Grace

Sir? Oh, no.

No, thank you, dear.

Sir? Thank you.

Ah, here she is. Eden?

The next block is going up right now.

We're pouring in the concrete for the foundations this week.

How are you doing?

Well, it's a big night, isn't it?

Where's Neel?

He's here somewhere. We...

Do you want a beer? Er, no.

Are you sure? Yeah, do you want one?

Cheeky.

Just, er...

Just give me one second, darling.

I'll be back. OK.

Not here.

Do you know who that guy is?

Well, I don't remember sending you an invitation.

Oh, I hear things.

Look, this is just extortion now. No. You owe me.

Look, we've just put them up for sale, OK? There is no money.

Maybe I should think of a way to make you try harder.

You're a lucky man, Neel.

Yeah, I was speaking to her, actually.

Basically, erm...

And he wasn't sure...

You shouldn't be here. Sorry.

That's not your call, though, is it?

I told you I wanted her gone.

Hey! Hey! Behave yourself.

You're an embarrassment.

Don't be stupid, now. Stop behaving like that.

You can't be in here!

What are you doing, eh?

I saw you try to hit him.

This has nothing to do with you, Jayden.

Yes, it does.

He's my dad, and you can't treat him that way,

not if you know what is good for you!

Move out of my way.

Who were those guys?

I'm on it, OK? Your big bro CAN handle himself.

Hmm.

I'm going home. Hey.

You're not going anywhere.

I'm sure you'll manage without me.

Hm!

Go.

You should know by now, you should know,

you never show me up like that in public!

I said I'm sorry, didn't I?

Are you listening to me? Huh? Neel, I said I'm sorry!

Not ever!

Who puts the food on the table, huh?

Who bought you this beautiful house? Get down!

Please, leave me alone.

Never a word of gratitude out of your stupid mouth.

You're just trouble.

You should just learn to shut up and smile.

No, no, no, no, you're right, you're right.

No, you wanna teach me how to run my life.

'Hi, it's Eden. Please leave a message.'

For years, you made me sick.

Oh, you look so smart. I don't like it.

It itches, and... I don't see why I can't just stay home.

Well, you'll be fine.

First day's always hard.

Before you know it, you'll have loads of friends.

Is that the wedding outfit?

Oh, yeah. Erm, did you get that message about the flowers?

Look, it's... it's OK to feel nervous.

You've just got to find your clan.

Cool kid, geek, rebel...

Which one were you? Geek?

Harsh, but fair.

I have to go, but...

..you're gonna be great today, OK?

See you later.

Oh. No peeping. OK.

I'm afraid it's not good news.

Lauren Packham has refused to testify

in the case against Roel Albazi.

Albazi kidnapped her. He beat her. He threatened her family.

This is her only chance to put him away.

And it's our best shot at the case.

Look, are we sure someone didn't get to Lauren?

We can't rule it out.

The Benchdale OCG have intimidated witnesses before.

And it is possible, given her partner's murder,

that Lauren fears similar repercussions.

OK. So... So what are our options?

At this stage,

to force her to testify is considered too much of a risk.

She is vulnerable, and if she becomes hostile,

she could blow the rest of the case.

OK. So, what about the rest of the evidence?

The surveillance shots, the phone records?

We can use these to tie Albazi to Benchdale.

But they're not enough to convince a judge

he played a major role in the OCG.

Right, so, without Lauren Packham,

we have no kidnap charge, and without that...

Roel Albazi is unlikely to serve significant time.

'Neel?'

Neel?

Oh, Jesus Christ.

Why are you in the car?

Yeah, I don't really...

What do you want?

'Becca, it's me.

'I'm in trouble. Please, you've got to help me.

'I'm so scared. I need to get out of here.'

'Message received 11:16pm.'

Where is she?

Eden?

Eden?

What happened?

I, erm...

Eden?

Eden? She was with you.

Neel!

We... We... We came home.

We came home, and...

Look, God's honest truth, I actually... I can't remember.

I must've had one too many. I...

'Hi, it's Eden. Please leave a message.'

Oh. Er...

'Emergency. Which service do you require?'

Hi, I need the police.

Erm... My... My wife's missing.

I think she might be in danger.

DS Moy, we're ready for you now.

How'd it go? What, the anti-corruption review?

Yeah. Not ideal. I'd just rather not talk about it.

Hey. Morning.

Well...?

Well, we got the tribunal findings late last night.

Ari was cleared of all charges. Yes! Congratulations.

Cheers, mate. That's great news. Yeah.

I'll tell you something for nothing,

that hospital has got a lot to answer for.

And how did it go with Albazi's prosecution lawyer?

Yeah. We... We got the report back.

It's not great.

They said that they can tie Albazi to the Benchdale gang,

but he was careful.

It's tough for them to link him to anything specific.

They're, er...

They're also concerned

about the length of sentence that they're likely to achieve.

How concerned?

Well, we spoke to their lead counsel,

and she says he's unlikely to serve significant time

now that Lauren Packham is refusing to testify.

PHONE UNHOOKED DC Nicholl.

Listen, Roy.

If what Cassian said was true...

Listen, we do not believe a word

that comes out of Cassian Pewe's mouth.

I know, I get that. But...

..if Albazi killing Sandy was revenge for his own family's murder,

then that's seriously personal.

What if he did it himself?

I mean, if he did,

then there's an evidence trail that we've overlooked.

Maybe.

Or maybe it's all just a pack of lies,

Cassian trying to get into my head.

I just think that...

this is our only hope of putting Albazi away for good.

Maybe we have to take a risk here. Glenn.

Most of the Benchdale gang have been rounded up,

and they are not talking.

And with Anti-Corruption hanging over us,

all of our informants have gone to ground,

and we don't have a single lead.

That was Uniform, mispers case.

Signs of a break-in and potential threat to life.

They want us to have a look.

'Becca, it's me. I'm in trouble.

'Please, you've got to help me. I'm so scared.

'I need to get out of here.'

'Message received 11:16pm.'

I didn't hear the message until this morning.

Now her phone keeps going to voicemail.

I don't know where she is.

I swear to you, I never thought they...

You never thought what?

You should probably see this.

This is your wife?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. That's Eden.

Who sent these?

Look, I didn't think he'd actually do anything.

Who took those photos?

Erm...

OK, a couple of years back, we did some new-builds.

One of them gets smashed up.

Now, windows broken, graffiti everywhere.

We thought kids had done it.
