00:00Evan.
00:04I gave her five mils of morphine earlier in the day.
00:07Another dose on top of that would be far too much for an elderly patient
00:10who could easily cause cardiac arrest.
00:11No, no, no, not Charlie, no way.
00:13Well, look, I don't know.
00:15You're trying to get me to admit something that I didn't do, aren't you?
00:18No, Charlie, I'm just saying...
00:20I'm not an idiot.
00:21I know you don't like me hanging around with Kim.
00:24That's why you're making up all these lies.
00:26What?
00:26There's been an accusation made against you
00:28regarding the treatment of Doris McKinnon.
00:30Excuse me?
00:31Well, the complainant is alleging that you gave Mrs McKinnon
00:34a double dose of morphine
00:35and judging by the results of the toxicology report,
00:38it appears there may be a case.
00:41Who do you think you are?
00:42I am out here trying to do something good for the town here
00:44and all you care about is...
00:45Hey, give me that back.
00:46I think you care.
00:48Get off my property, you little insect.
00:52Stupid cow.
00:53Because you rich can do whatever you want.
00:55Why don't you just...
00:58Mum.
00:59Hello, darling.
01:07What are you doing here, Mum?
01:09I've decided this ridiculous feud of ours
01:12has gone on for long enough.
01:13Oh, and I suppose this is all a pure coincidence
01:16that you'd land on my doorstep
01:17at the same time that I come into money.
01:20Sweetheart, that's not fair.
01:22I have no interest in your fortune.
01:24Mum, are you going to read me a story?
01:27I'm coming.
01:29I'm going to go upstairs and read my son a story
01:33and when I get back,
01:34you are going to tell me what the hell you really want from me.
01:45Suspension, are you kidding me?
01:46Well, they warned me last time
01:48that they would have zero tolerance for any mistakes.
01:50Well, except you didn't make any mistakes, Rachel.
01:52Yeah, that's what I have to prove.
01:54Did you tell Olivetti your suspicions about Charlie?
01:57No, only the facts.
01:58I mean, I didn't go into that whole thing
01:59about him wanting me out of the picture
02:01so he can have you all to himself.
02:03I mean, it sounds so ridiculous.
02:04Well, you still believe it, though, don't you?
02:06Yeah, absolutely.
02:08Charlie hears me telling you
02:09that I think he's to blame for the overdose
02:10so he turns on me
02:11because he thinks I'm trying to destroy
02:13your friendship with him.
02:14Then I'll go and make it worse.
02:15Look, it's done. Don't worry about it.
02:17Maybe if I talked to him, he acted like I was sorry.
02:21Don't even think about that.
02:22If anybody at the hospital were to find out,
02:24they would view it as intimidation.
02:27What's Olivetti's take on this?
02:29Well, I think he believes me.
02:31Great, so we know you didn't do it.
02:33Olivetti knows you didn't do it,
02:34but you could still lose your job.
02:36Hey, Rachel, this is ridiculous.
02:38Charlie has gone from being a lonely kid
02:40to causing his grandmother's death.
02:41Also, he can stay closer to us.
02:42Closer to you.
02:45Yeah, well, what's he gonna do next?
03:14It's her fulcrum.
03:17She did this.
03:19She made this happen.
03:27Drink?
03:28No, thanks.
03:29I know when I've had enough.
03:31So are you gonna tell me
03:32why you're trying to crawl your way back
03:34into my life after nine years?
03:35It hasn't been that long.
03:37I talked to you last Christmas.
03:38I don't consider a phone call
03:40every two years
03:40to tell me some old auntie's died
03:42a relationship.
03:44No.
03:46So?
03:48So.
03:50I'm tired of being a witch.
03:51Doesn't it grate on your nerves too?
03:53No, I really enjoy it.
03:56After all,
03:56I learn everything that I know from you.
04:00Well, perhaps it's not too late
04:01to teach you a bit of forgiveness.
04:03Sit down.
04:04Speak to me for once.
04:06Every conversation doesn't have to be a battle.
04:12I know that you think
04:13I have no heart, Amanda,
04:14but I am capable of regret.
04:16For a long time now,
04:18I feel like I've been missing out.
04:19My daughter, my grandson.
04:22I'm lonely.
04:24Life's far too short
04:25to be without your family.
04:27That's very touching.
04:29But if you think that you're gonna audition
04:31for a part in my film,
04:32then you can just forget it.
04:33I didn't even know
04:35you were doing a film
04:36until I arrived here.
04:38You don't believe me.
04:40Why should I?
04:42You've never been honest before.
04:43I've changed.
04:45If you gave me a chance,
04:46you'd see that.
04:47Words are easy, Mum.
04:49Especially for an old theatre queen like you.
04:52At least let me stay tonight.
04:54It's too late to go back to the city.
04:56No.
04:58But I promised Ryan
05:00I'd see him in the morning.
05:01You wouldn't want me to break his heart,
05:02would you?
05:04Breaking children's hearts
05:05has never bothered you before.
05:10Fine.
05:12Alright.
05:13One note.
05:14But I want you going
05:15first thing in the morning.
05:18The spare room's full of boxes
05:19and the bed's not made up
05:20so you'll have to sleep on the couch.
05:22I don't mind.
05:23I'll get you some sheets.
05:43It's me.
05:44I'm here.
05:46I haven't told her.
05:49I am going to tell her
05:50but you don't realise
05:51how difficult things are between us.
05:54I have to pick the right moment.
05:58I will.
05:59I better go.
06:00Bye.
06:13Hi.
06:16This isn't going to work, you know.
06:17What is it?
06:18You trying to come between Rachel and me.
06:20That's not how it is.
06:22Look, I know you've got
06:22some kind of obsession thing going on
06:24but doing this to Rachel
06:25is not going to get you anywhere.
06:27Trust me.
06:28But I do trust you.
06:30That's why I forgive you
06:31for what you said last night
06:33about us not being friends.
06:35What?
06:36I know you wouldn't say anything
06:38to hurt me like that.
06:39Charlie, I want you to listen
06:40to me very carefully.
06:41I meant every word I said last night.
06:44We are not friends
06:44and we never will be.
06:46No, you don't mean that.
06:46Now look,
06:47you are not going to separate
06:48me and Rachel.
06:49Do you understand?
06:51So leave us alone.
06:56Friends don't just stop being friends.
06:59We'll be mates forever.
07:11Big order.
07:12You and Ryan must have worked up
07:13quite an appetite.
07:15Oh, my mother's staying.
07:17Must be nice for you.
07:18Well, she's leaving this morning
07:19which is even nicer.
07:21Actually, while I've got you
07:22there's something
07:22that I really wanted
07:23to talk to you about.
07:24R-O-A?
07:25I was hoping to use
07:26your house as a location
07:27for my film.
07:29It's my joint?
07:30Well, it's perfect
07:31for what I'm after.
07:33I know.
07:34I don't think so.
07:35Sorry.
07:35I've got a copy
07:36of the paperwork on me
07:37including what I pay
07:39per day for the use
07:40of the house.
07:41Just have a read over it
07:42and think about it.
07:43You've got nothing to lose.
07:45Nothing but your
07:46self-respect and dignity.
07:48I beg your pardon?
07:49Sorry?
07:50If you've got something
07:51to say, at least have
07:52the maturity to say it
07:52out loud.
07:53Belle, leave it, please.
07:54I was just wondering,
07:55do you wear a top
07:56in this film?
07:57I'm curious because
07:58I'll never be able
07:59to see it.
07:59I can't get into
08:00X-rated films.
08:01Belle, that is enough.
08:03I don't think you're
08:04in any position
08:05to judge my character.
08:06Wasn't it your boyfriend
08:07who dumped magazines
08:08into my bin
08:09to try and frame me
08:10for murder?
08:11Yeah, that's right.
08:12I know all about it.
08:14Actually, it was me,
08:15not Rick,
08:15who put those magazines
08:16in your bin.
08:17What a pity
08:18they didn't stick you
08:19in jail and leave you
08:20there to rock you.
08:20And what a pity
08:21your mother didn't
08:22use contraception
08:22when she had the chance.
08:30I want to throw a six.
08:34Oh my goodness,
08:35I think that dice
08:36is loaded.
08:37I mean, I'm the champion.
08:39Can we play again?
08:40Tomorrow.
08:41Next time,
08:42I'm going to be red.
08:43I'll still win.
08:44Come on, I'm.
08:45Come and get your
08:45breakfast, please.
08:49Now, don't you go
08:50for getting that
08:51on the couch, mister?
08:54Oh, for a tale of
08:55muesli, lovely, thanks.
08:57That's mine.
08:58I got you an egg
08:59and back and roll.
08:59Good, I did.
09:01Thanks.
09:03You know,
09:03you shouldn't be
09:03making promises to Ryan
09:04that you know
09:05you're not going to keep.
09:05I haven't.
09:07You told him
09:07that you'll play
09:08with him again tomorrow
09:09when you know very well
09:10that you're not going
09:10to be here.
09:12Where will I be?
09:15You know, mum,
09:16of all the little games
09:17that you play,
09:18the deliberate amnesia thing
09:19is probably the one
09:20that I hate the most.
09:21And from one actress
09:22to another,
09:23you've never really
09:23pulled it off.
09:25I meant what I said,
09:26you're not staying.
09:27Thought I could change
09:28your mind.
09:29Surely a few days
09:29won't hurt.
09:30I'll behave myself,
09:31I promise.
09:31I'm not changing my mind.
09:33Amanda, please.
09:35Why, mum?
09:37Give me one good reason
09:38why I should let you stay.
09:43Because I'm dying.
10:02Breast cancer.
10:04I found the lump
10:05eight months ago.
10:06They did a biopsy
10:06and it was malignant.
10:07I've just finished
10:08one round of chemo
10:09and now I'm taking
10:10a break from treatment.
10:12You don't look sick.
10:14Thank you for saying so, darling.
10:16Well, if you're having chemo,
10:17how come you've still
10:18got all your hair?
10:19It depends on the dosage.
10:21I was lucky.
10:22The thing is,
10:23it's in a number
10:24of lymph nodes.
10:26I could be dead
10:27in six months.
10:28It could be six years.
10:30Would you have a way
10:31it falls?
10:32I don't want to die
10:34without making amends
10:35for my mistakes.
10:37I don't want to regret
10:38anything I could have changed.
10:40All I'm asking for
10:41is a bit of time.
10:43What does that mean?
10:45Time to make up
10:46for the mistakes I've made,
10:47the trouble I've caused
10:47in the past.
10:50I don't blame you
10:51if you still want me to go,
10:52but if there's anything
10:53I can do
10:54to end this friction
10:56between us,
10:56I'll gladly do it.
11:00so after all these years,
11:02now suddenly that you're dying,
11:04you want a relationship
11:05with me and my son?
11:07Outside, Ryan.
11:08No.
11:11I realise it's selfish of me.
11:12Yeah, you got that right.
11:15How dare you
11:16just walk in here
11:17after all these years
11:18and throw this
11:19emotional blackmail at me?
11:21I didn't mean to.
11:21You're dying.
11:23What am I supposed
11:24to do with that?
11:27What am I supposed
11:27to do?
11:35Who the hell is he?
11:36He's almost an hour late.
11:39Maybe he's changed his mind
11:40after what I said
11:41on the beach this morning.
11:41Now he's not going to show up.
11:42Yeah, or maybe it's all
11:43just part of his game.
11:44Well, I can't see
11:45how being late
11:46is going to win you
11:46many favours
11:47with Olivetti.
11:48Rachel.
11:49It seems Charlie
11:50has forgotten
11:50about the appointment.
11:51Or deliberately missed it.
11:52Kim.
11:53Well, it just shows
11:53how unreliable the guy is.
11:55Look, I'm sorry.
11:55The waiting's just
11:56starting to get to us.
11:57Don't be.
11:57I can't imagine
11:58how frustrating this must be.
12:00But Olivetti did say
12:01he'd speak to you first now.
12:03He did?
12:04That's great.
12:05Well, good luck.
12:10Sorry, I'm late.
12:11Charlie, they're waiting.
12:12Sorry, I was caught up
12:14with the funeral director.
12:15I didn't realise
12:15how long it would take
12:16to organise grand service.
12:18Well, I should take you through.
12:20They'll be seeing you next.
12:25Look, don't worry.
12:26Charlie's not smart enough
12:27to pull the wool
12:28over Olivetti's eyes.
12:29Okay?
12:29He'll see straight through him.
12:33Always wash
12:34the least dirty things first.
12:35That way the water
12:36stays cleaner longer.
12:37So, glasses before plants.
12:39Exactly.
12:40One day some girl's
12:41going to think the world of you.
12:42All because you know
12:43how to do dishes properly.
12:45Girls?
12:46Yeah.
12:47Give it a few years, sweetie.
12:53I'll finish up here.
12:54Why don't you run out
12:54and play?
13:00It's normal to feel unsure
13:02about how to react
13:03to all of this.
13:04It's a huge shock.
13:05You can stay.
13:06Really?
13:07For a little while, anyway.
13:09Oh, darling, thank you.
13:10You don't have much...
13:11I'll go and sort out
13:11the spare room.
13:20Now, you claim that
13:21Dr Armstrong gave your grandmother
13:23the first dose of morphine
13:24and then came back an hour later
13:25and administered a second dose.
13:27Is that correct?
13:28That's right.
13:29But didn't you think it odd
13:30that Dr Armstrong
13:30should be administering
13:31a second dose
13:32so close to the first?
13:34No.
13:35She's a doctor.
13:36I trust her.
13:37Besides, she was so busy
13:38I didn't have a chance
13:39to say anything.
13:40There was an emergency
13:42she had to attend to
13:43so I just left it.
13:45I had no idea
13:46it was going to kill Gran, though.
13:49Charlie, are you aware
13:50that Dr Armstrong
13:51believes you were the one
13:52who gave your grandmother
13:53the second dose?
13:54No.
13:56But it doesn't surprise me
13:57her saying that.
13:58What, do you mind
13:59explaining why?
14:01It's just...
14:02it's a bit embarrassing.
14:04Go on.
14:06Okay, look.
14:08Rach,
14:09I mean, Dr Armstrong
14:11had a bit of a crush on me
14:13and I...
14:14well, I knocked her back.
14:16Dr Armstrong is very clear
14:18when it comes to the rules
14:19of conduct regarding
14:20patients and their families.
14:21I know.
14:22That's why I couldn't
14:23believe it either.
14:25But she said she was
14:26having some problems
14:27with her boyfriend,
14:28Kim Hyde.
14:31Look, look.
14:32I don't reckon Rachel
14:34meant to hurt Gran,
14:36but it makes sense,
14:37doesn't it?
14:38She's trying to blame me
14:40for this because
14:40she's still holding
14:41a grudge.
14:43Has Dr Armstrong
14:43approached you
14:44since the death
14:45of your grandmother?
14:46No.
14:47But then she's got Kim
14:48back on her side now,
14:49hasn't she?
14:50What do you mean?
14:51Well, it's just...
14:54It doesn't matter.
14:55It's in your interest
14:56to give us
14:57any relevant information.
14:59Yeah.
15:00But it's pointless.
15:02Well, let us be
15:03the judge of that.
15:05Okay, look.
15:07Kim came up to me
15:08on the beach
15:09this morning.
15:10He said that he was
15:11going to lie
15:11to protect Rachel.
15:13And so there'd be
15:14no point in me
15:15telling the truth
15:16because there's no way
15:17I'd be able to prove it.
15:19Charlie,
15:20do you realise
15:21the gravity
15:22of these allegations?
15:23I do.
15:25I don't want to cause
15:26any trouble
15:27for Dr Armstrong.
15:29I'm having a hard
15:30enough time dealing
15:30with Gran's passing
15:32without having her
15:33pointing the finger
15:34at me.
15:36But she made
15:37this mistake.
15:40And she's got
15:41to pay for it.
15:46Stay on set.
15:47It's a night.
15:52Hey.
15:52Is, um,
15:53your mum home?
15:54Are you?
16:03Your bedroom's
16:03all made up.
16:04I think this'll
16:05look great here.
16:06What do you think?
16:08Mum, mum,
16:09there's a girl outside.
16:18What now?
16:25What are you doing
16:25on my property?
16:27I'm returning
16:27the papers you gave
16:28to Irene.
16:31I don't see
16:32any signatures on here.
16:33Take it back to her
16:34and tell her
16:35I'll double the offer.
16:36She's not interested.
16:37What don't you
16:37understand about that?
16:39Since when do you
16:40speak for Irene?
16:41Look, she doesn't
16:41want your money
16:42and she doesn't
16:42want to be a part
16:43of your stupid film.
16:44In fact, the last
16:45thing she needs
16:45right now is a
16:45cow like you
16:46hassling off.
16:47What is your problem?
16:48Maybe I don't
16:48like the way
16:49you swan around
16:49town thinking
16:50you can buy
16:50whatever and
16:51whoever with
16:51your money.
16:52And you care
16:52because...
16:53Because I don't
16:53like you
16:54and I don't
16:55trust you.
16:56And Irene's
16:57been through
16:57enough bad
16:57stuff lately
16:58she doesn't
16:58need you
16:58giving her
16:59a hard time
16:59as well.
17:00I am not
17:00here to give
17:01Irene a hard
17:02time.
17:02This is a
17:03business deal
17:03and nothing
17:04wrong.
17:04I'm sure
17:04the hunters
17:05would agree
17:05too because
17:05that is how
17:06you got your
17:07money in the
17:07first place,
17:08right?
17:08By ripping
17:08them off.
17:09How I got
17:10my money
17:15was to scare
17:16me.
17:17If anything
17:18you do to me
17:18will come back
17:19and slap you
17:19in the face
17:20twice as hard.
17:22Trust me.
17:23We'll see
17:23about that.
17:31If that little
17:32brat comes to
17:32me one more
17:33time, she
17:34will be so
17:35sorry.
17:39So you're
17:39absolutely
17:40certain you
17:41only administered
17:41one five mil
17:42dose of morphine?
17:43One dose and
17:44one dose only
17:45as the patient
17:45notes confirm.
17:46Charlie claims
17:47he witnessed
17:47you giving
17:48his grandmother
17:48the second
17:49dose.
17:50He's lying.
17:51Can you explain
17:52why Charlie
17:53would make up
17:53a story like
17:54that?
17:55On the
17:55morning of
17:56Doris' death
17:57Charlie and
17:58his grandmother
17:58were in a
17:59highly anxious
17:59state.
18:00They'd been
18:00arguing.
18:01Doris wanted
18:01to go home
18:02early and
18:02Charlie was
18:03not keen
18:03on the idea.
18:04Charlie's
18:05been caring
18:05for his
18:05grandmother
18:06for years.
18:06Why wouldn't
18:07he want
18:07her to
18:07return home?
18:09When Doris
18:09was first
18:10admitted to
18:10hospital,
18:11I offered
18:12Charlie some
18:13extra support
18:13and we
18:14became
18:15friendly and
18:17as a result
18:17he formed an
18:18inappropriate
18:19attachment to
18:20my partner
18:20Kim Hyde.
18:22Inappropriate
18:23how?
18:23Well Charlie
18:24always lived a
18:24very secluded
18:25life.
18:26He never had
18:27many friends
18:27friends and
18:29and when he
18:29met Kim
18:31he was quite
18:32taken with
18:32him and
18:34in the weeks
18:34that followed
18:35he started
18:35showing classic
18:36intimacy seeking
18:37behaviour such
18:38as stalking.
18:39Now this was
18:40all directed at
18:40Kim not at
18:41me and Kim
18:43can verify
18:43everything that
18:44I'm saying
18:44here today.
18:46Charlie
18:46McKinnon
18:46predicted that
18:47you'll be
18:48calling on
18:48Kim to
18:49defend you.
18:50He also
18:50told us that
18:51Kim intimidated
18:52him on the
18:53beach this
18:53morning claiming
18:54that he would
18:55lie to this
18:55panel.
18:56I'm sorry
18:57but to be
18:57blunt Charlie
18:58McKinnon's
18:59claims are
18:59outrageous.
19:00But you're
19:01accusing Mr
19:02McKinnon of
19:03willfully causing
19:04the death of
19:04his grandmother
19:05that's a very
19:05serious claim
19:06too.
19:07Yes I believe
19:08that it was an
19:08accident an
19:10attempt to keep
19:10her in hospital
19:11for longer that
19:11went horribly
19:12wrong.
19:13Now I have
19:14no doubt that
19:14Charlie's grief
19:15for his
19:15grandmother is
19:16genuine but
19:17his version of
19:17the events are
19:18completely
19:18untruthful.
19:20I am in a
19:21committed
19:21relationship and
19:22I love my
19:23job.
19:24Why would I
19:24risk everything
19:25by hitting on
19:26a disturbed
19:26relative of
19:27a patient?
19:28It makes no
19:28sense.
19:29Dr Armstrong it's
19:30not long ago that
19:31you sat in this
19:32very room and
19:32told us you'll
19:33be willing to
19:33throw away your
19:34career for an
19:35inappropriate
19:36relationship with
19:36a former patient.
19:39I know how
19:40this looks but I
19:42swear to you that
19:43is not the case
19:44this time.
19:45Alright Dr
19:46Armstrong well
19:47thank you for
19:48speaking with us
19:48we'll take on
19:49board everything
19:49you've told us
19:50today but I
19:51want you to
19:52understand that
19:52given the
19:53seriousness of
19:54Charlie's claims
19:54and your track
19:56record it's not
19:57looking good.
20:10To turn the story
20:12back on me like
20:12that to so
20:13calculatedly try to
20:15destroy me.
20:15I just can't
20:16believe the panel
20:16fell for his lies.
20:17Well I can.
20:18What Charlie lacks
20:19in social skills
20:20he makes up for
20:21in cunning.
20:21He's a lot
20:22cleverer than he
20:23makes out and
20:23he's very
20:24determined.
20:25Yeah well he
20:25can't be stupid
20:25enough to try
20:26anything else.
20:27I wouldn't be so
20:28sure about that.
20:29This is not over
20:30yet.
20:48He's started.
20:49I love it.
