00:00Previously on Home and Away.
00:01Fitzy said we don't have enough evidence to get hold of those medical records.
00:04So the whole thing's off.
00:06Without the medical records, we've got nothing.
00:08You know this is right.
00:10Yeah, I know.
00:13But you're gonna have to wait.
00:14Come on.
00:15I can hardly tell him now. The poor guy's in hospital.
00:19Um, is it okay if my boyfriend stays for dinner?
00:23Sure.
00:27Mom.
00:27Please, Nick. I mean, you can't turn your back on me now.
00:35So Roy kicked you out.
00:37What do you expect me to do about it?
00:39Nothing.
00:40Nick, the truth is...
00:42The truth? Don't insult me, Mum.
00:44All you've done is told me lies,
00:46and then you come here looking for sympathy?
00:48You're a joke.
00:49Nick, please. That's not why I'm here.
00:52I mean, just let me explain.
00:54Look, I know what Trent told you must have been upsetting.
00:58He was right.
01:00I was trying to convince you to live with me so that I could keep the house.
01:04Yeah.
01:04You were using me to secure real estate.
01:07I'm not proud of it.
01:08But look, I've just missed you so much.
01:13And the house, I mean, it means nothing to me.
01:16All that matters to me is you.
01:20I want us to start again, to get our relationship back on track.
01:24Relationship?
01:25We never had a relationship.
01:27It's all fake, and it always has been.
01:29That's not true.
01:30Yes, it is.
01:31Hey, Nick.
01:32No!
01:32No, you told me last night that you threw Roy out
01:36because you realised what a low life he was.
01:39But you didn't throw him out.
01:42He threw you out.
01:43So you still must think that I'm the tease, right?
01:47That I threw myself at him?
01:49No, I don't believe that.
01:52Roy is not the man that I thought he was.
01:55I was wrong to take his side over yours,
01:58and I'll regret that for as long as I live.
02:02Please, Nick, just give me another chance.
02:04She better be gone by the time that I get back.
02:11Nicole!
02:13Nicole, wait!
02:14Nicole, will you just slow down so I can talk to you, please?
02:17How could she expect me to give her another chance?
02:20She stayed with that sleaze after I told her what he did to me.
02:24What, so she could have cocktails by the pool
02:26and a monthly shopping allowance?
02:28Which is awful, I know.
02:30But it really looks like she's trying to smooth things over with you.
02:33Just try to talk to her one more time.
02:35No way!
02:36I have said all that I am going to say to her,
02:38and I mean it!
02:42Can't we just go back to your place?
02:45Because I can't go back there.
02:48Yeah, sure.
03:11So this is what it's always going to be like, is it?
03:14Us sneaking around?
03:16No.
03:17No.
03:18Will you promise to tell Angelo as soon as he got out of hospital about us?
03:21Yeah, I will.
03:22I promise as soon as he's recovered.
03:24Tell him.
03:31Are you...
03:33Are you okay?
03:34Yeah.
03:36My mind is ticking over with all this development stuff.
03:40I've got this list of names from Rachel, which I'm really grateful for.
03:45But?
03:46Well, come on.
03:47Would you hand over your medical records to some crazy chick who rocked up on your doorstep with some conspiracy
03:52theory?
03:54Yeah, if she was as hot as this.
03:56I am serious.
03:57Me too.
03:59Okay.
04:00Righto.
04:02Okay.
04:02What you need to do then is find out something else.
04:06You know, something else to convince them with.
04:08Like?
04:09What about that Murray guy?
04:11I mean, he's the one who got that into you in the first place, isn't it?
04:14Yeah, the guy disappeared, remember?
04:15And he was paid off.
04:17Exactly.
04:19Makes sense.
04:20Anytime soon.
04:21Well, you don't get paid off unless you know something, right?
04:26So, why don't you find out what that was?
04:28Use that information to, I know, get those people to release their medical records.
04:35Better go.
04:36No.
04:37Why not?
04:38No.
04:42No.
04:43Bye.
05:00The number you have called is disconnected.
05:03Please check the number and try again.
05:08Come on, it's just one night.
05:09It's not the end of the world.
05:11Uh, it will be if Irene finds out, Nick.
05:14Well, then we make sure that she never finds out.
05:16Please, Jeff, come on, this is an emergency.
05:20Look, okay, you can stay here for a little bit, but after that, I'm going to walk you home, okay?
05:24Fine, but if she's still there, I'm not talking to her.
05:29Thanks.
05:34If she's anything like my sister, she probably just needs a bit of time to cool off.
05:39It's getting late.
05:40I mean, she's probably planning on staying at that boy's house.
05:42Oh, no, no, I doubt it.
05:43Irene wouldn't allow it.
05:45She'd give her another call.
05:47I'm not going anywhere until I've had a chance to talk to her properly.
05:54Nick, it's, um, it's just me again.
05:57We're all worried about you, so give us a call back.
06:01Bye.
06:02I honestly thought we would have worked things out by now.
06:07Finding somewhere to stay the night never even occurred to me.
06:15Well, there is Morag's room.
06:18That's still made up, so if you want to stay, you can take that.
06:21Are you sure?
06:22Yeah, sure.
06:23Thanks.
06:26Lead the way.
06:28We can take it all now.
06:33We can take it now.
06:43Hello?
06:44Hi, Murray, is that you?
06:47Who is this?
06:48Murray, it's Belle Taylor.
06:50It's you, isn't it?
06:51How did you get this number?
06:52Look, that doesn't matter.
06:54I need to talk to you, and please do not hang up on me.
06:56Whatever it is, I can't help you.
06:58I'm sorry.
06:58Murray, listen.
06:59You were right about the development site.
07:01The soil is contaminated.
07:03There is no doubt about it in my mind.
07:05You've got proof?
07:06Yes, yes, I do.
07:08And I know you were paid off, but if you help me now...
07:10I can't.
07:11No, wait, this is so much bigger than we thought.
07:14People are dying.
07:15What?
07:18What do you mean?
07:18The chemicals in the soil, they cause cancer.
07:22Heaps of people who live near the development site have gotten sick.
07:24Some have died.
07:27Look, Belle, there's nothing I can do.
07:29I'm sorry.
07:30No, wait.
07:53It's Murray.
07:54We have to meet.
08:16Can I help you?
08:17Mrs Wilkinson?
08:18Yes.
08:19Hi, my name's Belle Taylor.
08:21I'm conducting some research into potential health risks in the area.
08:24I was wondering if I could ask you some questions.
08:26Okay.
08:27Have you or anyone else in your household suffered from cancer or a serious illness?
08:32Mm-hmm.
08:33I ask because it could be linked to risks specific to this area if you could just tell me about
08:37your story.
08:37Oh, not mine.
08:38My husband, Gary.
08:40Oh, can I talk to Gary?
08:43Gary's dead.
08:45He died two months ago.
08:47He died two months ago.
08:47Prostate cancer?
08:48I'm so sorry.
08:50If I could have your permission to access Gary's medical records, if we get enough people
08:54to agree, we could get a proper investigation started.
08:57Well, can't you get the records from the hospital?
08:59Well, I need you to sign a release form first.
09:02I don't exactly work for the hospital.
09:04Well, who do you work for?
09:06I don't work for anyone.
09:08I'm a concerned local.
09:09I'm here voluntarily.
09:11Look, I can't help you.
09:13Please, look, this is important.
09:15Gary's death might have been preventable.
09:17Don't talk to me about prevention.
09:19Gary had his prostate checked regularly.
09:21He never smoked a single cigarette in his life, hardly touched a drink.
09:24He rode mountain bikes.
09:26He was the healthiest person you can meet.
09:28But none of that mattered, did it?
09:30That's what I'm saying.
09:31There might be another explanation.
09:33There is no explanation.
09:35Good people die for no good reason.
09:38It's just the way it goes.
09:39I've spent too long trying to understand why.
09:42Please, I just want you to leave.
09:45I'm so sorry.
09:46I didn't mean to upset you.
09:47But if you do change your mind...
10:04Glasses?
10:05Uh, yeah, top shelf.
10:09Nicole's run, right?
10:10Correct.
10:12I'm in.
10:14Natalie, pleased to meet you.
10:16Hi.
10:17Kettle's just boiled and there's toast and cereal.
10:19Great.
10:20Just coffee, thanks.
10:26Why don't you, uh, have a coffee and we can talk for a minute.
10:33Come on, Nick.
10:34You can't ignore me forever.
10:35Watch me.
10:36Nick, come on.
10:38Maybe you can just have a talk with your mum for a couple of minutes.
10:41Not going to happen.
10:43Maybe later?
10:44No.
10:45So much for that.
10:46Well, you can't exactly blame her for being angry, Nat.
10:49How come she's been with you for six months and you guys have it all worked out?
10:52And she lived with me for 16 years and she won't even talk to me.
10:55Well, I'll leave you to figure that one out.
11:28Hi.
11:29Dana, I'm not sure if you remember me.
11:30I'm Bill Taylor.
11:31I'm a friend of Rachel Armstrong's.
11:33I just wanted to tell you how sorry I am for the loss of Joe.
11:35If you're here to point the finger, don't bother.
11:37I already know it's my fault.
11:38No, no, not at all.
11:39I'm here to talk to you about what happened, what might have caused it.
11:41I caused it.
11:42I screwed up missing his appointments.
11:44Joe's dead and it's my fault.
11:45How else do you want me to say it?
11:46No, I think there could be another explanation.
11:51You know what?
11:51There isn't a day that goes by where I don't wish it was me instead of him.
11:55Dana, I'm so sorry.
11:57Please, what I have to tell you is really, really important.
11:59You know what?
12:00Leave me alone.
12:05He's in a really bad way.
12:07He's got it into his head that he killed Joe,
12:09that everything that happened was because of his neglect.
12:12It was so sad.
12:16I'm probably partly to blame for that.
12:18I gave him such a hard time when it happened.
12:20I was just really angry.
12:22Yes, he could have done things differently.
12:25The sad fact is that it was the cancer that killed Joe.
12:29Actually, that's why I'm here.
12:32I thought if you spoke to Dane, he might be more willing to help.
12:35I can't do that.
12:36You know I can't.
12:37I've already compromised myself by giving you those names.
12:39Yeah, I know, I know.
12:40But if you spoke to Dane, you'd be helping us both.
12:44He doesn't deserve to live with that guilt.
12:48Rachel, everyone I spoke to was completely sus about me.
12:51But I know if I can get it started,
12:53if I can get one person to sign, the rest will follow.
12:58Oh, come on.
12:59You know how important this is.
13:03Okay, I will talk to Dane.
13:05But only about what happened with Joe.
13:06I'm not going to mention the development.
13:08That's up to you.
13:09Yeah, understood.
13:13Okay.
13:15All right, can you meet me there in an hour?
13:17Yeah, yeah, okay.
13:18I'll see you then.
13:24That girl can be so petulant.
13:27It doesn't seem to matter what I say.
13:29She just refuses to listen.
13:30Yeah, but turning up at school like that was hardly going to work.
13:32You're just going to push her further away.
13:34But think about it from her point of view.
13:36She barely hears from you for six months,
13:37and then when she finally does, you let her down by lying.
13:40I know that.
13:41And why do you think I'm trying to say sorry?
13:44You need to give her space.
13:45Let her process what's happened.
13:47And then when she's ready to talk to you, listen to her.
13:50And I mean really listen.
13:51If she wants to shout at you, let her shout.
13:54You owe her that.
13:57I handled this really badly, haven't I?
14:02Okay.
14:03Well, if she needs space, then I'm all about space.
14:08I'll call in later.
14:09She will come round eventually.
14:17For someone you've hardly seen in years,
14:19you really know who to hit.
14:43Why can't you two just leave me alone?
14:45Dane, we're not here to blame you for anything.
14:48Joe's death was not your fault.
14:52What's this all about then?
14:54We think that toxic chemicals in the soil may have caused Joe's illness.
14:58We don't have any proof yet,
14:59but if you could release us Joe's medical records,
15:01we could get a proper investigation started.
15:03So it's because I let the kid play in the backyard.
15:05That's why I got sick.
15:06This is not about blame.
15:08It's just about finding answers.
15:11I know you love Joe.
15:13Anyone could see that.
15:14And I also know if you could prevent what happened, you would.
15:18Dane, I'm really sorry if I ever made you feel like this was your fault.
15:23Dane, we owe it to Joe and the other residents
15:26to have a proper investigation to prevent this ever happening again.
15:43I loved him so much.
15:45I know.
15:50Dane, we owe it to Joe.
15:51What do you need me to do?
15:56Sorry, excuse me.
15:59Hello?
16:02Yeah, this is Belle Taylor.
16:04Marie?
16:06Marie?
16:34Belle, I'm really sorry about last night.
16:36Well, let me guess, you were paid off,
16:37didn't think you could come back here?
16:38No, that's not it.
16:40That money was all above board, I swear.
16:42It was a relocation fee for my new job.
16:45I was never paid off.
16:49All right, well, why did you hang up on me last night?
16:53Well, when I left town, I was convinced that I was wrong about the contamination.
16:57Now, to hear from you that it's real and it's making people sick,
17:00well, I just, I don't know, lost it for a second.
17:06But I'm here now, and I want to help.
17:10So, you'd better bring me up to speed, huh?
17:15All right, well, right now, I'm in the middle of getting these release balls signed.
17:20I have a list of residents.
17:21They all live near the development site, and they've all been affected by cancer.
17:26Hopefully, once I get their medical records,
17:28I can prove that the cancer cluster is being caused by whatever is in the soil.
17:32I still can't get my head around this.
17:34How many people have you got on board?
17:36Only one so far, but the rest will follow, I'm sure of it.
17:38I'm about to head back out there now.
17:40Okay, well, why don't I take that one back to the hospital
17:43and make a start on getting the records released?
17:46Look, I know who to go to at the hospital,
17:48and I have to be careful about this.
17:51I've come all this way to help.
17:52There's no point in me just sitting around.
17:54If you don't mind, I'd just like to keep it myself.
17:56But look, we can definitely go to the hospital together
17:59once I've collected them all.
18:01Sounds like a plan.
18:02I'll wait for your call, then.
18:04Okay.
18:14Thanks for having me.
18:16Although I have to admit, it's been rather strange
18:18us being under the same roof after all these years.
18:21Yeah.
18:22You sure you don't want to stick around till this afternoon
18:24just in case she comes around?
18:26No, I think you're right about giving her some space.
18:28I'll come back down in a few days and see how she's then.
18:32All right, see ya.
18:38I'll come back down in a few days and see if we can bond or whatever.
18:45Okay.
18:45That's it.
18:47Just one week.
18:51A week it is, then.
18:54Yeah.
18:56Coffee?
19:03You do realise what it's going to be like
19:04having those two in the house together?
19:17Hey.
19:25She's not stupid.
19:26No way is she going to hand over any originals.
19:29Well, then you're no good to me.
19:30So this time you don't get paid.
19:32I...
19:33I...
19:36I only took your money in the first place because you gave me a word that the toxic materials
19:40would be removed.
19:41Relax, mate.
19:42It will.
19:44It's happening next week.
19:47As we can stall his tailor chick till then, there'll be nothing to find.
19:50I don't think that's going to be that easy.
19:51She's just a kid with a point to prove no one's going to listen to her.
19:56You better be telling me the truth about all this.
19:58Yeah, or what?
20:00If you're thinking of blowing the whistle, mate, think again.
20:02You're in this thing up to your neck now and you know it.
20:27Are you right?
20:51Next week on Home and Away.
20:53Bill!
20:55Where are the documents?
20:56What documents?
20:57The ones you took from Bill's car.
20:58I'm a teeny wean even over the list.
21:00Get in the car.
21:02I heard a rumour.
21:03It's about Nicole.
21:04So I'd like to offer you your old job back.
21:05Well, who do you think is right for him then?
21:07You?
21:08Well, I think we're using it off with you.
21:10What?
21:10Stop.
21:11I'm not ready for this.
21:12I heard that there's something going on at the site.
21:13I think they're planning on removing the waste.
21:15How much money are we talking about?
21:16$5,000.
21:17Al Stewart's obviously more stupid than he looks.
21:19You couldn't go straight if your life depended on it.
