00:00Previously on Neighbours.
00:02What's it like living in a Rooney Rising?
00:04Well, it's usually a lot of fun.
00:06More gossip and scandal than an 80s soap opera.
00:09You're still trying to put me out to pasture.
00:11Until she settles in, I think it's going to be best if you stay away from her house.
00:15No one tried to break up Therese and Tony, didn't she?
00:18Never get on the wrong side of a teenager.
00:20I swear the curtain just moves.
00:22How is that possible? No one's home.
00:24I could have sworn that was for.
00:30Neighbours
00:34Everybody needs good neighbours
00:38With a little understanding
00:42You can find the perfect plan
00:48Neighbours
00:51Should be there for one another
00:56That's when good neighbours
00:58Be great
01:00Good friends
01:06Hello! Andrew!
01:08Boys, just wait there!
01:10Give me a sec.
01:18What's with the cricket bat?
01:20Ah, just...
01:22Thought I had something.
01:23Must have been you two.
01:24Welcome home.
01:27How was the flight?
01:28Long.
01:29Well, we basically just watched movies the whole way.
01:31Ah, nice.
01:32You must be what?
01:33Not really.
01:34The joys of being young.
01:35Well, hungry?
01:36Always.
01:37Alright, I'll whip you up a snack.
01:39You don't have to feed us.
01:40Yeah, you know, you don't even have to stay here.
01:42You can if you want though.
01:43Yeah, well that's what your mum said, but
01:45I mean, I've stocked this place with snacks for a month, so
01:48I probably should stick around and help you make a dent in it.
01:50Fine by me.
01:51Alrighty.
01:52Chickies and shockies.
01:54Mum, they have lots of other stuff.
01:57Well, we'd better read the evidence before they get home.
01:59Good idea.
02:00Good idea.
02:12Oh, hi now.
02:13Hi.
02:16Yeah, doing some last minute shopping for school?
02:18No.
02:19I just finished a shift at the foundation.
02:21Ah, yeah, of course.
02:22Fair enough.
02:23You go first.
02:24Um, JJ's coming home this afternoon and I want to see him.
02:25Yeah.
02:26So...
02:27Oh, no, no, you go.
02:28You go.
02:29Come on.
02:30Hey, say hello to him for me, yeah?
02:31Okay.
02:32Hey.
02:33Hey.
02:34Hey.
02:35Hey.
02:36Hey.
02:37Hey.
02:38Hey.
02:39Hey.
02:40Hey.
02:41Hey.
02:42Hey.
02:43Hey.
02:44Hey.
02:45Hey.
02:46Hey.
02:47Hey.
02:48Hey.
02:49Hey.
02:50Hey.
02:51Hey.
02:52Hey.
02:53Hey.
02:54So good to be home.
02:55How are the hands?
02:56Um, yeah, they're a bit better, but I don't think I'll be doing the dishes for a while.
02:59Yeah, how do you even eat with those?
03:01Ah, it gets pretty messy.
03:02Well, if you need any spoon feeding, I'm sure Vera's available.
03:06Mm-hmm.
03:07Hey, Vera.
03:09Oh, I think someone was looking at something they're not supposed to.
03:13Oh, get your mind out of the gutter.
03:16Uh, Vera, I just wanted to apologise about before we were, well, we were only trying
03:21to help.
03:22I know.
03:23I might have been a bit hasty about Irene rising.
03:28In fact, I was just looking the place up online.
03:32You're thinking about moving after all?
03:35I'm exploring it as an option.
03:37Really?
03:38Well, what changed your mind?
03:40Gina.
03:41I rang him to sort out coffee, and he's took me into a tour of the Sabo.
03:46Can I come?
03:47I've always wanted to have a sticky beak in there.
03:50Alright.
03:51But I'm not signing anything, so don't get too excited.
03:58I missed you so much.
04:00It's so boring here without you.
04:02Oh, I miss you so much, too.
04:04Hey, have a look at this one.
04:05Do you want to shoot some eggs?
04:07Yeah, I'll go get the ball.
04:09Very nice.
04:30Got it?
04:31Uh, no, I can find it in there.
04:33I'm pretty hungry, though.
04:34Me too.
04:35You boys just set your body weight in corn chips.
04:38Ah, Mum reckons we have hollow legs.
04:42Alright, I'll start dinner.
04:44You know, um, maybe we could get burgers from Grease Monkeys?
04:47Yeah, actually, if that's not too much hassle.
04:49Great, yeah.
04:50I'm down.
04:51Nell, dinner?
04:52All good, thanks.
04:53Therese is cooking a barbie.
04:55Alright, well, three burgers with a lot coming right up.
04:59I'll be right back.
05:00Oh, I'm wiped.
05:01I think I need to go pass out before dinner.
05:06Oh, okay.
05:07Yeah.
05:08Call me when you wake up?
05:09Yeah, absolutely.
05:10Bye.
05:11Bye.
05:12See you, Dex.
05:13Bye.
05:14Bye.
05:15Bye.
05:16Bye.
05:17Bye.
05:32Oh, Uncle Tay.
05:34What are you doing here?
05:35You look like you can do it with a break.
05:51You're not supposed to be here.
05:53You have to be there.
05:54Yeah, but surely they don't apply when Nell's not here, are you?
05:57She could be here any second.
05:59Nope.
06:00I just saw her.
06:01She's going over to JJ's and she's going to be gone for hours.
06:04Come on, surely you remember what it's like to be a teenager?
06:07No?
06:08You obviously do.
06:09Mmm.
06:11Listen, as much as I'd love to entertain you, I made a promise to Nell and I'm not going
06:16to break it.
06:17You're a good woman.
06:19Too good.
06:20Too good.
06:21Yeah.
06:22You know what I'm saying?
06:25Some of Nell's old sketches.
06:27Okay, come on.
06:28You're stalling now.
06:29Oh, seriously?
06:30No, no, no, no.
06:31No, no.
06:32Really?
06:33Yes, let's go.
06:34Come on.
06:35You don't want me to stay for a little bit?
06:36No.
06:37No, I don't, Paul.
06:38Come on.
06:39Throwing me out like this is just plain ridiculous.
06:40I'm working really hard to rebuild my relationship with Nell and that can't happen if she doesn't
06:45trust me.
06:46Oh really?
06:47And what about our relationship, eh?
06:48I mean, it's still early days for us.
06:49We're adults.
06:50We can be patient.
06:51Stop.
06:52Alright, you know what?
06:53We'll have coffee tomorrow.
06:54I've got to get back to work and do a tour.
06:55Yeah, well it's your loss.
06:56Oh, grow up, Paul.
07:08I wouldn't be here if I wasn't in serious trouble.
07:11Your girlfriend stands more like fun than trouble, I would say.
07:14It's not when they all find out about each other.
07:17Yeah, Nell's head would explode if she caught me three-timing her.
07:19Why could you get two more girls?
07:20Well, I could get one.
07:21Anyway, Apollo Bay is too small to hide in so I took off.
07:27Why won't you come here?
07:28Even though you and Ma don't really talk anymore?
07:31Yeah, and you haven't seen us in years.
07:34We all like each other, suppose.
07:36So that's why you came here?
07:38You thought you could lie low here while we were in New York?
07:40Why aren't you guys away?
07:42Your folks are.
07:43Mum hasn't been medically cleared to fly yet.
07:46Oh, is she okay?
07:47Yeah.
07:48Yeah, she should be.
07:49Ma just wanted us to get home in time.
07:51To go back to school.
07:52That sounds like my sister.
07:55Uh, hey, you guys won't tell her I'm here, will you?
07:59I don't think she'd like that.
08:01No, yeah, we won't.
08:02Great.
08:04So you're gonna let me stay?
08:08Is someone running off the door?
08:11Coming.
08:12Alright, so who's up for a TV dinner?
08:25Well, I have to say Vera, I had no idea you were thinking about moving in.
08:29Alright.
08:31I had to get me arm twisted.
08:33But I have to say, that was a pretty impressive tour.
08:37Oh, everyone was so nice.
08:39Yes, it really is a wonderful community.
08:41Alright.
08:42Frost tax.
08:43Cards on the table.
08:45Money is the only sticking point.
08:48Well, I'm sure we can work something out.
08:51I mean, I still owe you for what I put you through.
08:55Putting my wine bottles in your bins.
08:57Oh, I am the last person to judge when it comes to addiction, love.
09:01Believe me.
09:04Oh, leave it with me.
09:05I'm sure we can make it work for both of us.
09:07Okay.
09:11Oh, hello.
09:12You were at Irene Rising earlier.
09:13I'm Dr. Beshara.
09:14Oh.
09:15Gino told me some of the residents would be younger.
09:18I didn't know they would be this young.
09:21I'm the Irene GP.
09:22Filling in for Dr. Kennedy.
09:23Hmm.
09:24How are you with feet?
09:26Actually, podiatry is my specialty.
09:27Oh, Doc.
09:28You're speaking my language.
09:29Oh, thanks, love.
09:30Me and the puppies will see you in the clinic later.
09:33Hmm.
09:34I'll see you in the clinic later.
09:35Looks like Vera's pretty happy about moving to Irene Rising.
09:36Well done.
09:37Well, two things still need to happen.
09:38I'm the Irene GP.
09:39I'm the Irene GP.
09:40I'm the Irene GP.
09:41Filling in for Dr. Kennedy.
09:42Hmm.
09:43How are you with feet?
09:44Actually, podiatry is my specialty.
09:45Oh, Doc.
09:46You're speaking my language.
09:48Oh, thanks, love.
09:51Me and the puppies will see you in the clinic later.
09:54Looks like Vera's pretty happy about moving to Irene Rising.
10:02Well done.
10:03Well, two things still need to happen before she does.
10:06What's up?
10:07One, Therese has to make a deal with the deposit, which I think she will.
10:12And two, you need to keep your mouth shut so Vera doesn't change her mind again.
10:19Hey, you know, you don't have to stay home just for me.
10:22You probably want to go see Paul.
10:24Mmm.
10:25I'm not in his good books at the moment.
10:28Because of me, right?
10:30What do you mean?
10:33I was here when Paul came over and I heard you guys talking.
10:37Oh, no.
10:38Paul was being childish.
10:39And he's just getting used to the boundaries that I've set.
10:42He'll, um, he'll settle down soon.
10:44I promise.
10:49Hey.
10:50Oh my goodness.
10:51Are these my, are these my tracksuit pants?
10:54Yeah.
10:55Oh.
10:56I always go through the boxes at the foundation and came across and I just bought books in
11:00my memories.
11:01Yeah.
11:02Me too.
11:03Only of your dad.
11:08Sorry.
11:09They also remind me of our movie marathon nights.
11:12I used to love those.
11:13Yeah.
11:14Hey, why don't we have one tonight?
11:15Just us girls.
11:16That would be yours.
11:17Yeah.
11:18I, uh, thought you guys were hungry.
11:19Must be the jet lag again.
11:20Yeah.
11:21I'll, uh, I'll chuck this in the fridge once you get the midnight lunches.
11:33Thanks.
11:34So, who's up for some video games?
11:39Uh, well, actually we were thinking maybe it might be a good idea for us to stay here
11:44alone.
11:45Oh, really?
11:46Yeah.
11:47You know, it would be a good chance to show mum and ma that we're mature enough to look
11:50after ourselves.
11:51And you can come check on us any time.
11:53Just make sure to call for us.
11:55I don't know.
11:56Look, I, I said to your mums that I'd stay.
12:00Well, they said you didn't need to, so.
12:03I know.
12:04I guess I was looking forward to it.
12:07But if anything happens though, if anything feels just a little bit off, call me any time.
12:15Thanks.
12:16Yeah, we will.
12:17Yeah, nothing's gonna happen though.
12:19Yeah.
12:20Righto.
12:21I'm gonna head back to my cold and lonely house.
12:30I guess that means I'm staying.
12:40First item on the agenda, Holly.
12:43Who are we meeting about someone who doesn't even live here?
12:45Well, I'm worried about her.
12:47You know, being at home alone after everything that's happened.
12:50Yeah.
12:51Want her to move in?
12:52No, well, I haven't talked to her yet.
12:55I just wanted to run it by you guys.
12:56Make sure you're cool if she crashed whenever she wanted.
12:59Yeah, well, I'm definitely down.
13:01Yeah, me too.
13:02Vera?
13:03Well, there's definitely enough space for her.
13:07Now that I'm moving into Irene Rising.
13:10Get out of town!
13:11Congrats!
13:12Vera, that is awesome!
13:13So Therese came through.
13:15Sure did.
13:16And I even fessed up to Curtis about me gambling.
13:19Wow.
13:20That would have been tough.
13:22Not as tough as I thought.
13:24He's even gonna chip in till I find my feet.
13:28Oh, he's such a good boy.
13:31I bet you're all glad to see the back of me.
13:34Oh.
13:35I think I'm actually gonna miss you.
13:37Me too.
13:39Skinny-dibbing and all.
13:41I'll visit you when I see Uncle Harold.
13:44I can't wait to show you off.
13:46Oh.
13:47Tavira.
13:49Oh.
13:50Tavira.
13:51Tavira!
13:52Cheers!
13:53Cheers.
13:54Cheers.
14:01I forgot how loud you guys were.
14:03Oh, sorry.
14:04We had to pack for school.
14:05Sure you wanna go?
14:07You've got a great excuse to skip.
14:09What, jet lag?
14:12Me?
14:13Come on, we hardly see each other.
14:15I mean, could we?
14:17Uh, no.
14:18No, I got expelled from school last year.
14:20I'm not gonna risk that again.
14:22You are such a buzzkill.
14:23Well, we'll come home straight after.
14:25We can all hang out then.
14:26Yeah, it's okay.
14:27We have heaps of time to have fun before your mums get back.
14:32See ya.
14:33See ya.
14:34Listen, I'm sorry if I was a bit petulant yesterday.
14:43I, you know, I'm just trying to make up for lost time, that's all.
14:47And I am too.
14:48But I have to think of Nell.
14:50Yeah.
14:52She heard us talking.
14:55Ah.
14:56Not exactly my finest hour.
14:58I would have preferred she hadn't heard that.
15:01Oh.
15:02Does that work?
15:03No, it's Nell.
15:04Um, she left a calculator in my car.
15:06I'm just telling her to pop by and pick it up.
15:09So, what did you two get up to last night without me?
15:12We ended up having a movie marathon.
15:15After a slight detour down memory lane.
15:19Oh, she found my old tracksuit pants at the foundation and brought them home.
15:23You own a pair of tracksuit pants?
15:26Um, yeah, Toadie introduced me to them.
15:29Ah.
15:30I donated them when things fell apart.
15:33And Nell just happened to find them and bring them home.
15:37They just reminded her of happier times.
15:40But we ended up having a lovely night cuddled up on the couch.
15:43It's amazing what a pair of tracksuit pants will do, eh?
15:46Well, don't worry.
15:47I'm putting them straight back in the charity bin.
15:50Um, alright.
15:51Look, I should go.
15:53Vera's moving in and I need to deal with this contract.
15:55Mwah.
15:58Alrighty, Vera.
15:59I just put the last of your boxes in your room.
16:00Oh.
16:01Not how much, Lee B-Dog.
16:02Anytime, B-Dog.
16:03There we go.
16:04There's no turning back now.
16:05Congratulations, Vera.
16:06And welcome to Irene Rising.
16:07Excuse us, that it's not an official welcome without the official welcome party.
16:12Welcome, dear.
16:13Oh.
16:14I feel like a bit of a celeb with all this attention.
16:17You'll have to pop by once I settle in and check out me cats.
16:18I'm allergic.
16:19Not live.
16:20Figurines.
16:21I've got hundreds.
16:22They're my pride and joy.
16:23You must.
16:24Oh.
16:25Oh.
16:26Oh.
16:27Oh.
16:28Oh.
16:29Oh.
16:30Oh.
16:31Oh.
16:32Oh.
16:33Oh.
16:34Oh.
16:35Oh.
16:36Oh.
16:37Oh.
16:38Oh.
16:39Oh.
16:40Oh.
16:41Oh.
16:42Oh.
16:43Oh.
16:44Oh.
16:45Oh.
16:46Oh.
16:47Oh.
16:48You must be Moira, right?
16:49Yes.
16:50You're the one that double dips in the guac on Taco Tuesdays.
16:54Hmm?
16:55Oh.
16:56And you must be Hillary, the one that hasn't read any of her fancy books in her personal library.
17:04How do you know any of this?
17:07Oh, I have my sources, love.
17:10Now, if you don't mind, I have an apartment to move into.
17:16Out the way, ladies!
17:26I'm sorry I could get you out yesterday.
17:28It's okay. Therese and I had a mincey night.
17:30No.
17:31Did you get enough sleep?
17:32Uh, yeah. No, I think I'm back on my hands of my time now.
17:38Hey, I've been thinking...
17:42Maybe I should tell Therese that I'm okay with her and poor.
17:46Are you?
17:47I mean, I don't want to make things hard for Therese.
17:50And poor will make her happy more than Dad ever did.
17:54Plus, um, he did save my own foundation, so...
17:58I mean, yeah, as long as you can get your head around it.
18:03Yeah.
18:05I think I can.
18:06Cool.
18:08Alright, I should grab my calculator from Therese.
18:11Okay.
18:12See ya.
18:13See ya.
18:16Hey, check this out.
18:22Look, man, Tay seems cool, but maybe we should just tell Ma is here.
18:26No. You promised.
18:27What if we run it past Andrew?
18:29Probably kick Tay out and move back in.
18:32Or tell Ma. Or both.
18:33I thought you were the one who wanted Andrew to stay with us.
18:36I did until Uncle Tay got here.
18:38I just feel weird lying about this when Mum's in hospital.
18:41You know, like, I don't need any more stress in my life.
18:43We just never get to see Tay.
18:45And he's awesome.
18:47Please just let him stay.
18:48Okay, fine. As long as things don't get out of hand.
18:50What could possibly go wrong?
18:51Moira, you can't just veto a resident.
19:05Well, Vera Punt is not the type of person we want in our community.
19:11Well, just give her a chance.
19:13Look, I know she's colourful, but she's good for a laugh.
19:16At us?
19:17You heard her, Therese.
19:19She is nothing but a troublemaker.
19:21And a gossip.
19:22You left out a eavesdropper.
19:27Oh, don't worry, ladies.
19:29I'm used to hostile welcomes.
19:32I think you've been ruling the roost for far too long.
19:36Maybe it's time for a shake-up.
19:53Nell, a word.
19:56I've just got to grab something from Therese.
19:57That's right, take long.
19:59Come here.
20:00Come on.
20:04Look, you're a good kid.
20:06And you probably think that you are doing the right thing by Therese.
20:09But this little game that you're playing, it stops right now.
20:13I'm sorry, what are you talking about?
20:15Oh, come on.
20:16Do you think I'm stupid?
20:18The happy Rebecca family sketch that you planted?
20:20And finding the tracksuit pants to remind Therese of Toadie, hey?
20:26No.
20:27You called exactly the same thing when you tried to split up your dad and Therese.
20:32Well, I am not about to lose somebody else that I love.
20:36So how about you do us both a favour
20:38and just stop your childish attempts at trying to manipulate Therese
20:43before it blows up in your face?
20:45But I'm not doing...
20:47Do not get between Therese and I.
20:51It won't end well for you.
20:55Glad we had this little chat.
20:56I can.
21:08Coming up on Neighbours.
21:09Uncle Tay?
21:10I find out where he is.
21:11He'd better be keeping a low profile.
21:13I fancy seeing you here, Mum.
21:15Really, Byron?
21:16Therese, this is the oldest trick in the book
21:18and you are playing right into her hands by taking her side against me.
21:22Oh, now you're being paranoid.
21:23No, you are being manipulated.
21:24No, you're not being manipulated.
