00:00I can't do it, Mum. I can't.
00:08You can. You can.
00:09But you don't know what it's like.
00:11I know damn well you won't hit 20 unless you get off it.
00:14So what? It's my life, not yours.
00:24In future, I suggest you confine your duties to matters that concern you.
00:28Will that be all?
00:30Yes.
00:34By the way, Governor, since you've been receiving information,
00:38I think there's something you should know.
00:41Oh?
00:42Well, none of us can be sure how you'll get on tomorrow,
00:46but just in case,
00:48I have already prepared my application for the position of Governor.
00:52Nicky!
00:57Miss Ferguson, quick!
01:01Nicky!
01:02Oh, my God, Shane, he's been poisoned.
01:03No, Nicky.
01:05You can't die.
01:06Look.
01:07He won't die.
01:08We'll get him to the vet straight away.
01:10Nicky, you just stay with him, and I'll call a taxi.
01:12Nicky.
01:13You can't die on me.
01:14Nicky!
01:15Nicky!
01:16Nicky!
01:17You can't die on me!
01:18Nicky!
01:19Nicky!
01:20Well, aren't you the lucky one?
01:21Oh, good day.
01:22I, um, made a mistake.
01:23I just thought this was my cell.
01:24I can't be in found this one before.
01:25Yeah, you made a mistake, all right.
01:27Oh, good day.
01:28I, um, made a mistake.
01:29I just thought this was my cell.
01:30I can't be in found this one before.
01:31Yeah, you made a mistake, all right.
01:33Now I'm going to give you lesson number one in keeping your nose out of other people's
01:56business.
01:57I wasn't pinching anything, Mari.
02:02Honest.
02:03What's that in your hand, then?
02:04You play lunch?
02:05Play lunch?
02:06Good one, Mari.
02:07Won't lie to all the others.
02:08It won't be easy, Warren.
02:09It's hard to talk with a mat full of broken teeth.
02:11Please don't hit me.
02:12I know I wasn't supposed to be in here, but I just come in to rig the bed, that's all.
02:15God, I've seen some jelly blubs in my time, but you're unreal.
02:18I think I'm going to enjoy this.
02:19Please don't hit me.
02:20I'll do anything you want on me.
02:21I can't stand pain.
02:22Shut up!
02:23I fell on some broken bottles when I was a kid.
02:25I'm not a coward or nothing, but I can't even think about pain.
02:30All right.
02:33I must be going soft, Warren, but maybe you could be useful.
02:37I'll do anything you want.
02:39Anything.
02:40I don't believe this.
02:45You're, uh, good mates with Rogers, right?
02:50Sorta.
02:51She went to my school.
02:52Why?
02:53Well, you're going to tell me everything you know about her.
02:56And her family.
02:57Where she lives, what she likes, what she hates, everything, right?
03:04Right?
03:05Right.
03:06I'll tell you anything you want.
03:08He hasn't made noise for a while, has he?
03:25Yeah, well, he's probably settling down.
03:27You sure?
03:28Sounds like he was choking before.
03:30Look, the vet would have had to make him sick to get rid of the poison.
03:33That's what we heard.
03:34I suppose so.
03:35Wish he'd come out, though.
03:37Sure he knows what he's doing?
03:39Who, Dr Dickinson?
03:40Yeah.
03:41Of course.
03:42Then how come we're the only ones here if he's so popular?
03:46Because it's after hours.
03:48Now stop worrying.
03:49How's Nicky?
03:50Is he all right?
03:51Well, he's feeling a bit sorry for himself right now, of course, but he'll be right as rain in the morning.
03:57You'd better leave him with me overnight, though.
03:59Overnight?
04:00Why?
04:01Come on, Shane.
04:02Doctor knows what he's doing.
04:03Can you pick him up in the morning, Mrs Munro?
04:05I'd like to keep him under observation.
04:07Yes, of course.
04:08Actually, the name is Ferguson.
04:09You may remember I used to bring my dog here.
04:12Well, that's right.
04:13You belong to Major, don't you?
04:15Well, not anymore.
04:16He had an accident some time ago.
04:18Oh, I'm sorry.
04:19He's a beautiful animal.
04:20What about Nicky, Doc?
04:22Can I see him?
04:23All right, but don't get him too excited.
04:26Just through the door there, young fella.
04:29A boy and his dog, eh?
04:31Now, I'd better get you to give me his parents' address.
04:33Oh, no, it's all right.
04:34I'll take care of any expenses.
04:36Shane's staying with me while his parents are overseas.
04:39Never fails, does it?
04:41The minute they leave, the trouble starts.
04:43Oh, well, I don't mind, really.
04:45He's a good kid.
04:57Yes, who is it?
04:58Oh, come on, open up.
04:59This isn't right.
05:02Yes?
05:03Tracy!
05:04Oh, my God, it is!
05:06Come in.
05:08I hardly recognised you.
05:10Oh, don't tell me I've changed that much.
05:12It's only been, what, three years?
05:14Well, if you say so, right now, I'd believe anything.
05:16Oh, it is good to see you.
05:18What have you done, ladies?
05:21Oh, birds, for heaven's sake, take that thumb out of your mouth.
05:25We'll get a problem and see you.
05:27God, they never let up, do they?
05:29As if we haven't got enough troubles.
05:31Well, are you all right in here?
05:33I shouldn't think so.
05:34It doesn't matter.
05:35It's only me.
05:36Oh, here we go again.
05:37All right, Dot.
05:38What's the matter now?
05:39Nothing much.
05:40Don't worry about it.
05:41I suppose I'll cope.
05:42I have the past 25 years.
05:44Mind you, I wouldn't be surprised if this bed finishes me off.
05:48Still, I'm only a number on the office file, aren't I?
05:52Delete 1194, found dead during morning patrol.
05:57Don't do that to me, Dot.
05:59Deaths cost so much paperwork.
06:01Very amusing.
06:02I wonder how many women my age are forced to sleep on a bed like this.
06:06But you've got the best bed.
06:08Didn't you change with Judy?
06:09Yes, she certainly did, and I don't know what she's going on about.
06:12The beds are exactly the same.
06:13It's all right for you youngsters.
06:15You can cope with a thing like this.
06:16Oh, I'm a youngster now, am I?
06:18Oh, I think I'll leave you to it.
06:20Now, Dot, don't you go dying on me.
06:22I've already made up the work roster for tomorrow.
06:25Good night.
06:26Good night.
06:27She's about as funny as dandruff, that one.
06:31The trouble is, they get it too easy in here.
06:34You try to do the right thing, never complain,
06:37don't give any trouble.
06:39It makes no difference.
06:40They still lump you in with the Myra Desmond's of this world.
06:43Now, I would be careful what I'm saying about her.
06:46She's coming back, you know.
06:47I wouldn't bank on that, dear.
06:49When the cops catch up with her, it'll be shoot first,
06:51and our question later...
06:52Oh, for God's sake!
06:54Did you have to put your denture in my coffee cup?
06:57I didn't know it was your cup.
06:59Anyway, what's the fuss about?
07:01It's only one little tooth.
07:03It won't hurt you.
07:04I have it in my mouth all day, and I'm still alive.
07:08Oh, well, I didn't think of that, did I?
07:10I don't know what I'm complaining about anyway.
07:12You've got my bed, you might as well have my cup.
07:14Thanks, Jude.
07:15But I think I'll have my coffee in the white mug,
07:17if you don't mind.
07:19I know I could have used Dad's contacts to get work,
07:22but I just wanted to do it myself, I suppose.
07:25The old Morris tenacity, eh?
07:27Well, how did you go?
07:30Not a job here and there.
07:32But nothing worthwhile.
07:34You know, it's true what they say, Meg.
07:36I know employment's hard to find,
07:38but if you've been in prison, it's almost impossible.
07:40At least you didn't throw the towel in.
07:42Oh, don't worry, I nearly did.
07:44But then Dad sent me a ticket to go and visit him in Indonesia.
07:47How is he?
07:48Same old Bob, lovely as ever.
07:51Trish is nice too.
07:53Trish?
07:54His wife.
07:55Held my breath for a minute, but we got along pretty well.
07:58You know, I'd always really thought that...
08:00Is there something wrong?
08:02No, no.
08:04The truth is I didn't know he'd married again.
08:06You're joking.
08:07You mean he didn't write and tell you?
08:09Well, no.
08:10Unless something went wrong with the mail.
08:11Oh, Meg, I'm so sorry, I just thought that you...
08:13No, it's all right, right.
08:14Don't be silly.
08:15Just got a bit of a shock, that's all.
08:17I hope she's nice.
08:19She's okay.
08:20But if you ask me, he had the best when he was married to you.
08:24Thanks.
08:25Well, I can see we've got a lot to catch up on.
08:28Hope you'll stay with me whilst you're in town.
08:30Well, actually that was going to be my next question.
08:32You don't mind, do you?
08:34Of course not.
08:35You're still mad at me, aren't you?
08:43If you want a life saver, you wouldn't be taking me last one.
08:45I've got two left.
08:48Oh, come on, Bobby, I said I was sorry.
08:51And I said okay, all right?
08:52What do you want?
08:54I want to be friends.
08:58Bob?
08:59Listen.
09:00When they took me to hospital, I had friends coming out of me bloody ears.
09:04Where are they now?
09:05Myra's gone over the fence, Pixie's gone.
09:08Yeah, they've taken the best mate ever out of me whole life
09:10and then stuck her in a nut house.
09:12What do I want mates for?
09:13Too much trouble.
09:15Yeah, well, that's in here, but you'll be getting out soon.
09:18Yeah.
09:19It's all right for you.
09:20You've got this big deal family you're always raving on about.
09:23If I wanted someone to talk to, I'd have to chat up a hoon in a disco
09:26or something like that.
09:29Gee, that'd be awful.
09:31Everyone's gotta have a friend.
09:35I had one once.
09:38He was only little, but he was gonna be me friend.
09:42I was gonna call him Jack.
09:45But he died.
09:56Hey, Wall.
09:57Wall in, mate.
09:58Yeah.
09:59Wake up.
10:00You'll be as stiff as a board there.
10:01Oh.
10:03Oh, hell, it's late.
10:04What time is it?
10:05It's after eight.
10:06Here's your cup.
10:07After eight?
10:08I told you to...
10:09She's asleep, thank God.
10:11How is she?
10:12Sweat's pouring off her.
10:13It's powerful, of course.
10:14It'll get worse too.
10:15You all right?
10:16What do you think?
10:17It's me.
10:18It's me.
10:19It's me.
10:20It's me.
10:21It's me.
10:22It's me.
10:23It's me.
10:24What do you think?
10:25It's my 16-year-old daughter in there.
10:28I don't know, Wall.
10:29I don't think I can put her through much more of this.
10:32Oh, come on.
10:33You're not gonna give up now, are you?
10:34This rescue team needs you.
10:37I don't think I've got what it takes.
10:39Don't talk garbage.
10:41Think of the facts.
10:42One, you're killed for the girl.
10:44Two, you escaped from jail for her.
10:46Yesterday, I was amazed at your guts.
10:48Today, you're talking about giving it all up.
10:49No.
10:50It's true what they say about the quiet ones, isn't it?
10:55Oh, you're right.
10:57I won't give up.
10:58I'm just so bloody tired.
11:00Yeah, well, I told you, you should have woken me earlier.
11:02Now get back to bed before I do my block.
11:05You'd bugger to live with, wouldn't you?
11:07That's what my ex-wife said.
11:10I wonder what made her say that.
11:12Get to bed.
11:14Oh, good morning, Heather.
11:15Oh, hi, Ben.
11:16Oh, I'm not rushing off, are you?
11:17I brought that book in.
11:18Book?
11:19Oh, Borstal.
11:20Yes.
11:21Oh, thank you.
11:22Great.
11:23Yeah.
11:24Hey, you're all right.
11:25You look a bit edgy.
11:26Oh, I am.
11:27Well, what's wrong?
11:28Ferguson.
11:29I've made up my mind, Den.
11:30She's not going to beat me.
11:31Oh, that's the spirit.
11:32I'll show her once and for all.
11:33She can't scare me off the job.
11:34Oh, I am.
11:35Well, what's wrong?
11:36Ferguson.
11:37I've made up my mind, Den.
11:39She's not going to beat me.
11:40Oh, that's the spirit.
11:41I'll show her once and for all.
11:42She can't scare me off the job.
11:44She can take her scare tactics somewhere else.
11:46I've had it.
11:47Oh, sounds like it'd be quite an event.
11:49Yeah.
11:50Hey, why don't you wait till the television people get here
11:52and they could film it?
11:53What are you talking about?
11:54Oh, Lee Templer's interview, right?
11:57Right.
11:58Now, she's got Meg Morris in a bit of a flap.
12:00She's been left holding the baby.
12:01What do you mean?
12:02Well, Mrs Reynolds had to go to the department,
12:04saw Meg's acting governor.
12:05Oh.
12:06Do you know, there is no way they'd have led a TV crew
12:09into a boston like this?
12:11Yeah.
12:12Now, mind you, I think it's a good idea.
12:13Well, good for you.
12:14I think it's ridiculous.
12:16Well, now, who else have we got on this morning, eh?
12:19Oh, yes.
12:20Radcliffe, O'Shea, Ward and Rogers.
12:24Well, at least there's three there
12:26who'll be able to handle any trouble if it comes up.
12:29All right, Mrs Ferguson.
12:31That's it.
12:32Now, I know I'm new to this job
12:35and I know I've got a lot to learn.
12:37I'm glad you noticed.
12:38I haven't finished yet.
12:40If you have some constructive criticism to give me,
12:43then go for your life.
12:45Otherwise, keep your mouth shut and get off my back.
12:53Right little terror when she gets going.
12:55Isn't she?
12:59All I'm asking is you give him a chance.
13:02Yeah, I am.
13:03Same chance he gave my baby.
13:04It was an accident, you know.
13:05Yeah, well, Cass didn't say it that way.
13:07Hello, Tommy.
13:08That sheet's about as straight as a dog's hind leg.
13:10Oh, rack off, Granny.
13:12Cheeky little bugger.
13:13I was only trying to help.
13:15Anyway, I shouldn't be doing that job.
13:17Those damn things don't do a thing for my lumbago.
13:19Oh, lumbago, is it?
13:20It was arthritis last night.
13:22Yes, and you wouldn't believe what it's like
13:24having the two of them together.
13:25Oh, get lost, will you?
13:26Lost where?
13:27Any moisture in the air and off they go.
13:29It's anybody's guess which will carry me off first.
13:31Sit on it, will you, stupid old winger.
13:33Yeah, just go back to the dryers.
13:35Now, just a minute.
13:36Let's have a bit of respect for the oldies around here.
13:39Well, since when were you worried about respect?
13:41Yeah.
13:42Funny, isn't it?
13:43Still, that's what they taught me at the convent,
13:45so if Doddy wants to swap jobs, that's all right with me.
13:47And that's all that matters, isn't it, Brian?
13:49There is nothing wrong with her back.
13:51Oh, I see, so I'm a liar now.
13:53Oh, shut up, you stupid old bitch.
13:56Anyway, I've got a better idea, Brian.
13:59Why don't you work the dryers?
14:01Get lost, you know she can't do that.
14:02It'll kill her.
14:03Well, you don't believe Grandma, so why should I believe you?
14:05Because it's true.
14:06She's got a pacemaker.
14:07Oh, forget it.
14:08Look, I'll do the dryers.
14:09Let the silly old bugger do the folding if she wants.
14:12There you are.
14:13Wasn't so hard, was it?
14:23No!
14:24Let me go!
14:25No, Wally, please, let me go!
14:27Let me go!
14:28Mummy, please, please, I can't do it.
14:30I can't do it now.
14:31Please, I'll do it now.
14:32I can't.
14:33On the back!
14:34My stomach!
14:35Just one shot, just one shot.
14:37Please!
14:38Not now!
14:39It's gotta be now, Kay.
14:40Leave it any longer and it's gonna be twice as bad.
14:42You can do it now!
14:43Love me!
14:44What are you trying to do?
14:45Kill me!
14:46Kay, Wally, help me!
14:47Yes, right.
14:48No!
14:50Let me go, you creep!
14:51Kay, please, he's trying to help!
14:53Help?
14:54You call this help?
14:55What's with you anyway?
14:56It's he the reason you killed Dad!
14:58Stop it, Kay!
14:59You hate me for the trial, don't you?
15:01No wonder Dad left you.
15:02You didn't love any of us.
15:03You were too wrapped up in your precious PRG!
15:05Don't listen to her, Mara!
15:06Oh, no wonder!
15:07Scring around with that bastard!
15:09Molly, listen to her!
15:10What do you say?
15:11No, it isn't Kay talking, it's a junkie!
15:13And if you leave her alone, she'll be a dead junkie!
15:15That's right!
15:16You're killing me, you bastards!
15:17Use your head, will you, Mara?
15:19If you'd rather see her, then just say so!
15:21We'll let her go!
15:22You killed Dad, didn't you?
15:23You tried to kill Gloria, but you couldn't, could you?
15:25I'm glad they put you on work!
15:27I'm sorry!
15:32I'm sorry!
15:33Oh!
15:34May we do it!
15:35Please!
15:36May we do it!
15:37I couldn't do it!
15:38Oh!
15:39Oh!
15:40Oh!
15:41Oh!
15:42Oh!
15:43Oh!
15:44Oh!
15:45Oh!
15:46Oh!
15:47Oh!
15:48Oh!
15:49Oh!
15:50Oh!
15:51Oh!
15:52Oh!
15:53Oh!
15:54Oh!
15:55Oh!
15:56Oh!
15:57Oh!
15:58Oh!
15:59Oh!
16:00Oh!
16:01Or, oh!
16:02Oh!
16:03Oh, no, thanks!
16:04I've got work to do.
16:07Oh!
16:08Perhaps I will join you.
16:09I've got a few minutes to spare?
16:11Yes!
16:12Coming off!
16:15Look...
16:17I hope you don't mind, but, well, I think you've got it wrong about Heather.
16:21She really is serious about her work, you know?
16:23What? Oh. Yeah, maybe I was a bit rough on her.
16:26Still, she's going to get worse from the women.
16:28Well, you'd better watch it, then. A little scrapper, don't you think?
16:34Um, look, I was, um, telling a friend of mine about your work in England.
16:39And, uh, she thought you might be able to help her.
16:43Well, if I can't, what's the problem?
16:47Well, she's been landed with, um, an 11-year-old runaway.
16:51Oh, he's a nice enough kid, but, um, well, legally she can't keep him
16:55and she doesn't want to send him back to his father.
16:58Oh, why not? Bit of a villain, is he?
17:01Could say that.
17:03Look, she doesn't want to, of course, but, um,
17:07what's likely to happen to the boy if she were to hand him over to an institution?
17:12Oh. Oh, I see what you mean.
17:17Well, we did all we could for them in Borstal,
17:19but let's just say no institution's a good home for her, lad.
17:23A few of them try to make something of themselves,
17:25but it's an uphill battle to go against the pressure from the other lads.
17:29Now, too many of them go under for my liking.
17:32No, I'd say, uh, have another word with the father.
17:36Oh, here we go. Tea for two.
17:40You'll have to watch it, Dennis, lad.
17:42Keep talking to yourself and they'll put you in an institution.
17:44Oh, come on, Mitchell, get a move on. You're keeping me waiting.
17:49Steve, I can't make them dry any faster.
17:51Perhaps you shouldn't have put so much in.
17:52Oh, shut up, Dot.
17:53I was only trying to help.
17:55Don't. Bugger it. You can have them whether they're dry or not.
18:00Watch it.
18:00That's the last time I get talked into doing maternity.
18:03It stinks. Talk about the Pong Express.
18:05Oh, my God, who filled that up?
18:09I did. Did I do something wrong?
18:11Oh, well, what do you reckon? How much detergent did you use?
18:14I don't know. Five or six cuffs.
18:15Five or six cuffs?
18:16What?
18:17Well, turn it off or we can still see it.
18:19I reckon we should shoot it because it's frothing in the mouth.
18:23I'm not a little game, are you, Warren?
18:25Oh, no, I was just going to turn it off.
18:27Oh, that was quick thinking.
18:29Who filled the machine up?
18:31Hmm?
18:32Well, if that's the game you're going to play, you're all on a charge.
18:36I did, Miss Ferguson, but I didn't mean to.
18:38Honestly, I didn't.
18:39That's quite enough, Warren.
18:41You're in enough trouble as it is.
18:43Misuse of government property is a very serious offence.
18:46You're on a charge.
18:57Well, thank God she keeps falling asleep.
18:59I suppose it's nature's way for the body to protect itself.
19:05Yeah.
19:06Just wish I didn't have to keep waking her up to force the liquids down her throat, that's all.
19:14Come on, Mum, you're doing just fine.
19:17Oh, no, I'm not.
19:18I'm scared stiff, Wally.
19:20I've seen a lot of kids through turkey, but never as bad as this.
19:24Her pulse has gone berserk.
19:25I don't know if her heart can stand it.
19:26Well, what do you want to do?
19:30I can take her to a hospital if you want.
19:32Nah, she'd just check herself out again.
19:34Not if I stay with her.
19:35Oh, no, the cops would make the connection straight away.
19:38You'd be in the slammer and then she'd have nobody.
19:41What about Alan?
19:42No, no, it wouldn't be fair on him, not the way she is at the moment.
19:49Hey, it's not fair on you either.
19:52Why don't you go home and leave us to it?
19:54What?
19:54Sit on the other side of the mountain worrying about you?
19:56No, thank you.
19:58Oh, you're a bloody nuisance, do you know that?
20:03After my husband, I thought I had men all worked out.
20:06Go to bed and try to get some sleep.
20:17Okay, ladies, we don't pay overtime.
20:19Knock off and have some lunch.
20:20What are we having, Mr Crooksank?
20:22I'm starving.
20:23Oh, meat pies and stews.
20:24Isn't that what all you Aussies eat?
20:25You see what I mean, meat pies?
20:27That's going to be great for my ulcer, isn't it?
20:29Why can't we have fish and chips or something like that?
20:31Oh, come on, Doddy was joking.
20:32I'm joking.
20:35Mr Crookshank, I wanted to apologise to you about what I said about Bobby.
20:41I know it was an accident.
20:42We all do.
20:43Thanks, Judy.
20:44That's appreciated.
20:48I'll tell you something, though.
20:50I wish Bobby would let me have a talk with you.
20:52She's a very unhappy girl, isn't she?
20:54Well, that's going to take time.
20:56As a matter of fact, none of us are too good at the moment.
20:58I think we're at an all-time low.
21:00Anything to do with Mari Winter?
21:04Understood.
21:05But be careful, will you?
21:07I don't think she'd stop at anything.
21:10Anyone that can come out in the open and try to bribe an officer soon must be pretty sure of themselves.
21:14You?
21:15I know it's my turn not to answer you.
21:17But watch your step, eh?
21:20Yeah, I will.
21:22Thanks.
21:22For heaven's sake, Joan, I'm busy.
21:30Look, either help me or let me get on with it.
21:32I've just about had enough this morning.
21:33TV cameras, microphones, cables...
21:35Look, all I'm saying is that Warren should be punished as soon as possible if we...
21:39She put too much powder in the washing machine.
21:41Is that what she says?
21:42Yes.
21:43But I'm sure no one's going to believe it.
21:44And why not?
21:46Has anybody told her how much powder to put in?
21:48Has she ever used the washing machine before?
21:49Oh, that's got nothing to do with it.
21:51Look, I'm presenting an official charge.
21:52Now, you're the acting governor.
21:53Are you going to do anything about it or not?
21:55No, I am not.
21:57Anne will be back soon.
21:58If you wish to pursue it, then speak to her.
22:00Personally, I think you're wasting your time.
22:02Yeah, with her attitude to discipline, I'm sure I am.
22:06All right, Joan, that's enough.
22:08Now, Anne Reynolds is governor of this prison.
22:11Not for long.
22:12It'll be very interesting to see how she gets on with the department.
22:16And what's that supposed to mean?
22:18Let's just say that when I'm governor,
22:21you're going to have to smarten up your ideas, Morris.
22:23And you'd better make it soon, because that's not too far off.
22:27Ferguson, don't threaten me.
22:30It won't work.
22:32Because the day that you sit in that chair
22:34is the day I leave.
22:39Then I'll just have to get by without you, won't I?
22:42But don't worry.
22:44I'll scrape through somehow.
22:53I promise you, it's just another interview.
22:58You won't like it.
22:59It's not worth watching.
23:00Are you kidding?
23:01Support your local TV star.
23:03That's our motto.
23:04Yeah, but she must have talked about more than that.
23:06God, you're in prison.
23:07Who cares how you do your nails or how you tint your hair?
23:09She does.
23:11Mind you, I don't blame her.
23:12Poor love wears a wig.
23:14Really?
23:15A wig, false fingernail's eyelashes, the works.
23:19Do you know, I always thought that.
23:21Well, I was pretty sure she wore a wig,
23:23but I didn't know about the other things.
23:24I mean, wouldn't it be dreadful to have a job where...
23:27Everybody looked at you.
23:30I'm sorry.
23:31I didn't realise I was carrying on to her.
23:33That's all right.
23:34Don't worry, Mrs. Barry.
23:35I'll let you know when I find out anything else about her.
23:39Here's Topo.
23:40Yeah, this time she's going to get it.
23:41I've been waiting for her to get out at the pound.
23:43Oh, leave her alone, Bobby.
23:44It's her father lost me kid, remember?
23:46I owe her.
23:47We all do.
23:48Gee, she looks shaky.
23:49Think she meant to go that far with Phyllis?
23:51Who knows?
23:53When the VJ's finished with her,
23:54she's going to be a permanent fixture around this place.
23:57Tough.
23:57Will you just leave her alone at least until Myra comes back?
24:01No, she'd just better hurry up, that's all.
24:03You've been having a rough time.
24:04How do you feel?
24:05I'm here, Anna.
24:06Yeah.
24:07Good thing, too.
24:09Perhaps now we can get down to the serious business of selling some drugs.
24:13You interested?
24:16Why not?
24:17I'll be here for a long time.
24:18Might as well make it a dollar.
24:21Get Miss Ferguson to come to my office, will you?
24:23I don't believe this.
24:25Are you actually telling me that Joan went to the department?
24:27I am saying that that woman presented the department with an official complaints list a mile long,
24:34accusing yours truly of more departmental indiscretions than I knew existed.
24:38She really is after your position?
24:40She's applied for my position.
24:42What?
24:42How did she word it?
24:43In the likely event of Reynolds being stood down, I feel that my expertise and years of service will be considered before a replacement is...
24:54Come in.
24:56You wanted to say me, Governor?
24:58Yes.
24:59Close the door.
25:00I have to see Mrs. O'Regan, so I'll be...
25:02No, Meg.
25:04I want you to witness this.
25:06I don't want Miss Ferguson running to the department with any more lies.
25:10I didn't lie, Governor.
25:12Every item on that report was...
25:13That report was a masterpiece of verbal manipulation, Ferguson, and you know it.
25:18Not one charge was substantiated or reported in its correct context.
25:22And was that the department's opinion?
25:24You want a fight, Ferguson?
25:28Right.
25:29You've got one.
25:31It's been a long time since I really put the gloves on, but I don't think I've forgotten anything.
25:36Now get out!
25:44Anne, what did the department say?
25:48If there's another foul-up within the next six weeks, I'm out.
25:54Bobbie, are you okay?
25:59I was a bit worried that you weren't in the laundry.
26:01Not feeling poorly, are you?
26:03I've only been gone a minute.
26:04Give us a go, will you?
26:06It's all right.
26:07I wasn't checking on you.
26:10I just thought you might be feeling...
26:10You just thought I was bludgeoned.
26:12Well, I wasn't.
26:13I ran out of ciggy pack.
26:14It was all right.
26:15Look, Bobbie, we'll have to have a talk sooner or later.
26:19Why?
26:20If you really believe that I hurt you on purpose, then you must think it was my fault you're losing your baby.
26:29Now, believing something like that could mess you up for the rest of your life.
26:33It was an accident.
26:34And I swear to you, no-one is sorrier than me.
26:38I wouldn't bet on it, screw.
26:39What about Cass?
26:40She went right off her bloody head.
26:41I suppose you're sorry about that, too.
26:43Don't give me that crap about being sorry.
26:45I'm the one who's sorry.
26:46I had a baby living inside of me, a real little baby.
26:49I didn't know who the father was, but I loved it.
26:52I really loved it.
27:01Where do you reckon babies go, Mr. C?
27:05Do you reckon there's anything in this religion thing?
27:07I don't know, Lush.
27:14I really don't.
27:19I wasn't fooling around, honest, Mrs. Reynolds.
27:21I must have just been listening to the others yakking on and lost count of how many cups I put in.
27:27I suppose it is possible, but Miss Ferguson seems to think you were treating it as a big joke.
27:31Oh, well, you would have had to be there.
27:34I mean, it was funny.
27:35It was like an old Jerry Lewis movie or something.
27:37It was oozing down all over the floor.
27:39Did the others laugh, Miss Ferguson?
27:41No, Governor.
27:42Only Warren.
27:45Well, anyway, I reckon I'd pack it in if I couldn't have a good laugh in here.
27:49I'm sorry, Mrs. Reynolds, but I get bored stiff.
27:52There's nothing to do.
27:53It doesn't seem to worry the others.
27:55Well, they're used to it.
27:57I was on the go the whole time before I come here.
27:59Now there's nothing to do except watch telly or read a book or something.
28:03And what would you rather be doing?
28:05Oh, I don't know.
28:06Sit around and get fatter, I suppose.
28:09Hey, that's a thought.
28:11I used to go to aerobics classes every Tuesday night.
28:14I was just thinking, wouldn't it be good if we could have something like that in here?
28:19I could arrange the classes myself.
28:21You're here for punishment, Warren, not exercise.
28:25Do you really think you could organise it?
28:27Oh, yeah.
28:28I've got tonnes of gear at home and I could get me dad to bring in the cassette so we could do it properly.
28:34All right.
28:34As from now, you've got an aerobics class on your hands.
28:38Oh, beauty.
28:40Am I still in trouble?
28:43No, I'm not going to punish you this time.
28:44Just be more careful in future.
28:47Thank you, Miss Ferguson.
28:48You can take her back now.
28:49Governor, don't you think...
28:50Oh, and if Warren wants to talk to her father about the tape,
28:53you take care of it, all right?
28:54Yeah, well, it's all smooth sailing in this block.
28:59Picked up nine customers before, don't you?
29:01Wasn't even trying.
29:03Great.
29:04Well, why are you whispering?
29:05Are you scared or something?
29:08Jeez, you girls must be a bad lot.
29:09You've got the old rev, you're scared stiff.
29:11I'll tell you what's going on.
29:15I've decided to investigate the advantages of free enterprise.
29:19Any objections?
29:22Me, you see, I told you there was no commas in here.
29:26So if you girls have got the money,
29:28I've got the dope.
29:30No.
29:31No dope.
29:31Let go of it.
29:32I'm in my car, I will.
29:34You take one more step and I'm going to turn that dryer on.
29:36Now what's it going to be?
29:37Oh.
29:40Good.
29:40Now, like I was saying,
29:45you want to do business, you see the old rev here.
29:49COD.
29:50No returns, no refunds.
29:53And everyone will be happy.
30:04Right, Pearson.
30:05Over here on the white line, please.
30:08Oh, come on, Pearson.
30:09There's nothing to worry about.
30:12I'm sorry.
30:13I didn't know you were speaking to...
30:16I'm sorry.
30:18That's all right, my dear.
30:19Now, you just answer when I ask the questions.
30:22Right?
30:24Your name is Edna May Pearson.
30:26Is that correct?
30:27Edna, yes.
30:29And you've been convicted of attempted murder
30:31and sentenced to 18 months' imprisonment.
30:35Is that correct?
30:35Oh, come on, Pearson.
30:41It's a bit of a shock for everyone at first,
30:43but as soon as we get this out of the way...
30:45Yes, of course.
30:47I'm sorry.
30:49It's just like a bad dream.
30:51Everyone keeps saying that I murdered my husband
30:56and I didn't...
30:57I couldn't...
30:59Not Harry.
31:01Now, of course.
31:02Well, look, I'll just repeat the questions
31:05and do answer, all right?
31:07You have been convicted of...
31:10Oh, look, you remember all that.
31:11Just answer yes or no.
31:13Yes.
31:14Good.
31:16Well, now, we've got that out of the way.
31:20Now, thank you.
31:23All you have to do is shower and change
31:25and then I'll take you to see the sister.
31:27Do you feel like that?
31:28Yes.
31:31You've been very kind.
31:34Do you think...
31:36I'm sorry, I don't know your name.
31:37Oh, Barry.
31:38Mrs. Barry.
31:39Mrs. Barry, do you think I could see my husband?
31:43Oh, well, no, not just yet.
31:44We'd like to get you settled in first,
31:46but I'm sure you'll see him soon.
31:48Oh, I've read all about him.
31:50He sounds a wonderful man.
31:52Yes.
31:53Yes, he is.
31:55So why would I want to poison him?
31:59Oh, yes.
32:00Oh, come on.
32:01What's the matter with you?
32:02Oh, you need a pair of shorts or something?
32:04Oh, stick a sock in it.
32:05We don't even know what you're talking about.
32:06What's aerobics when it's at home?
32:08Oh, aerobics, not aerobics.
32:10Do you sure it can't?
32:12It's just a new name for exercises, Bobby.
32:14You mean like touching your toes and stuff like that?
32:16Forget it.
32:17Oh, look, it's much better than that.
32:19You can do it to music and everything.
32:20Look, it's better than going to a disco.
32:22Aye, you ought to put your name down for that, Bryant.
32:25Might get rid of some of the fat between your ears.
32:28Exercise?
32:28Good.
32:28That's all I need, isn't it?
32:30It's bad enough standing up here all day with me varica's veins the way they are.
32:35Oh, Dot, you are in a bad way.
32:37You wouldn't believe the way I have to suffer, Miss Rogers.
32:40It's not right, a woman of my age, having to work like that.
32:44And do you think they'll let me see a doctor?
32:46Oh, come now.
32:47I just checked the sick list.
32:49You were on every single one of them.
32:50He's not a doctor.
32:51He's a flaming quack.
32:52I need a specialist.
32:54Do you think you could do something, Miss Rogers?
32:57What do you reckon, Heath?
32:58Well, if old Dot here got into some exercises, it'd do a good, wouldn't it?
33:01Well, I don't suppose it'd do any harm, as long as you weren't too rough with her.
33:05Oh, what's the use?
33:06It's like bashing your head against a brick wall.
33:08Forget it.
33:09See, I told you I'd make his laugh.
33:18Come on, now.
33:19Who's signing up for aerobics?
33:22I thought today would never end.
33:25Thanks.
33:25Copy forms XF319 white three copies.
33:29What do you want those for?
33:30Don't stop me.
33:31Charged sheets SW428.
33:37Send the pink copy to the office.
33:38Retain the green copy.
33:39Well, it's the other way around, and charge sheets are 482s.
33:44Oh, God, I give up.
33:45Why do they have to have numbers anyway?
33:47Well, because if they didn't, there wouldn't be as much confusion.
33:49I mean, simple.
33:51I'll buy that.
33:51Well, I suppose I'd better see what an XF319 looks like in cabinet, right?
33:56Right.
33:58Uh-uh.
33:58I hate to tell you this, but somebody has been playing jokes on you.
34:06Oh, Struth.
34:08How long's that been there?
34:09Oh, work it out for yourself.
34:11Where have you been?
34:12Well?
34:14Oh, well, I can't be sure.
34:15I mean, I've been all over H Block.
34:17Do you want me to tell you who it is?
34:19No, thanks.
34:20I think we're thinking of the same person.
34:22Oh, God, I feel like a dummy.
34:24Well, if it makes you feel any better, it's happened to us all at one time or the other.
34:27But don't you think that you'd better go...
34:28Oh, my God, what if Miss Ferguson had seen it?
34:31Precisely.
34:32So I think you'd better do something about it, don't you?
34:34I mean, this person is really taking things too far.
34:37And it's not that I mind a joke with the women, because I don't.
34:40But we can't afford to lose face.
34:42Now, you do understand that, don't you?
34:44Yeah.
34:45Sure, don't worry.
34:46I'll do something about it.
34:47Well, I'll have to, won't I?
34:49Otherwise, I'll have to fill out an XF423 resignation form.
34:53Oh, I would remember that one, wouldn't I?
34:56Right.
34:57How many you got there?
34:59Eleven.
35:00Two more.
35:01That's thirteen.
35:03Ten bucks a line.
35:04That's, uh, 130 bucks I want to see in your hot little hand when you get back.
35:09I can count.
35:11Right, then get going.
35:13And no credit.
35:13It's me you're talking to.
35:16Used to have a little racket runner myself, remember?
35:18Oh, yeah, very little.
35:20Well, at least I didn't run around telling screw lovers I was peddling dope.
35:24Bryant!
35:24Oh, she's a pussycat.
35:26Forget Bryant.
35:27She knows the score.
35:28What about Warren?
35:30I've already had a chat to our little bunny rabbit.
35:32Oh, yeah, and she loves chatting to screws.
35:34Especially the new one.
35:36I told you.
35:37I'm going to take care of Warren.
35:39How?
35:40Reb, you've got dope to sell.
35:42Now go and sell it, okay?
35:43All right.
35:56Oh, Miss Rogers.
35:57What can I do for you?
35:59What did you just hide, then?
36:02This?
36:03Oh, just me fags.
36:05Well, you can't be too careful.
36:06There's a real bad criminal element in this place.
36:08Yeah, and I came down in the last shower, too.
36:11Open it up.
36:12No.
36:13Don't be silly, Winter.
36:14If I slap a charge on you, you'll have to open it sooner or later.
36:17Well, let's make it later, then, okay?
36:19All right, outside and take that with you.
36:21Oh, that was good.
36:22No, I mean, really, you almost looked like a real screw that time.
36:25What are you up to, Winter?
36:26Well, you know you can't win, you know you can't win, don't you?
36:29Oh, I can win all right.
36:31Because I don't have a dear old widowed mother to think about.
36:34Do you want me to go on?
36:37Yeah, you may as well.
36:39Good.
36:40Because it gets even better.
36:43Their mare's the little kid brother.
36:46I mean, it'd be awful if something happened to him while he was out on his bike delivering
36:49his papers, wouldn't it?
36:50Who told you this?
36:51Oh, I've got contacts.
36:54Outside contacts.
36:55Who drive cars right at little boys on bikes.
36:59Now, I'd like to help keep your family healthy.
37:02But I reckon it's worth a few favours in return.
37:06Do you still want me to open this?
37:15Oh, hello, Tracy.
37:16Did you manage to find everything?
37:18Sorry to sneak up on you, but I finished work early and thought you might like to go shopping
37:22or something.
37:22Oh, yes, I...
37:24Is this her?
37:26Yes.
37:27Meg, I'd like you to meet Mark Sanders.
37:29He's a friend of mine.
37:30Don't be stupid.
37:31We can't bluff this through.
37:33Will you calm down?
37:34What's going on?
37:35I'm sorry, lady.
37:36I think you'd better sit down.
37:38I really don't want to use this.
37:47Let's face it, viewers.
37:53Prison life would be hard enough for anyone.
37:55But how does Australia's most beautiful woman cope with the hardships that can only be found
38:00behind bars?
38:02Well, you heard her own words.
38:04She actually claims to have made friends in there.
38:06Who knows?
38:07At least the other inmates will get a taste of high fashion for a change.
38:11But who was it that said,
38:14What's a nice girl like you doing in a place like this?
38:17Because I couldn't agree more.
38:19Chin up, lady.
38:20We all miss you.
38:23That's it.
38:24Now you can see what I mean about being a waste of time.
38:26Waste of time, you buggered.
38:28She's given me a great idea.
38:30Good.
38:30Keep it to yourself.
38:31No way.
38:32Why can't we have high fashion in this place?
38:35Maybe it's got something to do with the clothes we have to wear.
38:37So we tizzy them up a bit and put on a fashion parade.
38:42You'd show us how to do it, wouldn't you, Lee?
38:44Sorry, love.
38:45I'm on holidays.
38:47Oh, well, well.
38:48Look who's just joined us.
38:50Place is crawling with TV stars, isn't it?
38:52This is Edna Pearson, everyone.
38:55Would you look after Jude, please?
38:56Sure, yeah.
38:57Marlene, can I see you, please?
39:00Oh, sure thing.
39:01Talk her into it, will you, everyone?
39:03Bye, Edna.
39:04Bye, Edna.
39:05Hello, then.
39:06I'm Judy Bright.
39:07Oh, hello.
39:09I'm sorry.
39:11I'm afraid I'm not coping with all this very well.
39:14Come on, none of us do when we first come in here.
39:17Come and meet the girls, huh?
39:19Yeah, OK.
39:20I stuck the sign on your back.
39:22But, jeez, I only did it for a joke.
39:24Well, quit it, will you?
39:26I'm not kidding, Marle.
39:27I'll lose my job if you don't stop messing around.
39:29Oh, God.
39:30We used to carry on like this all the time when we were at school.
39:33Marlene, this is a prison.
39:40And I am a prison officer.
39:42At least I'm supposed to be.
39:44But I'm starting to look like a clown now.
39:46Will you cut it out?
39:49Struth, you're fair dinkum, aren't you?
39:52Yes.
39:54And another thing.
39:55Have you been talking about me to the other prisoners?
39:58Of course I have.
40:00We used to be mates.
40:01They all talk about their mates.
40:02Murray Winter?
40:04Have you said anything to her?
40:07Well, jeez, I don't know.
40:08She might have been there when I told the others.
40:10Look, I've said I was sorry.
40:11Can I go now?
40:13Yeah, I...
40:14I won't report you this time.
40:16But no more mucking around, OK?
40:20Yeah, sure.
40:21No worries.
40:21See you later.
40:22You idiot Warren.
40:24Watch where you're going.
40:25Sorry, Miss Ferguson.
40:26This may come as a surprise to you, Miss Rogers,
40:32but it is considered very unwise
40:34to mix with prisoners on a social level.
40:37I was only...
40:37It is also considered very unwise
40:40not to report a prisoner for mucking around.
40:45However, I must agree with you on one thing.
40:48You are beginning to look like a clown.
40:50But how can they say you poisoned your husband
40:57if he says you didn't?
40:58Yeah, I've got to admit it,
40:59the whole thing seemed cockeyed to me.
41:01I've been watching it on the telly.
41:03I couldn't believe it when they found you guilty.
41:05Oh, thank heaven someone believes me.
41:07You've no idea what that means to me.
41:09But didn't your husband say something
41:11about taking the poison by accident?
41:13In his workshop, yes.
41:15Well, that must have been what happened.
41:16We can't think of any other explanation.
41:18Well, I'm with Bobby.
41:19I just can't see how they can find you guilty.
41:21Yeah, it's bloody amazing.
41:23Well, my barrister said it looked bad
41:25because of the death of my first husband.
41:29Oh, bloody hell.
41:30Did you knock him off too, did you?
41:32Don't take any notice of Red.
41:34No, we don't.
41:35No, you see, Morris, that was my first husband.
41:38He was chronically ill for the last three years of his life
41:41and then he took poison and killed himself.
41:45Yeah, so what's that got to do with your present husband?
41:47Oh, Judy, I wish I knew
41:49if only someone would explain it to me.
41:54I won't ask what you've done.
41:55It's obviously a robbery of some kind.
41:57T.A.B.
41:58Meg, believe me, I am sorry this had to happen,
42:01but we really had nowhere else to go.
42:03Why did you do it?
42:04Why did you let him talk you into it?
42:05Other way around.
42:07I talked him into it.
42:08What?
42:09It wasn't hard, Mrs. Morris.
42:11I've been out of work for three years
42:12and some people turn very funny
42:14when they see you carrying around something like this.
42:16Well, what do you expect?
42:18I mean, would you hire an addict?
42:19I'm a diabetic.
42:21But he may as well be a junkie.
42:23People just don't want to know.
42:26Bloody hell.
42:27Five hundred and seventy lousy dollars.
42:30At least it's in small notes.
42:33Oh, Mark, can't you go and do that somewhere else?
42:39Here, take this.
42:41And, Mrs. Morris, don't you try anything, please.
42:47Mark!
42:47I told her not to.
42:57I told her!
43:06Need a hand, Winter?
43:07No, thanks.
43:09Oh, Black Queen.
43:11Just what I needed.
43:14It's not like you to be sitting around doing nothing.
43:18Besides, I'd heard you'd gone into the
43:20free enterprise business.
43:25Don't worry.
43:26I'm not about to try and stop you.
43:29In fact, I might even be able to help you.
43:32You know what I'm selling?
43:35Yes, I do.
43:37The offer's still open.
43:39What's your cut?
43:41Keep your money.
43:42That's not what I'm after.
43:44All right, old boy.
43:46What do you want?
43:48As much trouble for Anne Reynolds as you can stir up.
43:51And I mean real trouble.
43:54You mean like, uh, the odd riot or two?
43:58Yeah, sounds good to me.
44:00Anything you have to remember is to keep my name out of it.
44:03You do that.
44:05And you can do all the business you like.
44:09Deal?
44:12Deal.
44:13He used to give me roses
44:22I wish he could again
44:28But that was on the outside
44:33And things were different then
44:39On the inside
44:40On the inside
44:40The sun still shines
44:43And the rain falls down
44:49But the sun and rain are Christmas too
44:53When morning comes around
44:58Last night
44:59Last night I dreamed we were together
45:03Sharing all the love
45:04Sharing all the love with more
45:08Till I had to face the nightmare
45:13Of waking up with more
45:15Of waking up alone
45:19On the inside
45:20On the inside
45:20The roses grow
45:23They don't mind the stony ground
45:29But the roses here are Christmas too
45:33When morning comes around
45:38From brings up with more
45:43You can live on
