00:00Slapping women on trumped-up charges, alienating your friends.
00:04I tell you, I'm getting worried about you.
00:07And I'm beginning to understand what Joan has to go through.
00:10What the hell has Joan got to do with anything?
00:13Everything.
00:14Every time an officer tries to do something efficient around here,
00:17she's thought of as some sort of freak.
00:19That's the popular name for Joan, isn't it?
00:21I really don't think that you...
00:23You can think what you damn well like, Rick.
00:26As far as I'm concerned, you can all go to hell.
00:29I've, uh, been a bit standoffish lately, haven't I?
00:34Well, you've got your reasons, whatever they may be.
00:36Don't feel you have to explain yourself to me.
00:38However, I would like to.
00:40Whatever you say.
00:42Not here, though. Will you have dinner with me tonight?
00:44If you're not too busy.
00:46I'm not, and I'd love to.
00:48About 7.30?
00:49Great.
00:50Can you give me one good reason why we should trust them?
00:52Yes, you won't get one single thing until you do.
00:55Mrs. Davidson said she'd come out here to discuss it with you tomorrow morning.
01:01Something, I suppose.
01:02Of course it is.
01:03But it won't happen unless you do.
01:06So now it's up to you.
01:08Not the department.
01:10Yeah, well, I'll talk to the women.
01:12Can't promise anything.
01:14I don't know, Keane.
01:15You seem to have quite a lot of influence over the women.
01:17Good.
01:20Use it.
01:24You have to kill Bobby, Cass.
01:26Before she kills you.
01:29What must you do?
01:31I must tell no one.
01:33Bobby's going to kill you, Cass.
01:35What must you do?
01:41Kill Bobby.
01:45I must kill Bobby.
01:47Dreadful.
02:01Well, you may be lots of things, kids, but a jack player, you ain't.
02:04It's a bloody stupid game anyway.
02:06We're to learn it.
02:07I learned to play when I was a kid.
02:09Is that the old days and yet to make your own fun?
02:11Cheeky bugger.
02:13All right, everybody, gather around.
02:14Got something to tell you.
02:15Uh, look, uh, I don't mean to be rude, but this is a legit union meeting.
02:21Do you mind?
02:22Today the laundry, tomorrow the world.
02:24Is that it, Keane?
02:25Could be.
02:27Might have to leave the world till Monday, though.
02:28I'm a bit busy this week.
02:29Just don't push your luck.
02:31Let's get this lot back to work.
02:34Bloody hell, what'd you have for breakfast?
02:37Relax.
02:38We've got them right where we want them.
02:41Just had a little chat with the governor.
02:43What'd she say?
02:44I said that we'd only go back to work if she got Davidson in to talk to me.
02:49Let's face it.
02:50You want something done, go right to the top, eh?
02:52Yeah, but she won't come.
02:54Like hell, she'll be here tomorrow.
02:56And if she doesn't come up with better paying conditions, we go right back on strike again.
03:00You hear that, Brian?
03:07From now on, you want something done?
03:10Come and see me.
03:13She's serious, Stuart.
03:14Do you reckon David will talk to her?
03:17Don't worry about it.
03:22Oh, hi, Cass.
03:23What are you doing here by yourself?
03:26Correction.
03:26What am I doing here by myself?
03:28Yoo-hoo!
03:30Oh, Myra!
03:31Oh, having a bit of a think.
03:32How's your head?
03:33Oh, a bit sore, love.
03:34How are you going with Dr. Edmunds?
03:35Oh, good.
03:36Seems like a nice bloke.
03:37Look, if your head's real bad, do you want to have a whirlwind?
03:38Okay, don't everybody stand up.
03:39It's only me.
03:41How's your head?
03:41Oh, better if you stop yelling, Jude.
03:43Oh, sorry.
03:44Is it that bad, is it?
03:45Oh, gee, and I was going to go and scratch me fingernails on a blackboard.
03:48Oh, gee, why don't you grow up, Bobby?
03:50Well, it's only joking.
03:51Yeah, well, Myra's crook.
03:52You don't need stupid gags like that.
03:53Just grow up, will you?
03:55Myra, I'm sorry.
03:56I didn't mean anything.
03:56Oh, I love your only joking.
03:59What's with Cass?
04:00I don't know, but I'm going to talk to her.
04:01You wave your life.
04:02Hi, Myra.
04:03How's your head?
04:03Look, I've got some dried fruit for Cass.
04:05Uh, not just yet, Pixie.
04:07Why aren't you in the kitchen?
04:07Oh, it's Mrs. O'Regan again.
04:09Gosh, it's difficult to get on with.
04:11What have you done now?
04:12Well, I guess it was a bit silly of me, I suppose, but I've never made a curry before.
04:16And?
04:17Well, Mrs. O'Regan asked me to put in half a tin of curry powder.
04:20I thought she said one and a hot tin.
04:21Gosh, it was hot.
04:22Do you think she'll serve it to her?
04:23If she does, Pixie, don't breathe a word to anyone or they'll kill you.
04:27Come on, Cass.
04:28I find that hard to believe.
04:29The two of you were the best friends in the whole block.
04:31Yeah, well, I thought so too, but you don't know her, Jude.
04:33Not really.
04:34She's done things.
04:36Oh, well, it's no big deal.
04:38You leave it with me, I'll fix it.
04:39You sure?
04:40Oh, yeah.
04:41I'm sure.
04:42Listen, stupid.
04:43There's only one way to stay on top of this joint, and that's to supply them with dope.
04:46Oh, okay, then get some more.
04:48Yeah, what with dummy?
04:49You neck the first lot.
04:50Myra neck the second.
04:51What am I supposed to use for bread?
04:53They don't make coloured beads anymore.
04:54What do you expect me to do about it?
04:56Get it back.
04:57Off Desmond and Bryant.
04:58You've got to be kidding.
05:00What about that muscle?
05:01Cass will kill me.
05:01Yeah, well, I'll kill you if you don't.
05:04Listen, stupid.
05:05I'm running this joint.
05:06So if you want friends, you better do as you're told.
05:09Now, what'll it be?
05:17So when are you going to do it?
05:18After tea.
05:19I've got an idea, but let's wait for the others, can you?
05:21Oh, watch that.
05:21Pixie said that she'd do it.
05:23Whoa.
05:24Come on.
05:25Have you tried it yet, Myra?
05:26What's it like?
05:27Ask June.
05:29Don't you like it, June?
05:30Oh, yeah, terrific if you want to burn your mouth out.
05:33Okay, we're all here.
05:34Now, listen.
05:36I was going to throw that dope out, but I want to teach Keen a lesson at the same time.
05:41How are you going to do that?
05:43Bobby, how can you eat that stuff?
05:44Oh, why not?
05:45It's grass.
05:46I'm sorry, love.
05:46What are you going to do?
05:47Keen wants the dope back, and I'm going to give it to her.
05:49How are you going to do that, Maura?
05:50It's not going to be pretty, Cass, but I'm going to make her eat it.
05:53Oh, isn't that dangerous?
05:54I mean, wouldn't she get sick or something?
05:56Nah.
05:57Tell you what, though, she'll be as high as a kite for a while.
05:59She might be smiling for a while, Bobby, but when she comes down, she'll have withdrawal
06:02symptoms that would kill an elephant.
06:04When are we going to do it?
06:05Uh-uh.
06:06You stay right out of it, love.
06:07You've got to share a cell with her, remember?
06:09Now, Pixie, do you think you can come up with a way of keeping Phyllis away from the
06:12show?
06:13Look, I'm sorry.
06:14Do you want to be in on it?
06:15Yes, sure.
06:16I'm right.
06:20Right.
06:20Oh, heavens, I'm so nervous.
06:28Now, you won't forget to laugh, will you?
06:30As soon as Phyllis walks in the door, I'll say, and you'll never guess where I hid it.
06:33I hid it in...
06:34I know, Pix.
06:35We've been over it a hundred times.
06:36And you'll never guess where I hid it.
06:38I hid it in my ear.
06:39You think I'm a dill or something, eh?
06:42Oh, and they never found it, eh?
06:45No, but they still hid it in our cell.
06:47I'll show it to you later.
06:48Oh, are you two going to talk or play cards?
06:51Oh, no.
06:52You can have the table.
06:54You've got to admit, Buck Pixie's a bit far-fetched.
06:57Oh, heavens no.
06:57I mean, it's only a diamond.
06:59It was the last thing Mrs. Parr would have looked for.
07:01A diamond?
07:02What the hell are you talking about?
07:03Well, Cass won't believe I smuggled a diamond in.
07:06I did, too.
07:07Oh, it's beautiful.
07:07It is that big.
07:10How come I never seen it?
07:11We share a cell.
07:12Hey, where have you got it hidden?
07:14Well, you know those shoes that make me limp?
07:17Yeah.
07:18Oh, you stuck it in the shoes.
07:19Yeah, and that's where I'll leave.
07:21Hello, Climber.
07:22Yeah, yeah.
07:23And I've got the crown jewels hidden in me knickers.
07:26Do you want a game, Phil?
07:27No, I've got a right to be mum.
07:29You give those two a game.
07:30I've got to go and get me ping.
07:32Righto.
07:32What are we playing?
07:34Oh, we're easy, aren't we, Bits?
07:36Yeah.
07:36Yeah.
07:37She's coming.
07:43Is she by herself?
07:44Yeah, yeah.
07:45Let's make it sound good.
07:46Okay.
07:47Well, all I'm saying is I reckon you're crazy to get rid of it.
07:50Well, what do you suggest we do?
07:51Well, why don't you plant it on her and then when the screws find it, it'll be bye-bye rep.
07:56Nah, too risky, Jude.
07:57Something could go wrong.
07:58Oh, well.
07:59Okay, you're the boss.
08:00Where'd you hide it?
08:02In the shower block.
08:03Oh.
08:04Well, when are you going to flush it away?
08:06As soon as I find my fags.
08:07Now, what do I do with them?
08:10Uh, in the locker?
08:12No.
08:13Not there.
08:14Hang on.
08:15Under the pillow.
08:16No.
08:16No.
08:17I'm not only running out of places to look, I'm running out of things to say.
08:20Under the mat.
08:21Relax, she's gone.
08:22Oh, good.
08:23You deserve an Oscar.
08:25You bet.
08:25Quick, Reb, you've got to get down to the shower block right away.
08:30No, thanks.
08:31Just been.
08:31Well, Judy and Myra are flushing your dope down there, Danny.
08:34How do you know?
08:34I heard Myra talking.
08:35She reckon she's got it hidden there.
08:38Well, what are you waiting for?
08:39They're doing it right now.
08:40Hang on, hang on.
08:40Sounds too easy.
08:41Could be a set-up.
08:42Oh, come on.
08:42I've given you the word and you're not doing nothing about it.
08:45All right.
08:45I'll take a punt.
08:46Come on, move.
08:47Oh, well, I'm not going.
08:48You do as your bloody well-told.
08:49Well, no.
08:49See, I've got this deal, Reb.
08:50My Miss Pixie's got this diamond hidden in the shower.
08:52All right, you'll be useless anyway.
08:53Get Alice to meet me there.
08:54But I've got to go and see if I can...
08:55Do it.
08:56Just talk to me, will you?
08:58I haven't got time.
08:58Now, do what you was talking about.
08:59Back to the rec room.
09:00Oh, Cass, you've given me the flick twice today and I don't even know why.
09:04What does it take to get a message through to you?
09:06Myra told you to stay out of this, right?
09:07Yeah, but...
09:08So what are you trying to do, mess the whole thing up?
09:09I wouldn't put it past you.
09:11Can I talk to you later?
09:12No.
09:13Forget it.
09:14Oh, Cass, what's wrong?
09:16Please tell me and I'll make it up to you later.
09:18We're mates.
09:19Oh, good act, Mitchell.
09:21Real good.
09:22You know, I had a dog like you once.
09:24He used to follow me all around, you know, real good, mate.
09:27And then one day my dad shot him.
09:29Said Prince had gone bad, was killing the neighbour's sheep.
09:31No, I never forgave my dad for that because I thought he was wrong.
09:34I just couldn't believe something so friendly could be so rotten underneath.
09:38And now I know better.
09:40Don't I?
09:47What's the hurry, Cain?
09:48Yeah, curry, giving you a bad time.
09:50What are you done with it, Desmond?
09:52Done with what?
09:53Don't play funny buggers with me.
09:54What are you done with it, don't?
09:56Oh, that.
09:59Nothing.
10:01Yet.
10:03Got any suggestions?
10:05Hand it over.
10:06Oh, just like that.
10:07What do you think, Jude?
10:08Well, it is hers.
10:10Yeah, but possession, nine-tenths of the law.
10:13Oh, yes, I'd forgotten about that.
10:16Well, it looks like you've dipped out, Reb.
10:18Yeah?
10:19Well, we'll see about that when Alice gets here.
10:21Don't hold your breath, Cain.
10:23Phyllis and Alice are running around the prison looking for diamonds.
10:26You bitches, set me up.
10:27Oh, catch is on quick, isn't she?
10:28It's very sharp as a tank.
10:30Tell you what, Reb.
10:31Just to show you that there's no hard feelings.
10:35You can have your dope back.
10:37Pigs might fly.
10:39What's the catch?
10:41You'll eat it.
10:45Nice twist, eh?
10:49Got the water, Jude?
10:50Check.
10:52Hey!
10:52Come on, swallow it.
11:03Swallow.
11:06Okay, T.
11:07No, don't.
11:09Ever.
11:09Ever.
11:22Listen, Mason, I don't need you to hold my hand, so get lost, all right?
11:30But ladies always go to the loo together, and I want to put her anywhere.
11:33What the hell are you doing here?
11:33You're supposed to be with Reb.
11:34Oh, don't tell me.
11:35Tell her.
11:36I've been trying to get rid of the stupid bitch, but she's like a bad smell.
11:39Did you find it?
11:40No.
11:41Where's the diamond, Mason?
11:42I told you, it's in my cell...
11:43Oh, fellas, you've been looking for it, haven't you?
11:46You were going to steal it.
11:48Yeah, awful, ain't I?
11:50Now, where is it, Mason?
11:51And don't give me any of that rubbish about it beating your shoe, because it ain't!
11:54Well, it must be because that's where I left it.
11:57Go on, what happened to her?
11:59What's happened?
12:02I told you to get Alice.
12:05She's dead, but she couldn't shake Mason.
12:07Are you feeling ill?
12:08You're not looking very well.
12:09Break off.
12:09But what about...
12:10What happened?
12:12They get stuck into you.
12:13They just made me swallow it.
12:15What?
12:15Two hundred bucks worth of coke, and then maybe swallow it.
12:19Hell, you're going to be all right.
12:20I'd show I chucked most of it, but I'd fly like a lucky coke.
12:23Bitch!
12:24Well, what can you do, Ray?
12:26Get me?
12:27Take me in a mate.
12:28Take me to Desmond.
12:29I'm going to kill the bitch.
12:31Oh!
12:31What is the screws there, you're right?
12:34Don't they dodge it for once, will you?
12:35Oh, come on, man.
12:37Jeez, I'll tell you something.
12:39I reckon that stuff was working even before we left, hadn't you?
12:42Terrific.
12:42I've got to spend the night with a coke zombie.
12:44Oh, I wouldn't worry about it, Bobby.
12:46She'll be so high, she won't even know you're there.
12:48What about after?
12:49She'll be too sick to worry, Bobby.
12:51Let's hope the screws see her.
12:52Yeah, they might send her off to keep Margo company.
12:54Oh, wouldn't that be heaven?
12:56One thing's for sure, she won't be going to that meeting with Davidson tomorrow.
12:59I might have to take her place.
13:01Aren't you forgetting something?
13:03What about the goons who were trading?
13:04They're not going to be too happy.
13:06If they were addicts, Bobby, I'd agree with you.
13:07But the only reason they're taking that stuff is because they're bored silly.
13:10They're still going to be bored.
13:11After that meeting with David tomorrow, no one's going to be bored.
13:14There are going to be so many projects happening here, people will want to get out for a rest.
13:19Oh, Pix!
13:19Oh, Mrs. Barfield bailed me up in the corridor.
13:22Gosh, she can talk.
13:23How'd it go, Mara?
13:24I was awfully worried.
13:25Like clockwork, Pixie.
13:26Cass said you were brilliant.
13:27Oh, yes.
13:27I love diamonds.
13:28Desmond!
13:32Quite work, Desmond.
13:34I'm running things I had.
13:37How?
13:39How are we?
13:40Keep it up, Reb.
13:41You're doing just fine.
13:43Oh, God, shut her up, Phil.
13:44Come on, Reb, it's a screw scene.
13:45You've had to sit down.
13:47You mean I've got to spend the night with that?
13:51She's taking a week's supply.
13:52What do you expect?
13:54Something tells me you won't be getting a lot of sleep.
13:56Maran, get to yourselves.
13:57Don't take all night.
13:59Oh, come on, move it.
14:05That's what I call doing as you're told.
14:07Maybe they could teach you a thing or two, Desmond.
14:10And the med students' ball.
14:12You know, when they let the pig loose on the floor.
14:14Do you remember that?
14:15Yes, I do.
14:16The poor thing was scared to death.
14:18Of course he was scared.
14:19He couldn't dance a step.
14:20You put in a report about that, if I remember correctly.
14:26You do.
14:27It didn't stop them, though, did it?
14:28Well, you know what students are.
14:30Anyway, these days, they seem to be quite satisfied to throw things at politicians or save whales.
14:35Well, good for them.
14:37I can think of a few people I'd like to throw things at.
14:40Oh, Anne, that laugh, that smile, that...
14:49Everything.
14:54You're so lovely.
14:57Let me get you another liqueur.
14:59What's wrong, Anne?
15:08Every time I get close to you, you...
15:10You...
15:11You pull away.
15:14What is it?
15:20There's something I have to tell you.
15:22And I'm scared.
15:26Because I don't know how you're going to take it.
15:37Good morning.
15:39Shh, shh, shh, shh.
15:40You...
15:41Little leg.
15:43I'll kill you.
15:45I'll kill you.
15:46I'll kill you.
15:47I...
15:47I...
15:48I...
15:48Shh, shh, shh.
15:50I'll kill you, I'll kill you, I'll kill you, I'll kill you, I'll kill you, I'll kill you, I'll kill you for me.
15:55Just leave me.
15:58Good morning.
16:00Get your shoes off that blanket, show you, you're not an own boss.
16:05Shh.
16:11Good night, Miss Ferguson.
16:20I will kill you, I'll kill you, I'll kill you, I'll kill you, I'll kill you, I'll kill you for you.
16:26No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
16:28I cannot think.
16:29Oh, my God.
16:30Cut it out, Red, it was only coke.
16:34Coke?
16:35What is it?
16:37You, you...
16:39You...
16:40You...
16:41You tell me!
16:42You tell...
16:42You tell me what...
16:44That's what you said, isn't it?
16:46Paste it up, Red.
16:47You're off your face.
16:48Can you tell me what?
16:58Yeah, well, I know it all seems real funny now, but when I saw you pulling all them faces, I thought to myself, jeez, pigs must have something crawling on them.
17:04I know. Well, I couldn't think of what else to do because Alice and Phyllis had just walked in and you couldn't see them.
17:09Ah, you should have kicked me or something.
17:11Oh, well, I did. Well, must have been the leg of the table or something.
17:14Oh, jeez, I laugh when Phyllis suddenly reckons she had to write to her mother.
17:17Why?
17:18Well, fancy telling us she was going to write to her mother when all the time we knew she was going to come in here looking for the diamond.
17:24Oh.
17:26Something up?
17:27Well, I thought she was going to write to her mother. I knew she was going to look for the diamond too, but, oh, gosh, she's a good actress, isn't she?
17:37So, listen, Adolf.
17:38Oh, just giving everything a good dusting, that's all. It's not a late spring clean. It's amazing how the dust collects, isn't it?
17:44Terrible. Clean it up or you'll be on a charge.
17:48Good night, Miss Ferguson.
17:51I'll tell you something, Pix. You're a pretty good actress yourself.
17:54Oh.
17:57Oh.
17:58Oh.
17:59Oh.
18:00Oh.
18:01Oh.
18:04Oh.
18:09Oh.
18:10Oh.
18:11Come on, Rem. Is that a coach?
18:15Oh.
18:16Is that it?
18:23It's enough, isn't it?
18:3125 years ago, I asked you to marry me, Anne.
18:34I loved you more than anything in this world.
18:38Even more than the brilliant career that everyone assured me I was going to have.
18:41Much more than the woman I eventually married.
18:44She was like a second prize, a very poor second prize, as it turned out.
18:48Do you really think that after all this time, all the loneliness,
18:54do you really think that I give a damn about what you've just told me?
18:59You've had a breast removed, Anne.
19:00You haven't lost your laughter or your soul or any of the things that made me love you.
19:10And I love you now more than I ever thought possible.
19:14Don't send me away, Anne.
19:16I don't think I could take it a second time.
19:26Well, I don't know.
19:27It's just not like Cass to blow up like that.
19:29It's got to be that shrink.
19:31Oh, he might have something.
19:33I don't know.
19:34I prefer the new Phyllis to the old, though.
19:36And if he's got something to do with that, well...
19:39Have you written to Scott yet?
19:40Yes, but I haven't heard from him, butch.
19:43What the hell's that?
19:44That one's in trouble.
19:47That's rib.
19:48It couldn't be.
19:49I mean, what?
19:49Cope doesn't do that.
19:51Oh, my God.
19:51Bobby's in there.
19:53Bobby?
19:54Bobby!
19:56Are you all right, Mum?
19:57He's banning me!
20:15Help me!
20:17Help me!
20:18Don't go right there!
20:20Don't go right there!
20:50Please, Ru.
20:53Oh, please, stop.
20:57Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
21:13Somebody!
21:17Somebody!
21:18Let's go where I am easy easy Bobby. Where are you?
21:34Okay, Bobby, just go over here to the door and I'll get you out, okay?
21:42Go to the security gate and get help, fast, quick, Bobby's alright, just take it easy.
22:10Miss Ferguson, are you there, Mitchell? You've got to come to Ripsell, quick.
22:38Cass?
22:40Yeah?
22:41Do you think everything's alright? No, it's gone awfully quiet.
22:45I don't know.
22:47Well, maybe Reb's dead, that's why it's quiet.
22:50No, no, it wouldn't be nothing like that, Pix. I reckon she's just had a real bad time from all them drugs.
22:55Oh, how awful.
22:56Yeah. Geez, I tell you, I wouldn't have helped give them to if I'd know they'd do that. Judy reckons she'd just be a bit happy.
23:02Well, I'm sure Judy and Myra wouldn't have either. Well, maybe it just got Mildred sitting there. I mean, well, tablets have a shelf life, haven't they?
23:11Yeah, I don't know, Pix, yeah, I suppose. I'm just glad it's all over now and Bobby's alright.
23:18Heavens, I thought Red was going to kill her.
23:20Bobby got lucky. She'd better watch out, but she's been using her luck up lately. I reckon it's gonna run out real soon.
23:27I just hope she doesn't need it. Oh, golly, she's lucky she has a friend like you, isn't she?
23:34Yeah.
23:36What's happened?
23:37King's having some sort of drugs, I think.
23:39Oh.
23:40Yeah, well, we've all seen that before, haven't we?
23:43Look, you wait here, I'll call an ambulance, all right?
23:46I'll get something for Mitchell too, she's had a rough time.
23:48Bobby's alright, isn't she?
23:50Bobby's fine, just take it easy.
23:52Get something to calm you down, eh?
23:54I'm not touching any drugs, no way.
23:56Yeah, it's not too pretty, is it?
23:58Look, we'll get you in another cell a bit later.
24:00Oh, please, Mr. Miniman, I'd rather not be by myself for a while, not just you.
24:05Yeah, you're fine.
24:17Anne Reynolds.
24:18No, of course not, Jim, what is it?
24:22Right, I'll be there in half an hour.
24:25Thank you, John, goodbye.
24:28Trouble?
24:29Oh, yes, I'm afraid, sir.
24:33I'm sorry.
24:35I'm gonna have to go in there straight away.
24:37Looks as though one of the women's OD'd on something.
24:40I'm sorry.
24:41I'm sorry, John.
24:42Really, I am.
24:43It's all right, Anne.
24:45I understand.
24:47You've got a job to do.
24:49Besides.
24:50There'll be other nights.
24:51What are her chances?
24:52Don't know, Ian.
24:53It would help if we knew what you'd taken.
24:54Mitchell, you were with her all the time.
24:55What'd you take?
24:56Coke.
24:57Coke.
24:58You sure of that?
24:59Pretty strange reaction.
25:00Come on, let's roll around.
25:01Mitchell, you better pull yourself together.
25:02You're gonna have to answer a lot of questions.
25:03Look, the governor will be here in a few minutes.
25:04I'll leave you to lock her up.
25:05Yeah.
25:06It's okay, Bobby.
25:07I think you'd be better off in the hospital tonight, wouldn't you?
25:08Thanks, Mr. Manning.
25:09Thanks, Mr. Manning.
25:10Thanks, Mr. Manning.
25:11Thanks, Mr. Manning.
25:12Thanks, Mr. Manning.
25:13Thanks, Mr. Manning.
25:14Gee, you were gone a long time.
25:15Who have they got now?
25:16Alice.
25:17You should have seen.
25:18She was acting that nervous.
25:19I reckon the cop is going to have to go.
25:20It's fine.
25:21Let's roll around.
25:22Let's roll around.
25:23Mitchell, you better pull yourself together.
25:24You're gonna have to answer a lot of questions.
25:25Look, the governor will be here in a few minutes.
25:26I'll leave you to lock her up.
25:27Yeah.
25:28It's okay, Bobby.
25:29I think you'd be better off in the hospital tonight, wouldn't you?
25:30Thanks, Mr. Manning.
25:35Gee, you were gone a long time.
25:40Who have they got now?
25:41Alice.
25:42You should have seen.
25:43I'm that nervous.
25:44I reckon the cops will think she's running her own dope ring.
25:46Oh, poor Alice.
25:47Poor Alice.
25:48Nothing.
25:49She was up to her neck running dope for Reb.
25:50Didn't the cops say how Reb was?
25:51No.
25:52Poor bitch.
25:53She could have croaked for all we know.
25:54Oh, don't say that.
25:55No.
25:56No, I wouldn't be that bad.
25:57Well, we'll have to keep our fingers crossed, eh?
25:58Yeah.
25:59And how?
26:00Come on, let's get back to work.
26:02Got to keep up our part of the bargain before we see Mrs. Davidson.
26:05Oh, cheer up, Bobby.
26:06Look, I saved my last two fantails for you.
26:09That'll make you feel happy.
26:10But anyway, I mean, you have your own cell now.
26:12That's wonderful, isn't it?
26:13I suppose so.
26:14Yeah.
26:15Are you all right, Bobby?
26:16Yeah.
26:17It's just this place is like a morgue.
26:19You should hear them in the workshop.
26:20They're almost ready to nail Reb's coffin.
26:21Oh, don't say that.
26:22It might happen.
26:23Must have been pretty scary for you last night, too.
26:26Listen, Bobby, why don't we ask the screws to see if you can share a cell with me tonight?
26:31You must be feeling pretty freaky about your own.
26:33That's the nicest thing you've ever heard.
26:34Oh, no, don't touch me, Aunt, please.
26:36Hunt, time for your session with Dr. Edmunds.
26:38All right, Mrs. Morris, I'll just put the...
26:40Now, Hunt.
26:41Okay.
26:42Reckon she's got a touch of PMT?
26:47I heard that.
26:49The rest of you can take those smiles off your faces.
26:52Unless you want to lose your buyout, too.
26:54Have I lost me buyout?
26:55Yes, for one week.
26:56Want to try for two?
26:57Now, get a move on.
26:58Get back to work.
27:00Honestly, I don't know if Mrs. Morris is Arthur or Martha lately.
27:06Yeah, well, it has to be something pretty serious to make her act like that.
27:09Maybe she ought to see that, Doc, look how he's sweetened up Phyllis.
27:12Huh.
27:14Are those bells still ringing about Doc Edmunds?
27:17Of course they are.
27:18You've got to admit, Phyllis is acting pretty weird.
27:20Nothing we can do until you hear from Scott, though, is there?
27:23No, unfortunately.
27:28Thank you, John.
27:30They're lovely.
27:32I'm sorry about last night.
27:34I should be giving you flowers.
27:36Oh, don't be silly.
27:37It's not your fault that I've fallen in love with a beautiful Korea woman, is it?
27:41Besides, we've got all the time in the world.
27:45Are you sure, John?
27:47I don't want you to feel obligated...
27:49Oh, come on, Anne.
27:50What does that make me, a one-night stand?
27:52Do you honestly think I swept you off to the bedroom if that's all I wanted?
27:55I just don't want you to feel that you owe me anything.
27:57I feel that...
27:59Oh, thank God.
28:01I'm making a fool of myself, aren't I?
28:05You're wonderful, Anne.
28:07Just wonderful.
28:09I'm sorry, I didn't know you're busy.
28:10That's all right, you're not interrupting.
28:11I've taken up enough of the Governor's time as it is.
28:12And I've got an appointment.
28:13I'll see you later, ladies.
28:14Charming as ever.
28:15Yes.
28:16Now, what can I do for you?
28:17I thought I should let you know that the police will probably be here all day.
28:18Oh?
28:19Yes, they want to question the other blocks as well.
28:20Apparently, they're determined to find out how such a large quantity of drugs got in.
28:21They're not the only ones.
28:22Well, I'll let you look after it.
28:23Okay.
28:24Have you heard from the hospital?
28:25Still unconscious.
28:26Apparently, it wasn't cocaine she took.
28:27They pumped his stomach.
28:28They're doing tests to find out just exactly what it was.
28:29They're doing tests to find out just exactly what it was.
28:30Okay.
28:31Have you heard from the hospital?
28:32Well, I'm very sorry, ladies.
28:33That'll tell people they're waiting for me for me.
28:35I'm going to know how they got into her.
28:36All right.
28:37The only ones.
28:38Well, I'll let you look after it.
28:39Okay.
28:40Have you heard from the hospital?
28:41Still unconscious.
28:42Apparently, it wasn't cocaine she took.
28:45They pumped his stomach.
28:46They're doing tests to find out just exactly what she did take.
28:49They had business.
28:50Ah, the front gate rang, Erica Davidson's here.
28:53Well, I'd better go and find out what she wants.
28:56As if we didn't know.
28:57I'm very sorry, ladies.
29:01I hope you haven't been waiting too long.
29:03No, we've just arrived.
29:04After you, Phyllis.
29:06Off you go, Hunt.
29:08I think I'll give it a miss this morning, Doc.
29:10Look, I don't know who you think you are,
29:12but you're not wasting anyone else's time today.
29:14Now, just get into that office.
29:15But I'm a volunteer.
29:16I don't have to if I don't want to do our Doc.
29:20A prisoner, Hunt, and you do what you're told, when you're told.
29:23Now, you've just got that ridiculous carry-on.
29:26Sorry, Doctor.
29:28It's a perfect example of what I was telling you about.
29:30But perhaps a stint in solitary might help her.
29:33No, no, leave her with me.
29:35After all, that's why I'm here.
29:38Well, I wish you luck.
29:43Now, get up, Phyllis.
29:46And sit in this chair.
29:55Nobody's going to hurt you.
30:00No, we'll take a closer look at the matter when we receive your official report.
30:14Now, who is replacing Keene, a spokeswoman, on the strike negotiations?
30:17Bryant and Desmond.
30:18Oh, that's good.
30:19That should make my job a lot easier.
30:19I wasn't looking forward to talking sense into someone like Keene.
30:21No, my only hope is that it has finalized quickly.
30:25It's causing a lot of unrest amongst the women.
30:26Yes, you've had a lot of pressure on you lately, haven't you?
30:28Unfortunately, there's going to be more.
30:29I would have warned you earlier, but I only just found out about it myself.
30:31What is this?
30:53Illegal immigrant deportation order?
30:57Well, surely they're not thinking of sending the woman here.
30:59I'm afraid they had no choice.
31:01She only came to the notice of the authorities when she attacked someone in the street.
31:05She's being charged with assault.
31:06But it says here that deportation's being arranged.
31:09Surely they could have held her at one of their own centers.
31:11I agree with you completely, but don't worry.
31:13She'll only be here for a couple of days.
31:14There's still some legal problems to sort out.
31:16Apparently, she's an East German citizen on a West German passport.
31:20As soon as they decide which country to deport her, she should be out of our jurisdiction.
31:25Well, I guess I'd better let Colleen know so she can make arrangements.
31:28Yes, that's a good idea.
31:29She should be here in a minute.
31:31You understand, Phyllis?
31:33They're not.
31:35Come on now, don't be frightened.
31:38Your bones are strong again.
31:41They will not break if someone touches you.
31:44You are strong again.
31:50Say it.
31:52Strong?
31:54Now, I'll take your arm, and then you'll see.
32:07There.
32:09There's nothing wrong with your arm, is there?
32:14The women are your friends.
32:22And you are their friend.
32:25They won't try to hurt you.
32:27My friends?
32:29Your bones were never fragile.
32:33Never.
32:35Nobody tried to break them.
32:37Your bones are strong.
32:43Strong?
32:46Those terrible dreams of people trying to hurt you
32:49are all gone.
32:51You're a strong, healthy, young woman.
33:01Now, I'm going to turn the music off.
33:06And when it stops, you'll wake up,
33:09and all your fears will be gone.
33:11You'll go back to your friends.
33:16My friends?
33:17What's your German like?
33:26Pardon?
33:27Our latest present from the hallowed halls of justice
33:30is an illegal immigrant who can only speak a few words of English.
33:33And we have about five minutes to decide what to do with her.
33:36Your time just ran out.
33:38Oh, God.
33:38All right.
33:39You look after the cellar location.
33:41I'll do the induction.
33:42It could have saved us all a hell of a lot of trouble
33:43if they just put on a plane and sent her home.
33:45Oh, sorry about that.
33:47Short notice.
33:48No, I agree with her.
33:49It's thrown us all for a loop.
33:51Right.
33:52Well, Gelschmidt, on the white line.
33:55Gelschmidt, it's me.
33:57It's all right.
33:58Over here.
34:00Doesn't she have any personal effects?
34:02They're sending them later.
34:05All right.
34:07Your name is Hannah Gelschmidt.
34:09Is that correct?
34:11Please?
34:12Your name.
34:14You.
34:15They took passport.
34:19I.
34:20My cousins.
34:22You fix?
34:25Uh.
34:26Well, no, no.
34:27I can't fix.
34:29I think this is ridiculous.
34:30I'm just going to read this.
34:31All right?
34:32You are charged with assault
34:34and are remanded to Wentworth Detention Center
34:36until your hearing or date of deportation.
34:38Is that correct?
34:40It's wrong.
34:41It's wrong.
34:42Not bad person.
34:45Not bad person.
34:46I don't know.
34:47Now, the department is as anxious as you are to settle this
34:50and come to some sort of an agreement.
34:52Well, this shouldn't take too long, then.
34:54Good.
34:55If you will give me the list of the changes the women would like to see,
34:57then we can decide whether the conditions are acceptable.
35:00Well, I think we should start with the biggest problem we've got here,
35:03which is boredom.
35:03Yeah.
35:04If we could have a worthwhile project for the women to do after working hours,
35:08it would ease a lot of the friction.
35:10What did you have in mind, Judy?
35:11Well, it'd have to be something where the women could earn a dollar.
35:14Why don't we get in some supplies and start the soft toy project again
35:17or even reopen the print shop?
35:19And where would the funds come from to finance these projects?
35:22We have done it before, Mrs. Davidson.
35:24We financed a whole paper once.
35:25I'm sure we can do it again.
35:27Yes.
35:28Well, as long as the activities don't interfere with the normal working hours,
35:31I can't see why not.
35:32They won't.
35:34Anything else?
35:35Yes.
35:36Minnie Donovan came up with an idea that I think could work.
35:39Oh.
35:40Go on, Judy.
35:42Why can't we have open family days out on the grounds once a month?
35:46It'd give the women a chance to have contact with their families
35:49rather than just maybe have a visit from them once or twice the whole time they're here.
35:53It'd certainly help with the readjustment problems our women have when they're released.
35:57Well, I can't see that being a problem as long as you look after the security arrangements.
36:03Of course.
36:05Well, if that's all, I can't see the department having too many objections.
36:11In fact, they'll probably be quite pleased that it was all settled so soon.
36:14Now, I'm sure we all have to break...
36:15There is one more thing, Mrs. Davidson, before the women will go back to work.
36:20And what is that, Myra?
36:22A 50% pay increase in all work areas.
36:26Well, it's only going to bring us into line with Woodridge.
36:31Yes.
36:31Well, I am sure you are quite justified in asking for a rise.
36:35But expecting the department to agree to 50% is ludicrous.
36:39Oh, hang on.
36:40I suggest you think about this a little longer.
36:43The department will probably agree to 10%.
36:47They may even go to 15%.
36:49But I can assure you that 50% is quite out of the question.
36:54Fair enough.
36:55But I'm not going to ask the women to go back to work.
36:59Not for that.
37:01It's 50% or no dice, Mrs. Davidson.
37:05That'll just bring us into line with the accepted awards set down by other prisoners.
37:08Yes, but...
37:09There are no buts, Mrs. Davidson.
37:10I don't see why the women at Wentworth should foot the bill for rises in other areas.
37:14Now, we'll go back to work while you think about it.
37:19But if the department doesn't come up with the goods, we're on strike.
37:23It's up to you.
37:23You speak English, do you understand?
37:51English.
37:53Now, you get undressed.
38:01Get in that shower and wash.
38:03Clean.
38:04You understand?
38:05I'm sorry.
38:07I'm sorry.
38:08I'm not understanding.
38:15Well, I'm not real good at something, but 15% don't sound like much.
38:19It's not.
38:19It's an insult.
38:20It's awful.
38:21I don't blame you for marching out.
38:23So what do we do now?
38:24Stop working again?
38:25No, we promised we'd keep working while they thought it over.
38:27Well, I hope they don't think it over for too long.
38:29You know it then, a lot.
38:30You can not pull anything like that.
38:31A little birdie has told me that Barnhurst is willing to come out in sympathy.
38:35Well, you know what I reckon?
38:36It wouldn't take much for everybody to go out.
38:38Hey, why don't we hold a rally and march all the way to government house?
38:42Yeah, flags screaming there and the banners waving around.
38:45I've always wanted to carry a banner.
38:48Do you think we could?
38:50Well, we can't right now.
38:51We've got to go to lunch.
38:53It's not a bad idea, though.
38:54Are you going to move or not?
38:56I'm sorry.
38:57What's the big hurry anyway?
38:59My business.
38:59You're laughing at me.
39:00I was being serious.
39:01People take notice of people who march for their cause.
39:04I'm sorry, Pixie.
39:05We weren't laughing at you.
39:06Love, street marchers have their good portals.
39:07Yeah, the only problem is, see, first we have to get this street.
39:10Now, I don't think the department's going to get this street.
39:12I didn't think of that.
39:14If only we could stage something in the prison grounds and make sure the press were there.
39:17Yeah.
39:17Maybe we could, but one thing at a time, eh?
39:19Yeah.
39:20I think the threat of the entire state prison system coming out is going to be quite enough.
39:24And for the moment, let's have lunch.
39:26The bell's gone, right?
39:27Yes, shall we?
39:29Okay, I'm done now.
39:33Now, you get the other women to help you with this.
39:35Just because you don't understand the language, there'll be no excuse if you break the rules.
39:39This is how you say jail book.
39:44It's a rule book.
39:45And you remember it, because you won't be traded any differently to the other prisoners.
39:49I am not murder.
39:51This is free country.
39:54Yeah, well, you should have remembered that before you go around attacking citizens.
39:56Now, you just stop that.
40:04If you're going to insult me, do it in English.
40:06It's not you.
40:08He was Nazi.
40:09Yeah, well, just make up your bed.
40:14The governor will say you after lunch.
40:15The governor will say you after lunch.
40:43well I think we've covered everything good luck with the new prisoner we'll need it well let me
40:52know how you get on with the department won't you I must say I was surprised that you only
40:56offered them 15 percent when the department was willing to go to 30 whose suggestion was that
41:01it was just to bring the women down to a more reasonable level I agree they're due for a rise
41:06but I think 30 percent is a fair figure to aim for don't you and what if the women won't
41:11compromise will the department pay up yes but you have to realize that what the department gives
41:17with one hand it takes away with the other I don't want to see that happen if the women agree to 30
41:23percent I feel quite sure all their demands will be met now I must be going I'll call you later
41:29about that proposal bye-bye goodbye well hi Bobby hi you're saying Cass no not since work
41:41why nothing hey what's the matter come on you can tell me it's just the cousin mate we used to be
