[faint clanking]

181
00:17:32,302 --> 00:17:34,721
- [dog whines]
- It's OK, Toby.

182
00:19:09,941 --> 00:19:13,027
[barking]

183
00:19:15,154 --> 00:19:18,157
- [car door closes]
- [Clem] Alice!

184
00:19:18,158 --> 00:19:20,493
- [barking]
- Alice!

185
00:19:21,578 --> 00:19:25,164
- [barking continues]
- Alice... Alice!

186
00:19:27,709 --> 00:19:29,460
[Agnes] Alice!

187
00:19:30,712 --> 00:19:31,837
[Clem] Alice!

188
00:19:31,838 --> 00:19:34,382
- [Agnes shouts indistinctly]
- [Clem] Come back!

189
00:19:39,220 --> 00:19:41,139
- [Agnes] Clem!
- [breathes rapidly]

190
00:19:41,140 --> 00:19:43,203
[Agnes] Alice!

191
00:19:43,204 --> 00:19:45,267
[Clem] Alice!

192
00:19:45,268 --> 00:19:47,687
- [indistinct shouting]
- [footsteps approach]

193
00:19:47,688 --> 00:19:49,355
[Clem] Alice!

194
00:19:57,196 --> 00:19:59,949
[siren wails]

195
00:20:07,999 --> 00:20:10,209
[phone beeps and buzzes]

196
00:20:14,422 --> 00:20:16,257
Hi, sweetheart. What's going on?

197
00:20:16,258 --> 00:20:18,530
- [sirens wail]
- A fire.

198
00:20:18,531 --> 00:20:20,803
- At the Hart house.
- What?

199
00:20:20,804 --> 00:20:22,847
Agnes was just here.

200
00:20:24,891 --> 00:20:26,684
Call you when I know a bit more.

201
00:20:44,243 --> 00:20:46,496
[sirens wail]

202
00:20:57,674 --> 00:20:59,154
[sirens continue]

203
00:20:59,155 --> 00:21:00,634
[Woman] Alice.

204
00:21:00,635 --> 00:21:02,595
Alice, can you hear me?

205
00:21:06,599 --> 00:21:09,435
[indistinct conversation]

206
00:21:11,229 --> 00:21:13,856
[equipment beeps]

207
00:21:15,316 --> 00:21:16,693
[Woman] Sally?

208
00:21:17,860 --> 00:21:19,904
I didn't know you were friends
with the Harts.

209
00:21:19,905 --> 00:21:21,510
Oh...

210
00:21:21,511 --> 00:21:23,115
A bit.

211
00:21:23,116 --> 00:21:24,826
Well, it's good of you to be here.

212
00:21:30,123 --> 00:21:34,419
They're taking her to theatre.
Alice is already upstairs.

213
00:22:25,678 --> 00:22:28,890
- [clanking]
- [men call indistinctly]

214
00:22:31,809 --> 00:22:34,395
[indistinct radio chatter]

215
00:22:45,782 --> 00:22:48,409
[radio chatter continues]

216
00:23:01,255 --> 00:23:04,092
[exhales sharply]

217
00:23:05,510 --> 00:23:08,137
[air hisses]

218
00:23:24,529 --> 00:23:26,364
[inhales shakily]

219
00:23:27,949 --> 00:23:30,451
[whispers] What the hell happened
out there?

220
00:23:36,999 --> 00:23:38,835
Is this our fault?

221
00:23:43,756 --> 00:23:44,882
[knocking]

222
00:23:46,092 --> 00:23:47,218
[Sally] Agnes...

223
00:24:43,232 --> 00:24:46,527
[music box plays tinny melody]

224
00:24:55,077 --> 00:24:56,078
[music stops]

225
00:25:04,503 --> 00:25:06,380
Just brings it all back.

226
00:25:08,716 --> 00:25:10,343
Being at that hospital.

227
00:25:13,679 --> 00:25:16,307
She's in the same room
that Gemma died...

228
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:20,895
I know.

229
00:25:36,953 --> 00:25:39,497
[birds call]

230
00:25:42,792 --> 00:25:45,502
So we have two fires,
one in the shed.

231
00:25:45,503 --> 00:25:49,799
And the other, which killed Clem,
started here, in the child's bedroom.

232
00:25:51,217 --> 00:25:54,804
An accelerant's been used,
most likely kerosene.

233
00:27:04,874 --> 00:27:06,709
[John] Excuse me!

234
00:27:08,461 --> 00:27:11,380
Uh, this is a crime scene.
I have to ask you to leave.

235
00:27:14,633 --> 00:27:17,094
I'm Clem's mother, June.

236
00:27:18,846 --> 00:27:20,348
I want to see my son.

237
00:27:21,932 --> 00:27:24,226
And I want to see his family.

238
00:27:24,227 --> 00:27:27,604
[beeping]

239
00:27:27,605 --> 00:27:30,483
[Woman] Alice still isn't conscious.

240
00:27:30,484 --> 00:27:32,109
But you can talk to her.

241
00:27:33,486 --> 00:27:35,446
She can probably hear you.

242
00:27:52,254 --> 00:27:56,258
[whispers] Butterfly bush.
Butterfly Bush.

243
00:27:56,259 --> 00:27:58,761
Means second chances.

244
00:28:03,307 --> 00:28:04,974
[Man] She has multiple fractures.

245
00:28:04,975 --> 00:28:08,521
Her right lung is collapsed, and there's
damage to her trachea from, um,

246
00:28:08,522 --> 00:28:09,729
from a trauma.

247
00:28:09,730 --> 00:28:11,273
What kind of trauma?

248
00:28:12,691 --> 00:28:14,777
Looks like she's been choked.

249
00:28:16,654 --> 00:28:18,738
And the baby?

250
00:28:18,739 --> 00:28:21,470
We had him airlifted to
a neonatal unit in Sydney,

251
00:28:21,471 --> 00:28:24,203
but realistically,
a baby born at 25 weeks, 700 grams,

252
00:28:24,204 --> 00:28:26,664
without his mother...

253
00:28:27,748 --> 00:28:29,375
...the outlook isn't good.

254
00:28:30,876 --> 00:28:32,837
When can I bury my son?

255
00:28:35,172 --> 00:28:38,300
Um... Well, maybe we should take a walk.

256
00:28:40,302 --> 00:28:44,265
There'll be a coronial inquest.
It'll be months, I'm afraid.

257
00:28:47,101 --> 00:28:50,354
So... may I ask why you've had
no contact with your son?

258
00:28:55,943 --> 00:28:57,611
Did you know Agnes?

259
00:28:59,780 --> 00:29:01,240
Nope.

260
00:29:02,491 --> 00:29:04,160
And Alice?

261
00:29:05,828 --> 00:29:08,581
Clem sent me a cryptic message
nine years back,

262
00:29:08,582 --> 00:29:10,958
so I assumed there was a child.

263
00:29:12,001 --> 00:29:14,378
But he didn't leave a return address.

264
00:29:18,090 --> 00:29:19,508
Um...

265
00:29:20,718 --> 00:29:24,137
Let me know
when I can make arrangements.

266
00:29:24,138 --> 00:29:26,348
Yeah, of course.
Where are you staying in town?

267
00:29:26,349 --> 00:29:28,100
[June] I'm not.

268
00:29:29,727 --> 00:29:33,022
[baby screams]

269
00:29:45,826 --> 00:29:47,536
She's gone home.

270
00:29:49,371 --> 00:29:52,374
I don't mean to judge... [laughs]

271
00:29:52,375 --> 00:29:54,001
Really?

272
00:29:54,002 --> 00:29:55,628
What a cow.

273
00:29:58,547 --> 00:30:00,591
What's gonna happen to the kids?

274
00:30:04,011 --> 00:30:08,557
They need... They need someone
to care whether they live or die.

275
00:30:08,558 --> 00:30:12,228
Yeah, um, I'll, uh...
look for another next of kin.

276
00:30:41,340 --> 00:30:43,926
[birds call]

277
00:31:09,034 --> 00:31:10,035
[dog barks]

278
00:31:17,543 --> 00:31:19,670
[inhales sharply]

279
00:31:21,088 --> 00:31:23,090
[sighs]

280
00:31:28,512 --> 00:31:31,390
[sobs]

281
00:31:44,528 --> 00:31:48,782
Agnes is dead, too.
They're both gone.

282
00:31:51,243 --> 00:31:53,162
I think he did it.

283
00:31:54,330 --> 00:31:57,374
- [Woman] What about the girl?
- In a coma.

284
00:31:57,375 --> 00:31:59,792
And the baby?

285
00:31:59,793 --> 00:32:01,420
Not going to make it.

286
00:32:03,339 --> 00:32:05,799
Oh, my darlin', I'm so sorry.

287
00:32:08,093 --> 00:32:11,096
- [inhales]
- We need to tell Candy.

288
00:32:13,891 --> 00:32:16,101
It'd be better coming from you.

289
00:32:55,808 --> 00:32:57,768
[sniffles]

290
00:33:01,730 --> 00:33:03,649
[sobs quietly]

291
00:33:05,359 --> 00:33:06,694
Mum?

292
00:33:17,538 --> 00:33:19,206
[shakily] Who died?

293
00:33:31,468 --> 00:33:33,178
[door opens]

294
00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:41,228
What are you doing?

295
00:33:43,021 --> 00:33:45,106
She's not coming back.

296
00:33:45,107 --> 00:33:48,693
No point keeping it for her.

297
00:33:48,694 --> 00:33:52,906
You can't just erase Agnes
like you did Clem, June.

298
00:33:52,907 --> 00:33:55,033
And you can't erase their child either.

299
00:33:55,034 --> 00:33:57,139
She's our granddaughter!

300
00:33:57,140 --> 00:33:59,245
The best hope that child has

301
00:33:59,246 --> 00:34:02,499
is to get as far away from this family
as she can.

302
00:34:04,501 --> 00:34:06,670
Don't try and change my mind.

303
00:34:15,512 --> 00:34:18,182
[clattering]

304
00:34:30,235 --> 00:34:32,446
I know you love stories.

305
00:34:35,866 --> 00:34:37,493
What shall we read?

306
00:34:42,623 --> 00:34:44,124
"Bluebeard"?

307
00:34:47,085 --> 00:34:48,503
Nope.

308
00:34:48,504 --> 00:34:50,798
Bluebeard can fuck right off.

309
00:34:55,677 --> 00:34:58,680
Rumpelstiltskin can...

310
00:34:58,681 --> 00:35:00,390
get lost too.

311
00:35:13,904 --> 00:35:16,907
[whispers] I know this was
one of your mom's favourites.

312
00:35:19,117 --> 00:35:21,829
At least it has a semi-happy ending.

313
00:35:29,336 --> 00:35:32,923
"A long time ago on
the wild Scottish coast,

314
00:35:32,924 --> 00:35:35,509
"the selkies lived proud and free,

315
00:35:35,510 --> 00:35:37,635
"part seal, part human,

316
00:35:37,636 --> 00:35:41,473
"singing their magical songs
with the voices of angels."

317
00:35:41,474 --> 00:35:44,017
- [barking]
- [laughs]

318
00:35:47,521 --> 00:35:48,604
Good boy.

319
00:35:48,605 --> 00:35:51,503
- [indistinct shouting]
- [Clem] Fuck you!

320
00:35:51,504 --> 00:35:54,402
- [shouting]
- [Sally] "Every full moon,

321
00:35:54,403 --> 00:35:58,031
"the selkies would come to the surface
to shed their seal skins,

00:35:58,032 --> 00:36:01,784
"and dance, naked, under the moonlight.

323
00:36:01,785 --> 00:36:04,329
- "One night..."
- [Alice] "...a fisherman hid away.

324
00:36:04,330 --> 00:36:07,790
"He saw one seal woman so beautiful

325
00:36:07,791 --> 00:36:11,420
"that he wanted to have her
all for himself."

326
00:36:21,638 --> 00:36:24,391
[Sally] "So while she danced
with her sisters,

327
00:36:24,392 --> 00:36:27,060
"the fishermen stole her sealskin."

328
00:36:28,186 --> 00:36:29,645
Arsehole.

329
00:36:29,646 --> 00:36:32,065
How did she get out of her skin?
Was there blood?

330
00:36:32,066 --> 00:36:35,277
[exhales] Alice, let me read.

331
00:36:35,278 --> 00:36:36,319
OK!

332
00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:40,699
[Agnes] "When it was time for the
sisters to return to the sea..."

333
00:36:40,700 --> 00:36:41,783
Alice.

334
00:36:49,541 --> 00:36:51,752
Come and have a look, poppet.

335
00:36:53,170 --> 00:36:55,714
I even carved
some of your favourite flowers.

336
00:37:04,056 --> 00:37:06,016
It's red river gum.

337
00:37:17,402 --> 00:37:19,696
Well, I take it that means you like it.

338
00:37:24,242 --> 00:37:26,995
[Sally] "So the selkie woman
went with the fisherman,

339
00:37:26,996 --> 00:37:30,457
"and, over time, she fell in love.

340
00:37:31,667 --> 00:37:35,879
"They had... two beautiful children,

341
00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:38,131
"a girl and a boy.

Alice!

346
00:38:02,614 --> 00:38:03,907
It's OK.

347
00:38:05,075 --> 00:38:06,868
Deep breaths now, Alice.

348
00:38:08,537 --> 00:38:10,580
Deep breaths.

349
00:38:24,428 --> 00:38:25,846
Alice...

350
00:38:28,390 --> 00:38:29,933
There was a fire.

351
00:38:31,101 --> 00:38:32,644
At your home.

352
00:38:34,187 --> 00:38:37,356
A terrible, terrible fire.

353
00:38:37,357 --> 00:38:40,360
[breathes shakily] I'm...
I'm sorry, Alice.

354
00:38:42,404 --> 00:38:46,533
Your mummy and your dad
didn't make it.

355
00:38:46,534 --> 00:38:47,826
[sniffles softly]

356
00:38:55,500 --> 00:38:58,211
I'm so, so sorry, sweetheart.

357
00:39:03,675 --> 00:39:05,844
[sniffles]

358
00:39:09,681 --> 00:39:11,641
