00:00Previously on Neighbours.
00:02The trust will be administered by...
00:04By Miss Sadie Rodwell.
00:05We're over.
00:06I don't love you anymore Byron.
00:08She was at the hospital with Byron.
00:10Maybe there's a silver lining to this awful situation.
00:13So how is the induction?
00:14I'm loving it already.
00:15Tay, this is my instructor, Lydia.
00:17We keep our arrangement and your sister-in-law will be fine.
00:20Lydia's just told me that the Academy are bringing forward my law exam.
00:23Lydia's been blackmailing me to sleep with her.
00:26I have to report this to the Academy.
00:28You're making a huge mistake.
00:30Neighbours.
00:33Everybody needs good neighbours.
00:37With a little understanding.
00:42You can find the perfect plan.
00:48Neighbours.
00:51Should be there for one another.
00:55That's when good neighbours need good friends.
01:04So there are photos of Byron as Harvey J, but with Tay's phone number.
01:10Given Tay's been escorting, it's pretty clear that's the connection.
01:15I don't get it.
01:16Were you two working together?
01:17Byron's not escorting again, is he?
01:20No.
01:21Just me.
01:22Right.
01:23Well, thank you for being open.
01:25Thank you for being open.
01:26The connection between Byron's face and Tay's phone number is a client they've both seen.
01:32It's Lydia.
01:34Why just go after Byron then?
01:36The mixed up information on the posters makes me think there's been some cross wires.
01:41So what you're saying is someone went after Byron thinking it was Tay?
01:45Well, Lydia was fine with Byron when they spoke yesterday, but she's still on the outs with Tay.
01:50So maybe she got someone to rough him up and they fumbled it.
01:56That is a very big, very defamatory claim against a fellow cop.
02:03Wait, the client was a cop?
02:05Hey, are you okay?
02:08Sorry, it's just a lot.
02:11The thought that Byron might have been attacked because of me.
02:17I'm going to ask the nurse for extra pills.
02:20If I need them, I can ask when they bring dinner, okay?
02:22There's probably just a minute.
02:23Yeah, we should probably get going.
02:25Well, I'll stay and help you eat.
02:28No need to do that.
02:30I'm happy to.
02:31I'd rather you not.
02:32I need some rest.
02:34Oh, yeah, of course.
02:37No worries.
02:38Yeah, rest on, mate.
02:39But thank you for coming, mate.
02:46I'll see you in the morning.
02:56Ooh, are these from that fancy pastry place?
02:59Yes, and they're not for you.
03:01Oh, they're for Byron.
03:03Oh.
03:04You know what?
03:05It's really nice that you've been there for him.
03:08Morning.
03:10Ah, hey, Holly.
03:11Hey.
03:12Anyway, oops.
03:13I'm off.
03:14I'm going to have a lovely day.
03:15Oh, wait.
03:16Did you end up talking to Nan and Pop about your birth family?
03:20Actually, yeah.
03:21They did.
03:23But you didn't tell me.
03:24I mean, I thought you were waiting until they got back from the cruise.
03:27Yeah, that video called me.
03:28It just felt right to tell them.
03:30Yeah, well, what did they say?
03:32They were amazing.
03:34Yeah, it was a really nice conversation, actually.
03:36It must be a huge relief.
03:38Yeah.
03:40Also, Gretchen sent me a message about a family lunch tomorrow.
03:44She knows it's really last minute, but we're seeing who could make it.
03:47Oh, I'm on day shifts all week this week.
03:49Sorry.
03:50Um, I'll see if I can get someone to cover me and I'll see what I can do.
03:56Also, um, they want me to put together some life memorabilia.
03:59Yeah.
04:00But we'll talk about it tonight.
04:01Okay.
04:02Okay, bye.
04:04I should actually go too.
04:06Oh, wait, let me make a thermos of that chai that Byron likes.
04:09We'll go with the pastries.
04:10Mum, it's fine.
04:11Seriously.
04:12Well, take a minute and, you know, they go perfectly together.
04:17We are not getting back together.
04:19Okay.
04:20Shh.
04:21I gotta go.
04:26So you think that the vandalism might be linked to Byron's assault?
04:29It's a possibility.
04:31And you're telling me because...
04:34Well, you might have information relevant to the investigation.
04:39Is this an interview, Senior Sergeant?
04:42No, I'm just keeping you up to date.
04:45Would you like an alibi?
04:46I can give you my friend's numbers I was with.
04:49It's just that you've got a connection to both men.
04:52This completely justifies my inquiries.
04:55I've met Tay a couple of times.
04:58And my relationship with Byron is my personal business.
05:01Okay, fair enough.
05:03But I'm aware that you were in contact with him the day before the assault.
05:06He initiated that.
05:07He just wanted to know that there was no bad blood between Cara and I, which of course there isn't because I am a professional.
05:16You might have your views on my personal life, but my career is everything and I would never risk that.
05:22She seemed pretty fired up.
05:36Yeah, I offended her.
05:38Offended or worried?
05:39Well, she denied everything.
05:42So unless you guys get me something solid, I suggest you just drop it.
05:51Morning.
05:53What could I got? Your last one.
05:56Oh, thanks for that. I just had breakfast.
05:58Oh, a tasty snack then? For later.
06:00That nurse should be taking me for tests soon. In a minute.
06:06Perfect. I'll read to you until then.
06:09I brought your book.
06:11That was in my bedroom.
06:13Did you go into my room?
06:15Well, I didn't snoot. Promise.
06:17Hi, is this a bad time? I can come back later.
06:21No, please, please come in.
06:23Are those the apple spice ones?
06:26Yeah, and banana berry.
06:28You're the best.
06:29Well, he's just had breakfast, so maybe the nurses want them.
06:33Isn't school about to start?
06:37Yeah.
06:39I better go, but I'll see you later.
06:47You know, I can go too if you want. If you want a rest or...
06:50No, you can't leave me here to eat these all by myself.
06:59Okay.
07:01Saskia, did you sign in at the office?
07:04Oh, I was out at the hospital. I wasn't wagging.
07:06Oh, well, it doesn't matter the reason. If you're late, you either need to register on your app or sign in at the office.
07:15Unauthorised absences need to go on your attendance record.
07:18Um, you know what? You were only a few minutes late. I will let the office know. This time. And next time, to detention.
07:30We're thinking Lydia might be involved.
07:41Lydia?
07:43It is still speculation.
07:45But me and Lydia are on good terms.
07:48Yeah, me not so much. We have a mistaken identity theory.
07:53Hang on, what? Somebody thought I was you.
07:57Well, you just let the police sort it out. You just concentrate on getting better. We should leave you to rest.
08:03Hey, Sates. Wait, wait. Do you think you could stay a bit longer?
08:16Yeah. I mean, I don't start work till after lunch, so...
08:22Um, thanks for keeping me company. It means a lot.
08:28Yeah, that's what mates do. I do it for any friend.
08:31So I've got a few errands to run before work, actually. So I'd better go do them.
08:50You didn't come home till late last night. Where were you?
08:54I told you, I don't have time to talk.
08:56That's such bullshit. You have time, just not for me.
08:57Just go home. Whatever it is, it can wait until tonight.
09:01I just saw you talking to Lydia Hardy.
09:02I'm sorry. She's my mum.
09:06I'm sorry. She's my mum.
09:07Oh.
09:08I'm a student over at the academy. So, yeah, I know you're my mum.
09:09I'm a student over at the academy. So, yeah, I know you're my mum.
09:11I'm a student over at the academy. So, yeah, I know you're mum well.
09:12I'm Kara.
09:13I'm a student over at the academy. So, yeah, I know you're mum well.
09:18I'm Kara. What's your name?
09:19What's your name?
09:20Jessie.
09:21I'm a student over at the academy. So, yeah, I know you're mum well.
09:39Jessie.
09:40Things seemed pretty tense there with your mum, Jessie.
09:48You know, she's under a lot of pressure lately. Being reassigned at work.
09:55No, she never talks about work stuff. She'd probably want to know if an academy recruit
10:00was hassling me though.
10:05me though. I was just checking it. I'll leave you to it.
10:20So Wendy, I just wanted to say thank you for stepping into the breach yesterday.
10:25Of course. How is Byron? I'm a bit battered and bruised, but no, he'll be okay.
10:31I hope he gets better soon. Well, that's one way to treat a gift.
10:40Oh, you made those. Who for?
10:45Oh, never mind. Everything's good.
10:49Okay.
10:54Saskia, quick chat.
10:57Yes, Mrs. Rodwell?
11:02If this is retaliation for me giving you a warning, I'm going to remind you that I was just following school policy.
11:10Where were they? Some students took them from me. I'm so glad you found them.
11:16Hang on. Which students?
11:17I don't know. They disappeared from my pencil case. It's how it started in my old school. I can't go through that again.
11:28Well, you're not going to have to. This school has a zero tolerance policy against bullying.
11:33They said that in Brisbane too.
11:35Well, they don't have the staff that we have here. Okay? We're going to keep on top of it.
11:45A teenager has an argument with his mum and what, you think that's sus?
11:49Well, his mum is sus. That's about the only fact I have to go on right now.
11:53Look, Jessie is definitely on edge.
11:56Yeah, and it checks out. If you just had an argument...
11:59I hate to say this, but it doesn't give us anything solid.
12:02So, my attempt at taking your mind off the negative stuff has failed miserably.
12:07Yeah, that's on me. Sorry.
12:09Yeah, well, selfishly it is taking my mind off the tax stuff I've been doing with Hudson.
12:12It's doing my head in.
12:14So glad I could help. Go long.
12:16Yeah, alright.
12:19Hey, that's him.
12:21Whoa! Heads up!
12:24Hey!
12:27What happened to your hands?
12:33I didn't know you were a gardener.
12:39Call it a self-improvement campaign.
12:42My nails might never recover, though.
12:44Worth the peace of mind, though.
12:46Yeah.
12:48Hey, um, thanks for the talk yesterday.
12:50It gave me some new perspective.
12:52You know, I am occasionally wise.
12:54Yeah, well, you helped me realise that I shouldn't be so hard on myself for wanting more for my mum.
12:58But I should accept her for who she is.
13:00I don't know, I stopped letting men control my sense of self. I should do the same with mum.
13:06Good for you.
13:08Yeah.
13:09Can't promise I'll be any good at it, though.
13:11Well, I'm always here to lend an ear, if you need one.
13:16Thanks.
13:20Hey. Hi.
13:21How do you think you've got to be home?
13:23Yeah, bad news, unfortunately.
13:25I've got to get ready for work.
13:26See ya.
13:27See ya.
13:28So, can't make lunch tomorrow?
13:31I'm so sorry.
13:32We have this VCE art assessment in the morning and an exhibition evening for the parents, so...
13:38Yeah, sounds like something the VCE art teacher really needs to be there for.
13:42I just wish I had a twin.
13:43Yeah.
13:44I wanted to meet Steven and the rest of the family so badly.
13:47Hey, I know it's not your choice.
13:49Responsibilities come with this job.
13:51You know I'm going to make this up to you.
13:54Um, I'm going to take care of the memorabilia stuff.
13:58Yeah, I'm going to do it all.
13:59Would you?
14:00I mean, this is so not my wheelhouse.
14:01Yeah.
14:02Well, maybe...
14:08You've seriously crossed a line talking to my son?
14:12He didn't say much, but he's definitely holding back.
14:15You don't know what you're talking about.
14:18You should have seen his face when I saw his knuckles.
14:20He's a mess.
14:22Haven't you noticed?
14:24His hands are a dead giveaway.
14:27And I'm guessing he doesn't have an alibi for Byron's assault?
14:31Does he know you see escorts?
14:34You're unbelievable.
14:37It's looking a heck of a lot like he found out, and he doesn't like it.
14:41That's motive.
14:42None of this is evidence.
14:44It won't hold up.
14:46I could have called it in already, but I figured you'd just deny it.
14:48Well, that's one thing you've got, right?
14:49Well, this is your shot to stop denying everything and really listen to what I just told you.
14:57Aren't you worried about your son?
15:01About you harassing him?
15:03You bet I am.
15:04No, I wasn't harassing him.
15:06Stop deflecting.
15:07Don't tell me what to do.
15:09Pitya, enough.
15:11Surely you can see this situation is unravelling on you.
15:14The truth is going to come out.
15:15And look, I understand you wanting to protect your career. I do.
15:20But what about Jesse?
15:22He needs you.
15:24And you...
15:26You cannot be there for him without facing up to what you've done.
15:30Lydia.
15:44Thanks for coming.
15:46I won't let you question my son alone.
15:50So, you're coming forward for assaulting Bionstone?
15:54Why do you think it was him?
15:56When I saw the messages on the phone, I just assumed it was the same guys a few years ago.
16:02So there was a burn-up.
16:06And then I saw Mum with him.
16:09The day before?
16:12Snapped.
16:16I mean, our family nearly fell apart the first time.
16:19We haven't been right since.
16:21I just wanted him to stay out of our lives.
16:25I didn't know it was somebody else.
16:29So if Tay wants to make an official complaint, there'll be no more resistance?
16:35Full cooperation?
16:38I want to.
16:42So Lydia was in on it after all.
16:45I'm not sure. Tay said they still need an interviewer.
16:46Well, I wouldn't want to pass her the way that she treated me.
16:49Who wants to join me for lunch?
16:51Oh, sorry, sis. I have to head to the garage.
16:53I've been moving off to Bass for too long.
16:55Yeah, my break's almost over.
16:57Same.
16:58That's cool.
16:59Timing sucks today.
17:01And everywhere.
17:03Look, what happened at the hospital, I hope you don't take it personally.
17:07It's just that I know Byron and his signs and he was just tired.
17:10Is it weird?
17:12Him being your ex but still being his protector?
17:16Well, that's what friends do for each other.
17:19Well, that's what I thought friends did for each other until apparently it came off too romantic.
17:24Well, the pastries were a lot.
17:25Well, then why didn't you tell me?
17:26I was hoping for a relaunch. Sorry, don't we know?
17:29I don't want a relaunch.
17:30So stomp on his heart.
17:32Excuse you?
17:34Poor guy was just bashed half to death.
17:35You lead him on.
17:36Rubbing the salt.
17:37I did not do that.
17:38He's up.
17:39Besides, you don't know the full story.
17:43Sorry.
17:45I didn't mean to.
17:47Just this whole situation's a lot.
17:51Well, I hope you know I would never ever deliberately hurt Byron like that.
17:56Got it?
17:57Okay.
17:58Um, I'm gonna be late.
18:03Okay, um, I'm gonna be late.
18:20Yeah, he's just finishing up some paperwork and I'll bring him over to the hospital.
18:23I think a hug from his big sister will work.
18:28Okay.
18:30So with the messages from the burner phone, we can charge Lydia with perverting the course of justice and sexual servitude.
18:39I'll call you with the next steps.
18:42Thanks.
18:44Let's get out of Barry.
18:45Wait.
18:47I'm sorry.
18:49I never planned this.
18:52My home life was a mess and then when work started to spiral, I, I should have walked away when Tay said no.
19:04But I was just trying to gain some kind of control.
19:06Over people.
19:08People that you're supposed to protect and serve.
19:12I never meant to hurt anyone.
19:15Not Jessie.
19:17Not Byron.
19:18Not you.
19:20And definitely not you Tay.
19:23Lydia.
19:25I'm ready for you.
19:28Hey.
19:31Great work today.
19:36Hi.
19:40Hi.
19:41Hi.
19:42Thank you so much for fitting me in.
19:43It's not a trouble at all.
19:45With everything that's been going on lately myself, Cara's just grounded to a halt.
19:50Well, what were you thinking?
19:52I was going to say massage, but I think what I really need is a bit of a freshen up.
19:58So do you have a facial you'd recommend?
19:59Yeah, we do.
20:01And I also think we should throw in a little massage.
20:04You know, for you to get the full works.
20:06No extra charge as well.
20:07What?
20:09You're amazing.
20:11Well, let's get you into a robe and I'll make you some herbal tea.
20:14You just need to fill out this client survey so I'm aware of all sensitivities.
20:17Okay.
20:18Yeah, the only thing that's an issue is limiting the citrus extract.
20:22So this one here, I have a huge problem with it.
20:25Yeah, that's all good.
20:26We do have this beautiful sensitive skin range called Earth and Dew.
20:31I think it will work perfectly for you.
20:33So later on, you can just sit back, relax and get your glow on.
20:37Okay.
20:38I am so ready.
20:40Go.
20:55Thank you for letting us know.
20:57Are you sure you don't want to press charges?
21:00No, he's just a kid.
21:02I thought Lydia and her husband had an understanding.
21:04I didn't realise I was causing all this pain.
21:07And Jessie, who's suffering all the time, blaming me.
21:11And me.
21:12He just didn't know we were two people.
21:14No, this isn't your fault.
21:17Either of you?
21:18No.
21:20Well, you appreciate you letting us know.
21:21Yeah, of course.
21:24Um, we might go and try and find Remy.
21:28See ya.
21:29Hey.
21:34Hey.
21:35Please do not blame yourself for any of this.
21:37None of it is your fault.
21:39It's not just that, Mum.
21:44If I could fix things, Sadie just needed time.
21:49Oh, darling.
22:00The mask will remove all dead skin cells.
22:03Do your thing, magic mask.
22:05The active ingredient, earthen dew, is the gentlest of the alpha hydroxys.
22:10But it still gets the job done.
22:12Nana was right. You were really good at this.
22:14You're gonna do a really good job with the scholarship program.
22:22It means a lot.
22:25You may start to feel some slight tingling.
22:28No, that's not tingling.
22:29It's burning.
22:31Oh, well, it shouldn't be burning.
22:33It's burning!
22:34It's burning!
22:35It's burning!
22:36It's burning!
22:37It's burning!
22:38It's burning!
22:39It's burning!
22:40It's burning!
22:41It's burning!
22:42Get it off!
22:43It's burning!
22:45Coming up on Neighbours.
22:46Please just respect my boundaries.
22:49I'm into Decs now.
22:51Aaron...
22:52You wanna join us?
22:53Come on.
22:54Don't make it weird.
22:55The Tram will serve it's 82nd thousandth customer.
22:59Please have like a big promotion to celebrate.
