Colby: Of all the swabs that were submitted,
how many came from ms Lawson?
90% of them.
Did you test any swabs from Nathan Spears' home?
The evidence focused on Kate Lawson.
We'll be moving Nathan Spears up the witness list.
You didn't Mark my essay.
If you want to appeal the grade, you have to go through the school.
I don't need you to keep checking in.
We're fucked.
They got the spermiogram results back.
Gold medal swimmers.
Yeah!
She had really bad mood swings, didn't she?
Did she ever get a diagnosis?
Therapy is for white people.
Thank you very much.
Is there any reason Jamie can't pick them up?
Gabby's just going to help out for a little bit.
You know that Gabby just wants to get in your pants, right?
Jamie, that's not true. You want her in your pants?
The defence are pointing out
the police failure to investigate Claire Spears' father, Nathan.
Why are you this calm?
I've got nothing to hide.
(Theme music)
Thank you, Sonia. That was delicious.
We've got something special with dessert.
Phone.
The meal's not finished yet.
I was nice to your puttana, now give me my phone.
Just wait till after the surprise, please?
Claire,
I know this has been hard for you,
but we think you're going to be
the best big sister any baby could wish for.
A baby.
Wow.
I had a feeling you were up the duff,
not drinking wine with your lunch.
I don't even miss it.
That's fine, dad can drink for two.
When are you due?
March.
We wanted you to be the first to know.
What if you do one of those tests and it's got too many chromosomes?
You know, 'cause you're not that young.
It's a bit of a myth.
Oh, did you weed the dud ones out through a test tube?
We didn't do ivf.
Can I have my phone?
I should let mum know.
That can wait.
Yeah, you're right, I should just book her into the clinic.
You know, 18 days after your wedding.
How long do you reckon this one will be?
You know, it's funny, just all those years saying no to a second child
and what, now you're raw dogging wife number two...
(Shouts) That's enough!
Enough!
You make me wanna vomit!
Darling,
it'll be ok.
I'm their reasonable doubt.
What? Her defence needs reasonable doubt.
I'm their best chance of getting it.
What if I get a detail wrong on the stand tomorrow?
My love, you are not the one on trial, ok?
(Theme music)
Jamie: Alice, did you remember your library bag?
Alice: Yeah.
Hey, did my alarm not go off?
Your boss sent you another ten emails.
Yeah, I'm being cc'd.
That's just to keep me in the loop.
Hey. Hey, hey, hey, what's wrong?
You don't love dad anymore.
What? No, that's not true.
That is not true at all.
Come on, we don't want to be late. In you go.
I'll come and join you at swimming, after work.
Clearly, you're not coping very well by yourself,
so I think it's probably easier if I'm there, yeah?
(Car door closes)
And I've told you, I don't want your boss collecting the children.
Ok?
Have a great day at school, guys.
Jamie: Seatbelts on.
Love you.
Love you. Bye.
Jamie: Let's go.
(Car engine starts)
Yeah, luiz alvez.
Hospital employee: Ok.
He...
He passed away in intensive care.
Hospital employee: Are you able to give me
the date he passed away, please?
It was Friday.
Hospital employee: And can I confirm that you're a family member?
Yeah, yeah.
Hospital employee: Oh, I'm so sorry.
And what was your name, please?
Turn and face the judge.
Do you swear by almighty god
that the evidence that you shall give will be the truth,
the whole truth, and nothing but the truth?
If so, please say 'i do'.
I do.
Thank you for joining us, mr Spears.
So, before you studied architecture,
you went to art school with the accused, correct?
That's right, yes.
And through knowing Kate Lawson, you met her sister, Diane.
I did, yes.
I married her. Bloom: And was it a happy marriage?
Yes, it was, initially.
Very.
Bloom: Were you always faithful?
No.
I regret that I did have an affair.
Bloom: But despite this, you tried to repair the marriage, yes?
Of course, we both did.
For the sake of our daughter, for Claire.
And afterwards, I was proud
because, you know, we tried even harder as two divorced parents.
I appreciate that this is difficult for you,
so if you're able,
talk to us about the challenges that you had with your daughter, Claire.
Claire was the brightest, kindest, most loving child.
She was everything a parent could have wished for.
And then...
She changed.
(Clears throat) Under...
..Kate's influence, she became rude, rebellious.
It was as if her innocence had just been ripped away.
Night and day.
(Knock on door)
Claire, it's dinner, love.
I've got your phone.
Claire.
What the fuck?
Claire!
Sonia!
Sonia: What is it?
She's gone. Oh, god.
Right, call her friends.
You can start with amita and that deadshit, Blake.
Diane? No.
Not till we have to.
Claire!
(Intense sombre music)
(Cellphone dings)
It's ok. She's had a long walk.
She's had a big cry.
She's taken herself to bed.
She tell you what upset her?
Oh, yeah.
Diane's gonna be gutted.
You can't tell her, not yet.
(Scoffs) You know she's gonna find out...
Yeah, I know she's gonna find out.
She just seems to be in a really good place.
Ok? She's got weekends with Claire,
she's back at work.
You do know you're the only person I can say all this to.
You know that, right?
Come on, let's have a drink.
Hm?
Does Diane know about this?
They're just reference photos.
And what exactly are you exhibiting?
I mean...
She looks like she's been strangled in this.
(Laughs)
Oh, I seem to recall a grad show
where seven different artists used your cock in their work.
Yeah, well I was 20, Kate.
Right, she's a child.
Claire is an artist.
That work is as much hers as it is mine.
That is bullshit.
Bullshit.
You're manipulating her.
And I can't let you do this.
I think you underestimate just how much of you there is in Claire.
Hm?
We both got caught in your web, Kate.
And that's what happens.
And I don't make any apology, at all,
for trying to keep my daughter away from her.
The thing is, I never trusted Kate.
Ever.
Why not?
Well, at the start, and this is...
This is not a secret.
Her photography was seen as a kind of therapy for a...
For a very troubled mind...
Objection.
Judge muir: Mr Spears, you must stick to the facts.
This is not an opportunity for you to speculate,
or dare I say, critique the accused's artworks.
Do you understand? Yes.
Sorry, I understand.
Bloom: Thank you, your honour.
So, you mentioned that Claire was a part of Kate Lawson's artwork.
Did she ever share with you what it was that she was doing?
Well, I saw it for myself.
I mean, she was just forced to grow up too fast.
She was manipulated into situations
she didn't have the maturity to understand.
And she was taken along to adult parties.
She was plied with alcohol.
She was a prop in morbid, sexual artworks.
And what were you able to do
to shield Claire from these adult experiences?
Well at that point, I didn't have any influence.
She responded to Kate's obsessions, all of them.
They were extreme, very disturbing ideas.
Choking herself.
And all that was...
Was online.
The images. The...
Sorry.
And what did you do to protect her?
I asked my ex-wife to intervene.
I begged her to keep our daughter away from Kate Lawson.
Act like a mother,
and not allow our daughter to be groomed by some sexual predator.
You're a liar. You're a fucking liar.
Mr Colby, please remind your client where she is.
Colby: Your honour.
(Soft sombre music)
It's not personal.
When he tells the court how you handed Claire over to that woman.
He's just telling the truth.
First time for everything.
I ask myself, how could any mother abandon her child like that?
You'll never know.
Vanessa: Hey.
We broke late, and I still have to get back by 1:30.
It's all good.
Chill, mama.
She's running a bit late anyway.
Ah, sorry, this thing always mucks up.
Anyway.
Where were we?
Six months.
Jay's pathology clear.
We can unfreeze the sperm.
Great!
Oh, that's wonderful.
So, are we going to do pgd or pgs?
Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis.
Full genetic work-up of you and the donor,
plus blood samples from you and your close family members.
Is there something in your family?
Cystic fibrosis, muscular dystrophy?
I don't know.
No.
I'm the one with the fertility issues.
Let's start the fsh, and you can decide before harvesting.
So...
..Just need your autograph.
Cool.
Corrie: Yeah, absolutely. Sydney's actually pretty similar.
Can I ask you a favour?
Yes.
You have this little habit of breathing out through your nose.
I beg your pardon!
It just gets really distracting in court.
You know, when you scoffed, the witness actually looked over.
You have no idea what I'm thinking in court.
Everything alright here?
You seem a bit... Yes, fine, thank you.
I'm doing my best in this process.
So best you all mind your own blinking beeswax.
Let me get on with it.
('Dance monkey' by tones and I playing)
Mr Spears, when did you become aware of this video?
The night of the disappearance.
She posted it on Instagram.
Hey, have a look at this. Quick.
Have a look at what Kates's letting her do.
(On phone) Claire: You sure you're ready?
Because I'll have to impose a penalty shot if you're not.
I'm gonna go get her.
Hey.
Sorry, sorry, sorry.
I'm ok.
Are you sure? Ok, it's mild cramps.
Doctor Google says it's normal.
I can stay here if you want me to stay here.
Look, I...
I don't think this is too bad.
They're doing vodka shots, for Christ's sake, Sonia, alright.
If the school sees this, she's gonna be suspended.
That's what's gonna happen. Yeah.
Look, I'll go get her, I'll come back, I'll look after you.
Alright? I've just gotta go get her.
Yeah, ok. No, that's ok.
I'm ok.
Go.
Ok.
Where was the last time that you saw your daughter?
At Kate Lawson's house.
Bloom: And what prompted you
to go to the house of the accused that night?
She was drinking,
and I was scared of what Kate might make Claire do,
once she was disinhibited.
What were you thinking, posting that shit online?
Bloom: So, you were concerned for her welfare?
Yes. Stop stalking me.
You're coming home with me, now.
She was under Kate's spell, so she would have agreed to anything.
Get up!
Don't fucking touch me!
Fetish gear, sexual transgression,
porno poses.
What did you do once you arrived at the accused's that night?
I tried to convince Claire to come with me, to come home.
What are you on about?
I saw it. Get off me!
Come with me. Get in the car.
Bloom: And why didn't she?
She told me that she had a commitment to Kate,
that they were planning to complete a photographic series,
and there was one last image to shoot.
(Indistinct arguing)
You know what, dad?
Don't fucking come back!
Hey... No, don't.
Claire, get back in the car.
Piss off! Claire, get back in the car!
What the fuck do you think you're doing?
And what are you doing, right?
You're letting them drink
and then brag about it on social fucking media?
What the fuck is wrong with you?
Grow up! I wasn't doing anything...
Claire get back in the car!
Don't speak to her that way, and don't speak to me that way.
What did you tell her?
I haven't told her anything.
That's a fucking lie.
We'll talk about this later, alright?
Not here.
I can't fucking believe you said that.
It was Kate who actually stopped me.
Look, I know how to care for my daughter,
but it's difficult to be the disciplinarian
when you have this free spirit who doesn't listen to rules.
Kate was acting possessive.
She was totally obsessed with Claire.
It was Kate who pushed me away,
and I will always regret
that I didn't convince my daughter to get away from her that night.
After you left, did you have any further contact with your daughter?
I didn't see my daughter again.
Bloom: That's all, your honour.
(Sombre music)
Alice: Mum!
It's toy time in the big pool!
It's not too deep if you come in with me.
I have to stay. I've got to look after Marcus.
Please?
Maybe your dad...
Maybe your dad can go in with you.
I'm not scared.
You're not scared? Come on.
Ok. Let's go.
Gabby's over there.
Gabby?
What's your boss doing here?
Please, mum, those giant slide,
there's so many sharks!
I don't know.
Marcus, are you cold?
Dad, let's go. Just wait!
Did you tell her we were coming to the pool today?
I don't know who I told.
Jamie, I come here all the time with the kids.
I don't know which one of my colleagues knows that.
She just wants to perve on you.
Come on, who's brave enough?
Jamie?
This is going to be so much fun!
Jamie: Hey, hey. Wait, wait.
Just slow down.
Wait there.
Gabby: Hi!
Children: Hi! Marcus: Hi, Gabby.
Funny coincidence.
Jamie: Is it?
A coincidence?
What? Georgina: Jamie.
Why did you come to the pool today?
I swim laps here.
Oscar: Dad, it's started!
Can we go now, please?
No, not without supervision.
Please? I said, no.
Hey, are you guys... Are you hungry?
Do you want to get a snack?
Yeah? Ok.
Have you had the chippies at the cafe?
Children: Chippies!
Let's do that, alright? Come on, let's get some chippies.
Gabby can come with us.
Let's do that.
Hey.
Thanks, Gabby. Here's some sauce.
I have to congratulate you, George.
Hr have nominated you for a salmon award.
(Scoffs)
What on earth is that?
Georgina and Gabby: Salmon swim upstream.
Snap!
It's our incentive award.
Well, my wife here is certainly good at swimming against the current.
(Whispers) Come on.
Oh, you know there's something else that she's good at.
Something that she's really, very good at.
Hey, Jamie, just give it a break, hey?
Please.
Blowjobs.
She gives excellent blowjobs.
I'm gonna see you at work.
See you, kids.
Oscar: Bye, Gabby! Alice: Bye, Gabby!
Jamie, that's my boss, for fuck sake.
What?
Baby, if there was a prize for that,
you would blow the competition out of the water.
Just don't... It was a joke.
..Thank you. What? George...
George, come on.
Flip: What are you doing?
For the widow. What?
We're giving it to her.
Hey, you listen to me, right?
He's the one who chose not to wear that harness on the scaffold.
Us moving him didn't change that, Lex.
The cause of death was...
The cause of death was the brain injury, not the bleeding.
Well, how do you know that?
How do you know the cause of death?
One of the union reps.
You told me to keep my mouth shut.
Now you're off blabbing to fuck knows who?
We left that man for dead, flip.
We did that, right?
And you're worried about some fucking money?
It's not the fucking money, Lex, alright?
This is about our family.
(Shouts) And what about his family?
What about his family, flip?
They deserve something.
We don't even know her name.
Yeah, we'll find it out.
Why don't you start with the union rep?
Jarrod: Scholarship office?
I've got an appointment with Brian hancock?
Bryce.
Yeah, right, Bryce hancock.
Yeah, his parents didn't like him either.
(Chuckles)
I'll be a minute. Cool.
Easy, thank you.
Sorry, I was in court, and the buses...
Take a seat.
I've got a couple of minutes.
Cool.
Ok, so that's my charge sheet.
Yeah, we've suspended your scholarship, is that right?
Because I didn't hand in my essay, and I was arrested.
That's proof.
Well, I imagine you'll get backpay. Take a seat.
Cops just can't wander around arresting students for no reason.
I got in contact with your tutor...
She's got it in for me, and she didn't listen to my excuse.
Well, did you listen to her? Yes.
I just wanted you to have the full picture
and that is that I did nothing wrong, and it was a wrongful arrest.
Yeah. Can you please take a seat?
You told me this would take a couple of minutes.
So can you just take your two minutes to call the administration
and confirm that my essay will be marked
once the appeal process is complete?
How about I look into it, hey?
How about I make a complaint to the education department, hey?
And how about I get paid the scholarship money
that you stopped for a bullshit reason?
Well as I said...
And how long will backpay take... Look.
Jarrod, the terms of the Stewart scholarship are pretty strict.
You could transfer to an indigenous scholarship
where they'll have more experience with these sorts of issues...
Sorry.
Are you scared of me?
I agreed to look into it, didn't I?
You think I'm gonna hit you.
You should leave.
Shit, you brought the posh stuff.
Yeah, Jay claims domestic gives him a headache.
Yeah, I think that's quantity, not quality.
Here's cheers to the mummas.
Cheers to the papas. Vanessa: Papas.
Adam and Vanessa: Eyes, eyes, eyes, eyes!
Adam: There's nothing wrong with public schools.
Jay: Oh, yeah, Vanessa and I went to one.
Yeah, especially if the kid gets into a selective one.
Oh, piss off.
We had an amazing time, didn't we ness?
Yeah. I mean, what if the baby has my attention span?
There's the risks though. Oh, my lord.
This thing's not even conceived yet, you boys already want a prefect.
Yeah. Money doesn't buy you guys
more sway. Just so you know.
Adam: Of course! We know.
Nessie, no one was saying that.
Jay: Paying for the education is just...
Yeah, we want to. ..To help.
And with the medical expenses... Because we can.
Yeah, it's just an offer. It's just a safety net.
We know, we know. It's generous.
That's why we spent the time.
We wrote this up. Yeah, it's just...
Our agreement.
..A contract's not really enforceable by law, that's all.
Hun. But communicating our intentions
and responsibilities helps.
I loved doing that.
To articulate the parents we wanna be, it's...
..Some parents, they just have a kid
but don't plan or don't even want it.
Adam: Yeah, they're called heterosexuals.
Well, we go to all this effort because of...
Logistics.
Because the kid is wanted, so wanted.
We are about to do this thing.
It's fucking exciting.
You're feeling different or something, Vanessa?
You don't know how I feel.
Ok.
I guess I just want some reassurance because we've spent all this money.
Money?
No. Come on, not just money.
I mean emotionally... No, no, no.
You said money.
Hey, I'm not having a go, ok?
I'm just speaking my needs too, yeah?
Because I've got the most at risk here.
I'm not on the birth certificate, so what am I,
just some guncle that can be... No.
Zoe: Adam.
Yeah, well I just feel undecided about the birth certificate.
That's all.
What? Why?
Well two mums is the normal way, it goes now.
Normal? What's normal?
We're gay. I just mean by law.
Didn't we talk this through? I thought I was on it.
You said.
I'm completely secure in my place in all this.
Really.
I don't need to be on the birth certificate.
We worked this out ages ago. That was my choice.
That was my offer... This is my call.
Ok?
It's my womb.
That is the only law that matters.
Actually.
Hun.
Ooh, I'm now a bit drunk.
Are we a bit drunk? I'm a bit...
Can we help clean up?
'Cause I've gotta work in the morning...
No, you should just go. We've got this under control.
(Tense music)
Before the night of 14 September, how many times did Claire run away?
Claire didn't run away.
Kate Lawson killed her.
How many times?
Claire ran away from Diane three or four times.
(Distant coughing)
She never ran away from me.
But on the weekend of 14 August,
you signed her out of the boarding house at school,
and Kate Lawson signed her back in.
If she didn't run away from you, how did she get to Kate's?
So, I allowed her to go.
Why?
You're under oath, mr Spears.
Because my wife was unwell.
(Distant coughing)
What was the first thing you said when the police contacted you
about Claire's disappearance? What was the first thing?
I told them that I feared
that Kate had done something terrible.
No, no, no. I have the statement right here.
I said to the police that I thought Kate had killed her.
Now that's interesting, isn't it?
Even though Claire had run away three or four times,
at least, by your admission
you immediately assumed
that she was dead.
I feared that, yes.
Yes. Now mr Spears, who is Daisy Curtis?
She doesn't exist. I made her up.
Mr Spears, did you create the following?
Daisy Curtis' tiktok account?
Yes. Daisy Curtis' Instagram account?
Yes.
And did you befriend your daughter under this guise?
You a parent?
Mr Spears, I really would answer the questions,
for your own sake.
Thank you, mr Colby, I'll ensure that.
Yes, your honour.
Now mr Spears, did you pose as Daisy Curtis
and encourage your daughter, and other young girls,
to follow you? I pinched some of her followers.
That was because I wanted Claire
to think it was convincing, authentic.
To deceive her. That's what we're talking about here.
Yes.
But it didn't matter that my followers
were other young girls.
Did you pinch from the Internet,
multiple images of a particular young girl and rename her Daisy?
Yes.
That's me being her father. Being a parent.
Answer the question please, mr Spears.
There were some images I found, yes.
Sheriff, could you show the images please?
(Distant coughing)
Did you select this profile pic?
Yes, I did.
Mm. What made you choose her?
Did you find her an appealing sort of girl?
No! Attractive...
Objection! How is that relevant?
Yes, stick to the point, mr Colby.
Yes, your honour.
Now you regarded yourself
as the disciplinarian of your daughter, right?
No. Well, we could check the transcript.
I believe you described yourself exactly that
to my learned friend just yesterday.
Were you ever physical in your reprimanding of Claire?
No, I wasn't.
And yet on that last night,
you grabbed her and dragged her to the car, did you not?
This is what Kate has told you.
We've all seen the cctv, mr Spears.
Well, she likes to stretch the truth.
Now, I will stop you there... That's what criminals do.
The jury will disregard mr Spears' last comment.
Mr Spears, you must answer the questions put to you.
Go ahead.
I was no more hands on than any other...
..Caring, very worried father.
Are you worried, mr Spears,
that your lies are beginning to catch up with you?
Objection!
Simon: Oh, he's obviously not perfect.
You know, he's made his mistakes, and overprotective and that.
You know, I get it. But he's a father.
At the end of the day, he's a dad who's lost his child.
Posing as a little girl.
Bit creepy, don't you think, guys?
I tell you what, I say to my daughter,
"you know, once that stuff is out there,
"you've lost it forever."
You know, dancing online in a...
I don't know, a bikini or whatever.
Employers will look at their accounts.
That's the world now.
Of course you have to monitor them. Of course.
You do you, but I think privacy is privacy.
Yeah, ok. Even for kids.
But you can say that you wouldn't do it,
but when you're worried about the welfare of a child...
You're risking them never trusting you again.
It's not right.
What do you think?
Ah...
..Well I...
..I don't really know what's gonna happen
when my daughter's older.
It's not about us. It's about Nathan Spears
and what he'd do.
The guy's unhinged.
You can see it. We all saw his temper.
And he clearly has a thing for younger girls.
Oh, what? And for Kate.
Oh, come off it. Hey! I see what I see.
A murderer?
Reckon he could have?
More than Kate, yes.
In here, in this room...
..You can't just throw around these comments.
Jarrod: Isn't that what we're here for?
If you are genuinely concerned
about what this Nathan is capable of...
Well, maybe I am.
Yeah, same. I think he's deranged.
If you have even an inkling
that he could have committed this crime...
He's not on trial.
He's not.
Go on, man.
That's reasonable doubt.
You're speaking about reasonable doubt.
We'd be obliged to acquit.
(Tense music)
Oh!
Well, the defence barrister's mr happy pants today, wasn't he?
He's certainly got tickets on himself.
Ooh, what have you got there?
Your wife make it?
She used to.
I wish I could ask her the trick to this recipe.
It's um...
Well, it looks very delicious.
You wanna try some?
Oh, no, I wasn't angling for that.
No! Come on.
Have a bite. Oh, alright.
Mm!
Mm! Aren't you clever?
Oh, delicious!
Must be getting close, then.
Nearly got it right.
Oh, it's beautiful. What about you?
What have you got there? I've got a salad sandwich.
Colby: That last night, after you argued with your daughter
and dragged her to the car,
where'd you go after that?
Nathan: I went to the movies.
And I provided the police with a ticket stub.
So, you can't have been that concerned?
I go to the movies to keep myself calm.
Do you always keep the stubs when you go to the cinema?
No, probably not.
And what did you do after the cinema?
I went home to my wife and went to bed.
Do you have a boat licence?
Yes. Do you have access to a boat?
I borrow a friend's. And where's it moored, this boat?
It's moored in middle harbour Marina.
Mm. Now, what did you and Claire argue about, exactly,
that last night in the car?
About her drinking.
About the stuff that she was posting online,
about the inappropriate things that Kate was allowing her to do.
Claire insisted on staying with her aunt
against your direct orders. Did that make you angry?
It was annoying. Annoying?
You stayed away from home for several hours to calm down.
Were you angry enough
to want to continue this fight with Claire?
I never saw Claire again.
Were you angry enough to borrow a friend's boat
and take it to the jetty
at the rear of Kate Lawson's property?
I never went back to Kate Lawson's property.
But did you go to a nearby jetty or Marina
to continue the argument... Objection.
Mr Spears has answered the question. Judge muir: I'll allow it.
No. I didn't.
But she had defied your authority.
She betrayed you in favour of her aunt
and you were determined to fight for your daughter.
I'm still fighting for my daughter.
Where is Claire, mr Spears?
I don't know.
To be clearer,
what did you do with her body
after you left the Marina that night?
If you are implying that I have harmed my daughter,
then there is a special place in hell for you, sir.
Mr Spears... Kate Lawson...
..Killed my daughter.
(Tense music)
Just get to the point, flip.
Did you get her name?
Yeah, yes. We'll do it together, I swear to god.
Just tell me her name.
Carla.
Ok, good. What about an address?
Mate, I gotta, I gotta go. Yeah, I'll see you after court.
Yep, yeah, I hear you. Yep. Ok, bye.
How much of that did you just hear?
All of it.
Why, was it something I wasn't supposed to hear?
No, maybe I was organising a date with another woman.
Really?
That sounds fun.
Can I come?
That might complicate things.
Maybe I like complicated.
We can do better than this.
Mm.
Tonight?
Mm.
Hey.
Hey. I think we've earned a drink.
Let's go to the royal. I would love to, but I can't.
Ollie is in the semis debating at a grammar.
Ah, here's my car. I'll see you. See you in the morning.
Hi, darling.
Yes, I am running late. I know, again.
As I've said, I just...
..Just be calm. You've done your prep,
you trust your teammates. It's...
Ah, yeah. No, I'm so...
..Like I said, I'm really happy to give him a lift as well.
Look, I'm in the tunnel now, so I'll be home in a minute.
Alright, I love you.
Pull over. Why?
I can't. We're in a tunnel.
Yes, I can see that, but you...
..Why did you pick me up?
It was a...
..A different name.
Ah, Lucy...
Warren. Warren.
Warren, yes. It's my married name.
You know, this could cause a mistrial?
There is actually nothing in the jury act
about incidental contact.
You've read the jury act?
I'm a lawyer.
Well, I was a lawyer.
In mosul.
Right up until, Isis took the city.
Of course.
My wife and child...
..Son...
..They're still in Iraq.
Until I get them here, I can't afford to stop working,
study, get the Australian qualification.
Yes, I understand.
And you're right, we're in a tunnel and I'm running late,
so we can keep, I suppose.
We won't talk about the trial.
We don't have to talk about anything.
(Birds chirping)
You left early this morning.
Didn't get to talk to you about last night.
I can't believe the boys. Adam is such a privileged douchebag.
You completely sideswiped him.
Me?
They were the ones swinging their dicks around,
to sabotage everything.
No, it's you, putting it at risk.
All of it.
We are in this.
Babe, we are deep in this.
Yeah, we're in the logistics of it, but you know.
No, I don't know.
I don't.
What's this change?
'Cause I tell you what else you're putting at risk.
Us.
So, this fucking trial, it...
I need you to know that it's...
..That it's making me see some things about my...
That's bullshit.
You do this.
You're avoidant.
You make excuses when something matters.
You deflect.
But we have been through so much.
Don't do it again, babe.
Don't do it again.
(Tense music)
You really think I'd do that?
Yeah, I do, actually.
It's a plagiarism investigation.
I regard your writing that highly, do I, that I think it's stolen?
Well, someone does.
Who else have you pissed off?
Just some pen-pusher in administration.
There's an appeals process.
That'll take ages. My scholarship's already on hold because of...
Can you help me, please?
You understand how this stuff works,
and I don't get it.
It could be an error.
They run all essays through plagiarism programs.
You see? You understand how the system works here.
Actually, I do.
But there are rules about not attending classes
and not handing in assignments.
The arrest affected me more than what I thought it would.
You're a smart kid.
Put your head down. Do the work.
Right.
For you.
Thank you. Alright.
Dad says this stuff's unhealthy.
Ah, dad doesn't have time to cook, so mum gets to choose.
I already have a hat.
Ok. Can you please carry Alice's hat, then?
Thank you. Ohh!
Oh! Oh, my goodness!
Hang on, did one of you guys put bricks in these bags, is it?
Not me. Are you sure? 'Cause, oh!
I don't know.
Can't seem to lift them off the ground.
I think we're gonna have to eat dinner on the driveway.
Let me try. You can try?
Ok.
How are you so strong?
What? That's crazy!
Thank you, I wouldn't have been able to do that without you.
That's incredible.
You alright with this? I think ours is heavy.
Definitely heavier.
I'm stronger!
Hey, monsters!
All: Daddy!
Hey.
Jamie, can...
Can you take your feet off the table, please?
Come on, the kids aren't allowed to do that.
Hey, Alice?
Come here, sweetie.
Who picked you up from school today?
Hey, look at me. It's bad to lie.
Gabby, alright?
I told you I can't get there in time.
Can you start dinner?
Can you set the table? It's gonna be ready pretty quick.
Thank you.
Oh, no! Oh, no!
Did the lady really murder a child?
We don't really know.
If you don't know,
the lady might go to jail for nothing.
That's why there's 12 of us.
So, if we all do our very best
and we all try really hard,
then hopefully, we'll make the right decision.
(Beeping)
Dinner time, boys.
Ok, finally.
Would you like some salad?
Yeah.
There you go.
Would you boys like some salad?
Yep? Mm-hmm.
Alright, for you.
It's ok, eat your dinner.
(Tense music)
It's ok.
(Tense music)
Hey. Hey.
I thought you were going to go to bed?
Yeah, yeah, soon.
Back rub, hmm?
Mm-hmm. Can you not?
I just don't feel like being rubbed.
(Tense music)
Righto.
Claire did run away from here, Nathan.
(Tense music)
Look...
..It was just easier
not having to explain our private information.
What else are you lying about?
I'm not lying about anything.
Anything.
Did you really go to the movies?
(Tense music)
(Dramatic music)
Fuck!
(Dramatic music)
(Dramatic music continues)
