03:40Can you tell me, are you allergic to anything?
03:44Do you know if she's allergic to any medications?
03:47Does she live with her parents?
03:49Uh, yeah, um...
03:51Can you call them?
03:53I don't know their number.
03:54Use her phone.
03:55What does she call her mum?
04:06I'll do it.
04:06Oh, easy, tiger.
04:32Okay, okay, just hang on there, buddy.

05:07No!
05:08No!
05:09We're not even open yet.
05:10You are in your costume.
05:11You should have your purse on your person
05:12from the moment you're dressed.
05:14My purse on my person?
05:16Is that a thing?
05:20Come on, Nicole.
05:23Mrs. Hollyoak.
05:24The tap and pay machine is right here.
05:27For visitors.
05:28You break the illusion if you have a phone.
05:31Don't you agree, Mr. Winterton?
05:34Oh, I mean, um...
05:36I don't actually mind if it's before anyone's here.
05:39No, Daz.
05:41Mr. Winterton.
05:42She's right.
05:44Rules are rules.
05:46You just...
05:47You're so good at being a character,
05:50like, from the moment you come in.
05:53Hmm.
05:54It's no wonder that the office is using you
05:55in the new marketing campaign.
05:59They are not.
06:01I saw the mock-ups on Sharon's computer.
06:03I'll go get some money.
06:05For goodness sake, just...
06:07quickly.
06:09You sure?
06:09Yes.
06:10That's very kind of you, Mrs. Hollyoak.
06:13This is the last time.
06:15Definitely the last time.
06:17Sorry.
06:18Email in the way.
06:19Do you want your back?
06:24If this is about me forgetting Astrid's library book, I know,
06:40but I got her to calm down with an old fruit tingle I found in my bag.
06:43Do we have fenugreek seeds?
06:44What of fenugreek?
06:45What of fenugreek?
06:46What did you say?
06:47Fenugreek.
06:48They're in this recipe I'm looking at.
06:51I don't think Blake's would stock them, would they?
06:53I don't even know what they are.
06:54This recipe says start three days early.
06:56I'm already one day short.
06:57Well, then just cook something else.
07:00How does Lillian invite people to dinner and we end up hosting?
07:05Because she's a massive pain in our arse and you're the best cook.
07:11Just don't try and be too fancy.
07:12I'm not being too fancy.
07:14I'm just, I mean, what do you cook for the person who has your friend's heart?
07:18Anything.
07:19Not awful.
07:20Maybe she'd rock at old school and do lasagna.
07:24Or is that too carny?
07:26Time's cookbook has a keto one that looks awful.
07:35Lasagna's perfect.
07:36How are you not freaked out by all of this?
07:40I am.
07:42Of course I am.
07:43I'm not sure I can do it.
07:44And Lillian said he had that weird reaction.
07:46Honey, I know this is confronting, but something's going on because she wrote that victim impact
07:53statement.
07:54Yeah.
07:57You're smart.
07:58And you're pretty.
08:00Love you.
08:03Are you calling to cancel?
08:04I've got tech collectors.
08:05Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
08:06Huh?
08:07Can you come?
08:08Where are you?
08:09The bike's me.
08:10In a dray.
08:11What's a dray?
08:22This is not for the general public.
08:31Jesus.
08:32You're on probation here, remember?
08:34Janet's making me pay for the funeral.
08:36This is from a debt collector.
08:38They say I've got 30 days to pay.
08:43Debt collector?
08:44I didn't even know they were a real thing.
08:46So were you sent other invoices?
08:48I don't know.
08:49I don't know.
08:51I didn't think they were for me.
08:55I just, I thought that I'd just been copied in.
08:58Well, then she must have got this debt notice as well.
09:01But it's only got my name on it.
09:03$35,000.
09:04$35,000?
09:06How do you spend $35,000 on a funeral?
09:12She went on top of the range.
09:14The coffin was the flowers.
09:18Right, exactly.
09:19So Ashtra's mum organised the funeral.
09:21Why are you getting the bill?
09:23She's punishing me.
09:24I didn't, I didn't know what I was doing.
09:29I just, I just rang the funeral place.
09:33And my signature is on the contract.
09:37She made me sign.
09:39I forgot.
09:40She kept making such a fuss of me being next of kin.
09:45She kept calling me the decision maker.
09:47I'm going to call her.
09:54No, she's blocked my number.
09:56She blocked all of us, remember?
09:59I have to contest it.
10:02Can you maybe talk to Jack or something?
10:04Ow!
10:06Fucking hell, that hurt.
10:08You're supposed to suck it.
10:11Can you maybe just see if there's something legal we can do?
10:14I don't know, like signing under duress or some shit.
10:17Okay, I know this is not the best option,
10:21but would you consider asking your mum or dad to help pay for it?
10:26I'm not that desperate.
10:27But you might.
10:28Well, I'm not.
10:30Okay.
10:34Send me any documents you can find.
10:38Do you still want to go ahead with the dinner?
10:50Me too, I'm pumped.
10:52Liar.
10:52Jesus.
11:06Well, you won't tell me how long we're going for, so...
11:09Well, it's not a month.
11:11Look, I just want to leave the window open in case Lillian needs more time.
11:15For what?
11:16You know we don't leave till Thursday, right?
11:20No, Andrew, I've completely lost my mind and all understanding of days of the week.
11:25What's the dress code for dinner?
11:27I don't think there is one.
11:29What about that dress?
11:31That's nice.
11:32No.
11:33It's too good.
11:35It's very expensive.
11:37I don't want to be too rich and entitled.
11:41We are rich and entitled.
11:43Yes, I know.
11:44But I don't want to rub their faces in it.
11:47How is dressing nicely?
11:48I would really rather not be going.
11:50Okay, hang on.
11:51You're the one that encouraged me to reach out to her.
11:54Yes, and you did that.
11:55I mean, what else is there left to say?
11:57Well, now we're meeting the others.
11:59Are you sure she's not still angry?
12:02No, I told you.
12:04Explain what happened.
12:06Now it just feels like we're overcompensating.
12:09How could we overcompensate?
12:11How's that even possible?
12:19I just don't know how I'm going to sit opposite this family.
12:24When they've lost so much.
12:25I think the least we could do is sit opposite them.
12:32I don't know how much.
12:38I don't know.
12:44I don't know.
12:53I don't know.
12:54Hey, Lillian!
13:14Hey, Rick.
13:14Sorry, can I just have a quick word?
13:19Sorry, I can't leave the kids.
13:22Hey, come on.
13:24Keep the water in the lake.
13:26You're just creating a sleep hazard.
13:29Bloody goose.
13:31You okay?
13:33I hurt my teeth.
13:35It's no good.
13:36I just need a Panadol.
13:37I won't keep you.
13:39For long.
13:40I won't keep you for long.
13:42So, we're getting two new skulls,
13:45which is exciting.
13:46The club's growing.
13:47It means we need to build new racks on the north wall.
13:50But, um, at the moment, um,
13:55Ash's things are still there.
13:58What?
14:00His bike, canoe, skis.
14:05I told him he could store them all there,
14:07which was totally fine.
14:08Absolutely no problem at all.
14:10But now we need to...
14:11Will you talk about this tomorrow?
14:13Yeah, sure.
14:14No dramas.
14:15If we can look at moving on before the end of the war, we...
14:17Yeah, okay, cool.
14:19Speak soon.
14:20Let's go.
14:50So, Lillian, what's happened is you have chipped Mr. Filling, who lives up in Premolar
15:19Avenue. But Lillian, that's not the really bad news. The tooth is rotten underneath so we're
15:26going to have to perform what we call a root canal. How much is that going to cost? I could
15:31do that for you for $1,800. Lillian, that's a very competitive price. I don't think you'll
15:38find anyone that can do it any cheaper.
15:49I'm happy to have you.
15:56I'm happy to have you.
16:03I'm happy to have you.
16:07Lillia?
16:20There's our girl.
16:22Oh, I thought that was you.
16:27Hey, sorry for landing on you like this.
16:30Oh, don't be ridiculous.
16:32Oh, you know he loves a root canal.
16:34Ooh.
16:35Oh, Jesus, Dad.
16:37Oh, just ignore him.
16:38You know, he's much gentler than I am.
16:40Oh, we're so glad you're home.
16:50Okay, we're back in ten minutes, so don't go anywhere.
16:53Yeah?
16:58That's got a bit cold.
16:59Yeah, sorry, we ran over.
17:01Is it oat?
17:02Oat? Since when do you drink oat?
17:03I told you, I've read that article about this.
17:06That's right, yeah, it's oat.
17:07Yeah, crap.
17:11Okay.
17:12So, I had a look at the contracts.
17:15I have a guy in Melbourne that I've used before for forgery stuff.
17:18I can get it turned around pretty quickly.
17:19Forgery?
17:20There's no forgery.
17:21Oh, so that is Lillian's signature.
17:25Yeah.
17:25Yeah.
17:26But she didn't mean to sign.
17:28So she didn't know she was signing the contracts for the funeral arrangements?
17:32No.
17:33Well, yeah, but she didn't know that it meant she'd have to pay for it.
17:36So why did she think she was signing it?
17:37Just because, you know.
17:40Death stuff?
17:41Yeah.
17:42Death stuff's not really a defence in there.
17:44Tanya!
17:45Absolutely not!
17:46Sorry, mate, we've got to go.
17:48Hey, you are not supposed to be talking to him.
17:50What do I tell Lillian?
17:52Uh, just tell her that that's all the free legal advice her friend has time to give.
17:56That latte cost five bucks.
17:58That latte was from a cow.
18:01Just tell her that, uh, she would have to prove that she was coerced into signing it to have any chance of a lawsuit.
18:07Yeah?
18:08Okay.
18:09Hey!
18:10No!
18:11No!
18:11You away!
18:12You in here!
18:15So you were renovating in Barefeet?
18:18No.
18:19I had thongs on.
18:21Oh.
18:22Cool.
18:23Mary?
18:28Give him five of Morph.
18:30I'll be back in a sec.
18:32Did you hear that?
18:33He had thongs on.
18:34I need to talk to you about the case.
18:37I have to stitch that idiot's foot back together.
18:40Jordan Bancroft wants to change his plea to not guilty.
18:50He already pleaded guilty.
18:52Apparently the reality of spending ten years in prison just hit him.
18:55But he did it.
18:56I saw him do it.
18:57He's got a new lawyer who's trying to say that Jordan was pressured to plead guilty at the committal hearing.
19:02Pressured?
19:03How?
19:03I don't know.
19:04I don't know.
19:04He was assigned a wet-behind-the-ear solicitor or something who didn't understand that Jordan was actually acting in self-defence.
19:10What the fuck?
19:11It's complete bullshit.
19:12It is.
19:13That's just...
19:14Listen.
19:15It's extremely hard to change a plea.
19:17Is it?
19:19It should be.
19:19In my view, it's very unlikely.
19:21Right.
19:21Because it was all set.
19:22But him asking might delay things a bit.
19:24What would it mean if he got it changed?
19:34Well, it would go to trial.
19:36And you would be a witness.
19:43What about the girlfriend?
19:44What's she saying?
19:46I saw her yesterday morning.
19:48She's back at school.
19:49Yeah, not sure.
19:50I wanted to talk to you first.
19:56Are you okay?
19:57Yeah.
19:59Yeah, of course.
20:00You call me if you need me.
20:08Yeah.
20:11And I'll let Lillian know.
20:12Hey.
20:40Crap news.
20:40I'm sorry.
20:41Jack said the only way to sue is to prove that you were coerced into signing.
20:45I don't know how you proved that.
20:47Okay.
20:48So.
20:50Okay.
20:51Are you drunk?
20:52I just had a root canal done.
20:55Oh, God.
20:56Is that why you're in Melbourne?
20:57Did Philip do it?
20:58It was an emergency.
20:59My face was going to explode.
21:01Are you still there now?
21:02Mm.
21:03Lill, I think you should seriously consider asking them for help.
21:09Mm.
21:09Oh, yeah.
21:11Just a loan.
21:12You can pay them back.
21:13How's my patient?
21:14I can't help.
21:15Mary and I don't have the money.
21:17No, I know.
21:18Of course not.
21:19Sweetie, you should be resting, not talking on the phone.
21:22Just think about it, okay?
21:24Okay.
21:24That was Hamish.
21:29Oh.
21:30How's his business with the drawing?
21:34He's a graphic designer.
21:35He's very in demand.
21:37In Ballarat.
21:41Sweetie, when was the last time you saw a dentist?
21:44Dad said it was disgusting in there.
21:48I'm sorry.
21:50How's the pain?
21:51I'm still pretty out of it, so it's all good.
21:56Thanks, Mum.
21:57I really do appreciate it.
21:59Anytime, sweetheart.
22:00Although maybe no more boiled lollies.
22:03You know what?
22:07I wanted to talk to you about that, actually.
22:10Um, so the reason I bit down on the lolly so hard
22:22was because I was upset
22:24because I got this email from this agency that said that...
22:28Sweetie, I've got a patient, so you know what?
22:31You can tell me the rest of this story tonight.
22:34Oh, Dad's got tennis, so...
22:36Girls' night.
22:37In the morning, you can come for a dip in the bay.
22:42What?
22:43God.
22:43It's freezing,
22:45but I cannot tell you what it does for your outlook.
22:47It's my new drug.
22:48I can't stay.
22:49I'm going home.
22:51Sweetie, you can't drive after that procedure.
22:54I'm going to be fine in a bed.
22:55Don't be ridiculous.
22:57Dad pumped you with enough nitrous oxide to shoot a rhino,
23:00and it's not like you have anything to go back to Ballarat for.
23:04Consider spending one night with your mother.
23:06Payment for having the tooth saved.
23:14And just make sure that all the information matches, okay?
23:34Lillian.
23:36Sorry, I missed your call.
23:37No, no, not at all.
23:39Is everything all right?
23:40I just had a dental thing done, so my mouth's a bit numb.
23:44I'm not drunk.
23:45I didn't think you were drunk.
23:48But is this an okay time to talk?
23:50Yeah, definitely.
23:52Well, following our conversation a couple of weeks ago,
23:56I have some feedback for you from the recipient of Asha's lungs.
24:04Okay.
24:05Firstly, I'm able to tell you that the recipient is a young woman.
24:09And this young woman is very keen to write to you.
24:15But as I told you, for some people, writing is complicated,
24:18but this young woman really wants you to know that a letter is on its way
24:22because she is deeply, deeply grateful.
24:29Lillian?
24:29Yeah, I'm here.
24:34I hope that's given you some comfort.
24:38Yes.
24:41Really, thank you.
24:59Excuse me, sorry.
25:17Do you have a charger?
25:24Vandenberg family, all the Dontics, can you hold the line, please?
25:29Noah Campbell?
25:35Hey, can I get my charger back?
25:41I'll get it on the way out.
25:59I'll get it on the way out.
26:11I'll get it on the way out.
26:12I'll get it on the way out.
26:13I'll get it on the way out.
26:14Yeah.
26:15No worries.
26:16I'll get it on the way out.
26:28What is that?
26:30I'm just going to hold you in for this, OK?
26:31Finish this?
26:51Sure.
27:01Oh, my God.
27:31Has anyone seen Lillian?
28:01I don't know.
28:31I'm not paying for the funeral, Janet.
28:51I didn't want any of that.
28:55Sorry, I can't talk about this right now.
28:58I'm on my way out.
28:59Janet, I don't have the money.
29:01This is so unfair.
29:03How is it unfair?
29:04You signed a contract?
29:06I have debt collectors after me.
29:08I don't know how that works,
29:10but I'm sure they have repayment plans that are manageable.
29:15There's something wrong with you.
29:18I don't know why you're so angry with me.
29:21Well, obviously, I do.
29:24But I wish you weren't.
29:28Do you think I could come in for a couple of minutes?
29:31I told you I'm going out.
29:35Look, Lillian, I'm sorry there are debt collectors involved,
29:39but it's not my fault that you ignored the invoices for so long.
29:42Maybe you need to see a doctor.
29:47No, just please.
29:52I know that we didn't see you a lot.
29:56That Ash didn't see you a lot.
29:58It's not my fault he didn't live in the city.
30:01I'm not saying it was anyone's fault.
30:02I wanted him to get a job at the Alfred.
30:04But that's not what he wanted.
30:08What I'm trying to say is that I think maybe
30:12you both wanted different things.
30:15He wanted to donate his organs.
30:18He had a card in his wallet saying that he was a registered donor.
30:22He wanted me to register.
30:24I mean, you keep thinking that it was my decision,
30:26but it was his.
30:28He was dead.
30:30Oh, my God.
30:32Shanna.
30:33I can't talk about this anymore.
30:35Just, no, please.
30:38Wait, I want to show you something.
30:43This woman, Taylor, she has Ash's lungs.
30:49He saved her life.
30:50Look, she has a little boy.
30:56No!
30:59Oh, Jesus Christ.
31:08You smashed my phone.
31:10Please go.
31:12Are you still this angry?
31:15Are you still as angry as when you tricked me
31:17into paying for his funeral?
31:20Oh, God, I've got a bit of electrolytes.
31:34Oh, hey, what?
31:35Oh, God, I've got a bit of electrolytes.
31:36Oh, hey, what?
31:39Oh, God, I've got a bit of electrolytes.
31:48Oh, hey, what?
31:50Oh, yeah.
31:51Hey, while I've got you, I was thinking,
31:52if you need a hand moving the gear,
31:54like, if that's been a problem,
31:56I can just get some of the boys to help us out after...
31:58Jack!
31:58Hey, sorry, Rick, I've got a meeting.
32:01No worries.
32:02It cuts up.
32:06Is he coming on to you?
32:07Is that why we're having a meeting?
32:09I want to sue Janet.
32:10No, the funeral company.
32:13Whoever it is.
32:15No, Janet.
32:16Definitely her.
32:17I spoke to Hamish about that this morning.
32:18I'm not sure.
32:19I've got proof that she's tricked me into signing.
32:22What are you, 14?
32:23Who has a smashed screen?
32:24I didn't do it.
32:24Just listen to this.
32:26You smashed my phone.
32:28Please go.
32:30Are you still this angry?
32:33Are you still as angry as when you tricked me
32:35into paying for his funeral?
32:40Then what did she say?
32:41After that?
32:43No, she went inside.
32:46Sorry, how is this proof?
32:47You said that she tricked you into signing.
32:50She didn't say anything.
32:52No.
32:54But it's clear that she's punishing me
32:56for donating his organ.
32:57You can't sue someone for being an arsehole.
32:59Okay?
33:05Move!
33:11You're good.
33:13There is something, actually,
33:15that could help with the debt repayments.
33:18Have you thought about victim compensation?
33:20I know you don't like talking about it.
33:21No.
33:23Okay.
33:25Well, is there family money?
33:26I would rather be someone's bitch in prison
33:28than owe my mother money.
33:30Good to know.
33:33Yeah.
33:33Yeah.
33:33Hey.
33:51Did you go all night?
33:55No, but it was so late, I just decided to crash there for a bit.
34:04Did you listen to my voicemail?
34:06Mm-hmm.
34:07So I think Janet's been sitting on this for months
34:10knowing Lillian has no clue
34:11and waiting for it to explode in her face.
34:13Mommy!
34:14Mm-hmm.
34:17You stay.
34:18I mean, it all makes sense.
34:21I can't believe she's been plotting this since Ash died.
34:23Babe, please.
34:25What?
34:25I just need to sleep.
34:27Are you going to be okay for tonight?
34:28Because we can easily cancel.
34:30No, we can't.
34:32No, we can't.
34:34Fuck it.
34:35It hurts.
34:37Mm!
35:05Hi.
35:15Oh, hi.
35:16Did you have a good drive over?
35:18Yeah, no, quite a smooth ride.
35:21Hi, Kelly.
35:22Hello, Lillian.
35:23Thank you so much for having us.
35:25Thank you for coming.
35:27I know it's a little bit weird.
35:29Oh, no, no.
35:31Ballarat seems lovely.
35:33No, I didn't mean Ballarat.
35:34I meant this.
35:36Oh, no, I know.
35:38Sorry, I don't know why I said that.
35:40Because it's a bit weird?
35:42Maybe.
35:44Oh, let me take that.
35:46Still not supposed to carry heavy things.
35:50Sorry.
35:51Yeah.
35:51Um, yeah, just...
35:55Come in.
35:57Three boys and one girl.
36:06I don't know how you manage it.
36:07I'll tell you how.
36:08Her name's Kelly.
36:10You help occasionally.
36:11Well, we need a Kelly here,
36:13because we can hardly manage with two,
36:15let alone four.
36:15Oh, yeah, you saw us trying to get them in bed tonight.
36:18Wish we could blame that on the excitement of visitors.
36:20But that is every night.
36:23Wow, it's different when they're little.
36:25Ours are older.
36:26Yeah, you must have started early.
36:28Dom's 16.
36:29Yeah, we got married straight out of uni,
36:31and Andrew always wanted four children, so...
36:34Not much point over your family business
36:35if you don't have a family.
36:38Bit of succession planning.
36:40Absolutely.
36:41How old did you say yours were married?
36:46Lewis is four.
36:47Astrid is six, almost seven.
36:49We moved here when she was...
36:51Eight months.
36:52Yeah.
36:52From...
36:53Melbourne.
36:54I was at the Alfred on an exchange.
36:57I wasn't expecting to stay in Australia,
36:59but then I met him and...
37:01I cannot resist my charms.
37:03Got pregnant.
37:05We did get married first, just to be clear.
37:07I was definitely a little bit pregnant when we got married.
37:09A stickler for details.
37:11But I wanted to hurry up.
37:12I felt like I was a late starter.
37:14And why Ballarat?
37:15Did you grow up in the country, Mary?
37:16No, no, no.
37:17I was a city girl,
37:18but Hamish loved the idea of having some land.
37:21Being away from my family.
37:23And it looked so good that I decided to do it, too.
37:26Oh.
37:28Help yourself to salad.
37:30Oh, thank you.
37:31So your parents are...
37:33My dad and his dad are brothers.
37:35And we're both the disappointing children.
37:37Oh, I'm sure that's not true.
37:39Oh, no, it is.
37:40Little bar-bar black sheep's the pair of them.
37:43I have two brothers, both investment bankers.
37:46They make million-dollar bonuses.
37:48He makes lasagna.
37:49Who do your brothers work for?
37:53I think you're missing the point, darling.
37:55Did you know her dad was an Olympic cyclist?
37:57No, really.
37:58Oh.
37:58He only got bronze.
37:59Oh, did your parents expect you to be an athlete?
38:02They expected me to be everything that I'm not.
38:04She was supposed to be an orthodontist.
38:07Mouths.
38:08Not finish a science degree and work in a bar in Berlin for six years.
38:11Seven.
38:12Definitely not come back and settle in Ballarat.
38:14The country's for your second property.
38:16She doesn't even have a first property.
38:18At least this black sheep owns a house.
38:20Well, only because you married a doctor.
38:22Yeah, you did.
38:23And Mary, you worked with Ash.
38:29That's how you met?
38:31Well, technically they met through mixed netball.
38:34Ash played on my team.
38:35Your team?
38:36I started it.
38:37I thought he did.
38:37He was lucky to be arsed.
38:40He's only saying that because they used to run together,
38:43but Ash was too fast for him.
38:44It wasn't about the running.
38:45It was about the bro time.
38:47Oh, now come on.
38:48So, anyway, Andrew Kelly, if I can continue,
38:51Lillian started playing on our team
38:53and suddenly she and Ash are arriving like an hour early for every match.
38:57Oh, hi, Lillian, you're here.
38:58Oh, Ash, are you playing this week?
39:00We were not that obvious.
39:02And then on the court, they only threw the ball to each other.
39:04Because we were the best.
39:09Are you all right?
39:10Oh, I'm so sorry.
39:11I'm sorry.
39:13I've got no right to be upset.
39:16I just...
39:17I just want you to know that we are so grateful
39:23and so sorry.
39:40He wants to change his plea.
39:45What?
39:46Jordan Bancroft.
39:47Who killed Ash.
39:49He wants to change his plea to not guilty.
39:53Since when?
39:54Didn't Fiona call you?
39:56Yes, she left me a message, but I haven't called her back.
39:59Can he do that?
40:00I guess we'll find out.
40:02Okay, so what does that mean?
40:04Well, Lillian, if you called people back,
40:07you'd fucking know the answer to that.
40:08Well, let's not talk about it now.
40:12Sorry, I've just had a little bit going on.
40:14Andrew, would you like some more lasagna?
40:16Oh.
40:17He'd already pleaded guilty at a committal hearing a couple of months ago.
40:21Mary, let's not dig into it now.
40:22So he was facing the mandatory ten-year sentence, the one-punch law.
40:25Well, and we're supposed to have, sorry, were supposed to have a plea hearing in a couple of weeks.
40:33But now?
40:35But now what?
40:37Now it might go to trial.
40:38I mean, that might be for the better.
40:41The jury might give him longer than ten years.
40:44Or he might get away with it.
40:46He won't get away with it.
40:47I don't know.
40:48His magistrates.
40:50The system's so soft.
40:52They let these assholes off because they weren't bloody breastfed long enough.
40:55Jesus!
40:56It's true!
40:57Oh.
40:59It is true.
41:00Well, look, if I can help in any way, honestly, if you need legal assistance or financial, just say the word.
41:08Well, in that case, you happen to have a spare 35 grand because I seem to have some outstanding funeral dances.
41:12Lillian, can you help me with the chickens?
41:16I think I can hear them squawking.
41:17Can I grab my coat first?
41:19No, okay.
41:26Ash's mother didn't consent to his.
41:29Organ donation.
41:32Oh.
41:33She was furious that Lillian, as his next of kin, did consent and stopped speaking to her.
41:38And now she's trying to make Lillian pay for a funeral that she organised, so...
41:44I think we can comfortably call her a despicable bitch.
41:52What is wrong with you?
41:53Wrong with me?
41:54What about your wife?
41:56She needs to woo her up and we've only bought a dozen bottles.
41:58You asked for money.
42:01I was joking.
42:02You can't joke about your debts in front of them.
42:05That woman is wracked with guilt.
42:07I was joking.
42:08What is happening?
42:09You're insane.
42:11Mary's having some kind of breakdown.
42:13Fuck.
42:13Fuck.
42:13She didn't tell you about the plea thing.
42:29I don't know why he's here.
42:31Why are we having this dinner?
42:33Because he's got Ash's heart.
42:36I don't think we should get involved.
42:46In what?
42:47In any of it.
42:48The court case.
42:49It's too muddled.
42:52How is it muddled?
42:55You do realise that you were advocating for the harsh imprisonment of a man that killed
43:00someone, but if he hadn't killed that someone, then you'd be dead.
43:03Yeah, I think we're beyond all that now.
43:07No, we're not.
43:08This is real life, Kelly.
43:09Not an ethics podcast.
43:11But there are ethics involved.
43:14I mean, you're not seriously contemplating giving Lillian money for the funeral.
43:17Well, wouldn't I be contemplating that?
43:19Because it's against the law to pay for organs.
43:22Not to mention what it would look like.
43:23No one's paying for organs.
43:25Well, what would you call it then?
43:26Helping someone.
43:27Sorry, remind me.
43:28Who was worried about being too rich and entitled?
43:30That was different.
43:32Maybe you'd feel more generous if your life had been saved.
43:57You ready to drink coffee yet?
44:00Thanks for the heads up about Jordan Bancroft changing his plea deal, by the way.
44:18Sorry.
44:20You could have told me.
44:23I couldn't.
44:24But you could tell the most inappropriate audience.
44:29Were you siding with Mr. Tough on crime, by the way?
44:31You made a good point.
44:32Oh, yeah.
44:33No, it's a shame we didn't get onto climate change.
44:36I would have loved to have heard from the guy who flies his plane into state for a chat.
44:42This isn't about his politics.
44:43Is it?
44:44No.
44:45Look, I know you're angry.
44:46I'm not angry, Mary.
44:47I'm fucking scrambling.
44:49I have no idea what is going on with you.
44:52You talked me into having that dinner last night, and then you just...
44:55If you had have told me about Jordan, we could have gone through it.
45:01Oh, could we have?
45:02You don't know what you're fucking talking about.
45:12I'm taking Astrid to school.
45:14I'll take her.
45:15You're still drunk.
45:32Sorry for not calling after.
45:53$35,000?
45:56I don't even know where to start.
45:59Your father and I are just...
46:03...speechless.
46:07I...
46:07First of all, Hamish had no right to tell you.
46:11Hamish?
46:11Hamish didn't tell us.
46:13Janet did.
46:14What?
46:15Did she call you?
46:16What choice did she have?
46:18You were screaming at her in her front yard.
46:19The neighbours wanted to call the police.
46:21There were no neighbours.
46:23Get over it.
46:24You think this was bad for you?
46:26This was her son.
46:28Why would you pay so much for a funeral when you don't have any money?
46:32And now there are debt collectors.
46:34How did she let it get this far?
46:35Yeah.
46:36How did you let it get this far?
46:38I didn't.
46:39Oh, really?
46:40Then who did?
46:41You signed contracts, you little idiot.
46:43We will lend you the money on one condition.
46:51You come home and you work at the clinic until we think the debt is paid off.
46:56It's time to grow up, Lillian.
46:59And stop being so fucking embarrassing.
47:02Three, two, one.
47:22Fire away!
47:23Woo!
47:28Hey, Lillian.
47:29Hey.
47:30That's Polly, the slack log seller.
47:33Ah, probably one of your relatives.
47:35She comes from very dodgy stuff.
47:36Do you want to see the gold painting village?
47:39This is very realistic, isn't it?
47:40That's the idea.
47:42Hey, Sharon.
47:43You're keening your day off.
47:45Showing off.
47:46This is Sharon, my boss.
47:48This is Andrew and Kelly, my cousins from Adelaide.
47:53Oh, welcome.
47:56Cheers.
47:58I'll get some pans.
48:01You be grumpy all day?
48:04You're the one that won't talk about it.
48:06Nothing to talk about.
48:07Did you just hear her lie about who we were?
48:09Oh, come on.
48:10What did you expect her to say?
48:11The truth?
48:12How do you think that would have gone down?
48:15Prepare to find your fortune.
48:17And by fortune, I mean bottle tops and a couple of old band-aids.
48:21Yeah.
48:22All right.
48:30Lillian, about, um, about the funeral debt you're facing.
48:35Ah, yeah.
48:36I didn't, I really didn't mean to bring that up.
48:39I blame the really nice wine.
48:40Well, we would like to help.
48:42No, I couldn't take money from you.
48:46Why not?
48:47Because it would feel in exchange for, you know.
48:52For my heart?
48:53Yeah.
48:53Well, it's not.
48:54But it kind of is.
48:55Well, so what, you know, I spent $180,000 on my car and I'm prepared to spend $35,000 on my life.
49:01You know, I think about Ash every single day.
49:11Mostly in the mornings when one of the kids, usually James, climbs into bed for a cuddle.
49:21Say a thank you.
49:22And they had.
49:22And they had.
49:24Hey, if your mother-in-law had her way, you wouldn't need to be standing here.
49:31He's right.
49:36You should take the money.
49:41Unless you find your fortune in gold in the next 10 minutes.
49:44All right, shove over.
49:48Is that some?
49:49What's this?
49:49Gold section.
49:50Come on, stop hogging it.
49:52I've already done that bit.
49:52Hey, Shinona, there's a bit over here.
49:54I've got really good eyes.
49:55So the angina in bay four can be released and the cyclist in six can be prepped for surgery.
50:01Don't we want to get him to x-ray first?
50:03He's been to x-ray.
50:04No, you said hold off.
50:05No, I didn't.
50:08Right.
50:09Uh, yeah, okay.
50:11That's...
50:12Lauren?
50:16Yeah, can you keep it down, please?
50:18Sorry.
50:21I'm going on my break.
50:25I'm going on my break.
50:55I'm going on my break.
50:59Brooke?
51:01Hey!
51:02You tell your fucking boyfriend that I won't let him get away with this.
51:06Do you understand?
51:07Do you understand?
51:19Three, two, one.
51:22All right, we've got half the last 30 seconds.
51:24Come on, guys, push.
51:26Push.
51:26Go, go, go, go.
51:28Take the heart rate.
51:29Go, go, go.
51:32Nice.
51:33Stick your chest out when you push up.
51:35Lovely.
51:36Sorry to interrupt.
51:37It's now a good time to move Ash's things.
51:41Absolutely.
51:42Yeah.
51:43Yeah.
51:44Perfect timing.
51:45We've got plenty of people here who can lift.
51:53You loved his sport.
51:55You loved his toys.
51:57Boys and their toys.
52:00So, do you have a storage facility or what do you want this stuff?
52:10Sorry, I just, I need to open this.
52:11Just put it all in the lounge room.
52:13Right on.
52:14Never mind.
52:15Let's go.
52:15Hello.
52:16Bye.
52:17Bye-bye.
52:17Bye-bye.
52:24Bye.
52:29Bye-bye.
52:30Bye-bye.
52:35Bye-bye.
52:35Bye-bye.
52:36Bye-bye.
52:37Oh, I thought we were meeting the restaurant.
53:06Come on, Kelly's still in the shower.
53:09I had just received another letter thanking me for the gift.
53:15Right.
53:16And it reminded me that Ash's heart was a gift to you.
53:21His gift that he chose to give.
53:23I can't take your money.
53:24No, no, no, hang on.
53:25This isn't his gift.
53:27This is something that I want to do.
53:28Look, if this is about what happened when you saw his photo.
53:32Oh, no, what do you, no, I told you that's...
53:36Wouldn't he hate seeing what's happening to you now with what his mum's doing?
53:43Of course he would.
53:44So he would want me to help you?
53:45He definitely would not.
53:56Once we went away to the Grampians for a night and we went to this fuck off fancy restaurant
54:04for dinner.
54:05And when we got back to the motel, Ash realised they hadn't charged him for the wine.
54:11I got really excited and then started jumping on the bed because we'd had a win.
54:16But he walked right back to the restaurant and paid for it.
54:21He said that we had ordered the wine because it was expensive and special, not because we'd hoped
54:26to get it for free.
54:28Apparently the waitress started crying.
54:33It was her first night.
54:36I mean, it's just hardly the same as a bottle of wine.
54:43It's sorted.
54:45My mum has been amazing and offered me a payment plan.
54:49I'm alright.
