00:01It's important to stay positive, but know that many couples aren't successful the first time.
00:04So don't get your hopes up too high.
00:06Yeah, no, we understand.
00:07We'll see you in two weeks for a pregnancy test.
00:09Yeah, thanks, Doctor.
00:11Honestly, Grandad, how many times do I have to tell you I'm fine?
00:14You're not fine, love. You haven't been out for days.
00:17Sleeping all the time, you won't talk.
00:20It's okay to admit this business with Corey's not...
00:23It's got nothing to do with him!
00:26Sorry, Grandad, but I told you I'm fine, okay?
00:28I don't need to talk to anyone because there's nothing to talk about.
00:32Can we just drop it?
00:59No matter where you are, you're my guiding star.
01:09Hold me in your arms, don't let me go.
01:14I want to stay forever.
01:17Close our reach, stay home and away.
01:28Have you talked to her?
01:29Of course I'd flame and talk to her.
01:31I even set young Jack up to see if he could get through to her.
01:34Well, Martha would have loved that.
01:36Yeah, obviously.
01:37He reckons she damn near picked him up and threw him out.
01:39Well, she probably just needs a bit of time and get her head around things.
01:42What she needs is someone to shake some flame and sense into her.
01:45This business with Corey's obviously knocked the wind out of her,
01:48but she's too damn stubborn to admit it.
01:53Do you think maybe she'd see a counsellor?
01:55Not likely.
01:56Okay, well, perhaps we should try and talk to her.
01:58We all have, mate.
01:59I reckon Jack's right.
02:01If she reckons she's okay,
02:03well, maybe we don't have much choice but to leave her to her.
02:07We can't just leave her to her, Grandad.
02:09If she needs help, we've got to make sure she gets it.
02:12All right, well, have a go, but...
02:13Okay.
02:14I'll give it a try.
02:15Just don't be surprised if she's not real keen on talking to you.
02:18That's all I'm saying.
02:19You know, any Grandad noise got away with the ladies?
02:21Oh, yeah, he really took my breath away.
02:26Hello?
02:29Martha.
02:31Oh, come on.
02:32Martha!
02:32What happened?
02:33Oh, God.
02:34I don't think she can breathe, Rick.
02:35Hey, Rick, go get help.
02:36Go, Martha.
02:37Martha, come on.
02:38Just relax.
02:39Relax.
02:40There you go, Jackie.
02:41You might as well keep the camera going.
02:42Mr Stewart, you've got to help.
02:43Hey?
02:43It's Martha.
02:44There's something wrong with her.
02:45She's collapsed.
02:45Come on.
02:45What's wrong with her?
02:47Deep breaths.
02:47Just focus on your breathing.
02:48Come on.
02:49What?
02:49Yes, you can.
02:50You can.
02:50Just relax, all right?
02:51You've just got to breathe.
02:54What's up with her?
02:54I don't know.
02:55We just walked in and found her like this.
02:57Martha, what's wrong, love?
02:59Get help quick on the phone.
03:00Is she going to be all right?
03:01I don't know, mate.
03:02It's going to be hard again.
03:04Jesus Christ, Hayley, now this.
03:06Hang in there, love.
03:07Hang in there.
03:08We're here for you.
03:09So what time are you due at the hospital?
03:11Later on this afternoon.
03:12Wait, not many people get excited about having needles and blood, Ted.
03:15Yes, well, it's not every day you find out you're pregnant.
03:17Do you think you are?
03:19Well, I don't want to jinx it.
03:21But?
03:21Well, I know the odds with IVF.
03:23But we scored a hole-in-one with hippity, didn't we?
03:25So I don't see what...
03:25I know, I know.
03:26Don't get my hopes up.
03:28Well, I'll probably be in the hospital a bit later, so I'll see you in there.
03:31So how's it going at work?
03:33Fine.
03:34Really?
03:34Just Dr's hours seem quite long, even for someone who's completely healthy.
03:39Oh, yeah, some days are definitely better than others, but mostly it's fine.
03:42In fact, in the good days I sort of have some wins and I forget.
03:46It's just me sort of doing my job and leading my life.
03:51They're the good moments.
03:53Oh, polished your shoes, boys?
03:55Dusted off your party frocks, girls?
03:57What are we getting dressed up for?
03:58Oh, don't tell me you've forgotten.
04:00Race Day, it's going to be the event of the season.
04:02You are going to be there, aren't you?
04:04Oh, well, Colin, aren't you?
04:05Well, Madge Wilkins and I are going to make a day of it.
04:07In fact, one of Madge's nephews is one of the jockeys,
04:10and he's promised us some hot tips straight from the horse's blinker, so to speak.
04:14Is that right?
04:15Yeah, and if you're lucky, I might be willing to share some of my inside information with you
04:20so that you can follow the smart money too.
04:23That'd be good.
04:24It'll be a long day.
04:25You think you'll be up for it?
04:26Well, for drinking beers and putting money on the ponies, absolutely.
04:30Well, if you guys are in, then I don't see why we should be.
04:33Sorry, now you're going to have to count me out.
04:34I've got a whole heap of marking to catch up.
04:36Oh, come on, mate.
04:37It'll be fun.
04:38Yeah, you can't say no.
04:39We'll be dressed to the nines, sipping champagne.
04:41Are you having our pictures taken in the winner's circle?
04:44Oh, I just can't do it.
04:46Sorry.
04:47Oh, I'm going to say he's too stingy to put a bet on.
04:49Yes, well, he is.
04:51He doesn't even go in the sweats on Melbourne Cup Day, do you, mate?
04:53Yeah, well, old Scrooge is about to pay for his drinks, but people talk.
04:57You know, at a super life, I have to watch you
04:59because he starts putting things on the shelf.
05:02Out of the trolley.
05:03Yeah, he does.
05:04I know, he does.
05:07Well, Cassie, slow down.
05:09What is it?
05:09Start at the beginning.
05:13That's the way.
05:14Nice big breaths.
05:16What's going on, Doc?
05:17Oh, she's fine.
05:18She just had a panic attack.
05:19Are you sure?
05:20Seemed more like a flaming heart attack.
05:22I'm okay, Grandad.
05:23Yeah, but you couldn't breathe.
05:24And what about the pains in your chest?
05:27Don't you reckon she should go to the hospital?
05:28Yes, I do, just for a quick check-up
05:30because we've got to be concerned about your heart
05:32after the cardiac arrest.
05:35Let's set it off, though.
05:38Look, this thing with Corey isn't going to just go away.
05:42That's why I reckon you should see someone.
05:43You know, talk it over.
05:44I don't need to talk it over.
05:45I need to forget about it.
05:47That's what I thought, too.
05:49But when someone does something like that to you,
05:51it just totally takes advantage.
05:53No matter how hard you try, you can't just forget it.
05:56Cassie's right, Martha.
05:58Counselling has really helped her, hasn't it?
05:59Yeah, in ways I didn't even know it could.
06:02And you don't have to do it alone, either.
06:04I can go with you if you want.
06:05I don't need to talk to anyone about it.
06:07It's my problem and I'll deal with it.
06:08But you're not dealing with it, love.
06:09You've just had a panic attack.
06:11That's right, I have.
06:12And you want to know why?
06:13Because you won't let me forget about it.
06:15Every time I turn around, you're there reminding me of it.
06:18And I'm sick of it.
06:19The sooner you back off and let me move on,
06:21the better it will be for everyone, especially me.
06:32So it's...
06:32Hey!
06:33Hi, guys.
06:34Listen, Dr. Green's been held up in surgery,
06:36so he's asked me to do your blood test.
06:37So, is that OK?
06:38Yeah.
06:39I'll just grab your file, won't be long.
06:41It's not just me, is it?
06:43He looks tired.
06:44I wonder how long he can keep doing this.
06:46Well, he stops work.
06:47What's that saying?
06:49Well, I guess it's saying what we all don't want to hear,
06:50you know, that he's one step closer.
06:53I don't want to think about that.
06:54Sometimes it's all I can think about.
06:56It's weird.
06:57We are trying to bring another life into the world,
06:59and it's one of our friends trying to hold on to his.
07:03Now, I think focusing on this baby helps me cope.
07:07When I first heard about Flynn, I couldn't imagine losing her.
07:10I still can't imagine it.
07:12But I think thinking about this baby,
07:15you know, I can see things a bit clearer.
07:17It's all a cycle.
07:19Unfortunately, we can't escape it.
07:21All we can do is hold on to hope.
07:23For me, it's our baby.
07:26Sorry about that.
07:27You ready for this?
07:28Yeah.
07:29Let's go.
07:39So she's still not going to go see anyone?
07:42I don't think so.
07:43And believe me, we tried.
07:45That's crazy.
07:45Yeah, well, tell us something we don't know, eh?
07:47It's bad enough she's not going to get this thing fixed up.
07:50What happens if she has another panic attack?
07:52Look, there's got to be something we can do.
07:54Well, all right, maybe counselling isn't a thing.
07:56Maybe there's something else that'll work.
07:57Like what?
07:58I don't know, but if we can at least figure out what the problem is,
08:01then we should probably start there.
08:03That's a great idea.
08:04It is.
08:05Yeah, and I know exactly what we can do.
08:07I'm going to need you guys to give me a hand.
08:14Good day, Miss McKenzie.
08:15Fancy soon you're here.
08:16How are you feeling?
08:17I'm OK.
08:18Really?
08:19Yes, really.
08:21Guys, you don't have to worry.
08:23I'm fine.
08:24Cool.
08:25And I don't need any babysitters.
08:28We're not here to hang out, pet.
08:30Yeah, we're here to take you out.
08:31Well, I don't want to go anywhere.
08:33I kind of thought you'd say that.
08:35Which is why we're going to make you come with us anyway.
08:37Where?
08:38Self-defence class.
08:40Self-defence class.
08:42Mm-hmm.
08:43This whole thing, this whole panic attack business
08:45is because you don't know how to defend yourself, right?
08:47So we thought, let's fix it.
08:50And that's why you're coming to self-defence class with us.
08:52There is no way I'm going to some stupid girl
08:55who kick him in the kahunas, pep rally.
08:57Oh, but you see, that's where you're wrong.
09:00Yes, because we're not going anywhere without you.
09:02Mm-hmm.
09:03Come on.
09:07I don't think it's going to be a problem.
09:09Because if you think about it,
09:10it's only my tubes that are damaged, right?
09:12But IVF bypasses them anyway
09:13and implants the inverse straight into the ears.
09:15Yeah, I'm sure we'll find out soon enough, OK?
09:17Flynn might be too much.
09:17You know, I could be pregnant right now.
09:19Yeah, you might, but, you know...
09:20Yeah, I know, I know.
09:21I'm just saying that if you look at all the factors,
09:23there's no reason why I wouldn't be.
09:25Fair enough, yes.
09:26As long as you know that I love you either way.
09:28Yeah, I know.
09:29I love you too.
09:31Tell you what, I'm in the wrong business.
09:33There's no way my customers wait this on for service.
09:35Oh, sure, but whipping up a burger's a bit easier
09:37than whipping up a baby.
09:38Mm, yeah, I guess.
09:49OK, we've got the test results back
09:51and they're not what we're hoping for.
09:53I'm afraid the embryo hasn't taken.
09:55So I'm not pregnant?
09:56No, you're not pregnant, mate.
09:57I'm really sorry.
10:00OK, I've had a look around.
10:01I've got him.
10:02No, but we're here now.
10:03I can't believe I let you guys talk in.
10:05Come here.
10:05Yeah, well, you did.
10:06So just chill out, all right?
10:08Who teaches this crummy class anyway?
10:10Hey.
10:12Oh, I'll leave you to.
10:13I don't need help from Jack.
10:15Good, because this class is all about helping yourself.
10:17Guys, would you like to line up for us?
10:25Well, we thought this might happen.
10:31Yeah, that's OK.
10:31This is our first go.
10:33Like I said, we can't get ahead of ourselves.
10:36Yeah.
10:36I was just sure.
10:38Yeah, I know.
10:39But we will get there.
10:42Listen, why don't I give you guys some space?
10:44Stay here for as long as you like.
10:46And if you've got any questions, don't hesitate to call me or Dr. Green.
10:50I really am sorry.
11:05Hello, Mr. Stewart.
11:07Oh, g'day, Sal.
11:08Come in, love.
11:08Sorry to drop in like this.
11:10No worries.
11:11I had some paperwork to get done at the school, so I thought I'd bring your reference around.
11:14Killed two birds with one stone.
11:15Oh, it looks pretty flash.
11:16Thanks, love.
11:17How's it all going?
11:18Do you think you're going to be ready for court?
11:20Well, the trial could still be months away.
11:22But there's a lot of running around to do just to keep the pen pushes happy.
11:25You know how it is.
11:26Matter of fact, I've got to go to a meeting in the city tomorrow night.
11:30But I'll tell you what, that doesn't bear thinking about compared to what you're going through.
11:34How are things?
11:35Well, it's not easy, but, um, yeah, we're getting there too.
11:40We're just trying to keep things as normal as possible for as long as possible.
11:45I mean, we both know what's coming, but, um, we're just taking it a day at a time, making the
11:53most of whatever we've got left.
11:55Well, that sounds like a pretty good plan to me, have I seen more?
11:59That's the only one we've got, so...
12:03You know, it's...
12:04It's just weird.
12:06I mean, there's so many things about all this that I just would never have imagined.
12:11Like what?
12:13Well, Flynn told Leah and Dan this morning that sometimes he forgets he's dying.
12:22You know, he can get so busy at work he almost feels normal.
12:28I mean, I feel like that too sometimes.
12:30I mean, I...
12:31I feel like that every morning.
12:33Well, that's a good thing, sir.
12:36Yeah.
12:38I wake up in his arms and for those first couple of seconds and everything just feels the way it's
12:47supposed to be.
12:48I mean, I feel...
12:49I just feel so safe.
12:53But then it comes back, this horrible sinking feeling.
13:02And that's...
13:05That's when this throbbing starts, when this...
13:09There's just...
13:11Pain in my heart.
13:15It doesn't go away again until I climb into bed and go to sleep that night.
13:25It's what my days are like now and I...
13:28I just wish so much.
13:34I can't keep...
13:36Doing this.
13:37Flynn doesn't need a...
13:38Blubbering idiot.
13:40You're not a blubbering idiot, Sal.
13:44In fact, I reckon you're pretty amazing.
13:47I feel amazing.
13:51My stomach just feels scared.
13:55It's...
13:56It's hard now, but at least we're together.
14:01What am I gonna do when he's gone?
14:10Oh.
14:18And step into your attacker using the heel of your hand to hit them hard on the nose.
14:23Okay, we're gonna do two more.
14:25And one.
14:26Two.
14:28Excellent work, guys.
14:30Okay, our next exercise, I'll get you to grab yourself a partner and pair up.
14:36Looks like you're with me.
14:38Okay, guys, we know how to look after ourselves when we're threatened from the front, but what
14:42about when we're grabbed from behind?
14:43So now I'm gonna get my lovely assistant to help us out with this one.
14:46No, you're not.
14:47Why not?
14:48This is a perfect opportunity to beat me up.
14:51Excellent.
14:52There's three steps.
14:54Firstly, I'm gonna wrap my arms around her in a bear hug.
14:58It's a part of the exercise.
15:00Then, she's gonna stamp down on my foot.
15:02The floor will do for now.
15:04Hit me in the stomach as hard as she can.
15:06By then, you should be able to turn around and grab your attacker by the hair.
15:10For now, you can just grab behind the neck and knee them as hard as you can on the face.
15:14Okay.
15:15Think you can do that?
15:16I think I can handle that.
15:17Alrighty.
15:18Tell me when you're...
15:23How do I handle that?
15:24I think you're a natural.
15:25What do you guys reckon?
15:27Do you guys want to give it a go?
15:29Let's go again.
15:30Yeah, what do you reckon?
15:33Anything I can help you with, pet?
15:39Oh, poor dear.
15:40Something's got to go tonight.
15:42I tried, but she didn't want to share the boot.
15:44Thanks anyway, Colin.
15:49How you going?
15:50Hey, Colin, we said we'd stay positive.
15:52Yeah, well, that was before Flynn confirmed on damaged goods.
15:55Leah, this is just a setback, is it?
15:58It's hard, you know, and it's hard being on all these meds because it's making me really hormonal.
16:03We'll keep going until we get the bank.
16:05How? How, Dan? We can't even afford it.
16:06I don't know.
16:07It's three and a half thousand dollars a go.
16:09Now, I don't know if you've seen our bank account, but we've had about all the goes we can have.
16:12Well, we'll find the money.
16:13Well, how? How are we going to find it? I don't have it, and I don't have a magical wand
16:16either, you know?
16:17Yeah, come on, come on.
16:18Hey.
16:18I can't believe it. I'm saying this. I should be grateful with what I've got, but I really want this
16:24baby.
16:24Yeah, I want it too, okay? We're not going to give up.
16:30Look after yourself this afternoon, okay?
16:31All right.
16:32Yeah.
16:34I'll see you a bit later.
16:35Yeah, very good.
16:38Hey, how's Leah?
16:41Oh, not so good.
16:43You want to talk about it?
16:44Oh, mate, there's not much to talk about, really.
16:46Just Leah's gutted because the IVF didn't work, and I feel like a goose.
16:50I don't even know what to say to her.
16:51I just never thought I'd have to go through something like this.
16:53You know I would do anything to take back.
16:56Oh, Flynn, look, it's not going to help anyone go in there again.
16:58You know, we've all got enough on our plate without digging up the past, but thanks.
17:02It's not easy, sir, accepting that there's things that we can't control.
17:07I'm just saying, Madge Wilkins has connections. The tip is good.
17:11Yeah, well, I'd rather roll me money up and smoke it than put it on a flaming Madge Wilkins tip.
17:15Could I be pleased with that?
17:16Yeah, well, you can turn your nose up, Al, Stuart, but don't come crying to me tomorrow when I'm in
17:20the money,
17:21because I'm going to bet the farm.
17:22I think you mean the mobile home, don't you, Cora?
17:24The Madge assures me that her tip is as good as gold, so there should be plenty to go around.
17:37Hey, Van Damme, you're awesome.
17:39Totally. I wouldn't want to run into you in a dark alley.
17:41Yeah, you've actually really got into it.
