Transcript

00:00Previously on Shortland Street.

00:01My straight friend is having not-so-straight interactions with me now and he's a bit panicky.

00:06Maeve, you need help. You're out of control.

00:09I'm not your mum, dear.

00:10You can't just shunt me off to rehab and forget about me.

00:18She's just like pure assumption, you know?

00:20If you've forgiven Dawn, then you have to forgive Vili.

00:23What? No, that's different.

00:25Have you spoken to him since he left?

00:26Well, no. He's got about 30 text messages and a thousand missed calls.

00:30See? He cares about you.

00:32Just give me some advice, man.

00:34You're barking up the wrong tree.

00:36Come on, man. I've been awful pushing her away.

00:38How do I make it up to her?

00:40You don't.

00:41Eh?

00:42Let her go.

00:43No, I don't want it.

00:44Well, you should.

00:46You think you know someone that you can trust them, but people don't change.

00:49They just lure you into a false sense of something or other

00:53and then jump on the nearest available body when the chance presents itself.

00:57Hey, don't talk about Dawn like that.

00:59You're better off without her.

01:04Oh.

01:07Hey, guys.

01:09Always knocks.

01:11Nice little sleep.

01:12You don't remember?

01:14They stayed with me and his last night.

01:16Do you want a coffee?

01:16Okay.

01:19Has Dawn left already?

01:23Um, why don't we all sit down?

01:25Well, what time is it?

01:26Because I've got to have a shower, go to work.

01:30You're in no set to work.

01:34Okay, what is this?

01:35Why are you here?

01:38To help.

01:40I'm your friend and I care about you.

01:42We all do.

01:43This is an intervention.

01:46Cool.

01:47For the last time, I don't have a problem.

01:50So you think what happened last night was normal?

01:53Well, look, if I said something or did something...

01:57You don't even know what we're talking about.

01:59That is how wasted you are.

02:01Let's all take a seat.

02:11Hey, Dawn.

02:12Hey, Logie.

02:14I mean, hi, Logan.

02:17What's a five-letter word with the second and the last letter being E?

02:20Um, heaps.

02:22I'm not saying heaps, although it almost works.

02:28Sorry, I'm not very good with the word games.

02:31It's okay.

02:33I'd better keep going.

02:35Leave.

02:36Okay.

02:37Yeah.

02:37No, no, that's the word.

02:39Leave.

02:40Oh, right.

02:41Right.

02:43All right, I'll see you later.

02:45I hope so.

02:47I mean, yeah, I'll see you later.

02:51Bye.

02:55Can you just stop for a second?

02:57I'm not interested.

02:57Please, just let me explain.

03:01It didn't mean anything.

03:03He told me he'd broken up his copy.

03:05The only real reason I did was because...

03:07Because he was there.

03:08Because you couldn't help yourself.

03:12Like I said, I'm not interested.

03:13Ah, sorry, I'm late.

03:15What did I miss?

03:16Just allocating this afternoon.

03:18Could you not put me with Dr. Grayson?

03:20Please, Esther, I've got a splitting headache and she's just making it worse.

03:23I'm happy with anything.

03:25Great.

03:26I will put you with Hendrix.

03:27That'd be perfect, actually.

03:29They're quite the dynamic duo, those two.

03:31Can you shut up?

03:32I'm in the trenches today, but the more the merrier.

03:36Sound good to you, Dr. Grayson.

03:38Fine.

03:38Okay, I don't know what this is, but we can do without it, thank you.

03:43I am not an alcoholic.

03:46We're not saying that you are.

03:48I am.

03:52What about you, Gia?

03:54You've barely said a thing.

03:56She made sure you didn't choke on your own vomit last night.

03:59Okay.

04:00I can't live in that bed.

04:02I didn't even drink that much.

04:04And how much is that these days?

04:05You're both addicts, yeah?

04:11You're a mum.

04:12So I get that you're all feeling a little bit sensitive, but you don't need to worry about me.

04:19Really.

04:20It's too late.

04:22Okay, so I went a bit hard last night.

04:24And clearly, I said some stuff that I didn't mean.

04:28Stupid stuff.

04:29But it was a one-off.

04:32Okay, I'll do better.

04:35I'll cut back.

04:36You've said that before.

04:37Yeah, and I've done it too.

04:41Sorry, it's hospital.

04:45I've got a meeting later today.

04:47Hey, how's it going over there?

04:48Good.

04:49I want you to come to it.

04:51To Narcotics Anonymous.

04:54Jesus Christ.

04:55It's just to sit in.

04:57See if any of it resonates with you.

04:59Because I know we can't make you go to AA if you don't want to.

05:02I don't.

05:03Sorry.

05:04I'm going to have to head in soon.

05:06Me too.

05:07You don't have to.

05:08I can't stay here.

05:09I won't.

05:11Cassie.

05:13We love you, mate.

05:14And we're not going to let you go through this on your own, okay?

05:18Why am I responsible for Drew shooting his mouth off?

05:21I'm talking to all three of you.

05:22This is ridiculous.

05:24And I wanted to know that you're okay.

05:26I'm fine.

05:27Okay.

05:28Because it is my responsibility to make sure that everyone works well together.

05:31And if you needed me to juggle things, I can try.

05:34They said I'm fine.

05:36Okay, good.

05:37Because like I said, we can't afford for the surgical department to fall to pieces right now.

05:40It won't.

05:41And if it does, it's got nothing to do with me.

05:44I don't think you understand.

05:46This drug is contaminated.

05:48It's already killed two people that we're aware of.

05:51But several other patients are critically ill.

05:54And you are not understanding the gravity of the...

05:57Absolutely useless.

05:59No luck with Lynch?

06:01They're denying everything.

06:03Bastards.

06:04Well, if we don't make February soon, then I'm going to make a press release.

06:07It is time critical.

06:08Yeah, just hang on.

06:09Let me keep trying.

06:11Oh, come on, Chris.

06:11We have to get ahead of this.

06:12You want patients to die?

06:14Just because the lynch can't be bothered getting up off their asses?

06:16Is this ever Harry?

06:17Because I know they're getting involved in the lynchers again.

06:19It'll bring it all up, but...

06:20If we antagonize them, especially in the press, they will find a way to hurt him.

06:27I don't know that.

06:28Well, I can't take that risk.

06:29Are you serious?

06:31You're talking about patients' lives versus Harry having to deal with full out of actions he chose to take.

06:36I know we need to fix this.

06:38Just give me a chance to do it discreetly.

06:42Please.

06:42I'll give you until this afternoon, but then I'm pulling the trigger.

06:47I mean it.

06:49I'll hold you to that.

06:53My kingdom for a competent doctor.

06:55Well, I would offer my services, but I'm assuming you're looking for an Emmett.

06:59He's obsessed with Bonnie, but I'd love a Gia or a Poppy if you see one.

07:03We'll send them your way.

07:04Room 5.

07:04Please say thank you.

07:06Oh, you're here.

07:07Yeah, I'm Bonnie's table.

07:09I'm still waiting on antifungals, but I figured I'd be more you see with you.

07:13Me.

07:14I'm with you all.

07:15I heard there's a situation in the rooms.

07:18No, well, yes, but you can't help.

07:20Are you sure?

07:20I'm sure.

07:25Hendrix.

07:27Is this you giving me space?

07:29Well, we have to work together, and I just, I wanted to say that I'm sorry.

07:35For?

07:35I should never have accused you.

07:38It was uncool.

07:42Okay.

07:43Thank you for saying that.

07:44Phil, Poppy would like to say something.

07:49Well, I'm assuming you'd like to apologise to her too.

07:52Yeah, sure.

07:53Of course.

07:54Um, I got it wrong.

07:57And I'm sorry about you guys the other night.

08:00It was...

08:01Yeah, I'm...

08:03I'm sorry.

08:04Let's just move on.

08:06Sure.

08:07Thanks, Phil.

08:08No problem.

08:09Sage was looking for you.

08:11Okay.

08:12Hey.

08:13Good on you for owning up to your mistakes.

08:15Might see you later.

08:18Sure.

08:21Slipped out of that one, didn't you?

08:23Excuse me?

08:24You know.

08:25That you're an awful person, and that probably deserves better.

08:28Yeah, I do.

08:29Didn't turn you off, though, did it?

08:37You're leaving too?

08:40Aedes is not under.

08:41Too many people are down.

08:42And this fungal meningitis outbreak isn't completely under control yet.

08:46Okay.

08:47Well, I promise that I am okay to work.

08:50Seriously.

08:51I don't know what was wrong with me yesterday.

08:53Alcohol withdrawal is my guess.

08:55The symptoms.

08:56They line up, don't they?

08:58The shakes, headache, how it all goes away the moment you have a drink.

09:03And it'll happen again.

09:04Maybe in a few hours.

09:05But I won't let that be during a recess.

09:08You're mad.

09:10I get it.

09:11No, you don't.

09:13Jay, I'm sorry.

09:14For what?

09:15Well, for all of it.

09:17For going home.

09:19For letting you down.

09:21And for being so out of it last night, I can't even remember what I said or what I did to hurt your feelings.

09:25You didn't hurt my feelings.

09:29Right.

09:29Okay.

09:30You scared me.

09:32And Cass and Knox.

09:34Yes, and I already feel bad about that.

09:36So you don't need to go in on me too.

09:37You think this is me having a go?

09:39No, that came out wrong.

09:41I won't live like this, mate.

09:42Not ever.

09:43Not again.

09:44And I promised myself I wouldn't watch another person I care about drown themselves either.

09:48Right, so what, now you want to move out?

09:51If you can't see that you've got a problem, then yeah.

09:55Yeah, I do.

09:59My mum wouldn't remember the things she said or did either.

10:03The states I would find her in.

10:05Sometimes she'd hurt herself.

10:07Or me.

10:09One-offs, she'd call them.

10:11But they never were, because she just kept drinking.

10:16Get help.

10:18Please.

10:18Get it, this outbreak should be front page news.

10:27I'm sure Lynch is paying the big bucks, keep it all hush-hush.

10:30You're not wrong.

10:31I haven't been able to talk to anyone in a high enough pay grade to take action yet.

10:36You're defending this, I see.

10:37No, of course not.

10:39I came in to check on Bonnie, then I'll be back on the phone.

10:43You having a laugh.

10:44Dad, don't.

10:45My daughter nearly died.

10:47And you're waiting on what, some kind of courtesy?

10:48It's not that simple.

10:50You're prepared to put people's lives at risk because you're worried about your murderer of a son.

10:54Your son who won't even deign to let you visit.

10:57Dad, Lynch is incredibly powerful.

10:59I don't give a damn.

11:01You should be ashamed of yourself, Warner.

11:04Hendricks and I are fine.

11:05You don't have to worry.

11:07I hear things.

11:08Dr. Creason.

11:08God, I said I'm sorry.

11:11In case she doesn't seem to care, I don't know why anyone else does.

11:13Do you know what I've always admired about you?

11:18My hair?

11:19Your hair is my hair.

11:20No.

11:21You're independent.

11:23You never seem to need anyone.

11:24All these manners to get by on your own.

11:26Even when you started school, you wouldn't let me walk you to class.

11:29I don't not need people.

11:32I needed Cleo.

11:33I know.

11:34My world just feels so much smaller without her.

11:38I honestly don't know what I'd do without Hendricks.

11:40You have me.

11:42And you have all your other wonderful friends who care about you and love you and think you're spectacular.

11:48Lean on them.

11:51I don't want to be a burden.

11:52You're not.

11:55Your world is never going to be the same again.

11:59But it doesn't have to be small.

12:04So, I've done a sweep of the rooms and wait times down about five hours.

12:08Do you think people somehow got winded the contaminated drugs in this group room?

12:12I hope not.

12:13Where do you need me?

12:14Uh, shortness of breath.

12:15Care for one.

12:16Hey, you had a break?

12:16Want to grab a kite?

12:17I've already eaten.

12:19Is everything okay?

12:20Yeah, right as rain.

12:23Yeah, sure it is.

12:24What is that supposed to mean?

12:25Nothing.

12:26You're just obviously in one of your moods, so...

12:28Wow.

12:29Look, we're all stressed.

12:29It's been a big week.

12:30I just don't want any weird vibes.

12:31Really?

12:32You're going to talk to me about weird vibes?

12:34What's that supposed to mean?

12:35Look, mana, whatever this is that you're trying to come to terms with, you need to leave me out of it.

12:39You need to tell Bonnie because it's not fair on her.

12:41What are you saying?

12:43I am your friend.

12:44Not some random guy that you can just test your sexuality out on, okay?

12:47If you can't even name it, then don't bring me into it.

12:49You've got it all wrong.

12:50I'm not gay.

12:52Whatever.

12:52Just don't hurt Bonnie, okay?

12:57Hey, you okay?

12:59Damn, it really went off at you.

13:01Yeah, with good reason.

13:02I get it.

13:03You're trying to protect your boy, and I'd probably do the same.

13:07Clock's ticking, Chris.

13:08Lynch update.

13:09They're still denying everything.

13:11Okay, well then I'm...

13:12I know.

13:13I'm organising a press conference as we speak.

13:15Great.

13:16Oh, I need to take this, but can you send me an update?

13:21So you're not worried about Harry anymore?

13:23I'm more worried than ever.

13:25But Emmett's right.

13:26I can't put other people's lives at risk just to save his.

13:32Well, moving to Wellington is this big, exciting thing.

13:36But it's also really terrifying.

13:39I've just...

13:39I've been really worried that I might be tempted to use when I'm down here, but I guess the longer I'm up.

13:45Hi, everyone.

13:46Um...

13:47Sorry, I'm a bit late.

13:51It's okay.

13:52I'm glad that you're here.

13:54Oh, I just...

13:55Yeah.

13:55You were saying.

13:59Right.

14:01Well, lately, it's been...

14:04It's been really hard watching someone that I love go down a similar path.

14:08Feeling like there's nothing I can do to stop it.

14:11Or to help.

14:13It's just really been there for me.

14:16So...

14:16Even though I don't want to use, and I have all these reasons not to,

14:21and so much to look forward to, I...

14:23I guess it's just always on my mind.

14:25Hey, is this room ready?

14:34We've got...

14:36You all right?

14:38Yeah.

14:39Yeah, I'm fine.

14:40I'm...

14:40I just...

14:42Crap, it's not Bonnie, is it?

14:43No, she's fine.

14:45Well, I haven't been up to see her, but I hope she's fine.

14:49Okay, well, why don't you go now?

14:53I can't.

14:55I'll show you again.

14:55I'll cover for you.

14:59Hey.

15:01Talk to me.

15:03Are you feeling a bit scared?

15:07Yeah.

15:07You're not going to lose her.

15:11It's going to get better.

15:12Yeah, but I'm not right for her.

15:15What?

15:15Why?

15:18I have these...

15:20These feelings.

15:21This isn't about me again, is it?

15:28We do keep missing each other, don't we?

15:30I suppose.

15:32Maybe we would have been good together, but...

15:34I guess the timing was just always off.

15:37It doesn't have to be.

15:40Look, I don't really know what's going on, but it's been pretty overwhelming down here later.

15:46Whoa!

15:46What the hell?

15:48I'm sorry.

15:49I'm really sorry.

15:50I was just...

15:50I'm just confused.

15:53Poppy.

15:53Poppy, wait.

15:55Poppy, wait, please.

15:56What the hell is wrong with you?

15:58Sorry, I wasn't thinking.

15:59What's going on?

16:00What is this ruckus?

16:01He tried to kiss me.

16:02Poppy, it was a mistake.

16:04You tried to kiss him.

16:06No, I...

16:07I was in the hospital.

16:08You did it dirty.

16:09You had to stop.

16:11Stop!

16:22Coming in?

16:23I appreciate the exclusive.

16:25Do we stop?

16:26Yeah.

16:27You're staying?

16:28Of course.

16:29Me too.

16:29Gotta keep things on track.

16:31No pesky soundbites.

16:32Right, Mandy?

16:33Right.

16:35Okay, so...

16:37Do you have some information about some compromised medication?

16:41It's recently come to our attention that a drug used to treat hypertension has become contaminated

16:47with fungal spores.

16:48Well, that sounds dangerous.

16:49It is.

16:50It's caused some of our patients to develop fungal meningitis.

16:53Well, what caused the outbreak?

16:55Was it poor infection control?

16:57Not at all.

16:57We believe the contamination occurred, unbeknownst to the manufacturer, during the production process.

17:03So...

17:04Hey, sorry.

17:05I've got to go.

17:05So, who's the manufacturer?

17:09Since we have been unable to reach their team to discuss the problem fully, I'm not going

17:15to disclose their name at this stage.

17:17What about the patients, who could unknowingly be putting themselves in danger?

17:22Don't you have a duty to protect them?

17:26Someone said Emmett hit you.

17:28No, he didn't hit me.

17:30Bloody looks like it.

17:31What happened?

17:32Just screwed things up.

17:34Something to do with Bonnie?

17:38Yeah.

17:38She does seem to be better than me.

17:43What's wrong with me?

17:45Nothing's wrong with you.

17:47No, no, wait.

17:51What are you doing here?

17:52Not working.

17:54But, um...

17:55I heard what went down between Mona and Emmett.

17:57So you don't want me jumping in?

17:59Are you sure you could?

18:00Well, Maeve came to my meeting.

18:02Oh, okay.

18:04Look, I...

18:05I heard you.

18:06Both of you.

18:07I don't quite know how I got here, or what the answer is, but I'm...

18:12I really hate that I'm hurting you.

18:17And you...

18:17You think going to these meetings could help?

18:21Honestly, I'm...

18:22I'm not...

18:23Sure.

18:25It was quite full on.

18:26Well, AA won't be as intense as you know.

18:28Look, anything that works for you, Maeve.

18:31Thanks.

18:31I will try anything.

18:34Good.

18:37Crap.

18:38Multiple incoming casualties.

18:40Bleach has collapsed at a Christmas show.

18:42Well, my telephone stands.

18:45Okay.

18:46Put your scraps on, then.

18:53There you are.

18:55Been looking for you.

18:57Haven't you found me?

18:59I've been worried about you.

19:01Okay.

19:03Are you sure?

19:05No.

19:07I'm mad.

19:08At Mana.

19:08What the actual hell?

19:10Yeah, what happened there?

19:13He just tried to kiss me.

19:15Out of nowhere.

19:17These things don't really just happen out of nowhere, though, do they?

19:21Sorry?

19:22I mean, there must have been something that made Mana think you were keen for him to kiss you.

19:26At work.

19:27I didn't do anything.

19:30Come on, Poppy.

19:31You've been feeling insecure, accusing me and Phil of messing around.

19:35You wanted to hurt me.

19:37He was upset at Bonnie.

19:40Okay, we were just talking.

19:42I was just being there for him.

19:44So he was confiding in you?

19:46Yeah.

19:48And there wasn't the tiniest part of you that felt flattered?

19:50No.

19:53Look, I don't know.

19:54It wasn't like that.

19:55Hey, hey.

19:56It is okay.

19:57I'm not perfect.

20:00You have so much power to hurt me.

20:03I would never.

20:08It's just scary sometimes, you know?

20:12When you don't think of my feelings.

20:17I just love you so much.

20:18I'm sorry.

20:23I don't...

20:24I don't know what's going on with me.

20:26Come here.

20:29It's okay.

20:30I forgive you.

20:30I'm sorry, Dr. Warner, but I think we need to hold this drug company to account.

20:40And we will, in due course.

20:42Well, I don't think that's good enough.

20:44New Zealanders put their lives in the hands of these drug companies every single day.

20:49And if their products are killing people, then...

20:51The drug was manufactured by Lynch Pharmaceuticals.

20:54Two people are dead, and they are responsible.

20:57The same Lynch Pharmaceuticals that made...

20:59It's a class gym.

21:00We have reached out to them.

21:02They refuse to take accountability.

21:04And Shortland Street will play no part in protecting them.

21:06Wasn't your son, Harry Warner, convicted of killing Max Lynch?

21:09That's not relevant.

21:11This hospital has quite the sordid history with that family.

21:16And now you're publicly condemning them.

21:18Not them, the business.

21:20Esther, just stop.

21:23I am not going to apologise.

21:25I don't care.

21:26You assaulted a colleague.

21:28Emmett, what were you thinking?

21:30You put a move on Poppy.

21:33I'd be going to investigate that, too.

21:34Now, I'm going upstairs to talk to Bonnie before someone else does.

21:37Wait, Emmett, you...

21:38Thank you for backing me up.

21:43Well, who's upset, Mom?

21:44Bonnie, I'm upset.

21:45Should I go start a brawl in the middle of ED?

21:47Hello?

21:48Hello?

21:49What was this on?

21:51Oh, my God.

21:51What the hell is that thing?

21:53Attention, Dawn Robinson.

21:56Attention, Dawn Robinson.

21:58Hogan?

22:00Dawny, I love you.

22:01You're the best.

22:04You're the best person I know, can't you?

22:06The kindest, the biggest heart.

22:09And you're the best women's act I've ever seen on a level.

22:13I know I've been a real egg recently, but...

22:16I just have an important question to ask you.

22:18He's not going to propose, does he?

22:20Jeez, Logan.

22:21Will you be my girl again?

22:27Yes.

22:31Yeah, well, I can't really hear your answer.

22:34Yes, I said yes!

22:37Jeez, what are you saying?

22:39Oh, for God's sake.

22:41Get going!
