Transcript
00:00Closer each day
00:04Home and away
00:08You threw my name in the mud
00:09and it's going to stay there until you find
00:11whoever was driving the car that actually did it
00:13Right now, there's nothing more we can do
00:16Unless new evidence comes to life
00:18It's over
00:18Thanks for coming
00:19No worries, what's going on?
00:21I woke up one day and it was hanging by a thread
00:23Someone must have hit me in the parking lot
00:25David Hyde, you know that red mute you've been looking for?
00:30I think you've found it
00:30You're back on full duties
00:32Okay, thank you
00:33Give you more time to train the new cunts
00:35Congrats on having the restricted duties lifted
00:37You never did get around to telling me why you were on the
00:40Sorry, I couldn't help
00:42In what universe do you think it's okay for you to look up my personal file?
00:45I just wanted to know what you've done to get in trouble
00:47This is a serious disciplinary offence
00:53It would be a baby shower and gender reveal mashup
00:56I mean, what's not to love?
00:57And if we're going to find out the gender then we might as well celebrate it
01:01Correction, Levi and I will be finding out the sex of our baby
01:04You are dreaming if you're thinking you're going to be able to keep it a secret
01:07Need I remind you that no one even knew I was pregnant the entire first trimester
01:13But it would be so fun
01:15I mean, have you seen those clips online of the gender reveal parties?
01:18Oh, those clips, like the one with the blue firework that explodes in the dad's face
01:22Or with the giant helium balloon that takes the toddler off into the air
01:26Those ones
01:27Well, yes
01:28Yes, but obviously ours would be much safer than that
01:30I wouldn't let anything like that happen, I promise
01:32Because it's not happening
01:34Ah, okay, help me out here
01:35Don't you think Mac and her bump deserve a fuss?
01:39You're staying out of this
01:41Good choice, Marley
01:42You know what, all that I'm saying
01:44All I'm saying is that if we're going to have a baby shower
01:46We might as well reveal the gender at the same time
01:48I never said I wanted a baby shower
01:49Okay, I don't want any of this
01:50I'm sorry, it's just not my thing
01:57Nice try
01:58This is not over
02:04Strong?
02:05Just how you like it
02:10Dear
02:11Do you want the tea or
02:12You're lucky I'm not going straight to Sarge about this
02:15You mean I need to respond to a call
02:17Is there anything I can help with?
02:19If there was, you'd know about it
02:21Terry, with me
02:26Look, for what it's worth, I'm sorry
02:29I didn't mean to offend you
02:31It's not about my feelings
02:33I just wanted to know why you're on restricted duties
02:36My curiosity got the better of me
02:37It's the cop in me
02:38You know, you get that
02:40Right?
02:41We can't help it
02:42We have the urge to find answers
02:43Not by breaking police protocol
02:46Well, weren't you the one who said being a cop is about making judgment calls?
02:51Balancing the rules with your own moral compass
02:52If your moral compass is telling you to spy on your colleagues
02:55Then we've got bigger problems
02:59Are you going to snitch to Sarge?
03:03Jury's out
03:08How much longer?
03:10I know
03:12Your engine's looking good
03:15Just got to check your tyre pressure
03:17Is this really necessary?
03:19My boss is already very angry at me for being late
03:22When was the last time you had your car serviced?
03:25Oh, like I said, I've been busy
03:27Well, you need to have it checked regularly
03:30Every 10,000k
03:32Yes, alright, thank you
03:33I'll remember that next time
03:35Mm-hmm
03:47What's going on?
03:48I'm Sergeant Langham
03:49Could I see some identification, please?
04:00What exactly is the problem?
04:03Mrs. Armento, can you tell me what happened to your passenger side of Mira?
04:08You called the cops on me?
04:11It's okay
04:12Just answer the question, please
04:14Well, like I told the mechanic
04:16I woke up one day and it was like that
04:19Some hot head probably clipped me
04:23Would you be willing to come to the station?
04:26Excuse me?
04:27We'd like to ask you some questions about a recent accident
04:30But I haven't been in an accident
04:33We do have the right to decline
04:35You're not under arrest
04:37But we would really appreciate your cooperation
04:45Okay, just take a second
04:47I count all of the aunts and uncles and friends
04:49That are going to be in this baby's life
04:51You know, shouldn't they have the opportunity to share the love?
04:53Have you finished the wine stock take?
04:55No, but that's not as important
04:57Yes, it is
05:01Hi, coffee?
05:02Thanks
05:04How's Tana?
05:05Yeah, he's with Harper and Archie
05:07Which means I could come here and catch up on everything
05:09It's actually a blessing in disguise
05:11Because I didn't want to be anywhere near Archie
05:13While he was learning to play the drum that you got him
05:17It'll be your bum on the drum soon too
05:19I think it's different when it's your own
05:21I feel like my child will be a complete natural
05:23Obviously
05:25Obviously
05:25Okay, you wouldn't have to do anything
05:27I would organise the whole thing
05:28Just like Eden's hands
05:29Just say the word
05:31I've got a word
05:31Stop take
05:36So
05:37On to the even more important things
05:39I have got a few ideas for the nursery mural
05:43Oh, no, no
05:45Is something wrong?
05:47Let's do that downstairs
05:48I don't want to play favourites
05:50I mean, I don't
05:52I mean, I don't
05:52I don't want to go off the country
05:53Me playing favourites
06:00I'm not being too harsh
06:01Your baby
06:02You're cool
06:04Thank you
06:16Hey
06:18Where's Alf?
06:19I'm not sure
06:20I solved the case
06:22What are you talking about?
06:23Got a call out this morning to a red ute
06:25One with a busted side mirror
06:27It's the one responsible for Abby's accident
06:29Does David know?
06:31Yeah, he's taking the driver down the station
06:32That is amazing
06:34Oh, it's incredible, eh?
06:35So, is the driver being charged?
06:37Well, I don't know
06:37She's being questioned now
06:38And are you sure she's the one responsible?
06:41Absolutely
06:42When I started asking her about the side mirror
06:45She just got weird
06:47But did she confirm how it was damaged?
06:49What?
06:50No, she didn't outright confess
06:51Anyway, I'm going to go and find Alf and tell him
06:53Whoa
06:54Hold up
06:55All we know is that the driver's being questioned, correct?
06:58Yeah
06:58Okay, last time I checked
07:00You were innocent until proven guilty
07:01This is how this whole problem started
07:03Everyone was way too quick to blame Alf
07:06It's red ute
07:07It can't be a coincidence
07:08Can you just let David do his job, right?
07:11We don't want to get Alf's hopes up
07:12And then we get it wrong
07:17You want me to get her vehicle to forensics?
07:20Let's see what she has to say first
07:21This could clear Alf
07:23You don't really think she did it
07:25I mean, she looks totally harmless
07:27We never judge on appearances, Constable
07:31Can you bring some water, please?
07:32I'll see you in there
07:39So we're just supposed to forget about the driver we've already identified?
07:42The grumpy old man who shouldn't even be on the road?
07:45Alf Stewart wasn't charged
07:46It doesn't make sense
07:47We pulled that bloke over for two driving offences
07:51I mean, he's obviously guilty
07:52Enough, Richie
07:59It's just one of those, uh, moral compass things
08:02Sorry?
08:04Covering for your mate
08:05No
08:06No, we're following evidence
08:07Keep telling yourself that
08:10You're done for the day
08:11You can go home
08:13My shift doesn't finish for ages
08:14I only tell Sarge you're sick
08:15Just go
08:41Hi
08:41Hey
08:42Wasn't expecting to see you yet
08:44Me neither
08:45I got sent home early for work
08:48Okay, well let me get you something to eat
08:50And we'll talk about it, yeah?
08:52You're the best
08:55Yeah, I know
08:57Any chance you could grab me a beer?
08:59On one condition
09:01You let me show you the baby shower scrapbook I've been working on
09:03You'd be doing me a favour
09:04I might have to get my mind before
09:06Okay, come on
09:08Can you tell us if you were travelling on Murray Road
09:11In the early hours of the 15th?
09:14Um
09:15It's a Tuesday
09:16I don't, I don't know
09:18Let me check my calendar
09:27Yeah, I was
09:28I had a late shift at Reefton Lakes Leagues Club
09:32And I drove that way home
09:36What's, what's all this about?
09:38Well, a young woman was hit by a car on the side of the road
09:42Your red ute matches the vehicle description given to us by the victim
09:47Wait, what are you talking about?
09:49Did someone get hurt?
09:51Yes
09:52And the damage to your passenger side mirror indicates that you've hit something
09:56Oh my god
09:58I thought I just clipped a car
10:02Sorry, are you saying you're responsible for the accident?
10:07The engine light on my car, it's been blinking on and off
10:10And I, um, I remember that I looked down on it
10:13And I felt the car hit something
10:15But I thought that I just hit a car that was parked on the side of the road
10:20It was, it was really dark
10:21I didn't even know that somebody was there
10:24This woman, is she, is she okay?
10:26Fortunately, it was only a grace
10:29I really didn't know
10:31I'm really sorry
10:36I really like the colours here
10:38Yep
10:39I, uh, just wanted to say thanks for inviting me to, uh, Archie's party
10:43Oh, Alf, we were so happy to have you there
10:46Well, I would have been a mug to miss it
10:47Oh, you made it in the end
10:49We know you've been through a lot lately
10:52Yeah
10:52Well, you know, you only get one shot at these milestone events
10:56I reckon we've got to cherish them
10:57Hmm
11:00Alright
11:01So, you pick your favourite
11:04Let me know what size you'd like it to be
11:06And I'll get started
11:12Good choice
11:13I think it says family
11:16You alright?
11:18Do you think I'm going to regret not having a baby shower?
11:21No
11:22I think you will regret having Abigail's baby shower
11:26She's right about one thing
11:28You deserve to be excited
11:35Yeah
11:37Charged Mrs. Armento
11:38That's a copy of her signed statement
11:40I'm relieved we finally have a result
11:43Can't wait to give Alf the good news
11:45Yep
11:47Where's Richie?
11:49Sent him home
11:50Why?
11:52Come on, I thought you two had turned a corner
11:54Well, that was until you accused us of doing our favours
11:57Basically implied we're corrupt
12:00Right
12:00I'll deal with that later
12:02I'm going to go and talk to Alf first
12:03Oh, Sarge, there's something else you should know
12:05Look, if this is about changing shifts again
12:08Forget it
12:09Look, I know Richie
12:11He's a lot to handle
12:12But he has good intentions
12:16Yeah, you're right
12:18I'll try to remember that
12:21Last night he gives me this lecture on
12:23Trusting my instincts and following a moral code
12:25Even if it's against police rules
12:27And then today
12:28I bend the rules
12:29To do one tiny thing
12:31And he has a go at me for it
12:32That's not fair
12:33And then I express an opinion about your case
12:35And he tears me a nail
12:37Unbelievable
12:39Alf Stewart is responsible for your accident
12:41I'd bet my life on it
12:44Hey, you know that I'm okay, right?
12:47You don't have to keep fighting and fighting for me
12:51I need to pretend like I'm working
12:53It'll get you another one
12:56There you go
12:58Let me know when you're ready to order food
13:01Hey, hi
13:02How can I help you?
13:03I'm looking for Alf
13:04He wasn't downstairs
13:08Excuse me
13:10Sarge, I don't know what Cash told you
13:12Be down and come with me
13:14Sarge, that's an order
13:17Is everything alright?
13:19No, it is not
13:27What is going on?
13:28Well, I assume it has something to do with Richie drinking in uniform
13:31No, but he finished his shift
13:33I don't think that matters
13:42Do I have to remind you of the Force's code of conduct?
13:45Or were you sick the day they taught that at the academy?
13:49Oh, this is bad
13:52Wait for me outside
13:56Yes, Sarge
14:01Hey, mate
14:02Bit of a problem with the young bloke
14:04He's just, um, very green
14:08I guess we all were once
14:11I was looking for you, actually
14:12Oh, yeah?
14:14We found the driver responsible for the accident
14:18You're kidding
14:19You're kidding
14:19She made a full confession
14:21Your name's been cleared out
14:22That's the best news I've had in a long, long time
14:27I can't thank you enough
14:29And I'll thank Justin
14:30He was the one who gave us the lead
14:32It's a good result
14:54Sorry I sent you home
14:55But you've got to start thinking before you open your mouth
14:57That is the least of my problems
14:58What's going on?
15:01Mate, I screwed up
15:03Sarge called me having a beer in my uniform
15:10Enjoy that conversation
15:13He's all yours
15:16Let me make myself very clear
15:19Because unlike you
15:20I am familiar with our code of conduct
15:24Drinking in uniform is a serious disciplinary offence
15:27I could fire you right here, right now
15:29Is that what's going to happen?
15:30Because Sarge, I promise I'll never make that mistake again
15:32I love this job
15:34I was having a bad day
15:35Enough, Richie
15:39I am prepared to give you a second chance
15:41This is your first and final warning
15:45Thank you, Sarge
15:46Trust me
15:46You put one foot wrong
15:48I will bounce you out so fast you won't see it coming
15:52Do I make myself clear?
15:54Yes, Sarge
15:55Crystal
16:00Let's go
16:02Um, Table Nine wants a bottle of pasta and a bowl of wine
16:06Okay, do you want to try that again?
16:08What if Richie gets fired?
16:09You have no idea how much being a cop means to him
16:14David caught her boyfriend drinking in uniform
16:17Boyfriend?
16:20Yeah, but it's still really new
16:29Crisis averted
16:31Guess Dave is not as scary as he seems
16:34It's lucky
16:36Oof
16:37Here we go again
16:39Are you alright?
16:40Yeah, yeah, yeah
16:41It's just this baby is doing some results today
16:43Do you want to sit down?
16:44No, no, I'm alright
16:45Do you want to feel?
16:46Yes, please
16:52You know what I'm going to say
16:53Does it start with a B and end in the shower?
16:55This baby is a miracle
16:58Let's celebrate it
17:03She's got a point
17:07Shall I have coffee, baby?
17:08No, you wound up enough
17:11Well, here he is
17:14Mate, thanks for being on my side
17:16David finally told you
17:18Yeah, he said you were the man I had to thank
17:20He has been desperate to tell you about it all day
17:22I didn't want to get your hopes up
17:24You never doubted me throughout this entire thing
17:28And that means a lot
17:29Of course, mate
17:31I just wanted to say thank you
17:36I thought he'd be happier
17:40Yeah, me too
17:46It's kind of been a tough few weeks
17:47Maybe he's just processing, you know
17:49Yeah
17:59So, where's Tane?
18:01He is having dinner at Harper's
18:03And your brother is still at the hospital
18:05I can change my plans with Richie for Mimi, yeah?
18:09No offence, but I'm kind of sick of you
18:10So that means you have to go and enjoy your day
18:12Mm-hmm
18:13Mm-hmm
18:18What?
18:20It's just really nice seeing you like this
18:22Mm-hmm
18:23I have a thing
18:26You have a thing?
18:27Yeah
18:28What's things?
18:29Just some ideas for the baby shower
18:32Oh
18:33Oh
18:34Oh
18:34Oh
18:34Oh
18:40Oh
18:41Essential
18:41Essential
18:42Essential
18:42Essential
18:43Essential
18:43Nappy changing
18:45Oh
18:46Yeah, this will be really fun
18:50Babysitter wars
18:51Yes
18:52So we can prove to you
18:53Who will be the best babysitter
18:54Heads up
18:55I will win
18:56Mm-hmm
18:56Of course
18:58When did you do this?
19:01I've just been collecting some ideas
19:02Since I found out I was going to be an auntie
19:04Oh
19:05That's really sweet
19:06Thank you
19:10All I ask is that you consider it
19:16You look beautiful
19:18You look really handsome
19:20Hey, I am so sorry about serving you baby
19:23Oh, hey, no
19:23That is not your fault
19:25If anything, you were the only good thing about today
19:34Hey, I'm going to leave my phone on
19:36In case you need anything, okay?
19:37I won't
19:38But thank you
19:39Enjoy your night
19:41Bye
19:47Okay
19:49Alright, Bob's
19:51What do you reckon?
19:52Do you want to see Daddy do a karaoke lullaby challenge?
19:56I mean, does anyone?
20:02All I'm saying is perhaps I should moonlight as a private investigator
20:06Or at least get a badge
20:07How about you get one new business off the ground at a time?
20:13I think we should check in
20:18Eating alone, mate
20:20There's no law against it, is there?
20:23I thought you'd be celebrating with Brew and Marilyn
20:26Well, obviously I'm not
20:29What did Brew say when she found out you were cleared?
20:32I haven't told her
20:34Why not?
20:37Because she thinks I'm a silly old galah who doesn't know which ends up
20:42Alf, no, she doesn't
20:43But I have learnt a few home truths during this whole thing
20:49I mean, when the chips are down
20:52Why wouldn't my own daughter back me?
21:09Why don't we do like a fun lazy day?
21:11We go up the coast and lay on a beach somewhere
21:14Yeah?
21:15Yeah
21:16You'd really choose your girlfriend over your oldest mate
21:18Yeah, I would
21:20I guess if he's having a crisis, then you should go
21:24I'll take you later
21:24All right
21:25I hope he feels better
21:33Is he out there on the balcony with you?
21:34No, I thought he was with you
21:36No
21:36No
21:36No
