Offspring (2010) s07e07 Episode Script

1 - Bierkven Yaklarssen.
- Hello.
Yes.
Your industry is aspirational for us.
- I'd like you to meet my family.
- I would love that.
I have a plan to obsess this guy out of my life.
I just wish Dan was here.
This is exactly the kind of Proudman shenanigan he would've loved.
The secret's already out.
Billy knows, Nina knows, and Will wants to get back together with you.
We have to tell them at the same time.
Maybe I should move back in.
I had sex with Kerry.
NINA: It is with great pleasure that I introduce Professor Margot Lee.
- You are so accomplished! - But look at you.
You're practically running this hospital.
I heard a rumour about the head of obstetrics job.
Why haven't you applied? - They're not gonna want me! - We want you, though.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Offspring 7x07 August 09, 2017 You'll feel a tugging sensation.
Little bit more pressure now.
Almost there.
Look, Mummy, look! (GASPS) I think I love that one more than the last! So lovely, Zoe.
Oh, she's adorable.
Thank you.
Thank God we can bring them into work.
Never see them otherwise.
- What time is your board meeting? - Oh, not for another hour.
All right, here we are.
What a gorgeous thesis! (THINKS) Why am I going for this job I'm not even sure I want? Oh, why, oh, why, oh, why won't you sing? Bring your hips to me, oh, bring your hips Oh, oh, bring your hips to me To me Oh, bring your hips to me, oh, bring your hips Oh, oh, bring your hips to me To me To me Oh, why, oh, why Oh, why won't you sing? There we go.
And some crust as Wow! - (CHUCKLES) - NINA: Hi.
- Yes? - Yes.
- Yes! - (ALL LAUGH) You nervous? No.
I've decided I'm not gonna bother with nerves.
Good for you.
It's just another day at work.
The interview's just one part of it.
It's gonna be a valuable experience and if I don't get the promotion, then I'll just keep doing the job that I genuinely love, so - So, you can't lose.
- Exactly.
And you are already doing the job.
- Mmm.
- (WHISPERS) Zoe, Zoe, Zoe.
Surprise! - (GASPS) - Cupcake! (LAUGHS) - Cupcakes! - Good luck cupcakes.
"Good uck Mum"? Is there something missing? Zoe and I have been here for a little while.
Oh, I love them, cheeky! Thank you.
Right.
Any last-minute tips? Just walk in there like you own the joint, 'cause you do.
And if anyone even looks at you the wrong way What are you gonna do? Ooh, I don't know.
But it won't be pretty.
Don't wee your pants.
- I will try not to.
- It's okay if you do.
- Bye.
- Bye.
- Bye, Mummy! - Bye, darling! Good luck, Mum! (WHISPERS) I think she liked them.
Yeah.
(DOOR CLOSES) Good morning.
Ah! Good morning.
Oh! (CHUCKLES) Aw.
They're from Martin.
What's it say? "I have absolute faith in you.
" We all do.
How you feeling? I've made a decision not to undermine myself so I've decided to feel nothing.
That sounds healthy.
It's really helping with the nerves.
Well, good! Um, look.
I don't want to interrupt.
I just wanna pass on your personalised invitation to Ray's birthday dinner tonight.
(GASPS) Did he make this himself? Mm-hm.
Every single one.
It's taken weeks.
Oooh! (GIGGLES) Black tie? Yeah, sorry.
That's Martin's fault.
Apparently the two of them have been hosting formal dinner parties in the bush.
(CHUCKLES) Look, I told him not everyone's got a full-length gown or a cocktail dress with a hemline below the knee.
Oh, you only turn 10 once.
We'll manage.
- Oh, thank you.
- I can't wait.
And don't underestimate yourself.
Of course.
Yes, we can absolutely do that.
No, not at all.
Thanks again.
Bye.
What was that? That was Bierkven Yaklarssen requesting a lunch meeting today with you.
- Just me? - Mmm.
- Why? - Didn't ask.
- Do you think he's - Interested in you? - Yeah.
- Possibly.
So, is this a business meeting or a date? Could be both.
No, that's not good.
If he's expecting sexy back and forth he'll be sorely disappointed.
I'm suffering dire lack of form.
- Naus - No, I'm not in tune.
I'm misreading all signals, incoming and outgoing.
I cannot be trusted on the flirty tightrope right now.
- Is this about Dan? - Yes.
I'm still reeling from the no-show.
And I can't tell if I'm outraged that he rejected me while I was attempting to reject him, or if I actually really like him.
Well, just treat it like a business meeting and see what he wants.
How did you go with Will, telling him you-know-what last night? I couldn't do it.
Every, every time I try he gets distracted, or I lose my nerve or both, and it's agony.
So, I have asked him and Greg to join me for a walk in the park this afternoon.
It is coming out today no matter what.
Good move, involving the dog.
He'll handle it better in front of Greg.
My thoughts exactly.
- I'll have the pinot, thanks.
- Excellent choice.
I'm fine with water.
Thank you.
Did you know that this is one of my favourite restaurants? It's tempting to say yes.
I make it my business to cater for my clients' preferences, professional and culinary, but actually the truth is less calculated.
It just happens to be a favourite of mine.
Well, you have excellent taste.
As do you.
- Are you a fan of oysters? - Yes.
And no.
I was, but I try not to overindulge when I'm working.
That's a shame.
- Is it? - The share plate's incredible.
I'm sure I could keep down a couple.
I don't want to force you.
Bierkven, I'm sorry.
I find you freakishly attractive.
Even saying your name out loud is exciting, but I'm romantically challenged right now.
My receptors are off and I'm beaming things out in the wrong direction.
And I'm not sure if oysters mean sex or if you're receiving sexual signals from me? I think you got the wrong end of the stick.
I'm incredibly attracted to Kerry in a sexual way, and I didn't want that to impact our potential working relationship.
I will have that pinot.
Um, may I interpret your lack of attraction to me as an indication that we could have a good working relationship? Absolutely.
An associate of mine works for a pharmaceutical company and she mentioned that they're looking for a director of clinical governance.
- And you'd like to be that? - Conflict of interest.
I thought you might like to source some candidates.
This is me scratching your back.
I appreciate the opportunity and will not let you down.
- I feel really silly now.
- Oh, no, don't.
You absolutely did the right thing by coming in.
- It's always best to be sure.
- And we are sure.
As sure as we can be.
The baby's a great size for 36 weeks.
Sorry, I'm just you know, now that it's happening, I'm really - Pretty overwhelmed? - Yes.
(CHUCKLES) I just, I I felt so capable and I was so certain when I decided to do this and I knew I was gonna do it on my own and now I'm just (WHISPERS) I am shit scared.
I was alone when I had my daughter and I was completely terrified of everything.
And the truth is, that terror never really goes away.
- It gets worse.
- Oh, great! (BOTH CHUCKLE) I'm gonna be with you for the birth part.
- Thank you.
- It's a pleasure.
How's the fish? It's confused.
How's the burger? It's pretty uncomfortable.
What are we doing? Trying to be in the same room without hurting each other.
- Well, I'm still hurting.
- I know.
You wanna go down? All right.
- (BARKS) - All right.
Hey, Will.
In the interests of full disclosure, you need to know that while we were separated I had a very brief, uncomfortable situation with another man.
I was drunk, it was wrong, it was a catastrophic momentary lack of judgement and I could never forgive myself if it came between you and I.
Hey.
You had an awful experience with a stranger while we were separated.
How could that possibly come between us? Come here.
- Will, there's actually some - (PHONE RINGS) - Oh.
Sorry.
- That's okay.
Here.
- Can you? - Yeah I can take him.
Yeah.
Sorry.
Yeah.
One sec, one sec.
Richard.
Uh, yeah, of course.
Fantastic, fantastic, mate.
No, absolutely.
Looking forward to it.
Yep.
All right.
Thanks for the call, mate.
Sorry, I just I have to make just one more - Go for it.
- Ah! (PHONE RINGS) Who's that? Will.
- Well, get it.
- I don't want to.
Well, what if I want you to get it? (PHONE RINGS) Hello.
Jimmy! Will.
What's wrong? You sound weird.
Sorry? No, I'm not weird.
You sure? Listen, mate.
I need to talk to you face to face.
It's urgent.
Like today urgent? Like, what are you doing right now? (STAMMERS) I'm just having lunch with Zara.
Can you meet me at The Rose in half an hour? It's important.
Okay.
I'm so sorry, I had to take that call.
It's fine.
I've gotta get back to work anyway.
So, you go and enjoy your time with Jimmy.
- All right.
- I can take him.
- Bye.
- See ya.
All right.
Bye, mate.
Bye, mate.
Bye-bye! He knows.
Was there anything you would have liked to have heard from me when I told you? You're asking me how to tell your brother that you had a party pash and a prod with his girlfriend while you were married to me? I withdraw the question.
Come in.
Billie! - You got a minute? - Um, not really.
I've got my interview in less than an hour.
I knew that.
I'm here to help.
- Are you? - No, I need a favour.
But I'm happy to give you some pointers while I'm here.
Um, well, obviously don't sit like that.
Shoulders back.
Not too far back, don't get the girls involved.
Just nice and natural, fully poised.
Don't forget to breathe.
Really? I perform emergency surgery and you're worried You're not breathing right now.
I would've taken a breath eventually on my own.
No, speak slowly and clearly, and if you can, drop your voice.
Lower tones are more soothing.
- (IN LOW VOICE) How low? - Not that low.
Anything else? Uh, no, I think that's it.
Can we do me? - Very briefly.
- Okay.
Um, you know how Kerry and I are moving into the medical/pharma universe? Well, it's fallen to me to source a director of clinical governance for a global leader in the life sciences industry.
Oh.
Who? I am not at liberty to say.
Tannhauser Pharmaceutical.
- (WHISPERS) Wow.
- Exactly.
Now, I have unearthed two candidates who are both exquisitely qualified and/or available but I still need at least one more name to pad out the field so I'm throwing yours in.
I don't want to apply for a job that I am not interested in.
You're not even getting an interview.
Your sole purpose is to make the other two look good.
You're a filler.
You're like a seat filler at an awards thing.
Sorry, we can do this later, because I have to prepare.
Prepare.
- Centre yourself.
- I was.
Feel your power.
Own your power.
(PHONE NOTIFICATION DINGS) - Text from Dan.
- Ooh.
(READS) "I need to see you.
" No, thank you.
- Is that it? - (PHONE NOTIFICATION DINGS) "Please say you'll meet me for a sidecar at Spartacus.
" What's a sidecar? It's an extremely sophisticated cocktail.
(PHONE NOTIFICATION DINGS) "I need you to know that I would've severed my own arm "to have been there with you.
"I can explain everything if you'll give me the chance.
" Am I an idiot for wanting to hear what he has to say? Maybe.
But I don't blame you for being curious.
I'll go.
But I won't tell him straightaway.
I'm gonna let him spiral into self-doubt first.
Oh, Neens? I would wish you luck but you don't need it.
You are the most capable person I have ever met.
- Oh.
Yep.
- Sit up straight.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- How's your day been? - Okay, yeah.
Well, I think I know Oh.
Can I please get another beer? Whatever's on tap? What are you drinking? Oh, anything.
Beer, thanks.
You wh what do you know? And can we get another serve of your sensational hot wings? - You've gotta try these.
- No, I'm not really hungry.
You can have a taste of mine, but you're gonna want more.
- Okay, give me the wings, thanks.
- You're gonna love 'em.
All right.
Are you okay? Why am I here? Because I wanted to see your face when I told you.
Jimmy's Tacos.
When I sold it to the guy in Hong Kong, well, I built in a little back end in the case of franchise licensing.
Profit participation? Okay, anyway.
Jimmy's tacos is expanding, and, well this is the amount.
I'm gonna split it with you, as a way of saying sorry.
You don't look as happy as I thought you'd be.
No, no, I I just wasn't expecting Look, I just I don't want any bad blood between us.
I am so grateful to be part of this family.
The way you've all embraced me I love you, like a brother.
I don't know what to say.
Oh, you don't have to say it back.
- I mean, you can if you want! - (CHUCKLES) Just kidding, you don't have to say anything.
No.
NINA: Sit up straight.
Girls at ease.
Doesn't matter what happens.
I have nothing to lose.
I really don't care.
Doctor Proudman, please.
Take a seat.
NINA: What is Elvis doing here? (SIGHS) Good morning, everyone.
- ALL: Good afternoon.
- Oh, afternoon! Sorry, I knew that because I just ate lunch.
We have quite a bit to get through and of course you'll have the opportunity to raise any queries you might have at the end of the interview.
Can't wait.
Not can't wait till the end of the interview, just, like, I can't wait to raise any queries I may have.
NINA: Stop talking.
All right, then.
Uh, why do you consider yourself the best person for this position? That's a confronting question because it invites me to either over or undersell myself.
I have built my career here at Saint Francis.
I have a thorough understanding of the processes and the staff members, the culture.
I have respect for the team.
We work well together, which is important, given the nature of our work.
And I am already enjoying very much the challenges of this position.
NINA: Oh, my God.
I do care.
I've gotta get back to work.
Oh, uh, look.
I-I'm worried about your dad.
I can't believe you've let it drag on like this.
Let me guess.
He's sulking like a two-year-old.
Of course he is, and you really upset him and now you need to apologise.
Mum, I'm only gonna explain this one more time.
I haven't upset him.
You keep telling yourself that.
I did the job I was hired to do.
Okay? I didn't do it to upset him.
I did it for Kirsty and I did it for the business.
He's got a problem.
He needs to face it.
I'm asking you to apologise for me.
I'm not apologising.
Sometimes we have to apologise for the sake of peace.
Yes, but that tells him he doesn't need to change.
You're exactly the same, the pair of you! I'm sorry.
Look how easy that was! That's all I'm asking you to say.
Bye, Mum.
So, it didn't get physical? He had no idea.
Oh.
Well, this is disappointing.
Come here.
I thought he was toying with me, trying to get me to say it first but he really had no idea.
And I just sat there, knowing that I didn't have the balls to tell him.
What kind of arsehole does that? What was that for? I've decided how I feel about the incident and obviously I'm not thrilled about what happened with you and Kerry, and when I think about it it makes me feel ugh.
But then then there's another feeling and it's relief.
At least we're even now.
Just kiss me.
Does this mean you're coming home? Yes.
Mmm.
Can I just say, for the record, I'm not sure we are even.
I mean, I was just mostly on the leg.
Mm-hm, mm-hm.
How would you describe your weaknesses? Some of the areas I'm working to improve would be a tendency to overthink.
I can be quite single-minded.
And are you prepared to admit to any genuine weaknesses? I have had some difficulty acknowledging to myself and articulating to others the true extent of my professional ambition.
The prospect of broadening my contribution as permanent head of department excites me very much.
What do you find most frustrating about your current role? - Well, Elvis - Doctor Kwan.
Doctor Kwan, I think we could streamline the integration of patient records.
I think it's worth exploring multiplatform access.
NINA: I am landing this.
- Give me an N! - ALL: N! - Give me an I! - I! - Give me an N! - N! - Give me an A! - A! Nina! The hours don't concern you despite having a young child? No more than I imagine they concern you despite having your young twins.
I hope this isn't condescending.
I do appreciate your concern for my relationship with my child, but I can assure you that I would not be wasting your time or mine if I were unable to tend to both my personal and professional life.
NINA: That is so untrue.
Doesn't matter.
Look at his face.
And do you have any questions or anything you'd like to raise? I'd just like to thank you for the opportunity.
I'm very proud of my work and the relationships I've developed here at Saint Francis.
And I look forward to expanding my role.
(PHONE RINGS) - Hi.
- Did you forget to breathe? Only once.
No one even noticed.
I sat up straight, I spoke clearly and I think I crushed it.
- Oh, we can't say "crushed it".
- Why not? No one over 30 can.
But don't let that slow down the celebration train 'cause hey, hey, hey, woot, woot, go you! Hey, hey, hey, woot, woot? Is that what we are now? Yes.
Also, in breaking news, even if you were dreadful and you don't get the job, don't even worry because you also have an interview with Tannhauser.
What? - I thought I was a seat filler! - Pretty sure you still are.
Billie, whatever you've done, undo it.
I'm hanging up now.
(GASPS) Hello, Nina.
(CHUCKLES) Doctor Kwan.
I'm sorry if my, uh, formality in there was a little bit difficult for you.
No, not at all.
Well, it was a bit difficult.
But I understand.
Well, I'm going to be a colleague of the successful applicant.
Ah.
Oh, you love having power over me.
I find it okay, actually.
Listen.
I shouldn't really be in here.
Don't tell anyone.
This is off the record.
I shouldn't be saying this.
I'm really scared of Schumaker, so no one should know I'm here.
Elvis, I won't tell anyone you've come in here, even though you do so routinely every day for your job.
Nina you blew everyone's socks off.
(BREATHLESSLY) Really? It did feel good.
So, well done.
They're thinking about making the offer very soon, - and I mean very soon.
- Oh.
I was never here.
(GIGGLES) Um hey.
Uh, I didn't hear you come in.
As you were.
Just passing through.
Don't.
Actually, we were wondering if we could ask you something.
I'm just passing through.
I've got a date.
It won't take long.
Okay, go.
Did you wanna sit down? Do I need to? Maybe.
Is it okay if Jason moves in with us, into my room, just for a little while until we save up for a bond? Please? He's got nowhere else to go.
You're just gonna let her do your dirty work for you? No, that that's why I'm here.
I wanna do the dirty work.
And you wanna be here because you've got nowhere else to go.
And I wanna try to be a dad.
This is not the end of the conversation.
There will be lists, provisos and zero of this business on the couch.
- Thank you.
- No worries.
Thank you! Do not thank me.
I have not said yes.
(GIGGLES) Did you bring the grater? I'm sure Geraldine will have one.
But it has to have small holes or the cheese won't work.
The cheese will work no matter what, I promise.
But it has to be perfect.
I know.
It's your first big no kids allowed family dinner.
I'm 10 now.
Double digits, my baby.
And we're here to party.
Come on! Wow, it's good to see you.
I missed you so much.
I'm only here because I thought I might find your explanation entertaining and I happen to feel like a sidecar.
Well, I'm just glad you could make it.
Not for long.
I have a date with a freakishly handsome athlete/poet/billionaire philanthropist, so if you could make this snappy.
Well, I was on my way to see you and meet your family, waiting at a set of lights when a teenager carjacked the lady in front of me.
- Oh, my God.
- He dragged her out of the car and she's screaming, "My baby's in there! My baby's in there!" But he didn't care.
He just took off.
I don't know if I told you, but I was in the force.
- Police force.
- 15 years before I got shot.
The point is, I've seen more than my fair share of high-speed pursuits.
Well, I was a stunt driver at Sandown, so.
So, you'll understand why I had to go after them.
What choice did you have? Well, I followed him, apprehended him, rescued the baby, who turned out to be a labradoodle, and returned him to the safety of his mother's arms.
I'm sorry.
The baby was a dog? A rescue dog.
He was terrified, the poor little fella.
Thank God you were there and no one was hurt.
Well, unfortunately, someone was.
I didn't realise how bad it was until I lost consciousness, and woke up in hospital a week later.
I can't believe you never called me.
He also stole my phone.
You didn't remember my number? I was concussed! Dan, I'm so sorry.
Ah, I don't blame you for moving on so quickly.
Well, I'd assumed you'd died.
I bet you went to a lot of effort.
Champagne, cake, balloons? I did.
If only I'd been running late, you and I could be married by now.
I was gonna propose to you that night.
I would've said yes.
I hope he knows how lucky he is.
You deserve to be happy.
So do you.
I love you, Billie.
Thank you.
I will never forget you.
Nor I you.
NINA: I wonder if I'll hear today.
Come on, monkey.
NINA: Totes smashed it.
Yeah, totes.
- Hello? - Hey! Hey, I'm sorry I'm late.
Did you get my message? I'm not wearing this for the fun of it.
Although now I'm thinking I should take it off.
NINA: Yes.
So I can help Zoe get ready while you get dressed.
- No? - Yes! Yeah, that'd be incredible.
You're incredible.
So, it went well? I think so.
I mean, it's hard to tell what the outcome will be, but I felt confident.
The pressure was exhilarating.
(PARTY CHATTER) - There we go.
- Thank you.
- Delicious.
- WILL: Yum.
Thank you.
Thank you.
WOMAN: Are you giving our futures? No worries.
Came with me.
- What are you up to, mate? - (LAUGHS) NINA: Stop thinking about it.
Probably won't hear until tomorrow now.
Hey, just so you know, if you don't get it, I'm gonna egg the hospital.
(GASPS) You'd do that for me? I'm pretty scrappy.
(LAUGHS) Thanks.
Billie, you all right? I finally understand what it was like for you all this time.
Professionally, I'm on fire, but romantically I'm lost.
I'm confused.
It's like I'm I'm stabbing blindly in the dark.
Um, everybody? (CLEARS THROAT) I just wanna thank you all for being here to help me celebrate the aus-picious occasion of my birthday with me.
Now, if you could please make your way to the dining area, except for the kids.
I've set up a fun room for you all under-10's at the front.
(SQUEALS OF EXCITEMENT) - WOMAN: Trying to get pregnant.
- I am pregnant Thank you.
Hang on, I might just have one.
Cheers.
Hi.
Sorry I'm late.
That is really good.
- Ray.
- Thank you, Ray.
Entrée is served.
- Well done.
- (MURMURS OF EXCITEMENT) - MAN: Oh, yeah.
- WOMAN: This is great.
MAN: That's good, man.
He's completely oblivious.
Billie said she was definitely telling him today.
Well then she A, chickened out, B, told him, he doesn't care, C, told him, he does care, he's an exceptional actor and waiting for the right moment to gut you like a fish.
- CHERIE: He made it all by himself.
- WOMAN: It's very creative.
Looks like he's taking it pretty well.
I haven't told him.
(WHISPERS) I still don't understand why you broke up.
No one does.
That's the whole point.
What's the whole point? It's a kind of dance that defies explanation.
Can't you just call him? No, that's not how it works.
It's a very sophisticated contest of the mind.
If you broke up, didn't you just lose? - You don't get it.
- No, I don't.
Neither do I.
- WILL: It's unbelievable.
- Sorry? I'm sorry, that was probably a private conversation but I overheard bits of it and I don't mean to overstep but what is wrong with these blokes? Well, it's just the one bloke.
Oh, I wish.
Kerry told me about this guy that she met while we were separated, Really? Who was that? KERRY: Will No, no, no, it's not a big deal.
And you have nothing to be ashamed about.
I just think it's ridiculous.
You're both smart, funny, gutsy, gorgeous women.
You shouldn't have to go around putting up with these dickheads.
Even if it was just a brief encounter.
This pasta is incredible.
It's salmonella.
- Semolina.
- Semolina.
God.
(GIGGLES) All I'm saying is, with all due respect, and I'm not suggesting these conversations are easy by any means, but isn't the silence how these guys get away with treating women like this? Will, please.
I mean, Will makes a good point.
Back me up here, Jimmy.
Look, I mean, there are better men.
Am I speaking another language? BILLIE: It's just probably not a good time.
Oh, God.
(HYPERVENTILATES) Sorry.
Kerry, uh, are you all right? RAY: Don't you like it? No, it's great, Ray.
Sorry.
Um What? KERRY: This was not supposed to happen.
You were not meant to find out like this.
- And you knew? - I'm on your side.
Oh, my God, you all knew? - No, I didn't know.
- RAY: Neither did I.
You know, maybe we could How did you keep something like this from me? Did you all just get together and agree I couldn't handle it? No, I was supposed to tell you.
Why do you treat me like I'm a child? It's insulting and it's humiliating and I don't know what I've done to deserve it.
- It's not your fault.
- Oh, I know that! Jeez.
Sorry, Ray.
No worries.
Is there anything else anyone thinks I can't handle? Uh, well (CLEARS THROAT) Your mother's been smuggling misunderstood materials into the country and living in the attic.
What?! And she's pregnant with your child.
(SINGS) Happy birthday to you ALL: Happy birthday to you Happy birthday dear Ray, Happy birthday to you! Happy birthday, mate.
Save us some cake.
I I'll be back.
You gonna make a wish? You let me sit there today and tell you that I love you.
Do you know how many people I've said that to in my entire life? Five, including you.
And my grandparents.
I am so sorry.
I understand if you don't wanna look at me or talk to me.
Here.
I'm gonna put some more ice-cream in that.
Well, he would've found out sooner or later.
May not have been the best time to drop the drug mule Marjorie bomb.
Well, I thought it was telling secrets time.
I can't just sit here anymore.
They've been out there long enough to kill each other with their bare hands.
You coming? (PHONE VIBRATES) Uh, no.
I actually need to take this.
Emma, hi! EMMA: Hello, how's the dinner party? Oh, it's lovely.
Thank you for asking.
Look, I don't want to keep you from your family so I'll get straight to the point.
The panel has deliberated and it's not gonna go your way.
Sorry? Your application was unsuccessful.
It hasn't been announced yet but it was a very difficult decision.
Oh, uh, I'm sure it was.
Standard was very high.
I wanted to let you know as soon as possible as a friend just in case you'd planned for a different outcome.
I'm so sorry, Nina.
No, there's no need to apologise.
I should let you get back to your family.
Enjoy the rest of your evening.
Thanks again for letting me know.
I've been debating whether or not to say this but I'm gonna say it.
I'm very aware I may regret saying it, we may all regret it, but here it is.
Grossly inappropriate behaviour is a Proudman family trait.
What does that mean? At the end of the day, we've all done it.
Most of us have done it.
Seriously? I did not know this is part of having siblings.
Sorry to interrupt.
Ray was just wondering if you still wanted cake.
- JIMMY: Totally.
- Absolutely.
Will.
I'm so sorry.
Do you wanna talk about it? Not yet.
Do you want me to talk? - Do you want me to leave? - Why should you get to leave? I can't leave.
I wanna run away but I'm not going to.
I'm gonna go inside and have some birthday cake with Ray.
I don't know how we can move forward from here.
The two of us I can't feel it yet.
I understand.
And I know it's going to be excruciating but right now, I wanna go inside with you, act like this never happened and be there for Ray.
- Then let's do that.
- Let's do that.
So grown up all of the sudden.
ALL: Aww! That one's from me, mate.
And Kerry.
Didn't know what to get you so got all the stuff that I wanted.
So, if you're not into anything - RAY: I love it all! - (ALL LAUGH) Oh, Neens, um, I contacted Tannhauser Pharmaceuticals to cancel your interview but it turns out they'd already cut you.
- Oh.
- So, you don't have to worry about it interfering with your promotion.
NINA: Double rejection.
- Can I open that one? - Of course you can.
CHERIE: No need to ask.
- You okay? - (RAY OPENS GIFT) - I didn't get it.
- OTHERS: Aww! Please don't react.
I don't wanna hijack any more attention away from Ray.
(GERALDINE LAUGHS) This is awesome! Oh, my God, it is so awesome! Did Auntie Zara let you get this? (LAUGHS) No, no.
We didn't get you that.
No, that one's from Neens and Zoe.
Thanks, Nina! You should probably thank Harry because I think he chose it.
- Thank you! - No worries at all.
I'm sorry you all have grown-up stuff going on, like your business with Kerry.
I don't know why you're sad but I'm sorry you are.
The food didn't taste like it was supposed to.
I know it was gross.
- No, it wasn't! - It kinda was.
- No, it wasn't.
- It's okay, Mum.
I'm big enough to hear it.
Okay, maybe it could have used less salt.
- I think it was quite tasty.
- It was disgusting.
It was the worst thing I've ever eaten.
I think I got a bit of poo in mine.
(ALL LAUGH) BILLIE: Something big just happened.
- NINA: Are you okay? - VOICE-OVER: It's the final weeks of Offspring.
Thank goodness you're here.
- Why?! - VOICE-OVER: And the surprises - Whoa.
- Wow.
- Oh! - VOICE-OVER: just keep coming.
- Uh! - Martin? I had a meeting about a job.
This one involves some time on the ground in Myanmar.
- Wow.
- VOICE-OVER: And the biggest surprise of all will shock everyone.
A very powerful episode of Offspring.
Oh, why, oh, why Oh, why won't you sing?
