00:09Police!
00:10We have a warrant to serve supremacists.
00:13Sarge, I found this under the cot.
00:15You are under arrest for possession of a prohibited drug.
00:17This is not mine! David, this is not mine!
00:19No! This is not mine!
00:20But if you do, it may be used in evidence against you.
00:23Do you understand?
00:23Please Dad, this has to be some kind of mistake.
00:26He had a drug stash.
00:27Yeah, I know. I was there. I saw it. But I need to talk to him.
00:30Go home, Jo.
00:31Do you think it's possible that my mum plant those drugs?
00:34Yes, I do. And so does Tarnet.
00:36If we don't find her and prove I'm innocent, I could miss years of Archie's life. You understand?
00:40I understand, Tarnet.
00:41Just tell me, do you know anything about where she is?
00:43Not yet.
00:44I try to remember your responsibilities.
00:46In these four walls, it's to the uniform, not your mate.
00:50Still can't believe I made bail.
00:52That was a lot of money, mate. I owe you big time.
00:54I know. Don't worry about it. We're family.
00:56I'm taking you off the case.
00:57Well, you can't actually do that, Sergeant.
00:59You're way too close to this.
01:00No, just listen. Listen for a sec, David.
01:02Human, this is enough for discussion. My decision is final.
01:16Oh, no. Wait. I'll get this.
01:18Oh, no. I ordered one for cash as well.
01:20That's fine. He deserves a free coffee, especially after posting Tarnet's bail.
01:25Thanks so much for keeping me in the loop on everything, by the way.
01:27Oh, girls. I heard about Tarnet. He's not involved with drugs, is he?
01:31No, absolutely not. He would never touch the stuff.
01:35Anyway, we'd better get this to cash.
01:37Thanks, Buzz. Bye, Tarnet.
01:41Hey. Hey.
01:42How'd you go with Archie?
01:43Oh, yeah, good. Good. Tarnet was really happy to see him.
01:46I bet. Here, coffee.
01:48How's everything going with the investigation?
01:50Have you made any progress into figuring out what's happened?
01:52Uh, you should probably ask your father about that one.
01:55Oh, it might surprise you to know he's been pretty stingy with the details.
01:58Well, that actually doesn't surprise me, but...
02:01Look, we're both doing our best to sort it out.
02:05Hey, why don't you go and see Tarnet now?
02:08Are you sure?
02:09Yeah, I'm sure he would love to see you.
02:11I can give you some time before I pick up Archie later.
02:15Okay. That'd be great. Thanks. I'll see you then.
02:17See ya.
02:20All right. What aren't you saying?
02:25Let's go for a walk.
02:30There you go. Ready? Go down.
02:34Yeah.
02:39Oh, that's a good grip, boy.
02:41You're going to be stronger than your old man soon.
02:43Yeah, go down. Yes, you will.
02:48Oh, yeah.
02:50Hey, you hungry? You hungry?
02:52Yeah? Yeah, you are.
02:54All right. Let's go get a feed, eh?
02:56Come on.
02:58Feed time. Ready?
03:01Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo.
03:02And in we go.
03:04Hey!
03:05Let's see what your mum packed for you.
03:07Dad!
03:07What do you feel like?
03:08Dad!
03:09Yes, I'm here.
03:11There we go.
03:12You're strapped up, eh?
03:13Ready to blast off, mate?
03:15Ready for blast off, yeah.
03:16Hey.
03:18Hey.
03:19Mind if I crash your time with Archie?
03:21No, no. Come in.
03:26Hey.
03:27Hey.
03:28I've been meaning to call you to see if you're okay.
03:30See if I'm okay. I'm not the one who got arrested.
03:33Yeah, but still, it was your dad running the show.
03:34That would have been hard for you.
03:36Yeah, I've had better days.
03:39Well, this place cleaned up all right.
03:41Yeah, yeah.
03:42Uh, Eden and Abby gave it a once over.
03:46Is everything all right?
03:48Look, I just need to ask.
03:51Were those drugs yours?
03:53Because all your friends are saying you're innocent,
03:54but I know my daddy wouldn't be investigating if there wasn't anything to look at.
03:57Listen, listen.
03:57I promise you, they're not mine.
04:02Okay.
04:04Look, I understand how this looks,
04:05but I have never and I would never have anything to do with drugs.
04:09And I swear that on Archie.
04:12I believe you.
04:15Sorry, you shouldn't have to defend yourself to me.
04:17Hey, I'd probably be asking the same thing if the roles were reversed.
04:25I missed you.
04:26Well, even though you thought I was guilty.
04:29I missed you too.
04:33No!
04:36No!
04:43How can he kick you off the case like that?
04:46Because he's a sergeant.
04:47He can do what he wants.
04:48That's not fair.
04:49You haven't done anything wrong.
04:50No, technically no, but he knows me and Tania are mates
04:53and I went to court with him.
04:55So?
04:56And I posted his bail.
04:59Mm-hmm.
05:01So, what happens now?
05:02Will David even bother looking for my mum if you're not there to push him?
05:05I am going to continue looking for your mum.
05:07Well, how are you going to do that without David knowing?
05:10I'm just going to have to be careful about it.
05:12Two out of the three leads you've given me have gone nowhere,
05:14but I've still got to check out your aunt's place in Tasmania.
05:17I've been calling mum, but she hasn't answered, of course.
05:21I left a bunch of messages asking her to call me back.
05:24That's good.
05:25I know it's a long shot, but I just don't know what else to do.
05:29I found Kerry once before.
05:31I reckon I can find her again.
06:00Everything all right, Newman?
06:02Uh, yeah, everything's...
06:04Fine.
06:07No, I was having a problem logging onto the database.
06:09I'm just going to give IT a call.
06:10I wouldn't bother.
06:11I asked them to block your access to the database.
06:14Why?
06:15Why do you think?
06:18Sarge, how am I supposed to do my job?
06:20Will your colleagues still have access?
06:22Any processing you require, you can ask one of them for help.
06:25Have a good evening.
06:33So how far from home were you allowed to go?
06:35Um, about as far as work and to Harper's Place.
06:38But if I go any further than that, then they locked me up again.
06:42Okay, so what happened?
06:44I believe you when you say the drugs aren't yours, but how did they end up under Archie's cot?
06:48Well, I have a theory.
06:51Hey, Harper.
06:55Hey.
06:56Hope I gave you guys enough time.
06:58Just get us stuff ready.
07:02How are you?
07:05Honestly, been better.
07:07I'm sorry, Tan. I never thought having mum in town would lead to anything like this.
07:12No big surprise though, is it?
07:13Hey, I'm gonna, um, give you guys some space. Just go out and get some takeaway.
07:17Sure, thank you.
07:24Look, I don't know what you want me to say. I'm not gonna make you feel better about this.
07:27I'm not expecting you to. I just know that I would take it all back if I could.
07:32I told you right from the start that this was a bad call.
07:36Yeah, I know.
07:37Do you have any idea how much trouble I'm in?
07:39These charges could take me away from Archie for the next 15 years.
07:42I'm, I'm gonna do everything I can to fix it.
07:47Hold on, hold on.
08:00I'll see you soon, okay?
08:04It's okay. It's okay.
08:08It's okay.
08:11Tan out.
08:12Just go.
08:23Your order won't be long, David.
08:25No rush, Liz.
08:25Okay.
08:26Hi, darling. What can I get you?
08:29I heard you took cash off Tan's case.
08:32I don't think that's any of your business.
08:35Tan is the father of my child. It's absolutely my business.
08:38No, I don't think this is the place for this conversation, Harper.
08:40I just think it's a bit rich that you're crying conflict of interest.
08:43No one's crying, Harper.
08:44Are you sure you're not targeting Tan?
08:45No, I'm not targeting.
08:46Because he's sleeping with your daughter.
08:48That's a conflict of interest.
08:51This is a criminal investigation.
08:53You should know better than to get involved.
08:56Hmm.
08:57Okay.
08:59Sorry, Maz. I'm not exactly hungry.
09:12Dave.
09:14Glad I ran into you.
09:16Wanted to check in.
09:18You mind if I join you?
09:19I can't stop you.
09:21But I'll warn you, I'm not much company.
09:23Yeah, I wouldn't blame you after the way Harper out regards you at the diner.
09:28I can just lend you an ear or shout you another drink.
09:33I'll take both.
09:34Yes.
09:37So I'm just chasing up Kerry Matheson's phone records.
09:39Where are we at with those?
09:41Okay, great.
09:42Could you send them through, please?
09:46Withheld?
09:46Sorry.
09:48How could they be withheld?
09:49I'm the officer who requested them.
09:51Well, who would have told you...
09:54Okay.
09:56Okay, thank you.
09:57I'll take that up with Sergeant Lang and myself.
10:03Please, I really need to speak to him.
10:05Better through.
10:06All right.
10:07Thanks.
10:10Everything okay?
10:11Yeah, yeah, yeah. Everything's fine.
10:14What are you doing here?
10:17I...
10:18just wanted to let you know that I gave David a serve about kicking you off the case.
10:22Oh, Pa, come on.
10:23It wasn't my finest moment. I let anger get the better of me.
10:26I just hope it doesn't come back on you.
10:28Yeah.
10:29Okay, thank you for the heads up.
10:31I think that ship might have sailed a couple of hours ago.
10:34What do you mean?
10:36Well, I tried to run a trick on your aunt's address and turns out Sar just locked me out of
10:39the system
10:40and I've just found out that he's blocked my access to your mother's phone and her bank records too.
10:44Well, how are you gonna find her now?
10:48I got no idea.
10:50Sorry.
10:51Why are you apologising? It's my fault.
10:54Everything is so messed up for Tana and now you're in trouble.
10:57Oh no, don't worry about me.
10:58If only I could turn back the clock, hey? I never should have asked you to look for my parents.
11:03You had good intentions.
11:04Yeah, I wanted Archie to have grandparents and now he's not even gonna have a dad.
11:14Harper's mum?
11:15Yeah, she's a recovering drug addict so she'd know where to get this stuff. And as you know, she's not
11:19my biggest fan.
11:21Oh.
11:22What?
11:24It just makes so much sense. Have you told my dad all this?
11:27Yeah, and Cash. He's been trying to track her down too.
11:30Well, I'll talk to dad. I'll tell him that the day they found the drugs I saw her lose it
11:34at you.
11:35Maybe, I don't know, maybe you should just not get involved, okay?
11:38Listen to me. I know my dad's not the biggest fan of us, but he is a good cop. He's
11:43fair.
11:43And once he has all the pieces of information he needs...
11:46Do you really believe that?
11:48Yes, I do.
11:51I don't know what to believe anymore.
11:55When Harper was here, I kind of chewed her head off.
11:58She'll understand.
12:01If she'd just listen to me when I told her not to find her mum, none of this would be
12:04happening.
12:07I'm sorry, I just don't know how to feel about her right now.
12:09Hey, hey, hey. Come here.
12:16Everything's gonna be okay.
12:18Alright?
12:19I promise.
12:25Righto.
12:26Shame with me.
12:27Was there any truth to what Harper said?
12:30Cheers.
12:33You'll have to be more specific.
12:36Is your connection to Joe Cloud in your judgement and you would be in good company if it was?
12:41Believe me, mate. I have lost my head over my daughter.
12:45I'm not targeting, darling.
12:48Truth is, I don't know if he's guilty or not.
12:51A lot of people reckon he's innocent.
12:53Oh yeah, they've told me.
12:57Mate, we found drugs in the guy's house.
13:00I can't ignore that.
13:02I have to conduct a thorough investigation.
13:05So the fact that he's dating your daughter's got no effect on you whatsoever?
13:09No, I didn't say that.
13:12Truth is, it scares the hell out of me.
13:15Whatever's going on for Tane, you'd never put Joe in danger.
13:19It's not her safety I'm worried about.
13:23After everything she's been through,
13:26the last thing I want is for her to have to visit her boyfriend in prison for the next decade
13:30or more.
13:31Yeah.
13:31But that's not going to stop me doing my job.
13:49Seriously?
13:51It's late, you better go see who that is.
13:55I'm not going anywhere, go.
14:08Cass, hey.
14:09Hey.
14:10What's up?
14:10Am I interrupting something?
14:12I am interrupting. I'm going to come back later.
14:14Sorry.
14:15Come on, come on. There's a reason why you're here so late.
14:18Yeah.
14:19Hey.
14:19Hey, Joe.
14:21Um, I was hoping that I could have a private conversation with you.
14:24Well, if it has anything to do with Kerry, I've told Joe everything.
14:28All right.
14:29Um, I've got some bad news and I wanted you to hear it from me.
14:33Okay.
14:34I've been kicked off the case.
14:39My dad, right?
14:40Yeah.
14:41Sarge reckons Tana and I are too close.
14:44And the worst part is I've been officially blocked from using police resources,
14:47which means I can't even track down Kerry on my own.
14:50So what does this mean?
14:52It means that there's no one in the case who believes I'm innocent.
15:07It was just so complicated and awful.
15:11I mean, Dustin will tell you he was there.
15:13Tell you what?
15:14Marilyn's just telling me about, uh, Harper and David's blue.
15:17That was, uh, pretty rough.
15:19He's doing it tough.
15:20Well, he's not the only one.
15:22I mean, this could tear that family apart.
15:24No, wait, wait.
15:25He didn't mean it.
15:25He's just doing his job.
15:26Just keep it down, eh?
15:27Oh.
15:28Hey, love.
15:29Hi.
15:29Morning.
15:30Hi.
15:31It's all right, little man.
15:32Hey, it's all right.
15:34Little bloke woke up on the wrong side, eh?
15:36Oh, he's teething.
15:37Anyway, I've got a toy here somewhere for him.
15:40Do you want to give him to me to distract him for a bit while you find the toy?
15:43Oh, be my guest.
15:45Eh?
15:46Come on.
15:47Hi.
15:48It's all right, eh?
15:51Hi, little matey.
15:53Those little chompers giving you a bit of curry, are they?
15:57At least you've got some.
16:00Ah, mum to the rescue.
16:02Hi.
16:02Hey.
16:04Hey.
16:04That's our boy.
16:06Thanks, Al.
16:11You all right?
16:13Yeah.
16:15Ah, Naz, would you and Alf be able to look after Archie for a little while?
16:18Yeah, of course.
16:19Yeah, I don't think that's a problem.
16:22I'll do that, darling.
16:23Oh, thank you.
16:24Thanks.
16:24Come on, pups.
16:25Mm-hmm.
16:30Hey, man, thanks for coming around so quick.
16:34Yeah, no problem.
16:35What's going on?
16:37Well, look, I've been up all night trying to find another way to track down your mum
16:41and I think I might be onto something.
16:43What are you thinking?
16:44Well, if I can't find Kerry, maybe I can find the person who supplied her the drugs.
16:49That feels like a long shot.
16:50Yeah, I know, but if I can link the drugs to your mum or if I can get the dealer
16:53to say
16:53that they don't know darn it, then I'm one step closer to clearing his name.
16:56Okay, so how do we even start looking for this person?
16:59Well, addicts are creatures of habit.
17:02And if your mother had a regular supplier back in the day...
17:06She might have gone back to the same person.
17:08Exactly.
17:10So, do you by any chance remember where your parents used to buy their drugs?
17:13Oh, that was over ten years ago.
17:14Yeah, I know.
17:15Anything you give me could be useful.
17:17You could give me a name, give me a face.
17:21Was there anybody who regularly came around the house?
17:25Yeah, I can think of a few people, actually.
17:28I don't care about Matheson's final bank records right now.
17:31I'd just focus on paratats for the moment.
17:35All right, is Senior Constable Newman in this morning?
17:39No, no, I'm just wondering.
17:42All right, well, I'll see you there soon.
17:46Hey, Joe.
17:47Just making coffee, you want one?
17:53Sweetheart, you awake?
17:59Joe?
18:16Yeah?
18:24What now?
18:24I'm looking for my daughter.
18:26Is she here?
18:27Dad, what are you doing here?
18:29You could have at least sent me a text message to say you wouldn't be home last night.
18:32I'm an adult. I don't need to keep you updated all the time.
18:35I don't think it's appropriate for you to be here.
18:38At least until the case is resolved.
18:39I don't care what you think.
18:41Have you forgotten what we talked about?
18:42I know Tane.
18:44And I know he's innocent.
18:45And I know you're making life really difficult for him at the moment.
18:48And who's feeding you that rubbish?
18:50I don't say anything.
18:50What have you done about Kerry Matheson?
18:52Are you trying to track her down?
18:53I'm not discussing that with you.
18:55Then we have nothing to talk about.
18:56Joe.
18:58You're smarter than this.
19:00Let's go home.
19:01No, Dad.
19:02You don't get to control everything.
19:04You can get cash thrown off the case.
19:07You can stop missing Tane when he's locked up.
19:08But you can't stop me being here right now.
19:15Don't you have a job to go do?
19:26At least he knows where I stand.
19:37What are you doing here?
19:39You're not rostered on.
19:40No.
19:40I'm applying for leave.
19:41Four days of leave starting today.
19:43Why so sudden?
19:44Something's come up.
19:45What?
19:46It's personal.
19:47I'm not in the mood, Newman.
19:49What are you up to?
19:50I am allowed to apply for leave, aren't I?
19:52Technically, yeah.
19:53Okay.
19:54And I don't have any active cases, so there's no reason for you to deny it, is there?
20:01Alright.
20:03Okay.
20:08That was a pretty big blow up your head with your dad.
20:10Yeah.
20:12Sorry about that.
20:14You okay?
20:16Yeah, I'm fine.
20:18You know, I never thought of you as the type to pick a fight with family.
20:21I'm usually not.
20:23It's actually the first fight we've had in a really long time.
20:28Look, I think we need to be honest with each other here.
20:32What are you talking about?
20:34Well, whether it's fair or not, I could be going away for years.
20:37Don't talk like you've already been sentenced.
20:39I'm just being realistic, okay?
20:41It's not looking good.
20:44Especially now Karish isn't on the inside helping me.
20:47I just don't want you left behind with no one in your corner.
20:51Honey, that's not going to happen.
20:52Well, it could.
20:55Now, are you sure you want to stick by me?
20:58Yes, I'm sure.
21:00Even if it means losing your dad?
21:08It kind of feels like this is meant to be.
21:11And I just can't imagine being with anyone new right now.
21:15Still just be friends.
21:17Hey, Liz.
21:18It's been pretty clear that he's been watching me.
21:23I feel like you're avoiding me.
21:26Stop interfering and leave us alone.
21:28I won't tell you again.
21:29I told him that I didn't want to see him.
21:31I'm falling in love with you.
21:33And I'm not going to let anyone get in the way.
21:34Get away from me.
21:37She's fine, alright?
21:37I-
21:38How far will he go?
21:40Oi!
21:41Get your hands off her!
21:42You're going to regret this.
21:43Home and away.
21:43Come on!
