00:00Previously, on Shortland Street, you ever tried to break up with someone who won't let you?
00:03Just be honest. And clear.
00:05I'm just scared everyone might think I'm a dick again.
00:07Hey, so, about us. I was thinking...
00:10What do you feel like? The salmon looks good.
00:12You hit me.
00:13You break-checks me.
00:14If you want me to give you $5,000, you're gonna need to give me a bit of time.
00:18You've had time.
00:19Okay, okay, I'll give you your money, okay?
00:21First thing tomorrow morning.
00:23First thing?
00:24You're a girl.
00:51You're late.
00:53It's not funny. I've got work to do.
00:56Take your five grand and go home.
01:01About that.
01:02It's ten now.
01:03What?
01:04No, you said five.
01:06That was yesterday.
01:07But I've paid you. We're done here.
01:09So, end of day. Pick it up.
01:13I don't have more.
01:14Okay, that's it. That's everything.
01:17You'll find it.
01:40Sorry, Dr. Grayson.
01:42Yeah, you will be.
01:47So, Rachel didn't run around the hospital.
01:49She just glided and it made her look like, you know, she was more powerful in the eyes of...
01:53Cut the live stream.
01:54Oh, so sorry.
01:56This thing just has a mind of its own.
01:58It's exposure.
01:59Yay. Excellent, Paul. Thank you.
02:01And now people will forget about your nappies.
02:05Okay, I've got nothing to say to either of you.
02:07I am needed in surgery.
02:09Phil, wait.
02:11I can fix this.
02:14Do you know what they say about people who keep doing the same thing and expect a different result?
02:18Are you having a moment of self-reflection now?
02:21Callum be impressed.
02:22I'm talking about him, Libby.
02:25Buddy, Mr. Fix-It-Pool.
02:27You live streamed me without my consent.
02:29I know, and I'm trying to contain it.
02:32Contain it.
02:33You created it.
02:35No statement.
02:36No spin and no optics.
02:39You don't touch my career again.
02:45Oh, no.
02:48She's a gift now.
02:51I'm so sorry.
02:57Morning.
02:58What do you know?
02:59Passion in room four is asking for you.
03:01Okay, Daniel.
03:04Hey.
03:05How you going?
03:07Yeah, good.
03:09And Finn, how's he going?
03:11I'm sorry?
03:12I'm just asking.
03:13I'm not checking up on you.
03:14Oh, well, my mistake because, I don't know, it sounds like you are checking up on me.
03:18Well, I'm not.
03:19I'm just...
03:20Protecting, managing, supervising.
03:24Finn's done the work, and I trust him.
03:26Oh, so you are seeing each other.
03:28Oh, my God.
03:29Are we going to do this every couple of days where you stick your nose in and I tell you
03:32to butt out?
03:32No.
03:33Sorry.
03:33And can you do me a favor, Marty?
03:35Stop talking about me behind my back.
03:37What?
03:37I know you are.
03:40Traumatic way to start the day.
03:42My enemy's just swallowed a battery.
03:46Something wrong?
03:47She literally just told me to stop talking behind her back.
03:50Esther?
03:51Her and Finn.
03:52Something is definitely going on.
03:54What?
03:55But you know that for sure.
03:57I can just...
03:58I know her.
04:00Okay, yesterday you were telling me not to worry.
04:01Now I'm worried.
04:02But what he did to her before?
04:03You think we're just supposed to ignore that?
04:05No.
04:06So you've completely changed your mind from yesterday?
04:08Wait, why are you hassling me about this?
04:10I care about her, Marty.
04:11Obviously not in the same way that you do.
04:14I know it's complicated.
04:16Yeah.
04:17But we can't ignore that it's happening.
04:19Esther could be in danger.
04:22So is breakup number two any more successful?
04:25It didn't happen.
04:26I got ambushed.
04:27And then Chris and Mariyama showed up to the dinner.
04:31Man, I'm in over my head, eh?
04:32Double day.
04:33Oh, we could do that, eh?
04:35Morning!
04:37Izzy, hey, what are you...
04:38I just wanted to come to your egg thing.
04:41If that's okay.
04:43Um, we're just about to go in.
04:44I won't interrupt, promise.
04:47I just thought support might be nice.
04:51It's fine.
04:53It's fine.
05:03Hey, don't worry about it.
05:05I've got you.
05:06Okay.
05:07So tell me again what happened.
05:09On my way to school, I slipped on some wet steps and stuck my arm out.
05:13Just kind of anchor.
05:16Right.
05:17Sorry.
05:20So you're anyone still at home?
05:22No.
05:23They're at work.
05:24Who's they?
05:25They're my foster parents.
05:27Hey, Cody, can I have a word?
05:29Sure.
05:30We'll be back in a seat.
05:33Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
05:35I don't know yet.
05:37Those bruises aren't from stairs.
05:39I just don't think we should jump to any conclusions.
05:41Okay.
05:44How about we get you somewhere quieter?
05:46A little bit more privacy.
05:48Okay.
05:48Sound good?
05:49Yeah.
05:50Hey, excuse me.
05:51Do you think we could get her into a room?
05:55No.
05:56No time to.
05:56She's just feeling a bit uncomfortable with all the alcohol in a bit.
06:02Give me a minute.
06:03Thanks.
06:04Okay.
06:05Hey, when can I eat?
06:06I'm starving.
06:07Well, seeing as you already have a few batteries in your stomach, we actually can't feed you anything.
06:12And please don't eat anything in the general area.
06:28He's back.
06:31What be?
06:34I gave him the money.
06:36And?
06:38Now it's more.
06:40How much?
06:43Ten.
06:44Jesus.
06:45Okay, this is definitely not about the car anymore.
06:47I'll find a way out of this.
06:49How?
06:49You already tried that by giving him all of your money.
06:53He shouldn't even be here.
06:55He said end of day.
06:56He is stalking you at work.
06:59I don't know what else to do.
07:00Call the police.
07:02No, no.
07:03That'll make it worse.
07:04Honey, he has been into your workplace multiple times.
07:07You don't fix that alone.
07:10Look, there's a cop escorting a patient up in ED right now.
07:14We tell him.
07:15Okay?
07:17Bobby, this guy is clearly not going to stop.
07:20You have to do something.
07:27Okay.
07:28Okay.
07:33If we push the late roster back half an hour, ED will clear faster before the evening search.
07:39But that only works if the wards answer their phones.
07:41Otherwise, we just send the bottleneck upstairs.
07:43Fair.
07:44I'll talk to bed management.
07:46It's good seeing you last night, by the way.
07:48Yeah.
07:50Oh, hey.
07:51Hey.
07:52Yeah, dinner was fun.
07:53We should make it a regular thing.
07:56Dinner?
07:56You were there.
07:58So, all sorted then?
08:00Yeah, no, good.
08:02You and Izzy looked good together.
08:04And she seems happier, you know.
08:05Whatever wobble there was, it looks like you've sorted it out.
08:09Yeah, yeah, we had a good chat.
08:11Good man.
08:13Oh, one more thing.
08:14A colleague at Minniamis has a corporate box for the game on the weekend if you and Izzy would like
08:19to join us.
08:20Yeah, totally.
08:21Perfect.
08:22I'll tell him you're coming.
08:26Making plans with your girlfriend.
08:28It got complicated.
08:29It already was complicated.
08:31That was the point.
08:31Her mum was there with Chris.
08:33Mm-hmm.
08:34Another classic move.
08:35Now, they think you committed too.
08:37Look, you didn't spare her, mate.
08:38You just postponed it.
08:40Look, if you're not in, don't act like you are.
08:43That's how people get hurt.
08:45Any idea what the issue was?
08:47We'll clean it up, take it apart, and assist for damage.
08:50Yeah, I want a full report on what went wrong.
08:52Oh!
08:52Oh, no!
08:53Oh, I think that's what I tripped on.
08:57Well, that's one way to preserve the mystery.
08:59I'm so sorry.
09:00Hey, I've been thinking about the narrative.
09:02Don't.
09:04The video isn't really a problem.
09:06People can forgive a rogue telecast.
09:08Tell that to John Kessler Greenway handshake.
09:10My point is, what people respond to is relatability.
09:14Relatability.
09:15We reposition you.
09:17Humanize it.
09:17Self-aware.
09:18Maybe even a light interview.
09:19Piss off, Paul.
09:20What I'm saying is, if they warm to you, the clip dies.
09:24Or it lives as more of a laugh with than a laugh at.
09:27So what you're saying is it's a personality issue?
09:30No.
09:30Perception.
09:32My perception?
09:33Public perception.
09:34Of me.
09:36Because I'm not likeable enough.
09:38I didn't say that.
09:39You absolutely did.
09:40Audiences need an access point.
09:43Warmth offsets.
09:44You humiliated me.
09:46And I'm trying to fix it.
09:48Try owning it for once.
09:55Officer Taylor?
09:57Yeah.
09:58Hi.
09:59Hi.
09:59Tell him.
10:01There's this guy repeatedly coming into the hospital demanding money from me.
10:05Has he threatened you?
10:07Not directly.
10:08Okay.
10:09Has he followed you or contacted you outside of work?
10:12No.
10:12Just keeps showing up.
10:15At the moment, there's nothing I can charge him with.
10:17But look, there's something you can do.
10:19Which is?
10:20Have the hospital wish you a trespass notice.
10:22If he returns after that, I can arrest him and charge him.
10:25Right.
10:27No worries.
10:29Okay.
10:30I will go back to work.
10:30Keep an eye on our friend.
10:31You'll find Paul.
10:32Okay.
10:37Hey.
10:37I heard Eddie Riddell's come in.
10:39We moved her to room three.
10:41Just to be safe.
10:43Okay.
10:46Hey, kiddo.
10:48Hey.
10:51Did you want to tell me what happened?
10:53I fell over.
10:56Okay.
10:58I'll be right back.
11:02What's going on?
11:05Distal radius, ulnar fracture, and maybe a clavicle fracture, which could technically
11:09happen if she slipped on the steps.
11:11Okay.
11:12But there's another thing.
11:13She's got bruising that doesn't quite fit.
11:16What do you mean?
11:18Around her upper arm.
11:18She's got bruising.
11:20Maybe a thumb imprint.
11:22Not from a foot.
11:24Are you sure?
11:25She didn't get that bruise from falling.
11:28Did she say anything?
11:29Well, I was hoping she would open up a little bit more when we got in there, but no.
11:33Yeah, and she flinches at any sudden movement.
11:36Okay.
11:37Have the foster parents been informed?
11:38Mm-hmm.
11:39I called.
11:40Okay.
11:41Just give me a second with her alone.
11:42See if she talks to someone she knows.
11:44Okay.
11:45Hey, matey.
11:48So.
11:50Steps, huh?
11:52You know, if something else happened, you won't get in any trouble.
11:57You don't have to protect anyone, Edda.
12:00Hey, I've just heard your foster parents are on the way, Edda.
12:04Which one?
12:05Your foster dad, Mark.
12:09Edda, I'm on your side, okay?
12:12Whatever you tell me, I'll know it's the truth.
12:16I fell over.
12:25You're ignoring me.
12:26We're at work.
12:28Doesn't mean you should act as if I don't exist.
12:30Maddie was asking his dreams.
12:32I don't care.
12:34I do.
12:34And you're trying to prove the lines here.
12:36I thought...
12:37Don't.
12:38Don't think?
12:40This stays professional.
12:41No lingering, no secret looks, no affection.
12:44We're not doing anything wrong.
12:46That's beside the point.
12:52Enjoying what we have, and I will not become hospital gossip.
12:56If it even starts to look that way, then you're done here.
12:59Seriously?
13:00So, so what are we then?
13:02Contained.
13:02You behave, you keep your distance, and I say when aware.
13:07Okay.
13:08Good.
13:11And you have a consult in six minutes.
13:20I like him.
13:22He's not your usual type.
13:23Did you fake laugh at his jokes?
13:25No.
13:26I didn't need to.
13:26He is genuine, and I like that.
13:28And you seem happier.
13:30I am.
13:31Well, that's nice.
13:32And karma, too.
13:33Who's karma?
13:34Izzy.
13:35Finally.
13:35Finally.
13:36Aye.
13:37Davili effect, eh?
13:39Something like that.
13:40I've got surgery dinner again soon.
13:42Mm-hmm.
13:45You didn't want him back, you know.
13:47I didn't lose him either.
13:49Nah.
13:49You just stopped chasing and opened the gate.
13:54For real, Kotiro?
13:55You've got a farm story for every occasion.
13:58Well, before he had to decide if he was in.
14:01Now he just stays where it's easy.
14:04Sheep will choose the paddock with the best grass.
14:07Doesn't mean they chose the farm.
14:10Or maybe we like each other.
14:12Maybe.
14:13But just make sure you're choosing him.
14:16Not just choosing to win.
14:18I know what I'm doing, Cinderella.
14:19Queer, queer, queer, Isabella.
14:24Do you remember those sour lolis we had that time?
14:27They were really spicy.
14:28What were they called again?
14:30Bombs?
14:31Were they sour bombs or something?
14:33Hi, Ada.
14:35Need you here.
14:37Hey, can I steal you for a sec?
14:40Yeah, of course.
14:43Look, I apologise about before, but...
14:45And I'm not here for that.
14:46I'm here for sort of consult.
14:48And Sage mentioned some strange bruising on it.
14:51Yeah, something is not right.
14:54Okay.
14:55The story, the bruising, the reaction.
14:57Is she heard who's coming?
14:59Who?
15:00Mark, the foster father.
15:03And you think...
15:05Has it escalated?
15:06No, not yet.
15:07He's on his way.
15:08Well, then we follow protocol.
15:10But you didn't see her face.
15:12I do not want her gone back there.
15:14Well, neither do I, but standing guard isn't the same as protecting her.
15:17That's not what I'm doing.
15:18Well, then what are you doing?
15:19I'm...
15:21I'm being here for her.
15:23Well, just don't make it about what you think you owe her.
15:25I can only let the system work.
15:26And if it doesn't?
15:27That's when we push back properly.
15:29I know you're concerned, so mother, let's not lose perspective.
15:32Okay.
15:34Is he still in there?
15:36Oh, just wait, Emmett.
15:38This little girl means I like the one.
15:40Yeah, well, I hope he doesn't forget we've got other patients who need him too.
15:50You obviously didn't hear me when I told you to piss off.
15:53Reputations are recoverable.
15:54Trust me, I know.
15:55We just need a different entry point.
15:57I'm not an entry point, thank you very much.
16:00No, you are a brilliant surgeon who people currently associate with a viral disaster.
16:04I can change that.
16:05Is there a way I can say, leave me the hell alone, that will penetrate that skull of yours?
16:15You got it?
16:22Yes, she stopped him, arrow tackle.
16:25Nice work, Doc.
16:26We would have lost him.
16:27He just fell.
16:28Like a sack of potatoes.
16:30Took him down like a front rower.
16:33We're going to escape.
16:34Appreciate it.
16:35Did you get that?
16:37No, not all of that.
16:39Dr. Phil Grayson.
16:40What a hero.
16:42I can delete it.
16:43No, no, no.
16:44I want a copy.
16:53Oh, man, she loves this toy.
16:55I can only wash it while she's asleep.
16:58Have to make sure it's clean and dry by the time she wakes up.
17:02You hungry?
17:03Do you need anything?
17:06Hey, Marty, he's here.
17:08Okay.
17:09Marty.
17:10Yeah.
17:11I don't want to go home.
17:14Eda, listen.
17:15It's really important you tell me what happened.
17:20I just wanted to do this dance with my friends, but I had to practice.
17:24They're way better dancers than me.
17:27I had to watch them, so I took his phone.
17:31And then?
17:34He grabbed my arm.
17:36So hard.
17:37And he pulled me down the stairs.
17:40Made me do the dishes, but my arm wouldn't work.
17:45Thank you for telling me.
17:46I'm going to sort this out, okay?
17:48And how you are not in trouble with anyone.
17:54What do you want me to do?
17:56Call on the social worker.
17:57I'm going to do an allegation of harm and care.
17:59Document her injuries and everything she just said exactly as she said it.
18:02No more questions, okay?
18:04Got it.
18:06Can you take this one?
18:07Uh, alert Emmett first.
18:09Make sure the foster dad cannot get through.
18:12Of course.
18:14Do not leave her side.
18:16It's okay.
18:16She's safe.
18:21Hey.
18:22It's okay.
18:23It's just us.
18:38Um, did you know that my dad is, like, your foster dad?
18:46You know, um, I actually know when my dad is going to get, well, I'm just going to get so
18:50angry.
18:51And, um, I just, like, I hide my brother under the house.
18:55Yeah.
18:56Don't you get to live away from your dad now?
18:58Oh, I wish.
19:01No.
19:01But one day, me and Cody, we are going to live in the biggest mansion in the world.
19:09Yeah.
19:09Cool.
19:10Yeah.
19:11You know, I'm actually going to be a doctor.
19:12And then I'll be like, hello, is your heart at home?
19:16And, yeah, I'm going to make so much money.
19:19And it's going to be the best.
19:22I wish I had a brother.
19:24Yeah.
19:24Brother's all right.
19:27But, you know, I actually, I really like hanging out with you two.
19:41I really like hanging out with you two.
20:12Hi.
20:14Yeah, it's me.
20:16I need your help.
20:19Well, you can't even go right up to the top, because when you do the everything...
20:22How are we going in here?
20:23Hands out.
20:25Um, we're waiting on the social worker, I think.
20:30Okay.
20:31Do you need a break?
20:31I can get someone else to tag in.
20:33No, I'm fine.
20:34Okay, I just have one more patient to take on.
20:36It won't be long, okay?
20:37Okay.
20:38Who's in charge around here?
20:40I want to see them now!
20:42Marty.
20:42Is that him?
20:44It's okay.
20:44It's okay.
20:45He doesn't know you're in here, okay?
20:46I shouldn't have told you.
20:47No, no, no, no.
20:48You did the right thing, Edda.
20:49But it'll hurt Cahu, and it'll be my fault.
20:51But Cahu doesn't live with you.
20:53He said if I told anyone about what he did to me, he'd find her.
20:58And that's why you didn't want to tell me?
21:00You can't let him hurt her.
21:02She's not like me.
21:03She won't know what to do.
21:04I won't.
21:04I won't.
21:05Okay?
21:06I am going to sort this out.
21:07All right?
21:07I'll be straight back, and you're safe here with Cody, okay?
21:10I'll be straight back.
21:11You don't get to tell me how to raise my daughter!
21:14Is that her?
21:14It sounds really scary.
21:15Will you hide her?
21:18Just tell me where she is!
21:20All right.
21:30Hey, we are going to wait right here, okay?
21:34Don't worry.
21:36Okay?
21:36He's not going to come through.
21:38All right?
21:39Hey.
21:39Hey, don't worry.
21:41This is ridiculous!
21:43I'm not scared of him, okay?
21:44Don't look out there.
21:45Look at me.
21:46Look at me.
21:47Hey.
21:49Breathe.
21:50Breathe with me.
21:51You ready?
21:54In and out.
21:57He is never going to hurt you again, Etta.
22:02I promise.
22:04This is ridiculous!
22:06Okay, you're going to need to calm down.
22:07I'm responsible for that, kid.
22:09I agree, mate.
22:10What?
22:11It's ridiculous.
22:12You have no to sit around and wait.
22:14Who are you?
22:14I'm Emmett Whitman.
22:15I'm head of ED.
22:17Look, Etta's getting an x-ray, but they're jam-packed at the moment.
22:19She's going to be a while.
22:20So why don't you grab a coffee and wait.
22:23Sage will come and find you.
22:24I was told that she fell.
22:26That is what she said.
22:28She, uh, she does this sometimes.
22:31Does what?
22:32Acts up to get attention.
22:34Perks of raising someone else's kid, huh?
22:36Yeah.
22:37Yeah, good on you, mate.
22:38You're doing the Lord's work.
22:39I'll just wait here.
22:40Yeah, sure.
22:42She's not in radiology.
22:44I know.
22:46You Mark Higgins?
22:47Yeah.
22:47She is 12 years old!
22:49And you threatened her?
22:50I swear to God, I'm going to make you pay.
22:52Get off me!
22:52You will never lay a finger on me!
22:54Get off me!
22:55Do you understand me?
22:56Do you understand me?
22:58Get off me.
