"You're Roger Rogerson." "Yes." "Guilty." "Disgraced former detective." "I don't believe everything I read." "One, two, three!" "Mickel Hurley, one of the richest crims in town." "This was a chance to get him onside." " Switch this for us, will ya, mate?" " There you are!" "You're beautiful, man!" "Hey?" "What do I owe ya?" "Well, not that." "Not a kiss, I tell you that for free." "Whatever it is, I'll double it." "I promise you, right?" "I'll get both of you." "I don't need a house." " I'm just talking about a pup." " Yeah, of course we need a house." "I don't mean to be rude, but I can't see anybody lending you money." "There's a slot with me." "No offence, mate, but..." "I've always drawn the line with dealing drugs." "I'm bringing you an opportunity." "What you're bringing me is a shitload of trouble." "Yeah, well, he's not just a biker." "He's smart." " And he's a biker." " No, yeah, but that's a good thing." "Hate to say I told you so, Roger." " Yeah." " But I bloody well did." "Those bikers are animals." "Tar babies." "You're better off out of that one." "Well, it leaves me with a big problem." " What's that?" " Money." "Is your offer still open?" "Well, the biggest snake in this game is the Michael Hurley organisations." "Remember that name, Michael Hurley." "Standen is a poxy little customs clerk." "No, no, no." "Don't underestimate him." "We finally tracked him down to Avoca Beach, a house up there." "And, at a certain point," "I noticed the bathroom window lifting up." "The barrel of a gun coming out." "And that's when he made a fatal mistake." "He stuck his head up." "So I blew it off." "Now, you can do quite a lot of damage with a Remington 870 at 5ft, and there wasn't a whole lot left of Philip Archibald Weston." "In fact, when his, uh..." "When his old mum had to identify him in the morgue, all she had to go off was a set of ingrown toenails." " Les." " Wayne." "Give him the suitcase." "Nah, I usually deliver to someone else..." "I don't want to know, mate." "Just give it to Les." "Look, just do what he says, mate." "Mickel says the bags have been coming in light." "No, not from me, they're not." " From you." "You've been skimming." " No." "First, just enough to feed your habit, then you start stealing." " No." " Hey?" "Selling on the streets." "You look nervous." "Are you nervous?" "You don't have to be." " You know who I am?" " Yeah." "Yeah, Roger." "Roger Rogerson, yep." "Good to meet you." "Oh, fuck." "Wait!" "No, listen." "Stop!" "Wait." "Wait." "Just..." "Shit!" "♪ Some folks are born made to wave the flag ♪" "♪ Ooh, they're red, white and blue ♪" "♪ And when the band plays 'Hail to the Chief' ♪" "♪ Ooh, they point the cannon at you, Lord ♪" "♪ It ain't me, it ain't me... ♪" "All right!" "Stop the bloody car!" "You've got two choices tonight, Wayne." "You get clean, you deliver every package unopened, or you move someplace you think I'll never find you and pray." "You good with that?" " Yes." "Yes!" " Hmm?" " Hey." " Hi." "You're here late." "What are you doing?" "What are you working on?" "I'm getting all Hurley's known associates, looking for any outstanding warrants we could use as leverage." "Here." "This bloke is interesting." "Wayne Crofton." "Completely vanished." "There's no address." "I mean, there's nothing." "So he's either dead or they're making a false identity for him." "I know who you are." "You're Julie Weinthall, aren't you?" "Yeah." "Well, that's really good work, Julie." " Thank you." " Wanna put Roger Rogerson in there?" "I already have." "Really?" "Welcome to the team." "Thank you." "Where is he?" "Oh, well, he's on time." "Marco's going to wait over there." "Roger's gonna stay right here." "I have partners overseas who can supply unlimited quantities of MDMA and as much pseudoephedrine as you can use." "What we need is to get it into the country." "I'm told you can do that." "Allegedly." "Of course, allegedly." "See, I've got my people here but they're not too many and they're not very good." "We'd like to use yours." "And I get?" "Oh, pretty much whatever you want." "We'll give it to you wholesale." "You bring it in, distribute it." " Hogan, is it?" " That's right." "No, it's not." "It's James Henry Kinch." "And you are?" "You did a little job in Brixton in the '80s, late '80s, and you walked." "Indemnity." "You're a snitch." "Now, you know, I've got nothing against snitches," "I just don't want to get into bed with them." "I don't know about you." "Perhaps you should fuck off." "Jesus, mate, I might have just cost you a lot of money." "You might have just saved me 20 years in Long Bay." "Well, yeah." "Now I want this prick shut down." "All right?" "You'll find out who his dealers are and feed those names to Standen." "Well, I can do that." "Oh, right." "And how's that?" "Oh, well, the muscle's name." "He's a bloke called Marco Ensaldi, so I'll just get the dealers' names from him." "And how..." "How are you gonna do that?" "Oh, well, I'll just tell him if he doesn't tell me," "I'll kill him." "Hey, Marco." "Oh." "Oh, shit." "Oh." "Well, that was the easy bit, Marco." "Now you're gonna give me some names or I'll cut your fuckin' throat." "Right?" "Joe Kensell was a New South Wales cop and an old mate, attached to Standen's Crime Commission." " Mate." " Hey, Rog." "Not that I'd get any thanks for it, but I fed Kinch's dealers to him, for Standen." "Some of these look familiar." "Yeah, well, they're dealers, aren't they?" "Looks like somebody's trying to put the competition out of business." "Do you care?" "Nuh, not if they're real." "Bugger him." "Yeah, screw him." "Put your hands on your head!" "Hands on the head!" " Boss." " Right." "You're stuffed, mate." "[sirens]" "Put your hands in the air!" "Hands in the air!" "That's four years." " And that's... that's ten years." " They're not mine." "I know they're not yours." "They're Kinch's." "And you're gonna tell me where to find him." " Step aside, please." " What's going on?" "Excuse me." "Right, get into it." "So, how about you help us out so I can help you?" " There's no need to be gentle here." " I'll tip it off." "I'm Mark Standen with the New South Wales Crime Commission." " Are you James Kinch?" " No." "My name's Hogan." "No, you're James Kinch and you use "Hogan" as an alias." "You got a warrant?" "We do." "We're just going to have a look around." "Make sure you look in there, please!" "Thank you." "Maybe we should keep this off the books, huh?" "Yeah, you know what?" "It's a little bit late for that." "But the way this plays out is exactly up to you." "All right, do you want to cuff Mr. Kinch, please?" "You're looking at ten years." "I'll aim for 20 and I'll get it." "But here's the deal." "I can arrange indemnity." "I can create you a new identity and pay your expenses while you start a new life." "Now, that can be here or overseas." "You continue working for yourself, feeding me information." "Just say "yes" or "no"." "Yes." "Good." "What can you give me on Michael Hurley?" "Nothing." "I met him the once." "No, I know that's a lie." "He gave us your dealers." "That's why you're here." "Yeah, I figured as much." "But like I told you, I just met him the once." "And what about Roger Rogerson?" "I just met him the once, too." " With Hurley." " This is remarkably disappointing, then, Mr. Kinch, because with the information that you're giving me, you're fucking useless." "$1 million in cash, and 200kg of ecstasy, in a storage unit in Miranda." "That, um, player enough for you?" "Are suppliers an ongoing source?" "Mmm." "Are they domestic?" "You wanna give me a clue, Mr. Kinch?" "The Netherlands." "Biggest synthetic drug manufacturers in the world." "But that's all you're getting, until we make a deal." "You get indemnity, past and going forward." "These charges are no-billed." "And you get your passport." "You continue doing business and feeding me information." "Yes?" "Who are they?" "The Breda Group." "Peter Dekker and Ron Huklander." "Very good, Mr. Kinch." "Mmm." "You need another drink." "You know what?" "I'm driving." "Not tonight." "Just..." "just a little bit more." " Cheers." " Cheers." "You know, I knew your dad." "Yeah." "He was one of the best." "Yes, he was." "I can tell you this." "As a policeman, he would have been really, really proud of you." "[exhales]" "[moans]" "_" "Ahh, thank you." "Can I ask you something?" " Is that a knock-off?" " Are you kidding me?" " It's 100 grand US." " I'm in the wrong job." "Don't take this the wrong way, Mark, but it's yours." "Don't go there, Mr. Kinch." "All right, Mark." "Whatever I make, whatever I do, even though" " I'm working with you, it's mine, yeah?" " Yes." "As long as you continue to feed me information on the Breda people." "But you understand this." "Now, you drop off the radar and I'll have Interpol and every police force in the world looking for you." "You won't last a month." "Good boy." "Did you see this one's back up for sale?" " Yeah." " Hmm." "Could we find a way of cashing in our super, or..." "Oh, love, we can't cash in our super." "I mean, they took my super." "They cancelled it." "Well, what about a loan?" "How much do you think we could borrow?" "Well, I can't borrow anything, can I?" "I mean, I'm bloody Roger Rogerson." " The apartment's fine, darl." " It's not fine." " It is." " We've got dogs." "We need a yard." "We need a home." "Everybody needs a home." " Okay." "Come on." "Yep." " This is bullshit." " Let's go." " This is fuckin' bullshit." "Come on." "Beer o'clock for you." "Jesus." "Jesus." "What's that?" "Well, what's it look like?" "Well, what's it for?" "I mean, you..." "You've already paid me." " Well, I'm paying you again." " Why?" "Well, you're on a retainer." "That's a bonus." "Mate, I don't need a bonus." "You've paid me enough, all right?" "Well, what's enough?" "What's too much?" "What's trust worth?" "Mate." "Sometimes it's a problem, you know, where to stash all this bloody stuff." "Why don't you buy the missus a brand-new hat?" " Mickel." " Get her..." "Get her..." " Mate." " Get her a pair of shoes." " Cut it out, all right?" " And why don't you get yourself a nice haircut, hmm?" " Go down Double Bay." " [laughs]" " Catch a cab." "Treat yourself, hmm?" " [laughs]" "_" "Congratulations, Mr. Rogerson." "It's a great buy." "Oh, I cannot believe it's actually happened." " I love it, Roger." "I love it!" " [laughs]" "Hey, will you do something for me?" "Anything." "Will you marry me?" "Yes!" "This is the best day of my life." "It's actually the best day of my life." "_" "Why are you always kissing me?" "I kiss you because I love you and you're solid." "Stop kissing me, mate." "Jesus Christ!" "All right?" "You know why they call 'em our better halves?" " 'Cause they're better than us." " 'Cause they're our better half." "They're better than us." "They're too good for us." "Yes, I know, mate." "They're too good for you." "She's too good for you." "You know that?" "I know she is, I know." "She's always going to be better than you, you know that?" "She's better than you." "Yeah, all right, mate." "All right." "Jesus Christ." "Hey, everyone, bloody shut up!" "Speech!" " Now..." " Ow!" "Piss off!" "So, uh, I've just been advised by a bloke whose opinion I occasionally respect that the lady I've just married is too good for me." "But, as always, I was miles ahead of him." "I've known that from the moment I laid eyes on her." "My beautiful wife." "Now, I've had a..." " a somewhat chequered past..." " No!" "...but I just wanted to let you all know that, um, that's all finished." "The wild days are over." "Better not be, Rog!" "Hope not." "Every..." "Every other..." "Every other Thursday." "Cheers!"

"Standen wants to have a talk." "Not now, Joe." "All right?" "I'm right." "Well, what's he gonna do to me?" "Just be good to that girl of yours." "You think this is a joke, Mickel?" "You think this is funny?" "Grown men bearing their arse in the middle of the street, in the middle of the day." "Disgraceful." " [laughs]" " You do think it's funny." "Oh, yes." "Yes, I do." "It is." "I mean, you've been harassing me for 20 years, haven't ya?" "And what'd I ever do to you?" "You're a criminal." " I'm a criminal, am I?" " Yes."

"I mean, who am I?" "Alan Bond?" "I'm nobody, mate." " I'm a battler." " A battler?" " Mmm." " You are the furthest fucking thing from a battler, Mickel, all right?" "You're worth $20 million, that I know of." "And that's enough for ten lifetimes." "The rest of us have got to scrimp and save to pay the mortgage, to put our kids through school." "You haven't worked an honest day in your life." " Is that so?" " Yes." "I mean, are you jealous, man?" "Are you?" "You wish you were me, eh?" " Jealous." " Eh?" "You sad, poor bastard." "Let me give you a news flash, Hurley." "I am in a position, me, Mark Standen, is in a position to take your house, to take your cars, to take your cash, to take your furniture." "In a position to take away your kids' education." "I can put you out on the street." "Well, you can try, can't ya?" "You listen very carefully 'cause I'm only gonna offer this once." "You give me Rogerson and Mara, you make a case against them, and you get to keep half your assets and I'll give you indemnity." "And then you get to walk out of here still a rich man." "I walk out of here like you?" "Like a bloody midget?" "Rogerson and Mara are going to get the same offer." "Well, why don't you do that?" "You'll get the same answer." "Hello, Roger." "Know why I'm here?" "Nuh." "Well, you give me Hurley and I'll get you indemnity." "Indemnity from what?" "I'm retired." "Now, Roger, when I moved to the drug unit in the Towers at Redfern, I really looked up to you." "Everyone did." "You won the Peter Mitchell trophy." "It's the highest honour we can give." "And you fuckin' threw it all away." "They took it away." "Yes, they did, for the shit that you did." "What, doing my job?" "What are you doing, Roger?" "Are you trying to intimidate me?" "Don't bother." "You're an old man and you are in no position." "Then why are you feeling intimidated?" "The Police Integrity Commission in 1999." "Do you remember that?" "Oh, it's a bit of a blur, mate." "You lied under oath, Roger." "Hmm." "Ancient history." "It's perjury." "And it's current, if I say it's current." "And for that, son, you're going to get two to three years." "Now, I understand you've got this pretty new wife." "Good for you." "Do you think she's going to wait for you?" "Yeah, she'll wait for me." "What about yours?" "Would she wait?" "See ya, Roger." "What's going on?" "Sorry for the drama, Roger." "Orders." "Yeah, well, this is a bit fuckin' over the top, isn't it, mate?" "Yeah, it is." "You're under arrest for perjury, before the Police Integrity Commission." "You weak prick." "I'm sorry, but I've gotta put these on." "You gotta be kidding me." "Anne Melocco, you're under arrest for perjury." "What?" "You're joking!" "Leave her alone, ya filthy scumbags!" "This is a stitch-up!" "Get your hands off her!" "Leave her alone!" "Don't say a word!" " Roger!" " Do you understand me?" "Don't say a word!" "I'm wearing everything." " Roger." " You miserable scumbag!" "You fuckin' filth!" "Ya deadbeat!" "Ya hear me?" "Deadbeat!" "You're the lowest of the low." "I didn't know it at the time, but Standen had his own problems." "Turns out there is a God." "180, 190, 200." " In one month, 220,000." " Yes." " You understand?" " Yes, yes, yes." "Yes." " Hey." " Hi." "I got something for you." "Oh, my god, Mark!" " How expensive was this?" " Doesn't matter." "Oh, my god, it's beautiful." "Put your chin up." "Let me put it on." "Let me see you." "Do you know how beautiful you are?" "I'm just checking in." "How're you doing?" "Yeah, I'm good." "How're you holding up in there?" "Oh, yeah, do it on me ear." "Is the treatment working?" "Oh, who knows?" "It will or it won't." "Anyway, I'm the one who's walking around out here looking at all these, um, topless girls, so I'm not complaining." "What topless girls?" "Yeah, I'm, uh..." "I'm down at the beach." "Blue skies." "Sunshine." "There's three of them." "Hang on, yeah, another one's turned up and she's stripping off." "I can't..." "Jesus, got all the saints, Roger." "You should see this piece." "Well, I can't, can I?" "I mean, they're incredible." "Are they real?" "Huge, those things." "She's gotta be a model, this one." "Blonde, chocolate skin." "I mean, I can't tell if that's..." "One things for certain, though, she's waxed it." "You right in there, mate?" "Do you need anything?" "Yeah, well, a beer'd be good." "Yeah, a beer'd be good." "Yep." "Soon." " Hello." " I've got a present for you." " Really?" " Wayne Arthur Crofton, addict, dealer and confidante of Michael Hurley." "Got him with the goods." "You are an addict, Wayne, and withdrawal's going to be really tough where you're headed." "No, I'm clean." "Really?" "You'll go back in jail." "In a month, you'll be flyblown and useless again." " Everyone knows that." "You know that." " Okay." " What do you want?" " I want Mickel Hurley." " Nah, can't do it." " Okay, you can book him." "There's a stash of cocaine. 7kg." "Buried." " So what?" " I can..." "I can give you some of the dealers." "I just can't give you Mickel." "The buried cocaine." "What were you going to do with that?" "Break it into 0.5kg lots and pass it onto the dealers." "Right, well, you can do that." "What, put it back on the street?" "We'll get it back." "We'll get most of it back." "Where is it?" "Ahh, Wahroonga." "A park." "But I'm gonna need my gear." " Your gear?" " Yeah." "Heat sealers, vacuum packs, scales." "Dig it up." "Give him what he needs." "Well done." "Mark." "We can't do this." "We've gotta swap the cocaine for" " lactose or something..." " No, no, no, no, all right?" "I want them dealing, right?" "This thing's gotta be watertight." "Listen, we arrest a dozen of these dealers caught in the act and I guarantee you, six of them are gonna roll on Hurley and Mara." "So just get it done." "_" "Michael Nicholas Hurley, you're under arrest for the importation of a prohibited substance and the conspiracy to distribute that substance and money laundering." " Well, fuck ya." " No, it's fuck you, Mickel." "You see, I've got you, your mate, Les Mara, all your dealers, and Roger Rogerson." "I got the lot of ya." "So you, my friend, are going to die in jail." "[cheering]" "What you've done, collectively, is nothing short of remarkable." "You have literally taken tonnes of drugs off the streets." "Yeah!" "And that is absolutely incredible." "You are the best group of people that I've ever worked with and that is quite an achievement because, in the course of my career," "I have worked with some very, very capable people." "So congratulations to everyone and here's to us." "I don't want them to pay for anything, you understand?" "So anything they want, you just put it on my card." "All right?" "Yes, that'll be $220,000." " You'll get it next week, right?" " Now." "Listen, I'm working here at the moment so, like I said, next week..." "Well, if you want, we can discuss it in front of them." "Well, if you like, we can discuss it at the New South Wales Crime Commission." "Hmm?" "Next week." "Next time, I won't come." "He'll come, and he doesn't speak English." "Excuse me." "Mark Standen." "About what?" "Yes, look, there's still some on the street but so fucking what?" "It is cocaine." "It never killed anyone." "Well, you can tell the Commissioner I said, "So what?"" "Right, no one else could have done this but me, right?" "Mark Standen." "[gasping] Mark, are you okay?" "Canberra eunuchs talking about..." "They're talking about an official reprimand." "A reprimand." " Screw them." " Mark!" " Hello, Mark." " Where are you?" " Dubai." " All right, so, we need to talk." " Sure." "What's up?" " No, no, no, no, in person, all right?" "Can you organise a first-class ticket and a suite?" "Of course I can, Mark." " Great." "See ya soon." " Righto." " Is Roger still in jail?" " Yep." "I don't know how you stand it." "Stand what?" "Him." "Roger in jail again." "Better than serving kebabs in a bloody Lebanese takeaway." "_" "Pardon my French, but this is fucked." "Jesus, I've corrupted you." "Oh, periodic detention in a Women's Correctional Centre, it's enough to corrupt anybody." " How bad is it?" " That's not the bad part." "The bad part's at home, during the week, alone." "With the dogs." " How are the doggies?" " I mean, don't you just..." "Don't you sometimes wish we were just ordinary?" "Never." "Yeah, neither do I. I don't want you to change." "What?" "But..." "Well, I..." "It's so embarrassing..." "I just need to know that we're in this together, Roger." "I need to know that you miss me as much as I miss you." "Course I miss you." "Course I do." "_" "Welcome to Dubai, Mark." "There's a high roller casino upstairs." "It's 50 grand to buy in." "That's yours." "It's okay if you lose it." "It's only per diem." "Right." "It's a gift from our friends in the Breda group, and so are the girls." "This is Gemma, and that's Heidi." "Oh, I never can tell." "Well, I'm gonna need to, um, take back some intelligence to, uh, justify the meal." "Of course." "There's some names and some places." "They're dispensable." "What exactly did you tell the Breda people?" "That I could search the world over and not find a better partner." "2IC of the Crime Commission, 20-30 years' experience." "You probably know this business better than we do." "Well, I guarantee that I do." "Mark... they would love it if you could set up something regular." "You know, a couple of times a year." "There'd be two, three mill in it for you, every time, net." "What we would need to find is an importer." "Someone clean." "No record." "Now, do you know someone like that?" "I used to work with a woman who's, um..." "She's married to one." "Someone like that." "He's, uh..." "He's in food." "Perfect." "Bingo." "Hmm." "Listen, um, I'm going to need some money up front." "Um, I'm in hock with a loan shark." "How much?" "$1 million." "One mill?" "Sure." "We can do that." "Fellas." "See you next time." "What, have you come over to the dark side, have you, Joe?" "Nah, not me, Rog." "But if you even jaywalk, I'll have you back in there like that." "Any word on Mickel?" "Yeah, he's still in hospital." "Yeah, it doesn't look good." "They gonna give him compassionate release?" "Nah." "Nah." "Bloody Standen." "Nah, he's got his own issues." "Gambling word is there's a loan shark hunting him down for a couple of hundred grand." " Good." " Yeah, I thought you'd like that." "[machines beeping]" "Get us some water, will ya?" "Please?" "Yeah, sure, mate." " Sorry to intrude." "Roger." " Dan Irvine." "Oh." "Uh, Julie Weinthall, Roger Rogerson." "Ahh, you're Robert Weinthall's daughter?" " Yeah." " Ahh, I knew your dad." " He was a good bloke." " Are you gonna let me out of here?" "You gonna let me out of here to die?" "No, um, we're not here for that." "There's no release." "You want me to give up my friends?" "Well, the only one that I'll give you... is Standen." "He's dirty." "That dealer that you turned, Wayne Crofton, he put 7kg of cocaine on the streets." "And you, you only ever got one back. [cough]" "Yeah." "Well, he sold the rest." "And he split the profits with Standen." "Standen was in trouble with the bookies." "Well, I don't believe that, so..." "No, you wouldn't, would ya?" "Well, uh, thank you, Mr. Hurley." "Sorry to have troubled you." "See you later." "What was that?" "I mean, when..." "When were you gonna tell me?" "What?" "My wife is in jail 'cause of the prick, doing weekend detention, you know, for a couple of fibs to the Integrity Commission." "Yeah, I know that."
