Original subtitles

I´m here tonight to announce that I´m going to run for mayor.

-[ Sighs ] -Oh.

-I´m sorry I said I loved you. -So you don´t love me?

Ow!

-You ever heard of the Troubles? -Hey.

Well, that´s what you just bought yourself.

Likes to take long walks. Who doesn´t?

One of these guys has to be nice enough to see more than once.

I´ve known Joey all my life. He is my oldest friend.

Joey´s dying, Hugh.

There´s no point dragging it out because you don´t like it.

They have a new trial starting this month.

We need to get Joey onto it.

We´ve been down this road before.

This is a completely new road. It´s a superhighway to recovery.

PENNY: When are you gonna grow up

and accept responsibility for anything?

Hard to say.

Do you ever wonder who your real dad was?

I remember Mum saying he was a guy who didn´t want to be a dad.

Hey. Something´s wrong.

-It´s probably the chain. -I got it, Dad, all right?

-[ Engine revs ] -Aah! Aah!

It´s your own fault, acting like --

What, his father? I´m his father. Not you. Me.

Ajax.

JIM: Ajax!

You´re pouring blood, mate.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

[ Birds chirping ]

[ Cellphone beeps ]

-AJAX: It´s Ajax´s phone. -[ Beep ]

It´s me. Again.

Are you okay?

Look.

I´m sorry how everything went.

Everyone´s worried.

Can you call me, please?

Yeah.

[ Music continues ]

Don´t give me that "poor Hugh, career´s over," sorry-arse look.

I wasn´t thinking of your arse, truly.

Get over here. Inflict some pain on me.

I´ve dreamt of doing this but for so any different reasons.

Feel that?

No.

Any sensation?

Not where it should be.

MATT: One night back from Sydney,

you´ve already used all my shampoo!

I´m an invalid. There was spillage.

Hospital should´ve kept you under longer.

Look, I´ll get my stuff as soon as big bad Dad´s not there.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Tugger.

Do you know anything about Joey flying back from Adelaide today?

What?

The clinical trial hasn´t even started yet.

No. Not for Joey, apparently.

-What did he say? -Nothing.

It was just a text with his flight number.

-His phone´s off. -If he´s done a runner...

-I´m heading to the airport. -Yeah. I´ll meet you there.

What could´ve happened?

Don´t know. I´ve rung them, but no answer.

There he is. Excuse me! Thank you.

Joey!

What happened? Are -- Are you all right?

Fine, babe. They just said I couldn´t do it.

Why not?

It´s a clinical trial. You´re the perfect candidate.

Who knows?

Medical professionals. Can´t trust them.

What happened to your hand?

Ajax. The bike.

Oh, shit. Ajax.

Leb nes nop -- [ Sighs ] Leb nes no--

You drinking on the plane, mate?

Lem nos nah -- Lem nos deh --

-Look mek lom -- -Hugh?

-Clinic. Go. -Look mek --

-Come on, babe. It´s all right. -Look mak --

[ Mid-tempo instrumental music plays ]

Well, there´s a slight optical bulging.

How long have you had the headaches and slurring?

On and off, a while.

-And double vision. -Only twice.

What´s wrong with him?

I don´t know, but people don´t just get released

from very expensive immunotherapy trials.

Maybe they had too many people. I don´t know.

They said they´d speak to you.

Right. Anything?

It´s cold.

Right.

I´m gonna check his original scans.

[ Sighs ]

Your 8:00 has been waiting for half an hour.

Well, I guess they´re my 8:30, then.

I´ll just let her know you don´t have time

for her potentially abnormal cervical cells.

A Pap?

Can´t you get Penny to do it? I´m kind of busy.

Penny´s AWOL and not answering her phone.

Perhaps I should check our ether supplies

and the boot of your car.

Ooh.

[ Sighs ]

Just get this crap out of my office, Aoife.

I don´t know anything about it --

or the prawns in your glove box.

Don´t move. I´ll be right back.

WOMAN: I haven´t done one of these before.

-Me either. -He´s kidding.

What happened to your hand?

Oh. Great white.

It was a bike accident.

His career as a surgeon is over. It´s tragic.

Such potential.

She´s a pathological liar. We´ve upped her meds.

Try to relax your legs, Shelley.

Dr. Knight will describe the procedure as we go.

Won´t you?

Yes.

Um, well, the speculum here is, um...

Let´s start with the cervix, shall we?

The cervix is like a tiny...bagel --

He´s not comfortable with the female reproductive system.

He´s a virgin.

I´m a cult leader? Really?

You told her I´d been in prison for bestiality.

Aoife, our shit stays between us.

You made our shit public when you hit on me at work!

Hit on?

Unbelievable.

Who was all, like, booty call,

push-up bra, magic-tongue-trick thingy?

You are a sad, one-handed,

emotionally stunted little rat man!

Aah! [ Grunts ]

-What? -Open the door! Open the door!

Oh, my Go--

-Aah! -Oh, my God. Hugh, I´m so sorry.

-I -- -Get away from me!

-[ Groans ] -We´re gonna head off.

Um, wait. The scans...

Mother Mary of J--

Where´s Penny?!

Get Penny!

[ Door opens ]

[ Exhales deeply ]

Mm.

[ Sighs ]

I should probably get to work.

Tell your boss that you´re sick.

Tempting.

However, as my own boss,

I´d better go in before I notice I´m not there.

[ Laughs ]

God. You´re ridiculous.

[ Cellphone chimes ]

Oh, shit. I´ve got to go.

Got a science assessment today.

I´m gonna be a doctor, like you.

Is that...

-Are you... -Uh-huh.

You´ve bedded Whyhope High´s head prefect.

You said you worked at TAFE.

Well, I do -- after-school deliveries.

Oh, my God.

Why are you freaking out?

I´m 18. It´s not illegal.

I´ve got to go.

See you.

Oh. I´ll Snapchat you.

WOMAN: Message received today at 8:40 a.m.

BETTY: Good morning, valiant leader.

This is Betty Bell, obviously.

Your patients are starting to arrive.

Are you far?

Or perhaps you´re otherwise engaged, Tinderella.

That was a thinly veiled reference to sexual conquest.

Call me. Bye, now.

[ Beep ]

WOMAN: Next message.

WOMAN: Penny, hi.

It´s Hannah Fisher from St. Vincent´s.

I´ve put your name forward for a fellowship

at our medical-research arm.

I think you´d be great, and it´s a rare opportunity.

I know it´s Sydney and you´ve got Floyd to think of,

but give me a call.

I´ve e-mailed you the details.

Ciao.

Oh, my God.

Dream job.

Dream job.

Hayley.

You just stop right there, young lady.

[ Engine shuts off ]

Told you he wasn´t at Mason´s Ridge.

And you were right. So where is he, Hayley?

Ajax is fine.

He´s had a shock and wants to be alone for a bit.

It´s been five days.

Well, it took Jesus 40 days to get his head straight.

We need to give him time.

I admire your loyalty, Hayley.

Just tell us where he is.

I love you both.

But no.

You´re saying no to me?

Yes, Meryl.

Sorry, Meryl.

No, no. No, darling.

It -- It´s all right.

But the election debate is tonight,

and I need my family there, united.

Jim, you´ve already thrown one son out of the house.

Try and retrieve the other, please.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

Oh!

Tampering with other people´s mail is a Commonwealth offense.

Well, so is importing live biological matter.

Just...why?

A healer doesn´t reveal her secrets to the common folk.

Leech saliva prevents clotting and improves circulation.

-So medieval. -It´s amazing.

They even inject the saliva into dogs

as a way to stop cancer colonization.

Where do you even get medical leeches from?

These are medical leeches, aren´t they, Betty?

Hopefully.

You´ll give him a bacterial infection.

These are only to be used in a highly regulat--

[ Gasps ] Oh! Look at that one swelling up.

That´s Lou.

Leeches are hermaphrodites,

so I had to assign gender-neutral names.

Get it away from me.

And yet...

Out. All of you.

Good work, friends.

Let the healing begin.

[ Keys clicking ]

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

Ah. Morning.

What does this look like to you?

What happened to that hand?

Aoife.

She probably drowns kittens for fun.

A tumor on the cerebellum.

Joey´s lung cancer has metastasized to his brain.

Oh, Hugh.

How was this missed the first time around?

It happens.

So that´s it.

I´m so sorry.

Is that a hickey?

No.

Shut up.

[ Dog barking in distance ]

Hello. Where are you going?

I know you want to go there. Yes, you do.

Well, you can. Come here. Go on.

Hello, Cleo. Eh?

Oh. Hello.

You knew before you got back.

Cleopatra´s glad I´m home.

-Aren´t you, girl? -Joey.

They told me. It´s in me brain.

Then why didn´t you tell me?

´Cause Chantelle was there.

I just didn´t want her to know.

All right. Here´s the deal.

You´re gonna get worse,

especially your balance and coordination.

Problems walking, speaking, seeing.

You´re gonna vomit a lot, get drowsy,

and the headaches are going to increase.

Eventually it will kill you.

Sounds like a blast.

I´m just giving it to you straight.

But we can manage your pain...

...make what time you have left as good as it can be.

I´m not gonna make it, mate.

I´ve known that for a long time.

What´s ahead scares the shit out of me.

I want you to cash in my chips.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

You know, take me for a wander in the happy hunting ground.

What? Sorry. I don´t speak metaphor.

End my life.

I want you to help me end my life.

[ Music continues ]

[ Birds chirping ]

Hey.

I told Meryl not to worry.

I said, "My boy, he´s got some of the best bush smarts around."

Taking the credit?

Well...

You been all right?

Yeah, yeah.

Plenty of rabbits.

Creek water. Berries. That´s all I need.

I-I just wish that you felt

that you could have told me that you were here.

I wish you´d told me Hugh was my dad.

He shouldn´t have said anything.

You´re all a bunch of liars, and you can piss off.

Mate.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

Okay.

Secret, but I have a chance at a job I used to dream about.

Like, literally I had dreams about doing it.

-A job? -And then in the shower --

-Destiny called. -I think so, but...

[ Whirring ]

Uh, I´ve got to...

Give me a minute?

You didn´t call me back.

Um, yes.

Sorry.

Look, can we do this later?

I´m just with a rather nosy colleague.

Yeah. Sure.

Sorry, Ben.

-Do you want half of my roll? -No.

You must be ravenous after all that sex.

-How do you know -- -Oh, please.

Your postcoital aura is practically scorching me.

And you have a hickey.

I save lives.

I don´t end them.

Let´s not even talk about the high probability

I could go to jail.

You´re the only one that can do it.

Besides, your hand´s stuffed.

You´re not gonna be a surgeon much longer.

-So jail´s a good option. then. -[ Chuckles ]

You are right, though.

If the damage is permanent, I´m done for.

I´m nothing without my hands.

Nothing?

What about your son?

Well, the way I told him I´m his dad proves I´m shithouse at it.

-He´s not speaking to me. -TUGGER: Joey!

Come inside. I made you a pie.

Great. What sort?

Okay.

It was -- It was gonna be a pie, but the recipe was like...

So I ordered pizza.

Sounds ace.

Coming, babe.

You got to fix things with Ajax.

[ Grunts, coughs ]

Hang on.

[ Metal rattling ]

Give us a go.

[ Rattling ]

Oh.

Mozzie got in my eye.

The old cottage.

I remembered that hunting trip when we stayed up here.

So what do I call you now?

"Your Highness"?

"Uncle"?

I quite like "Matt."

I don´t know what anyone is anymore.

Doesn´t matter, does it?

I mean, nothing has really got to change.

If it makes you feel any better, Mum and Dad

wouldn´t have lied for me the way they did for Hugh.

Yeah, ´cause you wouldn´t have done it in the first place.

I´ve had heaps of one-night stands.

So, you gonna live bush for the rest of your days?

Yeah. Could if I wanted to.

Oh, I know you could.

But you realize Dad´s schlepping around

like a bear with a broken heart.

Families, mate.

They suck.

But we´re stuck with them.

What do you say?

Time to come home?

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

-Vote for Meryl. -CHARLIE: Meryl T-shirt.

Here.

CHARLIE: Meryl T-shirt. You know you want it.

-Uh... -CHARLIE: Meryl T-shirt?

Vote for Meryl.

Vote for Meryl, Betty.

Vote for Meryl. Number 1. Number 1.

-Hi. -Big Nath. Meryl.

-Vote for Meryl. -Vote for Meryl.

Ah. Janet. Thank you.

Good luck, Mez.

Oh, and, uh, you are looking de-electable tonight.

De-electable. Get it?

[ Laughs ]

Don´t bite. That´s what he wants.

It´s "unelectable," you witless twonk-face doughnut!

God, you´re unlucky. Both hands?

-[ Grunts ] -One.

Careful. Okay. Head.

You´re touching my boob.

Sorry, not sorry.

MAN: Ladies and gentlemen,

welcome to Whyhope´s great mayoral debate.

Please settle down. Find your seats.

Our nominees will soon be making their speeches

in the hope of snaring your very important vote.

So, without any further ado, let´s welcome our candidates,

Mayor Rod Eagle and Councillor Meryl Knight.

Please do make them welcome. Yes.

Showtime. Smiles on.

Okay.

[ Laughs ]

Hi. Hello.

Whoo-whoo-whoo-whoo-whoo!

Whoo-whoo-whoo! Whoo!

Hey.

A certain young man is trying to get your attention.

[ Sighs ]

Just at the end. Yeah. That´s good.

Okay. Just sit there.

Oh.

Amorous correspondence from your gallant suitor.

[ Gasps ]

Stop it.

And so, friends, Whyhopeans, country folk...

...I stand before you hoping that you will entrust in me

the care of our beloved town and elect me to be your mayor.

Whoo!

I promise to do so with integrity, honesty,

and transparency.

Vote 1 -- Meryl!

HAYLEY: Whoo-whoo! Go Meryl!

Whoo-whoo-whoo!

I´m glad you´re here, mate.

MAN: Thank you, Councillor Knight.

And now I call upon Mayor Rod Eagle.

Integrity, honesty, transparency.

Tell me, Councillor, did you have these words in mind

when you allowed your son to leave school illegally

and then covered it up to the authorities?

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

Ajax Knight did not have an apprenticeship to go to

upon his early departure from Whyhope High,

which is against the laws

governing the education of children.

[ Audience murmuring ]

Do you deny it?

No.

And, of course, her son is not her son.

No.

He´s the son of Hugh Knight,

the golden boy, doing us all a favor.

You scratch the surface of Meryl Knight,

and you find a festering swamp of dishonesty

and a dysfunctional family

of thugs, degenerates, and liars!

Meryl Knight is as bad as...

Well, she´s as bad as the bloody Greenies.

Ajax.

Hey.

Hey, I´m sorry.

I´m sorry.

I should have done it better. I should have been better.

Are you really?

Yeah.

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Don´t.

Just...

I´ve got to take this.

-Tugger, what? -I called you four times!

Help me. Joey´s fitting.

Okay.

Roll him onto his side, check his mouth,

then time the seizures.

-Okay. -[ Groaning ]

Call the ambos.

Shh. Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.

All right. I´ll call the ambos.

It´s all right. You´ve just had a seizure.

Tugger -- Tugger, we´re gonna have to admit him.

No! No hospital!

Shh. Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.

WOMAN: Did we miss anything?

Yeah.

What are you doing, Meryl? He looks like an accountant.

Not helpful.

I think you look very studious.

Uh, no.

I haven´t been to school in months.

I´m too far behind now.

Mum, do something.

It´s your fault I have to go.

Knowledge is sought by some and thrust upon others,

but it is never wasted.

I shouldn´t have come back.

You walk through that gate with your head held high, mister.

Promise me you won´t talk to any of those netball girls.

JIM: Look, anyone gives you a hard time,

you tell them you survived five days´ bush

with just a pen knife.

Show them how to skin a rabbit.

-I wouldn´t. -Mum.

Come on.

-Let´s get this over with, son. -Please.

When are you getting me out of here?

We´re still assessing you.

It´s palliative care, mate. I can´t do it.

Yeah, I know.

Look at bloody Edith McNafferty over there.

Remember her?

HUGH: Hard to forget.

She used to fine us

every time we took our "Police Academy" videos back.

Even when they were rewound.

What about Mum?

She had a catheter that had to be emptied.

I know.

[ Voice breaking ] She died in this room.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

Man up, will you? Help me.

-It could end my career. -No one has to know.

-Doctors do it all the time. -But I haven´t.

I just want to go to sleep quietly and not wake up.

How are you doing, Joey?

Is that morphine helping?

Not enough.

Let´s see what we can do about that, then.

Uh, Penny, you might want to, um...

You been at the nitrous oxide again?

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

Excuse me.

Look, this is -- this is bigger than school.

I have these feelings inside right now that are so intense,

and...

...I think it´s love.

Maybe, but more likely hormones.

Is this because of the poem?

I know I´m not that good with iambic pentameter --

You´re great. We had such fun.

But I come with way too much baggage.

I d-- I don´t mind.

But you will when your friends are at schoolies and traveling.

This is the freest time of your life.

It doesn´t last long. Enjoy it.

Yeah. That´s what my mum said.

She´s a wise woman.

Did you know that I´m an A-grade hugger?

[ Chuckles softly ]

Is that...

I can´t help it.

It´s okay, but maybe we´ll stop hugging.

Hey, can we talk?

You shouldn´t be driving one-handed.

-Get in, will you? -Get lost.

Aren´t you supposed to be in school?

I left early.

I suck at biology, and everyone laughed at my man bun.

Your car smells like prawns.

Okay.

Ajax.

[ Engine shuts off ]

Can we talk? I mean can we really talk?

I wish it was Matt and not you.

Fine.

But you do know... Biology is my middle name.

So, you see, the variables from the resting body temperature --

AJAX: What´s a variable?

Something that changes -- sleep, cold, hunger.

Whether the temperature is taken orally or rectally.

Or rectally? Like in your --

Ear. Yep.

Right.

What´s the primary marker here for circadian rhythms?

Oh, no. I can´t remember.

Mate, how are you ever gonna go to uni

if you can´t grasp the simplest things?

-I don´t want to go to uni. -Okay.

-All right. Sorry. -This shit´s just boring.

Oh, it´s so boring.

Sorry. What are you doing here?

I failed biology too.

Plebs. The human body is a wonder of nature.

Kinky Prince Charles Often Fucks Gray Sheep.

That´s how we used to remember the taxonomy order.

Kingdom, phylum, class, order,

family, genus, species.

-Yes. -Okay.

Oh, that´s awesome. [ Laughs ]

That actually is.

[ Cows lowing in distance ]

-CHARLIE: Uh, wheat -- -AJAX: Whole wheat.

CHARLIE: Yeah. You okay? We´ll just go back. Just --

Yeah. So from there.

"Most good mixed diets have an MPU value of around 70."

Dad, wait.

You missed a transfusion today. The hospital rang.

Tell Ajax I´ll see him at home.

You can´t just miss a transfusion, all right?

Why does everyone around me have a death wish?

[ Cellphone ringing ]

Shit.

Tugger, the clinic car is at the front, so he must be here.

Yeah. Oh, hang on.

Hang on. I´ll call you back.

You know there´s a chair over there?

Didn´t see that, did I?

You know how to tie a noose, do you?

Doesn´t matter. I´m stockpiling sleeping pills.

Oh, that´s a great idea -- if it was the ´70s.

´Cause the dosage is lower.

You´d probably just wake up with brain damage.

I don´t know. I´ll use the exhaust.

Right. Well, modern cars have a carbon monoxide filter.

And that old bomb hasn´t started in 15 years.

This is not the way, you goose.

I got tumors fucking everywhere!

My brain tissue´s being invaded!

The only thing I have control over is the way I go out!

I´m faish--

-[ Grunts ] My -- -Hey. Hey, hey, hey. Hey.

-Take it -- Hey. -[ Shouting indistinctly ]

[ Coughs, groans ]

Hey.

You haven´t even said goodbye yet, all right?

What about Tugger?

Hey?

[ Sobs ]

No. You´re right.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

You´re right.

Yeah.

Okay.

I want a wake.

When the time comes.

No. I want it now, while I´m alive.

I want you to organize it for me.

[ Music continues ]

[ Insects chirping ]

[ Music continues ]

MAN: Your CV is very impressive.

-Thank -- -[ Chair hisses ]

Sorry. This chair needs --

[ Chair squeaking ]

Sorry. You were saying? Impressive?

You clearly have a knack

for resurrecting floundering practices.

You´ve overhauled five regional hospitals...

...initiated several successful women´s reproductive programs.

And there´s always womb for more.

Sorry. I pun when I´m nervous.

You´ve reduced mortality rates

for dementia patients in your region by a third.

Regional health deserves as much attention

as metro hospitals.

This is my life´s work.

I know that if you select me,

I could really captain your...fellowship.

Well, we have one more candidate to interview,

but we´ll let you know shortly.

If successful, is there much that would keep you in Whyhope?

No. Nothing.

Well, thank you for your time, Dr. Cartwright.

-Thank you. -[ Computer chimes ]

[ Chair hisses ]

[ Footsteps approaching ]

[ Snoring ]

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

[ Keys jingling ]

If you do what I think you´re doing, you´re on your own.

How is it any different

to what you do on the ward with morphine?

It´s completely different.

He has the right to die with dignity.

And he still can.

You´re out of touch with terminal care.

[ Whispering ] Aiding and abetting suicide.

We could both be prosecuted.

Don´t throw away everything you´ve worked for.

Too late.

No. Of course not.

[ Indistinct conversations, footsteps approaching ]

I won´t cover for you.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

Hey, Waz.

Hi, Jim.

-Hello. -Hi. How are you?

-I´m well. -You got everything?

[ Indistinct conversations ]

We need to talk sometime.

-Sure. -Arthur, mate.

Uh, Big Nathan.

Ah.

Mr. K.

How good is this?

Stoked I didn´t miss it.

Cheers.

-Cheers. -Cheers, guys.

Aww.

Remember when Ajax lost both his front teeth?

[ Laughs ] Yeah. It was so cute.

So cute. Come on.

God, my head was rude.

So rude.

[ Mid-tempo music playing ]

Oh.

This is so weird.

I´ve never been to one of these before.

I think it´s nice.

We always wait till people have gone to tell them how we feel.

Well, in case I never told you, I think you´re all right.

Sort of.

Yeah. I think you´re okay. A bit.

[ Glass clanking ]

Hello. G´day.

G´day, everyone.

Thank you.

Uh, this is the part of the day where what we´re gonna do

is we´re gonna talk about my baby brother.

So, uh, how about we hear from one of Joey´s oldest mates

and my high school crush, Hugh Knight?

[ Applause ]

[ Coughs ]

Ooh.

-Thanks, Jane. -MAN: High school crush.

Uh, well, I was a little nervous coming here today,

so I prepared a few lines.

And now I´ve snorted them, I feel much better.

[ Laughs ]

Um, so this -- this --

this impromptu bash is for our mate Joey.

Um, Joey hasn´t got long to live.

So I told him stay in Whyhope. It´ll seem much longer.

[ Laughs ]

Train wreck.

No. No.

Um...look.

I´ve been away a long time, and...not much has changed.

but you have, mate.

Never thought you´d end up smarter than me, but you have.

And you´re ticking off that bucket list, aren´t you?

I mean, you´ve learned Japanese.

You´ve met the woman of your dreams.

But we´ve still got plenty more stuff to do,

so don´t give up on me yet, hey?

Um...

To Joey.

ALL: To Joey.

To Joey.

-Joey. -Joey.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

JOEY: This.

TUGGER: [ Chuckles ]

And this.

Doesn´t get any better, does it?

No. No way.

Close your eyes.

Keep that picture in your head.

Open.

This is how I want you to remember me.

Us.

Don´t -- Don´t talk about that today.

I love you, Chantelle.

I-I love you, Joey.

I don´t want to keep going

until I´m all smelly and shriveled up.

I want to go now,

while I´m still smiling and holding your hand.

I don´t want to be a burden to you.

No. But...that -- that´s what I´m here for.

Asking for your blessing, babe.

N-No.

No. What -- What you´re saying is...

It´s just ridiculous.

You -- You are a fighter, Joey Higgins.

And me and Hugh are in your corner, aren´t we?

Yeah.

So -- So you -- you´d better keep your gloves up,

because I don´t fall in love with a piss-weak bolter

who takes off when shit gets hard, okay?

And besides...

...I know you wouldn´t break my heart like that.

JANE: Whyhope´s sexiest crooning cop to the mike!

You´re up.

JANE: Tugger, where are you?!

Come on.

[ Cheers and applause ]

Top day, mate.

Nice one.

You´d better really check out, ´cause I´m not doing this again.

[ Laughs ]

Anything?

You know, I let Betty do leech therapy on me.

[ Liquid falling ]

Oh, shit, mate. You´ve, um...

[ Exhales deeply ] Yeah.

Every day.

Sometimes twice.

Fuck.

What did I tell you?

[ Sighs ]

Fuck.

Come on.

[ Exhales deeply ]

Look at us, eh?

HUGH: You haven´t changed a bit.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

Yeah. All right. We´ll do it.

But my way.

Yeah.

[ Birds chirping ]

Oh, God.

Oh, my God.

I am -- I am more than a little dusty.

I hope there are no raids.

I am really not up for smashing faces today.

Oh.

Oh.

Do you need anything?

Uh, no, thank...

No, no. It´s okay.

Bye.

I´ll see you tonight.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

Oh, my God.

[ Door opens, closes ]

Hey. Where you headed?

Into town.

Can I come with you?

Get in.

[ Grunting ]

Here. Here.

Are you sure?

You said that twice already, and you weigh a shitload.

-Yeah, this is it. -[ Grunts, sighs ]

[ Coughing ]

Put it over here.

-Why? -Ants´ nest.

-Are you serious? -Well, I don´t want to get bit.

Okay.

[ Coughs ]

Here.

What´s this?

It´s for you to look at --

when you´re in prison, remembering whose fault this is.

Magnificent.

I´m gonna say sayonara to this.

I´m gonna miss your ugly mug.

I´ll be back to haunt you -- and perve on your mum.

Oh. Please don´t say that outside your head.

Deathbed confession -- Meryl´s a 10.

Okay.

I´m ready.

We don´t have to, you know.

I can take you straight home right now.

There´s no shame in it.

No, mate.

This is it. You promised.

-Let´s just -- -You can do it.

I know you can.

[ Down-tempo music plays ]

[ Music continues ]

I changed my mind.

What?

[ Laughs ]

Oh -- Oh, I´m sorry, mate. I´m sorry.

I shouldn´t have done that. I´m sorry.

I love you, mate.

It´s been a good life.

Shit, I´m scared.

I-In a good way, but.

It feels good.

[ Music continues ]

Arigato.

You´re welcome.

[ Music continues ]
