00:00Neighbors, everybody needs good neighbors. With a little understanding, you can find the perfect blend.
00:16Neighbors should be there for one another. That's when good neighbors become good friends.
00:46You've got to believe me. He forced his way into my bed. I did not use force. I thought it was you. How dare you? Henry, didn't you tell Harold about the change of rooms? I fell asleep. Sorry. Oh, Henry, how could you? No harm done, Harold. No harm done. He touched me. Oh, Harold. Oh, it was just a little affectionate patch. Well, affectionate because I thought it was you, my love.
01:11Ah, looks like the truth's that big guy. It's obvious Mrs. Mengel drives you crazy. Oh, man. I'll thank you to show a little respect. My blood runs cold when I think of what might have happened if I hadn't woken up. Oh, yes, mine too. Now, come on, Casanova. Grab your gear and let's go to bed. Had enough excitement for one night. If you will all leave the room, please, I will put my trousers on. Go on. Go on.
01:36Get off, John.
01:53Todd ought to be home by now. I mean, look at the time. Remember what Scott and Paul were like at his age. Teenage boys have an uncanny knack of losing track of the time.
02:02Any sign?
02:03No. How's Katie?
02:05Sleep? Poor thing. She's still pretty fluey.
02:11Jim, I am sure Todd said he was going to Gary Ling's.
02:14Well, we know that they haven't seen Hyden or Air of him.
02:16I'm really worried. Do you think we should call the police?
02:18Oh, there must be a few of his friends that we haven't tried yet.
02:21I've tried everyone I can think of.
02:22It just isn't like Todd. I mean, what if something's happened to him?
02:24Hang on. Let's not panic. Helen's right. There's probably some simple explanation.
02:28I don't care about simple. It had just better be good. I am worried sick.
02:31Oh, thank God. What are you all looking at?
02:36You, mate.
02:37Todd, where have you been? Do you know what time it is?
02:40We were just about to call the police. I really wish you wouldn't worry, you know. I'm alright, but I'm pretty tired. I might go to bed.
02:47Hold on a minute. Where were you until this hour?
02:49I told you I was at Gary's.
02:51Not.
02:55Weren't you guys cop it if Mrs. Mangle finds you here?
02:58Oh, we're not going to tell her, are we?
02:59Hey, how was the look on Harold's face?
03:03Mads? I'm innocent.
03:05He looked pretty guilty to me.
03:07Guilty as sin. Imagine if Mum had caught two of us in bed like that.
03:10Oh, shh, shh.
03:12The olds will be out here if you don't get the noise down.
03:13Now, listen to you, the old married man.
03:16Well, I just don't want the girls to get sprung, that's all.
03:18Oh, we're not tired, are we?
03:19Of course not. Did anyone notice anything about tonight?
03:24It's a full moon.
03:27The tale of the headless vampire.
03:29Oh, the headless vampire. Unreal.
03:31It was a night as black as pitch.
03:33Andy, wait a second. How can it be headless and bite you?
03:37Just listen. Just listen.
03:39I don't reckon this is going to be as scary as the stories Bron and me used to tell.
03:42Get out of it.
03:43I used to make Lenny have nightmares for a week after one of my stories, so just listen.
03:47Huh?
03:48It was a night as black as pitch in the empty house when suddenly, through an open window,
03:53a dark bat-like figure with claws like razor blades, eyes as red as hell,
03:58and a laugh that would make the bravest man wet his action.
04:00Um, excuse me, but how does he laugh if he's got no head?
04:03Mm, and how can he have eyes?
04:05Well, I was just getting to that.
04:06This isn't scary.
04:08Let's have a seance.
04:09We should just go to sleep, actually.
04:11That's a seance.
04:13Yeah, Bron's an expert, aren't you?
04:15Oh, it depends what you want to sum it.
04:17The dead is simple, but if you want something like a poltergeist, I can't give any guarantees.
04:22That sounds cool.
04:24Yeah, let's do it.
04:25Henry.
04:26Come on, Scott.
04:27Oh, it's a sign.
04:30The spirits are willing.
04:31Could be the ghost of Joe Mangle.
04:33What are you talking about?
04:34Joe's not even dead.
04:35Ever tried holding a conversation with him?
04:37Oh, look, come on, guys.
04:39The spirits are all so impatient.
04:41All right, all right.
04:41What do we do?
04:43First, we form a circle.
04:47Come on, Scott.
04:48All right, Henry.
04:51Well, he's obviously been up to something.
04:52Otherwise, why would he lie to us like that?
04:55Beverly's very upset.
04:57Curious, more likely.
04:57I've never seen him more angry with Todd.
05:00The boy better do some fast talking if he wants to get out of this in one piece.
05:03Come on, you're not going to get out of it that easily.
05:06All right, what's the story?
05:07I don't know.
05:08He's been in the bathroom for the last five minutes.
05:10I was just getting ready for bed.
05:11You are not going anywhere until you explain where you've been tonight.
05:14I told you I was at Gary's.
05:15Jim rang Gary Lings.
05:17I'm sorry, mate.
05:17They haven't seen you all night.
05:19You should have cooked up a better alibi than that.
05:21I didn't mean Gary's.
05:23I was with Alex.
05:23You know Alex Burton?
05:25Come on, Todd.
05:26What are you takers for?
05:27Complete idiots.
05:28I rang Alex as well.
05:29This has gone on for long enough.
05:30I want the truth from you, and I want it now.
05:32You stand there knowing that we've all been worried sick and string together lie after lie after lie.
05:45What do you think would happen if Jim or Helen or I started making up stories to deceive each other?
05:50Well?
05:50I don't know.
05:51You don't know.
05:52Well, I'll tell you.
05:53This whole family would just disintegrate.
05:55Just hang on a second, darling.
05:57Perhaps Todd's ready to tell us now.
05:59Todd?
06:01Come on, mate.
06:02No-one's going to bite your head off for telling us the truth.
06:04I was playing the pennies.
06:06You were what?
06:07Hang on.
06:07What do you mean, playing the pennies?
06:09Where?
06:10Down the arcade.
06:11Who took you there?
06:12Nobody.
06:12I went by myself.
06:14Then why did you bother lying to us about it?
06:16I thought you'd crack a man up.
06:17Well, you were right.
06:18I know what goes on at those places, the sort of characters who hang around there.
06:21It was okay.
06:22It was pretty quiet.
06:23Todd, I want you to promise me you will never go there again.
06:27All right.
06:28Now, go to bed.
06:28And if you think you're going to that soccer camp, you've got another thing coming.
06:31But that's not fair.
06:32Bed!
06:33Before you make me do something, we'll both regret.
06:42Are you there, old spirits?
06:45This is so stupid.
06:46I just feel like the biggest jerk.
06:48Shh!
06:48Bronnie's a very sensitive medium.
06:50What if Swancho was a large?
06:51If you're not going to take it seriously, Henry, then we might as well forget it.
06:55Oh, sounds good to me.
06:56Oh, come on.
06:57Scott, where's that generalistic instinct?
06:59I can see the headline now.
07:00My night with the dead.
07:01An exclusive by Scoob Robinson.
07:03Do you guys reckon we could get on with it, please?
07:05Sorry.
07:06Continue, Madam Bron.
07:07Thanks.
07:10Oh, spirits.
07:12I know you can hear me.
07:14Give us a sign.
07:15Oh, did you see that?
07:18Did you see that?
07:20They're here.
07:22If you ask me, it's probably Joe's wiring.
07:23Oh, Paul, it's a sign for sure, isn't it, Bronnie?
07:25I don't know.
07:27What's going on?
07:28All the noise.
07:29What are you girls doing here?
07:31You should all be in bed asleep.
07:34We were just actually sitting around talking.
07:36Then the lights went out all of a sudden.
07:38Yeah, Henry said it's got something to do with Joe's wiring.
07:40It wouldn't surprise me in the slightest.
07:42That young man strikes me as being a jack-of-all-trades and master of none.
07:45Wouldn't even surprise me if he didn't have his ticket.
07:47Yeah, well, you can't do anything about it now.
07:49I've got some matches.
07:50Well, as a matter of fact, I've got a box of candles around here somewhere.
07:52Good on you, Harold.
07:53Very resourceful of you.
07:54Oh, well, as we say in the Scouts.
07:55Make your bed!
07:57Yes, exactly.
07:58What's going on out there?
07:59Who turned off the lights?
08:01Your son's wiring's up the crate.
08:03Go back to sleep.
08:04I can't.
08:05If I don't put my face cream on after the trauma I've been through,
08:08I'll make up with a thousand new wrinkles.
08:10Harold, would you go and get the old bitty one of those candles?
08:12Otherwise, none of us are going to get in his sleep.
08:13Very well.
08:14And do try and control yourself this time, big guy.
08:19Oh!
08:19What does he think he's doing going to those sorts of places?
08:26Doesn't he realise the sort of trouble he could get into?
08:28The main thing is that he's home safely.
08:30Here we are.
08:31Just what the doctor ordered.
08:32I have seen dozens of kids born into casualty from those so-called fun places.
08:37They get into fights, underage drinking, drugs, God knows what.
08:41Come on, darling.
08:41Let's not make too much of this.
08:43I used to go into snooker parlours when I was Todd's age, and I'm all right.
08:45Look at me.
08:46Jim, it's a totally different kettle of fish these days.
08:49Besides, I'm sure you were responsible.
08:51Jim responsible?
08:53Who?
08:54Alan's right.
08:55Teenage boys and the idea of being responsible seldom go hand in hand.
08:59Look, I know I get upset, but it's only because I care about him.
09:03We know, darling.
09:04We all care about him.
09:05But he's home now, safe.
09:07And it's late.
09:08We all need some sleep.
09:09Yes, I'm exhausted.
09:16Here you are.
09:17For God's sake, don't burn the place down.
09:20Don't speak to me in that tone.
09:21I'm not a child.
09:23This has been one of the most uncomfortable, most harrowing nights of my life.
09:27By some miracle, I managed to get to sleep earlier on this horrid blow-up mattress,
09:32only to be woken by the roving hands of your philandering husband.
09:37Well, beggars can't be choosers, I suppose.
09:40I imagine these exciting moments are few and far between for you these days.
09:44You may find this amusing, Mrs Bishop, but I can assure you that I do not.
09:49Let's let sleeping dogs lie, shall we?
09:52I mean, it was fairly traumatic for Harold, too.
09:55He was too embarrassed to even bring you the blasted candle.
09:58I wouldn't even allow him into my room again anyway.
10:02Look, it's very late, and I don't intend to stand around here arguing about some silly mistake.
10:07Good night.
10:10Riff ruff.
10:12Give us another sign, oh spirits.
10:16Please?
10:20Oh, come on, guys.
10:21This is just a total waste of time.
10:23Let's get some sleep.
10:24Maybe the dead of death.
10:26Wouldn't that be a bummer?
10:26You not only lose your life, but your hearing goes as well.
10:30You're a sick man, Henry.
10:32Scott's right, it's getting late.
10:34I don't believe I'm hearing this.
10:36Where's your sense of adventure?
10:38It's because we're in a strange place, that's why it's not working.
10:41You reckon?
10:42Of course.
10:43You're going to need help, Bronnie.
10:45Call Constance.
10:46Constance?
10:47Constance Bridgewater.
10:48She was an old maid who lived in Narrabri.
10:50After years of living alone, she finally met Mr. Wright and they were about to get married.
10:54Anyway, one night they were out walking.
10:56The guy trips and gets his head run over by a horse and carriage.
10:59Blood everywhere.
11:01Constance saw it all and was so upset she killed herself.
11:05Ever since, her ghost has roamed the paddocks around Narrabri, dressed in a long white robe with a look of ghastly horror on her face.
11:15Pull the other one.
11:17You'll see.
11:19Go on, Bron.
11:20Call Constance.
11:23All right.
11:25Everyone close their eyes.
11:27This is absolutely the last time.
11:29Hold hands.
11:30Constance, Constance Bridgewater, we need your help.
11:42I summon you.
11:54Last night was hard enough without all that tomfoolery from you young people.
11:58I was very disappointed in all of you.
11:59Harold, it wasn't even my fault.
12:01I wanted to go to sleep.
12:02I'll have a word with those young girls leave.
12:06How's it looking, Henry?
12:08A flea graveyard.
12:09Still won't be able to go inside until the summer.
12:11I must say that all this is such a blasted nuisance.
12:14Then you can say that again.
12:15Where are you laugher up to?
12:16I'm just going to the library.
12:18Harold's going to get a paper.
12:20After last night, what I need is a relaxing day.
12:23Me three.
12:24Still, you've got to admit, it did have its funny side.
12:27I haven't laughed so much for a long time.
12:29The look on your face when Mrs. Mangle grabbed you.
12:32Well, at least I didn't scream.
12:35I was just playing along.
12:37You don't think I fell for that gay stuff, do you?
12:39Henry, I did not see the funny side of that debacle last night.
12:43It wasn't our idea.
12:44Yes, well, I'll discuss it later.
12:50Somehow I think the girls are going to cop it.
12:52Oh, don't worry about the big guys and old softy from way back.
12:56What's happening at the library?
12:57Oh, just doing a bit of research.
12:59Let's fucking stay awake.
13:01Scott, are you coming?
13:04Yeah, all right, I'm coming, Harold.
13:05Just wait a second.
13:08Unbelievable, isn't he?
13:09See you.
13:10See you.
13:10See you.
13:10How are you, me old jiner?
13:26Sleep tight?
13:27Oh, I wouldn't mention that subject of all you, Joe.
13:30Come to think of it, you do look a bit the worst.
13:31Where did you have a party or something last night?
13:33Well, it's a bit hard to have a party in the dark.
13:35You're wiring clang.
13:36Are you joking?
13:38Oh, all these things happen.
13:39Yeah, especially when you're involved, I'm starting to learn.
13:42If it wasn't for that flea-infested carpet,
13:44none of this would have happened in the first place.
13:46Speaking of which, you check for houses?
13:47Yeah.
13:48Are they all right?
13:49Yeah.
13:50Well, what are you whinging about?
13:51All your troubles will be over, see.
13:53Still, I get your point.
13:54I'm feeling real bad about it.
13:56You know what I can do for you?
13:58I can get you the most high-tech, modern, up-to-date
14:02burglar alarm system on the market.
14:04Don't ask me where I got it.
14:05I'm not going to tell you.
14:06Burglar alarm.
14:08Too right.
14:09Movement detectors are light.
14:10When it goes off, it'll wake the dead.
14:13Forget it.
14:14All right.
14:14Suit yourself.
14:16I'll sell it to Mum.
14:18Don't you blame me if you come home one night
14:20and your house is empty, though.
14:25I reckon I'm useless.
14:27Woo!
14:30Hello, Henry.
14:31Oh, good day, Mrs. D.
14:32Oh, you look like something the cat dragged in.
14:34Yeah, pretty rough night.
14:36Yes, it must be the full moon.
14:38It was a pretty rough night in the Robinson household, too.
14:41Morning.
14:42How are you?
14:43I didn't sleep too well.
14:45Still worried about Todd?
14:46Hmm.
14:46I can't for the life of me work out why he behaved like that.
14:50Yeah, I know.
14:52Don't you think you might have been a bit hard on him?
14:55No, I do not.
14:56Apart from going off to some pinball parlour, he lied to us.
14:59Look, all I'm saying, well, Todd hasn't exactly had an easy life so far.
15:04Maybe we should make a bit more of an effort, be a bit more tolerant.
15:08More tolerant?
15:09I've bent over backwards for that boy, Jim.
15:11I'm not making any accusations, and if I were, I'd be the biggest culprit.
15:14I was far too hard on him when he first arrived.
15:16Now, I think we should spend a bit more time with him, be a bit more sensitive to his
15:24needs.
15:24Well, he certainly shouldn't need to be out playing pinball till all hours of the night.
15:28I agree.
15:29That's why I think something more constructive like this soccer camp would be good for him.
15:35So you think I should just back down and look as weak as water, do you?
15:38I just think that letting Todd go to the soccer camp would be the right decision, but it's
15:42up to you.
15:43I'm not going to undermine your authority.
15:46Oh, Jim, I've made a mess of this.
15:48I feel out of my depth.
15:51Great mother I'll make.
15:53You'll be a wonderful mother.
15:56You haven't had a lot on your mind just lately.
15:58I suppose.
16:00Thanks.
16:01When did you learn to be so clever?
16:02Just naturally.
16:03Brilliant.
16:04Well, look who's got a long face.
16:07I'm okay.
16:08I'm not very hungry, though.
16:09Nonsense.
16:09After last night, you need a good breakfast.
16:12Honey, Bev.
16:14Uncle Jim, I really feel bad about last night.
16:16I'm sorry.
16:23It takes a real man to admit when he's wrong.
16:25You know, we were only angry because we care about you and hurt because you deceived us.
16:31Yeah, I know.
16:32And I understand about you not letting me go to the soccer camp.
16:35Well, maybe I was a little bit too tough about that.
16:39You mean I can go?
16:40On one condition.
16:41You promised to be honest with us in the future.
16:43No more lies.
16:44Rachel.
16:45Thanks, Aunty, babe.
16:48Where's the milk?
16:49I left it right here.
16:50It's in the esk.
16:51You're in my way.
16:52Yeah, you're in my way.
16:53You put it in here.
16:54I did.
16:55The place for everything and everything in this place.
16:57Why, then.
16:59Morning.
17:00Sorry we slept in.
17:02Oh, that's all right.
17:02It's impossible to get breakfast in this place anyway.
17:04I must say, I'm very disappointed in you girls after last night.
17:10Oh, we're only playing.
17:11That's just it.
17:13The spirit world is not a playground for irresponsible young girls.
17:16Oh, that's rich after your little episode with the tea leaves.
17:19There's no comparison whatsoever.
17:22My ability to lift the veil of this temporal existence and see into the misty future is a God-given gift.
17:29You girls were dabbling in an area that can be extremely dangerous.
17:34Madam Nell.
17:38Oh, no.
17:40Oh, the two slices ruined.
17:42Why didn't you check?
17:43I thought you were getting your third eye on it.
17:45There's a rubbish bin.
17:46Oh, Harold, put it out the back.
17:48Be prepared.
17:49Oh, the sooner I get back to my own house, the better.
17:54Thanks for sticking out for us.
17:56Just because I took your side just now doesn't mean I'm too pleased about last night.
18:00And incidentally, Harold wants to have a talk with a pair of you.
18:02He is not impressed.
18:04We're sorry.
18:05I reckon if there were any ghosts around one, look at Mrs. Mangle and they would have shot the roof for sure.
18:09That's enough, young lady.
18:11Mrs. Mangle just has to put more effort into her beauty routine than others, that's all.
18:18Whoa, someone burnt the toast.
18:20Yes, your mother.
18:21Found the cause of your probs last night.
18:22Oh, yeah, she's out the back.
18:24Hey?
18:24No, loose wire.
18:26Million to one shot, but if anyone tried to fix it last night, they would have got a nasty shock, I reckon.
18:29Your mum had a bit of a shock last night as it was.
18:33What do you mean?
18:34She all right?
18:35Oh, no, Joe, don't take any notice of them, Joe.
18:37We had a disturbed night.
18:38That's all.
18:38Your mum's fine.
18:39What happened?
18:40Mr. Bishop snuck into her room and got into bed with her.
18:45A what?
18:47Yes.
18:48Then he patted her where the sun never shines and she started yelling like a banshee.
18:51Henry, that's enough.
18:52I'd never have picked your mum for screamer.
18:56That dirty mongrel.
18:57Well, I'm going to have a go at him.
18:58Joe?
18:59Joe, don't spit the dummy.
19:00It was a harmless mistake.
19:01All right, now you've done it.
19:03Now let's go before it's too late.
19:11Who are you?
19:14Hello, Joe.
19:15How are you this morning?
19:16I've read about your type.
19:18You should be locked up, you dirty old divo.
19:21I don't know what you're talking about.
19:23No, you wouldn't, Mr. Roly-poly innocent face.
19:27I'm talking about last night, you and my mum.
19:29Oh, yes, a most embarrassing mistake.
19:32Yeah, it was a mistake and you made it, mate.
19:35Here.
19:35What are you doing?
19:36I never hit a bloke with glasses, even if he is a worm.
19:39Hit!
19:40Joe!
19:41Stop it!
19:42No, no, no, no.
19:43You don't understand.
19:44I'm going to knock your block off, lover boy.
19:46I'm going to knock your block off, lover boy.
20:16I'm going to knock your block off, lover boy.
20:20I'm going to knock your block off.
20:20I'm going to knock your block off, lover boy.
20:22I'm going to knock your block off, lover boy.
20:24Neighbors, everybody needs good neighbors.
20:30With a little understanding, you can find the perfect plan.
20:38Neighbors should be there for one another.
20:46That's when good neighbors become good friends.
