Transcript

00:00Previously, on Shortland Street.

00:02They're here for the wedding.

00:03The wedding of the year.

00:04No matter what I do, no matter what I say, somebody that I love will get hurt.

00:08You should have someone with you.

00:09Marty, I just want Marty.

00:11I'm here for you, okay? Whatever you need.

00:25Hi.

00:28What's the time?

00:30I don't know if I just woke up.

00:31Uh, you can't be here.

00:34Is that bad?

00:36No, that's not the point.

00:37I don't want the kids to see you because it is too confusing for them.

00:42Well, they don't need to know I stayed over.

00:44It could have just come round.

00:45No, put your shoes on.

00:47Hang on.

00:48Thank you for coming over.

00:52Wait.

00:54Let's not make this hard, eh?

00:55Well, aren't you confused by this?

00:57Well, you can talk about it later, I promise.

01:00Okay.

01:03I'll see you later.

01:04What are you doing?

01:18It's not an ambo anymore.

01:19What?

01:20Uh, this is Nova.

01:21I found her outside.

01:21She was super confused looking for you.

01:23Um, she has flank pain and I think she's febrile.

01:26She has a UTI.

01:27Hi.

01:28There are two sets of cultures, take bloods, hang a litre of saline and we will get a urine.

01:35Mother, can you open your eyes for me?

01:37Sipses?

01:38Poppy, hands.

01:39Get out of here.

01:41Come on.

01:43Well, I did the best I could with the time frame I had.

01:47And I'm still not seeing donors.

01:49Well, maybe if the CEO bothered to speak to them, they might be more willing.

01:52We're all under the pump right now.

01:54Tune in on each other won't help.

01:59God, envy you I do not.

02:01It's all Esther's fault.

02:02You know, wishy-washy relationships always become my problem and I'm so sick of it.

02:06Yeah, it's not fair.

02:07Thank you, Phil.

02:09Just because one person can't control their impulses, we're all forced to deal with the consequences.

02:12If they're just going to change their mind in the first place, what was even the point?

02:16Sex ruins everything.

02:18Okay, Sister Philippa, when did we run off and join the convent?

02:21Name one relationship between us that hasn't crashed, burned and cost thousands in therapy.

02:25Uh, hello.

02:26Monique has fought her way through a horde of heartbreak and cultural incompatibility to finally find her happily ever after.

02:32Okay, she is an example to all of us.

02:34The house gate calls, all right?

02:35Can you fix that?

02:36Of course.

02:37Sorry, I forgot about you and ours.

02:38Ha ha.

02:40How's it going?

02:41Is brother staying causing any drama?

02:43No, no, no, no, no.

02:44We're staying on you, okay?

02:46Tell Sage about Maeve.

02:47He's not going to judge or yap if you apply enough pressure.

02:50Nothing to tell.

02:52It's fine.

02:53I should be focusing on my consultancy exam anyway, not some stupid crush on Ferndale's latest tragic divorcee.

02:59Totally.

03:02Judy calls.

03:04Look, Phil, you don't need that mess.

03:05And Maeve is about as messy as it gets.

03:08Yeah, agreed.

03:09Yeah.

03:10And you don't need to be all down with love 2025 because of that.

03:14Your person's out there.

03:15Your picker's just not picking properly.

03:17My picker is defective.

03:18And not everyone needs to be coupled up like you and us.

03:20Let's give him another two milligrams of on Densintron and I'll come check on him within the hour.

03:28You don't need to be looking at the morning.

03:31If I know you're coming, I'll take a look.

03:34Okay, so I was thinking.

03:35Just don't.

03:36Look, I understand your situation is hard.

03:38Look, I'll see it through like I said.

03:39I suggest you tell Monique the truth about everything.

03:43You have every right to be scared, okay?

03:44But if you truly want to marry Monique, and I can't change your mind on that, then you need to be united.

03:50A team.

03:51She'll hate me.

03:52For a while.

03:53Marriage has its ups and downs.

03:55You'll get that.

03:56Such bull neka vakta geya, Meri bhai.

03:59It's worse than having you compete with me all the time.

04:03I won't compete with you.

04:04Nazar.

04:05Okay, yeah, fine.

04:05I'll tell Monique.

04:06Naz, I was just in with Callum.

04:08You're not on the wards.

04:08He's the same.

04:09No improvement.

04:10Damn it.

04:11We need to get in there right now.

04:12Yeah, right.

04:18What's wrong?

04:19I just took it on the party.

04:21Hey, if you need anything.

04:22Thanks, Billy.

04:24I know you were close to Steph at the end of it, and I didn't even know her that well.

04:27I'm fine, Billy.

04:29Okay.

04:30You're all heading to the gas road, Jason lost to me.

04:32That was meant to happen.

04:32Never.

04:33I read you in my list.

04:35Won't have too much of a knock-on.

04:36Yeah, look, I know it's been a week for you, but you can't just up and leave whenever it suits.

04:40Oh, well, the delay actually turned out better for the patient.

04:42Her son was in Singapore, so...

04:44It was a one-off.

04:45Won't happen again.

04:46Good.

04:49Did I say something wrong?

04:51Don't worry about it.

04:52Thanks, Billy.

04:54Drew is really going to have to step up when I cut back.

04:57Yeah, about that.

04:59Well, I'm not trying to be insensitive, but he is the obvious replacement, is it, Judy?

05:04Yes, sir.

05:05What?

05:06We still need to discuss your treatment.

05:08Don't we have to do that right here?

05:11As long as it's today.

05:13It will be.

05:13Right.

05:14You should bring someone.

05:16Claire.

05:17Or Marty.

05:19Separation aside, just tell family.

05:22No, Chris.

05:23Just forget about whatever or whoever tore you apart.

05:28You two love each other, and you will regret not having him by your side through this.

05:33I can't.

05:33Just tell him you love him.

05:36Let him in.

05:37And then he'll watch me die.

05:39And don't say I'm not dying, because we both know what happens when you make promises to patients.

05:43We don't know what will happen.

05:45Don't.

05:46If this is the end, why would you choose to be alone through it?

05:56That's not fair on you all, Marty.

05:59Yes, we'll stay safe.

06:02Wise woman.

06:08It's Steph.

06:09If it was Steph, the antibiotics would be working.

06:11Look, I appreciate your help, Marty.

06:13Do you?

06:14But I've got it from here.

06:15Look, there must be another explanation.

06:17What is going on with you?

06:19Nothing.

06:20Well, he's got a lot on his mind.

06:22With the wedding.

06:23Right, of course.

06:24Look, I'm not going to let Callum or his parents down.

06:26Clearly, I've missed something.

06:28No, but didn't you say that the parents weren't talking?

06:30Sorry, don't insert yourself where you don't belong.

06:32And this isn't your patient.

06:33Take you at 120.

06:38Let's hang another liter of stat saline.

06:40Where have you been?

06:41In recess.

06:42No reseptic.

06:43Probably pylonifritus from a UTI.

06:45Yikes.

06:46How did you let it get that bad?

06:47Do we need another surgical consult?

06:49No.

06:49Gee, that feels fine.

06:50Just step back and let her do her thing.

06:52Thanks.

06:53I'll get that IV fluid.

06:54Have you studied antibiotics?

06:56Empiric CF triaxone.

06:57Okay.

06:58We'll do a renal ultrasound,

06:59see if there's any damage that we need to surgically resolve.

07:01I need an HCA over here.

07:04Transport a radiology.

07:07Yes.

07:09Oi.

07:10Little birdie told me that's one of yours.

07:12I've got it.

07:13When you sent home yesterday.

07:15Yes.

07:16Now she's critical.

07:18You told me to nip it in the bud.

07:19The time wasters, not genuinely sick people.

07:28Look, I don't want your apology.

07:30Just chase up the lab.

07:31It's not like you to lose your call.

07:35Sorry.

07:36It's just a confusing case.

07:38Sick kid.

07:39Terrified parents.

07:40I need answers.

07:40Maybe I could help.

07:42No, you've got enough on your plate.

07:43Yeah, but you don't see me going off with the people I'm closest to.

07:46Ignore Zahir.

07:47That's just brother stuff.

07:49What?

07:50Callum's perked up a bit.

07:52I haven't changed anything yet.

07:53That sounds important.

07:54We can talk later.

07:55Yeah, sorry.

07:56You?

07:59Me?

08:00Hey, do you know why Nuzza's being weird about you?

08:04Uh, no.

08:05What did he say?

08:05It's me, isn't it?

08:07Surprising him with your visit?

08:09No.

08:09Is it me full stop?

08:10This is too hard for you?

08:11No, Muni, please.

08:12Don't get upset.

08:13No, I'm really trying not to.

08:14I...

08:15Just talk to Nuzza.

08:16Oh, God.

08:17You know, you can get through it together.

08:18Get through what?

08:19The...

08:19You know.

08:21No, no, I really don't know.

08:24Okay.

08:25Before you reached out to me, I didn't know you two were engaged.

08:29Wait, what?

08:30But...

08:30I pretended.

08:32Yeah.

08:32I didn't want to hurt you, and I needed to talk to my brother.

08:36So your parents didn't know either?

08:38No.

08:38Well, do they know now?

08:41I'm sorry.

08:41No, no, there is no excuses.

09:11I shouldn't have sent in hove.

09:13No, you shouldn't have.

09:14Maybe it wasn't right that one of my girls took a few dramatic liberties just to be seen

09:17by you.

09:19But, Gia, if we can't come to you, then maybe you need to come to us.

09:25Nova should start feeling better in the next few hours, but I'll pop back in before then,

09:29and a nurse will come and check on her too.

09:30Thanks.

09:35You know, I get why you were like that with me, Nuzza.

09:37No, you don't.

09:38Okay, do you want to go back in and sort things out with Luciani?

09:43I just needed to make sure she was going to pull through, okay?

09:46But we're done, babe, so I need to get back.

09:48What?

09:48Where did she go?

09:49I don't know.

09:51When did this happen?

09:52Is she okay?

09:53You don't need to worry yourself about it.

09:55You don't like it when they fight, do you?

10:07No.

10:09And when you're sick, they pay you attention?

10:12And they're nice to each other too, mostly.

10:16So I'm guessing you weren't taking your pills at home.

10:18But how come you've been getting sicker while you've been here with me?

10:20Callum, I'm just going to take a look, okay?

10:25No, don't.

10:26I won't be mad.

10:32Did you do this?

10:35I, I just take the dressing off.

10:38Get it a bit dirty.

10:41To make your leg worse.

10:43I don't want to get in trouble.

10:45Callum, your parents love you.

10:47If you'd just talked to them, they would have listened.

10:50I don't know.

10:52There can't be any worse than lying here, feeling like absolute rubbish and scaring them.

10:59I'll be back in a moment.

11:04Mon.

11:05Have you told your parents we're engaged?

11:09Have you been lying to me?

11:12Mon, just, just give me five.

11:13Mon, please.

11:14Please.

11:20Thanks for granting me a visitation.

11:29So, here I am.

11:32Am I not meant to approach you in public now?

11:47Of course you can.

11:49I am just, you know, I've got a lot on my mind.

11:54Was Steph?

11:54No.

11:56Well, yes, I, you know, it's not just Steph.

12:00Us.

12:03Yeah, that's part of it.

12:06Yes, it's okay.

12:09No, it's not.

12:10Hey, please just talk to me.

12:13I'm here for you, okay?

12:14I'm right here.

12:15Hey, I want this.

12:21You both do.

12:23Maddy.

12:24Whatever it is, it doesn't matter.

12:26Okay, nothing means anything without you.

12:31This isn't right.

12:35What?

12:36Okay, you're wrong.

12:38You don't need me.

12:40And you are going to be fine.

12:44If we're better than fine, I think you are just struggling to let go.

12:48You know, we both are.

12:50And that's bullshit.

12:52I don't want to make this harder than it has to be.

12:54What is this?

12:56What are you doing right now?

12:58What do you mean?

12:59You're playing mind games again.

13:01First you want me, then you don't, then you do.

13:02Just stop.

13:03No, last night meant something.

13:06I didn't ask you to come over.

13:08You needed me.

13:09Last night was a mistake.

13:12Okay?

13:12And it wasn't good for either of us.

13:16So what?

13:17That's it?

13:18Yeah.

13:19That is it.

13:20That is it.

13:39You made her off without me, Nick.

13:41It's not true.

13:44Ask Kathy.

13:45Yeah, she's good.

13:48We're both good.

13:50Kathy.

13:51No, Nick.

13:52Don't.

13:52Okay?

13:53You know that I didn't mean it like that.

13:55Do you really think that we'd still be together if I wasn't in here?

13:59What?

13:59Yes.

14:01Of course I'd.

14:02Why would you even ask me that?

14:03Because I don't think we would be.

14:07And I think if you were honest with yourself, you'd see that things haven't been right with

14:10us for a long time.

14:12Okay.

14:12I know what you're trying to do.

14:14I know that it hurts to hear.

14:17Okay?

14:17I've had a lot of time to think about it, so it's easier for me.

14:22You are trying to push me away, Nick, and it is not going to work.

14:25Do you not think this is hard to say?

14:27You want to set me free or whatever, right?

14:31Or do I not get a say?

14:34Maeve, why can't you see this for what it is?

14:37We've been broken for a long time.

14:41Me being in jail.

14:43There's something I can look past, Nick.

14:45It is something we can work through together.

14:47I don't want to.

14:49You know, I'm sorry.

14:53If we can't let go now, we're kidding ourselves, okay?

14:59Do you know that I will always love you?

15:03Yeah.

15:03Yeah, it really feels like it.

15:05Maeve.

15:05No, no, no.

15:06Go ahead.

15:06Call all the shots.

15:08Again.

15:08You are loyal and you are good.

15:10No, Nick, enough.

15:11Okay, enough.

15:11You can save it because it is really, really clear where you stand.

15:14Just Maeve.

15:15And I don't want to hear it.

15:16No, Maeve.

15:17I'm done here.

15:25Visually, you know, if you ask me to stay late, I'm going to do what he says.

15:27Yeah, but he can't just spring this on your last minute.

15:30Yeah, he can.

15:31You're usually pretty good at saying no, though.

15:33I'm growing as a person and as a doctor.

15:37Learning from the best.

15:38Ciao, Lovers.

15:44She's acting weird.

15:46What do you think?

15:47Nah, probably just a Hendrix hangover.

15:48Hey.

15:50Hey.

15:51Pipsqueak's got her hand up for the night shift.

15:53You want to bugger off?

15:54See you, mate.

15:55Sure.

15:57Got to get more pushback on that.

15:58Too bad I have work to do.

16:01You're moonlighting.

16:01More like soul-searchy self-work.

16:07Okay.

16:07You go get that woo-woo.

16:08I feel like I've lost sight of who I am.

16:14Why?

16:14Because you can't be a personal physician to the entire transgender community and work 50 hours at ED.

16:21I bring a perspective to this job that no one else has, and I can't just ignore that.

16:25I need to help my community, even if it does just mean a few hours volunteering at a clinic in my downtime.

16:32Well, you go ahead and do it.

16:33We'll make it work.

16:34Really?

16:36Yeah.

16:36Yeah, I might even volunteer myself.

16:39Oh, absolutely not.

16:40You don't exactly screen gender-affirming health care.

16:43Oh, come on.

16:44I fix bodies.

16:45I don't give a rat's ass who lives in them.

16:47Right.

16:49Yeah, look, all I'm saying is I don't care who my patients identify as.

16:53Yeah, I don't have the time or the inclination to explain that one to you.

16:56Oh, for God's sake.

16:59Maybe he'll start with a donation.

17:01Money.

17:02Okay, cool.

17:04Thanks.

17:04Don't be discouraged.

17:09They're coming through.

17:11About where you are on the list.

17:14You're right.

17:15I should have told Marty.

17:17He should have been in there with me.

17:18What am I doing?

17:21We love each other.

17:23I...

17:23I love him.

17:25And I don't want him there with me through all of it.

17:31Same again.

17:32Thanks.

17:32Thank you very much.

17:47Goddamn, that's really gross.

17:49You hate scotch.

17:50I know.

17:51Can you make that too, please?

17:54Actually, make hers a tequila.

17:56Bunko.

17:57Three limes, no soda.

18:00So, um, so, Nazar never told his family that he proposed to me.

18:06He admitted it.

18:07They were never coming to the wedding because they still don't know.

18:09There is one.

18:10Oh, God, I don't even know what there is.

18:12Well, what about the venue?

18:14Is that it?

18:15Yeah.

18:16Got to hand it to Nazar.

18:17He's very convincing.

18:18I can't believe he would do that.

18:20What a dick.

18:21You don't mean that.

18:23Yes, I do.

18:24I'm starting a tab.

18:26We're starting a tab.

18:26Can we please start a tab?

18:29Yeah.

18:30He's an idiot.

18:32And you are spectacular.

18:35It just doesn't have it coming from you, you know?

18:41Well, Esther's an idiot too.

18:44Julian again?

18:46I don't know.

18:47I don't think so.

18:48Not this time.

18:50This time it's all her.

18:51They do not deserve us.

18:56No, they don't.

18:59Right?

19:00Oh, cheers to that.

19:02Cheers to us.

19:03Yeah.

19:05Not cheers to them.

19:06Mm-hmm.

19:08Menech.

19:09Menech!

19:10She isn't here.

19:11Well, she is announcing my calls and my text messages.

19:13Nazar, she's not going to be safe.

19:16I was going to tell her!

19:18No!

19:18You were!

19:19Yes, I was.

19:21You had the whole day.

19:25Are you happy now?

19:27I was with my patient that nearly developed sepsis.

19:29I was finishing up with his parents and father's support.

19:31Of course, your problems are always bigger than everyone else, Azante.

19:34What do you want?

19:34You all say what they want to hear.

19:37I, Monique, mother, father.

19:39You all want to do all of you on your fingers.

19:41No, you're such a...

19:41I don't need to make a baby.

19:43You're a nurse with a nurse.

19:45You have no idea how much damage you've done.

19:47And she needed to hear it from me.

19:49Oh, I agree.

19:50But if you two can't survive this, maybe you shouldn't be getting married.

20:00All right.

20:01You, Philippa Grayson, need a...

20:04Night off.

20:07I'm not going to become a consultant by prioritising self-care.

20:09No, I guess not.

20:11It costs me on emergency medicine presentations.

20:14Uh-uh, please, Sage.

20:17Well, I'm not expecting anyone.

20:26Hey, what are you doing here?

20:29Um, I don't know.

20:31I knew there was something going on.

20:33Sage, can you give us some space, please?

20:36Yeah, sure.

20:36Come on in.

20:38You okay?

20:41Sage.

20:42Yeah, sorry.

20:44Um, I hope you're doing okay, Maeve.

20:54Jess, I just wish you told me, you know.

20:58Like, I would have understood.

20:59Like, maybe, I don't know, not like straight away, but eventually, right?

21:03You are not to blame for any of it.

21:05And neither of you, except for all, like, the stuff with Tatiana.

21:10No, that never would have happened if yours hadn't moved on first.

21:13Hmm.

21:14I was wondering, like, why, why Tatiana?

21:19Why not?

21:20I don't know.

21:21It's all good.

21:22But, like, if you're going to step out of your marriage, you could have anyone, you know?

21:26Unless C.P.O. was, like, the lack of longevity.

21:31You're jealous.

21:32Yeah.

21:34No.

21:35I'm sorry it wasn't you.

21:36Shut up.

21:37I'm, uh, no.

21:39No, no.

21:39You see, I, I was happily engaged, happily in love.

21:44I was.

21:45And if you had made a pass at me, I'd have...

21:47Yeah.

21:48I'm sure you would have done much worse than that.

21:50Oh.

21:53This is number five.

21:56Five.

21:58Failed engagements.

22:01One.

22:04Mm.

22:07You love Nas.

22:10I do.

22:13You love Easter?

22:16Yeah, I do.

22:18But they are selfish bastards.

22:21They are.

22:23At least we always have each other around.

22:25Mm-hmm.

22:26We should, we should, we should close that tab.

22:32Definitely.

22:33Definitely.

22:34Hello, can we please close the tab?

22:38Thank you very much.

22:41Thank you, thank you, thank you.

22:43Hi.

22:44I'm going to go home to my house with Sage and Phil.

22:48Great idea.

22:49Good one.

22:50I'll stay here.

22:51Bye.

22:52Bye.

22:53Bye.

22:55Bye.

22:56Bye.

22:57Bye.

22:58Bye.

22:59Bye.

23:00Bye.

23:01Bye.

23:02Bye.

23:03Bye.

23:04Bye.

23:05Bye.
