0:00:02 > 0:00:04If we don't exist, we don't have to follow any boring rules.
0:00:04 > 0:00:06We can do anything we want.
0:00:06 > 0:00:08Whoa. Lucky we don't exist.
0:00:08 > 0:00:10I'll be here all day.
0:00:10 > 0:00:12There was a break and enter at Bremin High last weekend.
0:00:12 > 0:00:14- You know anything about that? - No.
0:00:14 > 0:00:16That cop. He's my dad.
0:00:16 > 0:00:19Our non-existence has changed this world.
0:00:19 > 0:00:22In the old world, your mother was single and your father was a loser.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25So, by being born, I ruined both my parents' lives, yeah?
0:00:25 > 0:00:26Hey!
0:00:28 > 0:00:32You were with the guy from the bus. He saved my life.
0:00:32 > 0:00:36This is very special. It can protect against elemental attacks.
0:00:36 > 0:00:39There's a swarm of killer alien bees right outside that door.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42The Divinity of the Elements, I invoke Thee.
0:01:40 > 0:01:46Tonight, cher Gary, I offer you des haricots baked.
0:01:49 > 0:01:50- How's your mum? - She's fine.
0:01:50 > 0:01:53Anyone else, you know, on the scene?
0:01:56 > 0:01:58How're you going to cook when they cut your gas off?
0:01:58 > 0:02:05Mate, the thing you gotta learn is every obstacle is an opportunity.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07DOORBELL RINGS
0:02:07 > 0:02:08That'll be Mum.
0:02:17 > 0:02:19Come in.
0:02:20 > 0:02:24I am working ten-hour shifts just to cover the rent.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26And his feet are growing so fast,
0:02:26 > 0:02:28I've got to buy him runners every four months.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30You want to stay for tea?
0:02:30 > 0:02:32Gary, I know there's a yeast content in beer,
0:02:32 > 0:02:34but I wouldn't exactly call it food.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37Come on. It's all very a la carte here.
0:02:37 > 0:02:41I can offer you baked beans with salt or baked beans without.
0:02:41 > 0:02:43I just need you to pay your share, OK?
0:02:43 > 0:02:45Jake, come on.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47Yeah, well I've got a couple of irons in the fire.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49Well, you'd better take 'em out before the house burns down.
0:02:53 > 0:02:55- See ya, Dad. - Yeah, see you, mate.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00You want to get some takeaway on the way home?
0:03:03 > 0:03:05POLICE RADIO CHATTER
0:03:07 > 0:03:09Get down. It's the cops.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30You were right.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32By being born, I wrecked my parents' lives.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34I didn't put it like that exactly,
0:03:34 > 0:03:37and anyway, change isn't necessarily better.
0:03:37 > 0:03:39- Really?- Well...
0:03:39 > 0:03:41Cops have notorious cholesterol and hypertension issues.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43And in a survey I read,
0:03:43 > 0:03:46real estate agents rated below telemarketers in trustworthiness.
0:03:48 > 0:03:49OK, all clear.
0:03:56 > 0:04:00I can't believe it's come to this. Other people's rubbish?
0:04:00 > 0:04:02You've been a great help, Sam. Really, don't put yourself out.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05Dude, if you want a whole heap of useless junk, that's your business.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08This isn't junk. Did you know that in this country,
0:04:08 > 0:04:12we throw out more than 5 billion worth of stuff every year?
0:04:12 > 0:04:14Better to re-use what we've already got.
0:04:14 > 0:04:16It's a philosophy called Freeganism.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19Freegan, huh? That's pretty cool.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22Oh, you just made that word up.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24- What are you eating? - Nothing.
0:04:34 > 0:04:38I don't know if the gas is going to work, but here's hoping.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40- Turn it, doofus. - Oh.
0:04:40 > 0:04:44Who's up for a home cooked meal? I do a pretty mean BLT.
0:04:44 > 0:04:46Small problem - we don't have food.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48- Well, we'll go shopping. - With what?
0:04:48 > 0:04:51- Your money should get us some basics.- What money?
0:04:51 > 0:04:53The money you earned from skate busking.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56Ah... Low blood sugar - needed chocolate.
0:04:56 > 0:04:59- You spent it, didn't you? - It was only a couple of bucks.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01Selfish fool.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05Well, I guess we're Freegans, then. So who's coming shopping? Not you.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08I'll come. Although Freegans don't actually shop.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10- Look, you coming or not? - Yeah.
0:05:10 > 0:05:11Great.
0:05:16 > 0:05:20- I was going to share. I was just so hun...- We're all hungry, Sam.
0:05:24 > 0:05:28You know there's not a lot of edible material in hard rubbish?
0:05:28 > 0:05:30We're not going back there.
0:05:30 > 0:05:33We're not? But Freegans don't have a lot of choice about where they shop.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35We don't have a lot of choice because a loser,
0:05:35 > 0:05:38otherwise known as Sam, ate our only chance of a decent meal.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41Yeah... Bad form.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44And to think that in the old world, you two were good friends.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47Yeah, well, in the old world I had a mum, a dad,
0:05:47 > 0:05:51a comfortable bed, access to a fridge full of food...
0:05:51 > 0:05:53Things change.
0:06:15 > 0:06:18The definition of Freeganism is taking the discarded,
0:06:18 > 0:06:21not stealing before it gets discarded.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24Fine, then. Jump back in the dumpster.
0:06:24 > 0:06:28Well, I guess we shouldn't get too hung up with technicalities.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Get back to work.
0:07:34 > 0:07:35Sergeant Riles.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41Taking free samples is technically within the philosophy of Freeganism.
0:07:41 > 0:07:43Hi.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45Hi?
0:07:45 > 0:07:47That side doesn't have a security camera.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51Interesting fact. Not sure why you think that would be relevant to me.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53- You're new in town. - Am I?
0:07:53 > 0:07:57- Hmm, mysterious. - Yes, I am.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02Well, I'm Ellen.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10Andy! When I say run, we've gotta run, OK?
0:08:10 > 0:08:12OK.
0:08:12 > 0:08:13Been nice chatting to you but I've got to...
0:08:13 > 0:08:14Run!
0:08:15 > 0:08:18Hey, you! Get back here!
0:08:18 > 0:08:20Cop chase. Cool.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23Stop! Police!
0:08:24 > 0:08:26Stop!
0:08:33 > 0:08:35Stop! Police!
0:08:41 > 0:08:43- Jake, this way! - You go. I got this.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51What's your name?
0:08:51 > 0:08:53- Jake. - Jake who?
0:08:53 > 0:08:54Just Jake.
0:08:54 > 0:08:58Well, Just Jake, you're coming with me. Let's go, come on.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03"Air, Fire, Earth, Water.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07"One alone can no change make.
0:09:10 > 0:09:14- "But if the Elements all awake..." - Lovely afternoon.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17Why are you following me? You know how creepy that is?
0:09:17 > 0:09:20I see you survived the attack of the killer bees.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Yeah, thanks.
0:09:22 > 0:09:26- Did you use magic? - Well, we did have insect spray.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30You said you were the real thing, Felix.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33You're not going to disappoint me, are you?
0:09:33 > 0:09:38Yeah, I think I'm the real deal. I mean, I could be. Theoretically.
0:09:38 > 0:09:42- So how's my talisman going? - Good. Except it doesn't work.
0:09:42 > 0:09:43- Sure about that? - Yeah.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46- Oh, well, it was worth a try. - That's cool. I'll keep it.
0:09:46 > 0:09:50- Not much point, if it doesn't work. - I can keep trying.
0:09:51 > 0:09:53I've got my eye on you.
0:10:06 > 0:10:07Turn left.
0:10:09 > 0:10:12Right, let's go. Get on with it.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15Address?
0:10:17 > 0:10:18Phone number?
0:10:20 > 0:10:22Parents' names?
0:10:24 > 0:10:25I can sit here all day if I have to,
0:10:25 > 0:10:27so you might as well cut to the chase and tell me
0:10:27 > 0:10:29who your parents are.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32- They're probably worried sick. - You think so?
0:10:34 > 0:10:35So how's this sound for a deal?
0:10:35 > 0:10:37You tell me who your parents are
0:10:37 > 0:10:38and we'll drop these shoplifting charges.
0:10:38 > 0:10:42- I don't know who they are.- You really expect me to believe that?
0:10:42 > 0:10:45I don't care what you believe! I don't know who they are
0:10:45 > 0:10:47and I couldn't contact them even if I wanted to.
0:10:47 > 0:10:49Well, unless you remember who they are,
0:10:49 > 0:10:50I'm not going to be able to release you,
0:10:50 > 0:10:54so we'll be staying here for as long as it takes.
0:10:54 > 0:10:56Well, fine, I'll stay here with you.
0:11:08 > 0:11:11'We're all hungry, Sam.'
0:11:20 > 0:11:25So, Jake, know anything about a break-in at Bremin High School?
0:11:25 > 0:11:26No.
0:11:43 > 0:11:44Gotcha.
0:11:59 > 0:12:02CROWS CAW
0:12:06 > 0:12:07Hey, fellas.
0:12:09 > 0:12:12Very unnerving, but nothing to panic about.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21RUN!
0:12:24 > 0:12:26This is the kid you were with, isn't it?
0:12:30 > 0:12:32I'm going to give you a bit of advice, mate.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35If you don't tell me who you are and who this other kid is,
0:12:35 > 0:12:37then there's going to be dire consequences.
0:12:37 > 0:12:39Whoa, now you're scaring me.
0:12:39 > 0:12:41It's not going to be funny in ten years' time,
0:12:41 > 0:12:43when you're in no hope, with no money, no job.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Yeah, my mum used to say the same thing about my dad.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47How did he end up?
0:12:47 > 0:12:49A loser. Well, he was a loser.
0:12:49 > 0:12:53He's doing much better now, by the looks of things.
0:12:53 > 0:12:56CROWS CAW
0:12:59 > 0:13:01I think they got Jake.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04- The crows? - No, the cops.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07Divinity of the Elements, I summon Thee.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09- Is a poem the right response? - We have to get him back.
0:13:09 > 0:13:11He's probably loving it - bed for the night, free food.
0:13:11 > 0:13:12How bad could it be?
0:13:12 > 0:13:13We have to rescue him.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15The talisman won't work if we're not all together.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17Oh, here we go. Dark Arts 101...
0:13:17 > 0:13:19- The security camera. - What?
0:13:19 > 0:13:21At the school, when we broke in. I saw it.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24- Yeah, me too. Me too.- It's got footage of us trashing the gym.
0:13:24 > 0:13:25Oh...
0:13:25 > 0:13:27The cops will have the footage, for sure.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30Jake's been arrested, it won't take them long to find the rest of us.
0:13:30 > 0:13:31So what do we do?
0:13:31 > 0:13:34We have to learn to think outside the box, Sam.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56Did you always want to be a cop?
0:13:56 > 0:14:00Enough with the questions. You don't answer mine, I don't answer yours.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08Yeah, coming up zero here.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11Can you give them a call?
0:14:12 > 0:14:16Yeah, I know, mate, but I've got no other options.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22So even when you were a kid, you knew that's what you wanted to do?
0:14:22 > 0:14:25I don't know about that, mate, but definitely once I finished school.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28- And then something got in your way. - Nothing got in my way.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30I had a dream and I made it happen.
0:14:34 > 0:14:35Yeah, see ya, mate.
0:14:37 > 0:14:38Right.
0:14:38 > 0:14:40You ever considered a career in the Force?
0:14:40 > 0:14:44- No.- Don't discount it. It could turn your life around.
0:14:44 > 0:14:47As a kid, I had a few issues on the home front too.
0:14:47 > 0:14:51But you know what? Out of every obstacle, comes opportunity.
0:14:51 > 0:14:53What the Force gives you is purpose.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56They're not just your work, they're your family as well.
0:14:56 > 0:15:01- So you're not married? - "Married to the job", as they say.
0:15:01 > 0:15:06With the hours I work, it's the best I can do to look after a dog.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09Zeus. He comes to every game.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11Come on, The Bandies.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16CROWS CAW OUTSIDE
0:15:16 > 0:15:18This is a very powerful magnet.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21Exposing the security footage to an alternative magnetic field
0:15:21 > 0:15:23will remove all data.
0:15:23 > 0:15:25That's pretty anti-establishment of you, Andy.
0:15:25 > 0:15:26We'll make a Goth of you yet.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29Yeah, that's great but how are we going to get into the police station
0:15:29 > 0:15:31so we can erase all the footage?
0:15:34 > 0:15:36- Maybe I can help. - Creepy...
0:15:36 > 0:15:37What are you doing here?
0:15:37 > 0:15:40You need an adult to help get you into the police station.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42We still have to get past the crows.
0:15:43 > 0:15:47- Dude, we found a stove, not a microwave.- It's not for us.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58One, two, three.
0:16:01 > 0:16:03Now!
0:16:11 > 0:16:14- What do you run a hundred in? - I've done a hundred in 12.3.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17That's pretty good, mate. I struggle to do below 13.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19Really? You outran me before.
0:16:19 > 0:16:22You had bacon down your pants. It's a pretty severe handicap.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26- You hungry? - Yeah, starving.
0:16:26 > 0:16:28- I've got another can out the back. - Make it two?
0:16:29 > 0:16:33- Sergeant Gary Riles.- Janet Hawker. Child Protection Services.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38I'll just get the beans.
0:16:54 > 0:16:59What you need to understand, Jake, is that this here is a safe space.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01Do you understand that?
0:17:01 > 0:17:07So, why don't you start at the beginning and tell me the truth.
0:17:08 > 0:17:10- You want the truth? - I do.
0:17:10 > 0:17:13- The whole truth? - Absolutely.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20OK, then.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23There was this school excursion into the forest.
0:17:28 > 0:17:32- So why is Creepy Lady helping us? - I don't know.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35- Maybe she likes us? - Well, I am pretty irresistible.
0:17:35 > 0:17:38- Get a move on, airhead. - I think she's resisting you.
0:17:38 > 0:17:42So, Phoebe, what's the plan? How are you going to get us inside?
0:17:42 > 0:17:46The plan is, I talk, you say nothing. Want to practise?
0:17:46 > 0:17:49- What exactly are you going to say? - I talk, you say nothing.
0:17:49 > 0:17:51- How hard is that? - But I can...
0:17:51 > 0:17:53I talk. You say nothing.
0:17:53 > 0:17:57- She really is weird. - I heard that!
0:17:57 > 0:17:59Look. The crows are back.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02CROWS CAW
0:18:04 > 0:18:08So what we have here is a classic case of delusional disorder.
0:18:08 > 0:18:12It often stems from an inability to accept a difficult home life.
0:18:13 > 0:18:15Which is why he won't say who his parents are?
0:18:15 > 0:18:18In cases like this, it's very common
0:18:18 > 0:18:21to replace reality with a fantastical alternative.
0:18:21 > 0:18:25Mind you, I'm not sure I've ever heard one this fantastical.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29So if you could keep trying to contact his family,
0:18:29 > 0:18:33and I will get him settled into a supported care facility.
0:18:33 > 0:18:35Are you sure that's necessary?
0:18:35 > 0:18:38Sergeant Riles, this boy needs to be monitored by professionals.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40Yes, of course.
0:18:41 > 0:18:44CROWS CAW
0:18:46 > 0:18:47Get in!
0:18:55 > 0:18:58- What is it with these creepy crows? - Another attack?
0:18:58 > 0:19:00Obviously.
0:19:00 > 0:19:01- Haven't worked it out yet? - No.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03BANG What was that?
0:19:03 > 0:19:04Kamikaze crows!
0:19:04 > 0:19:06What will happen if we can't get to Jake in time?
0:19:06 > 0:19:08- He'll be fostered out, probably. - We can't let that happen.
0:19:08 > 0:19:12- He's our friend. - Oh, I feel touched.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14- By nausea. - Will you just hurry up?
0:19:30 > 0:19:34Listen, mate, I'm sorry, but you gave me no choice.
0:19:34 > 0:19:36You may have been a no-hoper,
0:19:36 > 0:19:40but one thing my dad would never do is betray me.
0:19:40 > 0:19:41What's that about?
0:19:44 > 0:19:46Phoebe.
0:19:46 > 0:19:50And three boys, one of whom's already contravened the law
0:19:50 > 0:19:52and another, who looks familiar.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55I thought I told you to unstack the dishwasher.
0:19:55 > 0:19:57- Huh? - You know each other?
0:19:57 > 0:19:59- Oh, yeah, she's my... - Auntie.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02Oh, yep, right.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04They're all cousins.
0:20:04 > 0:20:08Well, he's a... Step-cousin.
0:20:08 > 0:20:10All right, boys, let's go. Who's on dinner duty?
0:20:10 > 0:20:14Yeah, nice try, Phoebe, but they're not going anywhere. Inside. Now.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17CROWS CAW
0:20:20 > 0:20:22- Whoa... - Move it.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32Righto, I'm sure you'll all be relieved to know
0:20:32 > 0:20:34that the mystery of the school... CROWS CAW OUTSIDE
0:20:34 > 0:20:38..break-in has finally been solved.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50Divinity of the Elements, I summon Thee.
0:20:52 > 0:20:57Earth, Water, Air, Fire, I invoke Thee.
0:21:00 > 0:21:02Must be an electrical fault.
0:21:16 > 0:21:18You saw it. It was him.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20- I don't know what you're talking about.- On the tape.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23- I showed it to you. Tell them. - Maybe it was a delusion.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29Oh, don't worry. Janet says it's a perfectly treatable disorder.
0:21:33 > 0:21:36Hey! You can't just take them like that.
0:21:36 > 0:21:38Why not, Sergeant? You've got nothing to charge them with.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41Yeah, well, maybe not for the school break-in,
0:21:41 > 0:21:43but there are other charges related to shoplifting.
0:21:43 > 0:21:44Mm-hmm.
0:21:46 > 0:21:47Charge away.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52Never mind.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56Where the hell is Sam?
0:21:59 > 0:22:01You saved me, so the least I could do is save you.
0:22:01 > 0:22:03Thanks, Andy.
0:22:03 > 0:22:04Interesting, isn't it?
0:22:04 > 0:22:07I thought security footage would all be digital these days,
0:22:07 > 0:22:10so a magnet like that wouldn't have any effect.
0:22:12 > 0:22:16Well, my nephews, how about you come have dinner at my place?
0:22:16 > 0:22:18That's cool, but Jake's cooking so...
0:22:20 > 0:22:22It's not happening, OK?
0:22:23 > 0:22:26Hang on, are we missing someone?
0:22:26 > 0:22:29Hey, you! That's confiscated!
0:22:37 > 0:22:41Here's to Andy, for saving our butts.
0:22:41 > 0:22:44And to Felix for knocking back our first home-cooked meal.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48Did some more skate busking.
0:22:48 > 0:22:49THEY CHEER
0:22:49 > 0:22:51- Yeah!- Yeah!
0:23:06 > 0:23:08Man, this is the best BLT I've ever eaten.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11Even without the B. Or the L.
0:23:11 > 0:23:12Or the T.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21Zeus!
0:23:21 > 0:23:24Here, boy! Come on!
0:23:24 > 0:23:25Zeus!
0:23:26 > 0:23:27Come on!
0:23:29 > 0:23:30Zeus!
0:23:32 > 0:23:34Come on, boy!
0:23:35 > 0:23:36Zeus!
0:23:47 > 0:23:49I still don't get why we have to go to school.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51You want the police off your backs, you go to school.
0:23:51 > 0:23:55- These boys are new to the area... - And we're here for an exchange.
0:23:55 > 0:23:57Different universe, same Sam.
0:23:57 > 0:23:58They're not looking at you, man.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01You saved that girl from the bus!
0:24:01 > 0:24:03Nice shot, mate. This guy's a natural.
0:24:06 > 0:24:08You and Sammy, you're sort of similar.
0:24:08 > 0:24:12STUDENTS CHANT: Fight! Fight! Fight!
0:24:12 > 0:24:14- Brothers, torn apart by a savage war.- Brother?
0:24:14 > 0:24:16Do you want to help after school? Putting up flyers?
0:24:16 > 0:24:19I never realised being popular was so stressful.
0:24:19 > 0:24:22Being unpopular sucks, too.
0:24:22 > 0:24:23GROWLING
0:24:23 > 0:24:25Whatever you do, don't look him in the eye.
0:24:25 > 0:24:26Oh, my God!
0:24:27 > 0:24:29SCREAMING
0:24:29 > 0:24:30It's no use, it's locked!
