NOTE: THIS IS MY FIRST SUMMERLAND SORT OF FIC, THIS IS MY OPINION OF WHAT SHOULD HAVE HAPPENED IN SAFE HOUSE AND AFTER THAT, I LIVE IN AUSTRALIA, SO I DIDN’T SEE THAT MANY EPISODES, SO I DON’T KNOW EVERY CHARACTERS FULL STORY, I HOPE I HAVEN’T MADE THEM TO OOC (I CHEATED HERE – I COULDN’T WRITE A FULL LENGTH SCRIP, BUT I HOPE I've INCLUDED A GOOD AMOUNTO OF STUFF)

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN SUMMERLAND, ANY OF THE CHARACTERS OR THE EPISODE TITLE ‘SAFE HOUSE’ IF I DID, IT WOULD STILL BE RUNNING. I ONLY OWN WHATEVER CHARACTERS I INVENT AND STORYLINES I COME UP WITH – THE BORROWED SCENES AT THE END ARE NOT INTENTIONALLY A COPYRIGHT THING, I JUST COULDN’R BARE CUTTING OUT THE BRILLIANT SCENES WITH NIKKI, CAM, JOHNNY AND AVA.

PLEASE REVIEW – IF I DON’T GET AT LEAST ONE REVIEW FROM SOMEONE SAYING THEY LIKE IT, I WON’T CONTINUE, IF I GET ONLY ONE, I WILL CONTINUE WRITING FOR THAT ONE PERSON.
(note - there were asteriks in some areas, but they don't show up - when I get the time I will chnge where they were into bold)

GREG ROBERTSON: ARE YOU SURE? I COULD TALK TO NIKKI – I COULDN’T TELL YOU THE COUNTLESS TIMES I WAS DRAGGED DOWN TO THE COP SHOP BECAUSE A MATES DAD WAS DRUNK, OR HIGH, OR TO BUSY PASSING HIS NEWEST GIRLFRIEND TO KEEP HIS EYES ON THE ROAD

SUZANNAH REXFORD: EXCUSE ME? WE DON’T SPEAK AUSTRALIAN

GREG ROBERTSON: ALL I’M SAYING IS THAT I'VE BEEN TO COUNTLESS POLICE STATIONS BECAUSE OF A FRIENDS DAD – MAYBE I COULD TALK TO NIKKI – HELP HER THROUGH WHATEVER SHE’S FEELING.

NIKKI’S CELL PHONE BEGINS TO RING

NIKKI WESTERLEY: EXCUSE ME.

NIKKI WESTERLEY WATCHES AS GREG LEAVES THE ROOM BEFORE ANSWERING HER PHONE

NIKKI WESTERLEY: CAMERON! WHAT’S UP?

CAMERON BALE: THROUGH PHONE PLEASE DO NOT TELL YOUR ANYONE ABOUT MY DAD, PLEASE!

NIKKI WESTERLEY: CAMERON. CAM, HAS HE DONE ANYTHING TO HURT YOU

KYLE BALE: THROUGH THE NOISE IN THE BACKGROUND CAMERON! WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON THE PHONE SO LATE?

THE PHONE CLICKS OFF AT CAMERON’S END

NIKKI WESTERLEY: CAMERON! CAM!

DOWN IN THE STUDIO, GREG IS TELLING AVA EVERYTHING NIKKI SAID

AVA GREGORY: WAIT ON, SHE SAID IT WASN’T THE POLICE THING SHE’S UPSET ABOUT, IT’S SOMETHING ELSE

GREG ROBERTSON: YEP

AVA GREGORY: WHAT ELSE IS THERE FOR HER TO BE WORRIED ABOUT?

SUZANNAH REXFORD: MAYBE CAMERON’S FORCING HER TO DECIDE ON A CERTAIN THING

AVA GREGORY: SUZANNAH, CAMERON IS A NICE BOY – I DON’T THINK HE’D PRESSURE HER INTO ANYTHING

SUZANNAH REXFORD: HE’S 15, HE’S A GUY, YOU DO THE MATH

BRADIN WESTERLEY: WHAT! HOW’S NIKKI FEELING?

AVA GREGORY: SHE’S UPSET, BUT SHE TOLD GREG IT WASN’T ABOUT THE ARREST, AND I BELIEVE HER – SHE’S BEEN ACTING STRANGLY FOR THE LAST FEW DAY

SUZANNAH REXFORD: AND THE ONLY REASONABLE EXPLANATION WE COULD THINK OF WAS THAT CAMERON’S BEEN PRESSURING NIKKI INTO DOING THINGS SHE’S NOT READY TO DO

BRADIN WESTERLEY: RIGHT, THAT’S IT!

BRADIN STORMS DOWN THE STAIRS

AVA GREGORY: OH, IS THAT IT, CAMERON WASN’T PRESSURING YOU, OR ANYTHING?

NIKKI WESTERLEY: NO! NO! WHERE DID YOU GET THAT IDEA?

AVA GREGORY: LAST NIGHT, IT FELT LIKE IT WAS THE ONLY PLAUSIBLE EXCUSE

BRADIN WESTERLEY WALKS INTO AVA’S STUDIO

AVA GREGORY: WHERE DID YOU GET TO LAST NIGHT?

BRADIN WESTERLEY: NO WHERE IN PARTICULAR

AVA GREGORY: BRADIN...

BRADIN WESTERLEY: OKAY, I WENT TO SPEAK TO CAMERON

NIKKI WESTERLEY: LOOK, I DON’T CARE WHAT HAPPENS, I DON’T CARE WHAT ANYBODY SAYS, CAMERON IS STAYING HERE, WITH US.

THE CAMERA PANS FROM AVA’S FACE DOWN TO CAMERON AND NIKKI’S HANDS, THEY ARE CLASPED TIGHTLEY

NIKKI WESTERLEY: PERIOD.

AVA NODS

LATER ON THAT NIGHT, JOHNNY IS OVER AT AVA’S, THEY ARE SITTING OUT ON THE DECK

AVA GREGORY: HOW COULD SOMEONE DO THAT TO HIS OWN CHILD? THAT’S WHAT I DON’T UNDERSTAND.

JOHNNY NODS, AGREEING

AVA GREGORY: DID YOU SEE CAM? HE’S SO SCARED. I CAN’T BELIEVE KYLE IS DOING THIS

JOHNNY DURANT: I CAN. DRUNKS AREN’T KNOWN FOR THEIR GOOD JUDGEMENT WHEN IT COMES TO PARENTING

AVA GREGORY: WELL, I’M AN IDIOT – I DIDN’T WANT TO BELIEVE KYLE HAD A PROBLEM

JOHNNY DURANT: DON’T BLAME YOURSELF, AVA, YOU CARE ABOUT HIM. YOU WANTED TO BELIEVE IN THE BEST IN HIM. YOU SHOULD HAVE HEARD THE LIES MY MOTHER USED TO TELL

AVA GREGORY: AND YOU BELIEVED HER

JOHNNY DURANT: UNTIL I REALISED I HAD TO STOP HOPING SHE WAS TELLING THE TRUTH, AND LEARN HOW TO LIE

AVA PLACES HER ARM AROUND JOHNNY

AVA GREGORY: I REALLY APREECIATE YOU BEING HERE, I ACTUALLY DON’T KNOW WHAT I WOULD DO IF YOU WEREN’T HERE RIGHT NOW – OKAY, JOHNNY, I WANT YOU TO MOVE BACK IN

JOHNNY DURANT: WHAT?

AVA GREGORY: WELL, I MISS YOU, AND I KNOW HOW HARD IT MUST BE FOR YOU TO BE LIVING AT MONA’S

JOHNNY DURANT: YES

AVA GREGORY: YES, YOU’LL MOVE IN?

JOHNNY DURANT: YES, I’LL MOVE IN

AVA GREGORY: YOU’LL HAVE TO SLEEP ON THE COUCH UNTIL WE SORT THINGS OUT

JOHNNY DURANT: I WOULDN’T HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY.

THE SUN HAS RISEN OVER THE GREGORY HOUSE, EVERYONE HAS GOTTEN ON WITH THEIR DAILY BUSINESS – CAMERON WALKS DOWN THE STAIRS

JOHNNY DURANT: CAMERON

CAMERON BALE: HI.

JOHNNY DURANT: CAN I TALK TO YOU?

CAMERON BALE: YEAH, SURE

JOHNNY DURANT: WELL, LOOK, UH, I JUST WANT TO SAY, I KNOW HOW TOUGH THIS IS FOR YOU. IF IT MEANS ANYTHING, I’VE STOOD IN YOUR SHOES BEFORE

CAMERON BALE: YOUR DAD?

JOHNNY DURANT: MY MOM – I WAS JUST A LITTLE YOUNGER THAN YOU ARE NOW, AND I, UH, I HATED IT TOO.

CAMERON BALE WALKS ALL THE WAY DOWN THE STAIRS AND UP TO JOHNNY

CAMERON BALE: YOUR MOM, DID SHE STOP?

JOHNNY DURANT: EVENTUALLY, AFTER GETTING HELP. IT WASN’T EASY, BUT I HAD TO TELL HER HOW MUCH SHE WAS HURTING ME. HOW MUCH SHE WAS HURTING BOTH OF US

CAMERON BALE: BUT I CAN’T DO THAT, MY DAD’LL HATE ME

TEARS START FORMING IN CAMERON’S EYES

JOHNNY DURANT: CAMERON – CAMERON, HE WILL NOT HATE YOU, HE WON’T HATE YOU

JOHNNY PULLS CAMERON INTO A HUG

JOHNNY DURANT: LISTEN TO ME, ALRIGHT, THE ONE THING I KNOW IS THIS – HE WILL NEVER HATE YOU – I PROMISE.

BRADIN IS SITTING OUTSIDE JAY’S SURF SHOP, HIS CELL PHONE RINGS

BRADIN WESTERLEY: BRADIN SPEAKING

FAITH: HEY, BRADIN – I DON’T THINK I’LL BE ABLE TO MAKE IT TODAY; CAN WE MAKE IT A LATER DAY?

BRADIN WESTERLEY: YEAH, SURE – WHAT’S GOING ON? ANYTHING SERIOUS?

FAITH: NOTHING IMPORTANT, MY PARENTS JUST WANT ME TO CHECK OUT COLLEGES IN THIS AREA

BRADIN WESTERLEY: OH, OKAY – WELL, I’LL CALL YOU TONIGHT

FAITH: I’LL BE LOKING FORWARD TO THAT – BYE

BRADIN WESTERLEY: BYE

BRADIN PRESSES THE ‘END CALL’ BUTTON. HE PLACES THE CELL PHONE BACK IN HIS POCKET BEFORE PULLING OUT A CONTAINER OF PILLS, HE OPENS THE LID AND TAKES ONE, HE CLOSES THE LID AGAIN, THE CAMERA ZOOMS IN ON THE LABEL, IT READS WESTERLEY, BRADIN, AMOXILIN TOUGH, STRONG PAIN RELIEF

BACK AT THE GREGORY HOUSE, JOHNNY, SUZANNAH AND AVA ARE SITTING TOGETHER, THEY HERE THE DOOR OPEN AND KYLE BALE WALKS UP THE STAIRS AND CONFRONTS THEM

KYLE BALE: WHERE’S MY SON?

AVA GREGORY: LIKE I TOLD YOU LAST NIGHT, HE’S STAYING WITH US UNTIL YOU GET THE HELP YOU NEED

KYLE BALE: I DON’T NEED HELP – ALL I NEED IS MY SON

SUZANNAH REXFORD: KYLE, IF YOU DON’T GET HELP, YOU COULD KILL CAMERON, AND THEN YOU WOULDN’T HAVE HIM AT ALL, AND WE’RE NOT GOING TO LET THAT HAPPEN, JUST PLEASE, GET HELP FOR YOUR PROBLEM

KYLE BALE: MY ONLY PROBLEMS ARE MY EX-WIFE AND HER NEW HUSBAND CONTESTING CUSTODY AND THE BANK TAKING MY HOUSE – THOSE ARE THE REASONS I DRINK

JOHNNY DURANT: YOU JUST CAN’T USE THOSE EXCUSES FOREVER, ONE DAY, YOU’LL RUN OUT OF EXCUSES, AND THEN IT’LL BE UP TO CAMERON TO LIE FOR YOU. KYLE, A PLACE HAS BEEN BOOKED FOR YOU AT ONE OF SUMMERLAND’S BEST REHAB CENRTES, SO PLEASE KYLE, DO IT FOR YOUR SON

CAMERON AND NIKKI WALK DOWN THE STAIRS AND COME FACE TO FACE WITH KYLE, CAMERON’S BRUISE LOOKING BAD

KYLE BALE: COME ON CAMERON, WE’RE GOING

CAMERON BALE: NO DAD, I’M NOT GOING UNTIL YOU GET HELP

KYLE BALE: COME ON CAMERON, LET’S GET OUT OF HERE

CAMERON BALE: PLEASE DAD, GET SOME HELP

KYLE BALE STARTS WALKING OUT OF THE HOUSE

JOHHNY DURANT: LOOK AT YOUR SON, KYLE! LOOK AT HIM, HE IS PRACTICALLY BEGGING YOU TO GET HELP, HE JUST WANT’S HIS DAD BACK

KYLE BALE: CAMERON, ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT ME TO GET THE HELP? IF YOU DO, I WILL

CAMERON BALE: YES, I DO. PLEASE DAD, I HATE SEEING YOU DRUNK, I HATE HAVING TO LIE TO PEOPLE ALL THE TIME, PLEASE DAD

KYLE BALE: FINE, BUT AVA, I WANT YOU TO LOOK AFTER CAM WHILE I’M AWAY

AVA GREGORY: OF COURSE I WILL KYLE, YOU KNOW I WILL.

JOHHNY DURANT: COME ON, I’LL HELP YOU GET READY

JOHNNY PICKS UP HIS KEYS AND WALKS WITH KYLE TO THE DOOR, CAMERON HUGS HIS FATHER, TEARS STREAKING DOWN HIS FACE

LATER THAT EVENING, CAMERON IS SITTING OUT ON THE SWING, NIKKI WALKS OUT AND SITSDOWN NEXT TO HIM, SHE PUTS HER ARM AROUND HIS SHOUDLER, THEY KISS AS JOHNNY AND AVA LOOK ON

Fade to black – roll credits

NEXT TIME ON SUMMERLAND: (ALL ORIGINAL WRITING!) THE REASON BRADIN LEFT THE SURFING TOUR IS REVEALED, GREG AND TOMMY’S SECRET IS ALSO REVEALED, CAMERON, NIKKI, AVA AND JOHNNY DEAL WITH THE AFTERMATH OF THE KYLE INCEDENT, AND COMING SOON – A MAJOR EVENT THAT WILL ROCK SUMMERLAND TO ITS CORE.

OH, AND WILL SOMEONE PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS FOR ME: DID MONA DIE? IF SHE DID, HOW DID IT HAPPEN? WHAT HAPPENED TO AMBER?
