In 2009 executive producer Adam Macaulay suggested that the interns pitch a daily 5 minute soap opera style drama.

Johno Anderson happens to be biking past at this time and waits by her side after calling emergency services.

Meanwhile, Johno's technology savvy friend (Terry) finds Alice's Vlog online along with a message to her 'saviour' to meet her at the market where her mother works.

Along the way, Johno is tempted by an older woman, Alice's estranged father (Dave) turns up sick, Jarrod and Lucille hook up, The Boy's band plays some gigs and there is a house fire.

The season ends with Johno deciding to go overseas to find himself and Alice unsure whether or not to join him.

Alice tells everyone the good news (after drinking with Joel all day) at the naming ceremony for her houseboat.

Season One was written by the 2008 graduates of the acting course Toi Whakaari Esther-Rose Green, Paul Gordon Harrop, Sara Allen and Asher Smith as contracted by All The Way Home Productions with Adam Macaulay (RNZ Drama Dept Exec Prod) as script supervisor.

Season Two added 2010 graduate of the acting course Toi Whakaari Simon Leary to the writing team.
