00:00I'm circling
00:04Previously on Shortland Street
00:06Let's just be together
00:07And forget about everything else
00:09Yes
00:11She left her last job because she had an affair with the boss
00:14There is something really wrong with you
00:22What the hell?
00:23He can't just kick you out
00:24He can and he did
00:25On what grounds?
00:26Can you just chuck...
00:27Violet complains
00:28No
00:28Don't you want to fight this?
00:30Look, I still want to have a baby, right?
00:31So I still need his damn clinic
00:33Yeah, but he's...
00:34And if I rock the boat, he won't let me back in the door again
00:37I can't afford IVF by myself
00:39This opportunity, I need it
00:41Okay
00:43Well, we're really lucky to have you back
00:48Libby
00:49Dot my man
00:51Hey, Marty, I didn't see you there
00:53Well, you left pretty early this morning
00:55I'm just waiting to book a man with a van, so...
00:58A van?
00:58But you literally turned up with one box
01:02Oh, well, well, well
01:04If it isn't the Ross and Rachel of Shoreland Street back together after all
01:08Ross and Rachel?
01:09They're on and off again, like the stylishnessness of skinny jeans
01:13Do I have to educate you on everything?
01:14HRD reports are due by midday, please team
01:16Oh, look
01:17You guys are back together again
01:19Can you please tell David?
01:20That you're back together
01:21That the HRD reports are due
01:22Oh, so you're not denying it
01:23We're not together
01:24So you're back together?
01:26No, let it go, Libby
01:27Mine doesn't suit you
01:32Izzy, I've got you in theatre four for a couple of appendectomies
01:35And Phil, you're in theatre one
01:36Mrs. Aholele's lab colleague
01:37Sounds good
01:40Edie
01:40I can go
01:42I want you up here, but
01:43I can handle it
01:44You're rusted on with Izzy
01:45I trust that's going to be okay
01:47Of course
01:51Do I have to get a poster card printed or something?
01:53Some empathy would do
01:56Sorry, okay?
01:57I didn't know what she'd been through
01:58It was that bad
01:59Exactly
02:00And instead of trying to understand it better
02:02Like a normal person
02:03Use the scraps of what you did know
02:04To be an absolute troll to her
02:05Well, but she's
02:06And you're still trying to defend yourself
02:08No
02:08I'm hanging on by a thread here, Grayson
02:10Be better
02:16Thank you so much for keeping it quiet
02:18Libby's worse than a sniffer dog
02:23I know it's hard for Selina
02:25But it's inevitable when we all work together
02:27Oh, it's not just that
02:29I don't want her involved in his clinic
02:33Maybe I should try and warn her somehow
02:35No, don't go getting involved
02:37Well, subtly
02:38Just until we know what he's doing in there
02:40It could be nothing
02:41Or everything
02:42I know you care
02:43But you can't tip Selina off
02:45Not until we have something concrete
02:47About the clinic or David
02:48It's just too risky
02:53Chris and Rachel
02:54Oh, apparently they had a thing like 100 years back
02:56I had it
02:58Right?
02:59This place, eh?
03:01Imagine mapping out everyone who's ever rooted each other
03:03I reckon I'll look like that meme from
03:05It's Always Sunny It's Up
03:07Hey, speaking of
03:08My dumb move with Ash the other night
03:10I just, I don't want you to think it meant anything
03:12Because, you know, I know you can't have a thing for it
03:14Oh, no, no
03:14I'm so over him
03:16Really?
03:17Yeah
03:17It's ancient history
03:18Thank God
03:19I felt awful
03:20Besides, I reckon I could do better than your mum's sloppy seconds
03:23All floppy thirds
03:25Yeah, I reckon too
03:26Do you have your eye on anyone else?
03:29Nah
03:29All the guys here are
03:31Oh, I have had to consciously uncouple from like three guys
03:34Three?
03:35Yeah
03:35I mean men
03:36They're nothing but trouble, heartache and past rash
03:40Facts
03:41It's like what Nas did to you
03:43Honestly
03:44Oh, let me root you and then I'll make you catch feelings
03:47And oh, no, nick my neck
03:48Wow
03:49I've still got it bad for my ex
03:50Yeah, my pregnant ex
03:51Yeah, which I've known about this whole time, by the way
03:54Oh, so's me
03:54Come on, tell me that wasn't how it all went
03:56Nah, it was
03:58It just sounds pretty rough when you lay it out like that
04:00And he had the audacity to go and get jealous
04:02He did not
04:03Stink, eh?
04:05Maybe we should all just be lesbians
04:07Hard
04:07And we've all tried it, right?
04:10Oh, no, I haven't tried it
04:12Oh, sis
04:13You should give it a go one day
04:15You know
04:15No past rash
04:18I used to think that Jesse from Toy Story was super hot
04:20Oh, yeah, the boots, the braid
04:22The chaps, cuz
04:28Hey
04:29What?
04:30Look, I know you're true in theatre
04:31Can you not?
04:32What?
04:33Whatever this is
04:34I'm just trying
04:35Not interested
04:37We have to work together
04:38And live together
04:39So we should
04:40No
04:42You told me to stop caring about what people think
04:44So why do you care about this?
04:46Hey
04:50Oh, what have you done now?
04:52Tried, okay?
04:56So we're holding off only large-scale orders for now
04:59So make sure that the budget's saved to the F-drive
05:01Did you get all that?
05:02Rachel
05:05Have you ever slept with a woman?
05:07Excuse me?
05:09Well, like, I know you're with Chris, but, like, have you?
05:11I'm not with Chris
05:12Oh, yeah, right, okay
05:13But seriously, have you?
05:15How is this any of your business?
05:17Oh, so you have?
05:19Wow, do you recommend?
05:20I'm going to regret asking this, but what are you on about?
05:26If men are the problem, which I think we can all agree that they are, then women must be the
05:31solution
05:32Why?
05:33I mean, A, they smell nice, B, they don't pee on the toilet seat, and C, they have sheets on
05:40the bed
05:40Have you ever actually been attracted to a woman?
05:43I just think it'd be easier, right?
05:46Rachel, my word
05:46Oh, sorry, excuse me
05:48We're actually just having a very important conversation
05:52I'm coming out to Rachel
05:54And now you too, I guess
05:56I
05:57Am a lesbian
06:00Right
06:02Well, um
06:04Congratulations
06:05Thank you
06:07Um, look, I hate to interrupt this momentous day, but there's a nurse in the clinic waiting to be inducted
06:12If you could, um
06:13Get Selena
06:14No, she no longer works there
06:15What? Why?
06:17If you could get the nurse signed in, please
06:19Of course, and, um, thank you for your support and solidarity
06:26Selina's rostered back on with Maeve
06:27But
06:28Why does this whole building think you and Chris are dating?
06:32Because your PA is a foghorn in heels
06:34You've been together this whole time, haven't you?
06:36Apparently I can't even talk to Chris without somebody thinking we're dating
06:39You're doing more than talking
06:41David
06:41No, don't
06:42I thought you trusted me
06:43Of course I do
06:44Then why not tell me the truth?
06:46I am
06:52Yeah, just start with two milligrams of morphine, but keep an eye on her blood pressure
06:57I'm coming
06:58Reckon you from the guttum?
07:00Like he gets to win
07:02Someone called for a consult, so
07:04Yeah, me
07:05Audacity
07:09Odette, 19
07:10Tried climbing up the side of a bouncy castle
07:12Fell roughly two metres
07:13No LOC, but she's experiencing occipital pain
07:15And she has a suspected right wrist fracture
07:17Fast mover, why is she?
07:19Excuse me?
07:20Making ill-advised decisions?
07:21Maybe she was just exercising her free will and autonomy
07:25Continue
07:25I've ordered a CT head and neck and a wrist x-ray
07:28But no doubt you've got something to say about that too
07:30She'd like more pain relief
07:32So would I
07:36I'll deal with it myself
07:37Are you sure?
07:39Very
07:39Thank you
07:40I'll start my reviews then
07:42Great
07:43Has the roster changed?
07:45I'll be dealing with Mr. Seymour now
07:46Why?
07:47Because he's a tricky customer and I'm happy to take him off her hands
07:50You don't need to go easy on her
07:51In case you hadn't noticed, Izzy was very upset yesterday
07:54And today she's straight back to her usual hard-out style
07:56It's called kindness
07:57Phil
07:58We all know Mr. Seymour's a nightmare
08:00And if you were having a rough day, I'd gladly take him off your hands
08:03If you don't mind
08:05Phil
08:07How did you know you were bi?
08:09What?
08:10Okay, so there's like L and G and B and T and Q plus all the pluses
08:15But how did you know which one you were?
08:17The who?
08:18Well, so like I thought maybe I'm an L
08:20And then I thought, oh, maybe I'm a B
08:22And then, well, there's all the Qs
08:24What's the difference?
08:25Did I say...
08:26Did I miss one?
08:32Selina
08:33Oh, can't stop
08:34I'm sorry you had to find out like that
08:36Save it
08:37I know it must be hard
08:38You know what's hard is having to revisit this conversation every second minute
08:42But hey, congrats, you got what you wanted
08:44I just wish everyone would shut up about it
08:46So that I could just focus on getting what I want
08:48So you're still going through with treatment at the clinic?
08:51If I can afford it
08:53But apparently I don't meet the criteria of Kearney's special funded program
08:57So maybe you should try a different clinic?
09:00Excuse me?
09:01Well, you know, mixing work and personal stuff is messy
09:06Says the man who is dating the CEO
09:10All I'm saying is, be careful
09:12You're unbelievable
09:14But hey, just as long as Chris Warner gets his happy ending
09:17Who cares if anyone else does, right?
09:22So do you just slide the needle in?
09:26I do
09:27I bet you can really, um, work miracles with those fingers
09:34And the reason you're in an ED room, Libby, do you require medical attention?
09:40Yes, I require medical attention
09:42Yeah, I got this
09:44Uh, Crane, Q3 could really use your eyes
09:56Uh, Libby
09:56Were you, were you hitting on her?
09:59No
09:59Because you could probably work on your technique
10:03I'm trying
10:04It's just that being gay is really hard
10:07Oh, it looks easy, does it?
10:08No, that's not what I mean
10:09It's just
10:13It looks easy with you
10:14No chance, Libby
10:15Okay, it's worth a shot
10:19Thank you for ordering the CT or detritus will need surgical fixation
10:23I will go and sort the paperwork
10:25I don't want it to be like this
10:30I'm sorry about that
10:32Which bit?
10:33Today
10:34Yesterday
10:36Maybe Dolly can lend me a month
10:38Look, I meant it
10:39Without autonomy
10:42I had no right to be
10:43Jealous
10:44Room 4 status
10:45Nearly clear
10:48I hope we can work well together
10:50Now
10:50Same
10:51Why is no one moving?
10:59I mean, it's not like she even met the baby
11:02Not that it was an actual baby
11:03Zygo at best
11:04But oh no
11:05We all have to
11:05Okay, whoa
11:06Just stop
11:07I lost one too, okay
11:09But do you see Nas taking crusty old patients off me?
11:11Phil
11:12People go through crap every day
11:13But they're not milking it like a portable breast pump
11:15I don't know if we need to bring breast pumps into this
11:18But everyone's like
11:18Oh, poor Izzy
11:20I mean, sure, it sucked
11:21But I'm meant to suddenly like her now
11:23No one is asking you to
11:24If this is her trauma Olympics
11:26Then come on
11:27Harper died
11:27Here we go
11:28As always
11:29I'm the wicked witch of the west
11:31Do not bring Alphaba into this, okay
11:32You do not have the vocal range
11:33When she's one
11:34Trying to
11:34The only person who keeps bringing up Harper is you
11:37Not true
11:38Izzy didn't know her
11:39Nas barely knew her
11:41And literally nobody cares anymore
11:43Just then, Livy mentioned
11:44You want to know why people don't like you, Phil?
11:46It's because you react like this
11:48For calling bull when I see it
11:49No, it's not Harper
11:50It's not Izzy
11:51It is you, Phil
11:52Every time
11:54I'm sorry
11:55I broke your trust
11:56Are you?
11:57Yes, I shouldn't have gone there
11:59When you swore that you wouldn't
12:00She just gets me so riled up
12:02I love you, Phil
12:03But you need a serious vibe check
12:05Start owning your shit
12:06You're gonna have no one left
12:11Got rid of Selina
12:13Hello, Chris
12:14So you've taken her off the funded IVF program
12:17Are you her donor?
12:19What?
12:19Are you her family?
12:21No
12:21Then what makes you think
12:22I'm at liberty to say
12:24Does Rachel care
12:25How much time you're spending
12:26On your ex?
12:27Of course not
12:28I need to know that Selina
12:30Will be taken care of
12:34You think I wouldn't?
12:35She's been through a lot
12:37Surviving a relationship with you?
12:39With her family
12:40Her cancer
12:41Cancer?
12:42Who was it?
12:43Two years ago
12:44What sort of cancer?
12:46What makes you think
12:47I think I'm at liberty to say
12:49Well, I won't take up any more of your time
12:52Say hi to Rachel for me
13:03So is there like a resource list anywhere?
13:07Yeah, on C Drive
13:08No, I mean for aspiring lesbians
13:10Like, what are my next steps?
13:12Um, what steps have you taken?
13:16Heading on me doesn't count
13:17Okay, so I am working on my flirting
13:20Also, I've updated my email signature
13:22To Libby Jeffries
13:24Out loud and proud
13:25With a little rainbow emoji
13:27Cool
13:27I'm not sure you need to put it in your email
13:29So it's just no one has really caught my eye
13:31Do you think I'm gay, bi, or pan?
13:36I think it is totally up to you
13:39But I do think Zoe Kravitz is hot
13:42But she lives in LA
13:45Well, why don't you just get out there
13:47And give it a shot, you know?
13:49Try before you buy
13:50Bye, good one
13:53Oh, you mean actually?
13:55Well, don't you want me to find out?
13:57I thought we agreed
13:58You weren't going to say anything to her
14:00I know
14:01I wasn't going to
14:02And did you mention David?
14:04No
14:05But I did see him after I saw her
14:07And?
14:08He knows about us
14:10Chris, how?
14:11I didn't tell him
14:12He is definitely going to know
14:14We're working together too
14:15Well, not necessarily
14:16We could tell
14:17No, we are not going to do anything
14:19I will sort this
14:20And you will do absolutely nothing
14:22We're
14:22No
14:23We can't afford any more
14:24Of your impulsive decisions
14:26Not if we're going to nail Kearney
14:31Hey, just before you go and do rounds
14:34Can I have a quick word?
14:36Sure
14:38I'm sorry
14:39Really
14:42Okay
14:44Look, you might not know this about me
14:45But sometimes I say things kind of badly
14:49I got that from the jump
14:51Right
14:52Well, friends aren't exactly my forte
14:55But I'm up for trying if you are
15:00Thank you
15:01That, Phil
15:03Okay, good
15:04He survived
15:04That is never going to happen
15:07What?
15:08One half-baked apology in front of the boss
15:10And what?
15:11We're braiding each other's hair
15:12No
15:12Stop groveling, Phil
15:14It's even more pathetic than you are
15:21I'm not sure about maternity leave just yet
15:24But I can ask HR
15:27Right, um
15:29I'm going to think about it
15:30Thanks
15:32Man, I've got a damn job
15:33I can pay them back
15:34What's this?
15:35Bank loan for IVF
15:37I thought the clinic might cover it
15:38Yeah, well, David said I didn't meet the criteria
15:41Before he kicked me out of my job there
15:43Why? What'd you do?
15:44And there it is
15:46Your lifelong question
15:47What'd you do wrong now, Linga?
15:50Yeah, I just mean
15:50I'm too back
15:52Linga, wait, wait
15:55I heard about Chris and Rachel
15:57You and everyone else
15:59I know I must suck, but
16:00You've got to get over them
16:01Yeah
16:02It does suck
16:03It sucks that I have to work with my ex in his new fling
16:06It sucks that everyone is talking about it
16:08It sucks that I got booted out of a job that I love for no good reason
16:11And it sucks that I have to pay for IVF
16:14And I can't even afford it
16:16Sorry, just Steve
16:18And what really sucks is
16:19My own brother doesn't even seem to give a shit
16:27Oi, he actually apologised
16:29Oh, finally
16:30So you can stop busting his balls
16:32Even if I do enjoy it
16:34But the bro fully deserves every single...
16:37To be fair
16:37It's not like I didn't know about the carnage I was getting myself into
16:40Yeah, but he still shouldn't have, you know, reeled you in if he wasn't 100% keen
16:45Like you and Ash?
16:47Yeah
16:48You know what?
16:49Maybe Nas and Ash should just hook up
16:50Perfect match
16:53Do you still like Nas?
16:55No
16:56Look me in the eye and say that
16:58Okay, fine
16:59There's like a...
16:59I don't know
17:00Residual kind of smear
17:02No
17:04Your secret's safe with me, eh?
17:07What about Ash?
17:09Look me in the eye
17:13Oh
17:14Oh, crap
17:15I'm sorry
17:16Nah
17:17Nah, don't be
17:21To moving on
17:23That's a wheeze cup
17:27To moving on
17:30Your secret's safe with me, too
17:38So you don't feel bad
17:39Like, at all
17:40Of course I feel bad
17:43It's like
17:45My brain cares, but my mouth doesn't
17:47Mm-hmm
17:48That tracks
17:48I obviously feel bad about messing up with you
17:51And is he?
17:54Actually
17:55No
17:57I'm just pretending to
17:58Not even like a smidgen of guilt
18:02No
18:04Wow
18:05That actually feels
18:06Very freeing
18:08To admit that
18:13You don't get to chuck people around like that
18:15It's not ethical
18:16It's not fair
18:17And I have legal rights
18:18Selina
18:18I deserve a watertight explanation
18:20As to why you're denying me the IVF
18:22If you...
18:22No, I'm not finished yet
18:23Do you hear that raging ticking sound?
18:25That's my biological clock
18:27Counting down
18:27To rock bottom
18:28So if you think I'm gonna let this die
18:30Without putting up a fight
18:31Think again
18:31You're absolutely right
18:33What?
18:35I was rash yesterday
18:36I see that
18:36I'm sorry
18:38So...
18:38So you're exactly the sort of person
18:40That would benefit from this program
18:41You meet a lot of the criteria
18:43But you said I didn't
18:44In review
18:45You're over the threshold
18:46And you're in
18:47The fully funded program
18:49The fully funded program
18:49All expenses paid
18:50What about the job?
18:51Do you think
18:52Do you think Maeve will live
18:53If we put you back?
18:55Are you genuinely serious?
18:57Because I cannot handle
18:58Genuinely serious
18:59Oh my god
19:01Yes
19:02Thank you
19:04When do we start?
19:08Hi
19:10Trigger warning
19:11Compassion bypass
19:13Did you sort whatever that was with Izzy?
19:15Sure did
19:16Can't sort her
19:17What?
19:17Don't ask
19:18Yeah
19:18I'm not gonna waste any more breath
19:20On that pissy little groom one
19:26Poppy's here
19:27So is Libby
19:29Yeah I called it off
19:30We're all good
19:31Why did she take it?
19:33Yeah
19:34There he is
19:35The man who turned me gay
19:39Oh I meant to ask
19:40Am I a top or a bottom?
19:43Power bottom
19:45How do you turn something?
19:46Just move on
19:46Move on
19:47Look Libby
19:48Maeve's right
19:50Why don't you just
19:51Kiss Phil
19:52What?
19:53Yeah see if you feel anything
19:54Why me?
19:55Don't panic if her lips are cold
19:57And solid
19:58She is made out of ice
19:59Hey
19:59Gotta find out somehow
20:01Ah
20:03I'm not
20:04Well I'm glad you seem to have escaped unscathed
20:07Probably should have listened to you in the first place though
20:10Cuts both ways
20:11Two beers please
20:12Thanks
20:13Alright
20:14Go on then
20:16Okay
20:17I don't bite
20:18She does
20:20Ready?
20:22Okay okay okay
20:23Just kiss me
20:30They're actually doing it
20:33So thoughts
20:34Um that was um
20:37Absolutely
20:38Not for me
20:40Philip has an acquired taste
20:42I'm a good kisser
20:43Damn
20:44I really thought that being gay would be the answer
20:46It might help if you kissed someone you were actually into
20:48That was um
20:50All the clarification I needed
20:53I'm a good kisser
20:54I'm a good kisser
20:54Hey Jack
20:55Well now you know
20:56Thank you Phil
20:57That was a very
20:59Informative session
21:03Good to see she's moving on
21:09Are you serious Rachel?
21:11I'm not accusing you of anything
21:13Really?
21:14Because it certainly feels like you are
21:15I'm giving you a chance to explain
21:17You've got to understand
21:19It doesn't look great
21:20Trying to get rid of Chris
21:22Locking me out of the finances
21:23And you didn't tell me that you were practically bankrupt
21:26Oh come on Rachel
21:27Listen to yourself
21:28Do you really think this warrants what?
21:30A criminal conviction?
21:31Obviously not
21:32I just want an explanation
21:34Chris is a liability
21:36The finances were a mistake that I remedied
21:38As soon as you flagged them
21:39And as for my ex-wife taking me to the cleaners
21:42Do you really think I want to broadcast
21:43My failed marriage to the world?
21:45This is a fertility clinic for Christ's sake
21:47These are vulnerable people
21:49Exactly
21:49That's why I care
21:51Fine
21:56There
21:56I just shared the books with you
21:58You can scrape through them with a knit comb
22:00For all I care
22:00You won't find anything
22:01Thank you
22:02You know me Rachel
22:04You've known me for a long long time
22:07Do you really think I'm capable of exploiting people like that?
22:12What would your father say?
22:15I'm sorry
22:16I shouldn't have doubted you
22:18Thank you
22:29Carter, sorry to keep you waiting
22:30You've got to get rid of her
22:31Selina is a valid candidate
22:33I can't kick her off
22:34I don't think you have a choice here
22:36What are you doing?
22:38Hello?
22:40She is a liability, David
22:42I want her out
22:44But
22:45I don't care
22:46I'm not having Chris Warner's ex as part of our trial
22:50Every day that Warner is under that roof
22:53He risks coming across the lynch name
22:55And that is not going to happen
23:00Oh, fuck
