Al: What I want? What I want is for you to confess to the murder of Shane Wilson eight years ago.
Fisher: I never murdered anyone. Release me!
Al: No! You’re getting what you deserve!
*Fisher struggles against his bonds*
Al: Look at you! You are pathetic, mate! I don’t know what Bobby sees in you!
Fisher: You should talk after the way you used to treat her when she was a child!
Al: I treated her just fine!
Fisher: I beg to differ.
Al: I’ll be right back. You just stay put! *leaves*

Home and Away Episode #700: Fight For it (Part 2)

The next morning (Sunday), Jo is shopping at the 5 Star Supermarket in Wandin Valley when she overhears Esme gossiping about Kierain.

Esme: You should’ve seen the lout at the club last night. He was all over Jo Loveday, despite the fact that he has a girlfriend named Cody.

*Jo is furious when she hears this!*

Esme: Well that Jo Loveday is a common…

*Before Esme can finish talking to her friend, Jo storms over and lets her have it!*

Jo: A COMMON WHAT?!

Esme: Why hello Jo. *laughs weakly*

Jo: IF I EVER HEAR YOU TALK BADLY ABOUT MY NEW BOYFRIEND AGAIN, I’LL FIX YOU!

Esme: HOW DARE YOU!

Jo: NO, HOW DARE YOU…BITCH!

*Esme and her friend gasp in shock*

Woman: Well, I never!

Esme: YOU DISRESPECTFUL GIRL! YOUR PARENTS SHOULD BE ASHAMED!

Jo: OH SHUT UP YOU DRIED-UP OLD PRUNE! YOU ARE A GOSSIP! A NO-GOOD, SLEAZY GOSSIP!

*Shoppers stare at Jo and Esme*

Esme: Oh.

Jo: NOW RACK OFF!

*Esme starts to cry as Jo storms off*

(Meanwhile, Lois Griffin is at her old house when she again plots to take Kierain.)

Lois: It won’t fail this time!

*Lois drives around town and sees Kierain*

Lois: There you are! *smirks*

Kierain: Get away from me! GET A--

*Lois silences Kierain with her hand*

Lois: Shut up! I have you now and this time you won’t get away!

*Lois drags Kierain to the car*

Lois: INSIDE!

*Lois shoves Kierain inside the back before getting into her car and driving off*

Lois: We’re going back to my old house!

*A few minutes later, they arrive at Lois’s old house*

Lois: Here we are!

*Lois takes Kierain out of the car*

Kierain: Let me go!

Lois: NO! Like I said, you won’t get away!

*Lois drags Kierain inside and throws him into a room*

Lois: This is where you’ll be staying! I’ll give you your meals in this room! Enjoy your stay! *laughs at Kierain before leaving the room and locking the door*

*Kierain starts to cry*

Kierain: Oh Peggy. I just wish you could save me.

In his hideout, Al is boasting about his crimes to Fisher.

Al: You see, Don. I’m smarter than the average dog. I got away with murder for eight years. Shane Wilson thought I wouldn’t kill him, but I did! *laughs*

Fisher: You really have no compassion for anyone! You make me sick, Simpson!

Al: Oh, that’s not very nice.

*Al gets in Fisher’s face*

Al: It’s ironic, isn’t it? Finding out that a girl you hate for years is actually your biological daughter.

Fisher: More than I can say for you! You used to beat Bobby up like an old punching bag! I wouldn’t be surprised if you did the same to Sophie!

Al: And what’s THAT supposed to mean, you old fart?!

Fisher: It means that you are a pathetic loser!

Al: If I’m a pathetic loser, why have I gotten away with the murder of Shane Wilson?

*Police barge their way in*

Bob Barnett: That’s all I wanted to hear!

*Constable Janet Walsh unties Fisher*

Janet: Are you okay Mr Fisher?

Fisher: I’m fine. Just take me home.

Bob: Al Simpson, you are under arrest for the murder of Shane Wilson and the kidnapping of Donald Fisher. It looks like you’ll be doing a long time in jail!

Al: But…

Bob: Constable Walsh, take him away!

Janet: With pleasure, Sergeant Barnett. *to Al* Let’s go!

*As Al is being lead into the police car, Sophie hides under the bush*

Sophie: The reign of terror is over. *sighs*

*Belinda nods*
Natalie: Thank you! *storms over to the kitchen*
Larni: I tell you, Belinda. That brat needs a good smack!
Belinda: Larni!
Larni: Ever since she came here, she’s done nothing but demand things from you! It’s disgusting!
Taylor: Yeah!
Belinda: She’ll be leaving tomorrow so until then we just have to live with her.
*the kids storm off*
Natalie: I want chocolate!
Belinda: No.
*Natalie sulks*
(*In their bedroom, Amy and Larni are bitching about Natalie.*)
Amy: I can't stand the brat!
Larni: Me either.

*Peter races over*
Peter: Why is he dehydrated?
Molly: I’m not sure. He said something about eating bad KFC.
Peter: Molly, did Lois come after him again?
*Molly nods*
Peter: She probably soiled his food.
Kierain: *out of it* You're not gonna stick me with that are you?
Molly: He's out of it, Pete.
*Kierain vomits again*
Peter: I can’t reach Alex.
Molly: Phone Bette.
Peter: She’s away.

Kierain: Matron?
Maggie: Yes love?
Kierain: Did I die?
Maggie: No.
Kierain: I saw a light.
Maggie: That was an out of body experience.
*Maggie lowers the bed rail and picks him up*

*Kierain starts to cry*
Maggie: Love, tell me about Lois. I want to hear everything.
*he does so*
Maggie: I think we better take an exam.
