00:01He can't do this!
00:02Oh, yes he can!
00:03Ryan is my son!
00:05As of this moment, you are officially notified that Daniel is applying for full custody.
00:10Dudley, this is Dan Baker. I met you at the races the other day.
00:13Just looking at doing some more business, so wondering if we can get together.
00:18I think any woman would be lucky to have you.
00:21I think any fellow would be lucky to have you.
00:31You know we belong together
00:36You and I forever and ever
00:40No matter where you are
00:45You're my guiding star
00:49Hold me in your arms, don't let me go
00:54I want to stay forever
00:57Close I reach day
01:01Home and away
01:07What are you doing?
01:08I'm sorry. I don't know what to say.
01:12It's alright. These things happen. People make mistakes.
01:17I must have misread the signals. It's just... I really like you.
01:22Just blame it on the view, eh?
01:24Pretend it never happened?
01:26See, that's what's so amazing about you.
01:28Even in a time like this, you're still a gentleman.
01:31It's really lovely of you to try and make me feel better, but...
01:34Just for the record, it wasn't a mistake.
01:37Well, not for me anyway.
01:40But I'll understand if it's not something that you're interested in.
01:44I should just shut up. I'm making an idiot of myself.
01:50Maybe you're right.
01:51Maybe it's best if we forget it ever happened.
01:55It's not like I deserve someone like you anyway.
02:02Smile for Grandma.
02:05Come on in. Come on in.
02:07Scott, Scott, get in there.
02:08Smile. Oh, you little...
02:10Noah's here. What's going on?
02:12I thought I was bringing you home tomorrow.
02:13I thought I couldn't leave him there, could I?
02:15Not that I didn't want to bring a few of the nurses home with us.
02:18Eh?
02:20Oh, your mum's scared.
02:21She's going to muck it all up without them around.
02:23Oh, I love this. Plenty of help around here if you need it.
02:27Thank you. I'll definitely be taking up on that.
02:29Why didn't you call me? I would have come and got you.
02:30The doctor said I could go and Scott was already there,
02:33so I didn't want to bother you.
02:34Well, it's no bother.
02:35Besides, you don't even have a proper baby seat installed.
02:38Oh, no, Kim, it's cool.
02:39I got one fitted a couple of weeks ago.
02:44How is he?
02:45Yeah, perfect.
02:46We were with the midwives this morning.
02:48They showed me how to feed him properly.
02:49He's really taken to it, haven't you?
02:52You look sharp, mate.
02:54You're on your way out somewhere.
02:55Yeah, it's Collie's birthday.
02:56I was going to meet her for a drink, but I'll cancel.
02:58Oh, Kim, why?
02:59Well, what do you think, Hayley? I want to be here.
03:01Yeah, but we're both here. We can manage.
03:06Oh, dear. Payments lost.
03:08Oh, my big mouse. Scott, can you grab the baby bag, thanks?
03:12Sure, I'll get it.
03:15Come on.
03:17It's been a big day, hasn't it?
03:19Oh, he's tired.
03:21Let's get you to bed.
03:24Have a good night, Kim.
03:26Yeah, thanks.
03:38What are you doing?
03:39Nothing.
03:40I thought you were coming to bed.
03:42Yeah, I was.
03:44My mind's still racing.
03:45Amanda in the court case.
03:47I'm going to stay up for a while on that.
03:49No, it's going to be tough, but it'll be worth it in the end.
03:53Yeah, that's what we're going to keep telling ourselves.
03:55Yeah, I know.
03:57No, don't be too long.
03:59I miss you when you're not here with me.
04:19Hi, Dan.
04:20Sorry for calling so late.
04:21Never mind.
04:22Nature of the business.
04:23It's going to be worth it.
04:24Like last week.
04:25No, no, don't worry.
04:26I got a hot tip.
04:27Haven't we all?
04:29So, how much are we talking?

05:12so tired
05:13actually I don't think I should stick around I don't think he was happy about me being here
05:18what are you talking about I just got the feeling he wants me to back off did he say something
05:25nothing there was a look a look yeah he was surprised because we got home early but
05:34he probably just needs a little while to get used to it
05:39I don't want you to go you'll be fine I bet he's over it already

11:27yeah no I got him go
11:32hey

11:52don't you Leah go fetch Dan roll over Dan cut your ex-wife off from her son Dan do you
11:57really
11:57think he needs any help from me I think you've got him on a leash and he does whatever the
12:01hell
12:01you want well if that was the case you would have done a long time ago because I picked you
12:04for a tramp the first day I saw you oh is that the best you can do you know the
12:08sad thing is
12:08is Ryan's only seven years old and he already knows he's better off without you oh oops I'm sorry

12:37the little vixens got the hide to show a face in public after everything she's done yeah and poor
12:42Danny didn't get any sleep last night worrying over her yeah I suppose having to meet with parents so
12:46late wouldn't help my parents oh the one he met last night the bookie bookie what are you talking
12:51about oh well Dan was in here last night with one of the parents and he's a bookmaker I saw
12:55him at the
12:55races not the sort to have kids I wouldn't have thought but still you never can tell well what time
13:00was this I just before we closed out and no not nothing nothing
13:17glad you could make it oh I was a bit surprised to get your call I thought you might have
13:21been a bit
13:21hungover after the big night at the disco I've got to be more worried about your daddy he was hitting
13:25that top shelf pretty hard mmm that is a bit of a worry now I know how my kids feel
13:29when they think
13:29I'm doing something inappropriate for my age oh really you tell no what about you anyway what
13:38about me oh well you're talking up your dancing skills but we didn't say any moves oh well to be
13:42honest I wasn't really there for the dancing or the music I um I've kind of got my eye on
13:48somebody
13:48who works behind the bar oh really yeah that Alf he's a good-looking boy
13:59well I couldn't keep myself away from you so I thought I'd come here and have breakfast instead
14:02I didn't stop you last night what being away from me you got up in the middle of the night
14:09to come
14:09down here to meet some bookie you told Colleen it was a parent teacher meeting but since when do you
14:13meet anyone that like yeah no it wasn't wasn't a meeting that's what I told Colleen so it was a
14:18booking yeah but I sorted it out you sorted it out it's fine look I've got a call from that
14:23bookie
14:24from the races you know when he reckons that he paid me too much money somebody wants money from
14:27you no no no I showed him the bedding sleep we realized he made a mistake I mean obviously in
14:31the wrong game if you can't do maths but that's not my problem are you sure yeah wasn't it good
14:37yeah what's going on with you great yeah I mean though it's a long story to me
14:53Amanda look you don't have to say anything I embarrassed myself and I think it's better if
14:59we both just forget it ever happened that's what you want I already told you it wasn't a mistake but
15:07if you don't feel the same way Amanda just really hard for me to imagine that a girl like you
15:16I know
15:17I'm a young woman and I could have anyone so why am I making a pass at you pretty much
15:22sums it up yeah
15:23I guess numbers just aren't as important to me as the qualities in a person you don't have to feel
15:29sorry for me I've been let down before well maybe you should have a bloke with a bit of backbone
15:34do you
15:36know where I could find one of those I could make some suggestions over a coffee if you've got time
15:40it sounds perfect
15:52they're calling a track heavy today but a couple of the starters won't mind that at all
15:57Sonny Jim likes the mud and this distance is really going to suit him waiting for the start
16:12hey what's up you're not sick oh no but I think I might be losing my mind I left those
16:17books out
16:17there so I wouldn't forget to take them with me and of course I walk straight past them are you
16:22off to
16:23the accountant now uh no no he's coming in this afternoon you all right you seem a bit edgy no

17:07I just want to support Hayley it's got nothing to do with cutting in on Kim or shutting him out
17:11well you've got to look at it from his point of view yeah I am but he's still angry that
17:15me and
17:15Hayley are actually together it's just adding time well it's gonna take some time I mean Kim needs to
17:21feel more secure I suppose in the meantime you need to be as sensitive as possible

19:08but I don't care
19:10I really like you Graham
19:12and it's not often that you find someone that you can feel that way about
