Original subtitles

She's headed to the Boys Avenue exit at station.

Move!

Suspect, platform 3.

The next train does not stop at this platform.

Move! Police!

-Fuck!

Civilian down. Hit by a train, Blacktown Station.

Medical needed now.

Hall, tourniquet now. Give it to me. Give it to me!

Starting compressions.

-Priority. -One, two, three.

Paramedics on site, over.

Copy. Repeat, platform 3.

Yeah, platform 3.

Medical less than a minute out.

-It was fucking there. -OK.

It's safe. Leave.

Phil, bring that.

Pulse weak, pupils responsive.

Got him back, but we need to move him.

Right, Ford. I'm done. Haul him on three, OK?

So, uh...

It was good work, finding this.

Uh, it wasn't hard.

Yeah, it wasn't logged properly,

but I just went back through the files.

Take the win, Che.

Thanks.

So there is a... There's an hour left.

Want to take a break?

Coffee?

Better still, get me a coffee?

Let's do this.

No knife located. Hall, check with Ahmed.

Zil, did you see her chuck the knife?

Uh, no, no, no, no.

It was in her hand. Right, right hand.

-Yep? -Yep.

Ahmed saw the knife. Must still be on her.

-Yeah. Have you got her? -Got her.

She's upstairs. Bryce and Song got her.

Fuck!

Oh, God. What the hell have I done?

None of that shit.

Look at me. This is important.

You called out 'police'. You instructed her to stop.

-Yeah, yeah, I think so. -Yeah?

'Cause this is important.

Yeah.

You called out 'police'.

You instructed her to stop.

Repeat after me. "I saw the weapon.

"I called out loud and clear, 'Police. Stop.'"

Yeah, I saw the weapon.

Shit.

I called, "Police. Stop."

He was coached.

I might go get a fresh shave.

- Cool. - Yeah?

- Oh! - Come on, man!

- Oh! - Really?

- Slipped out. - Butter-fingers.

Alright, thank you. We're good.

Hi.

Hey, Yvonne.

- Dalia, uh... - Are you following me?

No, I'm not. Um...

I was here, uh, with my brother.

We were shopping.

He's a social worker, actually,

at United Humanity.

Uh, bro, what's going on?

Maybe he can help you with, um...

What?

Is... is he the cop that chased you?

Yeah.

Zil, no, let's go.

- Leave me alone. -Look, I was just trying...

Hey. Uh, we're leaving. We're leaving, OK?

But if someone is hurting you, tell an adult.

That was stupid.

I know.

- What the hell was that? - What was I supposed to do?

Is that why you brought me here?

- You are unbelievable.

No, I didn't know she'd be here.

But you can tell she needs help,

and that's what you're about, right?

That is not how this works.

Yeah, this is how this works.

That cop is the cop I was telling you about.

He saved me, at Brad's.

I'm glad he saved you.

I have an idea.

We'll get them back for ruining our day.

Shouldn't we pull him from shift?

We don't have that power.

We've got to get the SCII to sign off on our next move.

Which is?

Well, first...

...I put it in to Professional Standards.

Yes, I understand, ma'am,

but there really isn't anything we can do

about someone removing bottles from your recycling bin.

You'll need to take it up with the council.

Luka's father is here with his daughter.

Alright.

He wants to see the footage.

I'm sorry, but he insisted.

Yeah, no. Of course.

Why don't you disappear for an hour, mate?

You don't need to be here.

Yeah, it's a good idea.

Come back after lunch.

Mr Horvat.

You're the man in charge?

Why wasn't I told that an officer pushed my son?

We're... we're in the midst

of an active critical incident investigation.

Information must be tightly controlled.

I had to get authorisation for this.

It feels like the wool has been pulled over my eyes.

Not at all.

Look, I understand how it must feel like that,

but perhaps it was decided

that the details weren't necessarily helpful.

That is for me to decide.

I want the truth!

I want to see it.

Mr Horvat,

viewing the footage of Luka's fall won't bring you peace.

But that's just it. He didn't fall.

This is not about peace.

This is about being able to look my son in the eye

when he asks me what was done to him.

I want to see it.

We don't have to stay.

Yes, we do. This is gonna be awesome.

I am that good.

Oh, here comes his brother.

Come, come, come, come, come. Come.

Where's he?

- Fuck, it's his brother's car.

Oh, my God. Oh, my God!

-You fuckin' idiot! -It's not me!

Rewired the brake to the horn.

Never doubt the master!

-Get off the road, mate!

- It's not me, it's not me!

What the fuck is going on?!

Oh! Jeez!

Though we did miss the target, I guess.

-Moron, you are, mate. - It's OK. Look at him.

I'm not here to give you excuses.

We all have to live with what I did, but, um...

...but most of all, you.

Nothing I do or say will change your situation,

but I wanted to let you know that I care.

Deeply.

Do the police know you're here?

It took guts to come see us.

I give you that.

I wanted...

It's all I can do.

It's a beautiful apology.

But, Zil, I am sorry,

it's never gonna happen like that.

Two words -

realistic expectations.

There's no way you can interact with the family.

So, what, I've got to sit on my hands and never talk to them?

My job is to try and get you out of this mess.

It shouldn't be taking this long.

It's a really unnecessary strain on you.

Let's see if I can get a sit-down with this investigator,

wrap this up.

Look, I just want to get back to good policing.

It's all I know how to do. I'm just, um...

...struggling.

Are you seeing someone that can help you?

Yeah.

Under control.

-Tsuma.

Make it quick. I've got a date with 'Love Island'.

Uh, so, the Horvat girl, we found out who broke her nose,

and it's Dalia Tun.

All over socials.

Do you want me to write it off, or...?

Are you asking me whether

you should not arrest a girl

who broke a teenager's nose

for, what, political reasons?

Fuck.

Whew, oof!

Another day, another complaint.

Um-ah, Gregory.

Where's Ahmed?

Look at the roster. You've got eyes.

He's taking it personal.

You tell poster boy to call me.

So, Zil...

In your initial statement...

Yeah, it is Officer Ahmed's desire

to have this investigation wrapped up ASAP.

Any further recollections come to mind?

Like what?

Well, it's just protocol to present the opportunity

to add to the investigation's understanding of events.

Look, I was...

I am by the book.

Like I said, I believed the danger the suspect presented

outweighed the danger of the pursuit itself.

My intel was she was armed.

She was erratic.

I identified myself as police.

I instructed her to stop. She didn't.

I followed procedure. Is someone saying otherwise?

So, every police taser has a camera in it

that automatically records once its armed.

I know, but I didn't have a taser. I was plain-clothes.

And usually the recording stops once it's disarmed.

But sometimes in the... the heat of the moment,

the user forgets to disarm it.

What are you getting at, Detective?

Senior Constable Hall.

You know him?

He drew his taser...

...as he entered the train station.

And then he re-holstered it

just before Luka Horvat fell on the tracks.

I'm going to play a segment

from Senior Constable Hall's taser audio

just after it was re-holstered.

-Hey! Hey. - What the hell have I done?

None of that. None of that. Look at me. Look at me.

That is Senior Constable Hall speaking with you.

You called out 'police'. You instructed her to stop.

Yeah, yeah, I think so, yeah.

This is important.

You called out 'police'. You instructed her to stop.

Repeat after me. "I saw the weapon.

"I called out loud and clear, 'Police. Stop.'"

I saw the weapon.

I called, "Police. Stop."

- Yeah, right. - Yeah, man.

You're sweet. You're good.

You got this. You got it. I got you. Alright?

Zil, you never told me about that conversation.

At best it's a lie by admission.

No.

No, no, I don't, I don't...

I don't remember that conversation.

Stop talking. We're done.

We're going to see the superintendent now.

You know what, even if that's true,

how am I supposed to believe anything you've said?

Because I followed procedure.

There was no need for me to lie.

Dalia, the girl,

surely she told you I called 'police'.

I said it. I know.

I know I said it.

I have no evidence to support that claim.

And, Zil, we have given you ample opportunity

to speak honestly.

Recently, our lives were turned upside down

when my son, Luka,

he was knocked into the path of an oncoming train

at Blacktown Station.

My family's utterly devastated

by what's happened to Luka.

And it happened because...

...this officer, he knocked my son onto the tracks.

He is the reason

that Luka has lost his legs!

It was Senior Constable Zilficar Ahmed

from Blacktown District Police's Proactive Crime Team.

I want accountability from Sydney Metropolitan Police.

We deserve that.

- They are meant to serve... - Let's go.

...and protect us.

We'll continue to bring you updates...

They're coming for my badge.

Alright, Probie, turn it off.

Everyone back to work.

Turning now to the ongoing...

You need to join the union, get proper protection.

That lawyer is no good, Zil.

He's not the problem.

OK, but your name's public. It changes things.

Yes, I know.

Fucking Hall!

- Why did he open his mouth? - Or pull his frickin' taser.

Hey, the super's still in your corner.

I think it's out of his hands.

Hey, I just think you're in a really hectic place right now,

so maybe we should wait.

Wait?

Yeah, just...

Just while things get straight.

And if it doesn't?

Well, I just... I just need...

I don't want to...

I don't want our start to be, you know,

a comfort from your problems.

It's not, it's not. You're not, alright, a distraction...

But this shit's all, like, you and me,

relationships, it's...

Fuck, I just...

Relationships are hard for me, OK?

Harder than I thought,

with my family shit, you know?

Mm, I know.

I get it.

It's just... Hey.

Let's just take it slow, that's all.

Course.

I've just been notified that you've put in

for the crime manager gig here at my shop.

Of course I did. Crime manager position?

Doesn't come up often.

I want it.

Like you, I have ambition.

Can you work under me?

I've done it before.

Hm.

I was hoping it would be a partnership.

You know, well, if I got the job.

Come on, Eddie, you're more arrogant than I remember

if you think this is gonna work.

I mean, you've just taken a dump across the entire station.

So, well, maybe I can help raise the standard.

They're never gonna accept you.

I mean, it was a fucking low blow

lodging things with Professional Standards.

I mean, what did the kid do to you?

He lied.

He lied to a senior officer under caution.

Of course you would read it that way.

OK, maybe...

...his mistake doesn't mean that you were wrong about him.

Maybe he's just not as good as you thought he was.

Maybe you can't pick 'em like you used to

now you're middle-aged.

Yeah, well, I picked some shockers when I was younger.

Don't lose your humour, Trevor.

It's one of my favourite things about you.

Are the cuffs really necessary?

Look, we've placed her under arrest for assault

causing actual bodily harm.

Wait, wait.

Please let her wear it. Holding cells are freezing.

What station?

Blacktown District.

Dalia...

I know a lawyer.

Don't say anything until she gets there, OK?

What, man?

I've got my job, you got yours.

- Dalia. Dalia? Listen.

Stay calm.

Don't say anything until she gets there, please, OK?

Work out somewhere else.

Why?

We can't talk, right? Professional Standards is on it.

Yeah, I know. That's what I want to talk about.

We need to get on the same footing.

I reckon we emphasise the shock you were in.

I don't remember talking to you.

Perfect.

You were all over the shop.

Do you get what you've done?

You've dropped me in it. You've handed them a noose.

Zil, I've always had your back.

You need to have mine.

I followed procedure.

You've made me look dodgy.

Hey. Hey!

We can both walk away from this if we stick together.

-This is not that hard. -I know.

Just call and say that I'll call you back. I will.

Hey. Hey, man.

You alright?

I mean, with the whole... I just...

I didn't think that they were allowed to name you like that.

We called you to check in and we wanted to come around.

Yeah.

Sorry, I just needed... some space.

We're here for you, always, OK? You shouldn't be alone.

He wasn't alone.

Call Mum and Dad, yeah?

Word got back to them.

Yeah, I will.

Should probably get to it, yeah?

Yeah.

'Bye.

See ya.

Oi.

Not your case. Stay away.

She's the one who ran.

Wouldn't hurt to find out what she's in for.

Dalia, we want to understand

why you attacked Sabine Horvat.

- Explain it for us. - Oh, no, Constable!

You arrested her before you heard her side of the events.

You clearly have some story made up in your mind.

We're not saying a thing.

However, if you'd like to put something,

say, evidence before us, that'd be great.

We might comment on that.

I was hoping to get Dalia's take on things

because Ms Horvat's got a broken nose.

There are social media posts

showing Dalia elbowing Sabine in the face.

That's it? No comment.

Now, let's organise her bail.

You are to remain inside 128 Pander Avenue

between 8pm to 8am.

You are to report to Blacktown District Police Station

Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays

until your court date.

And you are to be of good behaviour.

That means no drinking alcohol.

Do you understand these conditions?

I need a verbal response.

Yes, I understand.

OK, good. Sign here.

You'll receive a court appearance notice soon.

Assault?

Leave me alone.

If you hadn't run,

none of this would have happened.

She attacked me because she thought

I pushed her brother onto the tracks.

You need to tell the investigator

you heard me call 'police'.

I didn't hear you do that.

You did.

That's when you ran.

You never said it.

I know you heard me.

I'm pretty sure you shouldn't be speaking to me,

telling me what to say.

Stay away from me, Officer Ahmed.

Hustle with me. I'm late for the regional catch-up.

What kind of no-life, cat-owning,

microwave-dinner-eating fool schedules a meeting this late?

- Uh, the sadistic kind. - Yeah.

Here's a perfectly bound copy

of the station's six-week compass report.

Even put in a graph measuring our stats against the KPIs

and added an insights summary

to make you look good in front of the super.

- What's the top line? - Arrests for possession are up.

Arrests for supply are down.

The differential will get flagged.

Yeah, upstairs will not be happy.

Tell GDs and the drug desk

to get some supply charges on the table.

Known drug offenders, possession cases.

See if any of them are carrying extra weight?

You know which rocks to look under.

I can loop in the dog squad. Aguilar would be happy to help.

Mm.

I tell Dad he has to take the dealership 100% electric

if he ever wants me to have kids.

- You want kids? - Yeah, of course. Do you?

- No way! - Guys.

- Why not? - Guys!

Stop.

You, bag on the ground.

Kilo, find. Find, Kilo.

He's gonna go round you. Come on, Kilo.

The dog has indicated that there's something on you.

There... there isn't.

Follow me.

Officer Turner!

Guys, just go.

Good boy. Come on. Here.

- Angela! - But she said.

- Is that your seventh coffee?

Yeah, so?

Aguilar?

Got your runner.

What did you find?

No joy.

OK. Maybe tomorrow?

Yeah, she'll slip.

Thanks.

-What was that?

He had some info on a small-time dealer, that's all.

-Oh, yeah? - Yeah.

It's good to know we're all on the same page.

- Thanks for your time. - Yes, sir.

Uh, boss...

...a word?

Sure.

I put in for the CM position this morning.

I expected that.

I heard Barcelos is also in the pool.

You two were stationed in Bathurst together, right?

- You know each other. - Don't read into it.

All I want is the chance to act in the role.

We'll let the process run its course with HR.

They need to balance the needs of the broader region.

Thank you, sir.

I'll beat you this time.

One, two, three, four, I declare a thumb war.

Five, six, seven, eight, I cheat. You suck.

- I win again.

Staying for dinner, Hayden?

We should get to know one another.

I'd love that.

Great!

We haven't met a man in Dalia's life before.

Come and set the table?

So, what do you do for work?

I, uh...

I work in sales. I'm a sales manager.

I work small pharma.

Most of my clients are in Western Sydney,

but I'm just trying to climb the ladder, you know?

I do.

I got a promotion a month or so ago.

-Mm. - Mm, yeah.

I was made supervisor of this place.

Wow!

I mean, you seem kinda young for that.

Mm, older than you, I reckon.

Not by much.

I'm 21.

Well, you're closer to my age than Dalia's.

She's such a creep.

Dalia Tun to present, thanks. It's a bail check.

Dalia!

Bail check!

That's it. Thanks.

You OK?

Dalia? Dalia.

You need to get up.

Get away!

- What are you doing in here? - Stay calm.

It's OK. It's just another bail check.

What?

Again?

Dalia Tun, I need to see you. Now.

Come on.

Before they wake the whole house.

- Oh, for fuck's sake.

I need to see her.

She's to present now or it's a breach of bail.

She's here. She's coming.

Tonya. Tonya.

Go back to bed.

Slow breaths on me, Dalia.

She presents or it's a breach.

- Now! -She's coming!

Don't listen to that. It's OK.

Stay with me. Slow breaths.

Hayden.

Take me to Ty.

Are you sure?

That's how the dogs operate.

They pick away at you like a scab.

Bloody relentless.

Yeah.

They're playing you,

trying to break your spirit.

Hayden says really good things about you.

Thought you might have some...

...strategies.

You're a foster kid, yeah?

Yeah, I did that too.

For a bit.

You did?

You really want my opinion?

This is your brain.

This bit is the prefrontal cortex.

Deals with shit like language and fine motor skills.

This bit is the amygdala.

It's what drives us.

It's buried all the way towards the back of your brain,

carries the primal shit.

It's the alarm system of our bodies.

Controls our flight or fight reactions.

- Clean it up. -Sorry.

I'm sorry.

These reactions, Dalia,

it's what all our society is about.

Here.

See?

Dull, monotonous lives

designed to keep you in your primal brain.

So people are trapped in that system,

working like dogs to pay off small boxes to sleep in.

Buy whatever society tells you to.

They're blind.

Controlled.

So how do you break free from that?

Well, first you gotta be conscious of it.

And then you gotta be exceptional.

Use your mind to defy the system.

Exceptional people operate with an utter disregard

for how the system says things have to be done.

Are you up for it?

Attagirl.

This is good, right?

Yeah. It's getting a lot of... interest.

Yeah.

Sharing is caring.

- Respect boundaries.

Working hard, I see.

Staying informed about the community.

You can see this is a story

which lots of people are sharing.

It's about the girl Zil chased.

Explains that she's been arrested

for causing actual bodily harm.

- For God's sake, Zahra. - They're the facts.

Facts that bear no relevance to each other,

but when you put them together,

they present a bullshit narrative to the public.

It's defending Zil, especially after being named.

That's what we should be doing.

It's placing blame on a kid.

He's been under a lot of pressure.

Maybe everyone could cut him some slack.

Zil causes a lot of his own problems.

You mean a lot to him.

You think you could be a bit more compassionate?

That kind of support isn't what he needs right now, Zahra.

He's a cop.

That comes with duties and expectations.

- I know. I work here too. - Cool.

Then how about you act like it?

Can you believe her?

She asked about Luka's body on the tracks.

How much blood there was.

I see.

Yeah, that's not cool.

It's like she gets off hearing about my trauma or something.

She also asked about...

What?

Stuff that happened.

When I lived with my mum.

I don't want to get her in trouble.

I feel kind of... gross,

like, even...

...unsafe around her.

I'll call it in.

Tell your boss I feel unsafe?

Leave it with me, OK?

Sorry, Da.

Where'd you go last night?

Out.

Want to eat before your shift?

No, I'm not hungry.

OK.

What's up?

What are you doing with Dalia Tun, Zil?

Trying to find a story to help you sleep better at night?

'Cause you were meant to put it in the rear-view.

I didn't know she was gonna get arrested.

Well, I'm embarrassed,

because people think that you chased her for me.

People? People think?

- It's not right. - Yes, it kind of is.

Of course I chased her because of you.

- You told me to. - No. Don't be stupid.

I sat beside you at the hospital.

You said, "Go back to work

"and catch the little shit who hurt me."

You said that.

That is not what I fucking meant,

and... and you know that.

You would have done the same thing, you know?

You say that I put you on a pedestal,

but you put yourself right up there.

You know, I would have stopped.

I would have stopped the chase when I got to the station.

It was too crowded, too many unknowns.

It was fucking dumb and dangerous.

You saying I made the wrong call?

Yeah.

You did.

And Luka's on your conscience, he's not on mine.

Fuckin' hell.

You're gonna let one decision screw everything up?

Good one, yeah, blow it all up, Sandra. Why the fuck not?

Oh, come on!

Zil.

I can't help you anymore.

I never needed your help.

Well, what did you need?

Nothing from you.

- Nice. - Hmm.

Feel that?

You're stunning.

Stop.

You just want to get in my pants.

We're more than that, yeah?

We're forever, babe.

Yeah, I like the sound of that.

Hey, I've got something.

A gift. From Ty.

I mean, he gave me a good discount on this.

I've been worried about you.

That makes two of us.

I know what it's like, not meeting people's expectations.

Yeah?

It's isolating when...

...when you realise those you trust and love

no longer see the world as you do.

Hey.

Zahra!

Oh, get off!

Hey.

Stand there. Answer any questions when asked.

Get off!

Are you on something?

-Ali. -What?

I need a female for a search.

Corner box.

A thankyou would be nice.

OK, someone else is gonna have to take it.

-Hey! Hey!

Back up. Stop.

Get off!

Get off!
