- [Narrator] Previously on McLeod's Daughters.
(soft music) - Stealin' my stuff.
- Who are you?
- Well that was gonna be my next question.
- I'm a friend of Brick's.
- Brick's away.
- He needed some more clothes.
- [Jake] Well does the friend of Brick's have a name?
- Yeah, a girlfriend actually.
Becky.
- Well, I'm Jake, I'm filling in for him.
- Terrance Dodge, I'm arresting you on a charge of disposal of stolen goods.
- Hey hey, how's this gonna help?
- Get in the car Terry.
- Get outta here Terry.
- No leave it, leave it mate.
- [Policeman] I'm certain about your opinion on this.
- Go on, leave it, leave it.
- You're under arrest for the disposal of stolen goods.
It's always between us.
- Can't go back and change it, can ya?
Worst luck.
- Legally I can't withdraw the charge but I'll speak on your behalf in court, explain things.
- Better than nothin'.
- I'd like you to meet my new business partner.
- Ryan McCleod Horse Training.
- McCleod Ryan, and eventually we'll be getting into breeding too.
- Congratulations.
- Wow.
- [Claire] Cheers.
(tense music) (insects chirping) (door knocking) - [Claire] All right, all right.
- Well who is it?
- I'm coming!
- Well don't open the door.
- [Claire] You got a better idea?
- Well don't you listen to the news?
A stranger knocks at the door late at night, says somethin' about his car breaking down.
Next thing you know, everybody's murdered.
- Hi, my name's Finn.
Look I'm sorry, I know it's late.
My van broke down.
I was kinda hopin' I could use your phone.
- Yeah, sure you can, but no one will come out at this time.
How far away is it?
- Guess I got lucky.
Stupid thing died just outside your gate.
- All right, guess we can go on up, have a look.
- Claire?
- Put the kettle on, I'll be back in a tick.
I'll stick my boots on and see ya out front.
(suspenseful music) - Hello Sergeant.
- Gungellan Police Station is unattended at this time.
Please leave a message.
- Look I'm sorry 'bout my sister mate.
No, I mean she's lived in the city so long, she thinks everyone's a potential ax murderer or rapist or, oh here we go.
(dramatic music) - Well I guess Finn found someone then.
- On you Finn.
Thought you'd be back with a crusty old farmer, not a good looking one.
(men laughing) - Hey, you just stay where you are.
My sister knows where I am, all right?
- Hey, it's cool.
- I said stay where you are.
- Relax, all right.
Give me the rope.
- Okay.
- Whoa, don't shoot!
- Don't move.
- Look look, we can explain.
- I said don't move.
- I'll get it.
Get your hand out.
You might wanna take a look at this, sis.
(light music) - You're strippers?
- [All] Yeah.
- You can put 'em down mate.
(upbeat music) ♪ It'll take some time to find your heart and come back home ♪ ♪ You could walk for miles, cross every river ♪ ♪ And find you're not alone ♪ ♪ 'Cause I'll be there ♪ ♪ Oh, oh ♪ ♪ Oh, oh ♪ ♪ Not alone ♪ ♪ Oh, oh ♪ ♪ Oh, oh ♪ ♪ 'Cause I'll be there ♪ ♪ Ooh ♪ - [Man] Yeah, it's one place.
- None for you.
- So, are we gonna get a preview?
- No way.
Gungellan's our first show.
We're still not quite used to the whole stripper thing.
- It's a bit of a fist for us too.
- Oh yeah.
- Kinda hopin' maybe this afternoon.
- No chance.
We gotta order in a new alternator and that'll take a couple of days at least.
- Looks like we're not goin' anywhere.
- [Becky] I'll make a call.
- Bummer, guess that means you'll have to stay here then.
- We'll sort somethin' out.
In the meantime, I've gotta me Alex and get some work done.
- Me too, pump won't fix itself.
- There's plenty of food inside.
Just help yourselves to some cereal.
- They've been driving for four hours.
I think they need a cooked breakfast.
- Well are you volunteering?
'Cause I'm going to go and feed the horses.
- Oh, well I have cooked before.
- That's right, I remember that one time.
- [Man] Can I give you hand?
- Thanks, I'm all right.
Please stay and enjoy my daughter's cooking.
- Your daughter?
(light music) I thought you were sisters.
- You're welcome anytime.
- I don't know.
I just think it's crazy he'd do it.
- Yeah well if you've got it, why not flaunt it?
- What, you'd do something like that?
- Yeah.
Point me at some women, I get my gear on.
- Oh that's right, karaoke 1997.
- Oh yeah, aided and abetted by Nick's home brew.
Looked good though didn't I?
- Now remember, you're here as a silent partner to show support and a full wallet, that's it.
- Trust me, my lips are sealed, Claire.
- Oh, and if his wife shows up, try and keep your clothes on, will ya?
- Go on, get in there.
- Well I like your training techniques, Claire, but what about Australian Bloodlines.
- Don't worry about them Neil, they're outta the picture.
- How long you reckon till Casino's ready?
- Oh, I think there's been a bit of a break.
Two to four months.
- I reckon we could have him ready for the Gungellan show.
Okay?
- But we couldn't guarantee that.
- You have my word, Neil, it's better than a guarantee.
- And how much?
- Same as before.
- Look, as a sweetener Neil, we'll cover Casino's cost in the show, okay?
- [Claire] That wasn't in the contract, Alex.
- But it can be in the new contract, Claire.
- Could you excuse us for a second?
What are you doing?
You know Casino won't be ready by then.
- Look, first rule of salesmanship, tell the customer what he wants to hear.
We'll deal with the show when the time comes, all right?
So Neil, you're an intelligent man and you know a good deal when you saw one.
So what do you say?
- Oh, I'll think about and get back to you.
(light music) - Which part of silent partner don't you understand?
- I had to do something, you were losing him, all right?
- I am the trainer.
- Yeah, and you're a good trainer Claire.
But what you know about selling isn't fit to fertilize Killarney.
- (scoffing) Thanks a lot mate.
Actually I know quite a bit about fertilizer than your like.
- Oh yeah, turn it up.
- Oh, I reckon there's a sauce spoon under the sink you might have forgotten to use.
(light music) - So you girls run this whole place by yourselves?
- Yup.
(both laughing) - I gave the mechanic in Gungellan a call.
He said that he can get an alternator in by tomorrow.
- Oh that's too late.
We've got the hall booked tonight.
We gotta drive around and deliver fliers.
- Well, you can try the mechanic in Fischer, but I don't like your chances.
(man belching) - Sorry, it's been a bit crook.
- [Tess] Could it be the idea of going naked in front of the whole town maybe?
- No, that doesn't bother me.
If no one knows about the show then.
- Hey, that's okay, I can drive you 'round.
- Uh, no you can't, you've got work to do.
- But Mum?
- The boys can get a lift into town with the mail van.
You can start with the dishes.
- I'll get the gear out the Kombi.
- A lift won't do it.
We need that van to put up posters and deliver fliers, otherwise.
- That's all right, I can do ring around.
- [Finn] Ah, it's not enough.
- Why not?
(somber music) - We need a full house.
I wouldn't ask, but it's not for us.
- Finn, it's okay, you can tell me.
- We're raising money for Michael's little brother.
- What about him?
- He's in a tractor accident last year.
It's bad.
- [Tess] Hey.
- Hey.
- My seeds arrived yet?
- I reckon?
- Really, where?
- Can't miss 'em.
- Come on, Oscar.
So I've been researching this for months.
I've got the land, I've tested the soil, and I got a real bargain on the seeds.
300 bags instead of a field bin.
(whimsical music) Wow.
bags is really quite a lot, isn't it?
- Yeah, I reckon you got yourself a real bargain.
- I got your message.
- Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to call you back.
- That's okay Tess, I rang earlier.
Claire told me you were still alive.
- Oh, right.
Can I get you a drink or something?
- Actually, you wouldn't know where Meg is, would you?
- Yeah, she's in the veggie garden, Frank.
- Got a lotta seeds there.
That'll take some moving.
(chickens squawking) - So what does your girlfriend think of your stripping?
- Oh, I don't have a girlfriend.
- Really?
Good looking boy like you.
Thanks.
Well don't worry, after tonight they'll be beating a path to your door.
- Meg.
- Oh Frank, almost didn't recognize you.
- Could I have a minute?
It's about Terry's charge.
Trial's coming up and I was wondering if you'd be a character witness.
It's pretty straightforward.
You'll be asked how long you've known Terry, exactly the nature of your relationship.
- In court?
- It's simple, 15 minutes, you aren't on trial.
- I'm sorry, I can't help you.
- But he could go to jail.
(dramatic music) - You should've thought of that before you pressed charges.
- I know, that was my mistake.
- Certainly was.
- So you'll do it?
- No.
- Why?
- My reasons are my business.
- Hey Tess, you don't wanna go for a drive, do you?
Past a few mailboxes.
I've got some fliers that need delivering.
- Sure, if you can snap fingers and have these packed away before Claire gets back.
- Too late.
- Hey, we do have a house filled with able bodied men for a change.
- [Alex] Let me do the talking.
- You're making me look bad, Alex.
Just keep your big mouth shut.
(tense music) - Claire, will you listen to me?
We have to work together.
- No we don't actually we can work apart.
Here's your half of the client list.
We can see who gets the most clients.
- Yeah fine, bring it on.
Anytime, any service.
- Don't worry, I'll get rid of them.
You don't have to do a thing.
- What?
- My organic wheat seeds, they'll be moved before you know it.
- You said wheat, you never said organic.
- Well, apart from making good business sense, they're environmentally friendly and organic produce sells for 20% more so I just thought it'd be-- - Won't the whole property have to be chemical-free?
(dramatic music) - Oh bugger.
Bugger bugger.
- Look I'm not tryin' to pester you, I just don't understand.
You already stuck up for him once.
- That was in a police station, not in a public court.
- What's the difference?
- Who else is speaking for Terry?
- Well me, of course, as the person who charged him, Harry as his employer, Alex who works with him.
- And what capacity would I be speaking in?
- Well as his friend.
You've known him longer than anyone.
- Terry and I are more than friends.
- [Frank] So.
- Perhaps it's the worst kept secret but, there's a difference between everyone thinking they know your business and getting up a spelling it out.
- You care that much what other people think?
- This is a country town Frank, you've been here five minutes and you're probably only gonna be here another five.
I have to live here.
- I don't know how many times I've spoken to them and no one ever mentioned anything about the entire property converting to organics.
- Oh, what are you doin'?
(man retching) - What's up with him?
- Okay, it's tonight and so you have to help.
I've got Craig delivering fliers but not everyone's gonna see them.
- Where's the dog meat?
- So I've made up a list if you can do a ring around.
- [Meg] It was in there last night.
- Mum, this is important, okay?
When you talk to them, you have to remember to tell them about Michael's little brother.
- I was gonna toss it out 'cause it was a bit on the turn.
Jodi, did you move it?
- Mum who cares about off dog meat?
(man retching) (all retching) - They were fine a minute ago.
- Oh my God!
I've poisoned the strippers.
(men groaning) - [Woman] You gonna throw up?
- You know maybe it wasn't the meat.
I mean you're not sick.
- Well I didn't have any.
I thought it tasted a but funny, but I didn't want to say anything.
- Hey, what are we gonna do about the show?
- What?
- We have to do something.
Michael's little brother was injured in a tractor accident a few months ago and now he's in a wheelchair.
- Oh my that's horrible.
- Well he's getting released from hospital in a few weeks and they're tryin' to raise money so they can have the wheelchair ramps and rails all ready for him.
- All right, what can we do?
- We could always strip ourselves.
- No, Mum would kill me.
(horn honking) Well, there's the mail.
(fingers snapping) (bright music) Uh huh.
Hey, thank you so much for doing this Craig.
- I'm only delivering fliers.
- Uh, you know what?
There is one other little thing.
You see, the strippers have come down with food poisoning.
There's a slight possibility it was my fault so I have to find replacements.
- Jodi.
- Wait, I'm not finished.
I know it's a lot to ask but remember it's for a little boy who really needs the money and it would only mean being fully naked for like a few seconds.
- Jodi.
- I'll be forever grateful.
- I'll do it.
- You will?
- Sure, no problem.
- Thank you.
- You want me to get my gear off?
- Yeah.
- In front of the whole town?
- Well, yeah.
- Why not, there's nothin' on television tonight anyway.
- You'll do it?
- Yeah, it's for a good cause isn't it?
- Thank you.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you.
- I don't know.
You know, I mean I've never stripped off naked in front of a crowd of strangers before.
- There's nothing to it.
- Is that right?
- Yeah, you just gotta smile and take your clothes off, slowly.
- Ah, oh you mean like this?
- Yeah but slow.
And sexier.
You're not takin' your clothes off to put in the wash, you're doin' a strip.
Nice.
Very nice.
(Becky laughing) Yeah, that should do it.
- You know they're all cute, but Finn's the best.
- Demarcated land.
This is a huge property, it's not like I'm gonna plant my wheat right next to the sheep dip.
- You know they're never gonna forgive me.
I've ruined everything.
- Does the whole place have to be organic before I can plant my seeds?
- Tess, it's five hours to the show and we've only got three guys.
- Four.
- Four?
- Yeah, the new guy from Killarney, Jake.
- If you ask Nick, that's five, perfect.
- No no, I can't I've gotta-- - We'll move the seeds.
Come on, he won't say no if you ask him.
- No.
- But I promise I won't look.
- Sorry.
- Well, I might take a peek but it won't take any photos, or if I do they definitely won't be published on the net.
Well Craig and Jake and Terry, they're all doing it.
Am I gonna have to tell everyone you're too shy?
- You can tell them whatever you like.
- I've seen you dance, Nick, you're very cute when you dance.
This'll be the same thing except you're naked.
- I'm not doing it.
- But why?
I mean there must be some reason-- - This is ridiculous.
It's another one of your dumb ideas.
I don't want anything to do with it so just back off.
- Is he gonna do it?
- No.
- [Jodi] Why not?
- Let's just get on with it.
(light music) - Well he's obedient, responsive.
Now all he needs to be a great stud horse is the right trainin'.
- You'll have all the security of the Ryan name, Killarney's top notch facilities and reputation.
- Yeah, well I'm in charge of the training and I've got a partner for the financial backing, but he's silent.
- See, now I'm in charge of all the financial backing.
Now, I have a partner for the training.
- But I can assure you I've got the money.
Oh, well not me personally but.
- Obviously, Warren I'm not personally doing the training so I couldn't say.
- No no, I'm not hiding anything, I just.
- So you'll call?
- Or should I give you a call then?
- Hey, I thought Patterson was on my list.
- Oh I just saw him.
- Yeah, how'd it go?
- Yeah he's gonna ring when he's decided.
- Good.
- How you going?
- Excellent, yeah.
- Good.
Well I've still got a couple more to see.
- Yeah me too.
- See you at Drovers then.
- Yeah righto, good luck.
- (scoffing) Don't need it.
- How'd you go?
- You?
- No one's signed up.
- I haven't gotten anyone.
(soft music) - They wanted to meet the trainer.
- Mine finance.
- Looks like we're stuck with each other.
- Yeah, looks that way.
- Well.
- If we're gonna work together, you just gotta understand I've got a certain way of doing things.
- Yeah, but it's not the only way, right?
- But I'm the trainer so it's my way that counts.
- Claire, without my money you've got nothin' to train.
- Oh, we'll see about that.
- What's that supposed to mean?
- It means I'm calling this whole thing off.
- No you're not, I am.
- Right, that's it!
You two should hear yourself.
This isn't just about business, you're friends, and if you don't sort it out then it's all over.
(pensive music) Came to borrow the combine if that's okay.
- It's no good to you, it's got chemical residue.
- Actually I'm gonna plant my wheat in the regular way.
At least try and get some of my investment back.
- It's a shame, there's good money in organics.
- And I came to apologize.
I didn't mean to push it about the stripper thing.
So I promise I won't mention it again.
Friends?
- Yeah.
- But hypothetically in a friends again sort of a way, I think you would've been terrific, but I can understand why you don't wanna do it.
It's a really big thing getting naked in front of a whole-- - You really wanna know why I don't wanna go on a stage in front of all those people?
Do ya, do you really wanna know?
- Sure.
(somber music) Wow.
Musta' hurt.
- It's not the pain that bothers me.
- I didn't know.
- Now you do.
- Well what I see is a gorgeous guy with war wounds.
- That's not the way I see it.
- I guess it's about whether you wear your scars or your scars wear you.
- Well the trouble is every time one of us says something, the other one disagrees.
- No we don't.
I don't know, maybe we do.
- I reckon we go to Neil Thompson's tomorrow and we just try agreeing with each other.
- I can't see the point, Claire.
Let's give it a go.
- All right, now I say something and you say something.
- Then I say something.
- And you say something short.
- Okay.
- Right.
See you tomorrow.
- Tomorrow.
Psst, hey Jodi.
I hear you're lookin' for strippers.
- Yeah.
- Well I've had experience.
Karaoke 1997, I was a huge success.
- Oh, I don't know, Alex.
I mean you're a bit late.
All the other guys had to go through a pretty grueling audition process and, well you don't even really know the routine do you?
- No.
- You're hired.
Rehearsal's in 10 minutes.
(light music) And five, six, seven, eight.
And turn, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
Walk one, two, three, four, hats off, six, seven, eight.
And step, step, two, three.
Stop, just stop it.
Just stop, okay.
Okay, shh.
You, stay back.
You, stay forward.
And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
Ron take over, one, two, three, four.
- Five, six, seven, eight.
- Come on, haven't got all day.
Space between, please.
- Seven, eight.
And one, two, three, four.
- Craig, wrong leg.
You guys want fame?
Well fame costs and right here is where you're gonna start paying in sweat.
- Who said anything about fame?
- Talking won't get you there, Terry.
Wishing isn't gonna get you there.
Alex, come on I wanna see some sweat.
Let's go.
Craig, you suck.
Let's do it again.
Five, six, seven, eight, Terry wrong leg!
Come on, you're sexy, you're strippers, let's go.
Don't just hear the music, be the music.
Space in here, space in here, wrong leg.
- Too hard.
- Be the music!
Come on!
- How 'bout we just do this?
- Thank you very much, Elvis!
(light music) Be proud boys, you've earned them.
And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.
And one, two, three, four.
What are you doing?
- [Men] We're tired.
- Hey, aren't you guys ready yet?
It's time to go.
- What?
- Oh my God!
And the special effects have been taken care of.
- Oh good.
- Special effects?
- Yeah, just some final decorative touches.
Now come on, everybody in the car let's go!
And remember, if you forget the step just-- - Yeah we know, we know.
Be the music.
- Don't worry, no one will notice you're dancing once you got your gear off.
- [Alex] Ha ha ha ha.
- Mum, you ready yet?
Hi, just a sec.
Come on Mum.
You know we're going in a sec, right?
- You go on, I'll wait.
- For what?
- Wow.
- Thank you.
- You've got to be kidding me.
- What's wrong with Jodi?
- It's quite possible she thinks I'm attracted to you.
(soft music) She's right.
I think you're gorgeous and I'd really like to take you out.
- Out?
- I know there's an age difference, but I don't care what people think, stuff 'em.
If you like someone, you like someone, end of story.
- Come on, Mum.
- Yes, right, let's go.
- He's practically my age.
You're my mother, you could be his mother, it's disgusting.
And that's what you told him, right?
You're not actually thinking about it and do you have any idea what the whole town's gonna say?
- Maybe I don't care.
- Here everybody is.
- Good day.
- Tess has gone ahead to see how many people have arrived.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- It's a sell out, it's practically full already.
- [Man] Well how many you reckon, 100, 150?
- Yeah, maybe more.
- [Man] I didn't expect such a crowd.
- And everyone wants to see you guys naked.
- Shouldn't you guys be getting ready?
- Yeah, come on.
- Good luck.
- I'm gonna go with them.
Try not to pick up any more young boys on your way in.
- Good on you for doing this Terry, very brave of you.
- Jodi asked me to do it, didn't wanna let her down.
- [Woman] I reckon it's been 20 years since I saw a man naked other than Philip.
- How do you think I got front row seats?
- [Woman 1] It's so cold in there with the shrinkage.
Won't see a thing out the back.
- [Woman 2] Don't worry, I've brought Toby's binoculars.
- Oy, come on.
- Look, I really have to go.
I was only just dropping off the missus.
- Just two minutes of your time please, Neil.
- Neil, Claire and myself have had a chance to discuss things.
- Yeah, and although we might disagree at times, it's the.
- The heated discussions.
- That bring about the best results.
- You know that neither of us could achieve on our own.
- Yeah.
You won't find two people more committed to the training of your horse than my business partner and me.
- Couldn't have said it any better meself.
- Thank you Alex.
(light music) - Well, what do you know Claire, it worked.
- Either that or Neil didn't wanna be seen in a male strip show.
- Trick is to be professional.
- Yeah, wonder how professional you're gonna look prancin' 'round in your undies.
- I'd better go get ready.
- Is Nick with you?
- No, haven't seen him.
- Okay, ladies and gentlemen, please give a big round of applause to, no.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome.
- This is too many people.
I can't do this, there's just too, too many people.
- Rowan, argh!
- It's really filling up out there.
- Hey, do you know I think I got a kid's G-string?
Does that look way too small to you?
- Yeah, who woulda thought gettin' your gear off would be so difficult?
- Okay guys.
Let's do it.
- Guys, Rowan's sick.
Okay, we have to go on with four.
- Four's good, four's okay.
- Oh my God, my mother's out there.
I'm not doin' this.
Forget it.
- Craig, she's your mother.
She's seen it all before.
- Yeah, but I've grown since then.
- Three's good, three's okay.
- Are you kiddin'?
No, no way.
- All right, I'll do it by myself.
One's good, one's okay.
(voices clamoring) (audience applauding) - I think we should go and have a look.
- We'll be back.
- Guys, please, okay?
- What are you guys doing?
- They're gonna start a riot out there.
- Oh my God, this isn't happening.
- I can't do it, Jodi.
I can't go out there.
- How can you be so selfish, Craig?
When there is a little boy out there who needs wheelchair ramps and you can help him.
- My mother would die if she saw me out there.
She'd kill me first and then die.

Can't afford the seeds.
Could be looking for a partner.

It's two brothers, in fact, twins.
