00:00Previously on Shortland Street.
00:01You can hold your baby?
00:02No.
00:03Why?
00:04Because it is.
00:05I swear I had no idea.
00:07I came back to tell you.
00:08You can keep burying your head in the sand.
00:10Be played for an idiot.
00:11But I sure as hell won't be doing that.
00:15You were going to take my child away.
00:17Monique was never going to go.
00:18But you would have.
00:19Yes!
00:20Because if that was me, I'd be up there with my baby and the woman that I nearly lost.
00:30Look, don't be mad at me because I didn't say anything.
00:33Mon needed someone in her corner, so.
00:35We're good.
00:36Someone please tell my mother that Monique is not going to cut it.
00:40Great name for a Love Arlene contestant.
00:42She's looking all good.
00:44Can I just have a quick look at your incision site?
00:48What's the vibe, Blackout?
00:50Well, the vibe is pretty weird.
00:52You know, with Arlo getting attacked and Emmett.
00:55Yeah, well, at least people aren't talking about it still.
00:57They definitely are.
00:59Oh, sorry.
01:00And you know, with me being reassigned to you guys.
01:04Is Nas even here?
01:06Yeah, he's here.
01:07He's keeping a low profile, catching up on paperwork.
01:10Wise move, I should know.
01:12What about you, Steph?
01:13Totally on the wall path.
01:14Everyone's avoiding her.
01:17You're looking all good.
01:18How's the pain?
01:18Um, just like numb around the cut.
01:21Is that normal?
01:22Yeah, totally normal.
01:23Some sensation might come back after a while.
01:26Okay.
01:27So, are you guys together or what?
01:31Only just change her and she's wet through again.
01:38Hey.
01:39Hey, I wanted to see how you...
01:41Whoa, what happened there?
01:45Okay, well, I'm guessing it was something to do with Monique.
01:49Nas, I'm so sorry.
01:51I can't believe she did this to you.
01:52She didn't do this.
01:53You know what I mean.
01:55I knew there was something shady about her.
01:56How could anyone be that selfish?
01:58And to you...
01:58There's a lot more to me.
01:59And you knew?
02:00And she made you keep her secret all this time?
02:02That must have been so intense.
02:03Poppy, just stop.
02:06Sorry.
02:07Just...
02:08Look, anything you need.
02:10Okay?
02:10I'm in.
02:11I don't want to talk about it.
02:12Okay.
02:13Okay, that's fine.
02:14And I don't need your pity.
02:14I just want to get on with my work.
02:16Okay, then.
02:18I have a very sweet eight-year-old
02:20who busted her ankle to Trampoline Park.
02:22I hate those places.
02:24I know you do.
02:25I'd love to give her the best paed surgeon.
02:27Yeah, look, I have to go.
02:28I've got to...
02:28Okay.
02:29Okay, but it's a really neat break.
02:31So it's Harris?
02:33It might be type three.
02:34But what would I know?
02:39So, big news, eh?
02:41Yeah.
02:42That's a girl.
02:43It's Marty's baby.
02:44No name yet.
02:44No, not that.
02:46Oh, Arlott.
02:48Yeah, that guy was a rat bastard,
02:50but who would do that?
02:50No, I meant about the new CEO.
02:53Me.
02:54Did you just do Jason?
02:56No.
02:57But I'm your new pig.
03:00You've got this.
03:01Well, I'll see you soon.
03:05Hey, I just wanted to offer
03:06if there's anything Emmett needs.
03:08Uh, no, we're good.
03:12What can I do?
03:14He's stable.
03:15Have you changed the vent settings?
03:16I mean, is he fighting sedation?
03:17How's his team?
03:18His gases are stable,
03:19but I'm not going to wean him off any time soon.
03:22His fever is down a little,
03:24so hopefully he should turn a corner soon.
03:26And did Bonnie happen to mention
03:27when she'd let me back in?
03:29Let's just give her a bit more time.
03:30She's literally had all night.
03:32And she's still really struggling
03:33to get her head around it all.
03:34Well, she can't just keep me out like this.
03:36Surely you could say something.
03:37It's not my place.
03:38She's his daughter.
03:39Well, the actual patient named me next of kin.
03:43I could fight this.
03:44Please don't, Sage.
03:45Bonnie's had a shock,
03:46and ultimately it's her call
03:48who she allows it.
03:51God.
03:53Hello, how are you?
03:56Hello, very well.
03:57Hello.
03:58Have you heard about Arlo?
04:00Yeah, that he's a lying,
04:01cheating, rat-faced little weasel.
04:02No, I mean...
04:03And do you know how many flying figs I give?
04:05Okay, I...
04:05Oh, let me tell you.
04:06None.
04:07Nada.
04:07And do you know why?
04:08Because he doesn't deserve anything nice.
04:10He doesn't deserve a nice girlfriend,
04:11like me.
04:13Have you seen his eyesore of a car?
04:15Because I am itching to scratch it with his ears.
04:17Okay, um...
04:18Arlo's on the HDU.
04:19What?
04:20Yeah, because someone beat him up.
04:21Why didn't you tell me?
04:27Do you know of anyone who'd want to hurt him?
04:30I mean, he wasn't exactly popular, but...
04:32I mean, I didn't know who'd do this.
04:35Tracks with some other assaults in the area.
04:36Yeah?
04:38Hey.
04:40I just heard.
04:41Is he...
04:42Touch and go for a minute,
04:43but he's hanging in there.
04:44Let's take a look at his admission record.
04:46His roster.
04:47Anything that might help?
04:48We keep those over at the nurse's desk.
04:51I can stay here if you need to.
04:53Ta.
04:53Back in a sec.
04:57James, mate.
04:59No one deserves this.
05:04Where is he?
05:05I need to see him.
05:06Hey, it's okay.
05:06No.
05:08Oh, my God.
05:09It's horrific.
05:10He's going to be all right.
05:10How do you know that?
05:11Have you seen him?
05:12No, don't you touch me.
05:14I know what you did, Philly.
05:15And just because Al is...
05:16Because he's...
05:17Do you...
05:17No.
05:19Go away.
05:23Chris, just the man.
05:25What do you need?
05:26Pull up a pew.
05:27Get comfy.
05:29I'm needed elsewhere, so...
05:30Well, I just wanted to check in.
05:32See how we're tracking.
05:33With what?
05:33Well, my end of quarter report will detail any spending...
05:37I meant on a more personal note.
05:40There's nothing to say, Paul.
05:42We never got to talk it through.
05:43It was a fait accompli.
05:45But like I said, you literally told me to go for it with the board.
05:48You said that.
05:50Right.
05:51Wait.
05:54Just to reiterate, IRL, there's no hard feelings?
05:58I have patience waiting.
05:59Exactly.
06:00You made that super clear.
06:01You're best where you are.
06:02I can elevate my skill set, so I took that to mean I should.
06:06Whatever you say.
06:07We make a good team, Chris.
06:08We prove that.
06:09I'd love it if you'd join me when I address the staff later.
06:12No, thank you.
06:15Like, I am the one who stuck my neck out for Emma, and Bonnie's all like, oh, thanks
06:18for nothing.
06:19Don't let the door hit you on the way out.
06:21Well, she'll be overrun when she has her little hissy.
06:23Oh, my gosh.
06:26Monique's baby's Marty's baby?
06:28Oh, that's cook day.
06:30Yeah.
06:31Now, one day Marty and Nas had their beef.
06:33It's crazy.
06:34Well, it's about time she told everyone.
06:37What?
06:38What?
06:38You knew, and you didn't say anything?
06:41How did Marty find out?
06:42We've been working here this whole time, and Nas has been like, it's my baby.
06:46Yeah, but this is all like...
06:47She's just through here.
06:48I'll show you the x-ray.
06:50It's probably best if you can't film.
06:53No way.
06:53Hey, hi.
06:54Seeing a lot of standing around and a lot of working, so unless you've got something to
06:57say, I suggest you get back to it.
07:00Now.
07:02I'm channelling my inner Emma.
07:04Quite a charm.
07:05I just think it would be less disruptive if you just...
07:07Look at the notes.
07:08Check the images.
07:09Poppy.
07:10You said you wanted to work.
07:11Not like this.
07:12Look, since when do you care what people think?
07:14It's humiliating.
07:15It's going to follow me around forever.
07:17One step at a time, eh?
07:18What sticks?
07:19Poppy, our motorcycle service bike just come in.
07:22Poppy.
07:22Oh, hey, how's he met?
07:23Stable, but Bonnie is...
07:24Don't let it stick.
07:30Hey, how are you?
07:32I heard about...
07:33Hey, we've got some cheeseball marketing guys, our CEO.
07:35How did that happen?
07:37Well, he took his shot and the board went with it.
07:41Idiots.
07:42Let's talk about you.
07:43You're going to let him take it?
07:45It's a done deal.
07:47So...
07:47Look, this roster is a mess.
07:49Naz will be leaving us soon.
07:51What have you met?
07:51Phil and Izzy, they're going to need some study time because obviously the exams are just around the corner.
07:56I know that your hands are filled with Emmett and Arlo.
07:58God knows what's happening there.
07:59Don't.
08:01It must have been such a...
08:02I said don't.
08:03Okay.
08:05But I'm here for you.
08:13Because judging by the state of this, I am going to have to ask you to pull some double shifts.
08:22And we are on.
08:28And I am trying so hard to not be mad at Bonnie, but Uncle Sage was very frustrated.
08:34Yes, he does.
08:35Oh, you should be mad.
08:37She's way out of line.
08:38You should march down there.
08:39Emmett wouldn't want that.
08:40Was she considering what Emmett wants?
08:42It's my own damn fault.
08:43I should have called her earlier.
08:47She's like, yes, look at her.
08:50Is that Martin's note that you have?
08:52I'm afraid that you get your mum's hair and legs.
08:55Oh, did you say hairy legs?
08:57Hair and legs, you freak.
08:58You're a freak.
09:00Shush.
09:02Anyway, no shoulds.
09:03You did what you thought was right.
09:05No, I had Chris going, follow your gut.
09:07And then Emma was like, don't you dare call Bonnie.
09:10And I'm just like, oh, listen to me.
09:13She just needs a...
09:13At home, I know.
09:14I was going to say slap in the face.
09:16She's got every right to hate me.
09:19But you don't do you, baby.
09:22We had a lot of ups and downs, Arlo.
09:24More downs, if I'm completely honest.
09:28But in spite of it all, I hope you get well soon.
09:33Oh, my God, I'm so pathetic.
09:37You treated me like crap.
09:39Why do I care so much?
09:42You're not pathetic.
09:44And you're way too good for him.
09:46And me.
09:47Yeah.
09:48You two are perfect for each other.
09:50I don't want to be like him.
09:52How many cover-ups did you do for him?
09:53Like, how many nurses were there?
09:55One?
09:55Five?
09:55No, no, you're right.
09:57I saw how Arlo was treating you,
09:59and I just went along with it.
10:03Why?
10:04Because I'm gutless.
10:07I should have stood up to him sooner.
10:08I wish I had.
10:10You lied to my face,
10:11and you let him gaslight me.
10:13Yeah, if I could go back and change all of that.
10:16Libby, I swear,
10:17I wasn't always like this.
10:20What changed?
10:24I lost my way.
10:28I just hope to hell I can find my way back.
10:32I'm really sorry, Libby.
10:34Okay, I want to do better.
10:35Be better.
10:40Well, I hope you get there.
10:45Cody.
10:46Coming in?
10:47No, you wanted to talk to me before about your brother.
10:50You made it clear that you weren't interested.
10:52Sorry, it wasn't like that.
10:54Chris.
10:56See you in the hub later.
10:59See you in the hub later.
11:00Informal vibe.
11:01Just thought I'd give the team a bit of face time.
11:03Okay.
11:05Oh, look at you two.
11:07Hey.
11:07Dial-off-a-love-a-little, Miss Marty and Mon.
11:10You are a delicious surprise.
11:12She woke up crying after two minutes.
11:14I thought I'd give mine a break, but I don't know.
11:16Yeah, it's probably gas.
11:19Here you go.
11:19Oh, well, at least you know she's yours.
11:22A bit melanin deficient.
11:23Oh, have you got a cloth?
11:25Uh, no, sorry.
11:27Oh, there it goes.
11:28Did she spill down my back?
11:30No, no, she didn't.
11:31Hey, darling.
11:33I know I deal with kids all the time, but it's different when it's your own.
11:36Yeah.
11:38Sorry, I can take her.
11:40No, no, no.
11:41She's going to help me with my emails.
11:43Oh, it must have been a shock for you, eh?
11:45One minute you're just doing your thing, and then next minute, boom, you're a daddy.
11:48Yeah.
11:49Could have been good to get a bit of warning.
11:51No matter how it happened to you here now, right?
11:54I'd kill to be in that position.
11:55Yeah, I know.
11:56I'm sorry.
11:57It's just, like you said, it's a shock.
12:00Yeah, well, are you going to waste your time being salty and get over it like we know you're
12:04going to anyway?
12:05Or are you going to jump into this special time and enjoy it?
12:09I know which one I would pick.
12:11Here you go, sweetheart.
12:15Thanks, Susan.
12:28So, she's still locked up, then?
12:30Yep.
12:32I can see why Emma didn't want to keep her in the loop.
12:35She's just upset.
12:38Does she always bring her drama like this?
12:41Well, I mean, she can be as angry as she likes, but you were just doing what he asked.
12:45Try telling her that.
12:48Well, I took up the perfect relationship anyway.
12:53She better not start aiming her anger at him.
12:56Oh, no.
12:57Well, if she's been this toxic to you, then that could totally mess up his recovery.
13:03For what it's worth, I think you're doing awesome.
13:05I would literally be crying at home, watching Ray's your voice.
13:09I don't know what that is.
13:10It's Hilary Duff, and you've been missing out.
13:12There's no way you'd be at home.
13:13You'd be down there running ED like a military operation.
13:17Yeah.
13:18Yeah, probably.
13:19And I should really get back there.
13:20But if you want to fill that glaring gap in your cinematic history later, let me know.
13:25Thanks.
13:27Being here seems as painful.
13:29That's the spirit.
13:30I don't know.
13:34Us.
13:36Excuse me.
13:39Hey, look.
13:40I know emotions ran pretty high yesterday.
13:42We all probably said things we didn't mean.
13:44I just wanted to...
13:45No, I made everything I said.
13:46No, I made everything I did.
13:50Okay.
13:53So.
13:57Are you guys here for the welcome address?
13:59Oh.
14:00You got a good spot.
14:02So, hold tight.
14:03Start in a minute.
14:04It was compulsory.
14:06And the worst part is it was you.
14:08I'm sorry.
14:08I'll do better next time.
14:09I've met a million Arlos.
14:10I've seen a million boys clubs.
14:12You're the last person I expected to be pulled into the swamp.
14:15And I won't stand for any toxicity in my department.
14:17Of course.
14:19Don't pull that crap again.
14:25Hey.
14:27Reckon he's going to hand out some Friars vouchers or something?
14:30Yeah, I don't know.
14:30It would you back, so if she ever finishes...
14:32Done.
14:36Hey, you guys, um...
14:37You know, that whole Arlo thing, it's not who I am, eh?
14:41You know, I'm...
14:42Let things get out of hand and...
14:43Come on.
14:45Hey, we've got to have a happy hour later on my shelf.
14:47You guys are keen?
14:48Yeah, we've got to get going.
14:50Here for the speech?
14:52Sorry?
14:54Right.
14:56Only at the top, eh?
14:58Something like that.
15:04Hey.
15:06Sorry, I thought I just told you...
15:08No, no, no, no, you're good, you're good.
15:09Look, I just wanted to apologize for being so distracted when we spoke.
15:14You know, there's a lot going on, but...
15:16When isn't there?
15:17Yeah, true that.
15:19I also wanted to say...
15:22I do remember Toby.
15:26Okay.
15:29Particularly dry sense of humor, if I recall.
15:32Yeah.
15:34Even better.
15:36He was into the clean.
15:38Yeah, don't remind me.
15:40Well, I was impressed.
15:42Someone so young could be into something so legendary.
15:48You found this old record player in a garage sale, and he would just thrash this song, um...
15:54Beatnik!
15:54Yeah, yeah, we would pay with them all in our flat, and he would just play to all hours.
16:01My brother did the same thing.
16:03McLean?
16:04Oh, I wish, no.
16:06Bross.
16:07Who?
16:08Good answer.
16:09Yeah.
16:14I am so sorry you lost your brother, and I am so sorry I couldn't do more to save him.
16:28Oh, I'm sorry.
16:30It's okay.
16:32Oh.
16:34Such an idiot.
16:35What's going on?
16:37Yeah.
16:41I hated you.
16:46You kept on living, and everyone in the hospital was...
16:49It was just business as usual, and Toby was...
16:52Gone.
16:54Yeah, it wasn't fair.
17:01I thought that hating you would...
17:04Keep him alive.
17:08Your brother will always be a part of you.
17:12But there are so many other ways to honor his memory.
17:16You can play that awesome record.
17:20You talk about it.
17:23You can talk to me.
17:26Whenever you will.
17:45What are you doing here?
17:46Can I please have a word?
17:47Why?
17:47Now.
17:48I'll be right here if you just give us a minute.
17:55Chris has been giving you updates, and I specifically asked to be left alone.
17:59We both know how stubborn Emmett can be.
18:01And there's no blame game, because right now we need to focus on his care as a team.
18:05A team?
18:06He nominated me next of kin, and I've been involved with his care from the get-go, okay?
18:10And I deserve to be in here, too.
18:12A team means communicating with each other.
18:14I was only respecting Emmett's wishes.
18:16A team means not lying to each other for how long was it?
18:19Weeks?
18:20Months?
18:21I know, but...
18:22A team doesn't allow a cancer patient to get on a plane to the other side of the world...
18:25I tried to get him to stay.
18:27...when the fano has no idea what's going on.
18:28You know what he's like.
18:29He digs his heels in.
18:30Yeah.
18:31He's a belligerent older asshole, but you should have known better.
18:34I asked him multiple times if he wanted to contact you, and he didn't.
18:37Uh-huh.
18:37And if he dies now?
18:39Don't say that.
18:40And I didn't get to say goodbye?
18:42Then that's on you.
18:48You want to know why no one called you?
18:50It's because you're always so harsh on him.
18:53You don't get to weigh in on our relationship.
18:56Did you ever call and check up on him?
18:58Did you ever notice that anything was off while you guys were in Canada?
19:01No, because I've been here every step of the way, on my own, supporting him through chemo.
19:04Oh, what?
19:05So you want a medal or something?
19:06No, I want some respect!
19:08Okay, I am his next of kin!
19:10You are not whānau.
19:11You will never be whānau.
19:12But I am the one...
19:13No, this ends now.
19:14I'm taking you off the next of kin thing.
19:16Oh.
19:17And I am banning you from my dad's care, so you can leave now.
19:19Please go.
19:21Did you not hear me?
19:22Get out!
19:38Hi.
19:39How was it out there?
19:40I saw Nars.
19:42I saw Nars.
19:42And?
19:43Want to talk to me?
19:46Um, just you.
19:49Okay.
19:50Now, now.
19:53Do you want me to get the nurse again?
19:55No.
19:56No.
19:56Um, I need to...
19:58Can I just, like, figure this out eventually?
20:00You okay?
20:05Okay.
20:08Come on.
20:09Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on.
20:10We can do it.
20:13I've always quite liked Audrey.
20:17Audrey?
20:18For a name.
20:19My grandma on my dad's side.
20:21Mm, yes, that is definitely giving grandma.
20:24Oh, come on.
20:26Audrey Strutter.
20:27That's cute.
20:28No, it's not.
20:29That's a hard no.
20:30Well, surely I have a little bit of leverage here.
20:33Wow.
20:35Okay.
20:37No to Audrey, but...
20:41Baby can have your last name.
20:44What?
20:46If you want.
20:48Oh, um...
20:49Yeah, no, we don't have to talk about it.
20:51We don't have to talk about this now.
20:52No.
20:54You should try the football hold, the one I showed you.
20:57That might help.
21:03Hey, I brought popcorn.
21:05It's time for a Hilary Duff marathon.
21:08Hey.
21:10What's going on?
21:12I thought I might as well start moving Monique's stuff.
21:15Do we think we need to do that right now?
21:17Won't take long.
21:18Only needs to go one floor down.
21:20Okay.
21:20How about we just...
21:21Just take a second, though.
21:23Hey.
21:24Can I get you a tea, maybe?
21:25Or, like, something stronger?
21:26I'm fine.
21:28Okay.
21:28Yeah.
21:29Um, hey.
21:30Hey.
21:31Just...
21:32Just take a breath.
21:34I'm sorry.
21:35I know.
21:37I just can't look at this stuff.
21:39I know.
21:40It must be really hard.
21:42He's taken it all.
21:44My entire life.
21:46If I get how it could feel like that.
21:48My family have basically abandoned me.
21:50Monique and our baby.
21:52That was my family.
21:53And he's taken it.
21:55I have nothing.
21:57No.
21:59Hey, that's not true.
22:00You've got me.
22:05Whoa, whoa, whoa.
22:06What are you doing?
22:08I thought you were...
22:09I was trying to support you.
22:12Because you're my friend and you're going through a hard time.
22:15I'm so sorry.
22:15I got confused.
22:16I just...
22:16It's fine.
22:18Look, I'm such an idiot.
22:20So...
22:20Don't worry about it.
22:21What, you're going?
22:22I think maybe you need some space right now.
22:25Look, Poppy, I'm sorry, but...
22:26I get that you're going through a hard time.
22:28But I'm not a consolation prize.
22:35Oh.
