I'm getting on a boat, Tone. Off Horne Island. I'm going to South America. I'm getting out. South America? Stupid I thought you'd be glad to get rid of me. You're so stupid! You don't have to leave the country. You prick. Can I talk to them? No. I'm not teaching them to lie to the cops, Noel. That part of our life's over. You know, when I was little, Dad used to say to me 'You gotta do the necessary, son. That thing that no-one else is up for. ' You and the kids have paid the price. I'm sorry, sweetheart. Your timing's ratshit. And you look ridiculous, by the way. I stole these off a balcony. How about that, eh? Me, snowdropping. You know, I wrote you a poem. You did? I did. So where is it? It's on my cell wall. That'd be right. Come with me. I'll see. Yeah? You took your time. Noel? It's me. Wake up, ya ***' ***. Noel! Oh, ***, man! Where are you? Tell Mum to call me back on this number, alright? Give her a prepaid phone. Yeah, sure. Yeah. It's Mum. I'll call you back. Noel. Hey. You alright, my boy? I'm not doing the time, Mum. Sorry. But Natasha's working on it. She's out. She's going back to Melbourne. Why? You'd better talk to Dad about that. Have you talked to him? He's alright, isn't he? I haven't been talking to him, but well, he's coming good. I'm getting out, Mum. I need some money. How much? Don't know. About 300K. We don't have it, love. Lola cleaned us out. And we don't know where Marou is either. I don't know what's going on. Look, it's not for me, OK? It's for Toni and the kids. I think she wants to come. Look, don't worry about it. Forget it. I'm sorry. No. I'll get it. I'll get it for you, my boy. How much have your brothers told you about all this? What we do? Not much. Not much, or nothing? Some. Oh, look. Turtle eggs. Dig 'em out, huh? I'll go get something to put em in. You didn't ask me what was in the package. Do you want to know? I don't know. Take a word of advice don't go into this thinking you can change Gary. That's a road to heartbreak. Hey, look, there's no one around. Let's get it, man. Let's go for it. Oh, man, this is the bomb. Jump in, bala, quick. I'll drive. Hey, kaikai as well! Give it here, bala! I'm starving! Hey, no way. My boat, my food. Hey! Hey! That's our boat! ***! Go, go, go! ***, it won't start!

I can walk unaided, thanks all the same. They said you should use this, at least for the next couple of weeks. How am I expected to hit someone with this? Get me something with more weight to it. So, where's Marou? We haven't seen him since last night, and he won't pick up his mobile. I showed him the footage when Lola, you know We didn't know if Lola was I'm asking her. Dad. I wanted to be sure that Marou didn't know anything, even after the fact. I thought that if I dropped it all in his lap, either he'll deal with it or he won't. Either way, we'd know. It was stupid. I should have trusted him. Now I think I've *** everything. Vince told me not to. No, no, no, no, you did the right thing. No, it was smart. He'll be back. And for the record, there's only one architect of this *** shambles. That's me. I'm going into the croc farm tomorrow. What for? We've got orders and we need the money. Ha! I never thought I'd hear them words again. Yeah. It's me. Call you back? Harry? Hi, love. You alright? Yeah, yeah. Fully fit. How's Noel? I hear you talked to him up there. He sounds alright. I'm worried. The DCs will be everywhere. I know, I know. I'm sorting that out, love. Listen, it's my fault that Noel's done a bolt. I I I know. I know what happened. Marou's gone. Oh, he'll be alright. He's doing a bit of business. With Lola. He'll be right, love. I know his heart. You're too *** him. Yeah. I've made a lot of mistakes. Call me when you hear something. Listen, Kitty, I think we should talk First things first, Harry. About us. Cow. You didn't tell him about the gear? She's a plucky little thing. Isn't she? The hunt continues for a prisoner who escaped from an ESB van this morning while being transported from Lotus Glen to Stuart Creek Correctional Centre. The man has been charged with recklessly causing death when he used a rocket launcher against a well-known motorcycle clubhouse. He is Noel Jordan Montebello, and a police spokesman this morning warned that he is considered extremely dangerous. I need to stress that anyone who sees this person or who recognises this person should contact police immediately, and on no account should he be approached. Take the jacket off. Drop the pants. *** off. Hello, Harry. Virgil! Ah. This place is a bit of a comedown, isn't it? You ought to see what's going up in its place. It's like the *** Playboy mansion. You'll love it, Harry. Jesus, when I organise a meeting it's in a restaurant or some *** thing. Don't I even get a drink? Not since your boy put a rocket through our front door. You did shoot me in the head. I'm sorry? Says who? Oh, Noel? We tried to tell him it wasn't us, Harry, but he's a ***. He's out of prison. Yeah, we heard. They tried to knock him. He couldn't stay there. He's leaving the country. You'll never see him again. Yes we will, Harry. We had a deal, he broke it. I hope he takes his medicine. He's my son. And I'm asking. You're asking. I'm over a barrel. That doesn't happen very often. So, name your price. I've got pretty much everything I want, Harry. Oh, except maybe the title to your house. What about that? You want my house? Alright. What do I look like, a ***' real estate agent? Once upon a time, you could have killed me, Harry. You didn't. You showed better judgement, something that Noel hasn't got. Now you're walking out of here today in one piece, and as far as I'm concerned, after that, the debt's paid. But we catch up with Noel Well, he's a dead man, Harry. That's just the way it is. Hey. Heard say you boys have got a boat for sale. A big new stinger. Maybe. You got it or not? Yeah. For the right price. What is the price? $10,000. *** off. Come on, man, it's brand-new. Big Yamaha motor, sixty horses at least. It flies, man. OK. $5,000. Come on, man. Purrs like a kitten. Where's it at? This one here. $5,000, huh? Why are you selling it? What about the rest? Rest of what? The money, from the package you sold. There is no money. We just got the boat. OK. $5,000? No! Argh! What? ***, man! What are you doing? We don't know about a package. You got three days to get that package, or the money you owe us. You bury it on this beach, right here. Next to that tree. If you don't I'll come and find you. I'll come and find you and your family. Better dump this one, eh? Meet you back at Daru. Now Marge is, believe it or not, is pushing 1,400 pounds. She's been known to bite through a truck tyre when she's really angry. Now, saltwater crocodiles have such dreadful Hi, hey George. Oi, stranger. Who goes there? Oh, hey. Sorry. That's alright. You OK? I heard about your brother. I don't really want to talk about it. Let me introduce you to a friend of mine. Here we are. This is Trevor. Say 'hello', Trevor. Sex goddess! Sex goddess! What have you done? Don't look at me. That's that's a disinterested opinion. In fact I think he might be elaborating in a few days. Don't you dare! Why not then? It's only the truth. Well there, now. You knew what to do all along, didn't you? Yeah? Squid, it's me. Hey, bala. Ten o'clock tomorrow, yeah? At the junction. Yeah, no worries, bro. I'll see you there, bala. Cool, man. I'm not packing. What the *** were you thinking? Or were you going to bite me to death, were you? Huh? Were you? Argh! Argh! ***! Argh! Get yourself to casualty. I'm in a generous mood. Hi. Hi. What's up? Oh, nothing. I just didn't know who it was. I thought you were working down by the river. Batteries. Flat as a ***. I forgot to take the spares. You got a problem? No, no, um, it's just What the *** is that? It's alright. Jesus! Help me, God! It's not dangerous. Get the *** thing off me! It's alright. Relax. Just Come on. They're harmless. They're really timid. What's this? Why are these snakes in these boxes? We're selling them. To who? Japan. Osaka. There's a pet shop there. Pet shop? A back-room in a pet shop, really. Special clientele. Jesus. You're telling me you export native animals? You can't tell anyone what you've seen. Or be cut down in a hail of bullets at the traffic lights, you mean? Joel, you have to take this seriously. My family are serious. I'm not stupid, you know. I just thought I just thought you were different. I don't do what they do. I don't even know about most of it. This this is just a few stupid rules. It's not like it's wrong. You're pulling out the fertile adults and interfering with the whole cycle. Says a man who runs away from stick insects. *** off. Where are you going? To finish my shift. Joel I-I I won't tell my family about this. Very kind of you. Oh, come on! I've never hidden anything from them. OK. I'm sorry. He wanted a package. Adi and Lolo didn't know about a package. Then I heard the Montebellos were looking for a stinger. And I thought, 'This is Montebello business. ' So I told my nephew not to run. But to come here and tell. That's my story. Did you see a package in the boat? Did you see a basket for a picnic, huh? You see a basket, you tell 'em. He saw it. Did you look inside that basket? What happened to it? Was the basket in the boat when you ran away from the man? Does the man have my basket? Bridget. Get your brothers come by. Um, haircut. Really close. Big guy, maybe 30. Yeah, I don't think it was Yeak Mapo. He would have known it wasn't us. Yeah, nah, that's true. Is that all you got to say, fellas? This kid, his cousin, died in your place. They thought it was one of you ***. Don't you feel a bit responsible, hmm? Yeah, but it's not our fault. You guys took the gear off us. What was I supposed to do? You're lucky we didn't take your *** heads off at the same time! Gary! Language. I'm sorry, Mum. Don't make me swear in front of Mum, alright? Yeah, sorry, Gary. Sorry, Missus. Yeah, sorry, Missus. And? Hey, yeah, sorry, man. About your cousin. Yeah. Sorry, um Adi. Adi. Sorry, bro. So, Yeak Mapo's supplier is Kingsten. Do we know what he looks like? Yeah, flashy dresser. The whole gangster thing going. Yeah, I think that's him. He was fully flash, hey? So if Kingsten's got the stinger, he'll take it up the Fly River. That's where his people are. Then that's where we go. You're kiddin' me. Tell me this isn't it. What do you want? It's clean. It's a bloody shitbox. It's probably not even roadworthy. What happens if we get pulled up by the cops? Who's gonna pull up two blackfellas in a shitbox like this? If it was a Ferrari, then you would have issues, eh? What's wrong with you? Gotta change your haircut, eh? The colour doesn't even match. It's a disguise, ***! Get in the car. Can we talk about Marou? Yeah. Have you heard anything? No-one's seen him. Sutherland says he hasn't shown up on any speed cameras. He might be on security footage somewhere, but we need a case number, location, ***. Yeah. I rang his old footy mates, but He will turn up, love. We need to widen the net. We can't. We're not getting anywhere. If our people find out that two boys have gone AWOL, we're over. Disunity is death. The vultures are circling as it is. What if I don't care? You do. That's why you've set him this little task. I was wrong. No, you weren't. That idea - it was diamond. Cold, hard, clear. When the pressure's on, you stay clear. It's a gift. You're the one I should have put in charge in the first place, aren't you? Oh, ***. You're looking deadly there, bro. It's the *** DCs. Yeah. In behind me. Yeah, they're just checking out a map. They'll go in a minute. Relax. You're in disguise. What's wrong with it? You're kidding me. Sorry, mate. I was just looking at your dreadlocks. How do you keep 'em clean? Oh, just some soap, you know. Or shampoo. As long as there's no fragrance. Yeah, me daughter wants me to get 'em for her, but it looked like a lot of work. No, they're alright, eh? You right? Yeah. See ya. Hey, um, sir. Miss. I don't know if I should tell you this or not, but them two fellas there with the bikes. Yep. We were at the roadhouse back there. I saw one of them come out of the toilet with a sort of big plastic pack. He never went in with it. And the other one, he was talking with a fella in leathers. I don't know. It might not mean nothin', but I reckon they were up to no good. How big was the packet? Um, about this. He put it in that pannier bag. OK, thanks. That your car, by the way? Yeah, that's my Ferrari. Those front tyres need changing. Oh, right. I'll deal with it directly. You right? A bit of courtesy goes a long way. Hey! Mister! Over here! Hey, hey! Mister! I got it! I got the money! It's only 10,000, man. I didn't know much you want. What are you doing out here? ***! OK, OK. Now, you wanna give us back our gear? Or breathe water until you drown? It's up to you. I I don't have it. Or maybe you think it was your gear. I get confused. Was that you trying to get all that coke through the Straits? Was that you? Yeah. And we took it from you, so you took it back. And you killed his mate. Hmm? I don't have it. Oh, ***, I'm sorry bro. I *** up your nice haircut. Now, can you please rethink your answer? It wasn't It wasn't in the boat. Then you're gonna drown. We've been doing this for 20 minutes. Leave him there. Stop! We lost it! It wasn't him, please! It went overboard! We didn't mean it. It was just a basket. We were mucking around and we dropped it in the water. You dropped it? We thought it was just food. You sank $500,000 worth of gear? Huh? Enough, Gary. He's just a kid. I'm sorry. What do you want to do with this one? This boy wants to give you a chance. Tell me why I should listen to him. The Chinaman. I work for Quay Lin. I work for the Chinaman. You tell Quay Lin the Straits are closed to him. No-one will talk to him, no-one will touch anything he's touched. You hearing me? And if he wants to change that situation, you tell him give me a call, eh. And remember, we know where your people are. Good. Mr Montebello? Is anyone there? Mr Montebello? Oh, God, no. You alright, mate? Can I call someone? Are you sick? I'm alright. Listen, I'm sorry but you have to leave. I don't want to know what happened. Don't want to know anything. I'll clean your room. Nobody will know you were here. But for Christ's sake, you've gotta get out of here. I wanted you to be the leader. I know that you have that inside you. It was just a stupid one-night stand! I've been so frightened! Oh, my God, I've been so frightened! No, no, no, no! Don't! No! Where is she? At the croc farm. I couldn't I know I should've but I couldn't. Could you not do that? I'm OK. It's only me. Nothing to shed your skin over. Just like going to sleep, my little friends. Jesus! ***! Oh, ***! ***! Oh, God. God! Sex goddess! What the *** was that? Sex goddess! Sex goddess! I'm getting too old for this. Do you want to say anything? A prayer or something? No? What for? Why'd she do it? Try to knock you? No idea. Did you ask her? She wouldn't tell me. I need to go to Zey for a bit, see Mum. Get my head out of all this. Yeah, yeah, you do that. That's exactly where you need to be. Alright, let's go. Quay Lin. I understand we have a disagreement. I understand you're trying to cut us out. Not at all, Kitty. A little competition is healthy. What about no competition? I didn't appreciate this would be such a problem. You tell me how we can resolve this. Oh, I think I can think of a way. I want to reach in And rip out my heart And hold it, still beating Still yours I want to drop it on the road Then sit in the gutter And wait For a massive truck to squash the *** Like a toad 'Cause without this heart The pain of losing you is gone Without it, I'm free. Yeah, Marou is on his way, to get his head straightened out. Now, listen up. He doesn't know anything about you and your little fling, and I see no reason he should find out. She took it to the grave, so count yourself lucky. Really? Really. So look after him. Yep. And we'll never mention this again, alright? Yep. Fine by me, Dad. Glad he's coming up to see you and your mum, not those crazy Pentecostals. I don't want your apologies. I don't want anything from you, Harry. I know what your family is and I know what it does. They'd never hurt you. I'm sure you believe that, but I can't. Help a brother kill his brother? Easiest thing in the world, mate. So shoot him. Let the dogs have him. Come with me.
