[Rosemary]
Darling? I'm home.

Mum. You're back.

Rosemary.

-So he hasn't told you.
-Told me what?

[Rosemary]
He left me at the altar.

Rosie was better off without me.
So I bailed.

[Jack]And I went off
with Diesel, you know,

to the back of beyond.

-Hello?
-Are you tryna finish me off?

Till some mad English woman
crashed into me.

Face it, mum. We are never
going to know why dad

lied about being in Australia.

Oh, yes, we will.

If I have anything
to do with it.

[Rebecca on phone]
Will you please come home, mum?

Whatever you're looking
for out there,

it's not going
to bring dad back.

[Joan] I need to find out
what he was hiding from me.

Hey!

Mum?

Rebecca!
What are you doing here?

I'm not ready to tell her
about it. Not yet.

She adored her father.

Now he's a murderer.

[theme music]

-What're you looking at?
-Oh.

I was just asking Jack
about himself.

No fixed address.
A couple of ex-wives.

-2.5 to be precise. Mm-hm.
-2.5?

Well, this is why
she's a good GP.

Very scientific mind.
Likes to know all the facts.

Like her mum.

So you're one of those Jack
Kerouac, on the Road kinda guys.

You lost me.
Who's Jack Kerouac?

Wow. Well, I am melting.

[Joan]There's an ice pack
in the freezer.

Well all I can say is thank
heavens for Find My Phone.

[Rebecca]I would never have
found you otherwise.

You enjoying the third degree?

I am, actually.

Do you ever miss being
settled in one place?

You mean like now?

Feels like London
was a lifetime away.

How can that happen
in just a few months?

Well, that's life
on the road for you.

Oh, sweet relief!

-Try it on the back of the neck.
-Oh, right.

So, Osprey Falls.
What do we know?

Well, not much.

The trail that your dad left
goes cold after that.

So no idea what we'll find or
what the daft idiot was up to?

No.

[eerie music]

Hello!

-Hello!
-Who are you talking to?

That little girl.
Didn't you see her?

-What little girl?
-Hello? Come on.

Hey.

You stay there.

Hello. Hello, little girl?

Hello?

-She was all alone.
-What did she look like?

Oh, extraordinary. She had red
hair and a white dress.

[Joan]
We can't leave her out here.

Maybe she's lost, she's wandered
away from her family.

-What a terrifying prospect!
-I'll check up on her.

Maybe she got scared,
she's hiding somewhere.

-Mum, stop.
-We can't leave her here.

What about the snakes
and the stingy-bitey things

like in the documentaries?

She was right by the road.

[Jack]No sign of her.

I know I saw her. I'm sure.

Don't look at me like that.
I know what I saw.

Yeah, no one's saying
you didn't.

I just think it would be
understandable, mum.

You know, with every...all the
stress with dad--

-I know what I saw.
[Jack]Look.

Kids around here know the bush
like the back of their hands.

She's probably gone home.

-Right. Let's go.
-Come on.

[exhales]

[theme music]

♪ Oh oh ohh! ♪

♪ Oh oh ohh! ♪

[vocalizing]

[Joan]You will let me know
if someone reports her missing?

Oh, no, I know it's not
the police's job,

it's just that
I'm very concerned.

Alright. I see.

Yeah. Thank you.

No report of a missing girl.

We'll see if the ranger
knows anything

when we check on Ian's booking.

Dad planned to stay here?

This was his last known
whereabouts before--

His body was found. Yes.

[instrumental music]

"Back tomorrow at 9:00 a.m."

It's not even 5 o'clock. Sod it.

Well, we'll check with him
first thing in the morning.

-Wait, are we staying here?
-Yep.

Well, no offence,
but the Kirkhopes

are not camping people.

-Your mum is.
-Yeah.

I'm grown quite fond of it.

Let's go.

You're not going to believe
this, but Trip Advisor

gives the shower block
four stars.

Yeah, well, it's got water.

Not that I can see dad coming
all the way out here,

even for
the highly-rated plumbing.

He's the meat
and three veg-type.

He was.

[Jack]Yeah, well, it's
probably a geologist thing.

You know, there was plenty of
mining around here in the day.

Why don't you try out
those famous showers?

-Rinse off the day.
-Great idea.

Here you are. Key.

Oh, God. Yeah, right.

You can tell her.

When the time's right.

I know, I'm a big chicken.

[exhales]

You know, she thinks that
something's going on between us.

-She say that?
-Doesn't need to.

[Beau]Happy Birthday, Clay.

[laughs]

[Pam]Happy Birthday, bub.

That was lovely.
You've got a beautiful voice.

-Ah, no.
-Ah, she's too modest.

[Jamie]Little fella's got
a decent set of pipes, too.

Say hello to the nice people,
Clay.

Give him a minute.

Hello.

-G'day.
-Hey, there he is.

Oh, please, come on in,
have a seat.

Oh no, we don't want
to crash your party.

But we will.

-Great.
-I'm Joan.

-Jack.
-I'm Pam.

My boy, Beau.

And his son Clay.

And my daughter-in-law
Tegan, and--

Ex-daughter-in-law.

Beg your pardon. Force of habit.

I'm Jamie Matthews.
Tegan's fiancé.

Nice to meet you.

[mumbles]

-So, whose birthday is it?
-That'd be the big fella.

-Oh, happy birthday.
-Happy birthday, mate.

Yeah, double digits today.

You ready for your
super surprise?

-Yes, yes, yes!
-Beau, Beau. Just hang on a sec.

Hey, mate, there's just
a few bits and pieces

the adults need
to iron out first. Alright?

Come on. He's big enough.

You know what
we're concerned about.

Jamie's concerns.

Please! Please! Please!

If you promise
to be extra-careful.

I will, I really will.

[Jamie]
Tegan, we spoke about this.

Well, the horse has
already bolted, hasn't it?

See, mate, this is what
happens when he comes home

from being with you.
You let him get too wound up.

Beauty. We're on.

[Pam]Ahh, don't mind these
two locking horns.

[motorcycle revving]

That is no cricket set.

[Joan]It sure isn't.

You know Clay's obsessed
with motorbikes.

Beau's been doing it up for
months. It means a lot to him.

He's buying Clay's affection.

Making up for the time
he was away.

Jamie!

-Did you see the koalas?
-No.

[Pam] Look what I got you!

Ride now, please?

Nah, mate, we just gotta go over
a couple of rules first, okay?

Ride now! Ride now!

-Wait, bub, soon.
-What'd I just say?

-What's with the young fella?
-Clay?

He's on the spectrum.

-Autism.
-Right.

[Beau]Come on, mate,
don't be the fun police.

He's just trying to do
the best things for Clay.

-And I'm not.
-That's not what I said.

Clay does best with structure,
okay, and specific--

And he loves motorbikes.
Always has. Haven't you, mate?

-Please?
-Settle down, bub.

[Jamie]I told you,
it's a bad idea.

[Beau] I don't have to ask your
permission to be his dad.

Yeah, actually, you do.

Okay? The courts made us
primary careers for a reason.

-Alright?
-You're a tosser.

[Jamie] Go on then,
make a big deal about it

on your son's birthday, huh?
Go on!

-On his birthday?!
-Stop it! Both of you!

[Tegan]Clay!

We can't just have
one nice weekend together?

Feel for Tegan, trying to keep
those boofheads happy.

Blended families. With all your
ex-wives, you must be an expert.

Not me.

When Liz's mother remarried,

I couldn't stand the idea
of another bloke

being her father, replacing me.

I don't think Liz would've
thought you were replaceable.

Tony, that was his name,
he used to take her

to violin practice,
and basketball.

I was never that dad.

'Cause of your job.
Being in the force.

Being a cop's not a 9 to 5 job.

Families pay the price for that.

From what I saw, Liz loves you.

Must've done something right.

I hope so.

[Rebecca]Mum, come and say hi
to your grandchildren.

[Joan]Hello, my lovelies!

The recital was great,
and everybody was looking at me,

and everybody was clapping.

And we were all doing so well

until Idiot Features
here farted.

-Charlee!
-It was funny.

Farts are pretty funny.

Go and watch TV, kids.

-Bye, nana.
-Bye, nana.

Bye, squirt, bye, titch!

So how are you, Bex?

Are you loving it?

Well, there is a lot of nature,
I will say that.

And it's properly hot.

And we haven't got eaten
by anything, so that's good.

-Not yet.
-Excellent news!

Because I got you both on that
flight tomorrow night, I mean,

the travel agent had to pull
some strings but--

Tomorrow night?

Well you said you weren't sure

what you were doing out here,
so--

Yes, but I'm a grown
woman Rebecca,

I can make my own decisions.

This is about
you moving on with Jack.

Moving on?

Why don't you call me back
once you've had a chat.

You've got no idea what's going
on between me and Jack.

It's obvious, mum.

Nothing's happened
between us, and anyway,

it would be none of your
business if it had.

All while scouring the Outback
to find out where your husband

died in a country that
he wasn't supposed to be in.

Oh, yes, perfectly normal,
nothing to see here.

This attachment with Jack,
I just don't think

it's a very good idea
considering everything

that dad has put you through.

Put us through.

What about home?
What about the kids?

Oh, so this is all about
needing your free babysitting.

-Is that what you think?
-Oh, look.

I don't think you even care
what ever it is I think.

I'm talking about
the life you love.

Your garden, your friends,

volunteering at the hospital,
going to the theatre.

Well all of those things will be
there when I get back.

If I still want them.

You are coming home?

Look I'm not making
any plans yet.

You know, being here, it's...

it's helping me to think.

The skies, the light,
the vast landscapes--

Carjackers kidnapping you
by accident.

This country, it's not like
I expected it would be.

It's...magical.

Well, look,
this stuff with dad, you know,

whatever he was doing out here.

How does that fit into this

Crocodile Dundee
awakening of yours?

That's why I can't leave yet.

We both deserve those answers.

And if you can't get them?

Well, I will have done
everything I can.

I think I'm going to turn in.

Rebecca.

It's jet-lag. I'll be fine.

[sighs]

I'm guessing you heard
all of that?

She's worried about you.

You know, struggling with
what's happened to her dad.

You running
all over the country.

It's understandable.

Did you hear me say I wasn't
ready to go back home yet?

And I'm not surprised.

[slow instrumental music]

Nothing like a roaring fire,
is there?

-Our secret.
-Is it not allowed then?

It's a little bit
of a grey area.

Ah.

Even better.

Oh, wow.

[Joan]The stars are really
something out here, aren't they?

Yeah. You mob call it
the Milky Way.

But we call it Emu Dreaming.

You see? There's the head,
two long legs.

And the little tail,
you see that?

Oh, yes, I can see it.

Emu Dreaming.

It's good to look up
once in a while.

Puts all the crap down here
into perspective.

-How's Clay?
-Oh, he's in a bad way.

-Still not talking.
-And when was he diagnosed?

I'm a nurse.

When he was little.

He's always had his own
special way of doing things.

And two dads to worry about him.

Yeah, I could knock
their heads together.

I can see how that
would be tempting.

Look, there, you're all toasted.

Look at that, yum. Thank you.

Have you heard about...

a young girl gone missing?

Not that I know of. Why's that?

I must've been seeing things.

[slow instrumental music]

[birds chirping]

[Joan]Pam told me
there's a waterfall upstream.

Well, as long as there's
coffee when we get there...

Oh, it's better than coffee.

Oh, wow. That is as advertised.

[laughs]

-Let's go up the top.
-What?

-Come on.
-Mum.

[uplifting music]

-Let's jump. Why not?
-What?

Because that's mental.
Look how far down it is.

We could jump together.

-Who are you?
-I'm living in the moment.

-You have absolutely lost it.
-Come on. Try it.

When are you and I ever gonna
have a chance to do this again?

Ready? Steady? Go!

[shouting]

[music continues]

[Rebecca] Six months ago, you
wouldn't even catch the tube,

now look at you.

You can see why
I'm in no hurry to come home.

I think he's good for you.
Jack. I like him.

I like him too.

He helped me a lot.

In retracing dad's steps?

And with my grief.

When I first got here,
I was disoriented,

and Jack kept me grounded.

He's like, as they say here,
no bullshit.

Very much as advertised.
It's refreshing.

He's no replacement
for your dad, of course.

-No one could be.
-Perhaps someone should be.

You don't mean that.

All those lies.
How could he do that to us?

Your father loved you.

Fiercely.

Fake identities
and secret Australian trips.

Who knows what else
he was up to?

What? What have you found out?

There's no easy way
to tell you this,

but it's about your father.

[sobbing]

[slow instrumental music]

It was the hardest thing.

I'm sure.

Good you did it.

Ian led us here.
And I need to know why.

-Morning.
-Good morning.

-Have you seen Clay?
-What, he's not with you?

No, he's not in there.

Jack, have you seen Clay?

-No, why? What's happened?
-We can't find him.

[Pam]Bub?

-Where are you, bub?
-Clay!

-Clay! Where are you?
-Bub?

-Where are you, Bub?
-The motorbike's gone too.

He was really upset
about the fighting.

What if he's crashed the bike
and he's hurt himself?

Where would he go?

There's a picnic spot nearby

and another place we go
to get yabbies.

-Well, let's start there.
-Okay.

Where are Jamie and Beau?

Jamie went to fuel up earlier
this morning, and Beau...

Well, his van's still here.

Oh, maybe he's gone for a run.

-Picnic spot, let's go.
-Okay. We can take my car, hey?

Yeah. I'm coming too.

No, you should stay here
in case he comes back.

-No, he's my son.
-No.

I'll wait with you.
Somebody's got to stay here.

The ranger won't be here
for an hour.

I think you gotta call
the police.

No police. Unless we have to.

Okay, come on.

Come on, let's sit down.

I'll get you some water.

[Beau's voicemail]Hi, this is
Beau. Leave me a message.

Clay done something
like this before?

He runs off if he's under
stress. It's a coping thing.

How were Jamie and Beau
last night?

Terrible. It's why Jamie
wanted to leave early.

How long they been together,
Tegan and Jamie?

A while.

They meet when Beau was inside?

How did you know?

Ex-cop.

You know, Beau does his best.

He's missed a lot.

Jamie isn't perfect,

but he does think
of Clay as his own,

and that drives
Beau up the wall.

And then Beau overcompensates.

And then Jamie arcs up,
and around and around it goes.

I was hoping this weekend
would be a fresh new start.

-How far along are you?
-12 weeks.

Oh, that's wonderful.
Congratulations.

And hasn't the baby
helped settle

Jamie's issues with Beau?

Oh, no.

They had a fight last night.

-You're lying!
-Chill out. Chill out.

[Tegan]Jamie told Beau
that we're having a baby.

It's not exactly
how I wanted Beau to find out.

-And Clay heard them.
-Yeah.

Clay can't deal with arguments.

Any loud noises, actually.

That's what's gonna make it
hard to find him.

He'll hide from strangers
that are looking for him.

Is it possible
that Beau took off with Clay?

No. He wouldn't.

He knows that Clay needs me.

But Beau hasn't been seen
since Clay went missing.

Nothing's here.
Oh, bub, where are you?

No motorbike tracks in or out.
Anywhere else he could be?

-I don't know.
-Don't wanna call the police?

Those boys would never hurt
Clay, I'm telling you.

The sooner we get help
the better.

[sighs]

He'll wanna be found.

He'll leave some kind of trail.

[phone ringing]

-Hi. Anything?
-No, not yet.

I'm just a bit worried about
what Tegan's told me about Beau.

[Jack on phone]She thinks he
might've done something to Clay?

She's certain that
he'd never take him.

But that temper of his.

[Jack on phone]
Same with Jamie.

Well he's not answering his
phone either.

Well, they're both missing,
that's great.

Oh, Jack. You gotta get here.
Jamie's arrived.

[Jack on phone]
Clay with him?

No.

Okay. Pam? Let's go.

[instrumental music]

[Pam]Where've you been?
-You were fishing?

At the Weir.

Tegan said you were putting fuel
in the car, wanted to leave.

-I did, but I went fishing.
-Change of plans.

Phone not working?

It's probably in my jacket
from last night.

Why am I getting questioned?

My grandson's missing.
Jack's just trying to help.

Trying to get a timeline, mate.

"Missing?" He's pissed off
on a motorbike

he shouldn't have been given.

That is what happened?

He is okay?

He's not at the yabby hole.
Got any other ideas?

-Where's Beau?
-He's missing too.

-Bloody hell.
-He wouldn't take Clay.

He wouldn't hurt him,
he just wouldn't.

He does have that temper.

-What do you mean?
-It's a different situation.

Is that why he was put inside?

This guy I dated after we
split up, before I met Jamie.

Beau got jealous
and he got pretty violent.

This is a completely
different situation.

Beau's a good dad.

Tegan's right.
He wouldn't hurt Clay.

He's still not
answering his phone.

You need to talk to the police.

Clay!

-Clay!
-Clay!

The local ranger has his
team scouting to the West,

and search is underway here

and here,
and teams are looking at

old mine shafts here and here.

You think he might've fallen
down one of them?

There's so many old mines
that they're not even mapped.

-It's a big worry.
-We searched this area here.

No tracks.
But Clay knows that area.

Since he was little.

Lost kids generally look
for a landmark.

Usually something that
they know, but sometimes

it's a river,
sometimes it's a road.

Clay might look for
an enclosed space of some kind.

To feel safe.

-Away from the world.
-Yeah.

Right, so we are searching
a radius that is determined

by how far he could travel
on the available fuel.

And we need to find him
before nightfall.

-That's only a few hours.
-Let's go.

We'll get him.

How high-functioning is Clay?

It's possible, given his autism,

that he could hide
from his rescuers.

Well, the sounds of the
helicopters and vehicles too.

He likes music. He was
singing when we met him.

If he is a hider, you may need
to brush up on your singing.

Ha ha.

-Let's go.
-Are you sure?

-I'd rather keep busy.
-Alright.

[helicopter whirring]

Clay! Clay!

-Can you hear me?
-Clay!

Nobody saw or heard Clay
ride away from the campsite.

Which means that isn't
necessarily what happened.

Maybe Beau or even Jamie,

could've taken off
with him and the bike.

But I can't imagine either
of them hurting him.

More likely to hurt
each other, I'd say.

-Yeah.
-Clay!

Maybe Beau and Clay
are off somewhere together

having innocent
father and son time.

But then why not tell Tegan, or
at least answer the telephone?

Two kids missing in two days.

Well, you said you saw someone.
You did.

I'm just a mad Englishwoman.

When I called this in,
there was no report

of a missing red-headed girl.

Then what did I see?

Things happen out here. Things
that aren't easy to explain.

[woman 1]
Where are you, Clay?

I'm going to higher ground

You stay along here, yeah?

-Okay.
-Good.

[woman 2]
Clay, can you hear us?

[man 2]
Clay! Clay!

Clay! Clay!

Can you hear me?

[instrumental music]

Clay?

Stop. Wait. Over there.

Is it Clay?

Mum, what did you see?

False alarm.

Must've been a kangaroo or
something.

Come on, let's go.

Looks like he abandoned
the bike.

-No clue as to why?
[Jack]Nope.

The cop says he wasn't injured.

Nothing's wrong with the bike.
And the fuel tank isn't empty.

What does that mean?

Meaning he didn't
run out of fuel.

He abandoned the bike
for another reason.

Like what?

Well, there are
tracks everywhere.

Might Clay have run
around in circles?

Or he wasn't alone.

Oh, my boy.

[phone ringing]

It's Beau.

After I found out
Tegan was pregnant,

I just needed to get away,
you know?

So I headed up
to Sadler Point at dawn.

-Didn't answer your phone.
-Turned it off.

Needed a bit of quiet.

I heard the choppers
and whatnot, but

I didn't think for a second...

Did you see Clay
before you took off?

Thought he was asleep
in Tegan's tent.

-And the bike?
-With the Ute, where I left it.

Keys for the bike?

In the ignition.

Anyone see you at Sadler Point?

What're you saying?
That I hurt my own son?

The argument last night
got heated.

And not for the first time.

That's why I took off.

No good to anyone
when I get like that.

[Jamie] I haven't done anything.

He's out there, okay?
He needs our help. Let me help.

You think Jamie had something
to do with this?

He can be an angry unit, but...

You've seen how he is with Clay.

Yeah, but I think
I need to have a talk to him.

How about you just
head over there and cool down?

Filled up the car this morning
before you went fishing,

hey, at the weir?

Yeah, that's right.

And what, the weir's a couple
of kilometres away?

-Yeah.
-Fuel gauge shows almost empty.

Where were you
this morning mate?

I...got fuel
and just drove around.

Why, Jamie?

Because I hate being this guy
around Beau. This...insecure.

Didn't see anyone,
didn't stop anywhere?

No.

You know,
you'll never be Clay's father,

but you'll always
be important to him.

You know that. Kid knows that.

I'd be going out of my mind if
Charlee or Toby went missing.

After all this time, it's hard
not to imagine the worst.

-Clay! Clay!
-Clay!

-Come on, mate, where are you?
-Get out, buddy, where are you?

It's safe to come out,
mate, come on!

Clay!

Hello, Denise,
hope I'm not disturbing you.

No, not at all. You and Jack
have been a great help.

Oh, thank you.
So, how's the search going?

We're focusing on this area
South of the mountain.

Clay might be following it.

[Denise sighs]

There hasn't been a report
of a missing girl, has there?

About ten years old, red hair.

And I know it sounds daft, but

she was wearing
an old-fashioned dress.

-You've seen her?
-Oh, you know about her?

There's been lots of sightings
of her over the years.

-Who is she?
-Audrey, my great-great-aunt.

Audrey disappeared
probably down an old mine shaft

about a hundred years ago.

-You're saying I saw a ghost?
-Ha-ha. I know how it sounds.

Well, I don't go in
for that kind of thing.

-No, neither did I.
-You saw her too?

A few times.

People say she's a spirit guide.

-Guide to what?
-It's different.

For everyone.

[instrumental music]

-And we're here because?
-Well, it's just a hunch.

You saw your little girl, didn't
you? Which way did she go?

Denise tells me
that she's the ghost of a girl

who died last century.

Ghost?

She believes that
she's a spirit guide

who can lead people to things.

She might lead us to Clay.

-Mad as it sounds.
-So what do you wanna do?

Follow that ghost?

[helicopter whirring]

-Not long before the sun sets.
-Two hours.

Don't think this is
leading anywhere.

Think we should go back.

-Jack?
-Look here!

[gasps]

-Clay's baseball cap.
-Looks like it.

Is that a child's footprint?

They're the right size.
Well spotted.

Who'd have thought? My spirit
guide is the business.

Denise? Jack Darby.

[indistinct singing]

Hey, what's that?

[Jack]Mine shaft.

Enclosed space.

Hello? Clay?

It's Jack and Joan here.

[indistinct singing]

Clay don't be afraid.

We just want to take you
back to your mum.

He must have squeezed
through the bars.

How do we get down there?

I reckon this old mine
goes under the ridge

and out the other side.

[birds screeching]

[Clay humming]

He's in there.

How are you going
down there, mate?

Are you hurt? Can you climb out?

[humming]

Come on,
let us know you're okay.

You come out, and I'll be here
to take you to mum. Alright?

She can't wait to see you.

[humming]

Good job.

[helicopter whirring]

Bloody helicopters.

Clay. Clay.

♪ A little ray of sunshine ♪

♪ Has come into my world ♪

♪ A little ray of sunshine
in the shape of a boy ♪

[Jack]Very good.

♪ A little ray of sunshine ♪

That's right,
can you climb out, Clay?

That's right. Now, Jack will
lift you out now.

-No, don't touch.
-Okay, I got it. I got it.

I'm not gonna touch you.
I'm not gonna touch you.

We're gonna do this together.

That's a boy.

-Good job.
-Good boy.

Very good. You've done
so well. Such a brave boy.

-What?
-It's Clay.

-Mum!
-Clay!

-Clay!
-Oh, my baby!

[Beau]Oh, buddy, you're okay!

Hello!

I'm so glad you're okay.

-Oh, bub.
-Clay!

He scares himself
when he stacks the bike,

abandons it in the clearing.

But then he confuses himself,
you know,

trying to get back to camp.

Oh, but the noise
of the helicopters,

that would've been too much.

Yup.

You two are going
to do me out of work.

Well, really, it was
Joan's spirit guide that,

you know, did the heavy lifting.

He thinks he's hilarious.

At least he's pretty.

I think they're ready
to take your statement.

Good.

Oh, got yourself
a good one there.

If that's what's on offer
with the grey nomad,

I might give it a try myself.

He's been very kind to someone
a long way from home.

And what does bring you here?

We're not exactly
a travel hotspot.

My husband. He planned to come
here just before he died.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.

Grief's a long, lonely business.

I lost my fiancé years ago now,
but you never get over it.

The circumstances
of my husband's death

are, well, a little bit unclear.

Which is why we really wanted
to have a chance to talk

to the ranger, but he's been
so busy with the search.

Maybe I could help?

Everybody knows
everyone's business around here.

His name was Ian. Ian Kirkhope.

Does that name mean
anything to you?

Kirkhope...okay.

No, sorry. It doesn't.

And what about
the name Rob Deacon?

No. No, no, sorry.

Looks like they're ready
to take your statement now.

Thanks.

We'll get through this
as fast as we can.

[mystery music]

[sighs]

We can't thank you
enough for finding our boy.

Aww. We're really happy
to be of help.

If you're ever in Brisbane
and need anything, look us up.

-Will do.
-Thanks.

Comes in handy sometimes,
another parent.

Thanks, mate.

Deadly, both of you.

[kisses]

[Tegan] What do you reckon, bub?

Thank you, Jack and Joan.

It's a pleasure, mate.

-We should hit the road.
-Come back to ours to dinner.

Sounds good.

Drive safe.

-See ya. Come on. Let's go.
-See ya.

Well. Ranger can see us now.

[Jack] Good on ya, mate.

If Ian was a no-show,
that doesn't tell us anything.

Tells us that something
stopped him from getting here.

Yeah, and now we've got
to figure out what that was.

Well, let's look at
the calls on his phone

the day he was
supposed to arrive.

-There may be something there.
-Rebecca!

Mum. Don't freak out,
but I got Frida

to move up the booking.
Just for me though.

Oh, no, you can't leave now,
you've only just arrived!

I came because I was
worried about you,

but you don't need
worrying about.

And you've got something
very important to do.

-Look out for her.
-Will do.

But you can't just leave,
we have to at least

take you to the airport.

It's all taken care of.

[laughs]

You know where we are
when you need us.

Tell the kids
I miss them terribly.

Though I must admit,
I've really enjoyed

having you here to myself.

I've loved it too.

[chuckles]

-Bye, Jack.
-Bye, Becca.

Alright.

Bye.

Bye.

Take care.

[horn honking]

[bird calling]

[bird chirping]

-Very nice spot.
-Cheers, mate.

Cheers.

So Ian made three calls
the day he was due here.

One to the hire car place.

And the next one to...

[line ringing]

Well, we shall see.

[Curtis on phone]
Dad? Where have you been?

Dad, I've been
so worried about you.

-Who is this?
-It's Curtis.

[Curtis on phone]Who's this?

Who's this,
where-where's my father?
