00:00Closer each day, I'm in no way
00:06Mum? What are you doing here?
00:11You know, I haven't had a chance to chat to your mum properly yet.
00:13No time like the present. Also, she doesn't know about Abby's drug addiction.
00:17Good to know.
00:18One minute you're at uni, living in a share house,
00:20and the next thing I know, you've worked in with Levi
00:22and you're working at a board shop. What happened?
00:24Mum, hey, have you seen a maiden's ring?
00:26Yeah, Deb, it's so beautiful.
00:28It's lovely.
00:29But Abigail and I are just talking.
00:30No, no, we're done.
00:31No, wait. I've made a decision.
00:33Seeing that I've met all my other children's partners,
00:35I think it's only fair that I come to Summer Bay to meet Marley.
00:38Mum is threatening to come home with me
00:39and she will be ready with an interrogation.
00:41So, do you know what? It is clove red.
00:42Just please, get out of town.
00:44You did the right thing by that girl every step of the way.
00:47It's nice of you to say that, Deb, but I think I let her down.
00:49I guess it's out of your hands now.
00:51Maybe not.
00:52We're seem to think that she's going to bring Eliza home
00:54when she has finished her treatment.
00:56We can help her.
00:57That's not going to happen, Ruth.
00:58That's not fair.
00:59I'll tell you what's not fair.
01:00You putting everyone in danger
01:02because you refuse to see the problem.
01:04Now that I know what the problem...
01:05And as far as I'm concerned,
01:06you shouldn't be fostering at all.
01:08I cannot believe you just said that.
01:09I'm so tired.
01:18I've never been trying so hard.
01:22I can't have a job.
01:24But if you guys are looking around,
01:27it's still a Baby.
01:31I'm still alive.
01:35Wally, it's me.
01:42Feel free to be busy tomorrow.
01:44Well, you know what?
01:45Maybe just steer clear of the bay altogether.
01:46Mum is threatening to come home with me,
01:48and she will be waiting for an interrogation.
01:49So, you know what?
01:50It is code red.
01:51Just please get out of town.
01:54Good afternoon.
01:58Everything all right?
02:01Abby's mum is visiting tomorrow.
02:04The thing with mothers-in-law is typically
02:06their bark is worse than their bite.
02:08That's not it.
02:09Well, what is it?
02:10Abby's asked me to stay away.
02:12Why?
02:13Your guess is as good as mine.
02:19I don't know what's worse.
02:20The fact that Theo won't come home
02:22or that he won't tell me himself.
02:24Any idea when he's been discharged?
02:26No.
02:28Well, with a bit of luck,
02:30he'll come to his senses by then.
02:32Hopefully.
02:34There.
02:36Hey.
02:37Roo, hey.
02:38Welcome back, love.
02:39Do you reckon you might fancy some dinner?
02:42Yeah, I don't know, maybe.
02:43Yeah.
02:44What's wrong?
02:45What's happened?
02:46Is everything all right?
02:47Dad is driving me nuts,
02:48and he's not listening to a word I say.
02:51Oh, Irene, I feel terrible.
02:53Why? What's that?
02:54Because I encouraged him to have a chat with her,
02:56and now they've had a falling out.
02:58They'll be fine.
02:59They always are.
03:00Do you mind if I quickly just go and check if he's all right?
03:02Yeah, of course.
03:03Go for it.
03:05I'll see the word.
03:09Where is she going?
03:10She's going to see your dad.
03:12You two had a blue, eh?
03:14Yeah, he wants me to stop fostering.
03:16And I'm guessing you're not ready to do that yet.
03:19When you care this much about something,
03:21you don't just give up.
03:28Hi.
03:31Mrs. Stewart?
03:35Huh.
03:36You were back early?
03:37I just saw Roo.
03:39Yeah, we had words.
03:41I felt terrible.
03:42I mean, I feel like I pushed you into talking to her.
03:45Ah, don't be silly, Marilyn.
03:47I said what had to be said.
03:50I might have come on a bit strong.
03:53She needed to hear it.
03:55What did you say?
03:57I said that Eliza wasn't coming back,
04:00and that Roo needs to take a break from fostering.
04:04That can't have been easy.
04:06She'll come round eventually.
04:09I hope.
04:10Hey, Abby, call me back when you can.
04:15We need to talk.
04:16Okay?
04:18Mate.
04:20She's probably busy with her mum.
04:22I just don't get it.
04:23Doesn't she think that I can handle a few questions?
04:26Who knows?
04:27But some mothers can be too inquisitive.
04:30More than any woman in my family, I highly doubt that.
04:33Maybe it's nerves.
04:35Has she ever introduced a partner before?
04:37I don't know.
04:39But she would have met Cash and Mackenzie at the engagement party today,
04:41so why can't she meet me?
04:44Engagement party?
04:45Cash needed.
04:47Well, why didn't someone tell me?
04:48It only just happened.
04:50I wonder if they thought about a celebration.
04:52JP, focus, please.
04:54Oh, yeah, yeah. Sorry, you and Dingo.
04:56She's freaking out. I get it.
04:57But there's no need.
04:58No, mums love me.
04:59Yeah, I'm sure they do.
05:00But, hey, listen to me.
05:02Maybe you should steer clear on this one,
05:03at least until you know what's going on.
05:06No.
05:07Actually, I'm going to show up tomorrow
05:10and introduce myself to Abby's mum.
05:12Are you sure?
05:13Yeah.
05:15I'm going to rock up or charming and sweet
05:18and prove to Abby that she's got nothing to worry about.
05:21You're a good bloke, Marley.
05:23Thanks.
05:24I'm actually looking forward to it.
05:28Hey, wait.
05:29I want to hear about Cash and Edie.
05:35I don't know what time Rue got in last night
05:37and she was gone when I got up this morning.
05:39So you think she's avoiding us?
05:41That looks like it.
05:43How are these two going to sort anything out
05:44if they can't be in the same room together?
05:47Excuse me for a minute.
05:51Hi. Thank you for meeting up.
05:53I was happy to.
05:54Your voicemail said you had some concerns about Theo.
05:56I just want to get an update on his progress.
05:59Okay.
06:00He's doing well.
06:01He should be discharged in the next few days or so,
06:04as far as I know.
06:05Really?
06:06Yeah, didn't Theo tell you?
06:08I thought the hospital wasn't able to discharge him
06:11if he had nowhere to go.
06:12Well, I presume he's coming home with you.
06:14Oh, not necessarily.
06:16Is this something you should be discussing with Theo?
06:19He banned me from visiting him.
06:22Right.
06:24Leah, I can't discuss his care with you if that's the case.
06:27I understand, but hypothetically speaking...
06:30I'm sorry.
06:31I actually can't say any more.
06:34I do have to keep moving though.
06:36Hey, terrific news about Cash and Eden.
06:43Sure is.
06:45Undoubtedly, they'll be looking for a celebrant.
06:48Looks like I might have another wedding on my books.
06:51Well, that's assuming that they are skill.
06:55Surely they will.
06:56Maybe they don't want the fuss, love.
07:00If it were me, I'd be a lope.
07:03Fine by me. I'll go with them.
07:08Hey.
07:10Your dad hasn't been in this morning, love,
07:12if that's what you're worried about.
07:14Am I that obvious?
07:17I'd hope you two might have patched things up last night.
07:20No, we didn't.
07:22I just really don't want to see him at the moment.
07:24Well, darling, you've just had to say goodbye to Eliza.
07:28Things are bound to be tough for a while.
07:31Maybe just try and go easy on each other.
07:37I'll just have the usual to go. Thanks, Irene.
07:39Me a lot. Of course.
07:40And this is the surf club, which is where Abby, Eden and I all work. Just upstairs there.
07:53Yeah, boss is a bit of a tyrant.
07:54Ah, when I have to be.
07:55I can see why my kids all moved here. This is beautiful.
07:56Yeah, well, don't get any ideas. Okay.
07:57Oh, there's my boy.
07:58Hey, Mum.
07:59How was the patient?
08:00Ah, nothing urgent.
08:01Maybe we should go upstairs and eat or even take a hike to the lighthouse.
08:02It's a pretty long hike. How about after food?
08:03Yeah.
08:04Good morning.
08:05You must be Deborah.
08:06I am.
08:07And you have to go upstairs and eat or even take a hike to the lighthouse.
08:08It's a pretty long hike. How about after food?
08:09Yeah.
08:10Good morning.
08:11You must be Deborah.
08:12I am. And you are?
08:13I'm Marley, Abigail's boyfriend.
08:14Marley. Just the person I wanted to see today.
08:15It's a pleasure to meet you.
08:16You too. Why don't I show us all breakfast?
08:17Oh, I'm so beautiful.
08:18Yeah, I'm so beautiful.
08:19Yeah, well, don't get any ideas. Okay.
08:20Oh, there's my boy.
08:21How was the patient?
08:22Nothing urgent.
08:23Maybe we should go upstairs and eat or even take a hike to the lighthouse.
08:24It's a pretty long hike. How about after food?
08:25Yeah.
08:26Good morning.
08:27You must be Deborah.
08:28I am. And you are?
08:29I'm Marley, Abigail's boyfriend.
08:32Marley.
08:34Just the person I wanted to see today.
08:37It's a pleasure to meet you.
08:38You too.
08:39Why don't I show us all breakfast?
08:41Oh, no, Deb. It's on the house. Naturally.
08:43Perfect, Mac.
08:44Marley, come eat with us.
08:45Let's get to know each other.
08:46You know what, Mum?
08:47I think Marley is really busy.
08:48I'd love to.
08:51Wait.
08:52Great. Let's go.
08:56Marley.
08:58What do you think you're doing?
09:00It's cool.
09:01I've got this.
09:09How can the hospital discharge him if he's got nowhere to stay?
09:14What, Levi couldn't tell you anything?
09:16Hospital policy, apparently.
09:18That makes sense.
09:19He's my nephew.
09:20I can't just stand around while he's homeless.
09:22No, of course not.
09:26Yeah, thank you.
09:27So you got my text?
09:29Because I'm, you know, I'm ready to talk now if you are.
09:33Yeah, we, uh, we need to sort this out.
09:37Did you design all these boards?
09:39Yep.
09:40Shaped them too.
09:41Well, I have quite the talent, Marley.
09:43I can see why Abby's falling for you.
09:44Oh.
09:45Okay, why don't we go upstairs and grab a table?
09:47I can organize that.
09:48You guys take your time.
09:49I'll join you.
09:52Abby is hating me.
09:54I think I'll be fine.
09:55Mine seems to approve so far.
09:56Hmm.
09:57I'm sorry you couldn't make the engagement.
09:59Oh, no, I would have loved to have been there,
10:01but I have work to do.
10:03Well, if I didn't know any better,
10:04I'd say Abigail was trying to keep you on the right path.
10:07No.
10:08Abby wouldn't do something like that.
10:10Mm-mm.
10:11Hey, JP.
10:12Uh, this is John Balmer, surf club manager.
10:16John.
10:17Deb.
10:18Oh, you must be Abby's mother.
10:20It's an honor and a pleasure.
10:22Nice to meet you.
10:23So you must have had fun working with these lovebirds, huh?
10:26Mother.
10:27No, no, no.
10:28They were highly professional the whole time.
10:29Don't you worry about that.
10:30Which is hardly surprising,
10:31because Marley is a model tenant.
10:33Hard-working, reliable, kind-hearted.
10:36We're lucky to have you.
10:37Anyways, we should get upstairs,
10:39because Mac and Levi are waiting.
10:42Thanks, JP.
10:43After you, Deb.
10:44Alright, come on, Mum.
10:45Let's go.
10:46What?
10:47What, is it too much?
10:51I called ahead and said a very important guest was coming.
10:54I mean, a regular table would have been fine.
10:56I know, but I just...
10:57I really need to be Deb's favorite.
10:59When you give her a grandchild, you will be.
11:01Mm.
11:02Okay, fine.
11:03This is fancy.
11:05Welcome.
11:06Oh, thanks, Mac.
11:07I'm gonna grab us some menus.
11:08Molly?
11:09What do you think that you're doing?
11:11I asked you to keep your pistons.
11:13Yeah.
11:14What was that about?
11:15Well, this is too much for me right now.
11:16You're getting along great.
11:17Yeah, I can see that.
11:18Then what's the problem?
11:19Molly, she treats me like a child.
11:20And she wants to know every little detail about my life.
11:21Unavoidable.
11:22Especially when you're the baby of the family.
11:23No, it's more than that.
11:24It's because I'm a screw-up.
11:25You're not a screw-up.
11:26You're not a screw-up.
11:27Everything okay?
11:28Yeah.
11:29No, all good.
11:30I really hope you're hungry.
11:31Starving.
11:32Hey, Theo, I heard you're being discharged soon.
11:35Can you just let me know if you're hungry?
11:36You're just starving.
11:37I'm hungry.
11:38And I'm hungry.
11:39I'm hungry.
11:40We're hungry.
11:41I'm hungry.
11:42It's starving.
11:44I'm hungry.
11:45I'm hungry.
11:46I'm hungry.
11:47I'm hungry.
11:49I'm hungry.
11:50I'm hungry.
11:51Oh, I'm hungry.
11:52I'm hungry.
11:53I'm hungry.
11:54I'm hungry.
11:55know when. Call me, text. Just let me know, okay? All right, bye. Here we go. Thanks,
12:08Zoran. Look, you know when you said that I should give up fostering altogether, that
12:13really hurt me. Well, that wasn't my intention. Well, it made me feel like a failure, Dad.
12:18I don't think you're a failure, Ru, but I meant what I said. What happened with Eliza
12:23can never happen again. It would be different next time. I'm not convinced it would be.
12:31It's not about Eliza or any other kid you might want to help. It's about you. Look,
12:38it's wonderful that you care, but you cared so much with Eliza, you had no idea what was
12:44really going on with her. I understand what you're saying. I'm not sure you do.
12:48So how was working with Abby? Right? She's a hard worker. That's not a stickler for the
12:55rules so far. All right, well, give it a rest. Molly came to eat, not to get interrogated.
12:59I don't mind. I'm with Molly. There are times when this place is a million miles an hour.
13:04There are days I wouldn't cope without her. Well, it sounds like you landed on your feet,
13:07huh? Okay, Mum. You can dance it up.
13:09Perhaps. What's so bad about me wanting to know about
13:11your life? I'm your mum. I care. No, I know. It's just a little much.
13:16Deb, I get you worried, but Abby is doing really well now.
13:21Now?
13:22Yeah. She's put a recovery first, and you should be really proud of her.
13:29Recovery from what?
13:35Abigail?
13:35Maybe this is a conversation for later.
13:40No, I think this is a conversation for right now.
13:46Um, I feel, excuse us. I just need to have a private word with my children.
13:55Now, please.
14:05She didn't hate it, is she?
14:11She's about to.
14:25How could you keep this from me?
14:31What about Eden? Does she know about this?
14:32Mum, Abby has been clean for months, okay? And she's been going to counselling.
14:39It's really been helpful.
14:39You don't think I had a right to know?
14:43Abby had a right to privacy.
14:44She's not in a patient, Levi.
14:46Mum, stop. It is under control.
14:48Okay?
14:52Is this what was going on when you dropped her at my house?
14:56And why you freaked out when she took off?
14:59Yeah.
15:02And you still didn't think to tell me, Levi.
15:05Even when she had disappeared.
15:14Had I known that there was a problem, I could have helped.
15:17I don't want you to.
15:19Okay?
15:20Eden and Levi have helped me more than anyone.
15:22They got me clean.
15:24They kept me counselling.
15:25They gave me somewhere to live.
15:26Maybe I would have done all of that.
15:28But the point is, I didn't want you to.
15:31Okay?
15:31It is not on.
15:32Eden or Levi, it's on me.
15:35I'm the one that took the drugs, and I'm the one that kept it a secret.
15:37Hey.
15:58Hey.
15:59Hey.
16:01I thought about what you said.
16:03Really?
16:03And I'm not going to try and get Eliza back.
16:08Well, that's a good thing.
16:10Yeah.
16:11And I think you were right.
16:12You know, I do tend to get emotionally involved.
16:16But you see, I don't think that's a bad thing.
16:19Neither do I, most of the time.
16:22Bru, you...
16:22You just love to help people.
16:25And I admire that about you.
16:27Well, I'm really glad to hear you say that.
16:30You see, because I'm not going to give up on fostering.
16:33I think I have too much to offer.
16:35I understand that.
16:37But my position hasn't changed.
16:40Neither has mine.
16:44Listen, I think this whole thing's been so intense, hasn't it?
16:47So I'm going to go and stay at Mum's for a bit.
16:51If I'm going to help other people, Dad, I have to help myself first.
16:54That's a really good idea.
16:56So we agree to disagree?
16:58Don't we always?
17:01Look, it could have been worse.
17:04How?
17:05Um, something happened with Kathy's mum.
17:07It all seemed to be going so well.
17:10How was I supposed to know it was the secret?
17:13It was the secret?
17:13Not now, John.
17:14What, did you know?
17:18Yes, Leopold gave me the heads up.
17:20Great.
17:21So it was just me.
17:23I just assumed that her mum would have known.
17:26I know, of course you did.
17:26And that's completely understandable.
17:29Well, hey.
17:31Is Abby okay?
17:33She will be.
17:33She just has a lot to go through with mum right now.
17:37Should I go up there?
17:38I think the best thing to do, Marley,
17:40is just give them some space.
17:45I knew it would work.
17:46Okay.
17:47Talk to you later.
17:55I've really messed things up, haven't I?
18:00Give my love to Martha.
18:01I will.
18:03Are you sure you're not leaving
18:04because of all these trouble with your dad?
18:06No, no, no.
18:06We're fine.
18:07We're fine.
18:07He just has to accept my decision, that's all.
18:09It's a big ask.
18:10Yeah.
18:11Well, you know,
18:12I know he thinks he's doing the right thing,
18:13but it's important to me.
18:15So I'm not going to give up.
18:16Anyway, I'll call you when I get there.
18:18I'll see you.
18:18Bye.
18:18Bye.
18:19Bye.
18:19Do you mind taking care of things here?
18:24Um, sure.
18:25Is there a problem?
18:26Not knowing anything about Theo is driving me nuts.
18:30Ruth's right.
18:31When it's this important, you don't give up.
18:33Love, please think carefully before you do anything.
18:34All I've been doing is thinking.
18:36I'm going to the hospital and I'm talking to Theo
18:39and nobody's stopping me.
18:40Hey, how'd it go with your mom?
18:59It wasn't fun.
19:01Having to share all that stuff with her was really hot.
19:03She's really not happy that we kept it a secret.
19:05I am so sorry.
19:08Okay.
19:08Deb seemed upset because she didn't know
19:10what was going on in your life.
19:12Okay, so how I feel that that didn't matter to you?
19:14Abby, come on.
19:16Do you have any idea what you've done?
19:18I snuffed up.
19:20I assumed that she was worried because of your addiction.
19:22Okay, you know what?
19:23I don't care what you assumed, Amali.
19:25I asked you to keep your distance
19:26and you did the complete opposite.
19:28I know.
19:29I did it so that you could avoid a thousand questions,
19:31but now you've just gone and thrown me under the bus.
19:33Wait, how was I supposed to know
19:34that you hadn't told your mom this stuff?
19:37Where do we go from here?
19:44Well, I need to go and stay with my mom for a few days
19:46because I've really hurt her
19:48and I need to try and fix that.
19:50You know what?
19:51I need to actually prove to her that I am okay.
19:53What can I do?
19:55I think you've done enough.
19:56Leah, hey, what are you doing in here?
20:23Where's Theo?
20:25You know I can't tell you that.
20:26Well, he hasn't been discharged yet.
20:28His stuff's here, so is he going for a scan or...?
20:30We discussed this, remember?
20:31Oh, we'll just wait till he gets back.
20:34If Theo's asked not to see you,
20:35then you can't be in here.
20:37I'm his family.
20:38This isn't up for discussion.
20:40You have to leave.
20:41Make me.
20:45If you refuse to leave,
20:46I have to call hospital security.
20:48Go on then, do it.
20:50Are you really making me do this?
20:51I am not going anywhere.
20:52I am not going anywhere.
21:22That's what the whole security and everything was for,
21:24at least until the court case is over.
21:26Oh, what security?
21:28What court case?
21:29I will not allow you to be involved in this.
21:32You won't allow it.
21:33No, I mean it.
21:34Dana, you are not allowed to see Sonny anymore.
