00:00Previously on Neighbours.
00:02There's a list here of everything that Aaron's done.
00:06Gone.
00:07Isla is so lucky to have you as a dad.
00:09Krista needs a little help with Paul.
00:11Not everyone wants to butt heads every minute of every day.
00:14She's not me.
00:15She certainly is not.
00:17You've assigned nearly every item this week to yourself.
00:20We're supposed to be collaborating.
00:22But we're actually not going in.
00:23But he's your brother.
00:24Every time we let Felix back into our lives, it backfires.
00:27Don't think I ever seen you here.
00:57I thought you hated me.
01:09This isn't about me, Felix.
01:12You were stabbed and I had to see how you are.
01:18I've had better days.
01:20And worse.
01:23Well, there's always a silver lining.
01:27Maybe this is a chance for you and Andrew to reconnect.
01:30Who was that?
01:33He loves you, Felix.
01:35Regardless of what happened in the past.
01:38And I had to come here to see if you're at least open to a visit.
01:45Of course I'd like to see him, but I'm out of chances.
01:49I've accepted that.
01:54You must have had time to do a lot of soul searching.
01:57Yeah.
02:13So what are we going to eat?
02:15Oh, I'm easy.
02:17Surprise me.
02:19Tough day?
02:20Just long.
02:22Endless meetings, most of which could have been emails.
02:27Oh, hi.
02:29Hey.
02:30Hey, are you here for dinner too?
02:32Um, no, I'm just grabbing some takeaway.
02:34Oh, actually, while I've got you here, a quick update on the fitness program.
02:39I should have an activity slate mapped out by first thing in the morning.
02:44Oh, I thought we were going to work on that all together.
02:47Oh, no, we will.
02:48I'm just getting a head start.
02:49Yeah, been a long day.
02:51Why don't you take a night off?
02:52Yeah.
02:53Project managing is not work for me.
02:54It's my happy place.
02:57Anyway, I'll leave you guys to it.
02:58We can reconvene tomorrow.
03:00OK.
03:06So what do you want for dinner?
03:07Um, you decide.
03:09I just want to see Tell Dad so I can watch him disagree with you.
03:12Phone.
03:14Oh, you're talking about me again.
03:16Well, you know what?
03:17I hope it's all good because I am actually here to apologize.
03:20I realize I may have overreacted before.
03:23And on reflection, I think Sadie would be good for the role.
03:27I know.
03:27That's why I hired her.
03:29Hmm.
03:29Yes, you do have good instincts.
03:33OK.
03:34Apology accepted.
03:37The thing is, Therese popped in and just reminded me that
03:41not everybody likes to go head-to-head the way she does.
03:45Therese popped in?
03:47Come on.
03:47Right after she was talking about how kind and generous he is.
03:51Which he can't find out about.
03:52OK? He'll get the wrong idea.
03:54No. What if it's the right idea?
03:56Look, she obviously wants to be around him.
03:58She just lost Toadie.
04:00She's just trying to feel better.
04:04OK. Fine.
04:05I'll see you tomorrow.
04:06OK.
04:07Bye.
04:07Bye.
04:08Bye.
04:08Bye.
04:09Bye.
04:09Bye.
04:10Bye.
04:10Bye.
04:11Bye.
04:11Bye.
04:12Bye.
04:12Bye.
04:13Bye.
04:13Bye.
04:20OK. Use this one to colour in.
04:21And that's the sky.
04:22Nice.
04:25I'm going to draw in the tree.
04:28Nick.
04:30Tell me to stay out of it, if you like.
04:33But I have not seen any of your usual post-breakup antics.
04:36No big nights out.
04:38No wardrobe purging.
04:39Carrie's not the usual breakup.
04:42Do you want to have a chat about it?
04:46Well, I found a pair of her socks in my cupboard this morning.
04:49And then I cried half an hour.
04:50So it might not be a good idea.
04:51Finish!
04:52Oh!
04:54See, Daisy.
04:55That's all right.
04:56We'll clean it up.
04:56Did that get on you?
04:57No? OK.
04:58Come on, Nick.
05:00That's...
05:00That had so many family photos with David in them.
05:04That's fine.
05:05That'll be in the cloud, right?
05:07Yeah. I don't do the upgrade, the storage.
05:10Really?
05:10It's very confusing.
05:12I mean, look.
05:13Oh, hey.
05:14Do you want me to have a look?
05:15I might be able to sort it out if it's...
05:17If anything got in.
05:19Oh, OK.
05:19Yeah, great.
05:20I mean, do whatever you have to do.
05:21Yeah, cool.
05:22I'll just take it to the back.
05:23Thanks, Haz.
05:23All good.
05:24Hey, it's OK.
05:25It was an accident.
05:26Oopsies.
05:27All good.
05:29Sorry, Mummy.
05:30It's OK.
05:30It's all right.
05:35Your dream wedding dress awaits, my lady.
05:39And I thought wine home delivery was a game changer.
05:42This is next level.
05:43Right?
05:44Dressing up in your own home, no hovering shop assistants.
05:47So which one are we going to try on first?
05:49The lacy boho, the long sleeve, the classic meringue?
05:55We could go left to right.
05:58OK.
05:59Well, don't get too excited, babe.
06:00You might pass out.
06:02Oh, no, no.
06:02I am excited.
06:04I'm really, really excited.
06:05You know, this is definitely the best option.
06:07And it's all I can afford.
06:09So all right.
06:10So they're not red carpet worthy.
06:12But don't worry.
06:13We'll zhoosh them up with, like, some accessories, some fancy heels.
06:16Definitely.
06:17Yeah.
06:17Definitely.
06:17It'll be great.
06:18OK, let's narrow down our top three before Sadie and Byron get back.
06:22My lady.
06:22My lady.
06:23Hot one right off the bat.
06:25This is, oh, that is short.
06:27Cheers, mate.
06:28Thanks.
06:30Hey, I was actually going to drop past your place to see how you're all doing.
06:34Yeah, we thought dinner would be a good distraction.
06:36It's been a big day.
06:38Um, I went to see him before.
06:42I didn't go in.
06:43I just, um, I don't know.
06:45I just chickened out.
06:47Hey, that's not weakness, mate.
06:49You listen to your instincts.
06:50They're protecting you.
06:52It's good that you did that.
06:55We're going to do the same thing.
06:56Wendy, Sadie and me.
06:57We're going to give him a wide berth.
07:01What?
07:05There's something you should probably know.
07:08I cannot believe you stepped into a brawl.
07:11I would have been out of there so fast.
07:14I just did what felt right in the moment.
07:17Well, it was really brave.
07:20Pretty stupid, but mostly brave.
07:29Just give me a minute.
07:38I'm going to see him.
07:39No, no, no.
07:40You said that.
07:45Look, you agreed.
07:48Look, I know how much you love your family.
07:50And if you're not going to take this chance to make things right...
07:54Wendy, brokering some sort of a reunion between me and my brother,
07:58it doesn't mean that you want to...
07:59No, no, no.
08:02I just didn't want you to have any regrets.
08:05I don't.
08:06Because I didn't do anything wrong.
08:09We both know that he's going to say all the right words.
08:11And he's going to say that he's changed.
08:13And we're going to believe him all the way up until he screws us again.
08:16Yeah, well, I thought that too.
08:19But I've spoken to him.
08:21And he's different.
08:28It's an act.
08:29No, he's in far too much pain to be putting on some act.
08:33What I saw in there, that was genuine.
08:38Now, you know, we can go home now.
08:40If that's what you want.
08:42You know, and I will support you.
08:47Or you can stay and you can talk to him.
08:51And I'll be here for you too.
08:52I mean, like, iconic.
09:00I mean, it is a step up from the shower, Luther.
09:07Okay, we're not feeling it.
09:10That's fine.
09:10We'll move on.
09:11I think that was the last one.
09:14Really?
09:16Oh, okay.
09:18Uh, what if we try, like, we'll try this one on again.
09:23But we can pair it with, like, a massive bouquet or diamonds.
09:30Look, these dresses are lovely.
09:35They're not the one.
09:38My last wedding dress set the bar pretty high.
09:40Oh, really?
09:40You mean the one that was custom made for you by a friend to
09:43fit your exact vibe and personality?
09:45You're joking.
09:46I just think I need to manage my expectations.
09:50That's so romantic.
09:55Well, what if we jumped back on the Express Dress website
09:59just one more time and raise the budget a little bit?
10:05Come on, we can all chip in.
10:06It'll be worth it.
10:08Okay, okay, let's do it.
10:10I am going to show you my dream dress.
10:14And yes, I mean, it is very much out of my budget.
10:17But, you know, we can dream.
10:18Manifest, baby.
10:19Yeah.
10:26To be clear, I don't expect anything from you.
10:29And I won't be reaching out to anyone either.
10:33If that's code for JJ, then I am glad.
10:39I care about JJ.
10:41Not only are you good for him.
10:42No.
10:44For anyone.
10:48It's good to see you.
10:53So what happened?
10:55Why'd you get caught up in this mess?
10:58A couple of clowns decided to kick off in the gym.
11:02It was a coordinated attack.
11:03Could have got yourself killed, mate.
11:06It was the right thing to do.
11:07Rest up, mate.
11:09It'll be good for your recovery.
11:11So they can send me back quicker.
11:22So?
11:25No, he's still Felix.
11:29But something's different.
11:31You did the right thing.
11:34I'm sorry.
11:35You did the right thing.
11:38Yeah, maybe.
11:40Definitely.
11:42I know you.
11:44I guess I am a bit of an open book.
11:48You are.
11:51And I want to do that for you too.
11:57Whatever I am learning about myself, I want to learn that with you.
12:02Team Rodwell.
12:05Me in your corner, you in mine.
12:08That's what I want.
12:16Dessert toasties are something we could make at home.
12:18No, no, no, no, no.
12:19It's the bread they use.
12:20It's that fancy brioche.
12:21Fancy brioche.
12:22It's not.
12:23Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
12:24Susan, what are you doing?
12:25Cut, cut.
12:25Susan.
12:26Hi.
12:26Hi.
12:27Hi.
12:27Hi.
12:28Busted.
12:28We just.
12:29Oh.
12:30Busted.
12:30We just fancied something sweet.
12:32Yeah.
12:33Well, no judgment.
12:33I'm about to do the same.
12:35Need a bit of sugar if I'm going to push it through the ice.
12:37Oh, yes.
12:37Well, good luck with that.
12:38Oh, hey.
12:39I don't need luck.
12:40I am on a roll.
12:41Now, listen.
12:42I have found the perfect third party fitness outfit.
12:44It's, it's local.
12:46It's a developed rehab.
12:47A few little tweaks and it'll be perfect.
12:48Wow.
12:49Can't wait to hear about that tomorrow.
12:50Yes.
12:51Oh, and the staff are all highly trained and there is a huge variety of activities.
12:55There's, there's like salsa dancing and there's the squash.
12:58Sounds like a winner.
13:00Oh, and there's a spin class.
13:01Wait for it.
13:03Wait for it.
13:03It's set to 60s music.
13:06Oh, wow.
13:07Perfect for you, Carl.
13:08You know, maybe it's time to up your lycra game.
13:13You know, show us your moves.
13:15I mean, you're a musician.
13:17So I'm sure you've got some natural rhythm in there somewhere.
13:23Hey.
13:25Reading this made me want to resign too.
13:27It's a beautiful read.
13:30Well, it was hard to write.
13:32Uh, which part?
13:33Jetting off to Paris with your paramour.
13:36New opportunities.
13:37French patisseries.
13:38Please just leave already.
13:40I can't believe how fast it's all happening.
13:44Well, you deserve this.
13:46You've earned it.
13:50Thank you, Toady.
13:52For everything.
13:54You have always had my back.
13:56Well, how can I not?
13:58This is because of your hard work and your talent.
14:02I'm so happy for you.
14:06Well, if it's any consolation,
14:08part of me wants to stay here forever.
14:11In my own little bubble.
14:13Yeah, I get that.
14:16But being offered a fresh start has made me realise how badly I need one.
14:21And has.
14:21He is so excited for his next steps.
14:28You know, every morning for the last week,
14:30you've charged through here at full throttle.
14:32I'm a busy woman, Paul.
14:33Oh, come on, take ten minutes out.
14:35Smell the trees, have a look at the birds,
14:37clear your head a bit.
14:38Then what? Meditate in the rotunda?
14:41You know, a wise woman once said to me,
14:43you're not going to be very good at your job if your job is all you do.
14:45Uh, probably because you're ignoring her in favour of work.
14:49Here.
14:51Ten minutes.
14:53Hmm.
14:54Okay, what's the prognosis?
14:56Uh, so I left it switched off all night.
14:58All the moisture's out.
14:59I'm just transferring everything to a hard drive now.
15:01Oh, and the photos?
15:02Yeah, the photos, call logs, voice memos, undeleted trash.
15:05It's all there.
15:06Oh, okay, amazing.
15:08You're a genius.
15:09Uh, you will need to get your phone serviced
15:11before we transfer everything back, though.
15:12Okay, I don't need a new phone.
15:14No.
15:15Okay, um, Aaron's just with Isla down by the lake.
15:18How long do you need to be back?
15:19I'll be back in a minute.
15:20Okay, I'll be back in a minute.
15:21Aaron's just with Isla down by the lake.
15:23How long do you need?
15:24Uh, about another half an hour.
15:26Go join them.
15:27Come back later.
15:28Seriously, thank you.
15:29I owe you one.
15:31I don't know what I would have done without my family photos.
15:43Then I have a video call, so back-to-back meetings all day.
15:47Wow.
15:48What?
15:49No, nothing.
15:50Well, I'd probably do the same thing, bury myself in work.
15:52Yeah, well, it's better than sitting around and moping.
15:55Hey, it wasn't a criticism.
15:57No, I think back-to-back meetings are an excellent form of pain reliever.
16:01Amen.
16:03Yeah, my prediction is any minute now,
16:06you're going to go from overwork mode
16:08to micromanaging everybody around you mode.
16:12You know what, I think Carl and Susan might say
16:14that that process is already well underway.
16:16Oh, really?
16:20Um.
16:29Okay, so new plan, we go vintage.
16:33Me in a gorgeous 50s rock and you in a powder blue tux.
16:37Suits me.
16:38Oh.
16:39Was that a bad pun?
16:40Do you want it to be?
16:41Oh, definitely.
16:45Break it up, break it up, break it up.
16:47That is a dress bag.
16:48Yeah, it is.
16:49Haz, close your eyes.
16:50Secret bridal business.
16:56Is that?
16:57Your dream dress.
16:59How?
17:00Magic.
17:01No, seriously, how?
17:02Like I said, manifest, baby.
17:04I can't afford this.
17:05You don't have to.
17:06It's a gift from me to you.
17:08No, no, no, no, no, it's too expensive.
17:10No, not after I haggled it down.
17:12I told them all about your crazy near-death gunshot experience.
17:15They practically gave it to me.
17:16I don't know how I feel about this.
17:17Feel good.
17:18Haz, open your eyes.
17:20They loved it.
17:20I mean, think about all the boring bridal brigades they usually have to deal with.
17:23Holly, it's too much.
17:25Mac, I want to do this for you.
17:28Please just let me.
17:33You are amazing.
17:34This is amazing.
17:35This whole wedding is going to be amazing.
17:37And I'll have a skinny latte double shot, please.
17:40Oh, bring out the big guns.
17:41Oh, it's either that or I make a run for it.
17:43Oh.
17:45Oh, I'm sorry.
17:46Now, that was a terrible thing to say.
17:48I know how much Therese is hurting and I've just got to be patient with her.
17:52Yeah, hopefully she had a good night's sleep.
17:54Hope springs eternal.
17:56Morning.
17:57Oh, hello.
17:58Hi.
17:59Good night's sleep?
18:01No, not really.
18:02But listen, I've just had an epiphany.
18:05Huh?
18:05Right, back to the drawing board with the fitness plans?
18:08No, no, no, no, not about that.
18:10About me and what a nightmare I've been.
18:13Oh, don't say that.
18:16No, no, no, I have, I have.
18:17I've been micromanaging again and I'm constantly in work mode.
18:21And then I've costed the two of you last night when you're trying to take your dessert home.
18:25I mean, that's practically sacrilege.
18:28You've been going through a lot.
18:30Oh, I've been making my heart break.
18:32Everyone else's problem, but not anymore.
18:34Well, whatever helped you bounce back?
18:36I'm glad you found it.
18:37Oh, actually, no, it found me.
18:39In pool.
18:40We went for a walk and we talked it all out.
18:43And it actually seems he knows me better than I think I know myself.
18:48Hmm.
18:49Anyway, enjoy your coffees.
18:50Maybe afterwards we could sit down and talk about the new activities as a team.
18:58First flowers, now long walks.
19:07Given the success of the surgery,
19:09Felix will be transferred back to the prison hospital in no time.
19:13Did you talk to him?
19:14Yeah, I did.
19:15Sorry, mate, one sec.
19:18Work.
19:22Everything all right?
19:23It's the warden's report from the incident at the jail.
19:26Felix comes off as quite the hero.
19:29Oh, well, he did stop another prisoner getting stabbed.
19:33Guards, too, according to this.
19:36He never mentioned that.
19:39What?
19:42Nice to have someone else to talk to.
19:45I hate being alone with my own thoughts.
19:48He'll never guess who paid me a visit.
19:51Hey, warden, apparently I'm being considered for early release.
19:55Nice for some.
19:58Probably won't happen, though.
20:01Still, it feels good to be appreciated for doing the right thing.
20:05Couldn't stand back while people got hurt.
20:08Well, I'm glad you didn't.
20:11If you hadn't stepped in when you did,
20:13I wouldn't be sitting here dreaming about all the stuff I get to do when I finally get out.
20:21Take it easy.
20:43What? Holly paid for it?
20:46Yes, but she promised me that she got a bargain.
20:48Okay.
20:50Hey.
20:52Oh, wow, that is spooky.
20:54I was just thinking about you, about what you said the other day.
20:58About fresh starts.
21:01Oh, yeah?
21:02Yeah.
21:03It's interesting, isn't it?
21:05Thinking about what kind of person you could be.
21:08Away from all of your history.
21:10You're not thinking of leaving, are you?
21:13You sound a bit excited by that.
21:16If that's your way of retracting my wedding invitation,
21:18it's too late because I've already bought you a present.
21:23Not exactly a no, is it?
21:32Oh, hey, mate. I'm almost done here.
21:34No, that's all right.
21:35I've been sent in by Isla for another one of your special green juices.
21:40Okay, one apple and melon smoothie coming right up.
21:42That's the one.
21:43Hey, would you mind keeping an eye on this?
21:45Sure.
21:45I've just got a malware scan running,
21:47just to make sure we're not transferring over anything dodgy.
21:49Okay.
21:50And if a threat detection thing pops up, just give me a yell, yeah?
21:54Yeah, will do.
22:09So, where's our juices, dada?
22:26We are getting very thirsty.
22:31Uh, did something go wrong with the transfer?
22:35No, it didn't.
22:36It's all here.
22:38Every little detail.
22:47Coming up on Neighbours.
22:49You okay, mate?
22:50Just feels like everything's about to change.
22:54Hope you're not making a move on Therese, mate.
22:58Why would you do such a thing?
22:59I don't know.
23:01How am I supposed to co-parent with someone I will never trust again?
