00:00Neighbours
00:02Everybody needs good neighbours
00:06With a little understanding
00:10You can find the perfect blend
00:16Neighbours
00:18Neighbours
00:20Should be there for one another
00:24That's when good neighbours become good friends
00:36Mum?
00:44I...
00:46I just don't understand why you want to do this
00:48Well, I'm not sure I can explain why
00:52I've always done my best for you
00:54Oh, good grief, this has nothing to do with you
00:56Thanks very much
00:57Oh, I didn't mean that
00:58Oh, God, I'm just making this worse
01:00Look, what I'm trying to say
01:02And making such a hash of is
01:04That nobody could have had a better mother than you
01:07Anyone would be proud to be your child
01:10Look, sometimes I even manage to kid myself
01:13That I really am
01:16I've been playing that game all my life
01:19But that's all it is
01:22A game
01:23My real, my biological mother
01:28Just walked off and left me one day
01:30And didn't even look back
01:31But you don't know that's how it happened
01:34There might have been reasons
01:36Can you think of one reason that'd make you abandon a child of yours?
01:41There's nothing to be gained by opening old wounds
01:45The woman who did that was my mother
01:48She's a part of me
01:50I need to know how big a part
01:52I need to know who I am
01:55And I don't think I can do it without you
01:58What are you so happy about?
02:10Can't do it in someone else's backyard
02:12Flaming birds
02:15Sounds like Sleeping Beauty's up
02:17Now, don't provoke him this morning, you boys
02:19It's time to get them flaming birds and an alarm clock
02:21Man, can't even get a decent wine
02:23Oh, oh, they look good
02:25Not today, it's not for me
02:26I just have orange juice
02:27They're not for you anyway
02:28I'm taking them down to the coffee shop
02:30That's lovely, that is
02:31Well, you just said you didn't want any
02:32That's not the point
02:33I've no sympathy, it's self-inflicted
02:37The only thing inflicting me, woman
02:39Is the sister who keeps serving sermons at the breakfast table
02:41What are you taking them down to the coffee shop for anyway?
02:43I'm hoping to sell them and make a little pocket money
02:45That'll be the day
02:47Don't know what news I ain't got to laugh about
02:51Especially not with the money you owe me
02:53Where to work for that lovely Beth Travers
02:55Keep me trap shut
02:57Second thoughts, I think I will have some breakfast
03:01Morning, morning, morning
03:07What's that?
03:09It's a combination
03:10No, second thoughts, don't tell me, I don't want to know
03:12Look, I wouldn't hurt you eat a balanced meal occasionally
03:15Only you can make eating sound like a circus act
03:17Oh, very funny, and speaking about balancing things
03:19You are, I'm not
03:20I've been wrestling with the household budget
03:22Ah, see, I'm way ahead of you there
03:24Ta-da
03:25You're paying me?
03:27Well, there's no need to sound so surprised
03:29It's the new me, pay as you do
03:31Hey, I like it
03:32Cash on the nail, all the way down the line
03:35Let nobody say Zoe Davis doesn't pay her debts
03:37Perish the thought
03:40Oh, that's funny
03:41Something wrong?
03:42Now, if I had another bottle of champagne in here
03:44Well, I'm not surprised the way you drink it
03:47Pour half a glass and throw the rest of the bottle away
03:49Oh, I don't see the plants complaining
03:51You feed it to the pot plants?
03:54Oh, that's sugar, it's good for them
03:56I don't believe it
03:57Next thing you'll be selling it, feed your plants on Maui
04:00And watch them grow-y
04:05I think I'll have a cup of tea instead
04:07Are you sure you haven't kept anything back?
04:10No?
04:11I don't suppose I could
04:17There you go
04:20Oh, thanks Des, it's just till Friday, I promise
04:22Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure
04:26It's gonna be a hot one, so I'd like to get an early start
04:28Look at those legs
04:33What?
04:35Well, if you've got it, flaunt it
04:37That's what I always say
04:38Huh, no wonder Beth Travis can't keep her hands off
04:41Cut it out, Daph, it's a touchy subject
04:43Oh, his diddums being all sexually harassed
04:46It's your own fault, you know
04:48You shouldn't be so provocative
04:50Ankle-length skirts and button-up collars, that's the answer
04:54Oh, it's funny if it's a girl though, isn't it?
04:56And that's the sort of advice we always get
04:58We've gotta stop leading you on
05:00Well, it is different
05:01And besides, I haven't been leading her on
05:03Oh, you took her out?
05:05Yeah, well that was a mistake
05:06Only because it didn't turn out the way you expected
05:09I give up
05:11Oh, so one creep said to me
05:12Oh yes, you know you're gonna give in in the end
05:15So why waste that time playing around?
05:18There you are
05:19She probably thinks you're playing hard to get
05:23Oh, it's difficult to know what to do in a situation like that
05:26I know that if I was in her position, I'd want to know
05:29Yes, you'd want to know who your real mother was
05:31It's only natural
05:32Hmm
05:33It's also natural for the woman who's brought her up all her life
05:36To be a little bit worried about it
05:38Obvious as that, is it?
05:39I'm afraid so
05:41Well
05:43Well, I admit
05:45I feel
05:47Let down
05:48Betrayed
05:49Oh
05:50It's a bit dramatic, isn't it?
05:52Oh, I don't know
05:54I turned down the job she offered me
05:56She took it personally
05:57She
05:58Felt I was rejecting her
06:00And now she's doing the same thing?
06:01Something like that
06:03Oh, I think you're reading too much into it
06:05I hope so
06:07I mean your relationship with Rosemary is much stronger than something like that
06:12Madge, what's going to happen when she finds out that I've been lying to her?
06:16What?
06:18Today she asked me to help her find her mother
06:21Madge, I know who her mother is, I've always known
06:24Now how can I tell her that?
06:25How can I, how can I tell her that her mother doesn't want to have anything to do with her?
06:33Well, this should be the final list
06:35Yeah, well you can forget it, we have to start again
06:37There's been a sudden downpour at the track, all our horses are good in the drawing
06:41But isn't the computer meant to make allowances for-
06:42Yeah, well the odds against rain were seven to one
06:44We can't even get that right
06:47Yeah, I know
06:51Could I have a word with you, Des?
06:53Oh, sure
06:56Well, have you thought over my offer?
06:59Well, yes I have
07:01Look, it's not that I'm ungrateful
07:03I see
07:05It's just that I prefer to play it safe
07:07I really think you need somebody more aggressive than me
07:09Well, I don't necessarily agree with that, but it's your decision
07:12But don't get me wrong, I, I do appreciate it
07:14I understand
07:16What about me, Rosemary?
07:18Still available
07:20I've said it many times before, Danny, I need someone with more experience
07:23But ten out of ten for perseverance
07:25Yeah
07:26Yes sir
07:27Oh, hello Max
07:28Hi
07:29G'day Dad
07:30Got the pigs?
07:31Um, not exactly
07:32It's, um, it's raining at the track
07:34But it's just a minor adjustment
07:36Oh, can't be too careful, right?
07:38Right anyhow, son
07:40See you in an hour or so
07:41Sir
07:42We can't reprogram in that time
07:47What are we gonna do?
07:49Could always toss a coin
07:51Look for my grandma
07:56About time, where you been?
07:58Oh, we went home to get changed
08:00Looks alright, I think the storm's missed us
08:02Yeah, I wasn't really worried about it raining
08:04Started thinking about what Daphne said about wearing shorts
08:06She was just having you on, mate
08:08Yeah, well maybe, but I'm not taking any chances
08:10Anyway, we'll soon see if the theory's right, won't we?
08:11Oh, come on
08:14How nice of you to turn up
08:17That retaining wall you put up yesterday skew-with
08:19Not according to the spirit level
08:21But it looks skew-with to me
08:22And I'm the one that has to live with it
08:24So fix it, will you?
08:25Well, I'll have to go to the hardware shop for more cement
08:28Then I suggest you do that
08:36You promised you wouldn't leave me alone with her
08:37Haven't got much of a choice, have I, mate?
08:39I'll be back in ten minutes, alright?
08:41It's gonna be a real hot one today
08:47It's gonna be a real hot one today
08:49You woke up a real sweat dress like that
08:52Should've worn shorts like Clyde
08:54Far more practical
08:55Far more practical
09:04You must be running late
09:06Well, the hour's pretty flexible
09:07They know the job will get done
09:09Sounds like an ideal arrangement
09:11It's alright
09:13In which case you wouldn't consider changing
09:14Now, what's that supposed to mean?
09:17Well, I'd like to offer you the head of the Australian end of my business
09:21You're really scraping the bottom of the barrel, aren't you?
09:24What happened? Everyone else turned you down?
09:26Not at all
09:27I happen to think you'd be very good for the job
09:30It's a change of tune
09:32Look, okay, I fired you once
09:35And you know my version of what happened then
09:37If you don't believe me, that's up to you
09:39But I'll tell you one thing
09:41You won't go very far in business holding grudges
09:44Maybe I happen to like the job that I've already got
09:47Maybe you do
09:49And maybe you'd like to take orders for the rest of your life
09:50In which case I've misjudged you
09:53At least I know the job I've got is still going to be there next week
09:56Now, you're going to have to offer me a hell of a lot more for me to even consider changing
10:00Hmm, perhaps I can
10:03Have you also forgotten that you said I couldn't take orders from a woman?
10:06I could be wrong
10:08You could be right too
10:18Good morning
10:19Mrs Mitchell, hi
10:21Not very busy this morning
10:22No, we've been quiet all week
10:24Oh, I'm sorry to hear that
10:26Actually, that rather destroys my sales pitch
10:29These
10:32Pies always were my forte
10:35Actually, I was hoping I might be able to interest you in some for the shop
10:38Oh, um...
10:40But then if business is slow, perhaps...
10:41Then these might just be the trick
10:43Oh, well, I can price them fairly reasonably
10:46Do I have to pay on delivery?
10:47No, no, no, no, when you sell them
10:49You've got me
10:50Oh, good, I'm pleased
10:51Hi, Zoe
10:52Oh, hello, Zoe
10:53Hi, Mrs Mitchell
10:54Would you like to take them all?
10:55Let's see...
10:56Zoe and I'll have to test them, of course
10:58Ah, then there's morning tea
10:59Dessert after lunch
11:00One for Mike and Scott
11:01One for Mike and Scott
11:02I think we'll take all of them
11:03Seriously, though, Mrs Mitchell
11:04All I can do is try
11:06If they sell, we reorder
11:07If they don't, well, I can't
11:09Well, you can't be fairer than that, Daphne
11:10Thank you very much
11:11Bye-bye
11:12Bye
11:14That's made her day
11:16You look like you could use some cheering up
11:17Oh, I'm all right
11:19These aren't
11:21Look, Daphne, I know what's been going on
11:22Our wages bill is exceeding our takings, isn't it?
11:25We'll be fine
11:27Well, Mike and Scott on casual rates and me
11:31What are you saying?
11:34Look, I thought about it a lot
11:35And you won't change my mind
11:37I'm the extra burden around here
11:39You'd run this place far more efficiently without me
11:41So I'm going to finish up today
11:44Besides, eat all the profits
11:46Hey, take it easy, I paid for that
11:52You're playing to the management, why don't you?
11:53Daphne, it was only a joke
11:55I guess I'm not feeling very funny
11:57Obviously
11:58Zoe's resigned
12:00How come?
12:01Because she's a friend
12:02And we couldn't afford to keep everyone
12:04She stood down, eh?
12:05I wonder you're depressed
12:07Just don't say anything, all right?
12:08Oh, hi
12:09G'day
12:11Shouldn't you be at work?
12:12No, I called and sit
12:13A few things on my mind at the moment
12:14Rosemary's offered me the job with the company
12:18Oh, lucky you
12:19Gonna take it?
12:20I don't know
12:21She's sort of weighing up my options at the moment
12:24I mean, I would virtually be running the show on my own
12:27Well, but it's more money and more responsibility
12:30Oh, she can sweat a little
12:32Or you can give yourself time to get cold feet
12:35What's that supposed to mean?
12:36Well, the way I see it
12:37The only reason you'd knock back a job from Rosemary Daniels
12:39Is because you don't think you're up to it
12:41And I can understand why you feel that way
12:44You still haven't answered my question?
12:51What question?
12:55Will you help me find her, my other mother?
12:59Darling, are you sure?
13:01I mean, have you really thought this through?
13:05Do you know how hard it's going to be to trace her after all these years?
13:08You could be setting yourself up for a lot of heartbreak
13:12Yes, I know that, but I've got to do it
13:14Now, will you help me?
13:17When can I refuse you anything?
13:19Thanks, Mum
13:21And now I've got some good news for you
13:24I've offered Paul the job
13:26Oh, I'm so pleased
13:27Yes, well, he's still dithering
13:28And if he doesn't make up his mind soon, I'll have to advertise
13:30Well, don't do that, I'm sure he'll come round
13:32Yes, well, I hope so
13:34It'll be a challenge and we'll probably fight like cat and dog
13:37That seems a strange reason to hire someone
13:40No, I think you'll be good
13:42Anyway, it won't be dull
13:43Get in here, Max!
13:48In the kitchen, Max!
13:50Right, oh, I'm starving
13:52I'll go on to your poison
13:54Well, if you hurry, Daphne might have some left
13:56Eh?
13:57Oh, fair go
13:59Might have kept some back for us
14:01Blood's supposed to be thicker than water, you know
14:03Yeah, so I've heard, but this is business
14:05Yeah, penny ante stuff
14:07Oh, is that so?
14:08Yeah
14:09Well, you'll soon change your tune
14:10Who was it said that the small businessman is the backbone of Australia?
14:14Well, at our age, no time to be thick and small
14:16We've got to go for the big bickies
14:17Oh, yes, and how are you going to do that?
14:19Horse racing, plain old-fashioned gambling
14:22Danny's system takes the gambling out of it
14:24Application of scientific principles, that's what it is
14:26Oh, well, we'll see
14:28I have my system and you have yours
14:30And in my experience, if you look after the penny ante's
14:32The pounds will look after themselves
14:34Yeah, you and Shane ought to start a fan club
14:37Danny's the only one with the right idea
14:38Gotta think beep
14:39Top off, Max!
14:48Cement ready yet?
14:49Yeah, just about
14:50It's not going to look like something out there
14:51Out of chaos comes order
14:53No doubt Madeline will have some complaint to make about it
14:55Oh, she's the paying customer
14:56She's got every right to say if she doesn't like it
14:58Yeah
15:00Oh, hell, I promised Mike I'd drop in and see how he's getting on
15:03You could make a start in breaking up the old pathway
15:04No way, I'm not sticking around here on mine
15:06Oh, come on, mate, how'd it look if we both walked out?
15:08We're supposed to be trying to build up a reputation for reliability
15:12Yeah, alright
15:14Where's Clyde going?
15:16Uh, he had a bit of personal business to take care of
15:19Oh, I brought some drinks
15:20Sorry, don't drink when I'm working
15:22It's only soft drink
15:23Here
15:28Thanks
15:29Actually, I was hoping to get a chance to talk to you alone
15:31Yeah?
15:32I was thinking about what you said
15:34We've been acting so stupid
15:36There's no reason why we can't be friends
15:38I've been thinking about it too, Beth
15:41I don't think it'll work
15:42I think it's best if we keep it strictly business
15:52Hey, you're changing your image
15:53What, eh?
15:54You mean the leather and chains next?
15:56What, chef?
15:57Just keeping tabs on me investments, eh?
15:58Oh yeah, the stock market reporter
15:59Oh yeah, the stock market reporter
16:00Alright, you can laugh
16:02But Danny's first three nags are home and owned already
16:04We're gonna make a killing
16:05Yeah, that's what he's worried about
16:06Eh?
16:07Nothing
16:08Got the rest of the pics?
16:10Yeah
16:11Huh?
16:12Oriole Lady
16:13Oh
16:14Spartacus
16:15Smooth as Silk
16:16Crispin's Choice
16:18What, that mug?
16:19I've backed her once
16:20Five hours in the race, she comes sixth
16:22Well, computer says she's due to improve
16:24Yeah?
16:25Oh, alright then
16:26Look, no system is foolproof, Max
16:28Why don't you just quit while you're ahead?
16:30Des is right, there's no such thing as a certainty
16:32All the computer can do is check the most likely winner
16:35Things can still go wrong, Dad
16:37No way
16:38I mean, you boys are on a great discovery, eh?
16:41All you need is someone with a nerve to carry it through
16:43And that's where I come in
16:44Crispin's Choice
16:46We're gonna make it pack
16:52Well, this is it
16:53You've gotta be kidding
16:54No, never more serious
16:56Have you seen where I work now?
16:58Ah, let me guess
16:59Plush modern office block, air conditioning, coffee maker down the corridor
17:03I know you've probably graduated to the two-legged variety by now
17:06How am I doing?
17:07Pretty good
17:08Office of your own with a lovely view of the car park
17:12Well, actually, I can see right across the river
17:15Oh, and that's important to you, is it, Paul?
17:17Image
17:18As I said before, at least I know it's gonna be there next week
17:21Did it ever occur to you that the only reason you've got your nice modern office block
17:25Is that somebody else had the guts to start in a place just like this?
17:28Now that's business
17:30And if you're not up to it, then you're not the man I need after all
17:34I suppose I could always put up a picture or two
17:46If I decided to take on the job
17:48Here, let me give you a hand with that
17:59I can manage
18:00Hey, come on, that's what I'm here for
18:03Well, that was the agreement, wasn't it?
18:04Clive and I do all the heavy lifting
18:06Yeah, well, okay, it goes in the cellar
18:09Just along here?
18:11Mm-hmm
18:28Where do you want these?
18:29I don't want the back wall
18:36What a stock you got here, I wouldn't be surprised if this cost you a fort
18:39Beth?
18:44Come on, Beth, the joke's a joke
18:50Beth?
