00:00Previously on Neighbours.
00:02Let me explain!
00:03How you let the woman who tried to kill me get away?
00:05I can't be close to somebody who's involved in something so dangerous.
00:09He better be keeping a low profile.
00:11If Andrew or our mums find out that we're secretly letting Tay stay here,
00:14we're gonna get grounded for life.
00:15Want one?
00:19I'm in love with Leo.
00:20You need to leave.
00:21Leo, there's something-
00:22No, no, please, let me finish.
00:23Surprise!
00:24Fallon's my little sister.
00:25My guess?
00:26She won't say anything.
00:27She won't keep her options open.
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 become good friends
01:21Everything okay?
01:23Didn't Thuggy say pretty girls don't cry?
01:25It's big girls.
01:26And didn't Fallon say please stop hitting on me?
01:29I'm gonna guess you're Fallon.
01:31I'm Tay.
01:32And I was just trying to make you smile.
01:34You seem sad.
01:36I am.
01:38Relationship issues.
01:40Oh, hers are the worst.
01:42I haven't been back home.
01:45Times three.
01:47Impressive.
01:49Yeah, but I still win.
01:51I'm gonna need more details.
01:54Telling a stranger your problems is like an Australian tradition.
01:59Nice try, but I'm not in the market for anything.
02:02Hey!
02:04I'm just a guy.
02:06New to town.
02:08Trying to make a friend.
02:12Come on.
02:14Have a drink with me.
02:15And sing me the rest of your
02:17don't hit on me song.
02:20Sound like a bop.
02:24Why not?
02:25Either way.
02:46Max's banana.
02:48I was thinking maybe we could take it to him at work
02:50and maybe get a drink at the tram.
02:53Um...
02:55A drink sounds good,
02:56but the tram feels too much like work.
02:58And Max can't peel a banana right now,
03:01so the waterhole.
03:02Yeah.
03:03Um, cool.
03:04Well, I'm ready whenever you are and
03:06Sadie's at work, so...
03:07Great, I'll just grab my stuff.
03:09What is it?
03:10Um...
03:12Krista
03:13giving me a heads up that Lasseter's looking for a piano bar manager.
03:16That's a sweet gig.
03:17And you've done bartending before, right?
03:19Well, no, but I know how to make a mean cocktail
03:21and I know the hotel and I'll just figure out the rest.
03:25Ah!
03:27So let me get this straight.
03:28You were dating this guy for six months
03:30behind your sister's back?
03:31It wasn't a secret, it's just we were
03:33on opposite sides of the world.
03:35Then you pop the question and he disappears without a trace.
03:38Then I find him here,
03:39attached to her lips.
03:41Brutal.
03:43You said they've known each other for years.
03:46Best friends.
03:47Total partiers, though.
03:49I thought he'd changed.
03:50Why haven't you confronted your sister yet?
03:52There's another complication.
03:53She's engaged to someone else.
03:56She can't be that into her fiancé if she's kissing your ex.
03:59Exactly.
04:01I can't make any sense of it.
04:03Serious question.
04:05Do you like her?
04:07I actually don't know her that well.
04:09Snap.
04:10I can relate to that.
04:12Back to you.
04:15Actually, what would you do if you were me?
04:18Sit back and see what happens before you speak up.
04:21You think?
04:22Knowledge is power.
04:24And you're the one holding the cards.
04:26So maybe keep it that way until you figure out
04:28what you want from the situation.
04:35Only me?
04:37Andrew.
04:38This all looks a lot worse than it is.
04:42Your mums and I agreed to let you and Dex stay here on your own
04:45because we trusted that you could handle the responsibility.
04:48No, no, we can.
04:49It's just a bit of a learning curve,
04:51so we thought we'd have time to pack up.
04:55Yeah, right.
04:58It should never really get to this point.
05:01I mean, imagine if your mums came home to this.
05:03No, they won't.
05:04I'm going to go sort this out now,
05:06and they're not back for another two days.
05:07What?
05:08I'm going to give you two hours.
05:10Once this place is clean, just keep it nice.
05:14Yeah, two hours.
05:15Try two minutes.
05:17But I promise, this won't happen again.
05:20Righto, mate.
05:32I still can't believe that you're here.
05:34Revolving door visitors for you.
05:36Yeah, well, at least with Seb gone,
05:38the spare room is all yours.
05:39For as long as you need it.
05:40We still have so much to catch up on.
05:41We do.
05:42Whereabouts in Europe are you based?
05:44Mykonos. Before that, I was travelling.
05:48Hey, I wanted to say thanks for the heads up about the piano bar.
05:51Of course, I said I'd keep you in the loop.
05:53Just a fair warning, though,
05:54there's a lot of really strong applicants.
05:56Well, I love a bit of competition.
05:58I'm not up against you, am I?
06:00Oh, sorry, this is my sister, Fallon.
06:02Hang on, little sister?
06:03Yeah, on my mum's side.
06:04I'm Byron.
06:05I actually used to date Krista's sister on the dad's side.
06:10I'm Holly, Krista's future piano bar manager and coolest friend.
06:14OK, as long as we're all getting to know each other,
06:16drinks are on me.
06:19Hey, do you have a minute?
06:22I just wanted to check in to make sure you're OK
06:24and apologising again for my part and everything.
06:27Hey, I heard Seb's gone.
06:29What happened there?
06:31I don't want to talk about it.
06:33I don't love that you knew about Yaz.
06:36But I'm moving on, so I just wanted to put it all to bed, OK?
06:40Thanks.
06:52I'll grab that.
06:54Oh, cheers.
06:58What do you want?
06:59I was just chucking on that bench.
07:00Chucking on that bench, yeah.
07:02Thanks again, man.
07:03I'm not really winning at work at the moment, hey?
07:07Wouldn't being able to use your hands be a job requirement
07:09to be a mechanic?
07:10Ah, you know, limited jobs, just getting by.
07:12How'd you hurt them?
07:13Got electrocuted.
07:15That sucks.
07:16Yeah.
07:18It's not just work, either.
07:19I'm struggling to cook, shower, dress myself.
07:23Can't even play foosball.
07:25I'd go without working, cooking, bathing,
07:27or even wearing clothes, but foosball!
07:29Yeah, right.
07:31You got my condolences.
07:37Gotta head.
07:39I hope you recover quick.
07:41Thanks again, man.
07:45What?
07:46No burgers?
07:47Your poor uncle didn't get a freebie?
07:50Me and Jay don't know that guy.
07:52You didn't say anything to him about us, did you?
07:55Ah, funnily enough, I didn't tell the random mechanic dude
07:58my life story.
08:01It's just we have to be careful.
08:03We don't want anyone laughing to Andrew.
08:06Have you talked to anyone else?
08:08I'm a social creature, but I'm a way you guys
08:10know every man and his dog.
08:12So I'm not going to say anything to anyone
08:13that would connect me with you.
08:16Look what I got.
08:18Let's go home.
08:20I could murder a fruity cocktail.
08:23You are speaking my language.
08:25Sorry, was that insensitive of me?
08:26What? Not at all.
08:28It's not hard for you to be in this environment?
08:30No, I'm fine.
08:31See you at the table.
08:34Hey, you don't have to worry.
08:35She's sober.
08:37I didn't mean to sound heavy-handed.
08:39It's cool you weren't.
08:40Last time I saw Krista, she was partying pretty hard.
08:45Look, Krista will be the first one to tell you
08:47she's had some challenges.
08:49Prelapses.
08:51She's in a really great place now.
08:53And I mean, Leo's the perfect guy for her.
08:56He picks her up when she falls.
08:58That kind of thing.
09:00Because that's the kind of guy I'm looking for.
09:02I guess you could say that.
09:04He adores her.
09:05It's actually a little bit sickening.
09:22Be cool.
09:26Dex, what's going on?
09:28About to geek out with this guy.
09:30He's from my coding course.
09:32G'day.
09:33He's just going to load a program onto my laptop.
09:36Alright, well, when you're done with that, mate,
09:38you've got a bit of cleaning to do in there.
09:40I'm not stoked with the state of that place.
09:42Yeah, sorry.
09:43Just tidy up and lift up your game until your parents get home.
09:47Then we're good.
09:48Got it.
09:49I'm working tonight, so I'm going to trust
09:51that both of you stay out of trouble.
09:53Yeah, totally.
09:56Alright.
09:57See ya.
10:00See ya.
10:01See ya.
10:05Geek out.
10:06Love it.
10:09That Andrew guy's a bit uptight, though.
10:12Yeah, he's just following orders.
10:14Not exactly shocked to learn your ma's bossing cops around now.
10:18So, did you two go to the same boarding school,
10:19or were you shipped off somewhere else?
10:21Neither. I went to public school.
10:22Yeah, sister from another mister, remember?
10:25Very different lifestyle.
10:26Yeah, Valen here actually comes from a functional family.
10:29Not true, I'd call her mom functional.
10:31Yeah, true.
10:32We should swap stories on her later, by the way.
10:35Bet you were jealous of this princess
10:36jetting around the world using cash as toilet paper.
10:39Uh, okay, I object to so many things than that.
10:42Classy as always, Hoyland.
10:45I don't really think about it.
10:46Well, if anyone should be jealous, it's me.
10:49I mean, your dad was so there.
10:51He was so invested in your life.
10:53He'd have loved that kind of support from my dad.
10:59Since the warden's working tonight,
11:00how about I invite over a few mates?
11:02You don't know anyone here.
11:03I know people everywhere.
11:05Crowd flock to the coast all the time,
11:06and I make friends easily.
11:08Especially with girls, right?
11:09Hey, you know it.
11:11Hey, it'll be super chill.
11:13A couple people.
11:15I'll get some more drinks, dip in the pool.
11:19Music.
11:21Quiet music.
11:23Pizza.
11:25I like the sound of that.
11:27I don't know.
11:28Like, it sounds fun,
11:30but if anyone found out, I'm totally out of lives.
11:32Like, any more trouble and I'm dead.
11:34Knock, knock.
11:43Hi, boys, I forgot to let you know
11:44that it is bin day tomorrow,
11:46so be there or be square.
11:49I'll chuck this over the back.
11:50Oh, you can just leave that here.
11:51Alright.
11:53Alright.
12:12Looks like you need help again.
12:15Dex said he knew.
12:16He didn't say he lived next door.
12:17Yeah, bro, what are you doing in my backyard?
12:20Hiding from the fun police,
12:21who's also the literal police.
12:23Same with my nephews.
12:25Well, their mums are away
12:26and they don't want this Andrew guy to know.
12:29JJ and Dex are your nephews?
12:30Yeah, I'm Rumi's brother.
12:32But she can't know I'm laying low either.
12:37You've got a free sport table.
12:38That's sweet.
12:39Yeah, bro, listen.
12:41You did me a solid
12:42and you seem like an okay guy,
12:45so I'm going to give you a chance
12:46to explain exactly what's going on here.
12:50Well, I was
12:52having a few issues in Apollo Bay.
12:59So how's the jet lag?
13:01I'm pushing through.
13:02It's been a big day for you too.
13:04Yeah, you could say that.
13:08I'm guessing you got to know Seb pretty well?
13:12Enough, I guess.
13:14See, that makes me feel like
13:16there's a story I'm missing.
13:19If I'm being honest,
13:20I didn't really like the guy.
13:23That can't have been easy.
13:24He's Christa's oldest friend.
13:27Well, she's given him his marching orders, so.
13:30Did they have a fight?
13:32Sorry, I should ask Christa all that.
13:35No, no, no, it's fine.
13:37She hasn't actually told me much about it,
13:38but I'm happy with that.
13:42Okay, clean sheets are on the bed.
13:44Thanks.
13:45And if you need anything else,
13:46you just tell me, okay?
13:47And I'll tell housekeeping.
13:48Okay.
13:51Woo!
13:52What were you two talking about?
13:54She was just asking about Seb.
13:58You know what?
14:00Let's never mention his name again, okay?
14:03Okay.
14:04That suits me just fine.
14:13Hey.
14:14Great timing.
14:16Having a few people over for drinks.
14:17Helpful?
14:18Thanks, but I'm not in the mood.
14:20Hey, I thought Tay said pretty girls don't cry.
14:22My sister hasn't changed.
14:24What's the latest?
14:26She still hasn't told her fiancé about kissing my ex.
14:29Maybe she was just trying to find the right moment.
14:31They both agreed to close the subject.
14:33She obviously wants to sweep the whole thing under the carpet.
14:36That sucks, man.
14:38He's a really nice guy.
14:40Maybe you should tell her your history.
14:43I'm not ready.
14:45At this point, it's all so humiliating.
14:49So now you know all this,
14:51what are you going to do?
14:53I'm not sure.
14:55I want to give her the benefit of the doubt.
14:57But?
14:59She's had everything handed to her in life.
15:01Now she's got this great guy and she's lying to him.
15:05Maybe my sister is just a bad human.
15:12Got this from the backyard.
15:14Your mate Chook's got the four-pilots going.
15:16Who?
15:17Your mate, Chook.
15:19He's outside floating on a blow-up sheep he rocked up with.
15:21Classic Chook.
15:23You don't know Chook, do you?
15:25Nah, must be a buzzword.
15:27But let's get this party started!
15:29Hang on, before that, I've got some rules.
15:31Me first.
15:33Never take candy from a stranger.
15:35Unless candy's hot and a stranger hasn't put a meal in it.
15:37Alright boss, what do you got?
15:39I really need everyone to be respectful.
15:41So that means keeping the music down,
15:43no glass in the pool, no eating without plates.
15:45No eating without plates?
15:47Just no mess, alright?
15:49Yeah, yeah, got it.
15:51I never thought I'd have a problem holding my drink, but yeah.
15:54Lucky beer got the slam.
15:56Oh guys, I'm kidding, it's just me.
15:58You said you wouldn't say anything to anyone that would connect us.
16:01Here by the neighbourhood?
16:03Only because he busted me in his backyard when I was hiding from Andrew.
16:06Hold on, you didn't need to hide from Andrew
16:08because he saw you come in and you didn't need to tell Max you're staying here.
16:11What was I supposed to say?
16:13Oh, I've just started stealing the jocks off your line.
16:15Jocks off your line?
16:17Guys, come on, I could do with blowing off some steam.
16:20Alright, I'm not going to dog, don't worry, I live with you.
16:23Busted man, sealed lips.
16:26Guess I'll just have to see Pete then.
16:32Let's get our takeaway and take it back to mine to eat.
16:35Nah, let's go mine, say the clock's off soon.
16:37Well, she can just come straight to mine.
16:39Oh, she won't get out of her uniform?
16:41Well, she can do that and then she can join us.
16:43Alright.
16:45You want to tell me why you're avoiding Max?
16:48Uh, that is not a thing that's happening.
16:50Hmm?
16:52I've just been over at your place a lot lately and I don't want to impose.
16:55Since when have you had a problem with imposing?
16:57And also, that doesn't explain why you've been staying away from Power Row.
17:01Look, you and Max, you've been getting on like, really well.
17:05I'm just trying to understand why this whole sudden turnaround.
17:08Okay, fine.
17:12There's a bit of a vibe between us.
17:15No, I don't want to feed into it, okay?
17:17I need to focus on getting myself together.
17:19So I'm going to do the smart thing for once in my life and stay away from potential mess.
17:24Okay, I get it.
17:26You've got to look after you, but you can't avoid Max forever.
17:29Hey, you two.
17:31A little heads up about the party would be nice.
17:34What party?
17:35There's music blaring from your side of the street.
17:37Oh, it's not us.
17:50Hey man, Byron just texted me asking what I'm up to.
17:53Should I invite him?
17:55No, no, definitely no.
17:57We can't have people not on taste here, remember?
17:59Yeah, right.
18:01Sorry, I just thought Byron's pretty good at keeping things together.
18:03Yeah.
18:05Say two words and I will guess your star sign.
18:08But it would help if the two words are the birth month and the star sign for that month.
18:13Sorry, can I just borrow a tape for a sec?
18:17I was just kind of in the middle of something.
18:19I thought you said you only asked a few people over.
18:21I only invited a handful.
18:23The rest are randos.
18:25But like fun randos.
18:27A few hot randos.
18:29It's on, I've enrolled it.
18:30I'm glad you're happy because I'm not.
18:32How are there so many people here?
18:34I think I heard someone say they posted the address online.
18:36Seriously?
18:38Really?
18:40We might have been able to get away with a little thing.
18:42But not this.
18:44Everyone knows everyone around here.
18:46This will get back to mum.
18:48Do you recognise any of these?
18:50These are the sort of people that would hang out with your parents.
18:54So there's nothing to worry about.
18:57Just chill.
18:58Like a little bird.
19:00Chug.
19:02You better get that down.
19:17Where's Leo?
19:19He's with his daughter, Abby.
19:21He has a daughter?
19:23Yeah, I'm going to be a step mum.
19:25Officially, that is.
19:26Officially, that is.
19:29Hey, I'm ...
19:33I'm really glad that you're here.
19:35Even though there's so much going on with sub-leaving?
19:38I just feel like you've come back into my life for a reason.
19:43And I don't know, maybe you feel the same way.
19:48I know I haven't been very present in your life up until now.
19:54Feels like this is our time.
19:56Yeah.
20:06Alright, guys. Guys, I'm calling it now.
20:08It's time to get going now, please.
20:10Don't listen to him. He is no fun.
20:14How many of those you had?
20:15Not enough.
20:16You're drunk.
20:17You're boring.
20:19Come play beer pong.
20:21Okay, look.
20:23You don't need to worry.
20:24If Andrew comes in, I have a cover story.
20:26Oh, really?
20:27Oh, this will be good?
20:28What?
20:29Okay, we will tell him.
20:30These are all people from our coding course.
20:33And we need to load a program onto my laptop.
20:35It worked before.
20:36It can work again.
20:38Easy peasy.
20:41The place is trashed.
20:42Chuck just knocked himself out, crushing a can on his head because it was full.
20:45One guy, one guy did a finger painting on the fence,
20:48and there's no paint on his finger's decks.
20:50Not a single, single finger has any paint on it.
20:54These people are feral.
20:55They are animals.
20:56Nobody's forsaking this for a computer club study session.
20:59It is pretty cool, though.
21:00Give that to me now.
21:01No, get your own.
21:02Hee hee, hee hee.
21:05I have an important announcement to make.
21:08It is...
21:10Noodle Club!
21:12Everybody on the floor!
21:20Woo!
21:33Coming up on Neighbours.
21:36Jane, you do know that you can always change your mind about not going there.
21:39Why would I change my mind?
21:41Well, you just don't seem happy.
21:43Our gathering was not meant to get out of hand.
21:45Well, you shouldn't have been having a gathering.
21:47Tay, get out here and stop hiding.
