(Suspenseful music) (Birds chirping)
- You can't hide forever!
It's only a matter of time.
- What about school, dad?
- What about it?
- We'll miss some.
- Where's your other boot, Jess?
- I don't know.
- Help me find it, Adam.
- What did mum say?
- Jess, what are you doing?
- It won't go in!
- Of course it will.
Give it to me.
Oh, hey.
Look, I'm sorry.
- How come you're so mad at us?
- I'm not. I'm not.
Look, I just...
I just want us to have a really
great time together, yeah?
- Does it have a river?
- Oh, you bet.
Why don't you guys finish up here
and I'll go get the tent.
Okay?
- Gotcha.
Freeze.
(Kids shouting)
(Shouting)
Right, that's it!
I'm going to borrow one of yours!
(Kids shrieking)
- Start getting that lot in the car.
I'll be out in a minute, all right?
(Shouting)
(Laughing)
- I'm catching you!
You wait til I get you!
Now you're goners.
(Squeals)
- Jess!
I'll go get dad.
(Kids laughing)
- I tell you, when I fill this up
you're in big trouble!
It's going to be all over!
Right, that's it.
That is it!
- Dad!
Don't!
(Squealing)
- What are you doing here?
I said wait outside, didn't I?
- Jess has fallen over.
(Sighs)
- Damn.
(Atmospheric music)
- But why hang around here?
You know you can't fly
without the all-clear
from the doctor.
- So I'll help out somehow.
I mean, I can't stay at
home, I'm going insane.
There must be something
I can do around here.
- [Lexie] Hey jimbo!
- Well I guess you could
probably clean...
- Hey, hi.
- Hello!
- [Jimbo] How are you?
- Excuse me.
Excuse me, can you two
please wait outside?
We're still talking.
- Yeah. (Phone ringing)
- Shay, can you get that?
- [Jimbo] Anyway, I'm fine.
- So, what did the doctor say?
[Lauren] - Shay!
- I mean, what's
happening the radiation?
- [Jimbo] Well, he said I'm
not radiated or anything.
- [Lexie] Really?
- [Jimbo] Yeah.
- Good morning, big sky.
- Yeah, I wanna charter a
plane for a camping trip.
- I'm sorry, didn't quite catch that.
- Can you sue someone?
- [Lauren] Could you...
- [Jimbo] I don't know, I
haven't even got a lawyer.
- There's three of us.
Two kids, one adult.
- [Lauren] Do you have any luggage?
- A bit of camping gear, that's all.
- Yes, I can have a plane
on the ground there for you
in about 40 minutes.
- Yeah, all right.
Okay, yup.
Yup, we'll get one.
- Okay, thank you Mr. mccourt.
- Okay.
- [Chris] Look at me, I'm drowned.
- [Chloe] Dad, I'm hungry.
- Yeah, well mom will
probably have some sambas
when you get home.
- Not sandwiches hungry,
ice cream hungry.
- Yeah, me too.
- Sorry guys, I'm running late.
- Oh, dad.
- Please?
- I could probably go
an ice cream myself.
(Laughing)
- Come on, Chris.
(Phone ringing)
Hello?
- Good day.
- [Robbie] Where are you?
The kids are supposed to be home.
- Well I thought you could collect them
from big sky.
- They're due at mum's now.
- [Chris] Come on, it's not that far.
- Chris, I have an interview to get to.
- Well you should have told me.
I've got to go to work.
- Never mind.
I'll see you there.
- [Chris] Sorry, rob.
- Yum, yum, yum.
- Mum doesn't let us
have bubblegum flavor.
- How come?
- She says it makes us hyper
and wrecks her clothes.
- Where'd she get an idea like that?
- [James] Now where
are the damn matches?
- You already put them in.
- Right.
Okay.
Now, let's get going.
Oh, Jess!
- I'll clean it up.
- No, leave it.
- But it's all messy.
- I said leave it!
Come on, let's go.
Come on!
- [Shay] Well, if it isn't Chris
and the whole chain-full!
Hi kids!
- [Both] Hi!
- You're late, and it's like noted.
Hey, do you want to see
my new computer game?
It's like fully terrific.
(Computer beeping)
- [Chris] Morning, boss.
- You were supposed to be
here half an hour ago.
- Yeah, well there's nothing on.
- Well, there is now.
To gilmore.
Some guy wants to take
his kids camping.
Hi, you must be Chloe.
Hi.
I'm Lauren.
- Dad's going to show us the planes.
- That's a good idea.
As long as he gets moving
as soon as he's done it.
- Come on missy.
Jack?
Grab that for me, will you?
- Bye.
- Bye!
- [Both] Bye!
- This way.
Do you want to have a look?
- Yeah.
- This is one of my new ones.
In you go.
(Whistles)
You'll get this one for sure.
- Yeah, if I make the
interview in time.
Chris, I don't appreciate this.
We had a deal.
Come on!
- Well, if you'd let me know...
- That's not the point.
You were supposed to have the
kids home at a certain time,
I made my arrangements to fit in...
What happened to your clothes?
- [Chloe] Dad let us
have bubblegum flavor.
Race you round!
- Chris!
- She talked me into it.
- Late and filthy.
Thanks a lot.
- Robbie, I didn't think
five or ten minutes
was going to make that much difference.
- Yeah, that's the problem, isn't it?
You don't think about
anyone else but yourself.
- Hang on a minute.
- Chris, I have a life of my own too
and I would appreciate it
if you'd remember that.
- Uh, Chris.
Sorry, excuse me.
- You're all right.
- Oh, Robbie this is Lauren Allen.
Lauren, this is Robbie manning.
- Hi, nice to meet you.
- Hi, I've heard so much about you.
- Uh, there's been a change of plans
and Lexie's going to go
on that job with you now.
- Sure, yeah.
No worries.
- I thought you said she was awful?
- What was that?
She's turned into miss peachy sweet.
(Engine revving)
- Bastard!
- Maybe it's got no petrol?
- Shut up, Jess.
(Engine clicking)
- Come on, yes! (Engine turns over)
- Yes!
(Phone ringing)
I'll get it!
- No, no!
Leave it!
- But it might be mum.
- I'll go, I got to lock up anyway.
Come on.
(Phone ringing)
- [Woman] James?
James is that you?
Please don't hang up.
We have to talk.
James, are you there?
James, please talk to me!
- Oh, what's wrong with you?
- Nothing, Shay.
- [Lauren] Chris?
- Don't you start.
- All right.
- How come you didn't tell us?
- I wanted to surprise you!
(Paper rustling)
(Phone number dialing)
- Warning.
Ballistic customer alert.
James mccourt, totally spewing.
Won't listen to reason,
has to speak to you.
- Where the hell's my plane?
- [Lauren] I'm sorry Mr. mccourt,
there's been a short delay.
- Yeah, it looks I've been told.
- We usually don't have
problems like this,
it's...
- How long will it be?
- Well look, as I said,
I'm really very sorry.
There's been some traffic
clearance problems,
and it shouldn't be
more than half an hour.
- Yeah, well it better not be.
- Charlie, tango, delta
request airways clearance.
- Charlie tango delta
you're clear due track
direct to gilmore
at 5500.
Take off when ready.
- Charlie tango delta.
Direct to gilmore, 5500.
(Dramatic music)
- [Jessie] Beat ya.
(Kids chatting)
- What time's your
doctor's appointment?
- About half an hour ago.
- Yeah, that's what Shay said.
And?
- Do you know how darts were invented?
They were spears in
plantagenet, England.
They just got smaller and smaller.
Didn't know that, did you?
- You're putting it off.
I'll drive you.
- [Jimbo] What are you, my mother?
- Come on.
Let's go.
- Wow.
Dad, look.
- [Adam] Unreal.
- Well.
This is it.
- Good luck.
- Have I ever told you
how darts were invented?
(Chuckles)
- Go on. I'll wait for you.
- Good day, folks.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- I'm Chris manning.
This is Lexie. - Hi there.
- Hi.
- You took your time.
- It's not often my
patients mess with fallen
nuclear powered satellites.
Ah, yes.
- I've got to tell you doc.
I'm not feeling too flush about this.
- That's understandable.
Right.
Your whole body count shows
zero radio nuclear ingestion,
and your full blood
count shows no evidence
that you're immuno suppressed.
There's no evidence of
exposure to radiation.
- All right, I'm cool.
- Yes.
You are very lucky in that sense.
There is one other thing I need
to discuss with you, though.
- Go for it.
- You remember we did a sperm count?
- [Jimbo] How could I forget?
- It appears that you
have a very low count,
and there's evidence of immotile sperm.
- Immotile?
- That can be an
indication of infertility.
- What, I'm shooting blanks?
- In a manner of speaking, yes.
- But I'm not irradiated.
- It's likely to be a
pre-existing condition.
If you'd copped enough
radiation to cause infertility
your bone marrow would
be haywire by now.
Had you planned to start a family?
Have kids?
- Well, up to now I'd
been trying to avoid it.
- Then you'd had no reason to
suspect anything before now.
- So...
I can never have kids?
- We'll do some more tests,
but these figures don't
look good at all.
- How long's all this take?
- It's been a while since
anyone's landed here.
The strips will be rough.
- Oh, yes.
Not used much anymore.
So what's the problem?
- So I'm just checking for sand damage.
- Can we do that upside
down swirling thing?
- Would you like to?
- Yeah.
(Chuckles)
- Let's get going, eh?
- Come on, kids.
Let's start loading up.
- Well?
- I got the results.
- And?
- Glad I was wearing
my lucky red undies.
- What, you're fine?
- Yeah.
No radio nuclear thingys.
Blood cells were all bloody.
I'm a walking health farm.
- So there was nothing?
- No.
Should we go?
- What's this for?
- That's in case anyone
feels like decorating.
- Spewing.
- Yuck!
- Oh, leave that one.
It's a bit heavy.
You got any kids?
- [Lexie] Me?
Still a kid myself.
- That's what I thought
til Adam was born.
Those kids were the best thing
that ever happened to me.
- [Chris] You expecting anyone?
- No, not with us.
Hey, you kids get down
there back in your seats.
Come on.
- [Jess] I want to sit in the front!
- [James] Well, just sit back here!
- [Lexie] Sorry, Jess.
That's my seat.
- Hey, it's grandpa!
- Right, stay in there.
Right?
Stay.
- James.
- How did you find us?
- One of the neighbors saw
you heading out this way.
- [James] You shouldn't have come.
- Come on James, let's
stop mucking around, eh?
You've got to mind a real worry.
- Well, that's not my problem.
- I've got a court order here.
Come on, let me take the children home.
It's where they belong.
- My kids belong with me.
- We're going camping, grandpa!
- [James] Shut up, Jess!
- James, this isn't the way.
How's my two favorite people, huh?
- Hi, grandpa!
- Hi.
- Going to have to go camping
some other time, Jess.
- You get away from my kids.
I said stop right there!
(Rifle cocking)
Not another step!
- Just take it easy, mate.
Calm down.
- Just stay out of this!
- This isn't going to help anyone.
- Just shut up!
Get back in your car.
- James, don't be ridiculous.
- Get back in your car,
and get out of here!
- Not without the children.
(Gunshot fires)
(Jess screams)
- [Lexie] Oh my god!
- [Adam] Grandpa!
- Stay in the plane.
Stay where you are!
- But what about grandpa?
- [Chris] He'll be okay,
just stay where you are.
- Please...
Help me.
- Stupid bastard!
Why did you make me do it?
Why didn't you just leave us alone?
- Help me, please.
- [Lexie] It's okay, we'll get help.
- We got to get him to a hospital.
How about you give me the gun?
- I didn't want to shoot you.
Why didn't you leave us alone?
- Listen to me.
Look at him.
We've got to get him to a hospital.
- No! No!
Get in the plane!
- We can't leave him here!
- [James] Get in the plane!
- All right.
All right.
Just calm down.
We'll take you where you want to go.
- Well, let's do that, then!
- But I'm not leaving him here.
- He shouldn't have come.
- Just let me put him on the plane.
- [James] No!
- You want him to die?
(Gasping)
Do you want him to die?
- All right.
Get him in.
- Chris, I don't know what to do.
We've got to get help.
- I know.
You kids got your seat belts on?
You better put yours on as well.
- Shut up and get us in the air!
- It's okay.
It's okay, just hang in there.
We're going to get help.
Chris!
- What's happening?
- I can't stop the bleeding.
It's everywhere!
I don't know what...
I'm just not sure what to do.
- Just...
Apply some pressure to his wound
and keep his legs up.
- Sorry.
- Okay, we're going here.
- That's in the middle of nowhere.
We've got to get him to a hospital.
- Didn't you hear me?
- Just let me call the base.
- No!
No radios, you just
fly the bloody plane!
- All right. All right.
Everybody hang on.
- Now you going to tell
us what your problem is
or what?
- [Jimbo] No, it's nothing.
- Right.
- You've got kids, haven't you Ronnie?
- [Ronnie] Yeah, five of them.
- How old were you when
you had the first one?
- Just out of school.
Why?
- No reason.
- You haven't got someone
pregnant, have you?
- Wish I did.
- So what's the problem?
- Oh, it's nothing.
- Yes it is.
What's up?
- Nothing.
It doesn't matter.
(Atmospheric music)
- Don't die, granddad.
- No way.
We've still got a cubby
house to build, don't we?
- Jess.
Back in your seat.
- [Tom] Cold...
- He's going into shock, Lexie.
You've got to keep him warm.
- Hold this for me, honey.
Come on.
That's it.
Have you got blankets packed?
- He can use my sleeping bag.
- Good girl.
- It's not too late, you know.
We can still get him to a hospital.
I don't know what the story is,
but breaking custody's
one thing, murder...
- Shut up.
Just shut up, I haven't
murdered anyone.
- Maybe not yet.
- [Lauren] Charlie tango delta
this is big sky base.
- I have to answer it.
- No, leave it.
- Charlie tango delta, this is Lauren
at big sky base.
Where are you guys?
Chris, Lexie?
- It's aviation regulations.
If I don't answer, they'll
send a search party.
- Let me think.
- Look,
I don't even have to touch the dials,
I could just grab the mic.
- [Lauren] You two bound for
a picnic, or something?
I need you to pick up
something at ib station
on your way back.
- [James] Okay.
- Big sky, this is Charlie tango delta.
- I was starting to wonder about you.
Did you hear my message
about ib station?
- Yeah, no worries.
- [Lauren] How's it all going there?
Is everything okay?
- Everything's fine.
- And you're on schedule
for the warrenbungles?
- Yeah, we're making great time.
Matter of fact we've got a tailwind.
Tell Scotty I'm on course
to smash his record
to Griffith on may the first.
- Yeah, what's so famous about it?
- You better ask him.
He tells the story better than I do.
- Okay.
So, shall I tell Ted
Brooks you'll be there
within an hour?
Chris?
- Yeah, no worries.
Charlie tango delta.
(Panting)
- He can't breathe.
It's like he's drowning.
- Look, we're two minutes
from the nearest town.
Let me put down and
get him to hospital,
then I'll take you
wherever you want to go.
- [James] No.
- But you've got to, he'll die!
- Didn't you hear me?
- I don't want to go camping anymore.
- Oh, Jess.
- I want to go home.
I want mom.
- Come on, Jess.
Please, don't be upset.
We're going to be
really happy soon, hey?
Just you me and Adam.
- Hey!
- Something's wrong,
I've got engine trouble.
- Well can't you fix it?
What's the noise? - I don't know.
I don't know what it is.
I'm going to have to
put down somewhere.
- No, you can't!
- I've got to!
(Jess screams)
- Let me out! I want to get out!
Stop it! Please!
- Chris!
- Stupid bastard.
I should blow you away.
We only need one pilot on this flight.
One more stunt like
that, and you're gone.
- Well, with Darryl, I
mean he was our first.
I didn't know what to do.
I felt like a spare one
at the bloody wedding.
I didn't have a clue.
The one thing I do remember, though,
was June was screaming her
bloody head off, mate.
And there I was, being
picked up by the nurse
off the floor.
- What, you fainted?
- Well...
Yeah, I hadn't eaten for 12 hours.
But by the time the
last one came, mate,
it was an old hat.
June and I, we decided that we wanted
to have a home birth,
so there was just the two
of us and the midwife.
- What, you're kidding.
You delivered your own kid?
- Yeah.
Right there at home, mate.
(Laughing)
I caught the little thing in my arms,
cut the cord off.
Oh, gee.
It was absolutely fantastic.
Ah, mate.
If there's ever one thing in life
you don't want to miss
out, it's seeing your kids
come into the world.
Make sure you don't
when it's your turn.
- Maybe it never will be.
- That's the way you
feel about kids now,
but you wait.
Couple years time,
you'll change your mind.
Believe me.
- Okay.
- [Lauren] Ah, Scotty.
- Yo.
- Chris said I should ask you
about your famous flight
to Griffith last year.
- Aye.
- Yeah, what about it?
He said you broke some sort
of record, or something.
- Did it later.
I had a bomb onboard.
- What?
- Yeah, all the nutters
coming out at Christmas.
- [Lauren] Scary.
- You could say.
- Near Christmas?
- Yeah, jimbo was in a Santa suit.
- No, Chris said may.
He said the famous flight
to Griffith last may.
- May?
No, he's lost it.
I wasn't even working here last may.
- Hmm.
What's he on about?
He did sound a little bit weird.
- [Scotty] When did you talk to him?
- Just now on the radio.
- And he definitely said may?
He's pissed.
- He said just tell Scotty
about the famous...
Something about the
famous flight to Griffith
last may 1st.
- Mayday.
- Well, what do I say?
He might not be able to talk?
- Tell him...
Tell him Scotty wants to know
if he's trying to upstage him,
or something like that.
(Dramatic music)
- Come on, Tom.
Don't give up on me.
- Under the car...
No, no.
It's in the back.
We...
- Tom.
Can you hear me?
- He's going to die.
- Shut up.
- Sarah!
- He wants my Nana.
- Can't you see what you're doing?
You've got to let us land!
- Nobody's taking my kids!
- This is not about kids now.
- Hey, I know what you're doing!
We stop now, I lose my kids forever!
- I want to go home.
- Shh.
I know you do, sweetheart.
- [Lauren] Charlie tango
delta this is big sky.
What's your position
there please, Chris?
- Leave it.
- Charlie tango delta, this is big sky.
Chris, this is Lauren.
You keep trying.
I'm going to call the
air traffic control.
- Uh, Charlie tango delta,
this is Scotty at the base.
Are you there Chris?
- Uh, yeah hi this is
Lauren Allen from big sky.
We think one of our planes
might be in trouble.
Can you check him for us, please?
- Tom...
Tom?
Chris, I think he's dying.
- Well you're going to
have to shake him, Lexie.
Don't let him pass out.
- Tom? Tom, can you hear me?
Don't sleep, please.
You have to talk to me.
- [Scotty] Charlie tango
delta, this is big sky base.
Chris are you there?
- If you're not going
to let me answer it,
at least let me turn it off.
- No, don't touch it.
- We've got him, Lauren.
Tracking 270 at 50 miles.
- West?
Where the hell is he going?
- I don't know, he's heading
out of controlled air space.
We'll lose him from the
screen in about four minutes.
- Just let me turn it
off so we can think.
- All right.
- Please, Tom
come on.
Hang in there.
- There's not much out there.
Any idea where he might be headed?
- It's him.
It's a 7700.
- Lauren, looks like we've got
a hijacking on our hands.
- Tom...
Tom?
Tom.
Please.
Oh god, please!
(Sobbing)
Chris, I can't wake him!
- Wake up, grandpa!
- [Chris] Is he breathing?
- I don't think so.
- Well, check his pulse!
(Sobbing)
- There's nothing, I can't!
There's no pulse!
- You hear that, pal?
(Lexie sobbing)
(Crying)
- That's right, sir.
Number plate nnc 673.
- [Policeman] Do you know how
many children he had with him?
- He said two.
- There's a call for you.
Lauren, is there anything I can do?
- No, I'm all right.
Thanks.
Is there any word?
- Nothing.
- They found mccourt's car
and another one.
There's also blood at the scene.
- Oh my god.
- That's it, I'm out of here.
- No, don't be silly Scotty.
How can you expect to find him?
- Well, come on.
It's better than sitting
around here anyway.
We know his last positive fix,
we know he's tracking 270.
There's not that many
places to land out there.
- Maybe he put down in
a paddock somewhere.
- Maybe.
So if I track his line, I'll see him.
(Sobbing)
- Jessie, please stop crying, honey.
(Sobbing)
Hey!
- Stop it!
Stop, dad! Don't! Don't!
Please don't!
(Gun firing)
(Jess screams)
(Dramatic music)
- You idiot!
You could have killed us!
(Alarm sounding)
Something's wrong.
We'll try to get it back.
We're going to lose an engine.
Hang on.
- Have you got anything
sharp in your pockets?
Okay, now put your hands
like this and lean forward.
It's okay.
- Okay, here we go.
(Kids screaming)
Doesn't look good.
The bullet's ripped a
hole in my oil line.
I don't know if I can
get it back in the air.
- Then she can.
- There should be some
instant airframe onboard.
- That might help.
- There must be something you can do.
- You have any bright suggestions?
- Hey.
You know the kids will
get really dehydrated
if you make us sit out
here much longer.
- Tell your mate here to hurry up.
- [Lexie] Why don't you just
let me take them back onboard?
- Make sure you stay up the back, here.
Got it?
- I got a couple of kids myself.
Bit younger than yours.
Jack and Chloe.
They can be a handful.
- [James] Shut up.
- I reckon I know what
you're going through.
My wife and I split
up, she got the kids.
I just...
I miss having them around.
- You wouldn't know.
- So why'd your missus get the kids?
Of course, society couldn't cope.
Was that it?
(Scoffs)
- No way.
I'm a good father, all right?
And I love my kids.
- Yeah, I can tell that.
So what happened?
- It wasn't my fault.
Place dried up in the drought.
No water, no wheat.
No wheat, no money.
The banks were pushing me.
Me and her...
Just started yelling at each other.
- And she took off?
- Back to the city.
And I tried to make it work.
I tried so bloody hard.
Oh, but you know what it's like.
When a woman's unhappy, she gets angry
and it gets real tough.
One day I come home,
and they're gone.
My whole family.
Just like that.
- [Chris] What about visiting rights?
I can see my kids every
couple of weeks.
- Yeah.
Your kids don't live 400 bloody
kilometers away, do they?
You know what I get?
A phone call a week, if I'm lucky.
School reports in the mail.
Two weeks of bloody school holidays.
You ever tried kissing somebody
goodnight over the phone?
- So you're just going to
take them and go bush?
- Yup.
- Well, how long do you think
you're going to last out there?
- Hey, I can look after them.
- What with?
No food, no shelter.
What if one of them gets sick?
- We'll be all right.
I love my kids.
- Yeah?
Well I'd be asking myself
who I'm doing this for.
I wouldn't put them through this.
- Well, I don't give a
damn what you'd do.
I love my kids, all right?
Now fix this bloody plane.
- Big sky, this Charlie tango delta
it's Lexie, are you there, Lauren?
- Hey, I think I've got something!
- Big sky base, it's Lexie.
Please, someone.
- Lexie, it's jimbo.
What's going on? Where are you?
- Oh, jimbo thank god.
Listen, plane 270,
about 55 minutes.
- [Jimbo] Lexie?
- Hey.
Put it down.
- [Jimbo] Lexie, you still there?
- I think we're somewhere out near...
- I said put it down, now!
- We had a false landing.
(Gunshot fires)
(Kids scream)
(Kids crying)
It's okay.
I'm all right.
- You bloody idiot.
- Look, I could have shot her
and not the radio.
Now.
Get back there where you were.
- Go on, I'm all right.
Hey guys, it's okay.
I'm all right.
Really.
- They're about 45
minutes out of gilmore
when they went down.
- Now heading west, with the
wind coming from the right,
that puts them about here.
I'll call Scotty.
- Mm-hmm.
- [Jimbo] Scotty.
Last known position is approximately
20 miles southeast of wolgan.
- [Scotty] I got you, mate.
Julian Oscar Charlie.
- Honey, I need you to try and
bandage this for me, okay?
I want you to wrap it round,
make it as tight as you can.
- Won't it hurt?
- I need to try and stop the bleeding.
Can you do this?
- [Adam] Yes.
- How much longer?
- Not much.
(Screams)
- Adam.
Get away from her!
(Dramatic music) (Shouts)
(Grunting)
(Grunts)
Bastard!
Ill kill you!
- No! (Gunshot fires)
No more, dad.
Please.
(Sobbing)
- Let's wait inside for mum.
- I'll take them.
Come on, guys.
(Engine starting)
- You jumped on a man with a gun.
What were you thinking?
- [Jimbo] There you go.
- Last time I want to try being a hero.
- Yeah, me too.
All I did was nearly get us killed.
- We're going to the
safari bar for a drink.
Do you want to come?
- No, not this time.
I got somewhere to go.
I'll see you later.
- See ya.
- Dad!
- Dad!
- [Chris] Good day.
- What are you doing here?
- Oh, a surprise visit!
Are you going somewhere?
- Yeah, and we're running late.
Come on, get in the car.
- [Jack] Can't dad come with us?
- Not today, sweetheart.
Come on.
- [Chris] So how'd your interview go?
- Oh, good I think.
I find out next week.
- Well, I'll just give you
these and let you go.
- What's this, a bribe?
- No, it's an apology.
I guess I was taking things...
You for granted.
I'm sorry.
- Thank you.
- I just wanted you to know that.
- We have to go.
- Sure.
See you soon.
(Engine starts)
(Atmospheric music)
- You can't hide forever!
It's only a matter of time.
- What about school, dad?
- What about it?
- We'll miss some.
- Where's your other boot, Jess?
- I don't know.
- Help me find it, Adam.
- What did mum say?
- Jess, what are you doing?
- It won't go in!
- Of course it will.
Give it to me.
Oh, hey.
Look, I'm sorry.
- How come you're so mad at us?
- I'm not. I'm not.
Look, I just...
I just want us to have a really
great time together, yeah?
- Does it have a river?
- Oh, you bet.
Why don't you guys finish up here
and I'll go get the tent.
Okay?
- Gotcha.
Freeze.
(Kids shouting)
(Shouting)
Right, that's it!
I'm going to borrow one of yours!
(Kids shrieking)
- Start getting that lot in the car.
I'll be out in a minute, all right?
(Shouting)
(Laughing)
- I'm catching you!
You wait til I get you!
Now you're goners.
(Squeals)
- Jess!
I'll go get dad.
(Kids laughing)
- I tell you, when I fill this up
you're in big trouble!
It's going to be all over!
Right, that's it.
That is it!
- Dad!
Don't!
(Squealing)
- What are you doing here?
I said wait outside, didn't I?
- Jess has fallen over.
(Sighs)
- Damn.
(Atmospheric music)
- But why hang around here?
You know you can't fly
without the all-clear
from the doctor.
- So I'll help out somehow.
I mean, I can't stay at
home, I'm going insane.
There must be something
I can do around here.
- [Lexie] Hey jimbo!
- Well I guess you could
probably clean...
- Hey, hi.
- Hello!
- [Jimbo] How are you?
- Excuse me.
Excuse me, can you two
please wait outside?
We're still talking.
- Yeah. (Phone ringing)
- Shay, can you get that?
- [Jimbo] Anyway, I'm fine.
- So, what did the doctor say?
[Lauren] - Shay!
- I mean, what's
happening the radiation?
- [Jimbo] Well, he said I'm
not radiated or anything.
- [Lexie] Really?
- [Jimbo] Yeah.
- Good morning, big sky.
- Yeah, I wanna charter a
plane for a camping trip.
- I'm sorry, didn't quite catch that.
- Can you sue someone?
- [Lauren] Could you...
- [Jimbo] I don't know, I
haven't even got a lawyer.
- There's three of us.
Two kids, one adult.
- [Lauren] Do you have any luggage?
- A bit of camping gear, that's all.
- Yes, I can have a plane
on the ground there for you
in about 40 minutes.
- Yeah, all right.
Okay, yup.
Yup, we'll get one.
- Okay, thank you Mr. mccourt.
- Okay.
- [Chris] Look at me, I'm drowned.
- [Chloe] Dad, I'm hungry.
- Yeah, well mom will
probably have some sambas
when you get home.
- Not sandwiches hungry,
ice cream hungry.
- Yeah, me too.
- Sorry guys, I'm running late.
- Oh, dad.
- Please?
- I could probably go
an ice cream myself.
(Laughing)
- Come on, Chris.
(Phone ringing)
Hello?
- Good day.
- [Robbie] Where are you?
The kids are supposed to be home.
- Well I thought you could collect them
from big sky.
- They're due at mum's now.
- [Chris] Come on, it's not that far.
- Chris, I have an interview to get to.
- Well you should have told me.
I've got to go to work.
- Never mind.
I'll see you there.
- [Chris] Sorry, rob.
- Yum, yum, yum.
- Mum doesn't let us
have bubblegum flavor.
- How come?
- She says it makes us hyper
and wrecks her clothes.
- Where'd she get an idea like that?
- [James] Now where
are the damn matches?
- You already put them in.
- Right.
Okay.
Now, let's get going.
Oh, Jess!
- I'll clean it up.
- No, leave it.
- But it's all messy.
- I said leave it!
Come on, let's go.
Come on!
- [Shay] Well, if it isn't Chris
and the whole chain-full!
Hi kids!
- [Both] Hi!
- You're late, and it's like noted.
Hey, do you want to see
my new computer game?
It's like fully terrific.
(Computer beeping)
- [Chris] Morning, boss.
- You were supposed to be
here half an hour ago.
- Yeah, well there's nothing on.
- Well, there is now.
To gilmore.
Some guy wants to take
his kids camping.
Hi, you must be Chloe.
Hi.
I'm Lauren.
- Dad's going to show us the planes.
- That's a good idea.
As long as he gets moving
as soon as he's done it.
- Come on missy.
Jack?
Grab that for me, will you?
- Bye.
- Bye!
- [Both] Bye!
- This way.
Do you want to have a look?
- Yeah.
- This is one of my new ones.
In you go.
(Whistles)
You'll get this one for sure.
- Yeah, if I make the
interview in time.
Chris, I don't appreciate this.
We had a deal.
Come on!
- Well, if you'd let me know...
- That's not the point.
You were supposed to have the
kids home at a certain time,
I made my arrangements to fit in...
What happened to your clothes?
- [Chloe] Dad let us
have bubblegum flavor.
Race you round!
- Chris!
- She talked me into it.
- Late and filthy.
Thanks a lot.
- Robbie, I didn't think
five or ten minutes
was going to make that much difference.
- Yeah, that's the problem, isn't it?
You don't think about
anyone else but yourself.
- Hang on a minute.
- Chris, I have a life of my own too
and I would appreciate it
if you'd remember that.
- Uh, Chris.
Sorry, excuse me.
- You're all right.
- Oh, Robbie this is Lauren Allen.
Lauren, this is Robbie manning.
- Hi, nice to meet you.
- Hi, I've heard so much about you.
- Uh, there's been a change of plans
and Lexie's going to go
on that job with you now.
- Sure, yeah.
No worries.
- I thought you said she was awful?
- What was that?
She's turned into miss peachy sweet.
(Engine revving)
- Bastard!
- Maybe it's got no petrol?
- Shut up, Jess.
(Engine clicking)
- Come on, yes! (Engine turns over)
- Yes!
(Phone ringing)
I'll get it!
- No, no!
Leave it!
- But it might be mum.
- I'll go, I got to lock up anyway.
Come on.
(Phone ringing)
- [Woman] James?
James is that you?
Please don't hang up.
We have to talk.
James, are you there?
James, please talk to me!
- Oh, what's wrong with you?
- Nothing, Shay.
- [Lauren] Chris?
- Don't you start.
- All right.
- How come you didn't tell us?
- I wanted to surprise you!
(Paper rustling)
(Phone number dialing)
- Warning.
Ballistic customer alert.
James mccourt, totally spewing.
Won't listen to reason,
has to speak to you.
- Where the hell's my plane?
- [Lauren] I'm sorry Mr. mccourt,
there's been a short delay.
- Yeah, it looks I've been told.
- We usually don't have
problems like this,
it's...
- How long will it be?
- Well look, as I said,
I'm really very sorry.
There's been some traffic
clearance problems,
and it shouldn't be
more than half an hour.
- Yeah, well it better not be.
- Charlie, tango, delta
request airways clearance.
- Charlie tango delta
you're clear due track
direct to gilmore
at 5500.
Take off when ready.
- Charlie tango delta.
Direct to gilmore, 5500.
(Dramatic music)
- [Jessie] Beat ya.
(Kids chatting)
- What time's your
doctor's appointment?
- About half an hour ago.
- Yeah, that's what Shay said.
And?
- Do you know how darts were invented?
They were spears in
plantagenet, England.
They just got smaller and smaller.
Didn't know that, did you?
- You're putting it off.
I'll drive you.
- [Jimbo] What are you, my mother?
- Come on.
Let's go.
- Wow.
Dad, look.
- [Adam] Unreal.
- Well.
This is it.
- Good luck.
- Have I ever told you
how darts were invented?
(Chuckles)
- Go on. I'll wait for you.
- Good day, folks.
- Hi.
- Hi.
- I'm Chris manning.
This is Lexie. - Hi there.
- Hi.
- You took your time.
- It's not often my
patients mess with fallen
nuclear powered satellites.
Ah, yes.
- I've got to tell you doc.
I'm not feeling too flush about this.
- That's understandable.
Right.
Your whole body count shows
zero radio nuclear ingestion,
and your full blood
count shows no evidence
that you're immuno suppressed.
There's no evidence of
exposure to radiation.
- All right, I'm cool.
- Yes.
You are very lucky in that sense.
There is one other thing I need
to discuss with you, though.
- Go for it.
- You remember we did a sperm count?
- [Jimbo] How could I forget?
- It appears that you
have a very low count,
and there's evidence of immotile sperm.
- Immotile?
- That can be an
indication of infertility.
- What, I'm shooting blanks?
- In a manner of speaking, yes.
- But I'm not irradiated.
- It's likely to be a
pre-existing condition.
If you'd copped enough
radiation to cause infertility
your bone marrow would
be haywire by now.
Had you planned to start a family?
Have kids?
- Well, up to now I'd
been trying to avoid it.
- Then you'd had no reason to
suspect anything before now.
- So...
I can never have kids?
- We'll do some more tests,
but these figures don't
look good at all.
- How long's all this take?
- It's been a while since
anyone's landed here.
The strips will be rough.
- Oh, yes.
Not used much anymore.
So what's the problem?
- So I'm just checking for sand damage.
- Can we do that upside
down swirling thing?
- Would you like to?
- Yeah.
(Chuckles)
- Let's get going, eh?
- Come on, kids.
Let's start loading up.
- Well?
- I got the results.
- And?
- Glad I was wearing
my lucky red undies.
- What, you're fine?
- Yeah.
No radio nuclear thingys.
Blood cells were all bloody.
I'm a walking health farm.
- So there was nothing?
- No.
Should we go?
- What's this for?
- That's in case anyone
feels like decorating.
- Spewing.
- Yuck!
- Oh, leave that one.
It's a bit heavy.
You got any kids?
- [Lexie] Me?
Still a kid myself.
- That's what I thought
til Adam was born.
Those kids were the best thing
that ever happened to me.
- [Chris] You expecting anyone?
- No, not with us.
Hey, you kids get down
there back in your seats.
Come on.
- [Jess] I want to sit in the front!
- [James] Well, just sit back here!
- [Lexie] Sorry, Jess.
That's my seat.
- Hey, it's grandpa!
- Right, stay in there.
Right?
Stay.
- James.
- How did you find us?
- One of the neighbors saw
you heading out this way.
- [James] You shouldn't have come.
- Come on James, let's
stop mucking around, eh?
You've got to mind a real worry.
- Well, that's not my problem.
- I've got a court order here.
Come on, let me take the children home.
It's where they belong.
- My kids belong with me.
- We're going camping, grandpa!
- [James] Shut up, Jess!
- James, this isn't the way.
How's my two favorite people, huh?
- Hi, grandpa!
- Hi.
- Going to have to go camping
some other time, Jess.
- You get away from my kids.
I said stop right there!
(Rifle cocking)
Not another step!
- Just take it easy, mate.
Calm down.
- Just stay out of this!
- This isn't going to help anyone.
- Just shut up!
Get back in your car.
- James, don't be ridiculous.
- Get back in your car,
and get out of here!
- Not without the children.
(Gunshot fires)
(Jess screams)
- [Lexie] Oh my god!
- [Adam] Grandpa!
- Stay in the plane.
Stay where you are!
- But what about grandpa?
- [Chris] He'll be okay,
just stay where you are.
- Please...
Help me.
- Stupid bastard!
Why did you make me do it?
Why didn't you just leave us alone?
- Help me, please.
- [Lexie] It's okay, we'll get help.
- We got to get him to a hospital.
How about you give me the gun?
- I didn't want to shoot you.
Why didn't you leave us alone?
- Listen to me.
Look at him.
We've got to get him to a hospital.
- No! No!
Get in the plane!
- We can't leave him here!
- [James] Get in the plane!
- All right.
All right.
Just calm down.
We'll take you where you want to go.
- Well, let's do that, then!
- But I'm not leaving him here.
- He shouldn't have come.
- Just let me put him on the plane.
- [James] No!
- You want him to die?
(Gasping)
Do you want him to die?
- All right.
Get him in.
- Chris, I don't know what to do.
We've got to get help.
- I know.
You kids got your seat belts on?
You better put yours on as well.
- Shut up and get us in the air!
- It's okay.
It's okay, just hang in there.
We're going to get help.
Chris!
- What's happening?
- I can't stop the bleeding.
It's everywhere!
I don't know what...
I'm just not sure what to do.
- Just...
Apply some pressure to his wound
and keep his legs up.
- Sorry.
- Okay, we're going here.
- That's in the middle of nowhere.
We've got to get him to a hospital.
- Didn't you hear me?
- Just let me call the base.
- No!
No radios, you just
fly the bloody plane!
- All right. All right.
Everybody hang on.
- Now you going to tell
us what your problem is
or what?
- [Jimbo] No, it's nothing.
- Right.
- You've got kids, haven't you Ronnie?
- [Ronnie] Yeah, five of them.
- How old were you when
you had the first one?
- Just out of school.
Why?
- No reason.
- You haven't got someone
pregnant, have you?
- Wish I did.
- So what's the problem?
- Oh, it's nothing.
- Yes it is.
What's up?
- Nothing.
It doesn't matter.
(Atmospheric music)
- Don't die, granddad.
- No way.
We've still got a cubby
house to build, don't we?
- Jess.
Back in your seat.
- [Tom] Cold...
- He's going into shock, Lexie.
You've got to keep him warm.
- Hold this for me, honey.
Come on.
That's it.
Have you got blankets packed?
- He can use my sleeping bag.
- Good girl.
- It's not too late, you know.
We can still get him to a hospital.
I don't know what the story is,
but breaking custody's
one thing, murder...
- Shut up.
Just shut up, I haven't
murdered anyone.
- Maybe not yet.
- [Lauren] Charlie tango delta
this is big sky base.
- I have to answer it.
- No, leave it.
- Charlie tango delta, this is Lauren
at big sky base.
Where are you guys?
Chris, Lexie?
- It's aviation regulations.
If I don't answer, they'll
send a search party.
- Let me think.
- Look,
I don't even have to touch the dials,
I could just grab the mic.
- [Lauren] You two bound for
a picnic, or something?
I need you to pick up
something at ib station
on your way back.
- [James] Okay.
- Big sky, this is Charlie tango delta.
- I was starting to wonder about you.
Did you hear my message
about ib station?
- Yeah, no worries.
- [Lauren] How's it all going there?
Is everything okay?
- Everything's fine.
- And you're on schedule
for the warrenbungles?
- Yeah, we're making great time.
Matter of fact we've got a tailwind.
Tell Scotty I'm on course
to smash his record
to Griffith on may the first.
- Yeah, what's so famous about it?
- You better ask him.
He tells the story better than I do.
- Okay.
So, shall I tell Ted
Brooks you'll be there
within an hour?
Chris?
- Yeah, no worries.
Charlie tango delta.
(Panting)
- He can't breathe.
It's like he's drowning.
- Look, we're two minutes
from the nearest town.
Let me put down and
get him to hospital,
then I'll take you
wherever you want to go.
- [James] No.
- But you've got to, he'll die!
- Didn't you hear me?
- I don't want to go camping anymore.
- Oh, Jess.
- I want to go home.
I want mom.
- Come on, Jess.
Please, don't be upset.
We're going to be
really happy soon, hey?
Just you me and Adam.
- Hey!
- Something's wrong,
I've got engine trouble.
- Well can't you fix it?
What's the noise? - I don't know.
I don't know what it is.
I'm going to have to
put down somewhere.
- No, you can't!
- I've got to!
(Jess screams)
- Let me out! I want to get out!
Stop it! Please!
- Chris!
- Stupid bastard.
I should blow you away.
We only need one pilot on this flight.
One more stunt like
that, and you're gone.
- Well, with Darryl, I
mean he was our first.
I didn't know what to do.
I felt like a spare one
at the bloody wedding.
I didn't have a clue.
The one thing I do remember, though,
was June was screaming her
bloody head off, mate.
And there I was, being
picked up by the nurse
off the floor.
- What, you fainted?
- Well...
Yeah, I hadn't eaten for 12 hours.
But by the time the
last one came, mate,
it was an old hat.
June and I, we decided that we wanted
to have a home birth,
so there was just the two
of us and the midwife.
- What, you're kidding.
You delivered your own kid?
- Yeah.
Right there at home, mate.
(Laughing)
I caught the little thing in my arms,
cut the cord off.
Oh, gee.
It was absolutely fantastic.
Ah, mate.
If there's ever one thing in life
you don't want to miss
out, it's seeing your kids
come into the world.
Make sure you don't
when it's your turn.
- Maybe it never will be.
- That's the way you
feel about kids now,
but you wait.
Couple years time,
you'll change your mind.
Believe me.
- Okay.
- [Lauren] Ah, Scotty.
- Yo.
- Chris said I should ask you
about your famous flight
to Griffith last year.
- Aye.
- Yeah, what about it?
He said you broke some sort
of record, or something.
- Did it later.
I had a bomb onboard.
- What?
- Yeah, all the nutters
coming out at Christmas.
- [Lauren] Scary.
- You could say.
- Near Christmas?
- Yeah, jimbo was in a Santa suit.
- No, Chris said may.
He said the famous flight
to Griffith last may.
- May?
No, he's lost it.
I wasn't even working here last may.
- Hmm.
What's he on about?
He did sound a little bit weird.
- [Scotty] When did you talk to him?
- Just now on the radio.
- And he definitely said may?
He's pissed.
- He said just tell Scotty
about the famous...
Something about the
famous flight to Griffith
last may 1st.
- Mayday.
- Well, what do I say?
He might not be able to talk?
- Tell him...
Tell him Scotty wants to know
if he's trying to upstage him,
or something like that.
(Dramatic music)
- Come on, Tom.
Don't give up on me.
- Under the car...
No, no.
It's in the back.
We...
- Tom.
Can you hear me?
- He's going to die.
- Shut up.
- Sarah!
- He wants my Nana.
- Can't you see what you're doing?
You've got to let us land!
- Nobody's taking my kids!
- This is not about kids now.
- Hey, I know what you're doing!
We stop now, I lose my kids forever!
- I want to go home.
- Shh.
I know you do, sweetheart.
- [Lauren] Charlie tango
delta this is big sky.
What's your position
there please, Chris?
- Leave it.
- Charlie tango delta, this is big sky.
Chris, this is Lauren.
You keep trying.
I'm going to call the
air traffic control.
- Uh, Charlie tango delta,
this is Scotty at the base.
Are you there Chris?
- Uh, yeah hi this is
Lauren Allen from big sky.
We think one of our planes
might be in trouble.
Can you check him for us, please?
- Tom...
Tom?
Chris, I think he's dying.
- Well you're going to
have to shake him, Lexie.
Don't let him pass out.
- Tom? Tom, can you hear me?
Don't sleep, please.
You have to talk to me.
- [Scotty] Charlie tango
delta, this is big sky base.
Chris are you there?
- If you're not going
to let me answer it,
at least let me turn it off.
- No, don't touch it.
- We've got him, Lauren.
Tracking 270 at 50 miles.
- West?
Where the hell is he going?
- I don't know, he's heading
out of controlled air space.
We'll lose him from the
screen in about four minutes.
- Just let me turn it
off so we can think.
- All right.
- Please, Tom
come on.
Hang in there.
- There's not much out there.
Any idea where he might be headed?
- It's him.
It's a 7700.
- Lauren, looks like we've got
a hijacking on our hands.
- Tom...
Tom?
Tom.
Please.
Oh god, please!
(Sobbing)
Chris, I can't wake him!
- Wake up, grandpa!
- [Chris] Is he breathing?
- I don't think so.
- Well, check his pulse!
(Sobbing)
- There's nothing, I can't!
There's no pulse!
- You hear that, pal?
(Lexie sobbing)
(Crying)
- That's right, sir.
Number plate nnc 673.
- [Policeman] Do you know how
many children he had with him?
- He said two.
- There's a call for you.
Lauren, is there anything I can do?
- No, I'm all right.
Thanks.
Is there any word?
- Nothing.
- They found mccourt's car
and another one.
There's also blood at the scene.
- Oh my god.
- That's it, I'm out of here.
- No, don't be silly Scotty.
How can you expect to find him?
- Well, come on.
It's better than sitting
around here anyway.
We know his last positive fix,
we know he's tracking 270.
There's not that many
places to land out there.
- Maybe he put down in
a paddock somewhere.
- Maybe.
So if I track his line, I'll see him.
(Sobbing)
- Jessie, please stop crying, honey.
(Sobbing)
Hey!
- Stop it!
Stop, dad! Don't! Don't!
Please don't!
(Gun firing)
(Jess screams)
(Dramatic music)
- You idiot!
You could have killed us!
(Alarm sounding)
Something's wrong.
We'll try to get it back.
We're going to lose an engine.
Hang on.
- Have you got anything
sharp in your pockets?
Okay, now put your hands
like this and lean forward.
It's okay.
- Okay, here we go.
(Kids screaming)
Doesn't look good.
The bullet's ripped a
hole in my oil line.
I don't know if I can
get it back in the air.
- Then she can.
- There should be some
instant airframe onboard.
- That might help.
- There must be something you can do.
- You have any bright suggestions?
- Hey.
You know the kids will
get really dehydrated
if you make us sit out
here much longer.
- Tell your mate here to hurry up.
- [Lexie] Why don't you just
let me take them back onboard?
- Make sure you stay up the back, here.
Got it?
- I got a couple of kids myself.
Bit younger than yours.
Jack and Chloe.
They can be a handful.
- [James] Shut up.
- I reckon I know what
you're going through.
My wife and I split
up, she got the kids.
I just...
I miss having them around.
- You wouldn't know.
- So why'd your missus get the kids?
Of course, society couldn't cope.
Was that it?
(Scoffs)
- No way.
I'm a good father, all right?
And I love my kids.
- Yeah, I can tell that.
So what happened?
- It wasn't my fault.
Place dried up in the drought.
No water, no wheat.
No wheat, no money.
The banks were pushing me.
Me and her...
Just started yelling at each other.
- And she took off?
- Back to the city.
And I tried to make it work.
I tried so bloody hard.
Oh, but you know what it's like.
When a woman's unhappy, she gets angry
and it gets real tough.
One day I come home,
and they're gone.
My whole family.
Just like that.
- [Chris] What about visiting rights?
I can see my kids every
couple of weeks.
- Yeah.
Your kids don't live 400 bloody
kilometers away, do they?
You know what I get?
A phone call a week, if I'm lucky.
School reports in the mail.
Two weeks of bloody school holidays.
You ever tried kissing somebody
goodnight over the phone?
- So you're just going to
take them and go bush?
- Yup.
- Well, how long do you think
you're going to last out there?
- Hey, I can look after them.
- What with?
No food, no shelter.
What if one of them gets sick?
- We'll be all right.
I love my kids.
- Yeah?
Well I'd be asking myself
who I'm doing this for.
I wouldn't put them through this.
- Well, I don't give a
damn what you'd do.
I love my kids, all right?
Now fix this bloody plane.
- Big sky, this Charlie tango delta
it's Lexie, are you there, Lauren?
- Hey, I think I've got something!
- Big sky base, it's Lexie.
Please, someone.
- Lexie, it's jimbo.
What's going on? Where are you?
- Oh, jimbo thank god.
Listen, plane 270,
about 55 minutes.
- [Jimbo] Lexie?
- Hey.
Put it down.
- [Jimbo] Lexie, you still there?
- I think we're somewhere out near...
- I said put it down, now!
- We had a false landing.
(Gunshot fires)
(Kids scream)
(Kids crying)
It's okay.
I'm all right.
- You bloody idiot.
- Look, I could have shot her
and not the radio.
Now.
Get back there where you were.
- Go on, I'm all right.
Hey guys, it's okay.
I'm all right.
Really.
- They're about 45
minutes out of gilmore
when they went down.
- Now heading west, with the
wind coming from the right,
that puts them about here.
I'll call Scotty.
- Mm-hmm.
- [Jimbo] Scotty.
Last known position is approximately
20 miles southeast of wolgan.
- [Scotty] I got you, mate.
Julian Oscar Charlie.
- Honey, I need you to try and
bandage this for me, okay?
I want you to wrap it round,
make it as tight as you can.
- Won't it hurt?
- I need to try and stop the bleeding.
Can you do this?
- [Adam] Yes.
- How much longer?
- Not much.
(Screams)
- Adam.
Get away from her!
(Dramatic music) (Shouts)
(Grunting)
(Grunts)
Bastard!
Ill kill you!
- No! (Gunshot fires)
No more, dad.
Please.
(Sobbing)
- Let's wait inside for mum.
- I'll take them.
Come on, guys.
(Engine starting)
- You jumped on a man with a gun.
What were you thinking?
- [Jimbo] There you go.
- Last time I want to try being a hero.
- Yeah, me too.
All I did was nearly get us killed.
- We're going to the
safari bar for a drink.
Do you want to come?
- No, not this time.
I got somewhere to go.
I'll see you later.
- See ya.
- Dad!
- Dad!
- [Chris] Good day.
- What are you doing here?
- Oh, a surprise visit!
Are you going somewhere?
- Yeah, and we're running late.
Come on, get in the car.
- [Jack] Can't dad come with us?
- Not today, sweetheart.
Come on.
- [Chris] So how'd your interview go?
- Oh, good I think.
I find out next week.
- Well, I'll just give you
these and let you go.
- What's this, a bribe?
- No, it's an apology.
I guess I was taking things...
You for granted.
I'm sorry.
- Thank you.
- I just wanted you to know that.
- We have to go.
- Sure.
See you soon.
