00:01Closer each day
00:04I'm in no way
00:08Sarge
00:08I found this under the cot
00:10Do you think it's possible that my mum planted those drugs?
00:13Yes I do
00:14And so has Donna
00:15Taking you off the case
00:16Well you can't actually do that Sargeant
00:18You're way too close to this
00:20I asked them to block your access to the database
00:22Do you by any chance remember where your parents used to buy their drugs?
00:26Yeah, I can think of a few people actually
00:28I'm applying for leave
00:29Something's come up
00:29I'm not in the mood, Yemen
00:31What are you up to?
00:32It's personal
00:33Your mum
00:34I've been beating myself up about it
00:36But cash is on to it
00:37I have a right to refuse service
00:38And I am exercising that right
00:40As of now, get out
00:41I just think you should give her a break
00:43It's Harper's fault that Tani is in this mess
00:45And I have a right to do whatever I want here
00:48What are you doing there?
00:49Tani, I was trying to support you
00:51We can't put all this on Harper
00:53Tani, we had an alert from your monitor
00:56Yeah, it just started beeping
00:57But I'm on my way home now, so
00:59It doesn't go off for no reason
01:00Well, obviously I haven't run away
01:01I'm standing right here, aren't I?
01:03This isn't just about where you are
01:04If that's being tampered with
01:06That's also a breach of your bail
01:07You're coming with me now
01:25G'day John, how's your day been?
01:28No time to chat, I'm sorry
01:30Bye, my mate
01:31I'm in a rush
01:32I've got to get down to the tile shop before it closes
01:35Pick up an order
01:36What are you buying tiles for?
01:38Oh, just a minor bathroom renter
01:39You're not going to do that yourself, are you?
01:41Of course I am
01:42Mate, tradies, tradies, they're extortionists
01:45Yeah, the thing about tradies is they know what they're doing
01:48How hard can it be?
01:50You bash off a few old tiles and bang on a few new ones
01:53It's a big job
01:54I've seen enough online videos about it
01:56I'm not afraid of a bit of concrete
01:57I can flout the ground
02:00Actually, why don't you join me?
02:02You might learn a thing or two
02:04You're trying to get some free labour out of me, are you?
02:06I would never
02:07Ah, I'm going to give that a pass
02:10Going to go spend some quality time with Lear
02:12I'm glad to hear things are going well there
02:14Me too
02:14Well, never mind, I'll be fine without you
02:22The hundredth time yesterday, I charged it last night and again today
02:24And you haven't tampered with it in any way
02:26No, I'm not an idiot, I know I'll end up in a munt if I mess with it
02:29I had to ask the question
02:30Can we just get this thing to stop beefing?
02:32Let me make a call, see what I can do
02:34And then I can leave, right?
02:35Just sit tight
02:47Look, I hope my tea's okay
02:48That's all Tana has
02:49Thanks
02:50Sorry, it took a bit longer to get Archie down than normal
02:53I can look after him while we wait for Tana to get back if you need to go somewhere
02:56I can wait
02:58He and Mackenzie must be really getting into it
03:00Yeah, well, she can't hold the grudge if he won't
03:03She was pretty angry
03:04I don't even know if Tana can talk her down
03:06At the end of the day, you're both on the same side
03:09He'll get through to her
03:12Hi
03:13Hi
03:13Hi
03:14Well, I thought Tana came to see you
03:16He did, yeah
03:18But his ankle monitor went off again
03:20Again?
03:21Mm-hmm
03:21What do you mean again?
03:22It's been beeping all day
03:23And then the cops came and took him away
03:25What? Are you serious?
03:28Okay, no, this is ridiculous, I'm gonna call my dad
03:30No point, your dad was on who arrested him
03:41Come on
03:46Yeah, yeah, it stopped
03:48Alright, how long till you have the findings?
03:52Alright, thanks
03:55Hey, it's fixed now, stop beeping
03:57It's just been disabled
03:58Alright, so I can go now?
04:00You can't leave here without a working monitor
04:03Alright, then get me a new one
04:04You're not the one giving orders here
04:06Well, like I told you, I didn't touch it
04:07Okay, it just started beeping for no reason
04:09If that's what they find has happened then
04:11If!
04:12Like I said, it started beeping for no reason
04:14I heard what you said
04:15What, so you're seriously gonna keep me here
04:16Because of your bad equipment?
04:18Is Tana in there? I need to speak to him
04:21Dad, what are you doing?
04:23We're sorting it out
04:24Oh, by sorting it out, do you mean arresting my boyfriend again?
04:26Technically he's not under arrest, I brought him in for questioning
04:30Oh, is that supposed to make me feel better, is it?
04:38Cash!
04:39Hey!
04:39Haven't seen you for a couple of days
04:40Yeah, been away
04:42What, without the missus? Work trip?
04:44Yeah, something like that
04:45Oh, since you're back, if you've got a minute
04:47Oh, actually, I was just about to go check in on Tana
04:50Okay, fair enough
04:52What did you want help with?
04:53Well, I wouldn't mind a hand getting these tiles inside
04:57Hey, fellas
04:59Hey!
05:00Well, look at this
05:01You've changed your mind about helping me, have you?
05:03I thought you didn't want to do my work for me
05:05No, I also didn't want to see you struggling
05:08But I can see Cash has got you covered
05:09Oh, thank you, mate
05:10Cheers
05:10People would have managed
05:11But as they say, you know, many hands make light work
05:16I don't have long, alright?
05:18I've got to go and meet later after a shift
05:19Yeah, I've got to be at work soon, yeah?
05:21Well, let's get moving, hey?
05:22Top, top, come on
05:23These tiles aren't going to move themselves
05:24Come on, put your backs into it
05:26I'll open the door
05:30I'm glad he's too young to understand any of this
05:32Yeah
05:33Well, I'm guessing there's no picture books
05:35Or nursery rhymes explaining
05:37I hope Jo hasn't gone in all guns blazing
05:44Well, I kind of hope she has
05:46You know, I'd be going off
05:48We both know that
05:50Yeah, I would be
05:51I guess it's not always a bad thing
05:55Well, I really could try to control my temper
05:58So I don't end up doing things I regret
06:00Like banning people from my restaurant
06:03You had a right to be angry
06:04No
06:06It was completely misdirected
06:08You cannot be responsible for your mother's actions
06:12I'm really sorry
06:14Please come back to us all
06:17Are you sure?
06:18Yeah
06:19And I think it's really important that
06:21You know, we're all united
06:22At Tony right now
06:24Yeah, I think so too
06:26Okay, so the deal is
06:27Free cocktails on the house
06:29And then we'll call it square
06:31Sounds good
06:32Yeah? Does that sound good?
06:34Yes it does
06:36Yes it does
06:36Yes it does
06:37Well at least the monitor stopped going off, right?
06:40Are you seriously trying to get me to see the bright side of this?
06:43Trust you, I'm not thrilled about it either
06:46How are you being so calm?
06:47Because your dad will let me go once they work out what's going on
06:50And then I haven't actually touched the monitor
06:54How are you holding up?
06:55Well, I think he'd be better if he was at home instead of being here for no reason
06:59Joe
07:01Look, how do they find out what's going on?
07:03It's not the batteries
07:04And they can't see anything that could explain it
07:06Look, I was with him most of the day
07:08He never went further than the surf club and I never saw him trying to tamper with it, Dad
07:12I believe you
07:13Isn't that enough?
07:14No, Joe
07:15It's not
07:15The court won't take much stock in the word of his girlfriend
07:20Dodge?
07:21What's going on?
07:22His monitor went off
07:23We can't work out the reason
07:25Okay, have we got somebody sorting it out?
07:26Of course
07:27But they need to run a full diagnostic test
07:30And that could take time
07:31Wait, wait
07:32How much time?
07:33You might need to stay here tonight
07:50Thanks for that, mate
07:51I had no idea there was so much to unload before you started unloading
07:55No worries
07:56So, can I buy you a beer if you're troubled?
07:58No, no thanks
07:59I promised Leo I'd bring home dinner
08:01Hmm
08:01So
08:03You sure you're alright to be doing this Renault DIY?
08:06Of course I am
08:07I'll give myself the night off and start first thing tomorrow morning
08:10I don't know
08:11Sounds like a goer
08:12I suppose you'll be surfing, won't you, tomorrow in the morning?
08:16Thanks
08:17That was the plan
08:18Fair enough, fair enough
08:19Good I don't need people getting in my way
08:21Maybe I'll stop by afterwards and see how you're going
08:24No need for that, I don't want to keep you away from Leo
08:27Fado
08:27Thanks again, mate
08:30Ooh
08:35Some things they'll never end
08:40So, what happens tomorrow morning when they still haven't figured it out?
08:43What, are you going to keep me here forever?
08:45We'll have to reassess, take it in front of the magistrate
08:47The magistrate?
08:48Wait, what?
08:50Why would it go that far?
08:51You can't prove he's done anything wrong
08:52The rules are clear
08:54Yeah, and you have no problem enforcing them, do you?
08:56Look, I'm meant to be with my son tonight, okay?
08:59You're keeping me from him
09:00Tanya, Sarge is right
09:02We need to make sure that this is a malfunction, not a breach of your bail conditions
09:06Wow, this is so unfair
09:10Hey, maybe you should just go home, yeah?
09:12I'm not leaving you here
09:14You're not staying with him in the cell, Joe
09:16Look, there's nothing more we can do, right now
09:18And Harper needs to know what's going on
09:23Mackenzie, too
09:23I left them both
09:25You better go see if the house is still standing there
09:28Hey, can you say goodnight to Archie for me, please?
09:33I will
09:38Joe, can you hold on a minute?
09:43I'll get the cell sorted
09:48Mate
09:49Please tell me you have some good news
09:51Sorry?
09:53You didn't find anything?
09:54Well, all the information that Harper gave me was ten years old
09:56I don't walked around her old neighbourhood, but nobody knew any of the drug dealers
10:00So, we're exactly where we started
10:02I need access to the database to find these people
10:11Huh
10:12Didn't feel like cooking tonight
10:14Oh, I had big plans to treat Leah, but ran out of time thanks to John
10:17Oh, what's he done now?
10:19Oh, nothing
10:20I just got caught up helping him move some tiles and plumbing stuff for his reno
10:24Reno?
10:26DIY, apparently
10:27Ooh, I'd buy tickets to see them
10:30I feel a little bit bad because I know he's going to need a lot of help
10:32And I just sort of ducked out on him
10:35Why do you feel bad?
10:37Come on, you know this isn't going to go well
10:39Palmer doing a DIY reno?
10:42What could possibly go wrong?
10:43Yeah, exactly, it's a disaster waiting to happen
10:45Yeah, that may well be the case, mate
10:48But it ain't your problem
10:50You don't reckon I should have tried harder to talk him into getting a professional?
10:54You know Palmer, he knows it all
10:56Right, I know
10:57So, if you want my advice, I'd stay well clear of it
11:00Otherwise, you'll finish up doing the lot
11:03So true, so true
11:05And you know, I think it's going to be mostly fine
11:07I mean, how much damage can the guy actually do?
11:13This isn't Tanya's fault, how can they lock him up in a cell again?
11:16And what if they can't figure out what to set the monitor off?
11:19Case has to go back before the magistrate
11:21And how about if the magistrate doesn't believe him either?
11:24He could end up in remand until his court date
11:27This is a nightmare
11:28Yeah
11:29And there is nothing that David can do to help?
11:31No, unfortunately
11:33And trust me, I tried
11:35We're just going to have to wait and see how this plays out
11:40I better get Archie home
11:43Harper, do you need help getting Arch into the car?
11:47Yeah, thanks
11:49Jo, did you want a lift? You must be exhausted
11:51Oh no, I'm just going to stay here tonight
12:01Cheers mate
12:02Tanya's food?
12:03Yeah
12:04You heading off the night?
12:05Yeah, I got some things to check in on at home
12:07You got it from here?
12:08Yeah, yeah, I got it
12:09Enjoy your night
12:09Newman
12:11I trust there won't be any special visitors?
12:15No, you don't need to worry about that, Sergeant
12:18Anything to tell me about your time off?
12:20No
12:21We both know you're investigating something for Tanya
12:24What'd you find out?
12:25Didn't you say you had to head home?
12:26Cards on the table, Newman
12:28You don't get to kick me off the case and demand information
12:30That's not how it works
12:58John?
13:03Oh, Justin!
13:04Good morning
13:05Hey, hey listen, I couldn't ask you for a bit of help, could I?
13:08What happened?
13:10Tiny little snafu with the tiling
13:13Tiny?
13:14Yeah
13:14Hey, I came across a burst water pipe
13:17Was it burst before or after you came across it?
13:21Well, I suppose I could have cut it, yeah
13:23Oh
13:24With what?
13:24Well, I was struggling with the stupid tile cutter, so I thought I'd power up a bit
13:28And anyways, a long story
13:30I turned the water off at the mains
13:32You need a plumber, mate?
13:33Yeah, and a pot of gold with which to pay the plumber
13:35Well, how bad is it in there?
13:38Little bit of flooding
13:39Little bit?
13:41Well, I wouldn't say it was bad
13:42It's mainly in the bathroom and, well, outside the bathroom
13:45And, I don't know, about five centimetres underwater
13:55What's going on here?
13:56Well, they finally figured out the issue
13:58The alarm was due to a malfunction
14:00Right
14:01They fixed it up now
14:02Yeah, which means I can go home
14:04If it's okay with you, of course
14:06I'm sorry this took so long to sort out
14:08Really?
14:09That's all you have to say?
14:10Oh, Tarno, we could have done it a bit faster
14:12It was unfortunate
14:14You have no clue, do you?
14:16I could be looking at years in prison
14:18Every second with my son counts
14:19You took that away from me
14:21I understand that
14:22And I hope you can understand that I have a job to do
14:24Oh, and you do it so well
14:26What, you think this is fun for me?
14:28My daughter is in the middle of this
14:32I am not the enemy
14:34Do you at least believe that?
14:37Right
14:38Too much to ask, I guess
14:40Take him home
14:48Hopper
14:49Hey
14:50Hey
14:51Have you heard anything?
14:53No, not yet
14:54Guessing you didn't say it very much
14:56Still probably better than Tarno
14:59Well, I'm going to get you a coffee
15:00Thank you
15:03David
15:04Before you ask
15:05He's been released
15:07So, he doesn't have to go in front of the magistrate?
15:10Everything's fine?
15:11The problem was on our end
15:12Well, obviously
15:13I mean, he did try to tell you that
15:15And he was right
15:17Now he's home
15:17So, can I get the Brick of Spirito to go, please?
15:20You sure can, David
15:21Thank you
15:22Hopper, your coffee will be right out
15:23Thanks
15:27Is there anything new you can tell me about Mum?
15:30If it's news you're after
15:31Maybe Cash has something for you
15:33He's back now
15:35I don't know what you mean
15:37Sure you don't
15:38Anyway, I'm not asking Cash
15:40I'm asking you
15:40Well, nothing's changed, Hopper
15:42This is an active investigation
15:43And I cannot talk about it
15:45Yeah, but if there's anything that you can share
15:46Why can't I go anywhere in this town
15:48Without someone asking me to bend the rules for them?
15:50I only thought
15:51I follow the rules
15:53It'd be nice if everyone else did the same
16:02No
16:03Oh, no, no thank you
16:03They kept me fed last night
16:05Oh, I still managed to steal a slice of your pizza?
16:07Oh, I thought you did
16:09Seem like you're feeling better
16:12Just glad to be home
16:13It was weird being here without you last night
16:15I can't blame you for not wanting to go back to your Dad's house
16:18Hey, don't you have work soon?
16:21Yeah, but I was thinking I'd just call in sick today
16:23Nah, hey, don't do that
16:24I'm fine
16:25Honestly, I'm just going to be catching up on sleep anyway
16:28Are you sure?
16:29No
16:30Okay
16:33Just try to rest, relax and enjoy being home, yeah?
16:36Mhm
16:41Not much chance of relaxing with this thing on
16:45I'm sorry the trip was a bust
16:47So what's next?
16:49I don't know
16:51Without access to the police database
16:52I don't know what the next step is
16:55It's Harper
16:56She probably wants to know what you found out
17:00I'm going to call her back
17:01Mate, she might have more information
17:02Maybe she's remembered something else
17:04Harper's not the one that can help us right now
17:07Sarge knew I was working the case whilst I was away
17:10Not surprising
17:11That man's a lot of things, but he's not stupid
17:14He actually asked me to share my information
17:17You reckon that means it's open to other leads?
17:19I know he's keen to find the truth
17:22And I need someone with access to the police database
17:24So I can verify the information Harper's given us
17:26Mate, don't put yourself in the fire mine for me, okay?
17:32No
17:33Hey Sarge
17:34What are you doing here?
17:35The station said you came home
17:39It said you weren't the enemy
17:42What do you mean that?
17:43You're seriously coming to my house and asking me that question?
17:49What's this?
17:50That's what I've been working on
17:55Who are these people?
17:57Harper gave me a list of names
17:58People she remembers from her childhood
18:00He could have supplied Kerry with the drugs
18:02So that's what you've been doing?
18:04Trying to track them down?
18:05Yes Sarge
18:06So when I told you you were off the case
18:07You outright ignored me?
18:08Well you asked me to put my cards on the table Sarge
18:12I've brought you a lead that might help us find a suspect
18:15What I should be doing is suspending you for disobeying an order
18:19Well, that would be your prorogative, Sargeant
18:23But we both want to get to the truth
18:25Don't we?
18:33How are you supposed to know where the pipes are in the first place?
18:36I mean, it's almost like you need a little map
18:38X marks the spot
18:40Or, you know, beware
18:41Irritary U-bench
18:42So they're called blueprints, John?
18:45Well, that would have been helpful
18:46Yeah, well, I'll be getting a plumber to look at it
18:48That's the important thing
18:49Yeah, and they're gonna drain me for every cent I've got
18:52Pun intended
18:52You want some water?
18:54No, I've got enough water for one day
18:55Yeah, alright
18:56Look, you're welcome to stay as long as you need, alright?
18:59Thank you, I appreciate that
19:00Now, I will go and set up the spare rooms
19:03No, no, no need
19:03I can do that
19:04That's fine, I can do it
19:05No, no, no, you've already put yourself out enough for me
19:10You know, back in my navy days
19:13They used to cram a whole heap of us into real close quarters
19:16Yeah, I bet
19:17Yeah, yeah, we had to live light, tight and tidy
19:20Get ready to grab all your worldly possessions in an instant
19:23And head off to another port
19:26What I'm saying is
19:27I don't even think you're gonna know I'm here
19:29It's no trouble at all, alright?
19:31You need a place to stay
19:33We're here to help
19:34You'd have done the same for me
19:35Yeah, well, it's a very kind thing you're doing for me
19:37You're a true friend
19:38And so's Leah for agreeing to this
19:41Yeah
19:41Yeah
19:44Not that one, mate
19:45It's down the hall, second door on the right
19:46Yep
19:51I'm still not impressed that you went off on a personal crusade
19:55I understand that, Sarge
19:56Any investigation has to be official
19:58Or the findings may not be admissible in court
20:01Then let's make it official
20:03I've given you all the names
20:04Still doesn't excuse the fact that you went rogue in the first place
20:07Well, I don't think that I can be expected to sit back and watch an innocent man go to prison
20:12Now, I will assume that there's still no word from Kerry Matheson
20:15And there's no activity on her phone or a bank account
20:17Nothing's changed on that front
20:19Sarge, if you run those names through the database
20:21They could lead you straight to her
20:25I guess I can't fault your dedication to the investigation
20:29Or your mate
20:33How was he when you took him home?
20:36He's struggling
20:38He was worried about his son
20:41Which is why it's important that we find these people
20:44I don't have the personnel to follow this up
20:49You're back on the case, Newman
20:52Yes, Sarge
20:54I head back home and get changed
20:55See you at the station
21:02Are you sure that you should be pushing yourself?
21:08I mean, you've been so unwell
21:09Well, maybe I just haven't had the right distraction
21:11I want to be on the bike, by myself, in control again
21:15I don't think that riding the bike is a good idea
21:18Don't do this
21:19You should try again
21:21I guess
21:21You've got a choice between offsetting him or scraping him off the road
21:24Knowing that you're out there riding
21:25And could have a seizure at any second
21:27It's too much
21:28If having this tumour has taught me one thing
21:30It is that life is short
21:32Was there any other things
21:32What is the long time
21:32That is not something
21:32Not even if you want
21:32I you know
21:32That is not something
