Come on!

(NESIAN MYSTIK'S 'SUN GOES DOWN')

(DISTANT CHATTER)

- # Please don't leave me now.

# Kiss me till the sun goes down.

# Please don't leave me now.

# Kiss me till the sun goes down.

- # Goes down.
- # Goes down.

- # Goes down.
- # Goes down. #

- Welcome back, eh, Kiri.
Come to help with the mahi, eh?

- Ae, Auntie.
It is so good to be home.

- What about me, Auntie?
- Oh, and you too, I suppose.
- Oh, love you, Auntie.

- Yeah, about time someone
did some mahi around here.
- Oh, piss off, Bull.

(ALL LAUGH)

- AMIRIA: Mama, Mama.

- Ae, taku pepe?

- Nan wants to have a korero.
Kia tere.

- ALL: Oooh.

- Thank you, bub.

Aue. He momo no to kuia.

Come on. Let's go find out
what she wants.

- Yeah, hopefully she gives you
a good old rark-up too.

- What did you say?

- Kore. Nah, nothing. I'm gonna...

- (CHUCKLES SMUGLY)

Hoo-hoo.

Aue, who's that handsome fulla?

- Papa!
- How are you?

- Good.
- (LAUGHS)

- Pooh, you smell like smoke.

- You been smoking again?
- Kao.

I've just been, uh, standing at the
hangi pit this... uh, whole time.

- Better not have been.

- Where are my
two favourite girls off to?

- Off to see Nan.
She wants to have a korero with me.

- Aue. Kua aha koe inaianei?

- Oh, it could be anything.
You know what she's like ―

always on my case about something.

- Oh well, kia kaha ra. (CHUCKLES)

- Teka! You have totally
been smoking, you liar.

- Hey, this is the smell of mahi.

- (GROWLS) Whatever.
- At the hangi! (GIGGLES)

- Hey, whatever, Dad. Eh?

(PLAYFUL CHATTER IN DISTANCE)

- Nan, look, I found her.
- (LAUGHS WARMLY)

Tena koe, taku mokopuna.

Ana, ana.
(RUSTLING)

Anei.

You go and share those
with your cousins, eh.
- Ae.

- Kotiro, use your manners.

- Kia ora, Nan.

- CHUCKLES: Oh, Nan.

Kati. Stop giving her lollies.
- Oh, shush.

(INHALES)

(SIGHS) Oh, I've been
thinking a lot, Kirimaia ―

about the battles on the horizon
that we need to be ready for.

- (CHUCKLES) Nan.

It's your birthday.

Can we not talk about battles,
please?

Just for one day.

- I know I ask a lot,

engari he take tonu.

- Ae, kei te mohio au, Nan.

You've been telling me
since I was a child.

My tupuna are watching
over me, but...

- Pono te korero.

How can you go forward if you
close your ears to the past, hm?

We have decided that you
will continue your studies
abroad in London.

You and your whanau will live there
until it is time to hoki mai.

- He aha?

Nan.

I did my law degree
like I was instructed to do.

I left Amiria here with you
like I was instructed to.

I've done everything you've asked
of me. I followed the plan.

And now what? No, no.
You want me to move to London?!

- I'm not asking you, bub.
I'm telling you.

Ka haere koe.

You will go over there,
and you will learn their ways.

You will keep your friends close
and your enemies closer.

London will teach you
how to do that

and to make you into the formidable
lawyer I know you to be.

- Te taea.
I won't up and leave my life, Nan.

What about Matiu? What about Amiria?

- Ka taea. That man will do
whatever you ask him.

And as for my mokopuna,
she'll be good.

Everything is already in place.

- What about John Boy?

Have you run this past him?
- Kaua e mahara ki a ia.

We know what's best for you.

(EERIE MUSIC)

- UNCLE BULL: So, how long
you guys back for, my bro?
- Mo ake tonu.

Kiri and John Boy got
some big ideas for this place.

- Those two men ― peas in a pod,
old Nan's little minions.

- The hapu's saviours.
'Hei oranga mo tatou.'

- Oh, they're all shit, ea.
- (CHUCKLES)

- What about you, though, my bro?
Where do you fit in?

- Nah, I've actually gotten
my design business set up.

It's going really well.
I've got a few key clients.

- Fuiii. Brains and beauty,
eh, my bro. Brains and beauty,
you ugly can of beef.

- That's the one. Oi, cousin John!
- Hey, less hui, more do-ey,
you two. (CHUCKLES)

- John Boy.
(BOTH INHALE DEEPLY)

- Oosh. There he is ―
the man, the myth, the patero.

Where you been, bro?
- Oh, you know ― council hui. The
one you were supposed to turn

- Oh, that was today?
- Mm.

- Yeah, nah, I had to get...
- (LAUGHS)

- Kei te pai.
Yeah, nah, I took some notes.
I'll send them through to you.

- Hopefully it's in Braille.
(LAUGHTER)

- Matty-boy, didn't know you fullas
were turning up so soon.

- Yeah, well, you know, when Nan
says kia tere, we haul arse.

- Ae. Nan's got Kiri on a bit
of a tight leash now.

- You too, cuz. We were just
talking about you and Kiri
taking over the world ―

moving the hapu into a new era.
- Yep, if anyone can do it,
it's you, my cuz.

- Yeah, nah,
it's pretty exciting, eh.

Been waiting a long time for
you fullas to come home, you know,
so we can get the ball rol

Where is that egg, anyway?

- Oh, she's gone
for a korero with Nan.

Better go save her, eh.
- Sounds about right.

She's probably planned out
both your fullas' features, eh.
- (CHUCKLES)

- And your afterlife.
- Oh!
(LAUGHTER)

- Nah, nah, happy birthday, Nan.
Ra whanau, ra whanau.

- All love. I'll go suss Kiri,
and then I'll come back and
give you fullas a hand, eh.

- Tssh, bro, kua oti ke.
What are you talking about?

- Nah, te anga nei, bro ―
bit of a bulge.

- On your bike, brother,
on your bike.

(CAR APPROACHES, LOUD MUSIC PLAYS)

(TYRES SQUEAL)
- Ko wai tera?

- I think that's the bro Stephen.

Oh, I mean Tipene. He's one of
those mana muncher types, you know?

I think his whanau's
from over the ways, or...

His old man and Nan had a raru
back in the day, and he stopped
coming down.

But old Tipene-rakau always seems
to weasel his way into a kaupapa.

Oh well, come on, Matty-boy.
Kati te makarauna, that's us ―
back to mahi, eh.

That the one, that the one.

- Straight up. I feel like
there's a parallel dimension

that sometimes if they want
to come visit us, they can.

Or even if you want to think of it
as in a tikanga sense,

it's like their duty to come back
and help us, eh.

- You know, you might be
on to something ―

your nan's always talking
about our tupuna walking
with us and guiding us.

- Ana. Yes, ow! Yes.
And you know what else?

- It doesn't look like much mahi
being done round here, gentlemen.

- Chur, Stephen ― the man,
the myth, the paterotero.

Just in time not to help out
with the mahi, bro.

- You know, I'm more of a supervisor.
- Yeah, 'course you are.

'Yeah, I'm more of a supervisor.'
You're shit.

- Kia ora, bro. Ko Matiu au.

- Yeah, I know.

Kiri's man, ne?
- Ae.

- And that little girl that's hanging
out with Nanny Raumati ― she's yours?

- That's our little pa girl ―
always at her Nan's side.

- Oh, so you're the dad?

It's nice to finally meet you.
Haven't seen you around here.
- Oh, we just moved back.

Are you from here, bro?
- Here?

(LAUGHS) No, no, no, no. No, distant
whanau from... over the way.

But I'm trying
to reconnect the hapu ―

right some past wrongs.
- Mean.

Yeah, well, we just got back from―
- Anyway.

This smoke smell's... intense,
so I might go and do the rounds.

Catch you later, Mel.
- Matiu.

It's Matiu, bro.

(CHILDREN CHATTER IN DISTANCE)

- Why now?

- KORO JOE: Kia kaua tatou
e kowhiri i te ara...

me hikoi noa i te ara,

ko te maia

me te mauri tau hei hoa haere.

(SOFT, PENSIVE MUSIC)

- How's it?

Heard you and Nan were having a bit
of a korero, so I thought you might
be in your favourite hi

(CHUCKLES)

How bad was it?

(CHUCKLES)

- Did you know about this plan too?

- What? Nah.

You know Nan.

I'm kaimahi ― no strategist. Just do
what I'm told, like you. (CHUCKLES)

- Koia.

It's her plan.

She wants me to move to London.

It's so much.

It's like...

I live this life ―

a life I did not choose.

A life I don't want.

- If we don't step up,
who will? Yeah?

I...

I never wanted to be
no leader for the whanau, eh.

But I had to learn that it was
my duty. (CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

We're sowing the seeds,
the kakano for the future.

Even if we don't get to see
the fruits ourselves.

- But it's still hard.

I don't want to be this person
that people want me to be.

I just...

Oh, I just feel so stuck.

- Same.

(SOFT, REFLECTIVE MUSIC)

- (EXHALES)

Come on.
- Yeah. (CHUCKLES)

- Let's go get ready, eh.
- (CHUCKLES)

Yeah.

Chuck on some nice clothes, eh.

I'll put a jacket on, eh.
It's getting a bit cold.
- (CHUCKLES)

(PENSIVE MUSIC)

- Ae, ranei...

kaore he ara i tua atu?

- AUNTIE HUIA:
Kua tae te wa ki a raua.

- Ko au ranei.

- KORO JOE: Kaore koe i tohua.

- Mena ka takahi au i te tohu?

(EERIE MUSIC)

Tena.

Kia mohio mai korua.

Ki te rongo au,

kua he taua tohu,

ka noho nama mai ki a au.

Hei taua wa,

me whakaea i taku mamae,

me whai utu.

(LOW, TENSE MUSIC)

(JOHN BOY RAPS TABLE)

- JOHN BOY: Kia ora e te whanau.
Me karakia tatou. E tu.

Nau mai e nga hua o te wao,
o te ngakina, o te wai tai,
o te wai Maori.

Na Rongo, Na Tane,
Na Tangaroa, Na Maru.

Ko Ranginui e tu nei.

Taku manawa makoha.
- (CHUCKLES)

- I love you so much.
- Aww.

Chur. Ka nui taku aroha
ki a koe hoki.

Hey. E kai.

Sit. Eat. Enjoy your evening.

(OVERLAPPING CHATTER)

- London?
- Yeah.

- What did you say?

- Karekau.

I wanted to run it past you first,
see what you thought.

- London could be cool.

- Yeah, but about our plans?
- We can adapt.

And also, this place is always gonna
be here for us to come home to. Hm?

- (SIGHS)

(TIPENE CHUCKLES)

- Anei.
- Tena koe.

- Why don't you take your food
over there, my darling?

- Happy birthday, Whaea Raumati.
This place scrubs up well.

- Piss off, Stephen.

- Let's go.

- What?
- Let's go.

Let's move to London.

- Are you serious?
- (CHUCKLES) Yeah, I think so.

(BOTH LAUGH)

- Chur. Up to, Ti-pe-ne?

- Hanging out by the bins again?

- (CHUCKLES)
- Jeez. (INHALES DEEPLY)

You and your whanau think
you're so neat.

- Bro, he aha to mate?

- I'm gonna find those deeds,
John Boy. I know your nan has them.

And you know my whanau
has a right to this whenua.

- You don't know what the hell
you're talking about, Stephen.

Think you can handle
the responsibility that
comes with this whenua?

You want power, control.

But you have no idea
what's best for our people.

- Oh, and you do (?)
You're just a lackey.

I mean, no one respects you.
Look at you. You're just the help.

You give me what I need, and I'll
let everything stay the same.

Why's that?
- Nah, nah, I just...

got a feeling.

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC CONTINUES)

Nan, you shouldn't be out here
without a coat.

- Nan, why do you look so sad
on your birthday?

- I'm not sad, bub.

I'm just thinking about
how strong our whanau is

and the strength needed to bind us
in this world and the next.

(INHALES SHARPLY) Aue...
