MICHAEL: Nobody wanted this, Hannah.
HANNAH: You did! You're glad she's dead!
HELEN: Hannah!
MICHAEL: Hannah, we're all in the same boat. We all miss her.
HANNAH: You don't! You tried to kill her before!
They descend into a babble of argument.
PHIL: CUT IT OUT! ALL OF YOU!

He storms out.

MICHAEL: Worse for Hannah.
PHIL: Yeah. Pretty rought on you and Debbie, too. Wish I could make up for that.
MICHAEL: Dad...
PHIL: When I married Julie, I thought I was giving you a second mum, a chance at a normal family routine.
MICHAEL: Dad, I want to help.
PHIL: You are helping.
MICHAEL: I meant after the funeral.
PHIL: What do you mean?
MICHAEL: I mean, stay here, not go back to the Brosnan Centre
PHIL: I couldn't ask that of you.
MICHAEL: I could work at the newsagency.
PHIL: You've got a new life up there, I don't expect you to stay!

PHIL: I'll be alright. It's just going to take a little time, that's all.

BRETT: You're very brave.
HELEN: No I'm not. It sounds hackneyed, but life does go on.

No.26
HELEN: So, Michael found you.
PHIL: Yeah, he came down to the Waterhole. We talked.
HELEN: Each time he comes home, he seems to be more grown up.
PHIL:(holding back tears) It's like a nightmare, Helen. I keep seeing her, lying there on the... I can't help it. I can't remember her as alive, happy. I can't...what are they looking for?
HELEN:(sympathetically) It'll soon pass, Philip. For a time in our lives, we shared a wonderful person. And that's what we have to concentrate on now.
No.22
Brett thinks that Michael has changed. Michael says he likes it at the Centre - people aren't obsessed with fashion and things. He's moved on from Danni now.

Lou also asks Phil about the Bash and Phil says he'll have to bail out. Lou suggests they go out to the Bush for a couple of hours and Phil agrees - if they can go out towards Glentown. He'd like to put some flowers on his mother's grave.

No.30
Danni wants to stop Karl moving in to Ramsay Street. Sam hopes he hasn't got any kids! Paulo asks Danni to design her own earrings. Ren tells Sam and Cody that Cheryl is going over- the- top with the baby competition. Ren herself doesn't like competitions for babies.
No.22
Lou and Phil arrive back. Phil is still extremely down and very subdued. He thanks Lou for getting him out of the house, then asks him if he'll come to Julie's funeral.
PHIL: Lou...about the funeral.
LOU: Oh, no sweat, Phil, you want to keep it a family affair.
PHIL: Actually, I was hoping you'd be there.
LOU: Really?
PHIL: Well yeah, you *should* be there. You and Julie were partners.
LOU: Yeah, we were.
PHIL: And I was wondering...I'd appreciate it...if you could say something, or read something.
LOU: You mean, like a ulogy?
PHIL: Yeah, just something simple.
LOU: I don't know, Phil, I'm not really cut out for that sort of thing, mate.
PHIL: You see, mate, I...I don't think I can.
Lou nods.
LOU: Well, in that case, if you think I'm the man for the job...
He nods his agreement.
No.26
Phil is on the phone to the funeral director. The autopsy is complete and the funeral will be the day after tomorrow. There are no results from the autopsy yet.
DEBBIE: Could she have been saved if someone had got to her sooner?
PHIL: I asked the same question. It wouldn't have made any difference. She had massive internal injuries.
HELEN: Well, at least it was merciful, she wouldn'thave suffered any pain. We can be grateful, to some extent, for that.
PHIL: I've asked Lou to read a short piece at the funeral. He'll be the only non- member of the family to be involved.
HELEN: Philip, I think asking Lou is wonderful, he'll do it very well...
PHIL: Yes, I think it's right. They were partners.
HELEN: Yes, but Julie was very much loved. There are many people who would very much like to pay their last respects.
PHIL: With a quiet ceremony, the family can farewell her privately. She'd prefer that.
No.22
Danni is all dressed up and tells Brett she's out to impress Michael. Brett advises her to give Michael some space. She tells him she's scared Michael doesn't want her anymore.
There's a knock at the door and it's Michael, so Brett makes himself scarce.
Michael tells Danni that things are rough at home. She suggests they go out for the day tomorrow, but says he has to think of his family first.
DANNI: Michael...do I still mean anything to you?
MICHAEL: You do...just not as much as before.
DANNI: Um...are you saying it's over between us?
He is silent.
DANNI: Michael, do you love me at all?!
