00:01You can't just leave. Why didn't you say something earlier?
00:03I wanted to. It's Mum. She needs me.
00:06And all this stuff with Irene really hit it home.
00:08What about us? Like, everything was going so good and now you're just going?
00:12Well, it doesn't have to be like that.
00:16I'm asking you to come with me.
00:26Do you think you could give these to Irene for me?
00:28She probably won't accept them if she knows it from me, but I really want her to have them.
00:32My way of saying thanks.
00:33Aw, that's really sweet of you.
00:35I'll give them to Barry if you like. He said he's going over to see you this afternoon.
00:38Yeah, thanks.
00:39Ben found guilty in a corporate fraud case.
00:42Seen here with his son.
00:43The Davis was sentenced to 20 years, Joe.
00:45Corey!
00:46I need you to call up that police database again.
00:48I need all the names of the people that served in the jury from the Davis case.
00:52Irene Roberts.
00:54Oh, my God.
00:56You know we belong together
01:00You and I forever and ever
01:04No matter where you are
01:08You're my guiding star
01:12You'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
01:29The fact that Corey is my ex-partner has no bearing on what he's done.
01:33All I'm saying is there's obviously some bad blood between you.
01:36Maybe you're putting two and two together and getting 15.
01:38The evidence I have found suggests that he's already poisoned four people. One of them fatally.
01:43I need to bring him in now.
01:45Mate, if he was out for revenge, why would he fiddle about sending Irene Roberts loopy instead of just outright
01:50killing her?
01:50It doesn't make sense.
01:51It does make sense. It makes perfect sense.
01:53All of those people on the jury that put his father in jail. He wants them to suffer.
01:57Well, there's some merit in that theory, but we won't be applying for a warrant for his arrest until you've
02:02compiled all the evidence and run it by McGrath.
02:04We don't have time. He's leaving town as we speak.
02:06I need to get the green light from the box.
02:08This is crazy!
02:10Where the hell are you going?
02:12To do my job.
02:13Jack!
02:17Where's Corey?
02:18He's not here.
02:20Hey, where are you going?
02:21Where is he then?
02:21He's gone.
02:22What do you mean? He wasn't leaving until tonight.
02:24Oh, no change of plans. He and Martha decided to head off early.
02:26He's with Martha.
02:27Yeah, why? What's wrong?
02:29Jack, tell me what's going on.
02:36Why is Jack calling me? Why doesn't he get the message?
02:39Why are you calling me? I told you I don't want to hear from you again.
02:42Just listen to me.
02:42No, you listen to me. Stay out of my life.
02:47Hello, Jack.
02:49Where are you?
02:50We're on our way to our new life.
02:52If you do anything to hurt her, I swear to God...
02:54Go away, Jack.
02:55I know about your father.
02:57And I know what you've been doing to Irene.
03:01Why don't you just pull over before you both get hurt?
03:04It's too late now, Jack.
03:05It's all done now anyway.
03:07What does that mean?
03:08Goodbye, Jack.
03:09Corey!
03:13What were you saying about Corey's father and Irene?
03:16No more interruptions.
03:17It's just you, me and the open ring.
03:25Now, I want you to tell me everything that Corey did.
03:28Everything he said.
03:29I told you already.
03:30I need details, Hayley.
03:32All of them.
03:32It's really important.
03:33I wish you'd just tell me what's going on.
03:34Details.
03:35All right.
03:37Sally and I got home a few minutes before they left.
03:40Corey was doing some last-minute packing.
03:41What was he packing?
03:42I don't know.
03:43I didn't see it.
03:43But he was putting something in his bag when we came in.
03:46Go on.
03:47We talked about the rent.
03:49He said he was leaving some extra cash on the fridge.
03:52I told him I'd miss him and that he'd been a good friend.
03:54Do you really need to hear all this?
03:56Keep going.
03:57All right.
03:58Oh, Alf arrived at Martha.
04:00She had her bags packed.
04:01We all said goodbye pretty much straight away.
04:03That's it.
04:04They just headed off.
04:04You didn't see anything suspicious?
04:06No.
04:08Sally was just dropping me home, so she went home.
04:10And I think Alf left to give the chocolates to Barry.
04:13Chocolates?
04:13What chocolates?
04:14The chocolates Corey bought for Irene.
04:16Alf's giving them to Barry to take to the care home this afternoon.
04:19Come on, let's go.
04:20What?
04:20Oh, it's fighting in the car.
04:21Come on, let's go.
04:28You've gone quiet.
04:30Sorry, it's just, um, thinking about moving on and how much I've had to do it lately.
04:35Is that a problem?
04:37No, no.
04:38I like moving on.
04:39It's just, you know, sometimes you've got to stop and process it, you know?
05:00Um, where are we going?
05:02Hey, it's a surprise.
05:04What surprise?
05:06Well, if I told you, it wouldn't be a surprise to him, would it, Einstein?
05:09Oh, come on, just give me a clue.
05:11Come on, just one.
05:11You'll see when we get there.
05:13It's just something I've been planning.
05:15Is it animal, mineral or vegetable?
05:18Well, it could be all three.
05:25Where are the chocolates?
05:26Oh, good afternoon to you too, officer.
05:28Where are they?
05:29Have you given the Barry yet?
05:30What's your problem?
05:31Just to answer the question, Irene's life could be at stake here.
05:33What?
05:34Al, please.
05:35I gave him to Barry about ten minutes ago and he's taken them to Irene now.
05:39What's going on?
05:45They're on the road heading south.
05:47We've dispatched the unit.
05:48You have, thank God.
05:49Have they spotted them yet?
05:50No, nothing.
05:52Okay, I'm on my way to the care home.
05:54I'll give you a call and I'm done.
05:55Okay, roger.
05:56Copy that.
05:57Great.
05:58Harbour sent a car out after them.
06:00This can't be happening.
06:04You can't have that on in here.
06:06Sorry.
06:10He cut it off.
06:12What?
06:13Do you know their number for the care home?
06:15Yeah, yeah, I do.
06:17Give them a call.
06:18I'll tell you what to say.
06:19You seem a bit flat out today.
06:21We've had three more residents join us and no extra staff put on.
06:30No answer.
06:31What the hell's going on?
06:32This is crazy.
06:34It's totally crazy.
06:35We're going to get there.
06:36So, Corey's behind Irene being sick?
06:38Yes.
06:39And what's in the chocolates?
06:40Probably enough toxin to kill with one bite if he sticks to his M.O.
06:43Oh, my God.
06:47Irene, please.
06:49I'm not the enemy here.
06:50I just came by to say hello.
06:52I promise.
06:55We've gone faster.
06:56Give me another call.
07:04Oh, my God.
07:05What on earth is going on here?
07:07Oh, my God.
07:07They are poison.
07:08You didn't have any, did you?
07:09What's in them?
07:10I demand an explanation.
07:11I'm going to get an urgent heavy metal set on these and get her an ambulance.
07:19Come on, please.
07:20Just tell me where we're going.
07:21I told you it's a surprise.
07:22Come on.
07:23Just why?
07:23We have been driving for ages.
07:25Yeah, well, we don't have to drive much further.
07:27It's just up here.
07:34Check this out.
07:35Come on, come on.
07:36Quick.
07:38Where is it?
07:39Oh, it's here.
07:41What do you think?
07:42Wow.
07:43This is so beautiful.
07:47I had no idea this lookout was here.
07:49How did you know about it?
07:50I took a detour on my way into town.
07:53I can't believe you planned all this.
07:55It's so thoughtful.
07:59Look, I like to take care of you.
08:07Man and fire, what's with that?
08:10It's primal.
08:12There you go.
08:12Perfect.
08:13So what, you're saying you're all cavemen underneath?
08:15Ah, sort of.
08:16But some of us are more sophisticated than others.
08:20Oh, really?
08:21Why not?
08:23Because if we drink that, then we can't drive.
08:25Don't you want to see your mum?
08:26Oh, well, I don't know what I was thinking.
08:28We're not going to get there before dark.
08:29So what do you say to a romantic night under the stars?
08:34I like the way you're thinking.
08:35So you might.
08:36Mm-hmm.
08:39What?
08:40It's just, I wasn't sure about coming here with you to start with, you know?
08:44It's such a big thing.
08:46But the more time we spend together, the more I know I made the right decision.
08:54No, I'm at Northern District Hospital waiting for Harper to get here.
08:57Gone where?
08:59Can you reach me?
09:01Tell them I'm going to wait here for five more minutes and then I'm leaving in my own unit.
09:05We're getting you into a bed, Irene, and this trip is going to flush out your system while we wait.
09:09What was he giving me?
09:10Well, let's wait for the test results to confirm it.
09:14Hayley, they're not going to look me up in here too, are they?
09:16No, no, no, no, they're going to look after you this time.
09:19I'm so sorry, Irene.
09:21I'm so sorry, I didn't believe you.
09:22No, I'm did.
09:24I told you them.
09:26I know, Irene.
09:27And we couldn't regret it more.
09:28We're on the right track now, we're going to sort this out, okay?
09:34What took you so long?
09:36I was busy dispatching units.
09:37We got an APB out on the two of them and the vehicle.
09:39We should get something soon.
09:41McGrath's done a back room on Corey and your information checks out.
09:44Great, let's kick on.
09:45Yeah, to the station.
09:47We need to be ready to roll when we get a confirmed sign.
09:48You can't be serious.
09:50Another car on the road isn't going to make any difference, Jack.
09:52We've got work to do.
09:53Martha is out there with a complete nutter.
09:55There's no reason to assume she's in immediate danger.
09:57His target was Irene.
09:58As far as we know, his relationship with the girl is genuine.
10:01Except he knows that I know.
10:03What?
10:04I thought that it might spook him enough to make him stop.
10:08You idiot.
10:09He could have died for cover.
10:11Or he could be setting a trap for our guys to walk into.
10:13I've got to get back to the station now.
10:15Then I'm going out there alive.
10:17Oh, do what you like.
10:18It'll be hard to blow it any more than you already have.
10:22I would say lying on the ground looking after the sky is one of my all-time favourite things to
10:26do.
10:29You know, there are places in America where the planes are so big and the sky stretches so far,
10:36you can see the curve of the horizon.
10:39Did you know that?
10:41Um...
10:42Are you asleep?
10:43No, no.
10:45Um...
10:46I've got to go to the bathroom.
11:17I've got to go to the bathroom.
11:24What are you doing?
11:26Um, nothing.
11:27Just, um, looking for the keys to the car.
11:29I need my jumper.
11:30The car's open.
11:31Oh, yeah.
11:33That's right.
11:34I must be getting a bit tipsy.
11:44She's being settled into a room.
11:46What will happen to her now?
11:48I'm going to keep her in here for a few days, OK?
11:49We get rid of all the toxins, all the medication out of the bloodstream,
11:52and then we do some repeat tests to make sure that she's clear of all the mercury.
11:54So the mercury, it was causing the headaches, the delusion.
11:58Absolutely.
11:58And the mood swings?
11:59A whole lot of physical and neurological problems.
12:02Flynn, are you saying that there's no psychiatric illness?
12:06Yep.
12:06Have you heard the term man is a hatter?
12:08Mm-hmm.
12:09In the 19th century, the hatters, they used to use mercury in the hadding film
12:12until they all started getting delusions and they're suffering from mercury poisoning.
12:16What would have happened if Jack hadn't worked this out?
12:18The dust and the chocolate would be lethal enough to kill her.
12:22I just can't believe that Corey's behind all this.
12:26What's taking you so long?
12:27Fire's going out.
12:28I got my jacket.
12:30I'm just looking for, um, women's stuff.
12:32Oh, too much information.
12:34Sorry.
12:35It's all right, I'll get some more wood.
12:37OK.
12:45Martha, you OK?
12:46Jack, I found some stuff in Corey's bag.
12:48I think he's been poisoning Irene.
12:49Yes, he has.
12:50Where are you?
12:50I don't know, I'm at some lookout.
12:52I'm so scared.
12:54What's the name of the lookout?
12:55Um, it's, um, Flinders.
13:00Martha, I can't hear you.
13:05It's a lookout.
13:07Flind, uh, Flinders maybe, or Flint.
13:18Oh, my God.
13:31Oh.
13:35Oh.
13:37Oh.
14:00Come on, I'm going to hit you.
14:05Come on, come on.
14:06Mother!
14:08Mother!
14:10Dad!
14:12Dad!
14:16It's all right, it's all right.
14:17Where is he?
14:19He's over here.
14:20He's over here.
14:30Oh my God, he's gone.
14:48Dad!
14:49Did you make a mistake, Dad?
14:50Both of you.
14:56You can't win this, Corey.
14:59Come on, mate, I'm begging you, do the right thing here.
15:01If I can't win tonight, I'm going down fighting.
15:05Give me the gun.
15:05You know that I can't do that.
15:07Put down the gun, Jack.
15:09Let Martha go.
15:10For God's sake, let her breathe.
15:12Just put it down, Jack.
15:20Don't try anything with me, do you hear me?
15:22What happened to you, mate?
15:23The system let me down.
15:25Then I'll feel sorry for you.
15:26Don't feel sorry for me.
15:27I did what I had to do.
15:28This had nothing to do with Martha, okay?
15:30So just let her go.
15:30This isn't a part of your plan.
15:32If she knows, and you know, I'll still go out to date her.
15:38Mate, you don't want to hurt her.
15:40I know that you don't.
15:42So this is what we're going to do.
15:43I'm going to give the keys to the police car.
15:45You're going to let Martha go, and you're going to make a run for it.
15:48Do that, and it'll be one less mistake you've made.
15:50Do you think I'm stupid, Jack?
15:52Get it.
15:53Get it.
16:04Stay still, mate.
16:06Stand the line.
16:09Call for help, Martha.
16:16You look like you could use this.
16:18It's the truth, love.
16:19Look at the stadia.
16:20What's happened?
16:21How are you feeling?
16:23Okay.
16:24What the flaming hell's gone on here?
16:25I mean, one minute you're raving on about chocolates,
16:27the next minute I get a call from someone saying
16:29Martha's being held hostage.
16:30It's a long story.
16:32Well, I'm all ears, mate.
16:33Starting the interview with Corey.
16:35I went in on that.
16:36It'd be cleaner if you left it alone.
16:38I went in on this.
16:39I did all the groundwork.
16:42Okay.
16:42Hurry up, then.
16:46I'll give you a call later, and I'll let you know what happened.
16:47Yeah, damn right you will.
16:49Come on, love.
16:50Let's get you out of here.
17:11Why?
17:14They called my father's trial justice.
17:20They made him a criminal, and all he wanted to do was help his family.
17:27Those jurors, each and every one of them, they drove my father to do what he did.
17:36They sent my mother to that place.
17:41Do you remember what it was like when we took Irene away the other day?
17:45The pain.
17:47The pain.
17:48The humiliation.
17:51That's what it was like for my mother when she went away.
17:55And that's why they deserve to go through the same thing.
18:00That's justice.
18:06In the end, it wasn't hard getting him to talk.
18:08It was hard getting him to stop.
18:10He was so smug.
18:13How did he make it all happen, Jack?
18:15Remember the first break-in?
18:16Leo Sims?
18:17Yeah.
18:18Well, Corey organised him to break in and put the mercury in your sweetener.
18:22That's why nothing was stolen.
18:23Exactly.
18:23Except he was interrupted.
18:25That's why he had to come back again.
18:28Where can Robbie ears about this?
18:30So, if the sweetener was already poisoned, why did Corey move in?
18:33That was just a fluke.
18:34He saw the ad for the room and the diner, and he fell in love with the idea of moving
18:38in and controlling it, watching it happen.
18:40But Irene decided she didn't want to take on a border.
18:43And that's why Corey organised the third break-in.
18:47He wanted you to be spooked.
18:49And who better to turn to than a cop?
18:51You little creeper.
18:53Oh, it makes me shiver to my bones, thinking that he was in the house with me.
18:58I can't believe I was so sucked in by him.
19:00He seemed so normal and nice.
19:02He was very controlled.
19:04So, with this mercury, was he fully aware of the impact that he was going to have?
19:08Absolutely.
19:08He'd done his research.
19:10He blamed the jurors for what happened to his father, and ultimately, his mother's madness.
19:15He wanted them to suffer the same way she did.
19:18He was working his way through the jurors one by one.
19:20Oh, my God.
19:21And who'd suspect a cop, eh?
19:23He was in the perfect position to get away with it.
19:27I really thought that I was going mad.
19:31I really thought...
19:33Oh, Hayley.
19:35I was so scared.
19:38I know, I know.
19:40But you don't have to worry anymore.
19:42The nightmare's finally over.
19:52We should make tracks soon, eh, love?
19:56Will you be okay if I start to lock up outside?
19:59Yep.
20:00Go ahead.
20:10I should've known I'd find you here.
20:17I've been worried about you ever since you left the station.
20:21You seem so shattered.
20:29Look.
20:31What happened today, it'll go through your head for weeks.
20:36And every time you think about it, it'll hit you again.
20:41Like a nightmare.
20:44But eventually, the details will fade.
20:49The feelings will fade.
20:52You're gonna get through this.
20:55I'm here for you if you need...
21:06A mental blank.
21:08I know it, Cass.
21:09I just can't remember it.
21:10A big exam.
21:11This is your first truly important hurdle in academic lives.
21:14And an opportunity.
21:16I've got a copy of the maths exam.
21:18Will he take it?
21:18What?
21:19Yes.
21:20Oh no, my friend.
21:21Will he give in to temptation?
21:23Home and away tomorrow and coming soon.
21:27I love him.
21:28I hate him.
21:29How could he betray me with that tart?
21:32What happened that night?
21:34Headland is coming.
