Previously on Filthy Rich ` Oh my God, babe. That's your dad. Ariki's been like a dad to me. If she does get to him, she could get control back, and that would be the end of me. I'll give you everything you want. What about the collateral damage? (WOMAN SCREAMS) SAVANNAH: Someone could have died. Whose bloody side are you on here? I'm on your side. Fisher trusts me, and that's what matters. And now we find a way to pay him back. Bring it. (INTRIGUING MUSIC) Toni. (BABY CRIES) Toni, are you there? Toni! SOFTLY: Oh shit. Oh shit. (BABY CRIES) Hey, Toni. What's going on? He won't stop. He won't sleep. I don't know what to do. (CRYING CONTINUES) Shh. It's all right. (CRYING CONTINUES) It's all right. WHISPERS: There you go. Sorry I took so long to get your message. I was in a meeting. Well, I could have called my parents, but then it would have been like, 'Stay in Hamilton cos you're so hopeless.' No, you're not. Do you want a cup of coffee or something? You're the one who needs looking after. FISHER: Oh fuck! Jesus. (PANTS) Hey, you... (PANTS) are amazing. I haven't felt like that in such a long time. (PANTS) I've got to` I've got to go to the office. I've got a, um... a phone conference thing. What? What is this ` wham, bam? No, no, no. It's important. And that's more important than me? No. No, no, no. I wouldn't say that. It's, um... It's a deal I've been negotiating ` East Cape. Uh-huh. And what's that? CHUCKLES: Water. Right. (CHUCKLES) It's gonna be huge. I've been dealing with the local iwi, schmoozing with the mayor. It's a very sensitive topic. Mm. Water. Very... sensitive. Oh my God. You are a dirty bitch. Yeah. The dirtiest. GASPS: Oh fuck! Captions were made with the support of NZ On Air. Copyright Able 2017 They're staying. Just until she gets on top of things. It would be our absolute pleasure. I'm sorry. I just feel so useless. No, you're not. You're just` You're tired. Mm. And it's what they do to torture people, isn't it? Sleep deprivation. And if you don't sleep at all, eventually you die. Cool. Um, well, I'll show you the spare room, and then you can get some sleep. And me and little Daniel can bond. Thank you both so much. Oh, wait ` the christening. Well, do you have to worry about that right now? I told my mum I'd take care of the invites. She already thinks I'm hopeless. But that's what I do best ` organise. I can do it. Really? Just give me the details and... (GASPS) Pooh. Someone stinks, and it's not me. Ooh, can I do it? Seriously? Practice, sweetie, for when Joe and I have a little one of our own. (JOE CHUCKLES) She's, uh, kinda crazy about having a baby. TEARFULLY: Well, you're both being really nice. Sorry. (SNIFFLES) I just need to toughen up. Hey, you don't have to do this on your own, you know. Well, I will when I go back to New York. No, stay. Stay here. I'll take care of` Joe, can we not do this right now? (CELL PHONE RINGS) OK, yeah, sorry. You go get some sleep, and I'll` we'll talk about it later, yeah? Sure. Hello? SOFTLY: Hi. I wouldn't bother you, except there's a strange man here. He wants to see you. He says it's important and he won't go away. OK. Give me five. Mm. It's something to do with water. Fisher's heading down to Gisborne tomorrow. Gisborne? A place called Manawa Springs. Yeah, it's a fresh-water spring just out of town. Did he say what Truebridge Hunt's interest is? No, and I didn't want to push it in case he got suspicious. It's funny. If I didn't know Fisher was such a murdering bastard` What? He's so happy when we're together. He's a psychopath. He's happy when he gets what he wants. Like most men, you mean? You don't have to keep doing this. Seeing Fisher, I mean. It's only sex. We can find another way. Are you telling me you've never screwed anyone to get what you wanted? Not someone I despise. I don't care,... as long as we tear his world apart. We will. I promise. Then it'll be worth it. (CELL PHONE RINGS) Kia ora. Hi, Dad. So, Kennedy's been annoying me, wanting to know about her whakapapa, wanting to come home. Sounds all right to me. You coming too? If that's OK with you. Jason Rennet. Upfront Finance. Great. I've got, um, five minutes. Let's talk about Reuben Tamatoa. What about him? He's defaulted on his loan, and you're the guarantor, so... (CHUCKLES) I don't know anything about a loan. (CHUCKLES) That's not what the contract says. Eh? This has to be bullshit. No, totally legit ` so clear you can see through it. See, that's your brother, and that's you, guarantor. This contract makes you responsible for any outstanding loan, plus interest, plus penalty fees. Like I said, I don't know anything about a loan. And I'm busy, so... Are you leaving, or am I calling security? What's going on here? Oh, yeah. Don't worry, bro. I'll sort it. Sorry, bro. You put me down as guarantor. Why not? You're good for it. I gave you the money to pay off your mortgage. Hey, show some respect, little bro. Look, I'm just trying to figure out what's going on. Leilani's mum, she got crook, and Jake needed some new gear. Oh, OK. I see you got a new car. Yeah, well, the old one was stuffed. Leilani showed me the new TV. What about you, eh? Flash car. What? I paid for that. Yeah, but you didn't work for it. See, that's like all you rich fellas; you think you guys deserve it; the rest of us don't. What about Leilani? Does she know you owe this money? No, she doesn't, and you're not gonna tell her, OK? I said I'd sort it. Now get lost. I've got stuff to do. What do you think about you and I going to Gisborne tomorrow? What for? To see your grandfather. I thought you hated him. I'm prepared to make an effort. Mother and daughter adventure ` it'll be fun. Unless you'd rather go to school. No way. Thank you. I thought you'd rather stick pins in your eyes than go home. That is true. So you must have a very important reason for going back. (DOOR CREAKS) Hey. I know were supposed to meet up. No, that's OK. Catch up when you get back. Great, um, anyways... You haven't told your mum about hanging out with me and Megan? No way. But if she changed her mind about Grandad, maybe` No, no, don't do that. It's just baby steps, eh? OK. Good. All right, then. Ciao. (PHONE BEEPS) (SIGHS) (GENTLE MUSIC) (ENGINE TURNS OFF) Mum. I just need a moment. The last time I was here was to bury your grandmother. What about other stuff? Like, when you were younger. There's nothing else I wanna remember. Grandad! Kia ora, my moko. (BOTH CHUCKLE) Tell you what ` why don't you call me Koro? OK, Koro. (BOTH CHUCKLE) Hello, Dad. Knew you'd come back eventually. He hono tangata e kore e motu; ka pa he taura waka e motu. Unlike a canoe rope, a human bond cannot be severed. Awesome. (CHUCKLES) Why don't you take your stuff inside and get settled, eh? OK. (CHUCKLES) OK, let's cut the homecoming crap. Why are you really here? You know what? I'd love a cup of coffee. Peppermint tea and some yummy choccy biscuits. Take them away. Oh, a little bit of naughty won't do you any harm. That's your medical opinion, is it (?) Cos my overpaid doctors tell me that I've got high blood pressure and high cholesterol. (SIGHS) I was just trying to look after you, that's all. (SIGHS) Look,... that thing that happened between us the other week, it was... ill-considered. Oh. OK. I'm your employer; there needs to be boundaries. But if that's gonna be a problem with you` No, it's no problem. Cos I can find you a position elsewhere. I love my job, and I promise I won't` ...mention the thing ever again. Oh, sorry. Is this a bad time? No, no. We've just finished up. Fisher, these Springs ` where are we at? All set to go. The signing ceremony has just been confirmed with the mayor. Excellent. (CHUCKLES) Well done, Fisher, well done. See, the future is here, and in that future, wars will be fought over good drinking water, not oil. Wars, my friend ` now, that's where the real money's to be made. Yeah, well, that's why I went hard. Oh, and this just came through. Final confirmation. Well, well, well. The icing on the fortune cookie. Yum. Hey, moko. Why don't you go and get the eggs, eh? Those buggers hide them all over the garden. So you and Mum can talk? She's a clever one, this girl. Sure. Spit it out. What do you want? To spend quality time with my daughter and my father. Truebridge Hunt are negotiating a deal on the Cape, and out of the blue, you call? Bit of a coincidence. What do you know about Manawa Springs? There's a proposal for a water bottling plant about to be signed. Can you get your hands on a copy of that proposal? Maybe. All the relevant facts and figures? What's going on here, Brady? Just a gut feeling. I'd hate to see the locals ripped off by a big corporation like Truebridge Hunt. I'll make a few calls. But it's hard to let it go. . All right, so, this is Tim. 34-year-old male. RTC. Multi-vehicle... VOICES OVERLAP I think about the car crash a lot. I know he caused it and I reacted the best way possible. But it's hard to let it go. SOMBRE MUSIC When I asked what had happened to him, the doctors said he really wore the impact ` any more and things would've been much worse. They said he was lucky ` lucky I wasn't going any faster. Thank you. SOMBRE MUSIC CONTINUES It's OK. MUSIC CONTINUES It's OK. 1 Thank you. Son, you've got a big heart; some people will take advantage. Reuben's not 'people'; he's my brother. And I'd be the last person to interfere, but all I'm saying is you should be careful. And what about Toni? What about her? Well, she says you're pressuring her to stay. He's my son. Yeah, but she is tired and confused at the moment, and if you keep pushing,... (CELL PHONE RINGS) ...she could make a decision she regrets for the rest of her life. OK, it's just something to think about, that's all I'm saying. Hello? ELEI: Joe, is that you? Yeah, Mum. It's me. Joe, you need to come home. It's Reuben. (DOOR SHUTS) Good afternoon. (VELCRO TEARS) Where do you find the energy? (VELCRO TEARS) I love it. Did you get some sleep? Not really. It's like Daniel has a radar; as soon as I begin to nod off... I've started sending out invitations to everyone on your list. The christening, sweetie. Oh, thank you so much. I told you, it's what Annabelles do best. I double-checked the booking with the church. They were so friendly; made me wish I was Catholic. Oh my God. You're asleep on your feet. (DANIEL CRIES) (SIGHS) I've fed him. I've tried rocking him to sleep. Maybe I should give him a bath. I'll take care of him. You go sleep. Why are you doing this? (CRYING CONTINUES) I feel so, so terrible about what I tried to make you do. I mean, the (WHISPERS) termination. And I'm so glad you didn't, and I want to make it up to you. So I won't tell Joe you tried to pay me to go away? Well, neither of us would come out well from that little story. Anyway,... we'll be fine. (CRIES) Well, thank you. K, kid. Now it's just you and me. All good. I'll get graphics to send a mock-up through. (CELL PHONE RINGS) Excuse me. Hi. What's up? Can you talk? Yeah. The water bottling plant that Fisher told you about ` you said he was excited. Yeah, like a dog having his belly rubbed. Why? Well, I'm looking at the agreement, and the figures just don't stack up. The profit on the investment won't make it worth their while. Well, Fisher said it was huge. OK. Do you want me to dig some more? I can't ask you to do that. You don't have to. Mum, I'm here. (GROANS) What happened? Told her not to call you. Put your shirt back on. You knew Reuben owed money? The loan people did this? No, but Reuben thought he could gamble his way out of the problem. Hey. You got something to say? No. And when he couldn't pay, they beat him up. Did you call the police? And have everyone know of his shame? This is family business, no one else's. What`? What is? Reuben's gambling problem. Are you two just gonna talk about me while I'm standing`? Shut up. We're trying to sort your mess out. The cash you gave him ` it was too much temptation. Mum, I-I didn't know he had a problem. If you had been here more, you would know. Now, what's this about a christening? Huh? A christening! At a Catholic church. We got the invitation. Oh yeah. Is this really your baby, Joseph? OK, um,... there was a girl that I was, um, seeing. Her name's Toni. How long? A while ago. CHUCKLES: Joe's in trouble now. Shut up. Are you going to marry her? No. Mum, no. I'm with Annabelle. I did not raise you to be bad boys. (DEJECTED MUSIC) Can you just read the last bit back? ...executed that the seller and buyer` Oh. I can come back. Uh, no. We were just wrapping up. I think it's fine. Just finish with the appropriate sign-off, and then get it back to me for a final look. Will do. What's up? Well,... I was just thinking... how much I would really like to fuck you. Um, that's tempting, but, um, I really have to finish this proposal (CHUCKLES) and fly to Gisborne. Oh. Well, can't we, um,... multitask? Yep. Yeah, about 35 minutes; usual place. I'll be waiting. She's happy, your girl. She's calling her friend Grace. Her girlfriend, you mean. They're lovers. Yeah, yeah. Some of the staunchest women down the marae are lesbians. I bet they are. Have you found what you're looking for? Maybe. (WATER RUNS) So, what's the plan? Breeze in, use your girl as an excuse, get what you want and breeze out again? Sounds good to me. God knows you owe me. I'll support you, but only if it's in the iwi's best interest. Very noble. We've got the highest unemployment in the country. Yeah, that's sad` Everywhere I go, I see young people bored, making trouble. We need to give 'em a reason to get up, be proud. You couldn't just do this for me, could you? That'd be too much to ask. It's about community. No, it's what it's always been about ` you being the big man. And you're just as selfish as you've always been. Oh, fuck off. Looking out for yourself. Running away when you don't get what you want. You wouldn't have a clue what I've had to do. And you wouldn't have a clue about putting the needs of others first. You don't wanna help? Fine. I'll do it without you. Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Let's just calm it down, eh? Just talk about it. SHOUTS: You wanna get all touchy-feeling, happy fucking families ` well, it's not gonna happen. All I want is my company back, and I will do anything to achieve that, even if it means being in the same room as you. But do not think for one moment that I will ever forget or forgive. Moko. I knew you never cared about me or Grandpa or anyone else. I want us to be together,... for it to be like this all the time. I don't have any expectations. (CHUCKLES) I do. Big expectations, big plans, and they include you. OK. It's just complicated. (SIGHS) Well, you are married. (CHUCKLES) Marriage is like a corporation ` you make investments, you have financial and legal obligations. (SIGHS) I wish I could lie here all day. Mm, aw. Shouldn't you be...? Yeah, all right. Wanna join me in the shower? I'd love to, but I gotta make some calls. I'm supposed to be working too, you know. Sexy and motivated. (BOTH CHUCKLE) You're, like, the whole damn package. Go, shower. You don't wanna miss your flight. Ahh! (FISHER SIGHS) (DOOR SHUTS) Hey, Tom. Can I get a deadline for that press release? Well, can you find it? (CAMERA CLICKS) I'd appreciate it. (CAMERA CLICKS) Hey, um, what are you up to tomorrow? Do you wanna hook up? Celebrate my success? Hold on, Tom. I've got a christening to go to, but after that? Yeah, that works for me. Make it first thing tomorrow. I'd like to have a look at it first. (CAMERA CLICKS) Yeah. Thanks, Tom. (CAMERA CLICKS) I know. Yeah, but she totally lied to me. She's such a basic bitch. I gotta go. I'll talk to you soon. Crying to your girlfriend, are you? You wanna know who I was talking to? My dad. Ariki. I told you to stay away from him. And I don't give a shit. He told me how you got arrested for your drugs, how you lied and ruined his life, and that's why he didn't wanna know me. And now he does, and he's really great. So is Megan. That's his wife, in case you didn't know. Listen to me, Kennedy. I don't know what he told you` The truth, unlike you. He told you one side of the story, that is all. So he never went to prison because of you? I didn't have a choice. Because you're an evil user. Kennedy! Don't bother lying. Dad's right. Grandpa's right. You only care about yourself. (CELL PHONE RINGS, VIBRATES) Fisher's left for the airport. Did you find anything out? I think so. I'm sending you some screenshots. OK, thanks. You OK? I'm just great. What am I looking at? A letter of agreement between a very large Chinese corporation and Truebridge Hunt ` for water. This isn't in the agreement. Truebridge Hunt are too clever for that. Once the rights are signed over, in a couple of years, the water will be pumped into container ships and sent to China ` billions of litres. And get this ` the iwi only gets royalties from water bottled on-site. You'll be giving it away. You need to talk to the iwi, get them to pull the plug. What are you offering instead? Christ, I'm helping you out here. What does it take? I'm booked on a flight. (SIGHS) It's got nothing to do with you; it's her. We're going in the morning. Now, or I'll walk to the airport if I have to. Or hitch. I'll drive her. I'll do it. I don't want anything from you. I'll take her. Give her a chance to let off some steam. We'll talk about this when I get back. We need to move on this quickly. When I get back. (SCOFFS) (INTRIGUING MUSIC) 'Sup, Joe-Joe? I was pleased to get your call. Tell you what ` I'll pay off Reuben's debt, but I don't want you lending him any more money. I didn't force him. That's the deal. Take it or leave it. I hear you. You're concerned for your brother; that's nice. Direct credit is fine. I'll give you a personal cheque. (WHISTLES) Old-school. Sweet. I'll pay off the initial loan, plus interest at the market rate. Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah. That wasn't the deal. No, I'm not paying the interest rate you charge, or the penalties. That's what your brother agreed to ` in writing. Yeah, cos he's got a gambling problem and he's desperate. It's not my problem. It is now. (SCOFFS) You pay what's owed, or you pay the consequences. Is that a threat? Yeah. 'Course it is. Well, that wouldn't be very smart, not if you don't want your company being investigated by the FMA. Who? Financial Markets Authority. They'll have your arse. (SCOFFS) Meanwhile, we have a contract ` legal and binding. Take it. Get the hell out. I'll be seeing you soon, Joe-Joe. Oh wow. I feel so much better. Hello? Anybody home? (CHILDREN CHATTER) Annabelle, hi. (CHUCKLES) Richard. Well, hello. And, oh my God, who is this little guy? This is Daniel. His father is my boyfriend, Joe. He's PI, so, you know, cafe latte ` (CHUCKLES) goes with everything. He's adorable. I know, right? (CELL PHONE RINGS) (MYSTERIOUS MUSIC) VOICEMAIL: It's me, and I'm probably super busy, so leave a message. Hi. Daniel needs a feed, so can you call me as soon as you get this? (SIGHS) 1 JOE: Let's go. (BOXING GLOVES THWACK) (HIP-HOP MUSIC) Work, work, work. Nice. Go. Work, work, work, work, work. Again, again, again. (PANTS) OK, break. (PANTS) (VELCRO TEARS) So, um,... I got an invitation this morning for a christening. Annabelle. She's being very, um,... inclusive. She even invited my parents. Oh my gosh. So they know about Toni and baby? Well, they do now. How'd they take it? (SIGHS) Not good. (CHUCKLES) Mum's being real hard on me about, um, Reuben. I thought you helped him. Yeah, I thought so too. Did you know he had a gambling thing, like, a real problem? No. Yeah, yeah, me neither. And, like, somehow I'm supposed to be responsible for my older brother, but, like,... (CHUCKLES) how am I supposed to do that when no one ever talks about things, you know? Mm. That's what our families are like. Hey, at least your parents are still talking to you. (CHUCKLES) (CHUCKLES) There is a way you could fix that, you know. Hey, watch it, you. (BOTH CHUCKLE) Hey, hey. (CHUCKLES) (ZIP WHIZZES, CELL PHONE RINGS) It's Toni. Yeah. Of course. Hey. What's up? Hi. Is Annabelle with you? No, I haven't seen her. Well, she's taken Daniel, and she's not answering her calls. Talk to me, Fisher. Where are we up to? Yeah, it's going really well. Yeah. Just having a bit of a meet and greet, and then we're heading back to council chamber for signing. You've done well to cut the red tape. Full credit. Well, thanks, Lloyd. I appreciate you saying so. No, I'm not blowing smoke. There's a bonus in this for you. (CHUCKLES) Sounds excellent. Yeah. Yeah, look, I'd better get back to it. Tie it up. Get your fanny back here; we'll aim for Shanghai next week. Will do. OK, bye. Sorry about that. OK, let's do this. (CAMERA CLICKS) (ROCK MUSIC) Nige. Sorry to interrupt, but we need to have a bit of a talk. And you'll want to hear this, Hemi. What's going on? You blokes remember my daughter, Brady? She has nothing to do with the company any more. Now, there's a few things about this deal we might want to consider before we sign anything. Whatever she said, she's lying. Be careful what you say, mate. Now, this bloke forgot to mention that they're planning to sell our water ` in bulk ` to China. (LAUGHS) Rumours and lies. That right? (CHUCKLES) What, a couple of Greenie activists that are, what, afraid of progress? I have a copy of a letter of agreement ` says you're the one telling porkies. You might what to have a read before this deal goes any further. This is bullshit. We have an agreement. Not yet, we don't. Gentlemen. (DRAMATIC MUSIC) (DANIEL CRIES) Oh, thank God. (DOOR SHUTS) What the hell have you been doing? We just went for a walk. He must be starving. Well, he started to grizzle, but that's why we came home. How could you do that ` take him without telling me? Shh. You were sleeping. (DANIEL CONTINUES CRYING) Everything OK? Yeah, I think so. Why wouldn't it be? I've been driving around, looking for you. Oh, for God's sake. No, no. You weren't here. You didn't leave a message. You didn't answer your phone. And, oh my God. You thought what? 'Crazy Annabelle. Can't have a baby of her own, so she's flipped out, and she's stolen one.' Don't be stupid. But I am, aren't I? So stupid I even tried to be nice to my boyfriend's dirty little slut of an ex-girlfriend. Stop that. You're so right. You can fuck right off ` both of you. Hang on a sec. No, she's right. This is crazy. No, Toni` It's never gonna work. Toni, come` I'll get my shit together and get back to New York. See you fullas there. OK. Gonna be a long hui down at the marae tonight. Good luck. Why didn't you make us an offer for the water? I don't have that kind of money. You must know people who do. I've seen the projections; it's not gonna make anyone rich. But it could contribute ` jobs, self-esteem. It could mean something. Make you look important. Oh, for God's sakes, girl. I let my anger rule me; people got hurt. I drove my family away. Now you're doing it to your daughter. I am nothing like you. Are you sure about that? I want to change things with you; make up for what I did, but you... won't give an inch. If I could find investors, and if we went into partnership with the iwi, what would that mean? You'd have to get involved,... stay involved. So you'd have more control. So I'd have you back under different terms. I could start a conversation with the iwi. I could make some calls. Shit, Dad. (POIGNANT MUSIC) You didn't have a clue? What, you let Brady completely blindside us? Well, she obviously had local connections she could draw on. Oh, you know that now, do you, huh? 20/20 hindsight (?) is the bane of my life. Well, don't stand there like a village bloody idiot. Go do something about it. Maybe I should. (TENSE MUSIC) You like that, baby? You know I do. (PANTS) (CELL PHONE VIBRATES) Oh fuck. Shit timing, bro. Are you alone? Take a walk, eh? Have a little fun on me. Sure thing. I'm listening. Let's meet up. There's something I need you to take care of ` once and for all. Sounds expensive. I don't care what it costs. 1 I'm going out, so don't worry. I won't be here to frighten baby. Toni's gone home. And you're blaming me for that? I tried so hard to be supportive, and you threw it right back in my face. She's made up her mind, OK? She's going back to New York. That's sad. But maybe it's for the best. How? How is that for the best? Baby Daniel is gorgeous, but he'll never be ours. (REVERSING TRUCK BEEPS OUTSIDE) We'll make a baby of our own ` a real one, one we won't have to share. MALIA: Joe. Perfect (!) Sorry to interrupt. There is something going on outside. (OMINOUS MUSIC) (MECHANICAL WHIRRING) Whoa, whoa. That's my car. You're the guarantor to your brother's loan. We can take any reasonable step to recoup what's owing. Man, I didn't sign anything, so you have no right. Tell that to your mates at the FMA or whatever the fuck it's called. Please, mate. Just don't` ANNABELLE: Joe! Look out! (GRUNTS) (GRUNTS) (MECHANICAL WHIRRING) Hey. Stop it! (BOTH GRUNT) (GRUNTS) STRAINED: Leave my family alone! Joe! Joe, no! (BREATHES HEAVILY) You're an animal, mate. I shouldn't have lost it like that. It's all this pressure you're under. You are not responsible for your brother or Toni. Look, I am. All right? I am. That's just something that I can't change. SOFTLY: Of course. We're both responsible. I'll apologise to Toni,... do anything I can. SOFTLY: Thank you. I'm home. Yeah, I know, we've got a christening to get to. Is Kennedy ready? Actually, a bit of a snafu. But she got in OK yesterday? Oh, yes. Then she left first thing. Oh, she's sulking cos we had a fight. She's probably at Grace's. She's not. She's moved out. Thanks, guys, for letting me stay. It's our pleasure. (ALL CHUCKLE) It's gonna be so good getting to know you, kid. Yeah. Hello. Oh, here's trouble. Jeez. Oh, hi, guys. Hello. Giving up your bed tonight. (ALL CHUCKLE) (ORGAN MUSIC PLAYS) Awesome. OK, great. Thanks. Hey, man. Oh, congratulations. Thank you, bro. (CHUCKLES) Hey. Hi. Thanks for coming, guys. Oh, I'm just stoked to be invited. Well, we're family, and we're all making an effort, aren't we? Yeah. Hey, you guys have been great. Thank you. Wassup, wassup?! Stud of the moment. Hi. Where is the little uso? Running around? Little mini-me. Oh, um, he's with Toni and her parents. They're on their way. Sweet. What about your family? Nah, they couldn't make it. Well, at least I'm here. Shall we go inside? Um, I might wait for Toni. You guys go, though. OK. (OMINOUS MUSIC) Joe. Hey. (CHUCKLES) This is my mother, Janine, and my father, Barry. Nice to meet you. I'm Annabelle, Joe's partner. Pleased to meet you. Annabelle helped organise all of this. That's very... open-minded. - That's us. (CHUCKLES) - (CELL PHONE RINGS) - Ooh, sorry. Catering for the after-match function. I should... Toni tells me you offered to do the right thing. Dad. We might have a bit of a chat later. OK. Sorry about that. Nah, it's all good. The thing is I know I've been a bit all over the place lately, but you've been really great. And Annabelle. I know she means well. Well, you know what I want. I do, and so... I've decided to stay. Oh, that is so cool. (CHUCKLES) OK, yeah, great. So let's talk after the ceremony. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Cool, cool. Sweet. SOFTLY: Hi. How are you going? (CHUCKLES) Kennedy, call me back, you hear me? This is totally unacceptable. We are rather late. We'll be there for the party. (KNOCKING ON DOOR) What the hell? Kennedy's right ` we do need a maid. Didn't think we could afford one. Well, things are looking up. What the hell are you playing at, woman? (SCOFFS) Lloyd, I really don't have time... I'll meet you in the car. Are you sure it's safe? Quite sure. You're not gonna get away with this, you conniving female dog. I think I already have. (SCOFFS) Well, don't blame me. It's your fault for hiring a loser like Fisher. Or maybe I should thank you. Water is the future, and I'll be part of it. You. You made a bloody deal. Well, me and the iwi. I am tangata whenua after all. You're a... Bitch? Treacherous whore? The C word? I mean, come on, Lloyd, call me something I haven't heard before. Christ almighty!

That was amazing, so inspiring. Wasn't it? There's nibbles and tea in the church hall, and some bubbles. (CHUCKLES) We need to get home. Janine's got a headache. OK. Toni tells me she's come to her senses. Yeah, maybe. I'll be expecting you to provide financial support. Oh, definitely. Definitely, sir. Come. Oh! I am so sorry. I wouldn't have missed it for the world. (SINISTER MUSIC) Lloyd had a heart attack. Oh my God. He's still with us ` in the cardiac unit. MALIA: We'll go there now. I'm sure he'll be fine. (CHUCKLES) Did I hear that right? Old Man River had a heart attack? Who knew he had one? Exactly. (RIFLE CLICKS) JOE: Oh. NANCY: Ooh. (DANIEL CRIES) Isn't it great that we can put our differences aside on a special day like today? (CRYING CONTINUES) Eh? (CHUCKLES) Oh, was it something I said? He's probably just hungry.
