00:00Dad!
00:01Hey son.
00:02What are you doing here?
00:03You haven't been returning my calls.
00:04Went round your place to see if everything was okay.
00:05Oh, you spoke to Imogen.
00:06Why?
00:07Didn't you tell me your marriage was over?
00:08Me and Mackenzie, she's blindsided me.
00:09She must be one hell of a woman.
00:10She is.
00:11No, we're not coming to Salt.
00:12Because if Eden is working and me and Dad walk in there, she will be there.
00:13I'm going to be there.
00:14I'm going to be there.
00:15I'm going to be there.
00:16I'm going to be there.
00:17I'm going to be there.
00:18I'm going to be there.
00:19I'm going to be there.
00:20I'm going to be there.
00:21I'm going to be there.
00:22I'm going to be there.
00:23She must be one hell of a woman.
00:24She is.
00:25No, we're not coming to Salt.
00:26Because if Eden is working and me and Dad walk in there, she will burn your restaurant
00:31to the ground.
00:32Eden?
00:33What the hell is Dad doing here?
00:39I didn't see anything.
00:40Ouch!
00:41Ow!
00:42So how's it coming along?
00:43I just need to know what design you want.
00:44I want it to say Blood and Sand.
00:45Stewart, if you don't want to be doing business with this lot, steer clear of it.
00:47As soon I get rid of the board that's exactly what I'm going to do.
00:50I know you're still struggling at a brotty, but I get the feeling it's a bit more than that
00:55I'm a phone call away if you need me.
00:57You're too nice to me John, I don't deserve it.
01:00Yes, you do.
01:07So that was a pretty great lesson. And Xander's doing better.
01:11Yeah, I heard.
01:13It's a good day, right?
01:15No? What's with you?
01:17Nothing. Just waiting for a guy to pick up his new board.
01:20Have you tried calling him?
01:22Yeah, I did. He hasn't got back to me yet.
01:26We're busy. I don't have time to chase up customers.
01:30Maybe you should get out there and shake off some of that stress.
01:36Mr Fowler?
01:40Kirby?
01:41Hi!
01:42Oh my gosh, I wasn't sure it was you. It's been a while.
01:45Great to see you.
01:46Yeah, you too. Are you here visiting Levi?
01:48Yeah. Are you?
01:50No. No, I live here now.
01:52Oh, and the rest of the band?
01:54If you mean Eden, you do know that she lives here too, right?
01:58No. I mean, I doubt she's going to care.
02:00Trust me, she will. Summer Bay's not that big, so you'll probably run into her.
02:06So, you didn't know that she moved here?
02:08No. No, Levi didn't tell me that one.
02:18I can't believe you would do this.
02:20I told you I did not invite him here.
02:23Then why is he here?
02:25Because he went to the house. Imogen just told him everything.
02:28Imogen told him? You didn't even have the guts to tell him yourself?
02:35Does he know I'm here?
02:36No. I assumed you didn't want me to pass that on.
02:39Move.
02:40Did book a hotel, though.
02:42Great. Great. How long is he here for?
02:45I don't know. If he's playing it by ear, an hour.
02:49You should talk to him. You haven't seen him in years.
02:52There's a reason I haven't seen him. I hate him.
02:54Even more than I hate you.
02:58This isn't my problem. This is yours.
03:00What does that mean?
03:01It means I'm taking my father to dinner tonight at my girlfriend's restaurant.
03:04No, you're not. Because I am working.
03:06I'm telling you this as a courtesy.
03:08It is up to you if you want to be there.
03:11Now, if you don't mind, I was about to leave.
03:14You're enjoying this, aren't you?
03:16No, Aidan. I'm hating every minute of this.
03:37Aidan?
03:39Aidan?
03:46Here you are.
03:47I was just about to call you. I've got all of your messages. What's going on?
03:52Hey, well, are you okay?
03:53Not really. My dad's here.
03:59Oh, I was meant to say that I will finish the rosters when I'm on my break.
04:03Love, you don't have to do that.
04:06I want to.
04:07Nobody wants to do the rosters.
04:10Leah, you need to stop fussing.
04:12I'm not.
04:14Alright, maybe a little. It's just you've been quiet the last few days.
04:17Yeah, well, we've been very busy.
04:19I know. I'm here if you want to talk.
04:23I really am fine.
04:25Here, table five.
04:27I got your message.
04:29I spoke to Rose and she said Sandra's still in hospital but he's going to be totally fine.
04:34Oh, that's a relief.
04:36And he and Dana got back together.
04:38Doesn't that love me?
04:39Absolutely. They deserve to be happy.
04:42Yeah, good for them.
04:46I thought she'd be over the moon about that.
04:48So did I. She's just not herself.
04:51I hope she's not still blaming herself for the breakup.
04:55I want to help her. I just don't know how.
04:58Well, that is beautiful. Is the owner picking you up today?
05:01I've left him a message and he still hasn't got back.
05:05Ah, well, you've put a lot of work into it. Is he a mate?
05:09No. Hey, do you mind staying back? I could really do with a hand here.
05:14Sure.
05:15Um, Dad, there's probably something you should know. Eden lives here.
05:18Yeah, I know. Kirby filled me in.
05:20Oh. Well, she might be working upstairs tonight.
05:24Uh, sorry. I didn't really know how to tell you.
05:27Hello. Hey again.
05:28Hey.
05:29Can I please talk to you?
05:31Uh, yeah.
05:36Have you told Eden that he's here?
05:41Uh, yeah. Yeah, she wasn't happy.
05:44Do you blame her?
05:46Do you know if Eden's upstairs?
05:48Well, I was just up there and the bar guy said that she's taking the night off.
05:54It's probably best for everyone.
05:56Yeah.
05:59Come on.
06:01The last time I saw Dad, uh, he turned up at a gig.
06:08And we were in the middle of a song and I walked off stage.
06:13What happened?
06:15Nothing.
06:17I left and that was it. I never heard from him again.
06:21Oh, I'm sorry.
06:23I'm not. I wasn't hurt. I was relieved.
06:27Okay, um, you know, with Levi living here, you're probably going to run into your dad at some point.
06:31Not if I can help it.
06:37Ah, sorry. I'm sorry that I, um, I dragged you away from whatever it is you're doing in the Grove River.
06:44But please tell me you do not have to go back.
06:47I don't have to go back.
06:49Okay, um, would you mind if I grab some takeaway and we go and eat it at your place?
06:53Because I think that Flick's going to want to come back here with Rory and I'm just not in the mood for it.
06:59Thanks for listening.
07:04People can change.
07:08Not him.
07:10Okay.
07:13Be back as soon as I can.
07:15Yeah.
07:24She came over to mine after she saw you.
07:27She was upset.
07:29We had another argument.
07:31I'm sorry, son.
07:33I didn't mean to cause more tension between you.
07:36She was already mad about my marriage ending.
07:38The sad part is we were talking again.
07:41Well, Eden finally forgave you. That's a good sign, isn't it?
07:44I was happy.
07:46She was too.
07:48Now she wouldn't even look at me.
07:50Well, the moment she feels vulnerable, she puts her walls up. I mean, I taught her that.
07:55Yeah, but Dad, she's an adult. She needs to give you a second chance.
07:59That's Eden's choice, mate. It's not mine, it's not yours.
08:02Hey, Levi.
08:04Hey.
08:06How are you?
08:08Good. You must be Mr Fowler.
08:10Um, Dad, this is Cash, Eden's boyfriend.
08:12Ah.
08:14It's Jimmy.
08:16Jimmy, good to meet you.
08:17I wish your circumstances were different.
08:19You and me both.
08:21Would you like to join us?
08:23Mate, I would, but I've got Eden waiting for me at home.
08:25She's been better.
08:27I'm sorry to cause more hurt.
08:30If there's ever a right moment, please, would you give her my love?
08:37Yeah, yeah, I'll leave you guys to it.
08:43You okay?
08:44Yeah, well, it's Eden I'm worried about.
08:53Hey, once we're finished here, can I share your dinner?
08:58Like I'm gonna say no.
09:00What does this mean anyway, blood and sand?
09:03You didn't ask?
09:05I don't really know what it means.
09:07The guy who ordered the board, he's in a gang.
09:10He's in a gang.
09:12And they all get that as a tattoo.
09:18Rory?
09:20As in Felicity's Rory?
09:22Does she know that he's in a gang?
09:24I'm not sure.
09:26How do you know about this gang anyway?
09:28Rory and his mate did me a favour.
09:32What are you doing getting involved with a gang?
09:35Is that really a good idea?
09:37I'm not involved with a gang.
09:38It's just a customer, okay?
09:40Okay, well, now I know why you want to get rid of this board.
09:45Can we keep this between ourselves?
09:49Yes, just please be careful.
09:52I'll be fine.
10:01Thank you for picking up the food.
10:04No problem.
10:05I just want to eat this, curl up on the couch and forget today ever happened.
10:09Listen, I ran into Levi and your dad at Salt.
10:12So?
10:14So I introduced myself.
10:18So what did he say?
10:20He asked me to pass on his love.
10:22He's unbelievable.
10:24No, no, he seems sincere.
10:26When was the last time you had an actual conversation with him?
10:28Have you been listening to anything that I've said?
10:30I have. You just might not ever get this opportunity again.
10:32So what's your point?
10:34My point is I would do anything to have five more minutes with my dad.
10:39You want me to have five minutes with my father?
10:41Okay, let's see how that goes.
10:43Eden, come on, Eden, hey.
10:45I'm not invited.
10:47You know, I always thought she'd end up with that Remy guy.
10:50Remy?
10:52Yeah, but they're still close. She's got a lot going on.
10:54She's got a great friend. She loves living here.
10:56So how long has she been with Cash?
10:58Long enough for them to fall in love.
11:00She's happy, Dad. Really happy.
11:01Cash is a good guy.
11:03Yeah, I can see that.
11:05That's all I want for her, you know?
11:07You don't have to worry about her, okay?
11:12Mom.
11:14Eden.
11:16I'm glad you're here.
11:18Yeah, I wish I could say the same.
11:20Levi was just filling me in on, you know, what you've been up to.
11:22Just go.
11:24Just get in your car, go home and don't come back.
11:27Nice work.
11:29Setting an example for your son, by the way.
11:31It has nothing to do with my choices.
11:33Oh, it's just genetics. It just runs in the family. You're both cheating.
11:35You're a part of this family, too. Okay, knock it off.
11:37Both of you.
11:40Eden, I know this is hard for you.
11:43But I need you to know one thing.
11:47I love you.
11:49I'm proud of you.
11:51And that's never going to change.
11:53You destroyed our family.
11:55I never want to see you again.
11:58No, Eden. No.
11:59I'm not going to make that leave!
12:01Levi!
12:03Okay.
12:07We'll leave in the morning?
12:11Good.
12:23Good news. The rosters are done and you have the weekend off.
12:27I told you I want to keep working.
12:29Look, you need to have a rest.
12:31And you need to stop making decisions for me.
12:33Sorry, I won't mention that again.
12:36No, I'm sorry, love. I didn't mean to bite your head off.
12:39It's fine.
12:41Irene, I'm just worried that you're blaming yourself for what Monty did.
12:45I didn't protect the people I care about from her scamming.
12:50Please don't ask me to feel good about that.
12:57It breaks my heart.
13:00She's done nothing wrong.
13:02She's lost confidence in herself. That's the problem.
13:05I wish there was something good that Irene could take away from all of this.
13:11You know, maybe there is.
13:13What if I organise an interview with the Coastal News?
13:16If we can tell our side of the story, it can show how easy it can happen to someone else.
13:21Oh, that's a good idea. Like a public service announcement.
13:24Yeah, maybe this is what's going to make her feel better about what happened.
13:31Sister's about to call you.
13:33Did you find your dad?
13:35Yeah. Yeah, and I told him to get the hell away from me.
13:38I'm sorry.
13:40No, no. I'm sorry that I listened to you. That's fine.
13:42Oh, come on. Look, I just thought that if you could sit down and have a reasonable conversation with a guy,
13:46maybe you might find that he's changed.
13:48I'm forgetting. It's my fault. I'm the problem here.
13:50Of course it's not your fault. That's not what I'm saying.
13:52It's fine. You can defend him all you like.
13:54I thought you were different.
13:56I thought that you were different, but you are all the same.
13:58You're all the same. OK?
14:01You have each other's backs and you don't even know that you are doing it.
14:04Just go. Just leave.
14:24Table four. Asking about their coffee.
14:28I'm sure, love. I'm on it.
14:31Irene, have you got a minute?
14:33Yeah.
14:35I called the Coastal News and they're interested in talking to us about what happened with Bronte.
14:41Why would we?
14:43To get the message out there about scammers and hopefully stop it happening to anyone else.
14:48Yes, and it might be a way of taking something positive out of this.
14:51Yeah, and it shows victims out there that we're fighting back.
14:55And they want to interview us tomorrow morning. What do you say?
14:59Well, if you really think it'll help other people.
15:03The journalist is going to email through all the questions so we can run through it in the morning.
15:08Well, looks like we're doing this.
15:11You won't regret it.
15:19Hey.
15:21What are you doing? Where's Eden?
15:23She's in her bedroom. I'm not welcome. I didn't want to leave her alone when she's like this.
15:28This is about her dad?
15:30Yeah.
15:32Okay. Well, if you need anything, I'm here.
15:35Thanks.
15:45Hey.
15:47Hey. You okay?
15:50I shouldn't have said those things to you. I'm sorry.
15:55Alright, well, I know it wasn't about me.
15:58And look, Eden, just so that it's been said, I would never cheat on you.
16:02And I mean that. That's never going to happen.
16:05It's not you I'm worried about.
16:10Levi said something and it made me realise.
16:14What if I'm no different from him and Dad?
16:16What if I did that to you?
16:18What are you talking about?
16:21Well, I mean, they never set out to hurt Mum and Imogen.
16:26They just met someone else and everything changed.
16:30Well, they made their own choices.
16:32They're not the choices that you'd make.
16:34And if you ever start feeling like that, you just talk to me about it and we can work it out together.
16:40I'll always be honest.
16:42Well, then I reckon we'll always be okay.
16:45Yeah.
16:48Eden, do you mind if I don't sleep on the couch?
16:52Because I hate all the blankets in your living closet. They're all scratchy.
16:55Yeah.
16:57Yeah.
17:15For these old wounds to heal.
17:35Leaving? So soon, gosh. Did you get to catch up with Eden?
17:39Yeah, I did.
17:41Oh, well, it's a shame you don't live closer. Nice to meet you.
17:42You too.
17:47Listen, son. Eden needs me to go, okay? And I don't want to cause her any more distress.
17:53I just don't know how you do it.
17:55It hurts. I mean, she's my daughter. I love her.
17:57One day you just decided to stop fighting for her.
18:00So did you.
18:02Yeah, and I regret that. I realised maybe I could have fought a little bit harder.
18:06She didn't give you a choice, mate.
18:07Who knows, one day she might get past her anger.
18:10She could find a way to forgive you and me.
18:13We can always hope.
18:25Morning.
18:27Hey, how's the new job going?
18:29Oh, it's at its moment.
18:31Yeah? Dean used to tell me that it gets pretty bad out at Mangrove River.
18:34Yeah, Dean wasn't wrong about that.
18:35How bad is it?
18:37What's your reason for asking?
18:39Rory Templeton ordered a custom board from me.
18:43It's not the greatest look for the business.
18:46Yeah, I get that.
18:48And now Mr Stewart's on my case.
18:50Is that your only problem? Or are you in some kind of trouble?
18:54I don't know. No, there's nothing like that.
18:57Once I hand over the board, I'm sweet.
19:00Alright, look, if he starts causing you problems, I want you to talk to me, okay?
19:03Yeah.
19:05Good.
19:07Hey, Joanna.
19:09Whoa, hey, whoa.
19:11I wasn't at the River Boys' house last night. I was with Eden.
19:17Joanna, I want you to stay put. I'll be right there.
19:27Um, Marilyn, is Irene at the coffee cart?
19:30No.
19:31Aren't you meant to be getting ready for the interview?
19:34Yes, she must be running late. I will call her and see where she is.
19:38You're doing a great thing, Marilyn.
19:40I hope so.
19:42There she is.
19:44Oh, great. We need to get going on these questions.
19:46I've changed my mind.
19:48What do you mean?
19:50Well, I thought about it last night and I'm not doing the interview.
19:54Uh, could I ask why?
19:57I've got a lot on my plate.
19:58Irene, the interview's already organised.
20:01You're free to talk to the journo yourself later, but you'll be doing it on your own.
20:28How's the day?
20:59You're the boss.
21:09I feel they've been given the signal to step down.
21:12This is what happens, Cash, when you push back on the River Boys.
21:15I mean, this was obviously a warning.
21:17Are you going to drop the surveillance?
21:19No, I'm not going to drop the surveillance.
21:21Are you going to drop the surveillance?
21:23No, I'm not going to drop the surveillance.
21:24This is what happens, when you push back on the River Boys.
21:26I mean, this was obviously a warning.
21:28Are you going to drop the surveillance?
21:30No.
21:31Neither did Franklin, and look what happened to him.
21:35Welcome to Mangrove River.
