00:00The fact of the matter is, if there was no baby, you wouldn't want anything to do with me.
00:04Look, Amanda, I don't want to go through this every time I see you.
00:07Well, what do you want me to say?
00:09That I forgive you?
00:10You should go off with Hayley and live happily ever after?
00:15You won't get away with hurting me like this.
00:17Neither of you will.
00:30No matter where you are, you're my guiding star.
00:39Hold me in your arms, don't let me go.
00:44I want to stay forever, closer each day, home and away.
01:02Hey, look at you. Look with me a shame.
01:04You don't need me to do that.
01:06Look, Amanda, I just want to get things on some sort of level that we can work.
01:10I'd say that's a lost cause.
01:13Look, I'm willing to make a fresh start, but it's gonna have to be a two-way street, okay?
01:18The baby's healthy, by the way.
01:21Sorry?
01:22I went and had another ultrasound this morning.
01:23I saw its heartbeat and everything.
01:25It was really lovely.
01:27Why didn't you tell me about the appointment?
01:29It must have slipped my mind.
01:33I cannot believe you would do that just to get back at me.
01:36Look, you made it pretty clear that you didn't want me as part of your life.
01:39Yeah, and I also made it clear that I want to be involved with the baby.
01:42Well, you can't have it all, Scott.
01:44If you want out, then you're out.
01:45And that means you can't see Byron either.
01:47Well, I promised I'd take him to the park tomorrow.
01:49Well, you'll have to cancel.
01:51Well, great.
01:52Now you're using Ryan to get back at me.
01:53That's really nice.
01:54You'd know all about what constitutes low, I suppose.
01:58Please don't do this, Amanda.
02:00I'm not doing anything.
02:01You made the choice.
02:02Now you get to live with him.
02:09It's past that globe there, will you, Rob?
02:11Don't be silly, Dad.
02:12We would love it.
02:14Yeah.
02:15I'll see you then.
02:16Bye.
02:18That was your grandfather, and he's back from Vietnam, and he's on his way here for a visit.
02:22Now?
02:22He doesn't give much notice, does he?
02:24Well, I don't mind.
02:26It'd be good to catch up with him.
02:28Dad, Graham, he's helping to build a school over there.
02:31Oh, that sounds like a pretty good bloke.
02:32Yeah, right.
02:35Did I miss something there?
02:36Oh, well, we've had our ups and downs in the past.
02:40But I'll fill you in later.
02:41Okay.
02:42Can you give us a call when he gets you, Mum, and I'll come over and get all the presents
02:45he's got me.
02:45Yeah, right, Robbie.
02:47And thanks for all the help with the application, Grant.
02:49I'll see you later.
02:50Bye.
02:50Bye.
02:53Damn.
02:55Not working?
02:56No, I think it must be that fitting.
02:59You look depressed.
03:01I am depressed.
03:03Amanda went and had an ultrasound without me.
03:05She said if I don't want to be with her, then I can't be involved with the baby.
03:11What do I do?
03:11She can't cut me out of my own kid's life.
03:14That's not what she really wants.
03:16Sorry?
03:17Well, it's obvious.
03:18Amanda's hurting, and this is her way of punishing you.
03:21So have you got any bright ideas?
03:23Well, if she wants you to back off, then I suggest you back off.
03:26But I'm talking all together for a while, and you just watch how fast she changes her tune, eh?
03:32James!
03:32James!
03:33James!
03:33James!
03:33James!
03:34You need to pull your finger out, buddy.
03:40Come and see me if you need some extra help.
03:42Yep.
03:43Okay.
03:44Your school certificate exams start tomorrow, so tonight is your last chance to focus on the task ahead.
03:50Forget any romances that you might be having.
03:53Forget your computer games or TVs.
03:55Look, this is your first truly important hurdle in your academic lives, okay?
03:59It deserves your full commitment.
04:00Now, I know that you're all capable of doing well, so just get in there, work hard, and prove me
04:05right.
04:05Okay?
04:06Okay.
04:08What did you get?
04:15This application form is impossible to fill out.
04:18What's it for?
04:18The Nixon Ferris Award.
04:20Mm-hmm.
04:22I'm glad you asked.
04:23It's a $10,000 grant given to one deserving student every year.
04:26Well, how do you qualify?
04:28Well, good grades, glowing references from a sponsor teacher, going through an interview process, the ability to jump through burning
04:35rings.
04:37The only problem is someone tried to get straight busy, so I really have to ace out the requirements.
04:41Well, I'll help you if you like.
04:43Really?
04:43Yeah.
04:44I mean, it's the least I can do after everything that you've done for me.
04:47Oh, damn!
04:48Hey, don't stress.
04:49We can fix this.
04:51I'm such an idiot.
04:52There is no need to get upset over spilled paint.
04:58Oh.
04:59Hey, no, hey.
05:00It's okay.
05:02This isn't about the sun, is it?
05:05I was so horrible to Scott earlier.
05:08I just...
05:09I wanted to hurt him, you know?
05:13I don't know.
05:13I can't keep doing that.
05:15It just makes me feel worse.
05:17That's because you still love him.
05:19Here.
05:20Give us your hands.
05:21All right?
05:22You don't have to be mean to him.
05:24Scott's a really good guy.
05:26Even if he does do things that suck sometimes.
05:28I know.
05:29Here you go.
05:30I'll clean this up.
05:32Okay.
05:38Scott.
05:39I was just about to call you.
05:40I'm here to collect the rest of my stuff.
05:41No, no, I...
05:42So let's do this cut-off thing all the way, all right?
05:44You can keep the furniture we bought if you like, and I'll take my CD.
05:47Scott!
05:47That's for the personal stuff like the necklace.
05:49That's up to you.
05:50Sorry?
05:51If you don't want it, then I'll take it back.
05:52But you gave it to me.
05:54Well, now you want it back.
05:55No, but if you want a clean break like you said, then...
05:58Here.
05:59Give it to Hayley.
06:01I'm not giving it to Hayley.
06:02Oh, what is not good enough for her?
06:03Listen, you wanted me out of your life and I...
06:05No, hurting me wasn't enough, was it?
06:07Now you have to come and stomp on my heart again for good measure.
06:11Look, I am not stopping.
06:12Stay away from me.
06:22I probably should have warned you not to take my advice when it comes to women.
06:26Thanks for telling me now.
06:28Well, no matter what you do, you're obviously not going to win with Amanda at the moment.
06:32No kidding.
06:33Well, then stop trying.
06:35Yeah, and then she'll say that I abandoned her.
06:37Well, if you go over there again, she's going to say you're harassing her.
06:41Just leave it, Mum.
06:43Thanks.
06:47Poor guy.
06:48I wish I never opened my mouth.
06:52Voila! One lamp.
06:54Oh, very impressive. Thank you.
06:57My work here is done.
06:59Oh, mine's just begun. Dad loves his roast.
07:01Actually, you mentioned before about ups and downs.
07:03I mean, what did you mean?
07:05Oh, the sort of father-daughter stuff.
07:08We had a breakthrough last time he was here, thanks to Anzac Day.
07:12Well, Graham was in the war.
07:14He had some pretty major issues to resolve.
07:17I believe he's crippled.
07:20Sorry.
07:23Maybe I should get out of your way.
07:37Well, the real exam's probably going to be harder, but at least we know we can do it.
07:40Yeah, I'm feeling confident.
07:41What?
07:41Oh, you never told us what you got.
07:43How much did you fail by?
07:45Not much.
07:46And it doesn't matter.
07:47The next two weeks are what's important to do.
07:48I don't think I'm going to do any better.
07:50What went wrong?
07:51Maybe since Flynn got diagnosed.
07:53I don't know.
07:54My head doesn't work.
07:55Nothing goes in.
07:56When my dad died, it was like I was walking around in a daze for ages.
08:00It's shock or something.
08:02Look, don't be so hard on yourself, okay?
08:04It's not easy to concentrate at home.
08:06You can.
08:07Yeah, I know, but I guess I'm handling it differently.
08:09For me, study's like a good distraction.
08:12Well, either way, Flynn's going to be gutted if I fart.
08:15Well, you're not going to fail.
08:16We'll help you out.
08:16Yeah, we'll go over our nights together.
08:18See?
08:19It'll be okay.
08:20We'll get you through this.
08:30Cheers, you're a sight for sore eyes tonight.
08:32Why?
08:33The customer's giving you trouble.
08:34Well, only this one.
08:35Well, you'd better go then.
08:37I just might do that, you know.
08:38The flight's all okay, the glasses are all clean.
08:41So good luck with the drunk.
08:43See ya.
08:44I didn't think you were working tonight.
08:46Oh, change of shifts.
08:47All right.
08:49Tony, huh?
08:50Sorry.
08:51Just, there you go.
08:53Um, I just hope what happened before, you know, whatever it was, it doesn't make things
09:01weird between us.
09:03Oh, I can't remember.
09:05Why?
09:06What were you going to say?
09:08Well, I was actually hoping it might make things a little weirder.
09:12Uh, sorry, that was meant to be a bit of a play on words and it didn't really sound
09:16right when it came out.
09:17Um, what I meant was, I was just kind of wondering whether we might be able to kind
09:22of like, you know, um, maybe go on a casual date or something.
09:28Oh.
09:29No, it's okay.
09:30Look, sorry.
09:31I was just sorry.
09:32Um, I understand it's a little, certainly a little bit strange.
09:34Uh, Beth, just, just, please forget I mentioned it, okay?
09:38I'll see you later.
09:48I'll see you later.
09:55Bye.
09:55Bye.
09:55Bye.
09:56Bye.
09:58Bye.
10:00Bye.
10:01How was it?
10:01Good.
10:02It was great, actually.
10:03Perfect for me.
10:04This woman's brought her husband in today and he's complaining of back pain.
10:07Turns out it's an aortic aneurysm and he would have died if we hadn't caught it.
10:11So I get to save the guy's life.
10:13She feels like a hero.
10:14It's a good day.
10:15Great.
10:16Oh, I guess that means I've got to go.
10:19Now, Dan tells us that he gave you back your trial exam results today.
10:23Yeah.
10:24Nick, how did you go?
10:25I'm really good.
10:26I'm looking forward to your thing.
10:27Good for you.
10:28We were a bit worried that maybe the dramas at home would affect your studies.
10:32Look at the two of you.
10:33Wish you'd have known you wouldn't let us down.
10:35We're very proud of you.
10:36Thanks.
10:41Maybe it wasn't as bad as you think.
10:43Thanks for the vote of confidence, mate, but I think your old man made a complete idiot himself.
10:47I'm sure you didn't look like an idiot.
10:49I just stood there with my mouth open, looking like a stunt mullet.
10:52He took you by surprise, that's why.
10:54He probably just took her by surprise.
10:55And I could tell by the look on her face how welcome my offer was.
10:59So go over there and do it properly.
11:00I don't think she's going to want to see me.
11:01Of course he'll want to see you.
11:03He's probably freaking out that you don't like him.
11:05Well, he knows I like him.
11:07But going over there is a bit desperate.
11:09I wouldn't know what to say.
11:10I'd probably put my foot in it again.
11:12She's probably just as worried as you are.
11:13I mean, if it was me, Dad, you'd be saying,
11:15if you want it bad enough, you've got to put it out on the line.
11:17Just go for it.
11:18Mum, if you want to go out with him,
11:19you've just got to stop beating around the bush and tell him.
11:21Just go for it.
11:27The foreshadowing at the end of the first act.
11:29If you'd be married, my grave is to be my wedding bed.
11:32Is like to be my wedding bed, correct?
11:36Hey, I just ran into Jackalette.
11:37What are you doing?
11:38Hi.
11:41Oh, Rick.
11:42I know it, Cass.
11:43I just can't remember it.
11:44Please don't take that in with you.
11:46Well, what if I forget everything?
11:47It's better to fail than get caught cheating.
11:49Is it?
11:50Look, you don't want to fail because you don't want to let Flynn and Sally down, right?
11:54What?
11:54So how do you think they'll feel if you get sprung cheating?
11:57It's a million times worse, trust me.
11:59Well, it's not as if I'm stealing from someone else's work.
12:01Still, you can't do this.
12:03Okay, if you can all come in quickly and quietly, please.
12:19What are you...
12:20Who let you in?
12:22Well, you shouldn't leave the door unlocked if you don't want visitors.
12:24You have no right to be in here and invited.
12:27Get out.
12:27Settle down.
12:28I'm not here to hassle you.
12:29I'm here to make you an offer.
12:31I don't want to hear it.
12:32Well, you will once I've told you what an amazing opportunity this is.
12:35I'm not interested in your games, Josh.
12:37Do you think I even trust you for a second?
12:39Oh, now that's unfair.
12:41And in this case, completely off the mark.
12:44What if I told you I could erase your debt completely and make you a very rich woman?
12:50I'd say forget it.
12:52I'm not falling for another one of your scams.
12:54Why?
12:55Because it's below you to steep so low?
12:56Get out before I call the cops.
12:58Silly, silly girl.
13:00You will hear me out.
13:02I'll make sure of that.
13:04Oh, I'm giving you a chance here.
13:07Don't say I didn't warn you.
13:12When I tell you to turn over the paper, I want you to write your student number at the top
13:15right-hand corner of the cover.
13:18You've got like two hours to complete the exam.
13:19There will be no talking and no conferring of any kind.
13:22We're a bit worried that maybe the dramas at home would be affecting your studies.
13:25Well, look at the two of you.
13:26We should have known you'd never let us down.
13:28Okay, you may turn over your paper.
13:30Your time starts now.
13:37This is your first truly important hurdle in your academic lives, okay?
13:41It deserves your full commitment.
13:45I'm very proud of you.
13:59Hello.
14:01Scott Hunter, please.
14:02Speaking.
14:02Oh, hi.
14:03This is Dr. Bertoski from Northern District's Hospital.
14:06I'm calling in regards to your wife's ultrasound.
14:08She's not my wife.
14:09What can I do for you?
14:10I'm afraid there's been a mix-up.
14:13What kind of mix-up?
14:14I can't give that information out of the telephone.
14:17Well, I'm the father.
14:18Yeah, I know.
14:19That's why I'm calling.
14:20I can't seem to track down this file.
14:22So I was hoping that you might be able to pass the message on.
14:24What did you want us to do?
14:26If you both come in, I'll be able to explain everything.
14:28Well, as soon as I find her, we'll come straight in.
14:34Good work.
14:39Get lost.
14:40Wait.
14:41It's about the baby.
14:42The hospital phone.
14:43There's some problem with the ultrasound.
14:44They need to see us.
14:46Who called from the hospital?
14:48Dr. Bertoski.
14:49Well, that's ridiculous.
14:51They wouldn't have called for no reason.
14:52Come on, I'll drive you down there.
14:54I'm not going back there.
14:55What?
14:56Look, I got the right ultrasound printout.
14:58I know I did.
14:59Well, what if they've seen some kind of problem?
15:01I was there, Scott.
15:02I saw the baby on the screen and everything's fine.
15:05Look, I'm sure it's just some clerical error.
15:07I'll go back down there later and sort it out myself.
15:09Let's just go down there.
15:10No.
15:12Will you stop being so immature just to get back at me?
15:15You're the one who can't commit to a relationship with the mother of your child.
15:19A responsible guy doesn't get a woman pregnant and then run back to his ex-girlfriend.
15:23I'm trying to do the right thing here, okay?
15:25But if you're too irrational to see that...
15:27What?
15:28Then you'll walk out on me again?
15:30To tell you the truth, I wish I never met you.
15:33Yeah, well, I'm not exactly thrilled about it either, but you are pregnant and we are stuck with each other.
15:37Oh, that's just charming, that is.
15:40You know, I'm starting to think you're right about cutting off all ties, and if that's what you want, then
15:43you got it.
16:08Okay, everyone, pen's down.
16:11and just leave your exam papers on the table face down
16:13and head outside the room.
16:18I think I did a pay. How about you?
16:20I completely stuffed it.
16:21Look, don't worry. I'm sure you did better than you think.
16:23No, I didn't.
16:25But you went over the pay again last night, didn't you?
16:27Yes, and my brain wasn't working properly.
16:29I couldn't even understand when I was right
16:30and how the market's supposed to.
16:31It's only one exam. I'm sure you'll lease the next one.
16:34Matt, you don't doubt it, mate.
16:36Yeah, you will. It's your best subject.
16:38We'll talk it through over lunch, just to be sure.
16:40OK, thanks, guys.
16:44It's lovely to see you back in town.
16:46Good to be back, especially when you get such personal service.
16:49I do my best.
16:50You'll have to come in again and show me the snaps of your trip.
16:53I'll do that.
16:54Look what you've done.
16:55Sorry, mate, look, there was an accident.
16:57Watch where you're going, you fool.
16:59Hey, he's calling a fool.
17:00That's got to soak through my case and throw my clothes.
17:03Excuse me, mate, but look, I had to look where you left today.
17:05I could have broken my neck.
17:06No great loss.
17:07Hey, I need to make it unpleasant.
17:09There's no more my fault than yours.
17:10You're lucky I don't send you the bill for the cleaning.
17:16We're stuck together.
17:18They were his exact words.
17:19I'm sure I didn't mean it like that.
17:21And he said that he wasn't too thrilled about the baby.
17:24Scott said that.
17:26Look, I know it's hard for you to believe,
17:28but I'm telling you, I saw a different side of him today.
17:32Look, don't take this the wrong way,
17:34but you must have said something to upset Scott
17:36because he really isn't like that.
17:37So much for this baby bringing us closer together.
17:40I really thought...
17:41I know it's hard, but Scott loves Hayley.
17:43You two having a baby was never going to change that.
17:46But he said that we'd be his priority.
17:48I mean, he told me that outright.
17:49Yeah, well, trust me, the baby is his priority
17:51and he'll be there in a second if you need him.
17:53But like I said yesterday, you have to let him be
17:55because you are the one who's pushing him away.
17:57Hey, Amanda, do you get what I'm saying?
18:03Yeah, yeah, I do.
18:08Hi.
18:09Hi.
18:11I might just cut to the chase
18:12because it's going to be a little bit too difficult to draw out.
18:14I just wanted to talk to you about yesterday.
18:16I was going to come over later and explain too.
18:20Oh, what were you going to say?
18:22No, you go first.
18:25All right.
18:26Um, I just wanted to repeat that clumsy offer for a dinner date.
18:31But this time I was going to make it, like, really suave and sophisticated
18:34and completely impossible to resist.
18:41How did I go?
18:42Uh, suave and sophisticated, I'm not sure.
18:47But impossible to resist, yes.
18:50Really?
18:53Cool.
18:57Don't tell me.
18:58Dad, how was your trip?
19:00I didn't know when to expect you.
19:02Dad, this is Tony.
19:03Yeah, we've already met.
19:05I'm sorry?
19:05Maybe you're not friendly with this moron, are you?
19:10I had a really bad mental block once.
19:12How did you get through it?
19:13Well, I remember I put the exam aside and after about five minutes of thinking about dogs and mountains,
19:19I re-read the question, took a few deep breaths and suddenly it was all there.
19:22See, that's what you should do.
19:24I'll give it a go.
19:26What's that with Dinah?
19:27Well, I'll skip it, guys.
19:29You do need to wait.
19:30No, I'll get Maddy's mum to make one of those sandwich things.
19:33What do you think, guys?
19:33The cockroach traps?
19:35I just thought you'd have a quiet time to keep our dogs and mountains.
19:39Nice.
19:39Okay.
19:40Wait for me outside the room, okay?
19:41Yeah, I'll see you then.
19:57Probably in the mood for a chat, mate.
19:59Are you in the mood for a bit of help?
20:03I got a copy of the math section.
20:05You want?
20:06And it's yours.
20:08For the right amount of cash.
20:10You've still got time to get all the answers.
20:13Yes or no, my friend.
20:36Hello?
20:38Scott.
20:39Amanda, what's wrong?
20:40It's the baby.
20:42What about the baby?
20:43I don't know.
20:45I think there's something wrong.
20:48I think I'm miscarrying.
20:50Just stay calm, okay?
20:52Have you called an ambulance?
20:53I'm losing our baby.
20:56I'm coming.
20:56Just stay where you are, okay?
20:57Just stay there.
21:06If you hate lying witches, you'll love this.
21:10The game's up.
21:12So do you want to explain to me why the mother of our child is called Brenda Cunningham?
21:16What are you talking about?
21:17This is the moment you've been waiting for.
21:20Why did you do this to me?
21:21This witch is gonna get burnt.
21:23On your way tomorrow and coming soon.
21:26I love my brother.
21:28I wish he'd wake up.
21:29I need to know why he killed my lover.
21:32What happened that night?
21:34Headland is coming.
