Please don’t seduce me.

It's just too tempting.

I can't stay here for two hours, imagining you're here.

You don't want to get married, do you?

There's a time and a place for self-destructive sex.

This is it.

Come on, why can’t you get on board?

Because I have feelings for you.

I think that's my towel.

Sorry., no,

it's not mine.

Oh. Oh, I’m pool women. Ah, the towel.

Yeah, I remember.

- Nina. -Nina. Thomas.

[jolly music]

[electronic beep]

[Thomas] Hi, Nina, I hope this is you?

It's Thomas, father of Rocco from the pool.

Really hope this is the right Nina.

If this is not you, please disregard.

But I hope it is you. If so, hello!

[exhales]

[record skip sound]

-[Patrick] Hey. -Hi!

You we're sleeping. I didn't wanna wake you.

I was in the park as the sun was coming up.

Everything was so quiet.

Oh, I'm all sweaty.

Can I please have a kiss?

[Nina moans]

Can we stay like this forever?

Hello?

-[Zara] Hi. -[Billie] Hi

Oh, been baking?

[Billie] Yeah

Couldn't sleep till, um, what's that for being "really wound up"?

Anyway, I channeled. Today's my big day.

Lawrence's auction.

-Ah. -I'm pulling out all the stops.

I want that cushion. And, try these.

See these Chocky-Rocks have--have just right mix of crunch and gouje.

This isn't your first time. Why is this one so important?

Because it's Lawrence's.

[Billie] Eat.

[munching]

-[Nina] Yum... Yummy. -[Billie] Ye--yeah?

[Geraldine] It's very nice.

[Zara] Hm. It's good.

Nice. Good. Not words with dollar signs on them.

Darling, these are very successful biscuits.

What's that?

Accounting.

[Billie] You're accounting is brown paper bags?

Yes. One for each taco stand and one for the tax office.

Oh, no, no, no, Jimmy. That's not how you do accounting.

-It's how I do it. -Mom, do you do

your business accounting using paper bags?

-I use software. -Exactly.

Mom does it. Dad did it. I did it.

And remind us what happened to Proudman Real Estate, Billie?

[inhales deeply]

[Billie] Yes. I--I made mistakes, with Proudman Real Estate.

Accounting mistakes. Look how bad that got.

But at least I took it seriously.

And I have a new business now.

Yeah. I'm--I'm sorry. I just, um...

I'm sorry. I'm gotta make some more phone calls.

I'm gonna go sell a house.

I'm taking this cushion.

[upbeat music]

Hello?

Lawrence?

-[knocks] -[door opens]

Oh!

-Oh, hey-- -Sorry, I--I knocked. I did knock.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. How are you? I'm sorry. Still waking up.

-What's going on? -You got to get out.

The--the place needs its finishing touches.

Oh.

But the auction's not for hours.

What--what are you doing sleeping in? You're not a sleeper-inner?

-Or are you? -Not normally. No.

I, ah, I sometimes have insomnia. I took a pill last night.

You gotta get up.

Okay, okay.

You're topless.

I'm naked.

Well--An--Ange is gonna be here any minutes, so go wash--

You better get in the shower.

Okay.

-I'll leave you alone. -Okay.

Is this some kind of game?

"Oh, Billie's comin' over,

it's gonna be a big day full of excitement and pressure,

I'm gonna tease her by being nude"?

I'm in my house. This is my bedroom.

I sleep in the nude.

I don't.

I prefer sleepwear. I have pajamas. Sometimes, I sleep in a t-shirt.

Are you keeping the conversation going in the hope

that I would get up and you'll see my penis and testicles?

Yes. But that's not very professional.

[Billie] For the record, I wouldn't say penis and testicles.

I would say "junk", or "tackle".

Or maybe even make a whistling sound like... [whistles]

You're still doing it.

Yes.

Yeah.

I'll go.

Good bye.

[door closes]

[computer beeps]

[Nina] It's just a friend request.

Friend as in, "man you've met a few times".

Nice man. Attractive man.

By the way, Julia May has decided against the epidural.

But I've got a feeling she's gonna change her mind.

Oh?

You know, just an inkling.

If you can get a chance, it might be a good idea to let them know this, ok

-If she does change her mind. -Yeah. Sure.

Thanks.

-You're thinking about him aren't you -Pardon?

[Martin] There's a...

a look you get in your eye.

-Oh. -[Martin] Oh, it's all right.

Can I ask, when you see him, is it a memory or...

Sometimes memories.

[Nina] Sometimes imagination.

Sometimes both.

[phone rings]

-Nina Proudman. -[Kim] You's two.

My office.

[phone clicks]

Sit, please.

We have a new midwife, starting here today.

Oh good. We have a new midwife starting.

Why are we having this meeting?

-Because, he'll be-- -He?

-Yes, he'll be-- -A man? [throaty chuckle]

He will be our only male midwife.

And I don't want his gender to be an issue.

It won't be.

Good.

[Kim] 'Cause it's not easy being a male midwife.

I conducted a rigorous interview process,

and this candidate was outstanding.

If you hired him, I'm sure he was. [chuckles]

Is that sarcasm?

No.

Good.

I don't wanna hear, "Can I work with someone else?"

[Kim] I don't wanna hear jokes, like--

Shouldn't we call him a "mid-husband"?

Martin.

Try that with one of my midwives I'll shove a discrimination suit

so far up your ass--

[Nina] Kim, I don't think there's anything to worry about.

Martin and I have the greatest respec for midwives.

-Don't we, Martin? -Uh-huh.

And to make sure we all set off on the right foot,

I think we should have a...

welcome, for him.

Some kind of food scenario.

We could go to lunch together.

Good.

You can go.

[chairs shuffle]

[chairs clang]

[footsteps]

[Nina] A new midwife. It's a big deal.

-You too, welcome to St. Francis -[Leo] I'm excited to be here.

[indistinct chatter]

No, that's not possible.

Our tongues just touched.

Shit.

This isn't happening.

No, that's wrong. This is happening.

It's okay. Just be cool. Be together. Be--

-[rushed footsteps] -[door opens]

-Hello. -What are you doing in here?

-Replenishing supplies. And you? -[door closes]

I came in here...

You know when you come in a room and you can't remember why you came in?

No, you ran in here like a scared rabbit.

I ran in here like a brave rabbit with a strong reason for being in her

I'm brave.

Bingo. They're in here!

Kim thinks you're forming a "Kneel of Powell" conspiracy?

-[Nina] We are not. -Well...

Come meet the new midwife.

Hop, hop.

[Nina] No way around it. Maybe he won't remember. It's possible.

And don't forget to smile.

He remembers. That's the moment of recognition..

Definitely recognition. Shock.

Horror. And a fake smile.

[Kim] Leo, this is Nina.

-Hello, I'm Nina. -[Kim] I just said that.

Hi, Nina. I'm Leo.

I've heard so much about you.

Really?

No, no. Only good things. How about you?

Did you just arrive here?

I mean, are from local, or inter-state?

Yes.

Yes, uh, yes, yes. I was in Adelaide Where I lived, and now I'm here.

Um, I came on an airplane.

[Nina] Oh, that's interesting.

Martin Clegg, Ph.D.

-This is Martin. -It's great to meet you.

-Hello. -Nina suggested

that we all go out for lunch together to welcome you.

Hm. Really?

Yup.

Yup. Absolutely.

I think it'd be lovely to all sit down together and eat,

get to know each other.

And I can't wait.

I made a booking.

Oh, I'm so--

Excuse me, I just need to--

-So? -[Martin] Soft bladder.

[running footsteps]

[zips]

-What are those? -Made them.

-Oh, yeah? -What for? Just cozing the place up.

-Really? -Yeah.

Well, they smell gorgeous. Look nice on a plate.

And then they're delicious.

Well, they do look okay. But people aren't gonna eat them.

Why not?

No one comes to a house for sale and eats the decor.

Well, if I offer them around.

No, don't hate me.

These cookies do no make the place cozy.

-Well, I could. -They are out of place.

They work against the styling. They a a touch of an after school fate.

Yes. Right.

Yup, cookies, bad idea.

Some coffee beans on a tray, roasting in the oven.

-Yes. Great. -Also...

I brought those additional scatter cushions. We don't need them.

We have styled this place well. Trust the work that we've done.

[cell phone rings]

-He's here. -Who?

The man by the airport. The big event at the airport.

The dire-worst-sex-in-history, one-night-stand-apocalypse?

-Yes. -[Billie] No.

He's here in the hospital. He's our new midwife.

-No. -Yes!

A male midwife?

Yes, a male midwife. Right here in this hospital.

Excuse me.

She's gonna have to call you back.

What was that?

-What is your problem with Leo? -Nothing.

You shook his hand as if he had rabies

-and now you're bitching about him. -I just talking to my sister.

Because he's a man.

-No. -You got a gender issue with him.

I do not. I'm very pleased that we have a male midwife.

Yeah, right. You sounded real pleased about it, just now on the phone.

I am. I can't wait to work with him.

Good. 'Cause you're gonna be working with him.

But what if for whatever reason he decides

that St. Francis isn't for him?

-If you're questioning my judgment... -I'm not.

-Hi. -Hello.

Nina's got a problem with our new midwife.

Oh, he's why I'm here. I came for a look-see. What is your problem?

I do not have a problem with him.

[Zara] That is a lie. What is it?

[Kim] Zara, as a pregnant woman about to give birth,

do you have a problem with a male midwife?

Anyone who's willing to help get this baby out is welcome.

-Oh. -[Kim] See?

Once and for all, I do not have a gender issue with Leo

Is he hot?

No. Oh, God, no.

Oh. Mean.

So he's not hot?

[laughing]

[Zara] What's wrong with you?

Nothing.

I find him attractive.

Good for you.

Do you find him repulsive?

No, I don't find him repulsive.

I just don't know why we have to brea the hotness of all the midwives.

What are you three talking about?

[Kim] Whether Leo is hot.

Inappropriate conversation.

[door slams shut]

How long before the smell starts coming?

Just a few minutes.

[Billie] Oh. Hi.

-Hi. -You're here for the auction?

-Yeah. -We just started, actually.

-So who are you? -Billie Proudman.

You're not the real estate agent?

Uh, no, I'm the styling consultant.

But the agent should be here any minute.

Then you'll be free to inspect the property.

Sorry. You--you can't just do that.

It's all right. No, I'll put it back when I'm done.

-It's okay. -No, you can't just help yourself.

Uh, uh, Billie.

Um, sorry this is-- This is Alex.

-Alex? -This place is half mine.

Alex! Sorry.

You can have water.

Thank you.

Did you get my email?

Yes. Can we...?

All of this... you did it?

Yes. We're hoping to get you a really great price.

-That's her. The ex. -What is she doing here?

It's obvious what she's doing here. But why I wasn't ready?

It's possible I was too busy

baking muffins to mentally prepare.

[foot thumps]

[gulps]

[thuds]

[Alex] It's all so, "placed." It looks artificial.

[Lawrence] Billie, she knows what she's doing.

[Alex] I hope it's worth it.

[door opens]

Uh, if there's any element of the sty that you like to discuss.

Billie, it's okay.

What's that smell?

Coffee. It's in the oven.

I thought it was meant to be vanilla.

Couple of drops of vanilla essence on a tray.

The smell of coffee's is warm and embracing.

[Alex] Well, I'd rather come home to the smell of vanilla.

-But you're meant to be the expert. -Alex.

Vanilla is a masking agent. It's used to cover up odors in the home.

So if we use vanilla, buyers would think that the place is musty.

So using coffee is the smarter thing to do.

Fine. Clearly we have different taste.

-Alex, please. -No, I agree with you.

The styling isn't to my taste either.

But the styling isn't for living in, it's part for the sales process.

And your right it is artificial but I think its gonna get you great sell pr

[sighs]

[quirky music]

-[body thuds] -Oh, jeez.

Sorry. Sorry. You okay?

What are you doing here?

-What are you doing here? -I work here.

Right. Well, so do I.

Are you following me?

How could I be following you, I'd--You said you were florist.

Are you a florist?

That was a lie. I was lying.

Right, so that--that explains why I k basically nothing about flowers.

You said, you monitored space junk.

Yes, I was trying to sound exciting.

Seemed to know a lot about it.

I--I like space.

[door creaks open]

-Yo. -Hello.

-Yo. -Hi.

Am I interrupting something?

-No. -No.

You're wearing lip gloss.

No, why?

Ve--very jazzy today.

-Hm. -Are you guys coming for lunch?

-Yep. -Yep.

[door creaks open]

[thud]

Can I suggest, that while your peruse the apartment... Hi.

that you imagine that its, uh, Sunday morning,

that you're reading the newspaper over a coffee.

Actually, do-- do you like coffee?

-Uh... -Yes.

-Great. -Yeah.

And would you say you more, um, Danish design kind of people

or rustic old world--

-Could I have you for a moment? -Sorry.

-What are you doing? -Nothing, I'm just--

The real state agent is not loving you, right now.

Um, I'm keying people into the conceptual story of the property.

I'm setting off "uniformiter".

And if the sale bombs after I put everything on the line

by depending on my scatter cushions, and coffee beans--

Billie, do you think you've invested too much in this?

I have to smash the sale, Ange, I mean smash the sale.

No.

-No way. -What?

-Jimmy. WTF? -Hm.

I'm just here for a perf. No dramas.

Oh, coffee. Some might call it a cliché,

I say a classic.

Do you really think its a cliché or is it just your revenge

for me teasing you to pay your accounting.

No, I'm just window shopping places to live, don't stress.

-Do you want to laugh it out? [laughs -Please go, Jimmy.

Calm down, I'm gonna stand at the back and be really quiet.

[indistinct chattering]

[tranquil music]

[Nina] Agony. Break the ice. Say something.

Anything.

So...

You two know each other.

-What? -Us?

It just seems, that you two may have met each other before.

Oh.

[laughs]

[Nina] Laugh, just laugh. Keep laughing.

'Cause the second you stop, someone's gonna want an answer.

[laughing continues]

Sorry, I don't know what that was.

So, do you two know each other?

-We-- -I...

-thought. -Yes, I thought we had met before.

And you, Elvis, when you walked through the door

that's--that's what I was asking Leo here, "Have we met before?"

Leo, do you think we've met before?

-Um... -Cause I--I

kind of think, your look kind of, sort of, familiar.

Don't you?

You know what, it's probably some strange doppelganger thing?

Yes, I once knew someone who looked like someone I met once.

-Um. -Funny. The eyes.

-Yeah, and you with your hair. -It's funny.

-Yeah. -[squeaking]

Oh, for God sake.

I can see what's going on here.

Nina, Martin and Elvis,

you are obstetricians. Zara, Leo and I, are midwifes.

Some male, some female.

A midwife is a midwife no matter what gender.

If you'd prefer that I started with the postnatal to begin with--

Your gender is not an issue.

No, no, no, but if there's some expected malice

who'd rather not, have a man from midwife.

No, you're a great midwife man.

[chuckles]

You're not the one that's in trouble here.

It's them.

I'm sorry if I'm a bit awkward I suppose I'm shy,

coming to a new environment.

[Leo] Um...

I'll just powder my nose.

[Martin] She has a weaker bladder.

-[gasps] -[door clicks close]

[taps]

[Nina] This is pathetic.

-Hi. -Hi.

Hi.

I'm on to you.

-Huh? -Yeah, you, Leo. Admit it.

-Hm. -You've got the hots for him, it's ok

No.

-Huh. -I'll let you off the hook,

for now. But I'm on to you, Nina.

-[scoffs] -I'm on to you.

[door clanks close]

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, and apologies for the late start.

My name is George Kobas, and I'll be your auctioneer.

[George] So who wants to buy it.

Why don't we start to call out our mind.

650.

[George] Six-fifty, sir. Welcome to the bidding at 650,000.

650 the bid. Looking for 60.

It is illegal though.

At 680.

Six-eighty now. At ¤680,000.

Billie, it's okay. Jimmy didn't get i He stopped bidding.

But the place went for ¤703,000.

Smashed it.

[sobs]

[tranquil music]

Leo was telling me how much you scared him during his interview here.

Yeah, bull shit.

I really thought I'd shot myself in the foot.

No, I was delighted by you.

I just had my business face on that day.

You had broken up with Renee the night before.

It says here you're knew to midwifery.

Um, hm, yes. I used to be a paramedic.

Unfortunately, as a paramedic, uh, you know,

you deal with a lot of, uh, overdosing junkies.

So, um, and the favorite part of my j was always helping to birth babies.

So, yeah. I decide--I'm sorry. I can' help but notice that you're weeping.

I am... not.

-Hm. -Oh, yes. Of course, that was the day

Huh?

A big day for both of you.

I'm gonna take this up.

Oh, Zara, hasn't paid yet.

Where's his Zaz?

In the toilet.

What, she fall in?

[Martin] I fell into a toilet once.

-Hey, you're bidding. -[Jimmy] Yeah.

-On apartment. -I didn't get it.

Hey, wait, you were bidding. That's against the law to make false bids.

What makes you think they were false bids?

Oh, yeah. 'Cause you're pre-approved for a loan

How much was that last bid?

¤700,000.

No way.

-[cell phone rings] -How much money have you got?

Excuse me.

Our sister's calling.

Hello.

Jimmy, Zara's gone into labor.

What?

Her waters have broken.

-Zara is having a baby. -Oh.

-Billie, you gotta have-- Bill-- -I'm driving. I'm driving.

This isn't supposed to be happening.

Well--we're anyway, you've dilated fast.

-Yeah, but I'm booked in for a cesare -[Leo] Here, there you go.

You can have a cesarean if you'd like But the--the scar line's strong.

Is the baby in natal position?

Yes.

What do you wanna do, Zara?

You could do a trial labor we'll monitor you.

Yeah, I think-- I think I'll feel better when Jimmy gets here.

Zara...

whichever way you decide to give birth,

it's not gonna be the same as it was with Alfie.

Hey, baby's heart rate is great. You're gonna be great, okay?

And if you start to feel like anything's wrong,

even if it's just intuition, you let me know straight away.

Okay. I think I need to stand.

-Okay. -Yep.

Yeah. And I think I need my phone.

-[engine revs] -[cell phone rings]

Hello.

Hi, I wanna marry you today. Right now.

Are you on drugs?

No, I'm feeling a very strong urge to run away from the hospital.

But I think that's just transitioning.

[Kim] It is.

But you're in labor.

[Zara] Yes, and that's clarified a few things for me.

No fanfare, no bullshit.

Just us, pledging our love for each other in front of our tribe,

and, you know, you've already got the rings.

You don't have to do this. You said you didn't want to.

Yeah. I did say that. But I said it, and--

And it made you sad when I said no.

And--and I just said I really wanna make you happy.

You don't have to marry me to make me happy.

[Zara] I know but, uh, I just-- Well, I--

I wanna be your wife. I--I really wanna be your wife.

Please come and marry me. Please.

Okay. We need to go to moms.

I'll see you in a minute. Okay?

What was happening?

I need a celebrant.

[Zara screaming]

[Nadine] Welcome everybody.

My name is Nadine Samir, and I'm duly authorized by law

[Zara groaning]

Before you're joined in marriage in the presence of these witnesses...

-Any way of speeding this up? -Yeah.

Oh.

Um, I'm--I'm just really sorry.

In the airport. I just hope y--you don't feel like...

I was taking advantage of you.

No, no. I'm--

It's not your fault, I--I agreed and I bailed on you.

Anyway.

Just as far as everyone else is concerned...

We're total strangers, and it never happened?

-Yeah. Great. -I think so.

Great.

Um, one thing.

Was that your sister out there who was staring at me?

-Yes. -Right.

So I take it--

-Well, she knows everything. -Okay.

-No one else does. -Okay.

Good.

[baby whimpering]

-Hi. -Hey.

[Jimmy] Uh, Nins.

Um, there--there-- there's something, um...

We have a favor to ask. It's not really a favor.

Okay.

[Jimmy] It's--it's not a favor. It's--it's more, um.

-Do you want me to... -And, um...

[baby mewling]

It really is okay to say no.

But with your blessing, we'd like to name the baby... Patrick

[sobs]

I'm so sorry.

Sorry, sorry, we just thought-- It is wrong, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

No, I love it.

-I love it. -Yeah? [tearful]

[Nina chuckling]

-[sniffs] -[Jimmy] Aw...

[exhales]

[tranquil music]

[inhales]

Thought I might find you here.

Oh, mom.

When I'm the happiest is...

when I miss him the most.

[Nina sighs]

I don't know how to live.

I--I don't know how to hold on to him.

I--

I don't know how to live without him. [stutters]

Oh, sweetheart.

Just--it hurts so much.

But, the hurt's precious to me,

I don't want to stop hurting.

[Geraldine] I know.

It's your grief, my darling.

And fuck anyone who tries to tell you how to do it.

But knowing Patrick,

and the kind of man he was,

I don't think he'd have wanted you to say no to being happy.

[mellow music]

[Phillip] Hello. Hello, little Paddy.

[Jimmy] Paddy.

Oh, that could catch on.

Paddy Perkich Proudman.

[all chuckling]

[cell phone rings]

Hello?

Where did you go?

Oh, um, to the hospital. For a birth.

-Oh, is it a bad time? -[Billie] No, no. It's good timing.

Uh, so, um, what happens now?

-What do you mean? -[Lawrence] I've got this stuff of yo

Oh, right, yes.

And a bottle of champagne. It's not going to drink itself.

I'll be over.

-Right. -[Zara] He's so pink.

-Hi. -[Lawrence] Hi.

You didn't have to knock, you have the key.

Oh, uh, it's not really appropriate for me to...

just let myself in anymore,

now that our professional relationship is over.

-[Billie] Are you wearing cologne? -I had a shower.

It's nice.

Thank you.

Why did you have another shower?

I did a workout.

Any--anyway, I just came to collect my cushions.

-[Lawrence] Yeah, yeah. -Oh, oh.

-Yeah. -Um,

The guys um, will be around tomorrow

to collect the rest of the--

-the rental furniture. -Okay.

Um, and here's your key.

Stay.

I--I don't think I want champagne.

I mean, stay.

Like you said the professional bit's over.

What happen to "let's not throw ourselves into sex"?

It wasn't right then.

Then it is now?

I wanna kiss you.

Yeah?

Yeah.

During the auction with your ex here and all the pressure,

I realize that I'd set my whole future

in getting a great price for your house.

Like I've done this deal in my head that if I could smash the sale

and that would be a proof that I was a good person.

-But you're a good-- -Let me--Let me finish.

And then my brother started bidding and I realized that,

I couldn't control anything.

I felt something I haven't felt in a long time.

Calm.

And for a second, I forgot to hate myself.

That was really nice.

And now?

Now, I'm aglow because,

we smashed the sale. And held my nephew and

I saw my brother get married and

and I can feel my heart beating.

And, yeah, I wanna...

grab your face and feel your stubble on your jaw

and kiss you.

Just kiss you.

But I've been here before,

this is what I do.

Impulsive sex. Because of an inability

to see the potential consequences.

Not this time.

No.

Not tonight.

Tonight,

I'm gonna grab my scatter cushions,

[keys chinking]

and leave with dignity.

["Coming Home" by Amos the Transparent playing]

[Lawrence] Billie,

can I call you?

Yeah, you can call me.

[Patrick] Hello.

Hi.

What are you doing?

Waiting for you.

When I was pregnant,

sometimes I sat on the stairs and watched you read in the lounge.

This house was never noisy.

Why does it feel so quiet without you

I can't let you go.

It's not what you're doing.

But I have to keep living.

Somehow,

and I don't know how. [whimpers]

But I have to try. [sobs]

Don't I?

Yes.

Thank you for being my lover.

Thank you for living.

Thank you for giving me our beautiful daughter.

[sobbing]

I'll love you forever.

I'll never stop loving you.

[smooch]

[somber music]

[breathes heavily]

[whimpers]

[Nina] Goodbye.
