Transcript
00:00Previously on Shortland Street
00:02I'm starting to think that you are ashamed of me
00:04Because you're not Pakistani, you're not Muslim
00:06That's the unsaid expectation
00:08Don't me and Baba
00:10One day you'll have to tell them about your girlfriend
00:12You know what will happen then
00:14How can you give us up so easily when we love you so much
00:16It's not just the cold though, is it?
00:18No, try not to worry, okay? We're gonna get to the bottom of this
00:20Have you been on any farms recently?
00:22Near any animals?
00:24No
00:26Maria? Maria?
00:28Maria?
00:36Come on, Maria
00:40Hands are on
00:42Alright, clear
00:46Oh, thank you, Lord
00:48Okay, I'll look after the baby
00:50Thank you, Madonna
00:52What caused her to arrest?
00:54I wish I knew
00:56Hey
01:02What are you doing out here?
01:06Trying to get sleepy
01:08I want to work out here, come to bed
01:10Did you have a good chat
01:12with Sahad?
01:14Yeah
01:16So you guys are all good now?
01:18No problems
01:20Confession
01:22I heard you, I didn't
01:24mean to listen, and I didn't really
01:26understand everything
01:28We were just tashing over some old stuff
01:30Why?
01:32My dad
01:36He's very strict on
01:38Zahid because he's the eldest
01:40Zahid's never been able to let that go
01:42Everything he sees is
01:44through that lens
01:46So he had nothing to do with me?
01:50You
01:52I'm not the problem
01:54You never were, never will be
02:06Home time?
02:08I need to get a diagnosis
02:10I did just visit Maria in HDO
02:12How's she doing now?
02:14She still has a high fever, so we stay quiet, but she is stable
02:16Until she has another cardiac arrest
02:18They're monitoring her around the clock
02:22You know you can do this research at home
02:24What is taking the lab so damn long with these tests?
02:26They know it's urgent
02:28and they are on to it, but getting frustrated won't speed things up
02:32What if we're not on the right track?
02:34It has to be an infection
02:36and this baby's life is at risk, babe
02:38We're all worried, okay?
02:40But let's go home and we can work on it together
02:42And what if they don't make it through the night?
02:52Have you forgiven me
02:54for taking Cassie to Louisa's seminar?
02:56You do know that she was speaking directly
02:58to Cassie, right?
03:00It's like there was no one else in the room
03:02Yes, I saw that
03:04But at least she was speaking from the heart
03:06She's come a long way
03:08Yeah, well maybe I can accept that
03:10as long as she stays the way I am
03:12Louisa!
03:14Hi, Nicole
03:16What are you doing back here?
03:18Well, the feedback's been so good since yesterday
03:20that they've asked me if I want to start training
03:22as an on-call support person for women
03:24Well, you did speak really well
03:26Thank you
03:28That means a lot
03:30Um, what did Cassie think?
03:32Well, I guess you'll be asking her yourself
03:34when you're ambushing her
03:36in the cafe
03:38I don't want to ambush anyone
03:40Good
03:42I'll try to keep my distance then
03:44Did you have to do that?
03:46Yeah
03:48I'm protecting Cassie
03:50I'm protecting her too, but you heard her yesterday
03:52We can't demonise the woman
03:54Honestly, Nic, I'm a bit freaked
03:56by how quickly you've forgiven her
03:58You've been there yourself
04:00in your own way
04:02and you were out of your mind when we lost Wilder
04:04and holding a grudge
04:06isn't healthy for any of us
04:08She's broken our trust
04:10time and time again
04:12I know, but I feel like she's turned a corner
04:14How about live and let live?
04:18Alright, don't be scared
04:20Mrs Bradley, we're going to take good care of you
04:22Mrs Bradley, I thought you were heading home
04:24No, no, no
04:26She's found herself a new boyfriend
04:28Oh, don't tell my girlfriend
04:30Her name's Phil, so pretty
04:32Oh, that's right, I forgot he's a man in love now
04:34Maybe I am
04:36How many times do I have to tell you?
04:38It's a hassle, steer clear
04:40Have you said the L word already?
04:42No. What do you reckon Harper?
04:44I am sticking out of this one
04:46Oh, why? I wouldn't mind your opinion
04:48Um, okay
04:50Are you and Phil in?
04:52I'm sorry Mrs Bradley, let me sort that out for you
04:54Select sutures
04:56I'll give you ten out of ten
04:58Thanks
05:00But I'd give you zero for your TIA
05:02What TIA?
05:04Exactly
05:06Mrs Bradley
05:08I don't want to be a pain like you diagnosed
05:10Okay, I'll be there in one second
05:12I've dealt with it
05:14No, I need to own that, that's my mistake
05:16It's an easy thing to miss, especially if you're under pressure
05:18And that mysterious caller rocked you, not in a good way
05:20Why are you letting me off?
05:22I caught it
05:24You should be blasting me, hauling me in front of Esther and Harper
05:26The patient's being monitored, I've given clopidogrel
05:28She could have gone home and died Emmett
05:30But she didn't
05:32And I'm going to cover your shifts this weekend
05:34You're benching me?
05:36Get out of town, have some fun
05:38Knit yourself a jersey, whatever you do for fun
05:40Reprimand me, correct me
05:42But don't you dare give me time
05:48Hi
05:50Hi
05:52Where's Nazar?
05:54Ah, he's running really late
05:56Okay
05:58It's okay, I organised it that way so me and you, we could chat
06:00I don't understand
06:02I know your parents, they're never going to accept me
06:04It's okay
06:06It's okay, just help me understand
06:08Educate me
06:10You really want to know?
06:12Hit me
06:14Okay
06:16Number one, family is everything
06:18I understand that
06:20No, you don't
06:22It's about honour
06:24I know that sounds old fashioned
06:26And it is
06:28But we have to do the right thing
06:30It's in our DNA, you can't just take it out
06:32So my love for Naz
06:34That doesn't count for anything
06:36It's not about just you and Naz
06:38It's about the whole family
06:40Consensus, this is right for everyone
06:42It's me isn't it?
06:44They're not going to like my personality and you know it
06:46It's not about liking you Monique
06:48It's about girlfriend
06:50Sorry
06:52See in our family there's no such thing as girlfriend or boyfriend
06:54Either you're in
06:56As a daughter or a daughter-in-law
06:58Or you're out
07:00Okay
07:02Okay
07:04So what can I do then?
07:06What is my leverage? How can I negotiate?
07:08This will take time Monique
07:10Lots of time
07:12Got it
07:14Don't pressure Naz to meet our parents
07:16Okay
07:18Don't even talk about our parents
07:20Okay
07:22Understand that they're more treasured than you can ever imagine
07:26I'm sorry
07:28You must be the same though right?
07:30You must love your parents just as much?
07:32Not really
07:34What?
07:36I mean I would say there's like a strong
07:3830% of love there but
07:40I guess
07:42I guess that's the culture clash
07:44I don't really
07:46I don't really know what family means
07:48Oh
07:50I'm sorry
07:52No
07:54This is exactly what I need to hear
07:56Yeah
07:58The truth
08:00So what else?
08:04Hey why don't we eat dinner after work tonight?
08:06Somewhere nice
08:08We went out last night
08:10Sorry Nana Whitley didn't realise you needed a cup of tea on a lie down
08:12Do not call me Nana
08:14Come on Harper don't be boring
08:16Don't miss me too much
08:18Sorry
08:20What for?
08:22Poking my nose in
08:24Yeah
08:26I just wanted to say I really like Millie
08:28For you I think you guys are great together
08:30Did it hurt to say that?
08:32Nah just maybe a little bit
08:40Okay say goodbye New Zealand
08:42Goodbye New Zealand
08:44Okay
08:46Okay do we have time?
08:48Yeah sure
08:50What's going on?
08:52I just wanted to ask you before you got here
08:54Are you okay?
08:56Yes yeah no
08:58I just have a better understanding of it all
09:00And I'm not taking it personally
09:02Taking what personally?
09:04That I will never be accepted by your parents
09:06Zahid
09:08That's okay don't tell him off it's the truth
09:10He knows it we all know it
09:12Let's do this later okay
09:14No no no I want him here as my witness
09:16Who's carrying me?
09:18He's your family he should know
09:20What?
09:22One day you might have to make a choice
09:24But there is no choice
09:28Your army and Baba they come first
09:30And I don't ever want you to give them up for me
09:32Okay?
09:34Alright
09:36You have a good flight
09:38It was actually so nice to meet you
09:40You too Millie
09:42Okay
09:48I can buy you some time
09:52I'll tell Ammi
09:54When I'm ready
09:56But you'll have to be in the room and Gigi as well
09:58Then all of us together will convince Baba
10:00That's a good plan
10:02But without a marriage
10:04There's no point in this plan
10:06Yeah I know
10:08Are you ready for that?
10:12Okay
10:14Take care of yourself
10:16Golden boy
10:22Goodbye
10:24Goodbye
10:28I need to give you a heads up
10:30Luisa is back in the hospital
10:32As a support person in training
10:34Oh
10:36Yeah everyone was really impressed
10:38With what she said yesterday
10:40It was hard not to be
10:42I felt sad for her
10:44Okay well I've asked her not to hassle you
10:46While she's here
10:48Keep her distance
10:50Thanks
10:52But I think I'm over the shock of seeing her now
10:54I'm not sure I am
10:56But Nick thinks I should be a bit more forgiving
11:00It reminded me that I've had my fair share of mental health
11:02Struggles too
11:04Like when Wilder died
11:06And the cops arrested me
11:08But they realised
11:10They were wrong and let you go right?
11:12Didn't stop me losing my mind
11:14Though
11:18We've never really talked about this Cassie
11:20But
11:24I tried to take my own life
11:28Maeve I didn't know
11:30It was before I knew you were pregnant
11:32I was in hell
11:34I didn't care what happened to me
11:36What it might do to Nick
11:38How did you
11:40Get better?
11:42Was it just thinking about your grandchild?
11:44That was a big part of it
11:46Yep
11:48And um
11:50You know other people in my life
11:52Giving me permission to forgive myself
11:54That's hard
11:56I know
11:58So yeah
12:00I still don't want Louisa around
12:02I don't think it's healthy
12:04Nick might be right
12:06I could try to be more tolerant
12:08At work anyway
12:10Okay
12:12I have to go
12:14Can you just keep your guard up
12:16Okay
12:18Okay
12:26I feel awful
12:28I know
12:30I'm scared
12:58And
13:28I
13:30I
13:32I
13:34I
13:36I
13:38I
13:40I
13:42I
13:44I
13:46I
13:48I
13:50I
13:52I
13:54I
13:56I'm just so grateful
13:58For this opportunity you know
14:00I really have a chance to help others
14:02And to see Knox again
14:04I won't
14:06Deny I thought about that
14:08But I get why you're weary
14:10You know
14:12It's all part of being a protective mum
14:14Good because
14:16I still can't let you be around him
14:18I understand
14:20We're not judging you Louisa
14:22We're just being careful
14:24You're a lucky little boy
14:26To have two loving grandmothers like you and Maeve
14:28And then such an awesome mum
14:30I am not an awesome mum
14:32I think you are
14:34Well I have been giving Nick
14:36A hard time for one thing
14:38We don't need to get into all of that
14:40I am sorry though
14:42For playing up
14:44It's not very mature
14:46I'm sorry too
14:48For overreacting but we'll be alright
14:50I think as long as we keep communicating
14:52Yeah I hope so
14:54Well that's what families for
14:56Love can get you through anything
14:58It's true
15:16Gia go home
15:18Don't tell me what to do
15:20Mrs Bradley is stable now
15:22I know
15:26Look you made one mistake
15:28You got caught
15:30So why are you still beating yourself up?
15:32I'm not
15:34You are and we both know why
15:36It's because of your mystery caller
15:38I don't want to talk about it
15:40Who are they?
15:42You know I had a girlfriend
15:44Once who couldn't stop calling me
15:46We could say stalker
15:48Money? No
15:50Unfinished business?
15:52It's not my business Emmett
15:54The old me is dead and buried
15:56Harsh
15:58That's what my mum told everyone
16:00Dead, dead, dead
16:02I didn't realise it was so
16:04A nightmare
16:06So no talking to anyone from that part of your life
16:08Nope
16:10Even if they just want to say hi
16:12Hope you are doing ok
16:14I can't
16:16Maybe she just needs a friend
16:18Maybe you miss her
16:20I don't miss anyone
16:22Life is easier that way
16:26Room 6 needs to be assessed by a cardiologist
16:28And room 3 needs to be discharged
16:30If you agree
16:32Easier with the walls up
16:34I know that one
16:36Please
16:38Don't ask me anything else
16:42I'll follow up on room 3 and 6
16:46Ok
16:52Martia
16:54What is it?
16:56We have a diagnosis
16:58You and Tickahatu both have antibodies in your blood
17:00For Psittacosis
17:02What is it?
17:04It's also known as parrot fever
17:06Your aunties birds were the clue we needed
17:08Oh my god you're joking
17:10Well it is very rare but it's treatable
17:12So we're starting you both on different antibiotics
17:14Thank you so much Martia you're amazing
17:16Just doing my job
17:18No way more than that way more
17:20Nick
17:22We would have been dead if it wasn't for you
17:26Billy is my friend
17:28And he has been through so much gross stuff
17:30That creep haunting his memories
17:32Yeah I know all that
17:34Why the interrogation?
17:36You guys are going out for dinner tonight yeah?
17:38So?
17:40It's going to be special so just dress nice
17:42Nothing?
17:44People tell me their secrets because they trust me to keep my mouth shut
17:46Secrets are no good
17:48Really?
17:50Because I'm keeping one of yours
17:52Yeah I know
17:54And I do not like it for many reasons
17:56He doesn't need to know
17:58Fine but before you go for dinner tonight
18:00You better think long and hard about what love really means
18:02Because it's not dirty and it's not cheap
18:04And it's not sneaking around
18:06And everyone should be on the same page
18:08Hello
18:10What's that about?
18:12She knows
18:34About this afternoon
18:36What about it?
18:38What about it?
18:40You could have joined us you know
18:42No actually I couldn't Nick
18:44It's just too much for me
18:46No matter how much progress Louise has made
18:48Boundaries are important
18:50Of course they are
18:52But clearing the air has been really helpful for Cassie
18:54Maybe
18:56And we're actually talking to each other again
18:58We're not jumping down each other's throats
19:00That's something
19:02Yeah silver linings I suppose
19:04It's better than you talking to strangers on the internet
19:08Forgiveness is good for the soul
19:10Okay thank you Leanne
19:16So I was thinking
19:18You should go get on a plane and see your parents
19:20Give them a hug
19:22I will at some point
19:24My family is just like
19:26So messed up
19:28And broken you know
19:30But you really love yours
19:32And I love you
19:34Yeah but this you and me
19:36It's not about love it's bigger than that
19:38That's not your problem
19:40I'm not Muslim
19:42I'm not Pakistani
19:44I can't have children
19:46You didn't tell Zahida did you?
19:48No of course not
19:50But how would you tell your parents that?
19:52Like oh FYI
19:54You're never going to have grandkids so
20:00Did you just shush me with a kiss?
20:02Just letting you know
20:06Know what?
20:08It's going to be okay
20:12It just doesn't
20:14Feel like it
20:18Made a big declaration today
20:20Now it's my turn
20:22What should I say to you?
20:24What is love?
20:26It's a disease of the soul
20:28It's a curse
20:30Even if love is scary
20:32Love is dangerous
20:36Love you
20:40Love you
20:48And I'm a person
20:50I know I'm all panicking over this
20:52Okay
20:56Okay
21:08How was money?
21:10Massively relieved
21:12Same
21:14Yeah talk about sweating bullets
21:16But we're on the right track
21:18We do
21:20Look about the Mayhews
21:22Okay let me have it
21:24It turns out it was a clerical error
21:26In accounts
21:28What?
21:30They don't like fraud to begin with but nope
21:32Seriously?
21:34Believe me I wouldn't joke about this
21:36Our lawyers explain it to their lawyers and it is done
21:38I mean we do have to pay
21:40Well you have to pay so no more fancy nights out
21:42I will give up all my fancy nights out
21:44Thank you
21:46Don't do it
21:50Don't do it again
21:52I promise
21:58Your man's amazing
22:00I know
22:02He's in one of my dreams
22:06Really?
22:08Yes
22:10He's holding his new baby
22:12His baby?
22:14Yeah brand new dad
22:32Maybe you should have thought about that
22:34Before you hooked up with some unhinged slutty surgeon
22:36Who made you feel young again
22:38Can you please keep your voice down?
22:40You don't get to control me
22:42Well actually I'm the head of ED so this kind of affects the workplace
22:44There it is
22:46I'm just supposed to back off whenever you say shut up like a good girl right?
22:48You need to see the bigger picture
22:50I am of my life with Billy
22:52What?
22:54I think things are getting serious
22:56Okay that's great I've told you I think you guys are good together so go for it
22:58I can't if I'm not honest with him
23:00He's important to me
23:02It'll just hurt him
23:04It's a chance I have to take
23:06I can't take that chance with Drew
23:08You can
23:10No I can't
23:12It's time
23:14No
23:16Look I know you don't want to do this but you have to tell the truth
23:18Billy
23:30Billy
