So I'm wondering, what should
I do this financial year?
Is it a good time to expand,
like, hire new staff,
or should I just play it safe,
maybe...
- PSYCHIC: The fool.
- Ay, no!
The fool means new beginnings.
Ah. Great!
Not necessarily.
One chapter starting
means another chapter ends.
Sunrise comes after night.
But sunrise is good, right?
- Like, in a business sense...
- Death.
No, that's bad.
Not necessarily.
Death can mean a time
of looking inwards,
of introspection.
OK, so don't expand.
It can also mean death.
Death of who? Someone I know?
No, because there's this really
old woman in my life.
She cannot die right now
because I really need her.
What is it?!
Going on any trips
in the near future?
- No, no, I wasn't.
- You can't.
The spirits have...
have shown me...
...a plane crash.
There's a plane crash card?
There are new beginnings
on the horizon,
there's death and introversion
and there's a plane...
- A plane crash.
- ...crash.
Hmm.
[SIGHS] Yeah, OK. Um...
Do you take EFTPOS?
Oh, I do.
Huh.
And Antoinette will be back...
Next week.

Mm.

[CHIMING]
You know, you said
you were on the pill.
I was.
It gave me acne,
so I switched kinds.
There must have been a window.
For what, the sperm to get in?
Not an actual window.
There just must have been
a few days when it could happen.
You're telling me it happened,
like, it definitely happened?
I did five tests.
[SEB SIGHS]
We had sex this morning.
Could that make it twins?
You know what I'm gonna do?
Men step up when they need to,
so I'm gonna step up.
I'll sell my Xbox.
You know, I'll quit school.
f*ck school.
I don't even need school.
I'll start DJ'ing full time.
And then I can generate
a decent income
and then we can move in
together.
- We can take care of the kid...
- Come and look at these.
What's... What's...
What am I looking at?
ab*rtion clinics.
Oh, thank God.
SEB: $600?
I don't have that.
Umm... what about your parents?
[SCOFFS]
My Catholic, overprotective,
Peruvian parents?
Well, clearly they wouldn't
want to have the baby.
It's not a baby.
It's microscopic cells,
just the blueprint of a baby.
You know, I reckon I got
My friend sells foot pics
on the internet.
What?
No. No!
That's gross.
Just leave it with me
and I'll find the money.
Do I have to pay double
if it's twins?
OK, yep.
It does say here you've booked
one room with three beds.
No, I booked three rooms
with one bed.
Three separate rooms
for three separate people,
one with wheelchair access.
Yes. The room you booked
does have wheelchair access.
That's not a problem.
Yeah, the problem
is that there are three of us.
[PARROT SQUAWKS SOFTLY]
Why is everyone saying
the word 'problem'?
Uh-oh.
What have you done now, Oly?
Oh, wow, what gorgeous birds!
I know.
They're my angels.
Stunning!
MARCUS: OK, Oly, what happened?
Nothing, Marcus.
Just a slight hiccup
with the booking.
No need to go snitching.
The colours.
Where are they from?
They're from heaven,
'cause they're my angels.
[BOTH LAUGH]
You've only just rejoined
the team, Oly.
Would be a shame
to drop the ball this early.
Could I get a selfie
with them on me?
[PARROTS SQUAWK SOFTLY]
Darling, no.
These birds are
my life partners, you know?
Now, I wouldn't go
and ask for a selfie with...
...with your husband
or your life partner on me...

- SHAUNA: ..would I?
MARCUS: Would you look at that?
It's margarita o'clock.
- Please grab our room keys.
- Key.

And we have a 'no pet' policy.
[PARROT SQUAWKS SOFTLY]
'No pet' policy?
Pets.
[PARROT SQUAWKS SOFTLY]
- Oly...
- Mm?
...once again, you're fired.
MARCUS: Pff!
Do you realise
how stressful it is for parrots
to take 400 selfies
with a stranger?
[PARROTS SQUAWK]
They're not prostit*tes.
Sex workers.
No, you're right, sorry.
Sex workers.
They're not sex workers, Oly.
[DOOR OPENS]
Ah, who cares?
We won't be sleeping anyway.
Let's go to the pool.
Don't we have to work on
your talk?
Yes, you do.
I've got to spoon these babies.
They're both stressed out.
So you go do it somewhere else.
- [PARROT SQUAWKS]
- Get out.
Go on.
Phil and Lil, I'm so sorry.
- MARCUS: Pool! Pool! Pool!
- LACHIE: Oh, my...
Oh, my gosh! I am so sorry.
- MARCUS: Watch out!
- I didn't mean to do that.
- I just...
- Lachie!
Hey, Oly.
What are you doing here?
I'm... presenting tomorrow
at the ethical start-ups panel.
- I thought you were in...
- Seattle.
Um, yeah, I am.
Hang on.
- OLY: Wow.
- Wow.
I'm sensing... a little history
here from you.
A little bit of a g*y vibe
from you.
[CHUCKLES] Bi.
Oh.
LACHIE: Um, this got weird.
- [DEVICE BEEPS]
- I... Oh, sh**t.
Sorry, I have to go,
but it was so good to see you.
Maybe we could catch up,
if you have time.
Unless you're too busy.
No.
Uh, yes.
That would be great.
[PARROTS SQUAWK]
Cool.

- No!
- Yes.

Wait, wait,
how do you know that?
Know what?
That Lilliana's pregnant.
[GASPS AND GIBBERS]
SEB: Don't freak out, Mum.
We booked a clinic.
It's gonna be fine.
- It's...
- [GASPS]
She's getting an ab*rtion?
No.
She can't get an ab*rtion.
She can't have the baby.
She doesn't want a baby.
Oh, well, she can't have a baby.
Because she is a baby!
Why didn't the psychic warn me
about this?
It's happening again. This is...
[BREATHES DEEPLY]
Mama, Lilliana,
she was wondering if...
Ah! [LAUGHS MIRTHLESSLY]
¿Qué? ¿Qué?
[BREATHLESSLY] ¿Qué? ¿Qué?
No.
No, listen to me, listen to me.
She is underage,
and I...I don't know,
but I think that is a crime,
to pay for a child's ab*rtion!
Or a couple of crimes, maybe.
I need to speak with
her parents.
No.
Yes. Get me her mother's number,
Sebastian.
- You know what? It's fine.
- What?
- Sebastian... Sebastian Jose!
- Forget it. It's fine.
[ROSA CONTINUES IN SPANISH]
Sebastian.
Sebastian Jose!
[SCREAMS] Sebastian Jose!
MARCUS: Hey, Oly,
look at this one.
Oh, you're not looking
'cause I got you fired.
No, I'm not looking
'cause I'm trying to make
Shauna's five-year
traffic management plan
sound interesting.
Would you like to add anything?
Actually, me telling Shauna
you planned on ratting her out,
kinda stopped her
going through with the deal.
The ill*gal deal.
Yeah, but in a way, kind of
a hero in this situation.
And you're back working here,
so maybe you should
just get over it.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
- See ya.
- LACHIE: 'Bye.
Oh, this is not good.
OLY: What were you guys
talking about?
Oh, nothing.
And everything.
[SHAUNA CHUCKLES]
I mean, 'cause I haven't
seen him for years,
and I was a different person
when I was with him.
Mm, yeah. Yeah, sure.
He probably hates me.
SHAUNA: Mm. Mm.
Is that what he said,
that he hates me?
He said lots of things.
Oh, he said so much.
The thing is, is that I wanted
him to be the father.
I wasn't trying to trick him.
He could have been.
'Cause you were
sleeping with him
at that same time you were
sleeping with Santa.
Santi, yes. No! I...
[SIGHS] OK, once.
God, why is he here
and why is he telling everyone
everything?
Pff.
He isn't, actually.
We were talking
about restaurants. [CHUCKLES]
Tough nut to crack, actually.
Unlike some. [LAUGHS]
Bleugh! [LAUGHS]
MARCUS: Yeah, spark up
the old flame, Oly!
You know what they say.
What happens at the conference
stays at the conference!
I'll remember that.
That is a weird motto
for a conference about
disseminating ideas.
SHAUNA: Oh! [SIGHS]
[QUIRKY PERCUSSIVE MUSIC]
- Did you know about this?
- No.
How do you know
what I'm talking about?
Because I heard you screaming.
I'd say the whole suburb knows.
Well, I need you
to make me a promise.
Don't get anyone pregnant,
I got it.
If you even think about
getting anyone pregnant,
I'll beat you with my shoe.

No, you haven't.
But how can she be so stupid?
She didn't do it on purpose
and it's not just her fault.
Well, she told you
she was on birth control
so it is her fault.
Mum, just chill out.
You don't even

What are you doing

I don't want it anymore.
It's kids' stuff.
WOMAN: Our research showed
that retrofitting
a standard kilowatt
photovoltaic module
to power immediate areas
has the potential to save...
[WHISPERS] What have I missed?
Um...
...nothing.
Three pages of nothing.
Are you OK?
Yeah.

No, my boss is.
You should come.
You know, I would,
but I'm afraid I'd be dead

Oh! Uh!
- Ugh!
- WOMAN: ..nine times...
- OLY: Shh!
- LACHIE: Ugh!
[CLEARS THROAT] Sorry.
Dita, um, it's me again,
so please call me back
or I'm coming over.
What the hell?
Excuse me, Lilliana, have you
been upstairs the whole time?
What are you doing here?
Seb said you'd be at work.
He said I'd have the place
to myself.
Uh, well, I'm sorry
to ruin your plans.
I would have stayed upstairs,
but I got hungry,
you know,
now that I'm eating for two.
So this is a joke to you, hm?
I heard what you said.
You think I'm stupid.
I don't think you're stupid.
I-I...
I think that you put yourself
in a stupid situation.
Now, I googled it. You need
an adult at the clinic.
So is your mother
going with you?
Maybe I should just have it.
Maybe this is like a new chapter
for me or something.
Don't be ridiculous, Lilliana.
Sí, I have to take care
of my family
and your mother
has to take care of hers.
Why do girls have to get IUDs
and take the pill
and get ab*rtion
and boys just get to do
whatever they want?
It's unfair.
So...
...I can't stay here?
Listen, if... if you were
my daughter...
...I would want you
to tell me, OK?
- She'll understand.
- [SCOFFS]
[SPEAKS SPANISH]
She will understand.
[CHOKES UP] Fine.
So I actually brought
my parrots to the conference.
- They're in the room.

- Just in a cage in the room?
- Yes!

- So that's Phil and that's Lil.

- SHAUNA: They are!
- Like a little married couple.
- Just look at it!
Oh, my...
I don't need to.
'Cause I trust you.
And you know why I trust you?
'Cause I trust me.
And I trust this.
- Sparkle.
- The sparkle.
Obviously.
So I delegate, you do the work
and then I get up and wow 'em
using the...
- Sparkle.
- MARCUS: Sparkle.
SHAUNA: The sparkle!
Oi, she's freaking out, right?
Yeah, 'cause she's just
run into her ex,
and she's now deciding
should she hook up with him
or not?
Oh, right.
And she hasn't told him
that she's pregnant.
[GASPS]
How do you know that?
MARCUS: That reaction.
[SHAUNA LAUGHS]
- Good one, yes.
- Congratulations!
Don't congratulate her
on getting laid.
How far along are you?
Uh, I've got my 12-week scan
on Friday.
I couldn't do anything
when I was pregnant.
You're impressive.
And yet she struggles
to make a hotel booking.
- [SHAUNA CACKLES]
- Thank you.
It is challenging
doing the work of three people
while also trying to
cheat on my husband
with my high school
ex-boyfriend.
Good for you.
And the only reason that these
two are so invested in my life
is because they can't admit
to each other
that they're in love.
[GASPS] Oh. Oh, is that true?
Which part?
All of it?
Oh, come on, Marcus.
As if you're not in love
with her.
[LAUGHS AWKWARDLY]
Yeah, he's totally obsessed.
Well, um... I'm gonna go
because this is
none of my business.
But, uh, have a good night.
