He thought we were nothing!
Dirt on his feet!

That bastard raped, abused,
degraded those women,

then smears them as liars in court!

Direct indictment will get Quinn
in the dock. Once he's there -

It's gonna look like ego on my part!

I'm leaving Parliament and will not
contest the next election.

Six months ago,
I was diagnosed with lymphoma.

My specialists have given me
less than a year to live.

His house collapsed -
that's why Richard's here.

Just seems a bit convenient.
No, not at all!

I'm back to having no place to live,
I have hardly any clothes -

they're burning in some asbestos
incinerator somewhere.

Not convenient, no!

The Abe Jackson matter?

Yeah. He had to call his wife

and tell her their son was dead
because he'd left him in the car.

That...moment
when you know what's happened

and say, 'Please, God,
just let him still be sleeping.'

His negligence led directly
to a loss of life,

so we have all the elements
for manslaughter -

no dilemma about that.

Yet...is a conviction
really in the public interest?

He's already given himself
a life sentence.

I will see your last week's flasher
in a Santa suit

and raise you Linda Blair
revisited.

Head spinning, projectile vomiting,
Captain Howdy!

You've got an exorcism?
Yeah.

A genuine, 'I cast you out, unclean
spirit' exorcism? Mm-hmm.

Complete with juicy photos.

Oh, my God. That's... That's awful.

That poor girl. Piper Burgess -
third year med student.

Not your typical fundamentalist
fruit-cake -

hardcore atheist family. Where's
the religious connection?

Her boyfriend's a happy-clapper.

His spiritual Svengali,
Alistair Hoy,

put her non-belief down to
the devil. She believed him?

Yeah, she went along with it.

According to her statement,
she thought, 'What the hell?'

Poor choice of words,
in the circumstances.

It's so depressingly sexist
and archaic.

No, it's just 'case of the week'.

It's about the subjugation of women
by organised religion.

Have you wondered why it's men who
exorcise women and not vice-versa?

Are you channelling Germaine Greer?

Again. The Female Eunuch
was a seminal work, Ben.

Germaine, seminal -
hold that thought.

You look exceptionally gorgeous
today. Going out?

Who's the lucky guy?
What do you want, Ben?

Can you cover something for me
tomorrow? No.

Come on, I can't make it. It's just
a plea hearing, the rest is done.

Reschedule. No facts are in dispute,
full confession.

Got a date with a hottie
that clashes? I'm offended!

Poor baby (!)
You can have my eternal gratitude.

And a shit-hot bottle of red.

How shit-hot?
I'll leave the file on your desk.

How are you gonna get it
past Tracey?

I will sort Tracey.

Now, I'm gonna go interview
crazy exorcism girl.

So, it was Spencer
who took you to see Alistair?

Right after we started dating,
he took me to a sermon.

Did that make your relationship
difficult - you not being religious?

Understatement. That's why we went
to Alistair for spiritual guidance.

Were you there when...Spencer
and Alistair had this 'talk'?

Yeah. I mean, we were all
really open about it.

I told Alistair it wasn't just
HIS religion I had a problem with,

I've got issues with every one.
How did that go down?

That's when he said
there was something wrong with me.

Apparently my stubbornness
was inviting in the evil spirit

and it needed to be exorcised.

And you believed him?
Of course not.

It didn't matter - Spencer did.

He believed every word
Alistair said.

So I thought,
'What the hell? Why not?'

Alistair said
people always got the wrong idea

when they heard the word 'exorcism'.

It'd be just him and me,
and a day of praying.

The first night,
he tied me to a chair

and forced all this water down
throat from a big cordial bottle.

He didn't care that I was gagging.

I could hardly breathe.

He was yelling all this stuff,

like, 'This is the blood of Jesus!
Get that devil out of her!'

And no-one else was there,
just you and Alistair?

No-one.

I told him he was a maniac.

I said he had to let me go,
or I'd call the police.

I was swearing, I was trying to hit
him, but the ropes were so tight.

He just said it proved
that I was possessed.

He is a dangerous fucking sadist.

You have to make sure
he goes to jail!

In Hebrews chapter ten, verse nine,
the Bible says,

'Our God, He taketh away the first,
that He may establish the second.'

What does that mean for everyday
people, like you and I?

How can we understand
what God's getting at?

How can we see for ourselves
the bigger picture?

We want to have faith
in the benevolent way God works,

but that's not always easy.

But when we're feeling loss
and loneliness and regret,

if we think about John,
chapter 14, verse 16 -

'Jesus says He had to leave us and
He spoke about the Holy Spirit

and He said, "I will pray the Father

and He shall give you
another comforter

that may abide with you forever."'

'He shall give you another comforter
that He may abide with you forever.'

Is he your exorcist?
That's the demon slayer, yeah.

He's quite good-looking.

The Abe Jackson manslaughter,
that's tomorrow, right? Uh-huh.

I know it wasn't your preferred
course of action,

but David does have an argument
for general deterrence.

Only a nut-case
agrees to an exorcism.

Piper's got a brain - she's on
a scholarship, studying medicine.

No-one with a brain
believes in possession.

The entire Catholic church believes
in possession. I rest my case.

In the New Testament, the casting
out of devils and unclean spirits

is mentioned dozens of times
in the first three gospels -

Matthew, Mark, and Luke -
and four times in Acts.

You've set her off now. Happy?
It's not just the Catholics.

The Anglicans, Uniting Church,
Christian Revival Crusade -

they all perform exorcisms. If you
don't believe in spirituality,

you won't believe in possession.
Piper wasn't possessed.

Says you. Even if she was,
isn't the issue here consent?

Which she gave.
To a day of praying,

not to serious injury
and false imprisonment.

You got anything in writing?
Next time I'll ask

if he gave her
the standard exorcism contract (!)

People always protest
during an exorcism.

The devil doesn't like to lose.

You can't consent
to something illegal.

You can't say, 'I give you
permission to murder me,'

so the murderer walks free.
Murder is still murder.

False imprisonment
is still false imprisonment.

Consent only eviscerates assault
to a degree. We've got a case!

Not for serious injury. Rope burns
on her ankles and wrists.

She's not disfigured,
she hasn't lost a limb -

you haven't got a reasonable chance
of conviction.

She had a rough couple of days,
some cuts and bruises.

My money's on the jury saying
she got what she asked for

when she signed up for an exorcism.

So, Tatum knows your blind date?
Conrad knows him -

they work-out at the gym.

At least he'll have a good body.
Why did you say yes?

The only people I ever meet
are barristers and solicitors.

It's incestuous.
I need to try a different pool!

Someone who's got nothing to do with
law. Journalism's not law.

Jimmy? Jimmy's a court reporter.
Same pool.

Plus, he's compulsively annoying.
Mm-hmm.

I like this guy being a carpenter.
At least it's creative.

Remember that case with the
carpenter who murdered three people

and stuffed them into rubbish bins?
I was trying not to, but thanks.

You should come.
To a law lecture?

It's criminal law and procedures.
It'll be fun.

Our ideas of fun...

Guest speaker Judge Walker?
You are such a suck!

You have assault.

That's a copy of the police file.
It's not much.

Who'd be low enough
to have a go at a Mr Creamy?

It was Mr Creamy who did the damage.
Put two men in hospital.

We used to bolt down the street
when we heard that tune.

I used to get excited
when Mr Creamy would come.

Disturbing mental image!

Weren't you gonna wear
the red dress?

I'm having second thoughts
about going.

You look too good to go home.

(Sighs)

Are you sure you won't come with us
for dinner?

Gotta be better
than a boring lecture.

Yeah, I'll grab something
on the way. Yeah, see you, mate.

Don't want to be late!

I thought you said
you were a carpenter.

That's my job,
but cage fighting is what I do.

Cage fighting?
I mean, that's not literally in -

A cage, yeah. It's free-form
fighting, so there's no rules. None?

Well, two - no biting,
and no hits to the ground.

You don't look like someone
who's into fighting.

But you never know.
I see it all the time at work.

Some guy who looks ordinary

and he's a rapist, or a paedohpile,
serial killer.

Did you know that 80% of offenders

in all major crime categories
are male?

Do you ever feel ashamed
to have a penis?

Another drink?
Mm.

Go away, Jimmy. I'm on a date.
Haven't seen him around the courts.

He's a cage fighter, a carpenter.
I'm trying a different pool.

What's wrong with the pool
you're in? Why are you here?

How great is it
you guys got Maxie Massey?

Couldn't have got a nastier judge
if you tried! Quinn's fucked!

Did I mention I'm on a date?

You take care in the new pool.

Don't show your bikini
on the first date.

Of course he was the culprit!

That accountant of yours was
skimming money all over the place.

For equipment
they were never gonna use

and R and D that was never gonna happen.

No, no.
He was terrified they'd find out

he tried to set the factory on fire.

Archie Mangan - he did the home
invasions with the samurai sword.

Come on, if those gas cylinders
had exploded,

it would have demolished
the whole place.

Yeah, we're not Spanish.
Does it matter?

You want me to think of Carlos
Romero when I look at our child?

Should I know a Carlos Romero?
He bludgeoned his family in Glebe.

This was just last year! Your client
intended to set the factory on fire.

It's irrelevant whether or not
he succeeded.

For a...boy?
Or a girl.

Works for both.
It doesn't work for me.

Janet King. Come through.

Well, try four years
for the attempted arson alone,

then start adding six months

for each of the 38 counts
of obtaining property by deception,

then we'll talk a settlement.
We don't allow mobile phones.

I've got to go.

This better happen fast, I'm about
to pee all over the place!

Do you want to find out the gender?

Yes.
No.

Let's go to our room.

No, no, no.
I miss doing it on the fluffy rug.

What if Richard comes home?
He's at some nerdy lecture,

sucking up to Judge Walker.
Actually, no, he's not.

Aw, shit!
Apologies.

You said you wouldn't be home
for hours. I'm sorry!

Hey! What happened?

I got knocked off my bike
and sprained my wrist.

I'm sorry to interrupt.
No worries - you're injured.

But you need your privacy
and I'm always - Shut up.

We want you to be here. Five minutes
ago, maybe we didn't...

I think it's time I got my own
place. You just need your own room.

Have Con's!

My gym room?
That's OK, isn't it?

Yeah, or you could give him
your clothes room.

Where would I put my clothes?
Hey... Please.

No, it's done. Con's gym is yours,
we're all happy.

Sorry, man.

It's a new regimen -
100 reps and I'm done.

They're all straight.

Judge Massey - how's that
for starting on the right foot

with the Quinn trial?
Massey is good for us.

I wish I could say the same
for our trial date.

Six months is far too long.
If Quinn really does have lymphoma -

David's convinced
it's a sympathy trip.

..we need to act on this today.

I want you to get this listed
for special mention.

Ask the judge for an urgent hearing.

We'll need Quinn's medical records.

To jump the queue,
we have to prove he's terminal.

The sooner we get them... You don't
expect them to hand them over

because we asked, do you?
He does have privacy rights.

Then we subpoena them.

I don't care if he's dying or not,
I'm finishing this.

What happened to your arm?

Wrist.

Bike accident.

Shit! Should you be here?
You look awful.

Thanks.

Why don't you take a sick day,
go home? I'm avoiding the place.

I was sleeping on the couch,

but Tatum misses having sex
on the fluffy rug. That was awkward.

I'm getting my own room,
but Conrad wants to row at 5:00am

and Tatum's got more clothes
than any other girl on the planet.

Why don't you just leave?
And go where? I've got no house.

Besides, she won't let me.

I mean this in the nicest possible
way, but...your life is - Tragic?

Hey. Sorry about this morning.

Conrad doesn't normally work out at
5:00am - it's this new regimen.

Your Mr Creamy...fans
are waiting at reception.

Worth it, though.
His abs will look amazing.

Tatum, this isn't gonna work out.
Yes, it will.

How long is the new regimen?

(Sighs) Very well.
In the spirit of compromise,

I will grant you a sub-lease
over a portion of my clothes room.

If you so much as touch my shoes...
Uh-uh.

So, Toby, Angus, what made you want
to break into a Mr Creamy van?

'Cause of Mr Creamy.

(Both laugh)

You just thought it would be funny?
Yeah.

We were in line at Centrelink...

Everything takes so long
in that place. Fuck yeah.

Angus says, 'How about later
we break into a Mr Creamy van?'

It was so cool!
So cool!

Fucking cool! Angus, you had
the idea to break into the van,

mostly just because
it was a Mr Creamy?

A-A-Are we gonna make him angry
if we take him to court?

We're taking Creamy to court.
The dude's fucked in the head.

What were you intending to do
once you got in the van?

Have an ice cream.
Have an ice cream!

According to the police, you threw
a dozen or so ceramic garden gnomes

through the van window.
You should have seen it -

there were gnomes flying everywhere.
Flying gnomes!

And that's when Mr Brumfield came
rushing out, waving a cricket bat?

The dude seriously freaked out.
It was freaky.

Like, it was dark,
but we could still see him.

He was wearing short pyjamas,
like a four-year-old.

He was running, screaming
and swinging this bat.

You had already damaged his vehicle,
and his gnomes!

And you intended
to steal his ice cream.

Yeah, a fucking ice cream,
so the guy runs at us with a bat?

I got a concussion and 15 stitches.
Angus got 12!

Yeah, and two broken ribs.
The guy's mental.

Is he gonna know who we are?

Are they gonna read our address
and stuff in court?

Police have charged Mr Brumfield
with two counts of assault,

but he's got no priors and you did
instigate the incident.

So, how this goes in court
depends on...

We got creamed by Mr Creamy.

(Both laugh)

Alistair's not a criminal.

He's a servant of God.

Whatever he did, it was God's work.

Believe me, I'd love to hold
the Big Man accountable,

but he's not taking my calls.
None of this was a joke.

I'm not laughing.
Assault, false imprisonment...

There was something seriously wrong
with Piper.

She wasn't normal.
And this?

This was supposed to help?

I'd have done anything for her.

If there'd been other explanation -
For what?

I don't know what you call it.

Piper had these episodes.

She didn't tell you about them?
No.

They worried her, too.

Piper and I had a erm...

we had a meeting with Alistair
last semester, before our exams.

We were trying to figure out a way

where we could get married
without our parents going nuts.

Piper was telling Alistair
how pissed off she was

with everyone
making it so complicated.

And it happened again. Her words
collapsed, her voice really high.

She was making sounds that were
like words, but they weren't words,

they were just random sounds.

Piper's looking at me like I should
understand what she's saying.

I was watching her body start
shivering, like she was freezing.

Then her feet totally gave way
and she collapsed.

Aren't you a medical student?

You didn't think to take her
to a doctor? I took her to two!

Her GP and a neurologist. Alistair
sent her to a psychiatrist.

We did a million tests,
everything you can think of.

They all came back normal.

Medically, there was nothing wrong
with Piper.

That's when Alistair suggested
an exorcism?

He was trying to help.
He's the only one trying to help.

No-one else got it.

But giving Alistair the OK
to torture your girlfriend...

I wasn't gonna lose her
to the devil.

Well, that went well.

He didn't take me home and knock me
over the head with a hammer,

so that's a plus. He didn't offer
to show you his toolbox?

No, he did not.
Pity.

I heard carpenters take great pride
in their tools.

Jesse's great, and cute. I'm just
no good at dating - I'm a bad date.

Maybe occasional random sex
is my calling.

Those are two of the most useless
witnesses ever.

I couldn't get anything intelligible
out of them.

They just laughed. Everything's
funny when you're stoned.

Oh, come on, Richard.
Erin.

You have someone at reception.

I'm sure we all have things to do.

Jesse! What are you doing here?
Oh, you know...

Serial killer?

Thank you.

What time do you have lunch?
Oh, we don't, really.

When do you eat?
At our desks, on the way to court.

I could make time for a coffee.
I'm not THAT busy.

Well, I'm seriously busy,

but...we live in a constant state
of seriously busy.

Coffee's allowed.
I'll just get my bag. OK.

Nice!

Ben!

Whoever bought you those
spent some money on them.

You said a plea hearing.
Yeah.

You didn't say a dead baby. This is
the Abe Jackson manslaughter.

Do it with your eyes closed.
I don't want to do it.

I don't want to, either.
You don't want to do anything!

You palmed your mention off to Lina,
this to me.

Is your ego too sore David wants to
prosecute this when you said not to?

I don't agree with prosecuting
Abe Jackson.

I didn't agree with prosecuting
Mervich. I still had to, for months.

I fucking hate this job sometimes.

David's making out this case
is about deterrence.

That is just bullshit.

He's just sick of all bad press,

he'll do anything
to make us look good.

You're worried
you're gonna cry in court.

You are!

Aren't you?

Will you do it?

You're a legend. Thank you.

When you said 'coffee', I kinda
thought you meant sit-down.

Sorry. Ben just dumped this on me.

Maybe we can hang out tonight.
Sure!

I've got a fight,
you could come and watch. OK.

I've never been
to a real, live cage fight.

What happens now,
when you go into court?

It's a plea hearing.

This guy accidently left his baby
in a car all day and the baby fried.

We've got to recommend a sentence
to the judge,

then the defence gets to come up
with a bunch of psych reports

on his terrible childhood
or whatever and...

What?
Just the way you said that.

Said what?
'The baby got fried.'

Sounded kinda callous.
Oh.

That's somebody's baby.
I know.

And it died. That's awful.
Of course it is.

It's hideous, it's just uh...

You know, maybe he did have
a terrible childhood.

No, that's an expression.

You can't make fun
of that kind of stuff. I wasn't.

It's just...we deal with hideous
stuff like this every day

and...well, after a while,
you kind of get used to it.

There's plenty of scientific
material on demonic possession.

A lot of psychiatrists
believe in it.

It's only if you have
no religious belief at all -

if you don't believe in Satan,
or an evil power,

you'll have trouble
believing in possession.

What led you to conclude
Piper was possessed?

I saw the signs.

He voice - sometimes it stopped
being her own.

For no reason, it would change
into a little girl's voice.

And her arms...

It was close to a 40 degree day
and Piper's arms were freezing.

I touched them myself.

It was incredible.

They were like ice.

He's really good-looking.

Did you ever consider there could be
another explanation?

Medical, not spiritual?
Ask anyone who knows.

Those signs, those are the
recognised signs of possession.

Yes, I held her against her will
for three days,

but the possessed person
loses control of their will.

Their decisions, their actions,
they're initiated by the devil.

You think I was trying to hurt
a beautiful soul like Piper?

I was doing everything in my power
to save her.

And no matter what happens to me,

at least I'll feel satisfied
that's what I've done.

Yeah. I'd let him tie me up
for three days.

Maybe Tony's right.

I can't prosecute this!
Every woman that sees the guy

stops listening to what he's saying
and checks him out.

Even Janet had a perv!

Six females on the jury and he
walks free. What's Piper like?

She's smart, she's angry,
she wants to take him on.

She was never genuinely religious?
She's too intelligent for that.

Sorry, I didn't mean -
Why do people think it's smarter

to believe in nothing
than something?

You can't prove anything,
either way.

Evolution
is slightly more convincing

than immaculate conception.
Why?

Because science can't explain it,
it can't have happened?

Science can't even fully explain
a yawn.

But we know more than one person

in the history of the human race
has done it.

Why are you so anti-religion?

As if Mary didn't invent
the virgin birth

to save her arse
from being stoned to death

because she got pregnant
out of wedlock!

Who's to say it was even Joseph?

Why are you so defensive?
It's not like you're so devout.

At least I have faith in something.

You're only a Muslim
when it suits you.

Unless it's OK to drink alcohol
and have sex before marriage now.

I might not follow the Five Pillars
of Islam, or be a good Muslim,

but I'm a good person.

Next time you're too lazy to do
your own work, ask someone else.

You're the expert.

How do you know for sure
when someone's possessed?

Just because someone says a person
is possessed doesn't make it so.

A priest must gather the facts,
build his case, like a lawyer.

He might consult doctors,
even psychiatrists.

Let's say the priest
thinks they are possessed -

is it usual for them to tie them up
and refuse to let them go? No.

That sort of violence has no place
during an exorcism, or any time.

So it does happen, then?

I can't say I've ever attended one.
Well, you lot must talk.

What's the gossip amongst the pews

while you're waiting
for your wafers?

Don't underestimate
the power of prayer,

and don't confuse
what happened to that girl

with Christ's message of love.
It may have been done in his name,

but never done with his blessing.

I hope she can find it
in her heart to forgive them.

Remember,
forgiveness is the fragrance

the violet sheds
on the heel that has crushed it.

Is that the Bible?

Mark Twain.

Wasn't Mark Twain an atheist?

The Lord doesn't have a monopoly
on quotable quotes, Ben.

I thought Ben McMahon was on this.

There was a clash with another ma-
Oh, my God, you're pregnant!

I mean...I didn't know.

Rhys never mentioned.

Not that he... Oh, wow!
Congratulations.

Thanks. Rhys and I are thrilled.

I'll see you in there.
Mm-hmm.

I'll be with you in a minute.

Your Honour, throughout the duration
of the day, the infant, Tom Jackson,

remained unattended inside
the defendant's locked vehicle.

Medical reports conclude the
six-month-old died of heatstroke

and that this is most likely
to have occurred in the first hour

of Mr Jackson parking his car
on Burke Street.

Your Honour, it should be noted
that when interviewed by police,

Mr Jackson indicated his guilt
and remorse immediately.

We recommend the defendant receive
a conviction

of manslaughter
by criminal negligence,

but that any custodial sentence
be suspended.

Ms Corvini, is there anything to say
on Mr Jackson's behalf?

Your Honour, I'm in
a difficult position here.

My client has given me
no instructions.

None whatsoever?

No instructions,
and no plea material.

He refuses to cooperate with
psychologists for assessment

and has told me to say nothing
in his defence.

Since the defence has made
no submissions,

we'll adjourn
until 10:00am tomorrow.

(Alarm beeps)

(Beeping stops)

Sorry.
Oh...

I'll be out of here in a minute.
Ow!

You all right?
Mm-hmm.

It's all so boring!
I hate choosing clothes for work.

I can never wear anything exciting.

I won't be long.

Can you believe
I've had to spend $45

on a ratings guide
for babies' equipment.

I had no idea
they had that kind of stuff.

Half the cots don't meet
Australian safety standards.

Then you've got to make sure
the mattress isn't too soft,

or it's a SIDS risk,
and the sides measure 60cm

from the base of the mattress
to the top of the cot.

Don't suppose you can just go
with the one that looks the best?

Why didn't I think of that?
Can I ask you about...

How did the Abe Jackson matter go?
The judge had nothing to consider,

we'll get a sentence today.
Nothing to consider? Didn't Paula -

Ben, I didn't want to do this,
but I said I would.

Stop breathing down my neck!
Everyone's favourite today!

Hey. Does $220 a week for a bedroom
in Newtown sound like a lot to you?

You're not serious?
Shared accommodation?

You realise no-one who knows these
people can bear to live with them?

This one sounds OK.

'I am quiet and tidy, vegetarian and
meditate daily.' Are you kidding?

Buddha here is gonna tell you off

every time you try to speak,
or eat a steak.

I'm running out of options. Under my
desk is starting to look good again.

Man, your life is -
Tragic. I know.

Well, Quinn really is dying.

Three doctors confirm
terminal lymphoma.

His prognosis, if he follows
the recommended treatment,

is one year at best. He was telling
the truth about something.

With this as evidence,
I'd be surprised

if they didn't set a new trial date
in the next month or two.

What time's the special mention?
Two.

I'll let you know when we have
a result. Appreciate it.

I did notice one other thing.
It may be inconsequential.

Quinn has herpes simplex virus
type two - genital herpes.

A fairly common STD. But if either
of the women share the virus...

Of course, it doesn't prove
anything. It can only help us.

Do we know? If either of them
have genital herpes?

Well, we need to ask.

Cos that won't be an awkward call.

'I'm sorry to bother you, I just
need to know, have got any STDs?'

He's got a fucking problem with me!
Who?

David. He keeps making me do things
I don't want to do.

You don't want to do anything.
My witnesses are late!

Of course they are - they're
stoners. Probably wasted.

Whose room do you like better?
Mine, or Con's? Tatum...

I can only deal with one catastrophe
at a time.

It's not a catastrophe,
it's called having options.

He's not answering.
Neither are you.

He's moving out. Probably to live
with a bossy vegan. Vegetarian.

Moving out?
My work here is done!

I thought you liked living
with me and Conrad? I do.

But you don't want to give up
your dressing room,

and Conrad doesn't want to give up
his gym.

Hello. I'm calling for Toby Bowen.

No, no. I'm not Toby -
I need to speak with him.

He's gone shopping? Where's Angus?

He's gone shopping, too?
When will he be back?

Brilliant. Perfect! That's what
I'll tell Judge Walker.

'I'm sorry, Your Honour,
for the absence of my witnesses,

but they popped out
to buy some munchies.'

They're not coming?
No.

They have to come.

Who are you calling?
The police.

Why? That's why lawyers do when
dodgy witnesses don't show up.

The police aren't gonna go
into the house, are they?

They'll wait outside?

If they find pot in the house,
that's their fault, not yours.

Ringing.

For you!

Me?
Mm. Jesse's obviously persistent.

How was the cage fight last night?
Didn't happen.

Jesse dislocated his elbow
at training.

Well, that was his excuse.

I think he's realised
he's too nice for me.

A bikini? That's not nice,
that's just sleazy.

Expensive brand, though.

Alistair's defence will concede
to injury, but not serious injury

if we agree to drop the false
imprisonment. Take it.

He'll get four months max.
Better than nothing.

Plus, it'll damage his reputation

and your exorcism girl will feel
vindicated. It's a good result.

I reckon they're scared
to go to trial. Settle the case!

It's done! I'm sure I could get
a conviction for false imprisonment.

No-one expects to be held
for three days against their will.

It's unpredictable
what a jury might decide.

No-one thinks
false imprisonment is OK.

Your problem is,
it's a foreseeability debate.

When Piper gave her consent,
did she know what she was in for?

What would a reasonable person -
No, no, no.

What would a highly-intelligent
person,

with a university scholarship
to study medicine

expect when she says yes
to an exorcism?

You don't think a jury
might be convinced

this would be on the cards?
Maybe. Maybe not.

But shouldn't we let a jury
make that decision?

Oh, you want to play it out
in court?

Bring them all
into the Alistair Hoy Show.

Have you seen him? Good-looking,
serious charisma.

That doesn't change the facts.
Facts? Don't worry about facts!

The defence
will bang on about facts,

especially the one about Piper
freely giving consent. She -

Freely giving consent.

Oh, look, I think this guy's
as big a dick as you do.

That's why I say take the deal.

Don't give him the chance to walk
away, acquitted of everything.

Richard!
What?

Mr Creamy.
The police stuffed up the file.

This should have been in it.

These are all prior convictions!
Five pages of prior convictions.

Ten of them are violent.
Domestic violence,

cruelty to animals,
aggravated assault.

This is the kind of man they let
sell ice cream to children?

You can't lose.
It's not the right format.

I nearly ruined a heel
getting this to you! Go!

Your Honour,
I do apologise profusely,

but this list of Mr Brumfield's
prior convictions -

and there do appear to be
a large number of them -

was not included in the police file
provided to the DPP.

In fact, this list was only made
known to me 12 minutes ago.

May I please see it?
Of course.

If you could possibly overlook
the presentation of that list,

which I do realise
is not in the correct format.

No, it is not.

But if you could see your way
past that small inconvenience.

It is a LARGE inconvenience.

Mr Stirling, I cannot make
head or tail of this document.

If you wish me to consider
these prior convictions,

then they must be presented
in chronological order.

I-I do apologise, Your Honour.

Perhaps you might agree
to a small adjournment,

so I may have time to type up the
list to Your Honour's satisfaction?

You are able to hand-write,
are you not?

Yes, of course I can write.
Although I have this -

Then you will hand-write a further
presentment of this list of priors

in the correct format for me now.
N-Now?

I will not be adjourning this case.
And I do not intend to wait

for that list to get lost
in the public service system.

Oh, we have plenty of time.

I made sure to set you aside
sufficient time for this matter.

How's uni going?
They all think I'm crazy there.

That, or a religious nut.

Bizarre, considering...

Look, we might have the same problem
if we take your case to a jury.

They'll think I'm mad,
or a fanatic?

Either. Both, maybe.

Whichever one, it's not so good.

You're not taking him to court,
are you?

You're letting that lunatic
get away with it?

He'll keep doing it!
He'll do it to someone else.

If we take a plea of guilty,

we know for sure
Alistair will serve time in jail.

I thought you were on my side?

Piper, in a courtroom,
it's what I can prove.

Alistair's lawyers will come back
to the fact you gave consent.

In the end, that might be
all they need to nail us.

I didn't have a choice!
Legally, you did.

I'm sorry,
I know this is not what you want.

Spencer was gonna kill himself.

Have you ever had
someone say that to you?

Someone you love,
who you know really means it?

Who says, 'I'm almost a doctor,
so I know how to do it properly.'

He sent me this text and I knew
I had to say yes, or he'd do it.

I was everything to him,
and he was everything to me.

If I hadn't gone along with it,
Spencer would be dead now.

If...

If-ba-sca...

Vi-je-ska... Bi-je-ka...
Piper. Hey.

(Gibberish)
Hey.

You're freezing!

Piper!

Help! Help! Tracey, help!

(Gibberish continues)

Help!

(Beeping)
Piper. Piper.

Piper.

Did the ambo say what's wrong
with Piper? Is she gonna be OK?

She's gone for tests. It could be
a few things, they don't know yet.

Maybe she's possessed!

She never said anything about her
boyfriend threatening suicide?

No.
Hell of a boyfriend!

Don't me ask me why she didn't call
the psych ward when he did that.

Haven't you worked out anything
about these two kids yet?

It's called love, Ben. Look it up.

Tony, the fact that he threatened
her changes everything.

If it's not consent freely given,
it's not consent.

Duress can negate consent,
but you still have to prove it.

You have to get the boyfriend
in here

and make him agree to be a witness.
Reckon you can do that?

If I do, you reckon
you'll sign the presentment?

If Piper genuinely believed

her boyfriend was prepared
to commit suicide

if she didn't agree to the exorcism,

you could argue the agreement
to the exorcism wasn't voluntary.

In legal terms, it could be as good
as if she never said yes.

You might nail the prick yet.

That was a short plea yesterday.

I can only follow
my client's instructions.

Those people -
the ones with the flowers -

are they Abe Jackson's relatives?
No, a support group.

They're other parents
who've done the same thing -

left their kids in cars
and killed them.

We all have to find ways
of living with guilt.

Sorry.

Spending 170 bucks an hour
on a marriage counsel

puts me in a bad mood.

The death of a human being
is always a matter of seriousness.

However, it is particularly
heartbreaking

when the victim
is a helpless infant.

I have given careful consideration

to the Crown's submission
to suspend a custodial sentence.

However, I believe this to be
a particularly serious offence.

Mr Jackson's actions fell far short
of the standard of care

which a reasonable person
would have exercised

and involved such a high risk
that death would follow,

that they merit criminal punishment.

Mr Jackson, will you please stand.

Abe Jackson,

for the manslaughter of Tom Jackson,

you are sentenced
to two years imprisonment.

I set a non-parole period
of six months,

with the remaining 18 months
of your sentence to be suspended.

Six months?!

You think that's all Tom's life
was worth?

Excuse my client, Your Honour.

I need to go to jail,
I need to stay there.

Mr Jackson, I'm afraid your wishes
are not driving my decision.

Well, he was my son.

My baby...

..to look after, and I forgot him.

I left him there...

..to die, slowly and painfully,
alone.

Do you know how hot it got
in that car?

Did you think about
what it must have been like

for him to die like that?

I did that to him. I need to pay.

I need to pay.

You've suffered a terrible loss,
Mr Jackson,

but I can't see any good purpose for
you or your family to suffer more.

Mr Stirling, when do you imagine
you might be finished?

I apologise profusely, Your Honour.
Yes. You have a habit of doing that.

Normally I'd write much faster,
only I have a sprained wrist.

Since we have the time,

may I ask how you came to suffer
such an injury?

A bike accident, Your Honour.

A student ran into me just as
I was about to attend a lecture.

Your lecture, in fact,
on criminal law and procedures.

Then it was you
who required that ambulance.

I didn't really need an ambulance -

it was called
by a concerned passer-by.

That ambulance dented my Prius.

(Stifled laughter)

I...apologise, Your Honour.

Profusely?

At least Mr Creamy
won't be swinging another bat

for three months
while he's in jail.

He would have got six months,

but the defence argued he performed
a community service as Mr Creamy.

I couldn't argue that my clients
were model citizens,

since they'd been found
in possession

of half a truckload of marijuana.

Bossy vegans are no fun.

Vegetarian.

And it's more fun
than living under my desk.

You have your choice of two
perfectly good rooms with us.

Tatum...I'm leaving.

Alright. Tonight I'll help you pack.

That's yes and yes
to genital herpes.

And a request from Ben

to please never have to make
those sort of phone calls again.

He'll do what he's told.

Both victims having the same STD
as Quinn,

it doesn't, in itself,
prove he had sex with them.

The defence will argue statistics
about rates of STD infection.

Genital herpes is one of the more
common ones.

It'd have to be a much rarer disease

to suggest they contracted it
from Quinn.

Unless they were virgins.
Do we know?

If they were virgins? Yes, we do.

And no, they weren't.
(Knock on door)

Good news. We're on in six weeks.

Brilliant.
Do we still have Judge Massey?

No, we had to change.

Still, Judge Watts isn't bad for us.
Michael Watts?

Bloody hell. Alright.

Six weeks?
You'd better get on with it.

Michael Watts wanted to be DPP,
but David got the job.

So he won't be doing us any favours.
Uh...no.

Janet, call for you on line one.

You asked to see me?

Why was Lina at
the Underwood mention yesterday,

and why was Erin doing
the Jackson plea hearing?

If you're given a case,
you follow it through. Understand?

I don't care what it is,
or how much you don't like it.

If this is about the Jackson plea -

You are so used to people
doing your dirty work,

you think that's the way
it's gonna be in here, too?

I didn't agree
with prosecuting Abe Jackson.

You don't get to be a McMahon
in here.

You don't get the privilege
of picking and choosing - I do.

If I see value in a case,
you prosecute it and do a good job.

Five children a day are being
rescued from inside parked cars.

Five kids a day! And you think
him spending six months in jail

is gonna change that?
You think that's serving justice?

This is bullshit!
What we do here, it's all bullshit!

Prosecuting the Jackson case and
a thousand others just like it

is your job.

And there are plenty of other
lawyers ready to take it from you.

Now get out!

Fuck!

You have someone waiting
at reception.

Can I be blunt? Let me be blunt.

We need to stop pissing around here,
and help Piper.

What does that mean for Alistair?
This isn't about taking sides.

That's EXACTLY what it's about. If I
help Piper, I put Alistair in jail.

You said you loved her. You'd do
anything? Here's your chance.

You need to say
what really happened.

You threatened self-harm
if she didn't take that exorcism.

You cannot use the law
to judge what happened.

Law and religion
are entirely different.

Laws are put there to punish,
religion is based on forgiveness.

He's not a bad man.

I have no doubt Alistair's religious
beliefs are sincere,

and he was confident that exorcism
would help Piper.

But that confidence,
that was the problem.

Alistair just didn't know enough
about what he was doing.

You're a med student,
you know confusional migraine.

The hospital tests can't prove it,
but they say it's a possibility.

It would account for Piper's speech.
That's what the specialist said.

But he couldn't prove it, either.

You know it could explain
your girlfriend's symptoms,

but you refused to consider it?

Confusional migraines are generally
triggered by head trauma.

Piper hasn't had a head trauma.
Generally, but not always.

Isn't it at least as possible
as being possessed?

Spencer,
this is not about your religion.

This is about telling the truth.

Piper did not agree to take part in
that exorcism of her own free will.

You want me to put him in prison
for trying to help?

No, I want you to stand up
for the girl you say you love!

Spencer!

I don't know shit about love,
but what you're doing, it's not it.

Don't forget your pillow.

It's yours.

Consider it a house-warming gift.

It's just in there.

Like it?
Oh, my God.

I can't believe it.

You knew about this? Well, I knew
Conrad took half the day off work

to get the room ready, but...
So, what do you think?

Uh... What about
Tatum's dressing room?

I hope you appreciate
the sacrifice I've made -

my clothes are keeping company
with the Nautilus machine.

They really don't have to.

That's in case you miss us,
now you're in here on your own.

You've thought of everything.

We love you, man.

Hey!
I'm in here!

They've passed every possible test,
there are no sharp edges

and I've measured and double-checked
everything.

These might be the safest cots
known to man.

But if you need to be sure...

I know you want to measure
the space between the bars.

Thank you for choosing the cots.

But, you know, don't choose
pink bedding for one and blue...

We're having a pink and a blue?

I'm so sorry I ruined the surprise.

What did you do - race over
here the second I hung up?

Pretty much. Thought you might
be wearing the bikini.

Actually, that's why I called.

Thanks, but...you should
take it back.

Don't you like it?
It's not gonna happen, Jimmy.

You and I...it's just not.

That's why you called me here?

To tell me it's not gonna happen?

Yes.
