00:00Previously on Neighbours.
00:02They loved us.
00:03You're saying that her brain has chosen to block me out?
00:06How long is this going to last?
00:08I'm afraid I can't tell you that.
00:10Have you heard from Paul?
00:11He doesn't like any of our ideas.
00:13I have a very serious revenue problem.
00:15I think when Paul gets back, you should talk to him.
00:17That's a name I haven't seen for a while.
00:19I'm finding it hard to get patrols to drop in on Holly.
00:22Well, maybe you should just swing by and check on her.
00:24I just wanted to make sure that you were safe.
00:26Make up your mind, Andrew. Do you care about me or not?
00:30Neighbours
00:34Everybody needs good neighbours
00:38With a little understanding
00:42You can find the perfect plan
00:48Neighbours
00:51Should be there for one another
00:56That's when good neighbours
00:58Be friends
01:00Say something!
01:06No, you know what? I know why you're staying quiet.
01:08It's because you don't want to admit that you care about me.
01:10Holly...
01:12I think that you're reading into this a little too much, okay?
01:18I'm just a concerned friend. That's... that's it.
01:22No, no! I call BS!
01:24If that's all this is, then why didn't you tell me you were here?
01:27Well, I should've. I just didn't want it to look like something that it's not.
01:31We're just friends, Holly.
01:35Fine.
01:37Then I want all the weirdness between us to stop.
01:39No more awkwardness.
01:41No more keeping an eye on me.
01:43I just want everything to go back to the way it was before.
01:52Okay, I just... I still don't understand.
01:54Hmm.
01:55Law's message has certainly raised more questions than answers.
01:59But she lives in Manchester and he's flying in from New York, so...
02:02Yeah. Well, I suppose they've just coordinated their arrivals.
02:05Okay, but what does he even want her to do?
02:07As you can see, the hotel's had quite an upgrade since your last visit.
02:11Well, I guess we're about to get our answer.
02:14Hi.
02:15Hi.
02:16Hey, hey, listen. This is Annalise.
02:21Oh, Annalise, hello. Lovely to meet you.
02:23Hi.
02:24I'm Therese. Gabby's always spoken very highly of you.
02:27That's my ex-sister-in-law.
02:29Oh, right. Krista Tanaka.
02:31Heard a lot about you, too.
02:32Ah, great. Well, I can't wait to hear all about you.
02:35Oh, Annalise used to live on Ramsey Street and she used to be a filmmaker.
02:39Hmm. Well, before Lucy helped me get into the hotel business.
02:42Oh, and you're the assistant manager at Lasseter's Manchester, right?
02:46We were actually just talking about how you won the bronze bell a couple of years ago.
02:49Yeah, and Annalise is going to help us achieve the same result. We're right here.
02:55Great.
02:56Paul, could I just have a word with you, please?
02:58Yeah, sure.
02:59Excuse us?
03:00Mm-hmm.
03:01Well, they've got quite a bit to catch up on.
03:04So, you should have run this past me.
03:09Yeah, well, I thought it'd be easier to explain in person.
03:11But you asked me to come up with ideas for the bronze bell.
03:14Yeah, and they were very creative.
03:16But the thing is, we need somebody with a proven track record.
03:19Okay, um, how was Annalise even able to come at such short notice?
03:23Well, see, that's the thing.
03:25She was just about to go and leave, so the timing was absolutely perfect.
03:28I mean, that was Lucy's suggestion.
03:30Anyway, I think you're gonna love her.
03:32She's like a 90s version of you.
03:37Byron still hasn't told me he's leaving.
03:39Yeah, well, we're not exactly his type of people.
03:41I'm also one of the reasons why he's taking you.
03:43I get it, but I just hate hearing it second hand.
03:48Between Byron and my sister being in hospital...
03:52My gosh, my emotions are fried.
03:55What's wrong with me doing?
03:58Nothing's changed.
04:00Kara's still a stranger.
04:02Hey, I can't even imagine.
04:05This week just well and truly sucks.
04:08Hey, thanks for looking after Abby today.
04:11Oh, she was a dream as always.
04:12I miss hanging out with that little munchkin.
04:14Yeah, well, she wouldn't stop raving about that cubby house you made her.
04:17Excuse me, it's called a princess palace.
04:19Right, whatever you want to call it.
04:21You've got a big fan.
04:22Names, please.
04:25Still no change?
04:28All right, well, let me know if me and Kristen can do anything okay?
04:32Thanks, Byron.
04:33All right, I'll leave you guys to it.
04:38You know, Abby isn't the only person I am to please.
04:42How about I cheer you up tomorrow?
04:44Yeah, I don't like your chances.
04:49What exactly do you have in mind?
04:53So you gave up the film industry to be a part of the hotel business?
04:56Hmm, Lucy would have recommended me to the Manchester team probably ten years ago.
05:02Hmm.
05:03You gave up all the celebrities and the parties.
05:06No, docos are not glamorous.
05:09Besides, my ex-husband didn't like me travelling all the time.
05:13Ex?
05:14Yeah, Sam and I, um, we recently separated.
05:19Yeah, well, I think we can dissect failed marriages some other time.
05:22Right now, we need to discuss the bronze bell and our showstopper event.
05:26Annalise?
05:27Okay, so, I think that we should bid to host the Worldly Gems Jewelry Expo.
05:34Wow, amazing!
05:35Yeah.
05:36I mean, do you think you'd get it?
05:37Well, Jo, my sister, she's actually friends with a couple of the key players and she's already put a good word in for us.
05:42So, I think with the right pitch, it could be ours.
05:45Hmm.
05:46I mean, we've already scheduled an online meeting with the organisers tomorrow afternoon, so...
05:50Well, isn't it wonderful that you're here, Annalise?
05:53Hmm.
06:10Morning.
06:11Oh, hey.
06:12I saw Wendy inside.
06:13Yeah, she's just getting us a couple of takeaways.
06:17It's good to see you not at the pavilion.
06:19Yeah, it's a relief, actually.
06:22I'm just, uh, been scoping out some hiding places with the best vantage point.
06:29I'm so sorry again about yesterday.
06:32It's already forgotten.
06:36Hey!
06:38Double shot as requested.
06:43Wow.
06:44So, um, what's on for today?
06:46Um, we're gonna go see Remy a little later.
06:47Mm.
06:49Other than that, but a lot.
06:51Mm.
06:52Which is a good thing.
06:54You deserve a chill day, my love.
06:55Yeah, I've been working a lot.
06:56Yeah, I've been working a lot.
07:12Does it still feel like home?
07:14Ah.
07:15Sorry, I'm Aaron.
07:16I manage the waterhole.
07:17Ah.
07:19Annalise, I assume?
07:20Yes.
07:21World travels fast.
07:22It does.
07:23And yes, Aaron's borough does still feel like home.
07:26Actually, I used to work at the waterhole.
07:28Really?
07:29Yeah.
07:30I'm glad they've changed it back to the original name, though.
07:31Last time I visited it was called the Scarlet Bar.
07:33Oh.
07:34I have heard they've changed the name over the years.
07:36Mm.
07:37Actually, I've worked at the cafe, too.
07:39Gosh, so many wonderful memories.
07:42Well, it must be nice to be back.
07:44Yeah.
07:45So I heard about this jewellery expo.
07:47Sounds like quite the coup if we can land it.
07:49Mm.
07:50Actually, I, um, I want to meet with you and the team for the pitch.
07:53Just want to make sure that what we're proposing for the waterhole
07:55is going to be achievable.
07:56Absolutely.
07:57I'll go round up the team.
07:58Great.
07:59Cool.
08:00Anything you need from me?
08:01Nope.
08:02Don't think so.
08:03Everything's under control.
08:08Well, Sadie seems to be making sure the house is all hers today.
08:12I wonder what she's up to.
08:14My gut feeling says Tay.
08:17Beyond that, I do not want to know.
08:21Have you got any updates on the storeroom incident?
08:24No.
08:25Thanks for asking.
08:26I'm sorry that I wasn't as attentive as I should have been.
08:34It means a lot to hear say that.
08:36Yeah.
08:39Jane's requested some information from Saskia's last school.
08:44Maybe that will give us some more insight into her.
08:47Tell Sadie if she keeps interrupting our plans, we're going to interrupt hers.
08:55It's Glenis from work.
08:56I promised to give her the Year 10 art assignment.
08:59I completely forgot.
09:01I'm going to have to drop them off.
09:03Right.
09:05Oh, and she lives at St Kilda.
09:07It's going to take a while, depending on traffic.
09:09Yeah.
09:10Yeah.
09:11I better go.
09:13Bye.
09:16Bye.
09:17Enjoy the sun.
09:19Bye safe.
09:20Thanks.
09:24I mean, surely you can see why Krista's put out.
09:27There's no need for her to feel threatened by Annalise.
09:29Well then, why would you do this without consulting?
09:31Because I had to wait quickly before Annalise made other plans with her time.
09:36Oh my keys.
09:38Why is the bronze bell all of a sudden so important to you?
09:41I mean, you have never mentioned it before.
09:44No, I heard chatter about it while I was with Lucy.
09:47You were supposed to switch off from work and enjoy your time with the kids?
09:50Yeah, I was.
09:51And did you help Andrew and Tash paint the nursery?
09:54Yes, I did all of that, but I'm always ambitious about the hotel, aren't I?
09:59Well then, when are we going to get a chance to catch up properly?
10:03I mean, you fell asleep at the moment.
10:04You're heading for Lola.
10:06Soon, all right.
10:07Very soon, darling.
10:08But right now I have to go and help with this pitch for Lasseter's, okay?
10:15Unless there's something else that you'd rather talk about?
10:19No.
10:20No, no.
10:21Nothing.
10:22I can't wait.
10:23You sure?
10:24Mm-hmm.
10:25Okay.
10:29Rhett.
10:43Therese.
10:44Any luck with prospective buyers?
10:45Yeah, okay.
10:46I should be cheering on more often.
10:47You approve?
10:48I hope you had your Weet-Bix this morning, because you're going to need your stamina.
11:02You have my consent.
11:03And then some.
11:04Okay, easy, Tiger.
11:05I thought we could get the dice out and see what we roll.
11:06The dice that I got you for your birthday?
11:07Yeah.
11:08You know, just play with them, see what we're doing.
11:09Okay, I can roll with that.
11:10I hope this is enough to chew you up.
11:11I mean, it depends.
11:12Like, what if the game doesn't go in my favour?
11:13Well, that's the beauty of this game.
11:14No matter what we roll, there'll always be winners.
11:15Alright, enough of the appetiser.
11:16I'm ready for the main course.
11:17What's wrong?
11:18with them see what we're doing. Okay I can roll with that. I hope this is enough to cheer you up.
11:24I just mean it depends like what if the game doesn't go in my favor? Oh that's the beauty of
11:28this game. No matter what we roll there'll always be winners. All right enough with the appetizer
11:33I'm ready for the main course. What's wrong? Um the dice aren't in here. Oh I know what you're doing
11:45this is a part of your little game. All right am I hot? Am I cold? Neither. Okay it's supposed
11:53to be a trick question you wouldn't say hot regardless. I'm serious the dice are missing.
11:59Where could they be? I think I have an explanation. Okay go on I'm open to spoilers. Abby was playing
12:11with my bag in the cubby house. But I thought it was a princess palace. Not helping.
12:21Yeah I think of Jim often. Yes he was a remarkable man. Hmm the guilt's never left me though.
12:29Oh mum stole his money instead of trying to save his life. At least you are not responsible for
12:36your mother's actions. Well that's trademark Helen Daniels if ever I heard it. Yeah well I only quote
12:41from the best. Which Gran was. I adored living with her. Not only was she wise but she had a wicked
12:49sense of humour after a wine or two. Oh yeah she certainly did. Hi looks like I missed out on the punchline.
12:57No just taking a trip down memory lane. Have you been working on the pitch without me?
13:03Mm yeah under the pump. Seem to have time for reminiscing. Anyway look let's take you through
13:11our thoughts. Okay actually I've got some really great ideas. Yeah well I think the pitch that we've
13:16worked out here is pretty rock solid. Yeah we really just need to add some visuals of the hotel and we're
13:21good to go. Oh actually I've got to be at the waterhole. See you. Bye.
13:32Don't be upset. You're still going to be part of the video call. Sounds like I should be grateful for that.
13:38Annalisa's on a roll. I think it's best that we just let her do her thing. Okay?
13:45Yeah.
13:51Hey. So all the staff are inside except for Holly Hoyland.
13:58What is she running late? I'm not sure. I'm just waiting for her to call me back.
14:04Now you might know her dad, Kyle Kennedy.
14:07Sorry I lost track of time. Um you must be Anna?
14:12Annalise. Now if we're to win this bronze bell everyone needs to put their best foot forward.
14:17Hang on I thought we had to secure some expo first. Yeah that's my job. Your job is to show
14:23up on time and to give it your all. Okay?
14:33What's going on? You're not only late for the meeting you bailed on your shift.
14:36I'm sorry I've got a lot going on. Holly I need more than that.
14:42Bowman is still out there and it's getting to me. Okay I'm trying my best.
14:45Okay. I get it. But the last thing we want to do is get on the wrong side of Annalise.
14:50Don't worry I'll win her over.
15:02Hi. How did it go?
15:04Yeah there are a couple of bad apples amongst the staff.
15:07I'm sure you've got plenty of those at Manchester as well.
15:09Um yeah to be honest Katrina Marshall would not last a day there.
15:13Yes well Katrina's got her nose out of joint because she missed a promotion.
15:18I could offer some strategies on how to deal with difficult staff.
15:21That's okay I've got it. Here are the images that you asked me for.
15:25Ah good.
15:26Um are these the best we have?
15:32It's the latest updates. You don't like them?
15:37Send me the files. I'll um I'll do some photoshopping.
15:40Add some blue skies or something.
15:42Okay.
15:43Oh Annalise hey I'm just still a little bit curious how this all came about.
15:47I mean you just happened to have time off at Manchester.
15:50Oh no I had to organise leave.
15:53Yeah uh Paul said it was an emergency so I had to come right away.
15:56Um send me those files when you can.
16:04All right come on let's get going.
16:06Any luck?
16:07No success.
16:09With the earrings on in there I'm not sure where they'll be.
16:13Ah can we check the cover-ups?
16:14Yeah yeah sure but can you guys let yourselves out we're just going to get down to Harold's.
16:18Oh yeah that's fine we won't be long anyway.
16:20Okay well make sure the palace is still standing because otherwise there'll be tears all right.
16:25Come on we'll see you guys later.
16:27Yeah see ya.
16:37Guys have to be here somewhere.
16:41What if Abby has them with her?
16:44I'm so sorry Krista I don't know why Paul's done any of these.
16:47He can't be like that you've got to stand up to him.
16:50I'm hungry.
16:51You're hungry?
16:52Okay sorry I promised her up your name.
16:53Okay you go.
16:54Okay talk to dad okay.
16:59Our ideas for the bronze ball weren't that bad were they?
17:02No.
17:04Oh I forgot to ask did you um did you talk to him about your issues with Irene?
17:08Um I tried to earlier but he had to run off.
17:11Oh I did speak to Rhett about how I wrote.
17:13And?
17:14He hasn't had any interest.
17:17Really?
17:18But don't worry I'll speak to Paul.
17:20Your chat to him is top priority.
17:26Just a minute.
17:26Hi.
17:32Hi.
17:33Hi.
17:34Um is Sadie in?
17:38I don't know where she is.
17:39She was supposed to be home but I think her plans went belly up for some reason.
17:43I was just hoping to chat to her.
17:47I've had a pretty crappy morning at work.
17:50It's a long story.
17:52Oh hey love.
17:53Oh hey.
17:54Hey Paul.
17:54Did you um pass her as assignments on?
17:57Uh yes.
17:58Glenis got them.
18:00Um I'll let Sadie know that you're looking for her.
18:02All right.
18:03I'm really happy that I'm ready for her.
18:11Yeah.
18:12Okay.
18:12Well done.
18:13I see.
18:33Don't worry I know there's something.
18:38Hello.
18:39Hello.
18:39Can I talk to you real quick?
18:40Yeah sure.
18:41What's up?
18:41Uh it's just about Sadie.
18:43She's super upset about you know losing her earrings.
18:46Oh yeah.
18:47Yeah I bet.
18:50Abby could I have my dice back?
18:52No.
18:53Pretty please.
18:55I'll buy you a muffin.
18:58What about if I build you a bigger princess palace?
19:01Yeah I mean I didn't know.
19:03And you and Isla and all your unicorns can fit.
19:07I want that and the muffin.
19:10Yeah.
19:11Deal.
19:14You know you negotiate like your granddad.
19:25That was close.
19:28I'm sorry I failed to cheer you up this morning.
19:30Are you kidding?
19:32This has been so much fun.
19:33And by the way you're about to get some new earrings.
19:43What did this place mean to me?
19:45What did I learn?
19:46I couldn't easily answer these questions myself.
19:49So I started asking around.
19:52I suppose some of my best fun was working for that mood swinging tyrant Paul Robinson.
20:00God I got under his skin.
20:02And I shouldn't have married Joe.
20:05Two dumb mistakes.
20:09Well I suppose I could say that that's where my son Matthew and I found each other again.
20:15I used to be called plain Jane super brain.
20:18Charming.
20:19The best thing about living on Ramsey Street.
20:22What's the girls?
20:23Of course only one caught my eye.
20:25We've been married five years.
20:27And living here in London.
20:28Why did you lie to me about Annalise having leave from Manchester?
20:44You made it sound like it was all so easy and convenient.
20:47But really you said we were having a crisis.
20:49All right.
20:50All right maybe I did give everyone that impression.
20:53But it was so Lucy could arrange the time off.
20:57Okay why is it so important to have her here?
20:59Because I want the bronze bell.
21:01But you've completely undermined me.
21:04Perhaps I should have spoken to you.
21:06But I honestly thought that you would welcome an extra pair of hands.
21:10You know what?
21:12We had such a lovely time in Italy.
21:14And I remember thinking you know isn't it great?
21:17You and I have come so far.
21:19And we have.
21:20Then why are you disrespecting me?
21:22Because I got carried away okay?
21:25But surely you can see what an acid Annalise is?
21:27Actually no.
21:28So far I can't.
21:30All I see is someone who's running her own race.
21:32She is a perfectionist.
21:34She's condescending and borderline rude.
21:40Um I'm sorry.
21:41You weren't meant to hear that.
21:43Hmm.
21:44You know I'm just doing the job that I was hired to do.
21:48Yes.
21:48Absolutely.
21:50Now come on lady.
21:51Surely we can move past this.
21:54I don't think we can Paul.
21:56Neither do I.
22:01Coming up on Neighbours.
22:03Just a report that I requested from a student's previous school.
22:06I'm serious.
22:08Oh I missed you.
22:09You still haven't told mum that you're leaving yet have you?
22:12This is a nice surprise.
22:13What's all this about?
22:15Just not sure that living with you is something I feel comfortable with.
22:19Okay.
22:21What, what?
22:21I don't know.
22:22How we can stay here?
22:23Let me tell you though.
22:26Thanks for telling me.
22:28Hey!
22:28I'm not getting married.
22:29We have never done this.
22:30That's okay.
22:31I'll be right back.
22:32I'm waiting for you.
22:32It's gonna...
22:33I'm waiting for you.
22:34Yeah.
22:34Act 2.
22:35What the food aren't?"
