00:00Previously on Neighbours
00:02I'm, uh, I'm here alone.
00:04Yeah, me too.
00:05I have been single for some time now.
00:09I picked up a new side hustle.
00:11But let's keep that on the down low.
00:13Well, Romans is not the father of your baby, Chelsea.
00:15I am.
00:16Tell me exactly how much it's gonna cost me to keep you quiet.
00:19I was wondering if you'd like to try having Thomas overnight again.
00:22Sure, anytime.
00:23I just wanted to see if you're okay with Theresa's decision
00:26to only extend Darcy's lease short term.
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 need to have a new face
01:10Whew!
01:13Oh!
01:17I think I fell asleep.
01:19Who are these people?
01:24Mm-hmm.
01:25Are you married?
01:28Do you have a partner and a kid?
01:30Um, no.
01:32I mean, I mean, yes.
01:34Colton, just let me explain.
01:38Explain.
01:39How I've spent the whole day opening up to you about my life.
01:42My cheating ex.
01:44And now I find out that you have a whole family you're hiding.
01:47My husband's dead.
01:48Our daughter is at home in Melbourne with her mum.
02:01I'm so sorry.
02:02Melvin.
02:03I thought you said you were from Sydney.
02:16I'm not.
02:17And I'm not even a flight attendant.
02:26My name's not Charlie.
02:29It's Aaron.
02:31I lied about all of it.
02:32Ah, well, it's official.
02:33I have a month off from last week.
02:34Oh, great.
02:35Byron's gonna manage the vineyard as well.
02:36Perfect.
02:37Okay, so your meeting has a Mac in Paris.
02:38Is that where you're gonna have the wedding to?
02:39Actually, we're gonna renew my vows in Rome.
02:40Yeah, followed by a tour of the continent.
02:41Oh, okay.
02:42Well, I'll just take my couple jealousy out the door.
02:44Bye.
02:45See ya.
02:46What's up?
02:47You're supposed to be happy.
02:48Oh, no.
02:49It's all right.
02:50My husband's just here.
02:51What's up.
02:52I'm happy.
02:54You're supposed to be happy.
02:55Bye.
02:56See you.
02:57You're supposed to be happy.
02:58Oh, well, I'll just take my cup of jealousy out the door.
03:01Bye.
03:02See ya.
03:07stressed to be happy? I am. It's just for a while there I didn't think that we'd
03:14get back to this. And I'm not taking it for granted. I want you to know that.
03:21Neither am I.
03:37You seem very settled here. Yeah I am. Okay, so why did you knock back Darcy's request for
03:56a longer lease then? Who told you that? He told Chelsea and Chelsea told me. That's exactly
04:06why I want a short lease. I have to protect Nell and myself. My God, Chelsea's a piece
04:11of work. That's probably her now. It's Max actually. He wants to discuss a project he's
04:19working on. I'm sorry darling. That was really unfair. You haven't done anything
04:29wrong. Thanks for the fun. I'll call you next time I'm in town. Please do.
04:56So is there anything else I can help with? I think that's pretty much it. But thanks
05:05so much. I couldn't finish it off without you.
05:08Oh, hi. I'll, uh, I'll link you to it. Hey. Hello. Oh, you sleep. Hi. So, you know how
05:21we've been talking about you having Thomas overnight? Mm-hmm. What if tonight was the
05:28night? Oh, I mean, I'm asking because I have a date lined up and if all goes well, I might
05:35not get home till very late. All right. Well, I mean, I'm always happy to have him but, um,
05:40I have to check with Therese. No, of course. I'd hate to disrupt her evening if she already
05:46had plans. Mm-hmm. I don't know how you go. Okay.
05:52Hey, mate. Hey. Is she making worse on you again? Oh, no. Come on. She knows nothing's
06:03ever going to happen again. Besides, she just told me that she's on a hot date tonight.
06:08Well, she's probably just saying that to make you jealous. It doesn't matter. I don't have
06:12any feelings for her anymore. Yeah, everything is fine, okay? Mm-hmm. Anyway, what's this I
06:18hear about you and Krista going up to Europe? Oh, well, since Aaron's on our honeymoon,
06:22it got us thinking about a redo. Oh, really? Good for you. Well, why should
06:27you have all the fun, eh? Exactly.
06:48Why'd you lie, Aaron?
07:14Why'd you lie, Aaron?
07:16I mean, I get that it must be hard to talk about your husband, but the rest of it...
07:29I guess I just felt like being someone else for a day. Whenever I have to tell someone
07:35about David, I then have to go and tell the whole story and inevitably it comes back and
07:41bites me. Just the grief. I mean, I've tried dating and it doesn't work. I just keep messing
07:54up. I don't know how to be Aaron without David. It just felt easier to invent a whole new life
08:07for myself.
08:09Except I wasn't in on the joke. No, no, no, no. It wasn't a joke. Colton, honestly, I had
08:14so much fun with you today. Look, is there any way we can salvage this?
08:22You just met. Yeah, I know. You don't owe me anything. I know, but I like you. I like you too.
08:35You know, I don't just hop into bed with anyone that I meet. Yeah, well maybe we can, I don't
08:40know, we can catch up later and start again.
08:45I wish you all the best Darren. This is a small island. If you see me coming, please walk
08:59the other way.
09:15It would just be us and Del for quite a minute. Ah, yeah, about that. Um, Chelsea's actually
09:20going on a date tonight and that's excellent news for us because she was hoping that we'd
09:25look after Thomas for the night. I know it's short notice, but come on, we did say that we
09:29were both happy to have him again. Besides, you're such a good mother and a stepmother that,
09:33you know, I just want Thomas to spend more time with you. You don't have to butter me up, Paul.
09:38I'm just speaking the truth. But listen, if you're not up to her, I'll just call Chelsea,
09:42it's fine. No, let's do it. Yeah? Yeah. Thanks again for listening. Yeah, of course.
09:55Who is that? This is my driver. I saw you hug her though. What about the money? I also saw you
10:13by the lake earlier. I'm guessing she paid you as well. Is this your side hustle? Come on, what is it?
10:20What is it? Well, if you really have to know, I'm a personal clothes shopper.
10:33What do you know about women's clothing? Excuse me? Style is style. There is no gender boundaries.
10:41Well, if that's all it is, why can't you just be honest about it? Because I signed an exclusive
10:48contract with the piano bar and said I wouldn't work anywhere else. So I need you to keep quiet.
10:56Don't worry, Uncle Tay. Have your secrets safe with me. Thanks, bro.
11:03That should be enough to get you through the night. Oh, hi.
11:17Looking forward to minding the baby. Can't wait. It's been so much fun.
11:26You really should get going. You don't want to miss out on this amazing date of yours.
11:32I'm desperate for some adult company. But if there are any problems at all with Thomas,
11:38please don't hesitate to call. We'll be back in a flash.
11:41Yeah, I think we're well prepared this time, aren't we, little guy, eh?
11:45Yeah. He has all of us to help take care of him. I doubt we'll need you at all.
11:54Okay, then. Come on, my little honey. You'll be brave for Daddy.
12:04See you. Yeah, bye.
12:06Yeah, bye.
12:11Look at that.
12:13Look at that.
12:15Look at that.
12:16Look at that.
12:17Dad.
12:18I'm sorry, Vera, but that's not really in my job description.
12:36It says on your badge you're an assistant.
12:39Yeah, it does, but that doesn't mean I'm your personal assistant. I'm sort of here to help everybody.
12:43I'm sorry. If you'll excuse me, I've got to go set up the rec room for line dancing.
12:50There goes my chance for Ron and Darryl.
12:54You know, they've only just moved in.
12:56And with blokes being in short supply around here, I need a new sexy outfit to stand out from the crowd.
13:02What?
13:03So, tripping around the shopping malls on my own carrying all those bags, it plays havoc with my sciatica.
13:11And since your mean-spirited brother won't help me, I don't stand a chance.
13:20What if I told you you could pay someone to help you?
13:23Oh, yes.
13:36Heard about your side hustle.
13:38And I want a piece of the action.
13:42Mira!
13:43Hey!
13:45I don't know what you're talking about.
13:47And I'm unavailable for literally anything anyways.
13:51Oh, I know that's not true.
13:54So don't play coy with me.
13:56I am a desperate woman with desperate needs.
14:02Hey, Olga Tay.
14:03I talked to call you, but you won't pick up the phone.
14:07As you can see, Vera here is very excited to hire you as her personal shopper.
14:12I know I wasn't supposed to tell anyone, but I thought after you spent so much on the sneakers, I couldn't pay you by getting you some extra work.
14:22What are you doing first thing tomorrow?
14:24Good, because I need to hit the mall the second it opens.
14:27I wouldn't mind having another little brother.
14:39I could brainwash him just so much because of the library.
14:43Uh, yeah, as long as you don't show him berserk until he's much, much older because it'll just give him nightmares.
14:47No, you actually know your stuff.
14:50Yeah, what can I say?
14:52Just G-rated stuff, I promise.
14:55Good.
14:56Hey, darling.
14:58I was wondering after dinner, how do you feel about helping me give Thomas a bath?
15:00He just loves the water.
15:02Oh, they usually do at that age.
15:04I used to love giving kids baths.
15:07They're splashing and squealing.
15:08Cuteness overload.
15:09Yeah, so I'd take that as a yes?
15:11Yeah, yeah, I'd love to.
15:12Good.
15:15Hey, did you hear that, babe?
15:16Bop-bop.
15:24You're late.
15:26There's been no deposit into my bank account.
15:28I don't have the money yet.
15:30Trust funds take time to set up.
15:32I'm running out of patience, Chelsea.
15:33I want my money.
15:34There isn't any.
15:35You'll just have to wait.
15:37Do you want me to tell Paul?
15:40You have until tomorrow to get me my first payment.
15:44If you don't, the world you've worked so hard to build will come crashing down.
15:52Hey, Chelsea.
15:54Uh, are you okay?
15:56Was that very hassle on you?
15:58He just wanted to buy me a drink and, um, didn't react kindly when I told him I wasn't interested.
16:04Oh, what'd he say exactly?
16:09So much for checking in.
16:12It's nothing I can't handle.
16:13Yeah, you just seem a little, uh, rattled.
16:16Do you want some company?
16:17Again, thank you.
16:19But no.
16:20Yeah.
16:21Yeah.
16:30Yeah, poor Urs.
16:31He deserves a holiday romance.
16:33It sucks it went south.
16:34I know.
16:35I feel like he's not having any luck in that department.
16:37Mm.
16:39Do you think our honeymoon is cursed?
16:42Are we asking for trouble by doing this redo plan?
16:44No way.
16:46Look, this right here is the opposite of a curse.
16:49You know, what I love about us is no matter what happens, we get through it together and we come off better.
16:56Mr. and Mrs. Tanaka met it together.
17:02Exactly.
17:04You ready to shop till you drop?
17:06Ready as I'll ever be.
17:09Führer?
17:10What are you doing here?
17:12Uh, is it for an inspection?
17:13The place is kind of a mess.
17:15Oh no, don't be silly.
17:17I'm just hanging out with my good friend Tay.
17:20You got a problem with that?
17:22Uh, no, no, no problem.
17:28See ya.
17:30See?
17:32Your secret side hustle's safe with me.
17:35He won't suspect a thing.
17:37Let's just get going.
17:38Before you do, I need you to take my precise measurements.
17:45Well, you're my personal shopper, are you not?
17:49Well, do your job.
17:50Do your job.
17:52Yes.
17:55Ma'am.
17:59How was little Thomas?
18:01A little bundle of joy.
18:02You know, it was a dream.
18:04Thank you for bringing him over.
18:05Ah, pleasure.
18:06See ya.
18:07Cheers, guys.
18:10Will you be okay if he comes over again?
18:14Yeah, of course.
18:16It's just, you know, I got the feeling that you're not really that enthused.
18:21Oh, Paul.
18:23Thomas is a beautiful, easy baby.
18:25And watching Noah play with him last night and seeing how happy you were.
18:30It was really lovely.
18:32But?
18:34But he's still Chelsea's baby.
18:37And every time I see him, I'm reminded of everything that I'm never going to be able to give you.
18:45You know what?
18:47Because I love you.
18:49I will eventually love him like you do.
18:52I promise.
18:54Hey, listen.
18:55Why don't we go and have a yum cha?
18:56You haven't done that for a while.
18:58I promise Susan I'll pop in for a coffee.
19:00Oh, okay.
19:01Well, don't talk about me too much.
19:02No, try not to.
19:04Bye, darling.
19:06Hey, Paul.
19:08Oh, good afternoon.
19:09Hey.
19:10What did you get out and about so early?
19:11Ah, yeah.
19:12I had to get out of the house.
19:13Ah, cheers.
19:14Ah, what brings you to the street?
19:15Ah, just dropping Thomas off.
19:16Had him over so he could free Chelsea up a bit.
19:18Yeah.
19:19Yeah, I, um, I saw her at the pub.
19:22She didn't seem like she was having a great one.
19:25Yeah, I walked in and she was in the middle of an argument with, um, some bald guy.
19:29She was on a date?
19:30Not that I could tell.
19:31Ah, she seemed super uncomfortable and he didn't stay for too long.
19:39That's my entire life savings.
19:42So until the trust fund's set up, don't ask for any more.
19:48If you want to become the new Mrs. Robinson, keep it coming.
20:10Max told me that he saw you on your date last night.
20:13Said that you were arguing with a bald guy.
20:16Sounded a lot like Jeffrey.
20:20And now here he is again.
20:24Care to fill in the blanks, Chelsea?
20:25So, I happened to glance out my window this morning when I saw you coming out of your house, getting into your car with none other than...
20:38Vera Punt?
20:39Ah!
20:40Are you having a fling?
20:42It's kind of a long story.
20:46But it's all about helping JJ.
20:48What?
20:49Well, I saw you telling Vera yesterday that you couldn't take her clothes shopping because it wasn't in your job description.
20:53Oh, yeah, yeah.
20:54No, she would not stop hassling me.
20:57Yeah.
20:58Well, when I told Tay about it, he decided to take some heat off you by offering to do it himself.
21:03Did you take Vera clothes shopping for me?
21:05That, and it helped me score points with the landlord. Win-win.
21:08I will take that.
21:09That's absolutely not what I was expecting, but that was a genuinely nice gesture.
21:14So, what clothes did Vera buy?
21:17I'm thinking like a full-length, black-brown, kind of sequin number.
21:22How did you know?
21:24Because I'm cropping an eye hole right now.
21:29You helped Vera buy that.
21:32Well, there was a lot of zipping and unzipping until we found the right one, but...
21:39She looks amazing.
21:40And she's pulling two blokes at once.
21:42Go Vera!
21:51Chelsea, I can tell you're lying about your date.
21:54And to be honest, whatever you do with Geoffrey in your spare time, I really couldn't care less.
21:59But I can't and will not tolerate him being anywhere near my son.
22:04Now, I'm on the birth certificate and I am holding up my end, which I think entitles me to a say.
22:12Now, I mean it, Chelsea.
22:14If you expose that beautiful, innocent child to anybody like Geoffrey, I will call in the lawyer so quick your head will spit.
22:24He's not yours.
22:26What?
22:27Thomas.
22:38His biological father is Geoffrey.
22:40Coming up on Neighbours.
22:41Are you going to tell me what's going on?
22:42What happened with Paul?
22:43I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt you.
22:44Oh, please.
22:45You know, you say you've changed, but you're the same creep I heard about growing up.
22:46I need to warn you.
22:47This meeting is a trap.
22:48Don't you follow me!
22:49Don't you follow me!
22:50Don't you follow me!
22:51Don't you follow me!
22:52What happened with Paul?
22:53I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt.
22:55Oh, please.
22:56You know, you say you've changed,
22:57but you're the same creep I heard about growing up.
22:59I need to warn you.
23:00This meeting is a trap.
23:02Don't you follow me!
23:04Don't you follow me!
