I'm walking

Understand that you will never, ever be alone

Lost and lonely Lost and lonely

Till you found me Till you found me

And now you're giving me everything, yeah

Teach me to find love

Take my hand and walk me home

Reach out for my love

Understand that you will never be alone.

Come on!

MAN: Aboriginal of the Year?

Just making the shortlist is a huge honour, seriously.

Redfern, born and bred.

The older I get, the more it means to me.

I'll die here.

MAN: You know you're a pretty hot favourite, Ray.

Oh! I don't expect to win.

Have you seen the competition? Full on, yeah.

Everyone on the list deserves it.

There's no shame finishing behind any one of them, you know?

Oh, beautiful.

Here, anyone want a sausage?

Gourmet chicken sausages.

Got 'em from the bloody butcher down the road.

Halal, wasn't it?

(Laughter) Yeah.

Yeah.

(Camera clicks)

(Camera clicks)

Morning, boys. 'Morning, Dad.'

Morning, my black beauties. Morning.

Here. Look here. Hey!

Have you seen my footy bag, babe?

Yeah, where you left it. Oh.

Hang on. You're not coming with me and the boys?

Shame job! Jade!

Oh, Barb.

I told you, I'm not doing it again.

Nah, they're right.

See ya, boys. 'Yeah, see ya, Dad.'

(Car horn toots, camera clicks)

G'day!

(Camera clicks)

Hey, big fella. Got any shrapnel?

No, sorry, brother. Busted. Hey, try me again tomorrow.

You said that yesterday!

I'll be waiting for you here tomorrow , brother.

And a final reminder follows.

We need to check all referrals when the lads come out of jail.

Make sure all the boxes are ticked.

Parole info, rehab, accommodation - you name it, you get it.

I keep getting calls from Corrections,

and that's not how I wanna spend my day.

And whoever's running men's group this week,

can you please make sure there's a follow-up during the week?

We need to be consistent.

No use opening a can of worms if we can't help the lads sort it out.

Hmm? Oh, one more thing, Derek.

It's Ian's last day today, so you might wanna ask him to come in

and we'll get a cake or something for him.

What do you reckon?

It's already done. He'll be in at three.

OK, fellas. Let's get to work.

MAN: Yeah, back to work.

Big noter!

(Laughter)

You right, Ray?

Yeah, fine, Derek.

You gonna go for that other job at work, bred, or what?

That's due Monday, eh?

I was thinking I might chuck in for it too, you know.

Have a real crack at it. What - you're gonna go for it?

Don't you think I'd be in with a chance?

No, Charlie. It's a big step up, that's all.

Oh, really? Thanks, Ray(!)

I didn't know I was so far down the ladder.

I'm not saying that, Charlie.

No, go for it, bro. Have a crack.

(Laughs) Piss off! You have another?

Nah, you're right. What do you mean?

No... Have another, you lightweight!

No, seriously, bro. You buy me one, I'm gonna have to buy you one back.

So, that's another two...

No, you don't have to buy me one back.

I know you, Charlie.

I'm telling you, dickhead. You don't have to buy me one back.

I know how you get your money, bro.

What's that supposed to mean?

I'm not criticising you, bro.

It's just I don't want to benefit from what you do.

From what I do?

Hey, people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

Yeah, two beers, thanks.

(Ballad plays on stereo)

(Camera clicks)

What you doing, woman?

There's this man in a car across the street.

What man?

He's been there all night.

Dempsey? Dempsey!

What?

Go out the front there and grab them gammin letters out of the letterbox.

Hurry up! Quick!

(Camera clicks)

Stay inside!

What the hell do you think you're doing?!

Hey?!

MAN: Fuck off! Open the door!

Open the fucking door! What are you taking photos of my kids for?!

Eh?! WOMAN: Hey!

Alright, alright! Just... Just doing my job!

What job?!

I'm a private investigator! A what?!

Look, Centrelink have hired me.

They want me to take photographs of your house and your family!

Why?!

Look, all I know is Centrelink must be investigating your family, OK?

I just take the photos! That's all I know!

(Growls)

You want a photo? Here!

That's full-on! Private investigator taking bloody pictures.

How long he been doing it, Ray?

Ray! I don't know!

Jesus, woman! Can you let a bloke think?

(Knocking at door)

Sorry, Ray. You're kidding, aren't you?

No, you gotta come in, mate. Criminal damage.

You know what that bastard does for a living?!

Ray, I realise that, but you still gotta come in.

Well, can I get changed? Of course you can.

Lorraine, we won't keep him long, OK?

Yeah.

Remember what I told you? Don't give 'em nothing, right?

That woman never said they had any evidence on the phone, did she?

Did she? I don't know! I can't remember.

I know how it works. Just say what we talked about.

Don't go in there and cave in like you always do.

We haven't done anything wrong. Oh, Jesus, Ray!

You're stressing me out! Just let me get in there.

Hey, hey.

Look here. You'll be fine, alright?

OK?

They got nothing on us, babe. Nothing.

I love you, OK? That's all you need to know.

OK.

What's that? Evidence.

Before we proceed with the interview, I'm obliged to tell you

that I'll be asking you questions in regard to this allegation.

You're not required to answer any of my questions

or participate in this interview unless you wish to do so,

however, if you choose to proceed,

anything you say or do will be recorded and may be used in evidence.

Do you understand this caution? Yes.

Mr Raymond Blake is the father of your four children, is that correct?

Yes.

But he doesn't live with you?

He doesn't contribute to the maintenance of the children

in any way whatsoever?

And for the last five years,

you've claimed to be living alone with your children.

Is that correct? Yes.

Miss Tenner, we received information

that you have been living with Mr Blake seven days a week.

And we now have photographs

of Mr Raymond Blake entering your home in the early evening

and leaving the following morning.

And doing so on a full-time basis over a period of time.

Conclusive evidence of you living as domestic partners.

Miss Tenner, this is very serious.

The case will be referred to the DPP for further investigation,

and they may choose to take it to court.

Which means you could possibly face a jail term.

Have you, um, got a toilet I can use?

We had a row, he walked out,

I started claiming as a a single mother.

He came back and I didn't change it.

You get used to it, the money - the extra money, that is.

We grew up hungry, always hungry, and I didn't want that for the kids.

I promised myself the fridge would always be full.

You know, none of it went on me.

OK, you know, maybe one night out a week, but that was it.

It always went on the kids. Always on the kids!

Anything else?

Yeah, Raymond's up for Indigenous Leader of the Year Award,

and if this got out...

It won't.

These processes take time,

but while they're being investigated, they're entirely confidential.

Is there anything I can do?

We can start you on a plan to repay the $60,000 you were overpaid.

What?

$60,000.

If the case goes to court,

the fact that you're working with us on a repayment plan

would be taken into account.

Have a think about it.

We'll need to know how you'd like to proceed

by the close of business on Monday.

How'd it go, babe? OK?

Just give me a minute, will you?

What happened? Nothing.

What? You said they'd have nothing.

They got a file like that!

They know everything about you, your job, you living with me.

It's all there, black and white. How?

Someone dobbed us in, of course. What?!

I just wanna go home, Ray.

They still got nothing on us, though, right?

$60,000?! I'm gonna find out who dobbed us in!

Oh, what good's that gonna do, Ray?

It'll prove you don't go around dogging people out,

that's what it'll do!

Oh, and then what? And then I'll flog 'em!

And go to jail again? You know what we do? We do nothing!

Put our head down, and work and pay it all back.

$60,000!

Yes! Don't you get it? We got caught 'cause we got greedy.

Greedy?! We got greedy!

Are you kidding me?!

Mum, why do we have to go to Bourke again this holidays?

Why can't we go to Noosa?

Because it's home! That's what we do! (Sighs)

No-one's going anywhere. Why not?

Tell her, Raymond. Because we got no fucking money!

Ray... Arggh! I hate my life!

(Door slams)

Look, I don't make the rules, mate, but I do have to follow 'em.

You right, Ray?

Yeah, yeah. Look, can I call you back this afternoon some time?

Cheers. Thanks.

What did you mean by that there?

Making coffee. You want one? Shove your coffee!

What was that supposed to mean?

What was what?

You walk right past me and you said, 'Are you right, Ray?'

Well, I guess it means 'are you alright?'

Really? Yeah, really.

Yeah, I'm sure it does.

Something bothering you today, Ray?

See that there?

Now, why would you say that unless you knew something, eh?

Do you, Derek, you piece of shit?! Hey, Ray, calm down!

Don't tell me to calm down!

Seriously. I don't know what your problem is, man...

My problem?

You'll have to get up earlier than that there, bro, to pull one over me.

I know you know what I'm talking about!

Whatever your problem is, it's got fuck-all to do with me!

Your shit is your shit! Don't go putting it onto me!

Ray!

Unbelievable.

You got something to tell me? Nah.

You sure? Yeah.

Ray, I know all about it. I wanna hear it from you.

I don't know what you're talking about, Peter.

You couldn't have been drunk, not at that hour.

You've totally lost me now, Peter.

You smashed some poor bastard's car with the poor bastard still in it.

Oh, that. 'Oh, that.'

'Oh, that' is gonna get you suspended, you idiot.

What?!

Yeah, well, I got no choice. It's a criminal charge.

You know as well as I do you can't work with offenders post-release

with charges pending - you know that.

Alright. Don't do this, Peter.

It's out of my hands!

Even if I could, Ray, it's bloody 101.

Well, what about the promotion?

Let's hope they don't find out about the charges.

Shut the door on your way out.

(Door slams)

(Gate slams) Oh, Jesus!

What you doing here? What's wrong?

Guts.

How come you're home so early?

(Sighs) I got suspended.

Oh, what? Ray!

What for? For smashing that bastard's car!

Suspended? Not sacked? Suspended?

Yeah.

With or without pay?

With or without pay?! Without.

How long will that suspension last, do you think?

(Sighs) Till I go to court.

What happens then?

You're up for the big award, Ray. Could they sack you?

I don't know.

Well, it's not like we haven't been through worse.

Just put our head down and we'll get through this.

We've got payments coming in, we're ahead of most of the bills.

We've just gotta cut out all luxury. What - like food?

Like grog.

All this because some arsehole dobbed us in.

You know, it grates on me,

to know that someone can walk up to you on the street

and fuck your life up in an instant

and walk away like they were never even there.

They say it's usually the person closest to you

that'll betray you the most.

Person you least expect.

I don't even shake any more weighing this stuff, bred.

Tell me, Charlie, what would you do if someone went to the coppers

and wrote up a statement about you dealing drugs

and then they come around and busted you?

What would you do? Kill 'em. No question.

I'd hunt 'em down and I'd kill 'em like the dog they are.

There ain't no man on this earth

that doesn't push a little here and push a little there

just to make life easier.

It's about getting some breathing space!

But to bring a man down just because you can...

Dog eat, bro. Snoop Doggy! (Howls)

(Laughs) That's a wolf, bro.

Well, they're dogs too, fuck you.

WOMAN: So, you're happy to continue with writing up a repayment plan?

Mm-hm. Yep.

Here's an agreement with all the details.

If you're happy with it, sign it,

and the rest of the paperwork will be sent out within five working days.

And just here.

You're doing the right thing. Thank you, Miss Tenner.

And good luck at the awards tonight.

Thank you.

You look deadly tonight, woman. You still wanna do this?

Are you kidding me? Here, photo opportunity, three o'clock.

Here, we've got to get a lift with Charlie, eh? Can't afford no taxi.

Man, I'm going foot Falcon.

Hey, there's Charlie and Alita.

You better win tonight, my brother. Got a bottle of Jack riding on it.

Oh, just the one, brother? (Laughter)

Hey, bred, you owe me that bottle.

Yeah, sure I do, Charlie.

Peter.

MAN, ON TANNOY: Ladies and gentlemen,

could you please take your seats, thank you.

Let me be the first to welcome you

to the Sydney Indigenous Leadership Awards.

Give yourselves a round of applause!

(Cheering and applause)

Welcome, ladies and gentlemen,

uncles, aunties, brothers and sisters, cousins,

nephews and nieces, and anybody else I'm related to here this evening.

(Cheering) Great to see you all.

Now, tonight, folks, would not be possible

without the tireless community work that you do.

All the hours spent on the phone on weekends and late at night,

all that money that you give away

and hopefully you get back on payday.

(Laughter) MAN: Well said!

Not to mention all that time spent away from your own family

looking after other people's families.

Because leadership is about

empowering others to live a purposeful life.

So, give yourselves a round of applause.

(Applause)

So, enough from me, enough of that officialdom.

Let's hand out some awards, shall we?

(Cheering and applause)

The Youth Services Award goes to Kylie Donohue.

(Cheering and applause)

Tonight Kylie is being recognised

for her work and support for the children of Redfern.

Thank you all so much. It's such a privilege to be here tonight.

This one's for the kids of Redfern.

(Cheering and applause)

How you going, brothers? How you doing?

Hey, brother!

Here we go.

Drinks. Oh, here we go.

Cheers. Cheers, bred. Cheers.

What's that about?

Probably about the job. Big noter, see?

What job?

Oh, what?

I thought you knew, bred.

How am I supposed to know, Charlie? I'm on suspension, remember?

Peter announced it at work this arvo.

You right there, Ray?

Yeah, good, thanks. Evening, all.

Evening.

Ray! Is he alright?

Nah, he's fine, he's fine.

(Women laugh)

(Door creaks)

(Charlie laughs, speaks indistinctly)

(Laughter)

Yeah, it's over 22. Oh!

So, boys, who you reckon's gonna win the big one tonight?

MAN: My money's on the old fella from the AMS.

Hey, they'd better hurry up. He's old, that fella.

(Laughter) So, who do you reckon, Charlie?

Oh, I don't know. It's tough, eh?

Nah, fuck that, bro. You reckon your man Ray.

Ray? To win? Oh!

Hate to say it, boys, but I reckon the old fella too.

You know, with everything going on, I reckon he's lost ground.

I heard all about that. What's going on there?

His missus got done for fraud, isn't it?

Because of him, they gotta pay back 60 grand.

60Gs! Imagine that!

I told him, 'Don't fuck around with Centrelink, bro. They'll catch you.'

Hey, the boys, they reckon he'll lose his job and all over it.

You reckon he will, cuz?

Even if he loses it, he'll bounce back to the top.

He's arsey like that! Always lands on his feet.

Well, if you ask me, he needs taking down a peg or two, your old man Ray.

Bull up! That's my brother you're talking about.

Hey, go away, Charlie! (Laughs)

(Laughter)

Maybe he could do with coming down a peg or two.

He's got that God complex about him, you know, eh?

Always thinks he's better than everybody else. Mr Kingpin.

(Toilet flushes)

Ray! Listen, Ray.

OK, look, I am the fat bastard

who runs his mates down behind their back,

I'm the bloke who follows the crowd.

I do stupid shit all the time, Ray!

But I was just playing up for the boys, Ray, honest.

I'm sorry.

How long has everyone known?

What?

You heard me!

I don't know, Ray. Honest.

Why didn't you tell me, bro? Tell you what?

'Cause here we were, Lorraine and I,

thinking the only saving grace out of this whole pile of shit

was it wouldn't get out!

We wouldn't become the laughing stock of Redfern,

but fuck me, was I wrong!

I had nothing to do with that, Ray. Yeah, you did.

Ray, come on. I don't give a fuck, bro.

You come at me, but you come at my family...

What are you saying, bred?

I'm saying, Charlie, people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

What? That's what you said to me, bro.

Oh, for crying out loud, Ray!

You know, the other night, Lorraine and I were in bed,

and she says to me,

'It's the one person you least expected who'll betray you the most.'

Not playing this game, Ray.

I need to know, Charlie.

Did you dob me and Lorraine into Centrelink?!

I've been a lot of things, bred, but a dog, Ray? Fuck you!

Is that why you're walking away, Charlie? Truth hurts, eh?

Truth hurts, Charlie! That's why you're walking away!

(Cheering and applause)

Where's Ray?

Ray! Ray! You've won!

They're calling your name.

Baby, you won.

Come on, hurry up.

Ah, there he is.

Once again, ladies and gentlemen,

Sydney Indigenous Leader of the Year, Mr Raymond Blake.

(Cheering and applause)

Well done, Ray.

No-one deserves this more than you do.

Really, Pete? Not even Derek, mate?

WOMAN, ON TANNOY: He's spent most of his life in Redfern.

Having a history of incarceration and a youth of trouble,

Raymond managed to turn his life around

to become a perfect example of a proud Aboriginal man.

Raymond's also been an integral member

of the Redfern's Men's Mentors Football Club,

a club which allows younger men

to play against their older role models,

teaching them good sportsmanship and aptitude.

Tonight, Raymond Herman Blake

is awarded the Aboriginal Man's Leader of the Year Award

for his commitment to fighting recidivism,

and his work with men in his community.

Tonight's award is one of the highest honours

in community leadership in the city of Sydney.

Congratulations, Raymond Herman Blake.

(Cheering and applause)

Thanks.

First, I'd like to pay respect

to the traditional owners of the land where we are today,

the Gadigal people.

Well, I wasn't expecting this, you know.

Yeah, you did! (Laughter)

I enjoy what I do.

Sorry. I love what I do.

Working with the men we work with,

you get heaps more back than what you put in, you know?

Community work kind of saved me from going in and out of jail, you know?

It gave me a purpose, a reason to work.

My old man, bless him, he'd be pretty moved tonight.

I can't do this.

Come on, big Ray! MAN: Yeah, big fella!

See, I can't pretend, like a lot of you people out there.

It seems a lot of you fellas out there,

you know a lot about me and my missus,

about our situation, our circumstance.

Call it what you will.

Fraud! There you go.

The big fucking elephant in the room.

But you know what gets my back up?

Is that someone dobbed us in.

Maybe someone in this room, and that's a dog act there.

You know us blackfellas, we're never satisfied, eh?

Unless we're tearing someone else down, are we, eh?

MAN: Oh, fuck off! No, you fuck off, bro!

You all sit out there in your own perfect little worlds,

bitching and moaning about this one and that one,

like you're better than anyone else!

Like you're so righteous or some shit! Well, you're not!

We're not! I'm not! We got caught!

We got greedy, like my beautiful wife Lorraine says,

but you know something?

At least I can stand here tonight with this award and my own shit.

You got something to say to me, you come say it to my face.

Don't be a dog, like some people.

Don't run me down behind my back.

And know this.

Before you go judging me and my family,

have a look at your own backyards,

and stop running your own people down.

Stand with each other and beside each other.

We're blackfellas.

We're supposed to be one!

One blood.

Thanks.

(Applause)

Ray, where you going? Going home, Lorraine.

Ray, don't do this!

If you're worried about a taxi, there's 20 bucks!

Or you can get a lift from my best mate and his woman!

(Ray slurs) Another one! MAN: Yeah, see you later, bro.

Oi! Another one there.

Ray, I think you've had enough.

Am I drunk?

Time to go home.

I'm asking, really. Am I drunk?

Ray, come on! Give me a break here.

Give me another beer!

Alright, fine.

I'm going.

No-one's getting this.

Night, Ray. Yeah!

Charlie!

Open up, fuck you!

Charlie, come on!

Charlie! It's me, Ray!

Come on, bro!

Come on! I said I'm sorry!

I've phoned the police. Oh, piss off!

Charlie!

Go home!

Oh, who the hell are you? Mind your own business.

My name is Jill, is who the hell I am,

and you woke me up, so now you are my business!

Can you fuck off, Jill?

Charlie! Come on, bro!

I said I'm sorry, brother. Open up! We need to talk!

Come on, Charlie.

Let me in, brother. Please! We need to talk.

Charlie!

Gunjabulls. Whatever.

Hey, you want a lift home there, Ray?

No, thank you. I'm good.

Come on! No, no, hey! Hey!

Leave me alone, seriously.

Hey, hey, come on, Ray. Don't make this bad situation worse, eh?

What? Come on, Ray.

No, no, no, why don't you just... Come on, Ray.

Don't make this harder than it has to be. You know the drill.

That's right. I got court coming up, eh?

Some fella takes photos of me and my kids, and I get arrested.

Come on, son. Grab his arm.

Come on, eh? Come on there, Ray.

What are you doing? Leave me alone. Come on!

No, I don't wanna go! Get him in there, son!

Leave me alone! Come on, Ray! Just... Thank you!

Tell me to 'F' off!

Look here, boys!

Not today, fellas, sorry.

Here, look! You need this more than me, brother! (Laughs)

Look, boys! I just give money to the Koori of the Year!

True story, honest!

Morning, Ray. Did you get your bottle of Jack's?

I did, Ray, yeah.

Saw you laughing last night.

It was funny!

Did you dob us in, Frankie? Eh?!

(Sighs and tuts)

Nah, don't worry about it. I need the phone.

Walked in. Where's my mobile, babe?

Yeah, like nothing's happened.

Ray, they've stopped all our benefits, bar family allowance.

I didn't want to tell you yesterday

'cause I didn't want to spoil your big night,

but you went ahead and spoiled it anyway, didn't you?

Yeah, OK. Thanks, sis. For sure. Bye.

(Phone clunks in cradle, phone rings)

Don't answer it!

Hi, Mum. Yeah, so, you heard?

Tell her to ring back!

Yeah, good news travels fast.

Tell her to ring back, babe. Please!

Ray, I'm not telling my mum to ring back. Now, piss off!

No, Mum, don't tell everyone, please.

Ah, there it is.

Oh, well, she don't know. It's none of her business!

Yeah, Timmy. It's me, bro. Timmy, I need to meet up.

Who you talking to? None of your business!

Or else, look out. Yes. Yes, yes, I heard you!

OK, I'll see you then.

Who you talking to?

Well, it definitely wasn't your mother!

Are you screwing someone, Ray? Of course not!

It was bloody Timmy, your talented brother-in-law!

Bullshit! He works at Centrelink.

I'm going straight to the horse's mouth.

Don't you remember the shit he put us through?

Exactly! He owes us.

OK, so, he tells you who it was. Then what?

Lorraine, we've already been through this.

Oh, great! You'll make things worse.

You're already on charges, then suspended.

When's it gonna be enough, Ray?!

You better not be lying to me!

I can't do it. Can't or won't?

I won't. Jesus, Ray, I could lose my job just by meeting with you.

You start talking, Timmy.

No-one dobbed you in, so just pay the money back and move on.

Pay the money back?! Yeah!

We'll be paying it back for the rest of our lives!

And? Tell me who dobbed us in.

No-one!

At the very least, Timmy, tell me who it isn't,

'cause I'm blaming everyone!

Good mates, the blokes at work. It's driving me fucking crazy!

I can see that. You owe us!

Oh, I knew that'd come out eventually.

Timmy, I'm all out! I gotta go, Ray.

Timmy, Timmy! I've been arrested twice, right?

Lorraine's lost all of her money!

Tell me who's dobbed us in, 'cause you owe us!

Thank you, Ray, but I've done my dues for that shit.

Hey! Hey! I took a bullet, you fucking worm!

I've already told you, no-one dobbed you in!

How many times have I gotta say?!

Hey, hey, tell me who dobbed us in, you wannabe blackfella country rat,

or I'm gonna drag you by the ear hole

back to Taree where you fucking belong!

Sit down, Ray! OK? Just let me go!

Please?

Uh...

Mate... (Sighs)

(Speaks indistinctly)

Oh, you're gonna get me fired!

What - no 'Hey, sis, how you going?'

I can't get involved. You know that. Oh, really?

I reckon you already are. He didn't come home last night.

That is not my problem! It's another woman, isn't it?

Oh, why - 'cause you want it to be?!

This has got nothing to do with Centrelink. This is personal.

Some woman is fucking my man behind my back.

She deserves a flogging and I want to know her name!

I'm sorry, I promised Ray I'd keep this...

Timmy, you owe us!

Oh, oh, oh! Me! Me! What is wrong with you two?

(Knocks)

Charlie, come on. Open up, brother, please.

Is Charlie there? I need to speak to him.

CHILD: Over here!

CHARLIE: What do you want?

I'm sorry for accusing you, my brother.

I wasn't thinking straight.

I heard you in the bathroom there and I got wild.

I'm sorry, honest, bred.

Why are you here, Ray?

'Cause I found out. Who was it?

Some idiot.

So, what do you want me to do, Ray - say that I'm happy for you?

Tell me what to say, Charlie.

You know, Ray, I don't have a flash house, flash car.

I'm lucky I've got a job.

But what I do have is priceless to me.

No money in the world could take 'em away from me.

Charlie. Let me finish!

I was a prick last night. I own that. Fair enough.

But for you to think I could do something to you like that,

jeopardise everything you have...

I'm sorry, bro. WOMAN: Charlie!

What else can I say? Come and give me a hand!

You know, when you look at me, you see straight through me.

You do it to your family too. I've seen it.

And I know that you could lose everything, Ray,

with the way you're going.

You know what the worst thing about that is?

You wouldn't even know it.

Come on, boys. Let's go inside. Let's have a hot chocolate.

I love you, baby.

Ray! Is that you?

RAY: I was out of line the other night.

I've been out of order for a while.

I don't know where it went wrong.

Or how it went wrong.

Well, I do.

The point is I'm sorry, Pete.

I let you down. I let my family down.

I let Lorraine down.

When's your court dates?

Next month. How will you go?

Guilty. Guilty, you got no job.

Yeah, I know.

I can give you a heads-up.

What's that?

Derek Hammil? Derek, come in.

Are you serious? Yes, I am.

Derek Hammil?

It's your best option, Ray. (Sighs)

Your only option.

You go to court, you lose your job,

but at least you can come back to something, work under Derek.

Can't do it, Peter!

He knows?

We don't have to like each other, Ray.

Just respect each other, and I do. I respect you.

Stick it up your arse, along with your fucking respect!

One bottle of Jack!

Frankie! Fuck off!

What's that? Your stuff. You're leaving.

Anything else?

Why? You know why.

I've done nothing. Where the hell were you last night?

Park. Don't lie to me!

I'm not!

So, did Timmy pull our file?

Lorraine, please. Who you fucking, Ray?

Oh, for God's sake, woman!

If I'd have been with some slut,

don't you think I'd have suspected her straight away?

If I'd have been with some slut, why'd I go to Timmy?

Think about it! Then who was it?

Me! What?

Me. It was me.

That arsehole there.

Aboriginal of the Year.

Doing interviews all the time, big family man.

Three boys, a teenage girl. Lorraine this, Lorraine that.

Centrelink checked up on me.

They find that they got me down as living with my brother.

Me and my big mouth, that's who dobbed us in.

All those interviews I did for Aboriginal of the Year,

Centrelink read every one of them!

They were keeping tabs on me!

They seen me rise to the top of the charts with all this shit,

and I lapped it up!

You bloody idiot.

Well, you never said no.

The holidays, the kids' school fees, extra grog money, fucking Blu-Ray.

Hey, I had four mouths to feed over the past 16 years.

Well, technically it was just a little shorter than that

because the boys come after Jade.

Be a man!

Take responsibility! That's all I want from you!

We can do this. We just have to start paying it off, you know?

You got your job. I can go back to the school and work there.

I quit.

Say that again.

Peter wanted me to work under Derek Hammil!

Fucking Islander boy looking after his own South Australian breed.

Can you believe it? I quit.

Get out! What?

Get out!

Here! Take your clothes and get out!

I'm not playing, Ray! Get out!

And don't come back until you get a job!

Here! Here, here, here, here, here! See this?

Take this shit! This cost us $60,000!

While you're at it, go and see Timmy at Centrelink and plead mercy.

When you sort your shit out, get back to me!

Hey, big fella! Any shrapnel?

Whoa!

Call me King Raymond! Whoo!

Anyone got a phone? Let's take a photo!

(Laughter)

Oh!

Oi, hurry up with that, judge.

I want that... Pass that trophy over here!
