Playing for Keeps (2018) s02e03 Episode Script

1 We'll have to confirm a president before the season starts, - assuming no-one wants to contest? - Actually, I do.
You want to run for president? There's a job going as a development manager.
Running clinics in the outback.
I wanted to tell you in person.
I met someone.
- Her name's Annabelle.
- I've got a passion for fashion, Dallas, and releasing my very own swimwear collection is only the beginning.
We're both getting back in the game.
(GASPS) You're gonna get back into training! What are you doing here? I'm having a one night stand, can't you tell? I didn't have sex with him.
I didn't even kiss him.
You like this guy? The club can be our focus.
I just I just need a balancing act of French toast Sundays.
And Kath Rickards has been voted in as the first female president of the Southern Jets.
Goodbye.
(SONG: LIGHTNING BY THE BAG RAIDERS FT.
THE KITE STRING TANGLE) Can't remember the last time I went to the movies.
(GASPS) Do we still get popcorn? - Yep, over there.
- Yes.
- I didn't get time for lunch.
- I'm coming.
Me too.
I'm mad for a licorice bullet.
No Isabel tonight? Annabelle.
Beginning to think that she doesn't want to be seen in public with you.
- She doesn't.
- Smart lady.
Publicity's not really her thing.
- So what does Clarabel - Annabelle.
do? She's a doctor.
Tahlia, Connor, photo? Hey.
Photo.
That's great.
Lovely.
Very nice.
Whoa - What an amazing role model.
- Mm.
Kinda makes you want to take up horse riding.
Oh, please don't.
Bubbles? Nah, training.
Ugh, you're starting to sound like one of the boys.
- That's the plan.
- So this footy thing, you're serious.
Yeah.
I'm catching up with a few clubs this week, - see what I'm up against.
- Ooh.
Well, I'll drink for you.
I give myself full permission.
Mate, Trav must be flat out in the run-up to the first game.
Mm.
You're adorable when you do understatements.
- How's loverboy? - Brody? Oh, they're not lovers yet.
It's been a month.
Yeah.
I'm taking my time, being mindful of everyone's feelings.
Speaking of.
I should say hey.
Be back in a sec.
Now, is it just me or has he gotten hotter since the peroxide blonde went to rehab? Easy, tiger.
- Only playing.
- Does he know that? Of course! That's what makes it so fun.
So where is El Presidente tonight? - Kath? You talking about Kath? - Mm.
Yes, I am.
Nah, man, she's too busy and important to hang out with the plebs this close to the season opener.
- I thought we had it tough.
- Yeah.
All the nerves of the first game back, plus (WHISPERS) she has to make a speech.
Yeah, are you gonna go to that? - The president's lunch? - Yeah.
- Yeah.
Cool with you? - Yeah, yeah, of course.
Hey, how is it living with the captain? - Oh, actually, I moved in with Liam.
- Mm, why? Oh, well, Connor's got a new girlfriend and Liam and I are both single, so it worked out.
Kendall and Liam broke up? Yeah, yeah, a couple of weeks ago.
I mean, he's been cool about it but I think it's been rough.
Rehab sounds - really full on.
- Yeah, yeah.
Uh, I got to go.
Good chat.
OK.
See ya.
- I keep seeing you out.
- Well, stop looking, then.
Well, cheers for the Insta follow, by the way.
Uh, my social media team likes to keep on top of these things.
Well, the team did a very deep dive.
Well, they're very thorough.
- Hello.
- Hi.
Do you want to get out of here? - Not really.
- Nah, I think you do.
Nice outfit.
Let's go.
- Oh, see you later.
- See ya.
That's ruined, then.
Now I can't flirt with him without him thinking that I want to take it somewhere.
- But you still reckon he's hot.
- He is.
Even freshly dumped.
So I don't trade players.
(SCOFFS) I thought you could do whatever you wanted.
Well, business is business, and that would be bad for it.
Plus, you are the last person - who should be giving me relationship advice.
- (GIGGLES) What are you talking about? I'm nailing this.
(LAUGHS) It's literally the opposite of what you're doing.
If I go there with Brody, it's a step.
Mm.
Sex means relationship with that guy.
Exactly.
This is delicate.
All three of us.
You, me and Brody? (CHUCKLES) Me, Brody and Dan.
I still haven't told him.
I'm just waiting for things to be serious before I do.
Sounds like a whole lot of admin, if you ask me.
(SIGHS) (PHONE CHIMES) Righto.
Eyes up.
You've all worked hard this long pre-season.
And if we keep to our struc and if we keep to our structures, we can kick-start this season with a win.
Game plan.
Contest every single ball.
(SONG: TOOLS DOWN BY THE PRESETS) Back to the front, hug it out Tools down, pump it up, back to the front, hug it out Tools down, pump it up Back to the front, hug it out Tools down, lights up, top down, guns out Tools down, pump it up, back to the front, hug it out Tools down, pump it up, back to the front, hug it out Tools down, pump it up, back to the front, hug it out Tools down, lights up, top down, guns out, time's up.
Did you use the dryer again? - Yeah, funny.
- (LAUGHS) Oh, can you believe JJ was ever this small? I thought Georgie could wear that to the game.
When JJ was born, we couldn't move for club merchandise.
You know what they sent Georgie? Flowers.
She can't wear those on the footy field.
Nah, mate.
Girls get a raw deal.
Well, she can have an Eastern Dragons one when I sign with them.
- The Dragons? - Yeah, look, I'm catching up with Skye Edwards later.
We used to play together back in the day.
Yeah, no, she's good.
That's why they made her captain.
As long as you're cool sleeping with the enemy.
There's no denying that we haven't quite reached our pre-season membership targets, so let's brainstorm.
See if we can come up with some creative solutions.
Sure.
What do you have in mind? Oh, well, if you take a look, I've suggested a five-match membership as opposed to full season packages.
Yeah, I'm not sure this will get us a great overall result.
But we'll reach out to lapsed members.
If you can find the resources.
OK, but I do feel we need to make our social media presence a focus.
It's the Is there something you'd like to contribute, John? I'm sorry.
Just It's all a bit basic, isn't it? Well, that's what we're here for.
I'm open to suggestions.
You're the president.
OK.
We'll table that.
I think we need to have a chat about last week's performance review.
(GASPS) Ollie.
- Madeleine.
- Ugh.
I hated that at uni and I still do.
(CHUCKLES) Mwah.
Can you believe I've become a barrister? Ahh.
It was either that or professional alcoholic.
- I asked.
They wouldn't have me.
- Right.
Thanks for throwing me the work.
Thanks for the LinkedIn invitation.
I thought it was the warmest way to reach out.
Hmm.
(MOBILE PHONE RINGS IN THE BACKGROUND) What? You know how people say you haven't aged a bit? - Mm.
- You really have.
(LAUGHS) Shall we get on with the briefing? OK.
Well, buckle in.
This is going to be a good one.
MAN: Feet down.
That's it.
Fabulous.
One more.
And again.
Perfect.
Great stuff.
Bit of a smile.
Hang on a sec.
And again.
Lean back.
Yeah, great stuff.
Can we just get a few more without the intense scowls? - Yep.
- Yeah? - OK.
- Looking beautiful, ladies.
- It's coming together.
- Mm-hm.
Doubt the Jenners had to use their own house, but I'm sure they had investors to burn.
Any bites? A few.
I'm sensing a pause.
They all want you to model the range.
Well, it's not gonna happen.
I'm trying to run an empire here, OK? It's not about the body, it's about the brand.
Then what about partnering with a more experienced designer? Not because people don't think you're capable.
It's for publicity.
Bianca, if you don't share my vision I'm just not sure I can make it work with the adjusted time line.
Well, then, I'll do it myself.
- Oh, and, Bianca? - Yeah? Question me again and you're fired.
Where you go I'll go I'm waiting for you Yeah, you know I got this feeling Your name I'm hearing Won't you go? Pick up the pace, Davies! - Still ahead of you, Edwards! - Oh! OK.
- Ohh! Damn you! - (LAUGHS) Oh, you know I had a PB earlier this year.
Oh, should have asked for a bigger head start.
Hey, um, you should come train with us some time.
A couple of us keep going in our off-season.
Do you know how long it's been since I've been on a footy field? Yeah.
All the more reason.
Yeah.
OK.
Well, I'll see you tomorrow.
Dragons versus the Southern Jets.
- Yes, I will be there.
- Yep.
Here's hoping we smash 'em.
- Them? - Yep.
You're one of us now, right? Better together (PAIGE LAUGHS) So tomorrow I am familiar with it, yeah.
You got plans? First game of the season.
- Are you going? - Yeah, just to support Kath.
You know, she got the whole president's thing.
Speeches.
Party pies half-time.
Yeah, yeah, no, I remember.
Did you have something in mind? Uh, I may have made a few plans for us.
- Nothing big, um, so - Oh, 'cause I can cancel.
No, no, don't.
It's my fault for not checking in sooner.
Honestly, she probably won't even notice.
And Dan? Unless I decide to streak across a field, he probably won't notice either.
- Don't rule it out.
- I'm cancelling.
- No, Paige, I didn't - Hey.
Hangin' out with you is more important.
Great.
- Tomorrow it is, then.
- Yeah.
Better together This is a sex date.
What? Oh, nah.
He's got plans? Please.
Nah, it's gonna be daytime.
You can only have sex in the dark? Do you want me to book you in with my waxer? No, thank you.
What are you doing? - I am looking for the deed to this house.
- Why? I'm gonna use it to leverage my swimsuit line Aha! Do you think that's a good idea? No, I think it's an amazing idea.
- What if you lose the house? - I won't.
- But what if you do? - Paige (GASPS) Cheeky bitch.
(KNOCK AT DOOR) Oh.
Thought you were a travelling salesperson.
Or is that something you've been doing since my son left you? I left him.
Now, why is there a caveat on the deed to my house? - Is there? - I can't do anything with it until we're divorced.
Thought I'd give you something to strive for.
Let's talk.
I want the house, all of it, in my name now.
(SCOFFS) I was gonna ask if you wanted a cup of tea.
Don't fuck with me, Diane.
What is this? I see it as protection for you.
I see it as blackmail.
It's still yours, Thalia.
It's just divorce pending.
And you haven't been separated long enough to tick off that wonderful milestone.
Well, do what you have to do, but make it happen.
Why? - I don't have to explain myself to you.
- Indulge me.
- I am financing a new venture.
- Are you still your own business? I imagine the staff appraisals are glowing.
- I'm releasing my own swimwear line.
- Fabulous.
But if you have to put your own money in, it isn't sound.
I didn't come here for a lecture in business management.
Look, you'll get the house when the divorce comes through.
Why don't you use the time to actually study commerce or design, rather than assuming you're remotely qualified for any of this? You know what? I will have that tea.
Rooibos, if you have it.
OK, Panda and Fluffy.
Lucy makes eggs.
Yes, well, Lucy's not working today and omelettes are surprisingly difficult.
Can I tempt you with breakfast? Unlikely.
I'll get something at the club, thanks.
Speaking of getting new things It's not my birthday.
If it was, this would be very disappointing.
- Are these what I think they are? - Mm-hm.
I thought the tradition needed updating.
Lucky socks.
- Ohhh, they smell so fresh.
- I know.
Enjoy it while it lasts.
- I love them.
- I love you.
I've got to go.
I've got to go.
Bye, Panda.
Bye, Fluffy.
- BOTH: Bye-bye.
- Toodle-pip.
See ya.
(GASPS) What's this? A legal professional hard at work.
The pastries.
Bribery for coming in on a Saturday.
And I thought maybe you hadn't had a chance to grab breakfast.
I hadn't.
Thank you.
Ohh! How's mum life? Deeply fulfilling and completely exhausting.
More so since Mr Cochrane made coach.
I read the papers.
Yeah, but the sports section? You've changed.
What about you? Did you and Stephanie get hitched? I read the social medias.
We did.
And then we thought we'd try a divorce.
It really stuck.
Ollie, I'm so sorry.
Cronut? Thank you.
TAHLIA: We sold 20,000 units at $1.
50 apiece.
That's $3 million in the first year alone.
- Gross.
- Obviously.
And there is no doubt that the product will move.
I'm sure there's some.
Not according to the high-end department stores that I've been speaking to.
I thought you were more of an online kind of girl.
Well, it's an online kind of world, Diane.
And those retailers want a piece of the customer base that I can deliver.
I suppose you do have a certain amount of influence over the more impressionable members of society.
Well, people like to think that they have a lifeline to me.
And if they purchase one of my gorgeous bikinis, they will.
Well if the numbers stack up sounds like an appealing business model.
Pleased to have got you there.
Now can I have my house? No.
But I do want to invest.
(LAUGHS) Looking good, captain.
What are you doing here? Can't a woman come and visit her ex-husband for a friendly chat - every now and again? - What do you want, Tahlia? If I was to get a floral arrangement that was likely to change your mother's mind, what would they look like? (LAUGHS) Not getting involved.
Connor, please.
I tried the stick.
Really just need the carrot.
She wants to invest in my swimwear line.
- Say that again? - Yeah.
I know.
- Obviously it was a strong no from me.
- Good.
But I need her to sign over the house properly.
- I can't deal with this right now.
- Connor! It's game day.
You two do what you want.
Hey.
Just so you know, Annabelle's coming to the lunch.
You were right.
It is time we take it public.
Yes, well Why don't you send me through the proposal and I'll have a look? Can I get five copies, please? Thank you.
- Sure.
- Yes, I'll have a look before Monday.
Bye.
- Is that for me? - Oh, yeah.
I'm gonna kiss you.
- (LAUGHS) Tough morning.
- Mm.
Let's just say it's nice to see a friendly face.
Mate, they wouldn't have voted for you - if they didn't think you could do it.
- Ugh.
Which is also why I have something to ask.
OK.
Go on.
All right, I want to talk seriously about starting a women's team.
OK.
I'm listening.
Right, so the league's going nuts, numbers are growing exponentially every year and I want to play for the Southern Jets.
Come on, Kath.
Don't you think it's time? Jessie, I thought it was time two years ago.
- Really? - Yeah.
So you'll help me get this across the line? Yeah, look, it's on my list, OK, but there will be challenges.
Yeah.
Like? Like money, resources, we need to train talent, which takes more resources.
But there are government grants, sponsorships, ways of doing this.
You don't need to convince me.
Let me look into it.
- OK! - All right.
I'll get back to you.
Yee! (CLAPS) Thank you, Kath! (LAUGHS) No.
No problem at all, Connor.
I'll make sure she feels completely at home.
My pleasure.
OK.
Bye.
It's like having 22 extra children.
You're the old woman who lived in a shoe.
Not helping.
I'll leave you to it.
Just give me five seconds.
No.
All good.
We're finished here anyway.
I'll give you a call once I've gone over these affidavits, OK? Great.
But we should catch up some time.
At a school.
Share war stories.
I would love that.
Uh Next Thursday? Next Thursday in three months? I'll put it in my diary.
Great.
Use pencil.
(LAUGHS) Where are we at? Kids are at the park with Lucy, washing is in the machine, - lucky socks are on.
- Oh.
Connor's girlfriend? - On it.
- And Tahlia? There's only so much one woman can do, Travis.
- You're amazing.
- I know! OK.
I'll see you after the game.
Oh, after, after.
I've got a press conference on first.
Ah.
Roger that.
(MOBILE PHONE RINGS) Oh! Don't tell me you finished already.
Are you sure you read them properly? - Nah, they're all the same.
- (LAUGHS) Hey, while I've got you, I don't suppose you're free for that catch-up this afternoon? That'd be great.
(GASPS) Honnn-aaay! How do I look? Like someone who's ready to take it to the next level.
OK, your input's over.
- But is it ever really? - Mm-hm.
OK.
My turn.
How do I look? Insane, as always.
Thanks.
And you don't have to worry about the new girlfriend.
- (DOORBELL RINGS) - I'm not.
- Just going to support Kath.
- (PHONE CHIMES) (GASPS) Ooh! Organ donor.
- Can we maybe stop calling him that? - (DOOR BUZZES) If it makes you feel any better, I changed my mind about which organ he wants to give you.
OK.
Ladies.
- Am I interrupting something? - Oh, no, no.
Nothing at all.
Great.
You ready? Oh, yeah, she's very ready.
OK.
- Let's go.
- Yeah.
ANNOUNCER: And it's the season opener today for the Southern Jets in the first game under new coach Travis Cochrane.
ANNOUNCER 2: Yes, a lot of eyes on Travis and the rest of the team this afternoon.
They'll definitely be feeling the pressure.
The big question is what new power forward Liam Flynn - will add to the mix.
- All Australian Coleman medallist, three-time Best and Fairest.
Southern Jets fans will certainly be hoping he can bring a bit of that magic back to his home town.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Came to wish you luck.
Ah, I appreciate it.
- How are they feeling? - Good.
- Ready.
- Good.
It's weird, Brian not being here.
Feels like someone's missing.
This is the start of a new era in this club.
And we could not be in more capable hands.
Let's go out there and smash them.
JESSIE: Kath's gonna announce it today.
I'm telling you, Bob.
We are so ready for this.
Yeah, come on.
Come join us in the 21st century.
Hey.
What are we talking about? The women's team.
Secretly Bob knows it's gonna happen.
Well, you make some very passionate - and entertaining points.
- Thank you.
Kath, a word? You are aware that we don't have - any board support for a women's team? - I am aware that there is limited support, Bob.
We discussed this two years ago and again last year.
We are not yet ready.
With respect, Bob, I disagree.
We don't have the talent pool yet.
Well, we need to start somewhere.
People don't like that we're not moving with the times.
And how are you gonna pay for it? - Sponsors.
- To back what? Without established, proven talent, no-one will come on board.
Now, look, I appreciate this issue - is probably very close to your heart.
- Because I'm a woman.
A male president should want this, Bob.
- The board should want this.
- We do.
But not yet.
Thank you.
That's her.
- How do you know? - Look at her.
If that's not an Annabelle, I don't know what is.
Are you going to behave? Your guess is as good as mine.
Annabelle Ford, I'd like you to meet Jessie Davies.
- Hi.
Great to meet ya.
- You, too.
And this is Tahlia Woods.
I am so pleased that Connor finally invited you.
Oh, I'm so pleased I could finally make it.
We're all pleased then.
Excellent.
Oh, I think that man's trying to get your attention.
- Who's that? - Oh that's Oliver Jansen.
He's an old law school friend.
What, you brought a date to your husband's first game? Nice.
- No, we're working together.
- I'd like to check out his briefs.
- Do you ever stop? - Never.
- Oh, speech time.
- Here we go.
(CHEERING, APPLAUSE) Thank you.
Thank you.
Well, it is such a delight to see all of you here today on this, our first game back for the season.
(CHEERING) Listen up.
It's been a long, tough road but we've worked hard.
And if we stick to our structures, we can kick this thing off with a win we all know we deserve.
ALL: Yes! We need numbers around the ball, maintain possession, harass the opponent, don't give him any space.
And can I take the time to welcome the CEO of the Eastern Dragons? Now, I know your lot don't breathe fire, but you do blow hot air, especially when you're talking about chances in the eight.
(LAUGHTER) Now, I am thrilled to be announcing some new initiatives this year.
With thanks to the generous support of our sponsors I'm so proud to announce that we will be expanding the Jack Davies Foundation to include short-term crisis housing, health checks and occupational training for some of society's most vulnerable members, displaced women and children.
- You got this! - Yes! Every single one of you know it.
Come on! Now get out there and show me that! Go on! Our fabric is strong.
Our past trials don't define us they unite us.
Top eight last year, this year, the flag.
We are a force to be reckoned with.
Go Southern Jets! So, how are the Year 11s so far? Oh, pretty good.
Pretty good, the ones that have stuck around.
- Are they dropping out? - Oh, a few.
- (ON TV) Andrews at half back - It always bums me out.
Fletcher.
Campbell to O'Reilly.
He'll go long towards the pocket.
Up goes Maclean, gets the spoils.
Stuart at ground level steps around - This place is cool.
- Yeah.
It is.
Yes.
- Very cool.
- Moore underneath it.
He's in perfect position over the top.
Daniel Fletcher once again, and he is within range.
Oh, he had a great first year.
- Do you wanna check out the other room? - Mm-hm.
- Yep.
Do that.
Yep.
- a rising star seems very much to have picked up exactly where he left off.
Coming up to half time.
And the Southern Jets are ahead by 10 points.
Fantastic contest so far, you'd have to say Flinders really lifted that forward line.
No doubt about it, JB.
But the mighty Eastern Dragons won't go down without a fight.
And with the scores this close, it's still anyone's right now.
- The boys are playing well.
- Yeah.
- So, are we ? - Yes.
- Thank you.
Jess.
Champers? - Yeah.
Nice to meet you.
Well, your mate seems to be making friends.
Yeah.
I'm a bit worried about what he's saying.
He's not a footy fan.
- Really? He seems at home.
- He does that.
Oh, shit.
I've left Annabelle unattended.
Shit.
So - Doctor.
- Yes.
Now, if you tell me that you save sick children, I might actually vomit.
Orthopaedics.
Ah, hip replacements, comfy shoes.
- Something like that.
- Well, good for you.
You know what? You should actually take a look at Connor's knee.
That thing has been bothering him for ages.
I have.
You know, the club doctors said that he needed surgery, but he kept putting it off.
It's a shame that you couldn't do him.
I did.
Hey, I'm sorry that Diane's been giving you so much trouble lately.
For what it's worth, um, I think she's being totally unreasonable.
I can handle Diane.
- Is everything OK? - Yeah.
- Everything is just fine.
- Mm-hm.
- How's the pasta? - Ah it's its amazing.
It reminds me of this really - influential gnocchi I had in Venice.
- Mmm.
(FOOTY COVERAGE CONTINUES ON TV) DINER AT NEXT TABLE: Come on.
Here you go.
So, is the, um, is the pizza in Italy as good as they say it is? Yeah.
- It's better.
- Really? every player on the mark In comes Fletcher, crowd holds its breath.
In the goal.
Get in there.
Come on.
It's in! Yes! (ALL TALK EXCITEDLY) This will be one of the Southern Jets' most famous victories.
- Unbelievable performance - Dessert? from the Jets and Daniel Fletcher.
- (SIREN BLARES) - There it is.
The first win for new coach Travis Cochrane.
He'll be relieved to have that one under the belt.
Oh, too right, JB.
Strong performances from veteran Rusty O'Reilly and Captain Connor Marrello.
But the real stars of today looking like match winners, Daniel Fletcher and new recruit Liam Flynn, who kicked an impressive five straight.
- My daughter Ella.
- ALL: Go, Southern Jets! Call me back.
- Congratulations.
- Congratulations to you too.
What a pity Brian couldn't be here.
Yeah.
He'll be really sad he missed it.
- When is he due back? - Soon.
(ALL CHANT TEAM SONG) We'll never rest till we win the cup.
And you'll know you're up against the mighty Southern Jets.
Whoo! Fletcher.
Oi, Fletch, mate.
That was fucking excellent.
Eh, thanks, brother.
Cheers.
Get down there.
Go.
Go.
Hey, Kath, what happened? - Well, we won.
- No, I mean, with the women's team.
Yeah.
I I never said I was going to announce it today.
I'm sorry.
OK.
But you didn't even flag it.
I didn't say never.
Just not now.
That sounds like no.
- Well, you're just not hearing me right, OK? - Kath, - you're supposed to be a mate.
- I am.
I am.
But I am also president of this club.
And I don't think you comprehend the pressure I'm under.
Or the compromises you have to make.
Yeah.
Those too.
Yeah.
You're sounding a lot like Andrew MacLeish right now.
Fuck you, Jessie.
Whoo! Well done, boys.
Well done.
- You look very nice.
- Oh, thank you.
Erggh.
They're the worst.
I like her.
Well, as far as I'm aware, she hasn't asked anyone for drugs or tried to fight me, - so that's a win I'll take you.
- (CLEARS THROAT) Oh, hey.
Congratulations.
- Great goal in the third quarter.
- Thank you.
I'm just gonna suss out how long Trav will be.
Is that the famous Arabella? - It's Annabelle.
- What did you ever see in him? Potential.
And Kendall? Kendall and I were just kids when we met.
I'd just been drafted and she was a waitress at some fancy event.
Classic story.
She'd done it pretty tough grown up.
Well, I know how that goes.
We've got a lot in common.
You don't know me.
I think I do.
Hey, Liam, you got a sec? You guys put up a good fight.
Oh, yeah.
Not quite good enough, though.
- It's lucky our women are better.
- They are.
You'll call me about that training, yeah? - Yes.
Yeah.
Will do.
- Great.
We want you on our team.
Here's Fletch Did you see that fumble in the last quarter, though? (ALL YAHOO AND BEEP HORN) - This is getting ridiculous now.
- Ah just we picked the wrong night.
