George is on
the precipice of a folly.

A gold-digger?

Oh, go to the house. Do whatever
you can to break this woman's hold.

You wouldn't be offended
if I went to the city, would you?

Why Andrew? You've shown
no interest so far. Why now?

Where are you going?

Promise me that, no matter
what you hear, that you trust me.

Well, there's a trade delegation
coming through.

You'd like me to play host.

The Japanese are no longer
our enemies.

Try telling that
to the people at Inverness.

I saw what the war did to you.

You go home
and you grieve your friend

like the man you are now,

not the man I saved you from.

I should introduce myself.
Sarah Adams.

Ah, yes.

The Jew.

It's OK.

It's only once a year.
You'll be fine.

I'm gonna show Livvy how we do
Guy Fawkes Night Down Under.

Want to come?

I'm happy to get stuck into this.

Bring me back a toffee apple.

Sweet tooth.

Enjoy your evening.

Last chance.

I'll stay and keep
your father company.

He has Leon Uris.
His book.

Go. Show your lovely wife off.
I'm happy here.

I'm offended.

Tales of men in battle

win out over my feminine charms?

I thought you'd be joining James.

You've seen one bonfire night,

you've seen them all.

And it was a chance for us
to have a private chat.

Sarah Adams, who is she?

She works at the hospital.

I know, but... I don't mean to pry.

Might she be
holding a torch for you?

What makes you think that?

Everyone at the hospital
has been so pleasant,

but she was rather brusque.

I know the evil eye when I see it,
and I'm not prone to paranoia.

Excuse me.

Ash Park.

It is, Mildred.

Put him through.

Sir Henry.

Not at all. Any time.

How can I help you?

I'd like to keep Elizabeth in
for a couple more days.

She's gonna be fine, but the longer
she stays in, the better.

Stress is the enemy.
I'm sure.

I didn't invite you here

to talk about Mother.

There's nothing I can get you?

No, I'm right.
Sit, please.

Nearly Armistice Day.

The year's raced by.

Yeah.

I'll spit it out.

I'm going to ask a favour.
A big one.

And I imagine you'll
find it hard to say yes.

OK.

Yesterday's enemies
are today's friends, Jack,

for political... economic reasons.

A Japanese trade delegation
are coming here on Monday,

and I've been asked to play host, to
meet and greet, to tour the district.

And what's that got to do with me?

It's just before Poppy Day.

And the timing stinks.

Everyone knows that you have more
reason to hold a grudge than any local,

so your involvement would go a long
way to silencing the 'anti' sentiment.

I know I'm asking a lot.
You have no bloody idea, George!

Jack...
Forget me. They killed your wife.

Yes, they did.
And you're gonna shake their hands?!

The war's eight years done, Jack.

The men whose hands I shake
didn't drop those bombs...

No, they were part of it!

We need to find a way ahead.

Yeah? Well, you can
do that without me.

I knew this would be hard
for you but...

Shove it up your arse, George!

I'm sorry, if you want to lick
their boots for a few bales of wool,

you do it on your own.

Jack.

Jack!

I'm not to be disturbed,
for any reason.

George?

I gather it went badly.

It did.

Well, you have all my support.

With Elizabeth in hospital,
I'm happy to play hostess.

I couldn't ask you to...
I want to help.

In any way I can.

You couldn't have timed
being here more perfectly.

I couldn't, could I?
No.

I saw it and I said to myself,

"What better way to cheer up
my mooching niece?"

You like?
It's nice.

Nice?

It's lovely.

It's yours.

Thank you.

Now you need somewhere to wear it.
I'm happy here.

You've sat around with
that long face for days.

Come on, why?

Why what?
This sudden visit.

I told you...

It's more than wanting
to get away from Regina.

Although I wouldn't blame you
if you did -

she is a bitch in sheep's clothing.

Yeah, well,
Father seems to like her.

He's just blinded by
her similarity to your mother.

Come on, truth.

Is it Gino? Have you argued?

I don't want to talk about it.

Got to be better than burying
your head in 'Forever Amber'.

You like those banned books.

At least they're honest about things.

About sex?

You're never told anything.

You're just told all the things
that you can't do.

And then you're supposed to
make it up as you go along.

And if you get it wrong...
if it just all goes wrong...

You're not.

I went to the doctor
the day that I arrived.

And I'm waiting on
the test results.

I'd better get moving.

This reception won't organise itself.
Good luck.

I might need it
without Jack's backing.

I'm glad I've got Regina to help.

Um, before you go...
Mmm?

Regina.

I don't understand
George's fascination.

The woman's hardly a beauty.

Oh, it's her strength
he admires, I suspect.

Positively Oedipal.

You're the only other strong woman
in his life.

There the resemblance ends.

I should hope so. Oy vey.

Might be wise to avoid that type
of expression with George.

I adjust my opinion
to suit my audience.

You really do dislike them,
don't you?

After what I saw in Jerusalem?

I'm not as forgiving as George.

He's about to kowtow to the Japs.

So the way that she said
the word 'Jew', that's it?

Yes.

Are you sure you're not
being overly sensitive?

She almost spat the word.

There seems to be
some kind of misunderstanding.

She thinks that...
you were rude to her.

I simply bumped into her
and introduced myself

and got, "Ah, the Jew,"
for my pains.

I was nothing but civil.

And we passed each other on
the way here - if looks could kill.

There might be
one possible explanation.

Her husband was part of
the British protectorate in '46

and they were in the Hotel David
when it was bombed.

In Jerusalem?
Mm-hm.

A number of her friends were killed.
I see.

A Zionist bomb. I'll speak with her.
No.

No, look, if it is a problem,
it's mine.

Give her another chance? Hmm?

I thought I said not to...

You heard.

Yes.

Your ticker doesn't need
to get mixed up in this.

No, it doesn't.
Explain how this is helping.

It reminds me of who I'd be betraying
if I said yes.

Bill Gregory.

And every mate I saw suffer
at their hands.

Go back to bed.

George should never have asked you.

Probably, but he did.

Jack, whatever you think
you owe us... you don't owe us this.

Even if my refusal
makes it tougher for him?

Oh. Some things come before family.

But there is one thing
I insist on in return.

That stays untouched.

Take it.

Good.

To protect you from the stress
of worrying, not me from myself.

I'm OK.

Hmm.

Even better.

You have to eat something.
I'm not hungry.

One for one?

Good girl. Time enough to worry when
you get the results, IF you have to.

I have this... feeling.
Which might be wrong.

If I am, will you...

We're not even going to discuss things
like that until you know for sure.

But you will help me, won't you?

With anything except an abortion.

But no-one would have to know.
I would.

Even black sheep have their limits.

It's not the morals or the ethics.

God forbid, it's not even the danger.
What then?

Tell me.

If you are pregnant, perhaps.
It's very complicated.

Tea and toast may be enough for you
but I am famished.

It's like listening
to a secret world.

A little girl.

What?

That is the first time you've even
suggested it might be a girl.

Really?

I think it's easier to think of
soft and pink and little girl things

when you're happier.

Just my silly theory.

It's not so silly.

I am happy.

We are.

I want a little copy of you.

I love you.

I love you.

Jack.

George.

Bloody Jap-lover.

Ah, you're here. Good.
We need to talk.

What's wrong?

I've just got a serve from Bert Ford.
About the visit?

Regina told me.

He might be the first
but he won't be the last.

For everyone who doesn't understand,
there will be others who do.

We need to look to the future.

You're preaching to the converted...
It's not just for trade.

We need Japan as a buffer
against China.

I am fully aware
of the practicalities.

Now, Jack...

Look, I understand
why you were asking him

and I can understand
why you might try to do it again,

but don't, please.

He's the one man in this town...

Yes, his seal of approval

could silence a lot of
the critics, of course.

But a man who's been through
what he has

needs to find forgiveness
in his own heart in his own time.

Do you think
this is easy for me?

Oh, George, of course I don't.
Of course not.

But Jack survived
unmentionable horrors for years,

and every one of them
had a Japanese face on it.

Let him be.

I'll give it a go.

Jack...
It's OK.

Can't guarantee I'll pull it off.

Thank you.
It's what you have to do, I know.

I'm not gonna let the likes
of Bert Ford use it against you.

Now, the minute it gets too hard...
I'll bail out, trust me.

Given what I owe you both,
I have to try.

You watch him.

Well, come on in.

Missy, it's for you.

I'm guessing it's not me
you're after.

Partly.

I'm going to the reception
for the Japs.

Spread the word at the pub?

And tell Bert Ford and his mates

that if a man who suffered by them
can accept it,

them as never put on a uniform can.

Good man.

Was there talk there tonight?

There was.

Yeah, well, I hope
this might shut it down.

A moment alone?

Right. I'll leave youse to it.
Goodnight.

You want a cup of tea?
Yeah.

Can't have been easy.

We're still burning Guy Fawkes
after 400 years,

but seemingly we're supposed to

forgive and forget the Japs
after eight.

Something inconsistent there.

I need a favour.
Of course.

I can't walk in alone.

I'm not invited.
I'm inviting you.

But it's...

I'm there with you,
or I'm not there at all.

I'm not too proud
to admit I need help.

Then you have it.

Thank you.

So if they need extra hands
at the reception, you will help, yes?

Yes, Mamma.
Good.

If I hear anything, I will tell you.

She'll come back for tomorrow,
I think, yes?

How would I know?

Gino...
Don't.

Perhaps she is starting to see
that this cannot work.

No.

Then why has she suddenly gone
with hardly a word?

She told me to trust her.

And would you be like this
if you did?

I am sorry, caro.
I know what I hope for.

Even if it breaks your heart.

She loves me.

Darling, all very
scandalous, I know,

but the sexual indiscretions
of horrible Henry

don't really interest me.

Andrew Swanson's father.

Oh, that is not a position
I wish to contemplate.

Bad enough thinking about
him on top of her

let alone collapsing on top of her.

Sir Henry took a turn mid-coitus
with his mistress.

The town is abuzz with the scandal.

Really?!

Really?

Really?

You have a problem, my darling.

Ah, good afternoon, Miss.
Come through.

Your call was a pleasant surprise.
I needed diversion.

Thank you for seeing me, Andrew.

So formal.
Has the gossip reached you?

Yes.
The old hypocrite. Serves him right.

Mother too
for turning too blind an eye.

Does that sound too harsh?
No.

So what makes me think
this isn't pleasure?

I won't beat around the bush.
Please don't.

I heard you're going to Ash Park
tomorrow in place of your father.

The jungle drums have been beating.

Are you?

While he lies in St Vincent's,

Mother and I are putting on
the sort of brave front

that's meant to silence gossip.

I see.

It's not the time to be
cancelling engagements.

Will you be there?
No.

What a shame.

So?

My aunt Regina has come
to stay with us.

I wanted to get away from her

so I made the excuse that
I was coming up here to see you.

Ah.

And I was wondering
if you wouldn't...

You want me to lie for you.

Only to save Aunt Reggie's feelings.

So let me get this right -
you lied at home to get away

and now you're lying to me
about why you lied to them,

and I'm supposed to go along with it?

This has nothing to do with
Aunty Reggie now, does it?

Well?

Don't flush so much
if you want to be believed.

Alright.

What?
I will. Keep your secret.

You're somehow more attractive
being so devious.

So you won't say anything?

I will weave
the most marvellous tales

of us having fabulous times together.

And one day I will call in the debt.

You owe me.

What do you mean?

You know.

Now, food.

And I will tell you every grisly
detail of the old fool's shame.

There'll be trouble tomorrow
Jack or no Jack.

Pub talk?

If Bert Ford and his scaly crew
get their way,

the Japs won't even
make it up the drive.

But it's not your fight.
Isn't it?

It reminds me of
the parties back home.

More flies.

Everything is with
more flies out here.

It's my turn to be proud today.
Why's that?

Mrs. James Bligh.

You think you can be proud of me
after... everything?

That's the past.

Thank you.

I'd better get ready.

Is that Mrs. Bligh?

Yep.

Beauty is so wasted
on the lower classes.

Who is he?

I don't know.

He makes me wish
I was 20 years younger

and a few rungs down
the social ladder.

Oh, even the newly
widowed can have a sense of humour.

Have you seen George?
No.

Then I'll keep looking.

There you are.

Dutch courage?

Something to stiffen the resolve.

Can't be easy.

It's harder for some.

Well, you look very handsome
and very distinguished.

I'm sure the Japanese
won't be able to wait

to throw millions of yen
at our wool trade.

You don't think I'm wrong?
Why would I?

Elaine was your sister.

We have to put the past behind us.

We do.

Not just from the Japanese.

I spoke with Sister Adams.

She seems to think
you're anti-Semitic.

That's ridiculous.

You must have said something
to give her that idea.

Not that I'm aware of.

Honestly, I know
the Jews have suffered,

but it does make them
overly sensitive.

Oh, dear. That seems to
support her case, doesn't it?

I have overcome things, George.
Trust me.

I'll apologise to the good sister
next time I see her

for whatever slight
she imagines I've offered her.

And I stress - imagines.

Thank you.

You'll have your chance today.
She's coming with Jack.

Is she?
Mmm.

Wonderful.

It'll be an afternoon
for forgiveness all around.

Let's hope so.

You're early.

Yeah, the sooner we're in,
the sooner we can get out.

These will be the first Jap faces
I'll have seen since the camp.

What's your favourite song?

Why?

What is it?
Uh, I'm not really big on music.

You must have one.

'Danny Boy'?

Yeah, Mum used to sing it to me as
a kid, except she'd sing 'Jacky boy'.

OK, in that moment,
when you see them, when it's...

hum it.

The calming power of music -
I've seen it work wonders.

Hey up!

Come on, boys!

You let me through
or do I have to go in swinging?

Hey, mate, he's brought his backup.

You're gonna spit on
your mates' graves, are ya?

I wouldn't take that from
a real man, let alone you.

Look at ya, huh?!

All lining up to help him
do his dirty work.

'Cause this isn't about the Japs,
it's about him and his grudges.

Don't listen to him, boys.
Shut up! I wasn't talking to you!

Now, if there's anyone here
with more reason to hate today...

step forward.

Step forward.

Tell me not to go in there,
I'll turn around now. Huh?

I don't see one man here who served.

So who has the right
to tell me I can't go in there?

That's right.

Now stand aside.

Stand aside.
Don't move.

- Stand aside.
- Oi! Hey, hey, hey.

If I hear of anyone stopping
the Japs getting in,

I'll be down

and I'll show you how much
of my army training I can remember.

Go home.

If I can forget, you can!
You're not serious?

Shut your filthy
wife-beating mouth, Ford!

Come on, mate.
Yeah, mate.

Yeah, mate.
Let's go. Come on. Hey!

Yeah, you'll keep.
Any time.

Let's go.

Don't worry about him.
Nah.

You alright?

Miss Adams.
Thank you, Gino.

Uh, just lemonade, thanks, mate.

You're a hero, you know.

Everyone's saying so.

I just turned up.
Exactly.

Late. Must be on Tokyo time.

Shall we mingle?
Nah, not yet.

Food?
Couldn't keep it down.

Please, be my guest.

Hum.

Jack!

Hey!

Please. Oh, no, no!

Please!

Jack.

# Oh, Jacky boy... #

We look forward to long business
with your father and with you.

As do I, Hiroshi-san.

Domo arigato gozaimasu.

He's full of surprises.
He is, isn't he?

Mr. Hiroshi, there are some guests
I'd like you to meet.

Where did you pick that up?

One of the benefits of having
a well-travelled aunt.

I don't want you
to get cross, but...

there's something about her
I don't like.

Whenever she talks to me, I feel as
if I'm the mouse and she's the cat.

What, you think
she's playing with you?

It's more as if
she's playing being herself.

Years as a diplomat's wife, being
a chameleon in her surroundings,

that's all it is.

James.

I'll be right back.

Gentlemen, my son, James.

Who's that woman
talking to the doctor?

Why do you ask?

George keeps circling back to her
from time to time.

A romance?
Hardly.

A local nurse.
Ah.

A Jew.

Dear me.
Mmm, she converted.

Oh, to be born one is unfortunate.

But to become one?
My dear, positively perverse.

Miss Adams.

He's done well. You've done well.

I think he's reached his limit.

Will you thank him again for me?
Why don't you?

What?
I wish you were on my arm.

I wish I was in your arms.
Later at the cottage?

I should be done here by 5:00.
I'll meet you there at 6:00.

Why don't you tell Jack
I need to powder my nose

and I'll meet him out the front.

Can I borrow him for a moment?
Yes. Yes, certainly.

Sarah said she'll meet you outside.

Thank you for today.

Done my duty?
Above and beyond.

I'd better go before
I run out of goodwill.

Jack.

You're OK?

Sister.

Ah, the Gentile.
Quick.

You ran crying to George, I hear.
I mentioned our meeting.

A wise friend once said,

"They should call it the Whining
Wall, the amount they whine."

That answers one question.

You've done a good job at keeping
that side of yourself from George.

I always choose my audience.

Feel free to scurry to him again.

I'll make sure you end up
seeming paranoid.

I can fight my own battles.
As can I.

That smile takes me
right back to Germany.

And yours me to Jerusalem.

Israel's still there.
Nazi Germany isn't.

I tell you, you should come to the
city. Even Anna's warmed to it.

Really?
Really.

I don't believe you.

We're going to the theatre
next week - 'Dial M for Murder'.

I know she'll love it.

Harry, you can stay
and help us clear away, yes?

I'm not feeling too bright, sorry.

There's food in the kitchen to take,
for little Colin, huh?

Gino, put this on the table.

Wait, I'll get it for you.

I saw her two or three times.
We had a wonderful lunch yesterday.

So you've beaten down
her resistance?

Girls like Anna take patience,
and my patience is being rewarded.

What's wrong?

I was sick again.

Oh, for goodness sake!

You're getting your results
in a few hours. It was just nerves.

I hope so.

Thank you.

Stay for a while.
I'm fine.

Done now.

I'll see you tomorrow, huh?

Miss Bligh, the doctor
will see you now.

I can come in with you.

As long as you're here
when I come out.

- Jack?
- # Oh, Jacky boy

# The pipes, the pipes are calling

# From... #
Jack?

# And down the... #

Are you alright?
Go away.

Come on, come here.

Sit up.
No. Shhh. I don't need your help.

I don't need your help.
I don't need your help. Alright?

What time is it, I've gotta...
What have you done to yourself?

I've gotta get...
What do you... What?

Come on, let's go to Roy's
and you can sleep this off.

No.

Well, you can't stay here.
No!

What kind of man am I?

I shook their bloody hands.
Shhh. Come on now.

What they did to Bill...

he hung himself.

And I shook their blood...
It's over.

I shook their hands.
It's over.

No! No, it's not over! You don't know
what they did in that place.

OK? You don't know. You don't know.

I was in a German camp.
Huh?

Ravensbrck. For two years.

I understand.

And that's why I admire what you did

because I don't know
if I could have.

Hey.

I always knew there was
something with you.

You're a good woman.
Shhh.

Sarah, I know, I know, I know
I love you.

I love you, Sarah.

I always have.

You must know that.

Shhh. Shhh. Shhh.

Oh, my darling.

What am I going to do?

Sarah?

Sorry I'm late. They wouldn't leave.

Sarah?

And that's the last drink
you'll ever take.

Yeah.

I should be better than this.
You are.

What did I say?

You don't remember?

I remember drinking.

And then I woke up and then...

What?
Nothing.

You just sang.
