00:01Closer each day
00:04I'm in no way
00:08Can you tell me who was driving the car that struck Theo Poulos?
00:13Yeah, it's like Craig Wendell.
00:16Yeah, that's him, that's him.
00:18Look at me.
00:31Craig Wendell, I am arresting you for murder.
00:34You can get a conviction for Theo's family.
00:36But with my wife, all I have are Jo's recovered memories and we both know that won't hold up in court.
00:41You're gonna need a confession.
00:42It's not the first time you've been placed at the scene of a fatal road accident, is it?
00:46Who called me?
00:47Was my wife still breathing when you walked away from the crash that day?
00:52No comment.
00:56Your father arrested Wendell this afternoon.
00:58He's back at the station right now.
00:59He's in custody.
01:00Dad has arrested Wendell.
01:01He's gonna be in jail for a really, really long time.
01:03Get out!
01:04You are not welcome in this house and I will never forgive you!
01:08Get out!
01:09It wasn't just a random hit and run, it was deliberate.
01:18Yeah, it's why Leah kicked me out.
01:21It's my fault that Theo's dead.
01:23No, no, Lacey, it's not your fault, okay?
01:26You're not responsible for that scumbag's actions.
01:29I knew that he was dangerous.
01:32I still dragged Theo out there to confront him.
01:36I know I shouldn't have gone to Leah's place.
01:39His arrest won't change anything and it was dumb of me to think that it would.
01:45No, it wasn't dumb, alright?
01:46You were just trying to provide her some comfort.
01:49It's all still very raw.
01:53She'll come round, okay?
01:56I can't believe she'd just turn up.
01:59What was she thinking?
02:00I think she was trying to keep you in the loop.
02:02Oh, so I should just forget that this is all her fault?
02:04Leah?
02:05He'd still be alive if it wasn't for her selfishness and her stupidity.
02:09No, I think she was just trying to make you feel better, like Wendell being arrested.
02:13That's a good thing.
02:14Why are you making excuses for her?
02:15I'm not making excuses for her.
02:17No, she shouldn't have shown her face here today.
02:19Today of all days.
02:20She loved him too.
02:21It doesn't make this okay!
02:23Leah!
02:24Shut up!
02:25I don't want to hear any more from you.
02:26Everyone just go.
02:35Mate, I'm sorry.
02:36I just want to play catch up and I've said the wrong thing.
02:39Not your fault, mate.
02:40Why don't you blokes get some fresh air, eh?
02:45Sure.
02:46Yeah.
02:47Interview recommencing.
02:48How long's this gonna take?
02:49There's still a few more things.
02:50How many times do I have to say it?
02:51No comment.
02:52We found your car in the storage unit.
02:54Forensics are going over it now.
02:55What storage unit?
02:56I know nothing about that.
02:57Well, that's interesting because we have record of payment from your bank account for a facility
03:02in Reefs and Lakes.
03:03And the car is registered in your name.
03:04And the damage to that vehicle is consistent with the injuries sustained by the victim,
03:05Theo Poulos.
03:06Theo Poulos.
03:07You struck Theo Poulos with your car.
03:08I know it.
03:09How many times do I have to say it?
03:10How many times do I have to say it?
03:11No comment.
03:12We found your car in the storage unit.
03:13Forensics are going over it now.
03:14What storage unit?
03:15I know nothing about that.
03:16Well, that's interesting because we have record of payment from your bank account for
03:19a facility in Reefs and Lakes.
03:21And the car is registered in your name.
03:25And the damage to that vehicle is consistent with the injuries sustained by the victim,
03:30Theo Poulos.
03:32You struck Theo Poulos with your car.
03:35I know it.
03:36And you know it.
03:43Why did you ditch your car?
03:45Go to ground.
03:46I didn't go to ground.
03:48I was taking some mental health days.
03:50And then you just turned up at Theo Poulos' funeral.
03:53I wasn't there for the funeral.
03:54I was there to put some flowers in a friend's grave.
03:58What friend was that?
04:01No comment.
04:04And you ran from us because?
04:07Because you've been harassing me and I was scared that it was going to continue and it clearly has.
04:14We have an eyewitness council.
04:16I stopped denying what you've done.
04:17I didn't do anything.
04:18That girl is lying.
04:20And what girl's that?
04:24The woman you met that night is not a journalist.
04:28Her name is Lacey Miller.
04:30My daughter.
04:31My daughter.
04:32But you already knew that.
04:34And you also know that she's the daughter of Christina Langham.
04:37Who you left to die on Baxter Creek Road two years ago.
04:42Once forensics confirm Theo's DNA matches the blood we found on the headlight of your car.
04:47There isn't a court in this country that won't find you guilty for his murder.
04:57I want my lawyer.
04:58Of course you do.
04:59Do you know how they found him?
05:00I shouldn't give me any details.
05:01I'm sure Dad will fill us in later though.
05:02I'm gonna go to the station.
05:03Why?
05:04To see Dad.
05:05And to look that monster right in the eye.
05:06Come with me.
05:07I don't know what I would do if I saw him again.
05:08Hey.
05:09I know exactly how you feel.
05:10But this is everything we've been working towards.
05:11Sure, but...
05:12This is the man that took everything from us.
05:38That took everything from us.
05:45Wendell lawyered up before I could get him to talk.
05:51With all due respect, that means he gets away with killing my wife.
06:01Understood.
06:08Do you mind?
06:12I'm in the middle of advising my client.
06:14And I think we both know how inappropriate this harassment is.
06:18Not harassing.
06:19I just thought you'd like to know while you're advising.
06:22The DPP has just authorised me to charge your client in regards to the death of Theo Poulos.
06:28As discussed, our case is solid.
06:32You keep saying that.
06:33I'm sorry, sir. You've asked for your lawyer, so I can't talk to you.
06:38We're just waiting for confirmation.
06:41The blood on your client's car is Theo Poulos's.
06:44With that forensic evidence and the witness testimony, our case is watertight.
07:00My client has something to say.
07:08I did it.
07:14I hit the guy with my car.
07:22I panicked.
07:26I thought I was going to lose everything I'd worked for.
07:32Why?
07:32Because I also caused the accident that killed your wife.
07:43Tell me what happened.
08:03I was driving down Baster Creek Road and I looked down to change the music on my phone and when I looked back up, I was on the wrong side of the road.
08:23And we both swerved, but the other car lost control and ran off the road near the tree.
08:36What did you do then?
08:38What did you do then?
08:43I stopped.
08:47Ran over to it, but when I saw them, I panicked and I fled.
08:54You didn't think to call for hell?
09:00Even anonymously?
09:01You just left them both there, and one of them.
09:13My wife died.
09:14Craig Wendell, I am charging you with the murder of Theo Paulos, the attempted murder of Lacey Miller, and dangerous driving occasioning the death
09:39of Christina Langham.
09:55You'll spend tonight here in the cells until you're due in court tomorrow.
10:02I'm sorry.
10:03Take him through.
10:09So it's true, Dad.
10:14You finally got him.
10:16How?
10:18He turned up to Theo's funeral.
10:20Just like Mum's?
10:22Yeah.
10:23You said he was going to court as I'm being charged?
10:26Yes.
10:27For what?
10:27For everything.
10:30Really?
10:30Even Mum?
10:32He confessed.
10:35I can't believe it.
10:37Thanks to you.
10:39Don't say that.
10:41It's true.
10:42If you hadn't have done what you did...
10:44But Theo would still be alive.
10:50I see why Leah flipped out when Lacey came to the house.
10:53She blames her for what happened entirely.
10:57To you?
10:58To you?
10:58She was reckless.
11:06I don't understand if Leah can never forgive her.
11:10I mean, it's hard for everyone.
11:13For what it's worth, I thought to get together was a good idea.
11:17Yeah.
11:18I mean, it didn't end so well, but Leah was smiling there for a while.
11:23It's good to share stories about Theo.
11:25It was.
11:31I don't necessarily agree with it, but I get why you're angry at Cassandra.
11:37And even Lacey.
11:39But why the big spit at Justin?
11:42He's on your side.
11:43Yeah.
11:45I know.
11:46I shouldn't have snubbed at him.
11:49I'm just so...
11:51I'm so angry.
11:54Everyone and everything.
11:57It's his whole situation.
12:00I know, love.
12:01But don't push him away.
12:04He's not the enemy.
12:05And you're going to need him more than anyone.
12:11I know.
12:15So, what's going to happen at court tomorrow?
12:17I mean, he's already confessed, so...
12:19It'll be a formality, then there'll be the sentencing.
12:22When will that be?
12:23I don't know.
12:25How long do you think he'll get?
12:26You know what, girls?
12:27Just stop for a minute.
12:29It's over.
12:35No more questions about what happened on that day.
12:39No more guilt.
12:42No more anger.
12:45No more confusion.
12:52Dad, can I move in?
12:53Of course you can, Dom.
13:01Of course you can.
13:11Who stays after curtain call?
13:16So, this is the outside of the place I bought.
13:18I know it doesn't look like much, but...
13:20There's only a recording studio that does, eh?
13:22Yeah, I reckon.
13:29Hey.
13:31Hey.
13:32Mate, uh, how's Lacey?
13:35She's alright.
13:36Um, anyway, what are you two talking about?
13:38I was just showing Justin, uh, photos of the place I bought.
13:42Yeah, what do you think?
13:45Well, I mean, it'll be better once the fit-out's completed.
13:47Yeah, and once the tech guys arrive with the sound gear from Germany, right?
13:50Jack, it gives us time to wait for the paint to dry, you know, the furniture will be delivered.
13:54Fellas, fellas, fellas, this all, it sounds amazing, but I've got to pull you up there.
13:58I...
13:58Can't do it.
14:04I don't have the capacity for it, especially with everything that's going on.
14:09You know...
14:11Lee's got to be my priority.
14:15I really can't think about anything else.
14:17Of course, mate.
14:18Yeah, you...
14:19Take as much time as you need.
14:21Yeah, I'm happy to wait for you.
14:24I think you'll be waiting a while.
14:28I know.
14:29Lee wants to meet up.
14:30I've got to go.
14:31I hope she's feeling better.
14:34Thanks, Lachs.
14:35I'm sorry for Bailin.
14:40It's all good.
14:42Totally understand.
14:43I don't think that our heart was burning.
14:46Some say that it's everything
14:47That our time ran out
14:54Time ran out
15:02Time ran out
15:09I'm sorry about before.
15:14No, you've apologized.
15:16I just took everything out on you, and that's not for you.
15:26Please.
15:28I miss him.
15:32I miss him, too.
15:43Here we go.
15:49What does all make it official?
15:52You moving in?
15:53Please don't tell me you're having second thoughts already.
16:02No, I'm just worried about going back to my place to get my stuff.
16:09All of Theo's stuff will probably still be there.
16:15I don't think I can take it.
16:16I understand.
16:21What are you guys talking about?
16:24Getting Lacey's stuff from her old place.
16:27I'm not ready to go back there yet.
16:31Not yet.
16:33What if I go with you?
16:36Would that help?
16:37Why don't we all go together?
16:59I can't be here.
17:00I'm sorry.
17:01I can't do this.
17:01We're here, and we've got you.
17:08Why don't you sit down and write a note to your flatmates, explain what's going on, and we'll collect your things.
17:16Okay.
17:19Um, just the room down there.
17:22What the hell am I doing?
17:39What is the room?
17:43What?
17:43Um, just the room?
17:45I can't do this.
17:46Okay.
17:46Um, just the room.
17:47I can't do this.
17:49Dear Brie, Sonny and Dana, I'm really sorry, but I've decided to move out.
18:05I just can't be here without Theo.
18:11Well, I've got a feeling that everything's going to be okay now anyway.
18:14You've got a feeling?
18:15Yep, yeah.
18:16Okay, what makes you so confident?
18:20Because I know I love you.
18:46Here you go, Eddie.
18:53Hey, when do you reckon we'll be ready to open?
18:55Uh, I'm not sure.
18:57Hopefully the soundstage won't have too much to do.
18:58Have you seen the report?
18:59Uh, no, not yet.
19:01Okay, I'm sure you'll get it tomorrow.
19:02When you do, can you ask about soundproofing?
19:04I just don't want any complaints from boring neighbours.
19:06Sonny, mate, I love your enthusiasm, but, uh, this all just feels so wrong.
19:19What do you mean?
19:19Why?
19:21Justin's already bailed.
19:22To be honest, mate, my heart just isn't in it anymore either.
19:29Yeah, but I mean, you've put so much work into this.
19:32I mean, you bought a studio, Rem.
19:33You can't just walk away from...
19:35I'm done.
19:37Remi.
19:38No.
19:38Big day, huh?
19:55Yeah.
19:58I'm glad Wendell finally confessed, but...
20:01I'm really worried about Lacey.
20:07Me too.
20:09She's going to need a space for a very long time.
20:13Well, I'm not going anywhere.
20:16You all settled in?
20:19Yeah.
20:22Thank you for helping me with my stuff earlier.
20:27I thought the three of us could have a barbie tonight.
20:31I don't really feel like celebrating bad.
20:34I just mean a simple meal...
20:36where we can raise a glass to your mother...
20:41and to Thea.
20:42What do you say?
20:48Okay.
20:51Sure.
20:53Can you help me like the barbie?
20:55You okay?
21:07Yeah, I'm fine.
21:09Actually, I'm not fine.
21:10I don't know why I said that.
21:11Look, I know we didn't dig into anything too deep, but...
21:13if you're up for it now...
21:15I'd love that.
21:16Do you know what would really cheer me up?
21:18What's that?
21:19Watching your face while I play the voicemail from the wedding again.
21:22So you never want me to call you again?
21:25I'd hate that.
21:26Oh yeah.
21:27I'm nuts.
21:30Love that.
21:31What if they're tough?
21:32Yeah.
21:32Yeah.
21:32Alright.
21:32So.
21:33So.
21:34So.
