Grace Catherine Mitchell was a beautiful, intelligent and gifted young

woman in the prime of her life.

To have that life taken so suddenly by another in such a brutal, violent and

senseless way makes her loss that much harder for us all to bear.

But I ask you not to fill your hearts and minds with malice,

bitterness, or thoughts of revenge, but rather rejoice in the gift we

all shared of knowing her, loving her, and sharing in the life of

a very special person.

Oh, yes, Chris.

How nice to meet you.

Gracie talked a lot about you.

She said you made her very happy.

She was a wonderful person.

I cared about her a great deal.

Thank you for coming.

I wasn't looking.

Lady, what are you doing, you idiot?

I didn't mean to. What are you driving so fast for? Some of my folks just

out. Well, you're the one that hit her. You hit her. Come on, Chris.

Let him go. Just calm down.

Thanks for coming, guys.

No sweat.

Look, Chris, we're all thinking of you. If there's anything we can do to help...

I don't want to talk about it.

Hey, look, I know what it's like. You know, I went through all the journey.

Well, still going through it, really.

I said I don't want to talk about it.

The Bismarck Copper Mine in Papua New Guinea is owned by the Australian

entrepreneur Christopher Alan Mason.

Now, a few weeks ago, Mason used mercenaries to break a strike.

Now, most significantly for me, he armed his mercenaries with weapons from the

same shipment of stolen army rifles that I've been investigating for the last

weeks now.

Now, he fled PNG. I heard he'd done a case and buggered off to Spain.

My sources inform me that he's attempting to enter Australia early

sea. He's travelling on a cruiser called Blue Mariner.

He won't risk berthing at any major port.

I'll notify the Attorney -General.

We'll have a judge standing by for extradition proceedings.

Hang on, I can see something.

It's like a cruiser.

This is the Blue Mariner.

Well done. Position?

Yep. Bearing 20 miles north -east of Batonhead, heading to west.

Nearest Dr. Wellington Bay.

Ah, far too busy.

Any other place deep enough for a cruiser is Apostle Bay.

Nice, quiet little backwater.

I'll arrange a welcoming committee for Mr. Mason.

Keep me posted.

Will do, Charlie Tango Delta.

Ribbit.

I've got a fix on Mason.

I'll meet six of your people.

G'day.

Where is Chris?

I don't know when he's going to be back.

Heading north?

I'm not taking passengers.

Oh, come on, you've got heaps of room.

I don't take up much space, honest.

Sorry.

This is the most up -to -date one we've got to make.

He may have changed his appearance, grown a beard, be hiding behind an

mask in a wheelchair.

Never fails.

We're talking a large boat here, 70 -odd foot.

I want the jetty every angle covered.

Mason's alluded to rest so far and he'll do whatever he can to keep it that way.

He's got nothing to lose now.

Echo Whiskey, Victor, this is Charlie Tango Delta.

Echo Whiskey, go ahead, Blake.

The Blue Mariners enter the Apostle Bay. They shall be berthing in next half an

hour. Copy that, Echo Whiskey.

Yeah, we're nearly there. We'll make it.

He's been a mistake.

Since when? Since now.

a lot, I really appreciate it.

Triking's dangerous.

That's why I'm real careful about who I get a lift with.

Yeah, I noticed.

I could have handled him.

You're going to be really glad you've got me along. I can sing, I can tell

stories. I can tell you to pull over every two hours so you don't get road

Way better than the car radio.

I'll even put in perpetual.

Really? Well, no, on account of I don't have any money. But if I had money, I'd

put in.

Lease them. You're the name.

Chris. No way.

We have reason to believe you have a suspicion of by the name of Christopher

Alan Mason aboard this boat. We have a warrant for his arrest. So we are.

Move, move, move.

Watch him.

By Christopher Alan Mason, you are under arrest.

Now, I'm about to ask you some questions, but before I ask you those

I wish to caution you.

You don't have to do or say anything in relation to the questions I ask you, but

if you do, that will be held in evidence against you.

What happened to Mason now? All extradition proceedings begin as soon as

possible. I reckon he'll be back in New Guinea by the end of the week. Good. I

can't believe he thought he could break a strike by shooting the workers.

Have you heard from Chris today?

No. Do you think one of us should go around and see if he's okay or

I think the message he's sending out loud and clear is to stay away.

Yeah.

Sir, would you like a coffee or something? No, no, thanks.

Um... Is there a problem?

Uh, sort of.

It sounds stupid, though.

Well, I promise I won't laugh.

Uh...

What the hell is taking so long? Oh, Mason's not going to show.

What? His lawyers are asking for an indefinite delay on medical grounds.

Collect final decision.

He's incapable of closing court, let alone travelling anywhere.

I saw him walk off the boat when he was arrested. He climbed on and off that

plane without assistance.

Well, obviously a little scheme he's cooked up with his lawyers in the

And, of course, there's no end of expert medical opinion lining up to claim that

it's all true.

Being handsomely paid, no doubt. Where is the bastard now? Some exclusive

private hospital up the coast of Macquarie Head, run by some eminent

doctor, who, by the way, is an expert on back injuries.

He's here to give evidence. Probably going to sway a blind that makes him...

kind of in Wiggly's little toe.

Mason is faking. I'm going to get you a plane. You fly up to that clinic in

Macquarie Head.

So, what is wrong with Paul, Mr.

Mason? Now, let me guess.

Emphysema, right?

I can't believe the court fell for it. What is wrong with this country that we

let guys like that get away with it?

There's nothing wrong. It's not that simple.

Of course it is.

He's faking it. Everybody knows it. Why can't we just go in and lock him up?

Because his sort of money buys time.

It buys medical opinions. It buys fancy legal arguments. Yeah, so what you were

saying is that money buys justice and the law, yeah? Is that it?

It complicates it. Yeah, and in the meantime, he waltzes out with a Ming

vase and a Picasso under his arm. I'm not letting him get away with anything.

I want to see him behind bars as much as you do. That's why I'm trying to do

something about it. So hurry up and get us to Macquarie Head so I can.

Yes, sir.

Aren't you a little young to be running away?

Aren't you a little old?

Who says I'm running away?

You haven't told me where you're going or asked me where I'm headed.

All right, Lisa with an E, where are you headed?

Byron. I'm going to live with my cousin.

Let me guess.

You had a fight with your parents or you left home?

That and I never got on. He drinks.

He married this woman a couple of months ago. She's a cow.

So I got out of there.

I've got it all planned.

No doll for me.

I make these.

See?

Very nice.

Just like Angel's voice.

I never heard Angel.

That's because you weren't listening.

I can't wait. My cousin's going to be so stoked.

We used to get on so well when we were kids.

So she doesn't know you're even coming?

Oh, it'll be cool. Family, you know.

She's a Pisces. Pisces love surprises.

You do know where she lives, though? Yeah, Byron.

How about you? Where are you headed?

Only a business.

Here we are at the lovely Macquarie Heads Hospital for fugitive criminals.

Ah, this is where Mason's holding her.

Pretty ritzy.

I'm going to go and talk to the staff.

Richmond's on surveillance in this Palliative Care Unit. She knows to

you.

How long do you think we're going to be here? As long as it takes for Mason to

give up the act and get off his bed.

Detective Sergeant Richmond, I presume.

Oh, Timber, hi.

How's it going?

Oh, it's not.

Mason hasn't budged from his bed all morning.

His mind is due to everything for him. I don't know. I'm beginning to think this

might be a genuine injury.

Look what he's got to lose. I think he could put on a pretty convincing

performance.

Take a look. See for yourself.

He's good.

I don't know how long he can keep it up for, though.

This is so crazy. Chris is away. Jimbo is away.

I've got enough work here to last me all night.

Oh, Jay.

What?

Um, we're still off for tonight, aren't we? Blake, I haven't forgotten.

Oh, remind me, I have this book at home that shows all these different

positions.

What about music? I mean, it's best to do it with something, isn't it? Blake,

relax. I will find you something, I promise.

He must be ready to take a break.

If he doesn't make a move soon, I'm going to go blind.

Why don't you go outside and get some fresh air?

And get some supplies while you're out there.

What do you want?

Oh, whatever.

I'll have some sushi and some sashimi with some wasabi on the side. Maybe a

drink. I don't know.

Sake would be good.

Hang on.

We've got some action.

Well, look at this.

Very sudden recovery for the patient in room 219.

Oh, that's a miracle.

Oh, yeah.

Come on, Mason, keep it up.

Beautiful.

Just beautiful.

Gotcha. You're doing everything short of a cartwheel and a backflip.

Oh, let's see. His lawyer's trying to get out of this one.

Well, we'll book that ticket to Port Moresby now.

Damn. They've seen us. They can't have. I put reflective tinting on the window.

Well, it didn't work.

They're on to us.

Get this to life as fast as you can. What, you're not coming with me?

I'm going to stay here and keep an eye on Mason.

He follows every move.

Now that tape must get to court. Okay, don't worry, it will.

already. No, it's another couple hundred k's.

This is as far as I'm going.

You're going to stay here?

I'm going to camp on the beach overnight.

Cool. I love camping.

Lisa.

Please.

Lisa, I came away because I wanted to be by myself.

But we were having such a good time together.

Yeah, we were.

Thanks.

It was nice knowing you.

Yeah.

See you at the next bus.

Thanks, Preet.

And I hope that whatever's up, you find some way to fix it.

There. Look, I held onto the tape really tight. I didn't mean to let go, but the

guy had a gun, so I was either me or the tape.

Jimbo.

It's all right.

I could go back, but Mason's onto us, so I really don't know if there's much

point.

We've still got plenty of evidence that he's fake.

We do?

Testimony of three icons.

Yourself, Richmond and Rivers. That's more than enough.

Yeah, yeah, okay, okay.

I assume you'll be willing to appear in court to try what you saw in May's

trial.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, no problem. Yeah, I can appear in court.

He's been spotted. He'll try and get out of the country as soon as he can.

Get down there and see if you can find out where they're going.

Where's your car?

It's on the side street.

The red one.

Meet me there.

Mason in an ambulance.

Rego number UHD 375.

We're following on, what's the name of this road? Lawson Drive.

Lawson Drive, about 20km south of Macquarie Head. Heading in the same

Copy that, Alpha 7.

Where the hell are they going? It could be anywhere. I think this road pretty

much runs right down the coast quickly.

Better not go too far.

We won't have enough petrol.

I thought we'd get some food first.

That's a great Chinese place that we can... Oh, you know, if that's all right

with you. Yeah, sure.

I love you.

Are you sure it's going to be all right with Jimbo? It's just... I mean, I'll

prefer he didn't know.

Do it in my room.

We're not going to make that much noise anyway, are we?

There's nothing going on. Yeah, right.

How's the beach?

What are you still doing here?

There's no buses till tomorrow.

Well, you can't stay there all night.

Well, I've got no money. What else can I do?

Look, Lisa, my tent only has enough room for one person. Well, it's all right.

I love sleeping under the stars. Anyway, I've got my own blanket.

All right.

I've just got to get some matches. I've got matches.

What do you have to do with ask?

floor it.

Both dead.

All right.

Now for the pot.

Do you want a hand?

No, I can manage.

I'm really good with tents.

Lisa!

I'm sorry. Just look. Just stay away.

All right.

All right.

It's burning.

Stupid girl. All right, I've got it. Oh, that's great, isn't it? Your bird's a

dinner. We're going to tent it and stay up.

Don't hit me, please. Don't hit me.

What?

I'm not going to hit you.

Why would you think I'd hit you?

I've never hit a woman, ever.

I wouldn't do that.

That'll wait, though.

Some bad news.

Richmond and Rivers were killed in a car crash in pursuit of Mason.

It wasn't an accident.

You are now the only remaining witness who can testify that Mason is in good

health.

I've arranged for protection of you and...

The police have got this place under surveillance, so in the unlikely event

anyone should track you to this address, there's no chance they'd get anywhere

near you.

Well, that's nice to know.

I'll be back at seven in the morning to pick you up to take you to court.

Sleep well.

Sleep well.

And now what happened?

We just sit tight.

Like I said, there's nothing to worry about. There's police surrounding the

place. There's absolutely no reason for either of us to be worried, okay?

So what did this guy do anyway? Okay, just sit down.

Must have been something pretty serious.

Was he killing someone?

No, he just, um... He just got out of bed.

That's it. That's all he did.

And you can put him away for life for doing that.

Yep.

I just had to pick up a simple package.

I don't know why it got so complicated.

You sure we're going to be safe here?

Yeah, absolutely.

You know, they wouldn't even know where to look for us. We'll be fine.

Get yourself a drink, if you like.

Can you hold me right there?

I just want to take turns this time.

I think my hands are sweaty.

It's okay, just relax.

You ready?

Sorry.

Sorry.

I should never have asked you to dance.

He's tried once. No, look, I'm sorry, Shay. Let's just get the whole thing.

what about your cousin's wedding?

Where's your plane now, eh, Mr James?

Not Jimbo. We don't know.

What about Chinese?

In a video, there's nothing on TV.

Look, we can't order anything, okay? No one's supposed to know we're here.

Remember? Well, maybe we could just not tell them our name.

and tell them to leave it outside?

Max!

What about the cops?

You could tell them to order us something.

Then they wouldn't be outside guarding us, would they?

Which is where I want them to be.

It's so boring.

There's nothing to do.

Max, sometimes we have to make certain sacrifices to ensure that justice is

done. We are here for the greater good. It is an honour.

Not many people get to do that in their lives. Not many people have to stay in a

motel room with nothing to do all night.

Out of the big bed.

And into the little bed.

Big bed.

Big God Jimbo, help!

What are you going to do? Get your up and I'll take you out of the car.

Listen, you... It blows your brain out.

Did you fix it? Yep.

What if you don't know her?

I'm not Jimbo.

I told you.

Shut up.

We'll just say that we were passing by and we thought we'd drop in. We're

cursing on other people and you realise that's what we do.

Okay.

Hello?

Anyone home?

I've never left my job.

Hello? It's me and Paula. Where are you?

Hello?

Let's go, guys. Let's go.

Are you alright?

I'm a lazy man now, looking for Jim, but I've taken a break.

I'm going to call my friend.

There's nothing they said that might indicate where they were going. A time,

name, a word, anything.

No.

Nothing.

Mason dealt with the other eyewitnesses by making it look like an accident.

Car crash.

Gas was shown.

Oh, God.

They're going to make him crash a plane.

No, they won't. They've got to be in the plane to make it take off and they're

not going to kill themselves.

He doesn't have to take off.

There's no way out. One move and the whole place goes up and all of you with

Come on, mate. You don't want to do that.

Just put the lighter away.

Get to the car. We can take him with us.

Come on, you move.

Don't do anything stupid.

We'll just make it worse for yourselves.

They won't shoot with him in sight.

Don't move!

Stay where you are!

I said don't move!

Don't you know I'm not a liar? Come on! You don't want to harm me.

I tell you, one shot and the whole place goes up! Don't think about it.

Be sensible.

Don't you try anything, I'll drop the lighter.

Be reasonable.

Give it up, gentlemen.

This won't save Mason. You've got the wrong man!

... ...

...

... ... ...

All right, I'll get out of your hair. I'm going.

Don't you want any breakfast?

It's my way of saying sorry.

All right, then I'll have bacon, two eggs on your side up, and a coffee.

Ready to go?

The truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.

Yeah, you bet.

Are we going to be okay outside that courtroom?

We've got this far.

So angry.

With the guy that killed Gray?

Not just with him.

With everyone.

Everything.

For thinking I was happy when I wasn't.

Being in a place...

But things like that can happen.

She told me something about herself.

Something I found quite shocking.

If I hadn't taken so long to forgive her, if I'd just got over myself a bit

sooner, I never would have been too late.

But I was.

I'm sorry for taking it out on you.

If it happened to me, I would have done the same thing.

Yeah.

Do me a favour, will you? Ring your cousin, let her know you're coming.

You know, it's like you hook up with somebody you haven't seen for ages.

Extradition proceedings shouldn't take more than a few days.

Mason should be facing court in Papua New Guinea by the end of the week.

Thank you both.

Thank you for great courage.

You should both be proud of yourselves.

She's just had a baby and she needs a hand.

I love babies.

Still got your bus money?

Oh, what? I thought you'd ditch the grumpy act.

Yeah, I have.

I'm just not hitting it away.

Figured out where you're going, have you?

Well, it turns out I really wasn't going anywhere.

But now you are.

Yeah, I think so.

For you.

Angel's voice, as you reckon?

I thought there might be one you'd like to listen out for.

Thanks.

Wish I had a dad like you.

Thanks.

See you later.
