[MOANS SOFTLY]

[MACHINERY WHIRRS LOUDLY]

Have you consumed this alcohol primarily whilst alone

or in a social setting?

Alone.

Have you regained contact with family and friends

since your release?

Some.

Have you been made aware of the various support programmes

that are available to you since the commencement of your parole?

Yes.

Okay...

I need you to sign down the bottom there.

By signing this, you acknowledge

that the information you have provided is true and accurate.

Okay...

Now there are a couple of other issues we need to discuss.

I'm aware that you failed to attend

a grief counselling session on the 25th...

is there any particular reason

why you didn't make that appointment?

I had to work overtime that day.

Okay...

It's not compulsory for you to attend those sessions,

but we recommend that you do.

And given your loss, prior to your offending,

I think it's wise that you continue with those sessions.

And in the sense of making a positive case

to the parole board,

I think it's important that you stick to it.

I wanted to go. I couldn't get away.

Yeah, nah, nah, that's fine.

In regards to your employment...

Matt Evans called a couple of days ago...

and he said that they're looking at downsizing at the factory.

Which basically means they've had to let go of a few men.

And since you're the least experienced on their roster,

they've decided to let you go.

Okay, now I know that the timing's not ideal...

but the return to work scheme

doesn't always guarantee you a job with the same employer

after your release.

So the shift that you did today

was actually your last with them.

Your final pay will come through sometime next week.

How many people are they letting go?

I don't know. He didn't say. I didn't ask.

I just know that they let you go.

Now...

I had a read of some of Ian's handover notes

from your meetings with him.

And one of the things I took from that,

is that you're keen to try something "different"...

something other than the work that you're doing at the moment.

Yeah.

I know this is our first meeting...

but I'm gonna be completely honest with you, Jack.

Given the violent nature of your crime,

and the length of your sentence...

You did 3 years reduced from 6...

Wounding with intent...

Grievous bodily harm, assault with a deadly weapon.

In a case that, without the compassion grounds,

could have easily been ruled attempted murder.

And we have to disclose all those details

to any potential employers.

So in the case of you actually getting the job that you want...

the one that you spoke to Ian about...

at least at this stage,

where you're currently sitting in your parole,

it's just not realistic.

I'd like to try.

I beg to differ on that one.

They won't even look at you.

If I show them your criminal history,

you won't even have a chance.

Okay...

One of the conditions of your parole

is that you have to be in employment

so that we can monitor and facilitate and allow and...

things like that.

So, the most important thing right now,

is for us to get you back into the workplace.

Alright?

Because once you have a job, you'll have a routine.

You'll have a place to be.

It will also give you that social contact that you need.

Okay?

I have some contacts...

And I'm pretty confident

I can get you something fairly quickly.

It may take a couple of weeks, and it'll be shift work...

so that's labouring, trades, that sort of stuff.

You okay with that?

- Yes. - Okay.

Purify me of my feelings of anger and resentment.

Give me the strength to forgive those that have done me wrong.

Dear God,

show me the right way to go.

Purify me of my feelings of anger and resentment.

Give me the strength to forgive those that have done me wrong.

[BIRDS CHIRP]

Hi, excuse me.

Just a question. Are you hiring at the moment?

WOMAN: I don't know, sorry. You'd have to talk to John.

And who's John?

He's the owner.

Uh... can you please tell me where can I find him?

He's away.

Will he come back?

Ah... yeah, I think he's back on Monday.

Do you know what time approximately, please?

Umm... he's usually in around 8.

I used to work at a supermarket.

- Yeah... - Oh...

It was nice.

- Thank you. - Bye.

See you. Bye.

- Hi. - Hi.

Are you hiring?

What kind of work you lookin' for?

Just anything.

Talk to Barry.

Hi.

I was just asking, are you hiring?

Oh, I'm sorry, I've got nothing.

What about the notice in town?

Oh, right, yeah, yeah... oh, like I said, you know,

I'm sorry, I can't help ya.

Okay?

Sorry...

I don't understand.

I thought you had a job going?

Yeah, it's like I said, I can't help ya. Sorry.

What do you mean you can't help me?

Do you have a job going or not?

Look, ah...

It's...

It's, it's, it's just not a job you'd be good at.

I'm sorry. Alright?

You don't even know me.

Look...

It's a physical job, it's a manual job.

It wouldn't suit you!

- How ya going? - Hey...

Could I get some fish, please?

Just two of those pieces of salmon. Yep.

It's Jack, right?

I almost didn't recognise you. Look at you.

You're still skinny.

You're Jack, right?

Can I just get the fish?

I don't blame you for what you did, you know.

That drunk, he should've been locked up

for what he did to her,

leaving her on the road like that, suffering...

Can I just get the fish?!

He deserved to be locked up, Jack.

He shouldn't have left her there on that road...

suffering like that. He shouldn't have.

[PANTS]

[WIND BLOWS]

[RAIN PATTERS]

Are you okay?

Sorry.

Why?

The fish.

It's really dry.

And the sauce tastes...

really weird.

The beans are really nice.

But the fish...

it's bad, right?

I really like the beans.

And...

yeah, the fish tastes kind of weird.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

But the beans are really nice.

- But you like the beans? - I love the beans.

[GRACE LAUGHS]

[RAIN PATTERS]

I like you.

David, it's Grace.

I'd like to see Sean.

David, please, I don't want to fight with you...

I just want to see my son.

Don't you talk to me like that anymore.

You should've brought him to visit me.

Yes we did.

I know what my rights are.

I want to see my son.

I don't care.

I want to see my son.

Yes.

And we'll see you later.

Alright.

You right, Sean?

Bye-bye, darling.

Okay.

Should we go?

Okay.

I made you something.

A present.
