able to pick the kids up or not?

Dave?

She was upset?

Eh? What?

I'm just asking how was she?

As you'd expect she's upset.

She's all over

the place.

But look I'm really going to have to go.

Um just can you can you give me a yes or a no?

Can you grab the kids otherwise...

Yeah I'll pick them up.

I'll pick them up.

Okay, cool!

Love you!

Bye.

I'm so sorry about that.

- Hello everybody!

- Hello

Work.

Point!

An Australian tourist missing for nine days

from a remote Cambodian holiday destination

remains unaccounted for despite an extensive search.

The Department of Foreign Affairs now holds grave concerns

for the welfare of 37 year old

Sydney business man Jeremy King.

Last seen by friends dancing at a party

in the small southeast coastal town of

Sihanoukville early on November the 17th.

An area undergoing a...

Why are you here?

...acting like nothings happened?

Why are you here?

Well I'm stuck over there having to answer

they're f***ing questions.

You weren't even returning my phone calls...

I understand but your idea was...

You don't just race over here and then

pretend like nothing's f***ing happened.

- Step up and own it. Take responsibility.

- Where are the kids?!

Oh no.

Oh sh*t... I forgot Al I'm sorry,

I'll go now. I'll go now.

Mom, I know, I know, I'm sorry.

Get your stuff you're not staying here.

- Oh you're a f***ing coward!

- Stay with you Mum.

He's fine he forgot.

Al I'll get them I swear I'll do it alright?

Just relax.

- On your way then.

- Seriously I'll get them I just forgot.

What's wrong?

Nothing's wrong.

She's...she's upset.

- What's happened?

- Nothing Al, look l...

Steph?

I'll be back in ten okay?

I don't want to do this anymore.

Do what?

- Hey I...look...what...why don't you...

- Don't!

What's going on?

I don't know.

If you don't tell her I will.

Tell me what? Guys come on

you're scaring me.

Dave.

I was going to tell you Al when

once everything had settled down.

But um...

Something happened.

The night of the party in Sihanoukville...

After you went to sleep...

What happened Dave?

What happened?

We slept together.

We were crazy drunk and...

- It didn't mean anything Al.

- I'm sorry.

We were just wasted and we were dancing...

Steph, Steph.

I'm sorry.

I promise you that I was...

F***!

You'd better go.

- Good job.

- I think you would look really good in this.

What?

Wow check it out! Sexy!

That's weird it kind of actually

works with your outfit.

- Oh please!

- It does.

- My God we're going to have to buy this.

- That's him.

- He's cute.

- Yeah he's cute!

- Don't - he's going to see you.

- Sorry.

OK.

Hi.

Anyway he's going to pay it because

he works over there a bunch and he can just

write it off on tax or whatever.

Wow!

Like you should just come.

God, what is the big problem

it is a week.

That's it.

We're just going to hang by the pool and we're going to sun tan.

No phones. No kids.

- No money. Mortgage. School fees next year.

- It is cheap there.

You so...have you every been there?

It's like...

...dirt cheap.

Anyway it's only money you'll find out.

I think you've only known him like six weeks.

Yeah, exactly...and that is why

I really want you to come.

Otherwise I'm going to be stuck by the pool.

On my own while he's off working.

Look it...whatever it's fine

all I'm saying is just...

I do not know...

you're going to go through

all of that same pregnancy baby stuff for the next two years and...

...it's going to be harder now because you're going to have three kids

and you're never going to be able to get out.

You need to loosen up.

What?

So remind me who I was

supposed to be going with?

It's not like you don't know Steph...

...and this guy he's cool he's really interesting.

- Super excellent.

- Yeah he is.

- He's different from all the others.

- Does he wear a leather jacket?

I don't know maybe, but I reckon

you'd really like him.

Come on!

You're just giving up on him.

I thought we were planning on getting you a bigger car.

And I just lost two really good contracts.

I want to go.

Everyone says that everything's going to pick up.

No...no...no...don't...

Not tonight.

You don't dare...

Okay, alright, alright...

Okay, what?

- Okay...

- Did I hear okay?

- No...

- Okay what?

- Okay what?

- We'll talk about it.

- Okay what?

- We'll talk about it...tomorrow!

Yeah thanks for everything.

picking him up at the airport in 20 minutes.

- Mom I want to go home!

- Alright okay

- I'm not here.

Hi David.

She just left. You just missed her.

- Mom I want to go to sleep.

- Mom are you crying?

Not here.

- Hey here you are.

- See what did I say?

Straight away please.

I thought we were having ice cream?

Max, settle down and eat your baked beans

and then you'll get some ice cream.

Stop that Max!

- Sh*t.

- Are you alright?

Hey mate not yet.

Not yet. Not yet.

If you eat your baked beans and then I will

give you the ice cream I promise. That will be a deal.

I want ice cream...

- Yeah

Al?

Alice?

Is there anyway at all of tracing it?

If it shows unrecognized, the number is either

privately listed

or originated from overseas.

can you find out which country?

We can only see the details like this call came

from overseas. Beyond that we have no access.

- Okay.

Thank you.

Hello. Where are you from?

Yeah...cool...cool. Yeah.

He didn't say anything.

Seriously Dave, I'm not going to go

completely changing the routine.

But Al, listen -
