01x05 - Love Kitten

[bunniefuu]

JOE: Get a grand
suite if you like.

If you use your credit card...
I don't have a credit card.

I refuse to pay the
bloody bank fees.

You thought I wouldn't be able
to pay for dinner, didn't you?

BIRDIE: I'm sorry
I doubted you.

Is Joe's unreliability
a spur to your anxiety?

Or could your anxiety...

be turning small
things into big dramas?

Joe, we were waiting for you.

I mean, I was really worried.

JOE: Look, I'm sorry, I
was saving a boy's life.

You weren't at the
front of my mind,

I'm sorry, I have to admit.

It sounds simplistic,

but you just might
have to trust Joe.

ANTON: I'm sorry, but you
haven't met his kids yet,

you haven't been to his place.

It's like you're his dirty
little secret or something.

Are your friends making
you feel bad again?

He does like you, Anton.

Yes, he's invited
you to his wedding.

Where's the flight details?

I only met your mum briefly,

but you're all she
wanted to talk about.

I just don't know
why I trusted her.

Her stories were like these
perfect little three-act plays.

JOE: Eldorado.

It's a grand old house
on just over 100 acres -

prime grazing land.

Maybe you can write a
review of it when I buy it.

Thought I'd show you
another property first.

Jacaranda.

Just in case the deal
for Eldorado falls over.

BIRDIE: I couldn't care less
if you have money or not.

Are you playing me?

Oh, my God.

Joe...

What is this?

JOE: Didn't I say it was grand?

It's a beautiful
property, Percy.

PERCY: Thank you.

Would you mind if I showed
Birdie the main bedroom?

BIRDIE: Why didn't you
tell me it was like this?

JOE: I have a disgusting
amount of money.

I only care about you.

Now when I start worrying,

I just tell myself...

everything's fine.

JOE: Oh, smoked cow's udder,

rams testicles cooked in
cream and single-malt whiskey

and seared fish semen.

Oh stop, I filed
that months ago.

I was really hoping it
wouldn't make it to print.

How do you sear a fish semen?
The guys are f*cking clown.

God, I can't do this
for much longer.

Hang on.

I've got a feeling
some good things

are going to start
happening. Hm?

I'll drop Mercy at the kennels.

I'll finish some stuff
off at the office.

I'll grab my suit
at the dry cleaners

an you'll swing by,
pick me up in Uber.

Mm-hm. Which dry cleaners?

The dinky one. South
Melbourne, just near my office.

I can't believe it's tomorrow.

They've been talking about
getting married for years.

Are you going to pack that shirt

that I bought you
for your birthday

with the little bluebirds on it?

Perfect for a country wedding.

Are you going to tell me
which undies to wear too?

[LAUGHS] Wh... While I'm at it.

Uh...

- See you soon.
- Mm-hm.

Alright, Mercy. Mercy.

Come on. Let's go.

[HUSHED CONVERSATIONS]

I thought you were away on
your big, romantic adventure.

Yeah, I just forgot my charger.

What's with the weird vibe.

Ah, they're worried
if people don't apply

for the voluntary redundancies,
they'll start tapping people.

Oh! Oh, let me know what
the new editor's like.

Yeah. See you Monday.

JOE:

[PHONE RINGS]

Hi! What's Tovey's
parents' place like?

- Are you there?
- MARGEAUX: Oh, it's lovely.

Well, is his sister there?

MARGEAUX: Oh, Jessa
can't make it.

She's backpacking
in Lisbon or Berlin

with some kind of Italian
opera-singer boyfriend.

Anyway, you know Kath put you
and Joe out in the guest house?

I mean, do you know that?

Yeah, well, it's the only
other room with an ensuite.

- Yes?
- I was expecting that... uh...

Oh, it's just, I really
don't know what I'll do

- if I need to...
- Well, just... go before bed.

It's just I'm up and
down all night, you know.

God knows how I'll find
it from the kids' room,

sharing a bunk with
Rory and everything,

and, you know, lucky
she wants the top.

Mum, I'm not swapping with you.

Joe and I can't sleep in bunks.

MARGEAUX: No, I never
suggested that, no.

Of course a couple needs
to take the guest house.

Old, single women and children
are better seen and not heard.

Well, I've got to hang up now

because I've got
to call an Uber.

- I'll see you soon.
- I'm just making sure that...

Hi.

Hi.

- Just one bag?
- Yeah. Thank you.

My family.

Ah. Beautiful kids.

- All children are beautiful.
- [CHUCKLES]

- Do you have kids?
- Ah, no, no, no.

Oh. How come?

Ah... Bad luck.

Bad men. Too late.

[LINE RINGS]

Hi, I'm in the Uber.

We're about five minutes
from your office.

JOE: Ah, hey, I'm not there.

Where are you?

JOE: Ah, there's been
a change of plans.

What change?

JOE: Well, I had to drop
by my bank manager's

to release the deposit
for the Eldorado sale.

What?

Percy finally
accepted your offer.

JOE: Mm-hmm, I told you
I had a good feeling.

Deadline for the
deposit's at 3pm.

Oh, well, we'll be
on a flight at 3pm.

JOE: Well, hang on, I thought
you'd be a bit more excited.

Oh, I... I am!

I... I am, Joe, it's just...

Oh, God, why today?

I mean, they've been dragging
their feet for months.

JOE: Yeah, look, I guess
he had a change of heart.

Look, I'll get a cab
in about five minutes

and I'll race you
to the airport.

OK. [LAUGHS] Good luck.

JOE: Alright, hey, the bank
manager's just come in.

I've got to go. I'll
see you there. Bye.

[JOE HANGS UP]

Oh...

[DRIVER CHATS INDISTNCTLY]

Oh, sorry, just straight
to the airport now.

We don't have to pick
up the other passenger.

Oh, right, no problem.

Do you mind if I

I just realised it's going

so I'll pick up your suit.

There's no need to call me back.

I hope it's going well.

Sorry, can you actually
just take a left

Oh, babe, why do

I'm going to come see you soon.

No, I just have to drop

Oh, come on... Babe.

Don't be mad with me, please.

Mi gatita, princesa, baby,

I'll come see you

I can't wait to see you.

What? No, I told
you I left Mishti.

Why do you keep
bringing that up?

OK, well, your sister-in-law
is talking sh*t, alright?

Because I'm just
there for a few weeks

to save the rent and
help her with her kids.

Yes, I know they're my kids too.

OK, it's just complicated
right now, Gia, alright?

Yes, it's complicated.

OK, you're starting

Gia!

Gia, please!

[PHONE RINGS]

- Hi.
- JOE: Uh, Liam's gazumped us.

He's put a last-minute
offer on Eldorado.

- How much?
- [BEEPING]

JOE: Eh, he's blown it up
by an extra million bucks.

DRIVER: Miss, seatbelt, please.

Oh...

BIRDIE: Oh, no.

JOE: Yeah, so I'm gonna have
to see my business partner,

see if I can move
some money around.

Oh, no, Joe, you're
gonna be late.

JOE: Hey, hang on, I
said I'll be there.

Look... Look, I'm
sorry. I'm stressed.

I need to find 100K to make up
the deposit shortfall by 3pm,

otherwise we're
gonna lose Eldorado.

Have you got another 100K?

JOE: Yes, yes, of
course I've got it,

but it's tied up in a trust
with Olivia and Harry,

and Mary's making it
difficult to access.

I can't get a bridging loan from
the bank until 9am tomorrow.

Oh, my God.

Well, there must be
something we can do.

I don't want to lose Eldorado.

JOE: Yeah, well, I think
we'd better brace ourselves

for that eventuality.

Unless you can magic
up 100K you can loan me

until 9am tomorrow,

well, then, you know, I
think Liam's gonna get it.

Hey, hang on, here's
my business partner.

I'll call you back in a sec.

W-Wait, Joe, are you
gonna make the flight?

[BEEPING]

You alright?

Oh, yeah, thanks. I just

Oh. Me too. [CHUCKLES]

MAN: Have you seen my girl Gia?

DRIVER: No, I haven't
heard from Gia.

Gia?

No, sh... She wouldn't do
that. No, I doubt it, Paulie.

You probably just need to
give her some space, man.

..girls are like, man. [LAUGHS]

WOMAN: Hi, you've reached
VicBank. My name is Amy.

How can I help you today?

[SHAKILY] Oh, hi. Yeah... I've
just transferred some money

from my microshares account,

and it says it's gonna take two
to three business days to clear.

I don't understand.

Is there anything I can do
to expedite the process?

AMY: Sorry, transfers from
your microshares platform

will clear on Monday
at the earliest.

Is there anything I can do
to get that money today?

AMY: No, transfers from
non-linked platforms

take at least 48 hours.

Is there anything else I
can help you with today?

What's the turnover
on a personal loan?

AMY: The bank's approvals
on personal loans

is very fast, usually
within 24 hours.

OK. Thanks.

- How's the trip?
- Yeah, I'm just on my way.

Um, hey, Peggy, if I was to take
one of the redundancies at work,

how quickly do you
think I'd get the money?

PEGGY: What? And, no,
that's a ridiculous idea.

It's a terrible offer.

Yeah, no, just hypothetically.

PEGGY: Hypothetically, you could
negotiate it for next payroll,

but, mainly, get
f*cked. Are you insane?

We have one of the last secure
jobs in a dying industry.

Do you have any idea
what it's like for women

out there at the moment?

A fast-track to join
the middle-class,

middle-aged,
menopausal, unemployed.

It's a f*cking bloodbath.

OK, sure.

Th... Thanks. I've got to go.

PEGGY: Can you just
forget work for a minute?

Enjoy your sexy weekend

- Yeah, I will.
- Is everything OK?

Yeah, I've just got to go.

I'm probably at the bar,

so leave a message or come
down and buy me a drink.

[BEEP!]

Anton, it's me. [STAMMERS]
Can you call me back?

It's urgent.

I was just wondering if
I could borrow back, um,

the grand that I gave
you for the flowers.

I just... I just
need some cash flow.

Um...

I can go straight to the florist
at 9am tomorrow and pay them.

I just need the
money today, by 3pm,

if you can.

Um...

I'm on a flight in 30 minutes,

and I need it before then.

Sorry.

[SOFTLY] sh*t.

f*ck.

[BEEPING]

BIRDIE: Yeah, I'm going
to put my seatbelt on.

[LINE RINGS]

Hi, Mum.

Hey, a bunch of
musicians have turned up.

They can't play a
tune between them.

I think they're
sleeping in vans,

playing their bong-bongs.

Mum, I need to ask a big favour.

- I'm on the way to the airport.
- Oh, yeah?

Can I borrow some
money until tomorrow?

MARGEAUX: Yeah,
how much? What for?

- 40 grand.
- What the f*ck?

I can pay you back by 9am.

I just can't get it out
of my bank quick enough.

MARGEAUX: Oh, my God!
What have you done?

The sale for Eldorado is
going through today at 3pm.

But that happened months ago.

I thought that had
all gone up in smoke.

Yeah, so did I. But now
it's suddenly back on,

and there's another bidder.

Joe and I have got to find

another $100,000
for the deposit,

or we'll lose the property.

Doesn't your millionaire
boyfriend have that?

He does, yes, but it's tied up
in a trust for his children.

There's the divorce, the
ex-wife. It's complicated.

It's really boring,
darling. Just go on, yeah.

If you can transfer
me the money,

I'll have it back in
your account tomorrow.

[MARGEAUX SIGHS]

Listen, the toilet is a
LONG way down the hall

from the bunk room.

I'm just worried about,

you know, waking Rory
when I turn the light on.

You can have the guest
room. I don't care.

I mean, Joe and I can
have the sofa bed.

MARGEAUX: Oh, no, no, no. I
would never ask you to do that.

You didn't, and Joe will
be fine with the sofa.

He's... He's a
bushman at heart.

MARGEAUX: OK, so, listen,
I don't have 40 grand,

but I have got a little bit I
put aside for some solar panels,

but I need it back in
the account the next day.

I need it in there tomorrow,

because the solar
man's coming next week.

How much is it?

- MARGEAUX: It's $20,000.
- For solar panels?

- Did you ring around?
- Of course I rang around.

Can you get Tovey's dad to
drive you into the bank?

MARGEAUX: Oh, Christ.
It's 10 minutes into town.

You'll make it if you go now.

MARGEAUX: Oh, well, if you get
me off the phone, I can, yeah.

OK, OK, go.

- Mum?
- Hmm?

BIRDIE: Thank you.
It means a lot.

Yeah, well, just remember this

when it's time to put
me in a nursing home,

and put me in a
bloody fancy one,

and do not give me chocolates,

because I hear that the
nurses steal them all,

and you've got to
watch me eat them

and then take the rest home.

- Promise.
- OK.

- Go.
- Yeah, well, I'm going!

I'm going! You go first.

Thanks.

Please leave a message, and
I'll get back to you when I can.

Joe, I got you 70 grand.

$50 from my book account,

and $20 from Mum, on loan.

I had to do a deal with
the devil to get it,

But it'll be in my
account in 20 minutes.

I know it's not the full 100K

but it's got to count
for something, right?

[SIGHS] I just want to help.

I just...

Just call me back as soon as
you've finished your meeting

[SIGHS]

Ma'am, you should be a bit
more careful, you know?

There's a lot of scammers
out there these days.

Oh, no...

Oh, this? No, this
is not a money scam.

My partner's buying a property.

It's just complicated.

Oh, right.

I can totally understand why
that sounded weird, though.

He's got a lot of
money, my partner.

He's quite wealthy, so...

- Oh?
- [PHONE RINGS]

DRIVER: Good for you.

Hi.

ANTON: You're totally
off your tree.

Birdie, you're
seriously squeezing

me, Tovey, and your mum

to bankroll your
boyfriend's stupid mansion,

the day before my wedding,

and we've already bought
the flowers from the farm.

Alright, alright, just
don't worry about it.

ANTON: I AM worried about
it, Birdie, because this...

it all seems crazy,
don't you think?

I mean, what exactly
are you trying to do?

- I'm...
- What's your plan?

I'm trying, Anton.

I'm trying to... trying
save my f*cking future.

ANTON: OK, so how? Talk
me through that. How?

It's not a stupid mansion.

That was going to be our home.

ANTON: Oh, I didn't mean
to say stupid, Birdie.

I'm stressed here.

I'm waiting for the
champagne guy to come.

The marquee's been put
up in the wrong place.

Honestly, I've got...

You three never want
to come to my flat.

- ANTON: That is bullshit.
- There's always an excuse.

ANTON: Our place is just
bigger. Absolute bullshit.

You don't know
what it feels like!

You've always had someone.

I don't come home to anyone.

ANTON: Wow.

Jesus, I'm sorry. Sorry.

I'm acting crazy. I am crazy.

I'm just, I'm f*cking...

[GROANS] I... [BREATHES DEEPLY]

I'll pull myself together.

ANTON: No, I'm sorry, Birdie.

I haven't been the
best friend sometimes.

Oh, don't... Don't
feel sorry for me.

- ANTON: How much do you need?
- 30 grand.

Even with your thousand, it
doesn't make a difference.

I can't do it. Just...
Just don't worry about it.

ANTON: Do you trust Joe?

Oh!

Yes, I do.

ANTON: Are you sure you
want to lend him 30K?

Because... that's
a lot. That's huge.

I just know, in 10 years' time,

none of this is going to matter.

I'm going to have to
go. Joe might call.

ANTON: Hang on,
just give me a sec.

I just need to talk to Tovey.

Hang on.

You there?

Anton, I'm fine.

Just... I'm sorry. I'm so...

stressed out of my mind
I can't think straight.

ANTON: I can give
you a line of credit

from the Falconers account
if it's just until tomorrow.

OK, Birds?

I'll borrow it from
my payroll account

and you boomerang it back before
Friday or we're... [EXHALES]

we're sunk, so...

Oh, it's too much.
You don't have to.

ANTON: Shut up before I
change my mind, OK? [LAUGHS]

I know you've...

I know you've struggled
with the love stuff.

You helped me find out
who I was, so, um, yeah.

- Not straight?
- [LAUGHS]

Yes.

Oh... And now I'm
getting married

to someone I've
loved for so long

and... [EXHALES]
..you're a part of that,

so...

If I can help you
have something too,

I mean, I want to.

Love you, Birds.

I love you too.

Text me your bank details
and I'll make the transfer.

- I'll see you soon.
- OK.

And has that person checked in?

Maybe you should try
calling your partner?

Yeah, right. f*ck off.

Uh, I'll show you the email.

It's just a bit of a mix-up,

JOE: [ON RECORDING] Hi,
you've reached Joe Burt.

Please leave a message and I'll
get back to you when I can.

Have you even booked?
