00:03 Chugga, chugga, chugga, chugga.
00:04 Big black engine coming through.
00:07 Josh, I've started an amateur drama club at lunchtime.
00:10 Well, there's four of us, so it's not-- it's not big.
00:13 But still.
00:16 Why are you asking me?
00:17 I just thought it might be something you'd enjoy.
00:19 Five things, five things, five things, five things.
00:22 Food.
00:23 Bread.
00:26 Yes.
00:28 I think you should coach the team.
00:31 Oh, a homo.
00:32 Was that a question or a statement?
00:34 What?
00:35 You know, was it a question like, am I a homo,
00:37 or was it a statement like, you're a homo?
00:40 Performing arts sounds like a secure career move.
00:44 Madigan says I'm a good actor.
00:46 Oh, does he?
00:46 And you are not crap, Josh.
00:49 Whoa.
00:51 Any behavior that threatens our ideal will not be tolerated.
00:55 Prambo, come join us.
00:57 I'm not really much more of a sitter.
01:01 You can't be like that.
01:03 Out here is the real world.
01:04 It's different, so you've got to be different.
01:09 I didn't know all that about your people.
01:11 Darling, they're your people too.
01:14 You know how to work that thing?
01:16 Yeah, I think so.
01:25 Joshua chose to disobey my instructions.
01:28 You nearly sabotage everything.
01:29 We were protesting.
01:30 I told you you get expelled from school.
01:32 I hate that school.
01:34 I'm a Maori surrounded by white kids.
01:37 You don't know what it feels like to not fit in.
01:40 It's hard, and you can't do the thing that makes you you.
01:46 You've got one job, love.
01:47 You do whatever I need you to do to keep this family together.
01:52 We have the whole world watching us right now,
01:54 and we can't waste this moment.
01:56 Josh is a really tricky kid to get to know.
01:58 It's when he's performing that we get the best insight
02:00 as to who he really is.
02:01 We all have our stories.
02:12 They're not there to pull us down.
02:15 They're there to push us forward.
02:16 You know this way's faster, right?
02:21 I think I've ruptured my gluteus maximus.
02:24 It is impossible to rupture your ass.
