00:03You know we belong together, you and I forever and ever, no matter where you are, you're
00:17my guiding star.
00:20And from the very first moment I saw you, I never felt such emotion.
00:27I'm walking on it, just to know you are there, hold me in your arms, don't let me go, I
00:43want
00:43to stay forever, home and away, if you restate.
00:54Let me be the one that you turn to, someone you can rely on, closer to stay, home and away.
01:09I never told you hello my father.
01:12Nothing but friendship, according to them.
01:14But you seem to think there's more to it?
01:16Well I don't know if your father got around to telling you, but they were engaged for a
01:20short while, about six months ago.
01:22Engaged?
01:23Yes, it was very short lived, but I wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't still a bit of
01:27a spark there.
01:31Come on Jesse.
01:34Another half hour, and we'll be finished.
01:42Well don't you stand there, get her!
01:43Go Sam, go!
01:46Let me go, let me go!
01:52Jesse, Jesse!
01:55I've got your girlfriend!
01:56Get out of that truck!
02:01What a sucker!
02:02Who?
02:03Who else?
02:04Well I guess that's what tonight's all about though, isn't it?
02:06Yeah, if you say so.
02:08I hope I remember this.
02:10What's the matter if you don't?
02:11Oh nothing, except that I'll be totally humiliated.
02:14In front of this crowd, I don't think so.
02:16What are you playing?
02:17Oh nothing you've heard of.
02:18It's an original.
02:18It's an original conversation.
02:20Yes, well let's hope this puts us on the right track again.
02:23Now if you'll excuse me, I'll get things underway.
02:27Oh Rebecca, I'm glad you're here.
02:29I was just about to get things going.
02:31Seems as though they've been going for quite a while now.
02:34Is everything alright?
02:36Oh wouldn't it be?
02:37What?
02:37I don't know, that's why I'm asking.
02:40I think you're wanted.
02:43Yes.
02:46Dom, I think you'd better get things underway.
02:48The nighters are starting to get restless.
02:50Yes, right Alf.
02:52Right, ladies and gentlemen, good evening.
02:54If you'd all like to take a seat, we'll get started.
02:59What are we going to do?
03:00Not a lot by the looks of it.
03:01Oh, they're going to get away with it.
03:03Did you notice that I'm getting away with it?
03:05Didn't your mother ever tell you?
03:07That's rude to whisper.
03:09Don't worry.
03:10It's tempting, but I'm not going to hurt you.
03:14I wouldn't want anyone to find you like this.
03:17They just might start to believe those wild stories you've been spreading about.
03:20They'll believe us.
03:21We'll make them believe us.
03:22Shut up, Shannon.
03:24There's nothing you can do to harm me.
03:26I just had to get you out of the way for a while.
03:28Once we get rid of this stuff, there's no proof of anything that's been going on.
03:34And as for the law, well, you're just a kid with an overactive imagination.
03:42And you're a bloke with a criminal past.
03:48Oh, and I'm an ex-cop.
03:54They're going to get away with this.
03:56We have to do something.
04:00Okay.
04:02Let's go.
04:08What was Selena with the cops?
04:10Something.
04:22You rotten little mongrel.
04:25I think you've got some company, Mr. Archer.
04:31I can therefore say with confidence that if the government comes to the party, so too can the parents and
04:36citizens of Summer Bay.
04:40Well, that brings the first half of the meeting to an end.
04:43And after a short interval, I'd like to discuss any fundraising ideas you might have.
04:48Or indeed, any offers of financial assistance.
04:53Anyway, you'll find tea and coffee at the back of the room.
04:56Sure.
04:58Rebecca.
05:00Yes?
05:01You still haven't answered my question.
05:03Which question was that?
05:04Well, I asked if you were all right.
05:07Well, maybe I should refrain specifically.
05:10Dad, I'm all right, okay?
05:10Look, you'll have to excuse me.
05:12I want to have a word with Katie before she goes on.
05:20Curtis, what are you doing here?
05:21You're taking over from Marie, who's looking after Duncan.
05:23It's all right.
05:24Her and Duncan are busy watching a movie.
05:25She said she'd do mine so don't tell us over.
05:27Oh, well, that's fine.
05:28And what can I get you then?
05:29Well, actually, I was going to ask you about something.
05:31About this psychiatrist thing.
05:33Sure, love, come through to the kitchen.
05:35The appointment's tomorrow, isn't it?
05:36Yeah.
05:37So does Chloe still want you to go with her?
05:40I think so.
05:41What's the matter?
05:41Don't you want to go?
05:43Well, it's just...
05:44I don't really know why I'm going.
05:46If the psychiatrist asks to see you, London, there must be a good reason.
05:50Yeah, but...
05:51What if it's because he thinks I'm to blame?
05:53Oh, I'm sure that's not the case.
05:55Then why does he want to see me?
05:57Probably because you're the person closest to Chloe.
06:00And he wants to include you in what's going on.
06:03Look, I know from my own experience that it's very important that those dear to you understand what you're going
06:09through.
06:11So you stop worrying about being the problem and start concentrating on being the solution, eh?
06:16Yeah, thanks.
06:19And, seeing as you're at such a loose end, why don't you help me clear up the kitchen?
06:27Before we get into the serious business, I'd like to introduce two young ladies who have shown outstanding abilities,
06:32not only in their academic studies, but artistically as well.
06:35I believe they represent the very qualities that have always been encouraged at Summer Bay High since it opened its
06:40doors 27 years ago.
06:41So, firstly, let me introduce Sally Fletcher, who will be reciting Portia's speech from The Merchant of Venice.
06:51The quality of mercy is not strained.
06:53It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven upon the place beneath.
06:57It is twice blessed.
06:59How could you have been so stupid?
07:02But, Pippa, you nearly got yourself into very serious trouble.
07:07Now, I don't even want to think about what might have happened.
07:10We're all fine.
07:11Shannon, that's not the point. You lied to me twice.
07:14I think I might leave you two.
07:15Jessie, sit down, please.
07:16You were involved in this just as much as the girls, and you're old enough to know better.
07:19You really are, mate.
07:25Pippa, I'm sorry I lied, but no one would believe us, and we couldn't let them get away with it.
07:31How long do you think you're going to get away with it?
07:34Sorry?
07:35This parading around as a crusading journalist, how long do you think you're going to get away with it, Shannon,
07:40before you get seriously hurt?
07:42If something's not right, it's up to the individual to do something about it.
07:46And that's why bad stuff happens, because no one wants to get involved.
07:48The individual can make it...
07:50Shannon, I know about all that, but I don't care about it.
07:53All I care about is that you get your HSC, and you lead a normal, happy, and productive life.
08:01Now, don't you think there's been enough tragedy around here without you being hell-bent on adding to it?
08:10Thank you, Sally.
08:13Next, I would like to introduce a very talented young lady, Casey Mitchell.
08:20Thanks for having me here, my friend, for this project.
08:22Oh, Suddenly I have a musical voice.
08:28And me as a folly child, they drive one of those and I stand up to you.
08:31Thank you, sweep the Edelton Land!
08:32Going back to you...
08:36I'm fine.
08:37You know my name coming, Casey!
08:37You are all over the head and you farm to bibilityako!
08:37That you do, you stand up to the government...
08:38I did so, youieuow...
08:39How long you GDP can make it up.
08:41You are going back to you an important time.
08:41It can be trusted to pass...
08:42How long you stood in repair?'
08:47Yeah.
08:58Oh, hello, love. What can I get you?
08:59Just a coffee, thanks.
09:01I hear things didn't go down too well at the P&C meeting.
09:04That's putting it mildly.
09:06I think Dad was spitting enough chips last night to start an environmental dispute.
09:09Oh, dear. It won't affect support for Donald's fundraising campaign, though, will it?
09:13Well, according to Dad, it will.
09:15But I don't think there were too many people there last night
09:17who hadn't come in contact with a rebellious teenager before.
09:20Why do you think she did it?
09:21Well, I don't know really, but I guess I have to take some of the blame.
09:25Oh?
09:26Well, she said she didn't want to play, and we kept on at her about it.
09:28And I guess last night was payback time.
09:30Oh, teenagers.
09:32Morning.
09:33Morning, Marilyn.
09:35Would you excuse me for a minute?
09:36Yes, of course.
09:37So how do you know Zanotti had nothing to do with it?
09:39Because I was just talking to one of the cops,
09:41and Fern Archer was behind the whole thing.
09:43Apparently Zanotti suspected something was going on,
09:45but he just couldn't prove it.
09:47He couldn't, but we could, huh?
09:48We could.
09:49Have you spoken to Pippa this morning?
09:52No, no, not yet.
09:54You have nothing in common with my father.
09:57Well, I don't agree.
09:58I think we have a lot in common.
09:59We both like the theatre and...
10:01You're totally unsuitable for Dad.
10:03I mean, my God, he's old enough to be your father.
10:05I don't see that age is any reason to stop two people being friends.
10:08And as for not being suited,
10:10well, I think the world would be a really boring place
10:12if everyone was perfectly suited to each other, don't you?
10:14And you're quite happy to make my father look like a fool.
10:18Not to mention yourself.
10:19I mean, if...
10:20Oh, good morning.
10:25Donald.
10:27I didn't realise I was making a fool of you.
10:30I never thought.
10:34I gather you've been providing Chloe with a lot of support
10:36over the past month or so.
10:38I've been trying to.
10:39Well, the continuation of that support
10:41is going to be an important factor in Chloe's recovery.
10:44But it's important also that you take some time for yourself.
10:48Chloe and I have discussed this,
10:49and she realises that at times
10:50you're going to need to get away on your own for a while.
10:54Now, what Chloe and I have been doing
10:56is to try and tackle certain problem areas one at a time.
11:00The goal being to get her back to a situation
11:02where she can operate effectively in society.
11:05You see, the difference between Chloe and most other people
11:08is not that she has problems.
11:09We've all got those.
11:10But rather that she's lost the ability to cope with them.
11:15So, I mean,
11:17you know, how long before...
11:18It's really not possible for me to make a judgement on that.
11:22It depends on a lot of things.
11:24Is there anything you'd like to ask?
11:26Anything that's worrying you?
11:27Oh, no.
11:30Except, uh...
11:31You know, I'm not sure if I should be staying...
11:34You know, close to her.
11:35Or if I should be giving her more space.
11:37Mm-hmm.
11:38I mean...
11:40You know, I've been wondering, uh...
11:42Maybe I'm part of the problem.
11:44What would you say, Chloe?
11:45Do you see Curtis as being part of the problem?
11:50I believe that Chloe feels her relationship with you is important.
11:53But the way in which you see the relationship
11:55also needs to be considered.
11:57Well, yeah, I think it's important, too.
12:00I...
12:00I just wanted to get better
12:02so we can get back to the way it was before.
12:06Chloe, is there anything you want to tell Curtis
12:07about what we've discussed?
12:09No.
12:11Do you disagree with anything I've said today?
12:18Do you feel we're making any progress at all?
12:21No.
12:26Thanks, Alice.
12:29Well, I was told I might find your friend here.
12:31But I just wanted to come and thank your kids in person.
12:34And I also want to explain the other day.
12:37When you young lady came to see me,
12:39I was already aware that Fred was up to something.
12:41I just couldn't prove it.
12:43Believe me, I was only trying to warn you off for your own good.
12:46Guess I should have just been totally honest with you from the start.
12:49But I didn't want it getting round what I was up to.
12:52Worked my buffer for years building this business up.
12:55Thought that meant I was entitled to put my feet up a bit.
12:58Took my eye off the ball.
13:00Won't be doing that again.
13:02Hello, Pip. Coffee?
13:04Oh, yeah, thanks, Alice.
13:05Hey, I hear that Shannon and the others
13:07were responsible for Fred Archer's demise.
13:09You must be very proud.
13:11Yeah, I am.
13:14You're kidding.
13:14I need someone I can trust.
13:17And this time, no dodgy overtime, eh?
13:19How's a nice safe office job sound?
13:22Sounds fantastic.
13:24Hey, Frank.
13:24Hey, Al.
13:25How's the car going?
13:27Uh, we've hit a brick wall.
13:28Need some more parts, but just can't find them anywhere.
13:30Well, this might be a lucky day.
13:32I bumped into a mate of mine who's got a pile of parts
13:34he wants to get rid of cheap.
13:36Sick.
13:36Doing up an old car, eh?
13:37Yeah, we were, um, going to put it in the variety club bash,
13:40but I'll just be happy with getting it up and running now.
13:44Hey, Pip, I'm really sorry.
13:48I'm sorry, too.
13:50I guess it was just the thought of what might have happened to you
13:52was a bit too much for me to bear.
13:55What you did was very courageous, Shannon.
13:57I'm very proud of you.
13:58Really?
13:59Yeah.
14:00Can you promise me one thing?
14:01Yeah, what?
14:01That you'll never do it again.
14:05I'll talk.
14:14How dare you.
14:16I'm your daughter.
14:17I have a right to an opinion.
14:18Being my daughter does not give you the right to say
14:20who I may or may not be friends with.
14:24I seem to remember you saying
14:25when you dropped out of concert playing
14:26you could not live your life for me.
14:28I'm surprised you could be so hypocritical
14:30to assume the same doesn't apply
14:32when the situation's reversed.
14:35But whatever your opinion, Rebecca,
14:37I would strongly advise you from now on
14:39to keep it to yourself.
14:51Well, do you think that trying to help Curtis
14:53understand the process you're going through
14:55has helped you?
14:56No.
14:58Are you still worried about the dream?
15:03Yeah.
15:05Okay.
15:07Let's talk about that some more.
15:11Who do you think your anger
15:13is directed towards in that dream?
15:17Is it Curtis?
15:19No.
15:20Is it me?
15:22No.
15:25Is it your father?
15:26Don't be stupid.
15:30Let's just say, for argument's sake,
15:32that it is your father.
15:34Can you see any way in which
15:36your inability to do your schoolwork
15:38could be linked to him?
15:43Oh, God, can you believe it?
15:44Yeah, Fisher must have been having kittens.
15:46I guess when Casey says
15:47she doesn't want to play the piano,
15:49she means it.
15:50Okay, everyone, take your seats, please.
15:54Today, we're going to talk a little bit about
15:56what music means to us.
16:01Music can be many things to many people.
16:04A source of entertainment,
16:05a conduit for our emotions,
16:07or a means of escaping them.
16:09For myself, I'd have to say
16:10that all those things apply.
16:12Music can be a magical experience,
16:14but for those of you lucky enough
16:16to have the gift of bringing music to life,
16:18you also carry with you the burden
16:20of other people's expectations,
16:22and with those expectations comes fear.
16:25Fear of failure,
16:26fear of letting other people and yourself down.
16:28For some musicians,
16:30the pressure is what drives them.
16:31Others crumble under it.
16:33I guess that's one of the reasons
16:34I never made it as a concert pianist.
16:37Today, we're going to talk about some of the greats.
16:39Mozart, Beethoven,
16:42Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison.
16:45Try and understand the fears and pressures they suffered.
16:49Emotional, financial, and parental.
16:52And try and decide whether or not
16:54those pressures helped or hindered them
16:55in the pursuit of their art.
16:58Music.
17:04Hi.
17:06Casey, we're sorry, okay?
17:07Really, we shouldn't have dobbed you into Fisher.
17:09Yeah, we heard what you did last night.
17:10Yeah, and we think it was really great.
17:11I'd never have the courage to do something like that.
17:13And it's so flathead right, though,
17:14for trying to pressure people
17:15into doing things they don't want to.
17:17The only thing I don't understand
17:18is why you hate playing the piano
17:19when you're so good at it.
17:20Well, I don't hate it.
17:21Oh, you could have thought, mate.
17:23It's kind of complicated.
17:24So, tell us what happened.
17:25Did Fisher spit the dummy?
17:30Stillings by the look of it.
17:36Donald.
17:38Marilyn, I believe it's time we talked.
17:41Still, you are not going to believe what just happened.
17:43What?
17:44Guess.
17:44What?
17:45Guess.
17:46I can't guess, just tell me.
17:47So, Nottie is going to put up the 7,000
17:49for the entry fee for the bash.
17:51Unreal.
17:52Can you believe it?
17:53Finally, something's going my way.
17:55It's all systems go.
17:56Alf's going to help me with the parts we need.
17:58We've got the entry fee.
17:59Only thing I need is a navigator.
18:02What?
18:02Jesse!
18:04Alf.
18:06Oh, Donald.
18:08I can't believe it.
18:10I've given it a great deal of thought, Marilyn.
18:14Marilyn?
18:14Dad, I'm glad you're here.
18:16I've been thinking a lot about what you said earlier
18:18about trying to live your life for you,
18:20and you're absolutely right.
18:22I was being very selfish and narrow-minded,
18:24and I'd like to apologise.
18:26You have the right to be friends with whomever you choose.
18:31Well, I'm glad to hear you say that, Rebecca,
18:33because I'd like you to be the first to know
18:34that Marilyn and I have decided to get married.
18:47I'm sorry about this morning.
18:50You've got nothing to be sorry about.
18:52That wasn't me and me.
18:54I don't know what happens.
18:55He's just asked me all those stupid questions,
18:57and they've got nothing to do with anything.
18:59You know what he reckons now?
19:01He reckons that the reason I'm not doing very well
19:04at my schoolwork is because being academic
19:05was something I did to get Dad's approval.
19:08And since Dad has betrayed me by what he did,
19:10I've formed some kind of a mental block
19:12when it comes to doing things that keep me happy.
19:15Hey, guys.
19:16Hey, how did your appointment with a psychiatrist go today?
19:19I remember when I had to go and see a shrink.
19:21I hated it at first.
19:22You know, you practically had to drag me there
19:24kicking and screaming.
19:25Well, I thought it was garbage.
19:27But, you know, gradually I started unravelling things.
19:30A whole lot of stuff that I didn't want to remember,
19:32let alone talk about.
19:34But as I did, everything became clearer.
19:36It was really good.
19:38Yeah, yeah, I know what you mean.
19:40I reckon it takes some time, but everything's going fine,
19:44and Curtis came with me this morning.
20:11Oh, I didn't know anyone was here.
20:14Why did you give up concert playing?
20:16It wasn't good enough.
20:17Simple as that.
20:18So how did your parents take it?
20:20Mum was fine.
20:21Dad had a hard time accepting it.
20:24How about you?
20:25Did you find it hard accepting it
20:27that you weren't good enough?
20:29It was the hardest thing I've ever been through.
20:31When I finally realised I was never going to make it,
20:34I thought I might as well just stay in bed
20:36and never get up again.
20:38Do you know this?
20:43Would you like to join me?
21:08You know we belong together.
21:12You know we belong together.
21:14And I forever endeavour.
21:17Until the end of time, I'm yours and you are mine.
21:24Ooh, I couldn't spend another minute
21:29Living my life without you in it
21:34It's suddenly clear
21:37I will always need you here
21:42Hold me in your arms, don't let me go
21:48I want to stay forever
21:51Home and away
21:54With you we stay
22:00You know we belong together
22:06Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
22:10Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
