00:00So there's nothing getting in the way, say, if you happened to meet someone you were really, really into?
00:15I guess not.
00:17Have you not noticed how much they've been hanging out recently?
00:19Yeah, I know that they're friends.
00:22Kind of a couple, are you?
00:23Peter Rolfe from Coastal News.
00:25Good for you.
00:26I just want to say how amazing you are, bringing down Craig Wendell the way you did.
00:30How do you know about that?
00:31It's a small town.
00:32Anyone could have told him.
00:33Who would do that?
00:35Someone trying to make our lives hell?
00:36You think me and Leah had something to do with it?
00:38Oh?
00:39Did you?
00:40No, no.
00:41We're not talking to any genies.
00:43Whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:44Is this what you do?
00:45Is it just waltz into people's houses?
00:46If I could just ask you and your wife a few questions about Theo.
00:48You need to leave.
00:49About the fine young man that he was.
00:51On your bike, mate.
00:53Hello again, Sergeant.
00:53What was that you said about not talking to journos?
00:57It's not what it looks like.
00:59I think that's everything.
01:00Theo felt so lucky to have your support.
01:03I miss him.
01:04I'm just...
01:05I miss you.
01:16I miss you.
01:17I miss you.
02:19It's kind of crazy as well.
02:20Oh, yeah.
02:22Must be strange being here without him.
02:26Yeah, it is.
02:28I've actually missed bin night the last two weeks because he wasn't here to remind me.
02:33Wow.
02:34I'm glad he got better with his chores once he left our place.
02:39He actually gave me some really sound advice, you know, when things were tough.
02:42Really?
02:42Like what?
02:44Loads of stuff.
02:45I mean, I don't actually think Dana and I would be together if it wasn't for him.
02:49It was a romantic, wasn't it?
02:51And he loved you and Justin.
02:54I mean, he wouldn't shut up about it, actually.
02:56You were saying that.
02:57No, no, I'm not.
02:58It's the truth.
02:59When he was offering for me to stay at your place, you should have heard him going on about how incredible his aunt and uncle were.
03:05It was...
03:06Oh, sorry.
03:12I need to go.
03:12No, no, no, no.
03:13No, absolutely fine.
03:14It's on silent.
03:15Continue.
03:16No, if I stay any longer, I'm going to have to stop hanging.
03:19Well, I'll send you an invoice.
03:21My fee is applied to back, lover.
03:23Done.
03:27I mean, are you sure you don't want help with any of this?
03:29No, I'll just get Justin to come by later with you.
03:34Are you sure you don't want to stay?
03:35I can make a totally mediocre coffee for you.
03:37Sonny, I'm fine.
03:39And, um, thank you.
03:40I promise you I would never say a word about Lacey.
03:55I just wouldn't do that.
03:56I wouldn't talk to the media about your family.
04:00More about Leah.
04:01We both know she's holding a grudge.
04:03She's hurting enough in private, mate.
04:05She's barely talking to me.
04:07There's no way she's going to talk to a journo and, you know, have the rest of the world.
04:10I'm piling on to her.
04:11All right, I'm sorry.
04:13I'm just trying to look out for my daughter.
04:16I get that.
04:18It's hard enough around here as it is.
04:21Hey, just packed up Theo's things.
04:25What's going on here?
04:26David just dropped by.
04:27I was just leaving.
04:29I'll leave you to it.
04:30That would be best.
04:37Hey, mate.
04:38How are you going?
04:40Well, I never thought I'd say this, but I'm counting down the days till Palmer gets back.
04:44I've had a gut full of these Flamin' Rosses.
04:46I'll tell them how much you've missed them.
04:48That's not what I said.
04:53Hey.
04:54Hey.
04:54Haven't seen you in a few days.
04:56Really?
04:56I hadn't noticed.
04:58Yeah, it seems like you're making a habit of the disappearing acts.
05:00Yeah, I dropped off the last couple of days.
05:02Sorry.
05:02Just a lot happening.
05:04That's all good.
05:04I figured you'd be busy with your family.
05:06Didn't want to push.
05:07I appreciate that.
05:08Look, I have some time today.
05:10No work, no lacy duties.
05:12What about you?
05:13I've got back-to-back boot camps starting soon.
05:16Really?
05:17But I could get another trainer to take them if I had a better offer.
05:22That's really convenient, because I was actually going to offer you the opportunity to go on a third date with me.
05:27Huh.
05:28Mm-hmm.
05:28But it sounds like you'd rather yell at lazy boot camp or something, which is fine.
05:32I can finish up in a sec.
05:33Great.
05:34You got anything I might?
05:35I do.
05:36I'm going to go home and shower.
05:38Message me when you're done.
05:39Looking forward to it.
05:40You too.
05:40Send over the charges once you've got them finalised.
05:48Righto.
05:50Yes, constable.
05:53What's this?
05:54They're suspended sentences and probation orders for annual check-in.
05:57Can't you handle them?
05:59I just thought that you might want to give them a quick once-over since it's your first round at the station.
06:03The magistrate sent them through this morning.
06:04It shouldn't take me long.
06:06Don't think that this is going to get you out of patrol you do out in five?
06:09Yes, Sarge.
06:10I'll take care of this one.
06:17Can you deal with the rest?
06:19Thanks.
06:33David.
06:34Hey.
06:35Glad I caught you.
06:36You busy?
06:36Yeah, I'm just about to head out.
06:38Oh, that'll have to wait.
06:40We need to talk.
06:42Well, I'm sorry, mate, but I really don't have the time right now.
06:44Well, you'll have to make the time.
06:45Dude, sign looks so good.
07:10Starting to think you weren't going to show up?
07:12Yeah, that's what this is for.
07:13Sorry, man.
07:13Apology accepted.
07:15Right, painting's done.
07:16Let's clean this place up.
07:18Haven't I done enough?
07:19Oh, come on, mate.
07:19We'll start with the tarps in there.
07:21Mate, can't we just pay someone to do that?
07:22No, mate.
07:23Are you seriously trying to skimp out after turning up lace?
07:26Sorry, I just don't know if I have the energy today.
07:29Leah swung by to grab Theo's stuff.
07:32How is she?
07:34Honestly, not great.
07:36Understandably, she's hurting, you know?
07:38Yeah.
07:39Yeah, we all are.
07:40It's too hard to believe Theo's not going to be a part of this.
07:46Hmm.
07:54This is the last of it.
07:59Are we going to talk, or is this silent treatment scheduled for the rest of the day?
08:02I'm not talking until you can guarantee that that won't happen again.
08:06This is my home too, and David isn't welcome.
08:11Understood.
08:14Got to say, it was really hard turning up to Theo's place.
08:17I can't imagine what it was like packing up his stuff.
08:20It helped having Sonny there.
08:24Um, I guess we just pack up all these things and we can decide what we do with it all.
08:31I'm sure Cassandra will want most of it.
08:33Should we call her?
08:34I doubt she'd even pick up the phone to me at this point.
08:38So we wait until things cool down?
08:40If they cool down.
08:45What about his guitar?
08:51Should we keep it?
08:54You did give it to him.
08:55Mm-hmm.
08:56I don't think Cassandra would mind.
08:59Sonny.
08:59What does he want?
09:00No, he just wants me to come and check out the studio.
09:03I'll tell him I'm busy.
09:04Well, maybe you should go.
09:06No, no, no.
09:06That's not my priority right now.
09:08You sacrificed enough walking away from the label.
09:11Just go and check it out.
09:12Really?
09:13Mm.
09:14Yeah.
09:14I'll be fine.
09:15I've got plenty of stuff to get on with.
09:17All right.
09:28You know, last year the police officer just called me to do the chicken.
09:31I wasn't the sergeant last year.
09:34You're doing all your chickens like this?
09:35No, just yours.
09:38I was surprised when this came across my desk.
09:42Kidnapping is a serious conviction.
09:45I imagine it's something you'd want to keep quiet.
09:47Am I right?
09:49I've got nothing to hide.
09:51Right.
09:52Does Jo know about this?
09:56What does she have to do with this?
09:57Nothing.
09:58I'm just curious.
10:00Does she?
10:01Look, I've got somewhere I need to be, so let's just get this over with.
10:06No, I haven't changed address.
10:08Yes, I've stayed within the area.
10:09I've got permission to leave the country once in the last 12 months.
10:12And no, I haven't left the state since.
10:15Good to see you know the drill.
10:17So we're done here?
10:20Yeah, we're done.
10:21So it's usually a junior officer that doesn't check on us.
10:33Yeah, that's what I thought.
10:36No, no reason.
10:39Hey, listen, I'd better go.
10:40But I'll catch you later, yeah?
10:43Who's that?
10:44Oh, it was Cass.
10:45I was catching up.
10:47That didn't look serious.
10:48No, no, it wasn't.
10:49Is that for us?
10:51Yeah.
10:52Thought we could have lunch out here.
10:53Picnic, eh?
10:54Yeah.
10:55It's my favourite spot.
10:56Now I have someone to share it with.
10:58I realise that kind of makes me sound like a bit of a loser,
11:01but I stand by it, so all the picnics are the best.
11:03Yeah, sounds great.
11:04Burgers, alright?
11:05Love burgers.
11:07Let's eat.
11:13Alright, it's time for a break.
11:15Alright, we've been out of ten minutes.
11:16Ten very long minutes.
11:18Hello.
11:19Hey, welcome.
11:21Hey.
11:21Hi, good to see you.
11:23The photos do not do this place justice.
11:25Hey, wait until you see the rest of it.
11:27Go on then, give them the tour.
11:28Well, okay, this is the foyer, obviously, reception desk here.
11:32We're going to put the recording studios upstairs.
11:34Got a meeting room in here.
11:37And then down here we've got the breakout room.
11:39Next to it, this beautiful courtyard out here.
11:42Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo.
11:43Huh.
11:44Huh.
11:45What have we got here?
11:48You've been living here.
11:49Uh, maybe.
11:49That's what dedication looks like, my friend.
11:51He's been eating, sleeping, breathing music.
11:54Sorry about him.
11:55Look, we know you can't really get involved.
11:57We're not trying to rope you in right now.
11:58Oh, don't apologise, mate.
11:59If things were different, I'd be charging head-on into this.
12:04That's not why I invited you.
12:05It's not?
12:08Remy was saying that he can't shake the feeling that Theo should have been a part of this.
12:12Right.
12:12I mean, he'd never tell you that, but it's true.
12:15Look, I'm not the most spiritual guy, but I've been thinking about the impact that Theo's had on us all.
12:22And I just wondered if there's a way that he could live on through the studio.
12:27So, who better to help us dream up a way to honour him?
12:31It doesn't have to be big or showy, but something to commemorate him.
12:38Any ideas?
12:47So, is this worth teaching work for?
12:49Yeah.
12:51And by this, you mean me or the burger?
12:54Huh?
12:54Oh, right.
12:56Definitely the burger.
12:58Yeah, I can totally relate.
13:01Maybe a bit of both.
13:02Don't enjoy it too much.
13:04Why not?
13:04Every time we hang out, it gets derailed, so I'm just waiting for disaster to occur at any second.
13:09Well, at least it keeps things interesting.
13:13Well, I'm definitely not bored.
13:14Okay, you definitely have something on your mind.
13:23I'm just saying, there's no pressure to share.
13:26Can't get anything past you.
13:29So stop trying to.
13:30I saw your dad earlier.
13:36Oh, what's he done now?
13:37Now he's just checking in about something.
13:41Like what?
13:44Alright.
13:46I need to be honest with you.
13:48Okay, you're really starting to freak me out.
13:50I have a criminal record.
13:52I'm currently serving a suspended sentence.
13:58Kidnapping.
14:00It was a very specific set of circumstances and it's a long time ago now.
14:05Well, you better start explaining.
14:15Yeah, the place is going to look great.
14:17Yeah, well, he's barely slept nerding out on interior designs.
14:20I just want to make sure it's an artist's haven.
14:23You know, somewhere where you can hang out with your mates and jam all day.
14:27Theo's dream place, basically.
14:29Exactly.
14:30I know you were a big influence on Theo musically.
14:33Yeah, but that went both ways.
14:35It's like, I don't think I'd be managing bands if it wasn't for him.
14:38Yeah, well, thank God he talked you into it.
14:42Lads, listen.
14:43I think it is a great idea to honour him.
14:48It's just right now, you know.
14:52I've got nothing in the tank.
14:54I mean, we can come up with something together.
14:58I trust you.
14:59You'll figure it out.
15:02You leaving?
15:03Yeah, I don't want to leave Leah on her own for too long, you know.
15:06It's all good, mate.
15:07We understand.
15:09Later, boys.
15:09See you, man.
15:10See you.
15:10It didn't go as well as I hoped it would.
15:14Mate, you try.
15:16We'll pick it up when everyone's ready.
15:17Hey.
15:25Hey.
15:26How's the studio?
15:28Incredible.
15:32Sonny wants us to think of a way to commemorate the...
15:35It's a nice idea.
15:37Looks like you've been busy.
15:41Yeah, I'm all done.
15:46Why don't I put them in one of the spare rooms until we know what we want to do with them?
15:51Yeah, thanks.
15:52I do think you should keep that, though.
15:55I didn't have it in me to help those fellas think of something.
16:20It still feels really raw.
16:28I'm sure they don't understand.
16:29You know, Sonny said that Theo always mentioned how grateful he was to have us in his life.
16:41I thought he only used to talk about chicks and cars.
16:45It just got me thinking about how good you were to him.
16:49He really looked up to you.
16:53Giving him that guitar.
16:55I don't think you'll ever know how much that meant to him.
16:58I just felt like I had to give her a good life and a stable home.
17:12Big call to take her, though.
17:14Yeah.
17:15I just don't want to leave things to chance, you know?
17:16She's just a baby.
17:19It's kind of hard trying to explain to people without them jumping to conclusions, so...
17:23I try to avoid it.
17:24Yeah, look, it doesn't sound great, I'll be honest.
17:30Yeah.
17:31Yeah, and I get that, you know?
17:34And I don't understand if this was a bit of a deal breaker.
17:38I'd be lying if I didn't say that, on paper, yeah, it's just a red flag.
17:46Sure.
17:48But you obviously did what you did because you cared, right?
17:52You cared so much you were willing to risk everything.
18:03What?
18:04For, I don't know, just...
18:06getting me, I guess.
18:08You've gone above and beyond to try and understand me and what I've been going through.
18:13It's something hard to do.
18:15That means a lot.
18:15Oh, that's the one.
18:21Oh.
18:26Here we go.
18:41You're still so good at this.
18:43Well, you know, I almost turned professional after beating a Aussie champ at a pub in Kalgoorlie.
18:47See if you've ever been to Kalgoorlie.
18:49I've been everywhere, man.
18:54Tell me you got some pizzas out there.
18:56Uh, sorry, it's me and Leah.
18:59Oh, uh, come in.
19:04Did you know they were coming?
19:05Nope.
19:06Do we have any food?
19:07Nope.
19:08No food.
19:09No, we don't, but we've got a bar full of drinks.
19:10Drinks it is.
19:14Babe.
19:15The place is great.
19:16Oh, thank you.
19:17We'll get you more there.
19:18Drink.
19:19Why not?
19:20Babe, don't keep you away.
19:22I had an idea.
19:29Theo's guitar.
19:30We want to offer it to the studio.
19:32As a tribute to Theo.
19:35He'd be really proud of what you're doing.
19:38I don't know what to say.
19:41Huh.
19:42You sure?
19:44Yes.
19:45And I think this is what Theo would have wanted.
19:51Cheers.
19:52First drink on me.
19:53I just need a chicken at the gym, but I'll meet you up there.
20:05Okay.
20:06I'll go to the table.
20:07Do you have a nice time with my daughter?
20:08What, he's spying on us?
20:09I thought you had nothing to hide.
20:10Well, I told her the whole story.
20:11Just go with it.
20:12Look, I don't hate you.
20:13I don't hate you, Tony.
20:14But you have to admit, you're complicated.
20:15You've got a kid.
20:16You're serving a suspended sentence.
20:17Any more trouble, you could be off to prison.
20:18Gee, thanks for the reminder.
20:19Joe is fragile.
20:20She's had a rough couple of years.
20:21She's barely out the other side.
20:22Yeah, I know that.
20:23It's just the least one.
20:24It's just a matter of fact.
20:25I mean, if you like she's a miserable man, it's a bad man.
20:28Don't be angry.
20:29Yeah, Tarnia, but you have to admit you're complicated.
20:33You've got a kid, you're serving a suspended sentence.
20:36Any more trouble, you could be off to prison.
20:38Gee, thanks for the reminder.
20:42Jo is fragile.
20:44She's had a rough couple of years.
20:46She's barely out the other side.
20:48Yeah, I know that.
20:49Just be honest with yourself.
20:52Don't you think Jo deserves something simpler than this?
20:59Mackenzie, this is ridiculous.
21:06I keep leaving you voicemails and you won't call me back.
21:09Seriously, how are we ever meant to get through this
21:11if you won't even talk to me?
21:12Are you sure that you're okay to work today?
21:14Never better.
21:15You deserved it.
21:16It's a fast lane.
21:17You're meant to speed up, not slow down.
21:18Hey, shut up and let this doctor look at you.
21:20Levi.
21:22For the last time, get back into your bed.
21:24Call the police.
21:24Seriously, get out of my way.
21:25Get out!
21:26What?
21:29What the hell was that?
