00:00Nothing, nothing.
00:01Sorry, I thought I must be confused.
00:05Are you pregnant?
00:07Don't look at her. I'm asking the question, are you pregnant?
00:11Yeah.
00:15What is this?
00:18Did you get pregnant deliberately?
00:20No, no.
00:22It wasn't like that.
00:23How could you even think that?
00:24I'm sorry, I'm sorry that I'm confused. Do you want to explain?
00:27Last week.
00:30I told her that I was pregnant.
00:31Right, and then what?
00:33I wanted to have an abortion, but then I spoke with Grandma
00:36and she made me realise that there's another way.
00:39She made you realise?
00:40I didn't make her realise anything.
00:42I just gave her another option,
00:44an option where everybody gets what they need.
00:47She's 15.
00:4916.
00:50This...
00:51This is madness.
00:54You said that she'll come round.
00:55Oh, she said that, has she?
00:57No, look, it's OK. Everything's going to be OK, all right?
01:01I promise you.
01:02Just, you don't worry.
01:03Go on.
01:09What?
01:10Are you for real?
01:11Look, it isn't what it looks like, all right?
01:13I didn't plan this, I promise you.
01:16So you decided
01:17to adopt your dead husband's grandkid's baby
01:21without consulting me?
01:24Eve, please, just sit down and let me explain.
01:26Explain.
01:28Manipulate you mean, steer me in the right direction,
01:30make me come to the conclusion you want me to come to.
01:32Look, I know it's a shock and I know it seems mad.
01:34I know it does, but...
01:35I'm sorry, there is no explaining this away, all right?
01:37It's not OK.
01:38This is...
01:41This is...
01:42It's...
01:43It's borderline abuse, is what it is!
01:45What?
01:48I have been treading so carefully,
01:52so gently,
01:53being considerate of everyone's feelings,
01:55and it has been very lonely,
01:57carrying this responsibility.
01:58Do you know what would have made it less lonely?
02:02Speaking to your wife!
02:04I finally suddenly decided
02:06that she wants to have a baby to give to us,
02:07like, hey, presto, it magically happened.
02:09Don't take that time with me, Eve.
02:11All right?
02:12I made her see that there was another option,
02:14that having a baby could make everybody happier.
02:16Everybody.
02:17Yes, everybody.
02:18You said it yourself.
02:19You agreed you would want a family with her.
02:21Yeah, I did.
02:22I did, didn't I?
02:23Amazing work, Sookie.
02:24Take her to bed, flatter her,
02:27make her believe that the reason she didn't want kids
02:29is because of her internalised homophobia.
02:31Tell her she's going to be an amazing mum.
02:33Hit her from every angle.
02:34Yeah, well played.
02:37Do you know what?
02:37I'm finding your sarcasm a little bit difficult to handle, Eve.
02:41This is exactly the tactic that Nish would use.
02:43How about straight-up anger?
02:44Because it was you!
02:46You wanted this, not me!
02:48You!
02:48Why, this is scaring me!
02:54To top it.
02:57To top it.
03:06I'm...
03:06I'm going to call Levani back in,
03:09tell her it's not going to happen.
03:11It's not fair enough to keep messing her about.
03:15Sookie, she needs to be getting proper advice on what to do.
03:18And thinking about her own future and not ours.
03:23Sookie!
03:23I don't know why I thought you'd understand.
03:27Here I go.
03:29Here I go.
03:30You don't have a child.
03:31You don't know what it's like to be a mother.
03:34You don't know what it's like to care for someone above yourself.
03:37You've never felt that love.
03:39Mm-hmm.
03:40And you know what?
03:41You've no idea what it feels like to be guided by faith.
03:44There it is.
03:45There it is.
03:46You just bowled through life, Eve.
03:48No worries.
03:50No plans.
03:52Superficial party girl, Eve.
03:54Well, you know what?
03:55I'm driven by more.
03:56And I want more.
03:57And I'm not ashamed to admit it.
03:58If you don't want this with me,
04:01then I'll do it on my own.
04:03The Galatis are my family, not yours.
04:06Wow.
04:11And that sookie is most definitely a bad wow.
04:27Do you want a drink?
04:29Yes, obviously I want a drink.
04:31Okay.
04:33You all right?
04:33Yeah, two gin and tonics, please, Cap.
04:36It's all right.
04:40Come on.
04:41Why is it?
04:43You have no idea, Robbie.
04:45You have no idea.
04:47No idea about what?
04:49Maybe you should go home.
04:51Just spend a bit of time with your kids, you know.
04:54Just a tight-knit family, isn't it?
04:56Galatis.
04:57Sookie at the helm.
04:58Make your heart to be on.
04:59Make your heart to be on.
05:00What is this?
05:01Eve.
05:02No, no.
05:03What's it supposed to mean?
05:03Go home and be with my family?
05:04I don't.
05:06Eve, are you trying to tell me something?
05:08Or did I just forget I said anything?
05:10What's happened?
05:11Nothing.
05:14Cap, can I go upstairs a minute?
05:17Come upstairs.
05:17Oh, I don't really know what to say.
05:26It's like I mean nothing to her.
05:29Like I'm just some chess piece that she can move around a board to get what she wants.
05:33I thought she changed her.
05:34I really thought you changed her.
05:35So did I.
05:36I don't know what to say.
05:38Poor Avani.
05:40Reminds me of Zoe.
05:42Kat's daughter.
05:43You know, growing up in a house and not knowing.
05:45I told you about all that, didn't I?
05:47Yeah, you did.
05:49Look how that ended.
05:50Do you think there's like, um, those things that you can only understand when you're a mum?
05:59Like what?
06:01I don't know, like, like that sacrifice, like that, that love.
06:07Is there like, um, an extra level in life that you can only reach when you have a kid?
06:13Oh, I don't know if I'd put it like that, but maybe there is some truth in there.
06:23What?
06:24Oh, I just never thought I wanted it before and then today, today she gets in my head and
06:31she plants a seed.
06:34And then it gets ripped out without even having a chance to grow and it's just left me feeling.
06:39Um.
06:43It's left me feeling like something's missing.
06:48Oh.
06:50You know, I actually agreed to looking into adoption before all of this came out.
06:55No, just because, just because Avani's pregnant and Sookie's gone about it like a lunatic,
07:00it doesn't make it all wrong.
07:02Does it?
07:03No.
07:04Maybe you just need a minute.
07:07Such a mistake.
07:08Eve.
07:14Don't do it.
07:15Please.
07:23What, are you going to tell my parents?
07:26They need to know Avani.
07:28But that's up to me.
07:29You're still a child.
07:30It's my choice and I am sick of everybody acting like I don't know my own mind.
07:37Like, I get that this is a shock and I get that you're angry, but please, like, what good
07:44could come of telling them now?
07:45Because you know my dad would just go and beat Joel up.
07:48Well, Joel's the dad.
07:48Yeah, he is.
07:51See, now that's the whole other thing because he doesn't know and I don't want him to.
07:55And then my mum, she would just scream and yell and then tell me she loves me a million
07:59times and then scream and yell some more.
08:01And I am tired of even thinking about it.
08:04Like, I'm just getting my head around all of this and I just need a bit of peace.
08:14Okay.
08:16I get that.
08:17Yeah?
08:18Yeah.
08:20Well, then, can we go home and just hear what Grandma has to say?
08:26Because right now she's there, feeling terrible, doubting herself.
08:31Well, so the kid's doubting herself.
08:33Yeah, she is.
08:35She didn't manipulate me, Eve.
08:38And the reason why I told her and not my parents is because I trust her.
08:44She was there for me when the police searched me.
08:49And the last thing I want to do is come in between you two.
08:52All right.
09:07All right.
09:09Hey.
09:10She's agreed to talk.
09:11You both may have said some things that you don't mean.
09:37So I think we should start by maybe owning that and saying sorry.
09:45It's me that needs to apologise.
09:50I'm sorry.
09:52I shouldn't have said all those things.
09:56I know you're not just a party girl, Eve.
09:58I was hurting, just lashing out.
10:05And all those things I said about wanting a family with you,
10:10about doing it with someone I love,
10:13someone who makes me happy, it's all true.
10:15Why didn't you say anything last week?
10:22That was me.
10:23I made her promise not to tell anyone.
10:25Why married?
10:26Yeah, well, she's told you now.
10:28It's only a couple of years later.
10:29Sorry, but you don't need to defend me, Brooke.
10:31I know.
10:32I just want you to know that this is what I want.
10:35If my mum had had an abortion,
10:41then I wouldn't be here, would I?
10:44And I know I can be a bit of a nightmare sometimes,
10:48but I like that.
10:51Like, honestly, I love my life,
10:54and I don't think that I would want to take that away
11:02from whoever's growing inside of me.
11:07So I want to have this baby,
11:10and I want to give it to you too.
11:17Will you at least think about it?
11:22I don't even believe I'm considering this.
11:26You're considering it?
11:29Yeah.
11:29Eve, thank you.
11:34That means everything to me, to us.
