Transcript
00:01You know we belong together, you and I forever and ever
00:09No matter where you are, you're my guiding star
00:18And from the very first moment I saw you, I never felt such emotion
00:27I'm walking on it, just to know, you were there
00:37Hold me in your arms, don't let me go
00:42I want to stay forever, close to each day
00:48Home and away
00:54Tana's gone missing you
00:56It's used to me
00:57Did you help him?
00:58How do you think I would do that?
00:59I mean, I run a restaurant, I can't make people disappear
01:01You know someone who could
01:02If I checked your phone, would I see some recent calls to your brother?
01:05Yeah, I'd really hope so, I call him all the time
01:07He's not a runner
01:08He's not stupid enough to do that
01:09He is stupid enough to do that, I could throw it away
01:15What's he doing, Abby?
01:17Just walking
01:18Well, he's been here five minutes, sorry he's not sticking to the rules
01:20Maybe the rules need rethinking
01:23Talk to him
01:24You two have a lot in common
01:26Are you sure you're okay with me being here?
01:28Rick thinks I should give you a break
01:31Don't make me regret listening to him
01:32We have to find out where he is
01:34We need to speak to Mac Chester to know something
01:36I've already tried talking to Mac about it, I got nowhere
01:38What are you doing here, Jo?
01:39We're just talking
01:40Well, maybe you could shed some light on this
01:42When were you going to tell me that your mate had skipped bail?
01:46I want you to have the honours of issuing his arrest warrant
01:49Oh, and can you please make it nationwide?
01:52Because I want everyone in this country looking for him
02:00You know, I can't believe we're at 12 weeks already
02:03No, I can
02:04This time tomorrow we finally get to see our baby
02:07Oh my god, me neither
02:09I just hope everything's okay
02:11Everything's going to be fine
02:12Mac, I really need to talk to you
02:15It's about Tanya, I know what's happened
02:16Yeah, um, of course, let's talk
02:18Hey, you need to get to the hospital, don't you?
02:20Are you sure?
02:21Yeah, yeah, um, let me know how Remy is
02:23Okay
02:23Okay
02:23Call me if you need anything
02:25I will
02:28I know, it must be a shock Tanya taking off like this
02:30Yeah, when I spoke to Cash
02:32He thinks you had something to do with it
02:34Yeah, he's made that pretty clear
02:36Tell me where he is, that's all I want to know
02:49Amazing spot
02:51Wouldn't even know it was here
02:53See how we like it
02:56How do you ever go fishing?
02:58Ah, not here
02:59A couple of spots we like together in the right case
03:02Yeah, but Dad never catches anything
03:05Oh, jeez, fucker
03:07And our boys' age
03:08They're meant to give their dads a hard time
03:11I know my brothers and I
03:12We certainly did
03:17How many you got?
03:19Ah, I'm the youngest of three
03:23They be missing you or what?
03:26Actually, I miss them
03:29The last one standing
03:31Sorry to hear that
03:36Hey, Dad
03:36Yeah
03:37Check out this photo I took
03:39Hey, how about we wait till we go home
03:41And then we'll print it off
03:42And we'll show him then
03:43Yeah, okay
03:45Hey, is that another rock wallaby mum?
03:54Yeah, I got it, I got it
03:56He's named after my youngest brother
04:00But we lost him before Casey was born
04:03I'm sorry for your loss
04:07You said youngest brother
04:08So you have others?
04:10Two
04:11Must have been hard leaving them behind
04:13Old enough to look after themselves
04:16Still?
04:18Oh, yeah
04:20Wasn't easy
04:21There are plenty of ways to keep yourself distracted out here
04:24Oh, yeah, like what?
04:26Oh, I don't know, mate
04:27The gorge
04:32That's not good enough for you
04:34Could always put you to work
04:41I know Tano's scared me
04:43But we felt like he didn't have a choice
04:44It's only going to make things worse for him
04:46Keep your voice down
04:47What I need is to find him
04:49I already told you
04:51You're talking to the wrong person
04:52Then why does Cash think your brother helped him?
04:54Oh, it's just ridiculous
04:55My brother lives in Queensland, okay?
04:57He hasn't been to Summer Bay in years
04:58Yeah, but he is a river boy, right?
05:00I don't know what to tell you
05:01Jane doesn't have anything to do with it
05:03It is not his life anymore
05:14Hey
05:15Doctor
05:22Nice night
05:24It's fairly uneventful, actually
05:26Good
05:26That's the way we want it
05:30Sonny wants to know when he can visit
05:32How long do you think it'll be before he wakes up?
05:36Remi's obs are looking good, so
05:37Hopefully it's not too long
05:39Thank you again for being there with him
05:42Even though I know he got a kick out of it, too
05:43How often do you get to see brain surgery?
05:46Let alone when the patient's awake
05:48You're seriously weird, you know that, right?
05:51Anyway
05:52You're the one who deserves the thanks
05:54Yeah, I just sat around while you guys saved his life
05:56You're the one who pushed him to get the treatment in the first place
06:00Brother isn't he's here
06:04It's done, Sarge
06:05The arrest warrant's been issued
06:07You should have told me the second you knew Tony was missing
06:10Yes, I thought that you were too busy with Lacey
06:12How dare you use my daughter as an excuse
06:15You hid the fact that he missed his bail check-in
06:18And that he had removed his ankle monitor
06:20And now we've missed an important window to find him
06:23Now I've been on the phone to the Federal Police
06:25Trying to get a warrant
06:27To look at the CCTV from all the airports
06:30Now that is going to take more time and resources
06:33Yes, and I understand that, Sarge
06:34I am sorry
06:35Are you?
06:36Yes
06:36Well, maybe you helped him
06:37Oh, come on, Sarge
06:39Maybe I should be looking into your whereabouts for the last few days
06:42You know, if I knew what he was planning
06:43I would have tried to stop him
06:44Dad
06:47Any word on Tony?
06:49No
06:50I'm glad you're here because you saved me a phone call
06:52I've got some questions for you
06:54Questions?
06:55Dad, I don't know anything
06:56You spend so much time with the guy
06:57You've got to know something
06:58I don't
06:59Even so, we're going through this
07:01Get her set up
07:07What are you doing here?
07:08I spoke to Mac
07:10What did she say?
07:11Nothing
07:14Yeah
07:31Hang on, mate
07:39I hope you bought something cold
07:41You're out of luck
07:42In more ways than one
07:48What is it?
07:49They've put a warrant out for your arrest
07:50What are you doing looking at police websites?
07:53Staying ahead of the game
07:54It's all over social media too
07:57Oh, great
07:58Um, okay, so what do we do?
08:00Well, it doesn't change anything
08:02What, you're not worried?
08:04You flew in on a false name
08:05You were hours from where you landed
08:07Why would anyone come looking for you out here?
08:09What about your workers?
08:10Can you trust them?
08:10What do you think, I'd hire snitches?
08:12I don't know
08:12They might talk them out
08:13They won't
08:32Hey, buddy
08:36Hey
08:38You're back
08:40How you feeling?
08:43It's okay
08:44It's okay, it's okay
08:45Just take your time
08:47I'm good
08:51Yeah
08:52Plan my
08:56Thing
09:00Strings
09:00You mean your guitar?
09:04Graham
09:04You okay?
09:15He must have discussed his options with you at some point
09:18If you're asking me if he'd given up hope on his court case, then yes
09:23But I told him to fight
09:24So you have no idea where he is?
09:26Do you think I'd be sitting here if I did?
09:29All right
09:30But he had help from someone
09:34When was the last time you spoke to him?
09:38Two nights ago
09:39He called me
09:40When we were having dinner with Lacey
09:42What did he say?
09:46Said to stay safe and go after my sister
09:52He was saying goodbye, wasn't he?
09:57Where was he when he called?
09:59I don't know at home
10:00Was anyone with him?
10:07Look
10:07I've told you
10:08I don't know anything
10:09So can I just go?
10:11All right
10:11But if you remember anything
10:14You tell me
10:16Okay
10:24Any sightings of Parata?
10:26No
10:26No, not yet
10:27But his warrant should be all over the police social media by now
10:29And I've requested that it be sent to the news outlets as well
10:32Good to see you're not dragging your feet anymore
10:34Yes, Sarge
10:35I'm actually saying to you about this as you are
10:36I posted Tarno's bail
10:38And I stuck my neck out for him
10:39And he's taken off on me
10:40So I am going to find him
10:42And I am going to make him sorry when I do
10:46The nurse said Dr. Swan's been contacted
10:49Levi texted
10:49He's on his way
10:50A million worried messages from Sonny
10:54He's getting annoyed
10:54How?
10:56How long?
10:59The eyes closed
11:00You've been asleep since last night when the surgery finished
11:03Levi said it went really well
11:05Why?
11:06In the words
11:08It's okay
11:09It's on this
11:10The head cut
11:12They took
11:13The thing
11:13They cut
11:14Let's just see what the doctors have to say, okay?
11:17Hey
11:18Eden said you're awake
11:19Something's wrong
11:20He keeps losing his words
11:21He couldn't even remember the word for guitar
11:23It was meant to
11:24To
11:25To better
11:25To fix
11:27It's alright
11:27It's alright
11:28Take it easy
11:28Okay
11:29It's not you
11:30We'll do some simple neurological tests
11:33And we'll go from there
11:35Yeah
11:39Are you sure that he's safe
11:41Where he is?
11:43No
11:44No, no, Dean
11:44I just wanted to make sure he was okay
11:47Yeah, alright
11:48Love you too
11:50Bye
11:52Hi
11:54Do I sneak up on people?
11:55Tane called me from your phone
11:57What?
11:58The last time we spoke
12:00Tane called me
12:01From your mobile
12:02Okay, Jo
12:02I'm working
12:03The night he disappeared
12:04Just give me a straight answer
12:05I don't know what you're talking about
12:07What do you expect me to do?
12:08Just let him disappear
12:09I don't have an answer for you, Jo
12:10Okay?
12:11I don't
12:13After what we've been through together
12:16He's everything to me
12:19Please
12:19I love him
12:24I know things aren't ideal
12:26But
12:26As far as mug shots go
12:29It's not a bad photo, eh?
12:30It's better than mine
12:32How about you just stick to
12:34Mending fences
12:35And leave the comedy
12:35For someone who's funny
12:40I'll finish this in a sec
12:42Hang on
12:43Oi
12:44Hey
12:46What's going on?
12:47You cannot be surprised
12:48They're out looking for him
12:49I'm not
12:50I just hoped it would take
12:51A little bit longer
12:51For our house guests
12:52To end up all over social media
12:54Things move fast
12:55You cannot be this calm
12:57Wax
12:58When someone goes missing these days
12:59Everyone on the internet
13:01Wants to solve him
13:01Let him look
13:02No one has any idea where he is
13:05I just have a bad feeling
13:07Well
13:08You have to relax
13:09Right, cops
13:11Aren't going to find him
13:15Hey, excuse me
13:16Um
13:18I'm sorry about all this
13:20You know
13:20I didn't mean to be in trouble
13:22You don't have to say you're sorry
13:25We knew what we were in for
13:43What you said about
13:44Being in love with Tane
13:47Did you really mean that?
13:50Tane's it for me
13:53All I can tell you is that he is safe
13:55Please, I just want to know where he is
14:00Wow
14:00You don't trust me?
14:01No, no
14:02I didn't say that
14:03What do you think I'm going to do?
14:04Go run to my dad and turn him in?
14:06I promised him
14:07I can't tell you
14:10What if it was Levi?
14:13It's not
14:14But what if it was?
14:17Could you honestly just
14:20Let him go?
14:21Let him go
14:26Okay, say I knew something
14:28And I'm not saying that I do
14:32What would you even do with that information?
14:35I'd go to him
14:37You understand what that means, right?
14:40You would have to leave
14:41And never come back
14:42Yeah, I know
14:45Leave everyone you know behind
14:48For good
14:50I know
15:00Look at me
15:08Squeeze my hands
15:09Push away
15:15That's it
15:17Push away
15:21As far as neuro exams go
15:22Can't get much better
15:24Cognitive function, motor skills
15:26And sensory response
15:27Are all looking good
15:28Then why can I
15:31Look, this isn't my area of expertise
15:33But I'm hoping it's because
15:34Of some swelling from the surgery
15:36How long?
15:38I'm not sure
15:38It'll be until the swelling goes down
15:41I'll organise some scans
15:43To make sure that
15:43There's no bleeding
15:44Bleeding?
15:45Are you serious?
15:46It's precautionary
15:48Dr. Swan's on her way in
15:49To check on you
15:50Just try not to worry
15:53I wouldn't be calling
15:54If I didn't trust her
15:58I promise
15:59None of this will come back to you
16:00Okay?
16:03Okay
16:05Yeah, bye
16:09Okay, you cannot
16:10Breathe a word of this to anyone
16:11I won't
16:13There is more at stake here
16:14Than just Tane's life
16:15A lot of people
16:16Have taken risks to helping
16:18I know
16:19No, you don't
16:21The cops
16:22Will be the least of our problems
16:23If the River Boys find out
16:24I told you this
16:27As soon as I know where he is
16:28I'll disappear too
16:31He's in Western Australia
16:33Somewhere near Exmouth
16:34That's all my brother could tell me
16:39Thank you
16:41Good luck
16:45You too
16:48Okay
16:48Hey
16:50Everything alright?
16:51Yeah
16:51Fine
16:51Yeah?
16:55Mac?
16:55Yeah
16:57Does Joan know something I should know?
16:59Uh, I don't know
17:00Maybe you should ask her
17:01So you expect me to believe
17:02That that was just a normal interaction?
17:03Cash, you can believe what you like
17:14You think he's okay?
17:16I think today was a bit of a reality check
17:18But he'll be alright
17:19What are you talking about?
17:21Hey, I'm just about how nosy you've got
17:24Just Paul said it's good to ask questions
17:25It's how you learn
17:26And she's right
17:28Mostly
17:28Yeah, actually
17:29Your teacher gets paid to answer questions
17:31Dad doesn't
17:33You can, um
17:35You can have a break if you want
17:36No, no, it's all good
17:37I'd rather keep busy
17:42Casey, give me that
17:42Hi
17:43Casey, give me a camera, mate
17:44Give it here
17:45Just give it to me
17:45Thanks
17:47How do you
17:48Can you delete those, please?
17:49Why?
17:51Okay, yeah, done
17:55Mate
17:55Mate, it's real important
17:58That no one knows
17:59We've got someone staying with us
18:00Alright, that means
18:01You can't tell any inmates at school
18:02You can't tell anyone
18:04Alright?
18:05And you can't take photos
18:07But why?
18:08I don't understand
18:09Well, it says nothing
18:11I can explain to you right now
18:14But I need you
18:16To give me your word
18:18That you won't tell anyone
18:21Because, mate
18:21Look at me
18:22It could
18:22It could just get us
18:24Into a bit of trouble
18:27Okay
18:28I'll, I'll, I'll
18:29What?
18:30Yeah?
18:31Yeah
18:32Yeah
18:33Good man
18:51Newman's questioning
18:52The gym staff now
18:53I'll see you at the station
18:57Joe
18:58Can we talk?
19:00I promise
19:01This isn't another interrogation
19:03I owe you an apology
19:05Hey, I'm listening
19:07I shouldn't have come down
19:08On you so hard
19:10You're just doing your job
19:12Yes
19:13But it's also my job
19:14To make sure you're okay
19:17Are you okay?
19:19Yeah
19:20I'm fine with that
19:22I'm sorry
19:23Tana hurt you like this
19:25You put your trust in it
19:28We both did
19:29I know how hard
19:31This must be for you
19:33Just know that
19:34Lacey and I
19:34Are here for you
19:35Okay?
19:38I love you, Dad
19:41No matter what happens, okay?
19:43I love you too, sweetheart
19:47We'll get through this
19:49See you later on
19:50See ya
19:53It's nice to see you
19:54Making peace with your father
19:54Mind your business, Cash
20:22It's a mad cherry
20:26Yeah, it's amazing
20:27It's good
20:28Cheers
20:28Cheers
20:31Hey, sorry about before, eh?
20:37Like I said, the kid's a bit snap-happy
20:39Takes after his mum
20:42Yeah, nah
20:43Look, it's not fair that he has to lie because of me
20:45Life isn't always fair
20:47You and I probably know that better than most
20:50Yep
20:53You know, I knew coming here would be hard
20:55And, you know, obviously I'd miss my son and everybody else
21:00But now I'm causing problems that I didn't even think about
21:03It's alright
21:05Well, no, it's not
21:07You know, I'm messing with your life
21:08I don't like it
21:10What are you going to do?
21:11Leave?
21:13Eh?
21:14Look like you got another plan
21:16Nah
21:18Guess I'm just realising that it's
21:21A lot harder than I thought it would be
21:43I don't like it
21:54Somewhere
21:55Say you did get on a flight back home
21:56What would you be going back to?
21:58Prison
21:59And didn't you leave because you didn't want your kids seeing that?
22:01Do you ever regret it?
22:02Doing it on the run with them?
22:03It's not the life I thought we'd live
22:06But it's better than one without him
22:11Oi
22:12What do you think you're doing?
22:14I was calling my girlfriend
22:15That can't happen
22:16Hang up
22:16Hang up
22:17You can't stop me from going
22:18Whether you like it or not
22:19I'm going after Tarnit
22:21So we might as well work together
22:22But they're going off
22:22So we might as well work together
22:22So we'll see you back up
