Original subtitles

JUNG: You give them every little tidbit the moment

you get it because you're afraid they won't trust you.

It's not dishonesty, Zane, it's timing.

MALIK'S MOM: He can't even get himself a glass of milk

anymore.

But some day--

[gunshots]

--the person who did this to him will die, and have

to face what he's done.

RAY: He stole from me.

A Rolex watch.

PATRICIA: You're a mess.

RAY: And tomorrow it'll be the same.

Hope you didn't feel alone.

Look at me 'cuz you killed my son.

You killed my son!

Quick one over.

[somber music]

[musical chanting]

[sirens]

[theme music]

MAN 1: Listen, check it out, brother.

[interposing voices] MAN 2: Pull over, make way.

[whistling] MAN 1: Hey, hey.

MAN 2: Girl, love ounce.

MAN 1: OK. MAN 2: [laughs]

MAN 1: Pick one [laughs] [gunshots]

[tense music]

SONNY: Hey, we've got a drive by shooting down at Botany.

I've been called out, sorry.

Dalal's home's been raided by the anti terrorism squad.

They've taken her husband away.

They've told her nothing.

She doesn't even know where he's being held.

I told her you'd find out what's happened to him.

I can't get involved, you know that.

If she's got questions, she's got to talk

to CTCC then, all right? - Oh yeah?

What, the same men who were pointing guns in her kids'

faces at 5:00 AM this morning?

Plus, I've got to go to work, all right?

- OK. - OK?

All right, then.

I hope everything works out for you, yeah?

Thank you. Thank you.

[speaking arabic]

[speaking arabic]

The missus didn't take it too well, eh?

She's all right.

[tense music]

PATRICIA: OK. Cheers.

Bye.

Ray?

Ray, what have we got?

We've got Melana Heims, 7-A, the unintended victim.

We've got Fahim and Emad Azzi, two dirty Lebo drug dealers,

intended victims.

Oh, turn down, Crowley.

Come on.

These guys made hoops of you.

PATRICIA: Was it a rip or a hit to take them out of the play?

I don't know.

All I know is, innocent girl's been murdered.

PATRICIA: Well, somebody better inform the girl's parents.

I don't want them reading about it tomorrow in the papers.

Yeah, I'll do that.

[radio chatter]

HELEN: Malik.

Woman here says she saw the shooter's vehicle.

MALIK: Hello.

WITNESS: I heard all these bangs,

and I came racing out of my place.

That's my place up there.

And when I came out, this car just came screeching past.

It was a red Ford.

MALIK: Did you see who was in the car?

Um, I saw the driver.

And he looked a bit like that guy.

PATRICIA: Detective Malik?

Just excuse me for a second.

PATRICIA: I'm putting you in charge of this investigation.

You'll be reliving the sergeant as of now.

- Wow. - Don't talk back.

I want a result on this one, Zane.

Heard you were this one.

It's gonna be a nightmare.

Tell me about it.

I'll be carrying the break for the next two years.

HELEN: An XB Falcon was recovered

burnt out near the runway at Molineaux Point.

Any chance of getting physical evidence?

You like your steak well done?

That's how they left the car.

Forensics are going over it, but they don't hold out much hope.

What sort of weapons were used?

HELEN: Ballistics are running an IBIS check on the shell casings

now. - Witnesses?

HELEN: One witness who can provide

a description of the driver.

Got him as possibly Pacific Island extraction.

SONNY: I swear it wasn't me.

I have an alibi.

I was with him.

MALIK: So our best lead's the Azzi family.

They're on their way in to ID the bodies.

I'm gonna meet them there.

So as you're all aware, Detective Malik

will be the OIC for this case.

You will be working to him.

Anyone got a problem with that?

Good.

[telephone ringing]

I thought Malik was ready for the challenge.

Oh, it's just the libs turn to climb that greasy pole, is it?

Whose word was it? Yours or Head Office's?

Mind.

To be almost, Ray, I thought you could do with a break.

- Oh, I'm fine. - Well, you don't look fine.

You look worse than that mutt. RAY: Thanks.

PATRICIA: The dog can't stay, by the way.

RAY: It's Paul's dog.

[chuckles] He can't stay with me.

He craps everywhere.

PATRICIA: Oh, what, so you bring him in here

so he can crap in here?

There's so much crap flying around here, I didn't

think anyone would notice.

PATRICIA: I'm gonna put you down for two weeks' leave.

It'll give you a chance to get yourself cleaned up,

and that mutt toilet trained.

[tense music]

Ray, it was a oncer.

You know there can't be any repeats.

Yeah, you're always hearing wedding bells.

[knocking]

MALIK: Just need a quick chat, boss.

[snapping] Heel.

So that thing's free to a good home.

Or a bad one.

MALIK: Uh, CCTC executed a search warrant this morning.

A guy called Wadi Behee was taken away for questioning.

- Friend of yours? - No.

I have no stake in this.

His wife knows my wife through the mosque

and the kids' school.

Dalal came to her 'cuz she didn't know where else to go.

She's worried about her husband.

She's confused about what's going on.

What do you want from me?

I wanted to put in a request to Tom

from CCTC to contact her and let her know where things stand.

I'll see what I can do.

Cheers, boss.

Crowley's pretty pissed.

Uh, I appreciate the opportunity,

but did I get this gig because I'm a taken Aussie?

No, 'cuz you're the right man for the job.

That you're also a good looking Aussie's a bonus.

[clears throat]

Do we speak English?

We speak English.

Good.

Where do you think this came from?

MR. AZZI: We don't know.

All I know is that they work very hard in the gym,

and they do no harm to nobody.

Might be something to do with the fact

they dealt in so much smack.

Shut up, Ray.

SUMMAH: Typical coppers.

You're more interested in accusing my brothers

rather than finding out who killed them.

Guess you're all cheering down at the station

that they're dead.

[somber music]

MALIK: Summah. I'm sorry.

I apologize.

We didn't mean to upset you.

I've just lost both my brothers.

My mom and dad have lost both their sons,

and we're getting this-- - I know.

--bullshit about who they were--

I understand. I apologize.

--and what they did.

Well, my family are the victims here.

I understand, but it's my job to catch

the guys who did this, yeah?

And I'm gonna need your help to do that.

The killers took out a 17-year-old girl today, too.

She just finished her exams.

She was walking home from school.

So if you know anything about what your brothers were doing,

where they were going, who they were meeting,

I've gotta put together a 24 hour timeline

on what their movements were.

If you don't know, maybe you know someone who does.

I mean, I know this is hard for your parents.

I don't wanna involve them.

There's this guy, Vinnie Mahmood.

He's-- does business deals with my brothers.

- What kind of business? - Oh, I don't know.

You probably know better.

OK.

Emad was on the phone to Vinnie last night.

He was trying to calm him down, I think.

Vinnie was scared to keep doing business with my brothers.

Why?

Someone had threatened him, or--

Who?

I don't know.

Ask Vinnie.

[suspenseful music]

My son's getting christened next Saturday week.

I wanna know whether you got a godparent.

What're you asking me for?

What, did you realize more?

Who cares?

I just want a positive role model for my son.

Someone who's gonna teach him right from wrong.

I'll start by making sure he plays soccer.

[chuckles] Hey, we got action.

Yeah.

I think Crowley killed Basha.

What?

Why?

Oh, it's just something he said to me.

He thinks Basha killed his son.

It's one thing blaming him.

It's another thing taking him in.

Yeah.

See this?

That's Crowley's father's watch.

And Basha was wearing a gold watch when we interviewed him,

but there wasn't one on his body when they found him.

I think Basha was wearing Crowley's watch.

SONNY: That's some heavy shit.

But if you're wrong, it'll cause a whole leap of drama

for Crowley for nothing.

I think you should report it anyway, brother.

Let's put the bounce on Vinnie.

Yeah.

[upbeat music]

- Hey, Vinnie? - Turn the car off.

Turn the car off.

Is that a bag load of smack in your pants,

or are you just pleased to see me?

Take the keys out the ignition.

Throw them outside. - Let's have it, now.

Out of the car.

SONNY: Get out.

250 grams, Vinnie.

That's a commercial corner.

You're looking at some good time.

VINNIE: Man, you know that was gonna be my last one.

MALIK: Well before we deal with that,

what can you tell us about the murders of Emad and Fahim Azzi?

Man, I don't nothing. That was none of my business.

SONNY: You got enough to worry about.

I suggest you start helping yourself.

MALIK: I know you used to buy gear off him.

You stopped 'cuz someone stood over you.

So we're thinking maybe you had something to do with it.

No way, man.

Listen, if it came from anyone, it came from Vicarrio.

You remember George Vicarrio.

Runs a tight trap business on Botany Road.

Crowley and his drug scout mates were

trying to nail him for years.

Well, what makes you so sure it was Vicarrio buying it?

Man, he had the shits with the boys for selling on his run.

He threatened me.

He told me he was gonna knee cap me if I kept buying

my gear from the brothers.

Look, I tried to help those boys.

I warned them off.

I told him they were gonna have drama.

All right, all right.

So who would he have used for the hit?

[sighs] He uses Islanders, man.

I'd start with them.

Do you know any of these Islanders?

[scoffs] They're all dumb coconuts, man.

I can't tell one from the other.

Sorry, man.

Don't worry about it.

- Well, can I go now? - I don't know.

Is that all you got? - Mm-hm.

Take him to station.

Charge him with possession.

VINNIE: What? I thought we had a deal.

For us to have a deal, you gotta be registered

as my official informant.

Good bye.

Hostile actor.

MALIK: Now we know the Azzis were selling

their gear on Vicarrio's patch.

Vicarrio was losing business.

He warns them off.

When they don't stop, he has them killed.

Circumstantial evidence from the mouth of a dirty Lebo.

MALIK: It's all backed up by a conversation

I had with Summah Azzi.

Two dirty Lebos.

Circumstances don't lie.

I wanna know who Vicarrio's talking to

and who he's dealing with.

Pete, I need you to start by preparing

an affidavit to install LDs in Vicarrio's current work.

And Cath, I want you to prepare an affidavit

for the interception of Vicarrio's phones.

All right, guys?

That'll do for now.

Any questions, come see me.

Hey.

Allow intercepts?

You've got [inaudible] getting his fans with the information

you've got.

Well, information doesn't gather itself right?

You wanna sit there and be negative,

or you wanna help me gather information

to support the affidavit?

Or you want me to do your job for you.

Ray, I'm asking you to help as part of the team.

Is there a misunderstanding?

Well, listen, as part of the team,

let me give you a bit of advice.

Vicarrio is a big time operator.

We can't get him for drugs, but you're

gonna get him for murder?

Yeah.

That one's untouchable.

[tense music]

Vet reckons he's all rotten on the inside.

He's got worms, eh?

They'll have to put him down.

VICARRIO: All right, the car's out here.

That's Vicarrio.

[camera shutter sound]

Go straight to Bankstown, do the pickup.

Yeah, right.

Come straight back, all right?

Bloody bore.

He couldn't look after himself.

How's he gonna look after a dog?

[car door slams]

[car starts] - Hmm.

[car door slams]

We're all rotten on the inside.

[car drives away]

[phones ringing]

I'm looking for Detective Crowley.

SONNY: He's out on a job.

Can I help you?

Check his desk.

SONNY: What's it about?

Relax, detective.

We got permission.

Detectives, I'm Inspector Wright.

We can talk in my office.

[phones ringing]

So you spiked up?

No, wasn't me.

Someone else must be onto him.

You better give him the watch before it

comes back to bite you.

[tense music]

[speaking arabic]

[speaking arabic] You wanna try that again?

Oh, come here.

Yeah, that's better.

[chuckles] Kids are still awake?

Yeah, I let them stay up playing.

Don't you think they should get an early night?

So should we.

Zane, there's something.

I told Dalal she could stay for a few days.

Why?

I'm making up a bed in the lounge.

They can't sleep here.

Oh, the couch is for you?

You understand the position this puts me in?

For what?

Giving a mother and her kids a safe roof over their heads?

Whether Wadi is guilty or not, mud sticks.

So we bind to people's paranoia and do nothing?

What good is all your success if it means that you

can't help out our own?

Well, it's only for a few days.

MALIK'S MOM: Want some tea?

No, thanks.

I won't ask about why Amina lets

her husband sleep on the couch.

I don't like it, but I won't make a fuss about it.

How's baba?

This morning, he wanted to go to the city in his pajamas.

Tonight he wears his suit to bed.

[somber music]

[equipment beeping]

MALIK'S MOM: You are the man of the house, now.

No, mama.

Papa's gonna get better.

The doctor said he'll get better.

MALIK'S MOM: You listen to me.

All my hopes, all my dreams are with you now.

He's gonna get better.

MALIK'S MOM: He will not get better.

MALIK: This is my fault. I should've

given the man the money.

No, no, no.

It was not your fault. It is the fault

of the animal who did this.

He must be made to suffer in this world, and the next.

[tense music]

SONNY: Forensics managed to get prints off the Falcon

after all.

Yeah?

We get a match?

20-year-old Pacific Islander.

95 kilos, 185 centimeters.

Holds a security license.

Currently unemployed.

Recent assaults apparently as a result of standover tactics.

I know this kid.

Used to play footy.

I saw him play a few times.

MALIK: Address?

No, but I know where he goes to church.

MALIK: All units stand by.

Myself and Koa are about to enter the church.

I'll give you a call if there's any dramas.

[soft music playing]

Hey.

KILU'S MOM: I pledge $500 to see Artoo and Malakai dance.

[cheering]

Thank you, Sister Fanoah, for your most

wonderful contributions.

Raising money from the casinos.

Eh?

The priest is a regular at the blackjack tables.

[cheering]

Gentlemen, how can I help you?

My name's Detective Malik.

This is Detective Koa. - I know Sonny.

Haven't seen you at mass for a long time now, son.

MALIK: I'd like to speak to one of your congregation members,

if you don't mind. - Only too happy to cooperate.

SONNY: We don't need your cooperation, Father.

Collecting money for charity. I don't suppose you--

Oh, I gave it to the office.

Hey, uso.

Kilu, isn't it?

Sonny Koa.

Used to watch you play rugby.

You play footy, Sonny?

Yeah, awhile back, brother.

Before I became a cop.

Look, it's about the Botany shooting.

There's cops everywhere, bro.

Let's do this the easy way, huh?

Save your mom and everyone a bit of grief.

Let me talk to mum.

All right.

[cheering]

We don't need the cuffs.

We're investigating the murders of Emad and Fahim Azzi,

as well as that of a school girl by the name of Melana Heims.

Man, I don't know anything.

Well, before we begin, I wanna tell you that your fingerprints

were located in a vehicle that's believed

to be involved in the shooting.

We also have a witness who described

you as driving that vehicle.

What can you tell us about the car?

MALIK: You're a good church-going boy, aren't you?

I reckon it's about time you helped us with this one.

[tense music]

I'll leave you with it, then.

Oh yeah, the tide-cutters were asking after me yesterday.

Yeah.

There's an investigation into the death of Gamal Basha.

You're the number one suspect.

What've they got?

I don't know.

You tell me.

Well, they'd wanna have a good brief.

[tense music]

Why don't you and Kilu go get something to eat?

Fill us on burgers and chips?

Come on.

One day, my mate, he bet me to eat the whole menu once.

I had the family size, middle size, baby size.

Man, I had every size.

[chuckles] Lucky it was the off season.

My coach woulda killed me otherwise.

Must've been affected.

[laughs] I watched you play in the Grand Final once.

You had a big game.

I remember thinking to myself, keep an eye on this kid.

He's gonna be a Wallaby one day.

[chuckles] Yeah, right.

In my dreams, eh?

What happened to those dreams?

You know, needed money.

Is that how you met Vicarrio?

He's the guy we want.

Him and the shooter.

So? Those are my mates.

Vicarrio wasn't your mate.

He used you.

He was good to me.

Paid me good money, and he didn't have to.

He paid big because he knew one day you'd

take the murder rap for him.

If you ask me, you went cheap.

You know?

I swear to god, I thought I was just knocking off a car.

I didn't know anyone was gonna get killed.

Oh, I stole the XB Falcon from a garage in Maryborough.

I dropped it off at the boss.

MALIK: Who are we talking about?

George Vicarrio.

When I got there, Loki jumped in the car.

I noticed he had a gun.

I--I was scared, man.

Yeah.

Right then and there, I wanted out.

But Vicarrio was there with him.

He said to go pay a visit to the Azzi brothers.

What were his exact words?

KILU: To get those Azzi pricks.

And what do you think that meant?

Uh, to kill them.

All right.

KILU: We tracked down the Azzis down in Botany.

Loki told me to pull up alongside so he

could get a good shot.

[sniffles]

[somber music]

[sniffles] I freaked out when I saw the girl, man.

[tense music]

I told Loki to back off, but he shot anyways.

[sniffles] I tried to drive off, but she got hit.

Where's Loki now?

[sniffles] Holed up in his dump in Pagewood.

MALIK: Address?

KILU: Hillsdale Road 824.

MALIK: Interview terminated at 3:45.

I'll catch up with you.

[door opens]

[door shuts]

I'm not a big church man.

Me and the big guy have got a-- more of a one-on-one thing

happening.

Would you like to pray with me now?

[somber music]

Thy Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.

[guns clicking]

That could've been me in that interview room.

Ah, Kilu had choices.

What choices?

When you're a Pacific Islander with little up here,

you always ending up as someone's muscle.

Only question left is whether it's gonna be legal or illegal.

And the illegal always pays much better.

Well, since you're our local muscle.

All right, guys, listen up.

This will be a hard entry.

We're not gonna let Loki know who we are till we have him

face down on the ground, yeah?

Let's go.

[tense music]

[sirens]

Police! Don't move!

Don't move!

SONNY: Police!

MALIK: Don't move, police!

SONNY: Throw down!

Where's Loki?

Where's Loki?

(SCREAMING) Tell me where Loki is!

Where is he? - (CRYING) He's dead!

Loki's dead!

He's dead.

HELEN: Malik.

MALIK: According to his girlfriend,

Loki pissed off to New Zealand after the hit on the Azzis.

Hit the first pub, got drunk, and wrecked

his hire car into a tree.

So Loki's a lackard round here.

PATRICIA: How come we didn't know till now

that this guy skipped town?

MALIK: It's my fault. HELEN: Now, it's my job.

Sorry, boss. Should've run a backs check.

OK.

So we've got the gun, the shooter,

and the driver accounted for, but not

the big guy giving the orders.

We have Kilu's testimony.

MALIK: Uncorroborated evidence of the accused

is not enough to secure a conviction.

PATRICIA: Yeah.

Not to mention his criminal history, his age.

So, how do you wanna handle this?

Wire up Kilu.

Send him back in with Vicarrio.

Vicarrio won't talk.

He's too paranoid.

PATRICIA: Will the Fanoah agree to wear a wire?

He'll do it for Sonny.

Wire him up, then.

[phone ringing]

DETECTIVE BYRD: Detective Sergeant Crowley?

I'm Detective Tristan Byrd.

This is my partner, senior Constable Scott.

We'd like to ask you a few questions in private.

Bring your Judy book.

[tense music]

SONNY: You haven't talked to him yet?

- No. - Why you holding off?

You don't have something out for Crowley.

I told you I'm not 100% sure.

Sure of the evidence, or sure of yourself?

[tense music]

Can you tell me where you were at in the afternoon

of the 16th?

Jeez, you blokes must have a lot of spare time.

Well, we have the time to run around investigating

our connection with the death of the drug dealer.

"General patrol of areas of interest."

That's a pretty vague entry, Detective.

Well, I was chasing up any leads

I could on the Adam King murder.

Did you talk to anyone while on your general patrol?

No.

Anyone see you?

I wouldn't know.

So you talked to no one, and no one saw you.

Almost like you weren't there.

We talked to your partner, Detective Constable Callas.

According to her, you called in sick that day.

RAY: Hmm.

DETECTIVE BYRD: So why the entry in your Judy book?

Were you at work, or were you off sick?

RAY: Both.

I went home sick.

I felt better.

I came into work.

You see, the night Basha went under that train,

I was with the squad.

Now, I know this might be a bit of a novelty to you,

but we actually went and arrested two men for murder

that night.

Hard to believe, I know, for you blokes.

Some of us that chase criminals, we put them away.

Fancy that.

Here.

This is for you.

Use it as your own phone.

I'll talk to you when I need to.

And when I do, I'll speak to you as a mate,

so try not to freak out.

Just answer my questions, yes or no.

I won't say anything that'll make it difficult for you.

So, who pays the phone bills, then?

SONNY: We do.

It's all paid up.

So I might get my cousin, Izung, to call, eh?

HELEN: [chuckles] Do a count back for the technician,

will you, Kilu?

Ten, nine, eight.

Yep, everything's working fine.

Thanks, Quid.

If George finds out I've been talking with yous,

he'll kill me.

It's cool, sole.

We'll be nearby.

You'll be safe.

Just remember, this is not just to avoid a big stint in jail.

It's a chance to redeem yourself.

Hold your head up in court, make your mum proud.

If you reckon it's all right.

You'll be all right.

[pats]

MALIK: Anything on the ballistics report?

JUNG: Casings haven't matched any other crimes in Sydney

so far. - Keep looking.

SUMMAH: I cooperate with you, and this is how you repay me?

What's this?

[sighs] That's my brothers they're talking about.

All sorts of stuff in there about them

being gangster drug dealers.

My family can't cope with this right now.

All right, all right.

Listen, I know nothing about this.

Someone from your office gave them this stuff.

You blokes trying to take the pressure off yourselves

by dumping it on my brothers? - No.

Look, we're making progress.

I'm as disappointed as you about this.

If they weren't Lebanese, someone

would be arrested by now.

Listen, I understand how you feel, OK?

Now trust me, I'm doing my best.

I can't tell you everything we're doing,

but we are making progress, all right?

Just ignore this, and I'll take care of it.

[somber music]

Yeah, she's not a bad sort, is she, Mrs. Azzi, for telling?

Did you leak information to the press about the Azzis?

Don't know what you're talking about.

MALIK: Congratulations, Ray.

You could've just cost me the cooperation

of a crucial witness.

And a nice piece of Lebo nookie, by the way.

Oh, you're a dinosaur, mate.

You're a racist dinosaur. You're time's over.

Did you report me to IA?

I wish I had.

I expect she's fresher than your missus.

You gonna give her one?

Go on.

Come on.

[dramatic music]

- Put me down. - [grunts]

- Put me down, though. - Settle down.

Hey!

Settle down.

Settle down, mate. Settle down.

Settle down.

[ship horn]

Kilu.

Hey, boss.

What're you doing here?

Thought you were going away on holiday.

I fly broke here. Spent all the money you gave me.

What'd you spend it on?

KILU: Hookers.

VICARRIO: All right.

Wash down the trucks, gas them up.

Make sure they're ready to go.

KILU: Yes, sir.

VICARRIO: Hey, look what the cat dragged in.

VINNIE: Georgie, my man.

Hey, you're looking good.

Look, I just wanna say upfront, I have

always had respect for you. - What do you want?

Always.

Oh, look who's here to pick up.

He's got a very expensive defense trial coming along.

And we took his hammer.

VINNIE: I need some gee, man.

Oh, I thought you were shopping

somewhere else these days. - What the Azzis?

Man, those crazy mothers messed everything up.

Look, I just want things to go back

to the way they were, you know?

We had a good thing going.

Come on, Georgie, I can help you.

Anything you need, anytime, man.

You just say it.

Well, you'd better come inside, then.

[radio static]

We're losing the signal.

SONNY: Ah, shit.

What're you doing? What're you doing?

Giving Kilu a call. Didn't you see the gun?

Just wait. Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Relax.

SONNY: If the boy wasn't visible,

I wouldn't make the call. MALIK: Relax, mate.

The deal's between Vinnie and Vicarrio.

Our boy's safe.

Don't worry. [gunshots]

Shit. [screaming]

Don't trust him, Zane.

- Hold for a second. - Let me out!

Relax! He's gonna think-- think.

Listen.

Just listen.

VICARRIO: Come on, shut up, or I'll do the--

VINNIE: Fuck, my foot!

VICARRIO: Take his coat.

Get him out of heres.

Remember this, all business is done through me.

Remember that, or next time you cop it in the head, all right?

[coughs]

VICARRIO: Get in the car.

Get in the car before you--

[shuffling]

[car door opens]

VINNIE: [grunts] [car door shuts]

Ugh!

[car door shuts]

[car starts] - Guys, take the car.

We're on our way from the home box and jamming.

HELEN: Come on, let's go.

[sirens]

[radio chatter]

[tense music]

Oh! Ugh.

Ah!

[tires squealing]

Shit!

Malik, we got a problem.

Yeah, we've got Vinnie.

Our boy's done a runner.

He bloody took off before I had a chance to stop him.

Shit!

[groaning]

- Just get in the car. - Ugh!

What're we doing?

The hospital.

VINNIE: Ugh.

Hold on, guys.

MALIK: Kilu's taken off.

Where would he go?

- I don't know. - Hello?

AMINA (ON PHONE): Zane, it's me. Is this a bad time?

No, habibi. What?

I got a call from Dalal.

Her husband's just been released without charge.

MALIK (ON PHONE): Yeah, well, that's good news, isn't it?

Well, [speaking arabic]. But he can't get home.

He's stuck outside the station mosque

anyway with no money, no car.

No, CCTC would have made arrangements for it.

Don't worry about it.

AMINA (ON PHONE): No, they just dumped him out in the street.

Dalal can't drive.

I would go pick him up, but the kids have crashed out,

and your mother's not here.

All right, all right, all right.

Look, uh, tell Dalal I'll pick Wadi up, OK?

All right.

[speaking arabic] All right, bye.

- We going, then? - Not yet.

I've gotta deal with this.

SONNY: They shot Vinnie in the foot.

We don't have time. - I know.

I know.

Look, just try and find out where Kilu went, OK?

I've gotta go.

I'm gonna need the car.

[somber music]

Wadi!

[speaking arabic] You all right?

Wouldn't even let me get dressed.

Come on, get in.

Let's get you home.

[speaking arabic] Thank you.

You and your wife have been very kind.

[speaking arabic]

[speaking arabic]

[speaking arabic]

Happy, Detective?

I'm looking for Kilu Fanoah.

You know where I can find him?

Sorry, I can't help you.

Well, if he pops in, can you give me a call?

It's important.

Kilu was a good kid.

Shame you got him in the wrong crowd.

You did all you could to put him in the righteous path,

didn't you, Father?

PRIEST: I did all I could.

In the end, we all choose our own path.

Kilu, like so many his age, found

it hard to resist temptation.

[scoffs] Oh, we all know about temptation.

What's the unemployment rate of your parishioners?

I bet it would be quite high.

How do you think the community are

able to afford to put down so much in your coffers each

Sunday?

It's certainly not unemployment benefits.

They're peeling off $50, $100 bills.

Where do you think that kind of money comes from?

It's dirty money.

The sons rob, and the mothers get to hold

their head high in church.

You know it, and I know it, and nobody says nothing.

Now what I'm saying, it's gotta stop.

If you're not part of the solution,

you're part of the problem.

And you can start by telling me where Kilu is.

Where is he?

You can try the Metro Alarms.

Thank you.

[tense music]

What's going on, boys?

I'm waiting for my cuz.

He said to meet him here.

Who's your fucking cousin?

Kilu Fanoah.

Big kid.

Played a lot of footy.

PAUL: I've seen you before, bro.

You look like that brother who became a pig.

SONNY: [scoffs] Fuck off.

It's not me, boy.

Hey, come on fellas.

Steady on.

I think you got me mixed up with some other good Polynesian boy.

KILU: Hey. Leave him.

He's cool.

Paul says he's a cop?

Paul's drank too much piss.

Now leave him alone.

He's mom's cuz.

Sorry, bro. No hard feelings.

Nah.

No, you're all right, brother.

KILU: I saved your ass back there.

Now it's time for you to save mine.

Forget you saw me.

I can't do that.

I've got a job to do.

[sighs] They'd kick your head in if they

knew you were a detective.

Now listen, I have a family in Samoa.

I'm gonna hold up there until it's safe.

You'd never get past immigration.

Look, there's only one way through this mess, uso.

If I come back with you, you're

not gonna make me wear a wire.

You can't make me.

So why didn't you arrest Vicarrio?

Vinnie's a live witness.

Vinnie's a scared crook.

He's refused to give us a statement.

Shooting Vinnie in the foot gets Vicarrio maybe a few years.

It's not gonna make the victims of the drive

by feel any better. - OK, so what do you wanna do?

MALIK: I wanna gather more evidence for the murders.

I wanna send our informant back in with Vicarrio.

Kilu's lost his nerve.

The shooting freaked him right out.

He's scared he's next.

Hey, he's safe.

Vicarrio trusts him.

He's shown that trust by shooting

Vinnie in front of him.

We've gotta prepare our kid to go back in.

Ray, what do you think?

What do I think?

I'm not even on the case.

I don't even know what I'm doing here.

Boss.

You think you could persuade Kilu to go back?

MALIK: Yeah. We'll get the kid to agree.

PATRICIA: OK.

Anyway, we have a brief in the bank on Vicarrio.

All right, I want things put in place,

ready to arrest him if it looks like he'll hurt anyone.

Yeah, you got it.

Zane, you got a minute?

Great.

There's been a report that you were seen in close contact

with a CCTC terrorist suspect.

I need to know right now whether you

have a conflict of interest.

Wadi, he was stuck for a lift. What was I supposed to do?

Leave him there in the street? - You bet.

CCTC shoulda done the right thing

and determined whether or not he had the means to get home.

That's what we do in this situation

with crimson informants.

Don't just turf them out in the street in their pajamas.

So there's no conflict of interest?

Absolutely not.

Good.

[phones ringing]

That's bullshit, Zane.

You have Kilu's confession.

We also have wire evidence that Kilu worked for Vicarrio.

We also know that Vicarrio paid Kilu a sum

of money post the shooting.

We've got audio evidence that Vicarrio

shot Vinnie, man, in the foot.

We arrest Vicarrio, yeah.

But with what we've got, the consequences for Kilu

are the same.

Vicarrio's gonna know he was set up.

He's gonna know Kilu was wearing that wire.

I know you got close to this kid, but come on.

We've got a dead 17-year-old girl out there.

And Kilu knew what he was doing when he got in that car.

Melana Heims had no idea what was

gonna happen to her while she was walking home from school.

I want him for the murders.

Well, that's good to hear, because for a minute there,

I thought this was all about egos.

Get him to wear the wire, all right?

Explain to him.

Tell him he could get benefit and assistance

from court to help us catch Vicarrio for the triple murder.

That won't protect him from getting a bullet in the head.

Explain it to him, all right? Let him decide.

It's a second chance for the kid.

He'll do what I tell him, and you know that.

MALIK: Well, every man's responsible

for his own actions.

Maybe Kilu is responsible, but I'm responsible for him now.

[tense music]

Regardless whether you continue to help us on this,

the minute he finds out we've got why evidence against him,

he's gonna know it's you.

Ah, shit.

If you cooperate with us on this,

and we get enough to nail Vicarrio on triple murder,

it's gonna look good in court.

I'll still go to jail.

SONNY: I can't promise you anything,

but I can't see you doing any jail time.

It's a chance to start over, do what you wanna do.

Maybe go back to school.

Go back to playing rugby, too. You're young enough.

You could make Super 14 if you put your mind to it.

But you've gotta trust me on this.

[tense music]

MALIK: Gotta keep all the surveillance

sheets coming in, all right? JUNG: Yeah.

MALIK: I want all the paperwork up to date.

- Mm-hm. - Malik, you got a sec?

Yeah. what is it?

I'm up for the arbol, but I'm having

trouble locating Crowley.

Oh, where the hell is he?

Well, he's not answering his phone.

He's not at home. - Mm-hm.

Take someone else there with you, then.

Take Ymette with you.

There's room in the car.

I'd prefer to wait for Crowley.

No, Callas.

I don't have time for this.

Also, he's not in charge of this investigation.

I am, and I need you.

Probably ate out and just decided to give us a miss.

Gosh, you underestimate him.

Do I?

He's better than what you think.

You know, it's not all about you, Malik.

Crowley can take direction, even from you.

- Right. - [scoffs] Give the man a break.

His life has just collapsed.

Why do you have a soft spot for him?

Because he's a bloody good detective.

He's given everything to the job.

And he took the time to talk to me

when no one else gave a shit.

So right now, I am concerned about him.

Oh, well, go out and look for him, then.

Or get on with the job.

We've got work to do, and it's not gonna wait for Crowley.

[tense music]

Well, one of us has gotta go.

[knocking]

Excuse me.

Hang on.

Hang on.

Is that your dog?

Eh?

Oh, it's just done its business over there, OK?

The council rangers will fine you if you

don't take responsibility.

[dog barking]

Come on, Cody.

[laughs] Did you do that?

[laughs] Did you do that?

Well, it's a step up from the bedroom, I suppose.

[laughs]

[laughs]

[dog barking]

[cars honking]

VICARRIO: Hey, Kilu.

Hey, what do you know about this nag, Bingham's Way?

It's listed 100 to 1.

You know I don't play the phones, boss.

VICARRIO: What's up with you?

KILU: The coppers come round my place the other night, eh?

VICARRIO: Coppers came round?

Well, why didn't you say something before?

KILU: I wasn't there.

They talked to mom, and then they told her I was supposed

to go to the station with them.

VICARRIO: Right, so you didn't talk to the cops?

No.

I was up with you when you shot Vinnie in the foot.

Shut up.

Hey, you asked me where I was.

That's where I was.

- Stand up. - What the hell, boss?

Just do what I tell you.

Come on, get up.

Oh, shit. He's onto him, man.

He's gonna find the wire.

The wire's in Kilu's jacket.

Sit down.

So what do I do about the cops?

Man, just one word of advice, all right?

Say nothing.

Not a word.

KILU: I don't have an alibi.

VICARRIO: What did I just say?

Well, what about the gun?

What if the coppers find it?

I told Loki to get rid of the gun.

KILU: Loki gave the gun to me.

It's at mom's.

VICARRIO: Ugh, dumb coconuts.

Dumb coconuts.

[dramatic music]

Hey, that's Summah Azzi.

Shit, she's tooled up.

All units move in.

[gunshots]

[screaming] SONNY: Police!

Drop the gun! MALIK: Put it down!

Put it down! SONNY: Drop the weapon.

Drop the weapon! MALIK: Get on the ground now!

Get on the ground. - Help is on the way.

Hang in, brother. Hang in!

MALIK: I got him. - Kilu!

MALIK: Get down. - Hang in there.

It's OK. Kilu, it's all right.

MALIK: You're under arrest for the murders of Emad and Fahim

Azzi, and Melana Heims.

All right, we're getting up.

Ready?

Take him down to the station.

Take her to police center and charge

her with attempted murder.

[tense music]

Make that murder.

[somber music]

[door shuts]

You're home early.

Oh, I didn't stay for the party.

One day, Sonny will be able to accept that boy died

at the time he was meant to.

You weren't to know the woman would turn up with a gun.

Sonny not wanting you to be godfather

doesn't mean he holds it against you.

[doorbell rings]

I hope I'm not barging in on anything.

I'm Ray.

Ray Crowley.

Amina.

They're beautiful.

Would you like to come in for a coffee?

No.

No, I'll be all right, thanks.

I just want a word with your husband.

She's a cracker, mate.

She's a beautiful woman.

What are you doing here, Ray?

Someone's tipped me into the tide-cutters.

I need to know who. - You're in trouble with IA.

It's got nothing to do with me.

Someone's spreading rumors.

Well, you made no bones about the fact

you'd like to see Basha dead.

What you can do is go to the IA

and tell them what I said when I found out about Paul.

You can do that.

Because that prick Byrd's gunning for me.

And he will make a mountain out of a very little mole hill

if he finds out about it.

You asking me, or you warning me off?

Do you seriously think I would risk everything on someone

as low rent as Gamal Basha?

Yeah, I do.

[tense music]

I'll leave you with it, then.
