Our choices in life start out so simple.

Which one?

If only they stayed that way.

Go on, you do it.

Dinner's about half an hour away. You hungry, Dad?

Not especially.

Which head? Good girl.

That's it.

Kobe?

Frankie. Any news?

You could always try to call him again.

Already left ten messages.

Should have stopped him when I had the chance.

Oh, darling, you didn't know he was saying goodbye.

I had a feeling that something was up. Not that he was going to shoot through.

Jules, I took my eye off the ball. Yeah, because of me losing the plot and

freaking poor Cooper out. It's no one's fault. And Cooper's fine.

Let's just put it behind us.

Look, I'd better put this one into a bath.

Come on, love.

Thanks, Dad.

What are we going to do about him?

He seems fine.

He's just covering, can't you tell? I don't know, Jules. One crisis at a time.

Kobe is not silly enough to jeopardise his bail.

Trust me.

This is a mistake. I'm not your mate.

Okay, fair enough.

It's all turned to crap and it's your fault.

It's my fault. How do you figure that?

Because you seized on me girlfriend, you prick.

Okay. Okay.

You all right? It's my fault. Don't just tell me what I want to hear. Fix it.

Walk away or I'm going to call the cops.

You're going to be in worse trouble than you already are.

Is that what you want?

Why did you have to go and stone everything up?

Things were good.

I warned you.

Go to hell.

How can you tell good choices from bad ones?

Police, please.

Rick!

Well, the consequences are usually a pretty good indication.

G'day. I'd like to talk to Kobe Jennings. Oh, he's not here.

No one to be back?

Well, he shouldn't be long.

What's up?

They're looking for Kobe.

Oh, he's gone to pick up some dinner.

Pizza, yeah?

Yeah. Yeah.

So, you're expecting him home?

Yeah, any time now.

Well, anything?

Tell him we've got a warrant for his arrest.

A warrant? Why?

He's broken his bowel conditions.

Cobes.

Tell him to report to the station.

He'll be better off if he comes of his own accord. Okay, no problem. Yeah,

you, officers.

Ah, dig yourself in deeper, won't you, Cobes? I swear he has a self -destruct

button. He's a Jennings, mate. We get him fit at a berth.

Look, I can't hang around. I've got to go down to the hospital and see Jim.

If you see Cobes... I'll hold time and make him watch kids' TV till you get

back.

Okay, Matt, well, let me know if you get on to him.

Okay, cheers.

What's the boy thinking of?

It's like he wants to go to prison.

I'm going to go look for him. Really?

Yeah, well, if he broke his bail conditions, he's probably still near

He kind of got too far.

It's a noodle in a haystack.

I can't do nothing.

I won't be late, all right?

Dear, dear, dear. What are you doing?

I finished.

We've only eaten anything.

I told you I wasn't hungry.

Dad, I know you're upset about what happened.

I'm dealing with it. How?

I'm dropping out of Great Mates.

Why? Look, Cooper needs someone dependable and safe.

And I can't guarantee that anymore.

You are dependable.

Sweetheart, I know how all of this scares you. But I'm not going to take

chances.

Hey, I'm sorry.

I'm cutting it fine.

No worries.

You're here now.

Yeah. Well, they said I could come in so long as I make it quick.

You didn't have to come in at all if you didn't want to. I want to.

And tomorrow, I'll come earlier.

Promise.

Doing all right?

Yeah.

Top of the world, mate.

I'd go dancing, but...

Already in my PJs.

Going down to clubs in your PJs.

You might start a new trend.

Hey, there's something I need to tell you.

I've signed the hospital's NFR consent.

If I stop breathing, I don't want them to resuscitate me.

Are you sure that's what you want?

When it's my time, it's my time.

I've had a good innings.

Still no word?

So what's the plan for today?

No plan.

Matt's waiting in Jake's place just in case he shows.

Well, I gave clear instructions on that point.

And I'll be here all day just keeping an eye out.

Well, we've got to face facts that there's every chance he's not coming

Not now that he knows what's waiting for him.

You reckon we shouldn't have left messages about Warren?

No, it's best he knows what he's walking into.

He's still a bloody idiot, though. The longer he stays away, the worse it's

going to get.

There is somewhere he might have gone, but you won't like it.

Tom, you already thought about it? Yeah, Matt tried. No go.

And you believe that? It's not something Tom would lie about. He doesn't want

Kirby to do time. He knows running's not going to help.

So we're back where we started with, with nothing.

Well, let's not give up hope.

Okay?

Okay.

All I'm saying is with a small space, bright colours every time, right? Well,

depends how small is small.

How small is small. What does that mean?

You guys good to go?

Yeah, totally. I'm just saying, let's see Colleen's place, then talk colour.

Yeah, plus find out what she does. She said she works from home. I bet she does

something boring.

Come home.

Yeah, you've seen her. I bet she's into internet sales.

Yeah, I'm thinking phone surveys.

Or insurance. I bet she does insurance.

Tantric sex.

I'm sorry?

I'm a sex therapist.

Come through.

So, here is the space.

Oh, yeah, good size.

No kidding.

It's what you do with it that counts.

So I want to run workshops.

Right. Four or five couples at a time.

Doing what exactly?

Tantric therapy. So exploring sex and sensuality.

Oh. Like an orgy. Carbo.

Sorry. Have you heard of tantra before?

I have heard of it. It's all about holding back, isn't it? Like touching

visualizing and then delaying the release.

Exactly. Why would you want to hold back?

So, I'm thinking you want privacy screens, soft mats, lots of cushions.

Or washable.

Nick, I know this stuff can be a bit confronting, but some people do have

with sex.

No, no issues here. I'm good. Oh, I'm sure. And you seem like a passionate

I'm guessing it's all about the destination rather than the journey.

I'm just sensing that you might be a bit of a rusher.

No way. I'm Greek.

So, um, I was thinking... You all right, mate?

Oh, yeah, just drifted off.

Yeah, this Kirby thing's distracting us all.

Well, it's not just that.

It's Jim. You know, I don't know how much longer he's got.

He gave consent for the hospital not to resuscitate him.

Some people don't want to delay the inevitable.

I don't blame him.

He's just made it feel real and final.

Yeah, well, I guess all you can do is keep visiting him.

Make sure he knows you're going to be around to help him through. I'll see him

again tonight.

I'm sure he appreciates it probably more than you know.

Akiva? Is Ted home?

Ted, I've got a visitor.

Why don't you want to be my mate anymore?

It's the truth.

They don't waste any time, do they?

Well, either do you, Dad.

I don't care what happened.

You're fine now.

I'll leave you to it.

Tell him he's being stupid.

Well, Cooper, you can still be friends without great mates.

Exactly. And they'll pair you up with another mate. I don't want another mate.

Look, I know it's hard to understand.

But it's you I'm thinking of, believe me.

I can look after myself.

Come on, you're meant to take me to the skate park today.

Maybe we should give it a miss this time.

Dad, you can walk to the skate park, surely.

Well, I was heading somewhere else, actually.

Well, can we go there on the way?

OK, OK, tell you what.

If Julie comes with us, we can all walk to the skate park.

What do you say?

Kirby, at long bloody last... No, no, no, Dave, Dave, it's Manny.

Are you with him?

No, no, I just found his phone.

Where? In his room. He left it here.

What, so he hasn't got any of our messages?

Yeah, he doesn't know about the warrant.

Well, that's it then. He really wants to cut himself off, doesn't he?

Well, he could have just left it in the rush.

Yeah, either that or he doesn't give it enough.

Thanks, we'll see you soon.

If someone chooses to feel destruct...

There's not much anyone can do about it.

So, I was thinking we should stick with earth colours.

Reds, browns, ochres, cream.

Yeah, sounds good to me. Cover?

Sorry.

What's with this attention to business anyway?

I mean, it seems like new age crap to me.

Why? What does it say?

What you would say.

It's all about visualising, communicating and delaying. And

delaying. Yes.

I mean, I thought getting to the end was the whole point.

Colleen really got to you, didn't she, calling you a rusher? I can take more

time. And you often do, for five minutes.

I can slow it down even more if you like.

Of course you can.

Oh, Dad.

You said it was just a little detour.

Yes, and we're here.

Hmm?

What's this?

It's an aged care facility.

What?

What are we doing here?

Well, I thought it might be a nice place to live, so I made an appointment to

have a look around.

Oh, you're not serious.

Well, I told you I was on the way somewhere, so I thought we might as well

come and see it together.

Why would you want to live here?

I'm not sure that I do yet.

I'll have to check it out first.

But you've already got a good house. Exactly.

Come on, we're going to the skate park. No, look, we're here now. It won't take

long. Dad, you've made your point. We're not doing this now. We'll talk about it

later. Okay.

Can't we just spring it on me like that? And with Cooper in tow, I'll be bloody

ridiculous anyway.

What is?

What do you think?

Still no word on Kobe, I take it. Don't change the subject.

I know how you feel, but there's no point in harping on about it.

I shouldn't have taken you there. Or Cooper.

You upset him. Cooper was fine.

Dave, back me up.

Don't bring Dave into it. He's got enough on his mind. No, it's okay.

It does feel a bit... premature attack.

Not to me.

I'm just making my own choices while I still can.

How can you be so offhand about all this?

I'm making a practical decision.

You're turning it into an emotional one. How am I meant to not be emotional when

my father is talking about turning himself over to a nursing home? Aged

facility.

And none of us can change what's going on. So let's just acknowledge that and

what we can.

We can look after you here.

I reschedule my tour of the facility for tomorrow.

You can come if you like. Dad, no.

I'm not asking for your permission, Julie.

Frankie?

Frankie, what do you want?

Don't say all my fault. You've already said it. Besides, it's not true.

Come on.

Maybe he's got to take some blame here.

I don't know. I could have handled things better.

You mean gotten back together with him, because that's the only thing that would

have made a difference.

What do we do now?

Not much. Wait until the cops have nabbed him.

It's not a waste. It's a stupid, pointless waste.

Well, it's no use all of us sitting around moping.

Where are you going?

I'm going to get changed and go and see Jim.

How's he doing?

I wish I could say he's doing okay.

I'm sorry, Jake.

Yeah, thanks, Frank.

Where do you think he is?

Toby? Well, I reckon he is a thousand k's away by now.

Bye.

Bye.

Bye. Bye.

Kirby!

What the hell are you running for?

Run!

Kirby!

You're gonna call the cops, right?

Yeah,

okay. Thanks, Pete. Well, let me know if you hear anything.

Anything? No sign.

I guess that means you guys got nothing?

We checked as many streets near the canal as we could. Yeah, I put a call

some cabbie mates, but they're putting a description over the radio.

Got nothing yet.

At least he came back. That probably means on some level he wants to get

Yeah, but if the cops catch him, they're going to put him away.

Did he take anything from his room?

I don't think we can see.

Well, then we wait.

Hopefully he drops in again.

I don't know the number.

Hello?

Speaking.

Uh... Thanks for letting me know.

Yeah.

I'll get there as soon as I can.

Well? Is it Kobe?

No, it's Jim.

Jim just passed away.

Oh, man.

Jake, I'm so sorry.

I was meant to be there. I should have been there.

Now Kirby's choices were impacting others.

And their effects will be felt for a lifetime.

I tried so hard to give you love.

I tried so hard to give you love.

I'm a tumbler. I'm a seeker.

I'm a roller to let me fade.

I'm a drinker. I'm a wanderer. I'm a... You'll be all right.

I know it's not easy.

Take your time.

Thanks.

He talked about you a lot.

Even tonight he said how proud he was.

Anyway, I'll leave you to it.

If I ever let you down I tried so hard

to give you love I tried so

hard to give you love

You scared the crap out of me. I'm sorry.

I knocked.

I just... You weren't here.

Yeah, that's why we were looking for you, you jerk.

Sorry.

You... You're going to have to turn yourself in before this gets any worse.

no, I can't.

You can't. I can't. You tell them that you take responsibility for your action.

I'm not going inside, Frank.

Nothing you can say is going to change my mind.

And why are you here?

Because I want you to come with me. You should come with me.

No, no, Coby. It's just you and me. Don't you remember how good that was?

Yeah, it was great, but I can't.

Okay, that's cool. I just thought I'd... Why don't you stay here the night?

Just one night.

You can leave here first thing in the morning.

Where else are you going to go?

You won't call the cops?

Only if you want me to.

You've got to do one thing, though.

What? Have a shower.

Bad? Really bad.

You know where it is.

Hey, what were you looking for at Jake's house?

My phone.

Why?

It's pictures you want.

T.

What do you think?

This one or this one?

Okay, aren't they the same colour?

No. No.

This one is salmon pink and this one is coral pink.

No, wait. This one is salmon pink and this one is the coral pink.

Ah. Okay, what colour are these?

They're pink.

And it's almost midnight.

Wow, really?

Okay, my brain has shut down. Should we just call it a night? I mean, we've got

plenty of options to show her.

Yeah, an early night sounds good.

And I wouldn't mind trying out some of his tantric bidot.

Thanks for sharing. I thought it was new age bull.

Well, that's if it's okay.

You know, taking your time to enjoy yourselves.

Sensual and slow.

Like a tortoise.

Because nothing says sexy like two tortoises doing it.

Honey, what about the whole delaying thing?

You know, they say it's mind -blowing when you finally get there.

And you know what else they say? I'm still here.

As long as Daddy wins.

Okay, I'm going to make a tea and you guys have fun.

Hope you're not playing go to sleep tonight.

Retta wants a glass of water.

What happened to the tortoise?

It turns out, the slower he goes, the faster he gets there.

It's very confusing.

That's the cops, isn't it?

You called them, didn't you?

I did make a call, but I called Dave.

Why?

Why did you do that? Just listen to what he has to say.

Where have you been?

Nowhere. I just drove around and slept in my ute.

Head to visit the Duncan.

And where are you going to go?

Interstate? Yeah, probably.

All right.

What do you do for money?

I don't know. I'll sort something out. Yeah, well, you'll have to sort

out because you'll need a different car.

They'll be looking for you. Why don't you just call the cops? I mean, that's

what you're going to do anyway, isn't it? No, mate, you need to care enough

about yourself to do the right thing. I'm not going to force you to stay.

What, so I can just go then? Can I?

But, Povey, just listen.

No, but I want you to know that your choice affects all of us, not just you.

who do they affect? Everyone.

Frankie, Matt, and as for Jake... Go ahead.

Well, you think you don't matter. You think you can run away and our lives

carry on like they always have. Well, that's not going to be the case. Okay,

this isn't about Jake's pay or money. It's not about the money. It's you,

You need to value yourself.

I've been there. When I grew up, I was moved from foster family to foster

family. And every time I was moved on, it was more proof that I didn't matter

until I realised that was all in my head.

And I finally saw that people had faith in me. Well, we've got faith in you,

Kirby. We want to help you.

But we can't if you keep on running.

We can't.

I'd made my case.

Now we just had to hope that Kirby would make the right choice.

for himself.

Clover, are you there?

Yeah, OK, thanks, Frankie.

Thanks for letting me know.

Cheers.

Kirby's gone.

Next time we see him, he'll probably be in prison.

You should stay, love.

Yeah, do you want me to?

No, there's not much either of us can do, to be perfectly honest.

Well, I could take some work off your plate.

No, I can handle it, Jules.

You go.

You sure?

Yeah, it's important.

I think so.

Oh, these.

Definitely. That's perfect.

Good choice.

Now, what about plans?

Oh, I've made a list of options. All strongly centered.

I take it you're not so struck by my cacti.

No, I think they're fun.

Well, Emma, you're the plan expert.

I guess it depends what mood you're trying to set.

What do you mean?

Well, how much you want to relax people.

Why do you don't find large penis shapes relaxing?

No. Oh, it's all just a bit of fun.

Things can be fun, you know.

I know.

Hey, maybe I should come to one of my classes and see what it's all about.

Maybe. Have you got a partner you can bring?

Actually, I'm single.

Blokes run a mile when they hear what I do for a living.

So, can we talk about the budget? Yeah, I'd better go open the shop. You let

these guys know which plants you like and I'll get straight on to it. I will.

Thank you.

Can you give me a second?

Yeah, sure.

Emma?

Yeah.

I am sorry if I made you uncomfortable before. That was not my intention.

It's fine, really.

Are you sure?

Positive. Because I know you've just met me and trust is a difficult thing to

develop in certain people more than others.

Okay. And I'm not as frivolous as I may count sometimes.

So if ever you want to talk to anyone about relationships, anything.

I'm fine.

Honestly.

Okay.

So you've seen the gymnasium, computer room, residence lounge and the cinema.

I think that's about it.

Yeah, all very impressive.

Do you have any questions?

Yes.

What sort of medical care do you offer? There's our full -time nursing staff,

plus regular visits by doctors, dentists and other specialists.

24 -hour medical alert.

Are there visiting hours too?

I'm sorry, my daughter's still getting her head around this. I understand.

It's an adjustment for everyone.

I am sorry, I don't mean to be rude.

But Dad knows. I don't think he needs to be here.

He's a very capable man.

Mrs Rafter, we have many healthy, active residents who just want to be part of

our community from age 55.

I'd better show you some ID.

Now, with the costing for the plant... It didn't work.

Pardon? Your tantric bizzo, it did not work.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.

You're sorry. Oh, my God. No, no, that's fine.

All feedback is welcome.

Can I ask you what happened?

Yeah. My daughter turned into a hare.

And I finished in record speed.

Right. Yeah.

It was abnormally fast.

How did you know what to do?

I looked it up on the internet. Oh, well, there's your first problem right

there. So, about this budget. I'm pretty happy to give you some pointers.

How about a demonstration?

Right here, right now? Yes, in the interest of better understanding a

needs. Hey, I really think we should focus on the work.

Oh, don't worry about the work.

I'll go and get the cushions.

Hmm. You ever heard of not mixing business with pleasure?

Rita, her business is pleasure. Look, I am telling you right now, I am not

having a tantric sex class with our client.

There are eight aspects to tantric sex.

The first is to allow yourself to have sexual thoughts.

Then technically I thought of 15 minutes ago.

Now the second aspect is to imagine you're both alone together, initiating a

sexual act.

Okay, so kissing, touching.

Now perhaps see yourselves outdoors in a relaxed setting where you'd naturally

take your time.

So Nick, where are you?

Reda and me are driving down a mountain road in a

convertible Ferrari.

Okay, it's not a car ride.

Okay.

We're on a mountaintop and Reda's wearing a white dress.

Oh, it's romantic.

What are you thinking of?

I was in a park.

For the people?

Yeah, we've just got with your mother. Okay, okay. So, Rita, you're in a white

dress.

What's Nick wearing?

He's in white too.

A white T -shirt, white jeans, tight white jeans.

What happens next?

Rita walks towards me.

I'll take care of that. Just stay with your sexual thoughts.

Her dress is getting wet.

And her body's rot.

Oh, wow.

Oh,

God.

It's gone.

Now we do.

It's okay.

Yeah. Colleen, something's come up. Yeah, something big. Important.

We've got to go.

Bye. We'll check it out later.

It's another six aspects.

Hi. Hi.

Am I disturbing you? No, not at all. Did you forget something?

No, no.

I keep thinking about what you said.

And about trust.

Right.

Um, do you mind if we talk? Oh, not at all. Come on in.

You've got to admit, it's a lovely place.

And the apartment's a good size.

Are you really going to do this?

Well, I've still got enough in the super. I reckon I can afford it.

You've just come out of nowhere, Dad.

For me, too.

I don't see how living here is going to make a difference.

I mean, if it's going to happen... I'd feel better.

These guys are professionals.

Unlike your family, who just love you.

Julie.

Are you sure you're not just punishing yourself for something that you have no

control over?

Well, it's hardly a punishment.

This place is like a resort.

Well, then go to Bali for a week.

You're a lot cheaper.

Come on.

You're all right. There's a lot to offer here.

Think about what you'd be losing.

Ruby adores you.

She'd miss seeing you every day.

I'll only be just down the road.

You look me in the eye and you tell me that this is what you really want.

Where you want to live.

How you want your life to be.

We'll all get used to it soon enough.

What are you doing?

Hey, man.

Um... Dad gave me a choice.

And... I'm taking it.

But, don't... I'm sorry. I'll pay back your bail money every single cent. The

money my dad gave me? Yeah.

You don't know yet?

Hey, know what?

He died last night.

Oh, my God, dude. I'm so sorry. I don't want to hear how sorry you are.

I was out last night looking for your ass and lost the last chance I had to

goodbye to it.

Well, I didn't know. I broke a promise.

It's the only promise I ever made him.

You know what?

Leave. I'm sick of watching you back.

You're a selfish dickhead who only ever chooses to look after himself.

Hey, Jake. Just piss off.

One of my best, I'd say.

Mum, do you think I've trapped issues?

Goodness, where did that come from?

I've been talking about it with our client. She's sort of a counsellor.

Why?

I don't know. I've realised I always choose guys who aren't really there for

You know, that I can't really have.

Remember, David?

Yes. He was nice.

Mm. And still in love with his ex.

Mm.

And then there was Joel.

Yes, he was, um, neat.

He was gay, Mum.

Yes.

So what did your client say?

Well, she just encouraged me to see where it's coming from. You know, fear

whatever. So I can make informed choices.

But you're just a naturally cautious person.

There's nothing wrong with that.

No, except I'm still alone.

Is it upsetting you?

Maybe a little.

Oh, my baby.

We'll do that next time.

Oh, hey, Donna.

Hi. Hi.

Cake. Yes, my homemade pav. Little prezzy for getting your first job.

Oh, thank you.

Can we crack it open? I'm starving.

That's what it's here for.

Okay. Plates.

Honey, maybe we should get dress first.

What for?

Because we have company.

Of course, it doesn't help living with a die -hard

honeymooner.

Darling, you just have to find him, that's all.

Well, it's going to change, Mum.

From now on, I'm choosing to loosen up.

And take more risks.

What are you doing here? I came to work.

Look, Frankie and I got a cupboard. Just take a few days off.

I'll be right.

Look, I saw Kobe.

He was packing stuff into his ute.

So he's gone then?

Not before I blasted him.

Right. With both barrels.

If there was any chance of seeing him, I think I've stuffed it.

I guess that's it.

Dave, you did everything you could, mate.

That's it.

Wish me luck.

On the way to the cop shop, didn't want to stop without saying goodbye.

Sometimes your whole life can feel like a series of wrong choices.

But as long as we make the right one in the end, we might get through okay.

Oh, Chloe. No need to call the cops.

I'm about to save them the trip.

Might as well get used to this. I hear in the clink, the best jobs are in the

laundry. And by jobs, I hope they mean the work kind.

Yeah. Not that I don't appreciate the help, but does Dave know you? Yeah,

Just give him a chance to say goodbye.

Don't leave me too long.

Might change your mind.

Hello, you.

You'll remember this ugly bug, won't you? Eh? Might not see it for a while.

You know, giving yourself up's got to count for something.

Yeah. You'll be out in a jiffy.

Come here.

I'm proud of you.

Oh, come off it.

No, I know how hard this is.

I don't know why you're so good to me.

Got nothing better to do? Yeah, right.

Youse can borrow me a ute if you want. You can take it to work or... Yeah, if

comes to that.

Want me to take you to the station?
