(MURMURING)

(SIGHS)

CORMACK: What?

I gave these to her.

This seems VERY strange.

Well, it's not a selfie,
that's for sure.

No, look at her face.
I don't think
she knew this was being taken.

But it was in her backpack,

so it must have
meant something to her.

Hey, what's 'sapphire'?

It was written on that flyer.

It could be Sapphire Beach.

We went there one year
with Zoe's family, Cody and me.

It was the perfect holiday.

- Did you go there often?
- Nah, it's too far away.

It was the last hoorah
before Seb was born,

and then, between the baby
and the business,

there just wasn't much time
for holidays anymore.

Well, it's a long shot,

but a lead is a lead.

Send a photo of Zoe
to the Sapphire Beach cops.

- OK.
- Thank you.

If Zoe went back there,
I mean...

maybe she's been living on the
coast this whole time, right?

Or maybe it's the name
of an album she liked,

or a redhead stripper
that she owed money to.

That last one is oddly specific.

Just don't get your hopes up.

SAM: Case 1908, in relation
to missing person Zoe Jacobs.

WOMAN: Oh, yeah?

SAM: I've got the images back
from the artist

of what she might look like now.

WOMAN: Zoe Jacobs?

SAM: Zoe Jacobs, that's right.

I've just sent the images
through to you now.

WOMAN: Yeah, got them.

Oh, I don't
recognise her myself,

but I'll ask around.

Sapphire's a small place.

If your girl's here,
we'll find her.

Thanks.

CORMACK: Alright,
you little firebug,

you're taking the lead
on this one.

SAM: What?

You've got history with a bloke.
Use it.

SAM: Brad, when did you
last see Zoe?

A few days after
she torched my ute.

I saw her with her boyfriend
out the front of a bottle shop.

Zoe and Sean
had broken up by then.

Well, it didn't look like it.

They were all over each other.

Why do you think that
Zoe torched your ute?

Because Cody spun her
a bunch of lies.

I was good to Mandy.

Hey, I gave her a home
and I looked after her kids.

So you never... hit Mandy?

Yeah, Mandy and I had
a passionate relationship.

And were you 'passionate'
after Zoe trashed your ute?

I mean, that was
your livelihood, right?

- What's with Lurch over here?
- Don't worry about him.
Answer the question.

BRAD: Yeah. You know what?
I was angry.

She set me back years.

- Any chance you tried to
call in that debt?
- What?

Zoe withdrew 25 grand from her
account when she disappeared.

You didn't help her
with that, did you?

No. Wish I had, though.

Helmet on, mate.

OK, Brad, for the record,

where were you
the night that Zoe disappeared?

(LAUGHS) How am I supposed
to remember that?
That was 20 years ago.

It was three weeks, to the date,
after we buried Cody,
if that's any help.

I would have been
at home with Mandy, then.

Other than work, we didn't
leave the house for a month.

OK. We'll speak to Mandy,
see if she can confirm that.

Huh.

Nice chat.

I'm having contractions!
I'm having...

NADJA: OK.

OK, OK, OK, OK. Sit.

- What do they feel like?
- Cramps, like period cramps.

Alright. Well, have you been
drinking enough water?

- I don't know.
- Oh, my God. Of course.

- There you go.
- Thank you.

It's probably just
Braxton Hicks contractions.

They are like practice run -
nothing to worry about.

- Just...
- Mmm...

Mm!

Oh.

(LAUGHS)

Oh...

Does your mum
know about the baby?

Um...

No.

Well...
Maybe you should call her.

She'll be worried about you.

- OK...
- I feel OK now.

OK Well, keep hydrating.

It will help
with the cramps, yeah?

Thanks.

Is there any update
on that shipment?

Waiting on pest control.

It's treated fucking timber!

(DING!)

Ugh! Do you think
you could find me an EA

who doesn't ask
stupid questions?

What are you doing?

We're at home.

Please, not another lecture
on work-life balance.

The new investigation -
did you want to talk about it?

I didn't think so.

Which means you can stop
behaving like a child.

I'm sorry. I've been difficult.

How can I make it up to you?

You can buy Seb
a birthday present.

He's obsessed with vinyl
at the moment.

OK.

I'll have Jessie
pick something up later.

No, I want YOU,

not your EA, not me, YOU...

...to go and pick some records
for your son.

I love you.

Sorry.

Leo's having a mini meltdown.

That's fine. Conference
doesn't start till 11.

How's he holding up?

These delays
are costing us a fortune.

I meant the investigation.

Um... It's not easy.

I can imagine.

Have you noticed that
the younger women

are wearing less lipstick
these days?

- In the office?
- I think I have noticed that.

Right.

So, what's the new evidence?

- The police won't tell us.
- Oh.

Do they think she's alive?

We don't know.

Well, who's in charge?

At least I can make sure it's
someone competent this time.

A Detective Cormack,
from the Cold Case Unit.

- He's experienced.
- Good.

That sex chef obviously knew
more than he was letting on.

Have you been to his restaurant?

No. On principle.

I mean, Sean would kill me
for saying this,

but I can understand
why Zoe couldn't resist him.

Zoe had no experience
of a man like him.

- He targeted her.
- Absolutely.

It was totally inappropriate.

You look great.

Better than any of the men
in your party.

That's a pretty low bar.
(BOTH LAUGH)

Just, um, keep me in the loop
about the investigation, OK?

(STARTS ENGINE)

Where are you going, young lady?

(LINE RINGS)

- SAM: Hello.
- Hey.

Zoe came to Xanadu
the night she went missing.

So, she must have
come to see Joseph.

But Joseph's lawyer's stalling,

so I reckon we talk to Melody.

- Set it up.
- OK, I'm on it.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Mum's pretending like
she's shocked

that she still fits into
that dress

that she bought
before she had Seb.

- (CHAMPAGNE CORK POPS)
- She looks good.

Honestly, my family's a reality
show waiting to happen.

Why is Sean here?

He's helping restructure
the company's finances.

Dad says he's a savant
with the tax code.

Wow, so hot.

What? He's giving me
Patrick Bateman vibes.

(LAUGHS) Harsh.

Alright, quiet please.

- Here we go.
- Bit of shush, shush.

Thank you for joining us
on this special day.

Now, you're all here because...

- Not because the booze is free.
- (LAUGHTER)

And because you've all helped us
land our biggest job yet.

Together, we're going to
build Mont Vista Estate.

(CHEERING)

Now, there are some people
that need special thanks.

Our amazing mayor,
Julie Cosgrove.

A true champion
of small business.
Thank you, Julie.

Well, it's not that small, Leo.
It's just a little cold.

(LAUGHTER)

And we have to thank
our design team,

all the subbies
that are coming on board,

and to my incredible
project manager, Gita.

(APPLAUSE)

Less talk, more drinks!
Let's get this party started.

(CHEERING)

Alex, he asked me out again.

Nice.

You said yes, right?

Can you cover for me
on Saturday night?

Ever since Cody,

my parents have turned into
security guards.

Yeah, nothing would
make me happier

than helping you
disappoint Jesus.

Girls, can you help me collect
all the empty glasses, please?

- Yes.
- Thank you.

Darling...

Smile, please, please.

Can you just smile?

It's a very important day
for your father. Please?

You guys don't even care that
it's where Cody died, do you?

Don't you think
it's a bit gross,

celebrating the fact that
he was made homeless

so some arsehole can buy
their third investment property?

None of them give a shit.

It's like Cody never existed.

That development is dodgy,
you know?

Do you not listen to
Freddie's Farm Show on Mondays.

- No. Sounds riveting.
- No? (LAUGHS) OK.

So, apparently, people have
been lobbying for, like, years

to extend
the bush corridor, right?

Then the land
is suddenly rezoned

from rural to residential,

goes from being worth nothing
to millions, overnight.

Fuck this place.

Yeah.

You OK?

Look, it's still raw.

Nothing's going to really help
except time.

Come here.

You make me forget.

Are you sure?

(BOTH BREATHE HEAVILY)

ZOE: Mmm. It looks better
without the leggings.

Besides, they're so awkward
to take off.

It's just never sexy.

Who said I was taking them off?
It's our first real date.

He is pretty hot.

Is your mum smoking?

Yeah, her secret shame.

She's a grown woman
but she has to sneak around.

(LAUGHS)

I don't even know
why I'm studying law, sometimes.

As soon as I graduate,
I'm going to have to start
popping out babies,

and I'm already sneaking around
like Mum.

- I should just cancel tonight.
- Samara...

Life's too short.

That's better.

SAM: That would be terrible.

- (BOTH LAUGH)
(HORN HONKS)

There he is.

Jesus. He's even hotter
than I remember.

I bet you're glad
you took those leggings off.

Thank you for the push.

Have fun.

Don't forget, Mum will
definitely call tonight.

Just tell her
I went to bed early.

Got it. Go. Go!

- Ready?
- Ready.

Thank you.

What do you want?

I want you to pay for
what you've done.

I don't know what
you're talking about.

- Can I get to my car?
- No, you can't.

OK, you owe me 20 grand.

I wasn't insured,
and I lost everything.

- I didn't...
- I fucking saw you!

OK, don't fucking lie to me.

You got that?

I don't have that kind of money.

Yeah? Alright.

Well, how about
I go see Samara instead, huh?

I bet she was driving.
I know where she lives.

No, Sam had
nothing to do with it, Brad.

I can pay you.

I get real money on my 21st.

You think I'm an idiot?

It's next Saturday. I promise.
I get my inheritance.

Just leave Sam alone.

You've got one chance
to make this right, OK?

I'll see you
on your fucking birthday.

Hmm?

(MAN AND WOMAN LAUGH)

(BOTH BREATHE HEAVILY)

(HEAVY BREATHING CONTINUES)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER
AND LAUGHTER)

- (DING, DONG!)
- Hello.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER
AND LAUGHTER)

(DING, DONG!)

- Hi, how are you going?
- (INDISTINCT CHATTER)

SEAN: It's alright,
it's alright.

That's great.

MAN: Alright, I think
the guy driving gets to choose.

Yeah, like, fuck youse.
I think tequila is it.

Beers, obviously.

Are you stalking me?

Maybe.

What are you guys up to?

Grabbing some roadies.

Head up to the coast.
Do you want to come?

I want to go home with you.

Alright, Jane Fonda?

Can you do the sprinkler?

Detective Cormack.

Yeah. Hey.

Tai Chi.

My therapist recommends it
for stress management.

Right.

Don't look like you've got much
to stress about, to be honest.

Oh, except, maybe...

being 44
and living with your mum.

(LAUGHS) It's temporary.

While my place
is being reno'd.

So, um, how can I help you?

I'd like you to tell me
about you and Zoe.

Zoe was special.

Whenever I was with her,

it seemed like nothing else
really mattered.

- Pretty serious, was it?
- Yeah, it was for me.

Yeah, right. Then
why'd you break up with her?

I fucked it up.

I got scared.

Said I couldn't commit.

So you ended it,

but you repeatedly
called the radio station...

..and dedicated songs to her.

I call that a classic case...

of mixed messaging.

Yeah, that was a bit tragic.

It took us a couple of goes
to cut the cord, that's all.

I wasn't on the scene anymore
when she disappeared.

But you were on the scene
at her 21st birthday, right?

Did you see anything unusual?

I suppose
it doesn't matter anymore,

but before I left,

I saw Nadja and Will
in the street, kissing.

And I always wondered

whether maybe Zoe knew,
and that's why she took off.

We don't know she took off.

We have to hope, though.

Thank you for your time.

Let's talk about
financial abuse.

Financial abuse
can come in many forms -

hiding assets, making divorce
proceedings more expensive.

If one partner, for example,
is accumulating superannuation,

the partner that is
at home raising the kids

is, in fact,
contributing to that super.

If you have
any queries or questions,

please put them in the comments.

LEO: No, shift that to Friday

and set up a meeting
with the architect.

Also, I want to get
something nice for Gita.

It's our anniversary coming up.

No, no, no, bigger.
I was thinking Italy or...

Anyway, something.
Just find me some options.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Um, I've got to go, Jess.

Hi.

Hi, Leo.

- We'll meet you up
at the bus stop.
- Yeah.

Come on.

Vinyls, huh?

You having a midlife crisis
or something?

No, these are for Seb.

It's his birthday next week.

Yeah, I know
when his birthday is.

It's not my fault
he stopped talking to you.

Did you encourage him
to start again?

It's been almost a year.

Seb's an adult.

He can make his own decisions.

Nadja, Nadja...

You OK?

Why do you think
she went out there?

Hopefully Melody can shed
some light on that one.

I texted you her address.
She lives in Brisbane now.

And Mandy?

No luck there.

She's dropped
completely off the grid.

Well, you're a cop.

Find her.

We'll need to
confirm Brad's alibi.

Yes, boss.

WOMAN: Take a look
at the samples.

The client has
this whole Bauhaus fetish

that we need to embrace.

Yeah, OK.
Dan, I'll call you back.

Wow. Look at this joint, huh?
La-di-da.

Detective Cormack.

Um, your assistant,
she buzzed me in.

Melody Forster.

Joey told me the witch hunt's
been reopened.

So you're still friends?

Hm. I'm godmother to his kids.

So...

You told detectives
you and Joey...

were together
the night of Zoe's 21st.

We were.

Why can't you leave him alone?

He had nothing to do with
her taking off.

They fucked a few times.
End of story.

That's funny,
because Joseph claims that

he and Zoe never slept together.

Probably because he knew
what you guys would think.

The cops were pretty quick
to slut-shame me.

Hey, don't blame me.
I wasn't there.

Joey didn't do anything wrong.

So you and him
were together all night?

I passed out at 1am.

When I woke up, he wasn't there.

When he came back, he said
he'd been swimming in the dam.

So he could have been away
for hours.

I guess.

But we were pretty fucked up,
so he couldn't have gone far.

Right.

I'd like your permission
to search Xanadu.

(LAUGHS) It's not mine.

I sold it years ago.

Really? Why'd you sell it?

- Somebody made me an offer.
- Who?

I don't know.

I don't remember, OK?

Get my accountant to
contact you with the deets.

That'd be good. Thank you.

Hey.

No news yet. Sorry.

Just wanted to see
how you're doing.

- I'm fine. How are you?
- Yeah, fine.

What's on your mind?

Um...

When you were looking for Zoe,

did you ever go out
to Sapphire Beach?

Remember we had that
great holiday there?

Yeah. It was an amazing summer.

Yeah, she was just
so happy there,

I wondered if maybe
she went back there.

- Have you had another call?
- No, no, not yet.

Yeah, there was one thing.

Not Sapphire, but close,
in Coffs Harbour.

There was a sighting of Zoe,
back in 2005.

Someone called the hotline.

- Did you go looking?
- Of course I did.

But the police
handled the hotline

and they wouldn't give me
any details,

so I was searching blind.

Yeah. But they thought
it was credible.

OK. Thanks.

Jimmy!

I thought it would be safer
to visit you here

than at your place.

MAN: Detective.

I'm not giving up on Richie.

And I'm not giving up
on you either.

I know you've got your doubts,

but I swear to God
he's out there somewhere.

I don't think I can
find him without you, Jimmy.

Please, son.

Don't give up on him.

(INHALES DEEPLY)

Cormack.

Hey.

- Forensics on the Jacobs case
came in.
- Right.

They lifted prints off the bag
of ecstasy found in Zoe's pack.

And they got a match on them.

Really?

Joseph Rua.

Zoe went out there to see him
that night at Xanadu.

Mm-hm.

I need a warrant
to search the property.

Why didn't they do it in '03?

- Melody wouldn't
give them permission.
- Jeez...

And then they also
didn't have reasonable grounds

to force a search.

And now we do.

Thank you.

OK.

(SHARP POPPING SOUNDS)

(INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER)

WILL: OK.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Nadja, hey.

Hi. What are you doing here?

I'm just going through
my statement from 2003.

- Oh.
- You?

- Same. Yeah.
- Yeah.

Have they told you anything?

No. Just that
they've found new evidence.

I tried calling you.

I've been busy.

I just heard that you were
going through some hard times

and I want to help.

I have an investment property
on the coast

and you can live in there
for as long as you need. OK?

I'm not a charity case.

I know, but we're family.

Oh. And were we family, Will,

when you watched Leo

screw me out of
my share of family business?

Mm.

You don't care about me.

You just feel guilty.

(MUSIC PLAYS, LOUD CHATTER)

(INDISTINCT)

Thanks, Rocket.

(INDISTINCT)

(INDISTINCT CHATTER, CLINKING)

- You sure?
- Yep.

(INDISTINCT)

So, how was the date?

The wine was good.

Yeah, it looked
like he needed it.

Old protein-shake dude
barely took a breath, did he?

Hey, Rocket, can I please
get the Master of Psychology
a drink?

No, I shouldn't.

You're a patient.

Come on, one more drink
won't hurt.

Another red wine
for the lady, please.

Hey.

So...

do you come here often?

Rocket is my emergency contact.

Well, that's not depressing
at all.

Hey! You know me.

Family members
are a bit thin on the ground.

How about you?

How's your case going?
The missing girl.

Look, I know you're used to
asking the questions,

but I want to know about you.

Fire away, Sigmund.

Right, then. You are in trouble.

OK, then.

I've never had
a police escort home before.

Oh!

You didn't have to do this.

Well, if I had known
how far it was,

maybe I would have reconsidered.

This is me.

White picket fence and all.

Yeah, I grew up here
with my grandma.

You were raised by your grandma?

Since I was five.

What about your parents?

I'd rather not talk about it.

OK.

Maybe another time.

- Thanks for the drinks.
- My pleasure.

Night-night.

(PHONE RINGS)

Senior Constable
Samara Kahlil.

WOMAN: Kahlil, it's
Sergeant Briar, Sapphire Beach.

I think I might have
something for you.

Your girl had a tattoo
on her neck, didn't she?

(INHALES AND EXHALES)

(SHUTTER CLICKS)

(SHUTTER CLICKS)

(SHUTTER CLICKS)

What are you doing?

You are so cute when you sleep.

Please don't.

OK.

Um...

Do you want to...
go get breakfast?

Um... I should go.

(HERE IS GONE
BY GOO GOO DOLLS PLAYS)

Have you been
calling the radio station?

Did you put a rose in my car?

Why the fuck would you do that?

Because you like roses.

Not like that.

(TURNS MUSIC OFF)

Zoe. Zoe, Zoe.
Just talk to me, OK?

Wh... What are you doing?

What I should have done
last night,

getting the hell away from you.

Shit.

- Sam...
- Where have you been?

- Sam, I'm so sorry.
- Samara!

Go, please.

You forgot, didn't you?

I'm so sorry.
I promise I can explain.

Really, I can explain
everything.

Believe me, I understand.
They don't make it easy on us,
do they?

- Mm.
- It's OK.

Samara!

(INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER)

Hey.

What are you hoping to find?

Hopefully, nothing.

So, I spoke to
the Sapphire Beach Police
last night.

Apparently, someone saw Zoe
up there years ago.

They'd seen the news.
They'd recognised her tattoo.

OK, I know it
sounds a bit crazy,

but you said we need to
follow every lead, right?

Yeah.

Do what you need to do, OK?

MAN: (OVER RADIO) DS Cormack.

Yeah, go ahead.

MAN: Yeah, we've got a bit of
an issue here at the perimeter.

(SIGHS)

(PHONE RINGS)

Thanks.

Hey.

I could never get them
to search this place.

What do you know
that they didn't?

There's evidence that
Zoe came here

the night she disappeared.

I should have let him
come to the party.

It's my fault she came here.

Look, we don't
know anything yet.

This is just...

It's part of the process.

- It's my fault.
- Hey...

Go on, go home, alright?

I'll give you a call as...

..as soon as I hear anything.

We're conducting
a search of Xanadu,

and I wanted you
to hear it from me.

You won't find anything.

I really, really hope
you're right.

Someone told me that
you and Will, um...

..may have been involved,
before Zoe's disappearance.

Is that true?

How is that... Wha...

OK, fine.
Yeah, he had a crush on me.

But nothing ever happened.

Felt good to be wanted.

What about Gita and Leo?

When did
their relationship start?

Yeah, very good question.
I don't know.

Whilst I was looking for Zoe,

Gita was there. I wasn't.

Did, um, Leo get
full custody of Seb?

Um, we...

We shared custody.

For a while.

And then when Seb was older,

he asked to stay with Leo.

Yeah, and Gita.

Yeah, 'cause they
lived in a nice house.

My house.

And I was living in
a shitty flat.

And Seb felt that, um...

..I abandoned him
when he was little.

He was right.

I mean, I was so... Just...

..looking for Zoe, I...

I lost sight of him. So...

Just...

HAZEL: Hey, it's Hazel.

The hard copy of
Richard Vogel's file

is at
the Department of Corrections
office in Kenmore.

Basement archive room.

Good luck.

We should call it for the night.

Yeah.

Wrap it up, guys.

We start again at 0600.

The froggies will
be on deck tomorrow.

Alright.
I'll see you first thing.

(ENGINE STARTS)

Oh, my God, oh, my God.

(LINE RINGS)

Zoe?

I know it's you.

I... I don't know
why you ran away

all those years ago, but...

I can...

I can help you now.

Please, Zoe.

Please.

Let me help you.

(BREATHING OVER PHONE)

Whatever it is
that you're afraid of...

I can protect you.

I know that you've come back.

I had this number traced,
and I know that you...

(CALL ENDS)

(PHONE BUZZES)

(BUZZING STOPS)

(INHALES)

(PHONE RINGS)

Yeah?

Khalil, sorry to wake you,

but Cormack wasn't answering.

The search team found something.

- MAN: Sergeant?
- Yep.
