She is trying to raise forty thousand dollars to buy a shop for computer games on the next door of the rental and become partner of her boss, but based on her negative records, the banks deny the loan. Tracey takes care of her junkie stepfather Lionel Dawson, unsuccessfully trying to make him quit his heroin habit. When her former boy-friend Jonny returns from Vancouver, Tracey's mother Janelle fears a fall of Tracey, while she blames Jonny for the car accident where her son Ray lost one leg. When Ray and Jonny associate to Moss, the assistant of the retired criminal boss Bradley 'The Jockey' Thompson, in drug dealing, Tracey is convinced by Jonny to join them and raise the necessary money for her business along the weekend.

You know, you should have told your

mom I was coming last night, prick.

Stay in memory.

Yeah, absolutely.

Give us a look at that fun, will you?

This is weird.

What?

I don't know. I just feel...

Seeing you again we'll be more together.

What about this?

Did you speak to that guy?

Moss?

I told him we had 30 grand,

mate, and his eyes went like this.

C'mon, let's get out of here. I want

you to take me somewhere, will you?

Ray, I can't drive like this.

What's wrong? You're worried

you might have a crash?

Sorry.

Thanks, mate.

No worries.

Change those prices for me.

No worries.

You're alright?

Yeah. I've just got a bit of a cold.

I'll drop in, uh, later in

the way. I'll give you a ring.

Hello?

Tracy, it's me.

Jonny.

How did you get my number?

Ray.

Ray gave it to me.

It's hard.

It's hard being back.

It's harder than I thought.

Tracy, you're there?

I gotta go.

See ya.

Yeah. Yeah, sure.

You're okay?

Yeah.

You're okay?

Yeah, just wanna get home.

And Jonny wouldn't speak.

He had just lost his parents.

A feeling I will never forget.

As time goes on...

But Jonny has been in

Vancouver for four years.

He has been working very hard.

And he has a new job here in Sydney.

A stockbroker.

Today is 20 years since I married June.

June, thank you.

I don't know, Lionel.

You've got to do something.

Never had to pay for it.

A straight price?

I never had to find it.

No, I won't stand up in front of a

bunch of people and say that I was wrong,

that my life was wrong,

because it wasn't. It isn't.

I gotta strip for this

Salbutan and just wait.

Really?

Yeah, I'll be fine.

One week and I'm clean.

One week? Yeah, right.

Mmmmm.

How good is that?

Yummy.

Aren't you having any?

No.

Jonny's back.

Eh?

How is he?

He's great. He's clean.

He's a stockbroker.

Let him on the phone in the morning.

Most stupid.

No.

No boyfriend causes such a

commotion. What does that say?

It's okay.

Yeah. Is it?

Yeah, it is.

It's great.

The look on your face

after you spoke to him.

And now it's beyond that.

I'd kill for that feeling.

You got your stuff?

Trace... I haven't been

to the beach for years

and what is all. Like I'm on public.

I'll take you to the beach.

You're my darling.

Eat something.

Bye-bye.

See you, darling.

Do you like trading?

Yeah. Yeah, I do.

It's fun playing with other

people's money, you know.

I'm impressed.

A car. Mr. Cool C.

The car's me uncle's.

Tracy.

How you're going?

I'm good. What are you doing?

Now?

Yes.

Nothing.

Do you...

Do you wanna meet up?

Yeah, we could meet on

the corner, you know.

I don't have a car.

I can, I can pick you up.

At 7:
00?

I'll take you to the city.
