00:00Previously on Neighbours.
00:02So don't sell them. Let me help you.
00:04It's almost a million dollars.
00:06Krista, the reason I pitted you and Annalise against each other
00:09is because I honestly thought that it would bring out the best of both of you.
00:13Annalise has just checked out.
00:15She's giving us both a little bit of space.
00:17The expo's just over a week away.
00:19And we've both got a lot of work to do.
00:23It feels like we've come back to each other.
00:26I want you.
00:28I know that you want me to.
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.
00:55That's when good neighbours keep playing good friends.
01:05Whoah! Look at this. The nice plates are out. Why so fancy?
01:23Well I have finally finished my creation. I'm very happy with the redesign.
01:29And I'm coming first.
01:31And I'm going to be showing you Dad tonight.
01:35And I want to make it a bit special.
01:37Is that why I can smell?
01:39Roast chicken?
01:40Correct.
01:41Well I'm guessing you want me somewhere else.
01:43So I don't crank your style.
01:45If you wouldn't mind.
01:46It's all good.
01:47But only if I can have a sneak peak.
01:49You've just been so secret squirrel about this whole project.
01:53I mean I'm dying to see it Mum.
01:55Please.
01:56If you insist.
01:57Wait wait wait wait.
01:58I.
01:59Okay so if you don't like it I want you to keep that to yourself.
02:03Okay.
02:04I'm really happy.
02:05As if I would rain on your parade Mum.
02:11Oh my God.
02:13Mum this is incredible.
02:14I can't believe you made this.
02:16Thanks sweetheart.
02:17No like it's really good.
02:19Like it doesn't look homemade-ish or amateurish or.
02:22You know what I mean.
02:25This is incredible.
02:27Yes okay.
02:29I'm very proud of what I've done.
02:31Dad's gonna love it.
02:32Oh I hope so.
02:34I would not have been able to do this without his inspiration.
02:37And I really want him to know how much he means to me.
02:40Oh that's so special.
02:52You okay?
02:53I'm amazing.
02:54How are you?
02:55You are amazing.
02:59I'm amazing.
03:00How are you?
03:01You are amazing.
03:15I better go.
03:28I'm getting late.
03:32Oh okay.
03:45Well then.
03:46I'll call you that.
03:47Okay.
03:48I'll be waiting.
03:49Well I'm glad you had a wonderful time away.
03:50But we really did miss you.
04:15We really did miss you.
04:16Yeah, yeah.
04:17Well, I missed you all too.
04:19The best part of going away is the coming home bit.
04:22Yeah.
04:23Okay, great.
04:24Yes, I'll check later.
04:26Bye.
04:26Sorry, everyone.
04:28That was a work call.
04:29Is there a problem?
04:30Just confirming the displays are on track to meet the deadline.
04:33Good.
04:33Good, because the last thing we need is any delay is with Lucy arriving tomorrow.
04:37It's all in hand.
04:38Good, because you know that this is a one and done.
04:41I mean, we don't get a chance to do it again.
04:44Got it covered, Paul.
04:46Hi.
04:53Hello.
04:54I was expecting you ages ago.
04:58Sorry.
04:59Yeah, I should have texted.
05:01Something happen at work?
05:02No, no, I just went for a knock-off drink with the team.
05:06Lost track of time.
05:07Oh, did you have a nice time?
05:09Yeah, yeah.
05:10It's always good for a laugh.
05:12You know what it's like.
05:12Well, have you eaten?
05:15Because I can hit you up some roast chicken.
05:18Yeah.
05:19Yeah, that'd be really nice.
05:20I'm starving.
05:21Well, I'm glad it wasn't work, because I was starting to picture an emergency or something
05:28like that.
05:28Sorry, um, it's actually really quiet in there today.
05:33Well, that's nice for a change.
05:35I'll go and sit down.
05:36This is going to be a minute.
05:37I suppose you've already eaten.
05:38I have, but, um, don't worry.
05:42I'm going to join you for company.
05:43All of your chances holding in the air in front of my breath.
05:56My loyalty isn't here.
05:59I stopped being scared a long time ago.
06:03Electricity flowing through my veins
06:08Won't let you put me out
06:10I'm throwing all that as I know
06:14Walking a lot won't change me
06:17Electricity smokes me complains
06:24Won't let you talk to me
06:25So, how was your private time?
06:28Wait, did you stay here last night?
06:30Yeah, um, yeah, I just added it in my own space.
06:34And?
06:35And what?
06:37What naughty things did you get up to?
06:41Nothing naughty, just boring stuff.
06:43I honestly just had an early night.
06:46Well, whatever you're doing, Holly, it seems to be working, because you look fantastic.
06:50You're right, she does.
06:51She does.
06:52Have you been using that cream I gave you?
06:54Yeah, when I remember.
06:56Well, you're glowing.
06:58I should get a better sleep more often.
07:00Okay, well, don't say that too loud, I'll lose my job.
07:02Oh, I can't like that.
07:04You know, I actually better get going, I'll be late.
07:06Yeah, I've got to get these up to Krista, but I will catch you later.
07:09Catch ya.
07:20Hey, um, did I miss something?
07:22We got something on tonight?
07:24Yeah, I was going to use them last night, but it didn't end up happening.
07:29Oh, what for?
07:31Oh, I just thought we could have a special meal for the big reveal of my finished piece.
07:38Roast chicken.
07:42Anyway, should have teed it up with you first.
07:44You live and you learn.
07:45You live and you learn.
08:15Hey, you are home. I've been knocking on your front door for ages.
08:41Oh, Max, you scared me.
08:44Oh, sorry.
08:45You can't do that. I'm on edge enough already.
08:48Sorry, I wasn't thinking. You okay?
08:50Yeah, just don't do that again.
08:58There's just no way that I would have gone out of beer that I have known.
09:03Andrew, it's not like you missed the moon landing.
09:06There's going to be plenty of other special dinners. It's all good.
09:09Yeah, but it was so obvious that you went to so much trouble. I mean, you've finished your entry piece. That's huge.
09:15See, this is why I didn't tell you last night. You know, I'm glad that you went out and you had a good time with your friends.
09:20You need to decompress with people who understand.
09:23Everything all good?
09:32Yeah, yeah. Just work admin stuff.
09:35Well, why don't we look at the quarterly reports in a few weeks?
09:40You know, once all the excitement's over and done with.
09:43Yeah, of course we can handle two big events at once. It's going to be perfect.
09:47So, why don't you just come down to the expo and enjoy yourself and stop worrying about routine admin.
09:54Oh, alright, fine, fine, fine, Lucy. If that's what you really want, then I'll have them ready for you when you're here.
09:59Okay, see you soon. Bye.
10:05Problem?
10:07No, no, no. It's just Lucy being Lucy.
10:09Woman never rests.
10:10Well, if you need a hand wrangling her while she's here, I'm happy to pitch in and play her with cocktails and gossip.
10:16Thank you, darling. That'd be great. I'll send up a flare if I need it.
10:19Okay.
10:26There you go.
10:27Thanks.
10:31Um, hey, I really am sorry about before you were right. I was thoughtless.
10:35No, I'm sorry for overreacting. You did nothing wrong.
10:39No, no, I deserved it.
10:40Some of it.
10:43Anyway, let me make it up to you.
10:45No, you don't have to do that. Let's just forget that it ever happened.
10:48Or we could use our couple's spa voucher.
10:52Um, Max, I doubt that Sadie will be able to fit us in in such short notice.
10:56I know, I texted her and she said she could squeeze us in in like an hour.
11:00Um, what do you think?
11:04That's a really sweet idea. Thank you.
11:07Yeah?
11:07Awesome. I will text her and let her know we're coming.
11:11Mm-hmm.
11:16So any chance of lunch?
11:18Actually, yes.
11:20I'm well and truly ahead of my to-do list.
11:22Okay.
11:22Well, maybe we can even sit down properly then.
11:25Hmm?
11:27Yes. Actually, yes. Um, sorry. Annalise has just messaged me. She's coming back this afternoon.
11:32How's it all going with the work stuff?
11:35Really good. Yeah. I really like her and I think we would work well together.
11:40Hmm. So, you're saying you might want her as part of the team?
11:45Would you like to know?
11:47Oh. Hmm.
11:50I could have a massage every day but never get it old.
11:52Hmm. You'd be like an overcooked noodle.
11:54No way. It's not possible to be too relaxed.
11:56Uh, yeah. It is. There's some muscles that you don't want to underclench.
12:00Yeah, that's so true.
12:03Oh, my gosh.
12:05Uh, stupid battery.
12:09Oh.
12:11Damn it. I left my charger in the room at the hotel.
12:15When were you at the hotel?
12:18Um, last night.
12:20I just, I couldn't handle being at home with Dad and Susan playing with sex dice and JJ and Dex and Remy all there.
12:28It was just, yeah. So, I decided to buy some privacy for the night.
12:34And I didn't get a booty call?
12:35What's going on?
12:37I was feeling pretty tired. I pretty much just went to sleep.
12:41All right. Well, um, since we're both not working this afternoon, do you want to do something?
12:47I'm sorry. I'm just, I'm not really in the mood.
12:49All this Bowman stuff, I can't stop thinking about it.
12:53Yeah, but we can, we can do something to distract you.
12:56Like, we can go into the city and go see a movie.
12:58Like, whatever you want.
13:00That all sounds really great, but I think I just need to go home and
13:04sleep while everyone's out.
13:06But you should go out.
13:09Yeah. Um, all right.
13:11I might go to the piano bar and see what Tay's up to.
13:16Sorry.
13:17Yeah, well, good.
13:18Um, I'll text you later.
13:19Yeah.
13:19Yeah?
13:20Um, have a good sleep.
13:22Thanks.
13:23Hi.
13:46Hey.
13:48We need to talk.
13:49Okay, well, Annalise will be back soon.
13:54I think she's arriving about the same time as Lucy.
13:56Good, good.
13:57Well, hopefully we can work everything out with her.
13:59Yes, I hope so too.
14:01Uh, I set aside some time to run Lucy through the expo when she arrives.
14:04Oh, no, no, I'll do that.
14:05Well, you're busy.
14:06I mean, she's already started to make unnecessary requests.
14:09Like what?
14:10Oh, she's hassling me about the quarterly report.
14:13We just haven't got time for that.
14:15Okay, well, she probably just wants to look at it while she's here.
14:18Well, she's just going to have to wait, isn't she?
14:20I mean, if you're already doing two jobs, something's going to give.
14:22It's really not a big deal.
14:24Look, I can run the report if she's desperate.
14:26No, I want your focus where it should be.
14:29On the expo and the bronze bell, okay?
14:31Okay, can do.
14:33I've got a meeting, so thank you.
14:34Bye.
14:34Bye.
14:34Bye.
14:35Bye.
14:35Why are you delaying the quarterly report?
14:46Well, I'm not.
14:47You know, it's just Krista's stretched and it's so unnecessary.
14:50Paul.
14:53Everybody's focus and priority should be on the bronze bell right now.
14:57That's all.
14:58Krista has everything under control.
15:00Well, so she says, yeah.
15:01Well, she looks like she does.
15:02I mean, why don't you just let her take the report off your plate?
15:08Okay, whatever you're keeping under wraps, spill it.
15:11Now.
15:14All right, all right.
15:16I use Lasseter's funds to help bail you out.
15:20And Lucy, the second she sees those figures, is going to spoil it.
15:24I'm sorry.
15:26Well, you stole that money to help me.
15:28I thought you sold some shares.
15:31Oh, I'm telling you, you know what the market is like.
15:33I didn't want to sell them at a loss.
15:34Hey, and besides, I own half the company.
15:37Uh, using company funds for private matters is the definition of embezzlement.
15:43I mean, I can't believe you'd risk that for me.
15:47I had to help you out.
15:49And besides, I thought that I'd be able to put the money back before anybody noticed.
15:53Paul, you do realise that if you get caught, you are up for serious criminal charges.
15:59It won't happen again, I promise.
16:05Yeah.
16:05Yeah.
16:07Don't be mad at me.
16:08Polly, I'm not, I'm not.
16:11Well, did you even like the picture?
16:12I don't want to see it.
16:15Look, whatever happened last night, it has to be a one-off, okay?
16:19Why?
16:21You know why.
16:22But we connected last night.
16:26It wasn't just great sex.
16:28You can't cut me off.
16:29I'm married, okay?
16:31I know, but married people change.
16:33They decide that they want different things.
16:36You're allowed to be happy.
16:37Polly, I love my wife.
16:39Then what was last night?
16:41I don't know.
16:42It was us just getting things out of our system.
16:48Look, whatever it was, it's over.
16:54I'm sorry.
16:57It has to be this way, Holly.
16:59There's just way too much at stake.
17:00My whole life.
17:04My family.
17:20Any luck?
17:22There is no way we can pull enough to put back what you talk.
17:26I mean, even if I maxed everything out and put everything into overdraft.
17:30I don't figure as much.
17:31There's no way I can sell Power Road this quickly.
17:35I just wish you'd discussed this with me before doing something so extreme.
17:39Holly, I just wanted to help.
17:43Now, besides, I can see that you don't really want to sell Power Road.
17:48Look, if I had a choice of putting you in this position of selling, I would sell every time.
17:53Well, I guess I misread the situation.
17:55I love that you want to protect me this much, but it would kill me if you got into trouble for this.
18:03No, no, no.
18:04It's not going to come to that.
18:05How can you be so sure?
18:07Darling, I have come through much tighter scrapes than this in the past.
18:10You know that.
18:11I really appreciate what you've done for me, Paul.
18:16But we need to find a way to put this money back, and we need to do it fast.
18:20Yeah.
18:25Sorry I took so long.
18:26I couldn't find the crackers that you wanted.
18:30What do you think?
18:31It's super cheesy.
18:33Mum's going to love it.
18:34I better go start this platter.
18:36Cool.
18:36Hello.
18:41What are you two doing here?
18:42Nothing.
18:44Uh, sorry if I interrupted something.
18:47You weren't meant to be home yet.
18:50Oh, I mean, I can turn around and come back.
18:53It was meant to be a surprise.
18:55I'll go and make the platter.
18:57Thanks.
18:59This looks lovely.
19:02And we were only two minutes away from having a cheese platter.
19:05Oh, no, you didn't have to do that.
19:08Yes, I did.
19:11I ruined your special dinner.
19:12I know this is not the same, but...
19:15I was still hoping to get to see what you made.
19:18Of course you can, Goose.
19:21Thank you for doing this.
19:24It means a lot.
19:27Gosh, now I feel so silly.
19:29I'm all nervous about showing you.
19:31It's amazing.
19:32Oh, it's a bit different to my usual stuff.
19:35But I just...
19:37I don't know.
19:37I pushed myself.
19:39You know, I wanted to do my muse justice.
19:42Go on then.
19:43Stop stalling.
19:44Okay, back in a sec.
19:46All right.
19:46Give me the glasses.
19:56Give me the glasses.
19:57Oh my gosh, it's going to lie here.
19:58Just drink it off you.
20:02Oh, thank you.
20:04Oh my goodness.
20:05This is so exciting.
20:06Am I allowed to look at it?
20:14Go for it.
20:23Oh, when?
20:23I don't know what to say.
20:33You could be like Sadie.
20:35So you can't believe that I made it.
20:36Oh, no, no.
20:41There's so much of you in this.
20:44You definitely made this.
20:47Babe.
20:48Well done.
20:52You should put it on.
20:55I don't know if I'm going to do this justice though.
20:57Andrew, you were my inspiration.
20:58You're the perfect model.
21:01You're the only model I want.
21:08Wow.
21:10Harry Styles ate your heart out.
21:11Yeah?
21:12Yeah.
21:13All right.
21:14Oh, yes, please.
21:15Can you put some more sass in that, please, Miss Styles?
21:17Yeah, okay.
21:17All right.
21:19Oh, babe, you were such a natural.
21:22Well, maybe I'll quit the service and start a new career.
21:26Yeah.
21:27London, Paris.
21:29New York, Erinsborough.
21:32World, here I come.
21:35Wow, you are so good at this.
21:37You know, they should have used you for the expo promotion instead of Holly.
21:55You know I love you, right?
21:56Yeah, of course.
22:00I never, ever doubted that.
22:04Good.
22:04I know I said we couldn't sell this place fast enough, but do you think there's anyone
22:20that would be interested in doing a quick and dirty deal?
22:23Well, then it would all be for nothing.
22:25Keeping you out of jail is not nothing.
22:29What's up?
22:29Lucy has just caught up with Annalise at the airport.
22:32It could be a good thing, though.
22:34Hopefully they'll be so busy talking about old times that Lucy won't notice that I've taken
22:39the funds from Lasseter to bail you out.
22:40I'm sorry, what did you just say?
22:43Coming up on Navas.
22:50$300,000?
22:51From company accounts.
22:53But how did you even do that?
22:55Am I looking at the new management team?
22:58Possibly.
22:59If you want to talk about anything, I'm here.
23:01Uh, Holly, how would you like to be in my photos?
23:04I mean, you and Andrew, you look so good together.
