00:01My old grandad had glaucoma and it was diagnosed when he was about the same age as I am now.
00:08Have you seen a doctor?
00:09I can feel my sight fading and I guess I just don't want to hear it confirmed.
00:15He slept with Hugh.
00:18Is this why he took off overseas?
00:21You said that there's something that you have to tell me too.
00:24Oh no, I guess Kip.
00:27I knew something was going on.
00:29What happened to us?
00:30Kim, you've been ignoring me for months. All you ever talk about is Kip and Archie.
00:36Hey, don't walk away, Kim!
00:57Kim, you can't shut me out.
00:59Listen, we wouldn't have told each other the truth if we weren't ready to deal with what we've done.
01:03I can't believe this.
01:05The guy's supposed to be your best friend. I shared my house with him.
01:11Is that why you asked him to stay in the first place? You had other ideas?
01:14Of course not. Why are you making this sound like...
01:16Because, Rachel, you don't just accidentally sleep with someone, Rachel.
01:18You don't ever happen to kiss someone either.
01:22It happened on the day that you said you didn't want to have a family anymore.
01:25Instead of talking to me about it, you wanted to have your friends over and just forget it.
01:30Yeah, for one night, Rachel, and that excuses this?
01:32No, it doesn't.
01:33But the fact is that you weren't there for me when I needed you to be.
01:36No, but you obviously was, wasn't it?
01:39It just happened.
01:41I'm sorry.
01:43I regret it more than I can tell you.
01:46But you're acting like I'm the only one who's done something wrong.
01:49Don't even try and compare this, okay?
01:51Kissy Kit is not even in the same league.
01:52You still betrayed my trust.
01:54Yeah, and then I stopped it, Rachel.
01:55I realised what I was doing and I stopped it.
01:56I didn't let it go any further than that.
01:58You know what?
01:58When you told me that you slept with Kit when you were lost,
02:01I accepted what happened despite how much it hurt me.
02:05I stood by you.
02:06And now you're telling me that you can't forgive me for this.
02:09So that's what this is?
02:10That's an IOU.
02:11I did it so you can do its payback or something.
02:13What happened with Hugh was so much more complicated than that.
02:15No, I don't even want to hear it, Rachel.
02:18Hey, we have to find a way through this.
02:21Yeah, do we?
02:23What?
02:44What's that?
02:44A funny face?
02:46Hello.
02:47Hey.
02:49Where's Brad?
02:49I didn't expect you to babysit all day.
02:51Oh, Pippa's been an angel.
02:53I think Brad's busy.
02:54I haven't seen him since this morning.
02:55Oh, okay.
02:56Mr. Stewart not home yet either.
02:57Hello.
02:57Why?
02:58He was here but then he left.
03:00Oh.
03:00Sal, do you know about Grandad's eyesight?
03:04Apparently it's not too good at the moment.
03:06Since when?
03:07Well, I don't know.
03:08He only told me this morning and that's because Jack caught him driving without his licence
03:11that expired six weeks ago.
03:13He reckons he didn't want to renew it because he didn't want to fail the eyesight test
03:17but now he's out there driving around on it.
03:18Yeah, that's crazy.
03:20If his eyesight's failing he could seriously hurt someone.
03:22Or himself.
03:23I tried telling him that but he won't listen.
03:25Do you reckon you could talk to him when you get home?
03:27Yeah, yeah, yeah.
03:28Absolutely I will.
03:29It's not like your Grandad to be out there breaking the law.
03:32Yeah, well, I'd better get going.
03:33I've got my shifts.
03:35Bye.
03:36Is it just me or are you working seven days a week?
03:39Well, I've got no choice.
03:40It's only me, Grandad and a casual holding the fort.
03:42Which reminds me it's another thing I need to speak to him about.
03:45Hiring new staff.
03:46Oh, good luck.
03:46Oh, if you see Brad, can you ask him when he plans on coming home?
03:50Yeah.
03:51Bye.
03:51See ya.
03:52Bye Martha.
03:54Bye.
03:55Here we are.
03:56Coffee number two.
03:58Oh, thanks.
03:58Rather a long lunch, isn't it?
04:01Well, if you really want to know, I've been out and about.
04:03I decided to cap it off with a swim and a longish lunch.
04:05Is that okay with you?
04:06It's alright for some.
04:08Excuse me, what did you say?
04:11Look, I'm a teacher, Colleen.
04:13There's nowhere else than I'd rather be than back at school,
04:15but I can't until the department has finished the investigation now, can I?
04:18There's plenty of things you could do, though, to fill in the time.
04:22Of course, because I've been doing nothing for the past two weeks.
04:25Well, you haven't looked at my septic system yet.
04:28I've asked you three times.
04:29Every time I flush, the water keeps rising.
04:32It's like living in the Titanic.
04:34Well, if it's that bad, then I suggest you call a plumber.
04:38What about all the time that we've missed out on?
04:40The hours that he spent with Kit and Archie and I didn't say anything.
04:43Doesn't that count for something?
04:44It does, but...
04:46Rach, you didn't just scratch the car.
04:48You slept with another man.
04:51Well, he kissed Kit.
04:52If it didn't mean anything, why was it so difficult for him to tell me?
04:55Well, he was probably scared how you'd react just like you were.
04:59You're both hurting and you're both really angry with each other.
05:04You've just got to give each other some time to cool off before you talk about this again.
05:09I should never have said anything in the first place.
05:11You tried to warn me.
05:12I still managed to kid myself into thinking that he'd be upset, but he'd handle it.
05:16All right, Jim's closed.
05:24KC, read the sign of the door, mate, it's closed.
05:25Get out.
05:34There you go, love.
05:35I'll just go out and get the other box.
05:38I assume you've got your licence renewed.
05:40Well, of course I have.
05:41As if you'd be driving if you didn't, Jack.
05:42Just lay off.
05:45Strike me, handsome.
05:46What's that?
05:49Kim, are you okay?
05:50Yeah.
05:51What happened?
05:52Nothing, it's just an accident.
05:53I'm fine.
05:54You sure?
05:55I mean, what's going on, mate?
05:55Look, maybe I threw a dumbbell at the door.
05:57Big deal.
05:57I'll fix it, okay?
05:58It's no problem.
06:00You guys get back to her.
06:01I'll help you.
06:02Jack, I'm fine.
06:02You can go too.
06:04I assume that you told Rachel that you kissed Kit.
06:08She didn't take it too well.
06:10Rachel slept with Hugh.
06:15Hey.
06:18You took a while in Yabby Creek.
06:20Well, actually, I've been back for a couple of hours.
06:22I went for a swim and had some lunch at the diner.
06:26Do you know that Martha was babysitting the whole time?
06:28Yeah.
06:29Is that a problem?
06:30Yeah.
06:30Well, it just would have been nice for you to come home a bit earlier and relieve her.
06:34You know how hard she's been working lately.
06:35Well, I thought you'd arranged for her to be here for a while, so I took the chance to
06:40do some things for myself.
06:43What, like, go for a swim and have lunch?
06:46Hmm.
06:46And I got the wigs.
06:47Is that such a bad thing?
06:48No.
06:49I mean, I thought that was the point of getting a babysitter.
06:51Yeah, it is.
06:54Look, I just thought after our talk last week about you not wanting to be treated like
06:59a handyman, I've really been trying to respect that, Brad.
07:04And I appreciate it.
07:05But it just seems like you've gone from being really motivated and using your time
07:10to not being interested in much at all.
07:13Well, it's not easy staying upbeat when your career's hanging by a thread and there's
07:17nothing you can do about it.
07:18Well, there are things you can do about it.
07:19Well, like what?
07:20I've tried calling the department, but there's nothing that they can or want to do for me,
07:24so I don't know where I stand.
07:26Well, what about your solicitors?
07:27I thought you were going to see them again.
07:28Yeah, I was.
07:29But I cancelled.
07:31Why?
07:32Well, I had nothing new to tell them.
07:34Brad, they work for you.
07:36Ask them to put more pressure on the department.
07:38It's their job to make sure that you don't get stonewalled.
07:41I don't know.
07:42Get them to appoint a new investigator or something.
07:45Okay.
07:45You're right.
07:46You're right.
07:47Get on to it.
07:49Are you headed back to school?
07:50Yeah, I've got a million things to do before I go out to dinner with the girls tonight.
07:54And Cassie's got a maths test, which I know she hasn't studied before.
07:57I think she's still having a bit of backlash after what happened with Jules.
08:00Yeah, well, that's enough to distract anyone.
08:02Yeah, but it's an assessment, so can you gently remind her about it?
08:06Of course.
08:06You might even have to give her a hand.
08:07Yes, of course.
08:09Okay.
08:09I'll probably be late, so there's no point waiting up.
08:12All right.
08:13Have fun.
08:13Yeah.
08:14See you, Pip.
08:15Bye.
08:18I just never thought that Rachel would do something like this.
08:22Did she tell you why it happened?
08:24Well, what difference does it make, Jake?
08:27I mean, look, I was spending a lot of time with Kit and Archie, but I had to.
08:30I didn't expect my wife to jump into bed with her so-called friend because I wasn't around
08:34some nights.
08:38I think there's something else you need to consider.
08:41Yeah?
08:41What's that, Jake?
08:42You kissed Kit.
08:44Yeah.
08:46You kissed her because you had feelings for her.
08:48So?
08:50So, maybe that meant that you were neglecting certain aspects of your marriage.
08:55That is none of your business.
08:56What are you saying?
08:56I drove Rachel into Hugh's bed?
08:58No, I'm not.
08:58And don't jump down my throat for saying this, but generally speaking, people don't sleep
09:03with other people if they're happy in their marriage.
09:05Or kiss someone else for that matter.
09:06Yeah, well, there is a huge difference between sleeping with someone and kissing them.
09:09All I'm saying is just think this through calmly before you're making serious decisions.
09:14Well, you think Rachel did that before she slept with you?
09:16I don't know.
09:16Yeah.
09:17And you're not going to know until you talk to her?
09:18Yeah, well, can you go, Jack?
09:21I'm just trying to help.
09:22I don't want your help, okay?
09:23I'm not asking you.
09:24I'm telling you.
09:24Get out.
09:26Fine.
09:28Just don't do anything stupid.
09:41Kim's had a bit of a rough trot lately.
09:43And I know how frustrated a bloke can get when he feels like he's not in control of his
09:47own life.
09:48A bit like growing old, huh?
09:50I'm talking about Kim's problems, not mine.
09:53You still haven't got your license renewed, have you?
09:57Thanks for covering for me when Jack was here before.
10:00I'm really sorry you had to lie like that.
10:02Well, technically I didn't.
10:04I just told him I didn't think you'd drive without a license.
10:06Yeah, it was just a hell of a shame he was here when I happened to walk in.
10:10So, are you going to get it done today?
10:11Yeah, yeah, yeah.
10:12I'll get it done as soon as I get time to scratch myself.
10:15Sooner's better than later.
10:16If we're relying on people to drive you around to get the supplies, then things are going
10:19to get even more hectic around here.
10:21Well, we're managing all right, aren't we?
10:22No, we're not.
10:23We're understaffed.
10:24I haven't had a day off in ages.
10:26Yeah, well, I'll tell you something for nothing.
10:28There's no way knowing a man I'm going to hire somebody to do something that I'm perfectly
10:31capable of doing myself.
10:36Are you cool, Kim?
10:38I'm not here.
10:38Leave a message.
10:40Kimmy.
10:45Listen, I know you probably hate me right now, but staying away isn't making things easier
10:50for either of us.
10:54Just come home, please.
11:07Hey, did you get all the cleaning up gun?
11:08Yeah.
11:13I've got a question for you.
11:14Can you just give me a minute?
11:15I've got to slack the vision.
11:16Just a quick one.
11:17It won't take long.
11:17Did you know that Rachel slept with Hugh?
11:21You did, didn't you?
11:22You knew the whole time and you didn't tell me.
11:24He told me in confidence.
11:25It wasn't my place to say anything.
11:26Right.
11:27So you're okay with him sleeping with my wife?
11:29No.
11:30No?
11:30Well, tell me Martha, what happened?
11:32Did he confide in you with all the juicy details?
11:34Kim.
11:35You should have told me.
11:36Look, we don't need to talk about it here, okay?
11:38I thought we were mates.
11:39Look, I'm sorry, but you need to talk to Rachel about this, not me.
11:43Did he tell you how many times it happened?
11:45I'm not having this conversation with you.
11:51I'm not having this conversation with you.
11:53Oh, my God.
12:04Rachel, uh, hi.
12:06Come here.
12:07Listen, I'm sorry.
12:09I was just wondering if you've seen Kim today.
12:12Uh...
12:13Okay, obviously you have.
12:14Yeah, he was at the gym.
12:17He told you everything?
12:19Yeah, pretty much.
12:20I'm sorry.
12:22You don't have to feel bad about thinking the worst of me.
12:24I just wish you would have talked to me instead.
12:26Well, I wasn't really talking or listening.
12:28It was more like ranting.
12:31Just so you know, I'm not taking sides here.
12:34Thanks.
12:35I'm sure once he gets his head around this and cools down,
12:38he'll come home.
12:39Yeah, maybe.
12:41Maybe he won't come back.
12:43He's not gonna turn his back on everything you guys have.
12:46Well, if you want to be with Kit and Archie,
12:48this is the perfect excuse.
12:54Oh, Jack, you take that home.
12:56Sure.
13:00Hey, Martha, what's up?
13:11Didn't I say we don't need to go hiring staff yet?
13:14Yeah, except when you were at the RTA,
13:15someone brought the till because I was in the storeroom
13:17and no one was watching the bar.
13:18Well, why wasn't it locked?
13:19You've got a key.
13:20Well, it's hard when you're running around doing the work of two people.
13:24How much did they get away with this time?
13:26Not much.
13:26Just a few hundred.
13:27Have you called the cops?
13:28Jack's on his way.
13:30So, did you get a licence?
13:33Grandad.
13:34I failed the eye test.
13:36What does this mean?
13:38Did you see a doctor?
13:39Well, I haven't had time.
13:40I've had these supplies to pick up.
13:41Don't worry about the supplies.
13:43You need to figure out what's wrong with your eyesight.
13:44I'm not going to let the business go down the gurgler.
13:47Oh, this is crazy.
13:48You can't drive.
13:49How do you think I got here?
13:51I mean, I didn't push the ute home, did I?
13:53And I certainly wasn't going to leave it parked in Yabby Creek.
13:55Grandad, you could have had an accident.
13:56I know this is hard, but you have to face the problem.
13:59We'll talk about it later.
14:00I've got these supplies to pick up.
14:01Mr Stewart, I thought I'd call in and see if you wanted to live to the RTA.
14:04I've got it all covered, thanks, love.
14:05I can't stop, sorry.
14:07So he's renewed his licence then?
14:08No.
14:09He failed his eye test, they confiscated his licence, and now he's going to continue to drive.
14:22Mr Stewart, wait!
14:25Please don't do this!
14:28Mr Stewart!
14:34Hey!
14:35You hurt?
14:36No, no, no.
14:37I'm fine.
14:40He didn't even see me.
14:42He barely ran me down.
14:43He doesn't even realise.
15:08Hi.
15:09Kit, it's Rachel.
15:11Oh, Rachel, this is a surprise.
15:13Yeah.
15:14Yeah, I guess it is.
15:17How's Archie?
15:18Yeah, he's fine, thanks.
15:19Enjoying life in the big city there?
15:21Oh, I guess so.
15:23Um, listen, he's just about to wake up, so are you ringing for something in particular?
15:28Yeah, I was wondering, um, I'm trying to get in contact with Kim.
15:33Have you heard from him?
15:34No, what?
15:37No.
15:37No, everything's fine.
15:41Um, if you hear from him, can you just ask him to call me, please?
15:44It's important.
15:45Yeah, sure.
15:46Um, but, Rachel, maybe Kim hasn't told you this.
15:48We're not speaking every day at the moment, so I'm not expecting to hear from him.
15:55Hello?
15:57Just give him the message if you hear from him, please.
16:00Yeah, sure.
16:05Hello?
16:06Oh, hi, Cassie.
16:07What's up?
16:10Yeah, yeah, sure you can, as long as that's okay with Tony.
16:13Nah, it's just Pip.
16:15We've lost the remote control again.
16:17Yeah.
16:18All right, have fun.
16:21G'day, Jay.
16:22What's up?
16:23Has Al come home yet?
16:46Mr. Stewart?
16:49Are you all right?
16:53I tried to stop you from driving away from the surf club.
16:58He nearly hit me.
17:00What?
17:01Mr. Stewart, what if it was Pippa?
17:03Or just some other kid crossing the road.
17:22Thanks for not pressing charges.
17:23I do appreciate it.
17:24Yeah, well, make sure you don't get behind the wheel again.
17:26Yeah, don't worry.
17:27I've learned my lesson.
17:27Do you want to ride?
17:28Yeah, sure.
17:30I'm sorry.
17:31I'm sorry too, darling.
17:33And don't worry, we'll sort out that stuff thing tomorrow, eh?
17:36Yeah.
17:37Bye.
17:38Until you go to the doctors, they don't even know if it's permanent.
17:40They might be able to do something.
17:42Yeah.
17:44Where's Cassie?
17:45Oh, she called earlier, said that she's going to be home a bit late from Matilda's.
17:49Oh, heaven help us, it's a disaster.
17:52What's wrong?
17:53Well, the septic tank's overflowed, and the grass around my van is covered in nobody's business.
17:58It's like the mud pits of Rotorua out there.
18:01And if you'd done something about it earlier like I asked, I wouldn't be ankle deep in the
18:05strike I am now.
18:06It's okay, Colleen.
18:07Calm down.
18:08I'll come up and look at it.
18:10Let me just get a tour.
18:11Grab two, I'll give you a hand.
18:12Come on, Colleen, show me where the leak is.
18:15So you knew about this, but you didn't do anything?
18:18Well, I didn't know it was this bad.
18:19You know how Colleen carries on.
18:21Well, I think Mr Stewart's not the only person having trouble seeing.
18:24Well, that's a bit unfair.
18:25Well, you've been driving around with him.
18:26Did you notice that he was struggling?
18:28Well, if I had, if I would have said something.
18:29And you haven't noticed anything either.
18:31Um, Brad, I asked you to remind Cassie that she has a maths test tomorrow,
18:36but now you're telling me that she's not coming home till later.
18:38Well, I was a little bit distracted.
18:39Yeah, and did you know that Rachel's having serious marriage problems?
18:43I had no idea.
18:46I'm just worried that you're sliding into some sort of depression.
18:51If I don't make you aware of it, then it's only going to get worse.
18:54Okay, look, I'll call my solicitor in the morning
18:56and I'll get him to put a rocket up the department.
18:58How does that sound?
19:00Sounds like a good place to start.
19:03I just want you to be happy.
19:04Well, right now, nothing is going to make me happier
19:07than sticking my head in Colleen's septic tank.
19:16Oh, I'm so pleased to hear that.
19:18Yeah, I hope you're right, Sal.
19:19All right, well, I'll see you as soon as I finish work.
19:22Bye.
19:29Kim, what are you doing here?
19:32I've got nowhere else to go.
19:36I don't know if this helps, hearing this, but Rachel behaved a lot more honourably than you think.
19:43I'll bet she did.
19:44She did.
19:46Hugh was crazy about her.
19:47He wanted to marry her and give her a family.
19:49Everything that she wanted.
19:51But you know what?
19:53She chose you.
19:54She stayed because she loves you and she wants to make your marriage work.
19:58She never once gave up on you guys.
20:01I don't think you should give up on her without giving her a second chance.
20:05Go home, Kim.
20:06Unless you've got somewhere better to be.
20:31Great.
20:33Kim's still not home.
20:35He hasn't even called.
20:38Well, it's okay.
20:40He's probably just taking his time working through it.
20:42No, it's not okay.
20:43He should be here.
20:45If he cared about her marriage, he would be.
20:46He does care.
20:48And where is he?
20:53Kim.
20:55Hi.
20:56Hi.
20:56Hi.
20:57Hi.
20:58Hi.
20:58Will he give his marriage a second chance or will he choose the mother of his baby?
21:06Home and away.
21:07Tomorrow.
21:09This is the true story of the men and women there to save your life.
21:14I'm here with the lifesavers!
21:15The real life rescues.
21:16Taking a lot of water.
21:18That don't always end well.
21:20Squeeze my hand.
21:21Did you hear me?
21:22Good girl.
21:24New surf patrol starts next Monday.
