Australia's best days are ahead of us...
We live in the best country in the world...
No asterisks, no footnotes...
From road to rail and in the air...
We are in the age of infrastructure...
The dawn of a new era...
The great Australian dream... To build a better future...
Record investments.
We're spending more than any government has ever spent...
Money splashed around... Splash more cash...
The cash splash... The cash splash...
It's big money in anyone's language...
This is a nation-building... Nation building...
Nation building...
So I've separated out each of the principal costs.
Operating expenses. Purple.
Yep. And plant hire.
Mauve. Yeah. That's it.
Got it. Sorry. I'm a little lost.
Which one is purple? Operating expenses.
Yeah, but which one up there is purple?
Mauve. Next to depreciation.
No. The mauve is interested in accruals.
Depreciation is lilac.
OK, that looks more violet on that screen.
I could do you a separate bar chart presentation.
What if you just point? Morning, all.
Oh, sorry, fellas. We'll come back to this.
How's it going? Good.
Does that look like mauve to you?
You've got a full dance card here.
Oh, yeah. The regional rail link.
We're just finalising tenders for that big super tunnel.
Hit a bit of a wall, have you? No.
Bogged down? No.
I spoke to Treasury. They said there's no rush with this thing.
I'm not rushing.
But if you need us to take it off your hands.
Why would we need you to take it off our...?
It's just...
There's been a bit of a hiccup.
One of the bidders.
Oh, yeah. The Canadians have pulled out.
Yeah. Right.
Why are we whispering? No reason.
What happened?
Maybe one of their pension funds got cold feet.
Oh, God. Why don't you just flick this thing back to us?
Oh, it's no big deal, Jim.
We've got plenty of other options on the table.
So no decision yet?
No.
Nat? Just wondering, any further thoughts on Carla?
Carla?
For the junior assistant role.
Oh. Problem?
No, it's just I've had another flick through her CV.
She interviewed so well. She certainly did.
She was excellent.
You weren't there.
I'm just going on what Beverly said.
You don't think she might be a little overqualified?
In what sense?
She lists her work interest areas as
"Governance, strategy, planning and stakeholder engagement."
So impressive. It's exactly what we need.
We need an assistant. Executive level.
Anyway, she's starting tomorrow. You said you wanted my thoughts.
She's very keen.
OK.
I think she'll prove an excellent fit.
I think so too.
You can tell from Beverly's tone.
WOMAN: This is an incredibly important project.
MAN: A tunnel 40 metres below the surface.
WOMAN: But the government isn't using the term...
WOMANL: Open tender...
MAN: We want the best possible deal for Australia.
(LIFT OPENS) RHONDA: And here we are.
Nation Building Australia.
Courtney, allow me to introduce, uh...?
Grace.
Grace. And...? Jai.
And of course...? Tara.
Yes, might organise some nametags.
Proud winners of the Parliamentary Prize for...?
Environmental Studies.
Bravo to them, our future leaders.
And as part of that prize, they get to spend a week
with the government department of their choice.
Wow. And you chose us?
We're interested in learning about renewable infrastructure.
Is that us? Think so.
Let's just get you signed in.
Right this way.
So if you can just put your names here and then maybe your schools.
And then after we've done that,
the plan is to get Rhonda to show you ar...
(LIFT CLOSES)
That was the old plan.
The new plan is sign in and, um, come with me.
Brendan's updated them. TONY: Yep.
All year to date figures are now lavender.
Katie, I need a spreadsheet, not a pride flag.
I'll speak to him. OK.
If you prefer to bring your lunch in, the fridge is...
Oh, Tony, it's Carla's first day.
Oh, Carla. Tony Woodford. Good to meet you.
I hope you're settling in well. Yep. Just getting up to speed.
Well, if there is anything I can do to help...
Couple of things. Yeah.
Can I ask about your policy regarding references?
Ahh, sure.
Well, we don't give them day one.
No, but assuming all KPIs are met and performance targets achieved...
Yeah, I think Nat might be the more appropriate person
to ask about that. I think so.
Just that you're CEO. Sure.
Yeah.
I reckon we keep moving. The coffee machine...
Can I just ask one more thing? About making coffee?
About your reporting structures?
Who will I be answerable to?
Nat. I mean, ultimately.
Um, I think Nat, still. Great.
I just wanted to be clear about organisational flows.
Yeah. Yep.
Better show you that coffee machine. Ooh, coffee machine!
I'll leave you to it.
So this is our main executive office.
Morning!
Oh, Tony, this is Grace, Jai and Tara.
Ah! Our prizewinners. Congratulations.
ALL: Thank you.
Now, how were you selected for the...
So we had to write an essay on Australia's transition
to renewable energy. Wow. I would love to read that.
I brought a copy in. Oh, you've got one.
Me too.
Yep, here's mine. OK. Oh, three different ess...
Oh, I got a bit of homework.
Now, I know that Rhonda has got a really big week planned for you.
That was the old plan. Oh? And the new plan?
Finding Rhonda. OK, well, I will leave you to it.
Alright, guys. Just this way.
Welcome. Good stuff.
Welcome.
Why is Jim here?
Just a routine visit. What?
"Ad hoc catch up." OK.
(WHISPERS) Tony, can I grab your phone
and any electronic watches or devices?
(WHISPERS) Why are we whispering?
Because Jim was. OK.
Ah, Tony!
Just checking in.
(WHISPERS) Shut the door. Yep.
Checking in on...?
Oh, anything you choose. Right.
You don't have a smartphone?
No.
Just wanted to get an update on the tunnel tender.
Oh, yeah. Who's in? Who's out?
Japan's looking shaky. Right.
France is still in.
Ah, France. Good option, eh? A little expensive.
Yeah, early days.
Not really. China. Shaky.
They're the best option at this point.
In terms of...? Cost.
A little narrow. What about construction time line?
Way ahead of everyone else. There's bound to be other drawbacks.
Not really. You'll find some.
What? Who else?
Ah, Spain. Ahhh.
So they're your preferred option? No.
Oh, feels like a good offer.
What? Mmm. And you mentioned them last.
Yeah, because we've still got a bit of work to do.
So no decision yet? No.
OK, well, when you're about to, can you let me know?
I'll text you. Use Signal.
Code word - falcon. OK.
Ahhh! Good general catch-up on non-specific matters!
Nation builders!
All settled over there?
We're about to see how things operate.
The room where it happens.
H-Hamilton? The... You know?
OK. Any sign of Rhonda?
Still trying. She's still not picking up.
Alright, well, let's make a start.
And seeing as it's Carla's first team meeting,
how about we begin by quickly introducing ourselves?
Nat? Sure.
I'm Nat Russell, head of operations.
Katie, executive assistant.
I'm Carla Lissell. My pronouns are she/her.
And I'll be working in an executive capacity just helping to identify,
formulate and shape critical infrastructure projects
and assist in the management of their implementation.
Uh...
I'm Scott. I help Tony.
And I'm Ash, and I help...too.
Brendan's done it on the office printer, larger format.
Yeah, but I still can't work out the details.
Where's interest and accruals?
Uh, there. It's still purple.
No, it's indigo.
Feel like I'm doing an Ishihara colour test.
We try some other ones?
Well, I wouldn't rule out black and white at this stage.
COURTNEY: Tony, the school kids?
We need to come up with some more things for them to do.
What are they interested in?
Grace plays the cello?
No. What did they get the prize for again?
Environmental science.
They want to understand more about green initiatives.
Gee, if they could understand our purple initiatives, it'd be great.
I think they want to speak to you. What are they doing now?
They're watching a documentary about our desalination plants.
A doco? The Four Corners one.
That was an expose.
About white elephants.
Quickly get them out of there and bring them in here.
OK. Great. Oh, and Katie,
after 20 minutes, come in.
Got it.
Should I take their phones? Not for this.
Thank you so much for your time, Mr Woodford.
Oh, happy to help. Where do you want to begin?
Oh, with the desal plant,
is it true that not a single drop has been needed...
I reckon let's stick to transition to renewables, Jai.
Yep, sure.
Is it OK if Grace takes notes?
We just want to make sure we get everything right.
Oh, good thinking. It's a complex field.
So where do we begin - solar, wind, waves?
Maybe with something simple? Sure.
Pre-combustion carbon capture.
Yeah, we can absolutely start there. Fire away.
Yeah. I've just got to knock off an email here.
So how do you plan to deal with the limited availability
of the IGCCT?
Yeah, I just want to make sure we're on the same page.
When you say IGCCT, you mean, of course...?
Integrated gasification combined cycle technology.
T-technology. Yep. We're on the same page here.
Let's just give Grace a moment to write that down.
MAN: Pre-combustion carbon capture is the process...
Uh...where were we?
Sort of thinking outside the box
but it's still coming from inside the box.
So it sort of ticks both boxes.
Do you see what I mean? Yeah.
Minister? Nat. Just chatting with Carla.
Oh, you've met. We have indeed.
She was asking about our CSR policy. CSR?
Community social responsibility.
We've had it on the back burner for a while.
Is it something we could be advancing in this term?
I'm not sure it's a priority for us...
But it is a priority.
Then let's get it on the agenda. Absolutely, sir.
I'd be happy to put together a framework.
Would you, Carla? Sure.
Excellent. Nat, we can't let this drop again. OK?
Anyway, Minister, just a few follow-ups from our last meeting.
I think we're good to go. Thanks, Carla.
Great.
OK. So...
So this CSR thing, is it something we could announce in the short term?
I can draft you up a range of policy options this week.
We do have quite a list of things to get through.
Two sitting weeks. It'd be good to have something up our sleeves.
I can follow up with Carla. I'm happy to loop you in.
Smart cookie. Mm.
Well done.
Another interesting question, Jai... But you haven't answered it.
Hey, I'm planning to. Maybe if you just reword it.
Is pumped hydro technically green?
Yeah, pretty much. It produces hydro.
That's not renewable. It's hydro.
But using coal generated electricity to pump the water,
how could that be deemed carbon neutral?
What if you use renewable energy to pump the water?
And are you? Keep going.
Once you factor in transmission losses, construction emissions...
You understand the question.
I'm nodding. Yeah, it's a bit complicated, Grace.
I'm not sure how familiar you are with reversible turbine technology.
Yeah, the one that combines radial and axial force.
Oh, yeah. Here we go.
I'm gonna be called away from...
Here we go! Hope everyone's hungry.
Mm-hm. Maybe not. Yep. Sorry to interrupt.
Oh, no, the interruption's good.
Carry on. Yep.
(LIFT CLOSES)
That was completely inappropriate.
I was just trying to assist the minister.
But you're here to assist us.
That's why I asked about reporting structures.
I'll give you the tip. Day two, you don't report to the minister.
I was just trying to make a valuable contribution.
Listen, Carla, I don't want an argument.
I'm not arguing. I'm clarifying.
And making a contribution.
You go through me. Not Tony. Not the minister. Me.
Are we still clarifying?
Yeah, I think we got there in the end.
Thank you, Jai. Thank you, Grace.
Should we finish the desal doco now?
Maybe later. Yeah.
Come on. What happened?
I said come in after 20 minutes.
We did. Not with lunch.
I've sat through more relaxing Senate inquiries.
I don't have them this afternoon, do I?
Brian's giving them a tour of our recycling facilities.
Make sure he's prepped. Mm-hm.
Tony. Yep?
I've had another crack at that spreadsheet.
OK. Here you go.
I've stripped out the procurement fees
and I've listed them individually.
Sorry, which are the procurement fees?
The green. Above the line costs, now emerald.
All the loan balances in our lime.
Which one's lime? Next to the mint.
Is that any clearer?
You know what, Brendan? I wouldn't rule out reusing primary colours.
You know, red, yellow, blue.
Jade? I reckon stick with the classics?
Yeah.
(DEVICE WHISTLES)
What are you doing?
Falcon. What's going on?
All clear, Jim.
Nothing? Oh, just this old iPod Nano.
Oh, I was wondering where that had got to.
Sorry, Tony.
Someone could be listening.
To four year old podcasts?
Location secure.
So, the bids? What about them?
Spain? No.
The Canadians are back in.
China. Are out?
Have the best offer. At this stage.
At every stage. Still, early days.
Not really. But you've got doubts?
No. Concerns?
A few quibbles?
Jim, what have you got against the Chinese tender?
Nothing. Jim. Please tell me.
It's the optics, Tony.
A massive construction project and we hand it over to...
Well, we're about to hand it over to the Canadians.
That's... This is...
China have the best offer.
It's the timing. I thought it was the optics.
We've spent the last five years muscling up to them, talking tough,
adopting an aggressive posture.
So?
If we sign this deal, we could be in real danger.
From China?
The Americans, they don't want an easing of bilateral tensions.
We need to toe the line, stick with them
and stand up to the bullies.
Sorry. Who are the bullies?
China.
OK. So you want us to ignore the Chinese tender?
No.
Let me say very clearly that I have no preferred option,
stated or otherwise, for any one tender, Tony.
Jim, you don't think we're going over the top with this?
Brian with all that security and Katie taking...
Did you just say eat a post-it note?
Hm? No?
Just then.
Here are those letters you wanted redrafted.
And I've also finished that report.
There were just a few typos, but I think I got them all.
Thanks. That's great.
Oh, and Carla, I'm sorry if I was a bit curt yesterday.
You weren't, really.
I think she was.
Can I just quickly ask you about a couple of things?
Sure. Great.
OK. It's your mission statement.
I think it needs work. Interesting.
What's wrong with our mission statement?
"To provide the very best in independent advice
"and long-term infrastructure planning"?
Yep. That's what you're trying to do?
And the issue is?
This reads more like a vision statement.
Interesting. Sorry?
Your 'why'. Your mission statement should be your 'what'.
What? Exactly.
I think you're mixing up mission and vision with purpose and value.
I think you could be right.
Sorry, Carla. What's this got to do with anything?
There's that curtness.
I'm just putting together that CSR framework.
But it's a little hard when you've got such a poorly worded
set of guiding principles.
I don't need you putting together a CSR framework.
The minister asked. You offered.
He accepted. It's not your role.
It's not even a priority.
The minister feels it's a priority.
Are we still clarifying?
Is there any chance I could get you to help me
find some documentation later?
Sure. Great.
What the f...? Curt.
Tony. You OK, Brian?
We may have real problems downstairs.
What's happened? I had the kids down there,
and Tara thinks that our recyclables
might be mixed with our general waste.
I wouldn't worry about it, Brian.
And Jai was asking about our lack of EV charging stations.
Leave it with me. Yeah.
Alright. Here's your phone back.
My phone? Mm.
With the Harry Styles screensaver? Oh, shit.
Yeah. OK.
Katie, any word on Rhonda?
We think she's overseas.
And we need something for them to do this afternoon.
They can find Rhonda.
Scotty, have you got time to help out with the kids?
Oh... Show them some of our new projects.
Maybe the green hydrogen plant.
It's in Perth. No, not the plant.
The plans in the design room.
There's heaps of stuff in there. Got it. Yeah.
And after that, you could take them down to the solar farm.
It's a great idea.
Have you read the energy market operator's latest report
into renewables?
No. Yeah, I would.
And I've got a few YouTube links I can flick ya.
And I reckon take Courtney.
Why?
She can google for you. Yeah.
Tony, Jim wants to speak to you urgently.
Where is he?
It says Brian will give you the meeting details.
Use the code word 'Eagle'.
Eagle. Eagle.
Eagle? I thought it was Falcon.
No, Brian changed it. Oh, good idea. Jump in.
We can't give this thing to the Chinese.
Why? I told you, it's the cost.
They're the cheapest bid. Not the money.
The cost to us! We'll be under attack.
From? Talkback callers, socials,
editorials, every think tank in the country.
But you deal with that every day.
Not on this level.
And you wait for the diplomatic blowback.
From? The Yanks.
They'll be furious.
Our steadfast allies. Shoulder to shoulder.
They'll destroy us.
What does the PM think?
Big Bird? Worried.
Jim, I'm trying to get the best deal for the taxpayer.
And I'm not trying to interfere.
I'm just suggesting that maybe we reconsider.
How is that not interfering?
I said maybe. Now, how's that Spanish bid?
That's interfering. No, it's not. It's suggesting.
They're almost a billion dollars more.
So they're in the ballpark? No.
Have a chat. They've given us their bid.
They're Spanish. They're haggling.
We're not buying souvenirs. Have a chat.
Here you go. Chicken.
It's Eagle. No, it's Jim's lunch.
Oh. Thanks, Magpie.
How many kilowatts in a megawatt?
Great question. Great question.
Inverter.
Follow me, guys.
This is your isolator box.
Probably shouldn't touch the isolator box.
Did any of you guys want to get a selfie with a panel?
For TikTok, or...?
Uh, any questions?
Well, what's the carbon footprint of these solar panels?
W-what do you mean?
How are they manufactured?
Oh, in a factory. Yeah. But using what energy source?
What inputs? Googling.
I'll have a think and come back to that.
Anyway, it's a good story.
Renewable energy for 20 years.
What about recycling?
Didn't Brian take you through that? No, the panels.
What's their end of life?
What about panel obsolescence?
Uh, what do you mean, panel obsolescence?
Early retirement. Uh-huh.
Ooh, got something.
(PRINTER BEEPS)
Ash. Why are we printing our mission statement?
You said it was unclear.
No, Carla said it was unclear. But you didn't disagree.
Where is she? Working in the pod.
She needed more space. For what?
All your work, plus preparing the CSR framework for the minister...
If she thinks that's about to become her office...
Ash, "community social responsibility" -
does that have capitals? Yes.
She's got quite a workload.
Ahh, you don't even have an office.
You want me to tell her no?
Allow me. Try not to be curt.
No guarantees.
You're back. What took you so long?
The EV ran out of charge and we had to take the bus.
We've got the Spanish in 10 minutes.
Well, no, that's not till 7am. Their time.
That makes more sense. Anyway, how'd you go?
The kids learn a few things? Not as much as us.
Have you heard of the solar trash wave?
Is that a band, is it?
No. It's a cumulative solar panel waste graph,
depending on the replacement time line.
What's the red?
That is early replacement due to innovation.
See, primary colours. I can read...
Can you show that to Brendan?
Yeah.
I mean...
Right, so I've just clarified the wording so that the core values
now more accurately reflect our stated aims.
OK. Are you sure?
Yep. It's good.
Thanks, Nat.
Is there any chance of me getting that in writing?
What in writing?
What you just said. Your assessment of my work.
What did I say?
That it met and exceeded required standards.
I said "good".
It's just that Beverly suggests that I formalize all feedback.
What's Beverly got to do with it?
She's agreed to mentor me. Has she?
If it helps, I can write something, and you can just sign it later.
OK. Is it all up?
Yep. Good? Yep. OK.
Hola. Eh, buenas noches, Del Toro.
And good evening to you from Madrid.
Ah. Garo para in...
I think Jose speaks English.
Correct. I am happy to speak English.
Muchas gracias.
We just wanted to discuss your tender for the inland rail tunnel.
We are obviously very keen to partner with you in this endeavour.
Well, it's very good to hear, Jose.
Eh, muy bien, Jose.
We feel confident we can complete the tunnel works
for the stated fee of $5.8 billion.
5.8? Yeah.
So can I just ask hypothetically,
if I was to tell you there was another offer on the table
for $4.9 billion,
what would you say?
Wow. Take it.
Ay caramba!
It's not completely locked in.
Yeah. We could not possibly match such an offer.
What if we helped out a little from our end?
Sorry. Who is this?
Jim, you weren't supposed to speak.
Eh, silencio.
Jose, tell us, how could we help out?
What are your main sticking points?
Jim.
Well, obviously, labour costs are significant.
So if we help to do a deal with the unions...
What? Que?
Anything else?
And your environmental requirements
are greatly adding to the overall figure.
Oh, we can loosen them.
Jim, I'm not sure we should be shifting the goalposts at this point.
And the kids will be furious.
Is there anything else we can do for you, Jose?
Jim, stop! Jim, suficiente.
Yeah, well, I think... Sorry, we're having a few difficulties.
Sorry, Jose.
Uh, mucho problemo.
Technical...technical... Mucho problemo.
I can hear you fine.
Yeah. No, no, I didn't hear that.
No...i...e...problemo...
..tecnico.
Yep.
We need to talk about Carla. Please.
I hear she's stepping into a lot of new areas.
She is.
Designing and implementing a CSR strategy
across multiple sectors... Where are you getting that?
Her CV. She's already updated it?
Mmm. She's certainly taking on roles we didn't quite anticipate.
So what do we do?
I'm wondering whether we get her an assistant.
She's meant to be assisting me.
Do we reassign Ash?
So I lose an assistant in order to assist someone
who's supposed to be assisting me?
(WHISPERS) Careful with that curtness.
What the hell was that about?
Just trying to give him a leg up!
By rewriting the entire deal?
I was haggling.
You offered him mates' rates.
Especiales para amigos.
If we can just get these guys across the line.
Financially, we're done.
Well, then there's only one thing left.
Accept the Chinese offer.
Find out if there are any issues at the security briefing.
What security briefing?
Que? Informe de seguridad?
After you. Ah, thank you.
And thanks for agreeing to see us at such short notice.
Not a problem. Where should we put our phones?
Oh, anywhere. On the table. In your pocket.
Now, I've had a look at the various tenders you sent through,
and I struggled a little with the colours.
Really? Brendan did them for us.
Have a seat, please.
Yeah. If you're happy to chase up the documentation, we can...
What's going on? Hi, Nat.
We're just about to finish up.
On? The CSR task force.
When did it become a task force?
Well, task force, working group. Whatever.
You said task force.
We won't be much longer.
We've got work to do. Which is why I started this early,
so it doesn't interfere with your stuff.
I'd be happy to loop you in.
I don't need to be looped in.
OK.
5 minutes, promise.
(QUIETLY) Ash. Door.
No, that's mango.
And then France is orange.
And then Japan, that's tangerine.
Right, I think I've got it now. Can we come back to that?
Because what we're really after is,
are there any security threats with any of the bids?
Well, where do I start? China.
I mean, just to pick one.
That's apricot.
We've examined this bid from every angle -
infrastructure technology, spyware, malware.
Broader cyber security implications. And?
You'll be pleased to hear that there are no issues.
Oh, well, that's a relief.
So can we turn our phones back on?
But isn't there a danger that China could use this opportunity
to access sensitive information?
Such as?
Where the trains are going?
Through the tunnel.
But where does that tunnel emerge?
Farmland.
And what are those farms growing?
Currently products that the Chinese are boycotting.
So no agricultural intelligence?
Nope. So I trust that puts your minds at ease.
Yeah. Yeah.
Oh, having said that, there are a few question marks
around the Spanish bid.
Mango.
Jose, hey?
So those time lines are obviously subject to planning approval.
We're still waiting for that. Carla?
I'll follow them up. Good.
We also need to run a final check on those projections.
Sorry to interrupt. The minister just needs a quick word.
Really? With Carla.
You know what? You stay here.
I'll take it in there.
Jim? I mean, Falcon?
Nightingale.
Oh, this has got to stop.
I told you, there has to be complete secrecy on this.
(PHONE BEEPS) SIRI: I didn't get that.
Could you try again?
So, no security issues?
None. We've got to give it to the Chinese.
There must be something we can think of.
Alright. Before you call me crazy, hear me out. We build it ourselves.
Australia build an advanced fast rail tunnel?
What if it was a joint deal?
Sure. Australia-China.
Australia-Spain. Like a GoPro.
It's not a Netflix series. The Chinese offer is better.
Should have haggled.
Jim, you can't be haggling with in... Shhh!
Is that a balloon?
Yeah.
How do we know it's not one of theirs?
Because it's got the name of an Australian winery
written on the side.
I wouldn't put it past them.
Oh. Sorry, Nat. Have you seen Carla?
I don't know where she is.
She's not in her office.
What do you need her for?
I've got her replacement security pass.
What was wrong with the old one?
Wrong job title. Assistant?
Yep. Should be adviser.
ASH: She may not need it. What?
Did you not hear? No.
She's leaving next week.
She's quit? Canberra.
She's been seconded by the minister.
You're kidding. Who told you?
She just added it to her CV.
Anyway, Brian, I think she's having a coffee with Tony.
What's she doing that for?
She's getting a reference.
Tony. The kids are just leaving.
Oh, so soon?
And we finally found Rhonda.
She'll be back tomorrow. Right.
Well, I certainly hope you've enjoyed your time with us.
It's been a real eye opener, Mr Woodford.
We've learnt so much about you.
Yeah, I might just cast an eye of those notes of yours, Grace.
I'll send you a copy. Oh, I might grab one too.
Especially that stuff about the solar trash wave.
Best wishes for the rest of the school year.
Yeah.
I think we have to go with Spain. No.
It's the only way to avoid the backlash.
It's $900 million more expensive.
A billion. What?
