-A transformational vision... -$8.5 billion dollars for roads, rail and ports... -New infrastructure for the 21st century.

-It's gonna benefit future generations... -There is no future plan for Australia under this government... -Real projects, real money... -Major infrastructure projects right around the country... -...makes decisions for the long term... -We want to spend the money... -It's the biggest nation-building project... -Absolutely shovel-ready... -I want to be known as the infrastructure Prime Minister... -This is a nation-building... -Nation building... -Nation building.

-Nation building.

-And it was, um, it was just, that was how, how it was left from memory.

-Be that as it may, Mr.

Woodford, the scheme has clearly failed to deliver.

-Well, I'm not sure we'd use the word "failed."

-We did.

-Yeah, but not publicly.

I mean, it's true that some of the outcomes were less than optimal.

-To say the least.

-But with respect, Senator, I feel that some of the elements more than exceeded expectations.

-Could you give us one example?

-Yes.

Scotty?

-Oh.

-Uh, no, not that one.

-Oh.

-No, not -- where's the sheet I gave you this morning?

-Oh, yeah.

This one.

-Why would they want our flight details?

-Oh, the other one?

-Ah, here we go.

Yeah.

Uh...if you just bear with me for one minute.

-You don't have any checked luggage?

-No.

-We've got three hours.

Yep.

Same seats.

-Thank you.

-It's going well.

Hey, you did a good job.

-Yeah.

-Big ticks from the PM's office.

-Jim, we got hammered.

What are you talking about?

-You kept him out of it.

And they're appreciative.

-How did they know about that costing blowout?

-Yeah, I didn't think about that.

-Well, the car-enthusiast senator did.

-Yeah, well, they learn quick these days.

Hey, do you want to get some lunch on the way to the airport?

-Good idea.

-Tony?

-Just about had enough of this.

Eighteen months on that fucking project, a project I oppose.

God knows how many millions of dollars down the drain now, because you guys change your mind and then chase the next shiny toy down the road.

And yet again, I'm wheeled out as a human shield.

-So, are we still grabbing lunch?

-Katie, my Internet's still dropping out.

-Have you tried the foyer?

-No.

-Scott said there's a really good Wi-Fi signal next to the lifts.

-I need one in my office.

-We can move your office.

-We could get it fixed.

-We're still waiting on those new routers.

-[ Sighs ] -Oh, and, Nat, don't forget your Christmas cards.

-It's not even December.

-I've done mine.

-I'm gonna get you some new pens.

-I seriously can't do this anymore.

We're supposed to be making long-term plans.

-We do!

-We don't stick to them!

-Yeah, I'm hearing you.

-We do all the work, get all the ducks lined up, and then something else changes.

-I know how you feel.

It's like this reshuffle.

-What reshuffle?

-Did I not tell you about that?

-Are we getting a new minister?

-Maybe.

I'll keep you posted.

-Oh, Jim, I can't go on like this.

-You need a break.

-I was on a break.

I was in Byron Bay for less than 48 hours when you dragged me back for this thing!

-Well, I want you to go back there right now.

Recharge the old batteries, and I promise you won't hear from us.

-Okay.

-Can I give you some holiday reading?

No!

This can wait.

-We're going to lunch first.

♪♪ [ Cellphone ringing ] -Yeah, Katie.

Oh, beautiful.

Not a cloud in the sky.

Couldn't be better.

Yeah.

No, no.

Well worth it.

What's that?

Well, can't someone else do them?

And they have to be signed?

When do you need them by?

Okay.

Hi.

-Hi.

I, um, have to sign some documents that are being delivered by courier -- Woodford.

-I'll just check for you, sir.

Nothing here.

Oh.

Woodley?

-No.

Woodford.

It was an A4 package about this... -Oh, yes.

That's arrived.

-Great.

Where is it?

-Mr.

Woodley's room.

I'll give him a call.

-Okay.

[ Birds chirping ] -How's that?

-Great.

-Let me know if it's too hard.

-No, it's perfect.

[ Sliding door opens ] -I am so sorry.

-[ Sighs ] [ Relaxing instrumental music plays ] -And they want you to initial each page.

-[ Sighs ] -You're a bit tight.

-Um, Katie, why are we sending a card to A4 Office Logistics?

They sent one to us last year.

-Yeah, but who are they?

-I don't know.

Can I ask about staff presents?

-Don't we just do hampers?

-But we had that problem with the fruitcake containing nuts.

-So don't get hampers with food.

-Well, what will we get in them?

I don't know, bath salts?

-Nut-free?

-I don't think you can have nuts in salt.

-But you have salted nuts.

[ Music continues ] -Could you do these, as well?

-Why don't you decide?

-Can I show you some options?

-Wi-Fi's still not working.

-Oh.

Can we do it in the foyer?

-Why don't you print some out, and I'll look at them later?

-Great.

-Who's Aspire Solutions?

-I can check.

-Don't worry about it.

"All the best.

Thanks for everything."

-What we're going to do is lean forward on your front and focus on your breathing.

[ Birds chirping ] -What the Prime Minister terms a significant reshuffle... -Replacing federal-government ministers... -It does reset and refocus the government.

-The question remains, will it be better than the old... -The new cabinet will be sworn in on Tuesday.

-I am so sorry.

-It's not your fault.

It's the new minister.

-Jim said to call you.

-Sure.

Do we know who it is?

-Harper.

-All right.

-What's he like?

-Young, ambitious.

He's a real mover and shaker in the party.

-Any negatives?

-I just gave them to you.

He'll be here for six months, max.

-Well, that's a positive.

-No, he'll, um... He'll really want to get things going.

-Negative.

-Yes.

Yeah.

-And did you get to go for walks every day?

-I was only there for one.

-But did you go for a walk?

-Yes, to the business center.

I swear we get more every year.

-That's office, department, stakeholders.

-This is to me.

-Aren't you a stakeholder?

-Sort of.

-I think we should send it, anyway.

-Okay.

-Now, this is not urgent.

No need to do it until you're back from holidays.

-I am back.

-Until you're supposed to be back.

-Okay.

-Okay.

-Hey.

How was your break?

-Short.

-You got good weather.

-I'm not there.

-Yeah, sorry about that.

Just with the changes upstairs and Harper.

-I heard.

-He was angling for Sport, but that got snaffled.

Then there was Agriculture, but he was born in Newcastle, so they did a deal with Social Services, parked a junior minister there, and gave him Infrastructure.

It's a good result.

-Did he want Infrastructure?

-Nah, he was furious, but it solved everything else.

So, they've offered him Health next time, so he'll wear it.

-Mm.

-Tony, dinner tonight -- do you want the early sitting?

-Where?

-The Beach Hotel.

-I'm not in Byron.

-Oh, wow.

Lucky they rang.

-I've been thinking about what you said, and I want to make you an offer.

-Voluntary redundancy.

-No, no.

Hear me out.

I want to offer you a blank sheet.

Name your project.

-What?

-Well, you said it.

We go hot, we go cold.

The boss is embarrassed.

He actually tried to call you in Byron, but he got a Mr.

Woodley.

-Yes.

It's okay.

He doesn't need to call me.

-Well, you think about your number-one priority, and we will do everything we can to make sure it gets up.

-It's not the answer.

-What about that gas-pipeline thingy?

You say the word.

-See, this is the problem.

We keep searching for something new.

Gas pipeline or a solar-powered train.

Then halfway through, someone changes their mind or they read a poll, and we try and find something else.

-When you say solar-powered-- -It's a joke.

-Aah!

-We've got no clear priorities, no long-term strategy.

You want me to name a project?

-Sure.

-Okay.

We get this country's brightest minds together -- engineers, scientists, academics, economists.

Put them in one room for a week and focus on real solutions.

-All jokes aside, would a solar-powered train actually work?

-No.

-It's just that with renewable energy back on the table -- -We get them together.

Leave short-term political thinking at the door and come up with an infrastructure blueprint for the future of this country, a conference.

-You mean like a summit?

-No.

A conference.

-You wouldn't call it a summit?

-No!

-Do you mind if I do?

-Yes!

I want a conference.

Genuine experts, leaders in their fields, mapping out a long-term strategy.

-Okay.

-Okay.

-Leave it with me.

-That's it.

-Great!

This is the engine room.

-Great.

-Nation Builders!

-Oh, don't get up.

Just passing through.

-Oh, Minister!

[ Laughs ] -This is our CEO, Tony Woodford.

-Oh, Minister.

-Brad.

-Brad?

Tony.

-Jeff.

-Pleased to meet you.

-Likewise.

Great work in Canberra.

We owe you.

-Oh, thank you.

-Nat Russell, our chief operations officer.

-Minister.

-Please.

Brad.

-Oh.

-Minister, can I get you to hold that?

-Yeah.

How's that?

-[ Camera shutter clicks ] All right.

Now, let me just say this, folks.

When the Prime Minister came to me and said, "Brad, name your portfolio," I didn't have to think long.

Infrastructure was top of my list.

And it is a privilege to be a small part of such a dynamic organization.

Now, I intend to hit the ground running, and that means no mucking around -- -I'm sorry, Minister.

-Just bear with me.

Yeah.

Who?

No, that's not going to happen.

Well, who... Who told him that?

No.

Listen.

If that prick turns up to one more branch meeting, I'll have his balls for breakfast.

-You're not going to shoot this?

-All right, sorry about that.

Where was I?

-Breakfast.

-Okay.

Now, as far as I'm concerned, my work starts today.

I intend to hit the ground running.

I know it's a steep learning curve, but I think I'm in the right place.

Nation Building Australia!

Okay?

-Authority.

Authority.

-Sorry, Tony.

What was that?

We're actually called Nation Building Authority.

-Well, you shouldn't be.

It should be... It should be Nation Building Australia.

-Absolutely!

-Nation Building Australia.

-Right.

-I'll take care of it.

-We're away.

Did you hear that?

-Yep.

-That's the sound of hitting the ground running.

-Okay, -Great.

All right, let's go.

-All right, let the tour continue.

-Let's do it.

-Yep.

Brad.

How're you going?

Brad.

-These can also wait till you're back from holiday.

-I am back.

-We haven't told anyone.

-Seriously?

It's fine.

Sorry, who's Kyle, Bron, and All the Team?

-I'm not sure.

-Then why am I wishing them Merry Christmas?

-Just to be on the safe side.

Tony, did you get Rhonda's email?

-I'm not getting emails.

-Oh, that's because of the Wi-Fi upgrade.

-Why does every upgrade in this office seem to involve a downgrade?

-She wants to know can you meet today?

-What about?

-Uh, the summit?

-You mean the conference?

-She didn't mention a conference.

-I think that's what she meant.

-That reminds me.

-Yep?

-Someone from the resort rang.

Tonight's seafood banquet might be inside due to rain.

-Still talking about Byron Bay.

-Well, you might head back.

-I'm not there tonight.

-That's lucky.

It's raining.

-Yeah.

Who's Elensis Corporate Services?

-Um...I'd still do it.

-Okay.

-This is ridiculous.

[ Scoffs ] -Well, he must have been caught up.

-He called this meeting for 8:00.

-He wants to hit the ground running.

-Are we allowed to have a muffin?

-No.

-That was the minister's PA.

He's running late.

-Yeah, we know that, Katie.

-Even later -- there's been a crisis at his office.

-Do we know what?

-His office.

Apparently, he should have got the bigger one.

Anyway, he still wants to have the briefing.

-When?

-They didn't say.

-All right, let's all get on with our work.

Katie, can you let us know when he gets here?

-Sure.

-Where are you going?

-Foyer -- Wi-Fi.

-Oh, yeah.

-A little bit of sand and sun, I hear.

-Yeah, well, I was only there for a day.

-Oh, lucky you.

All right, now you're nice and rested.

Let's talk about this summit of yours.

-Conference.

-Apologies.

My mistake.

How many delegates are you thinking?

-Speakers.

-Hmm?

-Delegates sounds like they're representing the government.

-Yeah, but if we're putting on a summit-- -Conference -- speakers.

I want genuine, independent expertise.

-Any names in mind?

-Well, I'm working on a list -- mostly locals, a few internationals.

There's a guy from Vancouver I'd love to get.

International -- I like this.

-Jonah Friedman.

-Never heard of him.

-He's an urban engineer.

-Has he been on "Q+A"?

-No.

He's Canadian.

-Done a TED Talk?

-No.

-All right.

Captain's pick.

Let's put him on the list.

-Okay.

And while you've got your pen out, I had a thought for the conference name.

-Yeah, I'm all ears.

Hit me.

-Something like "Identifying, Prioritizing Infrastructure Needs/Challenges for the New Decade."

-Ooh, that's a little wordy.

-But it's accurate.

-I'll tell you what.

it's a good starting point.

-Okay.

-Nat, two things -- We've managed to find nut-free hampers.

-Great.

-But they contain gluten.

-I said no food.

-In the body wash.

-Who's gonna eat the body wash?

-Actually, we could just do what accounts are doing.

-Which is?

-Instead of gifts, everyone gets a donation made to their chosen charity.

-Are they happy with that?

-Furious.

They say it's not in the spirit of Christmas.

-Maybe not.

-I'll keep thinking.

-Katie, you said two things.

-Oh, yeah, the minister's here.

-Oh, what poll is this?

No, no, no, no way.

You tell that little shit he only got preselection because of me.

So, if he wants to cozy up to the Drys, good luck.

-Why didn't you tell me?

-Muffin?

-Okay, today.

Right.

Pat's here.

-I am so sorry, Minister.

-Let's make a start.

Over to you, Pat.

-Nat.

-Yeah.

-Thank you, Minister.

As you've requested, we've put together a summary of all of our current projects.

-Excellent.

Let's hit the ground running.

-They've broken into the key areas -- transport, water, energy.

-Mm.

-Mm.

-Is there something wrong?

-Well, bridges, channel deepening, a synchrotron?

-Yes.

-A bit tired.

-A synchrotron?

-What's next year's synchrotron?

-It's still a synchrotron.

-Is that solar-powered train in here?

-The what?

-The minister's just looking for some fresh thinking.

-You know what?

Let's just step back a bit, okay?

Look over the horizon.

-Yeah.

-Long-term vision, blank sheet.

What can we do in the next six months?

-Six months?

-Or sooner?

-Give me something announcement-ready.

[ Cellphone vibrating ] Oh, you jerk!

Sorry, Pat.

I've just got to take this.

Yeah.

What's he want?

He's in his first term.

Does he want to move up the ticket or not?

Uh, guys, a couple minutes.

-Oh, yes.

Of course.

-Yeah.

No.

Go on.

-If you could make a start.

-That's -- this is... -They said that the whole association would get -- -Here you are.

-Ah, welcome.

-Karsten?

-I thought it might be useful to get Karsten's perspective.

-Sure.

-Very exciting, Tony.

A nation-building summit.

-A conference.

-Now, perhaps we should start with the most important question.

-Who we invite?

-I was thinking venue.

-See, this is why we bring him in.

-No, but this is your idea, so let's go with that.

Who are you thinking that we should invite?

A blank sheet.

-Yeah, well, I've actually started a list.

Did you get my email?

-No.

-We're having problems with Wi-Fi.

I've actually got a copy.

-Oh, wonderful.

Well, we can add this to our list.

-Yeah, I just hope they're all free in March.

-March?

-Yes.

-This coming March?

-When were you thinking?

-Later in the year or the year after.

-What?

-These people are pretty hard to get.

-Well, get other people.

-What?

-Well, I think the priority is we make the summit happen.

-Definitely.

It's a wonderful idea, Tony.

-He looks angry.

-Might still be having problems with his office.

-A blank sheet?

What does he want?

-Fresh thinking.

-He wants to hit the ground running.

-He hasn't even touched the muffins.

-Yeah, I reckon we forget about the muffins.

-Yeah.

There's four types.

-Let's talk venue.

Where were you thinking?

-Well, I was thinking Sydney at the Conference Centre.

-Mm.

-I think we can be grander.

-What do you mean?

-I think he means why fly in the best and brightest from around the world and then stick them in a conference center?

-Because it's a conference.

-Think of the photo opportunity.

-What?

-It's the opening ceremony.

-Sorry?

-Where do you want to see your delegates?

-Speakers.

In a conference center.

-Uluru.

-Yes, please.

-No!

-The Great Barrier Reef?

-I love it!

-Oh, on a tiered pontoon.

-See, this is exactly what I'm trying to avoid.

-What?

Warm weather?

-Photo opportunity?

-No, style dictating substance.

-Oh, all right.

Substance.

Um, the Old Parliament House.

-It makes it political.

-It needs to resonate, Tony.

-Okay.

What's the name of that train?

-Oh, is this the solar-powered one?

-No, no, the one that travels across Australia.

-Bzzz!

The Ghan.

-Yes.

Okay.

The Ghan.

All of our delegates traveling and solving problems, announcing plans at whistle-stops.

-We're not doing this on a train.

-Okay, bear with me.

What's the... what's the biggest piece of infrastructure ever built in Australia?

-Oh, Snowy Mountain Hydro Scheme.

-Interesting.

-Hang on.

-A symbolic venue.

-Rhonda, it's in the mountains.

-Oh!

Is anyone thinking what I'm thinking?

-I very much doubt it.

-Tell us, Karsten.

-The Summit on the Summit.

-I love it!

You've done it again.

-Sorry about that.

The reshuffle party room's a bit restless.

So, where were we?

-Current projects.

-Okay.

I want to know what's the next big project for this office?

-We're putting in a new Wi-Fi network.

-Hugh, I think the minister's referring to major projects.

If we could just go back to the list, sir.

-Sure.

Okay.

Just help me out, Pat.

What's our big-ticket item here?

-I guess it would be the Darwin port upgrade.

That's it there.

-Oh, yeah.

Okay.

Yeah, I've heard about this.

-We've been going at it for about 18 months now.

-Great.

-Excellent.

-It's all about Asian engagement.

-Well, that's perfect.

When do we announce?

-It's been announced.

-Again, stale.

-Yeah.

-What else?

-Uh, there's the Melbourne Metro tunnel.

-Yeah.

That's started.

-There's still a lot of work to be -- -Well, let's just keep drilling down, okay?

Have you got anything here for Queensland?

-Q-Connect.

-What's Q-Connect?

-Hugh, that's nowhere near ready.

-Well, that sounds like exactly the sort of project I'm talking about.

Has it been announced?

-No.

-It's perfect.

What is it?

-It's very early days, sir.

It's basically a proposal connecting regional areas to the electricity grid.

-That sounds like something we should be looking at.

-How do you spell Q-Connect?

-"Q," just the letter "Q."

-Oh, sorry.

I've got to get this.

-Oh, that's fine.

Do you want us to... -Oh, yeah.

Would you mind?

Actually, maybe give me ten.

-Great.

-Connect.

-Mike?

Yeah, yeah.

What are the numbers?

-Just a couple of bullet points on Q-Connect.

-Katie?

All my cards done.

-Done?

-Yep.

Unless you want me to start on next year's.

-What'd you say to Kyle, Bron, and All the Team?

-Oh, you know, "Merry Christmas, all the best."

-It's nice.

-Yeah.

I'm heading down to the coffee shop.

-Oh, I can make you one.

-No, I need their Wi-Fi.

-Oh.

Do you have a moment to look at Rhonda and Karsten's list of delegates?

-Speakers.

-For the summit.

-For the conference?

Sure.

-Uh...uh, I've lost it.

Actually, I'll come with you.

-No, you know what?

Why don't you get them to come and see me later in the day?

-She and Karsten are looking for venues.

-Well, when they get back.

-From Mount Kosciuszko?

-Yep.

-I can't believe you mentioned that.

-He wanted fresh ideas.

-Q-Connect?

It's barely passed a thought bubble.

There's no business case, E.I.S.

We haven't lined up a single investor.

-He liked it.

-How many bullet points does he want?

-For all our sakes, let's hope he forgets about it.

-How do you spell that?

-Q.

-Yep.

-Stop.

-What?

-I've got Wi-Fi.

-I'll get my computer.

-Nothing here.

-There was yesterday.

-Oh, hey, I've got some here.

No, I've lost it.

-Try this.

-Yeah?

-Click on "Networks."

-Yeah.

-Scroll down.

-Mm-hmm.

-There's a network.

-Commonwealth Bank.

-It's got a really strong signal.

And I know the password because I've got a friend who works -- -I'm not stealing someone's broadband, even if it is a bank.

God, it's strong.

All right.

What's the password?

-I'll get it.

-There he is.

Exciting news.

Summit on the Summit.

-You realize it's at Mount Kosciuszko?

-PM's right on board.

He's going to land in a Chinook.

Might even... -Great.

-He does have one concern.

-Really?

-What was the general theme again?

-I told you identifying, prioritizing infrastructure needs.

-He loves that.

-Mapping out long-term strategies.

-That too.

-Taking some decisions out of the hands of politicians.

-That's the bit.

-Yeah, Jim, if this is going to be a meaningful exercise -- -Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

-You said.

You promised me.

-You said -- -Hey, hey, hey.

What's the timeframe again?

-We agreed -- for the next decade.

-Yeah.

PM's right.

It feels a bit short-term.

-A decade?

-It sort of commits him.

-Isn't that the idea?

-Could we think longer term?

-Fifteen years?

-Longer.

-Twenty?

-Does it have to be this century?

-What?

Yep.

-You ready?

-Yeah.

-"C."

-Yeah.

-"B."

-Mm-hmm.

-"A."

-Yep.

-That's it.

-Oh, Nat, have you been online this morning?

-I'm still not getting Wi-Fi.

-What do you mean, "development"?

-I think you'd better come.

-This is gross.

-Here it is.

Not for the people of Queensland.

-He's announced it?

-ABC Brisbane this morning.

He goes on.

-He's got no idea what he's talking about.

-Didn't stop him talking about it.

-He had three bullet points, actually four.

-I gave him one.

-I'm pretty happy with all these names.

-Mm.

Oh, yeah.

-If we can get them.

-Yep?

-Come in.

-What's this?

-Official Summit costume.

Karsten's had an idea for the photo.

-We line up all of the summiteers.

-The what?

-The delegates.

-On horseback in this, all 150 of them.

-150?

There was only 30 names on my list.

-Yes.

We thought your list was a little narrow, so... -Can I have that, please?

-...we've tried to broaden the range of delegates.

-Nicole Kidman?

-Fingers crossed.

-What does she know about infrastructure?

-Didn't she once play a scientist?

-She did?

Yeah.

Oh, that might have been Naomi Watson.

-Ita?

-Did you not see "Paper Giants"?

-Gripping Australian TV.

-What's Tom Burlinson doing on this list?

-Who better to sing the national anthem than our Tom?

-Nat?

-Oh, um, anything.

Sushi?

-Could it be a wrap?

-Why?

-The sushi place doesn't have Wi-Fi.

-Okay, make it a wrap.

-The usual?

Lettuce, tomato, no mayo.

-Great.

-Oh, and the minister's here.

-Kat-- -What's my point?

There seems to be no one here with any infrastructure experience.

-Scotty Cam.

-See?

You're being ridiculous.

-What happened to my names?

-Well, let's add them to the list.

-They're on the list.

They keep getting bumped off.

-There's only so many horses, Tony.

-You know what?

I think we're getting bogged down.

We can come back to this.

Let's move on with the schedule.

Karsten?

-Okay, thank you.

Rhonda.

Okay.

Now, as you can see, "blue" is confirmed.

"Red" is a maybe, and "green" is provisional.

-Provisional on what?

-On whether Hugh Jackman can make it for the opening ceremony.

-It's "Wolverine 5."

They're shifting around some dates.

Now, as you can see, we've moved the arrival function to Thursday afternoon.

That's followed by drinks and then the official reception.

-When do we actually start discussing anything?

-The formal dinner.

-Without food and beverage being involved?

-Ah, okay.

Well, summit kicks off Friday morning early with breakfast.

Casual coffee.

-What happened to my plenary sessions?

-We didn't know what they were.

-So, we replaced them.

-With?

-Brunch.

Informal setting.

-Which I think sounds very plenary.

-You're kidding me.

-Well, we've all got to eat.

-You squashed my entire conference into half a morning.

-Starting very early.

-And finishing by lunch.

-At lunch with the "Farewell to Summiteers."

-Jack Thompson reciting the entire "Man from Snowy River."

-Fingers crossed.

-I am so sorry again.

I just... -Oh, that's fine.

Don't worry about it.

It's totally fine.

Okay, so what have you got for me?

-Well, as I mentioned, we're still very much at a preliminary phase.

But here is the original brief, the scoping study.

-Sorry.

What's this for?

-Q-Connect, the Queensland electricity project.

-Yeah, I've announced it.

-Yes.

-Well... -Well, moving forward to the implementation phase, I assumed you wanted a briefing.

-No.

-Sorry.

Um... Then what did you want to see me about?

-Do you have anything for W.A.?

-Perth.

-Yeah.

Perth.

'Cause if a solar-powered train is going to work anywhere... Anyway, you know what?

Blank sheet.

It's all yours.

-Okay.

-Okay?

-I reckon... -Yeah, yeah, of course.

Okay.

Thank you, Pat.

-The Urban Water Security Strategy?

-It's been announced.

-Fremantle bypass?

-I think it's been canceled.

-Could he announce that?

-No.

Scott, do you want to sit down?

-Can't.

Wi-Fi signal.

-How's it going?

-We're trying to think of something the minister can announce.

-Apart from his retirement.

-We'll keep searching.

-Yeah.

Good luck with that.

-Hey, how's the conference looking?

-Don't ask.

-I just did.

-I'm thinking of pulling the pin.

-Really?

-It's been a complete waste of time.

The only thing I've actually achieved this week is finishing all my Christmas cards.

-Oh.

-What do you mean "oh"?

-You remember, right?

The name change?

Nation Building Australia?

New cards.

-Katie?

Fresh pens.

-The summit?

-I'm sorry, Jim.

I've made up my mind.

-You can't pull the pin now.

It's going so well.

-It's going off the rails!

-The PM loves it.

Towards 22C.

-What?

-Your new name.

-When did it get a name?

-Are you not getting my emails?

-Scotty, can you take my laptop to the toilets and press "send" and "receive"?

22C?

-It's good, huh?

-Sounds like an airline seat.

What's it mean?

-22nd century.

We're planning for the next century.

-What happened to the next decade?

-I think we needed a longer-term vision.

-You said anything I want.

-Yeah.

-And I wanted a meaningful discussion about our infrastructure needs.

-And what's this?

-A celebrity brunch.

Jim?!

-Tony.

Trust me.

We'll keep a lid on all this.

But 22C will deliver.
