We have decided that you will continue your studies abroad in London.

You and your whānau will live there until it is time to hoki mai.

We had to come back to Aotearoa because Mum was at home, but really it's because

of her work or something like that. Miria, out of the way, please.

And you're sure this is going to help my whānau?

I'm sure.

The correct term to describe us is kihua.

You're straight off a flight from London and into town to meet Matua Jacobson.

You're definitely not part of that new international agency that's trying to

Matua Jacobson's quarry in the adjoining Iwi land for a subdivision. Once she

smells the story, she will do everything in her power to find out the truth.

You will keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

I'm going to find those deeds, John boy. I know your nan has them.

You give me what I need and I'll let everything stay the same.

Do you need to discuss whatever dodgy deals be happening up in here?

I am not Captain Planet.

No, but you are Māori and whānau.

Kere whare kua.

How long have you been working for Floodgate and Co?

Kia ora, beautiful people. It's me, the nomadic native back in the haunted

homestead of Aotearoa.

For those who don't know, my family and I have been dealing with some unexpected

visitors.

Meet our resident kehua.

This is Korojo.

He's been around since forever.

Kia ora.

Korojo, what's it like being a kehua? Can you walk through walls? Do you get

hungry? Do you get tired and need a sleep?

Oh, that's right. He only talks in Māori.

Nate, get out of the shot.

And here's Aunty Huia.

She's our Nan's younger sister.

Say kia ora, Aunty Huia.

Kia ora.

Aunty Huia, how do you say, do you get tired in Māori?

Last but not least, this is John Boy.

He's Mum's cousin and our uncle.

I don't know how that worked.

Yeah, it's a pretty neat set -up you got there, girl.

Back when I was alive, all we had was the Nokia.

So there

you have it.

Our very own Whānau Kewa.

Hey, kia ora.

More na kiri? Uh -uh. No, not listening. Immediate delete that.

Mum's the only one having trouble adjusting to us being able to see Kewa.

Now!

Got to go, Nate.

Nothing to worry about.

I'm going to get you back.

Did you really think there'd be no repercussions?

Hey,

where'd they go?

Uh, yes.

Uh, kia ora.

Um, oh.

Mr. Stevens.

Kua tai, wawa mai?

Well, I didn't want to keep you waiting, Biddy.

So how's business? Is it keeping you well?

Uh, yeah. If by business you mean journalism, it is keeping me well.

Uh, I've just asked you here if you could just clarify a few details for me.

Of course.

I'm happy to help.

I've been looking into Floodgate and Co.

And their sudden interest in local lands. There's a lot of fast -tracked

applications and these approvals that just don't quite add up.

Flogate and Co.

Never heard of them.

Huh. Really?

That's interesting. It's just, you know, it seems wherever I look, your name

keeps popping up.

I'm a popular guy, Maddy. My name tends to be on a lot of people's waha.

Yeah. So you'd know better than anyone then that where there's smoke, there's

fire?

Smoke and mirrors, Mitty.

Smoke and mirrors.

Look, I'm just trying to get to the truth.

Mitty, always the crusader.

Half the truth is often a great lie.

You have to choose your battles more wisely, Mitty, and learn when to leave

things alone.

He didn't even offer me a cup of tea, Mitty.

Let's have a go.

Pleasure as always.

Mm -hmm.

I said help your dad out. See you soon.

Yeah, help dad out.

Got it.

Not again.

Night!

Yeah, boy.

Let me give you a hand.

Kia ora, Uncle.

Uncle Bill has just seen him. He said something about putting a bell on him.

But we'll go check by the crib.

All right, everybody. Stations as usual. Let's go find this boy.

Oh, hi.

Kia ora.

E kere.

Me kōrero tāua.

Where are you off to in such a hurry?

Nowhere. Home.

Oh, yeah? Where's home?

I think you're meant to say, My auntie told me that you should ask strangers

they are and where they're from, so you know who they fuck up over to.

Is that so?

Yep. I don't know.

Hey, look, are you sure you don't want me to go and help look for your son?

Go away.

The meteor man will find him. Or his Uncle Bull will.

He's done this before. I think he's got a bearing.

Well,

since our last korero, I looked into Tipene's operations.

There are so many dubious dealings and all these loose ends that

lead to this unethical practice.

And what does that have to do with me?

I need your help to expose the truth.

Why would I help you?

OK, well, this... was buried under a lot of fast -track deals, so pretty well

hidden, but by the looks of it, Tipene has filed a claim to subdivide this

whenua. Yeah, I'm well aware of his dealings.

I think you're forgetting who led you to Tipene.

Koya.

That's why I'm here.

This whole thing is far bigger than Tipene.

We're dealing with widespread corruption involving local officials.

and government entities, and it's all linked to these fraudulent land

transactions.

Tipene's been their man on the ground. He's been facilitating the deals, and

everything circles back to Floodgate & Co, where I know that you have

I can bring everyone down.

But I just need a credible source from within Floodgate & Co.

Oh, so you want me to be the whistleblower?

I don't know.

With your inside knowledge and everything I've discovered, we can

people that are exploiting our communities.

We can unearth corruption on the highest level.

On my terms.

Matua, what are you doing out here by yourself?

That's none of your business.

Oh, why?

You talk a lot.

Yeah, my auntie said that too, but she also said she liked it. Because people

hardly ever talk to her because she's a... Wait, are you a kehua?

No. Don't be stupid. I'm not a ghost.

You're not supposed to say that, G -word.

Hey, you're Kitty, then, aren't you?

Yep, in order.

Hey, wait. What's in the bag?

Take it easy.

Hey!

Hey!

What the hell's going on? Hey!

Get the bike away.

You all right?

Get the bike away.

Hey, come on. Take a breath.

What the hell are you doing out here with your hands on my son? Hey, just

out. Your boy was out wandering alone. I thought it'd be a good time out and

just check if he was all right.

Wouldn't want anyone to think he's been neglected now, would we? Watch your

mouth.

Hiya, my bug.

Good to see you. Kitty, nice you finally show up. You want to tell Kevin Costner

here to back off?

Watch him!

Hey, hey, hey.

I'm not leaving you out here with this piece of shit.

Hey.

I will be fine.

Go.

Go.

Why did you tell me to meet you out here if you're going to send your book for

your dad just to rough me up?

It's this journal.

What are we going to do about it?

You are in over your head.

Mere Mereana has all the details and facts she needs to bury you.

Your fraudulent dealings, your lies, your involvement, it is all going to be

in the open now.

You should run and hide while you still can. You said you'd be able to protect

me. We had a deal. Deal?

What deal?

The only deal I made is with Floodgate.

You were becoming a liability for them, so I had to ensure you were taken care

of.

You used me.

Used you?

You're a puppet.

I need to keep my hands clean and you were the perfect fool for the job. But

got greedy.

So I'm going to make sure you rot.

I'm going to take you down with me.

There is no way you're getting away with this.

I think I already have.

Enjoy the full dip in there.

It's a long way down.

These are my terms.

You take Tipene down, I'll give you all the ammunition you need.

But he'll fight.

And I only do this if he's silenced.

I stand to lose too much if his lies get out.

Nothing gets traced back to me.

If it does, I'll deny it. And your story doesn't exist.

Tuarua, my whānau stayed out of this.

My kids, machu, bull, everyone.

They must never know about my involvement with Tipene or Floodgate &

Mārama.

choosing to help me?

Help you?

This isn't about you.

My whole life was planned out for me.

But not anymore.

I see the big picture that they were too blind to see

I

make

the rules now

What's up?

And no one would stand in my way.
