00:00Neighbours, everybody needs good neighbours
00:05With a little understanding
00:08You can find the perfect blend
00:13Neighbours should be there for one another
00:21That's when good neighbours become good
00:30Friend
00:32Show yourself!
00:39This is very good with animals
00:43Mel?
00:45Mel, what is it?
00:49Are you ill?
00:51In a manner of speaking, yes
00:54What happened?
00:56It's something almost beyond human comprehension
01:03I thought I heard a crying sound
01:09It seemed to be coming from the chimney
01:11And when I looked up there
01:14Something was looking back at me
01:17Surely not
01:18Something evil, Mrs. Daniels
01:20Its terrible eyes bored right into my soul
01:24Don't, Mrs. Daniels, don't
01:30You could disappear forever into another dimension
01:33Just like the previous tenants
01:35Just stay there, Mel
01:41Tony
01:42Right here, Mrs. Daniels
01:43Could you come up here for a second, please?
01:45Sure
01:47I'm afraid we'll have to take the risk of someone disappearing into another dimension, Mel
01:51Give him bounce a run of the courtyard
01:53Good
01:54What's up?
01:56Well, we're not quite sure
01:58But we think there's a bird or a possum up the chimney
02:04Well, you may think that
02:05But I certainly don't
02:06With eyes like those
02:08It could well have been the devil himself
02:10I hate to ask this
02:11Would you mind having a look?
02:12Oh, gee
02:13I don't know
02:14Must I?
02:22Don't do be careful
02:31It's you, is it?
02:34Come on
02:36I've got you
02:41A cat?
02:42I was scared of a cat
02:44It's okay, Satan
02:45You're safe now
02:46You know it?
02:47Yeah
02:48Yeah, it lives around here somewhere
02:49I've heard the local kids calling it
02:51I was so spooked by those ghost stories
02:53I didn't stop to think the Burmese cats could sound like babies crying
02:56There must have been some psychic static or something
03:00Well, they do say that cats were often used by witches
03:03Witches and warlocks
03:05No
03:06That's not the connection
03:07My exact words were
03:09It could well be the devil himself
03:11As it's turned out I could hardly be more correct
03:14I mean, his name is Satan, isn't it?
03:17So, if we can help Scott get ahead a bit, he might get a decent night's sleep for once
03:25He looks like death warmed up at the moment
03:27Why don't mind doing a bit more work?
03:28Tell you the truth, it's good to get outside for a while
03:30Yeah, I guess it will be
03:31Well, at least there's one good thing
03:33Tonight's his last night at the supermarket
03:35Hi
03:36Hi, Mrs Ramsey
03:37How'd it go?
03:38Well, as a gardener I think I make a good mechanic
03:41But I've got a fair bit done
03:42Oh well, many hands meet like work
03:44Yeah
03:45Do you want some OJ?
03:46Yes, please
03:47Um, Mrs Ramsey, you haven't seen Nan anywhere, have you?
03:49No, Jane, we didn't have our usual tea and scones this morning
03:53Why, has she gone missing?
03:55Oh, she's gone somewhere
03:56Mr Bishop's getting a bit impatient about his dinner
03:58Oh, honestly, sometimes I can throttle that man
04:00You know, he knows he's quite welcome to come and join us
04:02But he's so determined to get his money's worth over
04:04Honey, calm down
04:05How silly enough to dip out on your cooking
04:07Well, that's his problem
04:08I suppose so
04:10But you know, I can just picture him sitting at the table
04:12With his knife and fork in his hands
04:13Waiting for Mrs Mangle to walk through the door
04:15I think all this writing business has improved his appetite
04:18All this writing business
04:20I can't believe it
04:22Just because Scott gets a bit of a break
04:24Old Harold baby thinks he can pick up a pen and write a story
04:27Well, he hasn't actually written it
04:28No, he better not either
04:29There's only room enough for one writer around here
04:32Oh, where's Henry?
04:34Is he doing some more physio?
04:36Uh, no, no, he's gone out with Sally
04:40Oh, that's typical, isn't it?
04:43Here we are putting in extra hours to help him out
04:45And where's Henry? He's out having fun with Sally Wells
04:47Oh, people make me sick sometimes
04:50God, I'm gonna have a shower
04:52I suppose she's got a point
04:56Mmm, unquestionably
04:57I just wish he learned to control her temper
04:59I hope Henry knows what he's doing
05:01Probably not, why?
05:02Well, it seems he's not the only one who's interested in Sally Wells
05:05Tony Romeo's chasing after her as well
05:08Oh
05:15Born out?
05:16Not at all, I was just waiting for you to catch up
05:18You didn't have to, you know
05:19I was just pacing myself
05:21Oh, right
05:22Why'd you come up here anyway?
05:24Henry left his wallet in the bag last night
05:27Just wanted to drop it into him
05:28I'm surprised you got any energy left, you didn't get home till late
05:32I didn't realise you were waiting up for me
05:34I wasn't, I was still awake
05:36But Henry took me to see my play with his jazz band
05:39I had a great time
05:40Yeah?
05:41Having a bad back doesn't seem to have cramped his style at all
05:46If you get a chance, could you drop home today?
05:48I don't know how Mum's gonna be able to cope with Jamie by herself
05:51Yeah, shouldn't be a problem
05:52I've got plenty of study time until that prac teaching class
05:54Hi, Dad, hi Mike
05:59Hi
06:00Hi
06:01Hi
06:02Hi
06:03Hi
06:04Hi
06:05How's your Mum?
06:06Well, fingers crossed, but she seems to be over the worst
06:08Let's hope so
06:10You and me both, Sally
06:12You and me both
06:14Tessland
06:15I was just about to make a fresh pot of tea, would you like some?
06:25Oh no, thanks Mum, I've had enough
06:27And, well, I'm about it
06:30Could I have another tablet, please?
06:32Do you really think you need one?
06:33You said last night you were feeling better yourself
06:35Oh, oh I am, I am
06:37It's just that I might feel a bit fragile later on
06:40All right
06:48Thank you
06:49I'll just save it for later
06:51But why don't you leave the bottle on the bench?
06:54Well, I mean in case you're not here
06:56I might never need another one, of course
07:00Yeah, all right, you know what you're doing
07:02You seem to be almost off a minimum
07:04Yes, quite so
07:05Are you sure you wouldn't like another cup of tea?
07:07Oh, no thanks
07:08I'll just have a quick flick through the paper
07:10Then I'll go and pick up Jamie
07:11You can cope with him all day today, can't you Mum?
07:14Oh, of course I can
07:16I can cope with babies, I can cope with housework
07:18I can cope with everything
07:28Heaven knows why they called it Satan
07:30Still, it's the only one of my previous tenants that hasn't disappeared
07:35Well, Tony said that he's heard the local children calling it
07:39Yes, well, once it was clear that Mary Barrett wasn't coming back
07:43I gave it to an old lady a few houses down
07:46Well, Satan seems to think she is coming back
07:48I mean, he keeps hiding and waiting for her in the chimney
07:50And crying like a baby
07:52That really is amazing how close
07:54That really is amazing how close they sound, isn't it?
07:58Yes, it's uncanny
08:00Well, the mystery's been sold, I'll take him home
08:03And I'll have that hole in the chimney bricked up
08:05But surely the cat is only part of the mystery, Mr. Phillips
08:08Mary Barrett and her baby were not placed with a woman a few houses down
08:13Look, I'm in real estate
08:15Mrs. Dan was not the twilight zone
08:17Had all that furniture and stuff in storage
08:19I won't make that expense forever
08:21If I don't hear from her soon, I'll have to auction it off
08:24Good morning
08:25Good morning
08:26Oh, good morning
08:28Mr. Phillips, my landlord
08:34Ah
08:35Say, young rat
08:37I bet you're missing all the excitement of Ramsey Street
08:39Oh, I've had enough excitement around here for a while
08:42Our friendly neighborhood ghost turned out to be a boney's cat up the chimney
08:48How are Jim and Beverly enjoying their honeymoon?
08:56Ah, looks like they're going to be spending most of it in Adelaide
08:59Well, they left this morning to take Todd and Katie back
09:01So we're going to have Lucy while they're awake
09:05Gran? You okay?
09:08Gran?
09:09Oh, yes, yes, I'm fine
09:10It's just this ghost business
09:12It's really got me intrigued
09:14No one cares what's happened to Mary Barrett and her baby
09:17No one with me, that is
09:19No one with me, that is
09:20Come on, mate
09:32In we go
09:33Mom?
09:34Oh, Desmond
09:35I was just doing some house...
09:37Oh, my little Jamie
09:42Come on, put him down over here
09:44Come on
09:45Hello, my darling
09:47Hello
09:48Oh, this business for the father, it's a terrible strain on death
09:52Doesn't seem fair that you should watch somebody waste away like that
09:57Oh, well
09:59Waste not, want not
10:00That's what I always say
10:02Huh?
10:03Okay
10:04It's enough to get to work
10:06Now, Jamie's teething at the moment, so don't forget, you might grizzle a bit
10:10I have been through this before, Desmond
10:13Yeah, and Mike's gonna drop home a lot later, but, um, in case it'll get a bit too much for you, but it won't get a bit too much
10:19Desmond, don't be ridiculous
10:21We can survive without you, but the bank can't go after work
10:24What?
10:25See you, mate
10:26See you
10:28See you, Sport
10:32If I'd let anything happen to my little Jamie, hmm?
10:45No, mate
10:46Mary Barrett doesn't ring any bells with me
10:48Of course, if she was a customer, I couldn't give you any forwarding address
10:51No, no, it's not that big a deal
10:53My grand seems interested in tracking her down for some reason, I don't know why
10:58Look, mate, I might head back
11:00I was late in this morning, picking up Jamie
11:02Or dropped me in my place and saw that
11:04There's a ton of things I want to do in between
11:07Maybe a bit of a rough stretch, eh?
11:09Yeah, mate
11:10It never rains
11:13Look, if Gail and I can help in any way
11:15Babysitting or whatever, all you have to do is ask
11:18Yeah, well, thanks, mate
11:19Well, things aren't that bad
11:22Not at home, anyway
11:24Daph is going through hell with her, Daph
11:26It's the worst thing about a long lingering death
11:28You almost look forward to it being over
11:30How's your mum, Des? Any improvement?
11:34Yeah, there is, thanks, Madge
11:38In fact, she's getting more like her old self all the time
11:41Shhh
11:43No, don't cry, Jamie
11:46Shhh, don't cry
11:48Shhh, there
11:50There
11:51Rockabye, baby
12:02On the treetop
12:05When the wind blows
12:09The cradle will rock
12:12Oh, Jamie.
12:42No, don't look at Grandma like that, Jamie.
13:04She's not well.
13:06She needs some medicine.
13:09Listen, just as well I like to work for a living.
13:13Yes, and just as well I haven't gone back to work for a living.
13:16You've given up the rioting.
13:18Oh, he's put it aside for a while.
13:20But he decided to take it up in the first place.
13:22Oh, Scott got a hundred bucks for this article he did,
13:24so Harold thought he'd try his hand at it as well.
13:28But he's doing this thing about dogs,
13:29and I'm just wondering where he's got his inspiration from.
13:39Manners, Mr. Young.
13:48Oh, blast and botheration.
13:52What carelessness.
13:55I don't suppose it matters to you
13:56that this could be worth his waiting $10 notes.
13:58Sorry, Harold.
13:58I was just interested to read what you were writing about.
14:00That's all.
14:01Oh, really?
14:03Well, why didn't you say so?
14:06There you are.
14:09Pests, vermin, not unlike rats with collars.
14:12Nice turn of phrase, don't you think?
14:14They create absolute havoc,
14:16uprooting rose bushes and causing often irreparable damage.
14:18Harold, I don't think this is very fair.
14:20What?
14:21Well, just because Bouncer ripped up Mrs. Mangles' rose bushes once
14:24doesn't make him the scourge of the neighbourhood, does it?
14:25Well, no, perhaps not,
14:27but unsupervised dogs can be the bane of our very existence.
14:30They not only dig up gardens,
14:32they tip over garbage bins and they...
14:37foul the football.
14:38In my opinion, unsupervised dogs roaming the street
14:41should be taken from their owners and impounded immediately.
14:44Surely, Mr. Bishop,
14:45you wouldn't want Bouncer to be impounded, would you?
14:46Yeah, you're just trying to take it out on dogs
14:48because you're allergic to it.
14:49I assure you nothing to be further from the truth.
14:52Mr. Bishop, a journalist is supposed to present a story
14:54with a balanced point of view.
14:55The only paper you could sell that to
14:57would be the Dog Catcher's Gazette.
14:59Yeah, I mean, you obviously don't care about
15:00what comfort a dog can bring to an old or lonely person, do you?
15:02Or someone who's blind.
15:03Yeah, I think you're the blind one, Harold.
15:05And I just hope the Erinsborough News
15:06has got more respect for its readers
15:08than to publish something so obviously biased.
15:09Jamie, what's the matter, mate?
15:31Where's Grandma?
15:32Oh, no wonder you're having a wind here
15:36when we're going to have you soak right through.
15:38Mrs. Clark?
15:43Mrs. Clark?
15:49Mrs. Clark, are you all right?
15:50Uh-huh.
15:51Uh-huh.
15:52Oh, I'm just going to change Jamie
15:55and take him for a walk, all right?
16:01Mm.
16:02Hmm, sorry?
16:04I said, mm.
16:06Oh, that's hardly what I call feedback, Madge.
16:09I don't know that this deserves any feedback.
16:11What do you mean?
16:12I mean, Harold, that I don't like it.
16:14You have been very unfair to man's best friend.
16:17In fact, the whole thing's not much more
16:18than a bad-tempered whinge.
16:19No, no, wait a minute.
16:20Perhaps my rather elegant literary style
16:22has eluded you, eh?
16:23Harold, this article has as much style
16:25as a one-legged duck.
16:27And it paints a picture of the writer
16:29that is far from appealing.
16:30An artist is not in the business of making friends.
16:32Yes, well, you've certainly succeeded there, haven't you?
16:34I mean, I'm getting used to...
16:36It's a twist to you being mean with money,
16:37but it seems to say you're becoming mean-spirited as well.
16:39It's being careful with money
16:41that will put me in a position to marry.
16:43Well, Harold Bishop,
16:44by the time you are in a position,
16:46I may have changed my mind
16:47about the kind of man I want to marry.
16:49So how do you like them apples?
16:53Well, I...
16:54Well, she does have a point, Mr Bishop.
16:58Well, I mean, so far,
17:01no-one's liked your article.
17:03Perhaps you should start again.
17:06Absolutely not, Sally.
17:08If some people can't control their jealousies
17:10long enough to compliment other people
17:11on their challenge,
17:12well, then they have got a problem.
17:15Why would we be jealous?
17:16Why?
17:17Because there are the haves and the have-nots.
17:19Well, fortunately, I have.
17:22There's a borough typewriter,
17:23type this up and submit it.
17:25The Erran's free news
17:26will undoubtedly respond to its perspicacity.
17:29And, of course, once you've pumped the air,
17:30the lines you do up, the blades screw...
17:32And top up the fluid.
17:33Right?
17:34Top up the fluid, if it needs it.
17:36I thought you were the apprentice I was a mechanic.
17:38Yeah, you are.
17:40I went through this routine with Rob Lewis.
17:42Oh, it doesn't seem to matter which way I turn, lady.
17:45There's always a woman one step ahead of me.
17:47How do you mean?
17:48Well, Sally beat me home from our morning jog.
17:50Oh, bad luck.
17:53Well, my own fault, really.
17:54I've been slacking off my gym lift,
17:56you know, losing my edge.
17:58Fully fit, she wouldn't stand a chance.
18:00You sure you aren't my long-lost other brother?
18:03You sound just like Henry.
18:05Sally brings out the show-off in him, too.
18:07Nearly killed himself last time.
18:10How are things between Sally and Henry?
18:13They went out last night.
18:14Oh, did they?
18:15Come on, Charlene, you've got to help out a bit.
18:18How serious are they?
18:19Look, Tony, in the first place,
18:21Henry's love life is his business,
18:22and in the second place,
18:23Sally's the one in the middle of all this, not me.
18:26Just lay off, hmm?
18:27I really blew it by asking her to move in.
18:30You should never get involved with your flatmate.
18:32Says who?
18:34Des and Daph and Stephanie started out as flatmates,
18:37and they seem to have got pretty involved.
18:43Mum?
18:47Mum?
18:50Mum, wake up!
18:50Um, I'll...
18:52I'll wait, um...
18:53Hold on, I'll do it.
18:57Um, um...
19:00Where's Jan?
19:04It's in the pram.
19:05His pram isn't even here.
19:07It's in the... in the nursery.
19:09I've already checked in there.
19:10I don't know, Desmond.
19:12What do you mean you don't know?
19:14Oh, I get it.
19:16You've been on those damn pills again, haven't you?
19:18Don't shout, Desmond.
19:19You're giving me a headache.
19:20What do you think you've been giving me lately, eh?
19:24See?
19:25Here you are.
19:26There's no need to panic.
19:27That's what you told me the last time.
19:29Why didn't you tell Mum you were taking Jamie out for a walk?
19:32Didn't it occur to you that she'd be worried?
19:34I didn't even tell her.
19:36She was a bit sleepy, but I...
19:37But...
19:38I don't know.
19:40Neighbors, everybody needs good neighbors.
19:46Just a friendly way each morning
19:49Helps to make a better day.
19:57Neighbors need to get to know each other.
20:02Next door is only a footstep away
20:10Neighbors, everybody needs good neighbors
20:19With a little understanding
20:23You can find the perfect plan
20:28Neighbors should be there for one another
20:35That's when good neighbors become good friends
