[bunniefuu]

Can you tell her to stop
lurking out there?

Please.

You coming to school?

Listen, you don't
have to go to school.

Might be better than...here.

My babies.

Al?

Alan?

I'm going to work.

Why?

..as well as extra...

Olive.

-Lucinda!
-Morning, everyone.

Ioane's acting principal.

Well, I'm here.

Uh...

We'll need an all-staff meeting
at 8:30.

-Of course.
-Uh...

We'll have the wellbeing team
at 9:00.

Can you please make sure there's
more counselling available?

And...and I'll address
the school at 11.

Can you think of anything else?

Uh, the police
haven't been able

to speak to Gus
since Friday night.

No-one's seen him.

Ioane, have you seen him?

No.

OK. Well, we're gonna
have to find him.

He's going to need
some support.

Hey, maybe we don't
go out tonight, hey?

Probably not.

-Right. Respectful.
-Yeah.

Uh, do you two need to be here?

Um, I will show you
where the tearoom is.

I only got three weeks with him.

And now he's gone.

I don't even know if it counts.

If what counts?

Oh, right.

Well, we just...

We just got started and then...

..we got distracted
and then the cops came

and, you know...

Well, did he finish?

I think so?

I'm not sure.

Did you?

Maybe.

Almost.

How do you know?

How do you know?
How do you know you finished?

I don't think I've ever...

No, it's OK.

It still counts.

Guys.

It's OK, it's OK.

It's gonna be OK.

Just gotta get
through the day, guys.

Just gotta get through...today.

Uh, actually, I wanted
to say something.

I, uh...I shouldn't have had
the party, because then...

Brendan, no.

I...I gave him the pills.

Yeah, and some dickhead
called the cops.

This is not on you, George.

But the last thing
I also said to him was,

"I'd rather go gossip
about your d*ck."

Yeah, exactly.

Yeah, yeah.
No, I understand.

And we'll definitely be
in touch if we hear anything.

Police?

What do they want?
I already did the interview.

They want to ask Gus
some questions.

He still hasn't
spoken to the police?

-That f*ck'...
-Mo!

They asked if you could
get in touch

if you have any idea
where he is.

Why would I know where he is?

They'd be asking
all his friends.

He's not my friend.

It's his fault we were up there
in the first place.

Mo.

Where are you going?

Uh, did you just...

Yeah, well, they'll come back
if it's important.

Good morning, everyone.

This is a very difficult day
for our school community.

I thought you weren't
coming in today.

-You guys seen Gus?
-He's not here.

..we tragically lost
a Year 11 student.

-Tully Prichard...

..was
a talented athlete...

Who is that?

..and a much-loved
young man who enriched...

We all grieve differently,
Priya.

The library is open...

..for anyone who needs
a quiet place to be alone

or gather with friends.

Please know that
the school is here for you.

Mo.

-I am so sorry.
-What?

..to be alone
with your thoughts

and an additional...

An additional member
of the wellbeing team

will be, uh...

Guys?

Uh, guys,
face the front, please.

Face the front.

Guys? Everyone?

Thank you.

Gus!

Hold your horses!

-What is it?

I'm looking for Gus.

Do you know where he is?

No, I said I'm looking for him.

The police were here.

You are his mate, yeah?

He's not in any trouble. Just
tell him he can come home.

-I said I don't...
-Please.

-I don't...
-Just tell him he can come home.

Ok. Ok, ok.

Big night, tiger?

You alright?

See ya, mate.

Doesn't make sense.

He's so fast.

Please, Maya. No.

I just keep thinking
if I'd gone with them,

it could have gone differently
or...

Sorry.

What should we do
for the memorial?

"Outstanding young athlete.

"Treasured member
of the school community."

He didn't even care
about that stuff.

Well, what would you say?

That Tully would be embarrassed
by all this.

George, you could
play something.

Yeah, you should, babe.

I don't think I want to.

We could print out photos, share
our favourite memories of Tully.

If you put it in the group chat,
I can put them all together.

What?

Are we supposed to use
the same group chat or...

It is a good idea, Priya.

Thank you, Brendan.

Ooh, we should make T-shirts
with his photo.

I actually know someone
who could do them for us cheap.

Of course you do.

Well, you know
I have a very wide network.

Yes. Please.

Mo, what do you think?

What?

Sure.

Have you ever been
to a funeral?

Um, I don't know
anyone who's died.

Well...I didn't.

Yeah.

You'll think of something.

For the memorial.

-Me?
-Yeah.

We trust you, Kate.

Lou?

Lucinda?

Oh, Lou.

These 32. Indigo only.

That's very specific,
Kitty.

Get painting, please, Puppy.

Not, like, a nice cobalt
or, like, azure?

Indigo.

Here he is!

OK, so I wanted you all here
because...

I can order one
for everyone who wants one.

It may not be his best angle.

Um, is there something wrong
with his eye?

Priya, that's a lovely thought.

"Death is not extinguishing
the light.

"It is putting out the lamp
because the dawn has come."

What the f*ck does that mean?

It's...

..profound, Maya.

What does it have to do
with Tully?

What is wrong with you?

I'm sick of everyone pretending
they knew him best.

I know you've known him forever,
of course. I was...

Tully wasn't
who you all thought.

It was hard for him.

And it's like there's
some conspiracy

to not even talk about it.

Not talk about what?

If it really was an accident.

What are you saying?

You know, Kate.

All that football star sh*t...

You don't know what
you're talking about.

-He hated it.
-You weren't even there.

You didn't see it.

Well, what'd you see?

Why won't you tell us
what you actually saw?

Bit intense for me.

I'm gonna go get some air.

Oh, babes.

Hello?

It's Maya.

Um, I brought some more food
from Mum.

Oh, that's... That's good.

Are you OK?

I mean, of course not.

Mmm.

Mmm.

It's good.

Feels like he's gonna
walk in here at any minute.

Hmm.

I should go.

That's his shirt.

Oh, I'm sorry, I...

No, that's... That's OK.

I always thought you two
would end up a couple.

Four.

Hmm?

No, you were five.

Five years old.

He thought the world of you,
Maya.

Thank you.

Um, are you coming
to the memorial tomorrow?

Um...

Those mine?

Thank you.

And just say thanks
to your mum from me.

Oh, f*ck.
f*ck, f*ck, f*ck, f*ck, f*ck.

Hey.

You need anything?

No.

What the f*ck, man!

This isn't funny.

Come on, man, say something.

Why'd you go?

Do you think the tan?

And you...you can wear
the navy pants.

I guess we're supposed
to be wearing black,

but I don't suppose
it really matters, does it?

I mean, we can wear
what we want.

Who the f*ck's gonna tell us
otherwise, right?

What'll we dress him in?

What? What?

I can't say goodbye to him
so many times.

I'm really sorry, Kate.

Everyone left after your
stupid little tantrum.

The whole point
I did this entire thing

was so we could have
something to do together.

I know.

I'm really sorry.

Um, we're here now, though.

Still think the T-shirts
were better.

He should be here with us,
though, you know?

Like, finishing school
and growing up.

And doing all the things
that we were going to do.

He's gone, Kate.

No, he's still with us.
He's still in us.

He was definitely in me.

What the f*ck
are you doing?!

Um...

I guess all I wanted
to say was...

..I think everyone
who knew Tully...

..was in love with him.

Or maybe only I was.

You know the way
he really looked at you?

Like he saw who you were?

I mean, he was gonna
be successful,

but he didn't act
like that at all.

Because...

Because I think...

..he loved us back.

So even if we all knew
a different Tully,

we have that in common.

Feeling...lucky
to have even known him.

Tully Prichard...

..was an extraordinarily
gifted athlete

and a loyal friend
to many of us.

He was a leader.

He was emblematic
of the potential

we see in all our students,

because he had the world
at his feet,

securing an A-League contract
with the Wanderers,

a proud first for Jubilee High.

Losing a friend like this...

..it doesn't make any sense.

I'm not going to
pretend it does.

It's OK, babe.

I know what I saw.

It was an accident, OK?
