00:05Attention passengers, the two-week ferry is now ready for boarding.
00:09Please have your tickets ready for collection.
00:13Here's your memory foam pillow.
00:14Thanks, Aunty.
00:15Did you pack your snacks, your switch?
00:17Did you pack your pyjamas, your toothbrush?
00:19Did she grab her toothbrush?
00:20Yes.
00:21I've got everything, Aunty. Chill.
00:22Okay, I'm sorry.
00:24You're going to have the most wonderful Christmas with Dad, yeah?
00:26Could you send my letter to Santa for me, please?
00:28Of course.
00:30Now, the Tiwi ferry staff are...
00:32I'm going to look after me the whole entire trip. I know.
00:34Good girl.
00:35Don't worry. We'll keep an eye on there.
00:37Are you ready?
00:39Bye, bub.
00:40Say hi to your dad for us, eh?
00:41Yeah, I will.
00:42We'll miss you.
00:44I'll miss you, too.
00:45Love you.
00:46Have a lovely Christmas, darling.
00:48Love you.
00:49Love you, too.
00:50You'll have fun.
00:51Call us soon as you get there.
00:55Well, there's no need to analyse
00:58Is a kind of emotion
01:02Cause it comes naturally to me
01:05A simple case of feeling
01:09Love and devotion
01:12So tell me tenderly
01:16I wanna give my life to you
01:21I wanna feel my blood run through you
01:25You and oh, I wanna touch you
01:31Over and over and over again
01:35We've got two strong hearts
01:38We stick together like the honey and the bee
01:42You and me
01:45We've got two strong hearts
01:48Reaching out forever like a river to the sea
01:52Running free
01:59Like a river to the sea
02:03Running free
02:09Angel or star
02:11I'm more of a star man myself
02:14Do the honours
02:18Carol's started
02:20This is a nice surprise
02:21You're back
02:23Yeah, just dropping off
02:25Taya's gift for when she gets home
02:26But you
02:27Going to Adelaide, yeah
02:28Well, that's where my family are
02:31So I figured I'd spend Christmas with my mum
02:35Anyway, I should get to the airport
02:38Don't make Christmas any worse than it is
02:40Me?
02:41You sent Taya to an island
02:43With a man she hardly knows
02:44For Christmas
02:45Bub's with family
02:47Jared's family
02:48There is absolutely nothing to worry about
02:50Oi, peek-off
02:51Cyclone Nancy, originally thought to Miss Landfill
02:54Is due to hit Darwin tonight
02:57Residents are being advised to take cover
02:59And prepare their homes
03:00For what has been classed as a Category 2 storm
03:03By the Bureau of Meteorology
03:04Stay tuned for updates
03:06As Cyclone Nancy
03:07Looks like you're not going anywhere, Netta
03:08Net, if your plane isn't going
03:14Then neither is the ferry
03:15Forget it
03:15Who sends their kids to a remote island
03:17During the wet season?
03:17Um, pretty much anyone who lives on a remote island
03:20What's he doing to prepare?
03:21To protect Bub?
03:22Has Jared even responded yet?
03:24No, but at this point
03:25It's a Category 2
03:26This isn't Twister
03:27There aren't going to be cows
03:28Spinning past the bloody window
03:30Back in there, my hatches
03:31What are you doing?
03:33Preparing for the Twister
03:34I'm trying the ferry again
03:36Ah, stop it, Trevor
03:37Not helping, Dad
03:38Poor boy's nerves are shot to shit already
03:47You reckon the peacocks will sort themselves out?
03:49I don't know
03:51She's parked under that tree like a man who wants a quick getaway
03:54Yeah, here she is
03:55Good old emergency kit
03:57Ah, nice one
03:58Sure's good
03:59You mum would be shitting yourselves in the dark if I wasn't prepared
04:02I'll be sure to find you when the apocalypse comes
04:05You think I'd let you slow me down?
04:07Me?
04:07Slow you down?
04:08I'll be the one who's carrying you
04:10Lift with your legs, old man
04:11Yeah, we're lifting your legs, young lady
04:15What you got in there?
04:16Dead body?
04:17Be your dead body if you keep winking
04:25Look out, emergency kit coming through
04:29It's been a while since my days in the SES
04:31Oh, jeez
04:33You alright?
04:34Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
04:35Here, come on
04:37Oh, sis
04:39Don't kiss your crush
04:41Kiss their best friend first
04:42That is terrible advice
04:44I don't buy that crap
04:45Look at your wife
04:47Oh, yeah, well
04:47You won't be looking so smug
04:49When a tree falls on my retirement plan, will you?
04:51Eh?
04:52What, you forgotten already?
04:54Me truck?
04:55Come on, let's go
04:56Oh
04:57Cyclone season
04:57You don't park under trees
04:58I don't know what he's going on about his truck
05:00What you got there, Dordie?
05:05Oh
05:06We're two girls
05:10Come on then
05:11I've got plenty to do
05:15Things any better with Dordie?
05:18Are you trying apologising?
05:20Apologise for what?
05:21Oh, well, I don't know
05:22Being a sook
05:23Chef
05:24Come on
05:25Jared's her dad
05:26He gives Taya another link to Tiwi
05:27She's going to be
05:28Plugged into culture
05:30In a way that
05:30Lauren never could be
05:32Lauren didn't keep it a secret
05:34Because of that
05:34You know that
05:35Lauren didn't think things through
05:36So what?
05:37She never does
05:38But look what it's given Taya
05:41She on Tiwi now
05:42With a Tiwi dad
05:44And what a
05:45What a gift
05:46For a mum to give a daughter
05:48What a Christmas present, eh?
05:51Can't you see?
05:52This is Lauren becoming a mum
05:55Nice to have Netto back
05:57All it took was a bloody cyclone
06:00Cyclone Lauren
06:01He bought a ticket to Adelaide, mum
06:03Ah, he's gammon
06:04If he wanted to go back to his mummy
06:06He would have done it already
06:08Yeah
06:09We'll see
06:14I feel like I put
06:18This place
06:18This family
06:20This mess that we're in
06:22He just wants to know
06:23That you're shooting for the same target
06:25That's all
06:27Ah, you're a woman
06:28Multi-task
06:29Move that while you absorb
06:31My profound wisdom
06:32Righto, Gandhi
06:34Lift with your legs
06:39Love what you've done with the truck
06:40Thank you
06:41It's a lot of kitchen
06:43Yeah, that's the idea
06:45It's, uh
06:46It's all kitchen
06:48No, we had a deal
06:49What do you mean?
06:50I mean
06:50A little less Maggie Beer
06:52A little more David Crockett
06:54Who?
06:54Are you sure you've got a timeline
06:55To convert my truck back into a camper?
06:57Look, I don't know, Trev
06:59I'm a bit too worried about Bub
07:00To be thinking about work right now
07:01It'll happen when it happens, alright?
07:03Hey, Ned
07:03Give us a hand
07:04We'll talk about it later
07:05Okay?
07:09You alright?
07:10Yeah, your dad's just being a bit
07:12I don't know
07:13Yeah, he gets a bit weird at Christmas
07:15Sorry
07:16The Cyclone Shelter's a bit of a mess
07:31I've got something I need to say
07:33You first
07:33No, no
07:34I should totally hear you out first
07:43It's not addressed to me
07:44I don't read other people's mail
07:45Just read it
07:55Dear Santa
07:58If I've been good
07:59Please can I have my Uncle Ned home?
08:02Animal crossing
08:03And
08:04Nail polish with sparkles
08:07If I've been naughty
08:08Uncle Ned will be enough
08:11From Bub
08:16You were right
08:18I went looking for Bub's dad
08:19Because I thought it would get us out of responsibility
08:22So we could run back to Adelaide
08:23But when I found out he was a TV man
08:25I knew that was more important than anything we wanted
08:32I know I should have told you
08:35But it was an opportunity to give Bub the childhood that Mum couldn't give me
08:40I can't tell you how many times I'd dreamt of being on Mum's country
08:44I'm so sorry
08:46I thought that she just needed you and Daffy
08:49But I don't know
08:51I know I've still got a lot to learn
08:53And I get that being on country is a gift for Taya
08:58I'm just getting my head around the way decisions are made in this family
09:00And Jared makes me a bit jealous
09:03Or threatened you know
09:05And he'll give her things that I never can
09:08You give her other things
09:11You make her laugh
09:12You make her feel safe
09:14You make her feel seen
09:17I want us to be a part of the Tiwi community too
09:21With Bub
09:23Yeah, me too
09:26Does that mean we're shooting for the same target?
09:34Can we text Jared?
09:36My head's going to be in a spin until I hear from Bub
09:39On it
09:52Now the idea he's going to turn it back into a camper is a joke
09:55Have you seen it?
09:56Where's the bid going to go?
09:58Yeah, yeah, but don't bring it up now
09:59We only just got Mullaga back
10:01So you've got a reply?
10:03Jared said she's safe
10:05We're all good for now
10:06For now?
10:06For now, what's that mean?
10:08It means she's safe
10:08Yeah, but only for now
10:09Call him, call him
10:11Mayday, mayday
10:12Mariner capsized by Sandwood
10:14Tiwi residents have been told
10:16To bunker down and head to the nearest shelter
10:18Cyclone Nancy has been upgraded to a Category 4
10:21Cat 4? That's a biggie
10:23They're only being speculative
10:24Urging voters not to risk their lives or vessels
10:26And avoid waterways
10:28Okay, we need to go on the ferry
10:29Didn't you hear the man?
10:30Alright, well, let's charter a plane
10:32Or do something
10:33We need to help Bub
10:34Babe, this isn't Jared's first cyclone
10:37We have to trust him
10:38Trust him after that text
10:39You're all hungry and it's making you a bit mad
10:41What are we doing here? Nothing
10:43We need to, we need to call someone, anybody
10:45Dad! Dad!
10:46We need a feed and I'm making stew
10:48Stew?
10:49You haven't made that since the Ice Age
10:51Yeah, hence all the banging Einstein
10:52Mum, how long has it been in that freezer?
10:54Nearly had a heart attack
10:55Well, but you
10:56My check is a time bomb
10:57Yeah, my doctor told me
10:58If I eat another cheese, bacon pie
11:00I'll be toast
11:03Oh, God
11:03Yeah
11:05Phone's dead
11:06No power
11:07Right, okay
11:08I never imagined that
11:09I'd die in a cyclone
11:10That's just it
11:11You're not going to die, babe
11:12Breathe
11:13Well, you might die
11:14But that's the fun part
11:15Ah!
11:17Alright, nothing left to do
11:18But get hammered in the dark
11:19Until the storm passes
11:20Old family tradition
11:21You don't have to get hammered
11:23Ah
11:24Went in Darwin
11:26Oh, we'll make a Darwin lad out of him yet
11:29Oh
11:31Merry bloody Christmas
11:33Yeah
11:33Up your bum
11:34Up your bum
11:36Oh, nice
11:36Isn't that French?
11:38It is, it's French
11:39It's lovely
11:40Je te d'or d'affy
11:42So go, yeah
11:43Je te d'or d'affy
11:51Well, go on then
11:52Eat up
11:53Those leftovers
11:54Aren't going to eat themselves
11:55They do look like
11:56They've taken on a life of their own
11:57Yeah
11:58Bit like my truck
11:59Trevor, I told you not to bring this up
12:01No, no, no
12:01Just saying
12:02We know what you're saying
12:03I don't know what he's going to say
12:04Let the man talk
12:05Be careful what you wish for
12:06I'm just saying
12:07Where's me bloody 10%?
12:09Any entrepreneur will tell you
12:10Sure as hell doesn't look like a camper now
12:12Does he?
12:12Look, I'm there worrying about Bub
12:14He's worried about his bloody truck
12:15I'm worried about our retirement plan
12:17Dad, the deal was 10% of profit
12:20He hasn't made any profit
12:21Ah, there you go
12:21No profit
12:22So sure as shit not going to turn it back into a camper
12:24Is he?
12:25You seen it out there?
12:25Trev
12:26You hustled us
12:27I didn't hustle
12:27It takes a little bit of time to do it
12:29No side of the bargain
12:30Enough
12:31When I said I wanted to go travelling
12:33I meant Paris
12:35Not to tenant greet in a rusty shitbox
12:39Who cares if he's ruined the camper?
12:42After everything Neto has given to this family
12:44It's the least we can do for him
12:49Thank you, Daphne
12:50Don't call me Daphne
12:51And eat your dinner
12:52You're too skinny
13:02You're too skinny
13:03I'm sorry, I can't do it
13:04No, I swore the chef's oath never to eat salmonella
13:06You're right
13:07He hustled us
13:08I want that 10%
13:10Excuse me
13:11Lauren
13:15Right, Mrs Eiffel Tower
13:22You want me to go out to the cyclone and get you some frog's legs?
13:24Well, go on then
13:25Bushtucker man
13:27Oh, and for the record
13:28It wasn't Tennant Creek
13:30It was Kununara
13:31Oh, Kununara
13:34The regional town of romance
13:43That came out of nowhere
13:44Well, I wouldn't say nowhere
13:45It came out of stew
13:46I was just trying to make mum feel better
13:54You all right?
14:03Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
14:04It's better out than in, isn't it?
14:08Well, I just got everything out
14:10So you might as well, too
14:13What is it?
14:16Okay
14:17I know we made a promise to each other
14:20And I know I'm legally bound to that promise
14:21Because of our prenup
14:22But I actually really
14:25I love being a dad
14:27I began to believe it was something I didn't want
14:29Because it was something you didn't want
14:30And then
14:32Taya came into our lives
14:34And, uh
14:36Yeah
14:38Maybe
14:45It's a lot of maybes
15:00You can feel however you want to feel
15:01But I can't keep pretending that the feet
15:05I want kids
15:08But I do want kids, you know
15:13I love you so much
15:15That I'm not even going to kiss you
15:16With my gross form of breath
15:17That's the most romantic thing
15:19Anyone's ever said to me
15:20No, it's not
15:21But you do need to brush your teeth
15:23Okay
15:24There it is
15:25There is a
15:43There's a run-down bar
15:46Across the railroad tracks
15:48I've got a table for two
15:50Away in the back
15:53Where I sit alone
15:57And think of losing you
16:02I spend most every night
16:05Beneath the lies of a neon moon
16:10Now if you lose your one and only
16:16There's always room here for the lonely
16:20To wash your broken dreams
16:24Dancing out of the bins
16:30Hey
16:30Right, so Tiwi phones are still down
16:32But Leroy reckons the barge is taking over supplies
16:35Supplies?
16:36But
16:36The shops are flooded, Dad
16:37They've got no food
16:38We can feed people
16:39With what?
16:41Your retirement
16:41And, uh, you know
16:49Watching it all pass me by
16:53I had a rock against the tide
16:56It comes in and it goes out again
17:02And we're looking out into the water
17:07Tell me all the things that are on your mind
17:10And I will say everything will be alright
17:15Looking out into the fire
17:19I'll tell you all the things that are on my mind
17:23And I will say everything will be alright
17:26I'll tell you all the things that are on my mind
17:31I'll tell you all the things that are on my mind
17:58And I will say everything will be alright
18:11I'll tell you all the things that are on my mind
18:14And I will say everything will be alright
18:24You're different to when we were here last time, eh?
18:27Yeah
18:32Awana
18:32Awana
18:34Awana
18:47Awana
18:56She's not here
18:58Okay
18:58Um, she'll be okay
19:00She has to be
19:01We'll do another drive around
19:02It's alright
19:04Oi
19:04That's my sarong
19:11Are you okay?
19:12Are you hurt?
19:13Are you bleeding?
19:14No, I'm not bleeding
19:15He was a little bit scary though
19:16My dad kept telling us funny
19:20Have I got a story for you?
19:22Don't you made up with Uncle Ned?
19:24Yeah, come on
19:25I missed you
19:27I missed you too
19:29Sissy's mother, dad's here too
19:30Hey, have a bed
19:32See, I told you she'd be fine
19:35I knew she'd be fine
19:36Well, come on then
19:37Let's make this angry before people get hangry

20:08Uncle, can I come back to Darwin with you and auntie?
20:16I would love that
20:17It was fun sleeping over at dad's
20:19But my sisters kept wanting to borrow my Switch
20:21And I wouldn't only pay with their make-up
20:23So
20:23Where's my Christmas present?
20:25Did you bring it?
20:25Where is it?
20:26Oh, we might have something in the back of the house

20:47Copy that
