that needs an explanation
38:37You do though. Hey
38:40Scotty
38:42You've got questions and he's the only one that can answer him
38:57Just more I
39:00Just wish I had the guts to tell you a long time ago, don't be so hard on yourself. I
39:06I
39:09Think that I'm beginning to understand what it was like for you. Did you really tell everyone in Birragara?
39:17Well, I can imagine how that went down
39:20I'm guessing they're not putting on a gay pride parade for you anytime soon. No, you got that, right? I'm sorry
39:26It's not funny. No, it's okay. My parents actually pretty good about it. So my mates in fact
39:33Everyone was a lot better than I thought they'd be
39:36I just hated myself for what happened. I'm not really mess you around
39:41You just have to know that none of it was your fault
39:46Cody the most incredible person I've ever met if I was straight it'd be a whole different story. I
39:54Still love you, you know part of me always will
39:59Thank you for coming. I didn't realize how much it would help. I can't pretend it was my idea
40:06Coz a pretty good bloke
40:08He always he really cares about you
40:16Hi, hey, I
40:22Wanted to thank you. Oh, I'm not sure if that was the right thing to do. No, it was
40:27It helped a lot
40:30And at least now there's no unanswered questions I can finally move on
40:38So, uh, where does that leave us I
40:43Don't know
40:50I'm sorry
40:52About last night. I was being a coward
40:54I just I knew how you felt about the whole long-distance thing and you shouldn't have lied to me about it. I
41:02Know did I just told you?
41:08The admissions board have offered me a place congratulations you gonna accept
41:17Yeah, right
41:21Well, I guess that settles it then
41:24It's okay, I you know, I understand no you don't I
41:29Am completely on board with all of that
41:33I reckon it's time. We gave this a proper go
41:35I
41:50Pack your bags Fitzgerald. We're going camping. I've just raided the Kennedy's camping gear
41:56All you need is a change of clothes. Yeah, I want to be here in case Vanessa Patrick come back
42:01Just give her a call and tell her you're going away for a few days. Oh
42:04Come on
42:06Come on you need to get out
42:09You're starting radiation soon and take it from me
42:12I know how draining that can be so just think of this as a break before you have to do all that
42:17Come on, you know you want to
42:20Camping under the stars sinking beers as we watch a once-in-a-lifetime
42:26Astronomical wonder you're not gonna quit until I say yes. I I
42:30Just know how good it will be for you
42:34All right
42:38Okay
42:41All right toothpaste toothbrush and sanitizer
42:49He forgets loo paper Lucas
42:51Oh
43:08Hi
43:11What's going on yeah
43:15Lucas and I we're just gonna go away for a few days to watch the Eclipse
43:18Yeah, just for a couple of days, I didn't know when you guys be back
43:23Yeah, clearly you guys have got lots of to talk about so I'm gonna get going
43:31See you later
43:34I
43:42Come home and you're taking off with Steph. I wasn't taking off. It's okay, mate. It's okay
43:47Shh, yeah, give me I haven't seen him in days exhausted. He needs a sleep
43:52Oh
44:02What
44:05What was she doing here I
44:07Didn't know when you guys will be back. So it's okay for her to be in our home while I'm gone
44:12What I can't believe you were planning to go in it up. It was just a couple of days away with a mate a
44:19Mate a mate who used to be your girlfriend Oh hardly
44:24Okay, are you that naive?
44:27It's obvious what she's trying to do. She's trying to be a mate. She's totally manipulated you wasn't her idea
44:34This whole weekend away the way she tried to be a support system when you got diagnosed
44:39Yeah, because she's been through it before she was trying to protect you
44:41She was trying to shut me out so she could get closer to you and that whole bike thing
44:48She said that all love so we would fight
44:50And I suppose she's to blame for you lying about your ex-husband. I should have told you about him. I'm sorry
44:55Yes, you should have I hate this. I hate fighting like this. I
44:59Wanted to come back home and tell you all these things and then I see step
45:07What did you want to tell me
45:09That
45:14I love you, but I hated being away from you. I did too
45:23Look I know you think that you're some sort of
45:27Consolation prize, but you're wrong
45:29My marriage was a mistake. I was young I was naive
45:34You are it for me
45:39I
45:49You are the best person I know and everything we've been through just makes me love you more and more I
46:00Want to make this work so do I
46:05I
46:07Mean you have to cut Steph out of your life
46:12We're not gonna get through this with her constantly in our lives, it's not gonna work
46:24Hey, buddy, um, I
46:27Thought you were meant to go camping. I saw Steph at the storage. She was pretty pumped about it. Yeah, I'm not going anymore
46:34It's a good call
46:36What made you change your mind
46:41Vanessa's back. That's good news. Yeah. Yeah, it is obviously we've got stuff to work out, but she's here. So that's a start
46:52She wants me to cut ties with Steph completely she figures it's the only way to get our relationship back on track
47:01It's probably got a point mate
47:04I get that Steph maybe caused problems between me and Vanessa, but she's one of my oldest mates
47:10Yeah, mine too, but I learned the hard way. You can't let that loyalty come before the people who matter most to you
47:17You know the Steph thinks you're more than just friends I can't just write her off especially after everything she's been through
47:24You've got to do what's best for you and Vanessa. Don't worry about Steph. The rest of us can pick up the pieces
47:30How am I gonna tell her
47:33Just be clear with her be very clear
47:36She's pretty vulnerable at the moment. So, um, make sure she knows exactly where she stands
47:44Thanks
47:51Hey, I think I overdid it I've got enough food for a week
47:58Where's your stuff
48:02I can't go
48:04Why not?
48:05well
48:07Vanessa's only just back. I haven't seen Paddy in days. I'm really sorry
48:12But that's okay
48:13Well, don't we go next weekend then and Chris can look after the garage and I mean we'll miss the Eclipse
48:18But it's still time away
48:24It's not just that I can't see you anymore I
48:28Need to spend time with Patrick and Vanessa
48:33Can't you do both
48:36Vanessa and I have stuff to work through. I need to focus on her now. Oh, so this is all coming from her. No, no
48:45I've been spending too much time with you and it's not fair on Vanessa
48:50Well, what about me what am I supposed to do
48:54This is hard on me too, you know, it's partly my fault I got too close to you I shouldn't have
49:01Oh, so now you're just gonna shut me out. No, it's not like that. It's just till Vanessa and I are back on track
49:06I was I
49:09Was there for you and you needed me I know and I am grateful to you. What about me?
49:13What am I supposed to do? I don't have anyone else. That's not true. You've got Toadie and the Kennedy
49:18No, that's not the same. They care about you
49:22You're the only person I really trust Lucas. Don't don't do this
49:28I'm really sorry. No, you're not
49:32I mean you've chosen Vanessa and that's all you care about
49:36You just used me there just just go
49:53Miss you mate
49:54Where it comes?
49:56I've missed you. Did you behave in honor? Did you?
49:59Yeah, I bet she's supposed to say hello to Marco there's mark if she didn't spoil you
50:10Are you still upset about Steph?
50:13No, no, that'd be done
50:15for us and for
50:17She'll get over it. I
50:19Hope so. Hey, I've been thinking
50:22I'm gonna quit Harold's
50:25It'll it'll help make a complete break, you know separate our worlds a bit I'll do some catering and I'll bring in some money
50:40I'm like on tell her now actually
50:43Get away till morning
50:45No, no, I want to get it over and done
50:48Okay. Well, I'll come with you
50:50You meant to be staying away from her. I know I'm
50:54Just a bit worried about how she will react I can handle Steph
51:00I'll go now. Okay, you'll be good to daddy. Yeah, I see
51:13Knock
51:15Steph I
51:17just came by because I
51:20Wanted to tell you that I'm gonna have to step back from working here for a while I
51:24Just wanted to give you my notice. Okay, fine
51:30I'll finish out the week and I'm I'll tell Lauren and I know she was looking for more shifts. It's alright. I'll tell her
51:38Alright
51:40Vanessa I
51:42know
51:44You've got some issue with Lucas and I being such close friends and I also know that you're the one that's stopping him from seeing
51:51me
51:52It's not just my decision. Hey Lucas is on board with this as well. I think we both know that's not true
51:59You've had it in for me since I first arrived if that's what you want to believe. It's the truth
52:04Well, I'm sorry you see that way, but I would have said it was the other way around
52:08I
52:10Know you and Lucas were close, but that was a long time ago things have changed. He has a family where his priority
52:17You don't understand
52:20Lucas and I
52:22With like soulmates
52:25No one gets me the way he gets me and I don't know what I'm gonna do without him
52:38You
52:47Bon John no, si, si, si, si
52:55How'd it go
52:58Well, she blames me for everything I'm sorry
53:06I'm just
53:08Glad it's over
53:10She'll be okay
53:13Yeah
53:15Okay, what
53:18Maybe I'm overreacting but I was kind of glad to get out of there. She kind of freaked me out
53:24What did she say?
53:26She's just
53:28She's really edgy
53:31Oh
53:33We have to let this go okay, she's not our problem. We've made the right decision
53:38Yeah
53:40Yeah, you're right
53:42Hey, it's just the three of us now you me and Paddy
53:45Nothing else matters
