You cheeky little sh*t.

- Wait on.

- You wanna take care.

F***!

Get in the car.

What the f*** are you doing, mate?

Eh?

And just squeeze the trigger.

Shot! Up and back.

Up and back.

I camped here with your mum...

...just after we met.

We stole a Monaro

and dumped it up in Queensland.

This was the key.

She gave it to me

to remember the fun we'd had.

Here.

She was alright, you know, your mum.

It was like a...

like a travelling circus sometimes.

You might have even been made here.

Eh? Who knows?

Why don't you go see

if you can bag us some dinner, eh?

Did you get a rabbit?

I wouldn't mind some of that.

This is better than a TV.

You can make up your own program.

Dad?

Why'd you go to jail?

Oh, what... the last time?

Oh, that was just a couple of months.

That was just a sleep.

You know, me and...

Me and Max got pulled over

in a stolen car

and the cop started hammering us

so I laid into him.

Yeah, but I get caught for this one,

I do... I don't know, 15 years.

If you told them

you didn't mean to kill Max,

it was just an accident...

What's gonna happen to us?

Hey, we'll be fine.

But what if we're not?

Do you trust me?

What you doin'?

Getting some wood.

Ah, you're getting to be

quite the little bushie now.

You can look after yourself.

F***.

Jesus.

Chook?

Chook?

Chook?

Hey, Chook, what are you doin'?

Chook?!

Hey, we gotta leave, mate.

Oh, f***!

You stupid little bugger!

What do you think you're doin'?

Aagh!

Ah, f***!

Oh!

Oh!

Chook!

Hey, give us a hand.

I've busted my f***in' ankle!

F***.

Chook!

Chook, what the f*** are you doing?

Chook!

What the f*** are you doing?!

Oh, f***!

I know you can hear me.

Look, mate, whatever

I've done, I'm sorry.

Come on, mate, I'm your dad!

Chook!

F***.

Give us the rifle.

Give us the rifle, mate.

Oh, come on, will you?!

OK, it's alright,

it's alright. It's OK.

I've got a plan.

Come over here and I'll tell ya.

Come on, mate.

It's gonna be fine.

Come on.

Now, here's what we do.

What I need is

for you to go over there

and you tell 'em...

...you tell 'em you want to

talk to Maryanne.

I want to stay with you.

No, mate. No, no. I need you

to do this exactly how I tell ya.

Yeah? Can you do that for me?

Yeah, well, that's good.

I did it.

You did what, mate?

I told the cops we're here.

Oh.

Well, that's OK.

That's fine.

You done the right thing.

Come here, mate.

I love you.

I love you, Dad.

Yeah?

Yeah, off you go, eh?

You got your magic vest on.

Yeah.

Well, you'll be right, then.

# Hear the bell

# Deep and bright

# Ringing through the night

# All those words

# Talkin' slow

# Only you will know

# Is there anyone?

# Is there anyone home?
