00:00I
00:10I'm Rory
00:13I don't care
00:14She's Felicity
00:16Sorry, I tried my best
00:19Never say never
00:20You've got his number
00:22Stop it. If you just say no to everything that comes along you might accidentally say no to the best thing in your whole life
00:28Hey, it's Felicity. You still keen for that drink?
00:31I checked your medical records at Northern Districts and guess what? No records exist. And who will believe you?
00:37You've got no friends, no allies, not even your sister or your boyfriend
00:41Tell me something, has your big mouth ever gotten you into trouble before? If that's a threat, it's pathetic
00:48It's absolutely a threat. Chase, listen, that problem I warned you about, it just got worse. We need to shut her up
00:53Hey, who's your friend? Chase. Irene's gonna be home soon
00:57Irene will be at the diner until late. It's good as done
01:08Mangrove River, I've heard of it, but I've never actually been there. You wouldn't want to. You said it's the worst station in the state
01:16What does that mean exactly?
01:18Anyone home?
01:19Hey, where you been?
01:21Did you call Leather Boy?
01:24Oh
01:25Hi
01:26Wingwoman, long time no see.
01:28Yeah, so you uh, you ended up getting a drink
01:33Yes
01:34Yes, well one one drink turned into a few which then
01:39Turned into fish and chips on the headline. Old school. I like it.
01:43Hot chips, good company. What more do you need?
01:46Mm-hmm. Now you're, now you're back here
01:49Interesting.
01:51I'm assuming you have a name. That's my brother. Rory, how you doing? Are you from around here, Rory?
01:56Okay, you can call him later. We're gonna be in my room getting to know each other
01:59Turn around. Have fun
02:03Well, she's putting herself back out there, that's what we both wanted
02:07My place? Yeah, good. Yeah, let's do it
02:10You were right about one thing. It's good to see her happy
02:14Yeah
02:17Here we go, love. Thank you. Now, can I get you anything else? Paracetamol, heat pack?
02:24I'm good, thank you
02:27Hey, girly. Hey. Kettles just boiled, fancy a cuppa?
02:31Why, yes, please
02:33How'd the meeting go?
02:35Good, good. My colleagues are really keen to get on board with Tanya's program
02:41Ah, that's great
02:43Except I was in the middle of my pitch and I kept getting all these messages from Dana
02:47Is she home? She said she needed to talk to me
02:50Ah, that's because she probably wants to tell you that she's gone away
02:54Gone away where?
02:55I don't know, I didn't talk to her, but Bronte did
02:58She didn't say where she was going, just that she needed space
03:02Ah, that'd be right
03:04Sorry?
03:05No, she's done this before. Whenever things get tough, she takes off needing space
03:10Should we be worried?
03:12No, it's fine, she always comes back
03:14OK, well, probably wouldn't hurt to check in on her
03:17Yeah, I'll follow
03:25Voicemail
03:27Hey, it's me. Arian said that you've gone away, which is fine
03:31But can you just call me back, let me know where you are?
03:33OK, bye. I'll try her again later
03:36All you can do, love
03:38Yeah
03:40If she's this sick, shouldn't she be with her family?
03:43Oh, that's the sad thing. She doesn't have any
03:47What? None at all?
03:48No, that's what Arian said
03:50I still think it's a bit much, Arian, mortgaging a house for a stranger
03:54Well, she was determined to support her and I wasn't going to let her do it on her own
03:58If it helps a girl get treatment, why not?
04:00Don't we have lovely friends?
04:02Hey, um, is Arian around?
04:04Oh no, she's gone home for the day. Can I help?
04:06Did she say anything about Dana?
04:08No, no, she didn't. Why, what's happened?
04:10Oh, we ended up having words about Bronte
04:13I've tried reaching out to her but she's not answering my calls or my texts
04:16I'm sorry to hear that
04:17Till she gets back to me, there's not much I can do
04:22Could be good, you know, not working in the same place that you live
04:25Wait, how's that?
04:27Well, you won't have to arrest anyone, you know
04:31Come on, what's the problem?
04:34It just feels like the punishment continues
04:37You can have your job back but only if you accept this one posting you can't fill
04:41Since when were you one to shy away from a challenge?
04:45So why you became a cop in the first place?
04:49Okay, if you don't take it, what happens?
04:53I can wait for a position to open up in Yabby Creek
04:56Or we could move to the city
04:58Yeah, that's not going to happen
05:00What do you want to do?
05:03I get that Mangrove River isn't perfect
05:06But you love what you do and you won't have to take an emotion
05:11At least you won't be bored
05:15That's a silver lining
05:17Do you have to decide tonight?
05:19No
05:20Good
05:32Good
05:42Hey, did you get a chance to talk to Dana last night?
05:45Actually no, she's gone away
05:47Seriously?
05:48What, because we had a fight?
05:49I don't really know, she was gone before I got home last night
05:52And she hasn't answered any of my messages or calls
05:55She told me that she needed a break
05:57Dana told you that she's gone away but not us?
05:59I was just at the house when she was leaving
06:01I tried to talk to her but you know how she feels about me
06:04I would have at least thought she'd message me to say she's getting out of town, or you
06:08We just have to give her a chance to cool down
06:10I'm sure she'll be back soon
06:11I've got to go
06:14You okay?
06:15Yeah, yeah I'm fine
06:18I'm so sorry
06:30You should have woken me up
06:37I didn't want to ruin your beauty sleep
06:43Coffee?
06:45Sure
06:48Shh
06:52Got much on today?
06:55Nothing I can't cancel
06:59Sweet
07:02Do you have much on today?
07:05Nothing I can't cancel
07:18Good timing bro
07:19Don't mind me, I'm just grabbing a change of clothes, I'm out of here
07:24Is he always like this?
07:26Like what?
07:28Well most brothers would have run me out of town just for being here
07:30Huh, I wonder why, you make such a stellar first impression
07:34Lucky my second impression makes up for it
07:40Bottom line, it doesn't matter what Cash thinks
07:45I do what I want
07:51Ah, g'day mate, have you managed to sort things out with young Dana?
07:55No, she's still not answering my calls
07:57You really are in the doghouse
07:59Now half a cent she's gone away for a few days, I just, I can't help but feel like Dana's not okay
08:04I get where you're coming from mate, but sometimes people just need a bit of space to sort things out for themselves
08:10Yeah, yeah maybe
08:11Hey, is everything okay?
08:14Who knows?
08:15Well, I'd better get on with it
08:17Actually, can I ask you a question?
08:19Yeah, sure
08:20You have lived in this area forever, right?
08:22I was born here
08:24What can you tell me about Mangrove River?
08:27Why would you want to know about that?
08:29Cash just got a job at the station there
08:32Truth, he's gonna be busy
08:34Why do you say that?
08:35Well the place is nothing but trouble
08:37You tell that fella of yours to be careful, eh?
08:44You
08:51Do you serve?
08:53Live for it
08:55I didn't see you boarding sir
08:57My last one snapped
08:59I'm getting a new one, from um, Manta Ray
09:01Marley's shop?
09:03Yeah, you know it?
09:04Yeah, everyone knows Marley
09:07Are you serf?
09:08No, no
09:12I'm from inland, I'm from the country
09:14So the only water I saw growing up were dirty dams and creeks
09:20How'd you end up here?
09:22I followed my brother
09:25It's just the two of you?
09:26And our foster dad
09:29You're in the system
09:31No, no, no, we were actually really lucky
09:34We got taken in by people we already knew
09:39After dad passed?
09:41What about you?
09:43Your parents still around?
09:46I guess they're somewhere
09:48I haven't had much to do with them since I was a kid
09:51I'm sorry
09:52Don't be
09:54They weren't cut out to be parents
09:56It doesn't matter
09:58I've got my mates
10:00Family's what you make it, right?
10:10Is that a friend of yours?
10:13Yeah, he's uh, he's going through a rough time
10:16I should probably go check on him
10:19Yeah, sure
10:20Meet yourself?
10:21See you there
10:36What are you doing here?
10:38I lost my phone
10:40Well, how'd it go?
10:42Get the job done?
10:46I stuffed up
10:48How stupid are you?
10:50Hey, it's not hard
10:53You pick up the gear and you go
11:06Hang on a sec
11:07Okay
11:08Last night you were all for me taking the job
11:10I know I was, but then I spoke to Alf
11:12Oh, oh, oh
11:13So when I say that it's a terrible person, you don't get it
11:16But then when Alf says
11:17I'm being serious
11:18I'm just, I'm not sure that you should take the job
11:21Maybe just before you make a decision
11:23You should find out what you're walking into
11:25I guess I could track down the person I'm replacing
11:27I could ask them why they're getting a transfer
11:29Yeah, I mean, that can't hurt, right?
11:31Maybe Rose can help
11:34Well, good morning
11:36I'm surprised to see you out of bed today
11:38Yeah, where's your friend?
11:39No time to chat, just checking in
11:42All good here?
11:44All under control
11:48Okay, what's wrong?
11:52If you and your partner had a fight and they left town, would you be worried?
11:56Depends, what did you do to start the fight?
11:58I didn't start the... No, don't worry
12:00Okay, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait
12:01You okay?
12:02No, I'm just confused, mostly
12:06Hi, can I just grab two coffees on the low down on your hot day, please?
12:10Do you want to have a good night?
12:12I had a good night
12:14And a good morning
12:15Oh
12:17You're welcome, by the way
12:19Oh, I miss getting fit
12:21A couple of years ago I would have been able to do a boxing class
12:24Come to think about that now
12:26You were amazing
12:27Things still might change
12:29Yeah, absolutely
12:31Did you check your crowdfunding page this morning?
12:35No
12:37Should I?
12:42Leah!
12:44Thank you, I don't know what to say
12:46You don't need to say anything, I just hope you get the treatment that you need
12:49I'm close, really, really close
12:51Once the rest comes in, I can finally book in
12:53Yeah, I'm sorry, love, my bank is really dragging its feet
12:58Didn't know how to say this before, but I got an email from the clinic
13:02Apparently there's one spot left in the next round of trials
13:05And what happens if you don't take it?
13:07It'd mean I'd have to wait another six months
13:09Which I'm pretty sure I don't have
13:12I'm about to take my break, love
13:14I'll get on to the bank and I'll see if I can carry him along
13:17Thank you, you're both too kind
13:22What can I get you both?
13:24Two iced lattes, please
13:26Coming up
13:28Darling, did Xander get on to Dana last night?
13:31He seemed a bit concerned
13:33No, she went away for a few days and didn't even tell him
13:36Is that unusual that she didn't tell him?
13:39Not if they were fighting, which seem to do a lot
13:42But when she falls for someone, she falls hard
13:45Usually you can't get her off the phone to them, even if it is a fight
13:49Does seem a bit out of character
13:52So, did Dana get back to you at all?
13:54No
13:56I know she's only been gone for a night
13:58But if she's not getting back to anyone, shouldn't he be worried?
14:02Xander is
14:04Yeah, I'll try giving her a call again
14:07Can you grab us a table?
14:08Yeah, sure
14:19That took me longer than planned
14:21Where's your friend again?
14:22He'll be fine
14:23He's lucky to have you looking out for him
14:25That's what I keep telling him
14:26G'day, hi, just wanted to come over and say hi
14:30Didn't really get much of a chance to talk to you last night
14:32That's cool
14:33Cool, Cash
14:34I'm not going to embarrass you, okay?
14:35Hey, would you like to pull up a stool while I buy you a cup of coffee?
14:37Please, take him away
14:40It's Rose
14:42I've got to take this
14:46Hey, how'd you go?
14:47He seems stressed
14:48Yeah, he was off on a job, he's not sure he should take
14:51Oh, I'm sure he'll make the right call
14:52Let's go
14:53Tell Cash bye?
14:54Yep
14:56When did that happen?
14:59Are there any suspects?
15:03No, no, it's fine, it's fine
15:05Thanks for letting me know
15:07What'd she say?
15:10She said the cop I'm replacing was murdered
15:23I'm sorry about my brother, he's just...
15:25I think he's just trying to look out for me
15:27It's fine, just doing what brothers do
15:30Yeah
15:32Anyway, what do you want to do now?
15:35Go for a swim?
15:37We could
15:43We could get out of here, go for a drive
15:46Yeah, where are you thinking?
15:48Somewhere we could stay overnight
15:50Maybe a few nights, even
15:54Well, it's just...
15:56Between your friend and my brother, we keep getting interrupted
16:02If you're not keen, don't worry about it
16:04I'm keen, I'm just...
16:06Surprised
16:09When I left your restaurant the other day, I wasn't sure I'd hear from you at all
16:14Girls are not allowed to change their mind
16:19I'm sorry
16:40Hey you
16:42What's wrong?
16:43Oh, I just still haven't heard from Dana
16:45Oh, I have, I just spoke to her
16:47She called you?
16:49Does she even have your number?
16:50No, no, she called Irene's place and I answered
16:53Well, what did she say?
16:55Where is she?
16:56On a retreat
16:57She wanted everyone to know that she's fine
16:59And that she'll be back in a few days
17:01A retreat?
17:02Um, some silent meditation plays
17:04She told me to tell you and Harper that she won't be answering her phone
17:07Because she's handing it in
17:09Dana went somewhere and voluntarily gave up her phone
17:12That's what she said
17:13But she sounded relaxed
17:15She didn't even apologize to me
17:17How's that?
17:18Yeah, yeah, that's crazy
17:21Maybe this is exactly what she needs
17:24Maybe
17:26Thanks for letting me know
17:28Yeah
17:42You going somewhere?
17:43I am
17:44With Rory?
17:48Look at you
17:49How long for?
17:51What?
17:52No stranger day to lecture?
17:54You only just met him, you don't know anything about him
17:57Don't put any words in my mouth
17:59The last 24 hours have been so great
18:02I just don't want it to end
18:03Have a good time, just be safe
18:05I will
18:06And have fun
18:07Oh, I intend to
18:08Alright, I'll see you in a couple of days
18:10Miss you already
18:13Okay, now, back to you
18:16You're not taking this gig, right?
18:18Babe, a cop died on the job
18:20They still don't know who did it
18:21I know
18:22Then why are you even considering this?
18:24I'm not rushing into anything, okay?
18:26I must say yes
18:27I just want to think about it
18:30Okay
18:31Okay
18:33Okay
18:41Love, I just want to thank you so much
18:43For what you've done for Bronte
18:45Oh, I'm happy to
18:49The bank
18:52Hello, Irene Roberts speaking
18:59Hey, I thought you were heading home to rest
19:01I tried but
19:03I just feel so bad about Dana
19:05She'll come back when she's ready
19:08Hey, great news
19:10No, the bank said yes
19:12Yes
19:13The money will be in the account in 24 hours
19:18It's still too long
19:19They know what it's for, right?
19:22Yeah, love, sorry
19:23I can't do anything about it
19:26I know, I know
19:28I sound ungrateful, it's just
19:30I'm scared
19:32I'm scared
19:33I'm scared that any minute now
19:34Someone is going to take that final spot at the clinic
19:37And I
19:39Let me get you some water
19:42Hey, love
19:44It's okay, we get what you're going through
19:48I'm so close, I just
19:51It's like I'm running out of time
20:00Hey, have you heard from that girl of yours yet?
20:02No, she called Irene's place and told Bronte
20:04She's going to a silent retreat
20:07She's talking to Bronte now and not you
20:09I don't know what's going on
20:10But I do know that Dana's not the silent retreat type
20:12And who calls landlines anymore?
20:14No one from your generation
20:15Right
20:16Dana and I haven't been together long
20:17But she loves to talk
20:19She even gives Palmer a run for his money
20:21Exactly
20:23Something doesn't feel right
20:26Don't tell me to calm down
20:27I'm the one having to spin this rubbish all the time
20:31Leah's money has come through
20:32But Irene's is going to take another 24 hours
20:36No, no
20:37I haven't done all of this work to cut and run now
20:39It is one more day
20:43Once we have this money
20:44We will be done with this place
20:46I promise you
20:54Where on earth is Dana?
20:56The only person she's spoken to is Bronte
20:58Well that doesn't sound right
20:59What the hell is going on?
21:00I know Dana is a handful
21:02But it's one more week
21:03This isn't about greed, Chase
21:04It's an opportunity
21:05What are you saying?
21:06Dana's right
21:07Bronte's lying about being sick
21:09What if she's confronted Bronte?
21:10If she is capable of deceiving and lying
21:12And stealing everyone's money
21:14What else is she capable of?
21:15Isn't that Bronte driving Irene's car?
21:17That's weird
21:18I'll drive
