00:00Hold me in your arms, don't let me grow, I want you to stay forever, look for each day, come
00:12and away.
00:17Bum Bum just left with the docks officer.
00:21How was he?
00:22He was upset and crying and he didn't want to let go of me.
00:29Why don't you have to check your blood sugar levels so you can give yourself a shot?
00:33Yeah, as long as I do it half an hour before breakfast.
00:36Which is about now.
00:38I know.
00:39Please, Mr Palmer, can't you just give me a second chance?
00:41Why would I give you a second chance?
00:43Hire rubbish and get rubbish in return.
00:45People warned me about you but I thought you deserved the benefit of the doubt.
00:49I just finished telling my brother what a good judge of character I am.
00:52Clearly I was wrong.
01:00I've never seen him like that before, he was unnecessarily mean and cruel.
01:05Well, he's been on the warpath with Romeo all day so it was never going to end well.
01:08At least I gave him a good serve, first time I've seen John Palmer at a loss for words.
01:13You all warned me what he was like.
01:14Hey, you gave him the benefit of the doubt, there's nothing wrong with that.
01:17Except that I misjudged him so completely.
01:20And please, don't say I told you so.
01:23No, I won't.
01:24But for what it's worth, I think you've made the right call.
01:26You know, you don't want to get involved in someone who's a, I don't know, be Mr Nice Guy one
01:30minute and bully the next, do you?
01:31Yeah.
01:32I know, you're right.
01:34I just thought he was different.
01:41How are the levels?
01:43Fine.
01:44This pricking my finger thing sucks, I don't think I'll ever get used to it.
01:48Ah, sure you will.
01:49Check this out, it says that a person with type 1 diabetes will have to give themselves over 20,000
01:53blood sugar tests in just 10 years.
01:55That's fantastic, I feel much better.
01:57They also have to give themselves over 14,500 insulin injections.
02:01Okay, I've read all this and all the other scary statistics, Geoff, so can we just stop it?
02:07Sorry, I didn't mean to upset you.
02:09I'm tired.
02:10I'm sorry.
02:12I'm gonna go to bed.
02:18Are you coming?
02:21Should I?
02:24Well, I just didn't want to show you anything.
02:29Geoffrey, I love snuggling with you.
02:31Yeah, I do too, it's just with all this health stuff.
02:33Come on then.
02:47What's that?
02:51I don't know.
02:51I don't know if anyone is able to come out of the room.
02:55I don't know if anyone is able to drink.
02:57I don't know if anyone is able to drink.
03:01Yeah, I don't know if anyone is eating.
03:01Who is that?
03:03Uh, that's just an unhappy client.
03:07What's she unhappy about?
03:09She reckons the day I took her out for a dive, the water was murky.
03:13I tried to explain that some things are beyond our control,
03:15but apparently that's not good enough.
03:17So are you going out to the farm today?
03:19Uh, no, I've got a few errands to run it down,
03:22so I won't get the farm on this.
03:23In that case, how about break here at the diner?
03:36Are you here to tell me something,
03:38or are you just here to scout my breakfast?
03:40Forensics Corp.
03:41They pulled a print off that scrap of paper from the kid's toy.
03:44Any matches?
03:45Not in our database.
03:46We haven't had any luck decoding those numbers either.
03:49Don't worry, I might get something off that boat today.
03:52A boat that's been underwater falling apart for months.
03:55Yeah, it won't have my breath.
03:56Every little bit helps.
03:59You coming?
04:00Oh, no, I've got to do some paperwork first,
04:02but don't give me a call if the divers pull up anything sooner.
04:05What are you having?
04:07And remember, don't hold back.
04:08It's my treat.
04:09Yeah, I'm not really hungry.
04:11Come on, you can do better than that.
04:12How about some eggs?
04:13So now you're going to order for me as well?
04:16Martha.
04:17Hello.
04:18Hey, did you hear the police are pulling up a refugee boat today?
04:22Really?
04:22Yeah.
04:24Um, so what can I get you?
04:26Uh, I'll have the big breakfast, thanks.
04:29I'll just have a coffee and a muffin thing.
04:31Okay, move it on.
04:36Are we going to talk about this?
04:40Martha, come on.
04:42You've been giving me the silent treatment for days.
04:45I think we made the wrong call.
04:47We never should have sent Bon Bon back with dogs.
04:50We made a decision based on what was best for him.
04:53No, you made a decision.
04:54Which you agreed to.
04:55Yeah, because you gave me no choice.
04:58I can't stop thinking about him, Hugo.
05:01A little boy without his mum and dad.
05:04It grates my heart.
05:05But I truly believed, and I still do, that Bum Bung is where he should be.
05:10With a foster family who can give him the emotional and cultural support he needs.
05:19It's not easy for you.
05:20I get that.
05:23But can we please just not let it come between us?
05:27Sure.
05:36Gina!
05:37Gina!
05:40I was hoping we could talk.
05:42I said everything I had to say yesterday.
05:44Now if you'll excuse me.
05:45Well, listen to me, please.
05:47Look, I'm truly sorry about what happened yesterday.
05:50If there was any way I could take it back, I would.
05:52Have you spoken to Romeo?
05:54I didn't think so.
05:56Well, you want to let me explain?
05:57Like you let Romeo explain why he didn't show up for work.
06:00I really have to go.
06:07Yes, but Charlie, don't you think I would have called if something bad had happened?
06:13I missed your call, that's it.
06:16Okay, okay, okay.
06:17I promise I will never leave my phone on silent ever again.
06:22Okay.
06:23Okay.
06:25Yes, I will see you later.
06:27Okay, bye.
06:29Oh, one down, 100 to go.
06:32Ah, she's just worried about you.
06:34Oh, but does she need to call every hour?
06:36I mean, it's a bit marching for Charlie.
06:39You hungry?
06:40It's a bigot since we slept in, so I'll let her make us both brunch.
06:42Mmm, looks great.
06:45And, uh, Geoffrey, where's my bacon?
06:47Sorry, root bacon's a once-in-a-while treat.
06:51But, hey, I was thinking we could hit the gym a little later on or go for a run or
06:54something.
06:55Let me guess, you read in one of these pamphlets it's important for diabetics to do regular exercise.
07:01Are you all right?
07:02Have you checked your levels this morning?
07:03Oh, my gosh.
07:04Geoffrey, will you stop with the levels?
07:06And while we're on the subject, I do not need round-the-clock supervision from you or Charlie or anyone.
07:12I'm just trying to get a handle on yourself.
07:13Yeah, well, I'm the one who needs to get a handle on it.
07:18I'm sorry.
07:21I'm going to go get something from the diner.
07:37Diver's still not back yet?
07:38No.
07:40Should be any minute now.
07:41What have they got?
07:42Not a lot.
07:43Like you said, the boat's been in pretty bad shape.
07:46Plus, the boys reckon it took a bad ring in that last storm we had.
07:49Yeah, okay.
07:49Surely they were able to retrieve something, anything?
07:52Bits and pieces.
07:53Mostly boat equipment, tools, that sort of thing.
07:57They did say something about a strongbox.
07:59They found it on the seabed.
08:01Might have been dumped overboard before the boat went down.
08:03That's better than a kick in the garts.
08:04Did they say what's in it?
08:05Not yet.
08:06It's got a pretty hefty lock on it, apparently.
08:08All right, well, tell the boys to get a move on.
08:10We haven't got all day.
08:13Space to dive, master.
08:14Come in.
08:22Hey.
08:22Hey, Jeff.
08:23You're going to hurt yourself lifting that.
08:24Yeah, it's all right.
08:25I don't know.
08:28How are you going anyway, mate?
08:29I haven't seen you in here for a while.
08:30Yeah, I've just been caught up with Ruby.
08:32Thanks.
08:32Ah, how's she coping?
08:35Yeah, not bad.
08:38And you?
08:39Are you hanging in there?
08:42Well, I know it's a lot for Ruby to deal with.
08:43I've been trying to make things easier for her, but it just feels like the more I try to do
08:47for her, the more annoyed she gets at me.
08:49Well, maybe don't do so much, mate.
08:52Yeah, well, my boyfriend, Tony, I'm supposed to look after her.
08:57Jeff, Ruby strikes me as a pretty independent 16-year-old, mate.
09:01I don't think she's going to go all helpless on you, you know?
09:03I don't think I've realised that by now.
09:06No, look, I know it sounds bad, but I can't just sit by and watch her go through all this
09:09without wanting to help.
09:11Granted, but you can't manage it for her either, mate.
09:15It's kind of hard to back off when we live in the same house.
09:19Sorry, I know this must be really weird for you.
09:21I'm talking about Ruby, you're Xavier's uncle.
09:23Only if Ruby and Xavier are still going out, mate.
09:25Look, seriously, if you want my advice, I'd suggest that you just, I don't know, give Ruby a bit of
09:30space and see what happens, mate.
09:33Well, I say let him in.
09:34He cares about you and he wants to be there for you.
09:37Really?
09:40It just feels like he's becoming more of my carer than my boyfriend.
09:45Living with diabetes is a huge adjustment.
09:48For both of you, he's trying to find his way as much as you are.
09:52Yeah, well, that's not fair.
09:53We've been together a week, we should be revelling in our romantic bliss,
09:57not worrying about sugar levels and insulin injections and how many grams of fat I put in my mouth.
10:03Have you talked to Geoff about this?
10:04No.
10:06I've been grumpy enough.
10:08He should know by now.
10:10It doesn't work that way.
10:11Emoting does not take the place of talking.
10:16Yeah, I know.
10:17It's just hard, that's all.
10:20I just feel like everything in my life needs to revolve around my stupid diabetes.
10:24I know it's hard.
10:26And I know it's scary.
10:28Which is exactly the reason that you should talk to Geoff.
10:31Tell him what you need.
10:33Tell him what you don't need.
10:34The main thing is don't shut him out.
10:40Oh, John, I'm really not up for this.
10:42No, look, I won't take up much of your time, I promise.
10:47I just thought you might like to know that I offered Romeo his job back.
10:52Okay.
10:55Unfortunately, he wasn't inclined to accept it,
10:57but I'm hoping that he will come around once he's had the chance to cool off a bit.
11:02And did you do that for my benefit or his?
11:05Well, there's no harm in saying yours and his, is there?
11:09Look, Gina, I understand what you saw yesterday was disappointing.
11:13And I know that sometimes I can come across as tough and inflexible.
11:18And dominating springs to mind.
11:20Point taken.
11:21But what I'm saying here is I made a mistake yesterday.
11:26I crossed a line and I can see that now thanks to you.
11:30And I'm, I'm, I'm wondering if you'd just give me another chance.
11:34John, I'm not here to change you.
11:36You are who you are.
11:38Yes, but that doesn't mean I can't change my own behavior.
11:40Look, Romeo isn't the first stuff-up I've made.
11:43God knows I made a big enough mess with my stepson.
11:47I just reckon it's not too late for this old dog to learn a few new tricks.
12:03Hello?
12:05Dorothy, hi.
12:07Yeah, yeah, I can talk.
12:08I'm just doing a bit of spring cleaning.
12:09How can I help you?
12:13I thought they found him at foster home.
12:17Okay, but what's that got to do with me?
12:19I thought it was funny.
12:34Done a good job with these fakes.
12:35Well, if we're lucky, maybe forensics can trace where they're made.
12:38Yeah, just like the old treasure match for our fingerprint.
12:44What's this?
12:46It's part of the engine, as far as I can tell, anyway.
12:52These look like numbers to you.
12:56Marine serial numbers, maybe.
12:57Yeah, which means they've got to be on record somewhere.
13:00Yeah, write this down.
13:01We'll call it in.
13:02What are the chances this is registered locally?
13:04Well, if they're smart, less than nil.
13:06There's got to be a record on file somewhere.
13:09We're not going to stop searching until we find it.
13:14Please, come in.
13:21Martha!
13:22Gosh, talk about big decisions.
13:23Do I keep walking and he stays asleep?
13:25Or do I take him home, put him to bed and risk him waking up?
13:29Sorry, I'm probably not the best person to ask.
13:31Well, still, it's good to workshop these things.
13:35Are you okay?
13:37Kind of.
13:40Not really.
13:42They've asked me to reconsider fostering Ben Bang.
13:45Apparently the family he's with isn't working out.
13:47So what are you going to do?
13:49Well, Hugo's already made it clear he doesn't think it's a good idea.
13:52What do you think?
13:55Honestly, I'd have him back in a heartbeat.
13:58He's got no one, Rach.
14:00But it's already caused so much conflict between Hugo and me.
14:03Well, do you think maybe there's something else going on there?
14:05Maybe he thinks that it's going to be too traumatic when you have to give Ben Bang up.
14:09I've already thought about that, but this isn't about me.
14:12I just feel like I've let him down once and I don't want to do that again.
14:16I understand what you're saying.
14:18I guess I'm not the one that you have to convince.
14:21I just feel so wrong that it's come down to this.
14:24If a child needs help, shouldn't Hugo be able to see that?
14:41Hey.
14:42You made it?
14:44This looks good.
14:46Uh-huh.
14:46And not a gram of fat or sugar in sight.
14:51So would you like a sushi roll?
14:53Yeah, sure.
14:55Okay, so the good news is my levels have been completely on track the last few days,
15:00and Dr. Madden says if I keep going like this, I'm going to be a star patient.
15:07Is there any soy sauce?
15:10Uh-huh.
15:13And I bought this diabetes cookbook this afternoon.
15:15I thought I might try one of the recipes tonight.
15:18Yeah, whatever.
15:19Um, Jeff, I'm trying to make an effort here.
15:23Yeah, I know. It looks good. It looks really good.
15:26No, I'm talking about my diabetes.
15:28Well, I thought you didn't want me to make a fuss about the whole thing.
15:32And I thought you wanted me to be more open about it.
15:38Okay.
15:41Alright.
15:42How about we start again, yeah?
15:44Yeah.
15:45Okay.
15:45Hi.
15:46Hi.
15:47Hi.
15:48Okay, so, um, here's the thing.
15:53I love that you're my boyfriend.
15:57It's just sometimes I feel like you're becoming my diabetes watchdog.
16:04Yeah, well, it's because I care about you. I can't help it.
16:06Yeah, I know.
16:08It's...
16:09It's just sometimes it kind of kills the romance, you know?
16:18I'm sorry.
16:20I won't be making that mistake again.
16:24And I promise not to get all cranky and offensive when you're just trying to be nice.
16:41It was so nice to have a walk, but I've really got to get back to some work.
16:45Oh, I'm sure I could wait another hour or two.
16:47Now, look, I promised I'd make it up to you, and I'm going to do just that starting today.
16:51What are you up to?
16:53You feeling daring, darling?
16:55I'm feeling a little nervous.
16:57I thought with all this talk about rodeo and surfing classes that it was, um, high time we got you
17:03out there on board.
17:09I don't know how I let you talk me into this.
17:12Must have been my rugged good looks and charm.
17:15Come on, you ready to hit the waves? I'm a very good teacher.
17:22Somehow I get the feeling I'm about 30 years too late.
17:26Oh, rubbish.
17:27Come on.
17:28Come on.
17:38Come on.
17:39Come on.
17:56Sorry, Ray, it's just been flat out in here all afternoon.
17:59No, that's all right.
18:00As long as this pram keeps moving, he seems to be happy enough.
18:02All right, let's go, eh?
18:07You ought to be kidding me.
18:09What happened to I should have listened?
18:11Oh, it looks like she has, just not to you.
18:14Can you believe she said they're laughing it up with this bloke
18:16after what she said last night?
18:19This is trouble, I've got to say something.
18:20No, hey.
18:21No, Gina's a big girl, she can look after herself.
18:24And whether we like it or not, this is none of our business.
18:28Yeah, but Rach, come on.
18:29Yeah, but nothing, come on, we've got to get this guy home.
18:39Hey, I was about to send out a search party.
18:41Where have you been?
18:42Down at the police station, filling out paperwork.
18:46What sort of paperwork?
18:49Doc's called and asked if I'd reconsider fostering BamBang.
18:53I said yes.
18:54I know we agreed against it.
18:56That's right, we did.
18:57He was miserable with the other family, Hugo.
18:59I couldn't turn my back on him, not again.
19:01Martha, come on.
19:02I'm sorry if you're not happy, but I've made my decision
19:05and I hope in time you'll realise it was the right one.
19:21We got it.
19:22That serial number we found connected that boat to a company.
19:26Well, what is it?
19:27Best Fruit Imports.
19:28It's an Aussie company operating out of Indonesia.
19:30Small time, nothing major, but definitely fits the profile.
19:34Best Fruit Imports.
19:35I've heard that name before.
19:44The logbook we found down at Hugo Austin's boat shed.
19:47Best Fruit Imports is one of the invoices,
19:49which means potentially there's a connection
19:50between the people smuggling and Austin.
19:52What do you want to do now?
19:55Let's go pay Austin a visit.
19:57Let's go pay Austin a visit.
20:12I thought we could just get some takeaway.
20:16Okay, well, here's the thing.
20:19Maybe if you'd communicated your intention,
20:21we might have been able to discuss it first.
20:26Look, just answer me this.
20:29Is there anything I can say
20:31to make you change your mind about Bambang?
20:33Anything at all?
20:35No.
20:37I'll get it.
20:43Hi.
20:44Hello.
20:45Is Hugo home?
20:46Um, yeah, he is...
20:48Sorry, you are...
20:50I'm Susie.
20:51His wife.
21:04Next week on Home and Away.
21:06Liam needs a place to crash,
21:08so I said he could have my old road.
21:09If Liam stays, then I'm gone.
21:11I'm shocked by how much I don't know about you.
21:13You're strolling with my life.
21:15Your life is with me.
21:16I know we have to get the kid first.
21:17I know what has to happen.
21:19Look how easily things can go wrong.
21:20Bambang could already be at risk.
21:21He's just a child and we're using him as a patient.
21:23Wait!
21:24You're under arrest.
21:25Do you have any sense of human decency?
21:27Apparently not.
21:28I won my ticket to Chicago.
21:29Whatever loose ends there are,
21:31sort them out.
21:32It's something you haven't done before.
21:35And if you miss an episode of Home and Away,
21:37you can catch up.
