Previously on Filthy Rich ` I was an embarrassment. I wouldn't be sorry I had you. One birth certificate. Father unknown. This is where we're going. We are so close to finding your dad. You gotta be Zac Bryce, formally of Westport? I don't know what you're talking about. You will say nothing until we can work out how to contain this. (UPBEAT POP MUSIC PLAYS) Whoo! Whoo! (BOTH LAUGH) Do we even know how far Gisborne is? That's your job, navigator. Cool. It feels like we're going the wrong way. Who cares? You and me, babe. We're gonna go find my dad. (CHUCKLES) Yeah-yah! Whoo! Whoo! (TENSE, OMINOUS MUSIC) BRADY: You... will get out of this house. SAVANNAH: 'I didn't realise how you felt about me.' I've been thinking about it since the moment I met you. VADER: Hi. You OK? (GRUNTS) I heard you and Brady arguing about something. Ah. Don't worry about it. She's angry at me about something, isn't she? I let her down. It doesn't matter any more. Is that why I tried to kill myself? No. Like I told you, that's not what happened. OK? BRADY: I supported you. You hate me as well. No, no! The` The opposite. I-I care about you so much. Why is everything so messed up in my head? Do you want me to get the nurse or`? No, no, no. Just, um` Just stay with me for a while, please? I feel so much better when you're here. You have visitors. My favourite stepmother. You'll be pleased to know that we've managed to sort out our differences. I'm glad to hear it. If John's prepared to swallow humble pie, I can be the bigger man. OK. Oh, and I've come up with a new name for our company. (CLEARS THROAT) Get this ` Mother Truckers. 'Our' company? Yeah, yeah. I'm still keen to be involved. You see, I'm keen to find someone with actual money. I'll put up the rest. Seriously? 49%? As long as your share is sound. I am working on that as we speak. Wh` Hello? (CHUCKLES) Still here. What about me? You really have nothing to offer. What do you mean? I brokered this deal. You should get back to your day job while you still have one. Let's talk details, shall we? (ROCK MUSIC) (SCOFFS) Hmm? (POP MUSIC PLAYS) This doesn't look like a main road. Well, it's the scenic route. See? What did I tell you? Yeah, yeah. (BANG!) Oh shit! Babe, babe, babe. Pull over. That does not sound good. (SIGHS) Oh shit! It's really flat. What are we gonna do? We're in the middle of frickin' nowhere. Have to call someone. Chill. There's gotta be one of those, um, spare things in here, right? I guess. (SIGHS) Do you even know how to change a tyre? How hard can it be? (GRUNTS) ARIANA: It's OK. The minister's expecting you. You'll be safe here. (SIGHS) Hey, what's going on? Oh, this kid's in my class, and his mum came to get him. His dad turns up all agro, and I took them to refuge, but it was closed. For real? There's no funding. (CAR APPROACHES) Oh no. He must have followed us here. Stay here. Is my missus here? Sorry, man. I ain't letting you pass, bro. Go somewhere and cool down. Says who? Says me. Or up to you. I can call the cops. (CAR DOOR SHUTS) (TENSE MUSIC) Thanking you. Hey! Big man! You wanted to see me. No, but apparently I have no choice. Oh, touche. (CHUCKLES) Those companies on death row; you did a good job, which surprised everyone, especially me. Gee, thanks (!) I want you to contact them ` quickly, quietly. Let them know their fate Well, that's a shit job. You are just the shit to do it. You can go. MOCKINGLY: Oh, you can go. (CELL PHONE BUZZES) Yeah? Yeah, I've been thinking about what I want in exchange for keeping your secret. I told you, you got it wrong. You'll meet me. I'm gonna bring some paperwork. Are you paying attention? Yeah. BRADY: He wants your shares? Yeah. He said if I sign them over to him, he'll let me walk. (SIGHS) He wants to see me now. That arsehole. Could be worse. How can you say that? If I do this, I wouldn't have to pretend any more. Me and Vannah, we` You could what? I wanna be with her. Since bloody when?! Pretty much since I met her, and now we finally can be. Oh. It's love?! And if you weren't her brother, you could be together. Yeah, maybe. That is not gonna happen! Yeah, it could if I sign my shares over to him. You have signed legal documents. You have taken money by fraudulent means and God knows what else. I am counting on your support. I'm sick of the lies and the bullshit. I wanna be with her. Well, you don't always get what you want. Just watch me. Captions were made with the support of NZ On Air. Copyright Able 2017 (GRACE GROWLS, TOOLS CLINK) Can I call someone now? Who are you gonna call? I dunno. Some garage in Gisborne. (SCOFFS) I don't have any reception. Me neither. Maybe I could climb a tree. You? Yeah. Climb a tree? What? I can climb. CHUCKLES: I would like to see that. Shut up. Make me. (CAR APPROACHES) Ooh. Oh my gosh. Kia ora, lovely ladies. (CAR DOOR SHUTS) Ooh. Flash car. You girls need a hand? Kia ora. I'm Grace. Kennedy. Paulie. Can you change a tyre? Can do, yeah. Cool. So, uh, where you girls from? Auckland. Figures. Too classy to be from round here, eh? (CHUCKLES) Sorry. We don't have any cash on us. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Not how we do things on the coast, babe. Oh, cool. Um, and we'd be really, really grateful. Yeah, those nuts are really tight. Tight nuts, eh? Hate that. (LAUGHS) Gillian. Brady Truebridge. Yes. I know who you are. You've been avoiding my calls. I don't want Zac to get into any trouble. It's a bit late for that. So let's talk ` fast. In essence, these documents mean you'll be gifting control of your shares through a trust. To you? Yeah, to me. Through a trust. I know what you did to Savannah. (LIFT DINGS) And I keep telling you that is simply not true. I don't wanna make a deal with you. You really don't have a choice, though, do you? Hi. OK... Hi, darling. How's it going? Um, well, I'm` I'm OK. Fisher Brankovich, I'd like you to meet Gillian Joster ` mother of Garth Joster. Now, son. What the hell is going on here? That's me. Gillian Joster. And this is my son Garth. Isn't that right, darling? Totally, Mum. So, we all good here? OK, hold on. According to Westport hospital, Garth Joster is in rehabilitation following a serious car accident. They got it wrong. It was my foster son who was injured. They were always together. (CHUCKLES) I have a photo from the Westport Examiner of Zac Bryce. That is Zac Bryce. Oh, they got the caption round the wrong way. (SCOFFS) This is Garth, son of John Truebridge, the bastard who knocked me up, and I should know. Just like I remember your father, Warren. He was a right prick too. And now you're trying to take away my boy's rights. It's disgusting, that's what it is. Perhaps I should speak to a lawyer,... or talk to whoever runs your company. That won't be necessary. Well, I'm glad to hear it. And we're all sorted here? Thanks, Mum. Shall we go? Let's. Before I lose my rag. (DRAMATIC MUSIC) (PAULIE GRUNTS) There we go. All done, ladies. Thank you so much. My pleasure. What are you doing? Just need to check the wheel alignment. You know, couldn't send you on your way, have you judder, judder; flip the car. Poof. Crash. Couldn't have that on my conscience, eh? (ENGINE STARTS, POP MUSIC PLAYS) Feels good. And I'm outta here. Hey! Stop! Hey! Wait! (TYRES SCREECH) Oh my God. He's coming back. Stay back. Stop! My bag was in that car! So was mine. Oh, what about his car? This can't be happening. Ugh, there's no keys in here! My car. My beautiful car. Ugh, I love that car! I know, babe. (SIGHS) 1 SNAKE: You're supposed to give notice before coming through here. Now piss off! What's going on? That Truebridge bitch is trying to sell the building. Shit. (ENGINE REVS) (ROCK MUSIC) Hello? (ROCK MUSIC PLAYS) Hello? (KNOCKING ON DOOR) Hello? Dylan Mayberry? No? SHOUTS: Dylan Mayberry! Yeah, yeah. Quit the decibels. (PANTS) What have you done to yourself? (PANTS) I was born this way. Cerebral palsy. Oh. Yucky. Oh, I'm John, from Truebridge Hunt. I'm here to inform you we're selling you. Oh, awesome. Awesome. Finally. Did you hear that, Greg? We're` Finally. Wait a minute. Oh my God. Why is that awesome? Oh, well, your company said it would invest money into developing apps. Instead, we're doing programmes for morons. Yeah. Well, hey, that's management for you, right? Yeah, well, Truebridge Hunt wouldn't know a good idea it if kicked them in the ball sack. (ROCK MUSIC CONTINUES) What kind of good idea are we talking about? Like you would care. Hey, man. I'm not a suit. I'm creative. So let's spitball. Let's riff, man. OK. Well, this idea that we're working on right now is genius. It's an app called Rate My Ride. (LAUGHS) That is brilliant, man. Yeah? Oh yeah. I mean, everybody wants to know how good they are at sex. Uh, Rate My Ride is about cars. I mean, what do you drive? Lamborghini. Yeah? OK, well, I would drive your car, I would rate it, and then other dudes can check it out. Or you could sleep with someone and rate their arse. Yeah, no. Rate My Ride's about cars. Or sex. It's my idea, and it's about cars. Sure. OK. Look, I don't wanna kill your little buzz. Ah. Just out of curiosity, though. I mean, to develop and idea like that ` how much are we talking? (THWACK!) I thought you were selling us, mate? Oh, no, I'm not talking about the company. (CLANG!) I'm talking about me investing. Well, have you got a hundred thou spare? That is one sexy piece of car. How much did that set you back? A lot more than you can afford, sonny Jim. BRADY'S VOICE ECHOES: I'm your family now, and I need you to come home. Roxy. Hey, beautiful. How's everything going? It's OK, but the club's for sale. They're gonna knock it down and turn it into apartments. Maybe I could talk to the owner, make them an offer. I've got money. You don't remember? Remember what? Brady. She bought the building. Why did she want a strip club? So you'd quit the club and go back to working for her. Brady did that? Shit. Thanks, Gillian. What you did, it was awesome. It's not too late to come home. I can't. All right, love. I need to get back to my boy, so it's on you to look after Zac. Of course. I'll look after him like he's my own. (SIGHS) This is hopeless. There are hardly any cars. Someone's bound to pick us up sooner or later. Yeah. When they rape us and kill us and throw us in the ditch for us to die. (CHUCKLES) I'll protect you. Like you did with that arse who stole my car? You were so flirting with him. I was not! Were. So obvious. (SCOFFS) Car! Shit. It's the police. SOFTLY: Yeah. I can see that. Hi. How's it going? Thank God you're here. I just want to report a robbery. My car. Is that right? This car was stolen from outside the RSA. Was that you? Are you stupid? She just said our car has been stolen. Give me the name of a parent or guardian. (SMOOTH MUSIC PLAYS, INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS) It is so good to see you. You too. Oh! Oh, hello,... sweetheart. ANNABELLE: This is Ariana, who is fabulous, and she's gonna be our new best friend. (CHUCKLES) So, first off, our last fundraising extravaganza was an amazing success, and we're wondering what do we put our energy into next? Ooh! I have some ideas. And so we're thinking a new charity boxing event. The Charity Champions. (CHUCKLING) What about the money you've already raised? Well, we use it for our body awareness campaign. I thought the foundation was to help needy women and children. And what better way for girls to feel good about their bodies than seeing confident women in a boxing ring? And I'm going to train and fight. (CHUCKLES) Fantastic! How brave of you. I do have a few months to get into shape. Months? Well, a boxing event isn't something you just pull together overnight. Exactly! But there are women and children in actual need right now. Why can't you just give the money to them? I would think the object is to raise money, not give it away. And to raise awareness. What I'm aware of is an abused woman and her kids who can't go to refuge because it's been shut down and she has nowhere to go. That's terrible. But is that our responsibility? It's more important than schoolgirls worrying that they're fat. Actually, anorexia is the real issue. Not in South Auckland. Well, down there, it's probably the opposite. (LAUGHTER) I just think there are bigger priorities. Well, would you like your objections noted in the minutes? (CHUCKLES DERISIVELY) Don't bother. Wait, you're not leaving, are you? I just don't see any point in me being here. I was hoping you'd want to join in the boxing. Night, Nancy. Night, darling. Well, what a tantie! What I wanted to do was smack Annabelle in her smug face there and then. Girl fight. Excellent. It wasn't. And Joe's mother. What about her? She's so patronising and sucky-uppy. She's just like those other rich bitches. Finally. Someone you hate. And there's something else. Oh, please. Go on. Malia had all those years where she could have met Joe, so why'd she choose now? Because I called her? Because she knows Joe has money. (GASPS) What an appalling, cynical thought (!) A bit of loathing really brings out your eyes. Watch it. Those charity hoes, they need to be very, very afraid. I'm not going back there. (COMPUTER BEEPS) Ooh! Hold that thought. I've got a bidding war going on the Lambo. You're selling the Lamborghini? Yeah, well, sometimes you have to make sacrifices for a good cause. Yeah. Keep bidding, you little suckers. Now, where were we? (SOFT POP MUSIC PLAYS) Joe broke it off with her, but I still don't think she's over it. Ah. That explains a lot. Hi, darling! Hello! How was the charity thing? Dramatic. There was a walkout. Ooh. By your ex. Ariana threw a massive hissy fit. She was all like, 'None of what we do is important,' because she knows real poor people. (CHUCKLES) Well, she kinda does. It's so typical that you would take her side. Annabelle, what...? Oh dear. Sorry. (DOORS SLAM) Were you and Ariana together long? Um,... since high school, yeah. What happened, if you don't mind me asking? Dunno. We just kinda... fell apart. But you still care about her? She's with John Jr now, and I'm with Annabelle, so` That doesn't really answer my question. Look, no offence, but you haven't` It's none of my business. Yeah. Kind of. I understand. I'll leave you to your work. OK. Thank you. 1 Whoa. Is that your grandpa? I guess. POLICEMAN: Well, here we are, ladies. (CAR DOOR SHUTS) You Kennedy? Yes. What the hell you playing at, girl? Turning up here out of the blue. Getting into trouble with the cops. We didn't mean to. That's enough. I'll leave you to it, then. Let's go inside. Hi. I'm just picking some stuff up for Vannah. I'll take it in. No, I'm good. No. She wants to see me. And from now on, you need to stay away from Savannah. I'm not gonna do that. Yes, you are. We managed to control the situation, but you need to pull your head in. What about Fisher? He tried to kill her. There's no proof. And even if by some miracle Savannah remembers` I should be there. Then what? You declare your love? Tell her she's not your sister? You owe me, and you will do as I say and stay the hell away from Savannah. Am I making myself clear? Let me know how she's doing. I'll pass on your brotherly love. Oh, and tomorrow, I have a job for you. Like what? Can you drive a truck? Yeah. (FOOTSTEPS APPROACH) Here's the stuff you wanted. And a phone. Where's Vader? He's busy. And you wanted to catch up. Why are you selling the club? The building belongs to me. People work there. Yes, but it's one of the few assets I can liquidate, and I need the money. So is that all you care about ` money? Let's look at it this way ` I have financial issues. I lost my position on Truebridge Hunt, partly because you and Fisher shafted me. So if anyone here is to blame` These are people's jobs. What do you care? It's not like you're gonna be working the pole any time soon. Oh, fuck you, Brady. No, fuck you, Savannah. How dare you take the moral high ground with me, you backstabbing little` You know what? I'm remembering a whole lot more about you. You are the reason John Truebridge rejected me and my mother, and she hated your guts. Ancient history. Oh no. It's all very fresh. You're not thinking clearly. Uh, yeah, I am, and I don't like you, so get out. Get out! Get out now! WOMAN: Is everything all right? Has this girl seen psych services yet? (SCOFFS) They have been notified. Yeah, well, tell them to pull finger. Are you all right? She's such a bitch. Can you pass me my phone, please? At least I know someone I can still rely on. Tell you what, it was like old times, the cops pulling up to the door. Only difference ` back then, it was your mum. Mum used to get in trouble? All the bloody time. Ran with a bad crowd. Miracle is she didn't wind up in prison. What is this? It's wild boar stew. I'm kind of vegetarian. Well, why didn't you say something? There is a vegetarian option. Really? Yeah. Go hungry. (CHUCKLES) Hasn't your mother ever told you about her wild youth? Actually, she doesn't talk about it ` or her family. Yeah, well, we didn't exactly see eye to eye. Oh well, eat up. I'll go find you some sleeping bags. It's actually not bad. (ROCK MUSIC PLAYS) Hey, Vannah. Hope you had a good night. I'm kind of tied up ` something for Brady ` but I'll be in a bit later. Hello? Excuse me. WOMAN: Busy here. Sure. Um, I'm looking for someone called Delaney. What do you want? Uh, Brady Truebridge might have said something about me coming over. Are you her stepson? Yep, that's me. (CHUCKLES) And you're, what, some rich kind that wants to be a truck driver? Nah. Do you even have your HT? I used to drive down on the West Coast, mining. Well, this piece of shit won't start. Can you tell me why? Battery? It's new. It's just been charged. Then it's probably lack of compression of the fuel injection. What's your name? Friends call me Vader. Brooke... Delaney. Let's go. Where are we going? To see if you can drive or if you're full of it. (CHUCKLES) I can drive, lady. (KNOCKING ON DOOR) Hi. I came as soon as I could. It's about Brady and the club. You know that she owns the building? Yeah. I was there when she did the deal. Well, now she wants to sell it. I had heard something about that. Well, is there any way that I can buy it? I've got money, right? (CHUCKLES) Well... Yeah, theoretically. It's tied up in shares. Do you know why she wants to sell so urgently? No. But it makes me realise I don't trust her. You're so right about that. Well, think about it ` the only reason she cares about you or Vader is because she wants control of your shares. But Vader's a good guy. Is he really? Of course. He only ever does what Brady wants. OK, I bet they've both said bad shit about me. Kinda. The truth is, Savannah,... all you and me ever wanted was justice for your mum and my dad. We could still get it. 1 Savannah, that little ingrate. After everything I've done for her. She's had serious injuries. We've all got our problems. She started this way before she hit the pavement. Oh, darling, that's a bit harsh. (PANTS) Savannah is not some innocent little victim. No, but she's vulnerable and probably feeling quite alone right now. I'm sure even you've made the odd mistake you've come to regret. (GRACE GARGLES) Ugh. Kill for a toothbrush. It's kinda basic but kinda cool. Yeah, I can see you doing that whole 'back to the land, 'earth mama' shit. But with style, right? Mm-hm. What's that? Dunno. Whoa. Scary. I wonder who she is. That's your great-great-grandmother. Everyone said your mum takes after her. (CHUCKLES) Her father was a great warrior; fought with Te Kooti. Last cannibal in the family. (SPITS) That we know of. For real?! He's just kidding. Oh! (LAUGHS) Come from a long line of hard arses. What about my dad? What did your mum say about him? Nothing. She won't even tell me his name. Probably had her reasons. We'll have a cup of tea, and then we'll hit the road. Where are we going? I'm taking you home. No arguments. VIVIAN: Gosh, that's marvellous. So, will there be a swimming pool? It's meant to be affordable housing. LLOYD: Looks like we're on the same page. Well done. Pleasure. Good? Good. Now... Whoa. Easy, champ. Hey, do we need to have a little chat, man to man, about this rift between our girlfriends? Um, no. Don't think so. Hey, Ariana's pretty dark on your mum, eh? Does not like her at all. Yeah? What'd she say? Uh,... 'selfish, rich bitch' I think covers it. Yeah. By the way, I am loving this business shit. It's pretty amazing knowing that you have people's lives in your hands. You wouldn't have a clue what having a job means to most people. I know I love mine. Yeah, but you've had every opportunity ` money, education ` and still, um, you've achieved nothing. That's a bit harsh. You're only here cos of your mum. (LIFT DINGS) It ain't gonna last. Hey, I hear you, bro, but, uh,... watch this space. (LIFT DOORS SHUT) BRADY: What the hell are you doing here? Actually, I asked him to come. I need to talk to you. In private. Well, I'm not interested. I know you hate me. I came to apologise. Well, I don't want to hear it. When I get out of here, I'll make my own arrangements. No way. Do you want me to call security? You heard the lady. You're making a huge mistake here, Savannah. (FOOTSTEPS RECEDE) MAN: Don't lie to me. ARIANA: I'm not. Where are they?! I don't know. (CRASH!) Hey! Calm down! Oi! Leave her alone! She took them ` the teacher bitch! Oi, don't! Where are they?! Oi. (GRUNTS) Whatever problem you have, mate, it ain't with her, OK? I just want her back! I understand that, but this ain't the way to go about it. Now, are we good? We good?! Police, please. (SIGHS) Are you all good? Yeah. Hey, I'm not complaining, but, um, why are you here? Oh. (CHUCKLES) Um, I found Lisa a place. It's in Papakura, but` Oh, further away is probably better. Hey, you think that guy's gonna come and bother you again? Nah. Police will deal with him. Maybe you should think about a little self-defence in the meantime. Hmm. Maybe. Actually, you could challenge Annabelle while you're at it. You know, a little Charity Champion. (CHUCKLES) I don't think so. Sorry, you're` you're right about that charity bullshit. Oh, hey, did they talk about me? Nah. But, you know, it should be about real stuff, eh? Oh, is this you putting pressure on me? I don't know. Hathaway Foundation does have a shedload of money, though, but I completely understand if you're too chicken, just... Oh. (JOE CHUCKLES) How's it? What's this thing you've been doing for Brady? Oh, um, she's got this new business going. Wants me to work there; keep an eye on it, I guess. Right. So is that why you're here? Eh? To report back to Brady; tell her what I say. Nah, I'm here because I wanna see you. Yeah, you know, Vader, I just feel like I need some time on my own. Vannah. No. If you've got stuff to do for Brady, you should go do it. NANCY: Brady, you might want to come in here. I'm busy. It's rather important. JIM: Kia ora, Brady. Long time. What the fuck are you doing here? I gave the girls a lift back from` Stay the hell way from us. I just need a word. I'm not interested. Stop it! It's OK. I'm going. Sorry to have caused a fuss. No, you don't have to go. It's my grandfather, and I've got the right. SOFTLY: What the hell is he doing here? Because I went to Gisborne. Because I wanted to know who my father is. VOICE BREAKS: It's not OK for you to keep me from my whanau. Oh, hey. Hey. (SOBS) I did this to keep you safe. (SNIFFLES) Come here. Burgers the way they're meant to be. Meet the all-new King Meaty at BK. With Ploughman's Chutney, a third-pound Angus beef patty, Tendercrisp chicken, bacon and a hint of vegetable. It's all part of the irresistible new Meatatarian Range. Burgers the way they're meant to be. 1 Hello? Oh, dinner won't be long. Great. Thank you. Joe. Have I done something wrong? What? Nah. No. Or something to make you not like me? Look, it's` it's great having you here and everything, but you haven't really been a part of my life, so... I want to be. Yeah, but you'll be in Hawaii. I'm not going back. Why? What about your flash resort? Actually, I... don't have it any more. But (CHUCKLES) it's not your problem, so` No. I wanna know. (SIGHS) I was married. He was an ex-basketball player. American, handsome,... rich. But... he drank, he gambled. And at the end of the divorce, (SIGHS) I was left with nothing. But I'll start looking for a job and somewhere else to live. (SIGHS) You don't have to go. Is that what you want? You know, like, from the first day that I found out that I was adopted, all I wanted to do was find you. And then, like,... I-I don't really know how to feel. I know. We have a lot of lost time to make up for. But I will do everything in my power to make things right between us ` if that's what you want. Yeah, it is. My darling boy. BRADY: So, headline notes ` you lied to me, and you 'lost' your new car? It's not her fault. It was stolen. You stay out of this. But Mum,... Get Nancy to take you home. Now! (GROANS) That's not fair. Do you have any idea how hard it was to scrape up the money for that car? And you voided the insurance because you're not supposed to be driving! A car? Is that what's important here? This is none of your business. You didn't even know where your daughter was. You're giving me parenting advice? Ooh, that's rich, coming from you. Now, now, Brady. What are you gonna do? Give me the bash? Shut me up with a fat lip? Mum! I can't believe you'd go to him. You can't blame her for wanting to know who she is. She's my daughter! And my mokopuna. And she's got family,... and history. Did you tell her about the good old days? Beating up Mum whenever you were pissed,... and us kids if we got in the way. Or what about the heart-warming story of the time Mum was taking too long with dinner so you smashed her head in the oven door and gave her two cracked ribs? I did a lot of things I'm not proud of. Now she knows you. Is this what you want? (DOOR SHUTS) To hurt her? I'd call it the truth. I haven't touched a drop in 10 years. I work at the marae now. I` That's not gonna bring Mum back... or fix the lives you've ruined. You've done all right for yourself. And it's not as if you stayed round for your mother. No, I wasn't gonna stick around to watch that. You do know she forgave me in the end. Well, I can't. I hope one day you can change your mind... and come home. I'll be waiting. Don't hold your breath. (DOOR OPENS) (SNIFFLES) I'll call you, babe. I love you. All right. Off we go. See ya. Is it true what she said? All of it. I'm a different man now, even if your mother doesn't believe it. Oh, Grandpa. So you didn't waste your trip. Your father's name. But don't ask me where to find him. Could be in prison, could be dead, for all I know. Prison? Be careful, moko. (UPBEAT MUSIC) (JOHN JR SIGHS) MUTTERS: Oh, baby, it's so hard to say goodbye. Especially after all the special, special times we've shared. (SIGHS) Look at you, eh? SIGHS: Oh. (SIGHS) One last ride. (ZIPPER WHIZZES) (ROCK MUSIC) (PANTS) How nice to see you (!) I was just passing. OK. (DOOR SHUTS) Actually, I wanted to apologise for the things I said at your charity. I mean, I know it's for a good cause, and you work hard to make it a success. Yes, I do, and apology accepted. Do you mind? Yeah, sure. But I do think there are other causes worth supporting. (CHUCKLES) I'm sorry. Is this you apologising or not? This is... This is me suggesting we settle this in the boxing ring. I'll fight for my charity and you fight for yours. Whoever wins gets the money. Oh, now there's a challenge. Unless you're afraid? Oh, of you? I don't think so. (ENGINE REVS) (SIGHS) Farewell, my lovely. Hey! Sold my car. Great (!) Come on, man. This is big for me. That car is, like, my only asset. Oh, you want me to cry for you? I am putting my all into something. Something really big ` a start-up. Ooh. With all your extensive business skills? Cool, man (!) Hey, Mark Zuckerberg had nothing when he started out. Oh, Mark Zuckerberg had a little bit more going for him than you, like a work ethic, brains... Whoa, mate. So you think you're the only big banana around town. But I will show you. Save it for someone who cares, man. Let's take a bet on it. Don't gamble. See? Joe, that is the difference between you and I. I'm actually willing to risk it to win big. Yeah, and I will. What a dick. I'll show you. (DOOR SHUTS) I'll show all of you! Good morning, Savannah. I told you ` not interested. Yes, but you're gonna change your mind about that. In fact, as soon as you're well enough, you're coming home. Bullshit, I am. Is that right? You remember your stepfather, Karl, don't you? READS: 'Dear Brady, it is very hard for me to tell you this, but you need to know the truth. 'It wasn't my mother who killed Karl; it was me. 'It was me.' You told me you destroyed that letter. It always pays to keep a little insurance. So,... you will do as you're told. You will be coming home. And you will be compliant and grateful. You'll thank me one day.
