00:01Mrs. Pearson, may I be the first to congratulate you.
00:06My... my appeal?
00:08Has been upheld.
00:09Your husband's on his way down to get you now.
00:11Oh, that's wonderful.
00:12Great! Hey, everybody! Edna's gonna be released!
00:15Let's hear it for her! Hip hip!
00:17Hooray! Hip hip!
00:18We made a deal.
00:19And I don't take too kindly to people who back down on deals.
00:23If that's what you're doing.
00:25Either you keep your end of the bargain or I shout so loud
00:28they're gonna hear me in bloody Darwin.
00:31Did you get me?
00:34Oh! I feel like I've got a knife in me gut.
00:37Well, that does it then. If the cook is crook, we're all in trouble.
00:40I'm serious, dude. Would you get me some help?
00:42Oh, come off it, rabbit. We've got lots of food.
00:58All right to come in, Jenny?
01:01Yes, of course, Mrs. Reynolds.
01:07It should be all right.
01:08They've called Dr. Trembath in to check her over just in case.
01:12You have any idea what brought it on?
01:14Well, symptoms definitely point to some sort of poisoning.
01:17But I can't find any sign of a bite, so she must have ingested it.
01:20The meat?
01:21No, I don't think so. We'd have a lot more cases.
01:24You know, it's strange. I had Harvey and Jenkins down with similar symptoms yesterday.
01:28But it can't be coming from the kitchen or we'd have everyone sick.
01:32Well, we'll just have to wait and see what the doctor says.
01:35Can I have a few words with Warren?
01:36Sure. I'll just be next door in case you need me.
01:38Right.
01:40You feeling any better, Marlene?
01:43Yes, thanks a bit.
01:45Got any idea what made you sick?
01:47Yeah, the meat.
01:48It's the only thing she could have got hold of.
01:51What are you saying?
01:53I'm saying that she tried to poison me.
01:55Who?
01:57Are you sure you're not just letting your imagination run away with you?
02:01Look, I know it sounds silly, Mrs. R, but it's not the first time she's...
02:05Oh, what the hell. Jude thought I was off with the fairies too.
02:11Marlene, it's not that I don't believe you.
02:14But how can I even check your story out if you won't tell me who's trying to poison you?
02:18Can't say.
02:21It's dumb, isn't it?
02:24Yes, it is.
02:27Alright, you get some rest.
02:28Oh, come on.
02:29There's your mate with a gut ache.
02:30Oh, it's not like you to be concerned, Winter.
02:31Why not?
02:32Just glad she's getting some of her own for a change.
02:33She's been giving me a gut ache for weeks.
02:34Jude, how's my lead?
02:36I don't know.
02:37Myra's trying to find out.
02:38I was just saying goodbye to Edna.
02:39Oh, yeah, lucky bitch.
02:40You know, every time someone gets out, it reminds me how long I'm really stuck in his dump.
02:45Hey, come on, don't be like that.
02:46You admitted that you did it.
02:47You're not going to stick your way forever.
02:48And you had good reason.
02:49They'll take that into account.
02:50Yeah, they'll just take your licence away so you can't run down any more pedestrians.
02:51Why don't you shut up?
02:52Yeah, shut your mouth, Fran.
02:53Let me yank them all the wishful thinking.
02:54Oh, bitches.
02:55Cheers.
02:56Cheers.
02:57Cheers.
02:58Cheers.
02:59Cheers.
03:00Cheers.
03:01Cheers.
03:02Cheers.
03:03Cheers.
03:04Cheers.
03:05Cheers.
03:06Cheers.
03:07Cheers.
03:08Cheers.
03:09Cheers.
03:10Cheers.
03:11Cheers.
03:12Cheers.
03:13Cheers.
03:14Oh, bitches.
03:15She's right, though.
03:16No way I'll be let off.
03:17Oh, dear.
03:18Well, Marlene must be okay.
03:19She's still here.
03:20Food poisoning or something.
03:21Hey, you all right, Lou?
03:22She is getting her own back.
03:23Must have drunk some of her own barley water.
03:25God, do you think she was telling the truth?
03:27What?
03:29Do you feel like a cuppa?
03:31No, after the news, thanks, love.
03:32Okay, well, I'm going to go and see how my name is.
03:35Oh, I wish you luck.
03:36They wouldn't let me in.
03:37Yeah, but I've just developed a sugar minute.
03:38Oh, Mr. Cookshank, I'm glad you're here.
03:40Could I go and get some aspirin?
03:42I've got a real banging headache.
03:43Oh, sorry, Brian.
03:44Did I have to wait?
03:45The Governor wants to see you.
03:46Uh, you, you too, Mitchell.
03:51I wonder what Mrs. R wants them for.
03:53Maybe she's found a way of getting rid of the rubbish around here.
03:55There's three down, two to go.
04:01Hey!
04:02Watch it!
04:03Now, if you don't learn to shut your mouth, Winter,
04:06the next time I do that, it'll be with your face.
04:09I'm so scared.
04:10You've got good reason to be.
04:12Yeah?
04:13Well, you'd better make the most of it, Desmond,
04:15because you're not going to be playing top dog games around here much longer.
04:18Oh?
04:19Like to tell me why?
04:21And spoil the surprise.
04:22You ought to know by now that's not my style.
04:27Righto, ladies.
04:28You've got a bit of cleaning up to do.
04:30Your top dog just made a mess on the floor.
04:39Now, that's three people, Judy, in two days.
04:42Of course, Warren's the only one claiming she was deliberately poisoned,
04:45but Sister thinks they could be linked.
04:47Yeah, well, it's possible.
04:49Oh?
04:51Look, at first, I didn't believe Marlene when she was saying
04:53that someone had spiked her drink, but, well, it's all looking a bit sus now.
04:57Did she say who it might have been?
05:00Yeah, but I think it's a stab in the dark.
05:02I mean, that person would have no reason.
05:05Was it Bobby Mitchell?
05:07Of course not.
05:10Now, just a minute.
05:11Is that why you've got Bobby outside?
05:13You couldn't believe that Bobby would have anything to do with it, Mrs Reynolds.
05:16We've got to face facts, Judy.
05:18Mrs Barry told me it was Bobby who cooked Marlene's steak.
05:22Well, that doesn't prove anything.
05:23I know.
05:24But it doesn't look good when you link up the poisonings.
05:28Just remember, Harvey and Jenkins are friends of Keane's,
05:31and Warren shares Mitchell's cell.
05:33It's quite probable she's trying to get rid of anyone
05:35who could give evidence about her attack on Keane.
05:38Well, she didn't attack Keane.
05:40I'm sorry, Judy.
05:41The police don't believe that,
05:42and I don't think they're going to believe she's innocent of this either.
05:45How's that all about?
05:57Just giving Edna a second send-off.
05:59Her release made the news.
06:00Well, obviously you haven't got good news from Mrs R.
06:06No, I haven't.
06:08Mrs Reynolds thinks that Marlene was deliberately poisoned.
06:11Is she alright?
06:12Yeah.
06:13Well, does she know who did it?
06:15She thinks Bobby did it.
06:16Oh, come on, Bobby.
06:18What did you talk her out of it?
06:20Oh, hell, the poor kid.
06:22But who would want to poison Marlene?
06:26Yesterday, she said that Edna tried to poison her.
06:29Oh, but why?
06:30When her appeal was coming up.
06:33Her appeal.
06:35Obviously, the rabbit has seen or heard something she shouldn't have,
06:38and Edna's tried to stop her from blowing her story.
06:40Yeah, and do you realise that that makes Edna as guilty as hell?
06:43Thank God she isn't here.
06:45You're joking.
06:46Now everyone believes she's innocent.
06:48She'll probably try again on dear Harry.
06:54So, where's the rope?
06:55Pardon?
06:56Well, you all reckon I tried to poison rabbit, don't you?
06:58So why don't you get a rope?
06:59Calm down, Bobby.
07:00No one believes that bull.
07:02That's right, love.
07:03We know who did it.
07:04We're going to back your story all the way so they don't pin it on you.
07:06Oh, you, you two-faced bitch.
07:08It was you who lagged to the screws.
07:10Well, you did pretty good, lady,
07:11because now they're trying to lumber me with three attempted murders.
07:13You hear that? Three!
07:14Bobby, come on.
07:15Better if I talk to her.
07:16Oh, God.
07:18Don't tell me there's trouble in the camp.
07:20Just shut up, Mari.
07:22Go away, Jude.
07:23There must be some way we can prove it was Edna.
07:26Yeah, sure.
07:28Jane?
07:29Dinner?
07:30Yeah, coming.
07:31Oh, come on, mate.
07:32It'll get cold.
07:33Well, of course you're red-handed this time, didn't I?
07:34But I'm not taking nothing.
07:35I might have been a fool to believe that you were above stealing yesterday, but I'd have
07:41to be an utter idiot not to believe my own eyes, boy.
07:43But I'm not stealing it.
07:44But I'm not stealing it.
07:45I'm putting it back.
07:46It's true.
07:47Okay.
07:48I did steal it yesterday, but now I'm putting it back.
07:49I wouldn't have done it.
07:50Only I thought you weren't getting nothing for me birthday.
07:51I told me matey you were getting me something real beaut.
07:52I'm sorry.
07:53It was dumb.
07:54It was dumb.
07:55Yeah, it was dumb.
07:56And it doesn't cancel out the fact that you took it yesterday.
07:57Yeah, I know.
07:58But I'm not stealing it.
07:59But I'm not stealing it.
08:00I'm putting it back.
08:01It's true.
08:02Okay.
08:03I did steal it yesterday, but now I'm putting it back.
08:07I wouldn't have done it.
08:09Only I thought you weren't getting nothing for me birthday.
08:12I told me matey you were getting me something real beaut.
08:16I'm sorry.
08:17It was dumb.
08:20Yeah, it was dumb.
08:22And it doesn't cancel out the fact that you took it yesterday.
08:25Yeah, I know.
08:28Alright.
08:29I won't punish you this time because you were honest about it.
08:32After you were caught anyway.
08:34But if it ever happens again, you won't get off so lightly.
08:38Gee, thanks Aunty Jane.
08:40I'll never do it again.
08:41Cross me heart.
08:42Okay, let's eat.
08:45Hey, do you reckon we'll have time to go to Luna Park after tea?
08:50Oh, get out of that kitchen.
08:52Go on, get out.
08:54Anyone heard how a warrant is this morning?
08:57Oh yeah, sorry.
08:58I forgot.
08:59Um, Elaine said she's bouncing around the hospital.
09:02She's going to get out.
09:03They've got a lot to keep that one down.
09:05Oh love, what did Mrs M want?
09:06I've got some props after breakfast.
09:08Don't worry, they can't pin the poisoning on you.
09:10Oh why not?
09:11They didn't have any trouble blaming me for trying to kill Reb.
09:13Come on honey, we're working on that.
09:14Yeah, we just have to find something that'll convince them it was Edna.
09:17Oh jeez, you lot make me laugh.
09:18There's no way you can prove that.
09:19So how the hell are you going to prove it wasn't me?
09:21I cooked rabbit's meat, remember?
09:24We're going to have to do something quick.
09:26Otherwise she'll admit to it just to get everyone off her back.
09:28Can't we go to Mrs Reynolds?
09:29It can't be lagging if Edna's gone, can it?
09:31Yeah, well I wouldn't care if it was lagging.
09:33All I'm interested in is Bobby.
09:34Oh spare a thought for Edna's husband.
09:36God yes, she's probably giving him breakfast right now.
09:39For Pete's sake we have to ring him, warn him or something.
09:43He's not going to believe us.
09:44Even the courts couldn't convince him.
09:46We have to at least let him know what happened in here.
09:48It'll be up to him if he wants to believe it or not.
09:50Going to ask to see Mrs Reynolds after breakfast?
09:52Yeah, I wouldn't mention the phone call to Harry though.
09:54I don't think she'll go along with it.
09:55I am going to see her about Bobby.
09:57That is top priority.
09:58We'll worry about Harry later.
10:03Oh come on Shane, you'll be late for school.
10:07Do I have to?
10:09I feel real cruel.
10:11Mate, the only way you'll get a day off is if you break out in purple spots.
10:14I'm not kidding.
10:16Me throat's feel sore and I've got a real bad headache.
10:19Let me check.
10:24Oh yeah.
10:25Now when do you feel off?
10:27I think you've got a temperature.
10:28Then I can stay home?
10:30Better still, you can go to bed.
10:32I think you're in for a bow to the flu.
10:34I'll ring work and tell them I can't make it.
10:36I'm not a baby.
10:37Geez, Aunty Jane.
10:39Alright.
10:40But you stay rugged up and I'll ring you at lunch time to see how you are.
10:44Go on.
10:45We'd better buzz off or you'll be late.
10:47Alright, I'm going.
10:49And you, straight to bed.
10:55So what proof do you have?
10:57Well, none really.
10:59Just that Marlene was scared silly for days before the last attack.
11:02And we know it wasn't Bobby, Mrs Reynolds.
11:04You've got to help her.
11:05Miss Ferguson won't lift a finger to help her when she takes over.
11:08We don't know yet that Miss Ferguson will be taking over, Judy.
11:11And I can't drop these charges, nor can my replacement just on the say-so of Mitchell's friends.
11:16Well, then why can't you at least take our word about the barley water?
11:19Edna had to have fixed that.
11:21Please, Mrs Reynolds, you've got nothing to prove it was Bobby.
11:23You have to believe us.
11:24I'd like to, Milsom.
11:26But it seems all too convenient to point to Edna Pearson as soon as a poisoning happens.
11:30I only hope for everyone's sake that Bobby isn't trying to use her as a scapegoat.
11:35She's certainly had more motive than Edna for the poisonings.
11:38Yeah, but you can't believe-
11:39No, Judy, I'm sorry.
11:40There's nothing I can do.
11:42Hi.
11:43Uh, got a minute?
11:44If it's up to the cops, I've got 30 years.
11:45They didn't believe you about my life.
11:47Why should they?
11:48I'm the person who goes around pushing people downstairs, remember?
12:05Look, I'm really sorry about-
12:08Oh, sure you're sorry, Reb.
12:09You're all hearted.
12:11That's why you got me in this mess, isn't it?
12:13Because you figured I liked the place so much I wouldn't want to leave.
12:15Yeah, well the cops got it wrong.
12:17Look, I've even told Rena it wasn't you.
12:19Oh, how'd you expect me to swallow that?
12:20I'm still on a charge for it.
12:22Look, I can't help that.
12:24Go ask her if you don't believe me.
12:25So you told her I didn't do it?
12:27So you told her who did do it, right?
12:29No, I can't, Lack.
12:32Just tell me who did it.
12:33I'll fix the bitch.
12:34I can't.
12:35Look, I'm sorry, but I can't.
12:37I can't.
12:38I know they're coming down heavy on you.
12:40I've tried to fix it.
12:41Honestly, if I could-
12:42Oh, stop your stupid excuses!
12:44Oh, Miss Rogers.
12:49I, uh, don't believe I've thanked you properly for saving my life during the riot.
12:54Pardon?
12:55Um, well I guess I was just lucky that I turned up when I did, eh?
13:00Oh, I'd say it was a little more than luck.
13:04You know, at first I was rather worried that, uh, that you might not be able to handle this job.
13:11However, I'm very happy to say that I was proved wrong.
13:19In fact, it'll be a pleasure to have a young, competent officer like yourself on the team when I take over the Governor's seat.
13:25Um, it'll all be pretty much of a muchness, won't it?
13:28I mean, the rules and all will stay the same when Mrs Reynolds goes.
13:31Oh, there will be a difference, of course.
13:34No, the rules won't change, but, um, I'll be seeing that they are carried out to the letter.
13:39Won't be easy with some of the troublemakers we've got.
13:41On the contrary. Anyone who doesn't tow the line gets shipped straight to Blackmore.
13:46Yeah, that means Winter doesn't have a hope.
13:49Oh, that one's ticket is already booked.
13:52That's good news at least.
13:54Well, it should have been done at the first sign of trouble.
13:57And that, Miss Rogers, is what I mean about things being run properly when I take over.
14:02Um, Miss Ferguson, it reminds me, um, knowing you're such a stickler for the rules and all,
14:13why didn't you hit the riot alarm when the ruckus started?
14:17I mean, you were right there, weren't you?
14:19I, um, I didn't have much of a chance, did I, with those animals beating me senseless?
14:26Yeah.
14:28Right.
14:29Hey, did Rachel get to phone Harry?
14:44Yeah, she's there now.
14:46God, I hope there aren't too many H. Pearsons in the phone book,
14:48but I'm pretty sure Edna said they lived in Waddleton.
14:50I wish I'd been in the staff room when Mrs. Barry sprung her looking up the bumper.
14:54Fancy buying a story like that.
14:55Well, why not?
14:56Everybody uses phone books to do bust exercises.
14:59Almost everybody.
15:01Anyone going to check us?
15:03No, I think even check us is beyond me today.
15:06Mara, is, um, something bothering you?
15:10No, love, just the opposite.
15:11Kay's gone back to school and she's got a part-time job as a cashier.
15:14Oh, that's great news.
15:16But now Mum pays the price.
15:17I face the VJ day after tomorrow.
15:19Oh, God, I'm sorry.
15:20I forgot all about that.
15:21Yeah.
15:22Well, let's hope it's Bateman.
15:23At least he's got some sort of heart.
15:25Hey, Brand, heard what they're going to do to your scissor-happy friend?
15:28Listen, Kelly, how would you like your teeth shoved down your throat?
15:32Are you either going to pack Mitchell off to a mate in the loony bin?
15:34I'm just...
15:35Bitches, can't wait till me bats turn, can you?
15:38We're not going to turn ours punk.
15:39Might get stabbed, bashed or poisoned.
15:41They're probably...
15:42That is not going to solve anything.
15:44I'm sick to death of the stinking bitches.
15:46Wish they hadn't packed me off to the madhouse.
15:47At least they don't have cash.
15:48She's the only decent mate I got.
15:50Oh, hang on.
15:51That's not true and you know it.
15:52Oh, you lot don't give a stuff about...
15:53Cut it out, Bobby.
15:54We're doing everything we can to get you off that poison charge.
15:56Oh, big deal.
15:57You get about as far as you did proving that I didn't push Reb.
16:01Anyway, you want to know something else?
16:03Reb knows whodunit, but she's not saying because she's too scared.
16:06Just a minute.
16:07She knows?
16:08Yeah.
16:09And I reckon there's one person in this whole place who could turn Reb to jelly and that's
16:12you, Winter.
16:13Isn't that right?
16:14You're the bitch who pushed Reb and I'm going to prove it.
16:16That's going to be a bit difficult, Mitchell.
16:18I've got a screws word for an alibi, remember?
16:21She saw me on the floor above just before she saw you with Keen.
16:24So?
16:25Just means you had time to get down before she came.
16:27Oh, God.
16:28You must have caught some kind of disease in Sydney.
16:29Something's been rotting your brain.
16:31You've got to believe me.
16:32Frank met with it or something.
16:34Look, I wouldn't put it past Winter, but if she's got a screw back in her story, there's
16:37nothing we can do.
16:38Oh, you're gutless bitches.
16:39Stuff the lot of you.
16:40I know when I've got mates and when I have it.
16:42You better buy her a muzzle next by up.
16:44She's going to be frothing at the mouth next.
16:46I wouldn't be so smug if I were you, Winter.
16:48If we find out you push Keen down those stairs, you're going to be laughing on the other
16:51side of your face.
16:52Don't bet on it, sweetheart.
16:54One thing your mate was right about, you're gutless.
17:02Look at that one.
17:03It mustn't have much.
17:05That fig leaf's pretty small.
17:06I wouldn't mind waiting for Autumn.
17:08I would.
17:09What do you want?
17:12I just got out of hospital and they're blaming Bobby for making me sick.
17:15So?
17:16Well, yous know the barley water Edna gave me was poisoned, so I thought if you could
17:20tell Renna, they'd get her off the hook.
17:22Why shouldn't we?
17:23We don't owe you nothing.
17:24In fact, you owe us.
17:25Right, Alice?
17:26Yeah.
17:27We heard it was you pinched all our buy-up goods.
17:29You got a nerve coming asking us for favours.
17:31Hey, weren't your buy-up goods?
17:32I was giving them back to the people that owned them.
17:34Yeah?
17:35Well, now we're going to show you what playing goody two-shoes is going to get you.
17:38Hold her, Jink.
17:39I'm warning you.
17:40If you touch me, Mara and Jude are going to get you.
17:41Since when?
17:42Since they said they'd keep their eyes open for me in case you decide to pay me back.
17:45Well, we'll just wait until they're out of action.
17:47Lard belly.
17:48Then we'll mop the floor with you.
17:50Come on.
17:51Before she cacks her pants.
18:00Where the hell are you two, Bea?
18:01Skin on a rabbit.
18:02Well, I said quarter two and I meant it.
18:04Now, if you want to stay on the winning side, I suggest you start learning how to tell the
18:07time.
18:08Okay.
18:09So what gives anyone?
18:10Easy street.
18:11If you're still around to enjoy it.
18:14Come next week, we're going to have the sweetest set up any con could dream of.
18:17You've got to be kidding.
18:18The fruit's taken over.
18:19Yeah, I reckon we'll be spending the rest of our time in solitary.
18:22Well, you probably would have if I hadn't been pulling a few strings while you lot sat
18:27in your bums.
18:28I've got Ferguson right where I want.
18:31Come next week, we're going to make more money in Wentworth than the place has ever seen
18:35before.
18:36And all with the blessing of the new governor.
18:38Oh, wow.
18:39Good stuff, Murray.
18:40Yeah, as long as Desmond and Brian don't put a fly in the ointment.
18:42Oh, I fixed that.
18:43Ferguson's getting rid of Desmond.
18:45And that battery operated blob's no problem on her own.
18:48So from now on, it's going to be open slather on the Wentworth stock market.
18:52Warren reckons they're ready to make mints made of us.
18:55Well, I reckon it's about time we ruffled their feathers a bit.
18:58They've been getting on my nerves lately.
19:00When do we get them?
19:01You want me to whop your bum too?
19:03I've been doing a lot of overtime lately.
19:06Now it's your turn.
19:07I reckon we've got time to work up an appetite for lunch.
19:09Honey, Barbara.
19:12I reckon if Marlene's right and the freak could organise the wreck,
19:18she's properly responsible for the ride as well.
19:20Wouldn't surprise me.
19:21The freak's been pushing to get Renault out for ages.
19:24Proving it's going to be as hard as clearing Bobby the...
19:27Who?
19:28I reckon I can help you there if you're interested.
19:30Ah, shut up, Kelly.
19:31I'll tell you some mate you'd be.
19:33I've got the name of the person who did it.
19:35And I know just the thing to get her to admit it.
19:38All right, shoot.
19:39In here.
19:40Don't want nobody hearing.
19:41What's changed?
19:42I've got the bit of paper that'll nail her.
19:45I've got the bit of paper that'll nail her.
19:46You'd better get a move on, Winter.
20:00Lunch has already started.
20:02I hope you're not forgetting who gives the orders, Miss Rogers.
20:06You know, I was real happy with that last delivery you made.
20:10In fact, I'm so proud of you, I'm going to let you do it again.
20:13Like hell.
20:14If you think that I...
20:15Now, don't make any rash statements, sweetheart.
20:17Or little brother's going to end up even more mangled than his bike was.
20:21You rotten low-down scum.
20:23God, I'd be glad to see the back end of you.
20:26Don't tell me we're driving you out.
20:28No, you're bloody not.
20:30And I'm warning you, if you so much as breathe on my family,
20:35my big brother and his copper mates are going to make your life hell where you're going.
20:41What do you mean?
20:42Where am I going?
20:44According to Miss Ferguson, you're already halfway to Blackmore.
20:48Bon voyage, sweetheart.
21:02God, you must have a cast iron stomach.
21:05I couldn't eat for a week if I'd been poisoned.
21:07You know, I'm starving, must have cleaned me out.
21:10Did you get hold of poor old Harry?
21:12Yeah, he...
21:13Hey, you two, I've got your lunches for you.
21:15Probably cold by now, but...
21:16Where you been?
21:17Fighting your battles, apparently.
21:20Eh?
21:22The next time you decide to tell the world that we're your guardian angel,
21:26would you mind letting us in under wealth?
21:28You don't mean that they...
21:29I do mean Lou, Fran and Alice.
21:32At least we left them worse off than we are.
21:34That's terrible.
21:36The three of them ganged up on you, why?
21:38Well, ask Madam here.
21:40Oh, jeez, Jude, Mara, I'm sorry.
21:43I just told them that to keep them off my bag.
21:46I didn't know they'd do that.
21:48Well, you did say you'd look out for me, Jude.
21:50Yeah, look out for you, but not take your beatings for you.
21:53Well, you're very lucky that Wonder Woman and I were in such good form today.
21:58We left the three of them with quite a lot of food.
22:01Oh, then it all turned out for the best day.
22:04Well, things around here are really starting to look up.
22:07Like visiting again next week.
22:09Marlene, things might be looking up for you, but what about Bobby?
22:13Yeah, and I don't want to burst the bubble, but if the freak takes over,
22:16privileges like visiting rights might become just a fond memory.
22:22Yeah, all right.
22:23Okay.
22:24You can make up a bed on the couch, providing you keep yourself covered.
22:27Yes.
22:28Yeah, well, how do you feel now?
22:30Right.
22:31Now, Shane, you've got to drink plenty of fluids.
22:34Yes, there's plenty of fruit juice in the fridge.
22:36Now, Shane, you just keep yourself warm and no mucking about, do you hear me?
22:41And next time we play Dutch, I'll use a bow and arrow.
22:45All right.
22:46All right, Shane, look after yourself.
22:49Well, some people find this job amusing.
22:52Oh, she gave me a hiding at Dutch last night.
22:56And like some people, I have work to do.
23:02Oh, I should have known better.
23:06Hey, look, since we've both off this afternoon and got a split shift,
23:09do you fancy going to a film?
23:10You wouldn't waste this weather.
23:12Let's go for a drive instead.
23:13Oh, okay.
23:14Anywhere special?
23:15I'll take your pick.
23:16But I promise I won't get your last, stranger.
23:18I'm in your hands, Mum.
23:19No.
23:20Judy!
23:21Amira!
23:22Do you think dear Harry believed you?
23:23I don't know.
23:24I think I managed to get some of us to another train.
23:25It's a long shot to expect a phone call from some jailbirds to change his mind about Edna.
23:26Well, it might get him to think for a minute, you know, if and dowdy-dow.
23:29Oh, wow.
23:30That's true.
23:31You've got a bit for them.
23:32Come on, I haven't got all day.
23:33Are you in a hurry, Warren?
23:34Sorry, Miss Ferguson.
23:35The woodwell's gone.
23:36I've been very careful with that.
23:37I don't know.
23:38I don't know.
23:39I don't know.
23:40I don't know.
23:41I don't know.
23:42I don't know.
23:43I don't know.
23:44I don't know.
23:45I think I managed to get some of us to another train.
23:46It's a long shot to expect a phone call from some jailbirds to change his mind about Edna.
23:50Well, it might get him to think for a minute, you know, if and dowdy-dow.
23:53Oh, wow.
23:54Well, it's true.
23:55You've got a bit for them.
23:56Come on, I haven't got all day.
23:57You in a hurry, Warren?
23:58Sorry, Miss Ferguson.
23:59The woodwell's gone.
24:00I've been very careful with you, Warren.
24:03Bumping into the wrong people can be quite dangerous.
24:06Milsom, out.
24:09You're out of your mind bumping into the freak.
24:11You've got to do something.
24:12You've got to help Bobby.
24:13Calm down.
24:14What's the matter with Bobby?
24:15She's going to kill herself.
24:16Listen, is this another one of your jokes?
24:17I'm not kidding.
24:18Look.
24:19I was on a bed.
24:22How?
24:23Did you realise she was this low?
24:25I didn't think she was so slow.
24:27Why are you going to stand there yakking?
24:29Can you help me find her?
24:30Oh, okay, Jude.
24:31You check the showers and see if the boiler room's open.
24:32I'll check the rest of the dorms.
24:33You check the rec room.
24:34And walk.
24:35We don't want the screws in on this.
24:39Next week.
24:40And that only gives us a few days to prepare our case,
24:42so I won't waste time.
24:44I'll want you to plead guilty with diminished responsibility.
24:48Maybe you think that's best?
24:50Well, considering your emotional state of the time,
24:52I think we have a very good case.
24:54I've spoken to Rick Manning, and he will testify for you.
24:57Is that necessary?
24:58We need his evidence.
24:59No, it's personal, Mr. Adams.
25:02I don't know how I feel about seeing Rick again.
25:05What are my chances?
25:07Well, I can't guarantee an acquittal,
25:09or even a suspended sentence.
25:11But if you are convicted, I'm sure we can get you into somewhere
25:14a little less grim than this place.
25:16No, I don't want that.
25:17Why not?
25:18Look, Mr. Adams, if I have to do time,
25:20I'd rather do it in here, where I've made a few friends.
25:24If those are your instructions,
25:26then we won't pursue the matter in court.
25:28It's the best I can hope for, isn't it?
25:30My choice of jails.
25:31That's the worst that can happen.
25:33I'm being cautious with you, Rachel.
25:36Not pessimistic.
25:37Have you seen Bobby?
25:42No, she's in the laundry room.
25:43I've got to find her.
25:44Settle down.
25:45How far away could she be?
25:46I don't understand, she left the...
25:47Did you find her?
25:48No, no, look.
25:49Will someone tell me what's going on?
25:50Bobby, she's gone missing.
25:51She's left a farewell note.
25:53No, does that mean...
25:54She's going to chuck it in?
25:55No.
25:56Not a sign.
25:57No one's seen her either.
25:58Damn it, we've looked everywhere too.
25:59Except the governor's office.
26:00I asked to see Mrs. Reynolds ten minutes ago,
26:02and she's at lunch.
26:03That leaves the roof.
26:04You don't think she could have gone up there?
26:05She could.
26:06Depends how desperate she was, doesn't it?
26:07Get up there.
26:08Come on.
26:17You've got to pass the pounder, you know?
26:19There's someone on duty there.
26:21Yeah, but you can still get through the roof.
26:23Believe me, I know it's been five before.
26:25Can't you do it?
26:26Shuri!
26:27What's going on?
26:28Aren't you all supposed to be in the laundry?
26:31Yeah.
26:32We're just looking for Bobby.
26:33Up here?
26:34Bobby's in the infirmary with Sister Hall.
26:36I took her there myself.
26:37We're too late, aren't we?
26:39Too late for me.
26:40It's my fault.
26:41We should have been quicker.
26:42I have to know, Mrs. M.
26:43How did she go with the quick?
26:45It takes about two minutes to walk to the infirmary.
26:48Is that quick enough for you, Marie?
26:49You mean she walked there?
26:51Bobby has a headache, not a broken leg.
26:53Sister Hall's given her some aspirin.
26:55She's lying down.
26:56Now, would you mind telling me what all this is about?
26:58Oh, nothing really.
26:59You know, we heard she wasn't found well.
27:01We thought we'd go and look for her.
27:02Yeah, well, I suggest you all go back to the laundry.
27:04Yeah, sure.
27:08Sorry.
27:09Off with my head, along with my husband, eh?
27:12Oh, no.
27:13I couldn't have known it was a false alarm for watching the right thing.
27:16Still that note?
27:17No, I think she's just depressed, that's all right.
27:19Maybe, maybe not.
27:20You love to man about the bitches, aren't you?
27:24The next time I win, it'll be the Dundee conference.
27:27Boy, do you need a conference.
27:28Boy, do you need a conference.
27:43I had to enroll the thing, probably blind drunk.
27:45They usually are.
27:46Are you called for help?
27:47No, settle down, mate.
27:48It's nothing to do with me.
27:49Jesus.
27:50Come on, the two of us can do it.
27:51Let's get him out of there.
27:52No way.
27:53I've done my job.
27:54He's probably dead anyway, or halfway there at least.
27:55You don't know that.
27:56We can't just leave him there.
27:57Dennis, it seems there's exposed wires in there.
27:58Spot on.
27:59That heaps of time, boss.
28:00Get out of here.
28:01You pack of bloody vampires.
28:20I think you have a good chance, love.
28:25Yeah, well, if I do get out, I won't miss this place.
28:29I will miss some of the people, love.
28:31Funny how you make friends, isn't it?
28:32Yeah, and you need more than most in here.
28:35That's if you can afford them.
28:38I wouldn't cut my chickens if I were you, Rachel.
28:41Them legal eagles just take all your dough and leave you here to rot.
28:45There ain't no such thing as justice.
28:47You're the friendly neighborhood voice of doom.
28:50Wilson, Farrah, will you go to the kitchen?
28:53Mrs. O'Regan needs some help.
28:54She's sick.
28:56Well, Bobby, your friends were very worried about you.
28:58Not now that we can see her, Mrs. Morris.
29:00Take her from Rachel, Bobby.
29:11What was the problem?
29:13There's no problem.
29:14I just had a headache.
29:16What'd they give you?
29:18Aspirin.
29:20Did they give you anything extra?
29:23Get off me back, will you?
29:24Look, don't try and bottle it up, Bobby.
29:26I found your nut.
29:28What nut?
29:29The suicide nut.
29:30The one you left on the bed.
29:31It was just a load of garbage.
29:33Oh, yeah?
29:35What's this thing?
29:36Why should I stick around?
29:37No one gives a stuff anymore.
29:39So what? I was scribbling.
29:40I was just trying to get me head together.
29:42Leave me alone, all right?
29:43Fair enough, love.
29:45Our mistake.
29:51I know I've got an entire lever in here somewhere.
29:54Dennis, can't you wait for the police to get here?
29:56They'll be here any minute.
29:57What?
29:58You mean join the rest of the old solid citizens and wait for the thing to go?
30:01I mean, he's probably just unconscious.
30:03We've got to try.
30:05Live one of yourself.
30:09You're off your head, pal.
30:10It's like you're more petrol than an Arab dine.
30:14Get out of here!
30:15No, no, I can't.
30:16You can't get him out by yourself.
30:18I said get out!
30:33It's gonna go!
30:34No!
30:45You check on the roast in the oven.
30:59What's your name again?
31:00It's Rachel, Mrs. O'Reagan.
31:01Right.
31:02Dot, you can help her with the veggies.
31:04Oh, your head's like a balloon.
31:06How often would you like the lamb basted?
31:08Don't you go mucking around with it.
31:10Just make sure it doesn't burn.
31:12You get no sense of her when she's like that.
31:15She's ill.
31:16Did you see the eyes?
31:18The way her hand shook?
31:19She's hitting the sauce again.
31:21I've seen it all before.
31:22I'll take your word for it.
31:23What are the vegetables?
31:24Cabbage and spuds again.
31:26All that peeling.
31:27Now when I've got dermatitis...
31:31Mashed and boiled.
31:32What's wrong with a bit of imagination?
31:34From O'Reagan.
31:37She can't even cook even when she's sober.
31:40Mrs. O'Reagan,
31:41I was wondering if I might do something different with the potatoes.
31:44Such as?
31:45Well, I thought maybe potato croquettes.
31:47I wouldn't mind the extra work.
31:48You having a shot at my cooking?
31:50Not at all.
31:51This isn't the rich, you know.
31:52Just who do you think you are?
31:53Some fancy chef?
31:54No, but I thought if I was in here to help...
31:56You're all here to do as you're told.
31:58Just remember that.
31:59Prison's no place for fancy ideas.
32:01Of course, nothing worthwhile could come from a prisoner.
32:04Just suffer in silence, dear.
32:07That's my motto.
32:08After the first ten years, you don't care anymore.
32:11Oh.
32:15Take an early mark, Winter.
32:16The bell hasn't gone yet.
32:17We need to talk business, just you and me.
32:19When it suits me.
32:20Well, I'd better search her now.
32:21Just want to get a few points clear about how it's going to be when you're a governor.
32:33You know the deal.
32:34Well, go on.
32:35Humour me.
32:36Right.
32:37You have a free hand.
32:38You run the rackets.
32:39We split 50-50.
32:40Anyone who gives any trouble gets transferred.
32:41You see?
32:42A nice, closed, profitable shop.
32:44Don't cross a bitch.
32:45It's me halfway to bloody Blackmore!
32:48Now, you will do as I say.
32:50This is my turf.
32:51Not quite too bloody long.
32:54I'm here to elaborate.
32:55If I go to Blackmore, I'll make damn sure I have you for company.
32:59They'd love to know the real story behind the riot, wouldn't they?
33:02I don't believe you.
33:04Are you prepared to take that risk?
33:06All bets are off, Ferguson.
33:09I'm going to squeal till you hang.
33:12Because the way I figure it, I've got nothing to lose.
33:16You've got one way out of this.
33:18Just one.
33:23What do you want?
33:25I want out.
33:28And you're going to arrange it.
33:39No.
33:40Not tomorrow.
33:41This afternoon.
33:42I want it cut down.
33:43The roots dug out and carted away.
33:45Right.
33:47Organising your garden, eh?
33:50Personal business on prison time?
33:52For your information, it was prison business.
33:56And in case you're interested, I have some new evidence on the Warren poisoning.
34:00Eager little beaver, aren't you?
34:02Thought you'd be better off spending your time looking at the situations vacant.
34:05As you well know, Joan, if they make you governor, I'll resign.
34:09Meanwhile, I hope we're both professional enough to still work together.
34:12Hmm.
34:13Right.
34:14Well, what about this new evidence?
34:17Well, no one else got sick after that barbecue.
34:19And the meat that was left over was as fresh as a daisy.
34:21So that just about rules out food poisoning.
34:24Today I searched up near the barbecue area and I found a skewer made out of an oleander bush.
34:30Oleander?
34:31That rings a bell.
34:32Yes.
34:33It's a poisonous shrub.
34:34We've got one outside.
34:35I'm having it removed today.
34:36So you're suggesting that someone has used this oleander skewer to poison Warren's steak?
34:41Well, that puts the blame right on Mitchell, doesn't it?
34:44No, it just doesn't add up.
34:46Well, I can think of a number of people who'd like to get rid of Warren.
34:49Justifiable homicide, I'd call it.
34:51Mitchell wouldn't know the difference between an oleander and a buttercup and neither would
34:54any of the other women.
34:56But one thing does stick in my mind.
34:58What's that?
34:59Two days ago out in the garden, Edna Pearson was spouting on to all the women about gardening
35:04and she named every plant she could see.
35:08Well, maybe she was guilty.
35:12And you and the governor were so pleased when she was released.
35:16I have been wrong before.
35:18Many times.
35:19Anyway, it's all a waste of time.
35:22Your new evidence wouldn't stand up in a court of law.
35:24I'm well aware of that, Joan.
35:27Meg, a fistful of invoices just landed on my desk I know nothing about.
35:32Did you authorise them while I was out?
35:34I authorised them.
35:36With what authority?
35:38Well, when I'm appointed governor, there are certain things I'll need.
35:41I felt it was in the interest of efficiency to be prepared.
35:45Once you're appointed, if you're appointed, you can and no doubt will do whatever the hell you like.
35:51But as long as I am governor, I will not be treated with contempt by you of all people.
35:56Make sure these are cancelled.
36:04Only 24 hours to go, eh?
36:06Yeah, that'd be right.
36:07Yeah, then it's goodbye to Mrs O'Regan's cottage pie.
36:11Gee, who's gonna look after the next fashion parade?
36:14Oh.
36:15Oh, I didn't mean that the way it sounded.
36:17I hope it goes really well tomorrow, Lee.
36:19Oh, thanks.
36:20As far as the fashion parade's a concern, I think you're just about ready to fill my shoes.
36:25Oh, I'm not that good, Nihil.
36:27No, don't we know it.
36:30Is something bugging you?
36:32No.
36:34Well, are we bugging you?
36:37You care more about Rachel and Lee than you do about me.
36:40You know Murray must have pushed the red, but you and Murray won't even back me up.
36:43Now that's not true.
36:45We can't do the impossible, she has an alibi.
36:47Yeah, and I've got no alibi and no mates either.
36:49Okay.
36:50We might not think that we care about you, honey, but I've got a letter here that shows
36:56that we really do care.
36:58Well, some of us...
37:01I'm gonna read you this letter anyway.
37:07Dear Judy, I can't really enjoy being free yet because I miss you all so much.
37:13My first night on the outside was terrible.
37:15I cried all night wondering about Bobby.
37:18Bobby.
37:19And her baby.
37:22How is Bobby?
37:25I went to the hospital where they're keeping Cass.
37:27They wouldn't let me see her.
37:29Well, I spoke to the doctor and there's good news.
37:32She's gonna be all right.
37:34Oh.
37:35All right.
37:36Please look after one another.
37:39Oh, my love, Pixie.
37:43She really is something, isn't she?
37:44She sure is.
37:45There's a P.S.
37:47I still have my job at the Bridal Boutique.
37:51I'm having a wonderful time there, especially since I found out Mr. Schumann has a nephew.
38:00And guess what?
38:01She says he's not married.
38:04Will she ever learn?
38:06I don't think so.
38:08But she sure taught us one thing.
38:11Please look after each other.
38:13Oh, there you are.
38:18I'm not interrupting anything, am I?
38:20Yes.
38:21Changing my shirt, in fact.
38:22Dennis just saved a man's life from a car crash.
38:24She nearly got killed.
38:25Really?
38:26I've heard worse excuses for being late.
38:28Ring the Edith Vale police if you don't believe me.
38:30Let it go, Heather.
38:31It's not worth it.
38:32But you are a hero.
38:33Some people just wouldn't appreciate that.
38:35Be very careful who I spoke to in that tone of voice, Rogers.
38:38The fact remains that both of you are late.
38:40Therefore, the buy-up that you should have distributed this afternoon will have to wait until after dinner.
38:44Yes, Miss Williams.
38:46Then hurry it up.
38:47There are other officers doing your jobs.
38:51Oh, boy.
38:52Well, take it easy.
38:53I'd really like to tell her when I think of her.
38:55Well, not today, Charlie.
38:56Did you notice the ministerial car that pulled up outside?
38:59Odds are we'll have a new governor by stumps.
39:02Worse look.
39:06Oh, Mrs. Ian, what can I do for you?
39:08I just had a call from Kay.
39:09No, don't worry, don't worry.
39:10Just wanted to know if you got that letter she sent you.
39:12Ah.
39:13She sounded very chirpy.
39:14Said she's keeping an eye on Alan, and he seems to be helping her, too.
39:17So, so far, so good.
39:18So far, so good.
39:19And she wanted me to tell you again how much she loves you for what you did.
39:23She knows what it cost you.
39:25Yeah, she doesn't know what it cost the others, though, does she?
39:28Cass' breakdown, Bobby losing the baby.
39:31Maybe if I'd been here.
39:33Well, off the record, and knowing all that, I think I would have done exactly the same
39:39if it had been Marty instead of Kay.
39:41Mrs. Reynolds got the bullet because of what happened while I was away, didn't she?
39:46I think you'll all regret that if Joan does take over.
39:49I, for one, will certainly not be staying, and neither will many of the other officers, either.
39:54We'll be very sorry if you do go, Mrs. Ian, but that's not going to stop Joan Ferguson.
39:58She'll bring in the Gestapo if she has to.
40:00Can't blame you if you do leave.
40:02Well, I do have my integrity to protect.
40:05And you did save Kay's life.
40:14We've got to serve in 15 minutes. Get a move on.
40:16The meat isn't ready yet.
40:17I don't care if it's raw. Get it on the bench and start carbon.
40:21Well, if you don't get a move on, we may as well serve the meat with a flaming dessert.
40:25Me veggies are all getting cold.
40:27It is hot, you know.
40:28Well, it's just a question of knowing what you're doing.
40:31I could have had it all done by now, even with me two feet in the grave.
40:35Be my guest.
40:37Well, typical young ones today.
40:41Wouldn't work in an iron lung.
40:44You're supposed to be doing the spuds.
40:46We swap jobs.
40:48Well, I couldn't tell you to swap.
40:50I can't do everything all at once, can I?
40:54Can't really tell my mum and dad about that maniac trying to poison me, can I?
40:59I hope a husband wakes up to himself.
41:05I'm really sorry about carrying on like a chook with its head cut off today.
41:09It must have been really thick to think you'd really do yourself in.
41:17You know, I reckon we've got to be mates, sort of.
41:21So if I tell you something, will you promise to keep it to yourself?
41:23Oh look, I've got a really big mouth, but I can keep a secret, you know.
41:33Well, you were right.
41:34What about?
41:35I was going to do it.
41:38You're having me on.
41:41I faked the headache just to get into the infirmary.
41:44Couldn't even pinch the right bloody pills, could I?
41:47Vitamins.
41:49My luck will stuff everything up.
41:50You don't still feel like doing it, do you?
41:54I don't feel anything now.
41:57I won't try it again.
41:59Look Bobby, where there's life, there's hope, all that stuff,
42:04and you might talk the VJ into letting your parole go through.
42:09What good will that do me?
42:11Nothing for me in here.
42:13Nothing for me outside.
42:15You might get yourself a really good job.
42:17900,000 unemployed.
42:21I've read it.
42:24You know where the ex-crims are?
42:27End of the line.
42:30I've got no baby.
42:32No bloke.
42:34The only thing I've got to sell is me body.
42:37The only place I can call home is a cell in this stinking prison.
42:40Look, you ought to have a good talk with Judy and Myra.
42:44They think the world of you, you know?
42:46Oh yeah, sure.
42:48They're always on me back about something.
42:51I'm not going to tell them.
42:53Neither are you.
42:55Keep your mouth shut.
43:00The department can't always act as it would like to, Anne.
43:03The acting minister has to take public opinion into account too.
43:06And it seems it pays to have influential friends close to the powers that be.
43:12Yes, I imagine it does.
43:15You ask to see me, Governor?
43:17Miss Ferguson?
43:19This is the minister's secretary, Mr. Watkins.
43:22I'm pleased to meet you, Miss Ferguson.
43:24It is.
43:26This concerns the post of governor at this prison.
43:28Your application was most favourably received, I might say.
43:31Well, thank you, Mr. Watkins.
43:32Mr. Watkins.
43:33However, Mrs. Reynolds' heroism during the recent prison riot,
43:37and the subsequent favourable press coverage,
43:40have caused us to reconsider and reinstate Mrs. Reynolds as governor,
43:44with the full endorsement of the department.
43:45He used to give me roses, I wish he could again, but that was on the outside.
43:58And things were different then.
43:59On the inside the sun still shines, and the rain falls down.
44:11But the sun and rain are Christmas too, when morning comes around.
44:26Last night I dreamed we were together, sharing all the love ignored.
44:43The sun and rain falls down.
44:46Till I had to face the nightmare of waking up alone.
44:54On the inside the roses grow, they don't mind the stony ground.
45:04But the roses here are Christmas too, when morning comes around.
45:16And the rest of the world plу.
45:18On the inside the roses grow, there are that many people can't remember when so.
45:19I've got ch Sup acut
