00:01I decided I want to hold a memorial here for Dan before Vijay and I go to the funeral.
00:06I'm fine.
00:07Look, this isn't my idea of fun either, okay?
00:09But you're too messy to leave alone.
00:10I saw her swipe the bottle of booze from the back of the delivery truck.
00:13Next thing, I found her totally out of it.
00:15It's gonna be okay.
00:16What's going on?
00:17Rachel!
00:18You're suffering from alcohol poisoning.
00:21Aiden said he found you drinking.
00:22Is that true?
00:23I don't remember.
00:24She got herself wasted and I was down on the beach trying to help her.
00:27Now, everyone wants my head.
00:40Annie.
00:42Annie!
00:42What?
00:44You're not even listening to me.
00:46Yes, I am.
00:47What did I just say then?
00:49You said that Mr Fletcher wants to speak with me so I should go to the hospital.
00:52See?
00:53Yeah, well her mum keeps asking me about it.
00:54It's getting kind of annoying.
00:55I just don't want to go, okay?
00:57Why not?
00:57Look, you don't even know what she's gonna talk to you about.
00:59Because she's just gonna speak about the same stuff as you do.
01:03Don't blame God.
01:03It's all gonna be fine.
01:06Well, Geoff, it's not.
01:09Look, if God can do anything then why didn't you save Mr Becker?
01:15Look, Annie.
01:21Oh dear, another one bites the dust.
01:24Sorry?
01:25Oh, Geoff's umpteenth attempted getting through to Annie.
01:29Maybe that's the trouble.
01:30What?
01:30Too much trying.
01:31The same noise becomes a blur after a while.
01:33So what?
01:34You reckon he should just give up?
01:35Well, someone else should have a go.
01:36Well, I have been bashing my head against that little brick wall for days now.
01:40And she flatly refuses to see Sally.
01:43Oh, she's probably embarrassed about the whole booze and Aiden thing.
01:46If it were just that, mate, I wouldn't be so worried.
01:48And if she's not believing in God, the last thing people should be doing is going on about
01:52him.
01:52Oh, I see.
01:53So what?
01:54You're suddenly a wizard dealing with kids now, are you?
01:56Actually, I'm anything but.
01:58Well, I'm glad to hear you're not an expert at absolutely everything.
02:01I'm just trying to say, maybe she'll open up easier to an outsider.
02:04That's all.
02:05Well, if you want to have a go, Darl, go for it.
02:08No, I'm serious.
02:09I can chop strawberries.
02:10Go on.
02:10You go.
02:12And if you're successful, I'll shout your free feed.
02:15Oh, I'll do that.
02:18You see it?
02:19One, put the kids on!
02:21Oh, oh!
02:25Oh, oh, oh!
02:26Oh, what do you call that?
02:31Hey, Annie!
02:34She's got a lot on her mind at the moment, mate.
02:37Kids at school reckon now you've got her drunk.
02:39Yeah, well, kids reckon a lot of things doesn't mean it's true.
02:42Well, something's got to be wrong cause she's hardly talking to me in days.
02:47You don't reckon Aidan, he didn't hurt her or anything, did he?
02:52No, I'm sure she's fine.
02:58Hey.
03:01I've been wanting to talk to you.
03:02I don't want to talk to you.
03:04So you're cool with me getting hassled by the cops or something I didn't do?
03:07It's not my fault. I told them that I didn't remember anything.
03:09That's cool, that's cool.
03:11I've been so drunk I've forgotten plenty of things heaps of times.
03:14Right, but in the end it always comes back.
03:17You need to tell them.
03:19Alright, because I didn't do anything wrong and I think we both know that.
03:22This is my neck on the line here.
03:25But there is no way that this is fair.
03:27Everyone says that you're the one who gave me the alcohol.
03:29You stole the booze, Annie.
03:31You've got to be able to remember that, you weren't even drunk then.
03:34I really don't remember.
03:35I was trying to help you.
03:37Okay.
03:39I've got the cops all over me.
03:41It's not my fault.
03:41It is your fault though, because now I'm totally screwed.
03:45If it wasn't for Mrs Bellingham, you know, wanting to jump my bones, then I would have no one on
03:49my side.
03:49Disgusting.
03:50Why do you have to be so horrible?
03:52Look, I'm not the one trying to stuff up somebody else's life, am I?
03:54Even the people who are trying to help you?
03:56Annie, I was trying to help you.
03:57I mean to everyone.
04:01Look, it's simple, okay?
04:03You got drunk and I was trying to bring you around.
04:07All you need to do to get the cops off my back is remember.
04:12Unless you've already remembered and you're trying to stitch me up.
04:16Hey.
04:17Just make him go away.
04:19I'm just trying to get her to tell the truth, okay?
04:21So putting pressure on her is hardly the smart way to get her to do that.
04:24Do yourself a favour, mate, and stay away from Annie, at least until you saw this mess out.
04:28I'm being blamed for something that I didn't do.
04:30Okay, how's that meant to be fair, huh?
04:38Good day, love.
04:39Everything under control?
04:40Yeah.
04:41You got on to Rick and Cassie yet?
04:43Yeah, I'm driving up tomorrow.
04:45Sally wanted me to go speak to them personally because she's worried how Cassie will take the news.
04:49Yeah, well, after everything that Dan did for Cassie, she'll probably need a shoulder.
04:55Hey, sorry I took so long.
04:56I only just checked my messages.
04:57What's up?
04:58Uh, what are you doing tomorrow?
05:00Why?
05:01Well, I have to go tell Rick and Cassie about Dan.
05:03I was hoping you'd come with me.
05:05I could really do with the support.
05:08Cassie doesn't even know that Sally's been hurt.
05:10So stupid, we should have told her.
05:12Yeah, I know that, and on top of that, I need to tell her that Sally knows she's pregnant.
05:16Look, I'd really like to help, but isn't it complicated enough without adding me and Rick to it?
05:19Well, obviously you're worried about him, and I bet he's been thinking about you too,
05:22so it's a good excuse for you guys to see each other.
05:25We didn't need an excuse once.
05:27See, this was complicated.
05:28I really think it would be easier without me.
05:30What if I beg?
05:32Well, if you change your mind, meet me here at ten.
05:35Look, this may sound like emotional blackmail, but Rick's going to take this just as hard
05:40as Cassie.
05:41I think he'll really need you.
05:43It does sound a bit like emotional blackmail.
06:03I'm not going to say anything.
06:05Too late.
06:06Too late.
06:06You just did.
06:09You're just going to say what everyone else said, right?
06:12Like?
06:13Believe me, I get enough from Jeff.
06:16Well, why would I bother repeating what he was going to say then?
06:19I was just going to say, it's a shocking smell.
06:22That's what I remember.
06:24Really bad.
06:26What?
06:27Throwing up after drinking.
06:32That's all I was going to say.
06:35That's all you wanted to say?
06:37Yep.
06:39Because we've all been there, you know?
06:41Even if we pretend like we haven't, because we've got to be the big wise adults who've never
06:45done stupid kid stuff.
06:47The thing is, we've all been kids once.
06:49So we've all done it.
06:53How old were you?
06:54Ten.
06:55Ten.
06:57I was an early starter.
07:00Did everyone know?
07:02I was lucky on that score.
07:04My dad found me.
07:05And I remember him holding my head and telling me to get it all out.
07:08He kicked my butt at the time, but afterwards he was pretty good.
07:15What?
07:17I remember.
07:18What happened with Aidan?
07:26You're not welcome here, I told you.
07:28Yeah, well that was last week, sweetheart.
07:29You're still not welcome.
07:31Tough, okay?
07:39Aidan?
07:41No, she doesn't waste the time, does she?
07:43Aidan's got her memory back.
07:44She just made a statement.
07:46It's about time.
07:48Aidan Jeffries, I'm charging you with supplying alcohol to a minor in sexual assault.
08:01It's a little cow stitching me up.
08:03I got there the first time you told me, Aidan.
08:05And the following ten as well.
08:08I left my bag in here.
08:11Is this it?
08:12Yeah, better all be that.
08:13I'll just go.
08:15So what now?
08:17Um, Magistress Court.
08:47I will call you with the date and the time.
08:49We'll have a long chat later on.
08:52But in the meantime, if you want anything else, just give us a yell, okay?
09:00Well, looks like I owe you that feed.
09:02Why?
09:03Annie's still down about everything.
09:05Yeah, but at least you helped her remember what happened.
09:07And now that the cops are involved, they can wipe that smarmy grin off Aidan Jeffries' dial.
09:12Yeah, I don't think it's that simple.
09:15What is that supposed to mean?
09:17Well, when Annie opened up to me about everything, it came out of the blue in this big rush.
09:22And Aidan bought her the alcohol, got her drunk and then tried to kiss her.
09:25So I said, why don't we get the police involved?
09:27And that's when she shut down.
09:29Yeah, well, she's a little kid.
09:30It's a lot for her to get her head around.
09:32Yeah, sure.
09:32But by the time she got to the station, Lara reckoned it was like pulling teeth.
09:38Look, if you're saying she's lying, you're wrong.
09:39She wouldn't lie about something like that.
09:42She's not the sort of kid to dislike God a few weeks ago either.
09:45Kids change.
09:47Even so, she's got no reason to lie.
09:50You don't think she hates Aidan enough to drop him in it?
09:53Look, I'm not saying that's what she's done, but think about the alternative.
09:57She's been having a rough time for a while now.
09:59She was upset.
10:00She got a hold of the booze and she got drunk.
10:02And if you were Annie, you wouldn't want to admit to that, would you?
10:07No, you're wrong.
10:08She wouldn't lie.
10:09Not about something like this.
10:10She wouldn't.
10:12It's just a poison drug.
10:21It's just a poison drug.
10:26It's just a poison drug.
10:30It's just a poison drug.
10:31It's just a poison drug.
10:32This is wonderful.
10:34What is?
10:36This, just nothing. Just lying here and thinking of nothing.
10:43What's the point? Just relax.
10:46I guess we do have to go back eventually.
10:49No, that'd be stupid.
10:52Let's stay till our money runs out.
10:54Yeah, that's a good idea.
11:04Thanks.
11:05I was gonna chug it.
11:07You and your girlfriend are welcome to join us if you like.
11:10Oh, Cass, she's just a friend.
11:14Good to know.
11:16Like I said, just join in whenever you like.
11:23Hey, I was wondering if we wanted to join in.
11:27Um, no, it's okay. I'm happy just sitting here. You go.
11:30You sure?
11:30Yeah.
11:43You look left out.
11:46And I need a, I need a rest.
11:50Name's Carl.
11:55Don't worry about Carl. He's, he's one of the good guys.
12:03Uh, Martha's set to wait. She's just making a pit stop before you hit the road.
12:06I'm not sure if I'm going.
12:08Oh, of course you are.
12:09Thank you, Grandad.
12:10You seem pretty sure I'd turn up.
12:12That's because I'm pretty sure you still love it.
12:14Come on, let's talk on the way.
12:16See you, Grandad.
12:17Yeah, drive carefully.
12:19Stop pretending like you have a choice.
12:23Can I give it to you?
12:24I couldn't do small town myself.
12:26I'm in the city too much.
12:28Do you, uh, get away often?
12:31No.
12:32Not really.
12:34What sort of work do you do?
12:37In a bar.
12:39Sorry.
12:40Are you okay?
12:42Yeah, it's not you.
12:44It's...
12:45Look, if you don't want to talk, that's, that's cool.
12:52Oh, I don't know.
12:53Stop hassling you.
12:54Oh, no, you're not hassling me.
12:57Um...
12:59I'm just not really up to this.
13:01Yeah.
13:01Sorry.
13:08What about Bobby?
13:13What?
13:15Okay.
13:16Yeah.
13:17It's...
13:17It's...
13:17It's...
13:17Nothing.
13:18I'm being silly.
13:19What's who I mean?
13:24This...
13:25Cute guy picking me up used to be just...
13:27A cute guy picking me up.
13:30And now all I could think of was, what if he knew?
13:38It's never gonna be the same again, is it?
13:42Well, it'll get better.
13:46It'll never be the same.
14:10It'll never be the same.
14:12Sorry, Annie. I didn't mean to startle you.
14:15Would you like to take a walk with me?
14:18No.
14:19Fine.
14:21Well, can I just give you a word of advice?
14:24Now, I understand that Aidan Jeffries has upset you in the past,
14:28not least for bullying your brother,
14:30but the courts aren't here to punish him for that.
14:34If, however, he did as you say,
14:36well, then he deserves the consequences.
14:40Annie.
14:40Annie, lying under oath carries a very severe penalty.
14:46Now, it's not too late to change your statement,
14:48if, indeed, it was false.
14:51Well, you just think about that, will you?
15:01Get out.
15:02What's your problem?
15:03If you don't know by now, Buster, you never will.
15:05Now, get out of here.
15:07It's a public place, so you can...
15:08Oh, no, no, no, no. You see, that's where you're wrong.
15:10This is my private business, and you are not welcome here.
15:13Now, get out.
15:14Look, I didn't touch her, OK? She's lying.
15:15Well, I've got to believe her over you any day, buddy.
15:19Now, for the last time, get out of here.
15:21Thank you, mate.
15:22Don't tempt me.
15:23Irene, come on.
15:23You stay out of this.
15:24Look, the old bitch has lost her, mate.
15:25Did I do anything? You can ask them.
15:27Will you get out now?
15:28Why don't you both settle down?
15:29Stop blaming me, mate.
15:30I do blame you, you see.
15:32Oh, I...
15:32Oh, you keep out of it, too.
15:35After what you did to Annie, mate, I don't want you anywhere near me.
15:38Now, get out.
15:39The last time...
15:40Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
15:41Get out of here.
15:42Oh, my God, you stupid woman.
15:44God, Edward, lie still.
15:45Lie still.
15:47We'll get some help.
15:48Hey, lie still.
15:51It's all right.
15:55It doesn't look good.
15:57I'd like to take an x-ray.
15:58I'm going to get her for this.
16:00Come on, mate.
16:00Irene didn't...
16:00I'm not your mate.
16:01Oi.
16:02The man just brought you here.
16:03Show us some gratitude, please.
16:05Don't worry.
16:05We're going to sort it out, yeah?
16:06Yeah, how can I not worry?
16:07I might be crippled because of that old bag.
16:09But you should have just left when she told you to.
16:10Yeah, I wasn't doing anything.
16:13She's going to be sorry.
16:15I'm going to sue her.
16:17And both of you are going to be my witnesses.
16:23Maybe you should go in first and see how it is.
16:25Maddie.
16:25You should have told him I was here.
16:26He might not want to see me.
16:27Have you not listened to anything you've said in the last two hours?
16:30Yeah, it was pretty hard not to.
16:33Good.
16:33Well, let's go.
16:34Oh, look, there they are.
16:40Maddie.
16:40She doesn't even know I was here.
16:41Don't be stupid.
16:42You don't be stupid.
16:43You saw her.
16:44You don't even know...
16:45We both know what she was.
16:47Please, just give me the keys and don't say I was here.
16:50Martha, please, give me the keys.
16:53I won't be long.
16:55Take your time.
16:59Ah, how is he?
17:00Oh, he's great.
17:01There's damages.
17:02Whether it's long-term or not, we'll see.
17:05He certainly needs more therapy
17:06and he'll be back in a brace for about a week.
17:08I hope you're taking notes.
17:09I'm not your secretary.
17:11You're my own lawyer, aren't you?
17:12So, can I take the little charmer home?
17:14Sure.
17:15You need to rest your leg for the rest of the day
17:17and I'll ring through your therapy schedule.
17:19All right, thanks.
17:20Good heavens.
17:21You actually can say the word.
17:23Look, do we have a case to sue the old bat yet?
17:26You've been watching far too much television, my boy.
17:28Oh, look, Irene shoved me, okay?
17:29You saw it.
17:30Aidan, you are facing serious charges.
17:33Community opinion is not in your favour,
17:35so suing one of the town's most popular residents
17:37will do absolutely nothing for your support base.
17:41Drop it.
17:42Um, no.
17:45And you're going to be there.
17:46If not as my lawyer, then as my witness.
17:51Hey.
17:52Hey.
17:53What are you doing here?
17:54Here to see hospital security.
17:56We're going to take the guard off Sally's room.
17:58Why?
17:59A little boy's gone missing around Oyster Bay,
18:01so we need everyone up there for the search.
18:03What about Sally?
18:04I know.
18:06Because Johnny was shot.
18:07What, you think, he's either long gone
18:08or he's dead in the bush somewhere?
18:10He could be hiding.
18:11That's unlikely.
18:12We've had all his contacts covered.
18:14It's a pretty safe risk or we wouldn't be taking it.
18:17And hospital security's going to take over,
18:18so it's not as though she's going to be unprotected.
18:21It's not the same as having an armed policeman
18:22outside your door.
18:23I know, but, look, like I said,
18:26we wouldn't do it if we didn't think that Sally was safe.
18:28Famous last words.
18:30I love your vote of confidence.
18:32I love you.
18:33See ya.
18:35Bye.
18:39Bye.
18:58So we just fell.
18:59That's all you know.
19:01It's something to do with the ropes.
19:03There's nothing anyone could have done to save you.
19:07Guys, you don't need me here.
19:09No, I don't know.
19:10No, really.
19:12Here's my number.
19:14Okay?
19:15Call me.
19:17This is personal stuff.
19:18Okay.
19:19Cassie, Martha, it was really nice to meet you.
19:22This is really...
19:25Take care.
19:33So it's going to be a memorial, right?
19:35Yeah, it's going to be tomorrow.
19:37I know you guys have a lot on here,
19:40but Sally wanted me to at least tell you,
19:42and if you can't make it, she does understand.
19:44No, I want to be there.
19:45Oh, yeah, me too, yeah.
19:47Good.
19:48I need to talk to you about Matilda,
19:51and I think you should tell Cass what's been going on with Sally.
19:54Okay.
19:56There's something else.
19:57I swear I didn't tell her, Cass.
20:00Sally knows you're pregnant.
20:03How?
20:04I...
20:04I don't know.
20:05I don't know.
