MANDY: It's me, Mandy, your girlfriend. You don't remember me?
Lassiter's grounds
Steph insists that Charlie and Archie explain why they were fighting. Charlie doesn't say anything, so Archie says Charlie tried to take his car. Charlie admits it. Julie arrives, and Archie accuses Charlie of bashing him and it really hurts.
JULIE: Let's get you to the doctor.
MARK: That's taking it a bit far isn't it?
JULIE: You only get to make that call when it's your child who's assaulted.
Waterhole
Mandy tells John that his name is Jason Jones, but she calls him "Bird". Paige asks about his family, so Mandy says they're not close. Paige asks about other friends, and she says they didn't need anyone else. She explains how she's just come back from Africa, where she'd been "on a break". He says it's frustrating not being able to remember anything.
MANDY: Bird, I love you. I'm not giving up on you.
Paige scowls.
Lassiter's Rotunda
Walter and Terese are meeting up in the rotunda and Sonya and Aaron are stalking watching. Aaron comments that it's weird, and remembers his dad and Sheila. How ageist. Sonya changes the subject, and asks Aaron to promote the nursery. They look over to see Walter and Terese kissing. Aaron tells Sonya not to look, so they leave.
Lassiter's Complex
Steph continues to ask Charlie about the fight, because she doesn't understand his reasons. She says the air show's off. He says it sucks.
STEPH: Yeah, it does. Yes. So maybe you'll remember that next time you think about fighting someone.
Waterhole
Sonya tells Terese she saw her with Walter. Terese says that he's funny and interesting, and when she's with him, it's a relief not to have to think about other things.
TERESE: You know, you really should give him a chance. OK, I know it's your turn to tell me to mind my own business, but when I see people wasting time, I just want to grab them and shake them...
SONYA: I don't think I have the emotional reserves to deal with this right now... to open myself up, to get hurt... I can't take that risk.
TERESE: Yeah, I understand. I guess I'm just looking at it in a different way now. You know, if I could just go back in time and have one more day with Josh. You know we all think that we've got all the time in the world to say and do what we want, but then life comes along and slaps you down.
Sonya apologises for upsetting her, and Terese says she doesn't want her to live with regret. Sonya looks troubled.

JULIE: I was quite surprised to see that Cecilia Saint was one of their new employees. Isn't she the woman who came forward to testify against Paul?
TERESE: Yes, yes, I believe so. It's great she's got a job.
JULIE: Terese, I don't want to know how it happened, and this will be the last time we speak of it. Whatever it takes to take Paul to jail, that's all we care about.

Sonya tells Aaron that she can only remember her parents going to a masquerade ball once - on the night they died - and she can't remember Walter being around. If he had been, he might have been expected to stick around at a time like that. She tells Aaron how Walter said it was a different occasion.
SONYA: I don't believe him. My parents, they weren't the ball-going type.
Aaron suggests she get hold of the accident report to find out what actually happened.
