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.
00:34Des? Des?
00:50No. No. It would help if you didn't move your eyes.
00:56It's not my fault. There's a fly here somewhere.
01:00I'll get the spray.
01:02Heavens? No. Not with my sinuses.
01:06It's like the kitchen at the hotel. I told Paul we needed new screens.
01:11I'm really not concerned about the hotel kitchen or the screens. Now please sit still.
01:17I don't know why I should be so concerned anyway. The dedication I showed, the hours of overtime, the man's a fool.
01:26Very probably.
01:28Apart from the humiliation he caused, there's Jane to consider.
01:32And it really is so difficult to make ends meet. And the way things are heading financially, well, the writing could be on the wall.
01:39And your talents, you'll find another job.
01:41I doubt it, Mrs. Daniels. No. I'm finished. Paul's seen to that.
01:48Oh, well, he can be very stubborn when needs be.
01:52It's not as though the Robinsons haven't caused me enough heartache. First there was Scott's wretched article.
01:58All right, Nell. What do you want me to do?
02:01Talk to Paul. Make him see reason. I'm invaluable to that hotel. They need me.
02:08If I talk to him, will you sit still?
02:10I shan't move a muscle.
02:13Ah, well, I can't promise anything. You realise that?
02:16We'll need that audio-visual gear set up before they arrive.
02:28That's taken care of.
02:29And those extra chairs brought in for the conference room?
02:32Yep, that too.
02:34Great. Things are taking shape, then.
02:36Gail, thanks for all the help you've done this weekend.
02:39All part of the service.
02:41A happy bunch of travel agents makes for a happy convention.
02:44Makes for a lot of extra business directed our way. I like it.
02:46Ah, yes. I can almost hear those cash registers ringing in your ears.
02:49Now, now, now. Let's keep this cynicism down to a healthy level.
02:52I tell you what, though. Good morning's work deserves a special treat for lunch. Got time?
02:56Well, I'm working on a Sunday, aren't I? Let's just say my diary's not entirely full.
03:00Good. Because Dean assures me that this lunch is fit for kings.
03:03But first, I think we should just go through the supply list.
03:06No need. Mrs Mangle did a very thorough job before she left.
03:09That's what I paid her for.
03:11It's what you could still be paying her for if I could be that blunt.
03:14You? Blunt? We are talking about the same girl or something.
03:18Sorry, Paul. I know it's none of my business.
03:21It's none of your business.
03:22And I know you're not interested in my opinion.
03:24I'm not interested in your opinion.
03:26But I really do think you should reconsider. She obviously did a damn good job at Lassiter's.
03:30You know, when you're finished here, you've got a great job going for you with a diplomatic call.
03:34Seriously, Paul, I know the woman's a painful busybody and I know she did the wrong thing.
03:38She was extremely disloyal, Gail.
03:40Look, selling that story to Disclosure magazine could have ruined me professionally and privately.
03:45Not to mention the damage it could have done to this company.
03:48You're saying I should button my lip and get back to work?
03:51Gail, button your lip and get back to work.
03:54Now, how did I know you were going to say that?
03:56Now, how did I know you were going to say that?
04:00Okay, it's 20 minutes. Time to do.
04:28Oh, son, boys. Give me some more of them golden rays.
04:42I think I've died and gone to heaven.
04:44I just think it all ends tomorrow. I'm going to have to get back into the swing of studying again.
04:50Yeah, it's all in the garden.
04:52Do you guys mind? Us girls came here for a bit of peaceful relaxation.
04:56It's hot to relax.
04:58Me too. I'll race you to the water.
05:02Tell you what, mate. There's worse ways to spend a Sunday.
05:08Yep.
05:10Better keep an eye on our clothes if we go for a swim.
05:12I wonder what happened last week.
05:14That's a reminder.
05:16Charlene and Kelly had a really good laugh, didn't we?
05:18I suppose it's pretty funny at the time.
05:20We weren't laughing at the time.
05:22I recall we were both pretty cheesed off.
05:26Stranded, in the water, with nothing to wear.
05:30Then we run around in that blanket looking for a telephone.
05:32Right, you still see us?
05:34No way.
05:36Hey, you know how Gran's always going on about two wrongs don't make a right?
05:42Yeah.
05:44I feel it'd be really, really, really petty to do something to Charlene just to get even, don't you?
05:50Yeah. Yeah, real petty pretty.
05:54Let's do it.
05:56Let's do it.
05:58Jim!
06:00You alright?
06:02What the hell happened?
06:04It ran me off the road.
06:06My leg...
06:08I think it's broken.
06:10Get some help, Des.
06:12No, I won't, mate. I can't leave you like this.
06:14Just look at it.
06:15It's gonna need a splint, mate.
06:17No time for that.
06:19Get an ambulance.
06:21The telephone box, mate.
06:23Yeah.
06:24Okay.
06:25I'll be as quick as my...
06:26You got food?
06:27Yeah.
06:28Water?
06:29Okay, mate.
06:30Just hang on, okay?
06:31Hurry, Des.
06:32You alright?
06:33That woman is unbelievable.
06:38Peace and quiet at last.
06:43We're talking about Mrs. Mangle, I take it?
06:45Oh, yes.
06:46As a subject for an artist, she's a terrific advertisement for photography.
06:51Honestly, she fidgets, she complains, and that voice drones on and on and on like a bandsaw.
06:58Steady on, Helen.
06:59Oh, I'm sorry.
07:00I just couldn't take it any longer.
07:01You just walked out?
07:02I politely explained that I had another appointment.
07:05Smart thinking.
07:06You like it?
07:07It's one of my new maternity outfits.
07:08Oh, yes.
07:09Very smart.
07:10It's certainly cheaper than buying them.
07:11Anyway, half the dresses you see look like tents.
07:13Yes, it was difficult to find anything flattering, I remember.
07:16Still, you've got a long way to go yet.
07:18Do you think we're jumping the gun?
07:20Not if it makes you happy.
07:22Though they do say that maternity is an eternity.
07:25I'm glad you came over, Helen.
07:28Feeling a bit flat today, especially with Des out doing his Tarzan impression.
07:31Yes.
07:32He and Jim were keyed up this morning, weren't they?
07:35I wonder who will win.
07:37Does it matter?
07:38One of us is going to be nursing a bruised ego.
07:40I'm making Des a Pavlova just in case.
07:43I'm making Jim some macaroni cheese.
07:46Well, whatever the outcome, at least we'll eat well.
07:53Here they come.
07:57Hey, what's all this?
07:59Um, I thought that would have been pretty obvious, actually.
08:04Yeah, it's a hole.
08:05What's it for?
08:06Well, that's our business, right, Mike?
08:08Yeah, it's sort of a surprise.
08:10This is going to be unreal.
08:12What's unreal about digging a hole in the sand?
08:14Nothing.
08:15Look, why don't you two go to the shop?
08:17I've got some money in my boardies.
08:19Yeah, that's a great idea.
08:21I'll take your time, guys.
08:23Uh-uh.
08:24Not until you guys tell me and Jane what's going on.
08:27Yeah.
08:28Nah, you'd be too chicken.
08:30Chicken?
08:31Too chicken to do what?
08:32Nah, nah, forget it, Charlotte.
08:34Well, what do you do?
08:35Get in the hole?
08:36Yes, but...
08:37And then what happens?
08:39Well, look, I told you, it's just a waste of time.
08:42Anything you guys can do, I can do too.
08:44You tell them, Charlene.
08:46All right, big mouth, I'll be.
08:53Okay, now what?
08:58And perhaps a little drop of Chardonnay?
09:02Paul, there is so much, I don't know where to start.
09:05Yeah, Dean sort of got carried away, didn't he?
09:07I asked him for an intimate lunch for two.
09:09Intimate?
09:10Intimate as in, uh, small.
09:14Private.
09:15Or discreet.
09:16Oh, that kind of intimate.
09:19Yeah.
09:20Um, salad?
09:21Thanks.
09:28You're not used to this, are you?
09:29Hmm?
09:30Being with a girl without planning your next three moves ahead.
09:33Gail, we're friends, that's the way we want it, isn't it?
09:36It must be a, uh, novel experience for you.
09:39Terrific.
09:40I organised this fabulous lunch, and that's the thanks I get.
09:43Oh, you know I'm only teasing.
09:45Jeremy had virtually no sense of humour.
09:47I'm indulging myself.
09:48Well, indulge yourself in that instead.
09:51Thanks.
10:03This is nice.
10:04Yeah, it's Dean's special dressing.
10:05You won't tell me what's in it.
10:06No, I mean, being with you.
10:08Company.
10:09Being friends.
10:10Yeah, I guess it is.
10:12You ever get lonely?
10:14Doesn't everyone?
10:15That's not what I asked.
10:18Sometimes.
10:19Hmm.
10:20Me too.
10:21Then perhaps this arrangement has a future after all.
10:24Well, two equally bitter and twisted human beings decide to throw all caution to the wind
10:29and enter headlong into a mad, passionate friendship.
10:37To a passionate friendship.
10:39Hear, hear.
10:59Oh, come on, Liz.
11:05Come on.
11:15No rules!
11:23Now I think I know how Marie Antoinette must have felt.
11:27Can you move?
11:28Are you kidding?
11:29This sand weighs a ton.
11:31I think my left leg's gone.
11:33Excellent.
11:34Excellent.
11:35Well, come on, guys.
11:36You said this was supposed to be funny.
11:37I think it's funny.
11:38Yeah, and I think it's funny too.
11:40Well, so what happens now?
11:42Burying her in the sand's a bit childish.
11:44Oh, I don't know.
11:45I mean, we can do a lot more childish things than that.
11:47What do you reckon, mate?
11:48Yeah, yeah, I think so.
11:52You see, once upon a time, Scott and I decide to go to the beach.
11:57Mmm.
11:58And Charlene and Kelly decided to play this practical little joke on us.
12:02Scott, get me out of here.
12:03Well, they nicked off with our clothes while we went skinny dipping, didn't they, mate?
12:07Didn't come back for hours.
12:09Jane, come on, guys.
12:10You've had your fun.
12:11We can't just leave her in there.
12:13Oh, we intend to do a lot more.
12:14You ready, Scott?
12:16Oh, yeah.
12:21What's that for?
12:22It's a honey sandwich.
12:24Oh, and I remember reading somewhere they said that honey's supposed to be really good for the complexion.
12:28Oh, yeah!
12:29Cut it out, Scott.
12:30Would you let me go?
12:31No, no, not yet.
12:32Jane, do something!
12:33Ready?
12:34Oh, just a little bit more around the ears.
12:35Scott Robinson, you better have life insurance.
12:36Don't get meat after this!
12:37Dead meat?
12:39That reminds me we haven't fed Bouncer yet, have we?
12:54I'd better do that now!
12:56Just a little bit more around the ears.
12:59Scott Robinson, you better have life insurance.
13:01Don't get meat after this!
13:02Dead meat.
13:03That reminds me we haven't fed Bouncer yet, have we?
13:04How about her to do that now?
13:05Oh, no.
13:20Rotten mongrel!
13:35Are you okay? Do I look okay?
13:41You look like you want to kill someone very slowly and very painfully.
13:44Good, because that's just what I would like to do.
13:47Where's Banser?
13:48I don't know, probably lying under a tree somewhere, sleeping off lunch, I guess.
13:52Yeah, I reckon all that licking must have taken a lot out of him.
13:56No one thinks you're funny, Scott. Just get in the car and drive.
13:58Oh, come on. You got me back.
14:00Well, I'd rather be dunked than covered in sand and honey.
14:03What's the matter? Can't you take a joke?
14:05I am tired and filthy and I want to go home now!
14:09See yourself.
14:15She's pretty fired up, mate.
14:19Don't let them get to you. It's just what they want.
14:22Why don't you come back to my place for lunch? You'll feel a lot better.
14:25I'll feel better, all right. Just you wait.
14:30Jim, Jim's back.
14:33Where are they coming, man?
14:37Sorry, man.
14:38Those rotten mongrels that tore their phone apart.
14:42Must have gone straight back.
14:46The car?
14:48I got to it, too.
14:49Let the air out of the tyres, ripped out the wiring, took the distributor cap.
14:52Thought I'd better come straight back here. There's nothing I could do.
14:57Take it easy, mate.
14:58You're going to have to go to this main road here, man. About ten kilometres.
15:08Ten? And the rest? It's all through bush.
15:11Well, it's 30 kilometres by road, Des.
15:15Please.
15:16Please hold it.
15:18All right.
15:19Just take it easy.
15:19I'll be as quick as I can.
15:25It's a promise, mate.
15:26Thanks. Thanks, Des.
15:28Okay?
15:28Thanks.
15:28You know, you might look back on this one day and decide it was funny.
15:42Well, I don't mean funny, exactly. I mean, you might think that...
15:44I thought they were so clever.
15:45Oh, come on, Charlene.
15:48You played a joke on them and they got your back.
15:51Easy for you to say.
15:53And you weren't the one stuck in the sand.
15:55I'll have to wash this again when I get home.
15:58They'll get theirs.
16:02Charlene?
16:04Oh, Jane, you might have told me you were expecting a guest for lunch.
16:07Oh, and you know how I feel about you carting food into the living room?
16:12It's only a sandwich, then.
16:13Okay, we should go, Jane.
16:15Thanks for lunch and the shower.
16:17See you.
16:18Bye-bye.
16:23Lunch and shower?
16:25What is this, a lady's refuge?
16:27What's wrong with a Mitchell's own shower?
16:30Charlene had a shower here when we came home from the beach.
16:32It's no big deal, Nan.
16:33It would be if you had to pay for the hot water.
16:36We had an electricity bill just last week.
16:39And I suppose you've used the last of the bread.
16:41Well, it's just as well. I bought some more.
16:42I do pay board, Nan.
16:44A drop in the bucket.
16:46Our financial situation is critical, Jane.
16:49Do you know how much these few things cost?
16:52Over $20.
16:53The corner shop's got so expensive.
16:57I just can't keep up with our overheads.
16:59Well, then I'll write to Mum.
17:00You do nothing of the sort.
17:02I'm not a charity case.
17:04Well, neither am I.
17:05You've looked after me all this time.
17:06That wasn't charity, was it?
17:07No.
17:08Well, then it's only fair that Mum helps now.
17:10It's not for discussion, Jane.
17:11You will not involve your mother, and that is final.
17:13Come on.
17:23Hi.
17:23Finished washing the car?
17:24Yep.
17:25So tell me, how was the beach?
17:27Oh, it was the best, wasn't it?
17:28The best.
17:29I know that sneaky look on your face, Scott.
17:32What happened?
17:32Oh, well, Daph, it's a long story.
17:34Oh, come on, Scott.
17:34Don't be modest.
17:35Tell Daph what you did.
17:37We played a practical joke on Charlene.
17:39At the beach?
17:40Well, it was more like in the beach, wasn't it?
17:42You see, we buried her up to here in sand,
17:44and Scott put honey all over her face.
17:47And then we let Bouncer lick it off.
17:50Oh, yuck, that's awful.
17:52Charlene must have been furious.
17:53She was.
17:53She didn't say anything for about ten minutes afterwards.
17:55Now, you're lucky she didn't knock your block off.
17:57Oh, she tried, let me tell you.
17:58That's how come I got so soaked.
18:00We, um, we had a bit of a tussle.
18:02You know what?
18:02She almost drowned me.
18:03I couldn't believe it.
18:04I was lucky it wasn't Des she was trying to drown.
18:07I just found out he can't swim.
18:09You're joking.
18:10Mm-mm.
18:11Poor Des.
18:13So embarrassed he's kept it a secret all his time.
18:15So I think it's about time someone gave him a few lessons.
18:19Yeah, it's a bit of a tough assignment, isn't it?
18:21Mm.
18:21That's why I thought it might be good coming from a friend.
18:24How about it, Mike?
18:25Sure, I don't mind.
18:28Now all we have to do is be tactful.
18:29You know how sensitive Des is?
18:30Mm.
18:31He's going to be pretty tired tonight, that's for sure.
18:38Pam.
19:15Everybody needs good neighbors
19:34Just a friendly way each morning
19:38Helps to make a better day
19:45Neighbors need to get to know each other
19:52Next door is only a footstep away
20:02Neighbors, everybody needs good neighbors
20:09With a little understanding
20:13You can find the perfect plan
20:18Neighbors should be there for one another
20:25That's when good neighbors become good friends
