00:01You know we belong together
00:04Home and away
00:07Irene, what's wrong?
00:08I've been diagnosed with Alzheimer's.
00:11Oh, John, I am so scared.
00:14I can't keep doing all the things I've been doing.
00:18I think it's time that I took a step back from the diner.
00:21John, I have to do it.
00:23Yes, love. I do.
00:30What's all this?
00:34These are all the people that I've cared about over the years.
00:38I'm writing their names on the back of the photos so I don't forget them.
00:43Oh, sorry, love. I've got no time to talk. Honestly, I'm up to my back teeth in orders.
00:48Irene, you don't work here anymore.
00:51I wish I'd seen so much more of the world when I was younger.
00:54So many places I'll never get to visit now.
00:57Your illness doesn't have to dictate what comes next.
00:59You still get to decide that.
01:01I've made a decision. I'm selling the house.
01:03I'm going to travel the world while I still can.
01:05What are you going to do with no home?
01:07When you run out of money, where are you going to live?
01:09I don't know. Say goodbye.
01:11Don't have the words.
01:13Please, guys, don't fight me on this.
01:15You're the most important people in my life.
01:17I want to leave knowing that I've got your love and your support.
01:22I've been through so much together.
01:24Oh, we sure have.
01:25I just knew that everything was going to be alright eventually.
01:28Because you were by my side.
01:30It just feels like the end.
01:31It's because it is, love.
01:33You know what? We should be throwing a party.
01:35A real rip snorter.
01:37If I'm leaving Summer Bay, I am leaving with a bang.
01:41Once in my life, I am absolutely lost for words.
01:44Oh, you don't have to say anything, darling. I know.
01:47No, we just wanted to give you the scent off you deserve.
01:50Guys, thank you so much. Honestly, this means the world to me.
01:55Well, you mean the world to us, Irene.
01:58And it won't hurt from Johnny.
02:00If he doesn't turn up, she's going to be devastated.
02:03Hi, Irene.
02:05Honestly, I thought Alf was going to have kittens when Marilyn's holding romances on the car.
02:23I think one of us needs to let Martha know.
02:26Oh, I'm pretty sure he'll mention it next time they chat in love.
02:31Where's John?
02:32Ah, Justin, he's going to see what the hold up is.
02:35Maybe he's just trying to finish his speech.
02:37Well, you better hurry up. This is his last chance to say goodbye to Irene.
02:42Hey, where are you going?
02:44You didn't see John on your way over, did you?
02:46No. I thought he'd be here by now.
02:48Well, no, he's not here, so I've got to go get him.
02:51What about the gig?
02:53The stage is set up over there. You'd be right to kick off on your own?
02:56Uh, yeah, yeah, sure. How's Leah?
03:00Uh, she's staying strong for Irene. You know, she just wants this day to be perfect.
03:05Do you know how much it means to her?
03:07Sure. Well, you concentrate on John. I'll go check and go.
03:10Thanks, mate.
03:16John, it's me again. Call me when you get this. I've got to know you're okay.
03:24Love, I'm so pleased you were able to come.
03:26Wouldn't miss it for the world.
03:28Now, you, young man, you go and get yourself something to eat and drink.
03:31Have fun.
03:32Hey, Cohen.
03:35Hey, Harper.
03:38You.
03:39What did you say to my boyfriend?
03:41The same thing you said to my ex-boyfriend. You needed somewhere to stay.
03:44Really? Well done, you.
03:46And suddenly you care about people interfering.
03:49So this is payback?
03:50No, I don't see what the big deal is. You basically live in each other's pockets anyway.
03:54The big deal is that he doesn't want to live with me.
03:56How do you know that?
03:57Because we had that discussion and he kiboshed it.
03:59Well, he didn't tell me that.
04:01Yeah, but it's fine. I agree with him. I think it is too soon. I think we've been dating for like five minutes.
04:06Well, I'm sorry.
04:07Hey, well, stop talking.
04:08Hey, you all good?
04:09Yeah, I'm good.
04:10Yeah.
04:11Hey, Theo. Are you going to play us some tunes?
04:16I sure am.
04:17Can't wait.
04:19You know what? I'm going to give John a ring. He's not going to want to miss this.
04:23Irene, why don't you just come over here? I need to tell you something.
04:26No one knows where John is, so Justin's trying to find him.
04:29I mean, he has to be here.
04:30Lyman, Palmer.
04:33Right.
04:36Is Leah okay?
04:37Yeah, look, you know, she's just going to miss you. That's all. And so am I. But you don't have to worry because I promise you I'm going to look after her.
04:46Love, I know that you will both look after each other.
04:49Yeah. It's like you've always looked after us. You've always been there to support me. Irene, we're going to miss you terribly.
04:57Hey, hey, hey. Come on. None of that. This is a time for celebration, love. I just hope John got the memo.
05:06I've been looking for you.
05:12Well, here I am.
05:15You are being missed at the party. Irene's wondering where you are.
05:20Yes, well, I'm not going, Sophie. Here to change my mind. Forget it.
05:35You haven't written a speech. Is that what's going on?
05:37Of course I haven't. How can I?
05:38We're all feeling it. No one wants to say goodbye.
05:40Forget the speech. Come to the party. Spend some time with your friend.
05:41You can leave now.
05:42What am I going to tell Irene?
05:43Well, you're a big boy. You'll think of something.
05:44No, no, no. I'm not going to lie for you.
05:46Come on, John. You've got to do this for her. Just be brave.
05:48Do not tell me what to do, okay? Don't tell me to be brave.
05:52John, sorry.
05:54Where the days belong to never making plans.
06:01We need an ocean view, something new. Escape is on our mind, and there ain't never gonna be a better time.
06:19We need an ocean view, something new
06:23Escape is on our mind
06:25And there ain't ever gonna be a better time
06:29Waiting for the...
06:31You having a good time?
06:32Oh, having a blast.
06:34Oh.
06:37Who's that?
06:39Oh, it's cash.
06:41Oh, him and Eden can't make it, but they send their love.
06:44Oh, that's nice.
06:45Actually, excuse me for a minute, girls.
06:55Hey.
06:56Hey.
06:57You okay?
06:58Usually you're the life of the party.
07:01Yeah, I'm just taking it all in.
07:03Hmm.
07:05I don't think so.
07:06Come on, we're gonna dance.
07:07Oh, yeah.
07:10Right, you, show us what you've got.
07:12Ready?
07:12Ready?
07:15Gonna be a better time
07:18Okay, no more moving, come on.
07:20Come on.
07:21What?
07:21What?
07:23What a day.
07:24Out here on the west coast with my friends
07:28We ain't got no worries
07:34Waiting for the weekend to begin
07:39I'm still not answering his phone.
07:41Justin hasn't got back to me either.
07:43Thank you, guys.
07:44She looks so happy.
07:46Woo!
07:49Come on!
07:51Yeah, she does.
07:55Avoiding her is not gonna make this any easier.
07:58You've made your point.
07:59I go back to the party and leave me be.
08:00But you would do anything for Irene.
08:02Why can't you do this?
08:04Because it's too hard.
08:07Okay?
08:08All right, I'm selfish.
08:09So shoot me.
08:09John, come on.
08:10That's not true.
08:11No, I don't know what my life is gonna look like without her.
08:16She's probably the best mate I've ever had.
08:19Okay.
08:20Okay, and that's gotta be tough.
08:22Yes.
08:22But today is not about you.
08:25Today is about what someone else needs.
08:27Come on.
08:29I can't.
08:29Just tell her I'm sorry.
08:32All right, you tell me this first.
08:33Tomorrow, when you wake up and Irene is gone,
08:35how are you gonna feel
08:36about not saying goodbye to her?
08:40Trust me, if you don't turn up today,
08:42you're gonna regret it.
08:42Can I get you anything?
08:53No, love.
08:54All good, all good.
08:55I've eaten my fill.
08:56I've danced my feet off.
08:58And now I'm gonna sit down over there in the choir, okay?
09:04Are you okay?
09:05I think so.
09:06Hey, I mean, your friends sure know how to throw a bon voyage party.
09:18They should take notes.
09:20They sure do.
09:24Oh, boy.
09:26This is certainly starting to get real.
09:29Yep.
09:30Must have a way of doing that.
09:31Mm-hmm.
09:32What is going on with you two?
09:38Nothing.
09:39Why, did Danny say something?
09:41Mm.
09:43Yeah, seriously, did she say something?
09:49Oh, my God, Father.
09:51It's about flipping time.
09:55I'm so sorry.
09:57You're big galoot.
10:00I'm just glad you're here.
10:02Hey, this really is a beautiful morning, isn't it?
10:18Oh, absolutely glorious.
10:21Hey, look what I found wandering the streets.
10:24Hey.
10:24Sorry to crash your party.
10:26Oh, don't be silly, love.
10:27You're very welcome.
10:28Grab a seat.
10:29Well, I didn't want to leave without saying goodbye.
10:31Oh, thank you.
10:41Um.
10:42Uh-oh.
10:44Can I have a bit of shush, please, if you don't mind?
10:47No.
10:47I have some words I would like to say.
10:54Irene, I was asked to write a speech for today, and to be frank, I struggled with it because
11:00I just didn't know how to say goodbye, you've changed a lot of lives, not just mine, and I guess now it's time that you live your life.
11:14You've always seen the absolute best in people, and you taught us to find that in ourselves, you taught us that we're stronger when we stick together, and I know that I speak for everybody here when I say, we really don't want you to leave.
11:34Hear, hear, hear.
11:35Hear, hear.
11:37Summer Bay is not going to be the same without you, but I know this is what you want, and I, for one, could not be happier for you.
11:50To the bravest woman I've ever met, we applaud you, Irene Roberts.
11:54To Irene.
11:56Irene.
11:56Hello, hello, hello.
12:17Can we have your attention for a moment, please?
12:20Uh, Irene, we've all been talking about what you mean to us, and how much we're going to miss you.
12:29So I guess all that's left to say is, we all think you're amazing.
12:33Aww.
12:34Woo!
12:40When all you want to do is rock
12:43But you don't want to bear the shock no more
12:49When it's just sweat that fills your eyes
12:52You want to dance with me?
12:53I would love to dance with you.
12:55Delated feelings that you have denied
12:59When every wolf is at your door
13:02Just like a hundred times before
13:04But you don't want to be here
13:05You know, you had me worried.
13:07For a while there, I didn't think you were going to show up.
13:09Yeah.
13:10Yeah.
13:11I'm sorry.
13:12Cause you were amazing
13:15And we did amazing
13:20Come live with me
13:22I will bring you blueberry muffins every morning
13:26Freshly baked, just as you like it
13:28Is that really what you want?
13:30Cause you were amazing
13:34And we did amazing things
13:41And I wouldn't change it
13:45Cause we were amazing things
13:51Come on, let's go
13:55Oh, no, no, no, no
13:55Up to get, come on
13:56Come on
13:57Come on, up to get
13:58Come on
13:58Come on
13:59Come on
14:00Come on
14:00Come on
14:01Come on
14:01One dance
14:06No
14:07Plastic mountain at your feet
14:09Divided streets now
14:13To find a scene
14:16When every wolf is at your door
14:19Just like a hundred times before
14:21But you don't want to leave the air
14:25Cause you were amazing
14:32And we did amazing
14:37Things
14:38And I would change it
14:42Cause we were amazing
14:46Plain
14:48Hey love, can you do something for me?
15:12When I leave, would you mind giving these please to everyone?
15:19Of course I will.
15:21Thank you love, I've always been able to lie on you.
15:37Excuse me everyone, can I interrupt for a minute?
15:42I just want to say thank you all so very much for coming here today and celebrating with me.
15:51It means the world to me.
15:53Leah, it was perfect.
15:55I have to leave now, but I want you all to stay here.
16:03More music, more talking, more doing what you enjoy.
16:10Because making these memories is honestly the most important thing that you'll ever do.
16:16Bye bye darling.
16:25I love you.
16:30Send us a million photos.
16:38I love you.
16:40Poor sweetheart.
16:42I love as much as I love you.
16:45John.
16:46Wait.
16:47What are you doing?
16:48Come walk with me.
16:50We love you.
16:51Bye.
16:52Back at you.
16:54Bye.
16:55Bye.
16:56You know for a horrible minute there I didn't think you were going to turn up.
17:10Well for a minute there I didn't think I was going to.
17:27I'm so sorry.
17:28Love I understand.
17:30It's hard for me too.
17:33But there is one more thing.
17:36It's probably a bit presumptuous of me but if you can tear yourself away from the surf club for a few weeks.
17:44What's this?
17:49It's a ticket to Paris.
17:52I want you to meet me at the Eiffel Tower.
17:54Oh Irene.
17:55So you see it's not goodbye.
17:59It's au revoir.
18:03I will be there.
18:04You mark my words.
18:05Come hell or high water I will be there.
18:08I'll see you around.
18:14I'll see you around.
18:25Hi.
18:34Hey.
18:35I know things have been awkward between us but I just wanted to say congratulations on the house.
18:40I have so many really happy memories in that house.
18:43I hope you do too.
18:47Thanks, Harper.
18:55That looked quite friendly.
18:58Yeah.
19:00If Irene can accept her reality, then I should be able to too.
19:13Good afternoon, madam. I will be your chauffeur today.
19:35Oh, my God, Father. When you said you were driving me to the city, I had no idea you were taking me in this.
19:41Right this way, please, ma'am.
19:43You ready?
19:52Mum, I cannot wait.
20:00And I never wanna leave, but I know that I can't stay.
20:06And there's a world beyond the ocean that is calling me away.
20:14I can't tell you how much our friendship means to me and how hard it is for me to say goodbye.
20:21But I'm going, so you'll remember me as I am now. Still full of life and love and hope.
20:31I'll be somewhere out there over the horizon.
20:32I want you to remember that life moves so quickly.
20:41So make every moment count.
20:42So make every moment count.
20:44Every single moment.
20:46Don't waste a minute.
20:48Don't waste a minute.
20:49Don't waste a minute.
20:50Don't waste a minute.
20:51Don't waste a minute.
20:52Be brave.
20:53Take risks.
20:54Love hard and laugh loud.
20:56It's good for the soul.
20:57It's good for the soul.
21:02Don't be scared of change.
21:04You never know what's around the next corner.
21:07Make sure you live your biggest life.
21:14Don't let anyone tell you you're not worthy of that.
21:20And most importantly, take care of each other.
21:29At the end of the day, that's what matters.
21:32Friends and family.
21:35Family.
21:48No regrets?
21:51None, love.
21:54Life's too short.
22:05Welcome to Paradox.
22:29Better keep the ones that we love close.
22:35I'll do whatever it takes to keep my daughter safe.
23:00It's not over. It's only just beginning.
23:05I love you.
23:13We wouldn't be anywhere else, love.
23:18I can't wait to see what the future holds.
23:23I can't wait to see what the future holds.
23:25Are you happy to see what the future holds?
23:26All of the good things, we've got to see what the future holds.
23:29Everybody, you've got to see what the future holds.
23:33We're here.
23:35We're here.
23:37We're here.
23:38We're here.
