- So you've got your loop, yeah? - Mm-hmm.
And you go down the rabbit hole and back Hang on a sec.
It's a simple knot.
I've done it 1000 times.
Do you even know what you're talking about, Captain? This is a very delicate process, okay? You can't rush this.
- How about that? - That That is that's perfect.
- You're a show off.
- Your sister's becoming an eco-warrior.
Well, don't mess with her then.
- Found that for you - No! Ah! Yuck! Hey, mate.
Just Cook Avenue, Ashgrove, thanks.
Hey.
Well, I reckon we got the contract, but he's gonna let me know tomorrow.
Yeah.
Oh, it's just the next left.
Yeah.
Hey, have we made a decision about lunch? Cos I'm okay with risking it with the polyethylene trevally.
- I think I'll just have a liquid lunch.
- Really? Ryan? Looks like a fishing boat or something.
Come! Come! (PEOPLE SCREAMING) Thanks, mate.
Keep the change.

The boat is dead.
Boat is dead.
Please.
Come, come, come.
Bag, bag.
These Sydney developers, they fly in, fly out and make all us contractors line up like contestants on X Factor.
You'd think they were building the Taj Mahal, not a couple of duplexes.
Yeah, but they obviously liked you.
Well, I gave them a full blast of the Gallagher charm.
Is that what you call it? Oh, awesome are they teaching Facebook at school now? Ever heard of privacy? Is that the thing you get when you've finished your homework? - All right.
- Right.
I think.
Mm-hmm, five minutes.
Okay, chop chop.
You're on plates, Lockster.
Come on, clear the table.
Take this with you.
Nuh-uh.
Wait.
Can someone get the salad? Hey, Mama, can I go to Jordan's? - Finished your maths? - No.
- Hi, Baba.
- Ahh.
(SPEAKS ARABIC) - (SPEAKS ARABIC) - Thank you.
How was your day? I think I have that, what do they call it? White line fever.
Yeah, you do feel hot.
(SPEAKS ARABIC) Do you have the keys? (SPEAKS ARABIC) Bilal, it's nearly ready.
You can't wait? I found one of them.
One of who? Them.
Water.
Water, water.
Follow me.
This way.
Come.
It's dead.
Right.
Hey.
My friend.
Hey.
We go to Australia.
You you you take us.
- You take us Australia.
- You take us, please.
Please! Pan-pan, pan-pan, pan-pan, all stations, all stations, all stations.
And then the name of the boat three times.
Ah, this is Liberame, Liberame, Liberame, require immediate assistance, over.
Try another channel.
16's for emergencies.
- Why aren't they listening? - Come on, go again.
Pan-pan, pan-pan, pan-pan, this is Liberame, Liberame, Liberame, require immediate assistance.
- Australians - What do we do? Well, we could try and take them on board.
Oh, there's like 40 of them, or more.
Well, we could strip stuff out.
We could make some room.
Or we could tow em.
Yeah, that could burn out the engine.
Do we even have enough food? Water? We could go for help.
We could mark their position, head back into Australian waters until we get contact.
Their their engine is dead.
It's totally cactus.
We're not set up for rescue.
So why don't we go to someone who is? Look, we've got to think about the kids, Ryan.
Whether we take them on board, or whether we tow them, we're putting everyone at risk, even them.
- What's your suggestion then, Damien? - What Helen said.
Or we set off the emergency beacon.
- No.
- No, definitely not.
Well, it is an emergency.
Yeah, and they're half a day out of Kupang.
They get picked up by Indonesian rescue, they're fucked.
They're fucked already.
They just want to go to Australia.
That's what they said.
But we can't put everyone in danger.
You can't know that's what'll happen.
I know that putting 40 people on here would be a big mistake.
What if you just try to fix their engine So you're an expert now, are you, Damien? - I'm trying to come up with a solution.
- That's just avoiding the problem.
- Well, that's being smart.
- Hey! It's your boat, Ryan.
You're the Captain.
So ultimately it's your call.
Do we want to stay and help? Or do we want to go and get help from somewhere else? Um (DISTANT YELLING FROM OTHER BOAT) We'll take a vote.
No, I can do it for sure, but I've got to be in court at ten o'clock.
Yeah, that's Sorry.
No.
Yeah, that's right.
I'll be there soon.
You sort it out and I'll be there soon.
Bye.
It is you.
Ryan.
Well, how are you? You made it.
We made it.
Come in.
I'll make you a coffee.

Sunday.
Hey! - Baba? - Help us! It's four to one.
Four to one what? We're gonna tow them.
Morning.
Hey.
Hi.
Hi.
You're not gonna believe this.
I was taking the bins out this morning, right? And I looked across the road and there's this taxi parked there.
And the driver was Ismail.
Who's Ismail? How can I even look at them? What words could they have for what they did? How could they possibly explain themselves? I need to know.
Knowing won't change what happened.
No.
Hey, come get this stuff.
Look at you.
You're the scoop master.
- Hey, is this okay? - They don't drink, right? - No, but we can have a cheeky one.
- Maddie, can you put some clothes on? - But - It's about respect.
Hey, I don't even know how to cook this.
I didn't ask.
Is it a bit special? Think it's just the way the meat's prepared.
The pool is immaculate, thanks to the Lockster.
Thank you, Locky.
What are we doing this for? Who's coming? They're just some people we met while we were on holiday a while ago.
- Have they got any kids? - Yeah, a bit older than you.
- I'm gonna be so bored! - They've got kids.
Come on, let's wash up before they get here.
- How's the champers going? - The cups are just here.
Here.
Hey! Door's open.
I Just in time.
We're just fuelling up.
Fuelling up.
No, I'll have some water, thanks.

Hi, welcome.
Come in, come in.
It's so exciting.
My wife Zahra, my brother Bilal, and this is Asad, my son.
Hi.
Wow.
Ah, this is, ah, ah, Lachlan.
Our children, Lachlan and Madison.
- Hi.
- Helen.
- Olivia.
- Please come in.
Come in.
Come inside.
Outside Your daughter's not coming? Water? Water? Okay, four waters.
Okay.
Sit out here on the deck.
Let's get some snacks.
It's nearly like I'm just a little bit behind, slightly unorganised but I can it is pretty much done.
Please sit outside.
Did you did they Did you get a drink? Do you want - Red meat for lunch.
- It's good.
So where are you living? - Ah, we have a flat in Stafford.
- Oh, that's really close.
- And you're studying, right? - Nursing.
I want to specialise in intensive care.
Fantastic.
At Griffith University? - Mm.
- That's great.
I did my law degree there.
I'm sorry, it's just This is amazing.
I can't believe I can't believe that you're here.
We went looking, you know.
But there were like four boats that all arrived within a week or so of each other.
- Four? - Mm.
I I tried finding out but they weren't releasing names.
And I didn't even know your last name.
Al-Bayati.
Al-Bayati.
Do you want some of this? I'd like it if you had some more greens please, Lachlan.
Has everyone got enough to eat? More salad? I'm taking I'm taking I'm taking out the old kitchen.
So the ceiling's half gone, and I start hearing this noise, right? It's like It's like a sliding followed by a thumping sound.
- He loves this story.
- Yeah.
- All the time.
- And I look up, I look up and I am staring into the eyes of the biggest python I have ever seen.
- I was halfway home.
- (CRIES) I'm sorry, my wife is not feeling well.
- How can you sit here laughing? - Come, Zahra.
You said you would take us to Australia.
And in the middle of the night, you cut us loose.
How could you? How could you leave us there? Asad! Seven people died! Seven! Zahra You killed my daughter! (CRYING) I shouldn't have agreed.
I shouldn't have made you go.
I thought if I looked into their faces, I could understand.
Ismail I just want to move forward.
So that's it, hmm? A little half-burned Halal meat and everything is okay? We are all friends now? - I have to consider Zahra.
- Mm.
What do you want, Bilal? An eye for an eye? What will that do? I want Yasmeen to be honoured.
I want you to think about Yasmeen.
It's true.
Seven people died, including the daughter.
These are the names.
So what do you want to do? Do we want to report it? No, we didn't before.
We didn't know seven people died before.
I'm sorry, I still don't understand why they're blaming us.
They cut themselves loose when we turned back to Indonesia, yes? Well, you know, that's what we think happened.
They stole the life jackets.
And the dinghy.
They wanted to get to Australia.
Yes, that's what we've been telling ourselves all this time but we really don't know for sure, do we? You think it was one of us? - We're not all here.
- Oh.
Listen, I know Damien left after the whole thing but that doesn't He disappeared off the face of the earth.
No contact with anyone.
I mean, has anyone heard from him? Not even you? See, maybe there's a reason for that.
No, I don't believe that.
I can't believe that you think that, you're even thinking that one of us could do something like that.
They think we did.
Why would they lie about that? You were the one who was on watch that night, weren't you, Helen? Yeah, but I fell asleep.
We all know that.
You were drunk.
Well, I don't deny it.
Think about it.
Why didn't we report the boat to the authorities when it happened? I think it's because we knew what it looked like.
It looked like one of us had cut the rope.
Hello? Ismail, it's Ryan.
What do you want? I want to know if you need help.
Help? Anything you want.
Just ask.
Look, Ismail, I've been lucky.
With the business and everything.
I've done well.
I can't imagine how hard it is to come to a new place and start over again with nothing.
I don't need anything.
Why don't you talk to your wife? See what she thinks.
I'm sure we can work something out.
Ismail, please.
I just want to help.
What are you suggesting? Cameron reckons his dad has a black belt in kung fu.
Cameron's dad, huh? What is he, a big guy? So you think, I mean you think that I need to show him some of my moves? - You don't know kung fu.
- I do know kung fu.
I know the claw.
- Do you really know kung fu? - Yes! Nice.
All right, time to give it some of that old Gallagher magic.
Yes! (KNOCKING AT DOOR) It's official.
You're on the shortlist.
I am? Couple of months from now, you could be on the bench.
Magistrate Korczak presiding.
My God! I've still got a bit of lobbying to do but I think you're a shoo-in.
Graham, I I I can't thank you enough.
Ah, you did it, Helen, not me.
I would never have got this far without you.
You have been the most incredible support to me, for years.
(PHONE RINGING) Ah, excuse me.
Ice cream.
they have everything.
50 grand, Ryan? For fuck's sake! - It's the least we can do.
- You know we can't afford this.
What what does that mean, Bree? I mean, look.
Look! We've got everything.
And not just a house and a business, but everything.
- All this shit! - Yeah, I know! I know, but handing over a lump of cash.
How is that going to make up for it? You know, Ryan, on the boat, when we all voted? I was the one who voted no.
And if I was put in the same position today, I think I would do the same thing, because I was thinking about our family.
Our children.
If helping those people meant putting ourselves at risk, then I just kept thinking of Maddie and Lachlan alone without us, and I am still thinking about them, Ryan.
This? This looks like an admission of guilt.
That's seven people.
Do you want our kids to carry that? (KNOCKING ON DOOR) This is blood money and my husband was wrong to accept it.
Don't ever speak to him again.
Leave us alone.
Bree, you've made your point.
I made a mistake.
I'm sorry, okay? Can we move on? - No, that's not my point.
- Yep.
Yep.
My point is you make our decisions without me.
What is that? Okay, and I've apologised because I knew what you were going to say.
Okay what was I going to say? Can we just let it go? You knew what I was going to say but you did it anyway.
Tell me.
I just feel terrible and I'm trying to do the right thing here.
(PHONE BEEPING) (KNOCKING AT DOOR) Hey.
Hey.
Hi.
London is just a bigger, greyer version of here.
And the real estate game's the same.
There's not enough stock and there's too many buyers.
I mean, the prices are just heading into the stratosphere.
Like, I sold a studio for about 500,000 quid last month, and your pool, your pool, mate, is bigger than that whole apartment.
What are you doing here, Damien? I mean, why now? What, you just you just turn up out of the blue.
I told him.
I just I told him about Yasmeen and the others.
I thought he should know.
And I got in contact with Bree after I settled.
I just I wanted to know that you were all okay.
And how long ago was that? A year ago, maybe more.
If I'd emailed you, would you have replied? Probably not.
- I just thought - Mm-hmm.
once Liv had gotten over it, I mean, your friendship is separate from this.
Except Liv hasn't got over it, so - We should at least talk to them.
- They They don't want anything to do with us, Damien.
They've made that pretty clear.
- Don't you think we should - Ryan's already tried.
Um, Ismail You you just got into his taxi? Yeah.
That's weird, eh? He he's a cab driver, Damien.
It's not that weird.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Maybe you're right.
I want him to go away again.
I don't want him here.
He is.
- He just turned up - Yeah, okay, he can go again.
He can run away like he did before, without even a fucking phone call.
Nothing, for years.
And now he's back, what does he want? I'll talk to him.
Tell him he has to go.
The epicardium is the surface of the heart, and constitutes a very thin layer.
Next is the myocardium, the thickest and most How long have you known about them? How long have you been doing this? Two, three months.
Maybe more.
I'm going to delete all of this now, okay? Please stop.
Whatever it is you are doing, please stop it now.
Look, it's slow right now, but the economy's picking up.
People will start to spend soon.
Hey, um, you haven't come across this guy at all, have ya? I think, yeah.
Yeah, he came to the office.
It was a while back.
But he seemed really interested.
Turned out to be just a tyre kicker.
We'll sell it.
Apparently he came to look at the boat and that was back in September.
To buy it? I don't know.
That's what he said, but I don't think so.
So they've basically been stalking us, Ryan, for months.
We have to tell the others.
You have to speak to Helen.
Now.
Are you okay? Yeah, I'm fine.
No, you're not.
I'm pregnant.
Ismail, he he didn't say anything.
- He didn't tell me.
- He doesn't know.
Zahra, this is good news.
Ismail will be so happy.
I just need some time.
Promise me you won't tell your brother.
- Promise me you won't say - Okay.
I promise.
(SCREAMING, INTENSE NOISE) (THUNDER RUMBLING) I woke up and it was it was like this.
(THUNDER RUMBLING) Life jackets are gone.
They took the dinghy.
(THUNDER RUMBLING) - Ryan Gallagher? - What's this about? Your name has come up in the reporting of a Commonwealth crime.
The AFP is duty bound to test the evidence and see if there are grounds to prosecute.
The penalty is up to ten years.
Everyone will be interviewed.
Has anyone been on board recently, Mr Gallagher? No, just me.
No, no, she's definitely too hot.
Yeah, we should make sure she eats something.
Thank you.
Why did you turn the yacht around and head to Indonesia? There were signs of a storm.
This is a bad idea.
Bad ideas are all we've got now, mate.
Are you threatening my family? No, I'm asking you to rein things in.
It's getting messy, mate.
So now you think things are getting messy? Five life jackets, Mr.
Al-Bayati, and a dinghy big enough to carry you all.
You don't think that's some kind of coincidence? They cut us loose! Well, Damien's refused counsel.
Why would he stop Graham sitting in if he wasn't planning to dump me in it? - (SPEAKS FOREIGN LANGUAGE) - He was there.
It must have been frightening for you, a man suddenly appearing on deck like that.
I've been instructed by my lawyer not to speak with anyone from your family.
Your daughter and my son have been in contact.
They should pay for what they've done to us.
What happened on that boat shifted everything.
Nothing's gone right since then.
