Previously on Population 11...
I had the most frustrating wild-goose chase
with Cedric just now.
See?
I just wanna know the truth.
- Why? - I'm a journalist.
Jimmy mentioned something about a bunker.
If we find the bunker, we find the money.
It's gotta be there.
Fuck!
I'm running out of time.
And I'm not leaving until you tell me the truth
about what's really going on.
They made us open fraudulent accounts
and move money offshore for them
via this Australian account
that we set up in Hugo's name.
So, you became money launderers?
I'm worried we might have been exposed to some kind of fraud.
Fraud?
I know who murdered Hugo Drivas.
Of course, lots of clients have two accounts,
but it's the way one of the accounts is being used.
Well, lots of hospitality workers get paid in cash.
Yeah, but look.
All the money gets transferred overseas.
Again, the same pattern as migrant workers.
Perhaps Mr Liu is supporting his family.
I think we should file a suspicious activity report.
File a SAR?
Look, all these transactions are under, what, $10,000.
We're not obligated to report them.
I tell you what.
I tell you what. Look, I'll... I'll look into it.
There's something else.
I asked IT to find out who opened the account.
It was Andy.
What are you saying?
Dom,
you're one of our best. I trust you.
But Andy...
Andy is a good guy.
Look, there has to be some explanation for all this.
Hey, this is Andy.
I can't come to the phone right now,
so leave a message and have a great day.
Look, Lili's onto us, man!
Look, I can't wait for you any longer.
I'm going to the client.
We need to make the transfer and clean house.

So, it's a murder mystery?
No, it's a missing persons case
which evolved into a murder investigation.
OK. Well, can I hear a bit more about the story, then?
No. No details until you agree.
What makes your podcast so different?
I promise you everyone is gonna want this.
- OK, can I call you back? - Yeah, talk to you later.
What's going on?
Jimmy left last night.
Left? You mean...
What do you mean?
Gone.
"Time to move on," the note said.
Poor bugger.
Hugo's death really hit him hard.
You ready?
Always.
Hey, Val.
Good to see ya.
Crazy party the other night, eh?
Yeah. It got a little nuts. I wish I left with you.
Not with you. I mean when you did.
Anyway, while we're chatting,
I was wondering if you happen to know anybody
that smokes Kemp cigarettes?
OK, well, thank you.
Wanna go?
_
A quarter of a million dolars went missing.
Yeah, and Andy is taking care of that as we speak.
The problem is our manager.
- She's been poking around. - Why?
Dom, don't...
- Did you file a SAR? - No!
No. But she wants to.
Look, I think I've held her off,
but, look, we need to act fast. So...
if you can make another placement...
Dom!
You lost the client's money
and now you want the client
to trust you with more money?
Well, I'll transfer it immediately
and then close the account. It'll be as though it never existed.
And then
when Andy comes back with the missing money,
we can start over again
and I can even, layer a little extra on top for you,
free of charge.
Andy's in Australia?
Um, yeah, yeah. A small town called Bidgeegud, yeah.
But, look, he'll come through. I promise.
But, look, I need you to place the money
and then tell the client that everything's taken care of,
otherwise if my manager files that SAR...
I'll report it to them and see what they say.
Thank you. Thank you.

Andy, we've been searching for hours.
He built a bunker! I know he built a bunker.
Well, I can't think when I'm hungry,
so, why don't we go to Coolawah,
pick up something to eat and figure it out?
- Do you have a charger in here? - No! Wait!
Who...
Who are you?
- Andy, I can explain. - Who do you work for?
Nobody.
Look, if you just let me talk...
You've been bugging the whole town?
What the fuck is going on?
I'm making a true crime podcast.
I'm a journalist.
Well, I got fired, but if you just let me...
You've been lying to me
the entire time
for a podcast?!
I was gonna tell you. I was just waiting for the right time.
When was the right time?
Was there a specific episode where you were gonna reveal it?
Did I just ruin that for you? I'm so sorry.
All that stuff you told me yesterday, that was never gonna see the light of day.
That stuff about the international money laundering scheme?
That's just peripheral to you?!
I was never gonna broadcast it anywhere.
It was just research.
Research that could put me in jail.
I'm trying to help you avoid jail.
How?! By turning my life into a piece of entertainment?
By finding whoever killed your dad and getting your money back.
- Bullshit. You're in this for you. - And you're not?
Well, gambling on illegal stock tips was that for the greater good, was it?
I trusted you.
Wait.
You still can.
Andy!
Where are you going? You can't walk back to town.
I'll hitch.
Don't you know that's dangerous?
It's 48 degrees!
I don't even know what that number means!
_
This tip-off, who'd it come from?
A very reliable anonymous source.
And the evidence?
Solid as a rock.
You know, when you first came up here, Geraldine, I had my doubts.
I mean, that tattoo you've got
with a frog eating a baby, is it?
I... That...
But then you've shown yourself
to be dedicated and reliable,
and a big part of that
is from winning the trust of the locals.
That's no easy accomplishment.
I respect that.
You...
Thank you...
So, I'll tell you what,
you turn this little tip-off into a murder conviction...
and I'll see to it
that this job becomes yours once I move on next month.
Then this whole region will be your jurisdiction.
That would... That... that would...
I... That'd be an honour, sir.
I'd... be honoured.
Well...
go pick the fucker up.
- Get up. - Yeah, shit, OK.
- Thank you, sir. - Thank you so much, sir.
- You don't have to bow. - No bowing.
Out for a little Sunday stroll, are you, mate?
Hey, Trevor. Could I have a ride back to town?
Just get in the car, you wombat.
_
Hey, this is Andy.
I can't come to the phone right now,
so leave a message and have a great day.
So, just in case you're interested,
we're in the clear for a little bit, thanks to me.
But if you're not back with that money soon, man,
we're gonna be in big trouble.
Look, where the hell are you?
Answer your phone!
Like hell!
I am not going into your confessional.
Do you know why this is important?
No, Jimmy. Why is it so important?
Because... this is my confession.
With the eyes of God upon me...
I can only impart
onto thee truth.
Did you kill Hugo?
What? Hell, no! It wasn't me.
Then how is this your bloody confession?
Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned.
OK, get on with it.
In the beginning, there was a boy.
Bloody hell! 25 words or less, please!
If you keep interrupting,
this is only gonna take longer.
In the beginning, there was a boy.
Now, this young fella was brilliant at school.
His future was bright
and the whole world was laid before him.
_
So, what were you and Cassie doing out here anyway?
It's stupid.
Lot of stupid out here, mate.
When I was a kid, my...
Hugo built a bunker.
Preparation for the end of the world.
But the end of the world never came,
but it turned into this place
that he could escape to, you know?
Somewhere he could... he could hide his secrets,
bury his treasure, you know, his... his past.
When Jimmy mentioned a... a secret bunker,
we thought we'd go out and look for it.
Figured maybe it'd be
where Hugo did all the UFO tours, but...
I don't know.
Yeah? I do.
Mate, there's nothing secret about it.
Everyone knows about Hugo's bunker.
Take you there, if you want.
Really?
Thing is...
Cedric's bunker now, right?
Hugo lost it in a bet, the silly bugger.
What was the bet about?
Dunno. I can't even remember anymore.
All I know is that Hugo never forgave him.
For winning a bet?
Nah, nah, for actually holding him to it, you know?
Took us ages to build the bloody thing.
But secretly,
the boy,
he was a tortured soul,
and the truth about his feelings, he kept within.
Over time, these feelings festered and twisted
into thoughts of...
of heinous violence
towards the man he believed had wronged him.
Jimmy,
I'm a patient woman,
but I reckon the good Lord above's probably got other stuff to do,
so bottle the egg, mate.
And so,
one dark evening,
he lured this man deep into the bush...
and took a knife to him.
He cut his throat from ear to ear.
He hacked his victim to pieces
and left him for the wild dogs.
Then our young fella went on the run.
- Eventually, - _
he finds himself surrounded on a cliff's edge.
Now he's got a choice.
He can jump
or he can face up to what he's done.
He didn't jump.
He did 25 years for murder.
Where are we going?
Scenic route.
Why is that? You in a rush?
No, I just... Urgent call to make.
You can actually just drop me right over here.
I don't wanna be any trouble.
Nah, you're no trouble for me, mate.
Once he was released, he vowed to start over,
fully repentant.
He came all the way here to Bidgeegud
and, today, a murderer lives amongst us.
But as the Book of Job tells us,
you can run, but you can't hide.
Sooner or later,
someone was bound to find out.
And...
Well, that was my fault.
I just never thought he'd kill again.
Right, I'm gonna count to three.
After that, I'm booking you with obstruction of justice.
Why are we stopping?
Bunker's just over there, mate.
When you're done,
caravan park's just 200 metres away
through those bushes.
And don't forget what I said.
If you need somewhere to crash,
Moz and I would love to have you, OK? No worries.
I'll very much keep that in mind. Thank you.
Cedric?
The man he killed when he was young...
_
was his own father.
The murderer's name was Benjamin Schneider.
Who?
We know him better as...
- Cedric. - Cedric.
Cedric.
Come on, old fella.
Cedric.
Hi.
Listen...
I know that this is Hugo's...
was Hugo's bunker.
Jimmy told you?
Lousy priest.
He hears my confession,
gets pissed and then he blabs.
He told Hugo my secret,
now he's told you too.
No, he didn't tell me anything.
That's why Jimmy ran away.
Bloody coward.
And Hugo
tried to blackmail me
to get his bloody bunker back.
All this trouble
over nothing more
than a hole in the dirt.
Cedric! It's your favourite copper!
Yes.
I killed my father.
It's hard work, keeping your past in the past.
Back!
Stay back.
Listen, I don't care what you did, who you killed,
what kind of crazy shit lives in your past.
Just give me the money
and I'm gone.
What money?
You know what money.
Hugo's money!
I know nothing about any money,
but if you're anything like your father,
I know you can't be trusted.
You'll tell everybody,
reveal my past,
ruin my future
like he was going to do.
Well, I wouldn't let him blackmail me
and I'm not going to let you blackmail me either.
Drop it.
Thank God!
Put the knife down.
- What? - Now.
- But... - Now!
Andrew Pruden, you're under arrest
for the murder of your father, Hugo Drivas.
Hey, this is Andy.
I can't come to the phone right now,
so leave a message and have a great day.
Straight to voicemail?!
Come on, man. Call me back!
OK, Mr Biggles.
Hey!
What are you doing?
It's not Andy, it's Cedric.
- Cedric's the killer. - Step back, please!
How can he kill his father? He wasn't even here.
Look, we've got hard evidence, alright?
We found the murder weapon in the back of your boyfriend's car.
What?! How would I...
Murder weapon? But I thought...
Hugo was killed before he was burnt.
- We've even got a witness. - A witness?
That's crazy. Who?
- Big door, little... Big door! - Sorry!
Shit! Andy!
The whole time!
Didn't see that coming.
Far out, Brussels sprout!
Hey, this is Andy.
I can't come to the phone right now...
Damn it.
Hey, it's me.
Listen, something's come up.
I can't take Luna this weekend.
No, I'm gonna do the birthday party.
Yes, I told you I'll do the birthday party,
but then I gotta take off.
Australia.
