- Nins, it's a wish jar, okay.

I was just putting something
out there into the universe.

- [Nina] A life that's mine.

- I Don't think I should leave.

- It's only six months.

- Yeah. But there's so
much going on with you.

- [Geraldine] So what
have you got for me today?

- [Suitor] I've paired a basic white shirt

with a wide front and mocca loafer.

- Oh, understated. I like that.

This is just a very unfortunate,
isolated incident, okay.

- I've never had brothers and sisters,

and I wish I knew my father better before.

- And now the sex is dead.

Will you marry me?

- I'm pregnant.

- But you have to promise me

you'll tell Billie or
Nina before I leave, okay.

- I've seen Dr. Proudman on the news.

My job is to manage crisis.

Consequently, concerns
about staff behavior

and professionalism have been raised.

If those questions are not addressed,

the public will lose confidence

and you will become a magnet
for disgruntled patients.

A man has come forward claiming

that he and his wife were sent home

with the wrong baby a year and a half ago.

(upbeat music)

(gentle music)

- [Teacher1] Oh no you can't tumble.

Out of the park, that's it.

- [School Child] Hello

- [Teacher] Oh, whoa.

(child screaming)

(Teachers and children chattering)

(gentle music continues)

- [Teacher 2] Hi.
- Hi.

- First day?
- Yes.

- You've been primed for this.

- Yes. It's a bigger day
for me than it's for Zoe.

- Well, the trick of the first day

is not to make a big deal out of it.

Just pick a moment and go.

- That's that part now.

- Oh, she'll be busy
all day. It'll be fun.

Yes, yes.

(Nina chuckling)

I'll send you pictures.

- Thank you.

- Oh, don't you wanna

talk to me?
- Excuse me.

- Can I Take you off.

- Bye Mommy.
- No dear.

Hi Billie.

Are you all right?

- Yes, I'm back. I've dropped
Mick off at the airport

and now I'm home.

I'm moving forward. I've booked a busy day

with a recruiting interview

and I'm not collapsing.

Now, how did you go
dropping Zoe at daycare?

- Um, I'm still here.

- [Billie] Have you seen the internet?

- Why?

- Well, the whole net's
crazy angry with you

about the baby swapping.

- I don't believe we swapped a baby.

- [Billie] No, no. That's right.

It's just an accusation.
Nothing's been proven yet.

- Ah, if you are okay, I'm gonna go now.

- Oh, wait, I'll, I'll
collect Zoe from daycare.

- Thank you. Okay, I've gotta go.

Uh, I just, I wanna have
this moment with her.

- [Billie] Good luck.

(children chattering)

- [Teacher 2] You can just go.

- Can I just kiss her goodbye?

- Oh, don't distress her.

If anything happens, we'll call you.

It doesn't, just go.

You're not abandoning her.

She won't even remember.

(gentle somber music)

(footsteps echoing)

- [Nina] Nets going crazy.

Lots of anger towards the hospital,

accusations of swapped babies.

(upbeat dramatic music)

And that's my face up there.

- We did not swap a baby.

- Well, forgive me,

but you're very quick to say, no, not us.

- I have faith in the
people that I work with

and our system for identifying babies.

Tags for mother and baby are
on a single sheet of plastic.

See.
- So they match.

- They're printed before the baby's born,

and we have them there ready?

- The baby is tagged as soon as it's born.

Then we tag baby and
mother at the same time.

- No child gets mixed up.

- Okay. Well, that sounds good.

But on the night in question,
there were emergencies-

- Who is it that thinks
they have the wrong child?

- Jade and Bradley Clark,

they were diverted to St.
Francis from The Ainsworth.

- Jade.
- Jade would you push?

- It's a big baby with
a compound presentation.

Can we go anywhere?

- Uh, n, n, no, it it'll have to be here.

Can we get Jade some privacy?

- [Doctor 1] I'll grab her that screen.

- Jade, I, I know this is scary
because you don't know us.

But it's gonna be okay.

(ominous music)

Jade gave birth in the
hallway to a daughter.

- [Martin] Yes.

- Attending the birth?

- Leo Taylor was the midwife and me.

- Who tagged the baby.

(Martin and Nina laughing)
- Women were giving birth

side by side.

- It was madness.

- Who tagged the baby?

- I don't remember.

What are you writing?

- Just making notes.

I've asked the clerks to come in today.

- Good. A DNA test will tell
us if there's been an error.

- I'll prep for a DNA test.

- Well, no, I'm not,
I'm not sure about that.

Doing a test makes it
appear we have doubts

about our procedures.

- No, I disagree.

I think it shows that
we have nothing to hide.

I am confident that we
haven't swapped a baby.

We need a test to clear
our names. It matters.

- And if you're wrong?

(ominous music)

- So I have work to do.

(footsteps echoing)

(phone ringing)

- Hello?
- Hey, it's me.

What's the internet saying?

- Mm. Trying to study.

- Yeah, but look, is it bad?

- This latest scandal is a body blow

to public health in
Victoria. (inhaling sharply)

Shit, people are mean.
- What?

- First they drug you, then
they steal your children.

You should all go hang
yourselves. Die St Francis.

- Is that Kim?
- Yeah.

- Should she get the email?
- Did you get the email?

And are you coming tonight?

- [Kim] What? For?

- Jimmy's using the
leftovers from the Taqueria,

last night of tacos.

Uh, please hold.

- I'm going now. I'd like
a kiss goodbye, please.

Sure.

(lips smacking)

- Has he gone?

- Yeah. Why?

- I, um,

well, um,

um.
- Mm, use your words.

- So Jess and I are thinking
of having another child.

- (sighing) Jimmy, you're
thinking about using Jimmy. Ah.

- Well, he's at the top of the list.

- He would love it.

He would love it. I would love it.

We would love to give that to you.

You know, and it, it couldn't come

at a more brilliant timing.

Like, I think it's exactly
what Jimmy needs to,

to jolt him out of the dumps.

Jimmy can be your spoof jockey.

- Well, just hang on a sec.

Like, is there a chance
that this could get weird?

- No way.

You know, except you might

wanna think about Turkey based ringer.

- We're all playing the
same game of Bingo there.

- You should ask Jimmy tonight.

- Wow.

This could be easy than I thought.

- Goodbye caller.

(phone beeping)

(footsteps echoing)
(hospital bustling)

- What's that face?
- What face? There's no face.

- Yes. Face.

- No stop.

Stop it. Stop it.

Chers, You always think
poking works. Stop it.

Gosh.

All right.

Jess and I are gonna ask
Jimmy to father a child.

(Cherie exhaling loudly)

You are doing two reactions here.

- Oh, no. I'm so happy for you.

And I'm worried about Martin.

He thinks he's the man who supplies you

with the magic potion.

- Magic potion. Really?

Can't we just say spoof?
- Spoofs creepy.

- I like spoof.

(Kim laughing) Yeah.

Um. look, if, if it was me
having the baby, I'd consider it.

But Jess is gonna have it. So.

- Well, you will need me
to manage the situation.

- Mm. Thank you.

(Kim and and Cherie laughing)

(footsteps echoing)

- Yeah. Try this.

This will be great for
a recruiting interview.

- Do I have to come?

- God, this will be a good
experience for both of us.

We both need jobs.

- (sighing) I feel sick.
- Look, it's fine

to feel nervous, it's not
fine to let it stop you.

You're young.

You have nothing in your way.

At your stage, attitude is more important

than your experience.

For me, it's a little bit
more complicated. Okay.

Shoulders back, eye contact.

Inhale.

(Brody inhales deeply)

(Billie shushing)

Five minutes.

- Okay, so Proudman Real Estate,

that, that was a family business?

- Yes. My father started that
and then I took over from him.

- And why did you leave?

- I sold it.

- Hmm.

- I guess I thought you'd be older.

- Me?

- Yes.

- Um, and then you went on to
manage a decorating business?

- Sort of a friend and I working together,

styling houses for sale.

- Right. And what happened
to the real estate license?

- Let it go.

- You lost it?

- Let it go.

- Okay. And recently
managing a tour for a band.

- Yes. Uh, my husband's a musician.

- Mm. It's quite a bit
of choppity, changey.

- It's been diverse.

Uh, it's been a colorful career.

- Oh, come on, database.

So how do I get a read on you?

You've, you've done some admin,

is that what you're looking for?

- Well, we can start there. Sure.

- Okay. Let's see.

Um,

compensation claims officer?

- It's not, I'm not
really sure what that is.

- Hmm. Order manager for a
wholesale supply company.

Library training educator.

Oh, no, you need a qualification for that.

- I'm, I'm really good
at learning new things.

- Sure.

- I'm really good

at motivating myself.
- You know what would be great

is if you go away and
think about what it is

that you actually want,

some clear goals, all right?

- Right.

- And in the meantime,
we've got you on file

so we can place you if something comes in.

(documents thudding)

(footsteps echoing)

- We're out of here.
Have you got everything?

- But am I next?
- No, that's it.

(bright whimsical music)

(Martin hissing)

(Martin hissing)

(footsteps echoing)

(Martin clearing throat)

- I need your advice.

- Okay.

- Cherie has proposed to me,

- Marriage?

- So then you know, firstly,

she didn't want to get married

because she thought it would
kill our sexual Mardi Gras.

Now the sex is dead. So let's get married.

I mean, I'm, I'm, I'm...

- Trapped in the logic.
- Yes.

Help me.

- Well,

you've always wanted to marry Cherie.

- Well, yes, but should
anyone marry someone

who doesn't wanna have sex with them?

- I, I dunno.

It's a curve ball.

(whimsical music continues)

- Oh, Yes.

So you agree with me?

I thought this was one of those times

where I lack the emotional intelligence

to understand the bleeding obvious.

- No, it's, it's a definite curve ball.

- Yeah, no, it's, that's

reassuring.

But that's not.

- [Nina] Jade, baby swap.

(Martin sighing)

(footsteps echoing)
(ominous music)

- It's a thought that
won't go away, isn't it?

- Is there something in particular

that makes you think
that Millie's not yours?

- Right from the beginning,
the connection wasn't there.

- [Jade] You weren't ready to be a dad.

- [Bradley] It wasn't that though?

- We used to joke that
maybe we'd brought home

the wrong baby, but...

- And these stories started
happening on the web

about you guys here throwing babies.

- Well, that wasn't a baby.

- [Bradley] I Can't
stop thinking about it.

- It can take time to bond with a child.

- We'd like to get a test done to be sure.

(somber music)

(paper rustling)

- All right, that's you two done.

- Would you take Millie for some water?

I've left her sippy cup

in the car.
- Yeah.

- There's a drinking
fountain Just in the hallway

if you like.

(plastic rustling)

You haven't said much.

- You told me that you'd had a daughter.

- Yes.

- Millie's my baby.

I don't want a different one.

- But what if this test says-

- She's not mine? She's mine.

- I know it's a horrible thought.

But Jade, if there has
been a breach in procedure,

we can't do nothing.

- What if I don't want the test?

Can I say no?

- We do require both parents consent.

- Can we hold off then
please? Just for a day?

- Sure.

I, I've got the samples. We can wait.

(ominous music)

- No, that's what I was saying.

If we control the medium,
then we control the audience.

Sorry, I'll have to call you back.

- You'll be happy to know that
Jade doesn't want the test.

- W, why would I be happy?

- Well, you said you didn't
want us to do the test.

- No, that's not

what I was saying, I-
- I think we should

do the test

for them.

- Even if they don't want it?

- I suppose you wanna say I told you so.

- Sorry. What about?

- I mean, you saw this coming.

You said we'd be a magnet
for disgruntled patients.

You said that. Now it's
happened. So go ahead.

Say I told you so.

- Do you really want me to say that?

Look, I think you're
struggling with the thought

that if the Clarks did
take home the wrong child-

- They didn't.
- No. But if they did,

then that means there's
another couple out there

with the wrong child.

And that would be tragic.

(Nina sighing)

- You might not think much of this team.

- What I think of you as irrelevant.

- That's right. Because it's
all business to you, isn't it?

- What else?

What do you-
- All you seem

to care about is managing the narrative.

(footsteps echoing)

(phone ringing)

- Nina.

- [Nina] Hello.

- [Will] Someday you're having.

New life of public health. Huh?

- I don't know why I'm calling
you of all my siblings.

You seemed like the right one.

- Well, that's nice,

um, but if you're thinking
about suing for defamation.

- I'm not.
- Well, I'm not saying

that you shouldn't, but-
- No, I'm not calling

for legal advice.
- Yeah. It gets messy.

I become morally liable for
the result. It's not my area.

- I don't want legal advice.

- This is one of those moments

where I should have just said
something supportive. Right?

- That would've been nice.

- Sorry, (chuckling)

um, working on it.

Um.

What, what do you want?

- Brotherly advice.

There's hate all over
the media. The internet.

- For the hospital.

- I'm the face of it. It
just feels so personal.

- No, no, no, no. Take
the emotion out of it.

- [Nina] How?

- Well,

you're a surgeon. Be surgical.

- Hang on, I've just,
I've just got a message

from Zoe's daycare.

- Is something wrong?

- No, no.

No, she's, she's been having
a great morning playing

and there's a pic.

(gentle music)

- [Will] What's wrong, Nina?

- (crying) She's happy, she's playing.

I'm just,

I'm a mess because I love her so much.

I better go.

- [Will] Okay. All right. Bye.

(birds chirping)
(footsteps echoing)

(keys jingling)
(footsteps echoing)

(door rattling)

- Marjorie.

(door slamming)

Marjorie.

(Geraldine sighing)

(keys clinking)

(footsteps echoing)
(Geraldine yawning)

(door buzzer buzzing)
Oh!

(upbeat bright music)

(door clacking)

(door slamming)

(phone ringing)

- Hello?

- [Suitor] Did you get them?

- Them? What are they?

- [Suitor] Open the box.

- Is it safe?
- Of course.

(packaging rustling)

- Oh, chocolate raspberries. Thank you.

- You're welcome.
- Mm.

- We should meet sometime.

- Gosh.

- [Suitor] Or is this as far as it goes?

- No, I have to think about it.

- [Suitor] That's fair.

- Well, if we're going to talk,

I better put the kettle on.

- [Suitor] Are we going to talk?

- Oh yeah.

(phone ringing)

- Robson Wing. Hello.

- [Lillian] Hello. It's
Nina Proudman there?

- Yeah. Just a sec. It's for you.

- Nina Proudman.

- [Lillian] Hello, I'm Lillian Howe.

I wonder if you could
comment on the allegations

of a breach of hospital
procedure at St. Francis?

- Are you a journalist, Lillian?

- [Lillian] Yes, I am.

- I'm sorry, but I can't
- It's kind of messed up.

It speaks to people's greatest
fears about hospitals.

Wouldn't you agree?

- We're not commenting at this time,

the investigation into the rumors-

- [Lillian] There is
an investigation then?

- St. Francis takes this
matter very seriously.

And, and if, if we have to.
- Yes?

- Sorry, I have to go.

(phone rattling)

Well, from this point on,

we have to be really careful about.

(phone ringing)

- It's them again. More reporters.

- We can't not answer it.
It could be a patient.

- Robson wing. Hello.

- [Jodie] Hello. I was hoping
to speak to Nina Proudman.

- What's the call about?

- [Jodie] It's personal.

- Can I take a message?

- [Jodie] Yeah. My name is Jodie Ellis.

I'd like to arrange a meeting.

- An appointment?

- [Jodie] Or maybe I
should make an appointment.

Yes. I'll make an appointment.

- Friday at 10.

- [Jodie] Thank you.

- Okay, Dr. Proudman will see you then.

- Jodie Ellis. Why is that name familiar?

(ominous music)

- Oh, that's an amazing tower.

You are gotta make another one.

We're gonna make so many.

- Hi.
- Hey, look.

- Hi. You have been busy.

- Yeah. These are the fairy princesses.

Princess Zoe

and Princess Brody waiting
for their true loves.

- I see.

- [Brody] And these guys,

these guys are the handsome princess

who've come to save them.

- Oh, wait, oh we put him out.

- Well done.
- Well, real princesses

can be very boring, they
can't have a career.

They hardly ever get to wear a tulle.

- They travel a lot and see the world.

- Well, these ones are stuck in a tower.

Maybe the princesses
could save each other.

- Yeah, but they're trapped.
That's kind of the whole point.

- Okay, well I think it's
bath time for you, pumpkin.

Good girl.

(footsteps echoing)

- All right, just a few quick
words then before you all go.

Thank you all for being
part of the taco story.

My first test audience,

my last punters.

And Jess, of course,

for making sure the whole
thing ran smoothly, thank you.

- [Geraldine] Darling.

- Cheers.
- What are doing out here?

- I'm just quarantining myself
so I don't infect anyone.

A recruiter pulled me apart today.

It's true.

I've got this, this handful of pieces

that won't make up a whole.

I'm sick of this patchwork life, Mom.

- Guys.
- Oh, come.

- Kim, is there something you wanna ask?

- What, what, what, what is it?

- Um, yeah but there's
a lot of people here.

- Yeah, yeah. Go for it.

(Kim and Jess whispering)

- All right,

Um, with the Taqueria closing,

we thought it was a good time
for us to revisit our idea

to have a baby.

(group cheering)
- Outside to the downside.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- Jess' gonna have it.

And we've just been discussing
candidates to play Dad.

- (laughing) Excellent. Excellent.

Ask away.

I'm prepared to say yes.
- And if I was Jess,

I would think about who I wanted.

- [Martin] Absolutely.

- Too subtle.
- They don't want you.

- Rubbish.

- I'm pretty sure, right?
- Positive.

- I thought I, I had the, the, the lock.

Is that the right expression?
- No one's got the lock.

- Well, who then?

- I mean, who out of your
wide circle of friends

have you deemed, you know, eligible to be.

- Interesting?

- (laughing) What?

- You're it?

- Oh.

Did you know about this?

- Yeah.
- She totally pimped you.

- Good choice.
- Yeah,

let's celebrate.
- Do I have an opinion here?

- You, you'll do it, won't you, Jimmy?

- Of course he will.
- I would just like

to have a chat in private.

- Oh, shit.

- Why wouldn't you say yes?
- Jimmy.

- In private.

- In your face.

(bag thudding)

(footsteps echoing)

- Sorry, Jim.

- Me too. I think we should
have picked to better moment.

- Yeah. Yeah. We should go.

- [Jess] Yep.
- No, you,

you don't have to go.
- No, no, no, no.

I'm, we're going anyway.

Sorry everyone. It's
really embarrassing. Sorry.

- No, don't be, no.
- I'm really sorry.

- Stay, please.

Look.

(door thudding)

(Jimmy sighing)

(footsteps pattering)

- [Nina] She's asleep.

- [Brody] I'm gonna go to bed too, okay.

- Okay.

(toys rattling)

- So the princess story
was an epic swipe left.

- Well, you weren't to know,

It's just I've been trying to avoid

the whole princess thing.

I mean, stories about girls
waiting to be saved by men.

- I'm sorry.

- No, it's, it's not your fault.

- I'm, (sighing)

I'm over sensitive today.

I didn't like leaving Zoe at daycare.

Sometimes I feel like a terrible mum.

(car engine roaring)

Sorry. Oh no, I.

Oh no, I didn't mean to
take it all out on you.

- (crying) It's not that
I'm, I, I'm pregnant and,

and I can't tell anyone.

And now you want me to leave?

- Oh.

Oh, no, no. Wait.

- No, I don't.

Not at all. (sighing)

Oh, Brody.

Listen,

if you're pregnant,

you need support to make decisions.

And

do you know what you wanna do?

Right.

Well the the first thing

we have to do is, is make
sure you are all right.

Would you like me to tell Billie for you?

- No, she'll kill me.

- No. No, she won't.

She needs to know.

And so does your mum.

- No, Nin, please don't tell her,

I shouldn't have told you. (crying)

- Hey, it's all right.

I'm glad you told me and I
won't break your confidence.

But when you ready, you should tell Billie

because she'll wanna know.

I can be there with you.

Come here. You'll be all right.

(Brody sobbing)

- [Brody] Thank you.

- It's okay.

- Goodnight.

- Goodnight.

(insects chirping)

(phone ringing)

(couch rustling)

- Hello?

- [Harry] Nina. Hi. It's Harry.

Did you speak to a journalist today?

- Yes.

What, what's happened?

- Okay. I've just been
pouring cold water on a story

about an ongoing investigation.

Did you say the investigation is serious?

- I, I said we take the matter seriously.

- Okay.
- Have I done something wrong?

- No. It's just, if,
if a journalist calls,

that's exactly the sort of
thing I need to know about.

(footsteps echoing)

- My need to provide care to my patients

will always take priority over telling you

whether a journalist has called.

- Well, you can do both.

Why,

why are you angry?

- Because you are holding
me to some kind of standard

that I dunno about.

(Harry sighing)

Why are you sighing at me?
- You're being combative,

I'm, I'm not too enemy in this.

I'm trying to stop this from
escalating from internet gossip

into front page news.

Okay? I am asking you
to keep me in the loop.

- Okay.

From now on I will do that.

- Thank you.

- Anything else?

- No, that's all.

Goodnight.

- Night.

(phone beeping)

- Was that a man?

- You know when someone has a picture

in their mind of who
you are and it's wrong

and you can't change it?

I hate myself for even
caring what some man thinks.

- On a scale of 1 to
10, how hot is this man?

- I don't know.

- That means nine or higher.

(bottles clanking)

- I'm not talking about him anymore.

Do you want some tea?

- Mm.

Kim and Jess asked Jimmy
to donate some sperm.

- Ah, that's wonderful.

No.

No?
- Turns out no.

I'd have thought Jimmy would
be happy to give his sperm.

- Why did you never
offer to give me an egg?

- Um.

- Mick and I couldn't conceive

'cause they couldn't
harvest an egg from me.

They, they couldn't use mine.

- I, I, I, I didn't know
you wanted me to offer.

I thought I'm, I, no, I didn't think.

- No, it's something
we, we never thought of.

(gentle somber music)

- Should I offer?
- I don't know.

- Billie, if I donated an egg to you.

- That's not what I'm saying.

- Do you want one?

- You don't need to gimme an egg.

You don't need to gimme anything.

It's all right. I'm going bed.

(gentle somber music continues)

(footsteps echoing)

(Nina sighing)

(traffic bustling)
(car horn honking)

(lift beeping)

(lift doors whooshing)

(footsteps echoing)

- Jade.

(door slamming)

- Um, whatever I tell you,

you have to keep it to
yourself, don't you?

- There are certain things
that I, I have to disclose.

I, I promise I won't unless
I absolutely have to.

- There was no mix up.

I saw them put the tag on Millie.

I know she's mine.

- That can only be a good thing.

- No, because she might
not be my husband's

and I can't tell him.

- Okay,

well then we have to protect you

and Bradley, all of you.

- I'm so sorry. (sighing)

God, this has gotten out of control

and all that stuff online.

There's no way out.

There's no way back.

Should I tell?

- Only you can decide that.

All I can say is that

I'm the child of an infidelity.

My mother wasn't sure.
So she kept it a secret.

It's only come out very recently.

- Do you wish that you'd known?

(somber music)

- I thought about that a lot.

And I,

I don't know.

But I spent 35 years being the
daughter of a wonderful man

who wasn't my biological father.

- I think we have to do the tests.

Bradley might be the father.

- What if he's not?

- Well, then we'll have
it all out and we'll know.

(water flowing)

(dishes rattling)

- Are you logging on to drive?

- Yep. See you later.

- When will you be home?

- [Jimmy] When I'm home.

- Jimmy, I thought that you
would be glad to donate sperm.

And I also thought that
you've been feeling useless.

- No. You've been looking
at me like I'm useless.

- No, I haven't. You're imagining that.

- I don't think so.

And this is your solution.

I had to sell my business,
but not to worry.

- What does this have to
do with the restaurant?

We've got children.
Kim and Jess want them.

They're our friends. We
love them and they need you.

And you can do it so easily.

You barely have to think about it.

- And that's what you think of me?

That I could just have
a child and walk away

and not be a father to that child.

- What is this about?

- Don't promise people children.

- Okay so as just to be clear,

the main reason that you are saying no

is because you think that
I want you to say yes?

- What?

- Is this about us?

(Jimmy sighing)

(footsteps echoing)

(keys clinking)
(door clacking)

(footsteps echoing)
(door slamming)

(phone ringing)

- Hello.

- [Suitor] Good morning.

- I think we've had our fun.

I think it's time we saw each other.

- Coffee?
- No. And not yet.

I, um,

I wanna see what you look like.

- [Suitor] Okay.

- We both put down our
phones. Don't hang up.

Go to the front door,
open it and get a visual.

- Now?
- Yes. Now.

Oh wait, um, you're not
naked or anything, are you?

- No.
- Right.

Putting the phone down, on three.

One, two, three.

(phone thudding)

Oh.
(sanguine music)

(door clacking)
(footsteps echoing)

- Do you want.

(Geraldine breathing out heavily)

(door slamming)

(Geraldine sighing)

- Hello?

- [Suitor] So what happens now?

- You know, um,

coming here all the time's
quite a lot of effort.

Why don't I just give
you my mobile number?

Get a pen.

(traffic bustling)

(phone ringing)

- [Kerry] This is Kerry.

- Kerry. It's Billie Proudman,
here, we met yesterday.

- [Kerry] Ah, yes.

- I'd just like to tell you

how uninspiring I found that meeting.

I mean, you might not like your job,

but it doesn't mean you
have to be a cow to me.

(Kerry sighing)

- Pardon?

- Okay. The deal is this.
I present myself to you.

You get to know me,
you help find me a job.

You know, you take a commission,

you foster our relationship,

and then in a year or two,
you help me find my next job.

You don't tell me that my
work history means nothing.

- Okay. So what do you want?

- What?

- You're dissatisfied. I get it.

And I was not on song
yesterday. So what's the remedy?

Do you wanna come back in?

(upbeat spirited music)

(folder rustling)

It is no excuse,

but yesterday I was in the middle

of some complex personal shit.

I won't bore you with it.

Is real estate gone for you as an idea?

- I thought it was gonna
be my big life career

and I blew it up, messed it up.

And I've been rudderless ever since then.

Or you've been busy.

Yeah, I've been busy, but just
unsure about the destination.

- Okay. Tell me about
managing your husband's tour.

- It's really just lining up hotels,

organizing vans to transport people

between Nottingham and Edinburgh.

- So logistics.

- It's really just talking on the phone.

- Making relationships.
- Yeah.

Well, so that when things go wrong,

there's good will stored up as a buffer,

I mean, everything's just
selling one way or another.

- You adapt. That's your key strength.

You change, you try new things

and you don't let setbacks defeat you.

Um, I've got another meeting,

but are you interested in working with me?

- Are you offering me a job on the spot?

- I find myself in need of someone,

or specifically someone who
knows how to make a call.

Someone who can pick up
the phone and say, hey.

- You're a cow. (laughing)
- (laughing) Exactly.

Now look, maybe we hate each
other by the end of the week

or maybe this works.

Do you wanna give it a go?

(upbeat music)

- [Nina] What's he thinking?

Why do you care what he's thinking?

- Regardless of the way
the tests come back,

we've lost face and we need to stay humble

and change the image of the hospital.

- Yes.

- I'm gonna recommend we
stop using images of you,

the face of St. Francis.

- The face of a disaster.

- Yeah. I mean, like it
or not, to some people,

you always look like the
doctor who swapped a baby.

- Well, I don't care what you think of me.

(Harry chuckling)

- You've made that very clear.

- It's important for
me to see this through,

whatever the results of the test are.

This final statement, I wanna make it.

- Nina, Mr. Crewe,

the results.

(folder rustling)

- Maternity and paternity are positive.

Millie is Bradley and Jade's child.

- Oh, this is good. This is good news.

(gentle music)

- As a mother myself,

I know how harrowing the thought

of bringing the wrong child home is.

However, there was no breach
of the systems of the hospital.

I'm delighted to confirm
that Jade and Bradley Clark

are the parents of baby Millie.

To allay any fears in the community,

we're offering free DNA testing to anyone

who had a child born during the emergency,

a year and a half ago.

- What does this mean for
Jade and Bradley Clark?

- Please leave them alone.

They've been through a
very stressful ordeal

and they deserve their privacy.

Thank You.
- Ms. Proudman, a follow up-

- [Reporter 2] Do you have any comments

on the state of the public healthcare?

- You guys, might live it there today.

Thanks for coming down.

(gentle music)

- I'm baby born by
Cesarean. Thank you Nina.

And all at St. Francis.

- That's you, Kim.

- I remember them.

- Oh, all our babies.

- Hashtag Love St. Francis.
That's exactly what we needed.

- We just finished the share of this.

- [Harry] Well, this is
unbelievable. The shares.

- [Martin] Cherie, Cherie.

I'll have a quiet word with you.

Yes.

Yes. I will marry you.

Right, um, everybody.

I have an announcement to
make. (clearing throat)

Cherie and I have just
decided to get married.

- What?
- Congratulations.

- Also, I will need a best man.

Nina,

were Patrick alive, I would've asked him.

But would you do me the honor?

- Yes.

- It means you can't be my bridesmaid.

- Am I here? Hello.
- This is,

this is what this unit is like?

I mean, something good happens

and you decide to get married?

- Yes.
- Yeah.

- What's this wedding gonna look like?

- One word,

medieval.

- Um, I don't look good in them mutton,

leggy shorts.
- No, no, no,

but this is something

that I've always wanted to do.
- Just compromise.

Agree on something, you
know, Regal and romantic.

Like...

- Dark magnificence. (chuckling)

- Yes. I like the sound of that. Yes?

- Yes.
- Excellent.

(All laughing)

(car engine humming)
(tires crunching)

(footsteps echoing)

- Nins.

You're just in time.

You are looking at a head hunter.

- Oh, congratulations.
- Thank you very much.

We're celebrating, Brody,
you'll have a splash.

I don't feel like it.

You're gonna be my first client.

We're gonna get your
career started. Come on.

Special occasion. Just a little bit.

- Billie.

- What?

Just a tiny bit, what?

- I'm pregnant.

(car engine roaring)

(bottle thudding)

(footsteps echoing)

- So You've been sitting on this secret

because you've been worried
about how I'd react?

- I don't want you to chuck me out.

- You're not gonna get chucked out.

Okay? That's not gonna happen.

And

I promise that I'm gonna support you in

what you decide.

(gentle music)

Do you know what you want to do?

- No.

- Well then, we'll, we'll
figure that out together,

won't we?

- Yes.

- [Brody] Are you okay?

- I'm just really glad you told me.

I'm really glad you told me.

(gentle music continues)

- [Nina] Could I?

Should I give Billie egg?

(footsteps echoing)

- Nina?

- Yeah. Hello.

- Hi. I just wanted to,

can we talk for a minute?

- I, well, uh, I've got an appointment.

- Okay.

- What?

- Well, it's just the crisis is over.

- Right?

- I'm wrapping up here.

- Making your
recommendations to the board.

- Yeah.

- (sighing) You've managed a narrative.

- Yeah, look, I've
rubbed you the wrong way,

but everything I did, the way I behaved,

was to protect you.

- You don't need to protect me.

- Well, that's my job.

- You've been exposing
me when I'm vulnerable

and I've found that undermining.

So I don't wanna be at the
mercy of what you think of me.

- Well, does it matter to
you what I think of you?

- Yes.

- Well, shall I tell
you what I think of you?

- No.

No. I, I don't wanna be any
more confused than I already am.

- Okay.

Well it was good to meet you.

I wanted you to have this.

- What is it?

- That's my recommendation to the board.

I thought you'd like to see it.

You have your appointment.

- Oh, yep.

Goodbye.
- Yeah.

(footsteps echoing)
Bye.

(gentle music)

The Robson wing is
unorthodox in many ways,

but as a team, they work with
cohesion, professionalism,

and an advanced sense of
duty towards the women

who come to give birth at St. Francis.

During a crisis that would've
seen other medical teams

disintegrate into bickering and blame,

this unit rallied together.

They're a credit to the hospital

and my recommendation
is to leave them alone

and allow them to continue
their excellent work.

(gentle triumphant music)

(Nina sighing)

(footsteps echoing)

- [Nina] Jodie, Patrick's ex-wife.

Hello.

- I didn't think you'd recognize me.

- Hi.

Are you in town long?

- Just a quick visit to see family.

- Oh, lovely.

Sit. Let's sit.

(Nina and Jodie sighing)

- I've, I've been debating
whether or not I should

or shouldn't have this
conversation with you.

- Oh, okay.

- Um, I just dunno your situation.

I don't know if you're single or?

- Yes, I'm single.

Why?

Is it something to do with Patrick?

- Hmm, yep.

Okay. (chuckling)

Here goes.

When we were married,

Patrick had some of his sperm frozen.

Now I didn't know about it. I
got a letter from the clinic.

It's, it's here in Melbourne.
It, it still exists.

I got a letter asking if I'd like to renew

the storage on it,

and I thought it was only fair

if I offer it to you so you
could have another child

if you wanted.

(sanguine music)

- Oh.

(upbeat music)

(upbeat music continues)
