00:00It's going to be okay.
00:29It's going to be okay.
00:53It's going to be okay.
01:19It's going to be okay.
01:33Someone had to be with my dad at all times, no matter what.
01:37By the time I would have been about nine turning ten at that stage,
01:41I was making dinners for my dad.
01:43I was making his tea.
01:44I was cleaning up after him.
01:45I actually learned how to shave.
01:47Bye.
02:10Go away.
02:12Go away.
02:39I'm scheduling this to send to you this time tomorrow.
02:50And by now you'll know that I...
02:54Well, you'll know.
02:58You know, you said something to me today.
03:00You said that I'm the best man you know.
03:03And I tried to fly as high as you dreamed.
03:09If there is some kind of payout for my contract, Harry, it doesn't have long.
03:12And it would be nice if our last days were in some way comfortable.
03:18I can't watch her die, Thomas.
03:21And I can't fix what I did.
03:23And I'm not a good man.
03:26And I'm not a brave man.
03:28But you are.
03:40Please, my friend.
03:43Undo what I've done.
04:12Please.
04:36Fuck!
05:36Romeo, come back!
05:39Romeo, come back!
05:49Romeo, come back!
06:11This is a melody.
06:14Always on my mind.
06:16This is what you do to me.
06:19The girl you got me singing is so harmony.
06:24Mum!
06:25Mumma!
06:26Guess what happiness would say.
06:28Through a hundred metres, I had a distinct start.
06:31My first leg felt as long as a bridge.
06:33When you hit a thing, it's hard to stop going.
06:35I just put my head down while mum was telling me to.
06:39Junior girls check.
06:57Just take those?
06:58Yeah.
07:03Everyone!
07:06Forget the board.
07:08Okay?
07:09Let's focus on the facts.
07:11Colin Friends was in possession of physical evidence, including the bird bones,
07:15linking him to the mountain murders.
07:17But we know for a fact that he didn't kill Ronan.
07:20So we're back to the copycat?
07:22Yeah, maybe.
07:23Although...
07:26If it is a copycat, how did they know about the bones?
07:28Only two people in town knew.
07:30Me, and I don't tell anyone, which leaves...
07:32Samuel.
07:33And Samuel was in a care home with advanced dementia.
07:35What if he told someone?
07:37Okay, a full list of staff, please, Bruce.
07:39And his visitors.
07:40A copycat copies exactly.
07:43With Ronan, there's so many anomalies.
07:45The weapon, storing the body, means of disposal.
07:48They all break the pattern.
07:50Exactly.
07:51If they were copying past killings, she'd need to be long dead.
07:55Yeah.
08:00Okay, alternative theory.
08:03Ronan was the target.
08:05And Sinead just got in the way.
08:07And either the mountain murderer came out of retirement again,
08:10or it's just a diversion.
08:14And if so, we need to know why.
08:16Before someone else gets killed.
08:18So we're back to Ronan.
08:20And Ronan's burner phone.
08:24This is our last lead.
08:26If there's only one person alive, we might know the PIN.
08:33Do you recognize this?
08:36Never seen this before.
08:38It was hidden behind a panel on the Haukura car you used.
08:41Loads of people use that car.
08:46Do you know what PIN code Ronan used?
08:49No.
08:54Why would Ronan use it to sell drugs?
09:00He wasn't just some dealer.
09:01Who were you afraid of?
09:05We found a draft email on your laptop.
09:08It said you were scared everything was going wrong.
09:17Sinead, this is a murder investigation.
09:21Look, I get that you used your parents' credit card to pay off the cook.
09:25I understand that, but why'd you sell the car?
09:30To start paying back the credit card before they noticed.
09:37Couldn't let them down again.
09:40What could I say?
09:42Could you pay off my boyfriend's dealer?
09:50I was writing the email to you, Mum.
09:54Ronan needed help, but I didn't want you to have to clean up another one of my messes.
10:00So I didn't send it.
10:05I didn't do anything.
10:07Sinead, we really need Ronan's PIN code.
10:15The day we met, the 9th of August, 2019.
10:31Any of this mean anything to you?
10:38Oh no.
10:48What?
10:51A couple of weeks ago, I needed some processing data from Colin.
10:56He was tied up in a meeting with investors, but there was this data key on his desk and I thought it might have what I needed.
11:03But when I uploaded it onto my computer, it was just nuts.
11:08Colin!
11:10The data was all over the place.
11:12Hukara's processes are failing.
11:16The system is releasing more contaminants than it's extracting.
11:20I went to Colin and we had a fight.
11:23We saw you arguing on the security camera.
11:26Did you tell Ronan about this?
11:27I mentioned it, but I didn't show him the data.
11:30How could Ronan have accessed this material without you knowing?
11:39Is all of this because of Hukara?
11:49Christ.
11:50Ritzo, one text sent.
11:51Look.
11:5350k by tomorrow when the world finds out.
11:55Keep your phone up.
11:56You think he'd delete the text?
11:57So Ronan stumbles across evidence that Hukara's in trouble on Sinead's laptop.
12:01Figures he can turn it into cold hard cash.
12:03Who is the monster loser if Hukara goes under?
12:10Bruce.
12:11Diana, tell me Davidson's here. He wants to talk to you.
12:14We'll meet you there.
12:27Ronan.
12:28Ronan.
12:29Ronan.
12:30Ronan.
13:01Sinead, love.
13:03This is Valerie Armstrong.
13:04She led the search and rescue team.
13:06We are so grateful.
13:08Thank you so much.
13:09Of course.
13:10I really didn't mean to intrude.
13:11I was just visiting one of our team.
13:13He did his ankle in on the Mona.
13:14He found his body.
13:19He wanted to go home.
13:21He was so lost here.
13:26I made a mistake.
13:32You can't blame yourself, Sinead.
13:36You couldn't have changed anything.
13:40You have to remember that.
13:45I'm really glad you're safe.
13:55One oat.
13:56Oh, thanks.
13:57Flat white.
13:58Cheers.
13:59Hi, darling.
14:00Would you like some food?
14:01There's a croissant here.
14:03And one coconut milk cappuccino.
14:06Just the way you like it.
14:15Colin lied to me.
14:17We were producing ten times more waste than what I believed.
14:24And it looks like a whole lot more.
14:26Colin knew that I would pull the plug.
14:29So he hid the truth.
14:31I mean, he was channeling the waste through these storm water pipes that run underneath Hokuto.
14:38And output at the mill.
14:41And that's why Colin wanted the land around the Udupar.
14:45Because he needed to maintain those pipes in order to get rid of the waste.
14:51Mr. Davidson, could you take a look at this for me, please?
14:5750k by tomorrow, or the world finds out.
15:03What is this?
15:05Do you know anything about that?
15:07What?
15:09This is not my number.
15:11Could have been sent to a burner farm.
15:16Do you think I'm being extorted?
15:18I didn't know anything about any of this until I got Colin's video.
15:21Okay, then the text could have been sent to Colin's friends.
15:25Could he have got someone else to deal with the problem?
15:27Hey, I don't even know who Colin was anymore, okay?
15:29And I certainly don't know who that text was for.
15:34Okay, you were giving a TED talk the day Roland died.
15:39You were back by 5pm.
15:41Can you prove where you were for the rest of the night?
15:44I had an investor come into town.
15:47It was 5 or 6pm, I took her for dinner and drinks.
15:51I don't know, I dropped her off at her accommodation around 10pm.
15:56Call her and see.
16:00Wait here.
16:11She'll be alright on her own.
16:13Let her sleep.
16:18Good night.
16:27Somebody's alibi checks out.
16:30Staff from Samuel's rest home and the visitors who saw him in the last few months.
16:36Popular man.
16:39Half the town's on this list.
16:42He could have talked to anyone about the bird bones.
16:47Someone on this list was out there that night.
16:50On their way to Sinead and Roland's house.
16:54Driving down this road.
16:58And no one saw a damn thing.
17:02Hector!
17:04Hector!
17:12What the fuck are you doing, man?
17:14Is that camera recording?
17:15Eh?
17:16The fuck's it to you?
17:18There's only one way to find out.
17:20What?
17:21I don't know.
17:22I don't know.
17:23I don't know.
17:24I don't know.
17:25I don't know.
17:26I don't know.
17:27I don't know.
17:28I don't know.
17:29I don't know.
17:30There's only one CCTV camera permanently in Mount Affinity.
17:33But there's dozens of them rolling through this town.
17:35Every day and every night.
17:43Yeah, it could be up the Maunga.
17:45Could be halfway around the world.
17:48But, um, yeah, no, I've never seen it.
17:51Who would send a photo without identifying it?
17:54Somebody trying to waste your time.
17:56Hmm.
17:58Would Buster know?
18:00Why don't you ask him yourself, if you can find him?
18:05When are you expecting him back?
18:07I'm not.
18:09Oh.
18:14I went to see Frank Pastors.
18:16Why?
18:17Because there's something about him, Wiki.
18:20I thought he might have been playing with me,
18:22but then somebody sends me a message linking him to this lodge.
18:24You don't want to mess with that prick.
18:26I'm on a plane tomorrow.
18:28I'm just...
18:30following my gut.
18:31You're just nuts.
18:35If there's anybody who knows about Pastors,
18:37it's his ex, Linda.
18:39Here's her number.
18:40OK.
18:44Well, it's been so lovely knowing you.
18:49You live in heaven.
18:52Life's not meant to be perfect,
18:54but what you've got comes pretty close.
19:00Here, a safe journey home.
19:06Take care.
19:24Bye.
19:39I was just standing here remembering a gangly, pimply-faced high school kid
19:43trying to buy a six-pack.
19:45Walking out the bottle store door,
19:47straight into me.
19:48Shit, eh?
19:49What happened to him?
19:51He became mayor.
19:55Today's the day this town's going to remember.
19:59Proud of you, mate.
20:01The whole town is.
20:03Thanks, mate.
20:04No problem.
20:09Attention, everybody.
20:10The ceremony will start shortly.
20:15Halt!
20:24Halt!
20:36Halt!
20:55You call me out of the blue a total stranger?
20:59The day after I bury my boy.
21:07Linda, I'm so sorry about your son.
21:11But this is about his father, Frank.
21:15Right.
21:16I want to do some story about Jared,
21:19about his father abusing him,
21:21how he ended up on drugs,
21:23how the lowlives live and die.
21:25Thanks for the cheap gin.
21:27You can fuck off.
21:28You're not using my dead son to sell your papers.
21:30Linda, please.
21:31Sorry.
21:34Linda, I suspect that Frank Pastors has done some terrible things.
21:38Yeah, he's fucked up the lives of everyone.
21:40He's had anything to do.
21:41Yeah, but I think that he's involved in a murder.
21:44Maybe more than one.
21:48Linda, if he is,
21:51I will find out.
21:54And he will answer for it.
21:57All of it.
22:11It's Frank's uncle Jeff's place,
22:14but it's been empty for years,
22:16ever since Jeff got drunk one night
22:18and decided to go possum hunting
22:20and tripped over and blew a hole in his chest.
22:24Do you know where that is?
22:26It's up by the source of the Kaikakuriki.
22:30About as far into the middle of nowhere as you can get.
22:33Okay, so how long will it take me to drive up there?
22:37Oh, you'll need a four-wheel drive.
22:40Unless you want to walk for three days.
22:43Right.
22:48Sorry.
22:56Making new friends?
22:58Oh, just tying up some loose ends before leaving tomorrow.
23:04Sinead's found.
23:05Happy ending.
23:11You were being a bit of a dick.
23:16But I get it now.
23:19Surprised you didn't knock me out, to be honest.
23:23I had no idea it was anything like this.
23:28I was angry. I'm sorry.
23:33You ever coming home?
23:36I don't know what I'm doing.
23:42When you told me...
23:46Yeah.
23:47It changes everything but...
23:51not how I feel about you.
23:55And...
24:02You've made up your mind.
24:05But whether I stayed or left...
24:11I wish that choice could have been mine.
24:18Don't be a fucking coward, Richard.
24:22Don't use this...
24:25as an excuse to be alone.
24:48Pūhā.
24:50For the immunity. Strengthen the blood.
24:53Actually, I was going to make a wee bottle of...
24:56Pūhā vodka.
24:58For the Irishman.
25:03Hey, last night...
25:05leading the karakia for Ronan and Sinead...
25:08I thought I'd have a drink with you.
25:11I thought I'd have a drink with you.
25:14I thought I'd have a drink with you.
25:17Together?
25:19And one hour later...
25:21she walks into town?
25:24A prayer answered.
25:27Yes.
25:33So you know the bomb-scared hōkūrā?
25:37You must know that was me, eh?
25:41You think after 30 years I don't know you, Gil?
25:43Yeah, Gil.
25:46You're going to have to make a full confession.
25:48Yeah, well you're pretty big on confessions.
25:54You reckon they'll lock me up?
25:58I'll vouch for your good character.
26:01Well that's got to account for something, you old prick.
26:08Buster.
26:11No more secrets, eh?
26:13No more secrets.
26:19No more secrets.
26:25You'd better come home then.
26:38Everyone, the dash cam drives from the trucks are here.
26:40We're looking for a hōkūrā car around 8pm travelling from Ronan and Sinead's house.
26:52If we find this car, we find the killer.
27:11Hey.
27:15Sorry about my meltdown earlier.
27:18I wanted to thank you properly for finding Ronan.
27:23I was just doing what I'm trained to do, but thanks.
27:27I'm supposed to be at the opening of the trail.
27:28Come in, just for a minute.
27:31I'd kill for a cuppa.
27:40Yeah.
27:42Thanks.
27:54Attention everyone, the ceremony is about to begin.
28:00Hi, this is Belle. Leave a message.
28:03Where are you?
28:04I've got a few words to you and your team for all your work.
28:06Just get your ass down here.
28:07Oh, sorry about that everyone.
28:17Anything?
28:19Nothing yet.
28:21Same here.
28:40Hōkūrā.
28:43After the first day, I knew Ronan was...
28:49gone.
28:52Didn't know if I'd ever see Mum and Dad again.
28:59Here you go.
29:02Thanks.
29:03Thanks.
29:09My family is not of those that have lived here for a millennium,
29:15but my blood too is in the soil of this place.
29:21And I am humbled and proud to stand on this stage today.
29:51Oh shit.
29:54I've got it.
30:04Sinead.
30:09PTSD, it's not like a virus, it's...
30:13There's not necessarily any physical symptoms, but it doesn't mean it's not there.
30:20I really think you need to talk to someone.
30:23Talking to you?
30:24No, I mean a professional.
30:29Did you need me to call your parents?
30:34I'm pretty sure I don't have PTSD, Valerie.
30:42Why are you here, Sinead?
30:46I'm just fucking angry.
30:50Those scars.
30:57Why did you kill Ronan?
31:04I know how to use this thing.
31:13Okay, slow it down, see who's driving.
31:24Pause.
31:25Zoom in.
31:28No fucking way.
31:34He visited Samuel all the time.
31:38Everybody move!
31:41The Mount Affinity Trail will bring in tens of thousands of visitors and tourists to our town every year.
31:52This trail will put Mount Affinity back on the map.
31:56Hooray!
31:57Who had the most to lose and who could have failed?
31:59If the town loses everything, Ken loses everything.
32:01Ken loses everything.
32:02For all those black men in Ken.
32:05Today is a day our proud town will talk about for our town.
32:19So, yō reira, tēnā koutou, tēnā koutou, tēnā tātou katoa.
32:26Before you cut the ribbon, the council held an out-of-session meeting three weeks ago.
32:35And it's by unanimous resolution of Mount Affinity Town Council, this trail is officially named the Armstrong-Bermonday Trail.
32:57The Armstrong-Bermonday Trail
33:15Sinead, please put down the gun.
33:17Shut up! Just shut up. I know you did it.
33:19The first night when you took me to the hut.
33:22I grabbed at you.
33:26I felt those scars.
33:29And this morning.
33:30You can't blame yourself, Sinead.
33:35Shooting me doesn't bring back Ronan. It'll only destroy your own life.
33:41I'm not here to shoot you. I'm here for a confession.
33:45Sinead.
33:47Sit down!
33:50Give me the gun.
33:51Just admit it! You killed him!
33:53Sinead.
33:54Shut up! Just shut up!
33:55You stabbed my boyfriend and you threw him over a waterfall like he was nothing!
34:00Why?!
34:01Please, don't do this.
34:02Just fucking tell me why!
34:04Just admit it! Tell me!
34:10Hey, hey.
34:12She knows?
34:15Of course. Blood is thicker than water.
34:17Give me the gun.
34:19She fucking knows.
34:25The police are here.
34:30Val!
34:34Ken. No.
34:35Ken.
34:36Put it down.
34:37Sit down, Sinead.
34:41She killed Ronan.
34:43It's not what happened, is it?
34:46Ken.
34:47Ken, just tell them.
34:49It wasn't Val.
34:50It was you.
34:51It was you.
34:52She just figured out how to clean up your mess.
34:54Shut up!
34:55Don't be a fucking idiot. Put the gun down.
34:57And what, we both go to jail?
34:58Ken, please just give me the gun.
34:59Put it down.
35:01Safety's off.
35:03Ken, just please give me the fucking gun!
35:06What the fuck?!
35:07Val!
35:08Billy! Hey, hey.
35:11Hey, hey, hey.
35:13Say something.
35:16Val.
35:17Stay with me, Val.
35:18I'm okay.
35:20I'm alright.
35:23He's not a killer. He's not a killer.
35:25No, you know he's not.
35:29Tell them, Ken.
35:30Make them understand.
35:36I just wanted to give Ronan a fucking warning.
35:38Make him back off.
35:39Let him know he wasn't going to destroy everything we'd worked for.
35:42But...
35:43I just...
35:45I just...
35:47It just all went wrong.
35:49It all went wrong.
35:59We need to have a little fucking chat, mate.
36:00Fuck off, man. I'll see.
36:02You can't blackmail me!
36:13He grabbed a knife.
36:20Fuck.
36:25I got him down on the deck.
36:30I didn't hurt him, but...
36:43Oh, fuck.
36:47Oh, shit.
36:48Oh, fuck.
36:51Oh, shit.
36:59Look, hold Val.
37:00She got there before Sinead.
37:01I knew she'd know what to do.
37:04Ronan?
37:07Ronan!
37:08Jesus Christ.
37:09Ronan!
37:11Ah!
37:17It was my...
37:18It was my plan.
37:20I took Sinead,
37:21told Ken what to do with Ronan.
37:23I found a place to hide Sinead,
37:24how to make it look like a mountain mural.
37:26Samuel told you about the bird bones.
37:28She needs an ambulance, Richter.
37:34Val, get up. We're leaving.
37:35You move her, she dies.
37:36Ken, stop waving that thing around.
37:38You don't want to hurt anybody else, I know that.
37:41You don't know me.
37:45Well, fucking shoot me then.
37:47Richter.
37:48Come on, Ken.
37:49Fucking shoot Diana,
37:50shoot Sinead,
37:51drag your sister out of here,
37:52see how far you get.
37:56Come on!
37:57Richter.
37:59I'm not going to jump.
38:00Ken, no!
38:01No!
38:02Ah!
38:09I miss you.
38:16Val.
38:18Come on, Val.
38:20Come on, honey, Val.
38:21Val.
38:23Richter.
38:32Fuck.
39:33What a day, eh?
39:40So,
39:42I haven't seen you with your little stick and ball
39:44the last few days.
39:49I read a book of Irish legends
39:51one time,
39:52and I thought,
39:53well,
39:54I'm going to have a go at it.
39:55I'm going to have a go at it.
39:56I'm going to have a go at it.
39:57I'm going to have a go at it.
39:58I'm going to have a go at it.
39:59I'm going to have a go at it.
40:00I read a book of Irish legends
40:02once when I was a boy.
40:06I remember
40:07one young fellow,
40:11Coo Chirlane.
40:14Coo Cullen.
40:19Seven years old,
40:21and he slayed a deadly wolfhound.
40:24Nothing but a hurley and a slither.
40:27Hmm.
40:29Even in all those legends,
40:32the hero eventually meets his end.
40:37As we all do.
40:42Coo Cullen
40:45was set on standing tall when he met his death.
40:50Tied himself to a high stone.
40:53His enemies were still afraid
40:56until a raven landed on his shoulder.
41:00Only then did they know he was dead.
41:05Hmm.
41:07More than an Irish, eh?
41:09Can't get enough of our blood and gut stories.
41:22Hmm.
41:25Hmm.

42:38I thought you hated this song.
42:41Yeah.
42:44I heard it was your mum's favourite.
42:48I guess it's grown on me.
42:53Hmm.
42:59You gonna be alright?
43:03Define alright.
43:07You gonna be alright?
43:09Define alright.
43:12Heh heh.
43:23Did you want him to pull the trigger?
43:30I mean, standing there with the gun pointed at me, I wasn't really thinking anything.
43:38I definitely didn't want to die.
43:43Good enough for you?
43:47For now.
43:52Heh heh.
43:55No re-order.
