04:32Okay, okay, just hang on there, buddy.
04:35No, no, no, no!
05:02Habsies?
05:03I'm off, sugar.
05:04Well, that's stupid.
05:05I hope you've got some coins for those boiled lollies, Mr Rathbone.
05:08We're not even open yet.
05:09You are in your costume.
05:10You should have your purse on your person from the moment you're dressed.
05:14My purse on my person?
05:16Is that a thing?
05:19Come on, Nicole.
05:22Mrs 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?
05:34Well, I mean, I don't actually mind if it's before anyone's here.
05:38No, Daz, Mr Winterton, she's right.
05:43Rules are rules.
05:45You just, you're so good at being a character, like, from the moment you come in.
05:51Hmm.
05:52It's no wonder that the office is using you in the new marketing campaign.
05:57They are not.
06:00I saw the mock-ups on Sharon's computer.
06:03I'll go get some money.
06:04For goodness sake, just quickly.
06:08You sure?
06:09Yes.
06:10That's very kind of you, Mrs Hollyoak.
06:13This is the last time.
06:14Definitely the last time.
06:17Sorry, email in the way.
06:23Do you want your back?
06:26What the fucking fuck?
06:34If this is about me forgetting Astrid's library book, I know, but I got her to calm down with an old fruit tingle I found in my bag.
06:43Do we have fenugreek seeds?
06:45What of fenug...
06:46What did you say?
06:47Fenugreek.
06:48They're in this recipe I'm looking at.
06:50I don't think Blakes would stock them, would they?
06:52I don't even know what they are.
06:54This recipe says start three days early.
06:56I'm already one day short.
06:58Well, 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.
07:10Just don't try and be too fancy.
07:12I'm not being too fancy, I'm just...
07:14I mean, what do you cook for the person who has your friend's heart?
07:17Anything.
07:18Not awful.
07:20Maybe you should rock it old school and do lasagna.
07:23Or is that jacami?
07:25Time's cookbook has a keto one that looks awful.
07:30I don't know.
07:35Sonya's perfect.
07:36How are you not freaked out by all of this?
07:40I am.
07:41Of course I am.
07:42I'm not sure I can do it.
07:43And Lillian said he had that weird reaction.
07:45Honey, I know this is confronting, but...
07:50Something's going on.
07:51Because she wrote that victim impact statement.
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 Vikesmith.
08:10In a dray.
08:11What's a dray?
08:12This is not for the general public.
08:31Jesus.
08:32You're on probation here, remember?
08:34Janet's making me pay for the funeral.
08:36It's 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?
08:50I don't know.
08:51I didn't think they were for me.
08:54I just...
08:55I 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.
09:0435,000.
09:07How do you spend $35,000 on a funeral?
09:11She went on top of the range.
09:14The coffin was...
09:17The flowers.
09:18Right, exactly.
09:19So Ash's mum organised the funeral.
09:21Why are you getting the bill?
09:22She's punishing me.
09:26I didn't know what I was doing.
09:29I just...
09:31I just rang the funeral place.
09:33And my signature is on the contract.
09:38She 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.
09:53I'm gonna call her.
09:54No, she's blocked my number.
09:57She blocked all of us, remember?
10:00I 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.
10:19I know this is not the best option, but 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.
10:31So many documents you can find.
10:46Still wanna go ahead with the dinner?
10:50Me too, I'm pumped.
10:52Liar.
10:53Jesus.
10:54Well, you won't tell me how long we're going for, so...
11:09Well, it's not a month.
11:11Look, I just wanna leave the window open in case Lillian needs more time.
11:15For what?
11:17You 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.
11:24What'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 wanna be too rich and entitled.
11:41We are rich and entitled.
11:43Yes, I know.
11:44But I don't wanna 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.
12:03I 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 gonna sit opposite this family.
12:24When they've lost so much.
12:25I think the least we could do is sit opposite them.
12:55More details.
13:13Hey, Lillian!
13:15Hey, Rick.
13:16Sorry. Can I just have a quick word?
13:17Sorry, I can't leave the kids.
13:22Hey, come on, keep 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.
13:37Well, I won't keep you.
13:39For long. I won't keep you for long.
13:42So, we're getting two new skulls, which is exciting.
13:46The club's growing.
13:47It means we need to build new racks on the north wall.
13:51But at the moment, Ash's things are still there.
13:57What?
13:59His bike, canoe, skis.
14:04I told him he could store them all there, which 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, no dramas.
14:15If we can look at moving on before the end of the war, we...
14:18Yeah, okay, cool.
14:19Speak soon.
14:20I'll tell him.
14:21I'll tell him.
14:22Just...
14:23Oh.
14:24Ah.
14:25Ah.
14:26Ah.
14:27Ah.
14:28Oh, my God.
14:58So, Lillian, what's happened is you have chipped Mr. Filling, who lives up in Pre-Molar Avenue.
15:20But, Lillian, that's not the really bad news.
15:23The tooth is rotten underneath, so we're going to have to perform what we call a root canal.
15:29How much is that going to cost?
15:31I could do that for you for $1,800.
15:34Oh.
15:35Lillian, that's a very competitive price.
15:38I don't think you'll find anyone that can do it any cheaper.
15:53I don't think you'll find anyone that can do it any more.
16:05I don't think you'll find anyone that can do it any more.
16:09Lillian.
16:21There'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.
16:31Oh, you know, he loves a root canal.
16:34Ooh.
16:35Oh, Jesus.
16:37Oh, just ignore him.
16:38You know, he's much gentler than I am.
16:40Oh.
16:41We're so glad you're home.
16:43Okay, we're back in ten minutes, so don't go anywhere, yeah?
16:58That's got a bit cold.
16:59Yeah, sorry, we ran over.
17:01Is it oat?
17:02Oat?
17:02Since when do you drink oat?
17:04I told you, I've read that article about this.
17:06That's right, yeah, it's oat.
17:07Yeah, crap.
17:11Okay.
17:11So, 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?
17:20Hmm.
17:21There's no forgery.
17:22Oh, 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, death 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.
17:59Just tell her that, uh, she would have to prove that she was coerced into signing it to have any chance of a, of a lawsuit.
18:07Yeah?
18:08Okay.
18:09Hey!
18:10No!
18:11No!
18:12You away!
18:13You in here!
18:13So you were renovating in Bare Feet?
18:18No.
18:19I had thongs on.
18:21Oh.
18:23Cool.
18:23Mary?
18:24Mary?
18:24Give 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.
18:37Bye.
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.
19:04He was assigned a wet-behind-the-ears 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.
19:20In my view, it's very unlikely.
19:21Right.
19:21Because it was all set.
19:22But him asking might delay things a bit.
19:31What would it mean if he got it changed?
19:34Well, it would go to trial.
19:37And 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.
19:57Yeah.
19:59Yeah, of course.
20:00You call me if you need me.
20:08Yeah.
20:08Yeah.
20:11And I'll let Lillian know.
20:12Hey.
20:21Crap news, I'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.
21:07Just 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.
21:28That 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?
21:45Dad 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.
22:05You know what?
22:07I wanted to talk to you about that, actually.
22:17Um...
22:18So the reason I bit down on the lolly so hard was because I was upset because I got this
22:26email from this agency that said that...
22:28Sweetie, I've got a patient, so you know what?
22:30You can tell me the rest of this story tonight.
22:33Oh.
22:35Dad's got tennis, so girls' night.
22:38In the morning, you can come for a dip in the bay.
22:42What?
22:42What?
22:43God.
22:43It's freezing, but 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.
22:55In 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.
23:09And just make sure that all the information matches, OK?
23:35Lillian.
23:36Sorry, I missed a 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.
23:47But is this an OK time to talk?
23:50Yeah, definitely.
23:52Well, following our conversation a couple of weeks ago,
23:56I have some feedback for you.
23:59Uh-huh.
24:00From the recipient of Ash's lungs.
24:04OK.
24:04Firstly, I'm able to tell you that the recipient is a young woman.
24:11And 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.
24:28Lillian?
24:31Yeah, I'm here.
24:34I hope that's given you some comfort.
24:38Yes.
24:41Really, thank you.
25:12Excuse me.
25:17Sorry, do you have a charger?
25:25Vandenberg family, all the Dontics, can you hold the line, please?
25:32Noah Campbell?
25:33Hey, can I get my charger back?
25:41I'll get it on the way out.
25:42But then I'll leave you.
25:48Continue.
25:52Bye.
25:57Bye.
26:05Bye.
26:07Bye.
26:07Bye.
26:08Bye.
26:09Bye.
26:10Bye.
26:10Bye.
26:11Um, I can get someone to call.
26:14Yeah, thank you.
26:15Yeah, no worries.
26:26What?
26:27What is that?
26:28What is that?
26:29I'm just going to have a look at this, okay?
26:31I'm just going to have a look at this.
26:41Oh, my God.
26:43Oh!
26:50Finish this?
26:51Sure.
27:01Oh, my God.
27:31Oh, my God.
27:41Has anyone seen Lillian?
28:01Yes.
28:04Yes, sir.
28:06Yes.
28:37I'm not paying for the funeral, Janet. I didn't want any of that.
28:55Sorry, I can't talk about this right now. I'm on my way out.
28:59Janet, I don't have the money. This is so unfair.
29:03How is it unfair? You signed a contract?
29:06I have debt collectors after me.
29:08I don't know how that works, but I'm sure they have repayment plans that are manageable.
29:15Is something wrong with you?
29:18I don't know why you're so angry with me.
29:22Well, obviously, I do.
29:24But I wish you weren't.
29:27Do 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, but it's not my fault that you ignored the invoices for so long.
29:45Maybe you need to see a doctor.
29:46No, just please.
29:52I know that we didn't see you a lot.
29:56That Ash didn't see you a lot.
29:58Well, it'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.
30:05What I'm trying to say is that I think maybe you 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 him.
30:24And you keep thinking that it was my decision, but it was his.
30:28He was dead.
30:30Oh, my God.
30:32Janet.
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.
30:48He saved her life.
30:52Look, she has a little boy.
30:56No!
30:59Jesus Christ!
31:05He smashed my phone.
31:11Please go.
31:12Are you still this angry?
31:15Are you still as angry as when you tricked me into paying for his funeral?
31:18Well, G'day.
31:19A bit of electrolytes.
31:20Oh, how's it going?
31:20I'm still as angry as when you tricked me into paying for his funeral.
31:21I'm still as angry as when you tricked me into paying for his funeral.
31:22I'm still as angry as when you tricked me into paying for his funeral.
31:23I'm still as angry as when you tricked me into paying for his funeral.
31:24I'm still as angry as when you tricked me into paying for his funeral.
31:28Oh, G'day.
31:29Ah, g'day. Bit of electrolytes.
31:48Oh, hey, what? Oh, yeah.
31:51Hey, while I've got you, I was thinking,
31:52if you need a hand moving the gear, like, if that's been a problem,
31:56I can just get some of the boys to help us out after...
31:58Jack! Hey, sorry, Rick, I've got a meeting.
32:01No worries. It cuts up.
32:06Is he coming on to you? Is that why we're having a meeting?
32:09I want to sue Janet.
32:10No, the funeral company.
32:12No, whoever it is.
32:15No, Janet. Definitely her.
32:17I spoke to Hamish about that this morning. I'm not sure.
32:19I've got proof that she's tricked me into signing.
32:22What are you, 14? Who has a smashed screen?
32:24I didn't do it. Just 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 into paying for his funeral?
32:40Then what did she say?
32:41After that?
32:42No, she went inside.
32:46Sorry, how is this proof?
32:48You said that she tricked you into signing.
32:50She didn't say anything.
32:51No.
32:52But it's clear that she's punishing me for donating his organ.
32:57You can't sue someone for being an arsehole.
32:59Okay?
33:04Just move!
33:05You're good.
33:11There is something, actually, that could help with the debt repayments.
33:18Have you thought about victim compensation?
33:20I know you don't like talking about it.
33:21Nah.
33:22Well, is there family money?
33:26I would rather be someone's bitch in prison than owe my mother money.
33:30Good to know.
33:33Yeah.
33:33Hey.
33:53Did you go all night?
33:59No, but it was so late.
34:02I just decided to crash there for a bit.
34:05Did you listen to my voicemail?
34:07Mm-hmm.
34:08So I think Janet's been sitting on this for months, knowing Lillian has no clue, and waiting for it to explode in her face.
34:14Mommy!
34:16Mmm.
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.
34:24Please.
34:25What?
34:26I 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.
34:36Okay.
35:04Okay.
35:05Okay.
35:06Hi.
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, um...
35:53Come 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.
36:22Wow, 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.
36:36A bit of succession planning.
36:40Absolutely.
36:43How 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.
36:53From...
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...
37:01Could not resist my charms.
37:03Got pregnant.
37:03We did get married first, just to be clear.
37:07I was definitely a little bit pregnant when we got married.
37:10Stickler 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.
37:28Mmm.
37:29Help 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?
37:50I think you're missing the point, darling.
37:55Did you know her dad was an Olympic cyclist?
37:57No, really.
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 your science degree
38:09and 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.
38:25And, 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.
38:58You'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.
39:05Are 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.
39:25And so sorry.
39:26I just want you to know that we are so sorry.
39:40He wants to change his plea.
39:45What?
39:46Jordan Bancroft, who killed Ash.
39:49He wants to change his plea to not guilty.
39:51Since 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,
40:24the one-punch law,
40:26and we're supposed to have...
40:29Sorry, 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.
40:39I 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.
40:48You know, his magistrates.
40:50The system's so soft.
40:52They let these assholes off
40:53because they weren't bloody breastfed long enough.
40:55Andrew.
40:55Jesus.
40:56It's true.
40:57Oh.
40:59It is true.
41:00Well, look, if I can help in any way,
41:03honestly, if you need legal assistance or financial,
41:06just say the word.
41:08Well, in that case, you happen to have a spare 35 grand
41:10because I seem to have some outstanding funeral dances.
41:12Lillian, can you help me with the chickens?
41:15I 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 organ donation.
41:32Oh.
41:32She was furious that Lillian, as his next of kin,
41:36did consent and stopped speaking to her.
41:38And now she's trying to make Lillian pay for a funeral
41:41that she organised, so...
41:44I think we can comfortably call her a despicable bitch.
41:48What is wrong with you?
41:53Wrong with me?
41:54What about your wife?
41:56She needs to woo her up and we only bought a dozen bottles.
41:59You 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.
42:13Fuck.
42:13Fuck.
42:18She didn't tell you about the plea thing.
42:29I...
42:29I don't know why he's here.
42:31Why are we having this dinner?
42:34Because he's got Ash's heart.
42:41Inflation drops to expand the QR code on your screen.
42:44I don't think we should get involved.
42:46In what?
42:47In any of it.
42:48The court case, it's...
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.
43:13I mean, you're not seriously contemplating giving Lillian money for the funeral.
43:17Why 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.
43:31Maybe you'd feel more generous if your life had been saved.
43:34You ready to drink coffee yet?
44:04Thanks 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.
44:25But 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...
44:54If you had have told me about Jordan, we could have gotten through it.
45:01Oh, could we have?
45:04You 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.
45:16I'm drunk.
45:30Sorry for not calling after.
45:53$35,000?
45:55I don't even know where to start.
46:00Your father and I are just speechless.
46:08First of all, Hamish had no right to tell you.
46:11Hamish?
46:12Hamish didn't tell us.
46:13Janet did.
46:15What did she call you?
46:16What choice did she have?
46:18You were screaming at her in her front yard.
46:19The neighbors wanted to call the police.
46:21There were no neighbors.
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?
46:33And now there are debt collectors.
46:34How did she let it get this far?
46:36How did you let it get this far?
46:38I didn't.
46:39Oh really, then who did?
46:41You signed contracts, you little idiot.
46:48We will lend you the money on one condition.
46:50You come home and you work at the clinic until we think the debt is paid off.
46:57It's time to grow up, Lillian.
47:00And stop being so fucking embarrassing.
47:04Bye.
47:05You signed contracts.
47:06I've got a condition.
47:07I'm getting so young.
47:08It's time to grow up, Lillian.
47:09But be it.
47:10I'm getting so young.
47:11Three, two, one, fire right!
47:16Woo!
47:16And go, Lillian.
47:21Hello?
47:21Hello?
47:22Oh.
47:23It's a bad one.
47:27Hello?
47:28Hey, Millian.
47:29Hey.
47:30That's Polly, the sly grog seller.
47:33Oh, probably one of your relatives.
47:35She comes from very dodgy store.
47:36Do you want to see the gold painting village?
47:39This is very realistic, isn't it?
47:41That'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.
47:57I'll get some pans.
48:00You'll be grumpy all day.
48:03You're the one that won't talk about it.
48:05Nothing 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?
48:14Prepare to find your fortune.
48:17And by fortune, I mean bottle tops and a couple of old band-aids.
48:21Yeah.
48:22Alright.
48:26Lillian, about the funeral debt you're facing.
48:35Ah, yeah.
48:36I really didn't mean to bring that up.
48:38I blame the really nice wine.
48:40Well, we would like to help.
48:43No, 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.
48:54Well, it's not.
48:55But it kind of is.
48:56So what?
48:57You know?
48:58I spent $180,000 on my car.
49:00I'm prepared to spend $35,000 on my life.
49:07You know, I think about Ash.
49:10Every single day.
49:12Mostly in the mornings.
49:14And one of the kids, usually James, climbs into bed for a cuddle.
49:19Say a thank you.
49:20In the head.
49:21Oh, hey.
49:22If your mother-in-law had her way, you wouldn't even be standing here.
49:35He's right.
49:38You should take the money.
49:41Unless you find your fortune in gold in the next 10 minutes.
49:46All right.
49:47Shove over.
49:48Is that some?
49:49What's this?
49:50Gold section.
49:51Come on.
49:52Stop hogging it.
49:56So the angina in bay four can be released.
49:58And the cyclist in six can be prepped for surgery.
50:01Do I want to get him to x-ray first?
50:02He's been to x-ray.
50:04No, you said hold off.
50:05No, I didn't.
50:08Right.
50:09Uh...
50:10Yeah.
50:11Okay.
50:12That's...
50:15Lauren?
50:16Yeah.
50:17Can you keep it down, please?
50:18Sorry.
50:22I'm going on my break.
50:23I'm gonna get out.
50:24I think I need to...
50:27Are you there?
50:28I think...
50:30No, I can't.
50:31I can't.
50:32I can't.
50:33I need to come here.
50:34I can't.
50:35You can.
50:36It's a little bit more, right?
50:37Let's go.
50:38I can take it.
50:39I can't, I can't.
50:41It's a little bit more.
50:42I can't.
50:43Brooke?
50:58Brooke?
51:01Hey!
51:02You tell your fucking boyfriend that I won't let him get away with this.
51:06Do you understand?
51:13It's all right, I just don't know what you're saying.
51:20Three, two, one!
51:22All right, we've got half the last 30 seconds.
51:24Come on, we're going to push, push, go!
51:27Go, go, go!
51:28Take the heart rate, just do it!
51:30Go, go!
51:32Nice.
51:33Stick your chest out when you push up.
51:35Love it.
51:36Sorry to interrupt.
51:37It's now a good time to move Ash's things.
51:41Absolutely, yeah.
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.
51:59Boys and their toys.
52:03So, do you have a storage facility or where do you want this stuff from?
52:07Sorry, I just, I need to open this.
52:11Just put it all in the lounge room.
52:13Right up.
52:37I need help.
52:39I'm sorry.
52:40But you've got some money for breakfast.
52:41I'm sorry.
52:42I'm sorry, but you've got to get some money for dinner.
52:43I'd let go.
52:44I'm sorry to mention coffee.
52:45I'm sorry, but you want to go.
52:46Yeah.
52:47Goodbye.
52:48I'm sorry.
52:52You should get some money.
52:53I'm sorry.
52:54I'm sorry.
52:55You should get some money.
52:56I'm sorry, but you get some money.
52:57I'm sorry, but I am right.
52:58You're okay.
52:59I've got some money for your business.
53:00Maybe it will get some money for a business.
53:01You're already a business.
53:02How are you going to be?
53:03Oh, I thought we were meeting in the restaurant.
53:07Kelly's still in the shower.
53:08I had just received another letter
53:10thanking me for the gift.
53:15Right.
53:15And 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, would he...
53:34No, I told you, that's...
53:39Wouldn't he hate seeing what's happening to you now
53:42with 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
54:01and we went to this fuck-off fancy restaurant for dinner
54:05and when we got back to the motel,
54:08Ash realised they hadn't charged him for the wine.
54:12I got really excited and I started jumping on the bed
54:15because 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
54:23because it was expensive and special,
54:25not because we'd hoped to get it for free.
54:31Apparently the waitress started crying.
54:34It was her first night.
54:38I mean...
54:40It's just hardly the same as a bottle of wine.
54:42It's sorted.
54:45My mum has been amazing
54:47and offered me a payment plan.
54:49Good.
54:49I'm all right.
54:52All right.
55:00Climbing up on Salisbury Hill
55:02I could see the city light
55:06Wind was blowing, time stood still
55:11Standing, stretching every nun
55:15I had to listen, had no choice
55:19I did not believe the information
55:22Just had to trust imagination
55:27My heart going boom, boom, boom
55:30Son, he said
55:32Grab your fingers out from the table
55:35Oh, hey, back home
55:40Watch my empty silhouette
55:48Who closed their eyes and still can see
55:52No one taught them any care
55:56Hey, I said
56:00You can keep my things, they're going to tell me
56:03Oh, hey
56:11Hey, I said
56:12Hey
56:19Hey
56:25Hey
56:27Hey
56:27Hey
