0:00:05 > 0:00:09Come and get me, then, coppers! Come on!
0:00:09 > 0:00:10Come and get me!
0:00:10 > 0:00:12- Where's Clive?- Inside.
0:00:12 > 0:00:14I can see you there, coppers.
0:00:14 > 0:00:17I've already shot one of your mates. Now, come and get me!
0:00:17 > 0:00:20- Bill! Bill!- Go on and shoot me! - Jesus.
0:00:20 > 0:00:21Drop the gun!
0:00:21 > 0:00:23Drop it now!
0:00:23 > 0:00:24Drop it!
0:00:26 > 0:00:27Aah!
0:00:32 > 0:00:33Stay here.
0:00:44 > 0:00:45Christ!
0:00:55 > 0:00:57Bill?
0:00:57 > 0:00:58Bill!
0:00:59 > 0:01:00Bill!
0:01:04 > 0:01:05Bill!
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Just shoot me, you mongrels! Go on and shoot!
0:01:09 > 0:01:10Come on!
0:02:30 > 0:02:32Dr Blake to see Sean McBride.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50- Thank you.- Doc.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52- Bill.- They want to hang him in the morning.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55- Oh, I better be quick, then. - His brother's in there now.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57- His brother?- The priest.
0:03:01 > 0:03:02Sister.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05Presented with joint pains and blood in his urine.
0:03:05 > 0:03:07- Temperature of 104. - Father McBride.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09Blood pressure 110 over 60.
0:03:09 > 0:03:12I gave him some aspirin to help with his fever.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15- Aspirin? That's all?- Mm-hm. - Any history of infection?
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Not that I know about.
0:03:18 > 0:03:20Right.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22Let's have a little listen, eh?
0:03:25 > 0:03:26See what's going on.
0:03:28 > 0:03:30It's all right, Sean.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34Rapid heart rate.
0:03:35 > 0:03:36SEAN MUTTERS
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Systolic heart murmur.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45Spots on his palms.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49Splinter haemorrhages under his nails.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51Some blood work, I think, Sister.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54Now, it's all right, Sean.
0:03:56 > 0:03:57Thank you, Sister.
0:04:01 > 0:04:06Oh, there we are. 200 units penicillin IV, thank you.
0:04:08 > 0:04:10The IV might help, Bill.
0:04:10 > 0:04:11Might?
0:04:11 > 0:04:13Until I get a proper diagnosis.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19I...I didn't kill him.
0:04:19 > 0:04:20I didn't do it!
0:04:20 > 0:04:22- Sean? Sean?- I didn't do it!
0:04:22 > 0:04:26Sean, listen to me. It's Xavier. Can you hear me? Sean?
0:04:26 > 0:04:27Let's pray together.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30HE RECITES A PRAYER IN LATIN
0:04:41 > 0:04:44You heard what he said, Bill. He said he was innocent.
0:04:44 > 0:04:45They all say that at some point.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47No-one wants to die, especially not like this.
0:04:47 > 0:04:52Perhaps his level of fever, the conscious mind has already shut down,
0:04:52 > 0:04:54which means he's not capable of lying.
0:04:54 > 0:04:55That's not my business.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Ah, yes. As long as he hangs on time, that's all that matters.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59It doesn't matter what either of us think.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01He's due to hang tomorrow and it's our job to make that happen.
0:05:42 > 0:05:46- Eggs, Daniel? - Oh, thanks, Auntie Jean.
0:05:46 > 0:05:48Well, you need it for the game.
0:05:48 > 0:05:50Been working on your batting?
0:05:50 > 0:05:52Don't need to.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54You keep getting out LBW. It's getting tedious.
0:05:55 > 0:05:56Don't.
0:05:58 > 0:06:00So, how is the great man?
0:06:00 > 0:06:02A lot more mature than some people I know.
0:06:02 > 0:06:03Oh, yes, of course.
0:06:03 > 0:06:06Only mature people write letters to girls about books.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08At least we have something to talk about.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10Well, who's interested in talking?
0:06:10 > 0:06:14- Ooh!- Looks like they're going to have to deny themselves the pleasure
0:06:14 > 0:06:17of killing Sean McBride for at least another day or so.
0:06:18 > 0:06:19What?
0:06:19 > 0:06:22I was at the prison last night. The boy is seriously ill.
0:06:22 > 0:06:23It's just barbaric.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25Oh, what, so it's OK to kill police officers?
0:06:25 > 0:06:27That's not what I said.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Clive was a mate! His wife was pregnant.
0:06:29 > 0:06:30Oh, and that wins the argument, does it?
0:06:30 > 0:06:32Mattie and Daniel, eat your breakfast.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34Sorry, Auntie Jean, I want to hear how Mattie and her boyfriend
0:06:34 > 0:06:37would deal with crooks like McBride.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40Well, the crime rate actually goes up after an execution.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42They solve nothing. Everyone knows that.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44Thank you, Mattie, but not everybody knows or believes that.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47Doc, I was there.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49And you saw McBride kill that man?
0:06:49 > 0:06:51Well, no, after that.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53The bloke wanted to die.
0:06:54 > 0:06:58Well, he's changed his mind, Danny.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00Yeah, well, it's a bit bloody late for that.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10Temperature normal, heartbeat regular.
0:07:10 > 0:07:11Anything more in his medical history?
0:07:11 > 0:07:14He had an abscessed tooth removed about a month ago.
0:07:14 > 0:07:15You didn't mention that when I asked you.
0:07:15 > 0:07:16I didn't think it was important.
0:07:16 > 0:07:19I'm the doctor. I decide what's important.
0:07:19 > 0:07:21Sean, how are you? Dr Blake, I saw you last night.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23Would you mind putting that down?
0:07:23 > 0:07:25Not one for smoking, Doc?
0:07:25 > 0:07:26It will kill you.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31Now, how are you feeling?
0:07:31 > 0:07:33- Better.- Better? Good.
0:07:34 > 0:07:36Now, last night you told me you didn't shoot Clive Cooper.
0:07:39 > 0:07:41- Must've been delirious.- Really?
0:07:43 > 0:07:45Sounded very definite.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48I shot him, Doc, OK?
0:07:48 > 0:07:49End of story.
0:07:52 > 0:07:53- Imotil. 100ml.- Imotil?
0:07:53 > 0:07:55100ml, thank you.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57All done, Sean.
0:07:59 > 0:08:01Endocarditis brought on by a previous infection.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03You'll be glad to know he's on the mend.
0:08:03 > 0:08:04How soon?
0:08:04 > 0:08:07Yes, we wouldn't want to hang a man who was feeling sick, would we, Bill?
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Doctor, Sean seems better this morning.
0:08:16 > 0:08:17Yes, in some respects.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19That's a blessing.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21Has he ever spoken to you about what happened?
0:08:21 > 0:08:23I'm not just his brother, I'm his priest as well.
0:08:23 > 0:08:25Oh, of course he confessed.
0:08:25 > 0:08:29What's said in the confessional is between the supplicant and God.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32Has he ever spoken to you about what happened outside of confession?
0:08:32 > 0:08:34He regrets what happened. We all do.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36Just seems a bit odd, doesn't it?
0:08:36 > 0:08:38Man pleads guilty in court, then says he's innocent.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40Not so odd under the circumstances.
0:08:41 > 0:08:43Must be difficult ministering to your own family, Father.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46Faith offers great consolation, Doctor.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48It sometimes blinds us to the truth.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50Do you believe in God, Doctor?
0:08:52 > 0:08:55I used to believe in a just and merciful God.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57And now?
0:08:57 > 0:08:58Now I'm not so sure.
0:09:03 > 0:09:04Thank you.
0:09:09 > 0:09:13Excuse me, Doctor. Joy McDonald, I'm with the Herald.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15I believe you're the doctor treating Sean McBride.
0:09:15 > 0:09:17I'm a doctor, Joy.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20- Is that no comment? - No comment.
0:09:20 > 0:09:22What can you tell us about his state of mind?
0:09:23 > 0:09:26Should his execution go ahead anyway?
0:09:26 > 0:09:28I'm fixing this man up
0:09:28 > 0:09:30so the state can put a rope around his neck and kill him.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Does that make sense to you?
0:09:33 > 0:09:34Me either.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37- May I quote you?- No comment.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49Ah! Yep!
0:10:02 > 0:10:05- Got a bob on Parks to make 50. - Really.
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Might not take you up on that.
0:10:11 > 0:10:12Suit yourself.
0:10:14 > 0:10:15Saw Sean McBride last night.
0:10:17 > 0:10:18Said he was innocent.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22I would never have picked you for the gullible type, Blake.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24You know I'm not.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26McBride confessed.
0:10:26 > 0:10:30Really? What did he say, exactly?
0:10:30 > 0:10:33He killed Cooper and took a shot at Parks and Hobart.
0:10:33 > 0:10:34That's what he said.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38McBride had a fever of 104.
0:10:38 > 0:10:40So?
0:10:40 > 0:10:43The conscious mind ceases to function at that point.
0:10:45 > 0:10:47That's when he told you he was innocent?
0:10:47 > 0:10:48Yes.
0:10:49 > 0:10:52He was incapable of lying.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55So, whatever McBride did, he didn't believe he was guilty.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01Have you spoken to him this morning?
0:11:01 > 0:11:03- Yes.- What did he say?
0:11:06 > 0:11:07That he shot Cooper.
0:11:10 > 0:11:11Oh, shot!
0:11:33 > 0:11:38Jean, if someone confessed to a crime, then recanted that confession,
0:11:38 > 0:11:40which would you believe?
0:11:41 > 0:11:43It would depend on the situation.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46No, just off the top of your head.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49The recant. Probably means they've had time to think about the truth.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53Or get worried about the consequences.
0:11:53 > 0:11:54You said off the top of my head.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58This is about Sean McBride.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04- Who murdered a policeman. - Apparently.
0:12:04 > 0:12:06You know he had a shot at Danny?
0:12:06 > 0:12:09Maybe you should talk to a few of the young girls
0:12:09 > 0:12:12who he's apparently left to bring up bastard children.
0:12:12 > 0:12:13Thank you, Jean.
0:12:13 > 0:12:15Or Clive's widow.
0:12:18 > 0:12:19It's out of your hands.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38He was pretty drunk. Had a bit of a crack at us.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41- Us?- Me and Harris.
0:12:41 > 0:12:44It's McBride's brother. Not the priest, the other one.
0:12:46 > 0:12:47Oi, wake up.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50- Doctor's here to see you. - I don't need a doctor.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52Shut up.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02Goodness me. What happened here?
0:13:02 > 0:13:04He came at us. We had to protect ourselves.
0:13:04 > 0:13:06My name's Dr Blake. Now...
0:13:06 > 0:13:08let me just have a little look at you.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13Where else are you hurt?
0:13:13 > 0:13:14Everywhere.
0:13:15 > 0:13:19- You got a pill for that? - Good luck with it, Doc.
0:13:22 > 0:13:23Ta.
0:13:28 > 0:13:30Danny.
0:13:30 > 0:13:34I'd like to see the incident report on Clive Cooper's death, please.
0:13:34 > 0:13:35Why?
0:13:35 > 0:13:38Because I'm a police surgeon and I'm asking you for it.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40Don't push this one, Doc. Please.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00Thank you.
0:14:01 > 0:14:02Right.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07- Post-mortem says cause of death was gunshot wound.- Yep.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10There was a second wound caused by a blow to the back of the head
0:14:10 > 0:14:12inflicted before he was shot.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Now, where was that bullet wound, Danny?
0:14:18 > 0:14:22Entered the front of chest. So, Sean,
0:14:22 > 0:14:23apparently pulled a gun.
0:14:23 > 0:14:24No, he took Clive's.
0:14:25 > 0:14:29Neighbours report hearing a gunshot around 6.20.
0:14:29 > 0:14:31- You and Harris arrived around... - 6.30.
0:14:31 > 0:14:32Yeah, 6.30.
0:14:34 > 0:14:36Why was Cooper there in the first place?
0:14:36 > 0:14:39Well, he was questioning McBride over a robbery.
0:14:39 > 0:14:40And what Sean ever charged?
0:14:43 > 0:14:45Put it back, put it back, put it back!
0:14:51 > 0:14:53Gentlemen.
0:14:54 > 0:14:55Righty.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53DOOR OPENS
0:18:02 > 0:18:03What are you doing here?
0:18:05 > 0:18:06Minding my own business.
0:18:08 > 0:18:10Where'd you get these?
0:18:11 > 0:18:13This has nothing to do with you, Bill.
0:18:15 > 0:18:16Boss know you're here, Doc?
0:18:18 > 0:18:23The role of police surgeon affords me a certain investigative freedom.
0:18:24 > 0:18:25Good for you.
0:18:27 > 0:18:28You're under arrest.
0:18:31 > 0:18:34So, you broke into McBride's old house.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36- Abandoned house. - Don't you correct me.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38I was checking the reports on Cooper.
0:18:38 > 0:18:40Right after Sean McBride's miraculous about-face, is that it?
0:18:40 > 0:18:42- McBride's a liar. - What about the photos?
0:18:42 > 0:18:44- I borrowed them.- Borrowed?!
0:18:44 > 0:18:45- That'll be Constable Parks, sir. - Sergeant!
0:18:45 > 0:18:48It wasn't Daniel's fault. I see this as an extension of my duties...
0:18:48 > 0:18:50- For God's sake, shut up, Blake. - Book him now, sir?
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Goodbye!
0:18:53 > 0:18:56Now, it says here a certain unnamed doctor made statements
0:18:56 > 0:18:58to a journalist outside the prison yesterday.
0:18:58 > 0:19:01- Do you know anything about that? - I may have been misquoted.
0:19:01 > 0:19:05Why is that your concerns are more important than anyone else's?
0:19:05 > 0:19:07- Well, they're not! - Stuff up again and you're history!
0:19:17 > 0:19:18SHE TAPS ON THE DOOR
0:19:19 > 0:19:22A patient for you. No appointment.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26Thank you, Jean.
0:19:26 > 0:19:27Come through.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34I wasn't sure I needed an appointment.
0:19:35 > 0:19:38Well, it's a quiet day. What's the problem?
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Nothing at all.
0:19:40 > 0:19:42There's nothing wrong with me.
0:19:42 > 0:19:45I'm here under false pretences, and I apologise.
0:19:46 > 0:19:49I was hoping you might give me more of an extended interview.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52I'm afraid I won't be making any further comment.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54You were very eloquent at the prison.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56I was very angry.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58Perhaps you're worried your arguments don't stack up.
0:20:00 > 0:20:03That's an interesting tack. Please.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06So,
0:20:06 > 0:20:10how do you deal with what must be such a painful conflict of interest?
0:20:10 > 0:20:15I annoy the hell out of my boss, and I drink. What about you?
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Mostly I smoke, and I bite my nails.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22What would you say if I told you I'd discovered certain links
0:20:22 > 0:20:24between Sean McBride and the police?
0:20:26 > 0:20:28What kind of links?
0:20:29 > 0:20:33Sean McBride was known to pass on the occasional piece of information
0:20:33 > 0:20:34when it suited him.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39Do you know who he passed information on to?
0:20:39 > 0:20:41- Bill Hobart.- Oh!
0:20:41 > 0:20:43Mean anything?
0:20:45 > 0:20:47Do you think I could ask you a couple of questions?
0:20:47 > 0:20:49I don't think so.
0:20:49 > 0:20:52I try never to incriminate myself during work hours.
0:20:55 > 0:20:56After work?
0:20:56 > 0:20:58After work would be fine.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16- Right, get your hat. - Where we going?
0:21:16 > 0:21:18You need to learn where your loyalties lie, Constable.
0:21:37 > 0:21:38HE RINGS DOORBELL
0:21:44 > 0:21:46Deb? It's Bill.
0:21:51 > 0:21:55- Deb, you remember Danny Parks. - Hello, Danny.
0:21:55 > 0:21:56Hi.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59Danny and I thought we'd call round just to see how you're going.
0:22:02 > 0:22:03That's very kind.
0:22:31 > 0:22:32HE DROPS A COIN
0:22:37 > 0:22:39Jean!
0:22:39 > 0:22:41Would you mind popping in here for a moment, please?
0:22:44 > 0:22:46Oh!
0:22:49 > 0:22:51Um, yes.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54Would you mind terribly just laying down on the floor over here?
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Face up?
0:22:57 > 0:22:58Face down.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01- This is still... - Sean McBride, yes.
0:23:01 > 0:23:03Well, you know what I think.
0:23:03 > 0:23:04Yes.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06Thank you.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08Just down here.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13That's right.
0:23:13 > 0:23:14Um...
0:23:15 > 0:23:18- Do excuse me...- Oh! - I'm just...
0:23:18 > 0:23:20His leg...yeah.
0:23:22 > 0:23:23Perfect.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33- Um, how old is she? - He's six months.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Oh, right.
0:23:35 > 0:23:37Deb, have you got a small screwdriver?
0:23:37 > 0:23:39Yeah, it's in the kitchen.
0:23:39 > 0:23:40I'll take him.
0:23:45 > 0:23:46G'day.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50Hello.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55She's doing it tough.
0:23:57 > 0:23:58It's not going to get any easier.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02Kid's not going to have a dad.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05Pension's not worth Jack.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11So, we've got to look after her,
0:24:11 > 0:24:12don't we?
0:24:14 > 0:24:16She's family.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19- You clear?- Yeah.
0:24:22 > 0:24:25Good man.
0:24:25 > 0:24:26Thanks.
0:24:26 > 0:24:27Here's Mummy.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39Mattie, I borrow you for a moment, please?
0:24:39 > 0:24:40Come in and help me with something.
0:24:40 > 0:24:43Can you please get a move on? The rabbit's almost ready.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45Yes, of course. Jean, hop up for me for a moment,
0:24:45 > 0:24:49and threaten each other, yes?
0:24:49 > 0:24:51- Threaten each other.- Right.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56Because you're fighting, you see, you're fighting,
0:24:56 > 0:24:57struggling with each other,
0:24:57 > 0:25:00and, Jean, you would fall to the floor, hitting your head.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02- Oh, really?- What on?
0:25:02 > 0:25:03Well, I don't know.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Oh! How violent is this supposed to be?
0:25:05 > 0:25:06OVEN TIMER DINGS
0:25:07 > 0:25:09The rabbit is done!
0:25:09 > 0:25:11You can tidy up when you've finished.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17Right, so,
0:25:17 > 0:25:20a bullet into the front of the chest, yes,
0:25:20 > 0:25:23but the head wound was at the back, you see, so...
0:25:23 > 0:25:26Well, maybe he hit his head on the table as he fell.
0:25:26 > 0:25:27No, no, no,
0:25:27 > 0:25:31it was too far away from him, you see? The body was here.
0:25:31 > 0:25:34- Well, what sort of a head wound was it?- Blunt force.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36And there was nothing he could have fallen on?
0:25:56 > 0:25:57Someone else was there.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02Someone else was in that bloody room.
0:26:12 > 0:26:15Sorry to make you wait. Peter will be out in a moment.
0:26:15 > 0:26:16Oh, it's quite all right.
0:26:16 > 0:26:19I imagine he's feeling somewhat fragile.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21I'll give him fragile. Excuse me.
0:26:24 > 0:26:26Timothy McBride, put that down!
0:26:31 > 0:26:33Doctor.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35Seems like you've been treating the whole family.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38Yes. Father.
0:26:38 > 0:26:40Bridget called me. Peter's not in the good books today.
0:26:40 > 0:26:43- So I gather.- The wife's giving me hell.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48- Look, if I said anything before... - No, no, no. Forgotten.
0:26:50 > 0:26:54Gentlemen, I think there was someone else in the room
0:26:54 > 0:26:55when Clive Cooper died.
0:26:56 > 0:26:59Peter, did Sean ever talk to you about that night?
0:26:59 > 0:27:02Well, I haven't seen Sean since he went to jail.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04We might leave it at that.
0:27:06 > 0:27:09Father, forgive me for asking, but...
0:27:09 > 0:27:11where were you when Clive Cooper was shot?
0:27:11 > 0:27:14I was holding a private mass.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16At 6.20 on a Thursday evening?
0:27:16 > 0:27:18I minister to both my brothers, Doctor.
0:27:22 > 0:27:23Yes, of course.
0:27:28 > 0:27:32Daniel, how did Bill Hobart know I was going to be at McBride's...
0:27:32 > 0:27:34I was a bloody idiot to show you that file.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36No, you showed me the file because I asked you to.
0:27:36 > 0:27:37Yeah, well, don't ask me again.
0:27:37 > 0:27:39You need anything, photos, files, whatever,
0:27:39 > 0:27:41check with the boss, all right?
0:27:41 > 0:27:42All right.
0:27:42 > 0:27:44Clive was family!
0:27:46 > 0:27:48- What was that about? - None of your business.
0:27:48 > 0:27:49Is this about Sean McBride?
0:27:52 > 0:27:54You have no idea, Mattie, so shut up.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56Oh, so, now we see your true colours, do we?!
0:27:56 > 0:27:58Go talk to your boyfriend!
0:28:03 > 0:28:06The night Clive Cooper showed up at your place, what were you doing?
0:28:07 > 0:28:09I was drinking.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11So, why was he there?
0:28:13 > 0:28:16Well, he was interviewing you regards a robbery, was he not?
0:28:16 > 0:28:19- Ask them.- I'm asking you, Sean.
0:28:22 > 0:28:24There was no robbery.
0:28:24 > 0:28:26I gather you're friends with Bill Hobart.
0:28:26 > 0:28:28No!
0:28:28 > 0:28:30Well, perhaps not friends. Perhaps you just...
0:28:30 > 0:28:33pass on the odd bit of gossip from time to time, is that right?
0:28:36 > 0:28:38Sean, what was Clive doing at your place?
0:28:41 > 0:28:42Doc?
0:28:44 > 0:28:45A word.
0:28:58 > 0:29:01- I know what you're doing. - And what's that?
0:29:03 > 0:29:05I understand Imotil mimics the symptoms of the original infection
0:29:05 > 0:29:07without causing the ill effects, is that right?
0:29:08 > 0:29:10Our nurse has been doing her homework.
0:29:10 > 0:29:13Nurse is bloody worried about your lack of ethics,
0:29:13 > 0:29:14and I don't blame her!
0:29:14 > 0:29:15Yes, of course.
0:29:15 > 0:29:17You've got an execution to put on.
0:29:17 > 0:29:19We mustn't keep your superiors waiting.
0:29:19 > 0:29:21Just because I'm a prison warden doesn't mean I'm in favour
0:29:21 > 0:29:22of capital punishment.
0:29:22 > 0:29:24Keep your comments to yourself.
0:29:24 > 0:29:26I have a duty of care to the patient, Bill.
0:29:26 > 0:29:28Not any more, you don't.
0:29:28 > 0:29:30I'm relieving you of your duties.
0:29:39 > 0:29:42Leftovers for lunch are on the top shelf in the fridge.
0:29:42 > 0:29:44How did you know?
0:29:44 > 0:29:46Oh, intuition.
0:29:48 > 0:29:50- So, am I next?- Huh?
0:29:52 > 0:29:54You were very rude to the Doctor last night, Danny.
0:29:57 > 0:29:59- Well?- Well, it's all right for him.
0:29:59 > 0:30:02He just waltzes in and do whatever he wants.
0:30:02 > 0:30:03Ha! Is that what you think he does?
0:30:03 > 0:30:07Well, apart from making my life impossible at work.
0:30:07 > 0:30:09Yeah.
0:30:09 > 0:30:11We're in his house, Danny. Don't ever forget that.
0:30:13 > 0:30:15Sometimes the Doctor has his mind on other things.
0:30:15 > 0:30:18He doesn't always notice the rest of us.
0:30:18 > 0:30:20Yeah, well, maybe he needs to.
0:30:22 > 0:30:23Hmm.
0:30:23 > 0:30:25Maybe he does.
0:30:58 > 0:30:59THE BABY CRIES
0:31:05 > 0:31:07Mrs Cooper?
0:31:11 > 0:31:12HE KNOCKS
0:31:12 > 0:31:14Mrs Cooper, it's Dr Blake!
0:31:17 > 0:31:18Mrs Cooper!
0:31:23 > 0:31:25Mrs Cooper, please.
0:31:39 > 0:31:41Oh!
0:31:41 > 0:31:43- I told you to stay out of it! - Bloody...
0:31:54 > 0:31:57Cooper was one of your most experienced men, was he not?
0:31:57 > 0:31:59How did Sean McBride manage to inflict a wound
0:31:59 > 0:32:00at the back of his head
0:32:00 > 0:32:02and then a gunshot wound to the front of his chest?
0:32:02 > 0:32:05I mean, I just can't imagine McBride getting the drop on him somehow.
0:32:05 > 0:32:07I have no idea what you're talking about.
0:32:09 > 0:32:10Look,
0:32:10 > 0:32:12a table was overturned in the fight.
0:32:12 > 0:32:14There was small change on the floor.
0:32:14 > 0:32:15That's part of the evidence file.
0:32:15 > 0:32:18You don't bet on cards if you're playing by yourself,
0:32:18 > 0:32:21nor do you smoke corked and uncorked cigarettes.
0:32:21 > 0:32:23Someone else was in that room when Cooper was shot,
0:32:23 > 0:32:26which makes Sean McBride's conviction unsound, even if he confessed.
0:32:29 > 0:32:32One of these days I'm going to kill you.
0:32:32 > 0:32:33Look, one more thing.
0:32:33 > 0:32:35The official reason for Cooper being there
0:32:35 > 0:32:37was to question Sean McBride about the robbery.
0:32:37 > 0:32:39What robbery, hmm?
0:32:39 > 0:32:41Which robbery was it?
0:32:41 > 0:32:43Sean McBride certainly doesn't know. Do you know why?
0:32:43 > 0:32:45Because no-one's ever questioned him about it.
0:32:45 > 0:32:48- Have you quite finished? - Nearly. Cooper was shot around 6.20.
0:32:48 > 0:32:50Bill Hobart was outside the building
0:32:50 > 0:32:53when Parks and Harris arrived at 6.30.
0:32:53 > 0:32:54Now, why wasn't he inside?
0:32:55 > 0:32:57Where was he when Cooper was shot?
0:33:01 > 0:33:04I want you to explain to me what this is all about!
0:33:06 > 0:33:07What's going on?!
0:33:07 > 0:33:09INDISTINCT SHOUTING
0:33:15 > 0:33:17The superintendent's not happy, eh?
0:33:18 > 0:33:20Nope.
0:33:22 > 0:33:24What's Bill Hobart's usual pub?
0:33:28 > 0:33:30The Pig and Whistle.
0:33:32 > 0:33:33Well,
0:33:33 > 0:33:36I reckon he could use a drink later on.
0:33:36 > 0:33:38Yeah.
0:34:01 > 0:34:04Hello. I was wondering if Dr Blake is in.
0:34:04 > 0:34:06Do you have an appointment?
0:34:06 > 0:34:09- I didn't have one earlier. - I remember.
0:34:09 > 0:34:11It's Jean, isn't it?
0:34:11 > 0:34:13That's right, Mrs McDonald.
0:34:13 > 0:34:17Oh, you're Lucien's secretary, aren't you?
0:34:17 > 0:34:18I'm the Doctor's receptionist.
0:34:18 > 0:34:23Wonderful. Would you mind giving him this? It's the number of my hotel.
0:34:23 > 0:34:24Tell him to call me.
0:34:26 > 0:34:28Thank you, Jean.
0:34:30 > 0:34:32Mrs McDonald...
0:34:34 > 0:34:37Dr Blake doesn't need you making things difficult for him.
0:34:37 > 0:34:38Difficult?
0:34:38 > 0:34:40I know the kind of articles you write.
0:34:40 > 0:34:44- How do you know I'm a journalist? - He speaks before he thinks.
0:34:44 > 0:34:47I'm just asking you to respect him when you're writing your articles.
0:34:49 > 0:34:51His reputation is important to you.
0:34:51 > 0:34:52I don't give a fig about his reputation,
0:34:52 > 0:34:54but he forgets that other people do.
0:34:54 > 0:34:56I'm asking you to keep that in mind.
0:34:56 > 0:35:00- And that's speaking as his receptionist, is it?- That's right.
0:35:00 > 0:35:02Good afternoon, Mrs McDonald.
0:35:12 > 0:35:15Oi, we're closed!
0:35:15 > 0:35:17Two beers, thanks, Stan.
0:35:22 > 0:35:26- You've got a nerve. - So have you.
0:35:26 > 0:35:28It's after closing time.
0:35:30 > 0:35:32Thank you, Stan.
0:35:34 > 0:35:36Where were you when Cooper was shot?
0:35:36 > 0:35:38Here.
0:35:40 > 0:35:41Yep.
0:35:41 > 0:35:43Clive Cooper takes one in the chest
0:35:43 > 0:35:45and I'm knocking back beers after closing time.
0:35:45 > 0:35:46Great.
0:35:48 > 0:35:51So, you're here knocking 'em back, Clive goes to visit Sean.
0:35:53 > 0:35:55And the next time anyone saw you
0:35:55 > 0:35:58was outside McBride's place after the shooting, yes?
0:35:58 > 0:35:59Yes.
0:35:59 > 0:36:01Hmm.
0:36:04 > 0:36:06Bill, how did you know to go there?
0:36:09 > 0:36:12You chaps don't usually carry your guns. Why was Clive carrying his?
0:36:16 > 0:36:18Unless you were there the whole time.
0:36:19 > 0:36:22Maybe you smacked your mate in the back of the head.
0:36:22 > 0:36:24Sean was going for his gun.
0:36:24 > 0:36:25Maybe...
0:36:25 > 0:36:28maybe you're the one who pulled the trigger.
0:36:28 > 0:36:30Why in God's name would I do that?
0:36:30 > 0:36:33Oh, I don't know. Maybe you hated him. Maybe you owed him money.
0:36:34 > 0:36:36Maybe you were in love with his wife.
0:36:37 > 0:36:40Maybe you'd been giving her one all along.
0:36:42 > 0:36:44I thought doctors were supposed to be smart.
0:36:46 > 0:36:49I wasn't the bloke giving her one.
0:36:49 > 0:36:50Sean McBride was.
0:37:05 > 0:37:07Mattie?
0:37:07 > 0:37:09If I wanted to consult a child's vaccination records,
0:37:09 > 0:37:11how would I go about that?
0:37:11 > 0:37:14You could ask the district nurse.
0:37:14 > 0:37:15Yes.
0:37:17 > 0:37:18I thought so.
0:37:34 > 0:37:37You realise this is the kind of thing that gets you into trouble?
0:37:37 > 0:37:39- Yes.- Do you have an alternative plan?
0:37:39 > 0:37:41No.
0:37:41 > 0:37:42That's my point.
0:37:42 > 0:37:44SHE KNOCKS THE DOOR
0:37:44 > 0:37:48Mrs Cooper, it's Mattie O'Brien, district nurse.
0:37:48 > 0:37:53I apologise for the lateness of the hour, Mrs Cooper.
0:37:53 > 0:37:58I understand Andrew is late for his diphtheria-pertussis shot...
0:38:00 > 0:38:01Mrs Cooper, I'm Dr Blake.
0:38:05 > 0:38:09Sean McBride told me he didn't kill your husband, and I believe him.
0:38:10 > 0:38:13How is that possible?
0:38:13 > 0:38:14I don't know yet.
0:38:16 > 0:38:17Then why are you telling me?
0:38:17 > 0:38:19Because I'm trying to find a way to save him.
0:38:21 > 0:38:22Now,
0:38:23 > 0:38:27I know you and Sean were...
0:38:27 > 0:38:28..intimate.
0:38:30 > 0:38:31Did your husband know?
0:38:35 > 0:38:37Mrs Cooper,
0:38:37 > 0:38:39this is really important.
0:38:42 > 0:38:43You must've cared about Sean.
0:38:45 > 0:38:47Yes.
0:38:48 > 0:38:49Please, take your time.
0:38:54 > 0:38:58Clive came home that night. I don't know how he found out.
0:38:58 > 0:38:59He was so angry.
0:39:01 > 0:39:03Then he said he was going to Sean's?
0:39:03 > 0:39:05He had a gun.
0:39:06 > 0:39:08I didn't know what to do.
0:39:08 > 0:39:11So, you called Bill Hobart at the pub.
0:39:11 > 0:39:13I knew he'd be there.
0:39:13 > 0:39:14Yes.
0:39:17 > 0:39:19Mrs Cooper,
0:39:19 > 0:39:22have you seen Sean since your husband died?
0:39:23 > 0:39:24- Of course not.- No, of course.
0:39:28 > 0:39:30Just one more question, if I may.
0:39:34 > 0:39:36Is Sean the father of your baby?
0:40:08 > 0:40:11I am sorry, Danny. I know I've made things difficult for you.
0:40:13 > 0:40:16Yeah, you did, but looks like you were right.
0:40:18 > 0:40:19I still can't prove it, though, can I?
0:40:22 > 0:40:24Bill being out the front when we got there,
0:40:24 > 0:40:27I didn't even think about it at the time.
0:40:27 > 0:40:29McBride was shouting at us,
0:40:29 > 0:40:32and when he said he'd shot Clive, Bill just headed straight for him.
0:40:34 > 0:40:35And what did Sean do?
0:40:35 > 0:40:37Well, he was waving his gun around.
0:40:37 > 0:40:41I fired at him, missed him, and got him on the second shot.
0:40:42 > 0:40:44He never took a shot at us.
0:40:45 > 0:40:47He had bullets, he had time.
0:40:49 > 0:40:51But he didn't shoot.
0:40:51 > 0:40:54I don't think he was ever going to take a shot at you, Danny.
0:40:54 > 0:40:55I thought I was going to die!
0:41:10 > 0:41:15If there's ever police stuff you really need to know,
0:41:15 > 0:41:20I'll try and tell you, if it's important.
0:41:20 > 0:41:22But it's gotta be my decision, all right?
0:41:24 > 0:41:26All right, Danny.
0:41:43 > 0:41:44SHE KNOCKS ON THE DOOR
0:41:44 > 0:41:45Yes?
0:41:45 > 0:41:48Your pacing up and down is keeping me awake.
0:41:48 > 0:41:49Oh!
0:41:49 > 0:41:51There you are.
0:41:51 > 0:41:53There was a note for you. I left it on the kitchen table.
0:41:53 > 0:41:55Yes, thank you.
0:41:55 > 0:41:56Jean?
0:41:57 > 0:42:00Would you join me, please?
0:42:02 > 0:42:05I, um...
0:42:05 > 0:42:07I know how you feel about all of this.
0:42:07 > 0:42:09Yes, you do.
0:42:10 > 0:42:12It's just...
0:42:16 > 0:42:17..they're going to hang Sean McBride tomorrow
0:42:17 > 0:42:19and I don't think he killed anyone.
0:42:19 > 0:42:23In fact, I think he's protecting someone.
0:42:24 > 0:42:26- Who?- Oh, I don't know.
0:42:27 > 0:42:28Bloody Bill Hobart.
0:42:28 > 0:42:31Why would he lie to protect Bill Hobart?
0:42:32 > 0:42:35I don't know, but someone else was there.
0:42:35 > 0:42:36Who else, then?
0:42:39 > 0:42:41- His brothers. - Well, that sounds more likely.
0:42:43 > 0:42:45Who else would you put your life at stake for?
0:42:46 > 0:42:47Family.
0:42:47 > 0:42:49It's always about family.
0:43:05 > 0:43:07- RADIO:- This is the news from the ABC.
0:43:07 > 0:43:10The execution of convicted police killer Sean McBride
0:43:10 > 0:43:13will proceed today despite last-minute appeals for clemency
0:43:13 > 0:43:15from religious and anti-capital punishment groups.
0:43:15 > 0:43:18The execution date was postponed for several days
0:43:18 > 0:43:20due to an illness suffered by McBride.
0:43:20 > 0:43:23Public interest in the issue has been mounting, but the premiere...
0:43:23 > 0:43:25Doctor?
0:43:29 > 0:43:31For Christ's sake, Blake, it's circumstantial!
0:43:31 > 0:43:34The entire case against Sean McBride was circumstantial!
0:43:34 > 0:43:36- He confessed!- It was a lie!
0:43:36 > 0:43:38- Cigarette butts, coins...- Come on, one of the brothers was there!
0:43:38 > 0:43:40- Oh, which one?- Peter!
0:43:40 > 0:43:42- Yeah, you're guessing! Admissions? - No.
0:43:42 > 0:43:43- Did McBride recant?- No!
0:43:43 > 0:43:46Then you've got nothing. They want someone to hang!
0:43:46 > 0:43:48- Oh, for God's sake, Lawson! - Just go home!
0:43:48 > 0:43:50You've done all you can. Just go home.
0:43:54 > 0:43:58No, no! One of you was there! Sean's covering for you.
0:43:58 > 0:44:00For God's sake, Peter, they're going to hang him!
0:44:00 > 0:44:01Ah, corked cigarettes.
0:44:01 > 0:44:04Sean doesn't smoke corked and yet there were both kinds of butts
0:44:04 > 0:44:06found on the floor!
0:44:06 > 0:44:09- Just go.- Peter, is everything OK?
0:44:09 > 0:44:12- Yes, love, it's fine. - Oh, you've not told your wife.
0:44:12 > 0:44:15- Get out!- He's letting his brother take the blame for something
0:44:15 > 0:44:17- he didn't do...- Get out! - He's letting Sean die!
0:44:17 > 0:44:20- Now, is this the man you married? - What's he talking about?!
0:44:20 > 0:44:23Really, surely not! Is this the man you married - a coward?!
0:44:23 > 0:44:25Shut it! Get out of here!
0:44:29 > 0:44:31MUSIC PLAYS
0:44:36 > 0:44:37HE SWITCHES THE MUSIC OFF
0:44:37 > 0:44:40Mattie, I need your help. Come along.
0:44:50 > 0:44:51No.
0:44:51 > 0:44:53You stay here. I'll talk to her.
0:44:53 > 0:44:55- Now, Mattie...- No.
0:44:55 > 0:44:57Men scare her now. You especially.
0:44:58 > 0:44:59You stay here.
0:45:38 > 0:45:39THEY RECITE A PRAYER IN LATIN
0:46:35 > 0:46:36Bill!
0:46:36 > 0:46:38Bill! A word, please!
0:46:38 > 0:46:40Doc?
0:46:41 > 0:46:43- What is it now? - Look, just hear me out.
0:46:45 > 0:46:48It'll be all right, OK?
0:47:03 > 0:47:04- This is wrong!- Father.
0:47:04 > 0:47:07No, this is not fair! Sean deserves peace...
0:47:07 > 0:47:09- Is suicide a mortal sin, yes or no? - Of course it is.
0:47:09 > 0:47:11Then going to his death voluntarily,
0:47:11 > 0:47:13Sean's committing mortal sin, and you made him do it.
0:47:18 > 0:47:20Hello, Sean.
0:47:24 > 0:47:25Sean?
0:47:27 > 0:47:29Sean, this is Andrew.
0:47:30 > 0:47:32You haven't met him, but he's your son.
0:47:34 > 0:47:36Your little boy.
0:47:37 > 0:47:39Now, if you die,
0:47:39 > 0:47:42Andrew's going to grow up without a father.
0:47:45 > 0:47:47Do you really think he deserves that?
0:47:54 > 0:47:55No.
0:47:57 > 0:47:59Sean, who...
0:47:59 > 0:48:01Who killed Clive Cooper?
0:48:17 > 0:48:19CAR ENGINE HUMS
0:48:38 > 0:48:39THEY BANG ON THE DOOR
0:49:07 > 0:49:09I was playing cards with Sean.
0:49:11 > 0:49:12I stepped outside
0:49:15 > 0:49:16and I heard fighting.
0:49:19 > 0:49:20When I came in,
0:49:20 > 0:49:23Sean was wrestling with that copper.
0:49:25 > 0:49:27The copper was really big.
0:49:29 > 0:49:32He knocked Sean over and pulled out his gun.
0:49:34 > 0:49:35I...
0:49:35 > 0:49:38grabbed a chair and smacked him in the back of the head.
0:49:39 > 0:49:41But the bloke wouldn't go down.
0:49:44 > 0:49:46I thought he was going to shoot me.
0:49:48 > 0:49:49So, I grabbed him.
0:49:51 > 0:49:53That's when the gun went off.
0:49:57 > 0:49:59Then they called you.
0:50:02 > 0:50:04It was your idea for Sean to plead guilty.
0:50:07 > 0:50:09Peter had a wife and three kids.
0:50:28 > 0:50:30Don't say it, all right?
0:50:32 > 0:50:33The Doc was right.
0:50:34 > 0:50:37- It could've ended so badly. - Yeah, I know.
0:50:47 > 0:50:50Maybe that's why capital punishment is wrong.
0:50:50 > 0:50:52Just the thought of one innocent person...
0:50:52 > 0:50:54Yeah, well, that's great for you, Mattie,
0:50:54 > 0:50:57but I've come out of all this knowing absolutely nothing.
0:50:57 > 0:50:59But you do know Sean was innocent.
0:50:59 > 0:51:00Yeah, he was,
0:51:00 > 0:51:03and we nearly killed him for lying,
0:51:03 > 0:51:05so what do I do next time?
0:51:05 > 0:51:08A copper goes down and someone comes at me with a gun.
0:51:09 > 0:51:10What do I do then?
0:51:13 > 0:51:15I don't know.
0:51:23 > 0:51:25You're an interesting man, Lucien.
0:51:25 > 0:51:29Studied overseas, seen the world.
0:51:29 > 0:51:31So, what am I doing here?
0:51:31 > 0:51:32Yes.
0:51:36 > 0:51:40I came back when my father was dying. It was his practice.
0:51:40 > 0:51:42This is a conservative town.
0:51:42 > 0:51:44You're not going to make a lot of friends here
0:51:44 > 0:51:45with some of the views you hold.
0:51:45 > 0:51:47Is this for the article?
0:51:47 > 0:51:50No, this is for me.
0:51:53 > 0:51:56Well, this seems as good a place as any to try to make a difference,
0:51:58 > 0:51:59and it's my home.
0:52:01 > 0:52:02You were a POW, weren't you?
0:52:06 > 0:52:07Yes, I was.
0:52:10 > 0:52:14But what about you? Were you always the erm...
0:52:14 > 0:52:17The intrepid reporter from the Herald?
0:52:18 > 0:52:20I married young.
0:52:20 > 0:52:23He walked out, I needed a job, and I was good with words.
0:52:23 > 0:52:25And you still are.
0:52:30 > 0:52:32I'm leaving tomorrow.
0:52:32 > 0:52:34Oh, that's a pity.
0:52:34 > 0:52:36I was hoping we could do this again.
0:52:38 > 0:52:39Perhaps if you're ever in Melbourne.
0:52:41 > 0:52:42Perhaps.
0:52:45 > 0:52:46I should go.
0:52:47 > 0:52:49Thank you.
0:52:49 > 0:52:51An absolute pleasure.
0:53:19 > 0:53:21- Morning.- Morning.
0:53:23 > 0:53:25How was your night?
0:53:25 > 0:53:27Fine.
0:53:27 > 0:53:29How was yours?
0:53:29 > 0:53:31Mmm.
0:53:31 > 0:53:32Fine.
0:53:33 > 0:53:36I see your friend's written a little article.
0:53:36 > 0:53:38Quite well-written, I thought, too.
0:53:39 > 0:53:41Really?
0:53:41 > 0:53:43- Mmm.- Does she quote me?
0:53:44 > 0:53:45No.
0:53:47 > 0:53:48Sorry.
