All language subtitles for Big Sky s01e16 Simple Twist Of Fate

You're asking me on a date?

It's not a date. It's a business dinner,
and I need you there as chief pilot.

Sounds like a date to me.

If it's a date, I'll have to buy
flowers.

It's purely business, okay?

So you coming or not?

Sure.

As long as it's not a date.

I'm Kate Vernon. Welcome to the Coops
Aviation Dinner.

You must be Lauren Allen from Big Sky.

Yeah, how do you know?

It's my job.

Right. This is Chris Manning, my chief
pilot.

Pleased to meet you.

How do you do?

So, how's business going, anyway? I
heard things were a bit touch and go for

while. Yeah, we've got a long way to go
yet, but so far, so good.

That's great.

Well, the drinks are over there, so help
yourself and enjoy dinner.

Okay, thanks.

There is no way you'd get me up in one
of those tiny little planes.

I don't even feel safe in a jumbot. You
don't know what you're talking about.

It's a fantastic experience.

I suppose people like me must be a real
challenge to you, trying to convince us

of the joys of flying.

So let me.

I dare you to come for a flight.

You just left me to deal with the most
boring man in the whole world by myself.

Lauren, I'm sorry, but when you start
talking balance sheets, I'm just going

glaze over.

Um, do you want me to catch a taxi?

What? Do I look like the kind of guy who
would take you to dinner and then just

drop her?

Well, maybe I should take you up on your
offer.

Yeah.

There.

Now you've got no excuse for piking out.

See you later.

Yeah, I hope so.

Do you want to come in for coffee?

Do you realise that would make it a
date?

No, it doesn't.

Oh, yes, it does.

Because after a date, the person usually
asks the other person in for coffee,

but it usually means something else.

If you're on a date, that doesn't mean
anything.

OK, I'll have a whiskey.

We were just talking.

You couldn't have been more obvious if
you tried.

How was I obvious?

The way you were looking at her, how
close you were sitting to her. Most of

the incredibly unsubtle way you slipped
to your phone number.

Well... She was interested.

She was just being polite.

No way.

She was sending out signals loud and
clear.

Oh, really? Such as?

Body language.

She was begging for an invitation to go
flying.

Oh, well... Well, how do you know if
someone's interested?

Well, it takes a bit more than one drink
at a bar.

Why?

Attraction's spontaneous.

Men only say that because the minute
they see a woman, they immediately think

sex. Well, if you see a good -looking
bloke walking down the street, do you

look?

I guess.

The defence rests.

No, that's physical attraction.

There's more to a person than the way
they look.

Intelligence is very sexy.

Yes, it is.

And I happen to find her very
intelligent.

I didn't realise you were that
interested.

Well, I think I might be.

Charlie Tango Delta, this is Echo
Whiskey Victor.

Pay up the money on my approach.

I'm still four and a half minutes inside
the record.

Echo Whiskey Victor, this is Charlie
Tango Delta. Not enough?

You'll never make it.

You wish. Echo Whiskey Victor.

I hope I'm not interrupting anything.

No, it's great to see you.

Shay, we should reorganise some jobs.
We're a plane down.

Yeah, sure. Cool.

You took up the challenge to get me in
the air.

Hardly seems fair to let you down after
all your hard work.

Well, it's just that... Well, I'll pay,
of course.

No, not that.

I've got a milk run to the bush. It's
not very picturesque.

Well, it's still flying, isn't it?

Let's go.

Who was that?

The first woman he met last night.

Oh, talk about hugs for each other. Oh,
and he's a sleaze. He goes out with you

and he ends up with her.

No, no, no. We weren't going out. We
were just together.

Oh, yeah, but even so... Haven't you got
something you could do?

Good one, Gretzky. Oh, this will make
Lauren's day.

You owe me a hundred bucks, mate.

You just stopped at the wing spa and
you're worried about a hundred bucks?

Why, she's going to hang you out to dry.
Hey, it was wind shear.

There was nothing I could do about it.

I don't call $40 ,000 worth of damage to
a wing spa nothing.

Not to mention the fact that a plane
that's not in the air isn't making

It's insured, isn't it? Not against
abject stupidity.

Look, it wasn't my fault there was wind
shear as I was landing. It wasn't an

emergency landing.

The two of you are playing silly buggers
and I'm supposed to foot the bill.

I thought you had more brains than that,
Scotty.

It won't happen again.

You make sure it doesn't.

You can go.

Brett, this isn't the first time this
has happened, is it?

Forcing another plane to abort its take
-off, ignoring control tower directives,

not really an impressive record.

Lauren, there's not a pilot around here
who hasn't screwed up a few times. Why

am I getting singled out? Because you've
struck out twice already.

You're obviously not going to change.

I've dragged through it, Brett.

Come on, Lauren. It has been drawn up.

Take it and go.

So how does it feel now?

It's amazing, just like you said.

Well, I told you you wouldn't be
disappointed.

So I guess it's my turn today to do
something.

Like what?

Well, I'm thinking it's no fun if it's
not a challenge.

But I don't know enough about you.

Yeah.

What's wrong?

It's nothing. The trims have been stuck
somewhere.

Is that the hearing?

No, no, no. It's nothing to worry about.
It just means I don't have as much

control. The landing could be a bit
rough.

That's OK.

If she's not going to give me another
chance, then I'm supposed to just come

sleep.

Fuck her.

You'll get another job. Just check out
the tapari bar. Get real, mate. Without

reference, I've got bucklies.

She'd always go back in there and ask
you for your job back.

What are you talking about?

Well, she may have calmed down by now.
Just front her.

You reckon?

What are you going to do?

Lauren, do you think I'd be stupid
enough to do it again?

I can't take that chance.

And don't go behind my back to Chris
this time because he totally agrees with

decision. How about at least giving me a
reference?

Brett, you were fired. What sort of
reference do you think... What am I

to do?

Well, you should have thought of that
before.

Yeah. We've just got to get the trim tab
in the neutral position.

Otherwise, taking off will be a bit
rough.

Come on.

Okay. Now, can you grab that?

Yeah, that's the trim tab. Now, when I
say pull it up, just pull it up.

You mean push it up?

I mean push it up.

All right.

Now.

Excellent.

That'll do it.

Big Sky, this is Charlie Tango, Delta.

I'm on the ground at Gillaroo. There's a
slight problem with the trim tab.

If this keeps up, I won't have any
planes left. What's your ETA?

1 ,300.

Can you make it as fast as you can?

Big Sky.

Charlie Tango?

Sorry, work calling.

Would you care to have dinner with me
tonight?

Are you sure this is going to be all
right?

What?

Well, us going out to dinner.

Well, why wouldn't it be?

Well, what about Lauren? Won't she mind?

None of her business.

Oh. So you're one of these couples who
have an understanding, is that it?

Couples?

Me and Lauren.

So you're not?

No way.

Well, when you turned up to dinner, you
looked like you were.

I know.

Purely professional.

Tui, let me, from all of us at Big Sky,
offer our condolences at the tragic loss

of your husband.

Thank you.

Now, when we begin the ceremony, we'll
slow the plane right down so the engines

don't distract from the occasion.

Also to minimise airspeed during the...

Scattering.

I assure you, fitting tribute.

Sounds fine.

Let's get going.

As you wish.

You're not.

Silence, please, sister.

What the hell is that?

Turn it off.

I don't.

Quiet.

Would you like to say a few words before
the scattering?

to be a touching farewell, not a total
debacle. What sort of airline are you

people running?

I offer you and your family my deepest
sympathies. We've never done ashes

before. It was a pocket of clear air
turbulence. There was no way of

it. You're pilots. You should have those
sort of things factored in.

I'm sorry. There was just nothing we
could have done about it. Consider it a

teething problem. It won't happen again.
We'll get it right next time.

There won't be a next time.

I'm going to litigate the pants off you.

You'll be hearing from me.

Aunty?

Now, just a minute. I don't think we
need to take legal action over what was

essentially an accident.

It was blatant incompetence.

Now, I haven't been into this in detail
yet, but let's just start with breach of

contract. Oh, you're kidding.

Negligence. That idiot was clearly and
unquestionably negligent. It's not

Jimbo's faulty trip.

He showed reckless indifference by
failing to take adequate precaution for

foreseeable mid -flight occurrence.

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

The worms don't get you, the advanced
hypoallergenic suction with triple

action mask.

I think you should show a little bit
more respect for the dead.

That Catholic guilt stays with you
forever.

What if we found the ashes and we did
the ceremony again? Would that change

things? You're not getting it.

This was supposed to be a solemn moment.

Where was the respect?

I mean, it was all they could do to stop
themselves from laughing. Mr Nicholls,

my staff take their responsibilities
very seriously.

Warren, we bagged him.

It's OK, that's... Please,

just give us a chance.

We can do this properly, I promise.

I very much doubt it, too.

Jimbo, Lexi.

Get the meshes and arrange the
scattering.

Pretty good running repair.

Couldn't have done it without my
copilot.

I'll check the control cables and make
sure the problem's not there.

Lucky they didn't go. It would have been
nasty.

How long?

Give us an hour.

Well, thanks for the flight.

I'd better go.

What about dinner?

I want to say, meet you here around
seven.

Okay, I'll book a table.

Nice lady.

I saw her first.

Phil! Where are the ashes?

Over there on the bench.

Lena must have chucked them.

Normal concept, an airline without any
plans.

Called someone who wants to sue us for
everything we've got.

What for?

Oh, over the ashes.

What is this thing about ashes? We're in
a fire or something.

I wish.

Chris, there really is something wrong
with that trim tab, isn't there?

You think I made it up?

Well, you know, Kate's a very attractive
girl and I... Ah, I see.

You're suggesting that I made it up so I
could spend more time with Kate.

Yeah, well, the thought had crossed my
mind. Well, I'll tell you something

funnier. She thought we were on
together.

Where did she get that idea?

It must have been at the dinner. She
said we looked like an old married

Well, some toy boy you turned out to be.

Well, I'll try harder next time.

Lauren?

He's doing it. He's doing food. Oh,
what?

I promised him we'd make good. This is
unfair.

If we don't find those ashes, we're in
so much trouble.

Hey, check it out.

Oh, that'll be useful.

Could be.

How'd you go?

Oh, yeah, we'd love to give you a job,
mate.

But you've got a reputation.

So just keep going.

You know how small this business is. I'm
poison.

But he tried those guys. You've got to
keep going. It's easy for you to say.

You've got a job.

What if you'd have won the bet? You
could have damaged the plane just to

So it's my fault now. It takes two to
make a bet.

But I wouldn't wreck a plane trying to
win it.

It's such a suck.

And you're such a whinger. Get over it.

Come on, mate. You've got to get me a
reference.

If I don't have one, I'll never work in
this industry again.

I'm not exactly Lauren's favourite
person at the moment either. Come on,

I'd do it for you.

She has screwed up my life.

This rich bitch.

Someone ought to make her pay.

I'll take you home. Hey, if that's all
you're going to do for me, you can piss

off.

Oh, Kate, hi.

Hi. Chris left this for you. He's had to
go and pick up his kids.

Oh. Stranded or something.

I wonder if he'll be home by now.

Chris told me you inherited Big Sky from
your father.

Yeah, no great prize, though, let me
tell you.

I bet you're pretty successful now.

Yeah, things are getting better.

I admire anyone who runs their own
business.

I suppose with the hours you work,
meeting guys must be pretty difficult.

Yeah. My husband died late last year.

I never thought I'd get involved with
anyone again.

Sorry to hear that.

It was awful.

I heard the car running in the garage.

By the time I got there, he was dead.

Such a waste of life.

He got so depressed because his business
went under.

It's terrible.

I ended up losing everything.

My house.

My husband.

Kate, you don't have to tell me all
this.

I'm sorry.

Burdening you with all my problems. No,
it's okay.

I should go.

If you're interested, I've got a lot of
contacts. Maybe I could throw some

business your way.

Oh, great. I never say no to new
business.

Great.

Well, I'll make up a list of likely
people and get one sent over to you.

Okay, thanks. I'd appreciate that.

Kate, hi. I'm sorry.

I got your message.

I had a nice little chat to Lauren
anyway.

Oh, yeah? What about?

Wouldn't you like to know?

I thought we were going out to dinner.

So did I.

What's... What's the matter?

I guess I should tell you.

My husband died not long ago.

Oh.

I'm sorry to hear that.

I never expected to meet anyone so soon.

Well, do you want to take things a bit
slower?

Hello?

No, no one else has got a key.

Hello? Oh, uh, hi.

Is, um, is Chris there, please?

He can't come to the phone right now.

I know it's late, but could you ask him
to give Lauren a call?

Sure.

Thanks.

Who's that?

I don't know. They hung up.

Oh.

Now where were we?

Hey.

Happy bloke.

So, uh, what are we talking? A quiet
little number or Beethoven's fifth?

What?

Is she like a minuet or is she like full
orchestra with crescendo?

You are so crap.

What's wrong with the musical analogy?

That happened.

Oh, so it's... Could be.

It's pretty quick, isn't it? Quick.

This is from a bloke who falls in love
without knowing a girl's name.

Names are just convenient labels, Chris.
So, you know, what are you feeling?

Apart from the obvious.

Well, we get on together, it's real
good.

Well, the fact that her husband's died,
you know, she could be on the rebound.

Oh, what are you, a psychologist now?
It's worth thinking about. Morning.

Ready?

We have to?

You don't want us to get sued?

Yep.

Was anything taken?

I don't know. I haven't been through
everything yet. It was a huge mess.

Why didn't you call me?

I did. Kate answered, so I left the
message.

She didn't tell you?

Must have slipped her mind.

I think it was Brett.

Did Brett say anything about getting
even with Lauren or getting back at Big

or anything?

Well, I mean, yeah, he was really pissed
off with Lauren, but there would have

been the grog talking.

I don't think so, Scotty.

Well, I can go and ask her.

It won't do any good. He'll only deny
it.

It wouldn't have flipped her mind. She
should have given you the message.

Yeah.

I don't know what happened.

She would have done it on purpose.

Lauren, what have you got to guess
through exactly?

Nothing.

I don't care who you go out with, it's
got nothing to do with me.

Good, I'm glad to hear it.

It's appalling how much waste the human
race creates.

Let's just find the bag and get out of
here.

We are drowning in our own refuse.

But doesn't that worry you?

I wonder where Harold's soul is right
now.

I don't know. I don't know about the
timing of these things.

No, I think you're supposed to, like, do
your time in limbo before you go to the

pearly gate.

Limbo's not compulsory, is it?

Well, I think for poor Harold it is.

Limbo, don't say that. That's awful.

No, until his final wishes are carried
out, how can he be laid at rest?

Sorry.

They're the rule.

I don't believe it.

That was Jeff Hamilton from Southwest
Air checking on a reference I apparently

wrote for Brett.

You're kidding.

Yeah, he wanted to know why we were
letting such a good pilot go.

Well, he's obviously knocked a letter
here off and written himself one. Yeah,

with my signature on it, the guy's out
of control.

It's hopeless.

We're never going to find him.

Condemned to wander for eternity.

Just like we will be.

How are we going to tell Lauren?

How

about

best out of five?

Go on.

Uh, Lauren?

Tell me you found the ashes.

Okay.

We found the ashes.

So I can believe it.

We've looked everywhere.

They're gone.

Oh, Carl Nichols will be here in half an
hour. What am I going to say?

I can't tell him that.

He'll sue us for every cent we've got.

He can't really make a case out of
someone tripping, can he? He'll give it

damn good try.

Jake, call him and see if you can put
him off. I've got to come up with

something.

Just watch me. Don't be trying to
reject, Brad.

I lost the chance of a new job today
because of you.

You should have thought of that before
you faked the reference.

You just couldn't let it be, could you?

What was I supposed to do? You're
blaming everyone but yourself.

If you'd know what it's like... I'd get
out of here now. There you go. Come on.

You'll get one day.

Trashing my flat wasn't enough for you.
You want to be up for assault as well? I

didn't trash your flat. What about
forging my signature?

That's a serious offence.

But this is your last warning.

Don't show your face around here again.
Have you got that?

Hi, love.

I was just about to come and see you.

Take your time.

Well, for a start, you can call Tony
Cormack at regional events because I

he's not happy with the company they're
using at the moment.

Great, thanks. I will.

Chris told me about your flat.

It must have been awful.

Yeah, it was.

Any idea who did it?

Why would someone do something like
that?

Can we get back to business, Kate?

I'm sorry.

I thought you might want to talk about
it.

Look, maybe this isn't the best time to
do this.

I'm just trying to help, Lauren.

Why won't you let me do that?

I'd like us to be friends.

The last few days have just been really
awful, and I don't think I'm really up

to thinking about new customers right
now.

Could we do this some other time?

There you go.

I get a message.

I don't know how to explain it, but
there is something a bit odd about Kate.

Oh, here we go again. What is your
problem with her?

It's the way she's always around. She
keeps asking questions about the

I don't know. There's something else.
There's something more there.

You're paranoid.

No, Chris, you don't see it.

She's different with me. Lauren, you're
imagining things.

I can't put my finger on it.

It's the way she talks. I mean, I don't
want to know about how her husband

killed himself.

Her husband committed suicide?

Yeah, didn't she tell you about it?

Well, she told me he died.

See, there's something about her. Why
would she tell me about that and not

Well, maybe because she thought I'd feel
differently about her. That doesn't

make her a weirdo.

Chris, I can't help the way I feel.

I can assure you, Mr Nicholls, we've
done everything within our power to make

amends for the incident.

Please, find comfort in the knowledge
that Harold is at one with the universe.

You had your chance, and you blew it.

I'll be filing papers with the court
tomorrow.

No, please, Mr Nicholls, there must be
some other way. I found him. I found

We looked everywhere.

I know, and I am very sorry. I put him
away very carefully, like, in a safe

spot, and I must have forgot where I put
him. I'm very sorry.

Well, we could have the ceremony again
right now.

Let's just give him the piece he's been
looking for, Carl.

I'll reserve my decision until the
ceremony has been carried out to my

satisfaction.

Don't worry, Mrs Toohey, there'll be no
more accidents. I've got it all worked

out. You're very kind.

Um... Do you think if everything went to
plan, maybe Carol might call and help

him out?

You just leave him to me, dear.

Carol never could stand him anyway.

What are you doing here?

What's the matter, Lauren?

Have you got something to hide?

What are you talking about?

Life must be so difficult for you.

You've had everything handed to you on a
plate.

I don't think you've got any idea how
hard I've worked to build this business

up. I think I've got a pretty good idea.

Like hell you have.

Maybe you're just jealous of me and
Chris.

You want Chris all to yourself, do you?

Well, what if I told you that Chris is
falling in love with me?

Then that would be Christmas.

But you wouldn't prove, would you?

Because you don't like me.

No, I don't.

But that's irrelevant.

Like father, like daughter.

Ruining lives must run in your family.

You're a chip off the old block, Lauren.

Daddy would be proud of you.

How do you know my father?

Lauren? Yeah.

Just to let you know that you're going
out to do Chris's run in the chieftain

Cross Harbour. What do I employ him for?

Well, he's already done the maximum
hours.

Okay.

I don't know what you're playing at, but
get off this base.

Kate, what are you doing here?

Lauren told me not to see you anymore.

Oh, really?

That doesn't count, Lauren.

Well, that's what she said.

Don't you believe me?

Harold, dear.

Thank you for 50 wonderful years
together.

I hope you find...

What a nice little old lady.

Shame about the nephew.

Yeah, but at least we're off the hook.

Good news, guys.

Found what you were looking for.

Out of the workbench.

Well, I didn't know what else to do. I
thought we were going to be sued for

everything we had.

All well and good, but who or what?

Did we scatter up?

Do you really want to know?

You realise we're going to have to go up
again. I mean, poor Harold, he's not at

peace.

Third time lucky.

Lauren, I want to talk to you about
something.

No, I'm sorry, I haven't got time.

All right, I'll come with you.

What is it about you telling Kate not to
see me?

I said nothing of the sort.

No, I didn't think so.

Are you in love with her?

that Trim's head's not responding.

Bill, fix it by throwing it.

Grant, I can't believe you did it.

Push the column forward.

Please help me.

We have to land. We have to land now.
There isn't an airstrip for a mile.

Beach, attic, anything that's flat, bud.

Right front.

Oh, Kate, hi.

You haven't seen Chris, have you? Yeah,
he's gone on a flight with Lauren.

I thought Lauren was going by herself.

She was.

What's the problem?

You have to get them to land right now.

Charlie, hang her down with this big
guy. Chris, are you there?

Shay, we've got a problem up here.

He has to land.

Okay.

Would you tell us what the hell is going
on?

Shay, we're going to have to put down
real quick.

The trim tab's gone. I'll keep you
posted.

Was that you?

I didn't know he'd be on the plane.

Would you tell me what you did right
now?

There was a cable. I heard them talking
about it.

I'm kind of pleased.

Keep working.

We'll have to try with that hard back
sand in the water. If we get the soft

stuff, we'll start with the soft stuff.

Oh, sorry about that, I...

Thanks,

guys. Charlie Tango, Delta.

We've landed.

I repeat, we've landed safely.

Charlie Tango, this is Big Sky. Well
done, guys.

Chris, are you all right?

What the hell do you think you were
doing?

He drove my husband to it.

I never meant to hurt you.

She'll be stuck here for a while.

Have to apply a fill -out to fix the
cable.

Well, if they can find a chopper
somewhere.

All the time she was using me to get to
you.

You sure can pick them. Well, she didn't
exactly have psychopaths turning across

her forehead.

But I told you there was something weird
about her. But, oh, no, would you

listen? You were typically being Mr.

Testosterone. Well, she was a very
attractive woman.

Yeah, I was actually quite.

Oh, yes, I know. And you told me she
wasn't my type. You should have

I'm going to have a stroll on the beach.

Look around.

You coming?

You're inviting me to go for a stroll on
the beach with you? Yes.

So?

Well, you know, I just want to make sure
that it's not a date or anything.

Well,

she was an attractive woman.

And that's an excuse for everything.

No. My other sister, she... Well, she...
She what?

I also happened to think she was very
intelligent.

Intelligent? Chris, she's a...
