Playing for Keeps (2018) s01e06 Episode Script
Episode 6
1 Rusty came out this morning.
He's gay.
So why didn't you tell me? I gave him my word.
We tell each other everything.
Not this time.
I am preparing to launch my new men's fragrance line, Connor by Tahlia.
Why don't you just get a branding iron and burn it into my forehead? This has to be the last time you and I discuss what happened between us in any way, shape, or form.
Is there anything else you haven't told me? Not off the top of my head, no.
- Anything you haven't told me? - Nuh.
You're smart and fresh.
You should be working out how to play to your strengths.
Find your brand, and make some extra money.
I'm not into you hijacking my teammates' personal shit so that you can get strangers to follow you online.
- I'm pregnant.
- (ALL LAUGH) - What? - Congratulations.
I want to look after you, Jess.
Come to Queensland with me.
Did you, or did you not, film Yasmine? - I did.
- We are unable to offer you anymore work.
I've been a wild dog in this here part of town No gunslinger, no foe could bring me down, down Paige Dunkeley.
Yeah "Whole Way Hanno", I miss ya, too.
Um, I I was just wondering if you needed a relief teacher this lovely Wednesday.
Nuh.
Okay.
Well, if you do, you know where to find me.
Suse! You catch the game on the weekend? Yeah, Round ten, smashed it.
Hey, um, I'm just calling about some relief.
Yeah, yeah, it's been a whole month.
Toni can't say I'm not consistent.
You know, I-I'm quick at adapting to change, and open to any other roles.
What roles? I'm not sure I have the appropriate training to run a sex-Ed class, but-but I do have experience in that area if it helps.
(CRUNCHES) (BACKGROUND MUSIC SLOWS DOWN TO A STOP) (MOBILE CHIMES) Work? Kinda.
What's with the phone? I'm working.
Every time I turn around, you're dit-dit-dit-dit-dit.
That's a bit rich! At least I'm not Ah, sorry, wh-what is that? Checking your skin folds and tap-tap-tapping on your fitness app.
Well, it don't look like that.
You examine every inch of your body every minute of every day.
I have a running commentary on your bowel movements.
That's a lie, and you know it.
(MOBILE CHIMES) See? Email.
Work.
Yeah.
Well, you got lucky.
I've gotta call Brody.
Why, where you going? No, you're not going anywhere.
Release me! I've got to get ready.
Well, don't change, Paige.
I'm actually really digging the homeless look.
Adrian will be here at 8:30.
I've given him a quick rundown over the phone, but just give him a tour of the house, introduce him to the kids.
- Oh, should I cook the fish? - Fish, yes.
But smell it first.
- I'm unsure of what's happening there.
- Alright.
Mwah! Mm.
No, fold it up, Trav, there's no time.
Babe, I'm dying here.
Ew! Mitchell used my toothbrush again! - Oh! - I thought it was mine.
Oh, I am so late, but I love you, mwah, and I love you.
Hang on, what time are you going to be home? And I love you! Morning.
Morning What are you doing? Oh, thanks.
(GIGGLES) (GROWLS) (BOTH CHUCKLE QUIETLY) That's your master plan, is it? No.
It worked well, didn't it? There's loads of room for improvement.
- Yeah, well, I'm open to suggestions.
- Mmm.
Just hang on.
- You alright? - Yeah! Roll over.
Hey, hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Do you mind if we just Yeah, yeah.
Let's take it slowly.
Yeah.
Ok, so flowers on the table and the bar.
We want a floral candelabra at the entrance.
We definitely want a mirrored dance floor, and two deck changers.
- Deck changers? - Yeah.
We're gonna we're gonna start inside with a cocktail set-up.
We're going to move it to the garden for an outdoor reception.
- With fairy lights.
- No fairy lights.
- Right, no fairy lights.
- No, no, no.
- Fierce elegance.
- Got it.
On it.
Totally know what you mean.
"Fierce elegance?" It's us, babe.
It's you and me.
Is it? (SIGHS) Do you mind giving us a moment? - Of course.
- Thank you.
Now what's happening? How are you feeling? If you don't love it, just just tell me.
I want you to be happy.
It's just that if this is our engagement, how big's the wedding gonna be? Big.
Hey, this tap doesn't turn off properly.
Oh, just put that bowl under it.
I'll use it to water the plants.
No, I can fix it.
You got any washers? Yeah.
Um, Jack used to keep stuff under the sink.
Yep (SIGHS) So it's a bye-weekend, and Tahlia and Connor are having their engagement party.
Ah, let me guess.
Small, tasteful, just a handful of close friends and family.
- You should come.
- To an event? - With you? - Yeah.
As what? - My date.
- (CHUCKLES) Some guy I'm seeing.
Hey, does this mean What? Queensland? - You're serious? - Yeah, I'm serious.
Oh! Real clothes? Yeah, Brody and I are talking school strategy.
Well, all hail, Brody.
Gees, you look great.
Right.
Well, I'll leave you to it.
(CONFIRMATION CHIME) (NOTIFICATIONS DING REPEATEDLY) - Speak to me! - I think I'm being trolled.
So, they liked all my photos, and then I posted a selfie this morning Mmm, I saw it, loved it, liked it.
.
.
yeah, and then they left some ambiguous comment on it, and I can't tell if they're joking or Well, what did it say? "it's Friday.
" It is Friday.
Yeah, I know, but my post said "Sure feels like a Monday.
" Oh.
Well, do they have any photos? - Nuh.
- Troll! I'm offended, but I'm not entirely sure why! It's just Block, delete, move on.
- Yeah, but - Do not agitate them.
They move in packs.
They're like hyenas.
(MOBILE CLICKS) Paige? Do not feed the trolls! You know what? Nah.
If they've got a problem with me, they can unfollow me.
Yeah.
No, that is not how it works.
You're right.
If they've got a problem with me, they can say it to my face.
Don't! - (MOBILE BEEPS) - Sent.
Coming out is daunting as it is, let alone when you're in the spotlight.
When did you know you were gay? It's not like I wake up one morning, and thought, you know, "I guess I'm gay.
" This is this is who I am.
Brian Rickards prides himself on being a hand's on coach.
He didn't want to support you through this? Coming out was my decision.
I wanted to do it alone.
It's got nothing to do with Brian.
(VIDEO REWINDS) It's got nothing to do with Brian.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- Listen.
I - (MOBILE CHIMES) Yeah? Go, get it.
- (BEEPS) - Two secs.
Hey, mate.
What? No! No idea.
No, no.
It's alright.
We'll deal with it.
Hey! What are you guys doing here? You're kidding me.
I was hot.
I took my jacket off for like three seconds.
- Not your fault.
- Bloody paps.
He's threatened to sell them, unless, of course, we pay him out.
Look, the way I see it, we have a few options.
We can buy the pics, give you some more time.
Or we make a statement to get ahead of the story.
You're in your second trimester.
I know it's hard, but you can't hide it forever.
This way, at least we can control the narrative.
And we should discuss how that's going to look.
Jack and I have been trying for some time.
We have to mention the club.
I'll get Brian to make a statement about how the Southern Jets - plan to support you.
- No, I don't think that's a good idea.
Um The baby's not Jack's.
- I met Nate about 18 months ago.
- (MOBILE CHIMES) We fell in love.
Look, I know what you guys are thinking, but it's No, no.
Did did Jack know? Yes, yes! God, yes, he knew everything.
I never lied to Jack.
Our marriage was it was over.
More or less.
We were going to separate during the off-season.
But Honey.
(MOBILE CHIMES) I just want this to stop.
First Jack, and then all the rumours with Rusty.
I mean, what? Now I'm supposed to tell him I'm pregnant with another man's kid? What do I say to JJ? You have nothing to be ashamed of.
You and Jack are the only ones that know the truth.
No one else has the right to judge you.
What do you want to do, Jess? I can't hide this.
Whatever you decide, we're going to be behind you 100%.
I know it's a really big decision.
We just don't have much time.
I don't know.
I have to talk to Nate.
I can buy you 24 hours.
That's it.
Thank you.
Come here.
- You're not hanging around? - I wish I could.
Unfortunately, this pap isn't the only pyromaniac I have to deal with today.
See ya.
- Listen.
- Don't make a scene.
You should see the engagement party.
Tahlia is in.
All of her is in.
I need to tell her.
It would break her.
- It would break the club.
- It would ruin your career.
I don't care! I'm going crazy! I'm looking at flowers and candles, and all I can think about is you.
Don't you threaten me.
Don't you fucking threaten me! No-one can know about this! Do you understand? Do you understand, Connor? This engagement party, it's not your whole relationship.
You're nervous.
That's understandable.
It's human.
Don't blow up your whole life over it.
You're missing my point about me thinking about you.
- It will pass.
- Footy isn't everything.
I'd give it up for you.
Well, that's the difference.
I wouldn't.
Well, who is he? How did you meet? His name's Nate and his daughter bit JJ.
(LAUGHS) What? I get this call from JJ's day-care, and they're like, "JJ's been bitten.
" So I race down there, livid.
I can't even remember driving.
To find this guy sitting in the office.
All I can remember is him laughing.
Until I finally come to, and I've been verbally abusing him - for a solid ten minutes.
- (LAUGHS).
I'd pay good money to see that.
Well, bite my son and you can see it for free.
Anyway, he asked me for coffee.
And that was that.
Yeah.
He's kind, generous.
And I'm so in love with him it's sickening.
- Oh! - (LAUGHS) And, um, does he know the baby is his? Yeah.
He's asked me and JJ to move to Queensland with him.
Get away from all the press.
Oh.
And all your friends.
I'm not trying to convince you to stay.
But I just want to be sure.
Is that what you want? It really is.
Then I'm so happy for you.
(GIGGLES) I hear on the email grapevine that old mate Silky Steve got the boot.
Well, he was offered a job at another school.
- Awesome.
Good for him.
- Mm-hmm.
I guess that means that there's a full-time position just rolling around waiting for good old Paige to snap it up.
Am I right? I'm sure Toni would love to have you back.
Jim, on the other hand Look, I know I'm not an easy sell.
I stuffed up.
Massively.
But Toni backed me, and I let her down.
This is my opportunity to prove that she wasn't wrong about me.
I need this.
Fine, I'll risk my life, and talk to Toni.
- Really? - I'm not making any promises.
I have to go head-to-head with Jim.
Ah, confrontation, not my forte.
We just need to get your confidence up.
I've actually called a face-to-face with a troll.
I'm going to tell them to stop.
Ho! I could never do something like that.
You're about to.
The trick is to get in and out without being mean.
You can be assertive, but don't engage on their level.
Kind of like dealing with 15-year-olds? - Yeah, exactly.
- Yeah.
- Oh, that's not him, is it? - Don't think so.
This way.
Hi, are you Izo.
I'm Paige.
This is my friend Brody.
Um, look.
You seem like a good person.
Well, we just thought You might have a problem with me and what I put out into the world.
What are you talking about? You wrote "it's Friday.
" It is Friday.
You're uncomfortably blunt in communication.
And you like all my photos.
- Well, I like you.
- You don't really know me.
- No, you do not.
- You're from Casterton.
A school teacher.
You want to help people.
And you stood up for Rusty O'Reilly.
That was pretty cool.
(LAUGHS) (DOOR CLOSES) Hello? Oh, hey! How was your day? I have some bad No, unfortunate news.
Adrian, our new nanny is no longer.
Shit! Trav! He came highly recommended! Just offer him more money.
Money can fix many things, but not this.
He may have walked in on me in the midst of some personal time.
- Wait.
What? Where were you? - Here.
No, no, no, before you get angry, just hear me out.
- It takes ten minutes to walk to the park, - Oh! And the kids play for no less than 45 minutes.
And then, it's a ten-minute walk home.
That is a luxurious amount of time.
I believe Adrian's poor organisation skills are to blame.
If he didn't forget Abby's hat, I would have been well and truly finished.
I cannot believe you, Travis Cochrane! You think you're the only one suffering from our lack of sexy time? I am considering getting the bus to work solely for the vibrations, but I am handling it.
- And you should be, too.
- But Stop costing us excellent babysitters! Final push! Push, push! - (GROANS) - That's it.
Looking forward to the party tomorrow, mate.
Ah, I'd be shitting myself if I were you.
- It must feel good, but.
- What? Just like knowing she's the one.
How's Paige? Ah, she's still looking for a job.
It's been tough.
Sorry, mate.
(MOBILE RINGS) I'll leave you to it.
Yeah.
Hey, Skip.
You all good, mate? - Yeah, yeah.
- You've been a big quiet lately.
I just got a lot on.
You haven't been yourself at training.
- Yeah, you know? - Your form hasn't been great.
If this engagement stuff is taking your mind off the game It's not.
Well, give us a yell if it does.
I'll get Kath to have a cheeky word with Natalia and get you out.
Alright, get into it.
Look what arrived.
Oh! - How'd it all go with Brody? - There might be something.
Don't don't get excited.
We still have to get Jim over the line first.
Containing excitement.
The thing is Brody doesn't really do confrontation, so afterwards we met up with one of my followers.
Weirdly direct.
A follower? Uh, it's not like that.
I thought she was trolling me.
- You met with a troll? - Oh, anti-climax.
OK.
She wasn't even a troll.
But-but, Paige, she could have been a reporter.
Um, relax.
She doesn't even know who you are.
Paige, she would have no idea who you were if you weren't my girlfriend.
I'm sorry.
Look, social media, it's still media.
If anything comes out about me, the club might You know, there is a world outside of football, right? I mean, maybe.
Just this once, this isn't about you.
Or the 20-plus guys I come runner up to every week.
OK, you've really got to get over that.
It is my job.
That's right! It's a job! It's just a job.
It's more than just a job! It's my career! You'd get that if you had one! I did in Casterton, and I gave it up for a couple of reasons, - one of them being you! - Yeah? Well, maybe that was a mistake.
That's how you're breaking up with me? No! I don't know.
I don't think so.
You don't "think" so? Well, just back home, this was just so much easier.
- With all this shit, I - Are you serious? The girls think we should get ahead of the story.
- Tell the truth.
That way - Hold on.
You told the girls about me? Yeah.
Well, with this and the engagement party Yeah.
No, I get it.
It's just I thought that was something we would decide together.
I know.
But we're kind of pressed for time here.
S-so So, um, what can we do about these? Can we pay them out or something? There's no guarantee they're not going to sell the photos to someone else.
I have a daughter, Jess.
This is fast.
We have to tell the truth eventually.
Otherwise, people are going to assume it's Jack's baby.
Are you serious? - No! No, no, no.
- Don't! OK, um.
We should probably take some time.
You should speak to your ex-wife, discuss how this might affect your daughter.
- I'll see you tomorrow.
- OK.
Come on, Connor, you better get moving! Come on, we're going to be late.
Oh, babe, babe, I laid out your blue suit.
Yeah, I'm wearing the black one.
Why would you wear the black one when I like the blue one? Why would you lay out my clothes at all? - I'm not a child.
- But I love you in the blue one.
It looks great in photos.
Well, you're going to have to learn to love me in the black one.
Paige, come on, get ready.
We're going to be late.
I'm not going.
What? Why? Look, Paige, today isn't about us.
It's about Connor and Tahlia.
I really don't want to ruin their day by rocking up alone and drawing attention.
Is that the only reason, you don't want to go alone? - What? - No, no.
I get it! You're a professional footy player now.
You can't go to a party without your plus-one.
Babe, I'm worried about Jessie.
I can't get a hold of her.
I don't blame her.
If I was having a baby with another bloke, I'd go underground, too.
- You're being judgy, are you? - Not at all.
- These ones? - Yeah.
Could you hurry up? Today is not the day to be late for Tahlia.
Part of me is intrigued to see what would happen if we were.
Nothing good, I can assure you.
Well, nothing is set up.
Why are you so calm? Can you just give us a minute? Thanks.
I want to ask you a question.
Now? Do you want a mirrored dance floor? Is that a trick question? No.
Do you want one? No, I really don't.
Then fuck it.
In 50 years, I am not going to look back and think, "Oh, those roses were perfect.
" I'm going to look back, and I'm going to think of you.
We don't need some stupid, multi-tiered, floral candelabra.
I won't even wear the big dress.
I love you! Connor, let's get married today.
No.
What? Why? I just haven't felt right since Jack.
And there's so much pressure from the club.
Oh, babe I slept with Kath.
What? About a month ago.
I'm so sorry.
How many times? Once, just once.
Twice.
I know I am an idiot.
I understand if you want to call the whole thing off.
Is that what you want? I don't know what I'm doing, Tahls.
Tell me what to do.
You're going to pull yourself together.
And walk out there and marry me.
Today.
- Hello.
- Hi, yourself.
We got 15 minutes.
(DOORBELL RINGS) - Oh, shit! - Are you serious? The babysitter, she's here early.
Um, can you show Carvey in? Introduce her to the kids and show her around? - What? Can't you? - No, Trav! I've only got half my face on.
- Um alright - Thank you.
- Carvey! Hey, how are you? - Good, thanks.
Good! Come on in.
Front door, playroom, Mitchell, menace.
Abby, it depends on the day.
- Kids, say hi to Carvey.
- Hi.
- Good.
- Hey.
Study, hallway.
Bedroom, bathroom.
Laundry.
Oh, kids' bedrooms, boom, boom.
We have lounge room.
Kitchen.
Dinner's in the fridge.
Microwave for six minutes, no more, no less.
Got it down to a fine art.
Dinner at 6:30.
Half an hour of TV, nothing weird.
Bed at 7:30.
Mitchell will put up a fight.
If he does, just give him a little bit of a smack.
Ah, I'm joking.
Don't.
I'll call Child Services.
Ooh, number's on the fridge.
We'll be home by 11:00.
Thank you, and have a good night.
(MOANS) I was in the next room! If I'm in the general vicinity, I expect, at the very least, an invitation to any downtown activity.
There's no time, Trav.
It's quicker without you.
Excuse me.
Oh, damn it! You can go if you're ready.
He'll be fine.
- Thank you.
- No, don't! It's OK, baby.
No! No! - (CRIES) - (PHONE RINGS) Hi, you've reached Nate Savo.
I'm probably doing something wildly interesting.
Please leave a message at the tone.
(PHONE CHIMES) Hey, are you close? I go to go back for an emergency surgery.
I'm so sorry, Jess.
Ah, I got the call this morning.
I know you must be disappointed.
I really wanted to be there.
Did you? What? Did you want to be here? Yeah, of course.
So you won't mind if I mention your name to people? Of course not.
If I tell them we're having a baby together? So you didn't really want to be here, did you, Nate? Jessie, I'm just Not ready? Not my problem.
(SIGHS) (WATER DRIPS) Thanks for coming, Mum.
Wouldn't miss my only son's engagement party.
- Tahlia.
- Diane.
Oh, I see your blood diamonds finally arrived.
Right on schedule.
It's less elaborate than I imagined.
Wouldn't want to be too predictable.
- Heaven forbid! - Mm-hmm.
- So how do we do this? - Just smile and nod.
And get through it.
- Hey - Hello.
- Hi! - Hi! Did I miss the flower candelabra? - Mm-mm.
- You OK? - Yeah.
- Champagne? Yes.
A magnum, actually.
On it.
Congratulations, you two.
Ah, thank you, Brian.
You look gorgeous as usual.
- Chuffed for you, mate.
- Thanks.
Ah! You look beautiful! I will smile at functions.
I will laugh when people are watching.
But mark my words, I will destroy you.
- Tahlia - The clock is ticking, Kath Rickards.
And you're about to blow the fuck up.
I'm so happy you could come! I turn into the show The air is loud, it's crowded Everyone's there, you think I want them I don't want them, I don't care They're wondering what they could have made of me They think if I get to the ballroom in time? If I cross the finish line? There's all these people in the room.
Holy shit! - Hi! - You're incredible.
Hey, I'm sorry.
I thought I'd be underdressed.
- You look - Magnificent.
So what are you? Are we are we telling people? I'm having a baby.
And-and you're I'm doing it alone.
You know people are going to assume that Whatever they want.
You are glowing! It's sweat.
I am definitely sweating.
I hope some things arise are going to cause All our stars are born to die.
Trav! Where are we going? Just, ah What are you doing? Look, I get it.
We're busy, that life is hectic.
And for some unknown reason, we can't find a real babysitter.
- Well, I think we both know - Ah, no, not finished! I know who I married.
A force of nature.
But I don't want to lose us, right? I'm not asking you to pull back from work.
I'm just saying let's get a little inventive.
Look, I love the shit out of you.
And if this is the only alone time we can find, then you know what? I'm down if you are.
Ah, I've missed you! (CLEARS THROAT) Hi.
Can I please have your attention? Firstly, thank you all for coming.
Connor and I are thrilled to have you all here.
So thrilled, in fact, we've got a little surprise for you.
(CROWD MURMURS) Connor and I are getting married today! (CHEERS) That explains his form.
OK.
If we could all please clear a path for him.
- Oh, you are kidding me.
- What? She's going to make him walk down the aisle.
(GIGGLES) A little encouragement, people.
Come on! (APPLAUDING) What's that? (LAUGHS) Of course, she would.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! - What? What do you think you're doing? You're not going anywhere until we are finished.
- I'm not even that good mates with him anyway.
- Nuh! - TAHLIA: Are we ready? - BOTH: Yes! - Yes! - (BOTH PANT) We've both had doubts about this relationship.
And we've both done some pretty shitty things to each other.
But for better or worse, I want to make this work with you because I love you.
And I understand you better than anyone else.
I know I've let you down.
Tried to push you away.
No matter what I've done, you never left me.
I haven't.
Some powerful and unusual vows.
It's my pleasure to pronounce you husband and wife.
Tahlia, you may now kiss your beautiful groom.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUDING) - Let the music play - Let the music play Weddings, hey? (LAUGHS) Yes! Yes! (LAUGHS) Congratulations, mate.
Ripper of a wedding.
- I loved the vows.
They really hit home for me.
- Yeah.
Really? I was worried it might have sounded unrehearsed.
No, no, no, no, it was poetic.
You, two.
No wonder you've been all over the place, trying to keep that secret under wraps.
Yeah, a bit of a surprise for me, too.
Were you involved in this? In more ways than you can imagine.
In fact, Kath's already given Connor our wedding present.
That's my Kath.
Always one step ahead of the game.
- Ah, beer? - No, no, no, no, no, hang on.
I want to get a photo.
I want to remember this moment for the rest of my life.
Come on, Kath.
Let the music play.
Connor, come and have a photo with your mother! Oh, you too, Brian.
- She terrifies me.
- Yeah.
Just hear me out.
It was a mistake.
A mistake that every day I wish I could take back.
You mean more to me than you know, Tahlia.
I know saying I'm sorry is just not going to cut it, so just tell me what I can do to make this better.
I'll do it.
Nothing.
We're done.
Do what you want, do what you want, do what you want I've been telling Brian what a marvellous job he's been doing.
Do what you want, do what you want Do what you want Do-do you want, do you.
Who's that with Lauren? Strength and conditioning coach for the Dogs.
Lauren's fraternising with the enemy.
Speaking of which I'm in the market for a new divorce lawyer.
Another one? Oh, mate, what are you thinking? Mate What about Maddy Cochrane? And don't let that smile fool you.
She's ruthless.
Look at you! Hey, you mind if I cut in? - Oh! - Yeah.
- Hey, no, no, no, I mean with you, mate.
- Oh! (LAUGHS) Alright.
Get up! I got you.
You ready? (CHEERS) I hate that we're not happy.
I thought all of this would be a lot simpler, but You're living your dream, Dan.
Yeah.
But my head's been so far up my ass, I know I think what you're doing is extraordinary.
And, yeah, there's bound to be collateral damage.
It's naive to think there won't be.
Yeah, but I asked you to come here.
I chose to come here because I love you.
And I believe in you.
And I want incredible things for you.
- For us.
- For us.
I don't want to lose you, Paige.
- I don't want to lose us.
- Neither do I.
He's world class, mate.
His form in the '02 Grand Final was impeccable.
You're dreaming, mate! No bloody way! How we tracking? Pretty good.
Get him another drink, Kath.
Let his hair down a little bit.
Alright, ten minutes.
Then I'm getting a cab.
Can I have a whiskey, neat, please? Hey.
I was just going to have one more.
Our little secret.
- Just whatever you got on tap.
Cheers.
- Thank you.
I've been meaning to thank you.
For looking out for Jessie.
It really means a lot.
Yeah.
Well, she means a lot.
She looks beautiful tonight.
Yeah.
Rusty, I want you to know that we're tight-lipped, OK? The Vault, the girls call it.
And now that I know everything, I can help.
I just wish I'd known sooner.
I might have been able to prevent a lot of heartache.
You know I'm sorry.
And I would have come to you a lot earlier, but I knew Brian hadn't told you yet.
Things got out of hand.
You were acting like you were the only one in this.
You have no idea what this has been like for me! You blew up my world without a word! You crawled back to your bullshit marriage, and you left me with nothing! That was the last thing that I said to him.
(SCREAMS) Help.
Help! Jack! Jack! You and Jack were in love.
I miss him so much.
I would like the Southern Jets to start a foundation in Jack's name.
You have to make this go away.
You know you'd have to tell them everything.
You would have to tell them about Jack and Rusty.
But do you love him? He's the baby's father.
Dad is going to pass his fitness test with flying colours.
And I'm going to help Andrew extricate his assets from yet another messy marriage.
The reason that he needs an urgent hush-hush divorce turned up at the meeting.
Holy shit! - You're not playing this week.
- Oh! After everything you've done, everything we've done for that club (PLAYERS CHATTERING) Dan, this is Brody.
Brody, Dan.
Hey, man, great to finally meet you.
- Great game! - So Brody, what do you do? I want to know details.
First time, did she lead? Did you? And geographically, I mean, who was where, pelvis-wise? I know your standards are pretty low, but this is rock bottom even for you.
I just want you to know that it's not your fault.
I just thought that you might want to know that your captain has been fucking your wife.
He's gay.
So why didn't you tell me? I gave him my word.
We tell each other everything.
Not this time.
I am preparing to launch my new men's fragrance line, Connor by Tahlia.
Why don't you just get a branding iron and burn it into my forehead? This has to be the last time you and I discuss what happened between us in any way, shape, or form.
Is there anything else you haven't told me? Not off the top of my head, no.
- Anything you haven't told me? - Nuh.
You're smart and fresh.
You should be working out how to play to your strengths.
Find your brand, and make some extra money.
I'm not into you hijacking my teammates' personal shit so that you can get strangers to follow you online.
- I'm pregnant.
- (ALL LAUGH) - What? - Congratulations.
I want to look after you, Jess.
Come to Queensland with me.
Did you, or did you not, film Yasmine? - I did.
- We are unable to offer you anymore work.
I've been a wild dog in this here part of town No gunslinger, no foe could bring me down, down Paige Dunkeley.
Yeah "Whole Way Hanno", I miss ya, too.
Um, I I was just wondering if you needed a relief teacher this lovely Wednesday.
Nuh.
Okay.
Well, if you do, you know where to find me.
Suse! You catch the game on the weekend? Yeah, Round ten, smashed it.
Hey, um, I'm just calling about some relief.
Yeah, yeah, it's been a whole month.
Toni can't say I'm not consistent.
You know, I-I'm quick at adapting to change, and open to any other roles.
What roles? I'm not sure I have the appropriate training to run a sex-Ed class, but-but I do have experience in that area if it helps.
(CRUNCHES) (BACKGROUND MUSIC SLOWS DOWN TO A STOP) (MOBILE CHIMES) Work? Kinda.
What's with the phone? I'm working.
Every time I turn around, you're dit-dit-dit-dit-dit.
That's a bit rich! At least I'm not Ah, sorry, wh-what is that? Checking your skin folds and tap-tap-tapping on your fitness app.
Well, it don't look like that.
You examine every inch of your body every minute of every day.
I have a running commentary on your bowel movements.
That's a lie, and you know it.
(MOBILE CHIMES) See? Email.
Work.
Yeah.
Well, you got lucky.
I've gotta call Brody.
Why, where you going? No, you're not going anywhere.
Release me! I've got to get ready.
Well, don't change, Paige.
I'm actually really digging the homeless look.
Adrian will be here at 8:30.
I've given him a quick rundown over the phone, but just give him a tour of the house, introduce him to the kids.
- Oh, should I cook the fish? - Fish, yes.
But smell it first.
- I'm unsure of what's happening there.
- Alright.
Mwah! Mm.
No, fold it up, Trav, there's no time.
Babe, I'm dying here.
Ew! Mitchell used my toothbrush again! - Oh! - I thought it was mine.
Oh, I am so late, but I love you, mwah, and I love you.
Hang on, what time are you going to be home? And I love you! Morning.
Morning What are you doing? Oh, thanks.
(GIGGLES) (GROWLS) (BOTH CHUCKLE QUIETLY) That's your master plan, is it? No.
It worked well, didn't it? There's loads of room for improvement.
- Yeah, well, I'm open to suggestions.
- Mmm.
Just hang on.
- You alright? - Yeah! Roll over.
Hey, hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Do you mind if we just Yeah, yeah.
Let's take it slowly.
Yeah.
Ok, so flowers on the table and the bar.
We want a floral candelabra at the entrance.
We definitely want a mirrored dance floor, and two deck changers.
- Deck changers? - Yeah.
We're gonna we're gonna start inside with a cocktail set-up.
We're going to move it to the garden for an outdoor reception.
- With fairy lights.
- No fairy lights.
- Right, no fairy lights.
- No, no, no.
- Fierce elegance.
- Got it.
On it.
Totally know what you mean.
"Fierce elegance?" It's us, babe.
It's you and me.
Is it? (SIGHS) Do you mind giving us a moment? - Of course.
- Thank you.
Now what's happening? How are you feeling? If you don't love it, just just tell me.
I want you to be happy.
It's just that if this is our engagement, how big's the wedding gonna be? Big.
Hey, this tap doesn't turn off properly.
Oh, just put that bowl under it.
I'll use it to water the plants.
No, I can fix it.
You got any washers? Yeah.
Um, Jack used to keep stuff under the sink.
Yep (SIGHS) So it's a bye-weekend, and Tahlia and Connor are having their engagement party.
Ah, let me guess.
Small, tasteful, just a handful of close friends and family.
- You should come.
- To an event? - With you? - Yeah.
As what? - My date.
- (CHUCKLES) Some guy I'm seeing.
Hey, does this mean What? Queensland? - You're serious? - Yeah, I'm serious.
Oh! Real clothes? Yeah, Brody and I are talking school strategy.
Well, all hail, Brody.
Gees, you look great.
Right.
Well, I'll leave you to it.
(CONFIRMATION CHIME) (NOTIFICATIONS DING REPEATEDLY) - Speak to me! - I think I'm being trolled.
So, they liked all my photos, and then I posted a selfie this morning Mmm, I saw it, loved it, liked it.
.
.
yeah, and then they left some ambiguous comment on it, and I can't tell if they're joking or Well, what did it say? "it's Friday.
" It is Friday.
Yeah, I know, but my post said "Sure feels like a Monday.
" Oh.
Well, do they have any photos? - Nuh.
- Troll! I'm offended, but I'm not entirely sure why! It's just Block, delete, move on.
- Yeah, but - Do not agitate them.
They move in packs.
They're like hyenas.
(MOBILE CLICKS) Paige? Do not feed the trolls! You know what? Nah.
If they've got a problem with me, they can unfollow me.
Yeah.
No, that is not how it works.
You're right.
If they've got a problem with me, they can say it to my face.
Don't! - (MOBILE BEEPS) - Sent.
Coming out is daunting as it is, let alone when you're in the spotlight.
When did you know you were gay? It's not like I wake up one morning, and thought, you know, "I guess I'm gay.
" This is this is who I am.
Brian Rickards prides himself on being a hand's on coach.
He didn't want to support you through this? Coming out was my decision.
I wanted to do it alone.
It's got nothing to do with Brian.
(VIDEO REWINDS) It's got nothing to do with Brian.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- Listen.
I - (MOBILE CHIMES) Yeah? Go, get it.
- (BEEPS) - Two secs.
Hey, mate.
What? No! No idea.
No, no.
It's alright.
We'll deal with it.
Hey! What are you guys doing here? You're kidding me.
I was hot.
I took my jacket off for like three seconds.
- Not your fault.
- Bloody paps.
He's threatened to sell them, unless, of course, we pay him out.
Look, the way I see it, we have a few options.
We can buy the pics, give you some more time.
Or we make a statement to get ahead of the story.
You're in your second trimester.
I know it's hard, but you can't hide it forever.
This way, at least we can control the narrative.
And we should discuss how that's going to look.
Jack and I have been trying for some time.
We have to mention the club.
I'll get Brian to make a statement about how the Southern Jets - plan to support you.
- No, I don't think that's a good idea.
Um The baby's not Jack's.
- I met Nate about 18 months ago.
- (MOBILE CHIMES) We fell in love.
Look, I know what you guys are thinking, but it's No, no.
Did did Jack know? Yes, yes! God, yes, he knew everything.
I never lied to Jack.
Our marriage was it was over.
More or less.
We were going to separate during the off-season.
But Honey.
(MOBILE CHIMES) I just want this to stop.
First Jack, and then all the rumours with Rusty.
I mean, what? Now I'm supposed to tell him I'm pregnant with another man's kid? What do I say to JJ? You have nothing to be ashamed of.
You and Jack are the only ones that know the truth.
No one else has the right to judge you.
What do you want to do, Jess? I can't hide this.
Whatever you decide, we're going to be behind you 100%.
I know it's a really big decision.
We just don't have much time.
I don't know.
I have to talk to Nate.
I can buy you 24 hours.
That's it.
Thank you.
Come here.
- You're not hanging around? - I wish I could.
Unfortunately, this pap isn't the only pyromaniac I have to deal with today.
See ya.
- Listen.
- Don't make a scene.
You should see the engagement party.
Tahlia is in.
All of her is in.
I need to tell her.
It would break her.
- It would break the club.
- It would ruin your career.
I don't care! I'm going crazy! I'm looking at flowers and candles, and all I can think about is you.
Don't you threaten me.
Don't you fucking threaten me! No-one can know about this! Do you understand? Do you understand, Connor? This engagement party, it's not your whole relationship.
You're nervous.
That's understandable.
It's human.
Don't blow up your whole life over it.
You're missing my point about me thinking about you.
- It will pass.
- Footy isn't everything.
I'd give it up for you.
Well, that's the difference.
I wouldn't.
Well, who is he? How did you meet? His name's Nate and his daughter bit JJ.
(LAUGHS) What? I get this call from JJ's day-care, and they're like, "JJ's been bitten.
" So I race down there, livid.
I can't even remember driving.
To find this guy sitting in the office.
All I can remember is him laughing.
Until I finally come to, and I've been verbally abusing him - for a solid ten minutes.
- (LAUGHS).
I'd pay good money to see that.
Well, bite my son and you can see it for free.
Anyway, he asked me for coffee.
And that was that.
Yeah.
He's kind, generous.
And I'm so in love with him it's sickening.
- Oh! - (LAUGHS) And, um, does he know the baby is his? Yeah.
He's asked me and JJ to move to Queensland with him.
Get away from all the press.
Oh.
And all your friends.
I'm not trying to convince you to stay.
But I just want to be sure.
Is that what you want? It really is.
Then I'm so happy for you.
(GIGGLES) I hear on the email grapevine that old mate Silky Steve got the boot.
Well, he was offered a job at another school.
- Awesome.
Good for him.
- Mm-hmm.
I guess that means that there's a full-time position just rolling around waiting for good old Paige to snap it up.
Am I right? I'm sure Toni would love to have you back.
Jim, on the other hand Look, I know I'm not an easy sell.
I stuffed up.
Massively.
But Toni backed me, and I let her down.
This is my opportunity to prove that she wasn't wrong about me.
I need this.
Fine, I'll risk my life, and talk to Toni.
- Really? - I'm not making any promises.
I have to go head-to-head with Jim.
Ah, confrontation, not my forte.
We just need to get your confidence up.
I've actually called a face-to-face with a troll.
I'm going to tell them to stop.
Ho! I could never do something like that.
You're about to.
The trick is to get in and out without being mean.
You can be assertive, but don't engage on their level.
Kind of like dealing with 15-year-olds? - Yeah, exactly.
- Yeah.
- Oh, that's not him, is it? - Don't think so.
This way.
Hi, are you Izo.
I'm Paige.
This is my friend Brody.
Um, look.
You seem like a good person.
Well, we just thought You might have a problem with me and what I put out into the world.
What are you talking about? You wrote "it's Friday.
" It is Friday.
You're uncomfortably blunt in communication.
And you like all my photos.
- Well, I like you.
- You don't really know me.
- No, you do not.
- You're from Casterton.
A school teacher.
You want to help people.
And you stood up for Rusty O'Reilly.
That was pretty cool.
(LAUGHS) (DOOR CLOSES) Hello? Oh, hey! How was your day? I have some bad No, unfortunate news.
Adrian, our new nanny is no longer.
Shit! Trav! He came highly recommended! Just offer him more money.
Money can fix many things, but not this.
He may have walked in on me in the midst of some personal time.
- Wait.
What? Where were you? - Here.
No, no, no, before you get angry, just hear me out.
- It takes ten minutes to walk to the park, - Oh! And the kids play for no less than 45 minutes.
And then, it's a ten-minute walk home.
That is a luxurious amount of time.
I believe Adrian's poor organisation skills are to blame.
If he didn't forget Abby's hat, I would have been well and truly finished.
I cannot believe you, Travis Cochrane! You think you're the only one suffering from our lack of sexy time? I am considering getting the bus to work solely for the vibrations, but I am handling it.
- And you should be, too.
- But Stop costing us excellent babysitters! Final push! Push, push! - (GROANS) - That's it.
Looking forward to the party tomorrow, mate.
Ah, I'd be shitting myself if I were you.
- It must feel good, but.
- What? Just like knowing she's the one.
How's Paige? Ah, she's still looking for a job.
It's been tough.
Sorry, mate.
(MOBILE RINGS) I'll leave you to it.
Yeah.
Hey, Skip.
You all good, mate? - Yeah, yeah.
- You've been a big quiet lately.
I just got a lot on.
You haven't been yourself at training.
- Yeah, you know? - Your form hasn't been great.
If this engagement stuff is taking your mind off the game It's not.
Well, give us a yell if it does.
I'll get Kath to have a cheeky word with Natalia and get you out.
Alright, get into it.
Look what arrived.
Oh! - How'd it all go with Brody? - There might be something.
Don't don't get excited.
We still have to get Jim over the line first.
Containing excitement.
The thing is Brody doesn't really do confrontation, so afterwards we met up with one of my followers.
Weirdly direct.
A follower? Uh, it's not like that.
I thought she was trolling me.
- You met with a troll? - Oh, anti-climax.
OK.
She wasn't even a troll.
But-but, Paige, she could have been a reporter.
Um, relax.
She doesn't even know who you are.
Paige, she would have no idea who you were if you weren't my girlfriend.
I'm sorry.
Look, social media, it's still media.
If anything comes out about me, the club might You know, there is a world outside of football, right? I mean, maybe.
Just this once, this isn't about you.
Or the 20-plus guys I come runner up to every week.
OK, you've really got to get over that.
It is my job.
That's right! It's a job! It's just a job.
It's more than just a job! It's my career! You'd get that if you had one! I did in Casterton, and I gave it up for a couple of reasons, - one of them being you! - Yeah? Well, maybe that was a mistake.
That's how you're breaking up with me? No! I don't know.
I don't think so.
You don't "think" so? Well, just back home, this was just so much easier.
- With all this shit, I - Are you serious? The girls think we should get ahead of the story.
- Tell the truth.
That way - Hold on.
You told the girls about me? Yeah.
Well, with this and the engagement party Yeah.
No, I get it.
It's just I thought that was something we would decide together.
I know.
But we're kind of pressed for time here.
S-so So, um, what can we do about these? Can we pay them out or something? There's no guarantee they're not going to sell the photos to someone else.
I have a daughter, Jess.
This is fast.
We have to tell the truth eventually.
Otherwise, people are going to assume it's Jack's baby.
Are you serious? - No! No, no, no.
- Don't! OK, um.
We should probably take some time.
You should speak to your ex-wife, discuss how this might affect your daughter.
- I'll see you tomorrow.
- OK.
Come on, Connor, you better get moving! Come on, we're going to be late.
Oh, babe, babe, I laid out your blue suit.
Yeah, I'm wearing the black one.
Why would you wear the black one when I like the blue one? Why would you lay out my clothes at all? - I'm not a child.
- But I love you in the blue one.
It looks great in photos.
Well, you're going to have to learn to love me in the black one.
Paige, come on, get ready.
We're going to be late.
I'm not going.
What? Why? Look, Paige, today isn't about us.
It's about Connor and Tahlia.
I really don't want to ruin their day by rocking up alone and drawing attention.
Is that the only reason, you don't want to go alone? - What? - No, no.
I get it! You're a professional footy player now.
You can't go to a party without your plus-one.
Babe, I'm worried about Jessie.
I can't get a hold of her.
I don't blame her.
If I was having a baby with another bloke, I'd go underground, too.
- You're being judgy, are you? - Not at all.
- These ones? - Yeah.
Could you hurry up? Today is not the day to be late for Tahlia.
Part of me is intrigued to see what would happen if we were.
Nothing good, I can assure you.
Well, nothing is set up.
Why are you so calm? Can you just give us a minute? Thanks.
I want to ask you a question.
Now? Do you want a mirrored dance floor? Is that a trick question? No.
Do you want one? No, I really don't.
Then fuck it.
In 50 years, I am not going to look back and think, "Oh, those roses were perfect.
" I'm going to look back, and I'm going to think of you.
We don't need some stupid, multi-tiered, floral candelabra.
I won't even wear the big dress.
I love you! Connor, let's get married today.
No.
What? Why? I just haven't felt right since Jack.
And there's so much pressure from the club.
Oh, babe I slept with Kath.
What? About a month ago.
I'm so sorry.
How many times? Once, just once.
Twice.
I know I am an idiot.
I understand if you want to call the whole thing off.
Is that what you want? I don't know what I'm doing, Tahls.
Tell me what to do.
You're going to pull yourself together.
And walk out there and marry me.
Today.
- Hello.
- Hi, yourself.
We got 15 minutes.
(DOORBELL RINGS) - Oh, shit! - Are you serious? The babysitter, she's here early.
Um, can you show Carvey in? Introduce her to the kids and show her around? - What? Can't you? - No, Trav! I've only got half my face on.
- Um alright - Thank you.
- Carvey! Hey, how are you? - Good, thanks.
Good! Come on in.
Front door, playroom, Mitchell, menace.
Abby, it depends on the day.
- Kids, say hi to Carvey.
- Hi.
- Good.
- Hey.
Study, hallway.
Bedroom, bathroom.
Laundry.
Oh, kids' bedrooms, boom, boom.
We have lounge room.
Kitchen.
Dinner's in the fridge.
Microwave for six minutes, no more, no less.
Got it down to a fine art.
Dinner at 6:30.
Half an hour of TV, nothing weird.
Bed at 7:30.
Mitchell will put up a fight.
If he does, just give him a little bit of a smack.
Ah, I'm joking.
Don't.
I'll call Child Services.
Ooh, number's on the fridge.
We'll be home by 11:00.
Thank you, and have a good night.
(MOANS) I was in the next room! If I'm in the general vicinity, I expect, at the very least, an invitation to any downtown activity.
There's no time, Trav.
It's quicker without you.
Excuse me.
Oh, damn it! You can go if you're ready.
He'll be fine.
- Thank you.
- No, don't! It's OK, baby.
No! No! - (CRIES) - (PHONE RINGS) Hi, you've reached Nate Savo.
I'm probably doing something wildly interesting.
Please leave a message at the tone.
(PHONE CHIMES) Hey, are you close? I go to go back for an emergency surgery.
I'm so sorry, Jess.
Ah, I got the call this morning.
I know you must be disappointed.
I really wanted to be there.
Did you? What? Did you want to be here? Yeah, of course.
So you won't mind if I mention your name to people? Of course not.
If I tell them we're having a baby together? So you didn't really want to be here, did you, Nate? Jessie, I'm just Not ready? Not my problem.
(SIGHS) (WATER DRIPS) Thanks for coming, Mum.
Wouldn't miss my only son's engagement party.
- Tahlia.
- Diane.
Oh, I see your blood diamonds finally arrived.
Right on schedule.
It's less elaborate than I imagined.
Wouldn't want to be too predictable.
- Heaven forbid! - Mm-hmm.
- So how do we do this? - Just smile and nod.
And get through it.
- Hey - Hello.
- Hi! - Hi! Did I miss the flower candelabra? - Mm-mm.
- You OK? - Yeah.
- Champagne? Yes.
A magnum, actually.
On it.
Congratulations, you two.
Ah, thank you, Brian.
You look gorgeous as usual.
- Chuffed for you, mate.
- Thanks.
Ah! You look beautiful! I will smile at functions.
I will laugh when people are watching.
But mark my words, I will destroy you.
- Tahlia - The clock is ticking, Kath Rickards.
And you're about to blow the fuck up.
I'm so happy you could come! I turn into the show The air is loud, it's crowded Everyone's there, you think I want them I don't want them, I don't care They're wondering what they could have made of me They think if I get to the ballroom in time? If I cross the finish line? There's all these people in the room.
Holy shit! - Hi! - You're incredible.
Hey, I'm sorry.
I thought I'd be underdressed.
- You look - Magnificent.
So what are you? Are we are we telling people? I'm having a baby.
And-and you're I'm doing it alone.
You know people are going to assume that Whatever they want.
You are glowing! It's sweat.
I am definitely sweating.
I hope some things arise are going to cause All our stars are born to die.
Trav! Where are we going? Just, ah What are you doing? Look, I get it.
We're busy, that life is hectic.
And for some unknown reason, we can't find a real babysitter.
- Well, I think we both know - Ah, no, not finished! I know who I married.
A force of nature.
But I don't want to lose us, right? I'm not asking you to pull back from work.
I'm just saying let's get a little inventive.
Look, I love the shit out of you.
And if this is the only alone time we can find, then you know what? I'm down if you are.
Ah, I've missed you! (CLEARS THROAT) Hi.
Can I please have your attention? Firstly, thank you all for coming.
Connor and I are thrilled to have you all here.
So thrilled, in fact, we've got a little surprise for you.
(CROWD MURMURS) Connor and I are getting married today! (CHEERS) That explains his form.
OK.
If we could all please clear a path for him.
- Oh, you are kidding me.
- What? She's going to make him walk down the aisle.
(GIGGLES) A little encouragement, people.
Come on! (APPLAUDING) What's that? (LAUGHS) Of course, she would.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! - What? What do you think you're doing? You're not going anywhere until we are finished.
- I'm not even that good mates with him anyway.
- Nuh! - TAHLIA: Are we ready? - BOTH: Yes! - Yes! - (BOTH PANT) We've both had doubts about this relationship.
And we've both done some pretty shitty things to each other.
But for better or worse, I want to make this work with you because I love you.
And I understand you better than anyone else.
I know I've let you down.
Tried to push you away.
No matter what I've done, you never left me.
I haven't.
Some powerful and unusual vows.
It's my pleasure to pronounce you husband and wife.
Tahlia, you may now kiss your beautiful groom.
(CHEERING AND APPLAUDING) - Let the music play - Let the music play Weddings, hey? (LAUGHS) Yes! Yes! (LAUGHS) Congratulations, mate.
Ripper of a wedding.
- I loved the vows.
They really hit home for me.
- Yeah.
Really? I was worried it might have sounded unrehearsed.
No, no, no, no, it was poetic.
You, two.
No wonder you've been all over the place, trying to keep that secret under wraps.
Yeah, a bit of a surprise for me, too.
Were you involved in this? In more ways than you can imagine.
In fact, Kath's already given Connor our wedding present.
That's my Kath.
Always one step ahead of the game.
- Ah, beer? - No, no, no, no, no, hang on.
I want to get a photo.
I want to remember this moment for the rest of my life.
Come on, Kath.
Let the music play.
Connor, come and have a photo with your mother! Oh, you too, Brian.
- She terrifies me.
- Yeah.
Just hear me out.
It was a mistake.
A mistake that every day I wish I could take back.
You mean more to me than you know, Tahlia.
I know saying I'm sorry is just not going to cut it, so just tell me what I can do to make this better.
I'll do it.
Nothing.
We're done.
Do what you want, do what you want, do what you want I've been telling Brian what a marvellous job he's been doing.
Do what you want, do what you want Do what you want Do-do you want, do you.
Who's that with Lauren? Strength and conditioning coach for the Dogs.
Lauren's fraternising with the enemy.
Speaking of which I'm in the market for a new divorce lawyer.
Another one? Oh, mate, what are you thinking? Mate What about Maddy Cochrane? And don't let that smile fool you.
She's ruthless.
Look at you! Hey, you mind if I cut in? - Oh! - Yeah.
- Hey, no, no, no, I mean with you, mate.
- Oh! (LAUGHS) Alright.
Get up! I got you.
You ready? (CHEERS) I hate that we're not happy.
I thought all of this would be a lot simpler, but You're living your dream, Dan.
Yeah.
But my head's been so far up my ass, I know I think what you're doing is extraordinary.
And, yeah, there's bound to be collateral damage.
It's naive to think there won't be.
Yeah, but I asked you to come here.
I chose to come here because I love you.
And I believe in you.
And I want incredible things for you.
- For us.
- For us.
I don't want to lose you, Paige.
- I don't want to lose us.
- Neither do I.
He's world class, mate.
His form in the '02 Grand Final was impeccable.
You're dreaming, mate! No bloody way! How we tracking? Pretty good.
Get him another drink, Kath.
Let his hair down a little bit.
Alright, ten minutes.
Then I'm getting a cab.
Can I have a whiskey, neat, please? Hey.
I was just going to have one more.
Our little secret.
- Just whatever you got on tap.
Cheers.
- Thank you.
I've been meaning to thank you.
For looking out for Jessie.
It really means a lot.
Yeah.
Well, she means a lot.
She looks beautiful tonight.
Yeah.
Rusty, I want you to know that we're tight-lipped, OK? The Vault, the girls call it.
And now that I know everything, I can help.
I just wish I'd known sooner.
I might have been able to prevent a lot of heartache.
You know I'm sorry.
And I would have come to you a lot earlier, but I knew Brian hadn't told you yet.
Things got out of hand.
You were acting like you were the only one in this.
You have no idea what this has been like for me! You blew up my world without a word! You crawled back to your bullshit marriage, and you left me with nothing! That was the last thing that I said to him.
(SCREAMS) Help.
Help! Jack! Jack! You and Jack were in love.
I miss him so much.
I would like the Southern Jets to start a foundation in Jack's name.
You have to make this go away.
You know you'd have to tell them everything.
You would have to tell them about Jack and Rusty.
But do you love him? He's the baby's father.
Dad is going to pass his fitness test with flying colours.
And I'm going to help Andrew extricate his assets from yet another messy marriage.
The reason that he needs an urgent hush-hush divorce turned up at the meeting.
Holy shit! - You're not playing this week.
- Oh! After everything you've done, everything we've done for that club (PLAYERS CHATTERING) Dan, this is Brody.
Brody, Dan.
Hey, man, great to finally meet you.
- Great game! - So Brody, what do you do? I want to know details.
First time, did she lead? Did you? And geographically, I mean, who was where, pelvis-wise? I know your standards are pretty low, but this is rock bottom even for you.
I just want you to know that it's not your fault.
I just thought that you might want to know that your captain has been fucking your wife.
