National 9 News at 6. Simply the best news for years.
On behalf of the Wide Building Sports team, I'd like to wish you and your family a very happy and bright Christmas.
Please take care, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone.
Thanks for everything Rusty.
Oh, no problem Mr. Colville. I'm glad to be able to help.
Diane, I think that we ought to...
I was...
Well, what have we here?
Just leave it.
Uh-huh.
All right, Diana, what do you think you're up to?
Hi, Pop.
How's your mom doing there?
Well, nothing's changed. She's still in a coma.
Listen, I hated to leave, but I had to get home and check on little Max.
How's he...
Oh, poor little fella. He don't know what to make out any of this.
Well, Pop, I would have stayed longer, but I have to work today and I couldn't get anybody to cover me at the emergency center.
Come on, you wish you were all laid out?
No, no, this is my turn.
No, Pop, now come on. You need to rest. Enrollment is there right now.
Come on, I don't need to rest. I rest more in the hospital, I tell you.
Is there a fresh shipment there?
Yeah, oh yeah, it came in this morning.
Shouldn't it be put away or something?
Oh, I love to rob. The only thing I can think about is getting over to see Caroline.
Pop, I know that you're worried about Mom, but you can't let this whole store go because of her. She would hate that.
Oh, come on, I'd hate for the store. If it weren't for the store, she wouldn't be where she is now.
No, you don't know that.
I know that she told me to take it easy. I don't know, I didn't listen to her. I just kept pushing, pushing, pushing. Now look at this.
Pop, it is not your fault. Look, if it's anybody's fault, it's mine. I mean, I know how upset she was that I was in jail. I could have done something and not do...
Now, wait a minute, wait a minute. Both of you, stop blaming yourselves here. It's nobody's fault.
Now, come on. Two of you, get on out of here and do what you gotta do.
What are you doing?
Come on.
What are you doing?
The two of you out of here now.
Hello, Robin.
I don't want to mix it up with you, Victor. Not here. I just want you to leave.

I just came to see how Carolyn was doing.
I know how you feel about my mother.
And I know a lot's gone on between you two in the past.
It was a long time ago.
This is family business Victor, and I don't think you belong here.
I know that and I made sure there was no family around.
I saw you go out a few minutes ago.
You didn't tell me you were hanging around here waiting for Ma to be alone?
I came as soon as I heard what happened.
You're lucky as hell it wasn't Papa walking in here right now.
I made sure that Sean wasn't anywhere around.
Look, Roman, I'm not looking to make matters worse for your mother.
I just want her to get better.
You better leave then.
Any member of my family can walk in here right now.
Last thing we need to see.
Just give me a few more minutes.
Any particular reason I should agree to that?
Roman, whatever you think of me, I still care for your mother.
She's the most honest, decent person that I know.
When it kills me to see her here like this, it's not right that this should happen to her.
No, it's not right.
Ma never did anything to anybody. I don't know why this had to happen.
Look, I think you better go.
Maybe you're right.
Carolyn?
Ma? Hey, Ma?
Ma?
I don't have time to exchange clever little barbs with you today, Jack.
I have to get to the hospital.
What was Rusty doing here?
I don't owe you any explanations.
You do if it's about me, and that is what it was about, wasn't it?
You're starting to get paranoid, Jack.
Paranoid? Paranoid can be a very healthy thing when there are known people walking around spreading lies about you.
Lies? Well, if they're lies, then why are you so worried?
Worried? No, I'm not worried. In fact, you should be worried because you know what a bad idea it is to sneak around my back.
Diane, I am checking every single word that goes in and out of this place.
You're not going to get away with a thing.
We'll see.
Excuse me, I have more important matters to attend to.
Diane! Good-bye, Jack!
Diane, I'm not...
Well, it would help to know what I was looking for, wouldn't it?
Yeah.
There you go. Come on.
What about this delivery?
Don't worry about the fish, all right?
Well, look, you're listening to your husband, you know? And he knows what he's talking about, huh?
No, well, listen, maybe you two don't think this is important, but I do.
Look, Pop, you know, you are going to have medical expenses because of this.
Well, Mom, we got insurance. Take care of all of that.
No, well, insurance may not cover everything. What if Mom needs a private-duty nurse at home?
Don't worry about it. We'll worry about that later. Right now, all I want to do is go over and see your Mom.
Well, fine. You go see her, and I am going to stay right here.
Come on, I thought you said you had to go to work at the emergency center.
Well, they're just going to have to find somebody else because I am not going to let the business that you and Mom
struggled so many years for slip away.
Oh, you're going to have to get on up now, baby, and you're going to have to put your coat back on.
And I want you to get on out the door and don't worry about a thing, all right?
What do you mean, don't worry?
I'm going to take care of it. I'm going to take care of it.
You?
Is there something wrong with that?
Mom, can you hear me, Mom?
Well, then?
Yeah, it's me.
Where am I?
You're in the hospital, Mom.
The hospital?
Yeah.
What happened?
You kind of had a little problem with your heart, but you're going to be okay. You're going to be all right now.
How long have I been here?
Over a few days. It happened when you were with Diana, you know, looking for the wedding dress.
Oh, yes.
I remember.
No, no, no, no. No, no, you just sit here and you relax, okay?
Don't you move a muscle. I'm going to get a doctor.
Victor.
I think you better go now.
I can't go now.
Look, I don't have time to argue with you. Please, will you just go now, please?
No. Let him stay.
Well, look, I don't want you getting all worked up. You need to relax. Please, please.
Roman, I'll be fine.
I'll be back.
I've been so worried about you.
You shouldn't have come.
I couldn't stay away.
Why?
You know why.
Because I love you.
I've always loved you.
And I never stopped.
Yes.
I do know why.
I'm glad you know.
When I first heard what happened to you, I was sick with worry.
I couldn't bear the idea of losing you forever.
You don't need to worry about me now.
Yes, I do.
I don't want to see you go through any more pain.
Victor.
There's nothing you can do.
I could be here for you.
No.
You have to go.
I can't. I don't want to leave you.
You have to.
I can't. I love you too much.
If you love me as much as you say you do,
then you will go.
And you'll stay away.
Please, Victor, you do this for me.
I'm sorry, Carol.
I can't do that.
So what's the matter with me minding the store, huh?
Nothing. It's just that you've never done this kind of thing before.
Wait a minute. Yes, I have. What about the other day?
I sold all those fish, every last one off of that dock. Remember that?
Yeah, but that was just a couple of hours.
We are talking about a full day here.
Wait a minute. Wait a minute.
To let him hear it sounds to me like he's got a solution.
Pop, you know how hard it is to run this market.
But you said yourself that we shouldn't be close enough.
I mean, now Steve here, he's got a pretty good idea.
What's the matter?
Don't you think I can do it or what?
No, it's not that. It's just that, you know,
it's hard for one person to handle this market,
even if he knows what he's doing.
Look, I'll tell you what I'm doing here.
I'm gonna try to chip in a little bit for the family.
That's all. The Brady's have done a lot for me,
and I think it's about time I start giving something back.
I'll tell you something we appreciate.
It's no big deal, man.
I mean, look, all I got is extra time on my hands now anyway.
All right.
You better be getting over to the hospital, huh?
All right. You call me if there's a change.
I'll let you know.
It's a big deal, and you know it.
So give me a medal.
I'm not gonna be better than that.
I was hoping so.
You know what?
I'm not really sure about this.
I'm sure about this, baby.
You know, you shouldn't worry so much.
Oh, I do.
I saw close to yuppies, didn't I, Danne Saxons?
If I can do that, I can move a few fish.
Well, you know where to reach me, right?
Yeah, I know where to reach you.
Come on, you're gonna be late.
Well, let this lipstick off.
Get out of here. You're gonna be late.
All right, oh, be careful.
You know those fish are very slippery.
Yeah, yeah.
If you drop them on the floor, please wash them off.
All right, I'll wash my hands.
Goodbye.
Yeah, fish bucket.
No problem.
No, what?
You're a smart man, Rusty.
Remember to jump when I call.
What do you want now, Jack?
Tell me.
What did you talk to Diana about?
It's none of your business.
You damn well better believe it's my business
when you sneak around behind my back talking about me.
Yeah?
Well, maybe if you kept your nose clean,
there wouldn't be so much to tell.
Well, I guess you were talking about me, weren't you?
I didn't say that.
You didn't have to. I can tell.
You and Diana have been going behind my back
trying to bring me down.
Oh, yeah?
You know, you're beginning to sound like maybe
you got a screw loose or something.
You got this idea that you're going to walk away
from this thing scot-free.
I warned you,
because you didn't hear the message.
What are you talking about?
This.
What about?
You know what these are.
Apparently, that hot little number on the campaign trail
wasn't the only woman that you were sleeping around with.
No, Rusty, you're quite the ladies' man.
Give me those.
Go ahead, Rusty, tear them up.
I got negatives. I can flood the whole town
with pictures if I want.
I wonder what your wife and friends are going to think of you now.
What do you want from me?
Nothing. You had your chance.
You blew it.
There's nothing you can do now.
Jack, Jack, Jack, I'll do anything.
But you can't tell my wife.
Rusty, I'm sorry.
I got no other choice.
You don't understand. She'll not only leave me,
she'll take me for every last red cent.
She'll take me to the whole violin.
Jack, I'm serious. This will ruin me.
Rusty, you should have thought of that before you went to Diana.
Jack, you can't do this.
Rusty, I can do it.
And I'm going to do it.
And there's nothing you can do to stop me.
Oh, I wouldn't be so sure about that.
You can't do this.
It looks pretty ready to me.
Then at nine.
All I have to do is roll around on the floor for three minutes with one of those.

Well, I'm not Norm De Plume but it'll have to do.
Marcus, could I ask you a few questions?
Sure, go ahead.
Is Valentine's Day more like Friday the 13th for you?
Well, I...
Do you wake up in the morning and do you find yourself singing the country western song, if I don't get a date I'm gonna spit bullets?
That was Ethan's favorite song.
Do you wake up in the middle of the night and find yourself curled up with an inanimate object?
Actually, 86 that question, I don't want the answer to it.
And Delilah, what's this all about?
I've been asked to write the new lonely hearts column for the spectator.
Really?
Yeah.
You have?
Uh-huh.
What's so funny?
You don't think that I'd be good at advising people about their love lives?
Didn't I hear something about you planning a wedding for some dogs once?
Yes, and they are still together which is more than I can say for most of the couples in this town.
Alright.
Do I know what I'm doing?
Alright, okay, okay, you know what you're doing I guess.
What are you asking me for then?
Well, I'm asking because I'm doing a survey and I need to know about the problems that you have with your love life.
Well, I can't help you there because I don't have one.
Busy Saturday night?
What?
Never mind.
Alright, if you don't have any problems just make one up, okay?
I can't do that.
Why not?
Because you're not supposed to make the stuff up that goes in those columns, that's why.
Don't be naive.
You really think that all those things you read in those columns aren't made up?
Well, yes.
Well, I mean no.
I'm sorry, I don't understand the question.
Just forget the question.
We're going to start a column right here and you're going to have to do it.
Okay.
This is from you.
Dear lonely hearts, I am a successful, rich, incredibly handsome plastic surgeon.
Well, I thought you were supposed to be making this up, Calliope.
You're right, I should leave off the plastic surgeon part but as long as we're on the subject.
Do you think that if I did a little nip-tuck action here?
No, no, no, you're fine.
You won't hurt my feelings, just tell me the truth.
You are gorgeous, you're gorgeous.
Okay.
All right?
Sure.
Okay.
All right, let's go back.
I am a rich, successful guy and I'm looking for a date.
What should I do?
No, no, no, no.
What?
If I was going to ask you for some advice, it wouldn't be on how to get a date.
I mean, that's no problem.
What I would ask you is how to find the right woman, the one that you want to settle down with.
That's a really good, real, genuine problem.
I'll use that.
Thank you.
Okay, but I just want to know, when did you realize you were having trouble with women?
I mean, how young?
No, no, don't have to.
You've got to come quick.
Jacques and Henri are trying to kill each other.
Who is Jacques and Henri?
Don't worry about it.

It looks more serious this time.
Just don't throw the cutlery.
I think I'm just going to be moseying about.
No, no, you can't go yet.
I just need to ask you another question or two.
You want some smoke?
Smoke.
I'm out.
Oh, my God.
I'm out.
No, it shouldn't.
It's smoke.
Oh, my goodness.
Fire!
Fire.
Everybody out!
Fire, everybody out.
Everybody out!
Quickly!
Jacques, what are you doing?
Kayla, I need your help.
I'm sorry.
Whatever you mixed up in, I don't want to be a part of it, all right?
Kayla, please.
I'm hurt.
Put your hand up on your shoulder.
Put your hands in.
Oh.
Get this coat off.
Okay.
Am I going to be all right?
Sure you will be, Jacques.
Kayla, can you help me?
I'm going to go to the nurse to help.
No, no.
Kayla, please.
I need you.
I need you to help me.
Please.
I'm sorry.
Shawn, get up early.
I'm sorry.
I'll have to go.
I don't want to get начed anymore or anyone will know.

Oh my God.
She came out of her coma.
Oh, you son of a bitch!
Why didn't you tell me about that?
I ain't gonna go and see her.
No, no, no, not yet, Lop.
Why not?
Well, because the doctor's gotta check her out first.
Well, that's all right.
I just wanted to let her know I'm here.
No, I'm here to rest.
Let's get a cup of coffee, and you can see her
right after that, OK?
I ain't going anywhere until I see your mom.
Lop, come on.
You don't want to go in there just chatting.
What is going on?
Nothing's going on.
Hey, Lop.
How's your mom?
Lop, what do you say?
What do you say you and I get some coffee
and tell Diana the good news, huh?
I ain't going anywhere until I see your mom.
Come on, Lop.
Just come with us.
What do you say?
Come on.
Will you tell me what you're...
What is it you're holding back from me?

Of course.

So how would you describe Raffaello?
Surprising.
Raffaello, full of surprises.
UV TripleGuard with three-way action remains effective against UV radiation even after two
hours in the water.
I was terrified of my own kids.
I know it sounds really dumb and I don't know how it all happened, but I guess they had more
control than me, I suppose.
I remember every time they come near me, I just couldn't handle the feeling inside that
they make me have.
And I don't know, it was just so built up and every time I looked at them or every time
I saw them, I just wanted them to go away.
It was really horrible.
To actually go and ask someone for help would have been the hardest thing I've ever had
to do.
That was really hard.
There's people there if you know where to go.
I shouldn't have known.
Hello, Sean.
Come on, Bob, what do you say we get out of here, huh?
I'm not going anywhere until I have a few words with this man.
Forget about it, will you?
Forget about it.
I find this man in your mother's room and you tell me to forget about it.
It's not going to be any good to mix it up here.
It's just going to upset Ma.
Oh, think it hasn't upset her enough already, huh?
How could you even let him go into that room, huh?
I thought I meant you protecting him from me.
It wasn't protecting me.
He told me to leave.
I refused.
I should have you thrown out of this place.
Bob.
This is between Victor and me.
You want me to handle this, sir?
No, the man is right.
It's between us.
Come on, Roman, let's go.
We got to hold up an evening coffee.
How dare you?
Caroline hasn't suffered enough.
You've got to come here and make it worse for her.
It wasn't my intention.
Oh, no, no, it never is.
Never is your intention.
But that's all you do when all you've ever done is hurt her.
Oh, I couldn't hurt her.
You what?
You what, huh?
You love her?
Oh, come on now, don't deny it.
Oh, I've seen the way you look at her.
I've watched you hang around year after year,
just waiting for your big chance.
Take a hint, Victor.
Caroline doesn't want you around.
She hasn't for a long time.
She don't need you.
All right, I'll keep my distance.
But for Caroline,
I don't want to make things any harder for her
than they already are.
Good, good, good.
And we understand one another, eh?
But I'm still going to make sure that she gets the best possible care.
You leave that to me.
We don't want karaoke's help.
Maybe not.
But you may need it.
And if you do, I'm going to see to it that you get it.
I'm not going to have Caroline suffer
because of something between you and me.
Oh, it's a very long night.
Steve!
Hey, Maxwell.
How was school?
It was okay.
Yeah?
Where's Pa?
Well, he's over at the hospital with your mama.
Is mama going to be all right?
We're hoping so.
How about you?
Are you doing all right?
I guess so.
You guess so?
I'm worried about Pa.
Worried, huh?
He's scared about mama.
Mm-hmm.
What about mama?
He's scared that mama might die.
What about you?
You a little bit scared, too?
Things were just starting to get good.
And now everything's going bad again.
First Frankie left, and mama's in the hospital.
And Pa isn't even here.
Well, you see, Pa is in the hospital with mom.
You know, taking care of her, watching over her
until she can come home.
Do you think she will?
We have to keep good thoughts, you know?
And maybe that'll do it.
Maybe it'll come true.
But if Pa's going to be at the hospital taking care of mama,
who's going to run the market?
I guess it's me, dude.
You?
Yeah.
Do you know how?
The fish are awfully slippery.
I noticed.
Hey, how's abouts?
You give me a few pointers, huh?
OK.
Yeah?
I'm glad you're going to be here.
I need two backs of well.
Kayla, please, I want you to help me.
I need you to help me.
All right, Jack, Dan, take your shirt off and I'll see what I can do.
I won't forget this, Kayla.
Look, you're just a patient.
You're sick.
I'm a nurse.
That's just all there is to it, all right?
Nothing more.
Whatever your reasons are, I appreciate it.
So what happened?
I was on the waterfront and somebody came up and stabbed me.
I guess they were trying to rob me.
Well, since we're done here, we can call the police.
No, no, don't.
That won't be necessary.
Why don't you want whoever did this to be caught?
I, uh, well, I, uh, I don't want the publicity.
Since when didn't Jack Devereux want publicity?
What's going on here, Jack?
I told you, Kayla, I was on the waterfront and somebody stabbed me.
But it wasn't a stranger, was it?
That's why you didn't want to call the police, because you knew who it was.
And knowing you, you probably deserved it.
In the year of celebrations and ad-back reunions,
the ultimate nostalgic journey...

When we asked you what you wanted from a washing powder,
you didn't tell us.
You demanded a washing powder that shifts even this sort of dirt.
A smaller pack that you don't need a crowbar to open.
And better for the environment to boot.
You demanded it, Omo Micro Delivers.
Easy to open.
Piece of cake.
And because it's concentrated, just one scoop gives sensationally
whiter whites and dazzlingly brighter colours.
And because you're using less, it's another small step forward
for a better environment.
You demanded it, Omo Micro Delivers.
New Omo Micro.
Concentrated powder for a concentrated clean.
And so in the end, it's not just good value, it's great.
You said you'd only buy me TDK HS videotapes.
All videotapes are the same.
No, they're not.
OK, I'll buy you TDK HS videotapes.
You've finally got the message, Harold.
They're amazing.
TDK quality lasts forever, not like the others.
All right, only TDK.
So that's settled.

243 men, women and children died.

Come on, nice to meet you.
Wait a minute, there's something that should be done here.
Somebody should call the fire department.
They've already been called, so come on, let's go.
Are you sure?
I'm positive.
No, I can't go.
Why not?
Because if a captain goes down with his ship,
it stands to reason that the host should burn with the rest of us.
Let them handle it.
The fire department, thank you.
Why don't you step outside?
Alright, it's right there.
Come on, you guys, come on.
He looks like he's put out a few fires in his life.
We should let him do that right now.
I really want to see him a little more.
Wait a second.
Well.
You did it already?
Not to worry, it's a small grease fire.
It's just nothing to it.
You saved my life.
Well, I wouldn't say that.
It was a frying pan.
It makes a lot of smoke, that's all there is.
I just don't know how to repay you.
Well, you don't got to repay me.
Where there's smoke, there's fire.
That's just a little fireman lingo.
Well, it should clear up any second.
Is everything alright?
Yeah, it looks okay.
We checked it out pretty good.
That shouldn't mean no more problem.
Well, you're fine.
We ought to get back.
Oh, absolutely not.
I mean, you're heroes.
We have to give you a heroes thanks.
I absolutely insist.
Sit down here right now and you get lunch on the house.
My goodness, I mean, this is Salem's best restaurant.
Alright, Bob, I told you, new things happen all the time.
Go out and call dispatch.
Tell them where we are and tell Charlie to just secure the Reg and hang tight.
Thanks, guys.
Thank you.
Could I just ask you a question?
Have you ever fallen in love with someone, a woman,
perhaps that you were giving mouth-to-mouth resuscitation to?
She always like this.
Oh, hey, wait, it gets even better.
Just that I'm needing a little air.
There, that'll do it.
Are you sure?
Well, you could have a doctor check it if you like.
No, no, no, no, I believe you.
Kate, I really appreciate all your help.
I'm just doing my job.
Can you accept a simple thank you?
I'm just trying to be nice.
If you think that you being nice is going to make me forget everything that you did, you're wrong.
I didn't say anything about forget.
I am so sick of this.
You're sick of it.
Jack, you tried to ruin my life and you act as if nothing ever even happened.
I don't understand you.
Kelly, you never even tried.
Emergency center.
Hey, I'm glad I got you. I just got some news on Ma.
What? What's going on?
She's just regained consciousness.
Oh, that's great. How's she doing?
Well, I don't know yet. The doctor's in there with her right now, but she's talking and everything,
and she remembers what happened. That's good news, isn't it?
Well, that's great news.
Well, you tell her I'll see her as soon as I can, all right?
Yeah, she'll like to hear that. Listen, I gotta go. I want to call Kimmy.
Okay. Thanks for calling. Bye.
So, is your mom going to be okay?
Yeah, she gained consciousness and she's...
Kayla, it's okay. You can tell me about it.
Why would you care, Jack?
I care a lot.
Your mother treated me like a son when we were married.
Like a part of the family. And that's not something that I forget easily.
What about your own family, Jack? You don't even admit that they exist.
We weren't talking about the Johnsons.
Well, I'm talking about the Johnsons.
They are your family, Jack, whether you want to admit it or not.
Whenever they reach out to you, you turn your back on them.
You act like you are just too good for them.
Well, I have news for you. It's the other way around.
You don't deserve them.
Hey!
I've had all that I can take from you.
Oh, Sean.
Yes, we are, eh?
I'm glad you're here.
I'm glad you're feeling better. You give us a bit scary, you know that?
I don't want you worrying about me.
Oh, I know why I'm going to be doing that now, eh?
You're going to be all better. You see that? You're going to make it just fine.
Yeah, I hope so.
You are. Oh, you are.
And listen, when you get up on your feet again,
we're going to take some time, just the two of us.
We'll do all those things that we said we were going to do.
You know, we're going to travel. Maybe we'll take a cruise, eh?
Or we'll get a motorhome, where we'll see the whole country.
I'd like that.
I'm just glad we're getting a second chance.
We ain't going to wait until it's too late.
What was that I heard outside?
What do you mean?
Well, I thought I heard voices.
Oh, that was Roman, Diana.
They were just talking.
When they found out you woke up, it was...
Oh, my God.
I was so scared.
You know, when they found out you woke up, it was...
Oh, I'm glad that's all.
I can't believe that Victor had the audacity to show up here.
I'm just glad the top kept his cool.
Couldn't have been very easy, though.
I'm sure he wanted to go through the roof when he saw Victor.
Can you blame him? I mean, I know how I'd feel
if I didn't see Victor.
How would you feel?
I wouldn't be able to stand it for a minute.
Well, I've got to go.
I've got a meeting with Vern. I'll see you later.
What does that mean?
Tonight on Nine.
Carrick Records presents Tommy Emmanuel
and his new album, Determination.
13 tracks of guitar brilliance as only Tommy can play.
If you think you've heard it all before,
Determination will make you think again at all Carrick stores now.
I made them myself.
Mmm.
Well, they love Jatz.
I made them myself.
Jatz, the great entertainer now in Craig Pepper.
Summer 92.
Our Murray. Beautiful, tranquil, peaceful.
Used by Australians for a variety of purposes as they developed a nation.
It has changed over the last 200 years.
More than ever, we need to care for it.
Otherwise, future Australians will never know what it was once like.
Our Murray. Our River.
Treat the river like a friend.
Show your concern.
If you see a problem, phone Riverwatch.
This one myself.
Okay, here you go.
Oh, hey.
And something for the Dalmatian.
Oh, give it to Stanley. How about that guy?
It's, uh, you don't have to go to all this trouble. It's very nice.
Well, nothing is too good for Salem's finest fearless firefighters.
I mean, after all, you saved the entire patronage of Blondies
from having to eat shenanigans, burgers, and your courage and daring due
will never be forgotten, and I would like to congratulate each and every one of you
and especially you, and take this time to salute you.
I don't know how much more in a second take.
Now, you put your life on the line every day. You deserve a little praise.
Well, this person has no such thing as a little.
Well, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to call my friend
who happens to be very, very important over at the Spectator
and make sure that your heroics make it to the front page. Thank you.
See ya.
Oh, hi.
She's going to call the mayor next, Brian.
Come on, now. We might as well get used to it. It comes with the territory.
Well, well, it's not what we do it for, but, you know, you don't do it for that, do you?
You like the excitement.
Come on. You kidding?
As old macho smoke eaters, they burned up or retired a long time ago.
It's a different job now, you know. We're trained to be careful.
Yeah, well, I've seen you in action, and you're hell on a bike, too.
There was you I saw on the bike path last weekend.
Yeah, you're not so bad yourself.
Nah, come on. God dragged me out there.
But you, Mr. Serious Cyclist on the mountain bike, you look good.
Well, I'm not trying to impress you, let me tell you.
Well, I can imagine. There's some nice-looking ladies out there.
Well, so you noticed, did you?
Yes, I did.
Yeah, well, if you ever want to try out some new paths, you just let me know.
Well, I'll take you up on that. Give you a run for your money.
Really? You talking about the bike or the women?
Oh, well, how about that?
All right, you're on.
Hey, Doc, we gotta get back before they think we're on strike or something.
Mm-hmm, yeah.
Let go of me, Joe.
No, honey, do you hear me out?
You act like I set out to destroy your whole life, like I plotted this whole thing,
and you know, we both know that it's not true.
When I came to Salem, I had a plan.
Yes, a plan to find you and marry you, because I loved you, Carol.
Jack, I don't need to hear...
I want you to hear this, you've got to hear it.
You talk about me ruining your life.
What do you think you did to mine?
Before all this happened, I was a pretty good guy, remember that?
I was the kind of guy that everybody looked up to, that everybody loved.
Everybody but you.
You couldn't love me.
If you could, it would have been a whole lot better for both of us.
Not for me.
You didn't know what you were doing to me.
You didn't know how much it would hurt.
Jack, people get rejected every day, but they don't do what you did.
Not to somebody that they love.
Don't bring up the past.
I didn't bring this up. Look, I don't want to have this conversation with you.
I never set out to do the things that I did.
I was losing you to...
I was losing you to my...
I was losing you to my worst enemy.
To my brother.
I knew that all that just came down on top.
A trap.
It's no excuse.
I know.
I know that now.
But it's not going to change what happened.
Maybe I can change...
Change what's inside.
I want him to kill.
I just don't know if I...
I don't know how.
Well, I'm sure if you really want to, you'll find a way. You always do.
I don't know if I can.
That's your problem, Jack.
Well, thank you for...
Thank you for taking care of me.
Thank you.
I want to make a difference, Kate.
I do.
I thought you were going to meet with Vern.
What are you doing here?
Well, you blasted out of hospital so fast.
I started thinking maybe it was something I said.
Don't be ridiculous.
Okay, then...
Why aren't you meeting with Vern? I thought you had an important meeting with him.
I do. In fact, I have to be going now.
No, no, no.
Come on, talk to me. What's wrong?
Maybe there's something wrong.
I don't know. Maybe because I know you and I know when something's bothering you.
Look, Diana, the last thing I said was I just couldn't stand it if there was another man in your life.
Do you think there is someone else?
No.
Well, then why did you say it?
I was just trying to let you know how much I love you.
I'm sorry. I didn't know it was going to cause a federal case or something.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Romanette.
I guess I...I have a lot on my mind with everything that's happened lately.
I think it's understandable.
I imagine you're especially disappointed because we had to postpone the wedding and everything, you know?
No, I don't want you to worry about me now.
Really, you have enough on your mind with your mother being so sick.
You are one special lady.
Hmm.
And as soon as mom is better, maybe there is nothing that's going to keep me from marrying you.
Hmm.
Do you really mean that?
I mean, do you really think it's going to happen for us?
Of course I do.
What is it with this little insecurity trip here all of a sudden?
I don't know.
I guess it just seems like it's always something that keeps us apart.
It's always something that keeps us apart.
Nothing's going to keep me away from you.
Nothing?
Nothing.
You know, if I knew this little remark was going to do a number on you like that,
I never would have said it. I'm sorry.
Oh, it's okay.
I just overreacted. That's all.
Well, I'm glad to hear that. You know, for a second there,
I just got a little bit of a dashed away somewhere.
Hmm.
Ah.
Hmm.
Hello, Mrs. Johnson.
I work in the fish market.
Your papa relieved me.
He told me the good news about your mom.
Yeah, it's great, isn't it?
I told you she was going to get better, didn't I?
You certainly did.
So what's the matter?
I was just thinking about something. I'm sorry.
I can see that you're thinking about something. What is it?
Jack was just in here.
Was he giving you trouble again?
No, no, he's in trouble himself.
Well, so what? Is that our business?
He was stabbed.
What?
Yeah.
Is he all right?
Yeah, I think it was, well, it was pretty superficial.
He was bleeding, but I think he's all right.
Are you sure? Yeah, I wouldn't let him go if he wasn't.
Yeah, well, that's good.
That's good.
You know, you don't have to hide it from me.
It's all right.
You care about your brother.
I'm sure he'll be all right.
Right now it's time for the young and the restless for your enjoyment
and a reminder to stay with mine tonight for Who's the Boss at 8.30,
followed by Married with Children.
Thank you.
On National 9 News tonight,
London paralysed by the IRA's Christmas Terror campaign

National 9 News at 6,
simply the best news for years.
The Cary Grecoids presents Australia's greatest guitarist, Tommy Emmanuel,

Good digestion to you all.
Once more, a shower of welcome on you.
To an actor, makeup is the ultimate theatrical tool.
A mask can help create personality for comedy or tragedy.
Still, it is only make believe.
Unlike the real pain and tragedy that afflicts children and adults
with facial deformities and abnormalities of the skull,
caused at birth or by road traumas and even war.
Today, the work of the Australian Craniofacial Unit
gives new hope to many patients throughout Australasia.
Each year, the Craniofacial Unit receives worldwide acclaim,
and each year the number of patients increases.
In many cases, the results have been miraculous.
In all cases, the work is expensive.
And that's where your support is needed.
Financial support to remove the mask of tragedy for so many people.

Here's Cheers with Fraser Crane.
Alright everyone, pay attention.
I have a little announcement to make and I only have a minute.
You're in a hurry.
No, I was referring to your relatively short attention span.
When he's at the bar, there's always a doctor in the house.
What's a gyna-comastia?
A male breast enlargement.

Tracy, I know it's none of my business and I'm certainly no expert,
but I honestly feel you're making a mistake if you stand in the way of your husband's career.
Ultimately, it's bound to cause problems.
At least that's the way I'd feel if you were my husband.
Well, maybe, but he is not your husband.
Of course not. I'm being too presumptuous.
No, I didn't mean it like that.
No, really Tracy, I'm sorry. I apologize.
Look, please don't take it like that.
I really am interested in what you have to say.
It's just that there are a lot of things here for me to think about.
There are a lot of things I need to consider.
Well, I'm sure that's true.
Look, Lisa, when Brad told me about his job opportunity this morning,
he was so excited and so enthusiastic, I guess I just got swept away with his mood.
Well, it is very exciting, Tracy.
Well, yeah, but when you look at things a little bit more realistically, it's not quite that simple.
This is a big step. This is an extremely important decision.
Of course it is.
I guess maybe there is some degree of sentimentality attached.
I would love it if my husband would stay involved in a company that my own father started and built.
But is that really fair to Brad?
Well, it may not be the perfect position for him right now with my brother involved.
He's not going to be CEO anytime soon, but it's a really good o...
You obviously don't agree.
Well, I'm a hopeless romantic.
I'm just trying to weigh the things you've told me against what this job offer could mean to Brad's future career.
My God, Tracy, it's such a wonderful opportunity.
If my husband came to me and said that he was excited about going out and doing it on his own,
I just couldn't stand in his way.
So for me, it would be an easy decision.
You're saying that you would go ahead and support him in following through with something like this?
Well, I'm old-fashioned.
I would put my husband's desires first.
