Rescue Special Ops (2009) s02e01 Episode Script

Beer o'clock, boys.
And guess who's got first shout.
Mate, I can't do the pub tonight.
I promised the missus I'd take her out for a meal.
- Are you serious? - It's the three-year anniversary.
She's gonna have nuggets if I do another bunk.
Right, it's the three-year Sorry, what is that? Is that a thumbprint on top of your head there? Righto.
Piss off.
- Maybe.
Maybe a couple of bevies.
- Yeah! But it's not my shout.
I got the last three, mate.
What? Whatever, man.
I've got almost, like, the last 10.
- Billy's team up blasting? - Not down here, they're not.
They're up on 275.
Just go! Go, go, go, go, go, go! Go! Get outta here, quickly! Quickly! Go, go, go, go! Go! Come on.
Joe.
- Joe, are you OK, mate? - Yeah, righto, mate.
Settle down.
I'm alright.
Joe! Joey! Flats for rent.
I've already circled all the good ones.
- Thanks.
- I'm just trying to be helpful.
I can't imagine my couch is all that comfy.
The couch isn't keeping me awake.
It's you and Britney.
I swear, you guys were at it till 3am? Doing what till 3:00 in the morning? My little brother's got a very vivid imagination.
You can stay with me, Chase.
The only noise at 3am in the morning is Hamish snoring.
Spoken like a true married woman, Lara.
So, you broke up with her? I suppose you'd say it wasn't really working out for both of us.
- Right, so it was amicable.
- Amicable? - Mutual.
- Yeah, you could say that.
What's with that grin? It's been almost 40 hours since the cave-in.
Mine management don't like it, but we've been called in.
- Who's running the show down there? - You're gonna love it.
It's an old colleague of ours, Guy Hewitt.
- You gotta be kidding me.
- Afraid not, Deano.
- This should be interesting.
- I reckon.
A few extra grey hairs since I seen you last.
- A couple of extra pounds too.
- Yeah.
A few more ex-wives since then too.
I blame them for both.
So, what about you, Guy? The grass greener in the private sector, is it? I don't miss slumming it in Special Ops with you for a minute.
This is Warren Thompson.
He's the mine manager.
Vince Marchello.
You're only here so the pollies can cover their arses? Yeah, that's right.
And because there's a miner down that hole that you blokes haven't pulled out yet.
There's a briefing here in the command tent in five.
- Hey, Lara.
- Hi, Guy.
I heard on the grapevine that you got hitched.
- Yeah.
- You didn't marry back into the job? No, are you kidding? No, his name's Hamish.
- He's a lawyer.
- You always were a smart girl.
Good to see you.
- Chase.
- Guy.
He didn't look too happy to see me.
What did you expect? You did steal his girlfriend.
Yeah.
I suppose.
Translate by : Joey Cutler's at 345 metres, trapped between a 7-metre slab of quartz carbonate sulfide and 16 metres of rockfall.
Apparently they're an hour away from drilling a hole in the slab.
Yeah, we'll get a remote thermal imaging camera and medical equipment to Joey through that.
But the main focus of the rescue is on this side of the tunnel.
The second Mine Rescue team are blasting through to Joey from the other side of the cave-in.
We're about eight hours away from reaching him.
Well, isn't blasting the rockfall a bit risky? Our geologist calculates it 100% safe.
The same guy that calculated the mine safe before the cave-in? - Got a better idea? - Yeah, well, maybe.
- What's this here? - That there's an old ore pass.
Intersecting, what, three or four metres from where he's trapped? I mean, if we get in there, we can dig straight through.
- Using, what, hand machines? - Use a SIG.
Or a Panther with a hydraulic air leg.
Drill and fire.
Extend the charge holes.
Direct smaller blasts into the footwall.
- Which would take at least 24 hours.
- Still less risky, in my opinion.
The problem is we don't have 24 hours.
What we didn't tell the media is we haven't heard any tapping from Joey for three hours.
We've just gotta get him out of there ASAP.
Righto.
We stick with Mine Rescue's plan.
Let's rig up.
Assemble at the head frame in 10.
You always had a problem playing second fiddle.
Look, Guy, let's try to put our personal shit behind us and work together on this.
Or not.
Test your BAs and cap lamps.
Heidi-ho, check all the O2 gauges.
- Michelle.
- Pretty slack on the updates.
I'm getting more info off the Net.
Just came out of the debrief.
We're prepping to go down.
You know, Vince, I'd be there if I could.
This budget meeting with the new minister Sure, sure.
And you got the little fella to think about.
- This is bound to be an overnighter.
- The media will be all over this.
They're gonna tear strips off you if you're not prepared.
Michelle Just promise me you will prepare everything to the press.
- Nothing off the cuff.
- Yeah, I got it.
Good luck at the meeting.
Bye.
- Excuse me.
- Yep? I'm Tracey Cutler, Joey's wife.
Dean Gallagher.
You think what they're doing is unsafe? That they might kill Joey in trying to get to him? No, no, Mrs Cutler.
Look, Mine Rescue know exactly what they're doing.
But in there you said that They've had a lot more experience at this than I have, OK? If you get to him, can you give him this? - That's if he's even still alive.
- Yeah, sure, of course.
Fresh air base is located at the shaft or loading station.
Somebody from our team will meet you down there.
I'll be in the command tent, overseeing everything.
Remember, you are medical backup only.
Mine Rescue, not Special Ops, are doing the real work down there.
Yeah, Britney, what's up? You there? You there? Britney.
I wonder how long that will last.
Nothing will last, Chase.
Just casual.
Casual.
What, like Jordan's latest ex-girlfriend? - Here we go.
- Ex? Did you break up with her? Yeah, he kicked her to the kerb just after they had sex.
- No! - Best time to break the bad news.
When they're all high on endorphins? Well, yeah, that's if they actually orgasm, Deano.
- Which one of you is Dean Gallagher? - That would be me.
I've heard a lot about you.
Follow me, guys.
That's great.
We're just blasting rubble.
Should be through any minute.
OK, we're through.
Someone let up top know.
Surface, this is the drill site.
Team 1 have the bore hole ready, trying to contact Joey now.
Joey! Vince, this is Team 1 at the drill site.
No contact with Joey yet.
Joey, can you hear me, mate? Yeah.
- Yeah.
- He's alive.
Repeat, he is alive.
Hey? Alright, I told you.
Yeah, mate, it's me.
Joe, it's me.
You just hang in there, alright? Just hold tight, mate.
We're coming to get ya.
- Let's get a camera in there.
- Alright.
Gastrolytes and energy bars.
A light source.
Clexane in a prefilled syringe.
- And I got this from his wife.
- What does it say? - I don't know.
Haven't read it.
- Don't you think you should? Would you like it if I read Hamish's love letters? It might stir him up.
We don't want to upset him.
Jesus.
I never had you pegged for a pessimist.
Look at that.
Alright.
Go.
Drill site, this is Vince.
Be aware that Team 2 are setting fuses.
- Copy that, Vince.
- Let's do it.
Hey, Joey.
My name's Lara.
How's it going in there? How long till I'm out of here? - Not long.
How's the air in there? - Setting up the camera now.
- It's hot, but it's OK.
- Alright.
I'm pushing a cable through now, Joey.
It's a remote camera to give us a look at the space you're in.
Jordan, Heidi, I want you on the other side of the tunnel supporting the rest of the mine unit, and be careful.
I'm not happy with Team 2 blasting in here.
- On it.
- You take that crosscutter, right? - Get it around the other side.
- I just wanna get out of here.
- Me arm's killing me.
- Yeah, we're working on that, Joey.
Going as fast as we can.
Cable's in! Alright, we're connecting the cable now.
You will have vision only, no audio.
Yep, OK, that's good.
We have vision.
Thank you.
See? I told you we'd get to him? - Haven't got to him yet.
- Only a matter of time.
So much for needing help from the outside.
The first tube's got Gastrolytes and energy bars.
The second tube's got a torch and a prefilled syringe.
Now, I'm gonna get you to inject that syringe into yourself.
Hey? You want me to stick a needle into me? You'll be right, Joey.
You gotta do this for me, alright? It's got a drug designed to thin the blood and stop clotting.
What's this? The paper? That's a note from your wife, Joey.
What the hell is that? Tracey, is that from you? I gave it to one of the rescue guys.
- Not one of my men? - No.
Dean Gallagher.
Listen, in his emotional state, the last thing he needs now is a personal message, I'm sorry.
Joey.
Joey? Joey! Are you OK? I need you to tell Tracey something.
You can tell her yourself.
Tell her I said I'm sorry for everything.
OK.
Let's get you out of there, OK? Now, what I need you to do is inject that syringe for me now, alright? - I can't.
I hate needles.
- Joey, it's all good.
I hate needles too.
But this is just a small one.
By the time you feel it, it will all be over.
What am I doing? Just grab a handful of skin from your belly.
And with the other hand, grab an alco swab.
Team 2 should be around the next bend.
Look, just for the record, the sex happened after we broke up.
Break-up sex? Get your hand off it, Jordan.
Clear the tunnel! Move it! What's going on?! What happened? Another tremor.
We've got a fuse set.
Alright, that's not good.
Lara, I want you out of there! - Injecting the Clexane.
- Chase, gimme a hand.
Jordan, no! The fuse is set.
- Stop! - Come on! We've gotta go now.
No, I have to disable the fuse.
Jordan! No! No! Just another minute! - A minute! - Back, back, back! Guys! No! OK, anyone know why we lost the feed? Anyone know why we lost the feed? Was it some sort of seismic activity there? - That's just a bump from the blasting.
- That's more than a bump.
- What's going on? - No-one's answering at the site.
Have you got anyone at the loading station? - I'm not sure, Tracey, but - Is it Joey? Has something happened? Listen, I think the thing to do is maybe just step outside the tent.
- No, I don't think that's the - We know what we're doing, OK? - Can we get Mrs Cutler out of here? - Excuse me! Let me go! I want to know what's happening! - Vince Marchello.
- Yeah, Vince.
Deano, what's going on? We lost the feed.
Yeah, we've had a small cave-in.
The video cable's cut.
- Any casualties? - Lara and Chase are OK.
But Jordan and Heidi are at the other end of the tunnel.
The Mine Rescue unit's taken the main brunt of the rockfall here.
Copy that.
Hey, what's the status of Joey Cutler? Unknown.
The slab moved in the event.
The bore hole's gone.
I gotta go.
What? What? What? - Hey.
Hey, hey.
You right? - Yeah, yeah.
We dodged most of the rockfall, but it's wiped out access to the tunnel.
- Jordan, what's up? - The cap went off next to his ear.
Get him back up to the fresh air base, bring back splints.
- We need to get topside now.
- Yep.
Just make them comfortable.
Splints are on the way.
- Watch your step.
- My right ear, mate, it's ringing.
I can't hear a bloody thing.
Can you look inside and tell me if it's empty? It should not have collapsed like that.
Not if your engineering specs were correct.
- Guy, how are your teams? - Out of action.
He was right.
He said it was too dangerous and you didn't listen.
- Tracey, just calm down, would you? - You killed my husband.
Mrs Cutler, Joey's pretty well protected where he is, OK? Chances are good the new rockfall hasn't affected him.
He's got plenty of fluid and food to sustain him.
Come on, come this way.
Someone's gonna have to speak to the media before they get wind of what's going on.
- What caused the collapse? - Was it negligence? How do you know he's still alive? I'm not in a position to answer all your questions at the present time.
What I can tell you is that we are currently putting together a new strategy that will bring our trapped miner What does the strategy involve? I'll let you know that strategy as soon as we Have you been able to communicate with him? - Yes, we have been in communication - Hey.
How was your meeting? New minister, same old story.
First order of business was to slash our budget by 8%.
Hello, little man.
- What have you boys been up to? - We've been to court.
Jury came back on the Eddy van Heussen trial.
- lan! - Well, he was no problem.
- He slept like a baby.
Didn't you? - You took a baby into the court.
Yes.
Well, the verdict came back guilty.
That scumbag's gonna go away for a very long time.
Very nice.
When will you be releasing more information? If you can all just keep your skirts on a little bit longer, I will let you know this information when it comes to me.
Thank you vevy much.
- Excuse me.
- Who will take responsibility? Is it you or the mining company? Mr Marchello! Michelle.
Caught the end of your press conference.
Yeah, I thought it went pretty well.
You don't think "keep your skirts on" was a bit sexist? The new minister's a woman, remember? Vince, I think I'm gonna head down there.
lan can, um, look after James overnight.
Stop being a control freak.
I can handle this.
Guy, we don't know Joey Cutler's condition.
Even at 24 hours' drill time, this is still our quickest way to him.
- I don't like it.
- What's not to like? This old shaft's a deathtrap.
Alright? The ore pass is derelict.
With the amount of rockfall, I don't know how stable it is.
We'll use timber to spread the abutment load.
- Yep, crib the backs here, here.
- Yeah, and here.
- Propped up with wedges and jacks.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
We haven't agreed on this.
Is your team even capable of a drill and fire? Absolutely.
Team of three on the SIG, working in shifts.
Dean, Chase, Lara, you get first crack.
Alright! Send it down! Jordan.
Jordan! Start lowering the gear.
- Take it easy, Jordan.
- What? - Careful.
- Hey? Don't worry.
We've got a gas reading! - What level? - 45.
Dean, look at this.
This tunnel's supposed to be sectioned off.
The barrier pillar's been removed recently, by the look of the footwall.
It could make this whole area unstable.
There's no time to worry about that now.
There is if there's gas and we need to drill and fire.
The longer we take, the less chance of finding Joey alive.
- Is everything OK down there? - Yeah.
We're on our way.
OK.
We'll head back to the top.
The tunnel up here runs directly beside the tunnel Joey's trapped in.
Clear on gas.
Alright.
Keep going.
What do you think about this ear thing? Do you reckon it's permanent? Karma's a bitch.
Karma's a bitch.
It won't be permanent.
OK, well, I need all the Mine Rescue guys you can spare, OK? So, please.
Alright.
Thank you.
- Different stress, same job.
- Yeah.
Not for much longer, mate.
I'm out of here.
Taking up a role in management.
The company's got a copper mine in PNG.
I'm gonna have to find my own replacement soon.
How would you fancy this job? You'd be earning double what you're on now.
What, are you serious? Absolutely.
Jordan.
Jordan! Mr Thompson! - Sir! - Warren! - Warren, what happened? - There's been a crash, mate.
- What did he say? - Go on.
We got him.
Go, go, go! OK.
Come with me.
Grab him.
- Got a pulse? - Yep.
- Good.
You smell that? - Yeah, yeah.
I'll check the back.
What happened? It's all good, pal.
We're gonna get you out of here, OK? Heidi! Heidi! Heidi, I'm gonna need a hand round here! Heidi! Heidi! - I can't get any air.
- Right.
It's toxic.
Dean! Next shift! Next shift.
Dean, we can't do it all ourselves.
Hey.
Come on.
Let's go.
So, how's your headache? And your breathing? Yeah, it's getting better.
It's getting better, unlike your tinnitus.
You know, I was worried about you there for a minute.
Yeah, more like a second.
Hey.
Are you OK? Yeah, yeah.
Nothing that a good suck on some O2 couldn't fix.
Hey.
I'm OK.
That's enough, alright? OK, I'm gonna check on that comm link.
- Thompson, what's going on? - What do you mean? For starters, what's with all the sodium cyanide? Well, we use cyanide here as part of the gold-extracting process.
- Yeah, I know what it's for.
- OK.
But why were you and one of your miners lugging it down a back road with a mobile filter press? I'm the manager of this mine, Vince.
There's 30 tonne of ore to look after.
You don't think your priorities are a bit mixed up? Rescue operation or not, this is still a business.
I've gotta look after the bottom line.
You're lucky one of my crew only caught a whiff.
OK.
Comms are almost hooked up to the new drilling site.
I've also organised some more guys from Hill End with detonation experience.
They're already 1.
5 metres in.
If they stay at this rate, we'll be through by morning.
- I'll lead the next shift tonight.
- We'll lead the next one after that.
- Here.
I'll do that for ya.
- Ta.
Did you hear tapping down there? I thought I did at some point, but I just don't know.
- There's a lot of noises down there.
- Just ground shifts.
- I don't fancy Joey's chances? - Well, we're not asking you, Chase.
- I'm just saying.
- Chase.
I don't want Joey Cutler's wife hearing anyone talk like that, OK? Make sure you get some food in you.
It's gonna be a long night.
- What are you looking for? - Water.
- What? - Not 'what', water.
- Here.
- Ta.
Jordan! You know, if we ever went out, I would never let you get away with break-up sex.
I mean, not that we would go out.
I mean, everyone knows that a workplace romance is doomed from the get-go.
But imagine we did, and you wanted to live, then we'd break up before the sex, or not at all.
Does that make sense? You know what I mean? Yep.
Glad we talked.
I feel better.
Hey? Hey, bringing Joey Cutler up is what's important here, not who brings him up.
What you think I'm competing with Guy? Yeah.
You always did.
You might have been mates, but you competed over everything.
Tell Hamish I said hi.
Mind-reader.
Hey, you.
Exhausted.
Yeah, it looks like it's gonna be a late one, honey.
Mr Thompson said you heard Joey tapping.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, we did, we did.
And we tried to find you before too.
Joey wanted us to pass on a message.
He wanted to say that he was sorry for everything.
Hey.
You alright? We've been having a lot of problems, Joey and I.
I wanted to leave him.
And now this happened, I'm just so confused.
Look, Mrs Cutler, I think this is gonna turn out OK.
And maybe you can look at this as, I don't know, a second chance for you guys, yeah? Um, look, I'd better get back to work.
And you should try to get some sleep, yeah? Yeah.
You can't just sit on your hands and do nothing! Don't be bloody stupid, mate.
I'm looking after us both, alright?! I'll be buggered if I'm gonna let you get away with it.
Stevo! - Joey? - Still no contact.
We need a plan of ventilation ducts to help clear some gas.
Yeah, they're in here somewhere.
Oi.
Now's the perfect time to patch things up with Guy.
Look, it happened five years ago.
If he can't get past it, it's his problem, not mine.
Yeah, 'cause you haven't changed in five years.
What does that even mean, Chase? Britney.
Well, you practically stole her out from under me.
- Excuse me? - Well, I met her first.
I put in the groundwork and you come in and Well, how am I supposed to know this, Chase? It's not like you told me that you liked Britney.
I shouldn't have had to.
- You want me to call dibs next time? - Yeah.
It'd make it a lot easier.
Here, hold this.
I gotta make a call.
Yeah, righto.
Congratulations, Vince.
Guy reckons he's offered you his job? - That's right.
- Well, I hope you're gonna accept.
We'd definitely make it worth your while.
- Hey, Vince, what's this about a job? - Not now, Heidi-ho.
- I know what you're doing.
- You don't know shit, mate.
I know what cyanide and a filter press is for.
You're extracting gold on the sly, right? What you're mining the ore pillars? Is that it? Is Thompson in on it too? I heard you say, "I'm not gonna let you get away with it.
" Get away with what, Stevo? Hey? Get away with what? I need you to tell me what is going on.
What aren't you gonna let Thompson do? What are you hiding? What is going on? - There's someone else down there! - Who? - Ulrich! - He's been trapped the whole time? - Yep.
- Special Ops team, rig up! There's someone else down the mine! Recheck your O2 gauges and your kits.
What's going on? I'd ask you the same question, but I worked it out myself.
OK, fill me in.
Our Mr Thompson here has been mining out the ore pillars.
Him and a couple of his boys have been extracting gold on the side.
That's what destabilised the tunnels, not a seismic activity.
Complete bullshit! You've been scrambling for the last 24 hours to get rid of evidence.
It seems you'd rather leave one of your men down there too Ulrich is not down there, alright? He's panicked, he's done a runner.
He'll just turn up in a couple of days.
- You know that for a fact? - Yeah.
- What do you think you're doing? - You're still backup to me, remember? Warren, where is he? Where was Ulrich blasting when the cave-in happened? It's, um, one of the old barricaded tunnels on 340.
- Let's go, go, go, go, go.
- You put my people in danger.
No heroics.
If those pillars are mined out, it's gonna be bloody dangerous down there.
Keep checking your gauges.
Use comms where you can.
We still have Mine Rescue working in shifts to free Joey.
Well, your plan to free Joey in the first place has helped make the mine unstable.
Look, if I had all the information, I would not have risked blasting in that tunnel you know that.
Yeah, I don't know.
You always were a bit of a cowboy.
Pot, kettle, mate.
That's what made us such a good team.
Then you had to go and ruin everything.
- Right.
- OK.
So, we land on 295.
Abseil down this shaft into the ore pass, right? Prep the harnesses, Chase.
I want you to sit tight up top.
If we find this guy alive, we'll need to get him out quick.
That means someone up here holding on a rope.
I don't like the sound of that.
Clear on gas.
OK, it's this tunnel here on the right.
Thompson has made this entire mine unstable.
- Look at it.
- He's mined the pillars, alright.
Lucky it held this long.
How could anyone think this kind of risk is worth it? Some guys will risk anything to get what they want.
Stuff up other people's lives, not even bother to apologise for it.
You've got a lousy memory.
I did apologise.
You just refused to accept it.
Is that how you remember it, Lara? - I'm Switzerland here, OK? - I guess I should just move on, hey? - Not hold a grudge? - Pretty sound advice.
'Cause you're a changed man, right? - Has he given up chasing skirt? - No way.
He still chases.
But he's a lot slower than he used to be.
Right.
What, and you're gonna tell me you've settled down? I'm engaged.
That's right.
I'm getting married next month.
And she's got a six-year-old, which means I'm a dad too.
I hope he's not under there.
It's called commitment.
You should try it sometime.
- Ulrich! - Ulrich! Great.
I'll check if these old comms work.
Whoa.
Alright, we need to find Ulrich.
I don't think this part of the mine is going to last too much longer.
Heidi tells me you had a job offer.
Heading up Mine Rescue.
I guess that's a bit of a deal-killer.
The offer came from Guy Hewitt, not Thompson.
Vince, you're not seriously thinking you're gonna take it? This is Lara.
- We're at level 340.
Read me? - Yeah, Lara.
Barely reading you.
Can you give us a sitrep? Over.
We're in the sectioned-off tunnel.
A fair bit of rockfall here.
- Any sign of Ulrich? - Negative.
We're clearing debris now.
I don't like the look of this roof.
The rockfall's pretty friable.
Where's all the support? Band blades must have been taken down, used elsewhere.
- Any gas where you are? - Not yet, but we're monitoring it.
- Can I get a SIG drill?! - Gotta go.
Stand by.
- Lara! Got him! - Keep me posted.
What's his condition? Alright.
Alright.
I got a pulse.
It's faint, but it's there.
Shit.
Guys, we've got gas.
- A really high level! - Let's get him out, pick him up.
This tunnel's gonna fold.
Come on.
You alright? - Got him? Watch your feet.
- Yep.
Let's go.
Go, go, go.
- Go, go, go, go.
- Let's go.
Let's go.
- Keep moving.
Come on.
Go.
Come on, guys.
Alright? Alright, this way, guys.
Come on! - You go first.
- Yep.
- Chase! - I'm here.
I'll go up and help him.
Easy.
Watch his head.
Yeah, that's good.
- We still make a good team.
- Yeah, when we work together.
- Alright, take him up! - You got the Stokes? Alright.
Come on.
- Guy! Guy! - Dean! You want me down there? No! Just get ready to pull! Drag him up! Dean! Grab my hand! - Far out.
That was insane.
- It certainly was.
Are you guys OK? - How's Ulrich? - Stable.
That was very nearly a body recovery.
- What about Joey Cutler? Any news? - Still drilling.
Shift's about to change.
Alright, well, we'll take the next shift.
I think you guys should sit this one out.
Why? Because you nearly got burnt to a crisp down there, that's why.
- And? - The mine's unstable.
- And you guys are exhausted.
- Michelle, everyone's exhausted.
We came here to do a job.
Not leaving till it's done.
- Yeah, me neither.
- I'm in.
Alright, but this time, I give the order to get out, I want you out.
Vince, all clear in the tunnel.
Deano, any sign of a cave-in, I want you out.
Copy that, Vince.
Out.
Almost through.
Nice and slow.
OK, that's it.
You're through, you're through, you're through.
Gas! It's a low reading.
It's breathable.
- Get that drill bit out of there.
- Yeah.
Hey, Joey! Joey, can you hear us? Joey! It's Lara! Remember me? It's about time you bastards showed up.
There he is.
There he is.
Chase, let the surface know Joey's alive.
Alright, Joey, listen up.
We need you to get as far back from this hole as possible.
We're gonna stem up some charge holes with dummies to open her up, OK? Yeah.
I guess I can wait another minute.
Surface, this is the drill site.
Yeah, we've drilled through to Joey.
He's still alive.
What did he say? Good, good, good.
They found Joey.
He's alive.
We have to set charges to get Joey out.
It's too unstable to blast.
It could all come down.
Vince, we have to.
It's the only way to get to him.
OK.
Do it.
- Step back.
Det going in.
- Yep.
Surface, this is the drill site.
- Last fuse is set.
- Yeah, copy that.
Blasting now.
Three, two, one.
- How you doing there, Joey? - I'm not too bad.
Alright, let's prep to get him out.
Rescue, Command.
What's his condition, Deano? Looks pretty stable.
Busted arm's about the worst of it.
See you soon.
Dean, let's go.
- Alright.
- Yep.
Got it? Hey, you're way prettier than I imagined.
And I've been doing a lot of imagining.
Got it? You right? Here we go.
OK.
OK.
Down.
- Any of you guys got a phone? - You want to talk to Tracey? Nah.
I got a mate in Sydney who plays league.
I reckon I'm gonna need his agent.
OK.
Alright.
On three.
One, two, three.
OK.
Whoa.
I want to walk.
My mates will be watching.
I'm not getting carried out like a pussy.
Yeah, alright.
It might be best if you leave your oxygen on.
Nah, mate.
I've been breathing dust and crap for the last three days.
Alright.
I need a bit of real air.
Joey! Three cheers for overtime! - Hip, hip! - Hooray! - Hip, hip! - Hooray! - Hip, hip! - Hooray! Look, whatever it's worth, I am sorry for what happened back then.
Me too.
My only regret is that I didn't smack you in the head when I had the chance.
There she is.
Hello.
Sweetheart.
Come on.
Let's go home.
Need a hand? Yeah.
Can you grab one of those cylinders? - Not there, you nong.
- Who are you calling a nong? How long have you been able to hear for? - Long enough.
- What's that supposed to mean? You want to break up with me before we have sex? - That's not what I said.
- Yes, you did.
Well, it's not what I meant.
Jordan.
Well, look, we're not gonna be having any kind of sex, 'cause we're not going out.
'Cause you never ask me.
You nong.
- Hey.
How you doing? - Hey.
What a day? How about Guy? Marriage, kids.
He's really beaten you to the punch there, hasn't he? That's one competition I'm happy to have him win.
I don't know.
I reckon he really struck a chord with you.
I saw the way you looked at his fiancée and that beautiful little girl wasn't she beautiful? It was pity, Lara.
You gonna have a shower? - Yeah, sure, go on.
- Nice try, Gallagher.
- See ya.
- Bye.
Hey.
Did you get my email about the budget cut? What are we gonna do? Wheel and deal with the fireys, etc, etc, etc.
But, Vince, that takes, you know, skills that I don't have.
Something tells me with this new minister things are only going to get worse.
That was a pretty good PR move on your part, getting Tracey Cutler to make a press statement.
It's what I do public relations triage.
- Whereas you - Wheel and deal.
That's what makes us dangerous.
So does that mean you're not taking up the mine job? What, and break up the A-team? Besides, I kind of like the scenery.
If you really wanted to get rid of me, you could take a leaf out of Guy's book settle down, maybe find something not so casual, have a couple of kids.
Time's ticking away, mate, and you're only getting uglier every year.
Chase, Chase, shut up.
Hey, Britney.
Yeah, I'm good.
I'm good.
I just want to clear something up.
Do you remember my little brother hitting on you? That's what he said.
Yeah, I'm not sure.
