"Standing up!" "Might need an escort out of here." "I've got one." "A lieutenant colonel's asked me to have a drink with him." "He's sending a helicopter, taking me down the coast to Vung Tau." "You allowed to bring a friend?" "Maybe." "How'd you go?" "Oh, I'm knackered." "Been out all day doing dental work on the local villages." " It's good PR apparently." " You trained in dental work?" " Mm-mm." "I just do what I'm told!" " Any word on your brother?" "He's been clearing mines for the Yanks." "Due back today." "He's gonna go nuts when he sees you here!" "Oh, it's probably my lift." " There's more than one." " Could be a dust-off." "What's a dust-off?" "It's Okay." "Okay." "You'll be Okay!" "We'll get you to a hospital soon." " Stop the bleeding!" " I'm trying!" "Pressure!" "Apply pressure!" "Use your hands." "Hey." "It's your brother's convoy." "Hey." "Hey." "Hey, I'm looking for Bernie Maguire." " Why?" " I'm his sister." " You're Viv?" "Fair dinkum!" " Yeah." "Do you know where he is?" "I haven't seen him for three days." "C'mon, boys, move on!" "♪ You think that I don't feel love ♪" "♪ But what I feel for you is real love ♪" "♪ In other's eyes I see reflected ♪" "♪ A hurt, scorned, rejected love child ♪" "♪ Different from the rest. ♪" " Most people like to look away." " Not me." "I find it fascinating." "How overdue is your period?" "About four days." "Both times I fell pregnant before, I could tell the next day." "Both times?" "The first was a miscarriage." "And you could tell you were pregnant." " Dunno how." "I just felt different." " Do you feel that way now?" "Yes." "But... that might be wishful thinking." "Have you made any plans, in case the test is positive?" " What kind of plans?" " With the father." "Seems a little premature." "Doesn't hurt to think about it." "Being a single mother can be tough." " At my age?" " At any age." "I have money from the divorce, and the idea of not having to depend on a man is quite exciting." "Men can be fun to have around." "Yes, I'd like to keep a selection in my cupboard." "You know, in other circumstances, I think we could've been friends." "It's beautiful." "Look at it." "I have looked at it." "It's not me!" "What?" "Of course it is!" "Look at that." "I want something simple." "Simple's for going grocery shopping, not getting married!" "Martha?" "Urgent pathology." " Sure." " Joan?" " That's... beautiful." " Yeah." "She thinks it looks like a cake!" "Which is a bit coarse, to be honest." " Who's minding the creche today?" " I've got two assistants." "Two now!" "She's a child-minding tycoon, haven't you heard?" "Mm, you'll need a bigger place soon." "Yeah, actually I was thinking of putting another room on." "You should talk to Jim." "He's really good at that sort of thing." "Yeah, I will." "Thank you." "This is a surprise." "I've brought in some of my old coats and jumpers for" " the fundraising auction." " Oh, that's generous of you." "Yeah, nowhere to put them at Mum's." "Be nice to join the hospital Auxiliary Committee." "Well, good." "Then I might see you around here more often." "Mm." "We were clearing mines out of some North Vietnamese tunnels." "Bernie went down a hole and never came out." "I reckon he went in and just kept going." "It's no surprise." "He's had a head full of demons for months." "I have to find him." "I need to know that he's alright." "If he doesn't wanna be found, it won't be easy." "Saigon's chaos." "You think that's where he is?" "That's where I'd go if I wanted to get lost." "Hey, I'm Harry, by the way." "Yeah, Bernie said you were a cutie." "He wasn't wrong." "How do you like the resort so far?" "It's wild." "Yeah!" "At least it's dry." "You've just come after six months of solid rain." "Can we get a beer in there?" "Uh, that's where they keep the North Vietnamese prisoners, love." "Yeah, humour's thin on the ground." "I've got beers back in my tent." "Tell me about Bernie's demons." "Just the usual shit." "Come on!" "Let's get drunk." "If you haven't gone into labour by this evening," "I'll induce you in the morning." "You'll feel much better after that." "Doctor, Mrs Brady thought she was having a caesarean section." "Yes, well, a natural birth is always the better option." "But with her pre-eclampsia, it would make..." "We discussed that." "The case is mild." "Your case is mild, nothing to worry about." "Okay?" "We'll see you later." "What do you think you're doing?" "With her high blood pressure, there's a risk that..." "And do you think arguing the case in front of her is going to help her blood pressure?" "You know, whatever personal animus you're feeling towards me, you need to put that aside and be more professional." "Professional?" "I was thinking of the patient, not you." "Does your husband have a trial date yet?" "Nine weeks tomorrow." "I just..." "I wanted to take out this door and make an archway so I've got a separate space for the babies to sleep in." "Have you spoken to the owner of the building about this work?" "Yes." "He asked me to find out how much it would cost." "Well, it's a load-bearing wall, so you're gonna need a new RSJ just across here." "Mm." "Would... would you be able to do the work?" "After my trial?" "Sure." "Can I give you a rough estimate tomorrow?" " Yeah." " And, Jim..." "Sorry I'm early." "I have to get home." "My husband's looking for me." "It's Okay." "It's alright, Mandy." " He doesn't know I'm working." " Okay." " He can't find out." " I won't tell him." "Luce, can you get Baby Jennifer's bag together for Mandy, please?" "Thank you." "Sorry." "Jim, I never got a chance to apologise properly for what happened." "Oh, forget it." "Nothing happened." " It was improper." " What was?" "Thank you." "I've had complaints from the wards about the standard of washing that's been received from the laundry." "You've all had ample time to learn how to do it properly." "If there are any further complaints, you will be punished." " Understood?" " Yes, Matron." "Where's your pillowcase?" "In the wash." "I had a bleeding nose." "So get another one from the linen press, you stupid girl!" "She's not stupid." "You're just a witch." "Obviously my evil powers aren't strong enough to improve your manners." "What do you call this?" "Never said I had to give my bed a name." "I've told you how to make your bed." "Do it now." "Properly." "No." "You're dismissed." "To the laundry." "Not you!" "Out!" "You think your rudeness is funny?" "It's not." "Do it again, and do it right." "You can't make me." "I am the sole arbiter of what happens to you and the illegitimate child you're carrying." "If you want the next few months to be a deeply miserable experience, you're going the right way about it." "Your mattress will be removed." "Come and see me when you're ready to make your bed." "Where am I supposed to sleep?" "Remember the evidence that's been presented to the court." "This is a man who threatened to kill me, and used that threat against my wife, in an attempt to steal my son." "My beautiful son." "Who is with us here today." "Ladies and gentlemen, if Greg Mathieson hadn't had a heart condition, he would still be alive today." "Did I want to kill him?" "No, I did not." "I wanted my family back." "Well, I'm sold." "The lawyer says I need to practise my side of the story." "Oh." "Win the hearts and minds." "Is he going to put you on the stand?" "Only if he has to." "How was your day?" "Good." "I think I had a win." "I have a patient who thought she couldn't fall pregnant, and now it looks like she might have." "How is that a win for you?" "I've been treating her with a fertility drug." "But it won't work on me." "My ovaries are fine." "It's my fallopian tubes that are the problem." "I wanna ask you something, and you have to be honest with me." "Will you still love me even though I can't have your children?" "Of course." "And even better than that, I got a chook for tea." "This is me." "I had a really wonderful time." " Thank you for tonight." " Pleasure's all mine." "I'll see you again soon, I hope." "Night." "Look at you." "The cat that ate the canary!" " Duck, actually" " Ooh." "The commander took me to dinner at the end of this long jetty." "I'd watch that commander, if I were you." "Looks like trouble." "He said he can get me an introduction to Bob Hope." "Imagine that!" "I could work in America!" "He let me phone home from his office." "Spoke to Mum." "Deanna can say 'Mamma' and 'Nanna'." "And 'scissors'." "Who's your letter from" " Martha." " Ah." "Patty's trying to organise her wedding dress!" "You've got a couple." "Aren't you gonna open them?" " They're from Chris." " Yeah." "They'll be gushy. "I miss you." "I need you." "When are you coming home?"" "Pretty cool having a bloke love you that much." "He's unpredictable, and kind of crazy." "Crazy's good!" "Yeah." "It's fun." "But I'm gonna have a toddler and a newborn any minute." "I don't think crazy's good for me." "But he loves you." "That's the main thing." " I wish it was." " What's more important?" "Food and clothes for my kids." "Hey, Shirley!" "Shirley!" "Have you heard anything from Annie?" "Nothing yet." "Well, shouldn't you have heard something by now?" "It's an army base, Chris." "They don't have public phones on every corner." " You'll have to wait for a letter." " How could you send her there?" " I didn't send her." " She's carrying my kid!" " In a war zone!" " That's right." "She's carrying it." "Not you." "It was her decision." "You only signed her off to this insane shit to make yourself look good." "Maybe she finally worked out she was all on her own." "Nah." "No, no, no, I know who you are." "You abandoned your first kid, and would've done it again to the second, except no-one else would have it." "The only person you care about is yourself." "Ah!" " I spoke to your husband's lawyer." " So, you do know him." " We were at school together." " Oh, what a coincidence." "He seems confident that your husband's going to be acquitted." "Really?" "On the grounds of proportionate offence and provocation, apparently." "Oh, that's good news." "Listen, in London, doctors have harvested an ovum and fertilised it in a Petri dish." " It's called In-Vitro Fertilisation." " I read that." "I was thinking we could open up a clinic here." "With this Board?" "Jesus." "They're all rusted-on Roman Catholics." "I'm sure you could win them over." "If you wanted to." "Congratulations." "You're pregnant." "Are you sure?" "Yes." "I can't believe it!" "I don't know what to say!" "I want champagne!" "Recent studies suggest that drinking alcohol while pregnant's not a great idea." " Really?" " Sorry!" "My first baby died of something called rhesus." "Yes." "Grace." "I remember." "You might want to ask the father to have an Rh blood test." "I can organise that." "It would be good to know if you and he have different Rh factors." "I don't need to." "I already know." "From the first time." "Patrick is the father." "Thank you so much!"

"Come over, Viv." "I got something for ya." "Excuse me, Captain." "This is Bernie's stuff." "Thought you should have it." "Won't he want it when he gets back?" "I've listed him as 'missing in action'." "That means you think he's dead." "Blokes who are MIA get their possessions sent to relatives." "It's better for his reputation around here than being a deserter." "I don't think you're telling me everything." "It's not the first time he's pissed off." "Started with a few hours here and there, then a whole day." "We've been covering for him." "It's not possible now." "Where was he going?" "Please, just tell me." "Some blokes reckon he's on the hammer." "Heroin?" "No, that's not right." "He got caught pinching needles from the medical stores." "It's not him." "He would've told me." "You wanted to know what I know." "Now you do." "Let's go." "Oh!" "If I have to carry you up the stairs much longer, my arm is gonna fall off!" "He looks like he'll be able to walk up by himself before too long." "Fat as butter." "You'd never guess he was two months premmie." "Mm." "Your daughter has disappeared from Stanton House." " When?" " This morning." "She's allergic to discipline." "She lived through Tarramar." "She may have also accidentally witnessed a live birth." "If she washes up, perhaps you could let me know." "Yes." "Maggie?" "Maggie?" "Stay in there a little while." "Look what you made." "Mrs Brady." "Ah, there you go." "Aren't you glad you don't have a big, ugly scar across your middle now?" "This idea of an In-Vitro Fertilisation clinic." "Do you understand what a Pandora's box that is?" " It doesn't have to be." " People in that field are pilloried, called 'Satan's apprentice' and makers of test-tube babies." " So what?" " Well, before I take it anywhere, are you suggesting this because of your own situation?" "I'm suggesting it because it's the future." "'Cause self-interest isn't a great basis for" " scientific objectivity." " It's a good idea, or it isn't." "Look, having children isn't the be-all and end-all." "The only people who say that are people who take their fertility for granted." "Some of them even have kids without knowing about it." "My own estimate assumes this room's pretty much left as is." "For not much more, you can open this whole area right up." " Oh, that seems a bit excessive." " You could always buy your own place." "I would, if a bank would lend me some money!" "You don't have someone to go guarantor?" "I do, but it has to be a man, 'because they're more reliable'." "Where's my kid!" " No, stop it!" " You've got my kid here!" " I want her now!" " Please calm down." " You'll upset the children." " Hello, you must be Richard." " My name's Patty." " You're running this operation, letting women leave their kids all day and taking money for it!" "Hey!" "You've got some hide, you little leech!" "Breaking up families!" "Where's my daughter!" "Just calm down and go home, alright?" "You're this little bitch's pimp, huh?" "Come 'ere!" "Jim!" "Sorry." "Sorry about your door." "You stopped something much worse from happening." "Do you know, some men, they just hate their wives working." "There are so many of the women that leave their children here that don't even tell their husbands." "That's a recipe for disaster." "What are they supposed to do if their husbands won't give them any money?" "You know that woman Mandy?" "She has to work as a prostitute." "She gets all dressed up and she leaves her daughter here." "Ooh..." "Ah..." "She goes to work and she has to be back at home in her apron by the time her husband gets home." "It's just... horrible." "Oh, they're so deep." "James, hey..." "Come here..." "You're Okay." "Come here." "You're Okay, buddy." "Patty." "We..." "If you're about to apologise, just don't." "Okay." "Have you done this before?" "I mean, since you've been married?" " That's good." " I don't think this can happen again." "Oh, nor do I. No." "But I don't ever wanna hear you say that it didn't mean anything, even if that's what you think." "'Cause it meant something to me."

"Oh, sorry, Martha." "I completely forgot." "You nagged me for a week, say it's more important than breathing, then you forget?" "Sorry." " What happened?" " Uh, nothing." "Just... an incident." "It's obviously not nothing." "Who did this?" "A man." "He was angry because his wife was working and didn't tell him that she was leaving her child here." "Did you report him to the cops?" " No." " Why not?" "Ah, look, 'cause it's not that big a deal." "It is a big deal." "You look after little kids here!" "People can't go smashing up the joint." "Let's go look at wedding dresses." " The shops are shut." " Yeah, we'll go window-shopping." " It'll be fun." "Come on." " You gonna fix your hair first?" " It's all over the place" " Is it?" "Yeah." "Just give me a second." " What's all this?" " Hi." "Oh, I just wanted to do something nice for us." "I even bought us a bottle of wine." " Wine." "Wow, sounds serious." " You'll like it, I promise." "Does it taste like beer?" "I am going to get you to try new things, if it's the last thing I do." "Has he been fed?" "Uh, yeah." "Patty gave him a bottle." " She's a good kid." " Oh..." " What's wrong?" " Nothing." "Hey, what's...?" " What's happened!" " Oh, I had a blue." "Some idiot was throwing his weight around." " Jim..." " It's fine." "Really." "You're about to go on trial for a manslaughter charge." "Do you really think giving your enemies more ammunition is a good idea?" "He had Patty up against the wall." "I had to do something." "Fighting isn't always the answer." "You weren't there." "You don't know what you're talking about." "I'm gonna have a shower." " Maggie." " Shh!" " Get in here!" " I thought you'd gone." " Couldn't decide where." " You can't stay down here for ever." "Matron will find you, sooner or later." " What's that?" " A diary." "Found it down here." ""Can't believe a baby's growing inside me." ""I wee every time I laugh, and sometimes" ""it wakes me up in the night when it moves around in my stomach."" ""I heard my baby's heartbeat for the first time today." "It made me feel strong." "It was like magic."" "Harry?" "Harry." "Nah, I've got nothin'." "I'm out, boys." "Should be careful, wandering around with these blokes." "I found this photo in Bernie's things." "It's Bernie's wife!" "I've seen her before, and that's his son." "Wife?" "Look, she's wearing a wedding ring." "And look at this." "It's an information pamphlet on diabetes." "How do you know?" "I got one of the North Vietnamese prisoners to translate it." "Fair dinkum!" "Harry, what if that's why Bernie took the needles?" "Maybe his wife's got diabetes." "What if he's run away to be with his family?" "There's a lot of 'ifs' in all that, love." "Look at this photo." " Do you know this place?" " Yeah, I think so." " Can you take me there?" " What?" "I want you to take me to this village." "You're out of your mind, love!" " You're crazy." " I have to know that Bernie's Okay." "Annie, look at the photo." "That's his son." "You don't know that." "I've seen the little boy before, when Bernie came home." "Look, his girlfriend's wearing a ring now." "They got married." "I'm not sure if you've heard, but there's people out there with guns." " Harry's gonna take me." " Oh, is he?" "You can't stop me." "I'm meant to be flying to Khe Sanh tomorrow, Viv," " to sing for the Americans." " So?" "So I'm not gonna be able to do that if you're traipsing through the bloody jungle!" "What if something happens to you?" "Well, you do what you've gotta do." "I'm going to go find my brother." "Your pulse is strong." "Blood pressure's good." "Everything's on track." "Hello..." "If you had to choose, would you like me to wear a frilly wedding dress with puffy sleeves and a long train, or a simple one with no sleeves and no train?" "Uh... you'd look good in anything." "If you had to choose." "Well, my sister wore a frilly dress with a long train, and she... looked very different to you!" " So, a simple one." "Definitely." " I knew it!" "Okay." "Let's go." "Been in contact in the area where we're headed in the last week." "I've sent a forward patrol ahead of us and allowed two hours." "If there's any sign of the NVA, we'll come straight back." "Clear?" "I really appreciate you doing this for me, Harry." "I'm doing it for Bernie." "Wait!" "I'm coming." " Oh, Jesus Christ..." " What about your show?" "They'll have to wait." "Delta Five, Delta One." "Do you copy?" "Over?" "You must be Harry." "This is Delta One." "Over." "This place is taken now." "I've got civilians down and WIA." "Over." " How hot is it?" "Over." " It's quiet now." "Viet Cong's burnt themselves off." "The village has been hit by artillery fire." " It's still a hot zone." " Can we still go?" "Just for a minute?" "Please, Harry!" "I want you two at my side at all times." "Annie?" "Okay." "Sir." "How long till we can get a bird for a medivac?" "They're on their way." "What the hell are they doing here?" " My call." "Go secure the perimeter." " Yes, sir." "Hey, what's...?" "Are you Okay?" "Is this your sister?" "What's happened?" "Where's your mum?" "No!" "No, no, no..." "Stay here." "Stay here." "Hoang?" "Hoang!" "I'm Viv!" "Bernie's sister!" "Where is Bernie?" "Harry!" "This... this is Bernie's wife!" "I think she knows where Bernie is!" "And Bung, her little boy." "Bung, is he here too?" " She's saying they're dead." " No!" "Is she sure?" "Did she see...?" "She says this is her son." " He's all she has" " Hoang, please!" "Please, did you see Bernie?" "Do you know what happened to him?" "No, no..." "Hoang!" "Hoang!" "Hoang, wait!" "Landmines!" "Get back!" "Viv, back in the jeep!" "Annie, back in the jeep!" "Eyes out!" "Watch your front!" "Viv, get in." "Take it!" "Take it!" "And as they come into the straight, it's Sand Montage by a length to Mud Prince!" "100 to go!" "Mud Prince and Purple Mist are coming again!" "Sand Montage with his nose in front, but they're going to run him down!" " Purple Mist gets the money..." " Oh, shit." "Mud Prince second, Sand..." "From Annie." "At the foot of your beds!" "Hands behind your backs!" "So, 'discipline yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness'." " Yes, Matron." " Did you get hungry?" "No, Matron." "I missed your jokes." "Two things." "I'm gonna try and be a better husband." "How are you going to do that?" "Love you for better or worse." "I thought you'd already promised that." "I did, but this time I actually mean it." " And two, I'm gonna learn to like wine." " Whoa!" " Yup." " No." "Really?" "Mm-hm." "Don't set me up for too much disappointment." "Let's eat out." "We never go out." " You got a place in mind?" " You choose." "Well, we need somewhere that accommodates prams..." " Jim Marsh?" " Yeah." "I'd like to ask you some questions about an assault at a child-minding centre yesterday." "Take him." "Yeah." "I'm so sorry, Viv." "I told Bernie to come back here, to be with his family." "Hey, you can't blame yourself." "Yes, I can." "He's such a beautiful baby." "Yeah." "You can't put him in an orphanage." "Harry reckons if he's discovered, he'll be taken away." "To where?" "We could try to take him home."
