00:00Previously on Neighbours.
00:02You'd think I was a terrible mother or was still no mother at all.
00:05Surely Darcy's are upstepping.
00:06Stop looking for things that aren't there, Carl.
00:08Uh, you should come to our dinner tonight.
00:09Please. It'll be really fun.
00:11I really do want to support you.
00:13Look, I know you're trying to prioritise our relationship,
00:16but I will never trust Chelsea.
00:18You're being really unfair.
00:19Why? Because I don't want to just move to Murrayville.
00:21Seth is not the only victim in this,
00:23and I'm going to do everything in my power
00:24to make sure that the court knows that.
00:25The school's finally bearable again.
00:27What's that smell?
00:30Neighbours
00:33Everybody needs good neighbours
00:37With a little understanding
00:42You can find the perfect plan
00:48Neighbours
00:51Should be there for one another
00:55That's when good neighbours
00:59I'll be trying to do what it says
01:05I'm studying remotely from now on.
01:07I'm not coming back here. I can't.
01:09Oh, no.
01:11What are you going to do about this?
01:12Well, I will support Nell studying remotely
01:14and I'm also determined to find and punish the culprence.
01:18You know, is it worth looking at other schools?
01:20No.
01:21I'm not doing that.
01:22I just want to stay at home until things settle.
01:25I'll see out the rest of the day, talk to my teachers,
01:28and that is it. I am done.
01:30Hey, do you want to go grab some air?
01:32I'll be okay for the rest of the day. Thanks for coming in.
01:40Are you sure that this is the right thing to do?
01:48I think we should respect Nell's wishes.
01:50I'm going to go and talk to the faculty and get started on the paperwork.
01:58Listen, Gerard, please understand that I never meant to hurt Nell when I went to the police.
02:03I just, I had to clear Leo's name before it was too late.
02:06I would have done the same thing if I was in your position, please.
02:10But what am I going to do now?
02:12Nell was just starting to feel positive again.
02:14How am I going to get her through this?
02:16Hey, hey, hey.
02:18You have a plan.
02:20You're going to try and get the charges dropped.
02:22Well, that's not going to make her feel any better
02:24whilst we wait for the hearing.
02:26Actually, you know what?
02:28I've got an idea.
02:30I think I know somebody who could help.
02:32I'm at capacity for consults throughout the week.
02:36Handball a few to me.
02:38Oh, hey.
02:40You are welcome.
02:42Oh, thank you.
02:43Um, I forgot about this.
02:45If it had sparkled, you would not have seen it for dust.
02:48Finders keepers.
02:50Unless, of course, the find is unappealing.
02:54No offence, Peter.
02:56Uh, something wrong?
03:01Uh, I guess we're just surprised that you left a bracelet in Amanda's studio.
03:06I took it off so I could wash a few dishes for her.
03:09When I walked her back from dinner with Jane?
03:11I mean, is that a crime?
03:13Well, just the fact that you went to that dinner.
03:16You don't want it to look like you're forming an inappropriate relationship.
03:19Am I being judged here?
03:21Because Harold was at your place all the time.
03:24And he was a resident-
03:25Harold is a very old friend of ours.
03:27What is it going to take to win your trust?
03:30Both of you.
03:32I've reached out to others that I hurt.
03:35Tess.
03:36And Dee.
03:37And, you know, at least they gave me an inch.
03:42So now you've had some time to think about it.
03:53Um, I, uh, I can't stop thinking of reasons not to move.
04:01I love my job and I'm due for a promotion, but the major thing for me is Sadie.
04:09I think she really needs her parents right now.
04:12Yeah, but don't underestimate her.
04:14I mean, the way she's handled this trauma and now the recovery.
04:18Sadie's a real force.
04:20No, I agree.
04:21I just think she's, uh, still really fragile.
04:25Is Sadie the real reason that you don't want to move?
04:33Or has your career got something to do with it?
04:35And be honest.
04:36Well, look, if my career was the only factor, I think we'd be having a very different conversation.
04:41I think we really need to put family first.
04:47Team Robwell, right?
04:54Hey, you!
04:55Hey, good to have you back in town.
04:58Um, how's Nell doing?
05:00Yeah, not great.
05:01Actually, that's what I've come to talk to you about.
05:08Thanks.
05:11What's up, buttercup?
05:14I've just been given a relief shift teaching 16-year-old boys P.E.
05:19Oh, hey, that could be fun.
05:21You know, get some fresh air, chuck a ball around, blow a whistle.
05:26Uh, get teased, pranked, farted on.
05:29Okay, that sounds not as fun.
05:33That's not all though, is it?
05:35I've just been given this amazing full-time job in Murrayville and Andrew won't even consider moving.
05:45He says it's about Sadie, but I know that it's about his job.
05:50He thinks his career is more important than mine.
05:53Oh, that is just...
05:57What were you gonna say?
05:58No, I was just gonna trash talk your man, but I resisted the urge.
06:02No, no, no, no, don't. On my account.
06:04Well, who the hell does he think he is?
06:07Okay, how many times have you ironed his uniform, packed his lunches, polished his baton?
06:13How many nights have you sat at home worried about him?
06:17So many.
06:18He changes your moments and he's not giving it to you. He's job-blocking you.
06:24That is exactly what he's doing.
06:25Why should your career be sidelined? Because you're the wife.
06:29The woman!
06:30The woman!
06:31You should grab the bull by the horns, grab your man by whatever makes him squeal the loudest.
06:37And you should...
06:39Oh!
06:41Go.
06:42Get.
06:43It.
06:45Girl!
06:47Yeah, yes!
06:48Yes!
06:50Thanks, Nick.
06:51I needed that.
06:52You're welcome.
06:54Okay, sounds good.
06:55Listen, Toad, when you spoke to Dee yesterday, did she know Darcy had moved back to her husband?
07:03Oh, of course she hasn't spoken to her for years. I knew it.
07:06Okay.
07:07Yeah, it's very interesting.
07:10Mm-hmm. Yeah.
07:11Uh, can I call you back?
07:16Yep.
07:17Is everything okay?
07:19Not really, no.
07:21I'm trying to feed our little guy, but he's just not interested.
07:26You feel how hot he is.
07:28Oh, gosh, yeah.
07:31Uh, well, have you still got any of that paracetamol?
07:33That seems to be worked well last time he had a fever.
07:36Oh, this, this is different.
07:38Oh, Remy, Remy.
07:40Hi.
07:42What's happening?
07:43Could you have a look at Thomas?
07:44He seems to have a high temperature.
07:45He's not feeding.
07:46He's listless.
07:48Yeah.
07:50Hey, little mate.

09:31why do i think it was a good idea to stay out the day
09:34do you want to go home i only just got here what are you doing here um i was feeling nostalgic
09:48you weren't here yeah i was enrolled and i had the uniform
09:54okay your dad sent me of course he did i think because he knows that i went through something similar
09:59okay um once upon a time there was a evil podcasting goblin who set her sights on a beautiful
10:13innocent girl and made her out to be a cold-blooded killer that beautiful innocent girl was me
10:20i'm just setting the scene i thought that the whole world was talking about hellfire holly
10:26watching me staring at me i wanted to crawl into a hole and disappear and i basically did when you
10:36quit the job but then a evil hotel tycoon dude who was on a break from villainy got into my ear
10:48and told me to own my past and hold my head up high the evil hotel tycoon dude's paul robinson we know we
10:55know but it was surprisingly good advice and so i wanted to pay it forward look it's really sweet
11:03that you're trying to help but this is different i don't want to hide forever just want some time out
11:10then hmm there every girl here knows the importance of saying what i want and what i don't want
11:16and that's what i'm doing right now okay i'm not telling you to stay in school that's not what this is
11:23i just wanted to talk to you do you want to start with what happened today
11:32do you have any idea who did it because i have a can of hairspray at the ready
11:40you look amazing for your age thank you this is nothing compared to when i was younger
11:47i used to turn heads i bet you did people used to call me i don't know vain shallow even but i wore it
11:58as a badge of honor i was proud to be pretty and you still should be proud i don't know every time i
12:05look in the mirror all i see are wrinkles i do my best to keep myself nice but it's not the same
12:12i used to feel pretty too before my accident i was burnt in a fire and my body
12:22i'm just not really sure who i am anymore oh sweetheart i know it sounds petty because
12:27i should just be grateful to be alive and it could have been worse but it's how you feel
12:34i understand completely
12:42do you still think about how he's died
12:48yeah all the time
12:53hey it gets easier though
12:56the nightmares have stopped and i'm not so anxious
12:58trauma might have changed my life but it didn't stop me from living it
13:05well i'm really glad it's that way for you but i can't see myself ever being okay again
13:14i just wish this never happened
13:20i'm so sorry babe
13:21you can't change the past
13:30and you can't control what people think of you
13:35but you can control what you think of yourself
13:39if i could give you one piece of advice
13:42it would be to have compassion for you
13:44you just like with me and he this was an accident and we're survivors this wasn't our fault
14:14thomas's temperature is climbing and with his weak reflexes there's a possibility it's listeriosis
14:20what does that mean it's a bacterial infection but if caught early enough it should be easily
14:24treated with no long-term effects and if not it can lead to more serious conditions such as sepsis or meningitis
14:35how would he have gotten this oh there's no way to really know but our focus now is on
14:40treatment i've ordered tests as soon as results come in we can treat accordingly if it's what we think it is
14:46we'll administer high dose antibiotics which should stave off the infection within 24 hours
14:51and then he'll be okay
14:54there's no way to really know until then
15:05we'll be right back to the next week
15:09my best friend in my youth sarah she never embraced her beauty
15:15she was always on the sidelines i mean always the photographer never the one to pose
15:21she was shy no she was shamed her mother thought that vanity was a sin
15:27so she kept chipping away at sarah's self-confidence
15:30until eventually i flipped and i said mother my looks are nothing to be ashamed of
15:39they are my superpower and from that point forward i never let anybody clip my wings again
15:48do you realize she slipped into first person pronouns halfway through
15:51i suppose you've heard stories about old nan mangle
16:00the point of the story is you know life is too damn short to worry about what other people think
16:07embrace your beauty and your scars and all and maybe sarah will embrace her wrinkles in solidarity
16:16maybe hello hello trouble i know i was in the area and i thought if you're ready i might escort you home
16:24oh thank you that would be wonderful
16:28i am so lucky to have met so many wonderful people in such a short time you're not so bad yourself
16:37oh hey i knew it i knew darcy was lying he's trying to pull the wall over our eyes right
16:48susan i'm talking to you here this is important oh sorry sorry sorry i'm reading agnes's manuscript
16:54it's fascinating i think darcy's behavior warrants more attention than agnes's manuscript darcy was right
16:59we were being unfair we do have personal relationships with the residents just just let it go
17:05oh hi hello lily with an apology gift oh i'm sorry that i was so snippy with you about my mother she
17:15just gets all so riled oh no need for apologies i do understand how difficult family dynamics can be
17:22shall we go outside and have a glass of that oh sure i mean i know i should be using this time to
17:28reconnect with mum but oh it's so difficult oh well you know if you ever need to do
17:45okay
18:00holy was right i shouldn't make my life smaller just because people don't understand
18:07it was an accident and i'm a survivor i'm gonna go to school tomorrow

19:42no
19:43Okay, positions, vacant, location, um, okay, great working conditions, yeah, scope for
20:10advancement. Yeah, hi, just calling about the advertised position, yeah, just wanted some
20:29additional information on the role. Here we go. Thank you. Tea? Oh, I wouldn't say no.
20:36Oh, make yourself a turn. Thank you. Um, this morning, do you realise that you, you called
20:45me Peter? Did I? That was your husband's name, wasn't it? Yes, yes, he's always on my mind.
20:56Maybe that explains the slip of the tongue. I miss my Darcy so much. Oh look, I was wondering
21:06whether you could help me with some life admin work. Susan wants my BSB number. Could you
21:12find it? Oh, yeah, absolutely. Not that there's much of a nest egg there. Maybe enough for a
21:19couple of years here and the odd mani pedi. Won't be raining money on my family when I carc it.
21:26Oh. Oh.
21:28Would you still like me if I'm poor?
21:56Oh, I like you very much.
22:10Remy's confirmed that it is listeriosis.
22:12The doctors are hoping they've gotten onto it early enough to avoid life-long repercussions.
22:18Yeah, so the next 24 hours are really critical.
22:21Oh.
22:23Oh, I'm really sorry. The hospital has a strict policy.
22:26Until he's out of the woods, it's only two visitors at a time.
22:47Coming up on Neighbours.
22:49It's a Chelsea situation.
22:50It's got to be challenging, right?
22:51I don't want to be the jealous girlfriend.
22:53What's going on?
22:54Maybe it's got something to do with the job hunt.
22:56What are you talking about?
22:57The resort that we were staying at sends a gift voucher since we had to cut the honeymoon short.
23:01Nothing but the best for my mates.
23:03Yeah, this thing's all.
