Don't have to steal from the desperate.

And Wolf, stop making the beer.

Now I feel really stink.

I have a little somethingthat could be promising.

Oh yeah, what is it?

You know my new friend, Talita?

Odahu's answer to Shirley Bassey?

Where's she from?

- Odahu. - No.

Where's she from?

The point is she works for a business

that's not going under.

[rock music plays]

Goodness, Talita.

You brought all this?

Perks of the job. I'm at Wooley's.

Someone took your cash?

Office-- accounts and payroll.

Oh.

How do you know Bilkey?

I saw him in the nightclub.

And I said to my girlfriend, hands off.

That booty is mine.

And is it-- all yours?

Oh, he will be.

Don't you worry.

I didn't bring anything.

Sorry.

Don't worry about it, sweetheart.

This is Bilkey's friend Talita.

Hi.

I love your hair.

Thanks.

[whimpering]

Carol, what is it?

Oh, oh.

What happened to you?

I was getting the asparagusout of the cupboard,

then I walked into the door.

The door-- it does happen.

The one with the fist on it.

It's probably my fault. I--

I thought I'd give myself a Farrah Fawcett.

Then Phineas says, why haveyou tattered yourself up?

And I go, I'm a hairdresser.

And he says, because you have to [inaudible]

If he's jealous, at least it shows he cares.

By smacking her one.

You can always getthem back in other ways--

hide their khakis, iron abig hole in their underwear.

[loud music on radio]

Take that, you sissy!

Hey!

Rita!

You can dish it out, butyou can't bloody take it!

[inaudible] Asshole!

Rita!

Hey! What?

Pick on someone your own size.

Got it?

[men laughing]

[MUSIC - HELLO SAILOR, "WATCH YOUR BACK"]

[SINGING] And when you'rewalking down the alley

Watch your back Watch your backWhen you're out on the streets

And there's danger on the street these days

You can't see it through thefog and haze Well, everybody's

going crazy Everybody's goingcrazy Everybody's going crazy.

[car shuts down]

Here we go.

Hope they make it snappy.

It's bloody cold down here.

No colder than Anderson.

[inaudible]

Of course it's cold.

No, it's not.

And you know everything?

Had a wit with Rita about the other night.

Told her what's what.

Don't go around beating up on my gang.

Well, they shouldn't go aroundbeating up on their wives.

She's very, very sorry.

RITA WEST: You want me toapologize to that big bully?

Well, I've got to tell him something.

Tell him he's a fuckwit and a moron,

and he needs to pull his head in.

She said she's very fond of you.

And it was just the time of the month.

On the rag, eh?

Yeah, you know how they get.

Ah, yeah.

Hooray for me at a breakfast.

I brought her into line.

Don't you worry about that.

You know I'm right.

So say it.

Never. [groans]

Say it.

Bit of argy-bargy, but,uh, now it's all settled.

All right.

Righto.

Off we go.

Christ, it's the pigs!

Do we go ahead?

[sighs] We're not doinga job with the pigs around.

Come on, let's get out of here.

[engine starts]

Your girlfriend wouldn'thave said anything?

What about? She has no idea.

What are you doing?

I'm a bit lost.

[everyone sighs]

Let's check the map.

This is Vogel Place.

So it's right onto Holloway.

No, this isn't Vogel.

It's not a dead end.

We need to go back and read.

It's upside down, isn't it?

Hey, I'm the bloody driver, all right?

Who got us bloody lost.

Get down.

What do we do now?

Nothing suspicious.

Stay where we are.

[police bang on door]

I need to piss.

Well, hold onto it.

Can't I just get out?

We're not going anywhere until they do.

I'm busting.I could just open the door--

Stop.

[dog barks]

Wait.

What did they do?

They're bullahs.

It's not a crime.

They're just kids.

Who are overstayers.

They're still just kids.

At least we can get out of here.

I really need that piss.

Hey, hold it.

[does karate cry]

What the fuck is he doing?

Kung Fu.

Looks like a twit.

Agh!

Ooh.

[laughter]They've been doing the uprights.

Hey, you!

Hey!

Run, ya bugger.

All right, Bert. Get us out of here.

Can I [inaudible] first?

No, drive first, then piss.

I really [breathing hard]need to go.

Has anyone got a bottle he can piss in?

- Don't talk about it. - Look out!

[brakes screech]

- Oh, shit! - God, Bert!

That's him-- Kung Fu kid.

Oh, Bert, not now.

Pair off.

Get lost.

Maybe he doesn't speak English.

Course I do.

Bilkey, open the door.

Get in.

Why?

Because we're offering you a ride.

Do you want to suck my cock?

What?

No, why would we want to do that?

He is exposing himself.

He's just desperate. Get in.

Are you kiddie [inaudible]?

No.

[sighs] Christ, do youwant a fucking ride or not?

OK. But no cock sucking.

Bert, hurry it up.

[inaudible]

Very pleased to make your acquaintance.

I am Falani.

Shouldn't we bug off?

I know they don't look like much.

But my friend reckonsthat they're worth a lot.

I'll take the other stuff.

She got them in lieu of payment, see,

and well, she's about hard up, and--

All right. I'll check it out.

Oh, you're a sweetheart, Rita.

Thanks. - See you, love.

See you.

- Who was that woman? - Lois.

She runs the Park Drive Motel.

Oh, it's a terrible dive.

On the plus side, people arealways leaving things behind.

I can see why you'd leave this.

Lois has a friend out in[inaudible] who's driving

some alchy around-- an artist.

Collin Mc-- someone.

What's that meant to be?

A hill?

Virgin Mary?

Who'd want them on their wall?

This one's just words.

My six-year-old has better handwriting.

Carol, what's wrong now?

I just had a run-in with Phineas's mother.

She called me a Protestant whore.

Oh, wow.

So I called her anevil old bitch, and ugly.

It'll be all right.

Oh, Phineas will go onmental when he finds out.

And she's come to stay for a month.

It's bad enough with him saying I'm all

over men without her telling me I'm

a barren slut who can't cook.

Who gives a hoot what the old bat thinks?

She's right about the cooking.

Carol, look at me.

You don't have to put up with this.

He hasn't bashed me since you laid into him.

He's not bashing you ever again.

And you tell Phineas his mother has to go.

She's just had a hernia operation.

Well, if she won't go,then you don't have to stay.

You mean leave?

Well, you don't want to do anything hasty.

It's better than not doing anything at all.

It will never change unless you make a stand.

You need to give yourself a break.

You are truly good Samaritansand not kiddie [inaudible]..

Nope, not us.

So the cops are on your way regular?

You don't know?

No.

They come in the night, or early in the morning.

They stop people on the streets.

Looking for overstayers?

Pulling people from theirbeds, scaring the ladies--

the little children?

Well, if they don't likeit, they should go home.

It is their homes thecops are taking them from.

They live here.

They have jobs here.

Other people's jobs.

Who's jobs?

New Zealanders'-- people from here.

Where are you from, then?

Here, but I was born in Belfast.

Oh, did your mother do it with a black fellow?

[snickers]

How dare you.

He's brown, isn't he?

I'm Black Irish is all.

And I'm not from some islandin the middle of nowhere.

This island joined to Britain?

No.

It's the British Isles,and we have a connection,

and we speak English.

- I speak English. - But you're brown.

So you're not from here.

- What about him? - That's different.

He's a married, not a bullah.- That is racist.

Well, it's what you're called--

darkie, coconut, bullah.

All right, all right.

All right, we're going tocalm it down right about now.

Our friend here might bea coconut, but none of us

love the pigs.

I'm into that.

It's our doing a job on these cops up the wazoo.

Come now, boy, and let's get you home.

Thank you for your fine foodand your kind hospitality.

No worries.

All right.

Hello, love.

We'll get out of your hair so you can tidy up.

All right, see you later.

Yeah, thanks, Lefty.

Thanks for breakfast.

How'd it go?

It was a bit of trouble.

Well, now there'll be more trouble you.

You mark my words.

Rita's been stirring again.

They say islanders are taking all the jobs.

But my people take the jobs no one wanted.

Yeah, but there aren't so manyjobs anymore, any sort of jobs.

And is that our fault?

Probably not, now you mention it.

[knocks]

Hello?

Anyone home?

My place has been robbed.

The floor mats, the TV!

My cassette player!

It'll be the Tongans. - How do you know?

They steal anything that's not nailed down.

[inaudible]

Right-o.

It's not the first time.

Every time a Samoan family gets taken away,

they clean the place out.

What are you doing?

I will wreak vengeance onthe Tongans down the road

and find my cassette player.

Maybe not such a good plan.

The Bible says an eye for an eye.

You don't want to get picked up by the cops.

And I've got locks to change in Swanson.

Locks?

Yeah, it's my job.

Look, have you got anyoneelse you could stay with?

All my family is taken away.

Except apart from my second cousin,

who stays in [inaudible] andmy uncle on my mother's side.

But he stays down in [inaudible]..

It's very cold down there.

I have been faithful to himall the years of our marriage.

And I'm not a slut.

I'm just friendly.

Funny, I've been able to have children.

You're so lucky to have this one.

You're going to be a realheartbreaker one day,

aren't you, Wolfie?

Hmm-hmm.

Hello?

Hello.

Carol's come to stay over.

This is Falani.

Said he could keep down for a bit.

Good afternoon, ladies.

This is my son, Wolf.

My wife, Mrs. West.

And Phineas's wife, Mrs. O'Driscoll.

Phineas the racist?

He's married to an angel.

[laughs] That is the look I was going for.

RITA WEST: Excuse us for a minute.

I thought you were doing a job, not

picking up waifs and strays.

Yeah, there was a bit of a hitch in that.

He's got nowhere else to go.

Jesus, Ted.

You're such a softy.

Me?

What the hell was going on with Carol?

She just needs a bit of time out.

You don't get between a man and his wife.

[car approaches]

[tires screech]

Lefty says you got my wife here.

I do, as a matter of fact.

Carol!

Carol, get your bloody ass out here!

Hey, mate, why don't you comeinside, have a chat about it?

Carol!

Get in the car.

No.

Get in the bloody car.

I'm not going to, and you can't make me.

We'll see about that.

I'm not coming home.

What?

I'm leaving you, you idiot.

And I never want to see you again.

So there.

You walk out on me, and youwon't see another bloody penny!

I don't see a bloody penny anyway,

and I pay for the groceries.

You're a tight bastard who onlycares about his stupid mamie.

[ANGRILY] Don't you talk about my mamie!

Bugger her and her bloodyrosary, and her stupid saints.

Inside now.

I was making a stand.

Inside now.

Come on, Phineas.Let's take it somewhere else.

Hey, hey, hey!

Come on.

Come on, let's go somewhere else, OK?

It's your bloody wife putting ideas in her.

Carol can think for herself.

Sometimes.

Surely you two can work this out.

No, she's done.

She's done [inaudible].

Maybe if your mom went home.

PHINEAS O'DRISCOLL: What areyou saying about my mamie?

Nothing.

Nothing at all.

So when are we going to do this job?

It's just Talita wants another day.

Talita?

She's a babe.

Yeah, well, you're welcome to her.

How could that happen when she's keen on you?

We can't have another crackat the job until next Thursday.

Why?

Because that's the daythey bring the payroll, Bert.

Hey, that's right.

[inaudible]

You don't want to do that.

We were married in the sight of God.

She can't walk out on me.

Give her some space.

Don't tell me what to do.

You and your wife actingall high and bloody mighty.

Well, you can bloody-- - Come on, mate.

Nah.

You can stick the lot of it.

While she's at your bloody house, I'm out.

Out of what?

The game.

I've had it.

[breathing heavily] I've had it up to here!

Just what we needed.

[grunts and groans]

[disco music plays]

[laughs]

Woo!

Ow!

Shake that booty!

Woo-oo!

Come on, Wolfie, don't be shy.

I'm not dancing the disco.

Aw.

Music for your soul, man.

Hi, Ted.

How are ya?

Been better.

Falani's showing Carolhow to do the Samoan hustle.

Is he now?

I haven't had this much fun in years.

OK.

might be time to wrap up this party.

Your room's down the end of the hall.

Your bed's made up.

Bless you, Mrs. West, forinviting me into your home,

for your lovely food, andpity for the homeless.

My pleasure.

Whoops.

Ooh, lean on me, Mrs. O'Driscoll.

Call me Carol.

Lean on me, Mrs. Carol.

CAROL O'DRISCOLL: [laughs]

[laughs]

That guy is weird.

RITA WEST: He has very nicemanners, and he did the dishes.

Disco sucks.

How long's Carol going to be staying?

As long as she wants to be.

Phineas says he's quittingthe gang on account of it.

Oh, how terrible.

It's not great, Rita.

I really don't want to argue.

How long is that boy going to be staying?

Thought you didn't want to argue.

You know how I feel aboutmen who beat up on women.

Yeah, and I'm not a fan ofMuldoon and his bully boys.

Well, we both have our principles,

and that makes us quits, doesn't it?

Where are you going to on this fine day?

School.

Ah, I don't do school.

I do my living on the streetsand the university of life.

Like disco dancing?

I also know martial arts--

how to please the lady.

[chuckles] Oh, yeah.

And I can see into the future.

Eh, I bet you $2 that in 10 minutes,

I'll be driving a kickass [inaudible]..

Bullshit.

[engine starts]

$2.

You got something for me, Ted?

I want to report a crime.

No, coming from you, that is funny.

It's the [inaudible].

Now your lot are busting intohouses looking for overstayers.

[inaudible] we're not, thank, Christ.

You're still a copper.

And you know other coppers.

What about it?

Poor bastards in South Auckland

have the cops taking them way.

Then buggers are coming inand stealing all their stuff.

Tragedy.

But what do you care?

Young friend of my acquaintance

told me what was going on.

Well, maybe he should call the police.

Then he'll get taken away.

Look, I'm not a fan ofthese bloody raids any more

than you are.

It's Muldoon going totake the heat off himself.

I don't love the coconuts, but it's not

like they buggered the economy.

What the hell do youexpect me to do about it?

Well, your mates in South Auckland-- tell

them to do their bloody job.

That's the address of thehouse that got cleaned out.

This is very community minded of you, Ted.

There's a line between right and wrong.

And speaking of lines, howdid you come to be down the line

in South Auckland?

Just passing through.

We were going fishing.

Sure, you were.

It's a free country.

Or it's meant to be.

If you say so, Ted.

- Hello, [inaudible]. - No.

I have an appointment.

I'm very sorry.

But I am in no fit state to work.

Hmm.

Yes, Lefty tells me you've left Phineas.

Yes.

He's very upset, apparently.

Passed out drunk is what Ted told me.

It's hard for men.

They don't know how todeal with their feelings.

You want me to feel sorry for him?

He's saying he'll leave the gang.

You want me to get back with him

because of the precious gang?

I just think you need to be practical.

You know there's this new law coming in.

What law?

The matrimonial property thingy.

If you wait a couple of months,then you can take him for all

he's got, or half of it.

I don't care.

But it's not fair.

In all these years, and you get nothing.

But I don't get nothing.

I have my insurance.

You mean the krugerrands?

Sure.

That was for when our men weren't around.

CAROL O'DRISCOLL: But I don't have a man around.

I'm going to buy myself acar, get some new clothes.

Maybe I'll even take [inaudible]out on a date in my new car

wearing my new clothes.

Phineas can suck on that.

See you at home.

I'll get something for tea.

That will be a worry.

We have a bigger problemthan a burnt bloody dinner.

Maybe.

Forget maybe.

You heard what she said.

Carol's never been discreetat the best of times.

She's all talk.

If she starts shooting her mouse off, fooling

around the krugerrands, you knowyou and I are in serious shit.

How was school?

All right.

What did you get, Falani?

I had a quiet day--

thinking of my family, feeling sad for them.

[tires squealing]

Woo-hoo!

If you wanted to callthem, that would be fine.

Alas, they have no phone in Samoa.

Hello, everyone.

I got the tea.

Fried chicken-- this is manna from heaven.

I've been thinking about cooking.

And bugger it.

From now on, I'm going to buy everything.

I like this plan.

It's going to be takeawaysevery night, or I'm going out.

Sounds expensive.

I'm a woman of means.

And this woman needs to party.

Woman of means?

What's she on about?

She's got her sell on.

If Phineas goes out on his own,

it could be bad for all of us.

You know what he's likeafter he's had a few drinks.

It's not a reason forhim to get back with Carol.

And I've made up my mind on this.

[knocking]

I don't want to [inaudible].

But what?

Only Carol's showing Falanihow to play strip poker.

Who's winning?

Falani.

He's on his [inaudible].

[disco music plays]

You know, my husband is a robber.

You're kidding.

They all rob all sorts ofthings-- jewelry stores, TAB.

Falani, Carol's a little bit drunk.

Oh, no.

That's terrible.

And you should really get to bed.

OK.

Good night.

[inaudible]

[turns music off]

What the hell do you think you're playing at?

I was just having a bit of fun, that's all.

You know the rules.

We don't talk about what our husbands do.

But he's not my husband anymore.

And leaving him was the best thing I ever did.

[music plays]

VOCALISTS [SINGING]: And I'lltake you home on a bright

and sunny morning We dancedall night until pale moonlight

And now the day is dawning

I think it might be a good idea if Carol gets

back together with Phineas.

Thought you'd made up your mind.

I just wanted her to stop being a doormat

so Phineas would get his act together.

Well, you know that's not very likely.

Well, now, it's fucking essential.

And I need your help on this.

Hey, Mrs. West.

And Mrs. Carol.

Hi.

Oh, he's such a sweetie.

Adorable.

But we are off to work.

See you, boys.

Hey, Ted.

Did you, by any chance, hear from the police

about the robbers?

No, afraid not.

I'll spot you later.

[QUIETLY] Hey.

Is your father really a bank robber?

Safe cracker.

Cool.

He's like Superman with this double identity.

Good day, Ted.

Could I talk to you aboutyour mates down the line?

About what?

The robberies.

I made inquiries.

But the homeowners had made a complaint.

How could they when they've been deported?

It's not my job to save the world, Ted.

I'll leave that to you.

What did he want?

Wanted to know what wewere doing in South Auckland

in the middle of the night.

I told him it wasn't the middle of the night.

It was closer to the morning.

Was that a wrong thing to say?

No, no.

It's good, Phineas.

If he asks again, just tell him we were

passing through, going fishing.

Yeah, that would've been good.

How are you going?

Well, it's a bit tough.

Carol used to bring in the housekeeping.

She'd go on at me about not pulling my weight.

Look, we do that payroll joband we're right back on track.

And you know, Carol--

she misses you.

She said she never wanted to see me again.

She was up all nightcrying something terrible.

Ah, she drives me crazythe way she goes on at me.

Maybe we're better off apart.

Women-- they're not the same as us.

Half the time, they're awash with hormones.

It's no wonder they speak awhole lot of crazy rubbish.

There's that effect.

You got to make allowances for them--

treat them kind.

It's a lot like dealing with horses.

[inaudible].

But Mamie's offered to stay on and cook.

Is that what you want?

At your age?

I'll tell you what.

Shout your mum a trip to seeyour sister in [inaudible]..

Come over to the house and see Carol

and tell her how you feel.

That she drives me crazy?

But in a good way.

Nice wheels.

That yours?

Don't think so.

Phineas, nice to see you.

You too.

Hi.

Where'd you get that from?- Nowhere.

Where'd you get it?

We'll pick this up later.

Is Carol here? - Yeah.

She's probably in her room.

She's down here.

[clears throat]

[moaning]

See?

I told you she was upset.

Maybe she's unwell.

[moaning]

[knocks]

Carol, Phineas is here to see you.

Carol, love, I've got a few things--

CAROL O'DRISCOLL: [screams][inaudible],, get out!

Get out!

Carol!

Son of a bitch, I'll replace this!

No!

Phineas.

No, mate.

You-- you want a brown cock?

Piss off!

- Who else have you slept with?- No one.

Come on, mate.

Honestly, Carol, how is this helping anyone?

I got my first decent root in years!

For fuck's sake, put some clothes on.

I'm real sorry, mate.

You started it.

If you hadn't picked up that brown bastard

in the first place--

OK, it's not the best.

And I will deal with it.

And my loyalty is still with you.

As if--

We're still doing the job.

And Carol has overstepped the mark.

She has.

And she won't be staying--

not anymore.

Thanks for this, love.

Yeah, no worries.

And, uh, you just yell ifyou need anything, kid.

All right?

I don't think this is very fair.

What's not fair?

Kicking me out, taking Phineas's side.

You let Falani stay.

He's practically a fucking orphan.

And you went and rooted him.

He rooted me, actually.

He's a teenager.

He's hung like a donkey.

And you told me to take a stand.

Not flat on your back!

You're a grown woman, Carol.

You need to sort your shit out.

I have-- like you told me.

You got backhanded. Big deal.

You said it was wrong.

Some people get broken arms, cracked ribs.

They lose a fucking spleen.

That happen to you?

[sighs] No.

He only ever broke my wrist.

Ted did?

My dad.

Did the rest to my mother.

Oh, shit, babe.

I didn't know.

What have you done with your krugerrands?

What's that got to do with anything?

The krugerrands-- how you got them--

if that ever gets out, it would screw

everything between me and Ted.

I would never tell.

Not ever.

But if I'm going to get a newlife, then I need to sell them.

And that is my right.

I'm very sorry formaking trouble and fooling

around with Mrs. Carol.

But she's the most beautifulwoman I've ever been with.

You've had others?

Heaps-- in the pages of Playboy.

Well, babies on paper area whole lot less trouble.

Now, where did all this crap come from?

South Aukland.

We went to see some Tongans.

Is this the stuff they took from your house?

Not exactly.

But they probably sold it, because they'd

sell their grandmothers.

What's the story withthe car parked out front?

It's a bit dinged becausethe tomans be bad drivers.

But, uh, it's my gift to you and Mrs. West.

All right.

You two need to listen up and learn some rules.

I bow to the wisdom of the master safe cracker.

Where did you hear that from?

First rule.

You don't leave stolen goods parked out front

or wherever a cop can see them.

Far out and solid.

He's the man.

Second rule.

You don't steal from your own kind.

They're not my kind.

They're Tongans.

You don't steal for revenge.

That's just dirty pool.

There are two sorts of people in this world--

the rich and the poor.

Now you can rob from the rich all you like,

because they deserve it.

But you never steal from the poor.

You got it?

You want us to give all the stuff back?

Well, now, that would justbe plain fucking stupid.

Yeah, it's a nice,clean job on the hot wire.

This boy's got potential.

Send that over to your family, help them out.

That's my other rule.

Think of others, don't get greedy.

You are like Jesus, as well as Superman.

Maybe seeing the similarity.

But if you want to find outwho these toreg thieves are--

We should leave it to the cops.

Bugger that for a joke.

You are truly a great manto help strangers in need,

solving crime.

You are like Starsky and Hutch,as well as Jesus and Superman.

Do you ever bloody stop talking?

Here we go.

Why don't you get out thereand fight their racist asses?

That would just get us arrested.

The cops-- they're fascists.

True.

Why did you check in the mirror?

Force of habit.

Here we go.

Holy crap, Batman.

Who is it?

That's the son of a minister.

He's a Tongan.

Yeah.

How would he know about this?

The people.

They call the minister when there's a problem.

That bastard.

Now, can I do some vengeance?

Go for your life, son.

[pounds on window]

[dog barks]

Mike, what brings you to these parts?

Just wondering what bringsyou to these parts again.

Just looking out for the youngfriend that I told you about.

[kung fu cries]

Good to know.

Yeah, there he is now with the robber.

Good to know.

[screams]

Well, your mate's quite fast, isn't he?

For a big fella.

Thought you weren't interestedin what happens down here.

Oh, I'm alwaysinterested, kid, especially

where you're concerned.

Oh, Rita, what a great place.

And you have some lovely jewelry too.

Don't you think?

Yeah.

Nice.

Well, I'd stay and browse,but we'll make a date

for another time, won't we?

Bye, handsome.

Bye.

See ya.

See ya.

Oh, Christ.

Rita, I don't know how muchlonger I can put her off.

Can't you just string heralong 'til after the job?

She'll be slighted when sherealizes I took advantage.

You could flick her some cash.

You heard.

What she wants is a ring.

So get her one.

Wedding ring.

- Oh, that's tricky. - Yeah.

You're telling me.

And then she's got four brothers.

And one of them's a Reisler.

Oh.

[laughter]

- You poor bastard. - Oh my God.

Is that--

A lot of bad handwriting.

No, it's a McCann.

They're what?

Colum McCann, the artist.

He's famous.

You mean that these ugly things

are actually worth something?

Well, Christ, yes.

And you have two.

Could you find a way to offload them?

Happy to, sweetheart.

Lawless.

Hi.

Good news.

I can give your mate somecash for those paintings.

Shall we say, um, $50 for each?

Yeah.

She'll be thrilled. - Great.

Cheerio.

See ya.

See ya.

Thank you.

Hey, now, um, that friend that you

wanted me to keep an eye on.

How is Carol?

Well, she's been partying.

She's had the old man over as well.

And the other night a couple ofvisitors, the Nolan brothers.

[sigh]

Not those idiots.

I know.

Oh, and when I wascleaning up the next day,

I found something.

Couldn't spend that downthe dairy though could you?

No.

Some foreign rubbish.

Yeah.

That's what I thought.

There's a bit of a hitch in the plan.

Which is that a certain copperseems to be keeping an eye

on me whenever I'm in Idaho.

How did McCarthy get on to that?

The point is, we know it, so now we

work out how to deal with it.

Sooner we get this job over with, the better.

And how is Talita?

She's coming over; couldn't put her off.

Greetings to you all.

And the house of cool.

Hey, man.

I stole from the rich; the minister's son.

That's the ticket.

I also stole the minister's car.

God may curse me but, I parkedit the back at Bella's place.

I don't see anything goodabout that, little shit.

Settle.

Hey, how is everyone?

Great.

A bit pissed off, now you mention it.

Settle.

Falani?

Talita.

What are you doing here?

Visiting my friends.

You know your mother hasbeen worried sick about you.

In Samoa?

She's not in bloody Samoa.

She's in Papatoetoe.

So you're not homeless.

Not completely.

And your family haven't been deported.

They're New Zealand citizens.

[sigh]

What were you doing in that house in Idaho

in the first place?

I was visiting my mate when the cops came.

Then I got to come hereto beautiful west Oakland

and your wonderful housewith beautiful Mrs. Carol;

all the food and so much space.

Eh?

I have nine brothers and sisters.

It's so crowded.

And my mother, she's bossy.

And my dad, he doesn't want me to steal

cars or learn how to be atop class robber, like you.

You've taught me so much.

All right.

But you'll need to get in touch with them.

Please, just a few more days.

Yeah.

You really had me going.

I did, didn't I.

You lie to me again, you'll be sorry.

Oh, my God, Bilkey.

You got all this for two ugly painting?

You know me, sugar.

I have connections all over town.

You do, don't you.

Why are you looking at me like that?

I have a little problemthat needs to be relocated.

Bilkey has a friend with a flat in Ponsonby.

And he thought you mightlike to have a look at it.

It's very grotty over there.

Are you trying to get rid of me?

I just thought a freshstart might be good for you.

I'd have to leave the cellon and I don't have any money.

Weren't you going to tryto offload your insurance?

The best offer I got was $300 for the lot.

From the Nolan brothers.

You heard about that.

Well, can't trust the Nolan brothers.

But you know who can trust.

And if you want a buyer for those Krugerrands--

What's that you're putting in?

Hello, sweetheart.

Just another tree.

Lovely.

You all set for tonight?

We are indeed.

[MUSIC - QUINCY CONSERVE, "AIRE OF GOOD FEELING"]

[SINGING] Blow on my bugle.

I want my drum.

Come on son.

Dinner and then a game of Scrabble.

[laughter]

[knocking]

Mike.

If I didn't know any better,I'd start to think you

had a bit of a thing for me.

You down this way I see a bit.

You just can't take thingsat face value, can you?

I was visiting the familyof my young friend, Falani.

Seems to be the case.

I take folks as I find them.

Pigs or coconuts, I'm not prejudiced.

I'm off home, if you, uh,feel the need to follow me.

[music playing]

Sausage roll?

Will it be dangerous?

Not at all.

[music playing]

Have we heard from Carol?

Safely installed at a flat in Potsonby

and loving it, apparently.

And the insurance is no longer a problem.

How did you manage that?

Sometimes working in the second-hand

business has its advantages.

You are a marvel, sweetheart.

You're not so bad yourself.

What did you do?

I just had a little word to Talita

and told her that Bilkey was already married,

and likes to pretend he's not.

How did she take that?

Not so well, at first.

But then I pointed out that there's

this other bloke, single,doing well for himself,

and loves island girls.

They certainly go after what they want.

Excuse me.

[chatter]

[laughter]

[music playing]

He'll never get away now.

At least he got a root.

Poor old thing.

Oh, well, at least he's got his mammy.

Hey, bro.

Give me some skin, bro.

Falani.

Good to see see ya.

Mr. Ted.

What is this?

Let's get this party happening.

[MUSIC - MARK WILLIAMS, "YESTERDAY WAS

JUST THE BEGINNING OF MY LIFE"]

What is this crap?

They're playing our song.

Not our song.

It is now.

[laughter]

[SINGING] Don't you worry 'causethere ain't nothing strange.

'Cause yesterday was justthe beginning of my life.

You know I'm always losing,doing everything wrong.

Wait and see they'll be a change from now on.

For yesterday was justthe beginning of my life.
