Yes, but nobody knows us here.

Brownie.

Hang on a minute.

Just wait for that copper.

OK. Off you go.

Good luck, son.

Why don't you go to the police?

Yeah. Thanks anyhow.

I don't even know

if she's still here.

It's a big city.

She's pregnant.

You ought to be with her.

I know that.

I've got no job,

I've got no money.

I was coming to that.

Someone signed off today.

Job's yours if you want it.

Really?

That would be great, but...

I don't know.

It's over to you, son.

If you still want to be a sailor,

we ship out Friday.

Friday.

I'm just going downstairs

for a while. Won't be long.

I won't do it!

I'm going to keep it.

Brownie, where are you?

Damn!

Hey!

Hey, cab!

Stop!

The docks, please.

Got the money?

Cash?

Yes!

It's all over now, darling.

No luck, eh?

Only woman you can rely on is the sea.

She'll always be there.

Come on. Sit yourself down.

What kind of music

do you like, Brownie?

There's stuff here

from all over the world.

Damascus, San Francisco, London...

I've never seen this.

Here - you might go for this one.

My baby don't stand

no foolin' around...

Here - get this into you.

Oh, yeah, she don't stand

no foolin', my babe...

Don't worry, son.

You'll acquire the taste.

Ain't no foolin' my babe

Truly, baby, my babe

She's my baby...

Where do you think you're going?

I know what you're

going through, darling.

Look, we'll start again.

We'll put it all behind us.

He's forgotten you, love.

You're not the first one

to go through this, you know.

I know it's hard.

How do you know?

I just know.

When I was your age, I made

some mistakes. But life goes on.

Am I one of your mistakes?

Am I?

No!

You're my daughter and I love you.

He's trying to find me. I know he is.

You never even gave him a chance. Don't

make a mess of your life.

Forget him.

Men are all the same.

You're the one to give advice about men.

Goodbye, Mum.

I'll write so that you know I'm alright.

Lola...

I'm from Bundaberg.

I'm looking for work.

Why come to Melbourne?

My mum's in Brisbane.

Rent's $30 a week, two weeks

in advance, extra for gas and electricity.

Your life's your own business

but if you break the law, I'll call the cops.

Give a reason

to all mankind

Understanding

And peace of mind

But if it's not asking too much

Please give me somebody to love

Somebody to love

Show the world how

To get along

Peace will enter

Where hate has gone

But if it's not asking too much

Please send me somebody to love

Please send

me somebody to love.

Apple pie, mixed grill, no onions.

And more cups and saucers!

Come on! Get the tables!

I've got to get home tonight!

Can I have that candle?

What's that you're doing?
