00:00Sirs, stop it.

00:09Make all of me!

00:12I'm so sorry I left you alone with that guy.

00:14If I hadn't, this might not have happened.

00:15Hey, hey, hey.

00:17No, this is your fault.

00:18I am going to hold the hospital responsible for my attack.

00:21I'm going to make sure that nothing like that ever happens again.

00:24Oh, is that your new boyfriend?

00:26He's not my boyfriend.

00:28Yeah.

00:28He's taking me out again tonight.

00:30I'm so sorry, Harper.

00:32I really like you, but we can't see each other anymore.

00:36I can't go home.

00:37Connor texted.

00:38He thinks I'm on a date.

00:40He can't know I got dumped.

00:41I honestly don't think he'll be that bad.

00:43No, he can't go.

00:44I am starting a record label.

00:47What's this?

00:48That's your contract.

00:49I want you to be the manager.

00:50Is it just the two of us?

00:51I hope not.

00:52Sonny!

00:53Sonny.

00:54Call me back when you get this.

00:55I've got an offer that you won't be able to refuse.

00:58Old mate hasn't lost his fortune already, has he?

01:18Oh, he's not busking.

01:20Look at his guitar case.

01:23So he's just playing.

01:25Yeah.

01:30I'm going to get this to Mackenzie.

01:32Enjoy the show.

01:33Well done.

01:34Oh, thank you.

01:48Thanks, everyone.

01:49Big stuff coming.

01:53Hey.

01:54Hey.

01:55How'd the meeting with Admin go?

01:57Pretty sure they have saw necks from nodding so much.

01:59That's good.

02:00No, complete waste of time.

02:03Yeah, they were so busy saying,

02:04we absolutely hear you,

02:05but they weren't listening.

02:06Is there someone higher up that you could go to?

02:08I don't know.

02:09Maybe.

02:11Oh, hey.

02:11I didn't even realise you were here.

02:13Yeah, Harwell was just leaving.

02:15I thought we were going to watch a movie.

02:16Oh, were we?

02:17Well, I think we're going to have the rain check.

02:18Bree's had a really big day.

02:19I think she wants to debrief.

02:20No, no.

02:21Hang out.

02:21I'm going to go to bed.

02:23Night, guys.

02:23Night.

02:24Okay, night.

02:24How's she doing?

02:28Didn't she just get out of hospital?

02:29Oh, seriously.

02:30Go home.

02:31Oh, come on.

02:32Sonny's still with his family.

02:34We can have sleepover like old times.

02:36You are not trying to bond with me.

02:37You were here so that Tane thinks you were sleeping with Drew.

02:40That's sad.

02:40Go home.

02:41Tell the truth.

02:41Okay, do you not see how humiliating that is for me?

02:44Everybody has bad dates.

02:45I am sure the demigod himself has been dumped.

02:48I'm staying over.

02:49End of story.

02:50And as time passed, Maui's giant fish became the North Island.

03:02Te Ika a Maui.

03:04That's where I was born.

03:06That's where your whanau is from.

03:07And Maui's canoe became the South Island.

03:12And the anchor became...

03:18The anchor became...

03:20Stay close.

03:23Stay with hope.

03:25It's not gone till we let it roll away.

03:35Hey.

03:36Hey.

03:37How are you going?

03:38Mmm.

03:39A little better.

03:41Okay.

03:42How was the restaurant?

03:44Yeah, good.

03:45Busy, actually.

03:46Remy was playing at the front,

03:48so hopefully he's feeling better.

03:50He pulled a bit of a crowd, actually.

03:56Hey.

03:58Are you sure you're feeling okay?

03:59Okay, whenever you ask me,

04:01all I can think about is the echo retrieval tomorrow.

04:03Sorry.

04:03Yep.

04:04I know you're asking because you care.

04:05No, you don't want to be reminded.

04:06Oh, I don't want to be reminded, you know,

04:07because I'm trying to let go of expectation

04:08because I don't think I can handle being disappointed again.

04:13Mac.

04:14Hmm.

04:14Whatever happens tomorrow,

04:16we're going to face it together.

04:17Okay?

04:18I'm going to be right there with you.

04:19You know, you could have borrowed

04:30literally anything of mine to wear.

04:32I can't even think I'm doing a walk of shame.

04:34I can't do that in my sister's clothes.

04:36Oh, see, I didn't connect those dots.

04:38I guess because I'm not insane.

04:40Be honest, if the roles were reversed,

04:42you would do exactly the same thing.

04:44Well, if that is true,

04:45then wouldn't this be the chance

04:46to prove that you're the braver, more mature sister?

04:50Why don't you just tell him it didn't work out,

04:52so you wanted a DNM and you came and slept at mine?

04:55That makes me sound like a total loser.

04:57Probably lying about this is so much cooler.

04:58No, I can't tell him, all right?

05:00He knows I really liked Drew.

05:02Yeah, he's not going to make you feel embarrassed about it, too.

05:04He's a nice guy.

05:05Yeah, exactly.

05:06He won't move on until he knows I'm okay.

05:09Hmm.

05:10You don't think you're making up something altruistic,

05:12so I let you continue this insane plan?

05:14No, I'm being serious.

05:15Tana stopped seeing Joe because of me.

05:17Like, he will never move on

05:19if he's guilty that I'm moping around after him.

05:21Well, that's very noble of you.

05:23Also, you are not staying at my apartment

05:25every time you have a fake date.

05:26I won't.

05:27I won't always be like this.

05:27Yeah, no, he's not going to be like this

05:29because you know what you're going to do?

05:31You're going to go home and tell the truth.

05:33Rip the band-aid off.

05:34Move on.

05:37All right, I'm going.

05:38Yeah, atta girl.

05:39They always say

05:41you know when you know

05:43Morning, sunshine.

05:47When did you get back?

05:48About 20 minutes ago.

05:49Right.

05:49You haven't been home yet?

05:51No, but if you can ask me about Brie,

05:53then you might as well...

05:54No, no, no, no.

05:54That's done with.

05:55All right, I am moving on.

05:58Okay.

05:59Good.

06:00Anyway, I'd much rather talk about this big offer

06:03that I can't refuse.

06:04Yeah, you are going to love it.

06:09Okay, out with it.

06:10Enough of the suspense.

06:11What is it?

06:14I'm starting my own record label.

06:16Dude!

06:17Man, that's huge.

06:18Congrats.

06:18Thanks, mate.

06:20Got Justin on board.

06:21He's going to manage the tower.

06:24But I need you to be my marketing guy.

06:28Marketing?

06:29Yes, marketing.

06:30What do I know about marketing?

06:32You do remember the days when Lyric was starting out?

06:35Yeah, of course.

06:35I remember the smell of the basements.

06:36You were our hype guy.

06:38You were the guy pulling in the crowd.

06:40That's true.

06:41Yeah, I mean, you were grabbing strangers from the street.

06:43You were putting up posters, getting on the socials.

06:46You called those radio stations.

06:47Yeah, but it was all for fun.

06:48I'm assuming this label is going to be serious business.

06:50Yes, it is going to be serious business and more money.

06:52But at the heart of it, it's still the same gig.

06:55Getting the word out.

06:57I don't know, man.

06:58Surely there's someone more qualified.

06:59I'm sure there is, but I don't care about fancy qualifications.

07:03I know you.

07:04I know what you're capable of.

07:06Mate, you were born to do something like this.

07:10So what do you say?

07:14I mean, it depends.

07:16Are you going to make it worth my while?

07:18Are you in or are you out?

07:20I'm in, bro, obviously.

07:22You're not in?

07:22Come on.

07:22Good.

07:22No matter what happens, I'm here.

07:26I've got you.

07:27Yeah.

07:28Can we just go?

07:29I'm not going to ask if you're okay.

07:31You're just going to have to tell me.

07:32I just, I want this so badly, and this is exactly where we went wrong last time.

07:36That doesn't mean it's going to happen again.

07:38Look, we've been here before.

07:39We know what to expect.

07:40I know.

07:43Let's go.

07:43Hey.

07:57Hey.

07:57Welcome back.

07:59Did you have a nice time?

08:01Oh, nothing beats the night with Archie.

08:04Hey.

08:05Hey, little dude.

08:07How are you?

08:09Yeah.

08:10Oh, that's brutal.

08:12Oh, hey.

08:14How did he sleep?

08:16Yeah, great, great.

08:17I'm just about to feed him.

08:18Oh, I can do that.

08:19No, no, I can if you want to.

08:21If I want to what?

08:24Well, you've been out all night, so if you want to freshen up, then I've got him.

08:28Oh, right.

08:31Ah, listen to me.

08:32Sorry, I didn't mean to make things awkward.

08:34No, you didn't.

08:35Just so we're clear, I'm really happy that you've met someone.

08:41Well, thank you.

08:43Ah, and thanks for watching him last night.

08:46Yeah, yeah, no, you know I love my one-on-one time with him.

08:49So if this Drew guy is making you happy, then go on as many dates as you want.

08:54I think it's great.

08:54Okay, great, sounds like a plan.

09:05Yeah, I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

09:07Thanks, Keith.

09:08All right, bye.

09:09I'm sorry, was that security guard from work?

09:12Yeah, I invited him to lunch.

09:15Well, if I'm going to make changes to security, then I have to understand how things work on

09:19their end.

09:20Oh, that makes sense.

09:21I mean, hopefully he's got something to say.

09:22Yeah.

09:23Hey.

09:24What?

09:25He's home early.

09:26I knew she didn't know.

09:28Yay.

09:29So how was it?

09:30How was your brother's graduation?

09:32Yeah, the funny hats and the robes weirded me out a little bit, but the bender, I took

09:35him on afterwards.

09:36That was the real highlight.

09:37Oh, I hope he survived the experience.

09:39Oh, yeah, love.

09:40Um, anyway, I can't stay for long.

09:43I'm just dropping my bags off because I have a business meeting to attend.

09:46A business meeting?

09:47Yeah.

09:48Business?

09:49Business.

09:50Yeah, with Remy and Justin.

09:51Oh, is this about the new record label?

09:53Wait, so did Remy give you a job?

09:55Is something happening?

09:56Walk with me and I'll fill you in.

10:07Hey, well, how are you feeling?

10:22Tired.

10:25It's just a sedation wearing off.

10:26Mm-hmm.

10:29I'm sorry.

10:31I just can't stop thinking about how this is exactly where we were last time.

10:37The clinic said things went really well.

10:41They've found even more eggs this time.

10:43It doesn't matter if they find a hundred.

10:46If they can't be fertilized.

10:48I just mean...

10:49Please don't try and get my herbs up right now.

10:55Come on.

10:56Let's get you inside so you can rest.

10:57Come on.

11:07I'm so sorry you got hurt.

11:15No, I'm not yet applying you.

11:18I just...

11:19I want to understand why security didn't come when we called.

11:22At the time, there's a fight in the car park and an incident in the pharmacy.

11:26So security can't handle more winter incidents at once?

11:29Admin won't pay for enough staff.

11:30But even if they did, they're powerless to actually do anything.

11:33So what do you mean?

11:35We're just a visual deterrent.

11:37All we can actually do is call the cops.

11:38Are you kidding me?

11:40I know.

11:41But that's the policy in Northern Districts and we have to abide by it or we'll lose our jobs.

11:46You know, the more I learn about hospital management, the more I feel like they don't care about us at all.

11:52If you're serious about trying to improve the situation...

11:55Yeah.

11:56...you should start with this.

11:58What's this?

12:00So, Sonny, eh?

12:02Sonny's fun.

12:02Plus, he can draw a crowd.

12:04You know, he just needs someone to give him a chance.

12:06You look like someone else who got a chance from there.

12:08Yeah, yeah.

12:09Look, if he's good enough for you, he's good enough for me, mate.

12:11No, he is, mate.

12:12I can't tell you the amount of times he's turned up to one of our gigs with a hundred of his new best buddies.

12:16Let's have the gift of the gun.

12:23Let's go somewhere else.

12:25You all right?

12:25Yeah.

12:25Yeah, just, uh, I'll tell Sonny to meet at my place.

12:28My business meeting's been moved.

12:35Where?

12:36Remy's.

12:37Oh.

12:37I can't sit and have a cocktail.

12:39What, should you be businessy there?

12:40Next time.

12:40Mm.

12:41All right, the look okay?

12:42Yeah.

12:43Good.

12:43Go win at marketing.

12:44I will.

12:45Hey, bro.

12:46Hey, how are things at home?

12:48Uh, good.

12:49Did, um, Harper tell you about her date?

12:52No, but I assume it went pretty well.

12:54She didn't come home till this morning.

12:55Right, right.

12:56So she didn't, she didn't talk to you about it?

12:59No, no, not really.

13:00But I'm sure she'll tell you everything if you ask her.

13:02Yeah, yeah.

13:03So she just seemed regular-dagular.

13:06Yeah.

13:07Cool.

13:08Hey, this Drew.

13:10See, he's a good guy.

13:12Oh, you know, he's a guy.

13:14Oh, come on, be honest.

13:15I mean, he could end up being in my son's life.

13:17And I want to make sure Harper's okay.

13:19Well, Harper says he is super romantic and super strong and not douchey at all, so.

13:27Right, okay.

13:28So I guess she'll be staying at this place even more, then.

13:31That would make sense, wouldn't it?

13:33You know how it is.

13:35What's that?

13:36It's new love.

13:37You know, you can't keep away from each other and no doubt Drew's got some big thing planned for tonight.

13:44Wait, tonight?

13:45Yep.

13:46That's funny.

13:47Harper didn't say anything about looking after Archie.

13:48That is funny.

13:49That's funny.

13:50Well, it's probably just in the spell, you know, in the days of it all.

13:54Oh, okay.

13:55Well, I'd better drop the stuff off and then head home.

13:57Better.

13:57Well, thank you for organizing all that.

14:19It's all right.

14:19I like looking after you.

14:23I'm sorry that I've been so down in the dumps lately.

14:26You haven't?

14:27Come on.

14:28I haven't exactly been upbeat.

14:30And I just want to say that I know that this is really hard for you too.

14:35It's just every time that I get my hopes up, I get this, like, knot in my stomach and I just feel like I'm two seconds away from losing everything.

14:42You know?

14:46Look, neither of us can control what's about to happen.

14:49And that's hard for both of us to get it.

14:54We just have to let the experts do their best and remain positive.

15:01Take each moment as it comes.

15:02I'm so lucky to have found you.

15:09I'm the lucky one.

15:13You sure you want to do this now?

15:15Yeah, well, I wouldn't be.

15:17Seeing Bree with another man, that can't have been easy.

15:20Thanks, mate.

15:21But, uh, Bree and I are done.

15:23I don't want to focus on the future and that is the label.

15:26For how?

15:27Mate, I'm going to pour everything I can into this to make sure it is successful.

15:31Okay?

15:31It has to be.

15:33Hey, I thought we were having a fancy business lunch.

15:35Oh, yeah, well, plans have changed.

15:37Oh, we can't put homemade sangas on the business expense account.

15:39Not yet, but we're just getting started.

15:42First thing we need to do is find an office and a recording space.

15:45I looked through the options you gave me.

15:48Do you really want any of them?

15:50They're the only rental spaces in the area.

15:53Have you thought about buying a place outright?

15:58A real estate investment could pay off in the long term.

16:00Plus, we wouldn't need anyone's permission to make changes to the place.

16:04This is all deeply interesting, but I can't think on an empty stomach.

16:07Go to the fridge.

16:08Why don't we look through some commercial listings and just see if anything works for us?

16:13Yeah.

16:13It's gratitude.

16:14Then we'd find the perfect spot for us.

16:16Yeah.

16:16I can't believe how many incidents have taken place without any action for management.

16:28You think they take their duty of care more seriously?

16:31Yeah.

16:33Unruly behaviour by a visitor and the admin apologised to them.

16:38That's crazy.

16:40Did you know there was an armed hostage situation a few years ago?

16:42I'm reading that now, and a doctor was shot dead.

16:47They did nothing about improving security after that.

16:49Nothing.

16:51Thank you for this.

16:52I'm not going to rest until something changes.

16:55I admire the determination, but don't get your hopes up, okay?

17:00Good luck on the door.

17:00There are so many places to choose from, but what about this one?

17:12This was a doctor's surgery, right?

17:14If we knock out this wall here, put a studio up in the background.

17:20We've got to think of soundproofing, too.

17:21Yeah, for sure.

17:23Mm-mm.

17:23No.

17:24That's the one you want.

17:25That's the warehouse.

17:27Mm.

17:27Correction.

17:27It's a huge warehouse.

17:29What do you want all that space for?

17:31Arcade games.

17:33Go-kart track.

17:35You do remember what kind of business this is, right?

17:38Yeah.

17:39Look, if we want to sign the cool kids, we have to be cool.

17:42We want them to walk in and be like, wow, we've got to sign with these guys.

17:46It could be cool.

17:48Artists could have someone to chill between sessions.

17:50What, a good basketball hooper?

17:51Yeah.

17:51Honestly, guys, I just think that is a waste of money.

17:54Money that we could be spending on marketing, recording gear, you know?

17:59Mm-hmm.

18:04All right, what about ping-pong time?

18:07All right.

18:15You have a phone?

18:16What did you read it?

18:17Because you don't want to answer it.

18:18I was feeding Archie.

18:19What's wrong?

18:20You lied to Tane.

18:22You've seen him.

18:23Please tell me you kept up my story.

18:24Yes.

18:24I, your very loyal sister, kept up the tall tale.

18:28Okay, thank you.

18:28No, hold that thought.

18:30I also told him that you and Drew have another date planned.

18:34What?

18:34When?

18:35Tonight.

18:36Why would you do that?

18:37Because I panicked.

18:37I panicked.

18:38Oh, I can't believe this.

18:39Well, believe it.

18:40Because you were the one that lied first, so I was following my big sister's example.

18:44You've made it a million times worse.

18:45You could have just told the truth in the first place, but you didn't.

18:48And so then I had to stand in front of him, and he was looking at me, and he was concerned

18:50about you, and he was concerned about Archie, and so then I had what I can only describe

18:53as an out-of-body experience, where I start seeing myself talking, and I think-

18:57Will, will you shut up?

18:58What am I going to do?

18:59I don't have a date.

18:59I don't know.

19:00I don't know, but I need you to fix this so that we can both stop lying.

19:04Hmm.

19:05It's now.

19:06Ha-ha.

19:07Oh, my God.

19:07Hi, hi.

19:08I'm here again.

19:09Hi.

19:09What are you here for lunch, or?

19:11No.

19:13See ya.

19:22Your sister's where?

19:23Yeah, that's one word for her.

19:25I actually saw her earlier.

19:26She said that you're seeing Drew again tonight?

19:29Yeah.

19:30Oh, so another lad's not for me and Archie, then.

19:32That's cool.

19:33Oh, but that's short notice.

19:34I can cancel.

19:35No, go.

19:36No.

19:36No, that's not fair on you.

19:38No, honestly, it's fine.

19:39You should go.

19:39No, I've been going out a lot.

19:41Like, it's just-

19:41It's all good.

19:42Honestly, we're going to be fine.

19:43You go.

19:44Good.

19:49I was thinking we start with established artists first up.

19:53People who are successful enough to help pay the bills while we're building the name.

19:57No.

19:57No, I think we should go all in on artists that no one else is paying any attention to.

20:04You mean people who are not making any money?

20:06All right, Remy can cover the bills in the meantime.

20:08Hey, is that right?

20:10Hmm.

20:10Look, I think we invest in them early, all right?

20:13Sign them for minimal outlay, and then that way we make a huge packet when they blow up.

20:17Yeah.

20:18Oh, hang on.

20:19It's a real estate agent.

20:20I can take it.

20:20Hey, mate.

20:21Yeah.

20:22Thanks for getting back.

20:23Oi.

20:25Do you really want to be here?

20:28Yeah, of course I do.

20:29Why do you keep treating this label like a joke?

20:31I'm not.

20:32You know what Remy's been through?

20:34Yeah, hell, more than you do.

20:35Well, then you know he needs this to be successful to help him get through everything he's been

20:40through with Bree.

20:41No, Remy doesn't have a problem with any of my ideas.

20:42Yeah, because he's your friend, all right?

20:45And he's got a soft spot for you.

20:46You've got to stop taking advantage of him.

20:49You need to chill.

20:50Well, if you're going to treat this like a joke, you need to step aside.

20:56So can you be serious or not?

21:04Behave yourself, little man.

21:06Well, he feels a little hot.

21:08Maybe I should reschedule?

21:09I'll keep it on.

21:10You go.

21:11Enjoy yourself.

21:12Um, is this another date?

21:13What's that?

21:14What?

21:14I'm allowed to ask.

21:15I mean, is he nice?

21:17Is he hot?

21:18Oh, right.

21:19Don't want to jinx it.

21:20Oh, darling.

21:21Is he late or are you early?

21:23Shall I start planning your fake wedding now?

21:25Oh, just, you know, stay out a few more hours and then in a couple of days tell Tarnay it

21:29fizzled out.

21:30Hey, hey, ladies.

21:31How are you going, Tarnay?
