00:00Closer each day
00:03Home and away
00:06I'm so sorry. I'm like really sorry.
00:10Oh my gosh, everyone is hating on Marley because of the article. Great.
00:15Oh, oh, ouch.
00:18Meanwhile, my followers just keep going up. That doesn't feel right, does it?
00:21But I wasn't going to see you again.
00:23I couldn't stay away.
00:25Hey.
00:26I appreciate you finally doing the white thing, but you were not to visit Theo again.
00:31I just don't care why she hasn't been back.
00:33When she came to visit you, I asked her never to contact you again.
00:37You what?
00:38Well, you had your best interest at all.
00:39Oh, what? So I should be grateful?
00:41I can't believe you said...
00:42I hate you.
00:43Just call her daughter again.
00:44No, just back off.
00:46Constable Harling will take you to the safe house.
00:48You're not going to be driving me?
00:49No, no. I still have a real boy entourage, so I'm going to be acting as a decoy.
00:53Got an update for me?
00:54Yeah, the witnesses made it to the safe house.
00:57Great.
00:58Yeah, go and get some sleep.
01:16Thanks, everyone.
01:18I'll see you next lesson.
01:20Is that your first class?
01:22Uh, second.
01:24Ready to go.
01:25Okay.
01:26Did you want me to try and balance the accounts today?
01:28No.
01:29You've already done enough.
01:30Running the shop and everything.
01:31Okay.
01:32Um, also, I have noticed that you haven't had any time to shape any boards, but I've had
01:35a few customers asking.
01:36Okay.
01:37Um, I'll work it out.
01:38I'll call them back.
01:42You look a little worse for wear.
01:44Uh, I'm busy.
01:45Fine.
01:46Just busy.
01:47Yeah.
01:48I thought you were going to sort out your staff shortage problems.
01:50Hey, tell you what, why don't you put a job out in the paper?
01:53What?
01:54You're so right.
01:55Why didn't I think of that?
01:56Probably because you've got your head in your phone.
01:58Of course I'm running an ad, JP.
02:00Have you had any applications?
02:02No, not yet.
02:03Well, isn't the deadline today?
02:05Yeah, but you know what surfers are like?
02:07Yeah.
02:08Unreliable.
02:09Late.
02:10Uh, I've probably got a ton of applications sitting in my inbox, so...
02:19Do you mind?
02:20Yeah, sure.
02:22If he hasn't said anything about the comments, maybe he hasn't seen them.
02:27Trust me, he has definitely seen them.
02:29I just need to own my mistakes and face up to him.
02:32Apologise.
02:33Alright, good luck.
02:35Bye.
02:36Bye.
02:37Hey!
02:38Didn't you just come off night shift?
02:41Yeah.
02:42Yeah, I did.
02:43Gotta go back in.
02:44Gotta check something.
02:45I left my foot out of the back.
02:48Okay, well, can I at least get a kiss?
02:51Don't see any river boys hanging around, so...
02:54No.
02:55That's what I need to check.
02:56Yeah.
02:57They were there.
02:58They've just taken off.
02:59Doesn't make any sense.
03:00Okay, well isn't that a good thing?
03:01They're not in your case anymore.
03:02No, I quite like knowing what they were up to.
03:04What about Lacey?
03:05She made it to a safe house.
03:08Well, can you relax today?
03:09Maybe we can spend some time together finally?
03:11Look, I've got to go check in on Theo and Sunny.
03:13Can't you just call them?
03:14No, I can't because I've also got to check in with Theo as police guard
03:16and see if they've got anything to report.
03:18Okay, well if you're going to the hospital I can call Sunny and check in.
03:20No.
03:21I am more than happy to be your deputy today if it means I get to see you.
03:24This isn't a joke.
03:26Okay.
03:27You're worried.
03:29I get it.
03:30Go and find out what's going on.
03:35Sorry for the delay on your board.
03:41I've been short-staffed.
03:44But I will have it ready for you ASAP.
03:47Not a problem.
03:48I'll let you know when it's coming up.
03:50Alright mate.
03:51Bye.
03:52Hello.
03:53How's it going?
03:54Good.
03:55Glad I am.
03:56Really?
03:57Yep.
03:58Did you need something?
03:59No.
04:00No.
04:01I just wanted to apologise.
04:02I'm sure you've seen everything that's happening online.
04:04It's fine.
04:05Really?
04:06Yes.
04:07A bunch of anonymous idiots shooting their mouths off online is not going to bother me.
04:11Good on you.
04:12Anyway, found a new meeting?
04:14Yeah, I actually got a few interviews this afternoon.
04:16That's great Marley.
04:18Yes.
04:19John, guess what?
04:20You're going to have a new board shop employee to annoy about paperwork soon.
04:23That's a quick turnaround.
04:25Yeah, almost too good to be true.
04:26Hmm.
04:27Anyway, I am really happy for you.
04:29Because I was scared that the article was going to drive people away from this place.
04:32Mm-mm.
04:33Nope.
04:34Business is booming.
04:35Well maybe there is no such thing as bad publicity after all.
04:37I don't know.
04:38You tell me.
04:39You're the way in the music business.
04:40Yes, that is right.
04:41Anyway, I'm going to go upstairs and do some songwriting.
04:43Alright, nice.
04:44Well I cannot wait to hear new stuff.
04:45Thank you very much.
04:46See ya.
04:47See ya.
04:48Bye.
04:49Sorry, why did you tell our weird applicants when we dinner?
04:52Because she needs to focus on music and not on my problems.
04:58Justin made a mess of everything by going to the police about her.
05:01Sounds frustrating, but he must have thought he was doing them right.
05:04How?
05:05How?
05:06Like I'm behind my back and ignoring my concerns.
05:08Well...
05:09And now Theo is mad at me and I look like the bad guy.
05:12Hang on a minute.
05:13Didn't Theo throw both of you out of the room?
05:15Yeah, so?
05:16Well then, Justin's not exactly in his good books either, is he?
05:20The difference is that I was looking out for Theo.
05:23What?
05:24And you think Justin wasn't?
05:25No, he was just doing everything that Theo wanted and ignoring the danger.
05:29Look, I...
05:30And you know what?
05:31None of this would have happened if it wasn't for that car and that was Justin's idea to begin with.
05:36Leah couldn't help herself and now Theo won't have a bar of either of us.
05:42That sounds tricky.
05:43Hmm, how's that even fair, you know?
05:45I get the boot when she's the guilty one.
05:48Yeah, well, she made a mistake, but her heart wasn't the right place.
05:52Yeah, well, she's not using her head.
05:54She actually believes that she has a right to interfere with Theo's relationship.
05:58Obviously she was worrying about him.
06:01Yeah, well, he's a grown man.
06:03She's gotta stop treating him like a kid.
06:06I hear you, I do.
06:08You agree?
06:10You make some good points.
06:12No use telling me all this, go home and talk to your wife.
06:15No, she's never gonna listen.
06:17Look, sooner or later Theo's gonna need you to and you're no use to him if you're arguing.
06:22Go home and sort it out.
06:24What?
06:26I think I'm Mexican family.
06:28What?
06:29Hi.
06:30Hey.
06:31Hey.
06:32What are you doing here?
06:33As your deputy...
06:34Not a thing.
06:35I wanted to let you know that Remy heard from Sonny this morning.
06:37He is safe and sound, body cards all in place.
06:40Okay, well, that is good news.
06:41Yeah.
06:42Theo?
06:43I haven't heard anything from the duty officer, so...
06:45So everyone's safe?
06:46Yeah, it does make me wonder what the River Boys are up to.
06:49It doesn't matter.
06:50I mean, if everyone's okay, that's the most important thing, right?
06:53Does that mean you can let it go?
06:55No, you can't let it go.
06:56It can't be this easy.
06:57Why not?
06:58Well, because if the River Boys aren't watching me, then it could be indicative of something
07:02bigger at play, but the question is what?
07:04Are you gonna find that out?
07:05I mean, it's not like they're gonna tell you.
07:07Just gonna investigate.
07:08That's what I do.
07:09Hey!
07:10Where's Molly?
07:11He's teaching a lesson?
07:12Where else would he be?
07:13So, things really are okay after the article.
07:14Mm-hmm.
07:15Mm-hmm.
07:16Yeah.
07:17Well...
07:18Yeah.
07:19Well, he said that, you know, we're still bringing in business, so...
07:34Hmm.
07:35Sounds like we're both keeping goals then.
07:37I was just upstairs working on a really cool chorus.
07:40That's great.
07:41Yeah.
07:42And I think knowing that the article didn't affect Molly's work just helped me relax, you
07:45know?
07:46Yeah.
07:47So, put that away.
07:49Tell me what the candidates are like.
07:52They're invisible.
07:54They're invisible?
07:55Yeah.
07:56What?
07:57He lied to you.
07:58Literally no one has applied for the job.
08:01Why would he lie to me?
08:03Kirby, if you saw a job advertised, what's the first thing you're gonna do?
08:07Um...
08:08I guess I would look up the business.
08:11Correct.
08:12And if you looked up this one, what's the first thing you'd see?
08:14How bad a boss he is.
08:15Why didn't he just tell me?
08:17Because he would rather you focus on your music than worry about him or the shop.
08:20But this is my fault.
08:22Oh, I owe him.
08:24Big time.
08:27Come on.
08:28Do me a favour.
08:29The customer is on my back.
08:32Hi.
08:33Hi.
08:34Would you like...
08:35How soon can you get it there?
08:37No.
08:38Seriously?
08:39That is your express service?
08:41Hey, mate.
08:42I saw you out yesterday.
08:43Fine.
08:44I'll cop the extra fee.
08:45Would you like to work at Mentoray Boards?
08:46Nah.
08:47No?
08:48Okay.
08:49Well, what if I told you that you get paid to surf and Molly's the best boss?
08:51I thought different.
08:52Right.
08:53Well, if you're talking about that lame...
08:54Just send me the invoice.
08:56I gotta go.
08:57Great.
09:01What are you doing?
09:02Helping.
09:03I didn't ask you to.
09:04Yes, I know, but I was just telling my friend...
09:08Toby.
09:09Toby here.
09:10What a great boss you are.
09:12Do you mind?
09:13You're a brave man coming in here.
09:14Well, we have to figure this out for Theo's thing.
09:15Well, you're about to get your chance.
09:16I'll take those, love.
09:18Hey, hey.
09:19What's happened when we could talk?
09:20Uh, I'm busy.
09:21Well, you know it.
09:22You're avoiding me.
09:23I can do both.
09:24You shouldn't be working.
09:25We should both be down at the hospital.
09:26Oh, like we both should be on the same page when it comes to Theo's safety.
09:28Well, it's good to see you two here.
09:29Must mean young Theo's on the men.
09:30I would love to tell you, but I wouldn't know, wouldn't I?
09:31Okay, Alf, it's not that bad.
09:32Oh, no, it is.
09:33Hey, wait, just a minute.
09:34We were banned from the hospital.
09:35No, no, no, no, no.
09:36Theo banned us from his room.
09:37How is that any better?
09:38I'm just telling it how it is.
09:39Oh, so now you want to talk about honesty.
09:40I'm sorry.
09:41I'm sorry.
09:42I'm sorry.
09:43I'm sorry.
09:44I'm sorry.
09:45I'm sorry.
09:46I'm sorry.
09:47I'm sorry.
09:48I'm sorry.
09:49I'm sorry.
09:50I'm sorry.
09:51I'm sorry.
09:52What's happened when we could talk?
09:53I'm sorry.
09:54What's happened when we could talk?
09:55Um, I'm busy.
09:56I'm just telling it how it is.
09:57Oh, so now you want to talk about honesty.
09:59I'm sorry I asked.
10:01You went behind his back.
10:03You went behind mine.
10:07I never asked or wanted you to step in.
10:10Yes, but this is my fault, and I need to fix this.
10:13What I want you to actually do is focus on your music.
10:16What is going on?
10:17Yeah, Marley is too stubborn to accept my help, yet again.
10:20So it was you that told her I had no applications?
10:23Well, it's true.
10:24How many times do I have to ask you both?
10:27Just stay out of it?
10:28Okay, can you please just chill out?
10:29Because arguing in public is not going to help your reputation.
10:32What are you doing?
10:33I have another lesson.
10:36Oh my goodness, he is so stubborn.
10:38Something he's got to give.
10:54What's up?
10:55What are you doing now?
10:57I'm just going over some old case files.
10:59Going over anything we have in relation to the Riverboys, actually.
11:02I can't find one thing that sounds like this MO.
11:06Okay.
11:07There's nothing on the database.
11:09Can we go?
11:10No.
11:11I've got to make some phone calls.
11:12I'm going to call Reapton Lakes and see if they've got any ideas.
11:15You can go.
11:17I thought I was your deputy.
11:19I need to work, baby.
11:21Are you sure?
11:22Yeah.
11:23I'll get the deputy later.
11:24Okay, how much later are we talking?
11:25I don't know.
11:26How long is a piece of string?
11:27Okay.
11:28Gosh, enough is enough.
11:29I'm sorry.
11:30Enough is enough.
11:31You're not even meant to be working today.
11:32Okay.
11:33I know.
11:34If they are up to something, you're going to be the first one that gets the call.
11:38Yeah.
11:40Just think about it.
11:44I will.
11:46You know where I'll be.
11:59Now he's not answering my phone call.
12:00Yeah, of course.
12:01You never should have told Lacey to stay away.
12:03I was trying to protect him.
12:04And you definitely shouldn't have let him worry about her for days to hide what you did.
12:08I was looking out for him like we both were meant to be doing.
12:10Why do you think I went to the cops?
12:12He's miserable thinking she's in danger.
12:14You shouldn't have interfered.
12:16Well, you know what?
12:17You're the one that shut down his love life.
12:19I...
12:20Because she's dangerous and it almost killed him.
12:22Look, you can't keep treating him like a kid, Leah, okay?
12:25That's why he kicked you out.
12:26Guys, you need to do this.
12:27You know what?
12:28At least I was worried about his danger to begin with.
12:30What does that mean?
12:31You helped him build that car.
12:33But it's not about the car.
12:34It's about the girl.
12:35He was so worried about stolen parts and he was out there racing.
12:39How naive can you be?
12:40I could never have known rebuilding that car.
12:42You helped him build that car and it almost killed him.
12:55Well, it looks like the hoodlums have moved on.
12:57For good, do you think?
12:58Well, I certainly hope so.
12:59Well, shouldn't you just know so?
13:01Look, I don't really want to talk about this here.
13:02I'm off the clock.
13:03Well, I imagine the criminals will have a well-earned holiday,
13:05seeing as you're off duty.
13:06I have done everything I can, sir.
13:07Yes, yes.
13:08I heard you arrested the bloke that hurt Theo.
13:10Is it true he's got a police guard in the hospital?
13:13Alrighty, not for that.
13:14Well, I guess it's up to me to keep an eye on things while he's off duty.
13:17Yeah, cash work shifts, but neighborhood watch never rests.
13:20Just as well, hey?
13:21Yeah, you might want to head home unless you want to hear my plans for him tonight.
13:25No.
13:26No.
13:27No, no.
13:28I'll give Kate that.
13:29Give me nothing.
13:31Nice one.
13:32Finally got you all for myself.
13:34I've been so busy lately.
13:35I'm sorry.
13:36Yeah, I know.
13:37What's the plan?
13:38You, me, Beth.
13:40Mmm.
13:41Can I buy you a drink first?
13:43Yeah, you better, actually.
13:45Yeah.
13:46Leah, slow down.
13:47We're going to figure this out.
13:48Leave me alone.
13:49I'm going to the hospital.
13:50What?
13:51I want to get him to change his mind.
13:53But they're never going to let you in.
13:54Well, he's not answering my calls.
13:56I need to see that he's okay with my own eyes.
13:57They're going to call you if anything happens.
13:59Justin, the River Boys are out there.
14:02What if they hurt him again?
14:03He's got a police guard.
14:07He's in pain and he's all alone.
14:09I know.
14:10I know.
14:11I know.
14:12Leo is recovering and he is safe.
14:14Nothing bad is going to happen.
14:15You don't know that I want to go and see him.
14:17I want to know that he is okay.
14:19Leah, he needs space from you.
14:22From us.
14:24Eventually, he's going to need us, okay?
14:29And when he does, we can't be at each other's throats like this.
14:31We should be spending this time to get on the same page.
14:35You're right.
14:36You're right.
14:37You're right.
14:38You're right.
14:39Hey, if space is what it needs, then I'll do that.
14:40I'll do that.
14:41We'll do it together.
14:42Yeah?
14:43Sorry about what I said before.
14:44That's all right.
14:45I've already forgotten that.
14:46Let's just think about there.
14:47You know?
14:48Yeah.
14:49Okay.
14:50Okay.
14:51I'll do it together.
14:52I'll do it together.
14:53Yeah?
14:54I'll do that when I said before.
14:55That's all right.
14:56I've already forgotten that.
14:57Let's just think about there.
14:58You know?
14:59Yeah.
15:00Okay.
15:01I'll do it together.
15:02Let's just think about there.
15:03You know?
15:04Yeah.
15:05Okay.
15:20Hey!
15:21Any idea why Marley texted me to meet him?
15:22No, but he texted me too.
15:25Good.
15:26You're both here.
15:27Hey, I'm really sorry.
15:28You listen, I talk.
15:29Right.
15:30Scaling back man's rag bullets.
15:31But I can help you.
15:32No, it's not up for discussion.
15:34I'm taking it back to the way it was.
15:36It was a one-man operation.
15:38Starting now.
15:40I want to be creative again.
15:42So I'll shape the boards
15:44and run a few lessons a week to keep that extra income.
15:47Okay, but the lessons are the things that bring in the money
15:49and good publicity for the rest of the business.
15:51Kaby, did you miss the part about it not being up for discussion?
15:54You're backing this.
15:57Yeah, it's his business.
15:58All right, well, I've got a ton of lessons to cancel,
16:03but I can do that back at home.
16:05Let's go.
16:05Sounds good.
16:07Okay.
16:09Bye.
16:13It hasn't been easy for me,
16:14staying away from you either.
16:15I don't know, I don't.
16:17I do understand.
16:18It's just a game.
16:19Yeah, I know that too.
16:21It's an important guess,
16:22but you can't let it consume you.
16:24There has to be some balance.
16:26You're right about that.
16:27Yeah.
16:29Are you sure you want to spend the rest of your life
16:31navigating this with me?
16:33Would you ask me that before I fell in love with you?
16:35Yeah.
16:35Well, we could have.
16:37Seriously, though.
16:40I know what I'm getting into.
16:42This isn't the first time you've been fooling about your job
16:44and it will not be the last.
16:47It's just, it is what it is.
16:52But I am in cash.
16:57I am all in.
16:59Do you know that by now?
17:00What?
17:03I love you so much.
17:08That's kind of great because I'm really funny too.
17:10Yeah.
17:11Yeah.
17:11Are you okay?
17:29Yeah.
17:30Yeah, I'm good.
17:31I haven't forgotten our plan.
17:32I haven't forgotten either.
17:36Hey, um, I might meet you at home.
17:39Make a coffee?
17:40Yep.
17:41Hey.
17:44You alright?
17:45I don't know.
17:47Did you talk to Marley?
17:48Yep.
17:49He's scaling back on the business.
17:52Okay, why is he doing that?
17:54Uh, the publicity that I organised for myself
17:56made it impossible for him to employ someone new.
17:58So, he had no choice
17:59and he also won't let me help him fix it.
18:01Okay, that is his decision.
18:03You don't need to take that on, Robert.
18:04Yeah, I'm not trying to take it on.
18:06It's just, this whole thing has made me realise
18:08that I have to make this music career work.
18:11Remy's invested money now.
18:12Marley's sacrificed his business,
18:14Justin's just managing me for free.
18:15Okay, okay.
18:17You will succeed.
18:19We all know how amazing and hardworking you are.
18:22Yeah, I just hope that that's enough this time.
18:25Because if I can't make this work,
18:27it'll all be for nothing.
18:30You reckon we can pull it off in time?
18:35Okay, I'm going to have to talk to her first.
18:38Bye.
18:44Come on, babe.
19:01This isn't like you.
19:02No, maybe this is the new me.
19:04Maybe this is the new scared, full of doubt, needy me.
19:08Are you listening to yourself right now?
19:09Yeah, I certainly am.
19:10Loud and clear.
19:11How many songs have you written?
19:14What does that have to do with anything?
19:16Just answer the question.
19:17Okay.
19:18All these years since we first met,
19:19how many songs have got your name on them?
19:24A lot.
19:25And how many songs have you sung?
19:27Lead or with Bobble, Theo?
19:30Also a lot.
19:32Right?
19:34I guess.
19:34No, not a guess, a fact.
19:37Okay?
19:39All you have to do is trust yourself.
19:42That's it.
19:46Okay.
19:47I can do that.
19:51You know what?
19:52I'm going to text Cash and just tell him that I'm going to help you.
19:54No, no, no, no.
19:55You don't have to do that.
19:57There's nothing you need to help me with.
19:58Okay?
19:59It's my career, my problem.
20:01Are you sure?
20:02Because he is not going to mind.
20:03I am certain.
20:04All I need to do is go over those songs again anyway.
20:07And I can't really do that with you just watching over me.
20:11Okay?
20:14I'm going to be just outside.
20:16Okay?
20:20I'm going to be just outside.
20:35Hey.
20:36Hey!
20:38Is Kirby okay?
20:40Yeah, she will be.
20:41Yeah.
20:41And you say you want to sign up for a lifetime and be my friend's drama?
20:49Run away with me.
20:51What?
20:52Now?
20:53Yeah.
20:54Yeah, we hit the road.
20:55We stayed somewhere for a couple of nights.
20:56What do you reckon?
21:00Come on.
21:00What do you reckon?
21:01I'm going to ask you to marry me.
21:11Oh!
21:11Yeah.
21:12Yeah, right?
21:14Why didn't you just tell me where we were going?
21:17Because I wanted it to be a surprise.
21:18She's got no idea what's about to happen, does she?
21:21She doesn't have a clue.
21:24Mum?
21:25What are you doing here?
21:27I got a phone call out of the blue.
21:29Oh!
21:30Oh my God!
21:31Oh my God!
21:33How are you feeling about all this?
21:36I'm feeling fantastic.
