00:00You don't want to see me again.
00:09No, I do.
00:10I really like you.
00:11But, Abigail...
00:12Yeah?
00:13I do not want her to be blindsided by this later on.
00:17Levi, we are in a really good place and I don't want to ruin that.
00:20You're choosing to jeopardize this.
00:22By having a life.
00:23Go down there.
00:24Tell her.
00:25Look at you.
00:26You're scared.
00:28Maybe you should ask yourself why.
00:29We're lying to Abby and to ourselves if we think that we can keep this up without her
00:33getting hurt.
00:34You and I, we're done.
00:36I can't work with you anymore.
00:37I have way too many patients on my books.
00:39Okay, so please get rid of someone else.
00:41Unfortunately, you were the last person that I took on.
00:44Someone first to go?
00:45I'm sorry.
00:46It really is for the best.
00:47We'll figure it out, okay?
00:49We'll find someone else.
00:50Someone even better.
00:51No!
00:52I don't want to work with anyone else.
00:53She even told him that I'm turning down the transfer.
00:55I took it to motion.
00:57You outrank me now.
00:58I lost track of time.
00:59Cash.
01:00Cash, it's fine.
01:01No.
01:02Rose, it's not fine.
01:03If Sarge was here, he'd be ripping my head off.
01:04I'm really struggling at work.
01:05Since when?
01:06Since Cash came back.
01:07Don't!
01:08You're starting your day out there today.
01:09I know.
01:10Did you see that last wave?
01:11It was so brutal.
01:12I know.
01:13I know.
01:14I know.
01:15I know.
01:16I know.
01:17I know.
01:18I know.
01:19I know.
01:20I know.
01:21I know.
01:22I know.
01:23I know.
01:24I know.
01:25I know.
01:26It was so brutal.
01:27You got pumped.
01:28Hi, I'm making dinner tonight for everyone.
01:31Are you around?
01:32I'll have to get back to you on that.
01:36Since when do you even cook?
01:37Hey, I cook.
01:38And it's been pretty chill at home, so I figured why not celebrate, right?
01:41For sure.
01:42Abby's been putting in work.
01:43It feels like a completely different vibe now.
01:46Feels good.
01:47I feel like those counselling sessions are really paying off.
01:50I reckon we'd finally turn that corner.
01:51Alright, see you later.
01:53Yep.
01:55If Cash can't handle you being in charge, you gotta call him out.
02:00That's the thing.
02:01He's been nothing but respectful about the whole work situation.
02:04He has?
02:05Yeah.
02:06I'm the one who's struggling.
02:07Right.
02:08Why?
02:09When I started here, he was my senior and he made me feel welcome.
02:13Sounds like Cash.
02:14I had a bit of a crush on him, actually.
02:17What?
02:18Tell me about it.
02:19It wasn't a thing.
02:20It's not a thing.
02:21No, you can tell me about it, though.
02:22It lasted for like five minutes.
02:23Yep, give it to me.
02:24Focus.
02:25Cash was my mentor and he's a great cop.
02:27But now he's calling you boss.
02:29Yeah.
02:30And fetching your coffees.
02:31He's had a demotion.
02:32How do I suddenly start bossing him around, telling him what to do?
02:35Well, do you think he knows that you're struggling?
02:37I hope not.
02:38Look, I get why that would feel weird.
02:41I do.
02:42But maybe you just need time to adjust.
02:45That's all.
02:47I need to get back to work.
02:49Okay, well, how about you come back to my morning?
02:52And I will make you breakfast and we can keep talking.
02:55What if he brings it up in the meantime?
02:57Well, you can be honest or you can just change the subject.
03:01Oh, gee, great.
03:02That's a big help.
03:03Yeah, you're welcome.
03:04Sorry.
03:06See ya.
03:07Bye.
03:09It's gotta be me, right?
03:22I'm the problem.
03:23No, Abby.
03:24No, of course it's not you.
03:26You're not the problem.
03:27Except people leave me all the time.
03:29No, no.
03:30This is different.
03:31Trust me.
03:32How do you know?
03:33Because Tim said it himself, okay?
03:35He's got too many clients.
03:36It's not personal.
03:37It's kind of hard not to take it personally when I can't even pay someone to hang out with me.
03:41Hey, guys.
03:42Hope you're hungry.
03:43You're home early.
03:44Yeah, I had the urge to cook us all dinner.
03:47Actually, Abby, you were the one that inspired me.
03:49Cool.
03:50That sounds great.
03:51Yeah, I've just been working so much lately and I've barely seen you guys.
03:54Well, we have a lot to catch up on.
03:56Well, good, because I've got some nice wine, some yummy pasta.
03:59We can sit down.
04:00You can bring me up to speed.
04:01Okay, I'll take a shower.
04:02Abby, just hang on.
04:04Abby, wait a sec.
04:06If you want to talk about this, we—
04:08There's nothing to talk about.
04:09It's done.
04:10Okay?
04:13Is she alright?
04:19Yeah, but what's wrong?
04:22Tim's pulled out of his counselling sessions.
04:25Why?
04:27Because he'd rather sleep with Eden than do his job.
04:36Then there was one.
04:41Oi, I was going to head into Salt if you guys aren't doing anything.
04:45Oh, I don't know.
04:46I just thought a change of scenery might be good for Perry.
04:48Get his mind off things.
04:51Yeah, yeah, no, no, no.
04:52No, I understand.
04:53It's all good.
04:54I'll see you around.
04:57I'm going to head off.
04:58Yeah, actually, do you want to go grab a drink?
05:02Maybe some other time.
05:03Yeah, no fraternising with the junior officers.
05:05That's not it.
05:06No, no, that's not it.
05:07I'm kidding.
05:08Sorry.
05:10I'll see you tomorrow.
05:11See ya.
05:17Whoa, I hope that's not your dinner, miss.
05:19Oh, no.
05:21Just a few treats for Mr Stewart tomorrow.
05:23Oh, yeah?
05:24How's he doing?
05:25Oh, you know.
05:26Still not himself.
05:27Refusing to talk.
05:29Any word on when Ru's going to be back?
05:30No, I haven't heard.
05:32Exactly what did you tell her?
05:35Well, I didn't tell her any of the stuff that happened in the hospital.
05:37I didn't want to freak her out.
05:38That's probably a good call giver, she couldn't get back here straight away.
05:41Well, I just told her how worried we were about him, you know.
05:44Hopefully, when she gets back, she'll be able to turn it all around.
05:48Bye, Merlin.
05:49Good on ya.
05:50See ya, miss.
05:51Yeah.
05:52Hey, Ness.
05:53Oh, look out.
05:54Here he is.
05:56Ignore him.
05:57So sorry.
05:58Coffee?
05:59No, actually, I've just finished my shift.
06:00I might take a burger.
06:02Coming right up.
06:04So, we have all heard that you have decided to stay.
06:08Yeah, yeah, yeah.
06:09I'm working at Yabby Creek again.
06:10And that's great, mate.
06:11Everyone's going to be so excited that you're sticking around.
06:14I know.
06:15You didn't order vegetables, but I put some in there anyway.
06:17See, I can have them.
06:19You both will.
06:20So, is your order for takeaway?
06:22No, no, no.
06:23I thought I might have it here.
06:24Thanks, guys.
06:34Thanks.
06:38Thank you for dinner.
06:39I'll clean up, guys.
06:41Aw, thanks.
06:42It was a pleasure.
06:43I'm glad you enjoyed it.
06:44Especially after the day you've had.
06:46Yeah, look, the gym thing just took me by surprise.
06:48But who needs them, right?
06:49That's right.
06:50Plenty of counsellors in the sea.
06:51Mm-hmm.
06:52Okay.
06:53Night-night.
06:54Night.
06:58I need a glass of water.
07:04Thanks.
07:11Hey.
07:13How are you feeling?
07:14Really.
07:16I am sorry for being a mess earlier.
07:18I just needed to get over myself.
07:20But honestly, I'm fine.
07:21It is totally fair that you felt let down by Tim.
07:25I'm just glad you're feeling better.
07:27Mm-hmm.
07:34Night.
07:35Good night.
07:42You gotta hand it to Abby.
07:44She's handling this pretty well.
07:46If Eden hadn't have been so selfish, none of this would be happening.
07:48Oh, well, she's going through a tough time, especially since Cash ended things with her.
07:52Not that I'm taking her side.
07:54This could ruin all of Abby's progress.
07:56Look, it's definitely a curveball, but I actually think Abby's a lot stronger than you're giving her credit for.
08:00She's not strong enough to handle the real reason why Tim stepped away.
08:08Hey.
08:10Sorry I missed dinner.
08:17Hey.
08:19What's wrong?
08:30Don't blame you for hiding.
08:34Don't blame you for lying to yourself.
08:38Just to get through.
08:40Ah, honey.
08:41Hey.
08:43Hope you're hungry.
08:44Not particularly.
08:46How would you like your eggs?
08:47Scrambled or poached?
08:49Marilyn, how many times do I have to tell you?
08:51I'm perfectly capable of getting my own breakfast.
08:53How about an omelette?
08:55Surprise me.
08:57How did you sleep?
08:59Horizontal, like most people.
09:01Well, was it better than the night before or worse?
09:04Marilyn, please, can we just have one morning where we don't have to play 40 questions?
09:09That's 20 questions, actually.
09:11I was just trying to be nice.
09:13You're sticking your nose in.
09:14I'm worried about you.
09:15Oh, for God's sake, Marilyn, I've told you a thousand times I'm fine.
09:18Now just back off.
09:21Hello.
09:22Rue, what the hell are you doing at home?
09:26It's good to see you too.
09:32Thank you for the lift.
09:33I'll catch up with you guys later.
09:34Uh...
09:35Wait, wait, no.
09:36I thought we were all having breakfast together.
09:38No, well, you guys go ahead.
09:39I think I'm just going to take a walk on the beach.
09:41I'll come.
09:42No, no.
09:43You're really going to give up breakfast with your girlfriend?
09:45Well, Mac won't mind.
09:46No.
09:47Levi, chill.
09:48It's all good.
09:49OK, well, we'll do lunch later.
09:51No, because I don't need someone holding my hand.
09:54Levi.
09:57I'll go.
10:03Hey.
10:04Come on.
10:09Want some company?
10:11Did Levi send you to check up on me?
10:13No.
10:14I can see why he's worried.
10:15I'm just really sick of talking about Tim.
10:17Fair enough.
10:18But why does that mean you have to cut your brother out?
10:22Because I don't want to be a burden.
10:24You still having a meal with the guy?
10:27Yeah.
10:29I'll text him about lunch.
10:31OK?
10:32Happy?
10:33What are you doing about counselling?
10:36I don't know.
10:38But I'm just not going to leave on Levi.
10:40This shouldn't be his problem.
10:46Hayden, you cannot ignore me forever.
10:49Call me back.
10:50Maybe she's just waiting for you to cool off a bit.
10:52I just don't understand what was going through her head.
10:55I really don't think she's trying to be malicious.
10:57I know what she's been through, OK?
10:59I don't want to hear it anymore.
11:00You and Abby's relationship has been so fragile.
11:03Nothing about this is smart.
11:05She should have stopped things from going any further with Tim.
11:07But she didn't.
11:08She could have chosen anyone else.
11:09Levi.
11:10I just don't understand.
11:11Cash, hi there.
11:12Hey.
11:13How are you Levites, Cash?
11:14Hey.
11:15Good.
11:16How's it going?
11:17Good.
11:18Great.
11:19Everything all right?
11:20Yeah, of course.
11:21Yeah, just...
11:22I'm just grooving.
11:25OK, I won't just leave you guys to it.
11:30Sounds like you were having the time of your life.
11:32I did, I tell you.
11:33And I met some terrific people too.
11:35What about young Ryder?
11:36How's he getting on?
11:37Oh, he's fantastic.
11:38You know what?
11:39He's managing the entire bar staff.
11:41I couldn't be prouder.
11:42Yeah, he's a good kid.
11:45So why did you come back early?
11:48I should have smelled a rat the minute you walked through the door.
11:53Mr Stewart, this is not her fault.
11:54Damn right it's not.
11:55And I'll deal with you later.
11:56Mr Stewart, I was worried.
11:58Marilyn.
11:59If I didn't want Rue around when I was lying flat out in a bed in hospital, what the hell
12:03makes you think I want her around now?
12:05You were in hospital?
12:06Yes.
12:07I couldn't just sit back and do nothing.
12:08I don't need a damn babysitter.
12:11Certainly not you.
12:12And certainly not my own daughter.
12:13All right.
12:14OK.
12:15Miss, why don't you just go to work, OK?
12:16All right.
12:17Sorry.
12:18Somebody had to do something.
12:20Bye.
12:21Bye.
12:22See ya.
12:23Bye.
12:24Well, it sounds like you've got quite a bit to fill me in on.
12:29Hello.
12:30Hey.
12:32This is exactly what I need to get me through today.
12:34Oh, you're expecting a tough day?
12:36Hey, Rose.
12:37You saw Cash in here yesterday looking a little bit flat.
12:40I hope you're not working him too hard.
12:42Justin, let the poor women enjoy their food.
12:44All right.
12:45Don't worry about him.
12:47He was only joking.
12:48Yeah, I know.
12:49It's just...
12:50Last night after work, Cash asked me out for a drink.
12:53I told him no.
12:54I didn't think he'd be sitting there on his own.
12:56Why'd you do that?
12:58Well, I was taking your advice.
13:00You told me to avoid him.
13:01No, that's not what I said.
13:03I said to avoid the conversation, not to avoid him altogether.
13:06Well, I panicked.
13:09OK, well, we're not going to leave this table
13:11until we work out a plan of attack.
13:15Hey, sorry I'm late.
13:17You don't need to apologise.
13:18You're in charge.
13:19Can we talk?
13:21Yeah, sure.
13:24You want me to grab you a cup of coffee?
13:26No, no, I don't want coffee.
13:29Is everything OK?
13:31No, it's not.
13:35We have a problem.
13:37Us, the ranks.
13:39I don't know how this is going to work.
13:45Roo, I feel terrible.
13:47Marilyn's gone and ruined your trip for nothing.
13:49No, she hasn't.
13:51Anyway, I'm here now, so we may as well have a chat.
13:56Um, don't you want to rest first?
13:58I mean, you must be exhausted after your flight.
14:00Dad, when I came in,
14:02you were tearing shreds off Marilyn,
14:04so you've just shown me that she had every reason
14:06to be worried about you.
14:08Yeah, but Marilyn still shouldn't have gone
14:10and interrupted your trip like that.
14:12OK.
14:15OK, well, look, I'm here,
14:17so how about you just tell me what's been going on?
14:19And why don't you start by telling me
14:21why you were in hospital?
14:36So, I have been acting weird,
14:38but you haven't done anything wrong.
14:41OK.
14:43So, what's the issue?
14:45When I think about
14:47you working here over the years
14:49and what I know of you as a police officer,
14:51it feels wrong now that I'm your boss.
14:53Uh, OK.
14:55Why is that?
14:56I don't know.
14:58You've tackled murders and police corruption.
15:00I've done a few of those cases with you.
15:02Yeah, but I only got this job because you left.
15:04No, no, no, I didn't leave, Rose.
15:06I was suspended.
15:08There's a big difference.
15:10I'm here because
15:12I don't have a choice.
15:14And you're there
15:16because it's the next step in your career.
15:20I guess all of that is true.
15:22It is true, Rose, and I happen to think
15:24that you're doing a fantastic job,
15:26and you never used to think twice about yelling at me before,
15:28so I have no idea why you want to start now.
15:30You know, next time you're out of line,
15:32I'm gonna come down on you like a ton of bricks.
15:34I wouldn't have it any other way, though.
15:36Are we good?
15:38Yeah, yeah.
15:41Let's go.
15:43And, Constable,
15:45a coffee wouldn't go astray.
15:47Yeah, on it.
15:55Hey, here you are.
15:57I've got news.
15:59I heard back from the agency.
16:01Is it good news?
16:03They loved the photos from the shoot.
16:05Seriously?
16:07Yeah, and they couldn't stop raving about us.
16:09Did they say which photos they reckon we should use?
16:11They're gonna send us a ton of proofs,
16:13and we just choose from there.
16:15It'll take a while, then.
16:17And you know how much I love Dewey.
16:19Anyway, I'll see you later.
16:21Hey, what made you change your mind about lunch?
16:23You know what?
16:25You worry way too much.
16:27No, I mean it, Levi.
16:29You really just need to chill.
16:31And no more Tim talk.
16:33Please.
16:35So what do you want to talk about?
16:37What's up?
16:39It's Tim
16:41with suggestions for alternative counsellors.
16:43Ah.
16:45At least he's seen that through.
16:47No more counselling.
16:49I'm done with it.
16:51Well...
16:53No, if Tim can abandon me so easily,
16:55then another counsellor could, too.
16:57It really was just a job to him.
16:59This is too important.
17:01I can't do it.
17:03Hey,
17:06sit.
17:10Want to talk about it?
17:12You must be really sick
17:14of hearing my problems.
17:16I wouldn't be standing here if I was.
17:20Abby can't do this on her own.
17:22She needs counselling.
17:24She'll come around.
17:26When she gets an idea in her head...
17:28Don't listen to me.
17:30She's still here.
17:32That's a really good sign.
17:34Why is this the first time hearing about it?
17:36Well, it's not like it's the first time.
17:38A ticker's given me a bit of curry.
17:40Yeah, but, Dad, you have a history of heart issues.
17:42I should have been here.
17:44I didn't want to worry you over nothing.
17:46It's not nothing.
17:48I mean, you just said there were complications.
17:50I can't make a big deal out of it.
17:52Dad, this is a big deal.
17:54I mean, what if things had gone the other way
17:56and I wasn't here and I couldn't say goodbye to you?
17:58I mean, you could have died.
18:00Okay, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
18:04I'm sorry.
18:14This morning you said you didn't want to burden your brother.
18:18So how does not going to counselling fit in with that?
18:20I'm not going to change my mind.
18:22Just please leave, I...
18:24He's just trying to look out for you.
18:34It's a lot of food for one person.
18:42It'd be a shame to let it go to waste.
18:48I get it.
18:49You're my big brother, but you don't get to tell me what to do.
18:54You're also not the enemy.
18:56Does that mean you're staying for lunch?
19:02And maybe we can talk about other options for counsellors?
19:05I'm not telling you what to...
19:06Fine.
19:07Fine.
19:08But I'm not going with anyone that Tim suggests.
19:09Hey, that's fine by me.
19:20You always seem to know the exact thing to say to her.
19:23Well, she just needed a friend.
19:25A friend.
19:27Right.
19:29I cannot believe I didn't see this sooner.
19:31It is so obvious.
19:34You've got a crush on Abby.
19:36What?
19:38I don't know what you're talking about.
19:40Oh, I think you do, Molly.
19:42Yep.
19:57So, enough.
19:58I'm a bit all out of the shop at the minute.
20:00You've had a big health scare.
20:02I think it's only natural.
20:03That's one way of putting it.
20:05Yeah.
20:07Anyway, like you said, the doctors gave you the all clear.
20:10So there's nothing more to worry about.
20:14I mean, that's right, isn't it?
20:18Any one of us could be in a car accident.
20:20Fall off a ladder.
20:22Eat a dodgy prawn.
20:24And that's it.
20:26You're down the drain.
20:28Dad, you can't think like that.
20:30Yeah, it can come down to one doctor's bad day.
20:35They make one mistake.
20:37And you're done and dusted.
20:40What do you mean one doctor's bad day?
20:46What are you not telling me?
20:54I'm glad that you're back and you're in a good place.
20:56I've missed you.
20:59My dad had a major medical event and Bree did nothing?
21:04I thought I'd find you here.
21:06When did you get back?
21:07As soon as I found out my father needed me.
21:10I'm so sorry for what happened to Elle.
21:12Are you?
21:13Because he was your patient and he put his trust in you and you let him down.
21:17Has Bree left yet?
21:18Not yet.
21:19I really thought that this was over but it's just going to keep following me around.
