(inspiring music)

Previously on McLeod's Daughters.

Are you firing me?

I wouldn't fire a good worker like you,
Terry.

But as far as I'm concerned you just handed

in your resignation, effective immediately.

My daughter, Rose, she's 12 now, Rosie.

You must have been very young.

15.

She did her first jump.

Yeah, I knew she was gonna be a good rider.

She lives with my sister, Michelle.

Everyone thought that was for the best.

Just tell her that Auntie Stevie loves her.

Rosie now thinks that Michelle is her mum.

So, you wouldn't like to see more of me,

every day for example?

Why can't we just leave it like it is?

I'd like more than that.
All I'm asking is to be let in.

You can't blame me for
wanting what you've got.

What's that?

Family.

(footsteps)

Pine posts, star droppers,

tires for the scarifier, dog feed.

Don't forget my hand cream.

If you keep dropping Larry the Lion,

you're gonna lose him.

(car door bangs)

I knew working here was a good idea.

Who's this?

Ah, if I knew we'd be married by now.

Ah, he's probably lost,
we'll have to put him up.

Not so fast.

Hi there Tess McLeod, can I help you?

Stevie Hall, manager.

Jodi Fountain,
chief assistant leading head.

Brad Whittaker,
new stock and station agent,

Mr McLeod around?

No, there isn't one, just us.

All you gorgeous girls and
no man to keep you in check?

Ah, good ones are hard to find.

Or maybe that just changed.

Yeah, Ted said someone new was taking over,

it probably explains the
delay of my organic fertilizer.

I always wondered who was
dopey enough to go organic.

Makes sense.

Does it?

And why's that?

I dunno, think it's a chick thing.

Anyway, I just wanted to
let people know I was offering

a new service but I don't
think you'd be interested.

It's not for hobby farms.

Oi, these hands look like
they work on a hobby farm?

We're 50 000 hectares and run enough sheep

and cattle to feed a small country.

Brad's new he's not to know. So,
what's the service?

Negotiating contracts for agisting stock,

got some beef that
needs agisting right now,

but I'll be talking to other properties.

Oh,
we've got paddocks free top quality feed.

How about 270 a head?

Try 250.

Done.

It's worth more.

Don't forget the phosphate.

Organics,
no wonder there isn't a bloke on the place.

There were, we killed 'em.

(ducks quacking)

It's a fair deal.

You're a soft touch, good looking guy,

and you'd agree to anything.

Rubbish.

He wasn't being funny, you know?

He meant all that stuff
about us being hobby farmers.

Oh, o Charlie got out.

(car brakes on gravel)

(honks horn)

Ah, don't do that.

(Charlie bellows)

Turn the engine off quick.

Why?

(Charlie moos)

Just turn it off.

(keys jingle) (sighs)

[Tess] He hates engines.
(Charlie snorts)

Always has don't worry
he'll get out of the road soon.

We're waiting for a bull.

Like I said, soft.
(Charlie moos)

I can't afford to tell Brad off.

He's a new agent,
we have to get along with him.

You wouldn't be saying
that if he was old and ugly.

(Charlie moos)

It wouldn't matter if he had two heads

and was covered in warts,
being rude is bad for business.

I want him to think of Drover's first

when it comes to deals.

(charlie snorts and moos)

Ah, there you go.

(car door creaks)

(footsteps)

(car door bangs)

(footsteps)

What's your official title again?

(brushing)

Vice President of international sales.

That's next week when
you get the promotion right?

No, next week is when he
takes over the whole company.

So how do I look,
like a regional sales consultant

for Pearson's Tractors?

Very impressive.

I knew there'd be a job out there for you.

Ya, of course,
it took a while to find the right one.

Have you got, ah your lunch.

And shouldn't you have
a folder with brochures

and everything in it and...

Do you have a business card?

Oh no, I'll pick all that up at the office.

Can I call you,
or maybe I could drop by later?

Spend most of the day on the road.

Mum, you don't want them thinking

he spends all his time talking to you.

Oh, that's a good point.

All right then well, good luck.

(kisses)

I better get going, don't wanna be late

on the first day,
first impressions and all that.

(car door bangs)

(engine roars)

Something special isn't it?

It's Killarney Harry.

We have seen it a hundred times before.

I can't see anything that's changed.

Well, it has, it's gonna be yours.

I decided to change my will make you

and Alex equal partners.

You've done this before, dad.

It was gonna go to Alex,
then it was gonna go to me.

Yeah well,
I won't be changing my mind again.

This is the way it should be.

You're Ryans, you're my sons, both of you.

Killarney belongs to you.

And the catch is?

No catch.

Well, the way it usually works,

we don't find that out
until after you've gone.

Look, I just want you to know my plans,

so you can start planning, too.

Think about what you
wanna do with the place.

We can't do that while we're at Wilgul.

Why stay there,
at least here you've got a future?

No catch huh?

Except you want us to move back here.

You can't even make ends meet there.

It's like a bottomless pit.

Why don't you just sell up, come home.

I didn't build this place up
from nothing to see it wasted.

Well then you know
how we feel about Wilgul.

Thanks, but no thanks.

(dramatic music)

(footsteps)

You can't force them back.

Sandra, they belong here.

I was hoping it might be where I belong,
too.

You don't give up easily, do you?

(laughs)

Not where you're concerned, no.

(sniffs)

Besides I know what they think of me.

They're not gonna want me around.

Listen, you don't worry about nothing.

(kissing)

(car door creaks)

(car door bangs)

(car driving on the sand)

It was the last one left, I had to elbow

the woman next to me just to get it.

What?

No, it doesn't seem like
your sort of present that's all.

Guess I imagined riding
boots or a whip or something.

Well, Rose collects them.

Last time I took her shopping
that's all she went on about.

She saw one in the window
and dropped hints all day long.

Yeah, I always wanted a Barbie.

My mother only ever gave me books.

(giggles)

Well, I can't wait to see
her face when she opens it.

13, can you believe it?

(car drives on the sand)

Look, no offense but I'd prefer

to deal with Mr Ryan directly.

I find it saves mix ups.

Killarney puts a lot of business your way,
doesn't it?

Sure does.

Then you'll deal with me
if you want it to continue.

Now, you mentioned an agistment deal

you've just done at Drover's.

Yeah, got a really good price.

Yeah, I reckon I could beat it.

Don't think you could undercut that one.

(giggling)

Try me.

(sighs)

Wouldn't be ethical.

You want integrity or longevity?

250 a head.

That wasn't a written
agreement by any chance was it?

Not yet.

Good.

(engine running)

(horn honking)

Great.

(brakes squeak)

(engine running)

Glad I caught ya,

it's a no-go on the agistment I'm afraid.

Ah, but we had a deal.

Oh well,
it wasn't on paper and I've gotta get

the best possible price for my client.

You tell your client the deal's with us

or you'll be signing soprano
with the church choir.

What she meant to say was if you got

a better offer you should've told us.

I didn't mean that.

We're just disappointed that
you didn't come back to us.

No hard feelings.

Are you busy Friday night,

you feel like showing the new guy around?

She's busy, it's a full moon

and we're sacrificing a few lambs.

(laughs)

Figures.

(comical music)

Well, that really helped.

You should've torn strips off of him

for doing the dirty on us.

Stock and station agents
are like used car salesmen.

You scream at them and they'll go out

of their way to do you over.

Act like a professional,
sooner or later they'll come round.

Or not.

Besides,
the alternative is a very long drive

to the other side of
Manjimup to get supplies.

Yeah, well it would be
worth it not to deal with him.

(engine roars)

(lively music)

(phone scratches on the table)

(fingers tapping)

Mum, he said it wouldn't
look good if you called.

(beeping)

I won't tell them who it is.

(fridge bangs)

Hi, I'm looking to buy a new tractor

and I heard you've got Terry
Dodge working there now.

I've dealt with him in the past.

He's such a professional and I'd like to.

Terry Dodge.

Are you sure?

Well, thank you.

(beeps)

Pearson say they haven't got anyone

by that name working there.
Well, it's his first day,

he probably hasn't met everyone yet.

Yeah, of course.

Hello, how's my gorgeous girl, huh?

There's no need to check the troughs

and the fences on Bold Hill.

How come?

Well, we've been undercut by
someone else on the agisting.

And apparently we're not
supposed to do anything about it.

Well that explains the cattle truck.

What cattle truck?

On the stock route.
Thought it was coming to us

but it headed straight for Wilgul.

(dramatic music)

We didn't know he'd done a deal with you.

If we had we would've turned him down.

Undercutting 250 a head,
how can it be worth your while?

He offered us three.

Well, that doesn't make sense.

No.

He'd do anything to
avoid dealing with women.

No, he's not that stupid.

You just can't see it can you?

Who'd pay us more than
they're gonna pay Tess?

Some generous person
who knows we need money.

Harry, get away, he wants us home.

Mm.

He's not going to prop us here.

Yeah, well someone wants to.

All right, all right,
so I topped up the offer

to make sure he'd go with you,
what's wrong with that?

We're not a charity,
we don't want your help.

Isn't that what families do for each other?

All right, look, look if Brad had a deal

with the Drover's first,
then the only decent thing

to do is to turn it down.

It's too late, we signed an agreement.

I was trying to do the right thing.

Cut the crap, Sandra.

Ai, ai, Alex!

Listen,
you might want to play happy families,

but it's never gonna work, all right?

(footsteps)

You know I want them to come home

what do you think you're doing?

They turned you down,
I didn't want them doing

any tougher than they already are.

Trouble in paradise.

We can only hope.

They don't want to come back Harry.

No,
they won't as long as you keep interfering.

Harry!

So, just look leave me alone, will you?

(clicks)

(footsteps)

(sad music)

(heart beating)

(glasses clink)

(tools clang)

Harry come on,
you've been out here long enough.

Oh!

You're not still angry with me are you?

(feet scuff)

I know you're in here.

(door squeaks)

Harry!

(glass smashes)

Harry!

(dramatic music)

(broom sweeping)

(birds chirping)

Oi!

Hey!

(sweeping)

Ta-da.

Ah what's this, bribery?

No, it's a peace offering.

Hoping I'll forget all about it, huh?

We didn't plan on being
Sandra's charity case.

So, shall we open it?

Oh, you're staying, are you?

I can't drink on an empty stomach.

Well, I guess I could rustle something up.

I'm happy to cook.

Wine and dinner!

For a start, yeah.

Huh, you are feeling guilty, aren't you?

So, take advantage.

Oh, I intend to.

Here, why don't you make yourself useful?

Okay.

How do you like it?

(wine pours)

Well, how thick do you like your pie crust?

How thick do you like your pie crust?

(bangs)

How it comes.

(banging)

Nick, you don't have to bash it.

It's very gentle,

it's just,

back

and fourth.

Like this?

(romantic music)

Yeah, you see it's all in the wrists.

That's good.

(phone rings)

(phone beeps)

I'm sorry all of our operators
are busy right now if you,

oh yes, just a minute, it's Sandra.

Sandra?

(suspense music)

Hello?

(ambulance siren)

[Lady On Intercom] Dr Collis to room four.

Dr Collis to room four.

(footsteps)

How is he?

I don't know, doctors are treating him.

What happened?

I found him in his shed.

Looks like he's had a heart attack.

I got him here as soon as I could

and I've just been standing here waiting

for someone to tell me something.

(crying)

You know if you hadn't upset him,
refusing to come home.

What about you doing
your best to keep us away?

He didn't seem too happy about that either.

I was trying to help.

Well stay away from Killarney.

You're the one screwing him
into an early grave, Sandra.

Right, that's why I'm standing here

feeling sick to my stomach instead

of staying home cracking
open the champagne, Alex.

I'm gonna go find a nurse,

someone must know what's going on.

(footsteps)

So, I'll be there day after tomorrow,
yeah me too!

Oh, I gotta go Michelle,
keep it a surprise.

Give my love to Rosie, bye.

(phone beeps)

Rosie's having a party,
boys and everything.

Hm.

Sorry, I didn't mean to tie up the phone.

No, only Cody called,
still waiting for news.

I feel awful.

Why?

Well,
if I hadn't of got stuck into Nick about

the agisting he wouldn't
have had a go at Sandra.

Then Harry wouldn't have got worked up

and had a heart attack.

So, it's your fault?

What about Brad?

He's the one who started
it by reneging on our deal.

Yeah, I guess so.

Come to think of it.

I think we should blame
Brad for everything.

Droughts, floods, fire.

Sick animals, bad crops, the lot.

This is delicious.

Well, we had to celebrate your first day.

So, how was it?

Ah, you know,
just getting to know the ropes.

(knife and fork clinking)
I tried to call you today.

Oh really?

Nobody told me.

(phone ringing)

Oh, that'll be for me, probably work.

(footsteps)

Mum,
Hello

if you think he's lying just ask him.

He has his pride.

Who is this?

I had no choice all right.

So you're just gonna
let the lie go on and on,

won't that make it worse?

If he's got something to say to me,

he'll tell me when he's ready.

Don't you ever call here again, you got it?

(phone bangs)

(footsteps)

(sighs) Just a couple
of things the boss forgot

to tell me about tomorrow.

(phone ringing)

I'll get it.

No, no, it'll be for me, I'll...

Hello?

(phone beeps)

That's funny, they just hung up.

Wrong number.

(phone bangs)

(footsteps)

Wrong number.

Ah.

(knife and fork clink)

(phone ringing)

That'll be for me again,

must've forgotten something else.

Who'd you talk to maybe
we should try someone else?

Chart said we'll be told what going on

as soon as possible.

Well, what is taking so long huh?

(footsteps)

Excuse me.

Mrs Ryan,

your husband's not outta the woods yet.

But I can say his condition has stabilized

which is a good sign.

Thank you.

Excuse me, I'm Alex, this is Nick.

We're his sons.

Oh, Dr Collis.

Hey.

I assume you've been told

your father's had a heart attack.

Is he okay?

Well, the next 48 hours should tell us.

He's on medication to
stabilize any rhythm problems

and to thin the blood.

And there doesn't seem to be much damage

to the heart muscle.

That was quick thinking
giving him aspirins straight up.

When can we see him?

Now, if you like?

This way.

You couldn't wait to call
yourself Mrs Ryan, huh?

They wouldn't let me into
emergency with him otherwise.

Yeah, righto.

(sad music)

(machines beeping)

Harry?

What have you been doing to yourself Harry?

Lifting tractors or something?

After a bit of attention are you, dad?

What time is it?

Ah, it's 10 o'clock.

In the morning?

Night.

(sighs)

It's a long way to come for nothing.

We gotta be up in a few hours anyway.

Thought we'd fill in some time hey.

(laughing) (coughing)

Don't talk, just rest.

Oh!

(breathes out)

You may as well all go home.

I'll be outta here soon,
the doctor says I'm fine.

Yeah, of course you are,
I'm not going anywhere.

Neither are we, dad.

Well, you can't stand around
all night watching me sleep.

Come on, give me some peace.

Oh well, we'll stay for now,

Sandra you rest you've been here for hours.

I'm fine.

Dad might prefer us being with him.

Ah it's all right,
all of you look, I'm fine.

Sandra can stay where she is,
I'll see you two tomorrow.

Okay?

Rest up.

(footsteps)

(light music)

(water running)

[Lady On Intercom] Dr Collis to room four.

Dr Collis to room four.

(groans)

(bangs)

You reckon we did have
something to do with it?

We've had bigger blows than that

and nothing's ever happened.

I thought he was indestructible.

Yeah, me too.

Probably thought he could scare us.

Ha, well if he goes home
to Sandra playing nurse.

She could talk him into anything.

We're gonna have to move back home Nick,
look after him.

What about Wilgul?

Well, we can lease it out for now.

Till he gets better.

Take the pressure off I guess.

Yeah.

Back extension won't last forever.

Don't suppose you can fake a heart attack?

Don't even think dad's capable of that.

You ready?

Yeah.

You want me to cut your toast?

No, I told you I'm fine.

Good morning.

Hey, I thought you had a farm to run?

Someone's obviously feeling better then?

That's what we wanted to talk to you about.

Sandra, do you mind...

Alex, whatever you've got to say

you can say in front of Sandra.

Alex and I have been talking.

We reckon it's probably
best if we move home.

Help you out, till you back on your feet.

As a temporary thing you mean?

Till you feeling better yeah.

Listen,
I'm not an invalid treated like one.

I'm dammed if I'm having you back

'cause you feel sorry for me.
Well, hang on.

This is what you wanted, dad.

No, not like this.

No, the deal's off,
you come back because you want to.

Or I don't want you back there at all.

(cutlery clinking)

(suspense music)

(ambulance driving)

(brakes squeak)

The stupid old fart.

He's scared, he's found out he's mortal

like the rest of us.

So act like nothing's happened

and end up killing himself
to prove how tough he is.

Or Sandra will get to him first.

Maybe.

(door bangs)

She wants Killarney, that's obvious.

Well, maybe she really does love him, Nick.

Since when did you join her fan club?

I haven't mate, but she seems pretty cut up

about what happened,
you know maybe there's more to it.

So you're happy leading with her?

Right now, we haven't got any choice, Nick.

(car door bangs)

(footsteps)

Hey!

I just got a call from Brad saying

he'd dropped off the phosphate.

Ah, that's why it pays to be nice.

He just wanted to keep his balls, you mean.

It's because I was professional,

not 'cause you're in his face.

Hey, I've worked in enough bars

to know the only way to deal with blokes

like that is to put them in their place.

Hey Jod, do you wanna
leave that the phosphate's up at

the front gate, reckon you can handle it?

Yeah, sure.

Okay, I'll get the tractor
and meet you in the paddock.

Okey doke.

(footsteps)

Terry, your lunch!

Ah lunch, ah ta,
and remember I'll call you.

(car door creaks)

Have a good day.

Yeah, righto.

(car door slams)

(engine roars)

Where do you think he's going every day?

He'll tell me eventually.

(light music)

(footsteps)

(dramatic music)

(sighs)

(engine running)

(car door bangs)

(engine roars)

(footsteps)

Well,
if the water's not getting through you need

to look at the dam, I mean

the pump probably needs
cleaning or something.

Do I have to tell you everything?

You're supposed to be resting.

Well someone's gotta keep an eye on things.

I can look after Killarney.

What's the point?

My own sons don't want a part of it,

I dunno why I'm even bothering.

It's for you too.

(sighs)

They're my sons you know.

Then why don't you let them come home?

'Cause they gotta want
Killarney the way I wanted it.

They put blood,
sweat and tears into Wilgul.

I want them to feel that
way about their home.

'Cause if they don't,

well it's just another
piece of land isn't it?

Doesn't mean anything.

Everything I've done will be wasted.

(sighs) If that's the way it's gonna be,

I may as well call it
quits and sell up now.

(engine running

(tractor running)

I was starting to get worried,
what took you so long?

I was just a, where's Stevie?

Oh, she had a lot to get through

before she visits her sister,
I offered to help.

Mum, I followed Terry.

You what?

He's not selling tractors.

So, I'm gonna wear my
red boots and my gold top.

You better watch out,

you don't wanna upstage the birthday girl.

Oh, no chance you've seen a photo,
I wouldn't have a hope.

(laughing)

(tractor running)

Mum!

Mum!

I've gotta get another bag!

Hey!

Hey!

How's it going?

Yeah, not too bad.

(cattle mooing)

Much more to go?

Just these.

Oh, good.

Oh no, no, no, no I don't believe it!

What?

Well, this is not rock phosphate,
it's super phosphate.

Oh, that's bad isn't it?

Well, it's non-organic,
why didn't you check?

Well,
we just assumed it would be all right.

I'm sorry, I just wanted to get it done.

Yeah, but of all the stupid things...

Hey,
they're not the ones you should be blaming.

No, you're right,
if you hadn't have yelled at Brad,

he might've been more
thorough in checking what he sent.

And maybe he did it on purpose.

The soil has to be
chemically free for a year

this paddock is useless now.

(sad music)

(sheep bleating)

Ch, ch, ch!

Ch, ch, ch!

Go on get up!

Ch, ch, ch!

(sheep bleating)

(horse trotting) Go on,
ch, ch, get in, get up!

Come on you useless things!

(sheep bleating)

Ch, ch, ch!

(car driving)

He-yah!
Alex?

Now what?

Well, if anything had happened to Harry

the hospital would've called by now.

Yeah.

(car driving)

(engine running)

(handbrake creaks)

(keys jingle)

(car door creaks)

How is he?

(car door slams)

Doctor says he's fine.

I'm not so sure.

Well, I think they'd know better.

He's talking about selling Killarney.

He's what?

He built the place up for you.

You don't love it the way he does.

He doesn't see the
point in hanging onto it.

I can see why that would worry ya.

Forget me,
can't you see what's going on here?

Harry and Killarney,
they're the same thing.

You can't have one without the other.

He sells up I guarantee,
he'll be dead within the year

and I'm not gonna let that happen.

Well, you're right, he'd never get over it.

We offered to go back, he wouldn't take us.

Yeah, 'cause it wasn't permanent.

Let's be honest,

none of us wanna be around each other,
do we?

(sad music)

So here's the deal.

If getting you guys home means I back off.

Then that's what I'll do.

Why would you do that?

Because despite what you think of me,

I really do love your father.

(car door creaks)

(car door slams)

(engine running)

All those wrong phone numbers last night,

I should've guessed.

What's Terry doing parking there?

Terry?

Oh Meg, you'll be giving me a heart attack.

What happened to you?

I, I hit a roo,
you should've seen the mess.

You hit it with the back of the car?

Yeah, I was backing over this bloke's place

and no, it's all right,
I just about got it cleaned up.

You don't want to get your clothes dirty.

No, no, I'll lend ya a hand.

It's all right!

Ah, Gun and Gillam Abattoir's are on strike

and selling the place so he can get a job.

Oh, Terry.

(light music)

(birds chirping)

(door clicks)

You can't keep ignoring me.

I'm not.

Then let's talk about it.

Well, what's there to talk about?

You know,
middle-age farm hand on the scrap heap.

You just had to give it some time.

I did,
I practically begged people for work.

You know what that feels like?

I don't like being a scab,

but it's a lot better than the alternative.

If I didn't have a job and
had to depend on you,

would you think any less of me?

See, you just don't get it do you?

It's not about the money.

Then what?

Well, call me old-fashioned but a bloke

should be able to provide for his family.

He shouldn't have to depend on the Mrs.

I might not have much
left but I do have my pride.

And what's good's your pride

if it forces you to lie to me?

(sighs)

It's not worth it, you'll get another job.

You reckon,
now that everyone knows I'm a scab?

You can be miserable and working

or happy and not, take your pick!

There's something good waiting for you

just around the corner, I know it.

Yeah, I understand Brad
and we've always been more

than happy with the standard of service.

No.

Yes, I know.

But you,

well, you could've called.

Yes, I realize I'm not your only customer.

What, but you were the one
that sent the wrong phosphate!

Ah,

thank you.

Ah yes,

yeah, tomorrow morning would be great.

Well, I'll have to get back to
you on that one Brad, hmm.

All right then, okay, bye bye.

(phone beeps)

Can you believe it?

He had the nerve to ask me out again.

You do the helpless
female routine too well.

Ah, I'll take that as a compliment.

I'm sorry about the phosphate.

You know, I've been a bit distracted

with going to see Rose and everything.

No, no,
I'm the one that should be apologizing.

(sighs)

So,
what's happening with the rock phosphate.

Well, he's gonna come
over and discuss the matter.

Face-to-face.

How can you let him walk all over you

after what he's done?

I don't intend to.

(gasps)

Oh, and what brilliant business strategy

do you have planned for the toad this time?

Well, sometimes it pays to shout.

Sometimes it pays to be professional.

And sometimes it pays to purr, like a cat.

(car driving)

(comical music)

(car door slams)

So, how do I look?

This isn't gonna work.

Course it is.

Geez, you two scrub up well.

Wouldn't have recognized you.

Why thank you, Brad.

Brad, do you feel like some tea?

Yeah, don't mind if I do.

Mm,

you bake these?

Yeah, I love to bake. (Giggles)

I think we might have got off on

the wrong foot the other day.

You see,
we're not trying to be difficult Brad.

Quite the opposite, it's just well, despite

our obvious differences.

Hm.

We're all farmers, Brad.

Mm, and we like to be treated that way.

Haven't seen many
farmers that look like you two.

I know, about the phosphate you sent us.

Right, mix ups happen don't they?

If you wanna replace, no problem.

Now, how about another piece of that cake?

Sure.

So, about Friday night,

thought we could start
with a few beers at the pub.

Yeah,
I'll just have to check my diary first.

Ah, so when can you
deliver that rock phosphate?

Ah, first thing tomorrow.

You have the old stuff ready
to go and we'll be sweet.

Oh, well there's a bit of a problem there.

It's all over the east paddock.

Well,
you better have another cheque ready then.

Yeah, but you said you'd replace it.

Exchange it,
it's not my fault you ladies can't read.

But you were the idiot who
sent the wrong phosphate.

I know chicks like you, you stuff up.

Then think you can flash
those pretty little smiles

and get someone else to cop to the mistake,
forget it.

That's not how I do business.

No, we've seen how you do business.

You underhand, you're disreputable.

And,

(door slams)

you can forget about Friday night.

We were never going on a date.

I wouldn't go on a date with you,

if you were the last man alive.

Can't take a knock back I see.

(keys jingle)

(engine starts)

(engine roars)

(sighs)

Don't tell me I told you so.

He's a jerk, they're all the same.

(upbeat music)

(phone ringing)

(birds chirping)

(phone ringing)

(footsteps)

Drover's Run.

(gasps)

Hey, how's the birthday girl?

Are you excited about your party?

Oh, well it was supposed to be a surprise.

Ah, no.

No, of course I don't mind.

(sad music)

So, what did you get so far?

Makeup.

And what CDs?

Okay, yeah, I love you too.

(present drops)

(sniffs)

(drags feet)

(crying)

(knocking)

(door creaks)

Everything all right?

Rosie's first party with the boys.

Doesn't want her auntie there.

(dog whines)

Of course not, I mean I should've known.

(dog whines)

I'm sorry.

(sniffs)

She was so excited.

She told me everything that
she got for her birthday so far.

(sniffs)

Makeup,

clothes,

CDs.

She would've loved this stupid doll.

You know I remember when I was 13 I,

I hated being seen anywhere with my mum.

I'd even cross to the
other side of the street

when we went shopping.

Just in case I ran into a friend.

Didn't mean I didn't love her though.

It's not that.

Rose is my little girl.

And now she's a young woman.

And I wasn't there to see her grow up.

(footsteps)

(dog crying)

(sniffing)

(crying)

It's all right, don't cry.

(motorbike roars)

This fence has been busted for months,
Nick.

What you doing now, mate?

I thought I better leave the place

in good nick for the new tenants.

They could be here for a while.

S'pose I better give you a hand, huh?

(fence rattles)

You okay about this?

(sighs)

We could've turned Wilgul around you know.

We still can Nick, we're only leasing it.

Yeah.

It's not like we're leaving

because we couldn't make the place work,
is it?

No way, but who else is
gonna save Harry from himself?

Geez, we're good to him aren't we?

We are.

You wanna grab that sheet?

Got it.

(corrugated iron scraping)

No, it's a sensible thing to do.

You wouldn't get much
selling Wilgul at the moment.

But long-term lease, that's a good move.

We had a look at our finances,

you could see it was the only decision,

which meant we really had nowhere to go.

Sleep rough on someone
else's place or come home.

Well we can't have that,

Ryans boys turning into
a couple of swaggies.

(laughing) What will people
think if I let that happen?

Really appreciate it, dad, letting us stay.

Don't worry, you'll be earning your keep.

I never doubted that.

(slurps drink)

You know,
I always thought Wilgul had potential.

Maybe we could join it up
with Killarney at some stage.

Do some sort of a deal there.

That's more like it,
and no more talk of selling.

Sandra told me about
the offer she made you.

Pretty amazing woman, isn't she?

Making a sacrifice like that?

I knew there was a reason
I couldn't live without her.

And I know you wouldn't expect me to.

So, I'd just like to ask her, to move in.

Harry!

(laughing)

How can I say no?

I should've asked you sooner.

What do you say?

Welcome to Killarney.

(laughs)

(upbeat music)

So, next month you go visit Rose

whether you want to or not.

Yeah, just as long as you promise

to have that date with Nick.

You know, I'll give in to that.

Isn't that Brad's car?

(Charlie mooing)

Yeah, what's he still doing here?

Could have something to do with Charlie?

Oi, oi, get rid of this crazy bull will ya?

He's smashing up my car.

Geez Brad,

it's one big bull and
we're just silly little girls.

Ah!

(Charlie bellows)

Ay, do something will you?

I can't stay here all day.

Oi!

I'm sorry Brad,
we've got to go wash our hair.

Oh, and paint our toenails.

Yeah,
I've got this great color I could lend you.

Oh, thanks.

All right, all right, all right,
you've proved your point.

I'll replace the phosphate, no charge.

Ha, ha!

Yeah,
I don't really mind that drive to Manjimup.

No, it's scenic.

Yeah, gives you time to think.

Yeah.

Come back!

Please!

Bye, Brad.

(Charlie snorts)

(Charlie bellows)

(light music)

(birds chirping)

(door creaks)

(door bangs)

Couldn't sleep either, mate?

I had dreams Sandra was poisoning our food.

Well, we're not eating here every night,
right?

We're spending a lot
of time at the pub then.

(door squeaks)

(sniffs)

How do you reckon he's
looking now we're back?

He's all right, how long are we gonna last?

(laughs)

Morning boys!

Look, I've been thinking ah,

I know it's a pretty big house.

But we've all got our own lives

and I'd guess you'd like a bit of privacy.

Like you and Sandra must.

So,

(keys jingle)

Here's the answer.

The contents of your safety deposit box?

The old homestead down the hill.

I know it's not that flash but
we've had visitors stay there

and it would give us all a bit more space.

Not that I'm throwing you out,

it's great to have you back and ah,

if you wanna stay here you can.

No, that's fine, homestead's great dad.

Might need a few repairs.

No problem.

Well how about springing
in for a new chopper

while you're at it?

Alex, I had a heart attack.

Didn't lose my mind.

All right.

(relaxed music)

He's got us back,
no need to bribe us anymore.

Well, they wanna make sure we stay.

He already knows we will.

(door squeaks)

(door bangs)

Happy birthday!

But it's not for months.

Well, I think this present's

about 20 years too late, actually.

Hm.

(paper crinkles)

My very own Barbie.

Dunno if I can keep it
though after giving Brad

such a hard time for
treating us like bimbos.

Oh of course you can,

she's plastic, we're real, big difference.

(laughing)

So, what are you gonna give Rose then?

A CD player.

That's a big present.

I'm soft touch right?

Mm.

(Barbie falls)

She doesn't know how to stand up.

You know, I feel like that some days too.

So, she's not that unreal then?

No,

well, except that waist.

Yeah, and the legs.

Those tiny, little feet.

She does back flips quite well.

(laughing)

Action Barbie.

Whoo!
