The cash was a buy-in
to a card game.
Park was the
public face of Dellagua.
I'm a public face
of Dellagua too.
Have you received any threats?
Who's Lars Hansen?
To you?
He's a friend when
no-one else was.
When I asked you if he was
downloading any confidential files,
you denied any knowledge of it.
Jesus!
What's that?
This is a good time.
Joanne. It's been a while.
If it's left up to me,
another years are gonna go by
and nothing will have changed.
That shed belongs to Pharrell.
The worse possible thing
that can happen to a person
happened to me,
and you did that.
I've seen that car.
Damford showed me.
Hey! Jesus! AMANDA: I
f*cking trusted you!
Amanda!
Did I freak you out?
Yeah.
You did.
But it's alright.
I forgive ya.
Don't.
Don't do that.
Agh!
Those assholes at the bar,
they pushed you pretty hard.
Hell, I pushed ya.
Yeah. And when I get pushed,
this... this is who I am.
You know, Damford...
..he thinks you keep
that car as a trophy.
But it don't look
that way to me.
I don't care what
your new tattoo says.
I asked Lars to get that car back
from the cops, keep it for me.
Seems... a bit of a
f*cked-up thing to agree to.
I WAS a f*cked-up thing.
I am.
We belong to a special
club, Lars and I.
When he was 18, off
his head on shots,
he drove his car into a tree...
..and his best friend went
straight through the windscreen.
Very dead.
Not a scratch on Lars.
Somehow he was able to believe
that he was worthy of forgiveness,
and he tried to
convince me I was too.
"We're all worthy.
"We all deserve to live,
no matter what we've done."
You know, "We have to forgive
ourselves," blah, blah, blah.
And then he goes and walks right
into the jaws of a f*cking crocodile.
What am I supposed
to do with that?
You prove that it
wasn't his choice.
I mean, even if it was
deliberate, it still doesn't...
Stop!
Don't you take advantage of me
because I'm hungover
and snake-f*cked, OK?
You're tougher than you know.
To come back here.
To this place.
Could have stayed away.
But then how would Joanne
Freeman have found me?
Don't worry, she
didn't have a go at me.
It was much worse than that.
Go home, Ted.
You've got people who love you.
Yeah.
I ran away.
Tsk.
They realised that before I did,
so...
So you take a late-night
dip in the river.
You alright, Conkaffey?
I'll be five minutes tops.
Hey, Jo, you're...
Jo...
You all good?
Yeah.
I feel like I've eaten
a bucket of sand.
Welcome to your
first real hangover.
Eat.
Snake-f*cked?
How's this work?
Prick the skin.
Just one drop, straight
into the bloodstream.
Oh, man, I gotta get home and get
out of these clothes. They stink.
I washed that shirt.
Once.
I'll get it back to you.
I'd offer to give
you a ride, but...
And, hey...
..try not to consume
all the evidence.
Hi.
You've reached Kelly.
It's your turn, baby.
Leave Mum
a message, please!
Hey, Kelly. Please
don't delete this, OK?
I'm not calling to
harass you or...
..plead my case.
Just hear me out?
You were right to call
things off. I, uh...
I'm a mess.
And you kept trying
to tell me that.
Uh...
I didn't wanna hear it.
So...
..thank you for hanging in
there as long as you did.
I guess that's it, really.
Um...
Sorry I wasn't there.
Just tell Lilly...
Just tell her I love her, OK?
OK.
Look, something's
been bugging me.
Uh...
You and Park worked
so closely together -
why would he come to me if he
had a problem instead of you?
No idea.
He was certain marine
life were being harmed.
Does that ring any bells?
No.
Don't you think that's odd?
Well, maybe he thought I
wouldn't support a shutdown?
I mean, he knew how determined
I was to meet the launch date.
Yeah, but he trusted you.
I mean, you shared a vision.
Something's about to derail
that and, what, he...
..he just
doesn't mention it?
Maybe you already knew about it.
Maybe that's why
you made the decision to search
the hard drives by yourself
before bringing them in here.
If there is a problem, it
will be on those drives.
Unfortunately not.
Plenty about deep-water mine testing,
but zero mention of contamination.
I don't believe he would
have destroyed that evidence.
So, either it's hidden away
somewhere yet to be found...
..or you already are in
possession of that data.
Eomma?
It's my fault your
father is dead.
It's my fault.
We came here because of me.
I was unfaithful.
I failed.
As a mother and wife.
I've recently been involved
with some people.
I didn't know much about them,
but they are dangerous people.
Criminals.
How's the head?
Exacting its revenge.
Mm.
Oh, no, you hold
onto that, would you?
Look underneath.
It's a batch number.
Yeah, I'd... I'd say so.
Why would Lars scratch a batch
number onto Daisy's collar?
You think Lars might have
taken venom before he died?
What?
Think about it.
Lars was in an altered state.
sh*t, he'd taken
off all his clothes.
Overheated.
Just like you last night.
Uninhibited.
Couldn't care less there
was a croc in the water.
He'd have easy
access to the stuff.
No. No, he wouldn't.
But you didn't wanna believe that he
was an animal smuggler either, so...
..let's just try to
keep an open mind here.
Lars wouldn't take venom.
Not willingly.
Maybe he didn't have a choice.
And how would that
work? I don't know.
Maybe they wanted
to get rid of him.
Or he was trying to work up
his courage to take that swim.
If that's really what he wanted, then
why wouldn't he take the whole dose?
Who's to say he didn't?
I... I didn't think
anyone was home.
Haven't you done
enough to my family?
I promise you...
..Jong Min and I were
colleagues, nothing more.
Don't insult me.
What is it you're looking for?
We were working on
something together and it...
He made a copy of it.
He put it somewhere
safe. I need to find it.
Get out of my house.
I want to show the
world who Jong Min was.
You are cruel and a liar.
Leave. Now!
Hey.
Hey.
Thanks.
Oh, wow.
Hey, does it hurt,
getting a tattoo?
Uh... Sometimes.
Not always.
Depends on where you get
it, who gives it to you.
A bunch of variables.
So, did you, uh...
..did you learn to
do it in prison?
Yeah.
I want one.
But... with this.
Do you know how to?
Yeah, you just, uh...
You mix some of the
ashes in with the ink.
Sorry, um...
Do you think it's messed up?
To want that?
Nah.
A lot of people do it.
Just another way to
keep someone close.
Here.
This was on the car.
They might be his last words.
OK.
How're you doing?
You need a break?
Uh... No, no.
The pain is good. It, um...
It actually helps.
It's good to feel
something, right?
Is that why you do it?
Sometimes.
It's like a... release.
In theory.
Doesn't always work, though.
Yeah, I don't...
I don't have that.
Koreans, we're taught to keep
our true feelings hidden.
Whatever's going on,
you just have to...
..push it down.
It's our way of dealing with
the realities in our lives
so we can survive, but...
..it can burn and eat
away your insides.
That sounds familiar.
We even have a name for it.
We call it, um...
..'hwa byeong'.
It means 'fire sickness'.
If the fire burns inside
us long enough, it can...
..make us implode.
Well, you can do that
here if you need to.
Just let me know first, yeah?
And I'll move the needle.
Yep.
OK.
Did you get a look at
the driver? Recognise the car?
Uh-huh. A four-wheel drive.
Black or dark green maybe.
I... I didn't see the face.
Curious why you decided to
call me and not the police.
You don't trust your
local law enforcement?
I called you because
you're new enough in town
not to have vested interests.
Somebody...
..from Dellagua tried to run you off
the road - is that what you think?
You know what? This was a mistake.
I should have called a cab.
I'm really sorry that
I dragged you out here.
Why don't you just cut the
sh*t and you tell me the truth?
Mm? No?
Alright, I'll give it a shot.
You lied when you said
you were Park's lover.
You had some other reason
for meeting up at a shitty
hotel late at night.
My guess is that reason is
on one of Park's drives.
That's the one you
can't find yet, right?
It's important enough of you to
break into Yoon Sun's house for it.
And it's dangerous enough that
somebody's coming after you.
Who else have you told?
What's on the drive?
Who else?
You know what?
I think you better
call that cab.
Jong Min designed a prototype
for Dellagua to mine metal
deposits on the ocean floor.
Our initial testing was positive,
it was... minimal impact, and so...
..we decided to cut deeper.
We discovered that the
marine life were bleeding.
They were developing lesions.
We had released something
and... and it poisoned them,
and this is the only
evidence I have right now.
Jesus.
Jong Min took it to our CEO,
but Roy insisted on burying it.
So Jong Min brought it to me.
We were working together...
..gathering data
so that we could prove that Dellagua
were willing to destroy the ocean
to get what they wanted.
So...
..Dellagua would rather
deal with the litigation
than have the company blow up
before it even got started.
That's why Jong Min and I
met at night at the hotel.
When were you planning
on blowing the whistle?
The day after Jong Min died.
Anybody else know what
you two were up to?
What about Dellagua? They have any
enemies? Anybody wanna take em down?
Oh, there were ecowarriors
in the early days.
Any mention of mining
gets people excited.
Wayne Druff was the ringleader.
He's passionate
but... innocuous.
Druff's Adventures? You
mean the crocodile guy?
Yeah.
I'll take you home.
After another boat?
More... bird watching?
Should have been up-front, mate.
I'm not so keen on liars.
Neither am I.
Last time we spoke
you mentioned something about
things being a little off.
Changes in the river. Maybe
animals behaving strangely.
That's my office. Every day.
Something shifts, I'm
the first to see it.
Any idea what might be
causing those changes?
You wanna ask me about
Dellagua, just ask.
I'm not into all this
p*ssy-footing around.
Fair enough.
You're here because I kicked
up a stink about them, right?
Right.
b*stards shouldn't be
mining in the ocean.
Anything I can do to stop
that, I'm gonna do it.
Selfish rich pricks.
Must be kinda tough, your
son dating Park's daughter.
Not her fault what he does.
What he did.
You think I knocked him off.
sh*t.
What, Dellagua tell you that?
That's how they're gonna
get me to shut up, is it?
That'd be right.
You're looking for a bad guy,
start here.
That should give you
plenty of people to harass.
And you tell Roy Gilpin I've got
a special croc picked out for him.
He's on my list.
No surprise Olivia thinks
Dellagua would want to k*ll her.
I've got something
else for you too.
You wanna know why Twist
was at the Dellagua launch?
He's an investor in her company.
Big time.
How big?
A million, maybe more.
Worlds collide, huh?
You think he k*lled
Park. Do you?
Well, a million bucks
worth of motive.
He's tight with Roy, so he probably
heard Park was getting cold feet.
Means wouldn't be difficult.
Any blunt instrument would work.
An opportunity.
It's a small town. He
knows what Park looks like.
Probably knows
where he lives too.
If Twist did take out Park...
..it makes sense he'd
also move against anybody
that might jeopardise
his cash flow.
Hm.
He's smuggling.
Yeah.
Like a pilot who asks
too many questions.
If he didn't m*rder Lars himself,
then he sent Bryce to do it.
I don't know.
But I wanna find out.
Maybe I should ask them.
In public. Daytime hours. Relax.
'Relax', she says.
I moved that
merchandise of yours.
Oh, yeah? Yeah.
Where'd you find a buyer?
Does it matter?
I'm here to talk business.
I'm listening.
I believe you two
know each other.
Hey, mate.
Can I get you a beer?
Uh...
I'm here for the conversation.
Man, I wrote myself
off the other night.
Why do backpackers always seem to
get their hands on the good sh*t?
And THIS good sh*t?
It was snake venom.
Blew... my... mind.
Looks like your stuff.
I asked the guy where he got it
from, but he wouldn't tell me.
He was protecting his source.
I just wanted to tell you
that if you ARE the source
you can trust me
not to say anything.
And if it's not you...
..then this guy stole it from you,
and I thought you should know.
I never sell venom for
recreational purposes.
That's what I suspected.
Did you and Lars share
a taste for this stuff?
I don't, uh... share
that taste with anybody.
It is a, uh...
..private predilection.
Why do you ask?
Because I think Lars was
on the stuff when he died.
Tell me about this backpacker.
Uh... He found me in the bar. Saw
my tatts. Put two and two together.
Hm.
What'd he look like?
Hmm...
I mean, they all
kinda look the same.
And the bar was
noisy and crowded,
and I didn't want to
eyeball him too long.
You know how dealers get.
Mm.
Well...
..if you, uh... see him again...
Oh, absolutely.
Uh... I've gotta go.
I've got cases to
solve, gentlemen.
Yoon Sun...
..I think I owe you an apology.
The other day, Amanda
and I suggested
that your involvement
with those men
may have led to your
husband's death.
I think we were
wrong about that.
I'm sorry.
You didn't come here
just to tell me that.
You know this guy?
Recognise him?
Jong Min invited him over
for dinner once, maybe twice.
His name is Ezra Cole.
Otherwise known as Twist.
Friend of his?
It wasn't social.
This Cole...
..he's a pretty major
investor in Dellagua.
Any idea what those
dinners were about?
They never discussed
business in front of me.
But Jong Min never invited
people from work to our home.
Mm.
Must have wanted
something from him then.
I don't know what that would be.
I think he was looking for help.
Help in taking Dellagua down.
Why would he try to stop them?
Because he believed that the
work that they were doing
was causing some serious
ecological damage.
So, Park and Olivia were
acquiring the evidence
they needed to blow the whistle.
That's why she wanted
those hard drives so badly.
And that's why they were meeting
late at night at that hotel.
Dellagua had Jong Min k*lled?
I can't prove that yet.
But what I do know...
..is that your husband was
a deeply honourable man.
You were right.
Honourable and...
very courageous.
Thank you.
Jong Min's favourite.
A collector's item, apparently.
He was the only one that
would drink from it.
Would you join me?
Oh, I'd love to.
But, uh...
..I think I've had enough.
You won't mind if I...
No, please.
By all means.
Mm!
Pretty clever.
Hm.
Cool place you've got here.
Did you sell venom to Lars?
Yeah.
Yeah, I did.
Same way as I sold it to you.
I've regretted it every
single day since he died.
If only I hadn't, you know...
..things might have
turned out so different.
Must have OD'd.
Freaked out.
Jumped in the water.
Could have sworn he was clean.
Guess he fell off the wagon.
It's a real shame too.
Seemed like a decent bloke.
Just goes to show...
..gotta be careful, eh?
Twist didn't know you were
dealing his stuff, did he?
I didn't know that
you knew Twist.
It's a small town.
Mm.
I nicked a couple
of vials from him
one night after I'd had a few.
Seemed like a decent way to
earn a little extra cash.
Nobody saw me, though.
And I appreciate you...
..not telling him
where you got it.
Did Lars know you stole it?
Is that why he
asked you for some?
No.
Why?
Because he scratched a serial number
off a vial on his dog's collar.
That's pretty weird,
don't you think?
Lars had a sh*t memory.
Yeah, was always scribbling
stuff down on whatever was handy.
Twist used to get at
him all the time for it.
He was always f*cking up batch
numbers and messing up paperwork.
So...
..no, not that weird.
I miss Lars too.
We were mates.
We should talk about
going into business.
I reckon I could find
something for you.
Yeah, sounds good.
Oh, hey, pro tip -
next time you're thinking about
dipping into your own supply...
..you might want
to take it easy.
That stuff will k*ll ya.
Interesting conversation
at the Shark Bar.
Yeah, I'm always up for some
interesting conversation.
Hm.
I have some information
about Lars's death.
You pulled on that
nasty little thread.
I know who k*lled him.
It's an intimate thing to talk
about the m*rder of a mutual friend.
Calls for a more...
intimate setting.
Don't you think?
My partner knows I'm here.
Of course!
After you.
Here she is.
We were just talking about you.
Well, you know what they say -
the only thing worse than
being talked about...
Bryce is a good worker.
Wants to know all
about what's going on.
He has ambitions to
become ambitious.
Don't ya, mate?
Only I've been remiss.
I didn't realise just how...
..interested you
were in... venom.
If you'd wanted some, mate,
you should have just asked me
instead of helping yourself.
Wh-what? What?
It was just once.
It was a stupid mistake.
It won't happen again.
Want to take some more now?
No, no.
No, I'm all... all done.
No. Thanks.
Mm.
You know how to milk a
snake. You've seen me do it.
Choose one you like.
Grab it by the back of the head.
Little bit of pressure
on the hinges of the jaw.
Away you go.
I'll get you a vial, OK?
Here we go, come on.
I... I don't... I...
Really, I don't...
I don't want any.
It's fine.
Look, if something happens, you're
in a room full of antivenom, OK?
With a bloke who knows
just how to use it.
Hey, man, enough.
I... I shouldn't have done it.
I'm... sorry.
I'll pay you back and...
and... and we'll be square.
Don't keep her waiting.
Come on.
f*ck!
f*ck!
Jesus!
Argh!
Agh!
You should have
paid more attention.
Jesus f*ck! are you happy now?
I played your little f*cking
game! Now give me the antivenom!
Ow!
No, I'm not happy, Bryce.
Why don't you tell us exactly
what happened with Lars?
You f*ck' b*stard.
f*ck!
Lars was snooping around.
He shouldn't have been here.
How long you
been nicking vials?
Mate, it's nothing.
Don't worry about it.
Twist won't see it as nothing.
Ah, Lars!
What do you want to stay quiet?
What do you want? Cash?
He'll find out.
He hasn't yet.
Well, when it all goes to sh*t, I
know whose side I'd rather be on.
Well, uh... in that case...
..I guess you'd just better keep
your f*ck' mouth shut then.
Nice day for it.
You picked the wrong side, mate.
He had a family. Kids.
f*ck you!
Give it to me, man. Please.
Help him.
Where is it? Where'd you put it?
Alright, he's had enough now.
You're gonna k*ll him.
Argh!
Think of this as, um...
..a gift.
This isn't what I want.
Hm.
He's got about five minutes.
You can't leave him like
this. Where are you going?
Hey.
It's done.
What's it look like?!
Hey! Hey! The antivenom!
What does it look like?!
Christ!
You OK?!
He's been bitten.
Twist made him do it.
He k*lled Lars.
This guy?
Did you call them?
I called an ambulance.
Get off me! Are you serious? Damford,
I didn't f*cking do anything!
Alright, alright.
OK. Hang on. Stop.
You guys, come on! I
didn't f*cking touch him!
She didn't know what
this guy was gonna do.
That's as*ault police. Get
him the f*ck outta here!
I'm not f*ck' getting in
that car! You gonna arrest her
you arrest me too.
f*ck you! f*ck you!
Give it time, mate. Give
it time. I'm not getting...
I'm not getting in
the f*cking car!
f*ck you! Hey, hey!
f*ck you! THIS is as*ault.
This is as*ault.
This is on you, mate.
You wanna run around playing
policeman? You put her here, not me.
Man, look at her.
Get her out of here!
You can't arrest her like this.
You've gotta have her
medically assessed.
You got nothin', pal. Nothin'!
I've got a convicted m*rder*r
standing over another dead body.
I got something.
I'm gonna need a
statement from ya,
so get your arse back
down to the station.
Don't make me come
looking for you.
What are you doing here?
Working on my tan.
What have you taken?
f*ck you.
Yeah, well, f*ck you
and f*ck Pharrell.
You know, she can't
talk like that.
Like it's a game.
You mean Amanda, at the bar?
I've been good, you know,
all of this time. I have.
She opens her mouth,
brags about what she did.
Yeah?
You alright?
It wasn't supposed
to happen like that.
But she did it.
She still did it.
What was supposed to happen?
Huh?
She crashed the party.
We taught her a lesson.
What did you do to her?
What'd you do?
We put it in her drink.
You put what?
What did you give her?
Hm?
That jury is gonna have a
f*cking field day with you.
Is your daughter around?
I'd love to talk to her.
Get off my property.
You come back and
I'll knock you out.
What's your gut tell you?
We made a mistake.
Amanda!
