Transcript
00:01Closer each day
00:04Home and away
00:08Honey!
00:09Are you okay?
00:14Hey, wake up, Theo.
00:15Sonny is the reason Theo got into this mess.
00:18I can't deal with you right now.
00:19No, mate, you're not going anywhere.
00:20I've got something to say to you.
00:21All right, please.
00:24How bad is it?
00:25He clearly took a severe beating.
00:27We'll know more after the scans.
00:29Thanks for staying.
00:30You've stayed a lot longer than you should have.
00:32I'll come check on you tomorrow.
00:35I thought I wasn't going to see you again.
00:37I couldn't stay away.
00:39I appreciate you finally doing the white thing,
00:41but you are not to visit Theo again.
00:44I just don't care why she hasn't been back.
00:46Will you just forget about her for five minutes?
00:48How can I do that?
00:49I know she made a statement against Gage,
00:51but he's behind bars.
00:52It doesn't stop him from getting the river voice
00:54to do his dirty work.
00:56You're actually dumb enough to think
00:57I'm going to lead him to a witness.
00:58Are Sonny and Theo in danger?
00:59Look, they're not the primary target,
01:01but that could change once Theo is well enough
01:02to make a statement.
01:03So let's just all stay vigilant, okay?
01:15Okay, so your blood work looks good
01:16and the internal bleeding seems to have resolved itself,
01:18which is what we were hoping for.
01:20No, you can just say it, Doc.
01:21I'm a marvel of modern medicine.
01:23I'm still sending you formal scans
01:24just to make sure that everything's headed
01:25in the right direction.
01:26Well, there's no need.
01:27I feel great.
01:28Why can't you just discharge me?
01:29Does it suck that much being here?
01:30Yeah.
01:31Although there are some compensations.
01:33Your bedside manner,
01:34it's a smile on my dad.
01:35Yeah, I can see you're feeling better.
01:36Hey, what are you doing?
01:37I'm just proving to Dana that I'm fit.
01:38Idiot!
01:39Idiot.
01:40Go back to bed.
01:41I like a woman that takes control.
01:42Yeah, well, clearly you need one.
01:43Oh, I...
01:45Ah, so no one taught you to walk before you could run, hey?
01:48No, I skipped class that day
01:49and probably quite a few other days.
01:51Hey, Dana, can you get onto imaging
01:53and organise that scan?
01:54Yeah, sure.
02:00Okay, so is that a thing now?
02:02Uh, maybe. Hopefully.
02:04Okay, I thought that you had your hands full
02:06with the River Boys.
02:08Do you think it's dumb that I gave a statement
02:10against the guy who beat me up?
02:14What?
02:16Well, I thought it was brave.
02:19I'm sure the River Boys will see it that way as well.
02:24Okay, I want you to take a deep breath in.
02:26Try and touch your chest to my hand.
02:28You hold it and exhale.
02:32Theo.
02:33How much longer is this going to take?
02:35We're barely halfway through.
02:36No.
02:37I'm done.
02:38Hey, you said you were going to give this
02:39a second chance.
02:40Yeah, well, I'm tired.
02:43And I'm in pain, man.
02:45These lung exercises are important, okay?
02:47You have to build your strength back up again.
02:48I don't care about your dumb breathing exercises.
02:50What do you care about?
02:53Forget it.
02:55These dumb breathing exercises matter.
02:57Okay?
02:58Your lungs aren't working at full capacity.
03:00That puts you at high risk of contracting
03:01a serious respiratory illness.
03:03You think you're in pain now?
03:04Wait until you're breathing off a ventilator with pneumonia.
03:09Are you trying to scare me?
03:10No.
03:11I'm not.
03:13I'm just trying to figure out what's really going on here.
03:17Anyone can pick themselves up again.
03:20It's rude.
03:21She's very strong.
03:22Well, normally I'd agree with you, but this is really shaking her up.
03:26Yeah.
03:27Poor thing.
03:28She's so invested in Eliza.
03:31But knowing your daughter, she will want to try again.
03:33Yeah, nothing that's else a worry.
03:36What happens if she keeps going with this fostering caper
03:38and it all goes down the gurgler again?
03:41Well, not every child in foster care is like Eliza.
03:44I know that.
03:45I'm not saying there aren't heaps of decent kids out there
03:48who deserve a loving home.
03:50Isn't that what we're trying to provide?
03:52Well, yeah, it is.
03:53But after what Eliza put us all through,
03:56I reckon we all need a bit of a time out.
03:58How was your morning?
04:03Good news.
04:04Sonny's scans came back clear,
04:05so he's being discharged later today.
04:08Bet he's stoked.
04:10I think he's a bit worried.
04:12Did he say something?
04:14You know, underneath all the jokes and the bravado,
04:18I reckon he's scared of payback.
04:20Good.
04:21Shows he's still got a brain in there.
04:23Well, from a medical perspective,
04:24he shouldn't really be on his own,
04:26not until he's fully recovered.
04:28This place is hardly an option,
04:29not with Riverboys camp down the front.
04:31There's a room at my place.
04:32No.
04:34Okay, well, I'm pretty sure
04:35you wouldn't dream of kissing me again.
04:36I wasn't gonna go there.
04:38Okay, then what?
04:39I am not gonna risk having you involved in this.
04:42That's really sweet.
04:44I'm just not sure where it leaves Sonny.
04:48Me neither.
04:50Breathe in.
04:53Yeah, hold it.
04:54Hold it.
04:56And out.
04:58Good.
05:00So you're worried this girl might be in serious danger?
05:03Yeah, she must be.
05:05She crossed the guy that put me in here.
05:08I assume cash is all over this?
05:11Yeah.
05:13But I haven't heard anything new in days.
05:16So, are you and Lacey together?
05:18I don't know.
05:20I don't know.
05:21Well, technically.
05:24You wanna be?
05:25Mm.
05:27And does she feel the same way?
05:29Yeah, she does.
05:31Which is why she wouldn't just ghost me.
05:35If she was safe, she'd find a way to contact me.
05:40Sounds like a rough situation.
05:43But I think your priority needs to be getting out of here first.
05:48It would be a lot easier if I knew she was okay.
05:51Yeah.
05:55Look, you've done really well.
05:57Rest up.
05:58I'm gonna check him when I can.
06:00Thanks, Doc.
06:02How is he?
06:07Oh, great.
06:08Still refusing to do the physio?
06:09No, we actually got through quite a bit.
06:11It's his headspace that I'm worried about.
06:14He's concerned about this girl, Lacey.
06:16Of course he is.
06:18Guys, I have to keep moving, I'm sorry.
06:19Thanks, Doc.
06:22There's gotta be a way that we can get in touch with her.
06:24Uh, no.
06:25We are not doing that.
06:26Hey, hey, hey.
06:27It's for Theo's peace of mind.
06:28I...
06:30What?
06:31What?
06:32Well, when she came to see him,
06:34I told her never to contact him again.
06:37How could you do that?
06:38What?
06:39I was protecting my nephew.
06:40What?
06:58They really are your shadow, mate.
06:59Yeah, they're taking shifts or something.
07:00It's so creepy.
07:01You know, honestly, I've almost forgotten over there.
07:02What can I do for you guys?
07:03So, Sunny has been discharged from hospital today.
07:04Yeah, I'm just gonna get up to the chase.
07:05Can you offer police protection?
07:06Why?
07:07Has there been a threat?
07:08Well, no, but I'm sure those idiots are planning something.
07:11I can see that Sunny's really worried about it.
07:13Have they turned up at the hospital?
07:14No, not that I'm aware.
07:15Is there anything you can do?
07:16Look, I can't act unless there's been a threat.
07:17Listen, Sunny should be okay.
07:18It's Lacey they're after for making a statement against Gage.
07:19Sunny's just testifying against a lower ranking gang member.
07:20Right.
07:21So, just get a little bit of payback then?
07:22Yeah.
07:23Yeah.
07:24I'm just gonna get up to the chase.
07:25Can you offer police protection?
07:26Why, has there been a threat?
07:27Well, no, but I'm sure those idiots are planning something.
07:28I can see that Sunny's really worried about it.
07:29Have they turned up at the hospital?
07:30No, not that I'm aware.
07:31Is there anything you can do?
07:32Look, I can't act unless there's been a threat.
07:35Listen, Sunny should be okay.
07:37It's Lacey they're after for making a statement against Gage.
07:39Sunny's just testifying against a lower ranking gang member.
07:41Right.
07:42So, just get a little bit of payback then, or...?
07:44Sorry, can't help.
07:46It's all good.
07:47Thanks anyway.
07:48See ya.
07:51Hmm.
07:52So what now?
07:53Well, you get to enjoy your afternoon.
07:56Yes, but what are you gonna do about Sunny?
07:58I reckon I can sort something out.
08:07I haven't done anything wrong.
08:08Well, if you believe that, why did you hide it from me too?
08:10You know what, Justin?
08:11Even if you don't agree with me, I just need you to be on the same page.
08:15He's in no state to hear this by now.
08:17He is in there tying himself in knots, wondering what happened to the girl.
08:20Yeah?
08:21You've gotta be seeing that.
08:22You need to go in there and put his mind at rest.
08:31Hey, Lace.
08:32It's me again.
08:34Just, just call me back.
08:36I need to know that you're safe.
08:41Good on you for getting your physio done, man.
08:43Thanks.
08:44Hungry?
08:46No, no.
08:47Maybe later.
08:50What's up?
08:55You know I love you.
08:56But you have to understand that you have put us through hell.
09:00I know.
09:01I'm sorry.
09:02I was only trying to protect you.
09:06What do you mean?
09:08There's a reason you haven't heard from Lacey.
09:11When she came to visit you, I asked her never to contact you again.
09:15You what?
09:16Well, you had your best interests at home.
09:17Yeah.
09:18So I should be grateful?
09:19I can't believe you said...
09:20Oh, I see you.
09:21Yeah.
09:22Yeah.
09:23Just call a doctor again.
09:24No, just back off.
09:26You've got enough.
09:32What sort of picnic hamper?
09:35Just, you know, regular one with all the trimmings.
09:37Marilyn special.
09:39Oh, is that for a special occasion?
09:40No, no, no.
09:41Just for a patient sick of being in a hospital bed.
09:44Right.
09:45You did this for all your patients?
09:48Yep, yep.
09:49Every last one.
09:50Not buying that.
09:51So is there a romance on the horizon?
09:53Oh, I think it's a little too soon to say.
09:55Right.
09:56So one special Mads Hamper?
09:58Yes.
09:59Coming out.
10:00Thank you very much.
10:01Bye.
10:02You just look after yourself, eh, love?
10:04Right on.
10:05Take care.
10:07How's Roo doing?
10:09Well, she's been put through the wringer.
10:11Her and Harper have been stuck in meetings all morning.
10:14And where is Eliza now?
10:16I don't know.
10:18It's all very sad.
10:20Yeah.
10:21Roo's got a couple of big days to get through yet.
10:23I just hope she can hold it together.
10:26I think you might be right, Mr Stewart.
10:28I think she's going to have to take a break from all this fostering.
10:31Eh, well, we can talk about all that when she gets back.
10:34In the meantime, life goes on, eh?
10:37The bait shop might run itself.
10:39See ya.
10:40Okay.
10:41Bye.
10:44You lied to me.
10:46For days.
10:48And you know how stressed I am about Lacey.
10:50Yeah, well, it's not like we have any information about her.
10:53Do you have any idea what we've been through?
10:56We thought that you were going to die.
10:58And that's all her fault.
11:00No, it's not her fault.
11:01Liz, you've got a good point.
11:03You have been making some lousy choices lately.
11:06My choices, not Lacey's.
11:09Look, it doesn't matter.
11:13I just need to know that she's safe.
11:15Hey, that's a heap of food.
11:16Hey, yeah, apparently it's a full house at mine.
11:17Tana's over with the baby.
11:18Cute.
11:19You're welcome to join if you want.
11:20Thank you, but I'm actually eating for a serve.
11:21Fair enough.
11:22Have fun.
11:23You too.
11:24Hi.
11:25Um, did you hear about Sonny's scans?
11:26Uh, yeah, all clear.
11:27In fact, he's probably being discharged now.
11:28Right.
11:29Well, what's all this?
11:30Oh, it's just a surprise picnic.
11:31With wine.
11:32Yeah, okay.
11:33This is a date.
11:34Is this for Sonny?
11:35Why would you say that?
11:36Well, you weren't exactly such an earlier.
11:37Well, I know.
11:38My flirt game's turned up to 11 at the moment.
11:40Look, no.
11:41This is honestly because he is just complaining about the food so much,
11:42So then I thought I would surprise him.
11:44And then now I have to go surprise him wherever he's staying.
11:45Do you know where that is?
11:46I know.
11:47Do you know where that is?
11:48I know?
11:49I don't know.
11:50I don't know.
11:51I haven't watched.
11:52I don't know.
11:53There's nothing at this point.
11:54I don't know.
11:55It's not just a surprise picnic.
11:56I don't know anything.
11:57In fact, he's probably being discharged now.
11:59Right.
12:00What's all this?
12:01Oh, it's just a surprise picnic?
12:02With wine.
12:03Yeah.
12:04Okay, this is a date.
12:05Is this for Sonny?
12:06I don't know where he's staying, but I can give you his number.
12:10Oh.
12:12Yes.
12:13Yeah, please.
12:15I thought you were dying to get out of here.
12:17Yeah, I am, believe me, but I want to see Theo first.
12:19Just check in.
12:20Well, don't expect a warm welcome from Justin.
12:22Sorry, I've got these guys to protect me.
12:24That's not why I hired them.
12:25I'm grateful, man, but I do think it's overkill.
12:28No, there's no such thing right now.
12:30No.
12:31What's going on?
12:33Sonny's been discharged.
12:34Um, how's Theo?
12:37Uh, now's not a good time to visit.
12:40There's a surprise.
12:41No, look, it's not that.
12:43I took my anger out on you, and that wasn't fair.
12:49And, uh, I'm sorry for getting Theo into this mess as well.
12:53These two with you?
12:55Yeah, we're just being careful.
12:56We have a chance the River Boys will come after Sonny.
12:59I mean, Cash's got his hands full trying to protect Lacey,
13:02so I had to get private security.
13:03Wait, what did you say about Lacey?
13:17Yeah, mate, they're a private security company.
13:19Okay?
13:20Highly recommended.
13:22You don't think this is overkill, do you?
13:24Yeah, that's what I thought.
13:25Better to be safe than sorry.
13:27Cool.
13:28Yeah, I'll send you the details.
13:29Cheers, mate.
13:29I didn't realise I'm going to be bored within five minutes being stuck here.
13:33Yeah, well, read a book or something.
13:34Do you know me at all?
13:35Sonny, you need to stay out of sight.
13:38I'm just a little worried that one of these guys is going to want to share my bed with
13:41me, and I'm not ready for that level of commitment.
13:43Take this serious.
13:45Okay.
13:46Believe me, I've got enough bruises in my body to take the River Boys very seriously.
13:49Good.
13:50We'll be right outside.
13:52And no, we won't be sharing a bed.
13:54I'm actually a little disappointed.
13:59Hey, is there any room service in this place?
14:01I'm dying for a decent meal.
14:02I'll get you some supplies.
14:04Maybe even a book.
14:06Hey, Rem.
14:07Yeah.
14:07Thanks for looking out for me.
14:10I love you, man.
14:11But why is it taking so long?
14:28Okay.
14:29Now, listen.
14:29This unfortunate delay is putting a very important witness in danger.
14:33Okay?
14:35All right, fine.
14:35But I'm going to hold you to that.
14:37Bye.
14:39Hey.
14:39Hey.
14:39Uh, do you know that Remy's higher protection for Sonny?
14:44Yeah, mate.
14:44I heard that, yeah.
14:45You think Theo needs some too?
14:47No, no.
14:47Not at this stage.
14:48He shouldn't be in any danger.
14:49I haven't actually taken his official statement yet.
14:50Well, when are you going to do that?
14:52Soon.
14:53Soon, now that he's out at the ICU.
14:54Then what happens?
14:55Then I'm going to post police guards out the front of his door so no one's going to get
14:58to him, okay?
14:59All right.
14:59Yeah.
15:00Got your word on that?
15:01You got my word on that.
15:02Thanks, mate.
15:03Um, can I ask one more favor?
15:06Yeah.
15:06Can you tell me something about this lazy girl?
15:09Like, is she okay?
15:10Look, look, she's safe.
15:12Okay?
15:12I can tell you that.
15:13Theo is in a really bad way if I can tell him something.
15:16Yeah.
15:16Okay, look, I've got safety protocols in place.
15:18I know.
15:18I know.
15:18I know.
15:18What happened to Theo?
15:25Is he okay?
15:34You know, when you invited me over, I was not expecting a security check.
15:38Yeah, sorry.
15:39It's just wine.
15:41Wine?
15:41Good call.
15:43Okay.
15:45Great.
15:45Thanks, big fella.
15:46There'll be two of my guys outside all night.
15:49I'll see you tomorrow.
15:49Fantastic.
15:58It's nice to see you.
16:00So, bodyguards?
16:03Yeah.
16:06Okay.
16:07Truth is, I, uh, I got a secret identity.
16:10I'm actually second in line to the throne of Denmark.
16:13That's really funny.
16:14Um, but this is quite a freaky situation.
16:17Yeah, right.
16:17Okay, bad jokes.
16:18I'm sorry.
16:19Yeah, it is, because you were in the hospital for really serious assault, and now you have
16:22personal security.
16:24So, do you want to explain to me what's going on?
16:28Yeah.
16:29Uh, let's pour a glass of wine, and I'll tell you everything.
16:31Okay.
16:35Get the glasses.
16:38That was reckless.
16:39Okay, well, I had to know about Theo.
16:40This whole thing does not work if anybody outside of this station finds out that you're
16:44here.
16:44Okay, so then stop making excuses and organize a safe house already.
16:48Look, I would have let Theo know I'm okay, but your wife, she told me to stay away.
16:52Yeah.
16:53Yeah, I know.
16:54You said Theo's in a bad way.
16:56Has there been some sort of complication?
16:57What's happened?
16:58It's no medical.
16:58Well, he's in a lot of pain, but he's just really worried about you.
17:03He's going to be so relieved when I can tell you're okay.
17:05Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
17:06I feel like I'm talking to myself here.
17:08Nobody can find out about this.
17:09Yeah, no, I'm not going to lie.
17:10If there is even one leak, the whole thing falls apart.
17:14Understood?
17:14You can't tell anybody about her.
17:15Point taken.
17:16Justin, I'm not exaggerating when I say the River Boys are going to fire me on this station
17:21if they find out that she's here.
17:28I get that you're mad, but I did what I had to do.
17:33Yeah, I am.
17:34I am mad.
17:35What gives you the right to just push her away?
17:37I earned it sitting here by your bedside thinking the worst.
17:39That doesn't mean you get to dictate who I see.
17:42Leo, I made a decision to protect you, and I would do it again and again.
17:46What have you been?
17:47Okay, so I thought it would help if I went to see Cash about lacing.
17:53What did he say?
17:54Can you please stop over?
17:55I'm fine.
17:55Hey, hey, hey.
17:57She's safe.
17:58Yeah, well, how can he be sure, though?
17:59We know what Gage is capable of.
18:00No, I'm sure, mate.
18:02You're not just lying to me to get Lira off the hook?
18:03No, believe me.
18:04I just saw her myself.
18:08She's safe.
18:11Yeah, so the guys that did this to me don't know I'm here.
18:14Right.
18:15But you think that they want payback?
18:16It's a good chance, yeah.
18:18But luckily I'm two moves and two bodyguards ahead of them.
18:21Do you think it's a good idea that I'm here?
18:24Yeah, it's fine.
18:25Look, this place is safe.
18:26Trust me.
18:27Did you not see the two jiu-jitsu bouncers outside my door?
18:30Yes, I saw them.
18:31One went through my hamper.
18:32Yeah, I kind of gave off, like, a nightclub bouncer energy.
18:36Not really.
18:37No?
18:37No.
18:41Well, uh, this place is pretty sweet.
18:44Yeah, my hospital accommodation, I had one thing going for it,
18:47and then she turned up here, so it's a win-win.
18:51Oh, lucky you.
18:52Yeah.
18:53Right, your turn.
18:55Tell me what I did to deserve all this.
18:59Well, you got beaten within an inch of your life,
19:02and, you know, I'm not heartless.
19:04All right, so this is all out of pity.
19:06Mm-hmm.
19:06Mm.
19:11Hey.
19:13It's okay, I'm not letting these guys intimidate me,
19:15so don't let them intimidate you.
19:16I can't believe you went to fight that girl.
19:23You saw how stressed out Theo was.
19:26He wasn't going to snap out of that until he knew she was safe.
19:29No, if you just left it alone,
19:30you would have eventually forgotten about it.
19:32Listen, I don't believe he would have.
19:33Oh, come on, come on.
19:49We agreed you were going to switch that off.
20:01No, I need to contact Theo.
20:02No, we can't risk any leaks.
20:07What?
20:08What?
20:08Someone's left a voicemail.
20:12Yeah.
20:15Play it.
20:17You snitch.
20:18Congrats.
20:19Now you're on our hit list,
20:21and tell your boyfriend if he opens his mouth,
20:23we'll be paying him a visit at the hospital.
20:27Feel your voice?
20:29Okay, just heaps of people ready to step up for him.
20:32Okay, turn the phone off.
20:33Yeah, you don't need to be dealing with that.
20:35I've done everything I can to expediate the safe house.
20:40You two realize what's going to happen
20:41the second that Theo gives a statement, right?
20:43I said I'm going to keep him safe.
20:45That's what I'm going to do.
20:54Hey, listeners, get out of here.
20:56I'm going to come and see you, all right?
20:58You won't be able to.
20:59I'm not allowed to contact with anyone anymore,
21:02so this is goodbye.
21:03She brought this on herself and Theo.
21:06We trusted him too much.
21:08We did.
21:08That was our mistake.
21:09You say you can't trust me, hey?
21:11Well, I don't trust you either.
21:13Theo, I was just saying that we need to take better care of you.
21:15If this is you caring, I don't want it, all right?
21:18Wait, Theo.
21:19Get out!
21:20And do not come back!
