Previously on McLeod's Daughters.
My daughter, Rose.
Rosie.
She lives with my sister Michelle,
everyone thought that was for the best.
Rosie now thinks that Michelle is her mom.
Rose is my little girl, and now she's a young woman.
And I wasn't there to see her grow up.
Hello there.
Kate Manfredi, B.Sc. Agricultural Science.
Dave Brewer, Sagittarius. Oh.
Hello.
No, no, no, it's Dave.
Brewer.
G'day Sully how are ya?
Yeah, yeah, of course I remember ya.
How's the city goin'?
Right go on, look I'll just get him for ya.
Righto.
It's for you, darling.
I just moved into a place down Gungellan Way.
Right, you anywhere near Killarney?
I think so.
Property I'm leasing's called Wilgul.
Get outta here.
May I have this dance?
Thought you'd never ask.
(upbeat music)
Why don't you wanna be with your friends?
It was like this yesterday, it doesn't want
anything to do with the herd.
It's lethargic, not eating, obviously.
Just an idea, but maybe you should
get that vet out to have a look.
What's his name again?
You mean Dave?
Yeah, that's him, Dave.
Wouldn't do any harm.
Maybe I'll give him a call.
Oh, it's okay,
I'll give him a call as soon as we get back.
Oh, visitor.
Who's that?
There she is.
Who is it?
I have no idea.
Rose.
Oh, my God.
Is everything okay?
Great, now I'm here.
This is fantastic.
Where's Michelle, where's your mom?
Rose came on her own on the bus.
Don't be mad.
Oh no, I'm not mad, you're here.
How long can you stay?
Forever.
I've come to live with you.
(dramatic music)
♪ It'll take some time to find your heart and come back home ♪
♪ You could walk for miles, cross every river ♪
♪ And find you're not alone ♪
♪ 'Cause I'll be there ♪
♪ You're not alone ♪
♪ 'Cause I'll be there ♪
I love it here.
There's so much to do in the country.
How many horses have you got?
We've got nine horses, I could show you if you want.
I must've eaten about a hundred pies on the way here.
I'm a bit over the tomato sauce, though.
(Tess and Rose laugh)
I just spoke to Michelle.
What did she say?
She said its okay for you to stay for a couple of days.
I'm never going back there, it's evil living with her.
It's like being in prison.
Oh it can't be that bad.
You don't know what it's like.
She picks on me all the time.
Well about what?
Oh you know, picking up clothes, doing the dishes.
Right, all that.
Michelle, your mom said that you were having
a little bit of trouble with your school work.
Just because mom was a genius at school
doesn't mean I have to be.
She doesn't want me to embarrass her, that's all.
Oh no, that's not it.
Michelle loves you.
You reckon?
She never shuts up.
(cell phone beeping)
Excellent!
I can get texts. From your mom?
As if.
(dramatic music)
Hey, I love your house.
I've seen this house in my dreams.
Really?
Well, not exactly, it was a lot bigger,
and had more windows, and more pictures.
But it kinda looks the same.
Oh, look at her, she's gorgeous.
That's a him.
That's Turbo.
Hello mate, how are ya?
Hey, so, your mom told me about Zack.
Was that message from him?
Mom hates Zack.
So why don't you tell me about this guy.
Roma, 2000?
I should tell you about that Roma one.
It was a stinkin' hot day.
No way, there's no signal at all down here.
I'm in a dead spot, but if you go outside.
So, where do I sleep?
This way.
The bed works.
You're crazy.
I know, I learned it from you.
(Rose and Stevie laugh)
I love this room.
That's me up there, and my favorite color's purple.
This could be my room.
Well that's the way I planned it for you.
How come?
'Cause I was gonna invite you here for the holidays.
See, this is great.
Coming here was like destiny or something.
Does TV work?
Very quiet down there.
Yeah, well, the squealing and hugging stage is over.
Think Stevie's told Rose the truth yet?
No, I reckon we'd know about it.
They'd be shouting,
and throwing bits of furniture through the windows.
Who do you think will do the chucking?
They're gonna share it around.
I've got some bad news for you girls.
Hi, Dave.
It's not gonna work.
What's not gonna work.
You've hung the gate the wrong way.
First rule on the farm, a gate must open right to left.
I haven't heard that.
Cows get confused.
They go through the gate,
turn left instead of right, big mess.
That doesn't make sense, how would they?
Joke, I get it.
Your looking for the crook cow, she's in the yards.
Righto, that's me then.
Actually, I'm heading in that direction.
Okay, as long as I'm not interrupting in any.
No, we've finished here, haven't we?
Yeah, yeah.
I don't really have anything to do, so.
Good aye.
Well, we should get moving, I've got a lot to do.
Not that much, but quite a bit when I think about it.
(dramatic music)
I ruled out worms straight away,
and then I wondered if it was LDA?
Book says it is more common than people think.
(cow moos)
LDA?
Left displaced abomasum, where the four stomachs swings
left instead of right.
Yeah, it's not LDA, I checked.
You know about LDA.
Of course, you're a vet.
What's that?
It's a keto stick.
Yeah, I've got to, I've got to give the cow
a bit of a tickle under her,
what's the scientific name?
G-spot.
Of course, urine test, of course.
Yeah, I've used the keto test
on cows all over the district.
Some of them still write to me.
I'll have to remember that one.
Well, sure but, only works on cows.
Oh no, I.
Okay, that's a joke.
Okay love, bottom's up.
Kade.
Here's trouble, landlords.
Up for a game of pool later,
I hear there's a couple of bikers
just itching for a rematch.
You'd be game.
You two go ahead, start without me.
Listen mac, there's a gum
come down in the western paddock.
Might wanna take a look at it.
Is it a nice one?
It's lying on the fence, what's left of it.
Animals gettin' through?
No, property maintenance, it's on the lease.
Is he always like this?
Mate, he'll never let up.
Just fix the fence.
Right.
Listen, I was thinking of dropping over
tomorrow with a six-pack.
Yeah, I'll be around.
Unless, of course, I'm down in the west paddock
with a lumpy four by two.
See you later. Righto.
(car engine starts)
Hey.
Rose settled?
Yeah, she's unpacking.
I'm gonna take her riding.
It's all happening a lot faster than I thought.
This is it, I reckon.
You're gonna tell her.
Yeah, the moment's comin'.
Just gotta pick that right time.
She's very wound up.
Yeah, well a lot's happening to her.
I mean, she almost sees me as a second mother anyways.
So what did Michelle say?
She said they'd been fighting a lot last few months.
Michelle's happy for me to spend some time with her,
do what I gotta do.
She sounds pretty calm about it.
Why don't you invite Michelle up here?
To help explain.
It's a huge step for her as well.
I'm Rose's real mother.
I think I should be able to handle it.
Yeah, but you're gonna turn her whole world upside-down.
It's upside-down already.
I mean, I'll be settin' things straight.
(dramatic music)
Hi. Hey.
Oh, you've been shopping.
Yep, couldn't help ourselves.
How are things with you?
There's been a bit of excitement around here.
Yeah?
Hi, I'm Rose.
G'day.
I'm living here now with auntie Stevie.
That Rose?
Horses.
I didn't know Stevie asked her to.
A bit of a surprise to everybody, including Stevie.
It'll be fun, having her niece around.
I bought you something, could be useful.
Found it at Bangawara, not that's it's a present
or anything like that.
Give it to her, mate.
I must be special, 'cause Bangawara's hours away.
We were kind of passing by anyway, so.
Here you go.
What is it?
It's a weed gun.
Oh, wow.
You cook the weeds and those cactus.
It's organic.
Quick as 'bout a girl's hat
for a piece of farm equipment.
Well I think it's beautiful,
I've always wanted my very own flamethrower.
Is that right? Yeah.
Now that's impressive.
Yeah, Nick found it for me.
Oh, nice.
A bunch of flowers is so last century.
Yeah, well I'll drop by over tomorrow,
and help you fire it up, if you like.
All right.
Have you been doin' a bit of travelin' about you mate?
Actually, next time your in the city
you could get me a flame gun maybe.
I'm not going in much anymore.
Oh, right, nevermind.
There's gas as well.
So, how's the cow?
Oh, yeah, crazy about me.
See you tomorrow.
Righto.
(upbeat music)
Now you watch this one Rose, he's mad and bad.
I bet, don't stand between him and a feedbag.
Now you're talkin'.
This your boyfriend, auntie Stevie?
Watch it you.
You okay?
Course I am, Rose is here.
So you wanted it this way, yeah?
Sure, gonna go for a little ride,
maybe have a little talk.
That's good.
You bet it's good.
You don't wanna save up those surprises for too long.
No.
(upbeat music)
(Stevie laughs)
We should rest for a second.
That was awesome!
Yeah, yeah, we should just have a talk.
Yeah, that'd be good.
I don't know if you feel anything,
but when we're together. It's great isn't it?
Race back to the house.
(upbeat music)
Yeah, there's no hurry.
I'm nervous, picking the right time
is harder than I thought.
What about this?
Stevie, forget about the clothes.
What are you going to say to Rose?
Well, I don't know, that's why
I'm doing the whole clothes thing.
No, how 'bout you practice on me.
Go on, you've probably done it
in your head a hundred times.
Rose, you know how people often say that we're alike?
Well that's because I'm your mother.
That's kind of a little blunt.
Maybe you should talk a bit about your life first.
How it was before she came along.
When I was 15, I wanted everything to happen so fast.
I thought, no matter what I did, it'd all work out.
I didn't have any plans for the future.
I borrowed a pair of your boots, is that okay?
I trust you, they're my favorites.
See, I knew that even without you telling me.
Isn't that amazing?
Yeah it is, isn't it?
Hold on, where was I?
I guess, when I was 14, I met this boy.
I have to tell you something.
I'm in the middle of telling you something.
Zack, cute huh?
Yeah, he has nice eyes.
He's coming to live with us in the cottage.
Isn't that fantastic?
We set it all up by phone.
Rose. So, what's your news?
Go on.
It doesn't matter, my news can wait.
Rose has no idea what she's doing.
You told her that?
Of course not, not yet.
What does she need with a boy now anyway, she's 13.
It's not as if she can do anything.
Well that's the theory.
No, it's not gonna happen.
But you had Rose when you were not
much older than she is now.
Yeah and I'm not gonna let her
make the same stupid mistake.
What, fall in love?
No, get pregnant.
So you're gonna tell her that she was a mistake?
No, I don't know what to do.
Someone just tell me what to do.
You know when I was younger,
and mom started spouting orders,
then I just did exactly the opposite.
So I should let Zack come and shack up with her?
Is that your brilliant idea?
He can sleep on the couch.
Good morning.
What's everyone so serious about?
Our fencing wire.
We were just talking about fencing wire.
Can I help?
Why don't you go grab some breakfast?
I've had breakfast, I'm ready for work.
No, you don't have to do that.
No, you know what, if Rose is gonna live here
then she should know about the work.
Off you go then.
Great.
Well looks like it's you, me, and the fencing wire.
The main thing to remember with this
is to keep it really tight.
Wanna have a go?
Can you do it for me one more time?
(cell phone beeping)
Yeah, a text from Zack.
Then you get your wire.
Can't wait until he gets here.
We can ride all day, and do whatever we want.
We'll be, like, married.
I got married once.
Yeah? Yeah.
But I got a glimpse into my future and all I could see was
screaming babies and daytime TV.
Babies?
Yeah.
No way.
Anyways, I was way too young.
(cell phone beeping)
That's Zack.
All right that's it.
It's your turn, do it.
I'm sick of this, it's boring.
This is what we do here, this is work.
I know that.
Rose, no one gets to ride around here
all day for fun, you know.
You work and work, and then, maybe, once a week,
if you're lucky, you get to into town and go to the pub.
But you're too young, so you'd have to stay outside
in which case yo have to go home.
You go to bed, you get up the next morning,
and you do it all over again.
That's your life.
I'm going back.
We haven't finished here yet.
I don't wanna do it anymore, I've got a headache.
You can't just leave in the middle of a job.
I can, Stevie's my auntie,
no way would she get mad with me.
You have to wait for me you don't know the way back.
I do, too.
Rose.
Fine, go, I don't care.
It's losing condition.
The blood tests are back.
You can strike off liver abscess, and intestinal cancer.
What about ulcers?
Yeah, that too.
Can you grab that post for me, please?
I just wanna, lever it hard into the ribcage.
Nice and easy, girl.
Here we go.
(cow mooing)
It's hardware disease.
Hardware disease?
Right, right, or it could be chemist's disease,
or hairdresser's disease.
Yeah, she swallowed a hairball.
It's a bit of metal in the gut.
Swallowing a bit of wire
can puncture their stomach lining, and cause problems.
This hardware disease, is there a cure?
I'll need to get my magnet gun.
Magnet gun, of course.
Magnet gun.
Nice, very nice.
This a fantasy of yours, Kane?
What do you reckon mate, beautiful or what?
What.
Mate, haven't you seen the latest edition of Hot Wheels?
Pink's the in color.
Yeah, yeah, get away.
I'm doin' it for a mate.
Your friend wants a pink car?
It's a surprise for his girlie.
He's got it bad.
Yeah, I'll say.
So where's Nick, couldn't make it?
He's, reckons one of his trough pipes is leaking.
He wanted to go and check it out.
Trough pipes, nasty.
Mr. Excitement that brother of yours.
Tell you what mate,
you inherited all the brains in your family.
I'll drink to that.
Good on ya.
Maybe it's missing a part.
Maybe you've broken it already.
You know what, I reckon you bought me a dud.
Bet all the other girls' flamethrowers work.
Can I tell you a secret?
This is the first time
I've exchanged flammable fluids before.
Oh really?
You got the hose all tangled, your standing on it.
Take her easy.
Your saying I'm too rough?
It's a very delicate piece of equipment, Tess.
I'll try to remember that.
Then again, could be that
you just haven't turned it on enough.
(Tess laughs)
This magnet gun.
Yeah, think of a cat's bell inside a plastic cage.
Turn it up, here.
Anything I can do to help?
Yeah, yeah, you could find me
some sulfur for the infection.
I'm gonna need some later.
Right, I'll go get the sulfur then.
Here, try to turn it up a bit.
Whoa.
You're a natural. Yep.
There's no worry.
Sorry to interrupt,
I think I found the problem with your beast.
I might need a hand, Tess.
Oh, okay.
What do you reckon, mate?
Isn't that beautiful?
Cheers, better make this the last one,
get on to that fence Nick was on me about.
Need a hand?
No, I'll be right.
I tell ya what though, you could do me another favor.
Are you in town tomorrow?
Yeah, early on.
Could you come back by Morrison Road, pick me up?
I gotta drop this little beauty off to my mate down there.
Yeah, no worries.
Be about 9:30.
That'd be perfect, good on ya mate.
Where's Rose?
She took off, she got bored.
Well why didn't you stop her?
Well I'm not a babysitter, Stevie.
She doesn't know the property Jodi, she could be anywhere.
What do you want me to do, wrestle her to the ground?
Follow the eastern fence line,
if she comes back you get her to stay, and, yeah,
wrestle her to the ground if you have to.
(dramatic music)
Rose!
Stop, Rose!
I feel great.
What is wrong with you?
The first rule of this property is
you don't go off riding by yourself.
What were you thinking?
The horse made me do it. (Laughs)
This isn't a joke, Rose.
What if something happened to you?
What if you hurt yourself?
I wouldn't know where to start looking for you.
You sound just like my mother.
I sound like that because.
I'm so glad you're not, that'd be really weird.
(dramatic music)
I think you have to be a teenager
to understand a teenager, and sadly,
I just don't speak their language anymore.
You're not alone, neither can I.
You never could, even when you were a teenager.
It's here, traumatic reticulitis.
Everyone just calls it hardware disease.
What, you know about it too?
I thought Dave was making it up.
Why would he do that?
I don't know, show me up.
Oh, I said something about hairdresser's disease,
he's gonna think I'm a total idiot.
You do like him.
What?
Why else would you care what he thinks?
That's crazy, he's rude, up himself, a smart-ass.
He is kinda good-looking.
I suppose, if you like that
square-jaw, big smile kind of thing.
(sighs) All right, I admit I do quite like him,
sometimes, and then he talks.
Yeah, that sounds like Dave.
Why do men insist on being stupid?
If he just acted as smart as he actually is,
then he'd be the perfect boyfriend.
(Jodi gasps) Not that I'm looking.
Oh God.
Rose.
Rose!
(dramatic music)
Automatic suspension.
Family planning, that's just great.
(dramatic music)
Yeah, (laughs) okay.
I'd better go, I love you.
That's not my phone, you can't just walk in
and use it without asking.
Sorry for committing a crime.
Leave the fridge door open and the food will spoil.
I haven't finished eating yet.
Yes you have.
What about your horse?
When were you going to water him, and brush him down?
Okay, I'll do it.
It's too late, I've already done it.
Why are you picking on me?
You're being been suspended from school?
You went through my pack?
It fell out, but that's not the point.
That's my personal property, you've got no right.
Why haven't you finished your assignment?
Because I'm stupid.
School's a waste of time.
You are not stupid, lazy maybe.
Rose, this is stupid.
Family planning.
You've gone through everything I own.
What do you think your doing with this?
It's none of your business, everybody does it.
Everybody.
What would you know?
I know more than you.
Rose, get back in here.
Stop right there, I haven't finished talking to you yet.
Leave me alone.
Come back here immediately, young lady.
You can't tell me what to do.
Fine, if that's the way you want it.
You're grounded.
You're not my boss, you're just jealous
cause I've got Zack, and he loves me,
and nobody cares about you!
Rose, come back here!
Don't you think this is the end of it!
I don't care what you think anymore!
(dramatic music)
Rose grabbed enough dinner for
two shearers and went to her room.
I doubt she'll come out.
I called her young lady.
And you grounded her, that was a nice touch.
As if there's so many places she can go.
If it's any consolation, I think she ignored you.
Could've been my mother.
You were very impressive,
Could've been Michelle.
Having Rose come and live with me
is all I've been dreaming about, forever.
How'd you imagine it would be?
I didn't plan beyond the day that I tell her.
As if painting her room
the right color makes me a mother.
I've done such a classic job of screwing this up.
I have no idea what to do now.
Rose.
(knocking on door)
Rose, can we please talk?
(dramatic music)
Rosie, I love you so much.
I'm your mother.
(dramatic music)
(dramatic guitar music)
What's happening.
Your mate not here yet?
No, he's around, he works here.
Isn't that the ugliest thing you've ever seen?
I sure hope his girlfriend likes it.
I doubt it somehow, hang on a sec.
G'day, good thanks.
I got a message for one of your blokes here.
Jimmy, yeah, can you tell him
his ute's turned up out by the main gate.
Thanks, righto.
Question for ya, say you've got
this really hot girlfriend, so hot in fact, so lovely
you can almost forgive other blokes for checking her out.
Almost.
Comes a point where you gotta draw the line.
Lotta vultures waiting in the wings here, mate.
You can't drop your guard for a second.
Exactly, what are you gonna do
if someone you trusted, someone you thought was a mate,
starts chattin' up your girlfriend?
(laughs) Watch this.
That's right mate, it's all yours, happy motoring.
Your a mad bastard aren't you?
It's better than breaking both his legs.
You must've been keen on that girl.
Was keen.
Had I been really keen that bastard wouldn't be walking.
Come on, let's go we're being spotted, I think.
Oh, come on.
Oi.
Hey.
Get back here, you mongrel.
(man cheers)
(upbeat music)
(dramatic music)
Hey, you're up early, going somewhere?
I've got to make an early start.
Early start where?
I've gotta push on.
Right, so you're leaving.
I'm meeting Zack at the bus stop,
and we're heading up north.
Rose, you only just got here.
There's not enough work here for me, and Zack.
I talked it over with auntie Stevie, she agrees I should go.
Right, cool, okay.
But you know what, you haven't had breakfast yet.
So why don't you come back with me to the house?
I can make you some eggs.
I'm not hungry.
Are you sure?
It'll just take 20 minutes,
and then I can drive you to the bus stop myself.
I wanna walk, but thanks.
You can't leave yet because you haven't swum in the dam.
It's like a Drovers Run initiation thing.
She looks like she's picked up a bit.
Yeah, a bit.
Why don't yo head back in, see if Rose is up.
I guess I'm just putting it off.
I don't even recognize her, she shouts,
she slams doors, she looks at me like I'm the enemy.
Everyone fights with their mom.
Maybe Jodi had the right idea, let Zack stay,
let 'em spend too much time with each other.
Yeah we could work them into the ground.
They'll stop within a week,
then I'll sort things out with Rose.
Maybe have Michelle come and stay too.
Sounds like a good plan.
Guys, Rose has done a runner.
She's heading to meet Zack at the bus stop.
She said you knew something about it,
but I didn't believe her.
Where, where's she going?
I don't know, she said something about up north.
Jodi, I told you to sit on her if you had to.
What time does the bus go?
10 o'clock.
What time is it?
Must be nearly that now, you better go.
She's missed her.
(car engine revving)
(dramatic music)
Rose, you okay?
You can't just run off like that.
Zack wasn't on the bus.
He doesn't love me anymore.
Oh Rose.
He sent me a text, his dad promised him
a trail bike if he didn't go away with me.
He left me here because he wanted a dumb motorbike.
Honey, he doesn't deserve you.
He doesn't.
(dramatic music)
So do you think the magnets worked?
Hmm.
The magnets, do you think it's worked?
Depends what I can hear in the fourth stomach.
What are you listening for?
It's kind of a ping.
That's a good thing.
Means the magnet's pulled the metal.
If it's followed by a pong, then that's bad.
Ping then a pong.
Yeah, table tennis condition.
Don't tell me you've never heard of it.
Another joke, of course.
I'll be honest,
there's something about you that makes me nervous,
and it's not just your dumb, stupid jokes.
You mean my witty repartee.
I don't know it's not me 'cause, normally I get jokes.
Because sometimes I'll meet someone,
and they throw me off balance, and I know when that happens
cause I start to talk too much.
Oh, I hadn't noticed.
I don't believe in magnetic attraction,
I don't believe in animal magnetism.
I think that two people meet,
and they get to know each other,
and they find they have things in common.
And they share personal stories, and then, and then.
And then I have no idea why I'm telling you all of this.
Strange girl, even by Drovers standards.
You wanna hear something corny?
I don't care.
There'll be other boys.
A month from now, Zack will be just a speck on the horizon.
I wanted him to take me away.
Where?
Any place.
I'm a loser, I'm useless at school.
No, don't you say that.
You can do anything you wanna do.
You've been awesome.
(sentimental music)
I didn't know what to say to her.
Who would, poor kid.
That's just it, I was there, and I held her as tight,
and that was enough.
There's nothing like a good hug.
The timing's perfect, she thinks I'm awesome.
You're right mom, he's hopeless.
I know, I'm so sorry, it was so gutless of me.
I'm sorry, really.
I love you too, love you so much.
Yeah, yeah I can't wait.
Fantastic, yeah I will.
Yeah.
We arrive, and these blokes come barreling
out of the house, and caught the ute, hot pink.
You should've seen the looks on their faces, Nick.
It was classic.
It was funny at the time.
I guess you had to be there.
Kane's the sort of bloke that plays hard.
Oi.
Hey.
That horse of yours is gonna live.
Abscess.
Yup, better starve him a few days though.
Righto, I'll go and pen him.
So, what's on today, anymore trips planned?
Yeah, going to the bottom paddock, putting up post.
I was talking about that, that little business
you've got going on in the city.
Right, you mean my business?
Yeah, yeah, I was just a bit concerned that you,
you might be overdoin' it.
Jumping from this business to that business.
Don't wanna run yourself down.
Appreciate the thought Dave, really do.
The city business, it's all finished with.
Good aye, I'm relieved to here that.
Thanks for caring.
No worries, catch up.
The first thing I'm gonna do
is drop into the Bain, and see everybody.
Bain?
Oh, it's a cafe we all hang out at.
Me, Sofia, Haley, and Nico.
Who's Nico?
He's just a friend, don't worry.
I wasn't worried.
All right, Rose, wait a minute, I...
I wanted, I wanted to give you something.
I can have these?
But they're your favorites?
I've got about 20 boots anyway, and only two feet, right?
I'm never gonna take these off, thanks heaps.
(dramatic music)
I'd better go.
Rose, don't go.
Don't go talking to any strangers.
I love you, and I'll miss you.
I'll see you soon.
(dramatic music)
(bus engine revving)
(dramatic music)
(knocking on the door)
Yeah.
She get away okay?
Yeah, great.
You all right?
Yeah, I'm fine.
Why wouldn't I be?
I'm the world's greatest aunt. (Cries)
It's all right.
(dramatic music)
You all right?
We got some cattle to move.
Yeah, soon I'm just emailing mom.
Can it wait 'till tonight?
No way, I've already waited 10 years.
Does smithereens have a double e?
I don't know, I've never seen the word written down,
what's so important?
Mom had this porcelain statue of a ballerina,
and one day it turned up smashed.
To smithereens.
Yeah, except it was held together with sticky tape
and I said I didn't know anything about it.
So mom had a little cry, and then she put it away,
and never mentioned it again.
Let me guess, you killed the ballerina.
It was an accident.
So you were 11 years old,
your were living alone with your mom,
her statue gets smashed,
and reappears held together with sticky tape.
Yeah and a band-aid.
I'm guessing she knew it was you.
I never confessed, I never said anything,
so I thought I'd just write her a little note,
and say I'm sorry.
We put our mothers through such awful things.
We. Goody-two-shoes.
Jo, I might use the computer after you.
(upbeat music)
You sure you now what ya doin'?
Yeah, I got it under control.
Do you reckon I did the right thing?
Well I don't think you had much choice, in the end.
We did get her back on the rails I'll say.
Yeah, you did.
Oh! Oh, sorry.
Rose is a teenager,
there's gonna be plenty more crises where that came from.
Just tryin' to be reassuring, right?
Did you know that the Amazonian subsistence farmers
have been using this technique for thousands of years?
How much rainforest do they have left?
Oh, you're a cynic.
Come on, weeds, die.
