00:01Closer each day
00:04Home and no way
00:08Theo!
00:09Theo, where is he?
00:10Where is he?
00:15Leah, I just want to explain.
00:16I don't care what you have to say.
00:18You were trouble from the moment Theo laid eyes on you.
00:21You are selfish and reckless, and that's why he's died.
00:25I want you to acknowledge that we lost our baby.
00:30And what would that achieve, hmm?
00:32She's got this wall up and I just can't seem to break through it.
00:34Oh, she's protecting herself.
00:36You're blocking me out.
00:37I would hate to see you and Levi fall apart over this.
00:39We are not falling apart over this. He's at his work, I'm at mine.
00:42We're just getting on with our lives.
00:45It's okay to still feel sad about what you're going through.
00:48I was barely pregnant.
00:49Ali, my baby didn't grow. Is that really enough to mourn?
00:52Ziggy and Dean are going to need help with a new baby,
00:54which means I can have quality time with Izzy.
00:56We're going to Queensland.
00:57The cheat face popped up for this afternoon.
00:59I'm going to grab it.
01:00Are you leaving today?
01:01Carpe diem.
01:02Levi, give me a call when you get this.
01:04Max is about to make a bad mistake.
01:12The whole amount of looking at water is going to make me feel better.
01:15Don't have to stay out for long.
01:19Change of scenery might help.
01:21I just feel like someone's thrown a big, heavy blanket over me.
01:28Let me just go home and hide under it.
01:33Morning.
01:34Hey mate.
01:36It's good to see you out and about.
01:38Wish I felt the same.
01:41Have you heard anything from the police?
01:43Have they caught the driver yet?
01:45As far as we know, still on the run.
01:48Blame the mongrel.
01:49You said it.
01:51Now that I'm out, I'm just going to go and check in on the diner.
01:54Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:55Marilyn's got everything under control.
01:56If you want to be out of the house, I'm just going to stick my head in.
01:59Hey Luke, can you chase up the magistrate?
02:10I want that warrant for Wendell's office.
02:13Answer's my first question.
02:14You still haven't found him.
02:16Wendell's gone on the ground.
02:17There's been no activity on his phone or his bank accounts
02:20and he hasn't been picked up on CCTV anywhere.
02:23How do we know he hasn't left the country?
02:25We put a block on his passport so we know he's still in the country.
02:30Maybe just not in the state.
02:32Look, at this stage we're just following every lead we can,
02:35hoping for the best.
02:37Yeah.
02:40How's Leah?
02:43It's not good.
02:46How's Lacey holding up?
02:47She's doing it tough.
02:50That was Lacey thinking.
02:52What did she think she was going to achieve?
02:58I should get on with it.
03:00I'll let you know as soon as there's an update.
03:10Cheers.
03:15Eden.
03:18Eden, wake up.
03:19Eden, come on, get out of bed. It's our last day.
03:24Oh, I don't want to get up.
03:26Are you sure?
03:27There's a surprise.
03:29Yes, because then you could do whatever you have planned.
03:33And then the honeymoon will be over.
03:36No, suit yourself, but I've got champagne.
03:40Okay, fine.
03:42I need a kiss first.
03:45Deal.
03:46Mmm, you got the fancy stuff.
03:49Mmm, I wish I could take credit for that.
03:51What do you mean?
03:53There's a card.
03:55Mmm.
03:56Here.
03:57Okay.
04:03It's from Dad.
04:05Dear Aiden, thanks for including me in your special day.
04:07Oh, my love, Dad.
04:11That's really sweet.
04:13I'm really glad that he was there in the end.
04:16Yeah, and the family's talking again, so that's a positive outcome.
04:19Yeah, it is.
04:21It's not the only one.
04:24So, after breakfast, what are we going to do?
04:26It's the last day.
04:27Are we going to stay in the room?
04:32I got us tickets to the Police and Justice Museum.
04:38I'm kidding.
04:39I know my wife better.
04:41Yeah, you'd better.
04:43Cheers.
04:45Cheers.
04:46Cheers.
04:49Who is she?
04:50Packing.
04:51She's already brought her flight to Queensland.
04:54Seriously?
04:55Yep.
04:57And I booked a non-refundable ticket, so don't even try and talk me out of it.
05:01I'm going to go out the back and work on a board.
05:03I'll leave you guys to it.
05:05Thank you for dobbin' me in.
05:08I'm worried about you.
05:10I won't apologise for it.
05:12He's not the only one, Mac.
05:17Ziggy and Dean have just had a baby.
05:20They need help.
05:22So, it is Aunty Mac to the rescue.
05:24Mac, that is the last thing you need right now.
05:27I'm not asking your permission, Levi.
05:30So, are you going to talk to me about this at all before you left, or are you just going to disappear?
05:34Well, you're here now, and you know what's happening. I'm going.
05:37That's that.
05:41Thanks.
05:46I'm sorry I snapped at you when you came to visit.
05:50Things are just difficult at the moment.
05:53Don't give it another thought, no?
05:56It's just all over the shop.
05:59Oh, sweetheart, of course you are.
06:01No one expects you to have it all together.
06:04Are you sleeping?
06:06No.
06:07No.
06:08No, not really.
06:10I drifted off last night, and I just had the awful dream.
06:17I was here, Theo, calling out to me.
06:21I couldn't see him.
06:23I couldn't help him.
06:25I'm so sorry.
06:26Hey.
06:28Hey.
06:30Hey.
06:31Any update from the police?
06:33Not yet, unfortunately.
06:35I can't believe that bloke's still out there.
06:38The police are doing all they can.
06:40Oh, not enough, really.
06:41Well, how about we can chat with me?
06:45You're seriously going for a run?
06:46Oh, yeah.
06:47Yeah, I want to check this place out.
06:48You can always come with me, you know?
06:50Have you met me?
06:51Besides, oh, I don't have the right clothes.
06:52Well, we could go shopping and get you started tomorrow.
06:54I don't remember any part of my vows, or yours, about me taking up running.
06:58So you're just gonna hang here and drink coffee?
06:59Oh, yep.
07:00That is the plan.
07:01All righty, Tarzan, I'm gonna get going.
07:05Don't you?
07:06Oh, no.
07:07So you're just gonna hang here and drink coffee?
07:10Oh, yep.
07:11That is the plan.
07:13Alrighty, Tarzan, I'm gonna get going, don't I?
07:17Mm-hmm.
07:18Oh, yeah.
07:21Oh, yeah.
07:22Oh.
07:23That's fine.
07:24Oh, yeah.
07:25That is the plan.
07:26All righty, Tarzan.
07:27Better get going, don't want to let yourself go now that we're married.
07:40Hey!
07:42Eyes off, he's mine.
07:57Are you hungry?
08:06Sorry?
08:08Want me to make you something?
08:10Maybe I could heat up one of those meals Maz brought over?
08:14No, it's okay. I can't really stomach anything at the moment.
08:18Sonny left a really lovely message. You want to listen to that?
08:22No.
08:23Sorry.
08:23No offence to Sonny or anyone else, I'm just, I know they're trying to be nice.
08:34I'll get it.
08:38Sandra.
08:46I'm so sorry, Phil.
08:50How are you holding up?
08:51He's holding up.
08:53I'm missing my boy.
08:55I miss him too.
08:58Come on, come in.
09:01Here you go.
09:06I am so sorry.
09:10You're a great kid.
09:11Thanks.
09:12Oh my son, I should just come and collect these things.
09:23Sorry?
09:24Theo's belongings, I can't expect you guys to keep them here.
09:29But they're not.
09:31He got rid of them.
09:33Theo's things are at his place.
09:35What are you talking about?
09:36I thought that he lived here.
09:39He moved out.
09:41Oh, when?
09:44Theo hasn't lived here for months now.
09:48What?
09:49Why didn't you tell me?
09:49Tell me.
10:00Does Dean know about the miscarriage?
10:04Does he even know we've been doing IVA?
10:06No, he doesn't.
10:08And you don't think that's relevant information given the circumstances?
10:11No, I don't.
10:13I want to avoid the pity, guys, which is exactly what I'm getting from you right now.
10:16It's not pity.
10:19Why did we have to tell everyone I was pregnant?
10:21I should have known it was too good to be true, Eve.
10:27I'll take care of letting people know.
10:28You don't have to tell them anything.
10:30You're right, I don't.
10:33I'm going to be in Queensland.
10:35Very far away from it all.
10:48I'm not ready to go home.
10:50Oh, let's just stay here.
10:51Oh, I've got a job and friends.
10:54That's overrated.
10:56Stick with me and I'll show you what life is called.
10:58Sticking with you is a given.
11:00Mmm, trapped forever.
11:01Trapped happily.
11:04Oh, married life suits me way too much.
11:08Yeah, I guess we could start making some decisions about what that looks like.
11:12What, about married life?
11:13Yeah, I mean, where are we going to live?
11:15I know you don't want to live with Tanya, Harper and Archie.
11:17Ooh, yeah, nah, I can't see you sharing a house with Remy.
11:22Nope.
11:23We're going to have to find our own place.
11:25Start looking when we go home.
11:26Mm-hmm.
11:28Back to Summer Bay.
11:30Back to married life.
11:31I can't wait.
11:33I can't wait.
11:34I can't wait.
11:39I can't wait.
11:41I had some idea about this girl, Lacey, but I didn't know it was serious.
11:46I'm sorry.
11:48We thought you were across this.
11:50He didn't tell me that they were living together.
11:54Maybe he didn't want to worry you.
11:56Or why would I worry they were happily in love by the sounds of it?
12:00It was a complicated situation when Theo and Lacey first got together.
12:09Go on.
12:11Well, you know how he had that accident where the car fell on him.
12:16What's that got to do with this girl?
12:18Lacey is the reason that happened.
12:21Lacey and her boyfriend at the time were involved in illegal car racing.
12:25Yeah, and they dragged Theo into it and it got out of control and he ended up in hospital.
12:30And you didn't think to pick up the phone and tell me about this?
12:34Cass, Theo's an adult.
12:37It's not for us to make announcements for him.
12:42Maybe Theo didn't want to say anything because he didn't want you to think badly of Lacey, but it's her fault.
12:52She is the reason Theo is dead.
12:55What do you mean? You said that it was a hit and run?
12:57No, Theo never should have been there.
12:59Lacey dragged him into something that's happening with her own family.
13:02I'm really struggling to get my head around this.
13:05Okay, if you want some answers, you need to go and talk to Lacey's father.
13:10Whoa, is that a good idea?
13:12How do I do that? How do I get in touch with him?
13:14Well, he's the local police sergeant. I'll take you there right now.
13:17There you are.
13:18Cassandra deserves to know the truth.
13:32Welcome home, Mrs. Newman.
13:37Thank you, Mr. Fowler.
13:42This isn't exactly the welcome party I was expecting.
13:45Oi, Ram, you here?
13:49Ram!
13:51Dude, get out here. We're home!
13:54Ram, you here?
13:57Where is he?
13:58Could be a hint.
14:09I don't believe it.
14:10Oh no, what's he done now?
14:12He's... he's moved out.
14:14What?
14:15He said he's letting us have this place all to ourselves.
14:19And he has paid rent for the rest of the year.
14:22As a wedding present.
14:24Well, that's better than a toaster.
14:26Give it.
14:28Where's Remy gone?
14:29What's he doing?
14:32Poor Leah.
14:33She looks exhausted.
14:35I wish there was something I could do to help.
14:37Why?
14:38You're keeping this place running.
14:39That must be a huge weight off her shoulders.
14:41I just can't believe I'm never going to see Theo again.
14:44Come on, guys, you don't have to do that.
14:54You know, if you're talking about me and Leah or Theo, it's okay.
15:02We were just worried about how Leah was, that's all.
15:05Yeah, me too.
15:06Especially now.
15:07So, Theo's mum, Cassandra, just turned on.
15:11It's true.
15:12That must be difficult for everyone.
15:15Well, Leah's taken her down to the police station to talk to David.
15:19Well, I'm sure the Sarge will handle it.
15:24Darling, do you have any news about the funeral arrangements?
15:27Because people have been asking.
15:29Yeah, I know I got a message from Sonny who's keen to know the arrangements as well.
15:33Will it be here in the bay?
15:35I'm assuming it's going to be in the city.
15:38I'll talk through it with his mum and then I'll let you know.
15:48What would you like to know?
15:49Could you please tell Cassandra what Theo was doing the night he was run over?
15:56I feel like there's so much that I don't know about what happened to my son.
16:00Leah said his girlfriend was involved.
16:02Lacey Miller was on her way to confront an alleged criminal and she asked Theo to go
16:07with her for safety.
16:09And why did she want to confront this criminal?
16:12The driver who struck your son is the same man that killed my wife.
16:18That's why Lacey was after him.
16:22I didn't know any of this.
16:24Lacey got Theo killed.
16:26That's what you meant to say, right?
16:28Cassandra, Theo was a fine young man.
16:35He saved my daughter's life.
16:38Now, I know it's probably cold comfort right now, but your son died a hero.
16:43Are you kidding me?
16:45He shouldn't have died at all.
16:47Leah, would you mind?
16:49I need to speak to the sergeant alone.
16:52Cassandra.
16:53Please.
16:54Remy says not to worry about him and that he's fine.
17:11No word on where he'll be living.
17:13Just that he'll be back soon and we'll catch up then.
17:17Okay.
17:18Look, is it too much?
17:20Can we accept?
17:21Are we taking advantage?
17:22I mean, it's not just about the money.
17:24I don't know where he is.
17:26Is he really okay?
17:27Well, the text says he's fine.
17:30Yeah.
17:31Yeah, it does.
17:32It does.
17:33Maybe.
17:34Could be rude to turn down such a generous gift.
17:40So, I guess I'm moving in.
17:43I guess that you are.
17:48We were dreading leaving the hotel room and...
17:51Now that we're back, life just gets better.
17:55Sure does.
18:05Trying to prove that you don't care about something I know you care an awful lot about is torture.
18:10So what, you're a psychologist now?
18:12I don't have to be able to figure this one out.
18:14But you're wrong.
18:16Mac, being around a new baby, you are setting yourself up for heartbreak.
18:20I'm still going.
18:23What happened to being in this together?
18:25If I, please...
18:26That's what a relationship is.
18:28It affects both of us, what you're doing right now.
18:30It affects me.
18:35I feel like we're not even on the same team anymore.
18:37I don't care.
18:38My taxes are going to go.
18:41Well, I mean...
18:42I'm justМ.
18:43I don't think...
18:44You're a substitute for a new life.
18:45I won't be able to give you a new life.
18:47You're a small adult.
18:48Can you help me now?
18:49I'm gonna help your teachers.
18:50So, I'll help you.
18:51Where's Mac?
19:18On her way to the airport.
19:21Couldn't talk her out of leaving then?
19:26She didn't want to hear a word I had to say.
19:30I'm sorry, ma'am.
19:33I don't know what to do.
19:37I guess she just needs some time here.
19:42For all I know, she's going for good.
19:48Take care.
19:49Thanks, Sergeant.
19:51Are you okay?
19:53No, Leah, I'm not.
19:55Did you get all your questions answered or did you downplay his daughter's involvement?
20:00I have to go.
20:01Cassandra.
20:02You promised me that you would take care of Theo.
20:07What?
20:08You're blaming me?
20:09What did David tell you?
20:12What lies did he say?
20:13That man is trying to bring my son's murder into justice and all you can do is attack him.
20:17Hey, you know this would have happened if it wasn't for his daughter.
20:20I've heard enough.
20:21Hey, where are you going?
20:22Home.
20:23Just wait.
20:24There are things that we need to talk about.
20:27What about the funeral?
20:28You're not coming to the funeral.
20:30What?
20:31I don't want you there.
20:33Leah, stay away from me and my family.
20:36Okay.
20:53Well, all goes back.
20:56Hey, Al.
20:57How's it going?
20:58How was your honeymoon?
20:59We loved it.
21:00Yeah, pure bliss.
21:01I was a bit worried that the dreadful news might have spoiled it.
21:03What dreadful news?
21:04A hit and run.
21:05I mean, what kind of evil person does that?
21:07You got leads?
21:08We've got more than a lead.
21:09We know who did it.
21:10I'm gonna give Leah and Justin a call tomorrow and see if there's any news about the funeral.
21:14Do you remember when he told me that Wendell attended your wife's funeral?
21:17What if he feels the same way about Theo?
21:19You think he'd go to the funeral?
21:20Well, I think it's a long shot.
21:21We could go and we could stake it out.
