00:00Previously on Neighbours.
00:02I was trying to help.
00:03You've got to leave the policing to the police.
00:05How is it that you know exactly where to look?
00:07Someone feeding you intel.
00:08So Byron might have found something
00:10where the forensics expert casts enough doubt
00:12to get the defendant off.
00:13Can you please give me some space?
00:15How much more space do you need?
00:16Can I go back to America, please?
00:18If Noah was to spend some time in the U.S. with her dad,
00:22how would we go supporting his studies?
00:24I give it back.
00:25JJ!
00:26JJ, don't!
00:27Is this you instead?
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
00:59Stop, stop. What's this about?
01:09It's just a drawing.
01:11It's a pretty full-on drawing.
01:13Now, can you talk to me?
01:16Were you there that night?
01:18I have asked you to give me space
01:20I have asked you to give me space
01:21And you won't listen, just back off
01:29Yes, okay
01:30Yeah, I'll speak to her
01:33I'll talk soon
01:35Bye
01:36Bye
01:37Hey, sweetheart
01:38That was your dad
01:40Can I fly over?
01:42We're thinking the end of term would be better
01:47No
01:48Look, you won't have to wait too long
01:50And you can call and speak to him any time
01:53But he's worried about your VCE
01:56And he's got a point
01:57Can I do that remotely?
01:59It's going to be tough
02:00And they're already on their road trip
02:04Look, I know it's not what you wanted to hear
02:07But maybe you, me and Paul could spend some time together
02:10Have a bit of fun
02:11Take your mind off things
02:12Like how?
02:13Um, a shopping trip in the city
02:17Maybe an exhibition
02:19I mean, in the meantime
02:20I could book you some counselling sessions if you like
02:24Can we talk about this later?
02:26Yeah
02:27Oh, JJ
02:29Hi
02:30Is everything okay?
02:31Uh, yeah, I just need to speak to Mel
02:33I'm actually really tired
02:36Um, yeah, yeah, it's quite late
02:39Why don't you go home and you can talk tomorrow?
02:42Yeah, I guess
02:43Um, please call me, yeah?
02:46Yeah, goodnight
02:54Hey
02:56Is everything okay with JJ?
02:59Does he have anything to do with you wanting to go away?
03:02Can I just go to bed?
03:05Yeah, of course
03:07But I'm here if you need me
03:12I like your time
03:16Thanks
03:17Sure
03:18Yeah
03:19I just had a really productive phone call with Dr Hill
03:21Oh, um, what did he say?
03:23At first glance, he thinks there might be a case to argue that Sebastian wasn't pushed, that he fell
03:29It's all in that angle and the momentum
03:32Is he available to appear at the trial? Hopefully
03:35We have to meet with him first
03:36Okay
03:37Hey, um, just to manage expectations, even if we do get him there, it's not a done deal
03:41It all depends on how receptive the jury are to his opinion
03:45But thanks to Byron, we know that Dr Hill's been successful before
03:49Wow
03:51That's sounding positive to me
03:52Well, yeah, it's the best chance we've got
03:54Um, thanks mate
03:55I really think it could make all the difference
04:05Would it kill you boys to clean up after yourselves?
04:09Well, I would've, but you're telling me to do my assignment
04:11Well, does that make you allergic to putting your plates in the dishwasher, does it?
04:15Hey, can you stay put, please? You're meant to be recovering
04:17Oh, you're not completely out of commission
04:19Well, just take it easy
04:20Yes, yes, yes
04:21Where have you been?
04:23Just visiting now
04:25Hey, um, is that, is that normal?
04:28Yes, Chelsea is changing Thomas and he has a nappy rash, so he's a little bit sore
04:33Assignment, hey?
04:36Dude, shut up
04:38I wonder how Chelsea's going to manage a new romance with everything else going on
04:41Honestly, it's Chelsea's problem, I don't have the bandwidth
04:44Mmm, another good day at work
04:46The latest, HR want all staff to do retraining and company values
04:50And judging by your tone, you have to organise it
04:53Mmm
04:55People still hustling you about where you're getting information from?
04:58Oh, only every day
05:00Uh, seriously, why am I taking care of this with Chelsea?
05:03I'm not the nappy man
05:05Just put it in the bin, just take it out of the bag
05:08Chelsea, where's me one bit?
05:12You okay?
05:14Yeah, no, I'm fine
05:15I'm fine
05:17I looked up Dr. Hill's credentials, he's really well respected
05:21Yeah, it almost sounds too good to be true, I don't know if I can believe it
05:26In case it's not the magic bullet
05:28Well, then I won't be disappointed
05:31It's okay to feel hopeful, Leo
05:34Yeah, I just, I can't believe this whole time we thought it could have been someone else
05:38When maybe Seb did just trip and fall
06:08And she got them
06:10Yeah, they'd just be a good
06:14Yes, no, they're dead
06:22Yeah, they're dead
06:24Yeah, they're dead
06:26Yeah, they're dead
06:28Yeah, you got them
06:30Yeah, you got them
06:32Mel
06:33Hey
06:36Mel
06:37I don't understand what's going on, all right?
06:39You don't seem okay.
06:40I'm getting really worried.
06:41Can you just talk to me, please?
06:44It's not gonna make a difference.
06:46What does that mean?
06:49This obviously has something to do with your drawings.
06:54You don't wanna know.
06:56Trust me.
06:56We can work it out together.
06:58We're a team.
07:07You can't say anything to anyone.
07:11Okay, I won't.
07:12I promise.
07:19The night before Grandpa's funeral,
07:24I couldn't sleep, so I went for a walk.
07:29That was the night Seb died, right?
07:34I was walking by the lake,
07:36and I heard someone calling out for Fallon.
07:41Fallon!
07:43Hey!
07:46Who are you calling?
07:48Fallon!
07:52Hey!
07:53Fallon!
07:55Ooh!
07:56Fuck!
08:00All I know is that some drunk guy grabbed me
08:03and I pushed him off.
08:11I didn't know it was him.
08:18I didn't think about it again until I got back
08:21and I heard everyone talking about it.
08:25I realised he must have stumbled...
08:28..hit his head...
08:31..and fallen into the water.
08:40I feel, Sebastian.
08:44What's gonna happen to me?
08:45I've heard from Dr Hill again.
08:47I've heard from Dr Hill again.
08:47He wants to meet this afternoon.
08:48I've heard from Dr Hill again.
08:49He wants to meet this afternoon.
08:50Georgia and I have been going through a list of questions.
08:51We need to ask him, you know,
08:51make sure we've got everything covered.
08:52Byron's also started redoing our pre-trial prep...
08:53..based on the new strategy.
08:54Obviously it was teamwork.
08:55Well, you've both really come through for me, so...
08:57..thank you.
08:58Yeah, we're really lucky to have you on our site.
08:58Honestly, it's the first time I felt like I might actually have a chance.
08:59I've been really lucky to have you on our site.
09:00Honestly, it's the first time I felt like I might actually have a chance to have a chance.
09:00I'm a win for you.
09:01I don't know.
09:02I'm a win for you.
09:02But if you're going to have a chance to do that.
09:03Well, I'm a win for you.
09:03It's a win for you.
09:04I'm a win for you.
09:05Yeah, I'm a win for you.
09:05everything covered
09:07Byron's also started redoing our pre-trial prep based on the new strategy. Obviously it was teamwork
09:14Well, you've both really come through for me. So thank you. Yeah, we're really lucky to have you on our side
09:19Honestly, it's just the first time. I felt like I might actually have a chance
09:23Did you need to get that?
09:28It's subs done. What do you want? I don't know
09:35Sorry, I'll call him back later
09:40And I know it's weird that I didn't say anything to anyone, but everything going on at the funeral and then we headed to the States
09:47I just had to put it out of my mind
09:52And I only thought I pushed him I don't know what actually happened until seven until I got back
09:59No, that's that's really full-on
10:01I
10:05Just want to go see my dad
10:08I'll know what to do
10:11That's why you wanted to leave
10:16I can't stay here
10:19I feel so bad for all the trouble Leo's in
10:23I can't handle this. Well, have you thought about talking to Therese?
10:26You know, she can protect you and work out a plan
10:30No
10:33She can't help Leo and he's innocent
10:36How could she help me if I'm actually guilty?
10:39Yep, that was an accident
10:41At least self-defense. Yeah, it wasn't like proper murder
10:44I
10:49Can't
10:51They'll put me in jail. I know they will
10:54It's okay
10:56We'll sort it out
10:59It'll be okay
11:01Things must be pretty bleak in the world of Tay if this is your best option this morning
11:05Literally any excuse to get out of the house
11:08Oh, there's Kara
11:10What's the problem?
11:11Trying not to hang out with her in public
11:13Hotel guests give me dodgy looks
11:15You know only 10% of the staff have started the training and only 5% have finished it
11:19It's supposed to be done by the end of the week
11:21People are busy
11:23Yeah, I know
11:24I mean, tell me about it
11:25But there's another problem
11:26You know that the staff are using the Lassiter's loyalty points to book into other hotels
11:30I'm going to be surprised
11:32It's just another problem I have to stamp out
11:34I'm sick of being the bad guys
11:36At least you're copying everything you've actually done
11:38Everyone thinks I'm diving them into you
11:40Aren't you?
11:41Can you send out a memo or something to say it's not me?
11:45You'll be fine
11:47Come on Sam
11:59Byron, hey
12:00Hey, uh
12:01I heard you were working on on Leo's case
12:03How's that all coming along?
12:05It's um, it's challenging but we're fairly confident
12:07All right, so you reckon Leo's gonna get off or?
12:11That's the hope
12:12All right, are you going for like a self-defense type argument?
12:16Uh, it doesn't really apply to Leo's situation since he wasn't there when Seb fell in the water
12:21Right, but you could you could argue that though, right?
12:24Like if if Seb were to start a Leo and he pushed him away
12:28All right, if Seb then fell into the lake and drowned that that wouldn't be murder
12:31I suppose not if that's what we thought happened
12:36But um, just between you and me, we're just trying to prove that Seb fell over and hit his head
12:42Oh, I didn't know it could go down like that
12:45Yeah, no
12:46It shows that things can happen and sometimes it's no one's fault
12:51Hey, why are you so interested in the case?
12:52Oh, I'm just just really worried about Leo
13:05I can help you with those if you want
13:07Hey guys, I need your help
13:09You need to encourage the staff to do the training
13:12I'm a little busy today
13:14Seriously
13:15People will really think I'm in your pocket if I do that
13:17Oh, well great, thanks for your help
13:19Hey, Krista
13:23Have you got a check?
13:24Yeah, what's up?
13:25Oh, well, it's just about this retraining
13:27It's a lot of work to get the staff on board
13:30Right, if anyone's being an issue just let HR know
13:33Yeah, I'm not really keen on throwing names at HR
13:37Well, then you'll have to deal with it yourself
13:39Well, that's the thing
13:40Between the retraining and the missing loyalty points and my normal job, I'm stretched really thin
13:47I thought you told Paul that you could handle it
13:49Uh, yeah, I just don't think I realised how many issues there were to look into
13:55I think that we should hire a consultant for the compliance staff
13:57It's just, that's an unnecessary expense
13:59We can't, um
14:07Can, I'm sorry, can you just talk to Paul about it, please?
14:11Well, can't you raise it with me, Paul?
14:12No, I mean, I just, I can't deal with this right now
14:14I'm sorry
14:24So you're just waiting for a meeting with a forensics expert?
14:26Yeah, Byron and George are catching up with them
14:28He's often need to lock things in, so
14:30Ah, then
14:30Then maybe Leo can focus on something a little bit more fun
14:33Like organising an easter egg hunt
14:35Well, we know Abby can't stop talking about it
14:37Let's just hope that Easter Bunny has a good stash of chocolate easter eggs
14:40Yeah, he does, for kids big and small
14:43But don't worry, we got you something even better
14:46Easy for you
14:50How did you get these? The screen sold out weeks ago
14:53Well, I might happen to know someone who works at Acme
14:56Apparently, it's the biggest anime release of the year
14:58It is, they're doing a huge premiere
15:00Yeah
15:01And you're gonna be there
15:02Yeah
15:02You should take JJ
15:04Oh, I can take you if you'd prefer
15:06Well, either way, you deserve it
15:08This is so nice, are you sure?
15:11Of course we're sure, honey
15:13Yeah, you've been dealing with a lot
15:15I've seen your family and everything that we've had going on
15:19You should go and have some fun
15:21And please know that anything, anytime we're here for you, okay?
15:37Hey, did you just get the Naki email from Cara about training?
15:44Yeah, guess we'll have to do it
15:50You know, Sam thinks I'm the snitch
15:52And Cara couldn't care less if everyone at work hates me
15:56Well, to be fair, she seems pretty stressed out about work herself
15:59Well, it's our own fault
16:01No sympathy over here
16:02I don't know what to do
16:08Maxing and relaxing
16:10Lucky for some
16:12I tried Thomas and Cara for a few hours and in a pretty house
16:16Umbrella drink
16:19Well, your shift doesn't start for a while, right?
16:22Why didn't I text Max and tell him you'll come over for a swim?
16:26Seriously?
16:27Yeah, dude, no offence if you have to forget about Cara
16:45Are you home alone?
16:46Yeah
16:47Always at school, Cara's out and Chelsea's on a date with Darcy
16:51Oh, winning
16:53Ugh, almost as more dirty nappies like you
16:56Oh, I know it's been bad here lately
16:59But you know I love you living with us, right?
17:02It's pretty good, I guess
17:03Oh, you guess
17:06Are you free?
17:07Interested in a game of poker?
17:09You said you used to play with your dad, yeah?
17:11Once in a while, if I was home, sick
17:14Me too
17:16It's like my comfort thing now
17:18I would, but I'm heading over to Max's for a swim
17:21No worries, another time
17:26You know what?
17:32That sounds great
17:33Really?
17:35Yeah
17:36I'm gonna whoop you, kid
17:37So Byron seemed pretty confident
17:42I don't think Leo's gonna be convicted
17:44But it shouldn't be him, it should be me
17:47Look, I know you feel really bad about Leo
17:49But this whole thing might just go away
17:52And maybe, maybe to raising your dad all right
17:54You can stay here, not mess up your VCE
17:57Leo goes free, it's all over
17:59Which also makes me the worst person in the world
18:03No, no it doesn't
18:04Just this way
18:06Your dad doesn't have to know, right?
18:08And then Seb's death gets ruled an accident
18:10And everybody gets on with their life
18:13So I just stay quiet until Leo's proven innocent?
18:16I mean, maybe, yeah
18:17Hi
18:19Hey
18:20Is everything okay?
18:23Yep
18:25Um, maybe you and dad will write about me missing school
18:31I think I should stay here and see how I come
18:37Uh, I think that's probably for the best
18:39And I'm glad you're feeling better about it
18:44Uh, we should get back
19:09What's going on in here?
19:19Oh, Renny's just pleasing me at poker
19:22Ooh, can I play?
19:23No, you can't
19:25Watch out, it's compliance, Cara
19:28Can you not? That is so juvenile
19:30Okay, you too, okay
19:32I'm home because we have to have a really hard chat with Dex
19:35about how much he's been gaming
19:36Ah, yes, okay
19:37We do
19:38And I've had a really trying day with work
19:40Which Tay, you haven't made any easier
19:42And now there's this mess
19:44It's not just me, I'm playing with your wife if you haven't noticed
19:47But she can't clean it up and you won't
19:48So guess who gets to pick up after everyone yet again?
19:51Oh, just relax for a minute
19:53You're ruining the vibe
19:55Are you serious?
19:56This is my house, so I'll have whatever vibe I like
19:59Especially with a freeloader
20:00Cara
20:04That's how it is
20:06Freeloading?
20:07I'm so done with this place
20:12I'm moving out
20:20No matter how many times you look, that's not gonna make it ring
20:22I'm sure that Georgia will let us know the moment that she hears from the forensic expert, okay?
20:31Thanks
20:34Whatever happens
20:35It's always gonna be you and me
20:44Seb's daddy's coming over here
20:46What?
20:46Why are you ignoring my calls?
20:49What are you too busy to talk about my dead son?
20:52I thought he was your friend
20:56I'm
20:56He needed you
20:58But you didn't give a damn
21:00No, no, no, mate
21:00That's not fair
21:01This isn't on Christmas
21:02How dare you speak to me?
21:04I know you're the one who murdered my son
21:07No, no, I didn't
21:08I promise
21:08Then you're also a liar
21:10Stan, can we just sit and talk about this please?
21:12I'm gonna make your life hell
21:13Excuse me
21:14You heard me
21:16If it's the last thing I do, I'm gonna make sure you lose everything you've ever cared about
21:20Coming up on Neighbours
21:26How's the school? Any good?
21:27I'm basically a glorified babysitter now
21:29Leo, you are not going to jail
21:31Can you guarantee that?
21:33No, I'm basically homeless
21:35Maybe this has happened for a reason
21:37I was thinking about what I said earlier
21:39Staying in your lane
21:41Maybe you shouldn't
