All language subtitles for Big Sky s01e31 Fade To Black

Okay, Jack, this time I'm going to get
you out.

How was that one?

Not out, Dad.

What do you mean? That would have taken
all three stumps.

No way.

Chloe, up to you.

Not out.

Yeah, that'd be right.

I'm okay.

But the bad news is, you're out.

Yes, I can.

Let's go.

What's up? How come you haven't left
yet?

Vacuum pumps take too long to run up.

They can't be. I just replaced them. You
can't fly it in this state. Just fix

it, will you?

These jobs can't wait, Lex. They're
important.

So is this. Look, it's tradition.

All my family have been christened in
this dress and my aunt makes the wine.

If there was anybody else available, I'd
ask them. But company business has to

come before person.

Chris, I have to do this. It's my chance
to make it with my parents after I call

my wedding off with Vince.

Well, I'm sorry.

My family will never speak to me again.

What do you want me to do next? Go
behind Chris's back?

Well, you've done it before.

Yeah, but not when he's Mr Grumpy and
got a headache, for God's sake. That's

asking for trouble.

Do you want to see a grown woman beg?

Please. Please. Okay.

Okay, I'll see what I can do.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Ah, Mr Andrews Plummer and Hammond.

I'm Jimbo James. This is Scotty Gibbs.
We're your parlors to go into up this

morning. Great.

Can we get going? We're in a bit of a
hurry.

Sure.

Look, you guys don't have to do this.
I'm okay on it.

Yeah, why do we have to go? It doesn't
take three of us, does it? It's what we

agreed on. So things can't be changed.
You can learn to be a bit more flexible.

Look, who thought of this in the first
place?

I don't get it.

Those pumps didn't take any time to run
up.

I don't know what Chris's problem is.

Well, it's just these kind of weird
flashes in front of my right eye.

Yeah, I know it must be hard to diagnose
someone over the phone, but I just

thought you might have some idea.

Thanks a lot.

Chris, we've got a problem, and I won't
be back in time to pick up those people

from Wharton with Paula.

Why not?

He's stuck in Sandgate with engine
trouble.

Well, Lauren, I've got this really bad
headache. Let me look at the schedule

see if I can juggle somebody else.

Not like you to let a headache put you
out of action.

What's that story you always tell about
flying once with a broken ankle? Yeah, I

didn't do it by choice.

I'll make Jimbo go when he gets back
from Goondaloo. He won't be back in

Is there something else wrong?

No. Why would there be?

I don't believe you guys. How long have
we known each other?

Stick to what we agreed on. Then nothing
can go wrong.

Blind faith, man. That's what gets you
into trouble.

What about all the other stuff we've got
to do? Who's going to do that?

Just a surgeon.

He's right, you know. Maybe we should be
doing that instead of this.

You want to get out right now? Go ahead.

Executive stress disorder.

I read about it in the Psychologist
Association newsletter.

I recommend it flicks 90 % of people in
positions of authority at some stage.

You should never get the dress.

Oh, that's the tragic thing about it.

I don't see it coming, and then...
Jimbo, why does there always have to be

incredible explanation for everything?

Because he's got all the symptoms.

Well, one.

I should ask him if he's having trouble
sleeping or if he's got irritable bowel.

It won't take any time. The point is we
have to be gone as quickly as possible.

Stop going on about it. I said we do
this first.

How are we going back there, gentlemen?

Ever been to Gunduap before?

Couldn't believe it.

What kind of pick -up line is that? How
about you, Joey, show a cockpit

sometime?

Do they really think I've never heard
that one before?

Paula, what's the reading on the
airspeed indicator?

It's that one over there, you know, the
round one with the numbers on it. Yeah,

very amusing.

A lot of traffic around today, I've got
to keep my eye on it.

It's 120, shouldn't you pull that back a
bit?

No, it's OK.

Well, you should be 95 by now. Paula,
don't tell me how to buy a plane.

Echo Whiskey Victor, cleared to land on
runway 07 and hold short runway 16

right.

Echo Whiskey Victor.

Chris, too fast. Abort the landing.

Shut up, William.

Caution. Echo Whiskey Victor. You are
interesting.

Active runway.

Stopped immediately.

Abort flight.

It's highly unusual for a pilot of your
experience and ability to make such an

error of judgement.

Unusual but not impossible, Brian. We
all make mistakes. The point is pilots

can't afford to. Their mistakes can cost
lives. I'm well aware of that. It won't

happen again.

Well, I'm just a little concerned it
happened at all and I want a reason.

so far you haven't given me a reason. I
told you it was a mistake, an error of

judgement. Just one of those things. So
you're telling me that for no apparent

reason you just failed to notice you
were coming in too fast and then just...

failed to do anything about it, and as a
result, intersected another runway. No.

I did notice.

I tried to correct.

But I didn't have enough runway to stop
before I crossed the acting line.

Why were you coming in too fast at all?

Was there something wrong with the
aircraft?

Mechanical defect?

Instrument failure?

Well, there could have been, but I
couldn't be sure, of course.

Have you had anything to drink in the
last 12 hours? Taken any medication?

What did you take for your headache?

One aspirin isn't going to affect me.
You've not been feeling well.

I had a headache before, and now it's
coming back.

Come on, Brian. You know Chris. He
wouldn't fly if he had a problem.

Is that all?

For the time being.

And I want a written report of exactly
what happened, of course. Perhaps by

you'll remember.

And I want to talk to Paula.

Oh.

Look, why don't you go back right now?

I'm beginning to get the idea there's
some reason you don't want us here.

is there something you know we don't?
What are you saying? We can't hide

anything from you guys. We're
practically family.

I'm just thinking about us, about all
the stuff we've got to do together, you

know? Yeah, well, just leave that to us,
all right?

They're sus.

There's something not quite right about
them.

What? They're muttering to themselves
and clamming up as soon as I speak to

them. They're wearing suits out here.

You can't help yourself, can you?

I mean, they're probably engineers or
archaeologists.

Oh, archaeologists. Excuse me.

They wear, like, you know, lots of khaki
and have boots and whips. You know,

I've seen Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Oh, OK. So this is the movies.

Oh, it must be true. You must be right.

I'm so sick of your theories, Jimbo.

I've got it. Their names.

The Sound of Music.

I was joking about the movies.

Julie Andrews. Christopher Plummer.

Nicholas Hammond.

They're all names from the sound of
music.

Isn't it, Cliff Hammond? He played the
eldest kid and then he went on to play

Spider -Man with me.

They're obviously fake names, cunningly
chosen.

Look, it's a coincidence.

I mean, if people want fake names, they
use Smith or Jones.

Oh, Scotty, please.

Only a criminal of, like, subnormal
intelligence would choose such an

fake name.

They are not.

Oh, OK, so they're crooks.

What the hell are they doing out here?

It's desolate.

Nobody for miles.

It's not

fair.

What? I just had to cover for you. I
don't even know what I'm covering for.

You're not covering for anything.

Chris, you asked me to read instruments
for you. You're the co -pilot, aren't

you?

Look, I'm piggy in the middle here.
Don't you think it is at least better?

me know what's going on. You have been
waiting in line all morning.

Now get back and do the job you paid for
before you're out of a job. Are you

threatening me?

Have you lost it or what?

You think somebody's got a problem and
that somebody happens to be your boss,

there's a right way to go about dealing
with it. Getting all blonde and up and

he won't achieve anything.

Getting all blonde?

What's that supposed to mean?

No matter what happened, Chris Manning
deserves a lot more respect than you

showing him.

Hey, I respected him enough not to tell
the ARC the full story. How much more do

you want me to bow and scrape?

So what really happened?

It's between me and Chris, alright?

I didn't ask to cop this, Roly. I don't
want to dob anyone in. Just tell me,

Paula.

He asked me to read instruments for him.

I'm sure there was a good reason for it.

Leave it with me.

You tell him and I'll kill you.

It doesn't take two of them to knock off
one guy.

That's the way they do it. One guy to do
the dirty work, the other one to dig

the hole.

Let's go.

Plenty of time.

I've got the victim to dig his own hole.

Shouldn't we wait for Mr Hammond? He's
not coming back with us.

Oh, I see.

Come on, let's go.

You're sure he'll be all right out here
on his own? We hired you to fly the

plane, so I suggest that's what you do.

Of course.

Now do you believe me?

When you relax, it'll be all right.

You go out to come back and the one that
isn't with them was nervous the whole

time. They knocked him off.

Try and shoot holes in that.

He's gone camping. He's a geologist.
He's on a bet. He's doing survival

Maybe that's part of the bet.

I thought you'd like to know there was
nothing wrong with the plane.

But then you knew that, didn't you?

I said it could have been a mechanical
failure. I didn't say it was.

Chris, you knew for sure it wasn't.

What makes you so sure?

Because I know you, Chris.

You're not the sort of bloke who looks
for excuses.

And that's what you reckon I'm doing?

Not just me, mate.

Now, maybe we're all wrong, maybe we're
not, so why don't you tell me?

I love flying, Roly.

It's what makes you so good at it.

I don't want to give it up.

Why would you have to?

There's something wrong with my eye.

I think it might be serious.

You don't have to wait.

Of course I'm waiting.

I'll be fine.

I think we'll let an expert decide that.

You should have told me. What's a seven
-letter word meaning season? I know

you're worried, but that's perfectly
normal.

Incessant, perhaps?

Um... No, that's got nine letters.

Lauren, please.

I really appreciate you driving me here,
and I really appreciate your concern.

It's very nice, but look, I don't know
what's going to happen when I go in

there, and if I want to go crazy or kick
the cat or punch the walls, I prefer

not to do it in front of you, okay?

Sure, okay.

You let me know what happens, because I
do care.

Forever. What?

Mr. Manny.

Come on in.

If there's been a crime committed, we've
got a responsibility to tell the cops.

If there's been a crime committed.

If you want to kill someone, are you
going to hire a plane to do it with the

pilots as witnesses?

Yeah, but they know we're witnesses, so
if we go to the cops, they'll know who

it was and we'll get wasted.

They know that. We know that. So they
know we won't tell. Well, that theory

relies on an awful lot of people knowing
stuff about each other, doesn't it?

Okay, okay. Mr. Big was getting heavy.

They had to do the quick to keep him
happy.

Well, that still doesn't explain the
plane.

Okay, look, you're part of a syndicate.

And you go to a long car ride, you know
what's going down. I mean, I've seen

those problems.

Yeah, you see?

It's the movies again. It's not real.

Yeah, but the plane.

You never would have seen it coming.

They killed him and stuffed him down a
mineshaft. Those things were so deep,

would never find the body. That's
because there is no body. There was no

Look, there's a perfectly reasonable,
plausible explanation for all of this.

So what is it?

I told you before, I gave you heaps of
explanations.

Scotty, a survival course, please.

I mean, if you're going to shoot holes
in my theories, come up with something

better than that.

Hey, Jimbo, what are you still doing
here?

You're down to take over Chris's run to
Lake Milton.

I am?

Yeah, you are, so get going.

Like Milton.

That's not far from Gunduap, is it?

Oh, hey!

Look slightly left.

Slightly right.

How's it looking, Doc?

I can't be sure until I've finished the
examination.

So what's the verdict, Doc?

Do I have to wear those little half
-moon glasses or those big thick ones to

make your eyes bold?

I wish it was that simple, Mr Manning.

I'm afraid you have a detached retina in
your right eye.

Now without treatment, either by surgery
or laser, the detached retina can't

survive for very long.

It will eventually result in blindness
in that eye.

But there are several methods of
reattaching the retina, and in the

cases it's successful.

What about the minority?

There's a risk the site will be worse in
that eye and a very small chance of

losing sight in it completely.

It all depends how badly the retina's
damaged.

It looks like a grave, don't you think?

Not really, no.

It's not big enough.

I've heard in some criminal fraternities
that they bury the guys standing up.

I thought you said they were only gone
for a short time.

Yeah, but they were in a real hurry. If
they hadn't done something wrong... Why

would they be in such a hurry?

Do you really believe that they had time
to come out here and dig a hole that

would be, what, allowing for headroom?

Seven and a half.

Eight foot?

Well, no. You know, I figured that they
probably had to, like, rearrange the

body parts, you know, to fit it in.
Well, don't you think you should have a

look? Hang on a minute.

Apart from this clue,

have you got anything else to back your
case up?

Well, yeah.

For a start, there's this bloody shirt.
I mean, if that's...

Don't see any shirts.

It was right here, I swear.

Somebody must have come and got it while
I was radioing in. Maybe the bloke

who's buried there rose from the dead
and took his shirt back.

I've got a feeling that you don't
believe me. The rule of thumb in police

is you need at least three clues before
you start forming any theories.

Have you got a third clue?

No, I've got one.

Okay, well, when you get a third clue
and you've sorted out your problems with

the other two, you can get back to me.
I've got better things to do than come

out here on a wild goose chase. I am
telling you, there is something weird

on here.

Hi, it's Lauren Allen calling. I was
wondering if Chris Manning was still

the doctor.

Thank you.

I thought I'd finished building the
barbie. What, now?

Well, you abandoned that project a year
ago.

Yeah, so it's time I finished it.

You weren't expecting people around or
anything, were you?

You know, I wish you'd called. It'd be
nice to know when you're planning to

in. I mean, I might have been busy.

Well, it was just a spur -of -the
-moment thought, really.

I can see that.

You're not dead.

Real observant, aren't you?

Please, keep digging. Don't stop because
of me.

Oh, no, no, I was actually... Fuck you,
you turned up again.

I flipped and cut my hand, made digging
hard.

And your shovel's bigger than mine, so
get to it.

Um, what am I actually, like, digging
up? None of your business.

It's just that if it's, you know, like,
gory, I'm a bit squeamish. I don't know.

Just dig.

Don't you have a home to go to? Oh, I'm
really enjoying this.

I reckon I could do it for a living.

What?

No, I'm serious. I've been thinking
about doing something else lately.

And give up flying?

Now I've heard everything.

Well, why couldn't I?

Lots of other things I could do.

Why would you want to give up something
you love?

Oh, it just doesn't give me the buzz it
used to.

Chris, what's happened?

Well, I've been doing it for a long time
now.

I don't want to get stuck in a rut.

It'll give me more spare time for the
kids.

Would you answer my question?

Well, maybe I'm having a midlife crisis.

There's nothing to joke about.

Hey.

Who's joking? I could be, couldn't I?
Well, I don't know. You won't tell me

the matter is. Robbie, can't I just
finish this? What time are the kids

back? Chris, no. Look, you can't do this
to me. You can't come over every time

you have a problem and expect me to mop
it up.

It doesn't work like that anymore. We
are separated, OK? You tell me what the

problem is, I'm happy to help. We'll
talk about it, I'll give you advice,

lend you money, whatever.

But I'm sorry, I'm not going to play
your mother. I wouldn't do when we were

married and I'm not going to do it now.
OK, fine. I can take the hint. No,

Chris, just... Talk to me. Just tell me
what the matter is. I didn't come here

to talk to you.

Never mind.

Chris!

They want to go to Gundu up now. What am
I going to do?

What's the problem?

That's where Jimbo is.

No, he's not. He's gone to Lake Milton.

You sure about that? Yeah, I just spoke
to him. He said he'd hit a headwind and

he was running an hour.

What's he doing back there?

Had to get himself into some big trouble
by the looks of it.

Keep digging.

It's a pretty heavy going, you know. Can
I just stop for a breather? It's your

fault. How do you figure that?

I'd almost dug it up when you came
sniffing around with the copper, so I

fill the hole in again.

You're really making work for me, you
know that?

I don't know that.

You want to kiss goodbye to all fortune?

Hey, guys, we might have to land ASAP.

There's a slight problem with the
menopause pressure gauge. I'm going to

check it out. Of course you can check it
out.

In Gundawa.

Well, I don't know if I can make it that
far. You better make sure we do.

What if we're going to crash? Shut up.

I'll have to radio ahead, you know,
alert anyone in the area, just let them

know. Whatever. Just hurry up and get us
there.

Tango Whiskey Theory to Charlie Tango
Delta.

Slight problem up here. We're trying to
reach Gundawa.

Repeat, trying to reach Gundawa.

Tango Whiskey Sierra to Charlie Tango
Delta.

Come in, I have something to do.

Is this what you're looking for?

You don't have to worry about me, like,
going to the cops, you know, because,

like, I know what happens to guys with
grass.

No.

Yeah, but I'm just saying that, like,
you know, like, you know, if it was

Shut up. No, but I'm just saying that,
like... Moving. No, but you don't

Get out of here.

Poor Chris.

Why didn't he just let me fly the plane?

What did he think he was doing?

When you've been flying as long as he
has, and you're even half the pilot he

then you might have some idea how he's
feeling.

Rolly, you don't like me very much, do
you?

No, I don't.

So, um, what's my problem?

I'm young, I'm female, I'm blonde, all
three.

You forgot a big mouth and unladylike.

Rolly, have you seen Chris?

Not since you took him to the doctors.

What's the verdict?

I don't know. He's vanished.

Charlie Tango Delta, problem up here,
need assistance.

Charlie Tango Delta, please come in,
urgent.

Just fly us out of here. It could be a
really important message.

I guess if it's that important, they'll
call me back.

Move it.

Land the plane.

Now.

Oh, there's traffic on the runway. I
can't land the plane. Do it.

We can't. Well, here's the... Would you
listen to him, mate? I can't land the

plane. Just land the plane.

Okay, I'm landing. I'm landing.

Don't land.

Follow that plane.

Would you guys make up your mind? Land.

Don't land. Land. I said follow that
plane.

We'll be followed.

Boys, what do we say?

Lose them.

I can't lose them. You'd better.

I'd better? How? This isn't an F -18
fighter.

These planes are identical.

Then outfly them.

Bit of a problem there, too. I mean,
Scotty, he's almost pilot to me.

Actually, I've always thought I had a
bit of edge on Scotty.

Charlie Tango Delta, this is Tango
Whiskey Sierra.

You there, Jimbo?

Charlie Tango Delta, problems we got
any?

Tell me about it.

Listen, I've been advising you should
consider landing straight away.

That's a negative, no can do, total
impossibility, not an option, Tango

Jimbo, if you don't land, things will
get pretty ugly for me.

Not half as ugly as they'll get for me,
Tango Whiskey.

There's nothing I can do. Your friend
won't let him land.

Maybe Hammond needs a bit more
encouragement. Are you crazy? You can't

shoot out the window. Why not? It isn't
pressurised, is it? Mate, we're doing

180 knots. You shoot that out, I'll be
like, there was 320 Ks in a convertible.

Will any of them open? Yeah, only that.

Hey, let's get it open.

No, I did. Get off me, would you? Just
take the bloody thing. Help, help, help.

I'm just inspiring it. Do something.

I'm trying.

Keep going.

Right, come on, move it!

Forget about him! Just look for the
cape!

It fell over here!

Right, now you're flying me out of here.

Where do you think you're going?

Finders keepers.

We're in a deal. You can't double -cross
me too.

I'm sick of your whinging.

Put the case down and move away from it.

I think you find that belongs to me.

When did you switch cases?

After you.

Put it back in the last place.

Hey!

You can't leave us here!

Stay where you are.

Nobody's going anywhere.

Somebody stop them! You do it.

No way.

Don't look at me. I've got you both
covered.

It's your fault.

I didn't spend all this time planning
this for nothing.

Move in your history. Get them. Don't
move. You get them. It's your job.

Breathe.

Lauren, what are you doing here?

Nice to see you too. You never told me
what happened to the doctor. I was

worried.

It's not a good time.

I guess that much. That's why I'm here.
I've got bread, I've got wine, and you

haven't lived until you've tasted my
spaghetti cover now.

I don't need looking after.

I didn't quite hear that.

I said, you were right.

I was wrong.

This time.

I really do wish I had been wrong.

Are you sure?

No, it's a really great movie. I'll
never be able to watch it.

The sound of music again.

So, um, where did you get to all
afternoon?

Just around.

Chris, they can operate. Yeah, I'll be
fine.

Unless it's too badly damaged.

That's the worst case scenario and
highly unlikely.

Not unlikely enough for me.

Scared you'll never be able to fly
again.

A lot of people change careers.

Because they're not happy with what
they've got.

I love my job.

I don't want to change careers. I don't
want to change my life.

But I don't have a choice.

That decision will be made for me.

Everything I'd wanted to do with my life
was suddenly taken away the day Dad

died.

My first day at Big Sky, I was... I was
so nervous that I threw up

twice on the way there.

Yeah?

I'm just saying that I think I know how
you're feeling.

I know you love flying, Chris, but you
don't define Chris Manning by what Chris

Manning does. You define him by who he
is, the person he is. Lauren, flying's

not just something I do.

Flying's my whole life.

If I'm not a pilot, then what the hell
am I?

I was at Robbie's place and I was
thinking, well, what have I got?

I've stuffed up my family.

I've still got the big sky.

That's my life.

What if I didn't even have that?

What led?

And that's what kept me even more than
never being able to fly again.

I realized I've got nothing in my life.
Nothing at all.

You've got me.

Oh, why do you think I'm sitting here
getting drunk with you?

I care about you.

You don't have to go through this all on
your own.

Thanks.

It's late. I'd better get going.

You could stay.

Oh, yeah, right.

Must that be so, and then you're in with
the chance?

Well, I thought cooking me dinner was a
reasonable hint.

Well, I booked in.

The operation's Tuesday.

Right.

Do you want to keep working or would you
like to take some time off?

No, I... No.

But, hence I don't know what the verdict
will be.

Could you... Sure.

Wait a minute.

You don't know what I'm going to say
yet.

Yes, I do. You might want to come with
me just a minute.

Thanks.
