Sean and Mitchell are young adult brothers, having grown up in the rugged Australian steel city town of Newcastle.
Mitchell confesses his love for her and she thinks Sean has left, so they end up getting drunk together and having a one-night stand.
Sean returns to Newcastle and tries to pick up where he left off with Linda, only to be told that she is pregnant with Mitchell's child.
He breaks ties with both Linda and Mitchell, creates his own dance troupe and plans to show the people of Newcastle what they can do.
Sean, depressed over the death of his brother and that he was unforgiving, thinks about quitting until he finds a tool that Mitchell designed, solving a technical problem with the show.
Sean realises his dream of being a respected dancer, reconciles with Linda and pledges to help take care of his brother's child.
