00:01Oh, you just had a bit of a wobble before, like you were dizzy, maybe.
00:05It's been happening a bit lately.
00:07I just don't want to make a big deal out of it, okay?
00:10Well, what about Brad?
00:12Please don't say anything.
00:15I want to leave Summer Bay.
00:23I understand that you're feeling pressured by this,
00:25but the last thing you should do is run away.
00:26Well, I'm not running away.
00:28Well, that's what it sounds like.
00:29Kim, if you don't stay and fight, people will assume that the accusations are true.
00:32Rachel, they're assuming it anyway.
00:35Look, we've been through this.
00:36The locals are always going to give me attitude.
00:38People around here, they don't forget stuff like that.
00:40They will when they know that you didn't do it.
00:41Hey, it'll be too late by then.
00:43Look, even if I can prove that Tara is lying, it won't matter.
00:45This thing will stick.
00:47And besides, if we move to the city, I'll be closer to Dad
00:50and it will make it easier for me to support him through the trial.
00:54Rachel, I need this, right?
00:55This is something I've got to do.
00:56Well, that's just the thing.
00:58We're supposed to be getting married,
00:59but to me it sounds like you're going whether I'm coming or not.
01:01Well, I don't mean it to sound like that, okay?
01:03Of course I want you to come with me.
01:04I can't do this without you.
01:07So what happens if I don't want to go?
01:09Oh, Rachel, I don't want to make this into an ultimatum.
01:11This is just something I feel strongly about
01:13and I was hoping you'd support me through it.
01:29Good morning.
01:30Hey, Baba.
01:31You finished your run already?
01:33Yeah, yeah, I got up early.
01:35I'm going to sleep last night.
01:37I'm not surprised.
01:38Kim must be going through hell at the moment.
01:40Yeah, yeah.
01:41It's pretty bad.
01:48Rachel, what's wrong?
01:55The truth is, it's been a tough few days.
01:57I'm so sorry.
01:58I should have called you.
01:59Oh, don't be silly.
02:00You're not responsible for looking after me.
02:02Yeah, I know.
02:03But is there anything I can do in the washing or the cleaning?
02:07I give a great foot massage.
02:09No, that's all right.
02:10Brad has all of that under control.
02:13Now, there was one thing I was going to ask you.
02:15Oh, go for it.
02:17As much as I like to think of myself as being big and brave,
02:20it's not something that I really want to do on my own.
02:22I hope you don't mind.
02:23Try me.
02:24I made an appointment to see my specialist at the hospital
02:27and I was hoping that you might keep me company.
02:31Don't feel like you have to say yes and I'm just being a wuss.
02:33No, no, no.
02:34Of course I'll go with you.
02:36But shouldn't you take Brad?
02:38No, I really want to try and spare him for a little bit longer.
02:43I'm sorry for dumping all of this on you, Sal.
02:44I know it puts you in an awkward position with him.
02:46Oh, no, don't, don't be silly.
02:48That's the last thing you need to be worrying about.
02:53I should never have got this far.
02:55It's as if the whole town has condemned him
02:57without hearing the full story.
02:58And so he wants out.
03:00It sounds reasonable to me.
03:02Yeah, I can understand his reasons for wanting to go.
03:06But you're worried about finding work in the city?
03:09No, it's not that.
03:10I can get a transfer easy enough.
03:12So what is it then?
03:13I know you guys love it here,
03:15but if Kim's being treated like a leper...
03:18I just...
03:19I think he's made this decision too quickly.
03:23I'm worried about you and Emily.
03:25Us?
03:26Why?
03:27You came here to be near me.
03:29With Emily so sick, you're going to need my support.
03:31Well, if that's all that's stopping you from going.
03:33I want to be there for you.
03:35You're really important to me.
03:36And you're important to us.
03:37When I need you, I'll call.
03:40It's not as simple if we're not neighbours.
03:42It's not like I can just drop in on the way home from work.
03:45Especially when Emily starts to get worse.
03:47Sure, but that's way down the track.
03:49Right now, Kim needs you.
03:50And you should be with him.
03:53The idea of being without him is killing me.
03:58There's your decision then.
04:01I think.
04:02Definitely.
04:04You and Kim do what you need to do.
04:06Don't worry about Emily and I.
04:08From times of tough, you need to be with the person that you love.
04:11I know that much.
04:22It's all well and good, Amanda not wanting Kim around the place, but I could do with a hand while
04:26I'm getting other ropes.
04:28Yeah.
04:29I just don't understand how Kim kept up with the paperwork and the maintenance while the place is flat-out
04:33training clients, you know?
04:35Well, I can come give you a hand later on if you want.
04:37Yeah?
04:38Well, that'd be awesome, mate. As long as you can spare the time.
04:40Yeah, it's cool.
04:42You know, we'll get you to do some of that maintenance stuff with it.
04:45Are you alright?
04:47I'm fine.
04:49Come on, Luke.
04:50You've been wearing that glum face for a couple of days now. What's going on?
04:53Nothing.
04:54I would have thought the fact that Matilda's about to walk through that door over there to have you jumping
04:57for joy.
04:59Seriously, mate. Is there something I should know about?
05:02Um.
05:03We're home!
05:04Hey!
05:05Look at you!
05:07Do you know anything you spent the last couple of weeks at a five-star resort?
05:10Thanks.
05:10Hey, Luke.
05:12Give us those, love.
05:14Well, I'll go put the kettle on.
05:15Yeah, good idea.
05:16I can't believe how well you look.
05:18I feel really great.
05:19It's kind of weird being out of the place, though. I was just getting used to it.
05:22What just did this?
05:25I'll make it up to you, I promise.
05:26And once we're in the city, we'll be able to start fresh.
05:29Yeah, including all our wedding plans.
05:30Right, I'm sorry. I don't wish none of this was happening either.
05:34No, but thanks for sticking by me.
05:37I wouldn't have done anything else, you know.
05:39Now, I've spoken to Warwick, and she said, um, she's going to try and change my bail conditions
05:43so I can report in the city instead.
05:46Wow.
05:47You really got the ball rolling already.
05:49Well, I don't want to waste any time. I'd like to leave today if I can.
05:52Today?
05:53Yeah, if I get the green light from Warwick.
05:55But I've got to organise a transfer and give notice?
05:57Yeah, I know.
05:58I was thinking I could go down first, and then you could follow when you're ready.
06:03You really want to get out of town that badly?
06:06Well, I've made the decision.
06:08You know, I don't want to drag it out.
06:10What do you reckon?
06:14As long as you're sure this is the right move.
06:17Yeah, I am.
06:17You know, getting out of here is the only way I'm going to survive this.
06:27You sure you don't want another drink?
06:29No, thanks.
06:29What about a bickie? I made them this morning. I'll get them.
06:31Mum, stop.
06:32If I'm hungry, I know where the fridge is.
06:35Oh.
06:37I'm sorry. I'm just so pleased to have you home.
06:39Bette! Where are the draggy-dacks?
06:41Which ones?
06:42Oh, the ones I want to wear.
06:43Oh, I'd better go and sort out the helpless mail.
06:46I have so missed not having another girl in the house.
06:48And right in the drawer.
06:53So, how's school been? Any goss?
06:55I wouldn't know.
06:57I'm missing Cassie like crazy. I might go around there later if you're interested.
07:01Yeah, I'm not.
07:06Luke, is there a problem here? Are you angry with me?
07:09What do you think?
07:11Luke, I don't understand.
07:13When were you planning on telling me about you and Dean?
07:17And don't bother trying to deny it.
07:19I saw you guys kissing when I went to visit.
07:23Luke, I'm so sorry. I know how it must look, but I didn't plan it.
07:27And you think that makes it better, do you?
07:28No, but I didn't want to hurt you.
07:31I didn't mean to get involved with Dean.
07:32It just sort of happened.
07:34So that's it?
07:35That's all you've got to say about it?
07:37Please don't hate me. I'd really like for us to be friends.
07:40Hey Luke, if you're still up for giving me a hand, mate, we're going to get cracking.
07:45Bye, you two.
07:46Bye.
07:48See ya.
08:01It's a good drying day out there.
08:03Bit windy for a stroll on the beach, though.
08:05I bet you miss those.
08:06Yeah.
08:08Are you upset with me for not telling you about Robbie sooner?
08:12Sorry?
08:13You seem upset.
08:15Did I dump the news about the court case on you the wrong way, or...?
08:18Oh, no, no, no, it's not that.
08:20Well, what is it then?
08:25Mum, if I tell you something, will you promise not to be disappointed in me?
08:29Of course.
08:32Um, Lucas is really upset because he found out that Dean and I are seeing each other.
08:39You are?
08:41I thought you weren't supposed to be involved with anyone else in the program.
08:45That's the theory, but it actually made us really close.
08:50Closer than I've been to anyone.
08:52And I'm a different person now, Mum.
08:56You know, I want to move forward, not back.
08:58And Dean, he really understands who I am now.
09:01And Lucas doesn't?
09:03Not as much.
09:05But the worst thing is, is that Lucas found out because he saw Dean and I kissing.
09:11Which must have hurt pretty bad.
09:12Oh.
09:15Oh, well, that would have explained the awkwardness that I noticed earlier.
09:19Hmm.
09:21But you and Luke aren't together.
09:23Surely he would have expected this at some point.
09:25Except before I left, I was really trying to get back together with him.
09:29I thought that if I fixed things with him, I would solve my other problems.
09:34So Luke probably didn't expect this at all.
09:36Well, I feel sorry for Luke.
09:39But if you feel strongly about this Dean fellow, then I guess you should follow that.
09:44I do feel strongly.
09:46But at the same time, I don't want to hurt Luke either.
09:49Well, unfortunately, sometimes when you hurt someone, you have to take responsibility for it.
09:54Look, I'm sure he's going to get over this eventually.
09:59I hope so.
10:02I hope you're not letting these mongrels drive you out of town.
10:05Yeah, trust me, darling.
10:06No one cares what a couple of dopey gossip mongers think.
10:09No, it's not just that.
10:10I also want to be near Dad right now.
10:12Yeah, I guess that's understandable.
10:13But do you have to take Rachel and we're not going to miss her?
10:15No, don't worry.
10:16She'll be around for another week or so, yeah.
10:18Hey, listen, mate.
10:19I know it's not the best time for you and Emily.
10:21Oh, don't you worry about us.
10:22You just do what's best for you.
10:23Yeah, as long as you make sure you come back when it's all over.
10:25Well, yes, absolutely.
10:28Morag, how did you go?
10:29Any luck changing the bail conditions?
10:30Yes, it all went very smoothly.
10:32And as it happens, it might not even be necessary.
10:34What do you mean?
10:35Well, I managed to track down a copy of that interesting little file we couldn't get our hands on.
10:40Tara's police record.
10:41Exactly.
10:42Right, and what's in it?
10:43I don't know.
10:43I haven't read it yet.
10:44It's been couriered as we speak.
10:46But with any luck, it'll contain something that will help fight your cause.
10:49Do you think she might have done something like this before?
10:51No, it's best not to speculate.
10:52Just keep your fingers crossed that we'll chip her up with whatever's in it.
11:01You have a seat.
11:03I'll put the kettle on.
11:05I thought that I was prepared to hear that.
11:08The specialist did say that there's a chance your platelets could bounce back up.
11:13They always say that.
11:15They don't want to leave you without hope.
11:23I promised myself that I'd accept each phase as it came along, but it's much harder than I thought.
11:30It'd be different if I had enough time, but it's all happening so quickly.
11:33I'm nowhere near ready to let go.
11:35Look, I don't think there is such a thing as enough time.
11:39Feeling like this is just part of it.
11:43Thank God you were there.
11:48Thank God Brad wasn't.
11:49I think that he would have lost it if you'd heard what that specialist had said.
11:52You are going to tell him, though.
11:56No.
11:58I can't.
11:59Look, I think that if you're finding this hard to accept,
12:02how do you think Brad's going to cope when he's had no warning?
12:08Oh.
12:09Oh, family.
12:10Hang on.
12:20I'm sorry, Dad.
12:21Don't be sorry.
12:24So if we can prove that Tara has accused some other guy of this kind of thing,
12:27is that going to hold up in court?
12:28No, our previous record's not admissible.
12:30That's why I'm hoping to stop this stupid charade before it even gets to court.
12:34Please let this be it, Ben.
12:36You know, if this gets sorted out quickly, we might not have to leave town after all.
12:40I hate to be the voice of doom, but what makes you so sure there's going to be anything useful
12:44in a police record?
12:45Well, there has to be something.
12:47Why else would her father have had it sealed?
12:49Well, maybe a bloke in his position is doing it just to protect his daughter.
12:53You know, he's definitely hiding something.
12:55Oh, she's over there, darling.
12:56Oh, for more evaluation?
12:57Yes.
12:59Sorry.
13:00Will you please?
13:03Thanks.
13:12No, no, no, no.
13:13This can't be right.
13:14What?
13:14What is it?
13:15Well, she was charged with shoplifting when she was 13.
13:17A couple of pairs of jeans.
13:19That's it.
13:19That doesn't make sense.
13:21Why would Gordon seal that?
13:22Yeah, hang on.
13:22It's not like it's some big, dark, deep secret.
13:25Kids get dumb for that kind of stuff all the time.
13:27Well, maybe Alfred's right.
13:29And Daddy is overprotective of his darling little daughter.
13:33Well, so much for a reprieve.
13:41Come in, it's open.
13:42Hey, you still holding my wife hostage?
13:44Oh, she's here of her own free will, actually.
13:47Oh, right.
13:48Well, I just thought I'd come pick her up, save her the walk home.
13:50Did you have an accident?
13:52Oh, yeah, I, um, spilled some cranberry juice on the lounge.
13:56Nasty.
13:56I was just kidding about you holding Emily hostage.
14:00She really enjoys spending time with you.
14:02The feeling is mutual.
14:05Well, it's obviously working having a new best friend.
14:07She hasn't been this well in ages.
14:11Oh, here she is.
14:12Oh, this is a surprise.
14:16Is that on your top?
14:17No, no, I just, um, I never wear it.
14:20In fact, Sally was just admiring it so much,
14:22I thought I'd give it to her after it's washed.
14:35Well, not only are they going, but Kim reckons he needs to get away today,
14:38which means Rachel's going to be pining until she gets her act together to join him.
14:42He seems a bit rushed.
14:44Yeah, well, I get the impression he's not handling the attention so well.
14:46Not to mention the job situation.
14:49So unfair.
14:50Well, I thought maybe on the way home we could pop over and say goodbye.
14:55Oh, baby, I wish that you'd phone.
14:57I'd just promised Sally that I'd stay and look after people while she has a hair appointment.
15:01Oh.
15:02Oh, I can cancel that.
15:04No, you can't.
15:05You're just telling me how hard it is to get in.
15:08Okay.
15:08Well, I'll say goodbye for both of us, eh?
15:10Yeah, just tell Kim that I'll, um, I'll call him later.
15:13And we'll visit them once I settle then, eh?
15:16Sure.
15:17Yeah.
15:18Okay, well, I may as well get going then, I guess.
15:20Please say good luck for me, too.
15:22Yeah, I will do.
15:23I'll be home as soon as Sally gets back.
15:25Okay.
15:26No worries.
15:27Have fun.
15:27See you.
15:31See you.
15:33See you.
15:36See you.
15:43Hi.
15:45Hi.
15:47I guess we've got a lot to catch up on at school.
15:50Mm-hmm.
15:55Lucas, I know you're mad with me, and I respect that, but I meant when I said before I'd really
16:00like for us to be friends.
16:02Yeah, well, I can't promise anything.
16:07Lady, I'm sorry.
16:08I...
16:10I still love you.
16:13And I thought that you felt the same way about me.
16:18Lucas, I do love you.
16:19It's just not in the way.
16:20Don't say it like you feel sorry for me.
16:28Lucas, being at the retreat, it...
16:30It was a completely different experience for me.
16:33I learnt so much about myself and who I am.
16:37And whether it makes me a bad person or not, I met someone and got really close to them.
16:42And I'm not about to give that up.
16:45But it doesn't mean that I don't steal our feelings for you.
16:47It's just...
16:50I've...
16:50I've moved on.
16:53You're okay.
16:56I'm really sorry.
16:58I'm sorry.
17:02I'm sorry.
17:09It's not fair that I've dragged you into my mess and it's not fair that I'm asking you to lie
17:13and cover for me.
17:15Well, you know that I understand, Em.
17:17I'll do whatever you need me to.
17:20But do you think that I'm making bad choices?
17:23I just think that you're spending a lot of time and energy trying to keep the truth from Brad.
17:30There's time that you could be spending with him instead.
17:34In my head, I know that you're right.
17:37But in my heart, I still don't think that telling him is the right thing to do.
17:45All I can say is that when Flynn was going through all of this, you know, as his partner, I
17:53needed to know everything.
17:55You know, I needed to feel like I was part of his illness.
18:00And if he'd shut me out, I'd...
18:02I just would have felt betrayed.
18:06I can't help but think that Brad would feel exactly the same way.
18:15Good luck, love.
18:17And listen, give my love to your dad too, okay?
18:19Yeah, I will.
18:19I might stick with a more traditional handshake if it's all the time to you, mate.
18:23You're going to leave a big hole, you know that.
18:24You sure are, doll.
18:26Well, listen, Rachel and I will be getting a two-bedroom place, so there's plenty of room for visitors.
18:29Oh, careful, you might have a lot of takers.
18:32So, are these two to go?
18:33Yeah, I'll grab them, Mel.
18:34No, they're all right.
18:36Kim, I'm so sorry I couldn't prevent this, but I'll do everything in my car to ensure that you can
18:41return to the bedroom.
18:42You're free, mate.
18:43Thank you, Moray.
18:44Oh, no need for goodbyes.
18:45I've been seeing a lot of you in the city.
18:47It'll work out.
18:48You'll see.
18:49Yeah, listen, and all the best for you and Emily, mate.
18:52Well, you're all packed and ready to go, mate.
18:55Okay, well, I guess I'll see you when I see you.
18:59Bye, love.
19:00Yeah.
19:01Bye.
19:12I don't want you to go.
19:15Don't worry, I'll call you so often, you'll get your phone number changed.
19:19I miss you already.
19:21Just hurry up and come to the city, Hika.
19:24I love you.
19:25I love you too.
19:26I miss your weary eyes.
19:35It's been a long, strange ride.
19:41There must be, there must be, there must be, there must be, there must be something else we haven't found
20:01on this long, strange ride.
20:19Are you all right?
20:20I can sit up.
20:23Anyone home?
20:25Hey, sir.
20:26Hey, we weren't expecting you back.
20:27Oh, well, I decided to keep him company with the babysitting.
20:31What happened to your appointment?
20:32Oh, it didn't happen.
20:34Well, your hair looks nice anyway.
20:35Thanks.
20:36Well, Kim's gone, Rachel's devastated.
20:38It was all pretty depressing, really.
20:42What are you two looking so guilty about?
20:44I might just leave you two to talk.
20:47Talk about what?
20:48Sal, would you stay just for a bit?
20:51What's going on?
20:54Anne, you're scaring me.
21:01There's something I need to tell you.
21:09They look like the perfect couple.
21:12You're the one I want to be with, Rick.
21:13But she's denying her feelings for her ex.
21:16You should watch yourself around her.
21:17Are you jealous?
21:18No.
21:18Get over yourself.
21:18Will she finally admit it's her ex she really wants to be with?
21:23Look me in the eye right now.
21:24I'm telling you, you feel nothing for me.
21:26Home and Away.
21:27Tomorrow at 7.
21:28I love you.
21:28You're the one I want to be with.
21:29I love you.
21:29I don't know.
21:29I love you.
