00:01Closer each day
00:04Home and away
00:08Look, I know you don't have a life,
00:10but the only way you're gonna fix it is by getting out there.
00:13Hey!
00:14Sorry!
00:15It's all good.
00:16Am I missing something here?
00:18Don't worry, he has a girlfriend.
00:19Yeah, he's not my boyfriend.
00:22Oh.
00:23Do you wanna get a drink with me?
00:24Just to apologise about this morning.
00:26Don't even worry about it. It's all good.
00:28Okay, I'm into you.
00:30So, I'm gonna be up at Sol if you wanna join me.
00:34Dana is supposed to have Archie,
00:36but she's been called into the hospital and I have to work.
00:38Can you babysit this afternoon?
00:40People need to stop asking me for favours, alright?
00:43Look after your own flippin' kid.
00:45I thought you were a no-show.
00:47Sorry, I kept you waiting.
00:48I assume I scared you off.
00:50No.
00:51Good. Glad.
00:53Should we order at the bar?
00:55So, what's your poison?
00:58Hey, Harper.
00:59Yeah.
01:00I was gonna call you later. How's Colin?
01:01Oh, I'm trying to get over there to see him,
01:02but first I have to find Tana.
01:03Please tell me that he's home.
01:04No, sorry.
01:05Great. He's not answering his phone.
01:06I've already been to the gym. He's not there either.
01:07He came home. He had a shower and he headed out again.
01:08Headed where?
01:09I didn't ask.
01:10Oh, Dana's gonna kill me.
01:11If you see him, can you please tell him to call me?
01:12Will do.
01:13To be honest, I was surprised you asked me out.
01:14I mean, I kinda surprised myself.
01:15It's been a really long time since I've done something like this.
01:16So?
01:17So, I've seen you around in a hospital, you're informed.
01:18What do you do?
01:19I'm a nurse.
01:20I love it.
01:21I love it.
01:22I love it.
01:23I love it.
01:24I love it.
01:25I love it.
01:26I love it.
01:27I love it.
01:28I love it.
01:29I love it.
01:30I love it.
01:31It's been a really long time since I've done something like this.
01:33So?
01:34So I've seen you around in a hospital, you're informed.
01:35What do you do?
01:36I'm a nurse.
01:37I love it.
01:38There's something I've been dying to ask you.
01:39What did you do to annoy my dad?
01:41I might have got involved in a police matter.
01:43Involved?
01:44Mm-hmm.
01:45Do you know Cash Newman?
01:46Yeah.
01:47I helped them make an arrest.
01:48But you're a civilian, huh?
01:49I'm a nurse.
01:50I'm a nurse.
01:51I'm a nurse.
01:52I'm a nurse.
01:53I love it.
01:54I love it.
01:55I love it.
01:56There's something I've been dying to ask you.
01:57What did you do to annoy my dad?
01:59I might have got involved in a police matter.
02:00Involved?
02:01Mm-hmm.
02:02But you're a civilian.
02:04Nice I checked.
02:06Yeah, my dad would have hated that.
02:10Yeah.
02:11Well, you know, my friends were in trouble.
02:13I had to do something.
02:14Bit of a hero then.
02:16That's not the way your dad saw it.
02:18Well, fortunately I'm more open-minded.
02:21Really?
02:22Mm-hmm.
02:23Because, from what I remember, you don't want me helping you fix your car.
02:27Oh, I'm still hung up on that, are you?
02:30I guess so.
02:31Look, for the last time, I'm sorry.
02:35But, a lifetime of lectures on self-defense makes you cautious.
02:39My dad's a cop, remember?
02:41Mm-hmm.
02:44I'd really appreciate if we could start over.
02:46Starting over sounds good.
02:52Well, he loves his fruit, so I thought banana bread would do the trick.
02:56Oh, Maz, that's very kind of you.
02:59Oh, that's okay.
03:00Have you had any luck?
03:02Well, there's plenty of tips on how to get a toddler to eat, but not much in regards to Cohen's age.
03:07Oh.
03:08Well, don't worry.
03:09We will sort it out.
03:10Okay?
03:12Hey.
03:13Sorry to drop by unannounced.
03:15No, don't be silly.
03:16Come on, here.
03:17Sit down.
03:18You're just in time prior to an NT.
03:19Oh, great.
03:20So, I heard Cohen's had a rough couple of days.
03:23So, I thought I'd check in on him.
03:25Well, we could use all the help we can get.
03:27So, what do you think we're dealing with?
03:29I think he's had one blow too many.
03:32The prison sent back the letters he'd written his mum, and so I had to tell him what was going on.
03:36Yeah, Harper filled me in.
03:38She's on her way over, actually.
03:39Oh.
03:40Well, it's a lot for him to process, isn't it?
03:42A poor little thing.
03:43No wonder he's lost his appetite.
03:45I'm at a bit of a loss of what to do, actually.
03:48We'll figure it out.
03:50Okay.
03:52Sorry I'm late.
03:55It's my fault for falling for a big shot surgeon.
04:00I'm mighty glad you did.
04:02Hey, maybe you need a career change, so it's more regular hours.
04:05Running a restaurant isn't exactly 9 to 5.
04:08Okay, good news.
04:09Your sister is out and won't be back until late.
04:13Are you saying we have the plans to ourselves?
04:15That is what I'm saying.
04:16Also, what happened at work?
04:17Oh, Remy and Bree are having problems, and I caught the brunt of it.
04:21Why?
04:22What's going on?
04:23Let's talk about that another time.
04:25Why don't we make the most of having the plans to ourselves?
04:27Okay.
04:28Well, you did just work all night and all day.
04:30You sure you don't want to rest?
04:31You know, it's kind of weird.
04:32I'm actually not tired at all.
04:33That is weird.
04:35I think the bed's a good place to be right now.
04:37Mm-hmm.
04:38Oh, here he is.
04:39Hey, mate.
04:40How's it going?
04:41I'm fine.
04:42Would you like a juice?
04:43Just some water.
04:44Thanks.
04:45Oh, thanks.
04:46Sit down.
04:47I'm over here.
04:48Do you leave for my mum?
04:49No.
04:50I just wanted to check in.
04:51I have heard some news about her court case though.
05:06It's scheduled for next week.
05:08Hope I'm going to try one of these.
05:10Do you want one?
05:11How about some banana bread?
05:15Oh yeah, no Marilyn cooked this especially for you.
05:18Aren't you lucky?
05:19Look at that.
05:20There you go.
05:26Maybe later.
05:28You know, if you eat something, it might make you feel better.
05:31You can stop pretending to care.
05:33Mate, I'm not pretending.
05:34If it wasn't for you, me and my mum would still be together.
05:39I'm sorry.
05:40It's okay.
05:41I'll go.
05:43Harper should be here soon.
05:44Okay, thank you.
05:45I'll walk you out.
05:47Thanks, David.
05:50I thought we agreed to move on.
05:58I'm just saying, if your car hadn't have broken down that day, we might never have met.
06:02Well, here's to dodgy fan valves, then.
06:04Worst case, I'll come and get him myself, okay?
06:06More about this citizen's arrest.
06:08Never mind.
06:09I don't think you'll agree.
06:10Well, now I'm really intrigued.
06:12This is cute.
06:14Harper, what?
06:15Explains why you're ignoring your phone.
06:17Oh, I didn't realise you had a message.
06:19Well, maybe you need to pay more attention to your actual responsibilities.
06:22You want to explain what this is about?
06:24Well, that depends.
06:25Are you sober enough to look after our son or two busy dating randoms to care?
06:31Harper.
06:33Look, I'm so sorry.
06:34I need a sore one second.
06:40Harper, wait.
06:41What was that about?
06:42How long have you two been dating?
06:44She never just asked me out.
06:45It was barely a date.
06:46Gee, she was quick to jump in there.
06:48What are you talking?
06:49You know what, actually?
06:50Doesn't matter.
06:51I'm sorry I'm a Shakur, but I'm here now.
06:54How can I help?
06:55You need to pick up Archie from Irene's house.
06:57Daniel was looking after him, but she's got to go to work.
06:59Mrs. Receive.
07:02I see she found you then.
07:06Hey, you mind?
07:08Sure.
07:09Hey, so Anna had to leave, and he sent me up to explain he's had a family emergency.
07:31Yeah, I got that part.
07:33He needs to pick up his son.
07:34Who I didn't know existed until two minutes ago.
07:37Yeah, yeah, it's complicated.
07:41He's actually a really good guy.
07:43He's my housemate.
07:45Does he always send you to do his dirty work for him?
07:48Well, like I said, this one was an emergency.
07:51Sounded more like a babysitting issue than an actual crisis.
07:55Okay, Tana also asked me to tell you that he's very, very sorry.
08:00Hmm.
08:01But not sorry enough to come tell me himself, eh?
08:07Dad, hi.
08:08Hey Sarge.
08:09You here to see Joe?
08:10No, just a happy coincidence.
08:12I'll leave you both to it.
08:13Is that as awkward as it felt?
08:17It's been one of those days.
08:19Come on, let's have a drink and you can tell me all about it.
08:28This better be important.
08:30Oh.
08:31Hey, is this a bad time?
08:32Uh, you could say that, but sure, come on in.
08:36Here, you all right?
08:37Yeah, here.
08:38Okay.
08:40Tana, what are you doing out here?
08:42I was hoping to talk to some Mac, if that's all right.
08:45Uh, well, you're here now, so.
08:48And I think I'm overdue for a cuddle with this guy.
08:51Yeah.
08:52Are you sure?
08:53Yeah, yeah, yeah.
08:54Hey, buddy.
08:55I think we've got a bit to catch up on, don't we?
09:03Politics and share market and all that fun stuff, hey?
09:07I think you just made Levi's day.
09:12Come on in.
09:13I was expecting you earlier.
09:14Oh, sorry.
09:15I had some babysitting issues, but Archie's with his dad now.
09:18Oh, Tana's such a good dad.
09:19I'm glad you got that support.
09:21I hear you don't have an appetite.
09:25Yeah, sorry.
09:27You don't have to apologise, mate.
09:29It's not your fault.
09:32I know everybody's worried about me.
09:34Is that why you're here?
09:36Partly, but I also wanted to give you an update.
09:39I've decided to go to Queen BN tomorrow.
09:42Oh, have the police there been in touch?
09:44Uh, no, nothing like that.
09:45I want to knock on some doors and talk to people
09:47that might have known your nana.
09:49Oh, that's a good idea.
09:50Haven't the police done that already?
09:52They have limited resources, and you'd be surprised
09:55what a personal approach can achieve.
09:57Papa's right, darling.
09:59Can't give up hope.
10:02I'd like to ask you some questions, if that's okay.
10:05Might help me narrow down the search.
10:07What sort of questions?
10:08Uh, like, do you remember any of your nana's friends?
10:13Did she go out anywhere?
10:14Like, the local club or church or anything like that?
10:18Can I ask you something first?
10:20Yeah, of course.
10:21Is it really true?
10:23Did my mum say she doesn't want to see me anymore?
10:27Uh, when I visited her, she did say that to me, yeah.
10:37Can I go to my room?
10:42Honey, are you sure you don't want to answer Harper's questions?
10:46Because, you know, she's just trying to help you.
10:48I don't feel well.
10:50Okay.
10:51You go upstairs.
10:52I'll check on you in a minute.
10:53All right?
10:54Here we go.
10:57I was so caught up with Harper, I didn't get a chance to go back and explain in person.
11:05Okay, I'm just blown away that you went on an actual date.
11:09Yeah, the worst first date in history.
11:11Only because your ex turned up?
11:13Okay, tell me, tell me.
11:15Who is this mystery woman?
11:17I'm not sure if you know her.
11:18Her name's Jo Langham.
11:20My cardiothoracic nurse, Jo.
11:22Wait, the cop's daughter?
11:23Yeah, that's the one.
11:26Any dating advice for your daddy?
11:29Say nothing.
11:31Good move.
11:32Okay, well, as far as first dates go, at least it wasn't boring.
11:35Then I'm sure she'll understand.
11:37Well, that's if she ever talks to me again.
11:39I'm not even sure she knew I had a kid and I didn't get a chance to tell her.
11:43I wasn't even looking for this.
11:45I didn't know I wanted it until I was there.
11:47Well, I think if this is something that you want, then you should go for it.
11:51Things are different now.
11:52I've got Archie to think about.
11:53Well, single parents date all the time.
11:55I don't want to hurt Harper again.
11:58And Jo's probably not even interested now.
12:00I think if you like her, then you should try again.
12:04I could give you her number.
12:05Oh, it's Harper.
12:10I need to take this.
12:12Hey, you're going to make one hell of a day.
12:16Hey, how...
12:19I met Mech and Levo, that's why.
12:21Poor guy.
12:23He is right though.
12:25You are a natural.
12:28You think so?
12:29Mm-hmm.
12:30I do think so.
12:31Do you think so, baby?
12:33You do, aren't you?
12:37Hi, baby.
12:38I think he likes you.
12:40He likes you too.
12:41You like Uncle Levi, don't you?
12:50Why him?
12:51Out of all the people?
12:52I like him.
12:53Then you're the one that said I should start talking to people my own age.
12:56I...
12:57I meant make friends, not get yourself a boyfriend.
13:00Especially someone like him.
13:02So he helped one of your officers sue him?
13:06It's not just that.
13:08What you've just told me, it sounds like he comes with...
13:12Baggage.
13:14Don't we all?
13:17Maybe the fact that it didn't go so well, maybe that's a sign.
13:21Oh, what? So I should just stop dating altogether?
13:24Look, I want to be happy and normal, just like everyone else, and you're fine with lazy dating Theo.
13:30Maybe it's just not the right time to overcomplicate things.
13:36You're still dealing with the accident.
13:39Is that why you're not seeing anyone?
13:42Too complicated?
13:43Listen, I've got to go up and hop into the station.
13:50It's your day off.
13:51Everyone's rallying around this kid.
13:53The least I can do is make sure I didn't miss anything.
13:56I hope there's some good news.
13:58Don't worry.
13:59Plenty more fish in the sea when the time is right.
14:02You and me don't need nobody else.
14:11I don't think he touched a thing.
14:13Well, he tried all his favourites.
14:14Yeah, maybe it's us.
14:15Maybe we're putting too much pressure on him.
14:18If your dad was here, he would say he'll eat when he's ready.
14:21Well, yes, Dad would say that, but I don't want to take any chances with Cohen's mental health.
14:25Well, do you think he needs to see a professional?
14:27Well, yeah, I'll be thinking about it after everything he's been through.
14:30I was trying to be so brave.
14:32Yeah, I'll make some calls in the morning.
14:37Oh, hey!
14:38You were meant to be reading.
14:40I couldn't concentrate.
14:42You okay?
14:43You look kind of pale, don't you reckon?
14:45Yeah.
14:46And you're warm.
14:47Maybe he's coming down with something.
14:50Don't worry, we'll look after you.
14:51Come and sit down.
14:52Come on.
14:56Are you sure you don't want to sit down for a minute?
14:58Yeah, I could put the kettle on.
14:59Oh, thank you.
15:00I've got to get home.
15:01I've got a big day tomorrow, so I've got to get ready.
15:03Yeah, about that.
15:04I really think you should leave Archie with me.
15:06Well, I don't.
15:07Seriously?
15:08You want to take him on a work trip?
15:10I would rather take Archie to Queanbeyan
15:12than have him here with you and whoever you're seeing at the moment.
15:15We agree.
15:16You have your life, I have mine.
15:18Yeah, you can hook up with whoever you like.
15:20I just think our son's a little young to be dating.
15:25Thanks.
15:26Yes.
15:27Bye.
15:31I'm going to take off too so I can say goodbye to my son.
15:33Mm-hmm.
15:35Sorry for the chaos, but thank you.
15:37Yeah.
15:38Any time.
15:42Ugh.
15:45Well, clearly Harper's jealous.
15:47Oh, man.
15:49It is a tricky situation.
15:50Oh, yeah.
15:52I just hope it hasn't turned you off parenthood.
15:56Please.
15:57Archie couldn't get enough of me today.
15:58Oh, really?
15:59Are you sure it's not the other way around there?
16:04I'm really looking forward to it being our turn.
16:07Yeah.
16:09Me too.
16:10Mm-hmm.
16:11Hey.
16:12Hey.
16:13Where's your little fella?
16:14With his mum.
16:15Right.
16:16How is Harper?
16:17Stubborn.
16:18She's taken Archie on a work trip to Queanbyan instead of leaping home with me.
16:20Oh.
16:21So you really are in the bad books.
16:22Me going on a date took her by surprise.
16:23Took both of us by surprise, actually.
16:25Did you know she was going to be here?
16:26I invited her.
16:27Good luck.
16:28Glad you came.
16:29Gotta be honest.
16:30Did not expect to hear from you so soon.
16:32I figured I'd do a conversation.
16:33I'm sorry.
16:34I'm sorry.
16:35I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
16:36You're sorry, Mark.
16:37You're sorry.
16:38I'm sorry, Mark.
16:39I was sorry, Mark.
16:40I'm sorry, Mark.
16:41I'm sorry, Mark.
16:42You're sorry.
16:43I am sorry, Mark.
16:45I'm sorry.
16:46I'm sorry.
16:47I am sorry.
16:49I'm sorry.
16:50I'm sorry.
16:51I didn't come away.
16:52I'm sorry.
16:53I'm sorry.
16:55Yeah.
16:55I'm sorry how things turned out.
16:57Not the greatest first date in history, but at least it was interesting.
17:01I appreciate that.
17:04Look, I know things are complicated with you right now, but it doesn't bother me.
17:08They're too complicated, really.
17:12Oh.
17:14So, we're not here to plan our next date then?
17:20I really wanted to get to know you.
17:21But the reality is, I just need to be a dead right now.
17:27Sure.
17:29It's probably for the best.
17:31I have a lot going on too.
17:32Not a baby, but maybe it's just not the right time for either of us.
17:39But I'll still see you around, hopefully.
17:42Yeah.
17:43I like that.
17:44Okay.
17:46See ya.
17:51Well, a good night's sleep will do us all the world good, I think.
18:01Mm.
18:02Cool.
18:03That's how if he wakes up thirsty?
18:05Oh, great.
18:06Thanks, Miss.
18:07Oh, dear.
18:09He's so hot.
18:10Yeah, I'm gonna give the prowess in while I have a chance to kick him and I'll stay with him.
18:14Well, he looks peaceful.
18:16Well, yeah, at least he's getting some rest.
18:19You sure you don't want me to stay out?
18:21No, no, no, it's fine.
18:22You go on.
18:23Okay.
18:23I'll just sing out if you need blood.
18:25No, no, darling.
18:25No.
18:30It's okay.
18:30It's all right.
18:32Mom.
18:33It's all right, darling.
18:34You're having a night.
18:35Mom.
18:35Mom.
18:35It's okay.
18:41I've got nothing to worry about.
18:43It's just a bad dream.
18:45You're safe.
18:47You're all right, aren't you?
18:49Close your eyes, darling.
18:50Just get some sleep.
18:53It's the way.
18:56It's the way.
19:05Once I flew as bold as I did.
19:10Told you to be careful.
19:13I'm not too scared.
19:13Come on back to bed.
19:17What's wrong?
19:20I know.
19:31It's too soon.
19:31And I should have waited like we planned, but I just thought, why not now?
19:47I'm sorry.
19:48No.
19:51We have done everything right.
19:54Why is this not happening?
19:55Nick, this is the part where you tell me I'm overreacting.
20:19Roo, what's going on?
20:21Look, his temperature spiked about an hour ago.
20:23I'm taking him to the hospital.
20:25What, does he need more medicine?
20:27No.
20:27No, it's not making any difference anyway.
20:29I've tried everything, you know?
20:30Fluids, wet, floss, nothing's helping.
20:33I'm really sorry about all this.
20:36Honey, you don't have to be sorry, okay?
20:40And everything's going to be all right.
20:42I promise.
20:43Do you think there's any chance real forgiving?
20:56I don't know.
20:57I think she's just going to get on with her life.
20:59Leave Remy in the dust.
21:01If you love her, mate, get off your backside and fight for her, would you?
21:03You're not listening.
21:04Nothing I do is going to make this right.
21:05How do you know if all you're doing is nothing?
21:08What is it?
21:09Remy wants to talk.
21:10What are you going to do?
21:11Nothing.
21:12You're not even going to hear him out?
21:13Yeah, but what could he possibly have to say that I haven't already heard?
21:16Well, I think there's only one way to find out.
21:18I know that I've let you down badly.
21:20Get to the point.
21:21I want to fix this, if you'll let me.
