- Bad dream?

- What you reckon it means?

The grub.

- Well I haven't done my Dream Analysis course yet Perri,

so I'd be making the meanings up.

- Have a go anyway.

- I don't know.

Maybe the grub is something that you're worried about.

Not that you've got anything to worry about.

I mean from where I'm standing,

your life looks pretty peachy perfect to me.

Doing well at school, surfing like a demon, a guy that

digs you for the stuff in your head.

Although I'm sure he's keen on the stuff on the outside too.

- Ah, like Edge is any different.

- Edge is definitely different.

I almost forgot.

Someone left a note for you under our door last night,

and by the way, the envelope smells of bad aftershave.

I'm guessing it was Matt.

- Where is it?

- At home.

I'll race you.

You and I pretty good friends, Perri?

- Very good.

Maybe even best.

Why?

- Just thought I'd check before I demand

to know what Romeo had to say.

Uh, my feet must be rotting.

He's not breaking up with you, is he?

- No.

- Well what then?

- He wants to know what makes me tick.

" I want to know your dreams, your hopes,

the deepest thoughts you have

when you think no one is listening."

- Wow.

Boy's got it bad.

Well, smile Perri.

This is a good thing.

This is like double peaches with sugar on top.

- [Perri] Bec is right.

There's no grub in my peach.

I just need to stop looking for problems

and appreciate what I've got.

My life is cloud nine material.

[creepy music)

[screams)

- Oh.

And he was...

And I just...

- Great, yeah.

Is he still there?

- I don't know.

- Let's go have a look.

- [Anna] It's probably some old guy sleeping rough.

They're around here all the time.

- Hey.

- I'm just being stupid.

- No, no.

You just got a shock, that's all.

[calm piano music)

- [Perri's Head] Oh, no, no, no.

This is not happening.

- Well whoever it was, they've gone.

You okay?

- I, um.

I've got to go to the bathroom.

[calm piano music)

Now you listen here you reader.

Whatever you think just happened didn't happen.

All right?

You do not have a thing for Edge.

He's not even your type.

He's a caveman.

And even if you did.

And even if he weren't.

He's your best friend's boyfriend.

So enough with the crazy thinking, okay?

[knocks)

- Everything all right Perri?

- Yeah.

Everything's peachy.

[smooth rock music)

[distant conversation and giggling)

- [Perri's Head] Stop it you loony.

- Freedom and weep.

- What is a shaboogal?

- Nonsense is what it is.

You can't make up words.

- I didn't make it up.

It's a real word.

As in the whole kit and shaboogal.

- Caboodle is the word I think you're looking for Heath.

Kit and caboodle.

Anyway, you miss a turn for trying to cheat.

- You guys have no creative spirit, you know that?

[chuckling)

[smooth music)

- Uh, I'm done.

- What have you lost?

- A ring.

My parents gave it to me for Christmas.

They'll freak if I've lost it.

- Are you sure you put it on?

- Yeah, I remember having it on after training.

- Well maybe you lost in the shed after you got that fright.

- Maybe.

Well I'll look for it in the morning.

It's too dark now.

- You're just a bit nervy to go out

in case Frankenstein's back for bed and breakfast, eh?

- I'm not scared Heath.

- I'll go with you.

I got a fin I need to change for the morning.

So no worries.

- Well could you maybe just look

for it while you're out there?

- Do I look like a servant?

- [Anna] Who's go is it now?

[solemn violin music)

[boxes falling)

- Whoa, you are wound up, aren't ya?

- Sorry.

- Too easy.

[rushing sound)

- Oh no.

- Whoa, um.

- I'm sorry.

I don't know why I did that.

- It's cool.

Don't worry about it.

- Um.

- Here.

- Thanks for your help.

[solemn music)

- [Perri's Head] What do you think it means?

The grub.

Well it seems pretty obvious really.

It's you Perri.

The grub is you.

You are the grub.

- [Bec] Hey, there you are.

We were about to send out the search party.

Did you find it?

- Find what?

- Your ring?

The thing you went looking for.

- Oh, yes.

Sure did.

- Here, have a seat.

[dinner table talk)

- [Heath] Taste even better.

- Edge, can you pass me some bread?

[solemn music)

[slithering noises)

- Heath!

You know someone put a lot of time

and energy into inventing the fork.

You might want to give it a go.

[laughing)

- Um, I don't feel very good.

I think I'm gonna lie down.

[laughing)

[solemn music)

- We decided you were excused from this morning's run

because you needed a good sleep.

- Are the roses from Matt?

- Guess again.

- [Perri's Head] Oh no.

- You got some secret admirer you're not telling me about.

- Um, uh.

- They're from me you noodle.

I went home this morning and the front garden's full of them

- Thank you.

They're beautiful.

- Well, come on.

Get your skates on if you're going

to make this training session with Deb.

[energetic music)

- Everyone ready?

Well go on!

Go.

Okay, now it's probably going to feel

a bit heavier than usual, right?

- [Group] Yeah.

- We're gonna start with laps.

Then we'll see how we're all feeling.

- Excuse me Deb, unless you plan on getting in here with us,

I don't think you can use the word "we".

- She's not gonna get in.

She needs to stay up there so she can actually see our pain.

- Well believe it or not, I'm not doing this

for my own enjoyment.

- [Group] Yeah right.

- [Perri's Head] Now if I just let go of the side

of the pool I could sink down and forget just how badly

I've screwed everything up.

- You're not getting away with it that easily.

- You got that right.

- Hey.

- Hi.

- Um, I just wanted to say sorry again

for what happened last night.

- Forget about it.

- And to check that's what we're doing.

Forgetting about it.

- What else would we be doing?

- Nothing.

- Right.

Weird stuff happens.

It's no big deal.

- You're not angry then?

I mean, I kissed you.

- I get angry about a lotta things Perri,

but kissing's not one of them.

So don't fret.

- Yeah.

Right.

[serious energetic music)

- Bec!

Bec, wait!

- If you keep following me, Perri, you'll be sorry.

- More trouble in paradise?

- Looks like it.

[serious energetic music)

- Bec, Bec!

- Leave me alone Edge.

- Ah, Beck.

She kissed me.

I had nothing to do with it, I swear.

- I don't want to hear it.

Was it good?

The kiss?

- She was freaked out.

It was nothing.

- Well if it was so nothing, then you would've come inside

and said, " Hey Bec, the weirdest thing just happened.

Perri just tried to kiss me."

But you didn't do that.

Instead you and Perri worked out how to keep it a secret

and you don't keep secrets about things which are nothing.

[crashes)

- So, tomorrow's a free day.

What excellent adventures can we get up to?

No ideas?

[loud crash)

I thought maybe we can sit and talk about why

certain people aren't getting along

with certain other people.

[loud crash)

Or we could just hit some stuff together really hard.

- Oh, seems like I haven't cooked enough.

Here Perri.

Why don't you take mine.

Cause you're really good at taking what's mine.

- If someone's hungry, feel free.

- Aye, do you know what's going on?

- I gonna eat outside.

- They're having some sort of lover's tiff.

- I have no idea what's going on,

but Perri's been acting really weird since yesterday.

- Maybe she got in the middle of a fight or something.

- Maybe we all need to get out of here.

Stop thinking about surfing for seconds.

- Might work.

- Hey, if you guys been to Garret island?

[knocking)

- Uh, have you two got a sec?

- Yeah sure Bec.

What is it?

- I want to change rooms.

- What for?

- Uh just felt like a change.

- Well what brought this on?

I thought you and Perri were best mates.

- No reason, just wanted a change.

- Did you speak to the other girls about it?

- Well unless there's a big reason,

I don't think it's right to upset

the applecard at this stage.

I mean there's only a few weeks left.

[knocking)

- It's like Central Station tonight.

C'mon in.

Wanna change rooms too?

- Is that what Bec was here for?

- Is there something going down that we should know about?

- Um everyone's just a bit tense at the moment.

We're probably all getting on each other's nerves.

- I'm not getting on anyone's nerves.

But the real reason that we are here

is we thought it'd be good for morale

if we spent some time doing something fun.

You know, lighten the mood a little bit.

- Oh yeah?

- Have you been to Garret Island?

Well it's just a few caves from the Point

and we thought go and have a barby.

Maybe take the volleyball gear.

Be back before sunset.

- And you want to know if you can borrow the tinny

to get there, right?

- We'll be the most responsible

young people you can imagine.

[solemn music)

- I just want you to know that

that Edge had nothing to do with it

It was all my fault.

I'm so sorry Bec.

- Do you think the fun will kick in soon?

- Yeah give it a week or two.

This place will be rocking.

- Has anyone seen Perri?

- She was walking around those rocks.

- Someone needs to go and tell her lunch will be on soon.

And I'm voting for you.

- Hey.

- Hi.

Watcha you doing?

- Rehearsing a speech I'm going to make to you.

I can't decide whether to give you the long version

or the short one.

- Well if it's a breaking up speech,

I'd rather have the short one if it's all right.

- It's not a breaking up speech.

But I'm pretty sure when I'm finished,

you'll want to break up with me.

♪ We're through ♪

- I'm all ears.

♪ We're through ♪

- Excellent timing.

[energetic music)

- Where is he going?

- What happened Perri?

- I told him.

- You told him what?

- That I kissed Edge.

♪ We're through ♪

- At least now this all makes sense.

♪ We're through ♪

- He'll be back.

- You reckon?

- You guys back already?

- No, I decided not to go.

- Why is that?

- Not in the mood.

- Well there's a bit of that going around.

Not in the moodness.

- Why is Matt back so soon?

- Said he didn't want to go.

- Well he was in the tinny when it left.

I saw them all go.

- Just, I don't know, maybe try holding it up.

- If I hold it up, I can't talk.

- What's the use of mobile phones anyway.

They never work when you need them to?

[Heath and blonde girls grumbling)

- Was it bad?

- Yeah.

It was bad.

Not as bad as you,

but then again, maybe Matt's better

at hiding his complete disgust.

I'd be happy to take a list of demands.

Cleaning your room for the rest of the year.

Walk naked down the main street, wear a bag on my head.

Whatever.

But if there isn't anything I can do

to get things back on track, I'd rather know

because then I can stop hoping

I can work out how to fix things.

- The bag on the head option sounds kind of interesting.

For starters.

- I've got a signal.

- Ah, yes.

C'mon, c'mon.

- Hi Simmo, it's Anna.

We're kinda stuck.

[slow beach music)

- Perfect [mumbles) eye candy.

Just the thing to take your mind off your troubles.

Supposing you have any troubles.

Which I'm assuming you do considering

you left the others on an island

to die a slow and painful death from starvation.

I got a call from Anna.

- I'm going to go back and get them.

I just keep putting it off.

- Mate, just because you had a blue with one of them

doesn't mean you can dump the rest of 'em in it.

Now I'm happy to go and pick them up, unless you want to.

- I'd rather not.

- Okay, you stay here and chill out a bit.

- Thanks Simmo.

- Mate, I don't know exactly what's happened,

but don't be so quick to pull up a drawbridge.

People do stupid things.

It's not the end of the world.

Never been a argument yet that can't be sorted out.

[smooth rock music)

Any one want a lift?

- Is Matt um...

- He's chillin' out.

I felt like coming for a spin.

Look guys.

No one expects you to live like happy families.

But you do have to learn to get along.

Now it's natural for emotions to run high from time to time,

but you got to remember this is a competition.

You let your emotions get the better of you,

you can kiss your chances goodbye.

- But you can't run away from things either.

- No, you can sort them out.

Responsibly.

Now, if anyone's got a problem with that

this might not be such a bad place

to spend the next month or so.

Great.

I love it when we all agree.

Let's go home.

[engine roaring)

[guitar strumming)

[knocking)

- Well I guess it's chow time for this stinky bunny.

- You coming in?

- Am I invited in?

- I'm not really sure you want to hear anything

I have to say, but it'd be really good

if you could hear me out.

I've never really had a letter like the one you wrote.

And the truth is, it did freak me out a bit.

Because it made me realize that you really like me.

I don't know, the whole thing with Edge

was something that just happened on the spur of the moment.

I mean, I was freaked out and he was there.

- We all do stupid things sometimes.

- Do you?

- Me especially.

It's not the end of the world.

- You are amazing Matt.

And you're making me like I've just made

the biggest blunder of my life.

Do you think we could still be friends?

- I don't know.

If we're friends I'll probably still want to know

all that stuff about you.

What makes you tick.

- That sounds nice.

So nice, in fact, I'm starting to wish

we didn't have to split up at all.

- Who said anything about splitting up?

[soft rock music)

- How come you never offered me

the bag on my head punishment

as a way to get out of the doghouse?

- Too easy.

Anyway, Simmo made a pretty strong case

as to why I should fast track things back to normal.

- Well if we're broken up, I understand.

But, I just wish you'd give me a bit more warning

because the last kiss I scored wasn't from you.

I mean, if I had know what was gonna happen,

I would have given myself something much better to remember.
