00:00We'll give him a farewell party.
00:04Oh, that'd be great.
00:09Myra, we have to talk.
00:13I don't see why.
00:14We're just going to ignore what happened on the cell before.
00:17We might as well.
00:19It won't be happening again.
00:22If that was you, I'd just go on collecting all the dirt I could and then wait for my chance.
00:26How much more dirt is there?
00:28I reckon I've only just scratched the surface.
00:31Well, if you really want the full goods on, Murphy, then there's someone here right under your nose will be able to tell you, if you asked him the right way.
00:37Who?
00:38Jeff McRae.
00:40If I was you, I'd have a nice, long talk to him.
00:43If you want to keep on living, you don't say nothing about no one when this trial comes up.
00:47Nothing.
00:48You would be all right.
00:52Yeah, I think you've got the picture.
00:57Good old Ray, you know, I haven't seen an ice bobo in ages.
01:24A nice bobo in the evenings is sometimes better than a man.
01:31Sometimes I'd say all times.
01:33Oh, you would.
01:35No, Mum!
01:36Oh, Mum!
01:38Isn't he the only one you can't eat it?
01:39I'll get him.
01:42No, you won't.
01:44I will.
01:45Very artistic, Fixie.
01:46Yes, she is.
01:48Let me stand it for you.
01:49Oh, here's some sticky tape.
01:50No luck getting your meal in, love.
01:52Oh, no, look, I asked her, but she just keeps reading that book of hers.
01:55She won't even touch the food.
01:56I smell like that.
01:56Yeah, well, don't worry.
01:57I'll go and see her in a minute.
01:58Here he is, folks.
02:00Fastest little fella on four.
02:02Or is it six?
02:03Six.
02:04Speech, speech, speech.
02:05All right, all right.
02:07You know how hard it is to get me to say anything?
02:09Oh, sure, yeah, I thought the other one was.
02:11But, but, but, on this momentous occasion, it's obvious that a few words must be said about
02:18our little friend, who's not just a champion athlete, not just champion of champions, he's
02:25also a very special little roach.
02:29And he's a lot like us, got a lot of what it takes.
02:33Guts.
02:35He's a battler.
02:36And I reckon that what, that's what makes him so special.
02:42Especially to me.
02:45Because he's me mate.
02:47Oh, love you, bitch.
02:49Love you.
02:54Meg?
02:58Meg, it's Chris.
03:03Meg, you all right?
03:06You okay?
03:08Sorry it took so long, a lot of traffic.
03:11Look, I think you better go to the doctor, then go to the police.
03:13I'm not looking too good.
03:14All right.
03:15Please, just take me to the police station.
03:17Look, you think that's a good idea?
03:19Meg, you might have internal injuries.
03:21The, the baby might be in trouble.
03:22The baby is fine.
03:24Can we just go?
03:25Sure.
03:27Sure.
03:30Hi.
03:31Why don't you come and join the party?
03:35Come on, we're having a good time.
03:36Never know, there might be a slice of chocolate.
03:37Please!
03:39Leave me alone.
03:40To do what?
03:43Starving to death can take a long time, your meal.
03:46Two, maybe three months.
03:48What happens in the meantime?
03:49All the women have to watch.
03:52We have to live through it with you.
03:53Do you think that's fair?
03:54It is in God's hands.
03:56Oh, crap!
03:57I've never heard anything more selfish and narrow-minded in my life.
04:00Look, you ran away from your husband and the old ways because you couldn't live like that anymore.
04:09So what do you do?
04:11You come in here, you hide yourself away, determined to die according to the rules that you ran away from.
04:16Why?
04:17You scared?
04:20Are you too stupid?
04:23Or is it that you don't have the guts to stand up for yourself?
04:30Thanks.
04:40Have a go at these.
04:43Don't hold out much hope, though.
04:45Why not?
04:46Jokers in that book aren't heavy.
04:48Wrong MOs.
04:50There.
04:51Eh?
04:52That's him.
04:53What, this one?
04:54Yes.
04:55You sure?
04:56I'm positive.
04:58Bernard Edward Mulhair.
05:01That's funny.
05:03I don't think so.
05:05No, what I meant is that this Mulhair character's a bit of a weasel.
05:09Small-time thief.
05:11Never been involved in anything heavy.
05:13Rape's just not his form.
05:14Then his form's just changed.
05:17I assure you, that man raped me.
05:21Listen, I'm sorry about what happened before, how I carried on, you know, about math.
05:25I don't know what you mean.
05:27Yeah.
05:27It's silly to fight over a guy, isn't it?
05:31Yeah.
05:33Except you reminded me of Jack so much, I reckon I got a bit carried away.
05:37I don't know what you mean.
05:39None of my boyfriends ever took me seriously.
05:42They treated me like one of the fellas.
05:45Except one.
05:46Well, my girlfriend said he was a wimp, so I dropped him.
05:52Should have told your friends to get stuffed.
05:54Yeah.
05:56Makes you wonder, though.
05:58What might have happened if I'd just followed my own feelings, rather than listening to me so-called friends.
06:06Weak, eh?
06:07You know, except sometimes I reckon you ought to do what you feel you should.
06:14Sometimes you're wrong, you know.
06:18I've always been a bit jealous of you, you know.
06:21Why?
06:22Oh, because you're so cool.
06:26Experienced.
06:27You know what to do when it comes to a guy.
06:30Yeah, well, I suppose I've been around a bit more than you had.
06:35Promise you won't laugh if I tell you something.
06:38What?
06:40Promise you won't laugh.
06:41I promise what?
06:45I'm still a virgin.
06:47I can't hear.
06:49I said I'm still a virgin.
06:52Eh?
06:54Are you kidding, Rhys?
06:55You promised me you wouldn't laugh.
06:56I'm not.
06:59It's just I never heard of anyone your age still being a virgin.
07:02It's incredible.
07:03I've been at it for years.
07:05I sort of admire you for it.
07:06Oh, yeah, I don't see why.
07:08Just never fancied anyone enough, that's all.
07:12I thought it might be nice if I was still one when I got married.
07:17I suppose it would be.
07:18Hey, do you reckon I'm a bit of a mole because I was on the game?
07:24It's not.
07:26Why would I?
07:28I just thought you might.
07:30We're mates, aren't we?
07:31What you do with your body's your business.
07:36Same as what I do, don't do with mine.
07:40It's my business.
07:41I just don't want something like Matt to come between us.
07:48Neither do I.
07:50You won't mind me.
07:53What?
07:54If I got off with Matt.
07:55Well, no, of course not.
07:59That's your business.
08:01And, I mean, if he likes you too, then go for it.
08:06Thanks.
08:06So, Jude, what do you think my chances of getting out to see your mom one day?
08:17Tricky.
08:17Yeah, but she's really sick and I'm worried about her.
08:20Well, if Mrs. Reynolds was still governor, I'd say you had a chance.
08:22Yeah, but there must be a way.
08:24I mean, extenuating circumstances, anything.
08:26Well, Mr. Murphy wouldn't give you the time of day.
08:29And even if he did, it doesn't mean that the department would approve it.
08:32Well, they weren't exactly helpful to Myra when she wanted to get out and see her daughter.
08:36Did she?
08:37Well, she did, yeah.
08:38Well, how?
08:40She escaped.
08:41It was out of fate.
08:42You wouldn't have believed it, Sam, honest to God.
08:44We got all these...
08:47Come on, honey.
08:51I know you want to see your mom, but if you wait until Mrs. Reynolds is back, at least then you'll have a chance.
08:57Jude, I can't wait that long.
08:58Don't you understand?
09:00I've got to see her.
09:06But they never do.
09:14Good morning.
09:15Good morning.
09:15Good morning, Matt.
09:16Come on in.
09:17Yes, it is, isn't it?
09:19I think I've just gone to tell Matt what's worth eating for breakfast.
09:21Oh, much to choose from, Poppy.
09:23Well, I don't know what you said to her, but it certainly worked.
09:27Huh?
09:28Your meal, she's eating a toast.
09:29Yeah, well, I am glad to see she's finally come to her senses, huh?
09:32I agree.
09:33I couldn't imagine starving again.
09:36Mind you, you'd lose a bit of weight, wouldn't you?
09:38Shut up.
09:39Brandon, you know, Jude, I've been thinking.
09:41I wish I could, but you need a brain for that, don't you?
09:44Oh, very much.
09:45Seriously.
09:46About those drawings those little deaf kids sent in.
09:49Oh, yeah?
09:50What about them?
09:50Well, I thought maybe we could get together and build some sort of teaching aid based on the robot drawing.
09:57Sounds interesting.
09:58Teaching aid?
09:59Hey, get this.
10:02She was just pawning us.
10:04She didn't even see.
10:05Get some more toast, Bobby.
10:08I'm going to make sure she eats this time.
10:10See if we're going to have to force it down her throat.
10:12Oh, my God.
10:20Food's very hard to come by, isn't it?
10:34Especially in your country.
10:38If you found out that someone had deliberately left their breakfast for someone else to sit on, they'd be punished, wouldn't they?
10:43We would let them starve to death.
10:45Yeah, but we don't do things like that in this country.
10:47Then again, it mightn't have been deliberate.
10:52Maybe you didn't eat your breakfast because you were too weak.
10:56That's what we thought.
10:58So we've decided to help you.
11:01Come on, Mom.
11:03It's all right.
11:04Just do it.
11:05It's all right.
11:06Come on.
11:06It's all right.
11:09Come on, you stupid bitch.
11:11Nobody wants to see you die.
11:12Come on, Mom.
11:17You stupid little bitch.
11:32What's the use?
11:33Sorry, mate.
11:52Yeah, yeah.
11:56Get up tight, eh?
11:58Aren't you?
11:59Yeah.
11:59Look, I'm not gutless on nothing.
12:01I mean, I can handle trouble if it comes my way, but I don't fancy the idea of sitting out there being a target.
12:06Especially when we don't know where or when it's coming.
12:08Mate, there is nothing we can do about it.
12:09Murphy just isn't a damn.
12:11We could refuse to work.
12:13Go on strike.
12:13Be safer on the inside.
12:15Mate, if someone really wants to get us, they will.
12:17It doesn't matter a damn where we are.
12:19Why make it easy for them?
12:22Jeff.
12:22Jeff.
12:25All right.
12:25We'll give it a go.
12:28Move it, you two.
12:29It doesn't morning.
12:30T, there's work to be done.
12:31Not anymore, there isn't.
12:34If you can inform the governor as of this moment, we are on strike.
12:44Right.
12:45Your full name is Alexis J...
12:50Cut that off if you don't mind.
12:52Now, your name is Alexis Jane Patterson, is that correct?
12:58Why?
12:58Would it change your life?
13:00Just answer the question, please.
13:02Yeah.
13:03Yeah what?
13:05Just call me Lexi.
13:06But when I ask you a question, will you please answer with a simple yes or no?
13:10I'm Alexis Jane, who's never a pen.
13:13Patterson.
13:15You are on remand on a charge of larceny of $3,000.
13:19I didn't do it.
13:21No.
13:21Of course not.
13:24Thank you very much.
13:26Oh.
13:26I'll keep this one, yes.
13:28Now, what do we have in this little box of tricks?
13:32Of course.
13:35Well.
13:36Oh.
13:38Alcohol?
13:39I think not.
13:42And what is this?
13:43Oh.
13:44I build houses with them.
13:46I can have them, can't I?
13:48I mean, they need something to keep me out of mischief.
13:50I don't know.
13:51I'll check it later.
13:53In the meantime, Officer Brown will take you to the showers, where she will take off that
13:56extraordinary jewellery.
13:58Then you'll be presented to the governor.
14:02What was it like when you escaped?
14:14What?
14:15Well, you know, when you escaped that day at the fave to try to find your daughter.
14:19Weren't you scared?
14:20Of course I was.
14:21But I was more scared of what would happen to her if I didn't get you, huh?
14:24Such a fantastic idea.
14:27How did you think of it?
14:28I was desperate.
14:29Yeah, I guess you really.
14:30The whole idea and making it work and everything.
14:33Oh, there's something to be done.
14:34Every time I go to my cell, I have to keep my eyes closed in case she's trying to hang
14:38herself again.
14:39But it's a loop.
14:40If you ask me, she doesn't need our help.
14:41She needs a shrink.
14:42Myra, can't you go to Mr. Murphy?
14:44Something has to be done.
14:46Like what?
14:47Well, maybe they could start force feeding procedures, vitamin injections.
14:51No, you wouldn't lift a finger.
14:52It could be construed as a salt.
14:54Oh, well, it's never bothered him before.
14:56Oh, I know that.
14:57But in this case, he wouldn't risk it.
14:58Oh, that's silly.
14:59Something has to be done.
15:00I want no nonsense from you, Patterson.
15:08Understand?
15:09This is a prison, and I run a pretty tight ship.
15:13Captain and the governor, eh?
15:14What do I call you?
15:15Mr. Murphy.
15:16All right.
15:17Anyway, Mr. Murphy, sure you can't change your name?
15:20I don't think it suits you.
15:22How about something a bit more upbeat like?
15:23It's Mr. Murphy, and that's that.
15:26All right.
15:27Anyway, what I was going to say is that I was framed.
15:30Nah.
15:31Yeah, fair dinkum honest and all that crap.
15:33I won that three grand fair and square.
15:37You see, I was playing poker with this bloke, and the stakes got pretty high.
15:41He wanted to play strip jack naked, but didn't really fancy him.
15:44So he played for money instead.
15:46Anyway, I won.
15:47And then the lousy bugger starts screaming that he's been robbed.
15:49All because he's a lousy poker player.
15:51Well, you'll have a chance to defend yourself in court.
15:55But in the meantime, while you're here, you'll do as you're told, understand?
15:59Coming over loud and clear, Captain.
16:01Mr. Murphy.
16:02Sorry, I forgot.
16:04I've assigned you to a single cell.
16:06Mrs. Barry will show you the way.
16:07Off you go.
16:08All right.
16:09Hey, when you've got a few minutes, how about a couple of hands of poker?
16:11Oh, come on.
16:12Let's go.
16:14I'm sorry to interrupt, but there's a bit of trouble at the tool shed.
16:17McRae and Delaney have gone on strike.
16:20Have they now?
16:22Well, we'll soon see about that.
16:23Get him in here.
16:24Mick.
16:33I thought I'd find you here.
16:51Oh, Chris found to say you were coming here.
16:55I have an appointment with Dr. Goldstein.
16:57Oh, you can't do any better.
16:59He's the best obstetrician around.
17:01So they tell me.
17:02I assume you're worried about having a Down syndrome baby.
17:06Dr. Goldstein will probably do some tests.
17:10They'll take about three weeks to come through, and of course, by then a termination will be much more difficult.
17:14I'm not having a termination.
17:15I'm not having a termination, I told you.
17:18Meg, I don't want to frighten you or make you do anything you don't want to do.
17:22But if you do have a baby with Down syndrome, and you don't want it, or can't keep it, that child will spend the rest of its life in an institution.
17:30And if you're not going to take that letter seriously, then we'll protect ourselves.
17:46We're not working outside.
17:49Wait outside, Officer Bailey, please.
17:51Now, maybe I can't force you to work, but I can force you to go outside, even if I have to have you carried.
18:04Now, it's your choice.
18:06Do you want to be a moving target or a sitting one?
18:09You can't do that.
18:11I can do anything I damn well like.
18:13I'm running this place, and you better start believing it.
18:21Oh, good morning.
18:23Oh, I'm sorry.
18:24Can I help you?
18:26It is possible, I hope, I would please like to see Yemille Bacarta.
18:31Oh, I'm sorry, there's no one here of that name.
18:33Oh, but there must be, I am her husband.
18:35No, I'm sorry.
18:37Well, she must be, she must be here.
18:40The police, they tell me she's here.
18:41Um, Yemille, what did you say the other name was?
18:44Bacarta, Yemille Bacarta.
18:47No, what does she look like?
18:49Oh, very beautiful, about so high, short black hair like mine.
18:54No.
18:56Oh, just a minute.
18:57Um, Jane Doe.
18:59That could be the one.
19:00Oh, please, I can see her.
19:01Well, just a minute, Mr, what was it?
19:03Bacarta.
19:04Well, if you'd just take the seat, please, Mr Bacarta, I'll arrange for you to see the governor.
19:13Mrs Morris, how many months pregnant do you think you are?
19:16Almost three.
19:17Oh, I think you're mistaken.
19:20I would say closer to four.
19:22It's not possible.
19:23Women are notoriously inaccurate when it comes to guessing the date of conception.
19:27I had a lady in here.
19:28I know the date exactly, Doctor.
19:31It's something I shall never forget.
19:33You couldn't be mistaken.
19:35No.
19:36Is there something wrong?
19:37Well, the fundus, which is the top part of the uterus, is much larger than it should
19:42be for a fetus of barely three months.
19:45What does that mean?
19:46Oh, there's no cause for alarm.
19:48I'll make arrangements for you to have a scan as soon as possible.
19:51That way, we'll know for certain how far the pregnancy is ahead.
19:54How come you never told us you were such a good painter, Matt?
20:07Not really.
20:09Oh, yes, you are, isn't he, Rabbit?
20:10Have a look.
20:10Isn't Matt a good painter?
20:11Oh, yeah.
20:12Thanks.
20:13I've found a few more for you.
20:15Thanks.
20:16Oh, that looks great.
20:22Yeah, I like it.
20:23It's a nice horse, Sam, but how come it's got wheels?
20:25What?
20:26It's a Trojan horse, silly.
20:28They come with wheels.
20:30The Greeks used to hide themselves in it, and that's how they conquered Troy, right?
20:35Geez, the blanks must have been long.
20:38Hi.
20:41Oh, look, I was going to put them on our flash, but I think they'd look great on you.
20:46Look, come and meet everybody.
20:48Oh, this is Judy.
20:50Oh, I'm sorry.
20:50Myra.
20:51This is Bobby.
20:52Good day.
20:52Bobby!
20:53Bobby Mitchell!
20:55Lex, girl, bugger, where'd she come from?
20:58How have you been?
20:59Listen, everyone, this is Lexi Patterson, me mate from the old days.
21:02Geez, we used to tear the town apart, the terrible twinkles and kilda, they used to call us.
21:06Oh, Lex, see ya.
21:12Are you all right?
21:14Are you sure?
21:15You don't look too good to me.
21:17It is nothing.
21:18I think I'd better take you to see Sister Hall.
21:20No.
21:21No, I'll be all right.
21:23Where are you taking me?
21:24I've got a little surprise for you.
21:26But you said we see the governor.
21:28This is not the way.
21:29Well, that's right.
21:30But I've got some very good news for you.
21:32Your husband's come in and he's going to arrange bail for you.
21:35My husband?
21:35Yes.
21:38Look.
21:40Your meal.
21:42At last I found you.
21:43No, no.
21:44I do not go with him.
21:46I stay here.
21:46I stay here.
21:47No.
21:48Your meal.
21:50Your meal.
21:51Oh, remember George?
21:55You know, that snooty old bloke.
21:56He used to like a little young stuff.
21:57Oh, yeah.
21:58Because he was one of my regulars.
22:00Yeah, we were painting the bug.
22:02Oh, God.
22:02I'll never forget the night we rolled him.
22:04We filled him up with stamps and promise and took his money and sent him home to his wife.
22:09I wonder what ever happened to him.
22:10Oh, he's still around.
22:12Cruising around his Porsche.
22:13And he's into boys these days.
22:15Probably got sick of getting old.
22:17What's with the new image anyway?
22:19Last time I saw you, you were into Kiss.
22:20You know, Ace Frehley and all that.
22:22Well, that was before boy George came along.
22:24I mean, he's the greatest, Robbie.
22:27Bloody pooped up.
22:28Oh, what would you know?
22:30He's a great talent.
22:32If he is a poop, what's it matter?
22:33I reckon all those narrow-minded wimps that call him a poofter are just jealous.
22:39Oh, yeah.
22:40Well, I'm not.
22:41Boy, George, could you give a stuff what you or anybody else thinks?
22:44He's making a mint and good luck to him.
22:47Lex, why don't I show you around this stuff anyway?
22:51Hey, it's Myra.
22:52Uh-huh?
22:53You know that idea I had about Judy's death kits?
22:55Yep.
22:56What was that, Sam?
22:57Oh, I had this idea about building a robot.
22:59And I thought, if we could give them flashing eyes, when they answered correctly, the eyes
23:04could flash green, and if they were wrong, the eyes could flash red.
23:07What do you think?
23:08That's a great idea, Sam.
23:09Tell you what, I can give you a hand with it, if you like.
23:11Yeah.
23:12Sounds fine, love.
23:13Would you?
23:14Yeah.
23:15Bitch!
23:16You bitch!
23:17You told them!
23:18You told them!
23:20You have ruined me, you bitch!
23:43Well, I'll be okay with your meal.
23:45Yeah, I think she can look after herself.
23:47But what got into the kid going like that?
23:48Well, that's what Myra's trying to find out right this very minute.
23:50Right, fraternising in the corridors is not part of the deal.
23:54I want a word with you, McRae.
23:55She didn't start the conversation, it was my fault.
23:57That's not what I want to talk to you about.
23:58Here.
24:07I understand you've got the goods on Murphy.
24:10What's up to you?
24:11Let's just say that we'd all be a lot better off if we got rid of him, right?
24:17Right.
24:18Okay.
24:18Now, what do you know about Kevin Nielsen?
24:22He'll be doing some homework, Miss Ferguson.
24:24Gonna need a lot more than that if I'm gonna nail Murphy.
24:27Well, I know that Nielsen had a broken neck before he fell downstairs.
24:32You're proving it's another matter, eh?
24:33How far will you back me if I find a way of getting rid of Murphy?
24:40All the way?
24:41Can you arrange for us to work inside?
24:43Why?
24:44Someone's out to get us.
24:45We wouldn't have a chance outside.
24:47Okay, I'll speak to Murphy.
24:48No, we've tried that.
24:50See, he wants us set up.
24:53But if you spoke to the officers,
24:55pointing out the dangers of supervising us outside,
24:58I reckon they'd back you.
25:00All right.
25:03Leave it with me.
25:07Hey, Lex, do you remember Buddy Evans?
25:08That guy who used to play lead guitar for the roles?
25:10Dizzy was cool, wasn't he?
25:12Oh, until he started hanging around with that twit.
25:14Shirley, Danny.
25:15Look, do you think Mara would be safe with your meal?
25:17I mean, what if she goes crazy and attacks her with scissors on something?
25:20I'm okay, love.
25:21Your meal's too weak to harm anyone at the moment.
25:23Did you find out what's wrong?
25:24Not a thing.
25:25She's pulled the shutters right down.
25:26I can't get a peep out of her.
25:27Oh, goodness.
25:28I'm not going to get a wink of sleep tonight.
25:30I'll up to you fight
25:31and she's going to turn into some crazed monster or something.
25:34I doubt that.
25:35But something upset her.
25:36And you saw how sick she was this morning.
25:38I think she just got her strength from her anger.
25:40The governor wants to see you.
25:43Patterson, what are you doing here?
25:45Just visiting.
25:45Well, get back to your dorm and read your rule.
25:50Come along, Bobby.
25:50I'm not down this time, Mrs. Barry.
25:52Mrs. Barry, can I see you before you take Bobby out?
25:54Is it urgent?
25:55Yes, it is.
25:55Here's my husband.
25:57Thanks.
25:58Good night.
25:59What is it, Myra?
26:00It's about Jane.
26:02Jane Doe.
26:03Oh, we know her real name now.
26:05It's Emile Bacarta.
26:06Her husband came to visit her.
26:08What's the problem?
26:09Well, she came racing into the rec room in quite a state.
26:11Well, I'm as confused as you are, Myra.
26:13I mean, he seemed a nice enough man,
26:15but she just went into a mad panic,
26:17wouldn't speak to him and rushed out.
26:18Do you think you could arrange for him to visit again?
26:21Probably, but what's the point if she won't see him?
26:23I'd like to see him.
26:25Well, if you think it'll help.
26:26Well, none of us are getting through to her,
26:28and I'm very worried she'll try something desperate.
26:31Right.
26:31I'll arrange it.
26:32Thanks a lot.
26:33Barry, can we get a move on?
26:34The suspense is killing him.
26:35Yes, Bobby.
26:36Come along.
26:37Come along.
26:42What was all that about?
26:44Oh, there's no need to be concerned with Mr. Murphy.
26:47I mean, he really seems to care about Bobby.
26:49Well, Pixie dear, I know that you believe
26:51that there's a little bit of good in everybody,
26:53but in Mr. Murphy's case,
26:55you're going to have to make an exception here, dear.
26:59Well, there shouldn't be too many cockroaches left
27:01by the time you two finished.
27:03We can guarantee that.
27:04Right, would you like me to arrange for the women to vacate the building?
27:06Oh, no, I've still got more gear to bring in yet.
27:08Right, well, if you just sign in over here.
27:10Oh, and if you need any extra help,
27:12Officer Radcliffe will look after you.
27:13Okay, thanks.
27:14All right, well, I'll leave you to it.
27:16You're kidding.
27:17You start tomorrow.
27:18Oh, beauty, geez, I know you said I was good at fixing things
27:21and everything, but I never thought...
27:21I went to a lot of trouble to fix this one, Sparky.
27:24They're an electrical firm with a pretty good name.
27:27It wasn't easy to get them to take you on as an apprentice.
27:30So I want your word that you're not going to fail this up.
27:32Oh, geez, I won't.
27:34You're all right, you know that.
27:35You know, you do well at this,
27:37and you'll have a pretty good job to go to
27:38when you get out of here.
27:39Oh, thanks a lot.
27:40I won't forget this.
27:41I might even make Apprentice of the Year.
27:43What do you reckon?
27:44Wouldn't surprise me one little bit.
27:46Well, I think that's it.
27:47Off you go.
27:49Oh, I forgot.
27:51I was going to ask you a favour while I was in here.
27:54It's only very small.
27:55For a penny, eh?
27:57All right, what is it?
27:58Well, how big would this robot have to be, Sam?
28:01Oh, well, I'd say about the size of an average guy.
28:04Hey, we could use Matt as a model.
28:06Thought you rated him higher than average.
28:09Just me.
28:10All right, break out for Bubbly.
28:11Don't tell us.
28:12Don't tell us.
28:12He'd propose.
28:13No, no, no, we know the sort of proposition Murphy would make.
28:15Don't knock him.
28:16You just got me a job.
28:17I'm going to be an apprentice.
28:18Oh, that's true.
28:19Really?
28:20Yeah, I'll start tomorrow.
28:21Some big electrical factory.
28:22Oh, that'd be great.
28:23I mean, you're getting out.
28:25Just during the day.
28:26Come on, Rabbit, you're pleased, aren't you?
28:31Of course I am.
28:33You've been a bit quiet.
28:34Is there something wrong?
28:35Quiet?
28:37I haven't been able to get a wording since Lexi, right?
28:39Come on, she's an old mate.
28:41We've got lots of catching up to do.
28:43You and I are still mates, aren't we?
28:45Of course we are.
28:47We've got other mates, you know, from the outside.
28:49There you go.
28:50You'll like her once you get to know her.
28:51She's smart and she's good fun.
28:53It must be all right if she's one of your friends.
28:57Listen, Murphy was in such a good mood, I made him a proposition.
29:01Yeah?
29:02You and I, we're going to move.
29:03We're going to share a three-bed dorm with Lexi.
29:05Isn't that great?
29:06Terrific.
29:10It didn't occur to you to talk to me about this first, Miss Ferguson.
29:13I had to be sure that the other officers shared my concern.
29:16And they do.
29:17Now, while we're supervising those male prisoners out on the grounds,
29:20we're taking unnecessary risks.
29:21It's common knowledge that they were sent here for their own safety.
29:24The men were put here to protect them from the inmates at Woodridge.
29:27Yes, and we all know that inmates have friends on the outside.
29:31There is no reason why we should put ourselves in danger.
29:34Now, while we're supervising them out there,
29:36anyone can take a pot shot at them, miss, and kill one of us.
29:41Rubbish.
29:42The men have been working out there for weeks without any trouble.
29:45That's not what I've heard.
29:46Miss Ferguson, you know I can't keep the men locked away without a reason.
29:54Or are you suggesting I break the rules?
29:57I'm suggesting that you make alternative arrangements.
30:00There's plenty of work within the prison.
30:03All right, I'll look into it.
30:04But for the moment, things stay as they are.
30:09You're obviously not taking this seriously, Mr. Murphy.
30:13It's apparent to me that you consider officers expendable.
30:16Therefore, you leave me no alternative but to ring the department direct.
30:20Well, I'm in this chair, Ferguson.
30:22You will do as I tell you.
30:24Is that clear?
30:25Oh, where are you going?
30:39It's over here for a sec.
30:40Something Rabbit and I have to do.
30:47This looks like a good spot, eh?
30:51Come on, Rabbit.
30:52You've got no choice.
30:54No.
30:54It's a good old champion, wasn't it?
31:00Sure was.
31:03Hated the idea at first, you know.
31:05Racing cockroaches.
31:08Yeah, I know.
31:11He'll understand why I'm doing this, won't he?
31:14Of course he will.
31:16I think I'm smarter than Aussie, you know.
31:19I might just explain it to him once more.
31:22Okay.
31:24Okay.
31:26See you later, little champ.
31:27Anybody ever told me I became weepy over a cockroach.
31:38But he turned into something more.
31:42I'm stuck in a place like this and you can't have a dog or a cat or anything.
31:50You can get pretty lonely.
31:53Anyway, you're a really good sport.
31:59The only reason I'm saying goodbye like this is because if I took you back inside, you'd die.
32:05Take care of us, you're right.
32:13You'll be fine.
32:18Like I said, he's really smart.
32:23Not a big deal, you know.
32:25What a cockroach.
32:31What's up the stairs?
32:32Oh, that's the isolation way.
32:34How about if I start up there, Fred?
32:35Yeah, okay.
32:36I'll do it down here.
32:37I'll show you the way.
32:37Oh, it's okay.
32:38Bet you've got other things to do.
32:39I have been told to supervise the fumigating.
32:42I'll take you this way.
32:48We have to talk.
32:50Yes, we do.
32:52I could say your place or mine, but it'll be a bit tricky smuggling them into isolation.
32:58This is strictly business.
33:02So what's the real story on you guys?
33:04It's a long one, lady.
33:06I'll catch up with you later.
33:09So tell me, I've got plenty of time.
33:13If that applies to most people here.
33:25Something wrong?
33:26A bit dicey.
33:27Need to know where that air conditioning duct finishes.
33:29Oh, I'm sorry.
33:31I'm not familiar with the layout up here.
33:32I don't like to start spraying till I know.
33:35Oh, all right.
33:36Well, I'll check it out for you.
33:37I won't be long.
33:38All right.
33:39Hey, Rob.
33:50Where are you?
33:54Well, surely there's something in the hall for the gutters being outside for over a long period.
33:58Well, I wouldn't want to be fumigated, Jude.
34:02And besides, it's nice outside.
34:04And you can never get too much.
34:06It's not the fresh air I mind, Pixie.
34:08But when they don't pass the billy tea around.
34:10Hey, I reckon after tomorrow, I'll be getting out of here and have plenty of fresh air.
34:16Hey, I wonder what the teller's like when you get to work.
34:18Well, never mind that.
34:19You can play around too much.
34:20You'll use your apprenticeship.
34:21Oh, don't worry, Jude.
34:23No, I mean, look at it, Dad.
34:25Yeah, yeah, yeah.
34:25Oh, you can have something out of your door now.
34:27Okay, have that be tossed for bed.
34:28Okay.
34:29Rub it.
34:30Hey, Mara.
34:30I phoned your meal's husband.
34:38He's coming in during visiting the house tomorrow.
34:40Thanks, Mrs. Bing.
34:41Let's hope it helps.
34:42Only doing my best.
34:43Jesus, it's great gear, Lex.
34:45Help yourself any time.
34:46Oh, ta.
34:46Sorry, Mara.
34:47Don't think I've got anything in your size.
34:49I wouldn't be seeing dead in it.
34:51Anyway, we both have to wear our uniforms, you knew.
34:53Hey, I bet they'd sit up and take notice if I wore this to work tomorrow.
34:56They'd soak you on the spot.
34:58Yeah, you're right.
34:59They're probably just a bunch of squares.
35:00It still would be good doing some real work instead of folding those bloody sheets.
35:03Want a toss for bed?
35:05Why bother?
35:06It doesn't look like I'm going to have any say in this place.
35:10Geez, maybe it wasn't such a good idea, the three of us sharing.
35:13Oh, she'll get used to it.
35:15Look, Rabbit's me best mate.
35:16I don't want her to feel out of it.
35:18Oh, come off her, Bob.
35:18She's a real wimp.
35:19She's not.
35:20She's just a bit different, that's all.
35:22You can say that again.
35:23Look, getting into prison's pretty tough for anyone.
35:26Rabbit hasn't been around like us.
35:27She hasn't copped it easy.
35:29Just give her a go, will you?
35:30Oh, okay.
35:32How's the poster?
35:33Straight?
35:34Yeah.
35:35I don't reckon he is, but...
35:36Oh, I'd like a chance to find out.
35:45Penny for them.
35:48You'd be in strife if you're caught in here.
35:51The poster's clear.
35:52Everyone's too busy moaning about the fumes to check on us.
35:57What, uh...
35:58What did you want to say to me outside?
36:00I finally realised you're right.
36:02We have to work together.
36:04Gotta get rid of Murphy.
36:06Yeah.
36:08God knows what'll happen if he stays in the Governor's chair for too long.
36:10Well, we're not the only ones that want him out.
36:13Ferguson.
36:14We made a deal.
36:15Oh, come on.
36:16Make a deal with her and you're cutting your own throat.
36:18Look, I wouldn't trust her as far as I could spit.
36:20But she wants him out and she's about our only chance.
36:23We have to take the risk.
36:25I mean, I have to take the risk.
36:26I want you out of this, Myra.
36:28Oh, come on, Geoff.
36:29I know the freak better than you do.
36:30Yes, she wants Murphy out.
36:32But only because she wants the Governor's chair and always has.
36:35She'll use you and dump you.
36:37Look, I know.
36:37But it's our only alternative.
36:39They're just you promised me.
36:41You and the other woman will stay out of it.
36:43Look, I've seen what Murphy can do when he's crossed
36:45and that's not pretty, believe me.
36:48You promise?
36:50Yeah, I can.
36:51But, um...
36:56Take care, eh?
36:58I'd hate to see you get hurt.
37:05Doesn't smell too bad in here.
37:14Hey, food's not that bad, is it?
37:17Ever get a chance to work in the kitchen, you know?
37:19Score a few extras?
37:20He'll get you turned.
37:22Where's Bobby?
37:23Oh, I'm sounding off about a job to anyone who'll listen.
37:27What do you do around here at night?
37:29We used to have cockroach races.
37:31That roach really when you were packing.
37:33Never lost.
37:35There's not much we don't bet on in here.
37:37I hold the book if there's anything going.
37:39Yeah?
37:40Yeah.
37:41A lot of people have tried to muscle in,
37:42but I got it pretty much sewn up.
37:45I might even have a book on Bobby.
37:48How would you do that?
37:50Well, guess what time she gets back,
37:52how many guys she gets to work with.
37:53There's plenty of angles.
37:54She could tell you anything.
37:57If she knew we were having a book on it,
37:59she'd tell me the truth.
38:00We're mates.
38:01Yeah, sure.
38:02Well, count me in.
38:04I, uh, managed to smuggle in a bit of extra cash.
38:09Did you?
38:11I'll be in it.
38:12Uh, play cards at all, Rabbit.
38:15Yeah.
38:16We might have a guy later on.
38:18Give us a chance to get to know each other.
38:20Yeah, well, I wouldn't want to take advantage of you
38:22being new and everything.
38:23Oh, that's okay.
38:24All gotta learn sometime.
38:25Oh, it makes such a difference to the room, don't you think?
38:34Although, I wish we could have put a large castle in the middle.
38:37You know, like the one in Disneyland.
38:39They said it's really in Germany, you know.
38:40Oh, gosh, I'd love to go there.
38:43But to Germany.
38:44No, to Disneyland.
38:46Now, you're a romantic, Pixie.
38:47Ah, I guess I am.
38:49Oh, well.
38:50I was.
38:50But, well, you know when everything seems to be perfect
38:53and then something always goes wrong
38:55and the people who you think really love each other,
38:57they don't anymore?
38:58Oh, well, but still,
39:02there's nothing quite as beautiful as a wedding, is there?
39:04Are you a romantic, Jack?
39:06Well, yeah, I think I am, Pixie.
39:09That's good.
39:10Don't you think Samantha is talented?
39:12Very.
39:14Although, I would like to go there as well.
39:17Ah, Germany, I mean.
39:18I thought that's what you meant.
39:23The theme of this whole thing is freedom, isn't it?
39:26Yeah.
39:26It wouldn't be complete without a key, would it?
39:30Sometimes the best place to hide something
39:32is right under the noses of those that want it the most.
39:36Hey, Sam.
39:37Hmm?
39:38Have you seen Lexi or Rabbit?
39:39Yeah, saw them in the corridor going towards the library.
39:42Molly was going to teach Lexi how to play cards.
39:44Oh, bloody hell.
39:47Raise your two dollars.
39:48I don't know.
39:49I'm just about skinting this handwork.
39:51Look, I'll give you a tip, okay?
39:52I've got a real beauty here.
39:54Oh.
39:54Oh, well, might as well go for a break.
39:56I'll see you.
39:57That's what you say, isn't it?
39:58Yeah, look, you may not be doing too well,
40:00but you have picked up the lingo real quick.
40:03There you go.
40:04Done like a dinner, Mum.
40:06Yeah, you sure have had rotten hands.
40:08What's going on?
40:10Look at my winnings, Bob.
40:11Your winnings?
40:12Yeah, shame to take the money, really.
40:14She beat the pants off me.
40:16Look, if you don't mind, Lexi, I'll be giving it away now.
40:19Get this stuff stashed before a screw catches me.
40:21Yeah, sure.
40:23You're right, Bob.
40:24She really is a good sport.
40:26See you around.
40:27Okay, what's the scam?
40:33Look, I thought to give us a chance to get to the...
40:35Oh, yeah, yeah.
40:37Listen, she really took me.
40:38Beat the pants off me.
40:40You're a pro.
40:41You've been playing poker longer than you can read numbers.
40:43Yeah, well, just don't tell anyone else around here, okay?
40:45It'd turn me up gutless if they knew someone as dumb as rabbit skint me.
40:48Keep talking, Lex.
40:49I didn't knock around with you without knowing the score.
40:51You chew mugs like rabbit up for practice.
40:53Yeah, well, usually I do.
40:56I did think she'd be a pushover.
40:58But she got the cards.
41:00Look, it happens, Bobby.
41:02You don't suppose she's got a mark, do you?
41:05Rabbits as straight as they come.
41:06Yeah, well, you just keep your mouth shut about it, okay?
41:12Come on.
41:13Screws will be locking us up soon.
41:14You know something?
41:15You were right.
41:16Well, it's okay.
41:18Yeah, well, I told you you'd like it once you got to know it.
41:19Oh, don't worry.
41:23Do you want to come inside the prison tomorrow?
41:30It'll be told officially in the morning,
41:32but I thought you might sleep a little easier if you knew now.
41:35Thanks.
41:44What made Murphy change his mind?
41:47Who knows?
41:48It's nice and peaceful with Frank in solitary.
41:54Wish he'd stay there.
42:01What's up?
42:04Nothing.
42:04Come on, out with it.
42:07What?
42:08Just you seem to take a bit of a shine to Pixie tonight, that's all.
42:11Well, she's a sweetie.
42:14Crazy, but a sweetie.
42:16And?
42:16And she's not my type.
42:23You think a lot of her, don't you?
42:25Yeah.
42:26Yeah, I do.
42:28I reckon she's okay.
42:30Some of them.
42:32Bobby and that new girl, they scare the pants off me.
42:35Marlene's okay.
42:37She makes me laugh.
42:38I reckon she'd be a good mate if you needed one.
42:42But Pixie's the top of the list.
42:46Yeah.
42:48Well, now that you got that off your chest,
42:51how about you stop stalking around like a cage lion
42:53and let's get some shut-eye while we've got the chance.
42:58Okay.
42:58It must have been all that fresh air today.
43:05Gonna sleep like a baby.
43:06You did say I cleaned you out, didn't you, Lex?
43:15You're unfair and square, ma.
43:16Yeah, I don't feel good about it, though.
43:18Sense the brakes, rabbit.
43:19Yeah, well, I don't feel good about doing it to a mate of yours
43:22and someone who hasn't been round long enough to know the score.
43:26So I'm going to give it back.
43:29Lexie...
43:29No way, ma.
43:31I mean, a bit's a bit.
43:33I'll just have to stick around and pick up a few pointers.
43:37Oh, yeah, there's an idea.
43:38See, there are a lot of lurks to playing poker
43:40and you could probably get them from me.
43:42Yeah?
43:42Like what?
43:44Well, for a start, you've got to know when to bluff.
43:46Right?
43:46I did that to you a couple of times tonight.
43:48You might not have anything decent in your hand,
43:50but you can't let on to the other person, that sort of thing, right?
43:53And then when you discard,
43:54you have to make out like, you don't, you...
43:56What's the matter?
44:01Red!
44:02I drop dead, twirling heads!
44:05Toirling heads!
44:24He used to give me roses
44:36I wish he could again
44:41But that was on the outside
44:47And things were different then
44:52On the inside
44:54The sun still shines
44:57And the rain falls down
45:02But the sun and rain are prisoners too
45:06But the sun and rain are prisoners too
45:06When morning comes around
45:11Last night I dreamed we were together
45:17Sharing all the love with more
45:22Till I had to face the night
45:24Till I had to face the nightmare
45:28Of waking up alone
45:32On the inside the roses glow
45:36They don't land the stony ground
45:38They don't land the stony ground
45:43But the roses here are prisoners too
45:47When morning comes around
45:53For me is my friend
45:59I'm standing with no doubt
46:00And I'm standing with no doubt
46:02It's just for me
46:03I don't use my friend
46:04I don't know
46:05I don't wish I could say
