00:00Neighbours
00:03Everybody needs good neighbours
00:07With a little understanding
00:11You can find the perfect plan
00:17Neighbours
00:20Should be there for one another
00:24That's when good neighbours become...
00:31Friends
00:36Oh, well I've had enough.
00:38They can stew in their own juice as far as I can.
00:40Steady, are you keen?
00:41Oh.
00:48Listen.
00:49I can't hear anything.
00:51Exactly.
00:52I've never known a house full of teenage girls to be so quiet.
00:58Darling!
01:00Where is everyone?
01:02They didn't come.
01:03They all went to the barbecue.
01:06Are you sure they knew what night it was, darling?
01:18Oh dear.
01:20No control over his temper.
01:24It's not the first time today he's flown off the handle like that, you know.
01:28If he wants to pull out, good riddance to him, I reckon.
01:30We can do without little tantrums like that.
01:32What if we'd have been customers?
01:34We're better off without them, Harold or mate.
01:36A sensible thing I've heard all evening.
01:38Oh!
01:39Oh!
01:40Listen.
01:41I can't hear anything.
01:42Exactly.
01:43I've never known a house full of teenage girls to be so quiet.
01:46Darling!
01:47Where is everyone?
01:48They didn't come.
01:49They all went to the barbecue.
01:50Uh, are you sure they knew what night it was, darling?
01:53Oh dear.
01:54Uh, are you sure they knew what night it was, darling?
01:55Oh dear.
01:57Oh dear.
01:58Oh dear.
01:59Do you think Jim meant it?
02:01Yes.
02:02Yes.
02:03Yes, I'm afraid he did.
02:04Oh dear.
02:05Oh dear.
02:06Uh, the uh...
02:07Oh, yes, yes.
02:08There we go.
02:09Oh dear.
02:10Do you think Jim meant it?
02:14Yes.
02:15Yes, I'm afraid he did.
02:17Oh dear.
02:19Oh dear.
02:20Oh dear.
02:23Oh dear.
02:24Do you think Jim meant it?
02:26Yes.
02:27Yes, I'm afraid he did.
02:30Mind you, considering his attitude...
02:33A bit much. A bit high-handed.
02:36And unreasonable. He may have done us a favour after all.
02:39More fish in the sea, you know.
02:41Especially a man with your contacts, Harold.
02:44And with your mechanical expertise.
02:47We shouldn't have any trouble at all in attracting a new partner.
02:52The laugh might be on, Jim, then.
02:54You know, you two are priceless.
02:56A man with your expertise, Rob, and a man with your contacts, Harold.
03:01It's a pity you haven't got a brain between the pair of you.
03:03Steady on, Madge. We're just being practical, that's all.
03:06I mean, if Jim's out, we need a new partner.
03:08I'm telling you something else you haven't thought of.
03:11I mean, Jim's not just any ordinary investor, you know.
03:14You're going to miss out on his experience
03:16and on his contacts in the engineering industry.
03:19I mean, I'm amazed that he's put up with you for so long.
03:22You'll never find another partner to be that patient.
03:24Oh, she's right there, you know, about his contacts.
03:27And he has been organized as spare parts for number 13.
03:30Perhaps we were a bit hasty, eh?
03:32All right, all right. Well, I'll sort things out with Jim.
03:35Satisfied?
03:37And I might have been a bit hard on young Henry, too.
03:41Maybe we can think about that. Fair enough?
03:44Well, I suppose that's the best we can expect, isn't it?
03:47I haven't shown that much Christian charity myself lately.
03:50How does a good book put it?
03:51Just, er, someone smite you on one cheek, turn the other?
03:54Well, if that means bury the hatchet, you've won me.
03:56Mm-hmm.
03:57Well, come on.
03:59Oh.
04:01Oh, miracles will never cease.
04:04If you're crying, won't even talk to me.
04:07What were you going to say to her?
04:08The truth. She's got to face it.
04:10Hmm.
04:11We can't mollycoddle her.
04:13She comes back home playing the princess.
04:15Well, now she has some very hard lessons to learn.
04:18Loving her doesn't mean always protecting her.
04:21That's the hard part.
04:22What am I supposed to do with all this?
04:23Waste not, want not.
04:24With Scott in the house, we have a resident locust.
04:27In any case, I'm hardly in a position to criticize Lucy.
04:30I was pretty juvenile myself tonight.
04:32May I ask for it?
04:33No, even so.
04:35Look, bury this in the fridge, will you?
04:37I'm going back over to Madge's to sort this little lot out.
04:48Time for a word, Jim.
04:49Come in.
04:54An extremely regrettable situation, Jim.
04:56Please, please.
04:57I was just on my way over to apologize for my behavior.
05:00Yes, well, we were a little disappointed.
05:04Which is not to say we're not prepared to give you a second chance.
05:07Under second conditions, of course.
05:09I was going to apologize for walking out.
05:11I'll tell you that I changed my mind.
05:13Second chance?
05:14Well, that's all of us, right?
05:16Yeah.
05:17All of us.
05:18Well, we were all at fault.
05:20Us, probably more than you.
05:21Right, Harold?
05:22Oh, well, rather crudely put, but...
05:25Why do you want a good thing to stick to it, eh?
05:28Um, I wonder if you three could manage a second meal.
05:32I'd be very grateful if you could help me out with some leftovers.
05:35Well, we could do with a few nibblies, if we're not imposed.
05:37Yeah.
05:38To the kitchen.
05:39To the kitchen.
05:40Right.
05:42I feel guilty.
05:44Why?
05:45Feeling happy.
05:47Save it for the losers, honey.
05:48When I'm this close to what I want, feels like a birthday.
05:52This close?
05:54Yeah, not long now.
05:56She's nearly ready to roll.
05:58The car.
05:59Of course.
06:01Well, the sooner she's ready, the sooner we can sell it, then we'll have the steak we need.
06:04That's practical.
06:05You didn't sound practical.
06:06You sounded like you were in love.
06:09I am.
06:11So what happens?
06:13With what?
06:14Well, you and Dad decide the car's ready.
06:16Then what happens?
06:17Someone's going to buy it, sight unseen?
06:20Tests?
06:21Well, no one's going to buy it without tests.
06:22That's obvious, isn't it?
06:24So who tests the car?
06:28Not you. Promise me that.
06:29Gail.
06:30Promise me.
06:31All right, if you feel that way about it.
06:35Of course I'll promise.
06:37I wish I could believe one word you said.
06:41Then believe this.
06:58Oh, come on.
07:01Even Emma didn't come.
07:11I know how you feel, darling.
07:12You don't.
07:14I do.
07:15It happened to me once, when I was at school.
07:20I was a bit older than you. I was at high school.
07:22I had just won the cross-country run.
07:24I thought I was the best thing since sliced bread.
07:28I was a pain in the neck.
07:29I didn't realize it until my friends told me to get lost.
07:32Some friends.
07:34Well, when I woke up to myself, I got my mates back.
07:37I don't care if I never see my friends again.
07:39I hate them.
07:40No problem, is it?
07:41No problem, is it?
07:45The friends that really count don't change, darling.
07:49You just have to have the courage to say you're sorry.
07:51It doesn't matter how big or independent they are, Jim, it's funny the way they managed to drop in at mealtime.
08:02Pure coincidence, I merely dropped in to say good morning to my little sister.
08:04No, but since you're not interested in breakfast.
08:06No, since I'm here.
08:07Since he's here.
08:08I thought there might be spears.
08:10Well, yes, there might be.
08:11As long as you get your brother out of that shower.
08:13Or he'll be late for picking shouting up from the hospital.
08:15That I can handle.
08:18Come on, darling.
08:19Finish your breakfast, you'll be late to school.
08:21I'm not going.
08:24There's no solution.
08:25They'll all laugh at me.
08:26Not the ones that really matter.
08:28Remember what I said last night?
08:29I'm not going.
08:30Your father's right, darling.
08:31I can't.
08:39Good morning, Emma.
08:40Is Lucy home, Mr. Robinson?
08:42Yeah, come in.
08:44Lucy?
08:45G'day, Emma.
08:48Hi, Lucy.
08:49What are you doing here?
08:50I felt bad about last night.
08:52Well, why didn't you come?
08:53I didn't want the others to pick on me.
08:56I'm sorry.
08:57I deserved it.
08:58I invited everyone here to show them boring slides in a Skype about going overseas.
09:02It was just showing off.
09:04Are you coming to school?
09:05I'm going to school now.
09:06Bye, everyone.
09:07Bye.
09:10Suppose they do pick on you.
09:12I don't care.
09:13You're my friend.
09:14What was all that about?
09:15No one turned up to Lucy's party last night.
09:16I'm proud of her.
09:17Yes, I am too.
09:18But I don't think she'll find many of her friends as generous as Emma.
09:19It might already be too late.
09:20Come on, Gran, that's a bit heavy, isn't it?
09:21Well, she didn't feel comfortable about going back to her old school.
09:22And now she might have a good reason to hate it.
09:23Oh, Henry, what am I supposed to do with this?
09:24Mum, give me a break.
09:25You were quite cheerful last night.
09:26Now you're in the depths of despair.
09:27Well, that's the way it goes.
09:28I was looking forward to today.
09:29You're not going to be a party last night.
09:30I'm proud of her.
09:31I'm proud of her.
09:32Yes, I am too.
09:33But I don't think she'll find many of her friends as generous as Emma.
09:34It might already be too late.
09:35Come on, Gran, that's a bit heavy, isn't it?
09:36Well, she didn't feel comfortable about going back to her old school.
09:39And now she might have a good reason to hate it.
09:41Oh, Henry, what am I supposed to do with this?
09:43Mum, give me a break.
09:45You were quite cheerful last night.
09:46Now you're in the depths of despair.
09:48Well, that's the way it goes.
09:50I was looking forward to today.
09:52I really wanted it to be special with your sister coming home from hospital.
09:55Couldn't you at least make an effort?
09:57Well, I'm real sorry to spoil the party, Mum.
10:00Pardon me for being out of work.
10:01Pardon me for living.
10:02Oh, Henry, there's no need to adopt that tone.
10:05Anyway, you shouldn't be sitting here feeling sorry for yourself.
10:07You should be out looking.
10:08I've looked.
10:09I can't lie about doing time.
10:11They check up anyway.
10:12No one's going to give me a go, Mum.
10:14Morning.
10:15Oh, hello, Harold.
10:16Come on in.
10:17Would you like a cup of tea?
10:18I would love one.
10:20Morning, Henry.
10:23Um, had quite a long chat with Rob after we left the Robinsons last night.
10:27Oh, Jim's back on side, by the way.
10:29Oh, that's a relief.
10:30And Rob's attitudes may have mellowed a bit, too.
10:33As a matter of fact, if we play our cards right, you know, use a little tact,
10:38he might even offer Henry a job, if he's asked nicely.
10:41A job?
10:43Hmm.
10:44Oh, there won't be anything special.
10:45You know, just working the Bowersers or something like that.
10:47I wouldn't work for Rob Lewis if he paid me a grand a week.
10:51He can stick it.
10:52Harold, I'm sorry.
10:57No, it's Henry we should be feeling sorry for.
11:00He's painting himself into a corner.
11:01I should have realised how he'd be feeling.
11:03You are only trying to help Harold.
11:04Henry knows that.
11:06Hmm.
11:07Anyway, I called around here for something else altogether.
11:11I thought we might be able to fix a date for the wedding.
11:14Oh, well, um, I think we should leave it a little bit longer, don't you?
11:18But why?
11:19We know how we feel about each other.
11:21Why delay it?
11:22Look, I tell you what, why don't you come around here for dinner tonight?
11:25Charlene will be home and we can talk it over as a family.
11:29Ah, I like that.
11:32A family conference.
11:33Excellent.
11:34Yes.
11:37You should be at the bank.
11:38They can do without me today.
11:39Des.
11:40No argument.
11:41If you don't stop fussing, I swear I'll dong you over the head with the first blunt instrument
11:44I can lay my hands on.
11:45But I can't leave you by yourself.
11:47The bank.
11:49All right, all right, but don't take the phone off the hook.
11:53How's the patient?
11:54Aggressive.
11:55See you later.
11:56Helen, Meals on Wheels.
11:58No leftovers from a minor tragedy.
12:01I saw Des drive up, so I thought you'd do without cooking today.
12:04Much appreciated.
12:05I just threw Des out.
12:07And Clive said I should avoid stress and nothing's more stressful than Des when he means well.
12:11Or any other husband, for that matter.
12:12Is everything all right?
12:13I'm fine, really, and so is the baby.
12:15Daphne!
12:16I saw Des drive up at...
12:18Oh, Helen, you beat me to it.
12:20All contributions gratefully accepted.
12:22Des eats like a horse when he's anxious.
12:24Well, Harold tells me all's well that ends well last night.
12:27So it seems.
12:28If Harold said anything to upset Jim, there was nothing personal, if you know what I mean.
12:32Of course not, Madge.
12:33Anyway, I believe in letting them fight their own battles.
12:36Amen to that.
12:37Look, Daphne, I can't stay.
12:38Scott will be arriving with Charlene.
12:40Home for good.
12:41It's a real weight off my mind.
12:43When did you last talk to her?
12:44Yesterday, at the hospital.
12:45Why?
12:46Oh, she seems a lot happier now that she and Scott have got their act together.
12:50And that friendship ring he gave her was lovely.
12:52Yes, well, I don't know that I'm too happy about a commitment like that.
12:55Oh, come on, Madge.
12:57There's little enough romance in the world.
12:59Helen, I want Charlene to be a lot older and wiser before she graduates to one of the...
13:03Oh, no.
13:04Don't tell me.
13:05What's wrong?
13:06The diamond, it's gone.
13:07No.
13:08So it's going to be open forum and debate tomorrow, but then they want to split up into working parties.
13:13So we're going to have to be on the ball facilities-wise to cope with that.
13:16You are avoiding the issue.
13:17What's the issue?
13:18I can handle conferences like that with my eyes closed, and you know it.
13:21What we should be discussing is how you're going to break the news to Mr Utagawa that the engagements are.
13:23Look, what is the big deal, for crying out loud?
13:24He's not going to be back from Alice Springs for a few days yet.
13:25Well, if you don't tell him, I will.
13:26I'll take the blame.
13:27I walked out on you, okay?
13:28Look, we've been through all of this before.
13:29I said I'll handle it my way, so just get off my back, will you?
13:32Look, I know your ex-husband has forced you into this.
13:33I don't know why.
13:34He doesn't like people who are avoiding the issue.
13:35What's the issue?
13:36I can handle conferences like that with my eyes closed, and you know it.
13:37What we should be discussing is how you're going to break the news to Mr Utagawa that the engagements are.
13:38I'll take the blame.
13:39I walked out on you, okay?
13:41Look, we've been through all of this before.
13:43I said I'll handle it my way, so just get off my back, will you?
13:46Look, I know your ex-husband has forced you into this.
13:49I don't know why.
13:50He doesn't like people thinking that we're engaged.
13:53He wants us to get married again.
13:55And you said yes.
13:57I have, and that's the last comment I want to hear about it.
13:59Got that?
14:00Once the car's sold, we can make a fresh start.
14:03You've got it all planned, haven't you?
14:05There's just one thing that puzzles me about this romantic decision.
14:09People in love shouldn't keep secrets, should they?
14:12So I suppose he's already told you where he got the money to buy number 13?
14:16It doesn't matter.
14:17Yell, if it doesn't matter, why hasn't he told you?
14:22I'm sorry, Rob. We should only be a minor delay.
14:24Not to worry, mate.
14:26Have you got them? The suspension parts.
14:29I'm sorry, Jeremy.
14:30I was just explaining to Rob that we've been flat out at the works,
14:32and we just haven't got them finished.
14:34Take it easy.
14:36A couple of days' delay won't make any difference.
14:38I just want to get her on the track.
14:45Henry's shifted all the furniture,
14:46and we've been over the carpet with a fine-tooth comb.
14:49No luck.
14:50It must be here.
14:51That's every room in the house cupboard, Madge.
14:53I mean, it really is a needle in the haystack, you know that.
14:55I'll just have to go through the whole place again.
14:57Mum, it could have fallen out in the street, anywhere.
14:59Don't even say that!
15:01Madge, I have to go to work, I'm sorry.
15:03Oh, Helen.
15:04Oh, thanks for helping.
15:05Well, good luck.
15:06Thanks, bye.
15:07Bye.
15:08What am I going to tell Harold?
15:11That I'm the kind of brainless, careless woman who loses diamonds?
15:14Oh, come on, he can't blame you for this.
15:16Harold has never lost anything in his life.
15:19I'm sure he's got his baby teeth packed away somewhere.
15:22Madge will find it.
15:23No, it's like Helen says, it's a needle in a haystack.
15:27Hang on, hang on.
15:28I can fix it.
15:30How?
15:31Trust me.
15:32Come on.
15:38Out of the question, forget it.
15:40I, owner, it's my decision.
15:42I don't give a tinker's curse.
15:44Until the suspension fittings arrive, that car doesn't go anywhere near a racetrack.
15:48Rob, you know as well as I do that the steering's an unknown quantity.
15:51Forget it.
15:52Look, that's all I want to test, just to see how she handles.
15:57I won't be going at any speed, so the lack of suspension fittings won't make any difference.
16:01One spin around the track, then we'll know where we stand.
16:04Anyway, we can work on that while we're waiting for the other pass to arrive.
16:07Yeah, well you've got something there.
16:09Well then?
16:10No, no, no.
16:11It's too risky.
16:12I don't like it.
16:13Look, I'm not suggesting I go out there by myself.
16:16I want you there.
16:17You can control all the tests.
16:19Oh, alright.
16:20Anything for peace.
16:21As long as you do as you're told.
16:28Well, if Gail lost her engagement ring, how would you react?
16:32I haven't bored her.
16:33I mean, would you be angry?
16:34Would she be frightened?
16:35Well, I suppose not.
16:37Of course not.
16:38But do you think I can make Madge see that?
16:40She's absolutely paranoid about Harold's reaction.
16:43Personally, I think you'll be perfectly understanding.
16:46Oh, sure.
16:50Am I keeping you awake?
16:52Oh, sorry, Gran.
16:53I didn't mean to be rude.
16:54Oh, and I didn't mean to ramble on.
16:56Where is Gail?
16:58Oh, she had things to do.
17:00Um, I'm not prying, Paul, but your father did say that the engagement wasn't exactly smooth sailing.
17:11The engagement's off, Gran.
17:13Well, I told Dad that.
17:14But he seemed to think it wasn't definite that you might work it out.
17:17Oh, I'm sorry, darling.
17:20She's setting herself up to be hurt all over again.
17:24It's like rewinding a bad movie.
17:26You mean she's going back to Jeremy?
17:29But you know.
17:30Well, she confessed that she felt something for him, but I thought when you two were engaged, I'd hoped that she'd get him out of her system.
17:38She's such a sensible girl.
17:40Why is she doing this?
17:41Oh, I don't know.
17:42He's got some hold over her.
17:43She's like a snake with a rabbit.
17:50Right, let's get it over with.
17:51Take it up to 6,000 revs, no more.
17:535,000 if you like.
17:55Then once around the track and bring her in.
17:57Twice.
17:58Once.
17:59You'll watch your blood pressure.
18:00Dad?
18:01What are you doing here?
18:02Get out of the car.
18:03Who told you we were here?
18:05Stan told me at the garage.
18:06Get out of the car, Jeremy.
18:07You promised me you'd never drive it.
18:10He's not racing it, love.
18:11He's just cruising it around the track.
18:13You lied to me.
18:14What else are lies?
18:15Where did you get the money to buy the car?
18:19Come on, Jeremy.
18:20Where did you get it?
18:26What's all this about lies?
18:28You know, Jeremy.
18:34Ow!
18:35What are you doing?
18:37Oh, I thought I might have dropped it in the cupboard this morning when I was looking for a saucepan.
18:41Oh, burning the house down for the insurance, are you?
18:43Oh, no!
18:45Oh!
18:46Black, come on, Dad.
18:47Get your knickers in a knot.
18:48Oh.
18:49I've got some good news for you.
18:50Oh, don't tell me.
18:51I want a cruise for two on the Titanic.
18:52Uh-uh.
18:54You found it!
18:55Well, not exactly.
18:56What?
18:57What, it's here?
18:58Looks the same, then.
18:59Well, of course it does.
19:00It does.
19:01Good, good, good.
19:02What's that supposed to mean?
19:03Well, it means...
19:04I'm glad it looks the same.
19:05Well, why shouldn't it?
19:06Because it isn't.
19:07Henry, don't tell me this is somebody else's diamond.
19:09It's not a diamond at all.
19:10It's glass!
19:11Glass?
19:12Well, I picked up an El Tipo kids' ring down at the flea market and...
19:15Bingo!
19:16Instant diamond.
19:17But, Henry, I can't walk around with a piece of glass in Harold's ring.
19:21Who's gonna know?
19:22Well, Harold won't be fooled.
19:24I've fooled you.
19:25But that's not the point.
19:26Mum, look, it's odds on that the diamond's somewhere in the house.
19:29I'm just buying us time to find it, that's all.
19:32But it's the deception, Henry.
19:34I mean, lying to Harold.
19:35It's the principle of the thing.
19:37Well, suit yourself.
19:40Tell him the truth.
19:41On the other hand...
19:42He'll never know the difference.
19:47It's much too fast!
20:17Like, take a big run!
20:18Let's go!
