00:01Closer each day
00:04Home and away
00:08If I have cancer, you'd need to have a biopsy to determine whether the tumour's cancerous or not.
00:14I'm going to transfer a million dollars into your account. I need you to promise me that if anything happens
00:18to me, you'll take care of Eden and Sonny.
00:20You're in some kind of trouble?
00:21I have a brain tumour. You have to promise me you won't tell Eden.
00:24The doctors are really happy with Justin's progress.
00:27If all goes to plan, he should be getting out of hospital soon.
00:30Did he tell you that?
00:32No. No, he still doesn't want to see me.
00:34How are fairy lights going to change the situation we're in?
00:37I just thought they would brighten up.
00:38You know what? I need you to leave.
00:39How many times did you tell me that Justin was there for me?
00:43She loves you. Don't you think now more than ever you're there by your side?
00:47She's a pretty special person to have around.
00:51Let me explain.
00:52Here you are at Sunny's bedside again.
00:54It's not what it looks like.
00:56It was a misunderstanding. Please, Alf, make him see that.
01:00Well, come on. Do you want to get out of here or not?
01:03Thing is, I wasn't planning on going home.
01:05What do you think about that?
01:06I really don't care right now.
01:12Could you tell I was nervous during the appointment?
01:15Yes. I did not stop talking.
01:18I'm sorry.
01:18No, I do apologise, but, you know, everything's going well.
01:22You can relax. You're healthy. The pregnancy's going well.
01:25You know, I can't wait for a bout of morning sickness.
01:28You can't wait for hours of horrendous nausea?
01:30Yes, I just want a normal, boring pregnancy.
01:35Also, I can't wait for the 12 weeks to be done so I can start telling everyone.
01:38Yeah, me too.
01:40It's going to fly by.
01:42That doesn't mean we can't celebrate in secret.
01:44Then we both have the rest of the day free, right?
01:46You read my mind. Just us. Zero distractions.
01:52Maria?
01:54Hey, are you okay?
01:55Sorry, I've been to them while I was away.
01:57Oh, that's okay. Did Justin get home alright?
01:59Sorry?
02:00After he was discharged from the hospital.
02:03Right, um, yes. Yeah, he, um, I'm just letting him rest.
02:07Oh, I'll give him our love. I will.
02:09See ya.
02:15Hello? Oh, Justin! Hi!
02:19Shouldn't you be in hospital?
02:20Uh, the doctors gave me the all clear.
02:22I just need to take it easy.
02:24Oh, that's wonderful.
02:26So, um...
02:27He'll be staying with us.
02:29Right!
02:30Well, that's good.
02:31Do you know how long for?
02:34Trying to get rid of me already?
02:35No, no, no.
02:36We love having our friends to stay.
02:38I'm just wondering about Leah.
02:40Okay, so you may as well hear it from me first,
02:43but I have no intention of going home.
02:46We'll see how it pans out.
02:48Does she know about this?
02:50No.
02:51And it's better that way.
02:53I'll, um, pack your bag up to your room.
02:56Cheers for yourself.
02:59I'd better make you a cup of tea before I go back to work.
03:02Yeah?
03:03Thanks, Maz.
03:03No worries.
03:09Well, what exactly did the doctors say?
03:13Did they take a biopsy?
03:15Is it cancerous?
03:16It's just...
03:17Ease up.
03:18Last thing I know is all these questions.
03:19Isn't it important to get on top of this?
03:21It's being dealt with.
03:23No one needs to worry about me,
03:24which is exactly why you cannot tell Eden.
03:28I don't think I can keep something this big from her.
03:31You can, mate.
03:32Okay?
03:33I'm asking you to.
03:35Sunny's going to need her.
03:37She's going to want to look after the both of you.
03:40I haven't told you in the first place
03:41because I know that you'll do the right thing with the money.
03:46You two look serious?
03:48Yeah, Sunny.
03:51Right, yeah.
03:53Poor guy, I still can't believe it.
03:56He's going to need all our support.
03:58Yeah.
03:59Yeah, we'll be there for him, for sure.
04:03Okay, what's going on with you?
04:06I don't know if you're aware,
04:07but it's kind of been a messed up time lately.
04:11So you are still upset about the crash?
04:13Our mate might end up in a wheelchair.
04:16Can we just focus on him?
04:17Please?
04:19Yeah.
04:20Of course.
04:23This is where we're at.
04:24Uh-huh.
04:25What are we throwing out?
04:26All the stuff pregnant women can't eat,
04:28so sadly, all the really delicious things.
04:31I'm sure I can still rustle up something edible.
04:35Or...
04:37maybe we could work up an appetite first.
04:42Hello? Is anyone home?
04:43In here.
04:46Hey, what's up?
04:47Hey.
04:48Hi.
04:49Sorry to interrupt.
04:50I, um, wanted to talk to you about some medical stuff.
04:53It's important.
04:54Sure.
04:55You know, I'm going to go and freshen up.
04:57Hope I'm not kicking you out.
04:58No!
05:01Sorry.
05:04Can I get you something?
05:04Do you want to sit down?
05:05No, no, no.
05:05It's okay.
05:07Um...
05:08I, uh...
05:08I just heard about Sonny.
05:10Right.
05:12Sonny.
05:12Yeah.
05:13Just tell me.
05:15Is there any chance of him walking again?
05:20That's a question I can't answer.
05:26How's Rumi doing in all this?
05:29Good question.
05:31He's just...
05:32being so weird and distant.
05:33I don't...
05:34I don't know what's going on with him.
05:35Why don't I come back with you?
05:37Have a chat to him.
05:38See what I can find out?
05:39Really?
05:39Mm.
05:40You seem worried.
05:42And he was my passion.
05:44That would actually be amazing.
05:46Mm-hmm.
05:48Yeah.
05:53Hi, darling.
05:54Sorry I'm a bit late.
05:55Haven't even noticed.
05:57Well, it's not that busy.
05:58I mean, you can take a break if you like.
06:00Take as long as you need.
06:01Do you know what I just found out?
06:03Mm-hmm.
06:03Justin has been discharged from hospital.
06:05Really?
06:06That's...
06:06good for his recovery.
06:09Sure.
06:09But...
06:10I wouldn't have known had I not pumped into Levi.
06:13I just assumed that once he was better he was going to come home.
06:16Oh, really?
06:17No, I did ask for space.
06:19I'm his wife.
06:19Not even a text.
06:21I don't even know where he is.
06:22I'm worried about him.
06:23Has he gone to a motel on his own?
06:25Just gotta check these tables out the back.
06:29Marilyn.
06:29Hmm?
06:31We've been friends for a long time.
06:32Yes.
06:33So I can tell when there's something that you're not telling me.
06:37Look, I didn't want to keep this from you, but Justin insisted.
06:41On what?
06:43He's staying with us.
06:49Mate, didn't the doctors tell you to take it easy?
06:52Oh, just doing my bit.
06:54Not gonna bludge while I'm here.
06:56Well, you can do your bit by not risking your recovery.
07:00Righto.
07:01I might go upstairs and take a quick nap.
07:04Why didn't you let me know you were getting out of hospital?
07:06Leah, you're not supposed to be here yet.
07:08I've been patient enough.
07:09Isn't it obvious I am avoiding you?
07:13So how long are you planning on living here?
07:15As long as Alpha Marilyn will have me.
07:17And I don't get a say in this?
07:18No, you don't get a say.
07:19Not after what you've done.
07:20I tried to explain.
07:21At the hospital.
07:22But what's to explain, Leah?
07:23Okay, were you or were you not by Sunny's bedside?
07:26I was.
07:27I went there to help fix this one day.
07:28I don't want to hear excuses.
07:30I just, I need you to go.
07:32Righto.
07:32Why don't we all sit down and talk this out over a cuppa?
07:35Great idea.
07:36I'd love that.
07:37Well, I'm gonna leave you to it.
08:05I'd love you to.
08:07I'm gonna leave you to the camera.
08:08Oh, my God.
08:09You've got plan.
08:10Tell me you're gonna do the right thing.
08:12Tell me you're gonna look after yourself.
08:14I am.
08:15I don't need to worry.
08:18I don't like keeping things from Eden, right?
08:23Since you've been to hell and back lately,
08:26I'm gonna keep you secret.
08:54Kick him out.
08:57Come again?
08:58Please.
08:59It'll leave Justin no choice but to come home.
09:03You've stayed here.
09:04And these doors will always be open to friends who need a bed.
09:08And I don't know.
09:08I respect you for that but I don't know if my marriage could handle many more blows.
09:13What chance do we have if we can't even be in the same room?
09:16Just give him more time like you agreed.
09:19How much more does he need?
09:23If I'm honest, I still don't really understand why you went back to see Sonny again.
09:29I went to help Dana.
09:31To help try and fix things between him and Dana.
09:35If Justin would let me just explain, it's not like it was before.
09:38You think that's gonna make any difference?
09:40It has to.
09:41I'm not gonna let my marriage fall off a cliff over a misunderstanding.
09:47Okay.
09:49I'll talk to him.
09:55You can stay.
09:59Not you.
10:03Or you.
10:04Bye.
10:13Well, it looks like seafood is a menu for the foreseeable future.
10:22I just hope you appreciate all these sacrifices one day.
10:33I'm gonna text Mackenzie, tell her this is taking longer than I expected.
10:39Did he say where he was going?
10:41Just for a walk.
10:42How did Remy seem?
10:44Uh, I don't know.
10:45The same.
10:48Maybe we can try again tomorrow.
10:49No, it's fine, I'll stay.
10:54Ah, finally.
10:57What's going on?
10:59Levi wants to speak with you.
11:01We'll have to wait, I've got stuff.
11:02Oh, I like what? Come on.
11:04It won't take long.
11:05Yeah, just let my bro do his doctor thing.
11:08Why would I need a doctor?
11:09Because you haven't been yourself, and I don't think that you're being totally honest about why.
11:14Please, if you're not gonna talk to me, then at least talk to someone.
11:19Please.
11:19Fine.
11:22Outside, please.
11:34Did I push him too hard?
11:36Maybe we should let him deal with whatever he's going through at his own pace.
11:41Did he say anything to you while I was gone?
11:44No.
11:44Not a word.
11:47Yeah, well, hopefully Levi can get through to him.
11:50I thought I made myself crystal clear.
11:52I'm not interested in discussing this.
11:55I get that you needed some time with the diagnosis, but the tumor isn't magically gonna go away.
12:00I'm dealing with it.
12:01By not dealing with it?
12:03Thanks for the mental health check, Doc.
12:05Well, I'm concerned about that too.
12:06Denial is a common response to someone in-
12:08Well, who said I'm in denial?
12:11Well, you haven't even let me give you a referral for the specialist.
12:15It's pretty telling you haven't told Eden about this either.
12:17Yeah, because she's already got a mate in hospital.
12:20She doesn't need this too.
12:24So you do know how serious this is?
12:28It is what it is.
12:29Mate, I could get hit by a bus or even a train.
12:33I sweat the small stuff.
12:34Remi.
12:37Stop being such an idiot, okay?
12:40We've managed to find the tumor while it's still relatively small.
12:44But it's not gonna stay that way forever.
12:46That is a fact.
12:48The longer you leave it, the more complicated it is gonna get to deal with.
12:52And the worse it gets for you.
12:56You're not gonna scare me into doing what you want.
13:02Gambling with your life.
13:04Book an appointment.
13:05Today.
13:22Leah's been gone for ages.
13:27If me living here is putting you in a hard spot, I can make other arrangements, mate.
13:32I'm gonna tell you what I told her.
13:35She came here when she needed a place to stay.
13:37And you'll always be welcome too.
13:40Means a lot.
13:42I don't know how close you two are.
13:45I care about the period.
13:46That's what makes this so flaming hard to watch.
13:51Hi.
13:52Hey, love.
13:52Just thought I'd pop back and see how everyone is.
13:55Leah showed up.
13:56Real mystery how she knew I was here.
13:59Yep, that's all me.
13:59Come on, Maz.
14:00I told you I didn't want her to know.
14:02She's my friend, okay?
14:04I can't lie to her.
14:05Marilyn obviously didn't tell her out of malice.
14:08I don't want tech sides.
14:10I know, I know.
14:10I'm sorry.
14:12It's not you I'm fed up with.
14:14Leah should have respected the agreement we had.
14:18She might have had a pretty fair reason for coming over.
14:22I mean, you could have told yourself you were staying here.
14:25Yeah, I could have.
14:26I just didn't want to hear more excuses.
14:30If this is about that Sonny thing, at least give her a chance to explain.
14:34I don't care why she was there.
14:35You know, she's been treating me like the enemy for months.
14:38And she says one thing and then does the complete opposite.
14:43I don't trust her anymore.
14:52What are you doing?
14:54Guys, cheers for everything, but I don't need anyone looking after me anymore.
14:58Wait, what?
14:58Where are you going to go?
14:59Yeah.
14:59Go back to the studio.
15:01I'm grateful for you guys letting me stay here.
15:03But it's time.
15:04I need my own space to get my head right.
15:06Look, I get that things have been hectic, but these are the times you need your mates around.
15:11Yeah, I'll call you if I need you.
15:13Remy, you can't just leave.
15:14Mate, if this is really what you want, then we're not going to stop you.
15:17Will we?
15:21Just promise me if you need anything, you will reach out.
15:25Yes, I will call you.
15:25Yeah, and if you change your mind, there is always a room here for you.
15:28I appreciate that.
15:29Look, I'm going to go.
15:30I'll see you later.
15:31See you, mate.
15:38Why didn't you back me up?
15:40Because he's obviously made up his mind.
15:42Now I'm just going to worry about him even more.
15:44Then we just have to trust that he knows what he's doing.
15:55Hey, there you are.
15:56Hey, sorry.
15:57Remy took way longer than I expected.
15:58Oh, is he okay?
16:00Yeah, yeah, for now.
16:01Anyway, let's get back to us.
16:02No more distractions, I promise.
16:03Okay.
16:04So, how are you going to make it up to me?
16:07Mmm, date night in Yummy Creek.
16:08Love that.
16:10But can we really be bothered going all the way to Yummy Creek?
16:12Hmm.
16:13So?
16:14Date night in the business I own.
16:16Wow.
16:17Talk about the height of romance, Romeo.
16:19Okay.
16:20How about you just leave the romance to me?
16:22Fine.
16:23Okay.
16:23But be discreet.
16:24No one can know our lives are about to change.
16:26Got it.
16:28Alright, should I get changed and then we go?
16:29Mmm.
16:30Okay.
16:57Hi.
16:58I have a referral from Dr Levi Fillion.
17:00Fowler from the Northern Districts Hospital.
17:05Yeah, it's urgent.
17:11Alf obviously hasn't managed to get through to Justin.
17:13Well, Mr. Stewart doesn't usually give up that easy.
17:16So why haven't I heard anything?
17:18Maybe you should be more patient.
17:20I've owned the fact that I've messed up,
17:22and he just wants to punish me.
17:25Maybe he's just hurting.
17:26And I'm not.
17:27No, no, you are.
17:28I know you are.
17:29I'm sorry.
17:30Here we go.
17:31Enjoy.
17:32Thanks.
17:34Let me get on with the salads.
17:35All I'm asking for is a mature conversation with my husband.
17:39Is that too much to ask?
17:40No.
17:41He's being so vindictive.
17:43I wouldn't go that far.
17:44Really?
17:44What would you call it then?
17:46Stonewalling?
17:46Cutting me out of his life?
17:47Leah, stop.
17:49He tried to explain to you how you were making him feel,
17:52and you didn't listen.
17:53I can see whose side you're on.
17:54No, it's not about sides.
17:55I'm not taking sides.
17:56Just because you apologise to Justin
17:58doesn't suddenly make up for how much you hurt him.
18:04By digging your heels in,
18:06you're denying her the very thing you've always wanted.
18:09Which is?
18:10The chance to talk everything out.
18:14I have tried, Alf.
18:17And there comes a point where it's Althea to give up.
18:21Just try and remember back to how you felt about each other before Theo died.
18:27All of that love, it doesn't just disappear.
18:31I'm not saying it does.
18:32So, isn't it worth fighting for?
18:42Well, we've seen days where there was no...
18:47Wow.
18:48Very nice.
18:49After you.
18:50You've done very well, Doctor.
18:53Oh, thank you.
18:55So, non-alcoholic bubbles for the mother to be?
18:57Oh, yes, please.
18:59And you know what?
18:59I wouldn't begrudge you an actual beer.
19:00No, no, no, no.
19:01We're in this together.
19:03You know, we need to come up with a cover story
19:05because it really looks like we're celebrating.
19:09Which, I know we are.
19:11Okay, we just say we're toasting
19:14to the first successful Picard transplant into a human recipient.
19:18Oh, I really do need a book.
19:22Who is it?
19:23Abby.
19:24Oh.
19:25Tonight's about us.
19:26Oh.
19:29Marley is asking,
19:30why is the fridge half empty?
19:33Exactly how pregnancy-ready did you make the kitchen?
19:35I may have gone overboard,
19:37but, like you, I'm going to ignore it too.
19:39Oh.
19:40Oh.
19:40Oh, that's for us.
19:41Thank you, sir.
19:42Compliments to the chef.
19:43Mm.
19:44What's the need for the doubt that I could bring the romance?
19:46All your favourite seafood?
19:48It's just...
19:49smell.
19:50Mark?
19:51You're okay?
19:52Oh.
19:53Sorry.
19:54Oh.
19:57Oh.
19:58Oh.
19:59Oh.
20:07Hi, Samar.
20:09Oh.
20:11Oh.
20:11Oh, don't you see?
20:13It's just...
20:15evening sickness.
20:16Just a normal, boring pregnancy.
20:19Oh.
20:20Are we really celebrating the fact that you just vomited?
20:23Yeah.
20:25We really are.
20:26Mm-hmm.
20:39What are you doing here?
20:42Alf reckons you deserve a conversation.
20:45It's...
20:46It's all I'm asking for.
20:47You made me think pretty heavily about...
20:50our history together.
20:52I haven't stopped thinking about us either.
20:55And it made me realise...
20:58I don't think I want to be in this marriage anymore.
21:13I can't believe this.
21:14What are the odds?
21:15I don't know how I would have got through that day without you.
21:18You took the time to talk to me when I was freaking out.
21:21I should probably get back to the hospital and see my sister.
21:24I was hoping I could take you out for dinner.
21:26It kind of feels like this is meant to be.
21:28I just want to know you're okay.
21:29Yeah, I'm fine.
21:30I just...
21:31I need you to leave me alone.
21:32Lacey?
21:32Please.
21:33You all right?
21:34Yeah.
21:34Yeah.
