[theme music playing]

[Nathan] Sometimes I get the feeling

we're all just big kids in a grown-up body.

[Retta] What are you doing?

-Chitting. -Excuse me?

[Ben] Growing these little root sprouts.

Are you sure you don't want to spell check that?

Look it up if you don't believe me.

No, I believe you. I just don't care.

-[Carbo] Ooh, ah! -Good one.

Oi, uh, did you sort out the gasket caps

for that Chevy guy?

[Carbo] Yeah, after brekkie, promise.

-Ooh, yeah. See that? -Here we go, baby.

Oh. Ooh. Good morning to you, too.

-Hey! Give me that! -Yes, Ben, yours is coming.

Hey, who didn't get the milk?

[Nathan] And when I say people can be childish,

I'm not just talking about my housemates.

Grandad?

Uh, what are you doing?

Ah my newspaper's gone, walkabout.

-Oh. -Oh, well.

While I'm out, I might as well have breakfast

at the cafe.

Want to join me?

Since when do you go out for breakfast?

Oh, it's a free country.

Tom's not going to be there, right?

Well, that would be a bonus.

He'll move out soon.

You reckon?

He's got it pretty easy where he is right now.

Hang in there, all right?

Yeah, had a coffee mug once that said that.

Oh.

Dad, at risk of sounding like Ben, can I please

-borrow some milk? -What is this?

The bloody corner shop? I reckon you should start

-charging him. -Don't think I haven't

-thought about it. -Thanks.

[Julie] No listen if you ever need a chat,

why don't you just drop by for a cuppa?

Okay, take care. Bye.

-Who was that? -Hamish.

-He's coming over? -[Julie] No, no, no.

I just, um, I put the offer out there.

He's having a hard time.

He needs a bit of moral support.

Are you back at work, Tom?

Sure am.

Third day this week.

You're not overdoing it, are you?

No. It keeps me out of trouble.

So you're enjoying it, then?

Well, it's nice to be paid

for an honest day's work I suppose.

What does he do, this mate of yours?

Oh, a bit of this, a bit of that.

Well, I better push off.

-I'll catch you tonight. -Bye.

[Dave] Bye. See you later.

Actually, I better get a move on, too.

Where are you off to?

A class, with Donna.

What sort of a class, Mom?

She was hoping you wouldn't ask that.

No, it's a woman's group.

A kind of self-empowerment thing.

Burning bras and bagging men.

Oh, ha-ha, we moved on decades ago.

No, Donna's just asked me along and I'm curious,

plus it gets me out of the house, so...

-Okay. -[cell phone chimes]

Oh.

Hmm. Let me guess? Hamish.

He's just texting to say thank you.

Just texting to say thank you.

[Nathan] Yep, there's a big kid in all of us, even Dad.

[Donna] These are for you.

For the class.

The self-empowerment class?

Well, that's a form of self-empowerment, yes.

-Ooh-- -It's wonderful, Julie.

It's so liberating.

So energizing.

-You'll love it. -Uh, wait, love what exactly?

What are these for?

[Katya] Burlesque, ladies.

The tantalizing art of the tease.

The art of Salome, of Gypsy Rose Lee.

Any newcomers?

Ah. Welcome.

No need to feel self-conscious.

Burlesque is for everybody.

No matter what your shape,

what your personality,

you believe it, ladies,

-and you know how to use it! -[women giggle]

Yes, ladies, laugh, enjoy yourselves.

Burlesque should be fun.

And if you're shy, use that shyness

-to fascinate and surprise! -Ah!

[laughs] Oh!

Now, for those who haven't brought their own,

ah, I have costumes.

Ladies, I'd like you to choose something

that makes you feel sexy.

And then I think we'll begin

with a little bit of fan work.

Reveal the seductress within.

Ladies.

-Um, excuse me-- -It's all right.

-I brought us some stuff. -Oh, no.

No, Donna, I really don't think this is me.

Oh, you'd be surprised.

I didn't think it was me at first, either, but it's true.

It gives you confidence.

-Oh, but Donna-- -There's a hidden seductress

in all of us.

She just has to be unleashed.

Has anyone seen my keys?

Ooh. Hey.

Hey, yo. When do we get more spuds out of these things?

-A few months, Emma reckons. -Geez. What's the point?

There's plenty at the supermarket.

You see that's the problem. It's all about now,

-sooner, faster. -Huh?

Have you ever heard about "slow living"?

What? Life around here?

No, Emma told me about it.

It's this cool lifestyle movement

based on slowing things right down,

smelling the roses.

Mate, I do that all day at work.

Yeah, well, I'm going to give it a go.

Oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God.

-[Carbo] Oh. -I just got a job!

-Are you serious? -Yeah! My lecturer

has this friend who wants his cafe revamped

and she showed him my portfolio

-and I got the gig! -What a star!

[Retta] Yeah. I get paid and everything.

It's my first grown-up job.

-Oh, that's my girl. -It's my first grown-up job.

-[Carbo] Ah, yeah! -It's my first...

I can't do this. I'm not ready.

-Of course you are. -Yeah, but what if I'm not?

Oh, look, trust me, you're good at this.

And if not, just do what Ben says Emma says,

take it slow.

Slow and steady wins the race, eh.

Okay. [giggles]

Tom!

Tom!

[jazz music playing]

[Katya] Remember, ladies,

what you conceal,

the audience wants you to reveal.

Yes!

The aim is to tempt,

to tease... Ooh, lovely.

Yes. Yes.

Use the eyes, ladies.

[women laugh]

[Katya] Fix the gaze.

One minute, approachable, the next, aloof.

Fabulous, girls.

Now ooze, Julie, ooze.

Smolder and captivate!

Oh! Well done, ladies.

Fabulous work.

I'm afraid that's our time for today.

Oh, I'm sure all those loved ones in your lives

are going to appreciate all the progress you've made.

Now, I have homework for you.

Burlesque wouldn't be burlesque

without something revealing to wear

for that first performance.

-Performance? -[Katya] Julie darling,

there's no point in coming here

if you're not going to perform.

Do you mean lingerie?

Whatever makes you feel desirable

and looks fabulous in heels.

Ha.

Well, my inner seductress I think is still chained

to the railings, not quite unleashed.

Oh, come on, Julie, you were great in there.

Oh! Says she who oozes.

Well, you can ooze, too.

You just need a bit of practice.

What for? My debut performance?

Dave won't know what's hit him.

Ah, yes, he will, a mouthful of feathers.

You're all so confident in there.

Yeah, well, so will you be, confident and empowered.

Yes, well, not quite the self-empowerment I thought

-you were talking about. -No, but if I told you

the truth, you wouldn't have come.

Ah, you know me so well.

-Will you come again? -Maybe.

Then we better do our homework.

[Julie giggles]

-[Dave] Jules? -Ah, yeah?

Hey, you're early.

Yeah, it turned into an easy day.

-How are you? -Good, great.

[Dave] Oh, good. How was the self-empowerment class?

Oh, well, a bit of an eye opener actually.

-[Dave] Yeah? -Yeah.

It was just a bunch of women

in a room expressing themselves.

Oh, yeah?

-Should I be worried? -About what?

Well, now that you're empowered, am I going to have

-to pull my head in? -[laughs] No darling.

I've always been empowered. It was just a refresher.

Oh, yeah.

-What's this? -Oh, nothing.

I just, uh, did a bit of shopping.

-Everything okay? -Yeah, good.

Actually, I might just go and check on Ruby.

She was a bit grizzly at day care so...

Right. Okay.

[Coby] And there I am, hanging by me stubbies,

German Shepherd snapping at my feet,

meanwhile Johnno's pissed off. He's--

[Nathan] You've got to be kidding me.

What?

[Nathan] You didn't actually wear stubbies, did you?

-Yes. Of course. -[Dave] Saved you

from becoming dog meat.

[Coby] Yes, exactly what I--

Mind if I join you blokes?

No, mate, no.

[Tom] Oh, I reckon I've earned one of those today.

[Dave] What was on the job sheet?

Oh, you know, a bit of this, a bit of that.

[laughs] You always say that.

Well, it's not rocket science.

I'm not curing cancer.

[Nathan] No, pretty much the same as yesterday,

-aren't you? -Yeah, pretty much.

Sorry, Cobes, you were... You were in the middle

-of a yarn there. -No, no, no.

It doesn't matter.

So where's my old mate Ted today?

I haven't seen him. He must still be out.

That wouldn't have anything to do with me

coming back, would it?

No, he's surprisingly busy for a retired gent.

-Anyone for anothery? -Yeah, I'm up for anothery!

Get us one while you're on your feet, will you?

[nervous laugh] Anyone else?

No, no, I'm done. Excuse me.

[Jake] No, I'm good. I'll see you tomorrow.

-See you guys. -You have a good one.

I saw you today.

-What's that? -I said I saw you.

You were at that pub on High Street.

No, it wasn't me, mate.

I was working today.

No, sure it was. I called out to you.

-Did I answer? -[Nathan] No.

Because it wasn't me.

It wasn't... Yes, it was.

I was getting a parcel out. I saw you. You--

Natho, I think you should get your eyes checked.

[Nathan] Just like when we're kids,

we don't always get the straight answers.

-[Julie] Oh. -You tired?

Yeah, a bit.

Yeah, well, how about we have that early night

-we've been talking about? -Oh, it sounds like bliss.

Okay, well I'll have a quick shower.

-Mm-hmm. -I won't be long

and I'll see you in there.

Okay.

[yawns] Actually, tired's not the word for it,

I'm bushed. What about you, Tom?

What are you up to? Any plans?

No, no. I'm bushed, too.

Yeah, I'm not surprised with all the hours

-you've been putting in. -Yeah.

I thought I might put my feet up

in front of the TV if that's okay?

Yeah, no, no, go for your life.

Why? What's going on?

Chicago, the multi Academy Award winning--

Oh, musical. Yeah, yeah, yeah!

No, that's the one that's got, um, Catherine Zeta-Jones.

I've always wanted to see that.

Yeah, and it's set in a prison.

-My kind of movie. -[laughs]

Well, I'm up for a bit of song and dance if you are.

Ah, yeah. Yeah, all right.

Yeah. I'll watch the start anyway.

-Budge up. -Oh!

All right I'll just be heading in for that quick shower, then.

Yeah, you said.

-See you in there. -Yep, won't be long.

Oh, I think we're just in time.

Mm.

[Carbo] Geez, it's like a library in here.

-Boring. -[Nathan] Shh.

[Carbo] So, who's up for going out, eh?

Uh, I can't. I said I'd show the cafe owner

-some ideas tomorrow. -Oh, well, you know

what they say about all work and no play.

It makes you rich.

Guys, I really need to concentrate.

Okay. I'm sorry, babe.

Ooh, lots to choose from.

Yeah, I'm leaning towards the, um... The warmer palettes

because they stimulate the appetite.

Mm. It's making me hungry already.

[Emma] Okay. I get it. Just because a message

is slow, doesn't mean the class has to be.

Slow? Was the guy even breathing?

Okay, now you're exaggerating,

and besides, um... Hi, everyone.

Ah, this is Emma. Emma, this is my brother Nathan,

and my housemates, Carbo and Retta.

-Nice to meet you. -Yeah, you, too.

-We've heard a lot about you. -Really?

[Carbo] Actually, uh, me and Nathan met you

once before, the night you met Benno,

at the Boat Club.

They have heard a lot about me.

Don't worry, it's all good.

So how was the slow living talk?

[both] Slow.

[giggles]

Come in the kitchen. I'll show you my chittings.

[Emma] Ooh. There's a line you don't hear every day.

-So that's Emma? -Yep.

The girl he almost went home with.

[Retta] Mm. The girl he now works with and--

-[Carbo] Hmm. -Hangs out with.

-So... -Hangs out with, Retta, okay?

That's it. It's no big deal.

[TV playing]

I can't believe how amazing some of that dancing is.

I can't believe how amazing some of the cellmates are.

They weren't that cute in my corridor,

-I can tell you. -[laughs]

Probably just as well.

What's going on?

Mm.

I didn't know how long you were going to be

so we started watching Chicago.

-Oh, right. -I, uh... I thought

we were having an early night.

Yeah, it is early. Come and join us.

Well, I've just been waiting for you in there

so maybe you could join me.

Oh, just a bit longer?

Yeah, well, Jules, you know that I can't, um,

sleep unless you're... You're with me.

Okay, well, I'll be there. [laughs]

-Okay. Yeah. -[Julie] Okay, then.

[laughs] Duffer.

He doesn't know what he's missing.

-[Dave] Ted. -[Ted] Dave.

Ah, there you are.

[Dave] Good evening, Ted.

[Julie] How's your night?

Oh, dinner in Chinatown, a bit of a walk around.

-Nothing special. -We're watching Chicago.

It's fantastic. Why don't you come and join us?

Yeah, come on, mate. Plenty of room here.

No, not tonight, thanks.

You will tell me if I'm in the way, won't you?

No, Tom, you're not in the way.

He's just taking some time to adjust, that's all.

Mm.

Here.

Oh, ta.

-Oh. -Oh. Back on.

You... Are you sure you're all right to drive?

Yeah, it was one light beer an hour ago, I'm fine.

Okay. Well, just drive slowly, okay?

I will, and you go slowly with those potatoes.

[laughs] Just wait till they're green and then...

Yeah, and then plant them.

See? I do listen to some things you say.

Not everything, but some.

[chuckles] Good night.

Good night. I'll see you at work.

All right, well, I might get an early night, then.

Benno, it's only nine o'clock.

Welcome to life in the slow lane.

Up with the sun, to bed with the sun.

You get more out of life.

Hey, uh, what did you guys think of Emma?

Oh, she's lovely.

Yeah, she's good value, isn't she?

All right, good night.

Good night.

See? What did I tell you guys?

Don't make this any bigger than it is.

But that's what big kids do.

They lose perspective,

blow things out of proportion.

Oh, Dad! Whatever happened to knocking?

Well, I didn't know you were in here.

What are you doing?

Nothing. I was just stretching.

No, you weren't.

-You were dancing. -Pfft.

[Ted] I used to catch you in front of the mirror

when you were a kid doing your jazz ballet.

Yeah, um, are we going to see you for dinner tomorrow night?

I'm not sure yet. I might have something on.

Oh, Dad, you can't keep avoiding us

just because you don't see eye to eye with Tom.

Are you finished in here?

He's not going to be here forever.

You're all so sure about that, aren't you?

Dad, come on. He's trying to rebuild his life.

Oh. So that's what he's doing.

Oh, please, can you just stop this?

Just try to get along with him.

Mm.

Oh.

[door closes]

[door opens]

[sighs]

[Julie] What are you looking at?

Nothing.

-I just spoke to Dad. -Yeah.

You know, it's... It's actually getting really ridiculous now.

One of them's got to go, and it can't be Dad,

no matter how much of a child he--

Just forget about them and come here.

-Yeah, well, just a second. -Your hands are soft enough.

-Oh, no, darling, I'm tired. -Yeah, well, that's why

I suggested that we have an early night.

Yeah, I know. The day just caught up with me,

-that's all. -Right.

All that self-empowering and, um, shopping?

-Yeah. -What did you buy anyway?

[scoffs]

-Since when do you care? -Well, I care plenty.

-Let me show you. -Um, no, no, no, darling,

not tonight.

Oh, come on, it hasn't been that long.

No. Just not very often.

Oh.

Tomorrow?

Okay.

It's in the diary.

Okay.

Good night.

Sleep well.

[Julie] Sorry, darling.

-[Coby whistles] Hey! Hi. -[Nathan] Hey. What's up?

I have a bloke that needs a fuel injector rail

for an '04 model Civic.

Have you got anything like that?

Ooh, uh, I'm not sure.

It's not to say I can't get one.

-Send me his details. -Will do.

-Ah, good morning, boys. -[both] Hey.

Your grandad's, I believe?

Ah, yes. Someone nicked it yesterday.

-He wasn't too happy. -Ooh.

Well, I'm off like a bucket of prawns in the sun.

You working with that mate again?

-Yep. No rest for the wicked. -What are you up to?

A bit of this, a bit of that.

I meant to tell you, something really weird

happened yesterday.

-With Tom? -Yep, yep.

I saw him going into a pub about 10:00, 10:15,

and then when I asked him, he said it wasn't him.

So you... You got it wrong.

No, it was definitely him. He just denied it.

It's weird, don't you reckon?

No, you've got the wrong guy.

Which pub?

[Julie] Yeah, but at least that way you get to spend

a bit more time with Jack.

No, I know it's not ideal,

but it's a step in the right direction.

Yeah, okay. Hamish, I've got to go.

Bye.

Ah. The famous Hamish.

Oh, don't start.

They've set a date for the custody appeal.

Well, it seems his wife's starting to soften

on the visitation rights, so that's good.

Yeah. It's, uh... It's great.

-Yes, that is great. -Look, to tell you the truth,

I'm just struggling to get my head around

-this whole Hamish thing. -What?

Well, you know, a friend tell you that he fancies you

and then you invite him around if he ever needs to talk?

Oh, go... It lasted five minutes.

He's over it. And I thought we were over it.

-We discussed this. -Well, maybe I'm just having

a little bit of a delayed reaction.

Oh. Yeah, but we're okay, aren't we?

Yeah, I'm just feeling a bit...

-What? Jealous? -Yeah.

Ooh, well, you should do that more often.

-What? -Expose your jealous side.

It's cute.

[chuckles]

I'm on a promise, remember?

[Julie] Yeah, you do.

[Carbo] Hey, aren't you going to meet your cafe guy today?

Mm-hmm.

Well, um, you better get a move on.

-Retta? -I can't do it.

-Can't do what? -Make a decision.

Do I go with... With this one or with this one?

Or this one? Or this one?

Oi, hey, Retta, slow down, slow down.

I can't... I can't make up my mind.

[Carbo] Just show him your top three.

Yeah, but which three are they?

You know what? This reminds me of my junior soccer days.

Oh, here we go.

-What? What? -Yeah.

There I was on the field eight years old

and I get my first ever penalty kick,

the match depends on it, and guess what?

-You choked? -Big time.

-Well, how long for? -Who knows? Time stopped.

But then I heard this chanting,

"Carbo! Carbo!

-Carbo!" -It was just his mom.

Anyway, somehow I suck it up and I kicked that mother

-with everything I'd got. -Yeah, the ball, not his mom.

Right, and scored a goal?

-He wishes. -I lost my balance.

-Fell flat on my bum. -Carbo, that's awful.

-Yeah, but then Tania... -Tania Gogos,

the prettiest girl in the school, comes up to me,

feels sorry for me, gives me my first-ever kiss

-on the lips. -Imagine that?

Why are you telling me this?

That was my point.

[Carbo] Because I gave it a go.

Something good came out of it.

Now, you give it a go, too, eh?

But what do I do?

Go with your gut instinct.

Come on.

Okay.

This one. This one.

And this one.

That's my girl.

Thank you. I've got to go.

Good luck.

[Nathan] Maybe Carbo, for once in his life,

was the grown-up around here.

Yay.

Oh, g'day, mate.

Fancy seeing you here.

Yeah, I thought I'd check this place out for lunch.

Oh, yeah. Pull up a pew.

The food's not bad, I guess.

So you've been here before?

Have you been talking to Nathan?

He said he'd seen you here.

I've been here before, but not yesterday.

Yeah, what about the job?

Your mate?

Is this his place, or...

Can I trust you, can I trust you...

Come here.

Listen, I wasn't going to let you in on this,

but since you're so interested,

I'm cooking up the biggest armed robbery

-this country's ever seen. -Oh!

-You know that's not funny. -Then why am I laughing?

No, I don't want to see you back inside.

I'm not a bloody idiot.

[Coby] That's what you said last time.

And I don't want you hurting the Rafters.

You listen to me.

There's no way I'm going back inside.

If you are worried about something,

then you say it to my face.

You don't follow me around like a bloody bad smell.

For your information I'm not up to anything.

I'm on my break, reading the paper.

But time's up.

Oh, listen, if you're going to have something to eat,

I'd stay away from the pork pies.

I found out from rugged personal experience.

[Nathan] How come when talking with Tom,

Coby's always left feeling like a kid again?

[jazz music playing]

[Katya] Now one foot in front of the other, ladies,

like you're walking a tightrope.

Gloves, slowly.

Now work the hips, girls.

Moving your chairs.

Now be aware of your bodies,

making beautiful shapes.

Visualize that special person.

-Think of Dave. -Why?

Who are you thinking of?

Dino at the fruit shop.

Ah!

[Katya] Good, Donna, now naughty chair,

naughty chair, naughty chair.

And kick.

Turn.

-Oh! -[laughs]

I told you it'd end in feathers.

[Katya] Big finish, ladies.

Oh.

[laughs]

[Jake] I'm telling you, he was like some guy off the news.

There were newspapers piled everywhere,

-rancid milk bottle. -[Coby] He's not kidding.

I opened the fridge and it smelt,

uh, the worst I've ever...

-G'day, g'day, g'day. -[Jake] Hey.

Hey, mate. Do you want to join us?

Don't mind if I do.

-There you go. -Oh, ta.

[laughs] Did you get any work out of this one

after lunch today?

Yeah, if you can call it that.

[Tom] Good.

Saw him down the boozer.

What? At lunchtime?

Geez, Coby, you know better than that.

-No, what? -Is that where you got to?

Yeah, thanks for letting us know, Tom.

[Tom] Sorry, Cobes. I didn't meant

-to drop you in it. -[Dave] Come on, Coby.

You know drinking during working hours is--

Ease, easy. I wasn't drinking.

Then what were you doing down the pub?

Just a cheap feed. I wouldn't drink on the job.

Actually, I might swap this for a coldy.

[Dave sighs]

Does anyone else want another one?

-Yeah, sure. -I'm all right, man.

[Tom] Have you got something to say to me?

Don't stuff this up for me.

That's not exactly the apology I was expecting.

Ah, I've got something good going here.

I'm trying to turn my life around.

And what? Grandad's throwing a spanner in the works, is he?

Now I've got something to say to you.

You owe me, Coby, and you know it.

Yeah, well, you owe me, too.

Oh, you've got an ace up your sleeve, do you?

Something to keep me in place?

That's not what I meant.

Don't you forget, you're a Jennings,

not a Rafter.

Just, uh... Just chasing up that beer.

-[Tom] Oh, no worries. -Yeah.

[Tom] Come on, Cobes.

Hop to it.

He's a mystery to me, that boy.

-Coby, are you okay? -Yeah, couldn't be better.

Just cut the bull, okay. What, why were you at the pub?

-Oh... -What's going on with Tom?

-What did he say? -Well, there's no point.

I mean, he's full of crap. You both are.

Stop.

Was he threatening you?

The guy took me in when everyone else dumped me.

He is the only one who gave a rats.

I know your parents took off, Co--

just tell me what happened.

[Coby] Oh, what's the difference? What--

You can't change anything.

Coby, you've got to know that you can trust me by now.

-You want to know? -Yes.

-[Coby] You want to know? -Yes, I do.

Okay. One day I was at the hospital,

Tom came to see me

and told me I was coming to live with him.

And why were you at the hospital?

-My stepdad put me there. -Oh.

So it's been me and my grandpa ever since.

Don't look at me like that. It toughened me up.

Toughened you up? You were a kid!

Oh, but I had Grandad. He looked after me.

He could've put me in a foster home, but he didn't.

It's always been me and him. I owe him.

-How was work? -I heard something today

no man should ever have to hear.

[Carbo] Yeah, like what?

Emma and I overheard Donna talking on the phone

to someone about what kind of underwear she was wearing.

-What's wrong with that? -It turns out

-she was talking to my mum. -Ooh.

Yeah, I know. It's disgusting.

Hey, uh, can I talk to you for a minute?

Yeah, sure.

Take a seat.

You've been talking a lot about Emma lately,

spending a lot of time with her, hanging out...

So?

Well, she seems like a nice girl.

I wondered if you and her--

We're just friends.

Okay.

Good.

Carbo...

Ben?

Okay, you're seriously starting to weird me out.

Thanks for the chat, dad.

A fish and a star.

-If you shake them... -[Ruby cooing]

-[Dave] Hamish. -G'day, Dave.

-Ah, Ted let me in. -Ah.

[Ted] Oh, do you want a cuppa, mate?

[Dave] No, I'm all right, thanks.

Well, I think someone's had an accident.

-[chuckles] -[Ted] Look, uh...

I'll change her if you take over here.

Yeah.

Oh. Ooh.

What have you been eating, Rubes?

[laughs] Careful, you'll embarrass her.

[Ted] Oh, she's embarrassing herself.

Oh.

You're wondering why I'm here.

I was in the area. Jules said to drop in.

How do you have it?

A standard white with two, thanks.

So, how's Jack?

Great.

As cheeky as ever.

Banana cake?

Um, I'm fine for now. Thanks.

[women giggling]

Ooh, Hamish.

-Hey, how are you? -He was just passing.

-Ah. -[Hamish] Yeah. Ted said

you wouldn't be too much longer.

No, no. It's lovely to see you.

Ah, Donna, this is Hamish. Hamish, Donna.

-Jules has mentioned you. -Here I am.

[Julie] Oh, so you've got the tea and the cake out.

Well, you're being a good host.

Yeah. The best.

Dave?

-I'm sorry. -Ah, maybe I should go...

No, no, no, stay. I won't be a second.

-Hey, what's wrong? -I don't know. I'm reacting.

-To what? -Him being here.

Yeah, oh, Dave, he's just a friend.

Yeah, who has the hots for you.

No, hey, we've been through this.

Yeah, I know. And I still don't like it!

[softly] Keep your voice down.

Maybe he and Donna will hit it off.

Come on, she's too old for him.

Oh, hang on, hang on, he likes older women.

-Have you been drinking? -I've had a couple of beers

with the boys. I know what I'm saying.

Do you? Do you know how childish you sound?

And who are you buying sexy lingerie for?

How do you know about that?

I happened to find it.

In my underwear drawer?

Well, what do you think I'm buying it for?

Well, I don't know! I'm not reaping

-any of the benefits, am I!? -Oh!

Do you know, I have no idea where this is coming from,

but I can't deal with it right now.

Just grow up.

You're embarrassing yourself.

[door closes]

Oh, no, Hamish. Please, don't go.

I don't think it's a good idea if I stay.

No, no, no, Dave's just in a bad mood.

He'll calm down.

Why don't you show Donna a picture of Jack?

-That's Hamish's boy. -Oh, lovely.

No, I really should go. I just wanted to say goodbye.

-I shouldn't have come. -No, Hamish, I invited you.

Thank you.

For everything. You're a very good listener.

And I won't drop around again.

-No, Hamish. -I'll see you at day care.

It was lovely to meet you, Donna.

This is ridiculous.

-He seems really nice. -Oh, he is.

He's... He's... He's lovely.

He's a friend. A good friend.

-Hamish gone? -Yeah, he had to leave.

That's a pity.

-Oh, come on, Jules. -No, you know what?

I don't want to talk about it, okay?

Let's take our tea outside.

[Nathan] The big kid in Dad was definitely

in the doghouse.

Boom.

[Nathan] Ah, there you are.

Hey, how'd you go with the injector rail?

Yep. Done deal.

Good stuff.

Hey, um, don't worry about that Ben and Emma stuff.

-It's all sorted. -All sorted? What do you mean?

Well, I spoke to Benno and, you know,

I think he knows it's too soon.

-Too soon for what? -Well, to move on from Mel.

Oh, no, no, Carbo, Ben's old enough

-to make his own decisions. -Yeah, I know

-but something like that... -Has nothing to do with you.

It's Ben's life. You've just got to let him

live it the way he wants to, okay?

Okay. Hey. How'd you go?

She showed the cafe guy her ideas.

Ah. Was it...

Did it go... not good?

Hang on, are you playing silly buggers?

-She does that. -[Retta] No.

He just absolutely loved the "Sunrise" scheme!

-Oh, yeah! -He didn't want any changes,

-not one! -Hey, that's awesome! Yeah!

We spent the whole afternoon buying the paints

and the fabric. And...

-He already paid me. -Oh, now we're talking!

-Yeah! -[chuckles]

And it's all because of you.

-Me? -Him?

I was having a serious meltdown

and you knew exactly what to say.

-So wise. -Him?

No, you did all the work.

I knew you could do it.

I'm just going next door for dinner.

Count me in.

[Ben] Are these veggies local?

Since when do you care?

Slow living, Mum.

It's best to buy your veggies local.

It's more in tune with your body.

-Rachel, is that you? -[chuckles]

It's true. Rachel would approve.

I might tell her about it.

That's our dessert.

Well, what if all your friends had eaten it this afternoon?

-Oh! -Are you two fighting?

Oh, forget it, just forget it.

[Ted] What's for dinner?

-[Julie] Chicken salad. -[Ted] Great.

Are you staying in tonight, Ted?

Well, I do live here.

Dad.

Well, if I choose to stay in tonight, I will.

Pull your horns in, mate. I was just asking.

Yeah, I know you really care.

-Ted. -What?

What's going on?

You feel like a game of cards later?

Oh, spare me.

I reckon that's a great idea.

Not interested.

And you think I should grow up?

Well, you should grow up.

Look, I got it wrong, okay?

-People make mistakes. -[Julie] Oh, oh, no--

-Who, who made a mistake? -You know, you were so rude.

He is a friend of mine and he was a guest

-in this house. -Yeah, well, so is Tom,

and I don't see you giving your father a hard time

-about his attitude. -Don't talk about me

-like I'm not in the room. -It's all right, mate.

-I can handle it. -Yeah, well,

-you shouldn't have to. -No, you're embarrassing him.

No, let's just get this all out in the open.

Guys! Why don't you all just grow up!

I mean, are you even listening to yourselves?

Do you know how lucky we are to be a part of this family?

Ah, why are you arguing over stupid crap?

Grandad?

I am not in the mood for poker.

[Nathan] They say kids are fast learners.

I guess Grandad was an exception.

I thought Ted was doing the dishes?

Oh, I let him off the hook.

Tom was hovering.

What do we do about them?

Don't know.

We can't force them to like each other.

Yeah. You're right.

Dave.

He's just a friend.

I know, and I'm sorry.

I was acting like a kid.

I mean, of course he's going to find you attractive.

-He's only human. -[chuckles]

But we trust each other, don't we?

Yeah. Of course.

So, that jealous kid I saw in there this morning.

Oh, he's in all of us, just waiting to be unleashed.

Unleashed?

I like that word.

What's this?

Press play.

[Dave] What?

Press play.

[both laughing]

-[Julie laughs] -Oh.

-Oh. Morning, Tom. -G'day.

There's some scrambled eggs in the pan if you'd like some.

-Ah, thank you kindly. -G'day, Ted.

-Did you sleep well? -[Ted] Like a baby.

-[Julie] What about you, Tom? -Oh, yeah, me, too,

once the show was over.

-Show? -There was a little something

going on.

Oh. [chuckles]

No, it was great to hear a bit of laughter

around about the place,

which is, uh, why I've decided that you won't need

to worry about me anymore, I'll be leaving after brekkie.

-Leaving? -Yeah, no, look,

it's been great,

and thanks for helping me get back on my feet,

but I've got a feeling I might be

-beginning to get under yours. -Oh.

Well, I guess there won't be any objections

from young Ted, eh?

[Dave] Dad, don't worry about him.

It's been great to have you here.

Yeah, you have been great, Tom.

Ah, just not everyone's cup of tea, eh?

What's news?

Well, someone's finally leaving.

-Leaving? -Something we said?

-[Nathan] You're going? -Yeah, and I see

that somebody's come out to gloat.

Oh, I'm just putting out the garbage.

-I'll bet you are. -[Nathan] Oh, come on, guys,

you're family. You're going to keep seeing each other.

You might as well get along.

Well said.

That's fine by me, it's fine.

Grandad?

Come on.

-Fine. -Well, shake on it.

-Tom? -Ah...

-Ah, here we go. -Oh, my God.

-What's going on? -Hey, Nathan,

grab his other arm.

And Ted, call an ambulance.

-[Tom] No... -[Dave] Come on.

You all right. You all right?

You all right?

Don't worry, it's good news considering the circumstances.

-Oh. -What happened?

Well, we suspect an arrhythmia.

It's possibly stress induced, but you got him here

-at the right time. -So, he's going to be okay?

Well, we'll keep him in for a few days,

run some more tests, maybe put him on blood thinners,

but with the right diet and lifestyle changes,

yeah, he should be fine.

-Great. -[Dave] Thanks, Doc.

An arrhythmia. Join the club.

-Does he live alone? -Well, it's okay.

He can... He can stay with us.

-When can I see him? -Yeah, now.

-Just keep it low key, okay? -Yeah.

-Thanks. -Thanks.

[Julie] I told you. Nothing to worry about.

Not quite.

Who's going to tell Grandad that Tom's coming to stay, huh?

Well...

So, you're going to live after all.

Of course. I just wanted some attention.

[Coby chuckles]

Are you sure that's all it was?

-What else? -Oh, I don't know,

the doctor reckons maybe you were stressed.

What've I got to be stressed about?

Except for that idiot, Ted.

Well, I got your back up yesterday.

Ah, you meant well.

You were trying to keep me out of trouble.

I should've thanked you.

Nothing like a heart scare

to change a man's point of view, eh?

-[chuckles] -Hmm.

And the fact is I was a bit embarrassed.

-What for? -Use your head.

Getting sprung down the pub by nosy Nathan.

But you didn't do anything wrong.

I wasn't working, but was I?

[sputters] Yeah, so why did you lie to him?

How many bloody jobs do you reckon there are

out there for an ex-con my age?

It's going to take time.

Besides, the last thing I wanted was to hang around

the house with bloody Ted.

I didn't want everyone knowing I was sitting at the pub

-all day like some no-hope. -Yes, fair enough.

Just keep it under your hat, will you?

Keep it all under your hat.

And listen to what I said yesterday, I meant that.

Your loyalty's with me.

-You can count on mine. -Okay.

I'm not here to upset your apple cart, mate.

I'm here looking out for you.

-I know. I know that. -And this new family of ours,

they're nice and all that sort of stuff,

but they haven't stood the test of time.

Not like you and me.

We come first.

Always.

Yeah?

That's my boy.

[Julie] Well, it was an arrhythmia.

-No, he's okay. -[Ted] The same as Ben?

Yeah, it looks like it.

Oh. Any idea what caused it?

-[Julie] Stress, most likely. -Mm.

Did I push it a bit too far?

You know, I've got my problems with the guy.

No, Dad, Dad, it wasn't your fault.

And a part of you was just protecting us.

We know that. Okay?

Anyway, look, I... I've got to go.

-I'll see you at home. -Bye, love.

Arrhythmia?

Maybe he really is part of the family.

-[Ruby cooing] -Whether we like it or not.

Geez. Ted's going to be thrilled about that.

[Julie] No, no. He said he'll behave.

Yeah, don't worry about him, Tom.

-We'll look after you. -Yeah.

I'll get you into some good eating habits, exercise.

-All the fun stuff, hey? -Pull the plug now.

[Ben] Just remember to take it really slow.

You know, breathe, enjoy the moment.

[Tom] Sure, Ben. Whatever you say.

[Ben] You know, I actually had a heart murmur.

-I'm just trying to help. -Oh, right.

[Tom] Yeah, I know, mate, you're all trying to help

and I do appreciate it, but I am not your responsibility.

-I'm his. -[Julie] No, Tom,

-it's no trouble. -Yeah, we're all already

pretty diet conscious because of my--

-Waistline. -Cholesterol.

[Nathan] Cholesterol, sorry.

[Ben] Yeah, when he remembers.

[Dave] Well, we all have our slack days.

Yes, and there is Ben's condition.

Yeah. At least now we know where it comes from, right?

-[Julie] Ben! -Young Nathan here

-is the worst off. -Why?

[Tom] Well, you boys might've inherited

a few medical problems but he's going to end up

-looking like me. -[all laughing]

[Julie] Yeah, okay. Well, that's enough lifestyle chat.

Do you need anything? Books? Magazine?

You wouldn't have a copy of Chicago, would you?

[Nathan] In the past, it had always been me

who was the stuff-up, the big kid.

Now, maybe it was my turn to be the grown-up.

-Hey. -[Coby] Hey.

[Nathan] A bit of a shock?

Well, he's going to be okay, that's the main thing.

I know.

Why'd you leave the room?

Oh, because I'm an ungrateful dickhead.

I just see him trying to get his way in with you guys

and all I want is for him to... go away.

-[Nathan] Why? -'Cause, because I am...

There is more for me out there than him.

You guys have shown me that, only, uh...

How do you tell the bloke

that loves you more than anyone

that you don't want him in your life?

[Nathan] I guess that's the thing about kids.

We all grow up eventually.

Even if it hurts like hell.
