Summary *Coarse Language, Drug Use, Violence*The family desperately try to free Marou (Jimi Bani) who is being tortured by the DC bikies. The DCs - dealing only with Sissi (Suzannah Bayes-Morton) - tell the Montebellos they must decide what price to put on Marou's life and then the DCs will decide if it's a fair deal.Meanwhile Sissi is alarmed to encounter Paddy's nephew, the backpacking Thomson, who has come looking for his disappeared relative.Lola (Emma Lung) plays the dutiful daughter-in-law to the recovering Harry (Brian Cox), who appears not to remember anything about her blackmail of Gary (Firass Dirani).When Sissi delivers all the family's available cash and drugs to the DCs, they tell her that they want more - they want Noel (Aaron Fa'aoso) to pay for what he did. So, Kitty (Rena Owen) persuades Noel to turn himself in to the police for the bombing of the clubhouse and the murder of the DC's president.Marou is released but when the deal is explained to Harry, he speaks for the first time since his shooting. He says the price they paid for Marou's release was too high. Marou is devastated.PRODUCTION DETAILS:A Matchbox Pictures production in association with ABC TV.
