When he notes that Andrew is a wealthy man, Ron decides to get money from Andrew to travel to Thailand. Andrew notices that Dale resembles his fiancée, Gabrielle, who left him six months ago.

And pass me the tape, will you?

Ron, you promised.

I know, but that was

more of a little white lie.

You know that he had

his old man bumped?

He's not just a babe

in the wood, Dale.

Yeah, Gabrielle was

"writting" his old man...

so he had him knocked off.

How sick is that?

Now, the tape, Dale!

No!

Don't make me stand here.

Let him go, Ron.

Dale, we had no choice.

We have no choice.

We never did.

I don't want you to kill him.

You'd better make

a f***ing choice right now...

because there's gonna be

one dead prick in this room.

- Stop it!

- Him or me, Dale?

Stop it, Ron!

- Him or me, Dale?

- Stop it!

Think of this

as Dr. Ron's instant phobia cure.

Now she's been in there

about five minutes.

You get out there

and you turn that engine off...

or hell, we'll just pull her

to the house, won't we?

But if not...

well, you'll have to live

with that, won't you?

The man who couldn't walk

across his own backyard...

to save his girl.

Go on, Andy.

Come on, buddy!

Come on, you pathetic prick!

Giddyup there, Andy. Go on.

Come on, Andy. Go on.

That's it!

Go on! That's it, Andy.

Go on, that's it.

That's it.

You're nearly there, Andy.

Come on, And!

Get up!

Don't you quit on me,

Andy, come on!

There we go!

Oops!

- Did I lock it?

- Dale! Dale!

I'd make a bloody good shrink.

Don't you reckon, And?

Dale!

- At least you tried.

- Dale!

Hey, hey.

F***ing love this sh*t, Andy!

How long you reckon

she's got, buddy?

Three minutes or less?

She's dying, Andy.

You can run like

a bloody rabbit, Andy.

Dr. Ron was spot on,

don't you reckon?

That's because

we're the same, Andy.

Except...

I'm always one step ahead.

Very good, Andy!

Very good!

Come on, Andy!

Is that all you got, Andy?

You can do better...

Put your back into it, Andy.

Do it.

We're just the same, Andrew.

Dale. Dale.

Dale, come on!

Here we go.

You gonna ring the cops?

I have to.

I've got two dead bodies

on my property.

What about me?

I suppose you'll do some time.

You f***ing sh*t.

It's not as if the police

aren't gonna...

work out what happened, Dale.

I mean, what are our options?

I saved your life.

Twice.

Don't you mean three bodies?

Sorry?

What about your dad?

Isn't he buried out here?

Daddy's alive and well...

and living in Melbourne.

Wouldn't say we're exactly

on speaking terms, but...

I didn't kill him.

Say you love me...

like Gabrielle would say it.

"I love you".

I love you.

I don't believe you.

I love you, Andrew.

I love you.

Say you want me, Gabrielle.

I'm Dale, Andy.

Call me Andrew, Gabrielle.

Say you want me.

I'm Dale.

Yes, but say it like

Gabrielle would say it.

Go on, say it.

Yes?

- I want you.

- Yes.

Do you know where she is?

No.

Europe, I think.

What if she comes back?

She won't.

Doesn't she have family?

No, she lost touch with them.

Do you know, I think she

even changed her name.

Don't worry.

She's gone.
