All language subtitles for Packed To The Rafters s05e17 Keeping Step

When everything in life seems to be
chugging along fine, it's easy to keep

instead.

At least, it should be.

Oh, you seriously need to be asking the
question.

Oh, Dad, come on, show them how it's
done.

Ah,

might pass on that. Oh, come on, you
love dancing.

That was a long time ago.

Oh, I might just leave it there. I don't
want to have to do things before the

class tonight.

Hey.

Have you got someone to look after Ruby
while you go?

But you said you were going to be in
tonight.

I also said I don't want to be left in
charge.

It's when things aren't running quite so
smoothly that you have to tread that

little bit more carefully.

We need to let him decide what he's
capable of at the moment.

The longer I leave it, the more set in
his ways he'll get. You know how

Dad can be.

Whereas you're just persistent, right?

If Dad just got on with his life, he'd
realise that he was overreacting.

You backtracked the other day. I thought
you were starting to see things his

way. No, I just got emotional and let
things get to me.

Jules, we've been through this. We can't
ignore what happened with the fire. I

mean, what if something did happen to
Ruby while Ted was looking after her? I

can't believe I'm the only one that
thinks Dad's capable of some sort of

responsibility. Don't you think we need
to make some changes? Just when it comes

to Ruby, that's all.

Just give Ted some more time. It's just
one dance class.

It's not the end of the world if we miss
it.

Rafter electrical.

Yeah, sure, if it's an emergency, I'm
sure we can organise something.

Oh, I got it.

Jennings Barton residence, master of the
house, Peter.

Hi, Dave.

OK, we're on our way now.

What are you stood on here?

Well, you took half an hour in the
bathroom. Yeah, well, maybe you got up a

earlier, you could get in first.

All right, well, I'll swing by and pick
her up. Then while we're on it, do you

think you could open the window while
you're in there? Yeah. Oh, yeah, sorry

about that.

All right, yeah, no worries.

I got it.

All right, see you later.

Oi, there's been a change of plans.
There's some maintenance guys. They

the main board. All right, we're coming.
No, no, not you, me.

Well, what about the other jobs?

Well, you and Dave can do it. I trust
you.

Smartass. It's on the way to Frankie's
place, so I'm going to grab the van and

pick her up. Hey, does that mean
someone's going to finally see a laugh?

It is a bit weird that she's always here
and we never cop an invite to hers.

She's a private person?

Ah, like someone else we know, Cobes.

Yeah. You check it out. Report back to
us, Coby.

Don't tell me you're not curious.

Is this your place? Yes, it is.

And you need to get back in, and then we
take the first... No, no, no, we've got

a bit of time. How about you give me the
grand tour?

Dave said the job was urgent.

What? I can duck in and fill me water
bottle. You do know what urgent means,

don't you? I will die if I don't have
water.

I'll buy your bottle. On the way.

Me and the boys reckon it's weird that
none of us have seen your place.

Why is that weird?

Guys, you've seen our seats.

You do, like, have a house, don't you?
You're not, like, homeless or anything.

Yeah, all right. You got me. I am
homeless. I live in a dumpster behind a

station. I was amateur. I lived in a
soggy cardboard box for years, dreaming

living in a dumpster.

All right.

Boring truth, I had to get out of there
because my place stinks from being

fumigated. Are you satisfied?

That's cool.

I will invite you guys around sometime
if that's what you would like. You

And that's our hug? Can we go now? Yes.

We'll get these unpacked in ten minutes,
then we should do something to

celebrate. Great, like what?

Maybe lunch?

Oh, hey Emma.

Hey. Moving day?

Yep.

Welcome to the neighbourhood.

Oh, thanks.

They're gorgeous.

What have you been up to today?

We've been to the park, haven't we? Oh,
she's so cute.

And I have to tell you, I'm a brilliant
babysitter if you ever need someone.

Oh, right.

Yeah, we might take you up on that. I
usually vote for chocolate, but for this

one, I'll do it for free. Well, don't
get your hopes up. We don't get out

Yeah, but what you're saying is...
Anyway, how's your mum?

Great. Yeah, she kept it surprisingly
together when I drove away.

Oh, good for her.

Oh, well, I won't hold you up. See you
around. Yeah, see you. See you, Ruby.

Bye. See you.

Oh, parents.

They're overprotective.

So, Carbo's got the day off too. What do
you want to do?

There's a fantastic sushi place near the
station.

Oh, Sushi Guy. Yeah. Oh, but Carbo hates
raw fish.

Maybe that pub that plays country music
and we can have burgers.

Oh, both.

Brilliant. Sounds like a plan. Something
for everyone.

So, what are we talking? White ants?

What?

Cockroaches. Are you on drugs?

Your house is getting fumigated.

Oh, that.

Yeah, that. Because if it's white ants,
you know, once you get rid of them, they

can march straight on back in again.
It's not white ants.

Cockies then. Yeah.

Big, freaky, annoying ones. Kind of
remind me of you.

You okay?

Yeah.

You're not a bit tense or something?

Cool, I suppose.

Sometimes it's hard to tell if you're
joking or if you're actually annoyed.

I'm not annoyed, I promise.

Cool.

So, serious, how come nobody ever sees
where you live? All right, now I'm

actually annoyed. What is it, like a pit
bull fighting ring or Indian orphans

running a sweatshop in your backyard?

Look, the toilet's okay.

You do what you've got to do and I'll
take care of it.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I can do it.
Just take it easy. It's done.

Okay, see ya.

So you're not coming now? Oh, Tua's
freaking out. She's got two kids that

sick and has to pick another one up from
school.

It's been a day off. Not anymore.

Let's do it some other time. No, you
don't get another first day.

No, Dr. Thickey for this.

It should be all three of us. It's going
to be harder than we think.

You know, you work nights and we're gone
during the day. Our gang has serious

scheduling issues.

Well, why don't we come with you to the
forest?

Why? Because it'll be fun.

No, no, working at Tua's is not fun.

I'd almost rather eat sushi.

Oh! Oh, it's a, um...

What is that?

Started off as a vase, then it was a
coffee mug for a while.

Now it's a spoon rest.

I didn't know spoons needed a rest.

Um, yeah, look, I don't know if you're
getting better at this or worse.

Thanks. Yeah.

Not even fired, is it? No.

Now that I'm persona non grata with
Barry, I'm stuck for a kiln. Oh.

And a man, for that matter. Oh.

I wonder which will be harder to find.

Actually, there's a booking at the boat
club tomorrow night that could cure me

of my terminal singledom. Really? What?

Handsome stranger?

Old acquaintance? Bring a single mingle.

Sorry? It's kind of drinks and nibbles,
but for singles.

No marries or partners, just singles.

And every single has to bring a single
friend.

Oh, well, that sounds promising.

Who are you going to take?

What do you reckon, Ted?

Care to check out the range of available
local ladies?

No.

Go on, Dad. It'll be fun.

It's okay. He's not in the mood. No, you
have not been anywhere for ages.

You might enjoy yourself.

I said I'm not interested.

Sorry, Donna.

I'll be back in a sec.

Look, if you've come here to talk me
into going to this singles night, you're

wasting your time.

Well, you should go with Donna.

But there's more going on here than
that.

Oh, is there?

Dad, lately all you've been doing is
shutting yourself off.

Yeah, and you know why.

Right, so this is it. One hiccup and
you're just going to put your life on

I don't think you realise what I'm
facing here. Dad, I know you got

But you're still the same man you were
before the fire.

No, I'm not.

I'm not up to meeting new people.

I'm not even capable of doing the things
that I used to do. It's true.

I can't drive on my own.

I can't be left alone with Ruby anymore.
Yeah, of course you can.

Would you stop disagreeing with me and
listen to what I'm trying to tell you?

Dad, I have watched and listened to you
for weeks since the fire and I've seen

nothing that makes me think your mind is
slipping in any way.

It's just a matter of confidence.

Oh, that it were that simple.

Well, it could be, if you'd let it.

Donna's gone then?

Yeah, just left.

Did she tell you she asked me to be her
friend at the singles night?

You're not single.

Apparently I could pretend.

You wouldn't mind?

No, I wouldn't. Not for her.

Mind you, I might have another go at
convincing Dad.

He's not a feeble old man.

It's not even certain he's got dementia.

Well, I know you turned down Emma's
offer, but I seriously think we might

to find other people to look after Ruby.

Well, you might have given up on Dad,
but I haven't. Daddy, I haven't given up

on anyone.

You don't trust him to look after Ruby,
do you?

To be honest, no, I don't.

Do you?

Dad's not an invalid.

He just needs our support.

Hi, I need a bunch of flowers, something
that says sorry and doesn't make too

big a deal of it.

I'll get the cover.

Um, for a woman?

Yeah, just a friend, one whose birthday
I should remember.

Ah. Okay, so not red roses then? No.

No. Might be too big of a statement.

Might as well just throw that ring in
and propose.

Small statement, definitely small
statement. Yeah, another colour of rose

be good though.

Okay, sounds perfect.

Oh, it's beautiful.

Now, if I got a dozen of these for my
birthday, I wouldn't mind it all if they

arrived a couple of days later. Oh, a
week.

Oh, in that case, let's make it two
dozen.

You can throw in a few lilies to be
sure. Okay.

That's a great idea.

Okay, sold.

I'll make an arrangement.

How did we go?

Poor guy didn't stand a chance, was he?

So, back to yours for beer?

Not today.

I've got things to do.

All right, come on, Spill. You've got a
secret shrine to Justin Bieber, or a

hydroponic set -up. You'll feel better
once you tell a friend. How much longer

are we going to play this game for?

Just invite us back to your place and
it's game over.

I'm not going to let you press me into
anything. I'll see you tomorrow.

Oi, hang on.

I'm sorry if I'm getting on your case.

No, it's okay. I just need to go. I've
got a bus to catch. Okay, well, I'll

you a lift.

And I promise I'll drive away before you
open the door so I can't peek in.

You want your own privacy. I'll get
that.

Thanks. But if you ever want to talk or
company, we're mates, right?

So... I'm home alone tonight, and if you
get sick of dying cockroaches, you

just... You're dying cockroaches. I'll
give that some thought.

Now, you and me, strip Jenga, doesn't
get much better than that.

Sometimes two people are more in step
with each other than one of them, at

least, is prepared to admit.

Well, you know what they say.

Purple and green should never be seen
without a bit of baby's breath in

I have so much to learn.

Look, I have to admit, this has been
about the best day I've had at work

ever. And you said it wasn't fun.

Yeah, but it is.

How come Tula's so stressed about it?

She's always stressed. You know, the
kids are a handful, and you've seen her

hair, right? Yeah, well, hair on that
scale does require a lot of maintenance.

Oh, yeah.

Still, being your own boss must be nice.

Oh, but you love your work. I do, I do.
It's just, it's such a small company,

the owners do most of the work. I don't
know if that's... Never going to change.

Well, that'd be crazy not to use you
more.

Yeah, but you know, we're always looking
for someone for the 4am market running

for the day.

Hey Mum, what's up?

Ah, I've actually got plans.

There's no one else?

No, I'll do it.

See you in a bit.

Got to work tonight?

Yeah, someone's called in sick.

Well, it was our luck today. We're
supposed to be going out tonight. Yeah,

boots, scooting and bourbon. I know.

Emma!

You're late enough as it is.

Well, if you didn't insist on everyone
wearing these boring shoes, no wonder I

left them here.

Safety comes first.

Anyhow, I guess we're all adjusting.
About to be a few wobbles.

How are you going settling in at Carbo
and Retta's?

Yeah, no problems. How are you doing?

Me? I'm fine, yeah.

I think it's great that you're spreading
your wings.

Expecting a call?

Maybe.

No guess.

Those customers aren't going to serve
themselves.

I hope.

Oh.

Hello?

Donna, hi.

Oh, Julie, hello.

Have I got you in a bad time?

No, no, no. I was just expecting a call
from a man I've been chatting to online.

That was quick.

Well, he sounds perfect.

Don't want some other cougar to snap him
up.

I won't keep you from the hunt too long.

Listen, could you do me a favour
tonight?

Well, look who just turned up.

Surprise. Oh, hello there.

I just finished work, thought I'd pass
by.

Interrupting anything?

No, no, not at all.

Oh, hang on.

It's yourself tonight, isn't it? You're
probably on your way out.

No, we're going to give it a miss
tonight.

Oh, really?

Lost your groove?

Um, I'm not feeling my old self.

I'm not sure I'm completely reliable as
a babysitter. Oh, Ted, I'm sure you are.

Doesn't matter.

Just one clout.

Why don't you leave me here and go?

Oh, can you do that? Of course you
could. We could manage between us,

we, Ted? Oh, I suppose.

No, we wouldn't want to impose.

Don't be silly, I'm offering.

Yeah, well...

You wouldn't offer if you didn't want
to, would you? Yes. Go on, be free.

have fun.

Ted and I will have a fine time looking
after little Ruby while you're gone.

But I... No, no, no. No getting out of
it. Bad luck. Get our dancing shoes on.

Looks like you've run out of excuses,
mate.

Enjoy.

KB1, cockroaches, nil.

I was thinking about what you said about
us being mates and being able to talk.

Cool, I'm glad.

Yeah, I thought I'd come over.

Take a seat.

Do you want a beer or something?

No, no, I'm good.

Actually, yeah, that'd be good. I should
have brought something.

There's no dramas.

G'day, g'day.

Matt, you're here.

Correct, I am.

Are you working later?

Oh, sadly, no. My shift got swapped till
tomorrow night.

Hey, Frank.

Didn't get enough of us at work, eh?

Jake, having a quiet night in?

Yeah. I was going to go out, but then I
thought, who can be asked?

So, the four of us, eh?

Yeah, great, awesome.

It's not hard. It's one, two, three,
four. Yeah, I can count.

Yeah, you just can't move your feet at
the same time. Well, I don't know why

getting the blame. I mean, I'm the one
who nearly lost a toe under these heels.

A good class then, was it? Yeah, great.
Yeah, it'll be great. Once my wife

learns how to dance, it'll be even
better.

Me? Me?

Yeah. Excuse me. He has got the grace of
a drunk rhino with two left feet.

Rhinos do have two left feet, don't
they?

Yeah. Yeah, good point.

Anyway, thanks for looking after Ruby. I
take it there were no problems?

All good?

We had a fun night. And I should head
off.

I've got to get back to the club to lock
her.

Thanks, Donna.

Sorry we didn't get to spend more time.

Make your time.

Bye, Ted.

Bye, love.

Bye, Dave.

Thanks for popping over.

Anytime. I'll see myself out.

Bye.

Okay,

you can admit it now.

You set all that up, didn't you?

You're all right. Maybe I did.

I'm sorry, Dad. It's all right, love.

I'm glad.

Really? At least we're all on the same
page now.

Are we?

Well, we both agree that things have
changed, that I can't be left on my own

with Ruby.

No, Dad, that's not why I did it. I
just... You sure about that? No, I just

think you need to get your confidence
back and then things can get back to

normal. You just don't get it, do you?

This is normal.

And I think deep down you know it is
too.

Good night. Night, Ted.

Dad.

Hey, I thought I was going to find you
out in the street. No, not that

this morning. Are we good to go?

I'm busting, so can I use your can? I've
had three coffees this morning and I've

gone like three.

Couldn't we get going? Well, there's no
big hurry.

If you want to stay inside, you could
just ask.

I really need to go.

Seriously? Because I thought we were
always straight with each other and...

are and I need a pee.

Yeah, all right, fine.

Here you go.

Cheers. Bathroom somewhere.

Oi.

It's a cool place.

What is that?

Bathroom's that way.

No, give me a look.

No, we don't have time. Yes, we do. I'm
early, remember?

So, this is, um... This is your dad's
place?

Yeah.

And that's his boat?

Yeah, it was.

Just never quite got it finished.

Sorry, it's none of my business. I'm...

My picture.

Yeah, that's the first new thing I've
put in here since you died.

I like the way you haven't hung it.

Yeah, I'm sorry about that. No, I'm
serious. I reckon it looks good. People

hang pictures have no imagination, I
reckon.

Yeah, I like it. It's my attempt at
moving forward.

But you're nothing.

Hey, I know I am.

I am.

Hello, you two. You didn't tell me you
were coming in today.

I spent that thing. Yeah, Ruby's at a
birthday party, so I had some free time.

Well, I've got some news.

Oh, good.

I've met the most wonderful new man.

Oh, that's great.

Magster 14.

Not his real name, obviously.

So far, we've just chatted online.

Is he going to be your date for the
singles night? I've already asked him.

said first he wants to speak with me to
establish contact, and I'm expecting his

call any second.

Here you go, guys. Thank you.

I was actually coming around to the idea
of being your single friend for the

night. It might have been fun.

Too late.

And I'm glad.

I have a feeling that this man and I
might have a lot in common.

Which man?

Oh, the man who's calling me right now.

Mags for 13.

14.

Hello, Donna speaking.

Oh, Magnus, is it? I might have guessed.

So, are you all set for tonight?

Oh, well, I'm just in my work clothes.
Why?

Have you been jogging, Magnus? You sound
all out of breath.

Underwear?

Well, I don't know, just a normal plain
old bra.

Black? Mum, he's a pervert. Oh, what do
you think?

Oh, yes.

Oh, but he seems so normal online.

They always do.

Oh, there's the expert.

Oh, I should have known.

Well, Dave looks like he'll get to be my
date after all. You said you wanted to

come, didn't he? He did. He did.

helping me out.

Why? You got yourself into it. I was
trying to be nice.

Well, now you get the chance to actually
be nice.

Well, what if I get someone to take my
place? Oh, like who?

I don't know.

Matt? Yeah, nice try.

Darling, Donna actually needs her
friends at the moment. She's going

tough time. Emma's just moved out. Okay.

Okay, I'll take one for the team.

Oh, if you want to look at it that way.

Look, I was going to talk to you over
lunch until we got hijacked.

Talk about what?

I probably came over a bit hardline
about Ted. I don't want it to sound like

don't care.

Oh, darling, I know you care.

I just want what's best for the family,
that's all.

Yeah, I know, and I want that too.

And part of me... What?

Well, part of me wonders if Ted's mind
is slipping.

Well, he thinks so.

And he's probably the best judge of
that.

Yeah, but then I think, you know, if
you're innocent until proven guilty,

you should be capable until proven
otherwise?

Actually, it's a risk. That's all I'm
saying.

Yeah, well, I don't know what the answer
is, but right now I need to get Ruby

ready for a nap, then you need to get
back to work, so I'll see you tonight.

Oi, so this boat... Again with the boat.

I'm just asking, once it's finished, are
you going to go, like, fishing and

stuff?

Yeah, that was the plan.

All right, well, I wouldn't mind tagging
along.

I don't mind a bit of fishing.

Well, if I ever get it finished, you
can.

You don't mind me talking about any of
this, do you?

Actually, no, I don't. It's good for me
to talk and get closer to someone.

Cool. And you know you can trust me,
100%. It's all in the vault.

Yeah, I know. I wouldn't have invited
you in if I didn't.

You know, months ago when you were sort
of making the moves on me and you opened

up and took a real risk and showed me
the real you.

You had to bring that up.

Why not?

It was my lame attempt to impress you.
It was sort of embarrassing there.

No, it's not. I mean, I've just been a
completely open book with you today, the

way you were when you had feelings for
me.

Well, fair's fair, I suppose. I'm just
glad you shut it down or, you know, we'd

never be hanging out like this.

Wouldn't we?

No, you've been stupid enough to say
yes. You'd totally be sick of me by now

and, you know, lucky I don't think of
you that way anymore.

It's a relief. Yeah, you're sort of like
a bloke.

One of the boys.

Yeah. Um, you right with this?

Where are you going?

Home. I'll see you tomorrow.

Well, I'll just pack all this stuff up
myself then.

All right.

Here we go. It's locked up and parked.

Okay, well, you could always just leave
the keys in the shed where you normally

hang them.

Right, right.

Guys, now, if everything's okay with
Frankie?

Yeah, as far as I know, why?

She's acting weird.

How do you mean?

Hot and cold. One minute she's easy as,
and the next she's glammed up or just

gone. Really?

Right, and how long have you been
noticing this weirdness?

For a fair while now, but I reckon it's
getting worse.

Does it seem to happen more often when
you two are alone together?

What?

What, you reckon it's...

It's me. I'm doing something to freak
her out. Oh, you're probably right. What

though? I mean, no, it's not me. I'm the
same as I always am, aren't I?

Well, maybe she'd feel more relaxed if
you gave her some sort of sign that you

like her.

I do like her. She's cool. We're really
good mates.

Okay, subtlety obviously isn't working.
I'm going to give it to you. Oh, no,

Matt.

I reckon Frankie's totally into you.

Oh. Nah, not two.

I asked her and she said no. It wasn't
going to happen.

Well, what can I say?

Check the pickle.

Hey!

Right, well, I'm going to sort this out.

What am I

doing? I don't... Yep, OK.

Sweet.

That's classic.

She's not even home.

Hey,

what are you doing here?

Hey, Frankie, that's a good question.

Okay, I was over talking to Matt and
Julie earlier before, and your name kind

got mentioned, and I said how I thought
something might be up, and then Matt

said something that totally didn't make
sense, and Julie was like, Matt, but

like in a kind of warning way. And so I
thought I'd come over here and ask you

myself.

What?

Thought I might be doing something, was
maybe getting on your nerves. And then

maybe, and this was Matt's theory, that
I could be wrong. And it's like the

total opposite to that.

Maybe we should go inside.

Yep.

I'm going to make an idiot of myself.
I'd rather do it without the whole world

watching. You're not making an idiot out
of yourself.

Before you say anything, you know how
before I said you were one of the

I don't really think that. I think
that's a stupid thing to say. I actually

think it's true.

Really pretty.

Yep.

Thanks. Not too late to change places,
Ted.

Oh, come on, it'll be fun.

Yeah? Those single ladies won't know
their luck when you show up.

An A -grade specimen with all your own
teeth and hair.

Ta -da!

Surprise! The door was open, so I
thought I'd just swing by and grab my

didn't trust his shelf on his own. Just
checking.

I was just about to leave. Okay, then.
Let's go.

Hey, what if one of these singles puts
the hard word on me? One of them? I'm

betting most of them will.

Look, I'm feeling really uncomfortable
about this. Why aren't you?

Because you're doing a good thing for a
good friend.

Yeah? Well, you better make it up to me.

You bet I will.

Now go get him, tiger.

I could be a fly on the wall at that.

So Popeye later would do a little spy?

No solo singles allowed. I'd need a
partner.

They wouldn't turn you away.

No, really. I'm happy to be here with my
daughter and my dad.

I agree.

It's much better that you're here.

Wait, wait.

Yep. What if one of us needs to leave in
a hurry?

Well, I'm happy to not even go in the
first place. No, I want to go in.

It's just, um... What?

What if some desperate single throws
himself at me and won't take no for an

answer? Isn't that what you want?

I suppose so.

But still, shouldn't we have a signal, a
safety sign to say, I want to get out

of here? Okay, okay, what's the signal?

Well, that's one way to scare off
unwanted attention.

All right, well, you come up with a
signal then.

Okay. This means let's get out of here,
okay?

Okay.

Stay close, at least at first.

Okay. Okay.

Stop. What?

Your wedding ring. Aren't you going to
take it off?

Look, I've agreed to come. I'm here and
I'm ready to go in, but I'm not going to

take my wedding ring off. All right,
don't get in a tease about it. I'll just

say that I'm separated, okay? Is that
all right with you?

Yeah. That's good.

Okay, well, just get it over with.

Good morning.

Ladies.

Hello there, stranger.

Hi. I'm Bethany. And I'm Sue.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

Yeah, pleasure to meet you too.

And your name is?

Dave Rafferty.

Rafferty. Dave. Dave Rafferty.

Lovely to have you here, Dave.

The more the merrier.

Lovely to have you two. I mean, meet you
two, Beverly.

And you, and... Oh, hello.

And all of you.

I'm sorry, I didn't quite catch that.
You said your name was... Well,

this may be one of me top five greatest
days ever.

Would it be other four?

I don't know.

Actually, I can't think of any other day
that comes even close to this one.

When I woke up this morning, I had no
idea it was going to end up like this. I

mean, I had no idea.

Me neither.

I've been kind of hoping for a while.

I've given up hoping.

I was beyond hope. I was hopeless.

You're not worried about us working
together?

No, not at all, are you?

I suppose if I am, it hasn't stopped me.

I'm glad to hear it.

No, it'll be cool. We'll be cool.

This is awesome. I could die now.

I could die.

Don't do that.

Don't do that? I think I need you for
another half hour at least. I can give

another half hour. You know, if you
like.

There you go.

Ah.

Do you think it'd be wrong to send David
a text to get a report?

Oh, you could try.

Nah. Nah, nah. I'll wait till he gets
home.

Why don't you get dressed up and go
mingle?

Oh. No, don't be silly. Too late now.

No, it's only just started.

Ruby's asleep.

Why wouldn't you go out if that's what
you want to do? Dad, it's fine.

No, tell me.

Why wouldn't you?

Please don't make me sad.

It'll do you good.

I can't trust myself.

And you can't trust me either.

And that, I'm afraid, is the sad truth,
isn't it?

Chances are, Ed, it's not going to get
any better.

I don't know that for sure.

Love you being in denial.

help me you do understand that don't you

but

you're giving up on life doesn't help
either

So, where were we?

I've only had a good night.

Maybe we should get out of here. Find
some quiet place where we can talk.

I'm fine, thanks.

For now, I'm really enjoying the Swiss.

Hello, I'm Donna.

Gunter. Oh, that's an interesting name.

Look, sorry to be abrupt, but you're not
my type.

Well, that's done with the bonus.

Look, don't get me wrong. You're slim,
which I like.

But, uh, you're not blonde.

You're really single.

Excuse me.

Hi.

You're a bit late.

Sorry? Look, cards on the table. I like
what I see.

Okay. And if you feel the same way,
maybe we could make this thing happen.

What thing is that? Oh,

surprise! You two know each other.

A little.

What are you doing here?

Am I wasting my time?

Yes, yes.

I was dying of curiosity, so I thought
I'd hop by.

Don't get me wrong, I'm relieved to see
you, but to have a room... No, no, no,

we're trying out a new babysitter.

Emma, move next door. Good evening.

All right, great.

Dad and I peered the air.

You were right.

Things have changed.

Well, it's fixed then.

Thank you for taking it.

She had a bit of a shock, really.

I'll think about it, thanks for telling
me.

Yeah.

See you later, Tula.

What's up? What's happened?

Tula's selling the shop.

She said the flower business is too
demanding for her, so she's looking for

something else.

Right. Wow.

Yeah. She's given me a first chance at
buying it.

Said she'd do me a good deal.

So you're going to think about it?

I don't think I'm ready for that step
yet.

Well, the new owners might give you a
job.

Yeah, they might, but probably not.

I'm so sorry, honey.

Well,

at least one of us is still working.

Yeah.

What are you doing here?

Well, I live here, don't I?

Oh.

So what happened?

She turned your way?

No. Details, mate. We want them.

Don't be stupid.

So... So... I didn't go. I chickened
out.

Yeah, right.

Well, if you're not going to give us any
details, I'm just going to have to call

Frankie. Okay, all right. All right.

I saw her and...

She said yes. Yeah, it's got to end.

Oh, the drought has finally broken. Oi,
take it easy.

I told you she had the hots for you. So
we'll ask again.

What are you doing here?

I left. He was asleep.

No.

Yeah, class act.

What? What is she going to think when
she wakes up and you've just bolted? I

don't know. I couldn't sleep.

Looking at her, she's so freaking
beautiful. I just lost it.

I mean, what am I going to say to her
now?

How about, thanks for that. Can we go
again? Oi, watch it.

I just... Why me?

You know?

I don't know. I just don't believe it.
She's going to wake up in the morning

she's going to regret it. I just... I
know.

You don't know.

And maybe now you never will.

Kobe?

Kobe.

She's still sleeping beautifully.

I might pop the kettle on, do you want
one?

Ted?

Hmm?

Copper? No, no.

I'm just going to duck out for a bit.
You'll be okay here with Ruby?

Yeah, of course.

I've begun to think

that nobody ever found love at these
things.

Looking at those two...

Phil might be wrong.

They do have a certain chemistry.

They do?

I'm done.

Donna.

Mind if I turn in?

There you go. Nothing more than a waltz,
okay?

Life won't give up on us Even if the

skies get rough We got a lot

to learn God knows we're worth it

I had a chance there with Frankie for a
while, but I...

I stepped aside so my young nephew could
have a crack. You've never had a hot

boot? Matty, you might have another
chance, seeing as Kobe's already

course he hasn't. Well, it's not like
her to be late.

Man, what if he's right? What if she's
quit to avoid me? Morning, Frankie. Hey,

sorry, Dave. I slept in. Did you have a
big night, did you?

Hey, guys, can we get the stuff in the
van?

Yeah. Hi.

Um, can we... Hi.

They were already on to us.

Yeah, we'll talk about that later. Um,
what...

I want to know why you weren't there
when I woke up.

Yeah, I'm sorry about that. I couldn't
sleep and I didn't want to wake you.

Thanks for the drawing.

It's beautiful.

Yeah, that.

Nothing.

If you want to pretend like none of this
happened, I can do that.

Is that what you want?

Isn't that what you want?

No.

Hey,

guys. Any chance of us getting some work
done today?

Yeah, if we're on our boat.

Maybe being unemployed won't be so bad.
I mean, if Reda's happy to earn, then I

guess I get to spend all day in my PJs
living the dream.

How long do you think Reda would give
you with that?

Oh, she loves me. As long as I'm happy,
she's happy.

Get something?

Not exactly.

I've been thinking about this for a
while, and you know how they say that

crisis is really an opportunity?

Who said that?

People say that. Yeah, well, I've been
working at mostly interiors for long

enough now to know that I'm never going
to be anything more than their

receptionist. What's your point? I
called them, and I resigned.

Honey, you do remember I'm out of a job.
Yeah, that's why now's the perfect

time. It's the worst I'll ever... Look,
I was unhappy at work, you were unhappy

at work. Let's take control of our
lives. And do what exactly?

Buy a flower shop.

Exactly. Run our own business.

How? We'd have to borrow a ton of cash.

So people do.

Yeah, I'd be into it. You've got a job.

As a waitress. With my mum. Yeah, and we
were so great at the shop, working as a

team. Yeah, and I've always had this
dream of running one of those funky

garden shops. They are so cool. See, I
would love to run one of those. You've

totally got the design eye for it. And
you've studied plants, and you're the

expert on flowers, and we really
couldn't do this without you.

Okay, I want to say it. How much did
Tula want for the business?

I don't know exactly.

So call us. Find out.

Sometimes it takes a bit of persuasion
to move in the same direction as our

friends and family.

And other times, we're so in sync, it's
hard to imagine ever being out of step.

Falling back into step is not always a
dance for joy.

Sometimes, accepting a sad truth is the
only way forward.
