00:00Closer each day
00:03Home and no way
00:06I think for the house
00:09The agent dropped them off
00:10We can move in whenever we want
00:12You guys want to help Joe and I christen the place later on?
00:15What are you thinking?
00:16Got an old barbecue I could fire up
00:17He would really like it if we went
00:19How about you stop going behind my back to my dad?
00:23I forgot that mum used to do these
00:24I wish she was here
00:25She is
00:30You think I'm lying about what happened?
00:32I don't think that
00:33Why else would you have the case file?
00:35I'm checking to see if the crash unit missed anything in the investigation
00:39I thought we were finally going to move on
00:41I'm sorry
00:42Hey
00:43Wow, the place looks amazing
00:46Hey
00:46Joe
00:49Where are you going?
00:51Anywhere that's not here
00:52Clearly he doesn't believe my version of events anymore
00:55But he has up until this point, so what's changed?
01:00What did you say to him?
01:01Well, I'm going to need more information
01:03Dad's reopened the investigation
01:05What?
01:05As in the crash?
01:06Oh, don't play dumb
01:08No, no, Joe
01:08I had no idea that he was doing
01:09What did you say to him?
01:10How did you talk him into it?
01:19Hey
01:19What have you got there?
01:22It's a letter from Cohen
01:24Really?
01:24Already?
01:25Yeah
01:25How's he settling in?
01:27Well, he didn't really say much about himself
01:28He was more worried about me and how I'm going without him
01:31That is so sweet
01:32That is just like him
01:33Yeah, isn't it?
01:34Hey, I've got to go to the diner and pick some things up
01:36Why don't we walk and talk?
01:37Oh, no, no
01:37I don't want to interrupt your day
01:39Come with me
01:39I want to hear all about it
01:41I miss him
01:41Yeah?
01:42Okay
01:43Lacey told me about the accident
01:46But, um, I didn't realise things were so complicated for your family
01:50It's taken its toll on all of us
01:52I can imagine
01:53I just want my girls to stop tearing each other apart
01:57Sorry the Barbie got derailed
02:01Oh
02:01Like Justin said, there may be plenty more chances, right?
02:05Of course
02:06Of course, absolutely
02:07And, um, David, if you need anything, just let me know, okay?
02:12Thanks
02:13See ya
02:13See ya
02:14What's this for?
02:33Stories like theirs
02:34Spook me
02:36I've got to keep the ones that we love close
02:39Sorry, you're back already
02:59Oh, it's you
03:01Sorry to disappoint
03:02Hey, what are you doing here?
03:04I, um, I wanted to drop off your wedding invitation
03:06Ooh
03:07Yeah, we've put a plus one on there for you
03:09Your call
03:10Thank you, I wouldn't miss it
03:12Great
03:13So, how's everything going with you?
03:15Is, um, is Archie with Tana?
03:17Uh, no, Archie is napping
03:19Tana has gone camping with Marley and John
03:21Ah, you're funny
03:22No, I'm serious
03:24Camping?
03:26Yeah
03:26With John?
03:27Yeah
03:27Oh
03:28Men don't make sense sometimes
03:31Yeah
03:31Mm, does that mean that the, uh, the dating apps aren't working out?
03:37Oh, I wouldn't say that
03:39Really?
03:40Okay, so you're still window shopping or are you?
03:43I went on a coffee date
03:45Go you
03:47Yeah, he was nice but there wasn't any chemistry
03:50Well, you've got to kiss a few frogs before you find a prince, right?
03:53Yeah, that's true
03:54In fact, I have another date tonight at Salt with a very cute single dad
03:58Oh, I'm hoping that'll be a better match
04:00Okay, well, I am working till eight, so I might see you there
04:03Ooh, great, it'll be good to get a second opinion other than my sister
04:06I love being with my dad
04:11And my grandma is super kind and makes me laugh
04:14Mm-hmm
04:15And I really miss you, Mr. Stewart and Marilyn
04:19Oh, sweet boy
04:20Hmm, sounds like he needs some sort of reassurance he's made the right decision
04:24Yeah
04:24Gotta think of what to say to him to make him feel better
04:27I'm sure you'll put his mind at ease
04:29Oh, definitely
04:30Hey, how was the barbecue?
04:35You really want to know?
04:37Yeah, I do
04:37Well, it didn't happen in the end
04:39Why?
04:41Because Joe stormed out of the house
04:43Not sure why, but it didn't look good
04:45Wow
04:47What?
04:48I just bumped into her
04:49She said the dad reopened the investigation
04:52To your mum's accident?
04:54She reckoned she found the case files at home
04:56No, oh, that can't be right
04:59Well, I thought so too, but why else would he bring the file home?
05:04Well, that explains Joe's reaction before
05:06Right?
05:07If this is true, this is massive
05:09It would change everything
05:11Hey Joe, just checking in
05:16Call me if you need anything
05:17Hey
05:20Oh, sorry
05:21No, you're fine
05:23I thought I heard your voice
05:24What happened to the trip?
05:26John pulled the plug early
05:27Hmm, that's a shame
05:28Yeah, it is what it is
05:30How's everything here?
05:33Uh, yeah, great
05:34I've lined up Dana to babysit tonight
05:36But seeing as you're here, you could do it
05:38Yeah, happy to
05:39Where are you headed?
05:41Uh, out on a date
05:42Right
05:43That's okay, isn't it?
05:45Yeah, nah, sure
05:46Cool
05:46Cool
05:47Thanks
05:48So, same guy as yesterday?
05:51Uh, no, new one
05:53Well
05:54Have fun
05:55Thank you
05:56Hey
06:08This is a surprise
06:10Can I come in?
06:12Like you need to ask
06:14Sorry, I skipped your housewarming
06:16Or whatever it was
06:18Forget it
06:19I just, I couldn't
06:20I understand
06:21It was a bit of a bust anyway
06:24Yeah, Theo told me
06:26Right
06:27Is that why you're here or?
06:31Is Joel around?
06:32I'm not sure where she is
06:33Why?
06:35I saw her earlier
06:37She told me that you've bought Mum's case file home
06:40Did she now?
06:44So it's true
06:45You're looking into the accident again
06:48Thank you
06:53You look great
07:14Sorry?
07:15Oh, no, you just
07:16It's a great outfit, eh, son?
07:20Thank you
07:21Bye, sweetheart
07:23Bye
07:24Mummy won't be later, promise
07:25See you
07:27Uh, he had a big nap this afternoon
07:30So he'll probably be up later than normal
07:32Alright
07:33And there's heaps of milk in the fridge
07:35Got it
07:36Call me if he's any trouble
07:39Or don't
07:41Sure
07:41Have a good
07:42Time
07:44What changed?
07:52Nothing
07:52But you always said that the case was closed
07:57That you accepted Joe hadn't done anything wrong
08:00I still believe that
08:02So why look into it again?
08:03I have my reasons
08:05Joe wasn't supposed to see the file
08:08You weren't meant to know about it either
08:10So it was meant to be a secret
08:12Why?
08:17What exactly is in that file, Dad?
08:19It's just a standard police investigation file
08:22I want to see it
08:23There's no way that's happening
08:24But, Dad, I need
08:25I don't want those images
08:27In your head
08:29I knew it
08:35Joe
08:37Joe, wait
08:39I worry if I mention Archie on my profile
08:45That I'll put people off
08:46Please, I've got two preteen daughters
08:49I need more testosterone in my life
08:51Wow, someone's drowning in the gloss and netball
08:54Yeah, apparently I'm going to miss this stage
08:57When they turn into hormone-fueled demons
08:58In a couple of years
08:59But I do not believe
09:00Would you like another drink?
09:06Sure
09:06We'll be back in a sec
09:08Pinch me
09:15Oh, that good
09:16Yeah
09:16He's so nice
09:18He's sweet
09:19And he's funny
09:20That's three good things
09:21And he's cute
09:22That's four
09:22His photo did not do him justice
09:24For the first time ever in the history of online dating
09:27Can I please get two more glasses of white wine?
09:30Yep
09:31Thank you
09:31Sounds like you're settling in
09:33Yeah, well
09:34Tana's back looking after Archie
09:35So I'm in a rush to get home
09:37All right
09:39How do I look?
09:41You're perfect
09:42Thank you
09:43Wish me luck
09:45Babe, you don't need it
09:46Got you?
09:52Thank you
09:53It's been a long time since we've done this
10:08Way too long
10:10Listen, I might just text Jo
10:15Let her know where we are
10:16In case she changes her mind
10:18Damn
10:19Take a hint
10:19She's angry
10:21Yeah, and I feel terrible about that
10:23Makes you think she actually does have something to hide
10:26Just for once, I wish you could put yourself in her shoes
10:30And I wish that she would put herself in mine
10:32I thought you didn't want to talk about this
10:36I don't
10:37Here we are, darling
10:40I thought you could do with my days
10:43Thank you
10:44How's it going?
10:45You've been out here for a while
10:46I don't know what to say
10:49Just write it from the heart
10:51What, and emotionally manipulate the poor boy?
10:53No, thank you
10:54No, you want to tell him that you're missing him
10:55But you don't want to make him feel bad
10:57Yeah, but I don't want to lie
10:59And say that everything's fine either
11:00It doesn't feel right
11:01No, you don't want to upset him
11:03Exactly
11:04All right
11:06Good job, little man
11:07You are getting so big
11:10You know what I mean?
11:13It's open
11:13Only me
11:15What are you doing, hey
11:17What's up?
11:17Hey
11:17Just finished work
11:19Thought I'd pop around and see how you're doing
11:21What was that?
11:24Well, um
11:25You know, I just wanted to get the goss
11:26On your camping trip with John
11:27Really?
11:29No
11:30No, no, no
11:30You're here
11:31Looking after your baby
11:33While his mum is out with another guy
11:35And just
11:35Thought I'd check in about it
11:37Right
11:37But
11:39So
11:42Are you okay?
11:47Define okay
11:48Oh, you're lucky
11:52I don't think my ex can quite get his head around me being back on the dating horse
11:57Well, it's an adjustment
11:59I know the day that my girls find out all hell's going to break loose
12:04You haven't told them?
12:07Well
12:08Only when I meet somebody really special
12:11Well, it is a school night
12:17So
12:18I guess we should wrap things up
12:21Well, do you live close by?
12:23I'll walk you home
12:25Oh, thank you
12:27That's okay
12:27Are you sure?
12:30Yeah, that's very kind
12:31It's alright
12:32I'll be fine
12:33Okay
12:34Well, um
12:35Goodnight
12:37Blue skies out in the open
12:41One life's day in the moment
12:44We've got new possibilities
12:47So we'll, uh
12:50Talk soon
12:51Yeah
12:52It's time to find what's uncovered
12:57There's so much out there left to see
13:00Okay, are you sitting down?
13:09He is the best?
13:11Yeah, I'm serious
13:12It went really well
13:13No, I'm not in the bathroom buying protection, Dana
13:17Yuck
13:18I can't wait to see him again
13:22I really hope he feels the same way
13:24Is it possible that you're a tiny bit jealous of Harper?
13:40Which would be totally normal, by the way, happens to the best of us
13:42No, I'm not
13:44I just feel a bit
13:47Ambushed
13:49That's all
13:49Okay
13:50Because
13:52A few weeks ago
13:53She was head over heels for you
13:55And now she's finally trying to move on
13:56It's a
13:57It's a good thing
13:59Don't it?
13:59Yeah, and I get that
14:00And I'm happy for her
14:01Yeah, 100%
14:02Then why is it getting to you so much?
14:08It's hard to accept that
14:10There could be another man in Archie's life soon
14:13You're his dad
14:16Nothing and nobody can change that
14:19I know
14:20But?
14:23I just can't help feeling that
14:25When Harper does find someone else
14:28I'm going to become
14:30Less important
14:33Look, I
14:35I don't have the easiest relationship with my dad
14:38But
14:39Nobody can take his place
14:41Like it or not
14:44Thanks
14:47Hey
14:50Hey
14:51Hi
14:51So, how did things end up?
14:55Oh, you know, it was fine
14:57How's Archie?
14:59You're good
14:59I put him down a while ago
15:00Thanks
15:01I might grab a shower
15:03And go to bed myself
15:04No
15:05No
15:06Thank you
15:17How did you go?
15:20Well, I ended up writing two letters
15:22Of course
15:22One
15:23Saying everything I wanted to say to Cohen
15:25But I will never send it
15:27You want to buy the other one?
15:28Ah, well this one's saying everything he needs to hear
15:30To reassure him and comfort him
15:32And to
15:32And to help him let go
15:34Actually
15:34It must have been hard, darling
15:36Yeah
15:36Anyway, I'll see you at home, okay?
15:38Okay
15:38Hey
15:40Ah, hey
15:42You came
15:43Couldn't say no to dessert
15:45So this is new
15:47And long overdue
15:49I take it you were right about the case being reopened then
15:52It hasn't been reopened
15:54I'm just checking to see if anything was missed the first time around
15:57Right
15:58And it wasn't meant to be common knowledge
16:01He's refusing to talk about it
16:03Hey, then I'll drop it then
16:05Thank you
16:06At least
16:07Someone is respecting my wishes
16:09Dad
16:10I've been begging you to do this for years
16:12Now that you're finally doing it
16:14You want me to just pretend like it's not happening?
16:16I don't want to
16:16Why?
16:17So if you do find something
16:18You can just sweep it back under the rug?
16:20I'd never do that
16:21Weren't you?
16:22If you find out that Joe is to blame
16:26Promise me that you will take action
16:29Glad you're still up
16:41We missed you at dinner
16:45Didn't feel right without you there
16:50Seemed to be getting on fine without me before
16:52I'm here for both of you
16:55I'm sorry about today
17:01I never meant for you to see that file
17:05I knew it would upset you
17:07All this time
17:10I thought you believed me
17:12I do
17:14But you didn't think I was at fault
17:15You're not
17:19That's what this is about
17:22Then what is it about
17:26What else can it possibly mean
17:29Except there's a part of you
17:30That thinks I might be guilty
17:31But I killed mum
17:34I don't think that
17:36I will never think that
17:38I don't believe you
17:46Otherwise you wouldn't be doing this
17:49Drew is smart and kind
18:07He's a gentleman
18:09He even knows what it's like to have kids
18:12He ticks all the boxes
18:14Okay
18:14Okay so what I'm hearing
18:16Is that this guy's the perfect man
18:17And that I should dump cash immediately
18:18And steal him from you
18:19Oh please
18:21You and cash are made for each other
18:22We are
18:23But I mean it's okay to get second prize
18:26I'm gonna tell him that you're calling that
18:28It's true
18:31Okay that is my cue to leave
18:32Yeah it's
18:33Why is he calling me
18:34Like isn't it too early to call
18:35Like what do I do
18:36Answer it
18:38Hi
18:43Yeah I'm good
18:46How are you
18:47I can definitely be free tonight
18:51What were you thinking
18:52Are you kidding
18:55My middle name's Korean barbecue
18:56So what's all that about
18:58A big date last night
19:00Oh
19:01Good for her
19:02It's nice to see her so happy
19:04Yeah
19:05It is
19:06I'm leaving
19:12Same
19:13I've got something I need to say
19:15And you both need to hear it
19:16So please
19:17Sit down
19:18When the original investigation
19:32Into your mum's accident
19:33Was happening
19:34I was going through hell
19:36We all were
19:39It meant
19:42That I was never able to go through
19:44The actual case file
19:45Myself
19:46I couldn't bring myself
19:49To look at those photos
19:52Or read the autopsy
19:54And I'm ashamed to say
19:57That I just waited for the final report
19:59But now I'm beginning to wonder
20:04If something was missed
20:06Because of that
20:07I'd say that that's very likely
20:09So I've decided to review it
20:13But not because I'm siding with one of you
20:17Over the other
20:17Or because I think that you're guilty
20:20I realised
20:25That we're never going to be able to move on
20:28As a family
20:30If we don't get everything
20:33Out into the open
20:35And work through
20:36And work through what happened
20:37Together
20:38I need both of you
20:43On board with this
20:44So if he doesn't find anything new
21:06Will you finally accept it?
21:07He will
21:08The truth's going to come out
21:09And when it does
21:10Mum's finally getting justice
21:11The dad might come to the same conclusion as before
21:13He won't
21:14And what if he does?
21:15People don't just drive into trees
21:16I asked for a copy of the triple zero call
21:18Is there anything to be gained from it?
21:20The identity of the caller
21:21For starters
21:22I always just assumed it was a passing motorist
21:24Could also be a witness to the accident
21:27Triple zero
21:27What service do you require?
21:29She's not breathing
21:30Who's not breathing?
21:31It's my mum
