01:20Wait up you heard him. He doesn't want me here. Come on. It doesn't mean that
01:24Did the boys been through a lot? Okay, we've been through a lot together. I know him

02:18Is that behind nope, look I understand you're concerned
02:25Oh
02:27Concerned concern doesn't even come close. We're talking about my sister's here
02:37So the rumors are true you decided to stay yeah order be worth sticking around
02:45No, you have to do what works best for you
02:48Gonna be bouncing off the walls. Those are all for you. Yeah, the station coffee run is now my responsibility
02:55Well, you better get a move on don't want them to get cold
02:58Yep, sure thing. All right. See ya
03:08I'm gonna need an explanation because you've had my letter for ages and I'm really offended
03:14So, what'd you think
03:16Well for starters, I had no idea you could use an apostrophe. I'm serious Eden. I've really been stressing out about this
03:23Trying to grab some lunch and we can talk about it finally. Yes. I thought you'd never ask
03:38She gone yeah
03:40Well, she can go back to New Zealand never come back. Well, actually I asked her to stick around
03:44Why would you do that because I can see she really wants to make this up to you
03:47So you're still on her side, but I care about what's best for you. Yeah, and that is telling her to get stuff
03:53You know, I saw the look on your face when she said she came to your basketball games
03:56You mean when she came and watched me play basketball, but didn't actually tell me she was alive
04:00Yeah, how weird is that? Well, she obviously has a lot of regret about what's happened. Good. Come on
04:05Hey, it's what I'm the bad guy. No. No, I'm just saying once the shock of this wears off
04:10You might make do I still have a job at the gym? Yes, of course you do cool. That's where I'll be
04:22I
04:26Catch yeah that report for that break and enter. Yes on that one right now, and I'm sorry
04:31I know it's supposed to be in it's all right since when
04:38Pretty sure you're meant to be taking a break now. No, that's fine. I just want to get this done cash. Just go
04:43Be sure
04:44Yeah, just tell me what you've got and I can finish it off now
04:47Okay
04:51Okay, mm-hmm, thank you
05:05Put that on your lip
05:09What you're doing is wrong and you know it Tim
05:12Yeah, it is a gray area I'll give you that it's pretty black and white from where I'm standing Tim
05:18You know what? I'm entitled to a private life. You could have done that with anybody else. That isn't Abby's sister
05:23Look, I understand you concerned. Oh, you're only looking out for your family here
05:27But if you want to talk about crossing the line, that is exactly what you're doing right now
05:30So you care about ethics just only when it suits you
05:33I actually came here thinking we could sort this out, but that's not gonna happen
05:42I
05:53Know that I've made some mistakes and I should have given you more consideration. I didn't write the letter to make you feel bad
06:00Yeah, I know that I know
06:01It's just Tim said that I needed to be more honest with my feelings and I'm so glad that you wrote it
06:07I am I hated it when we're fighting especially when I didn't even know what we're fighting about. Yeah, I hated it, too
06:13Okay
06:13So can we forget all about that stuff and just put it behind us because you are really important to me Abby and you always
06:19will be

09:42I can't believe he did that. Are you okay? Yeah, I'm fine. Are you okay? Yeah. Yeah, it's just I
09:49That's not like Levi
09:51Well, he's made it pretty clear that he's not happy with me or you
09:55Yeah, well you can't blame him right I mean Abby worships the ground that you walk on
10:01If you're here to take another swing don't even don't start
10:06Guys are just gonna have lunch up here. I am. What does that be think about this?
10:10Why just happen to pass downstairs? She thinks that we are having a coffee. She was just here
10:15I'm I was talking to her about the letter nice timing. I made sure that she knows how important she is to me
10:20I don't know when her to be blindsided by this later on Levi
10:23We are in a really good place and I don't want to ruin that you're choosing to jeopardize this by having a life
10:29Okay, how about we just take you stay out of this? I'm talking to my sister
10:34Go down there. Tell her
10:37Look at you you scared
10:39Maybe you should ask yourself why?
10:50Oh
10:56Hey, it's cash back from his break yet. No, I haven't seen him yet
11:05Don't even imagine how this must have been for Mary he's pretty shaken by the whole thing sees it doesn't want anything to do with Claire
11:13I'm supposed to be at the station
11:16Rose hey, I completely lost track of time. I'm on my way now
11:19I'm just gonna head to a beach road and I'm gonna start sitting up. Yeah, Roger that Roger that. Okay
11:27In trouble no, which is surprising tell Rose I kept it. Yeah. Okay. Good luck with her
11:46I
11:50Must make it up to me, but I don't see how she can well you had a chance to talk to her properly
11:55Yeah, kind of she was just saying how hard it was for her to leave me. Yeah, I bet
12:01Look, I know dad was a monster, but that's the exact reason why she shouldn't have left me right? This is your mom
12:07We're talking about it's a pretty big decision to push her away forever. I
12:11I don't know. I just can't think about it right now. Was there anything you need from me?
12:17No, no, I gotta go to work place that way. I'll be distracted
12:23All right. Well text me later if you want to hang. Thanks
12:32So Abby still around she's just running the listen list down to Molly. Okay, cool. I'll catch up with her later then
12:41I bet you will
12:51People are just finding out they're gonna have strong opinions. Yeah. Yeah
12:56But as much as I hate to admit, I think Levi's right
13:00We're lying to Abby and to ourselves if we think that we can keep this up without her getting hurt
13:05So, like I said, let's just get on the front foot and be honest. Well, I can already tell you how that's gonna go
13:10I mean you said it yourself
13:11Abby's come a long way. Yeah, but she's still got a long way to go and I don't want to sacrifice the progress I've made
13:23So what we just we sacrifice each other and said what I don't want to I just I don't think that we have a choice
13:33I need to put Abby's happiness before my own
13:36I
13:38That line that we were talking about I think we both know that with family foster
13:46Yeah, you're right I was just different
13:51But

14:03Always looking for a better life
14:07I

14:13Rose hey, I lost track of time. I know that's no excuse though. Well, you know, so that's what counts
14:19What's speaking to Tony about Perry? Yeah, I heard about the surprise witness. There's no excuse for being late. Yesh. It's fun. No, it's not

15:16Was talking to Theo today about mom
15:19He told me to think about it before I push her away forever. Oh
15:24Pretty good advice
15:26Yeah, I mean she's not gonna stay here forever
15:29If I do push her away
15:32She'll go
15:35I
15:36Don't know what to do
15:38Mate, that's all good. You know, nobody's forcing you to do anything
15:42Listen, how about I call her and just tell you need more time? Can you yeah
15:53Hey Kai, it's Tony. Yeah. Yeah, he's good. He's still a bit overwhelmed
15:59Listen I think he just needs a bit more time and a bit of space at the moment
16:04No, no, it's not goodbye. It's just just let the dust settle
16:10Yeah, yeah, okay, how about yeah, thanks, bye
16:15Shops out. Yeah, it's a bit disappointed but she understands
16:20Mate, we'll take this as slowly as you need
16:29You
16:37Hey Abby, so I was thinking
16:42We should go surfing sometime
16:45Okay. Well, the only problem is I don't really know how he's serious. You realize it's a skill
16:50We're not all born with right? You realize you work at a board shop. Okay. Well, maybe Molly hide me for my personality
16:55Oh, yeah, well, I like you there. Mm-hmm. So we're in agreement. Yeah
17:00Hey, there's Molly. Yeah, he's fine
17:06Um
17:07Kirby do you mind if I bail I know that you're about to close up but I just got a text from my counselor and
17:11He wants to see me. Oh, you ditched us for someone else. There's a guy who doesn't even work here
17:16Yes, that is totally fine. I will hold the fort until Molly gets back. Thank you so much
17:21Hmm
17:25Well
17:26You're totally into her. What?
17:29Drop the act. You used to look at me with those puppy dog eyes. Yeah, he's just a friend
17:35But I'm sure you want it to be a whole lot more than that. I
17:38Think someone's had a little bit too much sun today
17:41Nice try dude, but you are not fooling anyone. Oh, see you later
17:45Hey
17:50Hey, I
17:52Didn't know you're sticking around today. Yeah. No. No, I thought that we could just have a bit of a chat

17:59Cuz that's totally good with me can actually chat about how things went with even today. I'm sorry
18:04I
18:07Can't work with you anymore. What look I'm making arrangements. I can give you a list of people to replace me
18:13I think it's really important that you keep working. Wait, wait, wait. Why can't I keep working with you?
18:17Well, I'm sorry, but it's just not possible. Why what what did I do? No. No, you've you've done absolutely nothing wrong. Trust me
18:26It's just that I have I have way too many patients on my books
18:30That's all and it's become clear to me that I can't give you the time that you need. Okay, so please get rid of someone else
18:37Unfortunately, you were the last person that I took on someone first to go
