Tomorrow, you are gonna walk

out of that courtroom a free woman.

We discredit Sharna as a witness.

Take a look at this.

Oh, it's a hit-and-run.

There's speculation that her
brother was in fact the driver

and, uh, she took the rap for
him because he was drugged up.

If we can show that Sharna
has a history of perjuring himself,

then it'll discredit her testimony.

Yes, but this will ruin her career.

Do you want to see
your mother go to jail?

You pimped me out
to her in the first place!

Well, I was wrong!
You should've stayed away!

What are you doing, Mum?

I'm just pulling out the rosebushes.

At 5:00 in the morning?

The gardenias aren't
getting enough sunlight.

That's because it's night-time.

Well, if I go to jail today,

there'll be no-one to look after them.

You're not going to jail.

Can you pass me the trowel, please?

Look, everything is gonna be fine.

Michael will get you out of it.

The trowel, please.

Thanks.

So, can we talk about Sharna?

So, that's who you're worried about?

- I'm worried about both of you.
- But...?

But if you discredit her in court
today, she'll lose her career.

So, you'd rather see your
own mother behind bars?

No, of course not.
But do you have to play

so dirty to save yourself?

The only reason you give a damn

is because you're sleeping with her.

And there'll be other women,
Hugh. There always are.

She came after me first.

Ajax...

Ajax, are you ignoring me?

No.

We really need to talk.

Here, let me help you with...

It's fine.

Ajax,

I almost slept with Tom.

We have to deal with this.

Fine.

Do you want me to deal
with it? I'll deal with it.

Ajax.

Come on.

Mate...

Go on, then.

I gather she told you?

Yeah. I want to know how it happened.

We were in the caravan...

No. Stop talking.

OK.

I just want to know why it happened.

Mate, I tried not to
be in love with her.

But I am.

- You need to leave.
- Yeah.

- Get off my property!
- Alright.

Ajax, you should know...

I think she's in love with me too.

Morning. I bring bagels.

Are you ready for this?

Um, almost.

I've just got to finish
mending Ajax's pants

and sort the washing
and clean the oven.

Right. You're nervous.

Only an unprepared person is nervous.

Hmm.

Oh, that shirt won't do.

What? This is my best shirt.

Well, go and put on
one of Hugh's shirts.

Go on.

Charlie, the silverware
needs polishing.

OK.

Meryl, everything is fine.

- We're gonna win today.
- Yes.

Yes, we are.

And tonight, you and I are
gonna be sitting in a restaurant

having dinner to celebrate.

- And that will be lovely.
- Morning.

Hugh?

What's going on with those two?

You reckon he's hitting on her?

They're old friends.

Are they?

Don't you worry about a thing...

- They've known each other for years.
- Have they?

Look, there's an old
photo here somewhere.

Ah, there we go.

See?

First of all...

- He looks...
- Young, I know.

No, I was gonna say, like you.

Really?

You know, I mean, I'm not surprised.

You're basically the same person.

I don't think so.

He's you 30 years on. You're
even wearing the same suit.

Actually, knowing this family,

I wouldn't be surprised if he's
your long-lost secret father.

Yes, well, that would explain a lot.

Mmm.

You know what, I'm gonna go find Matt.

Polish this fork, will you?

This is what I do for
a living. Don't worry...

Morning.

Feast your eyes.

- 15-year-old single malt.
- Mmm.

500 bucks worth, no less.

A little thankyou gift from Jack
Gregory for excising his cyst.

The only thing a patient's
ever given me was a knitted hat.

And headlice.

Lovely.

Oh, I need to take an
early lunch, by the way.

How early?

10:00am.

- Mum's trial.
- Oh.

Big night, Ken?

Sharna's deadline is tomorrow.

Yes, I know.

That's why I've brought this in

to celebrate once we meet patient quota.

We are nowhere near.

Well, how many patients
short are we? 30, 40?

- 110.
- 110?

What happens if we
don't make it by tomorrow?

Then we don't get the funding.

No funding means no
equipment, no supplies...

We could even lose more staff.

- Or worse...
- We could get shut down.

OK. OK. Don't panic.

We can do 100 patients by tomorrow.

Right?

For 20 years, Meryl Knight

has fought tirelessly for this town.

She's fought for your community,
she's fought for your businesses

and today is no different as
she fights to clear her name.

I'm very confident that after today

these spurious charges against
my client will be dismissed.

Will Whyhope Council be reinstated?

Will Meryl stand as mayor again?

Last chance to reconsider.

We can both walk away from this.

There's still time.

I came here to do a job
and I'm gonna finish it.

Maybe I can't run from
my past but neither can you.

Ajax, it's me. Where are you?

The trial's about to start.

- Call me.
- He should be here.

- Mum could go to jail.
- Right.

Hugh's on his way.

We all need to pull together.
This is about Mum today.

Yep. Um, I have to go.

What? You too? Where are you going?

No prizes for guessing
who's still on the witness list.

- Rod. I'm gonna kill him.
- Oh, don't worry about Rod.

The main nail in the coffin will be

- when I cross-examine Sharna.
- Mmm.

We'll prove that she
previously committed perjury

and her credibility will be destroyed.

Along with her career.

I'm gonna worry about her right now.

Meryl Knight, you've been called.

Meryl?

Showtime.

Good luck today.

Do you love her?

Sorry?

I'm not going to jail to protect
one of your meaningless flings

and if I'm gonna do this,

it's gotta be worth it.

I need to know.

Do you love her?

Yeah.

Yeah, I do.

Meryl, come on. Let's go.

Change of plans.

What?

Drop the perjury.

You're kidding, aren't you?

I've made my decision.
Drop the perjury.

Meryl, you can't do this.

We haven't got time.

I have faith in you.

You'll find something.

So, the purpose of your investigation

was to determine whether
Ms. Knight exploited her position

for her own personal
gain, is that correct?

- That's correct.
- And what did you find?

Several instances of
her accepting bribes.

Uh, don't you mean donations, I think?

For example?

September 2016, Ms. Knight received

a donation from mine owner Nathan Eagle

for $1,000.

Yes, the same $1,000 she then used

to save the flower show from
cancellation, isn't that right?

Objection. Relevance.

Overruled.

Ms. Bahtt?

As far as I'm aware.

However, she also took

a bribe in May 2014 for $2,500.

Funding for the Whyhope town fete.

Next?

And another - June 2012, $4,300.

Also known as the Municipal
Pool Renovation Fund.

Your Honour, it would seem that
what Ms. Bahtt is actually saying

is that because of the
actions of my client,

kids in Whyhope can now learn to swim,

the retirement home has a
place to show their daffodils

and in all honesty, it could be said

that Meryl Knight has been instrumental

in keeping the town of Whyhope alive.

Not what I'd call her own
personal gain, Your Honour.

There's also $1,200 in council
funds missing and unaccounted for.

Yes.

One moment, please.

Don't even think about it.

No further questions, Your Honour.

Ah, Tom, thank God.

I don't know what to do.

Ajax has gone missing.

Hang on. Are you going somewhere?

Time to leave.

What?

You can't just... leave.

Hayley, I can't stay here anymore.

Yes, you can. Look... Uh...
Look, I'll... I'll talk to Ajax.

I'll tell him that it was
all just a big mistake

and we'll promise it'll
never happen again.

I can't promise that.

I love you.

No!

If you leave, I'll never see you again.

Well, you could come with me.

What... And leave Ajax?

Yeah.

Come with me.

I must say, I am
dismayed to see corruption

at the very highest level of council.

The on-sale of a private
cemetery to councillors,

multiple allegations of bribery...

Frankly, I find it appalling.

However, one thing is clear to me.

Meryl Knight, you care
very deeply for your town.

Unfortunately, good intentions
will not excuse illegal actions.

Meryl Knight, I find you guilty.

I'm imposing on you a term
of imprisonment of 12 months

to be served by way of an
intensive corrections order.

You will perform 100
hours of community service

and on top of that,

you will be required to
compensate the council for damages.

That will be all.

Court dismissed.

What exactly does that mean?

Well, it's not jail but you'll have
to do the community service.

Picking up rubbish?

Absolutely not.

- Call her back.
- Meryl, it's over.

Let's go.

- I want an appeal.
- Oh...

- It could've been a lot worse.
- Community service?

I've been doing community
service my entire life.

Never mind about community service.

You've got bigger problems than that.

You're gonna have
to pay back the council

all the money they say
you obtained from corruption

over the last ten years.

Fine.

I've spoken to the prosecution.

They're prepared to accept a lesser

amount but we have to do it today.

Can you make that happen?

No! I got rid of all my
cash, like you told me to.

Oh, alright. Look, just let
me help you out for now...

No, no, no, no. We are family.
We'll give you the money.

Right, Hugh?

Sure. Sure. Of course.

I don't want your money.

This is my problem and I can handle it.

Well, the offer still stands.

Can I take you up on that offer?

- Is that my shirt?
- I don't think so.

There is another option.

They are prepared to
accept goods to the value.

Fine. Whatever.

As if this whole charade hasn't
been embarrassing enough.

Maybe there'll be a lunchtime rush.

I better call some more patients.

Hey. Look what I found.

- What's with the box, Ken?
- New marketing campaign.

Free hat with every visit.

Oh, free hat, sir?

Thank you for coming.

Tell your friends.

Ah, Mrs. Watson. Hello.

It's Dr. Cartwright here.

I was wondering if Carl
wanted to come in for a check-up

for his heart.

Oh, God. Is he?

I'm so sorry.

Hey. How did the trial go?
Is Meryl OK?

Well, she's not in jail,
so that's something.

How many patients have we had?

Four. And I just tried to make
an appointment with a dead guy.

- Oh, that doesn't count?
- I don't think so.

Hugh, this isn't working.
We need more patients.

OK.

Leave it with me.

Your text said emergency.

Oh, yeah. It isn't.

But you're in need of a physical.

I'm in excellent health.

Well, I'll be the judge of that.

Your dad was great in court today.

Hmm. Not my dad.

Oh, come on. You'd have to
admit it'd explain a few things.

You were never anything like Jim.

And you're an awful lot like Michael.

You see, I can't actually tell
if you're being serious or not.

I don't know, I just think
it would explain certain

attributes of yours.

Like what?

Seriously?

A high-flying womaniser
with a penchant for drugs.

You don't see a connection?

He's driven, intelligent, suave.

So is Pierce Brosnan.
Perhaps he's my father.

- Maybe.
- Hugh...

Hey, Charlie.

Penny! Perfect! We're in
need of a second opinion.

- On what?
- Nothing.

Michael being Hugh's secret father.

Scandalous. I love it.

It's not scandalous. It's ridiculous.

I was a donor match for Jim, remember?

That doesn't technically
prove you're related, though.

Just that you had a
matching HLA profile

and you're both O-negative blood types.

So, could we check if Michael
is O-negative blood type?

We definitely cannot.

You're fine but in
desperate need of a hobby.

Mmm. Shit-stirring not a hobby anymore?

Bye, Charlie.

Mmm... What about Jimmy?

Well, he'd come too, of course.

We could move on to the next town.
No-one would know who we are.

We could be whoever we want to be.

That does sound sort of amazing.

No... I couldn't.

My job is here. My whole life is here.

No... I... I couldn't.

I can't...

It'd be reckless...

Highly impractical.

I can wait until tomorrow to leave.

Hopefully you'll come with me.

Oh, no, no. Please take something else.

Meryl, let them do their job.

Come on. Sit down.

Oh, no, you can't take that.
I've still got things to sew.

Meryl, Meryl...

OK. So, I've also got listed
an antique pearl necklace.

Absolutely not.

I have a lovely lawnmower.

It's a ride-on.

We don't have a lot of choice here.

Thanks.

It's... It's just stuff.
It doesn't matter.

It's not just stuff.

That was my mother's necklace.

Last thing on the
list is just this lamp...

- Absolutely not...
- Meryl, it's a lamp. Let it go.

- No.
- I'll buy you a new lamp.

You've already done enough.

What does that mean?

You were supposed to
get me off those charges.

Maybe if we do been allowed to
use the perjury, then I would've.

This is really an excellent
result for you, you know.

- You could've gone to jail.
- I still have a conviction.

- I know.
- You know?

No, you don't.

I can never be mayor,

I can never sit on council

and everything is being
taken away from me.

No! No, just... leave me alone.

Leave me alone.

So, we won't go to dinner, then?

I don't think I'm up for it.

Thanks for your help, Michael.

Goodbye.

_

Thanks, mate.

Ken, what was that?

I ran out of hats and the guy got
angry, so I had to give him $10.

And before I knew it,
everyone wanted $10.

You can't pay people to
come here. It's unethical.

How else am I meant
to get customers, then?

I don't know.

Use some of that famous charm of yours.

Hey. What are you doing here?

I heard what you said.

What?

Outside the courtroom.

You... love me, huh?

Yes. Well, I mean,
I love lots of things.

Danish cigars, for one. Mmm...

Henry over there, for instance.

Henry, good to see you.

Love you, mate.

You know it was never my plan

to stay in Whyhope indefinitely.

Well, I mean, no-one plans on
staying in Whyhope, do they?

Just kind of sucks you in

and before you know it, you've
lost four years and a kidney.

I'm being recalled to Sydney.

When?

Next week.

Wow. Uh, that is soon.

Well, yeah.

And so, I was wondering

if I should start clearing
out an undies drawer for you.

I kind of promised to stay
until the hospital was sorted.

But by tomorrow it will be, right?
You just need to hit the quota.

Your funding will be reinstated
and you'll be free to go.

- Yes. About the quota...
- Hugh...

No, I mean, we still
have 24 hours, right?

You'd be amazed to see
what I can do in 24 hours.

So, it's a yes to Sydney?

It's a yes to Sydney.

Oh, and, um, that thing you said...

I do too.

Thank you.

Oh, Michael. You shouldn't have.

It wasn't meant for you but I
thought, why waste the reservation?

OK. I'll come back
and take your order.

Oh, no need. I'll have
the steak, please.

- Medium-rare.
- No, you won't.

You'll have the salad, no dressing.

- He has a heart condition.
- Right.

- And for you, sir?
- I'll have the steak. Medium-rare.

You are the worst date ever.

And that's why you should
never date your doctor.

Which reminds me,

you need to come into the
clinic for a check-up tomorrow.

Oh, as long as I can drink tonight.

Uh, you can have one glass.

One.

It was seriously low for a stepladder.

And Leonard. How's Leonard?

He's dead.

Yeah.

His son runs the place. Does a good job.

God. How long have I been gone for?

Like, a lifetime.

You know what, I am moving back.

You're what? You're...
You're leaving Whyhope?

Yep. I really am.

Oh!

With Sharna.

- You remember Sharna, don't you?
- Mm-hm.

The woman you
tried to destroy in court.

Yes.

- But how we can laugh about it now.
- Oh, how we can laugh.

Well, we actually can, because
I'm getting my old life back.

Be careful what you wish for.

You may have to live
with your choices one day.

What choices are you living with?

The pinot or the cab sav?

Well, I had a choice.

I had a choice between the woman I loved

and having everything else.

And I chose... everything else.

Oh.

Wow. That's a bit of a downer.

Yeah. It's different for you, though.

I mean, you are leaving
Whyhope with the woman you love.

- Yes, I am.
- So you'll be fine.

I gave up the woman I loved

for the woman who came
with the life I thought I wanted.

Hmm.

Hang on.

You're not talking about Mum?

Mum's not the one that got away?

I think we could, um...

Um, excuse me.

Uh...

You're... You're left-handed, right?

Yes. Always been a lefty.

What blood type are you?

Uh, O-negative.

Oh, shit.

Oh...

What's going on?

What year was that?

I don't know what you're talking about.

What year were you in
Sydney with Michael alone?

- 1979?
- Why?

Nine months before I was born, perhaps?

Oh, I don't like what
you're insinuating.

I'm not crazy about it either.

And you're drunk. This is ridiculous.

I won't have it.

You're ridiculous.

So, that's it? You're out of here?

My work here is done.
Onto something bigger.

Well, cheers to something bigger.

You know, you strike me as
somewhat ambitious yourself.

Mmm...

I once tried to teach French
mime to a kindergarten class.

That was pretty ambitious.

But you're not teaching anymore?

- Mmm.
- Maybe you need a new project.

Oh, well, I'm writing a book. Sort of.

Maybe it's an article or a podcast...

Yeah, I had something else in mind.

What would you say if
I had a job offer for you?

Well, it depends. What job?

Mayor?

She wants you to be mayor?

- It's not mayor.
- Then what is it?

It's the interim council
community replacement.

Oh...

Alright, fine. It's mayor, but
it'd just be till the next election.

Oh, my god. I am dating my mother.

I'm not turning into Meryl!

Oh, really? You were
baking the other day.

- Where did that come from?
- That was one quiche!

And besides, it doesn't matter,
because I'm not gonna do it.

- You're not?
- No.

I've never even thought
about being mayor.

OK.

It's weird she asked
you to do it, though.

It's not that weird.

I ran a school.

If I can get those eight-year-olds
to sit through assembly,

I can do anything.

- But you're not gonna do it?
- No, I'm not.

OK. Good.

Fine.

But if you ever get the urge to
suddenly dye your hair blonde...

You'll be the first to know.

Good.

Ajax?

Please, can we talk?

He's asked me to go with him.

Oh, uh, I guess I'll come back later.

Oh, I wouldn't, if I were you.

If I were you, I'd stop skipping school,

sit for your exams and
reach your potential.

Yeah, look, um,

I don't think I'm gonna take life
advice from a sponge monkey.

Need a hand with that?

I don't think that's how it works.

Do you always do the
time with your clients?

Not all of them. No.

Sorry about yesterday.

I know being mayor was important to you.

Yes, it was.

Especially after Jim died.

It's all I had. Now it's all gone.

I don't think that's true.

Well, look at me.

I'm a sponge monkey.

For 100 hours.

Then you pack up, start
again, do something else.

What if there isn't anything else?

Well, as a very wise
wall once told me,

this shit ain't over.

Also, um, apparently Zac is a dick.

That's worth knowing.

Do you really think we're gonna
be cracking that open today?

We still need to see, what, 80 patients?

Penny, where is your optimism?

All we need is a nine-car
pile-up and a bout of chickenpox.

- Or a lovely bout of gastro.
- Ooh, that'd be nice.

- Thank you.
- Whoa.

- Thank you.
- Uh, Ken?

What's all this?

They're all from the farmers'
association, here for a check-up.

I, uh, called in a favour
with my buddy Gordon.

Hey, Gordon! Still on
for book club later on?

Oh, yes. Mmm.

- That is pure genius.
- Yes.

One small thing. I may have
promised him something in return.

Sure.

- Oh...
- Come on.

Hugh, you realise this only counts

if we actually see all these
people by the close of business?

Shit.

Next.

Urinary tract infection.

Trimethoprim. Once a day.

Am I wrong?

Next.

- Lethargic, tired, run down...
- Yeah.

Is it broken? Will I need a cast?

Yep. Damn. That's gonna take forever.

Stay put.

And my left foot...

It's painful? Numb? Swollen?

Yes, that last one.

And when did the chest pain first start?

A couple of weeks ago.

- It comes and goes?
- It's like it's burning.

I'll give you a hand there, mate.

Thank you.

Any shortness of breath?

- No. Not really.
- Any nausea?

Could be a stomach ulcer.
My dad had one.

Mmm. Maybe. But more likely reflux.

OK. You, antacid.
You, no more skateboard.

Next.

- How many have you seen?
- 28.

- You?
- 31.

Oh, my God. I think we
actually might pull this off.

Speaking of patients...

Michael, come in.

Take a seat.

- Hi, Michael.
- Hello there.

Numbers are looking good.

I can't wait to have money again.

Actually, since you mentioned it,

I've had my on the Speed File 2000.

At $600, it's a steal.

Yeah. I'll let you
pitch that one to Hugh.

Why? He's not gonna be here.

What do you mean?

Oh, Hugh's going to Sydney with Sharna.

Oh. Right. Of course.

- Are you OK?
- Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm happy for him.

Of course he should go.
I mean, why would he stay?

Oh, my god. It spins!

- Any more chest pain?
- No.

Light-headedness?

No, Hugh. I'm fine. Really.

Just trying to have a
good time, that's all.

Must be good to see Mum again.

Yeah.

I mean, I know you guys have
been great mates for years but...

It was never any more than that, was it?

Yeah, I mean, we went
out together for over a year.

She didn't tell you that?

Not really.

Right.

Well, it was a while back.

Then I left and went to Sydney.

She stayed and married Jim.

Huh. And you were
just friends after that?

- Yeah.
- Hmm.

She came to visit me a
couple of times in Sydney,

uh, when I was being
admitted to the bar.

Oh, yeah? What year was that?

Uh, '80, '81.

Why?

Just curious.

So, uh, will I live?

Uh, yeah. Blood pressure's fine.

You could do with
some changes in lifestyle.

Less salt. But...

You're the doc.

Oh, '79.

That was the year I
was admitted to the bar.

The same here they passed a law

allowing pubs to open on a Sunday.

What I call a good year.

I'm good to go?

Actually, I might just take some blood.

Just to be safe.

Does anyone want tea?

- How many tea breaks has she had?
- Eight.

Plus four loo breaks and
one long-distance phone call.

Hayley, where's Ajax? I haven't
seen him since yesterday.

Um, Ajax, he's... he's in
bed. He's not feeling very well.

I thought I saw his car
in town earlier today.

- Probably off gambling.
- What do you mean?

Uh... Nothing.

This town wouldn't run without us women.

God knows what's gonna
happen with the new mayor.

It's gonna be Edwin Melvin for sure

and that's all we need, is
an arrogant, bigoted old fart.

What if there was someone,

someone young and ambitious and savvy?

Exactly. Mmm.

But do we know anyone with those traits?

I know who.

Me. We need another me.

Hey. Nice work. It's looking good.

- It's exhausting.
- Mmm.

- How was your check-up with Hugh?
- Oh, good.

He mainly asked a lot of questions,
actually, about you and me.

- Did he now?
- Yep.

But that's because
I'm as fit as a fiddle.

Took some blood. Don't know why.

Oh, I know what for.

You lot keep working. I'll be back.

Yeah, I appreciate you rushing it.

No, it's, um... It's printing now.

OK. Great. Thanks.

- How dare you!
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa...

You can't come in here.
Private and confidential.

You ran a paternity test?

No.

This is a test for... Ebola.

You seriously thought I had an affair?

Well, I don't know what to think.

How come you never told me
you and Michael were together?

Because it was none of your business.

I loved your father with
every fibre in my body.

How can you even think that
I would betray him like that?

You may not have understood him

and Jim sure as hell
didn't understand you

but Jim was your father.

It's been 40 years.

Get used to it.

- Is that it?
- That's it.

Well, we still have ten
minutes till close of business.

- One more to be sure?
- Hmm.

So, any allergies?

You know those miniature carrots?

Them.

That's quite common.

- And do you smoke?
- Oh, yeah. A pack a day.

Is that bad?

Wouldn't have thought so.

- Are you getting enough...
- No.

... sleep?

Yes.

So, how did the DNA test go?

Well, at the end of the
day, I didn't need to look.

Deep down, I've
always known the truth.

We may have been nothing
alike but... Jim was my father.

- You checked the results, didn't you?
- Of course.

- Negative.
- I knew it.

Are you really gonna leave
town if we hit the quota?

Well, I promised Mum
that I'd stick around

till the hospital was sorted, so...

Yeah, I guess I am.

Are you gonna miss us?

Did you?

I came back, didn't I?

6:00pm. Close of business.

Everyone come to present
your patient files for counting.

Shall we?

I'll be right there.

- Penny. Whoops.
- Thank you.

Melody...

Ah-ha. Just in time.

Drink?

I mean, it was supposed to
be a 15-year-old single malt

but instead we have $10 sparkling wine.

- Can't say no to that.
- Mmm.

Alright, Ken.

We're looking for 110 patients.

- What did we end up with?
- 101.

- But surely that's a mistake.
- It... It's not.

We failed.

But...

I mean, how is that possible?

I mean, we were on
track all day. It's just...

I mean, how has this happened, Ken, eh?

Look, um... surely it's close enough.

I mean, we are only nine patients short.

You know I can't give
you special treatment.

I'll have to present these
numbers to the board tomorrow.

Having any luck, mate?

Not really.

Shit.

Aren't you gonna say something?

I'm thinkin'.

You need advice. You
need an uplifting speech.

Hugh should be doing this.

- No, no. Please don't tell Hugh.
- OK.

- Promise?
- No... Alright. I won't.

How did you find me?

Tom said you might be there.

Bloody Tom.

Ajax, how much have you lost?

Everything.

I don't know what to say.

I mean, what would Hugh say?

Ajax, between the
bottles and the cocaine,

I too have had my troubles.

Not really, though, 'cause I'm a doctor.

I save lives.

Something, something, artificial heart.

Look,

I don't know what you're going through

but I do know that
the fix isn't gambling.

The world's a scary place. I get it.

Out there, you've got things to lose,

things that are worth more than money.

And if there's one thing
I do know for certain,

no matter what happens,
you've got family.

That means you're gonna be OK.

- Time to go home?
- Yeah.

Time to go home.

- Matt?
- Yeah?

- It's a good speech.
- Oh, thanks, mate.

When are you going back to the city?

Oh, I don't know, really.

Um, I've got a few
things to sort out first.

Maybe we should go to the
roller disco before you go.

I think I might be just a
bit too old for roller disco.

You can't be, 'cause that means I am.

You know, all these years away,

there have been times
when I've wondered...

what if I'd stayed?

What if you stayed? Then
what? We got married?

Lucky me. I would've
been wife number one.

If we'd got married, there
would've only been wife number one.

I've always had feelings for
you, Michael. You know that.

- But since Jim...
- Yep.

I understand.

I just don't think I'm
ready for that yet.

Maybe one day but I
just don't know when.

OK.

OK?

Hey.

Don't say anything.

You know I just want you to be happy.

That's all that's ever mattered.

If he's what makes you
happy, then... you should go.

I can't believe we failed.

- Tea?
- No.

I need wine. This is book club.

We always have wine.

Ken, easy.

Why? I have nothing else to live for.

The hospital's sunk
and it's all my fault.

I just don't understand.

It's not your fault, Ken.

I was there too. I was
sure we hit the numbers.

Well, who knows what happened, really?

Nevertheless, I'm afraid
there's nothing else for it.

I must humbly ask you
to accept my resignation.

You can't resign, Ken.

I'll pack up my desk in the morning.

Melody, I want you
to have my pencil cup.

I've got rid of some reports.

What?

You sabotaged the hospital?

No. Well, yes. Sort of.

I retract my resignation.
Melody, I'm keeping the cup.

I'm so sorry, Ken.

Apology not accepted.

You threw away our funding.

Our dream. The Speed File 2000.

- But why did you do it?
- I just...

No, there's nothing
you could possibly say.

What about us? Melody
can't get a raise now.

Hugh can't go to Sydney...

Oh. You're still in love with Hugh.

I'm not in love with him.

I just didn't want him to leave,

you know, because he's a friend.

I'm so sorry, Ken.

I will fix this, I promise.

Do you guys ever actually
talk about the book?

Oh, no. Not really.

You packed light.

I'm not coming with you.

I really wanted to.

But Ajax.

He's my family.

You don't give up on family.

Tom, I am so sorry.

Don't be sorry.

You deserve everything.

Goodbye, Hayley.

You didn't go with him?

No.

Does that mean everything's OK?

We can go back to normal?

No, Ajax. Everything is not OK.

You're really quiet. What's up?

- Nothing.
- No, no. No, something's up.

If this is about me saying
you're like Meryl the other day,

then I take it back.

You're nothing like Mum.

Are you happy?

What?

I think I'm gonna be mayor.

Well, if I never hear the word
'quota' again, it'll be too soon.

Oh, and about that, look,

don't be too hard on yourself.

I'm not being hard on myself.
It's not my fault Penny...

- Penny what?
- Nothing.

Look, I get it.

We didn't make it.

It'll be fine.

You're being very relaxed about this.

I thought you were going to
Sydney if we made the quota.

Yeah, I was, but...

I can't really do
anything about that now.

Oh, my God. You're relieved.

Why would I be relieved?

Because you don't actually want to go.

Morning. Great news. Penny
told me about the mistake.

What mistake?

With the patient files.

Some of them were misplaced.

Hugh, you met the quota.

Your hospital funding
will be reinstated.

Oh, that's, um... That's great.

And more importantly,
this means you can leave.

Right?

Yeah.

I guess I'm leaving.
