- Yes, we have.

We went from having nothing

to having too much.

And now we can barely breathe.

Like, do we need

that many boxes of cereal?

How many of those

do you reckon are stale?

And can't be eaten anyway.

None of them are, actually.

I just want you to start listening to me

and doing something.

And I'll help you. I've said that.

Will you start listening to me?

I've tried listening to you, Mum.

Kacie, will you start listening to me

when I say I need you to pay for your car,

I need you to pay rent?

Yes.

- Will you?

- Yes.

Because you don't.

You're quick to attack me.

I'm not attacking you.

I want to help you.

It's not doing any of you

any good living like this.

It feels like a parallel universe,

before he died.

This sounds pathetic,

but we didn't have furniture.

And the walls were all the same color.

He didn't like clutter

and he didn't like

things being in the house.

So he boxed everything up

and put them in containers.

It was all kind of sentimental.

The containers have gone.

Big empty space.

Oh, my God. Looks about...

Looks really weird, you know.

Feels weird.

Dad, can you tell us how you feel?

Dad, tell us how you feel.

I feel you have to accept things

like this... Um...

And it's time to move to a different

chapter and get the barns organized.

Very, very well said.

There's the barns.

When he died,

all the boxes got dropped off here again.

I am now gonna ask

three of my sisters

to perform a show.

They are each gonna do something

different, but it is gonna be funny.

Please welcome, Mirie Shanks.

She's going to do

her famous dancing.

I have an idea that we can maybe

promote everything that you do

on my YouTube channel.

In that case, you can make

a piece of clothing and I can wear it.

I said to Nikita and Pippa,

maybe all three of us could find a tune...

There's a song that

all three of us have written.

And I'm really bad at writing, so...

'Cause I'd be just be thinking

of the song. I wouldn't be writing.

Your father used to write, um...

He used to play the guitar...

and find something

he liked the sound of, musically.

And then write words to it

and then do a bit more.

So he would sort of piece them together

as he went along.

I'm not very good at writing.

I just always say the same thing.

So that's why I asked Nikita

and Pippa to help me.

There's power in being together.

This is why I keep telling you

to develop an act as a group.

I'd rather be by myself.

Be on my own and then do, maybe,

a few great pieces to put on it.

Okay. I just think you've all got more...

a greater chance of success together.

So you don't think we could all make it

on our own?
