Bring it on, you bastards.

SHE SIGHS

Hmm.

- If you're here to have another go... - Who's having a go?

I just have some questions, what's wrong with that?

Was the pounamu a gift from you? And where were you when Cassy died?

Which are simple, inoffensive questions.

Look, I know you're going through hell right now,

but you've got it so wrong.

Cassy and I were best friends, and I loved her so much.

I'm on her side and yours if you'd let me.

Bullshit you are.

You were screaming your heads off at each other before she died.

She wanted you to tell the truth.

What, did she want to leave Ewan for you?

Did you not want to? Did you want to shut her up for good?

If I was in a relationship with her,

why the fuck would I keep it a secret?

Because she was getting married to another man! She was engaged!

HE SIGHS

Are you protecting someone?

Where were you that day? Teddy, please.

HE SIGHS

White-baiting with Harry.

Cos when I got back here,

I got word from the fire team

that Cassy hadn't come back from the peak.

I...I miss her like hell, but...

I know that you're trying to blame it on someone, but she fell.

You know, let's...

CAMERA CLICKS

- What? - Lying piece of shit, you are.

METAL BANGS

You can't come around here and do that.

Mia!

SHE HUMS SOFTLY

Geez! Mum!

Morning, darling.

The hell is that?

Do you have a photo of her?

Of who?

Of your new girlfriend.

I don't have a girlfriend, Mum.

SHE SIGHS

So much like your father.

That's a really shitty thing to say.

Hey, talk to me. You're upset.

I don't know, I...

I just had the rug pulled out, Mum.

Oh.

- Hey. - Do you think Cassy was happy here with us?

Because she always said she was.

And now it's like...

I can't get any answers. I...

..I can't ask her why...

..or what I...what I did.

- Shit. - Hey.

You do know, good darling, that grief is...is a tidal wave

that knocks you off your feet.

It makes your head spin.

It tricks you. It taunts you.

It messes with your mind.

Well, some days you might think that you're losing it completely.

I often used to see your father on the street, or in a crowd.

Sometimes, I'd call out to him or...

..or follow after him before my mind caught up.

Before I remembered.

Mum, Cassy wasn't who we thought she was.

I was about to marry a complete stranger.

And now, I really don't know what to trust.

Oh, there we are!

DOOR CREAKS AND SHUTS

Oh, uh, I thought the meeting was at Ewan's.

Teddy Wilson says you were with him on Tuesday.

What? Bullshit.

- So he was lying? - Wait, what are you on about?

Apparently, you were white-baiting with Teddy Wilson,

down by the river, on Tuesday,

around the time that my sister fell.

That's what he's telling me, anyway.

And now you've just told me it's bullshit.

No, you're right.

- We were white-baiting. - What?

- Why are you lying to me? - Why are you interrogating me?

Either you're covering for him, or it was the two of you.

- What the hell? - This town is split in two.

What side are you on? Because I'm betting it's not my sister's.

I don't do sides.

I'm not a farmer, I'm not a rewilder.

And you know what? It's not as dramatic as you think.

We've all known each other a really long time.

We fight about politics, right versus left,

about sport, rugby or league.

But at the end of the day,

we all agree that we live in the best place on the planet.

And however we go about keeping it that way,

we don't kill each other over it.

We were white-baiting.

End of story.

DOOR OPENS AND SHUTS

Good timing.

Is it?

I was going to come find you, but...

..here you are.

Postmortem results back then? Foul play confirmed?

Nope. No results yet.

So, you just realised all on your own?

Had an epiphany that maybe Cassy was too experienced a hiker

to just fall?

No? Too much to hope for?

Louise Wilson's been to see me.

She said you went round to her farm,

you started throwing some accusations around.

Well, someone has to.

She said you've been harassing Teddy.

I have been asking Teddy a lot of questions about Cassy's death, yes.

If you won't do your job, I'll do it for you.

Do you know Cassy and Teddy were sleeping together?

There's a video of them,

swimming naked in the river together.

Some might say frolicking.

And then, on Tuesday, they were arguing.

Some kids heard them.

There's a strong possibility that your daughter was there,

so you might want to ask her.

OK, if I were you, I'd be very careful

about the kinds of accusations I'm making.

Teddy told me that your other half in there and him

were white-baiting the day that Cassy died.

No?

I was on duty.

So that's a no, which I already figured,

because he just now seemed like he couldn't make up his mind.

Which makes me think he's covering for someone.

What do you think, Detective?

Sargeant.

And I think you're grieving.

- And I think you're grasping for answers. - No, don't do that.

Don't treat me like I'm broken.

Because I'm not. I'm fucking angry.

Teddy's a farmer.

Cassy was a rewilder. They were at war.

I thought Harry said that everyone in this town got along.

It's a small town.

When it comes to the crunch, differences are put aside,

like the way that everyone came together to find Cassy.

What? Oh, you are deluded.

- Wake up, you twat. - Louise Wilson has

taken out a trespass order against you,

which she's well within her rights to do.

And if you set foot on her farm again, I will arrest you.

Understand?

Do you recognise this man, by any chance?

- No. - Teddy. Teddy Wilson.

He would have been here last Tuesday.

- Teddy Wilson? - Are you sure you've not seen him?

- No. - He was probably with another guy.

Yeah, I know Teddy.

He's here every week, end of the day, like clockwork.

He buys his catch from me.

- Buys? - Well, yeah.

No-one wants to go home empty-handed, do they?

So, he was here this last Tuesday,

the day that the girl went missing up the mountain?

No. You see, Teddy always gives me some cash, and then I use that cash

to buy a couple of drafts on the way home, but...

- But not this week? - Nah.

Dry as, eh? I tell you.

OK. Uh, thanks. That's...

..that's helpful.

You did not find all this shit on the beach?

Yeah.

Some.

OK, I went through the recycle bin for some.

You can't say it's made from rubbish washed up on the beach if it's not.

It's about getting the message out there.

You don't even have a model.

Because she died.

You know, maybe it's for the best.

Kind of sucks.

I'm going to ask Cassy's sister.

Bullshit!

That psycho bitch?

They're about the same size.

Yeah, nah. I don't think she's going to want to wear your dress.

But...

..better news.

Think I'm going to drop this during the festival.

Wait, did you buy it off her?

SHE SMIRKS

Nah. She handed them over.

- Willingly, actually. - Yeah.

Wait, so...

..so now she knows we know about her stuff

after I talked to her.

So?

- Crackhead like her probably doesn't even remember. - Yeah.

You know, who gives a shit?

- Can I have one? - No.

- Probably eaten all of them. - I have.

They were mine, you know? I was saving them.

You got a good pantry, dude.

Yeah, I have.

Can I have this?

What? Put it down.

- No? - I'll...I'll share it if you want to share it.

- Shut... Stop! No, I'm serious. - It's going to be a good festival night.

Huh? Come on.

Guess you found my hiding spot.

HE SIGHS

I just couldn't really deal with today.

It is peaceful.

Mm.

Did Cass ever come here?

Yeah.

But not with me.

It's kind of my, um...

..alone place, for thinking.

Sorry.

- Some coffee? - Mm.

I've only got one cup.

Thanks.

So what brings you down here?

Teddy.

Oh.

He knows something.

And he's holding on to it.

Fucker.

- Oh, you think? - Hmm.

Probably get it out of him, too, if I paid him another visit.

He'll keep.

Yeah.

Fuck's sake!

Mia?

You OK?

Yeah. Where I'm from, it's rude to read other people's messages.

Ha!

Is that another local quirk?

It's just an alarm. I meant to delete it ages ago.

You sure about that?

Yeah.

Uh, I need to go.

Lots to do.

Um...

Thanks for the coffee.

Hey.

- Are you and your mates taking the piss? - What?

Hanging around outside the eco-pods, eavesdropping.

What? Why don't you tell me?

Was it you that put the bats in my room, as well?

Was that your handiwork, Wednesday Addams?

Well, you seem really mad at me,

but I honestly have no idea what you're talking about.

Apparently, you gave Josh and Ava some of your patches.

Yeah, and if someone hadn't blathered to them about me having

prescription drugs on me, maybe they wouldn't have zoned in on me.

OK, well, I... We actually all...

I can make it up to you.

It's fine.

You, Mia Beaton, get to be my model,

on the stage at the Whitebait Festival.

Cassy was going to wear the dress I'm making.

Is that actually true?

Why would I make it up?

So, you could see me make an idiot of myself down a catwalk?

OK, well, one, you wouldn't be an idiot.

You would be a literal babe

because my dress is literally stunning.

And two, I don't tell lies.

Well, that would make the first one in the family not to.

SHE SIGHS

So what, you and Cassy were close then?

Yeah, she was cool.

She always liked my outfits.

She was legit.

What are you, like, 16?

- 17. - Yeah, so she's not going to share with you, is she,

about what's happening really in her life?

Everyone does know everybody else's business.

Did she ever say anything about her and Teddy spending time together?

Like, too much time?

Well, Teddy's awesome. Like, he's really nice.

But she was about to be married to Uncle Ewan, so...

- Yeah, nah. - "Yeah, nah"? - Nah.

She never mentioned anything about them maybe even being in love?

That would be a literal scandal.

Oh, my God, is that...is that what was happening?

That is so friggin' romantic and...

..and tragic. And is...?

Is that...is that what was happening?

I thought you said you knew everyone's business.

I'm 17, and no-one talks to me.

Except Cassy.

- OK, thanks, Sadie. - Hey, do you want to give me your phone number?

Sadie Grimes touches up dead guys!

Does that happen a lot?

Yep.

So I can call you

to organise a dress fitting?

Stay away from your stupid friends. They're idiots.

SHE SIGHS

ENGINE REVS

You'll change your mind.

How's Mrs O?

Heard she's a great Airbnb host.

Do you know anything about local bats?

Yeah, yep. Um, we've got the long-tail and the short-tail,

which we're in danger of losing.

Um, we do heaps of monitoring.

Anyone all over the country can ring in and, um, report a sighting.

Oh, well, count me in.

Because I found a bunch of them in my room last night.

Uh, probably moths.

I do know the difference between a bat and a moth.

We've got some pretty big bugs here.

You met a weta yet?

I know what I saw.

What I don't know is how they got

into my room through a closed window.

Do you have any idea how rare our one and only native mammal is?

You don't just see them hanging out in the trees,

flapping around of an evening,

and all of a sudden they're in your room?

Get a grip, yeah?

You know, Cassy once told me that New Zealanders were some

of the friendliest people she'd ever met.

Yeah, well.

I know what I saw.

Someone put them in my room last night.

You honestly think that after busting my ass

to increase the population, I would let these precious,

endangered creatures into your fucking Airbnb?

I think someone wants me to stop asking questions.

I don't give a shit what you do. You're imagining things.

Now, if you actually saw a native bat, please go to our website,

fill in the form, all the information about your sighting.

We really appreciate the help to map out where this tiny

population of bats has spread.

I look forward to reading.

Hi.

Hi.

You missed the funeral meeting.

- Harry just left. - Yeah.

Thought I'd leave you guys to it.

He had mentioned you'd been stirring things up a little bit.

Apparently, Louise is on the warpath, too.

SHE SCOFFS Whatever. She's full of hot air.

Well, be careful. She swings that gun around pretty freely.

She wasn't ever going to pull the trigger.

What did I miss?

Well, hopefully I've got everything.

Yeah.

You knew her really well.

It's bang on.

Yeah, I just... I don't get it.

If Cassy loved you, she wanted to marry you,

then that would be it for her.

She didn't sleep around, so why would she cheat on you?

I just think, if she wanted to be with Teddy,

she would call off the wedding.

HE SIGHS

I'm sorry. Do we...do we really have to go there again?

Sorry. Cheating just isn't the Cassy that I knew.

What?

I mean, no offence, but this is the first time you've visited.

It's been, what?

SHE SCOFFS

Three years or so?

It's not like I can just...

- ..hop on a bus or... - Mia.

M-I-A.

Missing in action.

Cass used to joke about it all the time.

Well, we called, and we FaceTimed, and it was fine.

- She never said anything. - Well, not to you.

Maybe, like me...

..you didn't know her all that well.

Maybe she wasn't this great, perfect person.

I just want to be real with you.

That's all.

You know, if you'd asked me, I'd have come.

But you did ask.

I did come.

I'm here, Cass.

I'm here.

I'll fix this.

Cassy, please!

I will make this right.

Help me!

DOOR SLAMS, PHONE CHIMES

Shit!

Ah!

OK.

Evening.

VIDEO CALL RINGS

- Morning, Mia. - Jacky, evening.

You'll know Martin Scott and Ashley McLaren from the board.

Yeah, thanks for getting up so early.

Please accept our condolences.

This must be an incredibly difficult time for you.

It is.

But we do have a situation here,

which has to be dealt with as a matter of priority.

Yeah, understood.

Mr Coulter's family lawyers have, this morning, informed us

that they will be pursuing a medical negligence lawsuit

against the hospital.

The issue we have relates to some intraoperative irregularities,

which have come to light.

The patient was 52 years old, male,

admitted with penetrative stab wounds.

Fifteen minutes into surgery, the patient experienced

sudden tachycardia, hypertension and VF arrest.

Despite everyone's best efforts, he died on the table.

The anaesthetic nurse has raised concerns.

Why did he wake after you gave him the induction agent?

I don't know.

I thought the line had tissued, but I checked it, and it was OK.

He was a user, so I had difficult IV access.

I could only get a line into his external jugular.

Coulter was a big man, he was a smoker.

I might have underestimated the dose,

but he had a knife in his belly and was at risk of bleeding out.

I didn't want to overdo it.

Postmortem results reveal he had evidence of coronary artery disease,

takotsubo cardiomyopathy, which, as you know, is a rare

heart condition, which is a result of a massive

and intense surge of catecholamines.

Could the stress of awareness during an operation -

actually being awake - could that have contributed to his death?

I think the stress of being stabbed was enough for that.

There's no evidence that awareness in anaesthesia

has cardiac implications, but we do need to consider it.

These results were unusual.

Did you do an IFT test?

Come on, Jacky.

It was emergency surgery.

We didn't have time for that.

Look, we did what we could.

We had evidence of coronary artery disease on PM.

How were you before this?

What do you mean?

I mean, how have your shifts been?

Same as usual.

Overworked, not enough hours in the day.

Is there anything else going on with you that we need to know about?

Uh, other than the death of my sister, no.

I'm so sorry for your loss,

and I'm sorry about the timing of this,

but as you know, I have to investigate all outcomes.

Yeah, look,

none of us like to lose a patient, no matter who it is.

DEFIBRILLATOR POWERS UP

So, is...is that us?

The family are still making noises about suing.

I thought we'd covered everything.

Their solicitor mentioned that there is the possibility

- of a formal investigation. - Yes, you said.

- I'm sorry it's come... - Uh!

Bollocks.

Did you see anyone?

Libby probably wants to have a chat.

Brilliant.

I'll, uh, hold her off till the morning, eh?

Tell her to talk to her friend, Louise Wilson.

That's the first person she should speak to.

Uh, there's a...a bed made up in the study, and...

..probably a little bit of hot water left if you want a shower.

Are you OK, Mia?

I mean, truly.

I killed someone.

Back home, before I left.

The patient suffered a cardiac event.

In surgery.

They're saying

that they think it's my fault.

I'm sorry, that...

..must feel very shitty.

I'm fucking meticulous.

I take pride in my work.

It's hard to take.

Cassy was always proud of you.

"My sister, the doctor."

Do you know what the worst part is?

This patient that I might lose my career over...

..was a rapist.

He was a kiddie fiddler.

Another prisoner attacked him.

So some might say it's the universe ridding itself

of another worthless, disgusting bastard.

Of course.

Some might say that.

But what my colleagues are saying

is that they need to investigate.

That his family have a right to sue.

And now, I, I am the one that has to go through hell

because his heart gave out

whilst we were trying to save his miserable life.

I'm so sorry.

What the hell happened?

What happened to Cassy's pod?

What do you think? Probably revenge, I would say.

No way.

Did you see anything, Natalie?

- I was in town, getting dinner. - Hmm.

We don't know if whoever did it knew that Mia was inside.

You were inside it when it went up.

- They're getting serious now. - Oh, now they're getting serious?

If I was to smell your hand right now, would it smell like accelerant?

Petrol-driven chainsaw.

Now, why would I want to get rid of you, Mia?

Go on, what's your theory on that one?

Well, there was a fire, and someone lit it.

Unless you're going to tell me it was the bloody Grey Man.

The Grey Man?

Mia, hey.

Come on, don't go.

Nat was outside Cassy's pod when I got there.

Hey, look, she would never, all right?

She helped build those things.

She has a massive crush on you. Have you noticed that?

Could Cassy have got in her way?

HE SIGHS

OK, maybe she's still got a thing for me, all right?

But she knows the score, we're all mates.

Cassy actually really loved her.

Well, I don't know.

I just feel like I have walked into a massive game of whack-a-mole,

and every time I'm getting somewhere,

some other random pops up.

And now you're saying that I didn't know Cassy and that she resented me.

I never said resented.

She'd be within her rights.

I looked after her our whole lives.

I tried to protect her.

And then she comes here, where it's meant to be paradise,

and it's safe and free.

And she's in love.

And then this happens.

And it...

This isn't how it's meant to...

God, it just...

It doesn't make sense.

Look, Cassy was evolving this past year.

She had this...

I don't know, this super focus.

She was...

..risk-taking, pushing boundaries.

She was...

She was just different to what she used to be.

Come on.

I've got to show you something.

It's one of Annot's favourite stories.

Some arsehole tried to smuggle this wolf cub into New Zealand.

She was caught at the border, put into quarantine.

She was about to be euthanised, so we rescued her.

Cassy was just so fired up that night.

You couldn't not get caught up in it.

So what now?

You can't just keep it locked up.

Yeah, I know.

I wanted to try and smuggle her back to wherever she came from,

but Cass just would not have it.

So she just kept it in a cage?

Cassy wouldn't do that.

I'm sorry to tell you this, Mia, but...
