00:00What ever happened last night? It has to be a one-off.
00:02It has to be this way, Holly. This is way too much at stake.
00:05Annalise has just checked out.
00:07She's giving us both a little bit of space.
00:09The expo's just over a week away.
00:10And we've both got a lot of work to do.
00:12It's almost a million dollars.
00:14So don't sell it.
00:15Lucy has just caught up with Annalise at the airport.
00:18Hopefully they'll be so busy talking about old times
00:20that Lucy won't notice taking the funds from Lasseter's to bail you out.
00:30He needs good neighbors with a little understanding.
00:38You can find the perfect plan.
00:44Neighbors should be there for one another.
00:51That's when good neighbors become good friends.
01:00What did you just say about Lasseter's money?
01:03It's alright, it's not important.
01:05I'm married to your business partner, I think it is.
01:08How could you be okay with this?
01:11I'm not.
01:13I wasn't.
01:15I thought the money was coming from Paul's savings.
01:18I wouldn't have accepted otherwise.
01:20Dad?
01:22Therese was having some financial issues at Irene.
01:26So I helped her out.
01:28I lost a bit of my money and I borrowed a bit from the hotel.
01:30What, without Krista's knowledge or permission?
01:32Leah, it's no big deal.
01:33I always intended to put the money back before the next quarterly report.
01:37I mean, how was I to know that Lucy was going to come and move the whole thing forward?
01:41A few days ago we agreed all cards on the table.
01:44Yeah.
01:45But as I said, I was always going to put the money back.
01:47This is corporate theft.
01:48Oh no, please don't tell Krista.
01:53Okay, I won't.
01:55You will.
01:58Welcome back.
01:59Thanks.
02:00Hi Lucy.
02:02So good you were both able to time your rival together.
02:04Nothing like safety in numbers.
02:05Yes, I filled Lucy in on everything that Paul has been up to.
02:09When I sung Annalise's praises to Paul, I had no idea he was going to pit you against one another.
02:15I mean, Paul loves a game, but he went too far.
02:18Yes, I agree.
02:20You should probably stick to chess.
02:22Oh, don't forget, I want that update story on Bet's new man.
02:26Ah, yeah, you mean the one where Ned gives them matching tattoos?
02:31It's exactly that one.
02:34Well, is everything okay?
02:36Yeah, sorry.
02:37It's just Leo.
02:38He wants to meet me now.
02:40Okay, when do you want to debrief on Worldly Gems and my role here?
02:45I'll give you a buzz when I'm finished with Leo.
02:46Okay.
02:47Okay, bye.
02:48Bye.
02:50So, can you give me a hint on how you're feeling?
02:54Oh, I mean, if they'll have me, I would love to come on board.
02:59But, that's really up to Krista.
03:01I want her blessing.
03:05Max, are you happy to sit on that?
03:07Yeah, man, all good.
03:08Cheers.
03:09Hey, can I ask you something?
03:10Sure.
03:13Would you think it was weird if Rhett booked a hotel room for the night and didn't tell you about it?
03:20Polly didn't tell you that she stayed at Lasseter last night?
03:22No, not until today.
03:23She said she just needed some space.
03:25And, you know, at first I didn't think much of it, but now I, uh, yeah, I don't know.
03:31Well, I mean, needing some personal space doesn't necessarily mean she's upset.
03:36Yeah.
03:38No, but the thing is, like, I know she is because the Bowman stuff's really been getting to her,
03:43and, like, I want to be there for her, but I feel like she's pushing me away, so I just, like, yeah, I don't know what to do.
03:51Yeah.
03:52Well, when she's ready to talk, she'll talk.
03:54Mm.
03:55And when she is, you just need to be ready to listen.
03:58Yeah?
03:59Yeah.
04:00Yeah, I guess.
04:03$300,000?
04:05From company accounts?
04:07Well, how did you even do that?
04:09A little bit from here, a little bit from there, but it's all right.
04:11I'm gonna put the money back.
04:12Right, so this is why you've been arguing that we shouldn't do the quarterly report yet with Lucy.
04:17And anyway, I'm gonna be coming into some dividends soon, and if we win the bronze bell,
04:21we'll both get a bonus, so the money will all be put back. Easy.
04:25This is boring, Paul, and I'm over it.
04:29Kristen's name is on the door, too.
04:31Oh, okay.
04:35That was perfect. Thank you.
04:38Wait, don't tell me you're done.
04:40No, I just feel a bit off in the tummy.
04:44Can't stop thinking about those amazing jewelers and entering the competition and how they're gonna crush me.
04:51No way.
04:53Your new entry is amazing.
04:56They should be worried about you.
05:00I know it's good, but they are really good at getting attention.
05:04You should see the numbers that these people are getting on socials.
05:07With their drone shots and their fancy fashion shots.
05:11I mean, how am I meant to compete with that?
05:12Come on.
05:14You're one of the most creative people I know.
05:16Surely you can come up with something funny and interesting that people want to watch?
05:20Can I?
05:21Yeah.
05:23Yeah, I wish that people could have seen you strutting in my jewellery.
05:26Fuck.
05:27That would have got some clicks.
05:28Yeah.
05:31Oh my gosh, that's it.
05:32You're my secret weapon.
05:36What me?
05:38Oh my gosh.
05:39You will look great in my jewellery and people won't be able to keep their eyes off you.
05:42Oh my gosh, please.
05:43Can you please be my model?
05:47Okay, stop.
05:49You are the best husband.
05:51Yeah.
05:55And, ta-da!
05:58We have the place ourselves, so I thought it would be a beautiful day for a picnic.
06:03A pool picnic.
06:05Pool picnic?
06:06That's a cute one.
06:07I figured, um, now you've caught up on your sleep, we could resume our couples day.
06:11I can't believe you've gone to so much trouble.
06:14Yeah, of course.
06:15Anything for you.
06:16You know that.
06:22Let's get this party started.
06:23Yeah, great.
06:26So what are you going to do about Annalise?
06:29An hour ago, I was going to tell her that I would love for her to manage the hotel with me.
06:34And now?
06:35Now, I don't even know if I want to stay at Lassiter's.
06:42What do you think?
06:44Basically what you're experiencing is why I'd never go into business with Dad.
06:49And why you never ask him for money.
06:52Yeah.
06:54I'll support you in whatever you want to do.
06:56But don't forget he needs you too.
06:58Especially if he's going back and forth between the states.
07:00Hi.
07:04Got your message.
07:06You ready to chat?
07:09Oh.
07:11I feel like I'm about to get bad news.
07:13Actually, I have an idea that could be a game changer.
07:19Okay, give me a smile.
07:20No, no, no.
07:21Like, give me a real smile.
07:22You know, like a cheeky smile.
07:23Yeah.
07:24Okay, babe.
07:25No, no.
07:26You just need to relax.
07:27You are so stiff.
07:28Yeah.
07:29I'm a cop and not a model.
07:30Yeah, but you were doing so well before.
07:31Come on.
07:32Just keep on doing more of that.
07:34Okay, you know what?
07:35Let's just...
07:36We'll try again.
07:37Okay?
07:38Um, just try to relax your shoulders.
07:40No, okay.
07:41Well...
07:42Oh, babe.
07:43You know what?
07:44Think of something fun.
07:45Like cheese.
07:46No, no, no.
07:47No, no.
07:48No, no.
07:49No, no.
07:50No, no.
07:51No, no.
07:52No, no.
07:53No, no.
07:54No, no.
07:55No, no.
07:56No, no.
07:57No, no.
07:58You know what it is.
07:59Surfing.
08:00Surfing.
08:01What about that time that Sadie, she face-planted into her cake when she was five.
08:04Yeah.
08:05Yeah, come on.
08:06That was funny.
08:07Look, sorry.
08:08I...
08:09I don't know.
08:10Do you think someone else could help you with this?
08:14That's it.
08:15That is it.
08:16You wait here.
08:18Where are you going?
08:24Um, hey, you should try some of the prosciutto.
08:26It's really good.
08:27Oh.
08:28If I eat anything more I'll explode
08:31Okay, what about some more champagne or I could get some water from the house. It's okay
08:36You don't have to keep playing waiter. Just relax. Okay. Okay. I just
08:41Want to make sure you're having a good time. I am. This is so good. So thoughtful
08:50Hey listen, if you want to talk about anything I'm here
08:54No, I'm not good. Sorry to intrude. Oh max. I'm just looking. There she is. Holly. I need your expertise
09:06Andrew has
09:08Agreed to model my jewelry for my socials, but he's acting like a real robot and I have the no usable photos. Hey, Wendy
09:15We're um, we're kind of in the middle of something here. Oh
09:17I
09:20I'm so sorry. Of course. You know what? I can take care of it. I'm so sorry max. Sorry intrude. Wait, um, what do you need help with?
09:30I don't know
09:31Making Andrew relax, and I thought you could have some tips from when you were modeling at the exhibition would be a huge help
09:38Do you think you could just spare her for a few minutes?
09:40Um
09:44Yeah, yeah, I guess I'll follow you over. Thank you. Yeah, I won't be long five minutes tops. Yeah, sure
10:00Lucy
10:02Has everyone forgotten how to answer their phone?
10:05I'm sorry. It's been one of those days
10:07As usual, I don't know whether to hug you or put you across my knee
10:12How about we just be brother and sister for the next five minutes? Yeah funny. I thought you'd say something like that
10:19Hey, how's Mark and Annie? Oh, they're great. Oh, I hardly recognize her when he showed me a photo of her
10:26Uh, sorry, I've got to go
10:29Yeah, but I just got here. Yeah, I
10:31Leo needs me for something. I'll call you later
10:33Oh, don't be long because I want to run through the expo then I want us to do the quarterly report
10:38And then I want to catch up with my brother. Yes to all three of those, but not right now, okay?
10:43Listen now, Trace
10:44Why don't you catch Lucy up on the latest goss from Port Douglas here?
10:52Well, it's um, you know, it's actually great news. Um, Agnes and Harold are moving in together
10:59Oh
11:01Mm-hmm
11:04The cavalry has arrived
11:09Apparently I'm the resident expert on jewellery and modeling
11:14Ah, you two can do whatever. I'm just going to change the battery on this camera
11:18Cool
11:22Sorry, she was adamant
11:26Wendy said that you're having trouble getting into it
11:28Yeah, this is not really my thing
11:32Yeah, but that is why it works so well because you are a regular guy and people really respond to that
11:37Yeah, totally and people can tell when you're faking it
11:40Okay, so let us try again and Holly you can sort of coach Andrew
11:47Yeah, um, okay, so maybe put this shoulder back
11:53and
11:54and
11:55and
11:55and uh, look at the camera
12:07Okay
12:07Oh Holly, you're a miracle worker. It's already a million times better
12:20Okay, ready?
12:21Okay, ready?
12:23Yes, go babe
12:27You want me to step back from the hotel completely?
12:31That's right
12:34No popping your head in and out in between trips to New York
12:42So you're expecting me to be a silent partner in my own hotel?
12:46No, Paul, you could never be silent
12:51I'm not delusional
12:53But I demand full autonomy
12:57And what about you?
12:59If I don't agree, you're not coming on board
13:02I always said I only wanted the job if Krista wanted me there
13:05So I support everything she says
13:09Yeah, this is all on you, Dad
13:11All right, what next? What? You're just going to get up and walk out the door immediately if I don't agree
13:18No, we're not going to do that
13:20We will see the expo through and give out all to the bronze bell judges
13:25But after that, I want an answer
13:31Look, I might leave you to it
13:33I want to make sure everything's on track for the expo
13:41Do you tell her about the loan?
13:49No
13:52What about Lucy? I suppose you're going to use this as leverage against me, are you?
13:57I don't want to
14:00But I will if I have to
14:06Krista, this is a really, really big thing you're asking
14:10Yeah, and you're asking a lot of me
14:18Dad, you've made it clear you're ready for a change in your life
14:22Maybe giving up control of the hotel
14:27It'll be a good thing too
14:31This is for the best
14:40I can't tell her she's leading the door
14:49Oh my god, my god, my god, my god, my god
14:53Oh, my god, my god, my god, my god. baby, girl
14:56Yeah, I'll be happy
14:57You know, Missy, I can't tell her
14:58I'll be happy
14:59But I'll be happy
14:59I cannot tell her
15:00She's coming fromという
15:01She's coming from me
15:01I can tell her
15:02I can tell her
15:03I'll be happy
15:04Okay, thanks
15:04Okay, thanks.
15:06Oh wait, Hol, just get closer to Andrew and look at me.
15:11And Andrew, look at me.
15:15Oh, that is so good.
15:16What's going on?
15:17Holly, how would you like to be in my photos?
15:21I mean, you and Andrew, you look so good together.
15:25Um, what do you think?
15:27I think it'd be a bit confusing
15:28because Holly was modelling for the expo.
15:30Yeah, which is why it is perfect.
15:31It's going to give me some street cred.
15:34Okay.
15:35Sure.
15:36Okay, um, Holly, can you do your modelling thing?
15:39Sure.
15:40Yeah, okay, great, before.
15:43Okay, uh, something different, yeah?
15:50Yeah, my jewellery, can we do something
15:52to sort of really highlight that?
15:54It's meant to be like, you know,
15:56beautiful, love, peace, inspiration.
16:04Um, yeah, you know what?
16:07Um, I think you've got a case of the robots.
16:10How about we turn you here?
16:13Andrew hand across.
16:15And then, yes, I love this.
16:18Show us the necklace.
16:20Okay, good summer.
16:37Maybe just move your hand up a bit more.
16:41Yeah, I think that's enough.
16:42I'm done.
16:43I'm done.
16:44No, Andrew!
16:45Andrew!
16:46Oh, I'm so sorry.
16:48I knew that he didn't really want to do this.
16:51And here I am just moving around like a lump of meat.
16:54Um, I should get back to Max.
16:56Oh yeah, of course.
16:57Yeah, I'd better check on my grumpy hubby.
16:59First I'll check on these.
17:02See ya.
17:03See ya.
17:10You okay?
17:12You know the answer to that.
17:16What are you doing here, Holly?
17:18Wendy told me to come.
17:19Yeah, but you could have said no.
17:21I mean us out there posing in front of her, she's my wife.
17:24I know that.
17:25We agreed.
17:26There can't be anything more between us.
17:29I miss you.
17:30Holly, I-
17:31And I know you feel the same or else you wouldn't be so worked up.
17:33I'm not worked up.
17:34Yes you are!
17:39Your heart is beating like a million miles an hour.
17:41Tell me that that's not for me.
17:44It can't be.
17:49Hey, hey!
17:50Hey!
17:51Let's bring the picnic over to Cher.
17:52I know it started as a, um, as a pool picnic, but you know, I thought it could be like a backyard picnic or, you know, a street picnic, a spa.
18:00Yeah, that's fine.
18:01Yeah, that's fine.
18:02We're-we're finished.
18:03Um, what about we make it a lounge room picnic?
18:05I wanna watch a movie of mine.
18:08Um, yeah.
18:09Yeah, sure.
18:11See ya, mate.
18:12See ya, mate.
18:13Do you think I'll agree?
18:14I honestly don't know.
18:15Hmm.
18:16It's a big risk to take.
18:17Yeah, but what risk?
18:18You know, I'm already losing out when it comes to Paul.
18:20I'm sorry if it feels like I'm gambling with your future too.
18:23Oh, no, I get it.
18:24I mean, the man is impossible.
18:25But what are you gonna do if he says no?
18:26Ask Leo if there's any waitressing jobs going at your copy.
18:30Hey, Lucy.
18:31Hi.
18:32Hi.
18:33Is Paul here with you?
18:34Yeah.
18:35Is Paul here with you?
18:36Yeah.
18:37Yeah.
18:38Yeah.
18:39Yeah.
18:40Yeah.
18:41Yeah.
18:42Yeah.
18:43Yeah.
18:44Yeah.
18:45Yeah.
18:46Yeah.
18:47Yeah.
18:48Yeah.
18:49Yeah.
18:50Yeah.
18:51Yeah.
18:52Yeah.
18:53No, he's not.
18:54Oh.
18:55Leo's just putting Abby to bed, but he's very excited to see you.
19:00So, am I looking at the new management team?
19:05Possibly.
19:06Hmm.
19:07Just time to sort a few things out with Paul.
19:09Is that where you got to before?
19:11We just saw him?
19:12Yes.
19:13Do you know when we can actually catch up on the quarterly report?
19:17Well, I'm not sure it's done.
19:19Really?
19:20Paul actually said it was.
19:22Oh.
19:23Maybe I got it wrong.
19:25Um, actually, did you want us to take you through the exploit?
19:27That's it.
19:28That's it.
19:29That's the one.
19:30Definitely.
19:32Definitely.
19:33Definitely.
19:34Definitely.
19:35Definitely.
19:36Definitely.
19:37Definitely.
19:38Definitely.
19:39Oh, isn't it great?
19:40It's perfect.
19:41It goes look great together.
19:42It goes great together.
19:44That's it. That's the one. Definitely. Definitely, definitely.
19:56Oh, isn't it great? It's perfect.
20:01It goes up great together.
20:03I know that my actions may have upset Krista, but she can't expect me to step back from the hotel completely.
20:14Let's just see what happens over the next few days.
20:20Oh, Lucy.
20:25What's going on, Paul?
20:27Huh? I just spoke to your head of accounts and apparently you have ordered him not to prepare the quarterly report.
20:34Yeah, well, I'm having issues with his performance.
20:38But earlier, you actually said it was done.
20:41Yeah, and it will be.
20:42What are you hiding?
20:45Do you know?
20:49Come on, Paul. There's no point delaying the inevitable.
20:52Oh, no, Trace.
20:53Okay, look, Lucy, I've had some financial difficulties lately and Paul borrowed money from Lassiter's to help me out.
21:02Yeah. I was just alone, that's all.
21:05Did Krista agree to this?
21:08One of the conditions of your licence is that you must not misuse company funds.
21:13It's my company.
21:15Half your company, subject to the rules of the franchise.
21:18Ah, can't you just turn a blind eye like we used to in the good old days, eh?
21:24It's not the 90s, Paul.
21:26We have standards and obligations now and you have clearly breached them.
21:31All right, all right, all right.
21:32But can we discuss this after the Expo and the Bronze Bell judges have gone?
21:35Because I really need to charm them.
21:38Oh, charm them. You won't be getting anywhere near them.
21:42Excuse me?
21:43I'm banning you from the Expo and the hotel effective immediately.
21:48Okay.
21:49Coming up on Neighbours.
22:04I think I might have identified the problem at Irene.
22:07We don't have enough occupancy.
22:09Lucy can't ban me from the Expo.
22:11I want that Bronze Bell.
22:13Can you please talk to Aaron?
22:14I don't know that we're going to survive the separation.
22:16I really thought this was it for us.
22:18Long distance gets to work.
