00:00Bingo!
00:03We've got it made, mate!
00:05We'll try the security gates later.
00:07Don't tell any of the others.
00:09I'll keep it until I can find a safe place to hide it.
00:11You're a smart kid, Lou.
00:13I think we'll make a great team.
00:15You do all the thinking you like,
00:17but just remember, I run things.
00:19Sure.
00:21Whatever you say.
00:23This is business.
00:25Save your strength for later.
00:27Years would not be enough to punish me.
00:30I have taken life.
00:32But you didn't mean to.
00:33I have taken life.
00:35And only life can pay for life.
00:38You don't know what's your mission, huh?
00:40Huh?
00:46Get out!
00:47Get out!
00:56You beast!
01:10You all right?
01:14Come on, let's have a look at you.
01:15It's your hands off her!
01:17You pathetic bastard!
01:18Can't get someone your own age, so you pick on a kid, you're all the bloody same.
01:21You think we're only good for one thing.
01:22Look, will you listen?
01:23Ma, it wasn't him.
01:25What?
01:26He was trying to save me from Frank.
01:31Yeah, well, he's one of your lot.
01:33What are you going to do about it?
01:34That's up to me, isn't it?
01:37Sorry, Bobby.
01:37Well, I think you'll be safe now.
01:40Your mother superior's here.
01:41Did you bring your brat to slap me wrist, did you?
02:08You bastard Frank.
02:13You just won't listen, will you, Burke?
02:17Or maybe this will make you.
02:18Yeah, but if you don't tell them, he could try it again.
02:31They'd be lagging.
02:33Yeah, well, so what?
02:34They shouldn't be here in the first place.
02:35Oh, Jude, that isn't fair.
02:37Matt and Jeff haven't done anything awful.
02:39I reckon it's nice having them round.
02:41If a dog franking, Jeff's going to be in trouble for being out of bounds.
02:44Yeah, that wouldn't be fair.
02:46Jeff's been really good to us.
02:47Well, maybe we shouldn't say anything.
02:49What do we do, wait till someone gets really hurt?
02:51Look, why don't we leave it up to their top dog?
02:54And what makes you think you can handle Frank?
02:56Well, let's give him a chance.
02:58Now, come on, if these guys are here to stay, we've got to abide by the same rules.
03:01And that means no lag.
03:04Start dobbing them in and we end up with more trouble.
03:06I don't know.
03:07Look, unless Jeff is prepared to lag, and he won't, all they're going to say is that
03:12it's Bobby's word against Frank's.
03:17It's a pity all males aren't more like Ozzy.
03:20More black and shiny.
03:22Oh, Jude, that isn't what she meant.
03:24Ozzy has a lovely personality.
03:26Personalities don't win races.
03:28Oh, speaking from your own experience again, eh, Lou?
03:31I hope he's not nervous.
03:32It's only an hour before the big race.
03:34Oh, I don't think I thought you'd get nervous.
03:37What's wrong?
03:40Your meal.
03:41She doesn't eat nothing.
03:43You can hardly blame her.
03:44This food isn't exactly Middle Eastern.
03:46She hasn't even tried it, though, Jude.
03:54I don't think any of you will have anything to worry about with him for quite a few days.
04:07Dear Aunty Jo, I'm not very good at writing, but I thought I'd tell you about the Taylors
04:20and say I miss you a real lot.
04:23Mr. and Mrs. Taylor are nice, and they're giving me me own room and everything.
04:27But their daughter, Tracy, is real bossy.
04:30Sometimes she gives me such a hard time, I feel like putting a spider in her bed.
04:35But I won't.
04:36Mr. Taylor said I can have Nicky, but do you think the mage would miss him too much?
04:40I had a dream the other night, and in it, you and me mum.
04:45Went fishing, and at night we all got into bed with Nicky and watched Jaws on TV.
04:51I won't tell you the ending, because it's sad.
04:53Anyway, I have to go and clean my teeth now.
04:56Please come and see me, or could I visit you?
04:59I love you, Shane.
05:02Piers, I still wish you and me mum.
05:13One, two, tell me who are you?
05:16Ozzie, three, four, tell me who's going to stop.
05:19Ozzie, one, six, tell me who's going to kiss.
05:22Ozzie, seven, eight, tell me who's going to kiss.
05:25Ozzie, now you are S-I-E.
05:27Ozzie, yay!
05:30Eleven, twilves, take a look at yourselves.
05:32That's right, like you showed up.
05:34The winner should always enter the ring last.
05:36Oh, yeah.
05:37What a good old pito-e-do.
05:38Myra, have a look at Lumberboy over there.
05:41They're nursing his injured pride.
05:43Ozzie, right?
05:45Okay, any more bets, girls?
05:46No, let's get it.
05:47Come on, let's get it.
05:48Myra, come on.
05:51Come on, put him in, quick, quick, quick.
05:54There you go, fella.
05:56Come on, Ozzie.
05:57Hey, that's not far-lap.
05:59Of course it is.
05:59Bully, we're smaller than that.
06:02Wouldn't be trying to cheat anyone, would you, Kelly?
06:04No, I've just been feeding him up, that's all.
06:06Maybe we should have a weigh-in yesterday.
06:07Maybe we should.
06:09Come back out now.
06:10We already gave us a day to make him shape up before.
06:13All right.
06:14You all right?
06:15Yeah.
06:15Yeah.
06:16Okay, ready, set, go.
06:19Ozzy! Ozzy! Ozzy, keep it down. We'll have the screws on our back.
06:38Oh, this isn't fair. We should have a special present for Ozzy or something.
06:41Yeah, like some champagne or a special rubdown or something.
06:44Oh, I don't think he'd appreciate that, but I've got some chocolate in my cell. I'll go and get it.
06:48Oh, get us some too, fix it. Hey, slag. You forgot your roach?
06:57Oh, yeah.
06:59Oh.
07:03Jeez.
07:18Oh, my goodness. Just stand still.
07:32Now, you take that off your neck.
07:35You meal.
07:36Take it off, I said.
07:37No, you get down here at once.
07:44Now, what on earth do you think you were doing?
07:48Don't you realize how upset I would have been if I came in here and found you dead?
07:52And what about all the other friends you have here? You can't do this to them.
07:58Are you a real friend?
08:00Well, of course I am.
08:01Then you'll help me die.
08:06Never.
08:09Not a friend.
08:17I brought some packet soup with me today.
08:19Shocking, the amount of coffee we drink, you know.
08:21And don't drink it.
08:24Morning.
08:25Welcome back.
08:27Well, dedication beyond the call of duty, eh?
08:30It's all too rare these days.
08:33Are you sure you're up to it? You look a bit peakish to me.
08:35I feel fine.
08:36Yeah, well, that's what the governor said, and look what happened to her.
08:39Well, that was different.
08:40I haven't come back to take charge of Wentworth.
08:43Of course.
08:44I guess some of us just aren't cut out to be martyrs.
08:51What are you laughing at?
08:53Oh, I can't remember in Kelly's face when I was across that line.
08:56Pity about poor old Farlat, though.
08:58Yeah.
08:59Hey, you don't suppose he was related to Ozzy, do you?
09:01Ain't he bloody stupid?
09:03I don't know.
09:04Ozzy was very quiet this morning.
09:06He was probably exhausted by all the excitement of the race.
09:09Yeah, I think he probably needs another big race.
09:12Against who?
09:13He's beaten everybody.
09:14I don't know about that.
09:16Hey, I could always race him against a mouse.
09:18Oh, come on, Mama.
09:20How's your meal?
09:21Oh, I don't know.
09:22She won't talk to me.
09:23She just keeps sitting there reading that little prayer book of yours.
09:25Look, Myra, we have to do something before she tries it again.
09:29I don't know what else we can do, Pixie.
09:31Except report it to the governor.
09:32Well, maybe we should.
09:33I don't want to see her end up like Karen.
09:36You don't understand.
09:39I'll have another talk to her.
09:40Maybe a different approach and I'll be able to get through.
09:42Oh, I hope someone can.
09:46Don't worry, love.
09:47We'll think of something.
09:48Yeah.
09:48Now, listen, why don't you just crawl up in a corner and have 40 weeks?
09:51Oh, I could certainly use the sleep, but I'm just too worried.
09:54Yeah, we will.
09:56Tell you what, we're going to organise a watch system.
09:58How do you do that?
09:59Lots of trips to the loo.
10:01Well, I must say it's a great relief having you back, Meg.
10:04Officers of your kind are few and far between.
10:07I think we'll make a first-rate team.
10:09Let's hope so.
10:11Well, any questions?
10:12Well, just on the men.
10:13I mean, if there have been any problems with them mixing with the women?
10:16Oh, nothing major so far.
10:17Yeah, but don't underestimate them.
10:19They're dangerous, all right.
10:20The department wouldn't have allowed them to mix with the women if they're that dangerous.
10:24Well, I sometimes think the department's a bit naive.
10:27You'd have to agree that putting a convicted rapist in among so many women is a bit stupid, isn't it?
10:32What?
10:33Yeah, that Frank Burke.
10:35Real nasty piece of work, that one.
10:37You know, this is his second time round for aggravated assault and rape.
10:41That McRae is not much better.
10:43Murdered a woman.
10:45I think the only one we don't have to worry about is young Delaney.
10:48I can't see him raping anybody.
10:50Unless, of course, he finds Ray Proctor.
10:51Ha ha ha.
10:52How'd you go?
11:18No worries.
11:20Beauty.
11:21The sugar's loose, so don't break the bloody bag.
11:23Right.
11:24A couple of days and I'll have a brew that'll knock your head off.
11:26Should be interesting.
11:28A couple of drinks and I'm anybody's.
11:30Oh, yeah.
11:30Fact is, even without a drink, I'm pretty friendly.
11:33You don't say.
11:34How about we go somewhere nice and quiet, get to know one another?
11:37Not now, love.
11:38Why?
11:38No one's watching.
11:39Well, no point pushing it.
11:40Are you scared or something?
11:42Scared?
11:42What then?
11:43All this talk about you being a bit of a stud?
11:45I reckon it's all crap.
11:47Get stuff, will you?
11:48Well, come on then.
11:50Ever had a good look at yourself?
11:52Man's got some pride.
11:54Where do you keep it?
11:55In your purse.
11:56You're looking for a smack in the mouth.
11:58Big girl.
11:59Hi.
12:11Why you look at me all the time?
12:13We don't want you trying to hang yourself again, do we?
12:16I do not hang again.
12:17Glad to hear it.
12:18I suppose you're going to starve yourself to death now.
12:22Emile, you are being very stupid.
12:25Now, you keep this up and I'm going to go to the governor,
12:27tell her your name and she'll track down your family.
12:29Is that what you want?
12:30Lots of your meals mean nothing.
12:32Oh, God's sake.
12:37Look, in my religion, it is very bad to take your own life.
12:43No God would want you to do that.
12:45You don't understand.
12:46I take life.
12:48Now, I must give life is tradition.
12:50But it wasn't deliberate.
12:52No.
12:52So bugger tradition.
12:54Let the courts decide if you should be punished.
12:56No, not caught.
13:00It's God's.
13:00Sir, the water from the showers, it could be piped into the veggie patch.
13:27Don't be stupid.
13:28Delaney water doesn't run uphill.
13:31We could pressurize the pipe.
13:32Forget it.
13:33All right.
13:34Just a suggestion.
13:35What about some shade?
13:37What?
13:38The hell do you think you're doing?
13:39If you get sprung with that, we all go.
13:42You're breaking my heart.
13:44I can't break your bloody heart if you don't toe the line.
13:46Murphy's just looking for a chance to put us away.
13:48But it's up to you to make sure he doesn't find one, isn't it?
13:50Don't you tempt me, Burke.
13:52If the screws found out about yesterday, you'd be history.
13:54Bull.
13:56But you weren't against mine, wouldn't it?
13:57You're jealous because I'm the only one around here.
13:59It's normal.
14:00Keep it out of here.
14:02Right, Burke.
14:06Hey, come on, Burke.
14:12You keep us down.
14:19Maybe 48 hours in solitary would improve your manners as well.
14:23But we didn't do anything wrong.
14:25Geoff took the knife off him.
14:27Speak when you're spoken to, Delaney.
14:28Is that correct, Miss Ferguson?
14:30Well, if you're called taking the knife after I had already grabbed Burke,
14:33yes, I suppose it is.
14:34I thought so.
14:36I suppose I should commend you on your bravery.
14:38Yes, you should.
14:40I'll have a full written report for the department ready this afternoon.
14:42I'll bring it in for your signature.
14:44Of course you will.
14:45Should make very interesting reading.
14:47Especially the part about how Burke happened to have a knife in the first place.
14:52You two got any ideas on that subject?
14:55No, we haven't.
14:56Okay, if that's the way you want to play it.
14:59Take him out, Miss Ferguson.
15:00Look, before I go, can you tell me what's happening about my correspondence studies?
15:04Your what?
15:05My correspondence studies.
15:07Mrs Reynolds said she was looking into it, but nothing's arrived so far.
15:10Nothing will, McRae.
15:12The department approved it.
15:14It's my right.
15:15Your right?
15:16Did you hear that, Miss Ferguson?
15:18Murderers talking about rights?
15:19Look, I've been studying for three years.
15:20I've nearly finished.
15:21You have finished as far as I'm concerned, McRae.
15:24Parole's a time for that sort of carry-on, if and when that occasion ever arises.
15:29Now, get out.
15:30I wish she'd get rid of that bloody prayer book.
15:45Well, don't say that.
15:46She'd be absolutely frantic if she lost her.
15:49It's this religion thing, Pixie.
15:50I mean, that's what's causing all the problems.
15:52Yeah, well, I wish we could find out her name.
15:54Well, then we could get in touch with her family.
15:56I mean, surely they could talk around it.
15:58I've tried all that.
15:59It's like talking to a brick wall.
16:00Next thing we know, the screws are going to have to force-feed her.
16:04You have to have them in.
16:05Oh, all right.
16:08Come on, Pixie.
16:08Come on, Pixie.
16:12Miss Burke.
16:13Don't worry.
16:14Where is he?
16:15Solitary.
16:16Good enough.
16:17Look, I've got something in the dorm.
16:18I'll just go and get him, okay?
16:19Yes, Anne.
16:20Hey, Matthew.
16:21Have you seen in the garden?
16:24Jeff.
16:25What?
16:26Got a minute?
16:27Look, I'm a bit light on patience today, so if this is going to be another lecture...
16:31No, no, please.
16:31I've been thinking about what you said.
16:34And?
16:35I think we should sit down and talk it out.
16:38I think it's a bit late for that.
16:39Best if we just keep out of each other's way.
16:41No.
16:42Look, that's not going to work.
16:43I'm prepared to be sensible if you are.
16:46Me be sensible?
16:50Yeah.
16:51All right.
16:52Myself after lunch.
16:54Okay.
16:55Mrs. Morris.
16:57Mrs. Anthony.
16:58I trust you've all been behaving yourselves?
17:01How are you?
17:02I'll survive, thank you.
17:04Oh, Pixie, I need someone to do trade duty for solitary.
17:07Oh, golly, do I have to?
17:08Is there any reason why not?
17:10Well, it's that Frank, isn't it?
17:13Yes, it is.
17:14Well...
17:14Sure, Bobby, I'll do it for you.
17:16What a bitch!
17:17I'll do it if you like.
17:19But since Miss Kelly here is so keen to be helpful, she can do it.
17:23Suits me.
17:24Come on.
17:34Can't you find the drawing pins?
17:35No, maybe they only gave me one box after all.
17:38I'll make you back.
17:39Coming for lunch?
17:40No, love.
17:40I want to finish this letter first.
17:42No, you're not.
17:43Do you think the bells ring around here for your amusement, Brian?
17:46Now get out.
17:48Come on.
17:48Not you.
17:50Well, go on, get a move on, Brian.
18:00Sorry, Greenway, I just wanted to talk to you alone for a moment.
18:04Sit down, please.
18:09How are you settling in?
18:11Good, thank you.
18:12Well, you seem to be adjusting quite well.
18:15You know, you're getting involved with the collage and your drawings.
18:20Yes.
18:22You seem to have talent.
18:25I just dabble, really.
18:26No, no, you're really very good.
18:33I was wondering if perhaps you could do something for me.
18:37Would it be at all possible to make a small painting from that?
18:45I could try.
18:47It would mean a lot to me.
18:49It's my father and a nephew.
18:54I'll do my best.
18:55I just wanted to tell Sam that there's apple pie on for sweets.
19:00Is that so?
19:02Well, I suggest you both get back to the dining room before I put you on a charge.
19:14Thanks.
19:15Thanks.
19:15How'd you go with the boys?
19:35No worries.
19:35Be ready in a week or so.
19:37Kelly, out.
19:38Now, that's not very friendly.
19:41Who's the spank?
19:42Shut your filthy mouth.
19:44I said out, Kelly.
19:48Only screw I've seen worth screwing.
19:51If you're trying to impress me, Burke, you've succeeded.
20:00I'm so impressed, you've earned yourself another charge.
20:03Nobody saw you?
20:32You, uh...
20:33Sort of yourself, then.
20:35Look, this isn't a social call.
20:40Oh, hell.
20:42I'm not very good at this.
20:44At what?
20:45Saying I'm sorry, all right?
20:48Well, don't do me any favours.
20:50Please.
20:52Look, we, uh...
20:53We have to sort a few things out.
20:55We sure do, lady.
20:56I've taken a lot of crap from you.
20:57Yeah, I know that.
20:58It's time you found out that we're not all mongrels like Frank Burke.
21:01Look, I made a mistake.
21:05And I'm trying to say that I am sorry.
21:07Do you want it written in blood?
21:11Look.
21:13Oh, hell, I don't know.
21:15Look, you have to look out for the women.
21:16I understand that.
21:17But will I just go a bit easy?
21:20Look, if you'd let me, maybe I could help.
21:22I mean with Burke.
21:23Yeah, well, if you could keep an eye on him, keep him away from those kids.
21:29Don't worry.
21:29It's as good as done.
21:31But, uh, warn them off too, will you?
21:34Make it pretty hard for a bloke to stay on the straight and narrow.
21:37You're not saying that Bobby gave that bastard the come on, are you?
21:43No, I'm not saying she meant to do it.
21:44You're damn right she didn't.
21:47We can live without it, you know.
21:49All of us.
21:50But it makes it bloody hard when we're being perved on by a bunch of strangers every time we turn around.
21:55What?
21:56Well, how one-eyed can you get?
21:58Look, the kids sent letters.
22:01I mean, they're practically open invitations to come and get it.
22:03You don't do that with someone like Frank.
22:05Oh, only Frank, I suppose.
22:07You and Delaney aren't interested.
22:08I didn't say that.
22:09Ah, you didn't need to.
22:11Look, just leave us alone, will you?
22:13Look, what are you so angry about?
22:15Look, if you just stop fighting me for a minute, maybe we could work together.
22:19Please.
22:21What are you scared of?
22:25I'm not scared.
22:36Myra.
22:47I...
22:48I...
22:48Could I have your attention, please, ladies?
23:10You won't be having an exercise period this afternoon.
23:13Oh, come on.
23:13Instead, Mr. Sutton is holding another of his group encounter sessions
23:17and he wants you all to attend.
23:19What, didn't he get enough last time?
23:20Yeah, those sessions are more hard work than working is.
23:23There'll be an extra exercise period tomorrow.
23:26Good thing, too, seeing as we're missing out today.
23:28Now, that's not the reason.
23:30We want you out on the grounds whilst the fumigators are here.
23:35There's been a lot of reports of vermin in the building,
23:38so the whole prison's been fumigated tomorrow.
23:41Vermin? You mean sort of like cockroaches and stuff like that?
23:44Is it always so hot in here?
23:46You OK?
23:47Pixie, get some help quickly.
23:50Mrs. Morris, are you sick?
23:52I can't get away. Give me some air.
23:53Let's get out of the infirmary.
23:54It's so bloody hot in here.
23:55Remember the time I flaked it because I was up the duck then?
23:58That's enough of that sort of talk.
23:59You're always looking for something to gossip about.
24:00I'll be all right.
24:01I'll get you there first.
24:03It's just a heat in here.
24:04No, we must let this in.
24:05Just to have a look at you.
24:06Bull, we are not always gossiping about the officers.
24:09Yeah, I know.
24:10Jeez, all I said was when I flaked it, I was up the duck.
24:17This session I'm holding this afternoon.
24:19I was wondering if the male prisoners might join in.
24:21What do you want those ratbags in it for?
24:24Well, if there's a chance they could get something out of it, I think they should be given the opportunity.
24:28Well, it seems to me like you're asking for a hard time, but it's your decision.
24:33Oh, there's something I want you to do for me.
24:36What's that?
24:37Oh, just a little favour.
24:37I've organised a work release for the Mitchell girl.
24:41Took a bit of doing, but I found a company that's prepared to take her on.
24:44I'm putting the paperwork through now.
24:46No point in being in charge if you can't make a few decisions.
24:49What's the favour?
24:50I need an evaluation on a mental state, just to cover myself with the department in case something happens.
24:56Well, I've no objections.
24:57There's no guarantee she'll talk to me.
25:00Oh, I can guarantee it all right.
25:02I'm in charge now, and they'll damn well do as they're told.
25:05You've got to take more care now.
25:09Look after yourself.
25:10Don't overdo things.
25:11Well, I wasn't.
25:12It was just the heat.
25:13Was it?
25:14Yes.
25:16Meg, don't.
25:17Please.
25:18Don't have the abortion.
25:20Oh, I know you think it's none of my business, but you see, I could never have children.
25:26That's why Norm and I had to adopt.
25:28I appreciate your concern.
25:29Look, please.
25:30Please, just hear me out.
25:32This isn't easy for me.
25:33You see, when I was young, I got pregnant.
25:37I didn't know what to do, and I heard about this woman who said she could fix it.
25:42She said she did it all the time, and nothing ever went wrong.
25:45Except with me, it did.
25:48And that's why I could never have children.
25:51Meg, I've never told this to anyone else before.
25:57Joyce, I am sorry.
25:58I have made a decision.
26:04I'm going to have the baby.
26:07Oh, thank God.
26:09You won't regret it.
26:10I just know you won't.
26:13Do you think you'll keep it?
26:14I don't know.
26:21The whole little bugger was broken up and just chuckle sprayed the place without having it done properly.
26:25What have they got against him anyway?
26:27I don't know.
26:28Maybe they don't want thousands of little Aussies running all around the place.
26:30He's not interested in that sort of thing.
26:33Do you really think Mrs. Morris is having a baby?
26:35Who knows, Pixie?
26:36But Mrs. Barry was very flustered when Bobby made that comment.
26:40Yeah, poor Mrs. Morris.
26:42What with Phil Cleary being shot.
26:44Poor little baby's never going to know who his father is.
26:47Well, I think I'll start on some baby clothes.
26:49No good leaving it to the last minute.
26:51Now, hang on.
26:51We don't even know if she's pregnant.
26:53And let's stop jumping to conclusions about who the father is.
26:57Mitchell, come with me.
26:58What have I done now?
26:59Just do what you told.
26:59Come on.
27:00Who's turn is it to check your meal?
27:07Sam's keeping an eye on me.
27:08Good.
27:09Laura, what's wrong?
27:11Oh, I don't know.
27:13I hope I'm wrong.
27:14That's all.
27:14What about?
27:16Well, Mrs. M, she was very shaken up after the rape.
27:19I got the feeling she was off men, even Cleary.
27:22What a follow.
27:23Well, all I'm thinking is, well, if she is pregnant, it's not necessarily his.
27:28It could be the result of the rape.
27:32In which case, our friend Angel has one more thing to answer for.
27:36God, I hope you're wrong.
27:38Yeah.
27:39So do I.
27:50What's all this about?
27:51Don't get up, Todd.
27:52I'm not trying to do a psych job on you.
27:53I just want to find out a few things.
27:56What sort of things?
27:58Well, have you ever thought what you'd like to do if you had the chance?
28:02You mean if I ever get out of this dump?
28:04Yeah.
28:05Well, I'd like to be a famous rock star or a model.
28:08Maybe even a stuntman in a movie would be nice.
28:10All right.
28:11But supposing things were a bit tough and you couldn't get one of those jobs straight away.
28:15Is there anything else you might settle for while you were waiting?
28:17Well, I do like to do things with me hands.
28:25You know them electrics classes we've been having?
28:28Well, I kind of like those.
28:30Well, what if we could get you a job where they'd train you to be a proper electrician?
28:34Be a bit much having to come back here every night, wouldn't it?
28:37Serious?
28:38Mr. Sutton, if ever I got the chance to do something like that, there's no way I'd mess it up.
28:42You know, nicking off and everything like that.
28:44I mean, I'm stupid, but I'm not that stupid.
28:46I don't think you're stupid at all.
28:48You don't really believe you are, do you?
28:52Only for ending up in here.
28:54I suppose I've got enough brains to get by.
28:56Well, what do you think was stupid?
28:58Breaking the law or getting caught?
29:02Both.
29:03Fair enough.
29:05All right, well, what about life in here?
29:08You getting by?
29:10Sure.
29:11Nothing worrying you?
29:13No.
29:13Nothing at all?
29:15Not even Philip's death?
29:18No.
29:26Nothing at all?
29:30No.
29:32I don't know.
29:43I don't know.
29:47Here we go.
29:50I don't know.
29:51The bugger's been making pumpkin wine.
30:06Why get himself putting the pound over that?
30:09I don't know.
30:11Doesn't make sense.
30:13Still, I'll keep it under wraps.
30:17He wants to make himself as sick as a dog.
30:19That's all right with me, as long as he doesn't cause us any trouble.
30:21I don't know what to say.
30:33What are we going to do?
30:46You have to protect us.
30:47I don't have to do anything.
30:50You were the one demanding your rights to work outside.
30:52That was before this happened.
30:53What's happened?
30:54Some little kid playing a joke.
30:56I can't take that seriously.
30:58You're just gutless, McCray.
31:00Somebody wants us dead and you know it.
31:02Now, as long as we're working outside, they could set up a sniper somewhere and he could
31:06blow us away as soon as he felt like it.
31:07You should have thought of that before you upset him in the first place, shouldn't you?
31:11As far as I'm concerned, none of you had been he lost.
31:14Request denied.
31:15Now, I've got work to do and so has that officer outside.
31:18Don't keep her waiting.
31:19Now, look!
31:20Don't you now look me.
31:22You give me any trouble and you'll have a lot more to worry about than some imaginary sniper.
31:27Now, get out.
31:28I won't say it again.
31:40Maybe Joyce was right.
31:41A few more days at home wouldn't hurt.
31:43I'm fine.
31:44It was just the heat in the laundry.
31:45Still, she had a point.
31:46It's hard to make personal decisions while you're at work.
31:48I know, but I'm just not ready yet.
31:51I mean, even if I did make a decision, so many things are going to change between now and
31:55when I have the baby.
31:57Like what?
31:58My feelings, for a start.
32:01I mean, they're changing from day to day.
32:04I mean, I think about it.
32:05I know there are a thousand practical and sensible reasons why I should give the baby up for adoption.
32:12And yet a little while ago, I went for a walk through maternity and spoke to some of the women.
32:16I mean, they're far worse off than me and they're so determined to keep their babies.
32:20There's no indecision there.
32:22They know exactly what they want.
32:24Well, maybe you have a better understanding of the problems.
32:26I think it's more than that.
32:29Meg, those women are acting on instinct.
32:31The very fact they're in prison indicates they don't have a clear understanding of action
32:34and consequence.
32:36You do.
32:36Start for me, Meg Morris.
32:47Yes.
32:52Right, thank you.
32:54What?
32:55The trial, Peter Wright's trial.
32:58It's to be held in a few days.
33:01Oh, I don't know whether I can face it now.
33:04I really don't.
33:05What sort of questions?
33:12About sex or what?
33:14Nothing like that.
33:16Just about what sort of job I'd like when I get out and would I shoot through if I had the chance.
33:20Great.
33:21Sounds like they're cooking up work release for you.
33:23That's all I need.
33:24What do you mean?
33:25It's going to be pretty bloody damn miserable around here once Aussie's gone.
33:30Without you being away every day as well.
33:32Come on, no one's going to give me a job.
33:35Just making noises.
33:35My goodness, who's funeral?
33:47Aussie's.
33:48What happened?
33:49Oh, it's what's going to happen when they come in tomorrow and spray the place.
33:53Well, you'll be outside, can't you?
33:55Just put him in your pocket or something.
33:56Yeah, but I've got to bring him back in sooner or later.
33:59Then what's going to happen?
34:00Oh, well, I think we should set him free.
34:02I mean, he's earned his freedom, don't you think?
34:04I can't do that, Pix.
34:06He'd never survive out there.
34:08It's a jungle.
34:09He's not going to survive very long in here either.
34:11Well, he'll soon adjust.
34:12I mean, he was getting by all right before you found him, wasn't he?
34:17Yeah, but I'm going to miss him.
34:23Well, we all will.
34:26Well, that's why we'll give him a proper send-off.
34:29We'll give him a farewell party.
34:32Hey, oh, that'd be great.
34:35Yeah.
34:39The last session was a bit of a fizzer.
34:42But at least it's given you the idea of the way we're going to go about this.
34:46Today, we're going to deal with self-image.
34:49Now, that's the way you see yourselves compared to the way others see you.
34:53I want each of you to describe yourself and see if the others agree with the description, all right?
34:58Now, who'll be first?
35:00If you want descriptions of us, why don't you get out our police files?
35:02We've got photos and everything.
35:05Well, maybe we can find things out that even the police don't know, Bobby.
35:09Now, who'll volunteer?
35:10Go on.
35:11Go on.
35:12You don't.
35:13You don't.
35:13I'll do it.
35:15I'll do it.
35:17Now, imagine everyone that we don't know Judy at all.
35:20We've never seen and never even heard about her.
35:22Judy, you describe yourself to us the way you think you are.
35:29I think I'm a bit of a slob.
35:33But I think that I can't do anything about that because that's just me.
35:38Any of you don't agree with what Judy says?
35:40I want you to say so, all right?
35:44Anything else?
35:45Yeah, I think I worry too much and probably get on everybody's nerves because I can't
35:54keep my nose out of everyone's business.
35:56What she means is she cares about people.
35:59There's nothing wrong with that.
36:00Yeah, Jude, stop putting yourself down.
36:02Yes, why don't you tell us some of your positive qualities?
36:06Oh, God.
36:07I don't think of anything else.
36:09Oh, yeah, well, you're too soft-hearted for your own good.
36:12Yeah, and if she's a slob, what's that make the rest of us?
36:15Judy is a nice, kind, generous person, and we all wish there could be more people like
36:20her.
36:20Hear, hear, Pixie.
36:23Who's next?
36:25Myra.
36:26Oh, no.
36:27Go, Myra.
36:28All right, right.
36:29I am level-headed, responsible, a natural-born leader.
36:34Oh, yeah.
36:35Perhaps with a heart of gold.
36:38Is there anything you don't like about yourself?
36:41Well, I, uh, I find it hard to see other people's point of view.
36:51Uh, not always as understanding as I should be.
36:55Uh, I find it a bit hard to talk about my own feelings.
37:05Probably why I was such a lousy mother.
37:10Anyone want to comment on that?
37:12Yeah, I do.
37:14You've done a hell of a job being a mother of the women in here, and everybody agrees on it.
37:18Yeah, I know what she means.
37:24You know, about, um, opening up to people.
37:28Yeah, I've, um, always had trouble.
37:32Especially admitting that I killed my wife.
37:34It's taken me 14 years to figure out why I did it.
37:41See, uh, in the beginning, uh, it was easy just to blame her.
37:47I, uh, just didn't know enough to, uh, put myself in her place and, uh, try to understand why she was like what she was.
37:57See, I think that's the most important thing.
38:00Come under grips with your own feelings.
38:04And then you can talk about them to others.
38:08See, I know if I'm fortunate enough to ever fall in love again, I'll handle it differently.
38:14It'll be through sharing and...
38:17...honestly understanding the other person's feelings.
38:26Any comments?
38:27Well, thanks, Johnny.
38:35I had to do a fair bit of digging.
38:37And it's cost me more than I expected.
38:39I'm sure it'll be worth it.
38:41Well, I talked to a lot of Woodridge people, prisoners and officers.
38:44And I got a lot of information.
38:46But remember, this has all got to be completely off the record, right?
38:49Understood.
38:50And I appreciate it, Irwin.
38:52Now tell me what you found out.
38:53Well, most of the Woodridge inmates have been knocked around by Murphy at one time or another.
39:05And there were two separate cases of young kids being held on remand found hung in their cells.
39:11Well, that could have been suicide, Irwin.
39:12You know what happens?
39:13Well, they were on remand.
39:15Look, even if they had been convicted, neither of them would have drawn long sentences.
39:18So why kill themselves?
39:19Anyway, the main thing is that they both had run-ins with Murphy.
39:23And, of course, he's well known as a poof basher.
39:27He really hates them.
39:28There was that Kevin Nielsen case.
39:30You know about that?
39:31Yeah.
39:32Well, he was being heavied all over the place by Murphy.
39:35Everyone knew it.
39:36And everyone knew it would end up bad.
39:38But he was found at the foot of some stairs with a broken neck.
39:41Sounds like I wasn't wrong about him.
39:44Oh, everyone at Woodridge knows about him.
39:45But no one's going to risk their neck giving evidence.
39:48Oh, surely someone's got guts enough.
39:49Oh, forget it.
39:51If I was you, I'd just go on collecting all the dirt I could and then wait for my chance.
39:55How much more dirt is there?
39:57I reckon I've only just scratched the surface.
40:00Well, if you really want the full goods on, Murphy,
40:02then there's someone here right under your nose who'd be able to tell you.
40:04If you asked him the right way.
40:06Who?
40:07Jeff McRae.
40:08If I was you, I'd have a nice, long talk to him.
40:15I reckon we ought to invite them along.
40:17His friends, he might get a bit lively.
40:19What do you reckon?
40:19We are his friends.
40:20Anyway, everybody else has let theirs go.
40:22And you go well, don't you think?
40:24I think so.
40:24What do you reckon, Mara?
40:25Yeah.
40:26Mara?
40:28We'll have to talk.
40:30I don't see why.
40:32Well, we're just going to ignore what happened on the cell before.
40:33Oh, we might as well.
40:36It won't be happening again.
40:43Has Meg gone?
40:44Oh, yes.
40:45Just a few minutes ago.
40:47I hope she takes my advice,
40:49goes straight home to bed and gets a good night's sleep.
40:52Uh-huh.
40:52Oh, Chris.
40:56Chris, um, I owe you an apology for the way I walked out on you and Meg the other night.
41:02I don't normally do things like that, but, well, I was very upset.
41:08But now Meg's going to have the baby after all.
41:12I'm so glad she's decided to do the right thing.
41:15Are you?
41:16Yes, of course.
41:17Why?
41:18Because it's a nice, happy storybook ending.
41:21Meg and the lovely new baby living happily ever after.
41:24What's wrong with that?
41:25Well, nothing at all, if that's the way it works out.
41:27But I don't like the chances.
41:29Why shouldn't it?
41:31If people would just leave her alone...
41:32Joyce, you're entitled to your point of view,
41:33but you're acting on your own emotions and not Meg's.
41:36What she needs to hear is clear common sense,
41:38and excuse me, she's not getting that from you.
41:40Well, we're...
41:41I'm sure everyone's being wonderful and supportive right now,
41:43but how long do you think that's going to last?
41:45And we've all got our own lives to live, our own problems.
41:47In the meantime, she has to go through the traumas of a rape trial,
41:50of months of pregnancy, of giving birth and then having a baby
41:53and deciding whether to keep it with all the problems that'll entail,
41:56or giving it up for adoption
41:57and probably feeling guilty about that for the rest of her life.
42:01I still think she's doing the right thing.
42:04How can you or anyone presume to know what's best in a situation like this?
42:08I don't.
42:09But I do know that she's on the verge of an emotional breakdown,
42:12and having the baby with the pressure she's under
42:14is probably just what she needs to send her right over the edge.
42:17And by the way, it's not a porch, it's a Mercedes.
42:27Did you like it?
42:28Rabbit?
42:31What?
42:31What do you think you're doing?
42:34What?
42:36I leave you alone with him for ten seconds,
42:37you're all over him like a rash, it's pathetic.
42:39It was not all over him.
42:41For your information, we happened to be very good friends
42:44since I went and apologised to him.
42:46If you had any sense, you'd do the same,
42:47and maybe he'd be friends with you too.
42:50Apologise for what?
42:51For treating him like a sex object.
42:53He's a person with feelings, you know, just like you and me.
42:56Oh, jeez.
42:57Murray was right.
42:59It's not up to us who he's interested in.
43:01It's up to him.
43:02If he's not interested in me that way,
43:05well, I'm happy just to be his friend.
43:07You want to try and crack on to him?
43:09Go ahead.
43:11Don't worry me.
43:15Oh, come on, everybody.
43:16There's a party in Bobby and Marlene's cell,
43:18and Sam's are now getting the decorations ready.
43:22Pixie, did you call in on your meal?
43:24Oh, I did.
43:25I took her some food and I invited her to the party,
43:27but she just wants to stay there.
43:28I mean, I'm awfully worried about her.
43:30Well, we can't do much else, can we?
43:32I'll call in on her later.
43:33Yeah.
43:43Don't even think of screaming.
43:45Just listen.
43:46If you want to keep on living,
43:48you don't say nothing about no-one when this trial comes up.
43:50Nothing.
43:51You recall all night.
43:55You know, I think you've got the pizza.
44:01You bastard!
44:02He used to give me roses
44:22I wish he could again
44:28But that was on the outside
44:34And things were different then
44:39On the inside
44:40The sun still shines
44:43And the rain falls down
44:49But the sun and rain are Christmas too
44:53But the sun and rain are Christmas too
44:53When morning comes around
44:58Last night I dreamed we were together
45:03Sharing all the love with more
45:09Till I had to face the night
45:11Till I had to face the nightmare
45:13Till I had to face the nightmare
45:14Of waking up alone
45:19On the inside
45:20On the inside
45:21On the inside the roses grow
45:23They don't land the stormy ground
45:25They don't land the stormy ground
45:29But the roses here are Christmas too
45:33When morning comes around
45:38When morning comes around
45:38When morning comes around
