Sisters is a heartwarming Australian drama series that follows the lives of three adult sisters who are brought together after the death of their father. The first episode of season one, Moving In, Moving Out, Moving On, kicks off with the aftermath of their father's funeral.

The three sisters - Julia, Roxy, and Edie - are not particularly close due to their vastly different personalities and lifestyles. However, they are all forced to come together as they are left to divide their father's estate and deal with his affairs.

Julia, the eldest sister, is a successful lawyer who is married to her job. She is not keen on the idea of sharing her father's beach house with her younger sisters and would rather sell it off to fund her own ambitions. Roxy, the middle sister, is a free-spirited musician who lives a nomadic lifestyle. She is struggling financially and sees the beach house as an opportunity to get her life back on track. Edie, the youngest sister, recently separated from her husband and has brought her two young children with her to stay at the beach house. She is in an emotional and financial crisis and relies on her sisters' support.

The episode focuses on the sisters as they move in and start to deal with their father's belongings. Tensions quickly rise as they argue over who should get what. Julia wants to sell everything, Roxy wants to keep some sentimental items, and Edie struggles to make any decisions at all. Their disagreements escalate when Julia discovers that their father had left a significant amount of debt and that they are now responsible for paying it off.

As the sisters try to figure out how to manage their father's affairs, they start to unpack their own personal issues. Julia's workaholic tendencies are revealed to have contributed to the breakdown of her marriage. Roxy's carefree attitude comes across as irresponsible and unreliable to her sisters. Edie is struggling with her separation and her role as a single mother.

Throughout the episode, the sisters come to realize that they need each other more than ever. They start to bond over shared memories and childhood stories. Roxy takes charge by organizing a beach party to celebrate their father's life. Julia starts to soften and realizes the importance of family. Edie reassures her sisters that they will figure it all out together.

At the end of the episode, the sisters make a bold decision to keep the beach house and rent it out to tourists to help pay off their father's debts. They realize that by holding onto the house, they can create their own memories and continue to bond as a family. The first episode closes with the sisters, silly and laughing, heading to the beach for the first time together in years.

Moving In, Moving Out, Moving On sets the tone for the rest of the season, which explores the sisters' relationships with each other and the challenges they face as they navigate adulthood. It's a heartwarming story of family, love, and the importance of sticking together through thick and thin.
