Alfred Robert McMahon
was more than a good policeman.

He was a good man.

Where did the assault take place?
In the car park.

Cooper laid into him,
chased him down towards the water,

where we assume he gave him
another couple of whacks and left.

So he died on the beach?
He was concealed by the rocks.

No-one saw him
until it was too late.

Him, that one.
There's no rush. Take your time.

Number five.

You sure?
Absolutely.

Ben, I'm sorry. You just
identified our computer technician.

Are you... you know?

Janet, that's fantastic,
how many weeks?

Seven.

You and I both know
that Mr McMahon drowned.

It was the incoming tide that
killed him, not my client.

Cooper downloaded an Oz Tides app
to his phone a year ago.

Accessed it daily,

until deleting it
in the early morning of the 3rd.

So he did know how high the tide
would come in. He just didn't care.

Proceed on the indictment
for murder.

There.
Where?

That's it? It's tiny.

Looks comfy, though.
Very snug.

Oh, you clever thing.
Oh, I don't think I'm doing much.

So Dr Malick said
everything's alright?

Yeah, all good.
No foetal abnormalities.

The pregnancy is viable
at this stage.

How that becomes one of us -
that's clever.

Chris will be so disappointed.

He misses the first picture
and champagne.

Give him one of these
and send him our love.

He'll probably get it framed,
knowing him.

Here, let me. You look after her!

She's now officially
in a delicate condition.

Thanks very much.

You right?
Fine.

What can I do?
Nothing.

Food? Water? Bucket?
Ash!

For the next seven months,
you are first priority.

We're going to be mothers.

I promise not to abuse my power.

(Champagne bottle pops)
Whoa!

Cheers.

Who's first?
Just a sip. Alright.

Tony!

We only have to call the witnesses
nominated for cross-examination.

Yeah, well, Alan should go back
to law school. Bloody ridiculous.

Ulysses - now that's a great book.
Fantastic. Book of the century.

Know what it's about?
Have no idea.

Need a hand?

Thanks, could you
just put those on my desk? Sure.

Morning, Erin. How are we coping?
Alright, I think.

I see you got your photo
in the paper

after Heather-Marie Stone
was declared insane.

Well, it was Rhys
they were snapping.

I was just...
Standing right in front of him?

Yes, but they
just sort of swooped...

Best not to look keen for press.
You were just doing your job.

Yes, not appropriate. Understand.
Good.

What will we do about today?

Today? What's today?
Ben, the Cooper trial.

Oh, shit.
Are you going to try and go?

Are we allowed to go?

I feel like some of us should try
and be there for him. I can't.

Lina's dumped
this hideous fraud case on me

and there's a thousand mentions.

Well, what about you?

Well, I should have time,
but I can't sneak off, can I?

I guess I'll have to ask
the Avian Avenger.

Yes, ask or grovel...
Where's Janet?

Janet, can you give me five?

JANET: (Thanks very much.)

Facebook?
Yes, bloody Facebook.

One of my jurors,
in his infinite wisdom,

posted a poll online
inviting his friends

to help him decide
Hammel's guilt or innocence.

Oh, for God's sake!

Instant discharge, then?
Yes, of course.

Well, surely Justice Cosnett
could have proceeded with 11?

We tried, but then
we discovered another juror,

sourced from the same defective
gene pool, voted in the poll!

So of course His Honour
aborted the trial.

It's been relisted for next week.

So you're...
Double-booked, yes.

Well, can't Cooper be adjourned?

Tried that this morning.
The defence kicked up a stink.

You know, the defendant
shouldn't be made to wait,

with all the resources
of the Crown, etc.

They've given us two hours.
I need you, Janet.

Tony can continue
with your Wallace

'kid-smothering mother' committal
and the Davenport assault.

I've checked with Tracey -
none of it clashes with Hammel.

David...
Sorry, Janet.

No-one else has even looked
at the Cooper matter.

You're the only one
broadly across the issues.

Chain of causation, intervening act.

Two hours?

It's more like an hour 50 now.
OK.

Oh, great. So Janet gets Cooper
all prepped and ready to go,

and I get the front end
of a filicide?

It'll just be examining
psych reports at this stage.

Oh, I can't wait to read all about
why Mrs Wallace topped her kids.

You know, there's
something to be said for

compulsory sterilisation.
Is there?

No, not really. It's a joke!

(Laughs sarcastically)
To work, then? Yes?

Yes, yes. No time for cynical
Australian humour, apparently.

Ah, this case is more
circumstantial than usual.

We'll be relying on the jury

to infer from the evidence
that McMahon...

Met his death as a result
of the assault. Yes.

It's a paradigm case
of conduct causing death.

And the CCTV footage?

Is visually impacting
and our best weapon,

and shows intention
to cause really serious injury.

And the fact that
Cooper waited for him.

How do you deal with dramatic,
last-minute change?

I... Well...

That expression isn't helping,
Richard.

This is just... my face.
Well, fix it.

(Pencil scrubbing)

Worked till three
in the morning on that.

I think you'll find
it's a very strong opening.

Have you emphasised the evidence that
points to Cooper's intention to kill?

Yes, of course.

Ah, Tracey?
Yes, Tony?

Ah, Wallace matter, Davenport
matter - I need those files.

Oh, well, then...

Ah, it's here -
pages six and nine.

Alright, but if the defence apply
for a no case to answer,

we're going to need more case law.

They're gonna argue

that McMahon could've moved
after Cooper assaulted him.

We need
to emphasise the causation more.

Ah, we have Hallet...
Pitts, Royall.

Pitts, really? Royall?

Wasn't the High Court divided

over whether the
chain of causation was broken?

Yes,
but here McMahon ran to the water.

The Court agreed

that an act of self-preservation
in the face of violence

which results in death
does not break the causal link.

Aren't we saying he was chased?
Followed.

The CCTV doesn't support chased.

Oh, God. Wish we could use something
from this century,

or at the very least, this country.

Let's try and make it
relevant for the jury.

Ah, what about McAuliffe?
It was, uh...

New South Wales Court of Criminal
Appeal, I think, early '90s.

Yes, good. Thank you, Richard.

Hang on,
why are you calling Ben first?

What do you mean? Have to call him.

Not first. He'll be
a very sympathetic witness for us.

We don't need him up front.
He's the principal witness

to the dispute behind the assault.

He couldn't even
identify the antagonist.

But if he handles himself well,
he'll bring the jury to our side

right off the bat.
'If'!

Oh.

OK, let me read.
Just... let me read.

Erin?

Trace?

Just thought I'd let you know
that I can't do these two.

They're in Local Court
today and tomorrow,

and I'll be at the Cooper trial.

Oh, yes, of course.
I'll be praying for you, Ben.

Oh, thanks,
but shouldn't be necessary.

I've gone through
everything with Tony,

and I know exactly what he's going
to ask me and what I've got to say.

Ah.

What?

Are you fucking serious?

Hammel got aborted. Tony's
got the retrial straightaway.

And they're giving Janet
two hours to prep for the trial?

Hour and a half.
No, that's ridiculous.

Gotta talk to David.
Need to get this adjourned.

Ben, it's happening.
No, it's fine.

Honestly, there's nothing to worry
about - at least she has some time

and she knows the case.

We've briefed her and I'll be there
and Andy will be in court too.

We're good to go.
We are better than good.

We are going to prosecute
the arse off this case, hmm?

(Breathes deeply)

Just breathe. Breathe it out.

Tony and I have been
working on this for weeks,

and now there's a new judge
and a new Crown.

Yeah, but it's Elvis.
Even Janet will struggle with this.

Just focus on what you have to do.

Everything was planned. There is
so much detail in this case.

If we are going to sell the truth,
she needs to know the detail,

not just the principles.

If you leave something out,
the whole thing's gone. Richard!

You know the detail.
That's why you're there.

This is your time to shine.

You have to feel the strength
that comes from knowing

that you're the keeper of the flame.

(Breathes heavily)

You can feel it, can't you?

Tell me what you feel.
Sick.

OK. Alright, change of subject.

Enough about you. What about me?

Tatum, please.

I was planning to come and watch,
support Ben, all that.

I go to Tracey and she hits me

with a pre-trial conference Ben
was supposed to do, but get this -

the defendant is a non-
English-speaking self-represented.

Right.
How good is that?

Sure.

No defence counsel, Richard.
It's going to be a breeze.

I'll be free by lunch.

And since I'm such a good mood,

now's the perfect time
for me to tell you that...

Listen. Now's the perfect time
for me to tell you

that I'm bestowing upon you
the supreme honour

of being my chief bridesmaid.

No. It's not negotiable.
No, Tatum, forget it...

You should probably start
planning my hen's party now.

And if you get me a penis pinata,
I kill you.

Go get 'em, tiger.

I'm not your bridesmaid!

Tony was calling me first.

I know.

Are you?

Don't you trust me?

I don't have time

to have an emotionally charged
conversation about strategy.

Look, I can make him human for them.
So can I.

Not the way that I can.

We need to give the jury a face.

Show them Alfred was part of
a family, that he meant something.

Now he's gone, Janet.

Can you do it just like that?

Mm-hmm.
Do you know your statement?

Backwards.
Janet?

Times, conversations, Alfred's
attitude, Cooper's attitude?

Everything.

If I start leading you
through evidence,

I don't want a single surprise.

If I ask you a question,
I want the answer

to be exactly what I'm expecting
from your statement.

It will be. I give my witnesses
the exact same speech.

I've been reading that statement
every single night.

Dad grills me on it over breakfast.
It's even on my iPod.

RICHARD:
(Clears throat) Ten minutes.

Come on.

OK, I'll see you there.

OK.

What the hell is that?

Um, I drew it up last night.

It's a chart
of our ideal jury composition.

Out of the jury pool we have, if we
use all of our preemptive challenges,

we should have a 26.5% chance

of getting
a favourable gender balance.

Use the Force.

You right?
Fine. Fine.

Nerves - happens to the best of us.
It's not nerves. (Laughs)

It's alright. Just breathe.

It's OK to be a bit anxious.

The best thing is just to sit
with the feeling.

I know a good relaxation exercise.

Picture a clearing,
and the sound of running water...

Richard.

..and the smell of freshly cut grass.

And the warmth of the sunlight on
your skin - it helps to be naked...

Richard!
Shh, shh. This...

This is Janet's secret garden.

Let's empanel the jury.

A judge once said that using a jury

is asking the ignorant
to use the incomprehensible

to decide the unknowable.

But somehow it works...

..most of the time.

(Short beeps)

(Frenzy of beeps)

Bonjour.

Go away.

What?
I can't talk to you.

What'd I do?

Ben,
I'm sitting on the Cooper trial.

But... what?

It's Rosenberg?

They switched it this morning.
Tony should have been told.

It's not Tony. It's Janet.
Well, what else has changed?

Is Cooper still the defendant?
Well, he fucking better be.

Rosenberg doesn't know about us
though, does he?

Well, he will
if anyone sees us talking.

Well, can you text me
the inside goss?

Don't even think about it. I'm not
going to be your Deep Throat.

At least not in court.

(Ambulance siren in distance)

(Sighs) I just wanted to say,
you know, good luck.

Well, it's not a test match,
but thanks.

So, what happened to breakfast?

Oh, I got called into work early.

(Laughs) You're a witness
at your own grandfather's trial,

and they're loading you up, right?

Listen, if you're on the spot,

just stall until
you collect your thoughts.

A drink of water.
Cool head, clear voice, poker face.

The jury don't think
about points of law.

They just listen to what's said.

Is it bullshit, or not?

Be confident.
Not arrogant.

Facts...
Not memories.

That's it.

You sure Janet knows this case?

Yeah. And you'll be here waiting
when they call you?

See you when they break.

(Baby crying)

Here.

Oh, thanks.

No worries. What's his name?

Marlowe.

He's the devil in nappies,
aren't you?

You going in?
Yeah. Fingers crossed, hey?

It's just, I don't... I don't think
they let kids in court.

Great. Well, no-one told me!

What am I supposed to do now?

Do you mind just watching him for
a sec? I've just got to call Mum.

Yeah, sure.
Thanks.

Hi, little man. Everything's OK.

What have we got?

Scary Janet, she's going to put
the nasty man away.

She is. She's very scary.

A little tardy this morning,
Ms King.

Rosie's not happy.

Come now. Let's play nice.

Julian Matthew Cooper,
the numbers you will now hear called

are those of the jurors
by whom you are to be tried.

If you will challenge them,

you must challenge them
before they are sworn or affirmed.

114.

(Suspenseful music)

343.

Challenge.

772.

That's what we want.

Don't challenge.

Challenge.

We're going to get a jury
full of Coopers, at this rate.

Don't they walk away feeling
like the whole system's biased?

Yes. They're told it's
their right and duty to serve,

but then we come along, give them
the once over and out they go.

The thinking is that
if the verdict's unfavourable,

the defendant's more likely
to accept it

because he has participated.

Doesn't seem fair to anyone.
It isn't.

They should abolish
preemptory challenges altogether.

It's outdated, and bloody expensive.

Mmm, young Jedi,

it looks like we have
a fight on our hands.

Thanks.

Hello, my Arabian princess.

Hello, my Anglo-Celtic
convict warrior.

What, shouldn't you be in there?

No, I just need a minute
to cool down.

You know, we pour weeks of work
into the investigation,

more weeks into making sure

the brief's as full as Tony asked us
to make it,

then everything goes to the dogs

and we get a new Crown
an hour before the trial.

Wonderful.

Oh, we had a court order. It had to
go ahead. What would you have done?

Frontier justice. That's my answer.

Did Cooper do it? Yep, right, bang.
Problem solved. A lot cheaper.

Sounds fair to me.

Hey, that's nice.

Oh yeah, Dad got it for me.
It's from his village.

Hey, did you know

that the IRA had a history of
supporting the Palestinian cause?

Been reading up?
Googling. Does that count?

Oh.
Your people, my people.

Hey, perhaps we've got
more in common than you think.

Refugees from occupied lands
find love in antipodean outpost.

Yeah, even though
I'm a third-generation skip,

don't ask me to ever to get
the, you know... What?

Oh, no, don't worry.

Oh, but my dad might have
different ideas.

Oh, my dad
can't stop talking about you.

I think he wants to marry you.

Well, he did go for the mouth kiss.

Well, it's his inalienable right,

as laid out in the Dad Charter,
clause 811, I think it is.

Right after Dad Jokes.

Oh, I don't mind.
He's kinda cute.

That's just wrong.

What! I'm just keeping it
in the family. Oh, stop talking!

Good luck.

What you're being asked
to determine,

after hearing the evidence,

is whether the prosecution has
proved, beyond reasonable doubt,

that the accused, Julian Cooper,
murdered Alfred McMahon.

That the death of the deceased
occurred that night

is not in dispute.

That the ultimate cause of death
was by drowning

is also not in dispute.

What is in contention, however,

is the role that the accused
played in relation to the death.

We will ask you to find

that the casual link between the
accused's assault

and Mr McMahon's death

was not broken by the incoming tide.

And, therefore,

the accused acted with the intention
to cause Mr McMahon's death.

Furthermore, the accused...
Your Honour, I beg your pardon.

We respectfully request

that all the witnesses
remain out of the courtroom.

Your Honour,
my learned friend is mistaken.

Detective Senior Sergeant Campbell
is the Crown informant. And witness.

Customary practice the informant
stays in the court, Your Honour.

I am aware of that, thank you.
Yes, Your Honour.

Your Honour, there is no need

for Detective Campbell
to remain in the court

until he is required
to give evidence.

Detective Campbell has been crucial
to assembling the Crown's case,

and he...

He, um...
Are you OK?

Sorry.

His immediate presence is paramount
to ensuring an expeditious trial.

Give me a moment.

(Novelty musical ringtone)

I will not tolerate
phones in my court.

(Ringtone continues)

It's not my ringtone.

In your own good time,
Mr Stirling.

It... It's... It's not mine.

Madame Crown, if you can't control
your solicitor, I will.

(Phone continues to ring)

(Ringing stops)
I rule against the Crown.

Detective Campbell,
you are a witness

and will take leave of the court
until you give your evidence.

Your Honour!
Now, Detective!

Continue.

Julian Cooper
is a hard-working husband

and the father of a small child.

He had been enjoying
an afternoon at the beach

when he discovered
he'd been parked in.

But the owner, Mr McMahon,

proves to be
a cantankerous old bastard,

who makes Julian wait and wait
over two hours.

The accused is a man
of brute strength,

who is skilled in martial arts.

That he pays no attention
to disabled parking signs

is one small indication
of his selfishness.

The evidence will show that
the accused waited for the deceased

to emerge from the club, alone,
and then viciously attacked him.

So yes, there is an assault, with
high provocation, in the car park.

We know that, Mr McMahon must have
succumbed to unconsciousness

very soon after we saw him
staggering to the beach.

And we also know that the accused
made no attempt

to help him or pull Mr McMahon
to safety.

They argued
for another minute or so,

and then Mr McMahon
gives him his keys

and Julian moves the Camry

and then drives off to a party
in his own car.

We know that minutes
after the attack,

the accused deleted
an application from his phone

which would only have been there
in the first place

if the nature and timing of tides

was a subject
he understood and studied.

As far as Julian knows,

the old man is still on
the beach...

..recovering.

Unfortunately, to get to the party,

he tries to activate the satnav
feature on his smartphone.

But because he's driving and
the phone is on his lap,

he succeeds in accidentally deleting
his tidal app first.

The act of deleting this application

is therefore designed to hide
his knowledge of the subject.

Why?

Because Julian Cooper
intended to kill Mr McMahon,

and he thought he was smart enough
to get away with it.

Julian Cooper's
only intention that night

was to blow off some steam
and get his car back on the road.

The only conclusion
you'll be able to draw

after examining all of the evidence

is that Julian Cooper
is guilty of murder.

That he is not...

..guilty of murder.

G'day, Crea, mate. When are you up?

Not till this arvo,
after the fuckin' grandson.

Him?

Is that you, is it?

Fuckin' tool.

Ohh, whoa.

Think that's his tough look, bro.

You wanna start, cockhead?

You gonna take a swing,
like your pissant granddad?

Break it up, you two! Break it up!

Stop! Get off him! Stop!
Get off him, Ben! Get off him! Ben!

You're dead, mate!
Get a grip.

You wait, I'll smash you!

I know where you live, mate.
Go on, bugger off.

What the hell was that about, hmm?

Just cockhead mates.

Oh, for God's sake.

So, how did it go?
Huh?

I want to know how we're going
in there.

Janet opened strongly,
but your mate, Richard, is a muppet.

Better not bruise.

REPORTER 1: That could mean
postcard-pretty one moment,

dust the next.

Geoff Sims, ABC News, near Orange.

REPORTER 2: The wetlands...

(Dogs yapping)

Oh, fuck!
Great minds?

You scared the shit out of me!
I thought we couldn't talk.

I'm bending the rules.

Come on, come in.
I was going to leave this.

I just wanted
to make sure you were OK.

We all heard about the fight.

Just for a minute.

I promise,
me and the wine won't stay long.

Well, the wine can stay. It's
just you that has to go, right?

Well, I can stay, I just...

..can't talk.

Right. Well...

Anyway...

..talking's so, so '90s.

So, so '90s.

So...

Alright, come on.
Mm-hmm.

What's Rosenberg saying?

What are the jury thinking?
(Dog yaps)

Come on, you've got to tell
me something. Uh-uh.

Come on.
MAN: Ben?

(Knock at door)

There's someone outside.

Ben?
(Door knocks)

Shit, that's Dad! Fuck!

What are you doing?
Trying to make it go down.

Do you want some help?

Oh, no, I think you've done enough.

Shh!

Hey.
Thought you might like a nightcap.

Oh sorry, I was um, sleeping.

Big day tomorrow.

Right. OK.

Well, I'll let you...
get back to your sleeping.

Thanks. Night.
Night.

Where were we?

We were playing solicitor and
judge's associate have sexy time.

Ooh, I love role-play.
Why don't you cross-examine me?

Oh, I thought I was doing that.

(Suspenseful music)

Dad? Fuck! What...
Get up.

I'm changing the locks.
Get up now!

Why?
Why what?!

Why are you deliberately
trying to sabotage this trial?

Can this wait? Maybe I...

It's not enough that you brawl
where everyone can see you,

but of all girls, you're
sleeping with Rosenberg's associate!

Look, there's no pillow talk
going on, OK?

Oh, you're going to tell that to
David when you're held in contempt,

she's stood down and Rosenberg
moves for a mistrial, you idiot?

Don't ask me to clean up for you
this time, Ben.

There's no strings to pull
in the Supreme Court.

You're on your own.

Your grandfather
deserves better than this.

You should think about someone
other than yourself for once, hmm?

Mr McMahon, you have told
the court that you are a lawyer

at the Department of Public
Prosecutions. Yes.

And over the course
of your employment,

you have prepared approximately 50
prosecutions of criminal offenders?

Yes.

Do you consider yourself
to be a good solicitor?

Yes, I guess.

And do you agree that part of
being a good solicitor

requires good memory retention?

Yes, absolutely.
Do you have a good memory?

I have an excellent memory.

Could you identify Mr Cooper
in the police line-up?

I remind you, Mr McMahon,
that you are under oath.

No, I couldn't.

So you're asking the court to
believe your version of events,

even though you couldn't
identify the accused?

I'm telling the court
what happened that evening.

I would suggest to you

that because of the personal
relationship you had with the victim

you have embellished
the events of that evening

and your evidence-in-chief
reflects this biased view.

Your Honour, I object.

The question is
unduly belittling to the witness.

Apologies. I'll withdraw it.

When you were unable to identify
the accused in the police line-up,

did you abstain
from nominating anyone,

or did you nominate the wrong man?

No, I picked the wrong man.

Oh.

They were very similar.

Nonetheless, at the time,

you were certain that man
was Julian Cooper.

Didn't the police advise you
only to identify someone

if you were certain?

Yes, they said, 'Are you sure?'

And you were?
At the time, yes.

But as it turns out,
you were mistaken.

Yes.

So, it's possible to state
you are certain about something

when in fact you're mistaken?

Well, it's possible, yes.

Some of the crimes
you have prosecuted

have been of an
extremely violent nature,

correct?

Yes.

It's a reasonable inference, then,

to assume that you are familiar
with the type of person

who might commit such crimes.

Probably.
Gender. Age.

The way they hold themselves and
interact in social situations, yes?

I guess.

But you didn't think Mr Cooper was
capable of violence, did you?

He threatened my grandfather.

I was extremely worried
for his safety.

Really? Well, you can't have been
too worried.

Surely with your
knowledge and experience,

if you thought that Mr Cooper
posed a violent threat

to your grandfather,

you wouldn't have left him alone
at the surf club.

The truth is, this confrontation was
not really that threatening, was it?

It was very threatening.

And you are certain of that?

It was your grandfather
and not Mr Cooper

who behaved in a provocative manner
that night, wasn't it?

No, you're wrong.

When Mr Cooper came inside and
politely asked him to move his car,

he was belligerent, insulting
and refused to do so.

Alfred McMahon
was not the sweet old man

you'd have us believe him be.

In fact, he was a hostile
ex-police officer

who enjoyed administering
his own brand of justice.

That bruise, Mr McMahon.

Does everyone in your family use
their fists to resolve conflict?

Objection!
JUDGE ROSENBERG: Mr Rice.

Withdrawn. Withdrawn.

I think Rice has just shut the gate.

No further questions, Your Honour.

The witness may step down.

JANET: You've just viewed Prosecution
Exhibit H,

the CCTV footage obtained
by the Crown informant,

Detective Senior Sergeant Campbell.

Now, Detective, can you please
indicate to the court

exactly where Mr McMahon's body
was discovered?

G3.

And at what time
did you arrive at the beach?

3.20am.

Madame Crown, it
appears three members of the jury

are not in possession of Exhibit C,
copies of the map.

I beg your pardon, Your Honour.

We will secure more copies
immediately.

If the jury members with a map
are happy to share, we will push on.

(Sighs)

(Clears throat)

(Alert-beeping, machine stops)

No. No, no, no.

Come on, please.

Shit. Shit, shit!

Come on. Come on! Shit!

Well?

(Sighs) Mr Vecchio,

I understand that Mr Bonucci
thinks our judicial system

is not a patch on the Florentine one,
but the fact remains,

he is going to be tried
unless we can find a compromise.

Please remind him
that we have CCTV footage

of him hitting six people
in succession with a chair.

It's crazy for him to plead
not guilty to the charge of affray.

You could go to prison for ten years.

Signor Bonucci.

Puo' finire
in carcere anche per dieci anni.

Hanno I'll filmato della telecamera.

Me ne frego del filmato!

Chiunque con un po' di buon senso.

Vendrebbe che sono stato
aggredito io quella sera,

no vice verca.

Se mi causa,
andrai all'inferno, brutta oca.

He's coming round.

Ne vuoi un po' di questo?
Ti faccio vedere io cosa.

Nascondo qui, cara mia.

Hai tutta
l'aria di averne bisogno.

He, um... he loves your outfit.
Is it wool?

Non conosci la legge. Prima fatti n
cervello e poi chiamati avocatessa.

Ah, he'd... he'd like
to learn from you, about justice.

It's a big deal, you know?

Playing a part in potentially
sending someone to jail.

Some of them come back
and visit you in your dreams. Ready?

Crea.

When he stepped into the box,
he was hunched over, like this.

He turned his body away
from the court, his eyes were down,

concealing his expression.
Yes?

He only looked up once and when he
did, he locked eyes with one person,

Cooper.

They're in collusion?

He has a victim's gait.

Ted Bundy knew his victim by
the tilt of her head as she walked.

I think Crea knows something.

He wants to tell.

He can't live with himself.

How do you know?
Call me a kindred spirit.

JANET: Mr Crea, we've established
that you're a surfer.

What's the most important thing
you need to surf?

A surfboard.
And?

Waves.

What causes waves?

The moon.
And?

Tides. Are we back at preschool?

In your opinion, which beach,
generally,

has the best conditions for surfing?

Cronulla.

And you've already told us

that you and Mr Cooper
used to surf there every day.

Yeah, for a dawnie.

Every day.

Pretty much,
depending on the swell.

Why then, Mr Crea, did you and
Mr Cooper vary your routine

the morning
of Alfred McMahon's death,

and surf at Bronte?

Was it because you knew
an elderly man

was lying drowned in three inches
of water at Cronulla? No.

It's because the party I'd stayed
at the night before was in Bronte,

and Coops came and met me
in the morning with our boards.

Mr Cooper had an Oz Tides
tidal application on his phone.

Did you have the same app
on your phone?

Not when he did, no.

Well, the evidence has shown that
Mr Cooper deleted this tidal app

in the early hours of the morning
of Alfred McMahon's death.

Why do you think he did that?

Because...

..because...

I don't... I don't know.
Mr Crea, remember that in this court

you have made an affirmation
to tell the truth.

Was it because he was worried
it would show he knew

the tide would reach Mr McMahon?

Ask him. I...

Precisely two minutes

after the accused deleted Oz Tides
from his phone,

you installed it on your phone, true?
Yep.

You were with the accused
at the time?

No.

Did the accused ask you
to install the application? Nuh.

So it was just a
coincidence, then?

Ah, yep... Yep.

You surfed with the accused
four or five mornings a week,

and for over a year
he'd had a tidal app on his phone.

Two minutes after he accidentally
deletes it from his phone,

you download the same app to your
phone, while you're at a party,

and you're asking us to believe
that this is just a coincidence?

Yep.

I put it to you
it was no coincidence.

You knew Julian Cooper
had deleted that tidal app,

and as there's no record of any call
between your two phones at the time,

I put it to you you were with him.

No, I...
You had witnessed the assault,

then Julian picked you up in
his car - you weren't at the party.

You were driving to the party.

And while Julian drove,
you deleted the app from his phone

and downloaded the app to yours.

Were you down on the beach?
No. I... didn't know...

Didn't know what?
That Mr McMahon was unconscious?

No.

What other possible
reason would Julian have

to ask you to delete that application
from his phone?

You could have told someone.

And you didn't. Why not?

I don't know.

There was time.

You don't know that for sure.

The evidence suggests
that there was time

between Mr Cooper's
confession to your...

Objection!

..time between Mr Cooper's
confession to you

about the assault on the beach
and Mr McMahon's death

where he might have been saved.

The accused took his life.

You took away his chance to live.

From the womb to the grave,

we each of us embark
upon this journey called life

with the good faith that we will die
as we are born -

naturally and in good time.

And when this faith is broken by the
violent and reckless act of another,

humanity breaks a little too.

There is a thread of culpability

that leads directly from
Julian Cooper's fist

to Alfred McMahon's body.

Do not for a second forget this
when you're considering your verdict.

I feel suitably guilty
going home before you.

Janet?

Oh! Oh, sorry.
I'm away with the pixies.

Go home.
You're no good to me exhausted.

Hi.
Hi.

Is this yours?

Where did you find that?

When you gave me all
your files the other morning.

I must have got them mixed up.
Did anyone else see this?

No, no. No, no, no, no.

I've just been waiting
to get you alone.

Thanks, Erin.
Ash'd kill me if I lost this.

He must be so thrilled.

Yeah, she is.

Oh. Right. Sorry.

Didn't know.

That's OK.

Night.
Night.

Uneasy lies the head
that wears the Crown.

Don't you dare wake her.
Ash'll kill you.

He's right.

Look at her.
A herd of stampeding elephants

wouldn't wake her up
at the moment.

I can't wait till this
trial is over.

She said she doesn't know
who her greater adversary is -

the defence or her own body.
Can't she take some sick leave?

Her? A sick day? 'Computer says no.'

Well, we may just have to insist.

She's got more than herself
to think about now.

And if she doesn't slow down,
this one here'll tense up,

and that's not pretty.

Says Mr Serene over here.

I don't stress.
But you do get excitable.

That's just an occupational hazard.

Of teaching at a university?

It'd kill me if it didn't create
some excitement.

We're going to be good parents,
aren't we?

Well, the three of us will be.

But there's no rule books.

Who knows about the lazy one.

She'll be great.

ERIN: Some juries must spin it out
deliberately.

They know
they're the centre of attention.

Everyone's waiting for them.

Just try to get your mind off it.

Start another case.
Something interesting.

Ha - what's Crown versus
Ferguson, Kline and Twomey?

Gang rape.

Or we could talk about your
fascinating fraud case I'm now doing.

(Groans) You never replied
to my text about that, by the way.

What text? If you want a distraction
we could play a game of 500. Oh!

I've got it. We could work
on my wedding invitation list.

(All groan)
No.

Alright, be like that.
That's one table I can get rid of.

Look at her.

I know. Calm as.

Looks can be deceiving.

(Phone rings)
Richard Stirling.

Thanks.

Janet.

We have a verdict.
Will the accused please rise?

(Slow, tense music)

Members of the jury, how say you?

Is the accused, Julian Cooper,
guilty or not guilty of murder?

Guilty.

WOMAN: What?
WOMAN 2: Are you joking?

Fuckin' no! No.

This is bullshit!

What about my kid?

What... what about my baby?
JANET: Well done.

Huh? What am I supposed to do? Just
because... just because he was a cop

and his grandson's a fuckin' lawyer!

Bec, it's alright, OK?

Bec, it's OK. I'm gonna be OK.

Who cares about people like us?
It's just not fair. JUDGE: Order.

What am I supposed to do?

You just take care of yourselves!
It's rigged. Hug Marlowe for me.

People like us can never win.

Just ignore her.
That was justice, Ben.

MAN: Bloody lawyers!

Oh, thank you.

Hey, good work. Well done.
What a day.

You are a legend. Thank you.
You owe me five bucks. Excuse me.

Hey. How are you feeling?

I don't know.
Not how I thought I would.

Are you going to go
to the sentencing?

If I was you, I'd advise me not to.

So, how long, you reckon?

15, 18 years.

Well, I'll see you tomorrow.

Nice work in there, Mr Bundy.
That will not stick.

It might, if you leave your phone on
in court again.

Thought you might like a lift.

Well, what are these for?

Well, winning is hard enough,

but winning when you feel like
throwing up every hour,

that's something else.

Roll on, second trimester.

How would you like to celebrate?

Take me to a bar and line up
a sparkling apple juice.

(Funky house music)

Hey, thanks for the ringtone.
I said sorry.

No, you didn't.

Well, you shouldn't
have had it on in court.

What, so it's my fault?
Generally, yes.

LINA: Hey, where's those drinks?

Thank you.
A girl could die of thirst in here!

Oh what, is this a mocktail?
Fix it, please.

Hmm?
Yeah.

What?
Come on, let's dance.

What? It's my lava lamp!

Tada!

Let's dance, you little knob jockey!

(Improvises)

(Music gets softer)

(Incredulous laughter)

(Playing becomes disjointed)

That's amazing!

Awesome.

I think, if I remember,
it was my last year at law school.

We'd just won the rugby grand final,

so I was in pretty high spirits,
I guess.

Anyway, we changed and were going
to a function at the Law Society.

We were completely pissed.

'Love, Tatum and Conrad.'

I walked in, I saw
who I thought was my mate, John,

and I tackled him to the floor.

You tackled a judge?

Yes, I did. And he went
down to the floor pretty hard too.

Then rucked him out
like a good flanker would.

(Both laugh)

What'd he say?

Not much.
He was pretty winded, actually.

To Alfred.

Three years - sounds like a long time
to be undercover.

Stressful line of work.
Do they give you counselling?

You've known me for one day. You're
already sending me off to the psych.

Is he anxious?
Very.

They should teach you at law school

how to deal
with covert drug operatives.

Not your job to care about him,
Lina -

it's your job to care
about the case!

If my witness can't function in court
without sticking a needle in his arm,

where's my case?
Police do all the work!

And then it gets to you guys.
What do you do?
