00:00What should we do to you?
00:01What?
00:01Make him sit up and take notice.
00:04And how exactly do I do that?
00:06As soon as you feel him slipping away,
00:08you've got to do whatever it takes to remind him how special he is to you.
00:12Before it's too late.
00:14Sally and Flynn are going to be out.
00:17We'll have a place all to ourselves.
00:19What, me? Me and you?
00:21Exactly.
00:23Troy!
00:24Your boyfriend, eh? We don't know about him.
00:27No, no, just a colleague from work.
00:56I'm really well, Jess. How are you?
00:58Yeah, not too bad.
01:00Wow, you look incredible.
01:02Well, thank you. You too.
01:04Even with a bald head.
01:06Yeah, you like?
01:07Yeah, it's different.
01:09Well, what are you up to?
01:11Oh, not a lot. Just walking, reminiscing.
01:15Right, well, I'm just heading up to the club for a juice.
01:17Want to join me?
01:22I would not have recognised the place.
01:23It looks fantastic.
01:24Yeah, it took a fair bit of hard work, but we're all pretty happy with it.
01:28Do you miss it?
01:30Yeah, I do.
01:31But it's all good. I'm moving on soon, anyway, so...
01:34Irene mentioned any idea where you're here?
01:36Well, I'm just going to play it by you. I think, see how I feel at the time.
01:39I think what's important is that I get a fresh start, you know?
01:42Just leave all the baggage behind.
01:44Do you think you can really do that?
01:46You know, move on? Ignore the past?
01:49If that's what you really want, yeah, I do.
01:56Well, the lemon zinger looks good.
01:59Are you OK, Chloe?
02:01Yeah, of course. Why wouldn't I be?
02:02I don't know. You just see I'm not really there.
02:06Well, I'm fine, honestly.
02:09Order from up here?
02:10Yeah.
02:29Today's seriously the day.
02:31This morning.
02:33Awesome, man.
02:36It's your problem.
02:37Don't tell me you don't want to do this.
02:39No, it's not that.
02:40Then.
02:42Look, Cass is the one you're into, right?
02:44Yeah.
02:45So what's the problem?
02:47Look, it's just, Cass is suggesting he's coming out of the blue, you know?
02:50It's not exactly the way I thought it would all happen.
02:52Who cares?
02:54Look, if you like her, then you should go for it.
02:57Well, trust me, Pat, you'd be crazy not to.
03:00OK, first thing we've got to do, get those invites sorted out.
03:03Yeah, it seems to be better.
03:04I'm off to work. I'll see you later.
03:06See ya.
03:08Do you really reckon that we'll be able to keep this from you for the next two weeks?
03:11We'll have to.
03:12It's all the more reason to get things sorted out sooner rather than later.
03:15Well, we still don't really know who we're going to invite.
03:18Not apart from family, no.
03:20I've got no idea, not about any of his old friends or anything.
03:23Hmm.
03:26I think we didn't want to tell anyone.
03:28Well, we don't really have a choice, do we?
03:29Not if we want anyone that wants to actually be at this party.
03:34Come on.
03:36Aunty Morag, can we please get you to help us with something?
04:06Are you sure Selen Finner out?
04:08All morning.
04:10The place is ours.
04:14I'm getting by.
04:18Come on.
04:20Please.
04:25Fly, fly.
04:27Let me get by.
04:28Move on.
04:30So, I spoke to Selen the other day.
04:32How is she?
04:33Yeah, she's really good.
04:34Her and Stephen have been seeing each other again.
04:36Oh, so they're working things out.
04:37It looks that way, yeah.
04:39That's cool.
04:40You know, I always thought you two would end up together.
04:43Yeah, I actually don't think it ever would have worked out.
04:46I've stuffed up way too many times for that.
04:49Tell me about it.
04:51I never actually thought she was going to forgive us for, um...
04:55We did kiss each other behind her back.
04:57She should still hate the both of us.
04:58Yes.
05:00Anyway.
05:01Oh.
05:02Oh, my God.
05:03What are you doing?
05:04Are we?
05:06Well, as you can see, I'm still as big a class as ever.
05:08Oh, so you are willing to accept responsibility for this
05:11with the famous lasagna disaster of 1997.
05:14You'll go to your grape tonight, girl.
05:16I can't believe you remember that.
05:18Yes.
05:18You know, I shouldn't have bothered.
05:20I should have just let you guys stop.
05:23Hey, Chloe, what's that?
05:25Oh, um, nothing.
05:27I just tripped down the stairs the other day.
05:29I should probably get this cleaned up somewhere.
05:32But, Chloe, if you don't...
05:33Where are the bathrooms around here?
05:34This whole place has changed.
05:35Are they still through here?
06:05What is that?
06:09Tell me.
06:12I want this.
06:13I promise.
06:14I want to show you how I feel about you.
06:19Yes.
06:21I'm sorry.
06:22I can't.
06:37Oh, that's a lot better.
06:38Sorry about that.
06:39Did you get any juice on you?
06:40No.
06:41No.
06:41Good.
06:41You know, I can't believe how clumsy I am.
06:43Olivia's always teasing me about it.
06:45She seriously thinks it's a problem.
06:46This one time, I was walking out of school.
06:48Did you just realize...
06:49Just as we were crossing the road, I tripped and fell flat on my face.
06:52I ended up with scratches all over me.
06:54It was so embarrassing.
06:55Poor Olivia just wanted to crawl underneath a rock and die for having such a dork as a mother.
06:59I mean, all my little friends saw it.
07:01Did you just stop?
07:02What?
07:04What's going on?
07:05There's nothing going on.
07:08Come on, Chloe.
07:09This is me you're talking to.
07:10There is no way you got the bruise from falling down the stairs.
07:14I've just been telling you what a klutz I still am.
07:16Except you never were a klutz.
07:17The exact opposite, in fact.
07:21Can you just leave it, Jesse?
07:22Not until you tell me what's going on.
07:24There is nothing going on.
07:27Chloe, I want to know.
07:29Please, Jesse, just drop it.
07:30I want to help you.
07:31Just leave me alone then, okay?
07:36I'm sorry.
07:57I didn't mean to upset you.
08:01I know.
08:04I'm sorry for snapping.
08:07I'm sorry.
08:12No, if you need to talk, I'm here, okay?
08:18I've been seeing someone.
08:25His name's Troy.
08:28He was one of the lawyers at the firm where I work.
08:31We met the day I started there, and the attraction was instant.
08:37He was the perfect guy.
08:40He was the happiest I've been since...
08:44since lucky.
08:47But as time went on, Troy began to change.
08:52He became possessive of me.
08:54He wanted to know where I was every second of the day.
08:58And then one night,
09:00I was talking to a friend I used to work with.
09:04A male friend.
09:07And Troy became convinced that I was having an affair.
09:12I told him I wasn't, and we got into this huge fight.
09:18And he hit me.
09:20Straight across the place.
09:29So I broke up with him.
09:31I kicked him out of the house.
09:33I wasn't going to go through that again.
09:36Especially with Olivia.
09:42And then a few days later, he called,
09:45begging my forgiveness,
09:47and promised it would never happen again.
09:51Like the pathetic cliche,
09:53I believed him.
09:57Things were better for a while.
10:00Just like he said.
10:06Until one night, he...
10:08he lost it completely.
10:17I spent a week in hospital.
10:24And Troy was charged,
10:25and I took out an AVO,
10:28but...
10:29he follows me.
10:31He...
10:31he watches me.
10:33He calls me all the time.
10:34I thought the cops do something.
10:35They can't track him down.
10:37Why not?
10:37He's got no fixed address.
10:39He quit his job.
10:39They reckon they can't find him.
10:42Meanwhile, you live in fear.
10:45Well, that's why I came back to the bay.
10:49To get away from him.
10:50I knew I'd be safe here,
10:51but...
10:52I can't stay here forever.
10:53Where is this going now?
10:56Sorry?
10:57If the cops can't do something,
10:58I will.
11:01Jess, no.
11:02You can't let him get away with this.
11:03Please, Jesse.
11:04You just tell me where he is,
11:06and I'll sort it out.
11:07No, Jesse.
11:08It will just make him angry, please.
11:10I don't want you involved.
11:14Does Irene know?
11:15No, no.
11:16And that's how I want it to stay.
11:19Please don't say anything to anyone, Jesse.
11:29She tells me sweet and nothing's on
11:32The love of me hurts
11:38Hey.
11:40The table's yours.
11:41We need to talk about what's happening between us.
11:44Rick.
11:45You can't keep avoiding it.
11:47Lady, I'm not taking no for an answer.
11:52Hey, Cass.
11:54Want to help us out with granddad's potty?
11:58Hey, guys.
11:59What the hell?
12:00What happened?
12:01Are you okay?
12:02I thought I was doing the right thing.
12:05I mean, I really wanted to show him
12:06how I felt about him.
12:07You mean Rick?
12:09I wanted to show him
12:11that he should be with me,
12:12not her.
12:13Who's her?
12:13Matilda.
12:14Rick's with Matilda.
12:15No, but he likes her again.
12:17No way.
12:18Trust me, he's been so strange lately,
12:20and every time that she's around,
12:21he takes...
12:21Hey, Rick likes you.
12:23I know he does.
12:24He's probably trying to find you right out
12:25and tell you how stupid you're being.
12:29I'm so sorry about it.
12:41The first thing you need to do is talk to Rick.
12:43Confront him straight up
12:44about what he may or may not be feeling for Matilda.
12:48I'm not sure if I want to know the answer.
12:50You might not want to know,
12:52but you've got to find out whether he does or not.
12:55And hey, I know one thing's for sure.
12:57Sleeping with Rick,
12:59it's not going to fix things.
13:01Even if he doesn't like Matilda,
13:02which, for the record,
13:03I totally don't think he does.
13:05But your first time should be
13:07because you're both ready.
13:08Because it's a special moment
13:09between the two of you.
13:11Not because you're trying to stop him
13:12from slipping away or something.
13:15Hey, don't feel bad.
13:16But I'm only saying this
13:18because I've been there before.
13:20My first time was a disaster.
13:23It was with this guy
13:23that I barely knew after a school dance.
13:26And I've regretted it ever since, really.
13:30Sex can be and should be a beautiful thing
13:32with the right person
13:34or the right reasons.
13:35Because, you know, you're in love.
13:37Not because you're trying to prove something.
13:43Thanks.
13:44Hey, talk to Rick.
13:46Honestly, you've got nothing to worry about.
13:52I really don't know
13:53why we're having this conversation.
13:55What happened at the hospital last week?
13:57That didn't freak you out at all?
13:59It was nothing, Rick.
14:00Our lips brushed.
14:00That's it.
14:01That's it.
14:02You're with Cassie.
14:03I know that.
14:03Then what's this about?
14:04It's about you and me
14:05sorting out where we stand with each other.
14:07We're friends.
14:08Nothing more.
14:09That's really all there is to it for you?
14:11Yes, and I know that's all there is
14:12to it for you, too.
14:13You're just feeling confused at the moment
14:15because you're protective of me
14:16and you want to keep me safe.
14:18Exactly.
14:18Doesn't that say something?
14:19Yes, it says you want to protect me
14:21and you want to keep me safe.
14:22Maddie, I'm...
14:22Stop reading more into it than there is.
14:24What?
14:25You really think it's that simple?
14:26You really think that's the only reason I'm confused?
14:28Yes, I really do.
14:30Because I was just as confused
14:31after it first happened.
14:33You're the one who has been looking out for me.
14:36You're the one that I felt safest to call
14:37after I escaped last week.
14:38I thought that there might have been more to it as well.
14:40Then I realised there is, but not in that way.
14:44There'll always be a special bond between us.
14:46We just get each other too much for there not to be.
14:49But it's a bond as friends, best friends.
14:52In another time, in another place, who knows,
14:55there could have been something between us.
14:57But we're not in another time.
14:59We're not in another place.
15:00We're here and now.
15:01And in the here and now,
15:02you're in a relationship with Cassie.
15:04And that's the right thing.
15:05The story ends there as far as I'm concerned.
15:10How do you do that?
15:12Do what?
15:13Like everything makes sense.
15:15So it does make sense to you now,
15:17your confusion?
15:18Yeah, it does.
15:20And, you know, I agree,
15:21we do have this special bond thing.
15:23It's like, I don't know,
15:25you're like a sister to me.
15:27Which I guess is why I get so worked up
15:29about trying to protect you.
15:30And I can't think of anyone
15:31I'd rather have doing the job.
15:33Now go and find your girlfriend.
15:43Thank you, Jess.
15:45What, Paul?
15:46I haven't done anything.
15:46Oh, yes, you have.
15:48You were there for me.
15:51I haven't told that stuff to anyone
15:52and you made me feel...
15:54I don't know, you made me feel comfortable.
15:56So thank you.
15:56You're welcome.
15:58So what happens now?
15:59It doesn't make you hide from Troy forever.
16:02To be honest,
16:04I don't know.
16:06Is that him?
16:11Listen here,
16:12you better leave Chloe to hell alone
16:14or I'll track you down and finish you.
16:16And that's a promise.
16:21Might not do any good,
16:22but I tried.
16:30At least you know you're safe in the bay.
16:31He can't find you here.
16:34No, I should go.
16:36Thanks again for the four.
16:37I really do appreciate it.
16:39Don't mention it.
16:40Go.
16:40Now if there's anything you need,
16:42just let me know.
16:43All right?
16:44I will.
17:03Hey, all that stuff you said to Cassie before,
17:05you seem to really know what you were talking about.
17:07Like I said,
17:08been there, done that.
17:09I don't want her to make the same mistakes I did.
17:11Yeah,
17:12and also all that stuff you said
17:13about waiting until the time's right,
17:15like until you're ready.
17:16How do you know when that is?
17:18Oh, there's no hard or fast rule.
17:20It's just a feeling.
17:21You know,
17:22a feeling that you love someone so much,
17:23you want to experience everything with them.
17:26Why are you so interested, hey?
17:29No reason.
17:30Hello, people.
17:31Yes,
17:31the superstar graphic party designer invitation extraordinaire
17:34has entered the building.
17:36Sorry.
17:37The invitations are done.
17:38I'll show you.
17:39You approve?
17:39Oh, wow.
17:40Oh, wow.
17:41Fingers.
17:41Sorry.
17:43Jeez, Louise.
17:45Hello.
17:46Hello.
17:46Um,
17:46we're just going down to the beach.
17:47Do you want to join us?
17:48Oh, thanks.
17:49I just came from there.
17:49I'm going to call Olivia.
17:51Have fun.
17:51See ya.
17:52See ya.
18:03Hi, Olivia.
18:04It's Mum.
18:06You know, I'm good, sweetie.
18:06How are you?
18:09Oh, it's good to hear your voice as well.
18:12Yeah, no, no.
18:14Why?
18:14What have you been doing?
18:17Wow, it sounds like a lot of fun.
18:27Hey.
18:30Listen, about before...
18:32Have you been with Matilda?
18:34Yeah, that's right.
18:35I'm not stupid.
18:36I know what's been going on with you.
18:37Cass, what...
18:38Weren't you with her?
18:42I was, yeah.
18:43But, wait, it's not what you think it is.
18:44If you want to be with her, then just tell me.
18:46No, I don't want to be with her.
18:47I want to be with you, I promise.
18:49Matty and I, we're just mates.
18:50Yeah, we needed to talk a few things through.
18:52But, Cass, wait, you've got to believe me.
18:54There is nothing going on.
18:55We're running out like that before.
18:57I don't want you to think that...
18:57You really mean there's nothing going on with you and Matty?
18:59Yeah, I promise.
19:02Cass, you're the only one I want to be with.
19:05No one else comes close.
19:09Talk's cheap, Rick.
19:11Action's what counts in the last few weeks.
19:20Irene is going to be so excited that you're going to come and stay for a while.
19:25Yeah, I will.
19:27Oh, and I'll sort your bus ticket out first thing in the morning, okay?
19:29I promise I'll get Georgie to bring you down.
19:33All right.
19:34I know this is sweet.
19:35I better go.
19:39I love you too, my angel.
19:40I miss you as well.
19:42Yeah.
19:43Okay, I'll see you soon.
19:45Bye.
19:54Tasha, are you home?
19:55Tasha, are you home?
20:19She thinks he has a crush on his...
20:22Oh, boy.
20:22Tasha, are you home?
20:22Tasha, are you home?
20:22Bye.
20:22Tasha, are you home?
20:22And let me just say,
20:22And let's see you soon.
