0:00:11 > 0:00:14BUSTLING VOICES

0:00:22 > 0:00:24Can I have your attention, please?

0:00:26 > 0:00:29We're fortunate to be living in a time of great progress,

0:00:29 > 0:00:33but all too often, advancement comes at the expense of our heritage.

0:00:33 > 0:00:37My brother and I believe the past is something to be cherished,

0:00:37 > 0:00:41Ballarat's past captured forever for future generations.

0:00:41 > 0:00:44I'm delighted to announce Council has approved the site for development.

0:00:44 > 0:00:46- You used me! - SHOCKED MURMURS

0:00:46 > 0:00:49You bloody Fosters are all the same.

0:00:49 > 0:00:51- Join us for a drink. - Yeah, I don't want a drink!

0:00:51 > 0:00:53Can someone show Mr Young out?

0:00:53 > 0:00:55She used me, and you all know it!

0:00:56 > 0:00:59This is your fault, isn't it, Foster?

0:00:59 > 0:01:02I'm not finished with you. Get your hands off me!

0:01:02 > 0:01:05Ladies and gentlemen, Mr Young's personal issues

0:01:05 > 0:01:08have nothing to do with this glorious development.

0:01:08 > 0:01:12So please join me in celebrating something that is truly historic.

0:01:12 > 0:01:15I give you the Foster family's legacy - Goldrush Park.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57Fluids - that's what you need.

0:02:57 > 0:02:58You're dehydrated.

0:02:58 > 0:03:00Do spirits count?

0:03:00 > 0:03:02- Only if they're top-shelf.- Always.

0:03:02 > 0:03:05Well, nearly always.

0:03:05 > 0:03:08Now, any existing conditions or injuries I need to know about?

0:03:08 > 0:03:12No, nothing exciting, except this old war wound back here.

0:03:14 > 0:03:15And where were you serving?

0:03:15 > 0:03:17North Africa, 6th Division.

0:03:17 > 0:03:19I was in Singapore.

0:03:19 > 0:03:21Oh. You would have seen some action, then.

0:03:21 > 0:03:23We both did, by the looks of things.

0:03:23 > 0:03:28Yes, well, my wife used to say that I got shot running the wrong way.

0:03:28 > 0:03:31Is that right? She sounds like a woman of good humour.

0:03:31 > 0:03:35She was. She died nearly two years ago.

0:03:35 > 0:03:39- I am sorry.- Well, part of the reason for the move here.

0:03:39 > 0:03:42- Fresh start and all.- Quite.

0:03:42 > 0:03:46Do you, um, have any family or friends in Ballarat?

0:03:46 > 0:03:49Not a soul. Not yet, anyway.

0:03:49 > 0:03:52There are worse places for a fresh start.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55Now, what is it you do, Mr Carlyle?

0:03:55 > 0:03:58- Oh, please - call me Frank. - Frank. What is it you do, Frank?

0:03:58 > 0:04:00KNOCK ON DOOR

0:04:00 > 0:04:02Oh, sorry, Lucien. That was the police station.

0:04:02 > 0:04:06- You're wanted at the swimming baths. - Right. Thank you, Jean.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09Jean, Mr Frank Carlyle. Just moved to the area.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11- Mr Carlyle. - Pleased to meet you, Jean.

0:04:11 > 0:04:14Well, we best get going.

0:04:14 > 0:04:17- Where?- Oh, the swimming baths.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19I'm not sure I follow you, Frank.

0:04:19 > 0:04:23Well, the truth is, I'm your new chief superintendent.

0:04:32 > 0:04:35- Reg Foster.- Yeah. Who's your friend?

0:04:35 > 0:04:39Your new boss. It's Bill Hobart, isn't it?

0:04:39 > 0:04:42- Frank.- Frank Carlyle?

0:04:42 > 0:04:45Yes. Whatever you've heard, it's a lie, unless it's complimentary.

0:04:45 > 0:04:48- And you must be...- Simmons, sir.

0:04:48 > 0:04:51I fell in, trying to get him out.

0:04:53 > 0:04:56So, what have we got?

0:04:56 > 0:04:59Ah, Reg Foster's a widower, big into property.

0:04:59 > 0:05:01He's on the front page of the paper this morning.

0:05:01 > 0:05:04Found about two hours ago by younger brother Noel.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07- We only got him out to... - Yeah, yeah - to identify him.

0:05:07 > 0:05:09It's fine. You did the right thing.

0:05:10 > 0:05:14So...where's his brother?

0:05:16 > 0:05:19We swam together most mornings.

0:05:19 > 0:05:20Was Reg a strong swimmer?

0:05:22 > 0:05:25But it helped with his spine.

0:05:25 > 0:05:30He had an injury from... when we were young.

0:05:31 > 0:05:32It's my fault.

0:05:32 > 0:05:34Why would you say that, Noel?

0:05:34 > 0:05:38We meet every morning at 6am, and I was ten minutes late.

0:05:38 > 0:05:40I...I could have saved him.

0:05:43 > 0:05:44Noel...

0:05:46 > 0:05:48- ..are these Reg's clothes?- Yes.

0:05:49 > 0:05:50Right.

0:05:52 > 0:05:55We'll need to take them to the morgue with the body.

0:05:57 > 0:05:59His watch stopped.

0:05:59 > 0:06:00Right.

0:06:03 > 0:06:04"To my sons."

0:06:06 > 0:06:09There's a lot of water in his lungs.

0:06:09 > 0:06:11Mm.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13- Anything else?- The spinal injury.

0:06:13 > 0:06:15Yes, but anything else?

0:06:15 > 0:06:18Evidence of testicular atrophy.

0:06:18 > 0:06:21Duly noted. And what else?

0:06:23 > 0:06:24I give up.

0:06:27 > 0:06:29His swimming trunks are on inside out.

0:06:29 > 0:06:33Perhaps he dressed in the dark.

0:06:33 > 0:06:36There's no external cranial injuries. I already checked.

0:06:36 > 0:06:40Very good. Alice, would you mind passing me the magnifying glass?

0:06:40 > 0:06:41Hands are full.

0:06:44 > 0:06:45Right you are.

0:06:51 > 0:06:54Now...

0:06:54 > 0:06:57several tufts of hair missing,

0:06:57 > 0:07:01and what appears to be dried blood around the follicles.

0:07:03 > 0:07:06Could have happened when they dragged him out.

0:07:06 > 0:07:07True.

0:07:07 > 0:07:11Bill Hobart can be somewhat enthusiastic.

0:07:19 > 0:07:21What?

0:07:21 > 0:07:24This water's not chlorinated.

0:07:24 > 0:07:27So our man didn't drown at the baths?

0:07:27 > 0:07:29He was killed somewhere else and moved postmortem.

0:07:29 > 0:07:31Alice is testing the diatoms as we speak.

0:07:31 > 0:07:35- Diatoms being? - A micro-organism present in water.

0:07:35 > 0:07:39In theory, it's possible to confirm the drowning site

0:07:39 > 0:07:42- by finding a match with the water in his lungs.- Hm.

0:07:42 > 0:07:45- But only in theory?- We'd need...

0:07:45 > 0:07:48We'd need samples from every body of water, every tap,

0:07:48 > 0:07:50every damn puddle in Ballarat.

0:07:50 > 0:07:53Well, best we requisition some bottles, then.

0:07:53 > 0:07:57Yes. I'll start at the baths - test the sinks and...

0:07:57 > 0:07:59No, no, no. You're far more valuable with me.

0:07:59 > 0:08:01Get one of these blokes to do the legwork.

0:08:01 > 0:08:04Constable Simmons - you have an affinity for water.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06Dr Blake here has a job for you.

0:08:06 > 0:08:10We, on the other hand, will start here -

0:08:10 > 0:08:12the last place Reg was seen alive.

0:08:21 > 0:08:26Norma, how long have you been Mr Foster's secretary?

0:08:26 > 0:08:28Three years.

0:08:28 > 0:08:30He was a gentleman.

0:08:30 > 0:08:33I don't know why anyone would hurt him.

0:08:33 > 0:08:37Very organised. Certainly loved a right angle.

0:08:37 > 0:08:42He said that's how he made his fortune - routine and order.

0:08:43 > 0:08:45Were you at the presentation last night?

0:08:45 > 0:08:47No. I'd gone home.

0:08:47 > 0:08:50So you weren't there for Reg's big announcement?

0:08:50 > 0:08:52I wasn't feeling well.

0:08:52 > 0:08:54If you'll excuse me.

0:08:58 > 0:09:02That reminds me - we'll need a water sample from the bathroom.

0:09:04 > 0:09:08How's he financing this Goldrush Park?

0:09:08 > 0:09:11The Fosters are, um, independently wealthy.

0:09:11 > 0:09:15Ah. Get a copy of the will, see who stands to benefit, then.

0:09:15 > 0:09:18There's something not right here, Frank.

0:09:20 > 0:09:23Don't mind me. Rose Anderson, The Courier.

0:09:23 > 0:09:25Chief Superintendent Carlyle.

0:09:25 > 0:09:28I'm just taking a few snaps for Reg Foster's obituary.

0:09:28 > 0:09:29How did you hear about all this?

0:09:29 > 0:09:31Welcome to Ballarat.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33No photographs.

0:09:33 > 0:09:35I heard he drowned in the swimming baths.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38Is there more to the story? There is, isn't there?

0:09:38 > 0:09:40Miss Anderson, did you take this photograph last night?

0:09:40 > 0:09:42Valerie Foster called up first thing

0:09:42 > 0:09:44to complain about being cut out of picture.

0:09:44 > 0:09:47- Reg's wife?- Sister.

0:09:47 > 0:09:49I'll need a copy of all your photographs, if I may,

0:09:49 > 0:09:52- thank you, Miss Anderson.- Why?

0:09:52 > 0:09:53What are you investigating? Is this a homicide?

0:09:53 > 0:09:56- I'll need you to leave now, Miss Anderson.- I will do you a deal.

0:09:56 > 0:10:00Give me a statement, and I'll tell you who made a kerfuffle last night.

0:10:00 > 0:10:04I'll do YOU a deal - you tell me everything you know,

0:10:04 > 0:10:08and I won't arrest you for obstructing a police investigation.

0:10:14 > 0:10:16Ah, Mr Young?

0:10:17 > 0:10:18Yes.

0:10:20 > 0:10:21Quick word?

0:10:22 > 0:10:25Um, yes. Indeed. Just through here.

0:10:25 > 0:10:28Come in.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31Look, we just wanted to have a quick chat about the death of Reg Foster.

0:10:33 > 0:10:34OK. Um...

0:10:36 > 0:10:39I couldn't hurt anyone - look at me.

0:10:39 > 0:10:40Reg Foster was physically impaired.

0:10:40 > 0:10:42It wouldn't take much to do some harm.

0:10:42 > 0:10:45And you did threaten him last night in front of a roomful of people.

0:10:45 > 0:10:48First of all, I was angry.

0:10:48 > 0:10:51And-And maybe a little plastered.

0:10:51 > 0:10:53Why don't you tell us what he did to you, Lionel?

0:10:56 > 0:11:01Valerie Foster and I were together, at least we tried to be.

0:11:02 > 0:11:04Reg was possessive.

0:11:06 > 0:11:10He wanted his sister to stay a spinster, at his beck and call.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13He insisted that she ended it.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15And he thought I wasn't worthy.

0:11:15 > 0:11:16Right. And she did what he wanted?

0:11:18 > 0:11:20Go on.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23The Fosters were planning the Goldrush Park development,

0:11:23 > 0:11:25and they wanted someone from the Council onside.

0:11:25 > 0:11:27Valerie asked me to push the approval through -

0:11:27 > 0:11:31said that if I did it, we would win Reg over.

0:11:31 > 0:11:32But it didn't work?

0:11:38 > 0:11:42As soon as the park was approved, she ditched me again.

0:11:42 > 0:11:46I know Reg was behind it.

0:11:46 > 0:11:47They used me.

0:11:51 > 0:11:53I fell for it.

0:11:53 > 0:11:55Lionel, where's your nearest sink?

0:11:57 > 0:11:59You certainly have a way with people.

0:11:59 > 0:12:02I have never seen a suspect offer up his house keys before.

0:12:02 > 0:12:06I'll drop you at the morgue so you can have someone test that sample.

0:12:06 > 0:12:08That sink big enough to drown in, though?

0:12:08 > 0:12:11Well, it only takes a few inches of water.

0:12:12 > 0:12:14Oh, while I'm at Lionel's place,

0:12:14 > 0:12:16I might send Bill Hobart round to the Foster house.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19- He can question Valerie. - I wouldn't mind joining him.

0:12:19 > 0:12:24I've heard this is the way you like to work, which is fine by me.

0:12:24 > 0:12:28You keep getting results, I'll keep letting you do what you want.

0:12:54 > 0:12:56DOORBELL CHIMES

0:13:06 > 0:13:08Doc? Can we get a move on?

0:13:08 > 0:13:09Right you are, Bill.

0:13:12 > 0:13:16Oh! Bloody hell.

0:13:16 > 0:13:17HE BLOWS

0:13:22 > 0:13:24Murder?

0:13:25 > 0:13:28It appears your brother didn't drown at the pool, Miss Foster.

0:13:30 > 0:13:36Yes. Whoever committed the crime wanted it to look like an accident.

0:13:37 > 0:13:40Valerie, perhaps you should have a seat.

0:13:40 > 0:13:42No, I'm fine. Thank you.

0:13:42 > 0:13:44Are you sure about this?

0:13:46 > 0:13:49Is it just you and your brother who live here, Miss Foster?

0:13:49 > 0:13:51What about your younger brother Noel?

0:13:51 > 0:13:53Noel has his own house.

0:13:53 > 0:13:57I was only staying here temporarily when I returned from America.

0:13:57 > 0:14:01Reg insisted I stay. He got lonely.

0:14:01 > 0:14:03Right.

0:14:03 > 0:14:05When did you last see Reg?

0:14:05 > 0:14:09In his office, after the party. I stayed to help him clean up.

0:14:09 > 0:14:12He couldn't rest until the place was completely spotless.

0:14:12 > 0:14:14Was there anyone else with you?

0:14:14 > 0:14:17- Did you return home together?- Yes.

0:14:17 > 0:14:19And did you notice anyone following you at any stage

0:14:19 > 0:14:21or anyone loitering outside the office?

0:14:21 > 0:14:24No.

0:14:24 > 0:14:28And what time did you arrive back here?

0:14:29 > 0:14:32Around nine, 9.30.

0:14:32 > 0:14:36Reg stayed up to do some reading. I went straight to bed.

0:14:36 > 0:14:41When I woke up this morning, I received the phone call from Noel.

0:14:42 > 0:14:45Reg's bed wasn't even slept in.

0:14:47 > 0:14:51Valerie, would you mind terribly if I had a look around?

0:14:51 > 0:14:52No.

0:14:52 > 0:14:54Thank you.

0:15:26 > 0:15:28What are you doing?

0:15:28 > 0:15:30What happened here?

0:15:33 > 0:15:35The bath has started leaking.

0:15:38 > 0:15:40What a nuisance.

0:15:47 > 0:15:48Bill, look here.

0:15:50 > 0:15:52Just like his office.

0:15:52 > 0:15:54That's why it felt so wrong.

0:15:54 > 0:15:57Do you recall how Reg's clothes were left at the pool?

0:15:57 > 0:16:01- They were just shoved in the locker. - Yes.

0:16:01 > 0:16:03But here, just like his office,

0:16:03 > 0:16:07everything is stored and arranged neatly, impeccably.

0:16:07 > 0:16:12So either the killer didn't know Reg very well, which is doubtful,

0:16:12 > 0:16:16or they were in a panic and not thinking.

0:16:19 > 0:16:20Valerie...

0:16:21 > 0:16:28..I couldn't help but notice that, uh...snow globe in the living room.

0:16:28 > 0:16:30It's a boule a neige.

0:16:30 > 0:16:31Yes.

0:16:31 > 0:16:33Statue of Liberty. Is it yours?

0:16:33 > 0:16:38Yes, actually. It's a souvenir. I lived in New York for several years.

0:16:38 > 0:16:40Ah.

0:16:40 > 0:16:42Wonderful city, New York.

0:16:42 > 0:16:45What brought you back to Ballarat?

0:16:45 > 0:16:46The weather.

0:16:49 > 0:16:52I'll go have a look at the other rooms, shall I?

0:17:04 > 0:17:06One of yours?

0:17:07 > 0:17:10Unlike some, I don't believe in decorating myself

0:17:10 > 0:17:13to impress the opposite sex.

0:17:19 > 0:17:21Perfume.

0:17:21 > 0:17:23Quite strong.

0:17:23 > 0:17:26Mm. Sometimes I think the woman bathes in it.

0:17:26 > 0:17:29And what woman might that be?

0:17:29 > 0:17:31I told Reg to stay away from her. She's nothing but a gold-digger.

0:17:31 > 0:17:34But she'd flutter her eyelashes, and he'd be enchanted all over again.

0:17:35 > 0:17:37What woman?

0:17:37 > 0:17:41'She's a vicious, bitter old spinster.'

0:17:41 > 0:17:43She's jealous of me.

0:17:43 > 0:17:46She's jealous of anyone who draws attention from her.

0:17:46 > 0:17:49Why didn't you tell us about the relationship before?

0:17:49 > 0:17:53Because it was private. That's how Reg wanted it.

0:17:53 > 0:17:56Reg cared more about his public image than he did about me.

0:17:56 > 0:17:58Did that make you angry?

0:17:58 > 0:18:00It made me disappointed.

0:18:00 > 0:18:02Why weren't you at the party last night?

0:18:02 > 0:18:05I've already told your boss. I was ill!

0:18:05 > 0:18:08- And did you see Mr Foster after that?- No.

0:18:10 > 0:18:12Did you part on good terms?

0:18:12 > 0:18:13Yes. I...

0:18:15 > 0:18:18You're lying. What are you hiding?

0:18:18 > 0:18:20Nothing!

0:18:22 > 0:18:26You're looking flushed, Norma. Why don't you sit down for a minute?

0:18:26 > 0:18:28Take a couple of good breaths, eh?

0:18:29 > 0:18:31How long have you been feeling unwell?

0:18:31 > 0:18:34It's the shock. I'll be fine.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37Really?

0:18:38 > 0:18:41It's not the shock, though, is it?

0:18:42 > 0:18:46Nausea, flushes, slippery pulse?

0:18:47 > 0:18:53Old Chinese-medicine technique for diagnosing pregnancy.

0:18:54 > 0:18:57How far gone are you, Norma?

0:18:59 > 0:19:01A few months.

0:19:02 > 0:19:04Reg Foster's the father, isn't he?

0:19:07 > 0:19:09I told him just before the party.

0:19:09 > 0:19:11And how did he react?

0:19:11 > 0:19:16He just went quiet, and then he told Valerie.

0:19:18 > 0:19:21She accused me of trying to trap him into marriage,

0:19:21 > 0:19:25said he'd never marry the likes of me.

0:19:25 > 0:19:28I tried to talk to him, but she wouldn't let me near him.

0:19:28 > 0:19:30She just sent me home.

0:19:34 > 0:19:36Don't go anywhere.

0:19:36 > 0:19:39We might need to speak to you again.

0:19:39 > 0:19:42A woman scorned. Bit of a cliche, isn't it?

0:19:42 > 0:19:44Norma Emerson is ambitious and opportunistic.

0:19:44 > 0:19:46I wouldn't rule her out just yet.

0:19:46 > 0:19:49And I've requested Reg's medical records from his GP.

0:19:49 > 0:19:52There's something I want to check before we speak with Norma again.

0:19:52 > 0:19:55Mm. We didn't find anything incriminating

0:19:55 > 0:19:59at Lionel Young's place, but I managed to get you this.

0:19:59 > 0:20:02Excellent. I'll get that tested first thing.

0:20:02 > 0:20:04Ah, Ned.

0:20:04 > 0:20:07Here we go, Doc. Got these two.

0:20:07 > 0:20:10Oh, Ned, well done. I've left a few more at the charge counter as well.

0:20:10 > 0:20:12Have them all sent to the morgue for me, would you?

0:20:12 > 0:20:17Ah - and there's this, from the front of the Foster house.

0:20:17 > 0:20:20I hope you didn't waste a good drop.

0:20:20 > 0:20:22Which reminds me - having a bit of a lock-in with the boys.

0:20:22 > 0:20:24First day on the job and all that.

0:20:24 > 0:20:26- You'll be joining us?- Yes.

0:20:26 > 0:20:27Yes, I, um...

0:20:27 > 0:20:31- I'll just phone home first. - Right. Check with the boss.

0:20:31 > 0:20:34Oh, and, um, tell Charlie Davis to show his face.

0:20:34 > 0:20:36Ned tells me that he lives with you.

0:20:36 > 0:20:39I know he's on sick leave, but I would like to meet him.

0:20:40 > 0:20:42Right you are.

0:20:47 > 0:20:50To teamwork, and to solving this Reg Foster business quickly.

0:20:50 > 0:20:52- Cheers.- Hear, hear.

0:20:54 > 0:20:57So, Davis?

0:20:57 > 0:21:00Ah, yes. He's in Melbourne, visiting his mother.

0:21:00 > 0:21:02I think being stuck in a house on sick leave

0:21:02 > 0:21:04has been driving him slightly mad.

0:21:04 > 0:21:06That's all right. There's always next time.

0:21:06 > 0:21:09So the wife was OK with you staying out past your bedtime, then?

0:21:09 > 0:21:12Jean's not my wife.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15She's... Well, let's just say she...

0:21:16 > 0:21:18..she's a great support to me.

0:21:19 > 0:21:21I miss that.

0:21:21 > 0:21:25Miranda and I were together nearly 20 years. Met as teenagers.

0:21:25 > 0:21:27Took me a long time to get my act together.

0:21:27 > 0:21:31My one regret was not marrying her sooner.

0:21:34 > 0:21:35Right.

0:21:40 > 0:21:42Excuse me, Frank.

0:21:58 > 0:21:59Noel?

0:22:02 > 0:22:04Mind if I join you?

0:22:10 > 0:22:11Tough day, eh?

0:22:15 > 0:22:17Do you have anyone who can help you through this?

0:22:18 > 0:22:22Reg and I supported each other through everything.

0:22:26 > 0:22:29He was five when I was born.

0:22:30 > 0:22:36My earliest memory is Reg, always there,

0:22:36 > 0:22:38looking after me, protecting me.

0:22:39 > 0:22:42What about your sister, Valerie?

0:22:42 > 0:22:44- Mm, Valerie.- Are you close to her?

0:22:47 > 0:22:49Valerie's always been independent.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51Ah.

0:22:51 > 0:22:54She resented us, I suppose, how close we were.

0:22:54 > 0:22:59Reg and I would spend entire summers together

0:22:59 > 0:23:03in the parklands, out past Wendouree,

0:23:03 > 0:23:08building forts, playing soldiers and miners,

0:23:08 > 0:23:11panning for gold.

0:23:11 > 0:23:13We never found any.

0:23:13 > 0:23:18Is that where the inspiration came from for Goldrush Park?

0:23:18 > 0:23:23We just wanted to capture those golden days, that magic -

0:23:23 > 0:23:28unspoiled parkland, adventure, history, education.

0:23:28 > 0:23:30It would have made a wonderful legacy.

0:23:30 > 0:23:34No reason why it still can't happen.

0:23:34 > 0:23:36No. It's tainted now.

0:23:41 > 0:23:46I must get going soon. I have to make arrangements for the funeral.

0:23:48 > 0:23:49I am sorry, Noel.

0:23:51 > 0:23:53Have you got the time?

0:23:53 > 0:23:54Yes.

0:23:54 > 0:23:58I think it's time for one last round.

0:24:31 > 0:24:34'Are you sure about this?'

0:24:34 > 0:24:37I think so. Yes.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39It's all very sudden, Mattie.

0:24:39 > 0:24:43Well, you know that I love living here, Jean,

0:24:43 > 0:24:46but it's a job offer and it's an amazing opportunity

0:24:46 > 0:24:48and I have to take it.

0:24:48 > 0:24:50- And to do that... - You have to leave Ballarat.

0:24:50 > 0:24:54Oh, it's wonderful news, Mattie. Are you happy?

0:24:54 > 0:24:56I'm a little scared.

0:24:56 > 0:24:58THEY LAUGH

0:25:00 > 0:25:03And I want you to know that I'm really happy for you and Lucien.

0:25:03 > 0:25:06I don't know what you're talking about.

0:25:06 > 0:25:09Why? You deserve this. You both do.

0:25:34 > 0:25:38What did Lucien say when you told him the big news?

0:25:41 > 0:25:43You haven't told him.

0:25:43 > 0:25:44I don't know.

0:25:46 > 0:25:49- I don't want to disappoint him. - He'll be fine, Mattie. Trust me.

0:25:53 > 0:25:56Ah! Bacon and eggs?

0:25:56 > 0:25:59I expect you need a hearty breakfast after last night.

0:25:59 > 0:26:01I wasn't home that late, was I?

0:26:01 > 0:26:02It was after midnight when someone

0:26:02 > 0:26:04fell over the wheelbarrow and woke me up.

0:26:04 > 0:26:07- I'm sure that wasn't me.- And then dropped their keys in the hallway.

0:26:07 > 0:26:09That may have been me. JEAN LAUGHS

0:26:09 > 0:26:11Oh, Jean. You make it all sound so seedy.

0:26:11 > 0:26:15Last night... was a simple ceremonial gathering

0:26:15 > 0:26:17of the Ballarat Police Force and associated parties.

0:26:17 > 0:26:22Oh, and Charlie just rang, by the way. He's on a train now.

0:26:22 > 0:26:24Apparently, your new Chief Superintendent's

0:26:24 > 0:26:26given him the go-ahead to go back to work.

0:26:26 > 0:26:28I see.

0:26:28 > 0:26:31Well, he should be fine, as long as he's confined to his desk.

0:26:31 > 0:26:34- Good luck telling that to Charlie. - Yes.

0:26:34 > 0:26:36Eat.

0:26:36 > 0:26:38Now, when did you get back from Melbourne?

0:26:38 > 0:26:41Ah, last night. I've been spending some more time there.

0:26:41 > 0:26:43So I've heard.

0:26:43 > 0:26:45As long as you don't spend too much time away.

0:26:45 > 0:26:47The place feels very empty without you.

0:26:47 > 0:26:49Ah!

0:26:49 > 0:26:50These!

0:26:50 > 0:26:52These will be perfect.

0:26:53 > 0:26:56Jean's making jam. She's going to need those.

0:26:56 > 0:27:00And she'll get them back, if I don't break them first.

0:27:02 > 0:27:06We need to examine the diatoms in all these samples,

0:27:06 > 0:27:08see if we can find a match with the water in Reg's lungs.

0:27:08 > 0:27:10I can think of nothing better to do with my day.

0:27:12 > 0:27:14I've started with the ones from his house and office.

0:27:14 > 0:27:16They're the most likely.

0:27:16 > 0:27:19Reg Foster's medical records arrived.

0:27:19 > 0:27:21- They're on my desk. - PHONE RINGS

0:27:21 > 0:27:22- Right. - And his brother Noel's requested

0:27:22 > 0:27:24the body be released for burial.

0:27:24 > 0:27:26Fine by me.

0:27:26 > 0:27:30You'll have to check with the new Chief Superintendent.

0:27:30 > 0:27:31Dr Harvey.

0:27:35 > 0:27:37Speak of the devil.

0:27:37 > 0:27:39VEHICLE APPROACHES

0:27:47 > 0:27:52Miss Foster reported a break-in this morning - various personal effects

0:27:52 > 0:27:55are missing, presumed stolen, from Reg's bedroom.

0:27:55 > 0:27:58I told you she was after our money. That's all she cared about.

0:27:58 > 0:28:00I presume you're talking about Norma Emerson.

0:28:00 > 0:28:03Of course it's her. Who else would it be?

0:28:03 > 0:28:05I want her punished, and Reg's possessions recovered.

0:28:05 > 0:28:08Senior Sergeant Hobart?

0:28:08 > 0:28:10Would you mind escorting Miss Foster downstairs?

0:28:10 > 0:28:12I don't need an escort.

0:28:17 > 0:28:19What was taken?

0:28:19 > 0:28:23Antique fob watch, their deceased father's diamond cufflinks,

0:28:23 > 0:28:24several gold tiepins.

0:28:24 > 0:28:27- How did they get in? - There's no sign of forced entry.

0:28:27 > 0:28:29Valerie says she heard an intruder.

0:28:29 > 0:28:32She believes that Norma Emerson was given a key by Reg

0:28:32 > 0:28:36so she could pay him the occasional late-night visit.

0:28:36 > 0:28:38Right. I see.

0:28:38 > 0:28:43Well, we know she needs the money, what with the child on the way,

0:28:43 > 0:28:45and she did have it in for Valerie.

0:28:45 > 0:28:47Yes. I'll talk to her.

0:28:47 > 0:28:49Hobart can check the jewellery in pawn shops,

0:28:49 > 0:28:52see if anything turns up.

0:28:52 > 0:28:54Frank?

0:28:54 > 0:28:57I'd be happy to go on ahead to the jewellers', if you like.

0:28:57 > 0:29:00My, um... My watch needs repairing.

0:29:02 > 0:29:07Yes. I'm afraid I managed to get some water in the mechanism yesterday,

0:29:07 > 0:29:09and of course, it stopped.

0:29:09 > 0:29:11I'll take a look.

0:29:11 > 0:29:12As long as nothing rusted, you should be fine.

0:29:12 > 0:29:15Ah. Thank you, Sam.

0:29:15 > 0:29:17There was something else. Um...

0:29:17 > 0:29:22I'd like to have the size of this ring adjusted

0:29:22 > 0:29:25to match this one.

0:29:25 > 0:29:29Oh. This is beautiful workmanship.

0:29:29 > 0:29:31Yes. It's very precious to me.

0:29:31 > 0:29:32I'll take extra care of it.

0:29:32 > 0:29:35Much appreciated.

0:29:35 > 0:29:39Sam, tell me, do you purchase second-hand jewellery, by any chance?

0:29:39 > 0:29:41If it's good quality.

0:29:41 > 0:29:46Have you bought anything in the last, say, 24 hours?

0:29:46 > 0:29:48I'll check the logbook.

0:29:48 > 0:29:50Thank you so much.

0:29:57 > 0:29:59Norma Emerson hasn't shown up to work this morning.

0:29:59 > 0:30:02- Ah.- And she's not at home either.

0:30:02 > 0:30:04You checked the pawn shop?

0:30:04 > 0:30:06Nothing. Any luck here?

0:30:06 > 0:30:08He's just checking now.

0:30:20 > 0:30:22Sam won't be a moment.

0:30:22 > 0:30:24Now, let me see...

0:30:26 > 0:30:28Oi!

0:30:34 > 0:30:35Stick with him, Bill!

0:30:37 > 0:30:40Stop! Police!

0:30:41 > 0:30:43Get off me, you bloody mongrel!

0:30:54 > 0:30:55What a surprise.

0:30:55 > 0:31:00Ah - fob watch, cufflinks, tiepins.

0:31:00 > 0:31:02Reg's, I'd say.

0:31:02 > 0:31:05- What's your name? - None of your bloody business.

0:31:05 > 0:31:08Next time, I'll put you through the window. What's your name?

0:31:09 > 0:31:12Murray Butcher. He's a local labourer.

0:31:12 > 0:31:16We've seen him before for assault, disturbing the peace and vandalism.

0:31:16 > 0:31:19Right. What's his relationship with Norma Emerson?

0:31:19 > 0:31:21We're not sure, sir.

0:31:21 > 0:31:24Well, I think I might be able to shed some light on that.

0:31:24 > 0:31:27- What do you have there? - Reg Foster's medical history.

0:31:27 > 0:31:29- Confirms my suspicions. - Chief Superintendent.

0:31:29 > 0:31:33- I came as soon as I could. - Miss Foster, yes, thank you.

0:31:33 > 0:31:35Just wondering if you wouldn't mind taking a look at these.

0:31:40 > 0:31:42That's Reg's property.

0:31:43 > 0:31:47It was her, wasn't it - the gold-digger secretary?

0:31:47 > 0:31:49We have Norma Emerson and an associate in custody.

0:31:49 > 0:31:51They'll be questioned shortly.

0:31:51 > 0:31:54A man by the name of Murray Butcher. You heard of him?

0:31:55 > 0:31:58Bill, would you check on Miss Emerson?

0:31:58 > 0:32:00Make sure she's got some tea and biscuits.

0:32:00 > 0:32:02I thought this was a police station, not a hotel.

0:32:02 > 0:32:05Miss Emerson's pregnant.

0:32:05 > 0:32:07So she claims. Have you actually checked?

0:32:07 > 0:32:09She's liable to be making the whole thing up.

0:32:09 > 0:32:12If the doc says she's pregnant, I'll take his word for it.

0:32:12 > 0:32:17She's claiming the baby's Reg's,

0:32:17 > 0:32:20but you and I both know that's not possible, don't we, Valerie?

0:32:20 > 0:32:25Testicular atrophy, a side effect of mumps,

0:32:25 > 0:32:28something Reg contracted when he was a child.

0:32:28 > 0:32:30He was infertile.

0:32:34 > 0:32:37I won't ask you again, Murray. Sit down.

0:32:39 > 0:32:44I'm not talking till I know Norma's OK. All right?

0:32:49 > 0:32:50Last chance.

0:32:57 > 0:33:00'Did you have a grudge against Mr Foster,'

0:33:00 > 0:33:02is that why you stole from him?

0:33:06 > 0:33:10Miss Emerson, if you don't speak up, you'll be charged.

0:33:12 > 0:33:14I didn't hurt Reg.

0:33:14 > 0:33:17Well, why should we take your word for it?

0:33:17 > 0:33:20You've already lied about your baby's father.

0:33:20 > 0:33:23Yes.

0:33:23 > 0:33:25Reg Foster couldn't have children.

0:33:29 > 0:33:33Murray Butcher is the father of your baby, isn't he?

0:33:35 > 0:33:37Norma's obviously important to you.

0:33:40 > 0:33:42I promise you that she'll be well looked after.

0:33:42 > 0:33:45In fact, we've even got a doctor with her right now.

0:33:47 > 0:33:50So, you can do me a favour -

0:33:50 > 0:33:54tell me why you were trying to sell Mr Foster's stolen jewellery.

0:33:56 > 0:33:57Norma deserved it.

0:33:58 > 0:34:01- Compensation.- Right.

0:34:01 > 0:34:05- For what? - Putting up with a boss like that.

0:34:05 > 0:34:07He wouldn't leave her alone, mate. Kept trying it on.

0:34:07 > 0:34:09Hm.

0:34:09 > 0:34:14As if she'd be interested in someone like him.

0:34:14 > 0:34:17You wanted to get your hands on his money.

0:34:19 > 0:34:22It wasn't just money, though, was it?

0:34:22 > 0:34:28You wanted respect. Being on Reg Foster's arm, goodness me...

0:34:28 > 0:34:32That would have given you the status you've longed for.

0:34:34 > 0:34:38That cow Valerie was right all along.

0:34:38 > 0:34:41He was never serious about me.

0:34:41 > 0:34:44I was just a trinket.

0:34:48 > 0:34:51He'd never share his life with me.

0:34:51 > 0:34:58The pregnancy was your last-ditch attempt to change that, wasn't it?

0:35:00 > 0:35:02I'd have given him the best years of his life.

0:35:14 > 0:35:18Yeah, that's right - that's her perfume on Reg's pillow.

0:35:18 > 0:35:22You see, Norma told Reg that your baby was his.

0:35:22 > 0:35:24Why would she do that?

0:35:24 > 0:35:27She wanted more than you could offer, clearly.

0:35:28 > 0:35:31But do you really think she's worth your loyalty?

0:35:33 > 0:35:35Was the break-in her idea or yours?

0:35:38 > 0:35:40Did you go in together?

0:35:41 > 0:35:44I kept lookout while she went upstairs.

0:35:44 > 0:35:48And you were skipping town today, was that the plan?

0:35:48 > 0:35:53She wanted us to start a new life, together.

0:35:53 > 0:35:54Hm.

0:35:55 > 0:35:57So you had no idea about her relationship with Reg?

0:35:57 > 0:36:01She called him a dirty old man. We used to laugh about him.

0:36:03 > 0:36:06What, why? Is she laughing at me too?

0:36:10 > 0:36:13- She's a piece of work.- Yes.

0:36:13 > 0:36:15Do we have water samples from their houses?

0:36:15 > 0:36:17Yeah. Ned's collecting one from Butcher's place right now.

0:36:17 > 0:36:19- Good.- Is she in there?

0:36:19 > 0:36:21Norma, Norma!

0:36:25 > 0:36:27- Easy!- All right.

0:36:32 > 0:36:34Cuffs.

0:36:37 > 0:36:39You all right?

0:36:39 > 0:36:41Yeah.

0:36:49 > 0:36:52If we find a match with the water, I'll let you know.

0:36:52 > 0:36:54Also, if you're holding Norma overnight,

0:36:54 > 0:36:57let's at least make her comfortable, eh?

0:36:57 > 0:37:01- Good afternoon. - Ah, Miss Anderson. Photographs.

0:37:01 > 0:37:04Wonderful. Let's have a look, eh?

0:37:06 > 0:37:09You certainly have quite the eye.

0:37:09 > 0:37:11So can I have a statement?

0:37:11 > 0:37:13I've been doing some research on you, Miss Anderson.

0:37:13 > 0:37:16I really do enjoy your horoscopes.

0:37:17 > 0:37:19Why so evasive, Superintendent?

0:37:19 > 0:37:22Well, you may be Matthew Lawson's niece,

0:37:22 > 0:37:24but you're still a very junior reporter.

0:37:24 > 0:37:26Why are you so interested in this case?

0:37:26 > 0:37:29- What are you implying? - Nothing. I'm just curious.

0:37:31 > 0:37:34It might turn some heads at the paper, help me prove myself.

0:37:34 > 0:37:36I'll give you a statement, exclusively.

0:37:36 > 0:37:38- Really?- Yes.

0:37:38 > 0:37:41Once the case is closed, not before.

0:37:42 > 0:37:44And thank you for these.

0:37:50 > 0:37:54- Now, this was the last one? - From Lake Wendouree.

0:37:54 > 0:37:56And you're quite sure none of them are a match?

0:37:56 > 0:37:58See for yourself! I've checked them twice.

0:37:58 > 0:38:00KNOCK ON DOOR Yes?

0:38:01 > 0:38:04- Dr Blake?- Ned. Come in.

0:38:04 > 0:38:07This is from Murray Butcher's place.

0:38:07 > 0:38:09Ah, thank you.

0:38:09 > 0:38:13Now, this is from the house of a suspect we currently have in custody.

0:38:13 > 0:38:16Let's keep our bloody fingers crossed, shall we?

0:38:19 > 0:38:21Thank you, Alice.

0:38:23 > 0:38:24Now, with a bit of luck...

0:38:37 > 0:38:39No. They're not a match.

0:38:45 > 0:38:47- Lucien?- Mm?

0:38:47 > 0:38:50- My engagement ring... - What about it?

0:38:50 > 0:38:55Well, I was clearing out my jewellery box, and it's vanished.

0:38:55 > 0:38:57Oh, the old one.

0:38:57 > 0:39:00I've only got one, and I can't find it.

0:39:00 > 0:39:01I'm sure it'll turn up.

0:39:01 > 0:39:04Oh. That's a lot of help.

0:39:04 > 0:39:08Oh! What's going to happen to their park development now?

0:39:09 > 0:39:11I'm not sure.

0:39:11 > 0:39:15Jean, these photographs, do you notice anything unusual?

0:39:15 > 0:39:16No. Do you?

0:39:16 > 0:39:20Yes, something. I just can't quite put my finger on it.

0:39:20 > 0:39:23Be a shame if the park falls through.

0:39:23 > 0:39:27Sounded like Reg was doing something really worthwhile.

0:39:27 > 0:39:28The park...

0:39:28 > 0:39:31Be nice to have something new to do on the weekends.

0:39:31 > 0:39:34Jean, this photo here... Yes, this one.

0:39:34 > 0:39:38Now, this creek, this little stream -

0:39:38 > 0:39:41does it already exist?

0:39:41 > 0:39:43- No, not the way they show it here. - Oh.

0:39:43 > 0:39:46- Well, there was a stream at the back of the plot.- Yes?

0:39:46 > 0:39:49I used to pick blackberries there when I was a girl.

0:39:49 > 0:39:52Well, maybe they're planning on redirecting it.

0:39:55 > 0:39:57You are a gem.

0:40:00 > 0:40:02Oh, Mattie! I didn't see you there.

0:40:02 > 0:40:04Lucien, I needed to talk to you about...

0:40:04 > 0:40:07I am so sorry. I'm right in the middle of something.

0:40:07 > 0:40:08Of course.

0:40:25 > 0:40:27What kept you?

0:40:29 > 0:40:32I checked the ordnance survey map. What about you?

0:40:32 > 0:40:34I spoke to Jean.

0:40:36 > 0:40:40So, will you do the honours or shall I?

0:40:50 > 0:40:52So, what's that thing telling us?

0:40:52 > 0:40:53Well, this...

0:40:53 > 0:40:55Here - have a look.

0:40:55 > 0:40:59This slide is the water sample we just took from the stream.

0:40:59 > 0:41:04- Right. - Now, bear with me one second.

0:41:04 > 0:41:08This one is the water we found in Reg's lungs. Have a look at that.

0:41:11 > 0:41:13Well, they look the same to me.

0:41:13 > 0:41:14Exactly.

0:41:14 > 0:41:18Reg Foster was drowned in that stream.

0:41:18 > 0:41:21Which was Council land.

0:41:21 > 0:41:23BELL CHIMES

0:41:23 > 0:41:25You had motive, you threatened the victim,

0:41:25 > 0:41:28plus you have a professional connection to the murder site.

0:41:28 > 0:41:32Lionel, look at me.

0:41:32 > 0:41:35Start telling me what you know, now.

0:41:35 > 0:41:37I'll be ruined.

0:41:40 > 0:41:43You're a sensitive man. I can see that.

0:41:44 > 0:41:47Whatever's happened is obviously taking its toll.

0:41:47 > 0:41:49Don't you want to get that off your chest?

0:41:51 > 0:41:53- Lionel?- All right, all right.

0:41:59 > 0:42:02After I left the Fosters' offices that night,

0:42:02 > 0:42:05I got a phone call from Reg.

0:42:05 > 0:42:09He said he had money for me if I stopped causing trouble.

0:42:09 > 0:42:11So he offered you a bribe?

0:42:11 > 0:42:15He wanted to pay me to stop hassling Valerie

0:42:15 > 0:42:17and to keep my mouth shut

0:42:17 > 0:42:19about pushing the Council approval through.

0:42:19 > 0:42:21What did you say?

0:42:26 > 0:42:28I told him to up the offer.

0:42:30 > 0:42:32Did he?

0:42:34 > 0:42:37He told me to meet him at the development site.

0:42:40 > 0:42:43- So you went?- Yeah, just after ten.

0:42:46 > 0:42:49Got out of my car, I walked over...

0:42:52 > 0:42:54..and I took the money.

0:42:58 > 0:43:01I've never taken a bribe before, I swear.

0:43:01 > 0:43:05Please don't tell the Council. I didn't even spend the money.

0:43:05 > 0:43:08I didn't know what to do with it. I was just angry.

0:43:09 > 0:43:11Lionel...

0:43:13 > 0:43:16..are you saying Reg Foster was alive the last time you saw him?

0:43:16 > 0:43:20Yes. I got in my car and I saw them leave.

0:43:22 > 0:43:24Them?

0:43:24 > 0:43:28You lied to us. You did see Reg after the party.

0:43:28 > 0:43:32What happened with Lionel was a private business transaction

0:43:32 > 0:43:34that had no bearing on your investigation.

0:43:34 > 0:43:38Well, that transaction puts you with Reg near the site of the murder

0:43:38 > 0:43:42and confirms you were probably the last person to see him alive.

0:43:43 > 0:43:46I have nothing else to hide.

0:43:54 > 0:43:57Tell us about the councilman, Lionel.

0:44:00 > 0:44:03It suited my purposes to make him think we were involved.

0:44:03 > 0:44:06So it was your idea to pay off Lionel?

0:44:06 > 0:44:07Everything was my idea.

0:44:07 > 0:44:10- Did I get the credit for it? No.- Mm.

0:44:10 > 0:44:12You're talking about the park development.

0:44:14 > 0:44:17Reg had no vision.

0:44:17 > 0:44:20He would have been happy with a rotunda.

0:44:20 > 0:44:23I gave it scale and ambition.

0:44:23 > 0:44:25'There's a theme park in California.

0:44:25 > 0:44:28'That's where the inspiration came from, not from Reg.

0:44:28 > 0:44:32'He stood up at that party, taking all the glory.

0:44:32 > 0:44:34'Barely even mentioned me.'

0:44:35 > 0:44:39It was all about the brothers. It was always about the brothers.

0:44:47 > 0:44:49You struck gold.

0:44:49 > 0:44:51Yes, I think I have.

0:44:51 > 0:44:56The only reason I exist is because my father wanted a second son.

0:44:56 > 0:44:58I was only ever a disappointment.

0:44:58 > 0:45:04If you resented your brothers, why would you come back and help?

0:45:04 > 0:45:06I didn't come back to help.

0:45:34 > 0:45:38Charlie, Reg Foster's secretary - is she still in custody?

0:45:38 > 0:45:40Yeah. She's being charged this morning.

0:45:40 > 0:45:41I need her office keys.

0:45:41 > 0:45:43- What for?- A theory.

0:46:09 > 0:46:11All right, let's hear it, then.

0:46:11 > 0:46:17Ah, Frank. The Foster house and offices - thoroughly searched?

0:46:17 > 0:46:20Yes, of course they were. Why?

0:46:20 > 0:46:23Look here. I found that in the stream.

0:46:23 > 0:46:25It matches the lettering on the Goldrush Park model,

0:46:25 > 0:46:29except the model's intact.

0:46:29 > 0:46:30How is that possible?

0:46:30 > 0:46:33In my opinion, there's a second model.

0:46:33 > 0:46:35So where is it?

0:46:37 > 0:46:40Reg Foster's car - where is it?

0:46:40 > 0:46:43It's out the back. We impounded it since we found it at the pool.

0:46:58 > 0:47:02Miss Foster, tell us - why is there a second diorama?

0:47:02 > 0:47:05That's the development as I envisaged it.

0:47:05 > 0:47:09Open spaces and history lectures? Families today need escapism.

0:47:09 > 0:47:13They want to forget their troubles and have fun.

0:47:14 > 0:47:16What did Reg think about that?

0:47:16 > 0:47:20When I showed him how successful amusement parks were in America,

0:47:20 > 0:47:23he agreed, he was completely on board.

0:47:24 > 0:47:29Then why sell this version to the press and the public?

0:47:29 > 0:47:31We knew we'd meet with resistance.

0:47:31 > 0:47:36We wanted to start work before we publicly announced the revisions.

0:47:36 > 0:47:38And who knew about this plan?

0:47:38 > 0:47:40Just us.

0:47:40 > 0:47:42The Foster family?

0:47:42 > 0:47:44No - Reg and me.

0:47:44 > 0:47:47Well, why wasn't Noel involved?

0:47:48 > 0:47:52Reg wanted to tell him, but I insisted we wait.

0:47:52 > 0:47:55Noel's no visionary.

0:47:55 > 0:47:59He wanted the park to reflect the way things used to be 40 years ago.

0:48:02 > 0:48:05All he ever wants to do is live in the past.

0:48:19 > 0:48:21The funeral's tomorrow.

0:48:23 > 0:48:26Just wanted to be with him.

0:48:27 > 0:48:30One last night together, like the old days.

0:48:32 > 0:48:36They mean everything to you, don't they, those golden days?

0:48:38 > 0:48:40There's no harm in sentimentality.

0:48:40 > 0:48:42There is when it ends like this.

0:48:45 > 0:48:46What time is it, Noel?

0:48:48 > 0:48:49I'm not sure.

0:48:49 > 0:48:52You asked me that very question in the pub that night,

0:48:52 > 0:48:57which was odd, because you own a watch identical to Reg's.

0:48:59 > 0:49:02For someone so attached to the past,

0:49:02 > 0:49:05it seems strange you're no longer wearing it.

0:49:06 > 0:49:09Your watch stopped too, didn't it?

0:49:09 > 0:49:12And you were going to bury both watches with your brother.

0:49:14 > 0:49:16I don't know what you mean.

0:49:25 > 0:49:26Ah, Noel.

0:49:28 > 0:49:32You can bury the evidence, it won't relieve the guilt.

0:49:33 > 0:49:37He told you the truth about the park, didn't he?

0:49:37 > 0:49:39He... He telephoned me.

0:49:39 > 0:49:41He said, uh...

0:49:42 > 0:49:46He said he wanted to meet me down by the stream.

0:49:46 > 0:49:47He had something to show me.

0:49:47 > 0:49:49The second diorama.

0:49:49 > 0:49:51'He said he felt guilty.'

0:49:51 > 0:49:55He insisted it was Valerie's idea, but he wanted it.

0:49:55 > 0:49:57He agreed with her.

0:49:57 > 0:50:03I tried to talk sense into him but he just wouldn't change his mind.

0:50:03 > 0:50:06'And we fought, and I lashed out.'

0:50:07 > 0:50:12The best years of our lives, razed to the ground for what?

0:50:12 > 0:50:17For this cheap, gaudy funfair, for more money?

0:50:19 > 0:50:21How could that be our legacy?

0:50:28 > 0:50:30The tree was the final straw, wasn't it?

0:50:43 > 0:50:4840 years of memories, and he was going to knock it down

0:50:48 > 0:50:50like it was nothing.

0:50:50 > 0:50:55Next thing I knew, I was holding his head under water.

0:50:58 > 0:51:01I was angry. I was just so angry,

0:51:01 > 0:51:04and I wanted to shake some sense into him.

0:51:08 > 0:51:10Then he stopped moving.

0:51:10 > 0:51:13So you took him to the pool.

0:51:13 > 0:51:15You changed him.

0:51:16 > 0:51:19You put him in the water.

0:51:19 > 0:51:21You left some fresh clothes from his car in the locker,

0:51:21 > 0:51:25but you didn't fold them like Reg would have.

0:51:27 > 0:51:31I walked all the way back to the park to collect the car.

0:51:32 > 0:51:36I can barely even remember doing it.

0:51:38 > 0:51:42Part of me hoped that it was just a bad dream,

0:51:42 > 0:51:45that he wouldn't be there, and then...

0:51:46 > 0:51:48..I saw him...

0:51:50 > 0:51:54..and realised what I'd done to my own brother.

0:52:02 > 0:52:05You'll have to come with us now, Mr Foster.

0:52:48 > 0:52:50Jean!

0:52:51 > 0:52:53They're mine, Lucien.

0:52:56 > 0:53:01It was never really the right moment, and now I'm going.

0:53:04 > 0:53:06You're leaving Ballarat?

0:53:06 > 0:53:09For work, for an amazing job.

0:53:10 > 0:53:13Well, that's wonderful news, Mattie!

0:53:13 > 0:53:16And, of course, Melbourne's only a train ride away.

0:53:16 > 0:53:19Well, actually...it's in London.

0:53:20 > 0:53:22I have a placement at St Bart's.

0:53:22 > 0:53:25You always spoke so highly of it,

0:53:25 > 0:53:27and I've always dreamt of working there.

0:53:28 > 0:53:30Right.

0:53:31 > 0:53:34Well, they're very lucky to have you.

0:53:36 > 0:53:38I don't want to go.

0:53:40 > 0:53:43I never thought I would leave this place.

0:53:45 > 0:53:48We have to follow our hearts, don't we?

0:53:58 > 0:54:00I'm going to miss you, you know.

0:54:02 > 0:54:03We're ever so proud of you.

0:54:05 > 0:54:08We'll always be proud of you, Mattie.

0:54:10 > 0:54:11Come here.

0:54:14 > 0:54:15Ah...

0:54:16 > 0:54:18All right, then. Off you go.

0:54:48 > 0:54:50Lucien!

0:54:52 > 0:54:53Dinner's on the table.

0:54:53 > 0:54:55Ah! Lovely. Thank you, Jean.

0:54:57 > 0:55:02- Do you think she'll be all right? - Yes. Yes, she'll be fine. She's...

0:55:02 > 0:55:05She's got a big heart and even bigger dreams.

0:55:05 > 0:55:08I wonder who she picked that up from.

0:55:08 > 0:55:11Oh - I found that ring.

0:55:11 > 0:55:14It was on the floor, near the dresser.

0:55:16 > 0:55:18Oh.

0:55:18 > 0:55:20That IS a relief.
