What the hell is happening? We've got to get out here.
Well, shouldn't we wait for the police? The police are already here.
But they can't all be bad? What, do you want to wait and find out? (SIRENS WAIL IN DISTANCE) How much? We have to get out of here.
No.
Please, stay.
Chelsea, I don't know what's going on, I don't know who's coming but we have to leave now.
See you, Chelsea.
Hey.
Hey.
I thought you couldn't drive.
Well, you sustained a head injury today so I should probably drive.
No offence, but you're a shitful driver.
(STARTS ENGINE) Why don't we just go to a police station? We just we just need to get somewhere and stop and think, OK? Well, is there somebody else we could call, like your husband? Nah.
What about you? Have you got a boyfriend? Big, scary type with a gun? No, not really.
Family? My father lives in Shanghai and my mother's dead.
Sorry.
Oh, God! Oh, God, no.
What? I'm being audited today.
They'll think I didn't come to work because I'm guilty.
Well, Chelsea, we just need to get somewhere safe, OK? Do you know of anywhere? Um Well, my father still has a holiday house up in the mountains and nobody ever goes there.
Well, how far is it? Um Well, at this hour, as long as there's no traffic in Highbury and we get a clear run up the A30, we should be there in an hour and 23 minutes.
Yeah.
Righto.
G'day, buddy.
How are you? Bit of trouble down at the bus stop earlier.
You know anything about that? That's a nice umbrella.
Where'd you get it? Er er someone gave it to me.
What's your name? Kenny.
Kenny.
Well, don't lie to me, Kenny.
You picked this up at the bus stop.
Where's the handbag? LOLA: We had no choice back there, OK? People are dead and they're going to think that we're responsible.
Well, we're not.
They'll work that out soon enough.
Hey, Chelsea, just I know it's tough.
You're just going to have to calm down, alright? (LAUGHS) Calm down? Well, I'm sorry I'm not as free-spirited as you.
Just how am I free-spirited? Well, for starters, you're often late for the bus - at least twice a week.
What? Wow, I didn't realise I was being monitored.
Oh, I'm just observant.
We have caught the same bus for 18 months.
I'm sure you must have noticed things about me.
Oh, sure.
Yeah.
What? You have anxiety issues.
That's not true.
Yeah, it is.
You always look like a deer in headlights, like you're waiting for something terrible to happen.
Well, it did.
OK, that emergency call from the woman, we couldn't trace it or track it.
We couldn't identify the number.
You there? Yeah, yeah.
And there's a body here.
James Ryder.
He's an ex-cop.
You remember he had those corruption charges against him a few years back? His car's dressed up with dash lights.
It looks like he's fired off a shot.
Anybody else there? Hey? Anyone No.
Um, but I've got to tell you, a cop and Victor Maric found dead together and now this? I'll run those plates and get them to send me an audio file of the emergency call.
I'll take care of it.
Sir? I said I'll take care of it! OK.
Well, should I (CALL DISCONNECTS) LOLA: It's beautiful up here.
Hm? Yeah.
So, what did you mean when you said you have a boyfriend, not really? Was that, like, a Tinder thing? Oh! Tinder? As if.
(SIGHS) Well, do you want to call your 'not boyfriend'? No.
(PHONE VIBRATES) Righto.
Don't answer.
Don't answer it.
I'm not.
I didn't.
No, don't chuck it out! Just turn it off.
We might need it.
For emergencies only, OK? (COMPUTER CHIMES) Gotcha.
(STARTS ENGINE) LOLA: Wow.
That's a holiday house? No, that's the guesthouse.
What? (BURPS) Ooh, sorry.
Did you want one? You've got blood.
Maybe you should have a shower.
There's one down the hall.
I'll just I'll get you one of my father's shirts.
Here.
Um, it's just off to the right, off the main bedroom.
Hey, Chelsea, it's going to be OK.
If we just stay here tonight we can call someone tomorrow and get some help, yeah? SONG: Take something beautiful And go and smash it Take something perfect and pervert it Take something young and proud And then shame it (SIGHS) (GASPS) G'day, Lola.
Where's the money? It's in the car.
Wrong.
I've already checked, so let's try it again.
Where is the money.
I told you, it's in the back seat of the car, in a bag.
Where's your friend? She's gone.
Let's go and have a chat with her, shall we? OK.
Who are you working for? Anton Maric? Dale at Lane Mart.
Call your friend, get her now.
No.
(BANG!) Back, back, back.
Move, move, move! I can't Not much of a friend, is she? Anton Maric isn't gonna like this.
Who are you? I can take you to the money.
It's back this way.
(AEROSOL HISSES) Aarggh! Aarggh! (SHRIEKS) Where's the money? Oh, I hid it.
You should never leave money in a car.
No, wait, wait.
We should leave it - that's what he wants.
No, Chelsea, we're not leaving it.
How did he find us? The phone.
Where's the phone? Oh.
SONG: My mama said Where are we going? Away.
To where? I don't know yet.
There's much weight you will lift Do you want me to drive? Leave those bad boys alone What do you think? And my mama said Yeah, fair enough.
You can be big or small But I'm always on the run Always on the run But I'm always on the run.
