Packed to the Rafters (2008–2013): Season 5, Episode 11 - The Right Time - full transcript

When's the right time?

Mother Nature always knows.

When to grow,
when to flower, give fruit.

If only it was that easy
for the rest of us.

Oi, Benno, beer o'clock?

It's five minutes past.

-Hey, it's looking all right.
-Mm.

I finally found something
I'm good at other than

pulling beers
and annoying Donna.

Hey, mate, keep this up
then we can start

saving ourselves some bucks.



Hey, uh, seriously,

do you reckon
we could grow some bananas?

-Hey, boys.
-Oh.

Hello, beautiful.

-You'd know.
-Know what?

Bananas. You reckon
we can grow some here?

Ah, they, grow in clusters
about six meters high.

I don't think
you'd have the space.

Ah, right.

Besides, they're not trees
at all, they're herbs.

-Bananas?
-Yeah.

Hey, I've got
to show you something.

-Ben.
-Back in a tick.

Isn't it a bit early for this?



Dun, dun, dun, dun,
dun, dun, dun, dun.

What?

Off the TAFE site.

You can finish
your course online.

-And the farm--
-Oh, it's a farm now, is it?

All right.
Market garden. Whatever.

Counts towards your marks
like a project.

And there's another thing.

Scallions.

There's a big demand for them.

You have been busy.

Yeah, and check this out.

A loan application.

What?

You're still into this?

-Well, yes, but...
-But what?

Ah, shouldn't we,
I don't know...

Talk to my lecturer?
See how much she's asking?

Already did. She loves you.
Teacher's pet.

It's a done deal
if we get the loan.

But what if we don't?

Well, we'll find out tomorrow.

That's when
the appointment is.

Ben, I don't have my half
of the deposit sorted.

Yeah, I already told you,

the insurance money,
there's heaps.

Well, that's your money.

Being invested in our future.

What's wrong?
We said we wanted this.

Oh, I just didn't expect us
to go ahead this fast.

When you say "herb",
do you mean like mint?

All good in the hood?

Is that a yes?

- Okay.
-Is it? Yes?

-Yes! Yeah!
- Yes, yes!

-Did you just--
- No.

-No.
-Oh, I'm sorry.

-Should we tell him?
-Not yet.

There's other people
to tell first.

How much are they asking?

Actually it's all done.

I've made an offer
and they've accepted.

Oh, so your loan's been
approved?

No, not yet, but it will be.

Mel's insurance money's
a fair deposit so...

Well, hang on,
you've made an offer

before your loan's
been approved?

You haven't paid them in
advance or anything, have you?

-No, not yet.
-Good.

Oh, thanks for the vote
of confidence.

No, darling,
it's a big investment.

We just want to make sure you
go about things the right way.

Mom, it's happening.

We just want to make sure
that you're both happy for us.

Well, if your heart's set
on it...

It is.

Then we're happy for you.

Might even fix up your wiring.

Thank you.

You're the best.

The time was right.

I was sure of it.

A huge commitment.

Well, we're the ones
who've been on his case

-to invest in something.
-Mm.

And if he falls,
we'll be there to catch him

-like we always have.
-Will we?

Yeah.

We've just been through
a bumpy patch, that's all.

Come on.
You and me are like...

swans.

What's football
got to do with this?

-No swans, the birds.
-Oh.

So we're an endangered
species?

No. No, we mate for life.

Oh.

And major brownie points,
by the way.

What for?

The way you took Ben's news.

Oh, what'd you expect?

-Oh, Mom, please.

And I suppose
this was all your idea?

Ah, well...

No, we made
the decision together.

Ah, well, if the decision's
already been made...

Mom, it's not like that.

It's what we want to do
and it's not that far.

We'll visit
and you can visit us,

have weekends in the country.

It's a beautiful place.
You'd love it.

Wouldn't she, Ben?

Yeah, there's trees,
fresh air and...

-goats.

-Oh, Mom.
-I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

I'm very happy for you.

It sounds idyllic.

Perhaps I should just go
and pop the kettle on.

- Weekends?
-Oh, come on.

It's not like
she'll be around all the time.

Weekends'd be lovely.

In the country.

With goats.

Oh, Mom.

So far so good.

Ah, you've still
got to tell Carbo.

Ah, no probs.

If I'm happy, he's happy.

-No, no, no, no, no, no!
-Carbo!

Come on, you knew
we were thinking about it.

Oh, yeah, and I've thought
about getting my chest waxed.

-Really? When?
-About a month back.

It was just a thought.

Anyway, the point is,

it was a dumb idea
just like this.

We're not the only ones
moving on.

I'm not going anywhere.

In fact, if you want to grow
more vegies in the yard...

That's not what I meant.

Yeah, you're going
to be a dad soon.

In like, a year.

Six months actually.

See? Ages?

Although, they say your first
is usually late,

so maybe like, six and a bit.

And that's pretty soon.

Come on, this is a great
opportunity for us.

Yeah, it is.

But I am going to miss our
games nights like charades.

Oh, me too.

But we'll make up for it,
hit the town.

Yeah, only when
I can drink again.

Carbo.

You're still my best mate.

It won't be the same.

For some people,
it's never the right time.

So when Emma went to London,
I put on five kilos.

You are not being selfish.

I'm not very good company
though, am I?

Don't be silly.

I'll tell you what.

Are you working
tomorrow night?

-Mm-mm.
-Well, what about we grab

an early dinner and a movie?

-Mm.
-My shout.

So, how are you anyway?

Oh, I can't complain.

I've been reading
some stuff online.

Yeah, after what you said
about me forgetting things...

Oh, Ted forget what I said.

I mean, not that you
necessarily would forget.

I- I-- I'm just being, um...

-Concerned?
-Yes.

-But you were right.
-Mm-hmm.

Well, there were a couple
of weird things that happened,

you know, silly things,
so I went online.

-And?
-Oh, it's not me,

all that stuff
they were talking about.

You know, mood swings,
errors of judgment,

it's not me.

I've just had a lot
on my mind, that's all

and I just wanted you
to know that

as a concerned friend.

Chip?

I won't tell if you don't.

All right.

-Hello?
-Oh, sweetheart.

I heard about your big news.
Congratulations.

Oh, thanks.

Mom's still getting
used to the idea.

Oh, I just
didn't see it coming.

- Oh.
-Oh.

Oi, Matty,
what time are you on?

-9:00.
- Oh, warm up band.

Hey, buddy,
if you don't want to come...

Oi, look, Matt, it's okay.

I'll speak to Sian.

-Are you coming?
-Yeah, course I am.

Sweet.

-So, all packed up?
-Yeah, ready to roll.

Ah-ah, hey, hey,
what about that lot?

They're not going
to wash themselves.

Oh, um, I'll do that.

What? Since when?

Well, since it's my turn.

Hey, yeah,
no arguments from us.

It's all right. Let's head.
We'll see you at ours, Frankie.

-Yep.
-Bye.

See you.

Um, hey, hey, Julie?

I just wanted
to say thank you.

What for?

For giving me my job back.

Well, Dave did that, not me.

Well, he said
it was your idea.

Well, there's no point
in making these things

bigger than they are.

Well,
I just wanted you to know

I'm seriously grateful.

Okay. I'll leave you to it.

Sure.

Sorry, guys, can't find
my Cold Chisel t-shirt.

Oh...

Well, can't you wear
something else?

No, it's my lucky one.

Yeah,
Jimmy Barnes hurled on it.

-Yeah, hilarious. Hey, where...

-Where did you get that?
-What? In the laundry basket.

Off. Now.

-Oh, woah.
-What?

Well, I can't wear this.

Come on,
let's get some clean ones.

-Showtime.
-Hey.

Oi, oi.

Hey. Are they ready yet?

Not yet. Fashion crisis.

How are things at work?

Yeah, good.

-Coby?
-Cool.

Julie?

What?

Hey, you two. We off?

Yeah. Do you guys want to
pile into my car?

Actually we thought
we might stay in tonight.

Ah, a quiet night in.
Got to love that.

Sian and Jake are going
to rock the house.

Oh, dream on, Cobes.

Oi, has anyone
got any shampoo?

Yeah, I brought
some you can have.

There's a right time
with relationships too,

when staying home
is all you need.

So, it looks like
it's just you and me.

Looks like it.

-In the moshpit.
-Yeah. Let's go.

And when just
being friends is cool too.

Is that the last piece
of toast?

It's yours.

Thanks.

We should be going.

Oh, we've got heaps of time.

-You right there?
-It's for the ultrasound.

Lots of water they, said.

I know it sounds crazy
but I haven't felt like this

since I sat
my year twelve exams.

Well, it's not a test.

A pretty awesome
moment though,

the first time
you get to see your baby.

Yeah. Hey, do you want
to come with us?

Mm. Carbo, not that
it wouldn't be lovely but...

See?
Retta said it'd be lovely.

-Nah.
-Well, why not?

-I'm probably not allowed.
-Hey, it's our baby.

-Yeah, it's a family thing.
- Mm-hmm.

Oh, Benno,
you're not family, eh?

-Uncle Benno.
-Look, honey,

if he doesn't want to then...

Come on, then do it for me.

Look, it'd mean a lot
to have my best mate there.

Come on. Come on.

Hey, Benno, last chance.

Mate, I already told you.
I'm waiting over there.

No, the doc said you're allowed
in there with us.

That'd just be weird. Go.

Ben?

I thought it was you.

-Sorry, do I--
-Kirsten.

I used to work with Mel.

Oh.

Okay.

-How are you going?
-Yeah, okay.

What about you?

Good. Getting there.

Just waiting for a mate.

The first ultrasound.

It's a big day.

We all miss her.
She was one of a kind.

Yeah.

Well, well, take care.

You too.

Hi. I just got
your message. What's up?

You've got it bad
at the moment, haven't you?

♪ When I'm weary and tired ♪

♪ When I'm far from home ♪

♪ I think of you in the rain ♪

♪ And I kiss you ♪

♪ I can't build you a castle ♪

♪ I can't buy you a ring
I can't see you tonight... ♪

I had been so sure
it was the right time

to move on, to start again.

♪ Now it's raining ♪

Now I wasn't sure at all.

♪ I think I'll go inside ♪

I'm busting.

I really want
to enjoy this moment

but I drank a lot of water.

There we go.

Oh, my God.

That's him?

Or her.

See there?
That's the heartbeat.

For real?

Do you want to hear it?

Yeah.

Wow.

Big head.

The brain develops early.

This all looks
perfectly normal.

So when exactly
can you tell the sex?

Not for another few weeks.

Is that right?

Can you believe it?

We made that.

The two of us.

Three of us now.

Hey, Benno.

Hey. How'd you go?

Awesome.
Like, suddenly it's all real.

Yeah,
like an actual human being,

-so small but growing.
-Yeah.

-Hey, you want to see?
-Yeah, he took a video.

-Yeah.
-Sure.

Okay.

Oh, wow.

That's the heartbeat there.

We don't know the sex yet
but...

that's not
'til halfway through.

But it's healthy?

We were worried
about the size of the head.

Carbo, she's perfect.

You're right.

He's perfect.

-Congrats, guys.
-Yeah.

You and Emma have to come back
to town for the birth, yeah?

If they, go.

-Carbo...
-Shall we head back?

Yeah.

Look at him.

How'd you go?

Yeah, sweet as.

Even quoted them
on the lighting the garden.

The customer
was putty in his hands.

Yeah. It must be all that
sleep you've been getting.

Oh, for the last time,
we were watching TV.

Oh, right,
there's a new name for it.

You'll be sharing
toothbrushes next.

Hey, can I just grab
those accounts?

-Yeah, sure.
-Thanks.

It's okay, guys.
I'll put that away.

You just grab the rest
of the stuff out of the van.

Right.

At least
I didn't drop my guts.

Yeah, you're a class act.

Julie, if this is too hard...

Oh I, I don't want
to talk about it.

Look, rehiring Frankie
was your idea.

Yeah, and you just had
to share that with her,

didn't you?
She mentioned it yesterday

when she thanked me
for getting her job back.

I thought that she should know
that you've moved on,

-that we've moved on.

-Haven't we?

Hello?

Oh, Adam, hi.

No, no, now's good.

Ah, today?

Oh, I've been
on the phone to Donna again.

You'd think Ben and Emma
were moving to the moon.

Oh, come on,
it can't be that bad.

Everything all right?

-Yeah.
- No, I can't.

Next time? Great, thanks.

Restaurant write up.
Early evening special.

Debbie had to pull out.

I said I was too busy.

Well, call him back.

Tell him you'll do it.

With me.

Got to grab these perks
when you can.

It's been awhile
since you and I went out.

Just the two of us.

What about Ruby?

-Ted?
-Yeah?

-Could you?
-No problem.

Ben, it's Emma again.

Are you coming or...

Forget it.
I'll see you at your place.

Yeah! Look! Hey, Ben!

Hello? Earth to Benno.

-What?
- A strike!

Oh. Good one.

Score?

Uh, you're ahead by 30.

Hey, you're a bit
off your game today, mate.

Ah, it's not over yet.

Ah, reset.

-Oh, hi.
-Ben, if you want a loan,

you kind of have to show up
at the bank.

Oh, my God.

I am so sorry.

He drove us to the ultrasound
and then we came home

and I talked him
into a rematch.

Sorry, Emma, it was my fault.

Where's your phone?

Uh...

It's in the car.

I am so sorry.

Seriously. I...

I don't know
where my head's at. I'll...

I'll reschedule.

Hey, do you want
to see our baby?

Yeah, of course.

-How many weeks now?
-Twelve.

-Wow, that's amazing.
-Yeah.

Great. I'll see you then.

Thank you. Bye.

Ah, the bank
appointment's rescheduled.

-10:00 a.m. tomorrow.
-What happened?

I don't know. I...

I forgot.

Is everything okay?

Yeah, yeah, it's fine.

It's just, um...

Hey, guys,
Carbo's had a brainwave.

Touch footy in the park.

-Today?
-Yeah.

After the others knock off.

-Up to Em.
-I've never played.

That's okay. We can teach you.
It's fully chick friendly.

I can give it a go.

Awesome. Shall I call Jake
and the others

and maybe make
an evening of it?

-Sure.
-Brilliant.

-Hey, hey, what'd they say?
-Touch footy's a go.

How exciting!

My evil plan is working.

Operation Make Ben Stay.

If I show him how much fun
he'll miss out on,

he'll never want to leave.

Hey, mate, feel like
rounding up the others

for a bit of touch footy?

Awesome.

-Oh, Donna, hi. Come in.
-Hi.

-I'm here to see Ted.
-Ah. Dad. Donna's here.

Donna.

What brings you here, mate?

Well, aren't we
getting a bite to eat

and going to see a movie?

I don't think so.

Are we?

Oh, sorry.

I must've got
my wires crossed.

Well, you can always eat here,

so long as you don't mind
babysitting Ruby with me.

Yeah.
Dave and I are eating out.

Well, that's nice.

Oh, just a restaurant write up
for the paper.

-Oh, that'll be him.

Better be going.

Enjoy your evening.

You enjoy yours.

Thanks, Dad.

They're getting there.

At least I hope so.

Come on through.

Oh, hello there!

Benvenuto.

Oh.

Do you have a reservation?

Ah, yes. Rafter.

Oh. From the paper?

Yes, yes, of course.
Mr. Goodman phoned.

Please, please, this way.

-Oh.

For you,
the best table of the house.

Ah, now, would you care
for some wine?

-Um...
-Chianti?

-I beg your pardon?
-I'm sorry?

Chianti?

-Oh...
-Oh, wine.

Yeah, yeah, uh, sure,
yeah, sure.

I shall bring a carafe.

A "fiasco" in Italian.

I hope it's not a fiasco
in English.

Yeah...

♪ You might have
Some years on me ♪

♪ But that don't
Mean anything ♪

♪ You might have
Some years on... ♪

Benno! Benno!

Hey!

-Yay!
-Benno!

-Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
-Yay!

All right, half time!

Mate, you're real well
at defense today,

aren't you, Benno?

Shut up. I'm playing okay.

Oh, you right?
You need your zimmer frame?

-Oh!
-Ow.

-Yeah, you big wuss.
-Ow.

Is everything okay?

Yeah,
he's having a great time.

-Beer?
-Yes. A jug please.

I'll go one.

Yeah, I'll go three.

All right, beers
all 'round then.

Whoa!

You're not
having second thoughts?

-About what?
-The cottage.

Of course not.

So what was it you wanted
to tell me before?

You know, back at your place
in the kitchen.

Oh, just forget it.

It wasn't important.

You'd tell me if you were?

Emma, I want this so much.

More than you know.

Wait.

Excuse me, everyone.

Emma and I have some news.

We're moving away from Sydney.

We're buying a little place
in the country

and we're moving away.

Since when?

Since we went and stayed there
and saw how awesome it is.

Yeah, well,
what about touch footy?

What about chook bowling?

-Carbo.
-What about your bank loan?

We'll get the bank loan.

It's a beautiful
little cottage in the country

and you're all welcome to come
and stay, so what do we reckon?

Well, congratulations.

-That is great news.
-Very grown up.

Now we know people
with a country cottage.

So if you'd all like
to raise your beers

and your glasses
and toast to the future

and to the woman I'm going
to be sharing it with.

-To Emma.
-To Emma.

-To Emma.
-Here, here.

To Emma.

There might never be
a right time,

so why not just do it now?

Oh. That was terrible.

Oh I've had worse.

All right, maybe not.

I wonder how long
they've been married?

Who says they are?

I don't want
to end up like that.

Neither do I.

So how did we get to this?

To what?

We're here, aren't we?
We're talking?

Yeah, but at each other,
not with each other, not lately.

Look...

we've always lived
our lives through our kids.

Yeah, so what happens
when the kids

are off living their lives?

What happens to us?

-We become strangers?
-No.

Are the kids the glue?

No.

There's a gap to fill,
you know,

I mean, you
with your writing and...

You?

With you.

My life with you.

You know...

a world without you in it...

is a world I can't,
I can't even imagine.

Swans.

Yeah.

We won't wind up like them.
We won't let it happen.

We've got some good years
ahead of us, the best years.

You know, we've just got to put
what happened behind us

and, and move forward.

How am I going to write
about this place?

They're advertisers.

Just focus on the ambience.

-Oh.

Cassata?

Sure.

Scallions?
No, never heard of them.

-What about spring onions?
-No.

Shallots?

Mate, anything
that's not served on a plate

or in a takeaway container,
I've got no idea.

Yeah, I can vouch for that.

Yeah, I don't know why you're
moving to the country anyway.

Oh, fresh air, starry nights,
room to stretch out.

Oh, it sounds like heaven.

Oh, that is a stock
city kid answer.

Do you know what they
really have in the country?

-Nothing.

Cobes,
stop being such a wet blanket.

No! They, need to know.

I grew up there. It's boring.

Well, we won't be bored,
will we?

No, well, you'll have
your onions.

Oi.

You going to miss these guys
when they're gone?

Yeah, we will.

No, we'll be right.
No one to play with.

Yeah, no one to get
on the grog with.

No one to play
chook bowling with.

Actually, me and Retta
have news, too.

Whoa, Carbo no.

-No we can tell them.
-Tell us what?

We said we'd wait.

Never mind.

-Hey, you're not, are you?
-Not what?

-Knocked up.
-Hey.

Ah, in the family way.

- Are you?
-You are, aren't you?

No way!

Yeah, okay, me and Retta
are knocked up!

-Whoo!

-That's awesome!
-Yeah.

-How far?
-Just 12 weeks.

-Congratulations, guys.
- Whoo!

I think another toast
is in order.

To Carbo and Retta
and the baby, Carbo-Retta.

To Carbo-Retta!

Cheers. Yep.

Hip-hip.

Whoo!

To new beginnings.

To new beginnings.

Not in the water.

What a clever girl.

-Ted?
-Yeah, mate.

That website you went on...

What about it?

Was there a test
that you could take?

I... I told you,
I don't need one.

What about today?

What about it?

Well, you forgot, didn't you?

Forgot what?

We had a date.

Dinner, and a movie.

That's why I came around.

You invited me yesterday.

It must've slipped my mind.

Shouldn't you at least talk
to Julie about it?

Has she said something?

No.

I just don't like
to keep secrets.

No secrets to keep.

Well, if you got tested
then you'd know for sure.

Oh, how can you get
ice cream wrong?

Something tells me
this is his first restaurant.

A late career change.

Yeah, I don't think
he's Italian either.

No.

So, where do you see us
in ten years' time?

Retired?

Try 20.

Mm-hmm.

Maybe that's what this is,
the midlife thing.

Yeah, maybe.

Does getting old scare you?

No.

-Not if it's with you.
-Oh.

Mm-hmm. No, I reckon it's time
to take up some hobbies.

Like what?

Well, what ever happened
to Latin dance classes?

Probably
my convenient back injury.

No, no, Ben had a crisis
and I cancelled.

-Oh, bloody kids.
-Yeah.

Better off
without them really.

-Yeah.
- Anyway...

Have I told you lately
how beautiful you are?

Oh, you're changing
the subject.

Yeah, I am.

Let's get out of here
and see if Ted

can take himself for a walk
around the block, a few times.

I'll drink to that.

-To us.
-To us.

Oh!

Now, see, that's not Latin.

Yeah, well,
I'm really more rock and roll.

I take it tonight
went all right, then?

One of the worst meals
we've ever had.

- Mm-hmm.
-Oh.

-And one of the best.
-Mm-hmm.

Ah, tomorrow's
Hall Street job.

I better take it.

Ah, Mrs. Devlin?

So, how was Rubes?

Good as gold.

Dreaming as we speak.

Oh, thanks, Dad.

It meant a lot to us.

Where would we be without you?

Jules...

Good to see...

You and Dave.

Oh. Yeah, thanks.

When you come and visit us,
we'll have fresh veggies.

Yeah, none of this
tinned rubbish.

I like tinned rubbish.

Carbo, I don't want you
getting hurt.

Em and I are going to do this,

so why don't you
just be happy for us?

Hey, are you feeling better?
We've saved you some.

Something's wrong.

♪ Come sit by me, my love... ♪

The first time I was here
I was with Mel.

We were trying to have a baby.

I was so sure
that it was right for us.

Not that things weren't good,
we were.

Anyway,
being here this morning

sort of brought it all back.

So if I've been acting
a bit weird...

Is that what you were going
to tell me in the kitchen?

Yeah.

I didn't want to hurt you.

I hope Retta's okay.

♪ Come sit by me, my love... ♪

You sure that thing's working?

How are those
abdominal pains now?

-Mm. Better.
-That's good, right?

-What was that?

Was-was-was that it?

-Was that the heartbeat?
-Just bear with me a sec.

-There, that's it?

Sorry, if you could
just wait a tick.

I'm just going to go
and get your doctor.

It'll be there.
You'll see.

Hey, hey, hey, hey,
hey, hey, Retta.

-Okay.
-It'll be there.

Just breathe, okay?
Just relax.

That is so going to topple.

It's so not.

Oh...

Ooh, oh...

Oh...

-You are a freak.
-I should've been

a structural engineer.
Seriously.

All right, watch this.

What?

What can I say, Cobes?

-You've got the Midas touch.
-No, reverse Midas.

Poo-das. Everything
I touch turns to crap.

Mm.

-Mm.
-So, Jake and Sian seem tight?

Yeah. No, it's cool.

-But?
-But nothing.

No, I'm happy for them.

I am.

But you've lost your bestie.

Yeah, well, things change.

That's life.

Maybe I can fill
those high heels.

What? Thanks.

I just can't imagine you
in high heels, that's all.

Why?

Seriously?
You and me doing girly stuff?

Yeah, I can paint my nails.

-Like reading our horoscopes?
-Yeah.

Mm-hmm.
Slumber parties.

-Rating boys.
-Right.

Yeah.

How does Dave rate?

Dude...

Yeah, right,
he's not really a boy.

He's old enough
to be your father so...

-Your point?

He should've known better.

You know it wasn't like that.

It takes two even if
he didn't start it. It's...

My dad...

I guess I just sort of...

looked up to Dave.

You could do a lot worse.

Your father's passed away?

Right?

Like...

not long ago?

Anyway, end of subject.

Back to slumber parties.

-What?

-No.
-You can't blame

-a guy for trying.
-You can't, you can't.

-You can't.

No, you're right.

I feel like
I've let you down.

Oh, you couldn't let me down
if you tried.

The dumbest thing
was me blabbing to everyone.

Hey, you were just excited.

We both were.

Thank God you're all right.

'Course I am.

I'm a lot stronger
than I look.

And our baby's out there.

He'll come to us
when he's ready.

Or she.

You're going to be
the best dad.

Are you awake?

Yeah.

I just don't get
how Carbo stayed so brave.

I know.
They're incredible.

If it'd been me,
I would've been a mess.

I am a mess.

Ben...

I'm sorry.

What are you doing?

Ben?

Where are you going?

Out. For a walk.

I'll come with you.

No, no, no.
You stay here.

I won't be long.

Good morning.

Hey.

And how long have
you been awake?

A while.

What, just staring at me?

I was thinking
about last night.

What happened last night?

Don't you remember?

Mm...

Did it have something to do
with swans?

Yeah, you could say that.

Why don't you show me?

There you go.

-Thank you.
-Yeah, thanks, mate.

How are you?

I'm okay.

These things
aren't uncommon.

We can always try again.

It makes you think though,

how touch and go life is.

You've got to make
the most of it.

Yeah.

Like, if you get
the chance to do something,

something that could change
your life,

you should probably go for it.

Mate, this farm thing,

if it's what you guys
want to do,

kick arse I say.

Thanks, mate.

Hey, you're up.

Want some brekkie?

A coffee.

Okay.

How are you?

All good.

If there's anything
I can do...

I'll ring my bell.

There you go.

Sorry about last night,

getting in late.

I hope I didn't wake you.

I wasn't asleep.

You all ready
for the big appointment

-at the bank?
-Ben--

Oh, is that the time?
I've got to--

Mate, leave it.

-I'll do it.
-Okay.

You okay?

I can't remember
the last time

I was actually early
for something.

I feel so grown up
taking out a mortgage.

All those years
watching Mum and Dad

just scraping through,

interest rates going up
and down.

It's kind of scary.

-Ben, about last night--
-Oh, finally.

Ben, I can't!

-What's wrong?
-I just can't!

Look, this isn't right!

-What isn't?
-This whole thing.

Look, we're not ready!

You're not ready!

Em! Em!

Hey, what's wrong?

Ben, you're a seriously
beautiful guy--

Emma, don't.
You're wrong.

-I am ready.
-No, you want to be.

It's not the same thing.

Maybe if we give it
more time.

Oh, you're trying
to force something

that's not there.

It's not the right time
for you

and it might never be.

Look, maybe if we'd met
down the track,

six months, a year,

it might've all been
different but...

...right now,
you need time to heal.

I love you.

And Mel.

I'm sorry.

But I can't share you.

I need you to love just me.

I deserve that.

I heard you got lucky.

-Tania.
- Another groupie?

-Yeah.
-Pfft. Desperado more like.

Tania the tonsil tickler,
wasn't she?

- Yeah.
-Crap kissing technique.

All tongue.

Nothing worse.

Four sugars, wasn't it?

-There you go.
-Thank you.

Dave, can I see you inside
for a sec?

Welcome.

Welcome to the world
of salsa.

Today, I'm going to help you
to relax.

-Ta-da.
-Oh, no, no, no.

Well, why wait
'til we're old?

No, no, I've got...
I've got work to do.

Come on, 10 minutes.
Come on, help me

-fold out the mat.
- Oh.

Oh, all right, all right.

Here we go.

- My back!
-Oh, Dave.

-Oh, nah, nah, it's... Oh.
- Really?

-Crikey. Yeah. Yeah.
- You all right?

Oh, nothing a good rub
wouldn't fix.

Oh, Dave!

Retta.

I can't help thinking

there's something
I should've done.

Retta, no.

You did everything
you could.

It just...

-It just happened.
-Then why do I feel so guilty?

-I'm so, so ashamed.
-No.

Is it that sip of beer
that I had.

-No.
-Maybe I should've

stopped work.

I should've just rested.

Stayed in here

and thought
of the baby more.

Hey, how could you have
thought about the baby more?

Hm?

We just...

It wasn't meant to be.

Oh, Carbo.

-We lost our baby.
-Come here.
