I wanted to tell you
before I went to the Chief.

It's my notice.
What?

It feels weird, ending something
that we always said

we never officially started.

When are you leaving
for that Melbourne job?

And don't feel guilty,

and I can
take care of Uncle Timmy.

He took care of me, so...

Say it!
You never say anything.

I never know what you're thinking.
You never ask me!

There's nothing to discuss.
This is my home.

Yeah, but it's not, is it Taylor?
You don't own it.

The bank does.

I wanted to ask you
if I'd crossed a line with you.

What line?
I'm your boss and we had sex.

You're a hypocrite.

I love you.
Me too.

Two weeks.

I'm glad that your wheel stopped
spinning where it did.

(PHONE CHIMES)

Oh, it's Henry.
Everything alright?

Yeah, he's coming back.

And he's bringing Ed with him.

(BIRDS CHIRPING)

(DOOR CREAKS OPEN)

Hey, what else are we loading?

It can all go in the clearing sale.

Come on, Jack! Come on!
(DOG BARKS)

Come on, good girl. Come on!

You can say it.
You're relieved, aren't ya?

Nuh.

Every drought we've held on.

Well, not every drought's
like this one.

You know, I got big plans
for this place when you leave.

Oh, yeah, like what?

Oh, you know,
add a bit of colour.

Bit of personality to the place.

Oh!
Oh, calm down.

It doesn't hurt that much.

Yeah, what if I was jabbing you?

You're carrying on.
We've been through this before, OK?

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah...

You've got to check
your blood sugar...

..yeah, yeah...
Hey!

It's important to check your
blood sugar at least once a day

to get your diabetes under control.

That's how we stop
your kidneys from failing.

Yeah, well, I thought
your doctor had special magic pills

for stuff like that.

Yeah, believe me. I wish.
Yeah, me too.

What?

Nothing, you've just been
sleeping here a lot, that's all.

I do live here.
What, you and Taylor break up?

Well, did ya?

Oh, don't ask me.

I've got no idea
what's happening in paradise.

Right, I'll see youse later.
Yep.

Help! Help!

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

(EXPLOSION)

Have Ed and Henry arrived yet?

Just landed. We have a problem.

What is it?

Well, I hope you weren't
looking forward to your day off.

OK.

I'm sorry.
Don't be.

What's the sitrep?

An explosion at Carrion Resources.
A haul truck caught fire.

How many injured?

One critical,
at least two fatalities.

Patient's a 21-year-old male

with blast injuries,
burns to his back.

Looks like he copped
most of the flash.

There's about a dozen P3s.

I spoke to Henry.

They're waiting for their bags,

then I told them to walk across.

Now?
Well, they need the keys.

Then you can see them quickly,
before you go.

Thanks.

Henry!

Pete. Ah, this is my dad.

Ed.
Ed, is it?

Oh, good to meet you, mate.

You blokes coming in?

Uh, yeah.

Yeah? Oh, come on.

Hang on, I thought...
doesn't your mum have the day off?

Yeah, she does.

Have you seen Eliza?

Clinic room. Wheels up in ten.

Alright. Um, leaving stuff here.

I'll take you through.

I think we need to do the...
Oh, sorry.

You've got, ah,
you've got visitors there.

Henry!
Mum.

Let me look at you.

You've grown.
No, I haven't.

I assure you
I'm exactly the same height.

Hi.

Henry, welcome back, mate.
Cheers.

Ah, this is Wayne and Leonie,
and I assume you've met...

Yeah, Pete.
Yeah, no, we've met.

Yeah.
So, what, one critical for Adelaide?

Well, we don't want
to get in your way, so...

No, take my car,
the keys to the house.

There's food in the fridge
and towels in the spare room.

Hi, mate.
Hi.

I've gotta do checks.

Ah, this is Pete.

I mean...Ed.

Yeah. Another time perhaps, eh?

Yeah, that'd be great. Next time.
See ya.

So glad you're home.

Right, go save someone's life.
Do something cool.

We have everyone above ground
and accounted for.

We're triaging now.

And how's that critical patient?

He's called in shock.

He's struggling with the pain a bit.

OK, 5 milligrams of morphine.
Let's see how he does with that.

Thanks, mate. See you on the ground.

What are you doing?

I'm just isolating us.

Why?
Wayne, can you...

Hey, does Ed know about
what happened between us?

I'm so sorry.

It's not how I envisaged
you and Ed meeting.

Yeah. It's fine.
But does he know?

It's possible that Henry might...

What's going on?

Sorry?
You're isolated.

Yeah, didn't want
to interrupt your call.

How's the patient?

Well, he's got some pain
medication on board,

but we need
to get some fluids prepped.

Alright. Fluids.
Yep.

It's my turn!

Jonty, Lexi, stop it!

What do you reckon it is?

Could be a couple of things.

Is it appendicitis?
I've looked it up.

Ah, it's a possibility.

But we want to rule some
other things out too.

Well, gastroenteritis,
gallstones.

Or an ovarian cyst.

We'll know more
when we do some tests.

Either way I'm sick enough.

I get to go on the plane?

Right.

How's the plane?
That Endone helping?

Yeah, so much better actually.

Is it homework?

Ah, patient notes.
On who?

Myself.
Cluey, this kid.

Is there something
you're worried about?

I'm in training.

I want to become a flight nurse
once I leave school.

A flight nurse!
Not a pilot.

No, a flight nurse.

Most kids want to be a pilot.

Don't listen to him.

He's grouchy
and disillusioned with life.

I can show you the ropes.

Really?
Yeah!

This is a finger probe.
Know what it does?

It measures pulse rates
and oxygen saturation. Kinda basic.

Even I knew that.

Right, but do you know
how it gets those measurements?

It shines a red and infrared light
through the fingertip,

and that's how it calculates
the oxygen levels

by how much light it absorbed.

Oh! Oh, cool!
I know, right?

What else you got?

I reckon those meds have kicked in.

Jason, hi.

Thanks for coming, guys.
Yep.

We need all the hands we can get.

Jason, this is Doctor Harrod.

How're you going?

Basic triage.
They're all Priority 3s.

Priority 1's over here.

OK, you and Pete take the P1.

I'll start working through the P3s.

I'll give you a hand.
Actually mate, just a sec.

The bloke sitting down,
I'm assuming that's Hayden.

Who's that with him?
That's his brother, Jesse.

That's the one who got him out.
Right.

Hayden, hi.
I'm Wayne, this is Pete.

Mate.
Hey, mate.

Good to meet you, mate.

Let's have a look at ya.

How're you feeling?
Cold.

It's pretty normal.

Your body's just struggling
to thermo-regulate.

Tell us what happened.

Um, I was on the decline
when I saw the fire,

and I pulled into the bay.

Sounds like some
pretty quick thinking.

It was a fuel bay.

He got the truck out.

It's the whole reason
the mine didn't go up.

You're a freshie, are ya?

Yeah, only been here
a couple of months.

Where'd the blast hit you, mate?
Just me back.

Mind if I have a look?

Burns, partial thickness
with areas of full thickness.

We're gonna need
to get this off ASAP.

Want to dress that in Acticoat?
Sounds good.

And if you can draw up
another morphine ten in ten.

I want to stay on top of his pain.

I'm just, ah, I'm gonna...

Jesse, you alright?

I got him the job here.
It's just...

He wouldn't even be here
if it wasn't for me.

Yeah, how long's your voice
been like that?

Ah, I don't know.

Well, do you reckon
since the explosion?

Yeah, I guess.
Can I have a look at your face?

Do you remember inhaling anything?

Ah, ah, I don't think so, why?

Hey, Eliza!

What... What...
What do you think's wrong?

Oh, no, I'll just...
What are you worried about?

I'll just let the doc
have a look at you.

Just have a seat over here, mate.

What's wrong?

Yeah, we've got a problem.
I think Jesse has inhalation burns.

OK, just a little wider
for me, mate. That's it.

Yeah, there's swelling
in the throat and pharynx.

And there's soot
on the soft palate and uvula.

That was my read.

What's wrong with him?

The problem with burns
is that they swell.

There's a chance his airway
could close over, which is why

we want to put a tube in.

But to do that,
we need to put you to sleep.

But that might not happen, right?

We could wait?

Well, if it obstructs
and we don't have a tube in,

you won't be able to breathe.

We need to let your family know.
Is there anyone I can call?

Yeah, there's Mum.
She's at work.

Let's give her a try.

Her name's Shelley.

(PHONE RINGS)

RFDS, Graham speaking.

Ah, Graham, it's Pete.
Can you please put Matty on for me?

Patching you through.
Matty, Pete on the line.

Oh, can you take these off?
Oh, yeah.

Pete. I'm just on a plane
with a young protege.

Where are you?

Ah, Carrion Mine, mate.
Haul truck caught fire.

There's been an explosion.

Yeah, I heard about that.

Yeah, so, we've now got
a second Priority 1.

23-year-old male, 85 kilos.

He's got inhalation burns,
and we've only got one ventilator.

Is there any chance you can do it?

Yeah, no, shouldn't be a problem.

I'll let you know, though,

we do have a young patient onboard.

Well, it's not ideal, mate.

But he's a young fella
and he's in a lot of trouble.

Graham, what do you reckon?
Carrion Mines, 85kg.

We can make it work.

OK. On our way, Pete.

OK. Thanks.

How'd you get on?
Matty's diverting.

Flight time's 45 minutes.
Who's that you're trying?

Their mother.

Voicemail again.

Shelley, hi.

My name's Eliza Harrod.
I'm a doctor with the RFDS.

There's been an accident
at Carrion Mine.

I'm here with your two sons.

Can you please give me
a call as soon as possible.

Eliza, there's a chance
he'll never wake up.

He needs to speak to his mum.

I know. But we can't wait.

Anaesthetic administered.

How long's it been?

38 seconds. It'll come through.

Just give me your hand.

OK, I want to start with a 7 ETT.

Jason, can you help me
with the blanket, please?

Mum hasn't called.
Ah, not yet.

I want to be the one to tell her.

She can't hear about this
on the news.

Hayden, mate, you don't have
to look over there.

It's my fault, what's happening.

Hey, hey, look at me.
That was an accident.

And those sorts of fires happen
all the time underground.

Yeah, but I didn't
try to put it out.

Jesse went back in. I bolted.

He didn't want me...
He didn't want me to lose my job.

OK, thank you, Jason.

It's alright, mate. It's alright.
He'll be right.

Equal and clear entry.

OK, let's move him.

You take him ahead
and I'll see you in Adelaide.

OK. Jason, let's prep Hayden.

Up on three. One, two.

Easy. Easy lift.

OK. Alright. Come on.

Mate, you're gonna be alright.
Slowly, slowly.

In we get. Perfect.

(SIREN WAILS)

Alright, let's load him up
and get to Adelaide.

How's Graham looking?

Nearly here.
Righto.

Flydoc 257, departing
Carrion Mine 50, tracking 223.

Flydoc 257, cleared Carrion Mine.

How long till we get to Adelaide?

Couple of hours.

And then we go back to Broken Hill?

Yep.

You know, if you want to be
a flight nurse,

you've gotta get used to this.

We spend most
of our lives on planes.

How's the patient?

He's doing well.

He's stable.

Matty, could you put up
another litre of Hartmann's??

It's fluids, right?
Why does he need so much of it?

Well, you know the human body
is made up of roughly 60% water.

He's struggling
to retain those fluids,

so we need to keep doing him up.

(HAYDEN LAUGHS)

Hayden?

What's wrong with him?

Oh, Jesse. Jesse.

That's why I said what I said.
I want to do fair.

(CHUCKLES)

Hayden, Jesse's not here.

That's why I said it, Jesse!
I want to stay in!

He's hallucinating.
Is that normal?

No. No, it's not.

OK, BP is 100 over 80.
That potassium's a little high.

Ah, let's increase
the PEEP a little.

Yep.

You can't say
you're not gonna miss this.

What, crammed in a sardine
can with you, pushing sunset?

Oh, come on, perks of the job.

You know, we moved everything
out of Wyama yesterday.

All Nate and Rhiannon's stuff.

Mate, you didn't tell me.

There's not a lot to say really.

I've been trying to escape
that place since I was a teenager.

I just...

I just didn't think I'd care so much

once it was gone, you know.

I've got Eliza on the phone.

Eliza.
Hi.

I'm curious,
when you examined Hayden,

did anything suggest a head injury?

No, why?

He didn't get thrown in the blast
and lose consciousness at all?

No history of physical signs.
What's going on?

He's confused, hallucinating.

What are you thinking?

Well, it could be a head injury

or or hypoxia
from carbon monoxide poisoning.

Unlikely to cause
that kind of reaction.

Or drug use?

I doubt it. Not in the mines.

Matty, how much ketamine
did you give him?

10mg.
Are you sure?

Check your syringes.

Ah, I mixed up the flushes.
They're all 10mil syringes.

How much have you given him?

100mg.

He's disassociated.

You OK?
Yeah. We'll be fine.

I'll call ahead to the hospital
and give them a heads up.

We'll see you on the ground.

Is he gonna be alright?
He's going to be fine.

What do you want me to do?

I want you to watch
for a respiratory depression,

hypertension, brachycardia.

And do a set of obs now, please.
(PHONE RINGS)

RFDS, Graham speaking.

One moment.

I've got Hayden
and Jesse's mum on the line.

Hey, do you want me to get it?

I want you to do
one thing at a time.

Yes, please put her through.

Shelley, hi. It's Doctor Harrod.

Are you the doctor with...
with Hayden and Jesse?

I am. I'm with Hayden.

What's happened?

They were underground
and there was an explosion.

Jesse received burns to his airways,
Hayden to his back.

We're taking them
to the Grace in Adelaide now.

Adelaide? Oh, god. How bad are they?

They're stable for now.
Can you get to the hospital?

And, Shelley, is there someone
you can bring with you?

Why? They'll be OK, right?

They're gonna be OK.

We'll know more
when we get them to hospital,

but we're doing everything we can.

(SHELLEY SOBBING)

You need to get to Adelaide now.

OK. Right.

I'm so sorry.

Hey, if you see Darren...

I'll let him know you're here.
Thanks.

(LEONIE HUMMING)

Oh, I'm sorry!
Sorry.

I'm sorry,
I didn't mean to intrude.

No, no, no, you're not.

Are you alright?
Yeah, yeah, I'm good.

I'm just meditating.

I thought meditating
was supposed to be relaxing.

It is.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)
Sorry.

You're the last person
I should be crying to.

You can cry to me.
No, I won't. I won't do it.

It's just the fundraising ball's
coming up and...

your mum...

she could do everything.

She always said that was you.

Well, that's a lie.

I want to do something
to honour your mum at the ball.

How would you feel about
saying a few words?

Oh.

Oh, I'm not sure.

I don't...

Yep, I know. Sorry.

There's something
I want to show you. Come on.

What?

Recognise it?
It's from Wyama.

Your mum propagated it.

I've never seen it in bloom before.

We moved out of Wyama yesterday.

It's gone.

How do you feel?

Ah, I don't know.

Lighter.

Emptier.

It gave me something to focus on
so now, I don't know.

That's the funny thing about grief.

You find all these ways to avoid it,

but eventually you've gotta
face it, head on.

I ran into Blake.

Think about the ball.
I will.

I was gonna call you,
but I thought

this'd be more dramatic.

(CHUCKLES) Yeah.

I saw the clearing sale
in the paper.

Yeah. I've processed it.

Threw a dirt clod
at the shearers' quarters.

Four generations, and that's how
you're gonna say goodbye?

What, you got a better idea?

After my mum died
and we moved in with Timmy,

and we had to pack everything up.

Never got to say goodbye to her.

You said I never tell you anything.

So, how're we gonna do this?

Thought you had some big idea.

You got any fireworks?

Matches.
We packed everything away.

Well.

Goodbye, Wyama!

Goodbye, Wyama!

See you later, you sucker!

And we're gonna
miss you one bit!

(LAUGHS) Hey.
What?

I know where the matches are.
Come on.

Adelaide approach, Flydoc 257,
descending via the star,

9,000
received. Bravo.

Flydoc 257,
descend via the star to 5,000.

This is Dr Harrod.
We're coming in from Carrion Mine.

23-year-old male
with inhalation burns,

his brother is 21 years old
with burns to his back.

He's been given 100mg of ketamine
and he's disassociated.

The mother will be arriving
at the night.

How's he going?

He's been stable throughout.

Airway's clear. No terrors.

Hospital's about 12 minutes away,
but at this hour,

I reckon we can do in 5.

Good.

See you on the plane, mate.
Yeah.

You know, I reckon
we can still come out here,

even if someone else is living here.

What? Trespass? Oh!

You've got 60,000 hectares.
I mean, who's gonna notice us?

I know Dad drove
into that tree on purpose.

Doesn't matter
what the inquest says.

I know he killed Mum
and he tried to kill me too.

And I know everyone else knows it.

It's just what it is.

He wasn't well, Tay.

He couldn't let go of this place.

Flydoc 257, top of descent,
Broken Hill. Request clearance.

Flydoc 257,
clear to leave control area.

You still want to be a flight nurse?

You're kidding?
This was the best day ever.

Is Eliza still in there?
Yeah, she is, mate.

Her obs have been stable,
just, you know...

Hey.
Hey.

You alright?

Yeah.

Matty will have to be reviewed.

I mean, it could have
been a lot worse.

He could have given them
Roc or Fentanyl.

That boy could be paralysed.

Yeah, but he didn't.
And he's not.

We just all had a massive day.

It's not about today.

It's about everything.

Eliza.

Sorry.

No, it's... It's alright.

(SNIFFLES)

No, you're alright.
Let's just go out and get a drink.

(LAUGHS) Yeah.

Oh, I would. I would.

But Henry's here. And Ed.

Let me give you a lift home.

If you're gonna tell me
how badly I messed up,

trust me, I already know.

Mistakes are hard.

And that's what you learn from.
Not the stuff you get right.

I didn't think
pilots ever stuffed up.

12 years ago, 3:00am,

coming back from Adelaide,
10,000ft, I get a warning.

Seatbelt lights come on.

Oxygen masks drop down.

There's no pressure in the cabin.

Forgot to switch the bleed
valves on.

We're all human.
We all make mistakes.

What's crucial
is how you handle them.

You try and get some sleep.

You won't. But try.

(SIGHS)

I'd ask you to come up, but...

Look, this is probably
not the right thing to say,

but this, what's here,

it means something.

It means something to me too.

And I know it's not as simple
as making a decision,

but I...

I just wanted you to know that.

Do you mind if we just
sit here for a bit?

Hey. How was work?

I'm glad to be home.

Can I ask you something?

Yes.

Did you ever really
want to come out here?

I want...

I wanted to do
what you needed to do.

Do you want to go back to London?

Yeah.

Have a good night.
You too.

Timmy!

Darren!

(SNORING)

(BIRD CHIRPS)

Hey. Mate, what are you...

What time is it?

Mate, I've been
thinking about Wyama.

You can't pull up stumps
without saying goodbye.

Alright. Well, you...

Wayne! Mate, where are you going?

We are going out there, OK?

What, Wayne, now?

Packed all the food away.

You hungry?
I'm starving.

You wanna drive back into town?
Not really.

Well, what do you want to do then?

Um, I wanna eat,
but I wanna stay here.

I don't know how to go about that.

(CHUCKLES)

That's my dad's car.

You know what you're doing?

Yeah, a bit.

Mate, hey, are you alright?

Yeah.

It's not that I don't
appreciate the gesture.

It just feels like
something's going on.

Yeah, I guess I just...

I don't know, I just keep thinking.

I don't really like cities.

Hey, but you lived
in Sydney for, what?

Ten years. I don't like hospitals.

I don't like studying.

You...you don't like studying?

I hate sitting down on a Sunday

knowing I've got a full day
of work ahead of me.

Why do you do it?

(EXHALES) 'Cause I have to.

Don't reckon you do, though.

If you're having second thoughts,
mate, you can always stay here.

Leonie'd kill me.

(CHUCKLES)
Oh, I reckon she'd get over it.

Oi!

What are you doing here?

You got any food?

Hopeless.

Didn't your uncle ever teach you
if you come out to the bush,

you bring food?

Got any more?
Nuh.

Thanks.

I don't hate it out here.

I could just never
stand the silence.

Need to be around people.

I love it.

I never ask you
what you want to do.

Why are you asking me now?

I don't know.

I want to be an engineer.

I was thinking of asking Leonie
about an apprenticeship.

I think that's a great idea.

What do you want to do?

No clue.

It's beautiful out here.

Peaceful.

So, you're a convert?

That surprises you?

The "arse end of the world"
I think you described it.

That was a fair description
at the time.

You were leaving me.

How was work?

You did always love a big
multiple casualty kind of...

Lize?
