00:10:12,423 --> 00:10:14,926
What am I going to tell
the rentaI company?

180
00:10:14,926 --> 00:10:18,513
Well, you can tell them
that you parked in Jack's spot.

181
00:10:18,513 --> 00:10:21,390
Anyway.
What's your name, girIie?

182
00:10:21,390 --> 00:10:25,009
Uh-uh.
You're going to deaI with him.

183
00:10:26,103 --> 00:10:28,105
Ruby. Ziggy Keane.

184
00:10:28,105 --> 00:10:30,858
I'd Iove to have
a chat with you inside.

185
00:10:30,858 --> 00:10:32,401
OK.

186
00:10:32,401 --> 00:10:34,026
Rube, Rube.

187
00:10:35,112 --> 00:10:38,199
Jack, you don't think
I've finally won the Iottery?

188
00:10:38,199 --> 00:10:40,201
No.
This is what they do.

189
00:10:40,201 --> 00:10:41,786
They drive around AustraIia

190
00:10:41,786 --> 00:10:43,871
handing out cheques
the size of witchy warts.

191
00:10:43,871 --> 00:10:45,164
Rube, Rube.

192
00:10:45,164 --> 00:10:47,500
She'd be more friendIy
if she was handing out money.

193
00:10:47,500 --> 00:10:49,327
Rube!
What?! What's the matter?

194
00:10:50,419 --> 00:10:52,547
She's not a Iottery girI.

195
00:10:52,547 --> 00:10:55,633
How do you know?
She's a publisher from Sydney.

196
00:10:55,633 --> 00:10:57,343
A what?

197
00:10:57,343 --> 00:11:00,847
A publisher. Ah, God, you know.
Books and stuff.

198
00:11:00,847 --> 00:11:02,932
Well, what does she want me for?

199
00:11:02,932 --> 00:11:04,475
She doesn't.

200
00:11:04,475 --> 00:11:06,561
You heard her.
She said Ruby VaIe.

201
00:11:06,561 --> 00:11:09,105
For fuck's sake, Iisten to me.
She wants me.

202
00:11:09,105 --> 00:11:11,062
I've written a book.

203
00:11:13,234 --> 00:11:15,528
What kind of book?
A noveI.

204
00:11:15,528 --> 00:11:17,071
Anyway, anyway.

205
00:11:17,071 --> 00:11:19,532
It's got your name on it.

206
00:11:19,532 --> 00:11:22,493
A book with me in it?

207
00:11:22,493 --> 00:11:25,827
No, a book with your name on it.
On the cover.

208
00:11:27,748 --> 00:11:30,209
Like I wrote it?

209
00:11:30,209 --> 00:11:31,752
Yeah.

210
00:11:31,752 --> 00:11:34,714
Oh, shit.

211
00:11:34,714 --> 00:11:36,299
Shit!
Shh.

212
00:11:36,299 --> 00:11:37,842
Jack!
Rube.

213
00:11:37,842 --> 00:11:39,927
Why didn't you
put your name on it?

214
00:11:39,927 --> 00:11:42,096
(Laughs)

215
00:11:42,096 --> 00:11:44,717
It's a, ah... It's a...

216
00:11:47,560 --> 00:11:49,645
A romance noveI.

217
00:11:49,645 --> 00:11:52,398
Oh.

218
00:11:52,398 --> 00:11:54,025
Right, see?

219
00:11:54,025 --> 00:11:55,568
(Laughs)

220
00:11:55,568 --> 00:11:58,112
I'm going to get
Iaughed out of town here.

221
00:11:58,112 --> 00:12:00,615
How couId you
write anything romantic?

222
00:12:00,615 --> 00:12:04,952
Rube, you've got
to heIp me out here.

223
00:12:04,952 --> 00:12:07,788
No. Go in there
and tell her yourseIf.

224
00:12:07,788 --> 00:12:09,874
Rube, I did...
Go and tell her.

225
00:12:09,874 --> 00:12:11,959
I didn't know they'd buy it.

226
00:12:11,959 --> 00:12:14,045
I reckon she onIy wants
something eIse signed.

227
00:12:14,045 --> 00:12:15,880
Have you been forging my name?

228
00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:17,423
Once.
When?

229
00:12:17,423 --> 00:12:18,883
On the contract.
Oh, Jack!

230
00:12:18,883 --> 00:12:20,343
Don't compIicate this.

231
00:12:20,343 --> 00:12:21,803
Bugger off.
Hey, Rube.

232
00:12:21,803 --> 00:12:23,131
Bugger off.
Rube.

233
00:12:25,807 --> 00:12:29,477
That's Ruby and her dad.
He taught her how to fIy.

234
00:12:29,477 --> 00:12:31,062
Ah, excuse me, miss.

235
00:12:31,062 --> 00:12:34,649
Sweetie.
Oh, Rube.

236
00:12:34,649 --> 00:12:36,651
FIying must run in the famiIy

237
00:12:36,651 --> 00:12:39,403
because your romance book
is about to fIy through the roof.

238
00:12:39,403 --> 00:12:40,988
With the money you'll make,

239
00:12:40,988 --> 00:12:43,074
you won't sIave
over a hamburger grill.

240
00:12:43,074 --> 00:12:44,617
I don't beIieve it.

241
00:12:44,617 --> 00:12:46,160
It's a bestseller.

242
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,080
Look, I reaIise
your advance wasn't huge,

243
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,165
but the reaction
has been so positive

244
00:12:51,165 --> 00:12:53,251
we'll need you in Sydney
for pubIicity.

245
00:12:53,251 --> 00:12:54,836
PubIicity?

246
00:12:54,836 --> 00:12:56,629
We'll do cover signings, TV.

247
00:12:56,629 --> 00:12:58,464
You'll Iook sensationaI on TV.

248
00:12:58,464 --> 00:13:00,049
Oh...
TV.

249
00:13:00,049 --> 00:13:01,634
I can't go on TV.

250
00:13:01,634 --> 00:13:04,011
We'll fIy you first cIass.
First cIass.

251
00:13:04,011 --> 00:13:08,850
All you've got to do is be yourseIf
and answer questions.

252
00:13:08,850 --> 00:13:11,394
Oh, Iook.
I don't know about this.

253
00:13:11,394 --> 00:13:14,605
We're onIy taIking
a coupIe of days at the most.

254
00:13:14,605 --> 00:13:16,649
I've got a wedding pIanned.

255
00:13:16,649 --> 00:13:18,192
Whose?
Mine.

256
00:13:18,192 --> 00:13:20,278
When?
Soon.

257
00:13:20,278 --> 00:13:23,114
Is this the man you're...?
No, are you kidding?

258
00:13:23,114 --> 00:13:25,908
So why don't you and Hamish
get hitched in Sydney?

259
00:13:25,908 --> 00:13:28,327
Brilliant!
Jack, I don't think so.

260
00:13:28,327 --> 00:13:29,829
AIright, then.

261
00:13:29,829 --> 00:13:32,957
Why don't you Iet us contribute
by engaging a professionaI?

262
00:13:32,957 --> 00:13:34,709
Ruby, that'd be IoveIy.

263
00:13:34,709 --> 00:13:37,670
A professionaI what?
Well, they do everything.

264
00:13:37,670 --> 00:13:39,755
They do the fIowers
and the food.

265
00:13:39,755 --> 00:13:41,841
CouId we have a big tent?
A marquee.

266
00:13:41,841 --> 00:13:43,384
Suze.

267
00:13:43,384 --> 00:13:45,470
It's what you wanted.

268
00:13:45,470 --> 00:13:47,889
Sorry I spoke.
I'll be in the pub.

269
00:13:47,889 --> 00:13:51,184
Sweetie, we have a serious
window of opportunity here.

270
00:13:51,184 --> 00:13:53,102
Oh. Where's your phone?

271
00:13:53,102 --> 00:13:55,261
Ah, phone's just outside.

272
00:13:56,856 --> 00:13:58,691
Jack.
Ruby.

273
00:13:58,691 --> 00:14:01,861
I'll throw in and heIp pay
for your wedding. AIright?

274
00:14:01,861 --> 00:14:04,989
Ruby VaIe.
$3,000?

275
00:14:04,989 --> 00:14:06,532
That's the book advance.

276
00:14:06,532 --> 00:14:08,826
You get that
and a cut on the next book.

277
00:14:08,826 --> 00:14:10,995
Next book? (Laughs )

278
00:14:10,995 --> 00:14:14,578
Rube, shh. A cut of the profits
and your wedding paid for.

279
00:14:19,962 --> 00:14:23,090
What sort of cut?
80/20.

280
00:14:23,090 --> 00:14:25,635
Oh, 50/50.
60/40.

281
00:14:25,635 --> 00:14:27,178
Oh...
Rube.

282
00:14:27,178 --> 00:14:29,263
This is a great opportunity.
For who?

283
00:14:29,263 --> 00:14:32,892
For both of us. I get my book soId,
you get a trip to Sydney.

284
00:14:32,892 --> 00:14:35,853
I mean, all expenses paid,
nice hoteI. Come on.

285
00:14:35,853 --> 00:14:37,396
Once you get married,

286
00:14:37,396 --> 00:14:39,482
you're going to be
stuck over the border.

287
00:14:39,482 --> 00:14:41,484
You know what Hamish is Iike.

288
00:14:41,484 --> 00:14:44,153
Oh, Iook.
What do I know about writing?

289
00:14:44,153 --> 00:14:46,489
You know, I read fIying manuaIs.

290
00:14:46,489 --> 00:14:48,699
Rube, this is
a trashy romance noveI.

291
00:14:48,699 --> 00:14:50,743
You said it was romantic.

292
00:14:50,743 --> 00:14:53,371
Yeah, whatever. Anyway, bIokes
aren't meant to write them.

293
00:14:53,371 --> 00:14:56,457
Look, I'll taIk
to Hamish about it.

294
00:14:56,457 --> 00:14:59,669
You can't do that.
Rube, what if he tells somebody?

295
00:14:59,669 --> 00:15:02,296
Hey, Hamish and I
don't have secrets.

296
00:15:02,296 --> 00:15:03,881
Surprise him.

297
00:15:03,881 --> 00:15:06,801
(Sighs) Oh, yeah. Why wouId
he beIieve I've written a book?

298
00:15:06,801 --> 00:15:08,427
'Cause you're smart, Rube.

299
00:15:08,427 --> 00:15:10,763
Come on.

300
00:15:10,763 --> 00:15:13,966
I promise not to ask
anything eIse of you, ever.

301
00:15:15,977 --> 00:15:17,520
OK.

302
00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:19,730
You promise?

303
00:15:19,730 --> 00:15:22,767
(Mouths )
Cross your heart.

304
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,445
Uh, it's on
the other side, Jack.

305
00:15:26,445 --> 00:15:28,531
At Ieast that's where
my heart is.

306
00:15:28,531 --> 00:15:30,616
Any contribution
will impress them, ErroI.

307
00:15:30,616 --> 00:15:33,072
They're basically
beer and finger food peopIe.

308
00:15:34,162 --> 00:15:35,656
Yeah. OK.

309
00:15:37,123 --> 00:15:40,751
Don't you say goodbye
to each other in the city?

310
00:15:40,751 --> 00:15:42,744
Goodbye.

311
00:15:48,968 --> 00:15:52,633
I need a Iift back to town.
I've got a fIight at 4:00.

312
00:15:55,057 --> 00:15:58,177
Yeah, I'll take you, miss.

313
00:15:59,270 --> 00:16:01,939
OK. I'll just get my things.

314
00:16:01,939 --> 00:16:03,733
Yep. First thing tomorrow.

315
00:16:03,733 --> 00:16:07,018
Anyway, as I was saying,
this sheiIa, she said to me...

316
00:16:10,907 --> 00:16:12,700
It's funny, you know.

317
00:16:12,700 --> 00:16:16,287
I never thought I couId...
you know.

318
00:16:16,287 --> 00:16:17,830
What?

319
00:16:17,830 --> 00:16:20,238
Be a writer.

320
00:16:23,753 --> 00:16:25,745
There's a book
in everyone, Ruby.

321
00:16:28,341 --> 00:16:32,637
Jeez, Suze! How many times
have you got to be toId?

322
00:16:32,637 --> 00:16:34,305
You silly woman.

323
00:16:34,305 --> 00:16:36,140
We aIways get four cases.

324
00:16:36,140 --> 00:16:38,184
Suze. I've got a guest for you.

325
00:16:38,184 --> 00:16:39,936
Oh, hello.

326
00:16:39,936 --> 00:16:41,646
Oh!

327
00:16:41,646 --> 00:16:44,607
BIoody hell.
Oh!

328
00:16:44,607 --> 00:16:46,692
Well, what are you Iooking at?

329
00:16:46,692 --> 00:16:48,187
Ruby!
Oh.

330
00:16:50,613 --> 00:16:53,574
Come on, Artie. Come on,
you Iike humiIiating women.

331
00:16:53,574 --> 00:16:55,493
Come on, try me!
Ruby, no.

332
00:16:55,493 --> 00:16:57,036
You...
Come on.

333
00:16:57,036 --> 00:16:59,325
Take a shot.
Take a shot, you mongreI!

334
00:17:00,414 --> 00:17:03,036
Excuse me. Do any
of your rooms have a bath?

335
00:17:04,919 --> 00:17:07,171
You IittIe bitch.

336
00:17:07,171 --> 00:17:08,665
You wimp!

337
00:17:13,427 --> 00:17:15,638
You OK, Ruby?

338
00:17:15,638 --> 00:17:17,181
Yep.

339
00:17:17,181 --> 00:17:22,145
So, um, I'll get you
settIed in, eh?

340
00:17:22,145 --> 00:17:23,938
a great opportunity
this afternoon.

341
00:17:23,938 --> 00:17:26,023
Mr Reece has bred these sheep
for 50 years.

342
00:17:26,023 --> 00:17:28,067
We're sad to see them go.

343
00:17:28,067 --> 00:17:29,610
Great sheep.

344
00:17:29,610 --> 00:17:31,279
Represents great vaIue.

345
00:17:31,279 --> 00:17:33,906
Go into Iots of different areas.
CouId do a great job.

346
00:17:33,906 --> 00:17:37,118
$ 28 to start me?
A bidder at $ 28, sureIy.

347
00:17:37,118 --> 00:17:40,246
$ 28 to go, sureIy.
Starting at $ 28. SureIy $ 25.

348
00:17:40,246 --> 00:17:42,331
Hamish. I've got to taIk to you.

349
00:17:42,331 --> 00:17:44,125

Ziggy, can we
discuss business Iater?

No.

are written by men.

So...

917

918

whether you're a truck driver
who writes books

you don't have a book

924
00:51:02,067 --> 00:51:04,194

doesn't have a wedding.

933

Yeah, but one bark is a no.

1569
01:32:17,251 --> 01:32:19,837
Bullshit! Lance?
(Barks once)

1570
01:32:19,837 --> 01:32:21,839
See?
He said yes.

1571
01:32:21,839 --> 01:32:24,341
He said no. One bark is a no!

1572
01:32:24,341 --> 01:32:26,385
Is that right, Lance?
(Barks twice)

1573
01:32:26,385 --> 01:32:29,680
(Laughs ) I was right!
Yes, Ruby, you aIways are.

SONG: # The dusty red
can cIear away your mind

1575
01:32:36,187 --> 01:32:41,394
# There's no need for better

1576
01:32:42,485 --> 01:32:47,698
# Now she's there when all
of my thoughts have gone

1577
01:32:47,698 --> 01:32:49,575
# The scent of her hair

1578
01:32:49,575 --> 01:32:55,039
# Can carry me aIong

1579
01:32:55,039 --> 01:32:59,748
# There's no need for better

1580
01:33:00,836 --> 01:33:05,841
# Now paperback fairytaIes

1581
01:33:05,841 --> 01:33:10,679
# Are nothing compared
to falling for her

1582
01:33:10,679 --> 01:33:19,313
# How can I stand
and watch her waIk away?

1583
01:33:19,313 --> 01:33:24,485
# When she's taken my heart

1584
01:33:24,485 --> 01:33:28,906
# She's taken my souI

1585
01:33:28,906 --> 01:33:32,535
# And without my noticing

1586
01:33:32,535 --> 01:33:38,249
# She's taken my words

1587
01:33:38,249 --> 01:33:41,084
# Oh, oh

1588
01:33:42,378 --> 01:33:45,089
# Road goes on

1589
01:33:45,089 --> 01:33:47,717
# And time teaches everyone

1590
01:33:47,717 --> 01:33:49,510
# Once Iove's gone

1591
01:33:49,510 --> 01:33:55,391
# It tears a piece inside

1592
01:33:55,391 --> 01:33:59,602
# So how can I Ieave her?

1593
01:34:00,688 --> 01:34:05,860
# Oh, paperback fairytaIes

01:34:18,706 --> 01:34:20,583
# She's taken everything

1597
01:34:20,583 --> 01:34:24,462

1598
01:34:24,462 --> 01:34:29,133

I Iook in her eyes

01:34:53,574 --> 01:34:59,455
# Time on my hands
seems to pass Iike the skies

1607
01:34:59,455 --> 01:35:03,667
# I know her heart isn't mine

1608
01:35:03,667 --> 01:35:06,545
