00:01Hey, I didn't mean to cause trouble between you and Rachel today. I was just scared.
00:05Kit, listen, you didn't do anything wrong. You were just trying to look out for him.
00:12If I stay, it's with you.
00:15And if I go, I can assure you I'm not coming back.
00:21So what's it gonna be?
00:43Batch. Hey.
00:45Hey.
00:47I didn't realise you'd left the hospital.
00:49Oh, sorry. I got the feeling that you and Kit didn't really want me hanging around.
00:55No, look.
00:58We didn't get a chance to finish our conversation before.
01:01But you meant our argument.
01:03I don't want to fight. I just want you to know.
01:06Yeah, good, good, because neither do I.
01:08Okay, today has been...
01:09I know that I could have handled the situation with Kit a lot better.
01:13But listen, for you to accuse me of...
01:15Yeah, okay, yeah, Rachel, I don't want to talk about it, really.
01:18I'm exhausted, okay? I'm going to bed.
01:30I'm sorry, I'm late. I really thought I was going to be home for dinner.
01:34It's okay, let me help you with these.
01:36But tea's ready when you are.
01:38You're in a good mood.
01:40Well, I realised that I haven't been a pleasure to be around lately.
01:43I wasn't saying anything.
01:45I know, I know you weren't, but it's true.
01:48Don't worry about it.
01:49You don't deserve it, Sal.
01:51If I have to wait around for somebody to tell me if I've still got a career or not,
01:55then who cares?
01:56Because I've still got you.
01:58Brad, you're going to have a long and distinguished career, okay?
02:01The education department would be crazy to let you go.
02:06So what have I missed?
02:07What's been happening in the trenches at Somervet High?
02:09Oh, I thought you'd never ask.
02:10Evening sports fans, just this girl on the footy, I've got a bed at work.
02:14Did we finish this upstairs?
02:16Yes.
02:23Will you two stop staring at me, please?
02:25You don't have to watch me like a hawk.
02:27I'm not going to leave without saying goodbye.
02:30Yeah, but we don't want you to leave full stop.
02:32Look, I'm going to miss you two, but there are great things coming for me and Archie,
02:35and I promise we will come and visit.
02:37No, it still sucks.
02:43Maddie, come on.
02:46You sure you're doing this for the right reasons?
02:48Yes.
02:52It's too soon after mum.
02:54It's not too late to come with me.
02:58Look, this is one time when I have to be selfish.
03:02And you have Rick and Lucas and Cassie, and you're not even going to miss me.
03:07You know I will.
03:08You are the only real family that I have left.
03:11Do you think I'm not going to miss you two?
03:12Of course I am.
03:14But Archie and I need to get on with our lives.
03:16I'm not running away.
03:17I'm trying to move forward.
03:19That's it.
03:20What can I do without you?
03:21You are going to be fine, and you're going to wonder what you're worried about.
03:26There you go.
03:29Look, I'm going to Rick's.
03:30Can you try and talk some sense into it?
03:35You're going somewhere.
03:43Okay, what if I told you that I didn't want you to go?
03:48I think we're past hypotheticals, don't you think?
03:50I'm serious.
03:51Would you stay?
03:53I can't stay here any longer, Kim.
03:55There's nothing here for me anymore.
03:56Hey, that's not true.
03:57Really?
03:58Then you tell me.
03:59What am I staying for?
04:01Well, Matilda.
04:03Okay, yes.
04:03I'm going to miss Matilda,
04:04but she's not the deciding factor here, Kim.
04:06You are.
04:07So you tell me, why should I stay?
04:09What do you want me to say?
04:10I want you to tell me how you feel.
04:13Because telling me you don't want me to go
04:15isn't enough of a reason for me to stay.
04:17I'm sorry.
04:18Look, it's not a test, Rach.
04:20It's really quite simple.
04:22See, it's not that simple.
04:23Isn't it?
04:24Or are you just making it more complicated
04:25because you don't want to hurt anybody by your answer?
04:27I'm not making it anything, okay?
04:28This mess is what it is whether I want it that way or not.
04:31So put the mess aside for a minute.
04:33You know how I feel.
04:34I want to know if you feel the same way.
04:36And if you're still at the I don't know stage...
04:38Yes, I am.
04:38Okay, I don't know.
04:39All I know is the thought of losing my family is killing me.
04:42I'm not your family.
04:44Yeah, well, Archie is.
04:46Great.
04:46So I stay and you get what you want.
04:48What do I get?
04:49You get more time.
04:50I don't need more time.
04:52Well, I do.
04:53I suddenly find out that you're leaving
04:55and you're never going to come back.
04:56And I'm just supposed to make up my mind on the spot.
04:58You're asking me to put my life on hold for a maybe?
05:04I love you.
05:07Well, then come with me.
05:09I know that we're meant to be together.
05:11And if I'm wrong, you'll stay in Summer Bay
05:13and you'll live happily ever after.
05:15And if I'm right, I'm right.
05:17And you'll come with me.
05:27We can't.
05:27We can't do this.
05:28Yes, we can.
05:30We can.
05:37The boy Jeff was at a boarding school in the city,
05:40but no school has a current record of him or his sister.
05:42Annie and Jeff Campbell.
05:43What's the department sign?
05:45I haven't told them yet.
05:48Well, if you're right and Annie's 14 years old,
05:52then legally she should be at school.
05:54I mean, her grandfather should know that if he's her legal guardian.
05:57Well, what if he doesn't?
05:59I mean, they've been in our catchment area for this long
06:01and they're not at school.
06:02Doesn't that make you wonder why?
06:03Well, isn't that all the more reason to let the department know?
06:07I just don't want to get them involved
06:08until we know what we're dealing with.
06:10I've only met them once.
06:11There may be a perfectly good explanation.
06:14Okay.
06:15But how are you going to find out what that is?
06:19It's gonna be all wrapped this year
06:25It's gonna be all wrapped this year
06:35Hello?
06:37Is anybody home?
06:39No, not those ones.
06:41Separate, now to the other coop.
06:42Can I get the eggs?
06:43Sweet first, then get the eggs.
06:52Get back in your car!
06:55I told the bank I won't sell.
06:57Now you can tell them yourself.
06:58I'm not from the bank.
07:00My name's Sally.
07:01I don't care who you are.
07:02This is private property.
07:03And you've got no place here.
07:06Hey!
07:08What?
07:08Just cut it on the wire.
07:09Well, you just take her inside.
07:10She'll be alright.
07:12That looks nice.
07:13Nobody asked you.
07:14She's gonna need some stitches and a tetanus shot.
07:16Yeah, she's right, Pop.
07:17We should take her to see a doctor.
07:18Yeah, well you just take her inside and get the rubbing alcohol out of the cupboard.
07:20You can't treat it like that.
07:21I told you to go.
07:22Pop, listen.
07:23We can't fix this here.
07:25We need to take her into a hospital now!
07:35How is she?
07:36Pleased for you, and she's fine.
07:38You've got two wonderful grandchildren, Mr Campbell.
07:41Geoff was just telling me how much he loves being on the farm.
07:45How long has it been since either of them have been to school?
07:49They get a good education from hard work in the King James Bible.
07:53Well, sorry, but the law doesn't agree.
07:55If Annie's under 15, it's actually illegal to keep her from going to school.
07:58She gets school.
07:59She gets home lessons.
08:01We'll leave the education department.
08:02Well, I'm not breaking any laws.
08:04Why don't you mind your own business and just leave us in peace?
08:09What?
08:10No, we can't take the dinghy out.
08:12Why?
08:13It's perfect.
08:13Why?
08:14Well, because the boat's not finished yet, and Dad's not home, so I can't ask him.
08:18Well, we can ask him.
08:19We'll just go and ask him at the gym.
08:21No, Rick, after the wave that he went off at me, he's not going to let us use it full
08:24stop.
08:26Okay, here's what we do.
08:27We take the boat out, we have a good time, we bring it back, and he won't even know that
08:31it's gone.
08:32Oh, no, no.
08:34That's a joke, right?
08:35As if he's not going to notice.
08:38Well, he is going to be at work all day, and he won't be anywhere near the wharf.
08:42Look, I just, I want to get home to Kit, okay?
08:44And if the boat's our fastest option.
08:47Oh, we could just not go at all.
08:49Oh, do what, man?
08:50Just hang around here and do nothing?
08:51Nothing's going to happen with the boat, man.
08:54Alright, fine, fine, we'll go.
08:56But if anything happens, I've got food, we're going to get drinks at the dime.
08:59Hey, I was off to the beach.
09:01Uh, we're going for a picnic at Stuart's Point.
09:03Oh, that sounds nice.
09:04Have fun.
09:05See ya.
09:05See ya.
09:09Well, I hurt your car.
09:10Are you alright?
09:11Oh, yeah, I'm fine.
09:11I'm sorry I even called you.
09:13Oh, don't be silly.
09:14The guy had a gun.
09:15Oh, I'm okay.
09:16I'm just more worried about those kids.
09:19The grandfather's telling me that he's homeschooling Annie, but from the look that Jeff gave him,
09:23I'm not sure that that's true.
09:25And here's the other thing.
09:26Jeff's telling me that Annie's slow, but she seems bright enough to me.
09:31Well, maybe she's got a learning difficulty.
09:33Yeah, right.
09:33Well, how are we meant to fix that if the grandfather won't let her come to school?
09:36So?
09:37I know it might seem like I'm sticking my bib in, but they're in my district.
09:41They're my responsibility.
09:47Hey, where'd you go?
09:50Uh, just for a walk.
09:52I didn't think that you wanted to talk, so...
09:57What about you?
09:58I went over to see, um, Archie.
10:02Kid told me she's decided to leave today.
10:05Today?
10:06Yeah.
10:09She really means it.
10:11Yeah, she does.
10:18Wedding photos.
10:20Pretty amazing day, huh?
10:24Four days later, Kid showed up.
10:30Rach, listen, no.
10:33What?
10:37What is it?
10:40Nah, nothing.
10:44You were gonna say something, though.
10:45Did you wanna say anything?
10:49I don't know.
10:51Yeah, I think I do.
10:54What is it?
10:56Well, it's not one...
11:00thing, um...
11:01We haven't finished talking, and I think we should.
11:03I...
11:04I just think that, um...
11:11Oh, you answered it.
11:13I didn't go see Lee anyway.
11:14I'd love to.
11:24You slept with Hugh?
11:26Oh, Rach.
11:27I know.
11:28It was a complete mistake.
11:30I'd had such a bad day with Kim, and...
11:32and Hugh was there for me, and we just...
11:34came into it.
11:36Now he's leaving, and you don't know what to do.
11:40Well, do you love him?
11:44Feels like he's been in my life forever, and...
11:47he's really been there for me when Kim hasn't.
11:52Yeah, I love him.
11:54But I'm married to Kim, and I don't want to hurt him.
11:57It's the same as loving him.
11:58I do love him.
12:01For all the same reasons that I married him.
12:04So you either throw away a marriage for something that might not even work.
12:08Or I let Hugh leave for a marriage that right now feels like it's doomed.
12:15Just, I...
12:16I choose one, I lose the other one.
12:18What am I supposed to do? I can't choose.
12:20I think you just need to think about it again.
12:22And again, and...
12:24I don't have the time.
12:26He's leaving this afternoon.
12:27He wants a decision by then.
12:29We can't put a deadline on you like this.
12:30He has. It's 3 o'clock.
12:33Either I leave with him, or he's never gonna come back.
12:37Oh, I hate it, Todd.
12:56I can't believe it.
12:59I can't believe it.
13:00We just sank Dad's boat.
13:01What am I gonna do?
13:02Dad's gonna kill me.
13:03We did put your foot through it.
13:05It's not funny, though.
13:07Guys, my life is over, and all you can do is laugh.
13:11No, I'm not laughing.
13:12I just think it's good that, even though there is a hole in the bottom, you still tried to empty
13:17the water with your hat.
13:18I think it was brilliant.
13:18Because I was trying to save the boat.
13:20Because I saw Luke.
13:24Seriously, please.
13:25Stop laughing.
13:26What are we gonna do?
13:27What are we gonna do?
13:27We do nothing.
13:30And what do we say when Dad asks where the boat is?
13:32You say nothing, Captain Jack Sparrow.
13:34You wait until we can figure out what to do.
13:43Jeff!
13:47Where have you been?
13:48Walking.
13:49What does it look like?
13:49It shouldn't have run off.
13:51Pop's waiting and he's really angry.
13:53Yeah, well, maybe I'm angry too.
13:55I mean, Pop lied, Annie.
13:56He told Sally you were getting schooled at home and you're not.
13:59Why did he do that?
14:00I...
14:02You know what?
14:03Let's just get going.
14:05How's your arm?
14:07It's fine.
14:08But the doctors are not allowed to do too much until it heals.
14:10Great.
14:11More work for me, then.
14:13Look at it this way.
14:14If I didn't cut my arm, then we wouldn't have come back here twice in one week.
14:18That's more than we've ever been anywhere.
14:21I love it here.
14:22Maybe if we keep coming back, we could make some friends.
14:25Jeff!
14:26Annie, hi!
14:28How's your arm going?
14:30A bit sore, but it's fine.
14:31That's good to hear.
14:33I just wanted to ask you about what your granddad was telling me before.
14:36Sorry, we really have to get home.
14:38Well, I just need to know if it's true.
14:39I mean, Annie, are you being taught at home?
14:42You're reading and writing in your maths?
14:43Well, please, just leave us alone!
14:45Annie, let's go!
14:45Jeff, you're being rude!
14:46I'm not trying to get anybody into trouble.
14:49If Annie's being taught at home, then that's great.
14:50But if she's not, then we need to talk about that.
14:53I'm not.
14:55Okay.
14:56You have your answer.
14:57Can we go home now, please?
14:59I was wondering if you might like to talk about it.
15:02Why don't you come to my place?
15:03Your Pop's very welcome as well.
15:04Look, we need to go home.
15:05We're already in enough trouble as it is.
15:10You said you were right,
15:11which means you have to go to the department's.
15:13I mean, not just for Annie's sake, but for yours.
15:15If it comes out that you knew something and you didn't say anything...
15:18I'm not trying to pull the wool over the department's eyes, Brad.
15:20I just want this to be a positive experience for Annie and Jeff.
15:24I want him to want to come to school.
15:27Okay, fair point.
15:29But I'm just worried about what you're risking
15:30by not playing by the book yourself.
15:32I did it with Naomi and look what happened.
15:34Oh, that was different.
15:36This, um...
15:37I think that I can solve this just by talking Bruce around.
15:41Do you really think you can get through to him?
15:43Well, I have to if I want to get Annie to school.
15:46And if Jeff wants to go to theological college,
15:48he's going to have to come back to school and finish too.
15:51Once they're enrolled, the department is going to know about them.
15:53So, for now, I just don't see the harm in trying.
16:01Brad Armstrong.
16:03Oh, g'day, mate.
16:04Thanks for calling me back.
16:05Look, I'm just calling to see if there's any news on my case yet.
16:08Orange juice and an apple, too.
16:10And I'll have...
16:11Right.
16:12No, just on the off chance.
16:14Okay, thanks.
16:14Hey, just quickly.
16:16What's the department's policy on long-term truancy these days?
16:22If I told you a secret
16:26Would you understand?
16:30Could you promise that you'd keep it
16:33Keep it in your hand?
16:37I don't know
16:42Where we go from here
16:46We keep spinning round in circles
16:50Are we going nowhere?
16:53I can't see the future
16:58Are we already there?
17:02I won't laugh like I used to
17:04Cry like the cop with you
17:10I don't know where
17:14Where we go from here
17:18Come lay down beside me
17:22And I'll tell you a story
17:26Lay your head upon your pillow
17:30Look outside your window
17:34I'll be the stars
17:38I'll be the stars
17:44We've had a lot of weather
17:48You and me
17:52Nothing is forever
17:55The winds are calling me
18:00You know I want to know our pieces
18:02But I pulled at all the pieces
18:04And now we need all the king's sources
18:08You know I want to know our pieces
18:10But I pulled at all the pieces
18:12And now we need all the king's sources
18:16Come lay it down beside me
18:20And I'll tell you a story
18:24Lay your head upon your pillow
18:28And look outside your window
18:35It's not as bad as you think
18:37No, it's worse
18:39Yeah, I'm gonna get home to Kit
18:41Ah, young Lucas, you might be able to help me
18:44Any idea where your old man stashed his boat?
18:46He said the bung had had it
18:47So I got him another one
18:49Um, no, no, it's uh
18:52It's not down at the wharf
18:53No, no, you know
18:54He might have it over at Gibbo's
18:56Having the seals checked
18:57Um, I'll see you later, thanks mate
19:00We need to get out of here now
19:02Yes
19:05No, no, no, yeah, I understand
19:07I'll um, I'll get that to you before then, okay?
19:11Yeah, okay, bye
19:15Who was that?
19:17The Education Department
19:18Calling to tee up a meeting about Annie Campbell
19:23Why would you tell your friend about her when you knew how I wanted to handle this?
19:26Look, I called Nick to find out about my case and I just happened to mention Annie
19:29I told him to keep it off the record
19:31Well, he didn't and now there's gonna be an investigation
19:33Well, I didn't know he was gonna say anything
19:35Why would you mention it at all?
19:37I did it for you
19:38For me?
19:39Yes
19:40I was checking the policy because I was worried that you were gonna get into trouble
19:43Well, the way they tell it, it sounds like you're trying to help your own case by giving them a
19:47tip off
19:47What? I wasn't doing that
19:49But yeah, okay
19:51I mean, how would it look for me if they knew that I turned a blind eye to truancy?
19:55Not good, I imagine
19:56That's why I was hoping it was never gonna get to this
19:59You should have just let me handle it, Brad
20:01Like I asked you to
20:17I called and left a message on your phone before my friend's address in the city
