01x06 - I Confess

Post by bunniefuu »

- Here, here, here, here.
- Confess, Kitty.

- Let go!
- Confess!

Come on, Shell.

We've got nothing else to do.
Now we're stranded.

I'm as responsible for
that boy's death as you are.

That's why I'm here.

Because we can't
run away forever.

You're all going to jail,
you f*ck!

Joseph!

- We're all guilty.
- No.

We're murderers.
Confess.

- Confess!
- No!

Did I k*ll Joseph, too?

I won't tell.

According to the log book,
we left him in the Philippines.

f*ck, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry I couldn't save her.

Perhaps your friends
didn't perish in quite the way

he's telling it,
assuming they really are dead.

My mom and dad are cool.

You can stay
as long as you like.

Candy, officer.
Candy.

Sell my candy, Officer.

OK, now.

Thank you, sir.
God bless you, sir.

Thank you.

Kitty! Kitty!

Help! Help! Help! Help!

- Kitty, where are you?
- Joseph!

Get off me!
Miss!

Miss, take my hand.

Kitty!

Why did you do that?

Please come with me.
Follow me, miss.

This is not a place
for tourists.

Go.

When we were
in the Philippines, um...

Aaron took me to the museum...

to see something
called the Manunggul Jar.

I think that's how you say it.

It's a, uh--

It's a kind of ancient
Filipino burial container,

and it depicts a boatman
taking the spirit of a dead man

to the afterlife.

If that's where Aaron is now...

I hope that boatman knows
what he's doing.

Because he wasn't
just my brother,

he was my captain.

And through fair weather
or foul,

he always knew
what he was doing.

He always had the answers.

♪ All the things
that I ran from ♪

♪ I now bring as close
to me as I can ♪

♪ Ripping hotel sheets
with gritted teeth ♪

♪ My montage of lost things ♪

♪ My shiny ♪

♪ Trinkets of grief ♪

- Get ready to tack.
- Yeah.

Tacking.

Good job.

OK?

Kitty.

Wait.

What are you doing?

That's Joseph's stuff.

Wait, Aaron.
Aaron, stop.

What are you doing?
It can't stay on board!

His family--

his family is going
to want some of this stuff!

What are we going to say
to them?

That he fell overboard
and we didn't sound the alarm?

That's exactly what happened,
wasn't it?

f*cking abandoned him.
No, no.

Aaron, stop.

I know it's cold, but
there's nothing we can do now.

Hey, this is difficult
for all of us, all right?

We're hungry, we're tired,
so let's just get to Palau,

re-up, and then we'll sail on
with no more incidents, OK?

"Incidents."

Ugh, this is so f*cking wrong.

Does everyone hate me?

Lana?

Hey.

You OK?

As soon as we're on dry land,
we're gone.

You coming?

Yeah.
Of course.

You know I'm in.

Start running the anchor!

We're drawing in.
Why are they dropping here?

No idea.

- Just this thing?
- Yeah.

Heinrich?

What's going on?
What are you doing?

Palau's in sight.

We're taking the tender
the rest of the way.

Why not sail into harbor?

You two can stay with
the boat and look after it.

What?

Since when did
she need looking after?

It's not my fault
they don't have passports.

Yeah, but if
you're taking the tender,

immigration isn't gonna
bat an eyelid.

No, this is about Joseph.

You think I'm going
to run to the police.

Look, we know you're
not happy about what happened.

No one is--
So we can't leave now?

You're going to lock
us in a cupboard,

like you did with him?

It's only a quick stop.

Parts, fuel, food, and water.

Soon, we'll be in the Solomons,

and you can do
whatever you want.

When everyone's cooled down.

This is bullshit.

Yeah. All right, fine.
I'll--I'll stay back till then.

No.

If you really don't trust them,

I'll stay aboard and
keep an eye on them for you.

Den, you're coming with me.

Aaron, I don't need
anything from shore.

There'll be more room
on the tender.

I want a paper trail
for those of us

who can actually have one.

That means we clear out,
go to immigration by ourselves.

We do everything by the book,
you included.

Since when
did we do it by the book?

Since Joseph.
Now get ready.

Heinrich, one more, mate.

- Champagne, miss?
- I'm OK. Thank you.

Al, thank you so
much for coming.

Oh, could I have some?
Thank you.

Do you really
think he's lying?

Or are you just
f*cking with me?

Do you think that that's OK?

The way they feel
about Aaron's death

is the way I feel about
Danilo de la Cruz.

That's the last funeral
I went to.

Joseph Melina was there,

and the girl from the photo
I showed you...

the girl you don't know.

Another stop
on the tourist trail.

Some like to take
another selfie.

They weren't.

Joseph wasn't like that.

Nice place.

Do you live here now?

Just staying
for a few nights.

Are you in a relationship
with Dennis Winbourne?

No.

Then why were you waiting
in Townsville?

It had to be something
in "The Blue."

But if not Denny or
any of the others, then what?

Peter?

Excuse me.

Perhaps your share

of the diamonds
from the trawler in Sagisag?

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

- Everything all right?
- Yeah, yeah.

The detective here was
just asking some questions,

and I didn't know whether
to talk without a lawyer or--

Questions?

At my son's funeral.

I don't know how you do things
in the Philippines,

but in Australia,
a funeral is a somber

and reflective affair.

This is my house,

so stop harassing
my family and friends,

and leave us to our grief!

My condolences.

Sir.

You just have to ignore him,
Lana.

He knows stuff.

Yeah?

Like what?

He's asking
if we're together.

Well, aren't we?

He said the--

the b*ll*ts fired on "The Blue"
all came from one g*n,

a revolver.

So?

Aaron's g*n was a revolver.

What are you saying?

I'm just trying to understand
what happened.

Because you said that

all the guys on "The Blue"
had a g*n.

So--

Right.

The b*ll*ts came
from Aaron's g*n...

because they took it out of
his hand

after they k*lled him.

Then they ran the others out.

On the deck.

They used it.

But you didn't tell me that.

Well, I didn't tell you
every gory detail,

but I can tell you how it all
happened, if you like.

No, no.
Stop, stop.

Yeah.
How they all died.

You think I want
this sh*t in my head?

No.
I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I know you find it hard
to trust people.

I've invited you into my home.

My family.
Yeah.

I don't know
what I was thinking.

I don't know--I don't know
what I was thinking.

I think--

I think I just hoped
that you were lying,

because then
Kitty would still be alive.

I wish I was lying.

But I'm not.

We have to trust each other,
Lana.

We are together, right?

Yeah.

Are you OK?

Yeah.

Um, come on.

We need to get going.

What?

This will buy us some time.

- What are you doing?
- I'm getting off this boat.

How?
We're too far from anything.

Not from that fishing boat.
He can take us inland.

No, that's still too far.

Fine.
Use a ring.

I'll put a life jacket on you,
and I'll pull you.

I know we can do it.

We just have to move so that

we do it before
that boat leaves

and before they get back,
OK?

Lana,
we don't have passports.

We don't have money.
We can't do this.

Yeah, we've got these.

But you--
you said you ditched them.

Denny and I kept them.
I should have told you.

We can get fake passport
in Palau, I think.

Denny said there were places.

We can get new names
and new birthdays.

Uh, I need you to jump,

and then tread water
like I showed you.

And then I will--
I'll pull you to the boat, OK?

I just need you to relax.

Stay calm.
OK?

And stay calm. Stay calm.

Calm...calm...

And I know it's scary.
It's really scary.

But anything is better
than staying on this boat.

You saw what they did
to Joseph.

Now they've trapped us here.
f*ck that.

f*ck that.

They're bad people...

they're bad people...
they're bad people...

But it's going to be fine.

It's going to be fine.
It's going to be fine.

It is.

OK?

I--

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Yeah?

OK.

OK.

Come on!

Come on, it'll be fine.
Don't be scared.

Kitty, you need to jump, now!

Come on! It's fine.
It's fine!

Look, it's safe.

Come on.
Get in.

- I can't.
- You can do it, you can do it.

I'm so sorry.
It's my fault.

What are you talking about?
Kitty, you need to jump.

You have to go right now.
You're better off without me.

No!
I'm f*cking not.

You can't--this--
this is crazy!

I k*lled Joseph.
It was me. It was me.

It was so dark,
and I must have just--

just--just lashed out,
like I did with Ma.

- It can't be.
- No, it wasn't.

It wasn't.
I'm a bad person.

And I don't deserve
to be saved.

This is Sandra talking!
Please! It's not real.

No, no.

You've got to go now, quick.
They're coming.

- Throw down the ladder.
- Go!

Kitty, I'm stuck
and trapped down here.

Throw down the ladder, please.
No!

I'm coming back up.

No.

- Coming back soon.
- No!

Kitty, throw the ladder!

I'm trapped!
No!

If Aaron sees me down here,
I'm dead.

I'm so sorry.

Kitty, don't f*cking do this!

I'm going to drown down here!

Kitty, no!
Please!

Kitty, I was just
trying to help us!

Kitty!

Kitty!

I'll meet--
meet you in Townsville.

I'll wait for you.

I'll wait.

Kitty.

You have got some ba*ls,
asking questions at a funeral.

- The girl came to me.
- About what?

She's worried that

Dennis Winbourne
might be lying.

And why would he do that?

Doesn't it strike you as odd

that a g*ng
of heavily-armed men

would use one small revolver
to carry out a m*ssacre?

I don't know, Colonel.

You see, we don't get a lot
of g*ng-related massacres

in northern Queensland.

And there's this young man

who also sailed on "The Blue,"
Joseph Melina.

According to his sister,
he is also missing.

Yeah, last seen
in the Philippines.

Maybe that's where
you should be looking.

My force is
doing exactly that.

I just don't understand
the willingness

to take Dennis Winbourne
at his word.

Because as far as I can see,

I mean, he's a good kid
from a good family.

Son of a Supreme Court judge.

We have a lot of good kids
from good families, too.

Look, cop to cop, I--

well,
I appreciate your diligence.

I really do.

But my superiors are satisfied

that we've done everything
we can at this end.

Do your superiors
include Peter Winbourne?

Salamat,Colonel.

Salamat.

Rhys.

You all right?

Yeah.

What were you dreaming about?

That looks nice.

So Emma, what was that
Filipino police officer

asking you about
at the funeral?

Uh, just the same old
questions, really.

Well, you did the right thing
calling me over.

I'm sure he'd like nothing
better than to shift blame

for Filipino crime onto us.

He told us about your friend
on "The Blue."

We're sorry for your loss.

But as for any problems
your friend might have had

back in the UK, well,

what's the point
of dredging up the past?

In light of everything,
just best to leave things be.

We have no secrets
in this family.

We made that mistake
with Aaron.

I'll--I'll be back in a sec.

Following us?

Us?

Must be nice to be around
people so rich and powerful.

Please leave us alone.

Lana.

Here's the thing.

I don't care what you did
before you came to Balakid.

I care about justice
for Danilo de la Cruz.

I already told you,
I don't know--

I don't know who that is.

Were you the ones
who took the ransom

from the trawler in Sagisag?

I just want to know the truth,

and maybe you do, too,

about what really happened
to your friend,

Kitty Walker.

I--

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

I've already told you
the truth.

Oh, God.

Oh, wow!

- Here, here, here.
- Oh, God.

Oh, my God.
Oh, oh!

Wonderful, Kitty!
Well done!

- It's a mess.
- Didn't know you could cook.

It's so good.

- Thanks.
- Uh-uh.

We always say grace
before we start.

You have got to be joking.

You may not
live here anymore,

but we're still a family, Lana,

and we don't have any secrets.

Confession is a positive thing.

I cannot believe
that you are still doing this.

Why don't you confess?
Here we go.

Yeah,
confess that you're a bully,

and you love making kids
feel like sh*t.

- Yeah, OK, yeah.
- Yeah.

God, Lana. Come on.
Just sit down.

You know what?
When you first came here...

Oh, shut up.

I thought, "How? How could
a woman abandon her child?

- Can we just eat?
- No!

If I'd given birth to you,

I'd have done
exactly the same thing.

No!
No!

- Come on, come on.
- Stop!

Get off her!

- Lana.
- Oi!

Put the ladder down.

Come on.

Where's Lana?

Heinrich, give it to Shell.

Is she below deck?

- Go?
- Yeah, go.

Lana?

She's gone.

What do you mean, she's gone?
Gone where?

When?

- Ages ago.
- When?

- I--I don't know.
- Where?

Where's she going, Kitty?
She jumped, so I don't know.

If she goes to the police--
if she goes to the police,

you know we have
to go after her, Kitty.

- No, no. She wouldn't do that.
- Just tell me.

- Hey, hey!
- Chill, chill, chill, chill!

- Shut the f*ck up.
- Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

Hey, she's just a girl, OK?

Denny, don't walk away.

Den!

Fuel boat should be here
any minute.

We have to be ready to move out
as soon as we can.

I, um--

f*ck!

Darling,
coffee's ready downstairs.

Yeah, I'm coming.

Do you want a coffee?

Yeah.

You know, if we had some cash,
we could get out of here.

Go wherever we want.

Cash.

Diamonds.

You still got them,
haven't you?

Don't.

Look, I'm not the one who
should have trust issues here,

all right?

You ran on me, remember?

But I came back.

Denny, what was the
last thing Kitty said to you?

What?
Why?

I just need to know.

All right.
Um--

It was while we were
making dinner.

She was talking about you.

She was saying how much
she missed you.

But you didn't get a chance
to speak to her after that?

No.

I wish I had.

And there was no way
that you could have salvaged

any of the bodies at all?

No.
I told you, I was hiding

and then I saw my chance

and I hopped in the tender
and just--

Is everything all right?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Put some clothes on, Dennis.

Chief Inspector Craven's here.

She'd like to speak
to both of you.

I've already
answered their questions.

So answer them again.

Be courteous.

Stick to the facts.

Um, we're having trouble

identifying this Jessica Davis
who made the distress call.

Mm-hmm.

Well,
there's no one that matches

the description you gave us

on any of the missing persons
lists.

Well, she wasn't
on board for long, so--

I know she was British.

Haven't we been over this,
Detective?

You're right, Your Honor.
I'm sorry.

Lastly, Emma,
you didn't know her?

No, um00

It's a shame.
You'd have gotten on.

It's my understanding that
this girl only came on board

in the Solomons, weeks after.

Oh, please.
Please, wake up.

- Please.
- Wake up!

Um--

Come on.
Kit, I--

- Wake up!
- I think--

- Come on!
- Kit.

- Wake up, please!
- Kit.

Mum.

Please.

Oh, God.
She's dead.

I'm so sorry.

Kit.

Kit, come on.

I'm so sorry.

It's OK.
It's OK.

Do you--
let's--

um, you should go,
just wait out there.

Um--

sh*t.

What if people
don't believe--

what if people don't believe
it was an accident?

Lana, Lana, I didn't mean to.

I know, I know.

- I didn't mean to.
- I know.

It was an accident.

What about you, Aaron?

What are you going to do
when you finally go back?

I'm going to go put flowers
on Helen's grave.

You don't have to.
Why make yourself miserable?

Because I'm already
miserable, Denny.

What about you, Denny?

I don't see why we
have to go back at all.

We're in the clear,
no more dramas.

Why can't we go back
to how it used to be?

Yeah.

That f*cking song.

I'll go.

Kitty.

You OK in there?

- Kitty.
- Leave me alone!

Kitty, put the music down
and let me know you're OK.

Talk to me. I just want to know
you're all right.

f*cking hell, fine.

I'm fine!

And I'm not coming
to Australia.

OK.

Then what do you want to do?

I can't keep running.

Running from what?

What?

Why don't you open the door,

and we can talk about this
face-to-face?

Kitty.

Whatever it is
you're running from,

it's never as bad as you think.

- It is, and Denny knows.
- Denny knows what?

Why?

Why are you pretending
that you care?

I do care!

- No, you don't.
- I do.

It's been a difficult time
for everyone.

We're just all tired
and just want to get home.

I know you must miss Lana.

And I'm sorry
she abandoned you.

But I'm here, and I care.

Can you open the door, please?

Lana was wrong
to leave you, too.

No.

It didn't happen like that.

That night when--

Joseph. I--
I, uh--

I pushed Joseph.

I pushed him
and that was my fault.

No.
No, no, no, no.

And now he's gone.

- He could have fallen in.
- No, he didn't.

I pushed him.
Or jumped in.

It's my fault.

Hey, hey.

I'm here.
OK?

It'll all seem better
in the morning.

It's all my fault.

No.

Are you a smoker?

No.

Good girl.

I just couldn't sleep,
so I thought

I would go for a walk
and clear my head.

That's dangerous.

Attractive woman like yourself,
late at night.

Still, I wouldn't want you
to feel like a prisoner.

Give me a call if you
need me to pick you up.

Thank you.

Um, I'm sorry.
I--

I didn't mean to listen,

but I just heard what you said
to Shell before,

about Joseph.

- I don't--
- No, no.

- I don't want to--
- No, it's--it's fine.

- I don't--
- It's fine.

Listen, it--

He can't have died
how you think.

That night,

I carried you in here myself
before it happened.

You couldn't even stand up.

And he was still on deck,
alive.

So there's no way
you pushed him.

I have to be on watch
the whole night, so...

I'm going to try
to sleep a bit.

You should try the same.

f*ck.

How could you do this to me,

when you knew
what I was going through?

What?
Wait, do what?

You--you told me that I--

pushed Joseph when I didn't.

I--
look, hey.

Kitty, it's OK.

You're confused.
OK?

Don't touch me!

OK.

I'm not touching you.

See?

It's OK.

It was you.

Lana.

I need to talk to you.

All right.

Come in.

You were right.
He's lying.

Denny's lying about everything
and I think he's dangerous,

so I need your help.

I'm going to have a drink.
Do you want one?

Yes.

Yeah, f*ck it.
I'll have one.

Police! Police!

Last location.

Sir...

It's very brave
for you to come here.

Thanks.

But you don't have
to worry anymore.

I can help.

Ah.

Now tell me everything.
