00:02This song comes on a playlist that Sonya and I played on the day that she died.
00:06You should still tell Therese.
00:07You okay?
00:08Yeah.
00:09I read online that I should get a flouse.
00:11Maybe you can just tell her you like her.
00:12You mean I might get back in Darrensborough High?
00:14Well, maybe.
00:15It's disloyal to Andrew and Sadie.
00:17You're literally denying that they exist.
00:19Wendy, Wendy, Wendy.
00:21We're in the campsite with those double books.
00:23Mum, what's going on?
00:26Neighbours
00:29Everybody needs good neighbours
00:33With a little understanding
00:38You can find the perfect blend
00:44Neighbours
00:46Should be there for one another
00:51That's when good neighbours become good friends
01:00Get out of here, man.
01:02Take it easy.
01:14I'm really sorry about the whole hating on you thing.
01:18I swear, if I'd have known you were married,
01:20I never would have...
01:22All good.
01:23You know, yeah.
01:24No need to get into all that.
01:26But thank you for helping break up the party.
01:30Of course.
01:31That's what friends do.
01:37See you tomorrow?
01:39Sure.
01:50You know that guy was like totally hitting on you, right?
01:53Lucky only I saw.
01:54It was kind of brought to my attention.
01:57Jeez, how much have you had to drink?
02:01Well, just a couple, I think.
02:09Well, maybe hit the waters before trying to explain any of this to Dad.
02:21So, while we were pointlessly moving furniture around,
02:24it looks like the Rodwells were having a good old-fashioned barn-burner.
02:27Why weren't we invited?
02:29I think we might be a bit over the age limit there, babes.
02:32No.
02:33Hey, can I go to Winnipeg with Dexter tomorrow?
02:36Oh, that's duty-free day.
02:39Yeah, sorry.
02:40Yeah, go for it.
02:41Oh, actually...
02:42No.
02:43You don't even know what I was about to say.
02:45You're going to make us bring Hugo in?
02:47Sadly, but Winnipeg's declared itself as a little brother-free zone.
02:52I don't think it has.
02:54Why are you back from camping?
02:56Oh, it was a bust.
02:58Perfect.
02:59You can come with us to Winnipeg tomorrow.
03:02Oh, nah, I'm sure you guys have already got it all planned out.
03:05Come on, the more the merrier.
03:10Look, your trip's cancelled, what else have you got planned?
03:14Nah, I've got nothing. Yep.
03:16Exactly.
03:17It's going to be awesome. Yeah?
03:19Yeah.
03:27Hey, did you know Daniel Long ran for Parliament?
03:30I did not.
03:31Yep, I found out all about it during his check-up.
03:34It's fascinating learning about the residents.
03:36It is, I agree.
03:37Yeah, like Penny Craig.
03:39She had an art exhibition.
03:41I've been encouraging her to dig out her brushes.
03:43Yeah, well, you know, it's been a big day.
03:46Maybe we should find a way to switch off.
03:50Good idea.
03:52Dessert?
03:54Or we could go home and improvise.
03:59Melanie and Holly are out for the night.
04:02Yeah.
04:05Thank God you're still here.
04:07What are you doing here? I thought you were at the movies with Holly and Krista.
04:10Well, Krista didn't even know about it because Holly forgot to tell her.
04:13And it turns out that Holly's working anyway.
04:15So I'm lumped with two spare tickets.
04:20Free.
04:21Oh, count me in.
04:23Susan?
04:25How could I refuse an offer like that?
04:27I'll get the bill.
04:30Yay, movie night.
04:32Movie night.
04:33I'm not sure I want to know how this got there.
04:37Oh, that must be why Quinn was asking me if we had paper towel.
04:40Here, just leave it because I'm going to do the cleaning up, OK?
04:45Maybe when you're in a bit more of a coordinated state.
04:53Quinn, he's the bloke you were dancing with?
04:58Yeah, just uni friend and had a bit too much to drink today.
05:02Yeah.
05:03So this Barbie was accidentally a blow up or was it always meant to be a rage up?
05:12The latter.
05:14I just didn't think that you would approve.
05:16Since when did you see me as the fun police?
05:20Since when did you start wearing Sadie's clothes?
05:25Oh, you know, I was just trying to fit in.
05:27With a bunch of kids?
05:28No, who assumed that I was younger when we first met.
05:33Right.
05:34And how much younger?
05:39In my twenties.
05:41And I just figured, you know, there's no harm in just going with it.
05:46And I was pulling it off.
05:49I'm sure you were.
05:53Maybe loop me in next time you plan on having a party.
05:56And let me know if you want the oldies out of the way.
06:02Thank you for not being mad.
06:06Don't worry, you'll get your punishment tomorrow.
06:09You're going to feel like hell.
06:14So Andrew and Sadie had no idea?
06:17No.
06:18How many people were there?
06:20Oh, I don't know, yeah, there were heaps.
06:22It was pretty awkward so I just bailed.
06:24Huh, didn't know Wendy had a dinner.
06:27Never would have guessed.
06:29I bet Andrew will think twice before he ever goes fishing again.
06:32Yeah, sorry the trip got cancelled.
06:34I know you were looking to get busy tomorrow.
06:36Yeah, yeah, yeah, well, you know, either way,
06:39I've been sitting around waiting for the verdict to happen.
06:42To school or not to school.
06:44Fine.
06:46I'll learn a poem called Take Your Mind Off It.
06:48Oh, you going to go with Dax here now?
06:50Um, sure, maybe, yeah, I don't know.
06:54Maybe if something else comes up.
06:58Is this about the ghost train?
07:00Because no one's going to make you go on it again.
07:02That was five years ago.
07:05It's not funny.
07:07Sorry, mate.
07:10All right, table is set.
07:12I'll go round up that annoying brother of mine.
07:14Oh, hey, if you change your mind about taking him to Luna Park.
07:16Not a chance.
07:18Um, Wendy, I'll take that.
07:22Oh, you still have the letter to D.
07:25Uh, yeah, yeah, you were right.
07:27I should have responded to the last one.
07:29Didn't get very far.
07:31Yeah, not much past D, D.
07:33I guess there's just so much to catch her up on.
07:35I'll get back to it.
07:38Ah.
07:39What problem?
07:41Uh, it's the real estate agent that looks after the nursery.
07:44I was meant to call him back earlier.
07:45Well, is there an issue with the tenant?
07:47Um, I'm not sure.
07:49Um, I guess I'll do that before going to help Kara.
07:53Ah, someone's in suck-up mode.
07:58Can't a mum treat her family?
08:02While also sucking up.
08:05So, you know my cropped bomber jacket?
08:07The one I thought I lost?
08:12Yeah, it's in the back of the car.
08:14Mum, you naughty girl.
08:16I'm not a naughty girl.
08:18Yeah, it's in the back of the car.
08:20Mum, you naughty girl.
08:23Ooh, yum.
08:25How's the head doing this morning?
08:27Oh, yeah, it's great.
08:29Where's that family photo that's usually in the shelf?
08:32Yeah, matter of fact, where are all the family photos?
08:35You know, maybe one of those idiots took them.
08:38Oh, no, no, I put them away so they wouldn't get damaged.
08:43Oh, wow, you really were planning a blowout.
08:48No, I, I just wanted to protect our things.
08:54Well, you know, actually I might, I might just go in outside.
08:58Yeah, good call.
09:18I heard there were over a hundred people.
09:21Oh, no, there was just a few of Mum's uni mates and things got a bit hectic.
09:25Wait, it was Wendy's party?
09:28Hmm, well, Wendy is having that full university experience.
09:31You know what? Good for her.
09:33I kind of agree.
09:35Although seeing her out there dressed in my clothes was a lot.
09:37Sorry, she was wearing your clothes?
09:40It took her a while to find her crew at uni.
09:42Yeah, I know.
09:43Sorry, she was wearing your clothes?
09:45It took her a while to find her crew at uni.
09:47And she decided blending in would be better.
09:49Wait, so Wendy's a top secret party animal?
09:52She is putting us all to shame.
09:55Okay, and how is Andrew about it?
09:57Dad just wants her to be happy.
09:59Pretending to be twenty-something is a little much.
10:01But she wasn't trying to upset anybody.
10:03Is she relieved now that it's all out in the open?
10:07I hope so. I mean, she spilled all her secrets and there's nothing more to tell.
10:10So, the only thing she has now is a really bad hangover.
10:21Rhett!
10:23Thanks for coming.
10:25Why isn't this place open?
10:27I'm afraid the tenant just handed in their keys.
10:30What? I thought you were going to offer another room reduction.
10:33Well, they passed on their appreciation.
10:35Unfortunately, the business just isn't viable.
10:37I take it you haven't been down here for a while?
10:40No.
10:42Well, I'm glad you're seeing it with your own eyes.
10:44The place is a mess.
10:46They've only been open half days for the last month.
10:48They should have been putting more effort into running this place.
10:52The issue is the competition.
10:54All the big garden centres that have opened in the area.
10:56Okay, sure. Fine, whatever.
10:58Just get me a new tenant then.
11:00Yeah, I've been anticipating this.
11:03You have to be careful.
11:05The appetite just isn't there.
11:07What are you talking about?
11:09This is prime real estate.
11:11I agree.
11:13When I say the appetite isn't there, it's about the business itself.
11:16I could rent the space tomorrow.
11:18I could double the rent.
11:21If I let another business come in.
11:23So, if I close Sonia's nursery.
11:35Wow.
11:37Nothing kills a hangover quite like applying for a GATS for mentorship.
11:42You really are full of surprises.
11:48Look, I'm sorry I didn't tell you about Andrew and Sadie.
11:53I never planned on manipulating anyone.
11:56It's just you guys assumed and I...
11:59I kind of just ran with it.
12:01Why? I don't get that.
12:04I mean...
12:10I've just been really alone here.
12:12And then suddenly I've got friends and I panicked.
12:15I mean, who wants to hang out with a middle-aged mum?
12:23This is the real me.
12:25Ta-da!
12:29Well, the real you might dress a bit different, but you're still Wendy.
12:34You know that, right?
12:39Oh, as a friend.
12:41Obviously.
12:43You know, like the other stuff I said at the party.
12:45No, you were just acting based on the information you had.
12:49You mean embarrassing myself?
12:51No, not at all.
12:54And for the record, I'm flattered.
12:57We're very married.
12:59Hey, given I suggested all those shots,
13:02you reckon I owe you a coffee to help you get through the morning?
13:05You definitely do.
13:07I'll have a latte.
13:09Skinny?
13:11Thank you.
13:21I love how graphic Mr Moon is.
13:23You've named him?
13:25Not me. That's his fisherman.
13:26How do you not know that?
13:28Anyway, I'm going to go suss out rides.
13:38Any word from your mums?
13:40No, no, but not stressing it.
13:43Yeah, sure.
13:45You're just hovering like a silent weirdo
13:47because you're feeling on top of the world.
13:51Let's do the laughing clowns.
13:53That purple bunny is mine.
13:56Yeah? Okay.
13:59Hey, can I please have a go?
14:05Damn, I thought if we went on the roller coaster
14:08we'd get to sit closer together.
14:12What do I do now?
14:15You get to win the purple bunny.
14:18Go.
14:20Nice.
14:24Come on.
14:37So close.
14:40Same.
14:42Come on, come on.
14:46You're going to need one more shot
14:48and you're going to have to get the tummy right.
14:51Yes!
14:53I got it.
14:58I knew it.
15:06There used to be a community garden
15:08and Sonia volunteered here.
15:10That was before the council decided
15:12that they wanted to close this.
15:14She sounds like an amazing person.
15:16Yeah, yeah, she was.
15:19She came up with the idea for the nursery.
15:21She was all about nature and the environment.
15:25She was over the moon the day we bought this land.
15:27It's hard, going up against the big chains.
15:30Yeah, Sonia fought those battles too.
15:33I mean, the fact that it's lasted as long as it has
15:35is something to be proud of.
15:39If you don't mind my asking,
15:41did you not see it coming?
15:45Oh, I guess I did, on some level.
15:48It's probably a good thing.
15:50It's probably a big clue
15:52having to drop the rent so many times, right?
15:54Well, obviously I'll do whatever you want.
15:56No, no, no, I get it.
15:58I need to be realistic
16:00and I have to have a chat with our daughter.
16:02Of course.
16:04And our son, he lives in the States
16:06so it's going to take me a minute to get back to you.
16:08Yeah, take all the time you need.
16:20Hi.
16:31Our brother's so sweet.
16:33Yeah, isn't he?
16:35Oh, that's Ma, okay.
16:38Well, how's it?
16:43Okay, put me out of my misery now, please.
16:45Well, Mum's here too.
16:47Do you want to tell him?
16:48Lana's approved it.
16:50You're going back to Erinsborough, hi!
16:52Wait, seriously?
16:54Yes, seriously.
16:56Yes, yes! I'm going back, I'm going back, I'm going back.
16:58We'll have a special dinner tonight, okay?
17:00We're really proud of you, mate.
17:02Thank you, thank you so much, Ma.
17:04Bye.
17:06They said yes, he's going back to school.
17:08Oh, that's awesome.
17:10Well, I guess we need to celebrate.
17:12Totally.
17:14And is there a wrong way we should do that?
17:16Ghost train.
17:18What, are you scared?
17:20No, I'm not scared.
17:22It's just really lame, that's all.
17:24Oh, don't worry.
17:26I'll hold your hand if it gets too much.
17:37Well, when does he start?
17:39Oh, as soon as possible.
17:41I'm just about to meet Curtis to organise all the details.
17:43Oh, it's wonderful news.
17:45Jane will be thrilled too.
17:46We're so grateful for the support of everyone here,
17:48so just thank you so, so much.
17:50I'd better go.
17:52Thank you.
17:54We'll see you soon.
17:56Brilliant.
17:58I'd better not be late for Moira's check-up.
18:00Did she have a check-up yesterday?
18:02Yes, she claims she's got an increased heart rate
18:04after Harold won the election over her.
18:06Isn't that funny?
18:08Because Hilary's complaints have also doubled since then.
18:10Tell you what, how about I refer these to Harold?
18:13You know, I think he's quite enjoying
18:15pulling rank with these ladies.
18:19Psst, psst.
18:21How was it having the house to yourself last night?
18:23Oh, it was a complete flop.
18:26Melanie dragged us off to the movies.
18:28What?
18:30The girl would have jumped at the chance.
18:32How did I?
18:34He didn't pick up on any of my hints.
18:36He was too busy talking about the residence.
18:38You're being work-zoned.
18:40I've been what?
18:42Don't worry, don't worry, it's fine.
18:44Paul and I managed to find a balance somehow,
18:46but it'll be fine.
18:48Why do?
18:50No, and his boyfriend didn't know they were on a break.
18:54Not until he saw them agreeing at the party.
19:01Andrew!
19:03I'll, um, I'll catch you later.
19:06What are you doing here?
19:07Look, I, I know that uni has been an adjustment,
19:11and I'm just in awe of your ability to adapt under pressure,
19:17even though you don't look a day over 30.
19:21These are gorgeous,
19:23but I hardly deserve them after yesterday.
19:26No, you always deserve flowers.
19:29Watch out.
19:31Someone might think I'm being hit on by an older creepy guy.
19:34Interesting, well I think that's just a burden I have to bear.
19:40I really want you to enjoy this place.
19:44Try everything.
19:47I just don't want you to feel like you have to hide it all from me.
19:52Well, in that case, I should let you know that I'm
19:57definitely past my house party phase.
20:00Definitely past my house party phase.
20:03Maybe.
20:12And I promise,
20:16no more secrets.
20:20So, new vertical garden will go there.
20:23New planter boxes will go there.
20:25Ah, what about the barbecue? You gonna move that?
20:28Nah, I like it against the back wall.
20:31Cool.
20:35Sorry, my mind is wandering.
20:38That's cool, I get it. You're worried about the kids at Luna Park, yeah?
20:41Oh nah, I wasn't thinking about the kids.
20:43I was just saying to Remy the other day I feel like this space is just missing something.
20:47Such as?
20:49I don't know, something with character?
20:51I'm not sure, what, like an old ladder or some tools?
20:55Something a bit vintage?
20:57Well, if you're into upcycling, I might have something for you.
21:01Yeah?
21:02Yeah, give me an hour. I'll be back.
21:05Okay.
21:15That prize thing was perfect.
21:18You saw the way she hugged me? That is not how friends hug.
21:22I think she's really into me.
21:23I think she's really into me.
21:25I have to tell her I like her.
21:28Tell her what you want.
21:30What's that supposed to mean?
21:32How would you do it?
21:34It's not about me.
21:36No, but you said you'd help.
21:39No, no, I did not promise anything.
21:42You made me be here to be your stupid wingman.
21:44I thought you were supposed to be happy.
21:46You're back in school, you have everything you want.
21:49Seriously, I need your help. I have no idea what I'm doing.
21:53Well, maybe you should just figure it out for yourself.
21:55I can't. You know I can't.
21:57Yeah, well, that's tough.
21:59Why are you doing this? I really like you.
22:02Then hook up with her.
22:04Do what you want, just do it without me.
22:07Why?
22:08Because I like Nell too.
22:09Coming up on Neighbours.
22:11Just all of these reminders about my past.
22:13They just, they keep coming back.
22:15I don't know what to do about that.
22:17Has all this advice you've been giving me been bad on purpose?
22:20Was.
22:22If Remy was pretending to be single, I would have lost him.
22:25Single.
