00:08I was hoping he'd back off, but it's been pretty clear that he's been watching me.
00:13Is that him?
00:15Holden's made a booking at Salt for a romantic dinner for two.
00:18I just came to tell you that she's not coming.
00:20Why not?
00:20Because she's not interested in you, and she never will be.
00:23Go home, and don't come back, or should I call the police?
00:30Hey Lys, why don't we sit down?
00:32I don't want to sit down.
00:33I want to know how you got in.
00:34Your friends are getting in the way of our relationship, Lysi.
00:37What are you talking about?
00:38I'm falling in love with you.
00:41Wow.
00:43If you really, really care about me, don't you?
00:46Yes.
00:46Yes, I do.
00:48Okay, well, why don't we have a do-over of last night?
00:52Maybe we can have brunch at all?
00:53Yes.
00:54I'd love that.
00:55Yeah?
00:55I can't tell you how happy I am.
00:56We can finally be together now.
00:58No, Holden, I'm sorry, but that's not happening.
01:01What do you mean?
01:02I am not your girlfriend, and I don't want to be your girlfriend.
01:06Lysi!
01:06Stop!
01:07Get away from me.
01:08Just walk, Lysi.
01:11Oh!
01:12Oh!
01:13Oh!
01:13Get your hands off her!
01:15Are you alright?
01:16Yeah.
01:17Oi!
01:17Ah!
01:18Ah!
01:19Ah!
01:20Ah!
01:20Ah!
01:21Ah!
01:22Ah!
01:22Ah!
01:32Ah!
01:32Ah!
01:33Ah!
01:33David, hi!
01:34Hey, Hubba!
01:36Ah!
01:37Ah!
01:37Ah!
01:37Ah!
01:37Ah!
01:37Ah!
01:38Ah!
01:39Ah!
01:40was out of line. Apology accepted. It's a stressful time for everyone. I don't suppose
01:47you have an update on the search for my mother? Have you found anything that could link her
01:51to the drugs? As cash? I haven't heard from him. Well, if you're not going to share your
01:56intel, I'm not going to share mine. I didn't know police work was tit for tat. Look, you
02:02know the content of my investigation is off limits. I just want to know if there's anything
02:08that I can do to help clear Tane's name. Trust me. I've been at the station all night, working
02:13every lead. I appreciate that. Thanks. I'd better get back to work. Holden! Stop it! Leave him
02:28alone, Holden. Don't! No, don't! Stop! Please! Stop, guys! Stop! Let's get you out of here.
02:36Wait! Wait! What about Molly? Trust me. He can look after himself.
02:50Hey! Hey, hey, hey! Guys, enough!
02:55Out of there! Enough! Enough!
02:58You're going to regret this. I guarantee I won't.
03:04What are we doing this time?
03:08So, how does he even know where you leave? Look, I didn't think he did. Oh, God, I'm such
03:13an idiot. No, no, no, no, you're not... But no, no, no, he's been following me for weeks.
03:16What? He's got all of these photos of me. Oh, Lacey, that's insane. I mean, I'm so sorry.
03:21He just got so angry and it's all my fault. No, how is this your fault? Because he started
03:25to get aggressive and I didn't know what to do and so I just, I went along with him. Yeah,
03:29of course you did because you were scared. Yeah, but now I've given him the wrong impression
03:32again. No, no, no, that guy already had the wrong impression, okay? You did what you had
03:35to do to get him out of your house. Hey. Are you okay? Yeah, I'm okay. You okay? I'm fine.
03:41Where's your first aid, kid? Seriously, I'm good. See, I told you you could handle himself.
03:46Thank you so much for stepping in. I don't know what I would have done if you hadn't.
03:51What do we do now? We go to the police. No, no, no, I'm not getting my dad. Lacey,
03:55you have to tell him. Holden is going to keep coming back. This is completely up to you.
04:01I think that Levi's right about this. I don't know what to do. It's okay. It's okay. You
04:07don't have to make a decision right now. You need to be somewhere you feel safe. Yeah. Well,
04:12I don't think we can go home right now. I agree. I don't think you should stay here either.
04:18Well, wherever you want to go, I'll take you. Holden always talked about how much he missed
04:24Isaac and how he, he wanted to move forward with his life. I mean, he seemed like he was
04:28being honest. He might have been telling the truth. You think so? The trauma that he went
04:35through in the crash and after, it can make people do crazy things. I'm by no means trying
04:42to justify what he did though. Cause what he did was unacceptable. Maybe I should have
04:47just talked to him more, you know, talk to him more about his friend and about the crash,
04:51everything he's been through. Listen, let's just sit down for a second.
05:08Look, I know better than most what it's like to lose someone close to you.
05:14Listen, none of this is your responsibility. I can't begin to imagine what goes through a guy's head to
05:22make him think that any of this is okay because it's not. No matter how messed up he is,
05:29this is on him and him alone.
05:36Yeah. Excuse me. Hi. Can you help me please? Holden? Sir. It's okay. I've got this.
05:42What happened to you? I need a report on assault. Well, before we do any paperwork,
05:46let's get you sorted with some further. No, no, I'm fine. I'm fine. I just want to make sure the
05:49guy
05:49who did this doesn't hurt anyone else. Do you have a name? Yeah. It was Marley Hudson.
05:56Oh my God. I can't believe I left you by yourself. I should have came inside and made sure you're
06:01okay. I'm so sorry. No, no, no, no, none of this is your fault. This is all on Holden.
06:07She wanted to come see you. Of course. Come here. Come and sit down. Okay? Okay.
06:12You'll be all right here. Yeah, she's fine. You can go. Thank you. Let me know if you need anything.
06:19It's okay. You can breathe easy. Clancy, I can't believe that he was in your home.
06:25It would have been so terrifying. Are you okay? Yeah, yeah. I'm okay. Are you sure? Yeah. Yeah.
06:30Hey, come here. Come here. It's all right. It's okay. It's okay. It's all right. Are you sure you're okay?
06:44Yeah. He threw a lot of punches, but he had no idea what he was doing. Yeah. Lucky for you.
06:51Oh, Lacey's tired to you. Should we tell him? No, she didn't want us to. Okay.
06:59Afternoon, Sergeant. Afternoon. You should get back to work. Yeah. Not so fast.
07:04What happened to your knuckles? Nothing you need to worry about. I was told you assaulted some.
07:10Of course. Holden went straight to you guys. He said the attack was unprovoked. Okay,
07:14well, that's not true at all. Matt. No, Holden was the one who started it. Is this true? Molly.
07:25Right. I need you to come to the station. Give me your side of the story. Do I have to?
07:29Well, if you don't, all I've got to go on is a statement from the victim.
07:33The victim? Okay, Molly didn't do anything wrong. If he didn't step in,
07:36things out there could have gotten so much worse. No, look, it's it. It's all right.
07:43I'll go to the station with you. Excellent decision.
08:01The way he was going on about us, like he is convinced that we belong together.
08:08Lacey, we have to tell your dad about this. No, no, no. It's gone on for too long. The guy
08:13is delusional and dangerous. I can't. The amount of pressure that my dad is under right now with
08:19the drug case image, you're barely speaking because of it. Lacey, it's really sweet that
08:23you're worried about your dad and I get that things are tricky with your sister. No, no,
08:26I don't want to put him on his plate. He won't care about that. He just wants you to be
08:30safe.
08:31You're not safe. Today has proved that your dad is the only one with the power to change that.
08:37You have to tell him. You have to. This shouldn't take long. Just need your version of events.
08:47That's me asking you to explain what happened today.
08:54Look, I was at work. And? Mackenzie came and told me he was causing trouble.
09:03She was referring to Holden Dwyer? Yes. What kind of trouble?
09:07He was being a creep. To Mackenzie? No. Then to who? To you?
09:21Who to? Marley. Who? Lacey.
09:33What do you know about Holden? I know he and Lacey are friends.
09:40No, they're not friends. The guy won't leave her alone. What do you mean? He's obsessed.
09:48Oh, is that your take on the situation? No, it's hers as well.
09:53Look, she asked him to stop talking to her and the guy just keeps on showing up.
09:58You need to talk to Lacey about it. You need to lock the guy up straight away. He's totally unhinged.
10:08Hey, sorry. Where have you been?
10:10I had a work call after I dropped Lacey off. Come on! What's wrong?
10:15Oh, this stupid thing won't reset. Seriously, why aren't you working?
10:19Do you want some help? I don't care. I don't care about the stupid machine.
10:22Can you please just drop me to the police station? Yeah. Why?
10:25Holden accused Marley of assault. Did he?
10:28Mm-hmm. Marley's with the cops right now and I feel like I need to be there to let them
10:31know that he was defending Lacey.
10:33Don't stress. It's gonna be fine. Don't do that, babe. Don't tell me not to stress.
10:35Hey, listen to me. You've got enough going on here. So why don't you let me go? I'll see what's
10:40going on. All right? Please?
10:42Fine. But just let them know exactly who's to blame. I'll channel Mayuna Mackenzie.
10:46Thank you. Thank you.
10:47I'll give you an update as soon as I can. Hi. Hello. Hey. How's it going?
10:53I need a drink. Something strong. You and me both.
10:57Please don't tell me you had more bad news about Tana.
10:59Mm-mm.
11:02Marley.
11:05Can you please call me back, Lacey? Marley told me about Holden and I need to know you're okay.
11:12David. Have you got Marley here?
11:14Yeah, I'm just about to let him go. Great, because you didn't do anything wrong.
11:18How do you know? I saw the fight. I broke it up. Believe me when I say Holden was the
11:23aggressive one.
11:24Hey, do you know what the fight was about?
11:28Marley said it was about Lacey. Did he?
11:30Yeah, he did. Look, I don't know the full story, but Marley and Abigail have been dealing with it for
11:36a long time.
11:38Have you had much to do with this Holden? Not really, but Lacey told me everything he's done.
11:44The guy sounds obsessive and dangerous. Do you know where she's now?
11:50She wanted to see Leah, so I walked her to the diner. She's safe.
11:55Thanks, mate.
11:56Of course. Can I take Marley?
11:58Yeah.
12:05So, David really kicked Cash off the case?
12:09And he's going to hate sitting back and doing nothing.
12:11He's taken leave.
12:13How does Tana feel about that?
12:14Well, he's not happy to lose the one cop in his corner.
12:16Oh, from what I've heard, I haven't spoken to Tana in a while.
12:21What? Why?
12:22Oh, you know, I'm just trying to stay out of the way.
12:25What aren't you telling me?
12:29Well, what?
12:33You think it might be my mum that planted the drugs in Archie's cot?
12:38Your mum?
12:38They had a confrontation the day that Tana was arrested, and I haven't been able to get in contact with
12:44her since.
12:45I know, I know. I've been beating myself up about it, but Cash is onto it.
12:50Sorry, sorry. So this whole time, you never once thought, oh, I should mention this to Mackenzie?
12:54Well, Cash knows. That's why he's taken leave. He's looking into it and trying to track down her supplier.
13:00It's just a theory.
13:01Yeah, but it's not just a theory, though, is it? Because Cash is pursuing it.
13:05It's just unbelievable. You are unbelievable.
13:09It's complicated, Mackenzie.
13:10No, it doesn't seem complicated, Hubba. It seems very simple.
13:13Everything that is happening to Tana is because of you.
13:16You knew that your mum was trouble. You knew that she was irresponsible,
13:20and you knew that Tana wanted her nowhere near him or Archie.
13:23I tortured myself enough over this. I don't need you piling it on to...
13:26Okay, well, if you don't want to hear it, then you can get out.
13:29You're not serious.
13:30I am serious. Actually, this is my place of business,
13:33and I have a right to refuse service, and I am exercising that right.
13:36As of now, get out.
13:39Do not come back in here again.
14:00I feel bad about dumping lacing in it.
14:03My father needed to know.
14:06Oh, good. You're back.
14:09Please tell me that you weren't charged.
14:11Nah. Once David found out about holding, harassing Lacey, he got the picture.
14:16Oh. Molly, that's sorry. That's such a relief. Sorry.
14:20Um, and so what? So David knows everything then?
14:23Yeah. He wasn't happy when he found out he was left in the dark about it all.
14:27And where's Lacey?
14:28She's probably still with Leah.
14:29Hmm. Probably angry with me.
14:31Molly, you did the right thing. This is way past the point of the police not knowing.
14:35Yeah, and at least now they can focus on locking up a real criminal,
14:38and not someone who's been framed by a malicious monster.
14:41Whoa. What are you talking about?
14:44I just had an argument with Harper and had to kick her out of salt.
14:47You kicked her out.
14:48Why? What did she do?
14:52Leah, no, no. Don't bring her here. I'll be there as soon as I can. Thanks.
14:59David, please tell me that you've made some progress for Tana's case.
15:02I don't have time for this.
15:03This morning you said you were working every lead. That means you have a lead on my mother, right?
15:07Please don't make me go through this with you again.
15:09I just need to know that you're getting somewhere.
15:11All you need to know is that I'm doing everything in my power to work this case,
15:15and I'd get a lot more done if you got off my back.
15:17Well, what do you expect me to do? Sit by a pool and sip a cocktail
15:20while Tana's locked up for a crime he didn't commit?
15:22These things take time. I can't conjure evidence out of thin air.
15:25Well, then let me help you. What can I do to help find my mother?
15:28Investigating is my job, not yours.
15:30David, this is the father of my son that we're talking about.
15:33Do you want my son to grow up without the one man who'd do anything for him?
15:38I understand your frustration. I get it. But I don't have anything for you.
15:43I'm doing the best I can.
15:48I'm sorry. But I'll be back.
15:52Papa.
15:56I appreciate you wanting to protect your son.
16:00Archie's lucky to have a mum like you.
16:14I can't believe Marley told him everything.
16:16I'm glad that he did.
16:17He's freaking out.
16:19He was worried when I spoke to him on the phone, but that's because he cares.
16:23Think about the bigger picture. Your dad can help in a way the rest of us can't.
16:27I guess so.
16:37Lacey.
16:38I'm fine.
16:39You okay?
16:39Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm fine.
16:43Mixer will be after him.
16:44Of course.
16:45I'm here if you need anything, can't I?
16:46I need you.
16:48I mean, why didn't you tell me?
16:50I guess you were so busy with John Tarnay, Dad.
16:53That's not a reason.
17:00I see.
17:01Well, it's just I'm always the problem child.
17:03That is not true.
17:04This isn't the first time that I've gotten myself in a situation like this with a guy.
17:08None of that matters.
17:10It's just I thought he was lonely.
17:13I thought he was grieving and I just I don't understand how I got this so wrong.
17:18Don't blame yourself.
17:21None of this is your fault.
17:24Yeah, but I should have handled things differently.
17:26All you should have done is told me about it as soon as you felt unsafe.
17:35I'm sorry.
17:40I will not let him hurt you.
17:53We sat all around, bare feet on the ground.
17:57Lights slow in the room, singing out of tune.
18:01Your friends by your side, my friends knew that I was under your spell.
18:06You never could tell.
18:09My smile can't hide the thought of you right by my side.
18:17I tried, no lie.
18:20I knew I wanted you that night.
18:43This AVO will stop Holden Dwyer coming anywhere near you.
18:47It will also prevent him from contacting you or making any more threats.
18:52If he follows it.
18:54If he doesn't, there'll be serious consequences.
18:59What if the AVO tips him over the edge, makes him even more dangerous?
19:02He's already over the edge.
19:06Yeah.
19:08You're right.
19:12This needs to stop.
19:14Exactly.
19:26So how does this work?
19:28We'll get the order drawn up, serve it to him now.
19:31Okay.
19:31I don't know where he lives.
19:32I do.
19:34In a couple of days, there'll be a court appearance and it will all become official.
19:39Okay.
19:41I want to get moving on this, if that's okay.
19:44Yeah, of course.
19:45I'll get one of the constables to drive you home.
19:49Hey, Dad.
19:55Under no circumstances should this be happening to you or anyone else.
20:00Yeah.
20:01Yeah.
20:02I'm proud of you and the courage you're showing.
20:19I'm proud of you.
20:28Jo?
20:57She thought it was over.
21:00I was hoping he'd back off, but he's not listening.
21:03And now it's gone to this whole other level.
21:05We are not playing games.
21:07The guy is dangerous.
21:09Will he stop?
21:12I just want to talk.
21:14Get out!
21:14Home and Away, Monday on 7.
