Cameron.

I've made some inquiries on other proprietors.

We could bring in multiple store-fronts, not just one.

No.

..June.

I think that's a little harsh, Cameron, considering everything.

I mean...

Can't you just forge his signature?

- plausible deniability.

Check the holdings. Check the returns.

I think you'll be impressed.

Quite frankly,

if your business model relies on the cover of a little record store,

that's a level of exposure I'm not comfortable with.

I thought you were the boss man.

I've never met them.

This is workable.

I reckon you're gonna be thanking me.

CHARLIE: Arms up now. Arms up, closer together.

Like I showed you. Like a triangle, yeah?

OK.

Ooh.

You're alright, bub. That's alright. That's alright.

You're getting it. You're getting it. You know what, though?

Kiah?

That was pretty funny.

(LAUGHS)

Go on, kick it back. Kick it back.

Oh, kick the ball better next time, then.

off the field next time.

Oh... " Get off the field next time."

Boom, boom, boom. Phssh!

Yeah. Go and get a drink.

AMY: What the fuck?

Oh, no.

You were here the whole time.

I had to fend off that Karen of a counsellor

while you were here, playing Cool Footy Dad?

I lost track of time, Amy. Oh, could you be any more useless?

Well, how was it, then? Not good.

Yeah, it's not a good look, with Kiah's dad not showing up.

I thought we were supposed to handle this problem together.

I know.

You know what?

Kiah's not the problem, Charlie. It's you.

And that's why we're gonna take her to Sydney with us.

Hang on. I haven't said yes to that, Amy.

Are you that much of a selfish prick that you'd say no?

Really?

This school, this city, you, none of it is good enough.

And you know that.

Hey, bub. You ready?

Look, I know you mean well, but she deserves better than this.

And what am I gonna do when she's gone?

I don't know.

Off you go.

You should drift along, like you always do.

Mm.

Oh, Amy?

Can I get a lift back to the shop?

No.

See you, bub.

See you, Dad.

(ON VOICEMAIL) Hey, it's Charlie. If I'm not answering, try the shop.

I know I fucked up, Kate.

And I'm not just talking about yesterday.

It's been over the years. I've let you down.

I should have been at that appointment yesterday,

but I missed it because of a...

..a huge error of judgement.

But I'm gonna make it up to you.

I want you to know that I am serious about our future.

'Cause you and me, we're deadly together.

Look at this.

And look at you.

(BREATHES DEEPLY)

Sad day.

are you here, June?

Charlie, it's about Mum.

(SIGHS)

This is ridiculous. you're ridiculous!

I'm here for Mum, you fucktard!

I loved her.

Just sign the fucking financials!

Because your business is not the only one

that runs out of the record store.

listed another business.

Businesses.

23.

I was in a bind.

It's my fault. I nearly filed for bankruptcy.

Then some people approached me and...

..I took their offer.

Kate couldn't bail you out?

(LAUGHS) Are you insane?

I couldn't ask Kate for that.

I was already walking a tightrope with her at the time.

They're just shell companies, Charlie,

run out of the record store.

They're what keeps us afloat.

I just need you to sign the papers.

Charlie...

Charlie?

Charlie? away from me, June.

Charlie!

(GRUNTS)

Charlie?!

So, that's the thing with probate

is you've always got to protect the flanks.

Well, it's pretty simple.

Well, it should be.

You get the will lined up, the beneficiaries put in place,

and then you just kick it out of the park.

Then, of course, the umpires get involved.

keen

The officials in this case, they're like the defence, you know?

They've got a job to do. But, fuck me, they are a pain.

Now, ordinarily, I would insist on certain standards of ID,

but luckily for you, I've got some fancy footwork there.

You know, I'll never forget when George first came to me.

God, he looked so fit, so switched on, you know?

He was lucky he had Valda.

Well, he went downhill pretty quick at the end, there.

Valda had to do everything for him in those last few weeks.

Even dole out his meds.

She doled out his medication.

I mean, he was on some pretty heavy stuff by the end, there.

No, she was an absolute saint, the way she cared for him.

I mean, no wonder he left her the house, eh?

Anyway, it's already in the will.

Can't argue with the refs now, can we, eh?

Um, I've just got to fill out a couple of pro-formas.

Nothing too scary.

Where are they? Here we go.

So, if you could just fill those out for me...

('I DON'T CARE' color="00ff00">BY TRANSVISION VAMP PLAYS)

I'm led to believe you're on the bones of your arse out here.

I never said that. Why would...?

But here you are,

with no way to get home.

That's a shame.

Now, my boy is a good judge of character.

He likes you.

And I need someone of good character.

An old, dear friend just passed away.

He's left me his house. It's in the will.

But there's another beneficiary, a niece.

She's only been left a record collection.

But neither asset can be distributed until she's found.

His family abandoned him.

The actual niece clearly doesn't care.

We could wait up to weeks, months, years, before we get contact.

to pretend to be the niece?

That's right, pet.

Just for a week. Sign off a few papers.

Stay in the house, if you like.

I'm willing to pay.

$10,000.

Cash.

a few papers, that's it?

And the quiet contentment you've helped to honour

an old man's dying wishes.

Can I pass you the bags, Mum?

VALDA: Right. (DOOR CLOSES)

Pop the bags on the bench.

Wash your hands before you touch the mince.

Yes, Mum.

Flick the kettle on and I'll have a cup of tea.

Um, can we have taco night this week?

Yes, yes.

Yes!

(WATER RUNS)

VALDA: Are they today's biscuits?

Uh, two of them are from the last packet.

OK. No, no, that's alright. Don't... Alright.

This is fine. This'll do. This'll do.

Hmm.

(GROANS) Put the box on?

Oh, no.

Let's just have a bit of quiet for a while.

(PHONE CHIMES)

Hold on.

Hmm...

It's not me. Hmm.

That's a shame.

Baaaaah!

Jesus, that was loud.

There's no-one here.

It's very odd. Maybe it was next door.

Very, very odd.

Oh... Oh, well...

Hi, Missy.

What do you want?

the money you promised me.

an extra 10 grand.

Mum...

Paperwork first, love.

You can count it if you want.

Suit yourself.

Can I give you some advice?

Fuck off and go home.

That was a bit mean. The last bit was...

Not another word from you. Righto.

(ANSWERING MACHINE BEEPS)

20 grand.

What? 20 grand. Where'd you get that from?

I wouldn't trouble yourself about it, pet.

Just lying around, was it?

You need to be more careful, Mum.

Why don't you just spill it out, seeing as it's worrying you?

You could do a lot with 20 grand, OK?

You could get new stools for the pub.

You could get. ..a bingo area set-up.

I'm just saying. Yeah, I guess you are just saying,

You know I can't stand a cry-baby.

So, if there's something you want,

you should go out and get it yourself...

..instead of waiting for your mother to dole it out.
