Where'd you get these?
[Drysdale] At a party. Tonight.
It wasn't Tom.
What wasn't Tom?
He didn't take them.
-The fuck?
-Yeah, it was Cam and the girl.
You were the one that took her on.
She's smart.
Guess she outsmarted me.
How do you want to deal with this?
Same as you did poor Tommy?
Don't you fuckin' push me.
Do your fucking job and maybe
there won't be any more mistakes.

Hello?
[Woman] Where are you?
I've been trying to call you.
Ma! (laughs) You get the present?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, what are these, darling?
Yeah, they're real pearls, baby.
Really? Are you sure?
There's a certificate.
Where am I going to wear these pearls?
I don't know. You wear 'em wherever you want.
Wear 'em uh, wear 'em to the wedding.
I can't.
Fine. Wear them to the shops
or the pokies.
-Fuck, I don't know.
-Where did you get them?
I paid for them.
How do you think I got them?
-Stop yelling--
-I'm yelling because you always do this.
You know what? I was trying
to do something nice for you.
-Don't talk to me like that.
-All you do is fucking complain.
Fuck you. Fuck you!
Fuck you! Fuckin' fuck you!

[knock at door]
Hi.
[Drysdale] What are you doing here?
I have a proposition for you.
[sighs]
[exhales heavily]
-Well?
-I have information.
Thought maybe if I told you
you could make the bullshit charges
you cooked up go away.
I'm listening.
It's about Cam.
I overheard someone say
they know where he is.
It was that girl, Scout.
You know, the one that went missing?
Where is she?
[electronic music]
[screaming]
-Get off me!
-[policeman] Shut up! Round the back!
[distant yelling]
[yelling continues]
Oh, there he is.
You piece of shit! Fuckin'
[continues yelling]
[gasps]
[girl cries out]
[music continues]
[car approaches]
[music fades]
[grunts in pain]
[Saranya] Are you serious? Scout did that?
All I wanted was a chat.
Can I get you a bandage?
Some antiseptic or something?
A bandage, thanks.
When did you last see her?
This morning.
What time?
I don't know. Early.
She was heading out for a ride.
How well does she know
that crowd at the squat?
She's been away. I don't know.
What, she doesn't tell you
what she gets up to?
When you were 20, did you always tell
your mum where you were going?
Isn't it a mother's job to find out?
A mother's job is to teach her kids
not to need her anymore.
[glass clinks]
Is everything OK?
Has she said or done anything unusual?
Anything to suggest
she might be in trouble?
-No, nothing.
-What about her other friends?
Surely there's someone she runs to
when she's in strife?
Yeah, Hedwig.
What about you? Have you seen her?
-Who, Scout?
-Yeah.
Not since this morning
when she stormed off.
Why'd she storm off?
She, um, was angry at the cop.
-What cop?
-Ezra Katz.
He's an old friend from years ago.
I used to board with his mum.
He just came round to say hi.
What, Scout took offence?
She takes offence at a lot of things,
doesn't she, Huck?
Mmm, yeah, she does.
[kettle whistles]
[Huck] Saranya.
[kettle whistles loudly]
Saranya, do you want to
turn that off, please.
[sighs]
Well, uh, thank you both
so much for your time.
[mysterious music]
[waves crash]
[engine stops]
What do you want?
This house is incredible, Grace.
You probably want to hang on
to that, right?
Yeah, and then there's Octavia.
[kisses hand] Whew. She's a keeper.
You definitely don't want to lose her.
And of course
there's those two little girls,
adorable little cuties.
Then there's your job.
You know, your reputation, your freedom.
You've got an amazing life, Lou.
Don't let it go up in flames.
What's happened?
Some unexpected loose ends.
What are you going to do?
Oh, whatever it takes to tie them up.
What, you think there's another way?
A way that doesn't involve
those two little girls
finding out that Daddy's a faggot?
[breathes heavily]
Tell me what you want.
I just want you to understand
that we're in this together.
Shit's gonna go down,
and you're gonna help clear it up.
[Octavia] Lou?
-Oh. Hi, Ben.
-Hey.
-What are you boys doing?
-Nothing.
You can go back to bed, honey. Just work.
What, at this time?
Surely it can wait till tomorrow.
[Lou sighs]
What?
What is it?
You want to tell her or should I?
You need to go.
My husband can't help you. Not anymore.
What's she on about, Grace?
Whatever trouble you're in, Ben,
you need to leave him out of it.
Yeah, maybe you should
You think you've got
all the answers, don't you?
Yeah. There's a lot you don't know
about your husband.
Like the USB?
The sex?
The drugs?
Hush money? You?
There's nothing I don't know.
My husband's a good man.
He's just made some bad mistakes,
which is more than I can say for you.
So if you'll excuse us,
we'd like you
to get the fuck out of our house!
Well this is adorable.
Yeah, look away all you like, Grace.
Whatever I'm doing, I'm doing it
to save both our arses.
See you tomorrow, boss.

Hello.
[O'Shea] Sarge, you need to
get to the beach.
We found Hedwig Shelly.
[sombre music]
[seatbelt clicks]
Constable.
Who found her?
Some bloke who was fishing early,
around 6:30.
[Drysdale] Give us a minute.
Hey.
Last time you were in a bit of a rush
to get away, hey?
We've just got a couple of questions, um,
did you wanna answer 'em here
or back at the station?
Station it is, then.
Don't touch me.
-Don't fucking touch me.
-Sarge, we bringing her in?
-Ah, very perceptive, Constable.
-Shouldn't I call her mum?
Nah, not just yet.
I'll take her. I'll get her processed,
have her ready when you come in.
I'll deal with her.
You've got unfinished business here.
Why don't I drive her to the station
first, then you--
I said I'll deal with her.
[engine starts]
[sinister music]
[music intensifies]
Friendship's a funny thing.
You think you know someone, then
You reckon Hedwig knew
what you were gonna do to her that night?
I didn't kill her.
Well, you were the last one to see her.
Ah, maybe it wasn't you,
maybe it was someone else.
[Scout breathes heavily]
Someone like Cam?
[whimpers]
I know you know where he is.
[Scout gasps]
You know, our first year on the force, uh,
some lady just went (mimics falling sound effect) right over the top.
Never did find out if she
[clicks tongue]
topped herself or, uh, or
something more sinister.
Which is a real shame for the daughter
that she left behind, you know?
Whoa!
[Scout cries out]
[Drysdale laughs]
Imagine that.
Your own mum, little mummy
smashed up against the rocks.
Yuck.
[Scout breathes heavily]
Is there anything you want to say to me?
Take me back to the fuckin' station.
They're expecting me.
[gasps]
[O'Shea] Where have you been?
Tell me, Constable. What do we know
about the cause of Miss Shelly's death?
We won't get the full report
until midday tomorrow.
Go on, give us a hint.
That's an order, Constable.
Coroner says it's going to be
hard to determine.
She was submerged for a while.
-Interview room free?
-What are the charges?
Resisting arrest, assaulting an officer,
fleeing a crime scene.
What?
We had a little run-in at the squat.
She's a little pit bull, this one.
-I never fuckin' touched you.
-Evidence says otherwise.
Where's Gracie?
-He's not in today.
-Why?
'Cause he called in sick.
You can't keep me here forever.
I know my rights.
I don't want to keep you here forever,
just long enough.
Then you can go home to Mummy
and take your chances.
I know who you are.
They don't, but I do.
Good.
Then you know to be afraid.
[eerie music]
[door slams]
[phone rings]
Hello. Detective Katz' phone.
Hello.
[call disconnects]
Hey, where's Katz?
Uh, don't know. He was racing out
when I got here this morning.
Where was he going?
Some sort of family emergency.
He finished that archiving, though.
What archiving?
[grunts]
[music intensifies]
[suspenseful music]
[door closes]
What were you doing in there?
Nothing.
Her mum's inside. She wanted to see her.
How did she know she was here?
Get back to your desk.
[Scout] No. I said go!
Get out!
Get out! Get out, get out, get out!
Get out, Mum!
Time to go, Ms Lewis.
[Saranya] What did you say to her?
Why won't she speak to me?
I could ask you the same thing, Ms Lewis.
-How long will you keep her?
-Until we're finished with her.
I don't know what you're after,
but my daughter is not a criminal.
Yeah, well,
that's what all the mothers say.
Facts remain the same.
We raided the squat and she ran.
Well, I would too
if the police barged in on me.
Did you want to lodge a formal complaint?
I wanna talk to Lou Gracie.
Mmm, yeah he's not in today.
[phone rings]
[recording] You've reached Florence Katz.
Please leave a message.
[steady beeping]
[TV game show blares]
[birdsong]
[TV game show continues to blare]
[man on TV] And here we go!

[man on TV] And it's back to
the swingin' '60s!
[grunts]
[man on TV] Your scenic tour includes
a free beverage from the onboard bar,
a light lunch and afternoon tea,
accompanied by a wildlife commentary
from your qualified guide.
[woman on TV] That sounds lovely.
Thank you!
[cheering on TV]
-Have you been sailing before, Beryl?
- I've been onboard and had a look
around the Queen Mary once.
- Well, I assume
you've got your sea legs, then.
Moving right on to round three, Team A,
your area of specialty for this round
is sporting heroes of yesterday
[TV noise becoming distant]
[phone rings]
[recording] You've reached Florence Katz.
Please leave a message.
[recorder beeps]
[Saranya] Ezra? Ezra, what's going on?
Scout's at the station.
They're not letting her go.
Ben Drysdale came to my house.
He knows you were there, but he doesn't
know about Hedwig's friend.
Ezra, please, call me as soon as you can.
[recorder beeps]
[phone beeps]
[recording] Message deleted.
[tyres squeal]
[tyres screech]

[kettle whistles]
[Huck] Saranya.
Saranya, do you want to
turn that off, please.
Well uh, thank you both so much
for your time.
Mmm.
What the hell was that about?
[whispers] I saw her. I saw Scout.
-Where?
-Just now. She was outside.
-Then why didn't you tell him?
-Why the fuck did you?
Where are you going, baby?
She needs me.
No, I need you. The baby needs you.
-It's late.
-So go to bed.
-She's not here.
-I saw her.
No, you didn't see her.
You never see her.
Not the real one. She's ruining us.
She's tearing us apart.
What are you talking about?
I need you to open your eyes for our baby.
We were great before Scout came back.
We were better than great.
-We were a family.
-Scout is my family!
What the fuck?!
She treats you like shit.
She treated Hedwig like shit.
Face it. Your daughter
is a total fucking cunt.
Go!
Pack your shit and leave.
[unsettling music]
You're fucking kidding me!
Scout!
[sobs]
[phone rings]
[grunts]
Scout.
[sighs]
[phone continues to ring]
Hello?
[O'Shea] Ms Lewis?
Yes.
It's Constable O'Shea.
What's happened?
We found Hedwig Shelly's body.
We need you to come to the station.
Scout's here.
[eerie music]
[crow calls]
[Saranya] Huck. Have you seen him?
No. Can I help?
There's something I wanna tell him,
that's all.
You're pregnant, aren't you?
[laughs]
-You look happy.
-I am happy.
So, it's a good thing?
Yes. Yes, why wouldn't it be?
I don't know. Some people
aren't cut out to be parents.
I don't mean you.
Hedwig, if there's something
you want to talk to me about, I'm here.
You know that, don't you?
You can tell me anything.
Anything?
It'll be between you and me,
no-one else.
More secrets.
Anyway, you're a great mum. Obviously.
[Saranya laughs]
I'm sure Scout would disagree.
She wouldn't.
You won't tell her?
I haven't even told Huck yet.
Your body, your choice.
Go on. Live a little.
I won't tell.
[giggles]
[laughs]
[squeals]
[laughs]
[squeals]
[handbrake creaks]
[seatbelt clicks]
[Saranya] Where's my daughter?
Where is she?
She's OK. She's fine.
Look, the best thing that you can do is--
I want to see her.
We just need her
to answer a few questions.
I want to see my daughter.
[door opens]
Scout!
Mum.
I saw her.
I know, baby, I know.
I'm gonna get you home, OK?
First they want to ask you some questions,
but you don't have to answer.
And I've got a lawyer coming.
Just tell her what happened.
No, Mum, Mum, Mum, you know
this isn't about the drugs and the squat.
Look, if it's about that boy,
just tell them.
-This is not about dobbing anyone in.
-No, it's complicated.
-Then I'll tell them what I know.
-No, no, no, Mum, you can't.
Baby, please, talk to me.
Tell me how to help you.
-You need to go now.
-What?
[whispers] I'll take care of this.
Just go.
-Scout, what are you talking about?
-Just go.
-Just go.
-No.
-Just go.
-Scout.
I said get out! I said get out! Get out!
-No. Scout, please.
-Get out!
[door opens]
[Drysdale] Time to go, Ms Lewis.
[suspenseful music]
[Saranya] How long will you keep her?
[Drysdale] Until we're finished with her.
I wanna talk to Lou Gracie.
[sighs]
He's not in today.
[phone rings]
[recording] You've reached Florence Katz.
Please leave a message.
[recorder beeps]
[Saranya] Ezra? Ezra, what's going on?
Scout's at the station.
They're not letting her go.
Ben Drysdale came to my house.
He knows you were there, but he doesn't
know about Hedwig's friend.
Ezra, please, call me as soon as you can.
[distant chatter]
[Ezra] I'm handling things.
[Gracie] Why won't you let me--
Think it through, Lou.
You've gotta think it through.
You can't let Drysdale get away with this.
What you did wasn't a crime.
Bluff him!
[Octavia] Yeah, it's not that simple,
Ezra.
I have hard evidence against him
on the drugs, on Mulvaney.
I've got a witness
who's willing to speak.
-Lou, you've just gotta tell him.
-What?
I knew what Drysdale was doing.
-What?
-Not everything. And I didn't ask.
-He paid me off.
-Ah, fuck, Lou.
-Ezra, what's going on?
-What are you doing here?
-Uh, you, uh, you need to go.
-No.
-No, please!
-No! You need to tell me what's going on.
Scout's at the police station
scared to death.
What the hell are you playing at?
You need to tell them
where you're hiding Cam.
He's the witness?
-Gracie, just listen to me.
-Where is he?
-Listen to me.
-Tell me where he is!
-What the hell's gotten into you?
-Tell me where he is!
-Get a grip!
-Lou!
-Get a hold of yourself!
-Lou, fuckin' you promised me!
It's private. Let them sort it out.
[Octavia] Fuck!
If you leave,
don't you ever come back here.
[sighs]
Please go.
I promise I'll take care of Scout.
[gentle music]
[sighs]
[door slams]
[Man] I'll look after you.
I'll look after both of you.
How would you do that?
It's not even yours.
I don't care about that.
Please, all I care about is you.
[sighs]
[engine starts]
[seagulls call]
[tyres screech]
Mrs Katz.
It's OK. I'm good friends
with your son, Ezra.
-Ezra?
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
-Yeah. Can I help you?
I have to get to Maurice.
Been out on a bit of an adventure today,
Mrs Katz?
I am Florence Amelia Katz.
Yeah. Can I just, um?
You've been taking things from the quarry.
That's alright. Let's go put it back, eh?
No, I want Ezra.
Me too. Let's go find your boy.
He never comes home.
Well, don't worry.
It's a mother's job to teach her kids
not to need her anymore.
[ominous music]
[engine roars]
[suspenseful music]
[engine rumbles]
[engine stops]
[Ezra yelling]
[muffled arguing]
[Ezra] Where's my mother?
-[Cam] I don't know. She just left.
-Mate, I told you to watch her!
Yeah, but I was taking a fucking piss.
She was gone.
Ezra, what are you doing?
Why are you protecting him?
-Did you kill Hedwig?
-Hedwig's not dead.
Scout got a message.
You didn't tell him.
[sighs] Ah, fuck.
Tell me what?
They found her body.
You can ask Scout. She got a message.
-She got out.
-Cam, that's not true.
Ask her! Ask her!
They found her body.
Scout was wrong.
[quietly] I'm sorry.
-I shouldn't have
-You're sorry?
-Hey
-No, don't you fucking come close.
-Don't you fucking touch me!
-Sorry. OK, OK, OK.
[screams angrily]
[sobs]
She was so certain.
She was so
I didn't believe her,
but she had this fucking way,
she had this way, and I believed it.
Believed what?
That we would get out of
this fucking town,
that we would have a life, an actual life!
It was Drysdale.
He killed her, like he killed Tom.
He's a fucking murderer.
Just I'll tell them everything.
[Drysdale] Not a good idea.
Mum? Mum, are you OK?
She's fine.
You're a real maverick, Katz.
This your comeback, is it?
From complete fuckin' alco
to one-man police force?
You let her go.
[gasps]
[gun clicks]
[gunshots]
[metal clatters]
[both grunt]

[Ezra grunts]

No.
The prodigal son. What a fucking joke.
Not quite the homecoming
you were expecting.
[thud]
Holy shit! Fuck!
[pants]
[gasps]
Take my car.
Get as far away from here as you can.
It's what she wanted.

What, you think there's another way?
A way that doesn't involve
those two little girls
finding out that Daddy's a faggot?
[breathes heavily]
Tell me what you want.
I just want you to understand
that we're in this together.
Shit's gonna go down,
and you're gonna help clear it up.
[Octavia] Lou?
-Oh. Hi, Ben.
-Hey.
-What are you boys doing?
-Nothing.
You can go back to bed, honey. Just work.
What, at this time?
Surely it can wait till tomorrow.
[Lou sighs]
What?
What is it?
You want to tell her or should I?
You need to go.
My husband can't help you. Not anymore.
What's she on about, Grace?
Whatever trouble you're in, Ben,
you need to leave him out of it.
Yeah, maybe you should
You think you've got
all the answers, don't you?
Yeah. There's a lot you don't know
about your husband.
Like the USB?
The sex?
The drugs?
Hush money? You?
There's nothing I don't know.
My husband's a good man.
He's just made some bad mistakes,
which is more than I can say for you.
So if you'll excuse us,
we'd like you
to get the fuck out of our house!
Well this is adorable.
Yeah, look away all you like, Grace.
Whatever I'm doing, I'm doing it
to save both our arses.
See you tomorrow, boss.

Hello.
[O'Shea] Sarge, you need to
get to the beach.
We found Hedwig Shelly.
[sombre music]
[seatbelt clicks]
Constable.
Who found her?
Some bloke who was fishing early,
around 6:30.
[Drysdale] Give us a minute.
Hey.
Last time you were in a bit of a rush
to get away, hey?
We've just got a couple of questions, um,
did you wanna answer 'em here
or back at the station?
Station it is, then.
Don't touch me.
-Don't fucking touch me.
-Sarge, we bringing her in?
-Ah, very perceptive, Constable.
-Shouldn't I call her mum?
Nah, not just yet.
I'll take her. I'll get her processed,
have her ready when you come in.
I'll deal with her.
You've got unfinished business here.
Why don't I drive her to the station
first, then you--
I said I'll deal with her.
[engine starts]
[sinister music]
[music intensifies]
Friendship's a funny thing.
You think you know someone, then
You reckon Hedwig knew
what you were gonna do to her that night?
I didn't kill her.
Well, you were the last one to see her.
Ah, maybe it wasn't you,
maybe it was someone else.
[Scout breathes heavily]
Someone like Cam?
[whimpers]
I know you know where he is.
[Scout gasps]
You know, our first year on the force, uh,
some lady just went (mimics falling sound effect) right over the top.
Never did find out if she
[clicks tongue]
topped herself or, uh, or
something more sinister.
Which is a real shame for the daughter
that she left behind, you know?
Whoa!
[Scout cries out]
[Drysdale laughs]
Imagine that.
Your own mum, little mummy
smashed up against the rocks.
Yuck.
[Scout breathes heavily]
Is there anything you want to say to me?
Take me back to the fuckin' station.
They're expecting me.
[gasps]
[O'Shea] Where have you been?
Tell me, Constable. What do we know
about the cause of Miss Shelly's death?
We won't get the full report
until midday tomorrow.
Go on, give us a hint.
That's an order, Constable.
Coroner says it's going to be
hard to determine.
She was submerged for a while.
-Interview room free?
-What are the charges?
Resisting arrest, assaulting an officer,
fleeing a crime scene.
What?
We had a little run-in at the squat.
She's a little pit bull, this one.
-I never fuckin' touched you.
-Evidence says otherwise.
Where's Gracie?
-He's not in today.
-Why?
'Cause he called in sick.
You can't keep me here forever.
I know my rights.
I don't want to keep you here forever,
just long enough.
Then you can go home to Mummy
and take your chances.
I know who you are.
They don't, but I do.
Good.
Then you know to be afraid.
[eerie music]
[door slams]
[phone rings]
Hello. Detective Katz' phone.
Hello.
[call disconnects]
Hey, where's Katz?
Uh, don't know. He was racing out
when I got here this morning.
Where was he going?
Some sort of family emergency.
He finished that archiving, though.
What archiving?
[grunts]
[music intensifies]
[suspenseful music]
[door closes]
What were you doing in there?
Nothing.
Her mum's inside. She wanted to see her.
How did she know she was here?
Get back to your desk.
[Scout] No. I said go!
Get out!
Get out! Get out, get out, get out!
Get out, Mum!
Time to go, Ms Lewis.
[Saranya] What did you say to her?
Why won't she speak to me?
I could ask you the same thing, Ms Lewis.
-How long will you keep her?
-Until we're finished with her.
I don't know what you're after,
but my daughter is not a criminal.
Yeah, well,
that's what all the mothers say.
Facts remain the same.
We raided the squat and she ran.
Well, I would too
if the police barged in on me.
Did you want to lodge a formal complaint?
I wanna talk to Lou Gracie.
Mmm, yeah he's not in today.

[recorder beeps]
[Saranya] Ezra? Ezra, what's going on?
Scout's at the station.
They're not letting her go.
Ben Drysdale came to my house.
He knows you were there, but he doesn't
know about Hedwig's friend.
Ezra, please, call me as soon as you can.
[recorder beeps]

[Huck] Saranya.
Saranya, do you want to
turn that off, please.
Well uh, thank you both so much
for your time.
Mmm.
What the hell was that about?
[whispers] I saw her. I saw Scout.
-Where?
-Just now. She was outside.
-Then why didn't you tell him?
-Why the fuck did you?
Where are you going, baby?
She needs me.
No, I need you. The baby needs you.
-It's late.
-So go to bed.
-She's not here.
-I saw her.
No, you didn't see her.
You never see her.
Not the real one. She's ruining us.
She's tearing us apart.
What are you talking about?
I need you to open your eyes for our baby.
We were great before Scout came back.
We were better than great.
-We were a family.
-Scout is my family!
What the fuck?!
She treats you like shit.
She treated Hedwig like shit.
Face it. Your daughter
is a total fucking cunt.
Go!
Pack your shit and leave.
[unsettling music]
You're fucking kidding me!
Scout!
[sobs]
[phone rings]
[grunts]
Scout.
[sighs]
[phone continues to ring]
Hello?
[O'Shea] Ms Lewis?
Yes.
It's Constable O'Shea.
What's happened?
We found Hedwig Shelly's body.
We need you to come to the station.
Scout's here.
[eerie music]
[crow calls]
[Saranya] Huck. Have you seen him?
No. Can I help?
There's something I wanna tell him,
that's all.
You're pregnant, aren't you?
[laughs]
-You look happy.
-I am happy.
So, it's a good thing?
Yes. Yes, why wouldn't it be?
I don't know. Some people
aren't cut out to be parents.
I don't mean you.
Hedwig, if there's something
you want to talk to me about, I'm here.
You know that, don't you?
You can tell me anything.
Anything?
It'll be between you and me,
no-one else.
More secrets.
Anyway, you're a great mum. Obviously.
[Saranya laughs]
I'm sure Scout would disagree.
She wouldn't.
You won't tell her?
I haven't even told Huck yet.
Your body, your choice.
Go on. Live a little.
I won't tell.
[giggles]
[laughs]
[squeals]

[squeals]
[handbrake creaks]
[seatbelt clicks]
[Saranya] Where's my daughter?
Where is she?
She's OK. She's fine.
Look, the best thing that you can do is--
I want to see her.
We just need her
to answer a few questions.
I want to see my daughter.
[door opens]
Scout!
Mum.
I saw her.
I know, baby, I know.
I'm gonna get you home, OK?
First they want to ask you some questions,
but you don't have to answer.
And I've got a lawyer coming.
Just tell her what happened.
No, Mum, Mum, Mum, you know
this isn't about the drugs and the squat.
Look, if it's about that boy,
just tell them.
-This is not about dobbing anyone in.
-No, it's complicated.
-Then I'll tell them what I know.
-No, no, no, Mum, you can't.
Baby, please, talk to me.
Tell me how to help you.
-You need to go now.
-What?
[whispers] I'll take care of this.
Just go.
-Scout, what are you talking about?
-Just go.
-Just go.
-No.
-Just go.
-Scout.
I said get out! I said get out! Get out!
-No. Scout, please.
-Get out!
[door opens]
[Drysdale] Time to go, Ms Lewis.
[suspenseful music]
[Saranya] How long will you keep her?
[Drysdale] Until we're finished with her.
I wanna talk to Lou Gracie.
[sighs]
He's not in today.
[phone rings]
[recording] You've reached Florence Katz.
Please leave a message.
[recorder beeps]
[Saranya] Ezra? Ezra, what's going on?
Scout's at the station.
They're not letting her go.
Ben Drysdale came to my house.
He knows you were there, but he doesn't
know about Hedwig's friend.
Ezra, please, call me as soon as you can.
[distant chatter]
[Ezra] I'm handling things.
[Gracie] Why won't you let me--
Think it through, Lou.
You've gotta think it through.
You can't let Drysdale get away with this.
What you did wasn't a crime.
Bluff him!
[Octavia] Yeah, it's not that simple,
Ezra.
I have hard evidence against him
on the drugs, on Mulvaney.
I've got a witness
who's willing to speak.
-Lou, you've just gotta tell him.
-What?
I knew what Drysdale was doing.
-What?
-Not everything. And I didn't ask.
-He paid me off.
-Ah, fuck, Lou.
-Ezra, what's going on?
-What are you doing here?
-Uh, you, uh, you need to go.
-No.
-No, please!
-No! You need to tell me what's going on.
Scout's at the police station
scared to death.
What the hell are you playing at?
You need to tell them
where you're hiding Cam.
He's the witness?
-Gracie, just listen to me.
-Where is he?
-Listen to me.
-Tell me where he is!
-What the hell's gotten into you?
-Tell me where he is!
-Get a grip!
-Lou!
-Get a hold of yourself!
-Lou, fuckin' you promised me!
It's private. Let them sort it out.
[Octavia] Fuck!
If you leave,
don't you ever come back here.
[sighs]
Please go.
I promise I'll take care of Scout.
[gentle music]
[sighs]
[door slams]
[Man] I'll look after you.
I'll look after both of you.
How would you do that?
It's not even yours.
I don't care about that.
Please, all I care about is you.
[sighs]
[engine starts]
[seagulls call]
[tyres screech]
Mrs Katz.
It's OK. I'm good friends
with your son, Ezra.
-Ezra?
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
-Yeah. Can I help you?
I have to get to Maurice.
Been out on a bit of an adventure today,
Mrs Katz?
I am Florence Amelia Katz.
Yeah. Can I just, um?
You've been taking things from the quarry.
That's alright. Let's go put it back, eh?
No, I want Ezra.
Me too. Let's go find your boy.
He never comes home.
Well, don't worry.
It's a mother's job to teach her kids
not to need her anymore.
[ominous music]
[engine roars]
[suspenseful music]
[engine rumbles]
[engine stops]
[Ezra yelling]
[muffled arguing]
[Ezra] Where's my mother?
-[Cam] I don't know. She just left.
-Mate, I told you to watch her!
Yeah, but I was taking a fucking piss.
She was gone.
Ezra, what are you doing?
Why are you protecting him?
-Did you kill Hedwig?
-Hedwig's not dead.
Scout got a message.
You didn't tell him.
[sighs] Ah, fuck.
Tell me what?
They found her body.
You can ask Scout. She got a message.
-She got out.
-Cam, that's not true.
Ask her! Ask her!
They found her body.
Scout was wrong.
[quietly] I'm sorry.
-I shouldn't have
-You're sorry?
-Hey
-No, don't you fucking come close.
-Don't you fucking touch me!
-Sorry. OK, OK, OK.
[screams angrily]
[sobs]
She was so certain.
She was so
I didn't believe her,
but she had this fucking way,
she had this way, and I believed it.
Believed what?
That we would get out of
this fucking town,
that we would have a life, an actual life!
It was Drysdale.
He killed her, like he killed Tom.
He's a fucking murderer.
Just I'll tell them everything.
[Drysdale] Not a good idea.
Mum? Mum, are you OK?
She's fine.
You're a real maverick, Katz.
This your comeback, is it?
From complete fuckin' alco
to one-man police force?
You let her go.
[gasps]

Not quite the homecoming

Take my car.
Get as far away from here as you can.
It's what she wanted.
