[theme music playing]

[Dave] There aren't many times in life

when we really get to let our hair down,

push the boat out, shake up the world, and party.

But darling I thought we were planning a barbecue.

That's not a party.

I'm talking a proper Rafters rave.

We didn't have one for Nathan and Sammy.

I mean we didn't even have one when we got married.

Well, yeah that's because we were flat broke at the time.

[Dave] Yeah but now we're not.

The business is going well,

we've got a little bit of money put away.

Oh, do we Mr. Rockefeller?

[Dave] It'll be nothing like Tony Westaway's 50th.

But for the first time in a long time

everything's coming together, you know?

All the kids are in a good place,

we have another one on the way.

You've got your mom back.

Yeah. What's not to celebrate.

Plus Mel's parents are coming over from Perth,

and we've got to impress them.

Yeah. No, I'm sure they'll be fine

if they're half as nice as Mel.

[Dave] The party to end all parties.

What do you say?

Ben and Melissa are going to love this.

-A beach party? -Why not?

We're not on a beach for a start.

And it's an engagement party.

Yeah, no, no, no, your dad means a theme for the party.

-Hawaiian. -But why?

Because it'll be fun.

Remember that end of season bash

for Macka and the boys did that hula number?

You were on the floor.

I was eight and how old is this junk anyway?

It's all right. They've been packed away.

Come on you've got free costumes,

your mom'll do the food.

I reckon I can get the rowing club.

No, but I can do cocktails.

Something, something tropical.

There you go. Ted?

Oh, well as long as you don't expect me

to whack on a grass skirt.

I'm more a sarong man.

[David laughs]

We just wanted to have something small.

[Dave] No, no, this is our special gift to you both.

Besides, Mel's parents can't come all the way from Perth

for a couple of burnt snags.

What do you say? Come on!

A beach party it is.

[Dave] Ah great! I'll call the guys.

Even Steve's going to come back for this one.

I, um, I didn't think Steve was getting back

from the States until late next week.

No, I texted him.

Wouldn't be much of a party without him.

Problem is, the bigger your party plans,

the bigger the mess if they don't quite work out.

Layla it's me. I just heard Steve's back early.

Can you please call me.

Please? Okay bye.

[phone beeps]

[Ted] Cocktails eh?

Very cosmopolitan.

Mai Tais are Hawaiian.

Got to go easy on the rum.

You okay? You seem tired.

Oh don't fuss, Dave.

Treatment tomorrow, it'll buck me up. Tomorrow?

But didn't you have one on Friday?

What are you keeping a diary?

[Dave] No, no, it's just, oh don't worry.

Long, as long as it's working.

[Ted] You still want that lift? Could you? Yeah.

Nothing else to do.

I have to be there at 10:00. Okay.

I'll pick you up at 9:30.

[Chel] Thank you and aloha.

You giving her a lift?

Yeah, yeah, whatever she has done there

she is not allowed to drive afterwards.

-She told you that? -Yeah.

That's not what she's told me.

Look mate she'll tell us if she wants to.

-[car engine turning over] -Just stop, stop worrying.

She'll be okay.

Dad's going a bit overboard with this whole beach theme.

I think it's sweet he's making the effort.

A Hawaiian engagement party.

Hey, it could be worse.

It could be a Hawaiian wedding.

Ah, that's what I love about you.

You're a glass half full kind of girl.

This just arrived by courier.

It's for you.

[gasps] It's from mom and dad!

Why didn't they just bring it with them?

I don't know. It's kind of heavy.

Maybe they didn't want to schlep it on the plane.

[all] Ooh.

So, a crock pot...

It's a crock of something.

Gee, thanks mom.

Question, has your mom ever actually met you?

No, it was really...thoughtful.

Thank you. I'm sure we'll get a lot of use out of it.

Oh? When?

Well, can't he get out of it?

Ben's parents are going to so much trouble.

Oh, that's great.

That's one member of the family.

Yeah. Okay.

Okay. Yup.

Bye mom.

[phone beeps]

[Melissa] Absolutely typical.

They're not coming?

Dad's got a meeting in Singapore he can't shift

and mom's going with him.

Yup.

I'm sorry.

[Ben] Hey, no worries. I'll meet them at the wedding.

It is a bit odd though not having

any of your family at the party.

Well, actually there will be.

Mom said my brother's flying in from Broome. Dermott?

Yeah, meaning every single woman at the party's

going to be fair game.

Ah.

[Carbo] Ah, talking about me again?

Actually my brother.

He's a mining engineer out in the Pilbara.

Three weeks on and then two weeks off

to party hard and pick up chicks.

Are you serious?

How come no one told me about jobs like that?

You got over Artie fast.

Bloke's got to move on, Benno.

Even if his heart is breaking.

Cheer up mate.

Hey ah, what is all this?

It's a party planning.

Yeah, Hawaiian luau.

Ooh.

[Julie] Any luck with the beach umbrellas?

Yup I've got one here who delivers

and thankfully we're not talking big bucks.

Oh hey if you're going to start worrying

about the cost of this...

I'm not, I'm not. Well, good

'cause we're only back to one income next month.

Yeah. Well then we go in the recession diet.

Well I'll start reading up on the pineapple recipes then.

Hey Jules did Chel seem all right to you today?

Dave, you said yourself, no more questions.

But I can't help it.

I mean what's really going on with her?

She still hasn't told us.

Yeah and maybe she never will.

She said she's fine and that should be enough.

-But if I just knew... -Dave, stop.

We've got a party to organize.

Let's focus on that.

Okay?

[siren blares]

Five messages, Nathan.

Steve's back early.

And you're both coming to this party.

Oh please, tell me that's not why you've been hassling me.

[Nathan] I just want to make this clear .

You're not going to tell him are you?

[Layla] No. No. I thought it'd be better

just to show him the video.

That's very funny, Layla.

Make jokes about it. That's just perfect.

[Layla] Look Nathan, why would I tell him?

I mean seriously.

Look, I don't even know

why we're still talking about this.

Okay?

Because... Hello?

-Lay... -There you are.

Uh, I am going shopping with mom tomorrow morning

and if I did happen to see something

that I wanted to wear to the engagement party...

-Go for your life. -[Sammy] Thank you.

And I will show some restraint, I promise.

[upbeat music playing]

[Ted] Well, here we are.

[Chel] Thanks for the lift.

Do you want me to pick you up later?

I've got a friend coming. So, thanks though.

Hey listen um...

Dave means well you know?

Yeah I do know.

[Ted] You're his mum. He's worried.

He doesn't have to be.

Yeah I, I know but...

HIV is just, just something I live with.

Understood.

[car engine revving]

Chel!

[acoustic music playing]

[Dave] It must be some kind of related thing.

Well, your guess is as good as mine.

Hey, but Melissa would know.

Hey Mel, why would someone with HIV

be going to a renal unit?

-I'm sorry? -Dad?

Ted ran Chel to the hospital this morning.

-What? -Are you sticky-beaking?

No, no. I'm not. We're just...

Granddad you followed her?

[Dave] It wasn't like that.

-She... -Did you put him up to this?

No. No. Why a renal unit?

Sorry, without knowing her medical history...

But you must have some idea.

Well, no, I really couldn't speculate.

It's to do with the kidneys, right?

Dave! Melissa's obviously not comfortable with this.

And neither am I, dad. Shh.

All right all right. Not Chel.

But someone like Chel but not Chel,

uh, hypothetically.

Hypothetically, okay.

How long's this person been treated for HIV?

About twenty years.

[Melissa] Okay. Um, the thing is

HIV medication can be pretty toxic to the system.

Prolonged use can have some side effects.

-Like what? -Well, any number of things.

Like her kidneys failing?

I couldn't say for sure.

But it's possible?

Yeah, it's possible.

[Dave] Suddenly, I had more than hula skirts

and cocktails to worry about.

Stewart will love his new shirt, don't you think?

[Sammy] Oh ah I've never seen Warney in pink before.

Show a little flair why don't you?

He'll look gorgeous.

Excuse me.

Of course it'd help if I could read my own writing.

Do you reckon that's a, a seven...

-or a five? -[Sammy] Um...

oh gosh your guess is as good as mine.

-Sorry. -Me too.

It doesn't mean things aren't looking up though.

What do you mean?

You wouldn't be saying that

if you were standing here right now.

Oh. What are you doing?

Just checking to make sure you're real.

Well, if you're looking for the asylum...

Well, Melissa Bannon actually.

It's that gate there and let me tell you

she's not going to fall for your lines either.

Well, that's good for both of us.

[Melissa] It's so good to see you!

I can't believe you came all this way.

Well someone's got to make sure

you don't hook up with another poof.

-Dermott! -[Dermott] So which one is he?

-Which one's the fiance? -G'day, I'm Ben.

I can't see him with a handbag.

-Hey! -Only kidding mate.

-Good to meet you. -Nice to meet you too.

[Melissa] And um this is Carbo our flat mate.

-Carbo? -Mate. Single guy?

I can tell. He's got that desperate haunted look.

[Melissa] Oh the lines don't get any better do they?

You can tell?

Welcome to my world, mate.

But I, I've just got one word for you and that word is,

bridesmaids.

They better be hot.

I'm not having any bridesmaids.

Mate, look I tried to tell her.

I begged and pleaded.

I've been stuck in the middle of nowhere.

Yeah, I know that.

Five hours on a plane to get here.

Yes I know that. Yes.

Well, help me out here.

You want to see your room?

Not too soft, not too hard.

I think I can work with this.

Thanks for coming.

Truly.

At least one member of the family shows up.

[Dermott] What do you expect?

We're never going to win any international

family of the year awards.

Yeah.

[Dermott] Hey you reckon mom and dad even called me

on my last birthday?

No. They just sent me a card and some bloody crock pot.

Are you kidding?

[Dermott] Why would I kid about that?

Why would anyone?

Rule number one, just don't take it personally.

Yeah it's hard not to.

Mel, it's... it's always about them.

It always has been, always will be.

They're never going to change.

No.

If you're expecting an engagement present,

I'm sorry but I blew all my dough on the flight over.

Yeah, the best present ever.

-It's so good to see you. -You too.

[Dave] Okay, I've been on the net

and it makes sense the bruising on her arms.

If she's only been visiting the hospital twice a week

then they wouldn't have put in the shunt.

It's only if she's having dialysis

three times a week they put in the shunt.

So if it's her kidneys, that's what happens.

Yeah. Well, like Melissa said

we don't know that for sure.

-[Dave] What else would it be? -Well, I don't know darling

but I don't think I'm getting through.

I thought we learnt our lesson last time.

[Dave] Yeah, yeah, we did but this isn't personal,

this is practical. We can be there for her.

Yeah, I just don't want to risk

scaring her off again that's all.

And I just want to make sure she knows we're there for her,

one hundred percent.

Why would that scare her off?

Well, maybe it wouldn't.

But darling, look, whatever you decide to do

or say can you just sit with it for awhile?

At least till after the party?

Okay this is Ben and Melissa's day.

I don't want to spoil it.

Yup. Fair enough.

-[Julie] Go on. Get threading. -What?

Well, you said you wanted a lei.

[both laughing]

[elevator dings]

[Nathan] Okie-dokie I might call it a day.

I've still got a couple of numbers to go through

-but I can do that from home. -[Layla] Okay.

[Steve] Well, I turn my back for five seconds

and you're already slacking off.

Steve. Hey.

I... I didn't think you were getting back

till later tonight.

Well, there was something that required

my urgent attention and there she is.

Oh, hello.

Oh I missed you so much.

I missed you more.

Yeah I'm.. I'm just going to...

I'm going to head off. Listen, Layla's told me

the whole deal of everything that's been happening.

Really?

There's no point in keeping any secrets, is there?

I just want to thank you Nathan.

The business is obviously in very good hands.

I'm just so glad to have someone on board I can trust.

Layla tells me you guys are working out

well together as a team.

Yes and I hope I'm not just speaking for myself.

Well, I'm just trying to do my job.

And listen I reckon the working day's over.

So what say we scoot, we have a drink, my shout.

Ooh ah yes I'd love to but I've actually

got to get back and, um, do some stuff

for Ben's engagement party.

Ah, yeah I hear you.

Well, we'll catch up there and have a drink or three eh?

Yep, absolutely.

Ah, great to see you Steve.

Nathan.,

[Layla] See you.

[Dave] Hey Warney, before you go could you spare me

to hour or two tomorrow morning?

Anything for you, boss.

[Dave] Yeah I just need to pick up

some table and chairs for the party

and take them down to the rowing club.

I thought it was just a backyard barbie?

Mmm, didn't we all.

Let's just say it's turned into

something a little bit more full on.

Perhaps not as big as what you're used to

but big nevertheless.

Oh, we're looking forward to it, Dave.

-[Dave] Yeah, me too. -No worries.

-Sam. -[gasps]

[Warney] Oh, no prizes for guessing

who they're for eh Nath?

[Trish] Some kind of peace offering?

No.

Can't I do something nice for my gorgeous wife

without there being a hidden agenda?

Oh, Sammy run for your life

whenever you hear a man say that.

Thank you. They are a lovely, lovely thought.

That's fine. I'm going to have a shower.

Mom, how many times?

I hate when you say things like that.

Nathan is not dad.

So you've never checked his clothes

for a tell tale sign of a love potion number nine?

Not even once?

Ah she's only joking.

Yeah, well I'm not laughing.

Nathan, thanks for the... Oh.

[dramatic music playing]

[knocks on door]

Hey good timing.

Which shirt do you reckon for this party?

Red or blue?

Blue matches my eyes now, red'll match them later on.

Ben, I've done something really stupid.

You've decided to wear boardies?

Mate, I already told you.

The sight of your legs could curdle milk.

I slept with Layla.

It only happened once. It was stupid.

I don't know what I was thinking.

Why are you telling me this?

Because I can't handle it anymore.

So I'm meant to feel sorry for you?

I know I did the wrong thing but it was a mistake.

[Ben] And now your guilty conscience means

that I get dragged into it, well thanks.

[Nathan] That's not what I'm trying to do.

Hey I don't need this all right?

My engagement party's this weekend

and all you can think about is you

and how to make yourself feel better.

All right. So I'm a scumbag.

No arguments there.

[Nathan] I don't know what to do.

Okay how's this?

Put someone else first for a change.

Think about what's best for Sammy.

[Jake] Looking good. That looks like a lot.

Yeah, we'll get the rest in the back of my van

and we'll go and help Warney eh?

[Sammy] More decorations.

Um dad what's, what's next?

Ah, there's some more stuff in the shed

then we'll all head down the club.

Right there are officially no Hawaiian lanterns

left in the whole world.

There's not a lot of booze either.

That's just for Chel's mai-tais.

Looks like we'll be catching a cab home.

All right, Benno said that these need to go on ice.

Yeah could you grab some mate?

[Carbo] Yeah sure.

-Hey, did you get them? -Wasn't easy.

The guy said there wasn't much call for them

but yeah is Dermott in?

In like Flynn, mate.

What are you guys up to?

-[Carbo] Nothing. -Nothing.

You know just a little surprise for Mel and Benno.

Sorry, sworn to secrecy.

All hands to the pump eh.

Hey, run while you still can, Chel.

No, no, I'm fully expected to be put to work.

Yeah well only if you're feeling up to it.

-Why wouldn't I? -Oh nothing.

I just, um, just great to have you part of it.

[Rachel] Yeah. One more slave to boss around.

Don't say I didn't warn you.

I've got something for Ben and Melissa, so...

[Dave] Yeah.

[dramatic music playing]

[Dave] Well you'll be proud of me.

Chel's outside and I didn't say a word.

[Julie] Oh good. Keep it that way.

[Dave] I've been thinking.

If her kidneys are really failing...

[Julie] Oh, no, Dave, not today.

Just hear me out. We both know the pieces fit.

At some point she's going to need a transplant

and you know I could be a compatible donor.

Whoa, whoa, hey, whoa, whoa.

Stop right there.

Now, you're really getting ahead of yourself.

Look, if it was one of the kids,

you wouldn't think twice about it.

-[Julie] No, of course not. -So what's the difference?

Well the difference is a world of difference.

The kids have got their whole lives in front of them.

-Unlike my mother who has HIV? -No, Dave.

Look I...

I know Chel means the world to you, to all of us,

but we've got a baby on the way.

Shouldn't that be our first consideration?

Yeah, well of course it is but it's not the only one.

Things can go wrong.

Look, it's a... it's a big deal.

Just don't go rushing in with offers you might...

you might regret.

I... I... I only want to help.

You can't fix everything.

Just promise me no rash offers.

[Dave] Well I don't even know if I'm compatible yet.

Promise me.

I promise.

And please don't let this get in the way of a good party.

Yeah, I get the message.

Yeah until we know I'm compatible,

there's no decision to make anyway.

[Dave] Come on guys.

What are you standing around for?

Get down to the club.

You start loading up the food.

Come on. Let's get this party started!

[Jake] Finally guys.

What kept you?

Give us a hand with this lot.

[Carbo] Sorry mate, hands full.

I just wanted to check that Warney knows what he's doing.

Yeah, no problemo, leave it to me.

So you do know what to do?

[Warney] Yeah, as soon as the speeches start...

Oh I thought it was after the speeches finished.

Yeah, well, same diff.

I'll wait for your signal and then I hit the music.

[Carbo] Check this out. One size fits all.

[Warney] Oh Jakey, nice set of coconuts.

[whistles]

[Nathan] Mom's gone crazy.

Chicken wings, rum balls, mini pineapple and ham pizzas.

Very Hawaiian.

[Carbo] Right the ice is going in my car.

Do you want to give me a hand with those eskies?

[Sammy] Oh, no, it's all right I can manage.

No genuine offer.

You don't have to fall in love with me.

Of course if you did I wouldn't complain.

If that is a pick up line, you so need help.

I've been telling him that his whole life.

Hey well, look if you're desperate there is a,

um, lamp post right there you can hump.

Oh I know I've spent too much time in the mines

when Fat Barry the cook starts to look all right

and that lamp post, heaps cuter than he is.

All right, everyone start disinfecting

the street furniture.

He's flirting with you.

No, he's not. He's just being an idiot.

An idiot that's flirting with you.

Well now you know how I feel about Layla all this time.

[Melissa] Hey do you know where mom and dad are staying?

I thought I'd give them a call. Staying?

Yeah, in Singapore for dad's meeting.

Ah...was that what they said?

What do you mean?

-Nothing. -Dermott.

I'm sorry, Mel.

I think you better talk to mom about that.

Don't bother trying to make excuses.

Dermott's told me.

I just want to hear it from you.

I've got to go.

No, I don't want to talk about it.

Dad didn't want to waste the airfare.

What?

[Melissa] He thinks the wedding will never happen,

I'll get cold feet. That's why they're not coming.

[Ben] Mel...

And mum's too scared to stand up to him.

I make one mistake

and they're going to hold it against me

for the rest of my life.

Hey, you're not going to mess up.

No.

[Ben] Come the wedding day you're going to be there

even if I have to drag you there myself.

You're going to prove them all wrong.

Except they're not going to be there.

-I'm not inviting them. -Hey come on.

[Melissa] No, I'm not.

I try, I always try

and they keep doing this to me.

I... No wonder I ran away.

-I hate them. -No, you don't.

[Melissa] No, I do.

They wouldn't even come here and meet you.

They don't even care enough for that.

I do. I hate them.

I hate them.

I hate them.

Oh poor Melissa.

I've never seen her so angry.

It's... It's like they're trying to punish her.

[Julie] Oh, right, so to prove a point

they're going to miss a milestone

in their daughter's life?

[Ben] Anyway, I think you guys should just

kick off the party without us.

What?

Well, I don't know if she's up for the whole

full on hoopla thing just yet.

You're not serious? This is for Mel.

This, this is for you and Mel.

Yeah but she's really upset, dad.

Don't you get it?

I... I wouldn't blame her

if she didn't want to show at all.

What? No, no, no, no, no, everything's organized.

We can't pull out at this late stage of the game.

[Ben] Oh, right, so it's everyone else who matters

and me and Mel we just don't count at all?

Well... Hang on, hang on, before this blows up

in our faces let's just you know,

let's just try and work it out.

No, mom.

We already told you we never wanted this big party thing.

It's... It's meant to be about us.

It's meant to be our day.

Yeah, which is why we've gone to so much trouble.

Yeah but it's not about us at all, is it?

-[Julie] Ben... -No, look, we'll get there

when we get there, okay?

If we get there.

[Julie sighs] We can't cancel it now.

Yeah, no, I know that. Just...let me talk to them.

Well you shouldn't have said that.

[Ben] Well I thought it was what you wanted.

Ben, they've been planning this for days.

At least they care.

At least they don't just buy a crock pot

and think that that's okay.

But you were upset.

Yeah I was, stupidly.

You'd think I'd be immune by now.

[sighs] I just wish dad hadn't gone so crazy.

Why does he have to make everything

such a big production?

To show how much he loves you.

My parents won't even get on a plane for me.

-[knocks on door] -Hello?

Hey.

Look you know your father just...

Just wants the best for us. We know.

I mean he's trying not to show it but

all this stuff with Chel's

really started preying on his mind.

The party was a patch of sanity

in the middle of it all.

I know.

[Julie] I mean, it's a celebration.

And if he is going a bit overboard it's just that

he wants to make it a party that you'll never forget.

That's why we're coming.

I'm not going to let my father ruin today for us.

Oh, well that was easier than I thought.

[singer] ♪ We're having a luau ♪

Nice. Very nice. G'day guys, how are you going?

There they are, the happy couple.

How are you doing? Carbo, go easy, mate.

Ted, how are you doing? Ian.

Hey, hey Warney, thanks for your help today.

We couldn't have done it without you.

-Oh. -And I'm sure that Ben

and Melissa really appreciate everything.

Oh, well you know we're practically family nowadays.

You know what they say. You can't choose them, can you?

-There you are, Stewart. -Hello.

He's a hidden treasure, isn't he?

Oh, come on. Stop it you guys.

-It's not my party. -[laughter]

Oh I know I should be happy if she's happy.

Um, I would be if I didn't want to vomit quite so much.

[laughter]

-Are you all right? -Yeah. Why wouldn't I be?

[Sammy] Well you're not still thinking about work, are you?

No. No, nothing to do with that.

Ah, do you feel like a drink?

Ah, yeah.

Hi.

I suffer from amnesia.

Do I come here often?

-Don't you ever give up? -[Dermott] No.

Not even Fat Barry would fall for that one.

Well that's where you wrong because Fat Barry is easy.

These ladies over here--

You don't stand a chance.

Want a bet?

[soft music playing]

Might I have a mai-tai?

[both laugh]

They're not too strong are they?

Um,, what are you drinking?

A virgin mai-tai. I have to keep myself nice.

Well, to the, um,, mother of the father of the groom.

You don't do things by halves, do you?

No. I've got a lot to celebrate at the moment.

You can't tell which...

turns and twists your life's going to take, can you?

-Only good ones from now on. -[Chel chuckles]

-Cheers, Dave. -[glasses clink]

Hey.

Like I said, Dad, if we're doing this,

we're going to have a party. We may as well go all out.

Oh, well yeah personally I would've liked something

a little bit smaller, you know.

Thanks, Dave, for everything.

I hope you enjoy yourself.

Thanks.

[Dave] Mm.

[Steve] Can we talk about this later?

[Layla] No, I want to talk about it now.

How come she had your phone number?

Got drunk.

And you sleep around.

Well what's good for the goose.

-What are you talking about? -You really want to know?

Well do you really want to tell me?

-[scoffs] -Layla.

Steve, the world does not stop when you go out of town, okay?

I'm not your possession.

Layla, what are you talking about?

[singer] ♪ [indistinct] ♪

Reached any decisions yet?

Ben I'm sorry about the other night.

I was out of line and if it was me

and you'd done that I probably would've decked you.

Ah, not likely, mate. I've seen the way you hit.

You know and I've been thinking that,

you know maybe it's better if Sammy never finds out.

Well it's not like I'm going to do it again

but if she was to find out and she thought

that I'd kept it from her that would be worse.

So I'm going to tell her the truth.

-I mean she deserves it. -Not now?

No. No, no, not now.

I mean after the party. This is your day.

I'm not going to do anything to ruin that.

-You're doing the right thing. -Mmm-hmm.

I can't tell you how it's going to work out

-but it's the right choice. -It's not about me anymore.

Can you please get out.

And yes all right it happened. Once or twice.

-How stupid do you think I am? -Oh come on. Been on tour.

It's... You know what happens on tours should just stay--

Then why does she keep phoning you?

I don't...

Get out of here, mate.

Steve, it only happened once.

It was a mistake and we both know that.

It was stupid and I really wish

that I could take it back.

I gave you the chance of a lifetime, Nathan.

[Nathan] I know.

This is the thanks I get.

I'm really sorry.

Get out of here, mate. Now.

Go!

-should I? -I crossed the line

and I know that.

[Nathan] Sam, Sam.

Sam please. Sam, Sam--

I knew.

I knew! For weeks I knew!

But I gave you the benefit of the doubt.

I trusted you.

Nathan's not like that.

He's nothing like my father but you are!

You're just like him! How could you do this?

-How could you lie to my face? -I'm sorry. I'm--

[Sammy] Don't. I don't want to hear it.

I just want to get through this bloody party.

[Chel] Dave! Dave you're just in time.

-I made some more mai tais. -[Dave] Oh save one for me.

I'm just about to start the speeches.

I don't, I don't have to say anything do I?

No, well, actually you just have to laugh at my jokes

even the ones that aren't funny.

Your jokes are funny.

Thanks, Chel. You having a good time?

It's... It's perfect, Dave.

Yeah, well it's your family.

And she feels good.

Look, I've been...

I've been keeping something from you.

What's that, Dave?

[Dave] I know about the treatment.

I know about the renal ward.

-Ted followed me, didn't he? -[Dave] Yeah

you left something in his car but don't worry it's okay.

No, it's not. No, I didn't. It's not--

[Dave] I spoke to some people and I looked on the net

and put two and two together.

I don't want to talk about this, Dave.

[Dave] Yeah well I know you might not want to talk

about it right now, we can talk about it later

but I don't want you to think I'm being pushy or intruding.

I just want you to know that

I'm prepared to do the tests

to see whether I'm a compatible donor.

You know I... I'm just very happy to have you back

in my life and I want to do all that I can to help.

[Ted] Come on, champ. It's that time.

All set.

This is where he pretends he hasn't been

rehearsing all week.

After the speeches we'll have a family photo,

all of us together.

Wish me luck.

Don't forget to laugh.

Well, ah, aloha!

[all] Aloha!

Welcome one and all. Ah, firstly I'd like to make

a couple of introductions. Firstly to, ah,

Melissa's brother, Dermott, who's come all the way

across from W.A.

Welcome Dermott.

[cheers]

[Dave] I hope it's worth your while.

And then I'd like to welcome

a very important addition to our family

and quite a surprise after all these years.

My mother Chel.

We're, ah, very, very thrilled

to have you here with us today.

-[cheers] -Yeah, Chel!

[Dave] All right I know it may have been said,

ah, possibly by my son,

but that I might've gone a little bit over board

and maybe I have but I just reckon

when you've got something special to celebrate,

why not do something special,

ah, for a couple of special people.

[laughter]

I write my own gags.

And here they are, Ben and Melissa!

[cheers]

[Dave] Ah, now it was suggested by my daughter

-that we ah-- -Top bloke, your boss eh?

Yeah, he's amazing.

Hey, ah, you must be pretty lucky,

you know, Julie not being jealous and all.

Let you two alone in that shed all day.

Shut up, Carbo.

That's a stupid thing to say.

Sorry. I was just joking.

[Dave] Ah, I'm not going to deny it. Guilty as charged.

We are making a big splash and why not?

It's all about family, getting you all in the room

at the same time.

And, ah, welcoming new additions

and looking forward to a very bright future.

So I just want you all to, all to charge your glasses,

um, raise them to Ben and Melissa.

[all] Ben and Melissa!

Woo!

On you, Benno!

Whoa, easy there, tiger.

Oh yep, yep.

Chrissy, wait up.

What was all that about?

Look I was joking. Honest.

What's the matter?

[Chrissy] Oh God.

It's so pathetic.

It's just...

it's just a little crush. [sighs]

Bloody hell.

Oh, Carbo, you know I'd never do anything.

[Carbo] Yeah. Sure.

-Bloody hell. -Hurry up, mate. We're on.

Jake?

G'day, Chrissy.

Warney's got the music ready. Where's Dermott?

Yeah, coming mate.

Come on.

[Ted] Chel.

-It wasn't that corny, was it? -Oh, sorry?

Dave's speech. There were a few gags there.

You know I'm just... I'm just heading off.

I got a bit tired so I think--

-You all right? -Yeah, I'm fine.

-[Ted] You sure? -Yeah. Thanks, Ted.

What a total unmitigated disaster.

Why didn't you look after him?

I said is this the right sort of world for my son.

Dave, I didn't hold a gun to his head.

Look, I didn't say I tell you what why don't you

go jump my girlfriend's bones. He made that decision

-by himself. -Oh, okay guys.

She just up and left.

Sorry, mate.

-to the Pilbara tomorrow. -[Julie] Hmm.

Oh, Dave.

-She's gone. -What?

[Rachel] What do you mean 'gone'?

[Dave] Cleared out her stuff and moved out.

Well, well did she say where?

No, no forwarding address. Nothing.

Her flat mate said even Chel wasn't sure herself.

[Rachel] But I don't understand.

She wasn't even here for the Nathan and Sammy show.

[Dave] Look I ah...

-I offered to be tested. -You what?

[Dave] Well look if her kidneys are failing,

I want to do something. I want to help.

-Bloody hell. -I don't believe you.

Granddad, you're not helping.

Yeah but still, bloody hell.

[Dave] Maybe I did rush in but she's my mother.

[Rachel] It's okay. We'll, we'll find her, Dad.

I don't know what disaster to deal with first.

Yeah, I tried to call Sammy but she's gone home

with Trish and her phone's turned off.

Where's Nathan?

Nathan's not answering either. God only knows where he is.

[Dave] If this is what I can do for your engagement,

I'd hate to think what's going to happen at the wedding.

Ah, sorry but there's no way we're letting you

anywhere near the wedding.
