00:24Let's go, let's go, let's go!
00:54Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go!
01:07Let's go, let's go, let's go, let's go!
01:21Let's go, let's go, let's go!
01:22It's over, right?
01:22Take it easy, Peter!
01:27Constable Holden here, we need an ambulance, we've got a man down.
01:32Where is she?
01:32Peter let them do their job.
01:33Just tell me where she is.
01:35Alright, what have we got?
01:35I'm no male, penetrating upper chest trauma due to high-velocity gunshot wound.
01:39We couldn't stop the bleeding so we just did a load and go.
01:41Alright, come on mate, wake up!
01:42He's gotta wake up!
01:43Alright, Peter, stand back, please.
01:45Pupils, three and equal, left side normal, right sluggish to light.
01:48There's light everywhere here.
01:49Alright, let's get him into recess.
01:50Look, he's gonna live, isn't he?
01:51We won't know until we get him into recess.
01:53You've gotta keep him alive.
01:53Just take it easy, mate.
01:54Look, he is our only link to Zoe.
01:56We can't afford to lose him, right?
02:02Isn't it exciting?
02:04Martha and Jack are gonna be so thrilled.
02:06Oh, just remember, it's a surprise engagement party, so not a word.
02:09Uh, that means you, Al.
02:12Oh, Irene!
02:15Oh, um, look, I wouldn't take it personally.
02:18Happy couples are probably the last thing she wants to deal with right now.
02:21Don't worry, love, we'll all be there.
02:23Hey guys, what's going on?
02:25Oh, I was just, uh, telling everybody about a party that I've been invited to.
02:31Nothing to do with you, Martha.
02:32Uh, why don't you take a seat and I'll come over and grab your order.
02:36Good save, Connie.
02:38Maybe I should try to talk to her.
02:40About Barry? Forget it.
02:42Yeah, we've been trying for the last couple of weeks.
02:44She just doesn't want to hear it.
02:45Oh, but she had plenty to say when Barry went over to her house the other day,
02:48gave him a right royal serving and threw him out.
02:51Really?
02:51Yeah, good honour, I say.
02:53You're not feeling sorry for him, are you?
02:55After he sat back and let the whole town get put through the ringer for something he did.
02:58I'm not saying that what he did was right.
03:01Far from it.
03:01It's just, it's a sad situation.
03:03I mean, Barry living upstairs and Irene down here.
03:05Yeah, well, not that you'd even know.
03:06He never even pops his head down.
03:08Well, has anyone spoken to him?
03:10Do we know how he's coping?
03:11To be honest, I don't think anyone cares much.
03:13No.
03:14Kim cares.
03:15He's up there every day.
03:16It can't be easy on him.
03:19They're out of chickens.
03:20I'll get your ham instead.
03:21Did you bring the paper?
03:23Oh, no.
03:26I thought they would've stopped printing stories about me by now.
03:29It's not that bad.
03:30Just as long as you haven't had any more trouble because of me, that's all.
03:32I haven't, so stop worrying.
03:35The only person getting on my nerves at the moment is Charlie.
03:38What's he doing?
03:38I get this.
03:39He calls me up this morning at 6am and asks if I want to go for a swim.
03:42What's wrong with that?
03:44It was 6 in the morning, Dad.
03:456am.
03:46Who calls someone at that time?
03:50Shouldn't you be at the gym?
03:51Yeah, I've got one of the other guys to cover for me.
03:53You should be there, Kim.
03:54I don't want you putting your life on hold because of me.
03:56Who says I'm doing that?
03:58What about Rachel?
03:59You've hardly seen her lately.
04:00Yeah, I have.
04:01I'm just dropping around to say g'day, see how you're doing.
04:04That's very kind and I appreciate it, but I'm fine.
04:08Now go on, let me eat my lunch in peace for once, will you?
04:13Right.
04:16What if you need anything?
04:17I'll call, now go.
04:50What's taking him so long?
04:51Sure that we'll hear something soon.
04:56Did you get my message?
04:57With the description of the guy?
04:58Yes.
04:59First I want to know how he got shot.
05:00Was he even armed?
05:01No, we were in pursuit and he was getting away and I just-
05:03Shot him.
05:03What choice did I have?
05:05He wouldn't respond, I thought it was Zoe McAllister.
05:08Is he awake?
05:09Could I see him?
05:09He's still unconscious.
05:10But he is going to live, isn't he?
05:11Well, he managed to stop the bleeding.
05:13He did lose a lot of blood.
05:14He also took a nasty hit to the head.
05:16How bad is it?
05:17Well, we've sent him for a CT scan, but we won't be able to complete our neurological assessment
05:20until he wakes up.
05:21But he will wake up, alright?
05:22He has to.
05:22I mean, I need to speak to him.
05:23He needs to be alive and coherent.
05:25Perhaps you should have thought of that before you shot him, detective.
05:27I was doing my job.
05:29I suggest you do yours.
05:30Peter, we are doing everything that we can for him.
05:32And if that's not good enough for you, then I might ask you to leave.
05:34I'm not going anywhere.
05:36Constable, wait here and let us know as soon as there's any news.
05:38Pete, let's go.
05:39I need to be here.
05:40No, you don't.
05:45I want to know the moment that he wakes up.
05:48What the hell is this guy supposed to have done?
05:50That's what we need to find out.
05:53You shot an unarmed suspect.
05:55Look, that guy is our only link to Zoe.
05:56I wasn't going to let him get away.
05:57You'd be lucky if you've still got a job after this.
05:59Not to mention being up on manslaughter charges if he doesn't make it.
06:02He is going to make it.
06:03I know you want to get Zoe, Peter.
06:04But you've got to exercise a bit of self-control and get some perspective on this.
06:08Perspective?
06:09The people in this town are in serious danger if we don't...
06:11I think the office would be a more appropriate place for this conversation, don't you?
06:14Hey guys, you've already got someone in your office.
06:16She's been there for quite a while.
06:22Sal.
06:23Hi.
06:24What's up?
06:25Maybe you can tell me.
06:29I found this in my house.
06:39I want to know what's going on, Peter.
06:42And this time I want the truth.
06:46My mother used to say that you should always take people as you find them.
06:51You've always been a very good friend to me, Barry.
06:56I'm not saying that I condone what you do.
06:57I know what you're saying.
06:59It's more than I deserve.
07:06Are you okay?
07:07Yeah.
07:08Oh.
07:09Sorry, that's a silly question.
07:12Is there anything that I could do to help?
07:15Well, perhaps you could answer a question.
07:18I've been trying to speak with Irene lately.
07:21Yeah, I heard.
07:23Well, do you think there's any point of making another attempt?
07:28I thought as much.
07:30Mm.
07:31Look, if you want me to, I could try to talk to you.
07:34No, no.
07:35I can't ask you to do that.
07:38The main thing is to help Irene, and seeing me will only cause her more pain.
07:45I've already caused enough suffering for Irene, for Kim, and everyone else.
07:50I think it's time I put an end to it.
07:57That is impossible.
07:58We were both at the tire factory that day.
08:00We saw her die.
08:01We saw an explosion.
08:03You found the body.
08:04It wasn't Zoe's.
08:05It was a girl named Laura McPherson.
08:07Who?
08:08Do you remember you said that when you were tied up you thought you heard Zoe talking to someone?
08:12Yeah, she was talking to herself.
08:14She was crazy.
08:15We now know she was keeping another girl at the warehouse that day.
08:18Laura.
08:18That's who she was talking to.
08:20The dental records proved that somehow Zoe managed to survive.
08:24And now she's back.
08:26She's back in the bay and she's been in my house.
08:28It looks like it, yes.
08:30How long have you known about this for?
08:31A little while.
08:33So you've known that she's still out there and you've kept it from us?
08:36I didn't want everyone to panic, okay?
08:37My job is to make sure-
08:38Well, your job is to keep people safe.
08:40And we believe that the best way to do that is by keeping this to ourselves.
08:44Are you out of your mind?
08:45People deserve to know.
08:46My family deserves to know.
08:48You have to tell them.
08:49Sally, I can't do that.
08:50Well, yes you can, Peter.
08:52Because if you don't, I will.
09:20It's me.
09:21I need to see you.
09:23All right, but I can't come now.
09:25Well, Sally's called a meeting.
09:26I'll get there as soon as I can.
09:28What's this about?
09:28Why does Sally want to see us?
09:29I'm fine.
09:29I'm fine.
09:29I'm fine.
09:30You're insane.
09:30You know what-
09:31Sally.
09:33Sally.
09:33Sally, what's going on?
09:34Peter's got something to tell us.
09:36Everyone, this is Detective Thompson from CID in the city.
09:39Can you get to the point?
09:39What's this all about?
09:41It's about Zoe McAllister.
09:43She's still alive.
09:44What?
09:45How can she be?
09:45You saw her die.
09:47We thought we did, but it turns out that she faked her own death.
09:49Come again?
09:51Somebody else died in that fire, not Zoe.
09:53The reason we're telling you this is because we believe that she's back in Summer Bay.
09:57She's what?
09:57She's the one that broke in here.
09:59What?
09:59She's been in here?
09:59Look, I know that you all have a lot of questions, but it's really important that you stay calm
10:03and keep this information to yourself.
10:05You're kidding, aren't you?
10:06How can people protect themselves if they don't know she's out there?
10:09If we're going to catch this woman, we need to avoid the whole town going into a panic.
10:12Oh, that's easy for you to say.
10:13I'm asking for you to trust us, okay?
10:15By you telling everyone that she's back in the Bay is just going to jeopardize our whole operation.
10:18Oh, right, so we're just sitting here...
10:19We know what we're doing, right?
10:21And it is crucial that you keep this information to yourselves, okay?
10:23Well, you're not giving us much choice, are you?
10:25Thanks, right away.
10:26Ah, that was Constable Holden.
10:28Our man's awake.
10:29Okay, we have to go.
10:30Hang on a minute.
10:31What are we supposed to do now?
10:32Nothing.
10:33Just call us if you happen to see anything suspicious, okay?
10:36Thanks.
10:37Oh, ghost.
10:40The CT scan was normal.
10:42So it's just a concussion?
10:43Yeah, he's very lucky.
10:44Where is he?
10:46Look, he's regained consciousness, but he's still very drowsy.
10:48I need to talk to him now.
10:49He is in no state to answer any questions.
10:51Doctor, this is a very serious police matter.
10:53We need time alone with this patient.
11:03Where's Zoe McAllister?
11:04What?
11:04What?
11:05Don't you mess me around.
11:06You just tell me where she is.
11:07I know what you're on about.
11:08Zoe McAllister.
11:09Where is she?
11:10I don't know any Zoe McAllister.
11:12Yeah?
11:13What about Eve Jacobson then, huh?
11:14I've never heard of her.
11:15You listen to me!
11:16If you don't tell me exactly what you know, you're going to be sorry you woke up!
11:19Stop talking!
11:19Stop talking!
11:20Hey, I'll tell you!
11:23Yeah?
11:23Everything?
11:24Yeah.
11:25But I want something in return.
11:27Yeah?
11:28What's that, huh?
11:29You have to promise you'll protect me.
11:32From her.
11:36So you want to leave town?
11:37I've decided that it's best that I stay in the city till my trial gets underway.
11:41Well, I thought you wanted to spend whatever time he had left with Kim.
11:44Quality time, yes, but it's become impossible.
11:46Ah, the harassment.
11:48It never ends.
11:49Wherever he turns, he's reminded of the fact that his father's a murderer.
11:52It's time I put an end to it.
11:54Yeah, well, leaving the bay won't necessarily guarantee that.
11:56And from what I've seen, Kim seems to be handling the pressure really well.
11:59But he shouldn't have to.
12:00Neither should Irene.
12:02Anything I can say to change your mind?
12:06Fine.
12:07Well, it shouldn't be too much of a problem to change your bail conditions.
12:12And from what I've heard, it's probably a very good time to leave the bay anyway.
12:16Is this the woman you're working for?
12:18I don't know.
12:19What do you mean you don't know?
12:20We've never met.
12:21She always gives me orders over the phone.
12:24So you got a phone number?
12:25No.
12:26She calls me from a private number.
12:28What kind of orders does she give you?
12:30Weird stuff like...
12:32I had to set up some dummies in an old tire factory and leave some notes around.
12:37What else?
12:38She got me to break into the house at the caravan park.
12:41I had to ransack the place and leave a special red light bulb in the kitchen.
12:45It said Tick Tock on it.
12:46Is there anything else she made you do?
12:48Anything unusual?
12:49Well, every time I did her job, she said I had to wear the same black outfit with the balaclava.
12:55It's weird, I know, but that's the deal.
12:57And her name?
12:59Come on, you expect me to believe that you don't know the name of the person you're working for?
13:03Can you really protect me from her?
13:06Yes, of course.
13:10Her name is Maxine.
13:13Maxine Trude.
13:13That's all I know, I swear.
13:22Dad, I told you I'm fine. I can handle it.
13:25I can't. Not anymore.
13:27I hate what I've done and I can't stand to see you suffer for it.
13:30This will make things easier on both of us.
13:32Dad, don't do this.
13:35Sooner or later, I'd have to go anyway. We both know that.
13:39Yeah, but you don't have to go yet.
13:41I mean, when am I going to see you? I thought we were going to spend a bit of time
13:43together.
13:44What we have these past two years have been the best years of my life.
13:46Those are the memories I want to take with me.
13:49If I stay, you'll only be marred by the mistakes I've made.
13:51I don't want to leave things like that.
13:54What makes you think it's going to be any better if you go?
13:56Because I won't be around to remind you of what I've done.
13:58You'll be able to get on with your life, with the memories of the good times.
14:01Dad, I told you it's not like that.
14:02Kim, I appreciate what you're trying to say, but deep down you know I'm right.
14:08I have to go.
14:11It's for the best.
14:23It wouldn't take too long to sign the necessary papers down to the station numbers.
14:32Well, then it's off to the city.
14:36The quicker the better, I guess.
14:54Can you pass this on?
14:58I'll miss you, son.
15:04I meant what I said before.
15:06These last few years.
15:08Yeah, I know.
15:15See you soon.
15:20I search for you.
15:24For your forgiveness.
15:36Dad wanted me to give you this.
15:38I don't want it.
15:42Kim, I'm not going to read it.
15:43Then don't.
15:44Do what you like.
15:45I really don't care anymore.
15:46But Dad wanted you to have it.
15:50I can't find you.
15:55I can't find you.
15:57I can't find you.
15:57I can't find you.
16:15My dear Irene, how do I begin to express the regret I'm feeling?
16:23Perhaps by telling you that I never, ever meant to hurt you.
16:28For what I've done, and for the pain it has caused you, I'm more sorry than words could ever convey.
16:36I only hope that my leaving will help ease some of that pain.
16:42I've made some unforgivable mistakes, and chief among them, I've made you doubt whether you ever really knew me at
16:50all.
16:52Please know that you did, Irene.
16:55And please know that I still love you.
16:58That will never change.
17:00I will never forget you.
17:01I will never stop missing you.
17:03And the wonderful times we've had.
17:07All my love, Barry.
17:16There's no record of Maxine Trude on the database.
17:19No surprises there.
17:21Trude, I think I've heard that name somewhere before.
17:23It sounds very familiar.
17:24That's unusual.
17:25Last year's I used the name Walha Rees.
17:28Which turned out to be an anagram for Sarah Lewis.
17:29You think Maxine Trude could mean something as well?
17:31Well, it's a possibility, so let's try and break it down.
17:37Where are the whiteboard markers?
17:38There's a whole box here this morning.
17:39I'm sure they're around somewhere.
17:40Well, they're not now, are they?
17:42What the hell is wrong with this place?
17:43Why can't people just leave my stuff alone?
17:45I'll get you another box.
17:48You need to take a break, Peter.
17:51We need to solve this case.
17:52This is our only lead on Zoe.
17:53No, you need to go home.
17:54No, I don't.
17:56Look at you.
17:56You're tired, you're stressed out, you're ineffective.
17:58I can handle it.
17:59Like the way you handled the guy at the hospital.
18:02I got the results we wanted, didn't I?
18:04You need to take a break.
18:05I'm starting to worry about you.
18:07Go home, get some rest.
18:08How can I get some rest when that lunatic is still out there?
18:11I'm here.
18:12Constable Holden's here.
18:13Everybody's here.
18:14If anything happens, we'll call you.
18:16But you need to go and clear your head, okay?
18:23Look, if you hear anything, I want to be the first...
18:25I'll call you.
18:33I know, I know I'm meant to be switching my brain off,
18:36but I just had another thought.
18:37What if the name Maxine Trude is somehow connected to the dead girl,
18:40Laura McPherson?
18:42Okay, fine, just check it out for me, will you please?
18:46Look, we're getting really close, Tracey, okay?
18:48I can feel it.
18:52Okay, thanks.
19:04And just down the bottom there, next to the cross.
19:10And that's it.
19:11I'll let the officers know that you're ready.
19:15There's, um, one last thing I need to do.
19:19Express my gratitude.
19:21Oh, no, it's not necessary.
19:23Yes, it is.
19:25I can't thank you enough, Maura.
19:27Both for your support with Kim, and the bail money.
19:32That's what friends are for.
19:36It's just all right for you.
19:44She cries her eyes out on his shoulders
19:52Through the tears begins to smile
20:00She said,
20:02Would you lift me up?
20:05Lift me up again
20:08Like a hijacked airplane
20:12Let's go down in your face
20:16And burn the night away
20:23She says, wake me when it's over
20:27I just can't take it anymore
20:39Don't let go of her
20:46Would you mind stopping from there?
20:48Not too much to buy
20:50When you're leaving
20:52Don't look back
20:55Don't look back
21:04Yeah
21:04A romantic afternoon
21:06That's everything he hopes
21:08You're so perfect
21:08But is it enough
21:10To get this special couple back together?
21:13Does it feel alright to you?
21:14And what is he about to do?
21:16Get the emergency trolley in here
21:17To his own grandmother
21:19This wasn't meant to happen
21:20Tomorrow at 7 on Home and Away
