(HELICOPTER WHIRRS)
HEIDl: Dean, this is Rescue Helo. Coming in over the car yard now.
I'm not picking up any body heat.
Nothing's coming up on the thermal image so far.
You've clocked 50 hours. How are you gonna celebrate?
I can't afford to celebrate. All my money goes on lessons. (LAUGHS)
How about I take you out, buy you dinner?
I'll take that as a no.
Well, I didn't... I didn't say anything.
- (BEEPING) - What's that?
It's a false alarm.
Where is this guy?
CHASE: Leroy, can you hear me?
Leroy!
Come on, Rhino. You work here. You must have some idea.
Shit, I don't know. It was three in the morning. We were drunk.
Guess we go car by car if it takes us all day.
He gets asthma.
Just think, OK? There's gotta be something.
Mate, there's not. It was dark. It was the first car we came to.
- From which direction? - I don't remember.
- Great. - Wait. It was green.
The car was green.
Alright, Jordan, Chase, green cars only.
This guy's an asthmatic, so we need to get a move on.
What's that guy doing? I told him to shut it down.
Says his boss will kill him.
I'll kill him unless he shuts down. We need to be able to hear.
Rescue 1 to Rescue Helo, anything on the thermal image?
Rescue Helo. Negative, Dean.
Nothing on image yet.
- Are you sure it was this yard? - Positive.
And it was definitely green?
Mate, it was green, like that one there.
Do you know that you're colourblind?
- (SIGHS) I forgot. - Oh, he forgot!
Rescue 1 to all units.
We are now looking for a red car. I say again, a red car.
- Mate, compactor! Oi! - Shut it down!
- Oi! There's someone in there! - Hey! Shut it down! Wait, wait! Hey!
- Shut it down! - Oi! Shut it down!
- Up! Up! - We need to shut it off now.
We've got a guy trapped in one of those cars.
Alright. Go, go!
No, no, no, no, no, no. Get out, get out. Leroy!
Rescue 1 to Rescue Helo.
Heidi, check the compactor. Have you got any reading?
Wait, wait, wait. There, there, there. There.
- It's the operator. - No, no. In it. In the compactor.
Rescue Helo. Affirmative, Dean. There's a body in the compactor.
Alright. Get this car out. Get this car out! Out!
SONG: # Mmm, mmm, mmm
# Real dark and dirty
# Gonna get a little dirty, yeah
# I'm gonna get a little
# Dirty, yeah
# Gonna get a little dirty. #
DEAN: Alright, be ready with the oxygen. He could be hypoxic.
Leroy?!
Rescue 1 to Rescue Helo. Heidi, you still got a reading?
Rescue Helo. Just, Dean... it's very faint.
Alright. Pop it open.
- Leroy, we're coming for you, mate. - Leroy?
Just hang in there.
- Oh. - (CAT MIAOWS)
What about there?
This isn't gonna be pretty.
Chase, get that tool in there.
MAN: Oi! Oi! I'm in here!
Wait, wait, wait! Wait, wait.
LERO Y: (THUMPS) Is someone out there?! I'm in here!
Leroy?
- Oi! - This is it. Come on, pop it. Pop it.
- Got it? - One, two, three!
Thanks, fellas. It was getting a bit stuffy.
- Leroy Jackson. - Hey, I know you.
- (GROANS) - Watch your head.
WOMAN: Leroy. Thank heavens!
- Hey! - Oh, my God!
- I'm fine. I'm fine. - Are you in any pain?
Yeah. An ankle.
- Mate, can you look over here? - LARA: Just here?
Oh, yeah. Feels like a fracture. You need to go to hospital, get an X-ray.
LERO Y: I can't. We've got a game this arvo.
Well, you're gonna have to sit this one out. Bingo, he's all yours.
Strap him out. Wait till the ambulance gets here.
I remember now. Parra Boys, yeah?
Uh, yeah. Gary Bing. You were school captain when I started.
Private boy.
Sweetheart, couldn't call the coach for me, could you?
- Yeah. - Thanks, babe.
Hey, you're Blake's little brother. You're a good sprinter, yeah?
You got that try at the end of the year.
I've never seen anyone run like that.
(SIGHS) Aarggh!
I've lost my wallet in that whole brush-with-death thing.
(GROANS) I'll have to get onto the bank. Cancel my cards.
- That's all? - Yeah.
Hey, um, listen...
Um, you don't think I could...
Uh, don't... don't worry about it.
- You need some cash? - No, no, no.
- I couldn't ask you, mate. Seriously. - 50 bucks cover you?
(SIGHS)
Yeah, sure.
- I'll pay you back tonight. - Tonight?
Yeah. I'll shout you a few drinks to thank you for all this.
- Yeah, alright. No worries. - Awesome.
So, that means that the oil's fine, yeah?
Yeah. Well done.
About the date, Mack. You didn't give me time to answer.
You're a chopper pilot now, Heidi.
You've got a million decisions to make at once.
Weather, fuel, terrain, go or no go.
If a chopper pilot hesitates, it's a no.
Yeah, hi. It's Dean again.
When you get this message, give me a call, will you?
- Is that Annika? - Yeah.
What's the story with her, anyway? Isn't she married to that arson squad guy?
No. He's her ex.
Well, she's not returning your calls.
Maybe he's not an ex. Maybe he's a current.
Well, she's not currently wearing a ring, so in my book, that's open market.
CHASE: Hey, Bingo, toffee-nosed private school... you kept that to yourself.
Parramatta Catholic Boys?
- Poor man's private. - Private's private, mate.
Once you lock your footy captain in a boot,
it's a short road to running down the street naked
or crapping in your mate's shoe.
Copped a poo in a shoe? (LAUGHS)
Nah, nah. The guy's a legend. Should've seen him at school.
- Could've played for Australia. - Really? What happened?
- VINCE: Rescue Base to Rescue 2. - Dunno.
- Rescue 2. Go ahead. - MVA at Dural.
Chopper's on its way but they might need backup.
Yeah. Copy that. On our way.
(HELICOPTER WHIRRS)
(SIREN WAILS)
How serious do you reckon Heidi is about the chopper guy?
- Mack? - Yeah.
He's a pilot.
- Isn't he ex-SAS? - (SNORTS)
Yeah, right.
Seriously?
That's what I heard.
- That chopper's pretty hard to top. - I wouldn't give up my car for it.
(LAUGHS) Yeah, you would. Chicks dig choppers.
Why would they dig choppers? You can't pick them up for a date in one, can you?
Can you, chopper guy? Huh?
There it is.
WOMAN: (YELLS) I'm over here. Help!
Help! My kids are trapped.
Quickly. Come on!
Please.
(PANTS) He's here. OK. Someone's coming.
Come on!
Please hurry.
OK. Stay still for me. Stay still.
- My kids... - I need you to get out of there.
It's OK. I'm here to help you.
I need to check them for spinal injuries, alright?
Before we move them. Please.
- What's your name? - Lisa.
Lisa, I just need you to stay calm. Let me help them, alright?
Hi, boys. What's your names?
Rory. That's Raffy.
Hi, Raffy. Can you squeeze my hands? Good boy.
And what about wiggling your toes? That's it. Good boy.
What about you, Rory? Looks like your arm's a bit sore there.
Yeah. It hurts.
OK. Can you squeeze my other hand? Wiggle your toes.
Please, we've just gotta get them out of here.
It's OK. It's OK. Look, Raffy's fine, Rory's got a sprained arm.
Can you get them out while I check Lisa?
- I'm fine. I feel fine. - Yeah, that's good.
But you're very pale. Your pupils are dilated, alright?
Can you tell me, are you feeling any pain anywhere?
No, nothing. (GASPS) Aarggh!
- So it hurts there? - A little bit.
You're not gonna get a prize for being stoic, Lisa.
I just want to get my kids out of here. Sorry, please, just help them.
Yep. It's OK. We're getting them out. They're fine.
The kids are fine. Here we go.
Rescue Helo to Rescue Base.
We've got two patients requiring medical attention...
one child with a sprained arm,
one adult with suspected internal bleeding.
Over.
VINCE: (OVER RADIO) Copy that, Heidi. See you back at base.
Alright. I know it seems tight, but we need it like that to take off.
Oh, no. My ex. We've got to get out of here.
He's crazy. Please go.
OK. You get airborne. I'll deal with him.
- Mack, no. - Please go.
- Mack, no. No! - Just go! Don't argue.
We've gotta get out of here. He'll kill us all.
- Stop the chopper. - Listen, this doesn't concern you.
- Hurry! - T's and P's are in the green. Alright.
- Out of my way. - HEIDl: This is Rescue Helo.
Vince, we have an emergency.
VINCE: Rescue Helo, state your emergency.
- Stop the chopper! - Go! Go, go, go!
Gun down!
Drop it.
Rescue Helo, do you copy? State your emergency.
(GRUNTS)
(BANG!)
- (ALARM BLARES) - (LISA SCREAMS)
Shit!
Rescue Base to Rescue Helo. Heidi, what's going on?
Rescue Base to Rescue Helo. What's going on, Heidi?
What's happening?
The chopper's been hit by a bullet. I'm losing power. Fast.
- A bullet? Where are you? - Is she serious? She's been shot at?
Uh, we're travelling north from the MVA. Mack's back there, Vince.
There's a guy with a shotgun. I repeat... there's a guy with a shotgun.
- OK. I'm calling the police. - Get Chase and Jordan. Warn them.
Heidi, confirm that you are flying the chopper.
Confirm.
Heidi-ho, can you get to the airfield at Dural?
Negative on that, Vince. I've got to bring it down now.
- She can't land there. It's all bush. - DEAN: Rescue 2, this is Base.
Yeah. Copy that. We're five minutes from the MVA.
Approach with caution. This guy's got a gun.
Yes, we heard. Over.
DEAN: Get a visual on him before you get too close.
Any sign of danger, wait for the police.
- OK. On their way. - Police are on their way. Base out.
Heidi, you've got a patch coming up close to the river.
- (ALARM BLARES) - Come on, come on!
Yeah, yeah, I can see it!
I'm gonna try and bring it down.
Vince, I can't talk for a while. I haven't landed a B3 before.
She's been training in an R22. It's smaller and lighter.
Heidi, I'm gonna get someone on the line to talk you down.
There's no time for that, Vince.
OK. I want your heads down between your knees.
Heads down. Hold on, Lisa.
Hold on!
(GRUNTS)
Rescue Base to Rescue Helo. Heidi, can you read me?
Heidi, can you hear me?
(ALL SCREAM)
Rescue Base to Rescue Helo. Heidi, do you read me?
(STATIC)
Heidi, come in.
Rescue Base to Rescue Helo. Heidi, do you read me? Over.
- (LISA SCREAMS) - (ALARM BLARES)
(METAL SHEARS)
(SIGHS)
- Lisa? Lisa, can you hear me? Lisa? - Yeah, we're fine.
Are you guys OK? Is everyone alright?
VINCE: Rescue Base to Rescue Helo. Heidi, come in.
Base, this is Rescue Helo.
We're down. We're OK. (PANTS)
The tail rotor's gone. We're gonna need a mechanic here.
I've still got one child with a sprained arm
and one adult with suspected internal injuries.
What's your position?
Uh, I'm south 33° 42...
OK. Lives saved. Facing the music.
... 4' 23. 7".
Dean and Lara are on their way.
They'll evacuate the passengers to the closest road,
where I'll have an ambo on stand-by.
Is there any word from Mack?
Not yet. Rescue 2 should be arriving at that location any moment.
OK, guys. Let's get you out of here, alright?
What do you say?
OK, boys.
HEIDl: That was a bit of an adventure, wasn't it?
- Can we go back up in the chopper? - Ooh. Maybe not today.
Are you OK?
- Yeah, I'm fine. - No, no. You're not fine.
I'm just gonna get you to come and lie down over here, alright?
It's OK, boys. Just come this way.
- (LISA GRUNTS) - OK. OK.
Just keep breathing. Alright, down we go.
Down we go. OK.
You alright?
- Lisa, who was that guy with the gun? - That was my ex.
He wants sole custody of the kids, not that he cares about them.
He just doesn't want me to win.
Hey, Rory, do you wanna go to the chopper and get my bag for me?
Yeah.
- He can't just take them, can he? - Well, he's from New Zealand.
There's nothing to stop him getting on a plane on his access weekend.
Look, I could've done a hundred things differently...
...like get a lawyer.
But I couldn't afford one and I didn't realise how vindictive Conrad could be.
- Ow! - OK. So that's where it hurts?
- What is it? - I'm not sure.
- Do you think that he'd hurt Mack? - I don't know.
If he gets something in his head, nothing gets in his way.
OK. Just keep breathing for me. It's gonna be alright.
(SIRENS WAIL)
JORDAN: There's the car.
CHASE: There's Mack.
Hey.
- Didn't he have a gun? - Uh...
Not anymore.
- Told you he was SAS. - CONRAD: You've got it all wrong.
My wife.
No, she's mad. She's gonna kill them.
OK, mate. Just explain it to these guys.
Check it out. I've got custody. There's an AVO out on her.
Alright. Come with us, please, sir.
Check it out.
- So, what... she's pinched the kids? - JORDAN: Yeah, well, it looks like it.
The cops confirmed that the husband's got temporary custody,
but the court's waiting on a psych report on her.
He doesn't sound like Mr Innocent either.
What was he doing shooting at the chopper?
He said the gun went off by accident.
Why'd he have the gun in the first place?
It's the countvy... evevyone's got guns.
- What are the coppers doing? - Well, they're charging him.
But if he's telling the truth and she really is dangerous...
HEIDl: We're not too far from the road.
We can wait for the ambulance over here.
I'm pretty sure you've got an internal bleed.
It's probably your spleen.
How bad is it?
Look, we're gonna get a team in here to carry you out.
- Where will they take me? - To the closest hospital.
Please...
...you mustn't tell Conrad where the kids are.
Yeah. I'll make sure of it.
(MOBILE PHONE RINGS)
- Vince. - VINCE: Heidi, listen to me.
Move out of earshot of your passengers now.
It's, uh... it's a bad signal. I'll be back in a tick.
- Uh, yeah, Vince. I'm here. - I've checked with the coppers.
Lisa Hardigan has an A VO out against her.
The kids' father has a court order pending.
What?
Whatever she's told you, she's lying, alright?
It's the father who has custody.
It looks like she's tried to kidnap them back.
The police are on their way to you now.
Tvy and keep her calm. Talk to her. Indulge her.
But keep the kids away from her, alright?
Apparently, she's threatened to harm them.
Are you sure about this? She doesn't seem like the kind of woman...
Heidi?
Heidi-ho?
Heidi?
(SIREN WAILS)
VINCE: (ON RADIO) Rescue Base to all units.
Something's happened to Heidi. What's your ETA?
Yeah. Rescue 1. We're still 20 minutes away.
VINCE: Jordan.
Rescue 2 Portable. We're nearly there.
Hurvy.
Heidi.
Heidi, it's Jordan. Can you hear me?
Over here!
Heidi! Heidi?
Heidi, can you hear me?
Heidi, do you know where you are?
HEIDl: What happened?
JORDAN: When's your birthday?
Why? Did you get me something?
She's OK.
- I'm so sorry about the chopper. - MACK: Oh, forget the chopper.
- Are you hurt? - No. I'm fine. I'm fine.
Oh, no. I'm actually a little bit dizzy.
- Whoa! - Let's just stay down.
I'm so glad you're alright. I thought that guy with the gun...
I ate him for breakfast.
You did a great job getting her down.
Yeah, well, the rotor's stuffed.
Pretty hard to land with the tail rotor shot out.
CHASE: Well, they're not anywhere close by. She must've taken off.
Do you have any idea where she would've taken them?
No. But she's bleeding internally, probably at the spleen.
She couldn't have gotten too far.
- Just keep a bit of pressure there. - OK.
Thanks, Chase. I'll pass that on to Dean and Lara.
They're 10 minutes behind you.
- One psycho. Confirmed. - Heidi alright?
Oh, yeah, considering she had a rock smashed on her head.
How far does she expect to get
with two kidnapped grommets and a bleeding spleen?
Well, maybe she thinks it's worth the risk.
(LAUGHS) Oh, come on, Michelle.
Kidnapping, assaulting Heidi... there's no thinking here.
The woman's a fruitloop.
- Heidi obviously trusted her. - Heidi was wrong.
I believed everything she said, you know.
Yeah? Well, so did I.
When a guy turns up out of nowhere carrying a gun,
what are we supposed to think?
- Hey? - Yeah.
- I think I'm alright. - You sure?
Hang on. No.
- Heidi, you're not coming with us. - Yeah, I am, Jordan.
No, you're not. You've got a concussion. You need to be checked out.
I'm fine, OK? I haven't got a headache. My vision's clear.
- I'm 100%. Let's go. - What about the chopper?
MACK: I'll get it.
- Talk to you later. - See you.
Alright. Come on, you two. This way.
- You should keep that on there. - Yeah, righto. Stop fussing about it.
Come on, you two.
If anything happens to those kids...
VINCE: (OVER RADIO) Rescue 1 Portable,
head south-south-east along the Marshall bush track.
Rescue Portable 2, head south from Heidi's last known coordinates.
They can't have gone too far.
- They must've been in love once. - Yeah.
It's always great at the start. Then they have kids.
What?
No, having kids doesn't have to change things.
Yeah, of course it does.
I mean, one minute you're having wild, passionate sex
up against the refrigerator door
and the next you're cleaning up snot and vomit
and fighting over who takes out the garbage.
Then it's separation, followed by divorce,
and then kid handovers every second weekend.
But I'm sure that won't happen to you, Lara.
- CHASE: Lisa! - HEIDl: Lisa, we need to treat you!
Lisa!
Hello. Can anyone hear me?
Lisa!
(LISA GROANS)
DEAN: OK. Alright, she's on the ledge. Watch out.
- Alright. - We found her.
We're on our way.
Stay away.
Alright, Lisa, we're with Rescue.
- We're here to help you, OK? - I don't need help.
What about your kids? Where are they?
Safe. Stay away.
It's OK, Lisa. We can fix everything. Alright?
Just tell us where Rory and Raffy are.
I can't let him have them. He'll take them away forever.
Look, let's get you to hospital, get the kids somewhere safe.
You can speak to the police about this.
There's no point. No-one believes me.
He says stuff that's not true... that I'd hurt them.
I'd never hurt them.
You assaulted a rescue worker that was trying to help you.
Desperate.
Hey, Lisa, we think you may have internal bleeding, OK?
Now, if your spleen ruptures, that's not a good situation.
You're no use to your kids dead. OK?
LARA: Just tell us where they are.
- Now, I'm gonna give you a quick... - (YELLS) Stay away!
- OK. Alright, just watch your step there. - Stay back.
- You're very close to the edge. - (RETCHES)
OK. Alright, alright. Just...
- Lisa. Lisa! - Have you got her? You right?
OK, pulse is weak. Oxygen!
- JORDAN: What have we got? - Weak pulse.
Dean.
It's one of the kids.
I need gloves.
There's no way a kid would survive that.
(GRUNTS)
(HEIDI CHUCKLES)
Chase, it's not the kid.
CHASE: Copy that. I'll keep searching up top.
It's got to be Raffy's. He can't have gone too far.
- Raffy?! - Raffy?!
It's Heidi. Can you hear me?
DEAN: Alright, Lisa, can you hear me?
She's unconscious. Systolic's 90, pulse 130.
DEAN: Alright, get a line in. Get in some Hartmann's.
We'll have to carry her out of here on a spine board.
Rescue 1 to Rescue Base, over.
VINCE: (OVER RADIO) Rescue Base. Go ahead, Deano.
Yeah, we're going to need an emergency airlift here,
coordinates south 33° 40',
east 151° 4' 19.2", over.
Onto it. Did she say anything about the kids?
No, not as yet.
And she's unlikely to, either.
Heidi, did the woman give you any idea
what she intended on doing with the children?
- HEIDl: Nothing. - Do you think she'd hurt them?
No. But I didn't think she'd hurt me either.
Right, keep searching. Rescue Base out.
I was involved in this Family Court thing once
and there was this guy, seemed perfectly normal,
shot himself in the head.
Oh, thanks, Bingo. That's really helpful. Go clean the truck.
VINCE: Yeah, we need a chopper.
Yeah, mate, I know we trashed one chopper. That was an accident.
What we've got here is an emergency medivac.
(SCOFFS) You're kidding me.
Righto, we'll work on it.
Second chopper's on a job, the reserve's not operational.
- Guess why. - Am I gonna like this?
Well, they've taken off the tail rotor to replace the one on Heidi's machine.
Rescue Base to Rescue 1.
Rescue 1. What's the ETA on that chopper?
No chopper. You're gonna have to carvy her out.
I'm sending a couple of ambos to help you.
- You've got to be kidding. - That's what I said.
Long story. No time to tell it.
Nearest road is the fire trail you came in on.
Yeah, copy that. Out.
Right, prep her up.
- HEIDl: Rory? - JORDAN: Raffy?
How do you think the shoe got to the bottom of the cliff?
Do you reckon they tried to climb down?
You don't really think she would've hurt them, do you?
I don't know. Maybe if she can't have them, no-one can.
She didn't seem like that kind of woman.
They never do.
All I'm saying, you know, custody stuff... there might not be a happy ending.
Raffy?
Rory?
Phwoar!
That, Bingo, is the distinct aroma
of South American mountain-grown coffee beans.
Alright, stop. No more coffee.
No more sugar. No more wasted stationery.
No more 'everybody has their own kind of milk'.
I mean, organic soy. Who drinks organic soy?
Not me. I'm full-cream.
Right, that's it, I'm gonna sell the fridge, the coffee machine...
Sell the... No.
Yes, I'm gonna sell everything that is not pinned down.
We might be able to repay the damage to the chopper rotor in...
- I don't know. - 500 years.
BINGO: Why should Rescue have to pay anything?
Not Heidi's fault some lunatic shot her out of the sky.
She should be getting a medal.
Well, unfortunately, the Minister doesn't see it that way.
Forget it. You're right. It's not even going to dent the sides.
Enjoy your coffee, boys. I will fix it.
Who drinks organic soy?
- Dairy makes me fart. - (LAUGHS)
Rory?!
Raffy?!
We're here to help you!
DEAN: One, two, three.
- Got it? - Yep. Yep.
Straight through there.
JORDAN: Raffy?!
HEIDl: Rory?!
There he is. Jordan!
Rory?
Rory. Rory, are you OK?
It's OK. It's alright. He's my friend. His name's Jordan.
- G'day, mate. - Where's Raffy?
Mum told us to stay. He wouldn't listen. He got bored.
It's OK.
Rescue 2 Portable to all units.
We've got Rory but the second kid is still missing.
It's OK. We'll find him. Let's get you to the hospital.
- I've messed up everything. - No, this isn't your fault.
Your dad's close by. We're going to find Raffy.
And we're going to get you all out of here, alright?
- Dad? - Yeah, he's...
- Boo! - Oh, my...
- (LAUGHS) Raffy! - (LAUGHS)
- I'm hungy. - Is that right?
Can we go back up in the chopper?
Maybe we could go in the chopper tomorrow. How's that sound?
OK.
Yeah. Alright.
Are you hungy too, mate? Let's go.
Rory, Raff, come here.
JORDAN: Hey, hey, what's going on?
CONRAD: Thank you. Thank you so much.
CHASE: Apparently, it's OK.
They've charged him with the firearm offences
but he doesn't appear in court until next week.
What, so in the meantime, he gets the kids?
Yep. Crazy, huh? But he is their dad.
And the cops say it's out of their hands, it's a Family Court matter.
JORDAN: He shot at a chopper.
He says the gun went off by accident...
that he was just trying to stop the guys taking off.
- He could've killed all of us. - Yep.
Look, I'm really sorry about the gun.
I was... I lost it. I didn't know what she was going to do to them.
Thank you so much for finding them.
RAFFY: Daddy, can I have hot chips?
Mate, you can have whatever you want.
(WHEELS CLATTER NOISILY)
It's OK. They'll look after her.
You can see her in hospital when she wakes up, hey?
Thanks again.
- Would you be seeing Mum? - Maybe.
Can you tell her I'm sorry?
Hey, mate, you've got nothing to be sorry for, hey?
- Charges? - You were assaulted.
Yeah, I just wish I knew why.
I mean, she seemed normal, reasonable.
Why would she go to so much trouble to get the kids away from their dad
if she didn't have a good reason?
Not your problem, Heidi.
We pull them out, we fix them up. What they do after that, that's up to them.
If it makes you feel better, I reckon the dad was suss.
(SARCASTICALLY) It makes me feel heaps better!
Anyway, leave it in the court's hands. You know, it's their business.
I gotta go.
- Check it out, mate. - Coldplay?
Coldplay tickets. Heidi's birthday Thursday. She loves Coldplay.
You've never got me anything for my birthday.
- (PHONE RINGS) - JORDAN: When's your birthday?
Well, well, well.
Annika.
Now? Yeah, sure. On my way.
- I gotta go. - Aren't we going for a drink?
- Sorry. Better offer. - VINCE: Annika! Oh!
Fireys, mate. Can't trust them, can't put them out.
Here.
Tell, you what, though, that one... phwoar!
She's on fire.
(LAUGHS) Make an old man very happy.
- Can you just? - She would.
- LISA: Thanks for coming. - HEIDl: You should be resting.
I need to ask you a favour.
I need you to drop the assault charge.
Look, I know that you don't owe me anything,
and after everything that's happened, I...
...I'm really sorry, but that charge,
it could be really bad for me for getting my kids back.
Lisa, it's not up to me. The police laid the charges.
But you don't have to pursue it.
I don't want to get involved.
You are involved. You were there. You know what he's like.
He could take my kids away. I know it. Please.
Lisa, it was my job to get you to the hospital, OK?
- That's where it ends. - Not for me.
It doesn't end for me.
- So, you've seen me play? - Yeah, man.
I remember that last game at school. Never seen a try like it.
Yeah, good times. Hey, I got that 50 I owe you.
Everything alright, mate?
Oh, just cancelled my card, so I can't get any money out of the ATMs.
- Got to love the banks, eh? - Yeah.
Listen, keep the 50.
Thanks.
Yeah, it's a total disaster, actually.
Gotta pay my rent... today.
- Mate, I just got paid, so... - You helping me out?
Yeah, just as long as you pay me back.
Mate, as soon as I sort it out with the bank.
- You are a champion! - (LAUGHS)
Come on, I'll shout you a couple of beers.
- (PHONE RINGS) - Gary Bing.
RHINO: (ON PHONE) Bingo, have you seen Leroy?
Not since last night. We went to the pub. Thought you'd be there.
I would've if he told me where he was going or answered his phone.
He owes me 10 grand. Supposed to pay me back last night.
- $10,000? - Hope you haven't lent him money.
If you have, you can kiss it goodbye.
Why do you think I put him in the back of the boot? I'll see you later.
JORDAN: You know, I wouldn't let it get to you. It's not your fault.
I can't even believe she called you.
I can't believe Mack tied up Conrad.
Well, you didn't see the dad waving his gun around. Mack was awesome.
- Overkill. - (SCOFFS)
- He's a try-hard. - He's a try-hard? You are.
VINCE: (OVER RADIO) Rescue Base to Rescue 2.
(CLEARS THROAT) Rescue 2. Go ahead, Vince.
We've got an MVA, Blue Ridge Road, Dural.
Closest property Five Meadows.
Five Meadows? Vince, that's the dad we gave the kids back to yesterday.
That's his property name. That's where he lives.
- Send everyone! - Go! Go!
(SIREN WAILS)
Heidi, the neighbour called in the MVA. He's there at the scene.
HEIDl: Copy that. Out.
- MAN: I live next door. Please help. - What happened?
He just drove straight in like it was on purpose.
I tried to open the doors but they're stuck.
- Any kids? - I couldn't see anything.
- There's no-one at the house. - Let's go.
- Raffy? - Rory?
- Raffy?
Rory?
Rory!
(SIREN WAILS)
Are the others down there?
Not in the car. Must be in the water.
Forget the suits. Mask and snorkel. Go, go, go, go.
One, two, three. (BLOWS)
- (COUGHS) - OK, this way.
- (COUGHS) - That's it.
LARA: There's no-one there.
Alright, keep looking.
I'm going to call the police divers in.
It's just me.
Where are the others? Rory, where's Raffy?
DEAN: I'll call the police. Good job.
- New Zealand. - New Zealand?
Seems the mum was right about the dad taking off with the kids.
- Can they stop him? - Well, he's in the air.
Police have got no authority.
- He's the father, he's got custody. - Temporarily.
Surely that doesn't mean he can just take off to a foreign country.
- VINCE: Apparently, he can. - (SCOFFS)
The police aren't going to get involved at either end.
- So, how did Rory end up in the dam? - He didn't want to go, ran away.
Dad decided to cut his losses.
No point trying to drag a kid kicking and screaming through customs.
By the time Rory had got back to the house, they had long gone.
He was trying to drive to his mum.
And lost control of the vehicle. What sort of father only wants one of his kids?
- The kind who's a big prick. - Ah.
Oi, where are you off to?
I just got a text from Rhino. He's found Leroy.
What... you think he's going to give your money back?
It's worth a shot.
Chase, go with him.
This bloke's just as likely to lend him more money.
LERO Y: (THUMPS ON BOOT LID) Oi! Oi! You can't do this!
You can't do this. Come on!
BINGO: Rhino wants his money back, mate. So do I.
OK, alright. Alright.
- Not you too, Bingo? - Sorry, mate.
- Don't apologise. He owes you $1,000. - And I want my 10 grand back, mate.
- I haven't got that sort of money. - Mate, you did last night.
Jake said you won it on the trots. Where is it?
- Put it all on a race at Randwick today. - What?!
Mate, it's a sure thing. Rusty Gate. 10/1.
In an hour from now, we'll all have doubled our money.
In an hour? Ring the bookie, get it back.
- I lose 25%. - It's better than 100%.
- Reckon he'll survive that crusher? - No, no, no. OK, OK, OK.
I can't get you 10. I lost it.
I can get you six, and one's for you.
- I'm still five short. - What do you want me to do, mate?
No, no, no, Rhino, no, no.
I think I can hear that crusher starting again.
See you, Bingo, mate. Have a good one.
(LAUGHS) Oi, maybe he'll get some money back on his life insurance.
- (LERO Y SHOUTS INDISTINCTLY) - You hear something, Bingo?
- My girlfriend! My girlfriend! - Oooh.
What about who?
You've always had a thing for her. I know you have.
I'll give you Jasmine in lieu of the five grand.
- You're kidding. - Well, hang on.
What chance have I really got of getting the money back anyway?
- So have we got a deal? - Yes, Leroy. It's a deal.
(LAUGHS)
Alright, well, we are personally escorting you to that bookie.
Watch my ankle.
- You right, champ? - Ha ha ha.
- Good boy. - Very funny.
HEIDl: Hey.
- Hey. - Thanks for coming.
Um, Rory, do you want to get us a drink from the machine?
It's alright. I'll be here.
I just thought you might want this.
We found it in the back of the ute. I figured it was Raffy's.
I got a lawyer.
Finally, someone who believes me.
He said that he thinks he can get Raffy back.
The fact that Conrad took one child and not the other
shows he doesn't really care about the kids.
Well, that's great.
And then he found out about the assault charge...
the one you wouldn't withdraw...
...and that changes everything.
It'll cost a fortune. We'll be in the courts forever.
And now we're dealing with another country as well.
Well, you've got Rory at least, I guess.
You don't have kids, do you?
Raffy's his brother for life. You can't split them.
So...
So I keep fighting and it'll cost everyone.
Lisa, you hit me in the back of the head with a rock.
You'd just seen that anyone who could...
Thanks, sweetheart.
Come on, Rory, let's go.
- I'm sorry. - You've got nothing to be sorry for.
For hitting you in the head with the rock.
I didn't want to hurt you.
I was just trying to help Mum.
I can't believe he was still trying to scab 50 bucks for a cab.
- He's a good bloke. - No, he's not. He's a user.
Hey, your mate Leroy came through.
Gave me a tip on the gee-gees last night. I'm $500 richer.
- What horse? - This 10/1 thing... Rusty Gate.
Six grand at 10/1, what's that?
That's the exact kind of thing that got everyone in this mess in the first place.
Yeah, no, it was a good night.
Hey, taking it slow works for me.
That you will.
- Alright, let's go to the pub, huh? - Sorry, I've got a better offer.
You had your chance, hero.
It's because of me she can't get Raffy back.
No, it's because of Raffy's parents that all this happened in the first place.
Besides, you did what you could with what you had.
So, what are you saying?
Just trust your instincts and sometimes shit happens anyway?
Yeah. Well, what else have you got?
- So, you need a lift? - Yeah.
- (PHONE RINGS) - Whatever it is, the answer is yes.
- Heidi, doing anything Thursday? - I don't think so.
- I got some tickets... - Oh, next left, please.
Can you just drop me off at this car park?
- Yeah, sure. - Thanks.
Listen, Heidi, I know how much you like Coldplay...
- I know. It's cool, hey? - Cool?
- I thought Mack would've told you. - Told me what?
He got tickets for Coldplay tonight.
Tonight? They're playing at the Hunter.
- How are you going to get to the... - (HELICOPTER WHIRRS)
Thanks for the lift.
- Hey. - Hey.
(SIGHS)
Chase, what are you doing Thursday?
