Transcript
00:00It's a million dollars.
00:01Krista, the reason I pitted you and Annalise against each other
00:04is because I honestly thought that it would bring out the best of both of you.
00:08Annalise has just checked out.
00:10She's giving us both a little bit of space.
00:12The expo's just over a week away.
00:14And we've both got a lot of work to do.
00:18It feels like we've come back to each other.
00:21I want you.
00:23And I know that you want me to.
00:30We need good neighbors with a little understanding.
00:37You can find the perfect plan.
00:44Neighbors should be there for one another.
00:51That's when good neighbors become good friends.
01:00Oh, look at this.
01:15The nice plates are out.
01:17Why so fancy?
01:19Well, I have finally finished my creation.
01:22Very happy with the redesign.
01:25And I'm coming first.
01:26Mm-hmm.
01:27And I'm going to be showing you Dad tonight.
01:30And I want to make it a bit special.
01:31Is that why I can smell roast chicken?
01:35Correct.
01:36Well, I'm guessing you want me somewhere else
01:38so I don't cramp your style.
01:39If you wouldn't mind.
01:41It's all good.
01:42But only if I can have a sneak peek.
01:45You've just been so secret squirrel about this whole project.
01:48I mean, I'm dying to see it, Mom.
01:50Please.
01:51If you insist...
01:53Wait, wait, wait, wait.
01:53I...
01:54Okay, so if you don't like it, I want you to keep that to yourself.
01:58Okay, I'm really happy.
02:00As if I would have ran on your parade, Mom.
02:02Oh, my God.
02:08Mom, this is incredible.
02:09I can't believe you made this.
02:11Thanks, sweetheart.
02:12No, like, it's really good.
02:14Like, it doesn't look homemade-ish or amateurish or...
02:18You know what I mean.
02:20This is incredible.
02:22Yes, okay.
02:24I'm very proud of what I've done.
02:25Oh, Dad's gonna love it.
02:27Oh, I hope so.
02:29I would not have been able to do this without his inspiration.
02:32And I really want him to know how much he means to me.
02:35Oh, that's so special.
02:48You okay?
02:49I'm amazing.
02:54How are you?
03:05You are amazing.
03:19I'd better go.
03:24I'm getting late.
03:27Oh, okay.
03:43Well, um...
03:45I'll call you, though.
03:48I'll be waiting.
03:49Well, I'm glad you had a wonderful time away,
04:09but we really did miss you.
04:11Yeah, yeah.
04:12Well, I missed you all, too.
04:14The best part of going away is the coming home bit.
04:16Yeah.
04:18Okay, great.
04:19Yes, I'll check later.
04:21Bye.
04:21Sorry, everyone.
04:23That was a work call.
04:24Is there a problem?
04:25Just confirming the displays are on track to meet the deadline.
04:28Good.
04:28Good, because the last thing we need is any delay
04:30is with Lucy arriving tomorrow.
04:32It's all in hand.
04:33Good, because you know that this is a one and done.
04:36I mean, we don't get a chance to do it again.
04:39Got it covered, Paul.
04:39Hi.
04:41Hello.
04:48Hello.
04:49I was expecting you ages ago.
04:53Sorry.
04:54Yeah, I, uh, should have texted.
04:56Something happen at work?
04:58No.
04:58No, I just went for a knock-off drink with the team.
05:01I'll strike a time.
05:02Oh, did you have a nice time?
05:04Yeah, yeah.
05:05Always good for a laugh.
05:07You know what it's like.
05:09Well, have you eaten?
05:10Because I can heat you up some roast chicken.
05:13Yeah.
05:14Yeah, that'd, that'd be really nice.
05:15I'm, I'm starving.
05:18Well, I'm glad it wasn't work.
05:20Because I was starting to picture an emergency
05:22or something like that.
05:24Sorry, um, it's actually really quiet in there today.
05:28Well, that's nice for a change.
05:30Well, go and sit down.
05:31It's going to be a minute.
05:32I suppose you've already eaten.
05:34I have.
05:35But, um, don't worry.
05:37I'm going to join you for company.
05:59So, how was your private time?
06:23Wait, did you stay here last night?
06:25Yeah, um, yeah, I just added it in my own space.
06:29And?
06:30And what, what naughty things did you get up to?
06:36Nothing naughty, just boring stuff.
06:38I honestly just had an early night.
06:41Well, whatever you're doing, Holly,
06:42it seems to be working because you look fantastic.
06:45Yeah, right, she does.
06:47She does.
06:47Have you been using that cream I gave you?
06:49Yeah, when I remember.
06:50Well, you're glowing.
06:53Mm.
06:53I should get a better sleep more often.
06:55Okay, well, don't say that too late.
06:56I'll lose my job.
06:57Oh, I can't have that.
06:59You know, I actually better get going.
07:00I'm going to be late.
07:01Yeah, I've got to get these up to Krista,
07:03but I will catch you later.
07:04Catch ya.
07:07Good time.
07:08Hey, um, did I miss something?
07:18Have we got something on tonight?
07:19Yeah, I was going to use them last night,
07:21but it didn't end up happening.
07:24Oh, what for?
07:26Oh, I just thought we could have a special meal
07:28for the big reveal of my finished piece.
07:33The roast chicken.
07:34Yeah, anyway, should have teed it up with you first.
07:39You live and you learn.
08:04Yeah, like if you don't die.
08:13Okay, cool.
08:14Yeah.
08:16Yeah.
08:17Yeah.
08:18Yeah.
08:19Yeah.
08:33Yeah.
08:34Hey, you are home. I've been knocking on your front door for ages.
08:37God, Max, you scared me.
08:39Oh, sorry.
08:40You can't do that. I'm on edge enough already.
08:43Sorry, I wasn't thinking. You OK?
08:45Yeah, just... just don't do that again.
08:48Yeah.
08:53There's just no way that I would have gone out of beer
08:56that I have known.
08:58Andrew, it's not like you missed the moon landing.
09:01There's going to be plenty of other special dinners.
09:03It's all good.
09:05Yeah, but it was so obvious that you went to so much trouble.
09:07I mean, you finished your entry piece. It's huge.
09:10See, this is why I didn't tell you last night.
09:12You know, I'm glad that you went out
09:14and you had a good time with your friends.
09:15You need to decompress with people who understand.
09:24Everything all good?
09:26Uh, yeah, yeah.
09:28Just, um, work admin stuff.
09:31Well, why don't we look at the quarterly reports in a few weeks?
09:35You know, once all the excitement's over and done with.
09:38Yeah, of course we can handle two big events at once.
09:41It's going to be perfect.
09:43So why don't you just come down to the expo
09:45and enjoy yourself and stop worrying about routine admin?
09:49Oh, all right, fine, fine, fine, Lucy.
09:51If that's what you really want,
09:52then I'll have them ready for you when you're here.
09:54OK, see you soon.
09:55Bye.
09:55Problem?
10:02No, no, no, it's just Lucy being Lucy.
10:04Woman never rests.
10:06Well, if you need a hand wrangling her while she's here,
10:08I'm happy to pitch in and play her with cocktails and gossip.
10:11Thank you, darling, that'd be great.
10:12I'll send up a flare if I need it.
10:14OK.
10:14Um, hey, I really am sorry about before you.
10:29You were right, I was thoughtless.
10:30No, I'm sorry for overreacting.
10:33You did nothing wrong.
10:34No, no, I deserved it.
10:36Some of it.
10:38Anyway, let me make it up to you.
10:40No, you don't have to do that.
10:41Let's just forget that it ever happened.
10:42Or we could use our couple's spa voucher.
10:47Um, Max, I doubt that Sadie
10:49will be able to fit us in in such short notice.
10:51I know, I texted her inside.
10:52She, um, she said she could squeeze us in in, like, an hour.
10:55Um, what do you think?
10:59That's a really sweet idea.
11:02Yeah?
11:04Awesome.
11:04I will text her and let her know we're coming.
11:06Mm-hmm.
11:11So any chance of lunch?
11:13Actually, yes.
11:15I'm well and truly ahead of my to-do list.
11:18Well, maybe we can even sit down properly then.
11:20Mm-hmm.
11:22Yes.
11:22Actually, yes.
11:23Um, sorry, Annalise has just messaged me.
11:25She's coming back this afternoon.
11:27How's it all going with the work stuff?
11:30Really good.
11:31Yeah.
11:31I really like her, and I think we would work well together.
11:35Hmm.
11:36So, you're saying you might want her as part of the team?
11:40Would you like to know?
11:41I could have a massage every day.
11:46I would never get it old.
11:47Hmm.
11:47You'd be like an overcooked noodle.
11:49No way.
11:49It's not possible to be too relaxed.
11:51Uh, yeah, it is.
11:52There's some muscles that you don't want to unclench.
11:54Yeah, that's so true.
11:58Oh, gosh.
12:02Oh, stupid battery.
12:04Oh.
12:06Damn it.
12:06I left my charger in the room at the hotel.
12:08When were you at the hotel?
12:13Um, last night.
12:15I just, I couldn't handle being at home with Dad and Susan playing with sex dice and JJ
12:22and Dex and Remy all there.
12:24It was just, yeah.
12:25So, I decided to buy some privacy for the night.
12:29And I didn't get a booty call?
12:30What's going on?
12:32I was feeling pretty tired.
12:34I pretty much just went to sleep.
12:36All right.
12:36Well, um, since we're both not working this afternoon, do you want to do something?
12:42I'm sorry.
12:42I'm just, I'm not really in the mood.
12:44All this Bowman stuff, I can't stop thinking about it.
12:48Yeah, but we can, we can do something to distract you.
12:51Like, we can go into the city and go see a movie.
12:53Like, whatever you want.
12:55That all sounds really great, but I think I just need to go home and sleep while everyone's
13:00out.
13:01But you should go out.
13:04Yeah.
13:05Um, all right.
13:06I might go to the piano bar and see what Tay's up to.
13:11Sorry.
13:12No, all good.
13:13Um, I'll text you later.
13:14Yeah.
13:14Yeah?
13:16Um, have a good sleep.
13:17Thanks.
13:40Hi.
13:41Hey.
13:43We need to talk.
13:44Okay, well, Annalise will be back soon.
13:49I think she's arriving about the same time as Lucy.
13:51Good, good.
13:52Well, hopefully we can work everything out with her.
13:54Yes, I hope so, too.
13:56Uh, I've set aside some time to run Lucy through the expo when she arrives.
13:59Oh, no, no, I'll do that.
14:00Well, you're busy.
14:01I mean, she's already started to make unnecessary requests.
14:04Like what?
14:05Oh, she's hassling me about the quarterly report.
14:08We just haven't got time for that.
14:10Okay, well, she probably just wants to look at it while she's here.
14:13Well, she's just going to have to wait, isn't she?
14:15I mean, you're already doing two jobs.
14:16Something's going to give.
14:17It's really not a big deal.
14:19Look, I can run the report if she's desperate.
14:21No, I want your focus where it should be,
14:24on the expo and the bronze bell, okay?
14:26Okay, can do.
14:28I've got a meeting, so thank you.
14:37Why are you delaying the quarterly report?
14:41Well, I'm not.
14:42It's just Krista's stretched and it's so unnecessary.
14:45Paul.
14:45Everybody's focus and priority should be on the bronze bell right now.
14:52That's all.
14:53Okay, Krista has everything under control.
14:55Well, so she says, yeah.
14:56Well, she looks like she does.
14:58I mean, why don't you just let her take the report off your plate?
15:03Okay, whatever you're keeping under wraps, spill it.
15:06Now.
15:10Alright, alright.
15:11I use Lasseter's funds to help bail you out.
15:14And Lucy, the second she sees those figures, is going to spoil it.
15:19I'm sorry.
15:22You stole that money to help me.
15:24I thought you sold some shares.
15:26Oh, I'm telling you, you know what the market is like.
15:28I didn't want to sell them at a loss.
15:30Hey, and besides, I own half the company.
15:32Uh, using company funds for private matters
15:35is the definition of embezzlement.
15:38I mean, I can't believe you'd risk that for me.
15:41I had to help you out.
15:44And besides, I thought that I'd be able to put the money back
15:46before anybody noticed.
15:48Oh, Paul.
15:49You do realise that if you get caught,
15:52you are up for serious criminal charges.
15:55Yeah.
15:57It won't happen again, I promise.
16:00Yeah.
16:00Yeah.
16:01Don't be mad at me.
16:03Holly, I'm not, I'm not.
16:06Well, did you even like the picture?
16:07I don't want to see it.
16:10Look, whatever happened last night,
16:12it has to be a one-off, okay?
16:14Why?
16:16You know why.
16:18But we connected last night.
16:21It wasn't just great sex.
16:23You can't cut me off.
16:24I'm married, okay?
16:26I know, but married people change.
16:28They decide that they want different things.
16:31You're allowed to be happy.
16:32Holly, I love my wife.
16:34Then what was last night?
16:36I don't know.
16:37I...
16:38It was us just getting things out of our system.
16:43Look, whatever it was, it's over.
16:46I'm sorry.
16:52It has to be this way, Holly.
16:54There's just way too much at stake.
16:57My whole life, my family, and...
17:00Any luck?
17:17There is no way we can pull enough to put back what you talk.
17:21I mean, even if I maxed everything out
17:23and put everything into overdraft...
17:25Yeah, I figured as much.
17:26There's no way I can sell a power road this quickly.
17:28I just wish you'd discussed this with me
17:32before doing something so extreme.
17:34Holly, I just wanted to help.
17:38And besides, I can see that you don't really want to sell power road.
17:43Look, if I had a choice of putting you in this position of selling,
17:46I would sell every time.
17:48I don't know.
17:49I guess I misread the situation.
17:52I love that you want to protect me this much,
17:56but it would kill me if you got into trouble for this.
17:58No, no, no.
17:59It's not going to come to that.
18:00How can you be so sure?
18:02Darling, I have come through much tighter scrapes than this in the past.
18:05You know that.
18:08I really appreciate what you've done for me, Paul.
18:11But we need to find a way to put this money back,
18:13and we need to do it fast.
18:15Yeah.
18:15Sorry, I took so long.
18:21I couldn't find the crackers that you wanted.
18:25What do you think?
18:26It's super cheesy.
18:28Mum's going to love it.
18:29I better go start this platter.
18:31Cool.
18:32Oh.
18:35Hello.
18:36What are you two doing here?
18:37Nothing.
18:38Uh, sorry, have I interrupted something?
18:42You weren't meant to be home yet.
18:45Oh, I mean, I can turn around and come back.
18:48It was meant to be a surprise.
18:50I'll go make the platter.
18:52Thanks.
18:53Oh.
18:55This looks lovely.
18:57And we were only two minutes away from having a cheese platter.
19:00Oh, no, you didn't have to do that.
19:03Yes, I did.
19:04I ruined your special dinner.
19:07I know this is not the same, but...
19:10I was still hoping to get to see what you made.
19:13Of course you can, Goose.
19:16Thank you for doing this.
19:19It means a lot.
19:22Gosh, you know, I feel so silly.
19:24I'm all nervous about showing you.
19:26It's amazing.
19:27Oh, it's a bit different to my usual stuff.
19:30But I just...
19:32I don't know.
19:32I pushed myself.
19:33You know, I wanted to do my muse justice.
19:37Go on then, stop stalling.
19:39Okay, back in a sec.
19:41All right.
19:49Oh!
19:50Give me the glasses.
19:51Give me the glasses.
19:52Oh, my gosh, it's going to lie here.
19:54Just drink it off you.
19:57Oh, thank you.
19:59Oh, my goodness.
20:00This is so exciting.
20:02Oh, my goodness.
20:02This is so exciting.
20:04Oh, my goodness.
20:07Am I allowed to look at it?
20:09Go for it.
20:17Oh, when?
20:18I don't know what to say.
20:26You could be like Sadie, so you can't believe that I made it.
20:31Oh, no, no.
20:34There's so much of you in this.
20:37You definitely made this.
20:40Babe, well done.
20:45You should put it on.
20:49I don't know if I'm going to do this justice, though.
20:51Andrew, you were my inspiration.
20:54You're the perfect model.
20:56You're the only model I want.
21:03Wow.
21:04Harry Styles ate your heart out.
21:06Yeah?
21:07Yeah.
21:08Oh, yes, please.
21:10Can you put some more sass in that, please, Miss Styles?
21:12Yeah, okay.
21:13Oh, babe, you were such a natural.
21:16Well, maybe I'll quit the service and start a new career.
21:21Yeah.
21:22London, Paris, New York, Erinsborough.
21:25World, here I come.
21:28Wow, you are so good at this.
21:31You know, they should have used you for the expo promotion instead of Holly.
21:36You know I love you, right?
21:53Yeah, of course.
21:55Never, ever doubted that.
21:57I know I said we couldn't sell this place fast enough, but do you think there's anyone that would be interested in doing a quick and dirty deal?
22:18Well, then it would all be for nothing.
22:20Keeping you out of jail is not nothing.
22:22Ah.
22:23What's up?
22:24Ah, Lucy has just caught up with Annalise at the airport.
22:27It could be a good thing, though.
22:29Hopefully they'll be so busy talking about old times that Lucy won't notice that I've taken the funds from Lasseter's to bail you out.
22:35I'm sorry, what did you just say?
22:43Coming up on Navas.
22:45$300,000?
22:46From company accounts.
22:47But how did you even do that?
22:49Am I looking at the new management team?
22:52Possibly.
22:53Do you want to talk about anything?
22:55I'm here.
22:56Ah, Holly, how would you like to be in my photos?
22:58I mean, you and Andrew, you look so good together.
