The Secret Daughter
SO1EO1 "Flame Trees"

Kids out driving Saturday afternoon

Pass me by

I'm just savouring familiar sights

We share some history

this town and I

And I can't stop that
long-forgotten feeling of him

Time to book a room to stay tonight

Oh-oh

Number one is to find some friends
to say "You're doing well

After all this time
you boys look just the same"

Ah, number two is the happy hour
at one of two hotels

Settle in to play
"Do you remember so and so?"

Number three is
never say his name�

Dad?

And, oh, the flame trees
will blind the weary driver

And there's nothing else
could set fire to this town

There's no change, there's no pace

Everything within its place

Just makes it harder to believe

that he won't be around�

Billie, they're going nuts.

Come on, let's get out there.

Oooh, yeah, looking good.

Give me a kiss.

Let's do this.

Hey!

Are you ready to rock, Walperinga?
Come on! Yeah!

One, two, one, two.

Creeps that keep crawling
Drunks that keep falling�

Stop throwing bottles, dipshit.

Shove it up your arse.

Off the stage, Reggie.
No backstage passes allowed.

Good on you, Billie!

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Get your rocks off
Get your rocks off, honey

Shake it now, now
Get 'em off downtown

Get your rocks off
Get your rocks off, honey

Shake it now, now
Get 'em off downtown

Get your rocks off
Get your rocks off, honey, yeah.

Hey, Carmine.

Jack.

Sorry, mate.
I must've fallen asleep.

I want you to give this to Jamie.

But wait a couple of days
before you do, OK?

Yeah. Where� Where are you going?

Just keep an eye
on the place for me.

Play the video

Billie?

Bill?

- Dad?
- It wasn't my fault, I swear to God.

- What are you talkin' about?
- Bruno. He's gonna have my nuts.

He's gonna grab 'em,
he's gonna yank 'em,

he's gonna pull 'em
as hard as he can.

- Dad, what happened?
- I stuck to the speed limit.

I didn't get stopped by the cops.

I was just out of town.
Then I don't know what happened.

You've got to help me, baby.

- Get out of the bushes.
- OK.

How many times are you
gonna let Gus screw up?

Dad! Can I handle it this time?

- What are you gonna do?
- I'm gonna break his legs.

Thank you.
Hope to see you again soon.

- Thank you so much.
- Bye.

Bye.

- Susan, where is he?
- Who?

- Dad.
- Your dad?

Yeah, your husband. About so tall?

Well, I haven't seen him. He must've
come down before I woke up.

I thought he'd just be doing
his rounds.

Have you checked the kitchen?
Dining room? Down in the bar?

Yeah. He's nowhere in the hotel.

- Maybe he just went for a walk.
- Wouldn't think so.

We've got a meeting on with the
Open Sea people. He even set it up.

Why don't you let me take care
of them and you go find him?

No, it's alright.

Chris, it's what I do. Meet and
greet. Smile and small talk.

That's why he married me.
That and true love.

Where are you, Dad?

Jamie, get up.

Phew. Mate, you need to open
a window or something.

Mmm�

Have you got company?

I guess not.

Hey, have you seen Dad?

No, I haven't seen him
since last night.

- What's wrong?
- Nothin'. Just�

He's not answering his phone

and now Susan's in the meeting with
Open Sea and I need to get in there.

- Can you find him?
- Yeah, sure. Just, um�

- Just let me get dressed.
- Yeah.

Jamie, every day, mate. If you wanna
live here, you've got to help out.

I can't do everything.

Dad?

Hey, Dad?

- He's not here, Jamie.
- Did he say where he went?

You look like crap.

Aren't you meant to be
at school, Harriet?

Got a free first period.
Aren't you meant to be sober?

Only on Wednesdays.

Did you see him at all this morning?

No, but he left me this.

Love you, Harry
ALWAYS Dad

That's really nice.

- He's OK, yeah?
- He's fine. I'm sure it's nothing.

Probably lost in thought somewhere.

I'll find him.

Get to school.

You gotta learn something.

Whatevs.

Susan, Chris and Jamie

Don't know why
we gotta go there.

- Come on, Billie.
- Dad, Bruno gave you a lot of chances.

And you promised
you wouldn't screw up again.

I've gotta get to work
and you just have to talk to him.

He's gonna have my balls.

Can you please stop talking about
your balls?

If he doesn't,
that daughter of his will.

She's a scary mutt, Billie.

You think about it, why do they
want to meet us at the workshop?

- We should just turn around, babe.
- No!

I'm not getting you out
of it this time.

- You have to face the music.
- I don't wanna face the music.

I hate the music.

I don't see Bruno.
Can you see Bruno? I can't see Bruno.

- This is not good, darling�
- You'll be fine.

- Me blood type's A positive.
- Just go.

Mr Carter. G'day.

Yeah. Lloyd, Rachel.
Good day for it.

Um, is, uh, Bru�

- Is Bruno�
- No, he's not here.

All you had to do was drive
to Sydney, drop the car off�

and get a train back.

Sounds easy when you say it.

Do you know how long I worked
on that Commodore?

How many hours I put in it?

A lot, eh?

- Looked great.
- Do you know how much it cost?

Well�

Bruno did steal the car for you
to rebirth, Rachel�

so, I mean, technically�

it cost� nothin'.

We'd sold it for 20 grand.

Oh!

Dad!

- Get up!
- Oh!

Car. Get out of here, girl.

Go!

Go. Go, go. Go.

- Billie, fence!
- I know! I know! I know!

Good girl. Good girl.

You really stuffed
that one up, Lloyd.

Yeah. Yeah, I'll be right.

He can run.

- Oi!
- Hey.

- See anyone?
- No.

I got Dad hiding at the millers' shed
until I can work things out with Bruno.

You can't keep
doing this, Bill.

- Don't start.
- Gus has to solve his own shit.

- He can't keep dragging you in.
- I know.

I've tried to make him.

Where are you gonna find 20 grand?

I don't know.

They were beating on him, Layla.
I had to do somethin'.

By runnin' 'em over?

I wish I could've seen their faces.

Mmm.

Eh, you'll find a way out of this.

You always do, Bill.

Thanks.

- Catch you later, eh?
- Yeah. Take care.

Ta-da.

"Dear all.

I'm just going away for a few days
while I still can.

There are things in my life that I have
not had the courage to say to you all�

and I'm trying to put things right
before it's too late.

I'll explain it all when I get back.
Love, Dad. Jack. "

Impeccable timing, Dad�

�as always.

Did Dad ever talk to you about
something like this?

No.

You have no idea where he's gone?

We'll be OK, Susan. I'll make
some calls. We'll find him.

All you want is
what you can't have

And if you just look around, man
You see you got magic

So just sit back and relax
Enjoy it while you still have it

Don't look back on life, man,
and only see tragic

Because you could be
better than that

Don't let it get the better�
Oh!

Oh, my god.

Oh� Oh�

- You sure you're OK?
- Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, nothing seems broken.
Just caught me with your mirror.

I'm so sorry.

I never saw you.

I reckon I should take you
to the docs.

No, no. Really, I'm fine.

This isn't from gettin' hit.

- I couldn't help noticing that beer.
- You want one?

If I could.

My name's Jack. What's your name?

Billie Carter.

Pleased to meet ya, Billie Carter.

Billie: Running late, don't panic.
CU soon:)

Do you like living here?

- I have a job I like.
- What do you do?

- I work in a bakery.
- A baker? That's great.

And I sing in a band.
Oh!

Walperinga's better
than heaps of places we've lived.

But�

What?

I had a dream about it, you know.

You know, you don't have to
stay here. I'll be fine.

I can head back to town when I want.

I'm not leaving you out here.

- But your dad, you said he's�
- No, he's alright.

He can look after himself
for a while.

I spent some time here more than�

25 years ago.

I had a daughter.

Hey, she's Koori. What's her name?

Dunno. Never met her.

Never even knew she existed
till months later.

I tried to call, you know,
when I found out back then but�

�they'd gone.

Weedy.

That was her mum.
That's what I called her.

We had two months together.

Two good months.

Then the guilts got me
and I went home to my family.

I've been a selfish man.

- Did they ever find out?
- About my daughter?

Never had the guts
to tell 'em till now.

So I've come out here
to make amends first�

for never haven't helped, you know.

But Weedy's grave's in there�

and I've got no idea
where our daughter is.

Don't even know
if she's still alive.

You know, she'd be about your age.

You wouldn't be my daughter,
would ya?

Heard in town about me,
came out here looking for me?

And run you over? No, Jack.

That's too bad.

You'd have been the perfect
secret daughter.

If I had nothing at all

We'd know where deep I'd fall

I still believe
that I'd hold my head up

And I'll never stop
I'll always find where I belong

'Cause I know where I came from

Yeah, I've realised
it's not a place on�

Jack?

Jack?

Dad?

Dad?

Dad.

- You alright?
- Yeah, yeah, I'm right. You right?

- I'm right. You right?
- Yeah, I'm right!

I tried calling ya
but me phone ran out of battery.

Bruno's mutt came around yesterday.

- Let's get out of here.
- OK.

Look, Dad, I've been thinkin'
about what to do.

Like you always do, kid.

Come on, we'll be right.

Dad call me!

Jamie. You OK?
Missed you at breakfast.

It's not like Dad to
turn off his phone and ignore me.

I've called all his friends.
They've heard nothing.

Yeah, look, he told me to wait a couple
of days but since he's not answering�

Play the video

Oh�

Hey Mopey, how you doin'?

I wasn't sure Chris would understand
or your stepmum�

but I think you will.

You have a sister no-one knows about.

Oh�

"If I find her�

�I need to make
things right with her�

�the family�

�soothe my soul, that sort of thing. "

- Good afternoon.
- Good afternoon.

Hello. Susan Norton.

Yes.

What?

Susan?

Susan?

He's gone.

It must be a mistake.

What was he even doing out there?

And why was he flying?

He was in no condition to fly.

I better call the school,
tell Harriet.

In a news update,
the pilot of the doomed chopper

has been formally identified
as Jack Darcy Norton.

The hotel tycoon was returning home
from Walperinga when tragedy struck.

Mr Norton was known as a proficient
helicopter pilot�

with over 30 years' experience.

That's him.
That's the guy I talked to.

- Rolex guy?
- This is awful!

- Maybe, maybe not.
- Knock it off, Layla. He's dead.

And nobody knows
that he left you this.

So� give it to Bruno.

- No, I can't do that.
- Why not?

- 'Cause it's stealing.
- But he left it for you.

It wasn't an accident.

It solves everything.
Your dad'll be square�

- No, I don't know.
- What?

You reckon it just
fell off his wrist?

Babe, he wanted you to have it,
so use it to fix your life.

Harriet?

You there?

Harriet?

Mum?

- You OK?
- Yeah.

How you doing?

Mum.

Don't cry.

If I can find her,
I'd like to make reparations.

You know�

�soothe my soul,
that sort of thing.

Why didn't you show me this before?

- I'm showing you now.
- You've been away for three years.

You're back two months
and he leaves this with you?

Do you even know
where this Walperinga is?

Yeah, I looked it up.
It's about four hours west.

There's some mines nearby.

Maybe Dad was working out there
when�

How could Dad do that to Mum?

Look, what's done is done.

Do you really think this woman
could still be there?

Dad thought so.

I'm gonna drive out and see.

And what will you do if you find
this, um� daughter?

I don't know.

Talk to her.

OK.

If she's legit,
I reckon you offer her something.

- Maybe 25 grand.
- What for?

- To go away.
- Chris�

Unless you want to give her
a cut of all this.

- Hey, Carm. Have you got a sec?
- Yeah, sure, mate. What's up?

When you and Dad worked the mines,

did you ever work at a place
called Walperinga?

Walperinga? Hmm.
That was a while back.

Yeah, for about, uh, six months.

- Dad know a woman there?
- Jamie�

- Please, Carm.
- Jamie�

It's important.

Who was she?

We all know your dad�

�played his cards pretty close
to his chest. You know that.

I can't say for sure.

We used to call her 'Popsicle Toes'

'cause she�

She painted all her
toenails a different colour.

Poppy for short.
Worked in the canteen.

Had a white house on Norwich Hill.

Jamie�

�your dad ended it.

He loved your mum.

Yeah?

Head straight
along Walperinga Road and town.

Can I help you?

Are you Poppy Reynolds?

- Do I know you?
- No.

But I think you knew my dad.

Hey, Bruno.
Yeah, Miss Carter's here.

- I looked it up online.
- A Rolex?

It's worth 20 grand. And then
I'll bring Dad in to apologise.

You OK with that, Mr Rossi?

He ever gets in my way again,
you get him out of town. Understand?

Do we have a deal?

Yeah.

Where the hell did she get a Rolex?

- Chris.
- Hey, mate.

- You left a message?
- Yeah. It's a dead end.

Poppy swears she never had a kid with
Dad. Says they never slept together.

- And you believe her?
- I do. Wouldn't have a reason to lie.

What are you going to do now?

I'll ask around a bit more.

If I can't find anything,
I'll be back tomorrow.

Long, tall Sally's
gonna be with Slim

And short, fat Fanny's gonna
She's gonna be there too

Short, fat Fanny

And this is what I'm gonna do

I've got to put a call to you

'Cause I feel good tonight

And everything is gonna be
right, right, right

I'm gonna have a good time tonight

Rock'n'roll music
gonna play all night

Come on, baby, it won't take long

Only take a minute
just to sing my song.

Thank you, Walperinga.
We'll be back in five.

Oh!

Oh! I'm sorry.

- My fault.
- No, no, no, no.

- It was my fault. Let me, um�
- It was just soda water.

- I didn't mean to�
- I know.

Uh, so, did you like the music?

Yeah. It's great for a pub band.

For a pub band?

Alright, mate?
Come on, B. We're on.

So, you coming back tomorrow?

No, I got to check on Dad.

Shorty still has him hiding
in the back room.

- Yeah, OK.
- OK.

- See you, babe.
- Ta-da.

- See you, girl.
- Mwah.

- See you in the mornin'.
- Can you get the lights for me, please?

- Yeah.
- Thank you.

Sorry about before.

That line about the pub band.

I didn't mean it like it sounded.

Your voice is� amazing.

Like, really amazing.

Seriously.

Did I tell you you're amazing?

Can I buy you a drink?

I never understood why people work
their guts out when they're young

and retire when they're too old
to do anything.

Shouldn't we live a little first�

climb Machu Picchu, run with
the bulls, skydive in France?

Man, I must sound like
a spoilt little rich kid.

No. I wish I could do all of that.

Oh, you've never travelled?

Not even with, uh, old mate?

Dad? Nah.

Unless you count Mudgee.
We went there for a gig once.

- And so you're home now?
- Credit card's maxed out.

I was worried about my dad.
That's why I really came home.

What happened to him?

He got sick.

I'm sorry.

Actually, he came up here
a few days ago.

Oh. Was he the guy in the helicopter?

- I'm sorry about him.
- Yeah.

Look, I better get going.
Got an early start in the morning.

Yeah, I got a�
I got a long drive too.

Thanks for talking.

- It was nice to meet you, Billie.
- You too, Jamie.

- You know, I was thinkin'�
- Here we go.

It wasn't luck that you met Jack.

- He got you out of a jam.
- No? What was it, Layla?

- Fate.
- Fate?

Let me tell you about fate.
Jack's son rocked up last night.

Was he the one at the bar?
Oh, was he lookin' for that watch?

I don't know,
but I wasn't about to ask him.

- Do you think I'm an idiot?
- What's the matter?

You thought I wasn't gonna check?

- Mr Rossi. You're like a mind-reader.
- Yeah.

This is great.
Can I have it back?

What are you doing?

Your Rolex is a fake.

Is everything alright here?

Yeah, yeah, Fred. Just talking shop.
Everything's all good.

Thanks, mate. Have a good day.

If your dad doesn't come to see me
within the hour�

I'm gonna hunt him down like the dog
he is, do you understand that?

Yeah. OK, Mr Rossi.

Not the best day to walk to work,
was it?

Layla, I gotta get me and Dad
out of here.

Mate, are you Jamie Norton?

- Yeah.
- Sergeant Fred Doherty.

We spoke on the phone.

Mate, I've got your, uh�
your father's belongings here.

Sorry about your loss.

Thanks.

Hey, mate?

I was just checking around
about my dad.

I was wondering,
did he ever come in here?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I wasn't workin' but I heard he
spent most of his time with Billie.

She sings in my band. Great girl.

What happened, bub?

The watch was a fake, Dad.
Bruno's coming after you.

We gotta find another way
to get his money.

Meet ya at the car.

Mr Rossi, I swear I had no�

Hey.

Hey.

You spoke with my dad when he
was here. Why didn't you tell me?

I didn't know what to say.
I should've. I'm sorry.

- What did you talk about?
- Can it wait?

- I'm kind of in a rush here�
- Please.

Chances are you were
the last person to see him.

I really need to know
what you talked about.

Look, we just talked, that's all.
It wasn't anything special.

- See, I'd hit him with my car.
- What?

He was OK.
That's how we met.

Were you the one he called Mopey
when you were a kid?

Did my dad tell you why he came
to Walperinga?

- He was looking for his daughter.
- Did he find her?

No. He found out that the mum had died.
Found her grave in a cemetery.

But he didn't know
where the girl was now.

My dad, he wanted to help
his daughter.

My brother said, if I find her�

there could be some
money in it for her.

What, you gonna buy her off?

My brother was thinking�
25 grand.

Don't you wanna know her,
find out what her life's been like?

- What if she's a nightmare?
- What if she's not?

- That's pretty cold, mate.
- It's realistic.

Is it? Yeah, it'd be easier
if she was the same as you.

White? Well-off? A traveller?

Just so you know, it'd take more than
25 grand to buy me off.

Oh, and by the way�

your dad left me his watch.

I thought you might want it back.
It's a fake.

- Worth 20 bucks.
- Yeah, I know.

Dad was always losing his watches.

Had a draw full of cheap ones.

Excuse me.

- Dad: You right?!
- Yep, just wait!

To my Secret Daughter, thanks for
being kind to a sorry old bloke. Jack.

You don't have to lie.

- What about?
- I know who you are.

My dad gave you this, didn't he?

He came out here looking for
his daughter�

- Jamie, he was just�
- �and he found you.

He spent his last night talking
to you, telling you stuff about us.

You're my sister, aren't you?

- Dad: Bruno's here! HELP!
- Why didn't you tell me?

A minute ago, you were ready to
leave without telling me and now�

A minute ago,
I thought I had more time.

OK? Yes, I'm your sister.

And I have to get out
of Walperinga right now.

- OK.
- Is that your car?

- Uh, yeah.
- Well, let's go.

- To Sydney?
- I'll explain later.

- We have to go.
- OK. Just, uh�

- Just let me get my bag.
- No worries. I'll meet you at the car.

Rachel, you stay here.

Lloyd!

Oi, come here.

Come on. Hurry up.

Here. Give me that.

- Get in the boot. We're leaving town.
- In the boot?

Dad, it'll be hard to explain
sitting next to me.

- I'm not getting in the boot.
- Just until we get out Walperinga.

- Then I'll think of something.
- No, Billie, I'm not getting in�

Dad, don't start with me!

OK. Let Bruno flog you, then.

Give us me thong.

- Hey, mate. How'd you go?
- I found her, Chris. It all fits.

She's the right age
and Dad told her all about us.

- What are you gonna do?
- I'm bringing her back�

- �directly.
- Wait, wait, wait. What does that mean?

- Gotta go.
- Jamie�

- You ready?
- Yep. Let's do it.

Oh, no

See you walking round
like it's a funeral

But you're moving so carefully
Let's start living dangerously

Talk to me, baby
I'm going blind from this�

Time's up, Gus.

Let's lose our minds
and go crazy, baby�

Gus! I know you're in there.

Billie: Don't freak out!
You'll get your $$$

I keep on hoping
we'll eat cake by the ocean, uh!

- Good afternoon.
- Hello.

Billie. When can I get out?

- Is it all clear?
- Dad, not yet.

They're still outside.

Breathe.

Jamie, you're back.

I'm sorry, Susan.

I thought you'd want this.

One more thing.

This is Billie.

Billie who?

Dad's daughter.

G'day.

The revelation that's turning this
rich family's world upside-down.

She's lying,
she can't be Jack's daughter

If only it were true.

I'm not your sister.
I just had to get out of Wooperinga.

Who of us hasn't told a little
white lie for their family?

Gotta get me and dad outta here.

But this one could blow up
right in her face.

We know a doctor who
can organise a DNA test.

Wake me up when it's all over.

The ground-breaking,
new Australian Drama.

In the morning,
they'll all know the truth.

DNA results are back.

Well, I think the results
speak for themselves.

What does it say?
