What happened

Bigger story: While unloading timber for a cash job in Nerang, Mark finds a demolition docket naming his father, Ray Hayes, as the thief who removed Reid Civicworks records from a Gold Coast demolition site. A clearance attached to the document demands that Ray surrender his house deed by noon or face private enforcement proceedings, tightening the screws when Mark's phone rings with a demand for immediate payment. Mark confronts Ray outside his fibro house, but Ray refuses to discuss the swimming file that may connect to Reid Civicworks. Mark decides he will find who signed the accusation, recover the missing records, and stop Reid before his father signs anything.
