Downriver

Just take a seat, Dana.

- Hey, buddy. - Hey.

Just when you're ready.

Dana: Have they given you a date yet?

Not yet.

I heard it's soon. What are you going to do?

He can't say...

..Where he's going, who he's with, what he's doing,

anything like that.

I suggest you ask what you came to ask.

Dana: Where is he?

James: When I left, he was in the water.

Dana: Did you push him out?

James: No.

Dana: How deep was he, over his head?

James: Not real deep.

Dana: We've had divers search right up and down there.

James: It's not far from the sea there.

Dana: But you didn't push him out?

James: I never lied.

Dana: This doctor is saying your epilepsy's

made you forget things - it's not true, is it?

Did you weigh him down...

..Or did you take him to the bushes?

James: It wasn't just me there.

Dana: I don't have him, do I?

So you wouldn't forget pushing him out?

It's killing me.

I can't keep looking.

I'm the only one that still is.

James: The police should have found him.

Dana: They didn't need to. They had you.

He was the front page of all the papers

when he went missing,

and now no-one even remembers his name.

You hid him. You had to.

Did you mutilate him, did you do something sexual to my son?

Rita: Dana... - Did you?

Rita: You know what we agreed on.

Dana: I went to sleep for a half an hour,

and my son is gone.

I don't believe you.

I don't believe you.

Until I find him, he's still just missing.

Man: Four bucks, Anthony.

Didn't you get the photo I sent you?

I'm not giving you freebies no more.

Why don't you just take it off what you owe me?

And sign here.

Rita: Anthony and his family

have taken out an intervention order.

You can't contact him or go within a 5km radius of them.

James: Witness to crime.

Rita: Witnesses get notified of parole.

They can ask to be protected.

Bullshit.

Good.

Now, you'll be sick of the sound of my voice

every 24 hours for a month,

and then you report every 72 after that.

Zero tolerance. Same goes for violence.

Any whiff of violence and a magistrate may revoke parole.

You're a fisticuffs fan. Don't do it.

We've got you in a halfway house.

You've got your own room.

Do you want these?

Books and magazines.

I don't need them.

Worth getting sprung tonight?

Ok for you, you're gone tomorrow.

Bet I get some motherfucker in here.

Don't do that.

Night-time's when you get all negative.

Ok, maybe worth it.

James: He still lives there.

Cellmate: What do you think he's like now?

A coward.

Don't say goodbye.

Yes, mum. Yes.

(Music grows louder, someone hitting a punching bag)

Don't you eat egg anymore?

I hate it, and onion.

'The lot' means 'egg and onion'.

They're stingy on the sauce.

How long have you guys been going out?

We're just friends.

What does he do?

He drives a truck.

Cool.

You heard from dad?

A few weeks back.

What did he say?

He said that if you needed anything, he'd help.

Does he have a spare room?

He meant money.

Your place is pretty big. You said you had no room.

It's not about having no room.

Why are you looking at me?

You know, at lunch,

if someone was looking at me, I'd be like...

A guy got stabbed in the mouth the other day.

Tried to get him in the neck, but he missed.

It's too easy for people to find me.

It's happened before - reporters and, you know,

people connected with family.

This is for your own good.

Here, I'll pay until you start earning.

I don't want you forgetting to report.

Paige: What did you do today?

James: Not much.

What about tomorrow, you going to do something?

(A young man and a woman argue)

Man: Nads, for fuck's sake!

Why do you always want to play with my bloody stuff?

- Five seconds of peace! - Leave it the fuck alone!

- Damien! - Mum!

This is my fucking iPad. Fuck you!

I said, it's hot, hey?

Can I ask you something?

Do you know a guy called Anthony?

A dark-haired guy.

He lives up the mountain road

but cuts through here sometimes.

I hate everyone.

Alright.

Can I have a packet of silvers?

And our power's not on.

- Which plot? - It's 33.

You pay your day rate, and that gets your mains on.

Alright, just give me a day.

- Can I see some ID? - I don't have any.

I need to know who's on the grounds.

Well, how much is a day?

22 bucks.

Well, I'll just have a day, then.

I'll need a photocopy of your ID.

It's my family's cabin.

Who is Paige Levy? Levi?

What does it matter?

Ah, $12.50, love.

- There you go. - Thanks, mate.

I'll just pay for the smokes.

I don't need the fucking power.

Hi. Sorry, I can't take your call at the moment.

Please leave a message.

Yeah, Paige? This is Gary from crystal brook holiday park.

I think I might have your son in your cabin.

He hasn't checked in properly.

My sister's boy.

Alright.

Humans do not know

there are other life forms in the universe.

There is only one rule -

never go out without morphing into human form.

What happened to your eye, your scar?

I, um, hit my head when I was a kid.

On purpose?

No, I have epilepsy. I had a fit.

That was a joke!

I'm scarred.

Mum went totally psycho and pushed me into a door.

Now my chin's uneven.

* classical symphony

bump there. See?

- Feel it? - (Laughs)

Nadia: Turn that off! I can't hear.

Damien: Well, bloody turn your telly up!

Whatever.

Hey, how come nobody's used that cabin

the whole time we've been coming?

It's one of the ghost cabins.

Were you here then, when that boy drowned?

- Were you? - No.

The rumor is, the kid who did it lived in your cabin.

The kid who died was my brother.

Shit.

Sorry.

We come and look sometimes.

This is a good one, it's a good one.

- He can go first. - Oh, passing! Well.

Ok. Um...

- She's confident. - Ten diamonds.

James: No, it's a black card.

- Ok. - Four spades.

- No, it's a club. - Oh.

- Ten clubs. James: Lower than ten clubs.

Um, six clubs.

Higher than six clubs.

- Eight clubs. - Lower than eight clubs.

So I'm going to pass it to your sister right now.

- Seven clubs. - Yeah!

Do we hug?

Ok!

It's going to be like that?

You approached me.

You know you'll get recognized?

I don't look ten anymore.

I knew you straight off.

You would.
