00:00These were taken at 2.38am, the night before Senior Constable McGrath's body was found
00:12at the dam nearby.
00:13If I were to show up at your house, what would I find?
00:16Guess you'll never know without a warrant.
00:18That's a good point.
00:19I, um, kept some stuff.
00:20What stuff?
00:21Like the club's badge.
00:22Get rid of it.
00:23What are you doing here?
00:24I need you to look after this.
00:25Hey, no, I'm not keeping this here.
00:26We turned up for you when you needed us.
00:28You owe us.
00:30This makes me out to be an absolute monster.
00:36I feel like a real drink.
00:37Look, I think we should call Leah.
00:39You're right.
00:40She'll be across all this and she'll want to help.
00:41John, John, the drinking was a one-off, alright?
00:44I still think it's a good idea for you to go to an AA meeting.
00:47I could take you.
00:48I will go, but not a word to anyone.
00:51You know, we're officially experts at this sneaking around thing, because Leah had no
00:55idea earlier.
00:56Bree, you may as well come out now.
00:58Why are you keeping it a secret?
01:00We just don't want all the pressure and expectations that come with people knowing.
01:04So your mom's good?
01:06Yeah.
01:07Yeah, it was great catching up.
01:11Am I boring you?
01:12No, no, it's just...
01:13Oh, the session works better going, mate.
01:16Hey!
01:17Hey!
01:18How's the water?
01:19Perfect.
01:20Yeah?
01:21Yeah.
01:22Good surf?
01:23Yeah.
01:24Nice.
01:26Nice.
01:30Well, I should get going.
01:32Got some chord progressions to rehearse for tonight.
01:34Oh, since when do you do homework?
01:37The major seventh thing you were telling me about, right?
01:39Yeah, yeah, the band wants to go for a bit of a soul thing, so...
01:42Nice.
01:45Well, don't let us hold you up.
01:47Yeah.
01:49So, who's up for coffee?
01:51I can't, sorry, I'm meeting Cash.
01:53Oh, yep, and I've got a shift.
01:55Again?
01:56The hospital's really running you into the ground lately.
02:00Yep, and I'm already running late.
02:02See ya.
02:03Bye.
02:04They both seem super focused on work.
02:06Yeah, Remy's really dedicated.
02:08Oh, please, it's Laney he's dedicated to.
02:10Who?
02:11Laney, the backing singer he's been seeing for the last few weeks.
02:15How am I only hearing about this now?
02:18Oh.
02:20Breezy left her sunnies here.
02:22I'm gonna go catch up to her.
02:24Oh, she's rushing to get to work.
02:26Just send her a text.
02:28Anyway, I gotta go.
02:30Told Justin I'd give him a hand at the garage.
02:32See ya.
02:33Bye.
02:38It's worse than I thought.
02:40Erin was a victim.
02:42How could she put those things about her?
02:45Well, to be fair, she did give the woman plenty of inspiration in the interview.
02:50I never should have suggested we do the article.
02:53You were only trying to help.
02:55John, have you seen Irene?
02:57She's not answering any of my calls.
02:59Yeah, she's just feeling a little off colour.
03:01That's why she left work early?
03:03I just spoke to her.
03:04And she's just about to have a nap, so I wouldn't call her right now.
03:07Has she seen the paper?
03:09Unfortunately, yeah.
03:10She's not sick, is she?
03:12I mean, she doesn't want to come into work because she's worried about what people would think and who would blame her.
03:15No, she's fine.
03:16She's fine, really.
03:17She's just got a cold coming on.
03:22Come on, let's go!
03:23Push it!
03:24Faster!
03:25Faster, let's go!
03:27Come on!
03:28Come on!
03:30Well done.
03:31Smashed it.
03:32Alright, have a rest.
03:33Here's some water.
03:36You know, I've been thinking a lot about what's next for Peri.
03:39What do you think?
03:40Should I be talking to the local schools, see what they've got to offer?
03:43Depends.
03:44Does he want to study again?
03:46I'm not sure.
03:47We haven't asked him.
03:49Need to find the right time, you know.
03:54You alright?
03:55Yeah, maybe check in with Peri before you start talking to schools.
03:58Yeah, yeah, you're right.
04:00It's all so new.
04:02I just want to do what's best for him.
04:04He's lucky you have his back.
04:07He's got a meeting with his parole officer today.
04:09Hope it's going okay.
04:11At least he's not going back to his dad's place.
04:13It's clear on that.
04:14That's why I need to get this right.
04:17I have a responsibility to Peri.
04:20I don't want to let him down.
04:22Unlike his father.
04:24You're treating your own kid like that?
04:26Some people don't deserve to be parents.
04:29He obviously has issues.
04:30Yeah, well, I don't care.
04:32If you're lucky enough to be a parent, you owe it to your kid to give it your all.
04:40Hi.
04:42I remember you.
04:44Ah, just as well.
04:46It's good to be home. I missed you.
04:48Missed you.
04:49So, how was work?
04:51Are you going to do that annoying cop thing and say you can't tell me?
04:53No, no, I have had a bit of progress on the murder investigation.
04:57That's major.
04:58Yeah, yeah, it is. That's all I can say.
05:00I really want to hear about your trip. How's your mum?
05:02Yeah, she's really great. She's dying to meet you.
05:05Is that a fact?
05:06Yeah, yeah, she wouldn't shut up about it.
05:08See you, cab.
05:09See ya. Catch up with you later.
05:14Hey, you all right?
05:21Charlie?
05:23Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.
05:26I guess this means we're going to have to organise a meet and greet between you and Mum soon.
05:30Does that work?
05:31Yeah, I'm just waiting to hear back about something, but it's fine. All yours.
05:36Solving a murder takes up a fair bit of headspace.
05:39I get it. You're off the hook.
05:41I am going to order us some drinks.
05:47Hey, Cash.
05:48G'day.
05:49Just knocked off?
05:50Yeah.
05:51Good day? Bad day?
05:52Yeah, it was a fine day.
05:54Right. Just, I know that Mangrove River can be intense.
05:59Right. Right, listen, if you've got a problem with Rory...
06:02I didn't say that.
06:03...then I can help you.
06:05You've got to be straight with me.
06:09Marley.
06:11It's awkward. Seriously, I was just checking in.
06:17Is he all right?
06:19I don't know.
06:25Hungry?
06:27You bet.
06:29So that thing on the beach before. Got kind of awkward, right?
06:33Yeah, lucky Theo stepped in to help out.
06:35Yeah, because I feel hopeless at this.
06:38I would say you're very good at it. Eden really bought the story.
06:42For now, at least. I don't know, it just feels weird that we're involving other people.
06:47Maybe we need to rethink this. You know, the sneaking around part.
06:51No, I know what you mean. I just don't see the problem.
06:54Really?
06:55Theo handled it fine and Eden's happy. So can we stop talking about everybody else?
07:02Hi. I didn't think you'd be home. I just came to drop these off.
07:06Thank you. What happened to rehearsals?
07:09Oh, he dropped over a book that I asked for.
07:11Really? Oh, well, you have four books and they're all biographies of rock stars?
07:17Yeah, she wanted the Mick Jagger one.
07:19Huge fan.
07:20Right. Well, have fun reading. I've got to go.
07:26Thanks for my sunnies.
07:28See ya.
07:31That was Logan, wasn't it? He made a book, really. Do you not know him yet?
07:56Whoa, this is bad.
07:58Yeah.
07:59Here you go, boys.
08:02Maybe I should go and see Irene, make sure that she's OK.
08:05No, she just needs to rest.
08:07So you keep saying.
08:09Where are you going?
08:10To the diner.
08:12Well, I'll walk with you. See ya.
08:15Hey.
08:16Hey.
08:17Hey, where'd you come from?
08:18Bree's place. Remi was there.
08:21So? They're friends? Friends hang out?
08:24You know something.
08:25No, I don't.
08:26Yes, you do. I think you know what I know.
08:30What do you know?
08:31Theo, do we really have to do this? I mean, it's stupid that we both know and we're just expected to pretend like we don't.
08:37Exactly.
08:38What?
08:39Why is it such a big deal that Bree and Remi are back together?
08:41Yes, I knew it. How long?
08:43You said you knew.
08:44Well, I do now.
08:47Oh.
08:53This is wild. After all of the lectures that Remi gave us about trying to set them up, were they together when this was happening?
09:00I don't know.
09:01I'm going to find out.
09:02No, you are not.
09:03Why?
09:04Because as far as Remi and Bree are aware, I'm the only one that knows. And I told them I wouldn't say anything.
09:10Well, I don't understand. Why is it a problem? Why are they trying to keep it a secret?
09:15Because they don't want the pressure of everyone else knowing.
09:17Yeah, well that is crazy. Because we'd obviously be stoked for them.
09:21So that wasn't Laney on the back of his bike. It was Bree.
09:25So how is he getting away with this? Is he sneaking Bree into the house?
09:29Wait, does Eden know?
09:32I don't know how else I can put this. I'm the only one that knows.
09:35You can't tell a soul. It's not our business. You have to respect that.
09:40They're just, they're figuring things out. Can we let them do that at their own pace?
09:46Fine.
09:48Thank you.
09:50Maybe we'll get lucky and she won't figure it out.
09:53Were you not there? Kevin didn't buy that story for one second.
09:56We don't know that for sure.
10:00I think we need to call it. Get ahead of everyone figuring it out and just tell them.
10:05Do we have to? Right now?
10:07It's been fun. But the pressure of keeping us a secret, it's getting old.
10:12I thought you were enjoying it.
10:14No, I was. But would it be such a bad thing if people knew about us?
10:19I mean, then we could take you out, be proud of you, show you off a bit.
10:23Yeah, but the way it is now. No expectations, no one else's opinions. It's special.
10:33It still will be.
10:35But I just, I love having you all to myself. And we don't want to mess with that, right?
10:42No, you're right.
10:45So, stays with us?
10:53Hey, burger with the lot and extra chips.
10:56Wow, thank you. That's perfect.
10:58That meal is bigger than you.
11:00Yeah, I'm starving. Need an extra protein hit after training.
11:03Well, enjoy.
11:04John, don't you have something better to do than hang around here all day?
11:08Yes, like go to work.
11:10There's nothing wrong with me taking it easy.
11:12Were you feeling rough after sleeping on our couch last night?
11:15I feel fine, thank you very much. That's a big meal.
11:17Wait, you stayed the night at Irene's?
11:20Yeah, well, she's sick. I was worried about her.
11:22Hang on, I didn't know she was unwell.
11:24No, it was just a tummy bug. She didn't want to worry you.
11:27Alright, admit it. She's upset about the article, right?
11:34You going to take that chill?
11:35No, it's just work.
11:37You know what? I'm going to go around to her place. I'm going to find out for myself.
11:45Alright, she's not there. She's not sick.
11:48She's just a little stressed and she's gone to the other group.
11:51What for?
11:53Retail therapy.
11:54So, can we just give her a little bit of space, okay?
11:59So, hang on. I thought you were serious about leaving.
12:03She had her bags packed.
12:05If I have to keep him around to keep her near, then that's what I'm going to do.
12:08And how has that been, having him in the house in the middle of the investigation?
12:11The more progress I make on the case, the easier that gets.
12:14Do you have any proof that he has something to do with that cop's death?
12:19I know, I know you can't talk about it, but maybe you could consider breaking that rule and tell Flip?
12:25You could consider breaking that rule and tell Flip?
12:27There's no point. I've got nothing sold on Rory.
12:30And besides, anything bad I say is just going to push her away.
12:33Is it possible that you're wrong and that maybe he has nothing to do with it?
12:36Nah, not a chance. Three of the boys don't make a move without Rory knowing.
12:39Oh, I'm sorry. I should never have pushed her into dating you.
12:43Oh, look, I was encouraging her too. Now I've got to get her out of this mess.
12:47Hmm.
12:54Yo, how was your day?
12:57Better.
12:59Oh yeah? What's going on?
13:02Trust me, you don't want to get involved.
13:06Oh, nah, nah.
13:07Now I need to know. That's why I knew this much.
13:11Marlon.
13:14Maybe there's something wrong. Maybe help.
13:17Why didn't you just refuse to take it?
13:20You're saying that like I had a choice.
13:23These mates of Dean's showed up when I had that fight.
13:27Thing with Oluka?
13:30Mates.
13:31The river boys, right?
13:33Yeah. I thought we were sweet.
13:36And now they're acting like I still owe them, and then Dingo shows up,
13:40drops a bag at my feet, tells me to hide it, and then just walks off.
13:44Oh. So what's in it?
13:47That's the problem. I've no idea.
13:50And I don't know, is it something bad? Drugs? Guns?
13:54Alright, don't get ahead of yourself.
13:56Well, it can't be anything good.
13:58Then let's see what we're dealing with.
14:07Hey.
14:08Hi.
14:09Hey.
14:14You should go.
14:16Huh?
14:17Whatever it is, you should chase it up. It's for the case, right?
14:21Yeah. You're probably right.
14:23Yeah.
14:24You know, I've got a feeling this is all going to go wrong.
14:27I don't know.
14:28I don't know.
14:29I don't know.
14:30I don't know.
14:31I don't know.
14:32I don't know.
14:33I don't know.
14:34Yeah.
14:35You know, I've got a feeling this isn't going to blow over soon.
14:37I hope so.
14:45G'day.
14:46Hey, mate.
14:47How are ya?
14:48Hey, guys.
14:49Hey, here they are.
14:51So, no work after all?
14:53Uh, no. It was just a quick consult.
14:56Cool. Well, you can have a drink with us.
14:58Yeah. Hey, where'd Cash go?
14:59Uh, just work stuff.
15:01You're a dark horse, aren't you?
15:03I need all of the details on this backup singer that you're seeing.
15:09You're told.
15:11I said I'd keep a secret.
15:13But you're one of our closest friends, Rumi.
15:15Exactly. So spill.
15:16And please, do not hold back.
15:20Uh, I...
15:21I'm fine. Go on.
15:26You know what? No. I don't want to talk about this.
15:28What's the problem? We're all friends, dude.
15:30Eden, stop it.
15:31For God's sake.
15:33Remi and Bri are back together again.
15:38That's right. We all know.
15:40What? I didn't know this. Is this true?
15:46Yeah.
15:49How long has this been going on for?
15:53I only found out today.
16:03I don't know if this is a good idea.
16:05You need to know what's inside.
16:07Yeah, but if you break that lock, they're going to know that I've been looking.
16:10Well, if I can get it open, they'll never know.
16:12We'll just lock it back up again.
16:13Yeah, and if we can't?
16:16Tane.
16:17Yeah, I heard you.
16:19Yeah.
16:20It's not working anyway.
16:23So what now?
16:25I don't know.
16:26I need time to think.
16:28You're already way too involved in this as it is.
16:31I need you to forget that you know anything about this, okay?
16:35So what are you going to do with it?
16:37I'm not going to leave it here.
16:39It's not fair on you or anybody else.
16:43I appreciate you trying to help.
16:45But I'll work out a way to get rid of it.
16:49Well, if you need a hand.
16:50I won't.
16:52Right.
16:53Let me know if that changes.
16:55Sure.
17:02Hey.
17:04Hey, can I grab a lasagna?
17:05Sure.
17:06Thank you.
17:08John.
17:09How are you?
17:10Oh, honestly.
17:11Yeah, why don't we start there?
17:13I'm tired of keeping secrets.
17:15Yeah, you think it'd be cool, but then you've just got this thing that you've got to carry around with you.
17:19It's not cool.
17:20It's not cool.
17:21It's not cool.
17:22It's not cool.
17:23It's not cool.
17:24It's not cool.
17:25It's not cool.
17:26It's not cool.
17:27It's not cool.
17:28It's not cool.
17:29It's not cool.
17:30It's not cool.
17:31It's not cool.
17:32It's not cool.
17:33I might have to carry around with you.
17:34Yeah, yeah, it can be a burden.
17:35Yeah, so my question is, why aren't people just honest about what's really going on?
17:40Darling, you haven't touched your food.
17:43Is everything all right?
17:44Is something wrong?
17:46Yeah, actually there is.
17:47Sorry, I have to go.
17:55Hi, how are you?
17:57You know what? I don't think he is being completely honest with us.
18:01I know when he's lying. I think he's speaking to Irene.
18:07John, can I please talk to Irene?
18:09OK, great.
18:11How is she?
18:12Irene? Yeah, she's good. Trippy. Yep.
18:14So why can't I talk to her?
18:16Of course you can. She was in the car. The line dropped out.
18:19Anyway, I've got to go. People to see. Things to do.
18:27We need to get to the bottom of it.
18:29Don't worry, I will.
18:40Are you OK?
18:41Yeah, sure. I'm going to go sit outside for a bit.
18:44Hang on, before you go outside...
18:45Remy, I'm fine.
18:46Rae, you're not fine.
18:48Look, I know that didn't come out the way you wanted it to.
18:50Yeah, I've been pretty clear on that.
18:52Yes, I get that. But it's out now.
18:55So can we just celebrate the fact that our friends are happy for us?
18:58I mean, you were the one who was worried about expectations.
19:00That was pretty positive, as far as I can tell.
19:02OK, fine.
19:04Rae, what is going on?
19:06Well, how can I celebrate something that I didn't want to happen?
19:08Well, never.
19:10Can we please just not do this?
19:12Are you having second thoughts about us?
19:13What?
19:14No, because I need to know if you're having regrets.
19:26Hey.
19:28Thanks for meeting me.
19:30Ah, good timing, actually.
19:32Everything OK?
19:34Yeah, yeah, yeah. Nothing for you to worry about.
19:36What can I do for you?
19:39So, listen, I've been thinking about what you were saying before,
19:43about parenting and, you know, all that stuff and responsibilities and...
19:49Look, if you're worried about me supporting Perry...
19:51No, no.
19:52I'm going to sort it out, OK?
19:53No, no, no.
19:54Actually, I've been thinking,
19:56is there a way we can find out what school he was at?
19:59I thought we decided that you'd talk to him first.
20:02Yeah, yeah, we did, but it just hit me that I don't even know what year he got to.
20:05And given he spent time in juvie, he's probably way behind in his studies,
20:08so I just want to find all that out before I talk to him about going back.
20:12You've been thinking about this a lot, haven't you?
20:15Yeah, it's pretty much all I've been thinking about.
20:18You know what? I'll catch up with you later.
20:22Up.
20:29Thank you.
20:30Harper, hey.
20:33Listen, if I said something to upset you before...
20:36No, you didn't.
20:37You sure?
20:38Because if you think I'm going about things the wrong way with Perry, just say so.
20:41Oh, it's not about that.
20:43Then why'd you want to meet up?
20:45Then why'd you want to meet up?
20:48Can we just do this some other time?
20:51You okay? Hey, what's going on?
20:53Nothing.
20:54Harper? Harper, what's the matter?
20:56Just...
20:57Hey, let's sit down.
20:58Oh, hey, Harper! Hey, hey, hey, hey.
21:01Harper, what's going on? Are you okay?
21:03Harper?
21:09Three glasses of your house wine.
21:11Three. One for Leah, one for Naz, and one for moi.
21:15Cheers.
21:17As long as I'm in control, why shouldn't I be able to join in the fun?
21:21Well, it sounds like you've given it a lot of thought, Marie.
21:24I have, Naz. Thank you.
21:28I know you're worried, I understand.
21:30But it's really hard to be critical when she seems so happy.
21:33She's happier than she's been for such a long time.
21:35Let's see how long that lasts.
