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