- [Narrator] Previously on McLeod's Daughters.

- Wilgul's in my name, it was bought with my money, it's mine and mine alone.

- Alright Nick you wanna go it alone?

You're gonna find out what that really means.

Alex, I want the tractor gone, I want the grater gone, I want the boom sprayer gone.

You wanna be boss, Nick?

You can be boss of nothing at all.

- He took my hand without saying a word and we danced.

And I knew the moment he touched me that he was the one.

- That was Dad?

Oh, then he left us.

- There's not always a happy ending, Jo.

But that's okay because when it was good, it was very, very good.

(gentle music) - Oy Tess, wake up.

- Wasn't there a rule against working when the temperature gets over 40?

- Yeah well, the sooner we get 'em through, the sooner we get out of the sun.

(sheep bleating) - Who's this?

- Oh my God.

- What?

- Hello Meg.

You must be Jodi?

- I'm Jodi.

- Jodi, say hello to your father.

(bright music) ♪ It'll take some time to find your heart ♪ ♪ And come back home ♪ ♪ You could run for miles, cross every river ♪ ♪ And find you're not alone ♪ ♪ 'Cause I'll be there ♪ ♪ Oh, oh ♪ ♪ Oh, oh ♪ ♪ You're not alone ♪ ♪ Oh, oh ♪ ♪ Oh, oh ♪ ♪ 'Cause I'll be there ♪ ♪ Ooh ♪ - So is he really her father?

- Yeah, hasn't even changed that much.

- I don't remember him at all.

- Well you wouldn't, you were too busy playing with dolls.

- So what's he doing here?

- I don't know.

- What does he want?

- I don't know.

- You must know something.

- All I.

- Claire, those-- - All I know is they were married and when Jodi was one he just took off.

- Just like that?

- Just like that.

Not a word, not a note, not a goodbye.

- In 19 years?

- Yep.

- That bastard.

(somber music) (chickens clucking) - Where did you get this?

- I found it in Jack's study.

- When was that?

- When I was five.

- Oh sweetheart, I'm sorry.

(Jodi crying) - Why did you walk out on us?

- I didn't.

- You did, I was one, you left without leaving a note.

You left without even saying goodbye.

- That's not what happened.

Your mother told me that she wasn't coming with me.

It was her decision, not mine.

- That's not true.

Is it?

- Yes it is.

(Jodi crying) - Wonder what they're talking about.

- 19 years, that's a lot to catch up on.

- Hey Meg, we're almost through here, if you wanna take off.

- Not here to work.

- So what's Kevin doing here?

- He's here for Jodi's 18th.

- Yeah but that was months ago.

- Exactly.

Beth.

- Hey Nick.

- Hey.

- Come for the tank?

- now that Dad's taken everything back.

I only need it for a couple of days, see the weeds sprayed round the yards.

- No worries.

- Hey, you ordered a truck yet?

- Yeah, why?

- I tried everyone, they're all booked out.

- Really?

I spoke to John Jackson this morning, there was no problem.

- Maybe I should give him a call.

- Yeah.

- Gotta get my sheep for sale.

- Cash flow problems.

- My loan repayment's due Friday.

- Yeah, brother.

- Yeah.

(soft music) - Having you didn't change a thing to me.

I thought we'd sail away, the three of us.

Find a strong wind with the smell of salt in it, first stop the Philippines.

- So why didn't we?

- That's probably something you should ask your mother.

- No, I want to know from you.

- We didn't really get to talk a lot about it, Jodi.

Your mother made her decision, I hitched a ride out of here.

But it wasn't her fault.

She'd put down roots here, I couldn't take her away from all this.

Not without a lot of pain.

I loved you and I loved her, but, back then if I'd stayed, it would have just been putting off the tears.

(Jodi laughing) - Here Beth, let me.

- Do you want me to run him off the property for ya?

- You can't, they just need time together, that's all.

- He doesn't deserve it.

- Whatever else he is, he's still her dad.

- It's too hot to do anymore today.

I'll get on with the cleaning.

- What is it about today, the hottest day of the year?

Don't people have shady trees they should be under?

- A cold pool they could lie in?

- Oh, what about a nice spa.

- Don't even think about it, it's green and full of mossies.

- Hey.

- Hey yourself.

About to go up and have a cold drink.

- Right, sounds good.

You wanna share a truck to the sale tomorrow?

- No, I've got one organized.

Oh, Nick needs one though, you could share with him.

- No, Nick plays his own game.

- That's a bit rough.

- It's his choice, not mine Claire.

- Alex - Look, I don't want to get into it, right?

You don't wanna share a truck, fine.

No worries, I'll see ya.

- Well what about the cold drink?

- Ah, forget it.

(broom sweeping) (somber music) - We could have gone with him, and you said no.

- Jodi, you were a year old, we had hardly any money.

It was so impractical.

- So why didn't you tell me that?

Why tell me a lie all this time?

What sort of person would make me think my father was this hopeless loser?

He's not that at all.

- No he's not.

I didn't let him go to stay gone, I let him go hoping he'd come home.

That he'd travel enough to realize what was important to him, that he'd come back to us.

I loved him, and I waited and I hoped.

And when he didn't come home, it hurt.

I didn't want you growing up waiting and hoping and being, it's better not to believe in something then to have your belief in it crushed.

- You have lied to me my whole life.

Why should I believe anything you say now?

- What are you doing?

- It's the coolest room in the house.

- Well, you can't just park yourself here, I've got work to do.

- You have not, you're just here because it's the coolest room in the house.

- Maybe, but it's got the telephone and I've gotta phone Peter about Casino.

- Oh, of course it's a five minute quarterhorse update.

- I haven't spoken to Peter-- - 10 minutes, I know.

Besides, he's probably not even interested in horses right now.

He's probably lying in a hammock somewhere in the shade, sipping something cool, naked.

(phone ringing) - Shut up.

Hello.

Ah Nick.

- Is he naked?

- What?

No, nothing.

No, no one's naked.

He had a company, Jackson's Freight.

(light music) Oh okay.

Yeah, see ya.

Nick's still having difficulty getting a truck.

Jackson's is fully booked.

- It's pretty stupid, Alex has half a truck spare, Nick can use half a truck.

Why don't they just sort something out?

- Yeah you're right.

I'm gonna talk to Alex.

- Oh go Claire of the UN, be careful.

Alex has a hammock, there's a lot of shade at Kilarny.

Maybe you want to make a warning phonecall.

Bye Claire (giggling).

- Do you want one?

- Oh, no thanks.

- I'm just popping over to Kilarny.

Can you leave me some lunch?

- Yep, sure.

- Oh Claire, can my father bunk down in the Sheriff's quarters.

(soft music) - Yep.

- Excellent, I'll go make up his bed.

- Why?

I mean everything you've said about him, just get rid of him.

- Maybe he wasn't the rat that I always said he was.

(upbeat music) - Oh, well.

- You all right?

- Oh yeah.

Look, Alex, Nick can't get a truck, and he needs to make a sale.

You've got space, is it such a bad thing to call?

- [Harry] Nick can't find a truck, that's his problem.

- Why are you being so hard on him?

- He's made his bed.

- All he needs to do is share a truck, he'll pay.

- [Harry] He's gotta find out what it means to go out on your own.

(somber music) - So you've called on a couple of mates?

- Yeah, I've called in a favor or two.

- This is your son.

- If he wants help, all he's got to do is ask.

- You'd do all this just to make a point?

- It's not your business, Claire.

Stay out of it.

You don't owe Nick any favors.

- Get away, Dad.

- When you're working at Wilgul for a building or shed.

- Look, Nick doesn't deserve this.

- Did he bother to tell you it was all for him?

I mean, even if he had a problem with me, why couldn't he tell you?

'Cause he was using you, Alex.

Can't expect to walk all over your family and have them do nothing.

- Yeah maybe, we're shutting him down, Dad.

- No I told ya, if he wants help, all he's got to do is ask.

- You know he's not gonna ask.

- His choice.

- I knew I didn't belong here, I knew it.

All that time I wanted to leave and I could have.

Mom had the choice of the whole world and she chose here.

- What's wrong with here?

- Are you crazy, I'd love to travel.

All the places Dad's, that my dad's been, Greece, Algeria, imagine the people you'd meet.

- Yeah, but Jodi you wouldn't be able to speak to any of them, unless you've been taking Algerian on the sly.

Jodi, this is your home.

- Big deal, I could have had a home in Canada or India or Turkey.

- Well thank goodness you didn't, because then you'd be a Turk, not just a turkey.

- The point is I'd be with my father, and Mom stopped me from doing that, she lied.

She's such a bitch.

- It must be really tough having two parents to choose from.

Lucky for me, both my parents hate my guts.

Life's simple.

- Ha ha.

You know he's worked in South America?

Great to walk along the Inca Trail.

(engine rumbling) (birds tweeting) (sheep bleating) - G'day.

- G'day.

I got to decide whether to give up and let them go or not.

It's too hot to keep them yarded.

- Yeah.

No luck with the trucks?

- Oh, there's one more chance.

Left a couple of messages with the Seymours.

They're not returning my calls.

- Yeah, they probably won't.

(dramatic music) I've been talking to Harry.

- He'd really do that?

And Alex?

- Oh, not Alex.

- I'm stuffed, the truckies aren't gonna cross Harry Ryan.

If I don't get a truck, I don't get to the sale.

- Maybe not, I've got a whole truck and I don't need it.

I've got room for an extra 100.

Look, I know it's half of what you wanted to sell, but it's better then nothing.

At least you'd have enough to meet the loan payment.

- That shows Harry he can't run everything.

- See you tomorrow morning then.

- Oy.

- What?

- Thanks.

- No worries.

- The thing about the sea is the feeling of lightness.

On a quiet night and a gentle breeze, you get the sense there's nothing solid underneath you.

The sky's so big, it's like you're flying through the stars.

- Don't you have to be really rich to own a yacht?

- You have to be really stupid to own a yacht.

- Then how -- - You only have to be a good sailor to crew one though.

I mean why get stuck in one job in one town in one country when you can travel, meet people, make money, see the world?

- I wish I could do something like that.

- You can.

- No I can't.

(somber music) I don't have enough money for the city, let alone a ticket to see the world.

I wish we'd gone when I was a kid, I could have grown up on a yacht.

Could have had this whole life already.

- I'm sure you've had a great life here.

- Who knows what he's saying to her.

Probably trying to make himself look good in this whole thing.

- Kev was always good with a story.

- Did you like him?

- Yeah, yeah I did.

Liked him better when he was gone (laughing).

- So, you don't mind him being back?

- No, of course not.

You still, how do you feel about it?

- I'm angry and I don't know what to feel.

He buggered off, you know, but it was so long ago now.

And now Jodi hates me for lying all this time.

- What else could you do, she was a baby.

You had to make decisions for both of ya.

- I thought I was doing the right thing.

- You were.

She'll come round.

(soft music) - I'm thinking Meg's mind wasn't completely on the cooking today.

- I remember Kev up in the sharing sheds, he used to do magic tricks.

He used to pull a spoon out of my ear, drove my crazy.

I couldn't work out how he was doing it.

- Jodi's over the moon to have him back.

- Don't get that.

I mean, I know technically he's her father but, well she hardly knows him.

How can he mean that much to her?

- Well, you think you love Jack just 'cause he was around all the time, just 'cause you knew the guy?

- No.

- When I went back to the city with Mom, she'd be at work and I'd be home by myself, after school.

Every day, I used to hope that there'd be a knock at the door and I'd open it and Jack would be there.

Then I used to fantasize about what I'd wear and what I'd say to him, or he'd say to me.

It would have been magic.

- So I've been given a score every week, but it really comes down to the big interview, which is next week, and the ball.

It would be really good win, though.

- I can't see how anyone else stands a chance.

- Yeah right (chuckling).

- Jodi, you're gorgeous.

And you're smart, and you're funny.

Maybe things have changed around here, but 20 years ago those qualities were pretty thin on the ground.

- Oh, I don't know.

- Yes you do, you're absolutely beautiful.

Don't you believe that?

- If I say yes doesn't that make me up myself?

(soft music) - If someone gives you a compliment, they're giving you a present.

Would you throw away a present?

- Of course not.

- Then what's wrong with saying thank you?

Everyone can be beautiful, you just have to let yourself be.

- Thank you.

You know I don't know anyone who thinks or talks like you.

You're a great dad.

- Thanks.

You better run along before your Mom starts to worry.

- Can I kiss you goodnight?

- Yeah, course you can.

I'm your dad, aren't I?

- Goodnight.

- Night.

- You will still be here in the morning right?

- I'm not going anywhere.

- (sighing) Oh, this is ridiculous.

- You want me to stay?

- I'd love you to, but I don't think it's a good idea.

I'm sorry about all of this.

- Don't be.

It's natural that you're anxious, you know?

- Jodi.

- Bathroom.

- I think we should -- - No we shouldn't.

(dramatic music) (door slamming) - You know where I am.

- G'day.

I was just thinking about you.

- Why did you come back?

- That's a fair enough question after all this time.

Truth is I don't really have an answer.

- Well, there must be a reason.

What do you want, money?

- Why does there have to be a reason?

- Well there wasn't a reason the first year, or the second, or the fifth or the 10th.

- I just wanted to see you, (somber music) isn't that enough?

(voices clamoring) - Morning everyone.

- I thought you were eating at home.

- Why, so you can tell more lies about my father while he isn't here?

- [Claire] Jodi.

- It's all right, Claire.

- We don't want to butt in, we just wanted to be with you all, but if you're busy.

- No, look, stay.

What would you like?

- No, I'll get it.

Think I can still find my way around this kitchen.

Now the cereal in '92 used to be here.

And it still is, hope it's not the same box.

Claire, you're missing something.

(light music) - What?

- Your spoon.

- No, it was just there.

- Oh look, it's been there since '92 as well.

(all applauding) - Well done.

- Mom, can you please pass the toast, if it's not too much trouble?

I don't suppose there are any eggs here either.

Don't worry about us, we'll be fine.

- Jodi, why don't we go and get a couple from the shed?

- See, I told you he was fantastic, not at all like my mother said he was all these years.

I can't believe she kicked him out and then lied about it.

You know she's cheated me out of a relationship with my father.

What sort of person-- - Jodi, shut up.

No matter what your mom said or did or didn't say or didn't do, what about what your dad did?

(somber music) - What?

- He's a great guy Jode, don't get me wrong, but in the end he left and there was no contact for 18 years.

Did he ever write you a letter?

Send you any money, anything, any piece of communication?

That's not your mom's fault.

- You know what, I bet he did write.

She's lied about everything else.

I reckon he wrote and she hid the letters just like your mom did.

(papers rustling) - What are you doing?

- Where are the letters?

- What letters?

- The letters from Dad, the postcards, Christmas cards.

Where are they?

- There were no letters.

Not one, never.

(all laughing) - Did you ever write to me after you left?

- No.

- You must have.

All that stuff you said about thinking about me, imagining me growing up, you didn't even send one postcard.

- What if Meg had got married again?

Your mother's a wonderful woman, Jodi, it was only natural she'd meet someone else.

I didn't want to get in the way of that.

I didn't want to hurt you.

And to be honest, I didn't want to be hurt.

Better for everyone if I just stayed out of your lives altogether.

- So what made you change your mind?

- I figured Jodi's an adult now, she's old enough to decide if she wants to know me or not.

Look, I didn't come here to drive a wedge between you two.

I'd walk off the property now rather than upset you, you know.

- Yeah, you're good at walking off.

- Can't you say anything nice?

- No, no your mother's right.

I'm a wanderer, always have been.

Meg did what she had to to bring you up, and look what a terrific job she's done.

Better then if I'd been here probably.

Don't blame your mother for who I am and what I've done.

I'm the one that let you down, not her.

(sheep bleating) - Hear you had trouble finding a truck.

- Yeah I'll manage.

- I think Alex has got half a truck spare.

- You offering?

- Are you asking?

Hey, hey, why do you have to do everything on your own?

- You know why.

- We're still your family, Nick.

- It's not the sort of family I want, Dad.

- Fine, you do it on your own, see how far you get.

(dramatic music) - Sprung bad.

- What can he do to us now?

(phone dialing) (Claire shouting) - [Man] 12, number 12.

Calling number 12.

Come in, John.

Are you there, number 12?

Number 12, calling number 12.

Come in John, you there?

- Digger number 12 receiving, go ahead.

- That's it, we're done.

- Thanks Claire.

- Pleasure.

- I don't know how to say this (chuckling), there's been some sort of stuff up with the bookings.

I can't take this load.

- You can't take my sheep?

- Not only yours, I can't take Miss McLeod's either.

They reckon I've gotta unload the whole lot and get over to Spring Ridge-- - No way.

I booked this truck yesterday morning.

- Look, nothing like this has ever happened before.

- Is this what I think it is?

(foreboding music) - Harry.

I'm not unloading the sheep, we've got to get them to the sale.

- Sorry, I'm just following orders.

I mean I'll unload the lot if I have to.

- Oy, oy, careful Claire, you'll just get boycotted too.

- Go on, shoo.

- Someone open the gate.

- I'll do it.

I'm gonna go round up some more sheep.

- Good girl.

- What?

- Oh nothing, just haven't seen you so keen.

- What, I love sheep work.

- We could wait for the next sale, try again then.

- What, and just hope that Harry forgets about his vendetta?

- I need the cash this week, I've got to get these sheep to Gungellan.

Come on.

- What if we bring Gungellan to the sheep.

- An on-farm sale?

- Yeah, yeah, we had one at Drovers a couple of years back.

We rang around prospective buyers, told them what we had on offer, got an auctioneer.

All did it at home, it went pretty well.

- Yeah but look at the yards, they're too big to show the sheep off.

Drovers would be perfect for it.

- No it's too hot to drive the sheep there today.

It would have to be here.

- Well why don't we have the sale tomorrow and do some work on the yards today?

- That's a good idea.

- Yeah, we could set up portable yards with temporary fences.

- I'll get on the blower, get some buyers, get them before they go to the sale today.

(tense music) - You right.

- G'day Kevin.

- Well, well you still here.

You haven't moved far in the world, have ya?

- I didn't have to.

Knew a good thing when I saw it.

- Yeah, my wife.

- Well that'd be the wife that you walked out on, wouldn't it?

- Everything okay?

- Yeah, right as rain.

- Yeah fine.

- I have to go, Claire needs some fencing over at Wilgul.

- What for?

- Nick and Claire are having an on-farm sale.

Do you wanna come?

- Can't come between Harry and Nick.

- Yeah, of course.

- Maybe I can help, why don't we take my Yute?

- Come on, Mom.

See ya, Terry.

- You sure you're okay?

- If you are.

- I'm gonna melt.

- This is nothing, you try mustering camels in the Sahara, then you know hot.

- You did that?

- Yeah, at least sheep don't spit at ya.

Your mother rode a camel once.

- Really?

- I don't remember.

- Oh I do.

It was a show and you got on the biggest one.

- Wow, was it fun?

- It was a disaster.

(Claire laughing) - Things didn't go exactly as planned.

The camel took off and Meg went flying.

- [Jodi] Did you hurt yourself?

- No.

- [Jodi] How come?

- Kevin managed to catch me.

- Ooh, how romantic.

- Sill bloody thing should never have got on it in the first place.

- So, tell me more about when you and Mom were together.

- The first time I saw your mom was at a dance.

- A band.

- Oh yeah, Sherbet?

- Dragon.

She told me once.

- Oh.

Anyway it was your mom's 21st.

- 18th.

- Yeah well, you looked older then me and you had your hair down.

- It was up, it was way up, round the.

- Not by the end of the night.

- Took me three hours to get it right.

- I couldn't take my eyes off you.

You were so beautiful.

(soft music) I looked across at you and you looked across at me.

And when our eyes met I knew you were the woman for me.

(Nick whistling) - We're on.

Got buyers for tomorrow.

- Yay, give me an S, give me an H, give me an E-E-P. (tense music) - So what have you done?

- Good time at the sales?

- No, the buyers were down.

So why wasn't Claire there?

- How would I know?

- Cut the bull, Dad, you know what I'm asking.

- Yeah, I did hear she had some trouble.

Truck got called away.

Think it was the same one she was sharing with Nick.

- You're a real piece of work, aren't ya?

- I'm just protecting your interests.

You want your brother to walk all over you?

This is gonna be your place, Alex.

You don't want it, say the word.

(dramatic music) (water splashing) (soft music) - Didn't realize I had an audience.

- I just got here.

I was wondering if you're not doing anything, if you'd like to come over for dinner?

- Yeah, I'd love too.

- Good.

- Cozy, isn't it?

- Yeah but you can't sail in it.

- Sailing isn't everything.

- Never thought I'd hear you say that.

- Some things it takes a while to learn.

- Jodi.

- Mm.

To.

- To us.

- To us.

(glasses clinking) So this Miss Gungellan Ball, I seem to remember, there's some sort of waltz involved.

- Yeah right, it's gonna be a disaster.

I'd ask Craig Woodland but he's hopeless, he's probably tackle me to the floor.

- Any chance I could do it?

(soft music) - Really?

- If you want me to.

Nothing would make me prouder.

- But it's a week away.

- Are you sure you can stay that long?

- I've wasted 18 years, not going anywhere in a hurry.

(voices clamoring) - Chops.

- Here you go.

- So, you reckon they'll all come?

- Yep, I got in before they went to the sale today.

Lot of them decided to try us first.

- Go Nick!

- Not massive numbers, Tess.

- You only need one.

(door knocking) (light music) - Nick.

- Alex.

- I heard about the trouble with the truck, Claire.

- It was my truck too, mate.

- I came to apologize.

- Bit late for that.

- I came to apologize to Claire, all right?

- Alex, it's not your fault, okay?

- You cookin' something up?

- We're having an on-farm sale.

- At Wilgul.

- You need a hand?

(upbeat music) - Yeah.

- Pull up a pew then.

One, two, three, four, five.

That should do ya.

I'll get you some knives and forks.

We got about 12 coming tomorrow morning.

- Bread Alex?

- Wow.

Nick's a six, Craig's a two, but you're definitely a 9 1/2 (giggling).

Mom said you were a good dancer.

- Did she now?

- Yes.

Thanks Dad.

- No, no, no.

- Oh go on, Mom.

- Come on.

- Ah, you guys looks terrific.

(gentle music) (both laughing) - I'd better go.

Thanks.

- He's pretty terrific, isn't he?

- Hey, that's Race Haley, how'd you get him?

- Natural charm.

- I reckon I smell a fire sale.

- Want a drink?

- No thanks.

- We've got a problem.

The auctioneer rang, he's cracked a radiator just outside Fischer, he's not gonna make it.

- I'll do it.

- [Both] No!

(light music) - The bid's at only three.

We're looking for four, looking for four, for four.

We've got four, we got five, looking for five, five, looking for five, looking for five, looking for five.

35, looking for six, looking for six.

Come on ladies and gentlemen, these are fine quality.

- Need to lose 40 per head.

- Looking for seven, six, seven.

We've got eight, we've got eight at the back.

We're looking for nine, 39.

Looking for 40, we got 40.

Looking for one, looking for one, looking for one, looking for one, looking for one.

Someone give me 41.

Come on, ladies and gentlemen.

This one's already got a suit on, better dressed then I am.

Yes, we've got 41 at the back.

We're looking for two, looking for two, looking for two, looking for two, looking for two.

We've got two, we've got 43, coming, 43.

Where's 43?

I'll take a half.

43, looking for four, looking for four, 44.

Looking for five, 45, looking for five, looking for five.

We've got five up the back.

Can I see six, can I see six?

45, for the second time, I'll take you half Ryan.

45 for the third and final time.

Sold to the gentlemen in the hat, well done sir.

- All right.

- Moving to the next yard, these are prime McLeod ewes.

You know what I'm talking about now.

- I don't know how you let him go.

Kev, what do you want, check or cash for the auctioneer's fee?

- Neither, it was a pleasure.

- No, no mate, wouldn't be right.

I wouldn't have made half as much money without you.

- Claire, there's no way I'm taking your money.

I'm getting free board as it is.

- But.

- Happy to help.

Forget it.

- So you got enough for the loan repayment?

- More than enough, extra 900 to start fixing the yards with.

- That's great.

(tense music) What can he do to us now?

- You know it's a funny thing, I called Race Haley, his wife told me he's at a sale at Wilgul.

Well congratulations, I've got to say I admire you for this.

Very smart, very organized, looks like you've done a good job.

Proud of you, Nick.

- What's this?

- It's a bill for using Callarnie men at Wilgul, $1,000.

If you need this money, I can lend it back to ya.

All you've got to do is ask.

- Send us a receipt.

- There goes your fences.

- Yeah, well if it means doing it myself, whatever.

- Good on ya, mate.

- Surprised to see you here.

- There are no sides here, Dad.

You're my father, he's my brother.

- You following me back?

- When I'm ready.

- Hey, we should have an on-farm sale every month.

You don't need to pay for transport, we made good money.

- Nah, there's no guarantee we'd get the same turnout.

Just a novelty this time.

- Sure we would, everyone loved it.

- The other thing is you should always buy when you sell.

Didn't get a chance to do that, so our stock numbers are down.

- Thanks for dinner everyone, it was beautiful.

- Oh, are you off?

I'll walk with you.

Just need to get something out of the Yute.

(soft music) - You know your dad is the best auctioneer I've ever seen.

- Yeah, he should take it up professionally.

- Well that would involve him staying in one spot.

- What are his plans?

- I don't know, he's staying for the ball.

- Wow.

- Yeah, I wish he'd stay forever.

- It was our first week, how was I supposed to know you're allergic to peanuts?

- Well there was no way I was going to tell you, was there?

You'd gone to so much trouble.

- Oh great, so then I had to drive you to the hospital so you could have your stomach pumped.

- Yeah, true love.

- Was it?

- Yeah, for me.

- I remember The Doors were playing on the radio.

- The Doors, blimey, was it really that long ago?

- Seems like a moment.

- Seems like a heartbeat.

(electricity crackling) - Ah damn wiring.

I'll grab a torch, we've got some light bulbs in the-- - No, don't worry about it.

It was so good seeing you both again.

Jodi's a terrific kid, you've done a great job there, Meg.

I was thinking, might look for some work locally, hang around for a bit.

- Don't do that.

- What?

- Don't spin that line.

- (laughing) What do you mean?

- How long do you think it would last?

I'm glad you saw her, I'm glad she saw you.

But you've glossed over everything, and everybody believes you.

Yes, I lied, but so did you.

You were gonna go anyway.

- Come on, don't be like that.

Come dance with me.

- Don't do that.

I thought you'd stay and you didn't.

I hoped you'd come back and now you just, you waltz in here like.

- I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

(soft music) - Don't you see?

You took my heart.

- Don't you see?

I left mine behind.
