00:00Neighbours
00:02Everybody needs good neighbours
00:06With a little understanding
00:10You can find the perfect blend
00:15Neighbours
00:18Neighbours
00:20Should be there for one another
00:24That's when good neighbours become good friends
00:36It's finished. I resigned.
00:39Yeah, what happened?
00:41It was exactly the way you said it would be.
00:44All machines and computers, they beep at you, they flashlights at you.
00:49I couldn't make anything work.
00:52I wrecked one of them.
00:55That was Clive's fault. You shouldn't have sent you there in the first place.
00:58Oh, it wasn't Clive's fault. It's me.
01:01I'm useless, Shane. I'm totally useless.
01:11Oh, look at me carrying on. I'm sorry, Shane.
01:14There's no need to apologise, Aunty Madge.
01:17Anyone a crack under the pressure you've been under lately.
01:19There's still no excuse.
01:21It's their loss, that's what I reckon.
01:23If they don't want you, there's plenty of other companies that will.
01:27I still don't think I'll be asking for a reference.
01:32You know, when it comes to the crunch, I think that we're very similar.
01:37Sorry?
01:38Well, you've been feeling out of things lately and a lot less successful than you'd like to be.
01:45But basically, it's a lack of higher education.
01:48Oh, you might have too many initials after your name, Aunty Madge, but you know all about people.
01:53Oh, thank you.
01:55And those computers, well, are Danny's bags, not ours.
01:58But it wouldn't do any harm to know more about them.
02:01They do have courses for adults, you know.
02:03Yeah, but...
02:04Adult education, that sort of thing, just a minute.
02:06Oh, right, right.
02:07They have amazing courses.
02:09They teach me languages and maths and all sorts of things.
02:13Who knows?
02:14I might even find out how to work one of those wretched computers.
02:20Ah.
02:22There we are, I thought so.
02:23There's a branch right here in Aaronsborough.
02:25I'm going to give them a call in the morning.
02:28You should have been there, Madge.
02:30It was poetry.
02:31Even you would have appreciated.
02:33Like a goldfish out of water, she was.
02:35Gay.
02:36Gay.
02:37No doubt he'll let us in on the joke eventually.
02:39Mrs Mangle, of course.
02:41Oh, Clive really gave it to her.
02:43She won't be bothering Daphne again in a hurry, let me tell you.
02:46You're concerned about Daphne?
02:47I don't believe it.
02:48Oh, yeah, we'd talk things out a bit.
02:51As for old bucket mouth Mangle, well, she's certainly got a bit of her own medicine back, let me tell you.
02:58What's all this about?
03:00I am going to go to night school, Tom.
03:03Oh, so the job fell through, did it?
03:04I told you, Madge, it wasn't going to be easy.
03:07Leave her alone.
03:08She doesn't need it.
03:09Oh, I suppose you'd be the expert, would you?
03:13Well, maybe I am.
03:14Maybe I also know how it feels to fail.
03:17Perhaps if I had stayed at school instead of chucking it in to become a diver, I wouldn't be in the mess I'm in now.
03:23Maybe if I took a leaf out of the old man's book and became more selfish, then I'd be a damn sight happier than I am now.
03:29Well, Daphne, looks like we're going to have to get the repairman in again.
03:34Oh, no hurry.
03:35At least I can hear myself think again.
03:38How's the posts are coming along?
03:40Nice hunt.
03:41Today, Mrs. Mangle, tomorrow, who knows?
03:43Clive.
03:44Businessmen, politicians.
03:45Lawyers, you'll need them for when you get sued.
03:47Rock stars who don't want to give interviews.
03:48Dentists, when you get your teeth knocked out.
03:51Discretion, Clive, and one step at a time.
03:53What are you, a friend or a fortune cookie?
03:56There he is.
03:57Oh, my kind of a guy.
03:58Everybody's talking about you, mate, the whole school.
04:00I reckon we ought to go out tonight and really celebrate.
04:02Great idea.
04:03What do you say, Mike?
04:04Did we miss something?
04:06Well, hasn't he told you?
04:07Mike.
04:08Oh, come on.
04:09If I was you, I'd be telling the whole world.
04:10Mike won the school diving comp today off the three metre board and the tower.
04:14Oh, why didn't you tell us?
04:16It's terrific news.
04:17Show them what you want.
04:18Come on.
04:19Go on.
04:20It's just a dumb old tree.
04:23Great.
04:24It's superb.
04:25I wish we'd known.
04:26It'll look even better when it's polished.
04:27I've got some stuff in the kitchen.
04:28Come on.
04:33Here we are.
04:34It's just light, Mike.
04:35If we'd known, we would have been there.
04:37Tried to, at least.
04:38Well, you know what he's like.
04:39He gets embarrassed.
04:40But worst of all were the other kids.
04:42I mean, they all had their parents there cheering them on,
04:44and Mike didn't have anyone.
04:45Oh.
04:46Shane, could I have a word?
04:49Take a seat, son.
04:58Boy, this is not going to be easy, but, uh,
05:01as your father's not here, I thought that we should, uh,
05:04try and clear the air a bit about what's been going on around here.
05:08Forget it, Uncle Tom.
05:09I'll be all right.
05:10No, no, no.
05:11You've been having a hard time.
05:13And you reckon you got a bit of a gripe.
05:15So let's talk it out.
05:17Shane?
05:20It's too late.
05:22It's never too late.
05:24Especially with family.
05:26It's just...
05:28Well, look at me.
05:29What am I, hm?
05:30Someone who could have gone to the Olympics.
05:32And you would have won, too.
05:33Your father was right about that.
05:35Yeah, but I didn't get there.
05:36The reason why, that's not even important.
05:38The fact is, that's all I've ever aimed for.
05:41That's all you and your father ever aimed for.
05:43I know that.
05:44So what am I now?
05:46Part-time gardener, part-time chauffeur.
05:49Big deal.
05:50What's that?
05:51In other words, you're saying that's not good enough.
05:53Yeah, too right.
05:54That's nowhere near good enough.
05:56I mean, I gotta do better than that.
05:57I am better than that.
05:58Well, then it's simple.
06:01Any change for the better starts with you, Shane.
06:04You can do it, mate.
06:07It's simple.
06:08All you have to do is say yes.
06:10I just want to show you I'm not still miffed about the weekend.
06:13Why is it I get the feeling I'm letting myself in for something?
06:16A quiet dinner for two at Lassiter's.
06:19That's two, the number that comes from...
06:21I can hear you miles away.
06:26Lucy tells me congratulations are in order, mate.
06:29Thanks, Mrs. Daniels.
06:30It was great.
06:31What are you going to do to celebrate?
06:32Well, we could party on the beach, you know, have a picnic.
06:34Like, well...
06:35Any better ideas?
06:36Sure, I might pick somewhere, anywhere you like.
06:38What's that place down the road?
06:39Lassiter's?
06:40Oh, great idea.
06:41Why don't we all go to the disco then?
06:42Yeah.
06:43Oh, we're going there.
06:44We can meet up with you afterwards.
06:45Oh, great.
06:46Oh, hang on a second, Zoe.
06:47Well, we're having dinner first, but we can meet up with you later.
06:49At the disco?
06:50Yeah, I feel like a night out.
06:51What's happening?
06:52What are you saying, Mike?
06:53Well, it's a bit expensive, isn't it?
06:54It's our treat and you can't say no or I'll break your arm.
06:57Well, I guess it's Lassiter's thing.
06:58I think that we should leave our plans just as they were.
07:01Oh, come on, Jim.
07:02It'll be fun.
07:03It's only a disco and there'll be lots of...
07:05I'm sorry.
07:07Dinner then straight home, okay?
07:10Fine.
07:17Is your fish all right?
07:19Yes.
07:20It's quiet in here, you know.
07:23Yeah.
07:27Listen, about before the end of the weekend, I can't deny that I have a daughter or that
07:36I'm the age that I...
07:37It's okay, really.
07:38But you'd rather be at the disco.
07:40I shouldn't have put you in that position.
07:42And I understand about Lucy.
07:43She's...
07:44She's confused.
07:45She ruined the weekend.
07:47Well, there'll be others.
07:49Jim, I care about you.
07:51You have a family.
07:52That's something I've got to come to terms with.
07:55It's my problem, not yours.
07:56You shouldn't have to come to terms with anything.
07:58I want to.
08:01Like I said, there's plenty of time.
08:02I'm not in any hurry.
08:03Well, I'll have kids of your own one of these days.
08:07Not necessarily.
08:08Jim, we need time together.
08:11I mean, I like kids, but they're a long way off.
08:15And I'd like to be married first.
08:18Yeah.
08:19Eventually.
08:20Yes.
08:21You don't sound too keen.
08:22Well, it's just that you're a bit ahead of me, that's all.
08:25I'm not ready to get married again yet.
08:28And as far as kids are concerned, well, I've already had four.
08:32Zoe, I like you a lot.
08:38Oh, hell, this sounds so selfish.
08:48At least it's honest.
08:51Guess it is.
08:54Daphne, come quick.
08:57I think he's dead.
08:59I stomp past his room with these on.
09:02I even slammed the bathroom door twice.
09:05You mean Mike's asleep?
09:06I think so.
09:07His door's shut.
09:08And you made me drop bacon and eggs into the sink just to get a reaction.
09:11What can I tell you?
09:12I'm a crazy guy.
09:13Clive Gibbons.
09:14No, no, no, seriously.
09:15When he does wake up, I think we should talk to him.
09:16I feel awful about yesterday.
09:17Oh.
09:18Well, I don't feel too crash-hot about today.
09:20Hi, guys.
09:21Mike must still be asleep.
09:22Is he okay?
09:23Well, shouldn't he be?
09:24Well, I don't feel too crash-hot about today.
09:26Hi, guys.
09:27Mike must still be asleep.
09:28Is he okay?
09:29Well, shouldn't he be?
09:30Well, I don't know.
09:31I don't know.
09:32I don't know.
09:33I don't know.
09:34Well, he walked out of the disco last night.
09:37Oh, what happened?
09:38We had a disagreement.
09:40Charlene was stirring up trouble.
09:42Come on, the facts, Nicky.
09:43What time was this?
09:44He's not there.
09:45Oh, fabulous.
09:47What do you think you're doing?
09:49It's our responsibility.
09:50So?
09:51So he could be in trouble.
09:52First, we don't know that.
09:54Second, he's probably just gone somewhere to cool off.
09:56Calling the police won't help.
09:57He'll come home when he's ready.
09:59And when he does, we behave like responsible surrogate parents and talk to him.
10:03And then we kill him.
10:06Oh, Mike.
10:07You do that again and I will strangle you.
10:10I'm sorry.
10:11It was too late to call.
10:12Well, where have you been, Mike?
10:13You seemed really upset when you left last night.
10:15I've been really worried.
10:16Well?
10:17Look, I went to a mate's place and crashed on the couch.
10:20Oh, yeah?
10:21What type of mate?
10:22Boy or girl?
10:23Scott.
10:24Look, if you really must know, it was a guy from school.
10:26I'm late enough, it is.
10:32As we say in the business, Mrs Mitchell, the only thing nicer than the furniture we trade is the people we buy it from.
10:39Thank you very much.
10:40And you too, lovely lady.
10:43Yes, such nice pieces need a good home.
10:53Until next time.
10:55Bye-bye.
10:56There's only one reason a guy clams up like that.
10:58Guilt.
10:59It's none of your business, Lennon.
11:00There's that little green monster again.
11:01Give it a rest, Lennie.
11:02Look, I left because I had enough, okay?
11:03I had stuff on my mind and I just didn't want to be there.
11:04Is it anything I said, Mike?
11:05Give me a break.
11:06Look, it was nothing anybody said.
11:07What's the news satisfied?
11:08What did I do?
11:09Mike, we're going to work on an assignment in the library together today.
11:11Yeah, well, you're going to have to find somebody else, aren't you?
11:13Mike, what have I done?
11:14Nothing.
11:15You haven't done a thing, okay?
11:16You haven't done a thing, okay?
11:17I don't know.
11:19No.
11:20I don't know.
11:22That is something else.
11:23I don't know.
11:24You haven't done a thing, okay?
11:26No.
11:27No.
11:28I don't know what you said.
11:29No.
11:30No.
11:31I don't know.
11:32I don't know.
11:33nothing you haven't done a thing okay you just had to push it didn't you all
11:40last night and this morning now look what's happened I just wish you'd pack
11:44up your bags and go back where you came from
11:51you sure you know what you're doing easy there's a blue wire and a green wire and
11:57a red wire and all I have to do is I did it you did I actually did it but I agree
12:04with your silence is golden thanks Clive no worries and don't you two try that at
12:08home either now can we talk about Mike that's the original reason you came I
12:13felt dreadful about yesterday yeah if I'd run a swimming carnival I'd expect to be
12:17on the front cover of Time and Newsweek yeah no one was there except for the
12:20kids well then we make it up to him how I've been so preoccupied with Shane
12:24lately that'll sort itself out I doubt it maybe in time you know we discussed
12:30it like mature adults I don't think I'll regret the decision could be time you
12:34made some new friends hmm why not new haircut new clothes new start who am I
12:40kidding that's a bit radical maybe you could find someone closer to home you
12:45mean like days oh no that relationships dead and buried I mean he's a nice guy
12:50but I've been down that road okay okay I'm sorry I spoke anyway we've got a more
12:57immediate problem on our hands Mike unless we put a beeper in his shoe and
13:02follow the signal I don't think we should let him go walk about at night
13:05absolutely then again what do we do
13:08rules he's a guest in our house we laid out some rules he's got to tell us where
13:15he's going who he'll be with and what time he'll be back stay like 17 it's for
13:18his own good I know I know and it'll prove we care that's right he's gonna
13:23hate us yep now take young Danny things aren't easy for him he's gonna need a lot
13:31of personal attention he takes after Max in that regard and Shane he's got a chip on
13:36his shoulder the size of flamin Tasmania that's why I'm gonna need your help
13:41Helen I mean if Madge goes running off on one of them flamin courses all hell's
13:46gonna break loose in that family I reckon it's all in magazines she's been

14:03cook she keeps a very neat house aside from getting herself a fella what more
