00:00Previously on Neighbours.
00:02Well this is me, you know, coming to the table.
00:04Just when I'm absolutely knackered.
00:06And then he had the audacity to walk off after I cooked for him and everything.
00:10What about taking a few days personal leave?
00:12I don't need it.
00:14You're suspended.
00:15Impatience and irritability are symptoms of PTSD.
00:19He wanted to make sure that I would be there for you if he took a step back.
00:23Look, I know things usually get messy with Paul and I,
00:26but it's just reassuring knowing that he's around.
00:31Neighbours
00:34Everybody needs good neighbours
00:38With a little understanding
00:42You can find the perfect blend
00:48Neighbours
00:51Should be there for one another
00:56That's when good neighbours become good friends
01:14That's okay.
01:17Please don't leave me.
01:27No!
01:34I know, but you've worked through so much since Toadie blew up our lives.
01:39It doesn't mean it's a good idea to lean on Paul.
01:42No, I know, but it just, it makes me feel better.
01:46It makes me feel like I'm still valuable.
01:49I just don't want to see you walk into a bad situation when you're so vulnerable.
01:54Yeah, you're right.
01:56We really should keep our distance from each other.
01:59I mean, it's not like he's a magic bullet or anything.
02:02More like a landmine.
02:03Touche.
02:05Are you heading into Irene this afternoon?
02:07On my way. I just wanted to check that you were okay first.
02:11I will be.
02:13You sure?
02:15Well, I mean, I've come this far on my own, so.
02:19Okay.
02:20Well, I'll see you in a little while.
02:50Okay.
03:12Hey, sorry if I'm interrupting anything.
03:14No, it's fine. Is everything okay?
03:17Have you spoken to Nell in the past few days?
03:20Um, we've sent a few messages, but I think she's pretty homesick by the sounds of it.
03:26Yeah, she's just really worried that everyone's forgetting about her.
03:29I keep trying to tell her we haven't, but.
03:30Oh, I'll give her a call when she's home later.
03:35Listen, it's not all new to handle.
03:38Everyone needs to support Nell, especially her family.
03:41Yeah, I reckon she'll be really glad to talk to you.
03:45Well, I know what it's like to feel cut off.
03:48And I have been thinking about her a lot, so I'll let her know.
03:52Thanks.
03:53Okay, bye.
03:54Bye.
03:55Bye.
04:16Hey, I've got lemonade if you want it.
04:19Thanks.
04:21What's that?
04:22Uh, it's something a mum's.
04:25Oh, offshore bank account?
04:41Ding, ding, ding.
04:43I think the other guy's a pile of pulp on the ground.
04:47Listen, Wendy said that you've taken a bit of time off work.
04:51Great, I won't do what she tells everyone we've ever met.
04:53Look, I wasn't going to mention anything, but if there's anything that I can do to help,
04:57I mean, you might want to ditch the show.
05:01Seriously?
05:02You have more important things you need to put your energy into right now.
05:05Look, I lost it for a few seconds, it's nothing.
05:21Hey babe, you on break?
05:25Yeah, I just caught Wendy.
05:27Oh, how's she doing?
05:29I said that you could recommend some marriage counsellors if they decide to go that way.
05:33Oh yeah, I mean, that's a good idea.
05:38What's that?
05:40What I came to talk to you about.
05:44JJ found your birthday goals from your 40th.
05:46Ah.
05:48Look, to be fair, that was a really busy day.
05:51You know, with the makeover and the surprise party, I did that all pretty quick.
05:55Just off the top of my head.
05:57Well, we didn't read it all, but the first one was a bit of a curveball.
06:02What, my goal to build something more exciting than the sunroom?
06:06You dream to have another baby?
06:10It's nothing serious.
06:12That's why I said it was a dream.
06:13It must be a little bit serious, you wrote it in your letter.
06:17Have you been thinking about this a lot?
06:22Well, yeah, I guess I have.
06:28I just thought sending you those silly messages would cheer you up.
06:33No, it wasn't a brush off.
06:36Okay, I will call you every single day until you stop thinking about it.
06:40I will call you every single day until you stop thinking that.
06:46Okay.
06:48Fine.
06:50Yeah, you go, I'll talk to you soon.
06:53Okay, bye.
06:56Therese?
06:59I was just talking to Nell.
07:01Nothing I say will cheer her up.
07:04Oh, hey, hey, come here, come here.
07:10Come here.
07:29I'm sorry, I shouldn't have.
07:31No, no, I shouldn't have, I shouldn't have, I'm sorry.
07:35I, um, I should go to work.
07:38Yeah.
07:40Okay.
07:55So, look, can I just point out that I know it's completely impractical and that age is a big factor.
08:03Which is why we should talk about it now instead of in five years when you're supposed to open the letter.
08:07It would be crazy though.
08:09Can you imagine trying to find another donor?
08:11I'd be paranoid we'd get another Felix.
08:13I mean, no arguments here.
08:16Kara, like practicality aside, is this really what you want most?
08:23I couldn't write anything in your birthday dreams.
08:28Well, I love our family.
08:30Wouldn't it be great if there was more of us?
08:33And the baby years, how fun were they?
08:37Yes, very.
08:40And very chaotic.
08:42See, you don't want another one.
08:44That's where your mind went first.
08:46Hey, I didn't say that.
08:48Do you ever think about having a third?
08:52Not since Dex, he was little.
08:55I thought we agreed, but.
08:58Yeah, I guess that feeling just never 100% went away for me.
09:02Well, if it is important to you then I would be open to talking about that.
09:09You say one thing but your face says another.
09:13It's fine, just forget it.
09:16You know, we both have way less energy and busier jobs.
09:20People have babies at 40 all the time.
09:23We'd both have to really want it to commit to the sleep business.
09:27Yeah, and the lack of free time.
09:31I'd never want to push you into anything you didn't want to do.
09:34But I'm worried that you'll have regrets.
09:37And I love you for that.
09:40But relax, okay?
09:42It was just a really lovely dream that I never expected to happen.
09:48Sure.
09:50You look absurd.
09:52Oh! Oh!
09:54I'm sorry, sweetheart, I shouldn't have snuck up on you like that.
09:57No, no, my fault, are you okay?
09:59It's just a knock, it's just a knock.
10:01No, it's not, I've hurt you.
10:03It's all right, it's the same wrist I hurt a little while ago.
10:07That's all right, don't worry, sweetheart, it was an accident.
10:09I'll go get you the pain gel.
10:13You're welcome.
10:15Oh, hi, what brings you here?
10:18Therese.
10:19Ah, of course.
10:21Look, I just found her in the library.
10:24I thought I'd give her a call, she's got a lot of stuff to do.
10:27Oh, okay.
10:29We'll talk to you later.
10:31Oh, no, I've got to get back to work.
10:33No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
10:35I've got to get back to work.
10:37I've got to get back to work.
10:39I've got to get back to work.
10:41I've got to get back to work.
10:42Look, I just found her in the street in a bit of a state after a conversation with Nell.
10:47Look, I know that you're making an effort.
10:49I am.
10:50Yeah, but I just wondered if there's anything else you could do.
10:52Or maybe that I could do behind the scenes.
10:54Paul, no.
10:56We could spend day and night with Therese.
10:58She's still going to have low moments.
11:00Yeah, but just now she needed a shoulder to lean on and mine was the only one there.
11:05Oh.
11:06Yeah, if she hadn't pulled away, I don't know what I would have done.
11:09Actually, I do, that's the problem.
11:10You said you needed to keep away from her, let alone…
11:13Hugging her in the street, I know, I know.
11:15I just think her feelings towards you are more complicated than she realises.
11:19Her feelings? About me?
11:23I don't mean it like that.
11:25Yeah, well, hang on a second. As far as I'm aware, she's devastated because Toadie and the family moved away,
11:29but unless there's something I'm missing?
11:33No.
11:34No?
11:36She has tried very, very hard to get hold of me.
11:38Oh, Paul, stop.
11:40I can assure you, all Therese needs from you right now is friendship.
11:45Alright, yeah.
11:47Yeah, no, you're right, if you say so.
11:49Yeah, so just get this whole conversation out of your head.
12:04Dad, what's going on with your mum?
12:07Don't brush me off.
12:08I spoke to Felix.
12:10It's not like you're busy or anything.
12:14It's a downside of having time on your hands.
12:17Why are you acting so out of character?
12:21I mean, I can't even imagine you manhandling a suspect.
12:24It was just one stuff-up.
12:26It was just about your issues with mum.
12:28Sadie, please.
12:30Just have a proper conversation with her, without being defensive.
12:33Please, you have to, and you need to.
12:35It's not that simple.
12:37Why isn't it?
12:46I don't know how to explain it.
12:49The more that I think, the more I just keep seeing her with Quinn.
12:56I know I wasn't deliberate.
12:58Obviously.
13:00But she still spent all night with this guy she had such a crush on.
13:03All night with this guy she had some deep emotional connection with.
13:07She told you it wasn't like that.
13:09Over and over again.
13:12I froze.
13:17She needed Quinn.
13:20Ever since this guy came into our lives,
13:25it's shown me that we're not what I thought we were.
13:31Dad.
13:34We won't be able to get our perfect marriage back.
13:38Don't say that.
13:41I don't know what else to tell you.
14:03Dad.
14:04Dad.
14:05Dad.
14:32I shouldn't be too slow, though.
14:33I'll keep you posted.
14:35Okay.
14:36Yeah.
14:37Bye.
14:38Bye.
14:39I didn't know you were going to be here.
14:40Yes, I thought I'd do some paperwork.
14:42The healthiest distraction I could think of.
14:45I thought you'd gone home.
14:46Oh, I just popped back to see Hilary.
14:48She seemed a bit lonely earlier.
14:50Oh, well, you go home.
14:51I'll play some cards with her later.
14:52No, no, no.
14:53I'll do it.
14:54I think I might owe you one.
14:58Why?
14:59Don't shoot me.
15:00But Paul came to see me earlier and I wasn't on top of my game.
15:04I didn't say much, but I may have implied something of what we were talking about earlier.
15:10Susan.
15:11I know, I know.
15:12I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
15:13I told him that he misunderstood me, but I don't know that that's sunk in.
15:18Oh, what am I going to do?
15:19You just have to hope that he keeps doing the honourable thing and stays away from you.
15:24And if he doesn't, then you have to be very, very firm with him.
15:28Oh, it's Hilary.
15:30Why don't we all have a game of cards?
15:32No, no, I'm feeling suddenly tired.
15:35Very tired.
15:37I'm so sorry.
15:42Okay.
15:59I'll send through the names of some counsellors.
16:01They're all really experienced with family dynamics.
16:05Okay, well, I will leave that up to you.
16:08Alright.
16:09Bye.
16:12Is she okay?
16:13I hope so.
16:14Things seem really bad between her and Andrew.
16:17Well, hopefully that helps.
16:19I just texted JJ, reminding him we're here.
16:23Well, ten minutes late is not exactly un-resident in bed.
16:26Ten minutes late is not exactly un-resident in behaviour.
16:28Yeah, but you said that he was shocked when he read the letter.
16:31He was a bit out of the blue.
16:34Just hope he's not worried.
16:39My round again.
16:45So, I've got the names of some marriage counsellors.
16:49Remy's recommendations.
16:50Look, I don't know how we get back to the way we were, but maybe a professional can show us.
16:57Worth a shot.
17:00Do you mean that?
17:02Why not?
17:06So you're not just saying that to get rid of me?
17:09If I make the appointment, you will come?
17:13Schedule's wide open.
17:14Well, you don't sound very positive about it.
17:16We haven't even gone yet.
17:18Give me a chance.
17:22Alright.
17:24We'll let you know the details.
17:44Thanks.
17:58Thanks.
18:07Okay, well now he's late, late.
18:11Nope, he's here, here.
18:13He doesn't look too traumatised.
18:15Hey, sorry I'm late. Forgot I had stuff to do for our reading.
18:18Hey, you know, if it's anything more than that, you can say.
18:22Ma said you saw the letter?
18:24Yeah, um, so is that, like, serious?
18:28Another kid?
18:30I already told you, Ma, it was just an idea.
18:33It wasn't a serious suggestion.
18:35We're not going to be turning our lives upside down any time soon.
18:38Good, I was worried I'd have to share a room with Dex.
18:40No one wants that kind of chaos.
18:42Take a breath.
18:45It's, um, it's not because of me, is it?
18:49How do you mean?
18:51You know, because I'm sort of like the problem kid.
18:54I was wondering if you wanted a new model.
18:56No, no, don't think that.
18:59I just, I thought it would be nice to have more of a good thing.
19:02Okay?
19:04I love you two so much that I would clone you if I could.
19:07Well.
19:09You're my everything.
19:10You hearing me?
19:12Yeah.
19:14Thanks.
19:16You know, actually, I wouldn't mind being cloned.
19:18Well, I'll look into it. Can't be more than IVF.
19:21Knock, knock. It's only me.
19:23Oh, let me guess who you've come to see.
19:26Hilary?
19:28Seriously, Paul, there's nothing I said before that should have you hot tailing it over here to find Therese.
19:33What?
19:35Is it such a crime that I should want to find out how Therese is feeling?
19:38In her own words, not second hand through you.
19:40You asked me to keep an eye on her so that you could step back.
19:43Paul, she's been through a hell of an ordeal.
19:46Her feelings are probably wildly swinging from one minute to the next.
19:50Please, please don't take advantage of that.
19:53Oh, well, thank you very much for your extreme lack of faith in my character.
19:57No, I just think that your initial instinct to back off was the right one.
20:02Yeah, and I am doing my utmost to keep to myself.
20:05Come on, I'm only human.
20:07And besides, I just, sometimes I think I just can't live without her.
20:15If your feelings for her are really so strong, it shouldn't be hard for you to put her needs first.
20:26Yeah.
20:36Come on.
21:01Hi.
21:02Hi.
21:03I came to say sorry.
21:06No, it's just you've needed me and I've been the exact opposite to available.
21:11But you had your reasons for staying away.
21:15It's quite noble.
21:17Quite stupid, really.
21:19Of course, I can just be your friend. I don't know what I was thinking.
21:23That means more to me than anything else in the world and it doesn't matter if it's difficult for me.
21:27Oh, Paul.
21:28That's assuming you want me as your friend after all this idiocy.
21:32Actually, um.
21:38Your timing couldn't be any better.
21:42I came so close, so close to drinking this.
21:47Yeah, that's not worth it, is it?
21:49I know.
21:51And I got myself into such a state.
21:57But you're exactly right.
21:59But you're exactly what I needed.
22:24Coming up on Neighbours.
22:25Neighbours.
22:26Mike shouldn't be leaving you to tie up his loose ends.
22:28You're saying that, really?
22:30I am choosing to believe that everything is going to turn out for the best.
22:33Are we still talking about Boylusk or Vic?
22:36I can't just be her friend, bro.
22:39Anyway, what if that's not what she wants either?
