Top Of The Lake (2013) s01e06 Episode Script

1 'Morning.
'Morning.
I'm going to make a case against Matt.
I think that if Matt was gone, I think Tui would come back.
Have you thought it might be Jamie's baby? He's paddling supplies out there, he's stealing for them.
Is that too simple for you, Detective? The earthmoving company is a front.
I'm not going to turn Matt in for drugs.
Where's his lab? He's got one, hasn't he? For making ecstasy and amphetamines.
Everyone's involved out here.
They'll come after you.
They'll shoot holes in these windows.
They'll burn this place down.
It's their livelihood.
Well, it's fucking up their kids.
Jamie had rohypnol in his bag.
Everyone likes to experiment.
Kids experiment.
On your sister? It's a rape drug.
If you go after Matt, you won't be able to live here.
I can't go to Australia.
I've got a conviction.
- How are ya? - Good, good.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Brought some souvenirs over from your mum's.
Yeah, I had to move out.
Turns out Jude didn't own the house.
- Well, who does? - Matt Mitcham.
Got to move in with my cousin now down in Manapouri.
- I'll see you later? - Thanks.
Did you know about the house? No, I didn't.
Hey, I'm not him.
I'm your boyfriend.
So why aren't the police I.
T.
guys looking for Platt's computer? Al runs a pretty loose office.
So who are these guys, - Shane and Shane? - Programmers.
Friends of my brother's.
If there is a hidden file, It's probably in a zip file with a password.
Maybe he's just tried to hide it in some system folder.
- Hey Robin, how are ya? - Hey! How are you? Okay, we're looking for a hidden file.
Photographs, accounts.
Anything porny? Maybe.
Don't know.
You came to the right place, lady.
Big Shane'll find it in no time.
He's got a seventh sense for porn.
Thank you, Shane.
No, nothing.
But I'm running this little tool.
Going to check for unusual file sizes.
- Sorry to hear about your mum.
- Thanks.
- Place hasn't changed a bit.
- Not at all.
Hey, that shouldn't be 340 megabytes.
Let's see what else is in here.
Look at this.
Shit.
Ugly.
Hey, who's the little baby? Where'd you find them? In his my documents folder.
These, these were in the hidden zip file.
Brown room 1 to 10.
What is that? What's that? What is it? A nightclub for old geezers? Can't see the whole of anyone.
There's Bob.
He's the nappy guy, yeah? Why would you hide this? There aren't even any tits here.
Al, I had a couple of people go over Bob Platt's computer.
- That is not protocol.
- I had permission.
Who from? Do you happen to know any clubs, or houses even, with a brown room.
And a deer head? A deer head? Very common here.
Anything else? Al, I'm going to pull a car over.
Speak to you tomorrow.
Licence, please.
Hi, Simone.
- Where are you all off to? - Book club.
- What you reading? - Blue velvet.
- Thought it was a film.
- We're doing the book version.
Didn't know it was a book.
Who wrote it? We don't care.
Hey, Simone, can I speak to you alone for a moment? Anything you want to say, you can say it in front of my mates.
I want to help the kids up here.
And I want to know what's really going on up at Mitcham's.
Get in.
We work for him, but I think you already know that, don't you? Delia and I are the cleaners.
Yeah, good one.
House is a fucking wreck.
- Simone does the - Accounts.
I want to mount a case against Matt.
Can you help me? No one's talking to you.
Okay? I like these mountains, lady, but without Matt, fuck, I'd have to live in Christchurch and work all day for fucking nothing.
He pays for our medical bills, for our kids too.
We're a family.
Sometimes shit happens.
If you think you're helping us, you're dumb.
Aren't you worried about your kids? Simone? Aren't you worried about Jamie? Jamie's gone.
What do you mean? Where? Where's he gone? I don't know.
You can get out now.
When was the last time you spoke to him, Simone? - Please, Simone? - I said out.
- You know where I live.
- Yeah, yeah.
We know where you live.
Johnno, hi.
Where are you? Have you forgotten tonight? I cooked risotto.
Johnno? Hey.
Has something happened? I can't do this.
Can't do what? You can't come to dinner? You can't You know, you think you can do whatever you want.
But you can't.
I don't know what's going to happen to us.
You don't care.
All you care about is Matt.
I need to be on my own.
Someone shot at me.
- When? - About 15 minutes ago.
Fuckin' hell.
- Where are they? - Well, it might have been a mistake.
I mean, I'm not sure what they were aiming at.
I told you this'd happen.
- Hey! - Who've you been talking to? - Who you been riling up? - Put that away, okay? It looked like they were aiming at me.
- I'm not - Yeah? That's a warning.
You're going to have to leave your crib, probably tonight.
- So where are you gonna go? - Johnno, you're paranoid.
Yeah, that's right.
I am.
I'm leaving.
- Wait! - I was waiting.
You should have called me.
What am I supposed to do, Robin? Hang around in the dark all night trying to fucking protect you? Right, well just tell me where they were.
At least do that.
Fuck! Wakey, wakey.
Rise and shine.
Luke? Luke.
I'm gonna need you this weekend.
We're going to find Tui.
Bit of privacy, Dad.
Round up a bunch of your friends.
Hunters.
Bush pigs.
People that know what they're doing up there.
- No city guys.
- Yeah, just shut it, okay? - Tell them there'll be a reward.
- Awesome, Dad! Just shut the door! Jesus! There goes another three of them.
Matt's definitely arcing up, Al.
Yeah, well, they'll be the last three to get through without a licence check.
- Can you help stop these? - Yeah.
Where you guys headed? We're going to find my daughter.
Have you got a problem with that? Could I see IDs, please? - Think you know me.
- Everyone's.
We're doing a DNA test of everyone going into and out of Laketop.
If you don't comply, your names will go on a list of suspects.
No.
Not doing it.
They're not doing it, either.
Next question.
I suppose you have licences for these weapons.
You want to see them? Thought you might.
Enjoying yourself, are ya? You know, while you're wasting everybody's time, we're actually trying to find her.
Morning, Al.
What are these guys doing here? We don't need this kind of raw steak up here.
You asked yourself why she hasn't come home yet, Matt? 'Cause she's a bloody-minded little shit and you know it.
I've got nothing to worry about.
Why don't you do the test, then? You finished? You finished? There you go.
So what did you want to ask GJ? She wants to ask about the baby.
She doesn't know how to get it out.
You need to get to a hospital.
I can take you whenever you like.
Melissa can come too, if you like.
The body has tremendous intelligence.
Follow the body.
It will know what to do.
I don't want to be naked.
Hey, I've had a couple of kids.
Had one at home.
It was that quick and easy, I nearly missed it.
- God, lucky my sister was there - Mark! Mark! Dad wants you! Mark! Mark isn't here.
He's in Anne-Marie's container, down the end.
They're gone.
- Look at this.
- God.
- Is that blood? - It is.
Remember the night you stayed over? Look, I just want to assure you that.
When you passed out, I treated you with respect.
Complete respect.
Okay.
Thank you.
Have you ever tried an older man? You should.
Experience counts.
I want to do a raid on Matt's house.
I'm sure there's a lab there.
What's the evidence? Three or four women from Laketop go up there every day.
- They're not housekeeping.
- All right.
Any of them prepared to testify? You know, I've looked at his file.
There's been two previous cases mounted.
- Yeah, but the witnesses drop off.
- Why? That's something we should talk about.
Look, I promised myself I'd go fishing on Saturday.
But if you get yourself out to the wharf in the afternoon.
We can go out and run through some options.
Hey, where is she? Come back here! Putty's here! Come back here! I can help you! I can help! Piss off, Putty! We told you, you couldn't come! - Twelve years old and - Piss off, Putty.
Putty's got the book.
- He's tells us he's a midwife.
- His mother was a midwife.
Lookie.
Take a look at this.
All in there, you see? Lookie.
A happy birth day.
Look Give her this From me.
Close your eyes.
So who did it? Was it you? The dark creator.
Who? A person who sucks the heart out of people.
Who uses people.
Just like the serpent in paradise.
We don't have snakes in New Zealand.
You know who it is.
Wake up.
Stop, mate.
Lukie, what is it? Where the fuck you going, mate? What is it? Must be the kids.
Nighty-night, guys.
Happy birthday, dear Tui! Happy birthday to you - Hip-hip! - Hooray! - Hip-hip! - Hooray! - Hip-hip! - Hooray! Take her to a hospital.

You know what crack head time is? Where is she? - Leave them alone! - Where's Tui? Hey, Terry.
You gonna go for a swim? Yeah, I can hear you.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Al, Al, I am listening, okay? You're just not telling me anything.
The Detective problem is about to go away.
Yeah, she's gonna dissolve.
Everyone inside! Latest intelligence from Mark and Luke.
Is that she spent the night in the double-barrel hut.
When you find her, don't swear.
Don't fight.
Don't do anything to scare the kid.
If you hurt her.
If you harm my daughter in any way.
You don't come off the mountain.
The reward is ten thousand dollars cash.
Where's the key? - Where's the key? - I don't know.
- Where is it? This is my mother's cup.
She used to drink from it.
It's very precious.
Thanks for coming.
Yeah, so be careful, okay? Okay.
Show me.
It's from Putty.
His mum was a midwife.
I think you're up to here.
Well, it shouldn't be that hard.
I'll show you.
See? It's easy.
I don't even know how it got in there.
Can you feel it? Yeah.
How do you afford your lakeside mansion, Al? I wouldn't know how much it's worth.
I looked in the real estate pages.
It'd be worth two million.
Got it off an American billionaire who had to get out quick for a very reasonable price.
I'll just get us a drink.
God, I love this place.
You don't fish? No? Made for fishing.
They fish a lot of eels out here.
I don't like eels.
It's just one of those things Al, take me to shore.
Yeah, just listen to him.
You're safe, okay? I'm here.
There's nothing to worry about.
We need to talk.
You and I.
I don't want to hurt anyone, okay? Don't want to see anybody lose their jobs, so just chill out.
Al, give her a drink.
- Give her a drink.
- Please, Al.
You and I have got something in common, you know that? Yeah? A little girl.
My little girl.
We're both trying to find her.
What the fuck does he want? What the Where do you think you're going? You're not interested in what I've got to say? I think you might be.
Johnno, she's a guest.
You're no son of mine! That went well.
I heard about the fishing trip from Luke.
I didn't like it.
Matt's got his men all over these hills looking for Tui.
- They're all over the place like dogs.
- Do they know where she is? They know where she was yesterday.
They want us to go in on the track, on the other side of the double barrel.
Scuzz, leave the fuckin' thing there.
Come on! Let's go.
No bikes now.
If we find Tui, I want you to get out of here.
Just leave.
Get on a plane.
That'd be kidnapping.
Good.
At least she'd be out of here.
What about us? Look at this.
Hey, Tui? Is that you? Fuck! It's okay, Tui! - We - Fuck! - Shit and hell! Tui! Your Dad knows you're pregnant, girl.
It's all right.
How do we get up there? Just follow the river.

It's a promise on my son's head.
I'll go to the police station.
Wherever you want.
And I can get some other girls, too.
- Sara and Narelle.
-We can do it the day after tomorrow.
Can you make some notes? It will help you to remember.
- Are you - I want you to.
Love you.
Don't you give up.
Hey, where's Al? Is he in? Yeah, he wanted to see you.
He's downstairs in the cellar room talking to some chick who whacked someone at the world bar.
Whoa! No, stand up, love.
Stand up.
Come on, straight.
We need to take a statement.
- Have you seen the Detective Sergeant? - No.
We need to take a statement here, mate.
No, this is the part where I have green cream.
- Green cream? - Green cream.
What about, um - Getting a job organised there? - Yes, absolutely.
Very good.
- Okay.
Well Good seeing you.
- Thank you.
And, um Tegan? A customer.
- Can I join you? Well, look at, look at the customer when they are ordering.
- She'll tell you what she wants.
- Flat white, thank you.
Okay, I'll see you back there, Pete.
Matt Mitcham wants to make a confession and he wants to make it to you alone.
What about? I don't know.
He says it's personal.
About Tui? Wow.
Well, I don't want you going up there alone, So I'll get Pete to drive you and he can stay as back-up.
However, Matt said you can record the interview, you can even videotape it.
So you can get the gear out of the store room.
- What's your name? - Tegan.
Thanks, Tegan.
See you later.
Matt wants to make a confession, just to me.
- I'm going out there tomorrow.
- He's up to something and you know what, Robin, you're being naive.
It'll be a set-up.
He said I can record it.
I don't like it.
Why don't you make him come into the station like anybody else? Someone like Matt wants to stage his own confession.
It gives him a sense of control when his world's falling apart.
You know what's special and scary about today? What's that? Tui's baby's due.
How is she going to manage? You know, when I was in Bang Kwang, I would lie awake at night, thinking I was.
Going to die in that place.
I didn't care.
But not loving anyone, not knowing a woman deeply, that made me sad.
Now I'm scared 'cause I do.
Fuckin' scared.
New batteries.
Should last four to six hours.
Be careful you don't switch it off.
Yeah, I know that.
Let's go, Elliott.
- What the distress code? - "That's unacceptable".
If I say it twice, it means get reinforcements.
