TVTranskript
00:00I was wondering if you had heard from Melanie. Where has she gone? Sharon doesn't know. Apparently
00:13Mel may have changed phone numbers too. Whatever's going on is not our business. Is this Sharon Davies?
00:18So this is your sister. I am really glad that you told me. Because now I can be there for you.
00:22She brought her kind for some work and she just never came back. It's an affirmation card. What
00:27if she's still on drugs? Two months. What have you got to show for it? I'd appreciate it
00:31if you'd reassure him. I can only do that if I know that you're taking this seriously.
00:38Neighbors. Everybody needs good neighbors. With a little understanding. You can find the perfect plan.
00:52Neighbors. Should be there for one another. That's when good neighbors need good friends.
01:11Kelly Miller? Yes, I understand confidentiality. But if you could just...
01:17That was the last rehab facility in the area. And the PI hit the same brick wall when he searched
01:26using her real name. Look, if Krista checked into a rehab facility, she would have needed money.
01:31Otherwise she'd be in the healthcare system. True. It does feel like a long shot.
01:38Oh, hey, hey. Don't get disheartened, okay? Look how far we've come in such a short time,
01:41huh? I know. What? It's Tess. She's back from Adelaide. I suppose now it's not a great time to
01:51angle for an introduction. No, I get it. Look, I will... I'll stay under the radar while she's here.
01:56Thank you. All right, it's best to get it over with.
02:04Where have you been? You've been gone for ages.
02:07Oh, um, Jasmine called about, um, the business speech in economics. Said she wants help with hers.
02:14Why am I not surprised? Ta-da.
02:16I am. Oh, Jasmine is a very unmotivated kid.
02:20Oh, well, then it's all the more impressive that she wants Nell's help.
02:24Yes, very true. So, the student has become the teacher. Well done, grasshopper.
02:29I have no idea what you mean by that, but, uh, Jasmine wants me to go over now if it's okay.
02:36Yeah, sure. You go. I'll pick you up when you're done. Now, wax off.
02:41Yeah, weird.
02:43Nellie, very proud of you.
02:45We are so watching Karate Kid as a family tonight.
02:53An old car.
02:55It's something.
02:56I also found this. I gave it to Krista a couple of years ago.
03:01It could mean that she was seeking help for her issues.
03:04It's not exactly a forwarding address.
03:09How was Adelaide? Did you close the deal?
03:11I did. But that's not the priority.
03:14I'll keep thinking laterally. I'm bound to come up with something soon.
03:21Your father's worried about you.
03:23He wasn't worried when he sent me to the other side of the world.
03:26He thought it was a good idea that you and Krista reconnect.
03:29But now he's questioning if it was the right decision.
03:32Please. Just give me a little more time.
03:35All right. Thank you.
03:43No, that was the police.
03:45They still can't find Ad.
03:47You know, the thief from the vineyard?
03:49Eden?
03:50Mm-hmm.
03:52Dad.
03:52Yeah, and I bought a Tesla X with your credit card, so that's good.
03:59Good, good.
04:00All right.
04:01What's going on?
04:01I saw Reese with this woman.
04:05Hey?
04:06Okay.
04:06Now, I recognise her.
04:07From somewhere, I just...
04:09She's driving me up the wall.
04:10Bingo!
04:14Tess Carmichael, strategic assistant to Conrad St. Clair.
04:18Okay.
04:19Well, don't you get it?
04:20That's two senior members of Conrad's empire
04:23with nothing better to do than hang around my little hotel.
04:25So it's a little hotel now.
04:27I'm being serious, Leo.
04:28Look, there is something going on, all right?
04:30I just know it.
04:32The tour company wants Mike to start as soon as possible,
04:34so he's busy trying to get up to speed.
04:37Oh, good for him.
04:38I do.
04:39It's a long time for you two to be apart.
04:42I know.
04:43I can't have a business.
04:44Yes.
04:46Not that we want to be away from you.
04:48Of course not.
04:49Of course not.
04:50I've got this vision of my own.
04:51Me and Reese on the beach.
04:53A couple of beers.
04:54A couple of meat pies.
04:55So she's planning on still being here, then?
04:58Yeah, well, we haven't put the time frame on it.
05:02As you can see, Mum is very interested in my love life.
05:05Mothers always are.
05:06Well, I'm sorry to constantly question you,
05:10but well, since Nicolette moved away...
05:13She thinks we're going to skip off to New Hampshire.
05:15But we're not.
05:16We're not.
05:17You can't blame me for worrying.
05:20And I think part of the issue is that I still don't know Reese very well.
05:24You've been spending so much time with her.
05:27Barely seen you either.
05:28Well, we can fix that.
05:33So, dinner at your mum's?
05:35Yeah, our friend Susan's going to be there.
05:36As in Holly's mum?
05:38Yeah.
05:39Unless, of course, you want to hang out with your good friend Tess.
05:41Actually, I would love to say I have other plans.
05:45Look, why don't we just go switch off for a couple of hours?
05:49If I can be good company.
05:51Why do you let her get to you so much?
05:54I shouldn't.
05:55I get that she's got influence over you, her father, but you're the Sinclair.
06:00She's not.
06:02It's hard to explain.
06:04All the palace intrigue.
06:07Look, I just want you to stand up for yourself.
06:14Look, it's Tess.
06:16What am I doing tonight?
06:20Why don't I do the honors?
06:21Come on, kiddo.
06:26It's time to hit the showers.
06:27You smell like Magic Johnson after the 1996 playoffs.
06:34I don't think I haven't noticed why you're so happy today.
06:37Oh, well, I just feel like I'm making some progress with Nell.
06:40Yeah, well, you are.
06:42It's all the hard work that we're putting in is paying off.
06:45All the communication, the checking in.
06:47And being there for her whenever she needs it.
06:49Well, it's working.
06:50It's been a while since Nell has been so open and honest with me.
06:54With us.
07:03Nell!
07:05So nice to see you.
07:07Thanks for meeting me here.
07:09You look so different to the photos Mel has of you.
07:13She kept photos?
07:14I bet Hugo is twice as big as he is in the ones I've seen.
07:19I'll grab a menu and we can order some drinks.
07:21I had a bit of a win with Nell myself earlier.
07:29Yeah?
07:30Yeah.
07:31Jane told her that Melanie had moved house and changed her number.
07:35And instead of her stressing about it by herself, she came to me.
07:39What?
07:39Jane told her that?
07:40Yeah, don't worry.
07:41I sorted that out.
07:41But the important thing is, is that Nell actually came to me.
07:46I think we might have finally moved past all the secrets.
07:50It's so lovely being back here.
07:53Sometimes you have to leave a place to really appreciate it.
07:56Joni Mitchell hit the nail on the head.
07:58You don't know what you've got until it's gone.
08:00You know?
08:01Yeah.
08:02My sister and I actually used to live on your street with Jane and her nan.
08:08Come to think of it, her name was Nell too.
08:11I won't tell you what I thought of her in case there's a connection between...
08:13I want to talk about Melanie.
08:15I know she's missing it.
08:15Why don't you tell me everything you know?
08:27Yeah, and Route 501's still yet to be done.
08:32Make sure to see you.
08:33Ah, Tess.
08:34Tess Carmichael?
08:36You're a long way from home.
08:38I'm Paul Rob...
08:39Paul Robinson.
08:41That's right, yeah.
08:44We've both done our research.
08:46Hmm.
08:47So what brings you to Australia then?
08:49It's a quick visit.
08:50I'm touching base with Rhys.
08:52Ah.
08:53Well, I hope she's only got good things to say about Lassiter's.
08:55Actually, Tess, if you're free tonight, I'd love to invite you to dinner.
09:01Sunset views from the penthouse are second to none.
09:04Let's face it, at some stage you do have to eat.
09:07I can get my chef to whip up his best.
09:09As it turns out, I don't have any plans.
09:12Could we make it an early one?
09:14Of course we can.
09:21Sweetheart, I'm sure Melanie's completely fine.
09:24She's probably just busy with the house move.
09:27I heard you talking with Jane.
09:29You were worried about her.
09:32Well, yes, but...
09:35When was the last time you saw her?
09:37Just a couple of weeks ago.
09:39Did she say anything about moving, or...
09:42No, but she's always been impulsive.
09:45It was probably just a last-minute thing.
09:46Jane said she changed her number two.
09:50Why would she do that?
09:51I don't know.
09:52But I do know that whatever the reason,
09:54it will be innocent and kooky and completely, typically Melanie.
10:02Did she mention anything about why she left my dad?
10:04She told me it was because she didn't want to be a mum.
10:22To me and Hugo.
10:23I have absolutely no idea why she would say that.
10:27Really?
10:28She talked about you and Hugo all the time.
10:31When I said she kept photos, she's got albums.
10:33One time, I walked in,
10:35and she was looking at photos of you and your brother on the socials.
10:39She's been watching you two grow up since the day she left.
10:43That doesn't make sense.
10:44Of course it does.
10:46Even though it didn't work out between Mel and your dad,
10:51she still loves you very much.
11:03Thank you for hosting at such short notice.
11:06I might have slightly pressured mum into having us.
11:09Oh, nonsense.
11:10Oh, thank you.
11:11It's wonderful to have the chance to get to know each other better.
11:15I agree.
11:16Well, I'm just happy to get out of the house.
11:19Oh, in all seriousness,
11:20I've been so busy with this school
11:22that, well, I haven't been as welcoming to you as I should have been.
11:26Oh, you don't have to apologise.
11:27I think I do.
11:29I made some unfair assumptions about your time here in Australia,
11:33but, well, I can see you were both very serious about each other.
11:37We are.
11:38Well, I've been so fixated on my fear
11:41that you might go back to the States.
11:42I haven't really given you a chance.
11:46And so that changes tonight.
11:48Cheers.
11:48Cheers.
11:49Cheers.
11:53All right, come in.
12:02There you go.
12:03Dry martini.
12:05Cheers.
12:06Cheers.
12:06So, word is it that you're Conrad's most valued employee?
12:18How long have you been working for him?
12:20More years than I can count.
12:21Oh.
12:22But he keeps life interesting.
12:25How have you and Rhys been getting along?
12:27Yeah, I've enjoyed the attention of a Sinclair.
12:29I mean, considering we're such a small cog in the Empire.
12:32It's not an inconvenience having someone running their eye over your domain?
12:37Well, I have to admit, it was a bit of a surprise to discover
12:41that she'd been here for three weeks before we knew who she was.
12:44Sorry?
12:45Well, you didn't know that?
12:46Oh, I mean, I just assumed that it was some sort of company strategy.
12:52Well, Rhys kept her identity a secret.
12:54I mean, we only realised who she was when my sister Lucy recognised her.
12:58I see.
12:59If you're not aware of that, you're probably not aware that she's sleeping with a porter
13:02as well.
13:04We've barely had time to think about our wedding.
13:07Has your dad said anything to you, Sam?
13:09A few days.
13:10Oh.
13:11Now it all comes out.
13:12I'm sure it'll just be a small ceremony, surrounded by the people that we love.
13:17Oh, sorry.
13:19Mum, just whatever you do, don't go alloping in Scotland, please.
13:21Oh, no.
13:22I won't do that, no.
13:23I want you all around me, even if that means I have to drag Nicolette, Isla, Aaron and David
13:28back here as well.
13:30Rhys, you're from a big family, aren't you?
13:34Rhys.
13:35Oh, sorry.
13:36We were just asking about the Sinclair family tree.
13:40Oh, there's just, there's so many of them, I can barely keep track of it.
13:43Mum, this is, this is fantastic.
13:47But you are the eldest.
13:49I am, I am.
13:51The funny thing is, we have hardly any family photos like you have.
13:54Gosh, we haven't taken a complete family photo for years.
13:58Well, it's really lovely.
14:01I'll tell you what, next family member we run into, I will personally take the photo
14:05myself.
14:05How's that sound?
14:07You know, if you like that wine, I can have a case sent over to you.
14:12It's from my son's vineyard.
14:14Or you could pick my brains about Rhys.
14:19I'll admit, it was a shock to learn she's seeing someone here.
14:22And a former escort at that.
14:25It's very out of character for her.
14:28According to what I've heard about Rhys, everything she's done here has been out of character.
14:31What have you heard?
14:32Oh, that she's the hardest working member of the family, apart from Conrad, that is.
14:36And that she always has a very busy schedule, managing his various interests.
14:40That's true.
14:41Yeah.
14:42So it seems highly unusual that she'd want to spend so much time here.
14:47That local delicacies aside, that is.
14:49You know, I'm going to go out on a limb here, but I'm sensing that you have some concerns as well.
14:54Thank you for a pleasant evening.
14:59Oh, no, you don't have to rush on.
15:01Surely there must be some common ground we can reach.
15:06I'm not sure what you're getting at, but my loyalty is firmly with the Sinclair family.
15:13All right.
15:14Perhaps we can meet up again then.
15:16Yep.
15:17Perhaps.
15:20Come on.
15:24What a nice idea this was.
15:34Well, who doesn't like a nice walk after dinner?
15:36I just feel bad you have to walk home alone.
15:38I know.
15:39I'll be absolutely fine.
15:43So how's the new home going?
15:46It's tidied off a bit weird, but it's getting better.
15:50Good.
15:50Are you okay about Melanie?
15:56Right now, I don't know what to say.
16:00But thank you for saying what you did.
16:03It's the truth.
16:05I just wish I had some more answers for you.
16:08Will you tell me if you hear from her?
16:10Of course.
16:12Can I drive you home?
16:13Ah, no.
16:14It's okay.
16:14I can walk.
16:15Are you sure?
16:16Yeah.
16:16It's not far.
16:17Okay, well, call me any time, yeah?
16:19Yeah, I will.
16:22Nell, what were you doing with Sharon Davies?
16:30Half a bedtime story and Abby was out like a light.
16:33Good positive evening all around then.
16:35I'll take you.
16:36It didn't went well?
16:37Ah, Tess is an intriguing woman, I can tell you.
16:40What'd you find out?
16:41Oh, it's more about what Tess learned from me.
16:44You know, she didn't know that Rhys was sleeping with Byron.
16:48Well, I bet you enjoyed telling her.
16:50Yes, it was also news to her that when Rhys first arrived, she stayed undercover for three weeks.
16:56Really?
16:57Yeah.
16:58You know, I get the distinct impression that Tess is not very happy with her either.
17:03What, she said that?
17:04No, but I could tell.
17:06You know what, I think I might invite Tess on a tour of the city tomorrow, see what else I can find out.
17:11Well, you're really enjoying this, aren't you?
17:15I always enjoy the company of powerful women, you know that.
17:20Please don't tell Dad I was with her.
17:23I won't be keeping any secrets from Toadie, especially after today.
17:28I had to see Sharon.
17:29I knew she was worried about Melanie too.
17:31Well, I think your father would prefer that you shared any concerns that you had about Melanie with him.
17:39He would just worry about me.
17:42And he knows less than I do about where she is anyway.
17:46Well, I still, I don't think he'd be very happy about you going about it in secret.
17:52I just think I'm trying to get in between him and Tere's, but I'm not.
17:56I just want to know if Mel's okay.
18:01Please, don't tell Dad.
18:05Things are just starting to get good at home again.
18:11Did Sharon have any answers for you?
18:15No, she doesn't know anything either.
18:18Right.
18:18Well, I think we can grieve and all we can do is wait for Melanie to make contact when she's ready.
18:28I guess.
18:32If you promise not to go on any more secret fact-finding missions, then I won't tell your father.
18:38Okay.
18:39Promise.
18:40No more secrets.
18:41All right, but we have a deal, hmm?
18:45Let's get you home.
18:48Is it just me, or do you think it's time to put on our tracky-dacks?
19:02Well, I can't think of a better way to unwind for the evening.
19:05Hey, I thought I was picking you up.
19:08Uh, we finished early, so Jasmine's one drove me home.
19:12Oh.
19:13How did the study session go?
19:15Really good.
19:16Jasmine totally got the whole SWAT thing.
19:17Oh, I'm so glad to hear that.
19:20Thanks again for your help.
19:22You might have missed your calling as an economics teacher, Ms. Willis.
19:26I don't think so.
19:28Is that, uh, more kids looking for your expert help?
19:30Uh, just Jasmine again.
19:34Uh, she wants to pass on her thanks to Therese for the great explanation.
19:39My pleasure.
19:40Thank you for tonight.
19:46I thought it might be exactly what you needed.
19:48Yeah, it was.
19:53Hold that thought.
19:54It's late.
20:12I take it you've ordered some room service?
20:19I just had a very enlightening conversation with Paul Robinson.
20:22He told you about Byron.
20:23What are you doing?
20:24A former escort?
20:25My private life is none of your business.
20:27Come on, Rhys.
20:28It's tacky.
20:29Even for you.
20:30You don't know the first thing about our relationship.
20:32Paul also told me you spent three weeks sitting by the pool before you revealed you were a Sinclair.
20:36So?
20:37So it's now very clear why you haven't been searching for Krista.
20:40Okay.
20:41Does Byron know about your sister?
20:46Fine.
20:47We'll offer him an ex gratia payment and get him to sign an NDA.
20:50Tess.
20:51You can say your goodbyes in the morning.
20:53What?
20:53Your father agrees.
20:55It's time to come home.
20:56I'm not coming home.
20:57Who's going to find Krista?
20:58Someone up to the task.
21:00Me.
21:02Enjoy tonight.
21:03Tomorrow, you fly back to the States.
21:07Coming up on Neighbours.
21:12Whatever the results say today, we need to make sure this doesn't come between us.
21:15I'm not sure I can agree to that.
21:17You might be sorry for the hurt that you've caused, but maybe you don't regret it.
21:21What?
21:22Tell me about Byron Stone.
21:24What do you want to know?
21:25I'm going to have to make some decisions about my future.
21:27I'm going to have to make some decisions about my future.
21:37Neighbours.
21:43Neighbours.
21:43Everybody needs good neighbours.
21:48With a little understanding.
21:52You can find the perfect land.
21:59Neighbours.
22:01Should be there for one another
22:05That's when good neighbors
22:08Become good friends
22:13That's when good neighbors
22:17Become good friends
