00:07I've set your court date. It's next week.
00:10I'm screwed.
00:11Once I sit full inside their courtroom, I'm not coming home.
00:14Honey, I just wanted to say again how sorry I am.
00:16Look, let's just, I don't want to lose it in front of Archie, so let's have some space between us.
00:20Dean, hi.
00:22Hypothetically, if someone needed to disappear, could you help them do that?
00:30Dad, you're back!
00:31Here he is, right on time.
00:33Dean Thompson called.
00:35Been a while.
00:36Someone from back home needs a place to hide out for a bit.
00:39Well, I hope you told them no.
00:41Perhaps you did tell them no, right?
00:43If the cops are looking for this guy, he could lead them straight to us.
00:46I wreck you.
00:47That could destroy everything we've built here.
00:50You're going to say yes, aren't you?
00:52You always fighting a losing battle from the get-go.
00:55Yeah?
00:56Once a river boy, always a river boy.
01:00I tried to fight, just wanted it to stop.
01:05I didn't mean to, I didn't mean to kill him.
01:08Why do I bother pretty on this uniform every day if I can't even protect my own orders?
01:23Okay.
01:24We need to talk about your court appearance today.
01:26Your solicitor is on their way, so you just follow their instructions, and when you face the magistrate, you'll enter
01:34a plea of not guilty.
01:37But I did it.
01:39I hit him, Dad.
01:40It was self-defense, Ice.
01:44Will you be there?
01:45I'll be with you the whole time.
01:50Dean will arrange all of it.
01:51Just say the word, and the river boys will help you disappear.
01:55Just like that, eh?
01:57Just like that.
01:58They'll get you out of town, and they'll set you up.
02:02Can't believe I'm hearing these words coming out of your mouth, Mackenzie.
02:05Well, I can't believe that the police would send an innocent man to prison, but here we are.
02:15So, I'll be leaving.
02:16Everything.
02:17It's completely up to you.
02:19I just, I can't watch you go through all this, and not try and find you, and the option...
02:24I'll just drop it, drop it.
02:25Yeah, yeah, okay.
02:26Well, you just, um, you just let me know as soon as you're coming, okay?
02:29Yeah.
02:29And you'll go from there.
02:30Alright.
02:32Hi!
02:33Hey.
02:35See you soon.
02:36Hi, Arch.
02:40Morning, son.
02:42Can we talk?
02:43I feel like we need to clear the air.
02:46Oh, look, I'm not really up for it, to be honest.
02:49If you're not busy, did you want to hang with Archie for a while?
02:54Yeah, actually, that would be great.
02:57Well, let me know when you want me to pick him up.
02:59Have fun with your dad, little man.
03:03Pop it back again.
03:09You know it's been a long time, but now I'm going to miss her.
03:18Right, everyone, quick chat.
03:21First of all, good job with the muster.
03:24Big couple of days, another year done and dusted.
03:27All done.
03:29Another big one today, though.
03:30First thing we've got to do is fix the fence in the cooling pen.
03:33Any takers for that?
03:36Yeah, Brett, I'll do it.
03:37Good man.
03:37Now we know he's getting first beer tonight.
03:39Liv, I'll get you up at the yards in Sandfire for when the trucks get here.
03:43Everyone else, we're drafting this lot, so warm up your hammies.
03:49So, hey, what are you doing today?
03:50Oh, mate, this and that.
03:52Probably be in the shed.
03:54Oh, yeah, can I help?
03:57Yeah, give me a car.
03:58Yes!
04:05You having second thoughts?
04:09Of course not.
04:11So, when's he coming?
04:13Don't know yet.
04:13Dad, hurry up!
04:15All right, well, you better go before he busts something.
04:18All right, I'll see you.
04:19See you.
04:20I got so good at bad mistakes, but I'm all wrong.
04:25My son, here we are again, eh?
04:32I don't remember the first time I brought you to the ocean, eh?
04:35It's a small bit.
04:39There's still so much I wanted to teach you.
04:46But you're going to grow up in a good home.
04:49And you have a good mum.
04:53I promise to take care of her, okay?
04:55She's a really good mum.
05:04I'm going to miss you so much.
05:06Hey.
05:06Hey.
05:07I'm better off when you're around.
05:10You give me light.
05:14I love you so much.
05:21Hey, hey, hey.
05:25Hey, hey, hey.
05:26Hey, hey, hey.
05:28I never felt this way before you.
05:32Oh, I never knew.
05:35Yeah.
05:41Oh, you, um, chuck us that socket there, mate.
05:45Sure.
05:47When this is fixed up, I can come out and help on next year's monster, right?
05:51Well, we've spoken about this, haven't we?
05:54I know. Not until I'm 15.
05:56Well, not until you're tall enough to ride this.
06:00Well, look, what about this?
06:01What about next year, I'll take you out in the ute,
06:05and you can watch.
06:06And learn?
06:07Really? You promise?
06:08Or if your school report card's up to scratch.
06:12And no mucking around with the case, because I can tell.
06:14Deal.
06:17Here you go.
06:18Oh, thanks.
06:24You worried?
06:26No.
06:26Not even a little bit.
06:28Oh, you know, I was just thinking about how good we've got it here.
06:32That's right. Yeah, over a decade of peace.
06:34It's been pretty good.
06:35Yeah, right.
06:36Major point.
06:39I get it.
06:40Like, this guy must be going through hell.
06:43Why else would he leave his whole life behind?
06:46Yeah, I know.
06:46It's not an easy thing to do, is it?
06:57Here we go, son.
06:58Here we go.
06:59Hey.
07:03Hey, buddy.
07:05You're hanging out with Dad today, are you?
07:07Yep.
07:08Yep.
07:08Hey, mate, can you do me a favor?
07:10Can you take a photo of us, please?
07:13Yeah, sure.
07:14Well, you haven't got enough photos already.
07:16I can never have too much.
07:18All right.
07:19Just over here, son.
07:21Here you go.
07:21Big smile.
07:22Three, two, one.
07:24Cheese.
07:25One more.
07:28Here you go.
07:30Well, he looks handsome.
07:32You still don't.
07:36You all good?
07:37Yeah, I'm good.
07:39Hey.
07:40Hey.
07:41Can I have a look?
07:43Oh.
07:49Can you send me that?
07:51Yeah.
07:51Yeah, I can.
07:54Are you ready for me to take him?
07:58Hey.
08:05Maybe I could bring him over tomorrow.
08:08Yeah, maybe.
08:11Harper, I don't blame you for any of this, okay?
08:14I want you to know about it.
08:16It was Kerry's fault.
08:18Not yours.
08:19Tana, I'd like to fight it.
08:22Just take care of our boy, yeah?
08:25That's all that matters, Dad.
08:29I know.
08:30I will.
08:31I will.
08:34See you both soon, yeah?
08:37Yeah.
08:39Yeah.
08:55I can't mind to get you with a hungry heart.
09:00A heart that's been hurt before.
09:03Yeah?
09:06Nah.
09:08Sounds like I better get a bed ready, then.
09:10What?
09:11I can stuff.
09:12You'll owe me more than one.
09:14All right.
09:14I gotta go to bed.
09:17Where's the case?
09:18Shower.
09:20Who was that?
09:22Dean.
09:24Sounds like our houseguest has everything sorted it is, then.
09:28It's not too late to change your mind.
09:32I'm just saying, this isn't like the old days.
09:35Yep, we're your family now.
09:37This is where your loyalty should be.
09:39Not with some stranger.
09:41We don't even know what he's caught up in, do we?
09:47Dean wouldn't send trouble our way.
09:49What if I vet this bloke somewhere else, and there's anything off about him, I just won't
09:55bring him home.
09:57I still don't like it.
09:59Oh, what have I ever let you down?
10:02Don't answer that.
10:08Okay, fine.
10:12But you be sure, Brax.
10:14I promise you, if there's anything I don't like about him, anything at all, I'll send
10:20him packing.
10:22Then it's now I'm done.
10:38Yeah, Cash, hey, give me a sec.
10:39Yeah.
10:46Hey, hey, what are you doing there?
10:48Please tell me something's changed.
10:50Oh, man, I wish something had changed.
10:53I just saw Joe down at the station, thought I might come see how you're holding up.
10:56Oh, you know, just living the life of a drug baron, you know?
11:00Not too soon.
11:01Look, the reason I came around, though, was to say that I'm sorry that I couldn't push
11:05your court date.
11:06Oh, mate, look, I know you tried, so don't beat yourself up.
11:13Anyway, I'd better get a move on.
11:15Yeah.
11:16Yeah.
11:17What are you doing later?
11:18You want me to come around and smash some beers?
11:19Oh, look, I'd love to, but I'm picking up Archie soon, so.
11:23Yes, yes, yes, of course, of course.
11:25Spend time with your son.
11:27I'll catch you around.
11:28Yeah, yeah.
11:29Yeah.
11:29Hey, Cash.
11:30Yeah.
11:31Um, thanks for having my back.
11:37Always.
11:59Hey.
12:03Hey.
12:07I've been worried about you.
12:11What are you doing here?
12:14Turned you there at the motel?
12:22Something happened with Holden, didn't it?
12:28No.
12:30No.
12:30That's it.
12:31I'm going to sort the bloke out.
12:32Molly.
12:34Please.
12:36Did he hurt you?
12:40I tried to, but I...
12:45I stopped him.
12:48Okay.
12:51Where is he now?
12:56He's dead.
13:01I didn't have...
13:03I didn't have...
13:04I didn't have...
13:06A choice.
13:20Let's go.
13:36Yeah, coming.
13:40You in town, eh?
13:41Yeah, and you are?
13:42Money in business.
13:44You must have friends in high places.
13:46Or some very low ones.
13:48Someone's gone into a lot of effort to help you out.
13:51Your new identity.
13:55Jonathan Mitchell.
13:56It's not as good as a passport, but it'll get you interstate.
13:58Here's your ticket out.
13:59Your flight leaves tonight.
14:01And here is the burner we talked about for emergencies only.
14:06And yours over.
14:16Once you've landed, you'll be sent instructions for pick-up.
14:19Got it.
14:20Now, get this jewellery off you.
14:23Once we break this thing, it's not going back on.
14:26You get me?
14:29When's your next bail check-in?
14:31Two days.
14:31We plug this baby in so it doesn't alarm.
14:34We do this, right?
14:35You'll have a two-day head start and the cops will see if you're sitting pretty at home watching TV.
14:47You did well today.
14:51I wasn't sure that I'd actually get bail.
14:54Of course you did.
14:55None of this is your fault.
15:00Has somebody told Horton's parents?
15:03Do they know what happened?
15:05Yeah.
15:06But you don't need to worry about that.
15:10Will they be at the trial?
15:12We don't even know if there's going to be a trial.
15:16Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
15:23Hey, Mac.
15:24I can't really talk at the moment.
15:26No, it's me.
15:27My phone's flat.
15:29Oh.
15:30Hey.
15:34So, will you be coming back here tonight?
15:36Honestly, no.
15:38I think Lacey needs me.
15:40Yeah, yeah, of course.
15:41Of course.
15:41It's all good.
15:43It'd be weird, though.
15:45Not staying with you tonight.
15:50You okay?
15:52Yeah.
15:53Yeah, I'm fine.
15:55You look after your sister, yeah?
15:58I'll, uh...
15:59I'll see you tomorrow.
16:01Yeah, tomorrow.
16:05Stay safe, Joe.
16:17I wasn't prepared for the fall.
16:21Thanks for that.
16:23It's okay.
16:24What'd you tell her?
16:26Nothing.
16:27What could I tell her?
16:28You okay?
16:29Yes.
16:32For the best.
16:36Well, I, um...
16:38I guess it's my turn to say goodbye.
16:45You know how hard this is, right?
16:48Yeah.
16:53You're going to have a great life.
16:55Now, Lever's a good man, and...
16:58I know you'll be happy, whatever happens.
17:03Well...
17:03Something's actually happening right now.
17:07Yeah.
17:08Yeah.
17:09I mean, I'm not allowed to tell anyone, but I figure you can't blab, so...
17:13No.
17:14I don't know.
17:15Ah.
17:17You're going to be the best, Mum.
17:18You know that?
17:19I just wish I was here to see that.
17:22Me too.
17:24I'm going to miss you.
17:27I'm going to miss you, too.
17:32Dana.
17:42Tana?
17:44You here?
17:47I tried calling.
17:49I brought someone to see you.
18:05I'm going to miss you.
18:39Great.
18:49Hey.
18:50Hi.
18:50I need to talk to you.
18:52Oh.
18:53Tana's gone.
18:55Gone?
18:55Gone? Gone where?
18:57Gone, as in he's disappeared.
18:59Wait, what?
19:00I went to his house and he wasn't there, but the ankle monitor was.
19:03He's removed it.
19:05Have you tried calling him?
19:06There's no point. He destroyed his phone.
19:09Right.
19:10He's just made things so much worse.
19:12What's going to happen when the police find out he's done a runner?
19:14Does anyone else know?
19:15I don't think so.
19:17Good.
19:18What should we do? Should we tell Cash?
19:19No, no, no, no. I think it's best if we stay quiet.
19:22Yeah, but what happens when the police...
19:23Papa, listen to me.
19:26If you're right, then shouldn't you give Tana as much of a head start as possible?
20:21You guys, mate.
20:22Yeah.
20:23Tiny poditor.
20:27Right, well, thank you for this.
20:30You got nothing to thank me for yet?
20:33What do you mean?
20:34I haven't done anything for you yet.
20:37And unless you give me a very good reason, I don't see why I should.
20:42You're kidding, right?
20:43Nah.
20:45Nah, I'll give you five minutes.
20:48You gotta talk fast, why should I stick my neck out?
20:50Look, I'll be here.
20:55Clock's ticking.
21:06Where are we going?
21:08You asked too many questions.
21:09Did Tony say anything to you at all?
21:12No, that's why I asked you to meet me here, to help me look for anything that might tell us
21:16where he's gone or how to contact you.
21:18Welcome, I guess.
21:20Thanks.
21:20It's, uh, Jono.
21:22Don't bother with the fake name out here, mate.
21:24You're in here.
21:25We'll feed you, otherwise you're invisible.
21:27You got it?
21:28Yeah, got it.
21:29I hope you know what you're doing.
21:30Yeah, me too.
21:31You're in here.
21:32You're in here.
