00:00Hey, that's my car, hey, stop!
00:10What's going on?
00:11Someone just stole my car.
00:12Did you steal a ute this morning?
00:14Why are you even asking me that?
00:16Old habits die hard, eh?
00:17Go to hell, Marley.
00:18I don't need to steal a car to get money, little brother.
00:21I've got money.
00:228K, count it.
00:25What have you done?
00:26I've never even heard of benzene.
00:28Better get into the diner's water supply.
00:30More importantly, how many people have we poisoned?
00:32Trust me, she's a total pushover.
00:35Oh my God, are you all right?
00:41I think so.
00:43This dizziness, does it happen very often?
00:46To be honest, it's starting to happen more.
00:47Bronte, I know you said there was nothing more that can be done for you.
00:51I know what you're going to say, and there isn't, at least not here anyway.
00:54There's an experimental treatment that they've started over in Canada, but it'd be close
00:58to $100,000.
00:59Poor Justin.
01:00He was so embarrassed.
01:01Yeah, so anyway, I'm going to have to charge him for wasting my time.
01:10Seriously?
01:11No, dude.
01:12Of course not.
01:13I was just checking to see if you were listening.
01:14Sorry.
01:15I'm just, I'm trying to get on to Dana.
01:16She's been so busy at the hospital.
01:17Any updates on how John and Marilyn are going?
01:18Well, if she ever gets a chance to reply to me, I'll let you know.
01:20Speaking of partners going missing in action, where's Marley?
01:21I thought he was taking this lesson.
01:22Uh, he asked if I could cover for him.
01:23How come?
01:24I don't know.
01:25It sounded like something pretty urgent came up.
01:26Huh.
01:27So, I'm guessing all the stuff you said about the Allen's thinking you snitched is all just
01:28rubbish, eh?
01:29Well, I couldn't really turn up here and tell you that I've got 8K of theirs, and they're
01:30filthy on it now, could I?
01:31Well, I don't think so.
01:32I mean, I don't think so.
01:33I don't think so.
01:34I don't think so.
01:35I don't think so.
01:36I don't think so.
01:37I don't think so.
01:38I don't think so.
01:39I don't think so.
01:40I don't think so.
01:41You said that you weren't involved in anything dodgy.
01:42Nothing bad.
01:43Well, it ain't good.
01:44Look, it's not that big of a deal.
01:45I needed the money, so I borrowed it.
01:46You borrowed it.
01:47What for?
01:48The trial in Queensland.
01:49Once I get signed with the NRL contract, I'll pay the Allen's back every cent.
01:50You are deluded if you think they're going to let this go.
01:51I already told you it's a loan.
01:52That they didn't agree to.
01:53I'm not a loan.
01:54I'm a loan.
01:55I'm a loan.
01:56I'm a loan.
01:57I'm a loan.
01:58I'm a loan.
01:59I'm a loan.
02:00I'm a loan.
02:01I'm a loan.
02:02I'm a loan.
02:03I'm a loan.
02:04I'm a loan.
02:05You are deluded if you think they're going to let this go.
02:06I already told you it's a loan.
02:07That they didn't agree to.
02:08Okay.
02:09Okay.
02:10I hear you.
02:11Do you?
02:12You have rocked up to my house with a bag of stolen money, belonging to a family of low-life
02:13thugs, putting me and my housemates in danger.
02:14How stupid could you get?
02:15Your housemates don't need to know.
02:16I'm not a loan.
02:17I'm a loan.
02:18I'm a loan.
02:19I'm a loan.
02:20I'm a loan.
02:21I'm a loan.
02:22I'm a loan.
02:23I'm a loan.
02:24I'm a loan.
02:25I'm a loan.
02:26I'm a loan.
02:27I'm a loan.
02:28I'm a loan.
02:29I'm a loan.
02:30I'm a loan.
02:32My girlfriend's a cop.
02:43Don't worry, Dom.
02:44Away from you.
02:50Irene hasn't been here.
02:51What do you expect me to do?
02:55There's a lot going on.
02:56If I push too hard, I might spook her.
02:58If I push too hard, I might spook her.
03:00Just let me suss out where things are at.
03:02I've got to go.
03:03Hey.
03:04Honeymita.
03:06How are you?
03:07Good as gold.
03:09They finally worked out what the problem is and they said I'm good to come home.
03:13I hate that you had to stay in a motel because of me.
03:15Love, your health is the most important thing.
03:18I couldn't live with myself if I'd made you any worse.
03:21You've got enough on your plate.
03:24So how are you?
03:25Good.
03:26Yeah.
03:29Pain's a bit worse.
03:32Oh, love.
03:33Have you spoken to your doctor?
03:35Can they give you anything?
03:36I just got off the phone, actually, but what can they say other than take more pain relief?
03:42I'm so sorry.
03:43I'm just so sick of them offering up this clinical trial in Canada as my only option.
03:48I still don't get why they can't offer you some financial assistance.
03:52They offer it to me, they have to offer it to everyone, right?
03:55Well, I haven't given up on the idea of getting you to Canada.
03:59That's lovely of you, but haven't you got enough on your plate?
04:02How's the diner?
04:04Yeah, well, they finally worked out that contaminated water pipes was what was making everybody sick.
04:09Well, that wasn't in the newspaper article, only that the diner was to blame.
04:13Yeah, I know.
04:14They went real hard on us.
04:16But right now I am more worried about the sick people.
04:19Two of my best mates are still in the hospital.
04:21That's not your fault.
04:23Thanks, darling.
04:25I'll make you a cup of tea. You look like you could use it.
04:27Hey, you're not supposed to be waiting on me.
04:29Besides, we need to work out how to get you to Canada.
04:32I think I can manage to put the kettle on.
04:36Thanks, darling. Thank you.
04:38I might give Leah a ring, actually, see if there's any updates.
04:42Uh, Leah, that's your business partner, right?
04:45Yeah, yeah.
04:46So she's back?
04:47Yeah, last night.
04:48Great.
04:54Well, the day's definitely looking up now.
04:58Is it?
05:00You're right.
05:02You know, out of all of us kids, he's just had it the easiest.
05:07What are you talking about?
05:09Oh, forget it.
05:14Have you and Marley had a fight or something?
05:19You know what I think?
05:21How about we kick our date off right now?
05:24The gig doesn't start till eight.
05:26So this will be the warm-up.
05:27Okay, well, I have work, I look up.
05:29Do you have any boards to bring in or any classes to run?
05:33No.
05:34So then you're done.
05:36And this way you get to have me for longer.
05:38You're not about to say no to that, are you?
05:42Can I ever be afraid to risk it all again?
05:48Unless you'll be there to catch me when I'm gone.
05:51Come on, then.
05:52I know things are a little crazy at the moment, but I just wanted to stop by and see if you're alright.
05:55Thanks, love.
05:56Well, I'm not sick.
05:57That's the main thing.
05:58What about you?
05:59I hear you had to get tested.
06:01Yeah, no, it's all good.
06:03Oh, I can't believe the diner was at fault.
06:06You must be Brontë.
06:08Oh, I'm so sorry.
06:09Pardon my manners.
06:10Brontë, this is a friend of mine, Xander.
06:13Hi.
06:14Lovely to meet you.
06:15You too.
06:16Brontë's staying with me for a while.
06:18Cool.
06:19Vacation?
06:20Yeah, yeah.
06:21When the doctors tell you there's nothing more they can do, you may as well spend the time you have left in paradise.
06:27Black humor.
06:28It's a coping mechanism.
06:30Right.
06:31Well, you're not wrong about Summer Bay, but sorry for whatever's going on.
06:35It's an autoimmune disease with a very long name, and I clearly haven't figured out how to tell people yet.
06:40It's all good.
06:41I don't know how much Dana's told you, but Brontë and I met in the city.
06:46Nice.
06:47Well, if you need anything, my flatmate's a doctor.
06:49Oh, cool.
06:51But I'm actually up to my eyeballs in doctors right now.
06:53Of course.
06:54Well, if you change your mind, just let me know.
06:55Yeah, I will.
06:56Thanks.
06:57Hey.
06:58You alright, love?
06:59Yeah, yeah, yeah.
07:00Just feeling a bit sick.
07:02Sorry.
07:03Excuse me.
07:06It's intense.
07:08Oh, love, you're not wrong.
07:22He's us.
07:24Um, I really don't feel right about this.
07:28I should at least let Marley know where I am.
07:30It's Marley's shop.
07:31Why doesn't he know it?
07:32Well, I told him I'd be there.
07:34Sucks to be you, mate.
07:36Okay.
07:39What's going on?
07:42Nothing for you to worry about.
07:43How about I get us another drink?
07:44How about you answer the question?
07:46All of a sudden, you are so down on Marley.
07:49Did something happen?
07:51I guess.
07:53I'm just sick of him always getting his own way.
07:55Marley has worked really hard for what he's got here.
07:59He has.
08:01Are you saying you know him better than I do?
08:03It's like a dozen stories.
08:04Yes, you're right.
08:05But for what it's worth, I don't think you're being very fair to your brother.
08:09You can think whatever you like.
08:13Where are you going?
08:14I didn't come here to join the Marley and fan club.
08:16Okay, well, we'll talk about something else.
08:17Date's over.
08:18I'm going to go to the gym instead.
08:20What about the gig?
08:23Poor kid's got no one to support her through all this.
08:26And there's really no hope for her?
08:29Well, there's this trial.
08:31Well, what kind of trial?
08:32Is it like a drug alternative therapy?
08:34I've got no clue, love.
08:36But it's in Canada and it costs a flippin' fortune.
08:39You need to be careful with those overseas clinical trials.
08:42Sometimes they promise the world, but they're just a scam.
08:44Yeah, well, I don't know.
08:46I don't know.
08:47I don't know.
08:49Sometimes they promise the world, but they're just a scam.
08:51Yeah, well, the specialist has recommended this, apparently.
08:55Oh, love.
08:56Come sit down.
08:57Sorry.
08:58Don't be silly.
09:01Can I get you anything?
09:02Yeah, water would be great.
09:05Irene was just telling me about these overseas clinical trials.
09:08If you know the name of it, I can get my flatmate to have a look at it.
09:11Thank you, but I've actually done a ton of research.
09:14Okay, no problem.
09:15Love, Xander's not being nosy.
09:17He was a paramedic.
09:19Oh, right.
09:20It's really nice of you to want to help out, but it's actually not necessary.
09:24I'm never going to get there.
09:26I can't afford it.
09:28You know what?
09:29I'm just going to go lie down.
09:32It was nice to meet you.
09:34You too.
09:44What's all that?
09:45A list of all the things that have been done.
09:49Full floor to ceiling, wash down, stove, sinks, fridges were disinfected.
09:55The health department's got to be happy with that.
09:58Yeah, I hope so.
09:59You're not sure?
10:00No, I am.
10:02Leah, there's not a pipe, not a square inch of this place that hasn't been scrubbed or replaced.
10:06I know.
10:07So, what's wrong?
10:09John's still in hospital.
10:10So is Marilyn.
10:11Other customers got sick.
10:13And they're being treated.
10:15Right, and you're here making sure that it never happens again.
10:17So, call the department of health, or call whoever it is that you have to, and clear a path for this place to be reopened.
10:24You have been sitting by my side, dealing with this all day.
10:28Don't you have better things to be doing?
10:30What better things than hanging out with my wife?
10:33Go on, make those calls.
10:41Here is to the worst first date ever.
10:45But at least I get to hang out with you, so that's a plus.
10:47Still, I can't believe my lucre just bailed on you.
10:50I know, and I was really looking forward to that gig tonight too.
10:54Did he say what was going on?
10:58Has Marley said anything to you?
10:59No, no.
11:01But I might have a bit of an idea.
11:04Yeah?
11:06Marley might have told him I'm a cop.
11:09Why would that matter?
11:10Well, it's a long story, and it's not really mine to tell.
11:13I was about to go on a date with this guy, so I'd really like to know.
11:16It's nothing to worry about. It's ancient history, that's all.
11:21Well, if you were right, it's really knocked our lucre for six.
11:26He's so down on Marley.
11:29Yeah, no, Bronte's really nice. She's not that nice, but like...
11:32Oi, oi, is that Dana?
11:33Yeah.
11:34Can you ask how John and Maz are, please?
11:36Rose wants to know how John and Maz are. Actually, so do I.
11:40Apparently they're really well. Um, as I was saying, Bronte seems cool.
11:44Not really.
11:45John and Maz?
11:46Yeah, and the others who got sick.
11:49Are you sure I have nothing to worry about besides lucre?
11:54What?
11:56You like him.
11:58He's hot.
12:10Hey.
12:12What do you want?
12:14I need a talk.
12:16How'd you find me?
12:18It's hard to hide in a place like this.
12:21Yeah, well, you came in for a lecture.
12:24You can save it.
12:25Don't give me attitude, OK?
12:28You're the one who put stolen money into my house.
12:32You're the one who shacked up with a cop.
12:34OK.
12:35What did you tell her?
12:37Nothing.
12:39You know I wouldn't do that to you.
12:41Now can we talk about the real issue here?
12:43The money?
12:44Look, I'm trying to make something of myself here.
12:46This is a real opportunity for me.
12:48I know you want to believe that.
12:50But the moment has passed.
12:52You're not listening to me.
12:53All of the mistakes you have made are because of this ridiculous dream.
12:56You need to let it go.
12:57You'll see.
12:58Once I get through with this trial and get signed up with the team.
13:00It's not going to happen.
13:01It will happen.
13:02Happen?
13:05You just watch.
13:07You'll be eaten in those words.
13:10You keep going the way you're going.
13:12You're going to destroy your life completely.
13:21Aluka, wait!
13:23Hey!
13:24Where are you going?
13:26What do you care?
13:33Ah!
13:42Was that about me?
13:43No.
13:44Marley, come on.
13:45Kirby already told me you two are fighting.
13:47So if it's not about me being a cop, then what?
13:50It's complicated.
13:51He's making some dumb decisions, that's all.
13:54Wait, what are you talking about?
13:55Don't ask any questions, okay?
13:57Are you seriously not going to tell me?
13:58If I could, I would.
13:59Marley, wait, wait, wait.
14:00Wait, wait.
14:02Should I be worried?
14:04I'm sorting it.
14:05I promise.
14:13It's me again.
14:14Hey, love.
14:15I was just about to head to the diner.
14:17Is everything okay?
14:18Yeah, well, I hope so.
14:20Poor Leah has been there by herself all day.
14:22It's about time I showed up.
14:24Hey.
14:25Hey.
14:26How are you feeling?
14:27A little bit nauseous, but I'm okay.
14:28Well, I asked the chef at work to cook you up something that might help.
14:33Well, I'm leaving you in capable hands.
14:35I'll see you later.
14:36See ya.
14:38Hey, listen, I'm sorry if what I said earlier about the clinical trial upset you.
14:42Oh, no, no, no.
14:43You're fine.
14:44It didn't.
14:45It's just sometimes it's hard to talk about when I know I can't get there.
14:49Well, I was thinking maybe you could do a crowdfunding page.
14:54Oh, I've never begged for money in my life.
14:57No, it's not begging.
14:58I mean, most people genuinely want to help out if it's for a good cause.
15:01Yeah, yeah, totally.
15:02It's just that I'm...
15:04Yeah, I'm not really comfortable with it.
15:06Even if it'll help you get to Canada?
15:10Uh...
15:12I don't even know where to start.
15:14Well, I'll help you.
15:16Come on.
15:17What have you got to lose?
15:21We've got the all claim.
15:22Signed, sealed and delivered.
15:24Oh, I don't believe it.
15:26What a relief.
15:28Oh, love, I'm so sorry I wasn't here to help her out.
15:30It's okay.
15:31You're here now and I had a very handsome helper.
15:33Really?
15:34Who?
15:36Justin, I owe you big time.
15:38What are friends for?
15:40Okay, we have a lot to organise before we can open tomorrow.
15:43Right, what do you want me to do?
15:44Well, all the stock was thrown out, so we need an urgent stock order in and I will get onto the menus.
15:48Right, I'm on it.
15:50Don't worry, I'm going.
15:52You think it's a washed up joke, there's no point in sticking around.
15:54I don't even think that.
15:56So now I'm deaf as well as stupid, is that right?
15:59I'm not trying to hurt your feelings.
16:03But you are too old to be starting pro in the NRL.
16:07Who made you the big expert, hmm?
16:09No one.
16:12But sometimes you have to be honest with the ones you trust.
16:14No one.
16:17But sometimes you have to be honest with the ones you love.
16:21And I do love you.
16:24You're my big brother.
16:28But I'm not going to stand back and watch you make stupid mistakes.
16:39So what about Rose?
16:42I didn't tell her anything.
16:45And I won't, I swear.
16:52What do I do now?
16:54If you've got some ideas, please, throw them at me.
17:00I don't know.
17:04We could figure it out together.
17:06Well, with this face and this body, surely supermodels got to be out there.
17:15I suppose so.
17:25What would I even call it?
17:27Just keep it simple. Help me raise money. Clinical trial Canada.
17:30I don't know. It feels really awkward to write about myself.
17:34Well, people want to hear your story, so I think we should make a video.
17:37Got to grab their attention.
17:38That does not feel right.
17:40Have you ever donated to one of these before?
17:41Of course I have.
17:42Why?
17:44Because I wanted to help.
17:46Because you connected with the story, right?
17:50I guess.
17:51So just speak from the heart. Tell people about yourself.
17:54No, no, no, please. What if I'm terrible?
17:57Then I want to upload it.
18:00I don't mean to sound like I don't trust you, but how do I know you'll keep your word?
18:07How about I film it on your phone? That way you have control of when it's uploaded.
18:12Thanks.
18:13Okay, let's go. Come on, get up.
18:16Okay.
18:18How do I figure this? There we go.
18:21When you're ready.
18:22Okay.
18:24Hi, I'm Bronte. I have a pretty rare autoimmune disease and I just found out that I don't have very long to live.
18:32I need your help.
18:34No, that's cheesy.
18:35No, no, it's great. Keep going.
18:36Okay.
18:37So, it was a couple of years ago I got my initial diagnosis. I was feeling kind of off.
18:44So I went to the doctor and now I'm rambling.
18:47It's fine. Keep going.
18:54The doctor ran some tests and then I got the news that nobody ever wants to hear.
19:02You okay?
19:03Mm-hmm.
19:05Hey, Bronte, hey.
19:06Hey.
19:07Bronte.
19:13You happy?
19:15Yes, I am.
19:16Good news. Maz will be out of hospital in the morning and John's out of bed and feeling so much better.
19:22Oh, that is really good to hear.
19:24So, what's next?
19:25Nothing.
19:26You're good to go.
19:27Alright, see you bright and early in the morning.
19:29Thanks, love.
19:31Night.
19:32Night.
19:33Night, night.
19:37Been a long day.
19:38Mm-hmm.
19:39Let's get out of here.
19:40Yeah.
19:49Well, it's up to the customers now.
20:03Oh, my God, father. Is she alright? What happened?
20:06Yeah, no, I'm fine.
20:07She collapsed.
20:08Oh, girlie. Should we be getting you to a hospital?
20:13I've looked her over and from what I can tell she's fine, but I would be booking in to see a specialist.
20:18What are they going to tell me that I don't already know?
20:21Any loss of consciousness needs to be looked at.
20:24He's right, love.
20:26Hey, I know what it's like. I know how scared you are.
20:33It just feels like it's getting worse for much of us, doesn't it, you know?
20:38There's so many things I have yet to do.
20:44I'm not ready. I'm not ready to die, right?
20:56I should get ready for work.
20:58No. What am I going to play with?
21:01Come with me.
21:02Mackenzie won't be working.
21:04Seriously, I just, I don't know how you can be in the same room with her.
21:06What are you doing here?
21:07You weren't dressed at all.
21:09Hey.
21:10I thought she wasn't working. So did I.
21:12Eden, do you think she can just show up whenever she wants and pretend like nothing ever happened?
21:16Well, it is her restaurant. She kind of can.
21:18I mean, does she think you're just going to forget what happened?
21:21Well, it is her restaurant. She kind of can.
21:23I mean, does she think you're just going to forget what happened?
