00:02It's a bombsite.
00:03I do need to clean it up.
00:05I've been meaning to thank you for the church fundraiser.
00:08I will get it right, this time. I mean, with you and me.
00:13I just saw him and Tess.
00:15I guess I can learn to share.
00:18Paul!
00:19Reece wants to sell her half of the hotel.
00:21We do have to discuss Krista though.
00:24Discretion is essential for me too.
00:26I think we should keep our eyes and ears open until we know exactly what she's up to.
00:56That's when good neighbours become good friends.
01:14I'm glad you like your spa, Claire.
01:16It's not the only thing I like.
01:19But it is the only thing I didn't take home.
01:23Do you have to go back to work?
01:25Unfortunately.
01:28Yeah. Tess is probably wondering where I am too.
01:33Do you think it's serious from her point of view?
01:36No. I'm just Tess' play toy.
01:40You're the one I want to be with.
01:44You know that, right?
01:46What if I forget I've got this to remind me?
01:59Hey, better up, better up!
02:03Teamwork!
02:05Hey!
02:06Dad!
02:07Hey!
02:09Where did you disappear to, huh?
02:11What did he have to say?
02:12There's one service left at the old church.
02:14He thought I might want to go.
02:16Is he going to be there?
02:17No, no, no. He was just helping back up.
02:19I guess he was just being a friend.
02:22Okay.
02:24I think I might go.
02:28Knock yourself out.
02:30Yeah.
02:32Yeah.
02:34See ya. Bye.
02:41What are you annoyed about?
02:44The fact that she's talking to Sasha?
02:46Or the whole church thing?
02:47Not the church thing.
02:49Didn't you help her with the whole fundraiser?
02:50Yes.
02:52It was important to her.
02:54But I'm not going to help her.
02:57I'm not going to help her.
02:58I'm not going to help her.
02:59I'm not going to help her.
03:00I'm not going to help her.
03:01I'm not going to help her.
03:02What would have happened if you actually saved the place?
03:04I don't know. I hadn't gotten that far.
03:07We've just gotten over so many hurdles to get back together.
03:10Like, what if this Christian hurdle is the one that trips us up?
03:15What are you guys looking at?
03:17Email from the real estate agent.
03:19Oh, any prospective tenants for the nursery?
03:22None that we want.
03:24Storage facility?
03:26Paintball experience?
03:29Is that even legal?
03:32I don't even know why he's sending us stuff.
03:34I told him that it has to remain Sonia's nursery.
03:37Well, clearly he's not getting the memo.
03:40To be fair, he's hardly going to lease it in the state it's in.
03:44I'm looking for a company to clean it up.
03:47Why don't we do it?
03:49Oh, um, that's a pretty big job, mate.
03:52We could always make a start.
03:54Yeah, you know what? I agree.
03:56And we've got nothing on for the rest of the day.
03:58Uh, yes. Yeah, let's do that.
04:01Yep, good idea.
04:03Let's go get changed, mate.
04:09Are you sure you're up for this, sweetheart?
04:11Yeah, I am. It's just, you know, Dad's right.
04:15It's a big job.
04:16Hmm.
04:17Yep.
04:18Yep.
04:28We don't want to overstep.
04:29No, we learned that lesson the hard way.
04:31Yeah, it's just that we hardly ever see Holly at home.
04:34Yeah.
04:35Well, we do see her, it's always, you know,
04:37I'm good, I'm great, I'm awesome.
04:40It's only consolation I don't think she's out partying anymore.
04:44Oh, sweetheart, hi.
04:46Hey.
04:47Morning.
04:48Good.
04:49Great.
04:50Awesome.
04:51Um, housekeeping asked me to drop these off.
04:53Thanks, Holly.
04:57I guess we've just got to trust that she's okay.
04:59Yeah.
05:00If I see any reason to worry, I'll let you know.
05:03Okay, thanks. We'll see you later.
05:04Bye.
05:09How are you feeling?
05:11Hmm.
05:12You mean now that I know that Tess is trying to shaft me?
05:15Why don't we get out of here?
05:17Because I have to work.
05:18It won't take long and it'll be worth it.
05:33Feeling better?
05:35I am.
05:38It's worth it.
05:40And if you look on the bright side,
05:42Dad had the chance to sell the hotel but he's holding on to it to be loyal to you.
05:47Yeah, well I think you're a big part of that decision.
05:50He's a smart businessman, right? He wouldn't do it unless he backed you.
05:54You've come a long way, me and old Paul Robinson.
05:58Now we just need to figure out what that Tess is up to.
06:02It's obvious, isn't it?
06:05She's been pretending to support me while deciding whether or not to keep the hotel.
06:09With a stupid psychic following her around.
06:12Yeah, no one should even care about Heath's past.
06:17Just this whole thing's been an exercise in screwing me over.
06:40He's always wanted the hotel to himself.
06:43What about Reese? Do you think she'll sell it to Krista?
06:46She won't care.
06:48She never thinks about Krista.
06:50Or me.
06:52Can we skim money off the sale?
06:56It wasn't in the original plan, but yes.
07:01On top of what we're making at Warawee and the other investments,
07:05we'll be set for life.
07:12Heath.
07:14Hmm?
07:15Yeah, set for life.
07:18On that, I need you to go to Warawee for a few days.
07:21Why?
07:22You need to make sure that nothing's left behind that would contradict our story of the business going sour.
07:27I mean, can't Justin go?
07:30No.
07:31The business going sour?
07:33I mean, can't Justin go?
07:36He's not the sharpest tool in the shed.
07:40Unlike you.
07:44You making fun of me?
07:46No.
07:51Are we done here?
07:55I've offended you.
07:57I'm sorry.
08:01Why don't you show me how sorry you are?
08:13Uh, hi!
08:16What's happened? Is something wrong?
08:18I've come to show my support.
08:20Right.
08:21I've come to church with you before.
08:22Yeah, it didn't exactly stick as a habit.
08:25I want to do things differently this time.
08:28Come on, we're going to miss the opening number.
08:30You mean the worship service?
08:31Yep, that's what I meant.
08:36Well, you're right.
08:38It certainly has gone to rack and ruin.
08:41We'll have it sorted in no time.
08:43You know, maybe we should call Rhett. Get him to pop down.
08:46Good idea. We can put a rocket up him.
08:48Hugo! Where'd you learn that expression?
08:51From you.
08:54Does sound like something you'd say.
08:58Hey, you alright?
09:00Yeah, I'll call him now.
09:03What are they doing here?
09:05Oh, well, Nell and I thought that we'd message some friends to come and help.
09:09Well, you called the cavalry.
09:11So, here we are.
09:16Oh, that sermon was so good.
09:18And I really liked that pastor.
09:20Too bad she wasn't there before.
09:21Yeah, she was alright.
09:23I feel like she pushed a little though, right?
09:26The music was very loud.
09:29Okay.
09:31Why did you actually come?
09:34What? I can't just make a little constructive criticism?
09:37You've liked services before, but you clearly didn't like that one.
09:40And now you're hating on the pastor?
09:42What's up?
09:49I am scared about history repeating.
09:54I'm never going to believe in God, and that is so important to you.
09:59And you're telling me that's okay now, but what about in five years?
10:03Ten? Fifty? Because I'm in this for the long haul and I don't want to lose you.
10:13Come on.
10:15What? Are we going to pray?
10:19No, we're going to talk about this.
10:21Otherwise we may as well break up now, which I don't want to do.
10:25Well, I don't want that either.
10:26Well, then let's do what we said we'd do. Learn from our mistakes and communicate.
10:39What are you thinking about?
10:41What I meant to pack for war away, apparently.
10:45Buy yourself a new wardrobe. Outback style.
10:49So now I'm allowed to spend money.
10:51Heath.
10:57This was left for you at reception.
11:02Nice bling.
11:05You can go now.
11:08Okay.
11:27Hey, Toby. Are you okay with Therese inviting everyone down here?
11:32Yeah. Yeah, it's fine.
11:44Hey, so I've been meaning to ask you, how's things going with JJ?
11:49Good. He's been really supportive.
11:53So do you still like him?
11:54Romantically?
11:55I can recycle that bike.
11:58More than ever.
12:00But it's complicated because of Dex.
12:04Well, maybe the first step to uncomplicate it is maybe talk to your dad?
12:10How? After everything that's happened, how do I say,
12:13oh, hey dad, guess what, but I really like JJ after all.
12:18You like JJ?
12:20You and you?
12:22You and you?
12:26Um, I left something at the front.
12:34Look, I'm sorry. I was put in a difficult position.
12:37She asked me to keep it a secret and I wanted to respect that.
12:44Yeah, you're right. Absolutely. You did the right thing.
12:48Maybe you should go after her.
12:51Yeah.
12:59Well, according to what I found online,
13:02Tess was promoted to head of Asia Pacific three months ago.
13:05That makes sense.
13:07Yeah, I remember her buying a company in Adelaide last time she was here.
13:10Even so, I mean, I wouldn't really call it a promotion.
13:13I mean, she was always second in command to your father.
13:16I'm sure she's still in a pretty sweet deal.
13:18You know, there is one way we can figure it out.
13:21Reese.
13:25Yeah, um, I think maybe we should wait just a little while, all right?
13:29Okay.
13:31You know what, I've got to grab Abby, so I'll see you soon, okay?
13:42This is really upsetting you, isn't it?
13:45The idea that Reese could actually be involved in this deal.
13:48Yeah.
13:49I just hate that I allowed myself to think that things are actually going well here.
13:53Oh, come on.
13:55You're doing brilliantly. You've done an amazing job.
13:57Well, no thanks to Brett.
13:59Now you have the opportunity to take full control of the hotel again.
14:03So why are you backing me?
14:05Because I realize what an asset you are.
14:11Maybe you should go to New York more often.
14:14Maybe I should.
14:16Kirsten, I'm not the man that I was when I left.
14:20I'm kind of looking at this as a whole new chapter.
14:24Was there anything you got out of church the last time?
14:27Yeah, yeah, I found some peace.
14:29It was just never going to be a thing that I did regularly.
14:34You want to break up, don't you?
14:36I don't want to break up. I love you.
14:39Well, you love God more.
14:41It's not mutually exclusive.
14:42But my faith is a part of me the same way that Isla and Aaron are a part of you.
14:49I saw you gushing over that pasta.
14:52Okay, I don't want another Sasha situation.
14:55I promise I'll always be open with you about them.
15:01Am I still allowed to make fun of the music when I think it's over the top?
15:06There was a lot of acoustic guitar today.
15:09Babe, there was so much acoustic guitar!
15:13I love you.
15:16I want to make this work.
15:18So do I.
15:29Going to church really gets you in the mood, huh?
15:42Hey, why didn't you answer your phone?
15:44Why do you think?
15:46You said you were fine with being non-exclusive.
15:48Yeah, I know.
15:49Then why are you acting like this?
15:50It's more challenging than I thought.
15:52I told you, it's not forever.
15:56I know that too.
15:57Okay, then how are we going to get through this?
15:59Because all hell is going to break loose if Tess finds out.
16:02I'm not going to tell her.
16:03Yeah, but if you keep acting weird, she's going to know something's up.
16:05I know something's up.
16:10Okay, I'm sorry. I guess I just need to avoid you two when you're together.
16:17So we're good?
16:21We're good.
16:31Hey.
16:33Dear, look, I'm sorry for reacting that way.
16:37No dramas.
16:39Really?
16:40Because I know you kind of took off a bit dramatically.
16:44Don't worry about it.
16:46That's my job.
16:48Because I'm your dad.
16:51Yeah, but I don't want to fight about this.
16:56And I know you'll say you won't, but every time JJ's name comes up,
17:00you get upset.
17:04I'll try not to.
17:08Alright.
17:12He was with me when I found the nursery was a mess.
17:17Was he?
17:19See, you're mad, aren't you?
17:23Even though he was only there as a friend and was really supportive.
17:28Was really supportive.
17:32No, I'm not upset.
17:36I'm really glad that you had a friend with you when you found the nursery like that.
17:40Truly.
17:43Thanks.
17:46So, if you're hanging out with JJ, why is Dex being all weird with you?
17:52I don't know.
17:54Does he like you too?
17:57Yeah.
17:59Oh, Nellie Fish.
18:02It's been a bit awkward.
18:07Yeah.
18:10So, you're not upset?
18:15I'm upset that you feel like you can't talk to me about this stuff.
18:18That's my doing. That's not on you at all.
18:21I'm glad you got Therese to talk to.
18:26I love you.
18:28I love you too.
18:32And look, I know you want to do your own thing with JJ, right?
18:39But just for what it's worth, considering everyone's feelings,
18:43maybe you should just not rush into anything.
18:46Okay?
18:48Yeah.
18:50Yeah.
18:57Oh, you're getting big, aren't you?
19:00Gee whiz.
19:09Oh.
19:11Hi.
19:12Hi.
19:13Hey.
19:14Hi.
19:15Hi, Brett.
19:16Hi, Therese Rebecki.
19:17Look, Toadie's just popped home for a minute.
19:20Of course. I just wanted to catch him before he went too overboard with the repairs.
19:25Listen, I'd love to know if it's alright, what we're up against.
19:31You said you're finding it hard to lease the place as a nursery.
19:34Yeah, I feel like I've dropped the rent to rock bottom.
19:38I don't want to speak out of turn, but I might need some help convincing him to try an alternate business.
19:45Ah.
19:51Where'd you get that?
19:54My mum.
20:00Alright. It's from Eth.
20:02You're still seeing him?
20:03Yeah.
20:05Even though he's with Tess?
20:08We talked about it. He likes me more.
20:10How do you know that?
20:11Well, he gave this to me, not her.
20:14Oh, yeah.
20:16Hey, relax. I've been in open relationships before.
20:18Is it open if one person doesn't know about it?
20:21Don't be so judgy.
20:23He's a convicted corporate fraudster who's sleeping with his boss and cheating on her with you.
20:30He's giving Aiden vibes.
20:31No, it's not.
20:33Say, I'm completely in control here.
20:36Don't look now.
20:37Hello, Krista.
20:39Hi.
20:40I saw the report from the Mystery Shopper Company.
20:43Really? I haven't had a chance to read it yet.
20:45They gave some interesting recommendations.
20:48Good work.
20:49Well, it was your idea, so really I should be thanking you.
20:53Actually,
20:56thank you for everything.
20:58You've been really great since Paul got back.
21:01Yeah, you could be throwing me under the bus, and you're not.
21:04I really appreciate it.
21:06You're welcome.
21:17Just the person I want to see.
21:21Going up, I presume?
21:23Always.
21:26Good news.
21:28Lassiter's has been identified as a potential suspect.
21:31Lassiter's has been identified as a potential asset to divest.
21:36So does that mean you've spoken to Reese?
21:38She's left the decision up to me.
21:40Get your finances in order.
21:42Because when it happens, it could happen quickly.
21:54So you don't think I'm being too unrealistic?
21:56No, I think that's a fantastic idea.
21:58Oh my goodness, I've got goosebumps just thinking about it.
22:00Hey, guys, I have had a brainwave.
22:04Irene Rising could take over the lease of the nursery,
22:06and we could use it as a garden for the residents.
22:09That's a great idea.
22:10I think they would love it.
22:11Yeah, that sounds like a real win-win for everyone, doesn't it?
22:13Yeah, well, we could start on the lease agreement this afternoon.
22:16Sure.
22:17No, no, no, no, just no, no.
22:19What?
22:20Stop.
22:22Get out.
22:23What?
22:24Get out.
22:26Get out!
22:27Go!
22:30Go!
22:50Coming up on Neighbours.
22:53What's this?
22:55Have you seen Therese lately?
22:58No, why?
22:59I've always thought Melanie was the threat,
23:01and never, ever, ever thought that Sonya would be an issue.
23:04Susan, am I meant to be worried?
