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 are there
00:35You are there, hold me in your arms, don't let me go
00:42I want to stay forever, closer each day, home and away
00:54Oh Mrs. Stewart!
00:57Hey, welcome back
00:58How was your trip, mate?
01:00Yeah, pretty good
01:00Oh, I forgot about the mail, I should go through it now
01:03I'll take care of it
01:04Well, why don't you let me help you sort it?
01:06Oh, Ruth, since when do I have to do everything on your time? What?
01:09This is a reminder to get a medical assessment so that you can renew your license
01:13But this is a month old
01:15It means you've missed the deadline
01:17Eh?
01:18But you're not licensed to drive
01:20I'll sort it out when I'm good and ready
01:22So is your first visit since we broke up as scary as you thought?
01:26You're always scary
01:29Oh, look at us, nailing this whole platonic thing
01:31Can you help me with this?
01:33Yeah, they get a bit sticky sometimes
01:36There's this seafood place in Roof to Lex I want to try
01:38Want to check it out?
01:40Sure
01:40There's also a DJ
01:41So there's dancing
01:43If you're up for it
01:44The hell I might be
01:55Abby!
01:56Hey!
01:57Hey!
01:58Do you need a hand?
01:59No, no, I'm good
02:00So I see you enjoyed your coffee down at the beach then?
02:03Yeah
02:03How was it?
02:06It was good
02:07One of your best
02:08Yeah
02:09And the other one
02:10Also one of my best
02:12What do you ask?
02:13I'm just part of the customer service
02:15I didn't hear any complaints
02:17Huh
02:19I should have done this earlier
02:20I have to work for the next couple hours
02:23But we can get dinner later if you're free
02:27I'd love to, but I've got plans
02:30Anything interesting?
02:32No, just, you know, stuff to do
02:36No
02:37Oh, arms
02:38After you
02:39No, no, after you
02:46Hey, spoke to the hospital again
02:48Still no change of attorney
02:49All right
02:50How's Joe going?
02:52Scared
02:52She's trying to step positive
02:54Oi, who's that kid?
02:58You're out when you're right
02:59Hey
03:02Paperwork signed
03:03Sergeant Langham
03:03On your desk
03:04Thank you
03:05And it's Sarge
03:07Say hello to our newest recruit
03:09This is Senior Constable Cash Newman
03:10I'm sure he'll be happy to show you around
03:12Constable Richard Bresniak
03:14Probationary
03:15Constable
03:16Everyone calls me Richie
03:17Right
03:18Well, welcome to the team, Richie
03:20It's a great station here
03:22You're going to have a good time
03:22Yeah
03:23Man, I can't wait
03:25Well, I'm going to knock off the day
03:27So I might send you those reports
03:28I was working on in the morning
03:29If that's right with you, Sarge
03:29I can always take care of it
03:31That's not going to be necessary, Bresniak
03:32You're a senior
03:33It's my job, isn't it?
03:34Yeah, I'll leave this with you two
03:35I'll see you for your first shift tomorrow
03:37All right
03:37See ya
03:41Oi, Bresniak
03:41Yeah
03:43How long have you been out of the academy for?
03:45A week
03:46How do you feel about grabbing a beer?
03:49Give me a heads up on how things work around here
03:52Yeah
03:52You know where the surf club is?
03:54I'll find it
03:55All right
03:55See you then
03:56See you there
03:56Yeah
04:04I'm happy to take that shift tomorrow, if you like
04:07Madeline, you shouldn't be working tonight
04:09What's going on?
04:11Woo, hi
04:12I wasn't expecting you here
04:13Yeah, well, Dad's working, Enda
04:15Thought I might come here to eat
04:16And I'll say he's being so frustrating
04:18What's happened now?
04:19Oh, well, he missed the medical appointment
04:21To get his licence renewed
04:23And he drove all the way back from Mum's
04:25Without realising it
04:26And now he's digging his heels in
04:28About ringing in the GP
04:29Shoot, but Rue, I get why this is important
04:32It is
04:33Yeah
04:33But he's going to pass that assessment
04:35With flying colours
04:36It's Al, his sharpest attack
04:38I don't think there's anything wrong with him
04:40It's just, it's illegal to drive
04:42Without a licence
04:43And I want to make sure that he's safe on the road
04:45Things change of age
04:47You know, eyesight, reaction times
04:49Mmm, you're also more experienced
04:51You tend to take less risks
04:53It's something that he can't ignore
04:55So
04:56Yeah
04:59So, what's the deal with Sarge?
05:01Any tips for staying on his good side?
05:03Yeah, Sarge is hardline
05:04Likes to do things by the book
05:05Well, it's a note
05:06He's fair
05:07And straight up
05:08You're not going to leave work
05:09Ronding what he thinks like
05:09Yeah
05:10So how come he's got a senior
05:12Constable doing paperwork
05:13And he isn't allowed to do this job?
05:14Yeah, a couple of larger things
05:16Yeah
05:16I'm just trying to understand
05:18I want to keep him on side
05:19Yeah, of course
05:20Oh, sorry
05:21That's the wife
05:21She probably wondering where I am
05:23Hey, babe
05:24Yeah, I'm just down at salt
05:25Taking the new guy out for a beer
05:29My brother-in-law takes his job pretty seriously
05:32I'm a big gal
05:33Oh, Richie
05:34Hi
05:34We'll be working together soon
05:36What is he like?
05:37Anything I should know?
05:39With cash?
05:41What you see is what you get
05:44And?
05:45That's pretty much all there is to it
05:46He's a good guy
05:47It's all you need to know
05:49Okay
05:50Well, I mean, there is one thing
05:51If you really wanted to get him on side
05:53Yeah
05:54Yeah
05:55He absolutely loves pranks
05:57Being pranked, playing them
05:58And if you can get him good
06:00That's instant respect
06:02Do it that way you will
06:23Hello
06:25What are you up to?
06:26Oh, you know, just going for my morning walk
06:28How'd you go?
06:29Did you catch anything?
06:30Nah, not even a nibble
06:31Oh, that's a shame
06:32You were up so early and everything
06:34You're keeping tabs on me
06:35No
06:36Don't be silly
06:38Oh, I was wondering whether you had actually found time to make that appointment with the doctor
06:42No, I got a fair bit on this morning
06:44Okay, well, you know, I can help
06:47I can make the appointment for you
06:48I don't need your help
06:49And I don't need some flaming test that's going to tell me what I already know
06:53Actually, you do, Dad
06:55It's the law
06:55I'm as fit as a mully bull
06:57Okay, well, then there shouldn't be any stress about having a medical, okay?
07:00It's just a formality
07:01I can drive as good as anyone
07:03In fact, I taught you
07:04So why aren't you having the flaming test?
07:06Because I'm not 75 years and over
07:08Look, I know it's annoying, all right?
07:11And I think there's a time when we should all have a medical test
07:14We were talking about it last night
07:15Who's we?
07:17Oh, well, you know, Leah and Justin
07:19Well, Leah and Justin shouldn't mind their own flaming business
07:22Dad, we care about you
07:23Could you please just make the appointment?
07:35You like the place, huh?
07:36Uh, can't keep away
07:39I'm doing the coffee run this morning
07:40Sarge told me all the time
07:41It's my show
07:41It's why I'm here
07:42Oh, no, you don't have to
07:47Is that coffee ready?
07:48Uh-huh
07:49Did you have a late night?
07:51Oh, no, I just had to get up early for a class
07:55Well, you look pretty cheerful for someone who hasn't slept that much
07:58It was a good class
08:00Really good
08:01Great
08:02So, was last night fun?
08:05Do you really need to know?
08:06I'm just being polite
08:08You know, we're not together anymore
08:09You can do whatever you want
08:11Cool
08:15Here we go
08:17Thanks, Abigail
08:18No, no, it's Abby, please
08:19Uh, Abby, then
08:23You look really good in your uniform
08:25Thanks
08:26Yeah, it feels good, you know
08:27Well, it suits you
08:29Thank you
08:30Yeah, the blue does amazing things for your eyes
08:33You look pretty good yourself
08:34What, me?
08:35Yeah, definitely
08:36Trust me, I know what I like
08:38Sarge's not going to be happy if you keep him waiting
08:42Using other people in your breakup, gangs
08:45It's not cool, Abby
08:59Richie
09:00Wait
09:01Um
09:02Hello again
09:03Hi
09:03Hi
09:04Um
09:06I need to apologise
09:09For what?
09:10The flirting
09:11I shouldn't have done that
09:13You're a customer
09:13Ah, it's fine
09:15And honestly, I was only doing it to get back at my ex
09:19Ah
09:20Yeah
09:22The guy you were talking to before me?
09:24Mm-hmm
09:25I just needed to explain
09:27And I
09:27I'm really sorry
09:31Did it work?
09:33Is he jealous now?
09:35Nope
09:35He missed the whole thing
09:37I guess that says me, right?
09:40You want to know what I think?
09:42What?
09:45I think your ex must be an idiot
09:50Well, he's really not
09:52Thank you
09:53Um
09:55Good luck
09:55With your first day today
09:57I'll see you around
10:00Yeah
10:01See you around
10:06Good morning
10:07This is nice
10:09What are we doing today?
10:10Well, it depends on whether I can get Dad in to see his doctor
10:13Ask the butterflies, mother
10:15I know you don't want to talk about this, Dad
10:16But we need to do this
10:18What do you mean, we?
10:19Well, because you legally can't drive
10:20I'm going to have to give you a lift
10:21I didn't ask
10:23I'm offering
10:23Oh, Dad?
10:24Mr. Stewart?
10:25I've lost my appetite
10:26Oh, come on
10:27I don't need anyone telling me what to do, Rue
10:30Especially not my own daughter
10:31You know what?
10:32I wouldn't have to
10:33If you actually had
10:34Where are you going?
10:35Out
10:41So that guard has been released from Reefden Lakes private
10:44He'll make a full recovery
10:45That's a good time
10:46And the DPP just called
10:47Kerry Matheson has decided to plead guilty to all charges
10:51Oh
10:51She's decided to do the right thing after causing that damage
10:54Yeah, we just have to hope that Tarnier makes a full recovery
10:56There you go, Sergeant
10:57Thanks, Richie
10:58You're welcome
11:02Thanks, Richie
11:03You have a problem, Newman?
11:05No
11:07I'm going to get started on the paperwork
11:08Change of plan
11:09You're taking the young fella out on patrol
11:11Restricted duties
11:12Can't do it
11:12You're on whatever duties I say you're on
11:16Yes, Sergeant
11:16Look, he's obviously keen to learn
11:19He'll be lucky to shadow you
11:21And he'll be in good hands
11:25You need to go home
11:26No
11:26Change
11:27No, no
11:32Gotcha
11:33I heard you love pranks
11:35So
11:36You heard wrong
11:38Oh, sorry
11:40Grab your gear
11:41We're going out on patrol
11:42What have we got?
11:43We've got traffic duty, Bresniak
11:45Get rid of that
11:48Sorry
11:58Mr. Stewart
11:59Everything all right?
12:01Yeah, it would be
12:02If my daughter stopped trying to run my life
12:05Oh, and before I forget
12:06I met a friend of yours in the caravan park
12:08Said her name was Lily
12:11I should get back to this
12:12Hey, hang on
12:13She gave me your spare key to give back to you
12:17Thanks, Mr. Stewart
12:18See you later
12:29Oh, good day
12:29It's Alf Stewart calling
12:31I was wondering if the doc would have any time to see me today
12:42Look, I'm sorry about the prank earlier
12:45I was told you're a big fan
12:46You know
12:47I was just trying to get some points with you
12:49Who told you that I was a fan of pranks?
12:51Ah
12:52Abigail
12:54Yeah
12:55Abigail
12:56Yeah
12:57She said you loved pranks
12:58And that I'd get instant respect from you
13:01Okay, let me correct you there
13:02You get zero respect
13:07Why would she tell me something that wasn't true?
13:09Keep your eyes on the road
13:23Was she trying to get my attention?
13:25I don't know
13:25She must be though, right?
13:27You want my take on the job?
13:29You need to keep a clear boundary
13:31Between your personal and your professional life
13:35Yeah
13:35Yeah, you understand?
13:36We're working right now
13:37Let's try to focus on the job
13:39Good call, okay
13:39Yeah, good call
13:41Oh, hang on a sec
13:48Oi, we got a live one
13:50Rego's expired
13:51Okay, alright, hey
13:52Let's pull them over
14:08What seems to be the problem, officer
14:10I know I wasn't speeding
14:12Your registration's expired
14:15Were you aware of that, Mr. Stewart?
14:18It's news to me
14:20Are you sure?
14:21I am
14:23Go see your licence, please, sir
14:26There's a problem with that
14:29It's expired, too
14:32You're right, sir
14:34That is a problem
14:47It's unbelievable
14:48So, I walk outside
14:50And his car is gone after everything we talked about
14:53Really?
14:54Yes
14:54I'm really surprised he would drive today
14:56Well, it's illegal
14:57He can't drive
14:58So, does he not care?
14:59Or did he forget?
15:01Oh, Dad
15:02Wait
15:03Um, are you okay?
15:06I was driving to see the doctor
15:09And these blokes pulled me over
15:10Probationary Constable Richard Bresniak
15:12And we are just here because we drove Alf's car home
15:15But there's nothing to worry about
15:16We can sort this out
15:16Well, driving with an expired licence in an unregistered car
15:20I'd say that's cause for concern
15:21Did you let your rego lapse?
15:25Slipped my mind
15:27There's keys right
15:28Oh, you can't wait a minute
15:29They're mine
15:29Well, I've got to go to work
15:31And you guys must be really busy
15:32I'm sorry, what happens now?
15:34Well, as I said
15:35You'll be facing charges
15:36And there's a substantial fine
15:37Hang on, just a second
15:41It's the first offence on both counts, correct?
15:44Alright, how about you sort everything out
15:46And we let you off with a warning
15:47I broke the flaming law
15:49Just give me a fine
15:50I think Cash is trying to help, Dad
15:51For the last time, I don't need any help
15:55Well
15:57I guess I can start the paperwork at the station if you like
16:01You'll receive the infringement notices in the mail
16:03Okay, Constable, let's go
16:04I'll see you out
16:05Yep
16:07Thanks
16:07Thanks for it
16:08Yeah, thanks, Cash
16:20Can we talk?
16:22It's not a good time, as you can see
16:23I'm sorry about before
16:25I didn't mean for you to hear that from Mr. Stewart
16:28So why not tell me so?
16:30Because I didn't know how you feel about it
16:33It's not something that I saw coming
16:35It just
16:37Happened
16:39Okay, so why not be honest about it?
16:41You at least owe me that
16:42You're right
16:44I do
16:50I went out for a date last night
16:53Her name was Lily
16:54We had a good time
16:55And then she ended up staying at my place
16:59Ah, hence the spare key
17:01Yeah, but I really did have an early class
17:03I didn't want to wake her up
17:07Used to do that for me
17:10We both made it clear that it was a one-time thing
17:13Either way, it's not a problem
17:15I just want you to feel like you can be honest with me
17:17Yeah, I know
17:19I just, I didn't want to hurt you
17:25Are we good?
17:27Yeah, we're fine
17:31Okay, I better get to another lesson
17:33Alright, well don't keep on waiting
17:43The fact you know I'll steal it
17:44That's, that's not an issue
17:46Mate, this is a small town
17:47And I just doubt everybody
17:48So I use discretion
17:49Um, isn't that special treatment, though?
17:52Well, it's like I said
17:53These are the decisions we have to make every day
17:55Whilst we're out on patrol
17:56What about conflict of interest?
17:58Look, if there was a grey area here
18:00I would happily bring it to Sarge's attention
18:02Are you okay?
18:04We pulled over Alf Stewart
18:06Right
18:08Can I get you something, Sarge?
18:09A cup of tea or...
18:11Oh, I'm good, thanks
18:12I could go grab the lunches
18:14I could definitely eat
18:15Alright, I want it
18:20I'm just keen to please
18:21What's wrong with that?
18:24It's nice to have some new enthusiasm around
18:27Oh, is that what we're calling it?
18:28Oh, ease up, Newman
18:30You were new to the job once
18:32Now talk to me about Alf
18:34Why'd you have to pull him over?
18:38Hey, thank you so much for doing that
18:40Where are we at?
18:41Just butt out, eh, Rue?
18:42Well, Dad's pretty hard to do that
18:43When you're escorted home by the police
18:44Okay, the safety check inspection's been ticked off
18:47I've sent all the details through online
18:49Right, so his registration is up to date?
18:51Yes
18:51Car's in good shape
18:53So's the driver
18:54Oh, that was pretty easy to do in the end, wasn't it?
18:56I know how to renew my registration, Rue
18:58I just forgot, that's all
19:00Happens to all of us, mate
19:01I forget stuff all the time
19:02Yeah, it's pretty easy to do
19:04But look, I think I've fixed it
19:05Okay, I've set up notifications on your phone
19:07to pay bills on time
19:09And also, see, here's your next committee meeting
19:12Did you put a reminder in there
19:13for you to keep your hands off my phone?
19:15Here's your next doctor's appointment
19:16Okay, do you want me to show you how to use this?
19:18No, thanks
19:19Thanks, Justin
19:21Bye, mate
19:23It's not like him to forget me
19:27I'm worried about him
19:40Hi, you're back again
19:44I really like the coffee here
19:46Eh, service is alright, too
19:49How's your birthday going?
19:50Great
19:51You know, I'm learning a lot
19:52I mean, this is all I've ever wanted

20:00Yeah, turns out he doesn't like pranks
20:02You didn't?
20:03Did you actually?
20:04Yeah
20:04Oh, my bad

20:12Nope
20:12Oh, I would pay to see that
20:15Nice workout, Frank Henry
20:16I'm impressed
20:17Look, I am sorry
20:19But it was fun
20:20I'm glad
20:21But given what you're going through with your ex
20:22That doesn't sound like a lot of fun

20:41Like
20:42On a date
20:44Yeah, why not?
20:48Is that a yes?
20:50Yeah, yeah

21:18Yes, he mentioned it
21:19I suppose you know I got pulled over by the cops too, eh?
21:35Look, I'm
21:37I'm sorry
21:38It's just
21:39All of a sudden
21:40Ru's treating me like I'm a silly old fool
