(soft orchestra music) - [Narrator] Previously on McLeod's Daughters.

- Nick, look who I found.

- Hi, stranger.

- Hi Nick, how's the riding going?

- Yeah.

- Knew you could do it.

- Pleased to meet you, Sally.

- Likewise, I've heard a lot about you Tess.

- I'm sure you have.

Tess is always up to something.

- What time's Rick getting in?

- The lunch time bus.

- Mmm!

(gentle music) (bus engine raving) - You did give them my letter?

Peter, you have to tell them the truth.

I could lose everything.

- Well, I already have.

(gentle music) - Are you sure you gave him the letter?

I mean maybe you just thought you did.

- I gave him that letter, Tess.

He came for the horses and I handed it to him.

- So if Peter kept the letter then maybe he's still got it.

(box clicking) Hello, housekeeping.

Like I said, we'll work it out.

- Can you work this out?

I'm pregnant.

(sentimental music) (toilet flushing) - Feel better?

- A little.

(sentimental music) - What?

- Auntie Tess.

- Yeah.

Does this mean you're gonna?

- Yeah, I think so.

Oh, I don't know.

Why did I let this happen?

It's stupid, so stupid.

- Well, you'll be all right.

Whatever you decide, you're not in this alone.

You've got me.

- But how can I decide, it's too hard.

I can't do this.

What happened to my life?

Suddenly I'm pregnant and homeless.

- Well not necessarily.

I mean, Peter's the dad here.

It's his baby.

- No way.

He's having nothing to do with it.

He is trying to ruin Drovers Run.

There is no way he's gonna have anything to do with this kid.

- If you tell Peter about this baby, he might do the right thing.

He wouldn't want his own flesh and blood out in the cold.

His own genes are involved here.

It's biology.

(sentimental music) - Oh!

(sentimental music) - [Announcer] Welcome to the farm's cross country event.

Lovely to have break it all there for.

(crowd cheering) Peter Johnson leads on points from the McLeod run in 10, with Daylight between them and the rest of the field.

(crowd distant chatter) - It all stands up pretty good?

- Is that a joke at Queen?

Look, I wanna know if it was ever true, what you said you felt between us.

(sentimental music) - How can you even ask?

- Because I don't understand how you can do any of this.

I could lose my property because of you.

- Well there's a way out of this Claire, it's easy.

You see I can fix everything with Australian Blood Lines, all the problems, gone.

- How?

- Marry me.

Simple.

(light hearted guitar music) ♪ It'll take some time to find your heart ♪ ♪ And come back home ♪ ♪ You could walk for miles cross every river ♪ ♪ And find you're not alone ♪ ♪ 'Cause I'll be there ♪ ♪ Oh oh oh oh ♪ ♪ Oh oh oh oh ♪ ♪ You're not alone.

♪ ♪ Oh oh oh oh ♪ ♪ Oh oh oh oh ♪ ♪ 'Cause I'll be there ♪ ♪ Ooooooohhh ♪ - [Tess] You didn't say yes?

- Of course not.

I said I'd think about it.

- Claire, the man is a psycho, he lied to everyone about that letter.

- He was hurt, I was hurt, we were both hurt.

Look, maybe if this stupid war was over, maybe we could love each other again.

- I'm sorry, but that's blackmail.

Marry me or you lose Drovers, very romantic.

- And dangling his homeless, unborn child in front of him wasn't blackmail?

- Oh I get it, you told him about the pregnancy, and now he wants to do the right thing.

- I haven't told him.

(groans) He wants me, Tess.

He still wants me.

Maybe it could work, the baby would get a father and-- - Your brain has been scrambled by hormones.

- It'd get a family.

- This baby already has a family, you, me, Meg, Becky, Jodi.

Don't even think about this, don't.

- I have to.

- Hey Claire, you gonna check out this course today?

Or just concede to Peter Johnson up front?

Come on, let's get a ring off.

- Jodi, did Becky tell you what she was doing today?

- Well Brick was getting in yesterday, what do you think she's doing?

- You don't know where she is.

- They'll come up for air eventually.

When they do, I think I might have an announcement to make.

- It's Medusa versus Madonna!

Any of us moron miss out on Wade!

- Girl fight!

Nobody's worried about breaking a finger tonight!

Turn it around (mumbles) and into the ring!

Might hit a little girl, she's in a bit of strife.

(crowd cheering) I can see the fights hold back 'em tight (mumbles) She's moving real low.

Oh, that's all - Becky!

keep your punches up!

Keep the punches up.

- Come on, come on.

Come on, come on everybody, give Becky some encouragement!

- That's enough, she's just a beginner!

(crowd groaning) - Down, she's gone!

The challenger's down with the crowd!

(crowd applauding) - Becky, you're not ready for this.

- Stop, let me finish.

He didn't get off the bus.

(crying) (somber orchestra music) (water sprinkling) - Just hypothetically, what if Kevin had turned up after only a year instead of 18 years.

- (sighs) Different life.

I'd be a different person.

- So you'd have taken him in?

- Back then?

In a flash.

- What if it left not knowing you were pregnant,ú and he'd been messing around with other women?

- Well that'd be hard, but Nick's the one that makes your pulse race.

What's pregnancy got to do with it?

- Nothing, it's just hypothetical.

- Is this about you and Nick?

- No, it's not about me.

It's not about anyone.

(soft orchestra music) - I remembered from last time, extra onions, extra sauce, enjoy!

- Morning, how's business?

- Sausages are walking out the doorway.

- Out the door.

- I was just remembering how we always used to have an ice cream when we came to the show.

- I'd love to Mum, but I'm really flat out.

Just sauce and onions right?

- If there's anything you need to talk about, I'm all ears.

Are you sure there isn't something else you need to tell me?

- I guess I should tell you now.

I have found some really amazing deals in hostels and flights to Europe.

So a couple more sausage sizzles, and we'll be able to afford our tickets.

- Nothing else?

Is this Alberto's idea?

- We talk about everything mum, we both own the idea, okay?

- It's such a drastic thing to do at a time like this.

- Well Italy's a bit far to swim, mum, so yeah a plane seemed like a good idea.

Just sauce?

- Yes, thanks.

- Alberto, have you got a minute?

- Very soon Meg, no worries.

- How about we try for that drink later on?

- Oh, yeah of course, later on.

- If this business with Tess is too.

- What business?

- Oh nothing, we talked.

There's a few things I need to say.

Good things.

- Hey there.

- Hi Meg.

- Didn't see you to man a chutney in the competition this year.

- Life's outta control at the moment.

- Tell me about it.

- It's bad enough being a single mother, being a single grandmother is just nauseating.

- Screw those Catholic blokes don't muck around, do they?

- Don't say anything, she hasn't told me yet.

- Sure, no problem.

(sighs) (chuckles) - What are you grinning at?

(scoffs) (somber electric guitar music) - All the main food groups, coffee, hot chips, chocolate.

Eat something, okay, drink.

- Don't tell me what to do, I haven't been hit by a truck.

- So, tried calling Brick.

- His uncle said he left Queensland a week ago.

- Could be he found some work on the way down.

- And forgot the time and the day.

He just another guy who's too gutless to tell his girlfriend that he got a better offer.

- He'd have to be crazy.

- It fits.

I've never had a guy look me in the eye and tell me what he really feels.

(soft flute music) What was that meant to be?

- I'm sorry, you said.

- Jake just leave me alone.

Leave me alone.

(sighs) (sentimental music) - Righto this is good, you get over that jump you got plenty of room for a good turn, get a good head of steam down here over this jump, you got a nice solid landing clear.

- I don't know.

It's good takeoff footing over there.

Brave Jay's good but he's not the jumper I've seen.

- Claire, Peter's ahead in points right?

- Yeah, but we can't afford a refusal, there's no way Brave Jay's gonna refuse the low jump.

- Righto.

- We need a win, yeah?

- Wouldn't it be great Claire?

Would nail that poncy little jerk to the wall.

- I don't think abusing Peter is helping things out much.

- Man's gotta have a hobby.

- Hello again.

- You coming?

- In a minute.

(somber piano music) - So what are you thinking?

Should I book the registry office, or would you like to do the whole church thing?

- Alex and I have a business arrangement, I can't just hang him out to dry.

- Look, we'll sort something out.

There's always a role for Alex, that's what you want.

- I'm not saying I've made up my mind, I'm just saying he's a good mate.

- This mess is all gonna fade, Claire.

20 years from now we will laugh about it, it'll be the story of how we got together.

Look over dumb mistakes, and we're fighting, we'll laugh ourselves silly, and Alex'll be there too, laughing with us.

- Is that how it works, Peter?

- Bad stuff drops away.

What's left are stories, some old friends, and us.

(birds chirping) (gentle music) (horse clip-clopping) - You'll let me know if you're gonna do anything stupid, will you?

- Why start now?

- Ah, the McLeod sisters.

- Harry, Liz.

- Hello.

- Listen, we're neighbors and we're friends, so if you need a hand with anything just.

- Who have you been talking to, Harry?

- No, no, it just one odd rumor about Tess and her hotel breaking.

- That'd be Watergate Harry, way before my time.

- Oh look, there's Nick and Sally.

- Again.

Goodie.

- They getting on so well, and as it turned out, I've known her mother for absolutely years.

(chuckles) - Well get through this race, and then we'll get through this day, and then we'll get things sorted.

- [Nick] Psychedelic's up for the cross country yet?

- You mean more psyched up, we'd have to lock him up.

I might go check on him, actually.

- Sleep well?

- Got a room at the pub, slept like a baby, despite the mattress.

- Doesn't get the physio stamp of approval, eh?

- If I stay long enough, I'll get used to it.

- So any signs of germination yet?

- It's a bit early, give it a couple weeks.

- We're planting seeds together, it's a business relationship.

- Sounds good, is it a first?

- Well, it's a start.

- It's a one-off, I reckon.

Well see how it goes.

(somber orchestra music) (horse galloping) (suspenseful orchestra music) - I know what you're gonna do, and I've thought about it too, and it's a bad idea.

- But out, Tess.

- After everything that's happened- - I loved Peter, loved him!

Everything that could go wrong, did go wrong, and it was all wrecked.

Maybe it doesn't matter, maybe I've got a chance to keep the land I love doing the work I love with the man I love.

- [Tess] Yeah, but did you ever think why did it go wrong!

(sighs) - Try and eat up.

Try and kiss me again, Isabelle here's trying to bite.

- I'm sorry about that.

It was a good kiss, just bad timing.

- Who said it was good?

- I know I spelled out the rules, you know?

We'd be mates, and we'd have a few laughs, do a bit of boxing, and I know I said we could be friends, and I wouldn't want more.

- It's crap.

- You're right, Beck.

It was crap.

I fell for you.

The first time I found your ruffing through my cupboards.

I've been doing the just friends routine ever since, but I can't do it anymore.

I don't wanna be friends.

I want all of you.

(scoffs) I'm not a jerk, I haven't said anything, done anything because you and Brick.

- Yeah?

- He's left you in the lurch.

I reckon he's crazy, but maybe now.

- Who says he's left me.

(soft flute music) - Hey.

You all right?

- Yeah I'm okay, it's been a long day.

- Oh, and it's only lunchtime.

I guess you've been seeing a lot of Nick lately, you being over at his property a bit?

- Yeah, a bit.

- It's just that I need the goss, you know?

I can tell you're mates since something's bugging him.

- Maybe you should talk to Nick about that.

- Yeah, right.

- He's good at the frank chat thing.

- Tess, I need to know if Nick's seeing anyone, anyone serious?

(somber orchestra music) - Not that I know of.

- Thanks.

I just don't wanna tread on any toes.

- Well that's sweet of you.

- Well when I met Nick at the surgery, I thought cute boy, and then I got to know him, and he's a real one-off.

He's the first guy I found I can imagine changing my life for.

But hey, I'm drooling in front of you.

- Now I know why you came all this way on a house call.

- Oh, this is fun not work.

Anyway, I hope he won't be my patient much longer.

- Well that's too bad.

- Well you know the rules.

We're not meant to sleep with our patients.

- I'll just then.

(dog barking) (sheep bleating) - Get in here, come on now, come on now.

Get in here, get in.

(dogs barking) - Alberto!

Alberto!

I'm sorry, I really need to talk to you.

- No worries, I'm all ears Meg.

- You're about to travel to Italy and the world?

- That is the plan.

- Well I was just thinking, what the hell, I think you should wait, have the baby here, wait 'til it's old enough.

- Baby, me!

- Yes, Jodi!

This fantastic news!

Kara!

- Wait.

- Meg?

When you were pregnant with Jodi?

- When I was pregnant with Jodi, the first person I told was Kevin, her father.

The father should be the first to know, isn't that how it's done now.

- Well not always, it depends.

- Bloody Jodi, why hasn't she told him?

- Meg, it's hard being a solo parent, isn't it?

I mean really hard?

- Claire, you've got no idea how tough it is.

- Yeah.

- Oh my god, you're pregnant.

(somber orchestra music) Oh, I'm sorry.

Congratulations, which is it?

- Both, I suppose.

- Look Claire, we'll talk, but just right now there's a bit of a mess I have clean up.

- Meg, you love Drovers don't you?

You'd stick by it, no matter what I'd do.

- Of course.

(feet thudding) - Why is this a big secret, Kara?

- What are you on about?

- We have started our family, the first of six at least, maybe 10.

(speaking in foreign language) Fantastico!

- That is like so far into the future, and the lunch rush is hardly the time to start discussing the next decade to family, and what are you doing with those flowers instead of more sausages?

- Look, I'm sorry, I think I might've got the facts mixed up.

Jodi, you're not pregnant.

- Great I'll make a note of that, thanks mum.

- So not pregnant?

- No.

- But this would be perfect.

- No it would not.

We've been making plans for weeks, travel plans, not baby plans.

- You've been making plans, I've been making sausages.

- Time to spread the happy news?

- I kept it a secret for an hour.

(whimsical chime music) - What does Peter think about the baby?

- I haven't told him.

Don't say a word, okay?

- Yeah, rightio.

- He wants me back, Meg.

I think all our problems could go away if I agreed.

- Problems?

- Australian Blood Lines can take Drovers from us, Peter's the only one who can stop it from happening.

- What?

- She told you, it's a really crap idea, right?

We get to keep Drovers and Peter's around forever, or until he wrecks off again.

(somber orchestra music) She needs to know the truth.

- You know Tess, Claire was a lonely kid, she still is.

If she has some vision of the perfect family that she missed.

- Yeah, but Peter can't give her what she wants.

- Who are you thinking about here, Tess?

(somber orchestra music) - You wanna tell me what you two are doing for the rest of the day?

- Why?

- Because then I can be somewhere else.

- Tess, have you got a problem with me?

- You gave me no chance at all, Nick.

One mistake, one bad week, and that's it, it's over?

- You run hot and cold, Tess.

- Sally is permanently hot, is she?

Is that why Liz wheeled her in to warm your bed up?

- Forget mum, forget Sally, let's do it now, you and me!

- Do what?

- Come home with me, live with me, let's get your stuff and go, right now.

- Now?

- Right now!

- Take it or leave it.

- Nick, I would but I can't.

- There's always a reason to hide, isn't it?

- No, you don't understand.

- At least Sally knows what she wants, I don't think you have a clue.

(somber orchestra music) - You all right?

- I had this friend, who asked me once, is he the one for you?

Ba boom.

Ba boom.

If it feels right to marry Peter, if he's the one for you, then forget all the problems, go for the good parts.

Marry him.

I'd probably even get you a present.

(uplifting orchestra music) - I've made my decision.

I accept your proposal, provided you pass on my letter to Australian Blood Lines, and admit what a complete bastard you'll be.

- Whatever it takes, yes!

(groans) - There's a lot of details.

- Yes, yeah, yeah, absolutely.

So maybe after the challenge, we could get together and have dinner or something.

- Ah, this is great.

I mean Australian Blood Lines are gonna kick my ass out the door, you know?

Look, that doesn't matter because you are all I've ever wanted.

(somber orchestra music) (horse galloping) - Just piss off, will you?

- Alex, just face me will you.

- After everything he's done, you go running back to his bed, huh?

- Peter was hurt, I jilted the guy.

- Listen to me.

I'm gonna thrash the big ugly and open this rice, and then I'm back to being your neighbor.

See you when you need a cup of sugar.

- Hey, man I am so over grilled onions and sausages, but it's okay, 'cause we're making good money, and what have you done with Brick?

- He was a no show.

- That can't be right.

- Why not, he wouldn't be the first.

- Yeah, but this is Brick, okay?

The guy would wade through knee-deep funnel webs to get back to you.

- Yeah, I thought so too.

- This is weird, he said he was coming.

- What, you talked to him?

Why'd he call you?

- Okay, he needed to talk to a friend of yours, about something that he couldn't talk about with you.

- Tell me, Jo.

- You know he probably just missed the bus.

- Jodi what did he say to you, was is it important?

- It's supposed to be a secret.

He wanted to know if you like diamonds, rubies, or emeralds, in a ring.

- A ring.

- I said diamonds, 'cause they're to most expensive.

- A ring?

- Yeah.

- [Jodi] Oh but when you see him, can you try and act surprised, please?

- Yeah.

- Have you come to wish me luck?

- Oh, what you said before about the trouble would go, we'd find a way of being friends with Alex.

- Yeah sure, I'm mean he'll get over me.

- Well, I just had a talk with Alex, and it didn't go very well.

- Well, that's his choice Claire, if it comes down to just you and me.

- What does that mean?

- Well friends, they come and go, staff change jobs.

- What, you mean Meg, and Becky staff?

(scoffs) What about my sister?

- Well, she's got her own life too.

You and me Claire, that's what's important.

- You don't need many people around, do you?

- Look, you made up your mind before.

- I'm sorry Peter, but I need more than just the two of us.

(suspenseful orchestra music) - Oh what, now you're calling it off?

- There's just too much bad blood between us.

What we had isn't there anymore.

- It's time, Claire.

We just need time.

- I could do this if I loved you, Peter.

But it's gone.

(somber orchestra music) (sighs) - Sorry to be a nuisance, but you may as well have these.

They were for Jodi, but well now.

- Oh Terry, they're gorgeous, oh thank you.

- Yeah, they're cute and cuddly for a while, and when they grow up, duck stew.

- You old softie.

- You make the best duck stew, don't you?

Grandma Meg, you know I kinda like the sound of that.

- Do you, makes me wanna hit someone.

Do you want me to keep my distance, Terry?

- What gave you that idea?

- Some people.

Some people reckon I should stay clear of you.

- Nothing wrong with us being mates, eh?

(cheerful orchestra music) (machine whirling) (knife honing) - I've got something for you.

- I have a present for you also, not flowers this time.

(giggles) - I got it at the Jumbo store, we can do this trip so cheaply.

I mean with my savings, and the money we're making here, we can almost afford it.

We can go, Rome, Paris.

- You're always thinking about next week, next month.

- [Jodi] Yeah, of course.

- I'm thinking long term, about our life here, our family.

The roots we put down.

- Roots?

- Do we want roots?

- Our olive trees, one each.

- Oh, that's so sweet.

- We'll plant them at Drovers Run, we watch them grow, and give fruit.

- Alberto, how long until the first olives appear?

- Five years Kara, only five years.

(somber orchestral music) - Oh.

- Just about due for a tea break, if you're free.

- Actually.

- What's in the box?

(chuckles) - Cute.

They make good pets?

- They do, and then they make good casserole.

- Do they?

That's the way things go on the property, I guess.

- Yes Frank, we eat all our animal friends sooner or later.

- When we get together, I just wanted to ask an old question, where do we go from here?

I mean, it's been fun so far.

- It has been fun getting to know you, Frank.

(sighs) I think I might have to pass on that drink.

- Maybe next week?

- I don't think so.

(somber orchestra music) - Meg?

Ducklings, present from Terry right?

- Yeah.

- I suppose the duck's out on the question, then.

- You've been in the ring since day one, haven't ya?

- Get on, mate.

You got what you wanted, didn't you?

- You've been wide eyeing me since the day I turned up with these contracts, and you're doing it again today.

- Claire came to her senses, huh?

Well it's better now than a month down the track mate, but I guess you woulda probably settled for a month with her.

(suspenseful orchestra music) (horse clip-clopping) (groans) (screaming) - Don't touch it, just get Nick, get Nick.

- Somebody get Nick!

- Nick!

- He's dislocated his shoulder, again.

- Nick!

- Yeah, yeah, I can hear halfway to Fisher.

The usual, is it?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah, same old.

- Nick, do you want me to?

- No, no, I know the drill.

- Just do it fast.

- Yeah, ready?

- Yeah, yep, just get on with it!

- You ready?

- Yeah!

(screaming) - You all right?

- Yeah.

You sure?

- Yeah.

Come on, there you go.

- You do this often?

- Well, often enough.

- You all right?

- [Alex] Yeah, it wasn't easy, but I can handle it.

- Great, you're not gonna be riding in the cross country, are ya?

(sighs) - Becky!

Can't leave without saying goodbye.

- Bus won't hang around.

- Well good luck, and I hope you find him.

- Sure you do.

- Nah, I mean it.

Do you need any extra money or anything?

- Nah, I'll get by.

- Yeah, me too.

- Hey, thanks.

You're a mate, whatever you say.

(somber flute music) - Becky, wait!

Look, you can't go, okay my life just really complicated.

Alberto wants to stay here forever, he makes it sound almost romantic, but it's not.

- Stick with him Jodi, Alberto's one of the good guys.

- Becky please, you don't understand.

- Hey, say goodbye to everyone for me.

I don't wanna get talked outta this.

(uplifting orchestra music) - You've come back.

- How's business?

- I've been counting our money.

We've done well.

- You see?

Few more sausage sizzles and we can manage a short trip, at least.

- There is a way Kara, to do a longer trip.

You could take all our money and go.

- By myself?

But I wanna have adventures with you.

- I've been trying to explain, I'm already on an adventure.

All this, Drovers Run, our love, it's amazing for me!

- You'd let me fly away.

- I'll do your work for Claire and Tess, you go and have your fun, and then come home to me, okay?

(romantic orchestra music) (horse galloping) - Well, what's the point of this Claire, you're not prepared for it.

- What's the point of any race?

- Look, it's not the end of the world if Peter takes out the challenge.

- He's not gonna win.

I'm gonna ride him down, and whip his ass.

- But she's pregnant.

- Okay ladies and gentlemen, the competitors are assembled for the last leg of the Stockman's Challenge, and the Marshall is in attendance.

Peter Johnson on Solitaire is first off, galloping hardly well down to the first jump.

(crowd cheering) Next away should be Alex Ryan, but Alex is a late scratching, and that's fair right for the McLeod-Ryan team.

Filling his spot will be number three rider, whoa!

That's Claire McLeod riding Brave Jay, taking over for Alex Ryan to the gallop.

(upbeat electric guitar music) - This is pure sport you know, it's all totally unnecessary.

- Claire left me pretty, almost jumped the gun at the end.

- Yes, this race is the highlight ever year.

You don't understand anything, ask a local.

- You know Nick could go on this next year.

- He could indeed, thanks to Sally's hard work.

Oh, well done.

- Hey Candice, I can say it now.

I've really made an effort to get along with you, but I don't give a stuff anymore.

You are one of the most self centered and manipulative people that I have ever met.

- Excuse me?

- You've won.

You've saved Nick from me.

I wonder who'll save him from you.

(upbeat electrical guitar music) Bitch.

(upbeat electrical guitar music) - Get up.

What are you doing to me?

Get around, come on!

Look out!

(screaming) Claire!

Get off!

Claire, Claire it's Peter.

Claire, can you hear me?

God, somebody!

Claire it's Peter, squeeze my hand if you can hear me.

(suspenseful orchestra music) Go, go get an ambulance!

Everything's gonna be all right, Claire.

- Get an ambulance, Claire McLeod's down!

- Claire!

(ambulance siren) (somber orchestra music) (ambulance siren) - She's okay.

She's breathing, she's breathing.

- What's her name?

- Claire, Claire, please hurry!

(suspenseful orchestra music) Claire.

- Claire, can you hear me?

- Look she was trying to talk just a minute ago.

- My name's Julie, I'm an ambulance officer.

Had a bit of a tumble off your horse.

Get this helmet off.

- What have you done this time?

- Claire tried to take the top jump.

- What did you do!

- [Peter] It wasn't my fault!

- I'm gonna kill you!

- Yeah, pulse is weak and thready.

Claire, can you squeeze my hands?

- Claire!

Claire!

- [Alex] She's okay, she's hanging in there.

- [Tess] Oh my god.

- Tess.

- [Tess] I'm here Claire.

It's okay.

- Don't try and smile Claire, it all hurts.

- Brave Jay.

Brave Jay.

- [Alex] They're looking after him.

- Claire, I'll give you some morphine for the pain.

- There's something you should know.

She's pregnant.

- You said what?

- The baby.

It's not yours.

- It's mine.

I'm the father.

(suspenseful orchestra music) - I knew it.

- Peter.

Peter, this isn't finished yet.

- She's a bitch and she's outta my life.

- No she's not, you still got Claire's resignation letter, I want it back!

- Oh right, you think the pain just goes away like that, do you?

- I don't care if it does or not, give me the damn letter now!

(soft piano music) - She settled in?

- She lost a lot of blood.

Her leg's pretty bad, she'll be here for months.

- She'll love that.

(chuckles) What about?

- She's still pregnant.

- What a mess.

- Claire?

Got the letter, look.
