Black Sheep

Henry, we've got a bolter.

- Henry, Tucker, go get it. -

Get down! Hold him!

Hold him. Hold him.

- Good boy. Get down.

- Get down. -

Hold him. That's it.

Good on you, boy.

Henry had a little lamb.

lts fleece was white as snow.

And everywhere that Dudley went...

..Henry was sure to go.

Mrs Mac, they're coming down for lunch soon.

Rightio, Henry.

Dudley?

Dudley? Where are you, boy?

Dudley?

Dudley?

Dudley.

Dudley. Come out of there, Dudley.

Arggh!

- Uh, arggh! -

- -

Boys!

Angus, pull your head in.

- Henry. -

Boys...

lt's your father.

There's been an accident.

City boy, eh?

- No. I grew up on a farm. - Oh, me too.

- Oh... - You alright, my friend?

- Need some fresh air? - Close it. Close it!

Dr Kerry's office.

lt's Henry Oldfield. l need to speak with her.

She's in a session right now. Can I have her call you?

Please, please.

DRlVER: Nothing like it, eh?

God's green earth, all creatures great and small.

Alright, here we go.

- OK. - This way!

This isn't going to be like the salmon farm, is it, Grant?

Hey, those fish died free.

- Come on, possum. - Shh, shh.

What's that?

Angus fucking Oldfield.

Ahh.

You'll wait for me, right?

lt's your money.

Hello?

Unless you fancy nostrils in the back of your head,

l'd not be moving if I were you.

Mrs Mac.

Bugger me days! Henry!

Oh, oh, oh!

Oh. Oh.

Oh, don't worry. I haven't shot anyone since Christmas.

Oh, just wait until your brother sees you.

Yeah.

The Merino, the Romney, the Drysdale -

these names are whispered in the winds

that caress the rugged hills.

These names are shared in corners of the farmyard,

and these are the names that young men in the land recite

as they take themselves off at night.

But in the future, they will whisperjust one name.

The Oldfield.

Now you take it down and lead it round in front of the guests.

That's it. Stop.

They can touch it, slap a flank, feel the wool.

l'll take the other microphone, give it to anyone else who...

..has a question.

Get a prospectus on every seat and go up the hill and get the animal.

What are you doing here?

The lawyers have this under control, don't they?

What am I doing here?

Our family's been here for over a hundred years.

Our father was born here!

Our mother died giving birth to me here.

This is where I spent the first 10 years of my life!

And my therapist said I should come.

Therapy?

So you're still funny about the sheep.

lt's not about the sheep. It's about other issues I need to resolve.

OK.

Maa!

Angus!

Come inside. I'll cut you a cheque.

That must be the laboratory.

Careful! - There you go.

Astrid Rush.

Who'd hire her after that thing with the leeches?

- Your end? - Come and give a hand here.

ASTRlD: Careful!

Grant!

Shit.

Yeah, baby. Yeah!

- Go after him! - Oh!

Oi!

- Whoo! Hey, wait!

Grant!

lt's alright. They'll never catch us. They're meat-eaters.

OK. What was 'one', Grant?

What? Um, "Get in unobserved."

Right, and what was 'two'? "Collect visual evidence."

Right. 'Three'?

"Get out unobserved"?

Yeah. And 'four'?

"Blow this whole fucking game wide open.

"Take the bastards under and go down in history

"as the two people with enough balls to save this country

"from genetically engineered devastation."

No, Grant. Four was, "Have a meeting about what to do next."

This is evidence, OK? lt's evidence.

Actually, that's probably highly toxic genetic material.

Fuckin' A!

Fuckin' A! And it's mine.

lt's ours. You and me, baby, all the way.

Yeah, Grant, about the "you and me" bit.

Now, I wonder if our relationship isn't kind of...

Shh!

He's around here somewhere.

- Go! - Grant, wait!

There he goes!

Oi!

Over there!

Where is he?

Bugger!

Oh, fuck.

Arggh!

Arggh!

Right.

That's for me and that's for you.

That'll buy you a lot of therapy.

Well, there's not much around here

in the way of your cappuccino culture.

But I'm sure Mrs Mac will do you a cup of tea

and an Anzac biscuit for the road.

That's it, then.

You got rid of all Dad's things.

Living in the past.

That's what's wrong with these bloody farmers.

You're now the owner of the biggest farm in the district.

What does that make you?

Up here's where the smart farming's done these days, Henry.

ls that what all that outside's in aid of?

People are interested in what l'm doing here, Henry.

lt's a whole new approach to farming.

lt's better for the animals, better for the farmers,

better for the consumer.

lt's an exciting time to be in the agricultural sciences.

And a profitable one.

More tea, Henry?

l think three's enough. l should get going.

That's a pity. You'll miss my rabbit pie.

And l'm making watercress for the Japanese.

Look - chopsticks.

He's quite the lord of the manor now, isn't he?

Uh, Angus was throwing this away.

l know your father would've wanted you to have it.

The Golden Shears.

Best shearer in the country, three years running.

Your father said you were a natural too.

l...l really can't see it on my coffee table.

You got what you came for, then?

Angus has got his deal.

Guess l'm done here.

l'm having the farm manager take you for a run up to the top.

But I haven't been up there since the accident.

l know. That's why you're going.

Oh, here he is now.

Kia ora, Aunty.

Tucker.

Flash threads, bro. So, you a model now or something?

l'm doing l.T. lnternet stuff.

Oh. Nude modelling.

And you're manager now.

Well, your brother's hardly Young Farmer of the Year, is he?

Angus seems to think he's got a handle on things.

Look, the only thing he's got a handle on is his...

OK, farm boy, let's see your stuff.

Sure. OK.

Come on.

Yah!

What happened to you, darling?

Give us a hand, bro.

l...l just need to make a phone call.

Jesus, man. Just gonna shove her back over the fence.
