ANNOUNCER: Welcome back to 'Rise & Shine Australia'
and pull on your budgie smugglers
'cause Sydney's favourite weatherman
is taking us to Bondi Beach.
I'm Chris Masterman
and this is
'Rise & Shine Australia' weather.
That's right, folks.
Today I'll be bringing you the weather
live from Bondi Beach
where I'll be following a group of lifeguards
to find out exactly what makes a true hero tick.
Isn't that right, guys?
Guys?
No. Don't you dare.
Don't you...
And welcome to Bondi.
(LAUGHTER)
I guess that's back to wardrobe for me
and, uh, back to you in the studio.
Uh...
And... out.
Great. Hey, thanks so much, guys.
OK. That was...
- Did that work? - Let's pick it up
from the sound end for the regional report, yeah?
OK. No, I don't want anything. Hey, Liz. Liz.
Hang on. Liz. Wait up.
Uh...
Is it tr...
Is it true that Ted's looking for
a new host for 'Rise & Shine'?
Oh, you know I can't discuss that.
Yeah, I know that. I know that. But come on.
I think... I think he's looking for someone
who's into current affairs.
I can do that.
Ask me anything. The capital of any country.
Denmark.
(CHRIS CLEARS THROAT)
The capital of any country that speaks English.
Canada.
OK. That's a terrible example, but come on!
I've been doing the weather for six years.
I'm sick of being the guy that gets water dumped on him.
Chris, that was your idea.
No, Pants Off Friday was my idea.
- The wet T-shirt was... - Look, do you know what?
You want to be host and you want to be noticed by Ted,
show him that there is more to you than just... this.
Right. OK. Got it.
More what?

CHARLIE: You have to hide or Mum will freak out.
ROSIE: Thanks for letting me know.
You know who that was, eh?
Starts with 'S', rhymes with 'cool'.
Charlie, you can't keep wagging school.
The headmaster asked if we need to see a counsellor.
I mean, next thing
they're gonna be calling Child Services on me.
(ROSIE SCOFFS)
In case you haven't noticed,
I'm having a nervous breakdown here.
Maybe you should go call that counsellor, then.
(BOTH CHUCKLE)
I'm gonna have to put one of those eartags on you
like they do with kangaroos.
CHARLIE: Have to catch me first.
(BOTH LAUGH)
So, as a weatherman,
I've been thrown into
a number of life-threatening situations,
so, yeah, I've had the word 'hero'
flung at me from time to time.
But you guys,
you're the real heroes.
Go on, tell us the secret, Jonesy.
Well, uh, I don't know if you'd call us heroes, but...
- What the...? - ..we just keep people safe.
- CHRIS: Is that a shark? - JONESY: No, it's a dolphin.
CHRIS: Are you sure?
Yeah, yeah. It's a baby dolphin.
It's trapped in the pool.
MAN: I called them, Jonesy! ORCA are on their way!
ONLOOKER: Looks like a baby shark.
Here. Hold this. Phil, Phil, on me.
On me.
LIZ: Chris, what are you doing?
Just keep following
on me!
JONESY: Dude, dude, don't touch it!
Well, it's in trouble.
I can't just leave it there.
JONESY: There's a reason they come into the beach.
- LIZ: Chris! - (ONLOOKERS EXCLAIM)
Mate, we've called ORCA. Get out of the water.
- (ONLOOKERS CALL OUT) - (WATER SPLASHES)
(DOLPHIN SQUEAKS)

REPORTER: In a tragic twist
of the dolphin rescue yesterday,
the baby dolphin has been found dead on Bondi Beach.
Jonesy, what happened?
JONESY: The dolphin swam in just to have a bit of a rest.
I told the weatherman not to touch it,
but he just wouldn't listen.
REPORTER: According to experts,
it had been suffering from a lung disease
and swam into the shallows for some much needed rest.
We've yet to hear from the Channel 6 network.
(TV TURNS OFF)
TED: Might have known you'd blow it.
We just ignore it, right?
TED: I don't want anyone talking to the press.
Yeah, I mean, it'll blow over in a day or two.
(PHONES RING)
Right?
- (LIFT DINGS) - (PROTESTERS SHOUT)
- PROTESTER: Dolphin killer! - You should be locked up!
Well, I didn't know it was sick!
Move! Just move!
(PROTESTERS SHOUT)
Why do they hate me? That dolphin...
- Made you a hero for 24 hours. - I was trying to help.
No, you were trying to go viral to get noticed by Ted.
Because you told me to get noticed.
I did and... and you did and... and it backfired
and I'm really sorry.
But maybe just see this as a blessing in disguise.
A chance to really think about your priorities.
My car!
LIZ: I meant your life priorities.
- (PROTESTERS CHANT) - (CHRIS GROANS SOFTLY)
Hey.
Just... take some time out.
Maybe just try listening to this.
Who knows, it might actually make you happy.
(PROTESTERS CHANT)
Now, just go, OK?
PROTESTERS: What do we want? Masto out!
When do we want it? Now!
(KIDS CHATTER AND CALL OUT)
Just give it a go, Charlie.

No, no, no, no. That'll blow over in a couple of weeks.
That's fine.
Good-looking Aussie guy that loves the outdoors...
You're exactly what they want.
We've been trying to find someone like you for ages.
And now...
Now?
Well, now we can afford you.
Look, um, Sydney's an amazing...
..an amazing place to work...
We're thinking Broome.
I love Broome.
Yeah, I actually grew up in WA.
I... I own a Chevy Corvette. It was my dad's.
And, uh, in my 20s, we drove it up the coast.
Even better.
Drive it over there, we'll feature it in the show.
Stick it on the billboard.
- (CHRIS CHUCKLES) Yeah. - Yeah?
'Masto's World'.
'Masto's... World'.
And by the time you get over there, we'll have the money.
We'll see you in Broome.

Only three this time.
RALPH: Is the back gate open for them?
GWENNIE: Yep.
Charlie, they'll be fine. That's where they belong.
And I told you a thousand times before, no more roos.
- Someone else can save them. - That's not fair!
CHARLIE: Dad would've helped them.
But you don't care about him.
You don't care about Dad.
(ROSIE SIGHS)
Of course I care.
You don't think I miss him too?
Why did we leave, then?
(SIGHS)
I can't do this by myself, Charlie.
I needed to come home.
This town sucks!
There's no-one here!
Nanna's here, Grandad's here, I'm here.
I wish Dad was here and not you!

It's just me now.
So... please just... clean this mess up.
Now, don't say anything stupid, will you?
Well, what's that supposed to mean?

Mm.
Why don't you get her one of those oodles?
You know, those fancy dogs people have in the city.
They look like skinny sheep.

(POST-MIX GUN HISSES)
We get that pumped directly from a mountain
called Eyjafjallajökull.
It's in Iceland.
I was just asking.
Is there a menu?
Yeah. Ham sandwiches.
You don't have like a... a salad?
No, because then I would have said ham sandwiches...
..and a salad.
(CHUCKLES)
So that's the entire menu?
Yep. The full degustation.
CHRIS: Right.
I will take, um, the sandwich
and can I have lettuce inside?
No, because I don't have lettuce
because I don't have salad.
If you want salad,
you could go to the Lebanese place just down the road.
It's right next to Jamba Juice and the Sushi Spot
in the spiritual wellness centre.
OK, you don't need to be so bloody rude.

Tourism Australia should put you on a... retainer.

A few days.
Can you... can you give me a call when you get this?

CHARLIE: When it's all mixed,
then you've gotta pour the water in
and push the poo through down like that.
Yeah, gets all the good stuff out.
Voila!

There you go.
That's great. So he can take her.
He's dead.
Oh.
I'm sorry.
Plus, you probably don't know this,
but us mob have a custom out here -
whoever does what you did to the mother kangaroo
has to take care of the joey... or else!
Or else what?
You don't want to know.
- (DAVE GRUNTS) - CHRIS: OK.
Isn't there some kind of animal shelter I can take her?
How long's that gonna take?
DAVE: How long's a piece of string?
Yeah, about a week.
- A week? - DAVE: Mmm.
Is there...
Is there a motel around here?
Well, there's Jesse's pub.
CHARLIE: Yeah, that won't work.
No pets allowed.
I don't have a pet. This is not my pet.
You don't want to break the custom, Chris.
Really bad luck if you do.
Oh, yeah, custom.

CHARLIE: This is Chris.
GWENNIE: He's the one from the news.
RALPH: The one who killed the fish?
GWENNIE: He's reading our sign.
Don't stare. Pretend we're talking about your foot.
RALPH: What's wrong with my foot?
GWENNIE: We're being discreet.
RALPH: Then why are we talking about it?
- Can I book a flight? - BOTH: Where are you heading?
Broome.
Broome town, eh?
- That's where we used to live. - CHRIS: Oh.
GWENNIE: You're gonna have to go from Alice to Sydney
to Perth to get there.
I just came from Sydney, so...
He could do Kununurra, then Perth.
- What, and stop in Kalgoorlie? - Not if he goes via Karratha.
- On Bush Air? - Yeah!
May as well put him on a blind camel.
- You can't put... - (CAMEL GRUNTS)
Actually, we do have some lovely camel treks
if you're interested.
- CHRIS: I don't want a camel! - (CAMEL GROANS)
I just want a direct flight to Broome.
- OK, love. Keep your shirt on. - RALPH: Ah.
For now.
(GWENNIE GIGGLES)
But, seriously, there are no direct flights.
RALPH: Hmm.

No, I normally use the ensuite

Sorry. Why are you here?
'Cause my kid comes here
and I wanna know what she's doing with some stranger.
Right.
It's because of that, isn't it?
(GRUNTS SOFTLY, THEN SNIFFS)
You know, it wasn't my idea. I...
(WHISPERS) I killed her mum.
And now...
..because of the custom, I have to take responsibility.
- (WHISPERS) The custom? - (WHISPERS) Yeah.
(NORMAL VOICE) Did, uh, Charlie
tell you about this custom?
(WHISPERS) Yeah.
Look, um...
I've got an appointment in Alice tomorrow.
There's a vet next door if you wanna scab a lift.

Oh, I see.
No, I'm afraid not.
There must be some kind of shelter.
Yeah, just up the road in Ti Tree, 200km away.
Are you serious?
Who looks after them normally?
Chris, kangaroos aren't a protected species.
And mob won't look after an orphaned joey.
I mean, without a full-time carer...
..it's kinder to put them down.
I'm sorry - I know that's harsh, but that's the reality.

I'm sorry.
Charlie mentioned that he died.
I figured it hadn't been too long.
Not that long.
But he left some special things behind.
I'll never be remembered for something as special as this.
Nah, probably not.
But you've still got plenty of time, right?
I mean, you're only 40 or something?
And, you know, what I meant was...
You know, people don't remember you by the big things

Do you think I look 40?
ROSIE: Uh...

Great! You'll be here for the boat races.

Yeah, fantastic. Yeah.
I'll just wait here a while longer

Well, for your information,

But then they have the camel race.

That's when the trouble started for Macbeth.

CHARLIE: Welcome to country.
I thought it would cheer you up.
Look over there. That's where the pathways cross.
Pathways?
The ones they follow.
Kinda like a kangaroo highway.
That one goes all the way back west to my dad's country.
He loved kangaroos too.
Reckoned he was one.
Liked to jump, did he? (LAUGHS)
I'm sorry. You might have meant something spiritual.
CHARLIE: He did like to jump.
Dad used to say we're lucky, 'cause we've got two tribes -
our people and kangaroos.
But I'm starting to forget what he looked like.
Anyways,
this is a cool place to come if you're feeling like crap.
CHRIS: Charlie. Charlie, where are you going?
CHARLIE: I'll just be a sec.
I've got a surprise for you.
Their names are Lucky and Skip.
Your tribe's growing too, Chris.
No, Charlie. No can do.
Now that you've gotta wait for your distributor cap...
Charlie, I know you stole my distributor cap.
So what if I did?
It's not like you've got anywhere else to be.
When it's time,
we'll bring them back to country, where they belong,

Because you found people who liked you?
No.
I like me.
I'm glad someone does.
Very good.
And on that note, I will say goodnight.
(CLEARS THROAT) You should probably ice that arm.
Oh, wait, you don't have any ice.
Hey, Jesse...

Goodnight.
Thank you.

Your dad was amazing.

He painted this one for me.
We are the kangaroos.
Right.
Sorry, what does that mean?
The kangaroos are special to us.
Our totems.
That's why he painted them.
And how we're connected all the way back.
CHRIS: Ah!
I get it. Wow!
That's beautiful.
- Beautifuller. - Mm-hm. Brighter.

It's very cute.
It's kind of like a little cubbyhouse.
So who's this little one, then?
Liz.
Charlie, can you, um, make sure
the other joeys have their dinner, please?
Now? Thank you.
- Liz? - Yeah. That was a mistake.
Oh, I'll try not to take it personally.
Liz, meet Liz.
OK. OK, um...
(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)
Hi!
Hi there.
Here you are.
Thanks, Jesse.
Are you open for dinner tonight?
Absolutely, Liz.
And might I recommend the grilled barramundi
with wild rice pilaf
and steamed baby bok choy.
Could I get you some sparkling water for your room?
Oh, tap water's fine.
Oh, tap water.
LIZ: Amazing service!
Let's take a walk.

LIZ: Chris, you've been offered a job.
It's a fantastic opportunity.
It's Friday night. It's a prime-time slot.
They want me to fly down
and do segments about pet kangaroos?
No, Chris, they want you to host.
Your very own show.
Welcome back.
They want me to host?
It's what you've always wanted.
I...
Hey, Charlie!
CHRIS: Why don't you come down?
You can come up.
I reckon you'll be going back to Sydney now.
Maybe.
Maybe means yes.
No. It means maybe.
What about the joeys?
Well, maybe this is good timing, Charlie.
The shed's packed.
We can take them to that Ti Tree place.
You are leaving!
I haven't made any decisions yet.
Yes, you have! I can tell!
Charlie! Come on, it's getting late.
You can't send them away.
You saved them.
That's what you do.
You save animals.
I've got an opportunity that I've always wanted, Charlie.
What you did for that dolphin...
No, I didn't...
..was amazing and you can't leave.
I didn't do it for the dolphin, Charlie.
I did it for me.
To stand out.
To be noticed.
Us mob don't care about stuff like that.
We just want to belong.
Then why are you always running away
from people who care about you, Charlie?
No, Charlie...
Wait. Charlie!
Ooh! Ahh!
Charlie!
Ugh!
- KID: Where's she going? - CHRIS: Charlie!
- KID: Is she OK? - MAYA: Charlie!
Good one, mate.
Come on, Rosie.
I was never gonna be here long.
You know I'll do everything I can to keep these joeys safe.

I am.
It's the roos that I'm worried about.
You didn't want a bar of the kangaroos.
The little ones have just started to settle in.
Seems a shame to send them up to Ti Tree.
I've been teaching Liz how to shake hands
in case they ever do a remake of 'Skippy'.

your car was ready two weeks ago.

Oh.
