00:00Previously, on Shorten Street.
00:01Niyama.
00:01Just let me say this before I start thinking responsibly
00:04and realize it's a bad idea.
00:06I can't stop thinking about you.
00:08I'm going to the police.
00:09We can't have that.
00:10Mickey and I are going to handle everything
00:11without getting them involved.
00:12Just give me back my phone.
00:14Ah!
00:15Ah!
00:16Ah!
00:17Ah!
00:17I think I know a way to fix this.
00:19Welcome to the family, Poppy.
00:27Oh.
00:30You'll live.
00:31Without you, I couldn't possibly...
00:33Oh, God.
00:34You're dramatic.
00:35No.
00:36Just very happy.
00:39Well, that makes one of us.
00:42Lyle.
00:45Do you regret it?
00:46No.
00:47Not at all.
00:49But I do regret not cutting things off with him sooner.
00:56Well, no time like the present.
00:59Tonight?
01:00If he's awake.
01:01If not, tomorrow.
01:02Okay, that's, um...
01:03Are you sure?
01:06Are you sure?
01:07Yes, of course.
01:08I just thought you might want some time
01:11before you blow up your relationship.
01:13Chris, I blew up my relationship
01:15about half an hour ago.
01:19And while you may be finally versed
01:20in the art of the affair,
01:23I'm not that person.
01:27Point taken.
01:29Well, if you excuse me,
01:32I have a partner to break up with.
01:35That's if you're still all in.
01:38I am all in.
01:41It's all mine.
01:50And there's no way the cops will find him down there.
01:52May the ruddy little goblin rest in peace.
01:57Is she broken?
01:59There's her on button.
02:01Hey, I know this is a lot to take in, but...
02:03Ow!
02:05Oh, good.
02:06She's alive.
02:08Hiding two bodies in one way
02:09could be a bit much, even for me.
02:11Oh, I think I need to lie down.
02:13Too bad, you're not getting one.
02:14All right, first up, murder 101.
02:17Alibis.
02:19It's probably better to get this sorted now.
02:21First rule of murder club,
02:22tell everyone exactly the same thing.
02:24Whether it's a barista chewing your ear off
02:26or a cop kicking your ass.
02:28Look, it's easier to lie
02:29when you don't have to keep track
02:30of who you've lied to.
02:31Second rule,
02:32don't just think about the big stuff.
02:34Oh, I was watching TV with Mickey.
02:36Think about the little crap, too.
02:37What were you watching?
02:38Who picked the show?
02:39What time did you have dinner?
02:40Who did the washing up?
02:41Who skived off to take a shit?
02:42Because then you're ready
02:43for any sort of questions
02:44and then you're not going to freak out.
02:47Rule number three,
02:48don't break.
02:49Not for anyone.
02:50Not if they offer you cash.
02:51Not if they threaten
02:52to chop off your pinky toe.
02:53No one's going to chop off your pinky toe.
02:55I will.
02:57If you snitch.
03:01All right, let's give this a crack.
03:11And I'm booking us
03:12this luxury horse trick
03:14where the guide carries your champagne
03:16and trots like 30 metres behind you
03:18so you can just pretend
03:19they're not even there.
03:20Cool.
03:22Honestly, you two
03:24letting your relationship bullshit
03:25get in the way of my holiday vibe.
03:27She's giving you space
03:28but clearly you don't want that
03:29so can you just get back on board
03:30please for my sake?
03:31I don't know.
03:32It's complicated.
03:34Oh, God.
03:35We're just going to keep going
03:36with giving space for now.
03:38I need melons!
03:40Yeah, good luck with that.
03:44Kiwa, come on.
03:47Kiwa!
03:48Come on.
03:50Kiwa, my bro.
03:52Are you Kiwa?
03:53Hi.
03:54I'm Cindy.
03:55I think your mum's got something
03:57pretty cool over there.
03:59Should we go see what it is?
04:01Yeah?
04:02Let's go.
04:06You don't have to do that.
04:07Well, I wanted to.
04:09Well, I think that's us, eh?
04:11Off to kids' club?
04:12I want to see Dad.
04:14No, son.
04:15Not today, okay?
04:16Come on, come on.
04:16I want to see you, son.
04:18Ka kite kiwa.
04:20Oh, those ones are sharks, trust me.
04:22I wasn't, um...
04:23Oh, that's none of my business
04:25but if you want my advice...
04:26I don't.
04:27Of course.
04:28I'd just, um...
04:29I'd stay clear of them
04:30because when I couldn't pay
04:31my loans back
04:31they took my car,
04:33my gran's necklace
04:34but worst of all
04:34my hair straightens.
04:36Right.
04:37And other positive news,
04:38Vili is refusing to meet.
04:40How is that positive news?
04:42Well, it's not
04:43but it's more positive
04:44than needing a loan
04:45from that daunting site.
04:47Well, if he won't meet me...
04:49Don't make me run in these!
04:53Heard the news.
04:54I'm so sorry.
04:56What news?
04:56Union reflect.
04:58Oh, thank you.
04:59Wait, why are you sorry?
05:00Isn't it like an honour?
05:01It's the hardest job
05:02in the hospital.
05:02Yeah, well,
05:03maybe people voted for me
05:04because they think
05:05I'm really capable.
05:06Or they voted for you
05:07as payback.
05:08For what?
05:09Well, Maeve,
05:10the joke is on them
05:11because I'm going
05:11to the union so hard
05:12they'll forget
05:13I was ever a league player.
05:14Maeve,
05:15I need you urgently.
05:21Right, we're just
05:22going to take your
05:22blood pressure
05:23and then you should
05:23be ready for discharge.
05:25Can you please
05:26pass me your stethoscope?
05:30What was the emergency?
05:32No emergency.
05:34So why did you need me?
05:35Hmm?
05:36Why did you need me?
05:38You're the best nurse.
05:40I always want to work
05:41with the best nurse.
05:42Uh-huh.
05:45So I'll come around the back
05:46and meet you in the car park.
05:48Do you reckon you can
05:48switch the plates by one?
05:50Yeah, easy.
05:51Sweet.
05:51Then all we need to do
05:52is find a way to...
05:53Wait, wait.
05:53Wait, did I cook your
05:54bolognese with spaghetti
05:55or pappadeli?
05:57Love your attention to detail.
05:59Well, thank me at school.
06:00Well, you cooked spaghetti
06:01bolognese with spaghetti then.
06:04Okay, I think I've got
06:05our story down.
06:06Good to see Princess Poppy's
06:08finally pulling her weight.
06:09By the way, I'm stealing
06:10Tyler today.
06:10I hope you didn't have
06:11any hot dates planned.
06:12I thought we were
06:13going to practice more.
06:14We can hang later.
06:15Got a job I need
06:16a lead foot on.
06:17Is it something to do
06:18with all this?
06:18Could I help?
06:20No, different gig.
06:21Nothing to do with you.
06:22Different gig?
06:23Don't worry.
06:23No one's getting rubbed out
06:24this time.
06:25And you're helping her?
06:27Well, it's just one tiny job
06:28with Mickey before she
06:29goes back home.
06:30And you've been doing
06:30so good with all the
06:31Hendrick stuff, I just...
06:32I have not been good
06:34with this Hendrick stuff.
06:35I've been doing what you say.
06:36So we don't go to jail.
06:37Well, it's just one job.
06:39Okay, and then I'm done.
06:40Sure you are.
06:41I don't want to date
06:42a criminal, Tyler.
06:43Bit late for that, hon.
06:48Good luck with pappadeli pants.
06:53Mullins, a hand.
06:55I can help manse
06:56with another patient.
06:57Thanks, Ash.
06:58Billy Army,
06:59you're a hard man
06:59to track down.
07:01Just prioritising
07:01where I'm needed most.
07:03And you don't think
07:03the new union rep
07:04needs to meet with the CEO?
07:05Not when the CEO
07:06told me I have no power
07:07and threatened my job here.
07:09I think you're taking
07:10things a little out of context.
07:11It seemed pretty black and white
07:13to me.
07:13I'm...
07:13I'm replaceable, right?
07:17Wow.
07:18We'll see how easy
07:19we are to replace
07:20if we go on strike.
07:22Hang on.
07:23I am.
07:24We all are.
07:25By a thread.
07:26The bins are overflowing.
07:28The gloves you said
07:29were gone
07:29are back
07:30and we're running out
07:31of the supplies
07:32we need to actually
07:32do our jobs.
07:33Yeah, it's hard
07:34for everyone right now
07:35and we're all feeling
07:36the pinch.
07:36Oh.
07:37Oh, well, it's a good thing
07:38we've got your cardboard cutouts.
07:39Yes, they are
07:40important marketing materials.
07:43True.
07:44I guess they can step in
07:45for us
07:46if we strike.
08:12We'll see you next time.
08:14We'll see you next time.
08:15either side of the weekend
08:16and Libby will
08:17worry around your meetings.
08:18I will not.
08:19You're a PA, Libby.
08:20That's literally your job.
08:21For Christ's sake, Phil,
08:22just give it a rest.
08:25Serves you right
08:26for wanting to shoot
08:27a Kiwi
08:27with a camera.
08:29Oh, man.
08:33Hey, Sage.
08:35I knew it.
08:36You weren't sick.
08:38I am.
08:39In the head.
08:40Aren't we all...
08:42Is that a burner?
08:43Yeah, I dropped mine.
08:46Can I help?
08:48I just needed to get out
08:49of the house.
08:50Talk to a normal human.
08:51Normal?
08:52I'm offended.
08:54Is it Hendrix?
08:55Has he sent something new?
08:58I just...
08:59can't believe
09:00how messy it all got.
09:01Yeah, you and me both.
09:03I'm kind of hoping
09:04the nice guy I knew
09:04back in the day
09:05will repossess his body.
09:06Hmm.
09:07Yeah, I'm struggling
09:08to remember that guy.
09:10Used to be the only guy
09:11that there was.
09:12I mean, when we were
09:13back in uni,
09:13he used to stay with us
09:14for the whole holidays.
09:15Really?
09:16Yeah.
09:17My family loved him.
09:18My mum would have
09:19adopted him if she could have.
09:20I mean, the guy chose
09:21to spend a whole summer
09:22in Invercargill.
09:22That takes a kind heart.
09:24What about his own family?
09:26Well, exactly.
09:27He avoided them
09:28like Brooklyn avoids
09:29the back-ups.
09:29It might explain a few things.
09:31I had no idea.
09:32Yeah, and he really cared
09:33about his little brothers
09:34and sister.
09:34He was a bit older
09:35and he'd always call them
09:36at 6pm right on the dot.
09:38Right before he presented
09:38to love my mum's fish pie.
09:40He's quite sweet.
09:43Sorry, I think
09:43I need to go home.
09:47Oh, okay.
09:50Um...
09:52I think she just...
09:54You know, she just went cold.
09:56It's strange.
09:57Complete 180.
09:58You know, you should do
09:59pink and sparkling more often.
10:01Suits you.
10:02You sure you don't want one?
10:04They're my famous ham sandwiches.
10:05Go on then.
10:06Yeah.
10:08Look, for what it's worth,
10:10I think Kate
10:10is just nervous, you know?
10:12Falling in love
10:13can be scary.
10:14Easy, mate.
10:14One step at a time.
10:15Oh, okay.
10:16Liking someone
10:17can be scary.
10:18But it's worth it.
10:21Yeah.
10:24You got someone?
10:25I think I do.
10:27Oh, yeah?
10:28Who's the unlucky lady?
10:30Ha, Miriamma.
10:32No kidding.
10:35Hang on a second.
10:37Isn't she worth someone?
10:39Not for long.
10:41Oh, you shocker.
10:45Anyway, that's enough about me.
10:46What are you going to do about Kate?
10:49I don't know.
10:50I'm just...
10:51I'm scared I'm going to screw it all up,
10:53you know?
10:53You won't.
10:54Just be your pink sparkly self.
10:57And I think you should just
10:58go for it.
10:59Tell Kate how you feel.
11:01You're a good man, Emmett.
11:02Kate will be lucky to have you.
11:06Look at us.
11:07A pair of old geezers
11:09talking about their feelings.
11:10Bloody disgusting.
11:20What?
11:22What?
11:22What are you going to do?
11:23I can't find Dad.
11:26Oh, what's wrong?
11:27Have you lost her there?
11:29Hey, Tepai.
11:30Should we go find him together?
11:32Hey?
11:32Yeah.
11:34Oh, it's pretty scary losing your parents, eh?
11:36Tewa, where have you been?
11:38Sweet as.
11:39I was just taking him to find his dad.
11:41You took him out of kids' club to go and see Marty.
11:44What are you playing at?
11:45But, no, no, no, no.
11:47It's not like that.
11:48Really?
11:48Because that's what it looks like,
11:49and if it's okay with you,
11:50I'd like to be the person who takes him to see Marty
11:51for the first time in months.
11:54But Esther,
11:55he was wandering around out here alone.
11:58He told me he was looking for his dad,
12:00so I figured he was already with him.
12:02Well, if you think you can use my kids,
12:04stick it into my good books,
12:05you are mistaken.
12:07What?
12:08I don't want anything from you, Esther.
12:10Not a thing.
12:13Actually, no, that's not entirely true.
12:16I did want something from you.
12:19Friendship.
12:20Fanangatonga.
12:22Pretty dumb of me to hope for that, I guess.
12:26Cindy.
12:27You're one of the only wahine Maori in this hospital.
12:29And it means certain that, of course,
12:31I wanted to know you.
12:32People who look like me
12:34want to know people who look like you.
12:38Kia patora.
12:40Cindy, tai hoa.
12:44Motakuhi.
12:45Okay.
12:46Look, I'm already running late for a meeting.
12:49Would you take Hiwa back to kids' club?
12:52Is there something?
12:56Yeah.
12:57I could do that.
12:59Ka-bye.
13:11Weren't you going to...
13:11It's done.
13:16She's out, okay?
13:17She's just tying up some loose ends.
13:20Oh, yeah.
13:21Just some loose ends.
13:23Can't have any of those.
13:25Poppy, Mickey needed me.
13:27Yeah, right.
13:28Because I didn't.
13:29The girlfriend whose ex your sister murdered.
13:36I can't do this.
13:38Do what?
13:39We have to turn Mickey in.
13:42Hendrix had family, Tyler.
13:44Little brothers and sisters.
13:46He cared about them.
13:47They care about him.
13:48I really understand how important family is.
13:50Okay, I really do.
13:53Which is exactly why we can't turn Mickey in.
13:55So your family's just more important than someone else's?
13:58Yes, if that person is Hendrix who tried to kill you.
14:00Yeah, and Mickey did kill him.
14:01And he killed Cleo.
14:02So where does it stop?
14:03Here.
14:05Now.
14:05Okay, it stops now.
14:06Does it?
14:07Because you just got back from another job with Mickey.
14:09It was just one job.
14:11Yeah, yeah.
14:11And then there'll be another one more.
14:13And another.
14:14And another.
14:14It's not...
14:16I'm going to the cops.
14:18Tyler, I am going to the cops.
14:19And you can come with me.
14:20Or you can choose Mickey.
14:22And you can fall straight back into the life that you worked so hard to leave.
14:26But if that is your decision, we're done.
14:32Okay.
14:33It's you, Poppy.
14:35Okay, I choose you.
14:40I love you, Poppy.
14:43I love you too.
14:53Do you really think that will strike?
14:55Wouldn't be surprised.
14:57Oh, God, I hope so.
14:58Cody and I haven't had the same day off in ages.
15:01Not that I don't care about the cause.
15:03You know, I've got my protest outfit at the ready.
15:06Well, with the way things have been going,
15:07you and Cody can have a cute little picket line date.
15:09Yeah.
15:10Apparently, HCA's have had their hours reduced.
15:13Seriously?
15:13Honestly, I'm fabulous.
15:15No guesses would be lumped with those duties.
15:18So how's the day panning out?
15:20Tonight a go-up?
15:21Absolutely.
15:25Mullins?
15:26No.
15:28Honestly, yeah.
15:30I need your assistance.
15:31No.
15:32Under Section 8, Clause 9 of your contract,
15:34you are not allowed to decline requests from your superior.
15:37Ask someone else.
15:38I'm asking you.
15:39Well, don't.
15:40You're still on the clock.
15:41Yeah, and there are other nurses you can ask.
15:43Other.
15:44Incredible nurses.
15:46Stuart, can you perform a layered closure
15:48of a deep dermal wound and laceration to the tricep?
15:50Oh, I could give it a red-hot go.
15:52Vili can.
15:53Ask him.
15:53Do you see Vili and Edie?
15:55So you're willing to sacrifice the patient's health
15:57because of your personal grievances?
15:58I want...
15:59That's not what I was doing.
15:59That's exactly what was about to happen.
16:01Just stop.
16:02Stop clinging to me.
16:06Ask Emmett to take over, please.
16:07Outside.
16:08Now.
16:15So, what exactly is a sluice machine?
16:18It's a machine that processes and disposes of human waste
16:22and things like bedpans and urinals and...
16:25Okay, I get it, and it's broken.
16:27Very.
16:28So what are they doing with the human waste now?
16:30Well, I think it's best for both of us if you don't know.
16:33Also, I got an email from the vacuum cleaner company
16:35and they will not accept returns at all.
16:38I only told them about one of them having feckle matter.
16:41Why?
16:42Never mind.
16:43Uh, just send me the cost and everything.
16:45Absolutals.
16:46Oh, Phil's here.
16:48I'm ready for my apology.
16:49Did you know what sluice machines are?
16:51Yes.
16:52Yuck.
16:52Don't change your subject.
16:53Just hurry up and say sorry.
16:54I'm sorry.
16:56I shouldn't have yelled at you.
16:57It's just been a day.
16:58Which is why we need to go on holiday.
17:00I hear you, and I see you,
17:01and I want you to know that your feelings are valid.
17:03You have never been less attractive to me.
17:05I just can't take the time off.
17:07This job's all consuming.
17:09And being a consultant isn't?
17:11That's not what I meant.
17:13Okay, we don't have to take time off.
17:15We can put a pin in Europe.
17:16We can fly down to Cleansetown on Friday night.
17:19Saturday morning we can do the horse trek.
17:21Saturday night dinner,
17:22and then Sunday we can do the kiwi safari.
17:24It's about energy, too.
17:25I'm just exhausted on the weekends.
17:26You wanted to go to Rainbow's End on Sunday.
17:28That's hardly relaxing.
17:29Well, it's different.
17:30Is it?
17:30How?
17:30It's close.
17:33Are you afraid of flying?
17:34No.
17:35Hate the cold.
17:36It's not.
17:36Do you just not want to go on holiday with me?
17:38Of course I want to go on holiday with you.
17:39Then what is it?
17:40What godforsaken reason could you have
17:41for not wanting to go on a Bougiard's trip with me?
17:43Phil, I can't afford it.
17:53Crane, I asked for space.
17:56Correct.
17:57But you also said you were all mine work-wise.
17:59Obviously I didn't mean all yours.
18:01There are other people in this hospital that need me.
18:03If you didn't mean it, you shouldn't have said it.
18:04Fine, let me rephrase it.
18:06I will work with you when strictly necessary,
18:08but ideally you'll find someone else.
18:10It was necessary.
18:12You were the only one who could help
18:13with the complex tricep wound, but you refused.
18:15Because I assumed you were going to ask me
18:17to do extremely basic stuff.
18:18Like the last ten times you needed me.
18:20I like working with the best.
18:22Oh my god.
18:23Listen to yourself.
18:25What, do you think this is a game?
18:26Some loophole you found to get what you want?
18:28No.
18:32I believe so, yes.
18:35See, this is why I wanted you to have space.
18:37So you could clear your head and sort your shit out
18:39so that maybe we could try again.
18:45Okay.
18:48Space, I can do that.
18:49I don't know if you can.
18:52And I don't know if I can do this either.
18:55What does that mean?
18:57I'm done, Sophia.
19:05You're nervous.
19:06A little.
19:07I can't imagine Lyle will take it very well.
19:10It needs must.
19:12It shouldn't.
19:14You're killing me.
19:15It'll be worth it.
19:20Daddy!
19:21Hey!
19:23Hey, you guys.
19:24Hey.
19:26Look at you.
19:27Buzzy B.
19:28Buzzy B?
19:29Hey, you two.
19:30You see that ram over there?
19:31You know how he talked about having a baby sister?
19:34Should we meet her?
19:36Is that okay, eh?
19:37Of course, yeah.
19:38Look, she is very little,
19:39but she will be so happy to meet you guys.
19:42Come on.
19:44Kia ora, Pepe.
19:51Um, let's talk about
19:54you spending more time with the kids.
19:56I would love that.
19:58So would they.
20:03So you've been supporting her this whole time?
20:05My family's always had an addictive streak.
20:07My granddad loved the horses.
20:09Mum loved the pokies.
20:12But my sister loves everything.
20:14She'd bet on my life expectancy if she could.
20:16So you've just been paying off her debts?
20:18No, trying to.
20:20Feels like I've hardly made a dent.
20:22I'm sorry.
20:24For pressuring you about the holiday.
20:28It's okay.
20:29I'd really like to take you on a luxury horse trek someday.
20:33But for now, maybe we just do something closer to home.
20:37Like Hamilton?
20:38I hear the gardens are almost like international travel.
20:44What's that?
20:46Oh, just something I've been messing around with.
20:56Well, what was it?
20:57Shorten Street.
20:59Or my vision for what it could be.
21:01A revamp like this would elevate the hospital so much.
21:04We need to look as good as the care we offer.
21:07So this is why you've been making all the cuts?
21:08Well, nothing comes for free, but this would help make Shorten Street world class.
21:12A destination hospital.
21:13This is brilliant.
21:16You're brilliant.
21:18I don't know.
21:20Yes, you need to show the staff.
21:22Really?
21:23Absolutely.
21:24I think it would help for them to see your vision.
21:30Hi, my love.
21:34So, what's Cody's big emergency?
21:40Hey, what's up?
21:44I couldn't do it.
21:47I can't dub her in.
21:50She's my sister.
21:52Yeah, okay.
21:54Well, we can talk about it.
21:55No, we can't.
21:59Look, I wasn't with Cody.
22:00I was putting Mickey on a plane home.
22:04I'm sorry, Poppy.
22:08You can't expect me to be the reason my sister goes down for this.
22:17Going out tonight, are we?
22:19Yes.
22:20Hmm.
22:21By choice, or...?
22:22Choice.
22:23But I can't say I'm looking forward to it.
22:27I'm telling Lyle I'm leaving him.
22:29That explains the funeral attire.
22:32Well, for what it's worth.
22:33Sorry, that's hard.
22:34Oh, well, don't be.
22:36He's not the one who screwed it up by falling for someone else.
22:38Now we're talking.
22:40What, are you going to make me force the name out of you?
22:42It's Chris.
22:43We did something in his exam I never thought we would do.
22:47Oh.
22:48What?
22:50Look, I...
22:51I really want you to be happy, and I wasn't going to say anything.
22:54Just say it.
22:55I don't know.
22:55I didn't know.
22:55I don't know.
22:58We'll be happy.
