00:00Closer each day
00:04Home and away
00:08I'm really worried about Macy.
00:10Me too. She's gonna need a space for a very long time.
00:13How did you keep living on every day after mum died?
00:16It's hard, but Theo would want you to live your life too.
00:20You've got a kid, you're serving a suspended sentence.
00:23Don't you think Joe deserves something simpler?
00:25I just need some time to think.
00:27About what?
00:28Can we just talk later, please?
00:29I got so up in my head about it all that I think I stuffed it.
00:32Miss Jo, she wants to meet up now.
00:34Well, now you have heard from her, mate. What are you doing here? Go meet her.
00:37Sorry about all the mixed messages.
00:38I just got this idea stuck in my head that I wasn't right for you.
00:41You know that's really dumb, right?
00:42I guess so, yeah.
00:43So what are you thinking? Do you want this or not?
00:46Are you sure about this?
00:52Oh, God.
00:55You need to ask for help, Marilyn. I'm gonna call Leah.
00:58No, do not ring Leah.
00:59The whole point is that I'm taking the load off her and not bothering her.
01:03I don't want her to think that I'm not coping.
01:05Oh, hey Lacey.
01:19Hey.
01:20Hey, how'd you go back at work? How's that all going?
01:22Yeah, it's been good. It's a useful distraction.
01:26Yeah, I'm sure Molly's glad to have you back.
01:28Yeah, he's been great.
01:30Oh, that's nice. Well, look, just make sure you're taking it easy as well. This stuff can take time.
01:35Yeah, you sound like my dad.
01:37Yeah, yeah, I bet I do.
01:40Well, I better get this inside.
01:42Okay, take it easy.
01:46Hey.
01:47Hey.
01:48It's good to see she's out and about.
01:50Yeah.
01:51It is.
01:52I'm glad I ran into you.
01:53I was thinking you and Eden should come round for dinner.
01:55Oh, yeah?
01:56Yeah.
01:57How's tonight?
01:58Um, I hope you don't mind though.
01:59I'll be flying solo because Eden's gonna be busy with her sister.
02:02Ah.
02:03Okay.
02:04Well, yeah, you, me and Tana then.
02:06Yeah, okay.
02:07Okay, cool.
02:08Come round seven-ish?
02:09Yep, sounds good.
02:22What?
02:25I can't believe you brought me to a motel and then forgot your credit card.
02:30I'm never gonna live that one down, am I?
02:32No, not if I can help it.
02:34Awesome.
02:35What was that with that receptionist?
02:39This is very last minute.
02:41Yeah.
02:43And surely he's dealt with last minute bookings before, right?
02:46Surely.
02:48Feeling like a daydream.
02:52Oh, yeah.
02:53Living for the good things.
02:56Lately feeling like a daydream.
03:01Daydream.
03:03Daydream.
03:04Daydream.
03:05Daydream.
03:10Hey, it's me.
03:13Hi, hi.
03:14Uh, are you okay?
03:15Yeah, yeah, I was just fixing my shoe.
03:17What are you doing here?
03:18I, um, I haven't done the rosters yet, if that's what you think.
03:21No, no, no, no, it's not about that.
03:22I just have no energy to cook, so I thought I'd just come in and put some dinner.
03:26Oh, well, I can help you with that.
03:27How about, um, just use the salad?
03:29Perfect.
03:30Great.

03:42No, you are, really.

09:11Oi, that was quick.
09:13Yeah, he must have been tired.
09:14He fell asleep the second I put him down.
09:16Oh, maybe his late night party days are over.
09:18Unlike his father, I can't believe I still haven't heard from Tana.
09:22Yeah.
09:24Hey, how's it going with your mum?
09:26Have you decided if you're going to get in contact?
09:29Um, I...
09:31I don't know.
09:32Yet, Dana reacted so badly to the whole thing.
09:36Although she gave me her blessing,
09:38she wants to be kept out of it.
09:40I guess that's understandable.
09:43I don't know if it's possible to keep her out of it though.
09:45Or if I even want to go ahead with it.
09:48Hmm.
09:49There was no rush, is there?
09:50No.
09:53Do you think that people really change?
09:56Honestly?
09:58Honestly, you and I have seen a lot of people make the same stupid decision over and over again.
10:02And you and I have also both seen people change.
10:06Hey.
10:07Sorry I'm late.
10:08Oi.
10:08Hey, I was worried about you.
10:09Is everything alright?
10:10Yeah, fine, fine.
10:11I just got caught up.
10:12Oh, sorry I missed dinner.
10:13No, it's alright.
10:14Archie's already down though.
10:15Oh, okay.
10:16Did something happen at the gym?
10:20You know what?
10:20I feel like I've taken up the entire night.
10:22How about I take the big fella out for a beer?
10:24Yeah, that's a good idea.
10:25Cash has had quite a day.
10:26Sure, sure, sure.
10:27Um, leave that.
10:28I'll do it when I get home, yeah?
10:29Great.
10:32Thanks for dinner, Harper.
10:33Thanks.
10:34See ya.
10:35How are you feeling?
10:36I feel good, yeah.
10:37It's really helping.
10:38Good, good.
10:39Do you need me to stick around?
10:40I can walk you home a little.
10:41No, no, I've got clothes.
10:42But thank you anyway.
10:43Okay.
10:44You need to look after yourself though.
10:45Especially when you're working on gals like this.
10:46Yeah, I know.
10:47I promise I will.
10:48Ah, now you're talking.
10:49What?
10:50Oh, you're taking a break for once.
10:51Yes, well, I'm about to get back to it.
10:53Well, tell me where you want me.
10:54I'm here to help you close up.
10:55Oh, now you're talking.
10:56What?
10:57Oh, you're taking a break for once.
10:58Yes, well, I'm about to get back to it.
10:59Well, tell me where you want me.
11:00I'm here to help you close up.
11:01I can do it.
11:02Yeah, I know you can do it, Marilyn.
11:03But this way we get it done twice as fast.
11:04Get you home.
11:05You need a good night's sleep.
11:06Yes, that sounds like a very good idea.
11:07Hang on a minute.
11:08What's going on here?
11:09Nothing.
11:10You're telling me nothing.
11:11That means there's something.
11:12Okay, look.
11:13I just fainted before.
11:14You're what?
11:15It's fine.
11:16I'm fine.
11:17And it was nothing.
11:18Is she?
11:19Yeah, she really is.
11:20It's fine.
11:21It's fine.
11:22It's fine.
11:23I'm fine.
11:24And it was nothing.
11:25Is she?
11:26Yeah, she really is.
11:27Does seem a lot better.
11:28But I was just telling her that she needs to take better care of herself.
11:30You know, we don't want this to happen again.
11:31Yeah, it was my fault.
11:32I just went too long without eating.
11:33It was silly, really.
11:34What?
11:35I'm happy for you.
11:37I'm happy.
11:38Oh, look.
11:39I'm just trying to figure out where the whole thing with her dad fits in.
11:40That's all.
11:41Yeah, Jo and I agreed to just keep it between us.
11:42Not tell anyone.
11:43Okay, so you're not going to even tell Jo what her dad said?
11:44No.
11:45No.
11:46She just doesn't want to rub it on Lacey's face right.
11:47Oh, okay.
11:48You're going to keep her quiet because of Lacey.
11:49That's the only reason.
11:50It's because of Lacey.
11:51That's all right.
11:52That's nice.
11:53It's very convenient for you though, isn't it, mate?
11:54She really is worried about her sister, okay?
11:55Yeah.
11:56Oh, okay.
11:57Oh, okay.
11:58I'm just trying to figure out where the whole thing with her dad fits in.
11:59That's all.
12:00Yeah, Jo and I agreed to just keep it between us.
12:01Not tell anyone.
12:02Okay, so you're not going to even tell Jo what her dad said?
12:03No.
12:04No.
12:05She's the only reason.
12:06It's because of Lacey.
12:07That's all right.
12:08That's nice.
12:09I love it all.
12:10It's very convenient for you though, isn't it, mate?
12:11She really is worried about her sister, okay?
12:12Yeah.
12:13Okay.
12:14All right.
12:15And mate, for the record, I am very happy for it.
12:19And you do deserve this.
12:21We're going to keep this between us, right?
12:23Yeah.
12:24Okay.
12:25That'll be your price.
12:26Price?
12:27Really?
12:28Yep.
12:29Another beer.
12:30Dang!
12:32Fine.
12:33Come on.
12:34Hey.
12:35Hey, where have you been?
12:36I thought you were going to be home.
12:37Is dad not here?
12:38He was meant to be with you.
12:39No, he got called into work.
12:54How long have you been here by yourself?
12:57A while.
12:58I left you a bunch of messages.
12:59Did you not receive any of them?
13:01No, my phone's on silent.
13:03So, where have you been?
13:06Um, just work.
13:08It was a full on day at the hospital.
13:10Are you not in your scrubs?
13:12Yeah.
13:13A patient got sick on me.
13:15Happens.
13:16Sorry.
13:17I'm sorry for being so an idiot.
13:19It's just...
13:20Oh, hey.
13:21It's the year's birthday tomorrow and it's kind of in a lot.
13:24I'm sorry.
13:25It's okay.
13:26Sorry you're going through this.
13:30Hey, it's getting late, but do you want to watch a movie or do you want to just go to bed?
13:36Mmm.
13:37Pretty tired.
13:38I might just crash.
13:40Okay.
13:41Well, I'm going to have a shower.
13:43I'll be right out.
13:46You're welcome.
13:47You're welcome.
13:49I'm here.
13:50You're welcome.
13:51Go, do you guys.
13:52Well, it's000.
13:53Mm-mm.
13:54Mm-mm.
13:55Mm-mm.
13:56What the flamminella are you doing here?
13:58Morning.
13:59What the flaming hell are you doing here?
14:15I'm wanting.
14:16Yeah, um, copies aren't going to make themselves.
14:20I told you last night you're taking the day off.
14:22Yes, and I woke up this morning and I felt fine.
14:25Yeah, until you keel over again.
14:27It was only because I didn't eat.
14:28I'm going to take my meal breaks today.
14:30That won't be necessary.
14:31I've already spoken to Leah and told her you need time off.
14:34Did you do that?
14:35Oh, she doesn't need to worry about me on top of everything else.
14:38Hi.
14:39You are here.
14:40Alf said you weren't coming in today.
14:41I'm so sorry.
14:42I think there's been a misunderstanding.
14:43No, the Flamin' Will hasn't.
14:45Okay, do you want to get your story straight?
14:47I'm a little confused.
14:47What's going on?
14:48Nothing's going on.
14:49I'm here to work and you can go home.
14:51I've got you covered.
14:52Okay?
14:56Wow, you have a lot of energy this morning.
14:57Oh my God, I don't know where it's coming from.
15:00Right, everyone, and rotate.
15:04Careful.
15:05Apparently I'm on fire this morning.
15:07Interesting.
15:08I would have thought you'd be too tired.
15:10All right, let's go.
15:19Oh, you can get hard of it, mate.
15:21Wait.
15:21What are you off to?
15:26Do they think they're not being obvious?
15:28I don't know what you're talking about.
15:32Yes, you do.
15:33Tell me what you know and I'll tell you what I know.
15:36All right, you go first.
15:38Start talking.
15:38Well, look.
15:41I'm glad that they finally got their rack together.
15:44So they are finally getting it off.
15:46Yeah.
15:47About time.
15:50Why didn't she just tell me?
15:52I think she was worried about you.
16:00Marilyn, are you sure you're okay on my head home?
16:02Yes, I'm fine.
16:03She worked so hard yesterday, she collapsed.
16:06What?
16:07Shush.
16:07Well, go on, Marilyn.
16:09Tell her you're passed out.
16:10Is that true?
16:11Look, I just had a funny turn, that's all.
16:13Doc, tell her she needs to go home and get some rest, eh?
16:16I am fine.
16:17Why didn't you say anything?
16:19Because she never does.
16:20She tries to do the right thing by everybody else,
16:22but today she needs to put herself first.
16:24Back me up on this, Doc.
16:26Yeah, I do think having a day off is going to do you the world of good.
16:28Thank you, but I am capable of making my own decisions.
16:32I'm going to take some supplies to the coffee cart.
16:34Oh, I can do that.
16:35Why don't we do it together?
16:37Okay.
16:47So, you slept with Tarnay.
16:52Why?
16:52What are you talking about?
16:53I know you were in a motel yesterday.
16:55Why didn't you tell me?
16:57Because I don't want to tell you about my love life
16:59when you've just lost your boyfriend.
17:01Jo, you're allowed to be happy.
17:03Just because I'm sad doesn't mean you have to be too.
17:05But I don't want to rub your nose in it.
17:08You're not.
17:10And you are happy, right?
17:14Yeah, I think so.
17:15Well, then this is good news.
17:17I could use a little bit of that right now.
17:20Hey, I'm happy for you.
17:23Really.
17:25Thanks.
17:26Oh.
17:30I wonder who that could be.
17:32Yeah, I'll call him later.
17:33No, call him now.
17:34I'm about to head out anyways.
17:36Don't you want some company?
17:37Today might be really hard for you.
17:39Oh, I'm okay.
17:42Trying to be.
17:45Call him.
17:46There you go.
17:59All right.
17:59All done.
18:00Now, I want you to go home.
18:02Oh, no, no.
18:03Look, everyone is blowing this out of proportion.
18:04Carolyn, you fainted.
18:07You know how bad I feel that you've been working so hard covering for me?
18:10Bea, I can have a rest tomorrow.
18:13I know it is Theo's birthday today, and you shouldn't have to work.
18:18The distraction's a good thing, I think.
18:20Trust me, I want to work.
18:22I think if I'm busy the day, we'll go faster.
18:27I'd already planned what I was going to cook for him for his birthday dinner,
18:31and he got back from Tasmania.
18:35I'm sorry.
18:38All right.
18:38I'm pulling rank.
18:40It's an order.
18:41Go home.
18:42All right, I'll go, but if you need anything, you just call me.
18:45I'll come straight back.
18:46You're a good friend, but today you need to look after yourself.
18:49Thanks.
18:50Bye.
18:54Hi.
18:55Hi.
19:07How bad are we at keeping secrets?
19:10Cash figured it out straight away.
19:14But don't worry.
19:15You won't tell anyone.
19:16Oh, now that Lacey knows I don't really care, he finds out.
19:21Maybe we should still keep it a secret.
19:25Why?
19:26Why?
19:26Don't tell me Harper's going to have a problem.
19:32Oh.
19:34Well, you told me you guys were chillaxes and you could do whatever you wanted.
19:38Yeah, I did say that.
19:40Okay, so what is it?
19:42It's actually your dad I'm worried about.
19:45Oh, don't worry about him.
19:47He'll be fine.
19:47I'll tell you for sure, he won't be.
19:50I'll tell you for sure, he won't be.
19:50Can I help you?
20:08I was kind of hoping we could maybe help each other.
20:12I know that today is a pretty hard day and I really wasn't looking forward to waking up this morning.
20:20At least you got to wake up.
20:22Theo wasn't so lucky, was he?
20:23No.
20:26I'm really sorry that he's not here.
20:29I just want to talk.
20:31About what?
20:32Theo.
20:33I thought maybe we could remember him together.
20:39Maybe light a candle.
20:40As if I would want to spend Theo's birthday with the reason that he's dead.
20:45Leia.
20:49Basic point.
20:50Let's go.
20:51You heard him.
20:52Stay away from me.
20:53You want to explain to me what's been going on?
21:06You tell me.
21:07I heard about Levi and it's not like you guys need any more stress right now.
21:10I lost the baby.
21:11You're the one who said you would tell everyone so this exact thing would not happen to me.
21:15You're right.
21:15I did say that.
21:16Yes, you did.
21:16I did say that, but I was trying to figure out if I still had a relationship or not.
21:19Oh, great.
21:20Again.
21:20Okay, so it's my fault again, is it?
21:22No, it's not.
21:22That's not what I'm saying.
21:23I lost a baby, Levi.
21:24So did I.
21:25No, you didn't.
21:25It's not the same thing.
21:26If the point of all this was to push me away, then well done.
21:29It worked.
21:30Where are you going?
21:31Away from you.
