00:00You up for a quick chat?
00:11Just wanted to know if you need to talk to someone in here.
00:13I don't know what to do about Salt.
00:15So I feel like I owe it to Felicity to stay on and look after the place for her.
00:18But I've made Eden so upset that she's quit.
00:20Salt.
00:21It's a great restaurant.
00:22At the end of the day, it's just bricks and mortar.
00:27I'm not going to be at Salt anymore.
00:28I'm going to step back, just be a silent partner.
00:32Is this really what you want?
00:34Yes.
00:35You're the mechanic who fixed my car.
00:40How long have you had this job?
00:41A couple months.
00:42A couple of months?
00:43Wow.
00:44The circus just keeps getting better and better.
00:46Okay, I don't think you can speak to him like that.
00:48He did say that he was sorry.
00:49I'll take care of all the mechanical work.
00:52The garage is going to take on all the expenses.
00:55I just don't know what I'm going to do in the meantime until I work out who's going
00:59to drive me around.
01:00I'll do it.
01:01What?
01:02I'll be your driver.
01:04I can't wait for her car to be fixed and for her to be out of our lives.
01:07Yeah, definitely.
01:08This is an amazing opportunity.
01:09You're going to say yes, right?
01:10Wrong.
01:11Why not?
01:12I entered that competition to share my art, not to be represented by some big shot gallery
01:24owner.
01:25Most artists would dream of that, Marley.
01:28I'm not an artist.
01:29Well, I'm pretty sure you have a certificate on the wall that says otherwise.
01:32I've only done one painting.
01:33Then get to it and make some more.
01:35That's what I had to do when I had my music deal.
01:37It doesn't work like that for me.
01:39I'll call the guy back and say thanks, but no thanks.
01:42No, no.
01:43You at least have to meet with the guy.
01:45It's a waste of time.
01:46Oh.
01:47Hey, Cash, you in there?
01:48Yeah, John, coming in.
01:49I know, I promised.
01:50I'll stop at the food drops, but Marilyn insisted.
02:00Got your mail, too.
02:03Thank you, John.
02:05My pleasure.
02:06So, any more thoughts on salt?
02:10I'm taking your advice, actually.
02:12I'm going to step back.
02:14How's that feel?
02:15It's a relief that Eden doesn't have to change her job.
02:19Well, if you'd look on the bright side, you'd still be business partners with Mackenzie
02:23with none of the hard work.
02:25Sounds like money for nothing to me.
02:31What's wrong?
02:35Ultimate gift.
02:37It's the people who organised the organ donation.
02:40One of the recipients has reached out.
02:43They've written me a letter.
02:49I just wish there was more I could do for Tane.
02:51He was so angry on the phone.
02:53Well, there's no point taking it out on you.
02:55I get why he's worried.
02:57And of course, Perry's father has denied everything.
03:00We've been very clear with him.
03:02He needs to stay away from Perry.
03:04Or you think he'll listen?
03:06I can keep an eye on him, but this court case can't come soon enough.
03:09Rose, I know you're frustrated, but you're doing the best you can.
03:14Hey.
03:15Hey.
03:16Just the usual, thanks.
03:18Coming right up.
03:22Hmm.
03:23Used to date Molly.
03:25And you used to date his brother.
03:27What, you want to exchange bad romance stories?
03:29You're very funny, Rose, but no.
03:32I was actually wondering.
03:35How did you get him to do something that he didn't want to do?
03:38Why?
03:39Well, some gallery owner wants to represent him as an artist.
03:42Which is amazing, but he doesn't even want to meet up to talk about it.
03:45What's his problem?
03:46I don't know. Lack of confidence, maybe?
03:48Are we talking about the same Molly Hudson?
03:50Well, something's holding him back.
03:53And I mean, I can't seem to get through to him.
03:57Oh.
04:04Having fun there?
04:07It's not from the art competition.
04:09Okay, we got it framed.
04:12Well, sending to the family group chat.
04:14Hmm. Mum wants to see it.
04:16I'm not surprised.
04:18She'll probably tell me not to get a swollen head about it.
04:22You should tell her that a big-time gallery owner wants to represent you.
04:25Kirby told you?
04:27Yeah. Congratulations.
04:29Thanks.
04:31You know, you should seriously think about it.
04:33Offers like that don't come along every day.
04:35It's not an offer. He just wants to meet up and have a chat.
04:37It could be the start of something big.
04:39See? Everyone agrees.
04:40Yeah.
04:41Not everyone.
04:43Why are you doing this?
04:45I'm not doing anything.
04:46Yeah?
04:47Then you can close up.
04:49I'm going home.
04:57Oh, hey.
04:58Usual to go?
04:59Just the one coffee today.
05:01Justin not at the garage?
05:03He was.
05:04And then he took off.
05:06Who to?
05:07Who knows? He's been in and out for days.
05:09Like he can't stand spending more than a few hours with me.
05:12That is not true.
05:14I know he's been run up his feet.
05:17I think he's still mad at me.
05:19What for?
05:20Claudio's accident.
05:22What else could it be?
05:23If anything, he should be mad at her for being so rude to you.
05:27Anyway, the whole thing has been dealt with.
05:29You sure?
05:31Of course I'm sure.
05:32Justin would have told me if he still had a problem.
05:40You took your time.
05:43Would have been quicker if I didn't have to pick you up in the middle of nowhere.
05:46Felt like a walk. My place is just over there.
05:48No.
05:49For the last time, I am not a taxi.
05:51You can ride up front.
05:53Oh, and I'll just spread out all my paperwork on the dashboard, will I?
05:55Seems like a safety hazard.
05:59Come on, let's go.
06:04What is it you do exactly?
06:06I do home assessments for veterans.
06:09Oh. Right.
06:12You sound surprised.
06:14No, it's just a job that I thought would require a little bit more...
06:19Patience? Kindness?
06:21Yeah.
06:24Well, as you can imagine, the work can be quite challenging,
06:26so I put up a wall to protect myself.
06:29It can make me seem cold.
06:31Just ask my husband.
06:33A mate of mine's son came back from Afghanistan
06:37a paraplegic.
06:39He had a rough time adjusting.
06:42I can imagine.
06:44Even without the physical difficulties,
06:46the PTSD some veterans face can be challenging.
06:52Like with my client today, he's been struggling,
06:55so we'll sit down together and talk,
06:57and I'll try and work out what kind of help he needs.
07:01Now do you see why I need your help?
07:06When I made the decision to donate Felicity's organs,
07:09I remember reading something at the hospital about correspondence,
07:13but I didn't think that it would be this soon.
07:17Well, can I ask what's the cover letter say?
07:21It says that Felicity's organs were successfully transferred
07:25to five separate recipients.
07:28Mate, that's enormous.
07:30Yeah.
07:31Five people got to live because of her.
07:36Can I open it?
07:37Yeah, just open it.
07:42I wasn't expecting it.
07:46Oh, there's no hurry.
07:48I wasn't expecting it.
07:52Oh, there's no hurry.
08:04I don't think you tried hard enough with Marley.
08:06So now this is my fault?
08:07What exactly did he say to you before I got there?
08:09Nothing specific,
08:11but I think you're onto something about the whole low self-esteem thing.
08:14Yeah?
08:15I don't think he's going to change his mind.
08:17Well, if you just talk to him again.
08:19I'm sorry, curbs, I tried, I failed, and I'm out.
08:21Rose, Rose, I just think that...
08:23I have things to do. Good luck.
08:25Really? I'm the only one that cares about this.
08:27Why don't you just leave the poor bloke alone?
08:29What?
08:30I mean, he told you he's not interested in doing this.
08:32What if this is exactly what he's meant to be doing with his life?
08:35But if he doesn't give it a chance, he'll never know.
08:39That's actually a pretty good point.
08:41Exactly.
08:43Which is why I'm not going to give up.
08:48It says here you're under no obligation to read the letter.
08:51You can even send it back.
08:55But also, it could be healing.
09:08You want me to go?
09:09No.
09:11No, you stay. That'd be good.
09:14No, you stay. That'd be good.
09:34Dear donor family.
09:38Words can never express how grateful I am to you and your loved one.
09:44I have struggled with a heart defect for most of my life.
09:47Without a heart and lung transplant, I could have died at any moment.
09:53But thanks to your generosity and compassion, I now...
10:05I now have the chance to live.
10:08To travel.
10:09Go to uni.
10:11And maybe even be a mum one day.
10:18None of this would have been possible without the generosity of your loved one.
10:25Although I've been blessed with life,
10:29I'm filled with sadness that someone you loved lost theirs.
10:35Please remember that they saved me.
10:37Part of them will be with me always.
10:41And for this gift, I will be forever grateful.
10:46Thanks to them, and to you,
10:50I am free.
11:01How'd it go with the client?
11:04Uh, good.
11:05This guy's been a tough nut to crack, but I think we really made some progress.
11:09I know how it feels.
11:11I'll just keep driving.
11:15Your place, right?
11:17Actually, I feel like a coffee.
11:19Can you take me to Yabby Creek?
11:21Uh, I gotta get back.
11:28You gonna get that?
11:30Uh, yeah, yeah, it's just my husband.
11:33Hey Eric, what's up?
11:36Yeah, look, I'm just in the middle of work, so can I...
11:41Well, somebody has to pay the bills, and I did say that...
11:46I told you a thousand times, I can work.
11:49No, driving is the problem.
11:52No, just hang on.
11:54Uh, Justin, can you pull over just for a sec?
11:57Yeah.
12:03No, just hang on.
12:06No.
12:11Hey.
12:12What?
12:13That's none of your business. I've got it sorted.
12:17Can we talk about this when I get home, please?
12:23Good to know her death helped other people.
12:26I think I'd like to talk to this woman.
12:29Find out more about her, tell her about Felicity.
12:31No, I don't think they're gonna let you do that, mate.
12:36What are you looking for?
12:37Well, they gave me some pamphlets on it at the hospital,
12:39but I never actually ended up reading them.
12:42Well, correspondence has to be anonymous.
12:44You can't meet her face to face.
12:46Why's that? She reached out to me.
12:48But it says here, you can write a letter,
12:50you can write a hundred letters and they'll pass them all.
12:52That doesn't feel like enough.
12:54Yeah, I know, but it's the best you're gonna do.
12:56Well, I don't understand that.
13:01Ready to get going?
13:02Uh, yeah, in a minute.
13:04Anyone who'd think you didn't want to go home?
13:08Why would you say that?
13:11I know when someone's in avoidance mode.
13:15Is something going on at home that's bothering you?
13:19What are you implying?
13:21Is your husband...
13:24Is he a problem?
13:27My husband?
13:29No.
13:31No.
13:32At least, not in the way that you mean.
13:36Oh, so what's the deal?
13:40It hasn't been easy with my arm like this.
13:43For either of us.
13:45Eric's had to take on a lot more work at home,
13:48which he hates.
13:51And he, uh...
13:55Hey, it's okay.
13:57I can keep it secret.
14:01He lost his job a while ago.
14:04And he's been leaning on me.
14:07A lot.
14:09And it's exhausting.
14:12Especially after days like this.
14:16Why didn't you tell him that I was driving you around?
14:19Well, because the last time you dropped me off, you gave me the third degree.
14:23Ah, is that why you wanted me to pick you up in the middle of nowhere?
14:27I didn't have the energy to go through it again.
14:31He's just so...
14:33clingy.
14:35And sometimes I need a break.
14:40Does that make me a bad person?
14:42No.
14:45I don't think so.
14:49Everyone argues.
14:50Everyone needs some space now and then, you know?
14:54I think it's totally normal.
14:56Thanks.
15:00We should get going.
15:02Yeah.
15:07Uh, Justin.
15:10Bye.
15:24Come in.
15:27Hello.
15:29Got a sec?
15:31You better be here about literally anything but the gallery guy.
15:35Hate to disappoint.
15:37You are like a dog with a bone.
15:39Yeah.
15:40Because I know how rare chances like this are.
15:43What if this guy's expecting to meet a real artist?
15:48I'm just some guy that runs a board shop.
15:52Anyone who can paint like that, Marley, is a real artist.
15:57What if I can't do anything like that again?
15:59Of course you can.
16:04Maybe.
16:06I don't know.
16:09You know that painting came from a bad time.
16:14I don't know if I want to go back there.
16:17Art can come out of real joy too.
16:21It's just one conversation.
16:23You're not signing away your soul.
16:32Right-o.
16:33Next up, the patrol rosters.
16:35I take it Dana's still happy to work with you?
16:40You still with us, Palmer?
16:43Sorry, mate.
16:45Look, I'm worried about Cash.
16:48I paid him a visit this morning and he's got a lot on his mind.
16:52Well, I'm sure Eden will sort him out.
16:54I doubt it.
16:55They broke up.
16:57That's true.
17:01Hey!
17:02Where have you been? I thought you'd be hours ago.
17:05I just had a lot on.
17:07Sorry about today.
17:08How'd you go? Did you get everything done?
17:10Yeah, a fair bit's come in.
17:11And tomorrow is my day off, so you'll be on your own.
17:14Yeah, okay. I'm good with that.
17:17Okay.
17:18I might call Perry and let him know I'm good to hang out then.
17:22So, what exactly have you been up to today?
17:25I got called out to a breakdown and then had to deal with some suppliers.
17:29It was endless.
17:30Do you really need to change suppliers?
17:31If only it was that easy.
17:33Poor thing.
17:34Well, zip down. I'll make you some dinner.
17:35Okay.
17:37Hey fellas.
17:38Hey mate.
17:48Yeah, I'm looking forward to it too.
17:52Right.
17:55Well, how'd it go?
17:57It was fine.
17:58When's the meeting?
17:59Next week.
18:00This is so exciting!
18:02We're just having a chat.
18:04Well, that's how it starts.
18:05We'll see.
18:08Just don't agree to anything until you've had a good look over the contract.
18:12With a lawyer.
18:14No one's said anything about contracts yet.
18:16They will.
18:17Oh, and don't forget, first offer, just a starting point.
18:22And you might want to shop yourself around just in case you can get a better deal with someone.
18:26Are you sure you don't want to represent me?
18:27Okay, yes, I will chill out.
18:31But I'm always here if you need any advice.
18:35Want it or not.
18:38I'm kidding.
18:41But hey,
18:44thanks for giving me a push.
19:07I love you.
19:38Dear recipient,
19:43thank you for your beautiful letter.
19:47It means a lot to hear from you.
19:59I hope Theo is having a relaxing time.
20:02I'm sure he is.
20:04I hope Theo is having a relaxing morning.
20:07He's been a bit anxious the last few days.
20:10Really?
20:11You haven't noticed?
20:12Oh, we haven't really crossed paths much this week.
20:15Yeah, about that, he thinks you're avoiding him.
20:18What? No, I'm not.
20:19That's what I said.
20:22I've got to get this, it might be work.
20:24Problem?
20:26Maybe.
20:28It's just one of the suppliers.
20:34Hey.
20:37Today?
20:39Look, I would love to help you out, okay, but I've got a business to run.
20:44You were supposed to notify me of your appointments, that was the deal.
20:55Send me the details, I'll be there.
21:04How are things looking?
21:06Nothing has changed since you asked me an hour ago.
21:08What are you doing?
21:09Just checking the trolley.
21:10Which you know has already been checked.
21:16I'm going to need you to sit down, please, so Dr Cameron can address that wound.
21:19Alright, Brie, do you want me to book a CT?
21:22Dr Cameron, are you booking the CT or not?
21:24Dr Cameron?
21:25I'm here if you need to talk.
21:27I don't.
