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
00:38Nicky, will you go until Lucy dinner's ready, please?
00:40I hope she doesn't bite my head off.
00:44How are things going, Scott?
00:45I've got it wrong. How many are there?
00:47Can't you count?
00:48Yeah, there's you and Dad, Nicky, Lucy and me...
00:51Paul. I was counting Paul.
00:54I think perhaps it's time one of us went across to Lasseter to see how Paul's getting on.
00:58Yeah, well, I'll go across. You know, just check the place out.
01:01Yeah, good idea.
01:03Gotta keep in touch.
01:04Well, do we have the pleasure of Lucy's company tonight?
01:07I don't know.
01:08What did she say?
01:09Well, she wasn't there.
01:10What do you mean she wasn't there?
01:12Oh, no. Don't tell me she's gone off somewhere on her own in a huff.
01:16If she's gone down that park again, I'll be very out.
01:18She's probably with one of the neighbours. Now, why don't you two go and try and find her?
01:21Why do I have to go looking for her? I'm hungry.
01:24It won't take long. Go on.
01:26I bet you I know where she is. Probably playing with Bradley or something.
01:29Yeah, well, if she is, I'll tear her backside for her.
01:31Jim.
01:32That's direct disobedience and I won't tolerate it.
01:34We all know how much she loves her dad and if playing up is the only way she's going to get his attention, she'll do it.
01:39Yeah, I suppose you're right.
01:42Alright, I promise I won't lose my temper with her. Not till I get her home.
01:45Come on, you two. Just up and down the street. She won't be far away.
01:49Go.
01:56Oh, hello. I didn't expect to see you this evening.
01:58Just can't keep away, can I?
02:00That'd be right.
02:01But apart from that, I'm trying to find my family.
02:03Oh.
02:05Oh, Jim. Hello.
02:07Hello.
02:08Would you like a drink?
02:09No, thanks. I'm looking for Lucy. She wouldn't happen to be here by any chance, would she?
02:13Actually, yes, she is.
02:15Well, I'm glad I found her, but didn't we agree that Lucy and Bradley should be kept apart?
02:20Then why did you let her come here?
02:22I didn't let her.
02:24Oh, I see. She sneaked out, did she?
02:28I thought Bradley was the bad influence.
02:31It won't happen again. Would you mind telling Lucy it's time to come home, please?
02:35Okay.
02:43Don't take any notice of her, you know what she's like.
02:45Yeah, I just have to remember not to take it out on Lucy.
02:49She's only giving me a hard time because she's having one herself.
02:52Well, I think she's okay now.
02:54We had a bit of a chat today and she seems to have sorted it all out.
02:57Oh, that's good news.
02:59I don't believe this.
03:01It's her fault.
03:03Bradley wouldn't have done something like this without her.
03:06Done what? What are you talking about?
03:07Bradley and Lucy. They've run away.
03:10What?
03:11Here, read it for yourself.
03:13Me and Lucy are going away for a while.
03:16How long does Bradley think a while is?
03:18I have no idea.
03:20Look, all I know is that Bradley's out there somewhere, it's getting dark and I want him home.
03:25I wouldn't worry too much at this stage.
03:27They'll probably come back when they get hungry.
03:29What if something happens to them first?
03:32Well, if you're that worried about it, I'll call the police.
03:34Excuse me.
03:35The police?
03:36Don't you think it's a bit soon for that?
03:38Well, not if you think something could have happened to them.
03:40Well, look, I think it was just the initial shock.
03:43It's probably just one of Bradley's bad jokes.
03:46I doubt it.
03:47Lucy's been feeling fairly hard done by lately.
03:49Well, why don't we wait for Des to get back from his mother's flat?
03:53He might know where they would have gone.
03:55Maybe.
03:56He'll be back any minute.
03:58All right.
03:59But in the meantime, I'll get my family out looking.
04:02Come on, let me come with you.
04:04No, I don't think that's a very good idea given the circumstances.
04:06Well, you'll let me know, won't you?
04:07Yeah, sure.
04:08Don't worry, we'll find them.
04:09Of course we will.
04:13They can't be too far away, Jim.
04:14We'll find them.
04:15Well, what would you care?
04:17It's your fault that it's happened.
04:18How do you work that out?
04:20Well, it's obvious, isn't it?
04:22Lucy's run away because of you and Jim going out together and Bradley wouldn't have gone without her.
04:26Oh, come off it.
04:28Maybe you're right.
04:32If you are, I'm sorry.
04:34Well, what good to accept her?
04:36None at all.
04:38So instead of standing here and arguing, I'm going out to have a look for them, okay?
04:42You don't have to do that.
04:46I want to.
04:49Thanks.
04:52Tell me that this is the same at your place, Matt.
04:55As soon as dinner's ready.
04:56They're nowhere to be found.
04:59It has a steamroller effect.
05:00Lucy was late, so I sent Scott and Nicky out to look for them.
05:03And while they're looking, she's likely to come waltzing back in.
05:05Hmm?
05:06Yes, probably.
05:07You can forget about dinner for a while.
05:08Lucy has run away.
05:09What?
05:10Well, Bradley left a note.
05:11The two of them have gone off together.
05:12A note?
05:13Did it say why?
05:14Well, it didn't have to really, did it?
05:16I mean, obviously Lucy's idea.
05:17Well, have you called the police yet?
05:18No, not yet.
05:19I will before it gets dark, but Andrew wanted to wait till Dez got home.
05:22She felt Dez might know about some special hiding place of Bradley's or something.
05:25Oh, in the meantime, I'll round up Max and the boys.
05:28I'm sure they'll be happy to help you.
05:29Thanks.
05:30I'd appreciate it, Madge.
05:31And I thought Lucy had just forgotten the time.
05:34Well, I'm going to look in the garage, all the obvious places.
05:37It's just possible she wants to be found.
05:42What did the police say?
05:43I haven't rung them yet.
05:45Why not?
05:46Well, I didn't want to send them on a wild goose chase, but they haven't been gone long.
05:51What's the matter with you?
05:52You should have called them straight away.
05:54Well, if you must know, I was trying to protect you.
05:57If the police get involved, the whole street will know that you're Bradley's father.
06:00I don't care if the whole world knows, as long as those two kids are safe.
06:06Police?
06:09Here's Jim now.
06:10Oh, good.
06:13Not assigned.
06:14I'm going to take the car and look a little further afield.
06:16What about calling Paul? He'll help.
06:17I'd rather not. We've got enough people looking already.
06:19No, we haven't.
06:20But if you don't feel up to phoning, I will.
06:30PHONE RINGS
06:31Yo, Paul Robinson.
06:33Hello, Paul. Darling, it's Gran here. We need your help.
06:36What's the matter?
06:38Lucy's run away with Bradley, would you believe?
06:41They've only been gone for a couple of hours, so there's no need to panic.
06:45We thought you might help us find them.
06:47Well, have you got any idea where they might have gone?
06:49No, none at all. So any thoughts would be welcome.
06:53All right. Look, I'm outside the door now. I'll give you a ring as soon as I get back.
06:56All right. Thanks, darling. Bye.
06:58Bye.
07:02He wants to help.
07:04Fine.
07:05Oh, Jim, would you rather he didn't care?
07:07Helen, Jim didn't mean that.
07:09Of course I didn't. It's just that at the moment I'm feeling, well, you know how I'm feeling.
07:15I'll go now. I'll pop in and see Des on the way out. Can't we call the police?
07:22I tried the park and the school yard and everywhere. I just don't know where else to look.
07:25The creek?
07:26I tried there.
07:28Any luck?
07:29Nothing yet. I don't want to put it off anymore.
07:31Could we call the police?
07:32I already have. They'll be here in about five minutes.
07:34Ah, good. You don't mind if I stay around until they get here because I want to talk to them.
07:37I know I might be panicking, but I feel much happier with them involved.
07:41Andrea, why don't you make us some coffee or something?
07:44All right.
07:46I'll give you a hand.
07:50Oh, Jim, do you really think Lucy ran away because of us?
07:53I don't know, Zoe. It's possible.
07:55Why don't you face up to it? Of course it's why she did.
07:59We don't know that for sure.
08:01Well, I do. And I also know that if it wasn't for your daughter, my son wouldn't be missing.
08:05Andrea, cut it out!
08:06Why should I?
08:08You have been complaining about Bradley ever since we've arrived here,
08:12blaming him for everything that you could.
08:14Well, this time it is not his fault, it's Lucy's.
08:16And don't you try to tell me that it isn't!
08:19Andrea, I know you're upset, but so am I.
08:22Could we possibly save the accusations till later?
08:24No!
08:26Oh, look, I'm sorry.
08:28Just ignore me, will you?
08:30Sometimes I can't stop myself.
08:31I just wish I knew where they were.
08:32I just wish I knew where they were.
08:36I just wish I could save my house.
08:37I'm sorry.
08:38I just wish I could save my house.
08:39But I didn't know where they were.
08:40It's a good thing I found you guys when I did.
09:08If you were intending on spending the night in my car, you would have been pretty uncomfortable, wouldn't you?
09:13I would have been alright.
09:14Oh, yeah.
09:16Okay.
09:18What are you doing?
09:19Bringing home.
09:20No, you can't. It's not fair.
09:22Lucy, what isn't fair is not letting Dad know that you're alright.
09:25He's going to be worried sick about you.
09:27He couldn't care less.
09:31Okay, sit. Bradley, you too. I want to have a word with you both.
09:38Okay, what makes you think he doesn't care about you?
09:41That's easy. He hits you and that means he doesn't care about you.
09:44And if he doesn't care about you, that means he doesn't care about me.
09:48What about you? Do you think your mother doesn't care about you?
09:50Of course she does.
09:51I just ran away to look after Lucy.
09:53I see.
09:54Well, you're wrong about one thing, Lucy.
09:58Dad does care about me.
09:59Then why'd he hit you? Why'd he say all those awful things to you?
10:02For the same reason that I said all those awful things to him.
10:05People do say things that they don't mean sometimes.
10:08Well, I don't.
10:09Oh, don't you?
10:10What about all those fights we had and you said you were never going to talk to me again?
10:14That's different.
10:15Is it?
10:16What about the time you said you hated me?
10:18Did you really mean that?
10:19You know I didn't.
10:21Exactly.
10:22Just the same as Dad didn't mean it when he said all those things to me.
10:27And as far as him hitting me, well, I probably deserved it for butting in where I shouldn't have.
10:30So what are you going to do?
10:34Bradley, that's a good question.
10:37No, Max, we haven't heard anything.
10:40Bye.
10:42Oh, I should have seen all this coming. I knew Lucy was upset.
10:45Oh, Helen, come on. Now, you can't blame yourself.
10:49Then why do I feel so guilty?
10:51Because you're her grandmother and you can't help it. It's inbuilt.
10:54Oh, it's more than that. I should have been firmer with her. I know I should have.
10:56Oh, who knows, Helen. If you'd done that, she might have run away earlier.
11:00The truth is the children are totally unpredictable.
11:03And it's no good beating ourselves over the head about the things we've done wrong.
11:06Speaking from experience.
11:08The problem with my two was that I never knew when to be gentle and when to be firm.
11:14Eventually, what I did was be far too hard on Charlene and too soft on Henry.
11:19Charlene adored Henry.
11:22When he started to have problems, she blamed them on me.
11:25It must have hurt.
11:28Not so much as her electing to stay with her father when the marriage ended.
11:33Oh, mad. You must miss her.
11:35Very much.
11:37Oh, listen to me.
11:40I was trying to cheer you up, not burden you with my little problems.
11:46Clive saw them down the street earlier.
11:48They were heading for the main road, but that was about an hour ago.
11:50Jim Robinson?
11:59No, there's no news here either, Nicky.
12:04Please, Paul, please. I don't want to go home.
12:06Haven't you just heard anything I've been trying to tell you?
12:10It's all right. You've got to reprieve. It's engaged.
12:13Does that mean we can stay here? It's better than home.
12:15Yeah, I'll be a good girl. I promise.
12:17Sorry, but home's where you belong.
12:19Look, no matter what you think of it here, it isn't home.
12:23Lucy?
12:24Paul, please don't get mad.
12:27Lucy, don't you remember how unhappy we all were when Scott ran away?
12:31I suppose so.
12:33Well, what you were doing is making everyone even more unhappy.
12:36Look, just because you were angry with Dad,
12:37that doesn't give you the right to upset Gran, does it?
12:40And what about Scott? What's he done to deserve all this?
12:43Nothing.
12:45And what about you, Bradley?
12:47You love your mum, don't you?
12:49Yeah.
12:50Well, why are you trying to hurt her?
12:52I just ran away to look after Lucy.
12:54If I'd let her go by herself, she could have got murdered, or bashed,
12:56or cut up into little pieces.
12:58All right, all right, I get the picture.
13:00All the same, don't you think it was time that you let her know where you are?
13:03Probably.
13:05Just leaves you, Lucy.
13:08All right.
13:10Good girl.
13:12I'm proud of you.
13:12Every time that rings, I think it's hard.
13:18Jim Robinson.
13:19Oh, Dad, it's Paul.
13:20Oh, hello, Paul.
13:21I thought I might be the police.
13:23Well, actually, it's better than that.
13:24I've got Lucy and Bradley here with me.
13:25They're okay.
13:26Oh, that's terrific news.
13:27They're with Paul.
13:28Where were they?
13:31All right, look, I'll come and get them now.
13:33Dad, actually, there's a couple of things I wouldn't mind sorting out with Lucy.
13:36So, do you mind if I take them to dinner and bring them back straight after?
13:40Well, do you think that's best?
13:41Well, yeah, I'll do.
13:43All right, well, you bring them back when you're ready.
13:45Okay, thanks, Dad.
13:46We'll see you later.
13:46Okay.
13:47Bye.
13:47Bye.
13:49What a relief.
13:56Oh, I still can't believe it.
13:57They're safe.
13:58Oh, I was imagining the most horrible things.
14:01I think we all work.
14:02Des, can you take me down there?
14:04I want to get him straight away.
14:04Do you think that's a good idea?
14:07Bradley's not going to be very thrilled about being dragged out of Lasseter's.
14:10Since when do you tell me how to deal with my son?
14:13Someone has to.
14:14He's right, Andrea.
14:16Wouldn't it hurt to let Paul bring him back?
14:18It'll only be about half an hour or so, all right?
14:21I suppose so.
14:23Seeing as everybody else seems to know better than I do.
14:27Then it's settled then.
14:29I guess I should call police.
14:31Oh, that's okay.
14:31I've done it.
14:31I was a bit embarrassed about all the fuss we'd caused, but apparently it happens all
14:36the time.
14:36The sergeant was very pleasant about it.
14:38Hey, I'm sure the police would rather it ends this way than any other.
14:41Well, I still don't understand how you can treat children to dinner after what they've
14:45done.
14:45Well, Paul has a lot of common sense, and if he thinks that's the right way to handle
14:49the situation, I'm prepared to trust him.
14:52That's very interesting.
14:54I heard that you virtually threw Paul out of home.
14:57Andrea?
14:59I'm only saying what I've heard.
15:01As a matter of fact, I heard that you did more than just that.
15:04Do you care to enlighten me?
15:08No, Andrea.
15:09I wouldn't.
15:12I suppose they'll complain when they get this lot served up to them tomorrow.
15:15Probably.
15:17All I can think about is that I'm absolutely furious with this.
15:21I got sorry for her this morning, and now I could wring her a little neck.
15:24Oh, I know exactly how you feel.
15:26First of all, there's the worry about them, and then there's the relief when you find
15:31out they're all right, and then there's how dare they do this to me.
15:34Yes, you've obviously been there.
15:36Many times.
15:37See your coffee.
15:38Ah, tea.
15:38I'll warm the cups.
15:40Your favourite pasta.
15:44Hey, Helen.
15:45Hmm?
15:46When Lucy comes back, try not to be too hard on her.
15:49What, you mean don't punish her?
15:50No, I don't mean that exactly, but try not to be too critical.
15:54Am I usually?
15:55No, of course you're not.
15:57It's just that looking back, I see a lot of similarities between Lucy and Charlene as
16:02a child.
16:04I can't help feeling that, had I been more lenient with her, she might be here with me
16:10now.
16:11Oh, I'm sure Charlene will see things your way, especially when she gets older and understands
16:16things better.
16:17Maybe.
16:19Anyway, what am I worrying about?
16:20She's her father's responsibility now.
16:22Yes, well, here's the parents.
16:27May they all survive.
16:29Preferably in one piece.
16:31Oh, you little butt bag, I could murder you for going off like that.
16:35But I left you a note.
16:38I didn't just go without telling you.
16:40Oh, and that's supposed to make it all right, is it?
16:43Oh, never mind.
16:44I'm just so glad you're home.
16:46But I'm warning you.
16:48Tess has got a few words to say about this one.
16:51Can you fix it for me now?
16:52Mm-mm.
16:53Not this time, kiddo.
16:56I can't thank you enough, Paul.
16:58That's okay, I didn't do too much.
16:59Actually, it was the other way around, they found me.
17:00I don't care how it happened, I'm just glad that it did.
17:05And by way of saying thanks, if you ever get sick of Lasseter's food, why don't you come
17:09over here for dinner one night?
17:10Well, actually, the food at Lasseter's is too good to get sick of.
17:13But instead, how about I buy you lunch one day, Sam?
17:16I'd like that, very much.
17:18Okay.
17:19I'd better get Lucy back home.
17:20I'll see you later.
17:21Okay.
17:22Thanks again, Paul.
17:22Bye.
17:24Right, mister.
17:26Time you faced the music.
17:27Well, what have you got to say for yourself?
17:40Hi.
17:44Um.
17:47Well, you're going to have to say a bit more than that.
17:50Well, they only did it because of Lucy.
17:51I was trying to look after her.
17:53Oh.
17:55No, no, no, I'm sorry, that's not good enough.
17:58You're just going to have to be, um, punished?
18:02You know that, don't you?
18:05Des, um, don't you think he's been through enough as it is?
18:10Why don't we just all sleep on it?
18:12No, no, no, he has to be taught a lesson.
18:16Don't you reckon, Bradley?
18:19Yes, Dad.
18:21When did they come in?
18:22They've been sitting in that car for ages.
18:24Does it matter?
18:26At least we know she's safe.
18:28Paul's looking after her.
18:31You've changed your attitude, haven't you?
18:33Hmm.
18:34Well, I've had time to calm down.
18:36And if I'm perfectly honest, I suppose I was a bit hard on them in the first place.
18:40A little.
18:42Anyway, I'm glad it's all resolved.
18:44I don't think I could cope with any more tension.
18:48Oh.
18:48Would you feel more comfortable talking to them by yourself?
18:51No, no, no, no, no.
18:52Safety in numbers.
18:55Hello, Lucy.
18:57Hello.
18:59Thanks for looking after me, mate.
19:01It's okay.
19:01Dad, Gran, Lucy's got something she wants to tell you about.
19:07Go on.
19:09I want Paul to come back home.
19:11Hey, that's not what we'd agreed you'd say.
19:13I don't care.
19:15All I promised was to say that I didn't mind about Dad and Zoe.
19:19And I was only going to say that because I wanted you back home.
19:23I'm sorry, I didn't know this was going to happen.
19:25Go, go.
19:26Paul, wait.
19:27Dad, I know you probably don't believe me, but I really didn't know she was going to say that.
19:34But I do believe you.
19:36And there's another thing.
19:37I owe you an apology.
19:39I had no right to hit you.
19:42I don't know.
19:43I reckon with all the things I said, I probably deserved it.
19:47I'm sorry, too.
19:51That's a relief.
19:52Yeah.
19:52Well, listen, why don't you give Lucy what she wants and come home?
19:58That wouldn't work.
20:00Why not?
20:00We all want you here.
20:02Yeah, but it's not just that, Dad.
20:04I just need a break from the family, that's all.
20:07Okay.
20:08I'll see you soon.
20:08See you soon.
20:08I'll see you soon.
