00:00The condition of the two young brothers injured in the police car chase is given as satisfactory.
00:06But doctors still aren't certain if Shane Ramsey, the young Olympic diving hope, will ever walk again.
00:13It should have been me.
00:16That's what we're both thinking, isn't it, Dad?
00:25Sure, any girl would be only too happy to have a guy like you.
00:28I'm not really interested in anything like that.
00:31Oh.
00:32Well, if you ever change your mind, I know one who could be interested.
00:35I won't be changing my mind.
00:39I mean, the boy was right.
00:42God help me.
00:44I did think it should have been him.
00:47You're a problem, Pear.
00:49You and your young brother.
00:50It's as though neither of you wants to get well.
00:53What's wrong with Danny?
00:54We haven't bothered you with it until now.
00:56But he's not making progress.
00:59He won't eat and he's blaming himself for your accident.
01:13It's wonderful.
01:15Max.
01:16They said he'll get all the movement back.
01:19Yeah.
01:19Yeah.
01:20Oh, Max.
01:22Oh, face it, Maria.
01:25Shane's not all right.
01:26His career's ruined.
01:27We both know that.
01:28Can I come in?
01:30Of course, Scott.
01:34Grant said it's okay if I go and see Danny again, if it's all right with you.
01:38And what about school?
01:39I got all the kids to sign a card.
01:41Did you say I could take it in?
01:43Huh.
01:43Smart.
01:44Yeah.
01:45Well, see ya.
01:46Yeah.
01:47Listen, I'd better be going too, love.
01:49Way behind with me, Jobs.
01:50Are you going to see the boys today?
01:52You're going, aren't you?
01:54Max.
01:54Danny needs to talk to you.
01:56Look.
01:57I told you, I'm way behind.
01:59Is that what I tell him?
02:01That you're too busy?
02:08I'd have thought the good news about your brother would have given you an appetite, young nanny.
02:13I'm just not hungry.
02:15Hmm.
02:15I'll see what the doctor has to say about that.
02:21She's nice.
02:23She's okay.
02:24Here it's from school.
02:28I haven't got that nerd Simpson to sign it.
02:31Yeah.
02:33I've been thinking, you know, about taking off when you get out of here.
02:37You didn't tell anyone.
02:38No, but I don't reckon it's such a good idea.
02:41I thought you'd get cold feet.
02:43I've tried it once before, remember?
02:45With that dumb girl.
02:47This would be different.
02:48Kim isn't dumb.
02:50Who needs you?
02:53How would your mum feel?
02:55I know how my old man feels.
02:57That's bad enough.
02:59Think about it, Danny.
03:01If you tell anyone, I'll punch your face in.
03:04I won't tell anyone.
03:08You're worse than Lucy.
03:10Hmm.
03:10Pastes good.
03:11I'm making it for Danny, but whether he leads it or not, I don't know.
03:15You know, I think I know what's bugging him.
03:16What?
03:18Well, Danny runs a very bad second with Max, and he knows her.
03:22Well, he's not the easiest boy in the world to handle.
03:25Mind you, you weren't exactly an angel at 16, either.
03:28And look what a stunner I turned into.
03:31Ah!
03:34You know, Graham, sometimes I wished I could just chuck Ingenera.
03:39It's never too late.
03:41Yeah, I know.
03:42But Dad's worked hard to keep me at uni.
03:44You know he's got his heart set on getting me into the firm.
03:46Still your life.
03:48Yeah, sure.
03:50Sure.
03:51I might go and see if Daphne wants to come to the hospital or something.
03:53Good idea.
03:54Helen.
03:55Come in, Maria.
03:57I'll see you back later.
03:59No, love.
04:00I finally remembered to pay you back.
04:02Oh, you needn't have worried.
04:04Time for a cuppa?
04:05I'll have one.
04:07Has Max said anything to Jim about Danny?
04:11Not that I know of.
04:14You're very worried about him, aren't you?
04:16I'm very frightened, Helen.
04:18It's as if Danny doesn't want to go on living.
04:28How's that?
04:30Great.
04:33I know you're disappointed about the diving, Dad.
04:35So am I.
04:37But there's lots of things I can still do now.
04:40Yeah, sure.
04:42For a while there, I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life flat on my back.
04:46Yeah, we all did, son.
04:48Have you seen Danny?
04:50Not today.
04:52I thought once he had the good news, he wouldn't wait to come and see me.
04:55Yeah, well, they got him hooked up to some sort of drip thing.
05:00You've got to make him understand, Dad.
05:02It wasn't his fault.
05:04That guy that robbed the bank could have taken off in any direction.
05:07He just got unlucky.
05:08Yeah, yeah, well, listen, I'd better get a move on.
05:12I haven't got too many jobs done lately.
05:15You'll drop it on Danny.
05:17Yeah, well, young Scott saw him early and your mother's coming in later.
05:22The van's playing up on top of everything else.
05:26Take it easy, Dad, you know?
05:29Sure.
05:31See you later, son.
05:40If you wouldn't eat breakfast, how about lunch?
05:43Look, your favourite, banana custard, and Helen sent some lovely cakes.
05:50Thanks, Mum.
05:52You're lucky they've got here.
05:55Scott and Lucy would have eaten the lot if they could.
05:58Just one.
06:00Maybe Shane will eat them.
06:03Shane's eating.
06:05You are the one I'm worried about, Danny.
06:10Have you and your father been yelling at each other again?
06:14I haven't seen him today.
06:16He's got some urgent jobs to do.
06:23Look, he's very upset about both of you.
06:27But he loves you, Danny.
06:28You must believe that.
06:30He never did.
06:32Oh, no, he never will.
06:35You're spoiling Des Rodney, you know that.
06:37Want to make me a better proposition?
06:39How's Julie?
06:41Ah, she seems okay.
06:42She said she'd go back to work tomorrow.
06:43I think I'd pass out on the spot if someone stuck a gun in my face.
06:46You?
06:47You would have grabbed a gun and belted the bloke senseless.
06:49So much for my feminine charms.
06:51Listen, do you want to come to the hospital with me this hour?
06:53Oh, I've got a lot to do.
06:56You heard about Shane?
06:57Yeah, terrific.
06:59He's going to be disappointed.
07:01I doubt it.
07:02Give my love to Danny.
07:04And Shane?
07:06Suit yourself.
07:07Well, listen, I'll see you later.
07:10Now, St. Grant always scrubs the kitchen floor when she's depressed.
07:15Why don't you give it a try?
07:23Sure there's nothing else you want me to bring in?
07:26No, thanks, Mum.
07:28Dad's still pretty depressed.
07:30You saw him today?
07:31Yes.
07:33Oh, don't worry, Mum.
07:34Look, Danny will be all right.
07:35He's just had a bad fright.
07:37Yes.
07:39OK, bye, Daddy.
07:41Bye, Mum.
07:48Laurie?
07:49Mm-hm?
07:50Do you think you could do me a really big favour?
07:53Try me.
08:09Hi, Squirt.
08:10Hi, Squirt.
08:15So you're on a hunger strike?
08:17No, I'm not.
08:19Desmissible?
08:22I'm sorry, Shane.
08:23It was my fault.
08:25Ah, bull.
08:26It was the creep who robbed the bank.
08:28How could it be your fault?
08:29If I hadn't made you drive me to the beach then...
08:32Oh, come off it, will you?
08:33Look, you're carrying on like an old woman.
08:36I thought you could help me.
08:38Help you?
08:40How?
08:42Well, when you were in trouble, you got me to bail you out, remember?
08:47Now it's your turn.
08:49How do you mean?
08:51I need to get away for a while.
08:53I need time to sort myself out.
08:55So?
08:56So I thought we could take off.
08:58Go camping.
09:00You mean you and me?
09:02Why not you and me?
09:04Will you do it?
09:05Yeah, sure.
09:09I just went to visit you and found an empty bed.
09:11It scared the hell out of me.
09:12Oh, I needed to talk to Danny for a while.
09:15We're going camping.
09:16Yeah?
09:16Fantastic.
09:17I wish I could come too.
09:19Want one of your grandmother's cakes?
09:21Why do you think I don't leave home, eh?
09:23Well, listen, Daphne sends her love too, Danny.
09:25You missed out.
09:27Win some, lose some.
09:29Now, Squirt, where shall we go?
09:32I don't know.
09:33You decide.
09:35Okay.
09:36And while I'm deciding, you open up your mouth.
09:39I'm going to treat you as a chef.
09:47I'm not going to be able to eat it.
09:51I'm going to eat it.
09:58Come on, where are you?
10:00I don't know.
10:04No.
10:07There we are, Jacinta. Thank you.
10:10Well, I've checked Mr. Drews' book. There's no mistake.
10:13Okay. Death.
10:16That man's been in school and he's making me nervous.
10:19Well, listen, I can understand you being jumpy after what happened.
10:25Well, he's pretty harmless to me.
10:27Oh, I don't think so.
10:28He stands there, fills him paying slips, crumples him up, then walks out.
10:32He doesn't pay in?
10:33No. I think he's checking on the light at the back.
10:36See?
10:41Hmm. I'll keep an eye on him.
10:49Well, the tomatoes are in.
10:51It might be a bit late for them, though, with the weather.
10:53Well, I hope you didn't plant them too close together.
10:56They're too difficult to pick.
10:58You are an optimist, aren't you?
11:00How'd you get away so early?
11:02Simple. I just hopped in the car and drove away.
11:05Got a bit slack at the moment.
11:07Ah, just the man I wanted to see.
11:08Listen, mate, I just got an urgent call.
11:10A blasted van won't start.
11:12You got your jumper leads, Andy?
11:13Yeah, they're in the boot.
11:14Right.
11:15Good news about Shane, Max.
11:17Oh, yeah, yeah.
11:19Scott says Danny's still a bit down.
11:21Seen the boys today?
11:23No, not today.
11:24I saw Shane yesterday.
11:27Maria visited Danny.
11:30I'll help you.
11:31Oh, tell him.
11:41It's the first time I've been brave enough to come into the bank since you were held up.
11:45Weren't you terrified?
11:46Yes, I was.
11:50There we are.
11:51Well, see you next week.
11:57Dear, is that man a fuck again?
11:59Are you sure it's the same guy?
12:00Positive.
12:01Look, he's up to something.
12:02I know it.
12:03Okay, I'll call the police.
12:09He's gone.
12:10It's okay.
12:10You can still give the police a description.
12:14I don't wish to see you destroyed.
12:16Don't worry.
12:17The superlady?
12:18Yes, good thing, sir.
12:20That's what you think, E-Man.
12:23Oh, no, gather your warriors.
12:25Here you go, E-Man, a little surprise of our own.
12:29Perhaps you'd better not go in tomorrow, baby.
12:31Surely anybody with a brain in their head wouldn't plan to rob a bank which has just had a robbery.
12:35No, but it might be best to play it safe and wait till the police have checked this fellow out,
12:38eh?
12:39Oh, where and when is all this crime going to end?
12:42I wish I knew the answer, Mum.
12:45Look, I think I'll have a hot bath.
12:47Good idea.
12:48We won't be eating till about 7.30.
12:50Paul's going to be late.
12:52Again?
12:53Oh, look, honestly, he ought to have more consideration for the rest of us.
12:57Oh!
13:01He's still a bit nervy.
13:05You think maybe she should change a job?
13:08Well, perhaps she's not the only one who'd like a change.
13:11Oh, thinking of handing in our notice, are we?
13:12No, I mean Paul.
13:14Oh, he's doing very well.
13:15His heart's not in engineering.
13:17Well, he should have thought about that a long time ago, Mum.
13:20Besides, I'd like to see him have a bit of security behind him.
13:22But is that the most important thing to him?
13:26No, the most important thing is a good relationship.
13:28But when Anne died, I was very grateful to have my career to turn to.
13:33And to help support the kids.
13:35Yes, I know.
13:37Well, he can talk to me.
13:38Mm, of course.
13:40Dad, it's rolling again.
13:43All right, honey.
13:44I'll have to have that thing checked.
13:46I'll have a look at the aerial.
13:47I'll have to have a look at the aerial.
14:01Hi.
14:02Hi.
14:05Black day at the bank?
14:06Yeah.
14:07There's another guy hanging around.
14:09Julie's really freaked out about it.
14:11Who's surprised?
14:12Call the police, for God's sake.
14:13I did.
14:15They're going to keep an eye on him.
14:16I've got a dash.
14:18I've got two jobs tonight.
14:19Oh, I see.
14:21So where will you be sleeping?
14:22Or don't you know yet?
14:24Yes, Des, I do know.
14:26Joke choice.
14:29Your dinner's in the oven.
14:30When the bell rings, it's ready.
14:32Don't frown like that, Daphne.
14:33You'll get wrinkles.
14:34Then where will you be?
14:35Look, if you've decided I'm an unsuitable tenant,
14:38just say so.
14:39I'll pack up and go.
14:40Sometimes you're just so touchy.
14:42Most times you are very irritating.
14:47Are we going to have a real ding-dong bust-up?
14:49Nope.
14:51I've had enough bust-ups to last me a lifetime.
15:20Maria?
15:24Hello there, can I help you?
15:30You're Anna.
15:33Jim Robinson.
15:35So you're Jim Robinson.
15:37How do you do?
15:37Hi.
15:39Max is on a job, but Maria should be back shortly.
15:41And how are the boys?
15:43Oh, they're going to be fine.
15:44I was frantic when Maria called me about the accident.
15:47I came down here as soon as I could.
15:48Yes, I can imagine.
15:49Listen, until I get back, would you like to wait at our place?
15:52Oh.
15:53Well, if you're sure, it's not inconvenient.
15:55It's fine.
15:57You recognised me?
15:59From the photograph.
16:01Ah.
16:01But I must make sure Max gets a new camera.
16:04Now, don't do you justice.
16:10Watch out for Maria.
16:12Sorry we have to entertain in the kitchen,
16:14but Lucy always watches TV at this time,
16:15and I have to keep an eye on the dinner.
16:17The kitchen's always the nicest part of the house anyway.
16:19At least I think so.
16:20Me too.
16:21Maybe it's because we have to spend so much time in it.
16:23Yes.
16:24Shane and Danny were pleased to see you.
16:28I should have followed the flight details,
16:29but I'm afraid I panicked.
16:31That's understandable.
16:33I expect Danny's grown quite a bit now.
16:36Max and Maria didn't bring the boys up when they came up for Mama's funeral,
16:38so it's nearly two years since I saw him.
16:41He's a bright kid, that one.
16:43He yells a lot, like Max, but he's a good kid.
16:49You nursed your mother for a while?
16:51Yes.
16:51I didn't want her to spend what little time she had left in the hospital with strangers.
16:55Just the same.
16:56It couldn't have been easy.
16:58It was my choice.
16:59And Max, as always, was wonderfully generous.
17:02She's home.
17:03Oh.
17:04I'll walk you over if you like.
17:05Thank you, Scott.
17:06And thank you very much for the coffee and the company.
17:09I hope we'll see a lot more of you now you're here.
17:11Yes, indeed.
17:12Thanks again.
17:16Cut out by my own son.
17:18She's a very beautiful woman.
17:21Yes.
17:25Oh, I'm so glad you came.
17:27Oh, I should have phoned.
17:29You're here.
17:30Boys will be thrilled to see you.
17:32Oh, how are they really?
17:34It was bad for Shane for a while, but he's going to be all right.
17:39No more diving.
17:40Oh.
17:41Well, it's not the end of the world for him.
17:43Poor Max.
17:44Yes.
17:45He had such dreams.
17:47But it's Danny I'm worried about.
17:49He doesn't want to eat.
17:51I'll fix that.
17:54Oh.
17:59Hello, Mum.
18:00Hello, Daddy.
18:04Auntie Anna!
18:05They didn't tell me you were coming.
18:07Try and keep me away.
18:10That you eating.
18:11Well, I finished your custard, as well as what they gave me.
18:15Have you seen Shane?
18:16I wanted to check you out first.
18:18They brought him in to see me.
18:20We're going camping.
18:21If Dad lets us.
18:24If the doctor says you can go, your father will say yes, too.
18:27You think so?
18:29Oh, why don't you leave that to your mum?
18:33Do you think you could bring me something to eat tomorrow, Mum?
18:35The foodie is terrible.
18:37How would you know you wouldn't eat it?
18:39I just did.
18:41All right.
18:42Your dad can bring it tomorrow.
18:43He'll be too busy.
18:46Auntie Anna could bring it.
18:47Sure.
18:48I might even help you eat it.
18:52Listen.
18:54I'd like you to forget about what I said the other night, OK?
18:57OK, Max.
18:58But, Max, Danny's a nice kid.
19:00The problem is he's a chip off the old block.
19:02You're a bit too much alike.
19:04Probably having a beer with Jim.
19:06You see?
19:07Anna!
19:08Oh, hello, Max.
19:08Good to see you.
19:11Hello again.
19:12Max.
19:14Danny's eating.
19:15Everything in sight.
19:16Well, that is good news, isn't it?
19:17Yeah, great.
19:18Must have been a banana custard.
19:19Shane talked to him.
19:20That's what did it.
19:21Shane looks fine, too.
19:22Yeah, yeah, he does.
19:24You like a beer, Anna?
19:25Not just now, thanks.
19:26I'll check the dinner.
19:27I'm better going to move on.
19:29Hey, you haven't finished your beer.
19:30Stay and eat with us, Jim.
19:32Yeah, I'll open a bottle of red.
19:33We've got something to celebrate now.
19:35Anna's here.
19:35And now we know both the boys are going to be all right.
19:39Well, look, I'd love to, but my life wouldn't be worth living if I upset the family routine.
19:43Oh, Maria won't let me open the red if you're not here.
19:45That's right.
19:47Oh, all right.
19:47I'll just go next door and tell Helen.
19:49Bring her.
19:49It's easier.
19:51All right.
19:58You know, I haven't really got an excuse to stay now.
20:00The boys are all right.
20:03But there is no hurry, is there?
20:05It's been such a long time since we've been together.
20:08Oh, I know.
20:10But I have to get back, and you don't really need me.
20:15But I do.
20:21What's wrong, Maria?
20:24Max.
