01x05 - Episode 5

[bunniefuu]

(Ed) Ah, Do we really want
to get mixed up in this?

(Heather) Well,
we already are a little bit.

You know, if we take down
the number plates,

then it shows that
we're not involved.

Hey. What are you doing?

(Louie) You know, he tortures people
when they f*ck up?

(Gravel) Who?
(Louie) The one in the blazer.

(Ed) We've got their broken boat.

Got their number plates,
now we've got the GPS.

(Heather) What the hell is out there?

(Sam) It's just that the crew
out there have no food or water,

and they're going to die soon.

-Are you f*cking kidding me?
-Excuse me?

-I don't wanna be done for m*rder.
(Stevie) Well, those

(Stevie) mad Chinese guys, gone
and bought another boat.

Oh, you have cash?

Gee, that boat's gotta cost,
what, close to grand?

(Stevie) Ah yeah, roughly.

(Stevie)
Can you launch this tonight?

(Thugga) When the laundry lands,
cut it in half

dig a hole somewhere
safe and bury half of it.

(tense music)
(Ed) I want to report something.

I, I mean,
there's a crime happening now.

(Heather) What if they
do something to us?

(Ed) Yeah, hello, Stevie.
minutes, then.

Okay. See you then.

(relaxed music)

-Hey. Are you Aquaman?
-Man? No.

(Lesley) Showers not doing the job?

-You taking your meds?
-Why's that?

-You don't look well, at all.
-It's cause I'm not.

This holiday
must be sucking balls.

Between you and me, it really is.

Hey, um. Why did that boy ask
me if I'm Aquaman?

-You're always wet.
-All right. Fair enough.

(knocking)

(Ed) No, ah... No need to head
to Shipwrecks Bay, mate.

(Ed) No, we can just launch it
down the front here.

Yeah, okey dokey Stevie.

Yeah, beauty mate.

Okay. I'll see you later, alligator.

-See you later, alligator?
-I'm just trying to be casual.

We have to.

(phone beeps)

(tense music)

Yes, hello.

Am I being recorded?

Okay.

This is Ed, I called earlier.

Yes, this is my second call.

Yep, that's the one, the k one.

Yep.

So I'll launch them then I'll come
back here, call you again

and let you know where they'll be.

Yeah, sounds good. We'll talk then.

Okay?

-Yeah, they just want us to take
down the number of the new trailer.

My hands are all sweaty.

Okay, let's just get this
out of the way.

Okay.

(computer alert bleeps)

Hey, Geraldo! Sweet,
I am outta here.

Anything of ah interest?

Ah yeah, couple of things
to look into, um

I just dropped
them into "to investigate" file.

What did it say?

Um, something about
a dodgy boat launch or something.

Dodge launching boats again?

Nah, nah. Nah, Ed called it in.

(pensive music)
Okay, um, I'll look into it.

All right. See you later, G-man.

Yep. See you.

Hey. Hey, Son. How you going?

(opening credit music)

(tense music)

(waves lap softly on boat)

(urine splashes in toilet)

(boat creaks)
(Ling groans)

(Ling groans)

(hums melodically)

Oh, you've got to at least scrape it

so that you can't
even see New Zealand.

Why do we care about the labels?
We already have the laundry.

Just 'cause if anything happens
to the boat,

like, if they get caught,

we don't want them to know
that they delivered

anything to New Zealand.

That's what Thugga texted.

Sweet. If Thugga say so.

(Tall Guy) Maybe...
Stevie's allergic to chlorine.

Aye?

You know, I used to date this chick
once, yeah

and oh my.... anyways, like,

she was allergic to chlorine
and used to play water polo,

had to stop because she'd vomit
after games and stuff, it was...

-Oh, Stevie doesn't play water polo.
-Yeah, but he has so many showers.

(Tall Guy) Yeah?

Come on, Louie.

It's like that. Bada bing,

bada boom!

I'm out.

Aye, what? But the boat's
turning up soon.

Yeah, but I'm just a spotter
driver, Louie.

Not earning the big bucks
like you. Yeah?

(laughs) Okay.

Aye...

(chilled cool music)

(Ed) Okay. Wow.

(Heather) Far out.

-Gee, I wouldn't mind one of those.
-It's definitely not weed.

-You ready?
-As I'll ever be.

Number plates.

Hey, breathe, breathe.

Stay calm.

-Hmm, hmm
-They don't suspect a thing.

There's no reason to.

We'll just do it, then it's done.

We played our part. We helped.

It's not like we can
get out of it now, is it?

-I'll take the tractor.

-You bring the ute?
-Hmm, hmm

-Love you.
-Love you too.

-I'll see you down the beach.
-Hmm, hmm. Yep.

(tense music)

(breathes deeply)
Carly.

Come on, girl.

Good girl. Come on, let's go.

(Stevie groans)

Yeah.

(muffled music plays on headphones)

Think fast.

What was that for?

Quit f*cking around.
Get the food and water into the boat.

-Where's Tall Guy?
(tractor engine revs)

Oh, he said he was just a spotter,
didn't need to come.

What'dya mean?

Well, he just said
like, it wasn't his job, so...

-(Ed) See you at the beach boys.
-Easy.

I said all hands on deck.

Ah, well. He said he wasn't
getting paid the big bucks.

f*cking dickhead. Where's Stevie?

-He's just in the front.
-f*ck.

Louie, how many, ah, boxes we get?

(Louie) Ah, like ten boxes.

-There's no beetroot, aye?
-Yeah, no beetroot.

Oh, Tall Guy got some chow-chow
cause it sounded Chinese.

Bruh, you should have got
some sweet and sour, aye?

Oh yeah, well.

Move!

(Ed) Where's Toby?

(Heather) Home. Sleep on the rug.

You think those lamps are working?

Yeah, I think so. Yeah.

(gulls call)

You think they're going
to be able to launch it this time?

They'd have to be the worst boaties
in the world to fail in that thing.

(engine stops)

-Tight fit?
-Nah, Louie's a pretty small dude.

Nice gloves.

(Gravel) Yeah. Don't want to get our
hands dirty, you know?

Sandy.
(pensive music)

(Gravel) They got Sandy last time,
and it's ah,

hard to get out
from under the fingernails.

(Ed) So this boat's ah, ready to go?

(Gravel) Better be.

(tense music)

Nice boat, aye?
(Ed) Yeah, she's a beauty mate.

(Gravel) Yeah, it's
one of my best ones.

(Ed) Yeah. Okay.

(Gravel) Actually,
did you wanna, buy the boat

after we're done with the trip?

(Ed) Ah, don't think so, mate.
Bit out of my price range.

-What's that?
(Cai) Sam!

(Sam) "Huh?"

(music intensifies)

You guys. You don't learn, do you?

(nervously)
You didn't put these in.

(Heather)
They forgot to put the bungs in.

(Ed) Good to go, huh?

Cai is just asking, politely,
if you could just please double check

the boat one more time, please.

Bruh, why does he sound angry
even when he's asking nicely?

Different culture.

Aye...yeah...

(Gravel) Bruh! Sam!

Hey, what's up?

-You going fishing?
-Yeah.

They love their fishing.

Really?

Yeah, like a charter business.

Why are you putting them there?
They'll fly off in the waves.

Good point.

Do you think that the fishing cover
story was really necessary?

Yeah. It's what we told the guys
we bought the boat from.

Gotta keep all the cover
stories going.

Yeah. Can never have
too many cover stories.

It's like an onion.

Every layer you get, the further away
from the truth, bruh.

-What?
-(Mack) Good point.

Louie, go get the urn.

-It's on the other boat.
-Nah, remember, we got two bruh.

(Gravel)
Always a plan B, right, Mack?

-Yeah, Good thinking.
-I'll grab it.

(muzak plays on phone)

(gear shift clunks)

Okay. Ready to go?

(Sam) Yep. Good to go.

(tractor starts)
(Gravel) Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait

You've got to take this.

Another urn?

Yeah, our brother.
Got to say goodbye.

-Oh, right.
-Lads, come together.

(tractor stops)

They do know you're not meant to
divide the ashes

into two urns, right?

-(Mack) Toks...
-Maybe it's another brother.

(Mack) ...the world's going
to miss a giant amongst giants.

A titan amongst titans.
A warrior, amongst...

Warriors.

This is worse than when
the Terminator did that

"Kindergarten Cop" movie.

(Gravel)
I just want you to know, lad...

I think that was actually
more believable.

(Gravel) ...I'll never forget you.

(Heather giggles)

(emotionally)
I can't. I just can't.

Um...

Thanks, mate,
for the memories, mate.

Dear friend.

I'll see you up there.

Where the heavens will accept you
as one of them!

Brother.

Toks. You were one of the good ones.

(ominous music)

Cai would just like to know,
who's changed his GPS to English?

sh*t. I forgot to change it back.

(hurriedly)
Go, go, go, go

(tractor starts)
Wait, wait. Hey!

Hey, what did he say
about the GPS?

Oh, something about
seeing you guys later.

(Stevie) No, no. He said that the GPS
unit was in English.

Louis, did you change it?

Nah.
(tense music)

Didn't your, ah... didn't your friend
take it off the boat?

What friend?

-Tall Guy?
-Yeah.

Man, typical. Useless dickhead.

-So how ya feeling now, Stevie?
-Well, I've felt better.

Do you think you're allergic
to chlorine?

-Huh?
-'Cause of all the showers.

Why don't we go
and watch the boat launch?

(rhythmic drumming)

(waves crash)

Lower the engine!

Lower the engine!

(Ed) Ok. I'm gunna jerk the boat
off the trailer!

Okay, get ready!

(tractor engine revs)

(upbeat music)

Help! Help!

(Ed) We gotta get in the water!
Need to turn the boat around!

-I think Ed needs your help.
-Turn the boat around!

-(Ed shouting) Turn the boat!
-Oh, sh*t bruh.

-My boat's gunna get washed up.

-I'm too sick. I can't.
-You're really no f*cking help, aye.

Faster!

-Turn the boat!
(Mack) All right, boys.

(indistinct shouting)

(Mack) Hey. What the f*ck
are we doing?

(boat creaks)
(waves crash)

-Come on. Around the other side.
-Let's go.

(indistinct shouting)

(boat engine revs)

Go!

(motor revs)

(gears clunk)
(motor revs)

(Sam) Thank you!

(Gravel) Nice bruh.

-There goes your brother.
-Yep.

(motor revs)
(Sam) Heeey!

(Gravel) That's a mean boat, bruh.
Maybe I should keep it?

(Mack) One job at a time, Toks.

(Mack) Thanks, Ed. Heaps.

(phone chimes and vibrates)

(message bleeps)

(phone chimes and vibrates)

-Thugga.
-Laundry's in the machine,

we can pick it up
as soon as it's clean.

Thugga, you are a poet.

-Am I?
-You rhymed.

Thanks.

(tense atmospheric music)

Hey, ah, what do you guys want to do
with the trailer?

Oh, I don't know.

Nah, you take it.
Aye, I've got some cash for ya.

It's all good, mate.
No worries.

Nah, seriously, take it, please.

(tense music continues)

Are you going to pick up
those guys later?

Yeah, um, we're just
going up the beach,

there's another entrance up that way.

Oh, Hukatere.

Yeah, yeah, that's it. Yeah.

(Gravel) Ed. Heather.
(car door closes)

Thanks for all the help.

What are they gunna do
with the boat?

Ahh, it doesn't matter.

Hukatere has one exit.

Whatever they got planned,

I don't think it's going to end
the way they thought.

-(Mack) We done it, boys.
-(Gravel) Owah!

Stevie still in the shower?

Home free, lads.
(chuckles)

("Very On" by Team Dynamite plays)

Hey, ah,
we still don't have the laundry?

-Semantics.
-Semantics?

Just put it in the camper
and we're good.

-Easy. Here's yours toko.
-Yeah, bruh.

-Cheers, boys.
-Aye.

(bottles clink)

Mmm.

(Mack) Where's Tall Guy?

Um, I'm gonna go call my girlfriend,
I can stop by his room.

(both snigger)

Louie's in love, bruh.
(both chuckle)

Aye, he only loves her
'cause she's got a credit card

-so she can buy him sneakers.
-Shut up, Mack.

Okay, hold on. I'll stop
by his room, aye?

(dark atmospheric music)
What?

(Carmen whispering)
The baby, Louie.

-I thought--
(Carmen) You missed it.

'Cause you're off doing
whatever you're doing.

Hey, you. You weren't due till--

Well the baby doesn't care does she?

She decided it was time
in the bloody living room.

(Carmen) Literally,
there was blood everywhere.

Are you okay? Is she okay?

Where's Jayden?

Calm down.

I'm fine. She's fine.
I'm alive.

It was just a tear
the medics delivered her.

I just feel like trash
and the rugs ruined.

(Louie) I'm so sorry, babe.
-You should be.

When are you here?

Like a day. I'm nearly done.

(sighs)

Wow.

I need you... to help choose a
name... and to clean the living room.

(Louie chuckles)
Okay, babe.

How is she?

She's beautiful.

(Louie) I'm sorry, babe.

Once this is done,

we'll have some cash.

-Be like maternity leave.
-I looked it up.

-It's paternity.
-Oh.

Whatever it's called,
'k, I'll be there.

Okay. Just another day or so.

(Louie) If you don't hear from me,
everything's okay.

Just driving.

I promise to call you when I'm done.

(baby cries)

I love you. I love you.
I love you. I love you.

I love you.
I love you. I love you.

(whispers) I'll see you soon.
(baby continues crying)

(Carmen) Hey, I've got to go.
-Okay.

(Carmen) Love you.

(line goes dead)

(dark music sting)

f*ck.

Argh!

Toby's peed inside.

Where are you, Tobe's?

Toby?

(calls) Toby?

(coos)
Ooh, hello. Did you pee in the house?

I left you inside for too long,
didn't I?

I'm sorry.

(Ed) Yes. Yes.

Hello. It's ah, Ed Ngakapua here.

Yes, Yes.

And this is
the third time I've called,

I just wanted to be clear.

Yes. Well, you have
the GPS coordinates, right?

And the others
will be at Hukatere.

And there's one entrance,
in and out, so...

Well, if you just sit on that road,
they'll come straight to you.

You'll get the whole lot
of them, all at once.

Look, look, we've done our part.
Now it's all up to you guys, okay?

Yeah, yeah. Well, it's nautical
miles to that spot on their GPS,

so at least a couple of hours.

(motor roars)

(tense music)

(muffled engine noise)

(motor revs)

(gears grind)
(motor revs)

(metal clangs)

(Jin groans)

(gears grind)

(engine idles)

(Sam strains)

(engine revs)

(Sam strains)

(laughs)

(all clamouring)

(all pant)

(gulping)

(vomiting)

(ominous music)

(coughing)

(yelps)

(coughing and vomiting continues)

Hey love. Love. What's...

What's wrong? You're all shaky.

No, no, I'm all right.

No, you're not. What's going on?

Just, um...

I just don't know
what we're involved in.

Well, don't you worry.

If we need to bury a body, we will.
(Heather chuckles breathlessly)

I don't need to bury a body, do I?

No, no, no, no, no, no,
no. It's nothing.

(car approaches)

It's something.

We had to call the cops.

Oh, really? That bad?

They turned up with a k boat...
Two urns.

There's another boat out at sea.
Like, who's on that boat?

Why did they call us?
I don't want to be involved.

Look, they asked you for help
'cause you would help them.

You'd help anyone.

Maybe if they were
just a little better

at doing whatever they're doing,

you'd be none the wiser.

I know, but what happens if--

Are they going
to get caught red handed?

Maybe. Yeah.

-There's only one entrance, so.
-Well, no one needs to know.

But you know what it's like
calling the cops around here.

Yeah, I know.
But I'm the only one that knows,

and I am of old.

Thank you.

You want a chocolate bicky?

I wouldn't bloody look like this
if I said no.

("Principle" by Team Dynamite plays)

(Tall Guy) Aah!
What's going on over here?

You know, just celebrating
the biggest deal of our lives.

(glasses chink)
f*ck.

-I mean, with the beer?
-Huh?

Didn't Thugga tell you no drinking
or dr*gs during the handover?

Yeah, but.

(sniggers)

(Tall Guy laughs loudly)

You guys are too serious.

Thugga goes a bit hard
on that sh*t sometimes, you know?

You got me, Bruh.

-Cheers, boys.
-Cheers, brothers.

(ominous sting)

(Tall Guy) We got heaps of things.

It looks like a legit
beach party, haha.

Louie wouldn't let me get fireworks
though 'cause he's a nana.

(walkie talkie bleeps)
Louie is a nana. Over.

Oi. Professional communication only.

Yeah. Someone at my school
lost an eye from a rocket.

-I told you that was why.
-Ahh, that's right, yeah

Can someone please shut the door?

I can't handle the smoke.

Lad's. We finally get to use these.

Bruh, where's the generator?

Louie, Where's the generator?

Ohh, I picked it up

and dropped it
off so many times. I lost track.

(walkie talkie bleeps)
Louie forgot the generator. Shame.

Hey, I said
professional communication.

-f*ckin' hell, you idiot.
-It's all good,

we'll just use the lights
from the Prado.

Ah, sh*t sh*t, sh*t.
(Mack) Hey, what is it now?

My f*cking... Marshmallow's on fire.

Burnt bits cause cancer
and that, you know?

Hey, stop messing around,
this is some serious sh*t.

Oi, I think that's a boat.

(faint engine noise)
(upbeat music)

Yeah, that's them I think.
The lights.

(gleefully)
Yeah, bruh. It is them.

(walkie talkie bleeps)
We have contact with the laundry.

I repeat, we have contact
with the laundry.

Uce. Youse two.

Turn the lights on,
Shine it out to sea.

Stevie, we're on!

(groans)
Okay. Okay.

(shouts)
Bro! Get up!

What are you waiting for?

Bro, you're driving them back up
to Auckland in the RAV .

(Louie) Hey, do you have the keys to
the Prado?

You don't need the keys
to turn on the lights.

-Oh, sh*t.
-f*cking hell.

(Louie) Hey, you don't need the keys
to turn on the lights.
(Mack) Bro, you better move.

(Mack) Get the f*ck up! Let's go!

(Tall Guy)
Yeah. Flick, flick it, Flick it.

(dramatic upbeat music)

(Stevie groans)

(engine roars)

(boat smashes
through the waves loudly)

Are they slowing down?

(engine roars)

Ohh, these dogs.
My f*cking boat again.

Who the f*ck is this guy?

(Gravel) f*ck! He's going to crash
into the beach.

(boat grinds on the beach)

(urgent music)

(Gravel) That's us, lads.
That's us.

(Mack) Get on there!

(Mack) f*cking hell! Move!

(Mack) Get out of my way!

He says, it's been a pleasure
to do business with you all.

(Mack shouts) Get on the boat.
Get that sh*t off.

(Mack) Make it quick.
(Gravel) Let's go. Let's go.

(Sam) Which car?

(Stevie) This car! Come on!

(exciting upbeat music)

(car starts)

Aye, just chuck it
over your shoulder, lad.

Imagine it's a hot chick. You know?

There's nothing about these
bags that feel like a woman.

No wonder you've only been with eight
chicks. Hurry up.

(Gravel) Siana,

(Mack) f*cking make it quick.

-Oh. sh*t. Who's that?
-(Gravel) Look natural. Look natural.

f*cking hell, it's just Stevie.

-Move. Come on.
-(Gravel) Let's go lads.

(Mack) I'm gunna go get the Prado
to make it easier.

(electronic atmospheric music)

Sorry.
I just had to get my medication.

f*ck. They're spilling everywhere.

sh*t.
There's holes in the bags, lads.

(Gravel) f*ck!

(Gravel) That's money, Bruh.
That's money.

(Tall Guy) Let's go, Louie.
Let's go, Louie!

Get it in there.

(Tall Guy laughs)

That's money, lad.

Let's go. Let's go, Louie.

(Mack) Come on. Come on.

Get out the way.

Ever seen so much?

It's crazy, bruh. Never.

It's unreal.

Bruh, just goes to show
how much you can actually sell.

(Tall Guy) Hey, I'll just check
we didn't miss anything, yeah?

Bro, you ain't going to find sh*t
we got everything here.

f*cking hell.

(chuckles)

Hey, I just found
a couple more bags you ball bags.

-(walkie talkie breaks up)
-f*cking hell.

(walkie talkie breaks up)

Aye, there's two more bags, numnuts.
(laughs)

Did he say there's more bags?

Didn't Thugga tell us
to bury half the score?

Yeah, just bury a couple.
Otherwise Tall Guy could tell on us.

Hey, you think Thugga sent him
to spy on us?

Why. Why you say that?

Bruh, he gave us sh*t
for having beers.

Nah, he's just f*cking around.

Yeah, there wasn't much there.
Just... $ million.

Hahaha.

Can't believe you Uces
weren't gunna check the boat.

Youse two go bury the stuff.

Just like Thugga said
to mark with the GPS.

Wait. Where's the--

Don't, tsk, tsk, tsk Relax.

Got it covered, yeah?

-Sweet, Uce.
-Oh, sh*t.

-Make it quick.
-sh*t.

(intriguing music)

Yeah. Better get a move on.

(engine starts)

-Police be armed, I reckon.
-Mmm.

Toby really liked Louie.

He's usually a really
good judge of character.

-He likes me best.
-Hehe... There goes that theory then.

(both chuckle)

How come people end up there?

It's circumstance. They got nothing.

This is something.

-We have to do something about Toia.
-Yeah.

(Heather) Tomorrow.

Who do you think, was
actually out there, at sea?

I have no idea.

But they got heaps of veggies now.
(Heather chuckles)

Veggie smugglers, I swear.

(dark music)

(chuckles)

(Tall Guy pants) Um...

Just gotta figure out how
this sh*t works.

(GPS bleeps)

Oh!

(Tall Guy chuckles) Sweet.

(dramatic music)

(indistinct police radio chatter)

No, no, no, no, no, no.

sh*t, sh*t, sh*t. Umm,

(Stevie) Ahh, f*ck!
The cops are going right for them.

Hurry up, man.

No, no, no.

Ah, go in my contacts and call Louie.

(phone rings)

sh*t. No answer. Call Mack.

We done it bruh, aye?
We brought in that laundry.

Now all we gotta do
is collect that paper, bruh.

(Tall Guy laughs)
(phone rings)

Aye? Stevie.

Must be a bum dial. Useless f*ck.

Thugga made it real clear.

No phone calls, only texts.

Imagine being in a car
with old sore guts for five hours.

f*ck.

Probably wanted to tell us
he found a new hotel

with an endless shower.

-Bruh!
-Geez, siana.

Oh aye, it's not that bad.

-What is that siana?
-Bruh, it's natural.

Well, there's nothing natural
about that, brother.

No answer. Call Louie again.

(tense music)

(phone rings)

Come on, Louie.

Pick up your phone!

Call him again.

(tense music continues)

(phone rings and vibrates)

("Amazing Grace" continues)

(Gravel)
What the f*ck is Louie up to?

Hurry up, brother. Move.

f*cking hell.

(phone rings and vibrates)

-Hello?
-Louie!

-Cops!
-What?

(Stevie) We just passed them.
They're heading straight for you.

I've been trying to call you
for f*cking ages, man.

Oh sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t,
sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t.

Oh sh*t.

Oh God. Oh God. Oh sh*t.

Oh sh*t.

-That was close.
-(Gravel laughs)

Move. Come on.

Oh sh*t.

(siren blares)
