00:00Closer each day
00:03Home and away
00:06Leah, I need you to know
00:10that he saved my life last night
00:11I just want to explain
00:13I don't care what you have to say
00:15You were trouble from the moment Theo laid eyes on you
00:17You are selfish and reckless
00:20and that's why he's dying
00:21How did you keep living on every day after mum died?
00:25It's hard, but Theo would want you to live your life too
00:30Please, I miss him
00:32I miss him too
00:35Harper, there's no easy way to tell you this
00:38Your father died
00:39What about mum?
00:41She's still alive, do you think you'll get in touch?
00:43What is wrong with you?
00:44Knowing that dad's gone, you're not even the slightest bit curious
00:47about what's happened to mum
00:48I don't care if she's alive, she's dead to me
00:51Why did she interfere?
00:52Harper asked me to look into it for you
00:53It's a private matter and one that I told her to drop
00:56Our mother should never be near a child again
00:58I am not denying that she was abusive and neglectful
01:03But it's been four years since dad died and people change
01:06Yeah, but monsters don't
01:10What's that for?
01:25This work was a good idea, that's all
01:27It was
01:28Oh, isn't it lovely to see you two out and about?
01:32Oh yeah, one man said
01:33How is everything going here?
01:36Well, it's been a little bit busy, but it's nothing I can't handle
01:39Well, I could come back to work early if it's too much
01:42No, darling, no, there's no need to do that
01:44I have everything under control
01:45Thank you
01:46There you go
01:47Thanks
01:47Thanks
01:48How are things going down the studio?
01:51Yeah, mate, they're, uh, shrugging along nicely
01:54Come on, give me more than that
01:57You sure?
02:00Yeah, it's just rock stars I can't hang out with right now
02:02But you on the other hand
02:03Well, I, uh, saw the studio space finally, in person
02:09And it's, uh, it's epic
02:11Yeah
02:12I mean, it will be once we get the sound equipment
02:14It's from overseas
02:15Right
02:16Can't wait to see it all come together
02:18Hello, got your afternoon caffeine hit?
02:28She tracked them down
02:29She knew how against it I was, and she tracked them down
02:32Talking about Harper?
02:33Yes, I mean, who else?
02:34She's now enlisted cash to help her
02:36So we're just in a whole new level of hell
02:39Okay, what did she find out?
02:43My dad is dead
02:44I'm, I'm so sorry
02:49It's fine, it's really not that surprising
02:51It's a pretty big deal still
02:53I guess
02:54Okay
02:56Look, I told you how bad my parents were
02:59Yeah, but it's your dad
03:00Yeah, well, now Harper wants to contact our mum
03:03Which is insane
03:04Okay, baby, should we sit down?
03:05And what's more is that
03:06She thinks that I should have more perspective
03:08When it comes to mum
03:10Why does she think that?
03:11Because I had my own addiction issues
03:15Are you really okay with not being involved in Remy's record company?
03:31Yeah, I wouldn't be able to give it the energy that it needs, you know
03:35Yeah, yeah, I guess he would be demanding 150% commitment
03:40Yeah
03:40And he'd deserve it, but that's not really my priority at the moment
03:44Starting now, I've got my first session with the grief counsellor
03:49I didn't realise that was today
03:52Feeling a little bit nervous
03:54Oh, I'm sure you'll be fine
03:56Well, you can come if you want
03:58I'm sure the counsellor won't mind
04:00I told you, I'm not interested
04:02Well, that was a few days ago
04:03I thought you might have
04:04Nothing has changed
04:06If this is how you want to handle your feelings, it's fine
04:08It's just not for me
04:10Understood
04:12Understood
04:13I spent my whole life just trying to get away from my parents
04:23So, when I finally did escape, it was like there was all this stuff
04:30They just caught up with me
04:31I mean, what you went through was completely unfair
04:36But I should have known better than to turn to drugs to cope
04:41I think you should cut yourself some slack
04:43You didn't save me at my worst
04:46No, but how many people can say that they've turned their life around like you have?
04:52I don't think I even would have if it wasn't for Harper
04:54Harper helped you, sure
04:56But, you know, you recovered, not her
05:00This might be a bit of a silly question
05:06But are you worried you'll relapse with your mum around?
05:09No, no, honestly, it's nothing like that
05:12It's...
05:12Regardless of what her life looks like now
05:17I will never trust her around Archie
05:20Ever
05:22You'll never be ready for
05:30What's this?
05:41Yeah
05:42Yeah
06:03Yeah
06:07I'll never be ready for her
06:16Oh, we're closing. Sorry, you're going to have to come back tomorrow.
06:45Are you Lacey Miller?
06:46Who's asking?
06:47Peter Rolfe from Coastal News.
06:50Good for you.
06:51I just want to say how amazing you are, bringing down Craig Wendell the way you did.
06:55How do you know about that?
06:57I saw the police report. You're a hero.
06:59No, I'm not.
07:00I know a lot of our readers would disagree with that. I mean, Wendell was a piece of work.
07:03And you're the reason he's finally being brought to justice.
07:06I'd really love to do a profile piece on you.
07:08Am I interested?
07:10You've gone full stalk now.
07:11Great.
07:12Look, I really think you should reconsider.
07:13Back off.
07:14Craig Wendell was a monster.
07:15You've gone full stalk now.
07:21I thought you were doing a profile piece.
07:22Look, there are a few different angles.
07:23I thought you were doing a profile piece.
07:24No, it isn't a story.
07:25No, it isn't a story.
07:26No, it's a story.
07:27You could see what they wanted, even you could be a hero.
07:38You've gone full stalker now.
07:40Great.
07:41Look, I really think you should reconsider.
07:42Back off.
07:43Craig Wendell was a monster.
07:45Oi.
07:46You heard her?
07:47And there are some gaps in the case we could probably clear up to.
07:50I thought you were doing a profile piece.
07:51Look, there are a few different angles I could take on this story.
07:53No, no, it isn't a story.
07:55Theo wasn't a story.
07:56That's enough.
07:57No, of course not.
07:58He was your partner, right?
07:59The man you loved?
08:00Take a hint.
08:01Don't you think he deserves to be remembered as more than a victim?
08:02She told you to back off.
08:04You could do that for him.
08:04That is enough.
08:05You are not welcome here.
08:07Leave.
08:13And don't you ever come near me again.
08:20You okay?
08:21See, I sort of never understood why I ended up the way that I did.
08:30Because, like, Harper and I had this same experience.
08:33And she didn't go down that path.
08:35I mean, everyone deals with things differently, so...
08:37I know, but it's like, I don't know if I'd even be here if it wasn't for her.
08:42She's protected me her whole life.
08:43That's what she does.
08:45Right, which is what she'll do for Archie, right?
08:48I guess.
08:50From what you've told me, Harper has spent most of her life saving people from bad situations.
08:55So, if there's anyone that can handle it, it's her.
08:58Can you please get me another beer?
09:00Yeah, of course.
09:06Ooh, sad news.
09:07We're all out.
09:08Oh.
09:09Okay.
09:10Do you want to go to Salt?
09:11I feel like I owe you a dinner and a drink of talking your ear off all afternoon.
09:16Well, it sounds good.
09:17But, just to be clear, you haven't talked my ear off, and you can keep talking if you want.
09:22You know, some guys might have run a mile after all this.
09:27Ah, well, I'm not just some guy.
09:39Hello, Sergeant Langham.
09:41How can I help you?
09:42I'd like to talk to you about the arrest of Councillor Craig Wendell.
09:45And you are?
09:45Peter Rolfe from the Coastal News.
09:48Well, you know the drill.
09:49Email any questions you have to the police media.
09:52I'd rather hear from the arresting officer.
09:55I'll bet you would.
09:56Look, I'm not surprised you didn't hold a press conference, given your personal connection
10:00to both incidents.
10:02The conference was unnecessary.
10:04We got the guy.
10:04Yes, but there are some gaps in the police report I'd like to discuss.
10:08Just to clear things up.
10:09Well, it's not my job to clear things up for you.
10:11If you don't mind, I'm about to head home.
10:15Look, I'm giving you an opportunity here.
10:17And I'm asking you to leave.
10:18Hey.
10:36Hey.
10:37Hey.
10:38Whoa.
10:39You been busy?
10:40Oh, there was a spill in the fridge.
10:42And once I cleaned that up, I realised that the whole thing just needed a deep clean.
10:46Right.
10:47You know how long these things take.
10:49You want a hand?
10:50I'm okay.
10:51It's a good distraction.
10:54So, my session was good?
10:57That's good.
10:58You know how sometimes you get a bit worried about a counsellor, but I think this one's
11:02a good fit.
11:03I'm happy for you.
11:04She said, uh, you've got to remember Theo's life, not what happened to him.
11:13So, like, when I'm feeling low, I think about him, front and lyric, or our time surfing
11:20together, you know?
11:25Shall we go on a hand?
11:27Uh, no.
11:28I've got this.
11:31Right on.
11:31So, what do you think will happen if Harper does get in touch with your mum?
11:55I don't know.
11:56Like, if that does happen, I, I don't know how I would be around her.
12:02You know, you two have been through a lot together.
12:03Are you really going to let your mum tear you apart?
12:07I remember signing my statement.
12:11I just, I don't remember what was in it.
12:13Everything was in it.
12:14What's so wrong that a journalist can get a hold of that?
12:16I know, but to be fair, given Wendell's public profile, the case is of interest to the community.
12:23What did he say to you?
12:25Pretty much the same.
12:27He wanted to fill in any gaps in the police report.
12:30He was just trying it on because of my personal connection to the case.
12:34Father, husband.
12:35But how did he know that you were my dad?
12:37Why would that be in the report?
12:39It wasn't.
12:40So then how did he know?
12:42I don't know.
12:43It's a small town.
12:45Anyone could have told him.
12:47Who would do that?
12:50Someone trying to make our lives hell?
13:05Justin's only had the one session with a counsellor, but he definitely seems lighter.
13:11Well, it's good to hear.
13:13Yeah.
13:13He wanted me to go with him, but the thought of sitting down with a stranger and talking about Theo was not ready.
13:22Well, love, we all deal with this sort of stuff in different ways.
13:25I don't think I'm dealing with that at all.
13:29Justin did mention something the counsellor said to him that I've been thinking about all night.
13:34What's that?
13:35That he should focus on the positives in Theo's life, like his love of music, surfing.
13:43Hmm.
13:44That makes a lot of sense.
13:46Yeah.
13:46It just got me thinking about his guitar and the other things that are still at his place.
13:51Well, I thought you would have collected all that by now.
13:53Because Andrew was meant to do it when she was here, but we know how badly that turned out.
13:57So it looks like it's up to you.
14:00It's been avoiding going over there.
14:02I'm worried I'm going to bump into Lacey.
14:06Wow.
14:07Well, you still hates me.
14:12No, I don't think he hates me.
14:14It's me.
14:16Just try to ignore it.
14:18Well, it's easier said than done.
14:20You could come with me to Yabby Creek, pick up some supplies if you like.
14:24Count me in.
14:25All right.
14:26Let's talk.
14:27See you at home later.
14:29Next up.
14:30Next up.
14:37Hey.
14:42Come in.
14:45I wasn't expecting to see you.
14:48Yeah, I wasn't expecting to be back for a while.
14:53Um.
14:55I've realised that I don't think I'll ever understand why you want to see Mum again.
15:00That I have to be willing to move past that.
15:04That's great.
15:05I'm not done.
15:07You're an adult.
15:11It's your life.
15:13And you are entitled to do what you want.
15:17But I just can't give you my support on this.
15:20I love you.
15:22And you are the only sister that I have.
15:24So I have to respect that your needs are different to mine.
15:29Especially now that you have Archie.
15:31Okay.
15:35For what I need.
15:36Is that whatever you find out.
15:39I don't want to know.
15:41What?
15:42What if Mum's doing well?
15:45I cut them out of my life for a reason.
15:49And it hasn't changed.
15:51Okay.
15:51Okay.
15:52Well, thanks for making me.
16:01What's this about?
16:03Out of respect for our friendship.
16:05I need a favour.
16:07Go on.
16:07Can you ask Leah to tone down the hostility towards Lacey?
16:12Honestly, mate, I'm not sure I can.
16:20Lacey's really struggling.
16:22I know.
16:22Everyone is.
16:24But the attitude from Leah is not helping.
16:26You don't need to convince me.
16:27I'll get it.
16:28I have tried to talk her around.
16:33She's just not hearing any of it.
16:36Then answer me this.
16:38Have either of you been talking to any journalists?
16:42No.
16:42Why?
16:43Guy from the Coastal News approached Lacey and I yesterday,
16:46angling for a story.
16:48You think me and Leah had something to do with it?
16:50Well, did you?
16:52No, no, no.
16:54Trust me.
16:56We're not talking to any Janice.
17:17Hey, come on in.
17:22Thanks for letting me stop by at such short notice.
17:28Of course.
17:29You're the only one home?
17:31Yeah.
17:31And Lacey's not due back.
17:33I just prefer not to bump into her.
17:35Lacey's moved in with her dad.
17:37I didn't know that.
17:39Yeah, just too many memories here for her.
17:43Is that lyric?
17:46Yeah, sorry.
17:46I can turn it off.
17:47No, no, I just hadn't heard it for a while.
17:52I like hearing it.
17:54It's my way of remembering Theo.
17:57It's really nice.
17:59Although he'd probably insist to blast the volume right up and sing along.
18:04I bet he would.
18:05It always stops me feeling.
18:12It always stops me feeling.
18:14It always stops me feeling.
18:19Hey!
18:20Oh, hang on a sec.
18:42Peter Rolfe, in the Postal News.
18:44Whoa, whoa, whoa.
18:46Is this what you do?
18:47Is it just waltz into people's houses?
18:48Sorry, no, no.
18:49You just look like you had your hands full.
18:50What do you want?
18:51Well, I'm keen to do a story about the arrest of Councillor Craig Wendell.
18:56I've heard about you.
18:59Should have known you'd turn up here.
19:00If I could just ask you and your wife a few questions about Peter.
19:02You need to leave.
19:03About the fine young man that he was.
19:05On your bike, mate.
19:11Hello again, Sergeant.
19:12What was that you said about not talking to journos?
19:21It's not what it looks like.
19:23Then what is it?
19:24I think that's everything.
19:31Oh, the most.
19:32I remember what Justin said to Theo when he gave this to him.
19:47Oh, yeah?
19:48In this house, music is never a waste of time.
19:52Amen.
19:54Never a truer word spoken.
19:57You know, I fear he told me about how he came to live with you guys.
20:01About the stuff with his dad.
20:04He did?
20:05Yeah.
20:05He felt so lucky to have your support.
20:09No.
20:10I did.
20:12We were so lucky once.
20:15Not everyone has a place to land.
20:17But you gave Theo that.
20:20Gave him home.
20:23Sorry, I didn't mean to upset you.
20:26No, you haven't.
20:30It's a really, it's a really lovely thing to say.
20:33It's just, um, I miss him.
20:38I'm just missing.
20:48All right.
