Yeah, I'm Tegan.

But is Drew not working out
with you?

No, he's locked into a contract.

(INTRIGUING MUSIC)

MARILYN: Since you've
demonstrated zero remorse,

I'm suspending you,

pending a meeting
with the board,

where expulsion
will be discussed.

Expulsion? How is that fair?

(PHONE BUZZES)

Well, then how about you
put your number in as Susie?

And I can put mine in as Judy.

- Hi, Susie.
- Hi, Judy.

(KNOCK AT DOOR)

Jaz, did you know
that girls are being paid

to keep quiet about the spiking
at Rowan's club?

I want to make a report.

VINCENT: You can't keep doing
this fucking book.

You were broken into!

Yes, which means that I'm close.

Hey, um,

Gretel's got a massive
crush on him. The ex.

(CAMERAS CLICK)

NINA: Edward John Dallimore

was in the country
for a family visit.

He arrived March 28
and he left April 7,

which was...

COLBY: The day
after Amanda's murder.

XAVIER: Yeah, well...

Nah, I just got home, actually.

- (XAVIER DROPS SHOE)
- How come?

(DROPS SHOE)
Met a nice girl at the pub.

Right.

What are you doing?

COLBY: Um...

Something similar.

- Yep.
- Nice.

Didn't know you
were seeing somebody.

No, no, it's... (SIGHS)

It's more what you might call
a booty call.

(XAVIER SCOFFS) Oh!

I... I wouldn't say
booty call, Dad.

COLBY: No, no, no, it isn't a...
It... it...

She makes the call.
I take the call.

- I'm... I'm the booty.
- Don't...

You're... Oh, God. OK.

Nice.

(COLBY EXHALES)

COLBY: Hmm. Cup of tea?

XAVIER: Yes, please.

COLBY: Right.

(TEA POURS)

So are you gonna invite
your friend over?

Be nice to meet her.

No!

No, no, no, no, it's not...

It's not like that. It's a...
You know, it's a small town.

I have to be discreet. Yeah.

(COLBY EXHALES)

Dad.

You know I'm not here
just for a holiday, hey?

I'm here so we can
get to know each other.

Isn't that what we're doing?

Why haven't I met
any of your friends?

I mean, I've met Beth and Nina.

They're just
people you work with.

(SCOFFS) I don't know
what you want me to do.

I mean, if you want to come

to Josie's birthday party
this evening, come.

But I honestly didn't think
you'd be interested.

Of course I'm interested, Dad.

That's what... (SIGHS)

(SIGHS) I just feel like
you're holding something back.

Xavier, I don't know
what your expectations are.

I mean, this is me.
This is who I am.

There's nothing else to it.

You're not missing out
on anything.

Look, Xavier,

I don't know
how to explain this to you,

but God knows I see it every day
in the courts.

A hole left by an absent father.

No matter what I do,
no matter what I give you now,

it will never be enough.

You just can't fix it like that.

(PHONE RINGS AND BUZZES)

Get it.

It's gotta be a better
conversation than this one.

(CHAIR SCRAPES)

(PHONE RINGS AND BUZZES)

(PHONE BEEPS)

Nina.

OK, so Edward John Dallimore -

he still goes by
the name of John,

philosophy professor
at Oxford University.

Semi-retired.

Lives in London now.

A very distinguished career,
yada yada.

Been in the UK since 1969,
and no priors.

Exemplar of law-abiding
citizenry. (CHUCKLES)

Yeah, not very promising.

But I called and left a message
for him to contact us urgently.

Well, let's give him a day.

Well, if he killed her,

he's hardly gonna call me back,
is he?

Yeah, that Oxford professor
thing's interesting, isn't it?

Could be
some implied arrogance there.

He may think... (CHUCKLES)

..that he's smarter than us.

Well, I can get our
private investigator onto it.

See if he can send out a British
colleague to his house and...

No, let's not
startle the horses just yet.

In the meantime, let's get our
guy to check on his movements

when he was in Australia.

You know...

Find out if he was in Cape Rock?

Yeah, where he was living.
Did he hire a car?

We need just a little bit more
on him

before he finally calls us.

NINA: OK.

(BIRDS SCREECH)

(COUGHS)

JAZMYN: Do you wanna hear
something crazy?

CAMILLA: Mm?

(LAUGHS) This is in the cone.

CAMILLA: Yeah, of course.

Um...

Gretel tried to have
a threesome with Ro and I.

- Oh, my God.
- (JAZMYN LAUGHS)

I know. It's so embarrassing.

It's beyond inappropriate.

What did Rowan think?

- Oh, he was not into it. At all.
- Fair.

Wait, she act...
she actually asked that?

She got into bed with us.

- No!
- Yes.

OK, stop, because
I don't want to... gossip.

No, no, it's cool. I'm not...

- I'm not gonna say anything.
- I know.

But, oh, my God,
that is intense.

JAZMYN: I know!

It's beyond inappropriate.
(SCOFFS)

BARISTA: Camilla!

(ZIPPER UNZIPS)

(LAUGHS) I'm in shock.

Also, she wrote this
in the middle of court.

CAMILLA: What? Whose ex?

Amanda's ex. Vincent.

She wrote that about a witness?

JAZMYN: Yes.

Jesus.

I would feel sorry for her,

except that I have to sit
next to her for two weeks.

It's torture.

Feels loopy.

JAZMYN: Yep.

I'm just grateful I've got you.

You are...

You are the only good thing
about this trial.

SALMA ON VIDEO:
My dad is an amazing teacher,

but he was fired
for being a Muslim.

- CROWD: Boo!
- HANIFA: Oh, my gosh.

This woman is the principal

of St Gina's Ladies College.

She sacked my dad

after he was bullied by
Christian students

who called Muslims terrorists.

And then
when my friends protested,

she suspended the white students
but expelled me.

- MALE VOICE: What?!
- (LETTERS THUD ON VIDEO)

(CELL DOOR RATTLES AND CLANGS

But he was fired
for being a Muslim.

BASSAM: When did she do this?
I had no idea.

(JURORS CHATTER SOFTLY)

So it's been up
since last night.

Oh, my God, I cannot believe
how irresponsible she is.

I can kiss my references
goodbye.

I mean, what the hell
is she thinking?!

How many views has it had?

OK, not many,
just a few thousand.

- 53,000! Shit.
- Bassam.

HANIFA: It's OK.

It's just kids on the app,
anyway,

so no-one's going to see it.

(DAVID LAUGHS

(DAVID LAUGHS)

You better get a good lawyer,
my friend.

Maybe ask Mr Colby when he's
finished with this case, eh?

SHAWN: What's up? What's up?

Hey!

You're welcome.

ANDREW: What?

I figured you'd be looking
for it, your bag.

You know, I met your missus.

(ANDREW EXHALES)

- BLAKE: Yeah. (LAUGHS)
- ANDREW: Right.

BLAKE: What?

Um, and you mentioned
that... that I...

..that I haven't been
training with you, right?

- Yeah.
- Yeah. (SIGHS)

- Yeah. What?
- N-nothing.

You... you didn't do anything.
Th-thank you, Blake.

(GROANS)

(SARCASTICALLY)
"Thank you, Blake."

COLBY: Please state
your name and occupation

for the court.

WITNESS: Cid Smith.

I'm a permanent prison officer

at Wade Correctional Centre

and I've been doing that
22 years.

COLBY: Officer Smith,
on a day-to-day basis,

are you in charge of a prisoner
called Peter Wayne Flood?

He's a lifer. Yep, like me.

COLBY: Are you aware he is
one of the prime suspects

for the 1968 murders
in Cape Rock?

A few police have come

to speak to Flood about that
over the years,

so, yes, I'm aware.

COLBY:
What sort of man is Mr Flood?

CID: He can be
a pretty charming bloke.

Manipulative.

He's, uh, very good at
getting the younger prisoners

to do him favours.

But he gets violent

if he doesn't get his own way.

Now, Officer Smith,
were you present

on December 11, 2022,

when Amanda Taylor visited
Peter Wayne Flood in prison?

CID: I was escorting Flood
that day, yeah.

Stand back.

(KEYS CLINK)

(DOOR BUZZES)

(DOOR OPENS)

(KEYS CLINK)

COLBY: And is it true that
there was an inquiry afterwards

as to how Amanda Taylor
got in there at all?

Yep, 'cause she'd
misrepresented herself.

COLBY: To the prison?

CID: To the prison
and to the prisoner, yeah.

How did Mr Flood react to this?

My sentence is up
in four months.

If you can help me find a place
and a job or whatever,

it'll help me get
my release sanctioned.

Peter, I'm not actually here
to talk to you about that.

I'm Warren Little's daughter.

Uh, I'm researching a book
about the Cape Rock murders,

and I want you to help me
by giving me some of your DNA

so I can eliminate you
as a suspect.

Are you fucking kidding me?

No. I don't...

Who the fuck
do you think you are?

Well, I'm saying
that I-I want to prove

that they made a... a mistake.

PETER: This is a mistake.

You lied to get this visit.

And I needed that shit
you were offering me.

Peter...

You write my fuckin' name,

you put me
in that book of yours,

and I will take that pen

and I'll stick it in your
fuckin' eyeball, you bitch!

(SPITS)

CID: Fair to say,
Flood was not happy.

Not happy? Did he threaten her?

Yes, he did.

Now, are you familiar with

a former jail-mate of Flood's,
Troy Pickard?

Troy Pickard was charged
with a break and enter

at, uh, Ms Taylor's
Perth residence in 2023.

Yeah, Pickard's
what we call a boomerang.

COLBY: A boomerang.
Can you explain that term?

CID: He gets out of detention

and before you can
forget about him...

(WHISTLES) ..he's back.

Were Flood and Pickard
friends in jail?

CID: Uh, you wouldn't
call them friends.

Flood does run the prisoners,
so he knows all of them.

Uh, he's got nicknames
for them, actually.

What was his nickname
for Pickard?

'Ferret'.

COLBY: Ferret. Very good.

Now, Officer Smith,
is it conceivable that,

enraged by
Amanda Taylor's visit,

Flood might have arranged
to have his 'Ferret'

conduct a break and enter
into Ms Taylor's premises

on February 14, 2023,

in an effort to steal her work?

Objection, Your Honour, opinion.

Nice try, Mr Colby.
I won't allow it.

Thank you, Your Honour.
No more questions.

BLAKE: What would
she know anyway?

I mean, she's a female
prison guard in a men's prison.

What does that mean?

BLAKE: Well, no inmates are
gonna speak to her in there.

How does she have any authority?

SHARON:
Just because she's a woman?

HANIFA: She's got years
of experience.

BLAKE: Oh, no.
I can't say anything, can I?

SHAWN: I don't know, man.

I reckon that chick
could probably take on Godzilla.

Hey, settle. Women like that
are doing a necessary service.

- (PHONE BUZZES)
- REG: It's like in the mines.

An all-male environment
is frickin' toxic.

You would say that.

I would say that, would I?

- BLAKE: Yeah.
- Why?

- Well...
- SHARON: Alright, alright.

- Let's not get personal.
- Are you serious?

If we talk about anything,

it should be about
her testimony.

Yes, exactly, thank you.

Like, does anyone want to
talk about whether or not

we think this man Flood
could have got his Ferret

to do the deed?

You know what,
I don't wanna talk about it.

- I'm going out for a fag.
- Fag? What?

H-how come she can say 'fag'?

If I said 'fag',
I'd get cancelled.

- Shut up.
- Nobodies don't get cancelled.

- JAZMYN: Oh-ho-ho!
- (JURORS LAUGH)

GRETEL: Oh, that's cold.

SHAWN:
What's more interesting to me

is how Amanda Taylor
is an A-grade liar.

(DOOR CLOSES)

She did go about things

in an interesting way.

SHARON: English teacher.

She was obviously desperate
to be a published author.

Mm. Some people will do
anything for attention.

Lie, make up stories.

(GRETEL SCOFFS)

(JAZMYN WHISPERS) I was kidding.

(DOOR OPENS)

- BLAKE: What? What did I miss?
- (DOOR SLAMS)

Honestly, Marilyn,
I... I knew nothing about this

until I got to court
this morning, OK?

Not only is this video

offensive, it is highly damaging

to the school
and to me personally.

It needs to be taken offline
immediately.

BASSAM: I've tried. I've tried.

And I've... I've been trying
to call her.

She's not answering my calls.

But I promise you,
everything is under control.

I'm doing everything
that I can, OK?

The situation

You need to be home when
I get home. Do you understand?!

- (EXHALES)
- REG: Hey, Bassam.

BASSAM: Yeah, I'll be there.

- NICHOLLS: Ms Smith...
- (PEN CLICKS REPEATEDLY)

..are all calls and visits
to the prison recorded?

Yeah, they are.

When Amanda Taylor visited
Mr Flood on... on December 11,

Troy Pickard,
he was not in detention.

Is that correct?

I can't be sure.

NICHOLLS: He was not.

From Amanda Taylor's visit
to Mr Flood on December 11

to her death on April 6,

prison records indicate

that there were
no visits or calls

between Mr Flood and Mr Pickard.

Based on that,
they couldn't have colluded

to arrange a break-in at
Ms Taylor's house, could they?

Based on that, no.

Thank you, Ms Smith.

No further questions,
Your Honour.

Officer Smith, is it common,
indeed common knowledge,

that many prisoners
often hold illegal burner phones

in order to contact
those outside

without prison knowledge?

CID: Oh, yeah.

Last raid, we found,
I think, 17 phones

in places you wouldn't even
want to mention.

COLBY: Officer Smith,
did you work in the prison

with a psychiatrist by the name
of Dr Renata Monaro?

- (PAPER RUSTLES)
- (INTRIGUING MUSIC)

She's a good friend
and colleague, yes.

COLBY: Ms Smith,

why did Dr Monaro
leave the prison?

Because she was in fear of her
life from Flood, on the outside.

Objection!

Your Honour, Mr Colby chose

not to put Dr Monaro
in the witness box

because the State could prove
that she was mentally unstable.

She was not mentally unstable.

You can't now use this witness

to introduce
the doctor's testimony.

She was being threatened.

Your Honour, can Mr Colby
please control his witness?

You are not to speak when I'm
speaking to Counsel, Ms Smith.

These guys,
just because they're locked up,

doesn't mean
they can't murder someone.

Your Honour!

JUDGE WEST:
That's enough, Ms Smith.

NICHOLLS:
Thank you, Your Honour.

'Cause Hanifa and I,
we've got this thing going.

Yeah, OK, Blake,
I'm not having a fling,

but clearly
my partner thinks I am.

That's... that's what
I've been trying to do all day.

Well, just... mate,

have you tried
honest communication?

You know what... you know what,
Blake? I... I don't...

I don't mean to be rude.

I don't... I don't want to
discuss this with you.

- OK?
- (SIGHS)

Thank you. Thank you
for dropping off my wallet.

I appreciate it.

I didn't mean to be an arsehole

OK, she's ignoring my texts.

She's just playing

It's horrible, isn't it?
Being on the jury.

Oh, yes.
It's certainly an eye-opener.

Yeah.

Hey, I just wanted
to say before, um,

I thought you were totally
in the right with Blake.

He's a dickhead.

Yeah.

I've been feeling
the weird vibes too.

Um, I actually started thinking

that people were talking
about me behind my back.

Yeah, I'm gonna stay
out of that.

on the John Dallimore lead,

but so far
he hasn't called back...

ALAN: No, forget about
this Dallimore guy.

You're wasting...
you're wasting your time.

- This is the guy...
- (PHONE CHIMES)

..this Peter Wayne Flood.

Look, he's the best alternative
suspect that we have.

But I think we're really
onto something with Dallimore.

You've got to convince them.

Make them listen.
Haven't... haven't you noticed?

They're all over the shop!

- Who's all over the shop?
- The jury!

They're fidgeting, dozing,
picking their bloody noses.

You're telling them who did it

and those morons
aren't taking it in.

Alan, we always have to remember

what the jury
may be going through,

at home, personally.

They all have lives,
they have families.

(SHOUTS) I've got a fucking life
and family!

COLBY: It is very important

that you keep control
of your emotions.

The day is not done.

Now, the next witness
is hostile.

He will be lying
through his teeth

and it's important that
those 'morons' see through that,

if we are to have any hope.

COLBY: Mr Pickard,
what is your profession?

I'm a handyman.

COLBY: Is that a full-time job?

TROY: Nah, it's, uh...
it's pretty casual.

COLBY: Were you convicted of
breaking and entering

Amanda Taylor's house in Perth
on February 14, 2023?

TROY: Yeah,
that's on the record,

but, um,
it wasn't just her place.

Yes, some handymen are handier
than others, aren't they?

(PEOPLE CHUCKLE)

COLBY: Were you looking
for anything in particular

- at Ms Taylor's house?
- BETH: Excuse me.

TROY: Same as anywhere, mate.

Laptops, cash,
stereos, whatever.

COLBY: Were you also looking for

a manuscript and notes
for a book that she was writing?

TROY: No.

Did you choose
Ms Taylor's house for a reason?

TROY: Nope! It was random.

(UNEASY MUSIC)

(MENACING MUSIC)

COLBY: Now, Mr Pickard,

are you friends with
your fellow prison inmate,

Peter Wayne Flood?

Never had much
to do with him, mate.

COLBY: I must remind you
that you are under oath.

Did he have a nickname for you?

Not that I'm aware of.

His nickname for you was Ferret.

Now, did Mr Flood ask you

to burgle Ms Taylor's house
as a favour?

(AMANDA AND VINCENT LAUGH)

Amanda.

Oh, no.

(TROY SPEAKS FIRMLY) No.

COLBY: Were you in Cape Rock

on April the 6th of 2023?

No, sir.

COLBY: Really?

You're familiar with a person

with the name of Brianna Burke?

She's my ex.

Who currently resides
in Cape Rock, does she not?

I said she's an ex, mate.

I don't know
where she lives anymore.

COLBY:
She gave us an affidavit

stating that you visited her

on Easter Sunday that year.

Do you know what day

Amanda Taylor was murdered,
Mr Pickard?

Not sure.

COLBY: Her body was discovered
on Good Friday.

Now, in case you're not
familiar with how Easter works,

Good Friday comes
two days before Easter Sunday.

Is that a question?

COLBY: Now, since you failed
to find Ms Taylor's laptop

during your break-in
on February 14,

did Peter Wayne Flood arrange
for you, his little Ferret,

to break into her premises again
two months later?

No.

COLBY:
Did you follow her to Cape Rock?

Did you break into
her accommodation,

and when she caught you
in the act,

did you murder her?

No, I fuckin' didn't!

Objection, Your Honour!

My friend is putting the witness
on trial.

TROY: The fuck are you on about?

I didn't murder anyone,
Your Honour.

WEST: Watch your language,
Mr Pickard.

(WHISPERS) Fuck you.

No more questions, Your Honour.

(COLBY SIGHS)

you can turn your attention

to, uh, exhibit 38

On February 14,

you burgled seven houses
in Ms Taylor's street in Perth.

Why did you choose
Valentine's Day

to do these break and enters?

Houses are empty, you know?

People are out
for dinner and shit.

NICHOLLS: And why did you choose
this street?

Don't know. Just random.

NICHOLLS: Can you tell us
why you chose these houses,

all in the same street?

TROY: Come on, mate,
figure it out. You went to uni.

So those houses, they all
back onto a national park,

which means no dogs, no cameras,

and the rich pricks
who live there

don't like bars
on their windows, so...

(TROY TUTS)
Thank you, Mr Pickard,

and indeed, you're right,
I did go to university.

Mr Pickard,
would it surprise you to know

that the streets
backing onto this park,

including Amanda Taylor's,

are burgled 15% more often

than any other area
in metropolitan Perth?

TROY: Not really.

NICHOLLS: So it was, in fact,

as you stated earlier,

entirely random that you
burgled Amanda Taylor's house

on that day, wasn't it?

- Yeah. I already said so.
- NICHOLLS: You did indeed.

Thank you, Mr Pickard.

No further questions,
Your Honour.

GRETEL: OK, you know what?

- BASSAM: Wish me luck. 'Bye.
- Good luck. 'Bye.

JAZMYN: Aww, leave the Ferret
alone, poor little guy.

DENISE: I don't understand

why they didn't interview him
about the murder.

The break-in
can't be a coincidence.

SHAWN:
They already had their suspect.

BLAKE: Hey, you in a hurry?

I mean, are you free
for a drink?

Oh, uh... I have to get home, OK?
But thank you anyway.

(BLAKE SIGHS)

- (JURORS CHATTER)
- (BLAKE CLICKS TONGUE)

- Dude...
- BLAKE: What?

Read the room.

You know, I've never
really been good at that.

That's why I work alone,
one on one.

Well, she's not into you, man.

She smiles at me every day.

Oh, she smiles at everyone.

Uh, you know, you could be
a little neuro-spicy.

Anyone ever told you that?

Neuro-what?

I mean, neurodiverse.
Look it up.

(JURORS CHATTER)

BLAKE: Hmm!

Oh, I've been trying
to convince Lloyd

to get a dog for the kids,

but now we're definitely
getting one

so we don't get robbed.

JAZMYN: How hectic was that map?

CAMILLA:
It was crazy, wasn't it?

- (JAZMYN LAUGHS)
- Hey! Can we walk out?

I... I want to talk to you
for a bit.

Yeah, what's wrong?

I was actually hoping
you could tell me.

I've kind of been feeling like
you're, um, avoiding me.

- Uh, I...
- Babe, I'm here.

- SHARON: Jazmyn.
- GRETEL: I know that.

Jazmyn, could you stay behind

for a few minutes?

I'd like to have a quick chat.

Sorry.

See ya.

(CAMILLA WHISPERS) Text me.

(JAZMYN WHISPERS) I will.

I think you should go home.

Oh, well, I'm just waiting
for Jaz to finish.

(CAMILLA SCOFFS)

(SIGHS) Look, I don't know
whether you know this,

but you're making Jaz
feel really uncomfortable.

- What?
- CAMILLA: Yeah.

Just go home. OK?

(TENSE MUSIC)

COLBY: Alan.

- You asked to see me.
- ALAN: Oh!

I wanted to apologise
for losing my rag,

but it's... it's
Josie's birthday.

That's two in a row
I would've missed.

No, I understand.

And like... like,
Beth walking out

and not coming back in just now,

I mean, I feel really cut off
from my family.

COLBY: Alan! You need to
keep calm in front of the jury.

ALAN: Wait, wait. Uh,
can I ask a favour, Brett, hey?

- (SOLEMN MUSIC)
- (ALAN CONTINUES INDISTINCTLY)

GUARD: OK, let's move along.

(COLBY SCOFFS)

(DOOR CLOSES)

Oh, Josie, they said

they weren't going to deliver
the cake until four o'clock.

JOSIE: Well, now it's been
out in the sun,

the cream's gonna go off.

Well, no, I think
it'll be alright.

No, look,
the icing's a wee bit soft,

but it's gonna be fine.

- JOSIE: OK.
- It'll be fine.

- (TV PLAYS FAINTLY)
- BETH: Oh! This trial...

Boy, we're all over the shop,
huh?

But soon, you know,
it's gonna be over

and we'll... everything
will be back to normal.

JOSIE: Right,
when Dad comes back.

What's that?

JOSIE: When Dad comes back.

Yes. Yes.

(SOFTLY)
Yes, when Dad comes back.

Sure. OK.

Now... cake, yeah.

Whose dick are you sucking,
Colby?

(COLBY SCOFFS)

A lesser man could take offence
at that, Nicholls.

Come on, speaking to
the defendant in the hallways?

Taking liberties?

You just need to make
some friends, that's all.

Yeah, well, I'm not
a privileged white male

who can manipulate the system
with the old boys.

The old boys. Don't worry.

We'll all be dead soon.

(NICHOLLS SCOFFS) RIP!

(NICHOLLS LAUGHS)

SHARON: I understand she's been
bothering you in some way,

but I haven't noticed that
it's obsessive, as you put it.

JAZMYN: Well, that's because
you don't know the half of it.

- SHARON: OK. Then tell me.
- (PHONE BUZZES)

- (PHONE BUZZES)
- (SHARON SCOFFS)

(PHONE BUZZES REPEATEDLY)

Jazmyn.

I am aware that you have been
telling people

that Gretel
is mentally unstable,

and that she's been
inappropriate with you,

but you cannot spread rumours
like that

unless you can
substantiate them.

(GRABS PHONE)

- (PHONE BUZZES)
- (SCOFFS) It's Gretel.

That says Susie.

That's what she calls herself.

And she calls me Judy.
(PUTS PHONE DOWN)

- What?
- Yeah.

- SHARON: Ugh!
- I know.

I thought it was a bit off
as well, but...

..she just didn't want you to
know that we'd exchanged details

so... so I went along with it.

Yeah, I'm not sure what rumours
you've been hearing,

but it's so stupid.

SHARON: Just tell me.

Um, she wanted to have sex
with me and my boyfriend.

Oh.

And when we rejected her,

she started to make up

this lie that she'd been
spiked at his club.

And I know
that she presents like

she's this super-sweet girl.

And she is, or she can be.
I'm sure she is...

This is why I told everyone
not to socialise.

You need to set up
proper boundaries going forward.

- JAZMYN: I know.
- OK?

I'm trying to.

But none of this affects
the trial, though.

The thing I was
most concerned about

was your comment about Gretel

having a crush
on one of the witnesses.

If there was anything to that,

I would have to take it
very seriously.

(DISTURBING MUSIC)

OK, I didn't want to
have to show you this.

What?

JAZMYN: I'm really sorry.

(PUTS PHONE DOWN)

Has anyone else seen this?

Just Gretel.

Send it to me, but you keep
that strictly to yourself.

Mm. Definitely.

SHARON:
Let me figure out what to do.

OK, I'll send it to you now.

(NOTIFICATION BLEEPS)

Tegan!

Hey!

I've been trying to call you
all day.

I'm sorry, are you actually
having a go at me right now?

OK, you know what? No, I'm not.

- TEGAN: You lied to me.
- Yes, I did.

- About the training, right?
- No, no.

It doesn't matter what
you lied about. You lied to me.

Why... why... why didn't you
ask me about it?

Are you kidding me?

You lied to me.
We don't lie to each other.

And now I'm getting in trouble.
Are you a fuckin' teenager?

(SIGHS)

OK, OK. Yes.

I did lie to you.

TEGAN: Hm!

That woman
that I've been helping?

TEGAN: Mm?

I've... I've been driving her
to rehab every day.

What, so now you're
a fucking superhero

so you can lie
to your girlfriend?

She had an issue
and I volunteered.

And, to be honest, I knew
you'd be annoyed about it.

I didn't want the drama.
That's all it was.

I mean, look at this.

No, no, this drama
is about you lying to me.

This is not about you
helping people.

It's because I feel like
I can't find you.

Look, I am, I'm here!
OK? I am right here.

No, but you're actually not.

(EXHALES FORCEFULLY)

(ANDREW PACES)

(ANDREW SIGHS)

You know what? I'm not.

I'm sorry that I'm in my head...

..and that I'm not present
with you

and I... I'm sorry that I lied.

OK?

Do you want to be here?

Yes, I... I...
Yes, I want to be better.

Like, I want us to be better.

No, that's not what I asked.

Yeah.

Yeah, I want to be here.

I... Hey, Tegan.

OK.

ANDREW:
I really want to be here.

OK.

And there's not...
there's not gonna be

any more... fuckin'
secret superhero bullshit,

OK?

TEGAN: Hm.

I love you.

(TEGAN SIGHS)

(ANDREW EXHALES)

(SNIFFLING)

OK, I've really fucked up.

OK, look... (SIGHS)

Fuck it, OK.

I'm meant to be having dinner
with her tonight,

because... because she wanted
to thank me for the rides,

and I...

Hey, I'm gonna cancel that.
I'm gonna cancel it.

- OK?
- OK.

Yeah.

(TEGAN SIGHS)

('WITH OR WITHOUT ME'
BY LEAH SENIOR PLAYS SOFTLY)

(PHONE RINGS AND BUZZES)

Hey!

ANDREW: Leah, hi.

Hey, you OK?

Yeah.

A-Actually, no.

Look, I... I... I have
to cancel tonight.

Um, is everything OK?

Tegan...

..isn't... isn't feeling well

and I... I just
have to stay home.

I'm so sorry
for the late notice.

OK. Um, is she OK?

Yeah, yeah, she's, um...

You know, she's... she's fine,
but I... I just have to.

Sure.

(ANDREW SIGHS)

I'm sorry. I...

I hope... I hope you haven't
gone to too much trouble.

LEAH: No. (CHUCKLES)

I was just gonna order
some burgers anyway, you know?

I... I don't know.

May... maybe we...
we could have...

..have lunch or something soon
instead.

Sure, yeah.

Yeah, no, I'd love that.

Um, hey, look, I hope, uh...

I hope you're, um...
I hope Tegan's OK.

Thanks.

'Bye.

'Bye.

(ANDREW EXHALES)

(TEGAN SIGHS)

I want us to go
to couples therapy.

OK.

For real?

For... for real.

- Really? (CHUCKLES)
- For real! Really.

OK.

Thank you.

(SIGHS) What a...

(GLOOMY MUSIC)

(GLOOMY MUSIC CONTINUES)

(SOBS QUIETLY)

(JAZMYN SIGHS)

OK, so four missed calls
and about 30,000 messages.

- CAMILLA: Oh!
- Yep, she just won't stop.

She's nuts.

Hopefully she'll chill out
now that Karen's onto it.

(CAMILLA SCOFFS)

(WINE POURS)

SHARON: What do I do?

If I show this photo to anyone,

it could scuttle
the whole trial.

(SIGHS)
So do you have to show it?

Well, if I don't,
and someone finds out later,

it could be used in an appeal.

Well, what's your gut
telling you about this girl?

- (DOOR CLOSES)
- Salma?

(SHOUTS) Salma!

- SALMA: Don't shout at me!
- Where have you been all day?!

You, in here. Now.

Sorry, Hayley. Please go home.

I need to speak
to Salma alone, OK?

- HAYLEY: Yeah, OK.
- BASSAM: Thank you.

I've been texting.
I've been calling.

You've ignored my calls all day.

I've taken it down.

(BASSAM YELLS) After all day?

Do you understand how stressful
this has been for me?

Principal Thorne in one ear,
you not answering.

I turned off my phone
and I went to Hayley's place

because I was trolled big-time

and then the reporters
were outside of the house.

For fuck's sake, Salma!

Dad...

No, no, I'm sorry to swear,

but do you have any idea

what this has been like for me?

I did it for you.
Don't you get it?

- You did it for me?
- Yes, I did...

You completely misrepresented
the situation, Salma.

You were expelled 'cause

you were rude
and you were aggressive,

not because you're Muslim.

You were fired because you are.

Yeah, well,
that's for me to decide, OK?

You did it for me!

What you did was you made sure

I never get another decent job
again.

That's what you did.
Did you think about that?

Yeah, while... while you were
cancelling Principal Thorne,

you forgot
you were cancelling me too.

Leave me alone!

I'm ashamed of you!

(DOOR OPENS)

Ah, thanks for meeting me.

Oh, can I get you a drink?
What's your poison?

Ah, no, I'm good, thanks.

OK. Thanks.

Well, uh, don't mind me.
I'm parched.

Cheers. (CHUCKLES)

Mmm! It's good.

(CHUCKLES)

Amanda always ordered beer.

Well... (CHUCKLES)

Sounds like
we would've got on, then.

(LAUGHS) My wife, she only
drinks champagne and wine.

You must miss her a lot.

Yeah. A lot.

Look, ah, I just want to...

I just want to say I'm sorry

that my solicitor took
that first meeting with you.

It should have been me.

Look, I know that
this has been hard for you.

But I really care about Amanda.

In fact, she's all I care about

and I want the right person
put away for what they did.

So... if you have
anything relevant

that you think might have come
up since that first interview,

then, Louella, you can just
lay it on the table.

Um, let's say, uh...

..hypothetically,
I did have new information...

..and I do know Vincent
mentioned something to you.

Mm-hm, he did,
but he was pretty vague.

What if...

What if it exonerates
Alan Chaplin?

(INHALES SHARPLY)

Look, unlike Mr Colby...

..my duty is to present
all the evidence,

no matter what it is
or where it's from.

So, if you do have something -
hypothetically have something -

that will help this case,

then you should tell me,
Louella.

I promise you've got
nothing to lose.

(DOOR CLOSES)

I'm here to remind people

that we must defend the person

who has the right
to be defended by the law,

not the person who...

(MUTES TV)

It's depressing the way

that Amanda's being portrayed
in court.

I mean, she wasn't
falsely accusing innocent men.

She was strong and ballsy.

And, yeah, OK, she was
obsessive, but she was right.

RENEE: Mm.

It's always about
the fucking defendant.

- Yeah.
- All about him.

All about his life, his family.

- RENEE: Hmm.
- The... the focus is all wrong.

You know, the blame
gets put on her.

RENEE: Mm.

KODY: OK. Night, guys.

- Night-night!
- KODY: Night-night!

Do we not get a hug anymore?

We need to figure out
her ball gown.

Night, Kodes.

- KODY: Night, Mum.
- (DOOR OPENS)

- Oh! That is a nice drop.
- (DOOR CLOSES)

- Urgh, it's Brett Colby's.
- Mm.

Oh, and... and now we have a jury

that's sniggering at every
single one of his lame jokes.

Oh, my God, and he has
the fucking audacity

to tell me
that I don't have a heart.

(RENEE CHUCKLES) Do you?

- (LAUGHS)
- Fuck him.

This is a good drop.

It is. It really is. (LAUGHS)

- You don't think I have a heart?
- (LAUGHS)

- I do!
- Come here.

- DANNY: It's like you and me.
- Now, I'm gonna give you these.

Here we go. You have to
give those out, Danny.

Here we go.

DANNY:
I'm so trained to do this.

BETH: These hats are
in memory of that guy we had,

the witness today -
what was his name?

Oh, Ferret.

Ah, I'm right, aren't I, Brett?

I'm not making that up, am I?

- What's that?
- BETH: Oh, you know.

The chap who was
the witness today in court.

His name was, um... his name
was Ferret, wasn't it?

Very well named.
Yes, his name was indeed Ferret.

(BETH LAUGHS)

Oh, Josie, that reminds me.

Um... (SIGHS)

Your father made a request
of me today, and I...

JOSIE: Oh?

..tried to wiggle out of it,

but he insisted, so...

Go on.

COLBY: Here goes, alright? Um...

You should have waited
for Xavier to get here

and done a duet.

Oh, I-I forgot to say,
he... he can't make it tonight.

Oh, you mean
you forgot to tell him.

- Father of the Year!
- COLBY: No, no, no.

No, he... he, um...

He had to work on his music
at home, you know, that's all.

Oh, Colby.
Wait, as in Xavier Colby?

Like the synth, club stuff?

Kiwi muso, that Xavier Colby?

- Yeah.
- He's playing a gig in town.

- JOSIE: Oh! We should go.
- DANNY: No kidding.

You must be, like, super proud.

Super proud, absolutely, yeah.

That's right. Indeed.

- (GUESTS GASP)
- JOSIE: Oh! Mum!

- BETH: Oh!
- For fuck's sake!

Oh, my God, what are you doing?

Oh, God, sorry. I'm so sorry.

I... That was...
that was an accident.

- I...
- JOSIE: What's wrong with you?

BETH: Well, I didn't do it
deliberately.

- GUEST: Need a hand, Beth?
- Really and truly.

You know, if your dad
had dropped the cake,

you'd... you'd all be laughing.

(BETH SIGHS) It's alright,
it's alright. It's alright.

How was the birthday party?

Uh, it was OK.

Um, I got your message.

Everybody missed you.

Uh...

..why didn't you tell me

you've got some sort of
a gig happening?

It's no big deal.

It's just... someone spotted me

and next minute I'm booked.

Do you want to come?

Well, I would, but, um,

I think it's going to clash
with deliberations,

so I don't think I can
manage a late night.

That's why I didn't tell you.

Nina's waiting for you inside.

Right, OK. Yeah, thanks.

(DOOR SLIDES OPEN)

- Hi.
- (DOOR SLIDES SHUT)

John called?

Hasn't called, but I've traced
his movements as far as I can.

Edward John Dallimore
arrived in the country March 28.

He hired a car at the airport.

His family had a wedding.
It was his nephew in Collie.

Collie,
so they're farming people?

Coal. They are very wealthy.

They summered in Cape Rock
in John's childhood.

Right, that makes sense.

So he returned the car April 7

and there was no suspicious
mileage, but look at this.

He drives Perth to Collie
April 1,

cross country to Cape Rock,

kills Amanda April 6,

then back up the coast road

to board the plane to England
April 7.

COLBY: Hmm.

If he went this way, it
wouldn't show unusual mileage.

There's no tolls on either
highway, so we can't check,

but it falls into place.

It does indeed fall into place.

And I shall call him myself.

Right.

- COLBY: Well done, Nina.
- (NINA CHUCKLES)

COLBY ON VOICEMAIL:
Mr Dallimore,

um, this is Brett Colby, SC.

I am in the thick of
a murder trial,

and it is imperative
that I speak with you

as I believe that you have
critical information

to this case.

Now, as we are not able to meet,

could you please contact
my associate, Nina Distazio,

to set up an urgent video call?

With my thanks.
