00:00Dental contact with a wife and son, still in the rock.
00:05What? What is it?
00:06Sweetheart, hey. What happened?
00:09Dad.
00:10What the hell were you thinking, Ava?
00:11What about your boyfriend being there?
00:13He's a guy you're not seeing anymore.
00:15We had an illegal laborer on site.
00:16He fell. He died a few hours later. I think we killed him.
00:18What do you reckon about having your entire debt cleared?
00:21What about the banker? Can we put pressure on him?
00:23Knocking people off the jury was not part of the agreement.
00:26Ripley! Zeus!
00:28It all just happened so fast.
00:29I've got photographs of Alice's arm.
00:31Fucking stop!
00:33You need to leave immediately.
00:35Jamie's angry. He's punishing me.
00:37You should have stayed at mine.
00:38Claire was upset because she'd found something out.
00:41Claire told me her father was having an affair.
00:43Who was he having an affair with?
00:44Kate.
00:59I love that. I love that.
01:12That's fantastic.
01:14Can you make it a little tighter?
01:17Yeah, wait.
01:17Drop your hand a little bit.
01:19So, stay in that position.
01:21Yeah.
01:21Keep it tight.
01:22Yeah.
01:23Wait.
01:24It has to look real.
01:26Let's go.
01:28That's very early.
01:31Yeah, that should be fine.
01:34We don't have to set out to prove that Nathan killed Claire.
01:38We just have to convince the jury that he had a motive to do so,
01:42and therefore give them reasonable doubt.
01:45But it does mean, I'm afraid,
01:50leaning into your affair.
01:53You sure you want to risk that?
01:55I know the damage with Diane is already done, so.
02:02I'll make it up to her sometime.
02:05But I need to get acquitted first,
02:08so you need to use this to take Nathan down.
02:11What I'm saying, Kate, is
02:12recalling any witness without due preparation
02:16is always dangerous.
02:18But isn't it enough that he lied
02:19to give the jury reasonable doubt?
02:22As long as the jury believe that Nathan's the liar
02:24and not Claire and the housemistress.
02:30Then make them believe it.
02:3420 minutes.
02:35We need to pack up.
02:37I think I found something.
02:39Is it pertinent to this testimony?
02:41No.
02:42But I think you need to look.
02:47This is 12 minutes after Kate left in her car with Amita.
02:50Watch.
02:52Is it a flash?
02:55Is it a camera flash?
02:57Every 10 seconds for 6 minutes.
03:02So what do you think?
03:03Is this Claire?
03:05She was the only one there.
03:06Welcome back, Mr. Spears.
03:25Earlier in your evidence,
03:26you said that you met Kate Lawson
03:28at art school
03:29before you met her sister, Diane.
03:32Is that correct?
03:32Correct.
03:33And you admitted an affair,
03:35one affair,
03:37during your marriage to Diane Spears.
03:40Yes.
03:40I also said that I regretted it.
03:42Was that affair with Kate Lawson?
03:45No.
03:47Then who was it with?
03:49It was with my wife, Sonia.
03:50So you are a liar and an adulterer?
03:53I'm not a liar.
03:54Did you lie to your wife, Diane,
03:57about an affair with your wife, Sonia?
04:02Yes.
04:02So you are an adulterer and a liar.
04:05That is established.
04:07Can the witness be shown Exhibit A, please?
04:11Now, Mr. Spears,
04:12you will be shown the footage of you
04:13attending Ms. Lawson's house
04:15on the night of September the 14th
04:16in response to the online video
04:19Claire had posted that afternoon.
04:21Now, here you are seen dragging Claire
04:27away from Ms. Lawson's house.
04:29Correct?
04:30That's correct.
04:36But here, Kate interrupts.
04:41And you are unable to finish your argument.
04:43That must have been frustrating, was it not?
04:46Well, we were both emotional.
04:47I just decided to let it go.
04:49Were you emotional because Claire told you
04:51she knew about your affair with her aunt
04:53and she was threatening to tell your wife?
04:56No.
04:56So what were you arguing about?
04:58I just told her that Sonia was losing the baby
05:01that she was carrying at the time.
05:03Claire didn't want to come home.
05:05She was uncomfortable.
05:06She said she didn't know what she would say to Sonia.
05:08I told her she should come home,
05:10but she refused.
05:12That is not the evidence that you gave before, is it?
05:14No.
05:15No.
05:16So you perjured yourself?
05:19Yes.
05:20Why, then, did you choose to lie?
05:23Because, as you can see,
05:24my wife is in a delicate condition again.
05:28And also the baby is a very private thing.
05:30I don't think it was fair to expose it
05:32when it wasn't relevant to anyone else
05:33but myself and my wife.
05:35It would cause her too much distress.
05:37But the fact remains that you lied to this court
05:39when you were under oath to tell the truth.
05:42Ann, when you were first interviewed by the police,
05:46your wife was not then in a delicate condition, was she?
05:51No.
05:51So why did you lie to the police?
05:53I'd lost two children inside 24 hours.
05:58By the time I was interviewed about that footage,
06:01our lives were spread all over the news.
06:03So if I chose to protect my wife
06:05by keeping our personal tragedy to myself,
06:08would you blame me?
06:11I put it to you that your two explanations are different
06:15because they are two different lies.
06:18That's not true.
06:19True, not true.
06:20This is just words to a liar.
06:22I know the difference.
06:23I will ask you again, Mr. Spears.
06:25Did you have a long-standing affair
06:27with your sister-in-law,
06:29the defendant, Kate Lawson?
06:32No.
06:33Claire's housemistress said your daughter told her
06:35you were having an affair with her aunt.
06:37Now, who's telling the lie?
06:39Is it the housemistress?
06:41No, I don't think so.
06:42Is it Claire that's lying there?
06:43Claire lied about a lot of things.
06:46Now, is your current wife wealthy?
06:50Yes.
06:51She is.
06:51How is that?
06:52Her family are involved in the Italian automotive industry.
06:55So do you have a prenuptial agreement
06:57that states that if you commit adultery
07:00and the marriage ends and divorce,
07:01you forfeit any right to a financial settlement?
07:04Yes, but I haven't committed adultery.
07:06Look, the police had access to my phone,
07:09to Kate's records, too.
07:10You can check.
07:11There was nothing.
07:12No contact except about Claire.
07:14Hand me a note.
07:16Don't answer.
07:18Mr. Spears,
07:19are you aware that there are apps on mobile phones
07:22that allow you to send messages that cannot be traced?
07:26No.
07:26So you don't know of...
07:29Wic...
07:30Wic...
07:31What is this?
07:32Wic...
07:32Wic...
07:33I'm sorry,
07:34this seems to be a...
07:35Wicca.
07:36Wicca.
07:37Wicca.
07:37Wicca.
07:38So you are aware of this app?
07:41I've heard of it.
07:42Did you and Ms. Lawson use the Wicca app
07:44to conduct a secret liaison that could not be traced?
07:48No.
07:49Then why is the Wicca app on your phone?
07:56I don't know.
07:57I mean,
07:58Claire may have uploaded it.
07:59She did that sometimes.
08:00I don't know.
08:01Mr. Spears,
08:02in the course of a few moments,
08:03you've accused your daughter,
08:05your 14-year-old daughter,
08:06of being a liar.
08:07And now you're accusing her of tampering with your phone.
08:10Is it your intention to use Claire,
08:13who can't answer for herself,
08:15to use Claire to cover all the inconsistencies in your evidence?
08:19I'm not using Claire.
08:21Now,
08:21since we've established that you've lied to your wife about your affairs
08:25and you've lied here under oath,
08:27why should the jury believe you are now telling the truth?
08:35I lost my daughter thanks to Kate.
08:37And by that,
08:40I mean long before she died.
08:42Why would I have an affair with someone that I hated?
08:46No more questions,
08:48Your Honour.
08:52I have no further questions,
08:54Your Honour.
08:55And that is the close of the Crown's case.
08:57So do we think he was actually having an affair with her?
09:09Yeah,
09:09well,
09:09she must be saying they were.
09:10The defence wouldn't call him back.
09:12It's a bit of a he said,
09:13she said,
09:13Sige.
09:14People fuck who they hate all the time.
09:16Exactly.
09:17And he's a gold digger.
09:18If they were having an affair,
09:19they could be in it together.
09:20Well,
09:21everything that I hear just makes me more convinced that she's guilty.
09:24Do you need a hand?
09:54School time.
09:54Oh,
09:55no thank you.
09:56I can manage.
09:57Tell her that she can go,
09:59but with the girls only.
10:01And be home by 11.
10:03Bye.
10:04I'll love you.
10:06I'll see you.
10:06Bye.
10:06Bye.
10:13So the idea is that you send them a letter threatening legal action.
10:17Then you don't have to take the action that you're threatening.
10:20Got it.
10:20And plan B is getting a job.
10:24You get a ride share licence.
10:26Then you have a job.
10:27But no car.
10:29When my wife gets here,
10:31I give you my car.
10:32We do night shifts.
10:34Serious?
10:34Well,
10:34yeah,
10:34I didn't wait so long for this.
10:36I'm then going to spend my evenings away from my family.
10:40Use my car.
10:41I didn't miss Carrie until two days.
11:07After you went to the cinema.
11:13So whatever you and Claire thought about that night,
11:18it wasn't the baby.
11:22Nathan!
11:32I lied for you.
11:36Where were you that night?
11:40You came home from the cinema late.
11:43You came home from the cinema.
11:57I lied for you.
12:01What the hell were you thinking, telling Claire about us?
12:17If you think you can abuse me, you can fuck off.
12:20Claire was guessing, and it was your reaction that gave everything away.
12:25You know what? You're not worth this.
12:27You're not worth losing Sonya, right?
12:29If you let Claire say whatever she likes, we deny it, Nathan.
12:31We deny it. We deny it.
12:33No, you listen to me, right?
12:35If you don't fix this and I lose Sonya, then I swear to fucking God,
12:39I am going to make your life hell, Kate. Do you understand me?
12:42You already make my life hell.
12:45You make all of our lives hell.
12:52You know what?
12:54We're done.
12:55For good.
13:01You have told so many lies.
13:14All I can do is promise.
13:17I promise you I will never do anything to hurt you again.
13:23No more lies.
13:24I don't know how many more ways I can say it.
13:38For you to take the stand is the worst possible idea.
13:42I don't even think I should be listening to you anymore.
13:45Mr. Colby is protecting you.
13:46Oh, is he, Ezekiel?
13:47Is that why he hasn't called a single witness to defend me?
13:50I mean, maybe we should have brought up my past.
13:52Maybe then one of those jurors would actually understand my art.
13:55Maybe burying that was a huge mistake.
13:57We agreed on a strategy.
13:59Look, Nathan is lying and I want to speak for myself.
14:02Kate, I strongly advise you.
14:05Do not testify.
14:09As things stand now, we have a very good shot at a not guilty verdict.
14:13Please, stop pacing.
14:15Now, on the prosecution evidence, they cannot dismiss the idea that she just ran away.
14:21It might make you feel better to call Nathan a liar.
14:26But if you take the stand, you open yourself up to cross-examination by the crown.
14:31And if any juror on the fence sees you as untrustworthy under questioning,
14:36that is the difference between freedom and a lifetime in jail.
14:42And if any juror still sitting on the fence sees me in a good light,
14:47then that can make a difference too, yes?
14:51Can he stop me?
14:54It's your choice.
14:58Then I want to take the stand.
15:00Mummy!
15:13Mummy!
15:14Hello, little cupcakes.
15:16Why aren't you home?
15:18You weren't home last night either.
15:20I'm on a work trip.
15:22Is Daddy there?
15:24Tell me I'm busy.
15:26His bedroom is that?
15:27Okay, kids.
15:29Chuck, Chuck.
15:30Dinner's on the table.
15:31Come on.
15:31Bye, Mommy.
15:32Bye, Mom.
15:33Bye, Dad.
15:34Bye.
15:34Bye-bye.
15:39Where are you?
15:39I thought I told you to stay in a hotel.
15:41I am.
15:44You'd be very silly to lie to me right now, Georgina.
15:48Please, just don't start.
15:49I've had to speak to the kids.
15:51Well, the children are eating.
15:53I don't know.
15:57Did you get to speak to the kids?
16:23Yeah, they were having you down, so...
16:29I might be, um, going out on a limb here and stating the obvious, but you deserve better.
16:39It doesn't hit me if that's what you're thinking.
16:44I love him, Gary.
16:48He's not a bad man.
16:50I just...
16:53I just...
16:53I just want my life back and my family together.
17:04George, you're a catch.
17:08He treats you like shit.
17:09Can't you see that?
17:12Really, I mean, you are a great bird.
17:15Oh, it'll just be a minute.
17:27It could be just this package I'm expecting.
17:28Where are my fucking dogs?
17:47Where are my fucking dogs?
17:48Hey, you'll get them.
17:50But first things first.
17:52Otto's flipping over the affair with the brother-in-law.
17:55How did it go down?
17:56Not well for Kate.
17:59Oh, man, my dog.
18:00Mate, Otto asked you for full names and details that people wish you'd target, brother.
18:04And so far, we've gotten zipped from you.
18:07Yeah, but you know I can't do that.
18:11The juror you're shaking in there.
18:14Which way is she voting?
18:15Not guilty.
18:16All the way.
18:17Shit's getting real, brother.
18:18I don't want to have to take your dogs for a little trip to the farm.
18:21So just give me names, mate.
18:23Names are the ones most likely to be voting guilty.
18:26Thanks.
18:46Running late.
18:48Where's the grumpy princess?
18:49Uh, she, um, she didn't come home last night.
18:56What do you mean?
18:57I said home by 11.
18:58Yeah, well, I didn't hear her come in.
19:00I thought she was just late.
19:01But, um, the bed's not slept in.
19:05Have you called her?
19:06Yeah, I tried.
19:07She's not answering.
19:08Her phone's off.
19:09I called the girls, and they said she never made it to the movie.
19:12I've tried the boyfriend.
19:18No answer.
19:23Sorry.
19:24Sorry, everyone.
19:26Business taking a hit.
19:29My daughter didn't come home last night.
19:32I'll get on door.
19:34We don't know where she is.
19:36Okay, now that we're all here, shall we, uh, get to court?
19:39Yeah.
19:40Okay, I've got to go.
19:41Bye.
19:42Your Honor, I call the accused Kate Lawson.
20:12Ms. Lawson, we've heard conflicting evidence.
20:18Did you, in fact, have an affair with Nathan Spears?
20:22I did.
20:24We did.
20:24Do you have any records or text messages between you and Mr. Spears to support this, Claire?
20:31No.
20:32Why not?
20:33Because both of us were afraid that my sister would find out, and so we used the Wicker app
20:38on our phones.
20:39How often did you and Mr. Spears engage in sexual activities?
20:44It was sporadic.
20:45It was sporadic.
20:45It wasn't romantic, because we both felt terrible whenever it happened.
20:50So there were gaps of months, sometimes even years.
20:54Now, on the night of September the 14th, Claire refused to go with her father, but then he suddenly
20:59gave his consent.
21:01Did she say why?
21:02Did she explain why?
21:03Did she explain why?
21:04Yes.
21:05She had threatened to expose the affair to her mother and to her stepmother, unless Nathan
21:11let her stay.
21:12Ms. Lawson, prior to the testimony of Fiona West, the housemistress at school, had you admitted
21:18this affair to the police, or to your family, or to anyone in this room?
21:23No, I'd never told anyone.
21:25You had not, in fact, even told any of your legal team, had you?
21:29Correct.
21:30So, can you explain why you have chosen to tell the truth now?
21:34Because when I witnessed Nathan lying under oath, I started to doubt other things that he'd
21:40said about Claire.
21:42Now, how would you describe Claire's relationship with her father?
21:45Uh, it was very stormy.
21:48It was volatile.
21:49Nathan has a terrible temper, and he puts his own interests first above everyone's, especially
21:54Claire's.
21:55When Claire was reported missing, what was Nathan's reaction?
21:58Oh, he was furious.
22:00He, uh, he said he believed that she'd run away and she would come home when she was hungry.
22:06Did he make an effort to call the police or to look for her?
22:09No, he didn't.
22:10No, Diane and I called the police.
22:13We went looking for Claire.
22:15And Nathan stayed at home with Sonia.
22:17Now, Miss Lawson, I must ask you this.
22:23Did you kill your niece, Claire Spears?
22:26No, I would never hurt Claire.
22:33Never.
22:34The reason she wanted to be with me was that we shared similar interests.
22:41She loved me very, very much, and she found my life very exciting.
22:44I'm ahead of you, Madam Crown.
22:46You will speak only in response to questions asked of you, Miss Lawson.
22:49Sorry.
22:54When they called Kate to the stand, I was expecting way more from Colby.
22:57Uber anti-climax.
22:59But he can't just go in hardcore.
23:00No, he has to keep her soft and easy.
23:02Yeah.
23:03So she doesn't hang herself.
23:04Has anyone else noticed the shift in attitude or expression from Kate's sister towards her?
23:10Brutal.
23:10Like, fuck you, bitch.
23:12I wonder if she'll be telling a different story on the stand now.
23:14Is anyone wondering what we're even doing here?
23:17A few hundred years ago, they used to burn witches at the stake.
23:20400.
23:21Middle-Aged.
23:22400.
23:23Middle-Aged.
23:23Thank you, Margaret.
23:24Who knows what it'll be 400 years from now.
23:26Maybe people will just be like, that was that person's fate.
23:29To die.
23:31And no one needs to be punished.
23:32Yeah, it's not only about punishment.
23:34It's about deterring crime.
23:36Otherwise, anybody could willy-nilly kill whoever they wanted.
23:38Yeah, I would have willy-nilly killed a few people by now.
23:41Dozens.
23:42Decent people.
23:43Expect to be punished for what they did.
23:45That's not necessarily true.
23:48You have no idea what you're talking about because you've never been in that situation.
23:53Yes!
23:59Farah!
24:00They're reinstating my scholarship.
24:02We did it.
24:04Everything okay?
24:06She was stopped at the airport.
24:09They wouldn't let her on the plane.
24:11They're not telling us why.
24:13I think that the lawyer's trying to find out more details.
24:16And I'm stuck in this.
24:19I can't do anything.
24:21No.
24:22I'm so sorry.
24:31Sorry.
24:31You're an arsehole.
24:35I know.
24:37We need to talk.
24:43Did you go there?
24:44Did you see Joe?
24:46He's bullshitting.
24:48She has to be with him.
24:50Yeah, I know.
24:51I know.
24:53I just...
24:53Where the fuck is she then?
24:56Hello, mate.
25:10It's Trevor, isn't it?
25:17Yes?
25:17What's the emergency?
25:19You know, we can't be seen together.
25:20I have a reputation to pretend, okay?
25:22Tell me Alan didn't do something stupid.
25:24So what are you talking about?
25:25I gave him the names of two jurors.
25:27One of their daughters has gone missing.
25:30Look, I owe Alan money.
25:32At the end of the day,
25:33I don't owe you nothing.
25:35So if someone gets hurt out of this,
25:38I will burn down your gallery,
25:40your house,
25:41and your fucking reputation!
25:53Would you describe yourself as a caring aunt,
25:56Ms. Lawson?
25:57Yes, I would.
25:58And did your niece, Claire,
26:00rely on you for most of her emotional support?
26:03Yes, she did.
26:03And did you give her that support?
26:06Always.
26:07Always.
26:08On the night of Saturday,
26:10September 14th,
26:11where was Claire when you returned
26:12from dropping Amita back at school?
26:14I assumed she was sleeping.
26:16But you told the court
26:17that you and Claire had had,
26:19well, an argument.
26:21That she was angry with you
26:23over your affair with her father that night.
26:26Isn't that right?
26:27She was acting out, yes.
26:29And Amita also testified
26:30that you and Claire had an altercation,
26:33which resulted in you having to drop Amita back to school early.
26:36Is that also correct?
26:37That is correct, yes.
26:39And yet, you told the police
26:40that when you returned home
26:41from dropping Amita back,
26:43you didn't go in to check on Claire.
26:44No, her door was closed,
26:46and I didn't want to wake her
26:47or start an argument that late at night.
26:50Well, Claire was a 14-year-old girl
26:52who, by your own testimony,
26:54was upset and emotional.
26:58And yet you, her guardian,
26:59her sole caregiver,
27:02didn't go in to check to see if Claire was all right.
27:05No, I didn't.
27:06And because of that,
27:07the alarm wasn't raised until late the next day,
27:10is that so?
27:11Yes, that's right.
27:12So if you had have returned from dropping Amita
27:15and gone to check on Claire,
27:17you would have raised the alarm a lot earlier,
27:20wouldn't you?
27:20Of course.
27:21Miss Lawson, you have just told the court
27:23that you always provided emotional support
27:26to your niece,
27:27and yet on this one occasion,
27:29you did not,
27:31which left enough time for
27:32a murder to occur,
27:34a body to be disposed of,
27:35and the evidence trail to go cold.
27:38Would you not agree that this one lapse
27:40in emotional support seems convenient?
27:46Well, sometimes providing emotional support
27:49to a teenager means giving them space
27:52when they're overwrought.
27:53Surely, as a mother, you know that.
27:55Surely you know by now that I'm the one
27:57who asks the questions,
27:58not you, Miss Lawson.
28:00I'm so sorry.
28:03Do you consider yourself a fit guardian
28:06for a 14-year-old girl?
28:08Yes, I do.
28:09Well, the court has heard
28:10that you suffer from
28:11borderline personality disorder.
28:13Is that right?
28:14Well, that's a label
28:16that gets thrown around.
28:19That's one doctor's opinion.
28:20It's not something I have to agree with.
28:22Were you diagnosed
28:23with the disorder, Miss Lawson?
28:25I mean, do I have to say yes
28:27if I don't agree?
28:27Can you please object?
28:29Miss Lawson, you are required
28:30to answer the question directly.
28:32You can't ask counsel to object.
28:35Continue, Madam Grant.
28:36Thank you, Your Honor.
28:38The expert witness told us
28:41traits that are associated
28:42with BPD include
28:44unstable relationships,
28:47self-harm,
28:48impulsive behaviours,
28:49extreme emotional swings,
28:52explosive anger,
28:53among others.
28:54Are these things you have struggled with, Kate?
29:00I wouldn't call them struggles.
29:02They are parts of my temperament
29:04that actually help me become a better artist.
29:07Oh, so you embrace your extreme moods
29:09and behaviour as part of your art.
29:10I have to.
29:11Yes, I do.
29:13You've described Claire
29:14as your muse in artistic statements,
29:17haven't you?
29:18She's one of my muses.
29:20But you relied on her exclusively
29:21for the exhibition you were working on
29:24at the time of her disappearance.
29:25That's correct.
29:26Yes.
29:27Excessive fear of abandonment
29:29is also a trait of BPD,
29:31isn't it?
29:32Oh, you've googled it.
29:34You told me.
29:34Your Honor, objection.
29:37My client is not an expert witness
29:39in borderline personality disorder, so-called.
29:44I'll rephrase the question, Your Honor.
29:47Was fear of abandonment described
29:48as part of your diagnosis?
29:51Maybe.
29:51I cannot recall.
29:53So when Claire rebelled against you,
29:55it must have appeared
29:56as if you were losing your muse
29:57and fearing abandonment.
29:59Did you take her life
30:02in a fit of explosive rage?
30:05That is a ridiculous question.
30:06Ms. Lawson.
30:07Of course I didn't.
30:08Of course I didn't.
30:09It doesn't even make sense.
30:11If I had a fear of abandonment,
30:13why would I kill her?
30:14It makes no sense at all.
30:15How would that help my art?
30:23Why would he put her on the stand?
30:25It's not like she did herself any favours.
30:27She's a bit of an oddball, granted,
30:28but she's not a murderer.
30:29Can we speak?
30:31I'm so sorry, but we can't be talking.
30:32No, no, it's not about the case.
30:35My daughter has gone missing,
30:36absent, without contact,
30:37since last night,
30:38and that's never happened before.
30:40You're going to have to contact
30:41your local police station.
30:42I'm very sorry.
30:47I hope Ava's okay.
30:48I can't help but feel responsible.
30:55You want to take it that's your husband?
30:56You just have a cigarette
30:57and just don't act like you're interested
30:59or paying any attention, okay?
31:10Why are you here?
31:12Did I tell you you're staying out?
31:15Jamie, you threw me out.
31:17If you want me to come home,
31:19just say.
31:20Who's that dick one?
31:24It's Gary.
31:25He's just one of the jurors.
31:27Gary who?
31:28I barely know him.
31:31Just tell me his name.
31:33If you've got nothing to hide,
31:34there shouldn't be a problem.
31:35We're not actually meant to reveal
31:37any of the jurors' names.
31:38That's convenient, isn't it?
31:41Fuck the anonymity bullshit.
31:42It's making me anxious, George.
31:46Jamie.
31:48I've got to go.
31:49Georgina,
31:50if you want to speak to your children,
31:52hmm?
31:53Thorne.
31:55His name's Gary Thorne, okay?
31:57Okay.
32:05That doesn't help, you know?
32:07Okay.
32:07It's just all a bloody guessing game
32:17without some kind of guidance, Trevor.
32:20But we don't know without a body.
32:22That's why she can't be guilty.
32:24Yeah, but you always said she was.
32:29No.
32:29No, thank you.
32:34I've got my own lunch.
32:37I owe you an apology.
32:41Look, I don't understand your behavior,
32:44but it's really too late
32:46for an explanation now.
32:48Margaret.
32:50The night you came to dinner,
32:51I was, um...
32:52After I was like,
32:53I couldn't sleep.
32:55I felt, um...
32:57This is silly.
32:58I felt like I'd been cheating on my wife.
33:01Having you there.
33:02Having dinner.
33:04I realized I was enjoying myself.
33:06They were flirting, even.
33:08God forbid, in our house.
33:10You understand?
33:13I had a bad reaction,
33:14and I just...
33:16It's taken me a while, you know,
33:19to, um...
33:20It's taken me a while to, uh...
33:23Find the words?
33:25I hope you can forgive me,
33:28and that, uh...
33:30Well, it is not too late
33:33to, um...
33:34Court is recommencing.
33:48It's bloody insane.
33:55Sorry.
33:58My daughter has disappeared.
34:00She didn't show up at school today.
34:03She's really out of character.
34:07Tried her, uh...
34:09Her boyfriends,
34:10and...
34:11Her friends,
34:13and, um...
34:14Is that ironic?
34:17Or is it just me?
34:18We're hearing about a teenage girl
34:19who goes missing,
34:21and never comes back,
34:23and the cop who investigates,
34:24she won't even bloody talk to me.
34:26We need to start moving back in,
34:27ladies and gentlemen.
34:28Yeah, okay.
34:28Mate, they, uh...
34:34They said that in these long cases,
34:37they're usually sympathetic
34:38towards family crisis.
34:39You should tell them.
34:40Tell them.
34:42You think it'll let me go?
34:43Yeah, yeah, yeah.
34:45Yeah, man.
34:45Pull out.
34:47The kid's more important.
34:56Declaring a meter drink
34:57under your roof
34:58from the night of September 14th.
35:00Well, we've all seen the video.
35:02I was holed up
35:03with a deadline that night.
35:05What was the title of the piece
35:06that you were working on?
35:09That's great.
35:10I love how taut it is there.
35:11That's so great.
35:12I think I'm actually
35:13going to make my deadline.
35:16You know, that's what
35:16you should call it.
35:18Deadline.
35:22Yeah, that's pretty good, actually.
35:25It was called Deadline.
35:26Oh, I see.
35:27Was that a bit of
35:28meta-whimsy on your part?
35:30Or the execution
35:31of a long-held artistic goal
35:33in your career?
35:34What does that mean?
35:35Do you recall an interview
35:36you did with the journal
35:37Artiste
35:38in December 2012?
35:42Uh, vaguely.
35:43Could the accused
35:44please be passed
35:45exhibit L, Your Honor?
35:46Would you please read
35:53the highlighted text,
35:55Ms. Lawson?
35:56Of course.
35:59Getting too attached
36:01to certain concepts
36:02is detrimental to art.
36:04There's an expression
36:05writers use,
36:07kill your favorite children,
36:09and I think the same
36:10holds true in art.
36:12Kill the muse
36:13is my new mantra.
36:16We must kill the muse
36:17that inspires
36:18in order to reach
36:20true inspiration.
36:22I think you're taking this
36:22a little bit too literally.
36:24Turn the page
36:24and read the next
36:25highlighted section, please.
36:27Right.
36:28That's exactly
36:28what I'm saying.
36:30Death is the masterpiece.
36:31If the muse were here
36:34in tangible form,
36:36I'd kill it
36:36and capture it forever.
36:43Claire Spears
36:44was the muse
36:45for Deadline,
36:45wasn't she?
36:46Objection.
36:47This question
36:47has been asked
36:48and this question
36:50has been answered.
36:51Upheld.
36:52Move on,
36:52Madame Crown.
36:53She was a muse,
36:54not the muse.
36:56She was the sacrifice
36:57to achieve your ultimate
36:58work of art
36:59on sex and morbidity,
37:01No, she was not.
37:02You came home,
37:03you went in
37:04and killed the muse
37:05with hours to go
37:06before your deadline.
37:07No.
37:07And then you took the boat
37:09and you disposed
37:10of the body.
37:11That is not true.
37:12And you are now
37:13trying to frame
37:14not just an innocent man
37:15but Claire's own father.
37:18No.
37:18No, I was...
37:19The witness will take her seat.
37:21No, no, no!
37:23I have to get out of this box.
37:25Please, please, please.
37:27Sit down, Miss Lawson.
37:29I can't understand.
37:31Miss Lawson.
37:44Your Honour,
37:45I request a recess
37:48to assess the capacity
37:50of my client
37:51to continue.
37:53Your Honour,
37:54I have a note
37:56from a juror.
37:57I'll take the note, Sheriff.
38:08Mr. Colby,
38:09your request is granted,
38:10but as one of the jurors
38:12is experiencing
38:13personal difficulties,
38:14we will adjourn for the day.
38:18All rise.
38:21Court dismissed.
38:22Anne, I need to speak with you.
38:39Let me speak to my sister!
38:41Diane refuses to see you.
39:05On the plus side,
39:10the judge has excused you
39:13from further testimony
39:14since there were no request
39:16to continue from the crown.
39:17Because she thinks she's won.
39:20Kate, I need to ask you something.
39:22What was on your camera
39:24when you came home
39:26the night that Claire disappeared?
39:28What do you mean?
39:30Now, the reason I ask
39:31is that Ezekiel
39:33has found some flashes
39:34on the CCTV footage
39:3612 minutes
39:38after you left the house.
39:39They're 10 seconds apart.
39:41There's 36 all up.
39:43Now, that's a roll of film.
39:45They're subtle,
39:46but they're there.
39:48And what we believe
39:49is that police have
39:50fast-forwarded that footage
39:52between the arrivals
39:53and departures
39:54from the house
39:55and they missed them.
39:56Now, the only person
39:56was home at the time
39:58when those flashes went off
39:59was cleared.
40:00Did she take any photos
40:01on your camera?
40:04She did.
40:06I found the film
40:08and I developed it.
40:09Enlarged a couple of the prints,
40:11but it was nothing.
40:12She turned the camera around
40:14and she triggered
40:15the auto-timer.
40:16She was trying to ruin
40:17my final setup.
40:19It was 36 shots of nothing.
40:21What happened to those photos?
40:22I burnt them.
40:23You burnt them?
40:24Well, I'd do that
40:26with any pictures
40:28that I don't want
40:29catalogued in my collection.
40:31It keeps the value intact.
40:32And what about the negatives?
40:34I assume the police took them.
40:36No, no, no.
40:37I looked through
40:37the police evidence
40:38and there's nothing
40:39that fits your description.
40:42So, where else could there be?
40:47You should ask my sister.
40:49What was that?
41:02What?
41:03Vanessa, you saw me in the court.
41:05I waited for you
41:06after I called.
41:07I texted.
41:09Why would you leave without me?
41:11I didn't know you were coming,
41:12so I just assumed
41:13you're doing your own thing.
41:14I'm sorry.
41:15That was weird.
41:16and rude
41:18and hurtful.
41:22Why were you there?
41:24I mean, were you just
41:25trying to spy on me?
41:26Oh, God.
41:29No.
41:31I thought I'd show
41:32an interest in this
41:33whole Kate thing
41:34you've been getting
41:34upset about.
41:36She's borderline.
41:37I'm trying to understand you.
41:40I'm trying to find some way
41:42to get on your page
41:43with this shit.
41:44You can't get on my page.
41:46I don't know what I want.
41:47I don't even know
41:48who I am
41:49as a person myself anymore.
41:51And I feel like
41:51I'm just trying to be this thing
41:52just to please you.
41:53Like, with babies
41:54and domestics
41:54and pretense.
41:55And you know what?
41:56I don't know
41:56if I can pull that off.
41:58You're the one
41:59who wanted babies.
42:02Okay?
42:04I feel like
42:05I'm being totally
42:06gaslit right now.
42:07Yeah?
42:09Then just go.
42:14Go what?
42:14Go where?
42:15What?
42:15What?
42:15Leave you.
42:18That's what you want.
42:25Okay.
42:26So, yeah,
42:45he's not letting me
42:46see the kids.
42:48It's been over 48 hours.
42:51This is really
42:51tearing me apart.
42:52Yeah, that's a lot.
42:53I was thinking
42:54we need compo
42:55for jury duty trauma.
42:58You trying to fuck
42:58my wife, Gary?
43:01Oh, mate,
43:02don't come at me
43:02with something like that.
43:03I'm watching, mate.
43:03You threw her out.
43:04I'm just giving a friend
43:05somewhere to stay.
43:06Yeah, you seem
43:06real fucking friendly.
43:07Hey, Jamie, come on.
43:09You are out of here
43:10right now.
43:10We can't get the fuck
43:11out of here, you parasite.
43:12She's sick of your shit.
43:16Jamie!
43:17You shouldn't have hit him.
43:19Are you okay?
43:20George.
43:21Hey, are you okay?
43:22George, please, come on.
43:22Please.
43:23Please come home.
43:24I'm sorry.
43:25I'm sorry.
43:26We need you.
43:26I need you.
43:27Please.
43:28I shouldn't have thrown you out.
43:29I shouldn't have.
43:29I'll do anything
43:30to make it up to you.
43:31I promise.
43:32I will do anything.
43:33George, please.
43:35Please.
43:36Please.
43:37Please.
43:38Please.
43:43He's really sorry, Gary.
43:46He's hurting.
43:48Look, it's okay.
43:49I know what to do.
43:50Yeah, no, good.
43:51Keep the cycle of abuse going.
43:55Sounds healthy to me.
43:57Don't judge me.
44:01I really appreciate your help.
44:02You know, before I sign that, I'd like to know why you chose English Lit.
44:16You know, I'm the only Aboriginal professor in the history of this university's English faculty.
44:45It hasn't been easy, or quick, or even sensible.
44:51But I'm fucking passionate about it, and that's what gets me through all the red tape, all the whitefella bureaucracy.
45:00Passion.
45:00You know, you're welcome in my course next semester.
45:06But before you come back, I want you to ask yourself what you really want from life, Jared.
45:14What are you doing at my chambers?
45:32What are you doing at my chambers?
45:38I drove you home.
45:40Do you remember what we talked about?
45:41Yes, I remember.
45:42Do you remember we agreed that never happened?
45:44I'm sorry.
45:48I'm desperate.
45:49Look, I told you, I can't afford a mistrial.
45:51My wife, she has the same name as some woman on the Australian ISIS watch list.
45:58They won't let her into the country.
46:00They won't listen to us.
46:01They won't.
46:02I need a top immigration lawyer, too.
46:05I can't.
46:06I can't help you.
46:08Okay?
46:09I just, I can't.
46:11I can't help you.
46:14Well, no one in this country helped me.
46:21No one.
46:21No one.
46:22Yeah, hi.
46:50I need to speak to someone from Missing Persons, please.
47:16Mmm.
47:16Smells amazing.
47:20Yeah, I mean, all I can really smell is the stench of your rarefied guilty conscience.
47:26Wow.
47:27Do we not?
47:29I'm just, I'm tired.
47:30I'm not really in the mood for you.
47:32Theories on crime and punishment.
47:33Jesus.
47:38What the fuck was that?
47:39Just giving your attention.
47:42Look, you didn't play by the rules and someone got hurt.
47:46But he wasn't playing by the rules either.
47:50Okay, if he wasn't illegal, you would have taken him to the hospital.
47:52Look, I appreciate what you're trying to do, but he's dead.
47:58I have to live with that for the rest of my life.
48:02Yeah, I know you've been through some shit, I get it.
48:04You think you're the only one with guilty secrets.
48:17That story that I tell about my parents.
48:21Even I've started to believe it.
48:27I was having a shitty week and I wanted to blow off some steam, so I...
48:32got in touch with some random dealer.
48:37He turned up, I got in the car.
48:41I drove around the block a few times.
48:44Got chatting.
48:45Did a couple of bumps together.
48:54And I wasn't thinking straight.
48:59My parents were away and I invited him inside.
49:06He must have seen the house and seen money.
49:11In case the place came back two weeks later.
49:15I brought him to this house, Alexi.
49:21I need help!
49:24And he tried to promise that my dad caught him and then he killed both of my parents.
49:37How'd you know it was hidden?
49:38The police identified fingerprints and then they showed me a photo.
49:42A guy pleaded guilty and the case never went to trial and he didn't mention me either.
49:52Must be some kind of drug dealer code.
49:56Never told anyone.
49:58I don't know what to say.
50:16I don't know what to say.
50:20Nothing.
50:21There's nothing you can say.
50:26I don't know what to say.
50:27I don't know what to say.
50:27I don't know what to say.
50:29Thank you for coming over Diane, thank you for the help, we appreciate it.
50:54I don't know why she'd tell you to ask me, I don't know where she keeps her negatives.
50:58Why are you looking now?
51:07Well anything can help at this stage and the camera was on automatic so maybe there's something on there to indicate that Claire left the studio which would strengthen our case that she ran away or maybe someone else turns up, Nathan for instance we just don't know.
51:23Mr. Colby, Justice for Steve Duckage has just posted this in his story.
51:30Oh shit.
51:32What is it?
51:34Kate Lawson has killed before.
51:37Why?
51:38Why?
51:39Why would you do that?
51:44Why?
51:45Why?
51:46Why would you do that?
51:47Why shouldn't I?
51:48Because it's special.
51:49That is our work.
51:50It's not some stupid game you can play with your little friend, Claire.
52:05It's precious.
52:06Yeah but I can explain it to her.
52:07Too late.
52:08I can tell anyone to tell anyone.
52:09Too late.
52:10I'm taking Anita home.
52:11Do you know not everything belongs to you?
52:14It was my idea.
52:15You know and I have my own thing going on and I can do what I want.
52:20You are such a narcissist.
52:23What are you doing?
52:25I'm not doing the final piece now.
52:27You ruined it.
52:28You destroyed it.
52:30Do you think that I get off at pretending to be Melinda?
52:34So that you can play out your fucked up sex fetishes?
52:38What?
52:39You think I don't see it?
52:41You're using me.
52:43I'm not your muse.
52:44I'm just some dead girl.
52:46You can't get over!
