00:01Your timing couldn't be better.
00:02We've got a program lined up for tomorrow night.
00:04I'm sure we could squeeze another fight under the card.
00:08This is one off, alright? That's all.
00:10Is it true? Did you throw the card I made you in the rubbish bin?
00:12Oi, Campbell, I think your girlfriend's waiting for an answer.
00:14She's not my girlfriend, alright?
00:16And yes, I threw your stupid card in the bin, Melody.
00:18You happy now?
00:18That is an...
00:19Why don't you just back off and quit stalking me?
00:21Alright, everyone, the show's over.
00:22You're just as shallow and superficial as all the other jerks at school.
00:26Except you're more weak and gutless.
00:29I feel kind of guilty.
00:31Almost like I've done something to be ashamed of.
00:34Whatever it is, it's important that you don't try to keep it hidden or block it out.
00:40Whatever you were arguing about, he is going to remember it sooner or later.
00:43Then I'll deal with it when the time comes.
00:45Well, if you ever need any help or want someone to talk to...
00:48Thanks, but I know how to look after my son.
00:52You know we belong together, you and I forever and ever.
01:01No matter where you are, you're my guiding star.
01:10Hold me in your arms, don't let me go.
01:15I want to stay forever, close to each day.
01:21Home and away.
01:25Hey, good swim?
01:27Yeah, water was perfect.
01:28It's not like I've got anything better to do with my time.
01:30Oh, he does sound too unhappy about that.
01:33Oh, I wish things could have worked out at the paper, but I just don't think I was cut out
01:36to be a journalist.
01:37Well, I think you're very brave.
01:39Most people would hang in there even if it wasn't making them happy.
01:42And you know I want you to come work with me.
01:44Oh, well, I had a great conversation with Irene last night and she's cool with it.
01:48Really?
01:48Yeah, I can start whenever you like.
01:50Oh, this is perfect.
01:52The kids are going to love you.
01:53Oh, and I've finally come up with a name.
01:55Oh, great, what is it?
01:56Okay, be honest if you don't like it.
01:58Mm-hmm.
01:59Identity Crisis.
02:01It's a play on Dan's name.
02:03Identity.
02:03Instead of identity.
02:05Well, it's not really a crisis centre though, is it?
02:07Well, it's somewhere safe for them to hang out, a place they can call their own.
02:11Well, I've got another choice.
02:12What about Identity Club?
02:15What?
02:15It's just, it's not cool.
02:17Well, it's, um...
02:18Hey!
02:19Hey, why didn't you come for a swim before?
02:21Oh, I just didn't feel like it until.
02:24If he's having a bit of a bad day, she'd probably go keep him company.
02:27Yeah, sure.
02:27Oh, if you can later, can you help me set up the PCs?
02:30Yeah, sure, after lunch.
02:31Great.
02:32Great.
02:32See ya.
02:34I think identity crisis is a lovely day.
02:38I just wanted to come up with something the kids could relate to.
02:44I don't want to live in a war zone, so you and Annie had better sort this out.
02:48Well, it's kind of hard when she won't even talk to me.
02:50She's busy sticking up for Melody.
02:51Well, then talk to Melody again.
02:53Tell her you didn't mean to be such a shallow jerk.
02:54It just came out that way.
02:55I never wanted to hurt her.
02:57Well, you shouldn't let her think she was your girlfriend.
02:59Well, I tried setting her straight, but nothing I said made any difference.
03:02Anyway, aren't you meant to be visiting Rory with her and Annie today?
03:05Annie and Melody don't want me to come.
03:08Well, you really are in the doghouse, aren't you?
03:10You know, Bill, if you're trying to make me feel worse, you're doing a pretty good job at it.
03:14Hey, guys.
03:15What's up?
03:16Jeff here is feeling sorry for himself.
03:19Oh, come on. I'm only joking.
03:23He's messed things up with a girl, Melody.
03:26And you're giving him a hard time about it.
03:27I am just teasing him.
03:29Don't you know the male ego's a fragile thing?
03:32Well, maybe he should talk to a guy about this stuff.
03:35Oh, no, no, no, no.
03:37I can't even sort out my own life, let alone someone else's.
03:40Look, he lives in a house full of women.
03:43He needs a male boy.
03:45Now I know what Jeff's going through.
03:47So you help him?
03:48No, I think I'll leave the teen eggs to Leah next door.
03:51You know, she came up with a name.
03:53Yeah, she told me last night.
03:56Didn't know what to say either.
03:57Because she was so excited.
04:00Alright, I'll make you a deal.
04:01I'll talk to Jeff if you get Leah to change the name.
04:04Deal?
04:05Deal.
04:06I did not know spending money was going to be this much fun.
04:10New telly, new sound system, new barbie.
04:13There is so much more to come.
04:16I could definitely get used to it.
04:18So, mate, I'll fix you up with my share of stuff just as soon as I can, okay?
04:21Rick, don't you worry about it.
04:23You get a job when you're good and ready.
04:25Yeah, you know what? I've got a feeling something's going to come along pretty soon.
04:27Yeah, of course it will.
04:28And in the meantime, to pay Miles back, you can just do the dishes.
04:31Every night.
04:32There is a thinker right there.
04:33No, don't encourage.
04:34Whose side do you want?
04:35Yours, and you know it.
04:37Alright, we're going to try and think where we're going to put all this new stuff.
04:40Oh, I'm going to prove he's to sell.
04:42Mine too.
04:43Yeah, it's Sally.
04:44Landed in Phuket, so beautiful, warm and sunny.
04:47Cassie and Pippa send their love, miss you all.
04:49Aww.
04:50Sounds like they're having a good time.
04:51Yeah, of course they are. They're in Phuket. It'd be amazing.
05:01I might just check that he's alright.
05:18I know setting up the barbie is a bit of a guy thing, but do you want a hand?
05:22I will be fine.
05:24You sure?
05:25Yeah.
05:27I was just thinking, I don't know, it might be a bit hard for you knowing that Sal and Cass
05:32are over there.
05:34Actually, you know what? I'm okay.
05:36I mean, thinking about Lou and Amber is always going to make me feel...
05:41But knowing Sal's out there on the beach, saying her prayer for them,
05:45kind of makes me feel like I'm there, you know?
05:48What do you think I was going to think about this barbecue?
05:51This is what I don't get about you guys. Why do you obsess about this stuff?
05:55Matilda, this is deep in our DNA.
05:58Cavemen, fire, we just, we can't help them.
06:01You know that's a bit sad, right?
06:02Yeah.
06:03What's sad, apart from Bambi?
06:07Bambi's very sad, Rick.
06:10Are you alright?
06:12I don't think it's easy for him, but yeah, he seems to be.
06:16Maybe we should fire up this and have a couple of people over to keep him company.
06:19Oh, well I mean, I just got a text from Drew and I think he feels bad about not catching
06:25up when he was in town.
06:26Really?
06:27Yeah, he wants to meet in the city, you know?
06:29A bit of a guy's not trying to patch things up.
06:31Oh, okay.
06:32Are you going to get the buzz?
06:33Yeah.
06:34Oh, say hi to him for me.
06:35Yeah, I will.
06:36Look, I'll invite you along.
06:37I mean, it's just, we're just probably going to talk about cars and have a few beers.
06:41Nothing full on, you don't have to worry.
06:43We're not going to get up to anything.
06:44You don't have to justify yourself.
06:46Unless I should be worried.
06:48What do you think?
06:49That I trust you and that I think it's sweet that you care what I think.
06:51Mwah.
06:52Come on.
07:03He's doing well.
07:10We're about to see you!
07:25Stop it!
07:35Hey, what's going on?
07:37Mate, are you in pain?
07:40I just...
07:43I just had a dream.
07:45We were fighting about something.
07:47You were really angry at me.
07:50Well, it's all over now.
07:51Just relax, okay?
07:54It was really intense.
07:58It's like you hated me or something.
08:00It was a bad dream.
08:02That's all.
08:03The doctor said the painkillers might just take a sleep.
08:07Listen, I'll go and talk to someone.
08:09Maybe they can cut the dose back, okay?
08:12Okay.
08:26Dr. Armstrong, you said the other day that if I could come and talk to you...
08:37Let's find something quiet, okay?
08:47I was just a kid when Dad went over to fight in Vietnam.
08:51Me and my brothers, we thought he was a hero.
08:54I thought he was this big, strong guy who could do anything he wanted.
08:59But when he came back from the war, he never really talked much about what happened.
09:05But he changed.
09:07He'd fly off the handle at anything.
09:10You never knew I was going to set him off.
09:12Something a lot of Vietnam vets and their families went through.
09:15Yeah, well, at least people can talk about it now.
09:17But back then, we had to cope on our own.
09:18And Mum, she never wanted anyone to know that we were doing it so tough.
09:24Was he ever violent towards her or towards your kids?
09:27Not physically, no, but he was hard.
09:34I mean, nothing we did was ever good enough.
09:40But whatever else you say about him, he was there for me when things went wrong.
09:45When my wife died and I really needed help with the boys, Dad moved in with us.
09:53Anyway, not long after that, Aidan's older brother, Justin, he started to play up.
10:02I thought it was about losing his mother.
10:06But he said things about Dad.
10:12They didn't make much sense to me at the time.
10:16Aidan told me that Justin left home a couple of years ago.
10:20Yeah, yeah, against my wishes.
10:24I'd made a total mess of it with him.
10:28And I just told myself I was going to do it right with Aidan.
10:31And for a while, you know, we were okay.
10:33But then he went off the rails, just like his brother.
10:37Did you ever talk to him about what he was feeling?
10:41We don't talk much about feelings in our house.
10:46Maybe that's why Dad thought that he could...
10:54One afternoon, I...
10:58I walked in on him with Aidan.
11:01They were in his bedroom.
11:04And...
11:08Little Dad...
11:11He was...
11:15Well...
11:18I told myself that I was wrong.
11:20That he was just comforting him.
11:23That it was innocent.
11:25I mean, Aidan would have said something if it wasn't, right?
11:28What did you do then?
11:30I made sure that Dad and Aidan were never left alone.
11:34And a few months later, Dad died.
11:38You never confronted him about what he did.
11:40How could I?
11:41What if I was wrong?
11:43My Dad, he was a war hero.
11:47But then, I started to remember all of the other times that...
11:52That Dad had been close to Aidan and his brother.
11:56Moments that seemed innocent.
11:58But maybe...
11:59Just maybe they weren't.
12:01And maybe I had turned a blind eye.
12:02I didn't know for sure.
12:04But you see, you just don't ever imagine that...
12:09It's okay.
12:09I know what you're thinking.
12:11Mr Jeffries, I am not judging you.
12:13You're right.
12:14I was weak.
12:15It was easier for me to pretend that it wasn't happening.
12:19The night of the accident, was that the first time that Aidan mentioned the abuse to you?
12:23Yeah, and he was so angry.
12:28And you know everything he said?
12:32It's true.
12:33I should have protected him.
12:35I should have had the guts to stand up to Dad.
12:39I just wanted it all to go away.
12:44I...
12:44I just wanted Aidan to forget.
12:48In my experience, kids don't forget.
12:52It's the guilt and the shame.
12:55And the sense that they're the one that's done something wrong that keeps them silent.
13:01Now, I know that you want to help Aidan, but the only way you're going to do that is to
13:06break that silence.
13:11Are you ready to do that?
13:12I'm ready to do that.
13:20Hey!
13:20Hey!
13:22Waves look alright?
13:24Yeah.
13:24I was just taking a break from work.
13:34There's nothing wrong with looking, mate.
13:38Yeah, sorry I was a bit weird at the diner this morning.
13:40Yeah, Belle said you were having a pretty rough time with Melody.
13:43Well, Belle's got a pretty big mouth.
13:45Okay, don't have to talk about it if you don't want to.
13:49Well, see, the thing is, I like Melody,
13:51but she thinks there's a lot more going on than what there really is.
13:54Can't think of a way to let her down gently.
13:56Well, I tried, but it didn't come out the right way.
13:58And when I did, it came out completely wrong.
14:00And when I apologised, she just ripped into me
14:02and said how shallow I am, how I'm superficial
14:04and how I'm only interested in hot girls.
14:06You know what, Roman? She's right.
14:08No, I think you're being a bit hard on yourself, mate.
14:10Well, it's what the Bible says.
14:11I should be more interested in what people are
14:13than what they look like.
14:14Dude, it's called being human.
14:16Well, aside, you didn't turn her away
14:18just because she wasn't pretty enough, right?
14:20I guess not.
14:21Okay, so I'm no expert on the Bible,
14:23but the first thing you said to me
14:25was you actually like her, right?
14:26Well, I wasn't interested at first,
14:28and then I was,
14:29and then I just wanted her to go away.
14:31But now, I'll apologise to her.
14:34But after that, I'm just going to stay away from girls.
14:36Yeah, don't make any hasty decisions.
14:38You'll work it out. Just give it time.
14:40I don't want to.
14:41It's easy this way.
14:42No one ends up hating me.
14:43No one ends up getting hurt.
14:45Thanks for the chat, Roman.
14:58You ready to fight, mate?
15:02Well, if you don't want the money...
15:09What you care, what you want
15:13You wonder why it took so long
15:28This is just a soft bound.
15:30You're not going to get the crown warmed up.
15:39Are you kidding me?
15:40This little bloke's got no chance.
15:42Don't worry about him.
15:43He's taken worse punishment than this.
15:47It's all right.
15:48Once you get in there,
15:48the adrenaline takes over.
15:50The whole crowd's going to get behind you.
15:53I see if those blokes are betting against me.
15:56Someone's going to go down.
15:57That's the way it works, eh?
16:01Who am I fighting?
16:03You'll find out soon enough.
16:14Hey.
16:15That's what the light on.
16:16I thought I'd come and see how you were going.
16:18Yeah, I'm just, um, taking a break.
16:21Yeah, this place looks fantastic.
16:24It's very 80.
16:30You're exhausted.
16:31Yeah.
16:32I've been running on adrenaline.
16:35Today, I'm just wondering
16:37whether I'm the right person to run this place.
16:40What's this?
16:41Well, Belle's picked me up on something.
16:44It's nothing that serious,
16:45but it just made me realise how out of touch I am.
16:48I don't know what teenagers think anymore.
16:51Leah, I teach kids every day.
16:53And trust me, if you're doing something wrong,
16:55they're going to tell you.
16:55Yeah, but, Miles, what about if it's something serious?
16:57What about if there's a kid in trouble
16:58and I don't know how to handle it?
17:00Well, then you just call the local outreach centre
17:01and get some backup.
17:05Or let us help you out.
17:07We're here.
17:07I'm here.
17:08Yeah, no, I need to do everything right,
17:10you know, the way Dan would do it.
17:12Which is?
17:13Keeping it simple.
17:14But what I'm finding out is nothing is that simple.
17:17Look, I didn't know Dan,
17:19but I reckon he'd trust your judgement.
17:23Which is why I'm telling me I should trust mine.
17:25You're going to be OK.
17:27The spirit of Dan is alive and well in this place.
17:30You know, I've got to think of a name in this place here.
17:32I don't know, it's got to be something simple,
17:34something the kids are going to get.
17:35If it weren't simple, why don't you just call it the Dan?
17:38I mean, people are calling that anyway, aren't they?
17:40You reckon?
17:41Why not?
17:42Yeah.
17:43You know what?
17:44You're nearly as smart as your sister at the Dan.
17:46That's it, that's perfect.
17:47It's that simple.
17:48Yeah, yes, I'm a genius.
17:49I didn't say that now.
17:55Aidan's awake now.
17:56Do you want to go talk to him?
17:59I don't know what I'm going to say.
18:03It's not going to be easy,
18:04but once you walk in there,
18:07you're going to start to find the words.
18:09Well, what if I don't?
18:10What if I say the wrong thing?
18:12I could end up losing him for good.
18:13Like we talked about,
18:15there is a chance that he may reject you
18:16no matter what you say.
18:18But if you don't act now,
18:20it's only going to make things worse.
18:22Have faith in yourself.
18:23Have faith in him.
18:28Will you come in with me?
18:30In case things blow up.
18:34Please, I've just done so much wrong in all of this.
18:37I just want to get this much right.
18:52You're here to fight, mate.
18:55Who are you up against?
18:58You.
19:15Hi, mate.
19:20Aidan, there's...
19:24There's something that we need to talk about.
19:30It's, um...
19:32It's something that I'm not real proud of.
19:37You've forgotten a few things from before the accident,
19:41and they're starting to come back.
19:43And not just us fighting, mate.
19:45There are things worse than that.
19:51Things that we've never really properly talked about,
19:55and...
19:56Well, it's...
19:59It's time we did.
20:03I just hope you can forgive me.
20:25What do you think of Hardy?
20:26I think you're going to make more money if I lose than if I win.
20:29Mate, I win either way, as long as the punters are happy.
20:32The thing you need to know about Hardy is he's never lost a fight.
20:35You'll keep swinging until you drop.
20:36Yeah, that's great.
20:38So what's the goal here?
20:39What are the rules?
20:40No rules.
20:42Good luck, mate.
20:57Who killed Sam Holden?
20:59She was threatening to destroy you.
21:00Was it the husband?
21:02I did not kill my wife.
21:04Or...
21:04The ex-wife.
21:05Proof she had the opportunity to plant the node in the car.
21:08Their family and friends think they had the motive.
21:11Do you really think that I had something to do with killing Sam?
21:13But who is guilty?
21:15I'm here to tell you who really killed Sam Holden.
21:18You'll find out who done it.
21:21I'm arresting you on suspicion of murdering Samantha Holden.
21:23Next week on The Home and Away.
