00:00Previously on Neighbours.
00:02You'd think I was a terrible mother or was still no mother at all.
00:05Surely Darcy's are upstepping.
00:06Stop looking for things that aren't there, Carl.
00:08Uh, you should come to our dinner tonight.
00:09Please. It'll be really fun.
00:11I really do want to support you.
00:13Look, I know you're trying to prioritise our relationship,
00:16but I will never trust Chelsea.
00:18You're being really unfair.
00:19Why? Because I don't want to just move to Murrayville.
00:21Seth is not the only victim in this,
00:23and I'm going to do everything in my power
00:24to make sure that the court knows that.
00:25The school's finally bearable again.
00:27What's that smell?
00:30Neighbours
00:33Everybody needs good neighbours
00:37With a little understanding
00:42You can find the perfect plan
00:48Neighbours
00:51Should be there for one another
00:55That's when good neighbours
00:59I'll be trying to do what it says
01:05I'm studying remotely from now on.
01:07I'm not coming back here. I can't.
01:09Oh, no.
01:11What are you going to do about this?
01:12Well, I will support Nell studying remotely
01:14and I'm also determined to find and punish the culprence.
01:18You know, is it worth looking at other schools?
01:20No.
01:21I'm not doing that.
01:22I just want to stay at home until things settle.
01:25I'll see out the rest of the day, talk to my teachers,
01:28and that is it. I am done.
01:30Hey, do you want to go grab some air?
01:32I'll be okay for the rest of the day. Thanks for coming in.
01:40Are you sure that this is the right thing to do?
01:48I think we should respect Nell's wishes.
01:50I'm going to go and talk to the faculty and get started on the paperwork.
01:58Listen, Gerard, please understand that I never meant to hurt Nell when I went to the police.
02:03I just, I had to clear Leo's name before it was too late.
02:06I would have done the same thing if I was in your position, please.
02:10But what am I going to do now?
02:12Nell was just starting to feel positive again.
02:14How am I going to get her through this?
02:16Hey, hey, hey.
02:18You have a plan.
02:20You're going to try and get the charges dropped.
02:22Well, that's not going to make her feel any better
02:24whilst we wait for the hearing.
02:26Actually, you know what?
02:28I've got an idea.
02:30I think I know somebody who could help.
02:32I'm at capacity for consults throughout the week.
02:36Handball a few to me.
02:38Oh, hey.
02:40You are welcome.
02:42Oh, thank you.
02:43Um, I forgot about this.
02:45If it had sparkled, you would not have seen it for dust.
02:48Finders keepers.
02:50Unless, of course, the find is unappealing.
02:54No offence, Peter.
02:56Uh, something wrong?
03:01Uh, I guess we're just surprised that you left a bracelet in Amanda's studio.
03:06I took it off so I could wash a few dishes for her.
03:09When I walked her back from dinner with Jane?
03:11I mean, is that a crime?
03:13Well, just the fact that you went to that dinner.
03:16You don't want it to look like you're forming an inappropriate relationship.
03:19Am I being judged here?
03:21Because Harold was at your place all the time.
03:24And he was a resident-
03:25Harold is a very old friend of ours.
03:27What is it going to take to win your trust?
03:30Both of you.
03:32I've reached out to others that I hurt.
03:35Tess.
03:36And Dee.
03:37And, you know, at least they gave me an inch.
03:42So now you've had some time to think about it.
03:53Um, I, uh, I can't stop thinking of reasons not to move.
04:01I love my job and I'm due for a promotion, but the major thing for me is Sadie.
04:09I think she really needs her parents right now.
04:12Yeah, but don't underestimate her.
04:14I mean, the way she's handled this trauma and now the recovery.
04:18Sadie's a real force.
04:20No, I agree.
04:21I just think she's, uh, still really fragile.
04:25Is Sadie the real reason that you don't want to move?
04:33Or has your career got something to do with it?
04:35And be honest.
04:36Well, look, if my career was the only factor, I think we'd be having a very different conversation.
04:41I think we really need to put family first.
04:47Team Robwell, right?
04:54Hey, you!
04:55Hey, good to have you back in town.
04:58Um, how's Nell doing?
05:00Yeah, not great.
05:01Actually, that's what I've come to talk to you about.
05:08Thanks.
05:11What's up, buttercup?
05:14I've just been given a relief shift teaching 16-year-old boys P.E.
05:19Oh, hey, that could be fun.
05:21You know, get some fresh air, chuck a ball around, blow a whistle.
05:26Uh, get teased, pranked, farted on.
05:29Okay, that sounds not as fun.
05:33That's not all though, is it?
05:35I've just been given this amazing full-time job in Murrayville and Andrew won't even consider moving.
05:45He says it's about Sadie, but I know that it's about his job.
05:50He thinks his career is more important than mine.
05:53Oh, that is just...
05:57What were you gonna say?
05:58No, I was just gonna trash talk your man, but I resisted the urge.
06:02No, no, no, no, don't. On my account.
06:04Well, who the hell does he think he is?
06:07Okay, how many times have you ironed his uniform, packed his lunches, polished his baton?
06:13How many nights have you sat at home worried about him?
06:17So many.
06:18He changes your moments and he's not giving it to you. He's job-blocking you.
06:24That is exactly what he's doing.
06:25Why should your career be sidelined? Because you're the wife.
06:29The woman!
06:30The woman!
06:31You should grab the bull by the horns, grab your man by whatever makes him squeal the loudest.
06:37And you should...
06:39Oh!
06:41Go.
06:42Get.
06:43It.
06:45Girl!
06:47Yeah, yes!
06:48Yes!
06:50Thanks, Nick.
06:51I needed that.
06:52You're welcome.
06:54Okay, sounds good.
06:55Listen, Toad, when you spoke to Dee yesterday, did she know Darcy had moved back to her husband?
07:03Oh, of course she hasn't spoken to her for years. I knew it.
07:06Okay.
07:07Yeah, it's very interesting.
07:10Mm-hmm. Yeah.
07:11Uh, can I call you back?
07:16Yep.
07:17Is everything okay?
07:19Not really, no.
07:21I'm trying to feed our little guy, but he's just not interested.
07:26You feel how hot he is.
07:28Oh, gosh, yeah.
07:31Uh, well, have you still got any of that paracetamol?
07:33That seems to be worked well last time he had a fever.
07:36Oh, this, this is different.
07:38Oh, Remy, Remy.
07:40Hi.
07:42What's happening?
07:43Could you have a look at Thomas?
07:44He seems to have a high temperature.
07:45He's not feeding.
07:46He's listless.
07:48Yeah.
07:50Hey, little mate.
07:52What's going on with you?
07:54Let's have a look.
07:55Oh, uh...
07:58Oh, I signage.
08:04Ow!
08:06Aw!
08:07Aw!
08:08S vị?
08:10S Taste the touchyneigh?
08:12Uh, I-I think we should get into hospital.
08:14And what about when she was poo-pooing the trifle that I went to just so much effort to make for it
08:27You prefer a tartar trifle, do you mum? Well I would prefer a sweeter mother, but here we are. Mum, hi. So nice to bump into you. Would you like to join us for a stroll?
08:41Oh, I don't want to slow you down.
08:44Well, it's not like my power walking. No, you would be very rocky.
08:49I don't want to be a burden.
08:51Oh mum, don't be silly. No, we would really love to spend some time with you.
08:57You don't have to say that.
08:58Oh, for goodness sake mum. I'm telling you that we would like for you to join us. Please, please just take me at my word.
09:06I can't. I've got an appointment at the day spa.
09:10See you later.
09:14Typical. Typical. Guilting me into begging when she had no intention of coming along. Seriously, I don't know why I bothered.
09:24And just when you were singing her praises, why do I think it was a good idea to stay out the day?
09:35Do you want to go home?
09:38Heard. I only just got here.
09:41What are you doing here?
09:43Um, I was feeling nostalgic.
09:47You weren't here?
09:49Yeah.
09:50I was enrolled and I had the uniform.
09:54Okay, your dad sent me.
09:56Of course you did.
09:57I think because he knows that I went through something similar.
10:00Okay.
10:01Um, once upon a time, there was a evil podcasting goblin who set her sights on a beautiful innocent girl and made her out to be a cold blooded killer.
10:17That beautiful innocent girl was me.
10:19What do you know?
10:20I'm just setting the scene.
10:23I thought that the whole world was talking about Hellfire Holly.
10:27Watching me, staring at me.
10:30I wanted to crawl into a hole and disappear.
10:33And I basically did.
10:35When you quit the job.
10:37But then a evil hotel tycoon dude who was on a break from villainy got into my ear and told me to own my past and hold my head up high.
10:51The evil hotel tycoon dude's Paul Robinson.
10:54We know.
10:55We know.
10:56But it was surprisingly good advice and so I wanted to pay it forward.
11:01Look, it's really sweet that you're trying to help.
11:05But this is different.
11:06I don't want to hide forever.
11:08I just want some time out then.
11:10Hmm.
11:11Every girl here knows the importance of saying what I want and what I don't want.
11:16And that's what I'm doing right now.
11:18Okay.
11:19I'm not telling you to stay in school.
11:22That's not what this is.
11:24I just wanted to talk to you.
11:27Do you want to start with what happened today?
11:32Do you have any idea who did it?
11:34Because I have a can of hairspray at the ready.
11:40You look amazing for your age.
11:44This is nothing compared to when I was younger.
11:47I used to turn heads.
11:50I bet you did.
11:52People used to call me, I don't know, vain.
11:56Shallow even.
11:57But I wore it as a badge of honour.
12:00I was proud to be pretty.
12:02And you still should be proud.
12:04I don't know.
12:05Every time I look in the mirror all I see are wrinkles.
12:08I do my best to keep myself nice but it's not the same.
12:12I used to feel pretty too.
12:15Before my accident.
12:17I was burnt in a fire.
12:19And my body...
12:22I'm just not really sure who I am anymore.
12:24Oh sweetheart.
12:25I know it sounds petty because I should just be grateful to be alive.
12:29And it could have been worse.
12:32But...
12:33It's how you feel.
12:37I understand completely.
12:42Do you still think about how Heath died?
12:44Yeah.
12:49All the time.
12:54It gets easier though.
12:57The nightmares have stopped and I'm not so anxious.
13:01Trauma might have changed my life but it didn't stop me from living it.
13:05I'm really glad it's that way for you but...
13:09I can't see myself ever being okay again.
13:14I just wish this never happened.
13:21I'm so sorry babe.
13:27You can't change the past.
13:30And you can't control what people think of you.
13:35But you can control what you think of yourself.
13:39If I could give you one piece of advice...
13:42It would be to have compassion for you.
13:46Just like with me and Heath.
13:49This was an accident.
13:51And we're survivors.
13:53This wasn't our fault.
14:04It's her fault.
14:08You can't read me.
14:14Thomas' temperature is climbing.
14:16And with his weak reflexes there's a possibility it's listeriosis.
14:20What does that mean?
14:22It's a bacterial infection.
14:24But if caught early enough it should be easily treated with no long-term effects.
14:27And if not?
14:28It can lead to more serious conditions, such as sepsis or meningitis.
14:35How would he have gotten this?
14:37Oh, there's no way to really know.
14:39But our focus now is on treatment.
14:41I've ordered tests.
14:42As soon as results come in, we can treat accordingly.
14:44If it's what we think it is,
14:46we'll administer high-dose antibiotics,
14:48which should stave off the infection within 24 hours.
14:51And then he'll be okay?
14:55There's no way to really know until then.
14:58I don't know.
15:10My best friend in my youth, Sarah.
15:12She never embraced her beauty.
15:15She was always on the sidelines.
15:17I mean, always the photographer.
15:19Never the one to pose.
15:21She was shy?
15:22No, she was shamed.
15:24Her mother thought that vanity was a sin.
15:27So she kept chipping away at Sarah's self-confidence.
15:31Until eventually, I flipped.
15:34And I said,
15:35Mother, my looks are nothing to be ashamed of.
15:39They are my superpower.
15:41And from that point forward, I never let anybody clip my wings again.
15:48Do you realise you slipped into first-person pronouns halfway through?
15:51I suppose you've heard stories about old Nan Mangle.
16:00The point of the story is, you know, life is too damn short to worry about what other people think.
16:08Embrace your beauty and your scars and all.
16:11Maybe Sarah will embrace her wrinkles in solidarity.
16:16Maybe.
16:18Hello.
16:19Hello, trouble.
16:20I know I was in the area and I thought, if you're ready, I might escort you home.
16:24Oh, thank you.
16:25That would be wonderful.
16:26I am so lucky to have met so many wonderful people in such a short time.
16:36You're not so bad yourself.
16:37Oh, hey.
16:42I knew it.
16:43I knew Darcy was lying.
16:45Uh-huh.
16:46He's trying to pull the wool over our eyes.
16:47Right.
16:49Susan, I'm talking to you here.
16:50This is important.
16:51Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry.
16:52I'm reading Agnes' manuscript.
16:54It's fascinating.
16:55I think Darcy's behaviour warrants more attention than Agnes' manuscript.
16:59Darcy was right.
17:00We were being unfair.
17:01We do have personal relationships with the residents.
17:03Just, just let it go.
17:05Oh.
17:06Oh.
17:07Hi.
17:08Hello, Lily.
17:09With an apology gift.
17:10Oh.
17:11I'm sorry that I was so snippy with you about my mother.
17:14She, ugh, just gets all so riled up.
17:17Oh, no need for apologies.
17:19I do understand how difficult family dynamics can be.
17:22Shall we go outside and have a glass of that?
17:24Oh.
17:25Sure.
17:27I mean, I know I should be using this time to reconnect with my mum,
17:30but, oh, it's so difficult.
17:32Oh, well, you know, if you ever need to do that,
17:34you're in a room.
17:35Thanks for having me do this.
17:36I'm sure, Oli doesn't know.
17:37I mean, I should be.
17:38Hi, welcome.
17:39How are you doing this?
17:40How are you doing this?
17:41How are you doing this?
17:42I mean, my name is that law is so good.
17:43I love you.
17:44How are you doing this?
17:45What are you doing this?
17:46How are you doing this?
17:47I mean, I know I'm not talking to you.
17:48That's my because I didn't have any other things.
17:49Holly was right I shouldn't make my life smaller just because people don't understand
18:05it was an accident and I'm a survivor I'm gonna go to school tomorrow
18:12just when I thought I couldn't get any prouder of you
18:16Paul hi what okay I'll be there soon that was Paul Thomas is in hospital yeah just

19:27Okay, position's vacant.
19:57Location, um, great working conditions, yeah, scope for advancement, okay, okay, yeah, hi, just calling about the advertised position.
20:27Yeah, just wanted some additional information on the role.
20:32Here we go.
20:34Tea?
20:35Oh, I wouldn't say no.
20:36Oh, make yourself at home.
20:42Um, this morning, did you realise that you called me Peter?
20:47Did I?
20:48Hmm.
20:50That was your husband's name, wasn't it?
20:52Yes, yes, he's always on my mind.
20:56Maybe that explains the slip of the tongue.
21:00I miss my Darcy so much.
21:04Oh, look, I was wondering whether you could help me with some life admin work.
21:10Susan wants my BSB number.
21:12Could you find it?
21:13Oh, yeah, absolutely.
21:15Not that there's much of a nest egg there.
21:19Maybe enough for a couple of years here and the odd mani-pedi.
21:23Won't be raining money on my family when I carc it.
21:27Oh, yeah.
21:28Oh.
21:54Would you still like me if I'm poor?
21:56Oh, I like you very much.
22:11Remy's confirmed that it is listeriosis.
22:13The doctors are hoping they've gotten onto it early enough to avoid lifelong repercussions.
22:19Yeah, so the next 24 hours are really critical.
22:21Oh.
22:22Oh, I'm really sorry.
22:25The hospital has a strict policy.
22:27Until he's out of the woods, it's only two visitors at a time.
22:29Coming up on Neighbours.
22:49This Chelsea situation, it's got to be challenging, right?
22:52Do you want to be the jealous girlfriend?
22:54What's going on?
22:54Maybe it's got something to do with the job hunt.
22:57Wait, what are you talking about?
22:58The resort that we were staying at sends a gift voucher since we have to cut the honeymoon
23:01short.
23:02Nothing but the best for my mates.
23:03Yeah, not all of it.
23:04Yeah, this thing's cool.
