Bingo.

You know, I know my rights.
I'm doing Arts/Law.

I'll be sure to mention that

It's not my gear!

Hey, steady on, mate.

Whoa.

(SIRENS WAIL)

A bunch of over-educated morons,
Simon.

Local divvies got wind
they were growing dope.

Looks like they were right.
Oh, yeah.

We hit the place this morning.

We're pulling up the plants,
turn up a hand.

Your mates have dug a little deeper,
found him.

Eddie.
Matt.

He's not a recent inclusion, then?

Pathologist's organising
the contractors.

She reckons anywhere between
8 and 10 years at this stage.

Back of the head's been bashed in.

Is that your probable
cause of death?

Doesn't look like it, no.

There's multiple heel impressions,
fingernails broken off.

Crime scene reckon that's because
he was still alive and struggling

when the grave was filled in.

Buried alive.

What a way to go.

Hey, Jennifer.
Morning.

How's he doing?
Steady. No change.

Right.

See you soon, Dunny.

One of us will be in a bit later.

'Bye.

Pathology's still saying
8 to 10 years, Sarge.

Not a lot to work with.

What about the house owner?
A Mr Fortunato.

He lives overseas,

has done for 20 years.

A real estate agent
handles the place.

Any line on previous tenants?

The agent says he'll chase up
tenancies over the period.

But it's not looking good.
Why's that?

Apparently, it's always been
a student rental

because it's close to the uni.

"A transient/multiple occupancy,"
according to the agent.

OK, what are we doing
in the meantime?

Trying to ID the corpse.
Si's speaking to Missing Persons now.

Already done.
And I think we may have a hit.

Nine men with the physical
characteristics of our victim

went missing
in the '98-'99 time frame.

All have been resolved except
for one - an Angus Carmichael.

What's his story?
He was a lecturer at the uni.

He disappeared in June '99.

I dug out the original paperwork.

Feeling was he'd taken off
with one of his star pupils -

an Elizabeth Cowles.

He was 38. She was 19.

And not seen since?
No, off the planet, both of them.

OK. You and Matt get over to the
university, see what you can find.

Sarge. Any news
on Superintendent Waverley?

No. I'm hoping no news is good news.

Ms Waverley, did you not understand
what my colleague said?

I can't see you.
You 're gonna have to see me.

Your case will be dealt with soon.

There is no case! It's a fabrication.

I'm interested in evidence,
that's all.

Good. That's what this is - evidence.

(EVIL LAUGHTER)

Evidence? Of what?

That image is a permanent fixture
on a computer

that was delivered anonymously
to my house

the day after you people
raided my home and my office

and accused me of corruption.

And you construe this clown thing
as meaning what?

I don't know.

I'm not sure,
but it does suggest I'm being set up.

Ms Waverley...
It's Superintendent.

Your rank will only apply
if you 're reinstated,

and, given the evidence
we have in our possession,

I can't see that happening.

What evidence?
I can't tell you that.

Well, what about this evidence, then?

You could have put that together
yourself, couldn't you?

And even if you didn't,
what does it mean?

That's certainly not clear.

The details of your case

will be communicated to you
very shortly, I believe.

I can't discuss it with you now.

You seize my possessions,
you turn my life upside down,

you take away my livelihood,

all based on evidence
you can't reveal,

and you won't discuss it with me?!

I have other meetings.

You 'll discuss it with me right now
or I'll stay here until you do.

Good day, Ms Waverley.

Are you leaving
or shall I call security?

I'd only been Registrar for a year,
in '99, but, yes, I do remember.

Elizabeth Cowles was a very bright girl,
on a state scholarship.

Personality?
Sensible, down-to-earth.

So it was a shock when it happened.

A shock that she'd run away
with Mr Carmichael?

Yes. Angus Carmichael
was her philosophy lecturer.

I think he took the principles of
motivational hedonism a bit too far.

Was it ever confirmed
that they were having an affair?

There were rumours.

When they took off together,
the rumours seemed to be confirmed.

Seemed to be?

Well, now you point it out,
I suppose it was an assumption,

but a reasonable one.

Why?

Well, Angus had resigned
his position.

He was unhappy in the job

and, by all accounts, not too happy
in his home life, either.

But Elizabeth running off,
that was a surprise?

Yes. She just didn't seem the type.

She was hard-working, focused.

To throw everything away
on a man twice her age

was so out of character.

Mr Carmichael, was he single or was
he married when all this happened?

He was in a de facto relationship.

His partner's name
was Freya... something.

Someone in the faculty
will know the surname.

It's Bascombe now. I'm married.

You don't seem too upset about
Mr Carmichael's death.

Well, no. You 're sure it's him?
Yeah, we have a dental match, yes.

So when did it happen, recently?

It looks like he died shortly after

he walked out on his job
at the university.

And on me.
Yes. Sorry.

Oh, don't apologise. I'm over it.
Been over it for years.

I wished him ill
and it worked, apparently.

How did he die?

You never wondered where he'd gone?

They, Detective, where they'd gone.

No. No. He left without a word.

He took nothing except some cash,
his precious car, a few clothes

and his passport,
so I assumed they'd gone overseas.

Angus had some connections
in America.

He was listed as a missing person.
(SCOFFS) Not by me.

By his awful parents
being melodramatic,

refusing to believe he could've done
anything so stupid.

Well, he could, believe me.

His parents?
Yeah. Both dead now too. Sorry.

So, when he left,
there was no warning?

No. No.

Everyone else knew he was having
an affair, well, so I discovered later.

I felt like an idiot.
You must have been angry.

And you think I went after him
and killed him?

No. No, no, I didn't.

I burnt the clothes he'd left behind
in the incinerator,

tore up all his books, binned
his stupid trophies, his chess set.

I performed an exorcism.

How long have you known
your current husband?

Seven years.

And, no, I wasn't already
seeing him back then.

And you can check.
We will.

(LAUGHS) I had no reason
to kill Angus, Detective.

As far as I was concerned,
he was already dead.

And you were right.

Bit of an ice queen.
Check your appendages for frostbite.

Wouldn't surprise me if she knows

more about our cellar-dweller
than she lets on.

Yeah, certainly no love lost there.

So... let's see how Elizabeth Cowles's
parents felt about him.

Oh, Christ. Please, don't tell me
Elizabeth's dead too.

We have no information to suggest
that is the case, Mr Cowles.

I should be happy he's dead.

He seduced my daughter,
he took her away.

I haven't seen her since.

This is Lizzie.

I'll never forgive that mongrel
for what he did to her.

With respect, sir,
she was supposed to have been

a willing participant
when they ran away.

That was gossip, speculation.

You didn't know Lizzie.
She was a wonderful girl.

Just a child, and him a grown man,

riding around
in that old sports car.

You listed her as a missing person.
Fat lot of good it did.

We went to the police,
we wanted to put out appeals.

They said it wasn't like
she was missing, was it?

(DOOR OPENS)
WOMAN: George.

George, you really missed something.
Madison's little recital was...

Oh, sorry.

This is my wife, Beverley.

They're detectives.
Detectives?

Detective Joyner and Ryan.

Maddie, why don't you take your case
to the sunroom, love?

You can play
for Nan and Pop again later.

MADDIE: OK.

What's going on?
This is Fiona, Elizabeth's sister.

What's this about?

Oh, God.

It's about Elizabeth, isn't it?

It's about Angus Carmichael.
He's dead.

What?
His remains have been found.

Where? I mean, how?

Oh, not Elizabeth too?

Is that why you 're here?
No. No, not at all.

We're just trying to find out what
we can about their relationship.

It wasn't a relationship.
I told you, she was 19, just a child.

We just wanted to advise you
of this development.

Can any of you think of anyone

who might've wanted to harm
Mr Carmichael?

Apart from me?
Oh, George.

Look, we didn't know him.
That's the thing.

We were down on the farm,
and she was up here.

As far as we were aware,
he was just one of her teachers.

And then, suddenly, she was gone.

With him.

So, where is she, detectives?

Where's my daughter?
We don't know yet, sir.

We're still looking.

G'day, John.
Hey, mate.

Guys.
WOMAN: Hey, Matt.

G'day, Matt.
Todd, how we going?

Looks like we'll have to
tear the whole damn house apart.

I brought caffeine. Might help.
Cheers. Thanks.

Alright, catch you later.
See ya.

Detective!

I think we might have something.

I think we've just found
Elizabeth Cowles.

So, how's Josh bearing up?
He's alright.

I haven't told him everything.
I haven't shown him the computer.

Apart from getting used to the fact
that he's not going overseas,

that he's back at school,
I think he's coping.

What about you?

Well, I'm just mystified, Stanley.

I have no idea
where this is coming from.

Maybe you should have a look
at your files.

(LAUGHS) How can I do that?
I can't even enter the building.

I'll tell you what.

Why don't I stay back? You can come
in late and you can use my computer.

No, I can't ask you to do that.

Just let me know.

(TV PLAYS)

Why aren't you at school?

I got in a fight.

They sent me home.
What happened?

Why didn't you tell me the whole story
about us not going overseas?

I'm not a baby!

The whole school finds out
before I do and I look like a dickhead.

Calm down and tell me
what's going on!

You should've told me!

(DOOR SLAMS)

STANLE Y: The ring was found
with the body.

I gave it to her
when she won her scholarship.

I drove her into town.
She picked it out herself.

I'm sorry.

In a wall.

My little girl.

How long?

The pathologist estimates that
they died around the same time.

How did they die? Do you know?

We're not clear on what happened
to your daughter yet.

We know this is very hard
for both of you.

We need you to think back
to the time when your daughter left.

Anything that might help us.

Well, we... drove up from the farm
as soon as we found out she'd gone.

But she'd packed all her things
and left.

We thought they'd just
got into his car

and driven off into the sunset,
you know, happy ever after.

That's what we were
supposed to think.

And she was dead, all along.

She was dead.

Well, hit the button.

Turned up any more bodies yet?
No.

We're checking the rest
of the property, though.

They were believed to have run
away together. Apparently not.

Mmm. Seen the papers this morning?

Finally come out, Bernice Waverley's
been accused of corruption.

Yeah.
Who'd have thought, eh?

What do you reckon, Stanley?

It's a mistake.

The OPS don't make mistakes,
do they?

They don't move
until they've got proof.

You know their MO, Terry.

They don't need proof.
They hypothesise.

I wouldn't be mouthing off about
the OPS if I was you, Stan.

They've got bigger ears than Yoda.

SIMON: Sarge.
Ah, Simon.

How are you going
on the tenants for the house?

I've traced a couple,
got more in process.

And I am actually off to talk
to one right now.

Two birds, one stone.

Now, this isn't a visit, OK?
I've just popped in.

I'm on the job.

But one of us will be back
this evening as usual.

Now, try this for a change because
that rubbish that Mattie keeps playing,

it's enough to put me in a coma.

('W HITE NOISE'
B Y THE LIVING END PLAYS)

(GRUNTS)

Enjoy.

I'll catch you later, Dunny.

Detective Joyner?
Lance Turner, I got a page.

Sorry, I was just visiting someone.

A relative?
A colleague.

How are they doing?
No change.

I'm sorry. That can be tough
on everybody.

Is this about Angus Carmichael?
Yeah.

Yeah. How did you hear about that?
My wife told me last night.

She said you found his body.
I'm sorry. How did she know?

My wife is Fiona Cowles,
Elizabeth's older sister.

Is she really?

So, you all lived together
in a share house?

Yes. Elizabeth moved in with Fiona
and me when she came up to go to uni.

Bev and George were happy, I think,
knowing she was with family.

But the lease was in your name only.
Yes.

Well, I was the only one
with references.

Plus, Fi and I were married,
which makes landlords happy.

Who else lived in the house
over that period?

Oh, wow, let's think.

We were there for two years.
Quite a few people moved through.

According to our information,
you were there for three years.

No, two years.
Fi and I moved out middle of '99.

We'd had our daughter,
so we got a place of our own.

You just left your name
on the lease?

Yeah. Some other students
had moved in by then.

I didn't take my name off the lease
till about a year later.

I started getting letters
about nonpayment of rent.

Some girls were living there by then.
Art students.

You seen the rubbish they're writing
about Superintendent Waverley?

It's gotta be a mistake.

But Jarvis didn't seem
too surprised.

Why? What was he saying?
Nothing, that's the point.

He wasn't jumping to her defence.
No, that'd be right.

Waiting to see if the mud sticks.

Look, we all know a crooked cop
when we see one.

Waverley is as straight as they come.

I know that, you know that,
the Sarge knows that,

but not everyone thinks like we do.

The Office of Police Stupidity, for one.

Could you say that
a little bit louder?

Alright, alright.

Si, any luck at the hospital?
Yeah, bit of a lead.

Lance Turner and Fiona Cowles
are married.

He already knew about
Angus Carmichael.

Right.

Fiona was there when
we told her parents about him.

You didn't mention
where we found the body?

No need to. It wasn't relevant.

Well, as it turns out,
Fiona and Lance shared that house

with Elizabeth and various
other students over the years.

Any names?
No. He said he couldn't remember.

So I've spoken to
a real estate agent.

He's working on a list.

If Lance Turner and Fiona
were living there with Elizabeth,

did they ever see Angus Carmichael?

He says not.

He said they had no idea
they were even in a relationship.

They thought she was on
with a guy called Luke,

apparently they were very close.

Luke?
Yeah, a Luke Ferney.

Another student. He spent
a lot of time with Elizabeth.

The guy's a perennial academic.

He's lecturing in philosophy
at the uni now.

We're interested in your
relationship with Elizabeth Cowles.

Wow. Relationship.

No, it wasn't
a relationship relationship.

We used to study together a lot.

She was incredibly bright,
inspiring, really.

That's an odd word to use.

Is it? I suppose it is.

But that's how I remember her.
She made study exciting.

She had a great mind.

She looked good too, though,
didn't she?

Yes. But we were just friends.

By mutual consent?

Oh, hey, I was 19, she was gorgeous,

I wouldn't have minded,
but it never happened.

It was platonic.

How did you feel when Elizabeth
took off with Angus Carmichael?

Disappointed.

She, er, threw everything away.
So did he. It was a shame.

It's always disappointing when
brilliant people behave stupidly.

(EXHALES)

Here was I thinking
Stanley was burning the candle.

What are you doing, Bernice?

How did you get in?

Old one. It still works.

Surprise.
Yeah.

Surprise.

I need to access my own files,
that's all.

You 're not thinking, Bernice.
You know how this works.

If the OPS find out
you 've done this,

it'll only make things
worse for you.

Worse? How can things get any worse?

My son was assaulted at school today

because they've leaked it
to the press.

What am I supposed to do, just let
them roll right over the top of me?

Give me the card.

(SIGHS)

Bernice.

You were never here.

Ah, Superintendent.
Don't mind me.

Yeah, just a briefing.
Invisible man.

Both buried in the same cellar,
suggests the same killer.

Possibly.
Same MO?

The male suffered a blow to the back
of the head, then he was buried alive.

We still don't have a cause of death
for the girl. No clear indicators.

Still - same house,
same kind of disposal,

most likely the same killer.

Just ignore me.

Any news on Angus Carmichael's car?

We're following up
on the VIN number, Sarge.

It's currently owned by a woman
in New South Wales.

She bought it
from a dealer up there.

We're trying to backtrack it.
Stay on it. Could be our best lead.

I've just been on the phone
to pathology.

Apparently, there was meconium
and amniotic fluid

mixed with some of the blood
on the sheet she was wrapped in.

It was also on the nylon fibres
of her nightie.

Which means what?

Just before she died,
Elizabeth Cowles gave birth to a baby.

So, where is the baby?

REPORTER: More evacuations
at the House of Horrors

as police search for the grisly remains
of possible other victims.

This is Sienna O'Donnell,
Eight News.

My daughter was not pregnant!
She would've told me.

Mr Cowles, I have daughters,
I love them and I know they love me,

but there are some things I know
they would not talk to me about.

We didn't have secrets.

Your daughter was hiding
other things from you.

She was in a relationship
with an older man.

I think you oughta leave now.
Oh, George.

He's wrong!

Mr Cowles, we have to ask
these questions. I'm sorry.

REPORTERS: Detective!
REPORTER: Detective, over here!

REPORTER: How many victims?

(SPEAK INAUDIBLY)

A baby?
You didn't know?

No.

You spent a lot of time with her.
We were just friends.

Were you, Mr Ferney?

Sir?

OK, OK. So we slept together
a couple of times, so what?

So you lied to us. She dumped you for
somebody else. We call that a motive.

And I call that facile thinking.

We can confirm that
the two bodies recovered

are those of an Angus Dermott
Carmichael and an Elizabeth Cowles.

Now, both victims disappeared
10 years ago in June of 1999.

You knew she was pregnant,
didn't you?

No.

Don't lie to me again, Mr Ferney.

Alright.

I knew.

I was seeing her,
she was involved with another man.

Now they're both dead.
Wouldn't you lie?

So, what happened?

I thought the baby was mine.

I wanted to marry Elizabeth.
She said no.

She didn't wanna be with me.

Anything you may know
about the victims,

their background or their history,

anything that might help us,
then please call.

Was she thinking about a termination?
No, I didn't get that impression.

So, what was she gonna do?
Adopt out, she said.

To who? Had she made plans?
Seen an agency?

I don't know.
She told me not to tell anyone.

Then, suddenly she was gone.
All the rumours were flying.

And then I realised
it was Angus Carmichael

she'd been seeing all along.

So, that's all, that's it.

Can I go now?
No.

Let's try a different scenario.

You found out she was having a baby.
You found out it wasn't yours.

You confronted her, it turned ugly,

and then you killed her
and you killed him too!

That didn't happen.

By the time I'd put it together,
they'd already left.

Had they?
I didn't harm either one of them.

I wouldn't.

STANLE Y: What about you?
Did you notice any changes?

Nothing. And we were close,
you know?

Plus, I was pregnant
at the same time,

and, well, you pick up on things
when you 're pregnant.

You were pregnant at the same time
as Elizabeth?

Yeah. That year, yeah.
We'd been trying for ages.

If Elizabeth had been pregnant,
I'm sure I would have realised.

Elizabeth was not having a baby!
Oh, George!

I don't care what he says. She would've
told me. They've made a mistake.

Maybe George is right.
There's been no mistake.

Your daughter gave birth to a child
shortly before she died.

So, you 're saying we could have

another grandchild
out there somewhere?

We hope that's the case, yeah.

Oh, my God.

(ROCK MUSIC PLAYS FAINTLY)

What are you doing?
You should be dressed. You 're late.

I'm not going to school.
Oh, yes, you are.

I don't need this, Josh.
I need your support.

Do you wanna know everything
that's going on?

I'll tell you what's going on.
I've been summoned.

I have to go to the OPS tomorrow
and they're probably gonna charge me.

So if it's not too much trouble,
get bloody dressed and get to school!

It's not fair! You mess up
and I'm the one who has to suffer!

(SLAMS DOOR)

Still no news from the house?
No sign of a buried baby.

And they won't find one either.

It turns out big sister just happened
to be pregnant that year as well.

10 years ago?

Elizabeth's sister, Fiona,
and her husband, Lance,

had been trying to have a baby
for a long time,

then, miraculously, Fiona gave birth.

About the same time
Elizabeth would've given birth.

We've checked
with the registry office.

June '99, Madison Jade Turner
was born to Fiona and Lance.

Delivered at home.

It isn't a story, OK?
She's our daughter.

When's her birthday?

June 28th.

A week after your sister disappeared.
Yes. It was a very difficult time.

And where was she born?

At the house.

Midwife?
We didn't need one. I'm a doctor.

You were just an intern back then
without any experience in obstetrics.

Home birth's a bit risky
for your first child, isn't it?

Not really. It went fine.

Do you have any pictures?
Of the birth? No.

What about during the pregnancy?
What are you suggesting?

We're suggesting that
Elizabeth concealed her pregnancy

while your wife pretended
to be pregnant.

(SCOFFS) That's ridiculous.

Is it really? Because you two
were desperate to have children.

Elizabeth didn't want a child.

MATT: So you kill her,
wait a couple of days,

then turn up at your parents' farm
with the baby.

And minus your padding,
whatever you used.

No. Madison is mine.
We don't believe you.

Madison is not your child, is she?

Mrs Turner?

No.

Alright, look... she isn't, OK?
But we did not kill Elizabeth.

It wasn't like that.

Elizabeth... she... she did not
want to be pregnant, OK?

She just wanted to be free
to run off with Angus Carmichael.

They were besotted with each other.

Why not just have a termination?

That was her plan A.

She wanted me to go with her,
to hold her hand.

It was like torture, you know,
when we wanted a baby so badly.

So... we talked to her,

told her how much
we'd love the baby.

She didn't wanna go full-term.

So what convinced her?

Money.

We were saving for a house.

The money was gonna be useful
to her... running away.

We helped her - she got her travel
money and we got our daughter.

Did Mr Carmichael know
that you 'd taken the child?

Yes, of course he did.

And he was happy about that?
Yes.

He was interested in Elizabeth,
he wasn't interested in being a father.

Really?

Was the child even his?

What? You think I slept
with my sister-in-law?

A DNA test would eliminate
that possibility, wouldn't it?

It didn't happen!
I'm not gonna take any test.

Angus Carmichael was the father.

If he wasn't, that would give you
the perfect motive for killing Elizabeth.

But we don't know anything
about that.

Then why refuse the test?
Alright! I will take a paternity test!

Look, I didn't kill Elizabeth.

So what happened to her?
I don't know!

He must've come up to the house and
taken her when we went to the farm.

Mrs Turner, we found her body
still in the nightie she gave birth in.

How do you explain that?

I... (EXHALES)

L-I can't.

I don't know any more.
I can't explain it.

As far as we knew,
they just ran off together.

But they didn't, did they?

Somehow, they both ended up dead.

She's admitted to taking
her sister's child but that's all.

Same with Lance.

Elizabeth gives them her baby
and conveniently disappears?

But until we can prove otherwise,
we let them go.

Somebody out there
knows what happened.

We need to find them.

The science proves that
your ex-partner, Angus Carmichael,

was the father of the child.

You want me to get upset
about it now, 10 years on?

We've had some more information
from the university.

Apparently, in the week
before he went missing,

your ex-partner presented
with facial bruising.

Oh, yeah. Claimed he fell
down some stairs at work.

But you don't think that was it?

It was clear that someone - not me -
had given him a decent beating.

You know who?
(LAUGHS) No.

No, I never got the opportunity
to get the real truth out of him.

He took off two days later.

It wasn't me who hit him.

I wouldn't dirty my hands.

Well, somebody gave the man
a beating.

Not me! You can't keep dragging me
in here like this.

I've done nothing.

Look, it wasn't me.

I don't believe in violence.

You look like you could
handle yourself.

Angus Carmichael wasn't a big bloke.
I didn't hit him.

I told you, it wasn't
until after they'd left

that I worked it all out.

He turned up at his home
with bruises on his face.

He claimed he'd fallen down
some stairs.

So, maybe he did.

Mr Cowles, you 're an honest man,
I can tell.

So if you swear to me
you didn't hit Angus Carmichael,

I'm prepared to believe you.

Mr Cowles?

OK. I hit him.

When was this?

He comes up to the farm,
he was looking for Lizzie.

Lance and Fiona must've been home
with the bub for a day.

He comes up,
he starts harassing my wife.

And what happened?
I lost my temper.

I must have hit the bastard
two, three times.

Then what?
I sent him on his way.

Lucky for him,
Beverley made me back off,

or he'd have been in real strife,
I can tell you that.

Did you follow Angus Carmichael later
and kill him?

Don't be stupid. I'd made my point.

Far as I was concerned,
it was done with.

OK, so, Elizabeth Cowles
is pregnant.

The last two weeks of her term,
she drops out of sight.

MATT: Sister and brother-in-law
deliver the baby.

Everyone goes their separate ways.

Only they don't.
Elizabeth and Angus wind up dead.

We've got a clear timeline at least.

Three days after the baby's born,

Angus Carmichael turns up
at the Cowles's farm

and gets his head punched in
by George Cowles.

Two days before he disappeared.
Fiona and Lance must be lying.

Elizabeth would've been dead
in the cellar wall by then.

Unless they expect us to believe

she sat around in that bloodied
nightdress for three days.

OK. So how do we prove it?

What about Angus Carmichael's
sports car? Was there anything there?

Now, that is
a work in progress, Sarge.

The New South Wales dealer
bought it, ex-plates,

from a Victorian dealer,
way out in Woop Woop.

Apparently, it was delivered to him

on the back of a flat-bed truck,
by a towie.

And?

We're currently trying
to trace the towie.

Ms Waverley.

The purpose of this meeting
is to officially inform you

of the charges that are
being laid against you.

Charges now. That's a development.

An exhaustive investigation
into your computer activity,

banking arrangements
and professional conduct

has been undertaken.

Bernice Waverley, I must now inform
you that you are being charged

with corruption,
the acceptance of bribes

and the use of your position

as Superintendent
of Victoria State Police

for personal financial gain.

That's absurd!

I want details. I want to know
who's making these allegations.

These are no longer just allegations
as far as the OPS is concerned.

These are established facts
supported by evidence.

And next, a hearing?

Either you plead guilty

and the matter is referred
directly to the DPP,

or you choose to oppose our findings
and take this to an internal inquiry

which will in itself,
given our submissions,

refer the matter to the DPP.

Your decision.
You know my answer to that.

I don't need to know it
at this point.

I hope it isn't necessary
to remind you

that you are currently
suspended without pay

and should not enter police premises

or associate with
serving police members.

That is all, Ms Waverley. Thank you
for your attendance here today.

Am I allowed to make a statement?

You 'll have an opportunity
to do that at the appropriate time.

This is the appropriate time,

and I would like to have it
put on the record

that when I am found innocent,

be aware that I will have you
for defamation,

for mental anguish
and for malicious prosecution.

Or I'll put it another way -
I'm gonna sue your arses off.

(SLAMS DOOR)

This is a lease agreement for the
6-month hire of a lock-up garage.

We traced Angus Carmichael's car
to that garage.

A tow truck driver remembers
picking it up from there.

Is that your signature
on the lease agreement?

That's just a scribble.
It could be anybody's.

We think you garaged Carmichael's car
for six months,

and then you sold it on.

No.

Come on. It was a woman
who rented that garage.

You 've already admitted
to taking your sister's child.

Yes. But that's all.

We didn't kill anybody.
No?

We think it's entirely possible

that you killed Elizabeth to take her child
and then Mr Carmichael found out.

You had to kill him too.
No.

You both knew if you dumped the car,
it could be found,

so you waited till you thought
it was safe, then you sold the car.

No! No! No!
No plates, unregistered.

No identifiable features -
like it had never existed.

Like Angus Carmichael never existed.
No!

You knew he was dead.

You knew he hadn't run off
with Elizabeth

because you knew she was dead too.

What do you say about that?
It's not true.

What really happened to Elizabeth?
She died! Yes!

But it wasn't murder, it... it...

It just... it went wrong,
and she died.

Lance tried to deliver the baby,

but it was breach.

He didn't have any instruments.

I had to reach in
and turn the baby manually.

There was a lot of blood.

She was... she was screaming.

Screaming.

I managed to save the baby but...

...Elizabeth was bleeding so much,

there was nothing I could do
and she died, she died.

MATT: Was Angus Carmichael there?
No.

Was he there, wanted to report it?
No.

Did you panic and kill him too?

No.

You killed them both
to keep that child, didn't you?

No!
You took Elizabeth's life.

I saved her baby!

If she'd been in a hospital,
she wouldn't have died, would she?

You think we don't know that?

You think we don't look at Madison
every day and see Elizabeth in her

and regret what happened?

You think we don't care?

OK.

So who killed Angus Carmichael, then?

Who?

(PLAYS VIOLIN)

GEORGE: I don't believe any of this.
You 're saying Madison is Lizzie's?

And Lizzie died giving birth to her?

Yes. I'm sorry.

MATT: Then Angus Carmichael
was murdered.

Will Fiona and Lance be charged?

Not with murder, no. Not them.

What?

You knew?

You knew about all this?
For God's sake, George.

The girls could never
hide anything from me.

Of course I knew.

10 years of misery, 10 years of
heartache, and you knew all along?

I did more than know!

It was my idea for Fiona
to get that child.

She was a born mother.

Elizabeth didn't even want a baby.

How could you do this!?

She would never have made it
to the hospital.

You killed her.

She bled to death
before the child was out.

Your little girl.

You loved her more than
all the family put together.

(GROANS)
But she was dead!

So what could I do?!

(WHIMPERS)

George.

Charge me, not Fiona and Lance.

So you were at the delivery?

(SIGHS)

I've delivered babies before.

Babies, calves, lambs.

Lance was just a student.
He was all fingers and thumbs.

When something needed to be done,
I did it... not him.

I saved the baby.
And killed your daughter.

There was nothing
to be done for her.

What about Angus Carmichael?

He was never going to stop
looking for Elizabeth.

(SIGHS) So I convinced him
she was back at the house.

When he got there, I was waiting.

In the cellar.

I hit him over the head
with a spade...

...and I buried him.

Did you know he was still alive?

No.

Oh, God.

(SOBS)
