00:00Are you alright mate?
00:03300 bucks went missing from the tram.
00:06Carl reckons I took it.
00:07But you can't dad.
00:08Getting the cops involved will make it 10 times worse.
00:10Felix didn't do it.
00:11Then where did the money go?
00:12I don't know but he wouldn't take it.
00:13Not after you've been so good to him.
00:14I don't want to think the worst of anyone, alright?
00:17Unfortunately with Felix's precedent, Carl seemed pretty certain.
00:20And to think I was the one who wanted to give Felix another chance.
00:22I absolutely won't make that mistake again.
00:25Felix only just got that job and started finding his feet.
00:27Why would he throw that away now?
00:29Do you guys think I did it?
00:33Oh, you know, we're just trying to wrap our hands around it all, mate.
00:37Whatever.
00:38One way or another the truth will come out.
00:49Set the scene for the big night.
00:50Oh yeah, I love a little bit of ambiance.
00:53Are you coming to Boyland?
00:55Oh, that sounds like fun but I don't think Byron wants me here.
00:58The kids have made it pretty clear I have to keep my distance.
01:00Oh, that's a shame.
01:03That means you get to miss out on my fantastic outfit.
01:06I believe it's going to turn a few heads.
01:08That definitely sounds worth the price of admission.
01:12But it's obviously the right call to respect the kids' wishes.
01:15I think so, yeah.
01:18I'll break a leg and I'm sure you'll knock them dead.
01:21Thanks.
01:23I'll go.
01:25See ya.
01:28Cheers.
01:35Ta-da!
01:37What do you reckon?
01:38Oh, they came up a treat.
01:39They look great.
01:40Yes, well, thank you.
01:41Do you know, I think your father got more paint on my shirt than he did on the cabinets.
01:45So what, should I use the tiny brush?
01:47Well, it saved me from having to throw that shirt out.
01:50Which reminds me, you should come to this Boylesque tonight.
01:54Well, I assume Byron would rather I skip it.
01:57Oh, surely not.
01:58It is for charity.
02:00I'll text him and ask.
02:01The whole neighbourhood's going to see me.
02:03Starkers.
02:04Why not Dad as well?
02:05Make it even weirder.
02:07Honestly, I think he's coming because of Mum.
02:10They're getting along weirdly well.
02:13It's actually sort of, kind of oddly sweet.
02:16Hang on, what's going on here?
02:17I thought we both agreed we weren't going to let our guard down around here.
02:19I'm not.
02:20I'm just letting you know that I think Mum might be.
02:23And just so you know, I will have my eyes closed when you perform tonight.
02:27The Starkers thing.
02:29As you can see, the waterhole is currently undergoing its transformation.
02:33Beautiful.
02:34Hey, you're still going to be able to go on, mate.
02:36How's the heavy?
02:37Oh, don't you worry about me.
02:38I've reworked my act.
02:39I am still going to give the people what they want.
02:41It's going to be a huge hit, I can tell.
02:44Yeah, I wouldn't jump the gun if I were you.
02:47Well, this protest that Hilary and Moira have organised could derail everything.
02:50I thought you were sorting that out.
02:52Yeah, I tried, but I don't know if it's actually worked or not.
02:55Guess we'll find out tonight, won't we?
03:01Hey, Aaron.
03:02Hey.
03:03Are you excited for tonight?
03:04Yeah, I think it's going to be a blast.
03:06Yeah, can't wait.
03:07Especially that reveal.
03:08Yeah, I think as long as we can get everyone in the room up on their feet, that's the main thing.
03:11Yeah.
03:12Alright, well, see you tonight.
03:13Yeah.
03:14See?
03:16Mate, he has cartooned up our eyes every time I see him.
03:18What? No, I told you, he's just being friendly.
03:21You are so oblivious.
03:23He's the biggest smitten kitten that I've ever seen.
03:25So you don't even know if he's actually gay?
03:27Yeah, I do.
03:29Sam, can we get that microphone ready so we can be able to do a sound check?
03:32Good idea.
03:36Hey, guys, what's up?
03:37You seem a bit stressed.
03:38If you guys want to do one last minute rehearsal, we can run through the quarry again.
03:43It's not about the show.
03:44Carl's accused me of stealing from the tram.
03:46He's fired me.
03:48It's not true, but I can't prove it.
03:51Are the police formally involved?
03:54No, not yet.
03:55If this is still up in the air, maybe it's best you bow out of the performance.
03:58But I didn't do anything wrong.
04:00I believe you.
04:01But if Carl makes a big deal out of this, it could really derail the night.
04:06Right.
04:08Yeah, got it.
04:10I'm really sorry, Felix.
04:19Do you believe me?
04:21Yeah, I do.
04:24You made so many changes for the better, I doubt you'd ruin that for a few hundred bucks.
04:29Thanks.
04:30That means a lot.
04:33Felix.
04:38I gave you the chance to prove yourself.
04:40And all you've done is show us exactly who you are.
04:42Hang on, let's not jump the gun here.
04:43I'm not even upset with you.
04:44I'm upset with myself for letting my guard down.
04:46But that won't happen again.
04:47This is a parole violation.
04:49And theft.
04:50Now, brother or no brother, as a police officer, you have a responsibility to address this.
04:55What about innocent until proven guilty?
04:57Yeah, well, it seems that's only a matter of time.
05:01Because if Carl doesn't make a formal report, I will.
05:03I will.
05:15I've been thinking.
05:16And tell me to zip it if I'm out of line.
05:19Sounding ominous.
05:21It's about Nicolette.
05:23I know she really misses living with Isla.
05:26Do you think you'll ever have her back under your roof?
05:28Probably.
05:30But it'll happen in its own time.
05:33Is this your cue to try and plead Nicolette's case?
05:38Step in and try and fix everything?
05:40No, not at all.
05:42I mean, I'd love to stick my oar in, but the kids have made it pretty clear it's not my place.
05:48We all appreciate you taking that on board.
06:03Hey.
06:06I've been looking for you.
06:10Look, don't worry.
06:12Dad's just worked up right now, but I'll make him see some sense.
06:15Doesn't matter.
06:17Remy said she'll report me even if Carl doesn't.
06:20Well, then I'll work on convincing her, too.
06:22That's what I'm here for.
06:24I'm here for you.
06:26I'm here for you.
06:28I'm here for you.
06:30I'm here for you.
06:32And convincing her, too.
06:34And then the next person?
06:36And the next?
06:38Is that just my life now?
06:40Needing people to stick up for me?
06:43Maybe I should just accept it.
06:45From now on, whatever I do, people are only going to see my past.
06:49Hey, you can't think like that.
06:52You're religious now, right?
06:54That means you believe good things happen to good people.
06:56If only it were that simple.
06:58Well, it should be.
07:00Otherwise, what's the point in having faith?
07:02Don't give up.
07:05I believe in you.
07:06I believe in you.
07:29Therese.
07:31I wanted to say sorry about intruding the other day.
07:33I should have called first.
07:34I apologise.
07:36My migraine made me all grumpy.
07:38Are you feeling better now, though?
07:40Yes, yes, I'm fine.
07:42So where's Kara this evening?
07:44Great question.
07:46I thought she was meeting me here.
07:53If anyone starts singing, I dream a dream.
07:55I'm waiting for the next exit.
07:59Do you need a drink?
08:01I wouldn't say no, just some bubbles.
08:03What is it with you two?
08:06Oh, we just called an early dinner.
08:08Like a date?
08:10No.
08:12No, like two people with a lot of history catching up before their son's show.
08:15What are you getting at?
08:17You two just seem awfully close all of a sudden.
08:19It's making my head spin.
08:21Just being civil.
08:23For the sake of the family, that is all.
08:25Hey, you made it.
08:27Oh, you weren't kidding about that outfit.
08:29This old thing?
08:31You should see it when I really make an effort.
08:33Wait.
08:35Come here, you're going to want to see this.
08:37Is it a protest?
08:39Dad.
08:42Stop the smut!
08:44Stop the smut!
08:46Stop the smut!
08:50Is this it?
08:52Seems like it.
08:54But what happened to Hilary and Moira?
08:56I thought they were going to bring half of the Irene residents.
08:58Seems like those vouchers you got paid off, Dad.
09:00No, Susan said Moira didn't take them.
09:01Well, I'd still call it a win.
09:03Yeah, no complaints from me.
09:05Can you help me move them along?
09:07Thanks, guys.
09:09Alright, folks, come on, you've made your point, it's time to move it along.
09:11Look at this, I mean, it's a lot of pressure being the first act.
09:13I've seen what you're showing and nobody will be disappointed.
09:15Look, that's what I'm saying.
09:17What if I mess up and everything goes too fast and I end up just showing the audience all my bits?
09:19Everything just comes out, it's hanging in the wind.
09:21It's just in the wind.
09:23Byron, Byron, we have bigger issues than that.
09:25Felix has pulled out, we're a man down.
09:27Okay, so the show's a little bit shorter.
09:29Is it really the end of the world?
09:31No, we're not ready for the spotlight.
09:33Hey, show's going.
09:39Welcome, my friends, to the home of your deepest desires.
09:43It's going to be hilarious.
09:45It's going to be cheeky, and when I say cheeky, I mean cheeky.
09:49And best of all, it's all for a fabulous cause.
09:54So, sit back, relax, and put your hands together for the lads of the Errands Bar.
09:59Errands Bar, for less.
10:29Woo-hoo!
10:54Well, someone in this room has been very, very bad.
10:58And it is my duty to pull them back into line.
11:05Ma'am, would you like to come onto the stage with me?
11:28Woo-hoo!
11:42Hey.
11:44Oh, hey.
11:46I was just getting some fresh air.
11:48Yeah, me too.
11:50Oh, listen, thanks for my card and gift.
11:52You know, Therese, I really wish things were different.
11:55I miss you.
11:59I miss you too.
12:11Look at this place.
12:13Woo-hoo!
12:14Kitty Split!
12:16Woo-hoo!
12:17It's Carla the Cat, I'm here as you say.
12:20I do bonus in every way, if you're in the know.
12:22No, thank you.
12:23Come see me, I'll make you well.
12:25Alright!
12:27Oh, yeah!
12:28My motor's on 4, I'm just down the hall.
12:30Give me a shout, I'll be at your door.
12:32Just be smart when you make it, cause I've been told,
12:34I'm going to have to charge.
12:36Oh, you'll be free.
12:38Free as a river.
12:39Sing it with me.
12:40You'll be free.
12:41Free as a river.
12:42Hear, hear!
12:43I'm gonna be free!
12:45Free as a river!
12:47Hooray!
12:49Hooray!
13:20Oh, my God!
13:26Come on!
13:31Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
13:32It's taking too long! It's taking too long!
13:38I'm not sure I don't improve on your dance.
13:40We have come down to the last, the grand finale, but I promise, we won't leave you high and
13:50dry.
13:51The record's amazing.
13:52Thanks.
13:53So are yours.
13:54Yeah.
13:55I was thinking afterwards, maybe we could get a drink.
13:56Oh, of course.
13:57Yeah.
13:58That's it.
13:59We're all going to deserve a drink after this.
14:00Yeah.
14:01I was thinking, maybe this.
14:02So ladies and gentlemen, one last time, give it up for the boys of the Evansboro Boylist.
14:09Give it up for the boys of the Evansboro Boylist.
15:14That was perfect.
15:15I should be so proud.
15:16Yes, I'll second that.
15:17Well, I've just spoken to the police outreach team and they are absolutely thrilled, not
15:23to mention the brilliant part.
15:25That's been for accidents.
15:26So what I'm hearing is that you were wrong to ever doubt me and it'll never happen again.
15:30Yeah, don't push it.
15:31I'm still confused as to why the protests was such a fizzle.
15:34Oh, I can shed some light on that.
15:36Irene Rising got hold of some free tickets for an over-70s Swingdance event
15:40and Moira and Hilary were more than happy to take them off our hands.
15:44Really? And that was all you were doing?
15:46I couldn't possibly comment, Hank.
15:49Susan, you saved our butts. Thank you.
15:52Take the viewer. Go sit.
15:58There you are. You missed the whole show.
16:00Yeah.
16:02Uh, what's going on?
16:04Something felt off about the whole tram situation, so I spent some time sussing the place out.
16:09I thought I was the only amateur sleuth around here.
16:11I'm not sure I'm comfortable with you rifling through my business.
16:14Well, does this change your mind?
16:22Where'd you find this?
16:24It had fallen down a gap between the counter and the register.
16:27But we searched there.
16:29Well, I had to unscrew that loose panel to get to it.
16:33It seems I was a bit careless.
16:35But not a bit.
16:37I knew it.
16:39I feel excited.
16:41I don't know what to say. I'm mortified. I'm sorry.
16:44So am I.
16:48Can you accept my apology? And would you come back to work at the tram?
16:52Deal. Clean slate?
16:54Clean slate. Yeah.
16:56I can't thank you enough.
17:00You were spectacular.
17:03You were funny. Charming.
17:05You are far too kind.
17:07Not at all. I mentioned you looked breathtaking.
17:09Yeah, you did, but you can do it again if you really want.
17:12Honestly, it was just so good that you could make it.
17:14Yeah. I saw a whole other side of you.
17:17And I don't just mean the outfit.
17:20You're a very special person, you know it.
17:33I love you.
17:48Awesome!
17:50I'll do the same thing.
17:52Cheers.
18:00I have to admit, it was odd seeing my child doing a striptease.
18:04I'm just impressed with his dance moves.
18:06He didn't get his rhythm from me.
18:09Okay, well I might head home. I need to pack.
18:12Pack? You're going away?
18:14Last minute decision.
18:16I'm going to Adelaide for a few days.
18:19I think it might be nice to visit.
18:22Oh, that sounds lovely.
18:23Will you both be able to cope all at once?
18:25Yes, yes, yes, of course. You just look after yourself.
18:27And give our love to Piper.
18:29I will. I will. I'll text you.
18:31Okay.
18:37Another round?
18:38No, I'm good. Thank you.
18:47I was surprised you invited Vic to join us for a nightcap.
18:51Oh? Surprised why?
18:54Because five minutes ago you didn't want to know him.
18:56Now you're getting him like a house on fire.
18:59You sound like Nicolette.
19:01Well that just tells me that I'm right.
19:05Is there something going on between you two?
19:08I don't know.
19:10I suppose I realised I may have been a little hasty.
19:13Writing him off.
19:15He really is trying.
19:21Are you developing feelings for him again?
19:27He's caught me by surprise.
19:29More than anyone, I guess.
19:31I think I'm falling in love with him again.
19:46Coming up on Neighbours.
