It's beating so fast.
( theme music playing ) ( clicking, thuds ) ( monkey chatters ) It's a good day Everything over here, is okay Okay It's a good day, the sun is shining my way My way It's a good day, it's gonna be better than Sunday.
We'll see how we go from there, shall we? Okay, great.
If you want to take your seat, the boys are coming in now.
Ahem.
Boys, what's up, dox? Sir, what are we doing? Why have you got the desks like this? What's up, G? Joseph: Boys, like I told you before, Jonah, we've got a couple of special visitors with us today.
Israel: Fuck off.
Who are they? It's the Catholic Education people.
We have to be good-- Jonah: Hey, Miss, hi, Sir.
Welcome to Spaz House.
Have a seat.
Settle in.
Jonah, just take your seat and look after yourself please, son.
I'm just being welcoming, Sir.
All right then.
Very very good, but sit down.
Joseph: I've been under review at Lazarus House now for-- oh, a few months.
The principal here is a just a fucking major pain in the ass.
He's dobbed me in to the Catholic Education Office, 'cause he doesn't believe what we do here is any good.
Sitting up and listening up.
Joseph's voice: So they're out here sticky-beaking around, checking up on me, make sure I tick all the boxes.
Joseph: Thank you.
Joseph's voice: It's just a fucking pain in the dick.
What we've been doing in this class, as you know, uh, in the last couple of months is we've been talking about mechanics, yes, but we've also been talking about where that can take you.
Sir, what are you talking about? Yeah? Jonah, while I'm talking, thanks, you guys are listening, all right? Could we just do practical? This is shit.
( snickers ) Jonah, did I hear a swear word there? Do you want to go and stand in the naughty corner? What's the naughty corner? What the hell? What the hell is-- You just made that up because they're here.
Joseph: No, no I didn't.
Yeah, you did.
Joseph's voice: Well, I had a word to the kids about the observation day and told them, you know, just to keep it in check.
You know, not to swear and fuck around and just to play along with it for my sake.
So hand one of those back.
Thanks.
We don't even do worksheets.
Righto.
This is gay.
Just wait.
Sir, I need one.
Right, there you go.
It's the first time we got this.
Just a bit of patience.
There's two there, boys.
I'm not doing this.
No way.
Righto, move that out of the hallway there, Jonah.
I'm going to trip over it.
Right, what we might do is-- Fuck off, Sir.
Step over it.
Um we're going to brainstorm about ideas of careers in mechanics.
Okay, so we won't look at the worksheets just for a sec.
Anyone know of any careers in-- I've already started looking at them.
Joseph: Excuse me, Jonah, I'm talking, all right? Shut up, Jonah.
Does anyone know any careers in mechanics? Sir.
Sir, Sir, Sir.
Sir, Sir.
My dad.
My dad's a space mechanic.
( boys laughing ) He works on space stations.
What are you lying for? You are so full of shit, siana.
Fuck up.
It's true.
Righto, righto, that's enough language.
Jonah: It's fucking true.
My dad does! Language please! He's got two jobs.
He's a removalist and a space mechanic.
Righto.
That's enough.
You don't even know.
You don't even know, ask him.
Enough.
Jonah.
Enough, thank you.
Your dad's too fat to work in-- But they're lying.
Enough! Right, any ideas? Come on, just yell 'em out I'm telling the truth.
and I'll wack them up here on the whiteboard.
Jonah: Sir, this sucks.
Come on, think about it.
Anyone? Israel: Mechanic, mechanic.
Could we just play with the motors, Sir? This is boring.
Mechanic! All right, okay, what I want you to do is just-- then-- now-- have a look at these sheets ( Jonah sighs loudly ) and have a read of it, quietly.
Jonah: I can't read.
And-- Sir, I'm not doing this.
Because I'm going to be asking you questions on this in just a second, okay? Yeah? Ask away, because-- Ah, fuck, Sir.
( whispering ) Listen, dickhead, if I hear another fucking swear word come out of your mouth I'm going to hit you so fucking hard you won't be able to shit for a month.
Do you hear me? Yes.
Now just fucking behave.
I'm behaving.
Always behaving.
Joseph: Okay, everybody.
Hands up those who have finished reading.
Boy: Yep.
Yeah? Good.
Manu, write "fuck.
" We'll talk about what's on the sheet Huh? You write it.
Write "fuck.
" Big sign.
Write fuck.
And, Uh then we'll discuss and come up with some nice ideas.
Anyone? ( boys whispering ) Joseph: Okay.
Sir.
Yeah.
Yep, go ahead.
Sir! Yep? I didn't say it out loud, Sir.
I'm not allowed to.
Just put that down, Jonah, will you, and get rid of it? ( boys laughing ) Put it down and get rid of it.
Sir, this is what you are today.
Listen to me.
Come here.
Come up here.
Ah, fuck Sir, don't rip my arm off.
Oh, fuck 'em.
Get up here.
Fuck up.
Don't pull on my arm.
Just stand there.
Don't you fucking move.
I'm not moving.
Shut the fuck up.
Right, clearly Jonah can't be trusted to join in, so he's going to miss out, all right? Now anyone with ideas about careers in mechanics? Come on, let's hear them.
Put your hand up.
Yep, go on.
What-- ( gasps ) ( boys laugh ) You fuckin' prick! Fuck off, Sir! Don't push me.
Oh, fuck! I'll fall over.
Get back to your chair! You nearly knocked the desk over.
Boy: Oh, Sir! Get back to your You did it, Sir.
You did it.
fucking chair.
Manu: Look what you did, Sir.
Jonah: You pushed me.
It's your fault, dickhead.
Jonah, boys, come over.
Jonah: What does gayface want now? Manu: He's going to butt-fuck us.
What? Kool Kris: Hey, I just got an email from "Feel Da Beat.
" They've received our entry and they're reviewing it for possible inclusion in the area heats.
Is that it? So we're not in it? Well, not yet.
Why are you so excited, Krissy? Calm down.
Yeah, I thought a teacher had died or some shit.
Later.
Tell us when you have some actual news, Krissy boy.
Later.
Hey, I've got a good feeling about this.
I'm praying for it, guys.
Don't be a bully, "moolly, moolly.
" Shut up, Krissy boy.
You sound gay.
Sir, you're embarrassing us.
Everyone's looking.
And stop trying to have a relationship with us, Sir.
We're not homos.
Jonah: Dox, can I put this in your locker? ( horn beeping ) Mine? Yeah.
Yeah.
All right.
2, 5, 7 now! Ah, sucked in, I know your code.
Break into your locker.
Moses: Jonah, Jonah, Jonah.
Show us, show us.
Get it out.
Oh, is it-- Don't let anyone see.
Is it the thing? Good, dox.
Ready? Oh, you were telling the truth.
It's good, eh? This is mean as.
Don't touch the edge.
It's gonna be sharp.
Dox, this is sick as.
Is it? This is legit.
This can kill someone? Yeah, he told us it did.
It did.
It's killed someone.
Wait, look.
This is mean as, look.
Yeah, George told us.
It killed someone.
Hide it, hide it.
Quick, I've got to wrap it up.
Put it away, boys.
Hurry up, someone's looking.
Careful, put it in.
Oh, bro, that's mean as.
We should all get one.
See, put it up so it doesn't slip out.
Yeah, we should all get one.
Jonah.
You're coming with us.
Uh, no I'm not.
Dad said you have to.
Annie's got her mom's car and she's driving us home.
I'm not getting in a car with him.
I'm not getting in the car, mate.
So chill out.
What are you hanging out with my fat sister for? Are you desperate? Seriously, dude.
Have some respect for your sister.
Have some respect for my dick.
( laughing ) I'm not engaging in this Year 9 shit.
Jonah, Dad said you have to.
We've got church early in the morning and he doesn't want you fucking around on the street.
Well, I've got plans.
Well, you have to.
Dad said so.
I'm not.
I'll be at church later.
Don't worry.
What's in the bag there, buddy? You're squeezing it pretty tight.
Don't talk to my brother.
Stop trying to pick him up.
He's not gay.
It was a simple question, man.
I'm just wondering why he's squeezing his bag like he needs to go to the toilet and the bag's his dick.
Stop talking about my brother's dick.
Graydon: Shut up, spaz boy.
Fucking homo.
Mary: Ignore them both.
They've been acting like weirdoes since this morning.
Let's just go.
See you, gaylord.
Mary: By the way, I'm telling Dad that you didn't listen to what I say, so enjoy your hiding tonight.
Enjoy getting fat, fatty.
( laughing ) Jonah: Okay, boys, are you ready to do something brave? Yeah, I am.
Yeah.
Ready to do this? Yep.
Let's go, boys.
All: Fobba-liscious.
( steel drums playing ) ( insects chirping ) ( Jerome crying ) ( door clangs ) Jonah: Don't cry, siana.
It's gonna be okay.
It's all right, mate.
It's all right.
We'll get home soon.
Okay, all jewelry off.
Into the trays-- piercings, all of it.
What's gonna happen? Bro, I think our mom and dad's going to pick us up, I reckon.
Israel: Your dad's gonna get mad, siana.
Jerome: Why did we even do it? We're going to be okay, boys.
We'll be okay.
We'll go home soon and we'll laugh about it.
Yeah, man, we'll laugh.
( Moses crying ) I really wanna go home now.
Hey.
Siana, why you crying? Gee, don't cry, man.
We're Fobba-liscious.
We don't cry.
Fuck you, man.
You look like homos when you cry.
Don't call me a fucking homo.
Don't cry then.
I can cry if I want to.
Israel: Of course, dox.
No, you're too old to cry, dude.
Your dick's too old to cry.
Shut up.
Kool Kris: The police called the school and I came here straightaway.
They told me that the boys would be detained overnight.
The boys decided that it would be a good idea to hold up the Bowling Center, so they've gone over with a knife and yeah, it looks pretty serious.
So apparently Moses went in and held the knife first and demanded the staff hand over some sort of ornamental bowling ball.
And then Jonah went in and made some threats with the knife, but luckily security were able to control the situation fairly quickly.
But it's armed hold up, so, you know-- they were all in on it.
I feel really bad for them.
I feel really sorry for them.
They must be absolutely terrified in there, you know? So yeah, I'd hate to imagine how hard it must be right now.
( shower running ) Jonah: Boys, who need the shampoo? Boys: Me.
Yeah, siana.
Me me me! Who needs shampoo? Hey, siana look.
Hey, siana, look, mohawk.
Like my hair? I can't do that.
Officer: Pass that shampoo on, please.
Siana, chuck us the shampoo.
Here here.
I need more shampoo.
I've given it to you, ay.
Hey, Miss, have you got hair straighteners in prison? Yeah, Miss.
'Cause these boys need to straighten their hair otherwise it's gonna look shit.
I need to straighten-- No hair straighteners.
Jonah: Manu? What? Officer: Knock it off, I said.
( laughing ) You missed.
Shame.
Officer: Oi! Yeah! Hey, Miss, can you stop looking at me? I feel weird with you looking at me.
Guys, can you stop talking? You are in jail.
This is not a joke.
I'm just saying, Miss, I've got my dick out and you're looking at me.
It makes me feel weird.
Siana, shut up.
You're gonna get us in trouble, bro.
Tell her to stop looking at me.
It's weird.
Yeah, I know.
Hard, ay.
Moses, talk for once.
What are you doing? Man, he's probably jerking off, ay.
( boys laugh, jeer ) Yay, Moses.
Moses! Jerk it! Leave him alone, boys.
Miss, you definitely have to go now.
My brother's jerking off.
Look, shut your mouths, do as your told.
This is your last warning, all right? ( boys chatter ) You've got the use of the facilities for the next couple of hours before bed.
No running, no swearing, no harming others.
This is gay, boys.
Oh shit.
Sit down, sit there.
Fellas.
Hey.
I know you, ay? You know someone I know.
Do you know Kylie? Uh, no.
Yeah, I'm sure you know her, mate.
She said she knows you.
No, I don't know her.
Yeah, where are you from? Summer Heights.
Yeah, that's where Kylie's from.
I know her too.
She was in not long ago having a visit with one of the brother boys.
You know her, ay? Uh, no, I've never heard of her.
Nah, I'm pretty sure you know her.
She said she knows you.
Do you boys know her? I'm not talking to them.
I'm talking to you.
What? You know her, ay? Oh, yeah, I do.
I know Kylie.
( inmates laugh ) Wrong answer.
You're a pussy, bruz.
Fucking pussy.
All you boys are pussies.
I can tell.
Fobs are always pussies.
Fuck up, Jarrod.
All Abo's are dumb fucks, you know that? Inmates: Ooooh.
You want to get cut, you racist dog? Come here, you racist fuck.
( bangs ) Hey! If you can't speak nicely to the new inmates, just shut your mouth.
( door creaks ) Man: Jonah and Moses Takalua.
Come with me, boys.
You've got people to see.
Officer: I'll take this one, thanks.
Later, siana.
Take care, siana.
Fobba-liscious.
Fobba-liscious.
Kool Kris: Hey, Jonah.
Sir.
How are you? Good.
Aunty.
Moses.
Good to see you.
Um, take a seat please.
Yeah.
Thank you.
How are you, guys? Jonah: Good.
Moses: Good.
You guys all right? Yeah.
We got new track suits.
Kool Kris: Yeah, they look great.
Nah, these are horry as, Sir.
They're shit.
Look at my shoes.
Look, Velcros.
Mmm, nice.
Gay as.
That's okay.
Nah.
They're gay, Sir.
Well, so I spoke to the legal aid lawyer and he reckons that we can have the parole hearing in about six weeks.
But because of your previous convictions, Jonah, you might be in here for a while.
Do you understand what I'm saying? Yes Sir.
Okay.
Now, Moses, you've got a criminal record too, but because of your age and your learning difficulties, the lawyer said that we can try and get you out sooner.
All right? Yes Sir.
But, Jonah, you might be in here for a while.
Aunty, don't cry! I don't even care about being in here.
It doesn't matter.
Your dad is very very angry.
He said to throw the key away.
Well, he's a homo.
Kool Kris: Come on, Jonah.
Your aunty's upset, all right? Let's try and lay off those kind of comments.
He is one though.
I'd shut up if I were you.
Who asked you, fatty? What are you doing here anyway? I was forced to come here and see your face.
Well, go home.
Get the train home.
I'm here to support Aunty.
Look anyway, your dad said he really wanted to be here, but because of work and it's a long drive, he decided not to come.
Okay? But he does care about what's going on.
Whatever.
Mary: Don't say whatever.
Leave him alone.
Say sorry for bringing shame to the family.
Say sorry for bringing shame to my dick.
( boys laugh ) Jonah, none of us are finding this funny, okay? It is funny, Sir.
Get a sense of humor.
Okay, can you tell me more about what happened? Why did you want the bowling ball? 'Cause it's worth heaps.
If you melt it down it's worth $10,000.
And I was going to use the money to take Moses to Los Angeles for his record deal.
If it's worth that much, why is it in a bowling alley? Jonah: Shut up, fatty.
You don't even know.
Shouldn't it be in, like, a museum or some shit? You don't know.
Hey, kids, please be nice to each other.
Tell fatty to shut up then.
Mary: Shut up.
You don't even know anything.
You don't even go bowling.
Okay, so who gave you the knife? Jonah: George.
From the Soldierz.
George Kakalukai.
Kool Kris: Yeah, right.
You know those guys are trouble, right? You don't even know anything, Sir.
You don't know anything about being brave, because you're too gay.
Those guys have done time.
You realize that, right? So? They drive around in probably stolen cars looking to recruit good boys like you.
You want to try and stay away from them, trust me.
You don't want to get involved.
Sir, if they weren't brave, then why do they have their tattoos then? They've got full tattoos on their arm and when I'm older and I get my full tattoo in Tonga, then I'm gonna be as tough and brave as them.
You are so embarrassing right now.
Time's up.
Wrap it up please.
Okay.
Well, we can talk about that-- more about that later.
Now please.
Yeah sure.
But I do have some good news.
What? I had a call from "Feel Da Beat" and you guys have been selected to perform in the area heats.
Oh yeah! Kool Kris: Six weeks-- Guys.
We'll perform in front of a real audience? Yep.
Oh yes, Sir.
We got to get you guys out.
To win it! But me and the boys can practice in here, in jail.
We can practice.
Well, the thing is-- the thing is they haven't got as many convictions as you, so they're being released tonight.
Jonah: So they're going and I'm staying? It will just be you and Moses.
Boys, boys! Guess what? I just found out from Sir.
I've got to stay six weeks, but we got in "Feel Da Beat.
" We're going to perform in front of an audience.
Boys, practice.
Make sure you practice.
Come on.
Israel: You too, Moses.
Fuck off.
I'm saying goodbye to them.
Look after your brother, bro.
Fobba-liscious, boys.
Fobba-liscious.
Love you, siana! ( chattering ) Boy: Hey, look who's here, look who's here.
Who are these fuckers? Jarrod: That's pussy one and his little brother pussy two.
From Summer Heights.
They know Kylie.
Is that a Tongan tattoo? Yeah, siana.
Wanna have a look? Fuck you.
I'm not your siana.
I don't give a fuck about your tattoo.
Guard: Just keep walking.
Keep walking, you dumb fuck.
Oi, you monkey dog.
Keep walking.
Officer: Jonah Takalua, 202.
Moses Takalua, 203.
You're lucky that we had two next to each other.
Lights out in five.
No talking after lights out.
Jarrod: Hey, Miss Cooper.
All right, I do not need any crap from you tonight, I can assure you.
Nah, I'm hungry.
Officer Leonard usually lets me and the boys have some leftovers.
Hey, Moses.
Moses, come in here.
Cooper: Well, I'm not Officer Leonard.
The dinner looked like shit.
Now I'm hungry.
Cooper: I can't force you to eat it.
That's your problem.
Jarrod: I wanna eat now but-- Cooper: Well, enjoy that thought because you're not going to.
She won't even care.
We save space anyway.
Jarrod: You suck, Miss.
Cooper: Right, lights out.
Jarrod: Nah, it's too early.
You said five minutes.
( groans ) I'm in charge, what I say goes.
And I said I wanted no cheek from you.
Lights out.
It's not cheek.
I'm just standing up for my prison rights, Miss.
( Jonah/Moses singing softly ) I feel sad, I feel pain When you call me that name I'm a person just like you Boy: Shh, shut up.
Don't be a bully, I feel sad, I feel pain When you call me that name I'm a person just like you Don't be a bully Hey, bullies, listen up-- Hey, what's going on here? We're not sharing cells.
Out.
Miss, we do this at home.
It saves space.
That means you get a free cell next door.
It doesn't work that way.
Come on.
Move.
Moses Takalua? Yeah, he's-- he's being released.
Cooper: Oh, you're a lucky young man.
Come on.
I don't want to go.
Now come on, guys.
Let go of him.
He's not going! No! Will you let go of him? He's not going anywhere.
Let go.
Stop mucking around.
Fuck off! Do the link.
Do the Takalua link.
Do the link.
Hold on.
They won't be able to break it.
Stop being so silly.
I don't wanna go.
Don't you fucking touch him! Jonah: Hold on tight.
Let go! Moses! Moses: No, I don't want to go.
I don't want him to go, Miss! No no.
Jonah: Fuck off me! Fuck off! Get in there.
Moses! Miss! Miss, I want him to stay here! ( keys jangle, lock clicks ) Miss.
Miss, I want him to stay with me, you fat bitch.
Fuckin'-- ( men singing in foreign language ) Is there anything you want to talk about? Not with you.
You're a fat bitch.
I will be a bitch if you speak to me like that.
Shut up, ranga.
Look, behave yourself and we'll get along fine, all right? Get along with my dick.
Jarrod: Shut up, Fob! Go to sleep! Fuck up, Abo! All right, someone's getting a flogging tomorrow! Yeah, you by me.
Quiet! Don't go there.
You don't go there.
( sighs ) I was listening to you and your brother singing before.
You've got really good voices.
Shouldn't have been listening to us, Miss.
Well-- It's private singing.
I'm very sorry, but I happened to overhear it.
You sing in church? My brother's good.
I'm not that good.
I think you're pretty good too.
Nah, my brother's the best.
I'm gonna go to America to get a record deal for him.
He's gonna make lots of money.
I'm different.
I'm better at rapping and dancing and telling jokes.
What's your name, Miss? Officer Cooper.
No, your first name.
Therese.
Therese, good name.
My mom's name was Theresa.
That's your name with a "ah.
" Mmm.
She died but-- Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
No, it was ages ago.
I was six, so it doesn't matter.
Do you like your job? Yes, I do.
Do you want me to tell you a joke? ( chuckles ) Well, I'm not normally one for comedy, so it'd better be good.
Ah, you should-- Miss, my jokes are good.
I just make them up.
Why did the boy-- why did the boy eat the poo? 'Cause he thought it was a chocolate bar.
Miss? That's not even funny.
It is, Miss.
Jarrod: Shut up, mate.
It's the middle of the night.
Go to bed.
Oi, be quiet.
Shut the fuck up, Abo.
Hey.
We better be quiet, mate, all right? Miss, one more joke.
What did the prison cell say to the door? Marry my dick.
( chuckles ) Don't give up your day job, mate.
Yeah well, look, I'll show you around tomorrow, okay? And we'll get you all settled in.
Don't even bother, Miss! I'm only staying here one night.
I'm probably going home tomorrow.
Cooper: Yeah, that's what they all say, Jonah.
Night, mate.
Good night.
Sorry for calling you a fat bitch.
And a ranga.
Juvi-liscious! Yeah, I love juvie.
It's mean as.
Why don't all you chaboriginies chiss off? ( laughs ) Yeah, Jonah's settled in extremely well.
A little bit too well, actually.
Miss, could you shampoo my balls for me? Oh, I wouldn't exactly say that I've missed him.
I've certainly noticed he's not there.
Jonah wants to ask you a question.
Boys, your dad's are here.
Cooper: Jonah is loving having his dad Rocky here.
Happy Father's Day.
Happy Dickhead Day.
Look, I've got a surprise for you.
What the fuck am I doing here? What the fuck, Sir? I didn't do anything! I thought I'd come and see if you'd learned you fucking lesson, ay? Hey, what's that for? "Feel Da Beat," next week with my boys.
You ain't getting out, bruz.
You're in here for a while.
( clamoring ) Get off me! Get off of me! ( theme music playing )
Eat the dog shit.
( screaming ) You fucking idiot! Fuck! Jonah: I got grounded for being a bully at school Rocky: Hey, listen, get ready to go to work with me or otherwise your ass is gonna get red-hot when I smacked it.
but me and the boys went bowling anyway.
Come over here, you little fuckwit! You're dead, motherfucker! Would I be able to papier-mâché you? Why the fuck would you want to do that? This hot girl Melody helped me with my art assignment Stop trying to touch my boobs, you sicko! I'm not! Oi, fellas! Let's go, boys.
and we tried to hide from Kool Kris to get out of counseling.
Sister, I feel sick.
You are a nun, you look quite good In your hood.
He made us write an anti-bullying song for "Feel Da Beat" talent competition So don't be a bully, "moolly, moolly.
" and if you win the national final, you go to America.
Oh fuck.
Oh, that's sick.
That's gun as.
Traditional Tongan machete, brother.
Sharpest shit out, ay.
And George from the Soldierz gave Moses a traditional machete because we were so brave.
All right, get up, get up.
Go go go.

It's beating so fast.
( theme music playing ) ( clicking, thuds ) ( monkey chatters ) It's a good day Everything over here, is okay Okay It's a good day, the sun is shining my way My way It's a good day, it's gonna be better than Sunday.
We'll see how we go from there, shall we? Okay, great.
If you want to take your seat, the boys are coming in now.
Ahem.
Boys, what's up, dox? Sir, what are we doing? Why have you got the desks like this? What's up, G? Joseph: Boys, like I told you before, Jonah, we've got a couple of special visitors with us today.
Israel: Fuck off.
Who are they? It's the Catholic Education people.
We have to be good-- Jonah: Hey, Miss, hi, Sir.
Welcome to Spaz House.
Have a seat.
Settle in.
Jonah, just take your seat and look after yourself please, son.
I'm just being welcoming, Sir.
All right then.
Very very good, but sit down.
Joseph: I've been under review at Lazarus House now for-- oh, a few months.
The principal here is a just a fucking major pain in the ass.
He's dobbed me in to the Catholic Education Office, 'cause he doesn't believe what we do here is any good.
Sitting up and listening up.
Joseph's voice: So they're out here sticky-beaking around, checking up on me, make sure I tick all the boxes.
Joseph: Thank you.
Joseph's voice: It's just a fucking pain in the dick.
What we've been doing in this class, as you know, uh, in the last couple of months is we've been talking about mechanics, yes, but we've also been talking about where that can take you.
Sir, what are you talking about? Yeah? Jonah, while I'm talking, thanks, you guys are listening, all right? Could we just do practical? This is shit.
( snickers ) Jonah, did I hear a swear word there? Do you want to go and stand in the naughty corner? What's the naughty corner? What the hell? What the hell is-- You just made that up because they're here.
Joseph: No, no I didn't.
Yeah, you did.
Joseph's voice: Well, I had a word to the kids about the observation day and told them, you know, just to keep it in check.
You know, not to swear and fuck around and just to play along with it for my sake.
So hand one of those back.
Thanks.
We don't even do worksheets.
Righto.
This is gay.
Just wait.
Sir, I need one.
Right, there you go.
It's the first time we got this.
Just a bit of patience.
There's two there, boys.
I'm not doing this.
No way.
Righto, move that out of the hallway there, Jonah.
I'm going to trip over it.
Right, what we might do is-- Fuck off, Sir.
Step over it.
Um we're going to brainstorm about ideas of careers in mechanics.
Okay, so we won't look at the worksheets just for a sec.
Anyone know of any careers in-- I've already started looking at them.
Joseph: Excuse me, Jonah, I'm talking, all right? Shut up, Jonah.
Does anyone know any careers in mechanics? Sir.
Sir, Sir, Sir.
Sir, Sir.
My dad.
My dad's a space mechanic.
( boys laughing ) He works on space stations.
What are you lying for? You are so full of shit, siana.
Fuck up.
It's true.
Righto, righto, that's enough language.
Jonah: It's fucking true.
My dad does! Language please! He's got two jobs.
He's a removalist and a space mechanic.
Righto.
That's enough.
You don't even know.
You don't even know, ask him.
Enough.
Jonah.
Enough, thank you.
Your dad's too fat to work in-- But they're lying.
Enough! Right, any ideas? Come on, just yell 'em out I'm telling the truth.
and I'll wack them up here on the whiteboard.
Jonah: Sir, this sucks.
Come on, think about it.
Anyone? Israel: Mechanic, mechanic.
Could we just play with the motors, Sir? This is boring.
Mechanic! All right, okay, what I want you to do is just-- then-- now-- have a look at these sheets ( Jonah sighs loudly ) and have a read of it, quietly.
Jonah: I can't read.
And-- Sir, I'm not doing this.
Because I'm going to be asking you questions on this in just a second, okay? Yeah? Ask away, because-- Ah, fuck, Sir.
( whispering ) Listen, dickhead, if I hear another fucking swear word come out of your mouth I'm going to hit you so fucking hard you won't be able to shit for a month.
Do you hear me? Yes.
Now just fucking behave.
I'm behaving.
Always behaving.
Joseph: Okay, everybody.
Hands up those who have finished reading.
Boy: Yep.
Yeah? Good.
Manu, write "fuck.
" We'll talk about what's on the sheet Huh? You write it.
Write "fuck.
" Big sign.
Write fuck.
And, Uh then we'll discuss and come up with some nice ideas.
Anyone? ( boys whispering ) Joseph: Okay.
Sir.
Yeah.
Yep, go ahead.
Sir! Yep? I didn't say it out loud, Sir.
I'm not allowed to.
Just put that down, Jonah, will you, and get rid of it? ( boys laughing ) Put it down and get rid of it.
Sir, this is what you are today.
Listen to me.
Come here.
Come up here.
Ah, fuck Sir, don't rip my arm off.
Oh, fuck 'em.
Get up here.
Fuck up.
Don't pull on my arm.
Just stand there.
Don't you fucking move.
I'm not moving.
Shut the fuck up.
Right, clearly Jonah can't be trusted to join in, so he's going to miss out, all right? Now anyone with ideas about careers in mechanics? Come on, let's hear them.
Put your hand up.
Yep, go on.
What-- ( gasps ) ( boys laugh ) You fuckin' prick! Fuck off, Sir! Don't push me.
Oh, fuck! I'll fall over.
Get back to your chair! You nearly knocked the desk over.
Boy: Oh, Sir! Get back to your You did it, Sir.
You did it.
fucking chair.
Manu: Look what you did, Sir.
Jonah: You pushed me.
It's your fault, dickhead.
Jonah, boys, come over.
Jonah: What does gayface want now? Manu: He's going to butt-fuck us.
What? Kool Kris: Hey, I just got an email from "Feel Da Beat.
" They've received our entry and they're reviewing it for possible inclusion in the area heats.
Is that it? So we're not in it? Well, not yet.
Why are you so excited, Krissy? Calm down.
Yeah, I thought a teacher had died or some shit.
Later.
Tell us when you have some actual news, Krissy boy.
Later.
Hey, I've got a good feeling about this.
I'm praying for it, guys.
Don't be a bully, "moolly, moolly.
" Shut up, Krissy boy.
You sound gay.
Sir, you're embarrassing us.
Everyone's looking.
And stop trying to have a relationship with us, Sir.
We're not homos.
Jonah: Dox, can I put this in your locker? ( horn beeping ) Mine? Yeah.
Yeah.
All right.
2, 5, 7 now! Ah, sucked in, I know your code.
Break into your locker.
Moses: Jonah, Jonah, Jonah.
Show us, show us.
Get it out.
Oh, is it-- Don't let anyone see.
Is it the thing? Good, dox.
Ready? Oh, you were telling the truth.
It's good, eh? This is mean as.
Don't touch the edge.
It's gonna be sharp.
Dox, this is sick as.
Is it? This is legit.
This can kill someone? Yeah, he told us it did.
It did.
It's killed someone.
Wait, look.
This is mean as, look.
Yeah, George told us.
It killed someone.
Hide it, hide it.
Quick, I've got to wrap it up.
Put it away, boys.
Hurry up, someone's looking.
Careful, put it in.
Oh, bro, that's mean as.
We should all get one.
See, put it up so it doesn't slip out.
Yeah, we should all get one.
Jonah.
You're coming with us.
Uh, no I'm not.
Dad said you have to.
Annie's got her mom's car and she's driving us home.
I'm not getting in a car with him.
I'm not getting in the car, mate.
So chill out.
What are you hanging out with my fat sister for? Are you desperate? Seriously, dude.
Have some respect for your sister.
Have some respect for my dick.
( laughing ) I'm not engaging in this Year 9 shit.
Jonah, Dad said you have to.
We've got church early in the morning and he doesn't want you fucking around on the street.
Well, I've got plans.
Well, you have to.
Dad said so.
I'm not.
I'll be at church later.
Don't worry.
What's in the bag there, buddy? You're squeezing it pretty tight.
Don't talk to my brother.
Stop trying to pick him up.
He's not gay.
It was a simple question, man.
I'm just wondering why he's squeezing his bag like he needs to go to the toilet and the bag's his dick.
Stop talking about my brother's dick.
Graydon: Shut up, spaz boy.
Fucking homo.
Mary: Ignore them both.
They've been acting like weirdoes since this morning.
Let's just go.
See you, gaylord.
Mary: By the way, I'm telling Dad that you didn't listen to what I say, so enjoy your hiding tonight.
Enjoy getting fat, fatty.
( laughing ) Jonah: Okay, boys, are you ready to do something brave? Yeah, I am.
Yeah.
Ready to do this? Yep.
Let's go, boys.
All: Fobba-liscious.
( steel drums playing ) ( insects chirping ) ( Jerome crying ) ( door clangs ) Jonah: Don't cry, siana.
It's gonna be okay.
It's all right, mate.
It's all right.
We'll get home soon.
Okay, all jewelry off.
Into the trays-- piercings, all of it.
What's gonna happen? Bro, I think our mom and dad's going to pick us up, I reckon.
Israel: Your dad's gonna get mad, siana.
Jerome: Why did we even do it? We're going to be okay, boys.
We'll be okay.
We'll go home soon and we'll laugh about it.
Yeah, man, we'll laugh.
( Moses crying ) I really wanna go home now.
Hey.
Siana, why you crying? Gee, don't cry, man.
We're Fobba-liscious.
We don't cry.
Fuck you, man.
You look like homos when you cry.
Don't call me a fucking homo.
Don't cry then.
I can cry if I want to.
Israel: Of course, dox.
No, you're too old to cry, dude.
Your dick's too old to cry.
Shut up.
Kool Kris: The police called the school and I came here straightaway.
They told me that the boys would be detained overnight.
The boys decided that it would be a good idea to hold up the Bowling Center, so they've gone over with a knife and yeah, it looks pretty serious.
So apparently Moses went in and held the knife first and demanded the staff hand over some sort of ornamental bowling ball.
And then Jonah went in and made some threats with the knife, but luckily security were able to control the situation fairly quickly.
But it's armed hold up, so, you know-- they were all in on it.
I feel really bad for them.
I feel really sorry for them.
They must be absolutely terrified in there, you know? So yeah, I'd hate to imagine how hard it must be right now.
( shower running ) Jonah: Boys, who need the shampoo? Boys: Me.
Yeah, siana.
Me me me! Who needs shampoo? Hey, siana look.
Hey, siana, look, mohawk.
Like my hair? I can't do that.
Officer: Pass that shampoo on, please.
Siana, chuck us the shampoo.
Here here.
I need more shampoo.
I've given it to you, ay.
Hey, Miss, have you got hair straighteners in prison? Yeah, Miss.
'Cause these boys need to straighten their hair otherwise it's gonna look shit.
I need to straighten-- No hair straighteners.
Jonah: Manu? What? Officer: Knock it off, I said.
( laughing ) You missed.
Shame.
Officer: Oi! Yeah! Hey, Miss, can you stop looking at me? I feel weird with you looking at me.
Guys, can you stop talking? You are in jail.
This is not a joke.
I'm just saying, Miss, I've got my dick out and you're looking at me.
It makes me feel weird.
Siana, shut up.
You're gonna get us in trouble, bro.
Tell her to stop looking at me.
It's weird.
Yeah, I know.
Hard, ay.
Moses, talk for once.
What are you doing? Man, he's probably jerking off, ay.
( boys laugh, jeer ) Yay, Moses.
Moses! Jerk it! Leave him alone, boys.
Miss, you definitely have to go now.
My brother's jerking off.
Look, shut your mouths, do as your told.
This is your last warning, all right? ( boys chatter ) You've got the use of the facilities for the next couple of hours before bed.
No running, no swearing, no harming others.
This is gay, boys.
Oh shit.
Sit down, sit there.
Fellas.
Hey.
I know you, ay? You know someone I know.
Do you know Kylie? Uh, no.
Yeah, I'm sure you know her, mate.
She said she knows you.
No, I don't know her.
Yeah, where are you from? Summer Heights.
Yeah, that's where Kylie's from.
I know her too.
She was in not long ago having a visit with one of the brother boys.
You know her, ay? Uh, no, I've never heard of her.
Nah, I'm pretty sure you know her.
She said she knows you.
Do you boys know her? I'm not talking to them.
I'm talking to you.
What? You know her, ay? Oh, yeah, I do.
I know Kylie.
( inmates laugh ) Wrong answer.
You're a pussy, bruz.
Fucking pussy.
All you boys are pussies.
I can tell.
Fobs are always pussies.
Fuck up, Jarrod.
All Abo's are dumb fucks, you know that? Inmates: Ooooh.
You want to get cut, you racist dog? Come here, you racist fuck.
( bangs ) Hey! If you can't speak nicely to the new inmates, just shut your mouth.
( door creaks ) Man: Jonah and Moses Takalua.
Come with me, boys.
You've got people to see.
Officer: I'll take this one, thanks.
Later, siana.
Take care, siana.
Fobba-liscious.
Fobba-liscious.
Kool Kris: Hey, Jonah.
Sir.
How are you? Good.
Aunty.
Moses.
Good to see you.
Um, take a seat please.
Yeah.
Thank you.
How are you, guys? Jonah: Good.
Moses: Good.
You guys all right? Yeah.
We got new track suits.
Kool Kris: Yeah, they look great.
Nah, these are horry as, Sir.
They're shit.
Look at my shoes.
Look, Velcros.
Mmm, nice.
Gay as.
That's okay.
Nah.
They're gay, Sir.
Well, so I spoke to the legal aid lawyer and he reckons that we can have the parole hearing in about six weeks.
But because of your previous convictions, Jonah, you might be in here for a while.
Do you understand what I'm saying? Yes Sir.
Okay.
Now, Moses, you've got a criminal record too, but because of your age and your learning difficulties, the lawyer said that we can try and get you out sooner.
All right? Yes Sir.
But, Jonah, you might be in here for a while.
Aunty, don't cry! I don't even care about being in here.
It doesn't matter.
Your dad is very very angry.
He said to throw the key away.
Well, he's a homo.
Kool Kris: Come on, Jonah.
Your aunty's upset, all right? Let's try and lay off those kind of comments.
He is one though.
I'd shut up if I were you.
Who asked you, fatty? What are you doing here anyway? I was forced to come here and see your face.
Well, go home.
Get the train home.
I'm here to support Aunty.
Look anyway, your dad said he really wanted to be here, but because of work and it's a long drive, he decided not to come.
Okay? But he does care about what's going on.
Whatever.
Mary: Don't say whatever.
Leave him alone.
Say sorry for bringing shame to the family.
Say sorry for bringing shame to my dick.
( boys laugh ) Jonah, none of us are finding this funny, okay? It is funny, Sir.
Get a sense of humor.
Okay, can you tell me more about what happened? Why did you want the bowling ball? 'Cause it's worth heaps.
If you melt it down it's worth $10,000.
And I was going to use the money to take Moses to Los Angeles for his record deal.
If it's worth that much, why is it in a bowling alley? Jonah: Shut up, fatty.
You don't even know.
Shouldn't it be in, like, a museum or some shit? You don't know.
Hey, kids, please be nice to each other.
Tell fatty to shut up then.
Mary: Shut up.
You don't even know anything.
You don't even go bowling.
Okay, so who gave you the knife? Jonah: George.
From the Soldierz.
George Kakalukai.
Kool Kris: Yeah, right.
You know those guys are trouble, right? You don't even know anything, Sir.
You don't know anything about being brave, because you're too gay.
Those guys have done time.
You realize that, right? So? They drive around in probably stolen cars looking to recruit good boys like you.
You want to try and stay away from them, trust me.
You don't want to get involved.
Sir, if they weren't brave, then why do they have their tattoos then? They've got full tattoos on their arm and when I'm older and I get my full tattoo in Tonga, then I'm gonna be as tough and brave as them.
You are so embarrassing right now.
Time's up.
Wrap it up please.
Okay.
Well, we can talk about that-- more about that later.
Now please.
Yeah sure.
But I do have some good news.
What? I had a call from "Feel Da Beat" and you guys have been selected to perform in the area heats.
Oh yeah! Kool Kris: Six weeks-- Guys.
We'll perform in front of a real audience? Yep.
Oh yes, Sir.
We got to get you guys out.
To win it! But me and the boys can practice in here, in jail.
We can practice.
Well, the thing is-- the thing is they haven't got as many convictions as you, so they're being released tonight.
Jonah: So they're going and I'm staying? It will just be you and Moses.
Boys, boys! Guess what? I just found out from Sir.
I've got to stay six weeks, but we got in "Feel Da Beat.
" We're going to perform in front of an audience.
Boys, practice.
Make sure you practice.
Come on.
Israel: You too, Moses.
Fuck off.
I'm saying goodbye to them.
Look after your brother, bro.
Fobba-liscious, boys.
Fobba-liscious.
Love you, siana! ( chattering ) Boy: Hey, look who's here, look who's here.
Who are these fuckers? Jarrod: That's pussy one and his little brother pussy two.
From Summer Heights.
They know Kylie.
Is that a Tongan tattoo? Yeah, siana.
Wanna have a look? Fuck you.
I'm not your siana.
I don't give a fuck about your tattoo.
Guard: Just keep walking.
Keep walking, you dumb fuck.
Oi, you monkey dog.
Keep walking.
Officer: Jonah Takalua, 202.
Moses Takalua, 203.
You're lucky that we had two next to each other.
Lights out in five.
No talking after lights out.
Jarrod: Hey, Miss Cooper.
All right, I do not need any crap from you tonight, I can assure you.
Nah, I'm hungry.
Officer Leonard usually lets me and the boys have some leftovers.
Hey, Moses.
Moses, come in here.
Cooper: Well, I'm not Officer Leonard.
The dinner looked like shit.
Now I'm hungry.
Cooper: I can't force you to eat it.
That's your problem.
Jarrod: I wanna eat now but-- Cooper: Well, enjoy that thought because you're not going to.
She won't even care.
We save space anyway.
Jarrod: You suck, Miss.
Cooper: Right, lights out.
Jarrod: Nah, it's too early.
You said five minutes.
( groans ) I'm in charge, what I say goes.
And I said I wanted no cheek from you.
Lights out.
It's not cheek.
I'm just standing up for my prison rights, Miss.
( Jonah/Moses singing softly ) I feel sad, I feel pain When you call me that name I'm a person just like you Boy: Shh, shut up.
Don't be a bully, I feel sad, I feel pain When you call me that name I'm a person just like you Don't be a bully Hey, bullies, listen up-- Hey, what's going on here? We're not sharing cells.
Out.
Miss, we do this at home.
It saves space.
That means you get a free cell next door.
It doesn't work that way.
Come on.
Move.
Moses Takalua? Yeah, he's-- he's being released.
Cooper: Oh, you're a lucky young man.
Come on.
I don't want to go.
Now come on, guys.
Let go of him.
He's not going! No! Will you let go of him? He's not going anywhere.
Let go.
Stop mucking around.
Fuck off! Do the link.
Do the Takalua link.
Do the link.
Hold on.
They won't be able to break it.
Stop being so silly.
I don't wanna go.
Don't you fucking touch him! Jonah: Hold on tight.
Let go! Moses! Moses: No, I don't want to go.
I don't want him to go, Miss! No no.
Jonah: Fuck off me! Fuck off! Get in there.
Moses! Miss! Miss, I want him to stay here! ( keys jangle, lock clicks ) Miss.
Miss, I want him to stay with me, you fat bitch.
Fuckin'-- ( men singing in foreign language ) Is there anything you want to talk about? Not with you.
You're a fat bitch.
I will be a bitch if you speak to me like that.
Shut up, ranga.
Look, behave yourself and we'll get along fine, all right? Get along with my dick.
Jarrod: Shut up, Fob! Go to sleep! Fuck up, Abo! All right, someone's getting a flogging tomorrow! Yeah, you by me.
Quiet! Don't go there.
You don't go there.
( sighs ) I was listening to you and your brother singing before.
You've got really good voices.
Shouldn't have been listening to us, Miss.
Well-- It's private singing.
I'm very sorry, but I happened to overhear it.
You sing in church? My brother's good.
I'm not that good.
I think you're pretty good too.
Nah, my brother's the best.
I'm gonna go to America to get a record deal for him.
He's gonna make lots of money.
I'm different.
I'm better at rapping and dancing and telling jokes.
What's your name, Miss? Officer Cooper.
No, your first name.
Therese.
Therese, good name.
My mom's name was Theresa.
That's your name with a "ah.
" Mmm.
She died but-- Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
No, it was ages ago.
I was six, so it doesn't matter.
Do you like your job? Yes, I do.
Do you want me to tell you a joke? ( chuckles ) Well, I'm not normally one for comedy, so it'd better be good.
Ah, you should-- Miss, my jokes are good.
I just make them up.
Why did the boy-- why did the boy eat the poo? 'Cause he thought it was a chocolate bar.
Miss? That's not even funny.
It is, Miss.
Jarrod: Shut up, mate.
It's the middle of the night.
Go to bed.
Oi, be quiet.
Shut the fuck up, Abo.
Hey.
We better be quiet, mate, all right? Miss, one more joke.
What did the prison cell say to the door? Marry my dick.
( chuckles ) Don't give up your day job, mate.
Yeah well, look, I'll show you around tomorrow, okay? And we'll get you all settled in.
Don't even bother, Miss! I'm only staying here one night.
I'm probably going home tomorrow.
Cooper: Yeah, that's what they all say, Jonah.
Night, mate.
Good night.
Sorry for calling you a fat bitch.
And a ranga.
Juvi-liscious! Yeah, I love juvie.
It's mean as.
Why don't all you chaboriginies chiss off? ( laughs ) Yeah, Jonah's settled in extremely well.
A little bit too well, actually.
Miss, could you shampoo my balls for me? Oh, I wouldn't exactly say that I've missed him.
I've certainly noticed he's not there.
Jonah wants to ask you a question.
Boys, your dad's are here.
Cooper: Jonah is loving having his dad Rocky here.
Happy Father's Day.
Happy Dickhead Day.
Look, I've got a surprise for you.
What the fuck am I doing here? What the fuck, Sir? I didn't do anything! I thought I'd come and see if you'd learned you fucking lesson, ay? Hey, what's that for? "Feel Da Beat," next week with my boys.
You ain't getting out, bruz.
You're in here for a while.
( clamoring ) Get off me! Get off of me! ( theme music playing )
