Riot

No, don't. It's nearly there, just...

No, no, no!

Over and over

Time and time again

You can't be nobody's lover

You can't be nobody's lover

Till you're somebody's friend

Ooo-ooo

Over and over

Time and time again

Over and over and over

Time and time again

You can't be nobody's...

G'day, Lance.

You can't be nobody's lover

Let's get this party started!

You comin' for a beer, Lance?

Nah, mate, I gotta get home.

Jeez, mate, she keeps you on a short leash.

Yeah. Cheers.

Got a light?

I don't smoke.

Neither do I.

Hey... It's okay.

All right, boys. Jesus Christ.

Stop! Quick, run!

It's the pigs! Run!

No, no, no! Please don't!

Where're you goin', fairy? -(GRUNTING)

Move fast!

Yeah, oi! Stay down, ya little prick!

Come on!

Hey, Agostini!

Come and take your boyfriend for a walk.

Get up. Get up!

Come on, move!

Move!

-Bet your dad's proud of ya. -Shut up!

Bruce. -Lance.

Toby.

Slide over, comrade.

First time arrested?

Mmm.

So I'm arm-in-arm with these doe-eyed

Palestinian activists, and being Arabs,

they're completely relaxed with hand-holding and cheek kissing and...

Yeah, they sorta do that, don't they?

Yeah, and I'm 27, you know, and never been...

-Bullshit. -(CHUCKLING) No, really, really.

I was a late starter.

Um, anyway, where was I?

Deir al-Asad.

Right. So then I went to America

and I went to the Freedom Rides and the March on Washington,

and I was with a quarter of a million people

-at the Lincoln Memorial... -Martin Luther King?

Yeah, the very one, when he spoke the immortal words...

Fuckin' shut up, Lance.

We're tryin' to sleep.

Hey.

What's the matter?

Your family don't know?

You worried you'll lose your job?

No, it's not that.

Hey, if I can survive working at Quarantine

with a bunch of wharfies, you'll be fine.

They probably won't even charge us.

Smashing up a beat is just sport to them.

The charges are boring paperwork...

I don't give a shit about the charges.

I'm just so fucking lonely.

Oh.

I'm an idiot.

-I'm an idiot. I'm so sorry. -No, you're not.

-No, you're not, you're beautiful. -(SNIFFLING)

-Sorry. -You're beautiful.

Bruce is an idiot.

Actually, I'm getting used to this.

-Are you? -I can stay another night.

Yeah. (CHUCKLES)

-Nice to meet you, Ron. -Nice to meet you too, Lance.

So, you, you live in the Gay Liberation commune?

Yeah, so Gay Liberation are your anarchists and agitators.

-Right. -We live communally.

We share everything.

-Everything? -Yeah, crabs, mainly.

And this is CAMP. The Campaign Against Moral Persecution.

It's basically a social gathering.

Everyone's a bit more polite and well-behaved.

-Well, it's ridiculous. -It's fucking typical.

Do you not think that we deserve to be represented, too?

I'm not saying that. I...

This is where we do our meetings.

And if you want to chair a meeting, you sit there, or we sit around the table.

And this is where we generally hang out.

Pop down there.

Get into the thick of it. Go on.

-Don't be scared. That's not the point, Peter.

Oh, so you're cooperating in making lesbians invisible.

Invisible lesbians? What's that, the magic act for the next CAMP social?

Oh, for heaven's sake. Fuck off.

Peter and I...

Peter and I are going on Chequerboard.

The ABC are doing a program about a homosexual couple.

Oh, spare me. If the bloody ABC's the hope of the left, we're in trouble.

And what's that? A stable, committed homosexual couple

shown on national TV living a normal life?

Yeah, playing happy families to reassure straights we don't threaten

-traditional marriage... -Who's this joker?

I'm Lance Gowland. I'm the provisional wing.

Oh, well, I'm glad you spoke. Now I can tell

your mouth from your arsehole.

Who's that?

I'm Ron.

And Martin Luther King stood there on the steps

of the Lincoln Memorial and said, uh...

-"I have a dream." -Wow.

Hey, I don't want you to think that this is the entire movement, Marg.

It's a bit of a... CAMP's a bit of a knitting circle.

Oh, well, you know I'm quite partial

to a little bit of women's crafts myself, Lance.

No, Robbie and I are just coming here to meet some other lesbians.

Robbie? Is she the stunner in the green...

Hey, just 'cause you're a poofter

doesn't mean you can comment on a woman's looks.

Oh, bloody Sue's gonna be recruiting her.

She'll be getting her into rape and abortion. Not even lesbian issues.

But there's many ways to smash a patriarchy, Lance,

and I think that most women actually prefer to do it

without the aggravation of gay blokes who don't recognize their own privilege.

Oh, don't waste your time here, Marg.

We need women like you in Gay Lib.

-What, pashing on buses? -Yes.

-Swearing at police? -Yeah.

No, no, thank you, I've got a job.

I've got two kids. I got something to lose.

Well, if you're not prepared to lose it all,

you'll never change anything.

Hey, Sue has invited us

to paint banners for the abortion demo tomorrow.

Ah. You could hold a banner.

-No, I'm busy tomorrow. -Mmm.

Right.

-Lovely meeting you, Lance. -Yes, you, too, Marg.

-Hi. -Hi.

-How's she doing? -She had a better night.

-That's a good sign. -Yeah.

How're the boys?

They miss you.

Hello, darling.

How's the drive? Do you need some money for petrol?

I'm managing.

Dr. Glasson will be here soon.

Do you think Jesus Christ Superstar is blasphemous?

We haven't seen it, but we'll, have to get, um...

You really should. Oh, Peter.

You must insist he takes you.

On my salary?

I could take him, I suppose.

Rector, I think we might be underpaying Bon.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.

You have a interesting interpretation of Saint Paul.

Very modern.

Well, times are changing, Peter. We've got to change with them.

-Hear, hear. Yes, well, actually, um...

Peter and I have been invited to appear on Chequerboard.

On the ABC? How wonderful!

Hughie and I watch it religiously.

We do.

Ah, so, Rector.

Do you think Jesus Christ Superstar is blasphemous?

Mmm. Jenny, I'd watch Marcia Hines sing the phone book.

You heard it here first. -(JENNY CHUCKLES)

-Afternoon. -Lancelot.

We're gonna do a zap on the 433.

-Ah. -Come with us.

-No. No, not today. -Come on!

If two guys kissing on the bus upsets them, imagine three.

Challenge the patriarchy...

-And reject monogamy. -And reject monogamy.

You boys have fun.

You wouldn't have a few spare coins for bus fare, would you?

I'm moving out.

Oh, we'll miss you.

You visit me?

Where?

Robert Menzies College.

Oh, dear God, comrade.

Into the jaws of the enemy.

Well, can you put Norma back on?
