Tori.
Come on, girl.
It's three foot north shore.
Dad, five more minutes.
More waves for me.
Mm.
You should replace that thing.
Never.
Not a bad day for a dawny, with my favorite dad.
Your only dad.
Yeah, and that makes you my favorite.
Well, your favorite dad's about to steal your wave.
Hey!
Show off.
- How's that? - Not bad.
You could still put more snap in your turns though.
- Really? - Yep.
Let me show you how it's done.
Just like your mum.
You were saying?
What does he want?
Dad, what does he want?
I don't know.
Whatever.
Nice waves.
She's learned good.
She's a natural.
She's got a good teacher.
What do you want. Murph?
I need you back, Logan.
That ain't gonna happen.
Well,
things are getting worse.
Those Pouakai,
gone way outside their turf.
Last week,
they robbed a place on Kensington.
That's two blocks from my pad.
- Not my problem. - Yeah.
Well, they're gonna make it your problem.
Paulie caught wind of their next move.
They're planning on taking out the leadership,
strike the shepherds so the sheep will scatter,
kind of stuff.
Still not my problem.
Present and past leadership.
Just to make sure the job's done.
They'll come for you too, Logan.
That might not have bothered you back in the day,
when you had nothing to lose,
but things are different now.
You gotta think about what's best for her.
I think about what's best for her every damn day.
That's why I'll never come back.
You gotta do what you gotta do.
Murph.
You should lay low for a while.
Nah, bro,
Mad Bulls need me...
and I need them.
You gotta do what you gotta do.
So I was thinking.
Why don't you come with me to youth tonight?
Nah, I don't think so.
Last thing you want is your old man kicking around.
Lots of Dads are there.
To keep an eye on you lot, no doubt.
Yeah, well, you know me,
always up to no good.
Yeah.
So you'll come?
I'll think about it.
Good enough.
It's seriously out of control. And what's worse,
is that most people are just going about their lives,
totally unaware it's even going on,
until it spills out into the streets.
Then it makes headlines, and everyone seems shocked.
How do you propose we deal with this?
The only way is to cut it off at the root.
Make it flat out illegal.
Illegal to wear a patch,
illegal to be in a gang.
That's extreme, isn't it?
Well, desperate times call for desperate measures.
Thanks for calling in.
We're gonna go to our next caller.
Next...
Son of a...
In a hurry there, Mr. Buckland?
Allison Krauss start at 9.
Don't want to be late.
Ha, that's funny.
Couldn't help but notice
the ol' pole wagon on your tail.
Anything you want to share?
No.
Nothing to declare, sir.
It's Alan.
Sir makes me sound old.
Look Logan,
getting out couldn't have been easy.
But you made the right call.
Uh huh.
It'd be nice to think you moved on
from all of that, for good.
Are we done?
We're done.
Listen, if you need anything,
just give me a call.
Now watch your speed.
Yes, sir. Sorry,
Alan.
Hands up, come on, come on.
Come on Rob, keep your hands up.
Damn it, Rob, you're leaving yourself wide open!
I told you to keep your hands up.
That's enough for today, guys.

Yeah.
What's going on?
Murph came around this morning.
Well, can't say that I didn't see that coming.
What did you say?
I said no.
And that's that.
What is it?
Murphy reckon the Pouakai are coming for home.
And for me.
Really.
Why now?
I don't know.
Well,
God help them if they do.
It's not me I'm worried about.
Tori.
Coop,
- I've already lost her mother. - Mate.
The past is the past.
You have to let that go.
Easier said than done.
Yeah.
I hear ya.
Hey.
Why don't you take tonight off?
- Nah, I'm fine. - Go on.
I can run the lads through a circuit.
Yeah, right.
Hey, just me.
Tor?
Coming.
Gotta go, see you tomorrow.
Hey.
Who were you talking to?
No one.
Just myself.
You hungry.
Definitely.
What are we having?
Oven roast chicken,
mash with garlic butter,
and honey glazed carrots.
Hmpf.
What?
Nothing.
Tell me.
Your mum used to make it all the time.
It was like her specialty or something.
Except she always snuck the garlic out of mine.
Huh, garlic breath.
Nah, didn't agree with me.
Going in was fine.
It was what came out afterwards,
- that was the problem. - Dad.
So how was it?
Not bad.
Could have used more garlic though.
- Like mother, like daughter. - Yeah.
You got that right.
It's okay to talk about her, you know.
Well,
I think it would be nice to talk about her.
Tori.
Forget it.
What time are you heading back to work?
Coop gave me a night off.
So you can come with me to youth then.
Come on, Dad, you said you'd go.
I said I'd think about it.
Well, you'd really like it.
Look, I know you're into the whole church thing,
and I'm happy for you. I am. But it's not for me.
How do you know if you won't try?
- Let's all give it a rest. - Come on.
Enough!
If you want to go, then go.
Leave me out of it.
See ya, Dad.
I'll be home by 10.
Love you.
- Hey, Tor. - Hey.
Tor.

Well, you do now.
...can Jaz stay here?
- Hey...? - Not a chance.
So what Mr. Banks means
is Jeffrey's not feeling well now,
and it's not the best time...
I'll do whatever Jeffrey do.
Jeffrey bathes.
Tori?
Hello.
Who is this?
Change. Make change.
Come on, be home. Pick up.
Hi, it's Tori,
sorry I can't come to the phone...
Damn it.
Coop! Coop!
Coop!
You okay.
They were looking for you.
I told them I didn't know where you were,
but they're hard of hearing. Where's Tori?
- We gotta get you to the hospital. - Logan.
- They hunt in packs, where's Tori? - I don't know,
I've looked everywhere.
She should be at home.
Then that's exactly where you should be.
Go I'm fine.
Call the cops.
And send them to my place.
Hi, it's Tori,
sorry I can't come to the phone right now...
Hello.
Tori, listen, I need you to lock all the doors.
- Where are you? - All the doors.
- What's going on? - Do exactly what I say.
Lock the doors.
Okay.
- Doors are locked. - Good.
I need to go out front, see if any cars are there.
- There's no one there. - Are you sure?
Dad, what's going on?
Coop got attacked tonight.
I think it might be the Pouakai.
- Is he okay? - He'll live.
I got him to call the police. They should be there soon.
Tori!
- Where is he? - What do you want?
- Ahh! - Tori.
Put it down.
- Tori! - Let me go!
Did you lose?
I swear to God, if you touch her...
It's a bit late for that, don't you think?
- Now, where is it? - Where's what?
Don't toy with me, Logan. I'm not in the mood.
We know Murphy gave it to you.
Murphy? I haven't seen him in months.
Dad, they've got a gun.
Tori, it's gonna be okay.
Listen to him, is it really gonna be okay?
You better start talking.
Okay, look,
Murphy came and saw me this morning.
But he didn't give me anything.
Right, next shoot her.
Hey! Whatever it is you're after, I don't have it.
You know, Logan,
you really shouldn't leave little girls at home,
- all on their own. - Listen.
You know me.
You know what I'm capable of.
You do not want to do this.
Close your eyes, sweetheart.
Dad...
I love you.
Listen, I'm telling you,
I don't have...
We'll see you soon, Logan.
Tori!
Tori.
I'm sorry, baby.
You can follow them if you like.
Logan.
I'm really sorry, mate.
We'll be launching an immediate investigation.
So when you're ready,
I need to ask you a few questions.
Yeah.
I know how it works.
You think he knows who did it.
He knows, all right.
And he won't talk.
Neither will Coop.
That's a gang thing.
I thought Logan was out.
You think he'd retaliate.
I guess we'll find out.
So you want to be a Pouakai, hey, boy?
Well, you're gonna have to get through me first, my boy.
Fight's time.
Ah!
Get up, get up!
Ooh!
He's goin' down.
So you still want to be a Pouakai, my buddy?
Is there anyone else?
Huh?
Is there anyone else?
You know...
one of these days,
you're gonna be the guy alone on the floor.
Any luck?
I guess we should've asked for the password,
before we put a bullet in her head.
Pew.
You didn't find anything else that could've been,
hard drive, USB, anything.
We searched most of the house before the cops showed up.
Just got that lappy.
And this little gem.
Yeah, well maybe he was telling the truth.
Maybe Murphy didn't give it to him.
At least we won't have to go looking for him.
He'll come knocking soon enough.
She looks so beautiful.
She always did.
Where's her necklace?
I don't know.
Mr. Buckland...
I... I shouldn't have just dropped her off.
I should've waited until you got home.
It's not your fault.
Tori loved Cantea Youth Group.
Made her happy.
Yeah, she really liked it.
I...
Thanks.
She deserved better than this.
Yeah.
She did.
She looks just like her mum.
You don't remember me. do you.
We only met once.
I was a friend of Tori's nana.
I'm sorry.
No, don't be.
You were a lot younger then.
So was I.
But she was just a baby.
Even then I knew she was someone special...
...whose story isn't over, Logan.
You coming.
Suit yourself.
I remember when her mum gave her that thing.
The look in her eyes.
The lads are talking.
Didn't take them long.
I don't think they'll do anything till after the tangi.
But you want to have a chat with Murph,
just in case.
Will I?
Logan.
They will kill someone for this.
Probably.
And that's what you want?
You think that's what she wanted.
She sure as hell didn't want this!
What were they looking for, Murphy?
It's best you don't ask.
They killed my daughter.
Best you answer.
You remember that cop that got shot last year?
Well, they knew it was the Pouakai,
but they couldn't prove it.
But we got video footage of it,
starring the big man himself.
Cruz?
But it was Axe that pulls the trigger.
All right,
I'm sorry, man.
If I'd have thought for a second,
that this is what would've happened,
I never would have come by.
So what's the plan?
We can take care of this.
You stay here with your whanau.
Mourn your loss.
I've mourned enough.
Mad Bulls.
Logan...
...what's going on?
What do you think?
Logan,
you have to let this go.
They killed one of our own,
and you just want to let it go.
Look... out of respect for Tori,
- I don't think... - This is bigger than Tori now.
This is about honor.
Honor. Whose honor?
Tori's and Logan's or yours and the brotherhood's?
Logan is the brotherhood.
Sorry, Coop.
You don't have to be sorry.
You don't owe him anything.
He's right.
You don't owe me anything.
Never did.
All right...
you'll get over it.
You know they won't give up the fight.
And neither will we.
Gotta do what we gotta do.
That's right, my friend.
What the hell does he want?
Logan.
Can we talk?
Not really in a chatty mood tonight, sir.
- It's important. - Oy.
You heard the man.
You need to get the hell out of here.
I'm not looking for trouble.
Then you need to leave.
All right. I'll go.
I'll catch you in a few days, Logan.
Oy.
Forget him.
Forget who?

Ka pai girls,
it was beautiful.
Does anyone else have a waiata,
or something to share?
Everyone.
I'm Josh.
I met Tori about,
four months ago when she,
first started coming to our youth group.
She was a...
little forward at first,
but soon became part of the furniture.
In fact, it wasn't long before she was
bringing other people in,
making them feel welcomed and valued.
She loved it.
We all loved her.
I can't believe she's gone.
In times like these, it's...
It's easy to ask why.
Why do bad things happen to good people, and...
and to be honest, I don't know.
I don't know why she died.
What I do know,
is that she truly impacted
the world around her.
And that impact will have honored her absence.
I'd like to ask Jess
to come forward and tell you all her story.
Jess?
Tori...
Tori saved my life.
The night she died was the first time we'd met.
I'd never been to church before,
so I was pretty nervous.
But Tori made me feel like whanau.
She didn't know it,
but I had planned to kill myself that night.
And if it wasn't for her,
I wouldn't be here today.
♪ I'd never be lost ♪
♪ I am a sea ♪
♪ One of greatness ♪
Ka pai Jess.
Thank you for sharing.
Finally,
Logan, would you like to share?
Thank you for coming.
I know Tori meant a lot to you.
Tori was a good girl.
She was good to those around her...
...even when they weren't good to her.
She deserved a better life
than the one I gave her.
She deserved a better death...
...than the one they gave her.
Okay everyone,
let's finish with a karakia.
That should be me lying there.
Every part of me wants them to pay,
for what they did to her.
And they will pay.
I hear you're good with computers.
You reckon you can hack into this?
Then get to it.
You let me know as soon as you're in it.
Hey.
Keep an eye on that guy.
I don't want him snooping around on that thing.
You headin' out?
Yeah.
You want one of the boys to come with you?
No.
Murphy.
Yeah.
They're all here.
We all know why we're here.
Our revenge on the Pouakai needs to be swift,
and it needs to be permanent.
Permanent?
This is our chance to take control for good.
Revenge is one thing.
But a complete takeover, that's another.
Revenge isn't enough.
If we kill one of theirs,
they'll just kill another one of ours.
And we'll get nowhere.
The only way to stop them,
is to destroy them completely.
Now, we've been at war with the Pou for long enough.
It's time we take over this town,
and claim it, all of it,
- as Mad Bull turf. - Murphy,
we all want the same thing as you do,
but to take on the Pouakai,
I just don't think we have the resources,
or can ready the manpower.
We find a way
to weaken them first.
We attack the head.
You won't get near Cruz.
He's pretty well-protected.
Then we strike him where it hurts.
We hit his family.
Cruz doesn't have any family.
Yeah...
...he does.
You gonna leave without saying goodbye?
I thought you were sleeping.
I was.
Come.
Sit down.
It's nice to finally see you again.
Yeah, well...
I heard you weren't doing so good.
Oh, I'm fine.
They make these things out
to be much worse than they really are.
- Do you reckon? - I do.
I even manage to sneak out of here
every once in a while.
Aw, have I missed that smile.
Now,
tell me,
how are you?
I'm fine.
Are you?
Yeah,
had the flu a couple of weeks back,
but I'm good now.
Cruz, honey, I'm not your doctor,
how are you in here?
You know me, mum.
Yes I do.
In fact, I think I know you better than you know yourself.
Is that right?
Oh, I know you kept a lot of secrets from me,
about the world you live in.
But when I see you as the man you are today...
I see the man you will become.
The man you were born to be.
Yeah, I know, mum,
I'm a big disappointment to you.
But you know what,
I've done pretty good for myself.
I know you have, son,
I know you have.
But you can't take it with you, you know.
Yeah I know.
- Cruz. - Yeah, I know, Mum.
What does it profit a man if he gains the whole world,
and loses his soul.
Son.
After all this time...
...same old tune.
Cruz.
Sorry, Mum, too for losing my soul.
She's death on a stick out there, bro.
Logan.
Here Dad, this one's perfect.
Help me.
Ah!
Evening, Dad.
I was just in the neighborhood,
and thought I'd stop by.
How's it going?
I saw Mum today.
I'm sure she gets more critical,
the older she gets.
I could be wrong.
I don't think she approves of my life choices.
God knows why.
And now she doesn't get in the hole.
But I've done pretty damn well, you know.
You'd think she'd be proud of me.
I reckon you would have been proud of me.
You know, I don't blame you for leaving.
Sometimes I wish I could just...
...leave.
Cruz,
Cruz.
You shouldn't be out here without protection.
What do you want, Axe?
Slater cracked the laptop.
And you left him with it?
- Yeah, but I told him not to look at anything. - Idiot.
- Morning. - Yeah.
Got a moment?
Sorry for the early visit.
Thought I'd catch you before work.
I'm taking the day off.
I saw in the report, you said the only thing taken,
was Victoria's laptop.
Have you noticed anything else missing?
Just a necklace.
What sort of necklace?
A green stained cross.
It wasn't worth much.
It was her mother's.
Okay.
You also stated,
that you didn't recognize the voice on the phone.
That's right.
Look, I get the whole brotherhood thing.
But these guys are not your brothers.
These are your enemies.
You crack it?
Then we're done here.
Any luck, my bro?
There's a whole bunch of video files here.
I'll have to go through them.
You're gonna make sure the boys are sorted.
The boys make a move, I want to be ready.
Close that on your way out.
Uh, hi.
Well, I'm Victoria,
Tori for short.
And this is my video diary.
Um... Yeah.
So recently I've kind of turned over a new leaf,
and I figured, now is a great time to start doing that.
So yeah,
Day one,
the first day of the rest of my life, I guess.
Hello, Logan.
Logan.
It's okay, dear.
I'm not scared.
Death comes for us all.
The question is,
will you be ready for it, when it comes?
Unplug that thing.
We've gotta go.
Murphy, we've got to go.
Hey, you two, stop there!
I heard this great quote the other night.
Forgiveness is the key,
that unlocks a door of resentment,
and the handcuffs of hatred.
It is the power that breaks the chains of bitterness,
and the shackles of selfishness.
Man,
I definitely know what those chains felt like.
I spent most of my life angry and bitter,
and it ate me up.
But now those chains are gone,
and I'm free,
like, truly free.
Yeah.
What?
I'll be right there.
- What's going on? - I've got to go.
Keep an eye on that thing.
Sorry, sir,
this room's off limits.
That's my mother in there.
I'll need to see some ID.
Doc, how is she?
Mr. Taylor,
she's not in a good way.
Did she say who attacked her?
She won't say.
You can go in and see her.
She's been asking for you.
Mum.
Huh?
Is my boy?
Who done this to you?
It doesn't matter.
It matters to me.
You need to forgive them, Cruz.
You need to forgive everyone...
who's ever hurt you.
And you need to forgive yourself.
Me.
It wasn't your fault your father died.
You were just a boy.
Mum.
Huh?
Promise me you will forgive.
Something you need to see.
What's this?
Turn it on.
Seems Tori had a private YouTube account.
Some sort of video diary.
You hold onto that.
Uh, hi.
Well, I'm Victoria,
Tori for short.
And this is my video diary.
But things are getting better around here, you know.
I mean,
he still blames himself for Mum's death.
and fair enough, I guess.
You drive drunk and you kill the person next to you.
How could you not blame yourself?
But I forgive him.
And I can only hope he learns to forgive himself.
So I really hope he comes tonight.
I know church isn't really his scene,
but you never know, right?
I mean, who would have ever thought that I'd go to church?
Who would have ever thought that I would find God.
See, miracles do happen.
Hey, it's me.
- Tor. - Coming.
I've got to go.
See you tomorrow.
What's going on?
- Everyone else is all ready. - Ready for what?
Jack, bring the boys around here to the west gate.
But you wait for my signal.
There he is.
- We need to talk. - So where you been?
I had to sort my head.
You about done?
This is one fight you can't win, Murph.
You getting cold feet again, Logan?
Too late to back out now anyway.
Killing the old girl sealed the deal.
We don't even know if we killed her.
The boys are ready.
Game on.
This is one game I can't play.
You gotta do what you gotta do.
Reckon we can do this without him.
Tell the boys to roll out.
Left, left, try to fight, stay.
With the body, with the body.
Cut.
That's good work, boys, good, good, good.
Good work on your slap,
everything off the jab.
You gotta keep busy.
Okay, lads, take a break, yeah.
Good work.
I don't see a patch.
Coop.
- I owe you... - I told you.
You don't owe me anything.
Never have.
Thanks, Coop.
Why don't you unrope for a circuit.
Cruz.
You need to know about your mother...
I know.
I couldn't do it.
- So Murphy... - Murphy didn't kill her.
Cancer killed her.
He just sped things up a little.
Sorry, bro.
I guess we both need forgiveness.
Tori really has talked a lot about forgiveness.
It wasn't what she said that got me.
It was the look in her eyes.
She was truly free.
She changed a lot in the last four months.
She wasn't the same girl anymore.
She discovered the truth.
What truth?
The truth that she was forgiven.
And because she was forgiven...
she could forgive.
And it set her free.
Logan.
Murphy and the boys are about to hit the Pouakai.
Cruz, this is Paulie.
Paulie, you know who this is.
My bro here's a little nervous,
because he heard about your plan.
What plan?
Your plan to take out Murphy and me.
News to me.
So what's the deal? When are they planning to strike?
Tonight, before I saw it on the post pad.
Yeah, Murphy's a lot braver than I thought.
Stupid. Not brave.
Full on assault will end in a blood bath.
I think that's what he's going for.
We have to stop it.
Agreed.
You want me to come along?
Nah, bro. You stay here.
We got this.
Cruz.
Murphy's told me about that video file.
But straight up,
I don't have it.
Come on.
We got a war to stop.
I gotta sort things at mine.
You head back, I'll be right behind you.
Logan,
you know that plan we talked about,
for the Pou's to take you out.
Never heard of it before.
Alan, it's Logan.
I need your help.
Where's Axe?
We need to talk.
Oh. Sure it can wait.
No, Axe, it can't wait.
Get up.
Hey, leave that there.
You might want to go easy.
Mad Bulls are taking tonight.
Bring it on,
- 'bout time they made it... - Axe,
a full-on war.
Last man standing wins.
Then let's make sure we're the last men standing.
And the boys?
If they can't hold their own.
You don't care if they die?
Oh, and you do?
What's the matter, Cruz?
You getting soft on us since Mummy died.
That's right.
I knew your little secret.
I knew all along.
All that God stuff,
just as well she's dead.
Ah.
That's the Cruz we know and love.
We ain't going to war with the Bulls.
Yeah, we are.
Sorry, mate,
you're getting old.
And it's out with old...
and in with the new.
They're already gone.
Okay, listen, you stay here.
Paulie, stay here.
You think if you kill me, they gonna follow you.
I've been waiting a long time for this.
Hey, hurry up.
Not bad for an old man.
Go on.
Do it.
I ain't gonna kill you, Axe.
But it looks like you're gonna get your war.
Pouakai.
I've been leading you for nearly 20 years.
Tonight you're expecting me to lead you in this war.
But this ends,
right here,
right now.
This is not happening.
Yeah, it is.
Bet when you woke up this morning,
you didn't think that today was gonna be your last.
Death comes for us all, Murphy.
Question is,
are you ready when it comes?
I seem to remember your mother saying something like that.
Right before I killed her.
Say hi to her from me.
This has to stop.
You lied to me.
How else was I supposed to get you to come back?
We don't need him. Just say the word.
Killing him wasn't part of the plan.
Why not?
We killed his daughter.
And he's no good to us now.
You didn't kill Tori.
They killed Tori.
Looking for their video file.
There is no video file.
Start a fire...
you need a match.
And look at this baby burn.
Look, I didn't think they were gonna kill Tori for it.
That was...
unfortunate.
"Unfortunate."
Stop!
You want to listen to him?
He's weak.
Murphy.
It doesn't have to end like this.
Actually, Logan,
I think it does.
You gotta do,
what you gotta do.
This looks familiar.
Oh, yeah.
Like father,
like daughter.
Looks like I win.
Pulling a trigger ain't winning.
Get up fools, get up!
Aah!
Halt, police!
Keep your hands where I can see them!
Drop the gun!
Drop your weapon, get down on the ground!
Get down on the ground!
Thought you'd be out surfing.
'Bout to head out.
Just wanted to see how you're doing.
I'm surviving.
How's Cruz?
Recovering well.
You know, Logan...
she would be proud of you, man.
Well, I'm off.
Looks like a much better day for a wave.
You should go and enjoy it.
Alan.
Thanks.
I heard this great quote the other night.
Forgiveness is the key that unlocks the door of resentment,
and the handcuffs of hatred.
It is the power that breaks the chains of bitterness,
and the shackles of selfishness.
I definitely know what those chains felt like.
I spent most of my life angry and bitter,
but now those chains are gone.
And I'm free,
like, truly free.
