00:00Previously on Neighbours.
00:02A job offer from McGovern and Armstrong.
00:04Toadie has been so good to me.
00:06He can't expect you to work for him forever.
00:09I don't want to leave.
00:10That look that you and Nick gave each other.
00:12It was a good day, that's all.
00:13I'll think of ways to recoup the losses.
00:15Nick and Kerry are working on a pitch for the vineyard.
00:17We could use Lassiter's as accommodation for the guests.
00:20You're the investor.
00:21He's had to cancel your meeting.
00:22What did you just do?
00:23Are we talking about the trial partnership?
00:25The answer's yes.
00:26You lied to Breen and we've both been keeping it from you.
00:31Neighbours
00:33Everybody needs good neighbours
00:37With a little understanding
00:42You can find the perfect blend
00:48Neighbours
00:51Should be there for one another
00:55That's when good neighbours
00:59Should be there for one another
01:15Oi, don't go top shelf.
01:17You have to say please and be nice to me on my first official day.
01:21Hey, do you remember when Mum got us that toy kitchen
01:24where we used to pretend to be restaurant owners?
01:26Yeah, you used to boss me around back then too.
01:28Yeah, that's because someone had to be the waiter
01:30and I'm better up front of house.
01:31You were ten.
01:33But can you believe that we're partners in a real restaurant?
01:36Yes, yes.
01:37It is still sinking in.
01:40Hey, I was thinking about more potential ways
01:43of getting people through the doors here.
01:45Yeah, what were you thinking?
01:47Get this, like regular theme nights.
01:49Oh, I like that.
01:50Like dinner and trivia.
01:52Or like one of those murder mystery parties
01:55but we could do it through the vines.
01:56And I could do that?
01:57No, you can't do any bad Sherlock Holmes impersonations.
02:01That's not quite elementary, my dear Nicolette.
02:05I know what heaven would bring.
02:08Are you going to admit it or keep lying?
02:10Look, I know what I did was bad,
02:12but you said it yourself, it's worked out for the best, right?
02:14That's irrelevant, it's about trust.
02:16Give me one good reason why I should go into business with you.
02:23Hey.
02:25Hey.
02:26What can I get you?
02:27Ah, just a green tea today.
02:29Jasmine, have you got it?
02:30Sure, coming right up.
02:34So how are you travelling with Logan gone?
02:37Seems like the dust settled.
02:39I'm fine.
02:40I'm great, actually.
02:41Keeping busy seems to be doing the trick.
02:44Bad news?
02:46No, I was just planning my day.
02:49I thought you might have missed out on the tour contract.
02:51No, we're still waiting to hear.
02:53Well, let me know when you do.
02:56Is there an update on when I get my office?
02:58Yes, we've got guests checking out this morning.
03:00Great.
03:02I need to print out some documents.
03:03Where can I do that?
03:04We've got a printer at reception.
03:06Feel free to use that.
03:15Is that who I think it is?
03:17No.
03:23I know it was a stupid thing to do, and I regretted it right away.
03:25You still went behind my back.
03:27Because I wanted this partnership so badly.
03:29Hey, we can still make this work.
03:31We were just about to sign the papers, right?
03:33Sorry, when exactly did you find out?
03:35Only after the fact.
03:37That's true, okay? Nick had nothing to do with it.
03:39The only person at fault here is me.
03:41Then you're the one I can't work with.
03:42Did Krista even tell you that I tried to undo it?
03:45I mean, Leo, please, surely that counts for something.
03:47If you cross me once, you can cross me again.
03:49Get your things and go. We're done.
03:53Okay.
04:11We are going to be so very late.
04:13Well, if only we could pull rank on our bosses.
04:19Okay, I can't leave season nine.
04:21Fair enough.
04:22Yeah, I probably shouldn't leave Mac either.
04:24Right.
04:27What was the attitude Haz was giving you last night?
04:30Do you think he was giving me attitude?
04:32Yeah, a little bit.
04:34Well, he's got a point.
04:36The office hasn't been my priority.
04:38Yeah, I'm sure Mac loves her autonomy.
04:41Yeah, I think so.
04:43I hope so.
04:45Got him.
04:48What is it?
04:52Oh.
04:57Come on, ditch the boyfriends.
04:59Show some love to a single girl and come out tonight.
05:02Haven't you gone out like every night this week already?
05:05No, I didn't go out last night.
05:07Or Monday.
05:09Wait, was that Tuesday?
05:11Okay, who have you been going out with?
05:13You know, the girls from housekeeping and the guys from security.
05:17Oh, yeah.
05:18Yeah, and this cute guy that I saw coming out of Greasemonkey.
05:23Okay, maybe, have you been hitting it a bit too hard?
05:27I'm having fun.
05:28I know, but it wasn't that long ago you were in hospital.
05:32Yeah, and the whole Bowman thing made me realise
05:35that I need to be living my life to the fullest.
05:38Is that what you're doing?
05:40If it is, it's cool. We're just asking, right?
05:43Is that a yes or a no for tonight?
05:46Can I have a word?
05:47Yeah.
05:48I have to go to work.
05:50Class.
05:53Um, is everything alright?
05:56Well, that's my question to you.
05:58I got a message from McGovern and Armstrong.
06:01It was a reference check.
06:09Morning.
06:11Morning.
06:17Is there something you need?
06:23It's just...
06:25You should probably know that Byron's got a new girlfriend.
06:28How's that any of my concern?
06:30Well, in case Rhys is planning on flying back anytime soon,
06:34he might need a heads-up.
06:36Like, is Rhys seeing anyone new?
06:37Holly.
06:38Well, I'm on both of their sides.
06:39I mean, me and Rhys were kind of friends by the time she left.
06:41We had this whole connection over Krysta.
06:43I don't have time for gossip.
06:45Nor should you.
06:47Okay.
06:53Oh, um...
06:54Tess?
06:59Give me that.
07:02I was just checking that it's your...
07:03If you see anything with my name on it, consider it confidential.
07:09Please.
07:11Let me know when a room is available.
07:18The point is, I don't really know why they called you.
07:21Well, I'm glad they did.
07:23Toadie, I told them no.
07:25They probably just didn't pass it on to their HR.
07:27There's some part of you that actually wants to take that job, though, isn't there?
07:35Oh.
07:36Is this why Haz was prickly with me last night?
07:38Does he want you to take the job?
07:40He wants me to be happy.
07:43I was really flattered by their offer.
07:45I mean, it's a dream job.
07:47But, Toadie, you've been so good to me.
07:49I can't leave you.
07:52Are you happy at Rebecca Moore?
07:58Um...
07:59After being in court this week...
08:02No.
08:04We rarely get those kinds of cases, and that is totally fine.
08:07You don't need to chase them.
08:09You've earned the right to take it easy.
08:11Take...
08:12Take it easy?
08:13Um...
08:14No.
08:15Uh, no, no, I didn't mean...
08:17I mean, it's your firm,
08:19and you should do what you want to do.
08:23Yeah.
08:25Nah, um...
08:27I'm really sorry.
08:29You're right.
08:30I have been taking it easy,
08:32and, uh, that's not fair on you at all.
08:36Some professional development would be good.
08:39Well, if that's what you want,
08:42then that is what you'll get,
08:44if you want to stay.
08:47I do.
08:49Good.
08:51Whatever your ambitions are,
08:53let's chase them together.
08:55Yeah?
08:56It's going to be good for me, too.
08:58Yes.
09:00Thank you.
09:04I am going to see you in the office.
09:06I am going to see you in the office.
09:08Okay, see you there.
09:11Okay, so I'm guessing you talked about the job offer?
09:14Yeah, we talked it over.
09:15Yeah, and?
09:16It's going to be good.
09:21Must be Groundhog Day.
09:24How many times has this partnership gone pear-shaped?
09:28Hey, Leo said you were on your way back.
09:31You promised you wouldn't say anything.
09:33Uh, next time.
09:34Now, we were up until midnight last night
09:36working on that presentation,
09:37and we even cut you in on it.
09:38Yeah, I know.
09:40Look, I'm sorry, I just...
09:42I couldn't lie to Leo.
09:45Kerry.
09:50Byron.
09:51Yeah, I know, I get it.
09:53You've still got your job at the hotel,
09:55if you want it.
10:05So she just gets to drop a bomb
10:07and then swan on out like nothing's happened?
10:09Annette, just stop, please.
10:13This one's all on me.
10:15Leo knows he had nothing to do with it.
10:18Hey, no.
10:20Byron, we're a package deal.
10:23Physically and financially.
10:25Besides, did you see Kerry's face?
10:28I think I've lost any chance of making things right with her.
10:35She was being so secretive.
10:38Look, are you sure you weren't just being nosy?
10:40No, she totally snapped at me.
10:43Holly, that's why we have to stay out of her way.
10:45Krista, aren't you a little bit curious
10:47about what she was printing?
10:48No, look, she's obviously here to check in on us.
10:51Okay, we can't give her any reason
10:52to think that there's a problem.
10:54Okay, I'm just trying to get the tea.
10:57No, I need you to focus, okay?
10:59And stop partying.
11:01Well, now you sound like Mackenzie.
11:02It's affecting your work.
11:04Look, I know that we're friends, but you need to rein it in.
11:12Larry.
11:20Look, I'm really sorry I stuffed things up.
11:24Look, maybe the partnership's just not meant to be.
11:27There's no reason for Leo to give Nick the boot.
11:29She should still be able to invest her share.
11:32And please, don't get mad at her.
11:34She's worried this might set you guys back.
11:36I don't want it to.
11:40Hey, can I ask you something?
11:43What do you want from her?
11:47It's just that you guys were getting along so well.
11:51Yeah, it's been really great.
11:56She'd get back together with you in a heartbeat.
11:59That's if you feel the same.
12:03You know, if there's one good thing that can come out of this partnership trial,
12:08it might be worth exploring.
12:20Hey.
12:21Hey.
12:26Are we okay?
12:28You rushed off when I told you about Byron earlier.
12:33Yeah, we're okay.
12:36Even though it took me so long to tell you?
12:39Yeah, I don't want to be mad at you.
12:42Are you just saying that because I've been so wobbly lately?
12:44I'm saying it because I love you.
12:47And I know Byron would have pressured you to get quiet like that.
12:53What are you going to do about the vineyard?
12:56Well, Curry and Nicholas seem to be getting on all right.
12:59And we're all on the same wavelength.
13:01So...
13:02Yeah, it seemed that way after the pitch.
13:08We got the deal.
13:09The vineyard and the hotel.
13:12Yay.
13:14Thank you for letting me be a part of that.
13:20Do you think you could see a way to giving Byron a second chance?
13:25If he's prepared to shaft me like he did,
13:28how can I possibly do that?
13:32TESS
13:35Tess?
13:37You're thinking, do I know her?
13:40You do, but from a very long time ago.
13:43Melanie.
13:44We only met the once.
13:46Krista's mum was moving out of Conrad's house in London.
13:50I remember.
13:51You flew over to make sure she didn't steal the artwork,
13:53and I made you a cup of tea.
13:54A lot's happened since then.
13:57Just know that you don't need to worry about Krista.
14:00She's doing a fantastic job at the hotel.
14:02That's quite the endorsement.
14:05Didn't she extort money off of you?
14:07Yeah, well, let's say I've seen her at her worst,
14:10she's seen me at mine.
14:13Contrary to what Krista might think,
14:14I'm here to check on the hotel, not her.
14:16I know that my word probably doesn't mean a thing,
14:19but she's changed.
14:22I just wanted you to know.
14:30Polly just contacted me for an answer.
14:32I have the same issue.
14:34She asked you out too.
14:36Well, you can use me as an excuse.
14:38Believe me, I am.
14:40Are you worried about her?
14:42I don't know.
14:43I mean, she says that she's fine,
14:44but I don't think I could bounce back that quickly
14:47if I had just been kidnapped.
14:51I got your message about the pitch.
14:53Congratulations.
14:54Thank you.
14:55I feel like I can breathe again.
14:57Breathe.
14:58And then we'll celebrate.
14:59Your father and I would have a steak dinner
15:01whenever we landed a big contract.
15:05Maybe we could keep that tradition alive.
15:09Yeah, I'd like that.
15:11May I sit?
15:12Yeah.
15:19Krista,
15:21I can see how hard you've worked to turn your life around.
15:25Your father would be proud.
15:27Did he ever say nice things about me?
15:30Or was it all bad?
15:33He spent a lot of time worrying about you.
15:37But he loved you.
15:40Conrad had pictures of all his children on his desk.
15:44Yours was the closest to him.
15:49That's nice to know.
15:53What about Reese?
15:54What about Reese?
15:55What does she say about me?
15:58Reese is focused on the business.
16:00She just wants you to succeed.
16:04I want you to succeed too.
16:07I promise you that I'm committed to the hotel.
16:10And my recovery.
16:11You don't have to be intimidated by me.
16:14As long as you hit your targets,
16:16I've got your back.
16:17I've got your back.
16:24Here you go.
16:25Thank you.
16:26Enjoy.
16:30Hello stranger.
16:31Hello yourself.
16:33Is it me or have we not seen each other for a few weeks?
16:36Yeah, for two people who used to bump into each other awkwardly all the time.
16:40Yeah, it's quite a record.
16:42What can I get you?
16:44I'm thinking something to go with my mood.
16:47I'm feeling motivated and energized.
16:49Oh, I know just the thing.
16:51Hello.
16:54So what has got you motivated and energized?
16:58Well, I've realized that I've been drifting.
17:01Professionally, that is.
17:03And now that I'm back, I'm going to turn it around.
17:08I came home from my road trip feeling the same way.
17:12Professionally and personally in my case.
17:15Alright, how's it working out for you?
17:17Well, apart from a brief detour with an unsavoury character named Logan.
17:21Yeah, I heard about that.
17:23I am back on track.
17:25And I just love that there's no awkwardness between us anymore.
17:30Yeah, same here.
17:32I also rid away something else while I was away.
17:35While I was parked up on the Grampians one day.
17:38Yeah, what's that?
17:40You and I were never meant to be.
17:46Oh, okay, I got it.
17:48I got it. Can you take her out for me?
17:51Lucky, Miss Sparkles floats.
17:55Hi.
17:57What are you guys doing here?
17:59Isla changed her mind about the beach.
18:01So we decided to go to Dada's favourite pool, didn't we?
18:04I'm sorry if we surprised you.
18:06Byron said no one would be home.
18:07Oh, no, it's all good.
18:09Hey, there are some donuts on the table.
18:11Miss Sparkles wants an after swim treat.
18:13Oh, lucky.
18:15Yeah.
18:19Um, thanks for being so nice.
18:22No, she's cute.
18:24I meant me.
18:26You must think I'm just as bad as Byron.
18:29I know you had nothing to do with it.
18:31You told me.
18:32We just really want the partnership to happen.
18:39Really enjoyed these last few days with you.
18:43Yeah, me too.
18:49If that's how you feel,
18:50do you think that you could give us another chance?
18:59You hit me one day like a bolt from the blue.
19:03You don't have to tell me this.
19:05I want to.
19:06Maybe it's the last step in me truly moving on.
19:12As long as it's all right with you.
19:15Yeah.
19:18We rushed into our marriage.
19:21Did we?
19:23You think about it.
19:24From the moment we got engaged
19:25to the balloon exploding in the street,
19:27what was it, a month, tops?
19:29Well, I mean, that was more to do with Callum's availability.
19:33Plus, I was feeling super insecure
19:35about your friendship with Amy.
19:38But it all happened super fast.
19:42We were happy, weren't we?
19:47Absolutely.
19:49And it was the Krista and Eden stuff that made me run away.
19:54What I'm saying is that we're different people
19:58at different stages of our lives,
20:00and if it hadn't have been that,
20:01it would have been something else eventually.
20:06Really?
20:08I hope I'm not upsetting you by saying this.
20:11I really love that you and I are friends now.
20:15But maybe that's all we were ever supposed to be
20:19in the long run.
20:22Yeah.
20:23No, no, no, you're not upsetting me.
20:25I love that we're friends, too.
20:29Hmm.
20:40Hello, sorry to keep you waiting.
20:42What can I get for you?
20:52This was the hardest part about breaking up.
20:55It wasn't just leaving you,
20:56it was leaving your family and Isla.
21:01She's pretty addictive, isn't she?
21:07Is there anyone else up north?
21:11A few one-night stands, nothing serious.
21:15What about you?
21:17Yeah, yeah, I went on a few dates.
21:19I always started something with Hudson's sister.
21:22Oh.
21:24But most of the dates I went on,
21:26I'd always find some fault or excuse to not go back.
21:32I think the main fault was that they weren't you.
21:42What's happening here?
21:54Oh.
22:03Coming up on Neighbours.
22:05We're going for drinks after class today.
22:07You guys should join.
22:09I'm game if you are.
22:11All right, why are you both acting so weird?
22:14So you guys should get back together.
22:16Nick and I need to figure this out by ourselves.
22:18What are you thinking?
22:23I don't know.
