00:00:00Oh, shit.
00:00:01Hey, try not to move, buddy.
00:00:02Yeah, I know.
00:00:03Quieten down.
00:00:04Save your energy.
00:00:05Marcus.
00:00:06Marcus.
00:00:07Marcus, just relax, mate.
00:00:08Breathe.
00:00:09Nice and slow, mate.
00:00:10There you go, mate.
00:00:11The magic whistle.
00:00:12All right.
00:00:13Suck on that as hard as you can.
00:00:14Is this the location?
00:00:15Yeah, it looks like it.
00:00:16Well, we'll leave you guys to it.
00:00:17Sorry.
00:00:18How are we feeling?
00:00:19Any pain still?
00:00:20No.
00:00:21No.
00:00:22No.
00:00:23No.
00:00:24No.
00:00:25No.
00:00:26No.
00:00:27No.
00:00:28No.
00:00:29No.
00:00:30No.
00:00:31No.

00:00:34No.
00:00:35No.
00:00:36No.
00:00:37No.
00:00:38No.
00:00:39No.
00:00:40Oh, shit.
00:00:41This is the shit.
00:00:42Scottie, do you want a hug?
00:00:43On my knees, mate.
00:00:44Ben's OK.
00:00:45What?
00:00:46Nothing.
00:00:47I'm not.
00:00:48You're not happy that a poor kid has just injured himself like that?
00:00:49Of course not.
00:00:50Of course not.
00:00:51He dislocated his shoulder.
00:00:52That's the season over.
00:00:53Shame on you.
00:00:54Without that kid, we might not even make the series.
00:00:55Daddy, Daddy.
00:00:56Daddy.
00:00:57Daddy.
00:00:583, 2, 1, go!
00:01:02Good, good!
00:01:04Keep running!
00:01:06Right here, right here!
00:01:12What's Crawford's problem?
00:01:16He's just rusty.
00:01:18Scotty, Scotty!
00:01:22Come on lads, let's pull it together.
00:01:24Come in.
00:01:26Okay, yes, we have lost Marcus.
00:01:28But it is not the end of the world, okay?
00:01:30Scotty,
00:01:32we are looking to you for direction.
00:01:34Step it up.
00:01:40JW's a thickhead.
00:01:42What did you say to him?
00:01:44Nothing.
00:01:46You haven't told him you know, right?
00:01:48Because he's blocked me.
00:01:50Good. The guys are creeped.
00:01:52Help me get him back.
00:01:54I can get behind that.
00:01:56No, I want him back.
00:02:00But the other night though, you
00:02:02you were saying
00:02:04that you ruined your life.
00:02:06I love him, okay?
00:02:08No!
00:02:10He's 25 years older than you.
00:02:12So? You know, my dad's way older than Francine.
00:02:14Yeah, because she's old too.
00:02:16Two people are old and it doesn't matter.
00:02:18But if one person's old and a teacher
00:02:20and the assistant coach for the
00:02:22I know it's rugby teams and it's wrong!
00:02:24Wow, okay.
00:02:26Are you listening to our conversation?
00:02:28No, I'm just my locker.
00:02:30Oh, whatever.
00:02:38Odds on how much we'll eat this?
00:02:42Hey losers.
00:02:44Good luck today, bro.
00:02:46You too.
00:02:48Catch you every game.
00:02:50Why are you going to go
00:02:52watch the same ball sacks?
00:02:54Shadow's finding a stick for the ball.
00:02:56Oh!
00:02:58Morning.
00:03:00Want me to meet you at the field?
00:03:02Yeah, I just thought it'd be easier if I picked Niko up from here.
00:03:04Niko?
00:03:06Yeah, tell me you're staying at yours.
00:03:08Doesn't know the rules.
00:03:10Staying before the game.
00:03:12Lying sod.
00:03:14You don't know where Niko might be?
00:03:16Okay, well I'll go track him down.
00:03:18See you there.
00:03:20Who was that?
00:03:22Uh, Mitch looking for Niko.
00:03:24He hooked up with some girl, didn't come home last night.
00:03:26Ooh.
00:03:28Yeah, not some girl, some guy.
00:03:30Huh?
00:03:32Apparently.
00:03:34Huh.
00:03:36Mitch never said anything.
00:03:38Well, maybe he didn't know.
00:03:40Is that blowing your little mind, babe?
00:03:42A gay boy on the rugby team?
00:03:44No.
00:03:46Good on him, eh?
00:03:48None of the boys giving him break?
00:03:50No, of course they're not.
00:03:52It's 2021.
00:03:54Yeah, I know.
00:03:56And yeah, cool.
00:04:04Rugby, can't I?
00:04:06Knock, knock.
00:04:10I've got the coffee machine on.
00:04:12Do you want one?
00:04:14We'll be fine, thanks.
00:04:18And make sure you're ready to cheer
00:04:20as the winner of today's game
00:04:22will be advancing to the 1A quarterfinal
00:04:24next week.
00:04:26Oi, where were you last night?
00:04:28I got to get on the field.
00:04:30You weren't at Vince's?
00:04:32Yeah, I ended up at Mitzi's.
00:04:34Hey, bro, Mitzi, I stayed at yours last night, eh?
00:04:36Uh, yeah.
00:04:42Come on, Aikes!
00:04:54Come on!
00:04:56Possession, St Ike's!
00:04:58What is going on out there?
00:05:00Ty has this issue putting on the ball.
00:05:02Come on, come on, come on!
00:05:04Scotty, Scotty!
00:05:10Crookford's a freaking robot.
00:05:12Can't play what's in front of him.
00:05:14Well, at least the players like him.
00:05:16I'm important to the captain now.
00:05:18Neither of your star players are delivering.
00:05:20Scotty just needs to get match fit, that's all.
00:05:22We'll call off the 1A finals
00:05:24until he's feeling up to it, shall we?
00:05:26Or until Ty learns how to catch a ball.
00:05:28Honestly, this is an omni-shambles.
00:05:30He did.
00:05:54What's he doing here?
00:05:56Eh?
00:05:58He wants to watch 1A.
00:06:02Let's go! Get it!
00:06:04Get to Rory!
00:06:06Go, go, go!
00:06:26G'day.
00:06:28You watching Nico play?
00:06:30Yeah.
00:06:32What was your name? It's Steven, isn't it?
00:06:34I'm Nico's dad.
00:06:36You play rugby?
00:06:38No, I'm more of a chess man myself.
00:06:40I can rock him in Queen's Gambit.
00:06:42But you know rugby, right?
00:06:44You understand the culture.
00:06:46You know what it would mean for my son
00:06:48if he was to get tarred
00:06:50as one of you.
00:06:52Sorry, I don't...
00:06:54Look, I have game age.
00:06:56And I don't mind what you get up to.
00:06:58But for Nico,
00:07:00rugby is number one, yeah?
00:07:02Yeah.
00:07:04Understand that.
00:07:06No, I don't think you do.
00:07:10Stay the hell away from our games.
00:07:12You stay the hell away from Nico.
00:07:18Good chat.
00:07:32I'll see you later.
00:07:40Why don't you just text him?
00:07:42What part of ghosting do you not understand?
00:07:44I told you.
00:07:46Rugby boys are so toxic.
00:07:48Says the queen of well-adjusted relationships.
00:07:50I was thinking
00:07:52we should host your pre-ball here.
00:07:54I don't give a crap about the ball.
00:07:56Yeah, I'm not going.
00:07:58You're not taking Nico?
00:08:00It's not true, is it?
00:08:02When I was in year 12,
00:08:04I broke up with my boyfriend right...
00:08:06Oh, nobody cares, Francine.
00:08:10See you later.
00:08:12Quick catch up with Jade.
00:08:14Again, not caring.
00:08:18In my heart of hearts,
00:08:20I thought he was the one.
00:08:22Well, that's a bit bloody depressing.
00:08:24We've both met the one.
00:08:26Yeah, here we are, on the couch.
00:08:28JW is not your soulmate.
00:08:30He's your sex offender.
00:08:52I've booked in for Russian lashes,
00:08:54hair extensions, acrylic nails...
00:08:56Wow, so not basic at all.
00:08:58Don't double me, because you don't have a ball day.
00:09:02Emi, would you be cool
00:09:04if I asked Scotty to the ball?
00:09:06I'd be cool. You'd be lame.
00:09:10Hey, Scotty.
00:09:12You really not going?
00:09:14No.
00:09:16You know what?
00:09:18I think you should go to the ball with me.
00:09:22Yeah?
00:09:24If you want.
00:09:26Okay.
00:09:28Yes, Ty Roberts, I'd like to go to the ball with you.
00:09:34You look so sexy in a suit.
00:09:38Sorry.
00:09:40Without Marcus, we are floundering.
00:09:42We might as well give up.
00:09:44Our defence gets eviscerated
00:09:46by a substandard opposition
00:09:48the week before quarter finals,
00:09:50and you think I'm overreacting.
00:09:52You can't blame Ty.
00:09:54He's got no one to fire off.
00:09:56Crockford's never even in the game.
00:09:58Okay, if neither Roberts or Crockford is delivering,
00:10:00then what are the options on the table?
00:10:02New blood?
00:10:04Not at this stage of the tournament.
00:10:06Drastic times, drastic measures.
00:10:16Bro, I didn't know you were back in town.
00:10:18Man, I haven't seen you since the nines.
00:10:20How's things?
00:10:22Good.
00:10:24How's the missus?
00:10:26Yeah.
00:10:28Oh, hi.
00:10:30JC Roberts.
00:10:32Where you been?
00:10:34To get our drinks back.
00:10:36It's JC, Shane.
00:10:38You used to play rugby with him.
00:10:40Yeah.
00:10:42I might leave you guys to it, eh?
00:10:48Hey, sorry.
00:10:50I'm guessing you hadn't heard.
00:10:52He got diagnosed TBI.
00:10:54Shit.
00:10:56Yeah, headaches turned to seizures,
00:10:58turned to hello.
00:11:00So is he, like, can he do most things?
00:11:02Oh, you know, we have good days, yeah.
00:11:04He's in residential care.
00:11:06This is one of our days out.
00:11:08Tough on you, mate.
00:11:10Just glad my son's into rowing, not rugby.
00:11:12Yeah.
00:11:14Look, let me know if you want to catch up.
00:11:16I'm on Facebook.
00:11:18Thanks.
00:11:36Ooh.
00:11:38Where'd you get the kahawai?
00:11:40Uncle Doug. Hey, TikTok.
00:11:42Can you come and butter a stack of bread, please?
00:11:44Were you on the whole life?
00:11:46Jeez, you got big.
00:11:48We might have to stop feeding you.
00:11:50No, I've got to keep feeding her.
00:11:52She's going to be an all-black.
00:11:54Yeah, maybe.
00:11:56Must be a hit with the ladies, then.
00:11:58Nah, they all got the tights.
00:12:00So, scholarship.
00:12:02Now, do you need good grades,
00:12:04or is scoring tries enough to keep you in there?
00:12:06I got an excellence in history this week.
00:12:08What? You did?
00:12:10Why are you so surprised?
00:12:12No dressage yet.
00:12:14We need to take up yacht racing.
00:12:16You leave her alone.
00:12:18It's an elite sport, is all I'm saying.
00:12:20Yeah, one that she's very good at.
00:12:22And you're on the right track now,
00:12:24cos taking on iwi liaison officer.
00:12:26Keep our people out of the Pākehā courts
00:12:28and into our own systems.
00:12:30That's the only path forward.
00:12:32In an idealised world, maybe,
00:12:34but when's on the streets dealing with reality?
00:12:36Oh, is that right token?
00:12:38Oh.
00:12:40Oh!
00:12:42You got too many teeth to be that cheeky.
00:12:46Swap it around, boys.
00:12:48Let's go.
00:12:50Dad, let's just go home.
00:13:02Can I help?
00:13:04You come into my school, poach one of my best players,
00:13:06and expect me to take it up the arse?
00:13:08Don't you tell me to calm down, you piece of shit.
00:13:10Hey, this is business.
00:13:12You are not getting your hands on him.
00:13:14You can fucking forget about it.
00:13:16I found him. I backed him.
00:13:18You wouldn't give him a chance.
00:13:20I put in the hard yards, and you think you can come
00:13:22and nick him off me now?
00:13:24Hey, I only want the best for Riley.
00:13:26Oh, piss off. I put a fucking roof over his head.
00:13:28He's part of our whānau.
00:13:30Yeah, so is his mum.
00:13:32She doesn't give a shit about her son.
00:13:34All she can see is dollar signs.
00:13:36Dad.
00:13:38Dad.
00:13:48St. Isaac's, eh?
00:13:50Only way you can ever win is with a checkbook.
00:14:00I'm so sorry, Dad.
00:14:02You didn't do anything wrong.
00:14:04I didn't do anything.
00:14:08It's Mum.
00:14:10I may have called her and told her you were about to lose your shirt.
00:14:14Hey, don't panic. I didn't lose my shirt.
00:14:16You want what's best for Riley?
00:14:18Oh, I put that roof over his head.
00:14:20He's part of our whānau.
00:14:22Oh, weh.
00:14:24It's shameful.
00:14:26I reckon.
00:14:28It's all over my feed.
00:14:30Well, maybe you don't follow so many St. Arsecrack losers.
00:14:32You're famous, Vinnie.
00:14:36Oh, weh.
00:14:38Turn it off, Tai.
00:14:42Hey, Riley.
00:14:46Obviously he wasn't meant to hear any of that.
00:14:48Everybody heard it, Vince!
00:14:52Need an extra duvet in that dog box, Vinnie?
00:14:54I'm not sorry.
00:14:56No, you...
00:14:58No, bro, you own it.
00:15:00I'm sorry.
00:15:10No, he didn't mean it.
00:15:12He's right.
00:15:16Mum is useless.
00:15:18Look, she's turned herself around.
00:15:22I don't want to go see Isaacs.
00:15:24Honey, you...
00:15:26You don't have to do anything for anyone else.
00:15:28This is for your mum, not for Vince.
00:15:30If you're happy where you are...
00:15:34...then your mum will understand.
00:15:36I'm sure she will.
00:15:42So you're all back on again?
00:15:44Sorry?
00:15:54You do know this is stalking?
00:15:56You were ghosting me. I had no choice.
00:15:58I was ghosting you because I don't want to talk to you.
00:16:00Yeah, that isn't really working for me, so...
00:16:02What's up?
00:16:06I don't want to be with someone who isn't out.
00:16:08Dude, I'm not in the closet.
00:16:10Well, your dad wants to shove you in it
00:16:12and lock the door and throw away the keys.
00:16:14Wait, what? My dad?
00:16:16He told me to stay away.
00:16:18What the f...
00:16:20When?
00:16:22At the game.
00:16:24Oh, my God.
00:16:26He says that it's rugby.
00:16:28That there's never been a gay All Black.
00:16:30Yeah.
00:16:32Why can't you be the first?
00:16:34Exactly, but he doesn't see it that way.
00:16:36He keeps telling people that we moved up from Wellington
00:16:38because I got on with a bad crowd.
00:16:40It wasn't a bad crowd. It was the theatre kids.
00:16:42Sure, I don't shout about it on the rugby field,
00:16:44but I don't go out of my way to hide it either.
00:16:48Yeah, sure.
00:16:50What...
00:16:52Ask me to the ball.
00:16:56Pardon?
00:16:58I want you to take me to your ball.
00:17:00Yeah, prom king
00:17:02and prom king
00:17:04out and loud and proud and all that.
00:17:06I wasn't actually going to go.
00:17:10Fine.
00:17:12Will you go to the St Isaac's ball with me?
00:17:16I like a white orchid for my corsage.
00:17:18I like a white orchid for my corsage.
00:17:20You're such an idiot.
00:17:28Why are you still dark on me?
00:17:32They tried to poach one of my best players.
00:17:36I'd push back.
00:17:38You threw a wobbly in front of a bunch of school kids.
00:17:42Well, it worked.
00:17:44He's not going.
00:17:46I'm not loyal to that boy.
00:17:48Unlike some.
00:17:50Some? You mean Ty.
00:17:52Well, if the boot fits.
00:17:54This isn't about loyalty, Vince.
00:17:56This is about perspective, and you don't have any of it.
00:17:58You're completely out of control.
00:18:00So I should what? Stand back
00:18:02and let those pricks steal my players
00:18:04again, Christian, and then Ty.
00:18:06I mean, is that what you want me to be?
00:18:08A doormat for Jesse and JW
00:18:10just to wipe their feet off?
00:18:12So making a macho dickhead of yourself is better?
00:18:14You're giving me grief just for standing up for myself.
00:18:16I'm done. I'm done.
00:18:18I'm not taking anyone's crap anymore.
00:18:20I won't come second again, okay?
00:18:22I'm over it. You might be happy staying a loser,
00:18:24but I am not.
00:18:36Hey.
00:18:38Hey.
00:18:40Oh.
00:18:44Hey.
00:19:02Speed up.
00:19:04Okay.
00:19:06And as this is a 1A quarterfinal,
00:19:08CD's will be at a premium today,
00:19:10so students, please be respectful
00:19:12and reserve the bleachers for the more senior supporters.
00:19:16Hey, Roberts.
00:19:18Any idea where Jesse is?
00:19:20He hasn't returned his calls. I haven't heard from him.
00:19:22Nice form, Coach Roberts.
00:19:24Could be traffic or whatever.
00:19:26Whatever.
00:19:30Yo.
00:19:32I've seen Jesse. He's not here.
00:19:34That's weird.
00:19:36I'll call him.
00:19:38Roberts! Move it!
00:19:40It's the 1A quarterfinal.
00:19:42He better have a good excuse.
00:19:44It's okay.
00:19:46I'm not really an assistant coach, am I?
00:19:48Thank God for that.
00:19:50Where's Jesse Roberts?
00:19:52Looking forward to seeing him again.
00:19:54I hardly heard you were going to be here.
00:19:56Too scared to turn up?
00:20:00Huh?
00:20:02Hiya.
00:20:04Hiya.
00:20:06Hiya.
00:20:16It's not the Dark Ages.
00:20:20Did you say something?
00:20:22Hello?
00:20:24Did you say something to me?
00:20:26No. I was just talking to my son.
00:20:28All right, Kaz. Just keep your eyes on the game.
00:20:30What, are you all good to let that carry?
00:20:32Ty's to go to school with these people, alright?
00:20:36I'll never get that decision.
00:20:38They're not all assholes, some of them are actually...
00:20:41Yeah, when did you become a wuss?
00:20:43I'm trained to de-escalate situations, not inflame them.
00:20:47Don't go all pig speak on me.
00:20:49Wow, it must be really nice to go on holiday with your own personal punching bag.
00:20:55You're not my punching bag, Renee.
00:20:58And now I miss my son's try, thank you very much.
00:21:06And with that, Sir Isaac secure their spot in the 1A semifinal.
00:21:11Looks like we've got one hand on the trophy already, James.
00:21:14I would wipe that smile off your face, mate.
00:21:17What the hell were you playing out there?
00:21:19Did you not just see that last try?
00:21:21You're only saving grace.
00:21:23Good win, lads. Let's go.
00:21:26Good work, Sam.
00:21:29Yes, you can.
00:21:30Not even when we win.
00:21:33Are you alright?
00:21:34I had a ball date for half the treadmill at the gym this morning.
00:21:37Ty, it's not funny.
00:21:39Sorry. Is he okay?
00:21:41He has to have surgery.
00:21:44And the ball was pretty much the only reason I stayed in school.
00:21:48He has to be someone.
00:21:51Ty?
00:21:53Me?
00:21:54It's my date, idiot. Have you got any ideas?
00:21:56Good game, Ty.
00:21:57Thanks, Aunty.
00:21:58Last one, son.
00:21:59Through to the semifinals, eh?
00:22:01Yep.
00:22:02Ready to go?
00:22:03Yeah, five minutes.
00:22:04Hey, did you see where Mana got to?
00:22:09Good luck.
00:22:10Oh my God. Mana. He's perfect.
00:22:13Ty, get back here.
00:22:16Would Mana take Madison to the ball?
00:22:19Doubt it.
00:22:20Oh, come on.
00:22:21Your house is free on a Saturday night with this short notice.
00:22:24Please?
00:22:25Wait, does he know the deal?
00:22:27Definitely not.
00:22:28It's going to be super bougie.
00:22:31It's a high-end exclusive soiree.
00:22:33He needs to look like he fits in at a high-end exclusive soiree.
00:22:36Mads, let's face it. He's kind of all you have.
00:22:40She hasn't even got him yet.
00:22:42Look, can you just tell Mana to pick her up from her house at five?
00:22:45Okay? Okay?
00:22:47What do you say, boss?
00:22:50Sheesh.
00:22:52Yes.
00:22:53Is that all?
00:22:54It is photo time.
00:22:56Oh, come on.
00:22:59Game tomorrow, so designated driver tonight.
00:23:01Yes, sir.
00:23:02You all right?
00:23:08Do I need to give you a rundown of the rules?
00:23:11I'm good.
00:23:12Good?
00:23:13Bye, Mama.
00:23:14Bye, darling.
00:23:18Have fun.
00:23:19Bye.
00:23:22They always grow up pretty well, huh?
00:23:25Yeah.
00:23:28Come on, Lynn.
00:23:30What?
00:23:32Is this still about the other night?
00:23:33Oh, the other night, when you called me a loser.
00:23:37I said I was sorry and I didn't —
00:23:39Uh, I don't want to talk about it again.
00:23:47What's up, um, Mona?
00:23:52I know, Madison.
00:23:53I'm going, I'll be really late!
00:23:54So the prequels are Emmys, I was going to host, but after my last party, my parents...
00:24:03No.
00:24:04All they want to do is get rid of that blimmin' coachie, he's a waste of space.
00:24:06I reckon he's for the blimmin' dole shoes, that fella.
00:24:07Well, thanks for your thoughts there, Reg.
00:24:08If you want to give us your thoughts, the number is...
00:24:09Oh my god, you look stunning.
00:24:10So do you, babe.
00:24:11So?
00:24:12So?
00:24:13So?
00:24:14So?
00:24:15So?

00:24:34So...
00:24:35So?
00:24:36So?
00:24:37So?
00:24:38So, what do you think?
00:24:39Yeah, real pretty.
00:24:40I was going for Ethereal.
00:24:51Looking gorgeous, Matt.
00:24:52Oh, thanks, Simon.
00:24:53Hey, did you catch a big game last weekend?
00:24:54Yeah, so tends.
00:24:55If people wanna come and watch the rugby here, please do.
00:24:58I'm a lone rugby fan in this place.
00:25:01Absolutely.
00:25:02No, it was Tye.
00:25:04No, it was Mana.
00:25:06You said Christmas isn't about presents.
00:25:08It's about that baby.
00:25:10Baby Cheezles.
00:25:12I'm not sure that was Tye.
00:25:14No, he was about the presents.
00:25:16Yeah, that's true.
00:25:24Oh!
00:25:26Yo, Keynes.
00:25:28Hot date, is it?
00:25:30Hey, Cammie.
00:25:32This is my wife, Renee.
00:25:34You killed her.
00:25:36You feeling confident for tomorrow, bud?
00:25:38Well, if boys don't get too pissed tonight,
00:25:40a bunch of them have gone to the St Isaacs ball.
00:25:42Right. Well, Niko's got a gaming session tonight,
00:25:44so he'll be okay.
00:25:46Good on him.
00:25:48Man, this is nothing like the school socials we used to have.
00:25:50Oh, my God. What?
00:25:52Who is she?
00:25:54With John? Is he with her?
00:25:56How am I supposed to know?
00:25:58I'm not going to sit at any meter and fucking bumble.
00:26:00Maybe it's datingforoldpeople.com.
00:26:06I'll offer.
00:26:08Oh, you can't say anything these days
00:26:10in case someone feels unsafe,
00:26:12but I'll tell you what's unsafe.
00:26:14Oh, look.
00:26:16It's from Aria.
00:26:18It's our crew.
00:26:20Oh, look.
00:26:22Your one's there, too.
00:26:24Not gaming after all, eh?
00:26:26No.
00:26:28Doesn't look like it.
00:26:30Maybe he was a late ringer and late runner.
00:26:32Just nicely all together, though.
00:26:34We all look so grown up, don't we?
00:26:36Yeah.
00:26:38Woo!
00:26:54Oh, hey, coach.
00:26:56Hey, squatty boy.
00:26:58Woo!
00:27:00You're looking sick, mate.
00:27:02You missed a good game today.
00:27:04Woo!
00:27:06I wish I brought a doggy bag.
00:27:08It's so good.
00:27:10I want to go home.
00:27:12What happened?
00:27:14Nothing. I just want to leave.
00:27:20Hey, Imogen, look, I don't know you,
00:27:22but you can't let a dude control you like that.
00:27:24Hi. That's what she says to me
00:27:26about her jerk-faced brother.
00:27:28The other brother.
00:27:30Can we just go home?
00:27:32Please.
00:27:34Oh, fine.
00:27:50Just get out!
00:27:52Do you think anyone could walk in here?
00:27:54Who's that woman?
00:27:56Oh, for fuck's sake.
00:27:58How could you bring a date to my ball?
00:28:00I miss you, John.
00:28:02I did everything you asked me to.
00:28:04Okay, this is out of control.
00:28:06You have to get out of here now.
00:28:08If anyone comes in, I'm...
00:28:14This is John White speaking.
00:28:16This year 13 student
00:28:18just followed me into the men's bathroom.
00:28:20What are you doing?
00:28:22For my own protection, I'm putting it on record.
00:28:24Stop! Stop it!
00:28:26Please leave the men's bathroom, Miss Groomstone.
00:28:28It's me. What are you doing?
00:28:30You're intoxicated.
00:28:32Who said it?
00:28:34Please leave the men's bathroom.
00:28:36I've asked you several times.
00:29:01Let me just tell you this one more time.
00:29:06Stay the hell away from me.
00:29:09I get it. You don't want me to...
00:29:11Oh, you think you're suffering now?
00:29:15Let me tell you what will happen
00:29:17if you risk my job
00:29:19and my career again.
00:29:23You will be kicked out of school.
00:29:27You'll have no prospect of a career.
00:29:30No husband.
00:29:33No one will want you.
00:29:36The psychotic,
00:29:38attention-seeking
00:29:40little liar.
00:29:56I want to go.
00:29:58Right now.
00:30:00Please, get a taxi, eh?
00:30:10Without even thanking me for taking him.
00:30:12So rude.
00:30:14Well, why don't you go to the after-ball
00:30:16with the rest of the class?
00:30:18I don't want to.
00:30:20I don't want to.
00:30:22I don't want to.
00:30:24Well, why don't you go to the after-ball
00:30:26with the rest of the losers?
00:30:27Shall we?
00:30:29Not me. I've got to get going.
00:30:31Oh, stay.
00:30:33I promise I won't keep you up all night.
00:30:35Okay.
00:30:40I should probably go make sure
00:30:42that Aria got home okay.
00:30:44See you tomorrow?
00:30:50I've always wondered what being a dateless loser
00:30:52feels like.
00:30:54Dumb.
00:30:56It feels dumb.
00:30:58Guys are the worst.
00:31:041A quarters.
00:31:06We've been here before.
00:31:08But this year,
00:31:10this year,
00:31:12we're in better shape, 100%.
00:31:14We've done the training, we've done the planning.
00:31:16Let's rely on that.
00:31:18What do you mean, G?
00:31:20Rich girl skirt.
00:31:22Nah, too much champagne
00:31:24and booger sugar.
00:31:26You're alright, you're alright.
00:31:28Focus in, you idiots.
00:31:30Yes, but 1A semifinals.
00:31:32Close enough to touch.
00:31:34So let's get this done.
00:31:36Let's get there.
00:31:38Let's go!
00:31:40One team, one final!
00:31:44Do you think it's smart
00:31:46staying out all night before a game?
00:31:48I got a good sleep, don't worry about that.
00:32:04Come on, get it together!
00:32:06You play like crap!
00:32:08Is that your date, Christian?
00:32:10Go, Nico!
00:32:12Go, Nico, go!
00:32:18Well done!
00:32:22That wasn't ours.
00:32:24Bullshit useless bag.
00:32:28Did you hear that?
00:32:32Go.
00:32:34Get in there and do your job.
00:32:36Move!
00:32:38Come on!
00:32:46Hey, come here.
00:32:48Don't you dare do this to me.
00:32:50That is your team out there.
00:32:52Sorry, Dad.
00:32:54This drag's done.
00:33:00Nico!
00:33:02What the hell?
00:33:04What are you doing?
00:33:06He's hung over packing a set.
00:33:08Sorry, coach.
00:33:10Jeremiah, you're in.
00:33:12Let's go. Come on, come on.
00:33:14Get in there.
00:33:16Drama.
00:33:22Hey, Nico.
00:33:30Nico!
00:33:32Nico.
00:33:36Hey, I heard what your dad said.
00:33:40He hates me so much.
00:33:46Come on.
00:33:48Oh, bub.
00:33:50Fuck.
00:33:54It's okay.
00:33:56He hates me so much.
00:34:02Yes!
00:34:04Yes!
00:34:08Well done, boys.
00:34:14Congrats. Good game.
00:34:18Is Nico okay?
00:34:20He shouldn't have gone to that ball last night.
00:34:22He always pushes things too far.
00:34:24Semi-finals next week, Mitch.
00:34:28I can't count out now.
00:34:30Getting this close again and...
00:34:32No.
00:34:34Can't do it.
00:34:36No, you do it.
00:34:38Nico will be here in top form 110%, okay?
00:34:40We're here to win, too.
00:34:44All right.
00:34:52Hey.
00:34:54What happened to you?
00:34:56I went after Nico.
00:34:58Really?
00:35:00Well, I hope he was sorry.
00:35:02Unbelievable.
00:35:04That bloody kid.
00:35:06Hold up. His dad was pushing him.
00:35:08Ren, he walked off the field in the middle of a game.
00:35:10He let his team down.
00:35:12All because he couldn't handle being reprimanded
00:35:14for his own poor decisions.
00:35:16That's not what happened.
00:35:18Okay, well, I don't know what Nico told you,
00:35:20but he's a troubled kid.
00:35:22They had to move up to Auckland to get away
00:35:24from a bad crowd that he fell in.
00:35:26The bad crowd was his boyfriend.
00:35:28He's bullying his own son.
00:35:30What?
00:35:32Rugby for you, eh?
00:35:34Okay, that's unfair.
00:35:36The All Blacks, remember they did that inclusion campaign?
00:35:38You know, your game's got a problem
00:35:40and your mate, Mitch,
00:35:42is neck deep in it.
00:35:50So you gonna talk to him?
00:35:52Eh?
00:35:54Nico is one of your boys.
00:35:56It's my responsibility.
00:35:58Yes, you don't need to tell me
00:36:00how to do my job.
00:36:04Yeah, of course I will.
00:36:06Tell Mitch to, you know,
00:36:08just head in.
00:36:18You know, school boy rugby rates are plummeting.
00:36:20Maybe these kids have had enough
00:36:22of toxic masculinity.
00:36:24You know, I have.
00:36:36Okay, if you don't go,
00:36:38I'm gonna call the cops.
00:36:40This will only take a second.
00:36:42Okay.
00:36:44Okay, if you don't go,
00:36:46I'm gonna call the cops.
00:36:48This will only take a second.
00:36:50You're right.
00:36:52People think I'm crazy.
00:36:54I don't have cheerleading anymore.
00:36:56I don't do diving.
00:36:58I'm not popular.
00:37:00You know, I really don't have any of the things
00:37:02I used to care about.
00:37:04So I have nothing left to lose.
00:37:06I've decided I'm gonna take you down.
00:37:08Enjoy your morning, fuckhead.
00:37:10Because shit's about to rain.
00:37:14It's gonna roll.
00:37:16It's gonna roll.
00:37:18It's gonna roll.
00:37:20Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:37:22Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:37:24This is
00:37:26favoritism because he's the first 15 captain.
00:37:28He's also the star of our
00:37:30debating team. Now the bell went four minutes
00:37:32ago. Move.
00:37:34You know that law school scholarship I was
00:37:36hoping to get? No.
00:37:38The St. Ike's alumni scholarship to Otago
00:37:40Uni. All living costs for the first year,
00:37:42fees for the second.
00:37:44She's putting Ty and Robert's forward for it.
00:37:46Are you serious?
00:37:48Emi, whose side are you on?
00:37:50Ty's, obviously.
00:37:52I would definitely have him for my lawyer.
00:38:04What are those men in your bag?
00:38:06Wasn't me.
00:38:08Shut up.
00:38:10Push up!
00:38:16He's got pace.
00:38:18There's nothing like a Lucy if you chase
00:38:20down the back.
00:38:22He's
00:38:24good now.
00:38:26Focused. Yeah.
00:38:30Everything good at home?
00:38:34Mate, you try to protect them
00:38:36and it backfires.
00:38:38I
00:38:40brought my boy here to get him away from that whole
00:38:42scene.
00:38:44Scene? The gay scene.
00:38:46You know, I mean this
00:38:48generation?
00:38:50I don't know. I get him up here
00:38:52and the next thing you know he's got one of them across
00:38:54the fence.
00:38:56One of them.
00:39:00Mate, I don't know if you've noticed
00:39:02but there's been a big culture shift.
00:39:04Inclusive
00:39:06policies, rainbow rugby scene.
00:39:08Really?
00:39:10What if it was mana?
00:39:12I heard about his Japan offer.
00:39:14Mate, you'd be okay
00:39:16telling your son that?
00:39:18What? The fact that he has potential
00:39:20to be a professional player but he can only
00:39:22play rainbow rugby.
00:39:26I just want my son to be happy. That's bullshit Vince, come on.
00:39:30Look, we had a talk.
00:39:32Niko knows what his priorities
00:39:34are and he knows what he wants to be.
00:39:36Just leave it at that.
00:39:38Hey. What?
00:39:40You're really good at buying presents to people.
00:39:42No, I told you I'm not going to help you shop
00:39:44for a present for Francine.
00:39:46You're way better at shopping than me and you're way better at pretending you care about her.
00:39:50I mean, me and Niko
00:39:52usually hang out after his practices.
00:39:56I mean, I've also already
00:39:58sassed my present for Francine.
00:40:00See what I mean? Please help me.
00:40:04Hey.
00:40:08Wasn't that your boyfriend?
00:40:10Yeah.
00:40:12He must be tough
00:40:14dating a closeted rugby player.
00:40:16Niko's not in the closet.
00:40:18I mean,
00:40:20apart from his dad
00:40:22is problematic.
00:40:24Old rugby men are just so toxic.
00:40:26But I'm going to tear it all down.
00:40:28One problematic old guy at a time.
00:40:30Francine!
00:40:32Where's the petrol card?
00:40:34You filled up two days ago.
00:40:36And?
00:40:38Dad pays for the card, not you.
00:40:40It's for fuel. Imagine you can't be buying lollies or junk food with it.
00:40:42Lollies?
00:40:44Am I sick?
00:40:46Hey, do you want a lift?
00:40:48She's a terrible driver, but...
00:40:50No, I'm picking up Ty.
00:40:52Hi Niko.
00:40:54My dad's waiting in the car.
00:40:56I just wanted to quickly say sorry.
00:40:58I can't hang out at the moment.
00:41:00I need some space.
00:41:02What? You need space?
00:41:04During the finals period, yeah.
00:41:06Oh.
00:41:08Well, your parents want you to have some space.
00:41:10Look, this isn't just his dream.
00:41:14Ever since I was a little kid,
00:41:16I've never seen another future.
00:41:18It's all like a nothing.
00:41:20Come on, you must get it.
00:41:22You must get it.
00:41:24What are you obsessed with, passionate about?
00:41:26Well, wish me luck at least.
00:41:28Luck.
00:41:38Imogen, this is my colleague Erin.
00:41:40Our senior sergeant wanted us to come and talk to you again.
00:41:42Look, it's great that you came forward,
00:41:44but we need to be realistic.
00:41:46It is real.
00:41:48Everything I said is completely true.
00:41:50Yeah, I mean, if you guys need a witness,
00:41:52I saw her come out of jail.
00:41:54Hi.
00:41:56He's going to deny it.
00:41:58Just like he did last time.
00:42:00He'll call you a silly girl with a crush,
00:42:02point out that he lost his job,
00:42:04that you admitted that you lied.
00:42:06Sweetie, Mr White is going to paint himself as the victim.
00:42:08That's just...
00:42:12Did you keep any text messages from him?
00:42:14Any voicemails?
00:42:16He always made me delete everything.
00:42:18I had to check my phone to make sure I had.
00:42:20So he was right then.
00:42:22No one's ever going to believe me.
00:42:24I believe you.
00:42:26But this guy's been clever.
00:42:28He's covered his tracks.
00:42:30We need evidence.
00:42:32You just think about it, alright?
00:42:38Do you think it would be better to meet him first
00:42:40in nihilism or the stoicism?
00:42:44Hey, it's just a group project for philosophy.
00:42:46It's a Friday.
00:42:48Hiya!
00:42:50You just have mean smirks.
00:42:52Oh, I'm not in the philosophy group.
00:42:54I'm just with William.
00:42:56Look, I promise we're just wrapping up soon.
00:42:58Yeah, I really don't need this tonight, okay?
00:43:00This whole time it's Mum.
00:43:02She says I need more evidence.
00:43:04Is this about JW?
00:43:06Because I can help you get evidence, if you want.
00:43:08Let's take a little juice.
00:43:10Listen, everyone has a digital footprint, right?
00:43:12So that's where we start.
00:43:14I get high excellence in IT.
00:43:16Plus, I support guys I like all the time.
00:43:18It's crazy what you can find out.
00:43:20Okay.
00:43:22Um, JW doesn't actually have any social media.
00:43:24Also, this is, like, really weird.
00:43:26No, no, no, she's right.
00:43:28Look, when there's one mouse, there's usually several.
00:43:30We don't have mice.
00:43:32What I mean is,
00:43:34do you really think you're the only one?
00:43:36Yeah, there could be other girls.
00:43:38When I was on the school yearbook committee,
00:43:40we archived all the yearbooks, eh?
00:43:42All the way back to the 1940s.
00:43:44I'm on it.
00:43:46Last ten seconds, here we go.
00:43:48End of the game, we're behind.
00:43:50Keep pushing, we don't give up.
00:43:52Push.
00:43:54Good.
00:43:56Circle up, bring it in.
00:43:58I don't want to take long.
00:44:00I just want to say,
00:44:02in spite of the disruption,
00:44:04we're still in good form.
00:44:06Yeah?
00:44:08It's not even a disruption,
00:44:10it's like we're moving back to the old guard.
00:44:12And remember,
00:44:14everything happens for a reason.
00:44:16Yes, coach.
00:44:18Yeah?
00:44:20Bring it in, come on.
00:44:22Here we go, one, two, three.
00:44:24Nice!
00:44:26Come on.
00:44:28So,
00:44:30Amy and Stephen did all this research last night,
00:44:32from the old St Isaac's yearbook.
00:44:34Look, it's JW.
00:44:36Oh, is that him with the little ponytail?
00:44:38These are from like, ten years ago.
00:44:40And look, in every photo,
00:44:42it's the same cheerleader hanging around,
00:44:44looking at him like he's awesome.
00:44:46Honey, this doesn't prove...
00:44:48She even looks like Imogen.
00:44:50We found their name in the sports photo.
00:44:52Robbins!
00:44:54Is the captain going to join us or what?
00:44:56Hey.
00:44:58You focus.
00:45:00You play the game.
00:45:02You play it for your team and for you.
00:45:04Not for that lad.
00:45:06Good feeling about this, buddy.
00:45:08Take this one out.
00:45:10Finals all the way.
00:45:12One game at a time, eh?
00:45:14Give me three bucks.
00:45:16Fifty bucks.
00:45:18Three?
00:45:20Seventy, whoever has fifty dollars.
00:45:22G, can you do us a solid?
00:45:24Could you ask Stephen to leave?
00:45:26What, have you guys broken up or something?
00:45:28I just, semi-final nerves.
00:45:30I don't need my dad being there today.
00:45:32Okay.
00:45:34Okay.
00:45:36Thanks.
00:45:40Hey.
00:45:42Hey, bro.
00:45:44Niko,
00:45:46he just feels a little bit weird
00:45:48about you being here today.
00:45:50Because we have this
00:45:52stupid superstition in our team
00:45:54and I don't have any of my
00:45:56girlfriends at the big games.
00:45:58Can't argue
00:46:00with sports superstition, yes?
00:46:02Yeah, thanks.
00:46:04Well, just tell him
00:46:06he can come round to mine later.
00:46:08Frankie's having a birthday party.
00:46:10It's my step-mo.
00:46:12I thought your dad was waiting.
00:46:16Yeah, anyway,
00:46:18tell Niko he's more than welcome to come by.
00:46:20See ya.
00:46:22See ya, bro.
00:46:36Well, that's something I never thought I'd see.
00:46:38Crockford and Roberts actually combining
00:46:40for a try.
00:46:42It is amazing what can be achieved when you lose the deadwood.
00:46:52What on earth?
00:46:54This is becoming a bit of a habit.
00:46:56Me blocking you from school events
00:46:58due to your inebriation.
00:47:00Well, I'm here to watch my son play footy.
00:47:02No, you and your friends
00:47:04will leave now.
00:47:06It's fine, John. Go back to the game.
00:47:08Back to the game, John?
00:47:10Mate, you abandoned these boys.
00:47:12Don't you turn up now trying to ruin their focus.
00:47:14Hey, look at this.
00:47:16A talking penis.
00:47:18Get out of here, Roberts.
00:47:20You know you don't see that every day.
00:47:22A penis that can talk.
00:47:24Okay, if you're going to stop the play
00:47:26until I get this sorted.
00:47:28Hey, Jesse.
00:47:30Oh, jeez, that was quick.
00:47:32Normally it takes ages for the cops to roll up.
00:47:34Come on, mate. Let's take this party somewhere else, eh?
00:47:38Hey, come on.
00:47:40You need to leave for Tai.
00:47:42You wouldn't want him to see you like this.
00:47:48Yeah, okay.
00:47:50Yeah, okay.
00:47:52Let's get going, eh?
00:47:54You sober?
00:47:56Yeah, I'm good.
00:47:58Well, I'm walking.
00:48:00Party's over.
00:48:02Party's over, Avery.
00:48:06Middle, middle, middle.
00:48:10Yes, let's go, boys.
00:48:12Get in, get in.
00:48:14Oh, that's it.
00:48:20That's a try.
00:48:22Ugly, but it's effective.
00:48:38Good work, lads.
00:48:40Welcome to the final.
00:48:54Thank you guys for being here. Big cheers.
00:48:56Cheers.
00:48:58Happy birthday, darling.
00:49:04What am I looking at?
00:49:06Tai sent it. The girl from the yearbooks. It's her shot.
00:49:08Oh, J.W.'s first cheerleader.
00:49:10Okay, we don't actually know
00:49:12anything between them.
00:49:14Tai wants to rock up to the flower shop and just, like,
00:49:16ask her.
00:49:18I guess there are worse plans.
00:49:20Can you come with us?
00:49:22No, look, I can't.
00:49:24I told Nico to meet me here after the game.
00:49:26He might still show up.
00:49:28Oh, Stephen.
00:49:30Come on, go.
00:49:32Go find that cheerleader.
00:49:36This feels really dumb.
00:49:38I can do the talking.
00:49:40If we're wrong,
00:49:42we're wrong.
00:49:46Come on.
00:49:48This is gonna be a bit random.
00:49:50But when you were in school,
00:49:52did you ever know a J.W.?
00:49:54John White?
00:49:56What's this about?
00:49:58We're here on behalf of a friend
00:50:00who didn't have a good experience with it.
00:50:02Oh, maybe that's something
00:50:04for the school and the authorities to sort out.
00:50:06Exactly, Tai.
00:50:08Except schools, like St Isaac's,
00:50:10never want any trouble.
00:50:12So they don't
00:50:14sort anything out.
00:50:16My husband,
00:50:18he was the captain in the first 15,
00:50:20so we did spend a lot of time with J.W.
00:50:22He and his wife actually came to our wedding a few years ago.
00:50:24We kind of lost touch.
00:50:26But the J.W. I knew was just a normal dude.
00:50:28Cool teacher.
00:50:30Nice guy.
00:50:34Thanks.
00:50:36Hang on.
00:50:40I'm so sorry.
00:50:42I told you it was stupid.
00:50:44Damn it!
00:50:52How you guys doing?
00:50:54There's something else.
00:50:56Hey.
00:50:58Look,
00:51:00I don't know if this is anything,
00:51:02but I just remembered
00:51:04about Mad Megan.
00:51:06Who?
00:51:08One night after a game,
00:51:10we were celebrating at J.W.'s place
00:51:12and this year 11 girl just turned up
00:51:14out of nowhere, crying and everything.
00:51:16He said she had a crush on him
00:51:18and took rejection badly.
00:51:20And what happened?
00:51:22He sort of just calmed her down and then got rid of her.
00:51:24But she never came back to St Isaac's.
00:51:26I mean, everyone said she was nuts.
00:51:28Do you know her last name?
00:51:30Honestly, she was weird.
00:51:32I mean, apart from that one night,
00:51:34I barely even registered her.
00:51:36But yeah, Mad Megan.
00:51:54Stepdad.
00:51:56Yo.
00:51:59Um, listen.
00:52:01Stephen invited you to his stepmom's cocktail party.
00:52:03You wanna go?
00:52:05I'm still keeping my distance, bro.
00:52:07Why? Is there a problem?
00:52:09Nah, it's just...
00:52:11As soon as these finals are over,
00:52:13I'm done with the BDA.
00:52:15Yeah, I'll... Yeah.
00:52:29Hey, there she is.
00:52:31Morning sunshine.
00:52:33You were a bit thirsty last night.
00:52:35So, I found four Megans
00:52:37that went to St Isaac's
00:52:39at the same time as Candace.
00:52:41Four.
00:52:43Boy!
00:52:45Imogen!
00:52:49We found her.
00:52:51Mad Megan.
00:52:53She said she left in year 11
00:52:55and took rejection badly.
00:52:57Left in year 11.
00:52:59And...
00:53:01She hung up on me.
00:53:03Maybe she just didn't enjoy her time
00:53:05at St Isaac's.
00:53:07Yeah, but why, Stephen?
00:53:09You really think you found her, Mad Megan?
00:53:11Yeah.
00:53:13Tai gave me the list of names
00:53:15and I got my mate William to find the numbers.
00:53:17Thanks.
00:53:19Hey.
00:53:21Girl power and all that.
00:53:23Non-scholar.
00:53:26At St Isaac's, we learn
00:53:28not for school, but for life.
00:53:30Now, I want you to take
00:53:32what you have learnt,
00:53:34what you know,
00:53:36and use it on that field.
00:53:38I do not want to see that 1A trophy
00:53:40leave our grounds.
00:53:42Yeah, boys, let's go.
00:53:46Hey, guys, let's hit the showers.
00:53:48Let's go.
00:53:50Roberts, I have some news.
00:53:52You've made the shortlist for the alumni scholarship.
00:53:54Real?
00:53:56I'm very confident that you'll be heading down to Otago next year.
00:53:58Oh, man.
00:54:00Um, thanks, miss.
00:54:02I really appreciate it.
00:54:04Any reason the principal's having a private meeting
00:54:06with our captain?
00:54:08Everything's fine, Mr White.
00:54:18Excuse me, boss, we're looking for Megan.
00:54:20Megan?
00:54:22Uh...
00:54:24She's over there.
00:54:26Oh.
00:54:30Uh, kia ora.
00:54:32Megan, I'm Ty.
00:54:34And this is my friend Imogen.
00:54:36We were wondering if...
00:54:38We know you went to St Isaac's.
00:54:40So we wanted to ask you about the rugby coach.
00:54:42JW?
00:54:44No.
00:54:46Please, can we just...
00:54:48I said no.
00:54:50Please.
00:54:52John's been making my life hell, and we thought...
00:54:54Thought maybe you could help.
00:54:58Whatever we talk about,
00:55:00we won't go any further.
00:55:02Promise.
00:55:06Wow, this must be a pretty choice place to work.
00:55:08Yeah, I like it.
00:55:10The tree's never gonna be a prick to you.
00:55:14Um, how old are you?
00:55:1617.
00:55:18And how old were you when...
00:55:20it started?
00:55:22Um...
00:55:2414.
00:55:28I was 14 too.
00:55:36Wait, hold on, it's her.
00:55:38What, Mad Megan?
00:55:40We really shouldn't call this.
00:55:42Don't want to go and beg their good luck.
00:55:44Oh my god.
00:55:46That's possibly just a hitch.
00:55:48No, Stephen.
00:55:50Without her, it's back to my win against John's.
00:55:52And we already know what everyone believes.
00:55:54We could try and find some more witnesses.
00:55:56This isn't a game of guess who.
00:55:58Is your cheerleader blonde?
00:56:00Does she have long hair?
00:56:02Was she just a kid when...
00:56:04I don't want to do this anymore.
00:56:06Hey, hey, Emmy.
00:56:16Whoa.
00:56:18What about the ABs?
00:56:20Um, that was always Dad's dream, eh?
00:56:22I mean, I...
00:56:24I guess I just heard it so much
00:56:26I thought I wanted it too.
00:56:28Yeah, yeah, but who doesn't want to be an AB?
00:56:30Someone who's been offering me money
00:56:32to play overseas?
00:56:34Yeah. Yeah, Dad's always telling me
00:56:36I want to be an all-black.
00:56:38Well, I mean, if you do,
00:56:40tomorrow's the start, right?
00:56:42Start being who you're gonna be.
00:56:44Well, that's what Dad says anyway.
00:56:52Hey, five minutes.
00:56:54All I'm asking.
00:56:58You're the one to stop talking to me.
00:57:00So,
00:57:02just knock yourself out.
00:57:04Look, tomorrow is 1A final.
00:57:06What? Oh, I, uh,
00:57:08I didn't realise that. You know,
00:57:10coming to a school that's full of rugby
00:57:12heads and jots and everything.
00:57:14It's just one more day. Can you wait for me?
00:57:18It's never just
00:57:20one more day, is it?
00:57:22You know, there's always gonna be another game.
00:57:24Another final.
00:57:26Another season.
00:57:28I'm always gonna come second
00:57:30to your dreams.
00:57:32Look, that is not true.
00:57:34I don't think you've ever once asked me what my dreams are.
00:57:36Okay, well,
00:57:38what's your dream,
00:57:40Steven Grimstone?
00:57:46My dream is to be loved by someone who isn't ashamed of me.
00:57:50That's my dream.
00:57:56Megan!
00:57:58No thanks!
00:58:02I know it's scary.
00:58:06That's what he's relying on.
00:58:08You and Imogen are too scared to say anything.
00:58:10Oh, you know.
00:58:12And you've got no idea, mate.
00:58:14I know that.
00:58:18I used to judge Imogen,
00:58:20along with everyone else.
00:58:22You know, that girl is porangi.
00:58:24Everyone says it. They laugh about her.
00:58:28I'm
00:58:30just a dumb guy
00:58:32who'll never understand what you
00:58:34and me went through.
00:58:36What you are going through.
00:58:38But my mum,
00:58:40she's this
00:58:42strong-ass wahine
00:58:44and she'd kick my ass
00:58:46if I didn't at least try
00:58:48to stop her
00:58:50from hurting anyone else.
00:59:00There's hundreds of people here.
00:59:02Meiko won't even see you.
00:59:04We're here, what, to punish ourselves?
00:59:06We're here to support our friend Tai.
00:59:08Hey!
00:59:10Is it all good if my mate stands with you guys to watch?
00:59:12What mate?

01:09:41Well, that's good, right?
01:09:46John what?
01:09:47We're hoping you can answer a couple of questions.
01:09:49I've got guests, what do you want?
01:09:50There's been some allegations made against you.
01:09:52Oh, really?
01:09:54You're wasting your time listening to a mentally unwell teenager.
01:09:57These allegations have been made by a woman in her late twenties, relating to incidents that occurred ten years ago.
01:10:03Who's the teenager you're referring to, mate?
01:10:05Is everything alright?
01:10:06Oh yeah, of course.
01:10:10Thanks.
