I will call Christof
and set the record straight.

I have to make a choice between
you and Alex for partnership,

this isn't good for you.

You embezzled 200,000 grand.
You'll never practice again.

Only if it gets out.

Olivia sweetheart, you're bleeding.

How many more test have we got?

(MOANS)

We have to stop.

You say that
but I'm not sure you mean it.

Oh, I mean it.

If you come near my house again,
I will kill you.

It's done.

I ended it,
I told him to leave us alone.

When are you going to tell Olivia?

She's got too much going on
with Alex, I can't.

I just don't understand how
in that worst moment in our lives

the thing you needed most was sex
with someone you barely knew.

I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.

What more do you want from me?

I haven't decided yet.

Jakob Novak.

Olivia.

You're going on your sexy date-ship
with your hunk of a mystery,

did you tell him, "Hella yes"?

You're totally ready to spend time
with a man that isn't Alex?

Overdue I'd argue.

I never told him about you at all.

Then how does he know so much
about our life.

I don't know.

I need his real name,
I need photos.

His name is Jakob.

What's his last name?

Jakob Novak, why?

You spent the day with Jakob?

We didn't just spend the day,
we slept together.

(AUDIO PLAYING)
Melanie, what's wrong?

Saskia, what is it?
What's wrong?

Jakob won't get away with it.

You should've told me.
I know. I'm sorry.

Doesn't matter how many times
I go over it,

I don't understand why you didn't.

We thought we could handle it.

You were going through so much
with Alex.

So, I need to be wrapped
in cotton wool.

That is leukaemia crap
from years ago.

Hey, angry woman.
We are not the villains here.

I just didn't want you to think
that I was a terrible person.

You thought I'd judge you?

We've only known each other,
for what, 28 years?

I would never judge you.
You are right now.

Drive safe.

Olivia, Olivia, we really need to
talk this out.

No, we really don't.

What did you find the database?

Typically, when calling in a favour,

it's customary to say
"Hi, how are you?"

Hi, how are you,
what did you find?

Nothing on Jakob Novak.

No priors, no arrests,
no convictions.

How is that possible?

Apart from being named in the
charges against Melanie Heyward...

All I need is a couple of uniforms.

Not without just cause.

I'm already out on a limb
accessing the database.

What would it take to move on him?

We need to establish
a pattern of behaviour

for the police to look
into Jakob seriously.

You know, he never talked
about himself or his past.

Not ever.

You can't be the only one
he did this to.

We need to dig.

Daisy, you can have her
for ten minutes,

Luci, you can have it next.

Are you there? Melanie?

There is someone who can help us.

JAKOB: Total lightweight.
Because you'll be number one again?

What do you think?
Ship it in.

(FOREIGN DIALOGUE)

I need to find other women
that he has done this to.

Maybe he did it to you, too?

Oh, I am so not his type.

Which is?

Women so desperate for attention
they tear their clothes off

the second a well-dressed guy
looks twice.

No offence.

So, I'm not the only one?

He is such a misogynist arsehole.

Can you help me?

I can show you how to find them
on Facebook.

Thank you.

Are you kidding?

You made my year when you smashed
your car into him.

Thanks for coming straight away.

You said it was important.

Melanie's got us
what we need to deal with Jakob.

We hope so.

Contact details of three women
that he had relationships with.

Who are we meeting first?

Melanie. Rachel Atwood.

How can I help you?
It's about Jakob Novak.

I think you need to leave.

Please leave.

Her face when you said his name.

She's terrified of him.

(PHONE RINGS)

Hold on.
Yeah?

You need to get back here.
They want you in the board room.

What going on?

Don't know
but it's wall-to-wall grimness.

Did Christof respond
to our meeting invitation?

No.
Deathly silence.

That mean he's pissy with us again?
I'm coming back.

I've got to go.
Divide the other two between you

and sort out whatever weirdness
is going on.

Why don't you take Freya,
I'll talk to Caitlin?

Or we could talk to them together?

I thought Jakob was amazing,
we had this instant connection.

He's good at that.

How long did you and Jakob
see each other?

A few months.

Then I got a promotion over-seas
but he wouldn't do long distance.

It was mutual?

Yeah, pretty much.

Did he ever try and control you?

Was there any scary behaviour?

No, it was totally fine.

I'm sure you aware that
McBride and Parkes

has a time honoured tradition.

Loyalty,

honesty and integrity.

These are the values that drive
everything we do.

They are what we expect of each
and every one of our people.

Especially you.

Now you are a partner
in this firm.

Congratulations.

What do you think?
Seeing it in print?

Now is the moment
that you thank us profusely

for the opportunity
of a lifetime.

Yes. Thank you.

Of course.
Thank you.

What happened?

He just stopped calling one day.

He ghosted you?

No explanation.
Just cut me dead.

Why do you want to know?

It's just that I was just worried
because for me

he was kind of scary.

I mean, did that happen with you?

It all worked out for me.

A part of me wonders what might
of been.

You know?

No, trust me.
You better off away from him.

I just don't get it,
none of these woman are alike.

Two of them
are totally untraumatized.

I'm sorry about last night.

You have every right to be angry.
I was just so dumb.

Hey, no, all these women
were taken in my him.

Smart women,
it can happen to any of us.

It did happen to us.

I'm sorry I was a bitch.

Let's just not let this guy
come between us.

You're too important.

Love the view, wait till you see
the pay-check.

I was expecting
swinging from the chandeliers.

Occupational health and safety.

I really thought
Alex had it sewn up.

Should I tell him,
or would you like to?

His bride's meltdown
at the County Court

didn't play well
with the partnership committee.

You on the other hand.

I can't tell you how great it is to
have another woman at the big table.

Just don't fuck it up, yeah?

So, there are two cameras inside,
two cameras outside,

and they're controlled
by this app.

So they're recording 24/7

and you can actually watch
the videos live as well.

Why are you doing this?

Making you feel safe?

What you trying to catch me
in the act of?

Shagging the N-B-N guy
or the plumber?

Oh, I don't know.
You tell me.

I didn't think
you were the sort of person

who'd fuck a random house salesman,
so, clearly, I'm not a great judge.

Seriously?

You've put cameras in here,
what's next?

The camera in the bedroom
just to be safe?

Jesus Melanie, I'm trying...
Well, this isn't the way.

Then tell me what is.

Now, that's your answer?
Walk away.

I don't want to say anything
we can't come back from.

What is there to come back from?

Oh, you look so fucking hot.

Ok, yeah.

Is that what you wanted?

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

Hey!
Jakob!

Jakob, where were you?
Dad, you can't just let yourself in.

You were supposed to be there
to see me get the award.

I got caught up with work.

You call that a career?
Selling shitbox little townhouses.

You've never aimed high enough,
that's your problem.

Oh, come on, come on.

Are you going to get
your old man a drink, or what?

Janine, I got your text.
I don't understand.

Of all the people
to stab me in the back.

I got this from Steph Dryers.
Read it.

"Hi, everyone.
I'm sad to be leaving Katsuma

but I'm pleased
to be taking bookings."

For an amazing mobile salon
experience I know you'll love.

Sent to every client
in my contact list.

Shitty thing to do.
I would never do that.

Who else had access, Melanie?
Who else benefits?

I think I've been hacked.

By who?

Right.

Now you've been fired too.

Bad day at work?

The service industries
can be so fickle.

Stay away from me, Jakob.

Well, I would Melanie.

But you can't seem
to stay away from me.

You hacked my email.

Coming to my work like that.
How dare you.

I'm calling the police.

To tell them what?

You don't call the shots, Melanie.
Ever.

So, I'll have to change
all my passwords again,

the house, my Insta, now my email.

I wish I knew what to do.

What an absolute lowlife.

He's driving wedges
between everything.

Between you and me,
with Michael...

How can the police not intervene?

Well, it's always going to be
his word against mine.

Oh, hun.

Do you want to come stay down here?

I could run up
and get the girls.

No, I have to tell Michael
about losing my job.

God knows what we'll do for money.

Maybe Saskia will sling me
some of her inheritance?

I wish I could help.

It's OK.

Hey, Jakob.
What's up?

Starting to think
I wasn't going to hear from you.

Treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen.

Olivia Cotterill the player, hello.

I know, right?
I have many hidden talents.

Hey, I love a hidden talent.

You are full of surprises.

There is one complication.

Mm-hm.

Melanie Heyward.

I didn't realise
you two knew each other.

No way. Your Melanie
is Melanie Heyward?

Oh, it's such a small world.

I know, right?

I mean I mentioned you in passing
and she got so weird.

Really?
In what way?

I don't know. It's like
she was jealous or something.

I don't see why.

We only saw each other
a couple of times.

And she's married.

Yeah.
That was a real deal breaker for me.

I can't believe she didn't tell you.

I had no idea when we hooked up.

Being lied to like that.

I know what that feels like.

I would've been furious...

I know we only just met
and everything,

but you need to talk.

Can I?

I can trust you?

Because there's so much
I need to say.

You know,
that I can't tell anyone...

Hey.

Olivia, recording me.

Give it back.

And I thought we had a connection.

Did she send you?

No.
This was all me.

You women.

Don't ever think
you're smarter than me.

You can't hurt me.

You're home?
The kids OK?

Yeah, I just thought maybe we could
have talk without them around?

Cake?

Must be bad news.

Should I put the kettle on?

No, no. Let me.

I'm sorry about the cameras.
I really did mean well.

I know.

Sorry. You wanted to say something.

Wait.

What's this?

Oh. The Faradays took me back.

The new guys butchering
the camellias.

I want us to get through this
but I don't know how.

We'll find a way.

Yeah, we'll find a way.

So, you missed breakfast
or fancy-pants Earl Grey?

I'll just take Earl Grey.

How can you make this kind of cash
and max out a credit card?

Who is this terrible with money?

Ok. Personal emails are personal.

Alex.

You need to make an appointment
to see a Partner.

(INAUDIBLE)

Someone's enjoying
their new authority.

I didn't think you'd say yes.

Well, that doesn't sound like,

"Congratulations Saskia,
you've earned this."

Oh, congratulations, Saskia.

I'm glad I helped cover up
a 200,000 theft

so you could get Partner over me.

You're in a mood.

Where is your conscience?

Ok. I'm not doing this.

The embezzlement thing is dead
and buried.

So, you need to get over it.

Unless there's something else?

Julia wants us
to work on this together.

Who is Marieke Cummins?

It's not that
my beloved husband cheated...

Cheating is the worst.

It's the stealing from me.

Hiding my money in some overseas
account like I wouldn't notice.

Dickhead.

Stealing from people
who trust you.

That is the worst.

I want you to find my money,

and then I want you to screw him
on the settlement harder

than he banged that skinny
gold digger from the gym.

That's why we've brought Saskia in.

She's an expert in stolen funds.

And Alex here is our go-to
for relationship breakdowns.

You two.

The sexual energy.

I like it.

The real tragedy is I'd take
the silly bugger back tomorrow.

Heart wants what it wants, right?

Not all of us get a second chance.

Thank you.

Colourful.

You know the rumours,
her being a gangland boss?

A girl's got to eat.
Your three o'clock is here.

Thank you.

Alex, reception said there's someone
in the conference room for you.

Who?

Thank you, Uzma.

Kerri.
What the hell?

I wanted to see you,
but you won't give me your number.

I can't do this right now.

I wanted to give you this.

An engagement present.
The wedding's off.

It was really for you anyway.

Coolangatta, remember?

You loved it there.

We'd just been fishing
for the first time.

There were some good times.

Amongst the not so good times.

But everyone deserves forgiveness,

don't you think,
if they prove themselves worthy?

If you can find it
in your heart...

If you can't, I'll understand.

No one will blame you.

I should get back to work.

Hi.
Hi.

I'm so glad
you changed your mind.

Yeah, well, hearing you talk about
that feeling

of being watched by him.
I know that feeling.

Coffee, tea?

I thought that he saw
something in me

that nobody else had ever seen.

I was the woman
that even I had lost sight of.

What he could see
was something to exploit.

So, it was the same with you?

I had everything.

Career. Great house.
All I needed was the man.

Maybe a little too much.

It was like with you
in the start.

He was charming.
Attentive.

Made me feel like I was in control.

But when I called it off
is when it started.

What did he do?

He used to turn up places.

My sister's wedding.

Work awards night.

Harass my parents.

How long did this go on for?
Him harassing you?

A bit over two years.

Why does he do it, do you think?

What's in it for him?

My psychologist says
he's a narcissist

with a sense of grandiosity.

He thinks he's perfect

so, the world should treat him
that way.

But, when people don't,
especially women.

Do you think
he was ever in love with you?

It's not about love.

Jakob can't do love.

It's about power.

He can't let anyone see underneath
this persona he's created.

Vulnerability,
a fear of not being good enough.

That's what's underneath.

Anyone who forces him to face that,

especially if they humiliate him...

..well, that's where
his anger comes from.

That's where the danger is.

I humiliated him at his work.

Then until you've suffered,

until he's made you feel
completely insignificant...

He'll just keep at it?

I know you think there's a way
to beat him...

But, you can't.

I tried.
He won't let it happen.

But if we take him on together?

Please tell me that you'll help me
make a statement?

What would I have to do?

(AUDIO PLAYING)

MELANIE: But if we can take him on
together.

Please tell me that you'll help me
make a statement.

RACHEL: What would I have to do?

Olivia, I need you to confirm
the procedure you're having today.

A lymph node biopsy
in my left arm.

Good.

You got someone
to pick you up after?

He'll be here.

Nathanial is going to pop
the mask on.

We'll get you to count backwards
from ten.

Just breathe normally.

Ten, nine, eight...

Hi. I'm here to pick up
Olivia Cotterill?

Your name?

God, am I late?
I'm always late. It drives her nuts.

Hold on a moment.
Is she expecting you?

No, don't worry.
Here she is.

Hey, wait up. Wait up.

Sure you don't need the wheelchair?

It was a biopsy.
My legs still work.

Remember that time
that we got drunk

and you went skinny dipping
in the dam?

Yeah. You made fun of my bum.

It's so cute and fuzzy...

It's an incredible bum,
I know, thank you.

What did they give you?

You sure didn't want Bill
or Colleen to come get you?

Only you understand
the delicate art of not snooping.

I did a dumb thing today.
I haven't told anyone.

He's a bad man.

Who is?

Shh. No snooping.

OLIVIA'S VOICEMAIL: Hi, it's Olivia.
I missed you!

Please leave a message
and I'll get straight back to you.

Hey babe, it's me.

Great news.

Rachel's on board.

So, just a statement from you
and we'll stop the bastard.

I don't suppose
you fancy getting pissed?

Just the two of us.

Call me back, you slack tart.

Didn't expect your call.
We haven't hooked up in ages.

This artist is supposed to be
the hot new thing.

It'd be good to have some fun
with our clothes on.

That kind of fun is over-rated.
I'm here for the booze.

But we're here.
Still not a date.

Vodka soda, right?
Straight up.

"A Meditation on Loneliness."

It doesn't scream joy
that's for sure.

We see what we want to see.
Don't you think?

Thinking is overrated.

Sometimes it's better just to act.

But then you would say that.

You always did like a stoush.

Miss it?

You look great.
As do you.

Don't remember you being into art.

Well, a lot has changed.

Oh, the new wife?

Grace.

The artist.

Is that right?

But then you knew that.

That's why you're here.

She's hot.

Yes, she is.

Did you get your happy ever after
then?

I'll never understand
why you did what you did.

We weren't going anywhere.
We were practically engaged.

There was someone else?

There were lots of someone else's.

You knew the marriage thing
wasn't for me.

The queue was a murder.

Let's get out of here.
Don't want to see the art?

No.

Who's birthday is it tomorrow?

Mummy's birthday!

But Mummy doesn't want a fuss,
though.

But Mummy might not have a choice.
She's getting a big surprise.

Is she?
That sounds like fun.

Thank you.

You don't have to.
I know.

I want to.

Gross.

I dunno, Mummy likes it.

She does, does she?

Yeah.
Let's see how gross it is.

Ok.

Yep, like it.
I think she likes it.

I don't think it's gross.

You want to see it again?

Mummy, would you just wait.
Are we going to have cake?

I want cake.

One minute, Mummy needs some more.

(CROSSTALK)

Can we have cake now?

Dad, are you here?

Were you racking the Pinot today?

Dad?

Dad? Dad!

Hey, where are you going?

I'm just going to the bathroom.

But, it's your birthday.

Don't you want your special birthday
morning surprise?

Hold that thought.

Hm. OK. Don't make me start
on my own.

I love it.

This is such a big surprise.

Where did you get that?
On the table.

It's not from you?

I can't get it off.

I don't understand how a barrel
could come loose like that.

It's impossible.
They were fully secured.

I checked them myself.

Then how did this happen?

Mum, did you call him?
He loves Bill.

Any news?

He's just having an MRI.

You've got to want to eat.
Both of you.

Alex, you're so thoughtful.
Thank you. Thank you.

How'd you get away from work?

Slow day.

So not true.

Your dad is indestructible.
You'll see.

Yeah, well.

He might be...

I'm having some tests.

So, it's back?

Something new.

These tests.
I'm coming with you.

You don't have to.

Let me.

Olivia please.

The cameras stopped recording.

There's a time jump, here.

Jakob?

He was accessing our cameras?

If he could access your WIFI,

it's pretty simple
to stop the cameras.

I've got to get the girls
out of here.

I'll take them to mum's beach house.

That's a good idea.

Jakob.
Tell me what he's like.

I met him in the display village.

I was showing her around
the Master Suite when...

..well,
she made her intentions clear.

He initiated it.
It only happened a few times.

I realised it was a mistake
and broke it off.

I sent her some gifts
to let her down gently.

He just wouldn't let it go.

Some women get really clingy
when I end things.

He sent flowers to my work.

She mentioned the name of the saloon
she worked at,

I didn't think it was a crime
to google.

He left a teddy bear
here at the house.

I hadn't even given him the address.

Everybody who orders a quote
leaves their address.

He went after a friend of mine
to get to me.

He offered Michael a job
that didn't even exist.

It sounded like
they were struggling financially.

I was trying to help.

And then he came here to the house
again,

and he left me this present.

I don't even know
when her birthday is.

So, if we were to check
your bank records,

we wouldn't find a transaction
for this necklace?

She's the one who tried to hurt me.

She's been harassing me.
But I'm under investigation?

I'm worried.
Rachel should be here by now.

Maybe she's stuck in traffic.

Yeah, but wouldn't she answer?

Hey love, if you need
to go to the hospital...

Dad's going to be OK.
He's coming home tonight.

I saw Jakob.

What?

I thought if I recorded him
admitting what he had done...

What happened?

He caught me.

Now I'm worried what happened
to Dad is payback.

I'll try her again.

Do you think that he knows about...

Melanie.

Girl power, eh?

What did you do to Rachel?

Rachel who?

It's opened.

Rachel?

Rachel?

This isn't right.

Wait, it wasn't like this before?

No, it was crazy neat.

Maybe she left in a hurry.
A massive hurry.

Jakob did this.

If I've put her in danger...

No, no, no.

If she was so scared of him
and I forced her into this.

Rachel wanted to help.

How could he know?

(AUDIO PLAYING)
MELANIE: I don't get it.
