The bones were old.
The grave's not.

Why would you move a body to
somewhere as risky as a dope plot?

A girl between 7 and 9 years old.

Jan '81, she arrives,
and her name is Dawn,

but then from September '81,
she just... disappears.

No one we know would have
anything to do with that.

♪ Between you and me
is a body of water.

Ah.

Is it true they found another body?

Hmm.

I just wanted to see
if this photograph...

brought back any memories.

Oh, oh, Papa.

Come on, come on.

He's not well.

Oh, it's Dawn.

Do you remember her?

Well, yeah, yes, she
was like my little shadow.

She followed me around everywhere.

Do you remember when
she was at the commune?

Early '80s.

I know she was there at
my 12th birthday party.

So that was... 1981, June.

And then...

Then... what?

We were told that she
went into state care.

Detective Savage to
base. Stand by to collect

remains. We're
landing in two minutes.

Copy that.

- Hey, Dolores.
- Hang on.

Petrie asked me to pick
up his internal mail for

him. There's something
really urgent in there.

Irregular.

Yeah, he's got a meeting
with the commissioner.

Already gone. Tell him
it'll be in his office by 11.

OK, thanks.

Anthony. How's it going, Jess?

OK.

I need another weapon issued.

Sure. How much paperwork
do you want?

What are my options?

Well, Bushmaster M4, you get a novel,
but the glock I can do for a signature.

Glock it is.

All right, you sign this,

and I get the goods.

Got you a G4. Short frame trigger -
for the little hands.

OK.

- Is this yours?
- Nope.

A boat like this was involved in
an incident at the fish factory.

Anyone use it yesterday?

I don't think so.

You sure?

Still wet under there.

You had a sister.

Died in 1981.

That's her over there.

Paitahi.

We were out by the pins.

She loved her fishing.
She was in the water, spearfishing.

She got a big kingie.

Wound the line around her arm
and... took off.

I don't know what you're looking for,
but if it involves that boat out there...

You can ask anyone.

I haven't been in a boat
since I was 10 years old.

I don't even take the fucking ferry.

We have to investigate these things.

Taiaroa.

Do you think I'd leave Paitahi
here in the ground, alone?

I'd give anything to have her bones,

put her with her tupuna,
where she belongs.

Yeah, hey.

No, he's here.
He's dropping off the mail now.

Graham, yeah.

No, I'll wait. It's all right.

- On the warpath?
- Yeah.

Good luck.

- Harding.
- Sir.

What do you two want?

We've had a breakthrough
in the case, sir.

We believe we found a burial site
in the old commune grounds.

OK, what do you need?

We need to dig up the
whole place - everything.

So we need warrants, you know,
extra manpower, gear - the lot.

Do you agree?

It's a significant breakthrough.

All right, I'll authorise
the budget with Specialist Search.

Good work, you two.
Thank you, sir.

That letter was from someone
who's blackmailing me...

for money, of course.

What could anyone possibly
want to blackmail you over?

Do you know who?

Just do what you need to do.

Look.

I think the right thing
to do would be to...

to find this scumbag with you
and sort them out.

We're partners, Jess.

We're meant to have each other's backs.

This is the old ablutions block. They
probably just dug it up for compost.

Sorry, do you mind just taking
a step back from the tape?

Like, a proper step back.

Thank you.

Wait, wait.

This is fresh soil.

Looks like there could've
been a body underneath.

We're gonna need to take
soil samples from that hole,

send them to the lab, compare them
with the residue on our skeletons. Sure.

You were right.
Do a full site search.

Dig up anything where you think
there's been recent activity.

- Not our trees.
- Including your trees.

Look, Rosie, you're going to have
to vacate and clear the premises.

We need to do a full site
examination. Look, we will cooperate,

but we can't just leave.
We need to know what else is here.

You got a private place we can talk?

It's the old meeting room.

- You knew Dawn.
- Mm, mm.

We believe that it's
Dawn's remains that we found.

What do you remember
about her - anything?

Did she have any favourite
objects or toys or...?

Yeah, she had a doll.

She used to carry that round.

I need your help, Rosie.

He couldn't have.
He just couldn't have.

- Joseph?
- None of them.

They loved those children.

Heya.

It's an adult male, 20s.

And the time period matches that of the
child's skeleton - about 40 years ago.

- Cause of death?
- Unknown at this stage.

The remains are far more
deteriorated than the child,

probably due to the bones having
been through a fish grinder.

His name is Matt Robins, Australian

Went missing around 1981.

Last anyone knew, he went AWOL to
a commune somewhere in New Zealand.

It's all in there.

You think you could be our skeleton?

Yeah, hard to tell.

Mm. Or that one.

I mean, it could be any one of them,
really, couldn't it?

- Dental records?
- Yeah, but...

- You don't have a skull.
- Yeah, correct.

Harding, take a look.

Dig it up.

Ops 6 here.
We've identified another site.

We need a digger. Over.

- Yeah?
- Hey.

They found another grave.

- Is it empty?
- Yeah.

But it's smaller,
looks like the child's grave.

They're sending the soil samples
back to the lab with the others.

OK. Check your email.

We think we've ID'd the adult body.

All right, will do.

Hey, um, about that
thing on the ferry,

just let me know when you wanna
make a plan, all right?

You're welcome!

Oh!

No, Miss Savage.

My baby's gonna be dead; it's so
cold. Can you turn the light on?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Don't use all the hot water.
- OK. - Don't use all the hot water!

- Hey.
- Hey.

You all right?

I think I freaked your mum out.
Why?

Hey, Mum. Hey.

- What's all this?
- Oh, I saw them in your room,

cos AJ wanted to see what
I looked like as a baby.

- Oh, right.
- Oh, look, look.

I found, oh, this one of you.

What a chunker.

- This is your mum, right?
- Yeah, Crazy Bobby.

She wasn't crazy.

Oh, yeah, she doesn't look
all that crazy here. Mm-mm.

A look?

- Oh, far out.
- Yeah.

Oh, was... Was she pregnant
with you there?

- Yeah.
- Oh.

Grandma was cool. Yeah, and hot.

No, she can't be cool and hot.

She can.

- It looks like you, babe. - Mm.
- Mm.

These yours?

Yeah, thanks.

Stamps, pretty old-school.

Yeah, job applications.

Boomers like hard copies.

- Goodnight.
- Night.

- Morning.
- Morning.

You want some?

- Is this for me?
- Mm.

- What do you want?
- What?

Well, AJ and I have been talking.

He's been looking for flats for us,
but they're really expensive,

and I think we should stay put
and save that money for the baby.

- What about that place in Auckland?
- Just missed out.

Yeah, OK, sure.

You're OK with it?

- OK with what?
- AJ moving in.

- None of your words said that.
- No, but...

Cos he practically lives here, and that
way we can all be together with the baby.

- Ooooh.
- Mum.

You said you'd support me.

OK.

- Yeah, if that's what you want.
- Really? - Really.

Really really?

Really really. Just don't
give me a chance to back out.

- OK.
- Ooh!

The lab has come back to us
with the soil comparisons.

The sample that they took from
behind the ablutions block

is a match to our adult skeleton.

There was high levels of
faecal matter in both.

And the child's skeleton is a match to
the small grave above the commune.

Harding, do you want to fill us in
on Matt Robins, please?

Yeah. The family
have come back and

positively ID'd this man
here as Matt Robins,

the Australian who
went missing in 1981.

It could be wishful thinking, but the first
lab results on the skeleton do support it.

They also found a nick
out of his T5 vertebra.

- So a bullet?
- Potentially, yeah.

So, we know that both the bodies
are connected to the commune.

We know that Matt and Dawn
were both residents there,

and they went missing in August
1981, or around there, yeah?

Uh-huh.

What we need to find out is what
happened and who is responsible.

Yeah, and why they were moved recently.

Yeah, ideas?

Well, Matt Robins was
new to the commune, right?

Mm-hm.

He found out Dawn was
being abused. They were

covering it up, and he
threatened to expose them.

So they killed him?

Yeah.

I dunno. Maybe...

Maybe they're both
tied together - an

accident that was covered
up by the community.

A bullet through the heart -
that's not an accident.

OK, so, what we do know is that Matt
left the army to join a commune,

which... That was quite a lifestyle change.
I dunno. Maybe he was after the dope.

I'll put money on it -
that girl was being abused.

Well, why don't you present
some evidence, then?

- Excuse me?
- Look.

All those kids that went
through the community, OK,

they're all grown up now,
and I've been speaking to them.

Not a single one of them mentioned
sexual abuse, not even in the slightest.

Well, maybe you're asking
the wrong questions.

Let's have a look at the evidence
that we do have. We...

We have a child's body that is buried with
toys, with a doll, with a favourite book,

in a beautiful spot
overlooking the commune.

I mean, that is a child that
is buried with love. Yeah?

And we have an adult's
body that's the opposite

nothing, buried
behind the toilet block.

So even when they were moved,
they... took her belongings with her.

They didn't need to do that. No.

The adult skeleton was
chucked in a fish grinder.

Which would suggest that
the people who moved the bodies

were the ones that buried them
in the first place.

Mm.

We need to put some heat
on the old commune members.

They're closing ranks.
We need one of them to crack.

We visit each of them again,
we up the ante,

and then we watch and see what happens.

Joseph.

Detective Savage. Oh.

- Remember me?
- Um...

I need to talk to you about
Te Ao Uenuku, about the little girl.

That one.

- No, I don't know.
- No, you want to take another look?

Her name was Dawn. I don't know.

- What about him? - Huh?
- Do you remember him?

A doctor running a commune
when two people die,

and yet you don't know
anything about it.

I didn't run the commune.
It was a collective.

A collective. Right.

Guess that way, you don't have
to take any responsibility.

You're not married, are you?

Beg your pardon?

Rights and responsibilities can
be shared, Detective Harding.

Might be a foreign concept to you.
Hmm.

You know everything that goes on
in this land, Koro - everything.

But to have a body
buried on our land...

that's some heavy tapu right there.

Are you gonna lecture me about tapu,

about tikanga?

You?

Standing here on... my whare...

like you're on the paepae,

and I'm just a small kid at the back.

Mahara ki hea koe.

Denise is tracing
their calls, so let's just

stay out of sight and
watch for movements.

If they don't call each other, they'll
definitely visit each other, OK?

Roger that.

This? Are you serious?

OK, Joseph has exited the property,
and he's heading towards... Ridge Rd.

He's pushing a wheelbarrow.

Taiaroa, he's heading your way.

Copy that.

Apart from a walk to the beach, Koro
hasn't talked to or visited anyone.

- The beach by the medical centre?
- Correct.

But he didn't visit Benny and Celia's.

Harding, can you confirm that?

Yeah, affirmative.
He didn't even look in.

Denise, has anyone used their phones?

Negative.

OK, I can see him.

He's heading this way.

Anything?

He just walked past.

Ah.

- What? Ah, what?
- He's getting woodchips.

There's some council ones
out there on the berm.

I can't believe they're
not contacting each other.

- What exactly are you looking for?
- Code.

Code?

They're not just walking
past each other's houses.

They're checking for a signal.

Taiaroa, can you go check Koro's yard?

Is there anything on
the washing line there?

There's some rainbow socks on the line.

Koro.

- Kia or a. - Hi.
- Hello, Joe.

Hi, hi, hi.

I'll go and sit here.

Oh, you're not sitting down there.

Right.

- Thank you.
- Oh, great.

Ta.

- Oh!
- Yeah.

- Are they Black Doris?
- Yeah, from our tree.

- Ooh!
- It was a really good crop this year.

- Good plums.
- Yeah.

How are you doing, Joe?

She... She came to see me today.

And?

She had both their pictures.

We should never have dug them up.

Hey, we all agreed that
whoever's blackmailing

Joe might have
known where they were.

For goodness sake.

All these years,
no one's known a thing.

Then all of a sudden,
someone's blackmailing us.

Who is it?

If we knew that, we
wouldn't be here, Celia.

Mm.

- What's that?
- What?

- Under the table?
- Where?

OK. Let's go. Go, go, go, go.

He raped that little girl.

And he strangled her.

Who could do such a thing?

She was a child...

a beautiful, free spirit.

You know me.

You know my history.

It's always been about the kids,
about the mokos.

The kaupapa was all
about the children...

to give them a home
where they could feel safe.

Then why didn't you hand him in?

Do you have any idea what this
country was like back in 1981?

All the public would have
heard was the police found

a druggie Maori commune
harbouring sexual predators.

Te Ao Uenuku would have been over.
The land would've been taken.

And Matt Robins,

he wouldn't have just killed one child.

He would have destroyed
the lives of dozens more.

Did you kill him?

We all did it.

Who pulled the trigger?

We all pulled the trigger.

You're kidding.

Yeah, well,

we believed in
collective responsibility.

These weren't empty words, Jess.

We lived that mantra
for almost 40 years.

And we're still living it.

It was murder.

Yes, it was murder.

What we did was repugnant.

But I don't believe it was wrong.

Can you tell me about Maurice?

He was one of us.

Then why did he commit suicide?

He couldn't live with it.

He couldn't live with what?

He was one of the group
that killed Matt.

You'll go to jail.

You'll go to jail.

Then I will go to jail

with my dearest living friends.

We're gonna have to charge them all.

Four good people.

We're not lawmakers.

We're certainly not priests.

We just do our job.

You did a good job, both of you.

Did you talk to Joseph
about the blackmailer?

He used a prepaid phone to text.

He wrote notes on a blue felt-tip pen.

And his demands increased.

- Same as yours?
- Yeah.

What do they do in there?

I have no idea.

Sex?

I don't think so.

But they keep Nia entertained, and for
that, I am happy to ask no questions.
