00:09I've got a sweet tooth for you
00:12It grew when I first saw you
00:16I've been acting young when you're new
00:28You're too busy
00:31Party's all dry
00:39Waiting at the fear
00:44My eyes are trapped in your eyes
00:52Gerard, don't drink too much.
01:08Cheers, boys.
01:18I had a sweet tooth for you.
01:22It done went out first last year.
01:25Hey, Harper, wait up.
01:26I feel like we've been waiting for you.
01:28Sorry, bro, you're not invited.
01:33Oh, God.
01:38Oh, God.
01:41Noah's here to be back for dinner.
01:43Uh, Noah, your nephew.
01:45He does exist, Cole.
01:47I know, you booked unit four for him.
01:49No, I've tried his phone, but it's just caught him through the wall.
01:52He's a very bright boy.
01:53He's a little bit absent-minded, though, sometimes.
01:55Maybe he's just hanging out with a pack of teenagers.
01:57Oh, yeah, a ton is full of them.
01:58Maybe just get Jamie to keep an eye out.
02:01No, no, I'm sure he'll be fine.
02:03I'm sure he'll be fine.
02:03Noah's a good boy.
02:04In fact, Noah is the deputy head boy at St. Anthony Pardua College.
02:09Did I mention that?
02:10Yes.
02:10Sure did.
02:11First 11, and a swimming coach reckons he's got a real shot at the Olympics.
02:15He's very focused.
02:16He'll be fine.
02:18There's a little band in first.
02:22Help me, baby.
02:26Oh, I'm jailed.
02:28Definitely, ladies.
02:30Go home, kids.
02:42Hey.
02:44Have you, um, have you got the list?
02:46Mm-hmm.
02:47Written down?
02:49Oh, God.
02:51Saffir's.
02:53Good morning, Saffron.
02:55Situation, pole side.
03:14Well, he lives.
03:15Yeah, but who is he?
03:18I'd say Maxine's nephew's finally shown up.
03:24And this is what your son was wearing when you last saw him?
03:28Could you send that to me, please?
03:32I wouldn't normally worry.
03:34Gerard's very popular with the girls.
03:37Look, I'd say there are a lot of teenagers waking up in places they're not supposed to be this morning.
03:42It's just that his jet ski is gone.
03:45I'll give the Coast Guard a call.
03:48There's no need to panic just yet.
03:50Kids will be kids and all that, right?
04:22There's no need to panic just yet.
04:25There's no need to panic just yet.
04:26Morning.
04:27I need another key for Unit 4.
04:29My nephew misplaced it.
04:30There's a charge for that.
04:33Well, we'll have to get another one cut.
04:34Well, if anything, we should be compensated and not charged.
04:37How do you figure that?
04:38Well, Vanessa, if he had a 24-hour front desk, then poor Noah wouldn't have had to sleep outside.
04:43Oh, whoa, whoa, 24-hour desk.
04:44That is...
04:45No, that is not a thing.
04:46The old owners sometimes had a 24-hour front desk if they were having a party.
04:50Mm-hmm.
04:51Please don't lose this one.
04:52Otherwise, we have to get the locksmith out.
04:54Of course he won't.
04:54He's a good boy.
04:56That's you told?
04:59That's Jamie.
05:03Oh, that's not good.
05:10I'm in.
05:11Found a sports bar that has the AFL.
05:13Only half an hour away.
05:15Uh, that's great, honey.
05:18You okay?
05:19Yeah, uh, a boy's gone missing.
05:22They've just found his jet ski.
05:25Shit.
05:26That's no good.
05:28I'm pretty sure his parents have just turned up and Jamie will need my support, so I'll call you back.
05:32Okay?
05:32Bye, bye.
05:35Oh, wow.
05:36This is a great car.
05:38Thanks.
05:39I've got a 1966 Ford Thunderbird Tan Landau, so...
05:42Dad wanted to buy me a Beamer, but I was like, no.
05:45I had this whole Thelma and Louise thing going on.
05:47Do you know that movie?
05:48Yes.
05:49Yes, I do.
05:50So I'm guessing from your number plate, you're Brooke.
05:53Yep.
05:53Um, this is Harper and that's Mackenzie.
05:55Hi.
05:56I'm Vinnie.
05:58Is Gerard a friend of yours?
06:01No.
06:08Nice to meet you girls.
06:42So, he comes off his jet ski and ends up there.
06:46Isn't that a bit...
06:47Not possible.
06:49Yeah.
06:50Not exactly making sense.
06:52Did someone dump him here?
06:53I'm gonna call on a specialist team and then, uh...
06:57Gonna have to tell the mum.
07:05Dump, do you reckon?
07:08No.
07:23He definitely could have fallen from here.
07:26Why was he up here on his own?
07:27Half dressed, no shoes.
07:30Partying in the next town.
07:32Missed his ride back.
07:33Mm.
07:34It's possible.
07:36Oop, oop.
07:36Watch out.
07:39Okay.
07:40Right, so he's standing with his back to the view.
07:44Why did he do?
07:47Because he was looking at somebody else.
07:51And that somebody else was the last person to see him alive.
07:55Better get Jamie up here.
07:57I think he should talk to those girls I saw.
07:59There was something off about them.
08:02Despite the fact that they had the coolest car, honey.
08:05It was red convertible.
08:07Convertible Dodge.
08:08Yeah.
08:09How did you know that?
08:10I saw that car this morning.
08:14They were at the beach when the jet ski was brought in.
08:17Before that, they were out here.
08:26Brooke, Mackenzie and Harper.
08:29When did surnames become first names?
08:32I don't know.
08:33Cold.
08:35Oh, well, that's a nice spot.
08:41So the girls told you they didn't know your own?
08:44Yeah.
08:46I was wondering if they came here before or after they heard he was missing.
08:52Maybe they just came here for a swim.
08:53I mean, it's gorgeous.
08:56Yeah, it sure is.
08:58Hey, shall we, um, just a quick dip?
09:03We didn't bring any.
09:06Right on.
09:17You've got to love New Zealand.
09:19If you can be in a place like this,
09:20you might be worried the wildlife's going to kill you.
09:23Yeah.
09:23No crocs, no snakes, no poisonous bloody spiders.
09:28It's divine.
09:31Oh, no, no, something's touched my leg.
09:34Oh, no, Cole.
09:38There's no crocs, is it?
09:39No, but there are eels which aren't as bitey as crocs, but still.
09:44No.
09:49I tell you what, there is something down there.
09:52Well, honey, don't keep diving down towards...
09:55Oh, for God's sake.
10:00Oh, shit, is that...
10:03Well, I guess we know who that belongs to.
10:05Yeah.
10:06Looks like it's got a laptop inside.
10:09So, you're off with a dollar sign and our mates...
10:12I came here this morning to get rid of it.
10:18Be good if it wasn't completely waterlogged.
10:20Uh, your digital forensics might be able to save it.
10:23I have another idea, just, uh, while we wait.
10:26May I?
10:27Yeah.
10:29Hey, are you okay, Jamie?
10:32I just, um, told her mum that we found her son, and, uh...
10:39Yeah, nah.
10:41Oh, yeah, I'm sorry to say it never gets any easier.
10:45Anyway, um, Gerard's mum provided a list of the stuff he had.
10:52Headphones, bag, computer, wallet, phone, shoes, clothes, belt.
10:57I can cross off the first four things.
11:00And Gerard had that bag over his shoulder when he left his beach house last night.
11:04And this morning there were three girls at the waterhole where we found it.
11:08Right.
11:09I will get statements.
11:11Is that a problem?
11:13No, uh...
11:14I mean, I thought girls in 2014 were scary, but...
11:18these ones today...
11:19terrifying.
11:21Well, do you wanna bodyguard?
11:25Yeah. Go on.
11:38Saffron.
11:40If anyone in this town would know how to fix a laptop that's been submerged in water for hours,
11:45it's you.
11:46How submerged are we talking?
11:48Black bottom of a waterhole submerged.
11:50Yeah, sweet. I'll just chuck it in rice.
11:51Really?
11:52No coal. It's rooted.
11:54Right.
11:57No chance at all?
11:59A couple years back, I was dating this solo mum.
12:02Her kid didn't like me, so one night he chucked my laptop in the spa pool.
12:06Evil child.
12:07He was 23.
12:08He was 23.
12:09That was my Melfira.
12:11Anyway, laptop, spa pool, not good.
12:13But you got your data back?
12:15You have to pull out the drive and let it dry for 48 hours, and then you chuck it into
12:19a working unit and you pray.
12:21I have complete faith in you, Safis.
12:27You visiting from Auckland?
12:30For the whole long weekend?
12:33My grandparents have a place here.
12:35I'm saying you're half his grandparents' place.
12:37Everyone from school was coming and Dad didn't want me to miss out.
12:40So we rented an Airbnb.
12:42Gerard goes to St. Ant's, we go to the sister school.
12:45We're all in the same friend group, but I don't know him that well.
12:48Dad doesn't like me talking to boys.
12:49Me and Gerard, we had a situationship last year, but yeah, he was way too vanilla for me.
12:58Sorry, what's confusing?
13:00Well, this morning you said you didn't know Gerard.
13:02I said we weren't friends with him.
13:05Okay.
13:07Tell us about last night.
13:09We went to the bonfire on the beach.
13:10It was so boring.
13:13Just a bunch of bros sitting around.
13:14You know the kind.
13:16Look like they're obsessed with League of Legends and spiking drinks.
13:20So we left.
13:21In Brookie's car.
13:22Just a three of us.
13:23We don't play well with others.
13:26Where did you go?
13:27I went to mine and dad's Airbnb.
13:29I have a curfew.
13:30Drive around for a bit.
13:31Then home.
13:32Back to Harper's grandparents' place.
13:34Check with my gran if you like.
13:36She told herself we're talking all night.
13:38We're looking for a new model mobile phone.
13:40T-shirt.
13:42Trainers.
13:42But we found the laptop.
13:45So?
13:46You were seen leaving the area it was located in this morning.
13:51Maybe at the waterhole.
13:53I wasn't.
13:54Well passing motorists saw Brook's car leaving the waterhole this morning.
13:58Well that doesn't sound like I was there.
14:01To me.
14:04I know my rights.
14:07I'm leaving.
14:10Harper's definitely the leader.
14:12They make their story out together though.
14:13Why?
14:14I...
14:15Well, so we can't pick it apart?
14:17No, no. I mean what's their motive?
14:19That's what we've got to find out, isn't it?
14:21Excuse me!
14:24I'm Mackenzie Gray's dad.
14:25Greg.
14:26Jamie Hyder.
14:27This is Vinnie Coleman, my consultant.
14:29G'day.
14:30I'm just a bit concerned that you've interrogated my daughter.
14:34Interviewed.
14:35Shouldn't it have been a parent there?
14:36Not if they're over 16.
14:39And the girls all declined that offer.
14:41So what's this shit about, uh, foul play or whatever?
14:46Kid fell off his jet ski.
14:47Uh, I can't really share any more information at the...
14:51Oh.
14:51But you can grill my daughter who's very, very distressed.
14:54Now she's distressed.
14:56No offence intended, but the girls were all very confident,
15:00very articulate and not...distressed.
15:05Well next time you speak to my daughter,
15:07you do it in front of me.
15:09Or my lawyer.
15:19This thing was found in the pocket of the shorts he was wearing,
15:23otherwise...
15:23a nice thing.
15:25Which means somewhere along the line,
15:26he got changed into these borties.
15:29Those aren't borties.
15:30Saffron.
15:32We...we would love it if just...
15:34occasionally you knocked before coming in.
15:37Those are dad shorts.
15:40Ah, well, thanks, Saffron.
15:42Let us know how you go with that computer, eh?
15:43Sure thing, Mr. Deluded.
15:46I prefer Mr. Hopeful.
15:47Thanks, Saffers.
15:49If the laptop's kaput, we need the phone.
15:52Hmm.
15:53Which will be with the clothing?
15:55Might shed some light as to why he's at the top of that cliff.
15:57And then at the bottom of it.
15:59Which one of those girls pushed him?
16:16Hey, Maxine.
16:17Hey.
16:19Your nephew knows Brooke?
16:21Ah, yeah.
16:22From Auckland.
16:24Her and her friends arrived very early this morning.
16:27Very attractive girls.
16:29They all knew the...
16:30you know, the dead boy.
16:31Uh-huh.
16:33Yeah, I lost a good friend of mine when I was 16.
16:36Car accident.
16:37Oh, Maxine, I'm so sorry.
16:39Thanks.
16:40Yeah, it's a hard thing to get your head around,
16:42you know, especially when you're young.
16:44So it'll be good for them to stick together.
16:45Hmm.
17:06Papa.
17:07Hi again.
17:09Don't panic.
17:10Not here as a police consultant today.
17:12Just motel owner.
17:15Weird.
17:16Does, um, no one want a newspaper?
17:19Made of actual paper.
17:21It's not 1950.
17:23So...
17:24Oh.
17:50What the...
17:51...hell?
18:06If you guys hadn't bailed on me...
18:07Where did you even end up?
18:09By the surf club.
18:10Bunch of dicks chucking bottles at police.
18:13Where'd you end up with Gerard?
18:14Nowhere.
18:15Dead.
18:16I saw you.
18:20One minute my bro's getting in your car.
18:22Next he's dead.
18:24So messed up.
18:25So messed up.
18:27He got out of Brooke's car.
18:28We don't even know where.
18:29But he reckoned you guys were gonna hook up.
18:31He saw a bunch of randoms.
18:33He thought he knew.
18:34He went off with them.
18:36No way.
18:37He was literally fine.
18:39So where's all this shit then?
18:40Apparently he had no clothes on.
18:42Maybe he hooked up with someone and got lost.
18:45We don't have a clue what happened.
18:47Okay?
18:48We're sorry and we're sad.
18:50We don't know anything else.
18:52Is that true, Mackenzie?
18:56Why would we lie?
19:00Vanessa.
19:01Hello.
19:01What are you doing?
19:02Oh, I was just, um, making sure you had sheets and towels.
19:08You know I use my own.
19:09Well, I do now.
19:11Love what you've done with the place.
19:13That was a short walk, Maxine.
19:16I forgot my fitness watch.
19:17Of course, you need that.
19:20Were you eavesdropping on my nephew and his friends?
19:23Bloody!
19:25Shit, is that an axolotl?
19:27That's Mark.
19:27He was a present from my ex on one of our anniversaries.
19:30I thought he would have died by now, to be honest.
19:32The axolotl, not Barry.
19:34But they lived for over 15 years.
19:36Anyway, Vanessa.
19:37He's droppin', really?
19:39In my defence.
19:40Yeah?
19:40What I think I heard is that the last time your nephew saw Gerard,
19:45he was getting into a car with those girls.
19:49I see.
19:50So, what happened to that boy isn't a case of misadvention like everyone thinks?
19:56There's a few things that don't add up.
19:59Look, Noah's very impressionable.
20:01Should I be worried?
20:02No, he's holding his own, from what I could hear.
20:05She has an axolotl in there, Cole.
20:09Well, I heard her fighting with her ex over custody of a parrot.
20:13No.
20:13No, she's not bringing a parrot.
20:15What if it talks?
20:16Maxine, wanna crack?
20:18So, what if it does?
20:19Well, it might keep the other guests awake.
20:20I'm Team X in that battle.
20:22Oh.
20:25Do we know what kind of phone Gerard had?
20:31Excuse me.
20:33Hi.
20:34That phone in the window, where did it come from?
20:36Oh, it was in the donation box yesterday morning.
20:38Very generous person out there somewhere.
20:40Just the phone?
20:41Oh, there were some items of clothing.
20:44Shoes, socks.
20:46I disposed of the socks.
20:47We don't sell many of those.
20:48Where's the clothing?
20:49On the men's racks.
20:51I washed and dried them all.
20:53And then they went.
20:55Well, we wash and dry all our donations.
20:57Who wants to be walking around in someone else's hat?
20:59DNA, I know, right?
21:00We'll take the phone, please.
21:02Oh, I knew that'd be snapped up.
21:05Are there any security cameras near the donation box?
21:08Any way of telling who might have dropped these things off?
21:10No.
21:11No.
21:12Why is that?
21:13We're pretty sure these things belong to a boy who died two nights ago.
21:17Oh, I see.
21:18We do get a few estate lots.
21:20No, not an estate lot.
21:23I think whoever dropped these things into the donation box is a person of interest.
21:28Would you like me to put up a post on the community Facebook page?
21:31No.
21:31I think that is everything.
21:34Okay.
21:35Could we grab a bag, please?
21:36We just need to get these items for the police.
21:38Of course.
21:39Okay.
21:41So that'll be $75 and $500 for the phone.
21:45Up.
21:46$450 then.
21:47I'm not going any lower.
21:49The woman at the thrift shop very helpfully washed away any potential forensic evidence.
21:54Look, this is all great.
21:55Jamie, just a quick one.
21:57Can we give you the receipt for reimbursement she made us pay?
21:59We found something.
22:01In the storage compartment on Jarazjewski.
22:05One of yours.
22:08Oh, crap.
22:09I'm guessing you know who might have left it there.
22:14Hey! Oi!
22:15We're just going for a drive, Aunty.
22:18Okay, well, take care, darling.
22:20I'll be fine, Aunty.
22:31Of course she will.
22:35Good boy.
22:42No?
22:44I don't see how that would have happened.
22:45It was in the jet ski, Maxine.
22:48Which means either Gerard nicked Noah's room key.
22:50That'll be it.
22:51Or Noah was with him the night he died, just before he died.
22:54My nephew is a good, good boy.
22:56Okay?
22:57I know.
22:58Top student.
22:59Prefect.
23:01You're not seriously investigating my boy.
23:03I just need him to answer a few questions.
23:07Okay.
23:09I will phone him and bring him to the station.
23:12Appreciate it.
23:12And after that, you're going to owe us an apology.
23:15And I'm going to owe the New Zealand Police a formal complaint.
23:22Phone was wiped.
23:24Laptop was tossed in the water.
23:26Gerard had something on those devices someone wanted gone.
23:30Maybe Noah was in on it with the girls.
23:33He took the jet ski out to make it look like an accident and the girls pushed Gerard from the
23:38lookout.
23:40You really think so, Ben?
23:41I don't know. What do you think?
23:43That if there was a way to retrieve the data from the phone with Noah Lopnell?
23:47Well, maybe he saved whatever it is to the cloud and digital forensics can get into it.
23:51Well, while we're waiting, I'm still hoping Saffron can work a miracle with that laptop.
23:59What are those two up to?
24:02They're doing a runner.
24:07There, there. Noah, there.
24:11OMG, thank you so much.
24:13Hey there.
24:14Don't even think about running, Noah.
24:17We'll catch up with you eventually and it just makes you look guilty.
24:20Guiltier.
24:22Come on, get in.
24:33I know why Noah wanted out of here, but what about you, Mackenzie?
24:35She was just supporting me.
24:38His auntie went off on the phone and he was scared.
24:41And I know what it's like.
24:43Your dad's pretty strict, huh?
24:46Well, you know that he and your auntie, Maxine, they're just worried.
24:51This is the most dangerous time of your life, being a teenager.
24:54Actually, the two most dangerous days of your life are the day you were born and the day you retire.
25:01Right.
25:01Yeah, there's a sudden spike in mortality when you've hit retirement and...
25:06I don't know, I guess people feel like they don't have a purpose anymore.
25:11I'm into probability and statistics.
25:14Well, then you'll know there's a high probability that you have to answer some questions for the police.
25:19Go on, Mackenzie, we'll catch up with you later.
25:25He didn't do anything, you know.
25:27That's okay, Mackenzie.
25:28No, it's not okay.
25:29You shouldn't be accusing everyone of murder.
25:32It's me.
25:33It's not about accusing anyone.
25:36It is about finding an answer for Gerard.
25:39For his parents who are going through hell right now.
25:59Girlfriend?
26:00Just friends.
26:02Hey, I bet there is a reasonable explanation as to why your room key was found inside Gerard's missing jet
26:09ski, right?
26:13Actually...
26:13Yeah.
26:16You stole a jet ski.
26:18I was gonna give it back.
26:20Noah.
26:21It ran out of gas.
26:22Noah, you could have drowned.
26:23You know I'm a good swimmer.
26:25Oh, you swam back?
26:26In the night?
26:27Oh my Godfathers, you could have been attacked by a shark!
26:30Maxine.
26:30What?
26:31Could we just have a minute, please?
26:35He's a good boy.
26:36I know.
26:37I do know.
26:41Yeah.
26:45Okay.
26:49What was the beef with Gerard?
26:50Why did you take the jet ski?
26:52I was wasted and...
26:54I was really pissed off at him.
26:56He took off with Harper and Brooke and Mackenzie.
27:01He didn't even invite me.
27:02Well, the girls said they were just giving him a lift somewhere.
27:05No.
27:05Who couldn't give him more than that?
27:07Well, that's what they told him.
27:09And I thought, nah.
27:11And then they all boosted.
27:13You know the girls quite well.
27:15Is that the sort of thing they do usually?
27:18Harper kind of hates guys and...
27:21I don't know.
27:22Brooke and Gerard used to have a thing, so whatever.
27:26Mackenzie's just really shy most of the time.
27:29So what you're saying is it was out of character
27:31for the girls to invite Gerard to some group sex thing?
27:37Gerard was bullshitting me?
27:40Or they were bullshitting him.
27:49Do you know there's a spike in mortality when people retire?
27:53Babe, the day we retired our lives became less dangerous.
27:57And look at this, the pub I was talking about.
28:00Boom.
28:01Swans game this weekend.
28:02Oh, good.
28:03That'll make it all better.
28:05Oh, sorry.
28:06I'm sorry.
28:06I'm just...
28:07I'm fine.
28:08I'm just having a moment.
28:10I'm coming up a moment over here.
28:15Oh, good.
28:16There you are.
28:18Noah just received a threatening text message.
28:22Hmm?
28:25I will hunt you down.
28:27Well, that's subtle.
28:28You don't know the number.
28:30God, is that another one?
28:32Yep.
28:33Stay away or you will be next.
28:36What if it's a serial killer?
28:37Oh, no.
28:37Talk like this.
28:38Alright.
28:39Hold that thought.
28:43Well, whoever it is they don't want to speak in person.
28:45I'll give it a minute and then I'll try it from my phone.
28:48Maxine, it's probably just some stupid kid trying to freak everyone out.
28:52I'll freak them out.
28:53It's my bloomin' jandal.
28:55Here we go.
28:56Greg Gray speaking.
28:58Greg Gray.
28:59G'day.
29:00Who is this?
29:00Kenzie's dad.
29:01Pete Coleman working with the Morway Bay Police.
29:04You got a minute?
29:05He was leaving town trying to take my daughter with him.
29:09I want to scare him off.
29:12Those kids are already scared.
29:15Look.
29:16She's my baby girl.
29:18I'm protective.
29:19You'll be next.
29:20That's more than protective, mate.
29:22That's called threatening to kill.
29:25Bloody hell.
29:26You alright?
29:27Yeah, I cut myself.
29:29I don't know.
29:29Look.
29:31Mackenzie doesn't have a mum.
29:33It's just me and her.
29:35I get it wrong sometimes.
29:38Can you tell me what you were up to that night?
29:40Eh?
29:41What were you doing two nights ago when Gerard died?
29:45Are you shitting me?
29:46No, I'm not.
29:46I want to know where you were when he died.
29:50I'll give you a minute to think about it, eh?
29:52Yeah.
29:53Hey, boss.
29:54You might want to get back here quick.
29:57What's happened?
29:58I got that laptop drive firing.
30:01And?
30:04It's not good, Cole.
30:06It's bad.
30:07It's...
30:08really bad.
30:13And this kid Gerard, he made these videos himself.
30:16Uh-huh.
30:17Found the software installed there.
30:20Well, I knew this AI stuff was crazy, but that's...
30:22Deepfakes.
30:24It's amazing what you can do these days with the right app.
30:26It just gets harder and harder to tell what's real.
30:29I almost got sucked in by a cat catching it to a Tara.
30:31And, you know, the fact that the faces don't match the bodies
30:34or what the bodies are doing.
30:35Yep.
30:36Okay.
30:36All right.
30:39Harper and the others must have found out about these.
30:43And that is a motive if I ever saw one.
30:46I just lost my best friend
30:50And all the friends we used to share
30:54I'll never see again
30:57I just shot
31:01A boy through his heart
31:05And I didn't need no bullets
31:08I can't pretend to know how you feel.
31:12How'd you find them?
31:14Um, Brooke had a thing with Gerard.
31:17And he was always super weird about his computer.
31:19So one day I had a look and I saw this hidden folder.
31:23And you had no idea before that?
31:25That he was a disgusting creep making fake porn?
31:27No!
31:29There was even one of his teachers from school on there.
31:32No woman was safe with Gerard around.
31:34But they are now.
31:36We didn't do anything.
31:39I get that you would want to get these videos out of circulation.
31:43He wasn't circulating them, but...
31:45Yeah, but he did have another hard drive.
31:47When did he say that?
31:50I don't know. People have more than one hard drive.
31:53Hey, can we please go now?
31:55My dad is gonna freak.
31:57I'll check with Constable Hyder.
31:59We have everything we need.
32:07Noah's story about the gas checks out.
32:10Hey, um...
32:11I'm really glad you were here today.
32:13I mean, talk about out of my depth.
32:15Teenage girls are terrifying.
32:17I'll, um...
32:18I'll let them go home for now.
32:19We can always bring them back in.
32:25As is?
32:27Uh, yeah.
32:28Yeah, it'll be going back to his mum.
32:33No, no, no.
32:34Hey, hey, hey.
32:34No, no!
32:35Whoa, whoa, whoa!
32:36Ah!
32:39Ah!
32:42Ah!
32:46Ah!
32:47Harper.
32:49Harper!
32:50Hey, hey, hey!
32:51Hey!
32:52Harper, hey!
32:57Just...
33:06Feel better?
33:09Sorrow...
33:10Concealed like an oven stopped to burn the heart to cinders where it is.
33:17Okay, um...
33:19That's deep.
33:19I've done a thousand dreadful things as willingly as one would kill a fly.
33:24Are we having a Shakespeare off?
33:26Cause I don't think...
33:27Nothing grieves me heartily indeed, but that I cannot do 10,000 more.
33:35I get it.
33:37I get it.
33:38You're angry.
33:40You can talk to me.
33:43And properly, not in quotes from Hamlet.
33:45I just...
33:46It's not Hamlet, it's Titus Andronicus.
33:49It's about violent bloody revenge.
33:56You wanna tell me what happened?
34:03We just wanted to get rid of those videos and make sure he never did it to anyone else.
34:12Nobody was meant to die.
34:20And the rest?
34:22He's first.
34:27What's wrong?
34:30You afraid we'll make some porn?
34:38What the hell?
34:39What?
34:42We found your wank bank of deep fakes.
34:45You're a filthy creep and we're gonna end you.
34:48But that was it.
34:51We jumped in Brooke's car and got out of there.
34:53Really?
34:55Hurry up!
34:56Oh my God!
34:57The end!
34:59I can't find the keys!
35:02Guys, what is it?
35:03Hurry up!
35:04Hurry up!
35:05Hurry up!
35:06Hurry up!
35:06Hurry up!
35:07Hurry up!
35:16He was alive when we left.
35:18We just thought he'd have a long, horrible walk home.
35:21It's pretty dangerous.
35:23Open road at night.
35:26Do you think he slipped and fell?
35:29He took his clothes.
35:32But he was wearing shorts when he was found.
35:35We think he met someone else along his travels.
35:39Where did you girls go next?
35:41We drove back here.
35:42Um, dumped his shit at the thrift shop.
35:44And then like I already said, we dropped Mackenzie to our Airbnb.
35:48Me and Brooke went back to my grandparents.
35:51You have to believe me.
35:55What do you mean you believe her?
35:56Yeah.
35:57Well, I have plenty of motive.
35:59It lasts to see him, but my wife has a hunch.
36:03Let's hear it.
36:03There must be someone or something we're missing.
36:09What do you think about the dad, Greg?
36:11He had a cut up here.
36:14What, like a defence wound?
36:16That's what I was thinking.
36:20Oh shit.
36:23That little thing.
36:25What, the little bit of silicon?
36:27Yeah, it was in these shorts.
36:29In the pocket, yeah.
36:32It's not a defence wound.
36:34It's more mundane than that.
36:35And what did Saffron say the other day?
36:36Oh honey, Saffron says a lot of things.
36:39Dad shorts.
36:47Finn.
36:54Huh, nice spot in coal.
36:58What now?
36:59I never got an answer about where you were the night Gerard died.
37:03Here, watching the cricket all night.
37:06The thing is, when Gerard's body was found,
37:09he was wearing a pair of shorts we're pretty sure belonged to you, Greg.
37:12What are you talking about?
37:15No.
37:16No.
37:17Can't be.
37:18Then how come the missing piece of your sunglasses was found in the pocket?
37:21That's how you cut your nose the other day.
37:23Nasty.
37:27I swear to God, I have no idea how he would have got my shorts.
37:31You still maintain you were alone, watching the cricket?
37:35No.
37:36I, uh...
37:38Look, people saw me, okay?
37:39People can verify.
37:41I went out looking for Mackenzie and walked around and ended up at the surf club.
37:46Why not just say?
37:47Because I hate how I've become that bad out spying on a 17-year-old daughter.
37:53So you found her?
37:54No.
37:55It was crowded.
37:55I couldn't see her or her friends.
37:57You said people could verify.
37:58Yes.
38:00Look, if you asked around...
38:01Oh, it's Jay!
38:03Who's the dude?
38:04Go on, girl.
38:06Come on, let me hear you.
38:08Look at that, ladies!
38:12How did Gerard come to be wearing your shorts?
38:14I have no clue, right?
38:16I tossed him in the car boot after fishing last weekend.
38:19Does your daughter drive?
38:21Yeah, she, uh, she's got her restricted.
38:24Could you have taken your car?
38:27No.
38:28I just told you, she's on her restricted licence.
38:31She can't drive after 10.
38:32I don't know where the hell you two are going with this, but my daughter...
38:35Wait, wait, wait, wait.
38:37The guitar's stopped.
38:40There.
38:42Mackenzie!
38:51Mackenzie!
38:56Hey!
38:57Hey, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay.
38:58I just wanna help.
39:00I just wanna help.
39:03I'll bring Brooke to the rescue.
39:07They don't know anything about it.
39:09About what, Mackenzie?
39:12I-I didn't mean to.
39:14It's okay.
39:15I know.
39:17You were just trying to punish him.
39:19Yeah.
39:20Take the power back.
39:22So the three of you took Gerard to the waterhole.
39:25Left him there with...
39:26No clothes, no phone, no way back.
39:29No!
39:30He deserved it.
39:31He made us feel like...
39:34He can't do that to us, that's not fair.
39:36No, no, I agree.
39:38You thought he was your friend.
39:41You didn't know he had a...
39:43Library of videos.
39:45Stuff none of you have ever done or wanted to do.
39:48Until you wanted to teach him a lesson.
39:50Let him walk home back over those hills.
39:52Yeah.
39:55Look at what happened.
39:56You had to change your heart.
40:02Harper and Brooke dropped me home.
40:04Dad was asleep.
40:05I tried to sleep too, but I couldn't.
40:07I mean, I hated Gerard so much.
40:10But what if he got hit by a car or something?
40:12So you went back.
40:14I'm so sorry you guys.
40:16Oh no.
40:17It's okay, it's okay.
40:21You took your dad's car.
40:24Caught up with Gerard.
40:25But look out near the top of the hill and...
40:27gave him your dad's shorts from the back of the car and told him you'd drive him back, yeah?
40:32But Gerard wasn't grateful that you'd come to rescue him.
40:36You owe me new ladtop, you ugly bitch.
40:40Shall we go back to the waterhole?
40:43And I'll just throw you in and hold you under.
40:46I could even be bothered.
40:48I saw a car with Mackenzie.
40:50He was gonna take dad's car and leave me there.
40:52Gerard, Gerard, please, we can both just go back.
40:54I don't fall for baby feminist tears.
40:57I came back here to help you!
40:58Those films were my private use and you shouldn't have gotten to my shit!
41:02I should report you.
41:04But you know what I'm gonna do instead?
41:06I've got a hard drive.
41:07And your video is gonna be the first one I post.
41:10But not before I email it to your dad.
41:23That sounds like an accident to me.
41:30Councilor Hyder's gonna want to take a statement.
41:32You just tell him exactly what you've told me, okay?
41:37It's gonna be okay, Gens, I promise.
41:40Dad!
41:42Dad!
41:46I didn't...
41:47I didn't need to do it.
41:49I'm sorry.
41:57I was...
41:59Last-minute plans
42:02Their last-minute lies
42:05Don't get too mad
42:07I know you can
42:09Be unkind just cause they'd treat...
42:12Well...
42:13That was a result.
42:20Not the one you were hoping for, huh?
42:23No, a time that's made me soft.
42:26I need to toughen up.
42:31Come here.
42:47Hey, you made it.
42:49Yep, but, warning, I've never understood Aussie rules.
42:53Well, you are about to be educated, my friend.
42:57Hey.
42:59Hey.
43:00Hey.
43:00You here for the AFL too?
43:02No.
43:02Well, yeah.
43:04Cole wanted us to come to cheer you up.
43:08Come here.
43:10Oh.
43:11Oh, thank you.
43:13Some places feels like there's no winners,
43:15so I appreciate it.
43:16Oh, you're welcome, Vanessa.
43:18And you, my friend, owe me a Chardonnay
43:20and this one a light beer.
43:21Oh, light beer?
43:23Sounds awesome.
43:24Hey, how's Mackenzie?
43:26Do you know?
43:26I'm not really supposed to say this,
43:28but she's kind of a legend.
43:30Noah, murder is never the answer.
43:32Manslaughter.
43:33Never the answer.
43:34Doesn't it depend what the question is?
43:36Oh, get inside, you two.
43:37Jokes.
43:38No.
43:39Light beers for both of you.
43:40Don't touch my wallets.
43:41It's just, it was just...
43:42Come on, come on.
43:43I'll take it for you as well, actually.
43:47Everyone in town calls you Blue Murder Motel.
43:50Do they?
43:51You bet the guy that blew himself up,
43:53calm is a beautiful thing.
43:55Your victim, Jean, he had no fixed address,
43:58no next of kin.
43:59Oh, hi.
44:00It won't be a second.
44:01The old owner's never had this many guests.
44:03We like guests, Saffron.
44:05Oh, this wasn't.
44:06Probably wasn't an accidental death.
44:09I heard you two used to be private investigators.
44:12Or still are.
44:14Honey, I thought we weren't allowed to do that again.
