00:00I'm going to make it my personal crusade to prove that you're a liar.
00:11We have a problem.
00:12I mean, it's all fake.
00:13Getting Irene to remortgage your house as part of your scam, I mean, that's on top of
00:18the insurance.
00:19I mean, your treatment in general, right, because you're not even sick.
00:22Prove it.
00:23That's you finally admitting it.
00:24How do I look her in the eye and tell her that my possessions are more important than
00:29her life?
00:30You're right.
00:31Lea and I are going to give you $50,000.
00:34Irene, thank you.
00:35Sweetheart.
00:36She is lying to Irene and everyone else so she can take their money, and that's a crime,
00:40right?
00:41Do you have any evidence that you can give me?
00:43Anything solid I can act on?
00:44No, I don't.
00:45Well, if that changes, come and talk to me.
00:47But right now, maybe you need to let this go.
00:49What if things were reversed?
00:50If I was yelling and treating someone like this?
00:52Yeah, well, if the situation was reversed, I would trust you and I would support you.
00:55No, not if you thought that I was attacking them for no good reason.
00:57I have a good reason.
00:58I'm telling the truth.
00:59And we'll prove that she's taking you all for right, and when I do, I would like you
01:02to remember this moment.
01:11Ronti.
01:13Hey.
01:15Sorry, um, sorry for before about Dana.
01:18I tried to talk to her again.
01:20Let me guess.
01:21No luck?
01:23No.
01:24Unfortunately.
01:25This is a mess.
01:27And I couldn't get the flowers for Irene.
01:28The shop was shut.
01:30Don't worry about that.
01:32Are you okay?
01:34Yeah, when I get stressed, my symptoms get worse.
01:38Maybe we should try and get some water.
01:41Yeah, yeah.
01:42It's happening more and more as my illness progresses.
01:45Here, come on.
01:46Let me give you this.
01:49You good?
01:50Yeah.
01:51Thanks.
01:57Hey.
01:58Hey.
01:59Did they call you in last minute?
02:00Oh, no.
02:01Just here to change a shift.
02:02Oh.
02:04How are things with Ronti?
02:06Uh, the same.
02:08You know, I don't trust her.
02:09Everybody else does.
02:11But there isn't anything I can really do about that.
02:13So I'm gonna let it go.
02:14Sounds like you're being reasonable.
02:16Do you want to grab coffee after my rounds?
02:18Yeah, I'll stay around when I'm done with the roster.
02:19Perfect.
02:27Hey.
02:33Hey.
02:35Hey.
02:53I say that we read this as a glass half full situation.
02:58Eden, who would want a half glass of anything?
03:00Where's my coffee?
03:02It's alright, I'll put the kettle on.
03:03Anybody else?
03:05No.
03:07What's up?
03:08Are you a cop yet?
03:10Look, I wish it was that simple.
03:12It's decided on a case-by-case basis and mine's still under review.
03:16But his call sped things up and he will get an answer by tonight.
03:21One way or another.
03:23Well, they'd be idiots not to take you back.
03:25There should be more cops like you.
03:27Thank you, Remy.
03:28I appreciate you saying that.
03:30Really?
03:32A two second pep talk from Remy and you're all hopeful again?
03:35She's just jealous of what there is between us.
03:37Look, I appreciate all of your encouragement, babe.
03:39But I just want an answer to put me out of my misery.
03:43Less of that talk.
03:45I know that it's all going to work out because…
03:48Because you have a crystal ball?
03:49Like what?
03:51Because I know things are going to get better.
03:56You deserve to have your job back.
03:58And that is exactly what is going to happen.
04:01I understand you want to help this girl, but remortgaging your house, that's a loss.
04:07John, it's my money.
04:09I can do with it what I want.
04:11So, just talk with Justin.
04:13It did take him a minute to come round, but he is happy to part with $25,000.
04:17Oh, love, that is great news.
04:19Are you donating to this too?
04:21Oi, stop your sticky beating.
04:23I think it's great that John knows.
04:25If word spreads, it'll encourage more people to help Bronte.
04:28Are you saying I've got a big mouth?
04:30Is that news to you, John?
04:32OK, you want my two cents worth?
04:34I believe that charity is a wonderful thing, but it should begin at home and ripple out very slowly.
04:40John, nothing is slower than watching you get your wallet out when the bill arrives.
04:45OK, I'm saying this as a friend.
04:47What you're doing is admirable, but it's above and beyond.
04:50But Bronte needs the money a lot more than we do.
04:53The poor thing's desperate.
04:55Are you sure Justin's on board with this?
04:57He is happy to use our savings for a worthy cause.
05:00I did also remind him that he once used our savings to buy a lyrics band.
05:04Look, Bronte doesn't deserve the hands she's been dealt,
05:08but there is a reason we sold away money for a rainy day.
05:11What are you whinging about now, Palmer?
05:13No, I'm just saying to Irene and Leah here that donating $25,000 to Bronte's fund is a bit much.
05:20Struth, why am I just hearing about this?
05:23Sure I can't get you something to eat?
05:25You're sweet, but my stomach isn't up to it. Peppermint tea's good, it'll help.
05:31How's your crowdfunding page going?
05:33Well, with Irene and Leah's money, I'll have almost $70,000.
05:38Wow, that's a huge difference.
05:41So I wait.
05:43What do you mean?
05:45Well, I mean we could book you a flight to Canada right now.
05:47How much better would you feel knowing you had a set date for your wedding?
05:50How much better would you feel knowing you had a set date to fly out on?
05:53Wouldn't you rather just jump on a plane now and just get started with your treatment straight away?
05:56It's not that simple.
05:58The treatment centre in Canada have demanded payment up front.
06:02That's pretty harsh.
06:04Sure, you could appeal to the doctors and just get them to make an exception.
06:07I've tried. I have begged.
06:10I've tried to explain how desperate I am and they won't budge.
06:15Sorry, I didn't mean to push.
06:17No, it's okay.
06:19I appreciate your help.
06:21I do.
06:23Your support means the world to me.
06:29That doesn't look like the roster.
06:33Like, should I even be asking you why you're researching Bronte Langford's medical records?
06:38Because someone has to expose her.
06:40Nina, anybody could have seen you doing this.
06:43No, I don't care. I don't. I'm doing this for Irene.
06:45You could get fired for this.
06:47Are you going to dog me in?
06:49I didn't say that.
06:51Good.
06:53Because there are no records of Bronte Langford anywhere in the rural districts.
06:57Because she's not being treated yet.
06:59She said that she got blood tests.
07:01This is the proof that she wasn't contaminated by the diner.
07:08She could have got those tests done at any facility.
07:11That's not proof.
07:13Yes, but if I was going to get more proof, I would have to look at every hospital in the state.
07:19Starting with the one she met Irene at.
07:22No.
07:24No!
07:25You're a doctor. You have the authority to request those records.
07:27I know you want me to risk my medical license.
07:29No, I want you to do the right thing.
07:43Alf, Tane's youth program needs your signature for the insurer.
07:47Yeah, yeah, I'll get to that.
07:49Listen, Palmer, do you reckon Irene and Leah are making a mistake donating this money?
07:54Let's just say Irene and Leah have big hearts.
07:56So you reckon they're being taken for a ride?
07:58Look, those two can be stubborn to say the very least.
08:01They're not going to change their minds, no matter what we think.
08:03For the first time, you might be right, Palmer.
08:05For the lady in question, I might introduce you.
08:08Bronte, meet Alf Stewart.
08:10Hi.
08:12I'm sorry to hear about your illness.
08:14Thank you.
08:16Feel free to donate to my crowdfunding page.
08:18I might just do that.
08:20Can I ask you something?
08:22Yeah, sure, if it won't take too long.
08:24This business with Irene and Leah donating all this money...
08:28What about it?
08:30Well, it's a pretty big ask, don't you think?
08:33I'm sorry, who are you?
08:35Alf, Irene and Leah go way back.
08:38And Alf's president of the club.
08:40Right.
08:42Sorry, I'm not feeling well, of course.
08:45They're your friends and you're just still looking out for them.
08:48That's OK.
08:50I do really need to go.
08:52But it was nice to meet you, Alf.
09:01I wouldn't read too much into that.
09:03Normally she's as sweet as pie.
09:05So I keep hearing.
09:07Now, where's this paperwork, Palmer?
09:09Onto it.
09:12OK.
09:16Oh, there's a consultation going on in here.
09:18Can you come back later?
09:20Thanks.
09:25Who did you find?
09:29You have to promise me that nobody will ever find out about this.
09:32Yeah, my wife, I swear.
09:35There are no medical records for Bronte Langford anywhere in the state.
09:39Yeah, I knew that.
09:41I knew it.
09:43I'm pleased one of us is happy about this.
09:45Brie, you don't see that this proves everything I've been saying?
09:48Yeah, but she could have been treated out of state.
09:50No, according to Irene, they met at a hospital in the city where she was getting tests done.
09:55OK, yeah, that raises a lot of questions.
09:57It explains why she wouldn't show you her pathology results.
10:00They're fake.
10:02Her whole illness is fake.
10:04I hear you.
10:06I do.
10:07I don't have enough proof you we can use.
10:09No, but I can see what she has to say about it.
10:12I think you need to tread carefully, yeah?
10:14Yeah, I will.
10:16Hang on, I've got to go.
10:21Well, working with divas, like the rest of Lyric, has taught me how to manage oversized egos.
10:26Oh, the irony.
10:28What about you? How's the soul gig going?
10:30Early days, but thanks to my charm and winning personality, I am rolling in the dips.
10:34Nice one.
10:36And are you playing nice with everyone?
10:38I haven't seen Mac, but when I do, I will deal with it.
10:42I'm proud of you, you know, for bearing the hatchet.
10:44Yeah, me too. That mustn't have been easy.
10:46Thanks.
10:48That's Rose. I've got to take this.
10:50Hey, Rose, what's up? Any news?
10:53He seems pretty invested in becoming a cop again.
10:56Yeah, I think there's his heart set on it.
10:59OK, what exactly do they say?
11:02Great. That's great. That's great. So I've just missed out.
11:05Yeah, OK, Rose. Thanks a lot for checking for me. Cheers. Bye.
11:10Missed out on what?
11:12Rose was just making some enquiries for me because there was no openings at the Abbey Creek station,
11:16so she looked into Reefton Lakes station for me.
11:18OK, what did she say?
11:20There's no vacancies there either.
11:22Does that mean what I think it does?
11:24It means I'm stuffed.
11:28Ah, poor sick Bronte.
11:32Poor sick Bronte.
11:34It's good that you're here, actually, because I've got some stuff I want to talk to you about.
11:40I'm not interested in whatever version of Deluded you're selling today.
11:44You are not sick.
11:46I get it.
11:48It must be hard knowing your boyfriend is completely supportive of me.
11:53I found proof.
11:55What are you talking about?
11:57I checked your medical records at Northern Districts and every hospital in the state, including the one where you met Irene.
12:04And guess what? No records exist.
12:08Well, it's obviously a mistake.
12:11Or maybe no records exist because your illness is a scam and you just need to give it up.
12:21Are you trying to come up with some elaborate cover story right now?
12:26First thing I'm going to do is make a formal complaint to your boss for trying to access my records and you'll be fired.
12:35No one's really going to care about that when you're exposed as a fraud.
12:39And who will believe you?
12:41You've got no friends, no allies, not even your sister or your boyfriend.
12:47I have proof now.
12:49You've got a whole lot of accusations and not much else.
12:53Tell me something.
12:55Has your big mouth ever gotten you into trouble before?
13:02If that's a threat, it's pathetic.
13:08It's absolutely a threat.
13:25Come on. Pick up.
13:29Chase, listen. That problem I warned you about, it just got worse.
13:34Fine. I'll push harder for the money, but I'm not going to let her ruin this for us.
13:39We need to shut her up.
13:55Isn't it clear to see by the way you fall so easily?
14:02Hey, Dana, you're a fan of bananas. These are a bit brown, but I think they're okay.
14:06Has something happened?
14:09It's Bronte.
14:11Still not seeing eye to eye, hey?
14:13No, it's more than that. I have found stuff that proves, basically, that she's a liar.
14:19Yeah, right. What sort of stuff?
14:21Well, I can't actually say, but that's only because I made a promise to someone that I wouldn't get them in trouble.
14:25But believe me, it's credible.
14:27Which you can't say?
14:29I don't know why I thought that you'd be the one person that would actually listen to me.
14:33I am listening. You don't think this is the jealousy thing popping up again?
14:37No, I don't. I don't, because I confronted her and she didn't even try to deny it.
14:41She's seriously scary, okay?
14:43Make it easy.
14:45I don't know why it is impossible to get anyone to listen to me.
14:47Look, I am your friend. I'm here for you.
14:50But I can't just say I believe in something without credibility.
14:53Then what do I do? What do I do? Because nobody is listening to me and I don't know where to go from here.
14:58Okay, come on, come on. Things can't be that bad. Come on, come on.
15:01Come on.
15:11Mr Stewart, isn't it? Sorry to interrupt. I just wanted to apologise again for being a bit off earlier.
15:18That's alright, love. Can't be easy living with an illness like yours.
15:23That's no excuse for rudeness. Can I buy you a dessert as an apology?
15:28Look, that's not necessary. And I hear you're trying to raise all the money you can.
15:33This is true.
15:35Well, you keep your dough, eh?
15:37You're sweet. I hope I see you around.
15:39Hey.
15:40How are you feeling?
15:42Hanging in there. I don't suppose you've had a chance to speak to your husband?
15:46Justin has agreed to donate, so I will transfer the money to the crowdfunding page tonight.
15:52Thank you.
15:54Your generosity blows me away.
15:56No, of course.
16:00Love, about that. I've spoken to the bank. I can get the money to you, no problem.
16:06It just might take a bit of time. Sorry, it's all that refinance and red tape.
16:12Of course. Yes, no. It's not your fault.
16:15Love, shouldn't you be at home resting?
16:18Yeah, I would go back, but I don't want to make things worse.
16:22What do you mean?
16:24Dana.
16:26God, is she still giving you a hard time?
16:29She has made it very clear that she doesn't want me around.
16:34It really does feel like one of us has to move out.
16:36No. No one is going anywhere.
16:39I'll be home in a couple of hours. I'll sort it out. Okay?
16:43Okay. Thanks. I'll see you at home.
16:46See you, love.
16:48Step it up. Table four need their drinks.
16:51You seem to be confused by the pecking order around here.
16:53My best mate's co-owner, so it kind of switches up the hierarchy.
16:56Oh, excuse me.
16:58Hey, I was joking. I'm sorry.
17:02Oh. Order's all ready.
17:04Thanks.
17:06Is Dana working tonight?
17:08You haven't spoken to her?
17:10No. We're sort of having issues.
17:12Oh.
17:13You haven't spoken to her?
17:15No. We're sort of having issues.
17:17Just tired of her giving Bronte a hard time.
17:19Dana's having a hard time too. Maybe try reaching out to her?
17:22Yeah, I've tried.
17:24I'll try again.
17:26Thank you. Good luck.
17:43Hey. Who's your friend?
17:46Chase. We go way back.
17:49Told him all about your snooping.
17:52Right. Well, you must be devastated.
17:55Knowing your good friend's so close to dying.
17:57I see what you mean about that mouth of hers.
18:01Irene's going to be home soon.
18:03Irene will be at the diner until late.
18:05Well, she wouldn't want anyone staying.
18:08Well, Chase is going to be home.
18:10Well, she wouldn't want anyone staying.
18:12Well, Chase isn't staying.
18:16Let's get this done.
18:20So you've done this before?
18:22Ripped off innocent people?
18:24Twice. Irene's my third mark.
18:26Never have met anyone as annoying and nosy as you, though.
18:32Well, I knew you were a suss from the start.
18:35Congratulations. Want to know what your prize is?
18:38Give it back! I'm not going to be intimidated by either of you.
18:42Me and that mouth again.
18:44So let's shut her up.
18:46Help! Help! No!
18:48Help!
18:50Help!
19:05Hey.
19:07I wish you'd stayed longer at Sol.
19:09I get it.
19:14Whatever the police decide, we will figure it out together.
19:19They called me an hour ago.
19:21And?
19:23They want me back.
19:25Babe, that's fantastic.
19:27And they've offered me a return at my previous rank.
19:30Senior Constable. Babe, that is wonderful.
19:33What?
19:35Why are you not happy?
19:38There's a condition.
19:40I have to take a posting at Mangrove River.
19:44So?
19:46It's the worst police station in the whole state.
19:54Seriously?
19:56Seriously.
20:03Hey, honey, my love.
20:05Hi.
20:07Oh boy, you'd think after all these years I'd be used to being on my feet all day.
20:11I am exhausted.
20:14Oh, listen to me banging on. How are you?
20:16Yeah, so-so.
20:18Just don't have the energy I used to.
20:20Oh, love, I'm so sorry.
20:22You feel like a cuppa?
20:24Yeah, I could try.
20:26Some toast too?
20:28Yep, coming up.
20:30Have you seen the girls?
20:32I haven't seen Harper, but Dana actually packed a bag and left a while ago.
20:36Oh, did she say where she was going?
20:38No, I asked. All she said was, away from you.
20:47Love, I hate to say it, but, you know, maybe a bit of time away from each other mightn't be a bad thing.
20:56Yeah.
21:10Did you get a chance to talk to Dana last night?
21:12Actually, no. She's gone away.
21:14Seriously? Oh, because we had a fight?
21:17What's wrong?
21:19Oh, I just still haven't heard from Dana.
21:21Oh, I have. I just spoke to her.
21:23What did she say?
21:24That she's fine and that she'll be back in a few days.
21:27She's talking to Bronte now and not you.
21:29Something doesn't feel right.
21:31No, I haven't done all of this work to cut and run now. It is one more day.
21:34Once we have this money, we will be done with this place.
