Post by bunniefuu »

Rev, if we don't pull this off,

they're gonna k*ll you.

- You get that, right?
- I do get that.


- Thank you, Daisy.
- I'm saying...


I know what you're saying.

But we don't let that freak us out.

We let that focus us.

This is a small community,
that is a big safe,

and everything leaves a trail.

[SIGHS] Ron and Margie
searched the area.

I heard Aidan ask them last night.

They're not exactly Bonnie
and Clyde, all right?

If they found the safe, they would have

handed it back over to Piper.

It's always the quiet ones.

You're telling me.

My grandfather built this wall.

Look at this freaking mess, will ya?

Not what you'd call a
surgical strike, is it?

- Oh, no.
- I don't think we're talking

- criminal masterminds here.
- [LAUGHS]

Does anyone spring to mind
who might be responsible?

Disgruntled employees and the like?

Oh, are you kidding?
They're all disgruntled!

Look at the fricking wall!

Well, what about threats? Grudges?

I mean, your mate Amy Duncan,

she's gotta be suspect
number one, number two,

and bloody three as well.

I mean, how many times have you had to

cut her off the front gate?

There's a big jump from waving a placard

- to burglary.
- Look at the wall!

Yeah, but, I mean, she
was here the other day

with the new rev, banging
on about back pay and wages

and, well, surprise!

Guess what's in the safe!

- Come on, guess, guess, guess.
- We get it. We get it.

- I don't think you do get it.
- Listen.

- Do you get it?
- She is definitely

a person of interest, right? Relax.

If Amy didn't do it,

she bloody well knows who did.

And don't be wrapping everything

in that crime scene tape.

I've got a business to run here!

Get a warrant, will ya?

Pay Amy a visit.

Worst case, we rule
her out as a suspect.

She's annoying. She's not a thief.

She's not past pulling
a stunt like this either.

- Get the warrant.
- Okay, I'll ask.

But there are two Rold Gold crazies

I want to talk to first.

[BACKGROUND CHATTER, LAUGHTER]

- [LAUGHING]
- [MAN MUTTERING]

You boys having fun?

Yes, it's awesome. You wanna go?

So, what have you boys been up to?

Not much.

Just stuff.

Weren't doing not much at the
mill yesterday by any chance?

You took your time.

Go feed yourselves to the
fish or something, will ya?

Mill got robbed yesterday.

I thought you'd be round like a sh*t.

You seem to know all about it.

Oh, bush telegraph, love.

You know Clump is.
You can't hide nothing.

You won't mind if I
take a look around then?

You honestly don't think my boys did it.

They can hardly walk and
talk at the same time.

My fault, of course.

Shouldn't have drank so
much when I was preggers.

But hey, you live and you learn, right?

But you remember that
for when you get married.

Thanks for the advice.

Is the Rev gonna do ya?

Oh, he is gonna marry you and Aidan?

Well, yes, that's the plan.

Lovely.

I still need to look in your shed.

Oh yeah, knock yourself out.

Margie, what's this?

Margie!

You've thrown out my projector!

Oh no!

Don't go taking that
rubbish back inside.

I just put it out!

But there's nothing wrong with it!

And these movies are vintage.

Oh, they're vintage dust
collectors, more like...

- Oh, put them down, Ron.
- I'm taking them back.

- And this. I'll have that too.
- No, you're not taking that.

- No, give it to me.
- No! No one wants to

- listen to you sing, Ron.
- They might!

- Oh, they do not.
- Morning, guys.

- Rev.
- Morning, Rev.

Uh, what's happening
here? You guys moving out?

Hard rubbish week.

Eh?

Every six months, the council truck

comes and picks up
any junk you throw out.

This is not junk. This is history.

Rev, does this look like junk to you?

It normally turns into
an enormous swap meet.

You put stuff out.
Your neighbors take it.

Six months later, they put it out,

- and you take it back again.
- That's my racquet!

Well, I was just
swinging by to say thanks

for helping look for Helen last night.

It's just what you do.

Yeah, we nearly got lost ourselves,

actually, out near the mill,
because the car broke down again.

- Hey, did you hear it got robbed?
- What, your car?

No, the mill.

Millions of dollars taken, apparently.

Spock Sinclair reckons
it was foreign spies

stealing trade secrets.

Hey, come in for a cuppa,
Rev. I've just made scones.

I've been looking for that.

Give the scones a wide birth.

You could tile your patio with them.

So, nobody was around the mill

- to give you guys a jump, huh?
- No.

Not until that lovely boy turned up

to tinker with our engine.

Daisy.

Dais.

Hey, Dais.

- Okay, where is he?
- Why are we whispering?

Where's the Rev? Seriously, where is he?

How would I know?

Okay, look, Dais, he's...

he's not who you think he is.

Yeah? He's like this foreign crook.

He stole the safe from the mill.

- What are you talking about?
- Dais, look.

[UNEASY MUSIC]

There. I've got it on video.

My drone was following
along with the runners.

I've caught him red-handed.

I went and got it last night.

I'm gonna take it to Piper.

No.

You cannot do that.

- [SCOFFS]
- I know this looks really bad,

but you've got it all wrong.

Daisy, you saw...

Okay.

The Rev did steal the safe, yeah.

But it was for a good reason,

and you cannot dob him in to Piper.

Otherwise, he'll be in so much trouble.

T-that's the point. He's dodgy as.

I could go to juvie.

Oh, you...

You helped him.

It's not what you think, Cam.

- Daisy.
- Please, I promise.

Ah.

Hey, priest man, look.

Brand new!

That is astonishing.

You want to buy this thing?

Uh, no, but thank you.

Hey, uh, Piper.

Are you interested in kitchenware?

Archil's got you.

No. Ron and Margie home?

Uh, yeah, they are.

In fact, I just had one of his scones.

Oh.

Yeah, I wouldn't recommend it.

Hey, they were telling me
about the, um, mill robbery.

And apparently, there
were millions of dollars

in blood diamonds and stolen art?

They were out near the mill last night.

Hopefully, they saw
something, or someone.

Yeah. Good idea. Yeah. Smart.

Mill Manager said you were there

a couple days ago, actually, with Amy?

Mm-hmm. Yeah, I was just helping her out

with a meeting about some
back pay and overtime.

You know, really just moral support.

He said Amy got pretty worked up.

I wouldn't say that. No.

I mean, sure, she was passionate,

but it's her cause.

You're not trying to protect her

from anything by any chance?

Protecting her from what?

It's hard to believe we were
running right past the mill

when they were robbing it.

Don't suppose you saw
anything unexpected?

[SNORTS] No.

All I saw was you kicking my butt.

Well, there's always next year.

You can bet on it.

I'll, uh, see you later for the, uh,

Ties That Bind session.

Aidan can't wait.

Uh, yeah, me neither.

See you there.

He had drone footage of you
hiding the safe in the forest,

But you let him in on the amazing plan.

Yeah, how you're like Robin Hood,

Rob from the rich, am I right?

Cam has something to show you.

Cam, you are a legend.

- That was genius, Cam.
- Yeah.

Doesn't look heavy, but, uh, it is.

We're just gonna leave this in here.

I'll figure out some way to hide it

a safe, you understand me?

Yeah, yeah. Got it.

Good.

I-I'm not gonna go to jail, am I?

No, man.

Nobody put Robin Hood in jail.

Oh. Ha ha.

You could have just told him

the safe to save his ass.

He is a big boy.

No, he would be gutted.

You know, he would rather get beaten up

All you had to do was tell
me where you were yesterday

and why Mack went with you to the mill.

You're looking at
Clump's first millionaire.

you and me would just
have a normal conversation

- We're not normal friends!

Amy, it was ten years ago.
I've apologized already.

Have you? I don't think I remember that.

You were the one who
backed out, remember?

We were meant to go together,

and you said you didn't
want to go anymore.

I said I couldn't go!

Not right then!

Mum was a mess after Dad left us!

Why couldn't you wait?

Why didn't you come later?

Why?

Because-because we were
supposed to do it together.

I knew if I didn't
leave then, I'd back out.

No worries, Rev. It's in the vault.

There you are, thank goodness.

Oh, morning, Peter.

So, the bishop is coming back tomorrow

to finally make her
decision on the church.

would I be if I told you?

all. We'll get started.

we need to talk about

are the three Ps of marriage.

- Sounds good.
- Sounds like marketing jargon.

You know, it's actually
kind of the same thing.

I mean, supply and
demand. Husband and wife.

It's... you still need

those three Ps,

and they are passion,
positivity, and perseverance.

Well, I think we've got that
covered, don't we, Pipes?

Especially the passion part.

I mean, what do you

Look, guys, I think there must
be some kind of mistake here.

Nah, Rev. We've all received
our gifts from heaven,

and we come in here to tidy
up the gardens to say thanks.

Well, that is super kind of you guys.

But those gifts that you got?

They're from God.

Yeah, that's not me.

Well, you tell God his
secret is safe with us.

I, uh, yeah, look, I see
what's happening here.

Look, this sort of thing happened
in the Bible all the time.

I mean, there was lots of
gossip going around Jerusalem,

and Jesus walking around
the water, curing the lepers,

and people like to talk, and
they just get carried away.

That's it. Really.

You say what you want.

But I know what I believe.

I respect that. I really do.

And believe me, I prayed for you.

I prayed for all of you like
I have never prayed before.

And who knows? Maybe God heard me.

But that is it.

I mean, you guys have
all heard the proverb

"If it sounds too good to
be true, it probably is"?

Jesus wrote that.

Whatever you reckon.

But we're still gonna tidy up
the garden, right, everyone?

- Yeah!
- Yeah!

Ah, well, bless you all.

Ah... just... yeah.

I'll be right back.

Hey, Your Holy. This is a surprise.

Yeah, for both of us.

Quite a turnout you've got here.

Isn't it, though?

"If it sounds too good to
be true, it probably is"?

Where does it say that in Proverbs?

It's a loose translation from the Greek.

[SPEAKING GREEK] _

Exactly.

Look, I know that you're
really busy at the moment,

but we need to talk.

About the church.

Right.

You gonna be here in the morning?

Is the Pope Catholic?

All right. Well, see you then, then.

Mm-hmm.

Can you... ?

Yeah, that's not gonna work.

- I see.
- Yep.

Come on.

- Reverend.
- Oh.

Hey, Peter.

How you doing, man?

I didn't know we were gardening.

Oh yeah.

No, we've had it planned for weeks.

Right.

Yeah, I was thinking of
writing Helen an organ song.

No.

No, I mean, that's definitely
not... no, you're trying to woo

her, right, not bury her.

That's a hard no.

Well, it's something I know.

Yeah, but it's not the
only thing you know, right?

I mean, you know Helen.

She's my wife.

Yeah, exactly.

So...

Look, sit.

Sit.

We're gonna figure this out.

Tell me about Helen.

She likes lots of things.

- Okay.
- Travel.

- Mm-hmm.
- Cooking Moroccan tangines.

Tagines.

She loved going to the movies
before the cinema closed down.

That's it. Yeah.

Great idea.

Take her on a date.

You know, hit the reset button.

I guess we could go to
the Sugar Cane Museum.

That's not a date, Peter.

That's a field trip.

Oh my God, you do not have a
romantic bone in your body, do you?

I used to.

You know what, Peter?

I think I know a way to find it again.

You know how to sew?

Okay, Pete. Oh, screen. Screen.

Oh, here we go.

Look at that.

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

- Where are you taking me?
- You'll see.

- What have you cooked up?
- It's a surprise.

Do you remember the last
time that you blindfolded me?

[BOTH LAUGHING]

Okay. We're here.

Little step forward.
Little step forward.

That's it. And I'll go this way.

Peter, if this is
another church function,

I'll never forgive you.

Welcome to Clump Beach Cinema.

[ALL CHEERING]

This is divine.

Did you really do all
of this just for me?

I had some help.

It's perfect.

Shall we?

Best seats in the house.

Thank you.

Hello.

- Hey.
- Hiya, yeah.

- No worries.
- Enjoy.

- Hey, guys.
- Hey.

Hey, Cam, where did you get that mug?

Oh, Archil sold it to me.

It's Piper's.

Cam's now.

All right, how much?

? bucks?

- bucks?
- .

- No, I heard .
- No.

- .
- Definitely heard .

- .
- .

All right. Can I take one of these?

Yeah. On the house.

Have you guys seen Pipes anywhere?

No? [CHATTER]

Have a good night.

- Hi.
- Hi.

So, did you two and
Peter organize all this?

- Came up great, didn't it?
- Yeah.

It was Rev's idea.

Huh.

- May I?
- Sure.

Rev?

[MOVIE SCREAM]

Rev?

Ah.

Hey, Sheriff .

Why don't you come on up?

I got the best seats in the house.

[HOWLING]

I love this part.

Oh, I can't watch.

- [SNARLING]
- Me too.

Make yourself comfy.

Wow.

Not too shabby, huh?

So, this is your big secret project.

Ah, it was a team effort.

I heard you bought an angle grinder

and some diamond blades.

Yeah. I did.

Worked pretty good, too.

- Cuts like butter.
- Cuts what exactly?

See those metal uprights?

Of course.

I thought you... forget what I thought.

Sorry, it's been a week.

I almost arrested Amy
for robbing the mill.

- Yikes.
- Some best friend, huh?

Wait.

Wasn't she out on Victor's
boat that afternoon?

- She told you that?
- Yeah.

Talking to turtles or something.

Why the hell wouldn't she just tell me?

Small town policing must be rough.

Yeah.

Bunch of hardened criminals who
build moonlight beach cinemas.

There you go.

The werewolf. Run! Run!

Larry!

Wait, Larry!

You were on to me today, you know?

All that three P stuff.

You were right. It is
total and utter crapola.

Don't tell Aidan. He loved it.

Look, marriage has to
be all the things, right?

It wants to be
vulnerable and safe, sure,

but it wants to be adventurous and

exciting and wild and messy.

It has to challenge you to
just do better, to be better.

Right?

I mean, how are you supposed
to predict who is gonna

be able to give you all that?

Jesus fell in love with
a prost*tute, right?

Guessing he didn't see that coming.

Well, he probably couldn't help himself.

- She was so gorgeous.
- That is definitely it.

Smart and funny.

Kind of full of herself.

You should be careful
with these secret projects.

People might actually start to like you.

I'd better go.

Aidan's down there.

Ah, yeah.

[PHONE CHIME]

Go another round?

Priest didn't show up with the cash.

Can't trust anyone these days.

All right.

We gave him his chance.

Let's go, Biscuits.

Now, dig another one.
