True. I've got the shop. I've got Kiah after school and on weekends.

WOMAN: Oh, my goodness. June.

What happened to the car?

me

Probably the bride...

..after your rant about the wishing well.

it

I've had it, June.

Honestly, like, that's the reason I left early last night.

Do you ever think that when you're on one,

you not only make a fool of yourself, but also of your lover?

the principle of the matter.

What about the principle of driving home drunk?

Charlie? You two together?

You were definitely drunk.

Oh, that's a great look.

you should go on my behalf,

It's my job.

Speaking of, I have locked in the fundraiser for the 18th

and I really need you to be there. (PHONE BUZZES)

Another family event for you to make a dickhead out of yourself.

I fucking killed a man.

I haven't slept.

think you left it in my car?

Oh, what do we do?

Forget about it. What? June...

brother of mine

to that wishing well, didn't he?

card

OK, OK, OK. Don't think about it.

I'm thinking about it.

(KNOCK ON DOOR)

Oh, shit.

Dad!

Hey, Dad. Hey, Bub.

Mmm.

you've had a rough night.

Jalen's wedding.

got another call from the school.

Any of them white kids on behavioural plans?

Yeah, but what did the kid say?

What's this? we talked about.

Tom's not going to take the job

Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Bye, Mum.

Check ya.

Dad, please don't make me go to Sydney.

(EXHALES LOUDLY)

You want to tell me why you hit that kid?

I don't know. He was being annoying.

Can we go kick the footy?

And Mr Whippy ice-cream?

Ooh...

Of course, Bub.

Go and grab the footy. OK.

She's crazy like a fool

What about Daddy Cool?

A little bit higher, yeah?

Are you OK?

Wake up.

She's crazy like a fool

What about Daddy Cool?

I'm crazy like a fool

What about Daddy Cool?

Daddy, Daddy Cool

She's crazy about her daddy

Oh, she believes in him

She loves her daddy...

Perfect.

Daddy, Daddy Cool

Daddy, Daddy Cool.

They found him.

So what?

That means it's done, right?

Charlie boy! color="00ff00">Any luck selling my paintings?

Uh... Not yet, Uncle.

Coins! Aah...deadly one!

Hey, Charlie. color="00ff00">You couldn't spot me a 20?

Not today, Uncle.

Ten?

I don't have my wallet. I lost it. Fiver!

I'm getting my new cards tomorrow. OK?

Righto, Charlie.

Juney...

(REVERSE ALARM BEEPS)

Do you feel anything?

Not Coins, for George.

Hey, Auntie June, I drew this for you and Auntie Kate.

Go in the back, Bub. Get a feed. Yeah?

There's some polony in the fridge.

I will see you in a few months.

Uh, wait, wait. I need you to look at something.

If she keeps getting in trouble at school, can Amy just take her?

Well, can you give me advice as my sister?

(LAND LINE RINGS)

Hilda's.

June, the drawing.

Do I know George Clark?

You're his lawyer.

My wallet.

No. I must have dropped it when I was flogging off some records to him.

Yeah, I can, um...

I can come and get it at the wake.

straight out, OK?

don't fucking drop it again.

you need to focus.

There's a lot going on in my head, June.

and then I will come back to yours,

at your Kiah paperwork, OK?

MAN: Of course, the thing is that every time I see that game,

it reminds me of the '97 grand final.

I think it was, uh, South Freo and East Freo. Yeah?

We're all tied up, right, about 30 seconds to go.

I'm up in the forward pocket, leap up above the pack.

Awesome mark, swing around onto the left boot

and kapowy, straight into the goals and a win.

Best on ground. Man of the match. Do you want a sambo?

What's on it, mate? Uh, egg.

Oh, God, no. OK.

Yeah. It was quite a game.

Charlie.

Uh, George used to come to my record store.

That's why I'm here.

He was a good customer.

That sounded accusatory.

there was someone here under 60.

(LAUGHS)

Oh, well, welcome to Perth.

Sorry it's under bad circumstances.

(OVEN DINGS)

Uh, actually...

get some quiches out of the oven.

Sure.

(MUMBLES WITH MOUTH FULL) Are these made with free range eggs?

Yeah.

Because it's lovely and lumpy, but it's smooth as well. It's creamy.

Go in there and come out.

Sandwich? How about you? Would you like a sandwich?

There you go, love. Dig in.

I'm handing out curried egg sandwiches.

Hi. Um, did you know my uncle was well?

This is my sister, June.

She played trumpet with George.

Wow.

You don't strike me as a trumpet player.

I get that all the time.

Uh, Sharne's just come all the way from London.

Yeah. Um, I was his only family left alive.

I didn't really know him that well,

but I've got to pick up his personal effects

and sign a few papers with the lawyers.

Excuse me. I've really got to hand out these mini quiches

or there will be a geriatric riot.

(LAUGHTER)

So I'll put these away, and then we can go.

What? Why?

she signs the estate papers,

June. Ow. June.

June. June. June! (CLEARS THROAT)

Oh, sorry. It's alright.

I voted yes. You know.

Deadly, brother.

Well, he kept these in mint condition.

Some of these don't even have a scratch.

What?

Oh, I said that he kept these in mint condition.

Some of these records don't even have a scratch.

Didn't you sell them to him?

Yeah, he just kept them in good nick.

Fucking idiot.

You know what else he kept in good nick?

Ha...

Whoa!

Someone's having a bad day.

It is my uncle's funeral.

Bloody hell. I'm...I'm sorry.

Cheers. To Uncle George.

George.

Did he live a good life?

'Cause from the looks of things, he seems quite lonely.

He's got all this stuff and no-one to share it with.

He was alone, mostly, but, um...

..he kept himself busy.

He liked to walk, any time of the day, even night time.

Big walker he was.

And he had company.

Whisky and...

Oh, had good taste in music.

What? Country music?

Isn't it a bit redneck?

No. Music, the good kind, is pure.

Doesn't matter the flavour,

as long as it's sung straight from the heart,

you'll never be alone.

Trust me. Listen to this. Yeah?

My mum, she used to sing this.

She named both me and June after country music singers.

June Carter. Yeah.

Oh, she'd kill me if I spread the yarn.

Isn't it strange that she plays a trumpet and not the guitar?

She's always been the white sheep.

Must be nice being close to your sister.

Yeah, we hang out quite a lot.

Close family.

Well, I may not know music, but I can dance to it.

You'll be living in a world...

No. No, no, I haven't drunk enough yet.

OK, OK. Here we go.

All I have to offer you is me

See? I told you.

There'll be no mansions waiting on the hill

You can. Uh...

With crystal chandeliers

And there'll be no fancy clothes for you to wear

Everything I have is standing here

In front of you to see

All I have to offer you is...

(ALARM BLARES)

(CLANGING IN DISTANCE)

Oh, fuck.

Ooh!

It's all good.

That's fine.

Thanks.

Uh...are you... are you going somewhere?

Mm.

What time is it?

Shit. I have to open the shop.

.I will call you later?

Yeah, yeah.

Well, if you want to, it's cool.

(HORNS HONK)

Here's George's old clothes from the funeral home

and the death certificate stating that he died of natural causes.

autopsy say? No, there wasn't one.

You don't do autopsies on people

who die in unsuspicious circumstances, yeah?

Now, his body wasn't too bad,

apart from a bit of bruising on the legs and torso.

And the funeral director said that he was in tiptop shape, considering.

Cancer, eh?

Anyway, here's the updated will.

And here's the, uh, estate papers for signature,

and the death certificate.

Um, yeah, I think so.

Good-o.

(SLAMS DRAWER)

(PHONE CHIMES)

CHARLIE: So, did you, um, sign off on the paperwork?

Do you think I shouldn't?

is weird, isn't it?

That's not what I was saying.

when he was alone.

Hmm.

I will ask.

You know what?

My sister works with the police.

Yeah, we should give her a call. She would love to help.

She's a really good lawyer.

Good...good person.

You're fired.

You've been drinking.

You're late.

Your body odours are unacceptable, Roddy.

I mean, you're a walking stereotype,

and I can't have that around my clientele.

only hit the charge...

Mmm.

Oh, no.

No. Nope.

I'm not your sis.

..we're cousins, distantly.

still family, still mob.

So, you used to be useful...

..as an ex-liaison officer, Roddy.

But those police contacts have dried up, haven't they?

So, what use do I have for you as a private investigator?

Come on, up you get.

Sam's got your last pay cheque out there.

Go on.

talk to you later.

Oh, God.

(PHONE RINGS)

Ah!

Charlie?

(DING!)

From what I remember at band practice,

he was falling down a lot in those last few months.

He said he had weak knees from the cancer.

I mean, some days he couldn't even walk.

it might be nothing,

I sign the papers.

Mm. "We"?

Uh.. .it was probably the cancer.

Oh, please, just take a seat.

it's not definitive, right?

..I just want to be sure.

Look, I'll tell you what.

Uh, how about I have a yarn with the local police who found him?

No, no, no. It's fine.

I can just speak to them on an unofficial basis.

There's nothing more important than family.

JUNE: So, how's the planning for the fundraising going?

The governor is a tentative yes.

That's great.

Yeah, I like it.

were home late last night?

Um, yeah, I was, um, I was just at court all day yesterday.

because I called the office

is going on, June?

acting strange.

you're out of the office.

Charlie calling out of nowhere.

(SIGHS)

Kate, of course it's Charlie.

Come on.

You can't keep holding this over me.

I made a terrible mistake.

I went to therapy, I did everything that you asked.

I just can't...I can't keep saying sorry over and over.

I'm not still doing it, Kate.

I'm just...

I'm working a really important case.

(PHONE RINGS)

Yeah.

See ya.

Charlie.

The police found him watching Grand Designs UK.

They said that he looked like, in their words,

"That he went peacefully."

(TYRES SCREECH, THUDDING NOISE)

that's beautiful.

Yeah. And the bruising?

Ah, yes. The scene looked like he'd been bumping into furniture.

The cancer meds, you know, they do that - make you groggy, disoriented.

(KNOCK AT DOOR) Oh.

Uh, sorry.

(WHISPERS) Charlie...this ends now.

You keep looking at her with those doe eyes,

it's making me sick.

I know she's here. You can't just come in.

I tracked your phone.

Kate. I'm not stupid. This time.

Is this her? color="00ff00">Is that who you're fucking?

She's. ..she's very tall.

Charlie.

Kate.

This is Sharne, Charlie's woman.

Woman?

Sharne's uncle has recently passed

and I have been helping her with a legal estate issue.

I'm...I'm so sorry.

And your uncle died.

It's OK, it's OK. I hardly knew him.

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

Oh. Uh...thank you.

Can I can I make it up to you somehow?

Can I. ..can I take you out?

Oh... that's really not necessary.

I just barged into your dead uncle's place like a crazed lesbian.

Please. Yes.

June and I will take you and Charlie out.

Uh...yeah, sure.

Uh, great.

Yeah, lovely. Lovely.

Freo meets.

OTHERS: Freo meets.

So, how did you two meet?

Oh, we interned together.

She always does that.

See, I thought that I was going to be the best lawyer

because my father's a lawyer and now he's a judge.

And then June walked in with her... with her passion and her knowledge,

and I knew I had to have her.

And then it was dancing at Connections

every Friday until 1am.

They were fun times.

Stop it. Yeah, it was fun. It was fun.

Until she punched the boss.

Can we please not go there, babe?

No. This speaks to your passion.

And the boss was a misogynist and probably a racist,

and she punched him.

Wow. That's impressive.

But, still, color="00ff00">she proved everyone wrong,

and she opened her own law firm.

And that dickhead, he was done in for fraud and is now bankrupt.

So we won.

Yeah, and I found my passion in art dealing

for marginalised artists color="00ff00">in Aboriginal communities, you know.

Puts me to shame.

I don't even know what I'm doing day to day.

You should stay in Perth and enjoy the sun, and dating our Charlie.

Mm. What, have more Chicken Treat?

You took her to Chicken Treat?

I brought Chicken Treat to Sharne.

Charlie...

the port, Adventure World.

How will I ever leave?

Shall we settle the bill?

Should I...

(BELL DINGS)

What the actual fuck?

trying to have some fun.

It seems like you're trying to date this girl.

30.

Is that how much we each owe?

That's how many years you are up for in prison.

20 years for dangerous driving causing death,

under the influence of drugs.

Plus another ten for failing to report the incident

and for interfering with a corpse...

And I'm looking at ten years for being an accessory after the fact

and for professional misconduct.

This is not a love connection.

The connection is you killed your uncle.

Reality is, you'll be another blackfella behind bars,

leaving his kid.

KATE: And you should absolutely stay here,

because we never get to hang out with Charlie.

And it's good for June to be with family.

What, they never hang out?

No, no, only in the last couple of days.

And that's probably because of you.

So, you have to stay.

And, you know, Charlie's not that bad of a man to date.

I mean, yes, he's rough around the edges and he's completely daggy,

but he plays guitar, color="00ff00">and straight girls love that, right?

Well, June plays the trumpet. Do lesbians like that?

(LAUGHS)

What? What? June? No.

Girl, where did you get that from?

June...June doesn't have a musical bone in her body.

Not one. she...she... she is tone deaf.

Yeah, I think you just really need to spend a good year

getting acclimatised to Perth culture.

And I can help you with that. Oh!

walk you to your door.

Thanks.

Bye, Sharne. It was so lovely to meet you.

You, too.

Have a good night.

Oh, she's so lovely.

Isn't she lovely?

Good morning.

Um, look, we've been helping pack poor George's things,

and, uh, we noticed that someone smashed

his favourite gnome in the middle of the night.

loved old Dopey here.

And, uh, so we also noticed that you have cameras.

Oh, those cameras? Yeah, no, they're dummies.

Yeah, you'd be amazed how many people reckon they're real.

Real deterrent to youths.

Right.

Um, here, have, uh, Dopey, from George.

All we need is Sharne on that plane tonight, and we are free.

Ah, there are dating apps to help you get over it, Charlie.

Plenty of sharks in the sea.

Charlie?

What are you doing? (JUNE MUTTERS)

Good.

Um, I. ..I found something.

I came to see you, too.

These are Uncle George's pyjamas,

and they just...they just don't look right.

And it corresponds to the bruises on his legs.

Doesn't look like he went peacefully.

Oh, he was an old man.

He had cancer.

I mean, I saw him fall down quite a lot.

What, at band practice? Yeah, at band practice.

Huh?

I mean, to me, it looks like he's, I dunno,

gone out into the garden and got clumsy.

He fell down, got dirty.

Came back inside and then just fell asleep...peacefully.

always clumsy on his legs.

You said he walked all the time.

Yeah, well, maybe I'll just check with the neighbours,

see if they saw him in the garden.

Or...you know what?

I know a private investigator.

I mean, he's the best in the business.

He's got a real eye for forensics.

Yeah, I could get him just to come by

and have a look at George's things before you go tonight.

Well, that's not too much trouble?

No, no, no.

I'll get straight on to onto it.

Well, if you can't come today, he can come tomorrow.

Because I've changed my flight till the end of the week.

Hmm. Cup of tea?

I'm sick of having to do everything.

Oh, really? Did I ask you to sleep with her, did I?

Why would I be jealous of you?

Excuse me. We are NOT on the rocks.

That was a misunderstanding. And, anyway, it's none of your business.

Our lives are on the line here, Charlie.

with your designer fucking scarf?

blackfellas.

I will not be made to feel ashamed for working hard

and getting my fucking designer scarf.

I didn't see you complain when I bought you a record store, Charlie.

I still do all of your accounting paperwork, for free.

asked you to do it for free!

Good. I won't from now on, then.

Fine.

Get in the car.

MAN: You know what, Mum?

(DOOR CLOSES, ENGINE STARTS)

That's the people, I think, from the wake.

I, um...

(POOL BALLS CLACK)

I'm renting a room upstairs, but, uh...

..well, the TV remote's broken.

Stuck on the Food Channel, so I've just been...

..jerking it to Ready, Steady, Cook.

You know, I went out to get a. .. get a feed afterwards,

but, um, you know, my car... my car radiator blew,

and so I had to come back in.

I spent my last $20 on the horses.

Oh, Roddy, wake up to yourself and come and work this case.

Oh.

Thank you, Chloe. Any time, babe.

Thank you. Give me a couple of days.

No. Nope.

Now. What do you mean?

Come on, now.

June, I've got to...

Look, I can't... OK, wait.

Mm.

I'm coming. Wait.

(SOBS)

Is he OK?

It's all part of his method.

(PLAYS DISCORDANT NOTES) Makes him one of the best.

I'm good, I'm good.

You know,

he comes from a long line of bush trackers.

(RETCHES)

Honestly, I use him for all of my important cases.

Breathe. Breathe.

I've seen that before. Mm.

PLAYS GOD SAVE THE KING)

Hey! Ooh!

OK, so, um...

So, I'm guessing you have everything that you need, then, hey, Roddy?

Yeah. Did you get everything that you need?

Do you know Shazza left me? Yeah, I know. Let's go, hey?

And you can send me the report tomorrow.

I can do a job. Yeah, amazing.

I'm good. He is old friends.

Are you coming, Charlie?

Great.

That's, uh... One foot in front of the other.

No, I've...I've really got to organise some things,

so you go.

I'll just go to the pub.

True?

I hope he brings his wife.

Great.

She's going to be long gone before your fundraiser.

he seems kind of lonely.

He's not lonely, babe.

Blackfellas have got people around them all the time.

I've been spending a lifetime trying to get some peace.

he only has Kiah part-time.

your mum, he has no-one.

we both know that.

will propose on the spot.

Who told you that Sharne's gonna give him her uncle's record collection?

about yesterday...

I would like you to acknowledge.

Yeah, OK. Yeah.

I acknowledge.

(LAUGHS) And what about you tracking my phone?

was just like a fleeting, like,

Cheers.

KIAH: Mum's made shepherd's pie.

WOMAN: (OVER PHONE) Kiah!

OK, coming!

Bye, Daddy. Love you.

love you too, baby.

(BELL DINGS)

I know June wasn't in the band with my uncle.

I know she doesn't play trumpet.

I know you two don't usually hang out.

But I don't know why the lying.

Are you after money?

No, definitely not.

stupid, and June's June...

let me make it up to you?

we can go for dinner

not chicken and chips?

I don't like fancy wine.

I do like fish and chips.

And dancing.

know this is considered

No.

Oh, God. She's adorable.

She's my best mate.

me when she says bye.

She's moving?

Can you just go with her?

Mm.

Yes, I've never felt that.

I'm just full of shit.

I'm just scared.

So, what's next in my musical education?

know, let's have a look.

Ooh.

Apprehensive on Diamond.

I think I might need some more whisky and weed.

(CORK POPS)

(LIQUID POURS)

Ooh, sorry. That's more than a double...for you.

Are we gonna get this Diamond party started?

(KNOCK AT DOOR) JUNE: Charlie!

Where the frig is he?

Fuck.

Isn't this shop meant to be open?

base are late risers.

I've been trying to call you.

Now, did Sharne give you George's records?

Those records have value, Charlie.

Especially to you. Motive, intention.

Upgrades your charges from dangerous driving to mur...

(PHONE CHIMES)

June. Hi.

(MOUTHS)

Good morning.

Morning.

Um, I actually just got a text from Roddy.

What text?

First of all, color="00ff00">I would like to apologise.

I was completely unprofessional yesterday,

and for that...

..I am sorry.

But I have turned a new leaf.

Mm-hm.

All thanks to you, Charlie boy.

Your little coach talk -

clean myself up,

work this case,

win back my Shazza.

(SNIFFLES) With that in mind, I would, uh,

I would like to start again with a sober mind.

Uh, Roddy, maybe we should talk about this.

No, no, no, no. I've... I've mucked you around enough.

Sharne, would you mind if I look at the evidence?

Yeah. I'll get the pants.

Ah.

Yeah.

Uh.

Now, you see, it looks like dirt...

..but it's possibly paint, metallic.

So, what I'm going to do is give it a bit of...

Another good one.

That's nice. That's nice.

Now, I'll take these samples to the lab and get them tested.

Mm? Happy days.

Roddy?

Hey, look, uh, it's on my way,

I can drop those samples off at the lab for you if you want.

You know, you should go see Shazza.

With this second chance,

I want to prove to you that I am a professional.

OK, but it's just... it's just on my way.

Please. Are you sure?

Yeah, all good. Good? No, good.

Thank you. Good on you.

I respect that.

There we go.

So, are you OK with me staying a bit longer?

OK with you staying.

JUNE: Charlie!

You got a problem?

I saw.

Yeah, everything's fine.

You got nothing, and that's what you're gonna get.

Anybody else seen this?

You know, we don't need any trouble with this.

I'll fix it.

JUNE: What have you done?

Are we stepping out of line?
