Your brother's mixed up with some bad people

Xiang Xun Developments.

Principal's name is Emile Wong.

He was always a problem kid.

Bastard of a teenager.

Oh, and you don't think you had anything to do with that?

I treated Craig exactly the same way I treated you,

and you turned out all right, didn't you?

No going outside.

No contact with the outside world whatsoever.

Oh, this is gonna be a blast.

John Barlow was NSO?

Look, don't act so bloody surprised.

He was running a people smuggling operation.

He was bringing in illegal immigrants via boat

from Indonesia.

Skeritt thinks my husband was corrupt.

Sophia.

If he was selling ID, I haven't seen a cent of it.

I've gone through all his bank records.

I mean, where's the money?

I know who stole the Claymore.

I want a deal. - No, no.

No deals.

All right, you come here tomorrow.

We'll talk business then.

[theme music]

And death would have been in minutes.

Potassium cyanide ingested with his evening meal

mixes with the stomach acid to produce hydrocyanic acid.

How much poison would you need to kill him?

If it was potassium cyanide, a teaspoon.

No more.

Man, I never did it, OK?

I swear, OK?

I've helped you guys, and you're supposed to protect me.

And then you accuse me of murder.

Because you're in the same pod.

Man, you know how many people wanted

to take Akmal out in jail?

But you're the only one with the access to do it,

the only one with the access to poison him.

Mr. Skeritt, I've heard the chat before.

What are you treating me like this for?

Oscar, if you didn't poison Akmal,

the chances are you know who did, or you could find out.

You know I'll look after you, yeah?

So, Skeritt, we're friends, yeah?

You ever heard the name, Arif Mukhtar?

Who?

Did Akmal ever mention the name, Arif Mukhtar?

No, never.

Never heard him?

Angleton wasn't Akmal's only victim.

He had other enemies.

Obviously, one of them got ingenious.

What if Akmal didn't kill Angleton?

You're gonna explain that one?

Akmal already told me.

Arif Mukhtar had purchased those Claymores.

He had valuable information on the guy.

Why do you think Arif Mukhtar killed Akmal?

I think Akmal was poisoned because

of what he was gonna tell me. - Yeah.

What's the basis of this?

He goes, it was a hunch.

You got something more, like evidence?

He also said someone had stolen one of those Claymores.

He paid for seven. Ended up with six.

- Now, who stole it? - I don't know.

He was going to tell me. - Come on, Malik.

Akmal was chasing a deal, and he was playing you

like a big, bloody dumb fish.

Akmal was selling arms.

He killed, and now he's dead, all right?

It's not my idea of justice, but we

have to accept, however inconclusive, that the Angleton

case is closed.

And Akmal's murder is not ours to worry about.

Wright speaking.

Yeah, what do you got?

I told you from the beginning what this guy was like.

He's clever. He's shrewd.

You got too close.

He got under your skin, and he warped your whole way

of approaching this brief.

And now he's dead.

What, were you trying to prove he's innocent?

I don't have to prove he's guilty.

I'm just after the truth.

Hurry up, Khadija.

You'll be late for school. - Coming.

Coming.

Come on.

[doorbell rings] - I'll get it.

I'll get it. - No.

You don't. Here.

Put them in your water bottle quickly.

[crossbow bolt shot]

[woman cries in pain and drops]

Mummy.

Mummy.

[dramatic music]

Mummy.

What do you got?

Victim was 32-year-old Emma Miller

married to Zacchariah Noor.

She answered the doorbell.

Got a crossbow through the chest.

Yeah, well, they always love to keep us guessing.

Looks like the killer shot at close range,

maybe a couple of meters max.

So he's walked up, knocked, shot

her through the screen door.

Fingerprints? - Yeah, plenty.

But whether they're the killer's or not's another matter.

- Who found her? - Seven-year-old daughter.

That's her there, Khadija, with her father, Zacchariah.

Says she called the father.

Didn't see anyone, but of course,

she may still be traumatized or protecting someone.

Callas and Kane over there during the canvas, but so far,

nothing yet.

A crossbow is a silent weapon but not invisible.

Someone must have seen something.

Let's talk to the father.

Yeah.

Zacchariah Noor, I'm Detective Malik.

This is Detective Wright.

Hello.

Hello, Khadija.

Zach, Zach, I'm sorry, man.

We need to-- - Khadija, come--

- --check a few things. - with me.

- Is that all right? - It's OK.

You can go with the policewoman. - It's all right, sweetheart.

You hold my hand.

So what happened here, mate?

I was at the garage.

Khadija rang.

She was crying.

She said, her mother had fallen.

I drove straight back home, and I saw Emma lying there.

She is-- I rang the police.

Can you think of anyone who'd wanna hurt your wife?

No threats?

Not that I know of.

And things between you and Emma, how were they?

I mean, she would have told you if she was frightened or upset.

I don't know.

Maybe not.

We split up on the weekend.

OK.

How'd he get the booze?

He nicked off to the pub when I was making lunch.

Bloody hell, dad.

Anyone could have seen him.

Well I haven't got eyes in the back of my head, you know.

And I don't know why you've still got this old cage.

Could've planted a tree or built a shed or something.

[inaudible]

God, dad.

You've just stagnated.

I don't know why you even built the thing.

- I built it for your mother. - Mum hated the bird.

No, she didn't.

No, she hated them caged up, so on the day

she died, she let them go.

Well, she made a mistake.

Craig.

Couldn't survive in the wild.

Craig.

What happened to all the birds?

You know what happened to the birds.

I just thought you might have got some more finches or so.

I didn't get any more after your--

just open the door, will ya?

What's with the spade, Pats? trying to bury me,

or something?

No, I was just trying to get you out, Craig.

I mean, you could have just knocked.

I'd let you in.

Get inside.

- How was your day? - Fine.

- Yeah? - Come on.

Put any crooks away?

Did you catch any bad guys?

Change of identity, passport, driver's license.

It's all pretty straightforward.

How'd you go with your friend in Wellington?

Good.

What friend in Wellington?

Ex-cop out of [inaudible].

Drink that.

You're sending me to New Zealand?

Well, just while we sort this out, yes.

What about Alleny?

What about Alleny?

Well, I want to say goodbye.

It's good manners, isn't it?

It's what you and mum have taught me, mind your Ps and Qs.

Hey, thanks for the ride.

Yeah, that's probably best that you don't contact anyone,

so I'll call Alleny.

I'll say your goodbyes for you.

Oh, you got it all sorted out, haven't you?

What's my name gonna be?

Do I get to choose it?

Smith.

Oh, fantastic.

Not one person in this family has the same name.

It's like we're not even related.

What's my first name, Reuben?

You know, I'm quite fond of Salvador.

How about Eugene? Archibald?

You know, what about Obama?

You should just shut up.

There's blokes out there that wanna kill you.

Do you understand?

They want to kill you.

- It's Peter. - Peter?

Good choice. The rock, eh?

Peter Smith.

It was the first name that popped into my head.

It's not very-- - No, no.

It's good. I like it.

It fits.

It's the new me.

Hey, dad.

Put the gun down, Craig.

Craig.

It's not loaded.

It's loaded, Craig.

Jesus. - Oh, chill out.

Fine.

I got to get back to work, all right?

You work too hard, you know?

You got to find a balance in life.

You know life?

Work, work, life.

And you'd know.

So when was the last time you saw your wife, Emma?

Saturday morning.

I took some things to the garage.

Blankets, pillows.

There's a room there where I can sleep.

Why'd you leave?

We were having problems.

What sort of problems?

Money.

What we did on the weekends.

The kind of school Khadija should attend.

It wasn't just one thing.

And you talked about custody over Khadija?

We both wanted Khadija to be happy.

We said we'd work out the details.

We were happy for nine years, but then, Emma

found married life too hard.

She wanted the honeymoon back.

She wanted to be admired.

Do you think she was involved with someone else?

She said, not.

I wasn't sure.

Where's Khadija?

She's with the police psychologist.

Mr. Noor, did you ever use a crossbow,

or ever own a crossbow?

You think I killed my wife?

Did you?

No.

I want to see my daughter.

She shouldn't by herself.

That will depend on docs.

The psychologist is talking through everything right now.

How is that meant to help?

She saw her own mother killed in front of her.

Her life has changed forever.

Right now, my daughter needs me.

I want to see her.

[phone ringing]

This is a bad time.

A man rang for John.

He didn't leave his name, but he said, they were meant to meet,

and he had a package for him.

Is that right?

What'd he say?

Well, no, when I told him John was killed, he just hung up.

I saved his number though.

Well, text me the number.

I'll check it out.

Zane, I know this is important.

I'll get away soon as I can, yeah?

Docs are happy for Khadija to stay with her father.

He has apparently no history of violence.

It doesn't mean that he didn't kill his wife,

and she's not in danger.

What have we got on him?

Noor migrated here 12 years ago.

He met and married Emma.

Nothing in record except the call

made two months ago for domestic dispute.

We're still talking to neighbors.

Some had already left for work, so.

What have we got on the crossbow?

We have asked for a list of the registered owners,

so we're just--

Could've been bought interstate.

Or off the net.

The actual bolt itself, though,

is as clean as a whistle.

No fingerprints.

No serial number.

Forensics are looking into DNA residue, fibers,

but they'll get that--

The search on the house and garage have given us nothing.

They have given us few assumptions.

- That's pretty tough. - Thanks.

Seeing your mother die in front of you.

How does a kid get over that?

You don't.

Did Zacchariah Noor kill my daughter?

Why do you think he wanted to hurt Emma?

It was a mistake.

It was such a mistake.

Why would you say that?

What do you mean?

They were just too different.

My daughter was lovely.

She was fun loving, good hearted.

Oh god.

Take your time.

Emma liked to go out.

So we go to the club, have a few drinks, have a bit of a flirt.

All harmless stuff.

But he didn't understand.

He wouldn't let her be happy.

And now she's dead.

My baby is dead, and her baby is living with a killer.

- Now, we don't know exactly-- - I want--

- --who her killer is. - --Khadija, OK?

Were you aware of the custody battle that was

looming between Emma and Zach?

It was never going to have a happy end.

I mean, Zach worked too hard, and he expected Khadija

to adopt this whole religion.

I mean, Emma hated the idea of her growing up in such

a restricted environment.

Not that she'd ever talk about it.

I mean, she would never look at me and say, mum,

you were right.

God.

So can I apply for custody?

Khadija needs me.

That's gonna depend on the outcome--

- I'm all she's-- - --of the investigation.

--got right now.

You mentioned before that she flirted with other guys

at the club.

I told you, the club was innocent fun.

A couple of drinks, a couple of rounds on the pokies.

Mrs. Miller, I understand you want to protect your daughter,

but if we find out that you're falsifying information

about her, that will affect your chances of winning

custody over Khadija.

You have to think about how you answer that question.

There was someone.

I told her she was making another huge mistake.

He was married, but she said it was love.

OK.

It'd be really important for us to meet that person.

If you know anything about him.

He's from Khadija's school.

He got very intense.

I mean, he kept calling, texting.

OK. Do you remember his name?

If Zach found out--

I mean, I was afraid for him.

Janet, we need a name.

Gavin Blanch.

STUDENT: That's him over there.

No worries.

Gavin Blanch, I'm Detective Malik.

This is Detective Koa. Do you--

How are ya?

--mind answering a few questions for us?

If this is about Janie, I haven't been anywhere near her.

Ask them.

I can't say boo to women without them passing judgment?

What can you tell us about Emma Noor?

Is she making a complain now too, is she?

What happened to the days when you

could just admire a nice piece of ass

without being slapped with an--

Emma's dead, mate.

She was killed earlier this morning.

How well did you know her?

We had coffee a few times.

Just coffee?

Look, do I need a lawyer, or what?

You tell me.

Once. We did it once, all right?

OK, mate. Just once.

Be honest.

Her marriage was dead.

We talked.

She cried, and we just ended up getting--

In bed?

It was in the car.

She regretted every minute of it.

You wanted more?

I-- no, I'm just--

I'm a happily married husband.

Does my wife have to know about this?

This is a murder. Everything's going to come out.

Where were you this morning at 8:00 AM?

Here. Dropping my son off.

He's got early band practice.

When was the last time you saw Emma?

Friday afternoon.

Here.

She was picking up her daughter.

OK.

So why are you talking to me about this?

I never killed her.

We're talking to everyone that can

help us find Ms. Noor's killer.

Talk to her husband.

Emma said she overheard him talking to his mother

about taking the daughter back to Malaysia without Emma.

Man, you know how Muslims are.

No. Tell me.

I'm not racist.

It's just, you know, the father always gets the kids.

That's just the way it is.

Noor even told her he should have married a Muslim girl.

He said he was going to take the daughter back

to Kuala Lumpur for good.

Did he? All right.

Thanks.

All right.

A guy a few doors up from the Noor house just called in.

He was out when we canvassed this morning.

He seems a bit upset about a whole lot

of nonresidential vehicles parked outside his house.

Could he give you any details?

Well, he sounded pretty old, so I'm

going to go have a talk to him.

[grimaces in pain]

I can get Kane to go.

It's fine.

He's just playing a bit of soccer in there.

You've decided on a name yet?

Well, we're fighting over a few.

[inaudible] likes Hugo.

Peter's popular in some circles.

I'll keep it in mind.

Thanks for coming.

That's all right.

Number's registered to an Edward Kirkbride.

Yeah, I'll just check.

EDWARD KIRKBRIDE (ON PHONE): I didn't mean to bother you,

but Jack's not answering his mobile.

SOPHIA ANGLETON (ON PHONE): What's this about?

EDWARD KIRKBRIDE (ON PHONE): Just tell him,

I've got his package.

SOPHIA ANGLETON (ON PHONE): John's

been killed in a car bomb.

EDWARD KIRKBRIDE (ON PHONE): Killed?

SOPHIA ANGLETON (ON PHONE): Who is this?

What's the package?

I'm Sophia, his wife.

I can take it.

[phone's hung up]

SOPHIA ANGLETON (ON PHONE): Hello?

[beep]

Kirkbride.

He was an immigration officer.

He lives in Canberra.

Your husband ever mention this guy?

No.

But I need to know what was in that package.

Come to Canberra with me. - I can't.

That's not my jurisdiction.

My husband had stolen visas in his safe.

Kirkbride's an immigration officer.

- Well, let Skeritt know, OK? - Skeritt?

Skeritt doesn't give a shit.

He's virtually closed the case and branded my husband--

- He's got to-- - --a traitor.

--know that.

He's got to know.

If my husband was guilty, I need

to be the first one to know.

If he was innocent, I need to prove it, Zane, please.

You're the only one I can trust.

Yeah?

There's a car out on the front of the house.

How many?

Looks like two occupants.

Right.

[suspenseful music]

Shit.

Dad, what the hell are you doing?

Jesus Christ.

Get inside the house.

I've had five jobs pulled from me since this morning.

I've been servicing these guys' holdings for years,

and now I'm not good enough to change their oil?

And this is all because of what this man is saying.

Zach, were you planning to take your daughter to Malaysia?

Yes.

Why didn't you mention that before?

Why should I?

I have a right to take my daughter

to visit her grandmother, her extended family.

Visit or stay?

My daughter's welfare is my first priority.

How'd your wife feel about that?

She wasn't a good mother.

She'd go out drinking.

She'd come home late.

She slept with another man.

She abandoned the sanctity of our marriage.

What would you do in the situation?

She couldn't even get up in the morning

to take my daughter to school.

I had to be mother and mechanic.

So you were just going to take her?

She is my child.

Emma's death made that easier.

It does.

Zach, did you kill your wife?

My daughter cries day and night.

Why should I inflict that kind of pain on my daughter?

I've seen fathers do a lot worse.

As I said, I was here working.

So somebody must have seen you at the pub yesterday,

so if you recognize anyone, you tell me, OK?

What about the rego?

The car was reported stolen four days ago.

They took off in a hurry.

Red light cameras might have something.

Yeah, it's on the list.

Right after booking you for discharging a firearm.

And when did you stop being a cop

and become a vigilante, dad?

I had to be showing that we're not pushovers, you know?

This is a complete waste of time.

Wasting time is what you've been doing all your life,

Craig.

Now, you get to put it to some good use.

I haven't seen these guys.

You have.

Why are you asking me?

Look, just think of every possible contact

your former employer, Emile Wong might use to track you down.

So, man, you're busy?

Yeah, what do you want?

I got to go to Canberra.

I want to talk to a guy down there who knew Angleton.

But the boss said the case is closed.

We've still got no answers.

But why are you're pushing this?

If Akmal kill didn't kill Angleton,

then someone's walking around out there who did, yeah?

So safe you go, yeah?

I knew.

It's her first contact.

He's going to trust her.

I just need a few hours.

Please do this for me.

Yeah, all right.

I'll cover you with the boss.

But you're on your own with your wife.

Yeah.

I tapped into Infotel.

Yeah, all right.

Kirkbride has quite a profile.

He's married with three kids.

Then he came out.

He had a long and solid career in Asia

before they reassigned him to Canberra.

Reassigned or investigating?

I don't know.

John never mentioned Kirkbride.

But then we never really talked much, even intimate things.

I mean, even if we did at the beginning,

it stopped by the end.

We even stopped making love.

We hadn't had sex in over a year.

I don't know why I'm telling you this.

That's all right.

It's the car.

It's kind of a confessional.

Not that you'd know, unless there's a Muslim equivalent.

I don't know, like, you have conversations with the imam.

Yeah, but it's not really the same.

Conversations are much more fun.

At least it's two-way.

In Islam, is a mistress counted as a second wife?

I guess that's a no.

John probably had affairs while we were together.

And if he had, I wouldn't mind.

But you'd probably have a different opinion on that.

Left a message on your phone last night.

Two, actually.

You never got back to me.

Richard, I--

You were trying to tell me something?

It was a family drama.

With Craig?

No, my father shot at someone.

You should have called me.

It was over in a second.

No, you should have called me.

Perhaps, I should give up knocking on your door.

I like you knocking.

Well, do you fancy having dinner tonight?

Sure.

Only you'll have to come to me because I can't leave

my father and brother alone.

OK.

Dinner with your old man.

I'll bring a bottle of red and a Kevlar vest.

Where's Malik?

We're looking into crossbows.

There's a few companies online that are exporting.

Yeah, well, presumably he's not in Penang, so where is he?

- I'll get him to call you. - OK.

Good. I want him in here.

There's a personal matter I want his help on.

OK.

Your husband will be branded a criminal,

possibly even a traitor.

Truth is not always what we would hope it to be.

Is that what you believe?

My husband was a traitor?

He made his choices.

His country judged him.

And they buried him a nobody.

And unfortunately for you, you're

left with a tarnished memory wondering what else was a lie.

Mr. Kirkbride, we understand Angleton

was involved in helping an illegal immigrant.

We don't know how or why, but we do know you were involved.

You don't know shit.

You're on a fishing expedition.

You said you had a package for you

Yeah.

Where is it?

In safekeeping.

May we see it?

You see, the problem that I have with you is

I don't know whether I can trust you.

Your husband certainly didn't.

That's not true.

Isn't it?

What was he really doing in Indonesia?

It is classified.

It was a secret.

Is that what he told you?

That's what I know to be the truth.

But is it the whole truth?

This is where you met Angleton, yeah?

Indonesia?

Yeah.

While you were processing refugees?

Processing some.

Rejecting most.

You see, you have to understand that these were families who

had been driven out from where they

came and were unwelcome where they were headed.

And I looked into their eyes, and I saw hope.

And I do not understand how anyone

can be indifferent to that.

Angleton had a list of names in his safe, Middle

Eastern names.

He had stolen visa.

I mean, he would have needed a friend in immigration.

Is that how it worked?

you were providing the paperwork for his illegal immigrants?

Let me tell you something, OK?

Generations of my family have fought for this country.

Tested on the battlefield where bullets fly

and things become very simple--

kill or be killed.

And every single one of those people was a hero.

They were fighting for the values

that you and I believe in.

Now, where do you think that you might

find heroes like that today, Detective Malik?

Well, the world's changed, Mr. Kirkbride.

Indeed, it has.

Disruption used to be a word, but then

it became a government policy.

What disruption?

Look it up.

Attach it to the word "program."

Go into your NSO files.

Why don't you just tell us?

Because I still believe in the country

that my grandfather fought for.

A place where people cared about each other,

where they looked after each other,

but that doesn't exist anymore.

What I see now is fear and paranoia and indifference.

What the hell was going on, Edward?

What was in the package you wanted to give him?

It's locked up.

If you want it, you better come back in the morning.

OK?

Hey, forensics got back.

They found red cotton fibers on the crossbow bolt.

OK, so Achilles used a cloth to wipe the prints?

Yeah, before he fired it, looks like it.

Oh, and the other thing.

That old bloke that lives near the Noor house,

it turns out he's obsessed with strange cars

parked near his house, so he writes

down every single rego number.

I mean, there's a train station a few blocks away.

People park and train out to work,

but I'm still going to check all the numbers out.

Well, look you're on limited duties for a reason.

I'm sure this can wait till the morning.

Yeah.

Come on, I'll walk you to your car.

OK, cheers.

So you got a date tonight?

Well, if you call dinner with your family a date,

yes, we have a date.

You know, I always thought Crowley was the man for you,

and when he died, I--

well, I'm just glad you've found someone new.

So this bloke's good in a crisis, is he?

Yeah, he's got a cool head, and he's loyal.

Hello.

Richard, hi.

Oh, really?

What a shame.

You sure you're not getting even?

No, no.

No, it's OK, really.

All righty, then.

Bye.

Yeah, he's-- he's not coming.

He got caught up in work.

Perfect match, isn't it?

Loves a crisis.

Just not ours.

Give me the bottle.

Come on.

Come on now.

[dramatic music]

You said you'd have dinner with the kids.

So what, we're talking overnight?

I'm gonna talk to someone first thing in the morning.

Then I'm on my way back.

All right.

Are you with Sonny?

No, I'm with Angleton's wife.

There was a lead we had to follow.

Hey, [inaudible] you're all right?

Yeah.

Sorry.

Well, I hope it all goes well.

I'll see you tomorrow.

I love you, Zane.

I love you too.

All right, bye.

Hi.

Hi.

I'll just be a minute.

OK.

No, thanks.

You don't mind that I'm drinking wine?

No, that's fine.

I was feeling a bit--

So what do--

I'm sorry.

No, you go.

I was going to ask you about the Garuda.

Because you said your husband wore it for good luck,

that maybe it was some NSO symbol, something

you needed to join the club.

You have an attitude towards the NSO.

The NSO-- anything counter-terrorism,

they're all spooks.

We're not there to frighten people, Zane.

We're there to protect.

NSO is about intelligence.

And the world's a puzzle.

It changes every moment, and I'm paid to work it out.

And that's what we've got in common, right?

We believe in what we do.

Except I'm accountable.

You're not.

The power exercised in--

It's not about power.

--secret under the guise of national security.

It's dangerous.

Do you think I'm dangerous?

Zane, I have feelings for you.

I don't know how it happened, but it has.

I've got this one night.

We're gonna be together.

Sophia, I find you very attractive.

Oh my god.

How's the wine?

Richard--

It's fabulous.

What are you doing here?

What am I doing here?

Can I have a word with you outside?

Richard--

I'm bound by the same oath as you, Richard.

You can say what you to say in front of--

- I don't think so. - --me.

I don't think there's a problem, Richard.

Now, what's your deal?

Does your boss know you're here?

What's that got to do with it?

You're so far out of your jurisdiction,

and you're dangerously close to compromising an NSO operation.

Kirkbride?

You knew of something between Angleton and Kirkbride,

and you keep it from me?

Kirkbride is a national security interest.

You're poking around way above your pay grade.

He's prepared to talk.

He's got information on Angleton.

NSO believes that Kirkbride is stealing documents.

Do you think he was selling them to my husband?

You're still here?

OK.

Listen, Edward Kirkbride, he's about to go down.

If you or Sophia are anywhere him, I cannot protect you.

Are you tapping my phone?

or you're tapping hers?

How the hell did you find us?

Listen, Kirkbride was stealing immigration documents,

selling them to Angleton.

Angleton was NSO.

Turned out that she's NSO.

At best, her loyalty is subject.

Her commitment to NSO is unquestionable.

She's a widow. Show some compassion.

Compassion?

Is that what you're doing down here?

a little compassion errand? - What?

What, she shows you a sign, and you're now like a dog

eating beaver? - Beg your pardon?

Look, I've been around longer than you.

How do you know you can trust her?

How do you know she's not running a--

She's after the truth.

Don't you think she deserves that?

Don't be so naive.

Her husband was a traitor.

He and Kirkbride were bringing illegal immigrants

into the country.

How much was in Angleton's safe?

100 grand?

You multiply that by a thousand.

Then add some.

Was it her idea not to tell me?

How do you know that she's not involved in this?

How do you know?

[music - "peter and the wolf"]

NARRATOR (ON TAPE): Early one morning,

Peter opened the garden gate and walked into the forest

to play with his friends.

Recognize this?

No, I don't.

Mum used to play it all the time.

Maybe it was just something special she did with you.

NARRATOR (ON TAPE): This is a dangerous place, he said.

If a wolf should come along, then what would you do?

And so grandfather took Peter by the hand,

let him back to the garden, and closed the gate.

Suddenly, a hungry wolf did appear in the forest.

And that's how I got my name.

Peter and the Wolf, remember?

I always wanted to be Peter.

No, I'm sorry, Craig.

I don't remember it.

I'm out of here.

No, you're not. You're safe here.

- Craig.

Come on.

I wanna get out.

You're safer here.

You shot their car. up.

They're not coming back.

MICK: I'm trying to protect you.

[shouting]

Yeah, what do you got?

I'm in the car park outside the flats on Milperra Beach.

Yeah, I know the one.

Boss, it's another crossbow.

Is Malik with you?

No.

Well, where is he?

He's tied up.

Family.

If you're hiding something from me, Koa, I won't be happy.

Bye. - All right.

What have you got?

Got an ID.

You don't need to do this.

Stay in the car.

Stay in the car.

Deo, what happened?

She did this to him.

As soon as she arrived in his doorstep,

he knew you would be onto him.

And you might as well have delivered the bullet

he used to kill himself.

You can't be sure it's suicide.

How long do you think a homosexual traitor

would last in prison?

And that's after the press has chewed up

his 20 years of loyal public service and spat at him

in the court system.

I suggest when you drive back to Sydney,

you just think about what have you done.

Smile now.

Deo, I'm so sorry.

Can you tell us anything what happened last night?

After you left, you started drinking,

and his whole mood changed.

We argued.

Did anyone come around?

I don't know.

I got angry, and I stayed with a friend.

Then when I came home--

We got to get out of here, all right?

- Zane. - Get in the car.

The package.

It was us.

We did this.

No, no.

It wasn't that.

Do you think I'm a complete bastard?

I know you are.

I was thinking about you the entire night.

Really?

And what were you doing while you were thinking?

Oh?

No, I was in Canberra.

Duty or pleasure?

It was a small place, Canberra.

You never know who you're going to run into.

So you ran into someone, and I'm missing a detective.

What the hell was Malik doing in Canberra?

He was visiting a highly placed public servant,

Edward Kirkbride.

Works in immigration.

Immigration?

After he visited--

I should say, "they" because he was with Sophia Angleton--

Kirkbride committed suicide.

Oh, shit.

Boss, we're going to go on without him?

- Without who? - Malik.

Bloody Malik. Yeah.

Thanks, Richard.

Detective Koa, do the words "integrity" and "Canberra"

mean anything to you?

Right.

Our deceased is Adam Kalakis.

31, single merchant banker.

Crossbow bolt in his neck.

It's the same make as the one that killed Emma Noor,

and forensics have confirmed.

They've found traces of the same red cotton fibers on the bolt.

So we're looking for a psycho Robin Hood.

All right.

It's the same weapon, same killer.

There has to be a link between our two victims, something

that ties us to our killer.

We've got a possible witness.

A jogger spotted his car parked next to a silver station wagon.

Did they see the driver?

Didn't take notice.

How are you going with your elderly gentleman's

list and pictures?

Yeah, I'm still working through it.

It's pretty long. - OK.

Well, just pay particular attention

to anything painted silver.

You obviously have no respect for me or my leadership.

I do have respect for your--

That is bullshit.

Respect is built on trust, and at the moment,

I'm getting none.

Now, what have you got?

Kirkbride was going to talk to us.

He had a package he was going to deliver to Angleton.

He agreed to give that to us, and then he ends up dead.

Don't you think that's suspicious?

Well, from the file I've seen, the visas

found in Angleton's safe were part

of a batch Kirkbride stole.

You trust NSO?

Well, I have no reason not to.

They've withheld vital information from us.

Two people have tried to give me information on this case.

They've both been murdered.

The report suggests no suspicious circumstances

in Kirkbride's death.

Kirkbride was going to blow the whistle

on something very big. I'm telling you, boss.

He was going to talk to us.

No, he was planning to kill himself.

He was just trying to buy time.

Yeah, but this whole mess just strengthens my doubt

that Akmal killed Angleton.

And on the "us" issue, you be careful, Zane.

Her grief is not your burden.

Sophia needs to accept that maybe

her husband wasn't the perfect man she thought he was.

Maybe he was leading a double life.

People keep secrets, even husbands and wives.

You can go.

"The way is dark, and in the gloom,

it looks very difficult. The hoopy replies, 'we cannot

meet these [inaudible]."

Why are we even talking about this?

I told you the truth.

You've got to trust me.

I'm not accusing you of lying, Zane.

[inaudible] I would never deceive you.

Maybe you deceived yourself.

Look, I made a mistake, OK.

I'm sorry.

Forgive me.

Zane, I admire your drive.

I always have.

But can't you see what's happening?

You're becoming a stranger to your own family.

RAHMAN MALIK: "Only a man who has been tested and is free--"

Give me a second.

RAHMAN MALIK: "--can understand this at the valleys of love."

Lucy

Zane, stop a moment.

You should see the good part of it.

Baba, I just wanna-- let me see this one.

Baba, please.

NEWSREADER (ON TV): The Canberra man

found dead in his home has been named as Mr. Edward Kirkbride.

Allegations are now being made linking Mr. Kirkbride

with an illegal immigration scheme that

may have nationwide contact.

[inaudible] you always couldn't resist it.

You know, I thought he might get lonely, need some friends,

so I got a whole bunch of them.

Then I remembered that you like finches.

Yeah.

Zebras and double-barreds.

Nice, neat little bird they are.

The peach faces remind me of Patsy because they're

loyal and affectionate.

The canaries remind me of mum because of their singing.

Mum never sang in front of me.

She had the voice of an angel.

Present from Craig.

It's wonderful.

Costly.

It's a gift for dad from the universe.

That was very generous of the universe, wasn't it?

OK, rego of one of the vehicles parked in [inaudible]

What about it?

Silver station wagon belonging to Karl Blazek.

Now, Blazek, he's been charged with rebirthing cars.

He's got a court case in one month.

Guess who's due to give evidence against him?

Kalakis.

Yeah, but he's not the only one.

Emma.

No, her husband Zacchariah Noor was helping

in the case against Blazek.

And Blazek wouldn't have known that Noor

moved out of his home. - Yeah, yeah.

So he sees a figure behind the screen door, fires,

kills the wrong person.

And it ain't over yet because there's

a third witness, Irene Zahra.

I'll organize protection for Noor and his daughter.

You get in contact with her, and you

let her know to lock her place up

and don't let anyone in until we get there.

I've already done it, mate. There's no answer here.

It's our third witness.

So how did Canberra go, man?

What?

How'd it go?

She's beautiful, man, but nothing happened.

You're only human.

You're not perfect, eh?

Hey, look out.

That's our Robin Hood.

Police.

Don't move.

Keep your hands where we can see them.

Don't move.

Do not move.

Do not move.

All right, on 3, we're up.

1, 2, 3.

Up.

Karl Blazek, yeah?

You're under arrest for murder.

You do not have to say or do anything unless you wish to.

Anything you say or do may be recorded

and later given in evidence.

You understand that?

I'm going to assume you do.

Let's get out of here.

Come on.

He was after you, not her.

You were going to be a witness at his trial.

How did he know where to find us?

The wrong papers were sent to his lawyer.

Had your address on them.

It was a mistake.

Emma was killed because of a mistake?

That's right.

I'm sorry.

You thought I was guilty.

My mother asked me not to marry her.

But Emma was so lovely.

I couldn't help myself.

How are ya?

Good.

This is God's punishment for me.

I'm sorry.

NEWSREADER (ON TV): Some viewers may find

following footage disturbing.

A bomb went off in Baghdad's Bird Market today, killing 57.

Most of the victims were women and children.

The suicide bomber was a female aged 19.

Allahu Akbar.

[non-english speech]

Look, look, look.

It was a bomb in the Bird Market in Baghdad.

A lot of children were killed.

Did you call? Hey, turn it off there.

Did you call?

Yeah, I did, but I called your mother.

I can't get through.

Baba, it's going to be all right.

Mum is all right, all right?

I will call and find out.

Maybe that's a [inaudible].

Don't jump to conclusions, OK?

Is it Baghdad service at the moment?

Deo's here with the package from Kirkbride.

OK, keep him there, all right? I'm on my way.

I promise this--

What do you mean, you're on your way?

- --won't take long. - I've got to--

Hang on a sec.

What do you mean, you're on your way?

I promise this won't take long.

- Zane, look. - Mum is all right.

Mum is all right.

Zane, you can't leave when you're dad's so upset.

Nothing's happened to her, all right?

We'll find out.

We'll call them, and we'll find out.

You're not going anywhere. Don't.

- I have to deal with this. - No.

Daddy's too upset.

I'll be back soon.

Zane.

Baba, turn it off.

Come here.

[non-english].

So who are these people?

Whoever they are, they were all important to Edward.

They look like family keepsakes.

Parents, children.

Different cameras, different places.

[inaudible] graduating.

That's his family.

I know this guy.

His name's Amin Khuder.

Do you know where Edward got these photos from?

I think some of them came from a photojournalist in Indonesia.

The others are personal.

Do you know anything about these photos?

It has something to do with what

happened before I met Edward.

Now, I'm giving them to you, so you can be

burdened by them like he was.

These photos, are they the reason

why you think Edward killed himself?

Edward didn't kill himself.

How can you be so sure?

His reputation meant everything to him.

Deo, can you tell us anything about what

happened in Indonesia?

All I know is people lost their lives,

and Edward blamed this man.

Sapara.

SAPARA (ON RECORDING): We need to organize

another sailing trip soon.

I have customers ready to go.

I want them shipped on the day we agreed but not here.

I want them to go to an associate in Sydney.

MAN (ON RECORDING): The weather problem will still

make it difficult to move them.

SAPARA (ON RECORDING): Do it now.

My schedule's locked in.

It cannot be changed.

Sapara.

Also known as Tim Mukhtar and more recently, Arif Mukhtar.

Akmal sold the Claymores to Sapara.

Well, we know Sapara's got experience with explosives.

We think Sapara's used one of his own Claymores

to blow up Angleton.

What's the motive?

I don't know, but Sapara's a strategic violent man.

Kirkbride held Sapara responsible for something

that happened in Indonesia.

Angleton was stationed there in about the same time.

I think it's possible Angleton may have hurt him in some way.

Maybe he was about to.

It comes back to Akmal's arms dealing.

How does that link to Kirkbride's suicide?

His nice little earner was about to be exposed.

Richard, is NSO giving us everything on Arif Mukhtar?

Yeah?

Can you also look for intel on Sapara?

Contact the feds.

They've got a fair bit on him.

Right.

I need to take [inaudible].

Can I trust you two to continue this without starting a war?

And they sit down on the feet of god, the son of his majesty,

like a mirror.

But how could the moth save himself from the flame

when he wishes to be part of the flame?

[music playing]

[dramatic music]

[theme music]

Deceased 60-year-old male, bruising on his

cheeks from a chipped tooth.

We have a surgeon who is lying in that morgue.

A much admired, much venerated man.

He gave people their lives.

My daughter died because of him.

You blokes are onto this, are you?

We're doing everything we can to find him.

Families aren't what they're cracked out to be.

Mine has just cracked.

[inaudible]

How dare you put my team at risk!

Was she accessing intelligence on your behalf?

No.

Are you having an affair with her?

[inaudible], I'm sorry.

Sorry for what, Zane?

Do you know?
