NARRATOR: Previously on Hunted...
(INTERCOM RINGS)
Come out, come out, wherever you are.
They're here. They're here. The Hunters are here.
..the first Fugitives were swiftly secured.
Go, go, go! (SHOUTING)
(CHEERING)
NARRATOR: An Instagram live taunt...
You want to take your mask off, mate?
Where are they?
Whoo!
..saw Byron and Tanase
slip through their fingers.
One of those days.
NARRATOR: And while Ben and Callum declared cyberwarfare...
They're trying to hack us. It's definitely personal now.
So we've already pissed 'em off. That's good. That's good.
..coach and boxer duo Glenn and Taylah...
Please keep locked on to that dark blue Chevy.
Just hoping that Glenn and Taylah are still in that vehicle.
..kept the Hunters on their toes.
Oh, please be them.
Negative, mate.
Pissed me off now.
Bye, Hunters.
NARRATOR: Megan and Gracie's high-flying tactics...
Red-blooded North Queenslanders. Let's get 'em in the bag.
..weren't enough to keep the Hunters from closing in.
Go, go, go, go, go!
NARRATOR:Now, with 18 days left on the run...
Stop there. Stop there. You've been hunted down.
Yes! ..just 17 Fugitives remain.
Where's Megan?
NARRATOR:Who will be next to be captured?
(SIGHS)
The Hunters have just come, and, um...
..I'm just shit-scared right now.
Um, they're...
..I think they've got Gracie.
She's got everything.
She's got my jumper, water, food.
She's got our book.
They're gonna know every move I'm gonna make.
So literally, I'm back at square one. I've got nothing.
I'm just gonna have to rely on strangers.
I need to do this. Oh, my God.
NARRATOR: In Winchelsea, Victoria,
the net is tightening on Fugitive Megan
after a surprise ambush from the Hunters
saw her niece, Gracie, captured.
Where's Megan? (SIGHS)
Not gonna tell you. Where is she? Where's Megan?
Where'd she go? I'm not telling you even if I knew.
Sure you don't to tell me where she went?
Positive, mate.
I really hope she got away.
NARRATOR: Megan is hiding 500 metres from the capture site.
Oh, just jump in, mate. Jump in.
NARRATOR: But Alpha and Bravo are already on the hunt.
(PHONES RING) Confirm, Alpha, Bravo.
We still need Megan.
Yeah, mate, uh...
..Marco and I are in a vehicle, mate.
We're scouring the streets north.
Nikki and Blue are on foot.
But we don't have eyes on yet.
OK, roger that.
She's got nothing on her, so even if she does manage to get away,
like, this isn't gonna last.
Like, four Ground Hunters, one Fugitive.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah. We're in the area.
This is good odds.
Mate, she was legging it.
And they're fit, mate. They do F45. I know she's 50, but...
Oh, so, one report, she's gone south.
Other one's saying north-east.
So we're not quite sure where on foot yet, Chief, in this area.
Yeah, OK.
So she's jumped over and come this way, right?
Definitely come this way. Yep.
The question is, where has she ended up?
Have you seen a lady come running through here at all?
Older lady, blonde hair?
Nope?
Sorry to interrupt. Did you see a female running along here?
Nope. No worries.
Have you seen a lady running up and down the road at all?
Nope? Thank you.
Yeah. No, we've asked lots of people, mate.
No-one seems to have actually ID'd her at this stage.
So we might go across the road,
I reckon the other side of the freeway.
We just need to maintain that circumference, that pressure,
so she can't run.
What about here? That's where Blue is now.
He's checking all this. Right.
HQ, Bravo.
No change on the ground.
Those toilets are open, mate.
We're just checking the public toilets, Ben.
Roger.
We're just doing everything we can, mate, to clear those areas.
Toilets are clear.
I reckon you would have picked her up in the car
doing them local routes.
She could be just laying low. Yeah, I think so.
So we just...
She might just be static, waiting for us to get out the area.
I think if she was still running on them streets,
we would have, uh, stumbled across her by now
or a member of the public would have alerted us
when you've been asking questions, but we've had none of that.
She's gonna have to pop her head up at some point.
(SIGHS)
I'm trying to calm my nerves. I'm trying to calm my mind.
I'm feeling very shaky.
Yeah, I don't know.
(SIGHS)
Just thinking of something just to flush her out and make her move.
Yeah. OK.
Um, urgent request for a drone, please.
We will frighten her out of the trees.
Yeah. Good call, Chief.
MEGAN: They're not gonna give up.
Even if they leave, they're not gonna...
..stop looking.
I know I'm gonna have to run for it.
I just don't know when.
All ground units, all ground units, this is Ops.
We have approval for drone.
(DRONES BUZZ)
MEGAN: I know they're circling. I can hear them.
Helicopters or drones or something.
(EXHALES)
I got to go. I got to go. I've seen 'em.
(PANTS) I'm gonna go.
Is that her?
Stand by. We think we have her. Stand by. Stand by. Go, go, go!
Eyes on. We've got eyes on!
Roger that. Positive ID. Go, go, go!
Yeah, she's on the move! She's on the move!
Stand by!
There she is.
Let's go. Let's go.
Megan, stop there!
Megan! Stop there, Megan!
Come on. Go, go, go!
Running into a dead end. Over. Go down.
Come on! She's got nowhere to go.
Nowhere to go, mate. Megan, stop where you are.
You've got nowhere to go.
Megan, your time on the run is over.
You've been hunted down.
Yes!
We're back. Well done, guys.
(LAUGHTER AND CHATTER)
Yes.
Megan and Gracie.
Hey. How you going? Hey.
Thanks for, uh, trying so hard, but, uh...
Definitely know how to make a girl's heart beat fast. Yeah.
I've just got to tell you, you know, uh,
sometimes your best just isn't good enough.
(BOTH LAUGH)
Next time, we'll try and knock your socks off.
Today was not our day.
You know, I think we were so focused on getting away from them,
we didn't think of our future moves well enough.
Yep.
I think, um...you know, sharing this experience with...with Gracie,
I don't think anyone else will ever understand what we've been through.
So we just have that between us,
a nice little connection, as, um, aunty and niece.
Sisters. I mean sisters. (LAUGHS)
Take it. Yeah.
(LAUGHS)
NARRATOR: With Megan and Gracie
captured, 16 Fugitives
remain on the run.
They have 17 days left
to evade the Hunters
and win a share of $100,000.
Good job, mate. Well done.
Megan and Gracie are in the bag. It's a fantastic feeling.
Elation. For that five seconds, I really, really enjoyed it.
But now we've just got to be back on task.
There's no time to rest. We've still got a bunch of Fugitives to go.
OK, Hunters, can we just gather round the centre console
for the, uh, muster, please?
Yes, Chief. Chief.
Yes, Chief! Yes, Chief.
I want to go through these Fugitives
asap.
OK, so, purpose of this is just to hit our hot points,
just to make sure that we can still trace down the priorities.
OK. We'll go through the Fugitives.
I want to start off with Sonja and Elerrina.
Um...so I have a little bit about Elerrina.
So she's actually a Triple M radio host
up in Bundaberg right now.
She won't be able to stay away from the microphone or the screen
if she gets an opportunity, would be my pick.
(LAUGHS)
I do not think the Hunters' planning sessions
are as relaxing as this.
I couldn't even imagine them having
a spa in HQ.
After this, when we've won, we can just give them some ideas.
Like, maybe if they were in the spa, they'd find us,
'cause there'd be more... less stress.
(BOTH LAUGH)
Uh, Tharren and Jordan.
What have we got in relation to these two?
We know they're, obviously,
dad, son, Jordan, Victoria-based,
the networks he's got,
probably they're exploiting more than Tharren's.
And this one's just a little bit more off the beaten track.
I don't think we're on their radar yet.
Um, so we know that Jordan has a wife, Elise.
Jordan also has, uh, recently had a child.
There's a lot of photos on... on social media.
I now know who Jordan looks like. He looks like Jimmy Giggle.
You look better, though.
With the mo? Yeah.
Oh, thanks.
Yeah.
Like I said, my wife will hate it. (BOTH LAUGH)
Has anyone got anything new in relation to Holly and Joshua?
We know Josh is a paramedic.
We decided yesterday
that we would really focus on that paramedic network,
'cause we think it's a reliable source of assistance.
Generally, paramedics have a rotation, four on, four off.
You know, they've got their days off at different times.
So I'm wondering if that plays into their strategy right now,
where they're just jumping from one to the other.
So if we can get track on some other people of interest
that are paramedics within this group,
that may lead us there too.
Hello! Hello, Joel.
Hi! Sorry to surprise you.
That's alright.
I was wondering... Yes.
..could we stay here for the night?
Any chance? In your backyard?
Yeah, you probably can.
Yes? Yay! Oh. We'll tent up.
Really? Thank you.
Oh! You're the best, Joel.
I love you, buddy.
And finally...
..Glenn and Taylah.
Sure.
The last sighting we had was a technical sighting in Bendigo.
Are they in the same location?
Probably not.
The...the massive question mark with Glenn and Taylah is
are they still using Phil's work fleet?
Glenn and Taylah's access to vehicles,
I've seen nothing like it, so we know
that they generally have it, dump it, get another one.
They've got more cars than Batman at the moment.
Commando shit.
Lucky I wore the cargoes today.
NARRATOR: After ditching their last vehicle
just before the Hunters intercepted it,
trainer and boxer Glenn and Taylah are still hiding out in Bendigo,
130km north-west of Melbourne.
Tay. Coming.
Here. No, stay.
If a drone comes, make sure you're under a tree.
OK.
NARRATOR: Sticking with their strategy
of constantly swapping cars,
they plan to drive themselves out of Bendigo,
closer to their boxing network down south.
Oh. Headlights. Headlights.
The moments like this, when they're on our feet,
I actually feel the best.
People definitely underestimate me, um, because of the way I look.
I'm very small.
I'm 52 kilos and a little blonde girl,
so people don't really assume me to be a threat.
There's a car.
White.
I'll sneak through and then I'll tell 'em the plan.
Stay right along the fence line.
Even when I was trying to get into the Commonwealth Games,
I was the biggest underdog going into the event.
And then, when I came out and won the whole competition,
it was a...definitely a big upset.
It definitely gives me additional, um, motivation
to prove the Hunters wrong.
It's more of the... the sweet scent of victory.
To be honest, I'm proud of Tay.
I've just watched her make really confident decisions.
There. (PANTS)
And, uh...
..if there's a Hunter team in the area,
there's gonna be a footrace on,
it's probably better her to be in that footrace than me.
(PANTS)
Hey.
I think she's got him. I think she's got him.
Straight ahead? Yeah.
Hang on. They're coming back. They're coming back.
Oh! Thank gosh it was you.
(LAUGHS)
Put the bags straight in.
So, those are your two keys, alright? Yep? Yep.
Come on. Glenn, grab the bags.
We can't stay here for too long.
Hold my...
Oh, gosh. That was a long sprint.
(LAUGHS) These guys are legends.
(LAUGHS)
Thank you so much.
NARRATOR: Back at HQ,
with the leads on Glenn and Taylah going cold...
Right, this is a magnet.
..the Hunters are delving back into their diverse networks.
Seems like Glenn's got really good links in the Victoria area.
So we have a military network here. He's got the sport network here.
We don't even know about Taylah yet, but his network's vast.
Yeah. That's exactly right. Yeah.
NARRATOR: Overseeing the associate intel
is senior principal analyst Leigha Fraser.
Leigha?
I just sent you an associate of Taylah and Glenn.
An email? Yep. Thanks, Carter.
My role as the senior principal analyst within Hunter HQ
is primarily to bring in all of the data.
We make connections between associates.
We build a map very much like a family tree structure,
where we would start with our Fugitives at the top,
and we basically work down until we build a really nice chart
that is easily digestible by all of our lead intelligence.
Jayden Nikorima.
He's the Melbourne Storm football player.
And we know they're in contact.
That network of the Melbourne Storm Rugby League Club's big.
LEIGHA: Glenn and Taylah, they've got a really wide network
of associates and friends.
That makes it a little bit more difficult for us to pin them down.
But we will keep charting and we will keep tracking
and we will get them.
So I've also uploaded a photo of Jayden's fiancee, Christa,
into the Hunters folder, and I'm charting that now as well.
This is a really good lead. This is coming together.
Yeah. That's awesome. Nice one, guys.
We feel we're getting close.
We uncovered several contacts that they've got in the Victoria area,
and we've got the phones on full intercept now.
Alright, so...
..we've got updated charts for Glenn and Taylah.
It is very apparent that Glenn and Taylah are a formidable team.
They're probably the toughest ones that stand out to us at the moment.
I'm not that surprised about the intensity,
and we wanted this level of challenge,
to see just how good they are - we're OK.
I actually think we work best...
Under pressure. ..under pressure.
The longer they stay on the run, the harder it will be for us.
Trust me.
When we're under pressure, every decision we make's
really highly analysed and...
..you know, the best interest of not getting caught.
So, I hope we catch them very soon,
'cause enough is enough.
NARRATOR: At HQ, 72 hours into the run,
there's one team who have been completely off the radar.
Edward and James.
I'm hearing more sound from crickets than I am intelligence.
What's going on? Not a lot, Chief.
At the moment, we know very little
about what direction of travel, physical locations.
Both out-of-state boys, as we know.
Steph is looking at trying to identify some key individuals
to dig into networks who they might have in Victoria.
Maybe they'll get more and more brazen.
I mean, they're already wearing those shirts, for a start.
Talk to me, Ed. Let me know you're with me.
NARRATOR: Since day one, Fugitive friends Ed and Jimi
have been laying low in Melbourne's east...
I don't feel good. I don't want to be on the main road.
..while a close contact has driven 1,000km
to help them escape the suburbs.
So, at the moment, the plan is, try and meet up with my mum,
who's come down from New South Wales.
I'm going on the run pretty much because I got a call from Jimi
and he asked me to go with him.
(LAUGHS) Um...
Probably safer for us to be in the suburbs. Yep.
We used to work together.
Now, both of us don't have a job.
Um...
We need to put that phone call in to Mum shortly,
just to let her know to start coming in,
either a payphone or a stranger who will let us use their phone.
I was actually head of the gay committee at the office,
and Ed came in.
Hated each other. We clashed.
Ed thought that his position outranked me.
So my only way to really assert my authority
was to tell him he wasn't allowed in the gay committee.
Which he made up, which was him and one other person
who he told what to do and they did all the work.
Who was that that I had? Was Nick.
(BOTH LAUGH)
But now, we're actually really good friends.
Hey. How you doing? I'm good.
My name's Jimi and this is my friend Ed.
We're Fugitives on the run.
Is there any way you could possibly help us
by letting us use your phone to call somebody?
Yes.
There we go. Thank you so much. No worries.
(RECIPIENT'S PHONE RINGS)
WOMAN: Hello. Hey, J...
Mum, it's Jimi.
Can you start making your way in towards a place called Malvern?
And... (HORN HONKS)
M-A-L-V-E-R-N.
Yep.
I have been studying other Fugitives who have been on the run.
If they let their paranoia take advantage of them,
the Hunters use that to flush them out.
So it's knowing when actually to stay still,
rather than let that paranoia see you being caught.
Every time I see, like, a...
..a four-wheel drive or a black car,
I freak a little bit.
How do you make that decision? We hide under a bush.
(BOTH LAUGH)
There's a black car.
Yep.
When my mum picks us up, she's just got no eyebrows and hair done.
Make sure you tell her how good they're looking, OK?
Alright. I will. Yeah. (LAUGHS)
(VEHICLE APPROACHES) OK.
JoJo inbound.
Come here. Come here.
I'll make first contact.
I'll let you know when to come, Ed.
One sec.
Hold, hold, hold.
Is there anyone?
No-one. Wait for me. I'll give you the all-OK.
OK. Ed, come.
Thank you so much. Hello.
Good to go out? Let's go, Mum.
Also, Jo, I do want to say
how lovely your hair and eyebrows are looking.
(LAUGHS) No, stop it. You're looking very beautiful.
NARRATOR: In HQ, Victorian gamers Ben and Callum
have frustrated the Hunters since day one,
in particular, the cyber team.
Can't believe they're trying to (BLEEP) with us this bad.
So there's this person of interest, Sarah.
Yep. Um... That is Callum.
Yep. I think that's his partner.
One thing I've learnt, being in the intelligence community,
is you never mess with the cyber team, and that's exactly
what Ben and Callum done.
They don't come across as scary people,
but they scare me more than anyone in this room.
And they're gonna get their own back on 'em.
Ooh!
Seems like Callum lives with Ben and his partner, Sarah.
'Cause there's a message where she's saying
that she left a bowl of noodles in the fridge
to both of them.
OK. This is excellent.
I'd like to see inside their house
and see if they have, like, other computers,
because then if we could get access to those computers,
we can hack into their systems.
OK.
Today, we're going to Callum and Ben's house.
Um, we're gonna deploy some devices.
These devices will allow us to have a remote connection
into Callum's PC,
and from there, we'll be able to intercept any communications,
um, potentially between Sarah and Callum while he's on the run.
I'm so keen to get in Ben's house. (BOTH LAUGH)
It's absolutely become personal between cyber and Ben and Callum.
They've brought the game to us, so we're gonna play back.
NARRATOR: Ben and Callum have been relying
on friends of friends for help,
and despite being in close proximity,
they're yet to reach out to Callum's fiancee.
We haven't seen each other for a while, so it's always on my mind,
especially since last night.
We were so close to home. We were 5-minute drive.
We drove pretty much straight past her. So, yeah, that was hard.
I met my fiancee, Sarah, seven years ago,
and we've been engaged for a bit over a year.
We want to get married eventually,
but at the moment, it is very expensive.
So winning would definitely benefit both of us in affording a wedding.
21 days will be the longest we've been separated, so...
..that will definitely be on my mind.
I know that it's very, very dangerous to go home, so, um...
..yeah, we'll just have to hold off, wait a little bit longer.
Sarah's such an obvious and close contact to us.
She'll definitely get a visit in the next few days, that's for sure.
(VIDEO CALL RINGS)
Righto, team. Deployment orders.
We're looking at Fugitives Callum and Ben.
Moving now.
NARRATOR: Teams Delta and Charlie have been given the order
to visit Callum's fiancee, Sarah,
along with intel officer Steph
as she goes undercover.
Game on.
So, what's your plan? OK.
So, I'm gonna be the ditzy admin assistant.
We will try and distract her with questioning,
'cause we want to know as much about Callum and Ben as possible.
Thanks, guys. Cheers.
Good luck. See how we go. Thank you.
(KNOCKING)
Hi. Hi. Sarah?
Hi! How you going?
Good. How are you? Good. I'm Kim.
Is it possible to come in and, uh... Uh, you can.
Just want to make sure the boys aren't here. That's all.
Oh, yeah. No, I haven't seen them. Yeah, yeah? Where have they gone?
No idea?
Can we just have a little walk around?
(CAMERA CLICKS)
So, what's your job? I'm an engineer.
Oh, my goodness! (LAUGHS) Yeah.
Callum's a vet nurse? Yep.
Yep? And where does Ben work? He works in IT.
Well, that must be smart. I don't know anything about computers, so...
Yeah. You're all so clever.
That's why there's so many in this house.
Oh, my goodness! Which one's yours? That's mine.
OK, that's...that's yours? Um... Yep.
Oh, wow. Look at this.
OK. Keep the tour going.
Do you have a toilet that I can...?
Um...yeah, there's one just straight through that...
Oh, OK. Straight down there.
Oh, perfect. Thank you.
Is it alright if we take you outside just to have a look at...
Oh, yeah.
(VEHICLE BEEPS) There you go.
Do you want to stay out here with me?
I'm just...'cause it's your... like, you're driving it.
NARRATOR: With the Ground Hunters' plan to distract Sarah in place,
Steph seizes the opportunity to install a remote-access device
into Callum's computer network.
There's ethernet.
What that device allows us to do is to get
covert access to a computer that's on the network there.
And we hope to be able to read emails, see browser history,
and if there's any active, uh, conversations
that are happening with the Fugitives,
we'll be able to see that as well.
Hey, Carter. Have you guys got a pingback yet?
Not yet.
They're having a great old chat. You're all good.
Do you guys co-own this vehicle or...
Uh...no. I think it's entirely under Cal's name.
Hold on. Let me have a look for another hub. Yes.
Definitely not online. No.
It's the right network, because we had the IP address of
Callum's computer.
(BLEEP)! OK.
So before our call, it was online, but something disconnected it.
That's just plugged back in now. OK.
It'll take about 45 seconds to boot up.
Yeah.
She's coming in.
(BLEEP)!
That's just plugged back in now. OK.
It'll take about 45 seconds to boot up.
I can find the charger. Yeah.
Coming in. Coming in. Coming in now.
She's coming in.
She is in.
Come on! Come on! Sarah?
Yep. It is online.
Perfect. Good to go.
OK. We have a connection to the device.
We have command line access.
Nice work. Nice work.
Ben and Callum have sort of thought
that they're gonna be one step ahead up until now.
They have booby-trapped the computers that we have received.
Uh, this is our opportunity to show that we're one better than them.
NARRATOR: As the cyber team get to work
accessing Ben and Callum's computer network,
the mapping of Glenn and Taylah's social network
continues to build pace.
Ben? Sorry to interrupt.
We have a new close associate of Glenn and Taylah.
Thank you. Bravo.
Bravo, roger.
I can guarantee you every person of interest that we have
is on full intercept.
So when that information comes through,
we will definitely throw it your way.
(EXHALES)
It's this one in here.
We'll turn around. Let's go.
NARRATOR: After driving two hours south-east from Bendigo,
Glenn and Taylah are in Melbourne's Eltham,
at a prearranged drop-off point, for their latest getaway car.
Once we've ditched this car, we're not traceable anymore.
You need to go by foot, get lifts, get taxis, just get out of sight.
Paul sent us. This is his car just here.
Do you guys know any way we can get a quick escape out of here?
We need to be out of here asap.
Yeah.
Thank you so much.
We've got to fit the cameraman in as well.
NARRATOR:Their lift secured with a stranger,
Taylah is borrowing their driver's phone to arrange a safe haven
unawarethat many of their associates' phones
have been put on intercept by the Hunters.
Hello. Christa speaking. Hey, Christa. It's Tay and Glenn.
We've been compromised by the Hunters in Bendigo, and...
..we're just a bit stuck.
We're with a stranger in a car that we've just met,
and we're just trying to figure out our next step.
Hey, Ben. This is pressing.
I've just got a confirmation here.
Christa, Jayden's girlfriend,
we had her phone on full intercept.
We've just seen now that there has been a phone call.
I have audio.
Thank you.
Yeah, let's go for that, mate.
We're wondering if you know who
could maybe house us for the night.
Uh...um, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Let me...
..let me speak to...I'll see if I can get you guys with Georgia.
Oh, perfect.
Perfect.
I'll send you the address now.
They're in Richmond. Thank you so much, Christa.
OK. Awesome. Thank you. Bye. OK. Bye.
OK. Could I have everyone's attention, please?
The intel I got from that, Christa has now organised Glenn and Taylah
to stay at Georgia's, in Richmond.
We now need to get everything we possibly can on Georgia
and put basically the kitchen sink at it, Chief,
'cause we've got a run-up for this.
Charlie and Bravo, this is Ops.
Bravo.
Charlie, roger.
You are going to love deployment orders.
You are to vector in to... prepare to copy.
We've got a significant int update on Glenn and Taylah.
It's been a rough ride.
They're making us work for it certainly.
We've got the location.
Number's 403/3.
And that is in Richmond, to the east of the CBD.
Time and distance would dictate they could be in that area as we speak.
Thank you so much for doing that.
We really appreciate it.
We're gonna get these (BLEEP) in the bag today.
You're going down, Glenn.
It's getting wrapped up in the bag, Rabbit.
Hey. (LAUGHS)
How you going? I'm good. How are you?
Good, good.
We are actually one step ahead of them for the first time.
I can't tell you how exciting that is that we could
actually have them in the bag today.
Go down there. Go down there.
Enough is enough with these two.
Come on in, guys. Thank you.
And guess where we're headed. Richmond for a capture.
You seem quite relaxed.
Being stressed is not gonna help in any situation.
Yeah, we're used to going into pretty intense situations,
be it previously from my military career and from Tay's boxing.
Can't let your opponents know if you're struggling or if you're hurt.
This is it.
Eyes on the building now.
Bravo. We have eyes on that complex now.
Yeah, let's go, Bravo.
Come on, boys. Go, Blue.
Yep. We're getting out. Let's go.
Heads up - that address is a large unit complex
with multiple access and egress points.
So it's not gonna be an easy task.
This is a couple of hundred units at least,
maybe four or five towers for us to look at entry and exit points.
Bravo, moving in.
Yep. Here we go. Let's go, boys. Let's go. Go!
We WILL get a Fugitive this operation.
You kind of have to have a poker face in boxing too.
When people punch me in the ring, I smile, so...
(LAUGHS) ..that's...that's, uh...
(LAUGHS)
Yeah, he's in. He's in.
We've made entry through the next door down, Blue.
Move your way down.
Come on! Come on, team!
Let's go. Quick, quick.
So, we're hoping we're in the right tower.
Let's go, guys. We've got to get it in the bag.
403. Over.
We've got 'em locked down. Let's go, team, when ready.
Let's make entry.
Georgia, you home?
Yeah, he's in. He's in.
NARRATOR: Ground Hunters Bravo and Charlie are closing in on Georgia,
who they believe is harbouring Fugitives Glenn and Taylah
at her apartment complex.
403. Over.
Georgia, you home?
Hello? (KNOCKS)
403, right?
Everyone's happy it's 403?
Maybe they're in a different tower.
Let's just regroup.
Can you confirm, is there... is there potential
that there is another 403 apartment,
in another tower?
I'll go and have a look.
Yep. Stand by.
It's a large complex.
There's a potential there is a 403 in each tower,
in which case, we are in the wrong tower.
I've got a letterbox that says 403 down the sideway.
It's a different building.
We're in the wrong tower.
(GROANS)
(SIGHS) That leaves, uh, a number of different options for us.
Charlie and Bravo, go straight to the car park,
straight to the car park.
And do a sweep around, 'cause they might be exiting.
Yep. Down here. Let's go.
Didn't think we were compromised in Bendigo
and then they were at our doorstep, so we're, like...
..they're obviously a lot... like, they have a lot of technology
that we weren't sure they may have had,
and we're not sure how they're getting into things so quickly.
If they tracked the lady who dropped us here,
which is a really strong possibility,
if they're not here by tonight,
they'll be here first thing in the morning.
Bravo. Heading down the fire stairs now, just down to the car park.
So, this should give us access across.
Need to be really cautious going down the stairs.
Yeah, but we should be able to go straight to the basement.
We'll go straight to the car park. Yeah.
Let's go, mate.
Can I grab a banana on the way out, sorry?
Thank you.
I could just see it opening up and they're just standing there.
How do we get to the car park, mate?
Uh, this joint is like Fort Knox. You can do it, boys.
Come on. Let's go. Let's go.
Bronson and George are gonna take us to our next location.
Come on, push!
Come on! Come on!
Fire up now. Let's go, go, go.
Go, boys! Go!
Come on! Let's go, Bravo. Let's get it done.
Howie.
Got eyes on the car park from here.
Received. Just keep...keep, uh... keep where you are, buddy.
We will get them. We will get them.
Yeah, let's also get to the right tower if we can.
(KNOCKING)
Hello?
Glenn. Where are you, Glenn?
(KNOCKING) Come on.
Where are they? Where are they? Where are they?
Uh, there's a possibility they may have got away from us.
(LAUGHS) (LAUGHS)
Just go up a few blocks and hang a left, I reckon.
Yeah. (MESSAGE ALERT CHIMES)
I just got a message - "Did you just hear the door knock?"
One of the neighbours just said there was just a knock at the door.
Holy shit. That means they're there.
Are you kidding? No way.
Oh! Oh, my God!
We just missed the Hunters again. (LAUGHS)
This is out of control.
Mmm.
Holy...
They're really...lucky I said not... let's not stay there.
You're on this, Tay.
Far out!
Tay's literally been a step of them the whole way.
Like...only, like, a quarter of a step ahead, though.
Yeah. Yeah. Not far.
Remember there, I was, like... But you are thinking like it. Yeah.
We get a message through to 'em? Do you know who this is?
This is Taylah Robertson, ranked number one in the world.
(LAUGHS) No.
Far out.
What's happened? Mate, (BLEEP) knows.
Do you reckon they slipped out the back door?
How can they get out?
Stand down. Stand down, stand down.
Charlie, roger.
NARRATOR: With Glenn and Taylah slipping them by seconds...
So we've effectively lost them.
That is a bummer, mate. Absolute bummer.
..a devastated Hunter team must pick up the pieces
and turn to technology once again.
Yeah, this is...at the moment, I'm just putting myself in a position
to cover off both, uh, laneways from that, uh, north-west corner.
Over.
Any cameras that you can identify would be awesome.
Bravo. Good copy.
Glenn and Taylah were a confounded nuisance right from the start.
We've invested a lot of resources and we didn't get a result today.
(SIGHS)
Two Fugitives got away, and that is completely unacceptable.
Now we've just got to be back on task. There's no backing off.
We've just got to keep going.
We're gonna have to divert off.
We need a secondary target. Yes, Chief.
NARRATOR: While the Ground Hunters have been busy
chasing down Glenn and Taylah...
I think Jimi and Ed is gonna need,
like, all hands on deck kind of thing.
..the cyber team have been quietly building a picture
of off-the-radar Fugitives Ed and Jimi
through their surrendered devices.
Oh, my God. That can't be real.
What a cracker.
NARRATOR: But data the Fugitives have left behind
is rousing suspicion.
"So here's the deal for day one.
"Once we get out of town,
"we need to start making our way towards Bendigo."
There is too much information. I don't believe it.
Look - "You're looking at a cheap hotel in Geelong.
"He was looking at Bendigo."
Surely he wouldn't be this dumb.
NARRATOR: So they must separate fact from fiction.
Interesting.
Jimi does appear to be a little bit of a mama's boy.
He's relying on his mum a lot for emotional support.
They tell each other about their day.
So, if that's the case, it's gonna be really difficult
for her not to reach out to him.
What we have discovered in relation to Jimi
is that he's very close with Mum.
They communicate a lot on Facebook Messenger.
Looks like a mummy's boy. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Mum will be missing him.
So, there is the possibility that Mum is going to be helping them.
She stands to be a significant player in this.
Just recently in chat, she unsent about...
..three messages in their group chat,
which is, like, kind of...
Deleted? Yeah.
..which is kind of unusual.
So I reckon Mum will be key today.
We'll find more about Mum.
I'll make sure that we're over the accounts,
see if we can get any more information.
Her home address is in New South Wales, but...
..is she in Victoria or not?
Is she at home or is she in the state of Victoria?
Is she here?
NARRATOR: Meanwhile, Fugitives Ed and Jimi
have travelled one hour south of Melbourne to Rosebud,
on the Mornington Peninsula...
As kids say, we're nearly there.
..and are taking a risk staying at a hotel with Jimi's mum, Joanne.
But it's at the country... it's a golf course as well.
It's actually a resort.
This spot I've got, it's really private.
And there's a fence you can jump over.
And you've booked this place with cash, right?
You pa... you didn't call up and book?
Oh, I did. Oh.
You had to book online.
Let's spend the night with you and just
reassess in the morning what to do.
We want to relax, but...
..we don't know if they know where we are.
They might know that we're here - we...
Yeah. ..we don't know.
Yep.
NARRATOR: Watch every adrenaline-pumping moment
of the thrilling second series of Hunted Australia,
with full episodes on 10 play.
Having been picked up from suburban Melbourne,
Ed and Jimi are taking the risky step
of staying in a Mornington Peninsula country club
booked online by Jimi's mother, Joanne.
Ed, let's just survey our options. What about this plan?
OK, so, hopefully, even if they've tracked us to here, they're not gonna be able to track...
Won't know you've booked a room. ..what room we're in.
So potentially, what we might get you to do is before...
..um, before tonight, move your car to a different spot.
The last thing we want to do is be sitting here right now going,
"Yeah, easy."
100%. "They're nowhere near us."
And...and...and it...it is literally
the number one thing in the back of our minds right now.
Yep.
..is do we wake up tomorrow morning to a bang on the door
because the Hunters are here?
But that's probably a good paranoia to have when you're in this game. Yeah.
They don't even know...they might not even know we're here,
let alone what room we're in, let alone...
Let's be honest. They've probably got no idea about you.
They probably...
..they probably have no idea that you're potentially in Melbourne.
So everything we're doing, this is just in case, I suppose.
Is...everything we're doing is a just-in-case.
It's just me. That's just what I do. I think about it.
Tomorrow's a new day.
We'll...we'll tackle it...
Yeah. ..as it comes.
But for now, I think we can at least breathe a little sigh of relief
a little bit.
I don't want to...
..relax, but, like...
..we can breathe.
NARRATOR: At HQ, the Hunters continue their tireless search
through Ed and Jimi's devices and digital footprint.
He also searched telematics for specific vehicles.
NARRATOR: And Team Cyber has discovered further evidence
of the likelihood of him reaching out for help from his mum.
Ben...
..Jimi's mum, Joanne, we just found out, owns a vehicle.
Jimi looked up that exact model and telematics
in his Google search history.
So he has researched whether Mum's Mazda has telematics or not.
Yep.
Just got some really interesting information.
Jimi was searching the vehicle that is owned by Joanne
and whether or not that vehicle has telematics.
Telematics is a security system, essentially,
that is in most vehicles after the year of 2020.
We can tap into that remotely,
and it will tell us exactly
where they are at this point.
And...it doesn't, I would imagine...
Yeah, I don't think... ..being a 2015 plate.
That vehicle does not have telematics,
which tells us they are happy to use that vehicle.
So, you can bet your arse that she is gonna help them on the run.
It's nice when cyber find that nugget.
It corroborates the fact she WILL be involved...
Yeah...given the fact he's searching it on his search history.
Yeah. She's here. Yeah. Yeah.
It'd just be nice to know WHEN she's gonna be here, what window,
'cause that window will be the window she's helping,
and I'm hoping we haven't missed the window.
Ben. Ben. Ben.
Steph's got something.
We have access to Joanne's emails now.
Oh, beautiful. Yes.
Joanne booked this Fairways Resort
that's where the accommodation is for the country club.
It's out Mornington Peninsula way.
Rosebud Country Club.
So it's where they are. It's where they are right now.
Oh!
I (BLEEP) knew it. Well done.
Come on. Let's go. Let's go.
Team Bravo, this lead is gold dust.
We believe that Jimi's mum, Joanne, has entered the state of Victoria
to assist Ed and Jimi whilst they're on the run.
Can you please start tracking down to Rosebud Country Club?
Big golf resort down there.
Try and find out if Joanne has been there
or is there or due to be there.
Roger.
Ed and Jimi, they might be having a nice time now,
but they'd better make use of it, because it won't last very long.
Tomorrow, we are close to a capture with them, and...
..we really need it.
NARRATOR: While Team Bravo head to the Mornington Peninsula
for an early-morning stakeout...
..16 Fugitives are spending an anxious third night on the run
across Victoria.
(SIGHS)
All of the Fugitives at this point, it would be very difficult
to cope with the level of stress,
the nerves,
thinking about spending another night on the run.
In the beginning, it can be quite exhilarating, very exciting,
but that paranoia, that anxiety,
you know, lack of sleep and fatigue start to set in.
Just got a white car
that's pulled off to the side of the property and...
..couple of people jumped outside.
It's funny how you just...uh!
See, it's the game.
At this stage, signed up to become paranoid.
They know that we're closing in on them.
So it's a level of stress that they haven't experienced yet.
Bravo, HQ. Go, Ben.
When you look on maps, you've got what looks like
the country club house,
and then just slightly to the west, it does look like accommodation.
The address we've got for Joanne is actually the country club address,
not a specific unit, so...
..if you can identify the vehicle,
it doesn't really matter what unit it is.
We can just keep eyes on the vehicle.
Can you send that vehicle description, Ben?
It's a Mazda BT-50.
Good copy. We are six minutes, six minutes out.
Jimi and Ed have been off the radar, like, well and truly off the radar,
and that's putting it lightly.
This is the first bit of intelligence we've got on both of them.
If it comes to fruition, all of that gap that we didn't have,
it doesn't really matter anymore,
because we have them in the bag.
NARRATOR: Meanwhile, at the Rosebud Country Club,
this morning, Ed and Jimi have remained hypervigilant
following Jimi's mum's risky move to book their room online.
There's the black LandCruiser out there.
No, I saw that guy pull up 10 minutes ago.
And an old man got out. OK. Sweet. Yeah, cool.
HQ, Bravo.
We are three minutes, three minutes, out
from the Rosebud Country Club now.
Over. Come on. Let's do this.
Let's go, Bravo. Let's get it done.
We need to get out of here.
I think that's our first...
Yeah. ..plan of attack.
Yeah. We need to not be here, just in case.
Like, I feel... no, I...I...I feel safe-ish.
But...I'd rather not be...
Yeah. ..standing still, just in case.
Just coming in now.
Look for that green Mazda BT-50 belonging to Jimi's mum.
Well, there's a few 20s for you.
Where are you, Jimi?
Reckon he's hiding there, Bluey?
He's gotta be.
OK. Let's keep out of the way of the door when that door opens.
OK. Make sure there's no sign that we're in here.
No bags showing that we're in here.
07... New South Wales plates as well.
Hold, hold.
Did a car just drive past?
Oh, my gosh.
I see potential Hunters!
(BLEEP) me! I'm so stressed.
Hello, mate. It's no sign of that vehicle just yet.
Rabbit is about to go out on foot, talk to the reception.
Work your magic, and...
..really, we need to find out if she's already been
or if she's there.
Go, go, go, go!
And they could be coming to this location right now.
Let's get to the car
and get out of here.
Hello. Hi.
How you going? Great, thanks.
Walk over to your car, drive away.
Come back in. We jump in your car.
Just make sure you're looking to see if anyone's around.
Yep. Yep. Yeah. If anyone's around. Yep.
Alright. Now we wait.
(EXHALES)
NARRATOR: On the Mornington Peninsula...
Work your magic. Go, go, go, go.
..Ground Hunter Team Bravo are requesting access
to the Fugitives' hotel room.
They're just...yeah, there's two people at the moment on the run that we're looking for.
Just make sure you're looking to see if anyone's around. Yep. Yep.
Yeah. If anyone's around. Yep.
Alright. Now we wait.
(EXHALES)
You dropped the key.
Just freaked me out just then. Oh, Mum. Come on.
(LAUGHS)
NARRATOR: At reception, Ground Hunter Marco
is struggling to gain access to the Fugitives' room.
They may be in this area.
The vehicle, uh, belongs to their mother.
We believe they might be in it, travelling in it,
or their mother might be in it waiting.
(EXHALES) Wait and hope that Mum...
Is back soon. ..is back soon.
So Jimi's mum is going to get her car.
But before we jump in the car, she's going to just look around,
double-check, that no-one's following her.
If it's all clear, she's gonna turn around,
come back and beep twice to let us know that it's clear.
I'll just...I'll show you the...
..they're the two we're looking for anyway.
OK. Um...
I'm feeling pretty stressed at the moment, and we need to get away.
(HONKS HORN)
Bag on.
OK. Let's get out of here right now.
OK. Let's go.
Come on, Eddie.
Hey, boys. Nothing suspicious?
Nothing...nothing suspicious.
Head down, just in case.
Yeah, no, that...that's fine.
(SIGHS)
What have you got for me, Bravos?
(EXHALES) Yeah. No joy.
She gave us absolutely nothing.
We might as well search that area until we know otherwise.
Bravo. Good copy.
Jimi and Eddie, eh? Well played so far.
Let's go left here, Ma. OK.
Yep. We're going into the burbs.
And we're gonna make haste on foot.
NARRATOR: With yet another Fugitive team evading capture...
Thanks, Mum. Love you. Oh. Bye-bye, sweetheart.
..pressure is mounting at HQ.
We have been deployed all round the state.
We have been on hot trails.
We've been so close to so many Fugitives.
We seriously need to stay on task.
What we need to do now is to move forward.
We're not even close to being good enough for a clean sweep.
Our reputations are on the line.
I want to make sure that we can apply as much pressure as we can.
If we want to win this, I want to take everyone out of the game
so there's no let-up.
Chief? Yes.
We've just received CCTV regarding Glenn and Taylah yesterday.
So this is CCTV footage that we're gonna throw up on the big screen.
The first CCTV hit has come from inside the apartment block.
Yes. Amazing.
That's a good get.
A second CCTV hit in the vicinity of the car park.
At 15:40, two passengers who match the description of Glenn and Taylah
enter the vehicle.
They exit the car park and turn right.
Yes!
So we know they were actually there.
We know the vehicle. We know the registration.
And now we need to find out where did that Ranger go?
Bravo. This is Ops. You're about to be re-tasked.
We have a positive ID.
Glenn and Taylah leaving that complex in a Ford Ranger
down in the car park.
The here-and-now is we want to know where the Ranger is,
and we'll get you boys tracking straight on behind that.
Roger. Stay focused right now, guys.
We've got to find that vehicle.
Let's go, go, go.
We are very determined to catch Glenn and Taylah.
It's game on and gloves off.
And today, we are back on the trail.
We feel we're getting close.
I'm not going to smile until we've got them in the bag.
The capture has to be within the next 24 hours.
We're all over this. We are all over this now.
Glenn is going down.
We are all over these people like black on a crow.
NARRATOR: With their pride on the line...
Go, go, go, go, go!
These guys are onto it, but...
..they still haven't got us yet.
..the Hunters up their game.
I've got their bags. (LAUGHS)
Oh, gold!
NARRATOR: And the emotional toll of being on the run...
It's my, uh, son's birthday.
I know the Hunters will be sitting there going,
"He's gonna contact his family."
(SIGHS) And they're not wrong.
..opens the door...
Do you know where your daddy is?
..for a capture.
They're not here now, are they?
Oh, my God. Stay there!
Go, boys! Go, go, go!
