Been a long time. I've got fond memories of Sterling Nickle.
Wish I could say the same but some prick robbed me of 300K.
That gift just keeps on giving, Lennie.
Drop your weapon! I was shot. My career was wrecked.
Why wouldn't I want to find out who did this to me?
It's someone else not on your board.
That's the bastard that shot me.
Mum used to talk about this. On the run, shifting houses.
Maybe it wasn't just drugs that killed her.
Your daughter dies of an overdose and here you are,
trying to sell drugs.
You're the lowest of the low, Cahill.
This is not a courtesy call. This is a parole breach.
He's running out of lives, Shannon.
If you'll just let me explain... It's too late for that. Where is he?
It's all gone. But everything?!
Everything we've saved for for the trip?
He's found out how the hackers have accessed our account.
Where is he? Sydney.
We found the hacker and Marg's gone after him alone
into an Internet cafe in Matraville.
Give me the address!
Thanks for coming, Ted!
Police, drop your weapon!
This is Ted McCabe. He has taken my wife hostage.
What have you done with my wife? I didn't touch her!
Ted! No, Ted, don't!
There she is! Ted, watch out!
Dinner's at six. Lockdown at ten. Lights out at 11:30.
Yeah, mate, I know.
You walked into Kurt Meeks' hotel
carrying an unlicensed 9mm semi-automatic handgun.
If you weren't intending to kill Meeks,
what were you planning to do with the gun?
There was no intent, Mal, and you know it.
He'd kidnapped my wife.
He'd pulled a weapon on me. I was acting in self-defence.
It was reasonable provocation.
Remind me never to provoke you.
You're doing a pretty good job right now.
Was it revenge?
Meeks was part of the Sterling Nickle heist.
Did you shoot him because you thought it was him
that shot you all those years ago?
You know it wasn't him, Mal.
You know whoever it was is still out there,
so why are you questioning me
when you should be out there looking for him?
You've let emotion cloud your judgement, Ted.
You've always let emotion cloud your judgement.
You deliberately interfered in a police investigation
and now someone's paid with their life.
I'll be pursuing a charge of murder against you, Ted.

The device is set to the external perimeter of the residence.
If you move beyond the fence line,
the next signal to be sent will alert base
to the fact that you've absconded.
Don't think it's really my colour.
Nice of you to drop by. Shall I pop the kettle on?
This document guarantees your unconditional release
for assisting police in an ongoing investigation.
Really? Ted McCabe intended to kill Meeks.
I know that. I just need to prove it.
That's why you're such a shithouse cop, Dwyer.
You really don't know crims.
Why would I ever help you do anything?
Please don't do this. I've got an eight-year-old girl.
That's my daughter. Who's gonna look after her?
What is this? It's from 12 years ago.
She was brought in for questioning.
You were caught with 10g, Alice. That's an indictable amount.
That's 15 years.
This tape was made two days before she died of an overdose.
Your daughter's going to be grown up by the time you get out of jail
but maybe I can sort something out here. OK?
Now, you know your father was involved in a major robbery.
He's looking at some serious time in jail.
But he can reduce his sentence
if he gives us information about the others involved.
But he's stubborn. He won't accept the plea bargain.
But maybe you can help. How?
By convincing him to help us.
Dad won't listen to me.
I need assistance gathering evidence in order to make a conviction
against Ted McCabe for the murder of Meeks.
In exchange for your cooperation, your parole will be reinstated.
Tea's made. Want a biscuit or something?
I can get you a biscuit.
Now, you'd better have this.
I forgot that I had it.
It's Kurt Meeks'. He dropped it on the roof of the hotel.
Marg, you are amazing.
There's only one contact.
That phone would have been burned by now.
Maybe there's something in the messages.
What's this first one here? 'Pry pire quo.'
Could be Latin.
I'm going to go and stay with Rebecca for a bit.
What? Why?
I need a break.
Well, Marg, you've been through so much.
We both have, with the kidnapping and all.
It's bound to have an effect.
I've seen tough cops, big blokes,
that have fallen apart on less than that.
You need a rest. You need to get yourself back together.
Maybe you and Rebecca could go and have a day
at one of those spa things. That'd do the trick.
I need a break from you, Ted. What?
Well, what am I going to do? I mean, I can't even leave the house.
Don't worry, I won't leave you stranded.
I'll make sure that you get supplies.
Please, Marg, it's... Don't stop me. I need this.
Hello? Hi.
You got out.
What happened? Realised they made a mistake.
Good.
Are you OK?
Yeah. Yep.
Do you want something to eat or a tea...
No, no, no. Maybe later, eh?
I've got some business I've got to sort out.
Hey, stranger.
Hey, Cath. You're a sight for sore eyes.
How are you?
Well, I lost a couple of pints but still here.
Gees, I'm sorry, Cath. I dragged you into all of this.
Come on, Ted, I'm a police officer.
You didn't drag me anywhere I didn't want to go.
So I hear Dwyer's sharpening a spike. He wants your head on it.
What's he think I'm going to find? Has he got something to protect?
What are you getting at?
Why has Mal Dwyer been trying so hard to close me down, eh?
Come on, Ted. He's my commanding officer.
Doesn't mean he wasn't involved. Rick was involved.
Why shouldn't he be?
Hey! Look what the cat dragged in out of incarceration. Come in.
Want a cup of tea or a beer or something?
Nup. What about something to eat?
I've learned how to use the jaffle. Now, that's a nifty invention.
It melts the cheese. Not all that hungry.
You know, Lennie, Meeks was in contact
with someone else the whole time, Margaret told me.
We're getting very close, Lennie. Close to the end.
If it wasn't for that dickhead Mal Dwyer,
I'd have cracked this thing by now.
You know, the more I think about it,
he's either incompetent or stupid or bent or both.
He knows he needs my help to solve the case
but he keeps trying to put me away.
What does that tell ya? Tells me you're a prick.
Exactly.
Wait, what? Backstabbing scumbag.
You talking about me or him? Talking about you.
What?
What's up your clacker? You are.
You killed my daughter. It's your fault she's dead.
You don't know what you're talking about.
Saw it with my own eyes.
Your so-called interrogation 12 years ago.
But I'd call it harassment. I'd call it bullying.
She was sick and you killed her. How did you see that?
You used her like you've been using me.
Anything to get to Meeks so you can kill him.
That's more like it. Dwyer showed you that, didn't he?
See, that is exactly my point.
He doesn't want us working together because when we work together,
we are dangerous for him.
That's all you care about, isn't it? Just solving the case.
You don't care who you hurt, you don't care what you say.
Bullshit. Just as long as you get what you want.
Oh, listen to the pot calling the kettle black.
What about the shit you put people through
just to put your hands on that grubby Sterling Nickle money, eh?
Including your grand-daughter! You bloody mongrel!
Is that...? Are they...?
Ya bloody mongrel!
Unbelievable.
Get off him! Break it up!
Get off him! Get off him!
Break it up! You stupid old bastards!
Stay back there! Stay back there.
You're wearing a wire, ya rat maggot!
Dwyer wanted to bring you down. I was only too happy to help!
I hope they haven't given up your cell.
Hey, I did my part of the contract. Check the fine print.
You of all people, dogging to the cops!
You're despicable! Get the...
I'll get me hat!
What is this? What is this? Get a warrant!
Anything in here to do with Sterling Nickle, I want.
You block me at every turn. You wanna tell me why? Tell me why!
Don't you walk away from me.
I've got your number.
What are you hiding from, Mal? Don't cross that line, Ted.
What'd you do with your share, eh? What'd you spend it on?
Well, I'm glad you're out again.
You're so happy, don't ever breach me again.
Well, don't ever give me a reason to breach you again.
You are one tough nut, I'll give you that, Rhonda.
Look, when you first sat opposite me,
you gave me that usual schtick about going straight.
But you know what, Lennie, I think you can actually do it.
What's that? A job.
At a laundry.
The boss is prepared to give you a go as a personal favour to me.
A job?
Honest work for an honest day's wage.
14 bucks an hour. Yeah, but don't forget the bonus.
Clear conscience.
Hey, Lennie. You alright?
Give us a schooner, will ya?
I knocked but you didn't answer. Oh, hello, Zac.
I'm very tired. What do you want? Where's Margaret? Is she OK?
She's not here now. She's staying with our daughter.
I'm not surprised she's not staying here.
She's very angry with you, you know?
Well, thank you, Zac, for that useful insight into my private life.
And I read that you killed Kurt Meeks.
So that means my job's over. You don't need me anymore?
Is that correct? I guess so.
How're you going to get back the money he's hacked from your account?
I don't know.
I guess Sterling Nickle will be making a claim
against such moneys he has, so maybe, maybe not.
Anyway, Zac, I must get on so...
Look, thanks very much for everything you did. You did a great job.
Meeks hid himself well and you found him.
You cracked his code.
Pry... pire...
..quo.
P is zero, R is four.
Y is six.
Zero and eight.
E equals three.
Eight. Four.
Three. One.
You alright, mate?
You don't look so good. I'm as good as gold, Len.
How about you? Shithouse.
You know what I'm going to be doing day after tomorrow?
Working in a laundry.
Washing other people's dirty undies at 14 bucks an hour.
You'd be needing another beer, then.
Jase.
Tomorrow night, the footy final.
We're missing the armoured car pick-up because of the late opening
so I'm not going to need you there for the handover.
What's happening with the takings?
Oh, it'll just sit there overnight in the safe.
Yeah, gonna be a big night. Could be a 100,000
Pick-up won't be till the morning.
You want me to stay overnight or...?
Nah, nah, nah, the safe's down in the storage basement.
Be fine down there.
I'm just letting you know, OK?
What do you want? I got something for ya, Len.
It's big.
It's footy night, Len. Place'll be packed.
Everyone gets pissed on footy night. Drink a lot of beer.
There'd be at least 200,000 in that safe.
I'm on parole.
No offence, Len, but where's that got ya?
I mean, you're living off your grand-daughter, aren't ya?
Got a job. I can contribute.
I heard about that. Laundry boy.
My old man used to talk about you all the time.
Lennie Cahill - best safe cracker in Sydney.
Your name used to really mean something.
Good luck with your job.
Wait.
200 grand, you reckon?
OK, you know what you're doing? Yep, no worries.
What's going on? Nothing, Gaz.
Hey, Gaz, argh, I think I'm gonna be...
I think I'm gonna spew. What?
I'm gonna be sick.
Well, go to the bloody toilet, then! I don't think I'll make it.
Ferret, do not puke on my floor!
Ferret, I'm serious!
Get outside if you're gonna puke. Oh, Jesus, mate!
Just go! Get out now!
Actually, I think it's passed. I'm OK.
No more beers for him!
Ah, hello my friend.
What have you got for me today?
Something special.
Hmm, this IS special.
Centenary of Federation coin from back in 2001.
There was only one press.
It was part of the gold missing from the Sterling Nickle robbery.
Is that right? Ah, yes.
What would one of these be worth?
As minted coins, they're as hot as they come.
But they're only valuable if melted down for their gold.
There'd be a fair bit of gold in ten of these, right?
I need you to pass on a message to Ted McCabe.
Ah, Ted, I'm holding one of the gold coins
missing from Sterling Nickle.
Who brought it in? Did you get a name?
It was Lennie Cahill.
He said he knows where the stash is. Said...
Said he's going after it. Lennie Cahill.
When was this?
Oh, shit!
Inspector Dwyer?
Sorry to bother you, sir.
Looks like Ted McCabe's on the move.
Where is he?
He doesn't want to see you.
Well, I need to see him.
Oi!
OK, where is it? What do you want?
The Sterling Nickle gold. Who's got it?
Piss off. Hey, what's going on?
Oh, he knows where it is.
Yeah, the money from Sterling Nickle.
He knows where it is and he's going after it.
Is that true? He's all full of bullshit.
Money's gone. You know he's a liar.
I told you what he did to your Mum. You know what?
You go after the money - I don't care about that.
But I want the guy behind this and we've worked together on this...
Ted! ..and you can't shut me out now!
I want you to go.
Now!
What are you doing, Lennie?
He's an idiot. Look, I've got a job. I start tomorrow.
If I do alright, I could end up being manager.
We go in? Let's just see what he's up to.
Why is he checking out Cahill's?
A very fast car outside Cahill's place.
What's he up to?
You're going out? Yeah, I'm about to leave.
I could skip it.
Maybe we could do something? Go to the movies or the Italian?
We haven't really done anything like that since you've been here.
Yeah, but, you know, I've gotta get up early
for this new job tomorrow morning.
Tell you what, though, when I get my first pay packet,
we'll go for a slap-up meal. Have wine and everything.
Lennie... when you were in jail the other night.
Yeah, what about it?
Well, it was kind of quiet here.
I never thought I'd say this but I missed you.
Did ya?
Don't screw it up, OK?
Go on, you'd better go. You'll be late, eh?
Hey, hey. Here we go.
What do you want to do? Where're you off to, Lennie?
Follow Cahill.
We'll find McCabe with his ankle bracelet.
You can take off, Jase. You sure?
I haven't checked the kegs yet. Oh, no worries, I'll do it.
OK, no worries. I'll, uh, see you tomorrow.
Yeah, see ya, mate.
For the love of Pete, where is he going?
This is bloody ridiculous.
Pull him over.
Get out of the vehicle!
Get out of the car! Get out of the car!
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no!
It's the second bloody time they've done this!
Is there a problem, officer? Locate McCabe right bloody now.
Hey! Cut it out. You're blinding me, you idiot.
What are you doing here? I know what you're doing here.
You're tracking the Sterling Nickle gold, aren't you?
You off your meds?
What would the Sterling Nickle gold be doing down here?
What's all this, then?
These are the fingerprints for the combination of the safe,
if you must know.
Whose are they? Gary's.
I sprayed the doorknob upstairs.
Whoa...
The Sterling Nickle gold.
These are specially minted coins.
And all 500 of them disappeared that day.
Are you saying Gary was involved in the heist?
Your mate Gary is the man in the suit.
The one who shot me.
Wait a minute. I ain't gonna hang around.
Wait, this isn't right.
Why are we both here, Lennie? Think about this.
If you didn't think the Sterling Nickle gold was in there,
why are you cracking this safe? Of all the safes in Sydney?
I got a tip. Yeah, so did I.
Lennie, this is a trap.
Couldn't leave it alone, could ya?
You don't have to do this, Gary.
Do what? You blokes broke into my safe.
I'm within my rights to blow your head off.
Come on, Gaz. Can we talk about this?
No more talking. Turn around. Turn around!
Hi! I got you some supplies.
Sorry I'm late, I've been at the movies with...
Ted?
Ted, are you there?
Don't even think about it!
Give us the phone! Give...
Turn around.
Turn around!
What'd you do?
What'd you do? How do they know?
I didn't do anything, Gary.
OK, give me the torches.
Give me the torches!
And the lock pick.
Can I help you? We got a trace on someone.
He's showing as being here - Ted McCabe.
You know him? No, I don't think so.
We're closed. I'm the only one here.
I'd like to have a little look around, if that's alright with you.
Sure, come in.
Who is that up there? Must be Dwyer.
This bloody thing must still be working.
You followed me on a job with that thing round your ankle?
You're a bloody idiot. Help!
We're down here! In the...
Check upstairs.
Want a beer while you wait? No, mate.
They can't hear us through the door. It's sound-proof.
Why can't you open it?
Because he bolted it from the outside.
Well, Dwyer will know I'm down here. He'll come and have a look.
Maybe not. There's a beer cellar and a basement in this pub.
Dwyer won't know that. Shit.
Watch out.
What are you doing? Looking for a way out.
What's that? It's a trapdoor.
It says he's right here.
GPS locator sometimes has a shit fit.
I'll have to do a full reboot.
Usually comes good after that. Sorry to bother you, mate.
No worries, fellas.
It's filling up fast.
Let's try down there.
What was that?
Bloody rat.
What are these floating things here? Don't ask.
Where can this tunnel be heading? No idea.
Bondi, maybe?
Oh, shit. Holy shit!
You shot? No.
In here!
Hi, I'm Margaret McCabe.
I'm Ted's wife. Ted's gone.
He's broken his house arrest. Is he here?
Ah, no, he's...
Oh.
Do you want to come in? Yeah.
Is he behind us? I don't know.
We might have lost him.
This must lead somewhere.
It's going straight to voicemail. Ted's not answering either.
And you don't know where they are?
Ted was here earlier and he said something about
Lennie knowing where the Sterling Nickle money was.
Oh, my God.
There's gotta be an outlet down there somewhere.
No, keep going.
Hold on! What's this?
Here. This is good.
It's a manhole. Yeah.
Get the bugger. OK, work your magic.
I can't. Why not?
'Cause Gary took my picks. Shit.
You got a pin or something? I got nothing.
The one time I really need you to pick a lock,
you're as useless as tits on a bull.
We can't go back there. It's completely flooded.
Oh, there's got to be a mistake.
Tracker's saying they're somewhere around here, boss.
Oh, this bloody thing is not working.
For the record, I want you to know
I still hate your guts for what you did to my daughter.
Did you watch that tape to the end? I watched what Dwyer showed me.
Listen, if you'd watched it till the end,
you would have seen that I backed off.
I told her I wouldn't lay any charges.
Easy for you to say that now.
Lennie, I found her a place in rehab.
She wanted to get clean for Shannon. She wanted you to be proud of her.
And then she just...
She never turned up and I found out the next day that she'd died.
I'm really sorry, Lennie.
Yeah, well, maybe you're not as big a dickhead as I thought.
Well, you have your moments too.
So this is it? This is how... how it's gonna end?
Yeah, I reckon. I reckon this could be it, Lennie.
We gave it a good shot, didn't we? Yeah.
Yeah, we did, mate. We did.
Ow! What's that?
You just pricked me with something. What?
What's that? Hang on, I got it.
It's a safety pin! Hold this! Yeah, yeah.
Hold it! I got it.
Come on, Lennie. Away you go.
Bring it over here. Yeah.
Bring it over. Alright, mate.
You right? Ah, hold it!
Yeah, yeah, I got it.
Come on, Lennie. Come on, ya bastard!
It's filling up fast!
Mal. I'm not dealing with this bloody thing anymore...
Mal!
Here ya go.
I know who it is.
He's holed up in there.
Just him and a shotgun.
He knows he's got no hope.
I need to go in there. That's the bloke that shot me.
There is no way. Mal, you owe me this.
It's been 12 years.
Ted, I know how you're feeling
but there is no way I can justify letting a civilian in there.
They'll throw the book at me. You can understand that.
Side door's unlocked.
Hey, no! No! No!
Hey, Gaz.
Gonna sit down, mate? OK?
I've had a lot of beers here, Gaz.
Would never have picked you as a crim type.
Why'd you do it?
The pub.
I got the pub.
Millions of dollars. I mean, you could have done anything.
You could have gone anywhere. You buy a bloody pub?
That's a distinct lack of imagination, Gaz.
The pub belonged to my family, Len.
It was three generations before the old man lost it.
No, it was about getting back something that belonged to me.
Why'd you shoot me, Gary? Why'd you shoot me at the heist?
You weren't s'posed to be there. Cops were s'posed to be miles away.
I panicked and...
It wasn't personal.
Oh, he took it personally, believe me.
Why all the killing, Gary?
Kurt Meeks was the killer?
He was the smart one. He set the whole job up.
He had the inside man. Knew the armoured car route.
He said afterwards that we couldn't trust the gang.
Like, they'd roll on us eventually and... and so he did.
He took 'em all out, one by one.
So then Kurt pisses off to Thailand and lives in luxury,
leaves you to it.
Yeah, yeah, we were doing fine till you fellas showed up.
But you took out Rick.
I didn't want to.
Kurt ordered it.
You do everything that Kurt tells you to do?
He was my brother. Half-brother.
You know, I was the older but he was always bossing me around.
You know, telling me what to do, even when we were kids.
And when he went to Thailand, it was just me.
You know, here, handling everything.
And after Nutley and Rick were gone...
..he told me to get rid of you, both of ya.
And if I'd done it properly, it would have been the end of it.
Oh, shit.
But I buggered it up, didn't I?
Don't even think about it.
Drop it, Ted. Hand it over.
Cuff him.
My name is Edward McCabe and you are under arrest for murder,
attempted murder and armed robbery. Do you understand?
You do not have to do or say anything
that may lead to an incrimination in a court of law.
Do you understand?
I think he understands.
I'll take it from here, Ted.
Marg?
Oh, Zac, it's you.
Have you checked your computer lately?
What? You old people.
Technology, it's part of daily life. It needs to be embraced.
Moving my bowels is part of daily life too.
Doesn't mean I embrace that.
Make yourself at home, Zac. Thank you.
What is that? Your savings account.
It's the money that Kurt Meeks stole from us.
Yes, all of it. You got it back.
Zac, mate, I'm...
It is possible that I may have underestimated you.
You are a genius!
Lennie! You OK?
I'm alive.
Oh...
Marg. You're back.
Well, I've just come to get a few bits and pieces.
Marg, listen. The case is over. It's finished.
Well, I don't think that case is ever going to be over
and that's the whole problem. Look.
What? Two tickets to Paris.
Where'd you get those from?
Zac got into Kurt Meeks' accounts and got all our money back. All of it.
It's over, I promise.
I'm no good without you.
You've gotta give me another chance, Marg.
Come here, darl.
Come on. Oh, Ted.
Better get your bag packed.
So you're finally going on your trip to Europe.
Yep, can't stay long. We're flying out in a few hours.
How'd you get Dwyer to let you off the leash?
Well, he dropped the charges, as he should.
What about you? What are you going to do?
Anything I like, now I'm a 150 grand richer.
Might even get a new jacket.
How're you going to change that? I'll just sell it.
Except of course these coins are marked.
And even if you melt them down,
the cops are going to be watching you like a hawk.
You know that, don't you?
If you try and spend this money, they'll be onto you.
You might even end up doing another 12 years.
Or worse.
You really know how to spoil a party, don't ya?
I'm just saying, if you want to keep this money,
you're going to have to smuggle it out of the country.
Head off overseas.
So, that's what I'll do.
What about Shannon?
What are you gettin' at?
Now that she's finally found some family.
Someone to look after her, someone to love.
You're just going to piss off overseas and leave her behind.
Can't you just shut up for once?
It's funny, you know. I thought...
I was thinking that maybe you might have changed.
But then again, a leopard can't change its spots, can it?
You're like a bloody blowfly!
You're gonna have to decide, Lennie.
What are you gonna to?
Heads, I stay.
Tails, I go.
