00:01You owe me Phillips. I'm three grand down and I'm not prepared to take an IOU, so you better find
00:06the money and fast.
00:07No! I don't do that anymore, I can't. Look, my son and I...
00:10Cry me a river, Gussie. Yet I'm not waiting anymore.
00:14I had to do a job tonight and it went wrong. Set an alarm off. I think I got out
00:18of there without anybody seeing me.
00:20What the hell are you doing to me?!
00:22Son, look, I had no choice, okay?
00:24Alright, sit on it, alright?
00:28Hey, where are you going?
00:29I can't go back to prison. I'll be a dead man.
00:31Well, you can't go anywhere, alright?
00:32Sorry.
00:33I don't want the bag.
00:36Sir, are you aware that you are speeding...
00:39Kane Phillips.
00:40He's got a firearm.
00:42I can explain that.
00:45Ah, the office robbery.
00:47Kane Phillips, I'm arresting you on suspicion of armed robbery.
00:50You do not have to say anything, but if you do, it will be taken down and may be used
00:54in evidence.
00:56You know we belong together, you and I forever and ever.
01:05No matter where you are, you're my guiding star.
01:13You're my guiding star.
01:14Hold me in your arms.
01:17Don't let me go.
01:19I want to stay forever.
01:23Closer each day.
01:26Home and away.
01:38What is going on? How long do I have to sit here for?
01:41Alright, just calm down, Mr Phillips.
01:42Oh, while you're standing there, you could be out there looking for him.
01:44Alright, Mr Phillips.
01:45Look, I didn't do this.
01:46I don't see what...
01:47Alright, you need to calm down.
01:47Get your hands off me, finally.
01:48Someone who's going to listen to me.
01:50Look, my dad ran off.
01:52I don't know when...
01:52No, look, if you get some guys out there looking for him...
01:55Look, I need to...
01:55Just take a breath and calm down, right?
01:58Now, I want you to tell me what happened.
02:01I didn't do this.
02:02I swear.
02:04Why don't you start with telling me your movements from seven o'clock on?
02:08Go down.
02:09Kane, just answer the question.
02:10No, no.
02:11I'm not saying anything without my solicitor.
02:19Jump on them.
02:22Oh, good day, darling. Welcome back.
02:24Here, let me help you.
02:26Oh, stop.
02:27God save, Ireland, what have you got in here?
02:29Oh, just a couple of months' worth of paperwork, amongst other things.
02:33The joy is of having offices 200 kilometres apart.
02:36I thought that was your car, I heard. How's your drive?
02:39Oh, long and tedious, just like my day.
02:41I was dealing with a client from hell.
02:42The only thing that kept me going was the thought of a long, hot bath
02:46in which I will soak for the next two hours.
02:48Truth, as bad as that, was it?
02:50I must just say, I'm glad it is over.
02:53Oh.
02:55Leave me alone.
02:59Morag Bellingham.
03:02Now, look, slow down. I can't...
03:05Kane!
03:07Just quietly tell me everything that has happened.
03:12Ken!
03:13What the hell is going on?
03:14You're just calm down.
03:15I don't, Flippen, will want to calm down.
03:17Where is he?
03:17It's all right, Senior Constable.
03:19Peter, thank God.
03:20What is going on?
03:21Look, you know damn well that Kane wouldn't have broken into an office,
03:24let alone stole stuff from it.
03:26Look, we're looking at all the possibilities,
03:27trying to piece together what happened.
03:29Detective, could I see my client now, please?
03:32Senior Constable, can you...
03:33Sure.
03:34Mrs. Bellingham?
03:36Well, I want some answers, please!
03:42Hi.
03:43Um, you can leave us alone now, thank you.
03:48Sorry to get you down here, but I didn't know who else to call.
03:51Here, well, let's save the pleasantries till later, shall we?
03:54Kane, I'm not going to waste my time,
03:56and I can't help you unless you are perfectly honest with me,
03:58so you tell me right now.
04:00Did you rob that office?
04:02No.
04:03No, I didn't.
04:03I swear to you.
04:06Fine.
04:07Then I will do everything I can to help you.
04:10Great.
04:11Thanks.
04:11Thanks, it really means a lot.
04:13So, why don't you just start at the beginning, hm?
04:18I don't care about any of that.
04:20This is nonsense.
04:21Please, just calm down.
04:22Kane did not do this, Peter.
04:24Can't you sort it out?
04:25Irene, I need you to settle down.
04:27I'm going to have to ask you to leave.
04:28You what?
04:29Irene.
04:30Look, I haven't even interviewed Kane yet, right?
04:32And I'm not trying to railroad anyone,
04:33but I've got a job to do,
04:34and this needs to be handled like any other case.
04:37Now, you are welcome to take a seat and wait,
04:39but you'll have to be calm and quiet, okay?
04:45Are we all right to go?
04:51And that's it?
04:52That's the last thing you see?
04:53Fine.
04:54Um, could we possibly put an end to this quickly, please?
04:58I mean, from what my client has told me,
05:00the link between the robbery and he is tentative at best.
05:04He was found with the stolen cash, the weapon...
05:06Yeah, I already told you I was...
05:07Kane, no.
05:09You know me.
05:09Why the hell don't you believe me?
05:12Let's just get this started.
05:17Interview commencing 10.33pm.
05:19Present are Detective Baker, Senior Constable Harper,
05:22Morag Bellingham, Counsel for the Accused,
05:24and Kane Phillips.
05:28I should give Kirsty a ring in the city,
05:30let her know what's going on.
05:31What good's that gonna do?
05:32Al, she should know.
05:34Know what?
05:35You've got nothing to tell her.
05:36What's the point of upsetting her in the middle of the night
05:38before you know what's going on?
05:41Yeah, you're right.
05:43Anyway, the cops will come to their senses soon.
05:45I just can't believe Pete hasn't put an end to it already.
05:48He's just doing his job like he said.
05:51And with Kane's record.
05:52Don't tell me you actually believe it.
05:54Of course I don't.
05:55What the hell is the matter with you?
05:57Oh, for crying out loud woman,
05:57of course I don't believe he did it.
05:59All I'm saying is I...
06:01I can understand how the cops might think that he did.
06:04You've got to admit it doesn't look too good.
06:09And what time was that?
06:11Uh, 7.30 this morning.
06:12I dropped him off to the bus stop, he got on, I took off,
06:15and then I didn't know anything was up until tonight.
06:18And you got the call at home?
06:19Yeah, I was at home, yeah, but he called my mobile.
06:22What time was this?
06:23Uh, 8, maybe a bit after that.
06:26Was there anyone else at home with you at the time?
06:28What, to pack my story open, man?
06:29Please just answer the question.
06:32Yeah, yeah, I was by myself.
06:36What happened then?
06:38Um, well, his son had really worked up,
06:40but he wouldn't say why,
06:41just that he needed me to come and get him.
06:43So, I did, and he was waiting by the side of the road
06:46where he said he'd be.
06:48He got in the car and said that I had to get out of there real fast
06:51or we'd both be dropped right in him.
06:52Dropped in what?
06:53Oh, he didn't say at first.
06:55So you just did what your dad was asking you to do?
06:57Yeah, I took off, yeah.
06:58I mean, he was pretty frantic.
07:00I didn't have much choice.
07:01But I told him I wanted to know what was going on.
07:04He wouldn't tell me at first,
07:06so I threatened to pull over to the side of the road
07:08and that's when he came clean.
07:09What did he say?
07:10He said him and this other guy had done a job together,
07:13the one that Dad went inside for.
07:15But this other guy got away,
07:17but he didn't get his share of the cash,
07:18so when Dad got out,
07:21this other guy came looking for his money.
07:24But your dad didn't have it?
07:25No, no.
07:26So this guy told him that he better get the money fast
07:29or he was going to cop it.
07:30And so was I.
07:32Why would Gus pretend to leave town, Kane?
07:35What do you think?
07:36So he could do the job without you guys suspecting him.
07:39He planned to get the money,
07:41give it to this guy and then shoot through.
07:45Then he tripped the alarm
07:46and realised you guys were going to be after him,
07:48so he did the bolt with the cash,
07:50called me and here we are.
07:55If he was in the car with you,
07:57how come there was no sign of him when we pulled you over?
07:59Well, he ran off.
08:00That's what I'm telling you, alright?
08:02He heard the sirens, he started freaking out,
08:05he ran off into the bushes.
08:07So, I mean, you guys should really be out there looking for him
08:09instead of sitting in here interviewing me.
08:11Look, there's a team out there now looking through the bush
08:13near where you were pulled over, okay?
08:14On a wild goose chase.
08:16Right, so does that mean you believe me?
08:17It means I'm entertaining the possibility.
08:19No matter how far-fetched it seems.
08:21What is your problem, mate?
08:23Oh, I don't have a problem,
08:24but you will when we get the fingerprints off that gun.
08:26I told you, my fingerprints are going to be on the gun.
08:30I was struggling with Dad when he was trying to get out of the car.
08:34I grabbed the gun, okay?
08:37This is stupid, they're not going to believe a word I say.
08:39Um, detective, my client has told you everything he knows.
08:42Now you either formally charge him or we go.
08:44Either way, this interview is over.
08:45The interview is over when we say it's over.
08:48Interview is suspended at 10.58pm.
08:52Okay, I need to make some more inquiries
08:53and I can't do it at this time of night, so you're free to go.
08:56He should at least be held in custody.
08:57He won't go anywhere.
09:00Will you?
09:01No, he will not.
09:02But I must caution you not to leave this area, okay?
09:05We need to speak to you again very soon.
09:25Well, um, there's nothing more I can do tonight.
09:27I'll be in touch in the morning and we'll take it from there.
09:31Thanks, Maury. Thank you.
09:34Fine, I'll just do my best to get everything cleared up.
09:36Thanks. Thanks, I know you will. Cheers.
09:38Bye. I guess we'll see you tomorrow.
09:42This is so crazy. What was Peter thinking?
09:44Oh, well, at least he'd let me come home.
09:46If it was up to Harper, I'd be spending the night in the cells.
09:49But Peter knows you wouldn't do something like this.
09:51I mean, he, of all people...
09:52Oh, look, I wouldn't believe my story either.
09:54I mean, what kind of father would let their son
09:56take the rap for something they didn't do?
09:58I don't even know why I'm surprised.
10:00I just kept telling myself,
10:01oh, there must be some other reason why he's back in town,
10:03but nah, nah, I let myself believe him like a total sucker.
10:08I should know he couldn't change.
10:09Sorry, sorry.
10:10No, no, you don't have to be sorry.
10:12I'd be a mess if I was you.
10:14Sweetheart, look, I know it's hard,
10:16but you've really got to try and keep your chin up here.
10:19Well, sort this out, we will.
10:21I'm just going to jump in the shower.
10:23Well, darling, don't you think you should ring Kirsty?
10:25She's got a right to know.
10:26Oh, there's nothing she can do in her.
10:27Oh, Cain, love, you know what she's like.
10:29If she finds out you've kept this from her...
10:31Yeah, yeah, all right, I'll call her.
10:33Well, look, let me ring her. I don't mind.
10:35No, look, I'll call her.
10:36I just need some time to get my head together.
10:38Thanks.
10:45You fancy a coffee?
10:46I don't think Irene would mind us helping ourselves under the circumstances.
10:49Oh, thank you.
10:52You know, this is a great thing you're doing, helping young Cain like this.
10:55Well, I'm not completely devoid of compassion, you know.
10:58Oh, I know, I know.
10:59It's just with the past that you and Cain have had together.
11:03I don't like seeing innocent people chewed up by the system, no matter what indiscretions
11:07they might have been guilty of before.
11:09How come you're so sure he is innocent this time?
11:12Don't you think he is?
11:14Well, of course I do.
11:15I'm asking you.
11:16It's not like you to believe someone that's had as colourful and chequered career as Cain.
11:21Alfred, I never lie when I hear it, when he's telling the truth.
11:25You think you'll be able to convince them of that?
11:29Yeah, that'd be right.
11:30The kid's just getting himself back on the straight and narrow.
11:33Got a baby on the way, and now this happens.
11:36Well, I've promised to help him as much as I can.
11:38But with the evidence as it is...
12:11Hey, Kirst, it's me.
12:12Sorry to ring so late.
12:15Yeah, I miss you too.
12:16A lot.
12:17How's Laura?
12:19Good.
12:21Good.
12:21Tell her and say hi.
12:22No.
12:24Actually, no.
12:27Kirst, I'm in big trouble.
12:35You're in early.
12:36Don't you normally have a date with a surfboard this time of the day?
12:39I wanted to get a head start on the robbery.
12:41I take it Jones and Rice have had no luck finding a trace on Gus Phillips last night.
12:45No sign of it.
12:46And we got a report from the manager of the bus depot.
12:49A man matching Gus Phillips' description bought a ticket from Yabby Creek to Queensland at 8.05 yesterday morning.
12:56All right, thanks.
12:58Oi, how much longer are we going to wait before we charge the guy?
13:00Well, we've got to get some more evidence before we can do anything.
13:03Oh, come on, Pete.
13:04I know he's some kind of friend of yours, but...
13:05Hey, that's got nothing to do with this, mate.
13:07Oh, he's lying through his teeth.
13:08It's open and shut.
13:10Guys!
13:12I need to take someone with me to the interview this morning.
13:16Take Lara.
13:17Fine.
13:19Five minutes?
13:20Sure.
13:25Morning, Haynes.
13:26Hi.
13:26Do you know Constable Fitzgerald?
13:28Is this about Cain?
13:30I just wanted to have a word with you or Jess or Josie as his employers.
13:34Well, I'm the only one that's around at the moment and there's nothing I can really tell.
13:37I won't take up much of your time.
13:40He did ask for some extra shifts, yeah, but...
13:43You gave them to him?
13:44Well, of course we did. He's a good worker.
13:46And what's Cain's demeanour been like in the last couple of days leading up to the robbery?
13:49What do you mean?
13:50Well, has he been himself or, you know, anxious, nervous, on edge?
13:54Pretty much normal, I guess.
13:56You guess?
13:57He arrived for his shift on time. He seemed absolutely fine.
14:00Only left about 7.30. Was that the end of his shift?
14:02We were quiet, so I let him go early.
14:05Well, he looked pretty busy when I was in.
14:09Hayley, I know you want to protect him, alright?
14:11But if you hold back anything, it might actually be something that could help him.
14:16He said he felt sick, so that's why I let him go early.
14:18But you said he seemed okay yesterday.
14:21Yeah, and he did. He was absolutely fine.
14:23It just came on pretty quickly later in the night.
14:28Well, we've heard that Cain's been short of money lately.
14:31I'm telling you, mate, this isn't a money issue.
14:34He was really desperate. He could have got the dough any number of places.
14:38Matter of fact, I offered to lend him some myself just yesterday morning.
14:42And did he take it?
14:43No.
14:44Why? If he needed it.
14:47Alf?
14:49He said there was another way he could get his hands on the cash.
14:52But he didn't say what?
14:54He just said he had something up his sleeve to take care of it.
15:03I am so sorry. I tried to get out of talking to him.
15:06Look, it's okay, alright? Don't worry about it.
15:08Yeah, I just want you to know I wasn't trying to put you in.
15:10I mean, I know that you had nothing to do with what happened.
15:13Hayley, it's cool, okay? There's nothing you could do.
15:17Sweetheart, it's okay. You had to be honest.
15:19You would have got yourself in a stride.
15:21Yeah, I know. I just hope I didn't make things too much worse.
15:25Well, I don't really think that's possible.
15:28So, what happens now? Has Peter spoken to you this morning?
15:31Nah, but more eggs down the cop shop, so we should know something soon.
15:36Um, excuse me? What do you mean you want to interview him again?
15:40Well, is that a problem?
15:41No, it is not a problem. It's futile.
15:43He told you everything he had to say last night.
15:46Well, some new information's come forward since then.
15:48Oh, really? Such as?
15:49Well, we could talk about that in an interview, but right now I've got a few things I need to
15:51tie up.
15:52Excuse me, has this got something to do with Alfred talking to you this morning?
15:55Oh, please, Mrs Bellingham.
15:57I'm sorry.
16:00You know, I wouldn't be representing Cain if I thought for one minute that he was guilty.
16:04I know.
16:06Completely off the record?
16:07Yes, of course.
16:08My gut says that Cain's telling the truth, okay?
16:11He's got far too much to lose to risk an armed robbery.
16:13Well, what on Earth are you doing?
16:14But you do...
16:14You know as well as I do that we've got a procedure to follow.
16:17I can't just sweep this under the carpet.
16:19Even if you believe he is...
16:20It doesn't matter what I believe.
16:22The evidence is what it is.
16:23And short of Gus reappearing or some witness coming forward to back up what Cain says...
16:29Look, I will do what I can for Cain.
16:31But right now things are not looking good for him.
16:33And in the end he might be charged for an offence that even you don't think he's guilty of.
16:39Detective, fax from the phone company just came in.
16:42I'll leave you to it.
16:43Detective.
16:46Records from the phone back near the office.
16:50So the call was made at the time Cain said to his mobile?
16:53Looks that way.
16:54Doesn't put Phillips in the clear though.
16:55No, but it's a start.
17:03Okay, no.
17:04Yeah, great.
17:04Thanks for that.
17:05Excellent.
17:06Yep.
17:06Okay, cool.
17:07I'll see you soon.
17:07Thanks.
17:10Well, it looks like Peter is on my side.
17:12Come again?
17:13Yeah, apparently he does believe my story but his hands are tied, you know, because of the evidence.
17:17What does that mean?
17:18Well, nothing.
17:20But you know, at least he's fighting for me.
17:22So you've got to head back down there again?
17:24Yeah, Peter wants to interview me again so Morag said he'll call.
17:29Cain?
17:30Cursed!
17:30Are you alright?
17:31Hey, hey.
17:32It's alright.
17:32I can't believe this is happening.
17:33I can't believe this is happening.
17:34Have they found Gus yet?
17:35He must be out there somewhere, right?
17:36Just calm down, okay?
17:37Just relax.
17:37Relax?
17:38How do you want me to relax?
17:38Just relax, Cursed.
17:39It's not good for the baby you're stressing out.
17:41Okay?
17:42Morag's out there fighting for me and apparently Peter's on my side too.
17:45So we'll sort this out.
17:47No worries.
17:48Hey.
17:49Come here.
17:53Peter?
17:54Yeah, just give me a sec.
17:55I've just got to finish preparing.
17:56Yeah, okay.
17:56But there's someone you need to speak to first.
17:58There was a witness to last night's robbery.
18:00He said he can ID the assailant.
18:03Let's go.
18:06I'm so sorry, Cain.
18:08If I didn't push you to forgive him.
18:10Cursed.
18:11I'm serious.
18:12You didn't even want to trust Gus and I made you know what's happened.
18:16Hey.
18:17This is not your fault, alright?
18:18It is.
18:21I guess he suckered us both in, didn't he?
18:23I'm sorry.
18:24No.
18:24I'll get it.
18:25I'm sorry, Cain.
18:27Peter, hi.
18:28Come on in.
18:29Peter?
18:29What's happening with the investigation?
18:31You know that he didn't do this, right?
18:32Hey, I thought we were meeting down the station.
18:34What's happening here?
18:35A witness has come forward to last night's robbery.
18:38Oh, thank God.
18:39That's great.
18:39That's awesome.
18:40That means I'm off the hook.
18:41The witness has shown a photo board and he positively identified you.
18:44What?
18:46I wasn't even there.
18:47This is...
18:49Hey, I didn't do this.
18:50This is crazy.
18:50I'm going to ask you to accompany us down the station for further questioning.
19:01The witness says he saw you appear from the bushland near the office, carrying the bag,
19:04make a phone call from the public phone booth, then get in a card, the description of which matches yours
19:08exactly and drive off.
19:09That is total...
19:11Look, I was...
19:12I was nowhere near the place until my dad called me.
19:15So you deny making the call yourself?
19:17Yeah, of course I...
19:18He denies it.
19:22What?
19:22You're just going to believe some stranger's word over mine?
19:24But that's just it, Cain.
19:25He's a stranger.
19:26What possible reason would he have to dump you in it, huh?
19:28I don't know, okay?
19:29I don't know, but...
19:31He's not telling the truth.
19:32I didn't do this.
19:33Mate, I would love to believe you, but this, as well as your prints being the only ones lifted from
19:39the gun,
19:40I didn't do this.
19:42This guy is full of...
19:43Look, um...
19:45So what happens now, detective?
19:48I'm going to have to ask your client to take part in a line-up.
20:06Now, just take your time, Mr Harvey.
20:09Is the man that you saw last night in that room?
20:11Yep.
20:12That's the one right there.
20:13Number three.
20:15Are you sure about that?
20:16Sure as eggs.
20:18I bet my life on it.
20:25Cain Phillips, you're being charged with armed robbery.
20:31You will be remanded in custody until a bail hearing, at which time you will appear before Yabby Creek District
20:35Court.
20:39You are not obliged to say anything further, but anything you do wish to say will be taken down and
20:43used in evidence.
20:49Hey, it's alright, I'll be back with you.
20:51She's alright, she's alright.
20:51Where are you taking me?
20:55Hey, hey, hey, come here, don't worry.
20:58It's okay.
20:59Shh.
21:00Shh.
21:02Shh.
21:02Shh.
21:02Shh.
21:02Shh.
21:02Shh.
21:03Shh.
21:03Shh.
21:03Shh.
21:03Shh.
21:05Shh.
21:12Hey, Jason.
21:14it's suddenly clear.
21:17I will always
21:19lead you here
21:21Hold me in your arms
21:24Don't let me go
21:26I want to stay forever
21:29Closer each day
21:32Home and away
