Original subtitles

ANDY: I had the most frustrating wild-goose chase

with Cedric just now.

Ah! See?

CASSIE: I just wanna know the truth.

- Why? - I'm a journalist.

Jimmy mentioned something about a bunker.

ANDY: If we find the bunker, we find the money.

It's gotta be there.

Fuck!

I'm running out of time.

CASSIE: And I'm not leaving

until you tell me the truth about what's really going on.

ANDY: They made us open fraudulent accounts

and move money offshore for them

via this Australian account that we set up in Hugo's name.

So, you became money launderers?

LILIANA: I'm worried we might have

been exposed to some kind of fraud.

Fraud?

I know who murdered Hugo Drivas.

(EDGY, PENSIVE MUSIC)

LILIANA: Of course, lots of clients have two accounts,

but it's the way one of the accounts is being used.

DOM: Well, lots of hospitality workers get paid in cash.

LILIANA: Yeah, but look -

all the money gets transferred overseas.

Again, the same pattern as migrant workers.

Perhaps Mr Liu is supporting his family.

Mm. I think we should file a suspicious activity report.

File a SAR? (SCOFFS)

Look, all these transactions are under, what, $10,000.

We're not obligated to report them.

I tell you what. I tell you what.

Look, I'll, uh... I'll look into it.

There's something else.

I asked IT to find out who opened the account.

It was Andy.

What are you saying?

Dom, you're one of our best. I trust you.

But Andy...

Andy is a good guy.

Look, there has to be some explanation for all this.

ANDY ON VOICEMAIL: Hey, this is Andy.

I can't come to the phone right now,

so leave a message and have a great day.

(TONE BEEPS)

(WHISPERS) Look, Lili's onto us, man!

Look, I can't wait for you any longer.

I'm going to the client.

We need to make the transfer and clean house.

(PHONE BEEPS)

WOMAN OVER PHONE: So, it's a murder mystery?

CASSIE: No, it's a missing persons case

which evolved into a murder investigation.

OK. Well, can I hear a bit more about the story, then?

No. No details until you agree.

(LAUGHS) What makes your podcast so different?

Oh, I promise you everyone is gonna want this.

- OK, can I call you back? - Yeah, talk to you later.

(INTRIGUING JAZZY MUSIC)

- What's going on? - Jimmy left last night.

Left? You mean...

What do you mean?

Gone. "Time to move on," the note said.

Poor bugger.

Hugo's death really hit him hard.

ANDY: You ready?

Always.

Oh! Hey, Val.

Good to see ya.

Crazy party the other night, huh?

Yeah. It got a little nuts. I wish I left with you.

Not with you. I mean when you did.

Anyway, uh, while we're chatting,

I was wondering if you happen to know anybody

that smokes Kemp cigarettes?

(CHUCKLES)

OK, well, thank you.

Wanna go?

(INTRIGUING JAZZY MUSIC)

(SIRENS WAIL)

MAN: $250,000 went missing.

Yeah, and Andy is taking care of that as we speak.

The problem is our manager - she's been poking around.

Why?

Dom, don't...

(WHISPERS) Did you file a SAR?

No!

(SOFTLY) No. But she wants to.

Look, I think I've held her off, but, look, we need to act fast.

So, if you can make another placement...

(SOFTLY) Oh! Dom!

You lost the client's money

and now you want the client to trust you with more money?

Well, I'll transfer it immediately

and then close the account.

It'll be as though it never existed.

And then when Andy comes back with the missing money,

we can start over again

and I can even, uh, layer a little extra on top for you,

free of charge.

MAN: Andy's in Australia?

Um, yeah, yeah. A small town called Bidgeegud, yeah.

But, look, he'll come through. I promise.

But, look, I need you to place the money

and then tell the client that everything's taken care of,

otherwise if my manager files that SAR...

(INHALES SHARPLY)

(SIGHS)

I'll report it to them and see what they say.

Ah. Thank you. Thank you.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC)

(CROWS CAW)

(CICADAS DRONE)

CASSIE: Andy, we've been searching for hours.

He built a bunker! I know he built a bunker.

Well, I can't think when I'm hungry,

so, why don't we go to Coolawah,

pick up something to eat and figure it out?

- Do you have a charger in here? - Oh, no! Wait!

Who...

Who are you?

Andy, I can explain.

- Who do you work for? - Nobody.

Look, if you just let me talk...

You've been bugging the whole town?

What the fuck is going on?

I'm making a true crime podcast.

I'm a journalist.

Well, I got fired, but if you just let me...

You've been lying to me the entire time

for a podcast?!

I was gonna tell you. I was just waiting for the right time.

When was the right time?

Was there a specific episode where you were gonna reveal it?

Did I just ruin that for you? I'm so sorry.

All that stuff you told me yesterday,

that was never gonna see the light of day.

That stuff about

the international money laundering scheme?

That's just peripheral to you?!

I was never gonna broadcast it anywhere.

It was just research.

Research that could put me in jail.

I'm trying to help you avoid jail.

How?! By turning my life into a piece of entertainment?

By finding whoever killed your dad and getting your money back.

Bullshit. You're in this for you.

And you're not?

Well, gambling on illegal stock tips -

was that for the greater good, was it?

(SIGHS)

(EXHALES)

I trusted you.

Wait.

(ANDY SLAMS DOOR)

CASSIE: You still can.

Andy!

Where are you going? You can't walk back to town.

I'll hitch.

Don't you know that's dangerous?

It's 48 degrees!

I don't even know what that number means!

(MOODY ALTERNATIVE ROCK)

(ZIPPER BUZZES)

(INDISTINCT CONVERSATION)

This tip-off, who'd it come from?

A very reliable anonymous source.

And the evidence?

Solid as a rock.

You know, when you first came up here, Geraldine,

I had my doubts.

Oh.

I mean, that tattoo you've got

with a frog eating a baby, is it?

I... That...

But then you've shown yourself

to be dedicated and reliable,

and a big part of that is from winning the trust of the locals.

That's no easy accomplishment.

I respect that.

You... Oh. Uh, thank you...

So, I'll tell you what,

you turn this little tip-off into a murder conviction...

Mm?

...and I'll see to it

that this job becomes yours

once I move on next month.

Then this whole region will be your jurisdiction.

That would... That... that would...

I... That'd be an honour, sir.

I'd... be honoured.

Well...

...go pick the fucker up.

- Get up. - Oh, yeah, shit, OK.

- Thank you, sir. - Thank you so much, sir.

- You don't have to bow. - No bowing.

GERALDINE ON RECORDING: Like hell!

I am not going into your confessional.

JIMMY ON RECORDING: Do you know why this is important?

GERALDINE: No, Jimmy. Why is it so important?

JIMMY: Because this is my confession.

With the eyes of God upon me...

...I can only impart onto thee truth.

Did you kill Hugo?

What? Hell, no! It wasn't me.

Then how is this your bloody confession?

Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned.

OK, get on with it.

JIMMY: In the beginning, there was a boy.

Oh, bloody hell! 25 words or less, please!

If you keep interrupting, this is only gonna take longer.

In the beginning, there was a boy.

Now, this young fella was brilliant at school.

His future was bright

and the whole world was laid before him.

(SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC)

So, what were you and Cassie doing out here anyway?

It's stupid.

(CHUCKLES) Lot of stupid out here, mate.

When I was a kid, my...

...Hugo, uh, built a bunker.

Preparation for the end of the world.

But the end of the world never came,

but it, uh, turned into this place

that he could escape to, you know?

Somewhere he could... he could hide his secrets,

bury his treasure, you know, his... his past.

When Jimmy mentioned a... a secret bunker,

we thought we'd go out and look for it.

Figured maybe it'd be

where Hugo did all the UFO tours,

but... I don't know.

Yeah? I do.

Mate, there's nothing secret about it.

Everyone knows about Hugo's bunker.

Take you there, if you want.

Really?

Thing is... Cedric's bunker now, right?

Hugo lost it in a bet, the silly bugger.

What was the bet about?

Dunno. I can't even remember anymore.

All I know is that Hugo never forgave him.

For winning a bet?

Nah, nah, for actually holding him to it, you know?

(SIGHS) Took us ages to build the bloody thing.

(UNSETTLING MUSIC)

- (LIGHTER FLICKS) - (DRAMATIC CHORD)

JIMMY ON RECORDING: But secretly,

the boy, he was a tortured soul,

and the truth about his feelings, he kept within.

Over time, these feelings festered and twisted

into thoughts of... of heinous violence

towards the man he believed had wronged him.

GERALDINE ON RECORDING: Jimmy, I'm a patient woman,

but I reckon the good Lord above's

probably got other stuff to do, so bottle the egg, mate.

And so, one dark evening,

he lured this man deep into the bush...

...and took a knife to him.

He cut his throat from ear to ear.

He hacked his victim to pieces and left him for the wild dogs.

Then our young fella went on the run.

Eventually, he finds himself surrounded on a cliff's edge.

Now he's got a choice.

He can jump or he can face up to what he's done.

He didn't jump.

He did 25 years for murder.

Uh, where are we going?

Scenic route.

Why is that? You in a rush?

No, I just, uh... Urgent call to make.

Uh, you can actually just drop me right over here.

I don't wanna be any trouble.

Nah, you're no trouble for me, mate.

(UNEASY MUSIC)

JIMMY: Once he was released, he vowed to start over,

fully repentant.

He came all the way here to Bidgeegud

and, today, a murderer lives amongst us.

But as the Book of Job tells us,

you can run, but you can't hide.

Sooner or later, someone was bound to find out.

And...

Well, that was my fault.

I just never thought he'd kill again.

Right, I'm gonna count to three.

After that, I'm booking you with obstruction of justice.

(CICADAS DRONE)

Why are we stopping?

(BRAKES SQUEAK)

(UNSETTLING MUSIC)

ANDY: Uh...

Bunker's just over there, mate.

When you're done,

caravan park's just 200 metres away

through those bushes.

And don't forget what I said.

If you need somewhere to crash,

Moz and I would love to have you, OK?

No worries.

I'll very much keep that in mind. Thank you.

He hears my confession, gets pissed and then he blabs.

He told Hugo my secret, now he's told you too.

No, he didn't tell me anything.

That's why Jimmy ran away.

(CHUCKLES) Bloody coward.

And Hugo tried to blackmail me

to get his bloody bunker back.

All this trouble

over nothing more than a hole in the dirt.

(GERALDINE BANGS ON DOOR)

Yes. I killed my father.

- (BLADE RINGS) - Back!

Stay back.

Listen, I don't care what you did, who you killed,

what kind of crazy shit lives in your past.

Just give me the money and I'm gone.

What money?

You know what money.

Hugo's money!

I know nothing about any money,

but if you're anything like your father,

I know you can't be trusted.

You'll tell everybody,

reveal my past,

ruin my future

like he was going to do.

Well, I wouldn't let him blackmail me
