Yeah, there are skills that you pick up
in this job which can help you in other

areas of life.

For instance, learning how to read
people, anticipating how people

might react to bad news.

But I've got to say, people still will
surprise you, even when you think you

know everything about them.

No, no.

Mate, that's what I'm talking about.
She's better than that.

She's much better. Look, something is
seriously wrong with her. I'm not

mate. I'm going to go see her. Can I
meet you here tomorrow?

OK, yeah. What time?

7am, yeah.

Great.

Hey, hey, Matt.

Here he is.

Hey, mate, my baby. It's a silver
swizzler.

I call her Swizz. So, yeah, mate, you
saw her last night. She finished way

in that field. That said, she was an
absolute cert to win that race. Two

ago, she'd have blitzed that field,
mate, left them for dead.

You think someone got to her?

Yeah, well, mate, I know someone did.

I've got a couple of suspects, right?

And he's one of them.

Gino Carmeli, he actually offered to buy
my girl. It was a month ago now.

He knows his dog and he knows she's
special.

Hey.

So I pretty much told him his dream and
now I reckon he might be trying to

intimidate me into selling her.

I don't know, really.

Well, yeah, look, Hamish, I'm happy to
look into it for you. Yeah.

But it is going to take some time, OK?
Now, time, that equals money. Look,

I don't care what it costs, all right?
If you can find me what I need, that's

all I'm all good for.

Hey, Racky. Oh, cheers, pal. Can you
hang on? Hey, this is Matt Sloan. Hey,

Matt. He's going to find out who
poisoned our girl.

Well, I'll give him a best shot.

Yeah, good luck.

Anyway, we've got to get a wriggle on.
We've got to get to work, eh?

Have you worked for the council, do you?

Uh, yeah.

We're on the roads at the moment, yeah.

But this little girl...

She's our ticket to a better life.

I just need you to find out who got to
her, eh?

How'd you

go?

Easiest repo ever.

I couldn't wait to get rid of her.

Really?

Sick to death of teenagers trashing her.

That's the formal season for you.

Yeah.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine. And you?

Yeah.

No, I'm not. Can we talk about what
happened, please?

I'm there.

Whoa.

Hey.

Whoa.

But you got to keep your head up. Oh,
and you can let your head down. Hey, you

got to keep your head up. Oh, and you
can let your head down.

Oh.

I think I dropped my mobile in your car.
Can I have your keys for a sec? Yeah,

they're on my desk.

Notices are all up to date.

And I will drop these to the post office
on my way. You going?

Got a lecture in an hour.

I'll catch you later. Ciao, Dad.

Bye, darling. Have fun.

Hey. Hey. How are the dogs?

Oh, they're a different breed.

How'd you go?

Good. Easy repo.

Good.

So, everything's... It's good.

Well, that's good then, I guess, is it?

Yeah, and you know... You're not alone
in the office, are you?

Yeah, that's right.

Right. Okay, well, I've got to see if
you've met about a dog, so I'll be back

when I'm back, all right?

See you then.

That was Matt. He's on a greyhound case.

Suspected doping.

Right, they're highly strung creatures,
Grant.

It's not in the car. I must have left it
in the holding yard.

Not as easy as people think.

Not any bunny can turn the bunny around.

You get a lot of responsibility.

Correct.

Hey, I had a hot tip that ran nowhere
the other night. Silver swizzler.

Not so funny.

You got your tip from the owner, right?

Yeah, I did, as a matter of fact. You
know Hamish? Yeah.

Nice guy.

That dog of his?

Outclassed. Really? Ask anyone.

Well, he told me he reckons it's a
potential champion.

Reckons it might have been got at.

No way.

Look at the odds.

Never anything like a favourite.

Catch you later.

Yeah, see you.

Thanks.

Excuse me.

Do you work around here?

Sometimes. Do you know anything about
that factory closure?

No, I'm sorry.

Owner skipped, taking his workers'
entitlement.

Oh, sorry. Steve Evans.

Rick. Rick.

Look, Rick.

It's a nice car. They belong to you?

Shoalhaven Finance.

And you're just minding it for them?
Something like that, yeah.

Look, nice to meet you, mate. Hey,
listen, any chance you can keep an eye

for us? And if the shyster turns up,
then give us a call?

I've got better things to do with my
day.

Mate, the guy's a crook.

I'll take your word for it. I don't know
him from a bar of soap.

Well, there'll be some easy money in it
for you.

There's no such thing as easy money.

You have a good one.

Yep, you too.

Hey.

Hey.

I was just on my way home.

Shame I can't give you a lift.

It's a big shame.

I'd love a lift.

Do you know I've got my own pad now?

Your lily pad?

Mm -hmm.

Converted garage, separate entrance.

It's way more comfortable.

And there's no gear stick.

Yeah, I'm not sure that's a great idea,
given the level of interest from your

family lately.

Perhaps we could have a conference this
weekend, down the coast?

Yeah, I can't. Not this weekend.

How about next weekend? We've got that
lecture in Canberra.

But everyone else from the course will
be there.

I've always found that to be part of the
fun.

Slipping away from the crowd.

I need to take that. I'll...

See you soon.

Okay.

Bye.

Hello.

Find your phone?

Yeah, where is everyone?

Lily's at uni, Matt's on a job, and
Dad's helping Mum get the boat ready for

hire. Well, they must really love that,
eh?

Seeing other people living their dream.

Water under the bridge, I guess.

I really...

I want to talk to you about what
happened yesterday.

Kate, you don't want to talk about it.

You just want me to say that I'm okay
with it.

You two are free to do what you want,
but not here.

Not in the office.

Sorry.

Now can we drop it? I promise nothing
like that will ever happen again. Not

here.

Wait, so who's coming for dinner again?

He's an old university friend.

I haven't seen him for nearly 30 years.

Why not?

Well, he's been living overseas.

Four pros on the other side, love.

And, um, friend and then boyfriend.

Have you finished your homework?

That means yes.

What's his name?

His name is Ross Beachworth.

Jim, what are you doing?

I lost the afternoon. I'm a bit behind.
I'm trying to catch up.

Could you and Kate please not talk
mercantile all through dinner? It will

him witless. I'm sure we'll be riveted
by his tales of daring do as an

accountant.

He works for the International Monetary
Fund. He travels the world.

How did you meet up with him this time,
Nan? He's out there on the jacket,

darling, and he tracked your Nan down.

Maybe he should have been a merc.

Hey.

Hi, darling. Sorry I'm late. You're not.

Don't tell me Lily's actually having
dinner with us tonight.

No, she's got something on at uni.

Nan's having an old boyfriend over for
dinner.

Really?

Ross Beechworth.

Claire Watson.

Well, Claire Christie now.

Come in.

A small contribution.

Oh, thank you. That's lovely.

This is my husband, Jim. Ross.

Ross, welcome to our humble abode. Oh,
thanks for having me. It was great to

your call.

Oh, I read that Ross was in town, so I
called and left a message at the

conference centre. Ross, this is my
daughter Kate and her daughter Emma.

Emma. Hi. Hello.

Um, Jim, can you do the honours? I'll
get some champagne glasses.

It's so good to see you. Come in.

So, Ross, Anthony.

Accountant, do you have any tips for a
struggling small business owner?

If you're struggling, my first tip is
usually sack your accountant.

We can't afford an accountant. I'd have
to sack myself.

So is Nan like in uni?

Oh, your Nan was the coolest girl on
campus.

I don't think so.

And when she got up on that stage... You
were on stage?

Acting? Even better.

Your Nan was lead singer in a band.

Awesome. My!

Have you ever told us that? No, not
really.

We did three gigs before we split up.

Dad, did you know about this?

Oh, yeah, of course, yeah. There's no
secrets between your mother and I. The

cocoa van should be almost done. I hope
you brought your appetite with you.

Right.

Do you remember that party? Do I? I
haven't been able to look at Peppermint

Schnapps since.

Oh, I knew it. Did you really know she
was in a band?

Oh, I had no idea.

Ah, there's your cab, Ross.

Why do they always turn up so quickly
when you don't want them to? And never

when you do. Exactly.

Nice to meet you.

Yeah, you too, Jim. All the best. See
you.

Bye -bye.

Well, I'll see you tomorrow then. Indeed
you will.

Ah, what on tomorrow?

Claire's agreed to give me the guy to
tour.

See how everything's changed.

Come on, I'll see you out.

Bye.

Nice guy.

Yeah.

Hey, guys.

Rick's on TV.

These girls were looking forward to
their big night out at their high school

graduation. But that was before they
encountered this refo man.

Is this the most hard -hearted man on
the South Coast?

There's not such thing as 80 money.

Find out tomorrow on Wake Up Gone.

You've got to be kidding.

We all dreamed of going to the ball like
princesses. And now because of him,

that dream is a nightmare.

Him being this man.

A heartless misery merchant. A repo man
who would only give his name as Rick,

but who we positively identified as Rick
Taylor from Sapphire Mercantile.

Samantha and her friends... had booked
and paid a deposit for a stretch

limousine for their night of nights.

I feel dreadful about what's happened.

He was happy to hand over the keys. Can
you turn it off?

No, as your lawyer, I need to watch the
whole thing.

So why didn't you just refund the girls'
deposits?

I can't.

The finance company's got it.

Shoalhaven Finance?

I've got everything.

It's okay, Bill. It's not your fault.

Well, finally they've sent around their,
um, their gorilla, Rick Taylor, the

repo guy.

So how do you feel about crushing the
dreams of a battler like Bill? I don't

know him from a bar of soap.

So who do you do this dirty work for,
Rick?

Shoalhaven Finance.

Shoalhaven Finance.

Eighty money.

And the girls who booked and paid... He
did not ask me that, all right? They put

different questions in there. Golden
rule, never, ever, ever talk to the

I didn't even know the camera was on.
I've been set up, Jim.

Look, no -one watches this rubbish
anyway. It'll flow over by lunchtime.

Happy dinner, huh?

Okay, let's answer them.

Hello?

Sapphire Mercantile, Kate Christie
speaking.

Yeah, listen, I'll call you straight
back.

It's Claire.

Hello, darling.

My greyhound guy.

No, no, you don't understand.

Can you please listen to me?

Hello?

Hello?

That was Shorehaven Finance.

They just pulled all their business.

Our biggest client.

No way.

Where are you going?

To change their mind.

Rick!

Harriet, that story was a complete
hatchet job. I did not say those things.

pretty sure I know what I heard, Rick.

Okay, look, I said them, but they were
taken entirely out of context.

Do you know how many phone calls I've
had to field this morning? We've had

too, and we're sure it'll all blow over
if we just ignore it. Sorry, Kate.

No can do.

Banks and financial institutions are
very sensitive to the public mood.

Look, we have been out there for years
doing the hard yards for you guys,

We're the ones at the coalface copying
the abuse, the threats, the tears.

I understand that. We've had a very long
and successful relationship with

Shoalhaven Finance.

Surely that's got to account for
something.

I'm sorry, Kate.

It's not my call. Head office have
decreed that... Harriet, I wish things

be different.

Please, have all our files returned by
the end of business today.

Right, so see?

Here's proof, mate. Proof someone's out
to get my dog.

Came out here this morning and I found
this.

Would the guys you suspect know where
you live?

Yeah, of course.

Listen, a while back, someone else's dog
just happened to get their feet all cut

up and broken glass.

That happens, mate. Your dog's never
going to race again, never.

Look, I've got to say, it looks like a
jar of nails fell off the shelf and

shattered. Well, I mean, that's what
it's supposed to look like, mate, but

that going to happen?

Possums?

Honey, you know what they're like? Look,
we put locks on our bins.

It wasn't possums.

Can you put some surveillance cameras or
something in here?

Uh, we can, but, um...

It is an additional expense.

I don't care, mate. Just do it. Hey,
Mitch.

Listen, if it wasn't possums, it's
really unlikely that they're going to

back.

What was that?

Well, they've got their message across,
haven't they?

Nothing else was tampered with or
touched?

No, so it must have been possums.

Corinne, possums go looking for rubbish,
not for hardware.

Listen, listen, it's early days, all
right?

Let me continue with my inquiries, and
I'll catch up with you later and let you

know how I'm going.

Okay?

Hi, Professor.

Lovely day for some private tuition.

This ain't taken.

Um, Lily?

Hello.

Oh. I'm Simone.

I'm... So sorry, I'm in your chair.

Sweetheart, this is one of my
undergraduate students, Lily Christie.

Lily, this is my wife.

Nice to meet you, Lily.

For some reason, they took longer to
make the herbal tea than they did the

coffee.

I'm on the caffeine -free stuff.

It's just one of the sacrifices us
pregnant women have to make.

We're 12 weeks, so we've just started
telling people our wonderful news.

Congratulations, that is... I'm so
sorry, I... Would you please excuse me?

Congrats.

Lily?

Lily, please don't leave. I'm in no
condition to chase you.

I know who you are.

I don't know what you're talking about.
Really.

I'm just... I'm one of Professor
Woodward's students.

You're not the first person to fall for
Marcus's charm.

I wasn't either.

I was you.

And eventually he did leave his first
wife for me, just like you so

want him to leave me for you.

I'm so sorry.

Lily, I understand.

You must...

Hate me so much.

You're young, and you're pretty, and you
must be smart, otherwise Marcus

wouldn't be interested in you.

But he's not going to leave his child
for you.

And if he did, you wouldn't respect him,
would you?

The papers have picked it up.

Apparently, at this time of year, all
the stretch limos are booked solid.

And they're formals tonight, is it?
Yeah. Honestly, what's the big deal? Why

can't they just catch a cab?

Or did you get a cab to yours?

No, I didn't go to mine.

You didn't?

No, I was eight and a half months
pregnant. I could barely walk, let alone

dance.

It must have been rough.

I got over it. So will they.

Life doesn't always have a fairytale
ending.

Two days in a row.

People are going to start to talk.

Sorry, I was just trying to be... You
probably just want to be left alone.

Sorry.

Wife's having a baby.

What?

Hey.

Hey.

You want me to go for the throat?

Yep, absolutely.

So apart from a mouthful of jugular,
what exactly do you want?

I'm assuming you want an on -air
retraction.

No, I couldn't care less about that. I
just want to save the business, and that

means making them pay in cold, hard
cash.

So we go for pecuniary damages.

Yeah.

You're aware if we go in hard and we
lose, it could bankrupt you.

That'll mean losing your mercantile
licence.

Maybe the universe is trying to tell me
something.

I'm instructing you to go for it.

All right, I'll get the ball rolling and
we'll debrief over dinner.

My choice, my shout.

You saying you've got a previous
engagement?

I'll see you at seven.

Thanks. Frankie. My absolute pleasure.

So I spoke to the network's legal
people.

And? All very predictable.

They were outraged, threatened a
countersuit.

I laughed in their face and gave them 48
hours to make an offer, or we take them

to court.

To court?

Did you know that Kate and Matt are
coming here?

Rick and Frankie are here.

Oh, no.

Oh, no, they've seen us. Let's go
somewhere else. No, no, no, it's too

Let's go.

Hello?

What a surprise.

You must join us.

No, no.

Please, join us. Pull up a chair.

There is no moral justification for
monogamy.

I mean, look at nature.

Meet the males battle at Arctic season
and the females pick a winner. It's just

the way it is. So a few thousand years
of civilisation means nothing to you?

Not compared with millions of years of
evolution.

Come on, guys, get on board with this. I
mean, this explains why most men are

alley cat.

What about albatrossing?

Albatrossing is mate for life.

OK, so there are a few exceptions, but,
you know, who wants to be an albatross?

I'd much rather be a tiger.

I've just got to go to the loo.

Oh, I'll go too.

The boys seem a little uncomfortable out
there.

Frankie, so am I.

What? Why?

I'm just not ready to go on a double
date with you and my ex -boyfriend.

I'm sorry.

I'll go.

I'll leave. No, don't. Then what?

You were here for Matt and I should
leave. I mean, Rick's a hottie. I'm sure

he's great in the sack. But at the end
of the day, I'm not desperate.

Okay. So let's just go out there.

Have a couple more drinks and try and
have a few laughs, okay?

Yeah, okay.

You know, if you're attracted to it, you
should just go for it. You sure?

Yeah.

I really need that drink.

Sorry to drop by unannounced. I stupidly
misplaced your phone number. Took a

punt. You guys might be home.

Oh, well, Jim's still at work. Oh.

Tate's at dinner. Emma's with a friend.
And Lily's, well, who knows where.

Then I probably should go. Sorry, it was
just a spur -of -the -moment idea.

Actually, I would kill for some
intelligent company.

That's not peppermint schnapps, is it?

I did consider it for old time's sake,
but settled for 20 -year -old cognac

instead. Oh, good.

It's not nearly as lethal.

Come on in.

It's not really my thing.

This man can really move.

Sure can. I've got to take this.

We need more wine.

Not for me.

Kate, come on. You need to relax.

Live a little. It's a school day
tomorrow.

So I'll write you a late note.

Rick, you'll have a splash.

I know you will.

We'll have another bottle, thanks. Same
again.

That was Hamish, my greyhound guy. The
dog's sick again.

I'm going.

Well, yeah, he wants me to, but there's
probably not much I can do.

What do you think?

Yeah, you should go.

You'll be okay to get home? Yeah, I'll
be fine.

Good luck.

Thanks.

Well, we're not going to let that put a
dent on our evening.

And there's Berlin.

You've got to see Berlin.

I don't know a thing about Berlin.

Oh, it's wonderful.

Berlin has more parks than Paris, more
rivers than canals than Venice,

and Stockholm put together.

Actually, Jim and I were... Well, we
planned to sail to the Whitsundays.

We even restored a boat.

It was a labour of love.

For me, anyway.

Well, that sounds pretty wonderful, too.

A homegrown adventure.

It's never going to happen.

One door closes, another opens.

Jim's back at work and loving it.

I'm back getting physio clients and...
Not loving it. No, not...

Oh,

that's life.

You know, and at the end of the day, who
knows where the future holds?

Come with me.

What?

Come with me. Let me show you the world.

And I promise you, I will never, ever
take you for granted.

Here.

G'day.

I got here as soon as I could. What's
happened?

She's really quick, mate.

I've had to scratch her from the race.
She's been vomiting. She's got the runs.

Is there a fit?

Yeah, well, they took samples, but we've
been with her the whole time.

Nobody's even had a chance to even get
close to her.

So... Hon, I reckon it's time we take
her home.

Yeah, look, you're right.

Hey, Matt, I don't know. I'm sorry,
mate.

It's fine.

It's fine.

Yeah?

I couldn't sleep.

There was no such thing as just a few
drinks with Griffo.

Anyway,

he reckons his brother -in -law will be
able to get some work out of the credit

union, so that's good.

How was your night?

Quiet. Have you eaten?

Yeah. Yeah, I've left the car at the
club.

and left him with Kate in the morning.

So, do you want to go to bed?

I might be long.

There you go.

Morning. Morning.

Have you seen your dad anywhere?

Left about ten minutes ago with Kate.

I'm not sure how hot that is.

I don't mind.

It's over with me and Marcus.

Your call are his.

His pregnant wife's.

Why is life so complicated, Mum?

It just is sometimes, kiddo.

Frankie, it's Rick. Listen, I need you
to hold off from proceeding with the

against the network.

Well, I'd rather not say just yet. I've
got an idea and I have to see if it

works.

Thanks. I'll call you back soon.

I have a proposition for you.

I'm listening.

Rick, hi.

I've got Shorehaven Finance back as a
client.

How? That's fantastic.

You didn't intimidate the journalist,
did you?

No, I came up with a good idea.

Go on.

Okay, Sapphire drives the girls to the
formal tonight in the limo. What?

Courtesy of the wonderful, generous,
community -minded finance company.

No. Yes. That's not what we do.

Well, it is if we want our biggest
client back.

What about... What?

Insurance. Well, they've agreed to
indemnify us. Harry, it's already

media coverage, Kate.

Come on, this is a lifeline. We've got
to take it.

I guess that's pretty great news, then.

Yeah, it is, but we've got to move
quickly, all right?

I'll see you soon.

OK, see you soon. Thank you.

We've just got your Haven Finance back.

Jim, it's Rick.

We've got a bit of a problem.

You remember that journo, Steve Evans?

Yeah, well, he's onto me.

I think it's time for the old
switcheroo.

Hey, mate.

Hey.

What's up?

We're going to have to stop mating like
this.

It's the blue Commodore station wagon
about 50 metres down the road.

Yeah, my car was in the car park.

Jesus. Hello?

I thought you were coming home.

Something's come up, darling. Yeah, I'm
about 15 clicks south.

I've got a news crew following me. They
think I'm Rick.

Well, you've always got an excuse,
haven't you?

It's a pretty good one, though, don't
you think?

Claire? He's there.

How am I supposed to hear?

Yeah, I just saw him leave.

But it's you I need to talk to.

Don't see how I can help.

How's the dog?

She's okay.

Yeah?

You must be relieved.

Well, I'm guessing you weren't trying to
kill her.

It had to be you, Corrie.

You're the only one who had access.

Are you going to tell Hamish?

I have an obligation to tell him, yeah.

But I'll give you the chance to do it
first.

What are they going to find when the
test results come back?

Antidepressants?

The ones I take to...

Get through a day.

I wanted a family.

Instead, I share a bed with that dog.

I just wanted him to realize that this
dream is just selfish and stupid.

It's okay.

I'll tell him.

The good news is they went for it and
Jim's leading them further south. The

news is he forgot to give me his keys.

I'm not going to make it back in time.

What? You set up the whole deal.

Yeah, I know. Believe me, I want to be
there. I can't be in two places at once.

Someone on that end is going to have to
drive the limo.

Hey, what's happening?

One, two, one, two, three, four.

I look like a dog, don't I?

Not once we fix this.

Perfect. You actually look all right in
that suit.

Oh, you didn't go that far.

Fast.

Pretty cool.

Fun.

Give me something sweeter.

Oh, oh, oh.

Okay, let's go. Something to show that
you love me. I want something

sweeter. You need something to show,

show that you love me.

I thought I might find you here.

What's happened?

What's wrong?

Nothing.

The girls are happily at their ball, and
I don't have to pick them up for a few

hours.

Then what?

Your carriage awaits.

No. Yes. No.

It's me. Sorry I'm late. I led those
idiots on a wild goose chase for the

afternoon. You should have seen their
faces when they realised I wasn't Rick.

Well, maybe you had to be there.

Yeah, maybe.

I had a drink with Ross last night.

Oh, yeah?

He popped in on the spur of the moment.

Nice.

He offered to show me the world,
literally.

Oh, really?

He asked me to go away with him.

Oh, did he?

What did you say?

I'm still here, aren't I?

Not that I wasn't tempted.

I've given up my dreams for what?

This was supposed to be short -term, but
look at you. You're as happy as a...

Pig in mud.

And I'm just marking time.

Sweetheart, marking time?

You got your physio?
