- Morning.

- Is it?

Or am I having a really strange dream?

- You never tried Tai Chi?

- You've never tried weed before.

- Well, one is good for you

and relaxes the body and the mind.

- Yeah, and the other one has you doing that.

(snorts)

- Come on, it's easy.

Come on.

- I haven't even had coffee yet.

- You won't need one, I promise.

Come on.

(hands clap)

(Heidi laughs)

- I'm not doing that.

I'm not doing that.

I'm not doing that.

- Okay. Okay.

You don't mind if I keep going, do you?

- No, it's fine.

It's better than Wayne's morning routine.

- Yeah. I can imagine.

Hey.

You can stay here as long as you need.

- Sure.

- I mean it.

(kiss)

- Thanks.

- You're welcome.

Go on.

- Steady on.

- [Mila] Saffron.

- Thought you were already gone.

- New team leader.

Changed everyone's shift at the last minute.

- Don't you hate that?

- Pancakes okay?

- Really?

- It's either that or I throw out the bananas.

- Thanks.

Do we still have any chocolate sauce?

- Might need to do another shop.

- It's fine without.

- I suppose you'll want some as well.

- Sure. Thanks, Mila.

I'm actually, I'm gonna do a shower.

- They'll be ready in 10.

- Everything okay?

- Mm-hmm.

- Well, I better start getting ready too.

- Heidi's staying over tonight as well, I take it?

- Yeah, why?

- You should start charging her rent.

- You said it was fine.

- I know.

Maybe I should call her stepdad.

- There's no need.

It'll just be a few days till he calms down.

- Are you sure? I don't mind-

- Mum.

- Sorry.

Pancakes.

(soft music)

(grass rustles)

- It's probably just a bird or something.

- Do you know that for a fact?

People hang out in these woods, you know?

- Maybe it was a yowie.

- If only they were real.

- Brayden seems to think so.

He will literally believe anything you tell him.

- Yeah.

- Don't worry about him.

- How can I not?

He's still your boyfriend.

- He's my soon to be ex.

- And I'm supposed to be his friend.

- He will forgive you.

- I wouldn't.

- Okay.

Things didn't work out between me and Brayden.

So, now I'm allowed to go out and see other people.

- Okay, but that's not really how it happened, is it?

- Yes.

- Are you going to mention the overlap?

- Are you?

Look, I promise it will be fine, okay?

I'll sit him down.

I'll look him in the eye and I'll spell it out for him.

- Okay, but please just be tactful about it, though.

Seriously.

- When am I not?

(Ingrid scoffs)

Hmm?

- Did I miss the alarm?

- I've got stuff to do.

- Oh, right.

Yeah, you gotta catch those early morning commuters.

- Thanks for letting me crash.

- You want something to eat first?

- Tempting, but I've gotta-

- Right, you've gotta-

- Yeah.

- I do have cereal.

- Cereal?

Careful, might get the wrong idea.

- Better than nothing.

- Grains. Yuck.

- Since when are you on a health kick?

- What? Alcohol doesn't count.

What? Mediterranean blood,

a drink a day helps you live to like a hundred.

- That's wine, that's not shots.

- Anyway.

Good luck with the uni thing.

Now, seriously, I've gotta get going.

- Okay, later.

- Hey.

- Hey.

Do you have anything to eat?

- Just some Muesli bars,

but last time I gave you one of those

you said it tasted like sawdust and rat poop.

- Did I?

- Listen, Bray.

- Hey, I heard something was like pretty cooked.

- Yeah?

- It's probably a load of bull.

- What was it?

- Ah, it doesn't really matter, does it?

- No, I mean, if you have something to say,

you should tell me.

- Oh, why don't you respond to my texts?

- Bray, I meant to.

- I was pretty busy anyway, so it doesn't matter.

- How was your mum's?

- How's any freaking country town?

Jack all to do.

- So, amuse yourself?

- Why didn't I think of that?

- Have I done something to you?

- I don't know, you tell me.

- Look Bray, if you're gonna just do this-

- Look, I'm sorry.

You know, I just could have used someone to talk to is all.

- You know you can always talk to me.

Whatever happens.

- You know how I thought, you know,

my mom wanted to spend more time with me and all that?

Turns out that's a load of crap.

I heard her and Julie going at it on the phone.

- Wait, what?

What do you mean?

You know like when parents split up,

they normally fight over who gets to have the kid?

- Yeah, well, mine figured it out.

- Yeah, well, mine are fighting

about who doesn't have to have me.

Everyone just can't wait to get rid of me.

- Wow, that sucks.

- I should do that thing you said, you know.

Emissapate myself.

- You mean emancipate?

- Screw 'em.

I don't need them.

Just need a place to lay my head before school's done.

- Yeah, well, I mean, like, if that's what you wanna do,

divorce your parents.

- Big time.

Screw 'em, I don't need them.

I got you.

- What?

- Nothing.

- Is it safe to talk to you

or will I get my head kicked him again?

- Heidi's sorry.

- Oh, she really seems it.

- Can we not?

- Mr. Whiteley wants to talk to me before class.

- Why are you telling me?

- Oh, what?

So you don't care now?

- Obviously I do.

Heidi could get expelled.

- Oh, so what?

- I'm not gonna beg.

- I don't want you to.

- Might as well have.

- Every time we talk about it,

you turn it into this huge thing.

- I think that's more other way around.

- Hey, look, I get it, okay?

- And you still won't do the right thing.

- Quiet morning.

- Yeah, it's always quiet lately.

- Maybe you're in the wrong spot.

- You're right about that.

- What are you doing here anyway?

- Oh, just had to stretch my legs.

- It's a pretty long walk.

- I had to work off some frustration.

- What, why?

You didn't get it.

- Sorry, but after a highly competitive round

of applicants-

- You know, the right thing will turn up eventually.

- Yeah, it better.

I don't know

how much longer I can keep doing the waitress thing for.

- Least there's free food.

- Yeah, sure, but that food is either stale

or it is gross or both.

- Well it's better than trying to play guitar for a living.

- Speaking of, what are you doing next weekend?

- Why?

- Well, Coldstream Music Festival is on.

I thought maybe we could check it out.

- I mean, I'd love to, but-

- No, you know what?

It's okay.

You don't have to.

- I'm out of town.

- No, that's all right.

- You don't have to explain.

It is literally so fine.

- No, look.

- Do you know what?

Are you hungry?

'Cause I have this like really weird craving

for noodles, but like the mi goreng kind,

but you gotta keep them like, boiling

for a really long time.

So, that'll take ages.

At least 10 minutes.

So, we should really-

- Did you talk to Celeste?

- No, it was just a full-on mackin' sesh.

Why?

- Brayden.

- Yeah, we talked, so?

- Are you okay?

- Well, I mean, you know,

it's just another person ditching me in my life.

- Are you mad?

- She's my mum.

Of course.

- What?

- Trying to stop me coming over on the holidays again.

Just 'cause I may or may not have lit the oven on fire.

- Okay, right.

But did Celeste say anything?

- No.

- Nothing at all?

- Should she have?

You're starting to freak me out.

- I don't know.

- No, come on.

You can't say that and then not finish.

Come on, tell me.

- Stop.

- Spill, come on.

- Stop.

She just said she wanted to talk to you.

- Oh, that normally means I'm in trouble.

Maybe I text her too much.

- I doubt it's that.

- No, seriously, the whole holiday.

No response, no nudes.

Nada.

- Maybe she just wanted to see you in person.

- Do you blame her?

- Who do you think you're talking to?

- I'm your best mate.

I can tell you anything.

- I'd prefer if you didn't.

- Maybe that's what she's doing.

You know, the whole "treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen" thing.

That's why she invited me over tonight.

- I doubt it.

- You know? A booty call.

- Definitely not.

- Ingrid, Ingrid, Ingrid.

You see, when two people love each other-

- Whoa, stop.

You don't love her.

- Says who?

- Be serious.

- I am.

See, I'm not afraid.

You should try it sometime.

- Didn't know you'd be here.

Hey, you know you don't need

to run away every time you see me.

- Okay.

- Don't you wanna know what I told the school about Heidi?

- Not really.

- Well, I guess you'll find out anyway.

- Do you enjoy this?

- Saff, I told them it was all a mistake.

Okay? An accident.

- Didn't you tell 'em that Heidi-

How can you just change your story now?

- One of the perks of having a concussion.

- Do you expect me to thank you?

- No, I don't expect anything.

Any kind of conversation is too much to ask.

- Well, I think it's probably best if we just-

- That was your shtick right from the start.

You know, you're actually worse than some

of the guys you used to go out with.

You get what you want, and then you-

- Okay.

- Saff.

- Thanks for the feed.

I better get going.

- Don't you wanna like, ride out the food coma with me?

- Wouldn't wanna cramp your style.

- You're not.

- Well, what happened to better call Lydia?

When is she coming over?

- Mm, yeah, that did not work out.

- Explains all the free time.

- Mm, no, that's not it.

I just really like hanging out with you.

- She dump you?

- Do you actually wanna know?

- No, it's none of my business.

- All right, she was really into drugs

and that wasn't my style, so.

- Mm-hmm, and so you wanna go to a music festival.

- For the music!

And to spend more time with you.

- What happened to the whole casual thing?

- I don't know.

- You know, 'cause at the start you were crystal clear

about not wanting anything serious and no strings.

- Am I not allowed to change my mind?

- No, you're not.

Okay?

- Sorry, I didn't mean for it to be like a huge deal.

You're probably not even gonna be here anyway, right?

Like, it doesn't matter.

- Yeah.

- You're probably gigging, right?

- I'm actually going to Byron.

- Oh, cool.

What are you not telling me?

'Cause like, I'm not jealous.

You can go on a holiday.

That's fine.

- It's a bit more permanent than that.

So, I've got a job up there, so I'm leaving.

- Hey, why didn't you come find me?

- I was hungry.

- Take it your chat with Mr. Whiteley went well, then?

- I'm still here aren't I?

- And you seem thrilled.

- It's school.

What is there to be thrilled about?

- What did he say?

- Usual.

- Which is?

- Boring.

- Ruby said that she told him it was an accident.

- If you already know everything that happened,

then why were you even talking?

Why do you talk to her anyway?

- I don't.

- Okay.

- You gonna tell Wayne?

- What's the point?

- I don't know, maybe it'll change his mind.

- Doubt it.

- It's worth a shot though, surely.

Look, just go over there.

It's not gonna take long.

And you said you need the rest of your stuff anyway, right?

- I don't really have any more clothes.

- I did say you could borrow mine.

- Oh, thank you.

Like, really.

I'm just, I'm not actually that desperate.

- Mm, thank you.

Thank you.

- 'Cause you are just the peak of fashion yourself.

- I really appreciate it though.

- Like, if I ever do feel the need to wear corduroy,

I know exactly who to go to.

- Oh.

I would never say that about your clothes.

- That's 'cause I dress well.

- What?

You can sleep on the couch.

- Hey, Zoe.

I like your hair.

- Thanks.

- Yeah, maybe I should do something different with mine.

- Maybe.

What do you reckon?

- Does it make me look hot?

- Why don't you look in a mirror?

- Have I done something?

- Uh, Saffron?

- Wait, are you actually mad with me?

- How'd you figure that?

- Would you have been okay if I told you?

- Who are you?

- I bet they weren't what you were expecting, huh?

- They sound great.

- I knew you'd like them.

- Yeah.

- Well, they're actually on tour at the moment,

and they're playing a gig in Melbourne in a couple weeks.

So...

- So?

- So, we should go.

- Together?

- That's generally the idea of a date.

Yeah.

- Do you think that's a good idea?

- If we want to be dating, yeah.

- Look, I don't wanna do any sneaking around.

- We're not sneaking around.

- That's literally exactly what we're doing.

- Okay, technically, yes.

But I'll break the news to him tonight,

and then I'll be single and we can do whatever we want.

- If we have to do it in secret,

maybe we shouldn't be doing it at all.

- What?

- Something my mum used to say.

- Maybe you should tell her too.

'Cause I think you should.

- Yeah, only if you never wanna see me again.

- Same sex couples have had to keep things

on the DL for like, ever.

Okay?

That needs to change.

- Yeah, I know.

- And Bray will forgive you.

- No, he won't!

- Eventually.

- No, because he's not gonna find out.

- Well, not yet.

- Not ever.

I'm serious, you need to break up with him

and make him think that it's about him.

- It is because of him.

- Nothing to do with me.

- Okay, whatever you want.

- Hey, why didn't you call me straight away?

- It wasn't a big deal.

- He kicked you out, Heidi.

He's being a jerk.

- Okay, it wasn't like that.

- Then...

- I don't know, threw an idea by him.

He didn't go for it.

- He's not worried where you'd gone?

- Well, I said that I'd be staying with a friend.

- Like, permanently?

- Would you have rather that he called social services?

- Would that really be the worst thing?

I don't know.

Sorry.

- Yeah, Saffron.

They can send you anywhere.

Any house, live with any sort of people,

could be miles away.

So yeah, I think that would probably suck.

- Yeah, no, you're right.

- It's fine 'cause I have you, so it's okay, right?

Stop stressing.

It's not gonna be forever.

It'll be just like a sleepover.

Keeps going a little bit longer.

- Thanks for coming.

- This couldn't have waited until we got to yours?

Oh, sorry.

I'm a bit of a ponger.

- Was it a good game?

- My head's just not in it.

Could just about go with a shower though.

- Yeah, well-

- Look, listen, what were we talking

about before about you know, my parents?

Could you just forget I said anything?

- Yeah, sure.

- Yeah, screw it.

You know, like, when I finish school I'll be like,

"See you later."

- And where are you going to go?

- Bali, Thailand maybe.

I heard that's pretty hardcore.

- After your next holiday.

- I'll probs move in with you.

- No, that's not gonna happen.

- I thought you said your mum was like all zen.

- Yeah, but that's not the reason.

- Hey, look what I got you.

- What's that?

- I got it in an op shop up in Shep.

- But I've already got one.

- It's for me.

- What about your gold chain?

- Sold it.

- Why?

- So we can both wear one.

- You'll be getting us matching pajamas next.

- No, lacy doesn't really suit me.

- I don't know what to say.

- Look, I just know you were kind of bummed

that Ingrid picked it out.

You know?

I'm sorry for that.

- Don't be sorry.

- I just don't know what to do if I lost you.

(phone vibrates)

Who's that?

- It's Ingrid.

- What's she want?

She's always screwing this up.

- I have to go.

Sorry.

- Back to yours, right?

- No, that's why I wanted to you to meet you,

to tell you that I couldn't see you after.

- Couldn't have just texted?

- Sorry.

(sniffs)

- Heidi's just nipped to the toilet.

- Good for her.

I'm exercising.

- She won't see it that way.

Should I care?

- I don't want another-

- Fight?

Yeah, well I wasn't expecting it last time.

- Is any of this going in?

You need to give me space.

- More like Heidi needs to give me space.

- Okay, sure.

- I come here every night, okay.

To keep fit.

- I believe you.

- It's a public park.

- Super close to my house.

- It's a small town.

God, get over yourself.

When are you gonna stop with all these wild accusations?

- She'll be back any minute.

- Geez, I've got the message.

- I wanna punch her.

Like, I actually wanna punch her.

- Yeah, didn't you try that one already?

- What else am I supposed to do?

- I don't think she thinks she's done anything wrong.

- That's nuts.

Like, that is actually nuts.

Yeah, but I think in her brain she thinks that we, you know,

and then I just went quiet on her.

- Yeah, so?

People do that.

- Yeah, well, it's different when it's your first girl,

isn't it?

But maybe if I'd just spoken to her straight away,

she wouldn't have gotten all...

- Obsessed?

- Yeah.

- Wow.

I guess I can't blame her for that.

I just, I don't know.

I meant like you're worth it.

- My mum's home.

- Well, you told her I'm staying, right?

- Sort of?

- Really?

Saff, again.

- Sorry, she got really weird the last time.

- Yeah, well, what am I supposed to do?

- I'll talk to her and explain.

It'll be fine.

- Hmm.

And when are you gonna tell her that we're together?

- In many years when I have moved out.

- She's gonna find out.

- No, she won't.

She trusts me.

It'll be fine.

- Well, can you please hurry up because I can't stay

at Astrid's again tonight and it's getting late.

- Okay, why don't you go to the servo

and get us some snacks and I will talk to her.

- Only 'cause I never say no to free money.

- It'll be fine.

- Get it sorted.

- Promise!

(Saff sighs)

- You okay?

You've gone all...

- No, yeah, no, I'm awesome.

I'm like super stoked for you.

Seriously.

- You seem it.

- No, really.

Like, a recording studio?

In Byron?

That is perfect for you.

- Yeah, well, I'll mainly be on reception.

I'll probably hate it.

- Nah, before you know it you are gonna be in the studio,

like, mixing and mastering.

- Yeah, keep going.

- And, what do you call it, producing?

- Yeah, they said I could sit in on any session I wanted

which is really cool.

- Cool, cool, cool.

- Yeah. Are you?

- It's just kind of weird you didn't tell me.

- Look, I didn't find out until this morning.

I had a call with them first thing.

- Hence the sneaking out.

- Yeah, yeah.

Well, that and your snoring, obviously.

- Obviously.

- So?

- I could not be happier for you.

- Oh, thank God.

- Again?

- She's not been over that much.

- For a few weeks there, it was virtually every night.

- Do you not want me to have friends?

- Well, what happened to Tabby?

- She's holding a grudge.

Pretty toxic.

- That doesn't sound like her.

- Believe me.

- Well, what did you do?

- Nothing Tabby hasn't done herself.

- Look, I don't mind you having people over,

but do they really need to stay?

- It's just a few nights.

Her stepdad's been really lousy with her.

- Where's her mom in all of this?

Should I give them a call?

- No, they're really private.

It'll just make everything worse.

- I'm not sure I understand why you're so invested.

- 'Cause she's my friend.

- Is that all it is?

- Mm-hmm.

Just wanna be able to help out.

- Well, this time you're responsible

for cleaning up the kitchen.

- Yeah, of course.

- I trust you.

- Thanks, Mum.

- Please tell me you didn't do it.

- Not after I saw your text.

- Why? What's the deal?

- I don't know.

I just started overthinking about how he'd react, and-

- Well, I didn't get the chance to tell him, so...

- Why?

- Because he got me another freaking necklace, didn't he?

- What?

- Don't worry about it.

He was just trying to be sweet.

- Do you think he picked up on something?

I just wish there was a way we could do this

that didn't absolutely crush him.

- Well, you don't have to have the conversation with him.

- Yeah, I know.

- Do you?

Because he's gone like full puppy dog on me.

I feel like a monster.

- Yeah, how do you think that makes me feel?

- I thought he was gonna bust out the L word.

- Oh, my God, Celeste.

He kind of already did.

- Well, that makes me feel a million times better.

- Ask him for relationship advice.

- I'll call him.

- Now?

- I'm so sick of feeling like I've done something wrong.

- Like, I know I could have handled this better,

but the longer this goes on, the worse it's gonna be.

- [Brayden] Hey, was just thinking about you.

- Bray, listen. Like-

Don't-

What are you doing?

- You can't.

- All right, I won't.

I'll do it tomorrow.

- No, no.

I don't wanna do this.

This.

- Ingrid.
