Original subtitles

What are you laughing at? That's not even fully formed.

You've murdered it as a baby. You're making fun of my radish.

Here we go, it's peak hour at the sink.

Oh, isn't it my turn to pick the movie this week? No, you picked a really

boring war movie last time. What?

True, darling. We both fell asleep.

Is it?

You two have no taste. I'm trying to, you know, culture you both. Bridge Over

the River of Kauai is a classic. It's a classic.

How about I randomly select something? That way we have no arguments. Good

idea? Oh, I can only imagine what that movie might be.

Good morning.

All night through.

Good morning to you.

Good morning. Oh, shush.

Turn that off.

I don't know the car. Okay, right, you, upstairs.

Please, who do you think it is?

I don't know. Quick, upstairs.

And remember, lights out.

There you go.

That is a fancy gate.

Sorry, I'm Jack Brenton. I bought the block next door.

And I thought, I know what I'll do. I'll swing past.

Say hello.

My wife and I don't drink.

Ah.

Ah. Sorry.

A cup of tea.

A cup of tea would be great.

Oh, we're early to bed, early to rise people here.

It's a beautiful place you've got, mate, and a house.

Hey. What happened?

Oh, just some busybody.

What did he want?

He's gone now.

Why don't you get some sleep and finish the film tomorrow?

Okay. Love you, possum.

Love you.

Night-night.

Little leaves set the wind one day Come over meadows

with me and play Put on your dresses of red

and gold For summer is gone and the days grow

cold Dancing and whirling the little leaves went

Winter had called them and they were content.

Soon fast asleep in their earthy beds.

The snow made a covenant over them.

Thank you both for coming in.

So... We got the preliminary forensics report back this morning and there's no

easy way to say this.

It seems there's evidence of trauma to the victim's neck consistent with

strangulation. That means this is now officially a homicide investigation.

Of course, there's still a lot of forensics work that needs to get done.

We're trying to organise a vigil for our little girl. Of course, I understand.

When can we have her back?

I can't release the body until we've confirmed ID and forensics have signed

off. You just tell us? How long? Just tell us.

Four to six weeks.

One more thing.

We are going to need a DNA sample from you, Debbie, to test against.

If you don't mind.

Now?

If you can, that would be good.

I've got it all set up just outside.

Okay.

Actually, Ian, do you mind staying? I organised for Bill to come and sit with

you while you give the sample.

So I was looking at the files from the original investigation and I saw your

son's statement regarding a door knock.

No, that's a dead end.

Well, as I understand it, Dean was babysitting on the night of the

kidnapping. Someone knocked on the door, said he had the wrong house, then left

again. Yes, but Dean was distracted. He never got a good look at the guy. Still,

seems likely whoever knocked on the door was casing the house and might have

something to do with the kidnapping.

So you want to re-interview Dean?

Just get him to give me a ring.

Okay?

I guess you've heard about this vigil for mags?

Deb's asked me if I'd help out.

Yeah. So I'll be there.

She thinks it could be like a fresh start.

It's not about fresh fucking starts, Donny. It's about I don't want to have

to deal with a pack of strangers who are pretending to care about a kid that they

have never met.

Well, that's pretty fucking cynical.

Well, that's probably why you love me, isn't it?

Well, it is a little bit.

But, I mean, it's about a community getting around you. It's about support.

It's about letting go. It's saying goodbye.

Yeah, yeah.

I know all the things.

Maybe it would be good for you to go for you.

Would it?

It might not hurt. It might be a good way to release.

It'll hurt, mate.

It might be a good way to say goodbye.

It will hurt.

It's going to hurt.

And what about the program?

Back on?

36 hours sober.

What, 37 actually? Not that I'm counting. I don't want to sound like a

broken record, mate, but you can't.

I know. You know, you've got to do the steps. You can't just rough it out day

by day. I know, I know. You know where that ends.

Fuck's sake.

Talk to you later.

Damn.

Every time. I wish I could help you, my love, but you're already so much better

than me.

Could I finish up now?

Okay, well, do you want to carry on with your painting?

I said there's more rain coming, so maybe I'd better check the yard and make

sure everything's secure.

All right.

You are good.

I am good.

Love you, Mum. Love you.

Starting to think you weren't coming.

A man came to our gate last night and he offered my father drinks.

Oh yeah, that would have been Dad. He said he was going to say hi to the new

neighbours. You didn't tell him that you'd been around here though, right?

No.

Why would I?

Just promise me you won't tell, okay?

No, I won't.

But what's the big deal?

Promise me, okay?

I won't.

Look, I got a new one.

Vulpus vulpus.

It's a fox.

You're so weird.

What's that thing, like, in your ear?

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

It's music.

Wanna listen?

Uh, just put it in here.

You just listen.

How do they make their voices sound like that? I don't know.

It'd be special effects, I guess.

I have

to go.

Right now. I can come Thursday.

I have to go. So do you.

I'll come Thursday then.

I'm sorry. She gave me a scare, that's all.

I was hiding under a tree. I thought it would stop and it didn't. You two look

like you've had a dip in the dam.

Come in, get warm.

Looks like the shaft's come adrift.

Bolt's missing.

Probably the storm.

Just use some of this.

Here you go, possum.

Yeah? It's stuck.

Just feed it through the bolt hole. Yeah, I know how to do it. Well, do it.

Twist it round.

I know how.

Use your wrists.

I am.

Twist it off. Yep.

Okay. Got it.

I think people have moved into that empty farm behind us.

What makes you say that?

The other night, I saw lights down there.

And that man who came to our gate... Don't you worry about him.

Just make sure you steer clear of that end of the property until I tell you

different, alright?

Possum?

Okay, Possum? They aren't all bad, are they?

People outside?

No, they're not all bad.

But the outside world is a bad place. And a godless place. Doesn't seem bad.

You go out there.

Your father has to go to work.

So we can be together.

We can live the way we want to.

I'm glad that you do that for us.

I'm glad you can see that.

Not every possum.

Well, that's a good day's work.

Hey.

Maybe you better stop coming here.

Why?

What do I do?

Nothing.

I just... I just think it'd be better.

I was...

Gonna give you this.

What is it?

So you can listen to music.

I put a bunch of different stuff on there.

I can play all of these songs?

Mm-hmm. But if you come to my place, then I can add whatever you like.

I can't leave the farm.

I never have.

What?

No way.

Where people are faith.

In the outside world.

hates people of faith.

If they knew I was here the government would come and they would force me to go

to one of their schools and if my parents didn't agree they'd take me

away.

That's why you can't tell about me.

So you're like a prisoner?

Of course I'm not a prisoner.

I stay here because I want to.

Ian, Ian, Ian. Here you go, mate. Just here to see Bill.

It's an official crime scene, mate. I know it's an official crime scene. I've

already been here. I'm here to see Bill. Let him through.

What's up? This photo.

What is this? Is this Deb's idea or is this yours?

She asked me to choose something. I thought that was appropriate.

Appropriate, is it?

Because they're putting it up all over town. I'm seeing it on my windshield.

I'm seeing it on power poles.

That's the point, mate. We're trying to spread the word about the vigil.

I guess it's a good idea, is it? Because you've got... How many sightseers here?

If you keep publicising this fantastic event, this is only going to get worse,

isn't it? They're on the street and we've got the crime scene secure, so

everything's OK. What if there's evidence up here?

Penny's happy for people to stomp all over that issue. This road was built

eight years ago, after the body was buried. The body? Any evidence would

have been uncovered by the roadworks.

What was here before the road was put in?

I don't know, just a shitload of nothing, I guess. This was nothing.

There was nothing here.

Could I look down there for a second? For one minute, Bill. For one minute.

I'm not going to touch anything, please.

Okay, one minute.

One minute.

Want me to go with him?

It's fine, it's fine.

Hey, we need to talk. Uh, sure.

Uh, Sam.

Um. Yo.

Dad, Ian.

This is my boyfriend, Sam. Hello.

Pleasure to meet you, Ian. Good to meet you. Could we talk for a minute alone?

Is that okay?

Sorry, mate. It's urgent.

Do you mind, Sam?

Oh, yeah.

Go ahead and start unpacking.

I'm sorry.

What was that?

What?

No. Hey, Sam. How are you? How was the trip down? I'm sorry. What did you do

for work? How'd you meet my son?

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

But this is important.

That was important. Yes, but this is actually important because I'm talking

about the night Mags was taken. The man, okay?

Now, I know at the time you couldn't give a good description of him. Because

I was smoking weed.

It's not about that, Dean. Hey, Sam, do you want a cup of tea? I was wrong to

blame you, okay? It wasn't your fault. I'm sorry. I've said sorry a thousand

times. Get to the point.

What I'm asking you is, if you saw this man, even now...

Would you recognize him? Maybe, but how the fuck's that gonna happen?

I'm just trying to tell you that I think that this guy is local.

It's not what the police said. No, but back then that road that leads to where

Mags' body was found, it didn't exist.

So the killer would have had to carry her body in their own foot.

Right. Right. So it's very unlikely that anyone other than a local would have...

found their way in there, not carrying a body.

Happened 11 years ago, Dad.

It was 11 years ago, but these people who do this kind of shit, these child

killers, they get a thrill out of it and they try and relive that thrill whenever

they can, whenever they get a chance.

You're talking about the vigil?

Yes.

If he lives here, I'm betting he will be there.

Would you need me at...

Thank you so much.

Yeah. Hi.

Hi. Can I get you something? No, I'm Jenna.

I'm through the preserves. I've got another batch. That's if you want them.

Are you kidding? The last batch sold like hotcakes. So we must owe you money,

actually. Right.

So, Jenna. Do you want cash?

I normally deal with Imogen. Jenna. Hi.

Oh, hi.

Sal, can I get you to... Pop this out on the shelf for me. Thanks.

Ooh, you've got some more of your preserves for us.

Okay, so the payment, you'll take it out in kind, like usual?

Could I get in chicken feed, the mealworms? Sure, I'll just tally it up.

Okay. Sorry.

Sorry. It's okay. You don't mind if I leave a few of these here?

Sure thing. Please go ahead.

God, if I even think about this business, I feel sick.

What's that?

You didn't hear?

They finally found her.

Oh, it's so tragic.

Righto, the... Jenna?

Jenna, are you okay?

Jenna?

Yeah, it's... It's just very sad, isn't it?

Yeah. Yeah, sorry.

No, it's okay.

You're out early.

Um, I just went over to the co-op. I told you I'd do that.

Is everything all right?

Did you hear about this?

I hadn't heard about a vigil, but I heard about the, um... But I did hear

about the... But you heard about the girl?

Yeah, I'm sorry I didn't tell you, but I didn't want to upset you.

I'm sorry.

So it's just, it's really upsetting, isn't it? That, you know, something like

that happens.

Yeah. Hey, hey, hey, you all right?

Sorry, son.

Get inside.

Yeah.

Have a nice cup of tea or something.

Hi,

what's happening?

Isn't it time you started your chores?

I'm about to, but is Mai okay? She's fine. Yeah, she's got a migraine coming.

I want to go make her a tea with some honey in it. It always helps.

Okay. Okay.

Hey. Hey.

You okay?

Do you know what these numbers mean?

What is this?

Just tell me.

Um... Map coordinates.

You know how friends have their maps out, right?

If you don't have an address, then you can put in coordinates instead.

Like this.

So those numbers would take us somewhere on a map?

It's 40 minutes from here.

Do you want to check it out?

We can go check it out.

I should go back to the house.

Why?

It's only 40 minutes.

We can go check it out.

I'm sorry I can't.

I can't.

I can't stop thinking about that poor family.

Huh?

I think we should go to the vigil.

I don't think that's a very good idea.

I know we don't usually see people from time, but I just think we should go and

show our support.

to that ceremony.

Doc?

It's just Uncle Don.

Hello, you.

Uncle Don.

I missed you.

Missed you.

Oh, that is such a good hug.

You're so big.

Look at you.

Look, I've been thinking about you, and I heard that it was your birthday?

Yeah. Well, check it out.

What's that?

What? It's good to hear.

Can you hear the ocean?

Yeah.

Hey!

Donald.

Hello.

Beautiful.

What's happening?

Just thought I'd, um, bring a birthday gift.

Give me a look.

Oh, it's just a few odds and ends.

No child of mine is going to be wearing face makeup.

Da, it's a present.

Sarah.

Why don't you go and unpack the ute for a bit? I've got to talk to my brother.

Thank you.

I'll see you, Chook.

She's grown up.

You said...

You said at the police station you said that we should catch up. Yeah, I didn't

mean whenever you want.

Okay, fair enough.

I guess I should have called. Yeah, you should have called. There you go.

Henry, what do I have to do?

No, honestly, I just want to be part of the family.

We want that too, but today's not a good day. Jen is sick.

What's wrong? She's got a migraine. She gets them.

I'll give you a call, though, all right? I'll call you.

Don, hey.

Hello, you.

Hey.

You all right?

So-so, you know. Do you need a doctor? No, of course not.

It's just a terrible headache.

I'll live.

I've got you something.

Just a little thing.

Oh. That's nice, isn't it? Oh, it's lovely. Thank you.

Thank you.

We'd invite you in, wouldn't we? It's fine.

It's fine. I'll give you a bell. We'll get something in the diary.

I'll see you soon. Yeah, absolutely.

Thank you.

Thanks, Donny.

Thank you for getting rid of him.

Is it really?

Of course.

I have found some of my medicine from last time. No, I don't believe in that

stuff, Jane.

But it's all right for you. You're always so certain about everything.

I just feel lost.

Maybe you could...

you could have a little bit because I was thinking I might go to that

vigil on my own and represent the family.

That way you can stay here and rest.

When I come back I can tell you all about it.

So, Dino, you're going to hand out candles to everyone, all right?

There's going to be a lot of people here tonight, probably, so you're going to

have to be methodical, okay?

Make sure you see everybody's face, as many people as you can, just see if it

triggers anything.

Make sure you look in their eyes.

If I do recognise him? I'm going to be down there on the side.

I'm not going to be far from you, all right? So if you recognise him, just

give me a look, I'll be there.

This is really, really important, Dean, okay?

I'm trusting you.

Tonight, I need you to use your judgement. Yeah, I've already said I'm

gonna do it. So I don't need the pep talk.

Here you go.

Take those ones. You alright? Yeah.

Just put them together in the tent. Sure.

Ian.

What are you doing here? You got a minute?

Yeah. I just heard back about the DNA tests that we had done. We had them fast

-tracked and the results...

The results came back negative.

They don't match your daughter.

No. No, that's got to be, that's a mistake. That's a mistake.

No, they triple checked it. At this stage, the body is a Jane Doe.

Those pyjamas, they were Maggie's pyjamas. Exactly. So we are working with

the assumption that Maggie and the murdered girl were potentially taken by

the same perpetrator.

Look, we are widening the search around the forest area.

Potentially we'll find some more bodies.

Look, I'm sorry. I know the timing's not great, but you might want to shut all

this down.

Who else knows about this?

Just you and me.

Okay, can we keep it like that? I just... I want to tell Deb this myself.

Is that okay?

Yeah, sure. Of course. Makes sense. I've got to head back to forensics. I'll be

back in town tonight if you want to chat. Okay. I'm sorry, Ian.

Awesome. I have to go out. I have a late cleaning job.

And Ma?

She's taken some medicine for her migraine, which means she might be

asleep for a little while.

Last time Ma had a migraine, it wasn't anything like this.

Yeah, this is a bit of a bad one. It really hurts.

I'm going to be late, so you'll have to fix your own dinner, okay?

So... Can you lock up for me? I'll see you in the morning, okay?

You asked me to unload the ute, remember?

Yeah.

Why would you do that if you have to go out again?

Because this is a different cleaning job. They provide their own equipment

here.

I love you.

Love you.

I'm sorry

so so

Thank you.

Excuse me.

It's your kid.

Thank you, mate.

Hey. Hey. Hey.

You okay?

Yeah.

Thanks for being here, I know that.

Public displays of emotion aren't really your thing, but I'm really thankful that

you are here.

Yeah, thanks.

Go inside and do the dishes like a good little boy.

That's your job, mate. Please, you can just take me there and I'll leave you

alone and you can do whatever you want.

Oh, my God, you're a bloody legend, aren't you, mate?

Jesus, family favourite, isn't he? Tell me.

Huh?

You left the farm.

I want to go to that place on the map, like you said.

Uh, yeah, I can take you, but not now.

It has to be now.

My brother's mate is chucking a party in town and I'm going. Tommy, this is more

important than a party.

Please?

How's this? You come to the party with me and then I'll take you to your map

place straight after.

My da went out but I don't know how long he'll be gone.

You don't have to be there long.

Just check it out.

Okay.

Alright, you stay here.

There you go.

Choose your weapon.

Are we going on that?

Yeah, it's my brother's, but I ride it all the time.

Yeah.

Alright.

Alright.

So...

Get over and then put your feet on the pegs.

Thank you.

Champagne? That's disgusting.

I'm Damo.

I'm Sarah.

Are you with Tommy?

Yeah, he brought me here.

No, like, is Tommy your boyfriend?

No. You want a drink?

Yeah, sure.

Well, it's whiskey and cherry cola.

I haven't had whiskey or cherry cola.

Let's fix that.

This is really good.

Go on, mate, go on.

They talk about the stages of grief, but for me there was just an avalanche of

pain.

But in the end it did settle down into one thing.

Uncertainty.

All the terrible, terrible things you imagine when you just don't know.

Haunting me.

Maybe not every minute.

but every day of my life.

And now instead of the horrifying imagined possibilities, I hope that we

can remember Maggie as she was.

Thank you.

Excuse me, sir.

Beautiful.

Beautiful. Quirky.

Loving child who was taken from us, what did you say?

Finally, she's back.

At least her memory is in.

And for you, I'm sorry. We're so grateful for you.

Thank you, Debra and Ian, thank you.

And thank you everybody for coming.

That was great. You okay? Yeah, yeah, I'm good.

Where's Dean? I'm looking for Dave. He was getting camels up by the tent.

Dave, hi. Sorry, I thought you might have called it off.

I can find him.

Oh, fuck.

Did Ian not tell you? Tell me what? Hey, hey.

Tell me what?

We got the results from the DNA tests and it's not... Maggie, we don't know

who it is, but it's... I stopped by earlier. So... Maggie could still

be alive?

Well, it's not that simple. We don't know that. Let me get up there in front

of all of those people. You want to know what I'm actually doing? I'm trying to

catch the fucking guy who could be here tonight. Because there's every chance

he's a local and he's here tonight. That's what I'm telling you.

Deb, listen to me. Listen to you? Yes.

I've listened to you for 11 fucking years.

Drunk, sober.

I'm fucking sick of listening to you. Deb, I'm... No, just no.

Deb, Deb, Deb.

Dean, Dean, Dean.

What are you doing?

For me, what am I doing here? What are you doing? There's so many people still

here. It's over, Dad. It's not over, Dean. There are so many... Listen to me.

There are so many people here without candles. Exactly. There are so many

people here. Do you understand what tonight was about? I thought I made it

pretty fucking clear. I said use your judgment. I said use your discretion. So

it's my fault.

It's not your fault, Dean. It's not about fault, mate. This is our fucking

dad. I tried my best, okay? But it wasn't going to fucking work.

Sam, come on, let's go.

Hey. Hey.

Thought you were at the vigil.

So have I.

Okay.

So... So, you're short-staffed.

Here I am, I'm starved.

Sorry, I'm not sure what's happening.

Ian, why don't you just go home?

Be with your family.

Yeah, if I go home now, I'm going to drink.

And I'm not going to stop.

For three days.

Yeah?

I'll get you a coffee. Thanks.

You've called triple zero. Can I have your address

and the nature of your emergency, please?

I just got home and my place is trashed. I think someone's broken in. I'm sorry,

I feel stupid, but it's really scared me. No, don't feel silly for calling.

I'm glad that you called in. You feeling safe now? That's good.

The music was going right through my body.

You like that?

You've got beautiful eyes.

I'm into light.

Let me see yours.

What do you reckon? Blue or green?

Green. Yep.

Charlie! Damon!

You are naughty, mate. You are naughty.

Guess I'll just, uh, leave you two my birds to it then, eh?

Fuck off.

That shit's crazy.

Some girl got kidnapped back in the day.

Mags.

Yeah, that's why this party's on. All the olds are off having a cry.

I've seen that name.

You okay?

Hey.

Hey.

Huh? What are you so upset about?

I don't know.

I just... Get

off.

I'm sorry.

I didn't do anything. I need Tommy. I need to go. I need Tommy.

Wait, I didn't do anything.

You've called triple zero. Can I have your address?

It's a call this number for help and so I called it. It's okay.

Breathe, breathe. It's okay. You've done the right thing. If there's an

emergency, you've done the right thing, all right? It is an emergency. I went to

a party and now I'm lost and I'm sick and I don't know how I'm going to get

home again.

Okay. Well, you know what? The good news is you're not lost anymore, okay?

Because I can see your location.

You can see me? That's right.

You're in a phone booth in Port McKenna, aren't you?

I can see you. How can you see me? Well, I've got you on my screen here, and

you're not so far from where I am.

What's your name? Can you tell me your name? Oh, wait, who are you?

Well, my name is Ian, and I work for the 000 Emergency Service. Now, you tell me,

what's your name?

Can you tell me your name? Sarah.

Sarah. Sarah.

Maybe it's Mags. I don't know.

I can't remember.

Did you say Mags?

Can you say again, please?

Can you say again? I don't know. I don't know. Maybe it's Maggie.

Maggie?

Can you say Maggie?

I can't remember anything.

Maggie, is it you?

Maggie, is it you?

Maggie, it's Dad. It's Dad.

Maggie, stay there, please. Stay right there, okay? I'm coming for you. It's

Dad. I'm coming for you.

Lydia, keep line 12 open and monitored no matter what. Okay.

Bye.
