VOICEOVER: Previously on The Heights...

I'm looking into setting
up a safe injecting room.

We would need all those details
put into a formal proposal

before we'd even
consider being involved.

It looks like you have
a lot of work to do.

Repression became my coping strategy,

and I don't want to do that anymore.

With Mich and Sabine dating,
I think we need to hold off for a bit.

Mich has an issue?

We're looking at
offers in the high sixes.

Yeah, I'm going to be
opening it tomorrow at 9:30,

if you'd like to come by then.

(KIDS LAUGH)

Sorry, I'm just going to have
to pop you on hold for a moment.

Hey! Stop that!

What are you doing? You're hurting her.

We're just playing Big Foot.

What's Big Foot?

It's a game where you stomp on feet.

Frankie, is that true?

Well, no, it doesn't look
like a very nice game.

It looks mean and painful.

Mum.

Well, no, she needs
to know that it's not on.

Let's just go home.

Would you like to tell
me what that was about?

It was Big Foot.

(SCOFFS)

I'm so sorry, Daniel.

Um... So will I be seeing you tomorrow?

(KIDS LAUGH)

- (LEONIE AND CLAUDIA LAUGH)
- You two looked good out there.

Oh, as if. (LAUGHS)

I'm yet to master the art
of Jamaican Dancehall.

You know I love your Elaine dance moves.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

- Booking's at 7:00, right?
- Mm-hm.

I've just gotta get
some stuff from my desk.

Okay.

Wait.

Wait.

Is this a work dinner
or a kissy-kissy dinner?

"Kissy-kissy dinner"?
What are you, like, five?

- (BOTH LAUGH)
- Give me a break.

I haven't been laid in forever.

Not as long as five years.

Unless you've broken the drought.

Oh, wow, the rains are here!

Please stop. (CHUCKLES)

So are you two...

Yeah, I think we are.

Mm! Next thing you know,

you'll be moving in and
buying a Subaru together.

Oh! That is a blatant stereotype.

- (CHUCKLES)
- We'll see.

So if your mum's allergic to fur,
why not get a fish?

I'm not allowed.

When I was a kid,
I went through 23 fighting fish.

Serial fish-killer.

So did you kill them all at once or...

No, they died for no reason
and Mum just kept buying more.

Sure, sure. No reason.

We actually had a funeral for each one,

with a headstone and everything.

Our entire backyard
became a fish cemetery.

Yeah, you should definitely
not get any more fish.

Might get a snack first.

- Deep-fried fighter fish?
- (CHUCKLES) Yeah.

Might wash my hand first.

Sorry.

- (FRONT DOOR SHUTS)
- CLAUDIA: Oh! (SIGHS)

Oh, hey, can you come and
give me a hand with these?

I can't.

What? You're right there. Just grab one.

- I've just gotta wash my hands.
- What?

What do you need to wash your hands for?

Hi, Mich.

Oh.

Right.

Well, I hope you need to
wash your hands too, Mich.

Hey, come on, we gotta go. In the car.

They sent around memes of me.

- Who did?
- The girls at school.

Because of what you did yesterday.

- Show me.
- No, Mum.

Hey, I'm not going to
take your phone from you,

but I do need to see them.

(SIGHS)

- So they are bullying you?
- Just leave it.

Get in the car.
We're gonna go to the school.

I'm going to talk to Mrs Blazic.

- No!
- Frankie...

If you tell the teachers,
it's only going to get worse.

I'll get pulled out of class
and we'll have a meeting

and the girls are just
gonna hate me even more.

Hey, come here. Come here.

Listen...

I'm really sorry that
this is happening to you.

It's not fair.

Can I stay home today?

I'm... sorry, peanut. I...
I've got to go to work.

Please, Mum.

Don't make me go.

Please.

(STUDENTS CHATTER AND LAUGH)

Hey. I'm back, bitches.

So it's official?

Got any sour worms today?

I've literally been here,
like, five minutes.

- Tomorrow?
- No.

No, no more locker shop.

I just wanna focus on being a student.

So you got the same timetable?

Uh...

Uh... Hey!

- Hey, hey, hey.
- I've gotta get to class.

- I'll catch you later then, yeah?
- I'm busy.

- Busy at lunch?
- Yep.

Doing what?

- Debating.
- Okay, after that?

I'm... waxing my chest hair.

On next week's episode of Arcadia High,

will Kam and Rose figure it out?

Or will he go home to a box of tissues?

Oh, you're so gross.

So how was your mum
about last night's thing?

Does she hate me? Am I banned forever?

She's fine.
She's totally cool with that stuff.

- Yeah, she is pretty cool.
- Mm.

- So is she home tonight?
- I dunno. Why?

I was just wondering if you
wanted to hang out again.

Oh.

Um...

Or we don't have to.

Might be good if we just have
the night to study and stuff.

Yeah, no worries.

- Are you okay?
- All good.

Better get to class.

(SIGHS HEAVILY)

I've never been interviewed before.

Oh, no, once for
my high-school magazine.

I topped the state in Chem.

Irrelevant detail,
don't know why I mentioned it.

- Ooph.
- Are you okay?

- Carpal tunnel.
- How long have you had it?

- It's flared up recently.
- Yeah, you should get that looked at.

Yeah, I'm waiting to see a specialist.

You're a doctor,
you know how these things go.

Ah, I certainly do.

Unlike interviews.

- A bit nervous.
- You'll be fine.

- Well, fine, but not polished.
- That's okay.

Not like Ms Worsfield.
Are you talking to her?

- We've put a call in, yeah.
- Yeah.

She is definitely polished.

Well, polished is one word for it.

Slippery is another. Snake-like.

Oh, that woman is a nasty piece of work

with some very questionable
views on male privilege.

- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.

We have a bit of history.

Our kids used to date,
so fair to say we are not besties.

Unless besties egg each other's houses.

Don't know, maybe they do.

Okay.

Can you give me a bit of background
information on the injecting room?

Yeah, sure. Um...

- Do you want to start recording?
- I have been.

So, background.

- Hi.
- Hey.

Thanks for taking her for a bit.

I would bring her to the showing,
but it's not a great look.

I'll never turn down free labour.

Go put your bag in the back,
then I'll show you how to do stocktake.

(SIGHS) I really don't know what to do.

She's adamant that I don't
tell the teachers at school,

but I can't just sit around and let
these little witches torment her.

Well, can you speak to the parents?

I'm considering it,
but the girls might retaliate.

She'll figure it out.
It will make her resilient.

No way. You need to shut that
stuff down as hard as you can.

That's what we did when
Ryan was getting bullied.

Gave 'em a taste of their own medicine.

- Did that work?
- Hell, yeah, it did.

I'm not really sure that
violence is the answer.

Well, how did you deal with
bullies when you were at school?

I never really got bullied.

- Oh, so you were the bully.
- No, I wasn't.

I just... stayed out
of all of that stuff.

Really?

Oh, my God.

So what stopped you?

It was on the whole time.

I am slagging off Juliana,
mouth running off like an idiot.

I called her a snake.

I said that I egged her house.

It's bad, isn't it?

LEONIE: I'm just trying
to imagine the headlines.

"Local egg thrower sets
up safe injecting room."

Mm. "Egg maniac wants needles for all."

Ohh! How do I fix this?

If those quotes go in there,

there's no way Juliana's
going to help me.

The whole thing's dead in the water.

You need suction.

What now?

Something you can offer the journo
to keep the quotes out of the paper.

Look at you with the clever advice.

I've sold my soul for a
few basketballs in my time.

What do you suggest?

Find something she wants
more than those quotes.

(STUDENTS CHATTER AND LAUGH)

So just say sorry.

- I'm not even sure what I did.
- It doesn't matter.

Believe me, you did something.
So just apologise.

Maybe she thinks I'm
pressuring her to have sex.

- Wait, are you?
- No.

At least I don't think I am.
I did ask to go over to her place.

Maybe she thought I was.

He's there almost every night.

Well, he obviously
can't get enough of you.

Wait, have you guys gone there?

No, not yet.

Has he been hassling you to?

No, not at all.

We've been doing other stuff.

It's not...

Wait, don't tell me it's
all give and no receive?

I've been receiving.

But not enjoying?

Have you ever...

- Skydived?
- Come on.

- Orgasmed?
- Mm.

Yeah.

With a dude?

Hell, no.

Boys are rubbish at that.

Did you with Dane?

No.

But I hoped it might
be different with Mich.

Maybe she does need time to study.

Yeah, chicks really
do mean what they say.

Yeah, helpful. Cheers.

In all seriousness,
whatever Sabine's pissed about,

it's probably got
nothing to do with you.

- Are you gonna tell him?
- No.

So you're just going
to stay unsatisfied?

You should do the sandwich approach.

The what?

It's where you send one meme

and then, like, four hectic texts

and then you garnish it with a LOL.

Is that what you're
planning to do with Kam?

No. He's not my boyfriend.

What about Rose? You guys aren't
even dating. Why should you care?

- You know, I still...
- Like her.

Yeah. And I don't want
her to be mad at me.

I hear that.

Look, honestly,
I thought she'd be happy that I'm back.

- I'm stoked he's back.
- I thought you cancelled him.

No, I... I just... I put him in the
recycle bin for self-improvement

and he can come out when he's better.

But he sorted out everything
with the other kid from Embleton.

- I know.
- So?

So... I just... I want him to
jump through a few more hoops.

Oh! Remind me never to date you.

IRIS: So next time,
you'll remember what the trick is?

Don't overstuff them.

Yeah, otherwise they will be sad,
fat caterpillars.

- Hey, darling.
- Hey, Mum.

You ready to go?

What do you say?

Thanks for looking after me, Mrs Tran.

Now go get your bag.

So what's the plan?
Are you going to tell the teachers?

I think I might have
found another option.

(STUDENTS CHATTER AND LAUGH)

Leonie's going to pick
you up from school.

But it's lunchtime.
The day's almost over.

I know, darling, but you're gonna
have to face those girls eventually.

- It might as well be today.
- I don't want to.

Oh! I know, peanut.

But I do have something that might help.

Boots?

Come on, swing your legs around.

I want to tell you something.

When I was at school,

there was this girl, Melanie Chambers.

And one time, we were at camp

and I was up talking late at night,

making everybody laugh.

And Mel Chambers
was in the tent next to me

and she went and dobbed on me.

And I had to chop all of the
wood on my own the next day.

I was so angry,

that after that,

every time that Mel Chambers
walked behind my chair,

I would shove it back,
right into her tummy.

Mum!

I know.

I thought it was okay
because I was angry,

but I realise now that it was
a really horrible thing to do.

I'm not proud of myself.

But the reason I'm telling you

is because I always want
to be honest with you.

Then what happened?

Melanie Chambers came to school one day

with her brother's Blundstones on,

and when I went to
push my chair into her,

she kicked me as hard as she could

in the shins.

I left her alone after that.

I realised that I wasn't as
tough as I thought I was.

And you want me to do that?

(CHUCKLES) No.

But I do want you to protect
those beautiful feet of yours.

And those girls are going
to have to stomp pretty hard

to get through these bad boys.

(CHUCKLES)

And if they don't stop?

Well, then I want you
to stick up for yourself.

Tell a teacher, call me.

I want you to show them that
you will not be bullied.

Do you think you can do that?

- Yeah.
- Yeah?

Come here.

Mm!

Alright, off you go.

Love you.

(SIGHS)

How are we going to rehearse this
debate when we're missing a student?

Kam?

- You heard we're missing a debater?
- No.

- Stop, no.
- Yes. Come on.

Miss, Kamran's volunteered
to fill in for Wardsy.

- Yep.
- Welcome, Kamran.

We're just dividing
the team into groups.

You can join the affirmative side.

Cool. Uh... What are we debating?

"The best things in life are free."

He is the best wrist guy in the state.

- Normally takes weeks to get in.
- I really appreciate this.

Oh, no problem. I know how
annoying carpal tunnel can be.

- Here we are.
- Well, thank you.

Um... Can I just check...

I won't use the quotes.

(STUDENT COUGHS)

"The best things in life are free."

(SIGHS) Okay, um...

What are the best things in life?

You might say an expensive house,

um... swimming pool in the backyard,

nice clothes, maybe the newest phone.

Sure, those things are great, right?

But what are those things
without people to share it with?

Family, friends, loved ones.

You can't buy that sort of connection.

Okay, um...

I used to think

not having a life and
studying till my eyes bled

was the most important thing,

that having money and being a
part of some elite group was...

the only path to happiness.

But it's not.

Sure, money...

Money can make your problems
go away, for a bit.

I've seen that.

But what you might find too late

is the best day of your
life had already passed...

and it was with an amazing girl,

in a free art gallery,

drawing stupid pictures of each
other and making each other laugh.

And, um... it didn't cost a cent.

(SCATTERED APPLAUSE)

Thanks.

Thank you, Kam. That was a very
specific and unusual argument.

Rose, can you please present
your team's closing debate?

So that was a load of crap.

Free art gallery?

Art's not free, everyone.

Someone's got to pay for it.

- MICH: Hey.
- Hey.

So... I'm sorry.

For what?

I can tell you're pissed, but I
don't exactly know what I did wrong.

What do you think it is?

- Am I pressuring you to have sex?
- No.

- 'Cause I can wait.
- I know.

And you weren't too keen
to hang out tonight.

- That's not...
- That's not what?

I'm fine. Don't worry about it.

That's what you say
when you're not fine.

Really, it's not a big deal.

That means it's a really big deal.

I don't feel pressured, okay?

Then what is it?

I...

I just don't feel...

satisfied.

By what I'm doing?

Well... yeah.

- I shouldn't have said anything.
- No, it's okay.

You've gotta study,
so I'll catch you later.

RENEE: I've had eight
requests for the contract,

and I know at least three
of those are genuine buyers,

so as soon as you could get that
over to me, that would be great.

Okay, thanks, Caroline.

I'll talk to you soon.

What happened? How
did it go with the girls?

They thought my boots were awesome.

Really?

- Mm.
- Oh.

They're gonna go get some of their own.

And they wanted me to come
over to Belinda's house

one day after school.

They think that we could be friends.

And what did you say to that?

That I don't want to be friends
with people who are mean to me.

You are the best girl ever!

Thanks, Mum.

What's for dinner?

Hey.

- Whoa!
- Jeez!

What are you doing here?

Kat left her assignment at mine.

- Was that porn?
- No.

Come on, mate, look I know you're 16...

and it's normal to look at that stuff,
but you've got a bedroom!

It's research!

(SCOFFS) Research, eh?

I'm being serious.

Okay. Well...

Is there anything you
want to ask me about?

Maybe I can help.

Apparently...

I'm not...

satisfying...

Sabine.

She told you that?

Right.

Sex is an intimate thing...

I don't need the chat.

Actually, I think you do.

Uh...

Watching porn isn't the way
to learn how to get better.

That isn't real.

Where else am I supposed to go
to find out what I'm doing wrong?

Have you asked her about it?

Not really.

- Why not?
- I dunno, because it's embarrassing.

You want to be good
at it from the get-go?

Pretty much.

Yeah.

Well, the thing is it takes
a while to figure it out.

Teenage sex in general is not great.

Especially for women, I think.

You're not making me feel any better.

Okay, the most important
sexual organ is up here.

Your ears?

No, smartarse. Your brain.

It's about communication.

You need to be talking to her about it.

Make her feel comfortable
to ask for what she wants.

Okay.

Thanks.

Can we never mention this ever again?

Like, any of it.

Mention what?

(MUSIC PLAYS ON TV)

How'd it feel to get absolutely
destroyed in debating today?

It was great. Thanks for asking.

Bit of a win for the
public-school system, hey?

Yep.

I, um...

I really liked the part about the, uh...

awesome chick in
the art gallery, though.

You did, huh?

Even if the general
argument was weak as.

Well... I meant it.

The best things in life are free,
after all.

You're gonna pay for that.

(SIGHS)

(KNOCK AT DOOR)

- Who is it?
- MICH: Me!

Hey.

Hey.

- RYAN: What can I get ya?
- PAV: Hey. Whisky, thanks. Neat.

You know people spend 24
hours a week on their phones?

Yeah, I have a reason.

I'm reading the article I'm in
about the safe injecting room.

Fantastic.

No, it's not good.

Really?

No, I mean it's good,
but that's kind of a bad thing.

Uh... I'm confused.

I did something a bit icky

in order to keep a
quote out of the article.

Not that kind of icky.

We did a deal,

she doesn't mention my verbal
diarrhoea about Juliana

and I get her in to see a
specialist to fix her carpal tunnel.

Gotcha.

So now I feel gross.

So you helped a professional
contact out with a medical problem.

That seems legit.

Yeah, nice spin,

but the appointment I got her means
that somebody else got bumped.

So I've kind of broken
my Hippocratic oath here.

Right. You want
this injecting room, right?

Yeah, of course.

Sounds like politics to me.

I don't envy you.

Ugh.

How are you, anyway?

Not bad.

You?

Apart from the verbal diarrhoea,
of course.

Yeah, I'm fine.

Good.

Yeah, good.

(SIGHS)

So...

was that...

better?

Yeah.

Heaps.

It's awkward to talk about.

Yeah.

But it shouldn't be.

If you were born with a sixth toe,
would you have it removed?

- Depends.
- On what?

If it was uncomfortable
in my footy boots.

I'd totally get rid of it.

Who wants mutant feet?

I'd still go out with you.

Thanks.

I'm gonna get some water.

Mm!

(SIGHS)

Yes!

(WATER RUNS)

CLAUDIA: Hi, Mich.

Hey, Dr Rosso.

Uh-uh.

That is one small step for man,

one giant leap for womankind.

Stop!

Hey, what the hell do
you think you're doing?

The formula, you didn't pay for it.

- Oh, I...
- I'm calling the police.

You are wonderful.

I love you.

ANA: What the hell?

Got a few fans going.
I know how important a home is to you.

This is a really nice thing to do.

If I actually came out, would I be okay?
