Oi! This isn't fair!

Not fair! Not fair!

[laughter and squealing]

[squealing]

[gentle atmospheric music]

[alarm sounds]

-[Dom] Go, go, go!
Come on, everyone,
you know what to do.

Go! Let's go!

Stop. This is serious.

Archie!

[alarm continues]
Move.

Nice and steady.
Archie, you know what to do.

-Yup.
-Quick as you can.

Come on, Tillie.
Sage, that's it. Be safe.

Archie, backpacks, fast.

Come on. Quick as you can.
Quick as you can.

[alarm continues]

-[Dom] Quickly, quickly.
Come on, guys.

-[Francesca] For your sister.
Tillie, here you go. Tillie.

-[Dom] Just go, just go,
just go.
-[Archie] Mum!

-[Dom] Keep close behind me.
That's it.

Keep the pace up, guys.
Keep the pace up.

Move ahead.
Come on move ahead.

Keep going.
Quick, quick, quick.

[Archie] Come on.

[Dom] That's it.
Bags in the boot.

Here you go, darling.
Off you go.

Good girl.

Two minutes, 20.

Sloppy work, people.
Sloppy work.

We should be able to do it
in under two.

[zipper creaks, tablets rattle]

[newsreader] Relief for tens
of thousands of city residents
this morning

as predicted storms fall
well to the west of the city.

Not such good news, I'm afraid,

for the people of Oberon
and Wisemans Creek.

Winds topping 170km/hr
raged through the night.

Some Pacific island nations
were also unlucky,

bearing the full force of
Hurricane Katelyn,

with multiple casualties
and some isolated islands
completely devastated.

[electronic beep,
broadcast ends]

Are you sure you can't
start tomorrow?

-[Eadie] It's National Service.

I don't remember them saying

"Turn up when you feel like it"
on the form.

I just don't understand
why you don't get Dom to
sort you out an exemption.

[Eadie] I don't understand
why I have so many shoes.
I mean, it's absurd.

Is there some sort of
weird thing going on
between you and him?

You don't want him
to do you a favour or something?

It's like I've got some sort of
octopus delusion or something.

I mean, how many feet
do I really think I have?

And are you sure
you can't start tomorrow?

I don't want an exemption,
alright.
I don't want to be exempt.

I just want to do something
that's not about me for
one second, and you're...

I don't know why you're
so hung up about it.
Why do you even care?

Is that...
Have you got product
in your hair?

No. Ye... Maybe.

Oh, shit.

Oh, shit. I'm so sorry.

-You're presenting today.
-Yeah. Yeah, we are.

-I'm so sorry.
-It's OK. It's fine.

It's not a big deal. It's...

Of course it's a big deal.

It's the biggest presentation
of your career.

-Don't worry about it.
It's fine.
-I'm gonna call them.

-I'll see if I can...
-Don't. Just...

[scoffs] I'm such a bad wife.
I'm sorry. I just...

I'm so sorry.

I'm just a bit all over the shop
at the moment.

Hey, hey.

It's okay.

You go do your thing.

If you don't show up
when we win the Nobel Prize,

then we've got
a real problem, OK?

[quietly] I love you, baby.

[quietly] I love you too.

[tender orchestral music]

[bus engine idling]

This way.

[indistinct radio chatter]

[beep]

[electronic voice]
Please repeat after me.

- In Australia,
my voice identifies me.

What if I don't want to?

[AI assist]
Please repeat after me.

In Australia,
my voice identifies me.

[Australian accent]
"In Australia,
my voice identifies me."

[beep]

[crowd chatter,
indistinct announcements]

[muffled announcement]

[man] Get your bags ready,
please. Passports--

-[man] If you're only here
for emergency relief,

but you're planning
to return to your homes,

please make your way
back to the pavilion.

Now, if you're here applying
for an Urban Residency Permit,

you need to go through
the registration tent

and get an identity wristband.

[muffled shouting]

[man] Good morning,
National Service.

Correct? You're the new
National Service person?

-Yeah.
-Awesome.

Eadie. Abel Keralo.
Get gloved up, masked up.

We don't get on top
of this intake,
the whole day is shot.

Everyone gets a blood test
for hepatitis,

HIV, malaria, Ross River,
yellow fever, typhoid.

Swabs in there for influenza.

Blood smear for chagas.
Skin test for TB.

And they spit in a cup
on the way out.

What's the spit for?

DNA repository.

Wow.
They have a choice?

Or - you want help,
you hand over the data?

I'm sorry,
you are a doctor, right?

'Cause they told me
I was getting a doctor.

Yeah, I'm a neuropsychologist.

[chuckles]

Oh, great.

As they say in medical terms,

I need someone who can put
300 sausages on buns

and they send me a souffle chef.

[exasperated sigh]

[PA announcement]
Attention, attention.

[muffled PA announcement]

[Abel] Ta.

[speaker feedback]

Hi. Attention, everyone.

You all need to get
your wristbands scanned.

If you were given
a positive medical score,

you'll be shown how to
access food and clothing
and shown where to sleep.

Now, if you have
a negative medical score,

you'll be led through
the side doors,

where Border Control Officers
will direct you onto the buses.

Thank you.

[crowd chatter,
muffled announcements]

So what happens to the people
who end up back on the bus?

They go back to
their residency zone,

treated in hospitals close to
their registered address.

Back to the rural hospitals?

That don't have the expertise
to treat what they've got
in the first place.

The centre's remit is to help
those who qualify for it.

Remit?

Welcome to the remit.

-Hey.
-Hey.

Stonehewen.

Concierge. I buzz you through
to see your brother.

Yeah, sorry, I didn't...

Recognise me without the suit.

Yeah. [laughs]

Do you do the security here
as well?

No, no. Um...
my family are here.

They still have to do
their regional year

before they can apply
to come into the city.

Do you work here?

No, I'm a volunteer.
National Service.

Just helping out
in the medical tents.

Oh, well,
you drew the short straw.

Cool. I won't hold you.

-Hey.
-Hey.

Give us your phone.

I've gotta show you
how this data loop works.

So...

This is a loop of last week's
data when you, ah...

...lost the baby.

This will keep coming to you
and Lloyd in a loop until
you take the implant off.

And this is what's actually
going on inside there.

Thank you.

Eadie, are you sure
you shouldn't just tell him now?

Tell him.

Ask forgiveness.

I think I've missed that boat.

Right now, until I know
if this one's sticking around,

the only reason to tell him
is so I'd feel better.

OK.

Good luck for today.

[chattering]

[electronic beeps,
phones ringing]

Great.

All good?

-[announcer] The presentation
will begin...

-You sent me
all key data, yeah?

[beep]

Just released by the legal team.

All methodology specifications

have been registered
this morning
as proprietary knowledge.

But you have to stick absolutely
on script.

Yes, you mentioned, Herman.
Twelve times.

You deviate and include
any more of the data,

we're going to have to
give it away for free.

-I get it.
-Do you?

Just a reminder,
there's 300 campuses,

12 venture capitalists
with declared interests

just waiting for you to slip up

and give them just enough
to make their own running
without us.

-I get it, OK. I get it!
-OK.

Lloyd.

Thank you.

[chattering]

[bike horn beeps]

Oh, shit. Look out.

[male newsreader]
Scientists gathered today
for a major announcement

at the National Institute
of Science--

[female newsreader]
Two young vector biologists--

[female newsreader two]
The fight against chagas disease

has taken
on a new urgency...

Excuse me, can I
get through, please?
Thank you.

...with rising temperatures
delivering an explosion
in populations

-of the kissing bug...
-[Shay] Excuse me. Sorry...

...which carry
this deadly disease.

Early peer review
of the pair's materials
has sounded positive notes.

But, as ever, it's not until
the full data set is revealed

that the real importance
of this work
can be evaluated.

[chattering]

Sorry, can I just...

-Mate...
-Sorry, I didn't set my alarm.

[man] Shay.

-You are not wearing that.
-What?

[Lloyd sighs]

What?

Oh, sausage, are you nervous?

Please don't. Don't, OK?
Not today, OK?

[announcer] The presentation
will begin in--

-This is why I forgot
to set my alarm.

-[announcer]
...doors will close--

I kept on having visions
of this mob shooting
the whole thing down.

All the things that we missed.

Yeah. Finally and completely
being exposed as faking it.

-Faking it?
-Me, darling, not you.

-You never fake it.
-Don't touch me. OK.

-[technician] Hey.
Mics are on now.

In searching for
a high efficiency
gene disruption

in Trypanosoma Cruzi,

the etiologic agent
of chagas disease,

we had a singular hypothesis.

This shows
the C-terminal tagging
of the endogenous proteins...

We used the...
[voice fades]

...Cas9/pTREX vector

to insert--

[Shay] --SGRJ targeted
the GO1 is

PCR amplified and cloned.

The donor sequence contains
both the tag sequence
and the marker

for antibiotic resistance...

...in addition to more
than 100bp homology arms

corresponding to regions
located upstream

of the stop codon
and downstream of
the Cas9 target site.

-[Lloyd] ..aiming to induce
a double strand break in a site

that could be replicated
multiple times
down the germ line.

And verify that it doesn't
generate off target effects

on the T.cruzi genome...

And so we come to
the final results
and to the sigma.

What's the "sigma"?

Oh, it's the number
that lets us know
if your dad's results

were a fluke or not.

So, zero - obvious fail.

Two's good. Three's excellent.

All the way up to four,
out of the park.

It's yours.

Take it.

Detached flagella indicated by
the white arrows.

Single cell details
shown in Panel 'B'.

Second generation blood count...
numbers are in green.

And when we run
these numbers through our
standard deviation modelling...

...it delivers
a sigma of... five.

[applause]

[cheering]

[applause continues]

[cameras click]

If there was ever a reason
to take a day off...

I know, I would love to,
but I have a tonne
of work to do.

And I'd rather take
the day off with you

when we can just
hang out together, OK.

Come on, I'll take you.
You'll be back in time
for maths.

Hey, thank you.

Thank you for bringing her down.

Couldn't be happier for you.

Interview requests

from SCN, ASR,

Stream 365 News and CBN.

Three companies are
offering us equipment.

And an offer to fly us
to the Capstone Festival
in Prague next week.

[chuckles] OK.

Here we go.

Remarkable.
Who'd have thought it?

Certainly not you, Herm.

Judgements I retract in full.

I mean, I could
go on about it

but I'd rather
make good in kind.

What's that?

Preliminary research budget.

But get ready for
some serious courting.

There are a dozen
expressions of interest already.

How many years is this over?

Oh, ah, just the one.

Better make a plan for
spending it before the board
changes their mind.

[chuckles]

Today's been a good day, eh?

Yeah, it has indeed.

No Eadie?

No, no, she's made
the National Service commitment.

She wanted to bail
but I insisted.

Zahra Malak, CBM News.

I'm wondering
if you can talk about

what brought you both to science
in the first place?

And what do you say
to those claiming

you're stomping all over
Mother Nature,
playing God in the lab?

Uh...

[chuckles]

Well, that's a pretty
reductionist way
of thinking about things.

But I got into biology
because I wanted to understand
the laws of nature, not...

Uh, you know, we don't have
too many kissing bugs

because there's a fault
with those natural laws.

We have too many kissing bugs

because we have made
such an horrendous mess
of things, OK.

So, far from... from...

I don't know, trying to
dominate Mother Nature,

I am in Mother Nature's service.

-[Shay mumbles] That's cute.

-And you, Mr. Levine?

I am just in it for the money.

[laughter]

I might let Shay
finish this off.

He's got more than enough
to say for both of us.

Uh... Herm...

why don't you...

Yeah.

Thank you, everyone, for coming.

It's been a great day for NIS.

And I'd just like to say
we're extremely proud of our...

Would it actually kill you
to admit that what we did
was a big deal?

It actually means something.

I'm happy to. But I'm not
gonna do it like some
performing seal.

We don't owe those people
anything.

Let alone a peek into our souls,

that they're gonna turn into
some cheap bullshit sound bite

for morons to chew up
and spit out
three minutes later.

You're gonna...
You're gonna have to
help me out a bit here.

Things aren't great
on the home front.
It's just this...

It's just this whole
baby thing, you know.

We have to stay connected
to this monitoring app
for the next month

and every day it's just like...

It's like watching her
getting stabbed in the face.

"You are not pregnant.
You are not pregnant.
You're not..."

Like she could forget.

And you know
what the worst thing is?

It's like, for two years,
I have had my hand in the fire

and now I'm finally
able to take it out.

And I just want to
punch myself in the face,

'cause all I feel is just relief
that this horror show is over.

But every day
since we've given up...

...she gets further away
from me.

It's like when she sees me,
she looks at me,
she sees her pain.

[scoffs]

Thank you.

For what?

[scoffs] For not...

...you know, for not
saying anything.

Thanks.

Anytime.

-[woman] I need to go.
I need to go!

-[Abel] Hey, hey!

I need to get out of here!

[Eadie] Hey, hey, hey.

She's got no ID.
She won't even tell me her name.

-Won't or can't?
-[woman whimpers]

I know I don't always want
to do what I'm told, but...

Hey. My name's Eadie.

Can you tell me your name?

No? OK.

Do you know it?

No.

[Eadie] OK. That's OK.

It's so hot in here.

Do you want to, um,
come and get some fresh air

and we can make a bit of a plan?

Yeah? Just go for a little walk.

So, if we work backwards,

you remember getting
off the bus here, yeah?

Yeah?

How about getting on the bus?

This last one came
from the Central West,

so you would have
got on at, um...

Dubbo?

Millthorpe?

Oberon?

Um...

Yeah?

Yeah. So maybe...
Maybe you live in Oberon?

Maybe you were caught up in
the storm there last night?

Do you know what day it is?

Tuesday?

You're doing good.

Can you tell me something
that's happening in the news?

Something current?

Weather's turned to shit.

-Nausea?
-Mm.

Headache?

OK.

Can you hold your hands up?

Grab my hands.

Make fists, really tight.

Great.

Don't let me
pull your arms down, OK.

Good.

Well, I think it's safe to say
you don't work in a nail salon.

Honest hands.
That's what my, um...

My...

Are you married?

Maybe.

So, there's no
external injuries,

then the first thing we consider
is a traumatic brain injury.

A knock to the head
and things haven't
resettled properly.

-[Abel] Has rice arrived yet?

Oh, as I speak.
You're too good, people.

To be sure,
she needs an MEG scan

and without any ID credentials,
that's gonna be a hard one
to pull off.

We're a little low
on brain tech.

And unless it's an emergency,

you won't be able to
get her into your hospital,
correct?

Any ideas?

I'll bring it back. I promise.

I heard you were never here.

Maybe that's why
you're not answering my calls.

You've disappeared
off the face of the earth.

Sorry.

Have you been doing
the jabs yourself?

No, I, uh...

You tell me you've gotten
a new support person, I'm gonna
feel very cheated.

You're off the hook.

I'm so sorry, but...

When?

A couple of days ago.

You didn't call me.

No, I just, um...

I just needed to
do this one on my own.

Of course. Sorry.
That was so needy of me.

I'm sorry.
Look, I'm...
around if you need me.

And I'm not around if you don't.

[helicopter whirring]

Where's that going? Um...

Hey, boss, can I just get
your signature real quick?

-OK.
-Thank you.

Well, it's not his decision
if he goes to school or not,
Chesca. It's ours.

Yeah, and every time you let him
get away with it...
No, I'm just saying...

I'm just saying that if
there's a real problem

and we need to
get away in a hurry,

it doesn't matter if he likes
the way it feels or not.

[door shuts]

Yeah, I know.

I'm sorry.

OK.

I'll see if I can
swing by this afternoon.

Bye.

-Cosmo?

Yeah, I'm running drills
with them at the moment.

Unless he gets 24 hours notice
and some sheepskin earmuffs,
he can't cope.

So, give them to him?
You know when the shit
hits the fan,

you're just gonna pick him up
and get the hell outta there.

So why put all of you
through it?

At the end of the day,
remind me to fire you.

I'm taking the kids away
for the weekend.
You can get the early train.

Denillo's
have booked a pick-up.

Quick taxi run to the airport.
Better fire up the limo.

[pilot] What, are you coming?

Yeah, they've just upgraded
to premium customers,

so Harlow wants to make sure
they get looked after
by a partner.

-[Eadie] So let me
talk you through
what I'm seeing.

I'm seeing swelling here,

which is one of the markers
we'd expect from a traumatic
brain injury.

What I'm also seeing are

some pretty significant changes
to your dopamine receptors.

What does that mean?

It means you've been
cooking yourself

a pretty intense
pharmaceutical habit

for the last couple of years.

Probably one of
the peptide-based
analgesics

like Oliceridine or Fentanyl.

Here and here, that's structural
change to the neural pathways.

And all of this red activity
here, that's acute
opioid withdrawal.

That's the good news.

Because it accounts for
part of why you feel so bad.

You're up to your eyeballs
in cold turkey.

In time that will subside.

Is that why I can't
remember anything?

I just fried my brain?

I don't think so.

But it's so noisy in there
right now,

it's like trying to hear
a pin drop
in the middle of the freeway.

We just need to ride out
the withdrawal

until we can get
a better picture
of what's actually happening.

A junkie, eh?

What a first thing to know.

[Abel] Our support team
will take it from here.

If she was getting her fix
over the counter, we'll be able
to track a file.

It's a Schedule 8 drug
and you can't get it
without a thumb print anymore.

I think we'll keep you
after all.

Well, don't put yourself out.

[helicopter whirrs]

[pilot] Wondered how you'd
feel about me taking Mo out

for a flight next weekend?

It's his birthday.

Wow, he's gonna love that.

He'll be down in a year.

Let's get these guys out
and take an early mark.

[helicopter powering down]

Lou, how are you?

Good. Good to see you.
We're not quite ready, though.

Miles isn't feeling so good.

-[woman] Nice and slow.

That's it. Just nice and slow.

Hey, guys. It's Miles, right?

Hi, Miles.

-Can I, um...?
-Yeah.

Hi there.

I'm Dom.

I need you to squeeze
both my hands, OK.

OK.

That feeling of not being
able to breathe
is the worst, right?

Excellent.
Hearing you loud and clear.

Now, the key is
I need to find out whether

this feeling's coming from
the outside in
or the inside out.

So I need a really big
two-handed squeeze

if you're feeling wired
and nothing if
you're feeling tired.

OK. This is more like
a panic attack.

-So what we need is...
Have you got a bag?
-[Miles] Yep.

Hey... [whispers]
I have these too.
You'll be fine.

[Miles] Here you go, Dom.

I want you to breathe
into this very high-tech
paper bag,

and that'll bring
your carbon dioxide levels down

and the world will start
looking like
a much happier place.

There you go.

He'll be fine.

[woman] That's it, darling.

A serotonin reuptake inhibitor
would make the flight
a whole lot easier,

stop him having another attack
in the air.

[woman] Good boy.

-[Lou] If we hang around
for another two hours waiting
for a prescription,

we're gonna miss our flight.

We've got a list
of tame pharmacists
on the books.

We can email through
a script request.

And picking up?

Tully will be more than happy
to drive into town and get it
for you.

Absolutely. Happy as Larry.

-Thank you. That's brilliant.
-It's all part of the service.

You haven't got a tame plumber
on the books as well,

because I've got a shitfight
in the bathroom I don't know
what to do about.

[gurgling]

[sigh]

Leave you to it while I
pop down the shops, boss.

Unless you want to swap jobs.

What's going on?

-Tried to call you.
-What?

I ran some more numbers.
I wanted to double check.

-We double checked.
-Triple check.

The CCR5 fertility deletions
came out with
a different set of coordinates.

The DNA changes hitched a ride
on the transposons.

I tested it on other insects.

Crosses the species barrier,
so...

whatever eats our bug
gets its fertility bombed too.

We're a long way from ready.

We have to push
the pause button.

-[Eadie] Hey, it's me again.

Been watching you
break the internet.

I'm so proud of you.

Wish I'd been there.

The centre is...

It's tougher going than
I thought it would be.

Anyway, just call me
when you get sick
of all the glory.

I love you.

-[Eadie] Rachel Elleanor Mawson,

born 28th of July 1998.

You had your tonsils out
when you were six.

And you broke your arm
playing netball
when you were 13.

Then a back injury
two years ago,

after a tractor accident
on your farm.

You had surgery to remove
part of a herniated disc.

That's where the Fentanyl
came in.

I could find prescriptions
for six months.

After that, you must have been
getting them in other ways.

You married Gianni Reece
seven years ago.

He's quite handsome, right?

This is your family home.

It belonged to your mum and dad.

And her mum before that.

Are they alive, um, my parents?

They both passed.

The year after,
you gave birth to Louisa Mae.

She's seven.

What hap...

Do you know where they are?

I put a call in to
the Emergency Services
at Ashton.

There was a lot of damage
to your house.

So there's a good chance
that they're in one of
the evacuation shelters.

I got some things
from the hospital

to help take
the edge off some of
your withdrawal symptoms.

Start off with a patch.

OK.

Once the withdrawal
starts to subside,

my memory's gonna start
to come back, right?

[phone rings]
Seriously? Now?

Answer call.

Stopped off for a coffee,
have we?

-I've stumbled into
a situation here
at the pharmacy.

Bit of a hold-up actually.
It's alright. Woah, woah!

-Tully?
-[Tully] It's alright.

-[Tully] We can work this out.
-What's going on?

-[man] Work out?!
-[Tully] Listen![gun shot]

-[Abel] Welcome, sisters.

Welcome, brothers.

As we come together
to give thanks for what we have,

even in the face
of what we have lost.

[no audible dialogue]

[no audible dialogue]

-[Abel] Some of us
have lost homes.

Homes we built or grew up in.

Some have lost possessions,
special things,

sacred things,
handed down over generations.

Some have lost loved ones.

In that loss,
that stripping down,

when we lose the things
that say who we are,

who we think we are.

When we don't have the car
that says how much we earn,

or which team we barrack for,

which party we vote for,

what school our kids got into,

what brands we let
do our talking for us.

All those things,
those attachments,

those aversions,

those stories...

And what's left,
it's not what
makes us different.

It's what makes us the same.

And without all that crap...

Sorry, kids.

...we've got a chance
of seeing that.

Seeing that we all
want the same thing.

We want to be loved.

We want to feel safe.

And it would be easy
to despair and to think
where is the sanity in all this,

where is the sense.

And if God floats your boat,
maybe you're asking,
"Where is God in all this?"

Maybe in the dark hours
of the night, you're thinking
that God is punishing us.

[baby cries]

Or Mother Nature
is trying to rid herself

of some overgrown
parasitic infection.

But this, frightening
and destructive as it is...

-[Rachel] It's OK, baby.
...is God lamenting with us.

[baby cries]
-[Rachel] I've got you.

-[Abel] It is the mourning
and weeping of Mother Nature.
It's not a punishment.

-[girl] Mumma! Mumma!
It's a message about
what we've done

and what we need
to do differently.

I've got you. I've got you.

Mummy needs to go for help, OK?

[Abel] Before it goes cold.

I need you to stay here
and look after Daddy.

You sit tight and just
stay in the car,
alright?

And before you know it,
we'll be home.

We'll have a hot chocolate
and a bath.

And your job...

Your job is to think about
how many chapters we read
before sleep.

OK?

-[Abel] To give thanks
for this day,

to honour those lost,

to appreciate
this excellent dinner.

Two, four, six, eight,

bog in, don't wait.
[laughs]

[Rachel whimpers, sobs]

Rachel?

We ran off the road.
I think I walked for help.

I left them there.

OK. Let me put a call in...

Eadie. The hospital's
on the phone.
I think it's urgent.

Thanks. Um, just give me
one minute, OK.

Oh, Bear.

I called his wife
on the way here.

I told her he was gonna be OK.

I lied.

The world's gone mad.
