00:00This Joseph guy has decided not to sue you anymore.
00:10I'll withdraw my claim as well then.
00:12You will?
00:13I think it's time that I, um, I probably move out.
00:16That wasn't in the plan.
00:17You've gone above and beyond for me, but without the money for the trial, we both know the
00:22reality I'm facing.
00:23How would you plan on paying her then if the insurance company's not going to cover it?
00:26I'll be paying out of my own pocket.
00:28$50,000?
00:29I mean, where would you find that amount of money?
00:30I don't have to justify myself to you.
00:32No, you don't.
00:33You're right.
00:34You only need Irene to believe you.
00:35That's what the real money is.
00:36There's something seriously wrong with you.
00:38I mean, I could say the same for you, but we both know it's not an autoimmune disease.
00:41Yeah.
00:42Off you go.
00:43I'm going to make it my personal crusade to prove that you're a liar.
00:45Hey, you have a problem?
00:46Why don't you want to be involved anymore?
00:47Look, you really can't guess.
00:48Did I do something?
00:49Yes!
00:50You slept with me and then you acted like it meant nothing.
00:53Anyway, now you know why I can't work with you anymore.
00:56It's just too hard.
00:57I reckon the committee's already made up their mind.
00:59They're worried that the kids you choose for this course won't behave themselves in
01:02here.
01:03You and I need to sit down with Harper and work out the best way to reassure them.
01:07Is that... is that necessary?
01:14If the nation's on Brian's case, just keep going up.
01:16This isn't a good time.
01:17Well, that's on top of the money coming from Seoul.
01:19Thanks to Xander.
01:20I don't know why everyone's so trusting.
01:21Well, go complain to him.
01:23That's not really an option, is it?
01:24Because we're not seeing eye to eye.
01:25It's giving him space.
01:26Just give me a minute.
01:30What?
01:31Will you let it go?
01:32I'm sorry.
01:33Am I the only one that actually cares about Irene?
01:34You've barely spoken to her.
01:35Because I don't know what to say to her.
01:37Every time I see her, I just want to yell at her.
01:39What are you doing?
01:40How about you try this?
01:41Turn off your phone.
01:42And stop fixating about the Bronte thing and the whole money issue.
01:47Mike, you're going to listen to me.
01:50Oh, look.
01:51Your demigod's at two o'clock.
01:54Will you stop calling him that?
01:55I'm sorry.
01:56Is it too soon?
01:57Diana, rack up!
02:00I'm sorry.
02:05Careful.
02:06She's in a bit of a mood.
02:23How'd you go at half?
02:24Are we all set?
02:25Yeah, I haven't had a chance to talk to you.
02:27Well, you better get on to it, mate.
02:28The sooner we hash this out,
02:29the better chance we've got of turning the committee around.
02:31Yep, yep.
02:32I hear you.
02:33Well, let us know when you're both free, eh?
02:37Hey.
02:39Let me help you.
02:41Ah, thank you.
02:42I'll drop these.
02:43Great.
02:44Life saver.
02:46Marley's still got you flying solid.
02:47Ah, yeah.
02:48But I can handle it.
02:50And between you and me,
02:51I actually think you might need another day to recover.
02:53I was pretty banged up by those guys.
02:56Marley's lucky he's got you.
02:58Well, I need the distraction, so it's a win-win.
03:02Hi.
03:04Can I help you?
03:05I wouldn't say no.
03:07Let's see, something you like?
03:11I'm in the boards.
03:13Right.
03:15Yeah, my mate Dean mentioned this guy makes some pretty sick boards.
03:20I want to order one.
03:21Can you make that happen?
03:22I'm sorry, Marley's not working today.
03:24You'll have to come back.
03:26You can't take the order?
03:28How about you write your details down here,
03:33and I will get Marley to call you?
03:37You know, if you wanted my number,
03:39you could have just asked.
03:41Trust me, I'm good.
03:44Worth a shot.
03:46Hi.
03:57How do I look?
03:58Employed.
04:00You look great.
04:01You're just taking pity on me because my boyfriend's away?
04:04Yeah, don't get used to it.
04:06Why didn't you go with him?
04:07He went camping,
04:08and we all know how that ended for me last time.
04:10He needed space,
04:11and I'm about to start my new job,
04:14so it was perfect timing.
04:16Come on, Aiden, I've been up all night working.
04:17I need that.
04:18Oh, yeah.
04:19How was the session?
04:20It was good.
04:21Now, what's the deal with Cash?
04:22Why does he need space?
04:24He applied for a job.
04:26What, with a security firm?
04:27Police force.
04:29Oh, that's huge.
04:30Yeah, he's still waiting to hear from them.
04:31It's driving him crazy.
04:33It's your first day?
04:35I thought I'd walk you to work.
04:37How does it feel?
04:39It feels weird to be up before 10am,
04:41and you grab food.
04:42No, no, no, no.
04:43You can get food at work.
04:44Let's go.
04:46And Max's not there.
04:47She's with Levi.
04:48Is he still in hospital?
04:50No.
04:51Actually, he's at home.
04:52Okay.
04:53Good.
04:54Good.
04:55All right, let's get a move on.
04:57Don't want to be late for my first day.
04:58You want to go and grab a proper coffee?
05:01No way.
05:02Not when I've got the place to myself.
05:03Come on.
05:04Aiden, good luck.
05:05I need it.
05:06Bye.
05:07Bye.
05:13Well, well, well.
05:15Haven't seen you in here for a couple of days.
05:18Yes.
05:19Well, I realise that your lattes are better than Salt's.
05:23You trying to butter me up?
05:25Is it working?
05:28Love, I hate it when there's tension between the two of us.
05:32Yeah, so do I.
05:33I promise I'm not going to bring up anything to do with Bronte.
05:37Deal.
05:39But how are things with you and Leah?
05:40Have you told her that Bronte is still suing the diner?
05:42Oh, my God, father.
05:44That is a flipping world record.
05:46Didn't we just agree we weren't going to talk about Bronte?
05:48Yes, but I haven't had my coffee yet.
05:50Oh, I'm on to it.
05:51Hi.
05:53Hey, you're back already.
05:55Yeah, well, Ava's got a lot of revision to do and Justin has it all mapped out.
05:59I was just getting in the way.
06:01No, I'm getting flashbacks.
06:02Justin is your study partner.
06:03It's not good.
06:05Actually, Ava is enjoying having her dad around.
06:08So how is everything here?
06:10Yep, all good.
06:12How are my complaints?
06:14Oh, good.
06:16I can't tell you how happy I am to have all that insurance stuff behind me.
06:18I still don't know how you talked Joseph and Bronte into dropping their claims.
06:21Simple.
06:23Irene and I are master negotiators.
06:25Don't mess with us.
06:27Isn't that right, Irene?
06:29That's right.
06:31Come on, help.
06:33So you haven't told her, then?
06:39Hello.
06:41I've just been thinking.
06:43About?
06:45You seem relieved that Levi's been discharged from hospital.
06:49I'm not completely heartless.
06:51Are you sure you don't want to visit him?
06:53Obviously, I'm glad that he's okay, but it doesn't change things between us.
06:57Besides, I am sure Mac is taking care of him.
07:00About that, you do know that I can't 100% guarantee she won't show up.
07:03It's her restaurant, too.
07:05It's totally fine.
07:06She's not my problem.
07:08I'm sorry, since when?
07:10I realize it's not her fault that she's fallen in love with a lying, cheating loser.
07:15Well, that's very mature of you, Eden.
07:19Well, look at us, all employed, working in the same building.
07:22Time to make some bank.
07:28Ignore him.
07:30He already tried it on me at the board shop.
07:32He's kind of hot.
07:34Your point?
07:36Is that for all of us?
07:38Does it matter?
07:40What's going to happen, we fall at his feet?
07:42It's just a power move.
07:44He's trying to make us squirm.
07:46Well, he's not doing it on my balcony.
07:53Hey.
07:55You look like someone who drinks cocktails.
07:57Much out?
07:59How about never?
08:01You could apologize for wolf whistling.
08:03Worked, didn't it?
08:05You couldn't race up those stairs fast enough to come meet me.
08:07You think I came up here for you?
08:09I don't want my restaurant and I don't want my balcony being used as a pickup spot.
08:11So you're the boss then?
08:13I do like a woman in charge.
08:17In future, don't objectify women.
08:20Wait, wait, you think that we have a future?
08:22I'll take one guess.
08:24Fair enough.
08:26I apologize.
08:30Um, just so you know,
08:32I wasn't whistling at women.
08:34I was whistling at you.
08:39And just so you know,
08:41it was offensive.
08:58I'll see you next time.
09:00Thanks.
09:04Well done.
09:06Thanks.
09:08You, uh, got a sec?
09:10I meant what I said.
09:12You and I need space.
09:14Yeah, look, I know and I'm sorry.
09:16There's a problem with the proposal.
09:18John's still causing issues?
09:20He's trying to put out the fire that he started,
09:22but now the committee has a lot of questions.
09:24And you're worried they'll vote no against it?
09:26Yeah.
09:28Now Alex asked for a meeting with me and you.
09:33But I have nothing to do with the project anymore.
09:35Yeah, I know, but your name's still on the proposal.
09:36And our firm is still working together.
09:39So you're asking me to lie?
09:41I'm asking you to help me out here.
09:43Please, Apple?
09:54So, does Mackenzie know I work here now?
10:01What?
10:03Mack, no. Not yet.
10:05How come?
10:07I figured I'd see if you lasted one whole shift
10:09before broadcasting it.
10:11Is that cool?
10:13Mm-hmm.
10:16What's that about?
10:18What?
10:20Oh, come on, you guys have not taken your eyes off each other.
10:23Keeping my eye on rowdy customers is my job.
10:26Okay.
10:27It's called RSA.
10:28Uh-huh.
10:29Yeah.
10:30RSA.
10:32My guy's still here.
10:34Is he giving you trouble?
10:36Yeah, Flick, is he giving you any trouble?
10:38No gossiping. Staff rule.
10:40You just made that up.
10:44I'll have another beer.
10:47How about a round for you three?
10:49We're working.
10:51Yeah, I noticed.
10:53I'm Rory.
10:56I'm Kev.
10:58She's Felicity.
11:01You can leave now.
11:04Hey, do us a favor.
11:06Tell your mate to give me a chance.
11:12Unbelievable.
11:14Why does he think he has the right to do that?
11:16Uh, maybe because the sparks have been flying all morning.
11:19Are you kidding?
11:21What?
11:23The baguette?
11:25Come on, babe, you like him.
11:27Just give it a go.
11:29Come on.
11:31Come on.
11:33Come on.
11:36Thanks for doing this.
11:38Oh, no, off you go.
11:40Tane, will you relax?
11:42Okay, you've got this.
11:44Oh, g'day.
11:46G'day.
11:48Right.
11:50I, um, I take it you know what's going on here.
11:53I want to support this project,
11:55but Palmer has made the committee feel a bit nervous
11:58about the sort of kids that are coming here.
12:00Well, how are we meant to help if they're not even allowed in?
12:03Well, the committee just need a bit of reassurance, that's all.
12:06So, um, it says here
12:10that you're going to be the one who will actually select the kids
12:13that come into this program.
12:15Uh, yeah, I'll be introducing Tane to the young people
12:18that will benefit most.
12:20You know, to get things started.
12:22Good, um, and once it's up and running,
12:24you'll still be heavily involved?
12:26Sorry?
12:28Well, we're dealing with troubled kids here.
12:30I mean, some of these kids have got really serious problems.
12:32It's going to be absolutely imperative
12:34that there's a social worker on board.
12:40Actually, I'll...
12:42Actually, yeah, I'll be fully attached.
12:44From start to finish.
12:46You can tell the committee that I'm 100% on board.
12:50Good.
12:52Well, I don't have any more questions.
12:55I'll run this past everyone and then we'll vote.
12:59You'll make a good team.
13:01All right.
13:06Thank you for doing that.
13:09But listen, once this is up and running,
13:12I'll try and find a way to get you out of it, OK?
13:25Oh, you've been shopping.
13:27What'd you buy?
13:29No, it's Bronte's.
13:30She's been shopping for years and yet she's blowing
13:32all this money on clothes.
13:34Well, sick people need clothes too.
13:36She bought this yesterday.
13:38That was when she was telling us that she wasn't feeling well.
13:40Well, maybe she had a second wind.
13:42Maybe she's lying.
13:44Well, why would she leave all those bags out
13:46if she had something to hide?
13:49She didn't leave them out, did she?
13:51No, her door was open.
13:53You've crossed a line, Damien.
13:55Yeah, you know what, I'm glad I did.
13:57Do you realise how crazy you sound?
13:59It's embarrassing and it's unhealthy.
14:01She's lying and I'm trying to prove it.
14:03This is none of your business.
14:05Stay out of it.
14:07This is the last time we are having this conversation.
14:19Hey, coffee.
14:21You're in luck.
14:23I was about to close up.
14:25Oh, don't get any trouble for me.
14:27You all right?
14:29I really, really hate being the messenger.
14:31Again.
14:33But Irene, I'm really worried about her
14:35and you're a good friend, so.
14:37Happy to talk to her,
14:39but I need to know what this is about.
14:41The diner's still being sued.
14:43What?
14:45Irene's lying to you.
14:47Bronte's not dropped her case.
14:49Right.
14:51And there's more.
14:53Irene is talking about paying Bronte's claim
14:55with her own money.
14:59So you got Alf's message as well?
15:01Sure did.
15:03So where is Alf?
15:05I don't know.
15:07You all right?
15:09Just stuff with dinner.
15:11Nothing for you to worry about.
15:13Hey, thanks for having my back again.
15:15Buying didn't feel great.
15:17Yeah, I know.
15:19It's just until we get this over with,
15:21like I said.
15:23Ah, good, you're both here.
15:25Well, the meeting's over.
15:27And?
15:29Congratulations, your program got up.
15:31Really?
15:33Yep.
15:35How did that happen?
15:37Well, the committee aren't stupid.
15:39Well, not all the time, anyway.
15:41They do know a good idea when they see one.
15:43Alf, that's great, thank you.
15:45Thank you for your help.
15:47Yeah, well, I'm not sure how we would have gone
15:49without Harper's involvement,
15:51but now it's over to you.
15:53Good luck, eh?
15:55Sorry, I forgot.
16:00It's fine.
16:04You get a staff discount, right?
16:06Yes, but that is for me.
16:08You know, the staff.
16:10Minor details.
16:12Yeah, maybe this job was a bad idea.
16:14Oh, no, do not say that.
16:16No quitting allowed.
16:18Yeah, how's your first day going?
16:20So far, so good.
16:22I'm going to go check on that discount for you, sir.
16:25I can get used to this.
16:27Bossing Aiden around,
16:29having a weight on me without any consequences.
16:31What?
16:33I'm just not sure why you need to be such a pig.
16:36Whoa, where did that come from?
16:38I'm sorry, it's just,
16:40ever since Marley's brother left,
16:42I'm trying to figure out whether I'm the one
16:44that makes bad choices when it comes to men,
16:46or if all men are idiots.
16:48Wait, was I one of your bad choices?
16:50Were you the idiot?
16:52I suppose you two are tolerable.
16:59He's not going to hang around here forever.
17:01Good.
17:03I haven't seen you crush this hard in ages.
17:05You should just go and talk to him,
17:07or at the very least put him out of his misery.
17:09You know what? You're right.
17:15Finally.
17:17Felicity.
17:19You ready for that cocktail?
17:21I'm flattered,
17:23but it's not going to happen.
17:25You're giving up on me?
17:27But we hardly know each other.
17:30I really don't want to.
17:32Then why have you been checking me out all afternoon?
17:37Now I know how you felt earlier.
17:39Rejectified.
17:41Oh.
17:43I reckon that makes us even.
17:45How about
17:47we start over?
17:48As equals.
17:51Equals?
17:55No.
18:01Sorry.
18:03I tried my best.
18:05Never say never.
18:07Never say never?
18:18In case she changes her mind.
18:30Irene, is there something that you've forgotten to tell me?
18:33Uh, I don't think so.
18:35It's just a small, minute detail that I kind of need to know.
18:38You never asked Bronte to withdraw her legal action, did you?
18:41You lied to me.
18:43I've got it all under control, Leah.
18:45But Leah, I'm sorting it.
18:47Oh, you know, I've heard how you're sorting it.
18:49What are you thinking?
18:51I'm thinking that you need to mind your own business.
18:53I am minding my business.
19:05You killed it today.
19:07And
19:09pretty good results with your tips too.
19:11Thank you very much.
19:13What, you're not even going to check it?
19:15Oh, what's that?
19:17Poster.
19:21You got his number?
19:23Really?
19:25I wanted to help.
19:27Stop it or I'll fire you.
19:29Oh, no, come on.
19:31Talk to me.
19:33What is the problem?
19:35The guy I hooked up with turned out to be Tana's lawyer.
19:37Okay, well next time just do a background check before you get necky.
19:41Look, my life is simple right now.
19:44And I don't like it.
19:46You'll probably just find my feet again.
19:48So you're scared?
19:53No.
19:55Then what's the problem?
20:02Do you think Irene hates me?
20:04I don't think she hates you, but you haven't done yourself any favours.
20:07I'm just trying to help her.
20:09I know, but sometimes you just have to stay out of it.
20:15Oh, goodie.
20:17Not my top choice of company right now.
20:21My sister wants me to apologise.
20:24Waiting?
20:26No, I don't regret it.
20:28I'd do it again in a heartbeat.
20:30Are you kidding?
20:32No, I was trying to protect you.
20:34I'm sorting it.
20:36I said I would pay Bronte with my own money and I will.
20:38You didn't need to run off to Leah Dobbin.
20:41Okay, do you have any idea how you would actually do that?
20:43Not that it is any of your business.
20:46But I have spoken to the bank and I am remortgaging the house.
20:50What?
20:52Because then maybe Bronte might stand half a chance of surviving.
21:04Is this an intervention?
21:06What for?
21:07Your obsession with Bronte?
21:09Okay, so you're going to gang up on me instead of looking and seeing what's in front of you?
21:11How could you do this to me?
21:13She is lying to Irene and everyone else so she can take their money.
21:15Wait, do you have anything to prove that?
21:17Why would I lie?
21:19She needs our support, not more obstacles.
21:21Leah and I are going to give you $50,000.
21:24Sweetheart.
21:26And it's all fake.
21:28It's all fake.
21:30It's all fake.
21:32It's all fake.
21:34Yeah?
21:36Prove it.
