00:00Will the bad boy win her innocent heart?
00:04Didn't think I could find a love like that
00:09And will he say goodbye to the one he loves to follow his dreams?
00:14I love you.
00:14I love you too.
00:16Seven's new Home and Away is next.
00:20Previously on Home and Away
00:23Alf told me you weren't feeling too good so I baked you my famous chicken and kiwi fruit casserole.
00:30Oh, there, there, there, there, there. It's gonna be alright.
00:35Ah, sort of interrupt.
00:38You'll have to find yourself a new housemate because I'm moving out.
00:41Are you breaking up with me?
00:43Yes.
00:45I'm sorry.
00:48I'm completely lost.
00:50That's a pretty good place to start a conversation.
00:58So what are you angry about?
01:01I don't know.
01:03Everything, everyone, myself.
01:07I don't know who I am anymore.
01:09I mean, I used to be a pretty generous person.
01:13I'd never hold a grudge.
01:14I'd always try to see the good in people.
01:15You know, forgive and forget.
01:17Nice.
01:19But tough to do sometimes.
01:21Yeah, well, that's who I used to be anyway.
01:24I don't know what happened to that guy.
01:26I don't know where he went.
01:28I'm sure he's still in there somewhere.
01:31It doesn't feel like it.
01:34And I'm taking it out on everyone who gets in my way.
01:36And that's not fair.
01:37I mean, the person I should be mad at is myself.
01:40Well, if you're gonna forgive and forget, maybe you should start here.
01:43Don't be so hard on yourself.
01:45Yeah, well, I can't help it.
01:47I'm trying to be the person I used to be.
01:49Well, that person might not have disappeared forever.
01:53Look at me.
01:54I'm meant to be cleaning the floors.
01:56But I'm putting that off.
01:58I'm doing something else.
01:59But that doesn't mean that I won't go back to the floors eventually.
02:03Actually, that's a bad example.
02:04But you know what I mean.
02:05No, but vacuum cleaning isn't your job.
02:06You're here to talk to people like me and you're doing that.
02:09You've got a purpose and you stick to it.
02:12I want to know what my purpose is.
02:16The meaning of life.
02:18It's a big question.
02:21Humongous.
02:23And sometimes we get sidetracked by looking for the humongous answers.
02:28But the track is still there.
02:31Just don't get run over by other trains trying to find it.
02:36What if I never find it?
02:41I'm a reverend, not a fortune teller.
02:44Specific answers are something I can't help you with.
02:47If God could give me those, I'd win Lotto.
02:50Buy a new vacuum cleaner.
02:53You've realised that you're on the wrong track and you're trying to find the right one.
02:58That's a pretty huge first step.
03:01Now you'll need faith.
03:04Faith that you'll find whatever it is you're looking for.
03:22Now, Miles, you know I'm not one to gossip.
03:24Never.
03:25And I wouldn't even mention it.
03:26But if there's a friend in need, there's no point in keeping quiet, is there?
03:30I mean, there is a big difference between sticking your nose in and wanting to help a person.
03:34Come on, Claire, please.
03:36It's Leah, the poor pet.
03:37She's at the end of a tether.
03:39What? What do you mean?
03:40Well, after everything that's happened, she's scared to put a foot outside the house.
03:43Well, maybe she's just nervous.
03:44No, it's more than nerves.
03:46She's petrified.
03:48The very idea of going outside is more than she can cope with.
03:52She said so herself.
03:53She just wants to close the door and lock the entire world out.
03:58Well, we can't leave her like that.
03:59We've got to do something.
04:03I was passing by.
04:04I thought I'd drop in to see if you needed anything.
04:07Colleen's needing to see.
04:11Um, yeah.
04:13Yeah.
04:13She said that you weren't being yourself.
04:16That's a nice way of putting it.
04:20Rachel thinks I'm losing it.
04:23She said that?
04:24Really?
04:25Because it doesn't sound something like Rachel would say.
04:28She thinks I've got agoraphobia, which is a doctorly way of saying it.
04:33What do you think?
04:37I'm scared to go outside.
04:41I don't know, that sounds so stupid, but the thought of it is just more than I can handle.
04:48Oh, yeah.
04:49Of course you're scared.
04:50I mean, you've just gone through an incredibly traumatic experience.
04:54Maybe it's just about getting back on that horse.
04:57No?
04:59Maybe once you go outside, it won't be that bad.
05:03I think we can.
05:07Well, not even to go and see her.
05:10I don't think I'm ever going to be able to leave the house again.
05:35Chicken and kiwi fruit casserole.
05:37Colleen, you are a genius.
05:39Tell her you said that she'll be very happy.
05:43Miles, I don't want to go to a counsellor.
05:46I don't want to be crazy either.
05:48Well, Leo, it's not like you're running through town in the nutty.
05:52You have every right to be scared.
05:54It's completely normal.
05:58If you're being chased by a tiger, you're going to be scared, but you're going to run.
06:03But don't you let these jerks get in the way of you living your life.
06:08stop you from doing the things that you'd normally do, like take care of Vijay or going to see Hazen.
06:12It's just not good.
06:14I don't want to feel like this.
06:16I just don't know how to fix it.
06:19Okay, I'll tell you what we'll do.
06:22I need to go and get you some more dinner.
06:24and I'm going to come back and we're going to sort this out.
06:28I promise.
06:35Don't you go anywhere.
06:51Fancy you being here.
06:53I've got everything we need.
06:55I don't think pizza is the universal cure to everything.
07:00Well, I could argue with you about that one, but in this case, I think you might be right.
07:05Look what I've got.
07:07Where'd you get that?
07:09Well, you don't think I can do my own medical research?
07:12Rachel, give it to you.
07:13I may have spoken to her on the phone.
07:17Right.
07:18Let's go.
07:24Okay, agoraphobia.
07:26It comes from the Greek word.
07:29It's the best Greek accent I can manage.
07:31Meaning fear of the marketplace.
07:34Greek, okay.
07:35Well, speaking the same language.
07:37Yeah.
07:37But never in my life have I been scared of shopping.
07:39So what does this mean?
07:41I need to stop being Greek?
07:42No, it doesn't, but it does show how serious this situation is.
07:45Now, if we don't fix this, there'll be certain shops in Nappy Creek that will go to the wall.
07:50Now, we need to go from the very beginning, all right?
07:53There is a checklist here that we will now do.
07:58Are you ready?
07:59Mm-hmm.
08:01When you think about going outside, do you have heart palpitations, yes or no?
08:06Yes.
08:07Rapid breathing or sweating?
08:09Both.
08:10A feeling of impending doom?
08:15I think we're diagnosed.
08:18Now we need to find out what we're going to do about it.
08:26Hey.
08:26Managed to find a flatbait?
08:29Ah, I called that lady from the open door policy and where was taken?
08:33Don't worry, I'm sure it'll be available next week.
08:35Might be my only option.
08:37There's just nowhere to live in this town, you know?
08:38Hmm, what about that uni share house?
08:41I could smell their university cigarettes halfway down the street.
08:45Oh, yeah, probably not a good idea.
08:48You okay?
08:49Yeah, nothing massage won't fix.
08:51You know, I'm thinking of starting this new exercise craze where instead of going to
08:56the gym to do classes, you just come out to the farm and I put you to work.
09:00I just...
09:01What, like an old McDonald's boot camp or something?
09:03Yeah.
09:04What do you reckon?
09:06Oh, yeah?
09:06I could give you a hand.
09:09Are you quite done laughing?
09:12Sorry, I thought it was a joke.
09:15I'm not completely useless, Martha.
09:17No, of course you're not.
09:18If you wanted to come out to the farm and write a song about me putting up a fence, that'd
09:22be really cute.
09:24You're quite cold.
09:25I can do more than just write songs, you know.
09:27Have you done anything even close to manual labour?
09:31Just fending off groupies count?
09:34Then no, but I'm willing to learn.
09:37You're serious, aren't you?
09:39I'm completely insane, but I'll do anything to get out of a day of house hunting.
09:44What time do you want me to the farm tomorrow night?
09:47I've turned into this person that I never used to be before.
09:50The whole idea of not being able to go out of the house has seemed so ridiculous.
09:54Okay, come on.
09:55We're making very good progress here, one step at a time.
09:59Now, from all our reading, I reckon, whoopsie, the type of agri-fabre that we're dealing
10:05with is, I had it in there, panic attacks based on unresolved emotional conflicts associated
10:13with the situation.
10:15In other words, being hurt outside the diner.
10:17Well, knowing where it's come from doesn't help me deal with it, Miles.
10:21Okay, well, what about desensitisation?
10:23This incorporates the use of relaxation techniques to cope with the situation.
10:28Are you serious?
10:28The way I'm feeling right now is going to take a little bit more than breathing exercises
10:31and a whale song.
10:33Well, don't worry about whale music.
10:34What about we can just whack on some ennia?
10:37Okay, then we'll have an electric shock treatment.
10:40Okay, well, forget the music, but we should try this, Leah.
10:44What, is it going to hurt?
10:51Oh.
10:58Ow.
11:00Ow.
11:01Don't say anything.
11:03Not a single word.
11:05You're doing such a good job.
11:06Oh, what a lie.
11:08Look, if you don't want to do this, you can bail.
11:10It's fine.
11:12Am I just making more work for you, or am I really helping?
11:16There's my answer.
11:18My guitarist hands just aren't...
11:20Ow.
11:21They're not cut out for this type of work.
11:22Well, this should actually toughen them up.
11:25It's funny.
11:26I had to get guitar lessons as a kid, and I'd always complain about how sore my fingers were.
11:30And now you're making fences.
11:32What does that say?
11:33Oh, it says I probably shouldn't have quit.
11:39You really have no idea what you're doing, do you?
11:43I've got no idea at all.
11:46Look, it's nearly lunchtime.
11:47If I give you a knife and ask you to slice some bread, do you think you could do that?
11:52I haven't stuffed it up in the past, but I'm sure it's the first time for everything.
11:58Ow.
12:00So this is about Ruby, then?
12:02No.
12:03Well, yeah, sort of.
12:04She's part of it.
12:05It's part of everything that's been going on.
12:07Look, Irene, I've been doing a lot of thinking about where I'm going.
12:10You know, what I'm doing with my life.
12:12I see.
12:12So nothing too important, then?
12:15I don't want to go back to school, and I don't want to be stuck in some job that I
12:20don't care about.
12:20Well, love, that kind of limits your options.
12:23No, no, no.
12:23Oh, no.
12:24I'm not saying I don't want to work.
12:25I'm just saying I want to do something that has a purpose.
12:28You know, I want to make my life count.
12:31You see, Irene, there are things about me that I'm really good at, and that part of me I've turned
12:35my back on, which is why I think I've been making such a mess over everything.
12:38No, no, no.
12:39I have.
12:39I don't like the person that I've become, you know, with the riot and everything.
12:43I mean, I've just become so bitter and so angry, and it's just not who I used to be.
12:48Irene, I could always see the good in people, and somewhere along the line, I just stopped.
12:54You have been doing some thinking, haven't you?
12:58Irene, I want to go overseas to take up a missionary post.
13:01See, my plan is to spend a couple of years over there, then come back, go to Bible college, and
13:06become a reverend like I always talked about.
13:09Irene, I've never been so sure of anything.
13:13This is what I want to do with my life.
13:26I can see why you like it out here.
13:30It must be good just to get away from all the...
13:34All the Paul and Martha looks like it in town.
13:37I don't know why you just don't lap it up, to be honest.
13:40But you seem to be dealing with things pretty well.
13:43From my eyes, anyway.
13:45Sorry, we don't have to talk about it if you don't want.
13:47Right now, it's just one day at a time.
13:50I start looking at the big picture.
13:53Hugo's the second partner I've lost in a year.
13:57Careless to me, hey?
14:00Or just really unlucky.
14:01Yeah, well, that too.
14:04Lucky I'm not the type of person that believes in signs, otherwise I might start thinking that I was cursed.
14:10But if you start thinking like that, that's when it all just goes downhill.
14:14Like, it's just bad luck.
14:16You've got to deal with it the best way you can.
14:18Yeah, but that's where you can make the wrong decision.
14:21You know, you think you know the best way to deal with it.
14:23But really, it's just an excuse to down another bottle of vodka.
14:27And the rest.
14:30Don't worry, I haven't always made the most brilliant choices in my past.
14:34I'm not quite sure if I believe you.
14:37You seem so strong.
14:41It's just an act, I promise.
14:43Sometimes when I'm on my own, the only thing I can think about is crying.
14:47In between asking, why me?
14:50I just wish I had another distraction.
14:52You know, like maybe a comet heading for Earth.
14:55And then I can think about that instead.
14:58I'm just going to stop talking.
14:59Change this object?
15:00Yes, please.
15:02Did I mention that I'm a recovering drug addict?
15:05Huh.
15:06Mm-hmm.
15:07All I've been thinking about lately is myself and what I want.
15:11And that's just not how I want to live my life anymore.
15:15I'm sorry about the way I've been with your ribs.
15:17I know the rights wasn't your fault.
15:19You were just trying to do the right thing.
15:21I mean, I was angry and I took it out on you and I hate myself for that.
15:24And that's just what I'm trying to say.
15:25I just don't want to be that kind of person anymore.
15:29Okay, so what does this mean for us?
15:33Is there still hope?
15:33Because I still love you.
15:36I love you too, but I can't be with you no matter how much I want to be.
15:45I'm sorry.
15:47I went to church yesterday and I spoke to the reverend.
15:52And just having someone to listen, someone that doesn't know me at all.
15:56I want to be like that.
15:58And I want to be that type of person for other people.
16:01And I think that, well, I hope that I can be.
16:07I used to be.
16:11Well, you have to do what makes you happy.
16:14And you have to do what you think is right.
16:18We should throw you a party.
16:21No.
16:22Come on, everyone's going to want to say goodbye.
16:26Ruby, I'm leaving this afternoon.
16:31Why so soon?
16:33Well, because I've already made my decision.
16:35And I just want to get started straight away.
16:36Because if I don't, then I'll just be marking time.
16:40Okay, I'll miss you so much.
16:44So this is really it.
16:45Then you're really going, aren't you?
16:50Okay, well, in that case, I have one last thing I want to say.
17:04Okay, breathe in.
17:06Breathe out.
17:09Now, you just keep on breathing.
17:13You can take this at your own pace.
17:16And remember, you're in control.
17:20Okay, whenever you're ready.
17:25I'm ready.
17:35Now, do you know where you're going to be staying tonight?
17:37Uh, yeah.
17:37Yeah, I've booked a room in a hostel.
17:39I'll call you as soon as I get there.
17:40Oh, sweetie, I'm going to miss you so much.
17:42Well, I won't be gone forever.
17:43This place is my home.
17:44Yeah, well, don't you forget that.
17:45It is your home.
17:47Now, have you rung your sister?
17:48Uh, I will.
17:49Wherever I go, I'll make sure I get to see Annie.
17:51I can't believe that both of you are going to be gone.
17:54Love, are you sure this is what you want?
17:56No, don't answer that.
17:58It's written all over your face.
18:00It's the right decision.
18:01I know it.
18:06Jeffrey?
18:10I love you.
18:38Bye-bye.
18:41Bye-bye.
18:56Bye-bye.
18:58Bye-bye.
19:02Bye-bye.
19:06Bye-bye.
19:20There you go.
19:32Okay, so you want to eat out here or inside?
19:35That's your call.
19:37I'm too tired to make a decision and too tired to think your plan worked.
19:41Yes, my wicked plan worked.
19:42See, now we're not feeling sorry for ourselves.
19:45Yes, we are.
19:46In a whole different way.
19:49Can I give you a hand with dinner?
19:51No, I don't want you collapsing in the kitchen.
19:55So you'd make a great flatmate.
19:56I don't know why you can't find somewhere.
19:59You could spread the word.
20:03I think I can do something better.
20:06I have a room here if you want it.
20:10Sorry, I didn't mean to put you on the spot, but there is a room and it wouldn't be for
20:13free.
20:13You'd have to pay rent.
20:15Of course, yeah.
20:16Yeah, and I'm pretty good to live with.
20:18I just have a no-open-door policy on my bathroom.
20:23But I thought you'd be wanting a bit of space at the moment.
20:26No, that's the last thing I want.
20:28I don't want to be stuck out here any longer and wallowing in my self-pity.
20:32Today was great.
20:33It took my mind off things.
20:35I'm so sick of being on my own.
20:37I just want to get on with my life, and I think that if you need somewhere to live, then
20:40you should move in here.
20:43We do get on pretty well, I suppose.
20:45Yes, we get on great.
20:52Okay.
20:54You've got yourself a house, mate.
21:11This is a really good way to get kicked out before I move.
21:14I'm not going to kick you out.
21:28Next week on Home and Away.
21:30The window had been jimmied open, so someone definitely broke in.
21:33Someone who knew about the money.
21:34So who's it?
21:35Who do you reckon?
21:36Where is it?
21:36Oh, that sounds like someone that can't handle the heat.
21:39Bruh.
21:39And if you can't handle the heat, you may as well get out of the kitchen.
21:42Oh.
21:42Do you think this might be moving a bit fast?
21:44I can't just abandon him because he's hurt.
21:46Do you even love me?
21:47If you backed out, people wouldn't understand.
21:49You know that, don't you?
21:49How did you know what move I was going to make?
21:51What, is this The Shining or something?
21:53Oh!
21:53Rabbit.
21:54Miles, you can't sleep.
21:55Why's that?
21:56Because if you sleep, you die.
