Rescue Special Ops (2009) s03e10 Episode Script
Stolen
I'm Hayden Bradley, and this is Life Blood.
We're the new face of Rescue.
Spirit of cooperation? Yes.
Working together? Exactly.
Cam Jackson, Life Blood unit leader.
LARA: Cam! Argh! Dean! I've got you.
I've got you! Think we can make it to that awning? Alright, Cam, don't do this.
If Dean and I cut loose, we've got a chance! DEAN: Three! No! I can't move.
(SIREN WAILS) MICHELLE: It's been a year since Council promised to widen this road.
It is killing our response times.
Take it up with them on Monday.
We're going on holiday.
If Rescue hasn't imploded by then.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I just feel really guilty, taking off, like, so soon after Cam's accident.
Michelle, you're taking Friday off.
They can do without you for one day.
We booked this two months ago.
Well, two months ago, Dean and Lara weren't ready to kill one another, were they? Oh, man.
Oh, God! Hayden Bradley wanted to meet.
So, cancel.
About Cam is my guess.
I should have my incident report just in case he wants to Michelle, no! Just two minutes.
This is our time! Two minutes! OK? I promise.
OK, OK.
Alright, that'll help.
Dean and Chase must be on mobile patrol.
Flight leaves at 7 am.
No refunds, Michelle.
It's open.
(DEVICE BEEPS) What?! (DEVICE BEEPS) Hello? (SOFT CLATTERING) Dean? (CLUNKING) (SCREAMS) Hey! Hey! Hey! Oi! Oi! Jesus! Come on, come on! Michelle, wait! MICHELLE: (SHOUTS) Hey! Stop! Stop! Hey! Look out! SONG: # Mmm, mmm, mmm # Real dark and dirty # Gonna get a little dirty, yeah # I'm gonna get a little # Dirty, yeah # Gonna get a little dirty.
# (SIREN WAILS) So, this is Michelle's idea of a dirty weekend.
I don't think weekends are in her vocabulary.
Michelle? That our burglar? No.
That's the other driver.
The kid's stuck under the sedan.
Car's dragged him over the edge.
His foot's trapped.
Orange last time I checked.
BP and pulse are steady.
Red here, though.
Impalement.
Alright.
Onto it.
Rescue Team Leader to Rescue Base.
Vince, what's the ETA on our ambo? Yeah, this is Rescue Base.
We're looking at 10 minutes plus.
Better put a rocket under 'em.
Looks like we got our hands full here.
Will do, Dean.
Rescue Base out.
Alright, guys, let's get a move on.
I want to chock up that black ute.
I want stabilisation on that car and I want to know what's coming out of those drums.
You go.
Look, Lara We've got work to do.
(SIGHS) Still anger.
Second stage of grief.
I thought they'd at least be up to bargaining by now.
They need to bury the hatchet before someone gets hurt.
Someone did get hurt, remember? Heidi, we'll take the kid under the car.
We will? Yep.
DEAN: You two, let's go.
Where are we at? I think it's missed everything vital.
Check it out.
How are you, mate? My name's Dean.
I'm from Rescue.
Bloody kid with a hood just come from nowhere.
He's OK? You did well, mate.
You did well.
We're gonna get you out of here.
Chase, keep eyes on.
Alright.
Pipe's gone straight through him, into the seat.
He's pinned fast.
I'd say that it's just missed his carotid.
Good, good.
MICHELLE: (ON RADIO) Heidi, we got a name out of that burglar yet? We're on our way down now.
We'll let you know when we do.
Alright.
I'll I'll be over there as soon as I'm finished here.
Copy that.
Lara, wait.
MAN: My foot's stuck.
I can't get it out.
You gotta slow down.
Sorry.
I just had to get away.
I can't breathe when Dean's around.
Just it makes me want to scream.
Lara, it's Dean.
You know he would have done everything he could have.
He cut Cam's rope.
To save you.
I didn't need saving.
Cam did.
Lara, Cam he did survive, you know? From that height, they both really should have been It wasn't Dean's call to make.
It was mine.
It just it didn't have to happen.
MAN: Help, damn it! Move your arse! You deal with him.
I'll secure the car.
(MAN PANTS) (GRUNTS) We're just securing the car.
Can you tell me where the pain is? Where do you reckon? My leg.
CHASE: This guy should buy a lottery ticket.
Yeah.
I'm sure he's feeling real lucky at the moment.
Dean, where do you want us? Dean? Yeah.
Uh Michelle, take the other driver.
Nose to toes.
Get a hard collar on him.
Jordan, get foam on the fuel spill out there.
Alright.
These pipes are copper.
Power saw's gonna heat them up, so we'll have to cut him out by hand.
(SIGHS) Hang in there, mate.
Keep an eye on him.
Yeah, we are.
I got a pack of smokes in my pocket.
Light us up one, would ya? I'm dying here.
You gotta be kidding me, right? Here.
You can have a puff on that.
It's pain relief.
So, you got a name? Anyone we can call for you? So, what were you doing at our station house, then? I got lost.
Oh, you're funny.
What were you photocopying? My butt.
Original.
I can show you the original, if you want.
You know you crash-tackled a detective's wife, genius? I know a lot of things.
Rescue Base to Rescue 5 Portable.
We have a problem, Michelle.
Yeah, go on.
The cops reckon the burglar might have known our security system.
Over.
How?! When we've freed the burglar, I will ask him.
How's he holding up? Not going anywhere.
Neither are we.
Sorry, lan.
If I'd stayed in the car, we'd be on our way to Cairns by now.
Ah, well, there's always next weekend.
Until some other catastrophe intervenes.
Love you.
You too.
BP is stabilising.
(GROANS) What - are they paying you lot by the hour? Slow and steady wins the race, mate.
Rescue 2 Portable to Rescue Team Leader, we're getting subsidence here.
Request an extra set of hands to extract the patient.
You guys OK? Yeah, copy that, Rescue 2 Portable.
I'm on my way.
(CHUCKLES) What, you're knocking off already, you slack bastard? These two will take over.
They'll get you out, OK? Wish me luck.
Good luck.
They're talking.
That's a start.
Start of what? World War III? What are you waiting for? You're Rescue, aren't you? Rescue me! Keep your hood on.
What have we got? Leg's caught.
Left arm's fractured.
Possible concussion.
We gotta get him out before the whole slope goes.
(CAR CREAKS) Don't move.
(DEAN GRUNTS) Alright.
His foot's caught up in the steering mechanism.
I'm gonna need you to turn the wheel for me.
Nah.
It's stuck.
Stand back.
Uh, Dean, we're in.
Alright, turn the wheel counterclockwise.
Yep.
Keep going! Yep, that's it.
That's the way.
Keep going! (GRUNTS) Whoa! Whoa! That's it.
That's it.
Damn it.
Alright.
Knife.
No! You are not cutting my foot off.
Relax.
I'm only gonna amputate your shoe.
Trust me.
Trust you? You're the bloody assassin.
Assassin? Guy who tried to take out his climbing partner.
If the name fits Hurry, Dean! We're losing it! Dean, hurry! Alright, he's free.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Guys, move it! Lara! Guys, are you OK? Get off! Get off me! I don't need your help! I can take care of myself.
You had no right.
Alright, just take it easy.
I could have saved him! It wasn't your call! Lara, hey! He is never gonna walk again.
Do you get that?! You crippled him.
MICHELLE: What happened? Is everyone alright? Yeah.
(SIREN WAILS) Where'd he go? The patient - where did he go? (DISTANT SIREN WAILS) He's tachy.
He's got several broken ribs, internal bleeding.
But he's gonna make it.
Good.
So, it's not a complete balls-up.
Was that a compliment? I'll take it.
Michelle, we did save the kid's life.
Where is he? Three of you there, and you let a severely compromised patient, who's wanted by the police, get away.
What happened? Lara happened, OK? She lost it.
I I know she's been doing it tough since Cam's accident, but she needs to step back.
She needs to take some time out.
She's not coping.
Just Lara? I'm fine.
The team's not.
You wor Do you have their confidence? (SHOUTS) Do you have their confidence, Dean?! See ya.
Where's she going? I I don't know.
The hospital.
Look, what do you want from me, Vince? I'm not gonna step down.
(SIREN WAILS) Hey, forget it! I didn't do anything wrong.
The incident review cleared me.
Just for the short term, Dean, OK? We're not saying forever.
Just until you and Lara get over this.
Right? OK, alright.
I'll do it for the team.
But if you think that this is for the short term, then you two are kidding yourselves.
Lara thinks that I put Cam in a wheelchair.
We're not just gonna get over it.
LARA: Hi.
Hey.
There she is.
Sorry.
I'm I'm interrupting.
No, no, no.
Come in.
We can do this later, if you like.
Yep.
You can leave the basin, if you want.
I can do it.
Oh, Lara, you don't have to do that.
I want to.
I guess I'm not in a position to argue.
(CHUCKLES) You look smashed.
Are you sleeping? Oh.
You know when I can.
How are you feeling? Now, which part are you asking? Above the torso, I feel like I've just done three rounds with Tyson.
Below, I They said you had feeling in your feet.
Yeah, I got phantom pains.
My body won't accept my back's broken.
Yesterday, I woke up and tried to stand up, and fell out of bed.
Hey, beautiful you gotta stay positive, OK? Mm-hm.
We rescued this surfer once with a broken C2.
Mm.
And just a few months ago, he walked right into the station house to thank us.
Yep.
Modern medicine.
I'll be fine.
I felt that.
It's OK.
It's OK.
"Assassin.
" Where'd the little smart arse get that from? What, you heard it?! Don't bullshit me, Chase.
Well, it's been going around the Emergency Services.
I thought you'd know.
Hey, it could be a term of respect.
The 'Assassin'.
It means you're slick, professional.
You get the job done.
Yeah, I'm sure that's exactly what it means, Chase.
Hey, how do you reckon that guy knew about Dean? Sticks and stones.
Put yourself out there, they give you a nickname.
Heidi-ho, Jay-Z.
Oh, please! What? It's my initials - JZ.
Oh, yeah? Well, say g'day to Beyonce for me.
VINCE: (ON RADIO) Rescue Command to Rescue Team Leader, sitrep.
Rescue Command to Rescue Team Leader, do you read? He's talking to you.
Oh, yeah.
Rescue Team Leader here.
Um Vince, we've searched the surrounding area.
There's no sign of the patient.
Righto.
Head back.
This is a cop matter now.
Rescue Command out.
Copy that.
Rescue Team Leader to all units, uh, let's head back in.
Uh, Dean, are you cool with that? DEAN: Whatever you think, Jordan.
You're the Unit Leader.
Hey, Acting Unit Leader.
Here.
Another one.
(READS) "11:30am to 4pm.
HB lunch.
" That's a long lunch.
We had a lot to talk about.
You don't see a pattern here? Every second day, there's a mention of Hayden Bradley or Life Blood.
(READS) "5pm to 6pm.
HB, Alto Bar.
" We were discussing a new funding initiative.
Sorry, lan.
Nothing.
It's up to your mob now.
It's not your fault.
I shoulda had a hold of the little prick when I had the chance.
What's this? Work diary.
Who'd be interested in that? Hayden Bradley.
He might want to know who you're talking to.
VINCE: Why? Life Blood's the competition, aren't they? How many times has Hayden undercut you or beaten you to the punch on contracts? And didn't that kid use some Emergency Services nickname on Dean? The Assassin.
Yeah.
The kind of cheap shot I'd expect from Life Blood.
Mm-hm.
But to break in? That's a bit of a risk, don't you think? Unless he had a security pass.
Which are only handed out to Rescue staff.
You're not a suspect, Heidi.
It sounds like it.
We just want you to think back.
At the Life Blood offices, did you ever misplace your security pass? Why me, Michelle? You spend more time with Hayden Bradley than I do flying his choppers.
You don't seem to realise, Heidi.
They are the competition.
Really? I thought you were building a constructive working arrangement.
Thank you, Heidi.
But you can't accuse me Go.
(SIGHS) What?! Well, you have been seeing a bit of Hayden.
(JORDAN WHISTLES) I'm not a dog.
Fixed these BAs yet? Hey, settle, buddy.
They'll be done when they're done.
Finish up, mate, 'cause we're gonna hit the road.
Evidence wants the truck cleaned still.
Nah, it can wait.
Dude, it's like Siberia in here.
Give 'em some space.
They'll have to talk to each other.
I think you might have had your first good idea.
OK.
Where are you two sneaking off to? Mobile patrol.
Oh, count me in.
If I'm here when Michelle gets back, I might say something I'd regret.
It's more of a two-man operation.
Yeah? Where are they, then? You know the truck needs cleanin'? So? So, I'm Unit Leader.
Acting Unit Leader, hot shot.
HEIDI: Hurry up.
CHASE: Righto.
Seriously, how much did you slip Vince? Why'd he make you unit leader? It's obvious.
Is it? Well, I'm the most talented, the most responsible Jordan, your mum still does your washing.
Scoreboard, guys.
Scoreboard.
Hey, coming up to Crown Street.
What's at Crown Street? I already told you.
Mobile patrol.
HEIDI: Wait a minute.
This is a perv run, isn't it? I don't know what you're talking about.
Hey, ladies! CHASE: Hi! HEIDI: God, this is so sad.
We should do this every morning.
Hey, you're the boss.
Help me, someone.
Please! I think it's clean.
Yeah.
I think you might be right.
Looks like we've been abandoned.
Looks like it.
I think they're hoping that we'll talk to each other.
Nothing more to say.
Lara.
Dean, don't.
Lara, hey, listen.
Listen.
I'm sorry, OK? But no-one could have stopped Cam from falling.
Not me, not you.
No-one.
It was an accident.
I gotta get back to the hospital.
Say hi to Cam for me.
Say hi yourself.
(SIGHS) HEIDI: OK, enough.
Let's go! JZ, Unit Commander, Special Ops.
This is, uh, my wing commander, Chase, at your service.
Actually, he's my wingman.
I'm not with them! Hey, Jordan, glamour, nine o'clock.
Where? Just passed.
Back it up.
Back it up.
Yep.
Yeah, yeah.
Keep going.
Jordan! Jordan! (SMASH!) Go forward! Forward! Forward! (ONLOOKERS JEER) Shit.
(CAMERAS CLICK) We're dead.
Tell me about it.
My first rescue as Unit Team Leader, and it's me.
Vince is gonna pop a friggin' heart valve.
What are you gonna tell him? Why don't you tell him you tried to mate a Patrol with a hatchback? Haven't you idiots ever heard of a nightclub? That's the accepted place to perv on the opposite sex.
Don't look at me.
I was following orders.
Sure you were.
Serves you both right.
You could help, you know? (SIGHS) We're gonna need a rope and a winch to drag this off.
You forgot the shovel.
Dig yourselves a hole.
MAN: My car! Which one of you clowns is JZ? Someone's worded him up.
Knows exactly where the cameras are.
Look.
Well, too bad for him we've got six eyewitnesses.
He's taking a call.
Look.
VINCE: Doesn't look like good news.
Someone's told him that I'm coming.
Could be.
A second person keeping watch outside.
(MICHELLE SCREAMS ON RECORDING) Who are you working for, you little bastard? Michelle, you got company.
Hey.
Sorry, Michelle.
Sorry for? Well, I was trying to get away earlier for our meeting Oh! Oh.
which you obviously forgot about.
Meeting's off.
Excuse me? You heard.
Scoot.
lan.
VINCE: Come up to the office, mate.
MICHELLE: Good.
Come here.
It's all here, mate.
HAYDEN: Is this a bad time? Why don't you check her diary? Take it easy, Deano.
You should cut contact with that weasel.
We did have a meeting scheduled.
Yeah.
So, he can lower your defences and sweet-talk his way out of trouble.
Why do I feel like I'm the one under investigation here? 'Cause Hayden Bradley's got you wrapped around his little finger, and you don't even know it or maybe you like it.
I don't know.
(IAN STARTS CAR) Everything alright? Yeah.
Just one of those days.
I'm hearin' you.
(SIGHS) We'll get through it.
Yeah.
Dean just can't admit that he's made a mistake, and now he's got Vince and Michelle on his side.
And as if anyone's ever gonna question the great Dean's version of events.
Maybe Dean made a good case.
They weren't there on the side of the building.
I was.
So was I, Lara.
Stop that! It's the nurse's job.
I I don't mind.
I do! Stop it.
Listen we both made the choice to cut the rope - Dean and me.
We've both made peace with it.
You spoke to him? He came to see me a couple of times.
But You can't keep blaming the poor guy.
No, Cam Look, he made the right choice! You know, we all could have died.
No.
I could have held on.
This didn't have to happen.
Well, it did! We have to accept it.
I just don't know if I can do that with you.
Don't say that.
I'm gonna look after you.
I've got long service.
I'll take time off.
I don't want to be your patient, Lara.
And trust me, you don't want to be my nurse.
(SIGHS) Look, I don't know the right way to say this.
But when I see you it reminds me of how I used to be.
Hey.
And I can't be in that head space.
And I know it it kills you to see me like this.
No.
Cam, that's not true.
I can see it in your face.
Please.
I want to look after you.
Lara, don't How are we going? Do you need a hand here? Yes.
Cam? Look at me.
Please look at me.
We're gonna get through this.
I promise you.
Cam Sure.
Yep.
I'll see you later.
You're serious? You think I hired someone to break into the station house? To what - to steal trade secrets? We are the competition.
(CHUCKLES) Hardly.
No offence, Michelle, but the Life Blood operating budget is much larger than Rescue.
We've got the best equipment money can buy, and I've got the Minister's ear.
Look (CLEARS THROAT) There's only one thing here I want, and that's you.
(CHUCKLES) Which is why I wanted this meeting.
The way you've held this unit together since Cam's accident, your grace under fire, your work ethic, your loyalty I'm in awe.
No, seriously.
You are wasted in the public service.
I want you on my team.
No, no, no.
lan said that you'd try something like this.
Now, why why have you come here, really? Well, that's for a four-day week, which means more time with your son and more time with lan.
Nobody is worth that much.
I can make it less, if you want.
VINCE: Well, get it off the car, and get your sorry arses back here.
Over! Who's next on the list? Heidi? Chase? Our acting unit leader has already written off a car and buggered a Patrol.
(SIGHS) Everything OK? Yeah.
Good.
Thanks, Vince.
We're fine.
Right.
(WHISPERS) What is wrong with you? Is there ever a time you guys don't think about sex? When you're having sex.
VINCE: Run it by me again.
Well, we were looking for a park.
I didn't see the car behind me.
You know, these Patrols, all the blind spots.
Yep.
You want to tell me what really happened? Yeah.
What Jordan said.
It was an accident.
These things just happen, Vince.
Bullshit! Here's what happened.
You and J.
Lo here went on the perv run.
Eh? You saw a couple of glamours.
You backed up to cop an eyeful.
But I guess with all that blood rushing to your dicks, you couldn't see straight.
And then - bang! "Oh, no!" Am I right? Am I right?! It was an accident.
Accidents happen, Vince.
It was an accident, Vince.
If I find out you've been lying to me, and I will (SOFTLY) No-one says anything ever.
(SIGHS) You guys suck! Hey, Dean, you want your old job back? With Vince on the warpath? No, thanks.
How's Cam? Lara, what is it? I don't want to talk about it.
Team Leader? Jordan! A couple of factory workers near the accident this morning heard cries coming out of a manhole.
JORDAN: Our thief? Just get out there and find out.
Oh, and, Jordan don't run over or into anything.
HEIDI: Want me to drive? (SIREN WAILS) MAN: Over here, mate.
He's still down there.
He went quiet about five minutes ago.
I tried to help, but the smoke was too thick.
I found this.
DEAN: That's our thief's.
Rescue Base, looks like we've got him.
Copy that.
I'll let Detective Johnson know.
Over.
Let's do it.
JORDAN: Visibility's poor, Vince.
About three metres.
Yeah.
Where's that smoke coming from, over? Not sure.
Burning rubbish, maybe.
Place needs a good downpour to flush it out.
We've also got a fairly extensive fuel spill down here, possibly from the truck this morning.
Right.
I'm pulling you mob out.
The fireys can deal with this.
Over.
Wait, wait! VINCE: Jordan, do you copy? We've got him.
DEAN: He's got a pulse.
Rescue Team Leader, this is Michelle.
What are his obs? JORDAN: Patient has a head injury, chest injury, possible fractured rib and perforated lung, and a fractured arm.
You got all that, Vince? Yeah.
Copy that.
Ventilate him and get him out of there.
Over.
JORDAN: Copy.
How is he? Alive.
First time I'm glad to see you.
Save me a trip to your office.
Settle, Detective.
This kid's gonna clear me.
You might be making a few more trips to my office than you think.
What's going on? Nothing.
Michelle? Nothing! He's offered me a job.
(CHUCKLES) He what?! I'll, um leave you two alone.
Well, that'd be a first.
A job? Mm.
More money for less hours.
I was gonna talk to you about it tonight.
You're not serious? The guy broke in here.
I thought he was innocent until proven guilty.
You're defending him? (SIGHS) You can't accept.
I haven't.
Oh, you mean you won't or you haven't yet? lan (MAN COUGHS) JORDAN: Patient's coming back.
DEAN: That's it, mate.
Come on, mate.
Come on.
JORDAN: Rescue Team Leader to Rescue 3 Portable, he's back.
Let's have the Sked, Lara.
Rescue 4 Portable, she's travelling now, Jordan.
JORDAN: Copy that.
Got it? LARA: Yeah.
Got it.
JORDAN: Rescue Base, is there any way we can avoid going back up the manhole? Hang five.
I'll see if I can find an outfall nearby.
Over.
LARA: Nice place to hide out.
DEAN: Must have got disoriented.
Wandered about.
A few of these things laying around.
My guess is he turfed one, set some sort of a garbage fire.
(GROANS WEAKLY) JORDAN: Hey, wait.
Wait.
He's coming around.
Stay with us.
Stay with us, mate.
What's your name? Talk to me.
What's your name? MAN: John.
JORDAN: Check if he's got ID.
What's your name, mate? Johnson.
John? John? OK, hang in there, John.
Rescue Base, patient's name is John.
Wait, wait.
Guys, guys.
Whoa.
Scratch that, Vince.
LARA: He's a cop? Mate, is your name John or is it Shane? John.
Johnson.
I want Detective Johnson.
Uh, Vince, there's something you want to be hearing.
Say again, mate.
Detective Johnson.
"In and out," he said.
"Easy.
" (COUGHS) No-one would get hurt.
You gettin' all that, Vince? Uh, yeah.
No way.
This is bullshit.
I don't know the kid.
You planned this, didn't you, huh? Admit it.
This is a set-up.
Are you serious? lan, what what's going on? Rescue Base to all units, we still have a rescue to complete.
I need all hands on deck.
Jordan, that exit's on its way.
JORDAN: Smoke's getting worse.
Who is he? No-one.
Just a kid straight out of the academy.
Oh, a kid you nearly killed.
You lied to me.
We risked our lives because of you! Michelle, listen.
I can explain.
No, you can't! You had somebody break in here and surveil me.
How could you do that to me?! It wasn't a break-in! It was a police operation.
If you'd just stayed in the car like I told you! He's crashing.
DEAN: Alright, we need to get him in the Sked.
LARA: I'll hook him up to my air.
DEAN: Jordan, Jordan, we need to move, mate.
JORDAN: Vince, what's the exit plan? Yeah.
Stand by, Jordan.
What police operation? Life Blood have been committing corporate espionage, OK? We had to correlate their business decisions with your diary entries! Get out of it.
That's an absolute lie.
JORDAN: We can't wait.
Let's get him out the manhole.
DEAN: Good call, Jordan.
Let's get him on the Sked.
LARA: OK.
JORDAN: You ready? LARA: Yeah.
One, two, three.
Michelle, listen.
You're gonna have to believe me.
I don't.
What makes you think I believe you? Huh? All your after-hours work and work on the weekends is just a crock! You've been hooking up with this dirtbag, and your diary entries prove it! You just crossed the line, mate.
Oh, no, mate.
You crossed the line when you started screwing my wife.
Hey! Hey! You better leave, alright? Talk to you later, Michelle.
Oh.
At your next meeting? Michelle! You're outta here.
Michelle VINCE: Go! (COUGHS) JORDAN: Vince? Come in, Vince.
JORDAN: Vince, come in.
This is Rescue Base.
Sorry, Jordan.
Back on board.
What happened? VINCE: Tell you later.
Sitrep.
We're evacuating the patient via the manhole.
BP and pulse are holding.
Copy that.
Right decision.
Rescue Base out.
DEAN: Poor Michelle.
Who would have thought lan would lose it like that? JORDAN: Goes to show.
You never really know about people.
LARA: No.
JORDAN: Rescue 3 Portable, ready for evac.
Rescue 4 Portable, copy that.
Ram fan's coming out now.
JORDAN: Alright.
Prepare to lift.
Lift.
LARA: Can't see two metres.
DEAN: Just in front of you.
Go straight through, and feet this way.
Back it up.
OK, and lower, and rest.
Rest.
(SIREN WAILS) JORDAN: Let's have the rope.
Right.
On belay! JORDAN: OK, bring him up.
LARA: Jordan, take this.
JORDAN: We've got fire.
Get him up! DEAN: Lara, wait! Jordan, just go.
I've got her.
Jordan, Dean, what's going on down there? What's happening? Jordan, do you copy? Lara, we need to move.
You go.
Lara, move back.
We're losing it.
Vince, we got a serious fire problem down here.
How serious? Extinguishers are out! LARA: We're cut off.
Hey, you OK? Alright, it's only a couple of metres.
We'll make a run for it.
Listen.
Wait for the fireys.
We wait, we can fry.
We can make it.
I want to wait.
CHASE: Dean! Can you hear me? (SHOUTS) Lara! Damn it, Vince.
Where's the fireys? They taking the scenic route? You hear those sirens? They're a minute away, over.
A minute's too long.
They'll be dead.
I'm going back in.
That's a negative, Jordan.
You wait till the fireys have that location secured.
Over.
Lara, we have to move.
Come on, trust me.
Don't! I don't trust you! I don't care what you think.
I know what happened! I could have held on! You wait, Jordan.
That's what Dean would have done.
Let's get in there.
(SIREN WAILS) Jordan? You wrecked everything, Dean! You destroyed Cam.
You ruined what we had! (COUGHS) Alright, that's enough.
Come on.
Come on! Come on! No.
There! There! Get her up! JORDAN: We're up.
Dean! (LARA COUGHS) (DEAN COUGHS) Vince, it's all good.
We got 'em.
We got 'em.
Good work, Jordan.
Where's Lara? She's Lara! Lara! How is everyone? Smoked, but OK.
How's Michelle? Not good.
Lara come back? Jumped into her car and took off.
What happened? Uh, Dean.
Jordan, Vince, I'm taking a half-day.
You right without me? We'll try our best.
CHASE: Wait up.
You want some company, you know, if you wanted to talk? Nah.
Thanks.
JORDAN: Him and Lara are gonna sort it out, yeah? Yeah.
I honestly don't know.
But until then, what I do know is this unit's in good hands.
Thanks, boss.
What's that look? It's called respect, Jordan.
Really? Mine's hunger.
I could smash a burger.
Sounds like a plan.
I know a great place on Crown Street.
Agh.
Dream on, perverts.
(CHUCKLES) (SIGHS) What a mess.
Oh, lan.
(SIGHS) And Lara and Dean.
I don't know where to start.
Hmm.
I'm supposed to be on holidays, you know? Come on.
I'll give you a ride home.
I gotta get a media statement prepared.
(SIGHS) Let's go! Yeah.
Hey.
Uh, they moved him to a to rehab.
To another clinic.
He, uh he didn't tell me where.
Maybe you should check out the front.
Ah.
He didn't He didn't tell me for a reason.
(SNIFFS) It's not fair.
No.
Cam didn't deserve it.
No-one does.
We had him, Dean.
Right there.
And then we we just let him go.
Lara, I'm sorry.
Me too.
(SNIFFS) SONG: # See them crawlin' # Their faces on the ground # My heart keeps jumpin' # I want to stay around # Now they can't hear me # I ain't too young to die # But before I let you take me # You gotta look me in the eyes # I'm gonna get a little dirty # I'm gonna get a little dirty # I'm gonna get a little dirty, yeah # I'm gonna get a little dirty, yeah # I'm gonna get a little dirty.
#
We're the new face of Rescue.
Spirit of cooperation? Yes.
Working together? Exactly.
Cam Jackson, Life Blood unit leader.
LARA: Cam! Argh! Dean! I've got you.
I've got you! Think we can make it to that awning? Alright, Cam, don't do this.
If Dean and I cut loose, we've got a chance! DEAN: Three! No! I can't move.
(SIREN WAILS) MICHELLE: It's been a year since Council promised to widen this road.
It is killing our response times.
Take it up with them on Monday.
We're going on holiday.
If Rescue hasn't imploded by then.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I just feel really guilty, taking off, like, so soon after Cam's accident.
Michelle, you're taking Friday off.
They can do without you for one day.
We booked this two months ago.
Well, two months ago, Dean and Lara weren't ready to kill one another, were they? Oh, man.
Oh, God! Hayden Bradley wanted to meet.
So, cancel.
About Cam is my guess.
I should have my incident report just in case he wants to Michelle, no! Just two minutes.
This is our time! Two minutes! OK? I promise.
OK, OK.
Alright, that'll help.
Dean and Chase must be on mobile patrol.
Flight leaves at 7 am.
No refunds, Michelle.
It's open.
(DEVICE BEEPS) What?! (DEVICE BEEPS) Hello? (SOFT CLATTERING) Dean? (CLUNKING) (SCREAMS) Hey! Hey! Hey! Oi! Oi! Jesus! Come on, come on! Michelle, wait! MICHELLE: (SHOUTS) Hey! Stop! Stop! Hey! Look out! SONG: # Mmm, mmm, mmm # Real dark and dirty # Gonna get a little dirty, yeah # I'm gonna get a little # Dirty, yeah # Gonna get a little dirty.
# (SIREN WAILS) So, this is Michelle's idea of a dirty weekend.
I don't think weekends are in her vocabulary.
Michelle? That our burglar? No.
That's the other driver.
The kid's stuck under the sedan.
Car's dragged him over the edge.
His foot's trapped.
Orange last time I checked.
BP and pulse are steady.
Red here, though.
Impalement.
Alright.
Onto it.
Rescue Team Leader to Rescue Base.
Vince, what's the ETA on our ambo? Yeah, this is Rescue Base.
We're looking at 10 minutes plus.
Better put a rocket under 'em.
Looks like we got our hands full here.
Will do, Dean.
Rescue Base out.
Alright, guys, let's get a move on.
I want to chock up that black ute.
I want stabilisation on that car and I want to know what's coming out of those drums.
You go.
Look, Lara We've got work to do.
(SIGHS) Still anger.
Second stage of grief.
I thought they'd at least be up to bargaining by now.
They need to bury the hatchet before someone gets hurt.
Someone did get hurt, remember? Heidi, we'll take the kid under the car.
We will? Yep.
DEAN: You two, let's go.
Where are we at? I think it's missed everything vital.
Check it out.
How are you, mate? My name's Dean.
I'm from Rescue.
Bloody kid with a hood just come from nowhere.
He's OK? You did well, mate.
You did well.
We're gonna get you out of here.
Chase, keep eyes on.
Alright.
Pipe's gone straight through him, into the seat.
He's pinned fast.
I'd say that it's just missed his carotid.
Good, good.
MICHELLE: (ON RADIO) Heidi, we got a name out of that burglar yet? We're on our way down now.
We'll let you know when we do.
Alright.
I'll I'll be over there as soon as I'm finished here.
Copy that.
Lara, wait.
MAN: My foot's stuck.
I can't get it out.
You gotta slow down.
Sorry.
I just had to get away.
I can't breathe when Dean's around.
Just it makes me want to scream.
Lara, it's Dean.
You know he would have done everything he could have.
He cut Cam's rope.
To save you.
I didn't need saving.
Cam did.
Lara, Cam he did survive, you know? From that height, they both really should have been It wasn't Dean's call to make.
It was mine.
It just it didn't have to happen.
MAN: Help, damn it! Move your arse! You deal with him.
I'll secure the car.
(MAN PANTS) (GRUNTS) We're just securing the car.
Can you tell me where the pain is? Where do you reckon? My leg.
CHASE: This guy should buy a lottery ticket.
Yeah.
I'm sure he's feeling real lucky at the moment.
Dean, where do you want us? Dean? Yeah.
Uh Michelle, take the other driver.
Nose to toes.
Get a hard collar on him.
Jordan, get foam on the fuel spill out there.
Alright.
These pipes are copper.
Power saw's gonna heat them up, so we'll have to cut him out by hand.
(SIGHS) Hang in there, mate.
Keep an eye on him.
Yeah, we are.
I got a pack of smokes in my pocket.
Light us up one, would ya? I'm dying here.
You gotta be kidding me, right? Here.
You can have a puff on that.
It's pain relief.
So, you got a name? Anyone we can call for you? So, what were you doing at our station house, then? I got lost.
Oh, you're funny.
What were you photocopying? My butt.
Original.
I can show you the original, if you want.
You know you crash-tackled a detective's wife, genius? I know a lot of things.
Rescue Base to Rescue 5 Portable.
We have a problem, Michelle.
Yeah, go on.
The cops reckon the burglar might have known our security system.
Over.
How?! When we've freed the burglar, I will ask him.
How's he holding up? Not going anywhere.
Neither are we.
Sorry, lan.
If I'd stayed in the car, we'd be on our way to Cairns by now.
Ah, well, there's always next weekend.
Until some other catastrophe intervenes.
Love you.
You too.
BP is stabilising.
(GROANS) What - are they paying you lot by the hour? Slow and steady wins the race, mate.
Rescue 2 Portable to Rescue Team Leader, we're getting subsidence here.
Request an extra set of hands to extract the patient.
You guys OK? Yeah, copy that, Rescue 2 Portable.
I'm on my way.
(CHUCKLES) What, you're knocking off already, you slack bastard? These two will take over.
They'll get you out, OK? Wish me luck.
Good luck.
They're talking.
That's a start.
Start of what? World War III? What are you waiting for? You're Rescue, aren't you? Rescue me! Keep your hood on.
What have we got? Leg's caught.
Left arm's fractured.
Possible concussion.
We gotta get him out before the whole slope goes.
(CAR CREAKS) Don't move.
(DEAN GRUNTS) Alright.
His foot's caught up in the steering mechanism.
I'm gonna need you to turn the wheel for me.
Nah.
It's stuck.
Stand back.
Uh, Dean, we're in.
Alright, turn the wheel counterclockwise.
Yep.
Keep going! Yep, that's it.
That's the way.
Keep going! (GRUNTS) Whoa! Whoa! That's it.
That's it.
Damn it.
Alright.
Knife.
No! You are not cutting my foot off.
Relax.
I'm only gonna amputate your shoe.
Trust me.
Trust you? You're the bloody assassin.
Assassin? Guy who tried to take out his climbing partner.
If the name fits Hurry, Dean! We're losing it! Dean, hurry! Alright, he's free.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Guys, move it! Lara! Guys, are you OK? Get off! Get off me! I don't need your help! I can take care of myself.
You had no right.
Alright, just take it easy.
I could have saved him! It wasn't your call! Lara, hey! He is never gonna walk again.
Do you get that?! You crippled him.
MICHELLE: What happened? Is everyone alright? Yeah.
(SIREN WAILS) Where'd he go? The patient - where did he go? (DISTANT SIREN WAILS) He's tachy.
He's got several broken ribs, internal bleeding.
But he's gonna make it.
Good.
So, it's not a complete balls-up.
Was that a compliment? I'll take it.
Michelle, we did save the kid's life.
Where is he? Three of you there, and you let a severely compromised patient, who's wanted by the police, get away.
What happened? Lara happened, OK? She lost it.
I I know she's been doing it tough since Cam's accident, but she needs to step back.
She needs to take some time out.
She's not coping.
Just Lara? I'm fine.
The team's not.
You wor Do you have their confidence? (SHOUTS) Do you have their confidence, Dean?! See ya.
Where's she going? I I don't know.
The hospital.
Look, what do you want from me, Vince? I'm not gonna step down.
(SIREN WAILS) Hey, forget it! I didn't do anything wrong.
The incident review cleared me.
Just for the short term, Dean, OK? We're not saying forever.
Just until you and Lara get over this.
Right? OK, alright.
I'll do it for the team.
But if you think that this is for the short term, then you two are kidding yourselves.
Lara thinks that I put Cam in a wheelchair.
We're not just gonna get over it.
LARA: Hi.
Hey.
There she is.
Sorry.
I'm I'm interrupting.
No, no, no.
Come in.
We can do this later, if you like.
Yep.
You can leave the basin, if you want.
I can do it.
Oh, Lara, you don't have to do that.
I want to.
I guess I'm not in a position to argue.
(CHUCKLES) You look smashed.
Are you sleeping? Oh.
You know when I can.
How are you feeling? Now, which part are you asking? Above the torso, I feel like I've just done three rounds with Tyson.
Below, I They said you had feeling in your feet.
Yeah, I got phantom pains.
My body won't accept my back's broken.
Yesterday, I woke up and tried to stand up, and fell out of bed.
Hey, beautiful you gotta stay positive, OK? Mm-hm.
We rescued this surfer once with a broken C2.
Mm.
And just a few months ago, he walked right into the station house to thank us.
Yep.
Modern medicine.
I'll be fine.
I felt that.
It's OK.
It's OK.
"Assassin.
" Where'd the little smart arse get that from? What, you heard it?! Don't bullshit me, Chase.
Well, it's been going around the Emergency Services.
I thought you'd know.
Hey, it could be a term of respect.
The 'Assassin'.
It means you're slick, professional.
You get the job done.
Yeah, I'm sure that's exactly what it means, Chase.
Hey, how do you reckon that guy knew about Dean? Sticks and stones.
Put yourself out there, they give you a nickname.
Heidi-ho, Jay-Z.
Oh, please! What? It's my initials - JZ.
Oh, yeah? Well, say g'day to Beyonce for me.
VINCE: (ON RADIO) Rescue Command to Rescue Team Leader, sitrep.
Rescue Command to Rescue Team Leader, do you read? He's talking to you.
Oh, yeah.
Rescue Team Leader here.
Um Vince, we've searched the surrounding area.
There's no sign of the patient.
Righto.
Head back.
This is a cop matter now.
Rescue Command out.
Copy that.
Rescue Team Leader to all units, uh, let's head back in.
Uh, Dean, are you cool with that? DEAN: Whatever you think, Jordan.
You're the Unit Leader.
Hey, Acting Unit Leader.
Here.
Another one.
(READS) "11:30am to 4pm.
HB lunch.
" That's a long lunch.
We had a lot to talk about.
You don't see a pattern here? Every second day, there's a mention of Hayden Bradley or Life Blood.
(READS) "5pm to 6pm.
HB, Alto Bar.
" We were discussing a new funding initiative.
Sorry, lan.
Nothing.
It's up to your mob now.
It's not your fault.
I shoulda had a hold of the little prick when I had the chance.
What's this? Work diary.
Who'd be interested in that? Hayden Bradley.
He might want to know who you're talking to.
VINCE: Why? Life Blood's the competition, aren't they? How many times has Hayden undercut you or beaten you to the punch on contracts? And didn't that kid use some Emergency Services nickname on Dean? The Assassin.
Yeah.
The kind of cheap shot I'd expect from Life Blood.
Mm-hm.
But to break in? That's a bit of a risk, don't you think? Unless he had a security pass.
Which are only handed out to Rescue staff.
You're not a suspect, Heidi.
It sounds like it.
We just want you to think back.
At the Life Blood offices, did you ever misplace your security pass? Why me, Michelle? You spend more time with Hayden Bradley than I do flying his choppers.
You don't seem to realise, Heidi.
They are the competition.
Really? I thought you were building a constructive working arrangement.
Thank you, Heidi.
But you can't accuse me Go.
(SIGHS) What?! Well, you have been seeing a bit of Hayden.
(JORDAN WHISTLES) I'm not a dog.
Fixed these BAs yet? Hey, settle, buddy.
They'll be done when they're done.
Finish up, mate, 'cause we're gonna hit the road.
Evidence wants the truck cleaned still.
Nah, it can wait.
Dude, it's like Siberia in here.
Give 'em some space.
They'll have to talk to each other.
I think you might have had your first good idea.
OK.
Where are you two sneaking off to? Mobile patrol.
Oh, count me in.
If I'm here when Michelle gets back, I might say something I'd regret.
It's more of a two-man operation.
Yeah? Where are they, then? You know the truck needs cleanin'? So? So, I'm Unit Leader.
Acting Unit Leader, hot shot.
HEIDI: Hurry up.
CHASE: Righto.
Seriously, how much did you slip Vince? Why'd he make you unit leader? It's obvious.
Is it? Well, I'm the most talented, the most responsible Jordan, your mum still does your washing.
Scoreboard, guys.
Scoreboard.
Hey, coming up to Crown Street.
What's at Crown Street? I already told you.
Mobile patrol.
HEIDI: Wait a minute.
This is a perv run, isn't it? I don't know what you're talking about.
Hey, ladies! CHASE: Hi! HEIDI: God, this is so sad.
We should do this every morning.
Hey, you're the boss.
Help me, someone.
Please! I think it's clean.
Yeah.
I think you might be right.
Looks like we've been abandoned.
Looks like it.
I think they're hoping that we'll talk to each other.
Nothing more to say.
Lara.
Dean, don't.
Lara, hey, listen.
Listen.
I'm sorry, OK? But no-one could have stopped Cam from falling.
Not me, not you.
No-one.
It was an accident.
I gotta get back to the hospital.
Say hi to Cam for me.
Say hi yourself.
(SIGHS) HEIDI: OK, enough.
Let's go! JZ, Unit Commander, Special Ops.
This is, uh, my wing commander, Chase, at your service.
Actually, he's my wingman.
I'm not with them! Hey, Jordan, glamour, nine o'clock.
Where? Just passed.
Back it up.
Back it up.
Yep.
Yeah, yeah.
Keep going.
Jordan! Jordan! (SMASH!) Go forward! Forward! Forward! (ONLOOKERS JEER) Shit.
(CAMERAS CLICK) We're dead.
Tell me about it.
My first rescue as Unit Team Leader, and it's me.
Vince is gonna pop a friggin' heart valve.
What are you gonna tell him? Why don't you tell him you tried to mate a Patrol with a hatchback? Haven't you idiots ever heard of a nightclub? That's the accepted place to perv on the opposite sex.
Don't look at me.
I was following orders.
Sure you were.
Serves you both right.
You could help, you know? (SIGHS) We're gonna need a rope and a winch to drag this off.
You forgot the shovel.
Dig yourselves a hole.
MAN: My car! Which one of you clowns is JZ? Someone's worded him up.
Knows exactly where the cameras are.
Look.
Well, too bad for him we've got six eyewitnesses.
He's taking a call.
Look.
VINCE: Doesn't look like good news.
Someone's told him that I'm coming.
Could be.
A second person keeping watch outside.
(MICHELLE SCREAMS ON RECORDING) Who are you working for, you little bastard? Michelle, you got company.
Hey.
Sorry, Michelle.
Sorry for? Well, I was trying to get away earlier for our meeting Oh! Oh.
which you obviously forgot about.
Meeting's off.
Excuse me? You heard.
Scoot.
lan.
VINCE: Come up to the office, mate.
MICHELLE: Good.
Come here.
It's all here, mate.
HAYDEN: Is this a bad time? Why don't you check her diary? Take it easy, Deano.
You should cut contact with that weasel.
We did have a meeting scheduled.
Yeah.
So, he can lower your defences and sweet-talk his way out of trouble.
Why do I feel like I'm the one under investigation here? 'Cause Hayden Bradley's got you wrapped around his little finger, and you don't even know it or maybe you like it.
I don't know.
(IAN STARTS CAR) Everything alright? Yeah.
Just one of those days.
I'm hearin' you.
(SIGHS) We'll get through it.
Yeah.
Dean just can't admit that he's made a mistake, and now he's got Vince and Michelle on his side.
And as if anyone's ever gonna question the great Dean's version of events.
Maybe Dean made a good case.
They weren't there on the side of the building.
I was.
So was I, Lara.
Stop that! It's the nurse's job.
I I don't mind.
I do! Stop it.
Listen we both made the choice to cut the rope - Dean and me.
We've both made peace with it.
You spoke to him? He came to see me a couple of times.
But You can't keep blaming the poor guy.
No, Cam Look, he made the right choice! You know, we all could have died.
No.
I could have held on.
This didn't have to happen.
Well, it did! We have to accept it.
I just don't know if I can do that with you.
Don't say that.
I'm gonna look after you.
I've got long service.
I'll take time off.
I don't want to be your patient, Lara.
And trust me, you don't want to be my nurse.
(SIGHS) Look, I don't know the right way to say this.
But when I see you it reminds me of how I used to be.
Hey.
And I can't be in that head space.
And I know it it kills you to see me like this.
No.
Cam, that's not true.
I can see it in your face.
Please.
I want to look after you.
Lara, don't How are we going? Do you need a hand here? Yes.
Cam? Look at me.
Please look at me.
We're gonna get through this.
I promise you.
Cam Sure.
Yep.
I'll see you later.
You're serious? You think I hired someone to break into the station house? To what - to steal trade secrets? We are the competition.
(CHUCKLES) Hardly.
No offence, Michelle, but the Life Blood operating budget is much larger than Rescue.
We've got the best equipment money can buy, and I've got the Minister's ear.
Look (CLEARS THROAT) There's only one thing here I want, and that's you.
(CHUCKLES) Which is why I wanted this meeting.
The way you've held this unit together since Cam's accident, your grace under fire, your work ethic, your loyalty I'm in awe.
No, seriously.
You are wasted in the public service.
I want you on my team.
No, no, no.
lan said that you'd try something like this.
Now, why why have you come here, really? Well, that's for a four-day week, which means more time with your son and more time with lan.
Nobody is worth that much.
I can make it less, if you want.
VINCE: Well, get it off the car, and get your sorry arses back here.
Over! Who's next on the list? Heidi? Chase? Our acting unit leader has already written off a car and buggered a Patrol.
(SIGHS) Everything OK? Yeah.
Good.
Thanks, Vince.
We're fine.
Right.
(WHISPERS) What is wrong with you? Is there ever a time you guys don't think about sex? When you're having sex.
VINCE: Run it by me again.
Well, we were looking for a park.
I didn't see the car behind me.
You know, these Patrols, all the blind spots.
Yep.
You want to tell me what really happened? Yeah.
What Jordan said.
It was an accident.
These things just happen, Vince.
Bullshit! Here's what happened.
You and J.
Lo here went on the perv run.
Eh? You saw a couple of glamours.
You backed up to cop an eyeful.
But I guess with all that blood rushing to your dicks, you couldn't see straight.
And then - bang! "Oh, no!" Am I right? Am I right?! It was an accident.
Accidents happen, Vince.
It was an accident, Vince.
If I find out you've been lying to me, and I will (SOFTLY) No-one says anything ever.
(SIGHS) You guys suck! Hey, Dean, you want your old job back? With Vince on the warpath? No, thanks.
How's Cam? Lara, what is it? I don't want to talk about it.
Team Leader? Jordan! A couple of factory workers near the accident this morning heard cries coming out of a manhole.
JORDAN: Our thief? Just get out there and find out.
Oh, and, Jordan don't run over or into anything.
HEIDI: Want me to drive? (SIREN WAILS) MAN: Over here, mate.
He's still down there.
He went quiet about five minutes ago.
I tried to help, but the smoke was too thick.
I found this.
DEAN: That's our thief's.
Rescue Base, looks like we've got him.
Copy that.
I'll let Detective Johnson know.
Over.
Let's do it.
JORDAN: Visibility's poor, Vince.
About three metres.
Yeah.
Where's that smoke coming from, over? Not sure.
Burning rubbish, maybe.
Place needs a good downpour to flush it out.
We've also got a fairly extensive fuel spill down here, possibly from the truck this morning.
Right.
I'm pulling you mob out.
The fireys can deal with this.
Over.
Wait, wait! VINCE: Jordan, do you copy? We've got him.
DEAN: He's got a pulse.
Rescue Team Leader, this is Michelle.
What are his obs? JORDAN: Patient has a head injury, chest injury, possible fractured rib and perforated lung, and a fractured arm.
You got all that, Vince? Yeah.
Copy that.
Ventilate him and get him out of there.
Over.
JORDAN: Copy.
How is he? Alive.
First time I'm glad to see you.
Save me a trip to your office.
Settle, Detective.
This kid's gonna clear me.
You might be making a few more trips to my office than you think.
What's going on? Nothing.
Michelle? Nothing! He's offered me a job.
(CHUCKLES) He what?! I'll, um leave you two alone.
Well, that'd be a first.
A job? Mm.
More money for less hours.
I was gonna talk to you about it tonight.
You're not serious? The guy broke in here.
I thought he was innocent until proven guilty.
You're defending him? (SIGHS) You can't accept.
I haven't.
Oh, you mean you won't or you haven't yet? lan (MAN COUGHS) JORDAN: Patient's coming back.
DEAN: That's it, mate.
Come on, mate.
Come on.
JORDAN: Rescue Team Leader to Rescue 3 Portable, he's back.
Let's have the Sked, Lara.
Rescue 4 Portable, she's travelling now, Jordan.
JORDAN: Copy that.
Got it? LARA: Yeah.
Got it.
JORDAN: Rescue Base, is there any way we can avoid going back up the manhole? Hang five.
I'll see if I can find an outfall nearby.
Over.
LARA: Nice place to hide out.
DEAN: Must have got disoriented.
Wandered about.
A few of these things laying around.
My guess is he turfed one, set some sort of a garbage fire.
(GROANS WEAKLY) JORDAN: Hey, wait.
Wait.
He's coming around.
Stay with us.
Stay with us, mate.
What's your name? Talk to me.
What's your name? MAN: John.
JORDAN: Check if he's got ID.
What's your name, mate? Johnson.
John? John? OK, hang in there, John.
Rescue Base, patient's name is John.
Wait, wait.
Guys, guys.
Whoa.
Scratch that, Vince.
LARA: He's a cop? Mate, is your name John or is it Shane? John.
Johnson.
I want Detective Johnson.
Uh, Vince, there's something you want to be hearing.
Say again, mate.
Detective Johnson.
"In and out," he said.
"Easy.
" (COUGHS) No-one would get hurt.
You gettin' all that, Vince? Uh, yeah.
No way.
This is bullshit.
I don't know the kid.
You planned this, didn't you, huh? Admit it.
This is a set-up.
Are you serious? lan, what what's going on? Rescue Base to all units, we still have a rescue to complete.
I need all hands on deck.
Jordan, that exit's on its way.
JORDAN: Smoke's getting worse.
Who is he? No-one.
Just a kid straight out of the academy.
Oh, a kid you nearly killed.
You lied to me.
We risked our lives because of you! Michelle, listen.
I can explain.
No, you can't! You had somebody break in here and surveil me.
How could you do that to me?! It wasn't a break-in! It was a police operation.
If you'd just stayed in the car like I told you! He's crashing.
DEAN: Alright, we need to get him in the Sked.
LARA: I'll hook him up to my air.
DEAN: Jordan, Jordan, we need to move, mate.
JORDAN: Vince, what's the exit plan? Yeah.
Stand by, Jordan.
What police operation? Life Blood have been committing corporate espionage, OK? We had to correlate their business decisions with your diary entries! Get out of it.
That's an absolute lie.
JORDAN: We can't wait.
Let's get him out the manhole.
DEAN: Good call, Jordan.
Let's get him on the Sked.
LARA: OK.
JORDAN: You ready? LARA: Yeah.
One, two, three.
Michelle, listen.
You're gonna have to believe me.
I don't.
What makes you think I believe you? Huh? All your after-hours work and work on the weekends is just a crock! You've been hooking up with this dirtbag, and your diary entries prove it! You just crossed the line, mate.
Oh, no, mate.
You crossed the line when you started screwing my wife.
Hey! Hey! You better leave, alright? Talk to you later, Michelle.
Oh.
At your next meeting? Michelle! You're outta here.
Michelle VINCE: Go! (COUGHS) JORDAN: Vince? Come in, Vince.
JORDAN: Vince, come in.
This is Rescue Base.
Sorry, Jordan.
Back on board.
What happened? VINCE: Tell you later.
Sitrep.
We're evacuating the patient via the manhole.
BP and pulse are holding.
Copy that.
Right decision.
Rescue Base out.
DEAN: Poor Michelle.
Who would have thought lan would lose it like that? JORDAN: Goes to show.
You never really know about people.
LARA: No.
JORDAN: Rescue 3 Portable, ready for evac.
Rescue 4 Portable, copy that.
Ram fan's coming out now.
JORDAN: Alright.
Prepare to lift.
Lift.
LARA: Can't see two metres.
DEAN: Just in front of you.
Go straight through, and feet this way.
Back it up.
OK, and lower, and rest.
Rest.
(SIREN WAILS) JORDAN: Let's have the rope.
Right.
On belay! JORDAN: OK, bring him up.
LARA: Jordan, take this.
JORDAN: We've got fire.
Get him up! DEAN: Lara, wait! Jordan, just go.
I've got her.
Jordan, Dean, what's going on down there? What's happening? Jordan, do you copy? Lara, we need to move.
You go.
Lara, move back.
We're losing it.
Vince, we got a serious fire problem down here.
How serious? Extinguishers are out! LARA: We're cut off.
Hey, you OK? Alright, it's only a couple of metres.
We'll make a run for it.
Listen.
Wait for the fireys.
We wait, we can fry.
We can make it.
I want to wait.
CHASE: Dean! Can you hear me? (SHOUTS) Lara! Damn it, Vince.
Where's the fireys? They taking the scenic route? You hear those sirens? They're a minute away, over.
A minute's too long.
They'll be dead.
I'm going back in.
That's a negative, Jordan.
You wait till the fireys have that location secured.
Over.
Lara, we have to move.
Come on, trust me.
Don't! I don't trust you! I don't care what you think.
I know what happened! I could have held on! You wait, Jordan.
That's what Dean would have done.
Let's get in there.
(SIREN WAILS) Jordan? You wrecked everything, Dean! You destroyed Cam.
You ruined what we had! (COUGHS) Alright, that's enough.
Come on.
Come on! Come on! No.
There! There! Get her up! JORDAN: We're up.
Dean! (LARA COUGHS) (DEAN COUGHS) Vince, it's all good.
We got 'em.
We got 'em.
Good work, Jordan.
Where's Lara? She's Lara! Lara! How is everyone? Smoked, but OK.
How's Michelle? Not good.
Lara come back? Jumped into her car and took off.
What happened? Uh, Dean.
Jordan, Vince, I'm taking a half-day.
You right without me? We'll try our best.
CHASE: Wait up.
You want some company, you know, if you wanted to talk? Nah.
Thanks.
JORDAN: Him and Lara are gonna sort it out, yeah? Yeah.
I honestly don't know.
But until then, what I do know is this unit's in good hands.
Thanks, boss.
What's that look? It's called respect, Jordan.
Really? Mine's hunger.
I could smash a burger.
Sounds like a plan.
I know a great place on Crown Street.
Agh.
Dream on, perverts.
(CHUCKLES) (SIGHS) What a mess.
Oh, lan.
(SIGHS) And Lara and Dean.
I don't know where to start.
Hmm.
I'm supposed to be on holidays, you know? Come on.
I'll give you a ride home.
I gotta get a media statement prepared.
(SIGHS) Let's go! Yeah.
Hey.
Uh, they moved him to a to rehab.
To another clinic.
He, uh he didn't tell me where.
Maybe you should check out the front.
Ah.
He didn't He didn't tell me for a reason.
(SNIFFS) It's not fair.
No.
Cam didn't deserve it.
No-one does.
We had him, Dean.
Right there.
And then we we just let him go.
Lara, I'm sorry.
Me too.
(SNIFFS) SONG: # See them crawlin' # Their faces on the ground # My heart keeps jumpin' # I want to stay around # Now they can't hear me # I ain't too young to die # But before I let you take me # You gotta look me in the eyes # I'm gonna get a little dirty # I'm gonna get a little dirty # I'm gonna get a little dirty, yeah # I'm gonna get a little dirty, yeah # I'm gonna get a little dirty.
