00:01Something for you.
00:03What is it?
00:04A summons.
00:05You've given me no choice.
00:06I'm gonna contest the will.
00:08Rachel, this is Heather McCabe.
00:10She used to work with Dad.
00:11And this is her daughter, Tamsin.
00:14She's our half-sister.
00:16What I want is to leave her here.
00:18I need you to look after her for me.
00:20And maybe you can all get to know each other.
00:21I think it's about time, don't you?
00:23We do want the chance to get to know you.
00:24Of course we do, but...
00:25We're not in a position to say yes to this.
00:28It's a waste of time, I told you.
00:30Hang on.
00:30Tan, what are you doing here?
00:32I thought you guys had already hit the road.
00:33Mum dropped me off.
00:35She's on her way to the retreat.
00:37Sorry.
00:38You're stuck with me.
00:59Hold me in your arms.
01:02Don't let me go.
01:04I want to stay forever.
01:08Close to each day.
01:11Home and away.
01:15So, that was the guided tour.
01:18Yeah.
01:19Um, I might grab a shower if that's alright.
01:22Yeah, absolutely.
01:25Look, it's six weeks.
01:27That's all.
01:28And then Mum will be back and she'll have all of her issues sorted out.
01:31Of course she will, Tamsin.
01:33It's Tam.
01:36I know you guys are as excited about me being here as I am.
01:39Because what has to happen so Mum can get the help she needs.
01:42Tam, it's fine, really.
01:44Well, I want to stay on my own, but Mum wouldn't let me.
01:47So I'm here.
01:49Don't worry.
01:51You can get by without you guys helping.
01:59I can't believe she just left her.
02:03Well, she's obviously more desperate to get help than we thought.
02:06Which is admirable in its own way.
02:08Well, that is if she's actually getting help.
02:10For all we know, we may never see her again.
02:13So?
02:14What are we going to do?
02:15I don't know.
02:16We'll just model our way through, I guess.
02:21So, you're confident this is going to work?
02:24What do you want me to say?
02:25It's up to the magistrate to decide once the case is heard.
02:34Mrs Curtis, do you have any idea of what you're putting your son through?
02:38Hi, Morag.
02:40I have just left him and he's very upset.
02:43So if it's your intention to destroy whatever good will is left between you, you are certainly succeeding.
02:48I'm just doing what I have to do.
02:50Drew's left me no choice.
02:52Oh, well, even though the chances of you winning are about a million to one.
02:55That's your opinion?
02:56The summons has been served.
02:58We're due in court tomorrow.
02:59Nothing else needs to be said.
03:01Well, if your client is not willing to take her son's emotional state into account, a hell of a lot
03:06more needs to be said.
03:07So what are you suggesting?
03:08That we go to mediation and avoid court altogether.
03:12That way at least we can try and come to some sort of civil arrangement and take the pressure off
03:17Drew.
03:18Drew's already made it clear he won't agree to anything.
03:20Well, then it's up to us, isn't it?
03:22He's not taking the idea of going to court very well at all.
03:26Hopefully I can persuade him to attend a mediation and it might also help you realise that going to court
03:31is futile and potentially very expensive for you.
03:35She has a point.
03:37If you want to salvage your relationship with Drew, perhaps this is the way to go about it.
03:41Really?
03:42If you can arrange all the details ASAP, we'll be there.
03:45Fine.
03:47I'll be in touch.
03:51How is a mediation going to help?
03:53If we can convince Drew that there's a chance we'll win in court, then he might be willing to cut
03:57his losses and hand some of that money over you after all.
03:59Whereas a court decision against you means you get nothing and you have to pay costs.
04:04I think it's a reasonable suggestion.
04:08How is mediation going to help us?
04:10I mean, Jaz doesn't deserve that money. What if the mediator says she does?
04:13No, no, no, no. That's not the mediator's role. He or she is only there to assist the parties in
04:19coming to an agreement.
04:20But there's no way Jaz is going to accept that she can't have the money.
04:24Well, if we can convince her that she hasn't got a leg to stand on by going to court, she
04:28has to accept what is agreed to in the mediation.
04:31And what if they can't agree?
04:33Then we go back to court.
04:34Well, let's just put it this way. At least we'll have a few hours to discuss it instead of a
04:38day's protracted hearings.
04:40You wanted this to be over as quickly as possible. This does sound like a solution.
04:47Okay.
04:49Fine. I'll set it up for tomorrow.
05:03What are you doing?
05:05Couldn't sleep.
05:06It's a TV too loud.
05:07Yeah, it is. But more importantly, what are you doing smoking?
05:11You don't mind it.
05:11Besides the fact that it kills you, you're underage.
05:14This place stinks.
05:16Right.
05:17I have to work a double shift tomorrow.
05:19And look, I live with other people here.
05:21Rory doesn't need to see you smoking.
05:22Fine.
05:23I get the point.
05:24Smoke outside.
05:25No, you're not going to be smoking at all.
05:27Right.
05:29I bought you the cigarettes anyway.
05:30Some guy.
05:31What guy?
05:32He was cute.
05:34I bludged a few smokes off him.
05:36Do you know how bad that is for your health?
05:38Come on. I don't need a lecture.
05:39Well, I'll take you down to the hospital and show you people dying of emphysema.
05:42That's real.
05:43Okay.
05:44I get the point.
05:45Turn it down.
05:46You're going to wake this whole house up.
05:48In fact, why don't you turn it off?
05:49It's late.
05:50You should be asleep.
05:52Hey.
05:53Turn it off.
06:05So the mediation's set for today, eh?
06:07Mm-hmm.
06:08I'll call them a few favours.
06:10Well, that sounds like a much better option.
06:12I just want to do what is right for Drew.
06:14And the sooner this unpleasant business has dealt with, the better.
06:17He couldn't have anyone better in his corner, that's for sure.
06:20Good luck with it, eh?
06:21Oh.
06:21Well, thank you, Alfred.
06:23You do know how hot you look in this suit.
06:26Thanks.
06:27Ooh, I thought I liked this scruffy thing you'd perfected, but this?
06:31Ooh.
06:31Taylor.
06:33I'm always trying to make you laugh.
06:34Yeah, I know you are, and I'm grateful for that.
06:36But right now, I just don't think that's possible.
06:39Um, you ready?
06:40Yeah, I guess so.
06:42Look, I'll see you this afternoon, alright?
06:43No, I would say good luck, but with Moirag on your side, you don't need it.
06:46Oh, well, thanks for the word of confidence.
06:49Call me when you're done.
06:50Yeah, alright.
06:51Let's go.
06:52Bye.
06:58What can I get you?
06:59Um, can I have a big breakfast with an OJ and a cappuccino, thanks.
07:05Oh, she's hungry.
07:06You'd be too if you've been living like two-minute noodles.
07:08Oh, well, put the order in.
07:13So, um, I was meaning to talk to you about last night.
07:17Cause you're gonna be staying with me now.
07:19You need to be more considerate of my flatmates, okay?
07:22Didn't I already get this lecture last night?
07:24Well, hang on.
07:25Still hearts and flowers in the big sister department, aren't you?
07:29Damn it, I'm sorry.
07:30This is, it's a huge shock for me.
07:33I get it.
07:34No smoking, no loud TV, whatever.
07:39Over the last ten years, Jacinta Curtis has paid for the upkeep of her mother's estate,
07:45her extensive medical bills, and she did this out of love,
07:48despite the often hurtful manner in which she was treated by her mother.
07:52Now, this is in stark contrast to Drew.
07:55He's never met his grandmother, nor has he shown any interest in doing so.
07:59I'm sorry, does it really matter what the relationship with the deceased was?
08:02Her wishes were spelled out in the will,
08:04and we know for a fact that she was of sound mind when she wrote it.
08:07Ms Bellingham presents a very strong argument.
08:10Come in.
08:12This is Ted Brown.
08:13He was the director of the nursing home in which Mary Pelham spent the last few years of her life.
08:17Um, I'm sorry, it's appropriate.
08:20We were not informed of any witnesses.
08:22It is allowed in the mediation process if both parties agree to hear what Mr Brown has to say.
08:26If you don't, we'll just bring him to court.
08:30It's your choice.
08:40Oh, Rachel.
08:45Uh, I was just looking for Brad.
08:47Uh, he's in a meeting with the debating team at the moment.
08:50Uh, do you know when that will finish?
08:52It just started. It's scheduled to go for an hour.
08:55Damn it.
08:56Is there anything I can help you with?
08:57Uh, that's alright. We'll figure something out.
08:59Rachel, I've told you we don't need a babysitter.
09:02Um, this is, uh, Tam. She's my sister.
09:05Half-sister.
09:06She's gonna be staying with us for a while.
09:08Can't you tell her stoop cheers?
09:10Um, this is Ms Fletcher.
09:12Hi.
09:13Uh, if you could just ask Brad to, uh, give me a call.
09:16I've been put on an extra shift tonight, and I need him to look after Tam.
09:18Look, um, there is a teachers' conference tonight.
09:21I think Brad was planning on being there.
09:23Oh, I completely forgot.
09:24Yeah, if you need somewhere for Tam to wait for him,
09:27she's very welcome at my place.
09:29Rick and Cassie are away at the moment, and it's very quiet.
09:31That's okay, Sally. We'll handle it.
09:33This is stupid.
09:35Why don't you wait outside for me, okay?
09:41Okay, she's only been here one day, and I'm really not coping,
09:44so if you could just get Brad to call me, that would be really good.
09:46Yeah, Rachel, I...
09:48I know that you're still angry with me about the wedding.
09:51You've got every right to be.
09:53Wouldn't it be nice for us to just put this whole thing behind us?
09:57Like I said, I'm very happy to help.
10:02At first, the change in Mary was very subtle,
10:05and then as time wore on, she became withdrawn, forgetful,
10:10unable to do everyday tasks.
10:12Her personality changed.
10:14She became suspicious and fearful of everyone,
10:17including her own daughter.
10:19Sometimes even aggressive.
10:20I'm sorry, that's not proof.
10:22It's just hearsay.
10:25Medical reports.
10:26The date she was transferred to the dementia ward.
10:30Very well.
10:31Continue.
10:33In my opinion, she was definitely not of sound mind and body
10:38when she penned the will that's now in contention.
10:40I believe that should be taken into account
10:42when considering the legality of this will.
10:46In your opinion.
10:48Oh, so now you're an expert, are you?
10:50I thought you just managed the nursing home.
10:53I've managed this nursing home, Miss Bellingham, for over 20 years.
10:57I consider the residents my friends.
11:00Mary Pallum was my friend.
11:02And her decline was a terrible thing to witness.
11:12It's only going to be for a few hours this afternoon.
11:14Sally's going to come by and pick her up.
11:15I've actually got a free period this afternoon,
11:17and I was hoping to do some study.
11:18Oh, you can still study.
11:20You know, she doesn't need to be entertained.
11:21She can just hang out and watch TV.
11:25Oh, okay.
11:25As long as it's only for a few hours.
11:27Thank you so much for your advice.
11:28Tan, I'll see you a bit later, okay?
11:30You sure don't want to palm you up to someone else?
11:32I'm going to give you a call, alright?
11:34I would have thought you'd microchipped me or something.
11:37Hey, I was thinking,
11:38maybe I should get a mobile or something,
11:39so you can keep tabs.
11:40Oh, nice try.
11:41No, I'll see you a bit later, alright?
11:43Maddie, if you need me, just call the hospital.
11:51Sorry.
11:52It's all right, everybody.
11:55We're just about on time.
11:56You'll be able to catch the bus,
11:57so long as we don't have any more interruptions.
11:59Okay, so you haven't got time at all.
12:00Eat, eat.
12:12Hi.
12:13Oh, hi.
12:14How was the debate?
12:17Yeah, it went well.
12:20Look, I wanted to talk about what happened yesterday.
12:23I shouldn't have let fly in public like that.
12:25Oh, that's okay.
12:27I know you've got a lot on your plate,
12:28especially now with Tam staying on.
12:30You know about that?
12:32Yeah, oh, Rachel dropped in to see you.
12:33Did she manage to get a hold of you?
12:35No.
12:36Okay.
12:37Oh, well, she asked if you could call her as soon as possible.
12:39She's been calling to work tonight.
12:41Right.
12:41Well, I'll give her a call.
12:43Yeah, actually, I offered to take Tam tonight
12:45if she hasn't organised an alternative.
12:48What?
12:49Well, Rachel was in a bind.
12:51I knew that you were busy tonight, so I'm happy to help.
12:53I thought I made myself clear that my life,
12:55my personal business does not concern you.
12:57Brad, please.
12:58No.
12:59This is your way to try and prove that you're that good old
13:02dependable cell that everybody knows and loves.
13:04But you're wasting your time because that person does not
13:06exist for me anymore.
13:08If you don't want my help, you just have to say no thanks.
13:11No, I don't want your help.
13:12With Tam or Rachel or anything to do with my family.
13:22Hungry?
13:23Yeah.
13:25So, um, your dad was married to Rachel's mum?
13:30Yeah.
13:31He had an affair with my mum and what do you know?
13:33Here I am.
13:34Did you know your dad?
13:37Met him once.
13:38He didn't want to borrow me.
13:40He left because of something dodgy he did as a doctor.
13:43And mum, she's a gambler.
13:47Sounds tough.
13:48It's not that bad.
13:50However, she's cool.
13:51She's just a bit messed up.
13:53It sucks being broke, but I like hanging out at pubs.
13:57I mean, I get to meet heaps of cute guys and I know every
13:59single pub in the whole district.
14:01And the bartenders?
14:02They give me free drinks and ciggies.
14:04It's awesome.
14:06Really, that sounds awful.
14:09What?
14:10I'm free to do what I want.
14:12Meet cute guys, hang out all night.
14:14Yeah, but you're just a kid.
14:16My life's just fine, thanks.
14:17You don't know anything about it.
14:20Yeah, of course.
14:21I'm sorry.
14:23It must be good, though, having Rachel and Brad.
14:26Yeah.
14:26So good that they didn't even want me when I first turned up.
14:31I'm sorry.
14:33I don't need this.
14:36Tam, where are you going?
14:37Leave me alone.
14:41All the documents appear to support the evidence given by Mr Brown.
14:45Do you concur, Miss Bellingham?
14:47Well, these are only copies.
14:48But at first glance, it does appear the deceased had a history of dementia at the time the will
14:52was signed, yes.
14:53Drew, would you like to have a look at the documents?
14:56No, thanks.
14:57However, this doesn't mean that my client is not the main beneficiary of a will dated prior
15:01to the onset of the dementia.
15:03Well, this is a will dated some five years earlier in which Mary Pelham bequeathed her entire estate to Jacinta
15:09Curtis.
15:24Hey, how'd it go?
15:26Not good.
15:27Whoa, whoa, whoa.
15:27What happened?
15:28The director of the nursing home showed up and said she'd basically lost her marbles when she wrote the will.
15:33What? Since when?
15:34He had the medical records to prove it.
15:37Okay, why did this only come up just now?
15:39That's what I'd like to know.
15:43Why don't you tell me about your mother, how sick she was?
15:46Well, I paid the nursing home bills, but I hadn't seen her for about two years.
15:50It was only when I had a conversation with the nursing home director last week I realised how bad she'd
15:54got.
15:55Besides, I didn't think that'd stop you.
15:58That's because you think you know how I operate, but I'm nothing like you.
16:03Well, you got what you wanted, you got all that money.
16:06Hope you're happy.
16:11I know that there are privacy issues, but...
16:15No, I'm not family.
16:17Okay, if Heather is there, could you please just let her know that leaving her daughter for us to take
16:22care of was really not appropriate.
16:25Okay, thank you.
16:27I just caught about ten retreats in the state.
16:30Heather is either not there or she's gone into hiding.
16:33What's the matter?
16:35Listen, if Sal asks to look after Tam again, can you just say no, please?
16:38I tried to say no, I didn't have another option.
16:40Well, we're going to have to find one because I just cancelled Sal.
16:43I was just trying to figure out how we can make sure Tam is properly looked after, that's all.
16:47It's not going to be easy, but we can do this.
16:49We're not totally dysfunctional, not yet anyway.
16:53It's Maddie, she's supposed to be looking after Tam.
16:56Maddie?
16:58It's the second time in as many days he's got stuck into me.
17:01I should have learnt my lesson.
17:03He tried to shut me out yesterday and I kept pushing and...
17:07Now he just thinks that I'm trying to use Tam to get closer to him.
17:12I'm guessing the way I am.
17:14I just miss him, Leah.
17:16Yeah, I know you do.
17:18I've got to face the facts though, I'm not part of his life anymore.
17:21Or Rachel's.
17:23Sal, look, I know this sounds lame, but you really have to give it more time.
17:27Yeah, I know.
17:28It just feels like forever, that's all.
17:31Everything's turned into before and after, you know?
17:36I'm so sorry, I've looked everywhere for her.
17:38That's right, she kind of got far.
17:40Is there a chance that she could have gone looking for her mum?
17:42I don't know.
17:46Tam, where have you been?
17:48Out.
17:49You were supposed to wait here with Matilda.
17:51Matilda's supposed to be studying and...
17:54I might just go if that's okay.
17:56Yeah, yeah.
17:56Thank you, Maddy.
17:57I'm so sorry.
18:04Hey, where are you going?
18:05I'm leaving. It's a bad idea.
18:06No, you are not.
18:07Thank you, Tam. Come on.
18:12Call the social worker or whatever you have to do.
18:15Stay in some youth hostel or something.
18:16Tam, that is not what we want.
18:18I don't care what you want!
18:20Tam, what we want is to support you.
18:22But this is a huge shock for all three of us and we need to try to work together.
18:27And if your mum's out there and she's trying to make herself better,
18:29she needs to know that you're here and that you're safe.
18:33What do you mean, if?
18:38You think my mum's just left me here?
18:40It's not what I said.
18:42She's a good person. She wouldn't...
18:45She wouldn't do that.
18:51It's alright for you.
18:54You've got everything.
18:56You've got money.
18:58Friends.
19:04Some people don't have anything.
19:06Oh, Tam, I...
19:11I didn't ask her to leave me here, okay?
19:14He knows that.
19:16She needs help.
19:20She was crying.
19:23I couldn't stop her.
19:30He thought you guys would wake up and realise that we needed help.
19:40You don't care.
19:41Oh, Tam, that's not true. Tam.
19:52I want my mum.
19:54I don't...
19:57It's...
20:00No, I don't...
20:01No, I don't...
20:03Hey...
20:05It's okay.
20:07It's okay.
20:10It's okay.
20:10It's okay.
20:13I know.
20:14It's okay.
20:20All right.
20:24Yeah.
20:28Fair enough.
20:33So...
20:34over lesson,
20:39Be disappointed.
20:41I don't know.
21:14No, darling, you just start without me, all right?
21:17Just make sure you save me some, okay?
21:18I'll see you later.
21:21Oi, where have you been?
21:22I just went for a walk with you.
21:23Yeah, well, I just told Belle you were on your way home for dinner.
21:27I'll go now then.
21:28Mm-hmm.
21:29Hey, how was the city love?
21:31Why were you talking to that guy out there?
21:33You don't have to worry.
21:34You gave him something, what was it?
21:36Excuse me, are we by any chance talking about Jonah Abraham here?
21:40I know I said I wouldn't go near him, but I've been really worried about Pop.
21:44I just gave him a letter to pass on, that's all.
21:47Please don't be mad at me.
21:48What's Jonah got to do with your Pop?
21:49His name's Michael.
21:50No, it's Jonah.
21:52What's going on?
21:53He was supposed to be gone by the time I got back.
21:55Look, love, I think there's a few things we need to fill you in on, okay?
21:58But he promised to help patch things up with Pop.
22:00You know what?
22:00I think we'll continue this conversation with your grandfather present.
22:03You, girly, pack up and wait.
22:05I'm going to see if Jackie will drive you home.
22:11Hey, about time.
22:13Irene told me you were going to be home 15 minutes ago.
22:16Yeah, sorry.
22:17It's okay.
22:19Are you alright?
22:21Irene must have talked to me when she gets home.
22:23Oh, little girl, you're in trouble.
22:27Were you guys around when Tasha was caught up with the believers?
22:31Uh, yeah, I was, um, towards the end.
22:34Irene won't tell me what Michael or Jonah or whatever his name is actually did to her or Martha.
22:40What, if no one tells me, then how am I meant to make my own mind up about him?
22:45Trust me, it wasn't good.
22:46Not good like lying or stealing?
22:49No, not good like having a baby with Tash against her will.
22:57He...
22:57You know what?
22:58You should just ask Irene.
23:00Well, maybe he has changed.
23:02Look, Annie, sometimes people change, sometimes they don't.
23:07I can't believe this is happening.
23:08Yeah, well, love, it is.
23:10I'm afraid that old cute Bruce Campbell's letting it.
23:13Does he actually know what Jonah went to prison for?
23:15Yeah.
23:16And we've told Annie to steer clear of him as well.
23:18The trouble is, she doesn't want to believe it, does she?
23:20Because Jonah's living out at the front.
23:22G'day, love.
23:23Good to see you back.
23:24Yeah, I wish I could say the same.
23:25Oh, I take it you've told her what's going on.
23:28Yeah, well, there's an update, actually.
23:30Annie's been sneaking around behind me back, having contact with Jonah again.
23:34Ah, the flaming mongrel.
23:36Are you all right, love?
23:37I guess I was kidding myself.
23:39I thought he'd be gone by the time I got back.
23:41Love, he ain't going anywhere in a hurry, all right?
23:44That's why we have to do something ourselves.
23:46What have you got in mind?
23:48I say, we call a town meeting.
23:51We let everyone know he's back, and anyone who's not aware of his history, we fill them
23:54in on that as well.
23:55A town meeting?
23:56It's going a bit over the top, isn't it?
23:58If Annie's fallen for his bull, then other vulnerable kids will as well.
24:02Yeah, we have to warn them.
24:03Exactly, and sooner rather than later.
24:05The trouble is, we haven't got a venue, Alf.
24:09Yeah, all right, you can have this joint, but it'll have to be either tomorrow or towards
24:12the end of next week.
24:12We've got a fair bit of stuff booked in.
24:14Oh, tomorrow would be good.
24:15Is that going to give you enough time to round people up?
24:17Oh, don't you worry about that.
24:18I bet I'm one step ahead of you, Dale.
24:25President's Information and Awareness Meeting to discuss the return to the area of one of
24:30the main members of the Believer's Cult.
24:32It's certainly hard to miss.
24:34Yeah, well, they gave us the space for free, too, because it was a community service announcement.
24:39Well, we're not the only ones with a reason to worry.
24:41The editor's niece brings friends from a charity, too.
24:44Couldn't this be considered a little slanderous?
24:47That's what worries me, love.
24:48We don't want to give them ammunition to fire back at us.
24:52Mind you, with a bit of luck, he might get the message and shoot through.
24:54Mm, and with a bit more luck, Bruce will see sense as well.
24:58I don't care about protecting myself legally.
25:00The point is, the more visible we make it that Jonah's back in town, the less likely he's
25:04got to lure him girls back to that farm.
25:08Well, what else did you say on the phone?
25:10Just that her digging's definitely shedding a light on the situation.
25:13Please.
25:14Do you have any idea why Maura asked for this meeting?
25:17Ask her yourself.
25:20So what's going on?
25:21You could have just couriered the papers over to us.
25:23Oh, I have a much better idea.
25:26Why don't you tell us what you were doing yesterday after the mediation?
25:31I'm sorry?
25:32Well, simply put, what were you and Mr. Brown doing in a motel room?
25:36Who's Mr. Brown?
25:37He's the director from the nursing home.
25:39I don't know what you're talking about.
25:41Oh, I think you do.
25:42I saw you both.
25:44All right.
25:45If you must know, not that it's any of your business, I wanted to thank him.
25:51After the way he treated my mother, it was the least I could do.
25:54Well, it seemed a lot more intimate than that to me.
25:57So, as Drew's lawyer, I took it upon myself to call the nursing home to verify your claims.
26:02And imagine my surprise.
26:05I was told that Mrs. Pelham had never been transferred to the dementia wing.
26:11In fact, your mother had never even been diagnosed, let alone treated for dementia before she died.
26:16What?
26:17She was of sound mind when she signed the will, so it is still legally binding.
26:22Mum?
26:25You slept with that guy, didn't you?
26:26You slept with him so that he would lie for you, didn't you?
26:29No, it wasn't like that.
26:31Well, I actually have Mrs. Pelham's real medical records here, so I think we can consider the matter resolved, don't
26:38you?
26:39Drew.
26:52Drew, wait!
26:58Yesterday, before the mediation, even when I thought things were going to go my way, I still felt bad.
27:03I know you did.
27:04And what was Mum doing?
27:05She was too busy setting up the guy from the nursing home so she could do me over again.
27:08I mean, was she planning on doing that in court as well?
27:11I don't know, it sounds hard to get me.
27:13Ten minutes ago, I didn't think I could feel any worse, but now I do.
27:16And that makes me such an idiot because I...
27:18But why, because you still care about her?
27:20No, I don't, not anymore.
27:22I was stupid enough to let her back into my life, but I'm not going to make that same mistake
27:25again.
27:26Drew.
27:26Taylor, I mean it, okay?
27:27She screwed me over for the last time.
27:41You told me you were going to pay the guy to go along with it, but you never intended to
27:45give him money, did you?
27:47What makes you so sure she's telling the truth?
27:50Well, you slept with me.
27:51I'm helping you.
27:53That's different.
27:54You and I, we were something more than that.
28:00Okay, Ted had always liked me.
28:02It just seemed like we could help each other out.
28:05It was nothing.
28:06Quit while you're behind, because I certainly am.
28:08Ted, it doesn't have to be like this.
28:10It didn't.
28:12Okay, past tense.
28:13I had a wife.
28:14You had a son.
28:28You know, I should report him for professional misconduct.
28:32Don't.
28:33It's not his fault.
28:34Well, for once, I'm inclined to agree with you.
28:36This is what, so after all, you're doing.
28:39Actually, Morag, this mess that we're in is your fault.
28:44I beg your pardon?
28:46Yes.
28:47I wanted some of what was rightfully mine, and I was willing to go to great lengths to get it.
28:53I'm not denying that.
28:55But more than anything, I wanted a relationship with my son, and I'm pretty sure he wanted one with me
29:02too.
29:03You think he delivered justice?
29:07All you've done is destroy a family.
29:16What was that all about?
29:20Never mind.
29:22What's done is done.
29:24Well, don't let him get to you, Morag.
29:26The die's not over yet.
29:28Oh.
29:30This is the check.
29:31Okay, it's signed over to you, but it's the last time that I can do it.
29:34Your pop says you need to get the school fees waived next time, okay?
29:37This isn't enough.
29:38I'm sorry.
29:39Okay, I did my best.
29:40What about my school books and uniforms and everything for next year?
29:42Annie, I'm sorry.
29:43I've got to go, okay?
29:44I don't want to be seen here.
29:45This is...
29:46If you've got nothing to hide, then why does it worry you what they think?
29:50Well, this kind of thing doesn't help.
29:52Oh, my gosh.
29:54I swear I didn't have anything to do with it.
29:55No, I know.
29:56I'm pretty sure Irene's responsible.
29:58I'm just hoping your grandad hasn't seen it yet.
30:00No, he'll be furious.
30:03I've already tried telling them that you're not Jonah anymore, you're Michael, but no-one
30:07will listen to me.
30:09Okay.
30:10Thanks anyway.
30:12Next time you see Pop, can you tell him why I said hi?
30:15Yeah, sure.
30:16Thanks.
30:17I'll see you later, okay?
30:18Okay.
30:21What was he doing here?
30:23He just came to give me something from Pop, I thought.
30:25Was he filling your head with stuff about the believers?
30:28Michael hasn't said anything like that to me.
30:30Michael.
30:32He's been to jail, so maybe he has on his lesson.
30:35And Reverend Hall says that all sinners can be saved.
30:38Look, I don't want to put down your ideas or anything, but he is not someone that you
30:41should be encouraging.
30:46I told her he can't be trusted, but she's kind of scarily out there already, though.
30:51I mean, Annie's perfect for her because she's got that whole forgiveness thing going on.
30:54Yeah, you're not wrong there, love.
30:55She's such an idealist.
30:57It's terrifying, though.
30:58I can't believe he had the gall to turn up on the school grounds.
31:01I mean, where were the flippin' teachers?
31:03Oh, my God.
31:04How are we going to get through to these kids that he cannot be trusted?
31:09Sal, did you know that Jonah was at the school today?
31:12Really?
31:12None of the teachers reported a disturbance?
31:15That's because he's as connivant as a sewer rat.
31:17Plenty of kids saw him.
31:19I guess I just didn't know who he was.
31:20No, well, we can't count on him to read the paper.
31:22We have to do something.
31:24Cominsale, you heard what he did to me.
31:26Yeah, I know.
31:26So how are you going to feel if he comes onto school grounds and does the same thing to one
31:29of the kids?
31:30Oh, well, obviously, I don't want anyone getting involved with him.
31:33And I agree, he shouldn't be at the school.
31:34But unless I catch him in the act, there's nothing I can do about it.
31:38And he's convinced that he's trying to help her grandad.
31:40More like he's trying to push him into an early grave so he can steal the damn farm and set
31:44up his own commune.
31:45You said you spoke to Bruce.
31:47Yeah, in one ear, out the other.
31:48Well, I'll force him to listen.
31:50Good luck.
31:53Have you seen the paper today?
31:56No.
31:57I asked the nurse for it hours ago.
32:00You know, Mr Campbell, if the doctors say that you should stay another night, you really should listen.
32:04No, the quacks are just after the money.
32:06You know, I can take care of the farm.
32:08I appreciate your loyalty, Michael, but the best thing for my ticker is fresh air and hard work.
32:14Okay.
32:16We'll get going.
32:19You know, if you're looking for something to read,
32:21maybe you should read Annie's letter.
32:26Hey, Matthew, chapter 7, verse 8, you know it?
32:31Um.
32:32He who asks receives.
32:35To him who knocks, the door shall open.
32:38That's me, Michael.
32:39You see, I asked the Lord,
32:41and he sent you in my hour of need.
32:45The future of the farm is in your hands now.
32:48Mr Campbell, I won't let you down.
32:51Time for your meds.
32:53Come on, let's get back into bed.
32:55I'll come back later, okay?
32:57Where's my paper?
32:58I'll get that for you.
32:59No, I won't.
33:00No, I'll get it.
33:01No, I'll get it.
33:19Is there any point?
33:21Is there any point?
33:22For what it's worth, it was never my intention to just take the money and run off.
33:28I'd always planned for us to share it, Drew.
33:30Yeah, I really got that impression when you wheeled in your star witness at the mediation.
33:35Point taken.
33:36I can see now how I allowed my anger with my mother to stop me from seeing what I was
33:42doing to you.
33:42Give her a rest.
33:43I'm not interested in hearing how sorry you are.
33:46Okay.
33:47But money aside, and I mean this, I still want us to have a relationship.
33:52Right.
33:52But, so, what's the plan?
33:55Suck me back in, tell me that you care about me, and in three months' time hit me up for
33:59a loan, is that it?
33:59No.
34:00No, wait, wait, wait.
34:00I left a few things out.
34:01In the meanwhile, you try and get me to believe your warped ideas on life, you play games with me
34:05and my girlfriend, and you hit on my mate's dad's.
34:07That's not fair, Drew.
34:08Oh, give up!
34:09You've lost the money, and you've lost me.
34:11I'm still your mother.
34:13No.
34:13I would love to have a mother, but instead I have you.
34:17A person who lies and cheats and uses sex to get what she wants.
34:21There's a word for women like you...
34:23No!
34:26Drew, I'm so sorry.
34:28Just leave.
34:30Leave, now.
34:43He's determined to check himself out.
34:45Yeah, as far as I know, there's no-one coming to pick him up.
34:48Hey!
34:48Doctor, I've tried, but...
34:49What's the whole...
34:50I want to go.
34:53What's this?
34:54What's this picture in here?
34:55There's a town meeting, but it's nothing to get worked up about, Mr. Campbell.
34:58You get hold of that, Doctor.
34:59You tell him if he doesn't give me my discharge papers in five minutes, I'm going to walk out of
35:03here.
35:09You should have heard the way Jonah was talking to Bruce.
35:11And wrapped around his little finger, I'll bet.
35:14Yeah, I wanted to say something, but then the nurse hawked him.
35:17Well, I think you did the right thing shutting up, love.
35:48Well, you know what?
35:49Getting the fears out of Pop, I asked him to, and I said to bring him to school, so he
35:53wasn't doing anything wrong.
35:54Well, nevertheless, we would prefer it if he wasn't on school grounds, Annie.
35:57Yeah.
35:58And could you kindly pass that on to your brother, please?
36:01Have you told all your people to bring their own pitchforks?
36:04Oh, don't you start out.
36:06This meeting is about awareness.
36:07It is not a witch hunt.
36:11Pop, are you even allowed to be out of hospital?
36:13Which one of you is responsible for this, Mac?
36:15I am.
36:16You got a problem?
36:18Yeah, pull up a chair.
36:19You might learn a thing or two.
36:20Just a slander.
36:21Now, you call off this meeting, or I'm going to call the police.
36:24The police are just waiting for a reason to arrest that bloke.
36:27Don't you care that Jonah's manipulating your granddaughter?
36:30His name is Michael, and he's a good man.
36:34And I won't have my employees' names dragged through the mud.
36:38If anybody's manipulating Annie, it's you, Mom.
36:41Look, if you don't believe us, talk to the cops.
36:44Do some research.
36:46I can't believe you're risking your own flesh and blood.
36:49Don't you talk to me about flesh and blood.
36:52She's only with you because I said so.
36:54Yeah, and I'm doing a damn-side better job protecting her than you are.
36:58Well, you won't leave her much longer if this meeting goes ahead.
37:01You wouldn't.
37:02But you have made it perfectly clear you don't want her or care about her.
37:06Well, you try, mate.
37:08You're not a legal guardian.
37:10She's only here on my side, so if I wanted her to come home, you mark my word.
37:15She'll be home just like that.
37:17I don't believe this.
37:19You're using Annie to blackmail me in the ditch in this meeting.
37:22Well, you can call it what you like.
37:25The choice is yours.
37:26Oi, Martha.
37:28So what's it going to be?
37:34I have received a fax from your mother's solicitor.
37:38Here we go.
37:39What, she's got another witness, right?
37:40Somebody else you slept with?
37:42Oh, no, on the contrary.
37:43It states that she has relinquished all further claims on your grandmother's estate.
37:48Well, so she can't take Drew to court even if she changes her mind?
37:52Correct.
37:53And now probate has been granted.
37:56All you need to do is to give me your bank account number so I can deposit the funds.
38:00Um, what you do with the rest of the estate is, of course, up to you.
38:05But when you've liquefied the assets, which I'm sure you will, you need to think about how you're going to
38:10invest the money, Drew.
38:11But I'm sure Dan and Leah will be able to help you with that.
38:13But, um...
38:17Drew?
38:18Um, yeah, right, thanks.
38:20I'll get back to you about it.
38:22Fine.
38:23I'll leave you to it.
38:27Hey, Morag.
38:30Thanks for everything.
38:32You're welcome.
38:33Wish I could say it had been a pleasure.
38:48Hey, what are you doing?
38:49Get away from there!
38:52Martha!
38:54Martha, wait!
38:56Martha!
38:58Martha!
38:59It's okay!
38:59I'm not going to hurt you!
39:00Let go of me!
39:00I'm not going to hurt you!
39:04Martha!
39:07Martha!
39:08Martha!
39:10Help!
39:13Help!
39:14Help!
39:23Martha!
39:25Martha!
39:25I just want to talk to you!
39:27Martha!
39:30I had to say it, but that didn't sound like an idle threat to me.
39:35Some choice.
39:36Some choice.
39:36Letting Jonah off scot-free or risk losing Annie.
39:39There are other ways we can get the message out to the community.
39:43Yeah.
39:43Well, I know you'd never let Michael on the farm unless you thought he was a really good person.
39:49Of course I wouldn't.
39:51But you don't have to worry about me either.
39:55Irene's taking really good care of me.
39:58Anyway, where the heck's Martha?
40:00She should be part of this decision.
40:02Martha!
40:05Martha!
40:06I'm not going to hurt you!
40:08Martha, I'm not going to hurt you!
40:15What's going on?
40:16Is the meeting happening or not?
40:18Oh, God.
40:19He won't even look at her.
40:21Who am I supposed to send her back to that?
40:25You're making the right decision, Irene.
40:33Sorry, everyone.
40:34Can I have your attention, please?
40:37Due to unforeseen circumstances, we're going to have to ditch the meeting.
40:42Sorry.
40:45Pop.
40:46Pop.
40:56Martha, stop.
40:57Listen to me.
40:59Martha!
41:02Martha!
41:04Martha, do it.
41:05It's dangerous.
41:10Martha!
41:18Please, somebody!
