00:00Previously on Neighbors.
00:02How do you get so cashed out?
00:03I have a friend who finally paid me back for an old job.
00:06When are you free for round two?
00:07I've reached out to others that I hurt.
00:09Tess, and Dee.
00:11At least they gave me an inch.
00:14Won't be raining money on my family when I carve it.
00:18I remember you wore that when you took me to the ballet as a kid.
00:21Well, Noel, Sadie plans to look after my pieces.
00:30Neighbors. Everybody needs good neighbors.
00:37With a little understanding.
00:42You can find the perfect plan.
00:48Neighbors should be there for one another.
00:55That's when good neighbors become good friends.
01:05So get this right now.
01:07Apparently, I bought Nicolette a pack of cards from the family.
01:11Yeah.
01:12There have been many games that have snapped in the house recently.
01:15Ooh, who wins?
01:17Oila.
01:18She has white line fever. She's so competitive.
01:21Well, Nicolette was like that when she was a child.
01:24Yeah, board games, sports games, mate.
01:26Hey.
01:27Oh, it sounds like me.
01:29Perhaps we should have a family board game, sir.
01:32Oh.
01:33You look fabulous.
01:34Especially your mums.
01:36Oh.
01:37Someone's in a good mood.
01:38Yeah, just happy to see you all together.
01:40Enjoy your evening.
01:43Well, maybe we should order.
01:47We've already ordered, Mum.
01:48Oh, no, I meant food.
01:50Yeah, Nan, it's coming.
01:52I'm telling.
01:53Oh.
01:54Chilly me.
01:58Cheers.
01:59Oh, I didn't realize the time.
02:01Could you tell Susan by when she gets back to my bathroom?
02:04Sure.
02:05I'm about to have an online dinner with my daughters tonight.
02:07Oh, nice.
02:08Yeah.
02:09But, Gerais, do you mind if I tend to a matter of the tram tomorrow?
02:12No, no, that's fine.
02:13Maybe Darcy can step in for you.
02:15Yeah.
02:16What's happening?
02:17Oh, there's just a fungus issue I need to investigate.
02:21Hmm.
02:22Yeah.
02:23Lydia.
02:24Hey, it's sunny Manhattan here.
02:26I was just thinking about you.
02:27Well, they're the kind of thoughts better discussed in person rather than over the phone.
02:43Oh, do you?
02:44No, no, no.
02:45I'm up for it.
02:46When?
02:47I look forward to it.
02:48Oh, it's all good.
02:49Uh, cheers.
02:50Yeah, nah.
02:51Good on you.
02:52Sweet.
02:53Sorry.
02:54Sorry.
02:55Sorry.
02:56I didn't mean to interrupt.
02:57No, nothing.
02:58You bought it.
02:59Oh, it's all good.
03:00Cheers.
03:01Yeah, nah.
03:02Good on you.
03:03Sweet.
03:04Later.
03:05Sorry.
03:06Sorry.
03:07I didn't mean to interrupt.
03:08No, nothing.
03:09You bought it.
03:10You're okay.
03:11You're a bit jumpy lately.
03:12Just.
03:13Nope.
03:14Getting to whip your butt at cards again.
03:15Really?
03:16Show us your tricks.
03:17Come on.
03:18Tricks, I reckon.
03:19Oh.
03:20Well.
03:21Oh.
03:22Oh.
03:23Well.
03:24Oh.
03:25Oh.
03:26Oh.
03:27Oh.
03:28Oh.
03:29Oh.
03:30Oh.
03:31Oh.
03:32Oh.
03:33Oh.
03:34Oh.
03:35Oh.
03:36Oh.
03:37Oh.
03:38Oh.
03:39Oh.
03:40Technically this is the best.
03:41But this one.
03:43It really captures your spirit.
03:45Oh.
03:46That's the one I was going to choose as well.
03:49You know, Byron made his mum a mug just like that.
03:53Oh.
03:55He made one for me too.
03:57Really?
03:58Um.
03:59He said that you didn't remember.
04:00That's what he was talking about the other day.
04:03I didn't realise.
04:04No biggie.
04:06Well, how about I make you your cup of tea in that mug and you can tell me what you've
04:11done with the rest of the clothes.
04:12I'd love that.
04:13So last night was nice, huh?
04:14All the non-fighting, non-arguments.
04:15Pretty, uh, non-eventful.
04:16Although I have been thinking about something that mum said.
04:17Oh, I'm sorry.
04:18That's not cool, huh?
04:19You don't even know what it was.
04:20I just assumed.
04:21I just assumed.
04:22It was mean.
04:23I'm sorry.
04:24Go on.
04:25Do you think she might be having memory issues?
04:26All the odd things that she's done since her arrival.
04:27I just thought that was mum being her usual.
04:28Drama queen, centre of attention.
04:29Yeah.
04:30Yeah.
04:31But after last night, I've just got this niggle.
04:35Maybe there's something else at play.
04:36I'm sorry.
04:37I just assumed.
04:38I'm sorry.
04:39Go on.
04:40Do you think she might be having memory issues?
04:43All the odd things that she's done since her arrival.
04:49I just thought that was mum being her usual.
04:52Drama queen, centre of attention.
04:54Yeah.
04:55But after last night, I've just got this niggle.
04:59Maybe there's something else at play.
05:05Hey.
05:06Hey.
05:07I just came from Nan's.
05:08And you'll never guess what.
05:09She found the mug.
05:10What?
05:11Hang on.
05:12She was so insistent that that thing didn't exist.
05:14Yeah.
05:15She just forgot.
05:16I think she's a little absent-minded.
05:21Morning.
05:22Got a note in my diary.
05:24You've got a new script due soon.
05:26I weaned myself off the painkillers a week or so ago.
05:29Really?
05:30Hmm.
05:31What, you're not taking anything?
05:32Just the natural supplements.
05:33Congratulations.
05:34Look, if you need me to-
05:35Excuse me.
05:36Got a meeting to get to.
05:52Wait, are you serious?
05:53We just trashed ourselves.
05:55A little more.
05:56Never hurts.
05:59What's all the working out at the moment anyway?
06:00You're making the rest of us look bad.
06:02You've got to keep the ladies happy.
06:06Yo!
06:07Hey, piano bar.
06:09You know how you used to be?
06:10A performer?
06:11Yeah, that's me.
06:12You have a lady friend and she wants to keep things fresh.
06:15She made a request for me to put on a show.
06:17Any moves you will any share?
06:19You must really like this girl, huh?
06:21Yeah, you could say she makes it worth my while.
06:23Alright.
06:24I can give you a few tips on the way to work.
06:26But listen, the golden rule is, you need to create a persona.
06:30And you have to stick to that.
06:32Performing is as much about personality as it is your body.
06:36Wait, hang on, hang on, I want to get these down.
06:38I'll have to get back to you about that, your body.
06:42Oh, hey.
06:43Hi.
06:44Whatcha doing here?
06:45I just thought I'd pop in and see if we could have a coffee.
06:47Oh, yeah.
06:48Well, I mean, that'd be nice.
06:49But, um, I've got a meeting.
06:51Can I take a rain check?
06:52Um, yeah, sure, sorry.
06:54Yeah, I'll see you later then.
06:56Okay.
06:57Oh, could I get a green tea?
07:08Yes, I'll see you again.
07:10You too.
07:11I'm so sorry I missed you at the school protest.
07:13Oh, yeah, yeah, that was a busy time.
07:16Yeah, is Susan coming?
07:18Um, yeah, I wanted to see you alone.
07:22Um, it's about Darcy.
07:26Oh, what's he up to?
07:28Well, what makes you think he's up to something?
07:30Oh, the fact that he's Darcy.
07:32Okay, yeah, right.
07:33Well, um, you said on the phone you hadn't seen him for a while.
07:37Not since the divorce.
07:39What, you were married?
07:41Yeah.
07:42The woman who left him at the altar 20 years ago wound up marrying him after all.
07:47Oh, well, um, do you mind telling me more?
07:52It's just, it, Darcy's moved back to Ramsey Street.
07:56I could use any intel I can get.
08:01It's, it's not a pretty story.
08:05I don't want to seem unduly suspicious.
08:09But we don't want to ignore anything either.
08:11I, I understand.
08:13So, how can we help?
08:15Well, I don't have the best relationship with Mum, and so I would appreciate an objective opinion.
08:21Have either of you noticed anything?
08:23Well, there have been a few moments of forgetfulness.
08:27We heard her call Darcy Peter once.
08:29But, look, it is common for when people do change environments that there's a period of adjustment.
08:35And there are a lot of explanations for memory loss.
08:37And Harold, he thought he had dementia. Turned out he was just mixing medication.
08:41But look, if it helps, I mean, it could be worth getting some tests done by Carl or Darcy.
08:47Mum and I are only just starting to be civil if I bring this up.
08:51It's just going to cause more drama.
08:53Oh, why don't, why don't I talk to her?
08:57Well, yeah, you know, that might seem less of an attack.
09:00Yeah, be careful though. It's a touchy subject.
09:02She mightn't be aware that there's a problem.
09:04And if she is, she might be afraid to have her fears confirmed.
09:07Oh, um, well, I mean, it, it can't hurt to try.
09:11And, look, I'll be careful, so.
09:13Okay.
09:14Okay.
09:24Hey, Nan.
09:25Oh!
09:26Hello.
09:27Mwah!
09:28Hey, um, I was wondering if you're free for a catch-up.
09:30You know, maybe play a game at Snapplet, you said last night?
09:32Oh, well, I was just about to catch the courtesy bus, actually, to go to the pharmacy.
09:37Can you come back later?
09:39Uh, yeah, sure, sure.
09:41Um, you're doing some paperwork?
09:43Oh, I've just been procrastinating about doing my banking for ages.
09:48So much fun.
09:50Hey, um, if you want, I can, I can help you with this.
09:53Oh, it might take a couple of hours.
09:55A few hours with you, Nan.
09:56I don't mind.
09:57Well, that would be wonderful.
10:00Okay.
10:01Okay.
10:02About 15 years ago, Darcy and I ran into each other at a mutual friend's party.
10:08I wanted to leave straight away, but like a fool, I, um, got to talking.
10:14He was lovely.
10:15He apologised for the way he treated me, said that, um, he'd done a lot of work on himself.
10:23Yeah.
10:24And he wanted to make amends.
10:25Yeah.
10:26I found myself falling for him again.
10:31Only this time I didn't have an Alice Jamison or a Lynne Scully to step in.
10:36So you got married?
10:38It was the worst two years of my life.
10:43And that's coming from someone who was Mrs. Brendan Bell.
10:47What happened?
10:49He cheated on me.
10:51Used me like an ATM.
10:53Gaslit me into thinking I was wrong all the time.
10:56It started to feel like I was back in Ramsey Street in, what, 2001?
11:01Yeah.
11:02A half expected D-bliss to turn up.
11:05Oh, I'm so sorry that you had to go through that.
11:10And I, um, I'm just surprised I didn't hear about it from anyone.
11:14I got so much grief getting back with Darcy.
11:17I wanted to keep the wedding quiet and the divorce even quieter.
11:20Mm.
11:21I haven't seen him since.
11:26I'm so sorry.
11:27Oh, no, no, no, no. There's no need to apologise.
11:33And there's more.
11:35Oh.
11:40Hello.
11:41Dr Darcy.
11:42You're off the hook.
11:43Uh, I didn't know I was on one.
11:45Mm, helping me with all that boring life admin stuff.
11:48Oh.
11:49Byron's offered to do my thanking this afternoon.
11:52Oh, I don't mind.
11:54I know.
11:55But I've got to let him.
11:56You see, he was so touched when he realised I still had that silly mug he made for me.
12:02He wanted to do something nice.
12:04Oh, well, that is nice.
12:05You know, I think moving to Ernstborough was a good idea.
12:10Ooh.
12:11Somebody said there was a fire?
12:20I heard there was a fire.
12:21I heard there was a fire.
12:27Where's the fire?
12:28It's hot in here, isn't it?
12:29Always hot.
12:30Where's the fire?
12:31Show me the fire.
12:32Where's the fire?
12:33In your gorgeous eyes.
12:34Yeah.
12:35No dude, don't let me stop you.
12:36This is the first time I've seen a grown man try and seduce himself.
12:39I'm going on a date.
12:40Oh yeah?
12:41Who is she?
12:42I mean, clearly someone who has a appreciation of the fine efforts of our first respondents.
12:46No one you know.
12:47Yeah.
12:48Well, champagne, chocolate.
12:49I mean, that's a bit much for a daytime hookup though.
12:51Gonna make a good first impression.
12:53Okay.
12:54I'll see you later.
12:55Bye.
12:56Bye.
12:57Bye.
12:58Bye.
12:59Bye.
13:00Bye.
13:01Bye.
13:02Bye.
13:03Bye.
13:04Bye.
13:05Bye.
13:06Bye.
13:07Bye.
13:08Bye.
13:09Bye.
13:10Bye.
13:11Bye.
13:12Bye.
13:13Bye.
13:14Bye.
13:15Bye.
13:16Bye.
13:17Bye.
13:18Bye.
13:19Bye.
13:20The marriage breakups always messy.
13:21Uh-uh.
13:23I said and did things I regret.
13:26But in the end he owed me $15,000 and I doubt I'll ever see it again.
13:30He was juggling a few debts then.
13:31Who else does he owe money to?
13:34He was always cagey about it.
13:35But he was in business with another doctor, and things went south.
13:40Money was involved.
13:40What is this doctor's name?
13:42Anthony Hellsworth, do you know him?
13:45No.
13:46No, no, no, it's not ringing your bell.
13:50You think I'm a fool, don't you?
13:52No, no. I think you've been taken in by a very skilled manipulator.
13:56Again?
13:57He's done it to Susan again.
13:59And me, and the Irene residents think he's perfect.
14:02Well, what are you going to do?
14:04I just don't know.
14:08Well, look, just remember this.
14:10No matter what Darcy says or does, his true nature will always come out.
14:14Eventually.
14:16Come in.
14:21Hello.
14:23Oh, Mr. Darcy.
14:26Miss Amanda. Delighted to see you.
14:29Hey, can I have a quick word before Byron arrives?
14:33I know you're an independent and capable woman,
14:37but I don't want to see you in a situation where you're vulnerable.
14:41I'm sorry, I don't follow.
14:43Okay, well, one thing we're hyper aware of at Irene Rising are residents running the risk of elder abuse.
14:50Now, if Byron or any other member of your family sticks their nose into somewhere where they're not wanted, you know, you can come to me.
14:58What prompted this?
15:01Well, the fact that your grandson has ignored you for years and now he's offering to help you with the banking.
15:09I mean, it might be innocent, but sadly, when people with assets get on in years, their relatives can see it as an opportunity for themselves.
15:22Well, Byron's not lying.
15:24Look, they might couch it in terms of taking the burden off, but they're actually resting control of your assets.
15:37There's probably nothing to worry about, but just in case, I'm always here for you. Okay?
15:52This still somehow feels weird.
15:54Yeah, well, at least it's going to good use.
15:58Hey, nice shades.
16:00Expensive too. A couple hundred easy.
16:03Yeah, how'd you afford those? You solid kidney?
16:06Tips.
16:07I've seen you serve drinks. You ain't that good.
16:09You haven't seen all I can do.
16:11Oh, yeah. How was the firefighting?
16:13Sorry, what?
16:14He had an appointment with a lady friend.
16:17Oh.
16:18Tell him he never tells.
16:19Which excludes you, so spell.
16:22Who wants to go to the pub?
16:24I'm trying to save money.
16:25Yeah, mash out.
16:27Then you're on.
16:29Is that massage oil?
16:34Yeah, I treated myself to a massage.
16:36Yeah, finding pies, no doubt.
16:38Mmm.
16:39Smells like the cheap stuff.
16:41Do you want drinks or not?
16:42Okay, fine.
16:43Let's do it.
16:44We'll go.
16:45Get a move on.
17:04Peter used to handle all of this.
17:06I never got the hang of it.
17:09None of you know how many bank accounts you have here?
17:11Oh, a million, it seems like.
17:15Um, have you ever thought about maybe combining them all?
17:18I mean, I could do some research for you and present you with some options.
17:21Oh, wonderful.
17:22Yeah.
17:23How about I make us some more tea?
17:25Yeah.
17:26Yeah.
17:27Um, just...
17:29Nan, Sadie said that you, uh, you forgot you had this.
17:32Just slipped my mind.
17:33Ah.
17:34That's alright.
17:35It's...
17:36Look, I've just been speaking to Susan Kennedy and she said that Harold Bishop had some memory
17:39issues from mixing his medications.
17:40Oh, there's nothing wrong with my medications.
17:41Okay, it's just, um...
17:42It's just that you forgot that we ordered dinner last night.
17:57What are you trying to suggest?
17:59That I've gone gaga?
18:00Uh, no, Nan.
18:01Uh, no, Nan.
18:02Uh, is that why you offered to help me with my banking?
18:05Oh, no, I just wanted to take some burden off your shoulders.
18:09Burden off my shoulders?
18:11Yeah.
18:12I've been warned about people like you.
18:14People...
18:15Nan, I'm...
18:16I'm just trying to help you.
18:17I was offering you the chance to make up for the fact that you've been absent in my life.
18:22If this is how you're going to behave, I'd rather you didn't.
18:26Nan.
18:28Everything okay?
18:30Byron was just leaving.
18:31Oh, no, no, I...
18:32Ah!
18:33Darcy, please show him out.
18:35Maybe you should do what she says.
18:42Okay.
18:52Hey.
18:53Um, I'm sorry, Mum, I've had a complete mess of that.
19:02What?
19:03Was it really that bad?
19:04Yeah.
19:06Maybe you should try talking to her.
19:10Hey.
19:12I can come back later.
19:13No, that's fine.
19:14I've already told everyone what happened with Amanda.
19:16Oh, yeah.
19:19How are you feeling?
19:20Um, you know what? Don't worry about me. I'm not worried about Nana.
19:24How was she after I left?
19:26Yeah, she'll be alright.
19:29No, but how was she?
19:31Well, um, your grandmother is a super independent woman,
19:35and I think she gets a little triggered when someone challenges that.
19:39Okay, um, is that August?
19:42Darcy, what's that?
19:44Oh, um, well, look, Amanda had a moment.
19:49And, um, she got a little agitated.
19:51I don't think she meant to do this.
20:03I'm gonna pay for drinks.
20:06You alright?
20:08Alright.
20:10This round's on me.
20:12Whoa, who even has cash these days?
20:15Uh, people who get lots of tips. Why don't you join us?
20:19It's my show.
20:21Now, I should be encouraging you to save that,
20:23but considering you're you, that would be a wasted effort,
20:26and I will take a chilled red.
20:27Copy that.
20:30Hey, uh, how was your date, huh?
20:32Oh, your moves were so helpful.
20:35Thanks.
20:37Is that right?
20:38Hold on a minute.
20:39How did you make so much in tips in Aaronsbrough?
20:43A lot of Germans and Americans came through.
20:47I think I'm gonna have to learn a few moves from you.
20:50I was lucky.
20:51Right, now we're home, I can tell you something.
20:57Go on.
20:58The meeting I had at the tram, it was with Tess Bell.
21:02Why didn't you say so?
21:04I would have loved to say hello.
21:06Oh.
21:08Was this about Darcy?
21:09Yep.
21:11I thought you were gonna drop it.
21:12Did you know that Tess and Darcy were married?
21:16No.
21:17Two years.
21:18Ended in divorce.
21:20It's funny that he didn't mention that.
21:22Yes, exactly.
21:24Well, maybe he was embarrassed.
21:27Maybe his behaviour was appalling.
21:28He cheated on her and used it for money.
21:31Is that what Tess said?
21:32Yeah.
21:34Yeah, apparently he was in business with some doctor.
21:37Anthony someone.
21:38Anyway, that went sour.
21:42Doesn't sound good.
21:43No, it doesn't.
21:44Why hasn't he told us any of this?
21:47I don't know.
21:48We should at least hear his side of the story.
21:50Well, Darcy is a compulsive liar.
21:52He's clearly got an agenda.
21:54Susan, the man is a conniving snake.
21:56He came all beaten.
21:57Tell me what you really think, Carl.
22:06Coming up on Neighbours.
22:07They're nice kicks.
22:08Yeah, thanks.
22:09Well, they look exy.
22:11How do you afford him?
22:13You want my money?
22:14Well, I'm here to tell you there's hardly any at all.
22:17The specialist called.
22:18He wants to see Thomas.
22:19Yeah, all right.
22:20I'll be there.
22:21You come too, of course.
22:22Yeah, it's fine.
