Home And Away - Episode 8482
Transcript
00:00I'm really sad that you have to go.
00:11But things can get better for you.
00:12You can have a better life.
00:14And don't you let anyone tell you that you can't, okay?
00:17I was wrong.
00:18You're not as bad as the other characters.
00:19You're worse.
00:20I know it's a horrible situation, but I think it's all for the best.
00:23I don't think Rue would agree with you on that.
00:25She feels such a failure.
00:27I don't know if she's ever going to bounce back from this.
00:29Do you reckon we can pull it off in time?
00:31I'm going to have to talk to her first.
00:33Run away with me.
00:34What?
00:35Now?
00:36Yeah, we hit the road.
00:37We stayed somewhere for a couple of nights.
00:38What do you reckon?
00:39I'm going to ask you to marry me.
00:41Yeah.
00:42Yeah, right?
00:44Your boyfriend convinced me that some time off would be good for both of you.
00:47Don't ever think it again.
00:48Why didn't you just tell me where we were going?
00:51Because I wanted it to be a surprise.
00:52So good to see you.
00:53You too.
00:55She's got no idea what's about to happen, does she?
00:58She doesn't have a clue.
01:12Here we go.
01:17Hope you're keeping an eye on the time.
01:19Rue said she'd text when she got back.
01:22I imagine she'll be very fragile after leaving Eliza.
01:25Oh, don't worry.
01:26I'll look after her.
01:27Yeah.
01:28You going to talk to her about taking a break from fostering?
01:30Mm, I'll have to.
01:31And sooner rather than later.
01:34Never know.
01:35She might have changed her mind.
01:36Oh, maybe.
01:38Oh, Struth, can you make that tea to take away?
01:41She's back?
01:42Yeah, just pulled up at the house.
01:44I could come with you for support if you like.
01:46Thanks, Marilyn, but I think Rue and I need to talk this through ourselves.
01:50Bye.
01:59Bye.
01:59Bye.
02:18Bye.
02:18Bye.
02:18Bye.
02:19Bye.
02:19Well, it's been a while since we'd seen Gary, and I thought it could be nice to chuck him
02:31a visit.
02:32Okay.
02:33Certainly nice for me.
02:34And if that's all it is, I'm not sure why he needed to be so mysterious.
02:39Mum?
02:40What are you doing here?
02:43I got a phone call out of the blue.
02:46Oh, so nice to put a face to the voice.
02:49Thanks for coming, Deb.
02:50My pleasure.
02:51Always up for a party.
02:52Oh, a party.
02:53This is what I think it is, isn't it?
02:55Just hold that thought.
02:56I think we've got some more arrivals.
02:58No way!
03:00Oh my God!
03:01Ah!
03:02Hello.
03:03I know, of course.
03:07How are you feeling about all this?
03:13I'm feeling fantastic.
03:15I'm feeling too bad.
03:21Hey.
03:23Welcome home, Liv.
03:26Hello.
03:28Oh.
03:29Yeah, Marilyn was tossing up as to whether or not to throw that out.
03:34I'm glad she didn't.
03:36Anyway, I should unpack.
03:38I was, um, hoping we might be able to have a bit of a chat.
03:41Okay.
03:42About what?
03:43Well, how did it all end up in the city?
03:46Well, Eliza's been admitted for psychiatric evaluation.
03:49She's being assessed.
03:51She's got a long road ahead of her.
03:53Hmm.
03:54Sounds pretty rough.
03:55Hmm.
03:56You know, when we were leaving, you should have seen the look on her face.
03:59I mean, she was so angry.
04:00I don't blame her.
04:01You did the right thing by that girl every step of the way.
04:04It's nice of you to say that, Dad, but I think I let her down.
04:07You didn't.
04:09Anyway, anything else you wanted to talk about?
04:14No, um, just that it's really good to have you home.
04:21Thanks, Dad.
04:27So good to see you.
04:28Yeah, you too.
04:29So tell me, what's going on with you?
04:31Nothing.
04:33At the jail.
04:34What?
04:35No, my life is boring.
04:36There's honestly nothing to tell.
04:42You know, I haven't had a chance to chat to you all properly yet.
04:44Oh, well.
04:45No time like the present.
04:47Also, if she doesn't know about Abby's drug addiction.
04:49Good to know.
04:51Hey, Abby.
04:52Hmm?
04:53My turn.
04:54Oh, no.
04:55Mum.
04:56Darling.
04:57Mac was just saying that she hasn't had the chance to get to know you yet.
04:59Hi, Deb.
05:00Hi, Mac.
05:01Always time to talk to the woman who stole my son's heart.
05:05Get over here.
05:06All right.
05:07Are we going to keep pretending that this is just a random visit to Gary?
05:10Maybe.
05:11Who says I'm pretending?
05:13Right.
05:14Come on.
05:15Hey, hey, hey.
05:16Hold that thought.
05:19I'm sorry we're late.
05:20That was totally my fault.
05:22Hey.
05:23Hey.
05:24Hey.
05:25Hey.
05:26Hey.
05:27Hey.
05:28Hey.
05:29Everyone gather round.
05:30The show is about to begin.
05:31There's a seed that can be grown into a giant.
05:38There's an arm that you can hold when you are crying.
05:44And you don't have to do it on your own.
05:50How many people live the rest of their lives?
05:58Eden.
05:59I know that you and I have been to hell and back.
06:03And that that is largely has been my fault.
06:06So sorry, Deb.
06:10I don't ever want to be away from you ever again.
06:14I love you.
06:16I want to spend the rest of my life with you.
06:25Eden Fowler.
06:30Will you marry me?
06:32Yes.
06:33Yes, I will.
06:43I want to.
07:10Oh, you all right, Deila?
07:12Yeah, just thought I should start packing up Eliza's room.
07:18So, um, did the doctors give you any idea of what's going on there?
07:22They don't give a clinical diagnosis to children.
07:25Their brains are still developing.
07:27Well, they must have some idea.
07:28Well, they were using terms like conduct disorder,
07:33callous and unemotional tendencies.
07:34They also said she had psychopathic traits.
07:37It's truth.
07:38Well, at least that explains why she did what she did when she was here.
07:43Yeah, maybe.
07:44I mean, we knew that she could feel anger and sadness.
07:48But, you know, emotions like guilt, remorse, empathy,
07:51she's probably never going to have those.
07:53So she's not going to get any better?
07:54It's not likely.
07:56I mean, she's just a kid.
07:59At least she's getting the help she needs.
08:02Well, what does this mean for the rest of her life?
08:04How is she ever going to fit in?
08:08This looks so delicious, Mac.
08:13Oh, thank you.
08:15So how do you find living with Abigail?
08:17I still cannot believe that you did all of this.
08:20Yeah, it feels right.
08:22It's perfect.
08:25You know what?
08:26I think that we could use some more champagne.
08:29Yeah.
08:29Yeah?
08:29Yeah.
08:31I think Kirby's really excited for the album, so I can't wait to.
08:34Rem, please tell me that you brought your guitar.
08:36Yeah.
08:36Do you want it?
08:37Okay.
08:38Hold that door.
08:40Let's go.
08:41So, um, when were you going to tell me that you're working with Eden, honey?
08:45Well, it's just not that big of a deal, is it?
08:48Abby, what's going on with you?
08:50What do you mean?
08:51Well, one minute you're at uni living in a share house,
08:54and the next thing I know you're working with Levi
08:56and you're working at a broad shop.
08:57What happened?
08:58I just wanted a change.
08:59Oh, okay.
09:00Is that why you left the shop too, or did you get fired?
09:02No, I just didn't want to work with my boyfriend anymore.
09:05You've got a boyfriend?
09:06Um, um...
09:07Mum, have you seen a maiden's ring?
09:09Yeah, Deb, it's so beautiful.
09:11It's lovely.
09:12Cash clearly knows her well, but Abigail and I are just talking.
09:15No, no, we're done.
09:16Oh, wait.
09:16Nope.
09:17Some things I remember, some things I forgot
09:31Spent some days connecting with dots
09:35I was thinking, why do they always sleep to you?
09:42It comes and it goes like a light in the dark.
09:46I remember when I fell asleep in your arms,
09:50and I know that I felt something new.
09:56I think I love all of you.
10:01Why do I smile at the things that you do?
10:07Why does my heart get heavy when I think about you?
10:11And I wonder if you feel it too.
10:17I remember the time you put me to bed
10:21Because I drank too much
10:23And I think that I said that I
10:27I love all of you
10:31Did you say that you love?
10:35Did you say that you love me too?
10:40How'd you go with your room?
10:57Not great.
11:00Surely she doesn't want to foster straight away.
11:02No, it's not that.
11:04You didn't get to talk to her about it, did you?
11:06No, I couldn't.
11:07She was so upset.
11:09I've never seen her like that before.
11:11Well, I want to break in a minute.
11:13I'll give her a ring and we can meet up for a chat.
11:15I don't know that that's a good idea, Marilyn.
11:18I got the impression that she
11:19wanted to spend some time on her own.
11:21I don't want her to go through this alone.
11:24Alright, but just go easy, eh?
11:26I don't want her to go through this alone.
11:40I don't know.
11:43I don't know.
11:47I don't know.
12:22Are you okay?
12:52Someplace to wake up in another state
12:55Right next to you
12:57Leaving everything behind
13:00To chase my heart
13:01I just wanna get away
13:03With you, baby
13:05We can let go
13:07All right
13:09Follow me close
13:12Tonight
13:13Under these stars
13:16We'll find
13:17That we will be whole
13:20All right
13:22All right
13:23Oh, it's Saturday
13:24You happy?
13:26Yeah, I'm very
13:27It feels like things are exactly the way they're meant to be
13:30May I please do your gorgeous girl for a minute?
13:35Oh, you have to, Mum
13:36I just wanted to say thank you so much
13:40For giving both my girls a job
13:41And making my son so extremely happy
13:44Oh, thank you so much
13:45You know, I was kind of surprised
13:47That you weren't a bit more upset
13:48About the way that we got together
13:50Oh, God, no
13:50My husband walking out
13:51Was the best thing that could have happened to me
13:54Really?
13:54Yeah
13:55I mean, it didn't feel like it at the time
13:57But
13:57Everything happens for a reason
14:00And between you and me
14:01I always thought Imogen was a bit on the, uh
14:03Dull side
14:06What's Abigail's boyfriend like?
14:11Marley
14:12Marley, what's he like?
14:12Mum, seriously?
14:14I'm just curious
14:15I mean, you're always such a close book
14:17All right, fine
14:18You want to know about Marley?
14:19He's cute
14:20He owns a board shop
14:21And he treats me great
14:22Happy?
14:24A little confused
14:25I mean, you've got this whole new life here
14:27But your old life seemed pretty great to me
14:29Well, it wasn't
14:30Okay
14:30Why? What happened, hon?
14:32Can you just drop it?
14:33Mum!
14:34I want to hear all about that new Reiki course
14:36I'm talking to your sister
14:37Yes, but it's my party
14:39And I want to spend some time with you
14:40So
14:40Yeah, come on
14:41One more question
14:47Or it's going to explode
14:47Oh
14:48You know your sister would be happy for you right now?
14:56Hmm
14:56Yeah, I reckon she would be
14:58Yeah, it's like when someone walks into a room
15:00Like you feel them
15:01Like, you know, that's their energy
15:02Wow
15:03You feel that?
15:04Yeah, no, I think I can understand it a little bit
15:06Yeah, yeah
15:06May I have the next dance?
15:08I thought you'd never ask
15:10Well, that all makes sense
15:28Yeah, Dad said the same thing
15:29I don't know
15:30I still feel like I let her down
15:32Well, you didn't let her down
15:34I just
15:34I refuse to believe that any child is beyond help
15:38It's just not that black and white
15:40Well, normally I would agree with you
15:43I mean, how do we know if she was born this way
15:45Or if her behaviour is a reaction to how she was raised?
15:49I mean, things could have been so different for her
15:51If she was raised in a loving and stable environment
15:54And she'd gotten help much earlier
15:56I guess it's out of your hands now
15:59Maybe not
16:00What do you mean?
16:03Well, you know, now that we know what the issues are
16:05Maybe when she's finished treatment
16:08She can come back here
16:10Even though the doctors have said she may never change
16:15I know I could help her, Maz, I know
16:16It's their professional opinion
16:18Well, I'll get a second opinion
16:19I'm not ready to give up on her
16:21Well, that didn't take long
16:30Didn't she want the company?
16:31No, no, we had a chat
16:32I just don't think it helped
16:34How is she?
16:36I don't know how to tell you this
16:37Just spit it out, Marilyn
16:39Let's sit down
16:41Okay
16:44Bruce seems to have all these ideas
16:48About being a part of Eliza's future
16:50You're kidding
16:51No
16:51She seems to think that she's going to bring Eliza home
16:55When she has finished her treatment
16:56She said she wants to bring her back
16:58Yes
16:59Well, fortunately, I don't think Rue has any say
17:03In what happens to Eliza now
17:04Well, she hasn't accepted that
17:07That's the whole problem
17:08I think you need to have a chat with her, Mr Stewart
17:11Sooner rather than later
17:13More champers dip
17:19Thank you
17:21Hey
17:22Do you want to go upstairs and christen my old room?
17:25Do you believe you'll ask?
17:28Woo!
17:29Oh!
17:32That's illegal
17:33Should be
17:34Should be
17:35Abs
17:37Hey
17:38I'm sorry what happened with your mum before
17:42No
17:43No, it's not your fault
17:44She's just striking me off the wall
17:46Wanting to knock out the little single thing about her
17:47I know
17:48I know
17:48But
17:49She's doing it because she loves you
17:50Yeah, and I get that
17:51I just, you know, wish it came without judgment
17:53Abby
17:54My darling
17:57Hmm
17:58I've made a decision
17:59Yeah, what's that?
18:01Well, seeing that I've met all my other children's partners
18:02I think it's only fair
18:04That I come to Summer Bay to meet Molly
18:06I'm not scared of lightning
18:08Well, that's fantastic
18:10Right?
18:12Abby?
18:22Well, I really just wanted to see how she was doing
18:24You're right, yeah
18:27Well, I mean, could I talk to her?
18:28Because I've got all her things here
18:30Yeah, right
18:33Okay, you know what?
18:34I understand
18:35Had to ask
18:35Thank you very much, bye
18:37Well, they won't let me talk to her
18:41They think we need to have a clean break
18:42Sounds like a good idea to me
18:44I'm just trying to help her
18:46I understand that, Ru
18:47But it's time you face reality
18:49You're not Eliza's carer anymore
18:51Well, I know that
18:53But maybe in the future
18:54You have no future with that girl
18:57After what she did
18:58There's no way I'd have her back in this house
19:00I understand that, Dad
19:01But now that we know what the problem is
19:02We can help her
19:03That's not going to happen, Ru
19:04That's not fair
19:06I'll tell you what's not fair
19:07You putting everyone in danger
19:09Because you refused to see the problem
19:11Now that I know what the problem is
19:11And as far as I'm concerned
19:13You shouldn't be fostering at all
19:15I cannot believe you just said that to me
19:18You can argue all you like, Ru
19:19But it's not going to happen
19:20Says who?
19:21Says me
19:21And the last time I looked
19:23This was still my house
19:24Oh, all right
19:25We're back to that again, are we?
19:27Look
19:27I know you want to do this
19:29And I know you think you're doing the right thing
19:32But the answer's no
19:35Incredible
19:52Can I get you something?
19:57Champagne was lovely
19:58But, um
19:59Can I get a beer?
20:01Oh, you want what I want
20:02Girl out to my own heart
20:04So, are you still nervous about recording these songs?
20:10I'm good
20:10So, are we getting in the studio tomorrow?
20:12100%
20:12I'm so excited
20:14Good
20:14Great
20:15Oh, nice of you to join us
20:17I was just showing you eat in my bedroom
20:19Is that what the kids are calling it, eh?
20:22What are we talking about?
20:23Nothing
20:24Nothing
20:24So, Deb is coming back to the bay with us tomorrow
20:27Oh, that is awesome
20:28I can't wait
20:29Deb
20:30Thank you
20:31Well, I've heard so much about this place
20:33Molly, it's me
20:34Feel free to be busy tomorrow
20:36You know what?
20:37Maybe just steer clear of the bay altogether
20:38Mum is threatening to come home with me
20:40And she will be ready with an interrogation
20:42So, you know what?
20:43It is code red
20:43Just please
20:44Get out of town
20:45New love will lead to new threats
20:57Your boyfriend better keep his mouth shut
20:58You're putting yourself in danger because of a crime
21:01I'm not in danger
21:02I know these guys
21:03If you're on the wrong side of them
21:04They will come for you
21:05Anyone who gets close is in danger
21:08I've got a feeling that everything's going to be okay now anyway
21:11What makes you so confident?
21:13Because I know I love you
21:15Jesus
21:18What the hell?
21:22Stay in the car
21:22What's happening?
21:25Wait, guys, they're coming this way
21:27Dude, we've got to go
21:27We've got to get out of here
21:28Home and Away
21:30This week on 7
21:32Amen
