Everyone's a suspect till we find out where
this boy's been for the last five years.

I'm really sorry that I couldn't
be at the funeral.

I didn't go. I'm not gonna pretend
I liked him just because he's dead.

We've got reason to believe that Nathan's
kidnapper's holding another child captive.

So, this happened nearly two weeks
ago, but you've only just remembered?

Yeah, I've had some memory loss
since the accident.

Right.

- So, you didn't see the driver?
- No.

Are you sure the boy
that you saw was Nathan?

Yeah, it was Nathan.

(CLEARS THROAT) Get them to
photograph all this, dust for prints.

There's a job to aspire to.

(TENSE MUSIC)

(WATER RUNS)

Can you get them to check for a print
match on the card that Nathan gave us.

- Why didn't you follow up on her?
- Sorry, what?

Why didn't you follow up on her?

On every kid's self-harming?
You go knock yourself out.

Fuck it!

(TENSE TAPPING MUSIC)

She's older than Nathan, 13.

14. She's got long red hair.

She's thin. She's pale.
She's got blue eyes.

She's got marks on both her
forearms, here and here,

some old and some fresh.

It's not great, and I'm sorry.

Now, we know that the name Lucy
means something to Nathan,

and I... I think that it's the girl.

Could be the kidnapper.

Look, whatever her name is,
this girl is in serious trouble.

We need to check out every
missing child on the island

in the last 10 years

and any kid that was missing
that was presumed dead.

Rory, school records on the island,
you do primary school and secondary.

Harding, adults, OK?

Uh, I wanna list of all Lucys on
the island in the last 10 years.

Look.

I know this is an
island and all,

but how could a kid be kept captive
for years and no one know about it?

Hmm? Nathan was the result of a balls-up,
but where's this girl come from?

How come no one's reported
her missing?

Doug Bennington's here to see.
Can I send him through? - Yeah.

Oh, um, (CLEARS THROAT)
I'll be out in a second.

Track down all the white vans
on the island.

Ah, yes, I actually got a call this morning.
It was a burnt-out van up Waimea way.

- Check it out.
- I'll do that.

(BREATHES HEAVILY)

- Where are you going?
- Gonna interview Billy Brax.

I asked you to track everyone
with the name Lucy.

You're telling me not
to go interview Billy?

No, I'm just saying I know Billy
and he's solid.

Well, he gets two ticks on my list.

One... he lives within the two-K
radius of where Nathan turned up,

and, two, he was part of the group
the day that Nathan went missing.

You said, 'Those of us who weren't
on the original investigation

'should prioritise re-interviewing
everyone.' It's what I'm doing.

All right, well, just don't let
it slip that Nathan's alive.

Yeah, got that note.

- He reminds me of me back in the day.
- He's an arsehole. Exactly.

- (ENGINE STARTS)
- (CHUCKLES)

What's up?

I've been going over the case in my head.

Now, there were a
couple of older boys...

Dillan something, he was OK,

but the other one, Mark,
he had all the signs

of someone we're gonna see
again, you know?

- Mm-hm.
- I could never put my finger on it,

but there was something not
quite right with those two.

You should get your
offsider to interview them.

He's got the sort of shitty attitude
that might just work with them.

(CHUCKLES)

Thank you.

(UNSETTLING MUSIC)

(HAUNTING MUSIC)

(AXE THUDS, DOG BARKS DISTANTLY)

(AXE THUDS REPEATEDLY,

(DOG BARKS VICIOUSLY)

Oh, he's friendly. Just let him
sniff you, and he'll leave you alone.

- Geez.
- (LAUGHS)

Told you he's friendly.

All righty, Conrad, you had your
fun, mate. Now go on, get out of it.

(CHICKENS CLUCK)

You're not one of the local cops.

Detective Justin Harding.

Isolated spot.

Does it back on to the
reserve over there?

Yep.

You live here alone?

Just me and the animals.

So no Mrs Billy or little Billies?

What can I do for you, Justin?

You held a memorial service for that
kid who drowned some years back...

A week after he went missing.

- A bit quick, wasn't it?
- Nah.

His spirit needed setting free, man.

And was it?

Was it what?

Set free?

You have to ask a higher authority
than me.

- His father wanted it.
- Simon?

Yeah.

Mum was still holding out hope.

Not the dad.

Why was that?

You'd have to ask him.

I'll do that.

You were in charge of some of the
kids on that trip, weren't you?

(INHALES, EXHALES HEAVILY)

Yeah.

I was supposed to be teaching
the older boys some bushcraft.

Waste of time.

City kids... couldn't
teach them a thing.

They annoy you, did they,
those city kids?

(INHALES) No more than
you're annoying me now.

Yeah, I need you over here in
Auckland. There's, uh...

two boys that need interviewing.
Yeah, Mark Sutton and a...

Dillan. Holloway.
Yeah, I'm seeing him this afternoon.

OK.

- Did you talk to Billy?
- (SIGHS) Yeah.

Sends his love.

I was gonna call you, actually.

HQ finally responded
about Nathan's backpack.

Apparently after the case was
closed, they gave it to his father.

WOMAN: Why can't
you understand that?!

MAN: No, no, that... that is not what I
am saying, OK. You can see what happened.

- That is exactly what you're saying!
- (SIGHS)

It's not his fault, Simon.

I know that, but he's not OK.

- I mean...
- Of course, he's not OK.

What's going on?

(SIGHS) Oh for...

(TUTS)

Suni, tried to take a sandwich
from Nathan, and Nathan...

...bit him!

- Kids bite.
- Not like this, OK.

- You didn't see it.
- He is not safe around Suni.

Oh, spare me your precious Suni!

He... We've got reason to believe that Nathan's
kidnapper's holding another child captive.

- What?
- And we need to find her and quickly.

- (SIGHS) I have to talk to Nathan.
- I don't think that's a good idea.

Yeah.

Yeah, OK. Just...

be gentle.

(GRUNTS)

When did it appear?

- Oh, wasn't here yesterday morning.
- Right.

Does it look like the one
you saw Saturday night?

Well, could be.

Pretty hard to tell now.

(TUTS) Oh, some people just got no
respect for our beautiful wilderness.

(CHUCKLES SOFTLY)

Hey, buddy.

Two weeks ago, I banged my head
in a car accident, and I...

Well, I've forgotten a lot of stuff,

but I remember seeing you
at the old...

at the old petrol station.

Yeah, and...

that's where you got my card,
isn't it?

From the girl that you were with.

STERNLY: I need you to help
me get her out of there.

Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

You have to go easy on him.

Look, this morning,
he was under the couch

trying to bite Simon every
time he came near him.

Why do you think he was
trying to bite Simon?

I don't know what triggered it.

Jealousy of a new child.

- I just... I need some more time with him...
- We don't have time.

- Young girl's life is on the line.
- (SIGHS)

Nathan.

Yeah, I need...

any help that you've got, anything
that you can give me about...

where she might be located.
It's really very important.

(BREATHES HEAVILY)

Any clue about where
he was hiding you.

Lucy was her name, yeah?

Lucy? And she was your friend?

Come on, Nathan,
you got away from him.

Don't you want her to get away too?

(WAILS)

OK, breathe, darling.

Breathe.

You're OK. Breathe.
It's OK. Just breathe.

I want you to come down the station.
(SCOFFS)

Why?

What, so I'm a suspect now?

2.30?

Where's Nathan's backpack?

What?

The backpack that was found
after Nathan went missing.

It was given back to you after
the inquiry was complete,

and I need to run
some tests on it.

You've got Nathan's backpack?

- I destroyed it.
- You what? Why?

Come on, Simon, we're going home.

Simon?

(OMINOUS MUSIC)

(HORNS HONK, SIREN BLARES)

I need to talk to Nathan
without his parents

or his bloody
psychologist interfering.

She said he's set his
progress back six months.

(SIGHS) That's bull.

He wanted to talk to me.

Jess?

STERNLY: Jess?

(BREATHES HEAVILY)

(FOOTSTEPS APPROACH)

Jess.

Oh, shit, mate.

How you doing?

Hey, I'm sorry I couldn't
make the funeral.

That's OK. I didn't either.

Did you check the brake fluid and
the cables and the steering bolts?

Yeah, I examined all that.
That's my job, eh? - And?

Hey, come on, Jess,
you know I can't...

Hey, why don't you talk to Petrie.
He's got the report.

I was in that thing. (SNIFFLES)
Alex was killed in that thing.

I just... (BREATHES HEAVILY)

Oh, come on, I just want answers.
That's all.

(SIGHS)

Tell me what you remember about the
day that Nathan Baum disappeared.

I, uh...

I don't remember much about that
time at all, to be honest.

- Well, this might help.
- What is it?

Read it out loud.

Um.

READS: 'The bus dropped us at the
entrance to the reserve.

'Everyone collected their bags,
and well all walked to the first clearing.

'It only took about 10 minutes.

BOTH: 'It was in the karakia, you know,

a prayer thing that's
said often in groups.'

What's your problem, mate?

My problem, Mark, is that's your statement.
And this is your mate Dillan's.

And I just find it a little
bit suspicious how both of them

have the same word-for-word
account of what happened.

Yeah, well, that's
what happened, so...

(CHUCKLES) See.

See, here's the thing, Mark.

It's obvious from these that you
two were covering for each other.

Now,
I need to know why you lied.

(SNIFFS)

OK.

I'll go ask your mate Dillan.

(TENSE MUSIC)

Wait!

All right, look, me and Dillan,

we were arseholes back then, right.
We were 12.

I mean, all 12-year-old boys
are arseholes, so...

(SIGHS) some of those kids, the ones
that were acting like spoiled brats,

we roughed them up a bit
on the way to the karakia.

Was Nathan one of those brats?

No, he was smart enough
to stay out of our way.

So you and Dillan never made it
down to the karakia?

So you can't have seen Nathan.

Hey, um, I thought you might be
interested in this.

It's got some photos from that trip.
I was a parent helper there.

I don't know you took any photos,
Dad.

Where's the last time you saw
Nathan that day, Mr Sutton?

Never saw him. I was keeping an eye
on the big boys, like this ratbag here.

(CHUCKLES) Yeah, he was just telling
me what a bit of a ratbag he wasback then.

Weren't you, Mark?

(SCOFFS)

Traces of normal human secretion...
sweat, urine, saliva.

A few small spots of blood.

Nathan's?

We found nine human hairs in total.

Six were Nathan's. The remaining
three were from other individuals.

Animal hairs... rabbit, possum, dog.

And the hairs on Nathan's backpack,
did you get a match on them?

Those hairs were destroyed
three months ago.

You're kidding.

Unfortunately, we're not obliged to
keep samples once the case is closed.

(SIGHS)

(DOG BARKS)

(DOGS SNIFF)

(BREATHES HEAVILY)

(DOG BARKS)

Why get offside with the parents
and the psychologist?

I mean, that was not very
smart, was it?

(GROANS) No, look, we brought a bit
of time by not going public with this.

But eventually in the dead of night,

he's gonna wake up and realise
that Nathan is talking to the cops,

that he is telling us where he is,

and that is when he's
gonna get rid of her.

OK, I've heard you.

I'll see what I can do.

- Can I have a copy of that?
- I'll think about it.

- I don't think you have any right to think...
- Listen.

If you want to show me you're still
capable of making good decisions,

you'll leave right now.

- Shall I shut this?
- Yes, please.

(SIGHS)

I heard Nathan went apeshit.

- What happened?
- Who told you that?

Chloe, Nathan's mum.
We've got a bit of rapport going.

(CHUCKLES)

Should you not be
interviewing those two boys?

Already cracked them.

Neither of them saw Nathan at the
karakia... weren't even there,

too busy bullying some
of the younger kids.

Yeah.

But I got this.

Where did you get this?

Mark's dad. He was a parent helper
on the day of the trip.

'Good work, Harding.'
Yeah, no worries, Jess.

Thank you for coming in, Simon.

Could you begin by telling me about
your relationship with Rashni.

(CLEARS THROAT)

Uh, we began seeing each other
six months after Nathan died...

after we were told he was dead.

Rashni was on the trip to the island,
though, correct, as Nathan's teacher?

Yeah. Yes.

That's right.

But you didn't start a relationship
until after Nathan went missing?

She was very supportive.

I have a photo I'd
like you to look at.

This was taken on the day
that Nathan went missing.

Could you describe what's
going on in the photo please.

Uh, it's me...

and Rashni...

talking.

Do you hold hands with
everybody you talk to?

What were you talking about?

I don't remember.

You destroyed Nathan's backpack.
How?

I threw it in the rubbish.

(SCOFFS) What was
I supposed to do...

just hide it under the
bed, pop it in the garage?

So you threw it in the rubbish.

It was too painful for me to keep it!

- Sit down, Simon.
- No!

No, I want to leave.

You are absolutely free to go.

One more thing.

Do you have a dog?

A dog? No.

Have you ever had a dog?

Yes.

Yes, actually. I got
custody of Nathan's dog.

Victor died last year.

Chloe wanted him buried at her
place... you know, the family home.

So we ended up
burying him together.

It wasn't meant to be a big thing, but...

But it felt like we
were burying Nathan.

Neither of us said anything,
but I know we both felt it.

Oh, shit! Oh, shit!

- Oh, shit.
- Lolly scramble.

(MUTTERS)

I got it.

Yep, thanks.

Yeah.

Get anything from Simon?

I want you to disinter the dog.

You want me to what?

Hmm.

Dig up his dead dog.

I know what disinter means.

When I said 'you want me to what',
I meant 'you've got to be fucking kidding me'.

- Ma'am.
- Take forensics with you.

Check the hair on the dog with the hair
that was found on Nathan's clothes.

Questions?

(EXHALES)

(SIGHS) The dog's buried
at the mother's place.

Oh, I really hope that doesn't
interfere with your rapport.

(SIGHS)

(SNIFFS)

(SURREAL MUSIC)

(DOG BARKS)

(GROANS)

(DOG BARKS)

So, Dillan and Mark were too busy

bullying other kids to even make it to
the karakia, so that's not a sighting.

And what about this guy?
He saw him on the rope swing.

Uh, yeah,
that's what he said at the time.

Now he says he was just
trying to be helpful.

What about the phys ed teacher.
She was solid?

Uh, she lied to cover up the fact
that she was off having a smoke.

She said, 'Thought it wouldn't matter
because other people had seen him.'

- Charge her.
- It was five years ago.

There's no statute of limitations on providing
false statements to the police, Pup.

(SIGHS) Right, well.

Basically, we don't have a verifiable sighting
of Nathan after the karakia.

And the only person to see him
at the karakia was his dad.

(SIGHS) What about the van?

Um, someone went to a bit of trouble.
It's been totally fried.

There's... There's no plates,

and apart from the fact that it's white,
there's actually nothing to identify it at all.

No, there's got to be something.

Go on, get forensics in there.

Get them to go over the whole thing
with a fine-tooth comb if you have to.

Cheer up, mate.

Think of Justin Harding having
to dig up a dead dog right now.

(CHUCKLES)

- Jess? Jess?
- Yeah. (SIGHS)

They've done two double
shifts without a break.

Tell them to harden up.

No, I'm not prepared to do that.

They're gonna make mistakes
if they don't sleep.

- Tell them to go home, then.
- I did.

- They won't go until you do.
- (SIGHS)

MUTTERS: Fine.

I'll work from home.

Good night.

(BREATHES HEAVILY)

- Hey.
- Hey.

- You want something?
- (SIGHS)

No, just...

these headaches are
making me nauseous.

Well, I've got just the thing.

AJ gets really bad migraines, so...

I always have these on me
just in case.

They're legit.
Honestly, they really work.

Yeah.

Where did you get them from?

Oh, come on,
they're just tramas, Mum.

Take them. You'll feel much better.

For God's sake, it's not heroin.

(SWALLOWS)

Do you know how to (CLEARS THROAT)

sync my new iPhone with
my old iCloud account?

You're such a dinosaur.

I wanna check... (GROANS)

who I talked to before the accident.

I've got memory blanks.

How do you mean?

Uh, well, I mean, I can remember
your birthday, but...

And there's just holes between
then and waking up in the hospital.

(SIGHS)

Did I say anything to you,
anything odd or...?

Like what?

I dunno.

Um.

You had a couple of crank calls.

Hmm.

Did I say who called?

Heavy breather. (IMITATES BREATHING)

Oh. (CHUCKLES)

Do you think you forgot...
other important things?

- From before the accident, I mean.
- Yeah, probably.

What's this?

That's Alex.

It got delivered this afternoon.

I hope your head feels better.

(SOMBRE MUSIC)

(FOOTSTEPS APPROACH)

Boss.

Coffee, croissant and some
news you're not gonna like.

Mm-hm.

Forensics have come back with more
info on the hairs on Nathan's clothes.

The DNA of the girl and unidentified
male are familial.

- Oh, Christ, she's his daughter.
- Mm-hm.

Explains why no one
reported her missing.

They also have a match
for the dog hairs.

All right, well, that puts Simon
at the top of our suspects list.

At least that's something.

The match wasn't for Simon's dog.

The hairs on Nathan's clothes are
a match for Billy Brax' dog.

- What?
- His dog's hairs were on my clothes.

When the hairs from Simon's dog
didn't match, I got them to test Billy's dog.

Look, it doesn't necessarily
mean Billy's our guy...

All right,
let's do this properly.

We need to get forensics in there to
get a clean sample of Billy's dog.

They're already on their way.

(SIGHS)

Good.

Well, I'll get a warrant
for his house and property.

(INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER)

(CURIOUS MUSIC)

It's OK, Pup. It's your job,
brother.

(DOG PANTS)

Hi.

Rory.

I want you to pull all of the
unknown calls off my old SIM card,

anyone not in my contacts.

I think that Nathan called me two,
maybe three times.

- Yeah, I'm on it.
- Thank you.

Man on a mission.

- Find anything yet?
- (INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER)

Look, I think Billy should
be interviewed at Central...

not on the island, I mean.

- The local guys like him too much.
- Yeah, you're right.

And I think it should
be me that does it.

OK.

Well, wait for the test results.
Don't go talking to him till I say so.

(TENSE MUSIC)

(SIGHS)

(SNIFFLES)

Can you not leave him alone
for five minutes?

OK, how about I ask
you some questions?

- (BREATHES HEAVILY)
- Yeah, all right.

Right, um... (PANTS)

On the day of Nathan's disappearance,

when was the last time you saw him?

And just think carefully
before you answer.

(SIGHS)

At the karakia.

After that, I went off with
the year eight students.

We went and studied
medicinal plants.

So, you're sure that you
saw him at the karakia?

OK. (SIGHS)

To be precise,
it was just before that.

We stopped and talked at
the edge of the clearing.

About what?

His backpack, actually.

He didn't have it with him.

Look, he was always leaving
things behind, you know...

shoes, hat, lunchbox.
Very annoying.

We were trying to get him to take
responsibility for his own things.

I told him that he had
to go back and get it.

He asked me to come with him, and, uh...
And I refused.

So he went alone?

Yeah. Look...

I watched him walk
back down the track.

OK, it would have
taken maybe 10 minutes.

Yeah, did you see him return?

No, but obviously he did. He was
seen by half a dozen people after that.

Look, I admit I got annoyed.

OK, I just wanted him
to grow up a bit.

(CRIES SOFTLY)

(CRIES SOFTLY)

WHISPERS: Oh, mate.

Hey.

- Oh.
- (SOBS, WHIMPERS)

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, Nate.

Hey.

I hate that that was the last thing
I said to you and...

Hey.

- Hey.
- (SOBS)

Come here.

(SOBS) I'm sorry, buddy.

I'm so sorry.

(SOBS)

I'm sorry. (SOBS)

Search came back with a
big zero from Billy Brax'.

Nothing?

No, no sign of children being kept...
not a lot.

Not even a gate on
the entire property.

Well, we are still waiting
for forensics, so...

Harding, you said that these two
boys were bullying the other kids.

What exactly were they doing?

They'd grab their
backpacks off them.

When the kids went looking for
them, they'd rough them up a bit.

You didn't think
of mentioning that?

Cos that'd be the reason why Nathan
was hiding his backpack in the bus.

It's because he was worried about
being targeted by these two.

And then Simon sent him back
on his own to go get it.

Yeah. Hey, we're gonna need to
talk to Jack Brodie again...

...and find out whether Nathan
made it back to the bus at all.

RORY: Hey, um, I've got those
unidentified callers you wanted.

Great.

There were three calls
from that number,

and you called it back once,
but hung up after 10 seconds,

- so maybe it went to voicemail.
- Yes.

There is something else. I accessed
the message in your old voicemail,

and it was from that number.

AUTOMATED VOICE:
Message received 3rd October 2018.

(BEEP!)

It's the day before my accident.

(HEAVY BREATHING, WHIMPERING PLAYS)

Play it again.

(HEAVY BREATHING, WHIMPERING PLAYS)

Nathan, he's coming.

Geez.

That's why I ordered
Nathan's case file.

If I ordered Nathan's case file,
then I would have had the message traced.

OK, call Comms and make sure
I got that message traced.

- It was the 3rd or the 4th of October, OK?
- OK.

Uh.

(DIAL TONE)

Simon.

Yeah, Detective Savage here. Hey,
I just send you through a photo.

Can... Can you and Rashni
have a look?

Yeah, OK.

Yeah, no, no, it's fine.

I'm going 10-7.

All right, thanks.

OK, Rory says that call
was tracked by comms...

got stuck in the system
after your accident.

Where's it from?

- Waimea Valley.
- (SIGHS)

- It's where Billy Brax lives...
- Yeah, I know Billy Brax lives there.

Hey.

In your original statement,

you said that you weren't at the
karakia, that you were back on the bus.

Did you see Nathan
return to the bus?

Jack?

Because I, uh...

gave Nathan's father this
and one of his teachers...

never seen this guy before,
which is strange, right?

Considering both of them
came on the bus.

But...

This guy.

Not you. Who is it?

Took your time, didn't you?

- What are you doing here, Doug?
- I called him.

I want to make a confession.

I'd had a fair bit to
drink the night before.

Well, the truth is I'd been on
a bender that night.

Wife had left me. My life was shit.

Anyway, when I woke that morning,
I knew I'd still be over the limit.

I'd lose my licence for sure.

Not much on the island
for a guy like me.

Doug gives me the odd job.

On his property, I mean.

Tell her, Jack.

So, I got

someone to do the...

(SIGHS) morning shift for me.

Drive them to the reserve,
then bring the bus back here.

Who?

I didn't think I needed
to say anything because

the kid didn't go missing
till later in the day.

It's not like the bus driver
had anything to do with it.

Who did you get to drive the bus?

RORY: He's in the same
valley as Billy Brax,

and we just asked Billy where
his dog goes when he's away.

And get this.
He stays with Gill Larson's dogs.

OK, got it. Thanks, Rory.

Hey, she's here.

Hey, hey.

It's OK. It's OK. I'm a cop.

I'm a cop. You're OK.

It's all right. Good.

Good. Can you stand?

She's a homebirth... never registered.
(INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER)

The mother?

Looks like she left the country when the
girl was about 5... never looked back.

Can't blame her for that.

I can. Some of these locals
must have seen something.

How come nobody said anything?

That's something we
can all ask ourselves.
