Short filmTranscript
00:00I slept with Avalon.
00:10Bree, it was a mistake. A terrible one.
00:12And I hate myself for it. I hate myself for hurting you, Bree.
00:14I need you to leave.
00:15No, Bree, please just hear me out.
00:16Why would you do this?
00:17I don't know.
00:18How is that all you have to say for yourself?
00:21Ever since I've known the guy, he has not loved anyone like he loves Bree.
00:24I mean, I just can't wrap my head around him throwing all that away, you know?
00:27I think she's just gonna get on with her life.
00:29Leave Remy in the dust.
00:31If you love her, mate, get off your backside and fight for her, would you?
00:33You're not listening.
00:34Nothing I do is gonna make this right.
00:36How do you know if all you're doing is nothing?
00:38I know that I've let you down badly.
00:40Get to the point.
00:41I want to fix this, if you'll let me.
00:43Looks like we're dealing with a pretty nasty case of tonsillitis.
00:46Has he been asking for his mum again?
00:48No, not since last night.
00:49It means that you're enough for him.
00:51I'm proud of you, love. You're doing a great job.
00:53That means a lot.
00:54Because I was thinking that I might like to talk to the department about adopting him.
00:59Seriously, good workout there today, guys.
01:05Let's keep up the practice, though.
01:11Looks like thirsty work.
01:12I have no idea.
01:13Well, tired or not, you're a natural at this whole teaching thing.
01:17Just hope the students think so, too.
01:19Please, they adore you.
01:21Tough for them, though, because I get tips.
01:23Thank you, by the way.
01:26For?
01:27Well, I know that you're only doing this for me.
01:30Don't flatter yourself. I'm doing this for Marley.
01:32Yeah, I know, but I'm sure you'd prefer to be doing your actual job back at the garage.
01:36Getting to surf all day is pretty sweet.
01:39Plus, Justin was so cool with me taking extra time at the garage.
01:42Stop downplaying what you're doing for me. You're a lifesaver.
01:46Actually, I'm a surf instructor.
01:48Okay, seriously.
01:49I can't afford to lose this job, and I'm only hanging on to it because of you.
01:53Babe, I wouldn't stress too much.
01:55If you're in real trouble, I'm sure your dad would be able to help.
02:00We're not talking about him.
02:04Right. Sorry.
02:07See you up there.
02:11Ah, it's you.
02:13I thought Remy might be out here.
02:15Ah, sorry to disappoint.
02:17Any idea where he is? I'm going to check on him.
02:19Best friend of duty, son.
02:21Well, you can take the afternoon off because Remy is with Bree.
02:25What?
02:27How did that happen?
02:29Let's face it, your boy Sonny's a love guru.
02:31I basically just told him to get on flight for her.
02:34Okay, so you set him up for disappointment.
02:37Oh, I have a bit of faith.
02:38How are you so sure that they can work through this?
02:40Because they have to.
02:41Okay, when you put it like that, I mean...
02:43Look, they obviously love each other.
02:45I just know that if they try, they can work it out.
02:47This isn't some argument they had, Sonny.
02:50He cheated on her.
02:54They just, they have to work it out, all right?
02:56You should have seen him earlier. He's a mess.
02:57Yeah, but Sonny...
03:00It's not up to him.
03:06So to be clear, you actually have nothing to say.
03:09Well, I told you I want to make this right.
03:11But you don't know how.
03:12No, I don't know how to share with you.
03:13Okay, it's just a waste of time.
03:14I guess it's just a waste of time.
03:15I agree. Please wait.
03:16I meant surely it must be part of you that wants to fix this too,
03:19otherwise you wouldn't have answered my text.
03:20No, I only agreed to meet with you,
03:21because I thought that you would finally be honest with me.
03:23I have been honest.
03:24I want the real reason you ended up in another woman's bed. Help me to understand how that happened.
03:30I don't know how it happened. Brie, I don't even understand it myself.
03:33You better figure it out. Explain it to me or leave.
03:36Oh, David!
03:37Um, no, no, I'm still in. I just didn't expect it to happen that quickly, that's all.
03:50Yeah.
03:51Okay, well, I appreciate everything you've done.
03:54Thanks.
03:56Sorry about that.
03:57Oh, it's okay. I should have waited till you were off the phone.
04:00Is Ru here? I've just come from court.
04:03You're going to mum? Was she sentenced?
04:05I'd like to speak to Ru first.
04:07Yeah, of course. Poor Cohen. It's not his day.
04:10What do you mean?
04:11He's in hospital.
04:13Why? Is he hurt?
04:15No, he's got tonsillitis, poor thing.
04:17Ru's there with him and he's on antibiotics. It's going to be fine.
04:21Falling down again. Falling down again.
04:35Okay, spit it out. I know you want to say something to me about wanting to adopt Cohen.
04:45Is there any point in giving you my two bobs worth?
04:48Yeah, Dad, you need to be involved. I want you on board.
04:51I love how much you care and all that, but this is a bit of a stretch.
04:56I don't see it that way.
04:58No, of course you don't. You always let your heart rule your head.
05:01Please don't say that.
05:02Ru, you're way ahead of yourself. You don't even know that this is what the boy wants.
05:07So you don't think you'd want a stable home and someone who's there to care for him?
05:10Right now, I reckon all that boy wants is his mum.
05:13But, Dad, that's the point. I mean, it's not an option for him. His mum doesn't want him.
05:17Yeah, I'm sorry to hear that, but that's all the more reason why we should tread carefully here.
05:23Just put yourself in his shoes for five minutes. That's all I'm asking.
05:27Ru.
05:28Hey.
05:29Hey.
05:30How's he doing?
05:31Oh, he's on the mend, thanks.
05:32There you go. Us all are scared.
05:33Yeah, I can imagine.
05:34Look, I've been so distracted by Cohen, I forgot to ask about the sentencing.
05:37Samantha got 12 months, so even if she does have a change of heart...
05:41Yeah, it'll be 12 months before she can be with him.
05:43So what happens to him?
05:44Well, no doubt the department will start looking for longer-term solutions.
05:48And they'll take him out of emergency care.
05:51And into permanent placement, exactly.
05:53Thanks for letting us know. Look, he's just, he's through there.
05:56Okay, thanks.
05:59Um, let me know if Cohen wakes up.
06:01Where are you going?
06:02I am going to take your advice.
06:13Oh, hi, Cash.
06:15Hey.
06:16Hey.
06:17Do you have a second for a quick chat?
06:19Yeah, okay.
06:20Okay, um...
06:22Look, I just wanted to know what it was like for you when Gary told you you were going to live with him.
06:26Oh.
06:27I mean, were you relieved or were you frightened?
06:29I mean, what was the...
06:30Sorry, I have a lot of questions.
06:34Yeah, why don't you come on in?
06:36You sure?
06:37Yeah, yeah, I've got time for a cover.
06:38Come on.
06:39Okay, thank you.
06:40I mean, she obviously gave you something that I didn't.
06:42No, it's not like that.
06:44Okay?
06:45This is not on you or us.
06:46It's...
06:47Okay, then it's got to be about her.
06:49What made Avalon so special?
06:50It's not about her, Rita.
06:51It's not about her.
06:52Okay?
06:53I think this is more about me.
06:56Okay, can you explain?
06:59Look, don't get me wrong.
07:02The whole thing with Kirby and the album, I was happy to do it.
07:07But at the end of the day, I don't think it's what I really wanted.
07:11And Avalon picked up on that.
07:12I don't understand.
07:13Look, you know how I've been feeling since the band fell apart.
07:17I felt like I was failing and nothing took that away.
07:20What, but sleeping with Avalon did?
07:23No.
07:24No, she offered me the chance to do what I love.
07:27To play again.
07:29You know, I felt good for the first time in ages.
07:33Okay.
07:34Ah, sorry, let me...
07:35Let me get this straight.
07:37So this woman offers you a gig.
07:40She offers you drugs and she strokes your ego.
07:43And that was enough for you to throw everything away.
07:50Gee, that's ridiculous.
07:51But I think that's what happened.
07:53Were you that unhappy?
07:54Why didn't I see that?
07:55Rita, this isn't on you.
07:57I'm the one who stuffed this up.
08:01Look, I just need to know whether you can forgive me or not.
08:04Because if you can, I promise that I will spend the rest of my life making this up to you.
08:09Oh, thank you so much.
08:24My pleasure.
08:25So I'm guessing this game of 20 questions has got something to do with Cohen.
08:29Yeah, I'm thinking of adopting him.
08:32That's a big deal.
08:34Well, his mum received her sentence this morning.
08:37She got 12 months.
08:38So he needs a public loan.
08:40Yeah, he does.
08:41I hate the idea of him being moved around from place to place.
08:44He deserves better.
08:45Sure does.
08:46So listen, if any of my questions make you feel uncomfortable, please let me know, alright?
08:53I just, I'm trying to understand things from Cohen's perspective.
08:56So, can you tell me what it was like for you when Gary adopted you?
09:00Well, for starters, Gary didn't technically adopt us because it was a small country town and we didn't need to.
09:06There was no one who was going to take on Flick and me.
09:09Didn't that uncertainty worry you?
09:11No.
09:12Didn't matter if we didn't have the paperwork.
09:14Gary and his wife made a commitment to us.
09:16So you felt like a family?
09:18Yeah.
09:19Yeah, they were rock solid no matter how bad things got.
09:22That's probably what we needed.
09:24You know, if you can make Cohen feel like things are going to be alright,
09:29particularly if you can make him feel wanted,
09:32then you're going to change his life.
09:34But you need to be sure, Rue,
09:37I guess the last thing that kid needs is any more confusion.
09:40I know.
09:41Yeah.
09:42Oh, um, I'd better get back to the hospital.
09:47Thank you so much.
09:49Alright.
09:50I'll see you later.
09:51Bye.
09:52See ya.
09:53Hey.
09:54Hey.
09:55That looked intense.
09:57It was.
10:02What are you thinking?
10:03That I need to get back to work.
10:05But you haven't answered my question yet.
10:07Yeah, but that's because it's impossible.
10:08You're asking me to just forget everything.
10:10No, no, no.
10:11Forget.
10:12Forgive.
10:13Oh.
10:19I'm going to need some time, okay?
10:27Can I just ask you one thing?
10:29Yeah.
10:30Is there a part of you that still loves me?
10:33No, you can't ask me that, Remy.
10:35It's not fair.
10:36Hey, you okay?
10:37Mm-hmm.
10:38Okay.
10:39So this will be their fifth lesson, so they're going to need more of a challenge.
10:40Mm-hmm.
10:41Are you even listening to me?
10:42No, not really.
10:43No.
10:44Okay.
10:45Hi.
10:46Sorry to interrupt.
10:47Hey.
10:48Can we talk?
10:49I gotta go sit up.
10:50Thanks, Theo.
10:51Thanks, Theo.
10:52Thanks, Theo.
10:53Can you not talk to him like he's your mate?
10:54No.
10:55No.
10:56No.
10:57No.
10:58No.
10:59No.
11:00No.
11:01No.
11:02No.
11:03No.
11:04No.
11:05No.
11:06No.
11:07No.
11:08No.
11:09No.
11:10No.
11:11No.
11:12No.
11:13No.
11:14No.
11:15No.
11:16Doesn't that mean you even talk to him like he's your mate?
11:19Listen, there's something I'm going to tell you now.
11:21No, there isn't.
11:22Because we're not a part of each other's lives.
11:23What do you not understand about that, dad?
11:25I'm standing right here, Lacey.
11:27You can't pretend that I don't exist.
11:30Whatcha mean?
11:32Lacey.
11:34Lacey, please.
11:37Wow.
11:39That is massive.
11:41Oh, I hope it works out for Rowan Coen.
11:44Yes.
11:45This is a good thing, right?
11:48Oh, it's definitely a good thing.
11:50Cohen will be lucky to have Rue.
11:52So why do you seem so worried?
11:55I'm not worried.
11:56I'm just, I'm thinking.
11:58About?
12:01Sometimes I'm just reminded how lucky Flicka High were.
12:06Mostly just wondering if Cohen will be saying the same thing about Rue one day.
12:15All right.
12:20Come on.
12:21Are you sure?
12:22Yeah, that's where he needs her.
12:27Oh, how is he?
12:29He's sound asleep.
12:31There's no change, so there's no need to worry.
12:33Oh, good. Thanks for staying with him.
12:34That's okay.
12:35I just needed to stretch my legs.
12:37Come for a walk.
12:39Are you going to tell me where you raced off to?
12:41Well, you told me to put myself in Cohen's shoes,
12:45and so I did the next best thing, and I went and saw Cash.
12:49Oh, of course you did.
12:50Because he went through something similar when he was a kid.
12:53I should have known you'd be doing your homework.
12:56Yeah, we had a really good chat.
12:57He was very honest with me,
12:58and it just made my mind up that this is something I really want to do.
13:04What is it?
13:06I just wish you'd think this through.
13:08You can't keep every kid that comes through our door.
13:11Yeah, I know that, Dad.
13:12Rue, last time I looked,
13:14you signed on as an emergency carer,
13:16not as the boy's mum.
13:17Can I ask why you're so against me
13:19wanting to give Cohen a chance at a better life?
13:22I'm not against anything, Rue,
13:24but there are technicalities.
13:26There's red tape.
13:27There's hoops to jump through.
13:28You don't even know they'll agree to this.
13:29Well, all I can do is ask.
13:32I just don't want you to get your hopes up in the meantime.
13:35Dad, if things don't work out,
13:36I will do my very best to handle it.
13:39OK, but you have to trust me.
13:42I'm your father, Rue.
13:43It's my job to worry.
13:46And I don't want to see you get your heart broken again.
13:49Thea.
14:00Thea.
14:06Hey.
14:07Take it the chat with Lacey didn't go too well.
14:10It didn't go at all.
14:12To be honest, I'm not surprised.
14:14She can be pretty...
14:15Stubborn.
14:16I was going to say strong?
14:19Her mum was like that.
14:21They said I'm trying to tell her something important,
14:23but she won't let me get past hello.
14:25Yeah, well, I can't be your middleman,
14:26if that's what you're asking.
14:27I've never asked you to do that.
14:32It's just I've got to deliver some tough news,
14:34and I'm pretty sure she's going to need someone
14:36to talk to afterwards.
14:39Yeah, of course.
14:40No, well, I'm not going anywhere.
14:41Sorry.
14:48Looking good.
14:49No more fever.
14:49Nice going, Colin.
14:50How'd you manage that?
14:52I haven't really done anything.
14:53I kind of just slipped it off.
14:55Well, keep up the good work,
14:56and you'll be out of here in no time.
14:58Hey, mate.
14:59Mr Stewart,
15:00could I see the photo of that shroud again?
15:02I think we can go one better than that.
15:04I found this in the gift shop.
15:06I thought you might like it.
15:07It's got puzzles and stuff.
15:09But can I still see the fishing room?
15:14Yeah.
15:15Yeah, of course you can.
15:17Go have your life.
15:19I'll be back in a tick.
15:20Kate.
15:28He's a great kid.
15:29Yeah, he really is.
15:31That's why I want to help him.
15:34I'm sorry, Ruit.
15:35It just worries me.
15:36You know, he was living in a tent when he came to us.
15:39His mum's in jail.
15:40She doesn't want to have anything to do with him.
15:42Do you know what he's worried about?
15:44The fact that she might be lonely in there.
15:47That's just not fair.
15:48It's not fair, Dad.
15:49He should be making friends and playing footy
15:51and learning how to swim.
15:52We could help him have that.
15:55Hang on a minute.
15:56You know what?
15:57I'm doing it, Dad.
15:58I'm doing it.
15:59How often do you get to give someone a second chance?
16:10Sorry, man.
16:10I didn't realise all that tortured artist stuff
16:12was going on with you.
16:14That's to justify what I did.
16:16I bet the words were coming out of my mouth
16:17even though I knew they were stupid.
16:19It's not over yet.
16:21All right?
16:21I think it's a great sign that Bree heard you out.
16:26What?
16:26She still won't come around.
16:28And if not, we'll work through this.
16:31I blew it.
16:32All right?
16:33End of story.
16:37There's anything I can do.
16:39There's anything anyone can do.
16:41So as I said,
16:43they done for good?
16:45All I know is
16:46I've never seen him like this.
16:48I better tag back in.
16:49Yeah.
16:49Yeah.
16:50Hey, everyone.
17:00We'll leave you to it.
17:10What are you doing here?
17:12You know, you asked me before
17:13if I still loved you.
17:15Fuck.
17:16Of course I do, Remy.
17:17That's why this hurts so much.
17:20And I need to work through that.
17:23Yeah, I don't know how long it's going to take,
17:26so you're going to need to give me some time.
17:29Take as much time as you need.
17:30I'll be right here.
17:42So there are three surf lessons to teach tomorrow morning?
17:45I don't know.
17:46You're the one reading the schedule.
17:48Whoa, okay.
17:49Since when were we in a fight?
17:51Since I saw you talking to my dad behind my back.
17:53No, no, no, no, no.
17:54Leave me alone.
17:54He was talking to me, okay?
17:56I didn't go out of my way to have a conversation with him.
18:04What are you doing with that?
18:06It's what I've been trying to tell you.
18:08No, no, that's my suitcase.
18:10I know.
18:10I sold the house.
18:15I accepted an offer this morning.
18:21She's going to write off the past like it never happened.
18:26No, I'm not.
18:28I collected some more things I thought you might want.
18:32I had no idea Remy was in such a bad place.
18:48Yeah, I kind of did.
18:50We talked about it.
18:53Always been feeling lost.
18:56You knew that.
18:57Feeling okay now though, right?
18:59Honestly, no.
19:02Not really.
19:03Do I need to be worried about that?
19:06I'm not going to blow up our relationship.
19:09But I do kind of feel like I'm in the same boat,
19:12just drifting now that Lyrics done.
19:16You're not going to be drifting forever.
19:18What's next for Eden Fowler?
19:20That is the problem.
19:22I still have no idea.
19:32Lacey Langham.
19:35I'm so used to you being a miller.
19:38Hmm.
19:41You really did everything you could to distance yourself from him, didn't you?
19:44Yeah.
19:47Don't start.
19:48I'm not, I promise.
19:51Hey, I'm here for you.
19:55Team Lacey.
19:56It's just the house.
20:01It's filled with reminders of mum.
20:04I just honestly cannot believe that dad would sell it.
20:09Actually, no.
20:10I can't believe that he would sell it.
20:13I'm sorry.
20:15Yeah.
20:16I've got nothing to be sorry about.
20:17Is that being nice to him?
20:23Did I mention I was Team Lacey?
20:26Yeah, yeah.
20:29Alright, let's see what's worth keeping in here.
20:31Yeah.
20:47I just miss her so much.
21:09All these people, it means so much to me.
21:12And soon I'm not going to know who they are.
21:14Sorry to interrupt.
21:15You forgot these.
21:16I didn't flip and begin anything.
21:18Look, I get that you didn't want people to know before it was confirmed,
21:21but this isn't something you're going to be able to keep secret.
21:23And how is Leah going to be able to support you at work
21:25if she's kept in the dark?
21:26John, I am not ready.
21:29This is about that, mate.
21:30The one you're worried about.
21:31Tyrene, isn't it?
