I'll call you.
Hello? Hello? Give me your phone.
What for? 'Cause I want to take a selfie.
Hurry up! How'd you find me? Just give it here.
Your son rang his girlfriend.
We traced it.
He was using Elicia's phone.
Who? Tara's friend.
Elicia? JP JP.
You've rung a lot.
Local pizza.
Supreme's awesome.
Just don't want you to think I'm dumb enough to keep important numbers on that phone.
I don't know.
You know they're going to track you on that phone.
Shut up.
Just drive.
Here you are, boys.
Track that.
I need you, Denallo, as soon as you can.
Do you know what time it is? Swift's been abducted.
By aliens? I don't think so.
And he drove off in his own car.
I haven't got the full story yet.
Where are you? I'm on my way to the safe house to check - Safe house where? Look, I need you to meet up with Bec.
OK? She's at the service station on Dove and Ferny.
Just call me when you get there.
It's work.
I have to go.
Come on.
Untie me.
Buttons.
Nebraska.
I've forgotten the safe word.
Why are we sitting here? Where's your dad? I don't know.
Something must have come up.
It's arse o'clock in the morning, T.
What could possibly - overdue library book? It's complicated.
Your dad is so NOT a uni professor.
Yeah, he is.
Nah.
He's too good-looking.
Is he a spy? No, a DJ.
He's a DJ and he needed to go play some deep house.
Stop, OK? Mitchell, it's Mum.
If you get this, please call me.
Mum, what do we do about Elicia? What about her? She's asking questions and - She was supposed to be home hours ago.
Her mum's probably freaking out.
You just thought of this? No, I Listen.
It's because of you two that we're here right now.
I know.
I know! I What did you see? What? Was someone in the car with him? What did you see? I didn't see anything.
Honest.
I feel sick.
Hey, what's happening? Speak.
Good, good, nurse.
Speak.
Who told you I was a nurse? Shakespeare.
We're doing it at speech night.
If we ever get to speech night.
We're going soon.
We just had some car trouble.
Can I tell you something? I love your family.
Truly.
I'm not the one, Stolz.
Anyone's talking to the cops, it's Nils.
You squealed like a dog.
That's a mixed metaphor.
Pigs squeal.
Dogs bark.
Mix 'em up - mixed metaphor.
What are you? A professor? What did you tell the cops? Not a word.
I did tell them you were a paedophile.
Hey.
Oi.
I'm the one with the gun.
You're the one who stabbed me, yeah? Got me in the back, you gutless toad.
Nah.
Don't know nothing about that.
How much you get for that? Huh? Didn't they pay you? Is this you trying to close the deal? They paid.
Five grand.
Cash up front.
Whoa! Five grand! Stolz.
You don't come cheap, do ya? Just shut up and drive.
You want to know why I did it? Why I ran? 'Cause my friends, who I protected, were trying to kill me.
I don't care! They tried it on me.
They murdered Bobby Chisel.
They'll kill you too.
Bobby Chisel was a dog, alright? He'd been talking to the cops.
Bollocks.
He knew about the deals.
That's why they shot him.
No, no, no.
He knew about the girls.
That's why they knocked Bobby.
Girls? What girls? Don't even pretend like you don't know.
She's not here.
She must be.
There is no sign of her.
I bet it was a domestic.
She mouths off, he smacks her round, drives away.
I don't think so.
I don't think Lincoln's that person.
Look at the time.
It's peak hour for that sort of stuff.
What are they doing out this late anyway? I believe they're adults, Denallo.
If you really think someone got to him, you need to make some calls.
It's way out of your jurisdiction.
Just do a sweep of the area and keep a lookout for the car.
Then I'll, ah, head your way.
What's the address? OK.
Don't write this down.
Hello? Oi! Hey! I got him! I got the dog! Koz? Can you hear me? Cops can hear ya.
Say your name.
Go on.
Kosta Krilich.
12 Waterview Crescent.
Idiot! You think he's going to talk on the phone? It's his burner.
Mate? Koz, are you there? Stolz, I told you, I No, listen.
Listen.
I've got him.
He's here.
Go, speak.
Kosta? Congratulations.
I heard you called him Jaxxon.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What do you think? I don't know.
Jaxxon Who the fuck's Jaxxon? How'd you spell it? I bet you spelled it weird.
Two 'x'es.
J-A-X-X-O-N.
Is that code? Hey, Koz.
Do you remember Div's car? The wagon? Yeah.
We're in one.
No shit.
I know what you're asking.
You're asking, 'How many airbags does it have?' Does it even have airbags? Troy You've got to ask yourself .
.
'Do I feel lucky?' Huh? No! Do ya? What's going on? You scared the shit out of me, Wokka! What's this? I thought I heard someone trying to break in, so And you were going to saute them in olive oil? No, I was gonna smash 'em over the head with it.
Hm, well, it takes a certain kind of something.
Pinder.
Hey.
You know what time it is?! Sorry, I John? What's happening? Lincoln's missing.
We think - We don't know exactly.
It's possible he's been discovered.
Where's Bec? I just spoke to her.
She's on her way.
How, um How did they know where he was? Dunno.
Don't know the full story yet.
I'm sure you must know some information.
I mean you're the dude with all - Mitch.
You need to keep cool.
What? Hey.
Listen to him.
Stay calm until we know for sure.
There's someone out front.
Oh, Mum, what - Mitchell, I've been calling you.
My phone died.
What's happened? We crashed a party.
It was fucking flagrant.
Excuse the Dutch.
Where's Dad? He's, um I don't know.
Tara, why don't you go for some blankets and everything.
I'll be up in a second.
Mitch, it's late.
You should be in bed.
Just gonna put the kettle on.
Bed? What? You just gonna act like this is all normal? I am, yeah.
Just go help Tara set up the spare bed.
We don't have a spare bed.
Well, improvise.
Come on.
Please.
I have, like, no idea what is happening.
Welcome to the Swift family.
No! You don't have the balls.
You alright, mate? You alright? Whoa, man! You OK? There's an alert on the car.
We're doing everything we can.
How did they know where we were? From your side? Tell me exactly what happened.
I told you already.
We came outside, the car drove off.
I'm gonna need your phone.
Yours and the kids.
What for? So I can get rid of them.
What if he calls? If he calls, we'll know.
First and foremost, we have to keep this location safe.
Pinder.
Hang on.
Can you round up those phones? Yep.
I've been around the block four times.
Not a leaf out of place.
Are you sure you weren't seen? I know how to do my job.
This is going to blow up big time if you don't find him.
Rebecca.
Sorry, Wok.
All this drama in your house.
Surrender your phone.
Huh? If John told you to do something, you should do it.
That's my advice.
Just from my experience.
From your experience? I used to be Pinder.
In fact, I was his boss.
Before I retired.
You're a cop? Don't give up, Bec.
I'm gonna take this, OK? Put it down.
No, but seriously.
Wok.
My daughter has this number.
It's the only one she's got.
Why don't you go have a drink? Tara, I know you're in there.
Come on.
Tara! T-swizzle, come on! Hey.
You want me to sleep in your room? Listen, I, um I never borrowed your phone.
I don't think that's true.
You tell anyone .
.
I'll kill you.
No, you won't.
Give me the whole story.
Come on.
What's up with your dad? Mitch, Tara's told me most of it already.
No, Mitch.
It's not true.
I haven't said anything.
Some friend you are.
It's not my fault! Tell me what's up or I'll invent some unholy shit about both of you.
We're in witness protection.
Mitch.
Our dad's a criminal.
He was.
Oh, my God! That is awesome! Mitch.
What does it matter? He's dead by now.
I walked out of the door.
I looked, holding Elicia.
She was sick.
We were walking towards the car.
Had you been fighting? With Lincoln? No.
No.
It's not my fault, OK? I'm sorry.
It might have been Daniel in the car.
Who's Daniel? Just this guy from the party.
I don't know, I think it might You think or you know? I don't know.
I don't know.
He might have escaped from Queensland.
Danny Stolz.
You were out with him? It's not my fault, Mum.
- Who's fault was it? - I don't know.
I don't know.
I didn't realise.
I didn't I'm sorry.
Take these.
Get rid of them.
Darmody.
What Whose Both of the kids' and Tara's friend as well.
I can't get Bec to hand over, but that's a start.
What are you doing here? At the moment, I'm doing your job for you, so nothing's changed.
Scan them first.
Tell Blake to pull the call history.
Blake quit two years ago.
Well, whoever took over.
I thought you were dead.
I am some days.
On your shoulder.
Looks like drool.
Get rid of those.
I'll steal Bec's if I get a chance.
Won't tell Pinder I'll tell Pinder.
Hurry back.
Honestly, I've told you everything.
Once more, to get it straight.
The bloke at the party His name was Daniel.
That's all - Enough, Pinder.
She needs to go to bed.
Now go on.
See if you can get some sleep.
Goodnight, Tara.
'Night.
Hey, sweetheart.
It's not your fault.

None of this is your fault.
Your dad and me, we're to blame, OK? No-one else.
No, but what if Don't even think about it, OK? Just try and get some sleep, OK? I'll be up in a minute.
What? Someone owned up to something.
I've never seen that before.
Have you got kids? One.
Brand new.
- Hello? - Rebecca? Rebecca Swift? It's Julianne Felton, Elicia's mother.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, right.
Look, I've just checked on Elicia and Tara and they're not here.
Um I'm so worried.
I'm about to call the police.

What? They're here.
Both of them.
You're kidding me.
Thank God.
I felt sick.
Yeah, yeah.
No, they're here.

They just arrived.
They needed a textbook and they didn't want to wake you, so Well, that's ridiculous! Yeah.
No, I read them the riot act and they're grounded.
Both of them.
Absolutely.
Well, I'm mortified.
Truly.
Look, I'll come and get Elicia now.
No, I just sent them to bed.
So we can drop her off tomorrow.
You're coming tomorrow night? Sorry? Speech night at the school.

Yeah, definitely.
I'll, um I'll see you there.
Tara's friend? Her mother.

Hey.
Everything OK? G'day, Bec.
What's up? They found the car.
It had been in an accident.
Is it Troy? Is he OK? One occupant.
Male.
No ID yet.
He's alive - supposedly.
One occupant? So far as we know.
There's been conflicting reports.
Well, can we go? Can we go now? Hold on.
I'll catch a taxi if I have to.
They've taken him to hospital.
We don't know which.
We don't know who the person is yet.
It's him.
I bet you it's him.
Until we get a positive ID Apparently the car smashed into a pole and whoever it is I think they're pretty knocked around.
Come here.
What else? First report said one fatality.
What about the car? I think it's a write-off.
I mean, can we keep it out of the system? It's a bit late for that now, but the rego and the number plate should be a dead end hopefully.
We've got a leak.
Somewhere.
First the Chisel hit.
Now this.
Don't look at me.
I'm not.
You kind of are.
You always have been.
No.
I look at everyone like that.
I don't trust anyone.
That's pretty negative.
Negative's good.
Stay negative .
.
and you're never disappointed.
What the Hey, Pinder.
You look like shit.
Oh, my God.
Come on.
Sit here.
Careful.
OK.
Wokka! How's it hanging? You know they designed the Wok-out laws for people like you.
How did you get here? Hired a car.
Short-term rental.
We should get that moved.
Babe, you've got to get rid of the phones.
Yours, the kids'.
Been there.
Done that.
Bec hasn't.
You gotta ditch it.
Yeah, alright.
And like NOW.
The phones are how they found us.
What about Brianna? She's been given my number.
Who's Brianna? Well, it's bad luck.
She's gonna call.
Who? Who are we talking about? Nobody.
It doesn't matter.
Nobody? If this person's got your number We'll contact her somehow, OK? We'll - we'll get Pinder to find her.
Just give him your phone.
It was Danny Stolz.
What happened? We did a little sightseeing.
Is Stolz alive? I hope not.
But you better find him before I Here.
Show me.
Show me.
I'm OK.
I'm OK.
I - I need a beer.
Dad! Hey, sweetheart.
Oh, my God! Hey, darlin'.
Hi.
You're bleeding.
No, I'm - I'm fine.
Here.
Show me.
Show me.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
You need an ambulance.
Pinder, you call an ambulance.
OK, but if he goes to hospital No.
I'm not going to hospital.
I just need a beer.
Honest, that's all I need.
One beer.
I'm dry as a lizard.
What's going on? Dad.
He's back.
What happened? He's alive.
He's demanding beer.
Wow, he's like a god.
Why don't you go down there? You know you want to.
Mitch.
Take it easy with that.
It's not for me.
He's weak enough as it is.
We need to get him to a doctor, but he's refusing.
Well .
.
you know my feelings about doctors.
It's well-documented.
I thought you might know somebody.
What about YOUR mate? Don't be obtuse.
You've got a friend in the medical profession.
How do you even know about that? I watch and learn.
So call him.
I can't.
Mum! Mum! Hey, hey, hey.
Here.
Give him some air.
Yo.
Hey, it's me, Bec - Maree.
Yeah? I need a favour.
It's, um .
.
it's an emergency.
Well, I already gave you a grand.
It's Troy.
He's been shot.
What? Please, Ash.
You have to help.
I'm begging.
Oh How can you even look at that? Well, it cures a hangover.
You'll see.
He's alive.
Alive and safe and well.
Yeah, he really sounds it.
Hold him still.
I'm trying.
This is nuts.
He should be under proper anaesthetic.
It's too late for that.
Come on.
Just think of it as revenge.
How long will he be out for? Oh, a couple of hours.
I gave him a pretty hefty dose.
He'll be alright.
Do you think? He's not the one I'm worried about.
Maree your husband just got shot.
You can't go to the hospital.
There are weird dudes in your house.
Are they gangsters? It's complicated.
Complicated? It's nuts, is what it is.
You have to get out of here.
I I can't.
Why? What? Look, come to my place.
You can stay, get yourself sorted.
I will - I will shout you a room somewhere.
It's not like I - Take the kids with you.
Look, I don't know what the hell is going on in there, but that is no place for them.
Hey, my kids are fine! Ash, I I appreciate everything.
Seriously.
But what? I'm dismissed now? No.
No.
You want to stay here, play the gangster's wife? If you'd just stop judging me for five seconds.
I just pulled a bullet out of your husband.
I'll pay you for that.
OK, I'll pay you.
I'll find some way to Like that's the point.
Ash, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have gotten you involved.

Both of us.
She's in there.
Waiting for ya.
Go on.
Hello.
I am Cindy.
Hello.
I'm Candy.
Pleased to meet you.
Hi.
I'm Xan.

You're Harriet.
Actually, I'm Harriet.
Hi, Zac.
Piss off.
You're not even female.
I'm post-op.
Gender reassignment.
That's not real.
No penis.
You're next in line.
Yeah.
There's a lot of stuff he hasn't told you.
Xan? Yeah.
Don't stop.
Keep going.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Who's paying for this? It's on the house.
Pinder.
Pinder! PINDER! Hey.
Whoa! Whoa! Just lie down.
You've got stitches.
Drink some water.
Come on! Come here! You .
.
are a dead man.
Koz! Get out of the way.
Think! Three two .
.
one.
Wait! Get her out of here.
Go! Put her in the car.
Now! And then what? Lincoln? And then I took her out to the car and I calmed her down.
Calmed her down? Oh, that's nice.
With what? A hot chocolate? Back rub? I didn't hurt her.
Where was Koz? In the house with Toop.
I figured it was some kind of Croatian sandwich.
A what? You know, two Dubrovniks and one girl.
Come on.
It's OK.
It's cool.
Garrett! Garrett! Garrett! No! No! No! No! No! No! Garrett! Garrett! Come on! It's OK.
Garrett.
Shh! Please! Please! Please! Garrett! What are you doing? Get in the front.
What about her? Just drive.
Hurry up! And then we went to Southport, to a high-rise.
I could show you where it is, but there's like 40 million apartments.
1103 Brighton Parade.
Apartment 11B.
Rented in the name of JD Krilich.
Bec's mum.
And then what? My mother-in-law Makes no - she wouldn't.
Look, she doesn't have anything to do with it.
I know that.
What happened next? I went down the beach front .
.
smoked cigarettes.
You didn't go back to Toop's house? Well, I was going to, but what if someone had called the cops? What if? The man was lying there bleeding to death.
You heard gunshots, for Christ's sakes.
I just figured Koz had shot the wall or the rug.
But I didn't think he'd kill him.
No.
'Cause Koz is a Buddhist.
We were mates, Pinder.
I thought He wasn't This is version five.
I'm telling the truth.
How about, 'Your mate shot Garrett Toop and you helped bury him'? Toop was alive when I left that place, I swear to God.
Yeah, 'cause of the sacred oath, that means something with people like you.
Why now? Why tell the truth now? Because I saw that girl Xan at the uni.
Stolz said something in the car.
About About what? Lincoln? This is not about drugs, is it? What did Stolz say? He said Chisel knew about the girls.
Meaning what? Maybe they're running some .
.
escort thing illegally.
They're trafficking women.
No.
No way.
Sex workers.
Thai, Chinese.
They're bought in by a syndicate and they're put into brothels.
Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane.
'They'? Who's they? A syndicate.
I told you.
They're put on dodgy contracts that are never paid off.
And Nils is part of this? Nils .
.
and Koz.
They're the Queensland connection.
And Xan? Xan Siao Yu was trying to escape and Garrett Toop was helping her and then .
.
he got a visit from you and Koz.
Yeah, but Toop, he's a low-life.
He's an ice addict.
He's no hero.
Toop was paid to drive the girls interstate.
That's where he met Xan and fell for her, presumably.
Fuck.
He was trying to hide her.
You know nothing about this? I We were bringing in some pills and some coke It's the same networks, here and overseas - drugs, trafficking - it's the same people, Lincoln.
You worked for them.
I didn't.
I didn't know.
Knock, knock.
You feeling any better? I think he is.
I think he's feeling a lot better.
Each one of our students is an individual.
Each one has his or her own talents, his or her own skills.
Every student in this room has a uniqueness that makes them special.
And tonight we rejoice in that uniqueness.
Later on, we'll get to see some of those talents on display, but first, let me say how thrilled I am and how privileged I feel to be working with this particular group of young men and women.
Thank you.

Brianna.
We gave her up for adoption.
She's made contact.
She wants to meet us.
Who's watching us? They're listening.
They tap your phone, record conversations It's not true.
OK? And you? Lay off for a second.
That's an order.
Christ! Should you even be calling me? I thought you weren't supposed to.
Nah, it's OK.
It's not my phone.
That'll be $10.
I was prank-calling a friend.
Can't do it off my phone.
Write down this number.
It's a Roundtown account.
Look at this.
Ew! He's kind of hot.
Can he get us into Pyro? You're kidding.
I'm not.
Your brother tried to have me killed.
That's who we're running from.
Go.
Go, go, go.

Troy! Lincoln! They've got him.
They just drove off.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Slow down.
I don't know.
They just drove off.
I couldn't see.
I think there was someone in the car with him.
Where are you? Um at a servo.
Hey, get back inside.
No, Mum, the man at the counter Go back inside and stay there.
You can't use a phone near the pump.
Well, tell them that - I'm on the phone to Pinder, just Go inside! Hello, Pinder.
Yeah, look.
Where exactly are you? Dove Street and Ferny Road.
It's a 5 Fives Fuel.
I just came out of the door and he'd driven off.
Alright.
Just stay put and I'll be there.
Stay here? What if they come back? I've got Tara with me.
Just wait inside and I'll get someone there.
- Hello? Hello? - Is that Maree? Who is this? Ah, it's Brianna.
I'm your daughter.
Sorry.
It's really late.
You're asleep.
No.
No, I'm not.
I Hi.
I kept chickening out, but then .
.
I finally got the courage to Yeah, right.
I I I Wow, I can't believe it.
This is Wow! How are you? I'm OK.
Um Are you out somewhere? There's a lot of noise.
Ah Brianna, could I, um Could I call you back? I If you give me your number I'll call you soon.
I'm so sorry.
I'll call you.
Hello? Hello? Give me your phone.
What for? 'Cause I want to take a selfie.
Hurry up! How'd you find me? Just give it here.
Your son rang his girlfriend.
We traced it.
He was using Elicia's phone.
Who? Tara's friend.
Elicia? JP JP.
You've rung a lot.
Local pizza.
Supreme's awesome.
Just don't want you to think I'm dumb enough to keep important numbers on that phone.
I don't know.
You know they're going to track you on that phone.
Shut up.
Just drive.
Here you are, boys.
Track that.
I need you, Denallo, as soon as you can.
Do you know what time it is? Swift's been abducted.
By aliens? I don't think so.
And he drove off in his own car.
I haven't got the full story yet.
Where are you? I'm on my way to the safe house to check - Safe house where? Look, I need you to meet up with Bec.
OK? She's at the service station on Dove and Ferny.
Just call me when you get there.
It's work.
I have to go.
Come on.
Untie me.
Buttons.
Nebraska.
I've forgotten the safe word.
Why are we sitting here? Where's your dad? I don't know.
Something must have come up.
It's arse o'clock in the morning, T.
What could possibly - overdue library book? It's complicated.
Your dad is so NOT a uni professor.
Yeah, he is.
Nah.
He's too good-looking.
Is he a spy? No, a DJ.
He's a DJ and he needed to go play some deep house.
Stop, OK? Mitchell, it's Mum.
If you get this, please call me.
Mum, what do we do about Elicia? What about her? She's asking questions and - She was supposed to be home hours ago.
Her mum's probably freaking out.
You just thought of this? No, I Listen.
It's because of you two that we're here right now.
I know.
I know! I What did you see? What? Was someone in the car with him? What did you see? I didn't see anything.
Honest.
I feel sick.
Hey, what's happening? Speak.
Good, good, nurse.
Speak.
Who told you I was a nurse? Shakespeare.
We're doing it at speech night.
If we ever get to speech night.
We're going soon.
We just had some car trouble.
Can I tell you something? I love your family.
Truly.
I'm not the one, Stolz.
Anyone's talking to the cops, it's Nils.
You squealed like a dog.
That's a mixed metaphor.
Pigs squeal.
Dogs bark.
Mix 'em up - mixed metaphor.
What are you? A professor? What did you tell the cops? Not a word.
I did tell them you were a paedophile.
Hey.
Oi.
I'm the one with the gun.
You're the one who stabbed me, yeah? Got me in the back, you gutless toad.
Nah.
Don't know nothing about that.
How much you get for that? Huh? Didn't they pay you? Is this you trying to close the deal? They paid.
Five grand.
Cash up front.
Whoa! Five grand! Stolz.
You don't come cheap, do ya? Just shut up and drive.
You want to know why I did it? Why I ran? 'Cause my friends, who I protected, were trying to kill me.
I don't care! They tried it on me.
They murdered Bobby Chisel.
They'll kill you too.
Bobby Chisel was a dog, alright? He'd been talking to the cops.
Bollocks.
He knew about the deals.
That's why they shot him.
No, no, no.
He knew about the girls.
That's why they knocked Bobby.
Girls? What girls? Don't even pretend like you don't know.
She's not here.
She must be.
There is no sign of her.
I bet it was a domestic.
She mouths off, he smacks her round, drives away.
I don't think so.
I don't think Lincoln's that person.
Look at the time.
It's peak hour for that sort of stuff.
What are they doing out this late anyway? I believe they're adults, Denallo.
If you really think someone got to him, you need to make some calls.
It's way out of your jurisdiction.
Just do a sweep of the area and keep a lookout for the car.
Then I'll, ah, head your way.
What's the address? OK.
Don't write this down.
Hello? Oi! Hey! I got him! I got the dog! Koz? Can you hear me? Cops can hear ya.
Say your name.
Go on.
Kosta Krilich.
12 Waterview Crescent.
Idiot! You think he's going to talk on the phone? It's his burner.
Mate? Koz, are you there? Stolz, I told you, I No, listen.
Listen.
I've got him.
He's here.
Go, speak.
Kosta? Congratulations.
I heard you called him Jaxxon.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What do you think? I don't know.
Jaxxon Who the fuck's Jaxxon? How'd you spell it? I bet you spelled it weird.
Two 'x'es.
J-A-X-X-O-N.
Is that code? Hey, Koz.
Do you remember Div's car? The wagon? Yeah.
We're in one.
No shit.
I know what you're asking.
You're asking, 'How many airbags does it have?' Does it even have airbags? Troy You've got to ask yourself .
.
'Do I feel lucky?' Huh? No! Do ya? What's going on? You scared the shit out of me, Wokka! What's this? I thought I heard someone trying to break in, so And you were going to saute them in olive oil? No, I was gonna smash 'em over the head with it.
Hm, well, it takes a certain kind of something.
Pinder.
Hey.
You know what time it is?! Sorry, I John? What's happening? Lincoln's missing.
We think - We don't know exactly.
It's possible he's been discovered.
Where's Bec? I just spoke to her.
She's on her way.
How, um How did they know where he was? Dunno.
Don't know the full story yet.
I'm sure you must know some information.
I mean you're the dude with all - Mitch.
You need to keep cool.
What? Hey.
Listen to him.
Stay calm until we know for sure.
There's someone out front.
Oh, Mum, what - Mitchell, I've been calling you.
My phone died.
What's happened? We crashed a party.
It was fucking flagrant.
Excuse the Dutch.
Where's Dad? He's, um I don't know.
Tara, why don't you go for some blankets and everything.
I'll be up in a second.
Mitch, it's late.
You should be in bed.
Just gonna put the kettle on.
Bed? What? You just gonna act like this is all normal? I am, yeah.
Just go help Tara set up the spare bed.
We don't have a spare bed.
Well, improvise.
Come on.
Please.
I have, like, no idea what is happening.
Welcome to the Swift family.
No! You don't have the balls.
You alright, mate? You alright? Whoa, man! You OK? There's an alert on the car.
We're doing everything we can.
How did they know where we were? From your side? Tell me exactly what happened.
I told you already.
We came outside, the car drove off.
I'm gonna need your phone.
Yours and the kids.
What for? So I can get rid of them.
What if he calls? If he calls, we'll know.
First and foremost, we have to keep this location safe.
Pinder.
Hang on.
Can you round up those phones? Yep.
I've been around the block four times.
Not a leaf out of place.
Are you sure you weren't seen? I know how to do my job.
This is going to blow up big time if you don't find him.
Rebecca.
Sorry, Wok.
All this drama in your house.
Surrender your phone.
Huh? If John told you to do something, you should do it.
That's my advice.
Just from my experience.
From your experience? I used to be Pinder.
In fact, I was his boss.
Before I retired.
You're a cop? Don't give up, Bec.
I'm gonna take this, OK? Put it down.
No, but seriously.
Wok.
My daughter has this number.
It's the only one she's got.
Why don't you go have a drink? Tara, I know you're in there.
Come on.
Tara! T-swizzle, come on! Hey.
You want me to sleep in your room? Listen, I, um I never borrowed your phone.
I don't think that's true.
You tell anyone .
.
I'll kill you.
No, you won't.
Give me the whole story.
Come on.
What's up with your dad? Mitch, Tara's told me most of it already.
No, Mitch.
It's not true.
I haven't said anything.
Some friend you are.
It's not my fault! Tell me what's up or I'll invent some unholy shit about both of you.
We're in witness protection.
Mitch.
Our dad's a criminal.
He was.
Oh, my God! That is awesome! Mitch.
What does it matter? He's dead by now.
I walked out of the door.
I looked, holding Elicia.
She was sick.
We were walking towards the car.
Had you been fighting? With Lincoln? No.
No.
It's not my fault, OK? I'm sorry.
It might have been Daniel in the car.
Who's Daniel? Just this guy from the party.
I don't know, I think it might You think or you know? I don't know.
I don't know.
He might have escaped from Queensland.
Danny Stolz.
You were out with him? It's not my fault, Mum.
- Who's fault was it? - I don't know.
I don't know.
I didn't realise.
I didn't I'm sorry.
Take these.
Get rid of them.
Darmody.
What Whose Both of the kids' and Tara's friend as well.
I can't get Bec to hand over, but that's a start.
What are you doing here? At the moment, I'm doing your job for you, so nothing's changed.
Scan them first.
Tell Blake to pull the call history.
Blake quit two years ago.
Well, whoever took over.
I thought you were dead.
I am some days.
On your shoulder.
Looks like drool.
Get rid of those.
I'll steal Bec's if I get a chance.
Won't tell Pinder I'll tell Pinder.
Hurry back.
Honestly, I've told you everything.
Once more, to get it straight.
The bloke at the party His name was Daniel.
That's all - Enough, Pinder.
She needs to go to bed.
Now go on.
See if you can get some sleep.
Goodnight, Tara.
'Night.
Hey, sweetheart.
It's not your fault.
It's not your fault.
None of this is your fault.
Your dad and me, we're to blame, OK? No-one else.
No, but what if Don't even think about it, OK? Just try and get some sleep, OK? I'll be up in a minute.
What? Someone owned up to something.
I've never seen that before.
Have you got kids? One.
Brand new.
- Hello? - Rebecca? Rebecca Swift? It's Julianne Felton, Elicia's mother.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, right.
Look, I've just checked on Elicia and Tara and they're not here.
Um I'm so worried.
I'm about to call the police.
No, don't.
They're here.
What? They're here.
Both of them.
You're kidding me.
Thank God.
I felt sick.
Yeah, yeah.
No, they're here.
They're here.
They just arrived.
They needed a textbook and they didn't want to wake you, so Well, that's ridiculous! Yeah.
No, I read them the riot act and they're grounded.
Both of them.
Absolutely.
Well, I'm mortified.
Truly.
Look, I'll come and get Elicia now.
No, I just sent them to bed.
So we can drop her off tomorrow.
You're coming tomorrow night? Sorry? Speech night at the school.
I mean, at least let me apologise in person.
Right.
Yeah, definitely.
I'll, um I'll see you there.
Tara's friend? Her mother.
Wife of, um .
.
what's his name? Jeff Felton.
Not the politician? What else? Speech night at the school.
Tara's in the drama group.
We were supposed to go.
Wait.
Wait.
Wait.
Wait.
Wait here.
Hey.
Everything OK? G'day, Bec.
What's up? They found the car.
It had been in an accident.
Is it Troy? Is he OK? One occupant.
Male.
No ID yet.
He's alive - supposedly.
One occupant? So far as we know.
There's been conflicting reports.
Well, can we go? Can we go now? Hold on.
I'll catch a taxi if I have to.
They've taken him to hospital.
We don't know which.
We don't know who the person is yet.
It's him.
I bet you it's him.
Until we get a positive ID Apparently the car smashed into a pole and whoever it is I think they're pretty knocked around.
Come here.
What else? First report said one fatality.
What about the car? I think it's a write-off.
I mean, can we keep it out of the system? It's a bit late for that now, but the rego and the number plate should be a dead end hopefully.
We've got a leak.
Somewhere.
First the Chisel hit.
Now this.
Don't look at me.
I'm not.
You kind of are.
You always have been.
No.
I look at everyone like that.
I don't trust anyone.
That's pretty negative.
Negative's good.
Stay negative .
.
and you're never disappointed.
What the Hey, Pinder.
You look like shit.
Oh, my God.
Come on.
Sit here.
Careful.
OK.
Wokka! How's it hanging? You know they designed the Wok-out laws for people like you.
How did you get here? Hired a car.
Short-term rental.
We should get that moved.
Babe, you've got to get rid of the phones.
Yours, the kids'.
Been there.
Done that.
Bec hasn't.
You gotta ditch it.
Yeah, alright.
And like NOW.
The phones are how they found us.
What about Brianna? She's been given my number.
Who's Brianna? Well, it's bad luck.
She's gonna call.
Who? Who are we talking about? Nobody.
It doesn't matter.
Nobody? If this person's got your number We'll contact her somehow, OK? We'll - we'll get Pinder to find her.
Just give him your phone.
It was Danny Stolz.
What happened? We did a little sightseeing.
Is Stolz alive? I hope not.
But you better find him before I Here.
Show me.
Show me.
I'm OK.
I'm OK.
I - I need a beer.
Dad! Hey, sweetheart.
Oh, my God! Hey, darlin'.
Hi.
You're bleeding.
No, I'm - I'm fine.
Here.
Show me.
Show me.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
You need an ambulance.
Pinder, you call an ambulance.
OK, but if he goes to hospital No.
I'm not going to hospital.
I just need a beer.
Honest, that's all I need.
One beer.
I'm dry as a lizard.
What's going on? Dad.
He's back.
What happened? He's alive.
He's demanding beer.
Wow, he's like a god.
Why don't you go down there? You know you want to.
Mitch.
Take it easy with that.
It's not for me.
He's weak enough as it is.
We need to get him to a doctor, but he's refusing.
Well .
.
you know my feelings about doctors.
It's well-documented.
I thought you might know somebody.
What about YOUR mate? Don't be obtuse.
You've got a friend in the medical profession.
How do you even know about that? I watch and learn.
So call him.
I can't.
Mum! Mum! Hey, hey, hey.
Here.
Give him some air.
Yo.
Hey, it's me, Bec - Maree.
Yeah? I need a favour.
It's, um .
.
it's an emergency.
Well, I already gave you a grand.
It's Troy.
He's been shot.
What? Please, Ash.
You have to help.
I'm begging.
Oh How can you even look at that? Well, it cures a hangover.
You'll see.
He's alive.
Alive and safe and well.
Yeah, he really sounds it.
Hold him still.
I'm trying.
This is nuts.
He should be under proper anaesthetic.
It's too late for that.
Come on.
Just think of it as revenge.
How long will he be out for? Oh, a couple of hours.
I gave him a pretty hefty dose.
He'll be alright.
Do you think? He's not the one I'm worried about.
Maree your husband just got shot.
You can't go to the hospital.
There are weird dudes in your house.
Are they gangsters? It's complicated.
Complicated? It's nuts, is what it is.
You have to get out of here.
I I can't.
Why? What? Look, come to my place.
You can stay, get yourself sorted.
I will - I will shout you a room somewhere.
It's not like I - Take the kids with you.
Look, I don't know what the hell is going on in there, but that is no place for them.
Hey, my kids are fine! Ash, I I appreciate everything.
Seriously.
But what? I'm dismissed now? No.
No.
You want to stay here, play the gangster's wife? If you'd just stop judging me for five seconds.
I just pulled a bullet out of your husband.
I'll pay you for that.
OK, I'll pay you.
I'll find some way to Like that's the point.
Ash, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I shouldn't have gotten you involved.
Yeah, well, we've said that before.
Both of us.
She's in there.
Waiting for ya.
Go on.
Hello.
I am Cindy.
Hello.
I'm Candy.
Pleased to meet you.
Hi.
I'm Xan.
No, you're not.
You're Harriet.
Actually, I'm Harriet.
Hi, Zac.
Piss off.
You're not even female.
I'm post-op.
Gender reassignment.
That's not real.
No penis.
You're next in line.
Yeah.
There's a lot of stuff he hasn't told you.
Xan? Yeah.
Don't stop.
Keep going.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Who's paying for this? It's on the house.
Pinder.
Pinder! PINDER! Hey.
Whoa! Whoa! Just lie down.
You've got stitches.
Drink some water.
Come on! Come here! You .
.
are a dead man.
Koz! Get out of the way.
Think! Three two .
.
one.
Wait! Get her out of here.
Go! Put her in the car.
Now! And then what? Lincoln? And then I took her out to the car and I calmed her down.
Calmed her down? Oh, that's nice.
With what? A hot chocolate? Back rub? I didn't hurt her.
Where was Koz? In the house with Toop.
I figured it was some kind of Croatian sandwich.
A what? You know, two Dubrovniks and one girl.
Come on.
It's OK.
It's cool.
Garrett! Garrett! Garrett! No! No! No! No! No! No! Garrett! Garrett! Come on! It's OK.
Garrett.
Shh! Please! Please! Please! Garrett! What are you doing? Get in the front.
What about her? Just drive.
Hurry up! And then we went to Southport, to a high-rise.
I could show you where it is, but there's like 40 million apartments.
1103 Brighton Parade.
Apartment 11B.
Rented in the name of JD Krilich.
Bec's mum.
And then what? My mother-in-law Makes no - she wouldn't.
Look, she doesn't have anything to do with it.
I know that.
What happened next? I went down the beach front .
.
smoked cigarettes.
You didn't go back to Toop's house? Well, I was going to, but what if someone had called the cops? What if? The man was lying there bleeding to death.
You heard gunshots, for Christ's sakes.
I just figured Koz had shot the wall or the rug.
But I didn't think he'd kill him.
No.
'Cause Koz is a Buddhist.
We were mates, Pinder.
I thought He wasn't This is version five.
I'm telling the truth.
How about, 'Your mate shot Garrett Toop and you helped bury him'? Toop was alive when I left that place, I swear to God.
Yeah, 'cause of the sacred oath, that means something with people like you.
Why now? Why tell the truth now? Because I saw that girl Xan at the uni.
Stolz said something in the car.
About About what? Lincoln? This is not about drugs, is it? What did Stolz say? He said Chisel knew about the girls.
Meaning what? Maybe they're running some .
.
escort thing illegally.
They're trafficking women.
No.
No way.
Sex workers.
Thai, Chinese.
They're bought in by a syndicate and they're put into brothels.
Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane.
'They'? Who's they? A syndicate.
I told you.
They're put on dodgy contracts that are never paid off.
And Nils is part of this? Nils .
.
and Koz.
They're the Queensland connection.
And Xan? Xan Siao Yu was trying to escape and Garrett Toop was helping her and then .
.
he got a visit from you and Koz.
Yeah, but Toop, he's a low-life.
He's an ice addict.
He's no hero.
Toop was paid to drive the girls interstate.
That's where he met Xan and fell for her, presumably.
Fuck.
He was trying to hide her.
You know nothing about this? I We were bringing in some pills and some coke It's the same networks, here and overseas - drugs, trafficking - it's the same people, Lincoln.
You worked for them.
I didn't.
I didn't know.
Knock, knock.
You feeling any better? I think he is.
I think he's feeling a lot better.
Each one of our students is an individual.
Each one has his or her own talents, his or her own skills.
Every student in this room has a uniqueness that makes them special.
And tonight we rejoice in that uniqueness.
Later on, we'll get to see some of those talents on display, but first, let me say how thrilled I am and how privileged I feel to be working with this particular group of young men and women.
Thank you.
