00:26You're not gone into school yet?
00:28I've got to hurry up. I'm going to be late.
00:31Oh.
00:33Yeah, if you're looking for the toaster, dog talk it.
00:35What? Why?
00:37Random, right? Yeah, along with some other stuff, too.
00:40What, you didn't try and stop him?
00:41You should have seen his eyes.
00:44This is unreal.
00:46No, maybe he's like one of those decluttering freaks that you see on Insta.
00:51Right, got to go.
00:52All right. See you later.
00:54Yeah.
00:57Where have you been?
00:59Oh, um, shops.
01:01We ran out of baby wipes and Shona was whinging about it, so...
01:04Well, maybe your dad walked off with them and all.
01:07Eh? What are you all about?
01:09Well, according to Lil, for reasons yet unknown, your dad's nicked his toaster.
01:14God knows what else and all.
01:17Oh, for...
01:18I don't believe this!
01:21He's had the biscuit tin and all!
01:23I mean, who nicks a biscuit tin? I mean, seriously?
01:27Is this how his episodes start?
01:29Honestly, it's hard to say, but it is weird, I'll give you that.
01:33No, what's weird is having all my left socks go missing and people forgetting how to use light switches in
01:39the house.
01:39This is...
01:40This is something else.
01:43Well, I'm sure it's just a case of tweaking his meds.
01:46Yeah, well, it better had be.
01:47Because I tell you, I haven't got the energy for this level of crazy.
01:50And more importantly, neither has Shona, okay?
01:53So, seriously.
01:55Just fix it, all right?
01:57Bye-bye.
01:58See you later.
02:00Bye.
02:18Anyway, Marco's arranging a mystery date for tonight. That should be fun.
02:22Wow, you are so smitten.
02:24Well, I'll admit, I enjoy his company.
02:26Take your table, ladies. I'll be with you.
02:28Thanks, Ry.
02:32Oh, come on. You are literally glowing.
02:35Well, I am not.
02:36So, if you were glowing any more, you'd be where you are.
02:39All right, fine. I really like him, okay?
02:42So, are you looking forward to your party?
02:45Yeah, yeah, absolutely, yeah.
02:48All right, okay, well, between us, I think I would have preferred something a bit more low-key, but David's
02:53got his heart set on it.
02:54Nah, come on, it'll be fun.
02:56Also, we're equally between us, but we could certainly do the business right now.
03:01No pressure, obvs.
03:02Yeah, you know what? Ignore me. It'll be good for me to let my hair down.
03:05Yeah, it'll be good for all of us.
03:06Right, well, I will see you tomorrow if I don't see you before.
03:09Bye-bye.
03:09Bye-bye.
03:11Of course, you don't have to go if you don't want to.
03:15I'll get through it.
03:16You shouldn't have to get through it.
03:17Yeah, she's right. Your wellbeing is paramount.
03:21Especially on your birthday.
03:22Why don't you talk to David?
03:24And tell him what?
03:26I'm emotionally and physically shot, and I think I'm losing my mind.
03:30You're not losing your mind.
03:31All right, well, tell me then, how is it that I keep hearing Harper cry even when she's not in
03:34the house?
03:37You know what, just forget I said anything, please.
03:40Show now.
03:40No, seriously, I'm fine. Forget it.
03:43Okay.
03:45I'll see you later.
03:55I know that things are tough right now, Kip, but you can at least reply to my messages.
03:59Starting with this one.
04:01And yes, I will pick Harry up later.
04:06Hello?
04:10Hello?
04:12Hello?
04:15Are you all right, Doug?
04:17I can't find this.
04:19Find what?
04:21Find what?
04:22Are you part of a plan?
04:24Whose plan?
04:25Ah, Jodie's!
04:27Well, are you?
04:29No, I am not part of a plan.
04:32I cross my heart and hope to die.
04:34Can't stand the girl, if I'm honest.
04:37So, er, what is this plan?
04:41I'm only showing to Shona.
04:43She needs to see for herself.
04:46Otherwise,
04:47she won't believe me.
04:49Okay.
04:50Er, well, I can go and get her.
04:51Yeah.
04:52Yeah?
04:52Okay.
04:54She needs this like a hole in her.
04:59Okay.
05:04Okay.
05:07What do you think I should do about Lucy?
05:10When Sally's ready to speak about it, I'm sure she'll let you know.
05:13What am I supposed to do in the meantime?
05:15Just sit around on my hands?
05:16Yeah, well, obviously she wouldn't be in shock, isn't she?
05:18That makes two of us.
05:19Which is why it's such a delicate situation.
05:22All I'm saying is, don't go off half-cocked.
05:25Yeah, I know.
05:29She's there.
05:30Er, Chrissie, Chrissie.
05:33Sally will not be happy.
05:34Sally isn't her grandmother.
05:37What part of half-cocked did you not understand?
05:41Oh.
05:44Morning.
05:46Morning.
05:49Morning.
05:50Morning.
05:51I was just passing, so, er, I thought I'd pop in for a brew.
05:54Oh, well, it'll have to be a quick one. I met the doctors in ten.
05:58Right, okay.
05:58Well, I'll, erm, come back then when you're less rushed.
06:02Right.
06:02One of those brews, is it?
06:04Come on, out with it.
06:06Well, it's no big deal.
06:07I just want you to check in.
06:09About what?
06:12All right.
06:12I sensed yesterday that you weren't overly keen on us all meeting up.
06:17Well, you're sensed wrong.
06:17I'm fine.
06:18I just don't feel 100% at the minute.
06:20Eva, please tell me it's not about Sam.
06:22Leigh-Anne.
06:23You think he's dangerous, don't you?
06:26I think...
06:28I think that he's unpredictable, and that's not a personal attack.
06:32All right, so just a head case, then?
06:34I just think we should wait until we get his meds right.
06:37His meds?
06:38Well, I heard that some drugs are a bit trial and error.
06:42All right, and where have you heard that?
06:44Ooh, let me guess.
06:45Ah, Toya.
06:46She wasn't bad when having him.
06:47Not much.
06:48Leigh-Anne, I just need to do what I feel is best for me and my family.
06:52Right.
06:53Even if it makes Sam feel even more guilty and isolated than he already does.
06:56Well, what the hell, eh?
07:05I thought it.
07:07I just wanted to show you...
07:09That's all.
07:09What?
07:11What?
07:11She knows?
07:12Right.
07:13Sit down.
07:13Come on.
07:15Sir Bethany found him rooting through our stuff in his motorhome.
07:18Where is it?
07:21Where's what?
07:22Don't play the innocent.
07:23You stole it.
07:25Stole what?
07:26Look, I'm not mad.
07:27No.
07:28No one's...
07:28She wants you to think I'm mad, but I'm not.
07:31No one's saying you're mad, Doug.
07:32Come on.
07:32No, you're just confused.
07:33You're just confused.
07:33He hasn't been taking his tablets, clearly.
07:35Don't listen to her.
07:37I've seen the photo.
07:39She knows it's proof.
07:40What photo?
07:41What proof?
07:41Don't encourage him.
07:42No, no.
07:43What is it proof of, Dad?
07:47His sister's trying to steal your life.
07:50And him as well.
07:58No!
07:58Well, how's your drink?
08:00I only ask because we don't have a lot of call for frappy.
08:03No, I smashed it.
08:04Oh, good.
08:06No school today?
08:08Er...
08:08No.
08:09No, you've got a teacher insect day, haven't you?
08:12Yeah, I totally forgot.
08:14Hmm, see.
08:15Well, if there's anything else, do let me know.
08:21You didn't have to lie for me.
08:23Oh, sorry, lovely.
08:24No, erm...
08:26Sorry, I think it was just probably instinctive.
08:30Okay.
08:31Yeah, I mean, it's like I said I was probably just being a bit protective, you know.
08:36Why?
08:38Well, because of everything you've been through and...
08:44Morning, Roy.
08:45Oh, good morning.
08:46Is that day of the month again?
08:48Got the cake list in here somewhere.
08:51Um...
08:52Take your time.
08:53I found it.
08:59Hiya.
09:00Why aren't you at school?
09:01In set day of.
09:03Oh, we must have missed that email.
09:06Er, Christina bought me a frappe.
09:07That's good of her.
09:09So, why don't you get yourself home?
09:11Because I'm sure you've got plenty of homework to do.
09:14Now, please.
09:17Thanks for the drink.
09:19Pleasure for the drink.
09:20Goodbye, I know you've got to.
09:24Er, Roy, hold a fire on the cakes, would you?
09:26I think I'll join Christine there for a coffee.
09:30Right.
09:30Er, yeah, I'll be right there.
09:33Something I miss.
09:34Er, it's Marco.
09:35He's in hospital.
09:36He's been involved in a car accident.
09:41I didn't want you to find out like this, but she's forced my hand.
09:46I've never seen him this bad before.
09:49Look, maybe you just need some alone time.
09:52Yeah, you could show up as well, pal.
09:54He's in it up to his neck, he is.
09:56Look, don't, whatever you think you've seen, alright, you haven't.
10:00None of it's real.
10:02I didn't imagine that picture of that woman's head.
10:04Woman's head?
10:05Yeah, and the police badge.
10:06Or that flaming photograph of them together at your wedding.
10:11Look, Jodie wasn't at my wedding, was she?
10:13No, but in the photo, she is.
10:16Your face has gone.
10:18And she's done it before to that other woman.
10:20Like, Dad, this has got to stop.
10:21They're not having an affair.
10:23Oh, alright, come on, time out.
10:27You bought her flowers.
10:29No, I didn't.
10:31No, Jodie bought those for herself.
10:34Ilya's charged.
10:35Another lie.
10:36I know, Mary told me.
10:39Well, the other day, they were in the salon together, all cosy, drinking champagne like.
10:44Yeah, and I know about that.
10:46You know?
10:47Yes, because I told her.
10:49Yeah, David would never hurt me like that.
10:51I only wish she could say the same about you, Dad.
10:53I know, this is all getting a bit too much.
10:55Look, I'm looking out for you.
10:56No, Dad, you're not.
10:58Okay, you're not.
10:59You're messing with my head.
11:00Ever since you've got here, I've been all over the place.
11:03But you're saying you want me to leave?
11:05She's saying you need help.
11:07Professionally.
11:07Yeah.
11:08And you need it today.
11:12Trust me.
11:13You're the one who's gonna need help.
11:16You should've listened, girl.
11:18Dad.
11:23What was that?
11:24My life, in a nutshell.
11:26What are you doing?
11:28What I should've done from the get-go.
11:31Hello.
11:32Hi, hello.
11:33My dad, Douglas Ramsay, he's under your care.
11:37Yeah, he's taking a turn for the worse.
11:39I'm talking full-blown, paranoid, delusional.
11:43We're really scared.
11:58You agreed to stay away.
12:01I didn't agree to anything.
12:03It was basically your way to the highway.
12:06And yet you still ignored me.
12:08You know, me and Tim have spoken about this, and Lucy is incredibly vulnerable.
12:14Yeah, so all the more reason for me to offer her a little bit of comfort and a little bit
12:18of support.
12:19What's wrong with that?
12:20Nothing.
12:20Right, so what's with the third degree?
12:22She doesn't know you.
12:24In her terminology, you're just a random.
12:28Except I'm not.
12:29Even so, until we tell her, there still has to be boundaries.
12:34Yes, boundaries set by you, Sally.
12:37This is getting us nowhere.
12:37We need to be united on this.
12:40There is no we, Sally, while you and Tim are constantly shutting me out.
12:47Okay, look, I'm gonna...
12:49I'm gonna speak to social services, and I'll explain this situation.
12:56That's good.
12:58That's no offence, Sally.
13:00They're the professionals, not us.
13:01And, as the professionals, they can decide how we proceed.
13:08Agreed?
13:09Agreed.
13:09Right, but until then, you have to abide by our rules and keep your distance.
13:19I'm so sorry, Ash.
13:20Promise I'll make it up to you.
13:22Yeah, I'll keep you updated.
13:24Thanks again for covering.
13:27Morning.
13:28Em, I'm looking for Marco Rhodes.
13:30I had a call to say we brought in earlier.
13:32I've got this.
13:33Thanks.
13:35Summer, would you like to come this way?
13:37Okay.
13:39But is Marco okay?
13:41Has his condition worsened?
13:42Oh, he's fine.
13:43In fact, there's barely a scratch on him.
13:45Well, I was told that he'd been in an accident.
13:47Yeah, he towed a car.
13:49Can I ask, what is your relationship with him?
13:52Erm, we're seeing each other.
13:54Since when?
13:56I'm not sure that's any of your business.
13:59Yeah, well, when lover boy decides to play getaway driver, it becomes my business.
14:08So, how long do we think this assessment will take?
14:12Around one to two hours.
14:16Are you sure we're doing the right thing?
14:18It's the only thing we can do.
14:24Dad.
14:26Dad, it's Shona.
14:27What do you want?
14:29I just want to listen.
14:31Will you open up?
14:34I knew it.
14:35I knew he'd see sense.
14:36Mr. Ramsey, my name's Judith.
14:39Judith Bethel.
14:40And this is Donna Bashir.
14:42We're with the emergency outreach team and would like to talk to you for me.
14:45Didn't waste time sending for the white coal brigade.
14:49Why don't we go back to your daughter's house where we can all be a little more comfortable?
14:53Yeah, I'll do you a tea, Doug.
14:55I'm so sorry, Dad.
14:58As sorry as you will be.
15:17Yeah, we'll see you at seven then.
15:20Okay, bye.
15:23Eva said to expect a visit.
15:25Did she now?
15:26I tried to reassure her.
15:27But after what she's been through, she deserves to know the facts of the situation.
15:30Alright, well, thanks to your little TED talk, Sam's now persona non grata.
15:35Apparently contact is too risky until we start out his meds.
15:38But that could take months.
15:38Yeah, exactly.
15:39So maybe you can tell me how I explained the facts of the situation to Sam.
15:43I'll talk to him.
15:45Yeah, because you did such a bang up job with Eva, didn't you?
15:47Excuse me?
15:49Eva's entitled to her feelings and you don't get to tell her or me otherwise.
15:52Alright, I'm just worried that people are going to see Sam differently from now on.
15:56Well, then it's up to us and Nick to make sure that doesn't happen.
15:59But in the meantime, do you want to try winding your neck in?
16:12Nick never warned you, Shona.
16:14Look, I'll see you really soon, Dad.
16:16Is this really necessary?
16:18Based on our assessment, yes.
16:20We do believe it's prudent.
16:21Yeah, but locking him up?
16:22It's locking him up, mate.
16:23But he does need some treatment.
16:25Treatment which your father has agreed to.
16:28We should get going while he's still calm.
16:30Look, I know it's tough, babe.
16:31I mean, you saw what he was like.
16:33We can't have that around Lillard Harper.
16:36Plus, he threatened you.
16:37He said he'd make you sorry.
16:39He didn't really feel like a threat.
16:41Well, he was.
16:42Trust me.
16:43And before you argue, remember, I've got more experience with that side of Dad, haven't I?
16:48Yeah, I know.
16:50But, I mean, will he go back to normal?
16:53Well, at this stage, it's more a case of stabilising his condition.
16:56You've got our details and we will keep you updated.
16:59We can arrange visitation once Doug's settled in.
17:19I still can't believe he snapped like that.
17:23Truth be told, I'm glad you saw it.
17:27That was my childhood, Shona.
17:29My childhood in all its glory.
17:31I don't know what to say.
17:34How about fancy a drink, sis?
17:39Fancy a drink, sis?
17:42You read my mind?
17:45Oh.
17:47Enjoy.
17:52Yeah, I understand you can't make any guarantees.
17:55I'll see you later.
17:57Okay.
17:57That's great.
17:58Yeah, two o'clock tomorrow.
18:00Thanks, Alia.
18:01Bye.
18:02Bye.
18:03I am so sorry.
18:04Honestly, it's no drama.
18:06How's Marco?
18:07Yeah, he's fine.
18:09There's barely a scratch on him.
18:11Yeah, nothing to worry about then.
18:12What?
18:13Injury-wise, no.
18:15Come on, Chrissie.
18:17You and Sally, you've both said your piece.
18:19Let bureaucracy take over.
18:21You're still galling, George.
18:24Being treated like a hindrance where there could be a help.
18:26Yes, but there is a process and there's a procedure.
18:28No, no.
18:29It's hiding behind rules and regulations more like Leberneck.
18:33I can't believe you're taking Sally's side.
18:35No, Lucy and I have a rapport.
18:38It's as clear as day.
18:39And when the time is right...
18:40No, George.
18:41She needs me now.
18:43Not tomorrow.
18:44Or next week.
18:45Or next month.
18:46Now.
18:48Why don't we change the subject?
18:51Not only do I have to change my identity.
18:54I also have to hide my feelings.
18:55No, of course not.
18:56But things are still very raw.
18:58This has to be about Lucy.
19:01I'm taking Sally's side.
19:03You're practically channelling her now.
19:05The girl has just lost her mother.
19:07She still has her grandmother.
19:16We did the right thing.
19:18We're basically told lies.
19:20We got Dad help.
19:22What is it they say?
19:23A little evil for the greater good?
19:24I certainly won't be losing any sleep over it.
19:27Oh, well, I wish you could be more like you.
19:30Wow, it really got to you, didn't it?
19:32Yes, it did.
19:33You know what?
19:33It scared me.
19:35Scared you?
19:35Yeah, because...
19:38Lately, I've been...
19:39Oh, I don't know.
19:41I've...
19:42I just feel like I can see myself in Dad sometimes.
19:45Oh, come on.
19:45You're nothing like him.
19:46Yeah, well, I pray that you're right.
19:47Because if I ever treated Lillian Harper the way he treated you today,
19:51you wouldn't see me for dust.
19:53Behave.
19:54You'd never leave your family.
19:56Protect them.
19:57I would do anything.
20:02So...
20:03It were an accidental robbery.
20:06You know, good luck to Allie making that stick.
20:09Well, according to Jess, he just thought he was giving some mates a lift.
20:12What, and you believe him?
20:15Well, if that's what he said happened, then yeah, 100%.
20:18Look, Summer, you've known him five minutes.
20:20Time is irrelevant.
20:21We have a bond.
20:22I think Michael's playing you.
20:25Why?

20:39What, why?
20:40Because I've got half a brain cell.
20:41No, because you obviously don't want to see me happy.
