Thank you.

[Dave]But lately I'm not so sure.

Easy.

[laughs merrily]

Ah, darling, taking that job

was the best thing that ever happened to us.

Yeah, I'm lucky I meet that developer at the awards night.

No, see, I don't think it was luck.

I, I think...

[song begins again] ♪ Somewhere ♪

You were meant to bump into him.

It was a sign.

Oh! I should just go and check on Ruby.

Don't worry. She loves creche.

Hmm.

Mr. Rafter, I'm your massage therapist.

Come through when you're ready.

Thanks.

[laughs]

Oh, lower.

-Lower. -Dave.

Darling, it's 5:30,

you've hit the snooze button three times already.

-You've got to go. -Oh, but what about Ruby?

Don't we have to collect her from creche?

Dreaming the same dream night after night.

That's got to be a sign of something. Right?

Oh!

I can't believe I slept through my alarm.

Well, darling, you're over-tired.

You've taken on a really big job.

I thought you said it was the best thing

that ever happened to us.

-When did I say that? -I don't know, sorry,

you will say that when it's finished.

This is our springboard for the big time.

Only six week left to go.

Mmm, six more weeks of 12-hour days.

Maybe when we're finished we can take on more staff.

Yeah, short-term pain for long-term gain.

It'll be worth it. We can go on a holiday.

Oh, yeah, could do with one right now.

Just a weekend away I'd be bliss.

You know we can't.

Mmm... Mwah.

What's that in aid of?

What do you think?

Well, I'm running late.

Yeah, but do you think there's a chance

you can knock off a bit earlier?

No chance, why?

I want to make a special treat for you.

Creamy chicken cassoulet.

Cassoulet? That's a... that's a cholesterol bomb.

Are you trying to kill me?

No, it's a reward for being

such a great husband these many, many years.

Yeah, well, your husband won't be around

many more years if he eats that.

Bye.

Oh, Jules, I nearly forgot.

The, um, fridge door is playing up

so make sure you push it shut

and I'll realign the hinges when I get home.

See you.

[exhales]

And Happy Anniversary to you, too, darling.

[Dave] Come on, come on, we're running late.

-Sorry. -You look terrible.

Yeah, I didn't get enough sleep.

Why not?

You stressed about something?

Yes. About not getting enough sleep.

Well, just remember it's going to be worth it in the end.

You say that every morning. I'm getting a bit annoyed.

What would you like me to say?

Uh... go to bed. Sleep in till midday.

Go back to sales and marketing,

no more 70-hour weeks, something along those lines.

[Dave laughs]

[drilling, hissing]

[Dave] All right, I want this whole joint

fitted out by the end of the day.

-Which day? -Today.

-What, all of it? -I know it's a big ask,

but remember it'll be worth it in the end.

[all] All be worth it in the end.

[Dave] Yes.

Ah, sorry for keeping you awake there, Coby.

Hey? No, apology accepted.

I mean no, oi, sorry.

A big night last night.

A mate came over and we went, uh, out for a few drinks.

Your mate of the female persuasion?

[Coby] Ah not that they take much persuading around me,

but I don't kiss and tell.

All right. Let's do it.

And remember, short term pain...

[both] For long term gain.

Exactly.

-You right? -Yeah.

'Cause seriously, if you're hung-over

you're not climbing any ladders.

Seriously, I'm okay.

All right.

Anyway, who made you ladder police?

You did when you didn't get home

till three o'clock in the morning.

Geez, I'm sorry, I didn't know you were waiting up.

No, I wasn't.

I got woken up by a God-awful version

of Pub With No Beer.

Oh-ha-ha, I'm sorry.

Matt taught it to me, it got stuck in me head.

You didn't tell me you were with Matt last night.

-Oh, well, no, I just thought. -He's your uncle.

You don't need my permission to hang out with him.

Uh, no, but he's your brother.

The only thing that bothers me

is that you can barely keep your eyes open.

I told him I had to have an early night,

before I knew it was 2:00 a.m.

So you both got trashed?

No, I just... No, I didn't get trashed.

[Dave] Well, I hope not.

But just let Jake handle the ladders, all right?

Dave...

Matt is a top bloke, you ought to get to know him.

Yeah, I know. I've met him. He seems like a nice guy.

I've just got a bit too much on my plate at the moment.

Whoa!

Don't do that!

I dreamt I was Uma Thurman.

It was very disturbing.

That's not disturbing.

If I dreamt I was Uma Thurman, that'd be disturbing.

But I was Uma Thurman in the wedding scene

from Kill Bill where everyone gets massacred.

-Great scene. -Carbo.

It was an omen.

We have to call off the wedding.

-Why? -Because it's wrong.

We can't spend all that money.

We're not spending the money.

-My folks are. -[sighs] And that...

that makes it worse.

No calling it off is worse.

There are people coming from all over.

And bringing gifts, it's practically stealing.

No. We're... we're giving them a party.

We're bringing the family together.

For a charade! No.

It's too dangerous.

The nightmare was a sign.

But this is your idea.

I'm just going along with it for your sake.

I know, I wasn't thinking straight.

But now, we call it off.

And what about my mum?

It's always been her dream to see me get married

in a massive Greek way.

Yeah, this is going to break her heart.

-Let's tell her the truth. -What?

And if she still wants to fork out the money

for a ceremony knowing that we're already married,

fine, I'll go along with it.

-Otherwise-- -Okay. Okay.

Great! Great.

She rang your mobile before.

-You already told her? -No.

No, switched it off.

Also took the landline off the hook.

You should be the one that tells her.

-Seriously? -Now would be a good time.

Tomorrow would be better.

Why not today?

Mmm! Mm-hmm.

Oh, hello, precious.

Is Mummy teaching you how to surf the net?

No Mummy's looking up recipes

for Daddy's dinner tonight.

Oh.

Posh chicken casserole?

Anyway, happy anniversary, love.

Aww, thanks, Dad.

How is it that you always remember?

Because your wedding was exactly two months

after Rachel was born.

And the last time you made chicken cassoulet

was last anniversary.

Now see, even you remember that.

-Don't tell me he's forgotten? -Yes.

I thought he was having me on at first.

I mean, he never forgets.

No, never.

Well, he's working too hard.

Anyway, he might still remember.

[phone rings]

Ah-ha!

[chuckles]

Hello.

Oh, Rita, sorry, I thought...

Oh, fancy you remembering.

How are you?

Oh!

Oh, uh, Rita calm...

calm down. Yes.

Oh, hi, darling, is Carbo home?

-[Retta] Um... -[Julie] Oh, good.

Just I've got a message from his mother.

Oh, sorry to interrupt, um, I was just wondering

if you're having problems with your phone.

Well, actually, Rita's wondering.

Our phone?

No problem. No.

Oh, well, it's just that, um,

she's been trying to call you all morning

and I tried and I couldn't get through either.

I'll look into it.

Okay. Um, everything all right?

-Mm-hmm. -Yeah, everything's great.

Right.

Wedding preparations on track?

-Everything's on track. -[nervous chuckle]

-Carbo. -Yes, Mrs. Rafter.

You... your phone's off the hook.

-Thank you. -[laughs]

So are you going to put it back on?

Yeah, I will.

It's just that Rita's trying to call you.

No, it's okay, she's got my mobile.

Uh, well, maybe you should just call her.

Yeah, of course he will.

Okay, all right, well, I'll leave you to it then.

Okay. Well, um, thanks for stopping by.

Was that just my mum?

Might have been.

[door closes]

Look, I'll do it, okay? Just stop hassling me.

-[Ben] Mum. -[Julie] Mm-hmm?

Ah, sorry, just missed you at our place.

-Oh. -Here. Happy Anniversary.

Oh, so you remembered, too. That's lovely.

It's from me, Nathan, and Rachel.

We wanted to get you something special.

But, uh, confidentially, it was my idea.

Oh. I see, okay.

No, no wait till Dad gets home.

Oh. Okay.

-It might jog his memory. -What do you mean?

Well, he left this morning without saying anything.

-No, Dad never forgets. -No, no, I don't blame him.

-He's been working too hard. -Mum, he's having you on.

He didn't forget.

He's probably organizing something for you right now.

Yeah, can I get 200 meters of 1.5 mil blue building wire.

And you still got a special on non-ductable ceiling fans?

Yeah, well, I'll take 20 of those.

Okay, thanks, mate.

How do you blokes feel about us all working back an hour?

Oh, what do you reckon we have lunch first?

-Ah, ah, what about Mum? -Oh, she's all right.

She knows that we've got to prioritize the job.

-What you got plans? -Oh, I think

we're all a little bit buggered

and surely you've got plans.

-Like what? -[Bonnie] Dave.

Hey, Dave.

Well, I would have thought you and Mum...

Ah, Dave, there's a strange lady waving at you.

[Bonnie] Dave. Remember me?

Bonnie. Bonnie Bright.

Oh, great.

-Food. -Oh.

-So what's her story? -[Nathan] Hmm?

Oh, she used to do the lunch rounds for Dad's work.

They're doing.

-Apparently, she's a psychic. -What?

She predicted you'd have the BLT?

No, I'm serious. She has premonitions.

-Mum swears by her. -Right.

Hey, Bonnie!

Hey, what are your tips for the NRL, love?

Oh, no, sorry, I don't know anything about racing.

-Oh. It's all right. -[chuckling]

You might want to take something

for that headache though.

Hey? No it's okay,

I feel like I've been kicked...

[gulps]

There you go.

That is freaky.

Oh!

I'll have the salad...

-wrap. -Good choice.

I see the diet's agreeing with you.

Yeah. You can keep the change.

Thank you.

What?

Is today a special day for you?

No.

Well, that's weird because I just had

a vivid picture of flowers popping in my head.

No, it's just a work day. Nothing special about it.

No, well, not if you don't want it to be.

See you tomorrow.

Right. Yeah.

-Dad, are you sure? -No.

There's nothing special about today.

No. No unless you count, you know,

your mother cooking the chicken cassoulet

for the first time since...

Oh...

Oh, dear.

Look you better hold the fort,

there's something I've got to do.

Yes, there is. There's a...

there's a deli down the road and they sell flowers.

[sighs] I'm an idiot.

Yes. But luckily, you're cute.

When did you remember?

Relatively recently.

What, you completely forgot?

I'm sorry. It'll never happen again.

Darling, that's all right, you've had a lot on your mind.

Yeah, well, now, I've only got one thing on my mind.

-Happy Anniversary. -Mmm! Mmm! Oh, Dave...

Heart friendly chicken cassoulet.

-You're incredible. -Yeah. Mmm!

-I'll make it up to you. -Yeah, darling.

-Ruby's asleep, isn't she? -Um, yes.

Well, come on then, I've only got 15 minutes.

All right, but Dave...

I see the All Ords is down again.

Looks like the All Ords

is not the only thing that's down.

Oh, darling, 15 minutes just isn't enough time.

Yeah, well, it's bad enough I forgot our anniversary.

Don't let it worry you. It happens.

Not to me. It never happens to me.

Look you are making too big a deal out of this.

Sorry.

What about medication?

-What do you mean medication? -Well, you know.

Oh, no. You tried that once. Remember what happened?

Yeah, well, that was an accident.

You took three, you could have given yourself a heart attack.

This time I'll take the correct dose.

You don't need them, darling.

It's happened once.

You just need to relax.

Sorry.

I'm sorry. You know our...

our most special day of the year

-and I'm stuffing it up. -No, you're not.

And the day's not over yet.

I mean you bought me beautiful flowers.

I just need to put some water in those

and they will perk right up.

[Dave] As much as I didn't believe in signs,

those flowers were telling me something.

And not something I wanted to hear.

[machine whirring]

Sorry I took so long,

I just had to pick up some circuit breakers.

Yeah, no probs. We're still on schedule.

Yeah, we've been hard at it.

[laughter]

Good. Keep it up.

[laughter]

Is there some joke I'm not getting?

They know you went to see Mum.

[all snickering]

-Just do your job, all right? -Yeah, we're doing our job.

Yeah, we're just not on the job.

Hey, Dave, is there any chance of us

-getting some time off today? -What for?

We want some circuit breakers, too.

Oh, stop behaving like a couple of school kids

and get back to work.

[Jake] Oh!

Why is he so touchy?

I thought he'd be cool after, you know,

getting a little something, something.

Okay, Coby, that's enough.

It's my parents we're talking about.

And after you blindfold him?

We're going to take him to the Speedway.

I've got this bloke to take him around in a Supercar.

-Oh, Carbo will love that. -I know.

And then we're going to the Boat Club.

You mum's done me a discount on the drinks.

And then what?

-Entertainment. -You mean strippers.

[Ben] No, of course not.

You're such a liar.

No way. I know what Carbo likes.

And what's that?

-Greek folk dancing. -[Emma] Really?

Ooh, maybe I could come along.

I've done some folk dancing in my time.

-Have you now? -Yeah.

Learned the Zorba Dance in kindy.

Well, you know, I'd love to see your Zorba

but this is a bit different.

How?

Well, it depends how much you spend.

There's your basic folk dancer dressed as a nun.

Or there's two folk dancers

dressed in French maid outfits,

but they cost a bit extra.

And what's Carbo getting?

Three folk dancers,

a mud-bath and a giant pavlova.

[laughter]

The whole thing's going to cost a mint,

but hey, he only gets married once, so it will be worth it.

Benno.

How long have you been standing there?

We need to talk.

Uh, excuse us.

How much did you hear?

Forget that.

I need your help.

Retta wants me to tell Mum something that'll kill her.

-Who? -Mum.

God! What?

I'm already married.

You're kidding? Does Retta know?

To Retta, you idiot!

[sputters] But who was your best man?

Well, no one. We eloped.

-Without me? -Eloped, Benno!

Of course without you.

But now Retta wants me to tell Mum

that we're already married

and that she doesn't want another ceremony.

You don't need another ceremony.

Yeah, I know, but Mum's got her heart set on it.

Well, then do one for her.

Yeah, but Retta thinks it's fraud.

Well, yeah, technically it is.

You'd be taking presents under false pretenses.

Will you stop agreeing with everything I'm saying!

What should I do?

Retta's right, you've got to come clean.

Yeah, what about Mum?

She may lose face in front of everyone.

She may never come back to Australia.

And that would be bad because...

Oh, Ben! Sorry.

Hey, I've got it.

Why don't you get a divorce, propose,

and then get married again?

That is the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

Can you do that?

If she doesn't knock you back.

Look, can you just take this seriously.

I do.

Sorry. I am.

I mean, look, you've got to get married again.

I've written a speech and everything.

-[cell phone rings] -Ben, your phone's ringing.

Please don't tell me that's my mum.

No, that's the video store.

Mate, you've got to relax.

Tell her.

Oh, he's already married.

-To who? -To Retta!

-What, it's not funny. -I'm sorry.

I'm just trying to get my head around it.

-You're married, that's great. -Is it?

-We should celebrate. -No way. Uh-uh.

Yes, of course.

Celebrate first, de-stress Retta

and then we'll work out what to tell your mum.

[Dave] Hey, Jules, we've, ah, just finished up.

[Julie] Oh. Good.

'Cause I was hoping we could continue

where we left off.

Yeah, yeah, we could or, or we could, uh, you know,

maybe, maybe try something a little bit different?

Oh, really? What'd you have in mind?

Oh, I don't know, we could go dancing, uh, or bowling.

Yeah, bowling, we haven't done that for a while.

Darling, would you stop worrying

about what happened before? You'll be fine.

Yeah, sure.

So when will I see you?

Um, uh, soon. Look, I...

There's just an errand that I need to run.

I've got to go pick up some wall brackets.

[chuckles] Okay. Well, I'll be waiting.

Yeah. Bye.

[Coby] I'm just saying if Dave goes back

for an action replay, at his age, he is a legend.

I know things are different in Coolong, Coby,

but civilized people don't talk about

-how often their parents do it. -[laughing]

-[knock on door] -Oi, it's open.

But we'll be glad if we can walk at Dave's age,

let alone do it.

One more word, Jake, and I'll punch your face.

-[Matt] Howdy! -Hey.

Bootsy, what are you doing here?

-You here to finish me off? -Oh, no,

I couldn't handle another night on the tiles.

Tea and scones for me.

Well, uh, here's your Earl Grey.

-Oh, thank you. -You remember Nathan?

Yeah, from, uh, running you guys to that sparky do.

Didn't know we were related then.

Me either.

So it's, uh, good to meet you properly.

-You too. -How's your dad?

I hear he's a bit of a slave driver.

-Whoa, Matt! -What, I'm just stirring.

No, I'd... I'd love to see him again.

He's pretty busy.

Oh, yeah, fair enough.

If I had me as a brother, I'd avoid me, too.

Yeah, well, you're a pretty dud uncle as well.

True. Our whole family's a waste of space.

Liars, thieves, and whores, the whole lot of us.

-Hey! -No Long John Jennings

he sold his mother into slavery.

Or Lee Harvey Jennings,

he tried to assassinate the Pope.

Matt's so ashamed he even changed his name.

Yeah, it's Matt Gaddafi now.

-Less baggage. -[chuckles]

Coby, uh, said you're a musician.

Oh, for now.

But he was into abalone fishing

and then he wanted to open a bar in, um, Byron.

In Broome, Cobes.

Get your geography right.

And that was a dumb idea.

But I'm serious about the music.

I would love to hear about it.

I should probably get going though.

You've just opened your beer.

I know, I just promised Dad I'd have an early night.

Well, you don't have to do everything

-your dad tells says, Natho. -No, you should.

But at least finish your drink first.

The Jennings clan may be guilty

of a lot of things, but never let it be said

we come between a bloke and his beer.

Come on, it's not every day you get to hang out

with your long lost relos.

No.

One more and then I probably should get going.

Yeah, good. Cheers.

Cheers.

Hey, Ted.

I just thought I'd let you know

I'm heading off to see a movie.

A very long movie.

Great, well, have a good night.

You too.

Carbo!

Carbo!

Congratulations!

Whoo-hoo!

[all whooping]

So you, you told them?

Yeah, they want to celebrate.

Have you told your mum yet?

Ah, no, not yet, but I will.

You tell your friends but not your mum

and she's the one I asked you to tell

and God knows I don't ask for much,

but you, you just want to drink and party

and I hate being married when I'm living a lie!

Oh, I'm...

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry, I'm just...

[voice breaks] I'm just...

[Carbo] Oh, Retta,

you're not on a sugar binge again, are you?

It's the only way I could cope with the stress.

You have got to tell her, Carbo.

I know.

Okay. Well...

Now that you've told them it might be easier.

-Yeah. -Okay.

[Dave] So there's ocean views on one side

and a big volcano on the other side.

And the waiter serves us cocktails and then--

And where's Ruby?

Well, she's in creche.

And we have our complimentary massages.

Then we go back to our hotel room

and make out like teenagers.

Wow, you've put a lot of thought into this.

Yeah, sort of.

-It's been a recurring dream. -Really?

Yeah, three or four times this week.

It's great,

until the clock radio kicks in.

Oh.

I just want to go somewhere where everything stops.

Oh, well, that sounds like heaven.

This is all worth it?

What?

The long hours.

Pushing the guys so hard.

Forgetting our anniversary.

Yes, of course it is.

It's for our future.

Yeah.

-Well, that was great. -Hm.

I can't believe it was actually good for me.

What's for dessert?

Oh...

[Carbo] Look, a letter will take too long.

-[Emma] What about an email? -[Carbo] Too quick.

[Ben] Just call her and get it over with.

But how do I break it to her without upsetting her?

Tell her you had to get married

'cause you got Retta pregnant.

Oh, yeah, that wouldn't upset her at all.

No!

No, the lying has got to stop!

It has got to stop!

I was kidding.

Here, have some more camomile tea, babe.

-I need sugar. -No.

-Just tell her the truth. -What the truth!

What? But...

Maybe she'll be impressed by the romance of it all.

She hates romance.

She believes in arranged marriages.

Maybe she'll be impressed that you took initiative.

Or maybe she'll kill me.

I don't know what to tell you, mate.

Well, don't give up.

Maybe you should speak to a professional.

A professional?

You know, like, some sort of counselor.

Oh, yeah, like who?

-We could try Simon. -Who's Simon?

He helped my friend Tina,

you know, the one with the halitosis.

She saw her dad at the movies with Mrs. Sirakowski

and did not know what to tell her mum.

Simon sorted it all out for her.

She swears by him.

Have you got his number?

[Retta] No.

But I can get it.

He's expensive though.

He charges $5 per minute.

-Per minute? -Mmm.

What sort of professional is he?

-He's a psychic. -Oh, Retta.

So what happened when Tina told her mum about her dad?

Um...Oh, Simon told her to say nothing.

Let's call him.

Okay.

[Nathan] So I gave up real estate

for a job in the music industry.

I worked as a marketing consultant for a bloke

-called Steve Wilson and... -Steve Wilson?

-You mean "Suburban Boy?" -Yes! That Steve.

[knock on door]

-[Bree] Hello. -Ah through here.

Oh, what's she doing here?

I invited her. That's okay, yeah?

Of course it is.

-Hey! -Hey.

I thought you didn't drink.

Oh, well, you drove me to it and I assumed that Boots

would have drunk you dry by now.

"Suburban Boy," I covered that in one of my gigs.

Really?

Isn't that kind of a daggy song?

No, it's not.

Yeah, remember you used to think it was daggy, too.

No, I... Um, Bree, Nathan's dad wrote the lyrics.

Oh, so, it's his fault then.

-[Nathan] Um... -Did he really?

Yeah, he and Steve played in a band for ages.

They're old mates.

So Dave's a serious muso?

Yeah, well, he was.

He quit so he could raise a family.

Well, you've got to respect that.

-Yeah. -And you quit

the music industry, too?

Not exactly. I...

had a bit of a falling out with Steve.

What happened?

It's not that interesting.

Well, I'm interested.

-So am I. -Me too.

Who cares, he left and he's doing well.

Yes. I am doing well.

I'm working for Dad.

Oh, don't knock it, I'm driving a cab.

Yeah, but you do it so you can pursue your music.

Well, whatever you do, you've got to enjoy it.

Oh, geez, if I was working for my dad

I'd probably be in prison.

-[laughter] -Yeah.

[Cody] That's a classic.

[Dave moaning]

Lower.

Oh, just a little bit lower.

Oh, yeah! Ohh.

Oh no, hang on, hang on.

-Oh, oh! -Hang on.

I thought you were enjoying it.

Yeah I was, I just got scared I was going to wake up.

It's not a dream, darling.

So I don't have to get up and go to work?

Not for another eight hours.

So this is real?

Yeah.

Oh, hello.

It seems normal transmission's resumed.

[Julie laughs]

[Psychic Simon] You've had this problem for some time,

it's weighed in heavily on you.

Yes, like a, like a big rock.

[Psychic Simon on phone] Many people have given you advice...

Yes.

Someone close to you with dark hair.

Yeah, yes. Yeah.

[Simon] He has your best interests at heart

but he's not always right.

Hmm. No, no he's not.

Anyway, let's cut to the chase, mate.

Do we tell Mum before the wedding or not?

The wedding will be a success.

But not in the way you expect.

What's that supposed to mean?

You know for $5 a minute I think we're entitled

-to a little more detail. -Ben, shh!

Who else is in the room?

You're the psychic, you tell us.

[snickering]

There are four people here.

Me, my... husband.

Well, he is and, and two friends, Ben and Emma.

One of you is connected to someone

whose name starts with... "D."

My mum's name is Donna.

She's unwell.

What do you mean?

She lives in fear that her sickness will return.

Tell her the worst is behind her

and to steer herself gently to the light.

Well, okay.

"D."

You know Tina's cousin Danny

just had a third melanoma removed.

Yeah, and my Aunty Despina, she's a recovering alcoholic.

I also sense another presence in the room.

I sense a load of old--

Ben!

Please.

Do you know a...

a Mel?

Mate, I think we'll have to call it a night.

Hey!

Could you repeat that, please?

Do you know Mel?

Melissa?

What about Melissa?

Melissa says you should follow your heart.

It's time to move on.

♪ Than to stand in the bar Of that pub with no beer ♪

Whoo!

That was great for a first effort.

-From the top again? -Yeah.

No Matt, Matt, Matt, Matt! Please.

No, we have to call it a night.

Oh, fine. You blokes get your beauty sleep,

the rest of us will kick on.

Sorry, your ride's leaving now.

Yes, I should probably call it a night, too.

Pikers.

Okay, Coby, Coby, Coby!

[drunkenly] ♪ Hey, there's Nothing more lonesome... ♪

They're going mate, they're going.

Oh, night, night, Uncle Matt.

Night, night, cobber Coby.

Come on, mate, come on. Come on.

-Oh! -Bye, Cobes.

Hey, I've got a few gigs coming up,

I'd love you to come along.

Maybe you could bring your old man.

Maybe.

Maybe. Do you make much money from playing?

No, no, no, it costs me,

'cause I've got to give up some of my cab shifts.

So if you know of any casual jobs going or...

Sure, sure. Yeah, uh,

speaking of cabs, I should probably call one.

Uh, I could give you a lift.

I'm designated driver,

why else do you think he invited me?

Ooh! Clever.

Hey, just between you and me,

what happened with Steve Wilson?

Uh, I had a fling with his girlfriend.

He found out and I lost my job

and then my marriage went downhill

-after that, too, so. -Geez,

and you look so innocent.

-You really are a Jennings. -Yeah, I guess so.

Well, I guess I can't get you to ask Steve to my gig?

No way.

No but, but I can work on Dad.

-Oh, good. -[car honks]

We better go.

Anyone would think you're scared of her.

I'm terrified of her. Come on.

♪ So lonesome morbid Or drear than to stand ♪

[yelps]

What is it with people sitting in the dark around here?

Where have you been?

Uh, at Jakes.

Oh, our Uncle Matt dropped in.

Boy, he can talk the leg off a chair.

Right.

I guess I should meet him sometime.

Hmm.

What's wrong?

A couple of hours ago

this psychic was doing a reading for us.

And out of the blue he said he had a message from Mel.

Wow.

Um, okay.

What was the message?

That I need to follow my heart and move on.

Follow your heart.

To where exactly?

You were right.

I think I'm falling for Emma.

Is that such a bad thing?

It's too soon.

But if Mel said...

No, no, no, Mel, didn't say anything.

It was just some faker who was making it up.

Ben, I'm sure that bloke was a fake,

but, you know, that's exactly

the sort of thing Mel would say.

She wouldn't want you to be lonely.

And you don't have to be a psychic to know that.

I feel guilty or... something.

Well, maybe you should feel lucky, you know,

that you've met someone so great.

Yeah, but it's too soon, isn't it?

Ben, there's no right or wrong time.

That's the point.

[belches] Ooh, excuse me.

[alarm rings]

[Julie] Dave.

Hmm, oh.

-Dave. -Right

it's all you can eat in the Bula Bula buffet.

Oh!

Pineapple.

Dave.

Oh!

Oh, my God!

[telephone rings]

-Jules fridge. -Yeah. Hey, hey,

no, let the machine get that.

-Hello. -Hey, if that's Rita...

Oh, hi, Rita.

[whispers] No tell her I'll call her back.

-Yep, she's here. -No.

-Oh, you didn't want me to? -Oh!

-Hello, Rita, hi. -Sorry.

No, no that... Okay, yes, well, just calm...

Rita, calm down! I...

I did talk to...

Yes, I will when I'm...

Yeah, all right, now. Now.

Talk to him now! Thanks.

-Sorry. -[doorbell rings]

Mrs. Rafter.

-[ringing] -It's your mother.

Uh...

[door slams]

[clears throat] Hi, Rita.

Yes, our phone's been playing up.

Yes, all of them.

Give it to me. Give it...

-No. No. -Yes.

Ahem.

Uh, hi, yeah, he is here, but there's something

I need to tell you first.

Oh, no!

Oh, oh, how awful.

What, what's awful?

No, no I... It's fine, I completely understand.

Um... What was it that I had to tell you.

Yeah, it was about the wedding but it can wait.

What?

Now, Rita, you just need to sit down

and make yourself a nice cup of tea

and have some chocolate or something.

But, in moderation.

Um, and give Theo a big hug.

Nick'll call you later.

Okay, bye.

What happened? Why didn't you tell her?

They invested in a big shipping company

and it went belly-up.

They lost a fortune.

Oh, geez.

I better call them.

Um, look, she was upset

because they'll have to scale down the wedding.

I couldn't kick her while she was down.

You did the right thing, babe.

Hey, it's not all bad.

Hey, you were freaking out over the massive wedding,

now it'll be really small.

And just as fake.

Yeah, but don't you see?

It's a sign, we dodged a bullet.

We're still going to have to tell her sometime.

No, it'll make it easier.

Now things will be so scaled down

it might not even happen.

Oh, my brain hurts.

I'll make some tea.

-Any sign of Nathan next door? -No.

He better be waiting at the van.

-Morning, all. -Morning.

Ah, Nathan, glad you could make it.

Ben, bit early for you, isn't it?

I just called by to say hello.

What, at six o'clock in the morning?

Yeah.

All right, well... hello.

Something else?

Oh, he wants to know what you thought of our gift.

-What gift? -Oh, sorry,

I completely forgot.

Here we go.

Oh.

Oh!

[gasps]

Oh, that's wonderful! Thank you.

What?

Two nights at Club Cockatoo?

-Oh. -It's a resort in Kiama.

Meals included, all the trimmings.

-Oh! -That's great,

you really didn't have to.

Well, it's from all of us.

-But, uh... -It was Ben's idea.

Crawler.

Really, that's terrific. Thanks.

You can use it anytime in the next 12 months, so.

Oh! What about today?

Yeah, we'll take a break when the job's finished.

Do you have to wait until then?

Actually, Dad, we could juggle the schedule around

and Ben and I could cover for you.

I don't want to juggle the schedule.

-Oh, for a couple of days. -Jules, look--

No, Dave, you're tired, you're stressed.

You're sleeping through alarms.

If you had any sense you'd take a break.

[Dave] And suddenly I realized she was right.

This wasn't just a gift... it was a sign.

Well, the main thing is to get the outdoor wiring done

so we need to dig those trenches.

No problem.

Yeah, and we'll do the ground leads

and the circuit breakers when I get back.

Everyone, okay with all that?

Yeah, I'm okay.

Yeah, me too.

Yeah, good.

What'd you guys get up to last night?

Um... Oh... We, um...

We had a drink with Matt.

Oh, right, so he got you all trashed.

I might need to remind you that we have six weeks left

-on this project so... -Hello! Yoo-hoo!

...so a few early nights might be in order.

So, how was your not-so-special day?

All right, you win, it was my anniversary.

So what you having?

A few days off, actually.

Good for you.

Yeah, Jake will fix the orders.

Ask me, Dave. What's on your mind?

This, um, this job, it's tough and I just want to know...

Will it be worth it in the end?

Yeah.

Oh, this job, Dave,

it's like an old tennis racquet.

You've got to serve it straight...

otherwise the strings will break.

Right.

What exactly does that mean?

Oh.

All right, fellows, what are you having?

-Hey. -Okay.

Hey Dave, Dave, Dave, Dave.

Would you mind if I just duck off.

I've got to grab some pain killers.

No, that's okay, No, I've got some here.

I could use some of those, too.

-Ta. -Have fun.

Have a great time, Dad.

-Yeah, I will. -Whoo!

I wish you never taught me to read.

Shut up.

Need a hand?

Oh I, I was going to call you.

Sorry about last night.

That's okay, I was just worried about you.

I'm fine.

We were all spooked.

I mean, what are the odds of mentioning Mel by name.

Yeah.

But really, I mean, "follow your heart and move on"?

That could mean anything.

Like getting your hair dyed or buying a new dress,

or shirt in your case.

I know.

I feel a bit stupid now.

You're not.

So a hand with this?

Sure.

Emma...

Could you pass me the trowel?

Thanks.

Oh.

We are going to need some help.

No.

Look, I'm just saying some extra hands.

We don't need help.

Even if I wanted to call Matt I'd have to run it past, Dad,

and he's not here.

Right, so we have to break

our backs while your dad,

you know, has a dirty weekend.

He's with my mum, it's not a dirty weekend.

Ah, well, that depends on what they're doing.

My dad, going away with my mum is not a dirty weekend.

My dad going away with your mum,

that is a dirty weekend.

-Oh, you're sick, Nathan. -Just dig.

What is your problem with Matt?

Nothing. Can you please just dig.

Oh mate, it's rock.

We're going to need pick axes.

Yeah, Matt can use a pick axe.

And we could use a jackhammer.

Yeah, Matt can use a jackhammer.

Nathan, we're going to need a hand.

At this rate we're never going to get it down.

Just bend your backs, okay? And it'll get...

Who's got Matt's number?

I do.

-Hey! -Hey!

Sorry mate, I know you said to wait for you call

but it's been bloody painful watching you jokers

for the last half an hour.

What? While your dad's away on his shagathon

I thought we could use some help.

Shagathon?

Whoa, he really is a Jennings.

[laughter]

Hey, guys.

I've got a couple of cocktails here for you.

-Thanks. -Oh, thank you.

You're welcome.

[woman] Mr. Rafter, I'm your massage therapist.

Would you like to come through now?

Yeah. That'd be...

great. Yep.

What's wrong?

Nothing at all.

[Dave] Don't get me wrong, I'm still a skeptic.

But sometimes with signs, there's only one way

you can read them.

Dave.

[snoring]

Ohh.
