Just...

Give me my fucking towel back!

Jo!

Seriously!

Why won't you help me?

Emma was my best friend.

She was also the best person I've ever known.

At school, she would not be led.

And she never cared what others thought.

Even in the face of the greatest challenge imaginable.

Emma continued to just...

..be Emma...

..to be courageous and good...

..to do what was right...

..and never what was easy.

- Jo? - Oh, really?

Hi, Ronnie.

Briohny. Portia.

Hello again.

Again?

Alice's concert.

Jo served us canapes.

Well, Red House reunions just get better and better.

It's fitting. We were always cursed.

Remember Sarah and the cello case?

And the fire.

What fire?

Alice.

Oh, you mean Kanga's trick with the body spray?

Oh, yeah, no, I remember that,

but would we really call that a fire?

- No, we wouldn't. - Yeah.

To be honest, I always thought it was you that did that, Jo.

No, I didn't.

Yeah, Sarah did the shit, and you set Alice on fire.

That's not what happened.

You sure?

Alice set herself on fire.

I haven't seen her since school.

Apparently, she's writing.

What do you want, Jo? It's Emma's funeral.

Alice, What is it you think I did to you?

Why are you letting this be such a big deal?

I mean, look at you. You're fine.

You're the most successful out of all of us.

Yeah, and that makes up for everything.

- Up for what? - Silver Creek.

Everything you put me through,

and everything I went through afterwards.

What do you mean?

You don't remember, Jo.

You didn't stand up for me.

It was only ever about you and Portia.

I was your friend, Alice.

Jo!

Wow. Rude.

Yeah, she always was a weirdo.

Exactly why I hate private schools.

All schools have mean girls.

Yeah, but it's worse when there's money involved,

when from birth, you've been told that you're better.

- She called me a bully. - Were you?

She was the first girl I met there, and I didn't want to be a loner.

Then I made new friends.

You ditched her for the cool girls.

Ditching is a strong word.

There's more stir fry, if you want.

Oh, no, thank you.

Were they here the whole time?

They live in their room now.

I'm still working out what I feel.

Well, what's the hold up?

They're nice, and they're into you.

Of course you don't want that. That'd be way too wholesome.

- Ruby! - I'm just...

..not keen on you leading them on.

I live here, too, you know?

I had this dream last night

that I kissed Leila from Jade House.

We were walking to dinner, and... then we were in the trees.

There were other people around, I think.

And then we kissed.

And then what happened?

We just kissed for ages.

It was...

..it was nice.

You don't...like-like Leila, do you?

It's just a dream. It doesn't mean anything.

But that's what I'm wondering.

I've heard it skips children.

But every third child has it.

Has what?

You know.

- The gay gene. - You're not gay!

OK, that's just crazy.

It's just a dream.

What are you staring at?

What?

You were watching me, that's what.

Oh, God, she's still looking.

Portia...

You're walking around practically naked.

- It's a bit hard not to.

Were you looking too?

No, of course not.

What are you...

..a dyke?

- Are you a dyke? - What are you on about?

Jo, you saw, was she perving on me?

Jo, tell her.

I don't know. I didn't see.

You didn't see?

What the fuck, Jo?

I was packing.

Hmm.

You know, I've seen Emma watching us getting dressed before.

I didn't want to say anything at the time,

but we can't have a lesbian in the house with us.

I'm not a lesbian. I wasn't looking at her like that.

I've never looked at anyone like that.

But I saw you. No use lying.

This is crazy! You're crazy.

Such a lesbian thing to say.

Seriously, Joanna, don't even look at me right now.

I'm one of the only people here who still cares about you.

I'm sorry.

Do you hate me now?

Don't be a dickhead.

You are far from perfect.

But you have so much going on for you.

You're one of the smartest girls here.

Seriously!

When are you going to stop being so fucking weak?

Don't forget,

bring whatever you've got.

I don't care if it's your grandma's Baileys,

just make sure you have something.

And by that, I mean, alcohol.

What's wrong, Joanna?

Just would have be nice to go home for the weekend, alright?

Everyone else did.

Your mother and I thought it'd be fun to explore the area.

Yeah, fun for who?

Honestly, we've driven all this way just to see you.

Great.

Thanks.

Room number two, with a view.

Bags the top!

- This is cosy. - Oh, very nice.

Right. Who wants to go on a bushwalk?

There's a waterfall and a lookout that we can reach from here.

No, thanks.

What do you mean, no, thanks?

I'm sick of bushwalking.

Joanna...

Sorry, Mum.

I just thought I'd catch up on a bit of homework today.

Really?

Alright, then. Suit yourself.

Come on, Archie. Grab your raincoat.

We won't be long.

Can you not move so much?

Can you not suck so much?

Have you seen the wine?

- Did you take it out already? Hey?

- It's there, it's in the door. - No, it's not here.

CAROLINE; It's not here.

Did you put it in the cupboard?

Why would I put it in the cupboard?

Joanna, can I look inside your bag, please?

What? Why?

Mum, you can't do that. That's an invasion of privacy.

Did you steal these?

I...

Jo, what's going on?

What were you planning on doing with this?

Nothing.

What is that place doing to you?

Nothing!

Well, you'd never have done anything like this before.

What other explanation is there?

It's not the school.

You promised me you'd be good.

You never wanted me to go there.

Oh, Joanna, don't be ridiculous.

You never want me to have anything good.

No-one's ever said that.

You want me to live a sad, pathetic life.

Just like you.

OK. I think everyone needs to have a little time out.

No.

I'm not doing anything you say.

And if you want to take me out of that school,

you can drag me out,

because there's no way I'm leaving.

Hey.

You're back.

I'm glad you're OK.

Does it hurt?

A bit.

They said I was lucky it wasn't worse.

Will it scar?

Don't think so.

The hospital food was yuck.

Yeah, bet you missed having a slushie.

Alice, um...

Hey, Mackenzie, show us your loot.

Kanga, you can you can come to.

If you bring your lighter.

So, what did you bring?

Bit of this. Bit of that.

Come on, then. Give us a look.

Um...

I'll unpack first.

Show you later.

Show me.

Now.

There, see?

Wh... Hang on.

What is it?

This is water.

No, it's not. It's vodka.

I tried some before.

It's a good stuff.

I've got some more I haven't unpacked yet.

You can share that later.

Yeah. I'll pass, thanks.

If I need water, I'll hit up a tap.

Oi, Portia. Portia, look what I got from Mum.

I haven't tried it yet.

Have you ever actually had any of that before, Jo?

Of course I have.

Thing is, they're lemon flavoured,

so they're kind of whitish,

not clear like that.

And they're usually sold with a lid on.

Yeah. Like I said, I opened it to try some.

Oi, slushie.

You call this bacon crispy?

What do you think?

Soggy.

Definitely soggy.

Maybe just leave it,

with Portia and stuff.

Try not to be so... I don't know.

Desperate. Yeah?

How are you?

Alright.

That was a peace offering, if it wasn't clear.

Wow.

One sip of that, and I've already forgotten

how awful you were to me.

Look, I didn't break up with Gabby for you.

I did not think that.

It was on the cards well before we hooked up.

I'm sure it was.

And the reason I told you about the breakup

was because I thought that we were mates.

I wasn't... I wasn't expecting you to ask me out or anything, OK?

I don't...I don't even want that.

Well, that's a shame.

What is?

That you don't want to go out with me,

'cause I was just about to ask.

You were not.

I was going to suggest a late dinner,

tonight, after I finished work.

But if you're not interested...

Fucking hell, Jo.

Oh, come on, Mackenzie.

That funeral was intense,

and I really didn't expect to see you there.

Yes, you made that clear.

I don't know why I acted like that.

Can we be friends?

And that's the thing people do, right?

I feel like doing something fun tonight.

- I have plans. - I can wait.

I have plans for after.

Are they important?

Get in!

Alright, people, keep your hands inside the vehicles at all times.

Other than that, our road rules are...

..there are no rules!

If you can't beat 'em, dodge 'em!

What happened to Alice Kang?

After Silver Creek.

I hardly saw her at senior school.

I think it really affected her.

Silver Creek was supposed to be hard.

That was the whole point.

We were kids...

..left in the bush, alone.

What was I supposed to do?

We only have ourselves.

Except you had me.

Jo?

I was waiting for you.

I texted. I said I'd be late.

Come on, let's get you to bed.

Oh!

Can we still going on our date?

Another time?

I knew it...

I knew I shouldn't have trusted you.

Saskia...

We will go on our date, OK?

I said we would.

Actually... you didn't.

Snap.

You two in for dinner?

Yeah, we are.

No, I'm not.

It's my dad's birthday.

You enjoy that, then.

Since when do you go to that?

Ruby, I'm trying.

So, what's the problem?

I've been spending a bit more time with Portia.

- Nothing's happened. - Yeah, well, thank fuck.

She's your high school bully.

That's the literal definition of toxic.

Why can't you just talk to Saskia?

Be kind. Be honest.

Like it's that easy.

Well, it'll be way harder if they found out some other way.

For them, and me.

On the satellite image, we can see a band of cloud

moving up the New South Coast...

Jo!

What a lovely surprise.

Happy birthday.

Thank you.

What have we got here?

Oh, wonderful!

Haven't read this one.

He's looking good!

No, he's not. He's too fat.

Trialling a new diet.

No more snacking.

Oh, OK. Cool.

Can we not have phones out tonight?

Thank you.

Can you take that to the table, please?

Jo, why aren't you up yet?

I was sick in the night.

I think I have gastro.

You don't have a temperature.

I'll get you some charcoal tablets. That'll set you right for the hike.

Ugh. Come.

Uh, oof!

- You OK? - Ugh...

Survival of the fittest, Mackenzie.

Can you guys hurry up?

Hmm?

Mmm.

- Delicieux!

Then what the fuck DO you want?

Mmm!

Come up!

Say freeze!

Freeze!

- Wrong way, right way? - Yeah, right way.

Fuck's sake!

- Oh, so good. - So the favourite.

What's the matter?

You've hardly said a word all day.

I'm fine.

Just tired.

It's a bit fucking dramatic, isn't it?

But, like, that would hurt, as well.

Right?

Do something that's a little less painful.

Hey, wait. What did Leila tell you?

Helen from purple house slit her wrist.

So, apparently, she did it in the bathroom.

So, she was, like, standing in a puddle of her own blood.

I heard it was by the boiler - over the fire, you know?

- Spooky.

She should have done it in the chapel.

Then it would have been religious.

Like a sacrifice.

What?

She should have strung herself up on the cross...

..slit her wrists...

..hung there,

like Jesus.

We all would have seen her as we walked down for breakfast.

Fuck, Portia.

Why would you say something like that?

Yeah, you're really sick sometimes.

Whatever.

OK, but, like, where would you do it?

Like, obviously, Miss Constantine's room, right?

Nah, in bed. Comfortably.

Did you hear about Archie's new promotion?

Manager.

It's a very good salary, by London standards.

He and Kate are thinking about buying.

So what about you, Jo?

Any news?

Not really.

I went to a funeral.

Oh.

I'm sorry to hear that, Joanna.

Whose was it?

- An old friend... - Mmm.

..from Silver Creek.

Well, that's...too young.

Why would you care about anyone from Silver Creek?

You hated that place.

I didn't hate it.

I just didn't see what all the fuss was about.

You're already at a very good school.

But I wanted to go somewhere better.

Did you ever think about that?

If you'd have supported me,

maybe things would have gone differently for me.

Maybe I'd be doing better.

What's so funny?

I don't think it would have made a shred of difference

what either of us thought, back then.

That's not true.

You only cared about impressing your new friends.

I was a teenager.

Well, to be fair, you weren't like that

before you went to Silver Creek.

When you went in there, you were such a good girl -

very respectful, ambitious.

So? I grew up.

And then out you came -

a problem child.

You know, you can just say the WORD, Mum.

- Lesbian. - Joanna!

You have always done exactly what you wanted to do.

We never pulled you out of that school.

And we are not the reason that your life hasn't turned out

the way you wanted it to.

My life is fine.

Maybe it's time to accept

you're just not as good as you think you are.

Jo...

Please don't.

Let her go, Keith.

She didn't want to be here in the first place.

- Wow! Gorgeous. - Special!

I know!

Special, special, special.

What can I say? What do you say? Best for the best?

Best for the best? Is that us?

- Should we go hunting? - Hunting?

- For snakes. - For snakes!

What are you doing?

I'm going to set up my mat.

There's no room.

There's a spot in the corner.

There's no room, Joanna! Get it?

Why are you still here?

Why are you being like this?

Can you just fuck off?

Come on, Jo. We've saved you a spot here.

See?

Your friends are in the other tent.

It'll be you soon.

And then someone else. And then someone else.

And then there'll be no-one left.

- OK.

Cool. Well, you can fuck right off, then.

- BYE!

Bye, Joanna!

No, guys, seriously, who's next? I'm scared.

Is it you?

She's still out there! What the fuck?

- Fuck off! - Standing there.

Hey, loner.

I wish you'd been with me last night.

Over here.

Oi, oi, oi.

Is everything alright?

Tell me I'm not imagining this.

You knew, right?

How I felt about you at Silver Creek?

What I would have done for you.

Yes.
