Written by Matthew Williams
Directed by Kevin Carlin
Movie fever has hit Mt. Thomas with the arrival of two film producers, Rip and Jake Vaughan, intending to make a film about the town's local legend — 1880's bushranger Starvation O'Flynn. Meanwhile, one of the locals, Don Sparrow, is busy making a commercial for Keith Purvis and his new bulldozer "Big Rodney.", This piece of film-making has not, however, captured the minds and hearts of the people of Mt. Thomas the same way as the Vaughans' soon-to-be epic. PJ's detective antennae go off the minute he encounters the Vaughans. He doesn't like them at all, but is it because they could be criminals or because he doesn't appreciate them gazing into Maggie's eyes? PJ's suspicion of the Vaughans increases when petty thefts are reported on locations they have surveyed for the film. Are they using the film as a front for a burglary racket?
The crimes surrounding the Vaughans become more mysterious when Big Rodney is stolen and Don Sparrow goes missing. All fingers point towards Glenn Rowan, one of the Vaughans' employees. But when Don Sparrow is found beaten inside the stolen bulldozer the Heelers realise they have stumbled onto something much more complicated than a burglary racket. Dash realises that to solve the mystery behind the Vaughans they will have to look into the legend of O'Flynn himself. But will the Heelers' quick history lesson be enough to lead them to the truth behind the Vaughans' trip to Mt. Thomas?
