Home-grown alligator See you later

Gotta hit the road Gotta hit the road

Something changed In the atmosphere

Architecture unfamiliar

I could get used to this

Time flies by In the yellow and green

Stick around And you'll see what I mean

There's a mountain top That I'm dreaming of

If you need me You know where I'll be

I'll be riding shotgun Underneath the hot sun...

Did you feel that?

My ears just popped.

I prefer my ears popping on a plane.

Well, then you'd have missed out

on all this beautiful scenery, wouldn't you, baby?

Trees, trees, and more trees.

We're nearly there now, Mia.

How long? Um...

41 minutes if we don't make any more wrong turns.

Just a straight road from here!

What is the matter with this thing? Why doesn't it work?

Dad!

Remind me again who the biggest danger to our family is.

HE BREATHES HEAVILY

Wow.

What, did they win the lottery? Eh?

Hey, hey!

Welcome one and all!

Ah, Bouncer! Bruiser!

Come here, big man. Look at ya! Oh!

God, you've been looking after yourself.

Look at that! You know me.

How was the drive?

What's not to love about two teenagers in a car for seven hours?

Oh, you're here now. Give us a cuddle.

Oh, no, no, I've had a minor near-death experience.

It was the bloody roos! Was it that guy there? Hey.

Hey. I warned you about them.

I don't care, come here. It's good to see you.

Come see Lou, she's dying to see you.

Come on in. Your house is amazing, Brad.

Are you sure you ain't robbed a bank, mate? I'm worried.

You get more bang for your buck out here.

You should see this place. It goes all the way down to the cliffs.

It's beautiful. Kip, help him with the luggage.

Yeah, go on. You like it?

I'm shocked. Huh?

Shocked. Come here, buddy.

I can't believe it.

Come see Lou, she's dying to see you. come on in.

Wow.

MIA: Air con that works!

The outside's so nice, I can't believe you've scrimped in here (!)

THEY LAUGH

I take full credit for the design,

but the decoration's all this lovely lady.

I do have my talents! Lou!

Sar! Oh, watch out.

I told you it was the kangaroo's fault.

Yeah, nothing to do with the driver, eh, Mia? You know it.

This must be the great waterslide injury.

Yeah, yeah, not the best start to a school holiday, eh, son?

Wow, it's so good to see you all. And you.

Good to see you.

I've been dying for this. Been too long.

Grab a cool drink, anyway.

Yeah, get a drink, everyone. We'll give you the grand tour.

Bit of mint? Yes, yes.

We've got the whole place on solar power

cos there's no such thing as a grid out here.

So no Uber Eats, then? BRAD CHUCKLES

No deliveries. Best bit about it, too far from anyone to bother us.

Right, Tommy Boy, we've got you in there with young Kip.

What could possibly go wrong, huh?

And for Mum and Dad, the master guest suite.

And, Mia, you're down here, you've got your own en suite.

Oh, thanks, Lou. And we're just down the hall.

KIP: What's down there?

That's my office, mate.

Yeah, off limits for this week. Ooh.

Are you gonna be all right with that, mate?

Come on, I've got my oldest and dearest pals here.

No work.

BEEPING

I mean, seriously,

how much did they get for their last place?

I know they sold it at a good time,

but this is like... this is a major step up!

They won't wanna stay at ours again, I know that.

Sarah?

Don't do this.

Do what? Compare us to them.

Come on, can't we just enjoy this time together?

Course we can.

Do you wanna use the shower first? No, no, you go.

PHONE BUZZING

BUZZING STOPS

You know I was grounded for a month.

Now he raids my iPad to make sure

I'm not looking at anything I shouldn't be.

Bet you barely got in trouble at all, did you?

You hate pools.

What really happened to your arm?

SHE SNIFFLES

SHE EXHALES

Sarah.

There you are. Just admiring the view.

Hey!

I'm fine, just the trip took it out of me.

Oh.

Steve didn't want to fly into Bendigo or something?

Oh... We would've picked you up.

Yeah, I know, but he thought the drive would be fun for the kids.

Famous last words!

Worried about the boys?

No, I'm sure they've learnt their lesson from last year.

Is it Mia? You didn't say too much on the phone.

Nah.

On a scale of one to us at their age?

Oh, we were way worse.

You've got nothing to worry about, then.

Oh, I really have missed you. Yeah.

So glad you're here. At last!

Cheers. Cheers.

PHONE BUZZING

I told you not to ring me.

Yes.

I'll tell Sarah. It's not an easy conversation to have.

Have you got the Wi-Fi code?

Who were you talking to?

Oh, just, er... checking the weather app.

We literally just heard 20 weather forecasts on the radio.

Why don't you go and ask Louise or Kip, babe? Yeah?

Hey, how's your arm?

It's OK.

I am sorry.

I tell you, this never gets old, mate.

Country life's for me, that's for sure.

Got you working many hours at the firm now?

Well, you know what insurance companies are like,

as many as they need.

Mm. Still thinking of going out on your own?

I'm keeping my options open. Sure.

We were worried that Kip's grades had suffered

doing remote learning at first,

but actually, they didn't suffer at all.

He was always a good student, so, yeah.

I must say, the tree change, you know, it suits you. Aw.

It does, huh? We love it.

We do. Yeah, it's brilliant.

Although it doesn't matter where you are, it's who you're with, eh?

Yeah.

All right, Mia, take a seat.

So, playing cricket, mate?

Who's that with? The senior spinners?

Did I hear something about a tournament?

No, it's just something I do with the lads.

I'm not hungry.

Just give me a sec, yeah?

Can you please come back down?

I can't pretend. They're our friends.

SHE SIGHS

OK.

Listen, I know you're still upset.

This isn't just about me.

What about what Dad's doing to you? Mia!

No, I don't understand. How can you not confront him?

We both know he didn't go on that cricket weekend.

And I caught him on his phone acting all weird again.

Can we just please make this a nice week?

But the whole holiday is twisted.

He's down there living his best life, acting like nothing's wrong.

I'm sorry, Mum, but...

..you need to wake up.

He's having an affair.

And it's all gonna blow up in our faces.

I know what you're thinking, man.

You think we're mental, don't you, moving out here to the sticks?

No, I don't think that.

Come on!

Give us a year, then we'll be back in the rat race.

No, I can see why you've done it.

Everything seems so different out here, you know?

All this space.

Yeah, it definitely puts things in perspective, you know?

Sorry about Mia. You know, she's 17...

It's that age, don't worry about it, mate.

They rebel, you know? She's a young adult now.

Not Daddy's little girl any more.

She's definitely not the same girl she was last year.

But then nothing's the same as it was, you know?

OK, put those down.

Her doing, not mine. Oh, come on!

Just the one, it's tradition. Come on.

OK. BRAD GROANS

Here we go. To friendship.

ALL: To friendship.

Cheers. Always. Cheers.

OK.

The piece de resistance, my man. Wow.

It's the man cave of all man caves.

You can almost smell the testosterone.

Oh, come on, says the woman that stocked the bar.

Well, it's not like I can pop down to the local bottle shop.

Look where we are, the middle of bloody nowhere.

Gonna have some? No, no, no, no.

Oh, come on. No, I know. You guys go for it.

I just feel like I need an early night.

Oh. I will be more fun tomorrow, I promise.

OK? OK. Have a good sleep.

Thank you. Everyone else?

Yeah. Night.

Well, my man, looks like you're wifeless.

Eh? For old time's sake.

Er...

You know what? The traffic was a nightmare getting out of Sydney,

and I nearly smashed into Skippy, didn't I?

So it's probably best I, you know, go and get my head down.

Ah, worried I'll kick his arse, I think!

Ah, yeah!

Well, we've got all week to corrupt you.

Night. Yeah.

Manana, OK? Manana.

Postpone the inevitable if you need to.

I'll smash you to pieces. I'll believe that when I see it.

See you tomorrow. All right, big man, sleep well.

Night-night. Good night.

GUNFIRE ON TV

SCREAMING ON TV

It's just a game, Mum.

Don't stay up too late.

Night, Sarah. Night.

GUNFIRE AND YELLING ON TV

As if we don't know our way around a parental lock!

She can't just sulk in her room all week.

We said we was gonna put this behind us.

She must forget how hard this is for us, as well.

And Tom.

I HATE that we asked him to lie.

What did she say to you?

When you checked on her.

Well, she doesn't like the lies, either.

Well, they used to tell us everything.

Hm? Whenever we catch up, it's always great,

but there's usually nothing new to talk about

because we know it all already.

This year, it's like we've got no idea what's going on in their lives.

Don't you think?

I think... it's none of our business.

'the topic of climate change is once again on the national agenda.

'The Cabinet is in a stalemate over carbon emissions,

'and the Greens say it's not good enough.

'Protests will take place...' SARAH CLEARS THROAT

Oh, I meant to warn you about the alarm clock.

God, what kind of birds are they?

Black cockatoos. They have a party every morning.

Great (!)

How Brad sleeps through it, I'll never know.

Anyway, done. What do you think?

Oh, it's great! So much better than my effort from last year.

That'd be good, mate, we'll go in the morning

before the sun gets too hectic, you know?

Sweet. I'm well up for it. Morning.

Oh, here they are. Happy birthday!

Happy birthday! Wow, look at all this.

We've, erm...

We've decided we're gonna go on a little picnic today. OK.

Yeah, down the river. Kids will love it.

Well, apart from the fact they won't be able to use their phones!

The reception cuts out at the treeline, but...

Well, we've gotta give you the whole bush experience.

BIRDS TWEETING

So, you're not gonna say anything?

Oh, Mia, please! Isn't this killing you?

He's off telling us how to live our lives while he's lying to us.

We don't know anything for a fact.

We know he's not being honest!

OK, it's your father's birthday, Brad's too,

it's not the time to start making accusations. When is the time?

I don't know.

SARAH EXHALES HEAVILY Mum.

I'm not trying to make this harder for you.

I just... really hate what he's doing.

He has always been one of the good guys.

People change.

We don't want them to, but they do.

SHE SIGHS

BIRDS SQUAWKING

Hey.

What were you doing last night?

Wouldn't you like to know?

Fruit? Guys, have you had some fruit?

THEY CHATTER

No, mate, you're misremembering.

I think you're getting senile in your old age.

I was there first, he was getting my drink.

No, no. He was. Think fast, my man.

I know because he put it down,

I went into my pockets to get the cash,

then bugalugs here stole my whiskey.

I thought it was voddy.

It changes every year, dunnit?

So I very politely say to you... You was fuming.

I was not, I said, "Mate, that's my drink."

Before we know it, the bouncer's right up in our face.

The only true part of this story. Yeah, yeah.

So he's asked for ID cos we did actually look young once,

sees that we've got the same birthday,

then assumes that we've been to the same place to get our fake IDs!

And what was this guy like? He was a hulk of a man.

He was a lump, wasn't he?

We called him Bruiser. Bruiser, that's right.

Picks us both up, boots us out onto the street.

Is that about right? Give or take. Come on, it was.

Oh, man... Anyway, beautiful friendship was born, my man.

Chin-chin. Cheers, bro.

These are our role models.

Do as we say, not as we do.

Do you ever wonder, you know...

what would've happened if we'd never gone to the pub that night?

And then spent the whole night talking about the land down under?

If we hadn't have made each other buy plane tickets. Yeah.

Well... we wouldn't have met them two.

What a shame that would've been! Yeah, travesty.

You little lot, you wouldn't even be here.

True.

So, I think I can safely say it's the greatest moment of my life.

Oh, thanks, man. And I don't say this enough...

..but friendship...

family...

..I'd be nothing without youse.

Cheers to that. That's very sweet.

OK, who's up for a swim?

Love you, brother.

You too.

I'm leaving home for the coastline

Some place under the sun

I feel my heart for the first time

Cos now I'm moving on Yeah, I'm moving on...

Are you still thinking about going to art school, Mia?

Maybe it's not a real career.

Kip! KIP: That was sick!

Oh, boys. I love this, man.

Our two families together.

Hoping we've got a few more left of these in us.

They're growing up so fast,

it won't be long before they don't want anything to do with us.

I'm gonna lose 'em, Brad.

Because I've fucked up.

Badly.

I had no idea you were in debt, mate.

I wanted to start my own business.

Got a tip on some hot shares, you know, like get rich quick.

Anyway... company went bust.

How much did you lose?

Our term deposit.

I should have told Sarah then and there, but I didn't.

I found another investment.

I borrowed on the house.

Another bust?

Fuck.

How does Sarah not know?

Cos I've always done the finances.

She's never done it. It's always been me.

So my head's been all over the place,

which means I've become distant, which means she's become distant.

Fuck knows what she thinks of me at the moment.

She probably thinks I'm having a mid-life crisis.

To be fair, I am.

I meant to ask, mate, that weekend cricket trip,

what was that all about?

I went to see a loan shark up north.

Jesus Christ, man. I know.

Anyway, they want their money back, so...

I'm gonna have to sell my house.

Fuck.

All them shifts Sarah put in at the hospital,

just so we can meet the mortgage, I've pissed it all away.

I just thought if we could have this week,

just have this week, get our family back on track...

..it won't be so bad when I tell her.

But I don't know where to start, mate, honestly.

Darl!

It's getting hot, you wanna head back?

Yeah, yeah, let's do it. Yeah.

OK.

We might pack up, guys.

I don't know what to say, mate.

Let's go, mate. Yeah.

Does Mia know? No.

She's mad at me for some other reason, though.

PHONE CHIMES

You got reception back?

Fuck. What?

They wouldn't send someone looking for me, would they?

Fuck!

Hey, er... I might actually have a solution for your problem.

We'll chat, yeah?

I don't know what to say.

Say yes, mate.

I'm going back to the river, I forgot my phone.

Um, I put it down when we went for a swim.

Do you remember where it is? Give us a second, I'll show you.

No, I'm all good.

You sure? Yeah.

It's far too generous.

Mate, I can afford it. What's Louise gonna say?

She doesn't need to know.

The truth is, that last development, I made an absolute killing,

squirrelled a wee bit away, you know?

I don't know when I'll be able to pay you back.

Mate, there's no rush. I know where you live!

Seriously, I can transfer today.

That way, the wolf's away from the door,

and you don't have to tell Sarah, either.

I'm very grateful, Brad.

I really am, I just...

I just don't know if I can accept.

Mate, the offer's there. Think about it, eh?

It's all good.

BOYS CHATTER

I love you.

I love you, too.

SHE SIGHS HEAVILY

Hey. Hey.

Come here.

MUSIC: 'Before You' by Benson Boone

Why would I want to fly Be on the last red eye?

Talking to your voice Only hearing noise

Oh, it's not enough

All of the nights I spent Drowning my discontent

Wasting me away Everything has changed

Now that I found us...

SHE LAUGHS

Are you all right? I'm fine.

THEY LAUGH

Darling, if you don't mind

I'll take your hand tonight

We could just slow down time Let me adore you

And from the moment I looked in those dark brown eyes

I can't remember life before you

Why would I want to go

Now that you're all I know?

Smiling under stars Playing chasing cars

There's somethin' bout the art Of music in the dark

And it feels like home

Darling, if you don't mind I'll take your hand tonight

We could just slow down time...

What's wrong?

Can't do it.

OK, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter

OK.

I'll take your hand tonight

We could just slow down time

Oh, and from the moment I

Looked in those dark brown eyes

I can't remember life...

Ow! My knee. Ow!

Ow!

THEY LAUGH

I'm sorry.

SHE SIGHS

Maybe, erm...

Maybe we should just, er...

We'll try again tomorrow.

You didn't forget.

You know I searched every art shop in town, right?

I remembered how much you wanted them.

Hey, Mia, I can't stay for long.

I just wanted you to know I was thinking of you.

I was always on your side.

I know. Tom was, too.

If you know all that...

..why'd you disappear?

Hate him. I shouldn't have said anything.

I hate him. He made me think you didn't care about me.

He made me believe that you never wanted to see me again.

Mia, I'm sorry. No, this isn't your fault.

This is all on him. Yeah, well, he's still your dad.

He's a fucking hypocrite.

Hey, can we just enjoy each other's company?

Before I go.

No. No, no, no. You can't leave me.

You can't leave me again. We need to sort this out.

We will, I promise. Just not here.

When we're back in Sydney, OK?

Will you look at me? Look at me.

I wanna be with you.

You wanna be with me?

Of course I do, yes.

We have to be smart about this.

All right, big man?

Brad, I'll... I'll take the loan.

I know that me and Sarah can get back on track.

I know we can, so... That's good, mate, good.

If you can make the transfer without Louise finding out, then do it.

100%. Consider it done.

Love you, man.

Dad! You're a life-saver, you know that?

Dad!

Spend this time with your family.

And please, don't fight with your dad.

How can you defend him? He's been so awful to you.

It's only cos he loves you, Mia.

SHE SCOFFS Love?

Look at what he's doing to Mum.

Oh. What the fuck?!

Dad! Did you follow her here?

No, Dad, it's not like that. So you knew he was coming, yeah?

No, she didn't. No?

So you've been stalking her? Dad!

I love him, and he loves me, too!

You've caused enough damage to this family!

YOU can talk! Whoa! Take a breath, everyone.

Relax. Let's just go back to the house.

Whatever's going on here, I'm sure we can talk about it calmly, yeah?

Mum! Mum, let me tell you something. Actually, no, Dad...

Jet, what...? ..why don't you tell them?

Tell everyone what you said to Jet to make him ghost me.

Mia. OK, Steve, what's going on?

He threatened to report Jet to the police for Tom's accident.

Steve?

Really? Is that true? Mm-hm.

Threatened to get him sent to jail, which is really funny

because this all happened when you were on your cricket weekend.

You shut your mouth, Mia.

All right, boys, let's give them privacy, eh?

You made it seem like Jet attacked Tom.

Even though you were out doing God knows what.

Why won't you call him on it?

Here you are, mate. Just trying to protect her, you know what I mean?

I did like him at first.

And then I found out he was on a good behaviour bond, and...

there was this other shit with Tom.

Yeah, what was that with Tom and the injury?

I banned Jet from seeing Mia.

One night, I get a call,

the same night I was up north sorting out that loan.

Time I come home early, he nearly found 'em together,

Jet goes flying out the door, he knocks Tom sideways.

Concussion, broken wrist.

I mean, the geezer didn't even stop to check to see if he was OK.

You know this happened, or you think it happened?

Well, doors don't just fly open on their own, do they?

Teenage boys don't get knocked out for no reason.

Where's Sarah when all this is happening?

She was at work.

HE SIGHS HEAVILY

Anyway, I came home...

lot of rows, lot of aggravation.

You threatened Jet?

I just told him he was never gonna see Mia ever again.

She certainly seems to have her own idea

of what you were up to that weekend, if you noticed.

I guess I haven't been too focused on that.

He's so much older than her, Brad.

What would you do if that was your daughter?

No judgement there, mate, but...

Look, one of two things is gonna happen.

You keep opposing them,

I guarantee you drive her away.

Or you learn to compromise.

What's it gonna be?

I've told him about what Dad's doing.

Dad, I don't wanna hear it!

I was just leaving, so... No, no, no.

We've agreed that you should spend the night.

It'll be dark soon, it's not safe.

OK, well I could sleep in my car, it's parked down the road.

No, mate, there's plenty of room... One night.

On the couch.

Thanks, Brad.

I wanna be in your life Until the night is over

I wanna hold you so tight

So tight, come in closer

It's been a hell of a ride

But every single moment

You were there by my side

Whenever I'm broken

You make me feel whole

Whenever I'm lonely

You're there for my soul

Wherever you are, girl

That's where I call my home

Whenever you doubt it

I'll be letting you know

Whoa, girl, I want to be Dancing with you forever

You see through the storm

And take me as I am...

A cricket ball.

Baby, it's magic any time We are together

I make I just love you

And hold you for my hand

Hold you for my hand

My hand, my hand

Hold you for my hand... Open yours.

Hold you for my hand...

"Best farter ever"!

Feels like time is frozen And the night is for us

And we're alone again And every moment's golden, yeah

Feelings I've been holding in

It must be love

Whenever I'm broken...

Thank you.

I knew Mia would be heartbroken.

But the end justifies the means.

SARAH SIGHS

Well, say something.

What do you want me to say?

I mean, it's done now.

Are you sure there's nothing you wanna know about that weekend?

Yeah, it's just... SHE SIGHS

It's been a long day, I just wanna get some sleep.

BIRDS SQUAWKING

I wish I was coming with you.

It's time with your family.

You'll be there... when we get home?

I'll never leave you again.

OK?

Good news, pal, I just got a notification from the bank, so...

money will be in real soon. Thanks, mate.

I can't watch this.

Hey! Sorry.

Stop apologising.

CAR ENGINE STARTS

This is just so unfair on you.

Oh, please, it's fine.

It's so unfair.

Oh, God.

I can't do this. Are you OK?

No, I've got Mia blaming Steve for ruining her life,

and she thinks I'm weak because I won't confront him

about an affair she thinks he's having.

Hey, hey, come on.

And, like...

I'm worried about her and Jet, but then...

who am I to question them? Like, who are either of us?

I just...

promised myself that weekend would be the end of it.

And I thought I could come here and forget what we were planning.

But I can't.

I feel the same.

Hey...

It's just that...

Every time I see you, I want you.

It's wrong.

WHISPERS: We can't. It's wrong.

SHE SIGHS I gotta get out of here.

Yeah.

Will do. All right, thanks for the update.

All right, Morgan, thanks for this.

Just move everything from the truck over there.

I'll help you in a minute.

Hey, mate, you heading to Lawsonville?

No, Sydney. Is there a problem?

Yeah, look, we're about to close this road.

If you go in the next 20, you can make it. And after that?

Nobody's getting through.

REPORTER ON TV: 'Fires that started in Gippsland are moving east,

'with residents in several towns ordered to evacuate.

'The news has caused chaos on some sections of the highway

'with traffic at a standstill for several hours...'

What are you doing? We should leave.

Why? Jet's gone now.

Because it's not fair on Brad and Louise.

We've brought all of our problems here, we should just go.

We said we need this time as a family.

Yeah, I know, but it's not right for them or for us.

HORN BEEPING What the fuck?

All right?

You OK? Yeah, I just can't stay here a minute longer.

Why are you back here? I had no choice.

Hey. Mate, I got to the crossroads, and they turned me back.

There's barricades everywhere. What's happening?

The fire. What are you talking about?

I've just been watching the news, they're miles away.

All I know is the road to Sydney is closed.

They told us we had to stay put till there's further notice.

Nobody can leave?

Nobody can leave.

On the path of an oncoming bush fire,

and you're acting like cruise director on board the Titanic.

If they evacuate Lawsonville, we should start to worry.

Go and get the bush-fire plan.

The house is safe, the river is a natural fire break.

Fires can jump rivers, even I know that.

I can't do this any more. You've been screwing around for months!

I told you the money's coming.

There's something I need to tell you.

Am I even allowed to be angry?

'Having an affair versus losing your life savings, what's worse?'

Are you and Mum gonna split up? I don't know.
