00:00You and we belong together
00:03You and I forever and ever
00:08No matter where you are
00:12You're my guiding star
00:16And from the very first moment I saw you
00:20I never felt such emotion
00:24I'm walking on it
00:29Just to know you were there
00:33Hold me in your arms
00:37Don't let me go
00:39I want to stay forever
00:43Close to each day
00:46Home and away
00:48I do need to stress this is a preliminary result
00:52I'll refer you to a neurologist and they will do more tests
00:55Oh for God's sake just spit it out
00:57It indicated a potential diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease
01:01She's been able to fast track my appointment with the neurologist
01:05It's tomorrow
01:06I do kind of feel like I'm drifting now that Lyric's done
01:09You're not going to be drifting forever
01:11What's next for Eden Fowler?
01:13That is the problem
01:14I still have no idea
01:16Listen there's something I need to tell you
01:18No there isn't
01:19Because we're not a part of each other's lives
01:20What do you not understand about that dad?
01:23What are you doing with that?
01:25I sold the house
01:26I accepted an offer this morning
01:27I collected some things
01:30I thought you might want
01:31I just said so much
01:35I just said so much
01:37And I cannot be wondering
01:41If you're the one I want
01:45Nice
01:48Looks like someone had a hard day
01:54Go and ask me if he wants to join us
02:00David, hi
02:06You okay?
02:09Yeah just
02:10Something with Lacey I didn't handle very well
02:13Happens to the best of us
02:15Can't manage to throw your nephew under the bus while I was at it
02:21How Theo can handle himself
02:23Have you Eden?
02:26Justin and I thought maybe you want to join us
02:29No I haven't
02:32Might make you feel better
02:33Righter
02:36Thanks
02:37Yeah
02:40Thank you
02:43Sorry
02:44I was just a shock to realise that this was all I had left from our old home
02:48Yeah of course it was
02:50I mean look at this junk
02:52It belongs in the bin
02:53See what I mean?
02:58Well
02:58I reckon this guy's got a few good stories to tell
03:01Oh Mr. Beanie
03:03I used to sleep with him every night
03:05Oh should I be worried?
03:08Oh
03:08My nan needed this for me when I was about 8 or 9
03:12I used to wear it everywhere
03:14Even in the summer
03:15I had no idea you were such a softie
03:17I'm not
03:18I'm not
03:19I'm just like
03:20Yeah shut up
03:21Stop
03:22I don't care I like it
03:24Oh man
03:28My SRC badge
03:34Woah woah woah woah
03:36Wait a minute
03:37You were the student council president as well
03:41Are you for real?
03:42Yep
03:42Did the River Boys know about your early interest in democracy and politics?
03:48Mmm
03:48Mum was so proud of me
03:51Don't tell me your grandma needed these ones too
03:58Those are my lucky netball socks
04:01What?
04:05Every word in that sentence just literally blew my mind
04:08Okay well if you keep talking it's just gonna be me and Mr. Beanie tonight
04:11Alone
04:12Okay what are we gonna eat?
04:16Should we go out?
04:18Order in?
04:18I reckon we should order in so we can keep talking
04:20Okay
04:22Pizza it is
04:24Pepperoni or Supreme?
04:25Maybe if you're feeling lost I reckon we should talk about it
04:27Look it's nothing that you need to worry about
04:30It's not your problem
04:30And like I said I'm not gonna destroy a soapbox
04:32That's really good to know but I still want to help you
04:35Babe I
04:37I don't think that you can help I mean
04:42Lyric was such a huge part of my life and now it's
04:48It's gone
04:50I mean I've been feeling just as terrible as Remy
04:55Not that it's a competition
04:56I
04:56I'm sorry that you're feeling like that
05:00But what are we gonna do to fix it?
05:02I
05:03Could you
05:06And shout
05:08Hey what's the matter?
05:16Nothing
05:17It's just Joe and I were obsessed with the ballet when we were kids
05:21Did lessons twice a week
05:23Performed every other weekend
05:24When I was 11
05:28I asked for pointe shoes for my birthday
05:30I was like desperate to be on pointe before Joe
05:33I bet
05:34I heard my mum and dad talking and dad said that I wasn't ready
05:39But the night before my birthday
05:42I went into his wardrobe
05:44And found these
05:46Yeah mum she must have talked him around
05:50Yeah the next afternoon I was on point and Joe wasn't
05:54She must have loved that
05:56She was actually really happy for me
05:59Yeah so you two used to be close
06:02We were really close
06:03Until we weren't
06:06Anyways
06:09I don't know why dad hung on to these or any junk
06:13Well
06:16If they mean something to you
06:20Then they probably mean something to him as well
06:22I'll touch footy team as a distraction
06:37Have you ever thought about taking up a sport?
06:38Have you met me?
06:39Okay
06:40Or have I leaning into one of your hobbies?
06:41Yeah
06:42I did that
06:43I started a band with my mate
06:44All right
06:45It's called Lyric
06:46All right
06:46All right
06:47Okay I'm trying to help fill the void
06:49Yeah I know
06:50I know
06:50But it's not something you can just click your fingers and fix
06:53Yeah
06:54So maybe just give it a rest yeah
06:57Okay
06:57Bye
06:59Yeah
06:59Oh
07:02Cash
07:02Cash
07:03I don't suppose you've seen Lacey anywhere?
07:05No maybe you could ask Theo
07:06Yes Theo
07:07Hi
07:08Where is Lacey?
07:09She's supposed to be working
07:10Yeah I know I'm here to cover
07:11Why?
07:12Is she sick?
07:12She's just got some stuff going on
07:14That's all
07:15All right fine
07:16But she's supposed to be working for Molly
07:17So whatever her excuse is
07:18It better be good
07:19Good morning
07:24Hey
07:24Hey mate
07:26How's it going?
07:27Hopefully you're feeling better than last time
07:28Nothing strong coffee won't fix
07:30Stop
07:31Everything okay?
07:39Yeah I'll have to give back to you on that
07:41Can you make that coffee to go?
07:44Sure
07:44Thanks
07:45I don't know what that's about
07:47I don't know
07:49I've got to go
07:50Got a lot on at the garage
07:51I don't have a feeling
07:52I am under the pump
07:53Isn't Irene due back today?
07:54Any minute
07:55Love ya
07:56Bye
07:56You want me to move you a cup of tea or what?
08:23Ethan Bianca
08:24Aidan and Belle
08:28Oh
08:30Tash and Robbie
08:32Leah
08:47All these people
08:56It means so much to me
08:58And soon I'm not going to know who they are
09:03Oh Ray
09:04Don't
09:05You heard what the neurologist said
09:09John I've got Alzheimer's
09:13And it's going to take everything
09:18It won't take me
09:26Les
09:39Hey
09:42I was surprised to get your message
09:44Is everything alright?
09:45Yeah I mean
09:47Apart from having the world's most triggering suitcase dumped on me yesterday
09:51Life's great
09:53Yeah I'm really sorry about the way I handled that
09:55Forget it
09:55No no I mean it
09:57It's just
09:57Been really hard time selling the house
10:03It's actually what I wanted to talk to you about
10:07I just can't really believe that it's gone
10:11It was just too painful being there
10:14Partly why I took the posting here
10:18Get away from all the memories
10:20Yeah but they were good memories
10:22I know
10:22We were happy
10:25Mum was happy
10:26Yeah I know
10:28So why do you just want to forget that?
10:30I don't
10:31My suitcase isn't enough dad
10:32That house is all that we had left of her
10:34No it's not
10:38Yes it is
10:39She will always be gone in here
10:43And in here
10:46I can still see you both
11:04Sitting out on the deck
11:06You with the barbecue
11:09And I'm with her glass of rosé in hand
11:12We had a good
11:15Oui
11:16I loved watching you guys dance together
11:20Yeah
11:22I suppose I should head off to work
11:27Oh don't worry about that
11:29I don't want to leave Leah in the lurch
11:32She'll be run off her feet
11:33She'll be alright
11:34Just give yourself a day off
11:35To get your head around everything
11:37I think it's going to take a bit more than that doll
11:39I'll call Leah for you
11:40Let her know you can't come in
11:41John I'm making coffees
11:43It's not open heart surgery
11:45If you're sure
11:47Besides
11:48The doc said
11:49I should keep doing
11:50What I can do
11:51For as long as I can do it
11:53And that's advice
11:54That I intend to take
11:56Fair enough
11:57But we should also get on
11:57To some of the other things
11:58That the neurologist suggested
12:00Like finding you a good support group
12:01And breaking the news
12:03To your friends and family
12:04A chance
12:05John
12:06All right
12:07This stays between us
12:09Got it
12:09So no blabbing
12:10Look I get that you didn't want people to know
12:12Before it was confirmed
12:13But this isn't something you're going to be able to keep secret
12:16John
12:16Your kids need to know
12:18And how is Leah going to be able to support you at work
12:20If she's kept in the dark
12:21John
12:22I am not ready
12:24Not yet
12:29Uh what did you do to my sister
12:36She's all over the shop today
12:38Oh she misses playing music
12:39Well why
12:41Did Kobe steal her guitar when she skipped her
12:42No
12:43Then what's the problem
12:44She could still play
12:45Here
12:49Sorry
12:50She's in a bit of a mood
12:52Board shop issues
12:53That's funny
12:54She just said the exact same thing about you
12:56Okay babe
12:57Do not pick the scab
12:59No
12:59I just don't think it's something
13:00You should sweep under the rug
13:01Okay
13:03Maybe next time we want to catch up for a coffee
13:05Can you remind me to say no
13:06Oh no no no
13:06Come on talk to me about it
13:07Please
13:08And I promise
13:08I'm going to try and say something
13:09That actually helps
13:10I'm not just going to list things
13:12That you can do in your free time
13:13I love you
13:13But I don't think
13:14That this is going to make a difference
13:15What exactly do you miss about it?
13:21Everything
13:22I miss
13:22Making music with my mates
13:25Performing
13:26Miss fame?
13:27Recognition?
13:28Never really had much fame
13:30I don't really care about that stuff
13:32Okay
13:32So playing music was the big one
13:34Yeah
13:35You have to be in a band to do that
13:37I'm being honest
13:44It's not just the connection to mum
13:46I'm scared of losing
13:47None of the house is sold
13:49It just feels like
13:52All of our happy memories
13:53Will be lost for the two
13:54Well it mightn't be so hard
13:58If you stop pushing Joe and I away
14:00Found the point shoes
14:03To the bottom of the suitcase
14:05Yeah
14:06They were the best present
14:08You ever got me
14:09It's nice to know
14:10You still feel that way
14:11After all these years
14:13Yeah
14:13Of course they would
14:15I begged you guys for months
14:16For those shoes
14:17I remember
14:19I'll never forget
14:21The look on your face
14:22When we took you
14:23To the dance shop
14:24To choose them
14:25It's like you're in
14:27Wonderland
14:28Looking at all these
14:29Ballet shoes
14:30And colourful leotards
14:31No that wasn't me
14:32What do you mean?
14:34That was Joe
14:35You took Joe to the shop
14:36No I swear it was you
14:37No no no
14:38I got my shoes first
14:39I found them in your wardrobe
14:41What were you just saying
14:42About memories being so important?
14:44I'm sorry Lacey
14:45I got confused
14:46No this was a mistake
14:48I love that you're
14:59Really busy at work
15:00And you were here
15:00Taking selfies
15:01Oh what can I say
15:02I'm getting good
15:03At juggling my time
15:04So sorry
15:04I'm late
15:05Time got away
15:06From a slump
15:07No don't worry about it
15:08How are you?
15:09How's Finn?
15:11Uh
15:11She's
15:12She's good
15:13Why?
15:14Uh
15:14Weren't you visiting her?
15:15Oh of course I was
15:18Sorry
15:18Yes
15:19She's fine
15:20Give us a break
15:20The traffic on the way home
15:22Was a nightmare
15:22We both wasted
15:23So you went too?
15:26Yeah
15:26Yeah
15:27I had an appointment nearby
15:28And we shared the driving
15:30Right
15:30Besides all of that
15:32Are you alright?
15:33Yeah
15:33Great
15:34Well you know
15:35Apart from four hours
15:36Of native stories
15:37On the way back
15:38And in desperate need
15:39Of fresh air
15:40So I'm going to take this
15:41Oh no no no
15:42We're fine out there
15:43We need help in here
15:45I'll send someone back
15:46What was that about?
15:54I know that you want to be there for me
15:56But that doesn't mean I need babysitting 24 hours a day
15:59That's not what I'm doing
16:00Well you could have fooled me
16:02Irene will you just slow down
16:03Will you stop and just talk?
16:04I don't want to talk
16:06I just want to get on with things
16:08Please
16:09I'm only trying to help
16:10Well you're not
16:12Well try to hide and carry on like nothing's happened
16:14It's only upsetting you
16:15And it's confusing everybody else
16:17John
16:17Listen to me
16:19The day that you find out that your life is over
16:22We will do whatever you want to do
16:25But right now this is me John
16:28It's me
16:29So please will you just back off
16:33And let me deal with it
16:35Hey guys
16:36Sorry to interrupt
16:37You forgot these
16:38I didn't flip and begin anything
16:41I think she's had enough of me for one day
16:45Everything that I've ever done musically has been with Lyric
16:55And Remy had such big plans for the band
16:57So did Kirby
16:58And I was genuinely happy to go along with them
17:01All makes sense
17:02Yeah I guess
17:04Seriously considering music outside of Lyric
17:06It's scary
17:07But something that I should explore
17:09I knew you'd figure it out
17:11Yeah
17:12Maybe I could go busking again
17:14Or find another band
17:15Or you could just have your own band
17:17Or you could go solo
17:18Babe I've only written one song
17:20You've written one great song
17:21Thank you
17:23Now
17:24Can't wait for you to be my wife
17:26I can't wait to be your wife either
17:29See ya
17:32See ya
17:33Hey
17:35Where's Lace?
17:39I don't know
17:40Okay
17:41What happened?
17:42It's a long story
17:43Look um
17:44I know I asked the same thing of her yesterday
17:46But
17:46Pretty sure she could use some support right now
17:49Yep
17:49I'll go check in on her
17:51Thanks
17:51Alright see ya
17:52Hey Abby
17:54Yeah
17:54Something has come up
17:56Would you mind covering for me
17:58Just for an hour or so?
17:59I'm not carrying this off for fun
18:00I know you're working
18:01I just
18:01Lacey really needs my help
18:03Why?
18:04What's going on?
18:05It's family stuff
18:07Hey
18:14Aren't you meant to be covering at the shop?
18:16It's all good
18:17Abby's got it
18:17I just wanted to
18:18See how you're holding up
18:20Let me guess
18:21Dad tipped you off
18:23He just said you were upset
18:24What happened?
18:28It was a complete waste of time
18:29I'm never going to make that mistake again
18:32And I don't want anything to do with him or his fake memories
18:35Thanks for coming to get me
18:40It's all good
18:42Irene just doesn't seem like she's in the best shape at the moment
18:45I know right
18:45She's all over the place
18:47And what was with that weird traffic story this morning?
18:49You didn't buy that did you?
18:50Nah
18:50It's like her and John were covering up something
18:52Hey um
18:53You don't think she's drinking again do you?
18:57Doesn't feel like that this time
18:59Really?
19:00She doesn't look great
19:01It's more like she's
19:04Upset about something
19:06Whatever it is
19:07Well if it's work pressure
19:10Maybe I can take some of it off her
19:12Hey what are you doing?
19:15I thought you were as busy as a bloke flying inside
19:18Oh I've quietened down
19:19I thought I'd come and give you a hand
19:20I needed a hand
19:22I would have hollered for one
19:23Irene I'm just trying to help
19:25You're obviously super stressed about
19:26Fine you want to help
19:28You go for it alright?
19:29Irene
19:30I'm going home
19:31I'm just trying to help
20:01I'm just trying to help
20:31Here you go JP
20:39Oh looks like your day's been as much fun as mine has
20:44Okay good chat
20:47I'll uh have one of those two things savvy
20:50Really not in the mood mate
20:53Yeah
20:54I noticed
20:56This is about that mate
21:10Isn't it?
21:12The one you're worried about
21:13Yeah that'd be it
21:15My mate
21:17Ain't got a name
21:20They're not in the navy are they?
21:25Leave it will you Justin
21:26It's our ring
21:29Isn't it?
21:30She just doesn't seem like herself and when I try to talk to her about it she bites my head off
21:54All I know is Irene wants some space
21:56Unless you give me a good reason not to I'm going over there
21:59Oh
21:59Looks like you're on a trip down memory lane
22:03This is all private
22:04You come here you stick your bib in where it's not want to get out
22:07The forgetfulness, the angry outburst, the isolating herself
22:11That's what she was doing when she was drinking
22:13Irene what's wrong?
22:15I've been diagnosed with Alzheimer's
