00:00Questions about what happened on that day.
00:03No more guilt.
00:04No more confusion.
00:06I'm really worried about Lacey.
00:08Me too.
00:09She's gonna need us both for a very long time.
00:12How are you holding up?
00:13Now I can say with absolute certainty that I didn't do it.
00:16I didn't cause Mom's death.
00:18You don't think I'm terrible for feeling that way?
00:20No, I don't think you're terrible at all.
00:22If you need me at all, call anytime.
00:24Thanks.
00:25Well...
00:26I'm starting a record label.
00:28I want you to be the manager.
00:29I was just showing Justin photos of the place I bought.
00:32Yeah, what do you think?
00:33It'll be better once the fit-out's completed.
00:35Yeah, and once the tech guys arrive with the sound gear from Germany, right?
00:38Fellas, fellas, this all...
00:39It sounds amazing, but I've got to pull you up there.
00:41I can't do it.
00:42I don't have the capacity for it, especially with everything that's going on.
00:46He's got to be my priority.
00:47This all just feels so wrong.
00:49What do you mean? Why?
00:50Justin's already bailed.
00:52To be honest, mate, my heart just isn't in it anymore either.
00:59Hi, Dana.
01:00No! How'd you not with me?
01:01Because you stomp like a baby elf.
01:02I was going for stealthy.
01:03How are you?
01:04Not bad. How was your shift?
01:05Long.
01:06Long.
01:07I was actually already in the middle of it when you text me about Theo's memorial.
01:09Otherwise, obviously, I was going for stealthy.
01:13How are you?
01:14Not bad.
01:15How was your shift?
01:16Long.
01:17I was actually already in the middle of it when you text me about Theo's memorial.
01:21Otherwise, obviously, I would have gone.
01:22It's all right.
01:23I didn't expect you to drop everything.
01:24How was it?
01:25Yeah, it was really amazing hearing all the stories about him I hadn't heard.
01:26But yeah, it was pretty heavy.
01:27Of course.
01:28Well, the memorial was just a start.
01:29You know, it's a start.
01:30It's a start.
01:31And then, it's just a start.
01:32It's a start.
01:33It's a start.
01:34It's a start.
01:35It's a start.
01:36But I've never heard me.
01:37I know what you're talking about, but I'm going for stealthy.
01:38How are you?
01:39Not bad.
01:40How was your shift?
01:41Long.
01:42I was actually already in the middle of it when you text me about Theo's memorial.
01:45It was pretty heavy.
01:46Of course.
01:48Well, the memorial was just a start.
01:52Remy and Justin have pulled the pin on the record label.
01:56I get why Justin will want to prioritise him and Lear at the moment.
02:00Yeah, I mean, I get it too, but it's no reason for Remy to give up on the label.
02:05Remy's heart's not in it anymore, babe.
02:07Yeah, I know, but I mean, he spent so much time and money on it.
02:10He bought a studio. He's been dreaming big.
02:13Oh, jeez, I kind of thought it was just doing it to get over Brie.
02:16There's that too, but, you know, all the more reason to continue.
02:20So what are you going to do?
02:24What's up?
02:27It's for Macy.
02:29She moved out.
02:31Oh, wow.
02:32I mean, I knew she was living with her family, but I didn't know it was permanent.
02:35I'm really going to miss her.
02:37I get it, though.
02:38Yeah, me too.
02:40Just being with her family is what she needs right now.
02:43I should text Brie.
02:44I should let her know.
02:48Well, I guess we've got a spare room now.
02:49She's a fire that never ends.
02:58She was not fooling around.
03:00I've been many miles away.
03:05Hey.
03:06Hey.
03:07How's your walk?
03:08It was good.
03:09I reckon he's due for a feed, though.
03:10Oh, are you hungry, my little guy?
03:13So, Jerry wants to meet up again.
03:16I think someone might have a crush.
03:18So just there's a lot going on at the moment, that's all.
03:20Well, I'm more than happy to spend time with this little guy.
03:23Yeah, bubba.
03:26Hi, Joe.
03:26Nice to see you.
03:28Hey.
03:29Sorry, I didn't realise you guys had plans today.
03:31Wow.
03:31No, no, no.
03:33It's nappies and laundry for me, so enjoy your ketchup.
03:36See you.
03:37See you, boy.
03:37Thanks.
03:39Hmm.
03:41You OK?
03:42Yeah, I'm fine.
03:43Actually, I'm not fine.
03:46I don't know why I said that.
03:48Come on.
03:50Break is on me.
04:01Thanks, mate.
04:06Remy.
04:07Hey, mate.
04:07How you getting on?
04:09Ah, yeah, I think I'm better.
04:11Yeah.
04:11Sorry to hear about Theo, man.
04:12I know you guys were close.
04:14Yeah.
04:14Yeah, we were.
04:16How's Lacey?
04:17Um, yeah, she's not great, but she has my dad taking care of her, so.
04:21That's good.
04:23Ah, I'll leave you guys till it.
04:24Come and see you.
04:25Yeah, take care, mate.
04:26See you.
04:28Table or booth?
04:29Uh, booth.
04:33What?
04:33Uh, so, any news?
04:37What's happening with this guy?
04:38He said he's got a face call today.
04:40Yeah, but because he already confessed, Dad said, it's like a full mouth lady.
04:44Oh.
04:45Do you know when the sender thing will be?
04:46No, not yet.
04:48So, you must be relieved.
04:51Yes and no.
04:55Do you ever wish you could switch your own brain off for a few hours?
04:58I think everybody does.
05:01And how does that work in practice, though?
05:04Well, I couldn't bore you with a lecture on calf muscles and how the soleus works if it will help you zone out.
05:10You know, that actually sounds strangely appealing.
05:14All right.
05:15Well, how about I get us some coffees and we can just talk about absolutely nothing important.
05:19Perfect.
05:20Yeah.
05:28Yes.
05:34Just because we're not roomies anymore, that doesn't change anything.
05:37All right?
05:37We're still friends.
05:40Good.
05:41Okay.
05:42Just take care of yourself.
05:44All right.
05:44Talk to you soon.
05:45Bye.
05:46You little mind reader.
05:48No idea how much I wanted a coffee.
05:50No, I did.
05:52Was that Lacey?
05:53Yeah.
05:54I really think it was the right thing, her moving in with her family.
05:57Mm, yeah, me too.
05:59Are you thinking about Theo?
06:01Yeah.
06:02But mainly Remy.
06:04And he's lifting up.
06:05Even more than me, I think.
06:07Well, he's quit the record label.
06:08What can you do?
06:10A few swift backhanders to his head might straighten him out.
06:12Yeah, I think maybe don't hit him today.
06:16Yeah.
06:17Either way, I need to talk some sense into him.
06:20Yeah.
06:27I need a word with you.
06:29That sounds serious for you.
06:31You're not giving up on the record label.
06:32No.
06:33Too early for this.
06:34Look, someone needs to stop you from being an idiot and walking away from this.
06:37Look, music's always inspired you, man.
06:39I mean, that and women, but music doesn't always break your heart.
06:41Thank you for the reminder.
06:43Look, face it.
06:44Without the label right now, you're a bit of a loser.
06:47You're really selling it, aren't you?
06:48I get you're upset about Theo.
06:50I do.
06:50I mean, we all are.
06:51Sonny?
06:51I think, look, the label doesn't feel right anymore.
06:55End of story.
06:56So just let me enjoy my coffee in peace.
06:58Sonny?
06:59Sonny?
06:59Look, I've got a million reasons why we both need this label.
07:02Just hear me out.
07:06Fine.
07:07You buy me another coffee first.
07:09Out of your own money.
07:10You'd be dumb to let this recording studio go to waste, all right?
07:20I saw how proud you were showing the photos of the space of Justin yesterday.
07:23Thanks, mate.
07:24Yeah, right before he quit.
07:26What about all the plans you had?
07:27Give it up, mate.
07:29I've already made my decision.
07:31How could I sign our first artist when I know it was always meant to be Theo?
07:36I hear you.
07:37I do.
07:38Try flipping that.
07:41All right.
07:42Theo was giving music another shot because he refused to give up on his dreams.
07:47Yeah, but I didn't start this because it was my lifelong dream.
07:49No, you started it so you could try and move on from Bree and it was kind of working.
07:52Bree and I are fine, thank you.
07:54Really?
07:55Yeah, we are, all right?
07:56She went out of her way to tell me about Theo.
08:00And even if we weren't cool, getting over an ex isn't enough of a reason to keep doing this.
08:07All right.
08:08Well, here's a bigger reason.
08:12What better way to honor Theo than by giving new artists a break?
08:19You'd love that idea.
08:24Yeah, I haven't thought about it like that.
08:27I know, because you're not as smart as me.
08:28Get out of yourself.
08:29Come on.
08:31You know I'm right.
08:36Yeah, you are.
08:40All right, great work today, guys.
08:41And if you haven't already, please make sure to register for your next class, okay?
08:44Yep.
08:44All right, we'll see you next time.
08:46Next time.
08:48Hey.
08:50Hey.
08:50Feeling any beer?
08:52Honestly, I'm a bit embarrassed.
08:54Oh, why is it?
08:55I just feel like I've been leaning on you two marks lately.
08:59I did offer to talk.
09:03It's almost like you knew mindless chit-chats exactly what I needed this morning.
09:07Oh, right now.
09:08I wouldn't exactly call the biomechanics of car phrases mindless.
09:10Oh, no, that was riveting.
09:14Look, I know we didn't dig into anything too deep, but if you're up for it now.
09:19Surely you're busy.
09:20Oh, not if you give me a hand packing up with stuff.
09:23Go for a walk after.
09:26I'd love that.
09:27All right.
09:32Hey.
09:33Hey, no.
09:35Bad timing.
09:36We've got a patrol soon.
09:38Oh, well, I just came to give you a gift.
09:41For moi.
09:42And Sonny, to say thank you for looking after me this past few weeks.
09:45Oh, that's okay.
09:46I just hope the eye's okay.
09:47Is it okay, Mr. Archie?
09:48Yeah, don't even need painkillers.
09:50Oh, beautiful.
09:51Okay, I'm ready.
09:52Go on, you too.
09:52Give me my big expensive gift.
09:55Ta-da!
09:56Oh, you're not serious.
09:58Just don't pop it around me.
10:00Oh, okay, so you're funny now.
10:02Mm-hmm.
10:02Well, Sonny will very much appreciate the joke and the free alcohol.
10:07This is way funnier than some silly bear.
10:10Bea, lay off patch.
10:12Archie loves him.
10:13Basically part of the family, isn't he?
10:15No, he's encroaching on my territory.
10:18Don't listen to your silly mom, Archie, okay?
10:20We're the only family you're ever going to need.
10:22Yeah.
10:23It's all this relief now that Wendell's finally confessed, but now that it's over, I just miss
10:36my mom even more.
10:38Yeah, a bit.
10:40Especially now that dad's busy helping Lacey, I just feel like I'm so in my head with nowhere
10:45to let it out.
10:47That's what I'm here for.
10:47You always know how to make me feel better.
10:54Haven't done much, really.
10:55Well, you know when to listen.
10:57It's a rare quality in the male of the species.
11:00Yeah, I do my best, you know.
11:02Do you know what would really cheer me up?
11:04What's that?
11:06Watching your face while I play the voicemail from the wedding again.
11:08Oh, no, come on.
11:09I thought you deleted that.
11:10No, never.
11:11It's my ringtone now.
11:13So you never want me to call you again?
11:18I'd hate that.
11:24Question.
11:25How come Harper was so cool about us meeting up earlier?
11:29We're in a good place.
11:31Feels like a genuine friendship.
11:34Very mature.
11:35So there's nothing getting in the way, say, if you happen to be someone you were really,
11:43really into?
11:45I guess not.
11:55Everything okay?
11:58Dad wants us to go visit Mom's grave today.
12:01When was the last time you went as a family?
12:03Well, since the funeral.
12:07Have you been back alone since?
12:09Last time I had a full-time panic attack.
12:12Well, you haven't had a panic attack lately, have you?
12:16No, I haven't.
12:18Things are different now.
12:20Could be a good chance for you to prove to yourself that you can move on.
12:26It's really important to go together.
12:28It's what Mom would have wanted to.
12:31I reckon you got this.
12:33Yeah, I do, too.
12:49What was that for?
12:51Just to say thank you.
12:53For everything.
12:54Is that how you usually thank people?
12:56Well, yeah, all the time.
12:57Don't think you're special.
12:58I guess it's the second time you've surprised me with a kiss.
13:02And if you're lucky, there'll be a third.
13:04You should go.
13:05Dad and Lacey will be waiting for me.
13:07Sure.
13:08All right, my darling.
13:30Yeah.
13:30Love you.
13:31Bye.
13:31Bye.
13:31Oh, I wasn't expecting to see you in here today.
13:37Yeah, it's a quiet morning at the bait shop.
13:39I just got off the ground to chat.
13:41It's so lovely to hear his voice.
13:43Oh, how is he?
13:44Yeah, he's really good.
13:44He's doing very well.
13:46Well, that's good.
13:47We need all the positive news we can get around here.
13:49Yeah, we do.
13:49Oh, hello.
13:51Yeah, hi.
13:53Hello, my darling.
13:54Oh, you look so handsome today.
13:57Well, it's not quite the thought that I have when he's screaming at four in the morning.
14:00Oh, my goodness.
14:03Hello, sweetheart.
14:04Can you hear, Auntie Melissa?
14:05Oh, my goodness.
14:06Hi, Alf.
14:10How are you going?
14:11Well, I'd complain, but I'd listen.
14:15Oh, that's work.
14:18I can't ignore that.
14:19I'll go if you're right.
14:20Do you mind holding him for a tick?
14:23Oh, sure.
14:25Sure.
14:25What's it, Daisy?
14:26Is he?
14:27Right, old little matey.
14:29You're not going to give me any trouble, are you?
14:31Because I reckon you and me can become great mates if we give it a go.
14:35You're a natural, Mr. Stewart.
14:37Well, working with Palmer for all those years.
14:40Kids are easy.
14:41Poor Charlie.
14:42Okay.
14:43Yeah.
14:44Thanks.
14:45Bye.
14:45You could almost be Archie's granddad, Mrs. Stewart.
14:48Well, as long as it's not great, granddad.
14:50There we go.
14:52Good boy.
14:52I'm telling you, we don't need to hire a ton of people to get it done.
14:55How would you know?
14:56You've only seen photos of the place.
14:57You're just too rich these days to get your hands dirty.
15:00Okay.
15:00So you're happy to do all the soundproofing, do all the painting, rip the old equipment
15:03out, put the new equipment in?
15:05Hiring sounds good.
15:06Yeah.
15:06Dana, record label's back on.
15:09That's amazing.
15:10What changed your mind?
15:11Well, despite the lack of neurons firing in your boyfriend's brain, he can be very persuasive.
15:16Yep.
15:17He has his moments.
15:18I mean, it still feels a bit weird getting excited about things after Theo, but sure.
15:23I guess we just need to keep paying our respects in the right way.
15:25Yeah.
15:27Right.
15:27Shall we go back to mine and crack on with those plans?
15:29I'm not going back to your place.
15:31Oh, no.
15:31You can.
15:32You can.
15:32I'm freezing in the city having meetings with the medical board.
15:35Still.
15:35There you go.
15:35Look, no exes in sight.
15:36Now move it.
15:37You do realise I'm technically your boss again?
15:41Move it, boss man.
15:42That's better.
15:43Fair.
15:44Could you put us to bed tonight?
15:46Get out of here.
15:47I mean, that wasn't a no.
15:49I can't believe how good you were with him.
15:51You're so lovely and warm.
15:53You make it sound like I'm normally grumpy.
15:55Oh, that thought never crossed my mind.
15:58You know, to be honest, I missed out a bit when it came to my own grandkids.
16:03It's a shame you didn't get to spend more time with Ryder when he was growing up.
16:06Yeah, Ryder is my grandson.
16:08He works on a cruise ship now.
16:10I went down to see him the other day when he was in port.
16:13Oh, no.
16:13That's cool.
16:14Yeah, I was pretty lucky.
16:17I got to know him pretty well in the end.
16:20Being a grandparent, it's pretty special.
16:23I think you should lock Mr. Stewart in as your chief babysitter.
16:26Oh, get out of it, Marilyn.
16:28You'd pay the babysitter.
16:30Yeah, I would, actually.
16:31There's no reason we can't make that happen.
16:33Not that you paying me bit.
16:35Sorry, I had better go.
16:38Yeah, sure, love.
16:40Bye-bye, little mate.
16:43Bye.
16:43Hey.
16:56Hey.
16:56Hey.
16:58Sorry, I know you're working, but do you have a minute?
17:02Yes, but only because this paperwork is so boring.
17:05What's up?
17:06I've been thinking about our childhood.
17:09Oh, willingly depressing yourself.
17:10Why would you do that?
17:11It feels different now that I'm a mum.
17:14Changes your perspective.
17:16What you said actually got me thinking that on our side, we're the only family that Archie's got.
17:21Yeah, I meant that as a positive.
17:23And it is.
17:24There's extended family on Tarnia's side, but no grandparents.
17:28So?
17:29So the only grandparents that Archie has are our mum and dad.
17:34Would it be so bad if I tried to track them down?
17:37Because it's been such a long time, and for all we know, they could have changed.
17:46Okay.
17:47Um, did you smack your little head on the pavement today or something?
17:51I'm just trying to do what's best for my son.
17:53Yeah, what's best for your son is not to ruin his childhood the way that they ruined ours.
17:57But they don't even know that they're grandparents.
17:59So?
18:00I mean, it's not like they deserve to know.
18:02Well, I think they do deserve to know, and I have a right to contact...
18:04Okay, this is the dumbest conversation we've ever had.
18:06Well, this was a nice surprise.
18:27This family lunch and I do something.
18:29I needed some time with a friendly face.
18:32Dana and I aren't exactly seeing eye to eye at the moment.
18:35Ah.
18:36So, how's my boy been?
18:38Yeah, he's good.
18:39He's enjoyed being out and about.
18:41Al Stewart's his new best friend.
18:42Really?
18:43Yeah, that's surprising.
18:45Good to know, though.
18:46So, what's happened with your sister?
18:50I may have opened a giant can of worms, and Dana is impossible to reason with at the best of times.
18:56Go on.
18:58I'm thinking of tracking down our parents.
19:01Oh.
19:03And is that a problem?
19:04You know, you've never really spoken about them.
19:07Even around the wedding, you just said they wouldn't be coming.
19:09Mm-mm.
19:10It's complicated, but the more family art she has, the better, don't you think?
19:14Yeah, yeah.
19:15You know how important a family is to me.
19:16Yeah, I do.
19:18I just wish Dana would see it that way.
19:19I mean, she doesn't get to dictate whether our son meets his grandparents or not.
19:23So, why would Dana be so against the idea?
19:26Like I said, it's complicated.
19:30Let's order first.
19:31As you can see, the breakout room is right next to the studio, so whatever we fill it with needs to have the right vibe, not just a pinball machine.
19:40Gotcha.
19:41Wow, you still draw like a short-sighted five-year-old.
19:43Yeah, well, I was hoping we could use your limited imagination.
19:46Hey, just leave the breakout room to me, man.
19:47I'm all about the feng shui.
19:49Oh, yeah.
19:49Can you spell it?
19:50Right, that's the sound tech.
19:52He's on his way to the studio.
19:54Great.
19:54Let's go check out the future home of the country's number one record label.
19:58Oh, my sister has gone completely insane.
20:00You're not going to believe what she's thinking.
20:02Grammy, you might want to leave because my head's going to explode.
20:03I'll meet you in the car.
20:04Okay, I really don't want your head to explode, but can we make this quick?
20:08I've got a sound technician meeting in like a second or so.
20:11Oh, yeah, sure, sure, sure.
20:11Just answer me this.
20:13If you had toxic people in your life, what would you do?
20:16Cut them out.
20:16Exactly.
20:17Forever.
20:18You wouldn't invite them back in because Archie needs grandparents.
20:21Okay, I'm getting half a picture.
20:22Yeah, no, it's fine.
20:23Just go.
20:24I've not got long on my break anyway.
20:25Right, I'm guessing you told Harper how you felt.
20:27Yes, and then of course she didn't listen, and then now I have to change her mind because
20:31if I don't, it's going to be a disaster for everyone.
20:34I hear you.
20:35I do.
20:36But in order to get through to her, I think you need to be calm and rational.
20:39You know this.
20:40Yes.
20:40Okay.
20:41Right.
20:43Uh, let's pick this up later.
20:48I'm thinking of tracking down.
20:54Okay.
20:54Okay.
20:55Okay.
20:55Okay.
