Episode 4

Mum, this is, um .
.
this is Kelly.
I'm not doing this.
OK? I can live with Gran or Koz.
There's heaps of people I can stay with here.
No, you can't.
Why? Why should I have to? I didn't do anything! Is it Gary? Garys, with an 's'.
Come on, come make friends, Tara Swift.
Aaargh! What is going on? You stole the phone, the one you got for my birthday, Dad.
You stole it.
You are such a hypocrite.
Ah, Maree.
I think it's happening.
Dim, you're weeks out.
Where's Koz? Sleeping.
Ah, your brother.
He'd sleep through anything.
Open the door! Mum! Koz got you stabbed.
He paid for the hit.
Prove it.
He made a big cash withdrawal two days before the stabbing.
So? So, I'm telling you - No, no! Psychology 101, Pinder.
You - no.
No.
Straight through? Nils? Where are we headed? To the morgue.
We're going down the morgue, tell' em you're dead, they're gonna put you in a freezer box.
Where are we really going? Dagarville Rd.
You know it.
Koz.
What are you doing? I told you.
We gotta reclaim some merchandise from the boy-bitch who stole it.
Eyes on the road.
Toop! Just tell him where the stuff is and we'll leave you alone! I will use this happily.
Koz! Hey.
I will do it.
Three, two - Wait! You're not even supposed to be here! What? I told 'em you weren't here! Who? Who'd ya tell? Whom.
It should be whom in that instance.
I think he's right.
You alright? Yeah.
I just had a bad dream.
I'm gonna call my brother.
I need to find out what's happening with the baby.
You can't, no.
No, you can't.
Dim's due any minute, I'm gonna be an aunty.
I get that.
So I should be there.
I have to be there, I'm the one that looked after her.
I'm the one that put up with all of her stupid phone calls at 3:00, 4:00 in the morning - 'Am I OK? Am I in labour? Am I eating ice, pickles, lemons, chocolates? Well, guess what! I'm awake now and I'm ready to talk.
' Yeah, baby, you need to calm down.
No.
I don't! I've BEEN calm.
It's gotten me nowhere! OK, but everything is OK! We're OK.
Oh, you might be OK, babe, you might enjoy living in some random dude's house, I don't.
I'm the one that's gotta clean up after him when he's been sick or if he's peed all over the bathroom.
I'm the one that's gotta spend all day with him when he gets rat-face drunk and screams at Submarine Family.
What, the TV show? He's got the DVD.
He's obsessed.
I miss my family.
I'm gonna hassle Pinder.
Maybe he - maybe he can call Dim, I don't know.
And, yeah, he's gonna say, 'Hi, you don't know me, I'm a federal agent, I'm just checking on your pregnancy.
By the way, I know where Troy is, just press #10 for details.
I want one little phone call.
It doesn't work like that! Why not? Dim's not the one that we're hiding from.
We're in the witness program.
You can't just pick and choose, Bec.
Let me talk to Pinder.
Tara, Mitch, breakfast! PS, I robbed you piggy bank, $106.
I'll pay you back one day.
And the White Russian's tee.
It's for you.
eBay or whatevs.
It's genuine.
It's worth money.
and that's extreme emerg only.
Bye.
Chess club? You're joking, right? No, for reals.
Since when does Mitch play chess? I just think he wants to fit in and find friends, you know.
Hmm.
Right.
Well, that's good, I guess.
Better get your skates on.
Oh, look, it's outrageous! You can't just come and go at your - whoa! Looks like sick.
Welcome to Warwick.
Your turn.
He's not even up yet.
He comes down, middle of the night, and crashes around while you snore.
I'm confiscating all the booze.
Good luck with that.
Tara, you knew Mitchell was going early.
Now, we've spoken about this.
Any changes to the routine .
.
we flag it.
In advance.
Dad, he's just gone to school.
No, no.
He just went outside normal security arrangements.
What? Are you listening to yourself? You sound mental? Oh, Dad, you're spilling it! OK.
Oh! Argh! Sorry.
OK, OK.
Mitchell should have said something.
Yeah, well, there's no use crying about it.
Not funny.
So, chess? Yeah.
There's a big group at school.
It's sorta cool to be geek.
Mitch isn't a geek.
Betcha there's a girl.
Too loud, people.
You shatter my eardrums! Morning, Wokka.
Is it? Is it really? Did ya have a big night, did ya? Oh, I don't know.
I don't remember.
Where's Bec? I'm not here, I've escaped.
Ah, Bec.
Hey, come here.
I've got something to ask ya.
Simple.
Come here.
Come here.
Hey.
I could be talked into an omelette.
Wokka.
You could make it yourself, yeah? You're not an invalid.
Yeah, you could start paying rent, yeah? 'Cause, you know, you could.
Spanish omelette.
Lucky I didn't crack an egg on his head.
You going out? I'm going to look for a job.
What? We're broke, we need money.
There's a dead carrot in the fridge.
We've got enough complications.
Well, we're stuck here now.
Stuck here for God knows how long.
I've got a job.
I mean, not really, but we are getting some money.
That's alright then, babe - you go off to work.
I'll sit here and wait to be murdered, yeah? I'll just sit here with Warwick.
I was thinking maybe we could go to the beach or something.
On the weekend.
Where? I don't know, there's Bondi, Maroubra.
It's winter.
It was just an idea.
Maybe we could do something else.
Yeah, maybe we could go shoplifting as a family.
Shaneen.
Tara! And it was just an idea.
OK.
Forget it.
Thanks, bye.
Tara.
Come back here! Tara! OK, OK.
You get Mitch to call me.
This morning.
I want to speak to him.
He doesn't have a phone and - side note - neither do I now.
There's public phones.
Or borrow one - ask Miss Banwood.
Barker.
Her name is Miss Barker.
OK.
I'll do it myself.
There's someone here that must know where he is.
Dad, Dad! Stop, stop! You're being insane.
I wanna speak to my son.
You're being insane.
OK? I promise I'll talk to him.
Just please don't make a scene.
You get him to call me.
Yes, I will.
OK, just please just go away.
Tara Swift.
Prize fighter.
Don't hit me.
What do you want? I'm having a gathering at my house.
I want you to come.
What's next, waterboarding? Maybe.
It's a genuine invitation.
It's tonight.
I punched up your friend.
I know.
Kind of turned me on a little bit.
Is that weird? You play chess? Sure.
I can't wait for Tuesday.
Attention, Flight TP387 to the Gold Coast has been delayed.
That is Flight TP387 to the Gold Coast has been delayed.
Please stand by for boarding instructions.
Hey.
Well, I think we have to abort the mission.
What? By the time we get there, it'll be time to come back.
But we got tickets.
I'll get a refund and we can go to Bondi or something.
Bondi is not a beach, man.
OK? It's full of wankers.
The only real beaches are on the Goldy.
You said you've never been there.
It's the Gold Coast, it's awesome.
Everybody knows that.
Man, I can't tell if you're being ironic or not.
There's people up there that can help us with accommodation, food, whatevs.
We're going for a day.
Yeah, well, maybe I might stay - forever.
.
.
Flight TP387 to the Gold Coast.
We've narrowed it down to four.
They were all there with you in remand.
Burfield, Hatzis, Gazal and Stoltz.
One of these is the man who stabbed you.
What's with the head brace? That's Danny Stoltz.
You recognise him? I don't know.
I didn't see.
We could charge him with attempted murder, but we'd need you to ID him and testify in Queensland.
No, thanks.
No, he's not the guy? No, I'm not going to Queensland.
It was a blur.
He's familiar.
I met him through Nils, I think.
He doesn't show up in any of Nils' phone records.
But .
.
he is .
.
friendly with your other good mate.
It wasn't Koz who got me stabbed.
I've gone over it a million times in my head.
Koz wouldn't.
Not to me.
No, 'cause you're his mate.
Yeah I am, actually.
And that'd never happen, a mate betraying a mate.
I'd know.
Koz is not a killer.
Doesn't take a lot of courage.
If you pay cash.
No.
Nah.
Don't believe it.
All this is Nils.
Nils or someone.
Or you.
Me? This is all done with Photoshop? I assume you're across Photoshop now you're an academic? OK, I'm gonna make a phone call.
Nah, not now.
We're working.
No! How about no! No more today! Lincoln? What the fuck are you looking at? This is never gonna end, is it? We'll never have a normal life again until Nils is gone.
Lincoln - We'll be stuck in this cycle of hiding and begging and crawling and - What we do is we work slow, methodical.
We make the case - No! We'll just - Screw that! I'm gonna take out Nils myself.
It's the only way this will end.
You're gonna kill Nils V? Alright.
Listen, don't be stupid.
Have yourself a coffee - no, actually, no caffeine for you.
Have a cookie, a nice muesli- I don't want it! They're apparently delicious - Shove it up your arse.
Oh, that's lovely.
That's really nice.
John.
Hey, Ferdine.
Hey.
How's it coming along? Good.
Yeah.
Yeah, really good.
And you sat in on Isaac's lecture.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Intense.
Hi.
Hello, how're you going? Good, thank you.
I just wanted to hand in my CV.

I'm sorry, we're not actually hiring at the moment.
OK.
But thanks.
Hi.
Hey.
Sorry.
That's fine.
Thanks.
Hi, how are you? Just wanted to hand my CV in.
Not quite what we're looking for.
Thanks.
Thanks.
I've worked in a couple of different places.
Perth Royal? Yes.
Great.
We're always looking for good people, so I just need to see a CV.
Yeah, um, ah .
.
I've had a little bit of difficulty accessing my records.
That's not a drama.
Look, I can give them a ring right now.
Employment records.
Who's the best person to speak to? Ah, it's complicated.
I didn't, um Gold Coast Private.

Ash Adamo? He's here now.
He's working with us.
Yeah, I heard a rumour.
Ash is great.
He's awesome.
Hi, it's me.
Have you got a minute? Ah, no, you know what? I'll email everything to you, 'cause I've really got to get going.
No, if you can just wait for two seconds -No, it's fine.
I'll email you.

Hey.
Hi, Ash.
Um, Maree? Oh, um, yeah, I .

I'm sorry I can't stay.
I have to go, sorry.
Maree! Coast of Gold.
The paradise of surfers.
Just take the next left up here.
What? Where are we? We've headed away from the beach.
Yeah, we're cool, OK? We'll get there in two secs.
Hey, here's your stop.
Just stop.
Stop.
Stop.
What are you doing? Yeah, I'll be one minute.
It's the fifth anniversary release.
A bit flabby to start with, but plenty on the follow through.
Is it expensive? You can get a four-gallon bag for ten bucks.
Rebecca Swift's telephone.
No, I have no idea what you're talking about.
Bye bye.
No, what? I Hello? Who was it? Something to do with a medical certificate.
I hate medical people.
It's probably the wrong number, so come back to bed, darling.
The school There's no chess club meeting.
He hasn't been there at all, all day.
Well, he's just he's gone to the beach or something.
I can't find his swimmers anywhere.
Well, has he said anything to you about anything? Like what? I don't know.
About being upset.
Is that a joke? What? Serious? You are scratching for reasons why our son might be upset? No.
I mean, apart from what's happened.
Apart from it? How do you ever get apart from it? Are you a moron? Look, I'm going to the school now.
I'll pick up Tara.
What why? She may know something.
Plus I'm not leaving her there on her own.
But you're just gonna freak her out.
Yeah, well, I can't help that.
You think something's happened.
No, I didn't say that.
OK? Look, I'm on my way, alright? My grandmother's sick? That's like the world's most obvious lie.
That was all I had.
I don't think Ms Barker believed you.
The car's this way.
Come on.
Dad, I was meant to go to Elicia's house tonight.
Yeah, well some other time! We are gonna hang close until I know where he is.
OK.
He didn't say anything to you? The most likely place is where, Bondi? Would he head to the beach? Cronulla.
Maybe.
We talked about Cronulla.
I could go and look around.
Do you think? Yeah, well, it's better than sitting around here not knowing.
I'll get my keys.
Knock, knock.
Tara, have you seen .
.
my phone? What are you doing? Nothing.
Nothing.
Surfers! He goes back and you don't say a word? I don't know for certain, OK? Why didn't you say something? Because I don't know - 'cause you always said never dob on people and never tell tales - you told us a million times.
But I guess you've changed your mind on that.
Hey! Who is Gary and how do we find him? It's Garys.
He's friends with Mitchell.
He wasn't at school either.
Well, Gary must have a phone.
It's Garys with an 'S'.
Look, I'll just call Elicia.
Elicia's friends with Gary? Garys? She knows everything about everyone.
Just I'll need your phone.
Stay inside! Again, I say, this is not the beach.
We're close, OK? We're real close, I just wanna see someone.
Who? Oi! Oi, kid! Garys, ask this kid if he knows Kelly Delicious.
What? Ah Kelly Deluca.
Ask him.
Ask him! Hey, kid.
Come here.
Arsehole! Who's Kelly? She's a friend.
I need to find her.
Hang on.
You came all this way to look for a girl? Well, yeah.
You didn't tell me? Tell you what? What diff does it make? I'm going.
No, Garys, just wait two minutes.
Nah, you go find your girlfriend.
What the hell is wrong with you? I don't know, I just I thought you and me You think we were on a date? What, you gay or something? Huh? Oh, you're kidding me.
I'm gonna go.
Ahh, Garys, just - Hey, hey, hey.
Just hang on, hang on, hang on.

Tell me the truth.
You're in Queensland.

Mitch? You come home now! Yeah, I'll come home.
I'll come home later.
Now! You get on the first plane - I can't.
I can't.
I can't do that, OK? It's like - I'm not asking you, OK? I am telling you.
Mitch.
Mitch! Um, honey, please.
You're not safe there.
Oh, we're not safe anywhere, are we? And I - I hate Sydney, OK? And I'm not coming back! Can you switch it off? I am.
Mitchell? Mitch? Mitchell? Mitchell! What was that? Doesn't matter.
Don't worry.
Doesn't matter? You were just all like, 'Ah, I'm not coming home', to your parents? I mean, they're gonna call the cops and then the school - Oh! They're gonna call my parents.
No, they're not gonna do that.
Sun, surf, sex - that was the pitch.
Maybe slightly different interpretations of sex, but a day on the beach, away from the shit.
Not tooling around the gates of Bogan High chasing after some girl OK, OK.
There's some stuff about me you don't know.
Yeah, ditto.
Vice versa.
I don't want you to go there.
It's the last place they'd be looking for me.
Well, shouldn't we tell Pinder? Then he tells all the cops in Queensland.
I'll find him.
At least call Koz.
He can help.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'll call when I'm there.
Oh, hang on, hang on, hang on.
Take this with you.

It's me again.

Something to drink.

Well, your bloke's dead.
He got shot in the balls.
See I know that, 'cause I saw it on the TV news.
Chisel got himself killed.
Snuck out to see his girlfriend, his horrendously unattractive, angry, pot-head girlfriend.
Nice.

You can't say a word! What happened? I can't talk about it.
You Is that her? She's hot.
Shut up.
Who's the dude? He's hot too.
Shut up! Say something.
Tara? Have you got a minute? I want to talk to you about Mitchell.
What about him? I need you to tell me everything about your brother.
Things he might have told you over the past few weeks.
Little details, even things that might have seemed unimportant at the time.
You can talk to me.
Honestly.
And it won't go outside this room.
OK.
And you can do the same for me.
You can tell me everything about my dad.
Do you want to go first? So somebody killed someone for you to be in witness protection.
You saw somebody murdered? You or your mum.
Your dad's in the mafia? Am I right? I can't talk about it.
Well, I need to know.
I mean, if somebody wants you dead or kidnapped, then I need to not be near you.
Mitch! OK, I'm turning on my phone and I'm going to search the interwebs.
Oh, fuck a duck! Kell, hey! Hey! What are YOU doing here? Come on, let's go.
Come on, drive, drive! Where? I don't know, around the block.
Just go, just go.
Come on! I can't.
I'm with a friend.
Just one minute, one minute.
That's all we need.
Come on.
Come on, Kell.
Alright, shove over, Kell.
Go, go.
Kell, move over.
Move! Hello? This is Lincoln, Mitch's father.
Ah, Mitch isn't here right now.
Tell me exactly where you are.
Ah, OK, Kelly, OK! I can explain everything.
My dad got busted.
And stuff happened.
We got moved away.
Where? They put us in witness protection, OK? Said we couldn't tell anyone.
They took our phones, computers, everything.
They said no calls.
Ow! OK, Kelly, can you not! Please! Not one phone call? You didn't even try? I just told you we weren't allowed.
Oh, and you always do what you're told.
I had to! It's like my dad could get killed.
How? Just by you calling me? That's ridiculous! They could trace the call.
You don't understand.
No, I don't.
These people .
.
hardcore - they want .
.
my dad.
So what are you doing here then? What do you think? I couldn't stand it anymore.
I just I came here to see you.
Really? Well, I just wouldn't do that to you.
I would have called you if it was me.
You missed my sister's birthday! What? I didn't even know - Yeah, exactly.
I don't know where he's gone.
I don't know anything.
Like I said, he just drove off.
Get in the car.
I'm sorry, I'm not getting in the car - with you.
It's like he's conducting a tour of phone towers in Surfers Paradise.
Right back in the hot zone.
Way to go, Lincoln.
We got anyone nearby? Holdforth's in Brisbane.
You gonna make that call? Not yet.
Doesn't matter what we do, they bugger it up themselves every time.
I can't talk right now - Ditch the phone, you hear me? Get rid of it.
I can't do that.
Look, I know where you are.
If Mitch calls in, we'll track it.
No, if he calls, I wanna answer.
Lincoln, it will get you killed.
Just throw it out the window.
Yeah, OK.
Alright.
You have to believe me.
I wanted to call you.
I never stopped wanting to - Yeah, look, this is crazy.
I'm so, like, I can't even think.
So who's your friend? Huh? Your friend.
The guy you were with.
Jarred? He's just a friend.
You know what today is? No.
Just our anniversary.
Mitch! Argh! No! No way, Dad! No, let me out! Shhh! It's OK.
It's OK.
Stop the car, Dad! Mitch! Dad - You can't be here! Just stop the - I swear to God, Dad! What are you - stop it! Dad, stop the car! Mitch, you can't be here! Stop the car, Dad! Stop it! Mitch, you can't stay here! Why? I'm not the one they're after.
Mitch, stop! Mitch, stop! Just - I just wanna talk.
You can't How would you live? What would you do? I don't know, I'd get a job.
Doing what? What are you, my fucking careers advisor? I was younger than you when I had to leave home.
So you should understand then.
It was the worst! I didn't want to leave.
I shouldn't have had to.
I was forced out.
I got forced out of here to go to Sydney with you.
I shouldn't have to do that.
I am sorry, Mitchell! I didn't plan this.
So don't make me go back.
Son .
.
they will find you.
Sooner or later.
I don't care.
And they will - I wouldn't tell 'em anything.
I wouldn't.
If I go back with you, it's over for me.
My life turns to shit.
We don't have a choice.
I want one night with her.
A motel room.
Huh? Me and Kelly, on our own.
You're kidding.
One night.
No, Mitchell, we have to get out of here.
Take it or leave it - or I'm not going.
You wrecked my life.
You owe me.
One hour.
Two.
One hour.
Two hours.
Two hours.
And you leave us alone.
It's number five, which is just out the door there.
Go to the left, alright and then - Yeah, I got it.
Ah, your breakfast card's in the door.
We should talk first.
About What? Oh, for God's sake! Use protection.
Dad! One hour.
I got him.
It's OK.
Oh, my God! Is he alright? Yeah, yeah.
We're coming home.
Did you see Dim? Koz? No, they weren't home.
Yeah, I gotta go.
I'll call you.
Love you.
Mate.
You coming in? Beer? Vodka? Champagne? No, I'm fine.
You're not going to have a drink with me after all this time? OK, I'll have a beer.
I should think so.
I don't see you forever and you turn up outside my house? Hey? Cheers.
To your good health.
How is your health? I'm alright.
You? I'm awesome.
Yeah? But I'm not the one who disappeared out of sight.
You're not the one who got stabbed, either.
True that.
Did you ever figure out who did it to you? Danny Stoltz? Nathan Burfield? I don't know.
One of them.
I just don't know WHY.
I thought you might know.
You think it might have been Nils? Maybe.
See, I wasn't sure at the time.
I couldn't speak to you 'cause you were at the hospital and then suddenly you vanish.
How's Dimity? Huh? Dimity.
Oh, man, any day now.
How scary is that? Since when did you get scared? I know, right? After everything we've done.
I just hope we can have kids half as good as your two.
How are they? They're good.
How's Mitchy? My main man.
And you know, what the fuck? Where are you living? We're around.
Here and there, you know? Mate, I don't know where you live, what you do, who you talk to.
You're gonna shoot me? All by yourself? You paid them, didn't you? No! Danny Stoltz and Nathan fuckin' Burfield.
It was Nils! Mitch! His name is Mitchell.
Troy! Oh, my God! Oh, my God.
Oh, my God! Oh, my God! Koz! Koz! Mitch, we've gotta go.
Quick! Yeah, one minute.
Now, Mitch! We don't have a minute.
Mitch! Alright! Alright, OK.
Just Mr Quigg, are you OK? I'm fine.
You went home and not a word.
We really didn't have time to take out the banana chairs.
Your brother-in-law is out there, saying God knows what to God knows who.
I'm onto it.
I'm taking steps.
Don't make me hurt ya.
Danny Stoltz - one of the men who attacked you in prison - he's escaped.
Maree.
Rebecca has returned.
I heard that Troy got into some trouble.
We split.
Don't worry about me.
I'm going out.
Who with? Just me.
Hey.
Come in.
I think I saw him following me.
Where? Everywhere.
At my house this morning.
Look, if he'd found you, you'd be dead.
I'm gonna find him first.
