Original subtitles

Before he died,

Jonas told me that he buried Zeke alone to protect David.

You think David's the best donor match for Bess?

So you need him out of here.

I did my part. Now you do yours.

Irishman's car? Yeah. He's trying to skip town.

100 million on an unproven rare earth mine.

Miss Chen and Mr Zhao here

just want to take one last look at their investment opportunity.

It is the way of the future.

And so you just thought you'd go and raid Jonas' mine?

Uh, yeah. Just enough to get us out.

Murder victim's ute.

Were there any keys? No.

What the hell?

Stanley's gone. What do you mean, Stanley's gone?

Jonas' ute's gone from the lockup.

♪ Hey

♪ Yeah

♪ Hey, yeah. ♪

1, 2. Testing, 1, 2.1, 2.

Next we have, uh, Patty and Ray.

Let's give 'em a warm Port Augusta welcome, folks. Uh, Patty and Ray.

Gary, gloves. It'll make my hands smell.

Tell me things, Carol. Yeah, this is a clean-up job.

Someone's trying to hide their dirty work

before we can even begin forensics.

Sounds like Stanley.

What, like he broke out of lockup and hot wired the car?

Nope. Why's that?

'Cause the key showed up. Where?

In the ignition.

Ah.

Could be the key to the investigation.

Shooting star.

Make a wish.

Hello, Patricia. Naughty. Naughty, naughty.

Hello, Gordon.

You look hungry.

Well, I don't...

like it at all and... No. Is that correct?

No. No, that's not what I'm saying. I understand.

Please repeat the issue you are experiencing.

OK, listen, I don't... OK.

I don't know what you're training it on over there,

but this thing only knows how to talk to people

like they're a child or like they're a psychiatric patient.

And that is not my situation, OK?

I am a perfectly healthy, functioning adult,

and the only thing that I am looking for is some...

Some what? ..Intimacy.

I understand.

We actually offer an alternative model

designed for romantic companionship.

Please confirm if this is what you're looking for.

Hello? Are we still connected?

Nell.

Are you making friends? Everywhere I go.

I don't have any food for you.

I have food at my house.

Gordon. Oh, oh, hey.

It's Ivan. Gordon doesn't have any food.

Can you go over to my house, please? It's in the kitchen.

Good.

Thank you.

Give him a pat for me.

Good.

Your cat?

Gordon.

Gordon? Is he alright?

I can't lose that cat. You won't. It's gonna be fine.

I love that cat. Can you open this? Yes. Sorry.

Station?

Kalingra.

OK. What about Stanley? Let's talk to Kyle.

Ah.

Something tells me he'll know where Stanley is.

David.

David.

David.

The haematologist called.

What'd she say?

She said you're a match,

which means you can keep your granddaughter alive, David.

Are you about to ask me to defy God's will?

Are you asking me to go back to the police

and tell them I lied for you?

I'm sure they'd understand.

A desperate mother lying to save her child.

Mmm.

Oi, Elsie.

Elsie.

Come here.

No.

You answer to me now.

How did you get my number? Phone book.

No, I can usually reach people no one else can contact.

Wow. Do they take your calls?

Straight to MessageBank, actually.

OK.

Where are you?

I'm about to fly out. It's a big day tomorrow.

Kalingra finally goes live, and I was wondering if you want to come.

Bess, too. Of course.

Lydia, my darling. You know what today is?

Today is the first day of the rest of our lives.

Beautiful.

I'm gonna need you to count all the zeros.

Where do you want to go first? Should we go to the Seychelles?

Maybe Ibiza.

Somewhere with snow.

Oh, I like that. Alright.

OK.

Doug, where's the money?

Robbie's fucking us, Doug. Fix it!

Bloody Inglis.

What the fuck are you playing at?

Howdy, cowboy. Robbie in there?

None of your business. Everything's my business, Ray.

Where you've been, what you've done. What you feed that dog of yours.

I've got eyes everywhere.

But I block my ears for country music.

He's not in there. Robbie...

I want a word.

♪ Lord, I'm a gambler

♪ I'm a long way from... ♪

How are you, Doug?

What are you playing at, Pat? Where the hell's Robbie?

Well, he very kindly lent us his limo last night.

Now, what have you done with my Irishman?

Your Irishman? Mmm. There's a food chain here.

My justice comes first.

Must have done a runner.

Saw your calling card in the boot of his car?

Well, you know what they say.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Don't push it.

I can shut you down.

Can you but? Compromised as you are.

Destroying key evidence in a murder investigation.

Oh, Patricia, Patricia, you're playing with fire.

♪ We used to have... ♪

You tell your boss,

I want my share allocation before they list Kalingra tomorrow.

We had a deal, and I don't like being fucked over.

I want to see him before he flies out. You tell him that.

Nobody gets to tell Robbie Inglis what to do.

I'm telling you what to do, Ray.

Let's go.

What did he want with you? Nothing.

Nothing.

Mr. Inglis says no visitors.

We can just drive around it, Kyle.

Kyle.

What's up?

Where is everybody? This is it.

So this is Kalingra.

Nobody works here.

Don't ask me. They're all in bloody Sydney, I don't know.

Where's Stanley, Kyle?

What, did he bust out on you again, huh?

Listen, it's really important that you tell us where Stanley is.

He wouldn't have gone far.

He's got the Iron Ring tomorrow night.

He'd never miss that.

He's a murder suspect, Kyle.

I told you he didn't do it.

Well, then he has nothing to worry about.

Why is that locked? So you can't get in. That's why.

Thank you, Kyle.

I get that you're trying to look out for your friend,

but the longer that Stanley is on the run,

the worse this is going to get for him.

Do you understand that?

Where is he?

Hmm?

Is there anybody that he would be with?

Look, I know he looks after his mum.

His mum?

Kalingra Investors' Memorandum.

Mmm.

"My journey in mining began with my father."

Oh, right.

Everything's a journey. Nobody's going anywhere.

They're all on a journey. How about that, Kyle?

I'm gonna see if I can track down Stanley's mum.

Mmm.

What's this?

I don't know, it just looks like a whole lot of dirt to me, OK?

Ivan.

Soil. Geochemistry system.

Shall we check out the local wildlife?

So we've got no signature yet from Delaney.

Nothing in writing. What about her CFO?

Weren't you the one who played golf with him

or some boomer shit in Dubai last year?

Look, get it done. Get her on the hook. She's so close.

I can feel it. Yeah, OK. I'll talk to you from the plane.

Detectives.

Welcome to my pied-a-dirt. This is a nice set-up.

Not quite the golden view, but it's close.

This is very impressive. It's a good shot.

Ah! Now, where did you get that, detective?

That is commercial-in-confidence, I'll have you know.

I didn't know you were in the market.

Ah, funny.

What about you, highway patrol?

Oh, I guess I'm old fashioned. I prefer real money.

Ooh. Catching strays everywhere today. Jesus.

We are a highly regulated industry, I'll have you know.

Hmm. It's true.

Have any local investors? Local?

Um...

No, not that I know of.

We're asking everybody. Where were you last Tuesday?

It's fine. I respect the process.

Uh, last Tuesday,

I was watching my investors tear strips off Colleen Delaney

in a bidding war over lunch before they flew back to Shanghai.

Alright, well, thank you, Mr. Inglis.

Mr. Inglis. You get that, dad? She's wishing you a good day.

Robbie. Thank you, detective.

Ah!

Here he is, my little songbird. You heard the good news?

He got a record deal. Is that right?

It's the Sunday residency, boss. No, you stop that.

My Razor, he has the voice just like Johnny Cash.

He spent some time in prison, yeah?

Even the good guys can end up in prison sometimes.

Isn't that right, detective?

Very good.

Thank you for your time, Robbie. My pleasure.

Uh, I am going to need that back, detective.

I'll hold on to it for when I come into 300K.

What am I gonna do about the mayor? Call the pilot.

Wheels up as soon as we hit the tarmac.

Yo, baldy.

How's it going?

Oi, baldy. Have you got your aeroplane goggles on?

Huh?

Hello. Hello.

Sorry, that was just my broker.

Just with some Sydney... Anyway...

Absolutely fine. ..thank you for waiting.

Razor doesn't really give me much of a choice, but you're welcome.

You're welcome.

So you like being a big boy, summoning people?

Yeah, when it's presidents and prime ministers, sure.

It's a lot of fun, but they usually make their own way here.

You got a lift so you're special. Mm-hm.

What is this, Robbie?

Is this pity? What?

Is it a knight in shining armour thing?

No. It is.

No, it's not. What is it, then?

Do you like slumming it? Hmm?

Well, no offence,

but everyone I hang out with, I'm kind of slumming it.

Uh, no, I...

I, I mean, I came from nothing, right?

I come from a dusty old town just like this one with

the same mean-spirited, selfish people.

And they called me queer

and said that I was just nothing but a dead miner's kid, you know?

And then I sold my first start-up for $300 million

and all of a sudden they were calling me a unicorn.

Robbie, I'm living in a cave

with the fucked religious order that raised me.

I hitchhiked here. You came on a private jet.

You have a choice, and I don't.

I'm trying to give you... No, no, no.

A choice, the best choice.

All I needed was to find a donor for Bess and I found one.

What? Who?

Her grandfather.

And, yes, it might just be another one of his miracles, I don't know.

But I need to stay here.

Jonas is gone. Zeke is gone. David is Bess's best chance.

Yeah, yeah. Of course. OK.

That's great.

Bess, we're gonna go.

But we just got here. Yes, yes, we did.

But Robbie is very busy, and we've taken enough of his time.

I know, but Robbie is gonna drop us off on his way to the airport.

What's he got in there?

A bunch of fluff.

Fluff sells everything. Yeah.

Renata.

OK.

Gordon was OK?

Good.

Thank you.

Gordon's alright?

Feeder was full.

Already? Mmm.

Does someone else have a key? No.

Nathan.

Entering my place without a warrant. Bold.

He's not your cat.

Who was that?

That was Nathan Phelan, internal investigation bureau.

Yeah.

He went into your house. Maybe.

Why would he do that?

He's someone I used to know.

Alright, let's go find Stanley.

And the Irishman.

Here he is.

Hey.

What have you got here? Yeah, I'm sorry about that.

I ate before I came, so you know.

Well, we need you fighting fit for the ring, son.

Oh, that's one of my favourites, Mr. Mayor.

Hey, look, I was just wondering, I'm more of a lover than a fighter.

You know, if you put me in the ring, I'll just embarrass you, mate.

Yeah. Make you look silly.

Well, you might be right. But every slaughter needs its lamb.

And you know what? We all got worries, Irish.

I'm worried about finding real black opals

to replace my earrings because they're my signature, you see.

Nothing feels right without 'em.

I understand. I do understand.

Do you? Those are your thing.

Yeah. They were you.

Everyone saying they're so great. Yeah.

Dangling around your lobes the whole time.

They're just pieces of crap waving around in the wind.

Almost silly.

Listen to me.

I gave the Franks the name of the ratter,

the one who found Jonas.

So this little party, I don't know what you want from me.

You really think you're in a position to negotiate, don't you?

You really do.

Listen to me. You made fake opals, son.

Now that's a council matter...

but making me look like a fool, that's personal, Irish, yeah?

Like I'm old school. Eye for an eye.

In your case, ear for an ear.

Oi, mate, listen, listen, listen.

If the black opals weren't so bad,

he can find that there's much more of that...

Just the lobe.

Hey, listen to me. Listen to me. No, no, wait, wait, wait.

No earrings for you, Irish. No earrings for you.

You want pickle on this? Surprise me.

Ah, just the person I wanted to see.

Oh, yeah.

On the house, is it? Why would it be?

On account of that special sauce you dribbled all over it?

Mmm.

You burgers get better and better, Billie.

Oh, thank you, Dougie.

Walk with me.

Let's talk entrepreneur to entrepreneur.

Boys.

See, your trade is in pleasure. Mine is information.

My business is to keep an ear to the ground, you know,

so I know what's going on in my town.

Certain things have come to my attention.

I didn't realise that being a lady of the night included ratting.

Just letting you know you've been in my room, Doug.

Half the town's been in your room, Billie.

But now you work for me.

All of Jonas McGee's opals and his whole...

you bring to me, alright?

Starting tonight.

Why don't I tell you to shove it up your hole?

A word goes out, your son is the ratter.

And you know what we do with them.

Piss off.

Fine.

The Mayor. Mr. Mayor. He's leaving now.

What, as in right now? Yes, yes.

Where was my bloody heads up, Yuri?

This is it, Mr. Mayor. Shit.

Shit!

Don't disappoint me.

This is Robbie. I didn't answer. Call me, eh?

We had a deal, Robbie. Don't you dare leave town on me.

One job, Yuri. One job!

He was in a hurry to get to Sydney.

Tomorrow is his big day.

Sorry, Doug. You just missed him.

You tell him to turn that fucking plane around.

I told you before, you don't get to tell Robbie Inglis what to do.

He's a serious player. You're just the mayor of Little Town.

You and Pat been keeping secrets from each other?

Hey, Ray? I wouldn't do that in a marriage if I was you.

Take it from me. Been there three times.

You can't touch us, Doug. She's the law around here, not you.

I keep seeing him.

Wandering out there alone for days.

No water...

no food.

Lost.

Alone.

What do you think's after death, Miriam?

Nothing?

We, each of us,

are preparing for a life beyond flesh.

None of us are exempt from that.

I can't... I can't eat these.

Sit down.

Every Sunday for ten years,

you led us out to that tree in the desert,

letting us believe that he was still alive.

Careful. You're a liar! You're a fucking liar!

Even if that were true...

He sacrificed his son.

He sacrificed his son to prove his purpose.

I know what you did.

You buried him because he had what you wanted.

You know what you wanted, David.

You know.

Is this what you want?

Is that what you want, Miriam? You want to...

demean me?

Demean everything we have worked toward.

You're not a seer. You're a weak little man.

Should have been you left to rot out in that desert.

Mrs. Honeywell.

Oh. Oh!

Stanley, a word.

Outside. Not in front of mum.

Oh.

Let's talk to the neighbours.

We just spoke with your mum's neighbour.

She said you were with your mum at the hospital

the day that Jonas was killed.

You stayed with her all night.

Why didn't you tell us you had an alibi?

You're free to go.

He does not like you.

Mmm.

What do we do with the shoebox of cash?

She ruined his life.

And he's still rubbing her feet.

He can keep the money.

Do you want beautiful, healthy, glowing skin.

This new overnight sheet mask

will clarify and brighten your complexion

with an ultra low molecular weight collagen boost

that works while you sleep.

Now I know what you're thinking. How can my mask stay on overnight?

Well, this incredible product has patented cling technology,

so letting your skin smooth...

You sleep in all of that? To be presentable. What happened?

Oh, God. Nothing. Just don't step on it. Look.

OK. I saw something. It's been playing on a loop.

It's like every five minutes. It'll come back.

We finally have air conditioning, and all your dreams can come true.

The shoes as well.

Stay with me or not. Stay in your own room.

Sorry. That's probably better.

Do you want... OK. Yes!

This. OK. Her. That woman.

That woman was in Robbie Inglis's car when I pulled him over.

With an ultra low molecular weight.

Really?

Yes, but she didn't... She wasn't dressed like this.

And she didn't sound like this either.

It was like she was a different person, but that's her.

Simply apply in one easy step just before bed and in the morning...

That's weird, right?

Peel away your mask to reveal the new radiant glassy you.

I have used other masks before and it will never work like this.

Detective Lucic.

It's putting the beauty back in beauty sleep.

Stay there.

Got someone down Janice's mine. Really?

Said she has them. OK, I'll change.

Get a bed. Just get a, uh, I don't know...

Come stay with us for the...

Evening, Buchanan. What have you got?

Buchanan, are you with him?

Buchanan.

You good?

Anything you need.

Phone. ..for all your equipment needs.

Oh, my God. Rafiq.

Hedda.

What's all this then?

How many ways can one person fuck this town?

Oh, Jesus. Take it easy.

Talk to me, Hedda.

No, no, no. I'll tell you what's going to happen.

You're going to take this bitch down to the station,

you're gonna process her, and you're going to make sure

that everybody knows that she is the ratter, not my Kyle.

Hey, sweetheart. Hello.

Where's your mum, kid?

She's inside asleep. Ooh.

Nah, she's not sleeping, mate. She's working.

Got herself ready.

What are you talking about? She's on her way down to the pigpen.

So you need to get on that little bike of yours

and deliver a message to her from me.

You tell her if she so much as mentions my name,

you'll be an orphan before sunrise.

You got that?

I didn't know what else to do, honestly.

If Richter had taken me in, What would have happened to Rafiq?

Hmm.

And I knew that I could trust you both

not to let word get out that it was him.

Because I didn't want him to get the shit beaten out of him

like Kyle did.

How did you know Jonas had struck black opal?

He was a client, Ivan. Jonas was a client?

Yeah, the man needed to be held.

Everyone needs to be held every now and then.

Yeah, yeah. Yeah.

So he told you he had black opal?

No, but he paid me with it once. Oh, got it.

And you started ratting after that? I didn't want to hurt anyone.

I just wanted to make enough money to get the fuck out of here.

Get on a plane and go far, far away and start again.

Anyone else know about the black opal?

Uh...

The Irishman. Irishman?

Yeah, I had to sell anything that I found so...

What was the plan tonight?

He's missing. He's been missing since Sunday.

Someone put you up to it, didn't they?

Someone who got your name from the Irishman.

Someone who knows where he is, yeah?

I've got it.

And I don't think there's anything down there?

Down where?

I don't know where Jonas was getting his black from,

but it was definitely not down that mine.

Mum! Hey.

Alright.

Have a seat, mate.

They know.

We'll have a word with The Mayor, won't we, Ivan?

Ivan?

What was that? I'll go check.

Hey, would you get me a water when you're up?

Please.

Oh, no!

I'm gonna kill him.

I'm gonna fucking kill him.

Did he say why he wanted to speak so urgently with Robbie?

Why?

He said Robbie promised him shares in Kalingra.

Yeah. Something like that.

It's a shakedown. Shakedown.

We all know we're just shit on the soles of Robbie's shoes.

But Doug thinks he's equal. No, he's just...

He's never forgiven you for leaving his crew.

Where are you going?

Oh.

He killed our fuckin' dog. No, Ray, just, just...

Just dial it back. I will handle this.

I am the law around here. Give me the gun.

Give me the gun. Thank you.

It's open.

Ah, detective.

What a pleasant surprise.

There's been a robbery at the Golden View Motel.

You know about that?

So what, have you been transferred from homicide into burglary,

now have you?

Douglas? Careful, Narelle.

Give Billie her money back and leave her alone.

The only person who's stolen money around here is your boss.

Yeah.

We're still carrying his debt

from the bets that he made at the Iron Ring.

You ask him.

Transparency, it's always best. We both know you drugged me.

You sure you weren't just partying with Robbie?

Nah. Another fella who doesn't like paying his debts.

But all my bad debts get paid, detective.

One way or another.

See, we're reasonable people here,

but it's very hard to turn a blind eye when we see...

Oh.

Fucking...

Where are ya?

That's not a detective, that's a very naughty boy.

You think I'm threatened?

No one's above the law, detective. Not in my town.

If you wanna threaten me...

It's loaded.

Threaten me.

Isn't this fun?

Go on, pick it up. Pick it up, pick it up.

Touch it, pick it up, pick it up, pick it up.

Threaten me. You want to threaten me?

Come on, threaten me. Do you want to threaten me?

Threaten me.

Where's my coin?

Where is my coin?

Lydia, give him the fucking coin.

Open your mouth.

Open your mouth.

I've been keeping it nice and warm for you.

Thank you.

You're weak.

He's weak.

Go, Narelle. Get out of here.

What is that?

This? Mm-hm.

Ten dinar.

OK. It's yours?

It is now.

It was my son's.

My dad gave it to him for his 10th birthday.

Are you close with your dad?

No.

He's in prison.

He'll die in there.

A violent man.

The butcher bird.

Do you know what a butcher bird does to its prey?

Yeah. They stab, right? Yeah.

It impales them on a branch above its nest.

And it strips the flesh off.

Like a butcher.

Mm-hm.

There's this small town called Vukovar on the Danube,

and it's beside the Serbian border.

OK.

It was invaded by Bosnian Serb forces, '91. I was ten.

It was after the Croatians declared independence.

There was this Serbian commander.

His name is Joseph Lucic.

And they call him the butcher bird.

That's my dad.

The butcher bird.

Mmm.

You keep the coin. I keep the coin.

I don't have anything like that.

There's no record...

of anything.

No objects, no places.

No people.

There's nothing there.

It's just me.

I know what that's like. Mmm.

It's hard.

Yeah.

You do me a favour? Yeah, of course.

Next time you talk to Phelan, why don't you tell him I said hello?

Let's go.

And eunuchs made by men and eunuchs who have made themselves

so for the sake of the kingdom of Heaven.

For there are eunuchs made from their mother's womb

and eunuchs made by men and eunuchs.

Looks like you've been stewing in your own juices there,

Dougie boy.

Why don't you just fuck off, Patricia?

Oh.

I think you probably need a top up. Oh!

Oh.

Take a seat, Luc. It shouldn't take long.

It's very sloppy, Nathan.

Ivan...

I can explain if you just let me.

I don't have anyone else so I need you to answer the phone.

Oh.

Did you lose your special coin again?

Oh.

Did you lose your special boy again?
