00:00I'm just saying a heads up that you were dating Nelson would have been nice, that's all.
00:11You're with Stevie.
00:12You're not a thing.
00:13I just can't give you what you need.
00:16I just think it's best we call it a day.
00:19It's time for you to get back to work.
00:21And you never know, they might actually understand.
00:24And even if they don't, I'm sure they'll be very glad to have you back.
00:28I know I'm just the guy that works in the bar, but I mean, you guys missing in action is really affecting everyone else.
00:34That's unfair.
00:35Yeah, because we're here right now, aren't we?
00:36But this is the first time you've been in the same room for a very long time.
00:39I just, I really thought that my friends would at least try and send my wanted in.
00:43I saw you and Mac out on the balcony before.
00:45Yeah, she was upset.
00:47Let me guess, everyone's being so mean.
00:50That brings Xander into this. He was being a friend. Obviously you've forgotten what that looks like.
00:54But you're not my friend.
00:55Well, clearly.
00:56Guys, stop. I'm not taking anyone's side. So can you both just shut up?
01:00Xander, you cannot talk to us like that.
01:02What? Are you going to fire me?
01:05Don't bother. I quit.
01:17Let's go.
01:18Yep.
01:19Nope.
01:21Obviously our designated driver has to catch up.
01:24And thank you for offering to, by the way.
01:26Yeah, I should have just let you both walk from Yavi Creek.
01:28You love us too much.
01:29You said one drink at the pub and then home.
01:32Doesn't sound like me.
01:35What?
01:36Cash is still working.
01:38Problems with scheduling, which is code for Stevie dramas.
01:42Sorry.
01:43No, it's cool. It's cool.
01:46You know what you need?
01:47What?
01:48More beer.
01:49Good idea. Let's go.
01:50Not for me. I am going to go hang out with Kirby.
01:55Oh, hang on.
02:00Going to the cinema with Marley and Rose.
02:02So, you are stuck with us.
02:07Fine.
02:10But I am ordering pizza to sober you both up and we are not pulling an all-nighter, okay?
02:16Yes, we are.
02:18And cue music.
02:25I am so enjoying this.
02:30Tonight couldn't have been more perfect.
02:33Not ever yet.
02:36So, what time did Theo say he is coming home?
02:39I don't know, but when I checked in with him, it sounded like he was having a blast.
02:44After all of his hard work, he deserves to have some fun.
02:47But he has been out a lot, though.
02:49I think Remy is still struggling and Theo has been a good mate.
02:52He has come such a long way, hasn't he?
02:54Yeah, he really has turned things around.
02:57But I think he is going to have a sore head in the morning because I don't think he is coming home any time soon.
03:02Right.
03:03Well, we should make the most of it, then.
03:06Good one.
03:07I can't believe you dumped a movie star.
03:09That is wild.
03:11Whatever, it's your turn.
03:14How about we dial back on the ex-girlfriend talk?
03:18For the last time, she wasn't my girlfriend.
03:22She was my girlfriend.
03:23So, I'm sorry.
03:24I'm sorry.
03:25I'm sorry.
03:26I'm sorry.
03:27I'm sorry.
03:28I'm sorry.
03:29I'm sorry.
03:30I'm sorry.
03:31I'm sorry.
03:32I'm sorry.
03:33I'm sorry.
03:34She was my girlfriend.
03:36Hey, do you guys want another drink or what?
03:42I was being supportive.
03:43Yeah, you don't even know the half of it.
03:45What do you mean?
03:46He ran into Bree and Nelson post hook-up and then she rode off on the back of a motorbike.
03:52Oh.
03:55Sorry.
03:56Whatever.
03:59It's not like it's a secret anymore, anyway.
04:01Dude, it's intense.
04:02Yeah.
04:03Somebody want a pizza?
04:04Yeah!
04:05Pizza!
04:06Hey.
04:07You want a drink?
04:08Nah.
04:09I'm fine.
04:10So, you deliver pizza now?
04:12I may have used it as an excuse to finish early.
04:16Oh, you mean to get away from Mac?
04:18Oh, no!
04:19Five second rule.
04:20Oh.
04:21Oh.
04:24Where's your old place?
04:25My place?
04:26Immediately, if not soon enough.
04:30See you, boys.
04:31Have fun.
04:32Where are you going, boys?
04:33You started.
04:34Yeah, which is why I'm leaving.
04:36Whatever.
04:37More for us.
04:42How come you didn't tell me about the Bree stuff before?
04:45It's a lot.
04:46I'm fine.
04:49I'm fine.
04:55So, Xander is taking her side?
04:59That's what it looked like.
05:01I don't know.
05:02Maybe I got it wrong.
05:03Or maybe you didn't.
05:04This is not your fault, babe.
05:06It's all Mac.
05:07It doesn't really matter whose fault it was.
05:09I'm still down a bartender.
05:11Always comes back to her, doesn't it?
05:13Okay.
05:16You and me.
05:17You and me.
05:18We are in this together.
05:19I have your back, just like you have mine.
05:20Oh, yeah.
05:21Mac has done so much damage.
05:23And knowing that you are making her life miserable, it helps.
05:28I just, I do not know how you can still work there.
05:32Well, as co-owner, showing up is kind of part of the gig.
05:36Well, maybe you can sell the business and be done with her.
05:45Seriously, Xander, can you call me back?
05:48Look, I know that things got out of hand and I'm sorry, okay?
05:51Just call me.
05:58Hey.
06:04Missed you.
06:05I missed you too.
06:07Now, come, sit.
06:09Tell me everything.
06:10What's that smell?
06:12That would be dinner in the oven because I thought you might be hungry.
06:15You cooked?
06:16Chef cooked.
06:17I reheated.
06:18But I did happen to dust off a beautiful bottle of red.
06:24So, tell me, how was work?
06:26Let's talk about that later.
06:28No, no, no.
06:31I knew going back to St Christopher's would be uncomfortable, but this was way worse.
06:37Why, did you ever run in with Imogen?
06:38No, it's just a tight-knit workplace.
06:40Work gets around fast.
06:42Let me guess, people are taking sides.
06:45Turns out it's not just friends that get to do that.
06:48Judgmental looks, snide comments.
06:51And I've worked with these people for years.
06:53Trust me, I know what that's like.
06:56But you should not have to put up with it, okay?
06:59It's so unprofessional.
07:01I just can't wrap my head around it.
07:04Honestly, it's awful.
07:08I'm sorry.
07:26I'm dashing to the beat of the beat
07:28Trying to find a way out the heat
07:30I've been looking for the most of years, yeah
07:41Hey.
07:42Can we talk?
07:44So you're stalking me now?
07:46Well, you're ghosting me, so what do you expect?
07:48For you to get the hint and leave me alone?
07:50I get it, you're angry.
07:52Tell me what I can do.
07:54You can let me get a surf in before the beach closes.
07:56Okay.
07:58How do I fix this?
08:00How about sorting things out with Mac?
08:03Yeah, that's what I thought.
08:17Hey.
08:19Didn't sleep well?
08:21That's what I looked up to.
08:22No.
08:23You tossing and turning kind of gave it away.
08:26I had a lot to think about.
08:28Listen to me.
08:29All scandals run their course, okay?
08:31This won't be any different.
08:32You just have to give it some time.
08:35This isn't just about me.
08:37I need to consider my patients.
08:38They deserve a team that's focused on them,
08:40not sniping at each other.
08:42Well, maybe you should take some leave.
08:45You know, lay low, wait for things to die down.
08:47I think that's the answer.
08:48Why not?
08:50The whole time I was there, I was thinking,
08:52this was hard enough for me.
08:54What must it be like for Imogen?
08:56She's been gossiped about too,
08:58and she didn't even do anything wrong.
09:00Well, with all due respect,
09:01she was the one who told these people what happened.
09:04I know.
09:05And that's her right.
09:08Which is why I'm considering resigning from St Christopher's.
09:13Oh, come on, Levi.
09:14That is a huge decision.
09:17Yeah, well,
09:18it might be the smart thing to do,
09:20and the kindest.
09:21Imogen's life would be a lot easier without me there.
09:24Yeah, but you've invested years of hard work into that hospital.
09:27Do you really want to walk away from all of that?
09:37Good morning.
09:39Is it?
09:41You feel gruff.
09:43What are you talking about? I feel great.
09:48Are you right?
09:49You're doing that too much.
09:50Yeah, well, maybe you will think twice
09:53before railroading me into being your designated driver.
09:57Oh, so now you're trying to poison us.
09:59Peanut butter and banana smoothie with a hint of Vegemite.
10:02The perfect hangover cure.
10:03You're welcome.
10:06I need greasy food.
10:08You in?
10:09Oh, it's too much effort.
10:14Won't turn out of a takeaway, though, mate.
10:19So, what's going on with you?
10:25Last night was quite the bender.
10:29Yes, I'm still working through some stuff.
10:32You talking about Bree or Stevie?
10:35To be honest, all of the above.
10:38Seeing Bree with Nelson really kicked me in the guts.
10:42Yeah, I got that.
10:46And what about Stevie?
10:49We haven't second thoughts about ending that?
10:51You know it all, don't you?
10:55In hindsight, yes, I could have handled things better.
10:58I know it's tricky, but perhaps it's best to just put it all behind you and move on.
11:05Oh, yeah. Is that what you're doing? With your brother? Just moving on?
11:09We're not talking about me right now, are we?
11:13You want to help?
11:15Make us some coffees first, please.
11:18Sure.
11:25Candlelight champagne. Sounds romantic.
11:29It was unbelievable.
11:31Well, all's well that ends well.
11:33Okay, ladies, I'm right here.
11:35Well, not for much longer. You're going to need to scoot. We're about to get really busy.
11:38Isn't show business exciting?
11:40Oh, it seems stressful.
11:43Here he is.
11:44Hey, how was your night?
11:46Great. Mostly. I think Remy needed to blow off some steam.
11:50Right, you're paying for it now.
11:52One bacon and egg roll coming right up.
11:55It's all right, I'm going to feed you two, but then you're going to need to go.
11:58Okay, thanks, baby.
12:00Why the big hurry?
12:01Oh, they're expecting another big day. I mean, I think Alf was right. The movie being here is a nuisance.
12:06Oh, no, Mr Stewart is fully behind the movie now.
12:09Joking.
12:10Yeah, he won't hear a bad word about Stevie Marlow.
12:12Well, I guess his wife isn't stuck working round the clock because of him.
12:15Don't be a grump. You've got to support the arts.
12:18Do you know what a good cure for a hangover is? A surf.
12:21Where do you think I'm going after this?
12:23Pity they just shut down the beach for filming five minutes ago, but you keep supporting the arts.
12:28Go for it.
12:31You're really going to harass me in my own home?
12:33Whatever it takes.
12:35Just leave me alone, all right? I need to shower and you need to leave.
12:38Well, I need you to know how important you are to me and the business.
12:41You only want me back because you can't stand to work with Mac. And why is that, huh?
12:45It's between me and her. You don't have to worry about that.
12:47Go on, tell me what the actual issue is. Why does Mac seeing Levi have anything to do with you?
12:51Eden is hurting because of her brother's affair.
12:54Not your battle.
12:55She's my friend.
12:56Yeah, I get that, but this has got nothing to do with you or me.
12:58She's my partner. Everything she does affects me.
13:01This is her personal life, all right? And you're blurring the lines and you're going to ruin your business because of it.
13:05Says the guy who's happy to walk away. Like you care.
13:08Your marriage fell apart and you poured your heart and soul into that restaurant.
13:12Don't go there.
13:14And you're going to let Eden's vendetta tear it apart.
13:17Are you done?
13:19You know where the door is.
13:20I have to admit, this is pretty cool.
13:39Yeah, well, I mean, it's good for business with all those extra mouths to feed.
13:44Fast tourism boost.
13:47And yes, this is also very exciting.
13:50Are you OK?
13:51I'm OK, if you're OK.
13:54Leaving St. Christopher's is the right decision.
13:57Are you sure that's what you want?
13:58It better be because I've already handed in my resignation.
14:01Are you sure, sure?
14:04I'm positive. I'm at peace with this and I hope you can be too.
14:09No, of course I support your decision. It's just, you know, you've been through so much already.
14:14It was my old life. I want a new life, fresh start here with you.
14:23Hey, Mac, do you have a sec?
14:27Hey, listen, if this is about Xander, I haven't heard from him.
14:30We need to talk about us.
14:32Yeah, OK.
14:33Yeah, OK.
14:40Look, the business is important to the both of us. I think we can agree on that.
14:47Yeah, of course.
14:48And we've both made some poor choices.
14:53Agreed, but I stand by my decision to be with Levi, regardless of your opinion.
14:59We haven't had each other's backs when it comes to our personal lives, not for a long time.
15:03But maybe when it comes to the business, we can agree to be there for one another.
15:08So, like, a fresh start?
15:11I'm game if you are.
15:18Things just got too serious too fast. Calling it off was the right decision.
15:22Well, I mean...
15:23I mean, obviously I'm not meant to be in a new relationship right now.
15:26You never...
15:27You just have to look at how I reacted to seeing Bree with someone else.
15:30Do I have to be here for this conversation?
15:34OK, so you weren't happy about it. Who would be? Everyone hopes that their ex never dates again.
15:40Yeah, but it proves my point, right?
15:41Which is?
15:42That I needed to call things with Stevie.
15:44Not my call.
15:46I've made some bad decisions.
15:47Your words, not mine.
15:49How things ended with Stevie, buying Bree, this goes on and on.
15:54Clearly, you're still getting over your ex.
15:57Maybe the whole Stevie situation was just a distraction.
16:02Or maybe it was the real deal and you tossed that away for no good reason.
16:07Not helping with my hangover, are you?
16:09OK, you need to stop getting smashed at every opportunity and figure out who you want to be with.
16:17And you need to hope that it's not too late.
16:24Why don't you take that?
16:27Get out of here.
16:28Stupid.
16:35Hey, I was going to call you later.
16:39Why, what happened?
16:41All right, all right, I'm coming.
16:47Thank you so much.
16:49What, what is this?
16:53I listened to what you had to say and I reached out to Mac.
16:56And we are here together to sort this out.
16:59And in an hour?
17:00Yeah, in an hour.
17:01OK, great.
17:04I listened to what you had to say and I reached out to Mac.
17:07And we are here together to sort this out.
17:10And in a nutshell, please come back to work.
17:13I don't know.
17:14No, don't say that.
17:15We want you.
17:17We need you.
17:18And we're sorry.
17:20And you were right.
17:21We let our personal issues affect the business.
17:24And then left you to pick up the slack, which was not cool.
17:28So where are you guys at now?
17:29You got a bit of truce or something?
17:32We haven't really put a label on it.
17:37And we can't guarantee to always agree.
17:41But when it comes to salt, we're definitely on the same page.
17:44Yeah, we're going to work together.
17:45We're going to be a team.
17:46And we really want you to be part of that.
17:48So, start over.
17:53There is something you could do.
17:55Oh, absolutely no pay rise.
17:57That's a nice smile.
17:59Have you been down to watch the filming today?
18:02No, no.
18:03I walked past.
18:04It's kind of hard to miss.
18:06I know.
18:07I saw Bree down there with her new director boyfriend.
18:10They seem like a nice couple.
18:12Mm-hmm.
18:13Is everything okay, darling?
18:15Yeah.
18:16Yeah, sorry.
18:17I just got a bit on my mind.
18:18Anything I can do?
18:19No, but thank you.
18:23Ah, here he is.
18:24The gift that keeps on giving.
18:25I was just on the phone to your wife.
18:27Is she in for coffee?
18:28Apparently, it's all over the hospital that you quit your job.
18:31Is that true?
18:33May I please have a flat white?
18:35Sure.
18:36Why am I even surprised?
18:38Given the circumstances, it was the right thing to do.
18:40Yeah, look, I really, I don't want to hear it.
18:42You just asked.
18:43Admit it.
18:44You're running away because you're too gutless to face what you've done.
18:58Woo-hoo!
19:01Oh, rifle!
19:04Woo-hoo!
19:06Oh, and action!
19:12You scrubbed up all right.
19:14Yeah.
19:15Couldn't even get a surf in because there's a lot.
19:18Yeah.
19:19You sure you want to be here?
19:21Yeah, why wouldn't I?
19:23What, are you worried you might run into Bree or her new director friend?
19:29Plus, I heard Stevie's going to be here any minute.
19:33Yeah, well, I haven't seen her.
19:35So what are you doing?
19:37Nothing.
19:41All right, I am waiting for someone.
19:43Who?
19:45Okay.
19:46I made a mistake.
19:48And if I can, I would like to fix it.
19:51So who are you waiting for?
19:53Bree or Stevie?
19:59Eden?
20:00What the hell was that?
20:02I am the one picking up the pieces with your wife, remember?
20:06I resign because it's the right thing to do for me, my patients and Imogen.
20:10Yeah, you're a real saint.
20:11Would you prefer I stay there so she has to see me every day?
20:14I get that I've upset you with the choices that I've made,
20:17but I have apologised enough.
20:19You need to get over this.
20:20Oh, so I'm the one that's in the wrong, is that it?
20:22You're acting as if the end of my marriage is all about you.
20:25And I've had enough of it.
20:26You are the one who moved to my town.
20:28Hey, you put this on me.
20:30I chose Mackenzie.
20:32And nothing you say or do is going to change that.
20:34Oh yeah, I'm well aware of that.
20:35Let's just get one thing straight.
20:37I have lived ten years without you in my life.
20:40And if I have to, I will do it again.
20:42But that is your call.
20:51The odds of a famous actress giving you a second chance?
20:53Pretty slim.
20:54I didn't mean those things I said.
20:55I don't want you in my life.
20:57No, no, no, don't Stevie me.
20:59He said that I have baggage.
21:01Go look in the mirror.
21:02The minute he sees his ex with someone else,
21:04he's like a lost puppy.
21:05Do me a favour and accept that you are way more into Remy
21:09than you care to admit.
21:10I don't give a second chance.
21:11I don't give a second chance.
21:12I don't give a second chance.
21:13I don't give a second chance.
21:14I don't give a second chance.
21:15I don't give a second chance.
21:16I don't give a second chance.
21:17I don't give a second chance.
21:18You're way more into Remy than you care to admit.
21:20I don't give a second chances.
21:21Well...
