0:00:56 > 0:00:59'wetting the bed till he's 110.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02'Sarge is afraid of running out of rhymes.'
0:01:02 > 0:01:05His words were bitter, just like lemon
0:01:05 > 0:01:10He spat them out and cried to...to...
0:01:12 > 0:01:15'Mum is afraid that everyone will look at her bum
0:01:15 > 0:01:17'and think it's too big.
0:01:18 > 0:01:21'Me? My fears aren't that weird.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25'I'm afraid of getting beaten up by big hairy bogans, like Curtis.'
0:01:25 > 0:01:27Hope you've said your prayers, Leonard.
0:01:27 > 0:01:32Does anyone know why I'm here? Or how this all started?
0:01:32 > 0:01:37Or why Curtis is as angry as a bee in a brown paper bag?
0:01:37 > 0:01:40So did your mum say what was so important?
0:01:40 > 0:01:43She just said I'd to ask you.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45She baked a cake and everything. And mum never cooks.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48I'll come straight over. Lockie, apple or orange?
0:01:48 > 0:01:51WHISPERING: I've lost my voice.
0:01:51 > 0:01:53You should have got out of your wet suit straight away.
0:01:53 > 0:01:56Lockie and Vicki went water-skiing yesterday...
0:01:58 > 0:02:00Aargh!
0:02:00 > 0:02:03..and crashed and burned, and now they're not talking.
0:02:03 > 0:02:04Philip!
0:02:04 > 0:02:07What? You've lost your voice?
0:02:07 > 0:02:10- I was just filling in the gaps. - Have you done your assignment?
0:02:10 > 0:02:12What assignment?
0:02:12 > 0:02:15You have to make a speech in front of the whole class.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18If you could be anyone for a day, who would it be?
0:02:18 > 0:02:22Don't think I like that. What's wrong with being who you are?
0:02:24 > 0:02:26So, you want me to pose for a sculpture?
0:02:26 > 0:02:28I-I know it's late notice,
0:02:28 > 0:02:31but the judging closes tomorrow. Cake?
0:02:35 > 0:02:39'Apart from her bum, Mum was also afraid of hurting anyone's feelings.'
0:02:39 > 0:02:41I'd be honoured to pose for you.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43Oh, great!

0:03:05 > 0:03:07But did you say you were sorry for being an idiot?
0:03:07 > 0:03:10No. Because if you did, everything would be sweet.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12But I was NOT an idiot.
0:03:12 > 0:03:16It doesn't matter. That's just what you have to say.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Hurry up, Vicki, we've got a class to get on with!
0:03:23 > 0:03:26Ha-ha, there's no class in here, Miss Twaddle!
0:03:26 > 0:03:28Right! Heads on desks.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30If you're going to act like children,
0:03:30 > 0:03:33I'll act the grumpy school-teacher.
0:03:33 > 0:03:37'Egg was right. I just need to say it. Tell her I'm an idiot.'
0:03:37 > 0:03:40- HOARSELY: I know you think...- What?
0:03:40 > 0:03:42I'm a...
0:03:42 > 0:03:45All right, let's hope you've used up
0:03:45 > 0:03:48all your silliness for today. Heads up.

0:04:02 > 0:04:06Since when does she hang round bogans like Curtis?
0:04:07 > 0:04:10I thought you said you were gonna apologise for being an idiot.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12HOARSELY: I tried.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15What's that for?
0:04:20 > 0:04:22'If only I'd known
0:04:22 > 0:04:25'these few steps would put me into the face of my fear,
0:04:25 > 0:04:27'maybe I would have had a chat to my feet.'

0:06:49 > 0:06:52You just agreed to fight Curtis tomorrow at four o'clock,
0:06:52 > 0:06:55in the canteen after school. And you better not be late.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57He said all that?
0:06:57 > 0:06:59He specifically said in the canteen after school?
0:06:59 > 0:07:05- MIMICS GUITAR WITH VOICE - In the canteen.
0:07:05 > 0:07:07After school.
0:07:09 > 0:07:10There is another option.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13You can tell Mum and Sarge and then they'd stop it.
0:07:13 > 0:07:14HOARSELY: No way.
0:07:14 > 0:07:18And if you tell them, I'll be using your head for practice, alright?

0:08:32 > 0:08:35You are a bit hot.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38D'you think you should stay home?
0:08:38 > 0:08:40I-I dunno, Mum.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43It's OK to be scared, Lockie.
0:08:45 > 0:08:47I know you don't like making speeches.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53Sometimes, they say, it's better to face your fear.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Yeah, I know.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58Hmm - always sounded like a load of tripe to me, too.
0:08:58 > 0:09:03And you know what? I will support you if you want to stay at home.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06I think it's a silly assignment, anyway.
0:09:06 > 0:09:07Well, that's it, then.
0:09:07 > 0:09:10We're both staying at home.
0:09:10 > 0:09:16Hmm. Won't be able to pose for Mrs Eggleston's sculpture now. Shame.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22- So, Leonard chickened out! - CROWS LIKE A CHICKEN
0:09:22 > 0:09:25'Word was out.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28'I was home in bed with a bad case of gutlessness.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30'And it looked like I'd given it to Mum, too.'
0:09:30 > 0:09:33I'm so sorry, but I'm afraid Lockie's home sick
0:09:33 > 0:09:36and I couldn't leave him.
0:09:36 > 0:09:37Yes, you can.
0:09:37 > 0:09:42Really, I don't think...
0:09:42 > 0:09:43I'm going to school.
0:09:44 > 0:09:48Yes, that was him. He seems to have made a recovery.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53Oh, good, OK...
0:09:53 > 0:09:55I'll see you at four.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59You gotta face the fear, Mum.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04And that's why I'd be Oprah Winfrey's dog.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07SLOW CLAPPING
0:10:10 > 0:10:11I had a late note.
0:10:11 > 0:10:12- Gave it to Mr Flint.- Good-o.
0:10:16 > 0:10:20Staying home was the smartest thing you've done all day.
0:10:20 > 0:10:23And now you've stuffed that up, too.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25I know about the fight.
0:10:25 > 0:10:28- I'm gonna stop it.- Vicki, you're required at the Principal's office.
0:10:28 > 0:10:30Your father's waiting to see you.
0:10:30 > 0:10:34- My dad's not meant to be home till tomorrow.- Immediately, please!
0:10:34 > 0:10:38And Vicki, I think you'd better take your bag.
0:10:39 > 0:10:43Mr Leonard, just enough time for you to do your assignment.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48Who would you rather be?
0:10:51 > 0:10:53LOCKIE CLEARS HIS THROAT
0:10:53 > 0:10:57In choosing someone, there were many things I wanted to have.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00Like, characteristics.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02But I couldn't work out who had them all.
0:11:06 > 0:11:10First off, I tried to think of someone who was fearless.
0:11:10 > 0:11:12But Mum said some fears are healthy,
0:11:12 > 0:11:15otherwise we'd all go around picking up spiders.
0:11:15 > 0:11:20Then, I thought, maybe it'd be better if I was someone who's brave.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22CROWD: Fight! Fight! Fight!
0:11:22 > 0:11:24Brave people still get scared.
0:11:24 > 0:11:28Like Sarge, sometimes he has to do scary stuff,
0:11:28 > 0:11:30but he does it anyway.
0:11:30 > 0:11:32Cos he knows it's the right thing to do.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34Fight! Fight! Fight!
0:11:39 > 0:11:41Hope you've said your prayers, Leonard.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49And maybe that's the key -
0:11:49 > 0:11:52knowing what's worth doing and what's not.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57And the brave bit is not caring if anyone thinks you're a coward.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01BELL RINGS
0:12:01 > 0:12:03And that's what I was going to tell Curtis...
0:12:03 > 0:12:05if he'd only given me a chance.
0:12:11 > 0:12:14I can't show you exactly what happened.
0:12:14 > 0:12:15Can't stomach it again.
0:12:15 > 0:12:17But this is it in interpretive dance.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19On skates.
0:12:22 > 0:12:25I will be played by Sarge cos he's brave.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28CROWD CHEERS
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Curtis will be played by himself
0:12:30 > 0:12:31cos he's a bogan.
0:13:37 > 0:13:39How many bee stings?
0:13:39 > 0:13:43Three, four, five?
0:13:44 > 0:13:46OK, we're done here.
0:13:48 > 0:13:49Does it look bad?
0:13:55 > 0:13:58What are you going to tell Sarge?
0:13:58 > 0:13:59It was an accident.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02We were playing handball and I was running backwards.
0:14:02 > 0:14:05I just don't understand why there were bees at school.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07They used to be part of the biology course,
0:14:07 > 0:14:09until Lockie crashed into them.
0:14:09 > 0:14:13Stop eating all those jubes, Philip, you'll be sick.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15TELEPHONE RINGS
0:14:15 > 0:14:17Get that would you, please, Philip?
0:14:19 > 0:14:21- DOORBELL TUNE PLAYS - That'll be Wingnut.
0:14:27 > 0:14:28So, how did it go?
0:14:28 > 0:14:30How did what go?
0:14:30 > 0:14:31The assignment.
0:14:31 > 0:14:35You made the speech, even though you were just a little bit fearful.
0:14:35 > 0:14:36It was all right.
0:14:36 > 0:14:39But it was good to do it, wasn't it? Just to get out there.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42You know, not hiding at home, just doing it.
0:14:42 > 0:14:44Yeah, it was great.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Oh, you don't seem very happy about it.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49These bee stings are sort of distracting me
0:14:49 > 0:14:50from my happiness, Mum.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54I just want to go for a surf and forget today ever happened.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56Vicki's on the phone.
0:14:58 > 0:14:59What?!
0:15:05 > 0:15:08- Hello?- I'm not even supposed to be using the phone.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11I just had to make sure that...
0:15:11 > 0:15:13FOOTSTEPS
0:15:13 > 0:15:15'..that you were OK.'
0:15:17 > 0:15:20'Yeah. Terrible accident, really.'
0:15:20 > 0:15:22Well, I'm grounded, in case you care.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25- How come?- Because of what Curtis' mate did to Dad's table.
0:15:25 > 0:15:28They shouldn't have been here while Mum and Dad were away.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31- Oh, good-o.- I'm gonna go.
0:15:31 > 0:15:32Well...
0:15:34 > 0:15:35'OK.'
0:15:58 > 0:16:00Sometimes you just need to get away,
0:16:00 > 0:16:03where there's just the sun, the sand, the surf
0:16:03 > 0:16:06and no-one to mess with your head.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10Until some noodle tells you Curtis reckons
0:16:10 > 0:16:12he's going to beat you up every day till Christmas.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14Not great news.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18Almost as scary as the jumble in my head about Vicki.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22You can't hide in bed all day. Get up.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24You've got penance to pay.
0:16:29 > 0:16:33What did I do in my sleep last night to get me into trouble with Sarge?
0:16:37 > 0:16:39Did you tell them about the fight?
0:16:39 > 0:16:43Only the bit about Curtis beating you up every day until Christmas.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47PHILIP LAUGHS
0:16:48 > 0:16:49Lockie!

0:17:17 > 0:17:18That, that, that's great.
0:17:18 > 0:17:21- That's great, isn't it? - No, Sarge, I'm in the nude!
0:17:21 > 0:17:25With my big, back veranda exposed for everyone to look at.
0:17:26 > 0:17:27Well, there is that.
0:17:27 > 0:17:29BANGING
0:17:29 > 0:17:32Oh, I forgot. I've got Curtis in the back of the paddy wagon.
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Curtis is here?
0:17:34 > 0:17:36'Sarge never comes at things head on.
0:17:36 > 0:17:39'He likes to sneak up on problems.
0:17:39 > 0:17:41'Give them a touch of showbiz.'
0:17:41 > 0:17:43Right. Two coats ought to do it.
0:17:44 > 0:17:45Oh, nearly forgot.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47Here are your brushes.
0:17:48 > 0:17:49Are you for real?
0:17:56 > 0:17:58Am I prone to making jokes, Lochlan?
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Never made a joke in your life.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02Never made a joke in your life, who?
0:18:02 > 0:18:05Sir! Never made a joke in your life, sir!
0:18:10 > 0:18:12Now, I don't know about you, Curtis...
0:18:14 > 0:18:15but I know Lochlan!
0:18:15 > 0:18:18So I'm assuming he started this.
0:18:20 > 0:18:23But you could've turned the other cheek.
0:18:24 > 0:18:29Now, Monday morning, if you two are thinking of moving in to round two,
0:18:29 > 0:18:32oh, you'll be back in here Monday night.
0:18:40 > 0:18:44Nice one, Sarge. There's one problem with the plan though.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46He can see through the bars.
0:18:46 > 0:18:49Curtis is going to see that I'm not painting.
0:18:49 > 0:18:50No, he won't.
0:18:55 > 0:18:59I'm not going to use the word "disappointed".
0:18:59 > 0:19:03There are very few reasons in this life to raise your fists, Lockie,
0:19:03 > 0:19:05and Curtis is not one of them.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13You almost had the right idea by staying at home.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15Yeah. That's what Vicki said.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17Smart girl, that.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20Complicated but smart.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24She phoned again, by the way.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28Maybe you'd like to go round...
0:19:28 > 0:19:30once you've finished painting.
0:19:35 > 0:19:36'Pssst! Vicki!'
0:19:40 > 0:19:43I have to make sure every shrub is the exact same height.
0:19:43 > 0:19:44To the millimetre.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50Umm...quick! Get in the recycle bin.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52- What?- Oh, they never use it. It's just for show.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03That section's a little bit higher than the rest, kitten.
0:20:09 > 0:20:10He doesn't get it, does he?
0:20:10 > 0:20:11Get what?
0:20:11 > 0:20:13It's weird to go away and leave you.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16I don't know if you can talk about being weird.
0:20:16 > 0:20:19Well, some bogan got all hot and sweaty over my girlfriend
0:20:19 > 0:20:21and then decided to beat my head in.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23Is that what I am? Your girlfriend?
0:20:24 > 0:20:25I don't know.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29Mostly, you're my confusion.
0:20:29 > 0:20:31I just get sick of being good all the time.
0:20:31 > 0:20:35I'm confused already. I thought we were talking about the Curtis thing?
0:20:35 > 0:20:38Yeah, I am. I knew they would chuck a fit if I invited him over.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40But they weren't here.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42Maybe I wanted you to chuck a fit too.
0:20:42 > 0:20:46I said stuff like I loved you and you didn't say it back.
0:20:46 > 0:20:49Yeah, but you say that you love heaps of stuff, Vicki.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52You love fishing, you love falling asleep in front of the telly,
0:20:52 > 0:20:53you love nachos.
0:20:53 > 0:20:55You're just being thick now.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58'But I wasn't. I'm just not as complicated as Vicki.
0:20:58 > 0:21:00'All this whole love thing.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02'I realised what makes stuff scary.
0:21:02 > 0:21:05'It's when you don't know what's going to happen.'
0:21:05 > 0:21:09- Do you think you'll ever say it? - I don't even know what it means yet.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16Does this... Does this mean we can still hang out, or not?
0:21:24 > 0:21:27All right, folks, it's showtime!
0:21:27 > 0:21:29The winner of the sculpture prize,
0:21:29 > 0:21:33with her very naturalistic piece entitled Mum,
0:21:33 > 0:21:35Mrs Florence Eggleston.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38Yeah, Mum!
0:21:42 > 0:21:44Kiss. HE LAUGHS
0:21:44 > 0:21:46OK...let's see it.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55APPLAUSE
0:21:56 > 0:22:00Ahh... Oh, it's inspirational, love.
0:22:01 > 0:22:05It's around the wrong way! Come on! I thought I said bum to the wall!
0:22:05 > 0:22:08Oh...I almost forgot.
0:22:08 > 0:22:10I made you a card.
0:22:10 > 0:22:13- Oh...- "Mum...
0:22:13 > 0:22:16"we love your bum."
0:22:23 > 0:22:25And we do.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30Quick, come on, quick, quick, quick! >
0:22:32 > 0:22:34Oh-ho-ho, look at that!
0:22:34 > 0:22:38I just don't think I'm happy with EVERY Tom, Dick and Harry
0:22:38 > 0:22:41staring at my...back veranda.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45You've gotta face the fear, Mum. Face the fear.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59# Boy, it's breaking
0:22:59 > 0:23:03# Underneath the wave of strength
0:23:03 > 0:23:05# Hey, hey, hey
0:23:06 > 0:23:08# Hey, hey, hey
0:23:08 > 0:23:11# Worlds away from anyone
0:23:11 > 0:23:14# They were burning themselves out in the sun
0:23:14 > 0:23:20# There was just enough to kick the ball away. #
