00:01My baby's safe because of you.
00:03And when Robbie gets back, he's going to say things too.
00:06I'm looking forward to that.
00:08Yeah, me too.
00:09What the hell were you thinking sending them up there like that?
00:12Were you so keen to prove that you could be a super doctor
00:15that you didn't even think about the danger, did you?
00:17I hope you can find a way to live with yourself.
00:20Because thanks to you, six people have lost their lives.
00:24I was too busy running around at the hospital
00:26wanting everyone to think that I had everything under control
00:28that I was on top of everything.
00:31And look what happened.
00:32Rach, you were just doing it, Joel.
00:33No, I went too far.
00:35And now six people are dead because of me.
00:46No one's coming for us, are they?
01:05It's a miracle, you know.
01:08What's that?
01:09The fact that we're even sitting here.
01:11We all got out okay.
01:14Bell's got a busted arm.
01:16Yeah, but we both know it could have been a lot worse.
01:19Yeah, I guess we had to get lucky at some stage, huh?
01:27Are you thinking about Rachel?
01:30Is it that obvious?
01:31She'll be okay.
01:33We've been missing for days, kid.
01:35How could they not be thinking the worst?
01:36You can't let it get to you.
01:38No, but they must be going crazy.
01:40They're with the fire, Peter, Elaine.
01:43They'll probably scale back their search by now.
01:45You don't know that.
01:46Come on, kid.
01:47I'll be lucky if they haven't called off the search altogether.
01:50You can't think like that.
01:53We're alive and we've got a chance to get out of here.
01:55And right now that is the only thing that matters.
01:57Right?
02:01Right.
02:12Hello, who's there?
02:14It's me.
02:21Rachel, what are you doing?
02:23I don't know.
02:23It just slips out of my house.
02:24It's three o'clock in the morning.
02:26You should be in the winter.
02:28Rachel, you can't stay awake forever.
02:29No, I'm all right.
02:31No, you're not.
02:31You need a good night's sleep.
02:33No, no.
02:34I can't.
02:35I can't even close my eyes.
02:37Every time I do, I just see them.
02:39I see Kim and Martha and Robbie.
02:43Rachel, don't do this to you.
02:45No, no, no.
02:46Driving up to the city wasn't good enough.
02:48No, I had to make a big deal and get them a helicopter.
02:51This isn't helping.
02:52No.
02:53It's not helping them.
02:53It's definitely not helping you.
02:55Look, I said I'm all right.
02:56Rachel, you let me clean.
02:57No, no, no.
02:57I want to do it.
02:58Let me clean.
02:59Oh, fine, then.
03:12You know we belong together
03:16You and I forever and ever
03:20No matter where you are
03:25You're my guiding star
03:28You're my guiding star
03:31Hold me in your arms
03:33Don't let me go
03:35I want to stay forever
03:38Close our reach stay
03:40Home and away
03:49Right.
03:50We're good to go, darling.
03:52Got everything?
03:53Yeah.
03:54I'll see you.
03:56Take it easy
03:57and don't let her lift her finger.
03:59Don't you worry about her.
04:00You just get better yourself, matey.
04:05Go on.
04:05I'll talk to you later.
04:07Okay.
04:08See you.
04:09See you.
04:10See you.
04:23See you, babe.
04:27Rachel, why don't you go to bed?
04:30What's working with the room spinning around?
04:32No, you can go to sleep.
04:33You'll probably feel a whole lot better if you do.
04:35Well, I wouldn't bet on it.
04:37Rachel, what you need to stop.
04:39No, what I need is a coffee.
04:45G'day.
04:45Look, I don't mean to barge in.
04:48I just wanted to apologise for what I said yesterday.
04:53The accident wasn't your fault
04:55and I never should have blown a mistake like that.
04:57No, no.
04:58I deserved it.
04:59No, you didn't?
05:01Alf, they were all dead because of me.
05:03You had every right to say what you did.
05:05No, I didn't.
05:06And I didn't mean it.
05:07It was just one of those spur-of-the-moment things.
05:12But I don't want you blaming yourself.
05:14I really appreciate you coming around,
05:15but you had absolutely nothing to apologise for.
05:22Rachel is strong, Kim.
05:23I'm not saying this is going to be easy,
05:25but she will get through it.
05:26You didn't see her before we left, kid.
05:28She's already lost her mum.
05:30And now with this on top of it...
05:33She's got a lot of good people around her.
05:35You're just going to have to trust her.
05:38Can we have something to eat or what?
05:41Guys, do you all want something?
05:44What's this?
05:45Breakfast.
05:46You're kidding.
05:47I'm starving.
05:48We're all hungry, Belle.
05:49Yeah, and we don't need you whining about it.
05:51I wasn't talking to you.
05:52I was talking to her.
05:53Why doesn't everyone just calm down?
05:55Belle, we've got a few bits and pieces left.
05:57It's not much, and we need to make it last.
06:00And what happens when the food runs out?
06:05I'm going to check on the water.
06:22Hey, are you all right?
06:25Yeah, I'm okay.
06:25I actually got some sleep last night.
06:28Well, that makes two of us.
06:31I never thought I'd say it, but I actually wish I could stop thinking about Jack.
06:36I know what you mean.
06:37If I keep thinking about Tash or the baby one more time, my head's going to explode.
06:41Here we are in the middle of no man's land, when the whole time they've got to be thinking we're
06:46dead.
06:47And then I think about Jack.
06:50He's already so down about the wedding and the transplant.
06:54I don't know how much more he can take.
07:00Hey.
07:01Hey, Phil.
07:03Not good, eh?
07:06Look, Jack, I know it doesn't seem like it, mate, but it's going to get better, you know.
07:11You've just got to try to get through every day the best way you can.
07:16And I want you to know that we are all here for you if you need us.
07:21Me and Luke, Beth, Maddie, the whole lot of us, mate, okay?
07:28Listen, Jack.
07:31I know what you're going through, mate.
07:33When I lost your mum, it was like...
07:35Excuse me?
07:36Look, I'm not trying to take anything away from what you're going through, believe me.
07:39I'm just trying to say that a lot of the things that you're feeling right now, I've actually felt.
07:45So, if you want to talk about them...
07:47You don't know what I'm feeling.
07:48Jack, I...
07:49No, Dad, you don't.
07:51Okay, you had ten years with mum.
07:54I didn't even get ten days with my wife, so I could do with a little less of the pep
07:57talk, okay?
08:01Hey, Macca.
08:03They're, uh, sending me home today.
08:05I wanted to let you know if there's anything you need, just call.
08:08Good on you, thanks, mate.
08:09I mean, anything, mate.
08:11I know Martha won't be making sure you're okay.
08:12What did you say?
08:13I mean, it'd make her feel better.
08:15Don't ever speak for my wife.
08:16I just want to help.
08:17You come in here playing the good brother like nothing happened.
08:20You don't think that I know that you made a life hell for the last week?
08:24I'm really sorry, I'm not trying to...
08:25You've got no right.
08:26Jack.
08:26Martha is gone.
08:28It should have been him.
08:29It should have been you.
08:32Get out, Ted.
08:34Just get out.
08:51Hello.
08:52Yep, speaking.
08:56What?
08:58When?
09:02Jack.
09:03Jackie.
09:06Jack.
09:07Where are you, mate?
09:08Jackie.
09:17Self, Stuart.
09:18Yeah, it's me.
09:19He's not here.
09:19How'd you go?
09:20No luck.
09:21And I just went up to the point.
09:22There's no sign of him there.
09:23No either.
09:23I can't believe this.
09:26Well, I tell you, Alf, we've got to do this fast, okay?
09:28Because the anti-rejection meds is on.
09:30We've got to be taking exactly the right time.
09:32I'll call more people in if we have to.
09:34In the meantime, I'm going down to the beach to start there.
09:36Yeah, okay.
09:37Good on you.
09:37Thanks, mate.
09:38It's a...
09:40No, Brett, I'm not saying...
09:42No, I can...
09:43I don't need your help.
09:45Because I can do it on my own.
09:47Listen, I was the one who was here for her,
09:48so I'll deal with the funeral arrangements when I'm ready to.
10:00Hey, do you want to calm down?
10:02Do you want to butt out?
10:03We should be happy.
10:03There's funny things around the house.
10:06Hey, you fancy some visitors?
10:08Yeah, of course we do.
10:08Come in.
10:09How are you?
10:10I'm okay.
10:11I just didn't really feel like doing it anymore.
10:13See?
10:14Sick of me already?
10:15No.
10:16So I'll just come and see how Rachel is and see how you're going.
10:20Um, it's really sweet of you.
10:22Um, to be honest, I really don't feel like seeing anybody at the moment, so...
10:26But that's okay, because I do.
10:27So, um, how about I make us a cup of tea and we can sit down and just have a
10:31chat?
10:32No, it's okay.
10:32You know, I might just get going.
10:34Tash, honestly, it's fine.
10:35Please.
10:35I'm more tired than I thought.
10:37It's okay.
10:39Call you later.
10:44Robbie, you've really got to try and keep this cleaner.
10:47If this burn gets infected out here, there's not much we can do for it.
10:49Oh, next time I'll remember to pack my soap.
10:52How's my leg?
10:53It's looking a bit oozy.
10:54What about my arm?
10:55It's killing me.
10:57Go on before Princess Belle starts having another one of the tantrums.
11:05Hit.
11:07One.
11:07I told you before, we don't have much.
11:09You were talking about muesli bars.
11:10I was talking about everything.
11:12But my arm is broken.
11:13Yeah, well, so is my wrist.
11:15And Robbie has a massive cut on his leg.
11:17But do you hear us complaining?
11:18Why don't you just stay out of it?
11:19Hey, why don't you just grow up?
11:21The right you lot are going, even if they do find us out here, they'll damn well leave us here.
11:24They're never going to find us.
11:25Don't say that.
11:26Well, it's true.
11:27I mean, how much longer do we have to stand around here doing nothing?
11:29We're not doing nothing.
11:30We're doing what we're meant to do, which is stay with the wreckage.
11:32Because that's really been working for us so far.
11:36We should go and look for help.
11:37Maybe she's right.
11:38Are you serious?
11:39I would have thought that with all your army training, you'd agree that we stay put.
11:43Yeah, well, not if it means starving or dropping off from set to senior.
11:47Look, the fact is they might never find us out here.
11:50It's been over a week already, and that leads me to think they're not even looking in the right area.
11:55So I reckon it's time we started helping ourselves.
11:57No, it's a mistake.
11:58Who says you have to come?
11:59No one says we have to stick together.
12:01Yes, of course we do, Belle.
12:03Look, spinning up is not an option, and I still say that we stay where we are.
12:06Yeah, so do I.
12:10Well, I don't know if your friends agree with you.
12:13So it looks like we're going to have to talk about it, doesn't it?
12:25Jack!
12:27Jack!
12:35Jack, are you all right, mate?
12:39You gave us a real scare leaving the hospital like that.
12:43I suppose you had your reasons, but the thing is, I can't leave you out here.
12:50I know you probably want to be on your path, but if we don't get you back to the hospital,
12:54you could get real crook.
12:57Come on, mate, look, whatever it is, we can sort it out.
13:02I want to go home.
13:03Well, of course you do.
13:04You know, it won't be too much longer before you can, but right now, we need to get you back.
13:10Back to the hospital.
13:13I'm going home.
13:25Come on, mate.
13:27What does it make you down to the hospital, eh?
13:29You can go.
13:32I don't know that that's such a good idea.
13:35I said you can go.
13:47He's inside.
13:48I couldn't get him to come down to the hospital with me.
13:51That's fine.
13:51Thanks for the call, mate.
13:52Good luck.
13:58Hey.
14:01You can't stay here, Jack.
14:03Yes, I can.
14:04I live here.
14:07Come on, you know what I mean.
14:08You need to be back in the hospital.
14:09I'm not going.
14:14Jack, I know you're hurting, mate, and I'm sorry about not understanding this morning.
14:19I really am, but that medication you're on has got to be taken at the right time, or your body's
14:24going to reject that liver.
14:25It's as simple as that.
14:26Whatever happens, happens.
14:28Jack.
14:30I'm not going, okay?
14:31I'm staying here.
14:39Jack, I'm trying to understand this.
14:41Really, I am.
14:41But I just don't get it.
14:43You don't have to.
14:43This is not a game.
14:45This is life and death.
14:46Do you understand that?
14:46Yes.
14:47So, what are you doing?
14:49I told you.
14:50I need to feel close to her.
14:52And this space, these things, they're all I have left.
14:57You talk like you've given up.
14:59I haven't you.
15:00Well, granted, they're running out of time.
15:01I'm running out of time, Dad.
15:02Come on.
15:03It's been over a week.
15:06And like Rachel said, the chances of them to even survive in a crash in the first place aren't great.
15:10Hey, mate, bigger miracles have happened, okay?
15:12Look at you, for example.
15:13I mean, the chances of finding you a compatible donor are next to nil.
15:16Oh, so now you're going to tell me that I owe it to Peter not to block.
15:19Jack, you owe it to you.
15:22And to your wife.
15:23I have tried to stay strong, Dad.
15:26I've hoped and I have prayed for every single moment of every day.
15:29But there's only so long that you can keep it going.
15:32Oh, you know what?
15:33I don't accept that.
15:35And I can tell you right now, mate, Martha wouldn't have accepted it either.
15:38She would have dragged you back to that hospital by now if she was here.
15:40And that's exactly what I'm going to do if you don't wake up to yourself.
15:43I mean, for God's sake, Jack.
15:45I've told you what I'm doing, okay?
15:46If you don't like it, just get out.
15:49Jack, Jack, please, I'm your father, okay?
15:51And if you think that I'm going to just stand here and watch you die.
15:54Just go, Dad, just go.
16:03And what do you think the searchers are going to be looking for?
16:06Well, like I said before, they could be searching in completely the wrong area.
16:10The wreckage, that's what?
16:11Kim's right.
16:11They'll probably be searching for us by air.
16:13This is our best chance of being spotted.
16:15Don't you get it?
16:15No one is going to spot us by air because no one is searching for us.
16:18And the longer we stay here, the weaker we get, the harder it is for us to go when we
16:22do decide to actually go.
16:24Hey, and you mean if we decide to go?
16:26No, I mean when.
16:28It's the smart thing to do.
16:30Even you're going to get that eventually.
16:32And what is that supposed to mean?
16:33Listen, kid, I reckon I've got a bit more experience in these situations than you.
16:37Yeah, well, you could have fooled me.
16:38Oh, stop it.
16:39Just stop it.
16:40How is this meant to help?
16:42Aren't we meant to be in this together?
16:44Okay.
16:45There's a way to solve this.
16:47We vote.
16:48Majority rules.
16:50So whoever thinks we should leave, put up your hand.
17:00We've been here for days and nothing's changed.
17:03So maybe the best thing is to try something different.
17:12I'm sorry, but I want to go home.
17:16Okay, let's get our gear together and get going.
17:24Do you want one?
17:26No, and I don't think you should be having one either.
17:28Rachel, it's the middle of the afternoon.
17:30What's going on?
17:31Well, it sounds like you're giving me another lecture.
17:33Do you think I want to have to say something?
17:35I don't know.
17:35You seem to be making a habit of it.
17:37Rachel, I'm worried about you.
17:38Oh, don't be.
17:39Well, how can I not be?
17:40I don't think you're dealing with this situation very well.
17:43How should I be dealing with it?
17:44I don't know.
17:44Yeah, that's right.
17:45You don't know.
17:46Last time I checked, I was the only one between us with a degree in psychiatry.
17:49Well, it's obviously not doing you much good, though, is it?
17:51Oh, so is that in your professional opinion, is it, doctor?
17:54Oh, what is it?
17:55What am I doing?
17:56Is it transference, projection, disassociation?
17:59You know what I think?
18:00I would be dealing with this a whole lot better if I had a little bit of support and understanding
18:05from you.
18:06I am supporting you.
18:07Now, why does it feel like you are?
18:08Because you're angry.
18:09Yeah, and why shouldn't I be angry?
18:11Every time you've needed me, I've been there for you.
18:14And the one time that I need something back from you, you're too busy judging me and telling me what
18:18to do.
18:18I'm sorry if it sounds like that, but...
18:23Do you think Rachel's going to be okay?
18:26Yeah, love, I do.
18:27I just think she needs a little bit of time.
18:32What about you?
18:34Yeah, I'm okay.
18:38I've got to be.
18:39Him, isn't I?
18:45Hello, Tony.
18:46How's Jack?
18:50Hello, Tony.
19:03How's Jack?
19:20How's Jack?
19:23How's Jack?
19:28Hi.
19:39Hey, I can finish that.
19:41Aren't you overqualified, Doctor?
19:45Leah, I'm so sorry.
19:47You've had a line before.
19:49Yeah, I know.
19:51I know that you've been there for me.
19:53But just because I'm telling you things that you don't want to hear
19:56does not mean that I'm not there for you.
19:57I know that, I know.
20:01I should never have spoken to you like that.
20:04You're a really good friend.
20:08And I am exhausted.
20:11I need to sleep.
20:14And that's exactly what I'm going to do
20:16after you know how sorry I am.
20:20Do you want to make your catamaran tea?
20:21No, no, no, no.
20:22You've helped me so much.
20:24Why don't you go and sit down and put your feet up
20:27and just relax.
20:30You don't have to worry about me anymore.
20:34Okay.
20:37I don't know.
21:09They've been missing for over a week.
21:11You've given up, haven't you?
21:12I know.
