Home and Away 8288 27th June 2024
Transcript
00:00Have you sent John your proposal for the youth programme yet?
00:10Oh I still need to beef it up a bit before submitting, any chance you could take another
00:13look at it?
00:14Okay, I've got some time.
00:17No, no, no.
00:20I'm not going to take that proposal to the committee so you need to drop it.
00:24Okay then we need a different strategy, I can show you dinner and we can put our heads
00:27together.
00:29I can't do this anymore, I'm done.
00:32We can get an independent health and safety inspector to come here and give us the answers
00:39we need.
00:40You now want to throw thousands of dollars more at the issue.
00:44But if the insurance company have to pay up, everybody wins, including Bronte.
00:50She can go to Canada, get the treatment she needs before it's too late.
00:54Okay, what if they find us at fault?
00:56I'm sorry love, but you're not supporting me and you sure as hell don't understand
01:00that I'm trying to help.
01:01I do understand, but this isn't just about Bronte.
01:04Yes, for me it is.
01:14Thanks so much everyone, see you next week.
01:19Ah, hello John.
01:20How's the day gone?
01:21Oh, I had better.
01:22Sorry to hear that.
01:23Yeah, but at least I can look forward to some peace and quiet tonight though.
01:26What's that supposed to mean?
01:27It means I wish you lot had quit being a band sooner.
01:30Okay, last time John, we didn't quit, we're just taking a break.
01:35What was that about?
01:36Just John being John.
01:39How do you feel like you haven't pulled?
01:41I can't.
01:42Unlike some people, I'm working.
01:44I thought you were about to clock off.
01:45Yeah, well Marley bailed last minute, said he had something to do with his brother, so
01:49I'm stuck here.
01:50Sucks to be you.
01:51You want to help me carry these boards up then?
01:54Okay, only because I have nothing else to do.
01:56Nice, awesome.
02:00Harper, would you slow down?
02:01Why don't you want to be involved anymore?
02:03You really can't guess.
02:04Did I do something?
02:05Yes, you slept with me and then you acted like it meant nothing.
02:08Hang on, we talked about this, I thought we were okay.
02:11No, no, no, you talked about this.
02:13You just said let's forget about everything.
02:15Because we've had this conversation before.
02:17You made it clear you had zero feelings for me.
02:19I know, I know.
02:20And I know that I seem like a lunatic now.
02:23Well, say something!
02:25I'm just not in the right headspace for a relationship.
02:27Yep, I got that.
02:28Loud and clear.
02:30Anyway, now you know why I can't work with you anymore.
02:32So, it's just too hard.
02:38I don't know what your problem is, John.
02:40I would have thought this thing of tarnas is right up your alley.
02:44It sounds dangerous.
02:45You should see the list of people he wants to let into the club.
02:47John, come on.
02:49There is no way that Harper would be involved in something that would put people at risk.
02:55Ah, maybe I was a bit harsh.
02:58I'm sorry, this is going to have to wait.
03:01I got your message.
03:03What did you want?
03:05I heard what you said about not wanting to pay for an independent inspector.
03:11And I just want you to know that I understand.
03:14Okay, great.
03:16But I still think that proving our innocence quickly is the best step forward.
03:21Which is why I've decided to pay for the bloke myself.
03:25No, you can't.
03:26Well, I am.
03:28Fine, I will transfer you my half.
03:31Leah!
03:32You got what you want, just be happy.
03:35What's going on with you two?
03:38It's about time you came to your senses.
03:41Thank you.
03:42We always thought leaving the force was a terrible idea, didn't we?
03:46Yeah, totally.
03:47Really? Well, one of you could have said something about that.
03:49Okay, you know what?
03:50On second thoughts, I actually remember you saying something about that.
03:53Well, at least we figured it out.
03:56You were born to be a cop.
03:59We'll see about that.
04:00Going back is not exactly a straightforward process.
04:02Oh well, Eden's smart.
04:03She can help you out.
04:05See ya.
04:06Bye.
04:07So, do you have to go back to the tribunal that suspended you in the first place?
04:11No, I have been out for so long that I actually have to reapply.
04:14Okay, well that's not too bad.
04:15You're trained.
04:16You know how to do the job.
04:17There's still a lot I've got to do.
04:18I've got to fill in this form.
04:19I've got to attach all of the relevant documentation.
04:21I have to submit a drug and alcohol screening.
04:24That sounds doable.
04:26Oh look, they have an online refresher training course too.
04:29I'm not doing a refresher course.
04:31Come on, it's just a hoot.
04:33You've got to jump through to go back to making a difference.
04:37Is there anything I can do to help?
04:39No.
04:41Why don't you go see how Remy's going?
04:42It'll take your mind off your brother.
04:44I'm not thinking about Levi.
04:46Oh.
04:48Okay, fine.
04:50I'm not completely heartless after all.
04:53I'll bring some pizzas round when I'm done, okay?
04:55This is why the cops are going to take you back.
04:58Because you are the best.
05:04Bye.
05:05Bye.
05:08I'm so sorry.
05:09I'm not sure when you can pick up your board.
05:12We're a little bit short-staffed at the moment.
05:15Yep.
05:17Okay, well let me find out and I'll get back to you.
05:19Thank you so much.
05:21Bye.
05:23Okay, I need a tea.
05:25I'd love one too.
05:30And we are out of milk.
05:32Oh yeah, where did you grab some?
05:34You couldn't even get off your backside to buy milk.
05:36Okay, what is up your nose?
05:37I don't know.
05:39Remy, I've just been working myself to the bone while you've been sitting around all day doing nothing.
05:42I haven't been doing nothing.
05:44What have you been doing? Working on your tan?
05:46No, I've been thinking.
05:48I've been exercising.
05:50I even meditated.
05:52Maybe not the last one.
05:53Hey!
05:54Quick, run. Get out of here. Go.
05:56Oh my gosh.
05:57Do you think this is a joke?
05:59We are broke and neither of you are pulling your weight.
06:01Okay, well I've been looking for bar work but there's just not a lot going on right now, babe.
06:05Maybe you should ask your boyfriend for some money.
06:07You can ask your parents.
06:09Okay, stop. Enough. Enough messing around.
06:11My savings are almost gone and you two need jobs. End of story.
06:24Thanks.
06:26Hey, actually I was glad I ran into you.
06:28I heard you were back from the city. How was it?
06:30It was tough but positive in the end.
06:33Anyway, how have you been?
06:35He's going back to the police force.
06:37That's great, man.
06:39Have you handed in your application?
06:41I have handed in my application. I've signed up for a course that I need to do.
06:43And then we're just going to see how it goes.
06:45Well, they wanted you before.
06:47Yeah, flick. I told them to get stuffed.
06:49What made you change your mind?
06:51I don't know. I just didn't know what I was going to do.
06:53I mean, I was speaking to Rose about Levi's case.
06:56I miss her.
06:58Hang on. What about the delivery?
07:00No one told her.
07:02There's no jobs.
07:04Really?
07:05Really.
07:07Because I saw this morning at least 10 jobs in Yabby Creek that you could apply for.
07:12Okay.
07:14Cleaner, receptionist, parking cop.
07:16What's wrong with that?
07:18Oh, come on.
07:20What? You can't expect us to take any old job.
07:22Why not, babe? I had two. Times are tough.
07:24Kirby, serving at the beach all day must be a real challenge.
07:26Oh, at least I'm doing something.
07:28Look, when we agreed to put the band on hold, we knew things weren't going to be easy.
07:31All you have done is take it easy.
07:33Yeah, and all you have done is nag.
07:35Why are you painting me out to be this bad guy?
07:39All I'm trying to do is keep a roof over our heads.
07:41Calm your farm, Kirby.
07:43Everything's going to be fine.
07:48Okay.
07:50Who didn't pay the electricity bill?
08:00Man, I've been staying at a motel. I had no idea.
08:03So Levi's definitely okay now?
08:05Yeah, he's okay, but he was touch and go for a while.
08:07So who are these guys? Just randoms.
08:09I don't have any details.
08:11Right. I need to call Mac. I've been so caught up with my program.
08:13What program?
08:15Oh, it's this thing I'm doing. I want to start a program at the gym for kids who've had it rough.
08:18Oh, wow.
08:20When's it kick off?
08:22Once I get the surf club's approval. If I get it.
08:24John knocked back my proposal.
08:26Why?
08:28Who knows? He liked the idea at first.
08:30John supervises community service. He's 100% behind rehabilitation programs.
08:33Apart from this one.
08:35I don't know what he's like.
08:37He's probably grumpy about something else and taking it out on you.
08:39Yeah, yeah. I'm sure he'll come around in the end.
08:41Well, he'd better, because without the surf club approval, he's dead in the water.
08:45Yeah, well, I might know someone who can help you.
08:47Hey, Harper.
08:48Hey.
08:49How are you feeling?
08:50Yeah, good.
08:51Yeah? Okay. Well, you actually might be the perfect person to help Tana with a proposal.
08:54Have you got a minute?
08:56She already has help, debtors.
08:58Yeah.
09:00Sorry, I just remembered I'm meant to be somewhere.
09:05What was that about?
09:07Long story.
09:09Yeah? She said she had a love of her mind before? Is this what she was talking about?
09:13Don't worry.
09:15I'm dealing with it.
09:22Where are the rest of the candles?
09:24I don't think we have any more. It's not like we've ever lost power before.
09:27Well, if you'd just paid the power bill like you said you would, maybe we wouldn't be in this mess.
09:32It's not my responsibility. I'm in charge of Wi-Fi here.
09:35Well, don't look at me. I'm in charge of gas and that's not you for too much.
09:39I'm in charge of gas.
09:40No, you're not.
09:41Yes, I am.
09:42No.
09:43Yes, you are.
09:45I'm in charge of electricity. I'm sorry.
09:47Don't. You have one job.
09:49Well, girls, it's not like we can do anything now, so let's just relax.
09:51Relax? That's your solution.
09:53Yes. Okay, this is a chance for us to put all that tension behind us.
09:57You know, we can have a jam, kick back.
09:59Come on, it'll be house bonding time. You know, it'll be fun.
10:02I'm going to Cash's. You coming?
10:04Right behind me.
10:06Girls, you don't know what you're missing out on. We could be making sweet, sweet music.
10:17It's been a stressful time, alright.
10:20I can imagine. You and Leah are normally as thick as thieves.
10:23Well, health inspector's coming tomorrow, so hopefully we'll get good news, fingers crossed.
10:31You're doing the right thing. The sooner you get answers, the better.
10:34Anyway, enough about me. How's things going with Tane?
10:38I still don't feel I can put his proposal to the committee.
10:42Why not? You've always been in favour of second chances.
10:47John, you're not getting gun shy, are you?
10:51Because Alf's away, and if you say yes when he comes back, he might rip into you?
10:56I think it's a bad idea. I think it's asking for trouble.
10:59Uh-oh, here she comes. She's going to want to spy all about all this.
11:02Distract her with my sneaker, OK?
11:08Don't worry about the silly galoot. He doesn't want to talk about the youth program.
11:13Oh, listen, congratulations on that too. Well done, you being involved. It's a great idea.
11:19Actually, I dropped out.
11:21What? Why?
11:22A few weeks ago, Tane and I...
11:26What?
11:28You know...
11:30OK.
11:33Yeah, well, stupid me thought that it might be something, but he doesn't feel the same way.
11:40His friendship is so important to me, and now it's a train wreck.
11:45It can happen, love.
11:47It shouldn't happen.
11:48It can happen, love.
11:50It shouldn't have. I should never have let it get that complicated.
11:58Hot food, Wi-Fi, lights. Joni Mitchell was right, you really don't know what you've got until it's gone.
12:04Yeah, that goes for the pizza too.
12:06Yeah, you better come and eat, otherwise you're going to miss out.
12:09Hey, thank you so much for putting me up for dinner.
12:13You shouldn't be punished for Remy's mistakes.
12:15Where is Remy, anyway?
12:16He's at home, being stubborn.
12:18He's in denial about how broke we are.
12:20And hopefully not for much longer.
12:22This workout has to be a wake-up call.
12:24Yeah.
12:26Does your offer still stand to work at Salt?
12:31Yes.
12:33What about Mac?
12:36It's not her fault you fell in love with the wrong guy.
12:41Can you start next week?
12:43Yes.
12:44Yes?
12:46Then yes, you're hired.
12:48Don't say a word.
12:50Well, that's one problem solved.
12:53Now we've just got to get Remy in line.
12:55Yeah.
13:44You don't need to take off.
13:46I wasn't going to.
13:48I was actually looking for you.
13:51Really?
13:53At the risk of repeating myself, we need to talk.
13:59270, 280, 285.
14:04Would you like me to count that?
14:06I can do it in my head.
14:08Mate, I'm getting there.
14:10It's typical music.
14:12I can't even afford a cup of coffee.
14:14Sure.
14:16You could always shout.
14:18You know what, that's fine.
14:20Nice of you too.
14:22The usual, thanks.
14:24I'll be over here.
14:27So, has your inspector come yet?
14:31Yeah, he's going to email us the results when they're in.
14:35It's worth all the money we're spending.
14:37Love, I'm so sorry that you felt pressured.
14:40I'm so sorry that you felt pressured to go along with all of this.
14:45It's done, it's done.
14:47Is that it?
14:49Not quite.
14:51Love, I was wrong.
14:53I got my priorities all wrong.
14:56This business and my friendship with you is very important.
15:04Can we not do this anymore?
15:07I would hate for everything to get in the way.
15:10Of our friendship.
15:13I know that you were just looking out for Bronte.
15:16I got all caught up with the money and looking after this place.
15:20But you're right, we can get past this.
15:22We can work something out.
15:24Thank you.
15:26And there's such a weight off my shoulders.
15:28Mine too.
15:32Sorry we've got our wires crossed.
15:34No, I should have been more honest about how I felt.
15:38I get what you mean.
15:40I'm just trying to sort myself out after everything that's happened.
15:44Until then, until that's done, I really shouldn't be with anyone.
15:48I know.
15:50I just can't switch off how I feel.
15:52I hear you.
15:54You're still really important to me.
15:56I wouldn't have got through the last few months without you.
15:59Thanks.
16:01So is there any way you could push through this?
16:06I can't.
16:07I don't even think we can be friends anymore.
16:10No Harper, of course.
16:12Just while I'm getting over this.
16:16Tony, it's a really great idea.
16:19You need to fight for it.
16:27John, I need a word.
16:30Yes?
16:32It's about my proposal.
16:34I've said all I have to say about that.
16:35Well, I haven't.
16:37It's important and I'm not taking no for an answer.
16:39Well, I don't see how that's going to work
16:41because I'm the gatekeeper of the club and I've benched the idea.
16:43Well, if that's the case, I'll just go to the committee directly.
16:45You can't do that.
16:47Watch me.
16:49I'm going to make this happen with or without your support.
16:53Marley, where are you?
16:55Please just call me.
17:00Oh my gosh, that is exactly what I needed.
17:02Thank you.
17:03You will be too next week.
17:05Yep, and then the money is going to be rolling in.
17:07Well, trickling in.
17:09Well, every little bit helps.
17:11And hopefully the lights will be back on so soon.
17:13Why don't you just let me pay your power bill
17:15and you can fix it up next time we get paid?
17:17Yes, thank you.
17:19No, no, we will sort that out.
17:21You are still technically unemployed.
17:23Well, I'm not unemployed for very much longer
17:25and I have a savings account.
17:27No, babe, forget it.
17:29Okay, well, I have to go teach Marley's lesson
17:31so I will let you two sort this out.
17:33Okay, come on, let me help you out one last time, hey?
17:35You shouldn't have to live in the dark.
17:37Babe, this is a matter of principle.
17:39Romy said he would pay the bill, so he's going to do it.
17:41I miss Justin, but he and Ava are getting on really well.
17:45Well, darling, let's hope it lasts.
17:47Exam stress brings out the worst in all of us.
17:50Oh, that would be me.
17:56Oh, dear.
17:58What?
18:00It's the health inspector's report.
18:01I can't read it.
18:07Given the contamination was caused by a faulty water pipe...
18:11Which we already knew.
18:13Our inspection focused on who was responsible
18:15for plumbing maintenance.
18:17Well, that would be the owners of the building.
18:19Yeah, it is, but...
18:21The proprietors of the pier diner are required by law
18:25to stay up to date on annual safety reports
18:28and ensure that all maintenance is carried out.
18:32Well, I don't remember there being a problem
18:34with the last report.
18:36Apparently, we missed a recommendation
18:38to have the plumbing assessed.
18:40So, what does that mean?
18:42It means what happened was our fault.
18:46Oh, my God.
18:55Good morning.
18:56Did you enjoy your night all alone in the dark?
18:59Yeah, I did. Thank you.
19:01Come on, Rem, you need to get real.
19:04What, like you are?
19:06For your information, I just took the job at Salt.
19:09With Mac? No way.
19:11Yes way, because I didn't have a choice.
19:13And now, neither do you.
19:15Okay, I want the lights back on,
19:17so it's time for you to suck it up and bring in some money.
19:19Yes, that is why I'm about to go air basking.
19:22Okay, that's a start.
19:23I am going to go grab some clothes
19:27and then I'm going to take a long, hot shower at Cash's place.
19:31Enjoy my last few days of freedom.
19:33That's a good idea. I might do the same.
19:35No.
19:37What do you mean no? There is no hot water
19:39and I'm about to go out and try to make some money.
19:41Sorry, you're not invited.
19:49Thanks for letting me know. Bye.
19:51Bye.
19:53What did the solicitor say?
19:57If the complainants go through with their claims,
20:00it is our responsibility to pay up.
20:05That's a hundred grand.
20:07Yeah.
20:09I don't have that kind of money, do you?
20:11Not without selling this joint.
20:13We are not doing that.
20:15I just think we make a last ditch effort
20:18with Joseph and Bronte and see what we can work out.
20:21Leah, I am so sorry
20:23that I encouraged Bronte to make a claim.
20:27But without that payout,
20:29her prospects are dire.
20:32I understand and I feel just as bad as you,
20:35but if these lawsuits are dropped,
20:38we won't have a business.
20:40I will work on Joseph
20:42and you need to deal with Bronte.
20:44And there's no other way?
20:46No. You need to talk to Bronte.
20:48Otherwise the diner is finished.
20:49Otherwise the diner is finished.
20:59It's been two days.
21:01Not a word from the Allens or Iluka.
21:03Iluka is alive.
21:05We're going to find him.
21:07We're going to take him home. Do you hear me?
