1
00:00:01,640 --> 00:00:07,800
Why are children dancing with a mad
Polish woman in my electoral office?
2
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:10,480
When I agreed to this job, you said
that I could bring Iain to work.
3
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:14,440
Senator Cleaver Greene.
I was your fellow speaker here today.
4
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:16,040
Ah, Li-Ming Wiu, hi.
5
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:19,920
The bodies of two drowned plumbers were
pulled from a sewer today in Canberra.
6
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:25,000
The bodies were identified as brothers
Jake and Gordon Metherall from Queanbeyan.
7
00:00:25,120 --> 00:00:26,280
-The plumbers.
-Mmm.
8
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:27,920
You didn’t. You wouldn’t.
9
00:00:28,240 --> 00:00:29,720
Have you got an appointment
to see me, Joe?
10
00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,880
What if I throw you my numbers?
Make you Prime Minister?
11
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:34,520
You give me that back,
12
00:00:34,600 --> 00:00:38,160
you sign a legal document
relinquishing all future claims to it.
13
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:40,440
-Prime Minister, Cal.
-It’s my painting.
14
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:41,680
Prime Minister.
15
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:45,480
Are you sure you can’t find
another hour or so?
16
00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,480
It is not often I spend time
with someone who shares my passion.
17
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,520
Why are people leaving the room quickly?
18
00:00:52,160 --> 00:00:54,640
Oh, shit. It’s a coup.
19
00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:56,600
-Fuck me sideways.
-It’s a fuckin' coup.
20
00:01:58,280 --> 00:01:59,360
Thank you so much.
21
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,160
Excuse me.
22
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,280
You're looking great.
23
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,320
Why was I not invited?
24
00:02:17,640 --> 00:02:19,080
Because questions would be asked
25
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:22,000
by my parents, and my husband’s parents,
26
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,280
the polit bureau, the Ambassador,
not to mention my husband.
27
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:29,000
Yes, yes, well, let’s not mention him.
28
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:31,960
-Stop it.
29
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,040
He is the Deputy Secretary
for the Embassy here.
30
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:36,160
-Yes.
31
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:37,960
Oh, right. Well, good for him.
32
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,320
His father is about
the third richest man in China.
33
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:41,400
Oh, is he?
34
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,520
And he wants his son
to be President one day.
35
00:02:43,640 --> 00:02:45,400
Does he. And. um,
36
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,440
do you love him?
37
00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:49,880
I like him.
38
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,160
He’s handsome, he’s smart.
39
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,960
With my advice, he could get things done.
40
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,000
See, I don't like him.
41
00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,440
You’ve never met him.
42
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:03,160
No, but I don’t have to meet people
to not like them.
43
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,760
-So, this is the real you.
-I just...
44
00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:09,360
As opposed to the bullshit artist
I had lunch with.
45
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,480
Well, yes, this is, uh, this is it,
46
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:15,800
I'm afraid.
47
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,280
I always prefer the genuine article.
48
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:51,600
What are you doing?
49
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:53,480
Happy to talk about this, guys.
50
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,360
Sources within
Australia’s diplomatic corps
51
00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,560
are describing it as one of the most
52
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,280
embarrassing diplomatic incidents
in decades.
53
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:05,560
The Chinese Premier is not only calling--
54
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,560
Pull up in this vet’s.
55
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,200
Princess is distressed.
56
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:12,600
I need to see if there’s someone
who could have a look at her.
57
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:23,840
Oh, God.
58
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:27,160
Oh, God.
59
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:30,440
Yes, they can see her.
60
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,600
Oh mate, she’s chucked
something up in there.
61
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,560
Oh, mate, she has thrown up something
in there that you don’t wanna know about.
62
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:38,040
Oh, Princess.
63
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:42,800
Where is she?
64
00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:46,520
I don't know.
65
00:04:48,280 --> 00:04:49,360
Where is she?
66
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,360
What... Well... What...
67
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,760
She was right here a second ago.
I'm buggered if I know.
68
00:04:54,840 --> 00:04:56,360
You were right here.
69
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,800
-Well, mate, I don't know. I mean--
-Princess!
70
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:01,160
Kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty.
71
00:05:01,280 --> 00:05:02,440
Kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty,
72
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:04,720
Kitty, kitty, kitty.
73
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:06,840
I don’t-- Kitty!
74
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:09,880
This morning, I had the privilege
75
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,200
to inform His Excellency
the Governor General
76
00:05:13,280 --> 00:05:16,520
that the Federal Liberal Party last night
bestowed upon me
77
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:19,440
the enormous honor of its leadership.
78
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,920
He consequently asked me
to form a government.
79
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:28,240
I would like to thank Gareth Morrow
for his fantastic work as Prime Minister
80
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:31,680
over the past five Newspolls--
Uh, 15 weeks.
81
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,200
But quite frankly,
we weren’t coming up to scratch.
82
00:05:36,280 --> 00:05:39,200
Darling! Come here.
83
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:44,000
More significantly, though,
and on a very sad note,
84
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:48,240
Chief Justice Nelson last night passed
away suddenly from a heart attack.
85
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:52,960
He graced his office
with grace and dignity,
86
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,360
and we send our condolences and love
to His Honor’s family
87
00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:00,120
and of course, there will be
a state funeral. Are there any questions?
88
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,040
Uh, yes.
89
00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,280
I understand the incident at
the Midwinter Ball last night involving Senator Cleaver Greene,
a Chinese bride
90
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,160
and the collapse of a screen has caused
enormous tensions with Beijing.
91
00:06:14,280 --> 00:06:18,160
Mm, not at all, Catherine, no.
I spoke to Premier Tsing this morning,
92
00:06:18,280 --> 00:06:20,320
and we couldn’t be closer.
93
00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,120
Relations simply could not be better.
94
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:28,680
God.
95
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,280
So what made you come home so suddenly?
96
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:36,120
Claudia left me.
97
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,200
-My boss.
98
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,120
Okay. And...
99
00:06:42,840 --> 00:06:44,440
-And she's about--
-Fifty four.
100
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:45,720
Right, 54.
101
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:48,840
Darling, can I ask you, um,
102
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:51,640
a bit of an awkward question?
103
00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:53,640
Yeah.
104
00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,120
This thing that you've clearly got
about older women,
105
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:59,960
and it is a thing because
it’s been going on for a while now.
106
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:03,160
-Mmm-hmm.
-Do you think that, um, subconsciously,
107
00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,640
it’s a way of, um--
108
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,800
Sort of that it’s about you and me?
109
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,240
Are you out of--
110
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:13,720
Are you kidding me?
111
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,600
How many times do I have to tell you, Mum,
this is not Oedipal?
112
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,920
This is just a thing. It’s a normal thing.
113
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,240
Okay. See, I think that
a more normal thing
114
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,600
would be to have lustful thoughts about
girls your own age, for example, you know?
115
00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,560
What is there to understand?
Most people, they have things,
116
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:30,880
and most people don’t know why.
117
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,440
But darling, she’s 54!
I mean, that’s, you know...
118
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,880
Are you saying that a 54 year old woman
can't be beautiful?
119
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,440
No, that’s not what I'm saying.
120
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,280
I gotta tell you, Mum,
it’s just around the corner for you.
121
00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,960
It’s not around the corner,
I'll have you know. It’s a good way off.
122
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,880
And you know, Missy is a beautiful woman
and you have a child together
123
00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,040
and she’s got a good decade on you.
124
00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:48,720
And I mean, that’s substantial.
125
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:50,960
That’s something to be getting on with,
don't you think?
126
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:55,240
Can I help you?
127
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,360
Dallas Jeffrey, Senator Greene.
I'm from Morgan Field estate agents,
128
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,240
who represent this property.
129
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:02,600
This is your Notice to Quit.
130
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:03,680
Quit what?
131
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,520
These premises. Immediately.
132
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,800
Well you can’t do this. I'm a--
133
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:10,400
I'm a Senator.
134
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:11,920
We’re very well aware of that.
135
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:13,200
Well, I have a lease.
136
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:15,080
Many of the terms of which
you have broken.
137
00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,120
Here’s the thing. I'm glad you're here,
138
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,800
because I've been having a lot of issues
with the plumbing in this joint.
139
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:22,720
Things you don’t want to know about
140
00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,680
that I've had to pay for
out of my own pocket,
141
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:26,520
and I need to be compensated for that.
142
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,320
You have constantly been in arrears
with your rental payments.
143
00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,559
Yes. Now see that’s an issue
I'm having with the banking industry,
144
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:34,679
because there’s a conspiracy going on.
145
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:35,880
Senator Greene--
146
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:39,039
You can’t just kick me out of here
without any notice.
147
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,280
I-- I know the law. I make the law.
148
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:44,280
-There is a clause...
-I am the law.
149
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:45,800
...in your rental agreement
150
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,880
which specifically prohibits
subletting your space
151
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,160
and allows for instant termination
of the lease if you do.
152
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,440
-I've never--
-You've an hour to vacate these premises.
153
00:08:54,560 --> 00:08:57,920
These gentlemen will ensure
your rapid departure.
154
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,240
We’ll probably need to fumigate.
155
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:04,360
Is it all done
156
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:05,960
Alright, send the cleaners in now, please.
157
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:10,320
Ah, the new Prime Minister
is so keen for a meeting.
158
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:11,920
Last night’s events...
159
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,600
Oh, great.
That’d be right. Here we go.
160
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:21,520
Yes. Mate, listen, would you mind just
taking them to Wendy’s, please?
161
00:09:21,600 --> 00:09:24,160
I'm assuming this’ll be
my lift for the day.
162
00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,520
Hello Nicole, would you mind
meeting me at the house please,
163
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,720
as soon as possible? Thank you.
164
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:33,640
-Come.
165
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:40,120
I'm a man of my word.
166
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:43,640
Treasurer.
167
00:09:44,560 --> 00:09:45,920
Well,
168
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:48,400
I won’t say thank you,
169
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,240
but I am prepared
to acknowledge the gesture.
170
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:54,320
-Fair enough.
171
00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,240
Ah, Joe, hang on a tick.
Greene’s coming in.
172
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,120
Might be better if we double team him.
173
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:04,400
Brother.
174
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,000
Rightio.
175
00:10:10,560 --> 00:10:12,000
Brother.
176
00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:15,760
Thank you.
177
00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:28,680
I didn’t know you were coming back.
178
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:30,800
It was a spur of the moment decision.
179
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:32,440
Ow!
180
00:10:32,560 --> 00:10:34,440
Spur is not a fucking excuse!
181
00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:36,880
You might want to hide behind
being a child,
182
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,880
but you're not a child anymore.
183
00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:40,400
Okay, one...
184
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:42,840
One was fair, all right?
185
00:10:42,920 --> 00:10:44,840
Do not get me started on fair.
186
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:47,840
You are an adult.
You have responsibilities.
187
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,720
Do you have any idea
how selfish you’ve been?
188
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:55,000
Is there an answer I can give that
won’t result in me getting a slap?
189
00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:00,080
Is Claudia here?
190
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:01,440
Is that why you’ve come back?
191
00:11:01,560 --> 00:11:03,200
Claudia and I have broken up.
192
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,440
God, she’s so grown up.
193
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:12,760
Yeah, that’s what happens, isn’t it?
194
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,080
Hey little darling baby girl.
195
00:11:17,680 --> 00:11:19,040
Oh!
196
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:22,480
Good girl.
197
00:11:23,560 --> 00:11:24,720
There were no deaths.
198
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:27,320
But there was quite a bit
of physical damage, and political.
199
00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:30,040
So it has to be attempted manslaughter,
at least.
200
00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:33,240
What, a screen falling on--
Jesus, you're a shit lawyer, Cal.
201
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,960
There’s no such thing
as attempted manslaughter, mate.
202
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,800
By definition you can’t attempt
the accidental death of somebody.
203
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,640
Terri, I need to give
the Chinese something,
204
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,760
or to be more precise, someone.
205
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:46,960
It was attempted assault.
206
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,920
What, by leaning on a screen,
which nobody saw me do, by the way,
207
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,360
and which resulted in
a couple of people getting bruised.
208
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,640
-You pushed over the screen...
-I leaned.
209
00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:56,560
...with the intention
of causing grievous bodily harm
210
00:11:56,680 --> 00:11:57,880
on a race of people that you hate.
211
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,280
What, the whole race, with one screen?
212
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:02,080
Your father served in Korea, didn’t he?
213
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:03,720
-There you go.
214
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:05,920
What do you mean, "There you go"?
215
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:10,440
Let’s go with the whole
hate/terrorism line.
216
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,640
That way, we can have a trial in camera,
no press, no public.
217
00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:16,400
We can have him
off to an island by Thursday.
218
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:19,720
Terrorism is clean. Uncontroversial.
Chuck in the hate crime...
219
00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,320
You people... You're mental.
220
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,480
You have deliberately destroyed
years of patient diplomacy.
221
00:12:25,560 --> 00:12:28,880
Diplomacy? You’ve been Prime Minister
for about seven seconds, mate.
222
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,440
I mean the South China Sea
is about to erupt!
223
00:12:31,560 --> 00:12:34,800
I mean, you have no idea the shit I had
to eat from the Chinese this morning.
224
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:37,760
You know, if I close my eyes, Cal,
225
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,880
it’s almost as if
you're channeling my sister.
226
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,840
I mean, your voice is
a couple of octaves higher
227
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,040
but it's uncanny.
228
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:49,640
So?
229
00:12:50,560 --> 00:12:52,480
They’re talking terrorism charges.
230
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,320
-Hilarious, yeah.
231
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,800
They’re going to try and ping me
with whatever they can get.
232
00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:58,600
-But it’s pretty funny.
-You're kidding!
233
00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:01,760
I know. I'm looking forward to it
because it’ll be a big day with the press.
234
00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:03,000
-Terrorism.
235
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:06,280
I leant against a screen, or is it leaned?
236
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:10,600
Um, well leaned or leant,
that is the Deputy Secretary
237
00:13:10,680 --> 00:13:13,000
of the Chinese Embassy
waiting outside your office.
238
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,240
What Has he got an appointment?
239
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:17,400
No, but I'm thinking
that he doesn't need one.
240
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:18,720
Well, why do I want to see him?
241
00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:20,800
Because he’s here and he was the groom.
242
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:25,600
Oh my God, he’s the groom. Oh, shitballs.
243
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,600
Oh, wow, he looks fit.
244
00:13:28,680 --> 00:13:30,920
Yeah, pretty-- Pretty fit.
245
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,920
Like I'm talking Jet Li.
246
00:13:34,680 --> 00:13:37,320
-Mmm, Bruce Lee.
-No, I mean Jet Li.
247
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:40,960
Who’s Jet-- Oh, see, you're thinking
of Jason Scott Lee, Bruce’s son.
248
00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:42,840
No, Bruce’s son was Brandon Lee.
249
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:46,160
I don't care if it’s Jennifer Jason,
just shoosh, shoosh.
250
00:13:46,560 --> 00:13:48,160
Let me focus here.
251
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:49,880
Listen, could you just get some sort of
252
00:13:49,960 --> 00:13:53,320
emergency medical services
on standby, please?
253
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,240
Okay, I'll call the Coroner.
254
00:13:56,560 --> 00:13:59,680
Ah, Deputy Secretary,
a pleasure to meet you.
255
00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:01,560
Senator Greene, how do you do?
256
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:07,520
It has been a pleasure.
257
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:14,640
He seemed nice.
258
00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:17,840
I mean, that went a lot better
than I thought it would.
259
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:19,360
Just keep your head back.
260
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:22,960
Ah, that’s nice.
261
00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,080
I know this is unfortunate timing,
262
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:34,120
but my people have told me that
you should make your reckoning now.
263
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:36,520
Make my reckoning
264
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:38,040
Settle your account.
265
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:42,840
There is not much confidence
amongst any of the drivers’ factions
266
00:14:42,960 --> 00:14:45,120
that you will be a Senator much longer.
267
00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,760
I am under considerable
political pressure right now
268
00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:52,640
and in order to maintain my position,
I have to be seen to be showing strength.
269
00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:55,800
And what position do you think I'm in
to settle any account, mate?
270
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:57,800
I'm a homeless person with a broken nose.
271
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,960
This is about the Princess
and don’t pretend otherwise.
272
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,280
I'll get you a new cat. Put it on the tab.
273
00:15:03,560 --> 00:15:04,840
Half the money. Now.
274
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:08,800
I don't have half... I mean, I don't know
how much the whole amount is, mate,
275
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:10,960
but I can tell you now
I don’t have half of it.
276
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:12,960
Half the money, or half a finger.
277
00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:16,240
Half a finger? What are you,
fuckin' Tony Soprano now?
278
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,840
My colleagues are very serious people.
279
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:24,520
Half a finger?
280
00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:26,960
Mate, I've been driving you
and that anally bereft
281
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,160
cat of yours around for weeks now.
That’s gotta be worth something.
282
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,240
Okay, you get five percent off
for driving.
283
00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:32,880
Christ! How much do you think I owe you?
284
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:35,120
Well let me check. Pass me that ledger.
285
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:38,440
Yep.
286
00:15:44,200 --> 00:15:46,640
A hundred and eighty thousand dollars,
rounded down.
287
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:50,440
A hundred and eighty thousand?
That is impossible, mate.
288
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,400
With interest, very possible.
289
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:55,800
That is bullsh-- I can’t even
conceptualize 180 grand, mate.
290
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:57,680
-Look, it’s not just me.
-Holy shit!
291
00:15:57,800 --> 00:15:59,560
These are very serious people!
292
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:00,880
Who, the drivers?
293
00:16:00,960 --> 00:16:03,320
If I don’t go back
with half the money or half a finger,
294
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:06,520
I will lose their respect
and perhaps a whole finger myself!
295
00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,520
And I don't think that’s fair
under the circumstances.
296
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:12,000
Okay, well let’s just go down to an ATM
and withdraw $90,000.
297
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,000
I'll tell you what,
298
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:16,640
I will... I'll write you a check.
299
00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,520
You can be so amusing sometimes, sir.
300
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,480
Your son has made a lot of money,
has he not?
301
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:30,960
I don't know.
Why are we talking about my son now?
302
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:32,680
You do know he's back in Australia.
303
00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,160
-Since this morning.
304
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,880
He would have called.
How do you know these things?
305
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:40,520
Good God, man,
306
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:44,360
you still do not understand
the mysteries of power.
307
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,080
True power is never seen.
308
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:49,960
We are drivers.
309
00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:52,840
We are this country’s connective tissue,
310
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:57,160
and I want my Princess back.
311
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,960
Hey mate.
312
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:28,440
It’s a long story, Cleave.
313
00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,800
It’s a real cracker.
It’s one for the whole family.
314
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:33,160
Oh, mate.
315
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:36,240
What are you doing
316
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,240
Well, the ball was boring
317
00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,640
and there was all that screaming coming
from the Chinese wedding next door.
318
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:44,400
-So I invited him back for a drink.
319
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,920
Oh my God, are you kidding?
320
00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,440
Oh God! Oh!
321
00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:51,960
God, are you kidding me?
322
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:54,320
Oh!
323
00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:55,480
You all right in there, Cleave?
324
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:59,560
You have not got an original idea
in your head!
325
00:17:59,960 --> 00:18:02,560
Or your penis!
Don’t you see what’s going on?
326
00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:06,000
-He has been stalking me sexually!
-He has not been stalking you.
327
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,360
-For years now! For years!
328
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,840
The world does not revolve
around your penis!
329
00:18:14,360 --> 00:18:17,040
Oh! Oh, what’s Cleaver up to now?
330
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:20,400
You're a sick man. I'm gonna throw up.
331
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,480
You know what? You're right.
You're right, Cleaver.
332
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:25,880
I was screwed up. But Wendy
has helped me see the light.
333
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,600
You know, I was like a crab
lugging around his shell,
334
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:32,640
as opposed to a shell
lugging around his crabs.
335
00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,000
Oh, see that’s not funny.
You think that’s funny.
336
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,560
-He thinks that’s funny.
-I've outgrown my tiny shell.
337
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,480
I now have a new, big, roomy one
338
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,320
with a Jacuzzi and a 70s soundtrack.
339
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,800
-Look at him! That’s my shell!
Oh my God.
340
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:49,320
That is my shell. You gave him my shell.
341
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,120
I didn't give him...
Stop talking about shells!
342
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:55,240
Because you couldn’t have me
and so you were determined to...
343
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,480
To build someone in my likeness.
344
00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:00,200
Cleaver, I rejected you, remember?
345
00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,000
Yes, you rejected me because
346
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,360
you wanted to go
lounging around in Sardinia,
347
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:07,400
and I wanted to stay here
and serve the people.
348
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,320
I rejected you
because I can’t actually trust
349
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:11,280
a single word
that comes out of your mouth.
350
00:19:11,360 --> 00:19:14,400
And the idea of you serving
the people is ridiculous.
351
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,720
-Did you two-- I need to know.
Oh my God.
352
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:20,920
That is absolutely none of your business.
353
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,040
Did it?
354
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,560
Oh, that fucking song again.
355
00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,200
World travel hasn’t made you
any more familiar
356
00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:35,280
with the notion of knocking, I see.
357
00:19:35,360 --> 00:19:38,360
Oh my God, that song’s gonna
drive someone postal one day.
358
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,400
Your mother’s obviously been putting up
with it for a year now.
359
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:46,640
However, number one
on my Freudian hit parade right now
360
00:19:46,720 --> 00:19:49,440
is what the hell is going on with you,
my friend.
361
00:19:50,360 --> 00:19:51,680
Claudia dumped me.
362
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,120
And Claudia would be the...
363
00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:59,040
The octogenarian woman
who lured you into her honey trap?
364
00:19:59,120 --> 00:20:01,680
Fuck, Dad. Don’t joke about this
365
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,280
or I swear to fuck I will get on a plane,
366
00:20:04,360 --> 00:20:06,720
because I came here
for comfort and support.
367
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:10,040
Yes. See, sometimes we think
we need comfort and support
368
00:20:10,120 --> 00:20:12,280
and actually what we really need
369
00:20:12,360 --> 00:20:15,160
is a size nine and a half
Blunny up the clacker.
370
00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,720
Why should men get to be
with women half their age
371
00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:20,880
and women aren’t allowed
to do the same thing?
372
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:24,760
I mean, the President of France
has a wife 25 years older than him.
373
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:26,280
-Correct me if I'm wrong,
374
00:20:26,360 --> 00:20:29,320
but I don't believe the President of
France has fathered a child
375
00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,600
with his own father’s former prostitute,
376
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,560
not that that’d be a problem
in France, of course.
377
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:38,360
Just help me out with one thing, mate.
378
00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:41,520
What in the name of God
379
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,760
could possibly be wrong with Missy?
380
00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:47,520
I mean, she’s an incredible woman.
381
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:49,440
She’s older than you.
382
00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,720
If it’s not working it’s not working.
383
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:54,760
I fell for Claudia the moment I met her--
384
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,800
No, you didn’t. You didn't!
No, you didn’t, you see. This is...
385
00:20:59,960 --> 00:21:02,840
You’ve inherited
your father’s disease, mate.
386
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,360
You're mistaking possibility for love.
387
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:07,400
I don't know what that means.
388
00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,600
The only thing that ever falls
in love at first sight is your penis.
389
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:14,920
Real love presents itself
390
00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,920
slowly, over time,
391
00:21:18,360 --> 00:21:20,000
and sometimes
392
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:23,560
you only realize it
when it’s left the building.
393
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,160
Can you please
stop singing that song?
394
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:35,400
So, um,
395
00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:40,680
how is, uh, how’s every other
little thing in your life?
396
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,280
-It's fine.
397
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,520
-Oh no, just wondering.
398
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:48,800
Shit, how much?
399
00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:50,320
Mate, it doesn't always
have to be about...
400
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,440
-About 90. Quite quickly.
401
00:21:54,360 --> 00:21:55,840
-Fuck.
-Oh, mate.
402
00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,440
It’s the drivers. These are serious guys.
403
00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:02,440
They seem to run the planet,
and I've lost one of their cats.
404
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:09,560
I'll get him.
405
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,160
Not a word from you.
406
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:25,000
Okay, not a syllable from you.
407
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,600
So, here I was,
408
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:31,680
thinking that I was about
to be charged with terrorism,
409
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:33,640
and that’d be fine
because I could defend that.
410
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,240
But no, the charge is
fraudulent use of government property
411
00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,320
for personal financial gain, okay?
412
00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,520
And that’s provable. The fucking creche.
413
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:45,000
It was a community service.
414
00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:46,440
She’s been charging for it.
415
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:50,000
I mean, I assumed she, you know,
she’d be covering the costs of, you know,
416
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:53,400
cheese sticks and party pies. How much
do you think she’s made from this thing?
417
00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,360
I don’t-- I'm not sure, exactly.
418
00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:56,760
Rough guess.
419
00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,920
-Hundred and twenty, hundred and thirty.
420
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:03,200
-Yep.
421
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,160
All declared to the Tax Office,
I'm assuming.
422
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:09,640
There is a serious
423
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,800
shortage of good childcare in this city.
424
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:18,000
Yeah, and, um, so what did you
do with this money?
425
00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,560
I put it under your mattress at my place.
426
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:23,880
Under my mattress
427
00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:27,240
And so how much money do you think
428
00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:30,400
the nice policeman
found under my mattress?
429
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:34,160
I think the policeman
found about a hundred.
430
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:35,440
Hundred thousand.
431
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,280
Yeah, I mean,
we spent a little bit and then,
432
00:23:37,360 --> 00:23:39,160
then we’ve got a lot of family
back in Poland.
433
00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:40,520
Yeah.
434
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,040
Oh, I put on a deposit
for a school for Iain.
435
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:47,520
Oh. And so the nice man
436
00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:52,200
literally found a hundred thousand dollars
under my mattress.
437
00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,040
-It sounds bad, but--
438
00:23:54,120 --> 00:23:57,640
Yeah, it just snowballed.
It got really out of control.
439
00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,120
-I mean, the kids just adored Mama.
440
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:02,400
-And the parents adore Mama.
441
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,480
Okay, here’s how
we’re gonna play this. Right.
442
00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:11,320
You don’t speak
a word of English, all right?
443
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,840
I don't want to hear another word
of English from you
444
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,920
until all this fucknutedness
is over, yeah?
445
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,160
You don’t speak a word of Polish.
446
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:21,160
I'm fluent.
447
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:24,000
You don’t speak a word
of the bastard, all right?
448
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:25,720
That’s the game.
449
00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:28,640
It’s all about confusion, yeah?
450
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:30,800
You came out here as a little girl.
451
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:33,600
Your parents were constantly
squabbling in Polish.
452
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:35,200
I mean they fought a little bit,
but they didn’t--
453
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:38,520
Your parents were constantly
squabbling in Polish.
454
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:40,360
And that’s why you’ve never
embraced the language,
455
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,640
because it stunted you emotionally, okay.
456
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:47,640
Hence your Mum and you have always
had these kind of mix ups,
457
00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:50,200
these constant misinterpretations.
458
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:52,800
It’s been an albatross around your neck
since you were a little girl,
459
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:54,840
and that’s when you start to cry.
460
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,120
Oh, do I have to cry?
461
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:58,720
Yes, of course you have to cry!
462
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:00,920
Are you crazy? How long have you
been working for me?
463
00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:07,960
There’s always been this void--
Void between us.
464
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:13,520
My mother and I, we just don’t understand
each other as a mother and a daughter.
465
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:16,880
I...
466
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,600
I know I love her, but I don't know her.
467
00:25:21,240 --> 00:25:24,640
I've been in Canberra. So busy.
468
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,160
I didn’t know she was running a creche.
469
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:32,480
And my partner Barney ran off
with a Monica Bellucci lookalike.
470
00:25:33,360 --> 00:25:36,200
And Cleaver Greene
knows nothing about this!
471
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:38,640
-I get the picture, Cleaver.
472
00:25:38,720 --> 00:25:41,520
You don’t speak any English, okay?
473
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:45,320
Because you're about to be charged.
Jakub will sort out the bail.
474
00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:47,160
Do you understand?
475
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:52,800
Do you understand?
476
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:57,000
So you'll defend us?
477
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:59,680
I can’t defend you.
I'm not at the Bar anymore.
478
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:01,640
I'm going to have to get
an old friend to do it.
479
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:03,840
Or an old enemy.
480
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:07,280
So he wasn't arrested for terrorism?
What was he arrested for?
481
00:26:07,360 --> 00:26:11,240
His Chief of Staff’s mother was running
a creche out of his Sydney office.
482
00:26:11,320 --> 00:26:12,800
Misuse of public funds.
483
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:15,680
Oh, well, next best thing.
484
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:17,720
It’ll be an open trial, Cal.
485
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,280
-Sure.
486
00:26:20,360 --> 00:26:23,320
Jane, you may want
to excuse yourself as well. Seriously.
487
00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:37,840
It’s about what happened in the new--
488
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:40,320
Well, that is to say
the former Parliament House.
489
00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,840
Oh gee, is it the terrorists?
Is there another plot,
490
00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,600
because I am not backing away
on a fight for this one, Joe.
491
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:47,120
It’s the last thing
the people want to see.
492
00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,640
Cal, there were no terrorists.
493
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:52,600
-It was dodgy plumbing.
494
00:26:54,120 --> 00:26:57,480
Stuffed electrics.
Just a cigarette butt thrown at
495
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,000
some inappropriately placed
cleaning products.
496
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,680
What are you saying?
It was what, an accident?
497
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,320
It was just an accident.
498
00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,280
But you guys were all over the news.
From day one, it was terrorism.
499
00:27:07,360 --> 00:27:09,280
Yeah, well we thought it was for a bit.
500
00:27:09,360 --> 00:27:12,280
But you know, that was before we found out
what actually happened from the plumbers.
501
00:27:12,360 --> 00:27:13,640
Plumbers
502
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:16,960
Oh, the ones who just drowned?
The brothers?
503
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:18,760
As a matter of fact that was them.
504
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:22,200
-So what, we--
-Retrenched them.
505
00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:26,440
That’s all. We retrenched them
with extreme prejudice.
506
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:29,520
Jesus, why did you tell me this?
507
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:30,840
Because you’ve got a choice, Cal.
508
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:32,440
I have no choice!
509
00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:35,040
I have to go straight to the cops
with this one.
510
00:27:35,120 --> 00:27:38,600
Legally, yes, but a number of us,
Gareth, Angela, myself,
511
00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,120
will probably spend
the rest of our fucking lives in prison.
512
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,320
Oh, yeah, and what’d be
the downside for me?
513
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,200
Your government would fall tomorrow,
514
00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,880
and you'd be the shortest serving
Prime Minister in this country’s history.
515
00:27:51,080 --> 00:27:54,000
And what, you say Greene
knows all about this?
516
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:55,400
I don't know what Greene knows.
517
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:57,080
And what, he’s facing an open trial?
518
00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,400
I don't know how he’s going
to get the evidence into it.
519
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,200
Oh, it’s Greene, you idiot!
520
00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:06,840
He doesn't care
if he gets it into evidence.
521
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,840
He’s just gonna put on his circus act
and all the press’ll cover it.
522
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:12,720
Papa.
523
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:27,960
Your hair.
524
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:31,520
Oh, this? Oh, just trying out a new look.
525
00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:34,360
Miss.
526
00:28:34,440 --> 00:28:36,480
Oh God, really
527
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:39,680
Really?
528
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:44,280
Is this really all it takes, Fuzz?
529
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,960
Fuzz, it’s a stupid wig and glasses.
530
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:52,320
You know that if I take these off,
um, I'm not a different person.
531
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,440
I'm the exact same person
that you said that you loved.
532
00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:00,160
You know, I imagined this
being much more satisfying.
533
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:02,320
The wig and the glasses.
534
00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:07,800
I mean, you know people
have their things. Obsessions.
535
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,520
-Whatever.
536
00:29:10,600 --> 00:29:14,440
It’s just it’s not necessarily
something you can control.
537
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:16,760
Fuzz, you can’t lecture me about fetishes.
538
00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,240
Yeah, I know.
I mean, you wrote all about them.
539
00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:24,440
I mean, come on, Miss. Guys in closets
wearing rubber gloves and catsuits. I'm--
540
00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,640
Fuzz, I don't care how old she is.
541
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:30,200
I know I've done a lot of weird shit
in a previous life.
542
00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:40,240
You know what? Shocking as it may seem,
543
00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:42,520
I feel like I've reached a point where
544
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:45,880
I want someone who just wants me.
545
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:00,320
Fuck.
546
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:05,280
So I've just been trying to do a deal
with the DPP, right,
547
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,200
but the government wants my seat,
so they want me out.
548
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:12,200
So I'm basically looking at three years
in the slammer if I don’t do a deal,
549
00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:14,560
but if I plead guilty, that’s the end
of my political career,
550
00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:17,160
so I'm basically fucked, mate.
I am fucked.
551
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:20,680
And to say nothing of the fact
that I'm about to lose a digit or two,
552
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:23,880
so Fuzzy, if you could possibly
see your way clear, mate,
553
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,200
if you’ve got 90 lying around
in a sock drawer somewhere,
554
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:27,960
now would be the time to whip it out.
555
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,600
Missy’s playing mind games with me.
556
00:30:30,680 --> 00:30:33,000
Did you hear what I just said?
557
00:30:33,080 --> 00:30:38,200
Mate, I've made this observation about
your generation before, about listening.
558
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:39,920
She was wearing a wig.
559
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:42,560
-I rest my case.
-It was silvery grey.
560
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:44,440
Fuck, mate,
561
00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:48,960
well, silvery grey wig, you'd like that,
wouldn’t you, with your special needs.
562
00:30:49,040 --> 00:30:52,600
She had these glasses on. I always
had a thing for women in glasses.
563
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,280
Oh, well, yeah,
let’s just have a chat about that.
564
00:30:55,360 --> 00:30:57,800
Let’s talk about that, as opposed to
565
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:02,040
the fact that your old man’s gonna end up
back in the fuckin' clink again.
566
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:04,040
Sorry.
567
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,880
Dad, she knows I'm a Californian resident.
She’s probably
568
00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,000
-freezing my assets as we speak.
569
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:14,160
Right. Okay.
570
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,360
So that’s-- And that’d be where
any kind of potential
571
00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:21,680
loany thing might be coming from.
572
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,560
Yep. It’s where the money is.
573
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,120
See, that’s no good.
574
00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,880
I'm about to start shedding fingers.
575
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,200
All right, mate,
I'll be back in a jiffy, okay?
576
00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,000
-This has to stop.
577
00:31:36,080 --> 00:31:38,080
You can’t punish Fuzz.
578
00:31:38,160 --> 00:31:39,880
-No.
579
00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,360
On what basis would I
not want to punish Fuzz?
580
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:43,800
Compassion.
581
00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:45,960
Compassion?
-Come on.
582
00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:48,280
Come on, I've shown you
compassion, haven’t I,
583
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,760
over the last years or so,
when you’ve needed it.
584
00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:53,040
-Oh, Cleave.
585
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,760
I don't know if compassion
has really been the mixer
586
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:57,520
in the cocktail of our relationship.
587
00:31:57,600 --> 00:32:00,520
You cannot freeze his US assets.
588
00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:04,000
That would be a disaster
for him, for you, for Winny.
589
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:06,240
I mean, that would put her
in a very vulnerable situation.
590
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,000
Freeze his US assets.
I didn’t even think of that.
591
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:12,600
Well, good,
because that’s a terrible idea.
592
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,200
That would give me a lot
of bargaining power, wouldn’t it?
593
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:16,840
Just let’s turn the heat down
on this whole...
594
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:18,560
And now he’s a resident of California,
595
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,480
the courts are very sympathetic
to abandoned mothers.
596
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:25,680
Abandoned? Come on! This is
the father of your beautiful daughter.
597
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:27,320
Where’s your humanity?
598
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,000
How much do you need from him?
599
00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:32,960
Ninety.
600
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:35,160
-Quickly.
601
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,200
Look, Cleave,
I don't want to hurt him badly,
602
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,240
but I think it’s only fair
that he feels some pain.
603
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:44,240
And I've already spoken
to a hot-shot lawyer in San Francisco.
604
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:46,040
Oh, see that’s a terrible--
605
00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:49,400
You don’t need some smartarse
Friscan prick coming in here
606
00:32:49,480 --> 00:32:52,840
and stealing 40% of your income.
That’s a terrible idea.
607
00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,800
We’re family. We sort this
shit out tonight. Come on. What sort of a split are you after?
608
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,760
70-30 his way, current and future assets.
609
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:04,840
Four grand a week maintenance.
610
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,920
That’s for rent, clothing,
schooling, holidays,
611
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:09,960
everything Winny needs until she’s 18.
612
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:11,600
Okay.
613
00:33:11,680 --> 00:33:13,160
Can’t make any promises.
614
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:15,880
50-50 is what she’s after, mate.
615
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:17,600
-No.
-50-50 on the assets.
616
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:19,960
Ten grand for Winny until she’s 25.
617
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:21,640
-That’s where we are.
618
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:23,760
Are you-- This is fuckin' bullshit.
619
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:25,520
-Well, it’s where she is, mate.
-It’s bullshit, mate.
620
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:28,200
I can do better in California.
I'll get a fucking team of lawyers.
621
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:29,880
-A fucking division of them.
-You think you could--
622
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:31,600
And she’ll fuckin' pay me, mate.
623
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:33,560
-No, don’t talk like that. Listen,
-Fuck!
624
00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:36,960
there’s a chance it’s just
an opening gambit, all right?
625
00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,160
Oh, mate, I am finding this too stressful.
626
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:40,480
Yes, I can see that.
627
00:33:40,560 --> 00:33:42,320
If you can sort this out tonight,
628
00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:45,000
then I will look after you.
629
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,480
Yeah? Okay.
630
00:33:48,120 --> 00:33:51,360
Well, that’s very kind, thank you.
631
00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:56,560
Okay. What about we say something like
632
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,760
-70-30 your way on the assets.
-Yup.
633
00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:02,200
And something like
634
00:34:02,960 --> 00:34:07,640
four grand for Winny
a week until she finishes school.
635
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:10,400
Okay. Yeah, yeah, if you could--
Mate, if you could do that--
636
00:34:10,480 --> 00:34:13,360
-I'll try. No promises.
-Oh, fuck.
637
00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:18,639
Okay, he has reluctantly
accepted your terms.
638
00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,719
I have prepared a short form
memorandum of understanding.
639
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,120
Both copies are in with Fuzz as we speak.
640
00:34:24,199 --> 00:34:25,520
You should sign them tonight
641
00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:29,280
and I can get it into the proper
legal sewer on your behalf, okay?
642
00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:33,480
So I will be needing my 90 grand
pretty much tomorrow,
643
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:39,320
and I would appreciate you backing me up
on that as a term of the MOU.
644
00:34:40,159 --> 00:34:41,679
Fine.
645
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:43,679
Good.
646
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:02,520
Hey, what’s going on?
647
00:35:03,720 --> 00:35:07,840
Oh, just putting out another one
of life’s little spot fires.
648
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:09,160
You're welcome.
649
00:35:09,240 --> 00:35:12,480
Terry is a monkey
And he's very funky
650
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:17,160
Does he have to parade around
like a sex pest?
651
00:35:17,240 --> 00:35:19,560
Can we get him a full length dress,
do you think?
652
00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:22,440
Bananas, bananas, let’s go bananas
653
00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:24,640
Mate, nobody’s laughing.
654
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:26,520
You and me
655
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:30,000
Is that Fuzz and Missy?
656
00:35:31,720 --> 00:35:33,320
Oh, what’d you say to them?
657
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:35,160
What are they doing?
658
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:37,400
What are they doing?
659
00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:43,040
-Fuck off, Cleave.
660
00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:49,160
Oh come on, that’s-- It’s not a--
661
00:35:49,240 --> 00:35:51,280
It’s not a barn, you know.
662
00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:52,640
Come.
663
00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:59,920
Oh, that’s hilarious.
664
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:04,400
That's great, guys.
Oh, I'm cacking myself.
665
00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:07,160
-Great. Really fun.
666
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:11,760
Because it's your way of getting 90 grand? No. But that--
There was more to it than that.
667
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,320
Well what was it, Cleave,
because we don’t want to sign it.
668
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:18,960
We think we can come
to an agreement on our own terms,
669
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:20,840
in our own time, if we even have to.
670
00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:24,240
We had a perfectly good,
functioning divorce going,
671
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:28,720
and you two have just treated it
with complete contempt.
672
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,960
Also, I never asked
for a 50-50 split, Cleave.
673
00:36:32,040 --> 00:36:34,200
It was a negotiation, guys.
674
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:35,720
Neither of you is a lawyer.
675
00:36:35,840 --> 00:36:37,840
You were trying to shake us down.
676
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:41,800
That is...
I wasn't asking for a gift from you.
677
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:45,240
I was trying to get a loan, okay,
678
00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:47,240
from my own flesh and blood.
679
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,120
-Too much to ask--
-A loan to you is a gift, Cleave.
680
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:54,000
Wow. Well, that’s just lovely
681
00:36:54,080 --> 00:36:58,400
and I'm glad you're both having
a good laugh and you're all so happy.
682
00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:02,400
Well, one thing’s for sure.
You can say goodbye to this.
683
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:10,360
Cleave, this isn’t about you.
684
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:13,040
Yes it is. What do you mean,
it’s not about me?
685
00:37:13,120 --> 00:37:14,840
It’s as much about me as it is about you.
686
00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:18,520
You just think it’s not about me because
you think it’s just about you.
687
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:19,920
Stop it.
688
00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,080
So what, are you gonna
get married or something?
689
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:25,080
Yeah. We’re gonna have a big white wedding
690
00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,200
and we’re going to have roses
strewn down the aisle
691
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:31,640
and John Paul Young is hopefully
going to sing Love Is In The Air
692
00:37:31,720 --> 00:37:35,000
and there’s gonna be tulle everywhere,
especially on the men.
693
00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:36,880
Right, so that’s a no.
694
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,480
He is your son.
695
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:42,920
Mm-hmm.
696
00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:47,040
But I am happy though.
697
00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:49,640
-Yeah.
698
00:37:50,360 --> 00:37:52,080
Scarily so.
699
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:55,000
Well, good. ‘Cause you deserve to be.
700
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:57,600
Yeah, I know I do.
701
00:38:10,480 --> 00:38:11,960
Checkmate.
702
00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,040
No.
-Mmm.
703
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:16,880
What, six moves?
704
00:38:20,800 --> 00:38:22,120
I'm very good at this game.
705
00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:25,200
Yeah, well three games in 20 minutes,
I can tell.
706
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:27,720
On our second date I played with Cleaver
707
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:31,160
and I thrashed him so badly
that he refused to ever play me again.
708
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:34,080
Why does that not surprise me?
709
00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:36,800
Do you want to play scrabble?
710
00:38:36,920 --> 00:38:38,600
Well, that depends.
How good are you at scrabble?
711
00:38:38,720 --> 00:38:40,680
I'm even better at scrabble
than I am at chess.
712
00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:42,680
-Especially if it’s dirty scrabble.
713
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:45,960
Ah. You wanna play dirty scrabble.
714
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:48,000
Oh my God, if I get an F and a K
715
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,440
and I play it on a triple word,
you are gone.
716
00:38:52,400 --> 00:38:55,760
So, um, does that mean
maybe tonight we will...
717
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:03,280
It’s been so nice kissing
and fooling around and,
718
00:39:04,480 --> 00:39:08,720
you know, but we’re not going to be
a couple, David. You know that.
719
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:12,600
Yeah.
720
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,400
It’s just I've been looking after
other people my whole life, you know.
721
00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:17,160
I do it for a living and I...
722
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:19,920
I really need to look after myself.
723
00:39:20,880 --> 00:39:22,800
And I can only do that on my own.
724
00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:26,400
And I know, I know there is
someone out there for you,
725
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,000
and she will be amazing.
726
00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:30,400
And she will come out of nowhere,
727
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:35,400
and she won’t be a politician
or a therapist or a callgirl
728
00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:37,880
or a, you know, lawyer.
729
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:40,760
She’ll just be meant for you.
730
00:39:42,560 --> 00:39:46,360
And sincerely, my wish for you is that
you can just surrender to your life
731
00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,440
and fuck off the instruction manual.
732
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:55,560
Well, me, too.
733
00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:03,560
Evening.
734
00:40:06,720 --> 00:40:08,640
-Couple of things...
-Before you start
735
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:11,000
just let me tell you this.
736
00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:16,480
You are an idiot for losing that woman.
Do you know that?
737
00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:19,280
-That’s right. Thanks for helping me out with that.
That’s great.
738
00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:24,600
Here’s a couple of things for you, okay?
739
00:40:24,720 --> 00:40:28,400
If you're going to be spending
any length of time in this house,
740
00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:32,240
I would appreciate if you didn’t do it
in Wendy’s nighties, okay?
741
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:36,200
‘Cause I find that a little offensive
to mine eye, if you understand.
742
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,040
Exactly why did you give her up?
743
00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:39,680
-Why did you--
-Mate, that’s my business!
744
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:41,520
-I'm a free spirit.
745
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,160
-You wouldn’t understand.
746
00:40:43,240 --> 00:40:46,280
A free spirit
747
00:40:46,360 --> 00:40:48,800
-If that is being you...
-I'm like Bowie, or Marley.
748
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:51,120
...then I don't wanna be you.
749
00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:55,040
Mate, you couldn’t be me
if your fuckin' life depended on it.
750
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,080
-Look at you!
751
00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:58,920
And then look at me, all right?
752
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:01,640
-That’s why you couldn’t be me.
753
00:41:01,720 --> 00:41:04,320
Yeah. Regrettably, you are you.
754
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:06,680
-You're a dirty ibis.
755
00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:08,040
You're a human turd.
756
00:41:08,560 --> 00:41:10,440
Mate, you're a fuckin' turd.
757
00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:15,640
Get outta here!
Oh, mate, I got a lot of this!
758
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:17,200
-Don’t start me!
-I got a lot of this!
759
00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:19,200
You’ve got your shirt...
Yeah, you do have a lot more--
760
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,680
Turd! Turd! Turd!
761
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:29,040
Are they really that delicate?
762
00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:32,680
Oh, you're fucking kidding me.
763
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:34,920
Oh! Oh! Oh, God.
764
00:41:38,240 --> 00:41:40,360
You know I really need a drink.
765
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:43,920
See, now you really sound like me.
766
00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:49,280
So,
767
00:41:50,200 --> 00:41:52,040
new Parliament House,
768
00:41:52,720 --> 00:41:55,960
by which I mean
the former Parliament House.
769
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:57,320
What?
770
00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:01,200
You're on the Committee of Inquiry,
aren’t you?
771
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:02,760
Yes, yeah.
772
00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:05,240
How they gained access,
whatever shit they used
773
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,000
but, you know,
the science isn’t easy, so...
774
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:10,480
See, I think shit might be
the operative word.
775
00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:12,240
What do you mean?
776
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:16,640
Well, I have a feeling the whole thing
might have been about poo.
777
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:20,240
-Poo.
-Poo.
778
00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:21,760
Why do you say that?
779
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:25,760
Well, you know,
those two plumbers who died?
780
00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:27,400
The ones who drowned?
781
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:31,720
They came to my place a while back
and they did a bit of work.
782
00:42:31,800 --> 00:42:34,480
And they were interesting guys,
and we got to talking.
783
00:42:34,560 --> 00:42:38,400
And they were sent in under the tarp,
784
00:42:39,240 --> 00:42:41,640
and then a short time later...
785
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:44,520
Why have you sat on this?
786
00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:47,480
Well, because they're dead now,
787
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:51,280
which puts us in a very tricky position
in terms of evidence,
788
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:54,600
and because it’s me
and nobody’s gonna believe me.
789
00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:56,520
-That’s true.
-And if I'm right,
790
00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:58,240
I don't want to fuck it up. But that’s where you come in.
791
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:05,560
So your theory is that this was
basically sloppy maintenance
792
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:09,520
made to look like a terrorist attack
for political purposes.
793
00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,120
-That’s the theory.
-Christ.
794
00:43:15,440 --> 00:43:17,240
My committee doesn't sit
for another month.
795
00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:19,320
Even then without witnesses,
796
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:23,680
I mean, we’re talking about two,
possibly three, Prime Ministers lying.
797
00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:25,920
-Mm-hmm.
798
00:43:26,000 --> 00:43:29,960
Here’s the thing.
I was thinking, my creche case.
799
00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:33,440
-Mate, it's me.
800
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:38,320
-Yes.
801
00:43:38,440 --> 00:43:41,440
But I'm gonna need your back up.
802
00:43:42,240 --> 00:43:46,960
Okay? And I've sought out
a reliable old enemy
803
00:43:47,760 --> 00:43:50,560
to represent Nicole and her Mum.
804
00:43:52,840 --> 00:43:56,280
We are all children of someone,
are we not?
805
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,600
Of lesser or greater gods?
806
00:43:58,720 --> 00:44:04,240
As seven year olds, we all looked upon
our futures assuming a rosy disposition.
807
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:08,080
Why should life turn grey and thorny?
808
00:44:09,280 --> 00:44:14,720
One of the beauties of life
is understanding myriad pricks
809
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:19,200
maintain a majestic, pink rose--
810
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:24,120
Ms Huntley-Brown, is there a point
that your argument is searching for?
811
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:26,720
With the greatest respect, Your Honor,
812
00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:30,240
there is a question of context,
which I'm sure you would appreciate.
813
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:32,320
Not quiet yet, no.
814
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:36,320
Really? The concept of governments
hiding the truth
815
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:40,080
is as ancient
as the concept of government itself.
816
00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:43,240
Your Honor, a shabby blue tarpaulin
817
00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:47,280
has shrouded our national parliament
for some months,
818
00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:50,040
and that is not just a metaphor,
that is a deceit!
819
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:53,000
Ms Huntley-Brown, what has that got to do
820
00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:55,920
with a case about
the misuse of public funds
821
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:58,000
regarding an office in Sydney?
822
00:44:59,160 --> 00:45:01,000
I will see counsel in my chambers.
823
00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:02,720
All rise.
824
00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:05,640
What the fuck is going on, Hunter?
825
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:08,040
I'll tell you what’s going on.
826
00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:10,360
There’s a giant blue condom
hanging over our parliament.
827
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:13,000
Forgive me,
but I can’t see the connection.
828
00:45:13,520 --> 00:45:16,600
If something horrible is happening
to Parliament House, and it clearly is,
829
00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:18,360
that is deeply regrettable.
830
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,280
But what has it got to do with this case?
831
00:45:21,360 --> 00:45:24,360
Reggie, the government is trying
to cover up its own negligence.
832
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:29,240
Their efforts to silence Senator Greene
and Senator Potter’s Committee of Inquiry,
833
00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:31,800
and their staff, is beyond sinister.
834
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:34,080
The dead plumbers.
835
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,560
Do you really believe
that was an accident?
836
00:45:36,680 --> 00:45:37,840
What?
837
00:45:39,120 --> 00:45:43,320
I don't know how to express
myself more clearly.
838
00:45:43,400 --> 00:45:47,520
I do not want this argument going on!
839
00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:49,400
It is irrelevant!
840
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:53,720
I'm going to have to excuse myself.
841
00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:03,120
Very nice.
842
00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:11,040
-Your Honor.
-Senator.
843
00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:18,360
-Oh, Senator.
-Senator Potter.
844
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:19,720
Your Honor.
845
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:24,320
The passing of the Chief Justice
is a great blow to us all.
846
00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:25,800
Indeed.
847
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:28,880
Not sure if you're aware, Your Honor,
848
00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:32,960
but Senator Potter here is a member
of the Senate Judicial Advisory Committee
849
00:46:33,040 --> 00:46:36,160
with the responsibility of advising
the Attorney General
850
00:46:36,240 --> 00:46:38,640
on judicial appointments.
851
00:46:38,720 --> 00:46:41,680
You went to University
with the Attorney, didn’t you?
852
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:44,040
Oh, well, I certainly did, yes.
853
00:46:44,120 --> 00:46:47,280
Oh, just out of curiosity, has...
854
00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:50,920
Has the Attorney indicated any replacement
for the late Chief Justice?
855
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:55,280
Ah, no, but there is a short list.
856
00:46:56,960 --> 00:46:59,040
Changing the subject completely,
857
00:46:59,120 --> 00:47:02,880
I've prepared what might be described
as an amicus brief
858
00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:04,760
for Senator Greene.
859
00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:08,880
Background information
that were he allowed to tender
860
00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:12,520
might prove useful in these proceedings.
861
00:47:13,720 --> 00:47:15,120
I see.
862
00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:18,480
Right.
863
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:22,520
And what about the matter of relevance?
864
00:47:22,640 --> 00:47:24,920
-Well, look, Your Honor,
865
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:28,680
in the unlikely event
it should prove irrelevant,
866
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,920
you could always
instruct the jury to disregard it.
867
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,200
Yeah, yeah, I could do that.
868
00:47:35,120 --> 00:47:37,320
In the interests of justice.
869
00:47:38,160 --> 00:47:40,280
-Your Honor.
-Your Honor.
870
00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:48,480
Your Honor, the attempts by this
government to silence me and my staff
871
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:52,520
have reached such an egregious level
872
00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:55,480
that they now want to lock us up
for looking after children.
873
00:47:55,640 --> 00:47:59,280
That is what government
has become in this country.
874
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:01,120
If your enemies won’t shut up,
875
00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:03,360
lock 'em up for pastoral care.
876
00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:04,800
Quite frankly, Your Honor,
877
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:07,400
after repeated attempts on my life,
878
00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:10,600
I feel quite lucky to be standing here.
879
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:12,960
Objection, Your Honor.
880
00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:15,960
This is entirely irrelevant.
881
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:22,760
Overruled.
882
00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:25,360
You may continue, Senator Greene.
883
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:31,800
Thank you, Your Honor.
884
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:38,480
Your Honor, there was no terrorist attack
on Parliament House.
885
00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:42,080
It was, quite simply,
a matter of poor plumbing.
886
00:48:42,160 --> 00:48:45,400
Holy fuckin' camoley!
See, I told you he’d get it in.
887
00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:47,760
We have to shut this trial down.
888
00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:50,200
-Get the DPP to end it.
889
00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:52,120
On whatever grounds you can come up with. Martians have invaded.
I don't give a shit.
890
00:48:54,160 --> 00:48:56,600
That’s why he’s got the job,
if he wants the job.
891
00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:58,520
And the serious option?
892
00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:02,800
Can we risk it?
893
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:04,560
Two plumbers are already dead.
894
00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:06,400
That had nothing to do with me.
895
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:09,960
We need to implode Parliament House.
896
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:11,720
Implode
897
00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:14,680
Not on my watch.
898
00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:18,040
Cal, at some point
the tarp is gonna have to come off,
899
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:21,560
and some scientists who’ve been
stripped of government funding
900
00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:25,480
are going to go in there and quickly
discover there was no act of terrorism,
901
00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:27,440
just some dodgy fucking plumbing.
902
00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:29,200
So we say,
903
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,920
that in order to preserve
the water table, or whatever--
904
00:49:32,040 --> 00:49:36,480
No, we say in order to preserve
the city of Canberra,
905
00:49:37,240 --> 00:49:40,440
that that Parliament House,
built under Labor’s watch is so toxic
906
00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:43,040
because of the terrorists,
it has to come down.
907
00:49:43,720 --> 00:49:46,000
And we get to build a new one.
908
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:48,680
Thousands of jobs, tada! I get to save Canberra
909
00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:56,120
and build a new Parliament.
910
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:58,520
Yes, Prime Minister, you do.
911
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:01,560
Well, what about Greene?
What about Potter
912
00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:04,480
Potter’ll shut up if we up
the refugee budget by say,
913
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:05,720
I don't know, two hundred mill.
914
00:50:05,800 --> 00:50:07,800
Two hundred mill? Christ!
915
00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:11,720
Okay, okay, we can do that.
916
00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:14,160
Greene?
917
00:50:16,040 --> 00:50:17,600
We’re not thinking...
918
00:50:18,680 --> 00:50:23,440
How can we? I mean, will any of us ever
know sleep again if we do such a thing?
919
00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:25,400
It’s either that
920
00:50:26,840 --> 00:50:28,480
or we have to kill him.
921
00:50:37,720 --> 00:50:39,280
Please, allow me.
922
00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:48,920
Ah.
923
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:51,960
Thank you, mate.
924
00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:54,280
Oh, God, shit!
925
00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:57,720
Oh, mate, why did you--
926
00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:00,400
Mate, I gave you a hundred grand
from under my mattress!
927
00:51:00,520 --> 00:51:02,120
Well, there’s still another 80.
928
00:51:02,760 --> 00:51:05,840
But this will buy us more time
with my people. I've got bandages.
929
00:51:09,240 --> 00:51:10,600
Hey.
930
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:13,960
-Hey.
-Um... I've got you a present.
931
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:18,040
Oh.
932
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:21,320
Oh, wow.
933
00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:27,760
Oh, it’s beautiful.
934
00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:30,120
Oh, good. Um, I am--
935
00:51:31,280 --> 00:51:32,760
I just, um...
936
00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:35,760
You know, it was really
important to me that I
937
00:51:36,640 --> 00:51:39,920
acknowledge your resilience, you know,
938
00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:42,760
and your tenacity
939
00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:45,920
and our long, complicated
history together.
940
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,120
And it is history, you know. And--
941
00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:52,400
Oh, God, I haven’t done this for so long.
942
00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:56,680
But I loved you very much, you know?
943
00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:01,560
And we made a beautiful,
complicated young man together.
944
00:52:03,240 --> 00:52:05,560
And I just really want you to know
that despite all the nonsense,
945
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:07,600
I don’t regret a minute of it.
946
00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:11,240
That looks terrible.
947
00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:14,280
No, it’s beautiful.
948
00:52:33,960 --> 00:52:35,320
Hey.
949
00:52:37,560 --> 00:52:40,040
Hey.
950
00:52:40,120 --> 00:52:41,560
Gidday, mate.
951
00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:43,680
-Hello puss. Oh.
952
00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:53,400
Princess!
953
00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:56,680
How?
954
00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:58,720
See, I've been getting up early, mate,
955
00:52:58,800 --> 00:53:01,040
and going searching
956
00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:03,160
and she just ran straight into my arms.
957
00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:04,680
I mean, she loves me.
958
00:53:05,960 --> 00:53:08,200
You have a cudd--
You have a cuddle. I'll drive.
959
00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:10,280
No, no, no, I'll drive.
960
00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:13,600
Well, no, I'm happy to drive.
961
00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:15,600
Hap...
962
00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:26,000
Oh, mate.
963
00:53:26,120 --> 00:53:27,480
Hey, Cleaver,
964
00:53:28,320 --> 00:53:29,840
I'm thinking,
965
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:33,640
don't worry about the remaining 80 grand.
966
00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:35,440
It’s forgiven.
967
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:40,320
All I really wanted
was to have my Princess back.
968
00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:43,920
Great. Thanks, mate. Good on ya.
969
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:51,560
I, Cleaver Augustus Greene,
970
00:53:52,560 --> 00:53:55,800
do swear allegiance
to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II,
971
00:53:56,240 --> 00:53:58,720
her heirs and successors according to law,
972
00:53:59,880 --> 00:54:03,520
that I will well and truly serve her
and her successors
973
00:54:04,160 --> 00:54:07,680
in the office of Chief Justice
in the High Court of Australia.
974
00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:12,480
And that I will do right to all manner
of people according to law
975
00:54:12,560 --> 00:54:15,320
without fear or favor,
976
00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:17,800
affection or ill will.
977
00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:20,720
So help me God.
978
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:29,480
It’s actually against the law to finger
the Chief Justice’s robes in this way.
979
00:54:29,560 --> 00:54:30,960
It’s not. It’s manmade, isn’t it?
980
00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:32,520
Hey.
981
00:54:33,840 --> 00:54:35,360
-Oh, yes.
-Mmm.
982
00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:37,920
Jesus Christ on a bicycle.
983
00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:40,760
-Mmm.
-Yes. Isn’t he just.
984
00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:42,520
-There we go then.
-Yes.
985
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:46,760
-Congratulations, Cleaver.
-Oh, well, thank you mate.
986
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:49,520
You know I own your arse now.
987
00:54:50,440 --> 00:54:54,680
Oh, Cal, you’ve always been
a shit lawyer, haven’t you?
988
00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:57,040
Because I'm Chief Justice,
989
00:54:57,120 --> 00:54:59,600
so I own your arse.
990
00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:23,520
So what’s on the agenda today, Jakub?
991
00:55:23,600 --> 00:55:26,760
Well, you have this case,
Button and Deane.
992
00:55:26,840 --> 00:55:28,080
I could walk you through it.
993
00:55:28,160 --> 00:55:29,800
Is it a yes or a no?
994
00:55:29,880 --> 00:55:31,360
Definitely a no.
995
00:55:32,280 --> 00:55:35,120
Then there’s one involving my union,
996
00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:40,160
and whether we have overexercised
our rates in terms of sub-contracting.
997
00:55:40,240 --> 00:55:42,600
That’s a no as well, I take it.
998
00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:45,960
In terms of equity, yes, Mr Chief Justice.
999
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:47,560
But you're the Judge.
1000
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:24,840
-Okay, darling.
1001
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:38,520
Madame.
1002
00:56:58,080 --> 00:56:59,920
-Oh my God.
1003
00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:01,600
Cleave, no!
1004
00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:04,280
-Bluebottle!
-Oh! Hey!
1005
00:57:04,400 --> 00:57:05,800
-Hey!
-They love me!
1006
00:57:05,880 --> 00:57:08,360
Can we get a little bit of help over here?
1007
00:57:08,440 --> 00:57:11,920
It’s the Chief Justice of Australia,
just so you know!
1008
00:57:12,000 --> 00:57:15,240
-They’re not coming off!
1009
00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:16,960
What, shut your face
1010
00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:18,960
Just shake your face!
1011
00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:22,400
Oh my God! Like there’s
one almost in your ear!
