00:00I've got to admit, I was a bit surprised to get your text, so I thought I wanted to schedule off.
00:12I just wanted to be honest with you, make sure there's no mixed signals.
00:15I just can't imagine being with anyone new right now.
00:18Of course.
00:19But now that that's all cleared up, I was hoping if you're willing to maybe still just be friends.
00:25Yeah, I'd like that.
00:27Dad warned Tane of having a relationship with me if it's why we were walking up in secret.
00:31Can you just say that again, Dad did what?
00:34His first instinct when he heard about the train crash was to look for her and to make sure that she was safe.
00:39He put his own life in danger to help her.
00:42Well, what can he do?
00:43Tell me about you and Tane, and I want the truth.
00:46I've been thinking and I think I need more support with the diner.
00:50What do you mean?
00:51I need to make some changes in my life.
00:53It's too painful for me to keep seeing you if I can't be with you.
00:56I know it's hard but I'm not ready for anything else.
01:00That's why I'm just going to get out of the bay for a while.
01:02You can move back home, I won't be there.
01:04Where are you going?
01:05Cyprus.
01:06I'm going to go and visit Vijay.
01:07Hey!
01:08Have we looked at you?
01:09Don't you usually train down at the beach?
01:10Well, it depends on the conditions.
01:11Bit windy today.
01:12Why, you want to join in?
01:13Oh, no thanks.
01:14Um, I just thought you should know that Joe got out of hospital yesterday.
01:16Right.
01:17Well, that's great.
01:18Happy for him.
01:19Um, and there's also something else you should know.
01:20Oh, look, I'll have to get started with work, sorry.
01:21Eddie's gone.
01:22What do you mean Eddie's gone?
01:23He's gone.
01:24Left town, never to return.
01:25Engagement's off.
01:26Well, that's rough.
01:27Well, that's rough.
01:28Well, that's rough.
01:29Well, what do you mean Eddie's gone?
01:30Eddie's gone.
01:31What do you mean Eddie's gone?
01:32He's gone.
01:33Left town, never to return.
01:34Engagement's off.
01:35I was trying to find my way back to when things were beautiful.
01:56Wanted to keep you in the loop.
02:06There's nothing to tell.
02:08Tane and I went out a few times and then Eddie came back.
02:11Your sister seems to think it runs deeper than that.
02:13Lacey is entitled to her opinion.
02:15Dad, did you do any shopping while I was in the hospital?
02:17The cupboards are empty.
02:18Can we please have an honest conversation?
02:20I don't see the point.
02:23Tane and I are ancient history.
02:24Which, I'm sure you're very happy about.
02:27Why do you say that?
02:29Well, since we're being honest...
02:32I know you warned Tane off.
02:36I had concerns about the guy.
02:39And I didn't want someone making your life more complicated.
02:42Well, that wasn't your call to make.
02:45I'm sorry, but when I saw Tane's criminal record,
02:48it didn't exactly paint the best picture.
02:51Where do you stand now?
02:52Well, Lacey's made it clear that your love life is not my jurisdiction.
02:57Can you just answer the question?
03:02If you want to pursue a future with Tane...
03:06I won't stand in your way.
03:10Oh, let's be real, Dad.
03:11Your opinion is not the obstacle here.
03:13Then what is?
03:14Me.
03:17And the way that I've messed him around.
03:21Nothing turns someone off like getting engaged to another guy.
03:27So you think it's done between you two?
03:29I don't want it to be.
03:38Ah!
03:39Ah!
03:39Marilyn!
03:40We don't see you in here very often.
03:41No, I'm on my way to work.
03:42I just thought I'd pop in.
03:44Um, you're not going back home soon, are you?
03:47Should I be?
03:48No, it's just that Leah's there.
03:50She came to see Justin.
03:52Right.
03:52And what do you reckon?
03:53Were they sort of getting themselves sorted out?
03:56Ah, no.
03:57No, I wasn't getting that from them.
03:59And last night she was saying things like she wanted to make life changes
04:02and she needed more help at the diner.
04:04So I'm a bit worried that she's had enough.
04:08Hmm.
04:08I was hoping they'd get their act together by now.
04:11Yeah, me too.
04:12I just thought I should let you know.
04:13Yeah, well, thanks, love.
04:15I'll sort this stuff out and get home and see how they're going.
04:17Oh, parcel came in for you before I put it behind the desk.
04:22Cool.
04:23I'll let Marley know.
04:25No, no, no.
04:25It's not for Marley.
04:26It was addressed to you.
04:28Me?
04:28Yeah.
04:29Really?
04:29Thanks.
04:47All I know is that I can't be here.
05:00Not like this.
05:02All right, no matter what we do, we can't seem to get past our problem.
05:05So I'm just going to take myself out of the situation.
05:08I need to go to the diner and do a few things and I'm going to go home and pack.
05:12I'll text you when I book my flight.
05:14Text me.
05:14Seriously, you're going to text me.
05:15I suppose I don't get a say in any of it, do I?
05:17You have already had your say.
05:18You said you didn't want to be part of this marriage anymore.
05:20I didn't tell you to leave the country.
05:22What difference does it make?
05:23It makes a very big difference, Leah.
05:25This is our life.
05:26Yeah, well, you've made it pretty clear that there's nothing for us here.
05:29This is the best decision for both of us.
05:31I'm getting tired of you being the one who makes all the decisions.
05:33Well, you don't need to worry about that anymore, do you?
05:36Bye, Justin.
05:41Well, what the flame in hell's happened now?
05:45Nice.
05:51Uh, so, how's Jo doing?
06:09Uh, do you mean health-wise?
06:11Yeah.
06:13Yeah, she's getting there.
06:16And how about with the breakup?
06:19I mean, how do you mean?
06:22How is she coping?
06:24I mean, she's not crying herself to sleep every night, if that's what you're wondering.
06:28Do you know what happened?
06:30I told you, they broke up.
06:33Yeah, but was it your reason?
06:34I guess it wasn't working for them.
06:36Yeah, but did Jo break it off?
06:38Why are you so interested?
06:40You're not making it easy, are you?
06:41Look, if you want to know what my sister's thinking, you should just ask her yourself.
06:59Did Leah say when she's leaving?
07:01Soon.
07:02Just going to sort some things out at the diner.
07:05Well, you're running out of time to turn things around, don't you?
07:08Well, it's not like I've got any say in it, mate.
07:10She's obviously made up her mind.
07:11Come on, mate.
07:12What did you think she'd do when you told her you didn't want to be in the marriage?
07:15I don't know.
07:15I don't know.
07:16I didn't even mean to say it.
07:19Oh, I just...
07:20She pushed me into saying it.
07:21You know, like, with everything being like I was, I just figured that's the way we were headed.
07:27And what do you think now?
07:28Well, things aren't getting any better, are they?
07:31I just never expected her to walk away from it all.
07:37It doesn't have to be like this.
07:40Doesn't it?
07:40Why don't you just forget everything that you said or might have said in the past?
07:49Do you want to be in this marriage or not?
07:54I love her.
07:57Well, there's your answer.
07:58So, what are you going to do about it?
08:20Connie.
08:22David.
08:23It goes without saying, but I take my responsibility as a father seriously.
08:44Of course.
08:44So do I.
08:46And you know what Joe's been through, and LASIK.
08:49I'm not saying it's an excuse, but it's made me...
08:54Overprotective?
08:56Personally, I'd go with cautious, but sure.
09:00Yeah, I get it.
09:01The same with my boy, you know.
09:03Do anything to protect them.
09:05You know, that instinct never goes away.
09:08Even when they're older.
09:10But there comes a time when you've got to step back, and I've struggled with that, especially with Joe.
09:16I mean, you don't have to explain.
09:17No, I do.
09:20It was wrong of me to get involved.
09:23I appreciate that.
09:26And now I know you better.
09:28I was wrong about you, too.
09:31You risked your life to save Joe.
09:34You wouldn't have done that if you didn't care for her.
09:37I absolutely care about her.
09:40That's all I need to know.
09:41You don't have to worry about me interfering again.
09:50And Joe?
09:52How does he feel about that?
09:53I've done my part.
09:56I'm staying out of it now.
09:57The rest is up to you.
10:01Hey.
10:01I got your text.
10:14What are you doing here?
10:15Oh, I thought we could hang out.
10:16Play pool.
10:17Share a mimosa.
10:18Oh, it's at the home.
10:20Sorry.
10:21I'm joking.
10:22I was at the loose end.
10:23I felt like seeing you.
10:24I hope that's all right.
10:25Yeah.
10:26You drove all this way just to see me?
10:29It's not that far.
10:30I mean, if you say so, why didn't you call me first?
10:33What if I was busy or something?
10:35Yeah.
10:36My bad.
10:37But, uh, you're not busy.
10:40So it's cool, right?
10:42Yeah.
10:43Well, I guess since you got the first round of drinks last time, it's my shout.
10:47What do you want?
10:48Um, I trust you.
10:51I love whatever you're having.
10:56So I'll still do the books, and you can call or email any time, but I need you responsible
11:02for the day-to-day running of this place.
11:05I can do that.
11:06Yeah.
11:07Are you really sure about this?
11:08Yeah.
11:09Yeah, of course.
11:10You know, it was about time I promoted you to manager.
11:12Oh, no, I didn't mean that.
11:13I meant about going away.
11:15I am sure.
11:16So I just need to know your decision about the job.
11:19Well, it would help if I knew when you were coming back.
11:22Marilyn, do you want the job or not?
11:24It's totally fine.
11:25I can hire someone else.
11:26Really?
11:26You do that?
11:27I just need your answer by the end of the day, okay?
11:34Justin, I'm not in the mood for another argument.
11:36I'm not here to argue.
11:37Please just listen.
11:38I came to tell you.
11:48You can't go.
11:49Okay?
11:50This is your home.
11:52Your business is here.
11:53Your life.
11:53It's new in my life.
11:55And Theo.
11:57Well, if we've got any hope and save in our marriage, it's not going to happen with you
12:01a thousand miles away.
12:02Is this the marriage that you didn't want any part of?
12:04Okay, so that's not true.
12:06I don't understand.
12:07Justin, I'm giving you the space that you asked for.
12:08Okay, just forget what I said.
12:10Listen, you leaving is never what I wanted.
12:11I didn't...
12:12Well, hey, so you want me to forget what you said?
12:14You want me to listen, but not to everything?
12:15Do you want to just make up your mind?
12:16Hey, hey, for months I've been fighting for you, okay?
12:20For months, and you pushed me away.
12:22You can't turn this around on me now.
12:24Right, okay, so much for not wanting to argue.
12:26Did you come in here deliberately to upset me?
12:28I came here to talk to you.
12:29I don't really see the...
12:30I know, I know.
12:32You two with me.
12:33We're going to sort this out once and for all.
12:46I got you mango.
12:48My favourite, how'd you know?
12:49You just seem like a mango kind of guy.
12:53Prepare to be annihilated.
12:55Go, Izzy, you've already got the home court advantage.
12:56It's not like my boss pays me to stand around and play pool.
13:00Not sure about that.
13:03How'd you know where I worked?
13:05What do you mean?
13:07The drinks.
13:08You sent them here.
13:10Well, you must have mentioned it.
13:13No, I don't think I mentioned anything about my job, too.
13:16Oh, you know what it was?
13:18I must have seen it on your socials.
13:20You look me up.
13:21Yeah, isn't that what people do?
13:23I guess so.
13:25Are you saying you haven't looked me up?
13:26Because that...
13:27That hurts.
13:29Get over yourself.
13:31Sorry if that makes you feel weird.
13:34Yeah, look, to be honest, it does.
13:35A little bit.
13:38It was Isaac's funeral today.
13:41I'm sorry, I didn't know.
13:44That's why I wanted to see you.
13:46I get it.
13:47You need a distraction.
13:49Well, it helps be around someone who understands.
13:53Well, I'm glad I can help them.
13:55Oh, God, I'm so excited.
14:10Thank God, I've had a big city in the years.
14:13I've had so much girls.
14:15I'm so glad I can help you.
14:16Jo?
14:17What?
14:18What?
14:19You have a visitor.
14:24Rom-coms, eh?
14:28Hi.
14:29Hey.
14:30Sorry, I wasn't expecting anyone.
14:31Excuse me, have you ever heard of a text message?
14:34Look at me, I just got out of hospital.
14:35Tony doesn't care how you look.
14:37Yeah, but I do.
14:38Why could you be so smart and so clueless?
14:40I think you look great, by the way.
14:42See?
14:43It's good to see you up on your feet.
14:45Well, I'll leave you to it.
14:47Thanks, mate.
14:50So, um, I heard you and Eddie broke up.
14:54I'm sorry.
14:56Yeah.
14:58Would you like to go for a walk and catch up?
15:02Yeah, I do.
15:04Just not in my pajamas.
15:06I'm not sick.
15:07Yeah.
15:10Righto.
15:11There'll be no interrupting each other, okay?
15:13You'll both get a chance to speak.
15:15Oh, and another thing.
15:16Stick to the facts.
15:18I don't want to see either of you slinging mud.
15:21You got it?
15:25Righto.
15:26Who wants to go first?
15:29Justin can.
15:30Oh, you can.
15:31What if I don't want to?
15:32Justin, why don't you tell Leah why you said that you didn't want to be in the marriage
15:37anymore?
15:41I was upset.
15:44We're supposed to be a team in the moment there's any trouble.
15:46You up and run.
15:48Trouble?
15:49My nephew died.
15:50Let him finish.
15:51Yeah, he did.
15:53And you ran to someone else.
15:56How was I supposed to feel?
15:59Leah?
16:02I don't like when he unfairly shifts the goalpost.
16:05I'm right here.
16:06Mate, mate.
16:08He asks me to lean on him and when I do, he pushes me away.
16:11No, that's not what happened.
16:12Isn't it?
16:13You ask for space.
16:14When I try and give it to you, you won't let me leave.
16:17She's unfairly shifting things around.
16:18I don't know what you want from me.
16:19Ditto.
16:20I don't either.
16:21Righto.
16:22Time out.
16:24Let's all just have a breather, eh?
16:31I won.
16:32It was three games to do.
16:33No, no, no, no.
16:34It was a draw.
16:35Two all.
16:36The first game was a warm up.
16:37Who plays a warm up game?
16:39Okay.
16:40Okay, I'll let you have this one.
16:41But next time I'm playing basketball.
16:42Next time?
16:43Yep.
16:44You'll be lucky.
16:45You not only mean as mates, right?
16:47You know, who doesn't need more friends?
16:49Especially since we've just lost people.
16:52Yeah, true.
16:53That's why I brought you the drinks.
16:55I just wanted to cheer you up.
16:58It did cheer me up.
16:59But don't be surprised if I whip your butt next time.
17:02No chance.
17:03If you bothered to check my socials, you would have seen all my basketball trophies.
17:06Grand final winners, three years running.
17:09I will do that.
17:10I like to check my facts.
17:12Should we get a photo?
17:13Yeah.
17:17Small.
17:22Sorry about that.
17:25Since losing Isaac, I made a promise to myself to always keep memories of the good times.
17:30Hanging out with you has just been so great.
17:34Yeah.
17:36It's been nice.
17:37But I should probably get back to my sister now.
17:40Now.
17:41Have you got time to get something to eat?
17:43No.
17:44Sorry.
17:45I've already been way longer than I said.
17:47Can you text her?
17:48We'll only be another half hour or so.
17:49I need to go.
17:50Yeah.
17:51But I'll see you again, right?
17:52Yeah.
17:53Sure.
17:54I don't even know why we're doing this.
17:55We're just going around in circles.
17:56It's exhausting.
17:57Well, now that we've got all the cards on the table, we can start looking for solutions.
18:09Unlike some people else actually trying to save this marriage.
18:12Mate, was that really necessary?
18:13Well.
18:14You're the one who said you didn't want to be in the marriage in the first place.
18:15Okay.
18:16I said something I shouldn't have.
18:17But you've been acting like you didn't want to be a part of this marriage for months.
18:20Oh, yo, yo, yo.
18:21In fact, I reckon you've been waiting for me to say it so you can use it as an explanation
18:22for me to say it.
18:23I don't even know why we're doing this.
18:24I don't even know why we're doing this.
18:25We're just going around in circles.
18:26It's exhausting.
18:27Well, now that we've got all the cards on the table, we can start looking for solutions.
18:28Unlike some people else actually trying to save this marriage.
18:30Mate, was that really necessary?
18:31Well.
18:32I said something I shouldn't have.
18:33But you've been acting like you didn't want to be a part of this marriage for months.
18:37Oh, yo, yo.
18:38In fact, I reckon you've been waiting for me to say it so you can use it as an excuse
18:42to run.
18:43That's not true.
18:44Okay.
18:45Just pull your head in.
18:46If you'd have come to the grief counsellor like I asked you, none of this would be happening.
18:50If you'd listened to your grief counsellor in the first place, you know that I wasn't
18:53thinking straight after Theo died.
18:55Instead you're using it against me like I'm an evil person or something.
18:58Leah.
18:59Leah.
19:00There she goes.
19:01As soon as there's trouble, ups and runs.
19:13Tell me if you need a break.
19:15No, this is great.
19:17I've spent so much time laying around lately.
19:19Well, you've had a good excuse.
19:22You know, your dad really surprised me earlier.
19:25I bet he did.
19:27Your sister's been on my case too.
19:29Okay, I officially come from the most embarrassing family in the world.
19:33So sorry if they put pressure on you.
19:35I expected it from my sister, not from my dad.
19:39They care about you.
19:41But what I want to know is...
19:43How you feel.
19:45Where's something good going?
19:49Then.
19:50Whenever you showed up, I just...
19:55I was confused.
19:57I'm so sorry for mucking you around.
20:01I chose the wrong guy.
20:03I chose the wrong guy.
20:04I was a waste of time.
20:21Leah just can't accept that her actions are what caused all of this and I'm over it.
20:25The ball's in her court now.
20:27She wants to fix this.
20:28She can come to me.
20:30I'm just going to sit here and chill.
20:32No, mate.
20:33You're not.
20:34Hey?
20:35The only reason you and Leah can behave like this is because you've got a revolving door here.
20:40Well, that ends now.
20:41You said I could stay as long as I need.
20:43I changed my mind.
20:44Mate, come on.
20:45I'm fair dinkum, Justin.
20:46Pack your bags, go home and sort out your marriage.
20:49Consider this an eviction notice.
20:59This is nice.
21:01What is?
21:02This.
21:03In public.
21:04Oh, um, we...
21:06Um...
21:07Will you be home for dinner?
21:09Probably not.
21:12Look at that.
21:13A red wine and beer, please.
21:14No way.
21:15Not until you tell me what's going on.
21:16Can I do anything to help?
21:17Nothing.
21:18Absolutely nothing.
21:19I am cooking for my girlfriend.
21:20She doesn't need to lift the finger.
21:22Your girlfriend?
21:23Is that a problem?
21:25No.
