00:00♪ Closer each day, home in the way ♪
00:08Came to make a statement.
00:09Oh, a statement? Oh yeah? Let me guess, your mate's innocent?
00:12He is. You got the wrong man.
00:15Dingo didn't kill McGrath, I did.
00:17I wasn't there when it started. Things got out of hand.
00:20And then?
00:21We've got the crowbar, don't ya?
00:23Rory Templeton, I'm placing you under arrest for the murder of Senior Constable Franklin McGrath.
00:27Rory, talk to me. I know you didn't do this.
00:29I know him, I know he isn't a murderer.
00:32His fingerprints were on the murder weapon. Nothing goes Rory's.
00:36I just think we need to support her through this and manage some of the decisions that she's making.
00:40I don't think I can do that.
00:42Leah, I've turned my life around.
00:44Why shouldn't I be able to enjoy a drink with my friends without hiding it all the time?
00:51Okay, I'm gonna have a baby.
00:55Reign that in.
00:56Babies are a lot of work.
00:57I know, but can you just be happy and celebrate with me for one moment?
01:10The moussaka is a huge hit tonight.
01:12Oh, thanks Rory.
01:15I'm so happy you two are seeing eye to eye again.
01:17Me too.
01:18Hey girls, what are you up to after work?
01:22I thought it would be really nice if you both come back to my place for a drink.
01:26Oh, that sounds like a good idea.
01:29Oh, I would.
01:32But?
01:33Well, Theo's out, so I have the house to myself.
01:36So I'm just looking forward to a quiet night in.
01:38Well, maybe next time then.
01:40You two have fun.
01:42You too.
01:53Rah.
01:54Supposedly I'm shouting dinner.
01:56Can I get the bill, please?
02:00What?
02:01Can I pay?
02:02Yeah.
02:03You should stay and have a drink with me.
02:05I'm pretty sure it's cocktail time.
02:07Dana's not drinking.
02:08Oh.
02:10Well, I mean, you and Harper were pretty clear on that before.
02:12Yes, you're right.
02:14We're doing like a detox thing.
02:16Cool.
02:17I think that's really healthy.
02:20Look, why don't you take a seat and relax and I can get Chef to cook you up like a healthy meal or something.
02:25We just ate.
02:27Yeah, yeah, I know.
02:28I'm pretty sure Zane can make you like a non-alcoholic thing.
02:31No, honestly, thank you.
02:33I'm just, I'm dead on my feet.
02:34I think I'm going to go home and sleep.
02:36I think that's a really good idea.
02:38Okay.
02:40Bye.
02:41See ya.
02:45You want to tell me what that was all about?
02:50I overheard Harper and Dana talking and she hasn't told me so I don't think I'm supposed to know.
02:53Know about what?
02:56Dana's pregnant.
02:58What?
02:59When?
03:00How?
03:01Not how, I know how.
03:04I think I'm going to go and chat to her.
03:05Wait, wait, wait.
03:06She'll tell you when she's ready.
03:13Can I get you anything?
03:20I didn't want this to happen.
03:23Don't pretend like you care now.
03:25You're high-fiving yourself over a job well done.
03:28I just followed the evidence.
03:29No.
03:32This is all to make you look good.
03:34So your superiors congratulate you for solving a cop's murder.
03:38That's not true.
03:39You know that's not true.
03:40Your reputation needs a boost, right?
03:43I get that this is a shock.
03:44No, you don't get anything.
03:46I love Rory.
03:48And I'm not turning my back on him because of you.
03:56Hi.
03:57Hi.
04:00What happened?
04:05I hope you don't mind drinking out of these, darling.
04:07We don't have any wine glasses in the house.
04:10Can you believe it?
04:11I'm afraid this joint has been dry for way too long.
04:18Well, I guess this is cheers, Irene.
04:22I hope this is a happy chapter for you.
04:26Thanks, lover.
04:27Look, I really appreciate it,
04:29but can't this just be a casual drink between friends after work?
04:34I just want to be normal, like everyone else, you know, without the fanfare.
04:39Cheers.
04:42Hello.
04:43Oh, hi.
04:45Hey.
04:46Not staying at Sanders tonight?
04:48Oh, I'm so happy you two are back together.
04:51No, no, I'm going to be here for Harper.
04:53Oh, why, is there a problem?
04:55No, not at all.
04:56No, she's making me breakfast tomorrow.
04:58Oh, lucky you.
04:59Hey, you want to join us for a drink?
05:01I would.
05:02I promised Harper.
05:04Promised her what?
05:06I'm not making any sense.
05:08I really need to go to bed.
05:11More for us.
05:12Good night.
05:13Good night.
05:16Top up?
05:17Oh, no, Irene, I've got to go to work tomorrow.
05:19So do I.
05:33Hello?
05:56Hello?
05:58Anyone home?
06:00Justin!
06:01Hey.
06:03Miss you.
06:08Why didn't you tell me that you were coming?
06:10Because I wanted to see this look on your face.
06:12How are you home for?
06:13Four hours.
06:14Nina's all set up to do fizzy out of home and Ava's doing great, so.
06:17Oh, that is so good to hear.
06:21I have missed you.
06:22Yeah, I've missed you.
06:25Hey, so, are things finally back to normal around here?
06:29Oh, finally.
06:32Tell me about it.
06:34It's so good to have you around.
06:35I know.
06:37It's Irene.
06:39Ah, all right.
06:41Why don't I put the kettle on and you can tell me all about it?
06:44You know, I can go so you can talk to Felicity.
06:50Right now I'm the last person she wants to talk to.
06:53You're her brother.
06:54No, I am the guy putting the man she loves behind bars.
06:59Loves?
07:00Mm-hmm.
07:01She said that?
07:02Yep.
07:03I knew they were getting close, but didn't realize they'd gotten so close.
07:08I'm sorry.
07:09I knew they were getting close, but didn't realize they'd gotten to that point.
07:14No, you and me both.
07:20Hey.
07:29Talk to her.
07:30Mm-hmm.
07:31At least try, babe.
07:40What can I do to help?
07:44I want to see Rory.
07:46You said he's going to Romaine tomorrow?
07:47Yeah.
07:48So let me talk to him first.
07:50Please, Cash, I need this.
08:04Are you ready?
08:06Mm-hmm.
08:10What are you doing here?
08:13I need to talk to Rory.
08:15That's not going to happen.
08:16This is my idea.
08:20He's in the interview room, waiting for transport to Romaine.
08:22How much time have you got?
08:23I don't know, about ten minutes?
08:35Hey, look, this is my assistant. She's just going to take a minute.
08:40Okay.
08:54You shouldn't come back.
09:01I need you to be honest with me.
09:10Did you murder that man?
09:16Yes.
09:23Are you serious?
09:24I'm sorry.
09:27This isn't what I wanted for us.
09:34You need to forget about me.
09:39Okay.
09:50Nice to see you back out there.
09:52Yeah.
09:53Did I help?
09:54Not really.
09:56I just don't understand why she hasn't told me.
09:58If this was you, you'd tell her father, wouldn't you?
10:00Then you can't make that comparison. I can't speak for her.
10:04Hello.
10:05Hi.
10:06Haven't I seen you here?
10:07Is everything all good?
10:08You guys kind of look like you were having a bit of a D&M.
10:11Actually, checking you out from a distance.
10:13You haven't mastered the lip reading yet.
10:15I didn't realise you were working today.
10:17No, John called in a favour last minute.
10:20You sure you should be doing that?
10:22Yeah, why?
10:24I'll catch you guys later.
10:29You know you can tell me anything, yeah?
10:30Yes.
10:32Are you okay?
10:33Yeah, I'm good.
10:34But if something's going on with me, I would let you know.
10:38Sure, yeah.
10:39Great.
10:40Great.
10:42Well, I'm going to go back to work.
10:43Yeah.
10:44I've got, you know, lives to save, all that.
10:45Yeah.
10:46But I'll see you later.
10:47Yeah, you will.
10:56Hey.
10:57Hey.
10:58How's Cash doing?
11:00Ah, things...
11:03Things with Fleck are a bit rough.
11:05Yeah.
11:06Well, if he needs a boost, can you tell him that everyone at Yabby Creek was singing his praises last night?
11:10Yeah, thanks.
11:11I will.
11:12See ya.
11:13Bye.
11:18Is your sister okay?
11:20I think so.
11:23Well, at least she's out of danger now.
11:24Yeah.
11:27I wanted to thank you.
11:28You're kind of a pain, this whole investigation, but we wouldn't have gotten these guys if it weren't for you, so...
11:36Go ahead, it's over.
11:37Mm.
11:58Let's go home.
12:29Bye.
12:42Well, tonight was fun.
12:43Yeah, it was.
12:44We should do it again sometime.
12:45What about tonight?
12:46Oh, Irene, I don't really drink during the week.
12:49Suit yourself, love.
12:50Hey, Mum.
12:51Hey.
12:52Oh, hi.
12:53This is a surprise.
12:54Yes, well, it was for me too.
12:55We didn't tell me that he was coming home.
12:57So, what on earth are you doing here?
12:59Why don't you take the day off?
13:01One step ahead of you.
13:02We're just here to get some take away and we're heading back home.
13:05So, how's Ava?
13:06Yeah, she's so good.
13:07She's gonna ace those exams.
13:09I bet you were one hard task last time.
13:12Yeah, I was a little bit, but listen, how have you been?
13:15I heard that whole business with Bronte's been really upsetting.
13:18Yeah, yeah, it was pretty shocking, all right.
13:21How have you been dealing with that?
13:24Well, with the help of great mates
13:27and focusing on what's important in my life,
13:30I'm coming through the other side, thank you.
13:33That sounds really good.
13:39Zan, this is a bad idea.
13:40You need to give Dana the space to tell you in her own time.
13:43I can't wait any longer.
13:44There's a reason she hasn't told you yet.
13:46I don't know what that is, but bottom line, you have to respect her.
13:49I do respect her.
13:50I just, if I'm scared or confused and terrified,
13:54then she's gonna be feeling it a thousand times worse.
13:56I just want her to know that, you know, I'm here for her.
13:59Good luck.
14:01Hi.
14:02Hi.
14:03Ugh, I gotta rethink these early mornings.
14:05I'm exhausted.
14:07Hey, can we talk?
14:08Yeah.
14:11I've just got a few things I want to say.
14:13What's up?
14:15Firstly, I want you to know that you're not alone
14:18and I'm here for you and I'm ready to step up.
14:22What are you talking about?
14:24Uh, the baby, fetus, the, um, I...
14:30I know that you're pregnant, Dana.
14:42So you're not pregnant?
14:44Correct.
14:45Please be honest.
14:46I said I would be there for you and I will.
14:49And I'm really grateful for that, but it's not necessary.
14:51I heard you and Harper talking.
14:52I know something's going on.
14:53Xander, I am not with child.
14:55I don't know what else to tell you that.
14:57And what were you talking about?
14:59I'm not gonna dig that hole any deeper, no.
15:01You're saying that you're not pregnant.
15:03Why is Harper banging on about being a single mother?
15:11Yeah.
15:12Can we just acknowledge that I didn't technically tell you that?
15:17But also, I'm sorry that you had to go through that.
15:21So much for being ready.
15:24I was just surprised.
15:28How's Harper?
15:30She's okay, I think.
15:33I think she's actually letting herself get excited.
15:37I think you need to see her drinking to understand why I'm so worried.
15:41Hey.
15:43You want me to take your mind off her for a bit, eh?
15:46I'm sorry.
15:47Talk to me.
15:48Well, it's just, she suddenly decided to start drinking again after being sober for so many years.
15:55Like it's not gonna be a problem.
15:57Well, you don't think maybe she'd be able to keep it under control?
16:01I don't know, maybe some people can.
16:03But I saw Irene last time she was drinking and it's ugly.
16:08She's begged me to trust her on this and I said I would, but maybe I'm not the right person to talk to her.
16:15Yeah, I hear what you're saying.
16:17So how would you feel about talking to her?
16:19Really?
16:20Yeah, I think that she might open up to you and you can find out what's really going on.
16:25I've tried and she just gets really defensive.
16:28I know how much you care about her and I kind of know what she's going through.
16:32So you'll try?
16:34Yeah, yeah, I will.
16:38Hey.
16:41Hungry?
16:42Made lunch.
16:43Nah, couldn't eat.
16:45I'll make you feel better.
16:47How you doing?
16:51Cash was right, I was wrong.
16:53It's not your fault.
16:54No one's judging you, Flea.
16:55You sure?
16:56Because this always happens.
16:58You always make the right decisions, I always make the wrong ones.
17:00Okay, can we not do this, please?
17:03Flea, just leave me alone.
17:05Hey.
17:14Wish she liked this the whole way home.
17:16I'd prefer it if she was angry at me.
17:20She'll come around, she just needs time.
17:24Yeah.
17:35Thanks.
17:56Coming.
17:58One boutique.
18:03G'day, all right?
18:04Hey, Jane.
18:05Hey.
18:06Sorry to barge in like this, I hope I'm not interrupting.
18:07No, no.
18:12I need your advice.
18:15On what?
18:16I'm planning a surprise for Leah to make up for all that time I was away.
18:22Justin, why do you need my help?
18:24You planned an entire wedding by yourself.
18:27Yeah, I think I picked too early in the marriage.
18:29I'm all out of ideas.
18:32You're one of her best mates.
18:34Hey, I just need to pick your brain, is that all right?
18:35Yeah.
18:42If you're planning a surprise picnic on the beach for Leah, why do you need to rope me in?
18:47You pretend Leah's got a shift and, you know, then we trick her.
18:51Mm-hmm.
18:53What do you think?
18:56I think I could do with a drink.
19:02You want to join me?
19:04Yeah, sure.
19:09This is different.
19:12Didn't know you were drinking again.
19:14Yeah, well, I enjoy the odd wine here and there.
19:21Just the one?
19:23Yep, I know my limits.
19:26And you know what, it's kind of nice to have a drink socially with your mates now and then.
19:35Is that a problem?
19:38No, no, no, just surprised, that's all.
19:42Really?
19:44Because it's as plain as the nose on your face that your wife sent you here to check on me.
19:53Don't you think you should wait until you calm down a bit?
19:56Did you just tell me to flip and calm down?
19:59Irene, hi.
20:00Hi.
20:02You sent your husband to snoop on me.
20:05You know that I'm worried about you.
20:07I asked you to trust me.
20:10You've been faking it, pretending to support me.
20:13Irene, I do trust you.
20:15Really? Well, it doesn't look like it from where I stand.
20:18What is wrong with me having a couple of drinks with my friends?
20:22You know it's never just a couple of drinks.
20:24You know what, a real friend wouldn't pretend to be on board when they're not.
20:28Come on, Leah cares about you.
20:30You pull your head in.
20:32You have got no idea what I have been through the last couple of months.
20:37Exactly, and using alcohol is not the way to cope.
20:41Leah, I have this under control, alright?
20:44You're the one with the problem.
20:51Sorry.
20:59You were feeling really positive about the AA meeting when I left,
21:03and I come back and you're drinking. What happened?
21:05Look at me, fit as a mallee bull.
21:07Sorry to disappoint, there was nothing to see here.
21:10Our alcoholic friend is throwing a dinner party to prove she's not an alcoholic
21:14and everyone is fine with that.
21:16No, not fine.
21:20Did you find what you're looking for?
21:22No, I was, um…
21:24John, I know exactly what you're looking for.
