00:00Closer each day
00:03I'm in no way
00:06No way.
00:09Last person I was expecting to run into.
00:11It's been a long time.
00:12Sure has.
00:13Is there anyone special in their life?
00:15Not that I'm aware of.
00:16Eddie was my world for a long time.
00:19Just need to see if there's still something there.
00:21I've been invited to apply for a position at Doctors Without Borders.
00:25Seriously, great. That's great news.
00:27You thought that there was going to be a shot for you two down the track.
00:30Which is never going to happen.
00:32I know I have no right asking you to stay.
00:33No, you don't. We haven't been together for months.
00:36It doesn't change the fact that you have a love of my life.
00:39I've always thought that there was still a chance for us.
00:41I need to make this decision for me.
00:43Go on, aren't you?
00:45Yeah.
00:47We should do the gig tonight.
00:49I think Eddie needs a little more time than Matt.
00:51You've got all afternoon to prepare. You've got me, right?
00:53Maybe.
00:54Yeah? Alright, I'm going to call Matt.
00:55Let's do it.
00:57Hey.
01:09Hey.
01:11How was work?
01:13Ah, busy.
01:14Oh.
01:15What are you looking at?
01:17Oh, nothing.
01:19Just forget how peaceful this place is sometimes, you know?
01:22Yeah, me too.
01:23Everything okay?
01:30No, it's just Remy. I agreed to meet with him at Salt this afternoon.
01:33He's been really insistent about it.
01:35You sure you can't hang out just a little bit longer?
01:40Maybe, Remy can wait.
01:43Oh, come on.
01:45Can't they all just leave us alone?
01:46It's Remy.
01:49No.
01:49I'm going to take it.
01:51Okay, well, how about you and I meet at Salt Timbin?
01:54Hmm.
01:55Your Honor.
01:56Hmm.
01:56You're always nervous before a gig.
02:00It's never stopped you from killing it before.
02:02At least I know I always had one fan in the audience.
02:05Yeah, your mum usually does go to your shows.
02:06She's good like that.
02:07But when she's not there, I am your biggest fan.
02:12Take away from time.
02:18Cheers.
02:21Friend of yours?
02:24Uh, no.
02:26Yeah, he's my personal trainer.
02:28You have a personal trainer now?
02:30Yeah.
02:31Yeah, I just started going to boot camp and stuff.
02:33It was just helping me cope emotionally.
02:36The exercise, endorphins, all that.
02:39Cool.
02:40You must be pretty good then.
02:41Yeah, he's great.
02:43Glad you found a healthy outlet.
02:45Mm-hmm.
02:49When I first spoke to Councillor Wendell,
02:52he denied having any part in my wife's death.
02:58He showed no guilt.
03:01No remorse.
03:03No responsibility.
03:06That man did not learn from his mistakes.
03:10He repeated them.
03:12And went on to destroy another family.
03:18Which is why I hope the court
03:19delivers the maximum sentence possible.
03:26Hey, can I get you guys anything else?
03:28Uh, no, we're all good, thanks.
03:30Actually, when did Mac get in?
03:31Um, she...
03:32Mac, hi.
03:33Hi.
03:35Remy, um, I got your a million messages.
03:37What's going on?
03:38Firstly, let me introduce the first artist signed
03:40back on track records, Eddie Shepard.
03:42Oh, hi.
03:44You must be pretty special if this guy's taking you on board.
03:46I don't know about that, but hey, really appreciate you giving me the chance to play tonight.
03:51Play?
03:52As in here.
03:54Tonight.
03:54Well, Remy, I didn't realise we were hosting any gigs at the moment.
03:58Well, this is what I want to talk about.
03:59Mm-hmm.
04:00I need to get Eddie in front of a crowd,
04:01and I know that you have always been supportive of emerging artists.
04:04I absolutely am, with more notice.
04:07Come on, Sonny's on his way now with the equipment from the studio.
04:10This isn't about plugging in an amp, Remy.
04:12I've got a roster on extra staff, cater enough food.
04:14It's a bar.
04:15As long as there's beer, who cares?
04:16I do, I care.
04:18Come on.
04:19They'll bring in the crowds.
04:20Which is more money in your back pocket.
04:21Yes, and if those crowds leave here disappointed with service,
04:23that's bad for my business.
04:25Eddie, I'm really sorry.
04:26I would love to have you play here.
04:27It just, it won't happen tonight.
04:29Next time I need more than an hour's notice, okay?
04:31Okay.
04:42I think I might head back to Salt again after dinner.
04:45Why, sir?
04:46Eddie's playing a gig tonight.
04:48Is he now?
04:50Yes, and I just thought it would be fun to see him play again, that's all.
04:54You can come with me if you want.
04:56Ah, it's all right.
04:58Thanks, though.
05:01Oh.
05:03Well, scratch that.
05:05The gig's been cancelled.
05:07Well, Eddie, he was really excited.
05:09I wonder what happened.
05:10Maybe we should ask him to breakfast tomorrow at Salt, cheer him up.
05:15Or is that crossing the line?
05:16No.
05:17I think it's a nice idea.
05:18I'll give him a call.
05:20Since when are we having breakfast tomorrow?
05:23Can't a father want to spend time with his daughters?
05:28Hey.
05:29Cash, hi.
05:31I'll leave you guys to it.
05:36Newman.
05:36Hey, Sarge.
05:37You need to grab the camera equipment and take it back to the station?
05:40It's all there.
05:40Yeah.
05:43So, how'd you go with the statement?
05:47Lacey, Leah, Joe and myself all did one.
05:51Oh.
05:52Mustn't have been easy.
05:53No, it wasn't.
05:55But it's done now.
05:56Yeah.
05:57It will help.
06:00Yeah.
06:00Yeah.
06:00Let's hope it's enough to convince a magistrate to lock Wendell up for the rest of his life.
06:09See you at work.
06:10See you there.
06:11Mate, I'm sorry for getting your hopes up.
06:25Told you it's fine.
06:27A bit more lead time will be good.
06:29Yeah, you're right.
06:30Well, I guess it's my shout then.
06:31Actually, I might make a move for the night.
06:34Well, you don't want to stay for another round?
06:34Nah, I'm keen for an early one.
06:36Well done.
06:36See you soon, mate.
06:39It's just one gig.
06:41Yeah, the first gig I ever organised for him and I fall flat on my face.
06:45How's the guy supposed to have any faith in me?
06:46Yeah, I mean, it's kind of short notice.
06:49Yes, I'm well aware of that.
06:51Hey.
06:52How does next week sound?
06:54Really?
06:55Yes.
06:56Let's lock it in.
06:57Let's do it properly.
06:58Okay, great.
06:59Okay.
07:00Cheers.
07:01Everything works out.
07:02Hey, you came.
07:04Yeah, that's promised.
07:04So, how did things go with Brie?
07:06Good.
07:07Really good.
07:08Actually, she had some news.
07:10She got a job with Doctors Without Borders.
07:12Wow, that's amazing.
07:13Yeah, she's been wanting to do it ever since I met her.
07:17You knew about this, didn't you?
07:18Yeah.
07:19Oh.
07:19Whoa.
07:25Breakfast with the family.
07:26It's been a while.
07:28Is David paying?
07:31Of course I'll come.
07:32It sounds nice.
07:33I'll see you then.
07:34G'day, mate.
07:40Hey.
07:40I'm Eddie.
07:42What's happening?
07:43Sorry for the random intro.
07:44I'm friends with Joe.
07:45She told me all about you.
07:47Really?
07:48Yeah.
07:49Don't worry, only good things.
07:52Like what?
07:53Just that you've been really helping her out.
07:55Putting her through her paces.
07:57She said that?
07:59Apparently you're a great trainer.
08:00Which must be true, because the Joe I used to know wouldn't have been caught dead in a gym.
08:04Right.
08:05Yeah.
08:06Just doing my job.
08:08Looks like I'm going to be in town a little more often, so I might swim by myself if that's
08:12cool.
08:13We look forward to having you.
08:15Great.
08:15Well, have a good night.
08:17That's it.
08:17That's it.
08:17Hey.
08:31Hey.
08:31You finished already?
08:33Yep.
08:34Yeah?
08:34Has something happened?
08:36Uh, no.
08:37Nope.
08:38Well, I mean, there is some news.
08:40Bree's leaving town.
08:42Oh, what?
08:42Why?
08:42Yeah, she's, um, she's getting a job with Doctors Without Borders.
08:47That's great.
08:48Yeah.
08:49Another person moving on to bigger and better things.
08:51Woo!
08:52Hey, come on.
08:53Could at least be happy for her.
08:54I am.
08:55I am.
08:55Of course I am.
08:56It's, it's huge.
08:59Does Remy know?
09:00Mm-hmm.
09:01How did he take it?
09:03You might need to ask him yourself.
09:05He didn't say.
09:06Things are weird between the two of us.
09:08I just, I don't know where I stand with him.
09:11Well, I know he didn't want you to be part of his record label, but he's, he's still your best mate.
09:16Is he?
09:19Bree leaving's going to hit him really hard.
09:22What do you reckon a friend would do right now?
09:29Hey.
09:31What you doing out here?
09:33Just enjoying how peaceful it is.
09:35Oh.
09:37I'm waiting to you.
09:41Brandy?
09:41Brandy.
09:43What are you, a hundred years off?
09:45It's the good stuff.
09:46You want to try it?
09:48I just figured with the IVF off the table, you know, maybe...
09:53No, you're right.
09:53You're right.
09:55We can have one gloves.
09:56Yeah.
09:56Yeah.
09:56Yeah.
09:56Yeah.
09:56Yeah.
09:56Yeah.
09:56Yeah.
09:57Yeah.
09:57Yeah.
09:57Yeah.
09:57Yeah.
09:58Yeah.
09:58Yeah.
09:58Yeah.
09:59Yeah.
09:59Yeah.
09:59Yeah.
09:59Yeah.
10:00Yeah.
10:00Yeah.
10:01Yeah.
10:01Yeah.
10:01Yeah.
10:02Yeah.
10:06Oof.
10:07That is smooth.
10:08See what I'm saying?
10:09Mm-hmm.
10:09Mm-hmm.
10:10This is nice.
10:19Yeah.
10:21Yeah.
10:21You know, I do feel like I've had enough serenity for one day, though.
10:26Really?
10:27Mm-hmm.
10:27Mm-hmm.
10:28Mm-hmm.
10:29Let's continue this discussion inside, Ben.
10:31Shall we?
10:32I don't plan on talking.
10:33Don't be overthinking.
10:34I'm not going anywhere.
10:35I'm wrapped around your finger and I'm not ready to share.
10:38Oh, go.
10:39Go.
10:40Go, guys!
10:41Go.
10:42Go, guys!
10:44I'm not going anywhere. I'm wrapped around your finger, and I'm not ready to share.
11:07Good! Let's go, guys! Pick it up! Pick it up! Let's work! Let's work! Hard and fast! Let's go!
11:14And rotate! Let's go!
11:17Not going easy on us today, are you?
11:19Yeah, I guess not. You ready? Let's go.
11:28You alright?
11:30Yeah, fine. Fine. Come on. Keep it up. Let's go.
11:32You're being weird. Is this about us?
11:35Sorry if I'm not handling this well. I just thought we could still be friends while we're on pause.
11:40On pause? Is that what we are? Really?
11:43Yeah, that's what we talked about.
11:44But I'm just your trainer. You're just my clients. That's all you told your ex, right?
11:51Alright, rotate! Let's go, guys! Rotate! Let's move it!
11:55Good work! Pick it up!
11:58Good! Let's go, people! Hard and fast!
12:01Good!
12:07Hey! I was just about to put some food on and thought we could have breakfast out here instead.
12:12Unless you've got somewhere else you have to be.
12:14I got called into work.
12:16No!
12:17Yeah.
12:18At risk of being a total hypocrite, just stay here and don't go.
12:23I wish I could, but it's an urgent consult that I need before, so why don't you go out, make a day of it, maybe go for a surf?
12:29It's tempting, but I prefer it when you're there to watch me.
12:32Yeah, sort of why. Let's make a day of it soon.
12:35Okay. Can't wait.
12:37Right now, I do need to leave.
12:39Hey, um...
12:41We made the right decision putting off IVF for now.
12:45Yeah. This feels right.
12:46It does.
12:48I love you.
12:49I love you.
12:53Bye.
13:00I'll talk to him later.
13:01Oh, you could talk to him now.
13:04Are you seriously just gonna abandon me?
13:06Good luck.
13:16Hey!
13:19How are you?
13:21Yeah, I'm fine.
13:22Just thinking about how we promote Eddie's gig next week.
13:25Look...
13:27Let's... let's not talk about work.
13:28I'll... I'll call in sick, we can go to the city, watch some live music, talk things through...
13:32I don't wanna talk.
13:35Bree's leaving.
13:37And know that you're hurting.
13:38Yeah, and talking about it isn't gonna change any.
13:41Believe me, I've tried.
13:42What does that mean?
13:44Means I showed up on her doorstep, I begged her to stay, and she's still going.
13:49Did you really think that that would work?
13:51Yeah, right, tell me I'm an idiot for even trying.
13:53No, I wasn't having a go. I wasn't.
13:54Sure.
13:55No, come on, Rem, I wouldn't.
13:58I am the person that you hashed this stuff out with, have been since we were 15.
14:02Yeah, but we're not 15 anymore, Eden.
14:05And unlike some people, I have better things to do with my time than talk.
14:09Excuse me?
14:10I'm just saying, we all have to grow up at some point.
14:13And that is why we moved here.
14:32Look, it'll do.
14:33So, Lacey's working at a board shop.
14:38Yeah.
14:39It's cool.
14:40Kind of random.
14:42Does she surf these days?
14:43No.
14:44But she likes the job, I think.
14:46She must if she's bailing on us.
14:49Do you remember the first breakfast you had with the family?
14:53You'd slipped over.
14:54I was trying to sneak out when Christina busted me.
14:57I've seen some interrogations in my day, but hers topped a lot.
15:01Hey, what are we talking about?
15:03Your mother torturing poor Eddie.
15:06Yeah, she loved messing with you.
15:07She just knew how scared I was of your dad.
15:10I was terrified of you.
15:11That's the way I liked it back then.
15:14So, good workout?
15:16I mentioned you had boot camp.
15:18Oh, right.
15:20Yeah.
15:21It was great.
15:22Actually, I ran into your personal trainer last night.
15:25Seems like a nice block.
15:26Yeah.
15:27He had something similar to say about you.
15:34Right.
15:35Well, what do you want from Ricky?
15:37Give me two minutes.
15:44What are you getting?
15:45Uh, the bacon and egg brioche is pretty good.
15:47Oh, yeah?
15:57Thanks.
15:58Hey, you.
15:59Hey.
16:00Uh, can I get a flat white?
16:02Yeah, thanks.
16:09Working hard?
16:10Yep.
16:13What do you need, something?
16:15Not really.
16:16Just seeing how you're holding up.
16:18I know Brie leaving can't be easy.
16:19I'm fine.
16:20Mate, she's got to do what she's got to do.
16:22If it makes you feel any better, what she's doing is pretty amazing.
16:27It's a great opportunity.
16:28Yeah, I know.
16:29I know.
16:30It's all very noble and it's good for the world.
16:33I need to find something quieter to work.
16:41Poke the bear, huh?
16:43I guess so.
16:45He, uh, bit my head off earlier too.
16:47Said he's too busy with his career to hang out with a slacker like me.
16:50Ignore him.
16:51You're doing great.
16:53Am I?
16:55You just got married.
16:56Ah, yes.
16:57That's right.
16:58I'm a, I'm a wife.
17:01It's, it's nice, but it's hardly my purpose in life, is it?
17:13Give me the baby.
17:14Give me the baby.
17:16What is this?
17:18There you go.
17:19Bachi bachi, my baby.
17:21I missed you.
17:23I missed you.
17:25Okay, so why do I owe the visit?
17:28I need your opinion on something.
17:30It's about Jo.
17:31Ooh, go on.
17:33Her ex, Eddie, went down.
17:37Oh, the musician Remy signed.
17:39That's the one.
17:41Oh, he's really nice.
17:43Oh, okay, so what?
17:44So it's been a bit awkward?
17:46I mean, that's normal given the circumstances.
17:49I just saw him having breakfast with Jo and her dad.
17:54That's very friendly.
17:56Yeah, it looked very friendly.
17:58Well, you should have put yourself out there when you had the chance, like I told you.
18:02Well, that's the thing.
18:03I did.
18:05Stop.
18:07Did something happen between you and Jo?
18:10Okay, well, clearly, we've got a lot to catch up on.
18:14Follow me, please.
18:16What has Daddy done?
18:19What has he done?
18:27Oh, thank you.
18:33How's your shift going?
18:35Yeah, fine.
18:36Yeah, help yourself.
18:37I'm gonna take you to chat with Remy. It didn't go well.
18:40You could say that.
18:41I tried to be there for him as a friend.
18:43And?
18:45And he told me that I need to grow up.
18:48Really?
18:50Yep, not only am I excluded from his new business, I've also been excluded from my best friend's personal life.
18:55Hey, I think he's just upset about Bree. He doesn't mean it.
18:59It doesn't matter if he means it or not. He's right.
19:02Come on.
19:03No, seriously. I mean, he's off making hit records, Bree's saving children overseas, and I'm here doing nothing with my life.
19:11I feel like we've had this conversation before.
19:13Yeah, babe, exactly.
19:15And I'm still in the same place doing the same thing. Nothing is going right for me. I'm just a wife.
19:22You're more than them, babe.
19:24No, babe, I'm not.
19:26I have nothing to work towards. No future to look forward to. It's just, it's empty. It's a, it's a void.
19:37Here. It's yours.
19:40What? Where are you going?
19:42Anywhere but here.
19:43Wow! Secret hotel visits you all.
19:49Tony, this is very scandalous.
19:51Remind me again, where did you and Levi used to hook up?
19:53Oh, shut up.
19:55And I was like, why didn't you tell me? I was with you the whole night.
19:58We weren't exactly in the greatest headspace.
20:00Still, it would have been a nice distraction.
20:02Mackenzie, my love life is not for your entertainment.
20:04I beg to differ. Still, I'm happy for you. Sounds like you two had quite the time.
20:11Yeah, I thought we did. But now that her ex is in town, she's put us on pause.
20:17Right.
20:19Yeah, doesn't matter. It was good while it lasted. But Archie's my priority.
20:24Yeah.
20:26And he always will be.
20:27Tony, listen to me.
20:29You have to have a life outside being a dad.

20:35If she expects me to wait on the sidelines for her to make a decision, she's dreaming.
20:39Oh, so what, you're just going to give up on her then?
20:41I'm not about to beg.
20:43What?
20:45You clearly really care about this woman.
20:48Guess there wasn't enough.
20:50You know, there is another option here.
