00:00Look, I get that not everyone is going to understand, but like cutting us off and isolating
00:12us like this, we just fell in love.
00:15Can we talk?
00:16Have I not made myself clear?
00:17I'm not interested in anything you have to say.
00:19Not now, not ever.
00:20Who are you texting?
00:21Flick and Mac.
00:22They've had their eye off the ball for way too long now, so I'm doing something about
00:26it.
00:27Okay.
00:28I think that's a safe way to stay employed.
00:29Well, at this point, I don't really care.
00:31Mac, I called this meeting because we have stuff to talk about.
00:34Yes.
00:35Flick is going to be there.
00:36Okay.
00:37I will see you soon.
00:38Drama with the bosses, hey?
00:39Neither one of them is turning up for work.
00:40I'm sick of it.
00:41Oh, wait, wait, wait.
00:42You do know what's going on with Mackenzie, right?
00:43What do you mean?
00:44Oh, my goodness.
00:45Mackenzie and Levi are in a relationship.
00:46Yes.
00:47He has left his wife for her, and now he's moved in.
00:48Ma, he's got you working already?
00:49Yeah, I just took my first group lesson.
00:50How was it?
00:51It was great.
00:52A guy gave me his number.
00:53Oh, really?
00:54Yeah.
00:55It was great.
00:56How was it?
00:57It was great.
00:58A guy gave me his number.
00:59One of your students?
01:00Mm-hmm.
01:01Let's just say I really love my new job.
01:03I think we should talk about how your first shift is going.
01:06Okay.
01:07Okay, well, there's been a couple of things that haven't been ideal.
01:09Okay, like what?
01:11You're leaving now before asking me.
01:12Yeah, because I've finished my classes.
01:14We are good, right?
01:15Okay.
01:16I'll see you soon.
01:17Bye.
01:19Bye.
01:44Hello.
01:45So all action stations around here?
01:46Has it been like this all day?
01:47I just got here.
01:49Do you have any idea what this team meeting's about?
01:51Nope.
01:55I wasn't even supposed to be rusted on this afternoon.
01:56Can you just handle it?
01:57No, hey, I'm pretty sure Xander made it clear
02:00he wants to meet with the both of us.
02:01Well, he's not the boss.
02:02Felicity.
02:03Send me an email to fill me in.
02:04Okay, this is ridiculous.
02:05We have to at least try to be professional.
02:07I don't need a lecture about
02:08doing the right thing from you.
02:10Thank you very much.
02:11Okay, that's fine, then ignore me,
02:12but at least listen to what Xander has to say.
02:14Fine.
02:15There you are, guys, thanks.
02:17I just wish someone had filled me in
02:20before I called this meeting.
02:21I thought you knew.
02:22Everyone else did.
02:23Oh, yeah, I got that.
02:24Loud and clear.
02:26This is gonna be an actual night, man.
02:28Just keep it professional.
02:29I feel like the Mac and Flick.
02:31Mate, this is their business.
02:33They're lucky you're taking an interest.
02:36Not everybody takes their job as seriously as you.
02:38Maybe I should just cancel.
02:41I reckon it's a bit too late for that.
02:45Well, here we are.
02:47Yeah, and first on the agenda should be
02:49why you're suddenly calling the shots around here.
02:54I'll leave you to it.
02:58So, I know I'm just the guy that works in the bar,
03:02but, I mean, you guys missing in action
03:04is really affecting everyone else.
03:05I mean, I had three casuals ask for the day off.
03:08Okay, well, they're allowed to have sick day.
03:10Yeah, but that's the point.
03:11They're not actually sick.
03:12They're just sick.
03:13They're not actually sick.
03:14They just, they don't care
03:15because their bosses don't seem to care.
03:17That's unfair.
03:18Yeah, because we're here right now, aren't we?
03:19But this is the first time you've been in the same room
03:21for a very long time.
03:23Listen, if we're short-staffed on the bar tonight,
03:25I will help you cover.
03:27I was a rusted armband.
03:28I can stay and wait tables.
03:30Anything else you wanna talk about?
03:32I mean, that's pretty much it.
03:34Great, great.
03:35Love a short meeting.
03:36Let's get to work.
03:41It was your first lesson
03:43and you smashed it.
03:46Okay, I can see what you're doing.
03:47You're just trying to fish for confidence now, aren't you?
03:50Okay, look, the trick to surfing is
03:54once you catch your first wave,
03:55you actually have to go out and celebrate.
03:57Kirby, can you wind it up?
03:59No, I'm being serious.
04:01That's the rule.
04:02Kirby.
04:04Grab a bunch of mates, head to the nearest pub.
04:09Yeah, no, I'm so sorry, but we're totally booked up.
04:12Yeah, thanks anyway.
04:13Okay, bye-bye.
04:15There you go.
04:16Thank you so much.
04:16You know, with the film crew staying here,
04:18we could rent every caravan out 10 times over.
04:21And yet you're still here with all the admins of the club.
04:24I'm not making a dent in it, I tell you.
04:25You know, I've been talking to Sonia
04:26about Tane's court case that's coming up
04:28and I can't stop thinking about it.
04:30Well, it's next week, isn't it?
04:31Yeah, and I don't agree with what he did,
04:33but I just don't think he deserves to go to jail.
04:36Let's hope it doesn't come to that.
04:37I had to park a mile away.
04:38That film crew has really taken over the whole place.
04:41Not to mention the fans have disappeared everywhere.
04:43Yes, well, it's less parking since the filming started, John.
04:46There he is.
04:47Nice to see you too, John.
04:49Is that what I think it is?
04:50May I present you with your marriage certificate?
04:53Congratulations.
04:54This is fantastic.
04:55That's the first one of those I've ever handed over.
04:57Hey, Leah.
04:58No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
04:59It's a...
05:00Don't tell her.
05:01I want her to be surprised.
05:02All right, bud.
05:02John, take a number.
05:03We're flat out.
05:04All good, all good, don't worry.
05:06Sorry, mate, I didn't realise.
05:07That's all right.
05:08I just...
05:09I wouldn't make a big deal of it.
05:10Yeah, well, I'll leave it in your capable hands.
05:12Thanks, John.
05:13So, you'll be due for your break soon, wouldn't you?
05:16Justin, just because you have the day off
05:17does not mean I'm gonna slack off too.
05:19Oh, so when are you gonna finish work?
05:21When this film stops shooting
05:22and everything goes back to normal.
05:24Actually, you know what?
05:24If you wanna make good use of your time,
05:26unpack the stuff that I just brought in.
05:34Since we're both here,
05:35I thought it might be good to go through the paperwork
05:36for the liquor licensing renewal.
05:38Yeah, when things slow down,
05:39which might not be for a while.
05:41Hey, I can come and find you later.
05:42Fine.
05:44Good.
05:48Well, we haven't killed each other yet, I see.
05:51It's like watching two funnel webs in a jar.
05:53Told you so.
05:54No, not soon enough.
05:56You just have to learn how to manage them better.
05:58Oh yeah, one small problem.
06:00I'm not the boss.
06:00So what?
06:01I mean, I know it's hard working with friends,
06:04but look at me and Marley.
06:05We had our hiccups at the beginning,
06:07but we sorted them out.
06:09You just gotta be straight with one another.
06:13Marley, you got a minute?
06:21Mr. Stewart, I really don't have time for a chat.
06:24No, this won't take long.
06:25I saw you having a bit of trouble with young Kirby.
06:29That obvious?
06:31Running your own business can be a bit tricky.
06:34You've gotta remember that you're the captain of this ship.
06:37Yeah, I know.
06:40If the skipper starts letting the crew make the rules,
06:42then what you've got is a mutant.
06:44That's the problem.
06:45I've never really had a crew before.
06:47You know, she's my maid
06:48and a really good friend of my girlfriend's.
06:51All the more reason to lay down the law.
06:53You've gotta be firm, but fair.
06:55I've tried.
06:57Obviously, you're not being clear enough, mate.
07:01The crew hasn't crossed any lines
07:03if the skipper hasn't drawn them in the first place.
07:08So, you and Levi, how's that going?
07:15I mean, obviously, you don't have to tell me about your personal life.
07:18I wasn't about to.
07:19Don't waste your time, Xander.
07:21Mac doesn't need to justify her decisions to anyone.
07:23Isn't that right?
07:24I was just trying to make conversation.
07:26How about we all just concentrate on our work?
07:28God forbid anyone calls you out on what you've done.
07:30Table ten?
07:31Yep.
07:32Table ten?
07:33Yep.
07:36Sorry.
07:51OK, yeah, I'll tell her.
07:53All right.
07:54Leah, I think we're gonna need some more lasagnas.
07:57I don't think we're gonna have enough for dinner.
07:59Why are we running low?
08:00Well, all the crew that are staying at the caravan park
08:02like to have a nice hot meal when they're finished filming.
08:04I will deal with it.
08:05OK.
08:07How'd it go, darling?
08:08Um, I'm just having trouble concentrating.
08:11Look, I'm wondering if I should go to court and support Tony.
08:14Oh, well, you can never have too many people in your corner.
08:16Yeah, but maybe he doesn't want a big crowd.
08:18There's only one way to find out.
08:20You know, if I ask him, he's just gonna say, don't bother.
08:23Why don't you talk to his mates, see what they're doing?
08:27So, are you done for the day?
08:28Uh, no, cos when I finish cleaning up here,
08:30I need to get back to the diner.
08:31Well, surely one of your casuals can do that for you.
08:33What part of flat out do you not understand?
08:35OK, all right.
08:36Well, so when are you gonna be home?
08:38Late, if I even get home.
08:40I've got to get up early again tomorrow morning.
08:42I might as well just sleep on the diner floor and be done with it.
08:50Hey, I really want to try and get this licence renewal sorted.
08:53I told you, I'll have a look at her when I get a sec.
08:55Look, how about I stay in the bar and make you jump on the floor
08:57and you can get it done now?
08:58Yeah, perfect. Look, it won't take you long.
09:00Which is why I can wait until we close up tonight.
09:02Hey. Hey.
09:04Um, if you're here to eat, I'm sorry, we're really busy.
09:07No, no, no, it's OK.
09:08I just wanted to come and check in and see how Tali's going.
09:11Oh, yeah, he's hanging in there, trying to remain positive.
09:14Right, and how's that working out for him?
09:16Well, Tali's a realist, he knows the odds are against him,
09:19but he actually has a really good way out.
09:21Oh, that's great.
09:23Now, listen, does he have anyone going into court to support him?
09:26Harper and Dana will be there. Right.
09:28But they have to testify against him.
09:31What? Are you kidding me?
09:33Oh, poor Tali, that's ridiculous.
09:35Excuse me.
09:40Hey. Hey.
09:42What are you doing here?
09:43Oh, like, you know, things really, uh, quietened down outside,
09:46so I just thought I'd come back here.
09:50I'm happy to take over if you want to pop home and see Justin.
09:53Why would I do that? He's not a child.
09:55He seemed like he really wanted to spend some time with you.
09:58Are you OK? Because you're a bit short with him.
10:01Yes, I was. I'm stressed and I took it out on him. Not fair.
10:06OK, so go home for half an hour and I'll take care of this here.
10:09Justin would have forgotten it even happened.
10:20I know how worried you must be about Tanit.
10:23In other words, I'm human. We wouldn't be scared for him.
10:26Yeah, no, I know, but it's a bit more loaded for you.
10:29Just don't blame yourself, that's all I'm saying.
10:35Excuse me?
10:37I just... I just know that you felt responsible
10:40because of what happened between you two about the whole baby thing.
10:44Thank you for throwing that in my face.
10:47No, no. Why would you even mention that?
10:49Because I saw how upset you were before.
10:51And you thought you'd make it worse?
10:53Maybe you can talk about this another time.
10:55I just think that we should be kinder to ourselves
10:57about the decisions we've made in the past.
10:59OK, I see.
11:00So you're using me to make yourself feel better
11:03about your bad decisions. No, that's not it.
11:05Don't compare what happened to Tanit and me to what you've done.
11:08I wasn't.
11:10You destroyed someone else's marriage.
11:13It's not the same thing.
11:15No matter how many times you tell yourself it is.
11:17I'm sorry I said anything.
11:19That makes two of us.
11:29Hey.
11:31Have you got a minute so that we can talk?
11:34Ha-ha! Sorry, I couldn't help myself.
11:37Yeah. Thanks.
11:39I actually came here to talk to you about respect and love.
11:44I came here to talk to you about respect at the workplace.
11:46About what? You don't think I respect you?
11:48You just put the hose on me.
11:50Marley, it was a bit of water. Come on.
11:52I'm still your boss.
11:54And we don't do that stuff at work.
11:56Yeah, but I wasn't hosing you as my boss.
11:59I was hosing you as my mate.
12:01What? We can't be friends anymore? Is that what you're saying?
12:04The workplace is like...
12:07a ship.
12:09There can only be one captain.
12:11What?
12:12If the crew just do what they want all the time,
12:14then the skipper can't.
12:16Okay, what are you talking about?
12:17You.
12:19Being unprofessional.
12:21Okay, is this about the whole not gossiping thing?
12:25Because I promise I won't say another word about Mackenzie
12:27if that's going to make you happy.
12:29If someone else was your boss, would you speak to them like this?
12:31If it was anyone else, I wouldn't be here.
12:34I'm doing you a favour, remember?
12:42I'm trying to break your heart.
12:47I know you like to keep your cards close to your chest,
12:49so at the risk of getting my head bitten off,
12:52are you okay?
12:54Well, I've got to say, it's a nice change
12:56from someone telling me what a terrible person I am.
12:59Yeah, that was pretty philomorphic.
13:01Yeah.
13:03I know I've hurt people,
13:05and I'm definitely not proud of it.
13:10Anyway, sorry, I don't know why I'm telling you this.
13:12I'm happy to listen.
13:15I just, I really thought that my friends
13:17would at least try and see my point of view.
13:19Yeah, that must be tough.
13:23Or maybe they just weren't even real friends to begin with.
13:40Good call on the expert boo.
13:42I tell you, we would have run out by now.
13:44Oh, look, your phone's nearly dead.
13:46Do you want me to charge it up for you?
13:48Oh, I guess, sure.
13:49You're pretty busy, so you won't be using it.
13:51Yeah, well, Dustin might be trying to get in touch.
13:53Well, he knows where to find me if there's an emergency.
13:56Oh, can I help you with this?
13:58Yeah, thank you.
13:59I mean, you know, the honeymoon period
14:01doesn't last very long, does it?
14:03Yeah, I know.
14:05Yes, yes, thank you.
14:07I mean, you know, the honeymoon period
14:09doesn't last forever, right?
14:11Well, there you go.
14:12Enjoy.
14:13Right now, it feels like it's well and truly over.
14:16That's kind of my point.
14:18It's lively in here today.
14:19Yes, John, we don't want to hear any more complaints
14:21about the parking.
14:22No, no, no, negative.
14:23Nigel has left the building.
14:24Today, I'm all about sharing the love.
14:27And how are you feeling today?
14:30Good, why?
14:31About the wedding certificate.
14:33Did Justin surprise you?
14:35Oh.
14:36Don't worry.
14:37Forget I said anything.
14:38Is that why Justin's been trying to get my attention all day?
14:41Yeah, I think so.
14:42Oh.
14:44So you need to go home?
14:46Well, I can't just leave you in the lurch like this.
14:48Your marriage is more important.
14:49Go.
14:50Go on.
14:51Thank you, Marilyn.
14:55And John?
14:58There I go, saving the day again.
15:00Oh, for God's sake.
15:04Hey.
15:07Great.
15:08A visit from the captain himself.
15:10Listen, I don't want to be a laid-down-the-law kind of guy.
15:13I don't want you to be that either.
15:15But it's on me whether my business sinks or swims.
15:17Oh, wow.
15:18OK, enough with the boating metaphors, bro.
15:20You get what I mean, though?
15:22The success of my business is all on me.
15:25Which is why I'm helping you out.
15:27And I appreciate it.
15:29I really do.
15:30But I'm also helping you out.
15:32How?
15:33You said you were at a loose end.
15:35And I'd given you a job.
15:37But that job comes with rules attached.
15:40Such as?
15:41At work, we can't just be mates.
15:44If I need something done differently,
15:46I need to be able to tell you.
15:48If this is about the whole not dating the students thing,
15:52I won't do it.
15:54OK.
15:56The guy on the phone was really boring anyway, so...
15:58Well, even if he wasn't, the rule would still stand.
16:02You get why, don't you?
16:03Yes, I guess I could see how that could make things awkward.
16:06If things didn't pan out
16:07and the guy wanted to slag off manta ray boards,
16:09that could really mess things up.
16:11It only takes one bad review.
16:16Marley, honestly,
16:19I don't want to do anything that might hurt your business.
16:23I've worked really hard for what I've got.
16:25I know.
16:27It's just like you with your music.
16:29We're both doing something we really love
16:31and are trying to make a goal of it.
16:33Marley, I get it.
16:38Now, what other non-negotiables are there?
16:57Those are the words I love to hear.
17:01Those are the words I love to hear.
17:07Oh, look at all this.
17:11Surprise.
17:14The official one's there as well.
17:18Can't get rid of me now.
17:20Well, that cuts both ways, I guess.
17:25I wasn't very nice to you today.
17:28No, you weren't.
17:30Don't worry, you're here now.
17:32That's all that matters.
17:33I'm sorry I'm so late.
17:35I don't wait at all, not for you.
17:37I'm the luckiest woman in the world.
17:40I'm not going to argue with that.
17:46Champagne.
17:48Here you go.
17:50Enjoy.
17:52Hey, you want me to take these to Two Blade?
17:54Yeah, it's her.
17:59How can you be okay with what she's done?
18:01I'm sorry?
18:02I saw you and Mac out on the balcony before.
18:04Yeah, she was upset.
18:05Let me guess.
18:06Everyone's being so mean.
18:08Well, she is kind of copping it right now.
18:10She's brought all of that on herself.
18:11Look, I just don't want to get involved.
18:13That's my point. You've chosen her side.
18:14No, I haven't.
18:15What if it was you who got cheated on?
18:17You wouldn't be so cool with it then, would you?
18:19Don't bring Xander into this.
18:21So, what, that wasn't you out on the balcony trying to suck up to him before?
18:24He was being a friend.
18:25Obviously, you've forgotten what that looks like.
18:27Because you're not my friend.
18:28Well, clearly.
18:29Guys, stop.
18:31I'm not taking anyone's side, so you both just shut up.
18:46No, Mac, I'm going home.
18:47No, Xander, you cannot just walk out in the middle of a shift like this.
18:49Yeah, what she said.
18:50Oh, so now you two can finally agree on something.
18:52Look, you were right, OK? We were a bit full on before.
18:55Full on? You guys have been at each other's throats since you arrived.
18:58Well, you taking sides didn't help.
19:00I'm not taking sides. I'm just trying to do my job.
19:03You guys are making that impossible.
19:04There are better ways that we could have gone about it, sure.
19:07Xander, you cannot talk to us like that.
19:09What, are you going to fire me?
19:11Don't bother. I quit.
19:21Pictures on the wall remind me of the better days
19:27We used to have those
19:30Words are left to scar
19:32Hey, mate.
19:33Oh.
19:34I'll be with you in a minute, Mr Stewart.
19:36No hurry, Marilla.
19:38Didn't they feed you at Salt tonight?
19:40I was in the mood for something different.
19:42Well, you've had quite the day, haven't you?
19:44Sorry?
19:45The movie.
19:46Oh, Ted, no, it's been a crazy one.
19:48I'm a bit jealous.
19:50I'd like to go and watch the filming.
19:52I mean, they're an interesting bunch of people, aren't they?
19:54Well, whatever you reckon, Marilla.
19:59Okay, bye.
20:01Is he okay?
20:02Your guess is as good as mine.
20:06Oh, it's very quiet in here all of a sudden.
20:08Yeah, well, I reckon all of that crew would be going home to get an early night.
20:12They start at five o'clock in the morning.
20:14How do you know?
20:17Well, it doesn't hurt to keep on top of what's going on around the place, Marilla.
20:21Right.
20:27I hope you're happy.
20:29You'd better not be trying to pin this on me.
20:31Why wouldn't I be? It's your fault.
20:32My fault? This is your fault.
20:33You drove Xander away.
20:35He only quit because you tried to make him choose sides.
20:37It was pretty obvious he had already chosen.
20:39Turning on the mortal mates for sympathy, that was a good one.
20:42Oh, okay, how about we just stick to our own lanes and try and get through this shift?
20:45Pity we lost our best barman.
20:46Yeah, well, Xander will come to his senses.
20:48He isn't returning any of my calls or texts.
20:50Well, he just needs time to cool off.
20:52He'll be back on deck tomorrow.
20:53You'll see.
21:09How do I fix this?
21:10How about sorting things out with Mac?
21:11Yeah, that's what I thought.
21:13Mac has done so much damage.
21:15I do not know how he can still work there.
21:17Well, his co-owner showing up is kind of part of the gig.
21:20Well, maybe we can sell the business and be done with her.
21:25Why does Maxine Levi have anything to do with you?
21:28Eden is hurting because of her brother's affair.
21:31It's not your battle.
21:32You poured your heart and soul into that restaurant,
21:34and you're going to let Eden's vendetta tear it apart.
