All language subtitles for Big Sky s02e09 The Heart Of The.Matter

Don't call me.

Everything

alright?

Yeah. Oh, I didn't mean to wake you.

It was this one, my staff.

My gift.

I just wanted to make sure everything
was okay at work.

What? I'm jealous.

As you

may

recall, I came to suspect that Major
General Ellison was the mastermind

the theft of automatic weapons from the
army, many of which are yet to be

recovered.

I have no evidence to prove my
suspicions.

Or even that it was he who put a bomb on
our plane after we'd visited him at

Pendley Army Base.

You were lucky to escape.

It's vital he be convicted and removed
from office as soon as possible.

I'm afraid we can't just bump him. He's
too high up the ladder.

Too many embarrassing questions for too
many ministers.

Exactly.

That is why we have to get enough
evidence to prove his guilt.

Pendley's a virtual fortress.

Investigating Ellison without him
knowing it'll be very difficult.

Modern technology, gentlemen.

Few bugs, hidden cameras.

We can investigate him without ever
putting a foot inside...

Microphones,

cameras will be relayed back to this
office. And any pertinent information

be phoned through to Manning and myself.

We'll fly up to Pendley first thing
tomorrow to await developments.

We'll also have our own portable
tracking device to monitor any movements

elephant starfish.

And then it'll act as a major general
will incriminate himself without us

to lift a finger.

Targets are right.

It's Ellison.

Ellison's on the move.

Yeah.

Tar.

Yeah, you should take a call.

Too short to trace. He's arranged to
meet somebody off the base.

No name. Some money has been mentioned
and the need to hurry. I think we can

assume that this isn't army business.

That doesn't mean it has anything to do
with guns.

Chris, he knows we suspect him. There's
still a significant number of weapons

out there we've never located.

He's got to get rid of them as quick as
possible.

Any idea where he could be heading?

It's not army -related.

There are no other military
establishments in the direction he's

If it was an odd place for doing arms
deals, he'd be buying automatic weapons

out here.

Vigilantes, disgruntled farmers, bikers.

Probably just a meeting place.

Or a safe place to store the gun.

Or somewhere near enough to the base in
case you need them in a hurry.

What is Laurie Ellison up to?

Rosie,

your dad just called.

Your mum's in hospital.

Oh, she's sick.

Did dad say how sick she was?

Did she collapse?

Well, no, he just said that he had to
take her in in a hurry and that you had

meet her there.

No.

I've got to work today. I'm still down
for two flights.

Don't worry about it. We'll cover for
you.

You go and see your sick mum.

She's always sick.

She had rheumatic fever as a child, so
she's got a weak heart.

And then she had to have a valve
replaced, and then all sorts of other

went wrong. It's not the first time.

I still think you should go and see her.
Yeah, me too.

It'll be fine. I can go later.

Rosie, a second in charge while Chris is
away.

I order you to go and see your sick mum.

Because, you know, your dad's on the
board. You know, he'd kill us.

All right.

All right. I'm sure she'll be fine.

She always is.

Looks like he's arrived.

Yeah, let's fly over and see what we can
see.

Well, I'll just do one pass.

I want to alert him.

Private house.

He did.

See all that security?

They obviously don't encourage visitors.

Doesn't mean he's keeping stolen weapons
there.

House belongs to Mick Cooner.

Not the colourful racing identity and
alleged crime boss, Mick Cooner.

Alleged.

Lots of interesting business, Mick.

Prostitution, narcotics, money
laundering, not to mention dealing in

goods like ex -military issued guns.

I'll have surveillance put on Kunis'
property and his house and nightclub and

city.

If it turns up.

Come back and question him later when
Alison is gone.

Kunis is our key to getting Alison.

How is she?

I'm not sure this time, Rose.

She was having trouble breathing, so the
doctor wanted her in here straight

away. They've done a lot of tests.

Did it come on suddenly? I think it's
been brewing for a couple of weeks.

Getting upset about your leaving home
didn't help.

So that's it. It's nothing serious.

We're waiting to talk to the
cardiologist.

Do we need to get some more blood on
standby? Keep an eye on it. If it goes

any lower, we'll have to transfuse him.

Bedtime. We extubate the patient now?

His oxygen saturation's pretty good.
How's he done overnight?

He's fine. Good. But today... Sorry to
keep you. Dr Fletcher, my daughter,

Rosie. Rosie.

We've got your wife's test results back.

Would you care to come through?

Dr. Richard Fletcher looking after Mum.

Yeah, we're lucky. He's the best.

Yeah, I know, but he's the one that does
all the transplants and everything.

Yeah.

Now, according to these results, the
situation's become pretty clear.

It's nothing we can't handle, but I'm
afraid our options are few. The time is

short.

Hi. Hi.

You're late.

Yeah. Yeah, I had to go to hospital.

What?

Oh, Mum's sick.

I mean, really, really sick this time.

She needs a heart transplant straight
away or else she might die.

Jeez, I'm sorry.

I didn't know she was that sick.

Ellison, did you say?

Never heard.

Mr Kunos, he was seen at your country
estate earlier today.

Seen? By who?

Were you a cop?

I don't talk to cops. Mick, if you don't
tell me what I want to know, you're

going to be in real trouble.

Oh, is that right?

Well, maybe this army bloke did visit my
place, but I wouldn't know. I haven't

been there for days.

Been in town all week. You can prove you
weren't there today.

Sure. Ask Richard Fletcher. He was
having lunch with him.

Richard Fletcher, the surgeon?

Having a heart -to -heart, were you?
Come on, Mick.

You're not telling me the head of the
Cardiac Research Institute is an

of yours? As a matter of fact, he is.

So why don't you ask him?

He'll tell you exactly what I've just
said.

I wasn't anywhere near my property
today.

I was with Dr Fletcher.

The customs officer who let the guns
through on the docks did it for the

I read his statement.

And that's the end of his involvement in
the wreck?

Look, I find it really difficult to
believe that Eddie Beck would be on the

in the first place, but to be working
for a group of thugs like Mick Kunos, I

don't think so.

Anyway, Chris, it'll be in his
statement.

Not necessarily.

You put Mick Kunos in, you know what's
going to happen to you.

I need you to go through your record.

See if Cunard has run foul of Cutsons in
the past.

Well, it would really help if I knew why
you needed to know.

Oh, you can't tell me, can you? Because
it's a job for Lightfoot.

Well, yeah, but I couldn't say anyway.

I don't exactly know what we're looking
for at Patton or Link, anything.

We need to find it fast.

You see, we know a bit too much about
someone and he knows that we know it.

Are you in danger?

Not if you look through your records as
soon as possible.

Well, you've obviously decided that you
can trust Lightfoot.

You'll have to keep working for him
anyway.

Yeah, well, that's not a problem for
you, I've told you.

Don't you think it's ironic? I mean, you
and I get together to investigate this

man and I end up dealing with not one
but two secretive men.

Hello?

Wrong number.

Mick Kunos.

Sure. I'll have a look through my
records and see what I can dig up.

Another drink?

He said we were having lunch together.

That's right. I know it's preposterous.
That's why I had to confirm he must have

been lying.

Yes, of course. I'm sorry I've had a
very busy week. It's slipped my mind. We

did have lunch together, yes.

I see.

Where?

At my house, I think.

Yes, that's right.

Dr. Fletcher, you seem an unlikely
acquaintance with Mick Curnoff.

He was a patient of mine, and he offered
a substantial sum of money for the

artificial heart research unit I'm
trying to set up.

And that's why you were having lunch
together?

I prefer not to accept tainted money, of
course.

But you've got no idea how hard it is to
get corporations and governments to

invest in this kind of expensive R &D,
let alone individuals.

You seemed surprised when I mentioned
that Curnoff had said you'd been

Precisely because I insisted he not tell
anyone. I can't possibly allow his name

to be publicly associated with mine.

A patient. I'll have to go. Excuse me.

time off if I needed it.

Chris shouldn't make decisions for me.

He probably thought he was helping.

Thanks, I already had two today.

Daddy, how's that going?

Fine.

Sorry.

Shouldn't you be at the hospital?

What for?

Spend time with your mother, of course.

Scotty, don't push me. Don't understand
how hard it is. No, you're right. I

don't. Look, I love my mother. When she
died, it almost killed me, so I don't

get why you feel this way. So you're
saying that I don't love my mother?

It's obvious I can't say I'd do anything
to help you, so I'll just stop trying.

I'm going to go to the library.

Scotty.

You found a donor heart.

It's at Kirrigan Hospital, about an hour
away. It's a perfect match.

Thank God. I didn't think it'd be here
so soon. Yes, it has been quick. We've

been lucky this time.

Your condition means you've been moved
to the top of the waiting list.

We're paging Dr Fletcher. We'll have you
ready for surgery as soon as the organ

gets here.

Will you call Rosie?

I have to see her before I go in.

Of course.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm all right.

Your mum's being prepped now.

So she must be pretty dopey.

She's not too bad.

She needs to feed you.

OK, Mum, don't try to.

But now you always remember me, isn't
it?

Sick.

In bed.

No, it's not.

You're going to get better.

For the first time in a long time,
you're going to be healthy.

I just want you to know... I'm sorry.

It's not your fault.

You had to miss out on so much.

That you and your father had to do so
much without me.

It's not your fault either.

I wish you really believed that.

I sometimes think, if I hadn't been so
sick all the time,

you and Sam wouldn't have had a reason
to stay with me.

Mum, isn't there any time to talk about
that?

It wouldn't be our last chance. Chance,
I won't. You're going to be fine.

You don't know that.

Yes, I do.

We have to be positive.

I tried to be honest with you.

I wanted us to settle things.

to have a meeting this morning. I need
to know where your husband is.

It was a very important arrangement.

He says, let me know where you know
where he is.

He's made about ten of these calls, all
the same.

Somebody must know where Kunos is.

We had a meeting.

It can't be delayed any longer.

He's called Kunos' wife, the country
house.

And every strip joint and nightclub that
Kunos has got a hand in.

Ellison is obviously desperate to have a
meeting about something. I'd say to get

rid of those guns.

Any mention of where the meeting was
meant to take place?

Afraid not.

Deliberately vague about detail, as
always.

If Kunos is the buyer, why not raid his
property? See what turns up. No point.

Without Ellison on the premises in
possession of the rifles, we've got

to convict him on. What about looking
into Richard Fletcher?

You said he was lying when he gave Kunos
an alibi.

The question is why, and does it have
anything to do with what Kunoff and

Ellison are up to?

Half -surgeon smuggling gun?

Well, Fletcher's very cosy with the
Prime Minister's inner circle.

He's certainly got the contact and
influence to get away with an awful lot.

Fletcher aside, Ellison is panicked
about something, and when people panic,

start to make mistakes.

All I need is that one wrong move.

OK.

Say, search and rescue.

OK, who do you want?

Whoever's closest to Chase National
Park.

Paula's miles away.

Yeah, and she's by herself.

You're going to need a spotter and a
pilot.

Jimbo and Blake are out doing those
photos in Chopper. Okay.

Romeo Hotel, Sierra. Romeo Hotel, go
ahead, Chris.

Jimbo, I'm diverting you to a search and
rescue.

Car's gone over a cliff at Chase
National Park.

What's your ETA?

Oh, about 15, 20 minutes tops.

Okay. Let me know as soon as you've
cited something.

On our way.

Romeo Hotel Sierra.

This is a disgrace.

Where the hell is Dr Fletcher? We're
very sorry. This has never happened

Well, keep paging him. Dr Fletcher's
second in charge, Dr Walters, is an

excellent surgeon.

He's been on the transplant team for
years. He's grabbing up now. I don't

the second in charge. I want Fletcher.
He'll take over the procedure as soon as

we locate him.

There's already been a delay with the
donor organ. We can't afford to wait any

longer. Your wife's in good hands.

Don't worry.

I've emailed a complete file to your
office, however, here's a summary.

Basically, your suspicions about Kunos
were correct.

He was identified by customs officers
late last month and charged with

offences, however, never convicted.

It's the same set -up.

Stubborn weapons being slipped through
the docks onto container ships bound for

New Guinea.

But how did Kunos get away with it?

Well, apparently the guns originally
belonged to the army and a Brigadier

Ellison gave evidence which cleared
Kunos.

however eventually led to the sentencing
of another man. I think his name's in

there somewhere.

Thank you, Miss Mitchell.

Your assistance has been invaluable.

I wonder why they couldn't find Dr
Fletcher.

It's not like a transplant surgeon to
not answer his page.

If it had been a few months ago, I could
have had a reasonable guess as to where

he'd got to.

It's not exactly public knowledge, but
his wife was an alcoholic.

I met her a couple of times.

Drunk. Loud mouth.

He must have spent half his waking life
trying to cope with her binges.

I can't imagine a guy like him with a
woman like that.

I'm sure he didn't in the beginning
either.

You don't always end up with the life or
the partner you think you've chosen.

Mum wasn't so sick.

Do you think you'd still be together?

I care for her very much, Rosie.

Yeah, I know, but because you love her
or because she's sick and you feel

obliged to her?

You know it's been hard on all of us.

Come on, talk about it, Dad. You know
how it's made me feel. Am I the only one

that's resented it?

Am I being selfish or have you felt
those things too?

Of course I have.

I never liked feeling that way.

When your life's ruled by a sick person,
it's hard not to sometimes.

I wish you'd told me that. It would have
made me feel heaps better.

Well, I thought you had enough to deal
with.

I didn't want to load my problems onto
you.

You did anyway, Dad.

All the things I had to do, because Mum
couldn't.

I'm sorry, Rose. I thought you were
happy to.

I was, but I was so busy thinking of
myself that I didn't stop to think about

how Mum might have felt about it. I
mean, did we shut her out? Did we make

feel useless and unloved?

We coped as best we could at the time.

I don't know if we did, if that's the
way we made Mum feel.

This is about where the cast has gone
over.

Yeah, I can't see anything.

Well, it's a pretty dense bush. I'll try
coming at it from another angle.

Hang on, hang on, hang on.

Yeah, I've got it. I can see the scar
where it's gone over. The cast is below

it.

Are you okay?

Yes, yes.

Help me up.

Thank you. It's a nasty accident. Are
you sure you're okay? Yes, yes.

Let's get out of here.

What was that? What?

Look, I'm meant to be at the hospital. I
have to get out of here. Just wait

there a minute.

Please, I'm needed at the hospital.

Fletcher's okay, but Kunos is in a bad
way, so we're heading straight to the

hospital.

Romeo, Hotel Sierra.

Copy that, Big Sky Base.

No wonder Ellison was having trouble
finding Kunos.

Interesting to see how he reacts when he
learns what's happened to Kunos.

I'll make sure that he does.

So how does Fletcher fit into this
picture?

And where were you going with Kunos?

Hopefully we're about to find out.

Hello? You are there. I've been calling
you.

Mum's in surgery. They found a heart for
her.

Already? That's fantastic.

Yeah, yeah, it is, isn't it?

You OK?

Yeah.

Oh, yeah, it's just all the waiting
around, that's all.

But I had a really good chat to Mum
before she went in. I had a good chat to

too, so... You can come in, could you?

I just got the feeling before that you'd
rather I stayed out of your family

business. No.

You're giving me all these mixed
messages, Rosie.

Well, I can't help but feel a little bit
mixed up right now, Scotty. Forget it.

You have a date for the theatre?

She is.

Scrub up and join them.

Are you sure you're all right to go into
surgery?

I just want to go and see how they're
going.

A few corrections, Doctor.

I have a patient in the theatre.

I'll make an appointment if I may.

You've been in a serious accident.

It's just a few scratches. I'll be fine.

that x -ray I ordered.

Oh yeah, it's blank.

Prepare for a transfusion.

Given 10 milligrams of morphine and 10
milligrams of maximum.

And someone organized that bed and took
some kids. Meg, I'm never going to let

you into the club. There's no money,
Tom.

So what was going on between you and
Fletcher and Allison?

That's right.

Ask him.

Ask him how his wife died.

Allison, Fletcher's wife.

What has she got to do with it?

Major General Ellison called you
yesterday, several times, looking for

husband. What was that about?

I don't know.

You sure?

Yes. Can you leave us alone now?

With pleasure.

After you've made a phone call to
Ellison.

I'm not going to do anything for you.

You've got nice houses, Mrs Kernan,
filled with nice things.

It would be a great pity if the police
found out how you obtained those.

You'll need those templates in this time
of grief, my dear.

You barked at her. Yep.

Call Ellison.

Tell him Mick is in a serious condition.

He's raving, saying all sorts of things
about guns. You got that?

Guns.

Ellison?

I think.

What's he fit?

How much is he fit?

What's he said, woman? Tell me.

Something's put the wind up him.

A man in a hurry.

Kunot's wife mentioned guns.

We'll get a fix on where he's headed,
then call Lightfoot.

It was a textbook procedure, no
unexpected problems.

Dr Fletcher supervised the final moments
and is very happy with the way

everything was performed.

Jocelyn seems to have pulled through
very well indeed.

Thank God.

Can we see her?

She's in intensive care.

She's regained consciousness, but she's
still very groggy, of course.

Dr Walter, where is he? I'd like to
thank him.

He's been called away to another
patient.

And Dr Fletcher, where would I find him
now?

I'm sorry, I can't speak to you now. I
need to rest.

Mick Kunos is dead.

Yes, I was told.

Did you speak to him before he died? Did
he say anything?

Not much.

Except to ask how your wife died.

Kunos is... Timing was perfect.

He was at this charity do.

Francis was there, drunk, making a scene
again.

The next day he came to see me,
complaining of severe chest pain.

He was sympathetic.

How hard it must be for a man in my
position.

So on.

I said something like, I should fall
under a bus.

He said it could be arranged. I said,
how?

I was joking.

We didn't seriously discuss anything.

Sometime later I came home and found

her there.

She was lying there.

Dead.

Are you telling me you had Kunoth kill
your wife?

She was difficult. She made my life
hell, but... I loved

her.

So much.

I'm sorry.

I don't hate you. I don't.

I

don't.

It was too late until he came wanting
money.

Of course, I refused to pay him.

But you were in too deep.

He started making threats.

He was desperate for money. I had no
choice. We were on our way to collect it

when we had the accident.

What's all this got to do with Ellison?

Who? Well, I know you three were after
something. I know it involved stolen

guns. I'm sorry, I don't know what
you're talking about. I don't know

about guns or somebody called Ellison.

That you covered for Kunos's meeting
with Ellison. You said you were having

lunch. You lied about having lunch.

Well, of course I had to protect myself.

Are you honestly telling me that you
have never heard the name Ellison?

No, I swear.

And you know nothing about Kunos and the
guns?

No, he never mentioned anything about
guns.

Bugger it.

I swear. I suppose you will have to pass
all this over to the police.

Yeah.

It's a shame.

I never wanted Francis to die.

We all have dark thoughts, Dr. Fletcher.

Pity.

All that never had to happen at all.

Lightfoot.

Is he?

Okay.

Items 472, 3 and 4.

being exhibits A, B and C in the case of
the Crown and Riley.

Thanks, Grace.

Now, taking receipt of these items, you
are obliged to guarantee that they shall

be taken directly to court, shall not be
tampered with and shall be returned to

the evidence -holding room until no
longer required.

I agree to all the above.

Hey, good luck in court. OK, see you
later. Bye.

Amazing what you find on the streets.

You better come here.

You don't want me to call you here.

You hang up on me when I phone you at
home. If I was a paranoid type, I might

start thinking that you're trying to
give me the flick. What are you doing

Guess.

I thought we agreed last time was the
last time.

No, you agreed.

I didn't.

See, because I can't.

Can I?

Thanks to you.

Johnny, how long do I have to keep
paying?

For as long as I need you to.

It's been a long time between drinks,
Gracie.

And you owe me.

Okay, but this is the last time.

When?

Late tonight.

I don't think I can hang out that long.
Well, you're just going to have to.

I'm assisting in a major government
investigation. There is a lot of focus

department right now.

Well, you can handle it.

You always have.

In the same room we followed him along
yesterday.

In an army truck.

My bet he's headed back to the Kunuk
property to collect the remaining guns

before anyone else finds them and traces
them back to him.

Who told you all this, Dr Fletcher? No,
surveillance equipment.

But if Dr. Fletcher gave Kunos an alibi
to cover his meeting with Ellison

yesterday... Dr. Fletcher was an
unwilling client of Kunos on a totally

unrelated matter.

Kunos just exploited his holdout.

So we don't know for sure that the guns
are being stored at the Kunos property?

I think we do.

Ellison panics when he's told that Kunos
is shooting his mouth off on his

deathbed, races off in a truck because
there are several cases to collect.

They were using the Kunos property as a
storage point.

Oh. One thing that Dr. Fletcher did tell
me was that Kunos was desperately in

need of cash. I'll bet to pay Ellison
for those guns.

So the deal didn't go down yesterday,
and that's why Ellison was trying to

him. Kunos died. The guns are still at
the house.

I've notified the military police.
They're on their way. They'll meet us at

property.

We'll get there. We're doing twice as
speed.

As long as we catch Ellison red -handed.

Hello? Hi.

I'm going to stay until visiting hours
are over.

Sure.

Look, I'm glad she's okay.

Yeah, it is good.

We might be able to work things out
finally.

That's good.

What's the matter?

What do you want me to say?

How's the study going?

It's good.

I guess we'll see you later then.

Yeah, okay.

Elephant's there. How's it going,
Pastor?

We're only minutes away. We'll make it.
If he's left with the evidence by the

time we land, we've missed our only
chance of getting him.

We won't. Fuck me.

Come on. This will get a missy.

We'll make it.

Me getting wine!

Hang on.

The guns in the truck?

They certainly are.

Who is Kunos selling them to?

Where were they going?

What were they for?

Speak to my lawyer.

Can we trust the military police to take
care of Ellison?

I'm just going to call in a few mates
and do a deal.

Fortunately, there's enough damning
evidence against him. He won't get away

-free this time.

Oh, that's good.

We can stop looking over our shoulders.
I don't think we're in danger anymore.

But that's not the end of the matter,
Chris.

This wasn't a one -off operation.

Customs stumbled across it about a year
ago, but who knows how long it had been

running before that.

And how many weapons they stole.

I don't know where they ended up.

We know some were intended for overseas,
but for the rest... Well, it might all

come out when your face was caught.

No, I doubt it.

Ellison will only admit to the crime he
was arrested for.

He's not going to own up to things he's
got away with.

There could be a stockpile of army
-issue weapons somewhere in this

It begs the question, who's got them and
what were they intended for?

Whatever they want. That kind of
firepower.

You know, I'm going to go to Cuthbert.

It'd be great.

If I can dig back far enough, I might be
able to find something.

Well, I know she's working late tonight.

Miss Mitchell.

Mr Lightfoot.

Sorry, didn't mean to frighten you.
Certainly.

I didn't realise anyone was here.

I could have heard you'd be working
late.

I need to look back into your record.

Is everything all right?

Oh, yes. You just scared me, that's all.

You were saying something about...
Excuse me.

I'm sure you have a good explanation for
this.

I did.

You don't have to explain to me.

You realize I'm obliged to report this.

You're probably looking at immediate
suspension pending an internal inquiry.

Mr Lightfoot.

You're on.

What were you doing?

Nothing. It's a mistake. Look,
Lightfoot... I haven't done anything

Except I was in the evidence room and I
had it in my hand.

Well, if you haven't done anything
wrong, it'll be sorted out.

I'm going to be suspended.

There'll be an inquiry.

This is my word against something that
looks really damning.

Oh, great, Christina. Just walk out.
Great.

I'm not going to do that.

Promise?

So you're moving out?

Yeah, I guess I am.

Where are you going to go?

I want to go home.

Mum's going to need a lot of help and I
want to be there for her.

I can understand that.

I just have to sort out my own life
before I can start sharing it with

else.

If everybody did that, the whole world
would be single.

There is a bright side.

What's that?

You can get on with your study without
me hassling you.

Well, I enjoy being hassled sometimes.

So make sure you do.

All work and no play, huh?

Got it.

I know.

We still must see each other, huh?

Yeah, but I like living with you.

Well, maybe we can do it again sometime.
