Dying Breed

Run, you bastard!

I think I see something there.

Over there!

Come on!

Let go the dogs!

Get onto him.

There!

Let's go, then! Down you go!

Hold fast, you Irish sh*t!

So you thought you'd

leave hell, would you?

Timmy! I have Pearce!

Timmy!

Your hands, get 'em up!

Up!

Well, as you will.

Irish are all the same.

Over there!

You okay?

Yeah. I'm good.

You sure your friend is fine with this?

Yeah.

Jack's an old mate.

Plus, I told him his picture would

be plastered across the front page

of every newspaper in the country if

he helped us find this tiger, so...

That's if we find it.

A small detail.

I can't wait to meet him.

Hey.

Yeah, I know. Relax.

- Yes.

- I'm good. I'm excited.

Good.

Wow! You look the same.

Obviously been working it off.

I'm proud of you, mate.

You know, we grew up as neighbors.

Did everything together.

Yeah, I heard.

Not everything.

So this trip of ours...

Let's agree on 60/40?

- 60/40...

- All right, 50/50.

But that includes marketing rights.

What?

Oi!

Go easy, mate. This

trip means a lot to her.

I'm doing her a favor, remember?

Yeah, you are. It's just her sister.

- Remember?

- That was ages ago.

That was eight years

ago, which isn't long.

This is the same trip... Just be aware.

That's all I'm saying. Be sensitive.

Okay. Hey, I'm Mr. Sensitive.

- All right?

- Okay.

Does she swallow?

Is this it?

Yeah, absolutely.

Plenty of room for the four of us.

Who's the fourth?

Rebecca.

Who's Rebecca?

You didn't expect it to be

just the three of us, did you?

I mean, that would be like traveling

with my parents, for f***'s sake.

Come on.

Yeah.

Nina, shotgun.

Get in the back.

God, it's beautiful.

Still pinching myself

we finally made it here.

Beats sitting in a real

estate office all day.

That bad, is it?

No.

Hey, how long was your sister here?

About two years.

She kind of fell off the radar

towards the end there, so...

Hey, Nina, there's money

to be made, isn't there?

If you can prove that this tiger exists.

Is that true, Nina?

I'm not going to bite.

A local paper offered over a

million dollars, apparently.

Mind you, though, if we do find this

thing, we probably won't recognize it

because it'll be so f***ing inbred.

You're full of it.

- Do you have an "off"

switch? - Mm-hmm. Right here.

So which drop we

heading for again, mate?

I think it's this one.

Hang on. Is it...

Maybe it's this one. No, no, no...

We're not lost yet.

Must be weird, though...

following your sister

here after so long.

Yeah.

I just want to finish what she started.

You know?

Well, Pieman River.

Welcome.

- Nothing.

- Oh, yes.

- We must have arrived, then.

- The house of serenity.

Oi! Tasmania! You awake?

Right here.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Done a little bit of acting in my time.

I got to wee.

Watch out for leeches.

You know, I could've been

in Thailand with Emily.

You would have missed me too much.

Need a hand?

Hey, sis, come here.

No teeth.

Hey! They're here.

Check out the color.

What is it, rust?

It's not rust.

Looks more like blood.

Yeah, right.

Come on.

F***!

Jeez!

You all right?

Yeah, I'm fine. I'm fine.

We're going to drive the car up.

Oi! Oi!

I'm okay.

- Yeah, yeah, yeah. F***.

- You're going to do it?

- All right. Don't scratch it.

- Oh, God.

She's definitely always on top.

You don't get a say ever, do ya?

Steady. Oh, God.

Okay, okay, okay.

Yep.

All right. Straight up.

- Great.

- Well done.

It's a freakin' antique! Look at her go.

Hey, tell them about

your idea for a bridge.

Yeah.

What's with the water?

Why's it look like blood?

Blood?

That's tannin.

Said the pieman to Simple Simon...

Hi.

- Simple Simon...

- What are those?

Simple Simon met the

pieman playing with a knife.

Said Simple Simon to the pieman,

"Will you take my life?"

That's a nice rhyme.

Can I have a look at those?

Sh*t! She bit me!

Yeah, well, pick on

someone your own size.

- I'm bleeding!

- Wheelhouse! Now!

Which is fine.

It's her boat and I'm a guest.

You know, they made a whole X

- Files series

on people like that.

Freaks.

Freaks!

Measuring 6 foot from tail to

hood, it was a formidable pest.

This, supposedly, is the last

known footage of the tiger

since it was hunted to extinction.

Hey. Hey.

However, unconfirmed

sightings in Western Tasmania

have cast doubt that, in fact,

the tiger's extinct at all...

This is all very

interesting, but nothing new.

I see no reason to fund your proposal.

To the right!

If you'll take a look at this...

What, precisely, are we looking at?

A paw print.

As you can see, it's a perfect match.

Come on!

And where did you source

this one from, the Net?

My sister took it.

You all right?

You lost anything?

Yeah. My desire to have children.

She tried to eat me alive. Look at that.

What do you want me to do? Do

you want me to kiss it better?

Yes.

Shite!

Look out! Look out!

- Any damage?

- Better not be any f***in' damage.

Jack, calm down. She

didn't hit anything.

Didn't you see him coming?

He came out of nowhere, Jack.

Don't blame me.

Let's not lose the plot. Everyone.

I mean, you were the one driving, Nina.

You ever heard of a

rearview f***ing mirror?

I swear it was a car.

Look, why don't we just get to the

town and we can have a drink, okay?

I think we all need it.

Thanks.

Just let him drive.

Make it a double.

Sarah.
