00:00Previously on Neighbours.
00:02I'm going through some stuff.
00:03Can we just keep this between ourselves?
00:05A party?
00:06Our anniversary is worth celebrating, you know.
00:08Maybe she really is on my side.
00:10We should be able to triple our target.
00:12Your friends are worried about you.
00:14So this is an intervention.
00:16Is that an invitation?
00:17Up then.
00:18What's going on?
00:19I'm just having one of those days, I think.
00:21It's just one of the reasons I love you.
00:22Yeah, hey Logan.
00:23I really need to talk to someone about this
00:25B situation.
00:27Aaron?
00:28What the hell is going on?
00:30Neighbours
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
00:59Become good friends
01:14Why are you contacting Logan?
01:16And why are you talking about Hep B?
01:18Is it because he was a doctor?
01:20Because I used to be a nurse and I'm right here
01:22and I'm not a stalking lunatic.
01:24It's no big deal, Nick.
01:25It's just some unfinished business.
01:27No, I need answers. Try again.
01:29Nick, did you want to go for a walk?
01:31No, I'm not letting this go.
01:32I have a really bad feeling here.
01:34I don't like where my mind's taking me.
01:35Please, just...
01:36Based on recent history, there's only really one thing that makes sense.
01:39Can you just leave it?
01:40It's drugs, isn't it?
01:45Logan has been exposed to Hep B
01:47and he needed to tell me because we slept together.
01:53Morning!
01:54Out for a stroll?
01:55Oh, we just picked up some pastries.
01:57Oh, scrummy. Enjoy.
01:59Melanie, I'm sure you saw the invitation that we dropped off in the letterbox.
02:06I did, yeah.
02:07I just wanted you...
02:08Well, we want you to know that it's not just for the Kennedys.
02:12But we understand that if you're unable to attend, that's fine.
02:15But if you can come, you're more than welcome.
02:18I wish I could,
02:20but Sharon Davis is having a housewarming party on the very same day
02:24and she asked if I would help her set up, so...
02:28That's a real shame.
02:30See ya.
02:31Bye.
02:35I mean, that was always going to be awkward.
02:38I mean, I guess we've got it over and done with.
02:41Yeah.
02:42I'll see you later.
02:44Bye.
02:48Would you have even told me if I hadn't caught you out?
02:54I kept quiet because I was in my head about sleeping with him.
02:58I just figured that if I said it out loud, it would make it real.
03:01Well, you might have hepatitis B, Aaron. That's pretty real.
03:04I know. I should never have gone there.
03:06I'm not even remotely ready to be sleeping with anyone other than David.
03:10Nick, I am ashamed about this.
03:12It's okay, Aaron.
03:13No, no, it's not okay.
03:14And I don't care if you're ashamed about it because we co-parent a child.
03:19So if you're at risk of a chronic disease, I need to know about that.
03:22This is about me. This is not about you.
03:24No, this is your problem ever since David died.
03:27And I try to be patient with you.
03:29I try to understand.
03:30But you just, you just keep getting it wrong.
03:33Maybe we should go for that walk now.
03:34Yeah.
03:35Yeah, good idea.
03:36Because I can't actually look at him anymore.
03:52Wow, this place is epic.
04:04I thought I might never see it again after letting you drive.
04:07Hey, I've driven some wild roads in some wild countries.
04:10You're in safe hands.
04:16I could fit my entire house in this room.
04:22And you live here on your own?
04:26Yeah, my house sharing days are long gone.
04:29I like my privacy.
04:32I like your privacy too.
04:35I think it might come in handy.
04:38Can I get you a drink?
04:40You seem like a margarita girl to me.
04:43Good guess.
04:47But I'm not really thirsty for a cocktail.
04:50Shouldn't have bothered getting changed.
04:59I knew you were a bad girl.
05:03You have no idea.
05:06Maybe I shouldn't have told you about Holly.
05:08Oh, no, I'm glad you did.
05:10Susan and I have evidently had the blinkers on.
05:12Well, I will go check on her later if she's still talking to me.
05:17Okay, see you.
05:18See you.
05:19Good luck with the meeting.
05:22Oh, it sounds like Holly is struggling more than what she's letting on.
05:26Yeah, it's certainly been a wake-up call for us.
05:28Oh, you don't need to worry about me at all.
05:30You just focus all of your energy on her.
05:34Oh, um, received your invite.
05:37Be there or be square.
05:38Yeah, yeah.
05:39I'll always support you, Toad.
05:41I can't help questioning the timing.
05:44Can't change the date of our anniversary, Carl.
05:46No, no, no, no.
05:47I mean the fact you're having the party at all.
05:50Can you not make an issue of this?
05:52Well, how could I not, given everything you've told me?
05:54Right now, I wish I hadn't told you anything.
05:57I suggested to Holly she should consider getting some counselling.
06:00I think you should consider the same thing.
06:02I've already done counselling.
06:04Will you at least think about it?
06:06Sure.
06:17Cheers.
06:30Look, I know you're mad, but you only just told him you'd always be there for him.
06:34There are limits.
06:36Hey, I get that you feel let down, but Aaron was suffering in silence.
06:41He didn't have anyone to talk to about this, and then when he told you-
06:44Yeah, I didn't make it easy.
06:48But I was just thinking about Isla, about our family.
06:51Like, this impacts us as well.
06:53No, I get it.
06:54But his whole world has been turned upside down.
06:57He doesn't know how to live in it right now.
07:00Yeah, he needs your help.
07:08This is so big.
07:11Biggest bedroom I've ever been in.
07:15Your house is a dream.
07:20Your car is a beast.
07:21You've got the total package.
07:23Yeah, well, my motto is go big or go home.
07:27To a really, really big home.
07:31I don't have a motto, but I might steal yours.
07:34Just based on results.
07:40Okay, real talk.
07:45I famously have horrible, horrible taste in men.
07:50Rude.
07:51Yeah, rude.
07:53Mean.
07:54Dishonest.
07:55Criminal.
07:56It's not really a great track record.
07:59So I'm guessing that you're either married, or a con man, or a married con man.
08:09I am one of those things.
08:14A man.
08:21Honestly, I'm just your average nice guy with above average looks, charm, funds, material possessions.
08:34That would make you a unicorn.
08:36If I had a horn, I feel like you would have seen it by now.
08:44I'm not perfect.
08:48But I'm not taking you for a ride, either.
08:54Unless you want me to.
09:02Oh, it was such a good time.
09:05Oh, it was such a lovely surprise getting this in the letterbox this morning.
09:09I know, isn't it sweet?
09:11Toadie and Hugo must have gone to so much trouble. I brought it with me so I didn't have to look at it all day.
09:14Yeah, Toadie's always had a sentimental side.
09:20Well, it's a Rebecca house.
09:22What, would you rather move it somewhere else?
09:24No, it's not that.
09:27What if it was just the Rebecca house?
09:31Are you thinking of changing your name?
09:32I don't know, the question did come up when I married Paul, but I wasn't ready then.
09:38And, um, I don't know, I just kept Willis because of the kids, I guess.
09:43Oh, they're much older now.
09:45But if I got married today, I'd keep my maiden name, but Petrini's just seen so long ago.
09:50What do you think?
09:52Oh, well, I think it's a lovely thought.
09:55It would certainly align you with Helen and Hugo.
09:58And now I've got my hitch name.
10:00I don't know.
10:02It's just a thought.
10:05Hey, oh, thanks for the coffee.
10:06No worries.
10:08You look happy.
10:09Yeah.
10:11Someone whose day started with an ambush.
10:13Mac did message me.
10:15It was so mortifying.
10:17Mac, Haz, Krista, Melanie, they all said something to Dad.
10:20I did think it was quite a dicier place, to be honest.
10:23Yeah, thanks, I knew you'd be on my side.
10:26Didn't you go to work this morning?
10:29Um, no, I told Krista that I was too upset to come in.
10:34Well, you need to work on this, because it's not giving up set whatsoever.
10:39I might have found a distraction.
10:43You found a guy?
10:44Shush, keep your voice down.
10:47Holly, how does someone pick up first thing in the morning?
10:49Actually, he picked me up, and that's all I'm going to say.
10:54Don't say anything to Mac.
10:56Hey.
10:57Um, so before you put me on blast, I'm sorry that we talked to Carl.
11:01I'm just really worried about you.
11:03I forgive you.
11:04You do?
11:05Yeah, I went for a walk and I cooled off and I feel better now.
11:09Oh, um, so we're good?
11:13We're good.
11:14Okay, cool.
11:16Um, I have to head back into work, but I love you.
11:20Yeah.
11:21Okay, cool.
11:23See ya.
11:24See ya.
11:29Okay, from now on, you're the only person I'm telling anything to.
11:42Hello, can I help you?
11:44I said I needed some convincing.
11:46You've come to the right place.
11:47Excellent. I'm looking at a property. The only thing is, it's in Hawaii.
11:52Don't jab, Rebecca.
11:53He's Silverson.
11:59Just take care of Warawee, then we'll talk.
12:03Thanks for the ride.
12:06So to be clear, when I get to Warawee, am I going to put on my nice guy face or my don't mess with me face?
12:12Just get the job done face. Is that going to be a problem?
12:16Not at all. This job's easy done.
12:18I suppose we can discuss a more, um, long term arrangement.
12:23I reckon that could be useful for you.
12:26Just take care of Warawee, then we can talk.
12:29Safe flight.
12:44What were you doing at Rebecca Law?
12:47Nothing. Had to go with Justin.
12:48Fine.
12:49Thought I'd get back a bit early.
12:51What were you doing?
12:54Alright.
12:56I knew you'd say no, but I got a message back from the broker in Honolulu.
13:00Please don't tell me you did.
13:01They're about to accept another offer. I still got a good deal.
13:06Do you know who Toady Rebecca is?
13:08Some stupid lawyer with a funny name.
13:11He's married to Therese Willis, who used to be married to Paul Robinson.
13:15So?
13:16Everybody knows everybody here, and nobody knows how to keep their mouths shut.
13:21See, I thought I was doing something nice.
13:23Cancel the deal.
13:25Next time your something nice is bigger than a box of chocolates, don't do it.
13:32I don't know how to explain it. I just...
13:35I formed an unhealthy bond with Logan, and I made a mistake. I'm so sorry.
13:42I feel like I've cheated on David. I just hate myself.
13:47No, no. You're being way too hard on yourself.
13:50Yeah, you actually remind me of someone I know.
13:53He's surely a good guy.
13:55You're being way too hard on yourself.
13:58Yeah, you actually remind me of someone I know.
14:01He's short, smart, terrible at jokes. We were born at the same time, actually.
14:07When we were kids, David always used to say, I hate myself.
14:12I've done everything wrong. I'm the worst human.
14:15But he wasn't.
14:18No, he was the best.
14:19Yeah, but he was only human. Just making decisions and doing human things like we all do.
14:26And sometimes I had to remind him of that.
14:30You shouldn't be mad at yourself for seeking connection, Aaron. It's only human.
14:37Still doesn't change the way I feel about it.
14:40Look, I know it's not nice being the ones left behind.
14:43But I know David would be so proud of how you're coping with everything.
14:49I know.
15:15Hey. Hey.
15:19I'm sorry. I panicked and I didn't even think about how terrified you must be.
15:24Yeah, well, pretty terrified.
15:27Not just what it might mean for me, but what it might mean for Isla.
15:31I just don't want her losing another dad.
15:34Same. And I don't want to lose you either.
15:39I'm sorry, Nick. I put you in a terrible position and I understand why you were angry.
15:45About Logan? There were just so many red flags. He's not a safe person to have around Isla.
15:53You know when I said I was ashamed?
15:58I'm ashamed not because of the hippie, but because I betrayed David.
16:02You didn't betray him.
16:03I did.
16:04You can be with whoever you want. Just be wise about it. For your sake and for ours.
16:09Aaron.
16:10Aaron.
16:14The results are in. Should we head to a treatment room?
16:16No, just tell me.
16:18Oh, I don't think it's a good idea to-
16:19Remy, please.
16:21We're all in this together.
16:25Your antibody markers indicate you have been vaccinated against hepatitis B.
16:30Does this mean I'm in the clear?
16:32In your case, yes. The markers are strong enough to render you immune.
16:35Thank you so much.
16:36No worries. Take care.
16:38Come here. Come here.
16:40Come here.
16:50That was quick.
16:52Your text is my command.
16:54Although not literally. I'm a strong, independent woman. I just happen to be an Ariel.
16:59Oh, well, lucky me.
17:07I made it back.
17:08Sunshine.
17:11I really should get back to work, because I already kind of missed the morning.
17:14Well, I gotta get my fish.
17:17I sorta, kinda, can't stop thinking about you.
17:23And I'd love to spend some more time with you.
17:26Same.
17:29Okay.
17:31One thing. We have to keep this on the DL.
17:34Yeah, totally. The whole working together thing.
17:37Yeah, we don't need the grief.
17:38Or the judgement.
17:39Come here. You're looking the wrong way.
17:56Sorry I'm late. Trevor needed a walk, but I am ready for our date.
18:00I don't remember the last time I went to the movies.
18:04Yeah, you okay?
18:05Yeah.
18:06Yeah, I think I'm just drained from the Aaron drama. It was a lot.
18:12Yeah, but you did so well.
18:14That blew up at him.
18:16Yeah, but then you took a breath, walked back and showed up.
18:20I can't imagine the old Nicolette doing that.
18:23This old Nicolette creature sounds like a nightmare.
18:26She had her charm, but humility, generosity, forgiveness, they weren't exactly her strong suits.
18:33But you've grown so much, and I'm really happy to be here to see it.
18:40Can't take all the credit. I don't know what I would have done without you.
18:44You make me better.
18:47I love you.
18:49I know.
18:52You let it slip yesterday.
18:56And I'll never get sick of hearing it.
18:59Because I love you too.
19:03I love you too.
19:11Okay, we should go. I'm going to run to the bathroom and then we'll head off.
19:16Yeah?
19:17Yeah.
19:34That is one good looking man.
19:38Him? I didn't notice.
19:41Is it you? You know him?
19:44Uh, yeah.
19:46That's Heath Royce. He works for Tess.
19:49He was in the office before and I'm sure he's seen you before.
19:54Yeah, I think I've seen him before.
19:56That's Heath Royce. He works for Tess.
19:59He was in the office before and I'm sure he said his name was Heath Silverson.
20:05No, it's definitely Royce.
20:08Oh, okay. Good to know. Could have been embarrassing.
20:13Oh, um, I will be back in a tick. I have got my phone.
20:21Is that the guy you had for breakfast or something?
20:26Between you and me?
20:29It is.
20:31Ollie, he's a colleague.
20:33Whatever. He's also a player.
20:35Chill. I'm having fun.
20:39And I'm going to keep having fun.
20:46You ready to head?
20:47Um, yeah. Sure. Um, but first...
20:52What's this?
20:55I feel like it's time.
20:57I used my surname because of my kids but I feel like now they wouldn't mind if I retired it.
21:04And you and Nellie and Hugo, you're my team now and I want the world to know it.
21:11Yeah.
21:13Um, wow, babe. This is, um, this is beautiful.
21:18This is beautiful. Mrs Rebecca.
21:22See? Just hearing you say it makes me feel like I've made the right decision.
21:27Anyway, um, should we go and get our stuff?
21:29Yes. Uh, yeah. I'll be back in a sec.
21:37Talk to me, Toad.
21:42Um, I don't know.
21:49Melanie didn't change her last name.
21:52Sonia was the last Mrs Rebecca.
21:57Okay, I don't want to sound like a broken record but I really think you should get counselling to talk about your feelings.
22:03It will help.
22:12What's wrong with me?
22:19Ah.
22:24Hey, Rhonda. It's Jarrod Rebecki here.
22:27I'm feeling a bit, um, overwhelmed.
22:30Just, um, I'm not, uh, coping too well.
22:34There's a bit going on.
22:36No, no, no, no. No, Therese. It's all good. No, this is just me.
22:43Coming up on Neighbours.
22:44He's saying that his name is Heath Royce and I think I know why he's been using a different surname at work.
22:49I could help you practice if you want. It'll probably be easier with an actual opponent. What do you say?
22:54You really don't feel like you can speak to Therese?
22:57I want to know what's going on with me first.
