00:00You know we belong together
00:03You and I forever and ever
00:08No matter where you are
00:12You're my guiding star
00:16And from the very first moment I saw you
00:21I never felt such emotion
00:25I'm walking on air
00:30Just to know you were there
00:35Hold me in your arms
00:37Don't let me go
00:40I want to stay forever
00:43Close to each day
00:46Home and away
00:48Even though we're both really trying not to focus on the next round of IVF
00:53I feel like we're still feeling it
00:55So I reckon we'd get away, have some down time
00:57I like what I'm hearing
00:58Okay don't get too excited because I also have been thinking that maybe it would be good for you to meet my mum
01:03I would love to
01:04Really?
01:05Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
01:06Good because she is very excited to meet the man intending on giving her grandchildren
01:11While you fired up the coffee machine, I fired Jennifer
01:14I'm going to marry you and Cash
01:16I was just so disappointed
01:17I had to abandon you last time
01:20That doesn't change the fact that you had no right to do what you just did
01:23Please let me do this
01:25Now as for the guest list, can we expect half the bay?
01:29Um, we decided to go with small and intimate
01:32And who will be walking you down the aisle?
01:35I haven't thought about that
01:36I've reviewed every piece of evidence linked to the accident
01:40But I've found no new leads
01:42We might just have to accept that we'll probably never know what happened
01:46I've got the girls' hopes up for nothing
01:48And mine
01:49I've let my daughters down
01:51I've let my wife down
01:53I can't imagine what you're going through, mate
02:01I was hoping if we found out what happened
02:05The girls would finally sort things out
02:08We could be a family again
02:11Look, I don't want to overstep, mate
02:14Have you ever tried cancelling?
02:18Sound like Joe
02:19He's been trying to get me to see someone for months
02:23It works
02:24Trust me
02:25Maybe
02:27Or we could go for coffee
02:30And I can keep giving you absolutely zero good advice
02:32Yeah, why not?
02:35I'm here
02:35Aidan
02:36Where are you?
02:40Ah, standing me up for your sister, eh?
02:45No, I'm kidding
02:46It's fine
02:47You should lock Aidan down while you've got the chance
02:50Alright
02:53See ya
02:54Are you alright?
02:57I'm fine, yeah
02:58I didn't realise that would be such a difficult question
03:02Well, ah, it is
03:03Oh, well, you know
03:05The bridal walk isn't really that important
03:07The grand reveal
03:09One of the biggest moments of the wedding
03:12Well, some people think that giving the bride away is a little old-fashioned
03:16We want a traditional ceremony
03:20You know, one where someone walks me down the aisle
03:22And people cry
03:24I just, I don't know who to ask
03:27People usually ask their fathers
03:30Yes, yes, I am aware
03:33But, uh, rumour has it that you and your dad aren't on the best of terms
03:37So they might all assume that he's just not an option at all
03:40Can we just figure this out later?
03:43But he is coming to the wedding
03:44Is he? Is he on the list?
03:45The fact that he's coming at all is a big deal
03:48Okay
03:50Alright
03:51You don't have to make up your mind today
03:54But just let me know what the plan is before the ceremony, huh?
03:57Yeah
03:57Yeah, okay
03:57Oh, hello
04:00Hey
04:01I thought we were working on wedding stuff today
04:03Uh, yes, John is back on board
04:05What happened to Jen?
04:07Jennifer's out, I'm in
04:08Alright, ladies, I will leave you to it
04:10And, uh, that other little matter we were discussing
04:13When you make a decision, you let me know
04:15Yep, yep
04:16Toodaloo
04:17Decision about what?
04:21And your nausea on the way home?
04:28No
04:29I think I left all my nausea back at Mum's place, thank goodness
04:33She seems sad to see you go
04:35Oh, I think she was sad to see you go
04:37I mean, you're clearly her new favourite
04:39I don't know if I can deliver on the grandkids front
04:42Look, she's been through IVF
04:44She knows how tricky it can be
04:46Yeah
04:46Must be why she was able to take such good care of you through the hall lines
04:50She really did
04:51You know, it was like being a kid
04:53Homesick from school again
04:55Are you ready for the ultrasound this afternoon?
05:00Mm-hmm
05:00Well, I'm as ready as I can be
05:03We've been here before
05:06Yeah
05:06It's nothing to fear
05:07Mm-hmm
05:08Except excruciating disappointment
05:10And maybe your mother
05:11So, are you really sticking with this traditional stuff?
05:18Well, at least for the ceremony
05:20It's kind of nice, right?
05:22Yeah, sure
05:23I'm just glad you're not walking down the aisle with your guitar
05:26Oh, shut up
05:27What if...
05:29What if I ask Mum to do it?
05:31Absolutely not
05:32You give her that spotlight, she will take over the whole thing
05:34You know that
05:35Yeah, true
05:36Okay, well, maybe I just...
05:37Maybe I just walk myself
05:38Is that...
05:39Is that weird?
05:41No
05:42But if you want to be traditional
05:44Please don't
05:45You should really be asking Dad
05:46Mm-hmm
05:47Well, you two have made up, haven't you?
05:50Yes, mostly
05:51And he's already coming to the wedding, right?
05:54Yes
05:54Yes, he is
05:55Just think about it, Eden
05:56How cool it would be having us all together
05:58I mean, that hasn't happened in forever
06:00It would make him happy, wouldn't it?
06:03Are you kidding?
06:04He would be over the moon
06:05Seems pretty straightforward to me
06:07All you need to do is pick up the phone and call him
06:10Hey
06:16Hey
06:18Uh, you hungry?
06:19No, not really
06:20Great news
06:21We have nothing
06:22Abigail and Marley have cleaned us out
06:24Oh, of course they did
06:25I'm gonna have a word to them
06:26No, no, it's okay
06:27As I said, I'm not really hungry
06:28I think I'm just nervous
06:29Yeah
06:30Yeah, me too
06:31But we've got nothing to be nervous about
06:33No
06:33You know, because last time
06:34You produced plenty of follicles
06:35That's true, I know
06:36It's Eden
06:41Hey, what's up?
06:44Now
06:44Can I not wait till later tonight?
06:48Okay
06:49Alright
06:50One second
06:51Eden said she needs to meet up and talk about something
06:54Well, that's okay
06:55We still have plenty of time for the appointment
06:56Are you sure?
06:57Yeah, but actually
06:57Can you pick up some food on the way back?
06:59Because I really should eat before we go
07:00That is a good idea
07:02Yeah
07:02Hey, uh
07:03I will be there
07:04Yes
07:05Okay, bye
07:06Um
07:07Okay
07:08Just, uh
07:09I'll be back as soon as I can
07:10So I just
07:10Try not to stress
07:11Yeah, right back at ya
07:12I'm not
07:13You are
07:13I don't know what I'd do
07:19If anything happened to Leah
07:20Let alone not knowing the whole story
07:23Maybe I'm not meant to understand
07:26Maybe this is what losing someone you love
07:29Is supposed to feel like
07:30Well, hello there
07:32Hope I'm not intruding
07:32I saw you two gentlemen out here
07:35And I thought I would join in
07:36May I?
07:38How are you, John?
07:39Excellent
07:39Nearly recovered from the shellacking
07:41You guys gave me at the poker game the other night
07:44Don't suppose there's any chance for rematches there
07:47So I can win some of my money back?
07:48Maybe some other time for me
07:50Yeah, I'm pretty busy too
07:51Hey, I'm back on board as cash and even celebrate
07:54Nice
07:54Yeah
07:55You do weddings
07:56Yeah
07:56Yeah
07:56I did Justin and Leah's wedding
07:58And a mighty fine job too, would you not say?
08:00It was great
08:01It was great
08:01I'll have to slip you my business card, mate
08:03In case you ever think about getting hitched again
08:05Oh
08:06Mate's rates, of course
08:08Excuse me
08:10Could I have a flat white silver plan?
08:14That's French
08:15Boning up on the French before the big trip
08:17Once this wedding's out of the way
08:19Bang, I am out of here toot de suite
08:21Yeah, great, John
08:23Aidan, hey
08:29What's the emergency?
08:30Is everything alright?
08:31Yeah, yeah, no
08:31Everything's fine
08:32I just wanted to talk to you about something
08:33Okay
08:35Okay, so
08:37John is back on board as our celebrant
08:39Okay, great
08:40Yep
08:41Problem?
08:42No, no, no
08:42It's good, actually
08:43He's made me realise that there are things that I want at the wedding
08:46That I haven't thought about
08:47Oh, you need some money
08:48No
08:49Hey, it's okay if you do
08:51What are big brothers for?
08:51No, I don't need money
08:53Alright, I'm just checking
08:54One of the things that he asked was whether anyone would be walking me down the aisle
09:00Ah, I'm not sure if you want Dad to do it
09:03Things are still getting better between you, right?
09:06Yeah, yeah, they are
09:07Okay
09:08But I was just, um, I was wondering if maybe you would do it
09:14With me
09:16You want me to walk you down the aisle?
09:20Yes
09:21You
09:22Well, this is more awkward than I expected
09:34Sorry, I just, uh, need a second to think
09:38About what?
09:40Is the idea of walking me down the aisle really that terrible?
09:44Oh, of course not
09:45Honestly, I'm just touched that you would even consider me
09:51Then say yes
09:53It's not that black and white, Eve
09:55What about Dad?
09:56I'm not asking him to do it
09:58Yes, we've come a long way
09:59But we're not there yet
10:00We're not
10:01Am I boring you?
10:04No, sorry
10:05I'm just keeping an eye on the time
10:06You got somewhere to be?
10:07I do, actually
10:09I have an ultrasound appointment with Mac
10:11Is everything okay?
10:14Yeah, yeah
10:14This is just the part where we find out how many follicles she has
10:17Why didn't you say something?
10:19Please don't let me keep you from that
10:21This is important, too
10:22Is Dad still coming to the wedding?
10:26As far as I know, yeah
10:27Yeah, well, I think you need to talk to him before this goes any further
10:30As far as I could have been a bit more delicate
10:34But how was I to know things were that bad between Eden and her dad?
10:38Maybe if you let the other person speak for a change of mind, learn something
10:41Yeah, fair cop
10:42Just like me, always putting my foot in it
10:44Yep, it is
10:45So
10:46But what about you two?
10:47When you both have daughters
10:48How would you feel if they didn't want you to walk them down the aisle?
10:51But Eden's father was invited
10:52He's like, you know, that's something
10:55Oh, I suppose so
10:56But it's not the same, is it?
10:59Look, I think I might head off
11:01Sure, mate
11:01Already?
11:02Yeah, I've got a few odd jobs to do today
11:04See ya
11:06Au revoir, monsieur
11:07Was it something I said?
11:11Oh, in so many ways
11:13Like what?
11:15He's got a lot going on with his family right now
11:17You know, he's not in a good way
11:19Well, you could have warned me
11:21Well, you could have shut up for five seconds
11:22Well, the poor bloke
11:25Must be hard moving into a new town and having no support
11:28Hey, mate
11:35What can I do for you?
11:37It's nice to see you around
11:37Ah, no, she's not in today
11:39Sorry
11:40Everything alright?
11:43Yeah, thanks
11:44Well, look who it is
11:50I am so sorry for the change of plans
11:52Ah, it's all good
11:53How is all the wedding stuff?
11:55Is there a lot to do?
11:57Are you kidding me?
11:58No
11:59There is heaps
12:00But at least Eden is finally starting to act like a bride
12:02Great, so she's excited now
12:04Yes
12:05Also, very stressed
12:07Which is completely normal
12:08She's even going to ask Dad to walk down the aisle
12:11Really?
12:13I didn't think they'd come that far
12:16Yeah, I know, right?
12:17Everything is just falling into place
12:20And now all we have to do is plan the rest of the wedding
12:22You're really into all this wedding stuff, eh?
12:28It's cute
12:28Oh, stop
12:30This isn't
12:31This isn't just about the wedding
12:33You know, this is the first time in forever
12:35That my family is finally going to be in the same place
12:38I'm happy for you
12:43Sorry, I have a quarter
12:44That's okay
12:45Did you get food?
12:47Food?
12:47No, I knew I forgot
12:49No, no, don't worry about it
12:50Just tell me, tell me
12:50What about Eden?
12:52She asked me to walk her down the aisle
12:55What?
12:56That's amazing
12:57Yeah, yeah, it is
12:58Especially with everything we've been through
13:00I didn't expect it
13:00You two have come such a long way
13:02Yeah, well, don't get too excited
13:04What? Why?
13:06Well, I haven't said yes
13:07Not until she talks to Dad, you know
13:10Right, okay
13:11Well, that's going to be a very fun conversation to have
13:13It's going to crush her
13:15There's no way around it
13:16And it's going to be worse if she finds out on the day
13:18I'm sorry, honey
13:19Families are so complicated
13:20Oh, oh, we need to go to make one of our own
13:23Okay
13:24Okay
13:24You ready?
13:25Mm-hmm
13:26You got everything?
13:27I think so
13:27Okay
13:28How are you feeling?
13:30I'm just
13:31Trying not to get my hopes up
13:33You?
13:35Yeah
13:35Yeah
13:36Same
13:36Enough of that
13:39Let's get this show on the road
13:40Yes, okay
13:40Off we go
13:41I've been looking for a sign
13:47For a flicker by a windowsill
13:50You've been swallowed when you pride
13:53But the fear now that's a harder pill
13:56It's a gamble
13:57It's a risk
13:58But I'm standing in the front porch light
14:01As the clock ticks on my wrist
14:03I can't watch you waste my precious time
14:06Hey, Dad
14:18It's me
14:19Yeah
14:22Yeah, I'm really excited about the wedding
14:24It's actually what I'm calling you about
14:27No, no
14:30You are
14:31You are still invited
14:33But, um
14:35There's something that I have to tell you
14:40And I'd really like your blessing on it
14:54Should I put some of this up?
14:56Yeah
14:56Sounds good
14:58It's a little odd how brief that was
15:03After all that waiting
15:04Yeah, it was
15:05So, how are you feeling?
15:10Um
15:11Good
15:13Weird
15:15The whole time I just kept looking over the ultrasound
15:19Being like, what am I seeing?
15:20You know, I don't even know what a follicle looks like
15:22That's alright
15:23That's why there are people whose job it is to know these things
15:26Hopefully we get the results back by the end of the day
15:29I know the drill
15:31This does feel different, right?
15:37Yeah
15:37And I think it's because
15:39Maybe we're being more realistic now
15:42You know, not getting our hopes up so high
15:44Yeah
15:45Yeah, you're probably right
15:47Okay, how much of this do you want?
15:49So much, please
15:50I am starving
15:51I was fast
15:53It won't be the clinic they'd be calling you
15:57It's Dad
15:59It's Dad
15:59Oh, what?
16:01You should answer it
16:02Hey, Dad
16:06How are you going?
16:10I'm guessing you've spoken to Eden
16:12G'day
16:33What's all this?
16:34Well, it's an apology, sort of
16:35Oh, he feels bad for interrupting us before
16:38So we thought we'd come around here and bother you here
16:40And you kind of looked like you needed some company anyway, mate
16:42Whether I wanted it or not
16:44Exactly
16:44Yeah, well, that's the way things work in the bay, mate
16:47It doesn't matter how down you are
16:49There's always someone around to bring you back up again
16:51Cheers to that
16:52You know, I've never had a beer in this place
16:55It's always been a dry house
16:56Well, unless, of course, there was the...
16:59John, making it weird again
17:01Oh, yeah, sorry, sorry, sorry
17:02Salud
17:03It's cheers in French
17:04Okay
17:05Hey, how did everything go with the ultrasound?
17:12Oh, yeah, no word yet
17:13You do it and wait for the results
17:15I can't help with the nerves
17:17No, no, certainly not
17:19But that's how these things go
17:20Well, if it's any consolation
17:23I have everything crossed for you guys
17:24Thanks
17:25So, Dad called me
17:32How did he sound?
17:33Was he...
17:34Was he okay?
17:35Disappointed
17:36He's all right, though
17:38You know, not that long ago
17:42You never would have asked about him
17:43What, if he was okay or not?
17:46Back then, I wouldn't have cared if I even heard him
17:49This feels much worse
17:52I think that's called progress
17:54Great, great, I hate it
17:56You've come a long way
17:59Yeah, we have
18:01So, um
18:04Now that Dad's given his blessing
18:08Do I want to walk my stubborn, ball-headed sister down the aisle?
18:16Well, when you put it like that, I mean
18:18Of course I do
18:21I'll be on it
18:25Thank you
18:27And you agreed?
18:33Just keep your voice down, Maxly
18:35I cannot believe you're true
18:36Eden was supposed to ask Dad
18:38You know, why can't you let the past just stay in the path?
18:40She still invited him to the wedding
18:41Oh, great, so he can be embarrassed in front of a whole crowd of people on the day
18:45Abby, that's not going to happen
18:46Really?
18:47You don't think everyone's going to be wondering why he's there and not walking her down the aisle?
18:50Look, Eden is just not ready for that
18:52You know what I really don't get is why she would choose you instead
18:55I mean, you guys didn't even talk for a decade
18:56Well, we're close now
18:57It's not like you didn't also cheat on your wife?
18:58Oh, Abby, that's too-
18:59What do you think is going to happen when he sees you up there?
19:02He's going to be devastated
19:03You get that, right?
19:04He and I have spoken, he's disappointed, but he understands
19:07You? No, you and Eden are just as bad as each other
19:10Every time things are going well for our family, you both have to tear it back down
19:13No!
19:17Hey, hey
19:18Are you okay?
19:33Yeah, alright
19:34I'll see you soon
19:36Bye, Dad
19:37What do you say?
19:40All the right things
19:41You know, how he's looking forward to the wedding and how grateful he is to be a part of it
19:45Okay, well, if that's what he's saying
19:47Yeah, but he was definitely covering
19:49You reckon?
19:50Yes, I could hear it in his voice
19:52He is devastated that he's not going to be the one walking Eden down the aisle
19:55Obviously, he's not going to make a big deal, Abby
19:57No, but it is a big deal
19:58This wedding was supposed to bring my family together
20:01Properly
20:02Yeah, and it can still do that
20:03No, no, it can't
20:04Now she looks to be awful and weird and uncomfortable
20:06You know, I wish Eden would just get over herself
20:09And Levi too
20:09I cannot believe that he agreed to this
20:11Well, you know, it wouldn't be a fairer event without at least some tension
20:16Yeah, that's a good point
20:18Yeah
20:18I just didn't expect Abby to take it that hard
20:21It's not her wedding
20:24You know, when it is, she can do whatever she wants
20:26You know, weddings are always awkward, that's why they have seeding plants
20:30Mm-hmm
20:32Hey
20:34Congratulations, though
20:37It's a big deal
20:38Thanks
20:41It's a clinic
20:49Mackenzie Boo speaking
20:57Okay
21:00Yes
21:04Thank you
21:07So what'd they say
21:13We've got nine follicles
21:16Nine?
21:19Nine follicles?
21:20That's more than last time
21:21This is
21:23This is good news
21:26Baby, what's wrong?
21:28What's wrong?
21:28What's wrong?
21:30What's wrong?
21:37You know, it's just so hard to get hyped up when things ended up the way they did before
21:43This time might be different
21:45Good to go?
21:46Guess who?
21:48Let's see what version of me turns up in an hour when the hormones start flying
21:53So he gets to be happy and I gets to be what? Devastant
21:55Oh, grow the hell up, Abigail
21:57This is only an issue because you and only you have made it one
22:01I know it's always the Abigail show
22:03But I am so over it
22:06I know it's quite a good one
22:11Thank you
22:14Thank you
22:15I know it's been aig
22:29Thank you
