00:00Previously on Neighbours.
00:02I didn't go in.
00:03You listen to your instincts.
00:04They're protecting you.
00:05I still feel like something's different.
00:07Apparently I'm being considered for early release.
00:13Knock, knock.
00:14We're studying.
00:16But I made a promise that I'd be in their lives forever.
00:19Yeah, I'm sure the kids would like that.
00:21But I'm concerned about Holly's spending.
00:23I sold the necklace that Heath gave me.
00:25Looks like he got through to her.
00:27That's a lot of cash.
00:31Neighbours
00:34Everybody needs good neighbours
00:38With a little understanding
00:43You can find the perfect blend
00:49Neighbours
00:51Should be there for one another
00:56That's when good neighbours
00:59Become good friends
01:06What are you doing with all this money?
01:09None of your business.
01:11Well, it's a fat roll of Granny Smith,
01:13so there's got to be a story behind it.
01:15Doesn't mean that you need to hear it.
01:17What are you doing here anyway?
01:20Carl said that I could come and pick some buzzle.
01:23Well, just...
01:30OK.
01:31We've got some celery.
01:33We've got some mondo grass.
01:34We've got, what's this, parsley?
01:38No, it's no money tree.
01:41I sold a necklace.
01:42Heath gave it to me and it was worth a lot of money.
01:44And you kept the money in the greenhouse?
01:48Try again.
01:49Well, I don't trust banks.
01:51Money was stolen from my account before.
01:53Do I need to talk to Carl and Susan?
01:59OK, fine. Heath did give me a necklace.
02:02But he also left some cash.
02:05And nobody else knows about it?
02:06No.
02:07And they can't find out, OK?
02:09Ah, the gang's all here.
02:11Group gardening sesh.
02:13I'd love to, but I'm all gardened out.
02:15I've actually got to go.
02:16OK.
02:19I'll get that bazzle for you.
02:20Oh, thank you, Carl.
02:25What do you want to drink?
02:26Ah, I don't know.
02:28I'd love to hear if Felix is getting out of jail warranted beer.
02:30Absolutely.
02:32About when you're 18.
02:34Hey.
02:36Um, Felix is being released.
02:41OK.
02:42When?
02:43As soon as he is well enough to be discharged from hospital.
02:46And where will he go from there?
02:48Are there any restrictions on his movements, or?
02:50There aren't any in his release conditions.
02:52Well, can we get an intervention order?
02:54Unfortunately, there's not enough evidence for a judge to grant one.
02:58But he'll be free to move within the state as long as he keeps his nose clean.
03:01Oh, well, we won't have to worry too much.
03:03He'll be back inside soon enough.
03:07Are you OK, mate?
03:10Yeah, thanks.
03:12I'm just going to head out.
03:17Oh, I shouldn't have said that.
03:19It's hard not to assume the worst in Felix.
03:21Yeah, but it's not helping JJ.
03:23You're entitled to have feelings about this.
03:25You know, when he was in jail, he was out of sight, out of mind.
03:28Now...
03:32When Haz and Matt get married, we should take lots of pictures in the nursery.
03:36That is a great idea.
03:37It'd be good to remember it looking its best.
03:41I'm really proud of how you're handling everything at the moment.
03:45No point getting upset about it.
03:48Yeah, well, still, there's been a lot of change, hasn't there?
03:51I'm telling myself, change can be good.
03:55Do you really believe that?
03:58I want to believe it.
04:01I really want you to be happy, Dad.
04:06I want you to be happy too, darling.
04:10I haven't even checked in with you lately.
04:11Is there anything else going on in your life?
04:21No, there's nothing going on.
04:26Oh, she can't even be around me.
04:29You guys just need some distance with each other.
04:33Here you go.
04:37Therese.
04:42Hey.
04:43Hi.
04:44Want a coffee?
04:45Uh, thanks, but I'm actually going to meet someone.
04:47Okay.
04:49Actually, there's something I wanted to ask you.
04:52Would it be okay if I stayed over a couple of nights a week?
04:56Oh, of course.
04:58I'd absolutely love that.
04:59You know my house will always be yours.
05:02Come on.
05:12Ah, ah, hey.
05:14Not so fast, Richie Rich.
05:16Ah, ah, hey.
05:18Not so fast, Richie Rich.
05:25Buy you a coffee?
05:27Well, you could buy me the machine.
05:29But you're not going to, because you're going to hand that money back.
05:32It's stolen funds.
05:33Nobody's missing it, okay?
05:35Chris just getting all the money back from Tess.
05:37It's not like Heath was robbing little old ladies.
05:40He was ripping off big companies that would have insurance.
05:42Holly, a thief is a thief is a thief.
05:45I didn't steal, I found.
05:48And spending it is making me feel better than I have in months.
05:51Heath put me through hell.
05:53This is victim's compensation.
05:55You do realize what a difficult position you're putting me in.
05:58Just forget you ever saw anything.
06:00I'm married to a policeman.
06:02You've kept secrets from Andrew before.
06:08You're going to tell Andrew.
06:09If you don't, then I will.
06:21Hey.
06:23Oh, hey.
06:26How'd you go breaking the news?
06:28Ah, Cara and Remy were pretty shaken by it.
06:33What about Jojo?
06:35Yeah, I had her to get a read on.
06:37He was very quiet.
06:39Well, it's a huge deal for him.
06:41Yeah.
06:43You think you should tell them about what Felix said the last time you saw him in jail?
06:47That he pretended to not care about JJ?
06:51Yeah.
06:53No.
06:55Look, I know that we both saw something different in Felix, but I don't think he's ever going to change.
07:01I don't trust him to do right, but I need him to.
07:05So I have a plan.
07:06And when I said I didn't want to see Felix, I thought that was it.
07:10It's, um, that was when he was going back to jail.
07:13I believed that we, we had this connection.
07:16And then, then he used me.
07:19And, uh, he said he doesn't want me in his life.
07:24And, you know, if I just never see Felix again, then, um, he can't hurt me like that again.
07:33Hey.
07:34Hey.
07:36Really wish I could tell you what to do, but...
07:41I mean, you can figure that out.
07:44Good news is, though...
07:46Will.
07:48It's just...
07:50It doesn't feel like that.
07:55Putting on my therapy girl hat here.
07:58You're super in touch with your head and your heart.
08:01Even if it's all a little bit jumbled.
08:04Just starting from a point a lot of people never even get to.
08:10As you get so wise.
08:13All the things going on with my dad, I didn't have a choice.
08:18Well, um, thank you.
08:20I feel a lot better just talking about it, so...
08:23Well, you can talk to me about whatever, whenever.
08:28What if I don't want to talk?
08:29And what if I don't want to talk?
08:41I've got a bit of a dilemma.
08:44Someone's told me to do the right thing, but I think they might be wrong about what's right.
08:51Because the wrong thing feels right to me, and I'm not hurting anyone, so that's all that matters, right?
08:57Or wrong?
08:59Let me give you a piece of wise bartender advice.
09:02Often, the best answer is a compromise between what the two parties want.
09:08That's it?
09:10Of course.
09:12Haven't been a bartender that long, you can't expect me to be that wise.
09:30I found a bed in a halfway house in West Waratah.
09:33Oh, that's not far.
09:35I thought you were going to banish me to the back of beyond.
09:37Yeah, I thought about it.
09:39But I need to keep an eye on you until you're back on your feet.
09:41I'll pay rent and help you with a bit of money until you get the job.
09:45Which I will do, as soon as possible.
09:48I don't know how to thank you.
09:50Thank me by staying away from my family and the Varga Murphys.
09:53OK, I get that.
09:54Just hope one day I can redeem myself with you and Wendy and Sadie.
09:59Yeah.
10:01But the Varga Murphys.
10:03I told Cara and Remy that I would distance myself from JJ, and I have.
10:09Killed me to break his heart, but I did it.
10:12And I'm not going to roll it back.
10:15I'm no good for him.
10:17And I will stay away.
10:18Look, I got a guy. I'll run you through the details later, alright?
10:48Yeah.
11:19I miss you.
11:32Thanks for coming to me with this. I would have liked to have got it a lot earlier.
11:35You shouldn't have sat on it.
11:37I'm not going to lie, I was tempted to keep it, but your wife made me see some sense.
11:43Look, I'm glad.
11:44Finding 50 on the street is one thing, but there's a lot of hundreds in here.
11:49At least five grand.
11:51It's ten grand, actually.
11:53Which makes me wonder how much of Heath's money is still out there.
11:56He stole a lot more than this.
11:58I don't know. That's all that was in the locker.
12:01Right. Thanks.
12:04My pleasure. I wouldn't want to get in trouble with the law.
12:08I'm really glad that you snuck into my backyard and yelled at me and wouldn't take mind your own business for an answer.
12:13Um, you're welcome.
12:16Do you guys mind if we keep this to ourselves?
12:19I'm not proud of myself for being tempted, and I'd really prefer if Dad and Susan didn't find out.
12:24Well, you've still got to make an official statement at the station.
12:28But you handed in the money, so there's no real reason to contact Carl and Susan.
12:33And now you've done the right thing. Your secret's safe.
12:37Thanks.
12:38Thanks.
12:42Alright, see you soon. Bye.
12:45Hello, mate. What did you get up to today?
12:48Oh, I just did a few hours at the foundation with Nell.
12:51Oh, how's it going?
12:53The place is scarily under control. My family needs me there.
12:56Oh, well. Table's set. Pizza's in the oven. Looks like we're pretty much under control, too.
13:02You guys are the best. You know that, right?
13:05Um, it's only pizza, Tate.
13:07No, no, no. I mean it.
13:09For taking me in and for always being there for me.
13:13Everything okay, Tate?
13:15Yeah.
13:17Yeah, oh, well.
13:19It will be, if it all goes to plan.
13:23I've made a decision.
13:25It's just a natural progression, really, given all the other decisions that I've made lately.
13:31I think that it is time for a change.
13:34A change?
13:36And I want to move the kids to Colac.
13:39Colac?
13:41Yeah, yeah, yeah. To be with my family. Yeah.
13:44For them, you know. For me. For Therese. For everyone.
13:50Hang on. Are you talking permanently?
13:53For the foreseeable, yeah.
13:56I just, uh, I feel that so much has happened here that we all, we all really need a fresh start.
14:05I know this is a bit of a shock.
14:09Probably for the kids, too.
14:11Especially Nell. She's very attached to Therese.
14:14Yeah, I'm not underestimating that, but we're only a few hours down the road.
14:18I'm not going to force them, and that wouldn't be the right thing to do,
14:22but I am going to try my hardest to get them to see that this is for the best.
14:26And I would really appreciate your support on that.
14:28Oh, Toe. You've been here with us longer than our own kids.
14:33I can't imagine Erinsburgh without you.
14:36It just wouldn't feel like home. We'd miss you too much.
14:40Guys, come on. We're still going to be in each other's lives. Nothing's going to change that.
14:45I think, I think we just need some time to get our heads around this.
14:51Yeah, yeah. Yeah, of course.
14:52Yeah, yeah, of course.
14:55Toe, Toe, of course we will support you, but I really think Nell's going to be an issue.
15:02I just need to make her and Hugo see that a new chapter in Colac is exactly what we need.
15:10What?
15:14Therese.
15:17What? You think you've taken the kids away?
15:23No.
15:29Therese.
15:53What?
16:05I'm sorry you found out that way.
16:08I was going to tell you, but I wanted to talk to the kids first.
16:14You know, Nell just asked if she could stay here a few nights a week.
16:18Oh, no, I didn't know that she was planning that.
16:23No, those kids need stability, and I want to give it to them. I thought that's what we were trying to do.
16:31That's why I'm suggesting the move.
16:34I thought you said you wanted me in their lives.
16:37I do, and you will be, just not every day. A fresh start is what's going to be best for everyone here.
16:42Best for everyone? I mean, I can see how it's best for you.
16:46I mean, you get to wipe the slate clean. You get to wash your hands and leave it all behind.
16:51And I'm left here, alone, on my own, with nothing. Nobody.
16:56Well, that wasn't my intention.
16:58Haven't you taken enough from me, Toadie? How could you be so cruel?
17:04But it's not about anybody else.
17:07It's not about anybody else.
17:10This is you, running away. Because that's what you do now, isn't it?
17:16I'm sorry. I have... I am...
17:21I realise that asking for your support is too much.
17:24No, asking them is too much.
17:27They won't agree. At least Nell won't. I mean, Erinsbury's the only home that she knows.
17:33I was wanting to give them the chance to make their own decision.
17:41When are you putting it to them?
17:44First thing in the morning.
17:46I want to be there.
17:49Okay, alright. Just please know that I'm just... I'm trying to do the best thing for everyone.
18:04DOOR SLAMS SHUT
18:14You're looking a lot brighter this morning. How are you feeling?
18:18Actually, pretty good. I mean, the pain is what it is, but the main thing I'm feeling right now is gratitude.
18:26From what I'm hearing, it seems like you've got yourself a guardian angel.
18:29Hmm. How do you hit the nail on the head?
18:32A gift I've been given. I owe the big guy more than I can ever pay back.
18:46So what do you think?
18:48I think Felix is a serial liar and an opportunist.
18:52How do we know he'll stay away?
18:53Well, he said he would, and he seemed genuine, but it's Felix, so I'll keep a really close eye on things.
19:01Well, keep us in the loop.
19:03A hundred percent.
19:05Well, Andrew.
19:06Yeah?
19:07Have there been any issues on the ward?
19:10Not that I'm aware of.
19:16What's going on?
19:18There's another patient I'm worried about. Wade Furnsby.
19:21Wade Furnsby?
19:23What, the deepfake guy? Wow, that prison brawl really brought all the creeps out of the woodwork.
19:29I didn't want to say anything in case Haz and Mac found out.
19:32Well, after everything they've been through, they need to put it behind them.
19:35Exactly.
19:37We'll take ours out the back.
19:39Yeah, just give us a yell if you need anything.
19:45So, uh, what's going on?
19:47Um, come in and take a seat.
19:49Come on.
19:54So, um, you know, I've been doing a bit of thinking, uh, and, uh, I've got a proposal for you.
20:03I think it could be time for a fresh start.
20:07So, I'd like us to move to Colac.
20:14Is he for real?
20:20No, I, I don't want to go anywhere and neither do you, right?
20:26I know that this is a bit of a shock, uh, so I just, you know, I, I want you to at least consider it, you know, just give it some real proper thought.
20:35The answer is still no. I am not leaving my friends and my, and my school and, and you.
20:45You guys love it in Colac.
20:47You're going to get spoiled by Nan and Big Kev and you'll be, I want to hang out with your cousins, go horse riding, dirt bike riding, yeah?
20:57What do you reckon?
20:59I don't know.
21:01Yeah, well, your proposal has been rejected, end of story.
21:05Okay, well, I, I don't want your decision right now. I want us to go through a list of pros in Colac.
21:09Nell, Nell.
21:10Please, Nell, if you'll just give me a chance to.
21:11Nell.
21:17Can I go shoot some hoops?
21:20Yeah, sure, mate.
21:28Well, you got your answer?
21:30Mm, yeah, I think we need to give them a bit more time.
21:36Why do you have to take something else away from them?
21:40I'm trying to give them a fresh start in a new environment, away from all of the pain and the hurt.
21:48The pain and hurt that you caused.
21:54Yep. Yeah, I did.
21:57I'm not going to deny that.
22:01But you know what, Therese? There's been a whole lot of other trauma that has happened here.
22:06And I'm not free of it.
22:08And it keeps, it keeps driving me to make bad decisions and the people that I love, including you, deserve way better than what I've been giving them.
22:16Those kids deserve a father that is...
22:21They deserve a father that is rock solid in every single way and I can't be the best version of myself here.
22:29I need some space just to heal.
22:34This is seriously the only way that I can actually see us moving forward.
22:38And, you know what, I think that now we'll actually soon realise that apart from you, Carl and Susan, there's actually not much keeping her here.
22:53Coming up on Neighbours.
22:55You were one of the victims when all the deepfake stuff went down.
22:58How did you forgive Haz?
23:00Hey, is um, is everything okay?
23:02Okay, what's Jared done now?
23:04You know he had a crack at me the other day.
23:08You know he had a crack at me the other day.
