00:01I was paid 800 bucks, can you believe it?
00:03Look where it's coming from.
00:05What? That's from the department.
00:06It's coming from Bartlett's personal account.
00:10I really like it when we're together.
00:19I hate my grandfather so much.
00:22You know, sometimes I wish he was still alive
00:25so that I could just make him pay for what he did to me.
00:50Do I want some toast?
00:56Jai, toast.
00:57Oh, no thanks.
00:59What are you doing after school?
01:01No plans.
01:02Because I was thinking that maybe you should join one of the school's sports teams
01:05or, you know, take up life-saving.
01:07Oh yeah, because I'm the Iron Man type, aren't I?
01:09We take all sorts, mate. We're always looking for new recruits.
01:14It'll be fun.
01:15Thanks, but it's really not me.
01:17You know, Jai, girls love life-savers.
01:19Someone has to, I guess.
01:23I hate to say it, mate, but I think you're flocking a dead horse there.
01:26Yeah, well, he lost his best friend. He doesn't want to talk about it.
01:29I just thought that joining a school team might be good for him, you know.
01:33Make some new friends, keep him out of trouble.
01:36He's always been a bit of a loner, if you ask me.
01:38Not that that's necessarily a bad thing, but...
01:41But I shouldn't force him into it.
01:44Yeah, I just keep my eye on him.
01:46Hmm.
01:46Okay, well, Ollie and I are off to daycare now.
01:48No!
01:49Yes, come on, we're gonna go.
01:50And I'm praying that they don't ask me for those fees, which are due.
01:53So you're not gonna use the money Bart they put in your account?
01:55Well, no, not unless it is back pay, not a handout.
01:58I really hope so, because I'm desperate for the money.
02:01See you later.
02:02See you, muscles.
02:02Bye-bye.
02:06Correct me if I'm wrong, girly, but isn't this the same Aidan Jeffries that called you
02:11a skank and had you crying on my shoulder?
02:13Look, he has apologised for that and we've sorted it out.
02:16Love, I'm sure he's apologised.
02:17But in my experience, a leopard doesn't change his spots.
02:20Not overnight.
02:21Look, I know you're only trying to look out for me.
02:23Love, all I ask is that you show yourself a bit more respect.
02:28Look, it's complicated between Aidan and me.
02:30I just really would like you to trust me on this one.
02:38Would you like some breakfast?
02:41How about I get it for us?
02:43Would you like toast or cereal?
02:45I'm gonna hit the road.
02:47Um, yeah, cereal's fine. Can I just grab a quick shower first?
02:51Uh, yeah, toast and the top cabinet.
02:55Geoff.
02:57Don't ask.
03:05You're looking very happy with yourself this morning.
03:08If I tell you something, will you promise not to tell Geoff?
03:11It'll be our little secret.
03:14Well, yesterday, John and I held hands.
03:17Oh, that's so sweet.
03:19Don't make fun of me.
03:20No, I'm not, I'm not making fun of you. It is, it's really sweet.
03:23I remember when holding hands was like bliss.
03:26Everything was so simple.
03:29Excellent haircut, Mr. Kelly.
03:31Nice to see so many bright, shiny faces.
03:33You've been getting a bit, sir.
03:36Perhaps it's because my bounty is as boundless as the sea.
03:39What Shakespeare plays that from, Mr. Jeffries?
03:41Um, who cares, maybe?
03:43That'd be Romeo and Juliet, sir.
03:44Well done, Mr. Campbell. Top marks.
03:52Oh, this guy's nuts, man. Check out the next bit.
03:55Oh, yeah, that's sick, man.
03:58This guy's nuts, man.
04:01Yeah, that's sick, man.
04:02Hey, if you want to check out some mad moves, you should see this guy.
04:05He doesn't like martial arts and climbs up the sides of walls and everything.
04:08Hey, the Freak Speaks.
04:10I can send you the link if you're interested.
04:12Do I look like I'm interested in anything you're into?
04:20Martin.
04:21Morning, Kirstie. Morning.
04:22You looking forward to putting out the PNC newsletter today?
04:24Yeah. Um, actually, before I do that, I just want to have a chat with you.
04:27Um, is that extra money?
04:29It should be in your account by now.
04:30Well, yeah, it is.
04:31Um, but I saw that it was from your account,
04:33so I'm just wondering, um, I don't know, but is that a mistake?
04:38Payroll's so hopelessly slow with these things.
04:40I just wanted to help you now while you had the need.
04:45Look, I've got no dependents, no mortgage.
04:47I'm in a position to relieve your financial burden
04:50until the back pay comes through.
04:52I'd like to help you.
04:55Okay, um...
04:55Look, I honestly don't know what to say.
04:57Well, you don't have to say anything.
04:58Let's just keep it between ourselves, eh?
05:01Excuse me.
05:02Morning.
05:08You can't take the money.
05:10No, I can't, can I?
05:12He means well, but it's...
05:13It's inappropriate.
05:14Yeah, that's what I was thinking too.
05:16You don't want to bend his debt, do you?
05:20You're still considering taking it?
05:22Well, I know that it's wrong, Miles, and I know that I shouldn't,
05:24but I'm really desperate here.
05:26Look, it's that bad.
05:27Just don't pay rent until you figure something out with Ollie.
05:29No, no, no, I can't do that to you.
05:30It's not a problem.
05:31Thanks.
05:33Okay, what do I say, though, so I don't hurt Martin's feelings?
05:36You know what?
05:37That is not your problem.
05:38You should never have put you in this position in the first place.
05:42Hey, here it is.
05:43Mr Copeland's special needs project.
05:47Sorry.
05:48It's a mad move I've been working on.
05:50I wonder if it bounces, huh?
05:52Don't drop it, man.
05:53Oh, don't drop it, man.
05:54All right, then I won't drop it.
05:56Freak!
05:59Okay, guys, that's the bell.
06:00It's lunchtime.
06:01Move away from the building.
06:03Come on.
06:04Drive them as you two.
06:05Come on.
06:09So did you apologise to Charlie for not going to the cops as soon as you heard about your dad?
06:14Yeah, she was cool.
06:16I mean, at least the cops now got a pretty firm lean on Dad.
06:21What are you doing in the sabo?
06:23Uh, nothing.
06:24Yeah, fine.
06:26Well, I thought...
06:28I've been a bit of a tool to you lately.
06:30And I'd like to do something special.
06:32Make it up to you.
06:34I'm always up for something special.
06:37Okay, cool.
06:39Leave it with me.
06:42He would not stand me up without any good reason.
06:45Maybe he got into trouble.
06:46Oi, check it out!
06:58How long has he been up there?
06:59Just a few minutes, I think.
07:02All right, don't panic.
07:02I'll get him down.
07:03I'll do it fast.
07:04I've got to call the police.
07:05Okay, can you guys just stand back, please?
07:09Jai, don't move!
07:11Sir, I can go up and get him if you want.
07:13No one else has to go anywhere near the roof.
07:15In fact, get some seniors, stop any other students from using the fire escape stairs.
07:19Go.
07:22Jai, what are you doing?
07:23Jai, do you want me to come up?
07:30The hell?
07:32How did his bag get up there?
07:33Do you believe me now, Annie?
07:35The guy's out of control.
07:36This is what I've been trying to tell you.
07:45All students are to remain in this quadrangle.
07:58Jai!
08:00You're an idiot!
08:10Are you seriously suggesting that you jumped off that building because you were imitating some dude in a video clip?
08:16No, I went up to get my bag.
08:19The rest just happened.
08:20Jai, what you did was moronic.
08:22You could have killed yourself.
08:23What a relief to hear that you had no intention of harming yourself.
08:26I can't begin to understand what possessed you.
08:29Like I said, I needed my bag.
08:31Jai, for heaven's sake.
08:32You should have told us that Matthew Lyons had tossed it up there.
08:34Then we could have made arrangements to get it down.
08:36Yeah, and then those guys would have paid out on me forever.
08:39Jai, by the time we're finished with you, Matthew Lyons and his mates will pale in comparison, believe you me.
08:43Jai, I'm seriously concerned by what you did today.
08:47I wasn't in danger, sir.
08:48Well, I'm afraid I can't agree with you.
08:50Actually, it was fine.
08:51Jai, you could have tripped and you could have fallen.
08:53What if somebody's been hurt trying to help you?
08:56Would you still think it was fun then?
09:00Look, I have to believe that this incident was caused at least in part by your recent accident and the
09:05loss of your friend Axel.
09:08I think you might be right there.
09:10I want you to apologise to the school at assembly.
09:13I want you to tell them that what you did today was stupid, reckless and way uncool.
09:18You understand?
09:20Sounds like a cry for help to me.
09:23Taking a risk like that just to get your flippin' school bag back.
09:26Oh, Annie, she's just been worried sick.
09:30You know her and Jai are close.
09:32Mm-hmm. Not for much longer if I have my way.
09:35I don't think she's going to give up on him without a fight.
09:38Mm-hmm.
09:39Oi.
09:41While we're on the subject of young men behaving badly, you and me don't have the best history, do we?
09:47I've been wiping away tears that you've caused for quite some time now.
09:51Yet, for some reason, Belle has decided to do a massive backflip about you,
09:56which means that now I'm going to have to deal with you on the scene outside of work as well.
10:00Now, that girl has put up with a lot from you, and she might be willing to forgive you,
10:04but I'm not that easily fooled, mate.
10:07So, if you muck her around, you're going to have me to deal with. You got it?
10:11No, I won't. I promise, Ari.
10:17Hey, how's my surprise coming along?
10:20Good. Meet me back at yours after work and you'll find out.
10:24Okay.
10:25Hopefully we have the place to ourselves.
10:31Annie!
10:33What are you doing here? You're not meant to be here after school's finished.
10:37Well, I want to see if Jai's okay. He's been in the principal's office all afternoon.
10:40Annie.
10:41See, this is what I've been trying to get at. Jai has issues that you can't fix.
10:46Okay? It's like what happened today. It just proves that I'm right.
10:49Jeff, it doesn't prove anything. You don't know Jai. You don't know why he did it.
10:53It doesn't matter why. He shouldn't have done it in the first place, Annie. It's dangerous.
10:56His best friend just died.
10:58When Reverend Hall died, I did some pretty stupid things and you understood.
11:03Okay. Maybe I can understand the effect it's having on Jai,
11:06but it doesn't mean that you should be hanging around with him.
11:09Jeff, you don't get to decide what I do.
11:11Annie, Pop would have expected me to look after you.
11:13I'm not turning my back on him. I'm staying right here.
11:15No, you're not. Come home with me, okay?
11:18Annie.
11:21We're leaving.
11:23Now!
11:33Aidan, are you here?
11:42They are so beautiful.
11:44They're not too sloppy, are they?
11:46No, no. They...
11:48They are so gorgeous. Thank you so much.
11:54I picked this up on DVD on the way home.
11:59I think we've got better things to do.
12:05Okay. What do you have in mind?
12:07You're welcome there?
12:11I'm pretty good.
12:13No.
12:24Yes, please.
12:34Yeah, fast.
12:34It's fun.
12:35I'm good.
12:36I'm good.
12:37So, you're welcome.
12:39Aidan, stop.
12:41Aidan, stop!
12:42What's the problem?
12:45I get it.
12:46Now I've told you everything, you don't want to touch me, is that it?
12:49That's not what I was talking about.
12:50You find me repulsive, you think I'm damaged, good, is that right?
12:54I thought we had an agreement, I thought you were serious about being honest with me.
13:02If you're not going to let me in, then go.
13:23What do you want me for?
13:24I'm useless.
13:27What are you talking about?
13:31You've got so much experience and I'm just a dud for a boyfriend.
13:43Is that seriously what you think it's all about?
14:03What's the point of getting counselling? I don't need it.
14:05The point is, you have not dealt with Axel's death in a healthy way.
14:08I told you, I see death differently after what happened to my family.
14:11Mate, Miles has been saying the same thing for some time.
14:14It's not just today that's worrying him.
14:16Like, at first I accepted that you were unusually calm because of your past.
14:20But you have to go through some kind of grieving process, Jai.
14:24And that does not include climbing up on top of a building and jumping off again.
14:27And I don't give a rat's what your reason is or how safe you think it is.
14:30Being on a roof is not safe, even for the blokes who are paid to do it.
14:38Hi, is it alright if I talk to Jai?
14:40Can I?
14:44You can talk outside, but you do not leave this house.
14:55I thought that if I told you what happened, then it would fix my problem.
15:04I don't think it works like that.
15:10I just feel like such an idiot for trying to force it.
15:13You know, I just wanted to prove to you that I could and that I wanted to be with you.
15:21You didn't have to, I already know that.
15:25It's okay, you're already forgiven.
15:28What if it's always going to be like this?
15:31I don't think it will be.
15:34But every time we get close, I feel like I get to this point that I can't go past.
15:41And it's like a wall or something.
15:46When it happens, I hate myself.
15:50Because I feel like you look at me and see what a huge loser that I am.
15:58Do you know what I see when I look at you?
16:04I see this guy that I want to get to know.
16:08Because the more I know about him, the more I like him.
16:14I see this incredible person that I want to experience things with.
16:22That I want to be with.
16:25I meant what I said.
16:26There is no rush for anything to happen.
16:35I know I haven't had many, but
16:43you have to be the most perfect girlfriend ever.
16:58So what do we do in the meantime?
17:01Until I can get past my problem.
17:05I can hold hands.
17:08That's enough for me.
17:13I've done all the paperwork.
17:14I'll get the instant report to you first thing tomorrow.
17:17Uh-huh.
17:19Well, I've got my secretary to do it.
17:22Okay.
17:23Thanks. Bye.
17:27Hi.
17:28Kirsty.
17:29Sorry.
17:29I've been calling you on your mobile, but it's been on your message bank.
17:32Yeah.
17:32I've been on the phone non-stop ever since Jai pulled his little stunt today.
17:35Oh, so sorry that I had to leave.
17:36I just needed to get on.
17:37You don't have to explain.
17:38You can always leave on time.
17:40You didn't have to come back here, either.
17:41No, no, no.
17:41I was hoping to catch you, actually, before you left and give you this.
17:44What is it?
17:45Martin, it's a check.
17:46Oh, no, no.
17:47It's not necessary.
17:47No, no, no.
17:48Martin, it is necessary.
17:50I, look, I think that you're incredibly generous, and I am grateful, but I just can't accept
17:54that sort of help.
17:55I've rearranged a few things, and I'll be able to cope fine until the back pay comes through.
17:59I also managed to get all the alternative care, so, and Miles is going to defer my rent,
18:03so thank you.
18:05Thanks anyway.
18:06You didn't have to go to all that trouble.
18:07I was happy for you to keep the money, Kirsty.
18:09Martin, you're my boss.
18:11I just couldn't do that.
18:13Of course.
18:14I understand.
18:17Okay, well, I'll see you tomorrow, then.
18:19You will.
18:20First thing.
18:26He just seems to go from one drama to the next.
18:29Yeah, but I think we have to keep in mind what Jai's been through.
18:32Oh, no, believe me, I'm not discounting that at all.
18:34In fact, I'm saying that if this is in response to what he has been through, then it's a worry.
18:39It's not healthy.
18:40And you're afraid he's going to lead Annie a stroke?
18:43Irene, have you seen Annie?
18:44Oh, she went to a room about an hour ago, darling.
18:47Well, she's not there anymore.
18:48What?
18:49Well, I just went to check up on her, and she's not in a room.
18:51I thought you of all people would understand me without having to explain it.
18:56Jai, how can I understand something like this?
18:59I thought this whole invincible thing was just between us, but...
19:03Now it's like you're trying to prove it to the whole world.
19:05No, it wasn't like that.
19:06Then what's it like?
19:08Matthew Lyons chucked my bag up onto the roof, so I decided to get it.
19:11I wanted to show him that I wasn't scared of him and his mates.
19:15And I knew if I fell, I wasn't going to die.
19:17So what's the difference?
19:18Jai, that's stupid.
19:20You didn't prove anything.
19:21It's not stupid, Annie.
19:23You couldn't have done what I did.
19:24No one could.
19:25You really scare me, you know that?
19:27There's nothing to be afraid of.
19:29You know I'm protected.
19:30So if I said that I don't want you to take any more risks like this,
19:34you're not even going to listen to me.
19:40Annie, please don't go.
19:43You want me to understand you, but you don't know what it's like to be in my shoes.
19:54Guys, I'm so sorry to come marching in this time of night.
19:57Has anybody seen Annie?
19:59Well, she was here this afternoon, but only for a few minutes.
20:02Jai, have you seen her?
20:03No.
20:03Now, mate, come on.
20:04I know for a fact that you two are as thick as thieves.
20:07If you know anything at all, you tell me.
20:10She was angry with me when she left, but I thought she was going straight home.
20:15But you've called her friends, Liz.
20:16Love, we've done all of that.
20:17Jeff's out there looking for her now.
20:18Don't worry.
20:19We'll find her.
20:22Ollie, what are you doing up?
20:25You're not going?
20:27I'm going to find Annie.
20:28No, no, no.
20:28You're staying here with Kirstie.
20:30That's an order.
20:31Come on, let's get cracking.
20:33Jai, Jai, I'm going to put Ollie to bed.
20:35I'll be right back.
20:36Stay here, OK?
20:46Ernie!
20:54Someone's plotting revenge.
21:02Follow the clues that will lead to the Olympic cliffhanger.
21:09Home and Away continues tomorrow.
