Original subtitles

So you and Ellie OK?

Oh, in theory, we're fine.

Thank you for my stars.

Thanks for my bird.

You're welcome.

They've done a good job.

Oh, yeah, it's very pretty.

Not too bad yourself.

Thank you.

Secrets are stupid.

So you want me to tell theworld you're in love with Jess?

I don't get the whole you and Toby thing.

I guess he's the most loyalhuman being I've ever met.

He would do anything forsomebody he loved or a friend.

Let's just get out of here.

I can't just drop everything because you turn up.

Fine.

Darren.

DARREN: It's fine.

MATT MARIONE: I've been thinking,

maybe the complicated stage is the good bit.

And then if you can just get through that,

maybe it gets better.

JESS DAILEY: Can you just think about it?

TOBY DELANEY: No. JESS DAILEY: Why not?

Darren's out of town again, isn't he?

Yeah, well--

There you go.

OK, you-- you have nothing on tomorrow.

I know, I checked.

No clients, no tour group.

Uh, I've got stuff.

We've got stuff.

Don't we, Mike?

Well--

We've got stuff.

Please, I need your help.

Oh, you need my help?

That's funny.

Whenever I need your helpand Darren's in town,

I get message banned.

That is not true.

Uh, yeah, it is true.

And when I want to talk to you about my family

situation, which is notthe greatest at the moment,

it's like--

Jack, what is the name of thatfilm where the-- the-- the mum

does the yum yum with the young guy?

- Yum yum? - "The 'Graduate."

With Mrs. Robinson.

Right, when my mom's doing a Mrs. Robinson,

do you help me talk?

What's going on?

It's a state of urgency.

There's going to be beef.

Toby, I didn't know you wanted me to talk.

I'm done being your stand-in boy, Jess.

I'm not taking ya.

[phone rings]

Would you get out of your bum for one second.

I'm not in my bum.

JESS DAILEY: I can't believe you're--

Look at them.

Yes, they really like each other.

Yeah, wouldn't it be good toargue with someone like that

again?

ALL: Mm.

Toby, Mom wanted you there when

I looked for the time capsule.

She insisted.

Well, why don't you get Daza to take you?

Get him out of the mine. - I can't--

I'm not going.

Toby.

Tobe?

Jess, Jess, Jess.

[theme music]

THEME SONG: Take me to thatopen, silent space where

the earth breathes your name.

Meet me underneath the starlight sky.

All our troubles fade away.

Hold me now as the golden sunlight

warms across your face.

La la la.

I'm fine. I just--

No, you were just bleeding with your head.

You should really stop doing that.

You OK?

What, me?

Yeah.

Oh, yeah, I'm tops, mate.

I'm sorry.

I just-- I just wanted some help.

But it's fine.

I can go alone.

NATALIE ANDERSON: Where are you going?

I got a box of st-- mom'sstuff last night that, um,

Aunty Di sent me from Perth.

You ever hear about thetime capsule she made us?

NATALIE ANDERSON: No.

JESS DAILEY: We were kids.

Mom said it was a markingpoint of our lives,

to wish for something we hoped would come

true when we were grown up.

Me, Mike, and Toby, and thewhole class, we put a wish in.

Mom left a letter too.

HEAVEN: My dearest [non-english],,

if you're reading this, itprobably means I've gone

and joined with the carbonthat makes up the stars,

or maybe I finally lost my mindand can't remember anything.

But I don't want to forgetthis, the time capsule.

When Saturn is at its lowest point,

you have to take dig it up, please.

In the last days of Aquarius,you and Toby must find it.

NATALIE ANDERSON: The last days of Aquarius?

What does that mean?

It means now.

We've got to find the capsulein the next two days if we--

if we want what we wished for to come true.

Toby, please, why don'tyou want to come with me?

Don't you want to know what--

what we wished for back then?

No one cares what they wishedfor when they were seven, Jess.

I don't need a lightsaber anymore.

Well, I'm going to find the capsule,

mom left some clues, so--

Yeah, well you won't find anything.

Why are you being so nasty?

I'm not.

I'm being realistic.

Your mum, I'm sorry, but she was a nut.

She's probably hid that thingwhere you'll never find it.

Ah, what?

[music playing]

MAN: OK, Mike, you're on in 5, 4, 3, 2.

Hello, desert wanderers.

I'm sitting in for Rodneythe next few nights.

I am The Love Roo.

And that's what I'm here totalk about, no not roos, love.

I've been told that the next fewdays are a good time to love,

to get something you've always wanted.

Emotions, well, they will run hot.

But is that true love, passion, and fire?

Time, it can stand still, orit can trick you into waiting.

Take a chance.

Inhibitions, well, they should disappear.

You may think your heart is broken.

But the heart is thestrongest organ in the body.

If you really lovesomething and always have,

what will you do for it?

They say the universe rewards action.

What action are you going to take?

And if you love something,will it last forever?

Should it last forever?

Is your love flourishing and green in full bloom?

Or has it grown thorns?

Call me, my number is 7 0 1 0 6 2 8 9.

Tell the Love Roo what you think.

Hi.

Hi.

I saw the light on.

And, uh, I had a late game of--

Netball?

How'd you go?

Yeah, we lost.

But better, only by 20 goals.

Oh, that's good for you guys.

Um, I thought maybe tomorrownight, uh, if you like,

I will--

I'd like to cook you dinner.

Dinner?

Yeah, sort of as a thank youfor everything you've done.

Well, you've done a lot for me too.

Oh, just-- just--

just dinner.

It's Monday.

You could close the bar early.

And, uh, I could make a late supper at 9:30.

OK.

OK, good.

HUGH DELANEY [ON RADIO] Oh, hello

is this, um, the love roo?

Yeah, mate, you're on the air.

Who am I talking to?

Oh, this is Hu--

um, um, Captain Moonlight.

Well, Cap, can you help me?

HUGH DELANEY [ON RADIO] Well, uh, no,

mate, I don't think I can.

Um, can't tell anybody what love is.

But, uh, I know you can be just cruising along,

and then something real happens.

And [inaudible].

Continue upside down again.

See, I-- I've got a problem, mate.

MICHAEL ANDERSON [ONRADIO]: What's that, Cap?

HUGH DELANEY [ON RADIO]Well, what do you do when--

when love goes?

What do you do with the space left behind?

How's your head?

It's fine.

No bad dreams or anything?

No.

I was thinking, um, if it was not too late,

then I really would like to head out with you

and find that time capsule.

So did she-- um, did she give you a hint

on where to start looking?

She said something aboutsetting at its lowest point,

and Digger's Creek.

OK, show me where to go.

Hey, why are you being so nice?

Strange, isn't it?

Yeah.

Maybe it was the smack in the head.

Come on, time's wasting, [inaudible]..

You know, dinner was a really good idea.

It's a little bit 1950s, but really good idea.

What do you mean?

Oh, so by the way, you'renot going to wear that tonight,

are you?

I can choose my own top.

PATRICK: OK, just don't choose that top.

You should wear somethingsoft tonight, I think.

I'm just making dinner for afriend, that's all I'm doing.

[chuckle] - Yeah.

What do you mean he he he he, yeah?

Oh, Helen, dinner is never just dinner.

Well, it is to me.

Come on, you asked himout in your netball outfit.

I was just coming back from a game, I just--

He's not going to say no toyou in your netball outfit.

I mean, he's only human for God's sake.

Go away, go and haunt someone else.

I'm just trying to help you.

Well, I don't need your help.

I'm not doing anything.

Right.

Well, and if I did needyour help, I wouldn't listen.

Because your help has ruined every man I've ever met.

I saved you dozens of times.

But I suppose only so muchyou can do with a bucket

on the Titanic, isn't there?

I don't see you.

I don't hear you.

You are not here anymore.

Why don't you justadmit that you like Jack,

and the dinner is all about you and Jack?

You are not here. I don't see you.

Well, why don't you just admit it?

Come on, Helen.

Where's Pat?

Oh, look, he's not here.

Oh, he's gone.

I'm not gone.

What's going on, mate?

Yeah, when I ask someonefor dinner, it's usually--

it's usually not dinner, you know?

It's usually--

[bark]

Yeah, that's exactly what it is.

TOBY DELANEY: That's Digger's Creek?

JESS DAILEY: I think so.

Can you read Heaven's clue again?

"The sign is worn and almost lost.

Everything's old and worth the cost."

Any idea what that means?

Nope.

"Underneath Saturn at its lowest mark,

see the tree, bare and stark."

Which tree?

[laughs]

TOBY DELANEY: Hey, well,couldn't Heaven have just

told us where she buried it?

You know her.

Everything's a journey.

Yeah.

Getting dressed, making breakfast, going

to Woolies, all a journey.

Anyway, we're here now.

We may as well see what we can spot.

Come on.- OK, I've got the water.

JESS DAILEY: --"tree, bare and stark."

Hey, while we're at this, whydon't you tell me everything

that you don't like about me?

Toby, I don't want to want to--

Hey, this is the only chanceyou're ever going to get, Jess.

You know?

No witnesses, no fights, nothing.

You can let it all out.

JESS DAILEY: Let it out.

TOBY DELANEY: Let it out.

Helen.

Helen.

Oh, hi, Natalie.

What are you doing?

I've just been shopping.

I'm cooking Jack a dinner.PATRICK: Hey, Helen!

Helen!

Oh, I didn't know you liked to cook.

I'm not going anywhere!NATALIE ANDERSON: Sounds nice.

PATRICK: [SINGING] I'm still here.

Where are you to make it?

In the restaurant?

Yeah, Jack said that would be all right.

Helen!

Helen.

Helen, Helen, look at me.

Look at me.

Whoa!

What?

Helen?

Now that's what I call a drive by.

Helen, what's the matter?

Nothing, nothing.

[theme music]

Jess, why do you think your mum wanted

me to find this with you?

Do you have any idea?

No.

Hey, look at this.

Starkley's Hollow, see the tree bare and stark,

Saturn at its lowest mark.

A hollow?

Look, it's worth a shot.

OK.

Let's do that.

It's on-- it's on our way back to town anyway.

[phone beeps]

You OK?

Oh, Darren.

It's just-- I'm trying to figure it out and--

Jess, must see you tomorrow.

Please confirm.

Just-- oh, he's acting so we--

uh, like he keeps rocking into town,

and expecting me to drop everything.

What?

And you-- and you don't?

No, I don't.

So now he's texting in advance.

But his message is a--

you know?

I think he wants to break up with me.

Really?

Oh, don't act so sad.

Here, give me the keys.

You know, I remember you and Mike

putting in your little notes all secretly.

Surely you remember whatyou put in the time capsule?

No.

Remember, I put-- um, Iput the little yellow duck?

Quackhead.

Quackhead!

TOBY DELANEY: What did you wish for?

JESS DAILEY: Never mind.

TOBY DELANEY: David Bowie?

[laughing]

What if this dinner isn't just dinner?

What if this dinner is more than dinner?

You gotta-- you gotta--

you gotta look both ways before you cross,

you know what I mean?

I mean, what do you think?

Should I-- should I cross the street?

Do you have an opinion?

[chewing]

No, of course you don't.

You're just here for the treats.

What is it?

I don't know.

I didn't see it last night.

Oh, you have a secret admirer.

Well, some people get flowers,some chocolates, you get metal.

My not so secret admirer.

JESS DAILEY: Oh, that justabout covers Starkley's Hollow.

Hey, Tobes, I just thought of something.

And I don't know why Ididn't think of this before.

But remember there used tobe a Digger's Creek in Alice?

Was there?

Yeah, remember the oldfella, um, Johnny Marble?

Yeah, I remember Johnny Marble.

JESS DAILEY: He had a dog.

TOBY DELANEY: Digger.

Yeah?

JESS DAILEY: He used to swim in the runoff

in the ranges behind town.

TOBY DELANEY: Digger's Creek.

No one's called it that for years.

JESS DAILEY: Yeah, but when mom wrote the clues

everyone called it that.

OK, I have lemon grass, sea salt, oyster sauce.

Oh, I don't have oyster sauce.

That's not good.

Right, well, she's got, uh, Tequila.

And she's got, ooh, clams.

"Diced clams in naturaljuice," That's close enough.

It's just dinner.

I mean, it's just--

it's just food.

It's just-- yeah.

Ooh, right, back on track.

Hugh, are you out of your mind?

Yeah.

I thought you were getting better about me.

Yeah, two steps forward, one step back.

This is a step back?

I guess.

Well, you may as well take it.

They are going to fire you if they

find you breaking up your car.

No, no, somebody vandalized it.

I thought maybe you coulduse it in one of your--

you know.

I thought of something else too.

Oh, Hugh, Hugh.

Here, put that in.

Call it, uh, don't look back.

Dedicate the piece to me.

OK, thanks.

I thought maybe we could talk sometime?

Sure.

NATALIE ANDERSON: Everything OK?

Good, I'm using a recipe by Sami Choy.

Do you know him?

No.

Mm, mm, that's good.

I'm fairly good.

I didn't know you were that keen on Jack.

What?NATALIE ANDERSON: Don't worry.

I'll be out of your way in a couple of minutes.

Oh, this-- this dinner's not--

I-- I'm just saying thank you.

Be careful.

My dinner with Will didn'twork out too well, remember?

We broke up the next day.

Things were going OK, then dinner.

Oh, I've got no things with Jack.

Actually, dinner was OK too.

It was just afterwards, what it meant.

What did it mean?

It meant other dinners, future dinners.

Brandy, I need more brandy.

Got any brandy?

Sure.

Just the cheapest you've got.

I'm cooking with it.

Do you want a glass or a bottle?

A glass will be fine, thanks.

Cheers.

OK, Helen, you've got to see this.

Hey, fellas.

How's it hanging?

Oh, my god.

JESS DAILEY: "Underneath Saturn at its last mark,

see the tree, bare and stark.

Then 10 paces north of Digger's Creek,

buried there, the capsule you seek."

OK, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

Beneath the rocks your hearts unlock.

Shit, shit.

This food stinks and I'm drunk.

Pat was right.

Everyone was right.

Why am I doing this?

Why am I doing this?

[phone beeps]

[sigh]

What's his problem?

Told you, he's--

he's gone.

Give it here.

Why?

Come on.

Toby.

Now he's gone.

Oh, hey.

Are you going to sit there, or are you

going to help me dig this up?

TOBY DELANEY: Can we not do this tonight?

It's still going to be here in the morning.

It's underground.

Why don't you want to dig it up, Toby?

I just want a couplemore hours with ya, Jess.

No distractions, or searches,or clues, or phones, just us.

We'll find it in the morning.

[toilet flushes]

Look at this.

They're right.

Dinner's not dinner.

JESS DAILEY: Hey, look at that one there.

Yeah.

I think that maybe Heaven wantedme to find the time capsule

with you because shewanted us to spend the day

together when we were grown up.

I think that maybe was her wish.

She was a devious hippie.

I guess she liked me.

She liked you.

MICHAEL ANDERSON [ON RADIO]:With Saturn at its lowest point

in the last days ofAquarius, it's a perfect time

to get what you wish for.

But not for me.

All day I've been tryingto figure out what love is.

But I've gotten nothing.

Give me a call, let me know if you have come up

with something to help me out.

OK, what do you want to talk about?

MICHAEL ANDERSON [ON RADIO]:Hello, you're on the air.

Is there anyone there?

Oh, yeah, yeah, I'm--

I'm-- uh, I'm here.

It's, uh, it's Captain Moonlight.

MICHAEL ANDERSON [ON RADIO]:Hey, Cap, you're back.

Yeah, um, well, I've been thinking,

about what-- uh, what we weretalking about last night,

about love.

You see, um, you see Imarried my wife when I was--

I was was very young.

I loved her, I really did.

But, uh, but I never loved her so--

so that it took her breath away.

I didn't know how to until--

until my son-- our son was born.

I think that was the first time I--

I ever really fell in love,understood what it was.

Wow.

HUGH DELANEY: Loving someoneso much didn't seem possible.

Knowing that if anythingever happened to her, I--

I'd-- I'd have to stop.

You know?

Just stop.

Because I wouldn't know how to go on.

I loved my wife, I did.

But, uh, I never loved her like that.

And I think she wanted to be.

All right, Walter, time to go.

Yeah, all right.

Say hi to the Mrs. all right?

No worries.

Helen?

[moan]

Helen.

That's what happened to my brandy, hey.

[snoring]

Oh, smells good.

Oh, it's not bad, Hel.

Mm, in fact, it's bloody terrific.

Mm.

Ros with chicken, mm, different.

Bold choice, but somehow it works.

Yes, lovely.

How did we end up here?

I mean, two days ago we were fighting

and knocking each other out.

Just crazy.

Is it?

Yeah.

And a-- um, in a very, very, very good way.

Yeah, yeah.

Hey.

Come on in, Mike.

Tobe's not here.

He didn't come home last night.

Yeah, what are you doing?

Trying not to make a messof one thing in my life.

Are you moving out?

Yeah, just to a motel for a couple of days,

until I find my own place.

Tell Toby I'll give him acall when I get settled, hey?

Well, let me help you with those.

Oh, thanks.

I need a Panadol.

And a Keith Richards.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Oh, that's disgusting.

That food last night with delicious.

Oh, rubbish.

No, it was.

I was going to wake you, but, um--

I passed out.

Yeah, didn't think Ishould disturb you, you know?

You know, I mean, the chicken was just--

with a touch of--

Just-- just before weforget, there's something

I want to ask you.

Did you think dinner was just dinner?

Yeah, no.

Oh, god.

Was it just dinner?

Well, I thought so.

Everyone kept on saying that it--

No, no, that's-- that's all right

if you wanted the dinner to be just dinner,

then yeah, it was dinner.

And it was good, good.

Oh, Jack, I don't know.

I mean, maybe I do wantmore than dinner, you know?

I just want to make a difference for someone.

I was with a man for too long who

couldn't give a damn about me.

He could take me or leave me.

I don't do that.

Get up, you idiot.

I can see you there.

Really?

So I'm back from the dead, so to speak.

Man trouble?

Don't gloat.

Missy, I would never gloatabout anything that serious.

I suppose it is my fault that you

screwed up with all those men.

I'm messing it up all by myself.

We had a pretty good fight, didn't we?

You're the only person I have good fights with.

You know, if you really love me--

really love me-- you'd go when I ask you to.

Oh, no.

When you love someone, set them free.

Isn't that what the song says?

No, that song is crap.

I believe in Jewish mother love.

If you love someone, hang on forever.

What's wrong?

I saw you with Hugh last night.

Are you following me?

No, I was looking for you.

I didn't know where you were, so I couldn't

have been following you.

And then I found you in Hugh's car.

We were just talking.

I guess this is it.

Yeah.

[phone beeps]

My phone.

[phone beeps]

Oh, no.

What's the matter?

Darren, he's here.

He's on a survey just outside Alice.

Jess--

Toby, I've got to go.

Um, you can't.

We've got to dig this up.

I can't leave him waiting though.

I'm sorry.

I'll call.

What are you going to say to him?

I don't know.

I'll call you.

Sorry.

As soon as Jessstarted talking about it,

I knew exactly where it was.

So did I.

We were there when Heaven buried it.

Yeah.

Your dad said you didn'tcome home last night.

TOBY DELANEY: No.

What about Darren?

I think they're going to break up.

The other night, after I hit my head,

I woke up and saw this old guystanding at the end of my bed.

MICHAEL ANDERSON: Who was it?

I don't know, but think it was me as an old man.

You whacked your headharder than I thought, mate.

I think he was there to warn me.

MICHAEL ANDERSON: About what?

Life without Jess, of ending up alone.

It's why I spent yesterdaywith her, just to see

if we could have something.

Darren.

TOBY DELANEY: I had to find out.

Come on, let's open this up.

What's wrong?

[music playing]

[SINGING] [non-english]

Oh, god.

You're not still in--

Oh, no.

TOBY DELANEY: You sure?

No worries.

[theme music]
