All language subtitles for Big Sky s01e36 The Choice

Big Scott, this is Charlie Tango Delta.

Big Scott, this is Charlie Tango Delta.

Big Scott, go ahead, Scotty.

I'm out west of Acre Creek.

There's been a prang. It looks like
somebody's injured. I'd better put down

see what I can do.

Doesn't seem to be anybody else around.

Sure, just let me know if you need me to
call you an ambulance or anything.

Yeah, will do.

Charlie Tango.

Mate, you're right. We've got to get to
Wanna Guy home, Steph.

You have to get to a hospital. No, no,
look, there's no time, okay?

I'm a cop.

My name's Joe Carlson. I'm a cop and my
partner's in trouble. Come on.

Do you know where Wanna Guy is?

Yeah, mate.

I thought he was dead already.

Mate, can you get these off?

I must have lost the key in the
rollover, mate. Listen, we've got to get

Wanagai, okay?

Well, we can't just leave him here. I'm
not. We'll come back. He can't go

anywhere. Listen, my partner will be
dead if we stay here any longer. We've

to go.

Just help me get him in the plane, will
you?

Yeah, that's more than he deserves.

Still haven't called her.

Why not?

I haven't worked up enough guts to.

Shane, this is your real mother.

You know, after all that work you went
through to track her down, don't you

think you should follow it up?

I know.

I know that. It's just... You know, I've
got this great family. Besides, what if

she doesn't like me? What if she doesn't
want anything to do with me?

Okay, so you don't call.

What's going to happen? It's going to
eat away at you for the rest of your

Yeah, I know.

So call her.

Hello. I have an appointment with Lauren
Allen.

I'm... Small Macintosh.

The TV star.

She's doing research for a movie role. I
arranged it months ago, but I forgot

all about it.

Anyway, it'll mean one less plan while
someone takes care of it.

Can you tell me now?

It's a bit late to remember.

Let me reschedule. Don't reschedule
anything for Lexi. She's doing Redmond.

Well, I've got to go into Beulah.

Well, that's not a reschedule either.

Well, Albie Roberts rang in a panic. His
gearbox and his ute's blown up. I

promised to send him another one. Lexi's
the only one who can do it. The stock

agency at Redmond called and asked if we
could squeeze in their fee. They'll be

a good regular customer.

I think your favour is better than mine.

You know, I was hoping that we'd be able
to work together without getting petty.

Who's being petty? I run the company. I
make the decisions. That Redmond mob are

time wasters. I dumped them years ago.
Oh, so you make a habit of it.

He's the drug dealer?

William the Billy Madigan, yeah, he's
into drugs.

Girl, he's a standover man, you name it.

Took me 12 months on the cover to set
him up.

So what happened? Did he jump you? Is
that he lost control of the cut?

No, he wanted to do a deal, you know,
trade some information for a lesser

charge. That's when he told me about
another undercover cop getting burned

today.

I thought it was crap to mention one
guy, and I knew it was fair dinkum.

I was just going too hard at it, and
that's when I lost it.

You're lucky he had his handcuffs on,
eh? He would have got your gun.

I'm undercover at our carry weapon.

What's our ETA?

20 minutes. Good.

We should be able to get her out of
there before the rest of them front.

Nick Sky, base. What are you doing?

I've got to let them know I'm diverting
to Wanagai. I thought you'd want some

backup anyway.

I haven't got time to brief local cops
properly, Aga.

They'll just plunder in and she's gone.

Nick Sky, was that you, Scotty?

Yeah, Shay, it's me.

Um, is anyone hurt? Do you need an
ambulance or anything?

Uh, no, no, no.

Everything's fine.

I just wanted to let you know that.

Hey, guess what?

Simone McIntosh is here.

Simone McIntosh?

So, have you had much flying experience?

Well, I think I might have been an eagle
in a former life.

Eagle? Other than that, all I know about
flying is take the exit row, which is

the problem.

Because the only way I can do justice to
a role is to really live it.

In every way.

So, um, what's the film about?

Oh, it's called Skyheart.

Set in World War II.

See, I play this nurse who is her own
woman. Right. A feisty, no -nonsense

feminist with the sultry insouciance of
Kathleen Turner in Body Heat.

See, when my pilot boyfriend crash
-lands in Borneo and is taken prisoner

Japanese POW camp... I take matters into
my own hands, dealing at Spitfire and

flying to my lover's rescue.

Wow. Sounds great. Sort of a reverse
English patient meets Top Gun kind of...

Sounds... Yeah.

Yeah.

So, um, you play a pilot? No, no. No.
That is the great part.

She's never flown before.

But during their incredibly intense
lovemaking sessions...

Ken, her pilot boyfriend, describes
everything about flying.

It's like a metaphor.

Their love saves them.

Wow.

So, um... Who's playing the boyfriend?

But Lauren said I had to go to Redmond.

Just ask Lauren.

She's the chief pilot around here, Lexi.

I know, but...

Okay, okay, I'll go to Beulah instead.

Listen, Big Sky is not here for Chris
Manning's personal pleasure, even if

is his attitude.

He's your pilot.

Who owns this company?

Lauren, if I don't go to Beulah, he'll
kill me. Look, leave him to me.

Kind of acoustic.

Hi.

You don't really know me.

My name is Jay McWilliam.

Yes.

I don't really know how to say this,

because I really seem to have written
first.

22 years ago.

Uh... Who is this?

I think, um... I think I'm your
daughter.

I always wondered if I'd get this girl.

Are you sure I look okay? Maybe I should
go home and get changed.

I can't. I told her this is what I'm
going to be wearing. No, no, come on,

on. You look fine.

Well, what about my hair? It's all
like... Jane, any woman would be proud

have you as a daughter.

But, Lauren, what if she's not? What if
I'm like a big disappointment to her?

How could you be?

You're a wonderful person. You're kind.

What's to disappoint?

What if I don't like her?

Oh, oh, I feel sick.

I don't know what I'm going to do.

This is a huge beginning.

Beginnings can be good.

Scary, but good.

Scary? Look at me, I'm petrified.

Now remember, your mother will be too.

All right, yeah. So come on.

She will be, hopefully.

Good luck.

No, she must have dumped him.

Stuff, Lauren.

Sounds like wounded pride to me.

Well, I don't get it. I thought they
really liked each other.

Maybe you wouldn't commit.

Who knows? Point is you're stuck in the
middle.

Tell me about it. Whichever way I jump,
I get my head bitten off.

Okay, then. This is it.

There's got to be a better way than
that.

Whoever misses out, I'll back you up.

Heads, you go to Bulow. Tails, you go to
Redmond.

Half years.

I'm the chief pilot.

You have no right to decide which jobs
get priority.

I do, and they're just favours for
mates.

They're not going to make us any money.
I don't want to hear any more. I'm sick

of arguing.

Good. So am I.

Passengers are waiting on board.

Is this a lover's tip or the end of the
line for you two? Just so I don't say

the wrong thing. End of the line.

Thought you might have had something.
Oh, thank you, sir.

No one remembers a flying man. Yeah,
well, you picked it.

You got the atomic drop. What was left?

The sleeper. People always like the
sleeper. Leopard Man had the sleeper.

that was left was a flying mirror of the
Irish whip. I mean, everybody uses the

Irish whip. It's like the body slam.

You know, what sort of trademark is
that?

What are you trying to say here? You
want my atomic drop?

You always get the first four, don't
you? You get the all -important third

You know, I'd swap any day the first for
the third.

And you've got the atomic drop. And you
want me to have to take the losing fours

and only have the flying mirror?

You know?

What the hell sort of wrestler would
that make me?

Marshmallow.

Don't ever use that name.

Okay, the house was just beyond that
tree line.

I shouldn't be long.

You'll be rendered split, okay? These
guys don't muck around.

No radio contact!

I don't let him out of your sight!

Look!

Ask him about the heights, go on. Ask
him.

He reckons I was wrong putting it in
tights. These bad guys wear tights. Good

guys are skin and boots.

Am I right or am I right?

Well, I haven't seen any good guys in
tights, but, you know, that doesn't

mean... See?

You should have listened to me in the
first place. Listen to you?

He wanted to call her Twin Peaks.

Twin Peaks. Yeah, well, I like the
bruise, brother. That's catchy you came

with that.

I did.

That's mine.

You never come up with anything. The PR
chick came up with it. Only because I

gave her all the parameters.

The next belt, I get to carry the belt
into the ring.

Who had the belt last time?

He had the belt last time. You know,
that was local network stuff.

Three men and a dog saw that.

This is prime time national.

Faster.

Slower.

Got that?

I think so.

Faster.

Oh.

How's that? Great.

I mean, you learn quickly.

Must be my teacher.

Well.

So, why did you decide to become a
pilot?

Well, a lot of reasons.

I've always loved flying, and I guess
it's the first thing I found that I was

truly great at.

The danger.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah, mainly, though.

There's nothing like the adrenaline rush
of trying to keep control of a plane in

a Force 10 gale with only one engine.

Oh, you must be so brave.

Oh, you get used to it.

I had no idea men like you existed.

You can't do Redmond. What about your
other job?

I can do Redmond between Gingerbine and
Acacia Brooke, but you'll have to do

Lawrence for me.

Lawrence and Bulow. There's no way I'm
going to have time.

Well, it's better that'll get yelled at.

Okay. Are you sure?

Look, why should you cop it just because
Chris and Lauren bust up?

Thanks. See you. Good luck, mate.

Who the hell are you?

Car overturned. I found you.

What?

Where's Carlson?

He'll be back soon.

How long till he's back?

Can't really be sure.

What am I doing in these?

I think you know that, mate.

Mate.

What I know is that depriving a police
officer of his liberty is going to land

you in some very serious trouble.

What police officer?

Me.

I've been working undercover for nearly
a year trying to get Carlson.

Where are we?

Don't tell me.

What a guy, right?

altimeter?

The height.

Yeah.

And this is your temperature.

Flying's the greatest sensation.

Say that again.

And I thought flying was the greatest
sensation.

Exactly what he says after the first
time we met.

Look,

I was taking him to prison, not the
other way around, all right?

Yeah, right.

He was wearing these and I was driving.

He threw himself at me, we rolled, then
he must have got the key off me when I

was out to it.

Nice try, mate.

Listen, mate, this is his territory, OK?

If he comes back and we're still here,
it's bang, bang and bye -bye.

Look, did you ask to see any ID?

No, of course not.

Then what makes you so sure he's a cop?

Well, how can I be so sure you're a cop?
Have you got any ID on you? I've

already told you, I'm undercover.

That's what he said.

Look, was he armed?

No. Do you want to lead me back to that
wreck?

Yeah, of course you did.

Has he got you to radio up the backup?

They'll be putting his partner's life at
risk.

That's what he said, right?

Listen, mate, let me tell you what he's
really going to do, okay?

He's going to go and get a gun, and then
get his mates, and he's going to come

back here any minute now and get rid of
me, all right?

Get me out of here, pal, then I'm dead.

Are you ready to order?

Yeah, I have a copy of that.

Oh, um, that one.

Mate, I take off and you're lying. I'm
stuck with an escaped criminal. I've

a cop and his partner in big trouble.
Mate, if you don't take off, you and I

in more than big trouble, mate. We're
dead. How many times do I have to tell

you? Look, I can't do anything to you,
can I, mate? If you don't believe me,

then radio the boss and he'll vouch for
you, all right? Joe said I couldn't use

the radio. He said it was too risky.
Those guys know I'm here already, mate.

They can listen to me trying to save
myself all they like.

Well, how come you didn't want to use
the radio before? If you'd let me, you'd

still think I'm the bad guy.

Yeah, Magnus. G'day, it's Bill. Look,
I'm in real trouble here, mate. Over.

Where are you?

Yeah, I'm stuck at Warner guy. Carlson
did a runner on me, mate. Told this

to pick this up that he's the undercover
cop, not me. Can you believe it, eh?

What? Yeah, piece of scum. Look, you've
got to tell the pilot my rank or your

rank or anything so I can get out of
here before Carlson comes back with his

mates. You got that?

Right. Don't know if you can ask away,
mate.

Uh, yeah, Magnus, listen, I just need
a... I'm Detective Inspector Magnus.

And that's Detective Sergeant Bill
Madigan with you.

He's an undercover officer and his
registration number is GN406D.

Ask him.

What's your registration number?

GN406D.

Can't believe you. Right.

Get him over to Meryton before you're
responsible for the police officer's

death, not to mention your own.

You got that?

Need any more proof?

If not, it is nothing like that rebirth
thing. That was a once -off.

And I think you are totally out of line
even mentioning that.

Okay, okay, I accept your apology.

See you then, Howie.

Howie is so excited. We finally found
the real Ken.

He'll be here tonight.

What? He wants to come here?

So he can see you in your natural domain
as the fearless winged champion of the

skies.

We should go through the script so you
can audition properly.

Do you think I should, like, get an
agent?

Yes. What about my nose? Do you think it
needs to be... It's beautiful.

Echo Whiskey Victor, this is Jango with
the Sierra.

Echo Whiskey Victor, flying high and
smiling.

Everything's gone like a dream. What
about you?

Done Redmond.

Bad news is I was in such a rush I
forgot to drain my fuel tank and I'm

with an engine down at Gingerbine.

Well, I could come by and pick you up, I
suppose.

Yeah, no problem. See you soon.

Garbage. You don't even take as many
falls as I do. Because you didn't go to

choreography class.

You can't kill. I can.

Right, that's it.

You are right about the type.

You knock off the Marshmallow Man bit.

And it is all right to make your
surprise move on the second rebound

the third rebound. Now shut up and let
me fly the plane.

I just thought you'd like to know that
the stock agency at Redmond, they're so

grateful that we did them a favour.

Lauren,

if you've called him to gloat... I'm not
gloating. I'm proving a point.

Yeah, that you can pull a power trip and
make Lexi listen to you before me.

I run a company. Sometimes I have to
make unpopular decisions.

Yeah, especially after I've just made
one, right?

Jay? I

thought

you changed your mind.

Of course not.

I would not.

But I didn't have enough money for a
taxi, and the bus took so long.

We're going to do it. I told you.

I never want to go through this again.

Don't tell me. Tell Chris and Lauren to
stop taking their problems out on us.

You tell them I've been yielding enough
today. Thank you very much.

So that's the cops down there?

Sure is.

So when you were taking Carlton to
Meriden all along?

Yeah. Why?

Police said he was taking you to Old.

Well, haven't you figured it out yet
who's lying to you?

All right, well, what are they doing at
the airstrip if you guys are driving?

Well, when I told them I was stuck with
a pilot, I guess they'd try and figure

it out for themselves.

And where did it come from? I can't help
but notice.

My accent.

Poland.

My parents moved out here when I was 13.

You're Polish.

I'm not Australian, wow.

I mean, well, I am, but I've got
something else in me.

Every time I thought of you, I worried
so much.

I'm so glad it worked out for you.

Thought about me?

Of course.

All the time.

Every time.

Then why didn't you come home at 16?

Living in a country town.

I felt so different, out of place, after
Poland.

It was hard to make friends.

But there was this young man who fixed
my father's car.

He was always so friendly and interested
in me.

Never made fun of my accent.

He didn't want to know when I told him I
was pregnant.

And my parents were so old -fashioned.

There was only one option.

Well, I could have run away, I suppose.

I don't care.

It's heavy.

I never wanted to give you away.

They hardly let me look at you before
you were gone.

You tiny little onion.

With big eyes and little tucked -up
cages.

Anya.

Anya.

Do you like it?

It's beautiful.

It's all I've had in my mind of you.

Little Anne being carried out of my
hospital room.

And now I've found her. She's a
beautiful woman.

Couldn't have done it without you, mate.
No worries, mate. I'm glad to be of

service. Sorry I couldn't have got you
here sooner.

Well, I had a little exit long planned,
and then Carlton came along and pipped

on the party cake, but thanks to you,
I'm okay.

Long planned.

Lucky you catch on fast, mate.

My pleasure, Detective Sergeant Madigan.

It's a dumb deal.

I swear they should have been here by
now.

Let me just go check.

It all comes down to one man, one plane,
one bullet,

and two hearts.

That's all that stands between dignified
freedom.

a terrible success.

Terrifying. Not terrible, but it was
wonderful. Oh, well, it's a lot easier

learning the plane manual, I tell you.

Okay. Eight o 'clock sharp.

I'll bring the shampoos.

You bring the producers.

Okay.

Be careful.

Nothing ever goes wrong here.

The milk run.

Paula, we are not going to make it.
What?

I calculated we should have plenty.

It's these headwinds. I thought you'd
check.

I did. They said moderate.

Oh, God.

Oh, that's the end of the fuel.

You'll have to get to the end of the
runway.

Great.

We'll have to get Tide back.

We've only been going out a few months.

I met him at the Students' Union.

They were doing a last -time concert.

Excuse me.

We're closing up.

All right, thanks.

Would you like to come over for dinner?

It won't be much.

Yeah, I'd love to.

And maybe I can bring some photos of
when I was a kid.

I don't even know what to call you.

What's wrong with Carol?

I don't know.

You know, you're my mother.

You want to call me mum?

No.

What about Matka?

That's Polish for mother.

Matka. Matka.

Shall I just call me Carol?

Thank you for finding me.

Thank you for wanting to be found.

You're both being totally irresponsible.

Flying with less than minimum fuel is
unforgivable.

And while the ASP are sniffing around,
you're both grounded.

I don't know what the hell you think you
were pulling.

What do you really want to know?

It was to keep you two happy.

I mean, you wanted her to go to Bulow
and you wanted her to go to Redmond and

neither of you would give an inch and
we'd get caught in the middle.

I just reckon it's you two who'd better
get your act together or you won't have

any pilots.

I hope you're satisfied.

Me?

It would have been fine if you'd
listened to me about those time wasters

Redmond. It's a business, not a mate
taxi server. Get off it. You're just

to get back at me.

Oh, please, if I would be so juvenile.

There's clearly still a problem here if
pilots are putting themselves at risk to

keep us happy.

Okay, we need to sort out the chain of
command because obviously sharing

authority isn't working.

Sharing an office isn't helping.

Maybe I should move out.

Then nobody will step on anyone else's
toes.

Good idea.

I'll do it tonight.

You don't need to hurry.

I know.

No, I'd rather get it out of the way.

Where's the plane?

I told him to wait.

I told you to wait. I'm so sorry. The
other guy told me that he was the cop. I

spoke to his boss.

Yeah, well, where is he?

He knocked me out of Meriden. I don't
know.

Oh, great.

Twelve months' work down the toilet.

Don't mind my husband. He's usually a
bit more grateful when somebody saves

life. Oh, you guys are married?

Yeah.

That's why I was so on edge.

Look, I'm so sorry.

Scotty. Sam.

Yeah, sorry, Scotty, but you should have
lifted, you know.

One man, one bullet, and one hat.

One man, one plane, one heart.

You are Jimbo?

Yes. This is for you.

My darling, darling pilot.

You don't know how painful it has been
for me to pen these words.

My heart cries for your touch, but I
know it cannot be.

My producers have changed the storyline.

Ken is now a frogman who was captured by
a Japanese midget submarine.

I'm so sorry, but I cannot share my love
with a d 'Artagnan of the skies when my

heart must now flow fully with the
exotic current of the deep. I pray you

understand.

Romeo Hotel Sierra, out.

I was born to play a frogman.

Aren't we all?

That'll be $22, including the toll.
