First of all, we've identified the killer's

car as being a dark Hyundai hatchback.

But what's the first rule of Lorimer?

Do not assume anything. Right.

The second one is why

these gentlemen are here.

Catch the restaurant

bandits, we catch our killers.

Your time starts now.

? I'm a snake charmer. Baby

Tin whistle in my hand...

Police! Don't move!

Get down on the ground now!

? Said I'm a snake charmer. Darling

Tin whistle in my hand...

D*ckheads!

Don't move! Down on the floor!

Oh, you didn't do it, huh? Hey?

What did you do?

I'll tell you what you can f***ing do!

Two f***ing mates went out

there and they're f***ing dead!

Yeah!

So nobody knows who these pricks are.

Someone does.

Wife, girlfriend, fence.

We've shut down every crook in Melbourne.

Well, all they've gotta do is

give us a name and we'll back off.

And how can they give them up if

they don't know who the hell they are?

Huh?

I'm taking you back to the

night of Saturday the 15th.

So you're parked outside BBC Hardware

and you're watching the

restaurant across the road.

Can you see its name? The Silky Emperor.

Can you remember the

car's numberplate, Frank?

At first, we thought it was

the same Honda back again.

But it was a different car.

How tall would you say he was?

About 170 centimetres.

Shoulder-length dark hair.

There's stubbly growth.

Six foot.

Check shirt.

Yeah.

Hmm.

Now, Gary was shot three times.

First shot to the chest.

Second shot to the pelvis,

smashing a vertebrae.

Third shot to the skull...

...was fatal.

The second and third round

was from a different gun.

Two shooters?

Or one man with two guns.

Rod was shot once.

The bullet entered his

body under his left armpit

and exited at his right hip.

Explain the trajectory.

Well, the theory is Rod was

at the back of the Hyundai.

He had the gunman inside the car

shooting over the top of the front seat

through the rear window.

First shot smashes the glass.

Rod ducks down.

Second shot...

...hits him.

Anything helpful with the bullets?

No. They're twisted out of shape from

impacting on bone. They're useless.

However, Rod did return four shots,

but we've only recovered three,

so I figure the final round might've

lodged in the Hyundai's bodywork.

Too much to hope it

lodged in someone's skull.

It's definitely Korean manufacture.

The Japs use a thicker

glass and generally tint it.

So it's probably a Hyundai

Excel, either 3- or 5-door.

That's great work, Mick. Thanks.

And how many out there? About

35,000 registered in Australia.

Wouldn't you be wise to add

more experience to the team?

It's all about fresh thinking.

Yeah, well, some of them

look like schoolkids, Paul.
