00:00Previously on Neighbours.
00:02My whole life makes sense without remembering her.
00:05And I'm just not sure that living with you is something I feel comfortable with.
00:10How do you feel about separate bedrooms?
00:12You focus on the event, and you focus on making sure that Lasseter's is top notch.
00:17You can't have your treasure hunt at the lake.
00:19There is nowhere else.
00:20Sizz!
00:22Just a report that I requested from a student's previous school.
00:25We won't be able to put you on the roster next week.
00:27What was it? You're firing me?
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 able to help and do your things
01:08Saskia?
01:09You scared me.
01:13I was just looking for Susan.
01:17In the greenhouse?
01:18Yeah, everywhere.
01:19I mean, she told me I'm not getting any more shifts at Irini Rising.
01:23So you trashed her plants?
01:25Well, I just knocked this one.
01:28I mean, the rest were already like that.
01:32So what are you doing here?
01:34I saw you coming in from the street.
01:36I mean, I knew Carl and Susan weren't here.
01:38But you saw them leave too, didn't you?
01:41No, I was kind of in my head.
01:43I mean, Susan firing me came out of nowhere.
01:48I guess I took it bad.
01:51I guess I was just so upset I wasn't thinking.
01:54And I was in a state and I knocked them over.
01:57I'm really embarrassed.
02:00Can you please not say anything?
02:02Yeah.
02:03Yeah, okay.
02:20Oh, hey.
02:27Looks like she hasn't taken it very well.
02:29Oh, I get the feeling she can hold a grudge.
02:31Very intense.
02:32It's pretty mildly.
02:42Are you sure you're okay with this?
02:47Kara and I are going to have separate rooms.
02:49And it just means a lot to the boys if I try.
02:52That's what being a mum's all about.
02:54Compromise, right?
03:02Hey.
03:04Where's Dexy?
03:06Oh, I'm not sure.
03:07He was around before.
03:08Oh, he gives me like six extra hugs for missing my homecoming.
03:12Welcome home.
03:14I cannot wait to sleep in my own bed.
03:16Better than a hospital bed.
03:18Yeah.
03:19Yeah.
03:20Well, we won't keep you.
03:21Just wanted to say if you need anything, please let us know.
03:23We're here for you.
03:25We understand what you're going through.
03:27Thanks.
03:28I really appreciate it.
03:29Okay.
03:35There you go.
03:37I think Remy needs all the TLC we can offer.
03:39Yeah.
03:40I mean, it's a good thing they've let her home now, right?
03:42When did local councils become so hard to please?
03:46Hmm.
03:47They didn't like your treasure hunt idea.
03:49No.
03:50The mayor wants something that the community can really be part of.
03:54I mean, what does that even mean?
03:56Kristen?
03:58I thought it was my job to focus on the hotel, not the expo.
04:02Yeah, it is, but I still like your thoughts.
04:03Well, I'm not surprised.
04:07The treasure hunt is a paid promotion.
04:09It's not a community event.
04:11So do you have a better idea?
04:12Yeah, I could probably come up with one.
04:14At least?
04:16All ideas are welcome.
04:18There you go.
04:22Well, I'll get to thinking and I will get back to you soon.
04:25Thanks.
04:27Well, so much for staying in our own lanes.
04:29That was all Paul.
04:30Still, she couldn't wait to poo poo my idea.
04:34No, I don't think that was the case.
04:36Anyway, listen, I've got to go, but try and keep an open mind about Krista.
04:39Okay.
04:41And now I just, I put all of this pressure on myself to come up with an amazing event idea.
04:45Wendy, don't look at her.
04:49She's going to know we're talking about her.
04:51Oh, no, it's just, she reminds me of someone.
04:55Oh, it's you actually.
04:58Do you think I could bounce some ideas off you, please?
05:01Oh, I would love that, but I've got to go meet Sade at the uni.
05:04So I have to support her.
05:06I'll see you later.
05:07Okay.
05:08Yes.
05:12Oh, hang on, Wendy, you dropped-
05:22Dex.
05:24What are you doing here?
05:26I was practicing trick shots with my basketball and it came out of the fence, smashed into a pot.
05:32I'm really sorry.
05:34That's all right.
05:35Must have been quite a shot.
05:36Where did the ball end up?
05:37Oh, oh, I threw it back over the fence.
05:39Oh, okay.
05:40Well, Remy's home.
05:41She's asking after you.
05:43Oh, yeah, um, yeah, I better go.
05:46Yeah.
05:47I can take the photos down if it's too much.
06:02Oh, no, that's okay.
06:03You can click.
06:07Now, this monstrosity I remember.
06:09But remind me why we haven't chucked it yet.
06:13Because it's mine.
06:17Where did you get to?
06:28Lower.
06:30Hello, no luck.
06:32Hey.
06:33Hi.
06:34Um, we come bearing gifts.
06:37I have been dying for some day spa pampering.
06:40Yeah, I thought you might be too.
06:42Why don't you and Ellie come with me?
06:43We can have a girls day.
06:44Anyone want a cuppa?
06:48Me?
06:51Oh, uh, we don't have any milk.
06:54Oh, I'll go.
07:06Now, what about your sister?
07:07Susan told me she couldn't keep her eye on an arena.
07:09I hope she's not too disappointed.
07:11Oh, thanks for asking.
07:12Uh, Sus is okay.
07:13She doesn't really let that stuff get her down.
07:15Okay.
07:16Um, but hey, listen, I got a head.
07:18But, um, I will let you know if anything urgent comes up while you're in Canberra.
07:21Okay, I appreciate that.
07:22Yeah, of course.
07:23Oh, Dex.
07:26What's up?
07:28Um, would you know if something happened with Saskia today?
07:31Why?
07:32Oh, well, I saw her on the street earlier.
07:34She seemed very unhappy.
07:36I mean, she does seem like a nice person, but I'm concerned.
07:39You know, I worry that if she needed help, she might not know how to ask for it.
07:46If you knew something was troubling her, you'd tell me, right?
07:48I don't know anything.
07:52Hmm.
07:53That's a shame.
07:55I guess we can't help her if we don't have the full picture.
08:00She did...
08:03She did tell me that she has a lot of homework.
08:08Yeah.
08:09See, I knew it wouldn't take Krista long to come up with an idea.
08:19Well, let's reserve judgement until we hear it.
08:22Thank you so much for rushing me from the uni to pitch this over to you.
08:25Oh, of course.
08:27Hello.
08:28Oh, Annalise, this is Wendy.
08:29Oh, that's Wendy.
08:30Yes, we have met.
08:31I was waving.
08:32I remember.
08:34So why am I looking at Wendy Rodwell?
08:36Well, it's nice to see you too, Paul.
08:38OK, full disclosure, I've only just pitched this to them,
08:41but I put in a call to the council and they like it.
08:44Like what?
08:46An amateur jewellery competition.
08:48It'll run alongside the expo and open to all Erinsborough residents.
08:52Without the precious stones, of course.
08:53I mean, unless you wanted to donate some.
08:55You know, I am... I'm a designer.
08:57So will the council give us a letter of support for this initiative?
09:00They just want to know it's a goal from this end.
09:03It's a yes from me.
09:05Wow.
09:06Looks like you've saved the day.
09:07Oh, great.
09:08You can cancel the treasure hunt then.
09:09Oh, no, we'll still be having that.
09:10Actually, Paul, there's a bit of a clash.
09:12Mm.
09:13We're going to have the competition and the treasure hunt.
09:16What a great outcome, eh?
09:18Mm.
09:20Hey, Tay.
09:21Did you ever hear about my near-death experience?
09:26No.
09:27All right, so we were at Queenscliff, right, on holiday, and we were just taking like this chill, touristy sort of stroll down the pier.
09:36I remember this.
09:37We're walking down the pier, and Dexy goes, hey, is that a shark?
09:42And JJ comes straight over and is like, where?
09:44I don't see anything.
09:45Clamps upon the railing.
09:46And Dexter, without missing a bee, shoves him straight in.
09:49No, I'm trying to be serious, because if the water was any shallower, JJ could have broken his neck.
09:56But I can't keep a straight face, because as he goes down, he makes this sound like...
09:59Mum was actually the one who pushed me in.
10:09She and Dexter were both in on the whole thing.
10:19Well, that sounds like a really reckless thing for an adult to do.
10:29What are you doing?
10:37Why are you here?
10:39Stalking me?
10:41There's obviously something wrong if you're acting like this.
10:44If you tell me, maybe I can help.
10:46Everyone in this town acts like they want to help, but then they abandon you two minutes later.
10:50Is this because Susan didn't make your residence assistant?
10:52No.
10:53She lied.
10:56It wasn't about work.
10:57She just...
10:58She didn't want me.
11:01Just like...
11:02Just like Wendy?
11:03You did lock her in the storage cupboard, didn't you?
11:06I was so upset, Dex.
11:09She gaslit me from day one.
11:11Tending to be besties and then blanking me.
11:16I just snapped.
11:17So, at first I was going to get you one of these, but I couldn't choose.
11:24And who knows how long you'll be.
11:27So, a really hard Sudoku.
11:32You know, because you're a maths-y, science-y doctor lady.
11:35But also, logic puzzles, in case they help with, you know...
11:43Okay, well I've actually, I've actually done that one there.
11:46Hi.
11:47This must be a lot.
11:49Yeah, well if I understood the phrase cold war this well back in high school, I might have done better at history.
11:56Well, I'm hanging out with Kirster and Max at the waterhole later.
12:00You know, you're more than welcome to come.
12:02Take a breather.
12:04That sounds like heaven.
12:05It's just the pub, but I guess it's the same.
12:08Saves.
12:12No need.
12:14I can tell you're really in survival mode.
12:15Honestly, Remy, you seem so well. I almost forgot there was something wrong with you.
12:24Oh.
12:25Oh, no, no, no. I didn't, not forgot forgot.
12:28Hey mum, we're going to be late to that thing, right Tay?
12:32Yeah, the thing.
12:35Thanks.
12:36See you kids.
12:38Thanks bro.
12:39See you.
12:40I can't believe how long Dex is taking with the milk.
12:46I'll see if there's any UHT, hey?
12:51Seriously JJ, I've told you a million times. Stop leaving your junk everywhere.
12:56Hey, don't speak to my son like that.
12:59He's not just your son, Remy.
13:01This is a nice idea.
13:08I don't think I realised how much I needed to clean my head.
13:11Yeah well, no good to your family if you burn out.
13:15No.
13:16You need to take care of yourself too.
13:17Hopefully things even out soon.
13:19Here we go.
13:20Hey, not that I'm complaining, but what brought this on?
13:23Just this one's mother helping me win over the council.
13:27Iconic family.
13:28Must have felt pretty good to show that Annalise chick who's boss, right?
13:30It really did.
13:32Okay, Wendy isn't here, but we are under the strict instructions to celebrate.
13:36So cheers.
13:37Cheers.
13:38To Wendy.
13:39Wendy.
13:40Hey bro.
13:41You need some air?
13:42Cause you know you're always welcome over at ours whenever you need a timeout, right?
13:46Yeah, thanks.
13:49Hey Max, can we talk?
13:52Yeah, sure.
13:58There's something you need to know.
14:12I know I wasn't my best self earlier.
14:15I'm trying to get my head around the idea that you and I are married and the boys aren't just mine, but it isn't easy.
14:22You're just a stranger to me.
14:28That's awesome.
14:29Every time you say it.
14:33I'm just trying to be honest.
14:36I know.
14:40Can you imagine how difficult this is for me?
14:42I'm in photos with someone to share a home with that everyone tells me I love and none of it feels real.
14:52I just feel completely lost.
15:00So do I.
15:01I'm clearly we are both trying our best.
15:10I think maybe.
15:12Might be good if we just give each other a bit more space.
15:19Agreed.
15:21Lucky we have separate bedrooms.
15:31Oh, I got your favourite here. Chicken pisto from the hotel.
15:39Oh, and I made your favourite salad.
15:42Mmm, fresh.
15:44Very suspiciously good mood.
15:46That is because I am having lunch with two of my favourite people.
15:49Smooth. Suspiciously smooth.
15:54Anyway, Krista managed to save the day with her community initiative. That's good.
15:58Okay, out with her, Robinson.
15:59Out with what?
16:01You know what I'm talking about.
16:02Why are you pitting Annalise and Krista against each other?
16:05I'm not.
16:07Hey, Tyra.
16:08No, no, no, no, no.
16:10This whole business with the bronze bell.
16:12Flying Annalise out, undermining Krista.
16:14It's smelling fishier than the Pacific Ocean.
16:18Alright, maybe I have got an ulterior motive.
16:22I knew it.
16:24Alright, let's sit down and we'll talk about it then.
16:27Okay?
16:29I'm sorry about before.
16:31Me too.
16:33Wasn't really about you either.
16:34It's just a lot going on.
16:36Yeah.
16:37Is it always going to be like this?
16:40I don't think so.
16:42We're all just adjusting.
16:44What if Ma doesn't get her memory back?
16:47Yeah, we really don't want you to break up.
16:50Let's not get ahead of ourselves, okay?
16:53What your Ma needs is to feel safe and not pressured.
16:58Just take each day as it comes.
17:00Okay?
17:01Yeah, whatever Ma needs.
17:04I need you both to know one thing that will always be true.
17:10Your Ma and I love you more than anything else in this world.
17:14Okay?
17:16And I'm going to do whatever it takes to keep our family together.
17:20I knew that she locked me in that supply cupboard.
17:26The way she lied to my face afterwards.
17:29She's my baby sister.
17:31I just don't know how I didn't see this.
17:33No, don't feel bad.
17:35Saskia's worked very hard at hiding just how extreme her behaviour's become.
17:37Well, I don't know Saskia's complete history of the form I'm seeing.
17:41She's dealing with some complex attachment issues.
17:44Now, it's not my place to diagnose, but I would suggest she sees a psychologist soon.
17:48Just to help avoid her behaviour escalating.
17:51Yeah.
17:53It's already pretty scary.
17:55Is there anyone you can recommend?
17:57Oh, well, I'll think about it in the car.
17:59It's just that Holly's taking me out to the airport.
18:01Yeah, of course. Thanks, Carla.
18:02And thank you all for coming on the short notice.
18:03No worries.
18:04Yeah, I'll see you.
18:07Hey, Sas, I, uh, didn't know you were home.
18:11Try not to sound too excited.
18:12Yeah, uh...
18:15Why are you acting weird?
18:17Uh, I've diet, just diet. I haven't eaten.
18:19My brain's, like, running on 20%, so...
18:22Okay, good.
18:23Because I know it's really dirty, but I'm kind of craving Mum's hot dog macaroni thingy.
18:29Sounds good. I'm in.
18:30Cool. Great.
18:31Okay.
18:37Hey, Mum.
18:39Yeah, um...
18:41We need to talk.
18:43What do you mean, a test?
18:44Well, you see, Lucy said that Annalise was considering a more permanent return to Australia.
18:59Okay.
19:01Yeah.
19:02So, when I heard about the bronze bell, I thought, what better way to put Annalise and Krista together to see if they work as a team?
19:08So, hold on. You're eyeing Annalise off for a permanent position at Lasseter's?
19:11Potentially, yeah.
19:12But do you need a new manager? And if so, why haven't you been open about it?
19:16Because it's a bigger conversation which involves you and me. Don't.
19:23When I was in New York helping Andrew and Natasha to prepare for the baby, it was the closest we've felt in years.
19:30Oh, and that's wonderful.
19:31Yeah, and it was the same with Amy and Jimmy as well. Not so much L, actually. I hardly saw her. Bit worried about that, actually.
19:39Okay, so, um, where are you going with this?
19:44Uh, well, you know, I'm not getting any younger and, I don't know, I just think I'd like to spend more time over there with them.
19:52Right. Well, how much more time?
19:54Don't know at this stage. But I'd like the flexibility of being able to go over and back as often as I can.
20:01Oh, darling, don't think of this as me wanting to be away from you. I mean, it's quite the opposite.
20:06No, I understand. Your children are important.
20:10And I'm really sorry that I wasn't transparent sooner, but this is the reason why.
20:15Maybe you should be transparent with Annalise and Krista.
20:19No! It's all a big maybe at the moment. And who knows, Annalise might not even be the great fit.
20:25So how about we just see how the next week goes? Hmm?
20:29Uh, we got your message. What's going on?
20:38Well, just give Yamara a sec. I'm sure she'll explain.
20:44I really want this to be okay.
20:46But for now, I don't think us all being here is working.
20:56But you haven't even given her to go.
20:59I spoke to Susan and Carl and Holly before they went to the airport.
21:05We understand what you're going through and we're here for all of you.
21:07I just think I need some space to help get my head clearer.
21:17What does that mean?
21:22I'm going to go and stay with the Kennedys.
21:24Coming up on Neighbours.
21:36I wanted to talk to you about Byron.
21:38He hasn't been very happy lately.
21:40Mum, what are you doing here?
21:43We need to be spending time together.
21:45I'm not ready.
21:46Well, how much time is it going to take?
21:48Wait, look, I gotta go. It's work stuff.
21:50You're stalking me! Get away from me!
21:54I'm getting away from you.
21:57Sorry you're a little weird.
21:59I'm not.
22:00Let's go, let's go, let's go!
22:02You're all in the background.
22:04I'm in the background.
22:06Let's go.
22:07OK.
22:11I'm in here.
22:13It's the sky.
22:15It's the sky.
22:17I'm in.
22:19It's the sky.
