Original subtitles

Gavin Rose?

He's literally just sitting there all by himself.

Gav does not deserve that kid, man.

Sorry there's no booster seats, little buddy.

Um, I wasn't expecting an underage passenger.

Axel?!

Oh.

There was these two men. What men?

'Cause you're already perfect in every single way.

Amen to that. Simon! You're back!

I didn't know you... Oh, yay.

Doctor Nadel called.

Thought you might want to talk about your meds.

I'm actually trying to find Terence O'Reilly.

He's my brother.

Do you know where I could find him? St. Edith's.

What you gonna do with a priest?

Stop him from being a kiddy-fiddler?

That's my car!

What in God's name is going on?

Ed Kennedy. What the hell do you want?

Once you get rid of that A, it'll spell Ed.

Pretty fitting for a local hero.

Not many vigilantes get that 'a' in the right spot.

Do they, Josie?

I really am sorry. Hazard of the job nowadays.

People are angry. Fair enough.

Our lot's done an appalling job of protecting the innocent so far...

Why don't you ask before defacing private property

and besmirching a good man's name?

It's OK, Josie. No it's not, Father.

He's been the priest at this church for over 30 years,

and is the most decent man I know.

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Tea?

Ed strikes me as more of a coffee man.

Is there anything you need help with?

Oh, is that why you're here, Ed? To help me?

Alright, I know I'm not off to a great start, but, yeah.

People tend to land on my doorstep

because they need my help in some kind of way.

Oh, no, not me. No, I'm fine.

See you tomorrow, Father.

Thank you, Josie.

Sorry again about your car.

She really likes you.

Yeah, well, who wouldn't?

Um, did you...

Did you know my dad?

Gregor Kennedy?

Don't think so.

That'll be the neighbours. Excuse me.

Sorry that took so long.

They're always arguing.

Oh, sounds like my parents.

It's a pity you weren't next to them.

You OK, Ed?

Who's Angie Caruso?

Why are you asking?

Um...

Yeah, ah, I get these cards with names on them,

and her name's on it, and yours.

Yeah, it's why I'm here.

I, ah...

I help people.

I know it sounds weird, but...

My brother put you up to this? No, no, no.

No, no, but I met him and he told me where to find you.

I think you'd better leave.

Angie Caruso is the name on an urn in his lounge room.

How the hell am I supposed to help a dead woman?

Can I see the card?

Do you really think your dad's behind this?

Oh, I don't know.

I mean, you know, that'd be like...

Have you been to his grave yet?

Oh, why would you use dynamite

when there's just been an avalanche...

Ed, you have to go.

Ugh!

I'll go with you if you like.

Why are you so nice?

Because I'm a little ray of effing sunshine.

Hey! Tony!

It's, ah... It's me again.

Hey, thanks for the help. Found your brother.

Good for you.

He looks, um, well.

Does he now?

Um, do you know who Angie Caruso is?

Get the hell away from me and don't come back.

I don't know. Those two are hiding something.

Maybe they both killed her.

It's OK to be anxious.

About two psycho brothers? Yeah, agreed.

Nice try, Ed. You know what I'm talking about.

Yeah.

I know I should have been here before now.

It's just... I don't know.

The day of his funeral's like a blur,

and I sort of remember the service.

I don't know, but since then it's been work, and you guys,

and the card stuff...

Here it is.

It's Gregor Kennedy.

Row E, Plot 5.

Mining accident.

Black lung.

Car crash.

Hey, what do posh people die of?

Here lies Tiffany.

Crushed by a chandelier.

Champagne corks must take out a few, hey?

Mm, those things are quite dangerous.

Hey, that's me!

James "Jimmy" Reynolds.

Loving father to Walter and Robin?

Bloody hell, I've got kids.

Devoted husband to... Elizabeth?

Maybe Milla's a nickname.

Oh, maybe he has an identical twin?

With the same name?

Maybe he was married to Milla first, or...

Or Jimmy's a cheating arsehole.

Hey!

I found Row E.

Ready?

E2.

E3.

E... 4.

Oh, seriously?

My dad is in an unmarked grave.

What the hell is wrong with my family?

Like, I get my mum, like, not giving a shit.

I get that. But Tommy?

I mean, what? Yeah, man.

That's next level cold.

Well, the cheapest headstone is two grand.

Maybe we can try and make one.

No, it'd just look crap.

Well, we'll help you.

And you're gonna need help 'cause you're all trash, baby.

Speaking of next level cold.

Oh, uh...

How's... how's the card going, Ed?

Well, all I know is that Angie is dead.

Father O'Reilly has her ashes.

And, oh, she won a singing contest in the '70s.

OK, so maybe he's a serial killer, right?

With bodies in jam jars all over the place.

Like...

Sorry, am I going too dark?

Yeah, mm-hm.

Why isn't she in the ground?

He lives beside a cemetery, yeah?

Yeah, he does.

Can we all go to Father O'Reilly's church service

on Sunday, please?

Hell no. No, come on!

I can't go by myself. No!

Come on! I'll... I'll come.

Yes!

Last time I went to church was primary school.

I still can't believe you guys went to school with nuns.

Do you remember Sister Harriet?

Her beard was next level.

Yes! A beard?

God, and she hated everyone, even Amy...

Oh, Amy! That's the one you stabbed, eh?

Well, you'll go. Yes?

Won't you? We all will. To church. Excellent.

No, I'm not going. It's my sleep in day.

Yes, well you can sleep in church, Marv.

I'm not gonna be able to get to sleep

knowing that Father Serial Killer's in there.

What?!

You may all be seated.

Oh, Jesus, Marv. How much did you drink last night?

Oh, just the normal Saturday amount.

Just shut up. Just keep it down.

Do not go near the candles.

Thank you for being here today

in this place of reflection and worship.

A special welcome to the taxi drivers of the world,

who take us to where we think we need to be.

There's an urn with your name on it.

Faith is not passive.

It requires action.

Ohh, wake me up when it's over.

Whenever you ask for a miracle, you receive an instruction,

some sign from God.

Messengers come in all shapes and sizes,

bringing wisdom to all those who are open to it.

The greatest gift you can receive

is the knowledge that you are truly loved.

And one of the true tests of love is asking yourself,

"Am I a better person for having known this individual?"

To know love, and to have faith,

it's as if you're stepping into the light

after a lifetime of darkness.

No longer just living, but really existing.

You were numb, but now can feel.

You were blind, but now can see.

Body of Christ.

Blood of Christ.

What is she doing?

It's not really blood, is it?

Marv, I know you're tight, but that was just embarrassing.

What? The Church is loaded. Yeah, but a pen lid?

Why didn't you just grab the collection plate

and hit the sweet old lady over the head with it?

Piss off.

Look, this hangover's a creeper,

church is even more boring than I remember

and there's a serial killer priest in there.

Yeah, well, I actually listened for the first time

and some of it was OK.

Yeah, I got a lot more out of that than I thought I would.

Yeah, what was with that?

Oh, shit, everybody ignore... Act cool, act cool.

He's coming, he's coming.

It was a real treat to see you and your mates today.

Even scored a pen lid.

We got off on the wrong foot the other day, Ed.

Have you got time for a cuppa?

Ah... Ah, I gotta go, so...

Yeah, me too. Thank you, Father.

Thank you for that sermon. See you later. Thank you.

One sugar, right?

Angie was my sister.

She died a long time ago.

I'm sorry.

It's, ah, hard for me to talk about,

but that is no excuse for my rudeness.

Oh, no, it's OK. Yeah, really.

Not enough sugar?

No, it's great. No, thank you.

Thanks.

Um...

..can I ask how she died?

Oh, sorry, no, I shouldn't have asked.

That's... Sorry, I...

No, it's... it's fine.

She should be laid to rest.

Anyway, she's still here.

Is that you, bub?

Hey!

You OK?

You look a bit flushed.

Yeah, I just... I just rode faster than usual.

What you been doing?

Church.

Church? Mm-hm.

You haven't been for ages.

No, no, not since Nanna used to take me, no.

You seem different.

Yeah, I'm just in a really good mood.

What?

You don't want me to be happy? Of course we do.

Yeah, no, no, no.

It's just... Well, of course what would make me more happy

is you giving us a hand with these lights.

Dream on, Dad.

What's that about? Mm.

Sorry, Nan.

A party? Who wants to go to a party at a church?

OK, well what would make you go? Nothing.

Come on, you have to pick something.

Free beer. OK, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Free beer. Little bit of music, maybe something for the kids.

You know, the brothers are there.

They reconcile on the anniversary of their sister's death.

I get two ticks.

Job done.

That just sounds so easy.

You guys'll help me, yeah?

Oh, come on, Marv! Come on!

Hey, think of all the people you could recruit

for your sledge match.

It's hard for someone to say no when they're holding a free beer.

Mm.

Alright, then. Yes! OK!

I get a deal on the snags, but I'm not helping with the kid stuff.

Says the man with a car full of soft toys, yeah?

Free beer's the big one.

If it was that easy, everyone would be doing it.

Ooh, I got an idea.

Why don't we steal the kegs from the street outside?

Mate, they're empty.

Oh.

Well, get the bloody priest to pay for it, then,

I don't know.

Yes, well, after all, he is the Father, the Son...

And the holy host.

Oh.

Touche.

God, I love you.

A party?

I'll get the whole thing organised,

but if the church could just cover the expenses, that would just...

I know my opulent mansion screams otherwise,

but we don't have much money, I'm afraid.

Can't you just sell a candlestick?

I don't need a party, Ed. People know where to find me.

Come on, don't you want, like, a bigger audience?

Congregation.

Thanks anyway, Ed. I do appreciate the gesture.

Wait.

I have been sent to help you.

And I will.

Doorman. Come here.

I'm sorry I haven't been here much.

Free beer costs a lot.

Hey, what are you doing right now?

Ooh, you really want all this?

Mm.

Let's do it.

Go, go, go, go, go! Go!

Go! Go!

All that commando shit with your dad's really paid off, huh?

Oh, I've been training for this my whole life.

I've hardly seen you this week.

Yeah, I've been working doubles.

Trying to make some money to pay for this party.

Yes, free beer doesn't come cheap.

Oh!

Go! Go, go, go.

Run! Run!

Go, go, go, go.

Um...

I'll see you later.

Yeah.

How was your night?

You OK?

I don't want to go out with you anymore.

That'll last five minutes.

You can't be on your own. Yes, I can.

Oh, yeah? OK.

Grant, that guy from the servo... Oh.

..Liam, Liam's brother...

That was only a week.

..the Spanish tutor, Nile.

Who the hell is Nile? The bank teller.

That was Noel.

Skeeter. Oh, God.

That's just this year!

Well, Skeeter was last year.

In fact, you are so incapable of being on your own,

right, that you called me immediately

to come and hang out with you.

Am I next on your list?

Well, I'm not gay and I don't think you are,

so obviously that's not why I called you.

I might be.

I might not. Like... OK.

Well, how do you know unless you explore your options?

Like, it was all right with Marv,

and surprisingly, the golden dragon is quite roomy.

He's not a liar. What?!

What?

You slept with Marv?! Well, yeah.

Tell me everything!

Well, there was a lot of faux fur, just fucken everywhere.

Thursday. Are you gonna be here? Where would I be without you?

You'd be a total mess, even more so than you already are.

Stop it. Hey. What are you doing?

You've got dirt on your hands. No, stop. You're making it worse.

Seriously. How did I get so lucky?

That's what Ingrid always says.

Jeez, Ed!

Dead Ed.

Well, what are you doing?

Um, so I was just... I was wondering if I could...

..just wondering if I could, uh, borrow your barbecue?

Are you... Are you having a party?

Well, you need mates to have a party, Mum.

It's for a, uh, church thing.

Ha. What sort of a church thing?

Um, this.

Oh, right. Can I borrow the barbecue or not?

There's a knack.

You'll blow your eyebrows off if you don't know how to use it.

You gonna invite me?

What are you doing in town, anyway? It's called visiting Mum.

You should try it.

I'll work it on the day.

I'm glad you're both here, actually.

Um, look, I want to talk about the whole "Dad's no gravestone" thing.

Yeah, it's pretty disrespectful.

Where's this come from?

It's been six months.

Well, I only recently found out, alright?

Oh, Jesus, Ed.

I messaged everyone at the time

and asked what to put on the headstone,

and no-one got back to me.

So buggered if I'm gonna fork out all that cash,

only to have you whinge at me down the track

about what I put on the bloody thing.

Unlike some of us, I have a job and a fiancee.

But if you want to finally step up and organise Dad's headstone,

be my guest.

I'm busy too.

Yeah, it's just like no matter what I do, like,

he always ends up making me feel like crap.

No-one gets under your skin like a brother.

Tony and I haven't spoken in years.

Is that about your sister?

Everyone responds differently to grief.

And guilt.

My, um...

My dad, uh, died six months ago.

Oh, Ed, I'm so sorry.

People we love never really leave.

Mmm.

Dad!

Dad! Dad!

Hello.

Who gave you those, Doorman?

Where's my boy? Hey?

Hey, Ed.

I've been watching you, Ed Kennedy.

You stay away from my kid.

Ed? Ed?

Babe, can you hear me?

Ed. Ed.

Oh, my God.

What happened?

Oh, Gavin Bose.

Gavin Bose? Jesus, why?

Don't answer, OK? We're going to hospital.

No, no, I'm OK.

What are you doing here?

I was just driving past and...

You look different.

Nice. Is that... Is that lip gloss?

As if.

Up you hop.

It doesn't look too bad, does it?

Nah. I can still go to the party, yeah?

Yeah, totally. Of course, yeah.

Yeah, bro. Great.

Bro, did, um... did Gavin mention me?

Oh, yeah. Yeah, you're next.

I was so good to that kid, man. I gave him toys and everything.

What are you doing? Sit down.

I've gotta get Mum's barbecue.

We'll take care of the set up.

Yeah, and all you've gotta do is not traumatise the kiddies.

Oh. Um...

Oh, shit.

There is something you have to do.

It'd mean a lot if you came.

Oh.

Hey. Hi.

Yeah.

Hi, Tony.

What happened to you?

Nothing. You look like a demented raccoon.

Anyone who gets involved with my brother gets hurt.

Look, this has got nothing to do with him...

Why are you so obsessed with my family?

Ed, maybe we should just tell him the truth.

It was actually Terry who sent the invite.

He asked Ed not to say anything. He didn't want you to know.

But he really wants to make amends.

Please come to the party.

You did it.

I hope he reads the room

and doesn't lean too much into the God stuff.

Haven't had a congregation this big

since Moledale were in the grand final!

It's wonderful for you all to be here today and...

Thank you for coming today to this place of reflection and worship.

Proverbs 17:17.

A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity.

This town is at its best... I'm so sorry.

..when we're there for each other.

Laugh and cry and support each other.

And that begins just by being together.

So I invite everyone to be together every Sunday,

here in this place.

Let us pray.

Lord, I thank you for this glorious day

and for all these magnificent people.

I thank you for free beer.

Most of all, though, I thank you for family.

For brothers...

..and sisters...

..and friends.

I also thank you for those who are no longer with us...

..and the precious gifts they left us.

Feel free to say your own prayer.

Thanks, everyone.

Let the party begin.

Whoo!

Whoo!

You've put on weight.

Must be all the wafers.

You want a beer?

Don't drink.

Is there somewhere we could talk?

Yeah.

Oh, you've had a nose job.

Uh, I thought you'd like this.

Whoa.

Third place at Regionals.

I would smile more, but it hurts.

How's it going, ma'am?

Are you and/or your dad

interested in Moledale's premier fundraising event?

That's right, you got it. It's a Sledge Match.

Now, there's no skills required,

other than an extensive repertoire of trash talk.

Thoughts? I will let you know.

Yeah, yeah, no worries. Send me a text.

You know where to find me.

New Sledge player, huh?

Are those free?

Oh, for real? Mm-hm.

Where's Ritch? She loves a sausage.

Maybe she's trying to get out of a parking ticket.

Mmm.

Come and dance, Jimmy.

Were you defending my honour?

Oh.

Uh, yeah, something like that, yeah.

So lovely being out together like this.

Mmm.

So, when did we meet, again, Milla?

Oh, that's never gonna get old.

OK.

Come on.

Shitbox.

OK.

Um...

OK, OK, OK.

Um, can someone help?!

Hey? You alright?

What?

Gather round, people.

Not gonna be another sermon, just wanted to say a few words.

It's been a wonderful day.

Thank you so much for coming along.

I hope you made some new friends, reconnected with old ones.

A huge thank you to our local hero, Ed.

None of this would have been possible without him.

Where's Ed? Ed.

Ed. Come on, Ed. A few words. Speech!

No. No.

Come one! Come on, you did it.

Ah, I'm...

Uh, today's a special day for lots of reasons.

Angie Caruso died on this day.

She was a talented musician.

She used to perform with her brothers, Tony and Terence.

They're right there.

Um, they...

Um...

Yeah. Ah...

Just, uh, yep. Thanks for coming.

Ed!

You have to find them.

So I can stuff things up even more?

No, so you don't feel like shit after a really good day.

It was all the lad's idea. For God's sake, Terry.

For once in your life, take responsibility.

I have spent my life trying to atone.

I joined the church to help others...

You joined the church to hide.

That is not true.

Then why is she still in that thing?

She should have been laid to rest years ago.

Instead, she's still in that bloody vase

because you are a selfish arsehole.

You have to let her go.

I don't know how.

I failed her that night.

We both did. It's both our fault.

I was the one driving!

I was the reason we were arguing.

Pissed, as usual.

Should have been us three up there today.

Angie would have loved it.

Why the hell did I invite him? 'Cause he's your brother.

Where did you get that?

Ah, I put it aside for the staff.

Ed. Finish your story.

Um, well, they scattered her ashes under a tree,

and they sang together.

You would have loved the little service.

It was just beautiful.

Oh. Doorman, man.

Oh, mate. Oh!

No, it's fine. It'll be fine once Ingrid gets here.

Her perfume could power a nuclear station.

Oh. Hi, Ingrid.

What happened to your face?

Oh, this aggro passenger, so...

Mate, you need to get a proper job.

OK. Um, you know these guys.

Yeah, 'course.

Hey. Hi.

Hi. Hey.

This place is smaller than I remember.

I can't believe that dog's still alive.

Doesn't smell like it, though.

Yeah, good, good one.

Um, I'll, uh... I'll show you around.

Just come this way.

It's, uh...

Fuck, he's the man, eh?

What?

Everything's the same.

I forgot about this.

Huh.

Dad used to hide it in weird spots to make me laugh.

Classic Dad.

And then she tapped me on the bum, put the offer in my pocket

and we ended up selling two that day.

And the old lady from the first house

called me her guardian angel.

She could finally move up to the Gold Coast.

Yeah, well, Ed was a bit of a saint today too.

That church went off.

It was jam-packed.

People loved it.

So I hear Sledge is still a thing. Still a thing?

Bro, it's THE thing, you know?

I'm the coach and captain this year, so, yeah, yeah.

Not bad. Yeah.

You know I used to be pretty good at rugby.

I know. You were the man at rugby, bro.

You were the best player in Under 16s, bro.

I know you. Seven tries and four goals.

You're the man, and I used to watch you run,

and I wanted to run like you.

You need a cab?

I've got one coming.

How's the gravestone going?

Oh, well, I've actually been really busy,

but, um, I'll get onto it soon, yeah.

I'm sure you will.

Are you alright?

You've still got the pig.

What?

The pig.

Piss off.

You've got a house full of his stuff.

Dad didn't just belong to you, you know.

Give it back. Nuh.

You want it? Give it back. I mean it.

Is this what you want? Why don't you just get it?

Hey, you want it, grab it.

Tommy. No, just grab it.

Tommy. No, if that's what you want...

Tommy. Tommy. Give it...

What are you doing? Tommy, give it back!

Hey...

Argh!

Jesus.

Alright, psychopath.

What are you do...?

Argh! Argh!

ARGH! Alright!

Jeez, OK, OK, OK. Just...

Have it, then.

It's a stupid lousy pig.

See you later, bro.

You OK?

Whoa!

Hey! Hey, I'm in here!

Stop!

Argh!

It's OK. It's OK.

Argh!

I am the messenger.

Ritchie, you can't...

Well, I have, so...

Tell me who is behind this.

You can have the whole world, or you can have Moledale.

What on earth would keep you here?

Ed, I've no idea what you're talking about...

Don't lie to me.

I don't know what I was thinking. I don't need you.

Awesome. So it's settled, then.
