All language subtitles for Packed To The Rafters s05e10 Letting Go

It's easy to hold on to problems.

Learning to let go, that can be the
tricky part.

Grandad!

Sorry for interrupting the prancing
stick insect.

Very funny.

Now, I take it you don't want Thai cheat
list?

Milk. Actually, we're all out.

Well, you know where it is. The trouble
is, some problems really aren't that

easy to resolve.

Especially if you're coming from two
very different angles.

Yeah, we're a bit short staffed. What
about tomorrow?

Urgent. Dad, come on. No, Dad, don't do
that. Oh, I'm sorry. We've got to help

you. It's fine, love. It's Ben, okay?

Look, don't make Dad do your dirty work.
I was just trying to sort out a job.

Ben's on his way. Knock, knock.

Is everything all right?

Yeah, of course. Why wouldn't it be?

It's like somebody hit the mute button.

It's just the shock of seeing you up
before midday, that's all, mate.

Not that bad, am I?

So, I'm guessing the early bird has some
kind of worm to catch.

Or milk to steal.

Yeah, sorry.

Early start taking the boat club. I'll
replace this, promise.

Believe it when I see it.

Better run.

Now, the way I see it... Dad, thanks for
that, but there's no need for you to

get involved.

And I don't know why you're still on the
couch when there's a perfectly good bed

in Rachel's room.

Well, there's a perfectly good bed in my
room.

You know...

You're going to have to let go of this
sometime.

I know, I... Say goodbye to Daddy.

Yeah, I know, I said I'd do it today,
but I can't clone myself, mate.

Hello?

The pool light's been broken for three
weeks. You wouldn't think another couple

of days would hurt.

Is that Frankie's?

Yeah, she must have left it here.

You might have noticed I'm a bit snowed
under.

I'll get rid of it.

Might be time to start advertising for a
new sparky. Yeah, if I had time, I

would. Maybe next week.

Say goodbye to Daddy.

Don't want to be late for daycare, do
we?

You going to work?

Yeah, well, it's Thursday.

Dad said he'd pick her up.

Are you giving me grief about a jacket,
but it's still okay for you to work with

Adam? Well, I think I can trust myself.

Morning.

Hey, Jake.

Have a good day.

Hey, Jill.

Come on, sweet.

Still on the couch?

Yeah, still there.

Look, I was thinking of giving Kirby a
call.

It's not right that he quit over this.
Oh, look, he's still kind of not over

Why can't everyone just calm down, get a
grip, bloody move on?

So, you just finished an apprenticeship?

Uh, finished as in quit.

Okay, what happened?

Uh, it just...

It wasn't working out.

We can put you in touch with another
business if you'd like to see it

Yeah, for real? Sure.

All you need is a reference from your
old employer, a record of hours worked,

and we can set it off. Oh, you know, I
was thinking maybe something different.

Press start. Okay.

How do you feel about relocating for
work?

Plenty of jobs out west.

Yeah, great. Clean slate.

Sounds perfect.

And, I mean, I can travel now that my
bond... What?

Jobs.

Well, there's plenty of mining work, for
example, in Western Australia.

WA.

He said West, I thought you meant, you
know, Blacktown.

So that's a no.

I mean, come on, there's got to be
something. I know my resume's not that

but I'm young and I'm hardworking and
I'm not into anything dodge.

What are you into?

Oh, you know, tats.

In comic books and cars.

There's a position open right now for
someone who likes cars.

Do you think you'd be interested? Hell
yeah.

I know you say you're ready to change.

But I need to get it down to paper.

It's in your face.

Hey, Julie.

Hey. How are you?

Yeah, good. You?

Yeah, it's good.

the other night.

Yeah, I'm sorry. You shouldn't have had
to see that.

Is everything okay?

You didn't have to come in today if you
need to be at home. Oh, no, I think

work's probably the best thing for me at
the moment.

Oh, good.

Great. So, deadline this afternoon?
Indeed it is. If any contributors

delivered yet, give them a quick call
slash... Don't take me the way I'm

feeling.

Okay. Better get to it.

Yes.

That's another six of the Chardonnay and
six of the Riesling.

Ben.

How about a vineyard?

Sorry? For the cottage.

We could plant vines, have our own
label. We should check it out this

Ben, be quiet.

What? I know wine's not easy. It's not
that. I haven't told Mum yet.

Well, no. Why not?

I don't want to go there unless we're
sure it's what we want.

Well, who wants?

You're getting married. Mum!

You're pregnant.

No! You're buying a dog.

Absolutely not.

Oh, thank goodness.

Because let me tell you, you're both
much too young for that sort of thing.

Dog ownership?

There's plenty of time later on in life
to settle down, get covered in dust.

Anyway, here it is at the lesson.

Empty those bins before you go.

See what I mean?

Sorry if she's not exactly going to jump
at the idea. I get that.

But the thing is, I'm pretty sure this
is what I want.

Aren't you?

Pretty sure, but is that enough?

We've just had time to forget how
awesome the place is.

As soon as we get back there, we'll be
sold.

Yeah.

And then we can tell your mum.

Yeah.

One shot, Cooper.

How have you got home?

I think tenth is the word I'm looking
for. I really put my foot in it, didn't

Don't beat yourself up.

It would have come out eventually.

Yeah, but I'm at a bad situation worse.

If that's how you feel, why don't you
come over to the house and clear the

You're short, Ted.

Oh, the writing's on the wall now, mate.

What are you doing?

That's not yours.

What? Your smalls aren't bigs.

No, you're not. Yes, I am.

Your smalls.

Right you are.

That was my heading.

You always do stuff like that.

Wait. Oh, what?

Look, I'm not going to beat around the
bush. Yeah, it says the bloke who's

exactly that.

I want you to come back to work.

It's too late. I've already got another
job.

Really? Yeah, and it's really great, and
there's no hassles and no two -faced

bosses.

All right, you want to have it out?
Fine. No, there's nothing to have out.

You're past Frankie at the end of the
story. Is it? Yeah. Now, look, I get how

you're angry about what happened.
Whatever. Yeah, but in the end, what

is none of your business.

I screwed up, Kirby.

And I'm paying for it. Well, that's not
my problem. I know, it's not your

problem, so don't make it yours.

We had a good thing going. I liked
having you on the team, and you liked it

Look, don't pay the price for my
mistake. That's all I'm saying.

There's a job waiting for you if you
want to come back.

Hello? Yes.

Does the Charger have passenger side
airbags?

Are you kidding?

It doesn't even have driver side
airbags.

What about ABS or traction control?

Babes, Chargers are built for burnouts.

That's what worries me. They're built
for burnouts, not for a baby.

What are you trying to say?

I don't think the Charger is the best
car for our child.

Look, keratosis and Chargers go together
like rock goes with roll.

Baby will be just fine.

Trust me.

Oh, because that'll fight, eh, Mr
Taylor?

Yeah, well, oh.

Where's Jules? I've run a late something
about a deadline.

Thank you.

Don't worry, we're going to cook.

Right, hello.

How are you, Dave?

I'm good, thanks, Donna.

I hope you don't mind, we've got a
dinner guest.

Oh, cheers.

Dave, I just wanted to say sorry about
the other night.

Oh, forget about it, Donna. I really
didn't mean to speak out of turn.

No, really, Donna, just forget about it,
okay?

All right, I'm just going to run a bath
for Ruby. Come on.

Well, that didn't go so badly.

Maybe you were right.

You know, I can't believe I did that.
What?

Running into the bins.

Oh, nothing serious.

I mean, I must have turned into that
driveway a thousand times, then suddenly

stuff it. Well, you have been a bit
forgetful lately, a bit distracted.

You have got a lot on your plate.

You know, maybe I've been letting things
get to me a bit more than I realise.

Better up the Tai Chi.

Julie.

Yeah, sorry.

Drifted off.

Oh, you wouldn't be the first journo
that happened to.

Journo? Oh, you're too kind.

Go home, Julie. I can finish up here.

No, no, no. I don't want to go home. I
want to do my job.

It's okay. I've got time. I'll get
there.

Would it help to talk about it?

Actually, I wanted to put a classified
ad in the paper.

A new electrician.

For Dave.

Well, talk to Maggie.

Tell her about Kate, that she won't
charge you.

Sure.

Here it is.

Secret family recipe.

Mmm, delicious.

What time exactly did Julie say she'd be
home?

Dinner time.

It's dinner time now.

Well, she's probably working on some
massive scoop that's going to blow the

off the establishment.

Joke, Dave. Remember those?

Dave, I'm sorry.

I'm not upset with you.

Maybe I should go.

No, no, please.

Stay.

Oh, that smells delicious.

Sorry I'm late. Have I made it in time?

Plenty of time.

Oh, good.

Donna, hi. Hi.

Ruby's still awake?

Ruby's down.

Well, come on. Come and get it while
it's hot.

Julie, I just wanted to apologise again
for the other day. Oh, Donna, it's fine.

Forget it.

Is this what Dave said?

It's whatever.

Just go wash my hands. Won't be too
sick.

Big day, was it, love?

You know what the standard's like. One
corner store closure after another.

Plans were nothing important.

Well, I wouldn't say.

Going back with a classified editor,
writing an ad for a new Sparky, nothing

important.

A Sparky for us?

Yeah, well, managed to pull a few
strings.

Got an ad in this week's edition.

That's what you wanted, wasn't it?

Yeah.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

Don't be sick.

When emotions run high,

Holding on to problems can be a point of
pride.

Lovely.

It takes a brave person to be the first
to let go.

Benno, I'm a genius.

Oh, yeah? Since when? I've sorted out
Retta's issues with the Charger.

Yeah? How does Retta feel about that?
Doesn't hate it.

Why do I get the feeling this isn't
going to end well?

It'll work. Watch.

Uh, Rita?

You want to talk about the charger?

Oh, how did you know?

Because I do too.

Ah, you see? Great minds think alike.

We'll see. Okay.

You go first.

Okay.

You're right.

The charger is not baby compatible.

Oh, God. My goodness.

I thought we were going to have the
hugest fight.

Just wait. Fight?

Oh.

You thought I was going to be upset with
modifying it.

So sweet.

A mod to modify? What are you talking
about?

And there it is.

I'll get it.

Come on, check it out.

Okay, look.

We can put anchor points inside the boot
for the baby seats, right? We can

install air con. We can even extend the
front seat rails so we've got more room

to get in the back.

Yeah, car boat. No modifications are
sacrilegious, but what other choice do

have?

Well, we're...

We could... Could sell it.

Sell it.

Yeah, good one, Retta.

Good.

Retta? I just thought we could...
Remember!

Look, you know that car is a part of me.
This is just your hormones talking

again. No, no, no, wait.

Look, I know you love that car. I know.
You know when I said I thought I was

happy about moving to the cottage
before?

The sooner the better? Yeah. I've never
seen that car in a van, never!

Hey. Yeah?

Oh, I thought we were moving on. You
know, the ad in the paper and... I'm not

ready.

I need time.

Sometimes it's worth a shot just to act
like we've let go.

But everything is okay.

But it doesn't always work.

Hey! You in, Brad?

Hey,

buddy.

Hey, mate. Sip of Deluxe washed, mate.
No worries, man.

Super deluxe car wash. What's the
occasion?

I'm thinking of selling her.

You're selling the charger?

Yeah, the wife reckons we should trade
her in for a four -door and eco

-friendly.

She's probably right.

Well, so that's it then?

Hey, it wasn't a walkover.

Toby? What are you doing in there?

I am the one asking the questions.

It's okay.

You can handle selling it.

Things change, yeah?

Eh, change or turn to crap.

I'll finish rearranging the schedule.
With a bit of luck, we'll get a weekend.

Light at the end of the tunnel?

Yeah, a pinprick, but I'll take it.

What's that?

That's Frankie's jacket. I put it there
for her to collect yesterday.

Couldn't get here, sorry.

Hey, Jake. Hey.

No worries.

How are you going, anyway?

Yeah, good.

Thanks. I should go. I didn't want to
intrude.

No, you're not intruding.

I'm just going to go and grab that thing
from the shed.

Yeah, sure.

Seals.

I just came to collect this. Yeah, I
need two. I'll get Ruby inside.

She just came to get her jacket like you
wanted her to. I didn't know I was

going to see it.

Oh, for God's sake, Jules, if I can get
over what happened between you and...

That is different. What's different is
that you're holding on to it like a

When are you going to let it go?

Milk. Oh, look at that.

Miracles do happen.

Yeah, don't try and get out of it this
time.

What's going on?

Nothing.

All right, well, not nothing, obviously,
but we're just very stressed.

Frankie's quit.

Frankie? I thought it was Kobe.

Yeah, he has too.

Did something happen between the two of
them?

It did, didn't it? Ah, Dad said she'd be
trouble.

Did? What did Dad ask me?

Look, look, it's complicated.

All you really need to know is that
we've been left in the lurch and things

aren't plain sailing around here,
business -wise.

It's more than just business.

Mum?

It'll work itself out.

Sorry, Ben.

Tell me, sweetheart.

Yeah, I'll give it a go too.

Thanks for the milk.

First time for everything, eh?

I don't buy it.

Do you?

I mean, they've been acting weird for a
while now, long before all this Kobe

-Frankie stuff.

Weird? Yeah, you know, different.

Snippy. I don't know.

You really haven't noticed anything?

I didn't say that.

Then what do you think's going on?

Well, look, they've had a few setbacks
lately and it's just kind of piling up.

But don't worry, Ben, they'll sort it
out.

What?

I think I know how to help them.

Ben, look, I think that you'd best stay
out of it. No, don't worry, Grandad,

this is going to be great.

Ben... Leave it with me, OK?

But try and force someone to let go of
something.

And now just hold on even tighter.

The country?

Yeah, that cottage I told you about.

Darling, I don't think we can just drop
everything and come away with you. Come

on, you both deserve a break. And this
place, trust me, once you get there,

troubles just evaporate.

And besides... What?

This way, you can tell me if you think
buying it's a good idea.

Oh, right, though a hidden agenda.

When do you have to be back at the
paper?

Well, not till next week, but I...
Great. You're available.

And I know you don't want Ruby
unsettled. That's why Grandad's going to

her here instead.

At your service.

Jake says you've got the weekend clear.

You seem to have all of our excuses
covered.

I'm not taking no for an answer.

Well, in that case, of course we'll
come.

Awesome. I'm going to go and tell Emma.

That's a free whack for every two pair
of car wash.

Yep.

Oh, man, what a mess.

Yeah, well, it isn't your mess anymore.

You reckon? Julie hates me.

It's kind of understandable.

I just... I just wish that she knew how
sorry I was.

What are you telling me for?

You know where she lives.

Yeah, I know, I know.

Listen, they've been married, what, 30
years? I mean, one stupid kiss isn't

going to destroy all that.

Yeah, but it's obviously causing
problems. And if I hadn't jumped on him

some stupid teenager with a crush, then
none of this would be happening.

Oh, that is bull.

Excuse me?

You were just saying that? What?

It takes two, Frankie. You can't tell me
it doesn't take two.

Toby? What are you doing here?

Listening to your garbage. You are both
as bad as each other.

Kobe, I meant what I said. This is all
my fault.

Are you working at a car wash? No, I'm
just going for a stroll. What do you

where I work?

Because I do.

I'm sorry.

Please don't throw your job away because
of something stupid that I did. Just

shut up, okay? I don't want to hear it.

It's true, Kobe. It's my fault.

Wow.

That was random.

All set?

Yeah, I think so. Although Julie seems
to have forgotten to pack the kitchen

sink for the first time in her life.

Don't tempt me.

Looks like they're happier already.

Oh, your evil plan is working.

Dave?

Frankie?

Can I talk to you for a second?

It's probably the last thing that you'll
want to hear and the least helpful, but

I really am sorry.

And I'm sorry because I'm the one who
should be.

It's my fault. The whole thing.

Dave has never been inappropriate or
done anything to encourage me. He's been

boss and a good man.

And I am...

Sorry that I have put either of you
through any of this.

We were drunk.

It was a long night and it was time to
go and... I just did

it.

I kissed him.

Why?

I liked him.

It was a stupid crush and I thought that
it could stay that way, but it didn't.

I acted on it and I know that it's not
about Dave, it's about me and I'm never

going to forgive myself for that.

What you two have...

Anyway,

thank you for hearing me out.

Don't blame Dave, it's my fault and...

Sorry. I hope you can see her.

So, why don't you pass the big beef arm,
chuck a left, and you can't miss it.

Sorry.

See you, Frankie.

All good?

Yeah, she just needed to get that form,
so... We should get going. Yeah, all

right, just follow us.

Safe driving.

Do as I say, not as I do it, Grandad.

Okay, bye, darling.

And if she needs me, you'll... I'll show
her your photo. Now go on, get out of

here.

And have fun.

That's what Frankie wanted.

Did they get away okay?

Against all odds.

When Frankie showed, I thought the fur
was going to fly.

I think Julie's way too civilised for
that.

I don't know.

I've never seen her so rattled.

I didn't realise how tense things were
until I was round there the other night.

Maybe that's what's been getting to you.

Getting to me?

Well, you know.

Not really.

Well, it could be one explanation.

You think I'm starting to lose it. No.

Was this something that Cooper said?

And then there was the business with the
car.

Hey, I'm 68.

It goes with the territory.

And there have been other instances.

Such as?

Well, sometimes you confuse people's
names.

Who doesn't? And then there was that
night you were supposed to meet at my

place, but you came here to the boat
club.

That's your evidence?

Well, Ted...

Just ignore me. I'm probably being
silly.

Too right you're being silly.

I've never heard anything so ridiculous
in my life.

Come on, Ruby.

We're out of here, love.

Oh, Ted.

I'll see you later.

Mate, are you serious?

265 Clear Eyes Street Tune?

What are you selling it for?

Family reasons.

Insane.

They don't make them like this anymore.

No, no, they make them with back doors
and airbags.

Who cares about that stuff when you've
got this under the hood?

You don't know how long I've been
looking for a car like this.

You want your first one to be special,
you know?

Well, it's yours if you've got the cash.

I've got a deposit, but my dad can pay
the rest when we figure out later.

It's yours.

Walla walla, wincha!

Um, actually, you might want to hold off
on that deposit.

What? Yeah, it's got a few problems,
like the brakes. They don't work much,

ever. And during real, the disaster
comes off all the time.

Stop.

She's kidding.

I don't know what you're doing. It's
about nothing. I'm ready to sell.

But you're upset and it's okay. I'm just
going to sneak a hand to the end or

something. I'm not upset.

You look like you're about to cry.

A hit of joy.

See me on the dance.

It's going to be the perfect time.

Are you sure?

This is all yours, mate.

Yes!

Sometimes all it takes to let go is
distance and time.

But baby, it's all the same.

But even that's not always enough.

And I'd like to sit with you and count
my money in the

rain.

think of the children.

What the hell?

Shut your mouth. Is that from the
costume?

More importantly, is it contagious?

No, it's just heat rash, you drongo. I
don't know, mate. It looks more like an

STD to me.

Well, up here.

Well, you don't know who's wearing that
thing before you.

No, seriously, I need some help. This is
killing me.

I'll buy beers for a week. Two weeks.
Come on, please. Don't make me bed,

Hey, mate. Look, you made your own bed.
You lie in it.

So about that weekend at the Blue
Mountains.

Yeah, what about it?

Well, I heard that maybe it wasn't as
much Dave's fault as I thought.

Where did you hear that?

Well, it doesn't matter. Is it true?

Well, I don't know who started it. All I
know is Dave was the one that stopped

it.

Right, well, I admit, maybe I've been a
bit of a tool.

Yeah, and a sponge.

Oh, I have been wondering where

I have been pondering.

Where I've been lately is no concern of

yours.

Who's been touching my skin?

It's amazing, isn't it?

Wow, what a view.

Beautiful.

See why we love it so much?

It's magic.

Can we see inside?

Yeah.

And if you'd like to follow me into the
living quarters.

So, what do you reckon?

It's... Well, it's... It's lovely. It's
cosy.

Yeah. Yeah, cosy's right.

Talking of which, if you'd like to
follow me, Mr and Mrs Rafter, your

quarters.

You've been so good to me.

So loyal.

So reliable.

Don't forget me.

Because I'm never going to forget you.

You're doing the right thing.

Are you sure?

Yeah, I'm sure.

Well, you better get going.

He'll be back with his dad soon.

Yeah.

Do you want me to come with you?

Man's final draw with his machine. He's
a private matter

Letting go of our pride and joy when the
time is right is possible.

Lifelong habits, they're a little
harder.

Sorry again about the bed situation.

No, it's a bit of a squeeze.

Then again, maybe that's a good thing.

No, it's fine.

Yeah, no, it's not a problem.

Might even get lucky, Dad.

Ben. Sorry.

Parental sex, what was I thinking?

These veggies are lovely.

Organic, see? I told you they make a
difference.

That's why we want to grow them.

We want to be self -sufficient. Yeah,
well, good luck. It's hard work.

Oh, since when have you ever grown
veggies?

When we first moved into Randall Street.

No. You hadn't even been born. Oh, I
know. I'd forgotten about that. That

veggie patch.

What did you grow?

Oh, tomatoes, zucchini.

Yeah, which were supposed to be
pumpkins. That's right.

I don't know what happened there.

Yeah, well, let's just say as a
gardener, you make a great sparky.

Hey, I'm a good gardener. Yeah, just
don't ask them to tell the difference

between a pumpkin and a zucchini seed.
No, the guy said they were pumpkins.

Yeah, and you believed him. Why wouldn't
I?

OK, let's just say that there are many
amazing things about you, darling, but

maybe gardening's not one of them.

Yeah, I'll drink to that.

Me too.

Cheers. Cheers.

Hang on, Ruby. I haven't forgotten you.

I mean, there's still no one in this
family who can do the crossword as fast

I can.

And who's the first one to always pick
the trivial pursuit, eh?

Eh?

I wonder.

Here we go.

Are you a monster?

A giant monster.

Cloverfield.

Frankenstein. No.

I'm lost. You with a hangover.

A dinosaur.

Oh, Godzilla.

Ice Age.

Jurassic Park. Yes.

Yes. Yes.

All right, what's that then?

Five all. Who's up?

I think it'd be you, Daddy. Okay. There
you go.

All right, here we go.

Piece of cake. All right, you ready to
go?

Then go.

Okay, it's a movie.

Two words.

First word.

Open. No.

Shut up.

Robot.

Robot. Zombie.

I don't know.

Shark.

Shark. Okay, shark.

Jaws. No, that's one word.

Shark.

Okay, there's five seconds left. Come
on.

Four, three,

two,

one.

Sorry, time's up.

Crocodile. Crocodile Dundee.

Oh, well, why didn't you just do that
then?
