Take Home Pay (2019) - full transcript
Two brothers; Alama and Popo, arrive for the first time in NZ as Seasonal Workers, making plenty of money to take back home to their family in Samoa. But things take a turn for the worst ...
Sole.
Sole...
Popo. Popo! Sh!
Oh.
Trying to make things better.
- He never listens.
- Ah, I almost got it.
Come plant it yourself.
Sorry, sorry.
Sorry, wrong note.
Sole, are you guys not going?
Hurry up!
Uh...
Uh, Popo...
- Mm.
- Ah.
Mm.
Yeah.
Why should we pick you to become
a seasonal worker?
I'm a heavy lifter.
I'm from a poor family.
Just wanna be a rich family.
You don't know this about me,
but, uh,
I'm a really good guy.
Go to church every Sunday,
Saturday.
You know, every day.
Cos I'm strong and handsome.
I come bearing gifts.
That's for you.
Just gonna leave that there.
How's your English?
Come on, mate, mate, mate.
How's my English?!
You can't hear my English?
Are you married or have
children?
Never in my life.
Single, just mingle.
No, I'm not married...
any more.
- Do you do drugs?
- Panadol, yeah. Drugs, no.
- No.
- No.
No?
Will you do drugs?
Ah, sorry, sir.
I don't have a truck.
I only have a bike,
drive around town.
When the sun get up, I'm up.
When the sun go down, I don't
go down; I stay up.
I'm an honest person,
and I love my family.
New Zealand can be dangerous,
and I'm wiling to do what it
takes to look after my people.
Hi-yah! Hi-yah!
Sig-tah! Hi-yah!
When the season is finished,
will you come back to Samoa?
Yeah. Build a new house,
make a business.
Do the work, eh, to take it back
to Samoa.
You guys gonna call me?
Y- Nuh-It's OK.
Thank you for sending me back to
New Zealand.
- Oi, don't forget your money.
- Oh, it's not mine.
Sure my one was green, but...
Hi-yah! Hut-zah!
Hut-zah! Nah, jokes.
'Dear, Popo, congratulations...'
Yeah!
'Dear Alama, congratulations.
'You've been accepted in our
sch-'
Sole... Lama, we're
going to New Zealand!
We're going to New Zealand!
We're going! Whoo!
Samoa Airways flight OL71 bound
for Auckland
is now officially closed.
Thank you.
Bob Titilo, private
investigator.
Don't worry. I will find him.
OK, have a good night.
- Not on my watch.
- What watch?
He can't even afford one.
Grey Goose.
Alfriston.
You're coming with me. Your
presence has been requested.
Is your name Alfriston?
My dad's name.
Don't worry. I got this, boys.
Ss.
Why'd you say my name?
See, this is what I hate, man.
People come looking for me,
saying my full name like that.
It's Alf, aiit?
Suck it in, big fulla.
Boys, remember that sleeper
I was talkin' about?
Nice and gentle around the neck,
right?
And just squeeze. Just squeeze.
There you go.
Ha, ha! I got you right where
I wanted you.
Right here.
Sole! Uh, boys!
Boys!
Let's gap it!
Room for improvement. Mm.
Oh, another five minutes won't
hurt.
Lama.
Lama. Lama!
Ooh!
The Sky Tower.
Whoa!
Wow!
Yeah, we just can't find enough
people locally.
I mean, there's more work than
there is interest.
So being able to fly in workers
as and when we need
means that we can keep
operating profitably
and without any long-term strain
on the infrastructure.
And how do you keep these
workers motivated?
Oh, they're self-motivated.
If a worker breaks the rules,
decides to depart without
permission,
that's gonna have consequences
for their families.
You see, most of the workers
in this group,
they're earning their money
for a year.
Is it all right if we go and
talk to them?
Yeah, sure.
- Hey, Popo!
- Sole.
I just wanted to grab a few
words.
Uh, you want me to look into
your eyes?
Just be natural.
This is my natural.
OK. Uh, Popo,
can you just tell me
what you get from coming to
New Zealand and picking fruit?
Uh, yeah. I... get the...
I get the money.
Hm.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
Yep. Thank you.
Probably... Can we
grab another one? Yeah.
- Hey, uh, Alama!
- Lama.
So, what sorts of things
do you buy?
Um, things for the kids,
for their school.
And maybe a fridge
and a car to help my dad with
the plantation.
And I wanna say thank you to
Sir Tony
for the opportunity and, uh,
wish I'll come back
and work here again.
- Fa'afetai lava.
- Thank you.
Yeah, really nice. Thank you.
We got a good one here.
If you were a kiwi fruit,
I would pick you.
Th-Thank you.
- Yeah. Fa.
- See you later.
Marry me for your visa!
Popo.
Popo?
Popo!
Popo?
Popo?!
If you're gonna make your plane,
you're gonna have to go now.
I'm not gonna go back home with
nothing.
But we'll do everything we can
to find him and your money.
But even if you find him,
you won't be able to get the
money off him.
You don't know New Zealand.
How you going to find him?
Hello.
I think it's a New Zealand
number.
Hello.
Oh, Alama!
Let's not waste time.
Let's get a professional.
And who's gonna pay for it?
Well, my son can help.
He's a private investigator.
And he can start now.
Bob!
Bob, why are you the furniture?
Uncle, I'm trying to practise my
private investigation skills.
You know, like my stealth
movement.
Never mind.
What skill?
- Thanks, Mum.
- Don't touch.
Look at you!
Go and put those clothes
I've got on your bed for you
to wear, son.
- Mum.
- Don't just stand there.
Go do as you're told.
I'm 40, Mum.
I know what I'm doing.
Do you really?
Son!
Don't stand there.
You're running late.
- Yeah.
- Come on.
Thanks, Mum.
- And, son...
- Yeah.
Please stay away from...
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. OK.
- All right.
- Love you, Mum.
- Love you too.
- You have a nice day.
- K.
Everyday Samoan language,
volume one.
When you meet someone, you can
ask them...
Tony Green.
Bob Titilo,
private investigator.
Yeah, Alama said
you'd be coming.
It's incredibly unfortunate,
what happened.
Oh, the audacity
is off the Richter!
Ah. Oh, look, here's Alama.
- Talofa lava.
- Oh, talofa lava.
Thank you so much for coming.
And I'm really sorry for this
burden.
Oh, look, it's no problem.
I'm sure I'll have everything
wrapped up by tomorrow.
Oh, cool.
Now, this Popo, he's related
to...
to you?
He's my brother. Not by blood -
I'm adopted -
but we were raised together.
So are you sure he took the
money?
Oh, yes, very sure.
How do you know?
He's the only one not going back
to the island.
And he's been acting strange.
I... I think he's been planning
this for a while.
Why did you have the money
in cash?
- I was going to buy something.
- Like what?
Just things for my family back
in the island.
OK.
Tony, is it OK if we check the
accommodation?
- Yeah, sure.
- Thanks, mate.
- Right this way, sir.
- Yep.
And we'll check in here first.
Need to look for some evidence.
Just what I thought.
I'm bagging it for evidence.
What about this?
What's 'evidence' in Samoan?
That's not evitesei.
- Evelegi.
- Evelantage.
Oh, here.
Please, Alama, try not to help.
Cos you're really not, OK?
- Which one is Popo's bed?
- It's this one.
- These must be Popo's.
- Yeah.
Evidence.
Tony, may I dust for
fingerprints?
Whatever you need, Bob.
- Do you need help?
- No. There's special training.
Just what I thought.
Can I ask you - why are we doing
this?
Because I have to get into
Popo's mind.
Who am I? How am I? Which am I?
What am I?
Before I know - where am I.
Is that him?!
- That's a tree.
- Exactly.
You see, we have to
know where he isn't...
in order to know where he is.
Wow. Look at the wingspan of
those toes.
You can definitely tell those
are Samoan footprints.
Alama, lavalava.
If I was Popo...
If I am Popo...
I would've gone...
that way.
Tony, thanks for your help,
mate.
- I'll take it from here.
- OK, mate.
Alama, we're gonna go on a
forest walk.
I hope you're ready.
My body's conditioned for it.
Do you really think Popo
came through this way?
If I was Popo, I'd be avoiding
all the main roads.
Do you recognise that man?
No.
But that's my lavalava.
OK. Leave the talking to me.
Hey, mate. How's it going?
- Talofa.
- Talofa lava.
- I am Alama.
- Bob Titilo.
- I'm Gareth.
- Oh, Gazza!
Gazza, we're looking for a
Samoan b-
Popo.
He gave me his lavalava, so I
gave him a discount on a ride.
Where to?
Just a loop around the forest
track in a 4-wheel drive.
- Are you two keen?
- Yes.
We need to go through what he
went through.
Selfie time!
So people pay for a bumpy ride?
Yeah. Something different, eh?
Any idea where he went
to after this?
Uh, yeah. He wanted to
go riding.
- Horsey.
- Why am I doing this?
Because we need to
get into his head.
Why did Popo ride a horse?
What can the horse tell us?
Where did Popo go?
Was it the TAB?
Did he try and eat you?
Are you sure you don't
wanna ride?
Uh, do you wanna broke-back
horse?
So what's the horse saying,
then?
The horse is saying...
mountain.
- Horse guide lady.
- My name's Sharon.
Shazza! Is there a mountain
nearby?
Yeah. There's one just out
that way.
Is there a smaller mountain?
Preferably one that's flat.
Look.
You see these dents on the
ground?
Nordic.
What's a Nordic?
Shh.
Nordic. One in this hand,
one in the other hand...
Yeah.
Alama, hurry up.
We're getting nowhere.
You sure Popo came
through this way?
Yes. The horse
wouldn't lie to me.
Whoa, that is so beautiful.
- It's a nice view up here.
- Yeah.
That was way chill a walk than
I thought.
Yeah.
Are you all right?
Looks like you need some
hydration.
Thank you.
So, where are you guys from?
I'm from Samoa.
Samoa? That is definitely on my
list of places I wanna visit.
Oh, yes, please. Where you from?
I'm English. But my dad's
Scottish and my mum's Irish, so.
Irish? I'm Irish too.
Really?
Yeah. 'Irish' you're my
girlfriend.
That's cute.
Yeah. And why would Popo be
coming up here?
Nordic poles.
Easy for walking. See you.
- I'm Bob.
- Kelly.
It's a pleasure to make your
acquaintance,
especially in a setting that's
almost as beautiful as you.
May I ask you a question?
Uh, OK.
You know, we've just finished a
five-hour trek.
- Two hours?
- Yep, two-hour trek.
What would you do next?
Uh... Well, we'll probably
grab a cold one.
Oh, an ice block?
- Where from?
- There's a place close by.
Oh, nice.
Hi, how are you? How's it going?
Can I speak with your manager,
please?
Free drinks for anyone
that can beat me.
So you're the manager.
I could be.
I got a few questions I need
to ask you.
- You police?
- No.
But I'm looking for a Samoan
man, mid-20s, not local.
But he looks like this.
It'll cost you.
How much?
500.
That's a little bit
over my budget.
No deal.
What...
if I...
could beat...
you?
You think...
that you...
can beat...
me?
- I've got something better.
- Oh?
OK.
Yeah, I got this, I got this.
- Right, boss.
- Yeah.
- I'm the boss.
- Let's do this!
- Let's do this.
- Shirts off!
Oh.
Oh my gosh.
It's when you took your
shirt off.
Uh...
Uh... We'll cross that bridge
when we get to the...
bridge.
- Popo's in there?
- Yes. We're getting closer.
How we gonna find him
in all of that?
How do you find a needle
in a haystack?
You eat the hay.
So simple.
What we gonna do now?
We need to get into his head.
Not this again.
If you had money and a
pretty girl, what would you do?
Marry the girl and use the money
for the wedding.
No. You'd go into town,
you'd have a great time,
and because you got money,
you'd get yourself a hotel room.
You wake up in the morning,
you're staring in the horizon;
You look at the biggest tree in
the concrete jungle
and you think to yourself,
'I want to climb that!'
Uh, chicken. I wasn't happy with
those goats we got last time.
- Really?
- Well, who wants diabetic goats
at a party? It's not ideal.
I'd like those goats
that eat gorse,
cos it's a real problem at the
moment.
- Did you get that?
- Yeah, I got it.
I just can't spell it.
And chicken.
Alama, I'll go left.
You go right.
Look at how high we are.
You go left.
We'll both go left.
Oh, OK.
Keep your eyes and ears peeled.
We need to surround him.
Alama, he's not up here.
Whoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
Yeah! Ah-hoo-hoo!
Whoo! Ah-hoo-hoo!
Yeah! Ohh! Man, it was amazing.
I bet it was. I mean, that high!
- There's my dawn warrior.
- Oh, and there's the other one!
That was awesome, man!
So this is what Popo's been
doing with your money.
I see everything from
there. I can see the tree.
- It's beautiful just like you.
- Oh, really?
Oh my gosh.
Alama, get him!
Aah! My hamstrings!
Right behind you, Alama!
Ss! Ss! Ssah!
- Bob!
- Just around the corner!
You're not allowed to
run up hills!
Sole!
Mate, I'm in a high-speed
pursuit
and I'm gonna need your
transportation. Can I use it?
- Yeah.
- Thanks, man.
Where's the rest of your bike,
man?
- Right here.
- Oh mate.
That's right. Strong core.
That's it. That's it.
Yeah, I remember.
It's all coming back.
Oh. Something wrong with the...
Once you put your bike
together, then I'll be back.
- Thanks mate.
- All right. Good luck.
Bob Titilo has done it
again! Come on. Hurry up!
Alama, he's getting away.
Come on, driver, let's go.
High speed.
Hey, Popo, this is my town.
Get him, get him! Go on, go on!
Let's go! Let's go! Come on,
this is a high-speed chase.
Yeah! Whoo!
- Gonna get you, Popo!
- This is what you call real!
Gonna get you, Popo!
This way, this way, this way!
Popo, stop. Just stop.
Stop.
- He's not stopping.
- Tackle him.
It's a moving vehicle.
It's too dangerous.
Driver, driver, please stop.
Please stop here, please.
Get him. Get him!
- Thank you.
- You're welcome. It's 20 bucks.
- Huh?
- 20 bucks.
2... 2... Uh...
Sole, you, um...
You found me.
Well done.
Oh!
Popo?
No. No, no. Just let him go.
- Let him go.
- What?
No, just let him go.
Let him go.
Yeah.
Thanks, Alama.
Next time just leave him to me.
Don't try to take him.
I know what to expect.
I've got a few surprises myself.
Look, we found him once.
We can find him again.
And how are we gonna do that?
Here.
- Why would he do that?
- Exactly.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- How are you?
- Yeah, good, thank you.
- How are you?
- Yeah, good. Take a seat.
Wow.
Welcome to wine tasting for
beginners.
It's your first step towards
expanding your knowledge
and appreciation for wine.
Boy, do we have a treat in store
for you tonight.
What wine do you have for a man
who have no money
in his wallet but a lot of love
in his heart.
Samoan man, mid to late 20s,
sampled any wine lately?
Um, yeah, actually, in the
previous session.
He was a very generous tipper.
- Where did he go to next?
- Well, it's Saturday night,
so I'm guessing the club
up the road.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
You're not gonna have a taste?
Uh...
Just a little bit.
- Stay away.
- Don't do it.
This isn't you, Bob Titilo.
You know, I would've been in
the Warriors.
Could've been in the
police force, a navy SEAL.
Could've been a commander
in the army.
Could've been the first Samoan
man on the moon.
- Really?
- Prime minister of New Zealand.
What are you talking about?
Could've been a nutritionalist.
Could've ran a
two-mile marathon.
I coulda had a three-pack abs.
Could've swam the Cook Strait
on the ferry.
Are you from, like, around here?
I'm from Samoa.
Samoa? Oh my goodness,
that's the most beautiful place.
Could've done so much.
Oh, yes!
We are looking for my brother.
- Well, I hope you find him.
- Yeah.
Hey, um, where did
your friend go?
Bob?
Bob!
You can't catch me!
Hey! Whoo-hoo-hoo!
Phwoar! It's been a long time.
Hi, tree.
Ohh!
I am Bob Chichilo.
Hey, Popo. Oh, that's not Popo.
Excuse me, have you seen Popo?
He's about this tall.
He's like that.
Very naughty. Naughty boy!
Oh, I can feel it.
Whoa!
Oh!
Whoo-hoo!
I am Aquaman!
No more fishing for you.
Hey!
What...? Are you talking to me?
Hey! You-You wanna piece of
this?
You want a piece of this?
Hey?
Come on.
I'm gonna give you a real jab
in your face.
I'm been training.
Training really hard.
Yeah.
You see that upper cut?
Coming your way.
I am Bob Titilo,
private investigator.
There's no way...
There's no way
you can take me over!
Oh my God!
Elbow, wrist-bow,
finger-bow, knee-bow.
You are gonna bow down to me.
You want me to smash this on
your head?
Huh? Ha, you can't fool me.
Aahh!
You think that hurt?
No, it was painful.
- All right, all right.
- Stop it!
Stop it, Alama!
It's not worth it.
You'll just get hurt.
You can't contain me.
Stop trying to be a container.
Wait! OK!
- OK?
- OK, yeah.
- Calm down.
- I'm good.
Look... Yaaah!
Stop it, Alama. Get away.
- That's enough.
- Get away!
Wha...?
What's wrong with you?
I'm sorry, Alama. Every Superman
has his kryptonite.
What is kryptonite?
It's a... You don't understand.
This is a waste of time. You're
supposed to be helping me.
I am! I am, I promise.
- I'll help you.
- Forget it.
Hey. Where you going?
- Let go.
- Let go or what?
I'm trying to make you see
the errors of your ways.
- Just step away.
- Or else what?
You think you can take me?
You think you can take
Bob Titilo?
- Yes, I do.
- Hey?
Here, take this.
Aahh!
Right where I want you.
Enough.
I got styles too.
I got snake.
I got a horse.
I got a elephant.
Two trunks. Eh?
And I got a banana style. You
know what I can do with that?
I can peel your face. Aahh!
You don't listen.
Uh?
What you gonna do with no money?
Huh? You don't even know where
you're going.
Every time you try something,
you stuff it up.
I saw an opportunity and
evaluated the situation
and acted accordingly.
Big words doesn't make you
less wrong.
That's it!
We're finished!
You can go back to the islands
the same way you came - broke!
Can you not bring your dramas
around here?
Yeah, cos you're kind of killing
our vibe.
Well, can you not bring
your faces in public?
Cos your kind of killing
my eyes.
That guy doesn't look too good.
We should check him.
- No, he's fine.
- Oh, sorry. Sorry.
Are you OK? Do you need help?
No. No, I'm fine.
I mean yes.
Are you hurt?
Oh!
Actually, I'm in a lot of pain.
Are you sure?
Cos if you're lying,
I'm gonna hurt you for real.
I think we should take him to
hospital.
No, he needs some physical and
psychological healing.
And I know what he needs.
It's always the ones closest
to you, eh?
What would you do if you don't
get your money back?
Well, I'll go back home with
nothing.
- Here, take this.
- Oh, no, no, no, no.
It's not much. Take it.
Hopefully it will help.
$2.
We got to go. We're gonna be late
for church. Here.
- Fa'afetai lava.
- Look after yourself.
Let's go.
- Fa.
- Fa soifua.
So you're just going to
leave it?
Yes. Mum, I can't work in
an environment
where I'm not appreciated.
Why is Alama so desperate to get
his money back?
- I don't know.
- How much was stolen?
Mum, I didn't ask.
Why would he want
to overstay his visa?
Mum, I don't even think it's
relevant.
Oh!
Son, you're a crap investigator.
You're 40, unemployed
and still living at home.
Yeah, but it's a nice home, Mum.
How many times have I told you
to stay away from-?
Wow, wow. Thanks, Mum, for the
vote of confidence?
Now, you listen and listen
carefully, son.
If you don't show respect for
Alama,
you are no better off than the
guy that took his money.
You finish what you started.
Do you hear me?
Yeah, but, Mum, he's probably
long gone by now.
- Based on what information?
- I'm just assuming.
Popo. He's my brother,
not by blood.
He's been acting strange.
There's my dawn warrior!
Very generous tipper.
He gave me his lavalava,
so I gave him a discount.
That's cute.
Ko'a lua.
Beautiful just like you.
There's my dawn warrior.
There's my dawn warrior!
There's my dawn warrior!
Dawn warrior!
Yes. Gotcha!
Don't you take him on by
yourself.
You go and look for
Alama and take him-
No, Mum. I'm gonna look for
someone else.
Go look for Alama.
The giraffe wakes up.
Open up your bones!
Open up the cartilage.
Open up the ligaments!
Build a bridge for the people.
Breathe in.
Sole!
Hey!
Tell the people it's safe
to cross.
You're...
I'm Bob... Faitatala.
Faiamio?
Fai... Bob Fa...
Bob...
- Bob Titilo!
- Titilo!
Oh, I see what you did.
Oh, you brought the power, huh?
OK, well, uso, you might have
the power,
but I've got the speed.
Oh, come on!
Hey, Popo, where's your speed
now, mate?
Oh!
Oh, you beauty.
A getaway vehicle.
Let's go.
Yeah! Whoo-hoo!
I knew we'll get the money back.
What? He's got the bag!
Go faster!
I beg your pardon?
- Plan B, then.
- What's plan A?
Feel the rhythm. Feel the vibe!
Plan B!
Yes!
How do you like that Bob Titilo
special, eh, Popo?
You...
Hey!
Ks! Ks! Ks! Aaah!
Ks! Ks! Ks! Ks!
Hey, that's my bike!
- Hey!
- Don't worry about it.
- I'll buy you a new bike.
- I need it for work tomorrow.
- What do you do for work?
- Riding!
Excuse me! That's my bike!
Hello! Hey!
That's my bike!
Sole!
I found Popo.
Did you get the money?
No. He got away again.
Popo and I always dream of
coming here.
I like it here too.
But if we are both here, then
there's nobody back home.
Yeah, but you can always send
money back home to help.
Money pay for things,
but it doesn't stop your parents
from being lonely.
It doesn't remind them to take
their medicine,
or even tell jokes just to make
them laugh.
Popo doesn't get that in his
head.
I'm sorry.
What was that?
I'm slowly getting a cough.
Alama, I'm really sorry.
Sorry for everything.
Ah, it's all right.
Thank you for helping me.
You're the only one who came out
and helped me.
Thanks for...
being a friend.
Like... best friends?
Nah, friends.
One more step and
then best friends, eh?
- 12 steps.
- 12 steps?
You know what? We're gonna
get that money.
But this time we're gonna do it
together.

Raah!

Bro, is this you?
No!
Isn't this your man?
What?
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

- Whoa! Got it.
- This one you're gonna block.

And the same time with both

I think I make you worse
than before.
Better if you just stick
to what you're good at.
- OK.
- What are you good at?
Let me show you my skill of how
to stay hidden.
Can you see me behind the chair?
Ha, ha! I was behind the tree.
Nice try.
I said to the Australian,
'You're a platypus!'
A platypus!
Now, that's what you
call a platypus.
They found him.
I've got an address.
Come on, Alama.
Popo!
Check over there.
Popo!
Popo!
Can you hear anything?
No.
There!
Watch out.
Popo!
You go first.
Lucky I came prepared.
Alama.
Alama?
Um...
Can't trust my eyes.
Gonna have to use my ears.
Alama?
Are you there?
Oh!
Alama, are you there?
Wow, what a skux dude.
Bob.
Oh my gosh.
- Why are your eyes closed?
- Because I was trying to...
- Come on, hurry up.
- OK, yeah.
Let's check upstairs.
No, I don't think he's gone
upstairs.
I'm sure he's staying on
flat surfaces now.
He's got to be here somewhere.
There.
Enough mucking around, Popo.
Lama.
Why the rush for?
Lama...
I'm not going back.
This is not our home, Popo.
If that's our home, Lama,
then why hasn't anybody else
gone back?
All we do is work for them.
It's the same thing over and
over again.
If you want it, then...
come and get it.
There.
Oof!
Look, it says,
'Lama, come get me!
'I'm waiting for you.'
Let's go, Lama.
Show me the stupid moves
our dad showed you.
OK.
Go home, Lama.
Sau.
I am not going back.
What the...?
- It's you!
- Yes, me.
- Alama, you've got this.
- No.
We got this.
Together.
- Best friends?
- Nearly best friends.
Now get him!
You all right? Alama.
You've got him.
Hey!
Get him!
Yeah.
- How's that feel now?
- That's enough, Popo!
That's enough, Popo.
I said enough, Popo.
That's two enoughs.
I knew you'd get him, Alama.
Both of us did it together.
That's what happens when you
mess with best friends, Popo.
Hey, best friend.
Guess what I got for you.
What's he laughing about, Alama?
I spent it on good times.
It's just like our family.
All that work for nothing!
Alama, I've still got some
oranges left.
Popo...
Yeah.
Sorry, Mum.
Stuck together.
Sorry, Alama, we couldn't get
your money back.
That's all right.
It's not your fault.
Here's something to take back
to Samoa.
Thank you, man.
Well, you better practise those
moves, huh?
