00:00So you've likely had a heart attack and I need to get your blood test.
00:11Let go of me!
00:12Calm down.
00:13Get it off!
00:14I'm so sorry I left you alone with that guy.
00:17If I hadn't, this might not have happened.
00:19Hey, hey, hey.
00:20None of this is your fault.
00:22You want me to walk you down the aisle?
00:24Yes.
00:25And you agree?
00:26Keep your voice down, Maxine.
00:27I cannot believe you're true.
00:29I was supposed to ask Dad.
00:30This wedding was supposed to bring my family together.
00:32Yeah, and it can still do that.
00:33No!
00:34No, it can't.
00:35Now it's just going to be awful and weird and uncomfortable.
00:37You ready for the ultrasound this afternoon?
00:39Mm-hmm.
00:40Well, I'm as ready as I can be.
00:42Yeah.
00:43So what'd they say?
00:45We've got nine follicles.
00:46Nine follicles?
00:47That's more than last time.
00:49Jesus.
00:51This is good news.
00:59I have missed this.
01:00Yeah, you can't beat it, can you?
01:01Remind me to never take it for granted.
01:03Okay.
01:04Mm-hmm.
01:05Um, I feel like I should get your stuff from the car and then we go upstairs for a little
01:08rest.
01:09Oh, all I've been doing is resting.
01:10Well, that's because it's an important part of your recovery, Doctor.
01:12Oh, I really appreciate you picking me up from the hospital, but I'm fine.
01:16I can take it from you.
01:17Oh, yeah?
01:18Yeah.
01:19Nah, I don't think so.
01:20Uh-huh.
01:21From now on, I don't want you to consider me as your flatmate or even your friend.
01:24Okay?
01:25I'm your nurse.
01:26Lucky me.
01:27Mm-hmm.
01:28Better believe it.
01:29As your nurse, I think it's a good idea that you rest.
01:31Do you know what else is a good idea?
01:33Coffee.
01:34Okay, well, why don't we go upstairs and get you settled and then I will run down, get
01:38you a takeaway and bring it back up.
01:40Yeah?
01:41Nah.
01:42Not happening.
01:43Okay.
01:44Oh, it is.
01:45Great.
01:46Hi.
01:47You're home.
01:48Yes, finally.
01:49It's so good to see you.
01:51I've got a fresh lasagna at the diner.
01:53I could bring it up for your dinner later if you like.
01:55Oh, thank you, Maz, but that's really not necessary.
01:57You know, everyone just needs to stop making a fuss of me.
02:00I'm not at hospital and that's all I care about.
02:06I'm sorry for bringing the mood down.
02:08Hey, do not apologize.
02:11Just talk to me.
02:12What's got you spooked?
02:13It's all good.
02:14We can go ahead with the trigger injections.
02:17Mac, what is the problem?
02:21I just...
02:24I don't feel excited.
02:27Okay.
02:28Last time I read this point, everything was so exciting, so hopeful.
02:37Yeah.
02:38It's to be expected that the novelty's worn off the second time around.
02:42It's more than that.
02:43You know, it's just so hard to get hyped up when things ended all the way they did before.
02:49And now I just feel like I'm constantly waiting for the inevitable bad news.
02:54It's completely understandable.
02:55I don't want to feel like this, Levi, but it's like I can't help it.
02:59I know.
03:00I know.
03:02Listen to me, we have to stay positive, okay?
03:05We have to.
03:07This time might be different.
03:12Come on.
03:18So, do you know when the man who attacked you is going to be sentenced?
03:21Oh, they haven't set a court date yet, as far as they know.
03:24He's in prison, right?
03:25Yeah, he's on remanded until court.
03:27That's good.
03:28Imagine they will throw the book at him.
03:30I hope so.
03:31You deserve justice, Bree.
03:33I just don't know if it's justice if he ends up in prison.
03:36How do you figure that?
03:37Well, he was a drug user, so society has already failed him once.
03:40How is prison going to help?
03:42You're a very compassionate person.
03:46I think we should probably go on for that rest we talked about.
03:48All right.
03:49Thank you, Maz.
03:50Bye-bye. Nice to see you.
03:51Thank you, Maz.
03:52Bye, darling.
03:53You okay?
03:54Hi.
03:55Hi.
03:56Nice to see you, Bree.
03:58Nice to see you.
03:59Hey.
04:00Hi. You look happy.
04:01I got a package from Cohen.
04:02Lovely.
04:03And look, you made me this.
04:05Oh, that is wonderful.
04:06Adrian said he wanted to share some carpentry skills with Cohen.
04:09Wow.
04:10That's amazing.
04:11Yeah.
04:12And what a thoughtful gift.
04:13And it works.
04:14Yeah.
04:15Oh, it's really beautiful.
04:21Good to go?
04:22Guess so.
04:23I love you.
04:24I love you.
04:25I love you too.
04:26All okay?
04:27Mm-hmm.
04:28Sweet.
04:29Yep.
04:30Well, I'm fine for now, but let's see what version of me turns up in an hour when the hormones start flying.
04:36Oh, yeah.
04:37We're all looking forward to that.
04:38Mm-hmm.
04:39So, best thing to do is probably just chill out here?
04:42No.
04:43No, no, no.
04:44I'm in no mood to chill.
04:45What are you planning on doing then?
04:46Well, I think I might go into work and do some stock take.
04:49Working through all this wasn't exactly fun for you last time, right?
04:50I know, but it's either that or I sit here and overthink everything, including you.
04:55No one wants that.
04:56No.
04:57That's why I need to be busy and distracted.
04:58I'll drop you.
04:59I'll drop you.
05:00Oh, yeah.
05:01Oh, yeah.
05:02We're all looking forward to that.
05:03Mm-hmm.
05:04So, best thing to do is probably just chill out here?
05:05No.
05:06No, no, no.
05:07I'm in no mood to chill.
05:08What are you planning on doing then?
05:09Well, I think I might go into work and do some stock take.
05:12Working through all this wasn't exactly fun for you last time, right?
05:14I know, but it's either that or I sit here and overthink everything, including you.
05:17I'll drop you.
05:22Oh, it's so quiet.
05:23Yeah, it is.
05:24Sonny's at his brother's graduation and Theo and Lacey went away for a few days.
05:28Oh, nice.
05:29Yeah.
05:30You get to rest in peace.
05:36Who's messaging you?
05:37It's not Remy still hassling you, is it?
05:38Oh, he's not.
05:39He's not.
05:40I haven't heard from him since the hospital.
05:42Good.
05:43Good.
05:44He finally got the message to steer clear.
05:45Yeah, he did.
05:47I'm sorry.
05:48That's probably taking a while to get your head around.
05:50It is.
05:51Hmm.
05:52So who was the message from?
05:54Oh, it was from hospital admin checking in to see if I was okay again.
05:59Why is that a problem?
06:00Well, because they don't actually care.
06:03Well, that's not entirely true.
06:05No, it is.
06:06I mean, they're so worried that I'm gonna sue them that they can't even focus on the real issue,
06:11which is the fact that we put our safety at risk every day when we're just trying to do our jobs.
06:15Oh, that is true.
06:16Yeah.
06:17There's so many stories that I won't get into right now, because I feel like I should probably get a start on dinner.
06:24Well, I was thinking, why don't you join me at Salt later?
06:28And the rest that we talked about?
06:30Ah.
06:31Well, why don't we make a deal?
06:33If I rest now, then you'll come to Salt with me later.
06:36Fine.
06:37Fine.
06:38You have to rest.
06:39Like, right now.
06:40Okay.
06:41Yes.
06:42Nurse Dana.
06:43Okay.
06:50I'll get us some drinks.
06:52That's all right.
06:53Abby, just leave it.
06:54Oh, look.
06:55Judas has arrived.
06:56Well, what else would you call the backstab up, huh?
06:58I don't want to have this conversation with you right now.
07:00Why are you having a go at Levi?
07:01You know it wasn't his decision, yeah?
07:03Yeah?
07:04Well, he didn't have to agree to it, did he?
07:05But why wouldn't he?
07:06He was honoured to be arsed after everything that him and Eden have been through, and you
07:10know that.
07:11Yeah?
07:12Yeah.
07:13How selfish is that?
07:14Selfish?
07:15Yeah, selfish.
07:16Dad finally feels like he's a part of the family.
07:17Shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up.
07:18Matt, it's okay.
07:19No, it's not okay.
07:20It's not okay.
07:21Can you just be happy for your brother for just one minute, or is that too much to ask?
07:23So he gets to be happy and dad gets to be, what, devastated?
07:25Oh, grow the hell up Abigail!
07:27This is only an issue because you, and only you, have made it one!
07:31Why don't we all just sit down?
07:32No thanks, I don't want to indulge all of this.
07:34I know it's always the Abigail Show, but I am so over it.
07:40And so is everyone else.
07:43Abby, hang on.
07:49That was pretty full on.
07:52Mack is so unfair, and Levi, I cannot believe that he just stood there and said nothing.
07:58Yeah, but it wasn't great.
07:59It wasn't great?
08:00That, sorry, that, that, that, that's all you've got to say?
08:03You agree with her, don't you?
08:04Her words were brutal, yes.
08:06But she made a fair point.
08:07Are you kidding me?
08:08Are you kidding me?
08:09You said you wanted this wedding to, to bring everyone together.
08:14You causing a fight is doing the exact opposite.
08:15Yeah, look, but I...
08:16I...
08:17I...
08:18I...
08:19It wasn't great.
08:20It wasn't great.
08:21It wasn't great?
08:22That, sorry, that, that, that, that, that's all you've got to say?
08:23Oh, you agree with her, don't you?
08:27Her words were brutal, yes.
08:29But she made a fair point.
08:30Are you kidding me?
08:32You said you wanted this wedding to, to bring everyone together.
08:37You causing a fight is doing the exact opposite.
08:41Yeah, look, but I...
08:43This is Eden's, Eden's wedding, right?
08:48Which means that it is Eden's choice.
08:50So what am I supposed to do?
08:52Say nothing?
08:53Yes.
08:54Even when it is so messed up?
08:56It's their decision.
08:58And what if I can't accept that?
09:01Well, you're not going to go boycott the wedding in protest?
09:04Yeah, well, maybe I will.
09:05Okay.
09:06That'll just make things ten times worse.
09:10Look.
09:11This might not be the wedding that you imagined.
09:16It's still pretty great that everyone is going to be there.
09:22Yeah, I guess.
09:24It's because of you.
09:27Me?
09:28Well, you're the one that encouraged Eden to invite your dad.
09:35That's something to be pretty proud of.
09:48Hey.
09:49Hey.
09:51You can come in, I'm not going to buy it.
09:59You okay?
10:01That's a good question.
10:03I mean, I feel like the hormones have definitely kicked in.
10:06Maybe.
10:07Yeah.
10:09What's that really about?
10:10As silly as it sounds, I just really wanted you to have the win.
10:18Because we haven't had many of those lately.
10:21I don't need a win.
10:23Okay, I'm alright.
10:24See, that's the thing.
10:25Isn't it?
10:27You have been so good to me throughout this whole IVF rollercoaster
10:30and you deserve to be more than just alright.
10:35I'll take the win with Aiden.
10:36Yeah.
10:37Even if Abby doesn't approve.
10:38No, see, that's the thing.
10:39She's trying to ruin it all and I'm not going to have it.
10:41I'm not.
10:43Clearly.
10:48Look, why don't we take a break, okay?
10:50Come get a coffee.
10:51Okay.
11:00Well, here we go.
11:02No, we're not doing round two, no.
11:04I'm not here for that.
11:06I'm here to apologise.
11:21There we go.
11:22Oh, perfect timing.
11:23It is.
11:25Did you write two versions this time?
11:26No, I didn't need to.
11:27This one was much easier to write.
11:29Oh, well done.
11:30I'm so happy being in contact again.
11:31Of course you are.
11:32I'm not naive, you know.
11:33He's a teenage boy.
11:34He's not going to want to write letters forever.
11:36Well, you never know.
11:37He is a lovely boy.
11:38Yeah.
11:39You know what?
11:40He's very fond of you and he asked about you in his last letter.
11:42Did he?
11:43Mm-hm.
11:44What'd he say?
11:45He said he misses your cooking.
11:47I miss him too.
11:48The house is too quiet without him.
11:49I know.
11:50But we know he's happy, right?
11:52Yes, we do.
11:53Enjoy.
12:00You know, as the person that insisted we go out for dinner,
12:03I was thinking you might want to chat.
12:06Or talk.
12:07Or converse, you know, something in the realm that makes sound.
12:11I'm sorry.
12:12It's okay.
12:13But, you know, maybe this actually just wasn't a good idea.
12:15Let's not go that far.
12:16We have dessert.
12:17Not a bad idea.
12:19I'm just saying that if there is something that you want to talk about, even just vent,
12:23you know, I'm here.
12:24I'm just trying to make sense of all the thoughts in my head.
12:28And you know what actually I think I've realised is I'm angry.
12:31At the Bart guy or at the hospital?
12:34The whole situation.
12:36Like, the fact that I'm sitting here at all is a miracle.
12:39And that's a pretty confronting thought, isn't it?
12:42The thing is, I should never have been in that situation in the first place.
12:48And I really wish the security guards had gotten there soon.
12:51Yeah, but they should have already been.
12:53Like, why aren't they always there?
12:55We are at risk every shift.
12:57I don't know.
12:58I mean, I was literally saying this Sunday the other day.
13:01I have more time than I can count where I've had to deal with aggressive patients or aggressive families.
13:07And if security aren't there, then we just have to hope that we have enough staff to deal with the situation.
13:12Yeah.
13:13You're right.
13:14I mean, we should feel safe in our workplace.
13:16And there's something seriously wrong when neither of us go.
13:37Hey.
13:38You all right?
13:39Mm-hmm.
13:40Yeah, yeah, yeah.
13:41Fine.
13:42Go back to sleep.
13:43Are you sure?
13:44Are you not feeling nauseous?
13:45No.
13:46What'd you say?
13:48It seems to be the dream.
13:50Okay.
13:56What happened?
13:57It was our baby.
14:00He was asleep.
14:02And we're both looking into his cot, just watching.
14:06So in love.
14:10And he was so cute.
14:13And so tiny.
14:15And he was ours.
14:18The family we've always wanted.
14:21Sounds beautiful.
14:24But then I woke up.
14:27I realise we're so far away from that.
14:32We are going to have a family.
14:38We just have to be patient.
14:40It hurts me, Levi, to want something this badly.
14:46To want something this badly.
15:07Okay, I'm off to the post office.
15:09Um, I've got something to add.
15:11Uh-huh.
15:12It's not too late.
15:13This white banana bread recipe for Cohen is his favourite.
15:16And I thought he could make it with his family.
15:18Oh, he'll love it.
15:19That's very kind.
15:20That's not too lame.
15:21This is not lame.
15:22What are you talking about?
15:23Sorry to interrupt.
15:24Um, have either of you seen Bree this morning?
15:26No, I haven't.
15:27No, why?
15:28Oh, just, she wasn't there when I woke up.
15:30Um, and now she doesn't answer my phone calls.
15:32Oh, well, how was she last night?
15:34Fine, yeah.
15:35I, well, sort of.
15:37You're worried.
15:38Oh, just, she's still recovering from the attack.
15:40Yeah.
15:41And the whole Remy thing.
15:42Well, if I see her, I'll let you know.
15:44Yeah, I will too.
15:45Okay, thank you.
15:46It's probably nothing.
15:47We'll just, thank you.
15:48Alright, sweetheart, see ya.
15:49Bye.
15:50Hey.
15:51Hey.
15:52You can see you out of the hospital.
16:08Yeah, thanks.
16:09How are you feeling?
16:11Oh, look, it's still pretty sore.
16:14What I wouldn't do to be out surfing right now.
16:16Yeah.
16:17It's a pretty good way to clear their head.
16:21That obvious, is it?
16:23Something on your mind?
16:26Yeah.
16:27I might not be as good as the wave, but I'm happy to try and help out whatever's going
16:33on.
16:34I just feel so angry.
16:37You know, the attack should never have happened.
16:39I should have been protected.
16:41You're 100% right.
16:42It shouldn't have.
16:43Yeah, but I don't know what to do with this anger.
16:45I don't know how to get past it, but...
16:49Sometimes when I feel angry, it's...
16:52It's not always a bad thing.
16:54Oh, really?
16:55Yeah.
16:56I can use it in my art to help push me to do something that I've been putting off.
17:02You have every right to feel angry.
17:06It's good.
17:07You grew out a way to use it.
17:08Do you feel...
17:09Hmm.
17:10Oh.
17:11Your coffee's there.
17:12Oh, thank you.
17:13Don't know if I can stomach it though.
17:14Hey.
17:15How are you feeling this morning?
17:16These hormones are no joke.
17:17Can I get you anything?
17:18No.
17:19Thank you though.
17:20Hey, hey, hey.
17:21That's not for you.
17:22Sorry, Nod.
17:23Sorry.
17:24Oh, but for the record, I'm not taking back yesterday's apology.
17:26That one still stands.
17:27Water under the bridge.
17:28I hope Eden got one too.
17:29I didn't have a go at her.
17:30So all that attitude was just for me?
17:31Yep.
17:32Then you really are okay with everything then.
17:35I still feel really bad for Dad.
17:37But I get that it's easy for me.
17:38You know what I'm supposed to do?
17:39You know what I'm supposed to do?
17:42Oh, I'm supposed to be good for Dad.
17:43Yeah, I'm supposed to be a good day.
17:44I'm supposed to be a good day.
17:45I'm supposed to be a good day, but I'm supposed to be a good day.
17:46I'm supposed to be a good day.
17:48Hey.
17:49How are you feeling this morning?
17:51These hormones are no joke.
17:52Can I get you anything?
17:53No.
17:54bad for dad, but I get that it's Eden's decision, and if everyone else is okay with it, then
17:59I will be too. What's in the bag? I am going to the city for a few days with Eden to do
18:04some wedding dress shopping. And mum's going to come too. A couple of days? How many shops
18:07are you going to? All of the shops. Eden wants something that's traditional, but also still
18:12feels like her. Oh, that's hard. Tall order. Yeah, tell me about it. Hopefully we'll find
18:16something that works. Clock's ticking. Not long to go now. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. We'll
18:21be fine. And a lot can happen in a few weeks. You know, someone could be pregnant. That
18:25would be amazing. I really would want that. Let's just be quietly hopeful. Yeah. Okay.
18:32Could I get a lift to Eden's on your way to work, please? No can do. I'm taking the day
18:36off. I called them earlier and said I'm not coming in. I'm going to look after my favourite
18:40bush nookie. Your future child is going to find you guys so embarrassing. Thank you. I love you.
18:51I love you.
18:55Oh. Oh. Everything okay? Yeah, I think so. Um, I just got an email from the foster coordinator.
19:09They came to chat to me. Well, what about? Another child needs a placement. Oh, you told
19:14them that you needed to break. Yeah, I did. I did. Maybe they didn't get the message.
19:18What are you going to do? I'm going to have to talk to them. I have to figure out what's
19:22going on.
19:32Yeah, right. Um, thank you. See you later. Bye.
19:37What are you doing, Sydney?
19:38Well, the foster placement is long-term and it's a six-year-old boy. Oh, poor little thing.
19:46I thought since I was open to adopting Cohen that I might be interested in a new long-term
19:52placement.
19:53Didn't they get the message about you wanting to take a break?
19:56Yeah, they did, but they thought they'd ask anyway.
19:59How do you feel about that?
20:01I don't know. I just made peace with Cohen leaving.
20:04I guess you wanted to take a break for a reason.
20:09I did. At least they must be desperate. You know, otherwise they wouldn't have asked.
20:17All right, I just need you to tell me where you are because I am starting to freak out
20:20a bit. Actually, maybe a little bit. Maybe a lot. Maybe, I don't know. Because, oh, and
20:24you're walking through the door right now and, wow, you have some explaining to do, young
20:27lady.
20:27I didn't mean to worry you.
20:29Then why didn't you answer any of my calls or my texts?
20:31Oh, my phone's dead.
20:33Well, that's an annoyingly simple explanation.
20:35What did you think had happened?
20:37I don't know. You were struggling. And then last night you were saying that you were angry.
20:40Oh, well, you got that part right. I'm still angry. I'm furious, actually.
20:44Okay.
20:44Which is why I've made a decision.
20:47No, don't quit your job. Please don't quit your job.
20:49No, no, no, no. I'm not going to do that. I am going to hold the hospital responsible
20:53for my attack. What happened to me, it did not need to happen. I should never have been
20:57put at risk like that.
20:58Absolutely.
20:59Which is why I'm going to make sure that nothing like that ever happens again.
21:09Are you okay?
21:10Not at all.
21:11I have a date with Jo.
21:13So, what's the problem?
21:14It's date number three.
21:15You're okay. So you think it might get physical?
21:18Do you think I'm not? I'm just not ready.
21:19This guy is obviously keen on you, and I know that you like him. Focus on that. Whatever
21:24happens, happens.
21:25Hi.
21:25I'm Dana, the sister. I know so much about you.
21:29She's been talking about me, huh?
21:30Mostly good things. That's enough. Let's go.
21:34I'm really glad that we're doing this.
