[dramatic music playing]

Oi, oi, check this out.

Our dog used to do that.

Oi, Carbo.

Carbo.

Yeah, what? What, she here already?

Mate you need to chill.

She doesn't get here 'till tomorrow night.

Oh.

Good.

Right. Well, okay.

Off to bed. Come on, chop, chop.

It's 8:30.

Yeah, we've got the whole place to tidy.

An early start for all of us.

Yeah, why don't we just clean up now?

I'm knackered.

[Ben] Me and Carbo,

we've been best mates since we were four.

Sure he's got his faults...

-[object clatters] -[Carbo] Who put that there?

[Ben] ...like not watching where he's going.

Carbo never sees things coming.

[girl] Hey, Carbo!

Carbo! Watch out!

[whistle blows]

[Ben]Right out of left of field.

And I'm the one

who's always had to be there for him.

-Are you okay? -[boy] Carbo!

[both] Wa wa wa wincha.

-[Carbo] Thanks, Benno. -No worries.

[Ben] To pick him up and dust him off.

[Carbo] Ow!

[Ben] Most of the time.

[playful music playing]

Karandonis, takes on one, takes on two, oh, yeah!

Ooh, wouldn't let Carbo see you doing that.

-No. I'm just checking the-- -What are you doing?

[Ben] Told you.

I thought you're meant to be cleaning up.

Yeah, I'm checking her arrival.

You should always check in case

-the plane's running late. -Oh, yeah.

Oh, well, I was just about to do that.

So, who is this girl anyway? The queen of Lesbos?

Well, she's just a nice chick, okay?

First time off the island.

My mom will kill me if I don't treat her right.

Everything has to be perfect.

So, while she's here,

no walking around in your undies.

We've got to hide the x-rated DVDs,

the gangster rap

and the mega violent video games.

Carbo, they're all yours.

And I want them out of my sight!

So, is Artemis your second or third cousin?

Look not all Greeks are related.

She's my mom's best friend's daughter.

-This is his cousin. -Oh, so this is a set up.

-What? -Matchmaking.

Best friends setting up their kids.

I know how that works, trust me.

No she's like a sister, okay?

-She's just a baby. -Babies grow up.

So, uh, do you reckon she's got a moustache?

Hey, that is such a dumb stereotype.

-I wish it was. -[Melissa] Carbo,

are you sure about that flight number?

Yeah, why?

Well, according to this the plane landed an hour ago.

Mom will kill me.

What, from the other side of the world?

[Carbo] You haven't met my mom, have you?

Fair call. Carbo's dead.

She's only a little girl all alone in a big country.

She'll be freaking out. She won't know what to do.

[Artemis] Nikolakimou!

[Ben] Niko what?

It's a nickname.

[Melissa] So much for freaking out.

Five bucks on the moustache.

[singer] ♪ Turn on the sun ♪

♪ Turn on the sun ♪

♪ Light up the world Come everyone ♪

♪ Turn off the wind The thunder and rain ♪

♪ Turn on the sun Let's smile again ♪

-Nikolakimou! -Artie!

It is so good to see you.

I have missed you.

You... You're so big. I mean, you're not six.

And you're not twelve.

[Ben] And as if grown up Artemis

wasn't enough of a shock...

-Niko. -Mom?

My baby.

Surprise!

Oh, darling!

Hi, how are you going?

[indistinct chatter]

-Oh... -[Ted] Morning.

[Nathan] Morning, Grandad.

Mom and dad are "sleeping in" again.

Mmm. Why do you think I've got the radio on?

I think I might join Rachel outside.

-You coming? -Ah, I wish.

I promised Sammy I'd make breakfast.

So grab her a banana.

-Morning. Mom around? -[Ted] Morning.

[Nathan] Ah, they're sleeping in.

You don't want to go in there.

[Ben] Why?

-Oh, God! Oh. -[Julie] Ben!

[Julie and Dave giggling]

Told you.

I'm just gonna go and wash my eyes out with acid.

Mmm.

Ah, but when...

-when mom's-- -Awake?

Yeah. Can you just tell her

everyone's invited to a barbecue tomorrow?

Carbo's mom's best friend's daughter's cousin's

sister's whatevers arrived.

-Rita too. -Rita?

Yeah, she just turned up.

Gave Carbo the wrong arrival time.

Wanted to surprise him.

So we need damper, vegemite and lamingtons.

What else is typically Australian?

-Mmm. Roast lamb? -Greek.

-Seafood platter. -Greek.

What is it with this country? There's no original food.

-Kangaroos. -Kangaroo steaks.

Ten points, Benno.

Mate, you need to chill out.

So you weren't there to pick them up.

-She gave you the wrong time. -Yeah,

but we didn't clean the house.

She's up there right now doing this

and this and this.

You remember that list she left us?

She's come back to see if we stuck to it.

As if we stuck to it.

-[Rita] Nikos! -Down here, Mom.

We're having a barbecue.

You know, just us and the Rafters,

uh, to welcome Artie, you know.

All Australian kangaroo steaks.

You eat kangaroos?

Well, how was the shower, Artie? Nice and hot?

It was perfect, thank you.

-[Carbo] Mom? -Fine, fine.

I'm just glad I pulled off my little surprise.

You know why I did it, don't you?

-Um, no. -Why do you think?

-I don't know. -You know.

-Do I? -Oh, silly boy.

Because I missed my baby.

Oh, and when I saw Artemis packing

it made me miss him even more so I said,

"Theo, why don't I surprise him."

Now, why don't I make us all some coffee?

Mmm?

I'm sorry! I didn't want her to come.

She drove me crazy on the plane.

That's okay. She's not here for long.

One day is too long.

We have to get rid of her.

How am I even supposed to have fun?

And meet boys with her here?

[Ben]No, he never sees it coming.

What?

I'm not six anymore.

You know, I've been thinking.

About poor Ben?

He's gonna be traumatized for life.

No, it serves him right. Twenty four years old

and hasn't learnt how to knock.

I know.

No, I've been thinking about um...

having the snip.

-What as in the-- -Yeah, yeah.

-Snip, snip. -Oh. Um--

And sooner rather than later.

Ah, excuse me, a woman in second trimester,

I think it's a bit late for preventative measures.

Yeah, I'm just thinking ahead.

You know, I know the chances of you getting pregnant

-again are slim-- -Oh, well,

I'd be up for some kind of fertility award.

Yeah, I just think it's my turn

to take the responsibility, you know?

-Oh. -Lightning can strike twice.

Darling, that's very thoughtful of you

but let's face it,

once this baby's born we won't be having sex

for at least, eighteen years.

-Sad but true. -Mmm.

And what's the rush?

I haven't finished with you yet.

Mmm.

You're a shameless woman, you know that?

[Julie] Shameless.

Sam.

-Sam! -Oh.

[Nathan] It's safe to come out.

Sleep in time is over.

Hmm, how's your assignment going?

I don't know where to start.

Well, "explore the impact of the current economic climate

on two professionals in contrasting fields

and their responses to it."

What's the problem?

I don't want to screw up the assignment

by interviewing the wrong people.

-I'll take that. -[Sammy] Thanks.

What about Owen?

Owen?

Yeah, well, you must've thought of him.

[Sammy] I did but you hate Owen.

I don't hate Owen.

And he would be perfect to talk to.

What have you done?

What do you mean?

Why are you being so helpful?

Because you're my wife and I want you to do well.

And you're sure you wouldn't mind me seeing him?

Oh, what the guy that you were in love with

before you met me?

The guy that's never really gotten over you?

-What's the problem? -Stop it.

[Nathan] It's just the way you've handled

my screw-ups lately, Sam,

I'm just returning the favor.

Okay, so, call him.

[Sammy] Thank you so much for doing this.

[Owen] Hey, my pleasure. I'm just glad you called.

Okay, so my approach to this article

is going to be personal, relaxed.

I don't want it to be too dry or analytical.

Yeah. So, how's Nathan?

He's fantastic.

Um, he just started an amazing job

in the music industry, actually.

Music now is it?

I thought he was all about real estate or--

Oh, well it's all sales.

I mean, he'd be successful either way.

-Mmm. -Right.

Um, you were away

-for a couple of years. -Mmm-hmm.

What's changed since you got back from London?

Ah, well, professionally,

things aren't great obviously.

-Mmm-hmm. -Socially, I'm still single.

What are you doing?

You said to make it personal.

Um, your personal take on the global recession,

not your love life.

Sorry. I thought... Fine.

Ah, the way I see it

is we live in a culture of instant gratification.

In what sense?

Well, we all want short term gains.

No one looks at the bigger picture.

-Yeah. -But there's nothing

like an economic crisis

to make you reassess your priorities.

And I've realized that a bad choice made today

comes back to bite you tomorrow.

Owen, can you please just stick to economics?

-[Owen] I was. -You weren't.

-You were-- -What?

Where is all your good music?

Oh, there's some great CDs there.

-Nana Mouskouri? -[Carbo] Ah, yeah,

that was left over from mom's last visit.

Okay, rule one.

Look I know you've got mom conned

-but there's-- -Conned?

You know, tricked, fooled.

And I'm not going to take the blame

when she finds out you're not as sweet

-and innocent as she thinks. -I am innocent.

Good. Keep it that way.

Oh, hey, Nick.

[Carbo] Oh, g'day, Mrs. Rafter.

-This is Artie. -[Julie] Oh.

Hi, Artie. Welcome to Sydney.

Are you coming to the barbie tomorrow?

I wouldn't miss it. Is your mom in?

Unfortunately.

Sorry?

Uh, she's sleeping.

[Carbo] Yeah, jetlagged

but she was talking about going over

-to see you later. -Oh, good.

Look forward to it.

-Hi, darling. -[Ben] Hi.

Nathan gave me your message.

Good. Great.

See you've finally got yourself out of bed then?

-Ooh. -You right, Mrs. Rafter?

-Oh! -[Ben] Mom?

Yeah, no I just...

I just feel a bit light headed, that's all.

Well, like you're gonna faint?

No. Oh, no, no, no.

Probably, I haven't had breakfast.

I'm fine.

[Ben] If anyone should feel faint, it's me

after what I almost saw this morning.

Would you like me to hang a sock

-on the doorknob next time? -Oh, gross.

Well, I better let you get on.

-Are you off to the beach? -Yes. Bondi.

Oh, well, great surf, fish and chips.

Hot life savers.

Okay! In the car.

Okay, well enjoy. I'll see you at the barbie.

See you, Mrs. Rafter.

Okay, you got everything there?

Towel? Sunscreen?

-Yes, Niko. -[Carbo] Good, good.

Okay, hang on. Seatbelt on.

There you go. Gently.

[Ben]Anyone but Carbo could see

Artie was up to something.

But what she'd planned for the beach,

that definitely came from left of field.

Do you have any idea how lucky you are?

-Yes, I do. -I mean, how many guys

even think about taking responsibility

-for birth control? -I know.

And especially with so much on his plate.

I mean, what with his mother back in his life

-and business... -I know. I know.

I'm just, you know, I'm just a bit curious

about his timing that's all.

Julie why can't you just accept the fact

that you're married to a gorgeous loving husband

who is offering to have a vasec...

Anyway so when I saw Rita this morning,

apparently I had to do a commando roll

to avoid her seeing me.

-Hi, darling. -How'd the Walsh job go?

-Let me guess. -Oh, sorry.

It's just we're girlfriends and you know...

-Girlfriends talk. -Yeah.

I'm your boss, Chrissy. It's a bit--

Look at it this way, Dave.

I mean, at least you don't have to make up a story

about when you, ah, you know go and get it done.

[Julie laughing]

Oh, that's me done. Better get out of here

before the dragon wakes.

Dragon?

Rita. The ex-girlfriend, Rita.

-See you both. -[Julie] Bye.

Oh, what? Be proud.

Traditional Aussie cuisine.

How do you like it?

We do have fish and potatoes in Lesbos.

Oh, yeah, sorry I didn't mean--

I am teasing you.

When are we going swimming?

Oh, no. You have to wait half an hour.

Right, Mel?

That's such an old wives' tale.

[Carbo] What's so funny?

You've changed, Niko.

You're so responsible.

Not naughty like before.

Naughty? Our Carbo? Surely not.

When I was six he came to stay in our village.

Everyone remembers Niko.

[Ben] What'd you do?

I kind of borrowed her dad's car.

We drove all over the island.

My father was so angry.

It was so much fun.

[Melissa] Well, how old were you?

-About twelve. -Oh!

After that I always wanted to visit Niko

-here in Australia. -Come on. I reckon

we can stick our toes in the water.

Whoa! I said toes, yeah?

Beat you down there!

And put your top back on!

[Dane] Artie!

Dane!

It is so good to finally meet you.

[upbeat music playing]

[phone chimes]

[Nathan] Oh, your phone.

-Not from Jake then? -Mm-mm.

So he hasn't spoken to you in what a week now?

Maybe that's a good thing.

Oh, how is that a good thing, Nathan?

Well, mother issues can turn into Norman Bates territory.

Ah, see but Jake doesn't have mother issues.

She's got son issues.

[Sammy] Are you gonna wait for the economy to improve?

I don't know. It might take years.

I don't want to get stuck in a rut.

-I know the feeling. -Mm.

Sammy, I'm starving.

If we're gonna keep going with this

we should at least get dinner.

-Oh, I-- -There's a great new place

-around the corner. -Yeah, look

I--I've got more than enough.

You've been great. Thank you.

But I haven't given you my best insights.

Nathan will be waiting for me.

Uh, they're worth hearing. Trust me.

Solid gold for your article.

[Ben] The funny thing is, sometimes you know

precisely what's coming at you.

Up to you. My shout.

[Ben] But you don't move to stop it,

even when you know you should.

[Nathan] Yeah, yeah okay.

I'll see you... I'll see you when you get home.

Okay, bye.

[Rachel] Ooh, it's nice to see Sammy

asks your permission before she eats.

-She's out with Owen. -Right.

Well, I'm trusting her and she's trusting me.

[phone rings]

Oh, that's probably Sammy again then,

just wondering if she can have dessert too.

Layla, hey.

Ah, that's a little bit of a late notice.

Can we possibly make it another night?

Right, okay.

Ah, well, where and when?

Okay. I'll see you then.

Bye.

Layla?

I've got two words to say about that woman.

Bad influence.

I did drugs once.

Yeah, well two strikes and you're out remember?

Right, yeah. Well, like I said trust both ways.

Can we please just drop it?

It's dropped.

[Carbo] She'll be up the duff

before she even leaves the beach.

When did you get so stitched up?

When mom got out of the cab.

Artie's just having a good time.

So is Dane I reckon.

Oi! Hands above the water!

-Above the water! -[Melissa] Come on.

It's sort of sweet, like long distance romance.

[Carbo] Sweet? She met him on Facebook

and talking on Skype doesn't count.

It's not real.

Well, they're definitely making up for lost time.

And what is wrong with that?

She's an adult. We're all here.

It's not like he's gonna violate her

-in front of us. -Shh!

Don't even say that out loud.

Greek mothers have sonic hearing.

Like bats.

Dane's taking me for a jig at the pub.

[Dane] Gig.

To a gig.

A gig at the pub.

See? I've learnt two new words already.

Yeah, bet there's a few more he wants to teach you too.

Hey, ah, so you're in a band mate?

Yeah, that's right.

So what kind of music do you play?

[Carbo] Oi.

I thought you said you guys are gonna help!

Why are we pretending this is normal?

-This is not normal. -Carbo.

No. Look I'm not gonna lie to your parents

so you can screw around, okay?

It's not gonna happen. Come on.

You can't tell me what to do!

-Mate, this is so not cool. -Yeah, neither are you.

Come on. We're going.

-Carbo... -[Carbo] Grab your stuff.

-No, and get lost mate. -[Artemis] Nikolakimou!

Nikolakimou is dead.

And you need to get some sleep.

Ben, Mel, move it.

[Ben] Carbo had had it with balls to the head.

It was time to start kicking a few goals.

[mellow music playing]

[Carbo] Artie?

[Melissa]You looked on her Facebook?

Well, she was asleep.

And that's supposed to make it better?

Mate, it's going a bit too far.

-You can't spy on her. -Why not?

Listen, if the Trojans looked up the wooden horse's bum,

they might still be here today.

Look, all's fair in love and war.

Oh, well, then which is this?

Oh, what do you think? Forewarned is forearmed.

Listen, the last message was sent

just before we went to the beach.

That's how he knew we were there.

Mate, you're cracking up.

You can't do this.

Look, I can and I am.

I'm gonna save her from herself.

I'm starving.

-Carbo. -I know, I know, mate.

Okay? I know you don't get it.

Ooh, want some moussaka?

I want to know what's going on?

But, ah, yeah, cut me a piece.

Mate, the last time you mentioned Artie

was years ago. What's up?

It's a Greek thing.

Oh, stop it with the Greek thing.

It's Carbo, Carbo, not Greek Carbo.

Have you got the hots for her?

What? No!

Look, mate she's like a baby sister.

I told you, okay?

I just don't want her to get busted.

-Why? -All right. Fine.

You know that trip to Lesbos?

The time I met her? It was straight after

the under twelves soccer final.

You've probably forgotten that game.

Ah, the only time we got in the grand final?

The one when you totally missed the shot off

the free kick and cost us the championship?

[girls] Hey Carbo!

Hey! Woo-hoo!

Don't listen to the girls! Come on!

[indistinct chatter]

Yeah, that's the one.

Anyway, it felt like I'd just lost the grand prix.

Okay? And then in Lesbos I met Artie.

She followed me everywhere.

Yeah, Nathan used to do that.

-Deeply annoying. -Yeah, but it wasn't, mate.

You know, I was her hero.

Like Achilles, or Hercules.

Or even the Socceroos.

Then I stole her dad's car.

She thought I was so cool.

So, the whole big brother act--

Look, I can't help it, you know.

Every time I look at her I see this little girl

except now she's this giant girl

that wears tight clothes, makeup

and goes out with guys with tats.

And that's why I have to look out for her.

As simple as that.

Have you boys got any washing to do?

I can't sleep. I just keep lying there.

My eyes are like saucers.

I have to keep busy.

Thanks mom, that'd be great.

You found the moussaka.

That's it. I'll make you some more, okay.

Not a word, okay? I'll handle it.

[Sammy sighs] Obviously the financial crisis

hasn't impacted you that badly.

[Owen] Ah, I've been meaning to come here for ages

-but I had no one to bring. -Oh, poor baby.

Desperate and dateless.

[Owen] No one I really wanted to share it with.

Whoa, hey Sammy, relax.

It's over between us I know that.

-But I just have one question. -Owen--

[Owen] I've answered plenty of yours.

Please.

Thanks.

How long after we broke up did you get together with Nathan?

-Don't do this. -I know you love him now

but did you hook up 'cause you were on the rebound--

No of course not. This is ridiculous.

[Owen] Then why can't you tell me?

A few months?

A few weeks, Sammy?

Oh, weeks.

You have no right to ask me this.

-You left me. -Sammy, wait, please.

You're right.

I shouldn't have brought it up.

I'm happy you're happy.

I just...

I wish I'd never left.

Then I never would've met Nathan.

Exactly.

Look, let's just have a good time, eh?

As friends.

Please?

[Sammy] Um, so what are you gonna have?

[Layla] Nath.

Sorry I'm late. There was a massive accident

on Victoria Road.

I guess our client's running late too?

Um, he actually just cancelled.

Yeah, I was gonna call you but, um,

I figured you'd almost be here so...

-Well, Layla you probably-- -Look, look we need

to debrief anyway so why not do it

on the company tab?

Look, just sit down.

Debrief about what?

Um, well mainly about why you've been

acting so weird all week.

I'm sorry?

Look, um, Nathan if something

is the matter, then I...

Then I think we should clear the air.

Okay.

Uh I think we've been...

blurring the lines a little.

[laughs]

Is that a cocaine pun?

Oh, no. No, not deliberately

but yeah, it is kind of about that.

You think I'm interested in you?

Nathan, Nathan, relax, okay?

Your marriage vows are safe with me.

Okay.

-[Layla] So, air cleared? -Mmm-hmm.

Can we eat now?

Hmm, actually, I might just go home.

Okay.

What's wrong?

Excuse me a sec.

-Sam, hey. -Hi.

This restaurant really must be the latest hot spot.

Hi. Sammy, we're just, um,

having a client meeting.

Mm, yeah.

Without the client.

You said you weren't coming home so--

Yeah, and we're actually just about to eat

so why don't you invite your friend to join us?

-Or we... Or we can talk-- -Yeah, I'd just like a word

-with my husband, thanks. -Yep.

-Okay. -Yeah.

Sam before you say anything, the client did cancel.

Then why didn't Layla just cancel the dinner?

Because it was too late and we had issues to sort out.

Work issues.

And she had to do it at an expensive restaurant

-with mood lighting? -Mm, like your interview

with Owen?

Can we please just talk about this later?

I don't trust her.

Hey, guys, is everything okay?

-Yeah, yes, yep. -Actually--

-Everything is fine. [Layla] Good,

'cause I just talked to the waiter and he's got us

a table for four. I thought it would be kind

-of weird otherwise. -[Nathan] Mm.

And your friend, he's very cute.

Look I'll be there in a minute.

I've just got to go to the bathroom.

Look, I'll go and talk to her.

-It'll be fine. -No, Layla, Layla!

[Layla] Look, Sammy, I think there's been a bit

-of a misunderstanding. -What would that be?

[Layla] Well, for some reason you seem to think

there's something going on between Nathan and me.

No, actually, I don't.

But I think you're trying it on with him.

[Layla] What, because we're having a meeting

-in a restaurant? -[Sammy] No,

because you're lonely and angry

that your boyfriend's cheating on you

so you 're using Nathan to make yourself feel better.

-So much for confidentiality. -[Sammy] Well, he had

to give me some reason for getting home at 3:00 a.m.

so often. Or, was that just the coke

that you've been supplying him?

Sammy, that was once, okay?

And as for Steve...

[sighs] You know, maybe you're right.

Steve and I have an open relationship, okay?

And it works well most of the time.

But lately not so much.

And the only person that lonely, angry Layla

has to turn to, who's even remotely interested

in listening to her is Nathan.

Oh.

Right.

And I'm sorry if it has been difficult for you

but it really wasn't my intention, okay?

-I'm sorry. I just-- -No, don't be.

You know, if some strange woman

was taking up all of my partner's time

I'd be pretty suspicious too.

In fact that's exactly my problem with Steve.

Now, um, the way I see it

is that we have two choices.

You can either slap my face and we can go

for it in a full on scrag fight,

or else we can let it go and we can head back

out there and be fabulous.

They'd both be pretty fun but I think

the second one's a bit more dignified, don't you?

[Ben] Nathan had expected a catfight.

A truce was definitely out of left field.

[Sammy] So you're sure you don't mind?

[Layla] What? Mind talking about myself?

Sammy, you clearly do not know me yet.

Look just call me tomorrow and we'll set up a time.

Okay and that's my assignment research

-done in two days. -Cool.

And we make quite the information double act

-I think. -[Owen] Mm.

I better head. Talk to you soon.

-[Sammy] Yeah. -[Owen] Let me know

-how the article goes. -Hey, um, what are your plans

-for the rest of the night? -Home.

-Shower. Sleep. -Nightclub?

Nice to meet you, Layla.

-Goodnight, Sammy. -Goodbye.

-[Owen] Nathan. -[Nathan] See you, Owen.

-Ooh. -[Layla] Oh, well.

-Next. -[Nathan] Oh, whoa.

No, I think it's probably time

-we got you to a cab. -Oh, that time already?

-Come on. Guys. -Oh, my jacket.

Hold on.

Layla, about that meeting tomorrow,

I never told Sammy about that kiss,

so can you please, just in case, don't mention it?

What kiss?

That night that we were out of it?

I was leaving and you kissed me?

You... Nope? No, you don't remember it,

-do you? -No, I don't.

-I'm sorry. -Look, no wonder

you thought I was coming onto you

but Nath in the future just...

Ignore everything I do when I'm under the influence.

Okay. You won't tell her right?

No. My lips are sealed.

Unlike that night apparently.

Um, anyway, say bye to Sammy for me.

I am gonna go and get my own cab.

-Okay. Bye. -Just... Careful.

[Ben] It never occurred to Nathan

that if someone can forget a kiss when they're on drugs,

they can also forget a promise when they're drugged.

[Carbo] You go out there, I'll tell mom the whole deal.

-You scared me! -I don't want to but I will

and then she'll take you straight back home.

What are you doing here?

'Pick you up at midnight

and we can ride all night'.

-You've been on my computer? -Shh!

-You'll make up mom! -What are you?

-A prison guard? -Look you don't know this guy

from a rear spoiler.

I want to make sure you're safe.

[speaking in Greek]

Maybe I should be your father!

-Go to bed! -I'm going out!

-[Carbo] No, you're not! -I'm not a child!

You're not going anywhere.

Watch me!

-Mom! -Don't you dare!

-Hey, mom! -[Artemis] Shh!

Your choice.

Bed. Or mom.

All right. I'm gonna bed.

[Carbo] Look, you can go on dates.

Fine.

But you do it the right way.

Open, honestly, in front of everyone.

But not mom.

I hate you.

[Carbo] If you're here to see Artie

you're wasting your time mate.

Now, if you're legit,

maybe we'll see you again.

But if this is just some kind of easy

internet pick up, I guess we won't.

Either way you'll be dealing with me.

Got it?

Now get lost.

And make it quiet.

[tires screeching]

Hey, nice job, mate.

-Reckon he'll come back? -No, he's gone.

-Where's Artie? -Don't worry

she's in her room. I just checked.

[Carbo] Thanks mate. Any sign of mom?

No she must've crashed.

Yeah. This is doing my head in.

-Why won't she listen to me? -She's eighteen.

[Carbo] Yeah, but that doesn't mean

she can't see I'm just trying to look out for her.

Yeah. She will.

[Carbo] I hope so. Not sure how much more of this

I can take.

-Goodnight mate. -[Carbo] Goodnight, Benno.

[Ben] Rita was playing a surprise game of her own

and this time it wasn't Carbo who'd be hit

from left of field.

[Rita] Artie's a little minx,

from a good family, but has her parents

completely fooled but not me or my Niko.

Just as I thought.

So that's why you're here?

To make sure that Carbo can chaperone a teenage girl?

[Chrissy] Hi. Sorry parking...

-Oh. -Hi. Look who I ran into.

-[Chrissy] Hello. -Ah, Chrissy.

There are things that need saying.

And there are things that were said.

-Oh. -Hug a grateful mother.

A boy like Nik does not give up

unless guided by a wiser mind.

Older, but wiser.

Nik got cold feet about the engagement

just as much as I did.

But other women, women like you

are called cougars for a reason.

They have claws that cling tight.

But you let Nik go.

And for that I will always, always be grateful.

Oh, Rita, gosh that's...

That is so generous.

We were just talking about Artie.

-What about her? -[Rita] What you don't think

I'd come all this way if I didn't have plans

for the two of them?

-The two of them? -Artie and Carbo?

-As a couple? -Of course.

Well, I thought arranged marriages

had gone out of fashion.

It's not arranged.

It's just, encouraged.

Um, does Carbo know?

[Rita] Of course not.

But he'll see sense.

I mean, they're perfect for each other.

Both Greek, family connections,

similar interest, similar age.

But enough about my children.

Jules, are you all right?

-Yeah. -[Rita] Julie are you okay?

I just I think I need to sit down.

[Chrissy] Jules! [screams]

Okay, okay here she comes.

Hey, you back with us?

No, don't rush.

-God-- -No, no, no, it's no rush.

-What happened? -You fainted.

-Easy does it. -Oh!

Has this happened before?

Um, no.

I mean, was feeling a bit lightheaded yesterday

but, I don't...

I just put it down to Dave and I overdoing it.

-Darling you were unconscious. -Come on now.

-Let's get you home to bed. -No, no, no, the only place

you're going is to see your doctor.

Come on. I don't want you going home

until you've been checked out.

Oh, unwise in love, so wise in life.

Oh, thank you.

I think? [laughs]

[Layla] Look I can't promise I will make much sense.

I'm feeling pretty fragile.

-Hung over? -[Layla] Yeah, that,

and, um, Steve called this morning

so needless to say there were fireworks.

Oh. Sorry.

Oh, god, no don't be.

I'll get over it. I always do.

I take it he does this a lot?

Mm.

Yeah, well, like I said we're in a sort

of an open relationship.

Only occasionally I get jealous.

I guess he's just a bit more open than me.

In fact, he's kind of open all hours.

That sounds...

-awful. -[Layla] Yeah.

I mean don't get me wrong, I don't want him to change.

In fact I think it would be kind of better

-if everyone was like Steve. -How can you say that?

Well, because he's not all screwed up

by jealousy and guilt.

I mean, look at you and Nathan for example.

Like you totally freaked out last night

about one dinner. And he freaked out

about one tiny little kiss.

-It's just-- -Kiss?

Sammy, I'm sorry okay?

Look, it was completely my fault.

-I was high. -He kissed you?

No. No, it was... It was me.

It was me. Please do not get mad at him.

-He did nothing wrong. -He didn't tell me.

Well, see this is my point exactly.

I mean, he hasn't done anything but suddenly

he's guilty and you're jealous.

Sammy, how are you gonna cope

when he does meet someone he's attracted to?

He's not supposed to be attracted to anyone else.

Look, you seriously think in what the next fifty years

he's not gonna check out other women?

-And what about you? -I don't want to talk

-about this. -Yeah, because you are scared.

Because Owen still does it for you

and even if Nathan can't tell, I can.

See, what Steve would say the really scary thing is,

that Nathan is gonna be the last guy

-you are ever with. -Layla.

[Layla] No, think about it.

Think about it, Sammy. There are so many

gorgeous people out there and you're never gonna get

-a chance to-- -Can we please just...

Can we just get on with this?

[knocks on door]

Is it safe to come in?

[Artemis] Unless you're with Niko.

[Ben] Did you, uh, did you hear from Dane today?

And I bet you won't.

Look, Carbo's going overboard

but he knows what guys

like Dane are really like.

-What they want. -Yes, and I wanted it too.

I'm eighteen. I make my own decisions.

So, ah, why do you care if your mom finds out?

Think about how you and Carbo were in Lesbos.

How he's treating you now.

You're like a little sister to him.

He's just trying to protect you.

Look, I know he can be over the top,

but he's just doing it

because he really cares.

Think about it.

-[Julie] Ow! -[Dave] You okay?

-You comfortable? -Would you stop fussing?

-Well, you fainted. -Yeah. I just...

I just have to take it easy for a few days.

-What caused it? -She doesn't know.

But if it happens again she's gonna send me

-for some tests. -But it was, um,

nothing that we did was it?

[Julie] Oh, well, if it is it takes two

so don't beat yourself up.

And anyway I asked. She doesn't think it's that.

[Dave] All right. You just take it easy

just in case. You want a cup of tea?

-Oh. I'd love one, thanks. -Chrissy?

-Yeah, okay. -No, no, you sit down.

You deserve more than a cup of tea.

Oh.

-You are so lucky. -Yeah.

Don't I know it.

In my choice of friends too. Thanks for today.

I'd kill for someone to look at me like that.

"Unwise in love, so wise in life."

Oh, Rita has her way with words.

[Chrissy] Hey, Dave, ah, Jules is gonna take

a rain check on that cup of tea.

She's actually pretty knackered.

Oh, okay. You still want one?

No, thanks. I might head home.

[Dave] Chrissy, um, thanks again.

-Oh, what are friends for. -[Dave] Oh, come on,

you're more than just a friend.

You're practically family.

Thanks from me, Jules, and the baby.

-We'll see you later. -Yeah, see you.

[Dave] Drive carefully.

[Ben] Yep, life can hit you over the head

with all sorts of things,

most of which you have no control over.

[Ben] Right. The wine's sorted.

Red's on the table.

White's in the esky. Pink could go either way.

-Is that all the beer? -No, there's another six pack

-in the charger. -Ah.

Dad just stuck his head over the fence

and volunteered to cook. I think he just wants

a crack at your new barbie.

Maybe we should cancel.

What? Don't be an idiot.

-Mom's up and raring to go. -You can't have a barbecue

without the guest of honor.

Mate, it'll be fine. I promise.

Trust me, I'm psychic about these things.

Niko, can I help with the barbecue?

Ah, sure.

-That'd be great. -I'll, ah, just go

and grab that other six pack.

-[Carbo] Look, Artie-- -Let me speak first.

You don't know what it's like to grow up

-in our village. -Well, I can guess.

[Artemis] It's worse for a girl.

I thought if anyone will help,

Niko will.

I thought you'd understand.

Look, I understand guys like Dane.

Hey, sometimes I can be a guy like Dane.

There's plenty of time.

You just don't have to do it all at once.

Okay.

There are good guys out there.

[Artemis] That's why I'm here,

to find a good man, a man I choose.

Nikolakimou.

And you're the only one that can get away

with calling me that.

Mom!

I'm helping with the barbecue.

-What can I do? -Those there.

Take them out.

Your father said he can't look after himself,

let alone a teenage girl.

Thank you for proving me right.

Oh, my little Niko.

All grown up. Oh, you're gonna make

a wonderful husband one day.

My big, strong son.

I'm proud of you.

Now close your mouth. It makes you look simple.

[clears throat]

There you are. How'd you go?

Fine. Um, what are you doing?

Oh, I'm just grabbing some more supplies

for the barbecue.

So, um, the interview went well?

Mmm-hmm.

Mm, she, um, gave me more than I needed.

Good.

Good, well, I think you're gonna absolutely blitz

this assignment. We should...

We should probably head back--

Why didn't you tell me she kissed you?

-How did you-- -Well it just slipped out

so tell me now.

She was off her head.

Sam, she kissed me. I didn't kiss her

and you were already hostile towards her.

I just... I didn't want to give you any more reason

-to hate her. -So you were protecting her?

Yeah, I guess. Sort of.

-She's kind of fragile. -You're the one

that needs protecting, Nathan.

Sam, nothing happened.

That's not the point!

She's unstable and you need to stay away

-from her. -Sam I already talked to her

about this, okay? Last night before I saw you--

I cannot believe you didn't tell me about this.

We promised we were gonna be open about everything.

I'm sorry.

Did she say anything else?

-Is there anything else? -No.

Sam, that's it. I'm really sorry.

-Sam, I'm-- -Are you depressed

at the thought that I'm the last person

you're ever gonna be with?

-What? No. Are you? -So if someone was attractive

and you knew I wouldn't get jealous

and no one was gonna get hurt, would you?

No.

[Sammy] Not even be tempted?

No. No, Sam. Not for a second.

I love you.

-Would you? -[Sammy] No.

Never. I married you.

I don't want to be with anyone else.

That's really good to know, okay?

'Cause that's all I want too.

[Artemis] My yaya taught me this.

If it swings across it's a boy.

If it goes in a circle, it's a girl.

-Yeah, but does it work? -In my family, yes.

-[Julie] Okay. -[Artemis] Look.

-It's a girl. -[Julie] Oh!

A baby sister!

Hang on, I don't know how I'm gonna feel about that.

Oh, darling, you'll always be the honored

-first daughter, I promise. -Okay.

[Carbo] Here you go, Benno.

[Ben] Thanks.

Hey, Ben I don't know what you said to Artie,

but thanks.

What are mates for?

No, I mean it.

Thanks.

You're not gonna kiss me, are you?

It's a bit Greek.

[Dave] Meat's up.

[Julie] Hey, listen thank you for today.

I don't think I said it before.

Oh, please.

Now let me get you some food, ah?

Oh, thanks Rita.

-[Artemis] For you, Niko. -Oh, I could've done that.

-Where's ours? -Mate, you haven't got Mel

-well trained enough. -I heard that.

[Ted] Oh, every man for himself.

Thanks.

I've got something for you.

I was gonna show it to you later

-but I found this. -It's you and me.

-[Artemis] Niko! -[Carbo] Yeah mom had it.

Look you're a top chick, Artie.

And you should be out there partying

with nice guys. I just...

Just don't want you to get hurt.

Because of her?

[Carbo] Yeah.

Look I reckon we go for a drive later,

just like in Lesbos.

You know check out the city at night.

-You're serious? -Absolutely.

Thank you, Nikolakimou.

[Ben] Like I said, Carbo was never very good

at seeing things coming.

So when they do come from left of field,

what can a mate do?

What I've always done.

The same thing he'd do for me.

You right, mate?

I don't know.

[Ben] Be there to see him through it.

Ah, way too Greek.

[Young Ben] Focus on the game, not the girls.

[Young Carbo] Yeah. But they're cute.
