01x06 - Episode 6

[bunniefuu]

Okay, we are good to go.

On arriving, Detective O'Rourke and I found this door ajar.

Now the locks are intact, no sign of forced entry.

So there's a chance she knew the intruder, let them in herself.

Nice observation, Detective.

Now, this print has been removed from the wall, torn apart.

Come on in.

Now if you have a look here, you'll notice that the

Oh, sh*t, sh*t.

Sorry, sh*t.

Um, one sec.

Hey, Hannah.

No, no, I can't right now.

I'm at a crime scene.

Yeah.

I gotta go.

Wait, wait, wait.

Sorry.

Don't ever apologize.

It appears to have been a hurried search through the entire premises.

Come into the kitchen.

Can you ask the local police to let her sons know?

And keep the details out of the media, Maya.

Just a simple more-to-come statement.

Okay.

Gabe?

Hmm?

Main struggle between the offender and the victim appears to have happened here.

She has a large gash in the side of her head, probably caused by that.

They've left her here while they turned the place over.

She crawls all the way to the bathroom.

She locks the door.

They smash the door in when they realize she's moved from the floor.

Pressure marks to the throat.

I mean, she was probably fairly incapacitated after the blow to the head, but it still takes

quite a deal of force to strangle someone to death.

And you have to watch them while you do it.

Yeah.

I mean, there's no mistaking it.

They want her dead this time.

Hey.

Tell them to move her out, guys.

Oh, excuse me.

Hey, Rose.

Hmm?

Camille had a red phone when we were here the other day.

Have you guys spotted it anywhere?

Um, no.

No phones.

No computers.

No tech left on the property at all, actually.

Oh.

Wilson's gone.

Yeah.

Wait a minute.

Is the pet cam still here?

Um, yeah.

If this is linked back to Sonya being k*lled, then it fits with an overall lack of good

planning when the pressure is on.

Yeah.

But you don't hire a hitman to strangle someone.

This is personal.

I already knew who was behind the m*rder of Sonya Matthews, and now they've shut her up.

Camille was a professional money launderer on a large scale.

She ran crews in multiple gaming venues across the city.

They show up each day around midday and start their shift.

But she cycles through them, so it's rarely the exact same team on any shift.

Eventually, after a few hours, one of them inevitably wins the jackpot.

Camille takes the winning tab and cashes it in at the cashier.

What are the numbers?

On this occasion, they put about $55,000 through the machines, came away with $47,000.

Two or three days a week, over a year, it's upwards of $5 million per venue.

Multiply it by 10, that's up to $50 million a year.

And for a 15% tax, walks away with freshly clean money.

I mean, this is sophisticated, organised crime.

Let's focus on where the dirty money's coming from, because there was no way she was working

alone.

OK, give me the details.

Look, I know you had a soft spot for Camille, but I can't have you going off half-c*ck.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I mean, how do you know she'd been k*lled?

Someone texted me.

Because, you know, you spoke to her in the first place, she gave you the g*ns.

Yeah, and I gave it straight to you.

So, I just don't understand why you didn't tell me.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I just don't understand why you didn't tell us she was a money launderer.

I mean, it's just huge.

Keith, she's running 50 grand through the pokies at a time.

Do you think she had any inkling you were a police officer?

Why would you ask me that?

I'm risking my neck all the time.

Look at me.

I am looking at you.

You know, she had something on whoever did this, some information to keep her safe.

I don't know, like, potentially exposing an undercover cop.

How long have we been mates for, Holz?

Hm?

I didn't k*ll Will.

That's our measure of a good guy, huh?

Hm.

Oh.

Oh, sorry.

You must have been burping like that, you were preggers.

Oh, sh*t.

Yeah, don't

Holz.

Just keep it to yourself.

Look, I think she's fallen out with her business partner because of the Sonia Matthews m*rder.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh.

Matthews m*rder.

Oh, then, well, look, I'll start seeing if I can find who Can owes laundering money for

them.

So the Pet Cam Company was able to give me access to their account

What is that?

That's that the back of the TV.

Now it sounds like she managed to switch it on once she locked herself in the bathroom.

It's faint though.

That's the bathroom door being smashed in.

And this is him leaving, black jeans, gloved hand.

So what's he saying to her?

I've tried to clean it up, taking out some of the sounds of her resisting.

Spit it out, you stupid b*tch.

Spit it out as in tell me where it is?

Or he was being literal.

We recovered a DNA sample from under her right index fingernail, which isn't surprising given

it was a strangulation.

She likely scratched her attacker's face as he was squeezing the, you know, life out of

her.

Yeah, fought to her last breath.

Oh yeah.

But unfortunately the DNA doesn't match anyone on our database.

Right side.

We did a full body scan after you rang in.

Yeah, you were right.

There was something weird.

Take a look at this.

This is her stomach contents.

See this lump?

It looks like a rock.

Yeah, it's actually soap.

She swallowed soap?

Technically, yes.

But hidden inside the soap was a little something else.

Ta-da.

Maybe he didn't go there to k*ll her, just lost his crap when she put it in her mouth.

Still m*rder.

Yeah, but to go back to your earlier point, he's making mistakes, getting out of control.

Might be experiencing a psychotic break of some sort.

No, no, no.

These are just the actions of some arrogant grub.

It's a person who feels entitled.

There's a number on the back.

This is a registered key.

Someone will have a record of it.

Her sons might have some insight into who she was working for.

Hi, Michael.

Michael Burney.

Yes, um

I'm Detective O'Rourke from Homicide.

I'm sorry to intrude at such a difficult time.

I'm just hoping you'd for a few minutes to talk about what happened to your mother, Camille,

last night.

Hey, careful.

Hey, easy, man.

This is where I ask c*ck.

Um, so are you the c*ck, or am I?

Oh, really?

Great.

Can you tell me what the key belongs to?

Okay.

Did she mention what she wanted it for?

No.

Fair enough.

Um, okay.

Could you send me that receipt?

Just text it to this number.

Okay.

What kind of locksmiths?

She bought a lockbox.

Looks like the weapon's safe in the back of our car.

Yeah.

g*n would make an excellent insurance policy.

You're not coming in.

Look, that's fine.

We just want to know if you can help us understand what might have happened to your mum.

Well, give me a name, and I'll give you an opinion on it.

Okay.

Come on, Dion.

You don't need to stuff us around.

We know what your mum was doing.

Mum kept us away from all that.

So you never even heard her say a name.

She never shared any concerns about people she was working with.

Maybe she fell out with someone recently.

Look, she, uh, she dropped by yesterday, wanted to talk, but I had a girl coming over, and

I just wanted to get rid of mum.

Did someone threaten her?

I don't know.

She did leave her an envelope of cash on the table.

Said I should buy something for my kids.

Okay.

Was she in touch with anyone else recently?

Didn't have a lot of mates.

Um, but she did check in on her aunt, Geraldine.

Lives out at, uh, Mount Albert, in an old person's home.

All right.

Um, did you ever see her with anything like this?

No.

Thanks.

Hey, Buzz.

Hey, Maya.

Can you guys go out to Mount Albert for me?

Holly, can we chat about that intel you just answered?

Uh, right now?

Now, if you don't mind.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay.

Sorry.

We should combine teams to deal with this.

No, I have to remain focused on Camille.

No, no, but hear me out.

We pool our resources, create a unit that you and I oversee together.

And we start with the workers at the bottom of the ladder, like her pokey crew.

We've already spoken to them.

They've got nothing to do with it.

Depends how you frame it.

If you give them the option to talk or face a conspiracy to m*rder charge

Dylan, I am not using a baby to break down a crime network.

My main focus is the victims, Sonia Matthews and now Camille.

God.

What? What's so funny?

Well, you said you're not using a baby to

No, I meant m*rder.

Yeah, I know.

Hey, listen.

Luke called.

And he was actually quite reasonable after he told me I'd desecrated the memory of my dead wife.

Wait, was he just venting or did he want something?

He asked me if I loved you.

Well, it's great that you two talked.

So is that a no then?

To us combining our units?

Camille asked her aunt to look after it for a few days.

Okay, here goes.

Okay.

Oh.

It's a property title for a piece of land.

Oh.

This is it.

Oh.

Wow.

So this is what Camille had on him.

Mr. Big's crop.

Oh.

By my calculations, we're looking at about 8,000 plants.

That's $10 million, maybe more.

So this is where the money's coming from.

Yeah.

Hey, how'd you go chasing that company name on the title?

Endless list of fake names.

Camille's done a very nice job of hiding any connection to a real living, breathing person.

We let this sit.

We continue trying to ID the k*ller.

And then we come back to the crop as supporting evidence.

I'll organise a surveillance crew to keep an eye on the farm.

Alright, and can you keep working on that name?

She's got to have used it for something other than just the farm.

Night.

Hey.

Holly, do you have a minute?

I'm sorry, I know that you're really busy

and everyone always wants something from you

and you are balancing a lot.

Okay, you just need to say it, Maya.

I can do more.

A lot more.

Okay.

You've made Gabe permanent.

Jared rides with you all the time.

But I'm stuck here doing the ladies' work

while you guys run around doing the fun stuff and high-fiving each other.

I'm sorry, I'm not

No, please do not say sorry.

I mean, you could be running your own homicide team, Maya.

And at the very least, you should become a sergeant.

Get your papers organised and I'll speak to Kirsten.

Great.

Okay.

Come on.

Is that my make-up?

It's all right.

I'm only using the good stuff.

Right.

Dad's here.

Bedroom.

Thai food for dinner?

Mm-hmm.

I just need to do something with this hair.

Right.

Thanks.

Oh, come on.

You haven't worn those in years.

I'm glad you're here.

The Butterfield case.

I'm going to need it back.

Sure, thanks.

And this is also for you.

It's a 50-50 split.

You can stay here.

I'll take the apartment.

We don't have to sign anything right now.

It's just a starting off point.

Um

So you're

Okay, so you're really going.

For good.

Yeah.

And Alice?

I think we should talk to her, see what she's comfortable with.

Well, I have

I have no issues with sharing custody.

I mean, she needs both of us.

Good.

Finally, something we can both agree on.

Can you not wheel the suitcase out in front of her, please?

I'm going to take it to get some fish and chips.

Bear can put it in the car while we're gone.

What?

You're so pleased with yourself, aren't you?

Oh!

Does this look like I'm despising another body?

Was that what I did?

Did I just k*ll my marriage?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Pretty much.

I hope you're not the first person to get divorced.

So it wouldn't be too hard on yourself.

First time for me.

What's this?

Um

It's just me sticking my nose in where it doesn't belong.

You know, that liquid eyeliner is waterproof.

Well

I wasn't

I wasn't planning on crying.

Or yet.

It's impossible to get off.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Hey, this is interesting.

The name on the Gros property title

appears on an old building permit for an aged care facility.

It's the one Camille's aunt was in.

Geraldine?

Yeah.

Le Guin Holdings applied to demolish

certain sections of the building in 2018.

This could be how they made the money legit.

Raised capital through the cannabis,

swashed it through the pokies,

bought an old person's home.

She wouldn't have gotten away

with using an alias for everything, though.

Are there any other names associated

with the care facilities that we can trace?

Banjo Patterson?

No, that's fake.

Boris Yeltsin?

Fake a*s.

Hannah Coorey?

Is she a singer?

Hon, I'll be back in a sec.

Get some munchies.

Hey, Hannah.

Hey.

You made it.

Okay.

You're gonna love this.

All the cards are for sale.

Come on.

It's a dream come true.

Hey, can I talk to you for a sec?

Yeah.

What's up?

Um,

I was thinking

What's up?

Um,

I need to, I need to ask you something.

You sound serious.

Have you ever repeated anything?

Like what?

Like, uh, just

some of the stuff about the cases that I'm working on.

No.

I don't think so.

Okay, so you didn't tell anyone

that we arrested the hitman?

It's just your name is in one of our files.

What?

Okay, but I'm a student.

Yeah, well, apparently

you're also part owner of an aged care facility.

It's my idiot uncle.

He makes me sign stuff.

Okay, okay.

Who's your uncle?

Louis V.K. Commodore.

I've done what I can with this one.

It's nice.

Yeah.

I want to replace it, though.

Oh, yeah?

You got your eye on anything here?

There's a couple of nice ones,

but I'm looking for something specific.

Have you heard

of a Walkinshaw Commodore Group A Sky Blue?

Yeah, I have, actually.

Do you know where I might find one?

Oh.

That's right.

You're on the news.

You're sitting behind the wheel

like a dead-set legend.

You're a snide-arse, aren't you?

You're up to your neck in it.

So is your girlfriend.

She's your niece.

Only by marriage.

Oh, it was an absolute joy

to see you again, Tony.

Hey,

your cop buddies ever come near me

and I'll make it clear

you've been running your mouth off?

I haven't done anything wrong, mate.

You've been feeding them information

via your girl

and letting me get ahead of the game.

Maybe

I even paid you.

Hey.

Hey.

You're not the only cop

I've got on the payroll.

You're not the only cop

I've got on the payroll.

You're not the only cop

I've got on the payroll.

Yeah.

Okay.

Nice try, mate.

Gabe.

Hey, can you meet me at HQ

like right now?

What?

I know who did it.

Where are you?

Called the park,

but listen,

it's that art guy,

Tony Wheeler.

What?

What are you talking about?

Gabe?

Gabe?

Gabe?

Gabe's apartment has been cleared.

We've spoken to his family.

They've heard nothing.

Tracker's on.

Gabe's phone and Wheeler's,

but we're not getting a signal

from either.

Crews are searching the area

around the cannabis farm.

Called Tony Wheeler's home

and office.

No sign of Gabe or Wheeler.

Have we got eyes

on all the airports?

Yeah, but is Wheeler

likely to try that

now that he knows

we're on to him?

Oh.

Okay, you gotta make it quick.

Something's coming up

about the guy

that came about the funeral.

No, Keith.

I've got a guy

flying solo

and he's gone missing.

Yeah, look.

Dylan McKenzie knew him.

His name was

on the original charge sheet.

What are you trying to say?

Holmes.

There's a rumor

that Dylan tipped off

Butterfield's k*ller.

Dylan was trying

to protect you

from Butterfield.

Let's not do this

on the phone.

I'll meet you later on.

No.

Um, Maya,

let's wind this back.

You said that Gabe

made a leap

from something

that you were looking at.

Yeah, a list of names.

Andrew Patterson,

Boris Yeltsin,

Hannah Curry.

Hannah?

Did he upload

the footage

from the crime scene?

Yeah.

Go to where I point out

the print on the ground.

Yeah, yeah, there.

Now, if you have a look here,

you'll notice that the

Uh, sh*t, sh*t.

Uh, sorry, sh*t.

Um, one sec.

Hey, Hannah.

No, no, I can't.

Okay, you two work out

who this Hannah person is

and I'm gonna get

Alan in here right now.

How's it going?

Got the guy in custody.

Wow.

Major.

Yeah, we said

I know what it's about

and, um,

the real target

has done a runner on us

so I might be here

for a while.

He recorded a police officer

multiple times

discussing classified information.

Joey.

It wasn't like that.

And your uncle paid you?

He covers my rent sometimes.

That doesn't mean

that he pays me.

You tried to infiltrate

a m*rder case.

I didn't.

I didn't.

You tried to infiltrate

a m*rder investigation, Hannah.

No, I didn't.

That's not what happened.

Where are they?

I don't know.

We need to know

where your uncle might go.

Honestly, I

I thought he went home

because

because he was mad at me.

Please.

Okay, Alan.

Sonia Matthews.

The woman you ex*cuted

for a $50,000 fee.

And that's the g*nsh*t wound

to her head.

You held the g*n

so close

that it singed her hair.

All of that happened

in front of her

eight-year-old stepson, Connor.

He even looked both ways

before he crossed the road

to go get help for her.

Eight years old.

He did the right thing.

And then we thought

for a minute,

you must have felt

some sort of shame

or guilt

for k*lling

the wrong woman.

But then there's her.

The real target.

Who Tony Wheeler

wanted dead

because they lost

the container

with his car inside.

And she's only alive

through sheer

luck and stupidity.

And that

is the woman

who organised

the $50,000

for this m*rder.

That's the woman

who organised

the $50,000

for the hit Camille

who laundered

Tony's drug money

for him,

paid his bills.

Now we know

you didn't k*ll her

because you were

in police custody

but we're pretty sure

that Tony Wheeler

who asked you

to do this

in the first place

did that to her

because she knew

all his secrets

and he had to shut her up.

And we both know

that he is coming

for you.

Might be some people

who see it

from your point of view

that this was

just a mistake

Whatever this is

Alan,

this vow of silence

it is pointless

because I am

charging you

with Sonia Matthew's

m*rder

and the attempt

on Tiffany.

So this is a

one time offer

that my boss

says that I should make

because you might

actually be able

to help us.

Now Tony Wheeler

appears to have

abducted a police officer.

If you have

any information

on where we might

locate him

I suggest you

start speaking.

You tell us

everything you know

and I'll place you

in protective custody.

Do you need me

to start counting back

from ten

while you decide

to do the right

f*cking thing

for once in your life?

Ten

Nine

Eight

Seven

Show me the deal

In writing

Information first

deal later

Start talking

Where did you meet him?

Where did you do

the deal with Tony

for the hit?

You go around

the bathroom aisle

with me

Matt

cover the western pier

on A21

get over here

Police stop

Let him go Tony

Hey, hey

Come on

Put him down Tony

Keep moving

Let him go

Let him go

f*ck you man

Put the g*n down

Let the bag go

f*ck

f*ck

Gabe

Gabe

I'm ok

I'm ok

Put the g*n down

Tony

Put the g*n down

Put the g*n down

f*ck

f*ck

f*ck

Don't

Don't

Stop doing

anything stupid

Tony

Stay there

What is it?

Have you got a plan

or is this

we're just

winging it now

I'm not

I'm not

I'm not

I'm not

I'm not

I'm not

I'm not

I'm not

I'm not

I'm not

I'm not

I'm not

That's your plan?

Shut up

I have the distinct impression

that Camille is the brains

behind this operation

right?

I don't reckon

you've got much of a plan

either

Maybe not

Maybe not

but I've got an idea

about your future

Here we go

You sound like her

The skin

from that scratch

under your eye

We have that

in our forensics lab

thanks to Camille

And all it takes

is one test

to put you

at the scene of the crime

And I'm pretty sure

that I can draw a line

between you

and Sonia Matthews

That was not

my f*ck up

Don't cheat, Tony

You blew all your money

on some old car

and runners

and then you skimped

on a hip man

who's already talking

to us

Help!

Help me!

Help me!

Help me!

Help me!

In breaking news

two men have been charged

with the m*rder

of Greensborough's

stepmother Sonia Matthews

We cross live to

police headquarters

for an update

Further to earlier

reports

The homicide team

have made a major

breakthrough overnight

in the m*rder

of Sonia Matthews

After a lengthy

investigation

OK

So you can take

these safely

for the chest pain

But if you experience

any abdominal bleeding

or

anything out of

the ordinary

come straight back in

OK, thank you

Can we go now?

Yes

You're good to go

Hey

Never do that again

Hey Al

Do you want to come here?

OK

What do you think

about being

an older sister?

What do you mean?

I don't know

if we had a little baby

Like a brother

or a sister for me?

Maybe

I can make that work

Really?

You would have to

do as I say

because I'm first

Oh

100%

You are my

number one

Does this mean

Dad's coming home?

Hey Alice

Maybe give

Mama a break

from the questions

just for now

Dylan

Oh

Hey

I was just

thinking

Oh

That's OK

Bear

Great Dylan

Come on

Let's go

That's OK

Sorry

I know this is awkward

but I had to come

How are you?

You alright?

You OK?

I'm a bit rough

Well you look

a bit rough

Sheesh

Yeah like

they've done

three different scans

I've had

bruises the size

of a dinner plate

on my chest

Nothing is broken

fortunately

It's just

The baby's OK

OK

OK

Good

Great

That's great

Hey

Are you all hungry?

You wanna

Just

Can we do it

tonight?

Because I just

don't think Alice

can handle

any more surprises

Oh yeah

Good of course

It's fine

You just

tell me whenever

you're ready

Come on Mum

Let's go

OK

I might even

change my shirt

for you

Oh

Don't go to

too much trouble

It's alright

You alright?

Yeah

So they'll

both go to prison

Yes

They've both

been charged

with Sonia's m*rder

and some other

offences

Do they know

that

I mean

do they

do they realise

that they didn't

just take Sonia

away from us

My little boy

has to live with

what he saw

that day

forever

I don't know Mike

But when they're sentenced

we can present

your side of things

to the court

The judge will listen

and take it into account

How is Connor?

OK I guess

We're working

on custody

and Bianca's

coming around

Sonia was just

unlucky I guess

Yeah

Hey hun

Hey

Wow

Dallas

you're looking

healthy

You too

detective

Oh

I thought

you might want

this back

Thank you

I hope

I never see you again

detective O'Rourke

Well if you don't

go slashing

anyone else's tyres

Mike

we should be fine

Jared?

Mike

A call came in

from a local unit

Reports of g*nshots

No ideas yet

It's not good Holly

Mike
