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.
00:34Dad! Stop it! No, no, no, no, you don't understand.
00:38I'm gonna knock your block off, lover boy.
00:41Hey! Hey yourself! Don't you think it's time you grew up and stopped bullying people?
00:47You need to pick on somebody who can fight back.
00:49What's stopping him? He's big and ugly enough to look after himself. That's right.
00:54You stay out of this, Harold. If you keep this up, you're gonna have me to deal with.
00:57Oh, well, I thought you'd be happy for me to job him. I'm wondering you didn't do it yourself.
01:01What?
01:02Well, doesn't it worry he's been in bed with another woman?
01:04Oh, for heaven's sake!
01:06Well, it worries me, especially when it's my mother.
01:08This whole thing is just a stupid mistake.
01:10That's right.
01:11Your mother insisted that I swap beds with her. Unfortunately, nobody bothered to tell Harold, did they, Henry?
01:16Well, no.
01:17No, and Harold thought he was in his own room. It's as simple as that.
01:20Sounds a bit far-fetched to me.
01:22Don't you think the idea of Harold getting into bed with your mother's far-fetched?
01:25I mean, he may not be Mr. Universe, but he's certainly not that desperate.
01:28That's right.
01:29What do you mean, I might not be Mr. Universe?
01:32Why didn't you tell me this before?
01:35You wouldn't listen.
01:37Please let me go now. I'm not going to hurt him. I promise.
01:42Oh, you're a lucky boy, Harold. Having your own personal bodyguard look after you.
01:47I don't have to put up with this.
01:50Come on, big God. Don't push your luck. I'm going to only rescue you so many times in one day.
01:54I did not ask to be rescued.
01:56No, no, no. Of course you didn't. Come on back inside.
01:58Well, I didn't.
01:59Well, it doesn't matter. Come on.
02:00I will come in when I am, while I'm ready. When I am well and ready.
02:10Maybe we should go and see what's going on.
02:12Let Henry and his mum sort it out. You've caused enough trouble already.
02:16Oh, pick on me, why don't you? I just told Joe what happened. It's not my fault he hasn't got a sense of humour.
02:21Everything all right?
02:24Yeah, yeah. Thanks to Mum. Get this. Joe's just about to lay one on Harold.
02:28And then, faster than a speeding bullet, everyone in tall buildings in a single bound. Yes, it's super mum.
02:34All right, Henry. Knock it off.
02:36And when Harold decides to come back in, don't tease him about it, all right?
02:40Well, that's a quiet. Enjoy his burnt toast and a little play.
02:44I see you girls have tidied up. I thought you might like to come to church with me.
02:49Oh, I'd love to, Mrs Mengel, but I promised Dez I'd help him out with Jamie while he does his housework.
02:55Oh, Jamie does housework.
02:57Henry, you clown.
02:58I promise to.
02:59I see. It takes two of you to mind one little baby, does it?
03:04Oh, we take turns in doing it.
03:06Very well. It seems that you and I, Joe, are left to represent our household at morning devotions.
03:13No way, Mum. Not dragging me to church. Against me religion.
03:16That is not funny.
03:18And would you stop that? It's disgusting and unhygienic.
03:23I'm hungry.
03:24Well, perhaps if your mother could cook you a proper meal instead of letting you tear the bread to pieces.
03:29It's a bit difficult to cook a proper meal when you've been hogging the stove all morning.
03:33Well, at least you could teach him how to use a bread knife.
03:37Oh, Mr Bishop, you're not hurt.
03:42Well, no, of course I'm not. And I do wish people would not make mountains out of molehills.
03:46What does she mean, Mr Bishop, and why would you be hurt?
03:48No reason, Mrs M. Not while supermums around to drive away the forces of evil.
03:54Henry, I am sick and tired of your childish attempts at humour.
03:57It's not fair taking it on Henry. She's trying to help.
04:00Yeah, well, I can do without that sort of help. Thank you very much.
04:03What is everyone talking about?
04:05Oh, don't worry about it. Now, Harold dear, why don't you sit down quietly and relax and read the paper?
04:09I will read the paper when I'm good and ready, thank you. Will you please stop mothering me?
04:13Would someone tell me why is Mr Bishop so upset?
04:18I've got a go, Mrs Mangle. Yeah, me too.
04:21Oh, really?
04:22I'm worried, just get ready for church. You'll be light.
04:24Nonsense. There's plenty of time.
04:26I want to know what is going on.
04:29There is nothing going on.
04:34You ought to be careful, Bronnie. You heard what Harold said. Guys don't like being mothered.
04:38What are you talking about?
04:40The way you keep rushing to Henry's defence all the time.
04:42Of course, Henry is pretty slow to notice someone's got a thing going for him,
04:46but maybe you should ease up anyway and play it a bit cooler.
04:49Sorry, I don't know what you're talking about, Chez.
04:51Sure.
04:53Henry's a good friend.
04:55I'll stick up for any of my friends if they need it.
04:57Sure, Bronnie, whatever you say.
04:59I'm just going to go over to the Robins and see what Nick's doing.
05:03If I hear any dumb stories about me and Henry, I know where they've come from.
05:07Hey, your secret's safe with me.
05:10There's no secret.
05:12Sure.
05:24Hi.
05:25Hi.
05:26How'd it go?
05:27What?
05:28The night.
05:29Oh, at number 30, you mean?
05:30Yeah.
05:31A bunch of people all under one roof.
05:32Total disaster.
05:33Well, no actual bloodshed.
05:34Well, we came pretty close this morning, but no, everyone survived.
05:38Hey, wow, did Mrs. Daniels paint this?
05:41Yeah, it's pretty cool, isn't it?
05:42I'm not sure it's the way I'd do it, though.
05:44Oh, the kettle.
05:45What do you mean?
05:46Well, if I was painting it, I'd go for Paul Moore the way I see him.
05:50You know, the high-pressure exec type.
05:52Lots of clock shapes in the background.
05:54The designs from the $100 note.
05:56Just sort of misting down.
05:58You know, time is money kind of thing.
06:00Want a coffee?
06:01Yeah, thanks.
06:02Hey, that's unreal.
06:03Why don't you do it?
06:04Yeah, I suppose I could.
06:05I've got to do something for Helen this weekend for an art class assignment.
06:07Well, this would be perfect.
06:08Go for it.
06:09Oh, you reckon?
06:10Yeah.
06:11Okay, I will.
06:12There's a photo of Paul in the bedroom.
06:13I could use that.
06:14Great.
06:15I can't wait to see how it turns out.
06:16Ew.
06:17Thanks for the idea.
06:18Anytime.
06:21I can't tell you how glad I'll be to get home away from the flying ears and eyes of Nell
06:25Mangle.
06:26Oh, no.
06:27I'd have to go to the moon to do that, wouldn't I?
06:28But at least I won't be under the same war, Professor.
06:31Oh, Harold, don't strain yourself.
06:32You'll hurt your back.
06:33I've always got it.
06:34The magic.
06:35Here.
06:36There.
06:37You know, I really don't know how you managed to board with her.
06:39Think of those poor girls.
06:40What must their lives be like?
06:42I could have done that myself, you know.
06:44Hmm?
06:45I don't need help with every trivial little thing.
06:46I am not a child.
06:48Well, of course you're not.
06:50Oh, Harold, it's all this nonsense with Joe Manuel, isn't it?
06:53Well, don't worry about it.
06:54There was no harm done.
06:56Yes, there was.
06:57To my pride.
06:58Go on, admit it.
06:59You think I'm a weakling, don't you?
07:00Oh, Harold.
07:01That sort of thing's not important to me.
07:02I love you just the way you are.
07:04You do think I'm a weakling?
07:06No.
07:07You do?
07:08You're coddling me all the time.
07:09You're making me feel inadequate.
07:10I'm not.
07:11Well, what about just now?
07:12That strap.
07:13I was perfectly capable of doing that myself.
07:15Oh, darling, of course you were.
07:17But if I do these little things for you, it's just because I like doing things for you.
07:22If you don't like it, if you feel smothered, well, all right, I won't do it anyway.
07:25Good.
07:26Good.
07:27Now we've got that cleared up, let's get out of here before anything else happens here.
07:31You take those.
07:32No.
07:33I feel guilty about dragging you out of here on a Sunday.
07:34You didn't drag me.
07:35I volunteered.
07:36Oh, just the same.
07:37Honestly, Des, being here is absolute bliss after all the insanity at number 30.
07:38I can imagine.
07:39I doubt it.
07:40Whoops.
07:41I could tell you about it, but I think you really had to be there.
07:44Didn't you, huh?
07:45Had to be there.
07:46Is Mike coming home for lunch?
07:48No, he'd be up all day studying.
08:01How is he?
08:03Fine.
08:04Do you think he's feeling a bit better about us breaking up?
08:06If you're wondering whether he'd be holding a grudge, don't worry.
08:10Mike's not the tide.
08:11I hope I did the right thing.
08:13I mean, he's really nice instructor, but no.
08:15It was fantastic.
08:16I mean, he's a really nice guy.
08:18We didn't see him right for each other.
08:20I couldn't see any point in getting more serious.
08:22You did the right thing.
08:23Either it's right with somebody, or it isn't.
08:27Problem is, how do you know?
08:28For sure, I mean.
08:31I don't know about anybody else, but with Daph,
08:34I knew as soon as I laid eyes on her.
08:36Yeah.
08:38I wish you'd tell Sharon that.
08:40Give her a chance.
08:42Sharon and Nick are just kids.
08:43It's not as if they're going to spend the rest of their lives together.
08:45No, I didn't mean that.
08:47She's got it in her head that I've got to think of her Henry.
08:50Henry?
08:51Yeah.
08:52Crazy, isn't it?
08:54I don't know.
08:55Is it?
08:56Yeah.
08:57I think so.
08:59I don't know.
09:00I like Henry.
09:01He's a nice guy.
09:03He's fun.
09:04He's not too serious like Mike was sometimes.
09:07God knows we've got a lot more in common than me and Mike.
09:10Sharon might be on to something, Nick.
09:12No.
09:13It's hard to take Henry seriously.
09:16He's just a big kid.
09:17Yeah, not as much as he'd like to pretend.
09:20I just don't want to start anything again unless I'm really sure.
09:24I want to be like you and know it's right from the word go.
09:27I'm pretty serious, Brian.
09:29You're 18 years old.
09:30You're just finding out about people, about life.
09:33Just take things as they come.
09:35Don't put so much pressure on yourself.
09:36I'll get it.
09:41Dez.
09:43Thanks.
09:44I guess I needed to talk.
09:45No worries.
09:46Just call me Dear Georgette.
09:47Oh, good day, mate.
09:51Oh, good morning, Dez.
09:52I thought I'd let you know after church I might pop down and open up the coffee shop for a while.
09:56Well, we usually only open on a Sunday if there's a conference on at Lacerda's.
09:59Oh, yes, yes, I know that.
10:00But I thought now that I'm a partner I should be looking for ways to improve the business.
10:03Well, I don't know if this could be it.
10:06Yeah, I know.
10:07We'll give it a go.
10:08Nothing to lose.
10:09Well, that's what I thought.
10:10Nothing mentioned, nothing gained, eh?
10:12Well, I'll let you know how it goes.
10:14All right.
10:14Oh, yeah, the partnership papers there should be ready to sign on Monday.
10:18Oh, fine, fine.
10:20How will do?
10:21You all right?
10:22Oh, just a little tired, that's all.
10:25We all had a rather uncomfortable night at number 30.
10:29Guess I'll see you later.
10:30Yeah, you are.
10:32See you, mate.
10:33I don't know why you're being so difficult a little time in church would do with the world.
10:38Of course.
10:38And you can meet all my friends.
10:40I don't like crowds, Mum.
10:41I'm claustrophobic.
10:42We're hardly crowded, dear.
10:44And we can sit off to one side and away from everybody.
10:47I'll be most put out if you don't.
10:49Oh, for heaven's sake, stop bullying Joe if he doesn't want to go.
10:53I'm not bullying him.
10:54I'm merely pointing out what's in his best interest.
10:57Some of us have a little concern for our family's spiritual welfare.
11:00What's that supposed to mean?
11:01Well, of course, we all know that the church hasn't been built, that we'll ever see your Henry in it.
11:06You think that, do you?
11:07I don't think it.
11:08I know it.
11:09Well, you don't know as much as you think, you know, because Henry's already agreed to go to church with me, haven't you, love?
11:13Oh, so we'll ask the Reverend Samson to hold a seat for you.
11:19Obviously only one.
11:23Well, I suppose I could go.
11:27Just this once.
11:28Oh, of course you could, Joe.
11:30And you won't regret it.
11:32You'll be spiritually uplifted.
11:34G'day, how's it going?
11:40Oh, very quiet.
11:42Do you know what I've been thinking?
11:43Perhaps we should consider redecorating.
11:45Yeah, great idea.
11:47We could put in one of those coloured spinning lights and get Nick to spray paint the walls, give it a real disco atmosphere.
11:52I wasn't thinking of anything quite so drastic.
11:55But whatever we do decide, these will be the first to go.
11:59Oh, you can't.
12:00They're cute.
12:01They are not.
12:02They're hideous.
12:02Have a look at them.
12:03Don't listen to him, guys.
12:04He's just in a bad mood.
12:06Well, if you are going to stay, you may as well make yourself useful and keep an eye on the shop.
12:09I'm going to check on the food supplies.
12:11Not exactly being rushed off our feet, are we?
12:16Oh, you're here.
12:18We were just strolling by and I noticed you were open.
12:21There's no function today, is there?
12:22Oh, no, no.
12:23It's just something Mr Bishop wanted to try.
12:24Ah, well, in that case, we'll stop and have a nice cup of tea.
12:27Mum, I might just slip over the water hole and have a couple of quickies.
12:30You're not going straight to that place after church.
12:33We'll have a nice cup of tea.
12:34Sit.
12:35I thought I heard customers.
12:37Oh, that's a real pretty apron, Harold.
12:40I said you.
12:41If that is a slur on my masculinity, I'll...
12:43Of course not, Mr Bishop.
12:45Joe, apologise.
12:47Well, if the apron fits.
12:48That does it.
12:49I will not be insulted in my own shop now.
12:52Mrs Mengel is quite welcome to stay, but you will leave the premises now.
12:55Who says?
12:56As part owner and manager of the shop, I am telling you, you are no longer welcome.
13:00Now, come on, leave.
13:00Come on.
13:00Right, are you going to make me?
13:02If I have to.
13:03Right, go ahead.
13:05Oh, well, by God.
13:06Well.
13:06Joe.
13:07Well.
13:07I'm not calling you again.
13:08You're waiting, mate.
13:09You're both behaving to have children.
13:11And I will not tolerate unchristian bickering on a Sunday.
13:14Now, come along.
13:15Joe, we are going now.
13:18All right, ma'am.
13:19Go on.
13:23Well, let that be a lesson to him.
13:25I will not be trifled with.
13:27You're just lucky Mrs M was there.
13:29Do you mean to say you don't think I could handle that, that, that, that, that, that roughneck?
13:32Are you kidding?
13:34If she'd turned him loose, we'd be taking you home in little bags for the kitten's face at Mr Bishop.
13:38That's twice today you've had your life saved.
13:41Maybe you should quit while you're ahead.
13:47Oh, we may as well close up.
13:49Yeah, it's gone pretty quiet.
13:51I'll have a word with Des, see if it's worthwhile doing on a regular basis.
13:55Hi, how'd it go?
13:57Okay.
13:58How's the painting coming along?
13:59Slowly.
14:00I'm glad you mentioned that.
14:02Ha, we sold one of your paintings yesterday.
14:04You're joking.
14:05So here is your fee, less our little commission.
14:07Unreal.
14:08Maybe I can make a living at this.
14:10Ah, well, I don't think I go putting down a deposit on a hundred-root mansion just yet.
14:14Well, I'll put this in the automatic tower.
14:17Okay.
14:20Oh, I'm sorry, we were just about to close up.
14:22We only wanted a can of drink.
14:23It's all right, Mr Bishop, they're friends of mine from school.
14:25I'll put some.
14:25Oh, all right.
14:27What sorts do you want, Vanessa?
14:29We just said that so he'd let us in.
14:31We need change for the phone.
14:32Oh, okay.
14:33Didn't think you'd guys open on Sunday.
14:35We don't normally.
14:37Want one?
14:38She doesn't smoke.
14:39She's got a mind of her own, hasn't she?
14:41Well, yeah, but Nick's right, I don't.
14:44Straight little country girl, eh?
14:46If you want to get by here in the city, you'd better grow up, I reckon.
14:49Why?
14:50So she can act really mature like you?
14:53I wasn't talking to you, Nick.
14:54I can speak for myself, you know.
14:56Oh, okay.
14:57Go for it.
14:58I'll see you around.
15:00Are you serious?
15:01You've never smoked a cigarette?
15:04No.
15:05Well, come on.
15:06Try one.
15:07You don't want to be a dag, do you?
15:09Well, that's the movement detective, now the windows.
15:21I will be pleased when this alarm system's working.
15:25It'll be nice to feel totally safe in one's own home.
15:28Not that this isn't a safe, may behold, otherwise I wouldn't be living here.
15:33But it doesn't hurt to be careful.
15:35Well, maybe you don't need it.
15:37There wouldn't be too many burglars game enough to take you on.
15:40Don't be foolish, Joe.
15:42Why don't you take a break and I'll make us some afternoon tea?
15:45No, I'd better keep working at it, Mum.
15:46I'll never get finished.
15:47A quick cuppa would be nice, though.
15:49It's good that you changed your mind about going to church.
15:55The shepherd rejoiceth when the lamb returns to the fold.
15:59Mum, that was just a once-off.
16:01Just to keep Madge and Henry from showing you up.
16:03I'm not going to make a habit of it.
16:05Once a week isn't going to hurt you, dear.
16:08Churches are for weddings and funerals,
16:09and I don't plan on having either for quite some time.
16:11Thank you very much.
16:12Well, we'll see.
16:17I feel silly.
16:19No, you look cool.
16:21Sophisticated.
16:21Oh, why would anyone in their right mind want to do this?
16:29It's very foul.
16:30Give it a chance.
16:32You need more than one puff.
16:33It's living out in the bush with all that fresh air.
16:36Once don't get toughened up like in the city.
16:40No, thank you.
16:41I can live without it.
16:42If you want to be a Drew body life, it's up to you.
16:45Come on, this is boring.
16:47Let's go call the guys.
16:48See you around, Shezza.
16:50Yeah.
16:50See you, Droob.
16:53You boys, get away from me.
16:55Go on, go on.
16:55Stop, mate.
16:56Go on.
16:56Hold it.
17:02Blasted machine isn't working.
17:05Is that cigarette smoke?
17:07Oh, um, yeah.
17:08Yeah, Vanessa lit one,
17:10and I told her you didn't like people smoking in here,
17:11so they left.
17:12Oh, good.
17:13All right, well, we may as well lock up.
17:15I see Paul's still in his office,
17:16so I'll ask him if we can put this money in his safe overnight.
17:19Sure.
17:20Filthy habit.
17:21We'll open up tomorrow,
17:22and the place will stick of stale smoke.
17:30Here, see?
17:32Works perfect.
17:33Doesn't it have to be so loud?
17:35Well, you wanted to frighten up the burglars, don't you?
17:38Just open it up!
17:39Oh, now, do you remember how I told you to set it up?
17:44It does seem to have a terrible lot of lights and switches.
17:48Oh, easy, once you get the hang of it.
17:50Oh, well, I suppose it's a small enough effort for peace of mind.
17:55Although, I'm happy enough just to be home again.
18:00Yeah, well, at least you don't have to worry about some moron getting into your bed.
18:03Oh, now, I won't have you talking about Mr Bishop like that.
18:06It was just a silly mistake.
18:09But it is lovely to be back in the peace and quiet of one's own home.
18:13Oh, what's it doing?
18:17Stop it, Joe!
18:19Don't panic!
18:19Must be a short!
18:21I'll turn it off!
18:22Oh, dear!
18:24Joe, Joe!
18:25Joe, stop the wretched people!
18:27Or every police in the neighbourhood will come to investigate!
18:31Yeah, okay, okay!
18:33Look out!
18:35Ow!
18:36There!
18:37Oh, gracious!
18:37I just hope it's not going to keep on doing that!
18:40Yeah, well, uh, must be a bug in the system or something.
18:43I'll sort it out.
18:44Don't worry, Mum, I know what I'm doing.
18:54Looks like they've closed up and gone home.
18:57Maybe not.
18:58There's a light on in there.
18:59Hang on.
19:00Hold Jamie for a sec.
19:02Come on, mate.
19:03That's not a light!
19:11Something's burning!
19:12Hold on to Jamie.
19:13Des, wait!
19:14If it's on fire, it could be dangerous.
19:16There's a fire extinguisher in there.
19:18I'll try and control it.
19:19Call the fire brigade.
19:19Yes, at the Lasseter's Hotel complex.
19:41Please hurry!

20:19For one,
20:19Next door is only a footstep away.
20:30Neighbors, everybody needs good neighbors.
20:36With a little understanding, you can find the perfect plan.
20:44Neighbors should be there for one another.
20:53That's when good neighbors become good friends.
