Darby and Joan (2022) s01e05 Episode Script

1
Just take your shirt off.
Ooh, are we a little coy?
You're not really available, are you?
- Goodnight.
- Goodnight.
[BRAD] Sometimes you do
things, and you realize
You're not who thought you were.
You humiliated me in front
of everyone I care about.
[JACK] I am sorry.
Truly. That's what I came here for.
It's a Land Cruiser. You can't miss it.
It's the one on its roof.
Now just get the thing,
will you, and just tow it
to that address I gave
you in Sunny Hills.
Darby.
Like the Detective Inspector.
Common name.
I see, not a father-daughter
call on Christmas Eve.
- Come on, Lizzie.
- Detective Inspector.
[JACK] I rang my daughter, Liz.
I asked her about Ian.
What did you find?
He's wanted for murder.
[INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC]
[AUTOMATED VOICE] In 800 meters,
you will reach your destination.
[JOAN] Come on, girl,
you can do it. Come on.
[JACK] Maybe I should get out
and push, what do you reckon?
[DOG BARKS]
[JOAN] Come on. You're nearly there.
[ENGINE SPUTTERING]
Oh, sod it.
Do I at least get a prize
for getting so close?
Yep. You get to carry the petrol can.
Perfect.
We'll fill up.
Be back on the road
before you can say
[JOAN] Pissing bloody hell.
Right. I'll ring Liz.
Tell her we can't make
the interview today.
What's the point, anyway?
I mean, what can I add to
a proper police investigation?
Listen, you've come all
this way for answers.
This'll help you get them.
Hey.
You'll like her. She's nothing like me.
Guess we're gonna spend the
night in Angel's Crossing.
Angel's bloody Crossing.
[THEME MUSIC]
[WOMAN VOCALIZING]
Won't you love it? ♪
How much gear do you need
for an overnight stay?
We can't all get by on
flip-flops and a clean T-shirt.
Thongs.
Thongs and a clean T-shirt.
So I like a bit of luxury.
So do I.
Really? What's yours?
Ah, a long soak in a hot bath.
Ah, now you're talking.
Come on, Diesel.
Looks nice.
Yeah, just here.
Yeah. Come on, Steve.
I'll give you double
time for New Year's Eve.
I thought we could
glamp in the Daintree.
Yeah, we'll see.
[ROGER] Who was there for you when your
missus kicked you out
and who helped you move back in
when you got back together?
Favours are a two-way street.
Oh, come on, mate. I'll feed
you. I'll give you a room.
Just help me out here.
I can't do tonight this short-staffed.
You said you'd take some time off.
Ruth!
We'll see, okay?
[ROGER] Look I am sorry, folks,
but we're closed for a
New Year's Eve function.
We were hoping that you
might have a couple of rooms.
One with a bath, ideally.
You could try the
motel in Freeman Point.
It's about 40 Ks East.
What about those staff
rooms you were talking about?
Couldn't we book that?
Well, that's a room, and it's singular,
and it's for staff, when I find them.
What if we were your staff?
We're fully qualified.
We've been working our
way around the country.
Haven't we, Jack of all trades?
Hm, something like that.
Well, can you pull a pint?
Yeah, and I can, you
know, I can change a keg.
I'm Joan. This is Jack
and this is Diesel.
If that's alright with you.
Oh, great, and a dog.
Well like I have much choice, huh?
Alright, you clock on in an hour.
- Great.
- This is your room.
It's on the right down the hall.
- Oi. Good on ya.
- Tom!
Mate, this isn't funny.
Clearance sale, vultures
bought everything, Rog.
All of Mum's silverware. Everything.
Except for one thing.
This. So, yeah.
[LAUGHS] Bloody hilarious.
You can't leave it
here. Will you just
It's yours, Rog. Last family heirloom.
- G'day.
- G'day.
He's a character.
There you go.
[DOOR SHUTS]
[JOAN] Okay. One bed.
[MUTTERS INAUDIBLY]
- Thanks.
- There you go.
Don't know whether I
packed for waitressing.
Bloody hell. What did you pack for?
Well, I wasn't gonna
leave it in the van, was I?
I'm gonna go and put my face on.
[JACK] What're you looking at?
[SIGHS]
[WATER RUNNING]
Is that a bath?
[JOAN] Yup.
I bagsed first.
[JACK] I had first dibs.
I beat you to it.
[INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC]
Hope I haven't made us late.
Wow, you look great!
You don't look too bad yourself.
Nothing like a nice, long
soak in a hot bath, is there?
I wouldn't know.
Joan, right?
- Hi.
- Hi, I'm Ruth.
We're working the
dinner service together.
Great.
Come on, I'll show you around.
Oh, dear, what have I got us into?
Who knows?
There she is.
[CHUCKLES]
Very cheeky.
He's changed his tune.
I love New Year's Eve, don't you?
[UPBEAT MUSIC]
Ooh ♪
Our beers.
It's just a soul kinda feeling ♪
Yeah I'm moving with the beat ♪
Ah, glass.
It's just a soul kinda feeling ♪
Impressive.
There you go.
Not talkin' 'bout religion no ♪
Not talkin' 'bout fashion no ♪
So, here you go.
Dan plates up here and we check them off
against the dockets here.
- Alright.
- Dan, this is Joan.
She's helping us out tonight.
- Hi.
- Hi.
So, Roger's thrown you
in the deep end, has he?
Well, who doesn't like a challenge?
Well, you're in good hands
here. Ruth is the best.
How's that entree prep coming?
This way.
So, how long have you two been an item?
Are we that obvious?
[CHUCKLES]
It's the way he looks at you.
Yeah. He does. He sees me.
I think he really does.
After my divorce and everything
you stop thinking it's
possible, you know?
I do.
Just to feel in love again.
I wasn't actually sure
I could let myself.
What was your secret?
Trusting
but that's the hard part.
It felt wrong to be with someone new
after all those years with the same guy.
Does that make sense?
- More than you know.
- [LAUGHING]
- Hey.
- Hey. Happy New Year.
I'll drink to that.
[PHONE VIBRATING]
[MADDIE] Dan. It's Maddie.
I'm waiting outside for you.
[MAN LAUGHS]
Happy New Year.
Making yourself at home, are you?
Hey, it's okay, mate.
You see, I'm allowed to.
Family discount.
So what, do you do your
retirement dough, did you?
I'm just traveling around.
Doing bits and pieces.
Lifestyle choice, eh?
Righty-O. I might make that
my New Year's resolution.
Is that because of the farm business?
I was here when you
brought the sink in.
Yeah, well
You know the farm's been on its knees
ever since Roger decided
he was too good for it?
You know, it's too much for one bloke.
Roger doesn't help you out?
I mean, he can't be too short of a quid.
No, Roger just thinks of number one.
You know, I'm just glad
Mum and Dad aren't alive to see this.
You know, I still talk to them.
Where we scattered their ashes.
Beautiful tree on the farm.
And then we're gonna lose that too.
Yeah, well, that's the
thing about life, isn't it?
Doesn't always work out
how you think it will.
Yeah.
See, that's why I'm
getting what I'm owed.
One frothy at a time.
[CHUCKLING]
Little something from the top shelf.
Jack. Can you grab some
tonic from the back fridge?
Yeah, absolutely.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC]
Now we agreed, I need
time to get the rest.
I'll call you back.
Keep the rubbish in
the fridge, eh? Smart.
It'll kill the maggots.
Grumpy chef, no small talk. I get it.
Can I help you?
Ah, tonic.
Yeah, it's in there.
[DOOR SHUTS]
[MELLOW MUSIC]
It's a lot light, Dan.
Yeah, I told you, I just need some time.
We had some issues with supply.
But I'll get you what you need.
- It's not good enough.
- You just need to back off.
Big bags like that, it
can't be drugs, can it?
Well, either way I think
our chef is a little colourful.
Oh, I hope not for Ruth's
sake. She's such a sweetheart.
This woman, what'd she look like?
Ah, Red hair.
Short black dress.
Gold, um, necklace. Earrings.
Oh, she made quite an impression.
She got what she wanted.
Why is she still here?
[OMINOUS MUSIC]
Dan. What's good on the menu?
Dan? Everything okay?
Yeah.
Joan.
I thought table 15 was a no-show.
Ah. I'll look after her.
She knows Dan.
- Really?
- Yeah.
I bet she's the reason he
runs hot and cold with me.
Oh, God. I knew this
was too good to be true.
Let me see what I can find out.
- Would you?
- You betcha.
Got no Maddie on the guest list.
What did you say your last name was?
- I didn't.
- Oh, well.
I'm sorry, but this is a
private function. So, um
I'm a friend of Dan's from Brisbane.
Can you tell him I'm waiting?
Can I let him know what it's about?
Let him know I'm not going anywhere.
And is there anything I
can get you in the meantime?
Pinot Grigio too much to ask for?
I expect we can manage that.
[JACK] You stole her keys.
Yeah, borrowed them.
To find out what's in the bags.
How is it our business?
Well, you're the one who
said the chef was colourful.
Ruth thinks he's two-timing her.
That's not what I meant by colourful.
He is mixed up in something.
Exactly. I'm worried about Ruth.
I don't want her to get hurt.
And what if this Maddie girl finds out
that her keys are missing?
She won't. Not if you're quick.
This is nuts.
You're a nut.
Takes one to know one.
[SIGHS]
Go on.
- She wants to see you.
- I'm too busy.
Well, she was very insistent.
Just keep her away from Ruth, okay?
- What's going on?
- Oh.
It's nothing. Just a
It's a friend from the
city. Nothing to worry about.
The woman at table 15?
A friend, is she?
So what do you want me
to tell her? Your friend?
[INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC]
Tell him I'm not going anywhere.
- Not without seeing him.
- Right.
[DOOR UNLOCKS]
I'm so stupid.
Of course he's involved
with someone else.
Someone beautiful and
sophisticated from down South.
Oh, no, no, no, I don't think it's that.
Well, what is it?
- Well I
- I'm just gonna ask them.
Oh, no, Ruth. I wouldn't
I need to hear it straight
from the horse's mouth.
How long's it been going on?
I'm sorry?
- Dan and you.
- Just one minute.
I need to know the
truth about you and Dan.
- I deserve that much.
- Me and Dan?
Honey, not in a million years.
- What? I thought
- Oh, no.
We're not, we're not having an affair.
I'm-I'm just helping Maddie.
With something. Can we talk? Please?
Helping himself to something.
Lover boy owes me $50,000.
And I'm not going anywhere without it.
- One way or the other.
- Car park. Now.
What?
- Dan!
- Car park. Now.
Um, Dan, you are needed in the kitchen.
- Five minutes.
- It's urgent.
Who is this woman?
Look, I will get you what you
need I just need more time.
[MADDIE LAUGHS]
[MADDIE] I advanced you $50,000.
So that, you could source
a bigger shipment for me.
And what do you do?
You screw me!
Do you know how that will
play with my brothers?
[SCOFFS]
It's not well.
So get me the money,
or get me the stuff.
I cannot go home empty-handed.
My keys.
Hey, just wait. Wait, wait.
Wait. Just wait one second.
Don't go back in there.
I had felt his staring eyes ♪
You might think that he's real cool ♪
I know he's a real ♪
[JACK] Got more champagne.
Where will I put it?
Oh, you're okay.
Why wouldn't he be?
Oh, you know, the old back.
She thinks I overdo it.
Okay, Jack, look, I want you to
keep an eye on this till, mate.
If it starts to fill up, give me a yell.
I'll transfer the takings to the safe.
People still use cash, eh?
Yeah, a few of us holdouts left.
Has anybody handed in a set of keys?
Oh, yeah. You're in luck, just came in.
Cheers.
I'm gonna call my brothers.
And I'm gonna tell them
that the problem's solved.
'Cause you're gonna solve it, right?
Right.
Um, one thing. They are
terrible with their tempers.
- This is what it's about.
- Tobacco?
Chop-chop.
Farmers who grow illegal
crops, deal it to syndicates
who sell it on to finance harder drugs.
How.. What?
- What's Dan got to do with this?
- He's a middleman.
He got caught short-changing a
client, Maddie and her brothers.
- 50,000.
- Hm.
So that's the pressure he's been under.
[CRASH]
You don't care. You never did.
Alright, that's it, mate.
You're embarrassing yourself now.
You're the embarrassment, mate.
You never really cared about the farm
a great deal, did you,
little brother, eh?
Didn't really care that much
about everything that Mum and Dad did.
Everything they built
up over all those years,
you couldn't give a shit about!
- The farm didn't go broke
- Shut up!
Because of me, Tom.
It went under because you
never took responsibility.
[LAUGHS] Me?
Mate, you're the one
who couldn't hack it
Hey, why don't we just get the
temperature down a bit, fellas?
How many times did I bail you out?
And how many times did you
piss away every opportunity?
[GRUNTS]
- Come here!
- Get off me!
We don't need that.
[JACK] Come on.
Argh. Come on. Come on. Come on.
- You never
- Come on, just Let's go.
You wait. You'll get it, mate!
Come on!
You certainly know how to put
on a good show for New Year's.
Yeah, well, I got a
new resolution in mind.
- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.
- Can you divorce a sibling?
- Hm!
Is that a real thing?
Tom feels hard done-by.
Well, no alcoholic needs
a publican as a brother.
Tom's got substance issues.
There's not much help
you can give to someone
who doesn't want to be helped.
Yeah, well, that sounds
like the voice of experience.
Yeah. Yeah, many years in emergency.
Doesn't mean you stop trying.
[SIGHS]
You know, you're a good sort, Joan.
Jack's a lucky man.
Oh, no. Jack and I, it's not like
Oh!
You're gonna have
quite the shiner there.
- Here, hold that.
- Ow!
Thanks.
[INDISTINCT CHATTER]
[INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC]
[RUTH] Why didn't you tell me?
[DAN] 'Cause I didn't want you to know.
I thought we had something.
We should never have gotten involved.
This is never gonna work.
- Dan, I wanna help you.
- I don't want your help!
It was a fling. Alright?
- Didn't mean anything.
- What?
Don't you dare.
What the hell are you doing,
Ruth? This behaviour isn't on.
You-you're fired.
Your brother punches you,
steals from you, that's fine.
I lose my temper once
and it's "you're fired?"
After all these years?
I'll pay you through the
end of the shift. Get out.
Fine. You can all get stuffed.
Roger. Ruth!
Just clean it up.
Ruth, wait!
What for?
You've both got to want it, right?
Otherwise, what's the point?
Yeah, but
Happy New Year.
I hope it's better than this one.
Same to you.

Happy New Year, Joan.
You too, Jack.
[MELLOW MUSIC]
[LAUGHS]
[SIGHS] Hello, you. Gosh, I'm pooped.
- That was exhausting.
- Yeah.
Right, well, I'll,
um, sleep on the floor.
Oh, don't be daft.
The bed's big enough.
We're both grown-ups, aren't we?
Yeah.
[SIGHS]
[INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC]
[EXHALES]
Joan!
[DOG BARKS]
Joan, there's a fire!
Oh. Oh, no!
- Come out.
- Jack, the door's stuck.
The handle's come off.
- Step back.
- Okay.
[SCREAMS]
- Come on. Come on, Diesel.
- Come on, Diesel.
[JACK COUGHING]
Oh, my bag! My bag!
Joan, forget it!
Joan!
- Joan!
- Yeah?
Get going. Give me that.
[INTENSE MUSIC]
- Come on, come on.
- Oh, dammit.
[JACK] Come on. Come on, Joan.
Get here as quick as you can,
- the place is going up fast.
- Roger, how'd this start?
- Dammit!
- I don't know, I've been robbed.
- The safe's been robbed.
- Anyone in here?
- You need to get out.
- I haven't checked.
- Hey.
- Come on.
Fire, anyone in here, get out!
Get out, there's a fire!
Come on, Roger. Everyone
needs to get out.
- Fire! Everyone out!
- Jack, come on!
Fire!
[COUGHING]
Jack, are you okay?
Yeah, it's the bloody
smoke. Where's Diesel?
- Where is he?
- Diez?
- Diesel!
- Diesel.
Diesel? Come here. Come here.
What are you doing? Come here.
[SIREN WAILING]
I'll let the arson guys know.
- Thanks, mate.
- Okay.
[FEMALE #1] Deep breath.
That's it. Well done.
So, do we know how it started?
Arson.
- Accelerant in the kitchen.
- Oh!
Did you see anything, Roger?
Where were you when the fire started?
What, are you, are you accu
I was seeing the last of the guests out.
Lucky I did.
[JOAN] Well, if it wasn't Roger
Dan? He needed money.
Maybe if he was trying
to cover the theft?
And he's nowhere to be seen now.
[RUTH COUGHS]
Hey, Ruth! Ruth. You okay?
Yeah, there's so much smoke.
- Here. Have some water.
- Have you seen Dan?
No, nobody has.
No, it's alright.
There's no one in the
building, they checked.
He must've got out.
I was at home, and I-I keep calling him
but he's not answering.
I heard it started in the kitchen
and I just thought maybe
He's alright. He's gonna be alright.
Do they know how it started?
- It's looking like arson.
- Oh!
- Maybe it was Dan's friend.
- Maddie?
Didn't she leave when
you gave her the keys?
[JACK] Couldn't.
Two flat tires.
Mysteriously deflated. Very clever.
Maybe the sarge'd like
to have a look in her car.
Hey, sarge. Lady over there.
I'd be checking the boot of her car.
Right-O. We'll take a look.
Her brothers won't be
happy by the sound of them.
There was no evidence
connecting her to the fire.
Whoever started the fire, it
feels like an attack of sorts.
Personal beef.
Tom's Ute.
Empty.
A motive and a means.
And I know where he'll be.
Talking to his parents.
[JOAN SIGHS]
[JACK] Round here somewhere.
Tom?
You okay, mate?
I'm-I'm fine.
We need to get you to a hospital.
Been telling Mum and
Dad about the fire, hey?
Gonna call an ambulance.
Any idea how the fire started, mate?
Wasn't me.
I passed out in the back of the Ute.
Woke up when the place went up.
Was trying Was trying to find Rog.
Is Rog Is Rog okay?
Yeah, yeah. Roger's okay.
- But you found the safe.
- What?
Well, you knew where it was,
you knew what was in it
I guess you knew the
combination, didn't you?
How many times I thought
of burning that pub down.
But I didn't.
I didn't steal his money,
I don't want his money.
Righty-O.
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
It's on its way.
It's just not right.
Arson Squad think it is.
But Tom's burns don't
even support arson.
Nah, it'd be on his face and
arms, not his palms and knees.
Yeah, from crawling to escape the fire.
We appreciate your efforts
but we have our person of interest.
They won't even look for Dan. Ugh!
Move along, old people.
It's so condescending.
Jack, they've got the wrong
person, I just know it.
But we know that any number of people
could've started that fire.
We need to go back and
talk to the detective.
Sit her down and just tell her.
Oh! I know what you're thinking.
You're thinking it's
like with Ian, that I just
refuse to believe he's guilty.
[UPBEAT MUSIC]
You ready?
Yeah.
Prick.
Showing your face here.
- What was that about?
- Nothing.
Hi. What time do you call this?
We got held up a bit.
Well, you're here now. Joan, hello.
Lovely to meet you.
Is there anything I can
get you before we start?
- Tea, water?
- No. No, thank you. I'm fine.
I'll have a cup of tea.
Come through.
So you had no idea that your husband was
politically active at university?
Ian? No.
He always read the papers,
but he never got involved.
Just to confirm the image
on the screen is your husband
Ian Kirkhope, also known as Rob Deacon.
Yes. Where was that picture taken?
In Brisbane. By an embedded
UPO, Undercover Police Officer.
Shortly before he disappeared.
He looks so angry.
Rob Deacon was the leader
of an anti-government student movement.
Protests he got involved
with were pretty violent.
On both sides.
Are you trying to tell me that he was
some sort of rioting activist?
I don't think that's possible.
The person murdered by Rob Deacon, Ian,
was the UPO who covertly
took these photos.
But he-he wouldn't do that.
He just wouldn't hurt anyone.
The officer was wearing a
wire at the time of her death.
A woman?
[GASPS]
What you're about to
hear, it's quite graphic.
So if you'd rather not, we can
No, no. I want to hear it.
I want to hear it.
- What do we want?
- The right to protest!
- When do we want it?
- Now!
- What do we want?
- The right to protest!
- When do we want it?
- Now!
The police charged at the protesters.
The government of the day
wanted the protest snuffed out.
[LIZ] And the protesters fought back,
and the clashes became
increasingly violent.
[ROB] Everyone! Grab a weapon.
- Anything you can find!
- It's him.
Fight back! Let's go!
[CLAMOURING]
The officer's identity was compromised
when she called for backup.
Then what happened?
[POLLY] They are coming from the east.
Repeat, they are coming
from the east with weapons.
[ROB] Polly, what are you
saying, are you one of them?
- Rob, get off!
- Ah! I trusted you!
You're one of them?!
That's Ian finding the wire on the UPO.
[ROB] We trusted you!
What's wrong with his voice?
Riot police were deploying tear gas.
It would've been just, you
know, filled with smoke.
This is where the incident takes place.
- Rob, no, please!
- Now, get back!
- Ah!
- I said, "Get back!"
[FEMALE #2] Get off of
him, Polly! Wait, Rob!
Who was that? There was a woman's voice.
She could be a witness!
Oh, no, we haven't been
able to confirm her identity.
We need to find her.
She'll know what really happened.
What? What's that look about?
Liz has more to play for us.
[GUNSHOT]
[ROB] Oh, my God.
- Oh, God, no!
- My God.
- No
- She's dead.
- Go, get out of here.
- Ian wouldn't shoot anyone.
[IAN] Run! Run! She's dead!
Ian wouldn't shoot anyone.
[IAN] Run, go!
He couldn't.
I'm sorry.
He couldn't.
He couldn't.
[CRIES]
I need a minute.
We'll be outside.
[MELLOW MUSIC]
Any way we can put this
genie back in the bottle?
What, this active investigation
your enquiries triggered?
Doesn't work that way these days.
Doesn't do anyone any
good, you know, raking up
this sort of muck, does it?
[LIZ] Can't stop asking
questions 'cause the answers
you're getting aren't the ones you want.
Who taught me that?
Some idiot.
[CHUCKLING]
Is there anything else I need to know?
From your investigation
that might impact mine?
[JACK] $250,000.
That still doesn't mean he's
guilty of killing somebody.
What did Ian need a quarter
of a million in cash for?
And how is it connected to
him coming back to Australia?
And how long have you
been sitting on this?
Not long.
Dad.
[JOAN] No, no, Jack's not guilty.
This is the last link that I had to Ian,
and I, I hoped it might be the key
to explaining it all.
Well, if it is, you'll
be the first to find out.
[MELLOW MUSIC]
Receipt for 250,000.
Big thing for you, coming
to a police station.
After everything.
Thanks for helping Joan.
I know you bent a few rules.
We're never gonna talk about
how the job ended for you?
Hm. Joan's lovely.
Nothing's going on, Lizzie.
- Detective Inspector.
- Lizzie.
She's good for you.
She's got you working again.
[INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC]
How long since you last saw Liz?
Little while.
Something happened that made
you leave the force, didn't it?
In the past.
The past.
It's hard not to let it consume you.
Come on, let's go.
[AUTOMATED VOICE] Your destination
is Osprey Falls, Queensland.
Start on
[SIGHS]
Must have been difficult
in there, listening to Ian.
I don't even wanna
think about it anymore.
I'm too flipping tired and hungry.
Nuts?
Where'd you get those?
Found 'em.
They got it wrong you know. Pub fire.
After listening to Ian's croaky voice,
there was someone else
with a croaky voice
who claimed they weren't in
the pub when the fire started.
And it wasn't Tom.
No, it wasn't Tom.
It was someone who might
be hiding their symptoms.
And putting their life at risk.
Yeah.
[DRAMATIC MUSIC]
Ruth!
Ruth!
[KNOCKING]
Ruth?
Ruth?
- Ruth?
- Ruth?
[DOG BARKS]
Ruth?
Ruth? Ruth?
Ruth?
Jack, get an ambulance.
The airways are damaged.
We're gonna get you some help, okay?
[MALE #1] What's your emergency?
I need an ambulance.
Joan, look.
[SIREN WAILING]
It's okay. Shh.
It's okay.
How's she doing?
They're transferring her
to Brisbane for more tests.
She thought a lot of you, mate.
Knocked over a safe.
And started a fire to cover her tracks.
That's because of me. I
mean, this is my fault.
What was the 50,000 for?
My dad, he's a gambler.
He got himself into trouble, again.
So I paid his debt.
Thought I could hold off Maddie
until I fixed it, but then
Ruth fixed it for you.
Why would she do this?
People do inexplicable things for love.
[JACK] You gonna be charged?
Well, the police said if
I testify against Maddie
and her family, I should be okay, but
it's not me I'm worried about.
[INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC]
Hey. How you going? You doing good?
- I'm okay.
- Good. I'm here.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, it's
not a bloody race, Roger.
You can't use your hands, you old fool.
[TOM] Well I'm not an invalid, mate.
[ROGER] Actually, you are.
Well, just, just wait here.
- Where are you going?
- Shut up!
Hey, mate.
Hey.
I just want to say thank you
for what you did for my brother.
Team effort, wasn't it?
Look after yourself.
See you, Joan.
- Bye.
- In your own time, Rog.
- Right-O.
- All the best, mate.
[INSTRUMENTAL MUSIC]
There you go.
[JOAN] Thank you.
I don't believe he was a murderer.
He can't have been.
[SIGHS]
What do you want to do now?
I need to know who my husband was.
